Weiss, K. Whaler
Institution: University of California Berkeley
Summary: Mars'' crustal magnetization is unique and enigmatic. It is pertinent to Mars science questions as diverse as the structure of the interior and the evolution of climate. To study it, we recommend 1) extending the MAVEN mission, 2) rover-mounted surface magnetometers and 3) oriented sample return.
Panel Selection: Mars: Not Phobos and Deimos.

Wednesday, July 30, 2003JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (July 30, 2003) - David Yates, a highly rated right-handed pitcher/first baseman from Douglasville, Ga., has committed to play baseball for East Tennessee State beginning in the 2004 season, Buccaneer head coach Tony Skole announced Wednesday afternoon. Yates, a powerful athlete at 6'6 and 230 lbs., was a three-year baseball letterwinner at Landmark Christian High School in Fairburn, Ga. As a junior in 2002, the Atlanta-Journal Constitution named Yates to the Fulton County All-Star Team after going 7-1 on the mound and hitting .450 with 27 RBI. He led the Eagles to a runner-up finish in the region and to the second round of the state playoffs. As a senior, he batted .480 with seven home runs and was 7-2 as a pitcher. He led Landmark Christian to the regional championship and to the third round of the state tournament. Following the season, he was named all-area by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. After both his junior and senior seasons, he was rated by Baseball America as one of the top pitching prospects in the state of Georgia. "We are very fortunate to add David to this year's recruiting class," said Skole. "He is a young man who has a huge upside and could really develop into a special player. David is very athletic and will be a factor as a pitcher and as a hitter. He possesses tremendous power at the plate and is a strike-thrower on the mound. David is a great student and a fine young man. He will be a tremendous asset to the ETSU campus community." Yates is the ninth commitment that the Buccaneers have received for next season's recruiting class. He joins outfielder Richie Billings (Leesburg, Fla.), first baseman Ryan Spriggs (Crossville, Tenn.), third baseman Greg Roberts (Douglas, Ga.), infielder Josiah Glafenhein (Corryton, Tenn.), right-handed pitcher/outfielder Caleb Glafenhein (Corryton, Tenn.), right-handed pitcher/outfielder Stephen Douglas (Kennesaw, Ga.), outfielder Matt Haynes (Cumberland, Ky.) and pitcher Brandon Summey (Kingsport, Tenn.).

Best Coat Ever!
I live in Southern CA so I don't get to use this coat every day during the winter but I love when I do! It's snuggly warm and comfortable, and the longer length is perfect too. Love the olive color too!Read More
Too Large
Size was not as expected and the fit very unflatteringRead More
Great jacket and very warm for NY WINTERRead More
Lots of details
So much detail on this coat, you might ask WHY? HA. Warm and comfortable.Read More
Great coat
I wore this all winter and couldn't be happier with it. Very warm, and it looks nice as wellRead More
Wow.. Really great!
Before I made my purchase I read and re-read all the reviews on this Tommy Hilfiger down-filled jacket and other Michael Kors, Kenneth Cole, etc. variations bc I wanted the best quality, most flattering and cost-effective option. I thought long and hard about writing this review and know that you'll find mine most helpful. Now, I'm only 5'2" and 140lbs, not top heavy and have a lil belly 'n booty. I purchased the medium eventho I fall about 1-2" larger than the Overstock.com size chart notes and the jacket fits me great, so I would say it runs very slightly bigger, but really it is true to size (I think the Overstock.com size chart actually runs a little small). I feel like I can wear light to medium weight sweaters underneath and the zipper is dual ended, which is a huge help bc the coat is long and you don't want to be restricted like a sausage, esp. if you're a little hippy/have a booty. I completely agree with the other review writers in regard to quality- it has really classy argyle print piping and is mostly fabric lined. Also, I went with Tommy Hilfiger as it has 60/40% down/waterfowl filling-- not as great as 100% down, but better than ***** % and price! Give this coat a try, you won't be disappointed, just know your body measurements!Read More

Thank you for your interest in the Tommy Hilfiger Women's Down-Filled Jacket. The measurement of the length is taken from the center of the back collar down to the hem and for a Large size is 38 to 40 inches long. Thank you for shopping with us at Overstock.com.
Hi, What is the fill power of this jacket? I want to know how warm it is and whether it will work in my climate (northern Indiana). Also, I'm 5'4", 32D chest and weigh 109 lbs. What size would you recommend? I am not from the US so not too sure about the sizes here. I want it to fit well and I should be able to wear a sweater underneath. I was thinking small, but what do you think? Thanks
I think small size will be good on you. This coat is very warm. I do not know how cold is the winter weather in Indiana, but I am pretty sure it is warm enough. This coat well done and light weight. I recommend this coat.
The description on the product says the filling is 50% down/50% feather. Description on the web is not true.
Hi, I'm 5", a size 7/8 waist, but a 38D chest. I'm debating between medium and large. Help? I want it to fit in a slimming way, but not smoosh my chest.
Hi jevalove, it is a tough call with your measurements we feel you might be too smooshed with a medium. At the same time a large might not be as slimming as you are hoping for. We recommend large for a proper fit. Thanks for shopping with us.
I would probably get a large too. You can cinch the belt tighter.
I think you should buy M. I bought this coat for my sister and she usually buy lg or size 10/ This coat fits perfectly/ Lg is going way way to big on you.
What is best size for me? I am 38; 35; 42.
Well, I am between size 12-14 and the Large fit perfect on me!
I think the perfect size for you would be the large.
I'd say a large.
I have this coat in black and the neck piece that snaps on got lost. Is there a way I can replace it?
We are sorry but would not have replacement pieces for this coat.
6 ft - 34-20-32 ... what size would fit or is it too short?
It would come past your mid thigh, probably almost to your knee. I am 5 5" and it comes to my mid knee at a small.
What is the minimum degree to comfort wear?
We will look into this and hope to have more information as soon as possible.
I am wondering the same thing. I live a few miles outside of Fargo, ND....winters can be brutal here. I am looking for a warm winter coat. What is the minimum degree??
Hello dreamywaters, This coat can be worn in as low as 25 degree weather. Thank you for shopping with us.

By age two and a half, your child should have all his primary (or baby) teeth, including the second molars, which usually erupt between twenty and thirty months. His secondary (or permanent) teeth probably won't start coming in until he's six or seven, although it's quite normal for them to arrive a little earlier or later than this.
During this process of "teething," your child may experience some signs and symptoms including:
Although teething does not cause the above, it is recommended that you consult with your child's pediatrician if the condition persists. Some children while teething may experience irritation in their gums and respond by chewing on objects. Therefore it may be helpful that teething rings and other objects handled by the child be wiped down and kept clean, thereby reducing any infections.
As you might guess, the number-one dental problem among preschoolers is tooth decay. Approximately one out of ten two-year-olds already have one or more cavities; by age three, 28 percent of children do; by age five, nearly 50 percent of children do. Many parents assume that cavities in baby teeth don't matter, because they'll be lost anyway. But that's not true. Dental decay in baby teeth can negatively affect permanent teeth and lead to future dental problems.
The best way to protect your child's teeth is to teach him good dental habits. With the proper coaching he'll quickly adopt good oral hygiene as a part of his daily routine. However, while he may be an enthusiastic participant, he won't yet have the control or concentration to brush his teeth all by himself. You'll need to supervise and help him so that the brush removes all the plaque—the soft, sticky, bacteria-containing deposits that accumulate on the teeth, causing tooth decay. Also, keep an eye out for areas of brown or white spots which might be signs of early decay.
By this age you should be helping your child brush her teeth two times a day with a child-sized toothbrush that has soft bristles. There are brushes designed to address the different needs of children at all ages, ensuring that you can select a toothbrush that is appropriate for your child. At this age you can start using a pea-size amount of fluoride toothpaste, which helps prevent cavities. If your child doesn't like the taste of the toothpaste, try another flavor or use plain water. Also try to teach your child not to swallow it, although at this age they are often still too young to learn to rinse and spit. Swallowing too much fluoride toothpaste can make white or brown spots on your child's adult teeth.
You'll hear all kinds of advice on whether the best brushing motion is up and down, back and forth, or around in circles. The truth is that the direction really doesn't matter. What's important is to clean each tooth thoroughly, top and bottom, inside and out. This is where you'll encounter resistance from your child, who probably will concentrate on only the front teeth that he can see. It may help to turn it into a game of "find the hidden teeth." Incidentally, a child cannot brush his teeth without help until he's older—about six to eight years old. So be sure to supervise or do the actual brushing if necessary.
Besides regular toothbrushing, your child's diet will play a key role in his dental health. And, of course, sugar is the big villain. The longer and more frequently his teeth are exposed to sugar, the greater the risk of cavities. "Sticky sugar" foods such as sticky caramel, toffee, gum, and dried fruit—particularly when it stays in his mouth and bathes his teeth in sugar for hours—could do serious damage. Make sure to always brush your child's teeth after a sugary food item. In addition, do not allow your child to have any sugar-containing liquid in a sippy cup for a prolonged period.
During regular well-child visits, the pediatrician will check your child's teeth and gums to ensure their health. If she notices problems, she may refer your child to a pediatric dentist or a general dentist with an interest in treating the dental needs of children. Both the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommend that all children establish a "dental home" by age one.
As part of her dental checkup the dentist will make sure all teeth are developing normally and that there are no dental problems and give you further advice on proper hygiene. She also may apply a topical fluoride solution to provide extra protection against cavities. If you live in an area where the water is not fluoridated, she may prescribe fluoride drops or chewable tablets for your toddler. For more guidance on fluoride supplements, talk to your pediatrician.

J Yarsagumba is the world's most expensive medical fungus. It goes by the nickname "Himalayan Viagra" because of its supposed libido-boosting power. In China, Yarsagumba goes for as much as $100 per gram, making it more expensive than gold.
It is also in serious decline. A new study warns that overharvesting in Nepal is driving the fungus to the brink of collapse.
Yarsagumba, also known as the caterpillar fungus, is an exotic species that grows high in the mountains of the Himalayas. The booming economy of China has been a boon to impoverished Nepalese harvesters. Many Chinese see the caterpillar fungus as a symbol of wealth and power, and as a result Yarsagumba "has enjoyed unprecedented popularity," Kamaljit Bawa, who co-authored the study, told Nature.com. The fungus is well known to scholars of traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine, where it is prescribed for a wide range of conditions including impotence, asthma and cancer.
The study, published in the journal "Biological Conservation," pegs the Yarsagumba trade at between $5 billion and $11 billion per year.
But the ecosystem of the Nepalese and Tibetan mountains is a fragile one. Already, researchers have found a steep decline in the amount of caterpillar fungus being harvested. The study looked at Dolpa, in western Nepal, home to 60,000 harvesters responsible for roughly 40 percent of the country's fungus yield.

Buccaneer Baseball rallies to defeat Western Carolina, 4-3
Sunday, April 04, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Apr. 4, 2004) - East Tennessee State scored two clutch runs to take the lead in the bottom of the seventh, then held on to defeat Western Carolina, 4-3, in Southern Conference baseball action Sunday afternoon from Cardinal Park in Johnson City, Tenn. The game began as a pitchers duel, as WCU starter Derrick Hawk and Buccaneer sophomore lefty Steven Calicutt (Spartanburg, S.C.) cruised through the first few innings. But the Catamounts (14-17, 4-8 SoCon) would break through with a run in the top of the third as second baseman Todd Roper hit a two-out triple and was singled home by third baseman Chris Davis. WCU extended their lead to 2-0 with another run in the top of the fifth. Shortstop Wayne Kilmer was hit by a pitch with one out then moved to second as Davis was hit by a pitch with two down. Catcher Denver Edick then laced a double down the left field line to score Kilmer. East Tennessee State rallied for single runs in the fifth and sixth to tie the game. Sophomore second baseman Josiah Glafenhein (Knoxville, Tenn.) led off the fifth with a double to right, then advanced to third on a ground out by junior designated hitter Ryan Spriggs (Crossville, Tenn.). Glafenhein later scored on an infield single by freshman first baseman David Yates (Douglasville, Ga.). In the sixth, senior shortstop Andy Howdeshell (Maryville, Tenn.) walked with one out then advanced to second on a hit-and-run single to left by freshman outfielder Stephen Douglas (Kennesaw, Ga.). Glafenhein then continued his torrid weekend with an RBI single to left field. The Bucs continued their momentum, taking the lead in the bottom of the seventh. Junior third baseman Justin Clear (Lafollette, Tenn.) led off the inning with an infield single. Senior Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.), who pinch-ran for Clear, then advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by sophomore center fielder Matt Traylor (Knoxville, Tenn.), and to third on a wild pitch. Following a walk by sophomore right fielder Shane Byrne (Johnson City, Tenn.), junior catcher Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.) reached on a fielder's choice to score Turner with the go-ahead run from third. It was a pivotal play in the game, as Moore hustled down the line to beat out what could have been an inning-ending double-play. After advancing to second on a single by Howdeshell, Moore scored ETSU's final run of the game on an RBI single by Douglas. Western Carolina made one final comeback attempt with Moore on the mound in the ninth. With one out, Kilmer hit a solo homer over the right field wall to cut the Buccaneer lead to just one. But Moore recorded the second out on a fly ball and senior third baseman Troy Moock (Baton Rouge, La.) snared a line drive for the final out of the game. Calicutt (3-4) was sharp on the mound, earning the win while turning in one of his best performances of the year. He went seven innings and allowed two runs on seven hits while walking two and striking out one. Moore picked up his fifth save of the season, allowing one run on one hit in the ninth inning. "After losing two games yesterday, we needed a good pitching performance," said ETSU head coach Tony Skole following the game. "That is exactly what Steven Calicutt gave us today." Catamount reliever Brian McCullen (0-3) was charged with the loss after allowing three runs on four hits in 1.2 innings pitched. Glafenhein and Douglas led the Bucs at the plate, each going 3-for-4 on the afternoon. Glafenhein also scored a run and drove in another. Roper and Edick paced the Catamounts with two hits each. ETSU returns to action as they travel to Knoxville, Tenn. Wednesday night to face in-state rival Tennessee at 7 p.m.

Gallery: Lindal Homes Puts a Green Twist on the Classic A-Frame
The two pitched-roof MAF homes are the three bedroom A3 1200 and the two bedroom A2 1500, which are 1,200 and 1,500 sq ft respectively. Lindal's new designs are compact, bold, and feature full-height glass walls, loft space (in one of the models), and the same no-nonsense building process that the original A-frame house was known for. The pitched versions evoke a sense of tradition, but with enough modern sensibility to keep you from feeling like you're stuck in the past.
Both of the pitched-roof designs have small footprints and pack a lot in, making the most of the space with open floor plan kitchens and living spaces. The A3 1200 is a ground level home featuring two bedrooms paired together (one of which could be turned into an office. The master bedroom and bath are separated by a breezeway entry. The A2 1500 has only two bedrooms, but places the second bedroom on an elevated level lofted above the living area.
The homes are constructed with quick-growing Western Red Cedar and engineered wood for the framing and beams. The exterior can be finished with Hardiplank fiber cement siding or pre-stained (with low VOCs, of course) cedar siding. Lindal's local dealers, most of whom are NAHB Certified Green Professionals, make sure to orient each home properly according to the site and optimum solar conditions. The dealer also helps each home owner pick out and source interior finishes according to their own taste, budget and desire for eco-friendly materials. The pitched roofs can easily accommodate a solar electric or hot water system and a rainwater catchment system.

As an architecture student, i have to wonder… who ever called this an A-frame? sure, the roof line comes in to a peak, that doesn't make it so. there is a specific advantage to the a-frame roof, it is to, in places of extreme snow and rain, shed that excess weight quickly from the roof so that it doesnot cave in. often, the roof itself is, or is close to being, the actual exterior wall of the house, lending to its name. the pitch of an A-frame roof is much steeper than that 5/12 i see in the computer renderings there. more like 16/12 to 24/12 and sometimes more(inches, rise/run of the slope)
BUT, i do like to see people try new things. im all for breaking up the lines and such, they look awesome, but an A-frame house has a specific purpose, and if you cant answer the problem it solves, it does not count as an A-frame
September 24, 2010 at 2:08 pm
This is not an A-frame.
September 23, 2010 at 1:22 pm
Building a "green" home is more than just what type of materials and windows are used, yet from a window standpoint Lindal's LowE366 argon-filled insulated windows are the best available, far exceeding Energy Star requirements.
Many of the factors to consider when building green start BEFORE the home is built, such as orientation to the sun to take advantage of solar gain during the winter to help heat the home (when the sun streams in at a low angle) and utilizing large overhangs to shade those same windows when the sun is high in the sky in the summer months.
Lindal supplies only the building materials package (which is enough to qualify our homes at the ANSI National Green Building Standard Bronze level) however most of our dealers are Certified Green Professionals and can help the homeowner make the right decisions throughout the planning and building process (and beyond) in order to easily surpass that.
September 22, 2010 at 10:38 am
Beautiful, yes. But with all of that glass, these designs will consume lots of energy. Look at the one that is parked in a snowbank. Heat will be pouring out of the full-height windows, and the cold surfaces will radiate coolness to the occupants who will raise the thermostat to compensate.
Fantastic architecture though.

September 21, 2010 at 1:37 pm
I live in a-frame outside of Park City and I could totally see one of these in my neighborhood.
September 21, 2010 at 1:24 pm
I remember staying in A-Frame cabins as a kid – it's great to see this classic design get a modern update!

This final report from the Regional Migration Study Group outlines the powerful demographic, economic, and social forces reshaping Mexico and Central America and changing longstanding migration dynamics with the United States. It offers a forward-looking, pragmatic agenda for the region, focusing on new collaborative approaches on migration and human-capital development to strengthen regional competitiveness.
MPI has completed an analysis of the major provisions in the 2013 framework, comparing them to provisions of the legislation the Senate considered in 2006 and 2007.
This fact sheet compares key components of immigration reform outlined in the 2013 Senate immigration bill against provisions included in bills considered by the Senate in 2006 and 2007: border security, detention, and enforcement; worksite enforcement; visa reforms; earned legalization of unauthorized immigrants; strengthening the U.S. economy and workforce; and integration of new Americans.
This discussion covers some of the most difficult issues that must be addressed if the United States is to reform its immigration system in ways that work not only for today's reality but tomorrow's future.
This brief demystifies the technical meaning of going to the "back of the line"—a phrase adopted by lawmakers to convey the intent to grant legal status to unauthorized immigrants only after existing backlogs have been cleared—by explaining what "the line" refers to, who is in it, and what it means to be at the back of it.
This report examines Canada's striking openness and optimism towards immigration and multiculturalism. Juxtaposing the widespread support of immigration among Canadian citizens with growing anti-immigrant sentiment and opposition to multicultural policies across Europe and the United States, the author seeks to uncover the reasons behind this Canadian "exceptionalism."
This final report summarizes and reflects upon the key findings of the Improving EU and U.S. Immigration Systems: Learning from Experience comparative research project undertaken by MPI and the European University Institute through a grant from the European Commission.
While aspects of the U.S. immigration system facilitate newcomers' contributions to economic growth and competitiveness, others undermine them. Reforms are needed to enhance the job-creating power of U.S. employers and strengthen the system's ability to select effectively from the large pool of foreign workers.

|Unusually Good Sales in VT This Weekend
Somehow, long ago, the tradition of having super sales during deer season got started in VT. If you live here, you know what I mean. You see newspaper advertisements addressed to "deer season widows" whose husbands are off in the woods in pursuit of deer. The deer hunting season in this state is huge, and so is this kick off to the shopping season.
There are two super sales that you might be interested in as destinations or stop offs while traveling in Vermont this weekend.
One of the biggest sales is the Cabot Hosiery Company ("Darn Tough") annual sale in Northfield VT, just a few minutes drive from the state capital of Montpelier. The company has been holding this sale for 29 years and it is a big one. Cabot Hosiery makes socks for both indoor and outdoor wear. I plan to go tomorrow and load up on Merino wool socks.
I went to the Black Diamond sale a few years ago and was impressed with the great prices on outdoor wear, mostly winter jackets, pants, and hats. Black Diamond, located just outside Montpelier, has excellent good quality products.
Remember the famous line: "The more your buy, the more you save!" Our economy needs you. Well, actually, it needs your money.

text: A class of toxic chemicals known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are among the most dangerous compounds ever produced. They include industrial chemicals, byproducts of manufacturing processes and waste incineration, and pesticides that have been linked to devastating human health consequences. Despite their hazards, POPs continue to be produced, used and stored in many countries. Because they are long-lasting and travel long distances in global air and water currents, even POPs already banned in the United States, such as DDT and PCBs, still make their way into the U.S. food supply.

Get Ready Program Overview
The Get Ready program is an early intervention and college awareness program targeted primarily at low-income students and their families and those underrepresented in post-secondary education.
Get Ready is funded primarily by the U.S. Department of Education through a federal GEAR UP grant (Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs). The Program is administered by the Minnesota Office of Higher Education.
The federal GEAR UP program has two primary objectives: 1) student graduation from high school, and 2) student transition into college upon high school graduation. (Note: "college" includes all types of post-secondary institutions).
Beginning in Fall 2011, in its third grant cycle, the Get Ready program serves fifth through twelfth grade students. The program focuses on understanding the importance of goal setting, college planning information, information about careers and the various types of post-secondary institutions available to achieve different types of career goals, and the various ways to cover the costs of a post-secondary education, and the importance of making good choices when choosing classes in middle school and high school to be prepared to enter and succeed in a post-secondary institution. Academic tutoring and academic advising are provided for direct service students.
Get Ready has two core program delivery components. Both are offered at no cost to eligible participating schools and organizations, including all curriculum materials.
Direct Service
This component provides tutoring and pre-college activities led by Get Ready staff to 5th through 12th grade students at nine pre-selected, Title 1 elementary, middle and high schools in Brooklyn Center, Minneapolis and St. Paul.
Key components include:
- Curriculum materials covering topics such as goal setting, planning skills, career choices, higher education options, and financing higher education
- Tutoring: primarily in the areas of math and reading/language arts
- Academic Advising: in middle and high school to help keep students on track
- Career exploration opportunities
- Field trips to post-secondary institutions
- Career and college-focused seminars
- Summer academic camps: provide scholarship packages for students to attend summer academic enrichment camps
- Parent materials, events and workshops
- Teacher professional development (when funding allows)
2011-2012 Get Ready Direct Service Schools
|St. Paul
|Brooklyn Center
| Andersen United Community School
Hmong International Academy
Olson Middle School
Patrick Henry High School
Roosevelt High School
| Farnsworth Aerospace Magnet
Johnson Senior High School
Washington Technology Secondary School
|Brooklyn Center Secondary
Outreach Minnesota
This component provides the Get Ready curriculum and some pre-college activities (such as college visits) to non-direct service schools and organizations in which more than half of the students receive free or reduced-price lunch. Other factors, such as geographic location and diversity, are also taken into consideration.
Typical components include:
- Get Ready curriculum materials
- Teacher Get Ready curriculum guides/lesson plans
- Age appropriate presentations for students and their parents on topics related to college planning
- Assistance with bus transportation cost for students to go on a college campus visit in the school's/organization's geographic area
- Parent materials related to helping their students plan and prepare for college
- Some possible financial assistance with teacher professional development workshops for classroom teachers actively using the Get Ready curriculum

Monica Stufft, PhD
Assistant Professor, Theatre Arts and Performance Studies
Monica Stufft is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Theatre where she teaches courses in Theatre and Performance Studies and is involved in production work, both as a director and dramaturg. Her specializations include popular culture, theatre historiography as well as cultural, gender, and performance theory. Her research focus is on the intersections of performance and pedagogy in the classroom with a particular interest in the theoretical and philosophical implications of collaboration and collaborative theatre making.
Monica Stufft received her B.A. in English and Theatre from Muhlenberg College, and her Ph.D. in Performance Studies from the University of California, Berkeley.
Scholarly and Creative Work
Dr. Stufft's work is on the intersections of performance and pedagogy, such as on the ethical implications of collaboration as a central focus for undergraduate theatre programs. She is currently collaborating with Dr. Sruti Bala (University of Amsterdam) on a book project that explores how the intertwining of performance and pedagogy carries profound philosophical and theoretical implications while also raising very practical questions related to the enterprise of teaching. The manuscript will be a collection of essays exploring the epistemological shift that occurs when Performance Studies intersects Performance Theory as well as shorter pieces on particular classroom teaching examples. Dr. Stufft recently published an article entitled "Putting Collaboration Front and Center: Assessment Strategies for Theatre Departments" in the March 2013 issue of Theatre Topics in which she questions a focus on individuated modes of assessment in the field of theatre, details her development of collaboration based assessment tools, and shares insights from the implementation of those tools in the evaluation of collaboration during a production that she directed at USD. Dr. Stufft also co-wrote an article with USD graduate Michael Frederick Ahmad entitled "Performances that Matter: Theory and Practice on a Catholic University Campus" for the spring 2011 volume of Ecumenica in which they explore two performance pieces Ahmad created while enrolled in Stufft's Performance Studies course.
At USD, she most recently directed "TBD," a collaboratively-devised theatre piece created from scratch by students enrolled in the Spring 2013 course, THEA 494: Collaborative Theatre Making. The show featured live music and explored how Disney princesses have shaped ideals as well as wants and needs by drawing from the personal stories of the participants. The students were interested in the journey to happily ever after, what it takes to get there, and in both celebrating and troubling the characters and narratives offered by Disney. She has also directed Naomi Iizuka's "ANON(ymous)" as well as Charles Mee's "The Mail Order Bride" using collaborative theatre making methods. She has served as dramaturg on shows such as "Cabaret," "An Experiment with An Air Pump," "The Country Wife," "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead," "The Saint Plays," "Picasso at the Lapin Agile, " and "First Lady Suite." In addition to directing and dramaturging projects at the University of California, Berkeley, Professor Stufft served as Assistant Director for numerous productions at the Aurora Theatre Company (Berkeley, CA), where she worked as a dramaturg and a member of the Directors Board for the Global Age Project. She has also been involved in projects at The Magic Theatre (San Francisco, CA) and at St. Mary's College (Moraga, CA).
Dr. Stufft is currently the co-chair of the Performance Studies international Performance and Pedagogy working group with Dr. Sruti Bala. She is also the co-chair for ATHE's Professional Development's subcommittee on Pedagogy and Assessment with Dr. Travis Malone. She recently served as the chair of the Collaborative Research Award Committee and as a member of the Domestic Exchange Program Committee of the American Society for Theatre Research, sat on the board of Performance Studies international, and was the Membership and Finance Officer of the Susan Glaspell Society. She is a member of ASTR, ATDS, ATHE, and PSi.
Teaching Interests
In all of her courses, Dr. Stufft focuses on the various relationships between the aesthetic and the everyday, the real and the represented, and between the self and the other. Her courses are designed to facilitate and highlight the active interchange between theory and practice, between scholar and artist. At USD, she offers undergraduate courses in Performance Studies, Theatre History, Contemporary Theatre, Acting 1 and Theatre & Society as well as the Special Topics course on Collaborative Theatre Making.

In the 1977 movie, Star Wars Episode IV, orders to excecute the princess are given several times. Once an order to execute her "immediately" but still she was not executed and was later rescued. Why was she not executed?

I think Lucas was employing a plot trope called, Always Save the Girl. The effect of having a wait associated with the character moves the plot along.
There are also other ways to look at it: aside from the dramatic effect of waiting, there may have been bureaucratic obstacles (the Empire is a government entity after all). And the timeline of events issue raised by a previous poster. Additionally, Darth Vader is powerful in the ways of the Force and could possibly foreseen future events regarding the escape of Leia and the discovery of his son.
Also, the movie and the story were written in an earlier time when people were more innocent than we are today. Look at American Graffiti; another great movie by George Lucas.

Scholarships and bursaries
Masaryk University awards the following types of scholarships and bursaries:
- bursary,
- grant in support of accommodation,
- Rector's Scholarship Programme,
- scholarship for outstanding study results,
- scholarship for international students,
- scholarship in support of creative activities,
- scholarship in support of mobility,
- scholarship in exceptional cases,
- scholarship in support of studies in a doctoral degree programme.
Students of Masaryk University may apply for scholarships and bursaries, generally within the framework of scholarship and bursary programmes organized by individual faculties. The MU Scholarship and Bursary Regulations grant individual faculties (and other units at MU) the power to organize scholarship and bursary programmes in order to support students' study-related activities; such activities must be in agreement with the general objectives of the faculty as well as of Masaryk University as a whole. Faculties and other units specify the criteria for awarding individual scholarships.
For an overview of scholarship and bursary programmes announced by individual faculties, see
Faculty of Economics and Administration (Czech only)
Account number
In case a student is interested in applying for a scholarship anywhere at MU, it is essential that he/she provide a functional bank account number so that scholarship payments may be made to that account. The bank account must be kept with banks in the Czech Republic and in the Czech currency. The account number must be entered in the Personal Administration section of the Information System.
Grant in Support of Accommodation
Students of Masaryk University may apply for a grant in support of accommodation (i.e. the accommodation grant). Criteria for awarding the accommodation grant are stipulated by section 8 of the MU Scholarship and Bursary Regulations and are checked against data listed in the national register of students. The accommodation grant is awarded for two periods: 1 January to 30 June and 1 July to 31 December.
Grant applications are to be submitted in electronic form via the MU Information System. Applications must be submitted between 1 and 30 November (fall semester) and between 1 and 30 April (spring semester). Decisions regarding the acceptance or rejection of such applications are announced via the IS within several days following the submission deadline. In case an application is accepted, payment will subsequently be made to the designated account (see above).
In case a student fails to apply by the designated deadline, the grant cannot be awarded retroactively. It is also not possible to award a proportional sum of money in case a student's studies are terminated during the course of a semester prior to the issuing of a decision awarding the accommodation grant.
In accordance with the provisions of section 91, subsection 2, letter d) of the Higher Education Act, the so-called accommodation grant shall be awarded to a student who fulfils all of the following criteria:
- is enrolled in a full-time degree programme,
- is enrolled in a degree programme which is his/her first degree programme at any university in the Czech Republic with the exception of being enrolled in his/her first follow-up Master's degree programme (relevant to graduates of Bachelor's degree programmes) or his/her first doctoral degree programme (relevant to graduates of Master's degree programmes); furthermore, studies in degree programmes an applicant may have enrolled in and completed between 1 May and 30 October of one calendar year are not taken into account,
- has not exceeded the standard length of studies in any of the degree programmes which he/she is concurrently enrolled in,
- does not have a permanent address within the Statutory City of Brno (Brno City district).
Masaryk University also implements a bursary programme for students in difficult social conditions. Criteria for granting a bursary are stipulated by section 91, subsection 3 of the Higher Education Act and the relevant provision made by the Rector.
The value of the bursary amounts to 1,620 CZK per month. Students must apply for the bursary in electronic form via the MU Information System between 1 and 20 November. An essential part of the application is a written statement (Sdělení pro účely přiznání stipendia, i.e. bursary allocation statement). This document includes a statement by the relevant state social assistance authority certifying that the student has for a certain period of time (generally from October to February or e.g. from October to August) been eligible for child allowance and that family income in the preceding year did not exceed 1.50 of the family's subsistence minimums. In order to be eligible for a bursary, a student must likewise not exceed the standard length of studies.
The bursary is paid out on a monthly basis between 1 October and 31 July, although the first payment is generally made in the first half of December and covers the current month as well as payments for October and November. Further payments follow at the end of each subsequent month.
Student may apply for a bursary retroactively, provided they do so at the Office for Studies of the Rector's Office. The bursary allocation statement is valid for 21 months following the end of the year for which the family income was calculated.
- The bursary may be granted only to students receiving child allowance in the Czech Republic.
- The standard length of studies is generally 3 years for Bachelor's degree programmes, 5 years for Master's degree programmes, 2 years for follow-up Master's degree programmes and 4 or 3 years for doctoral degree programmes.
- All previous study periods terminated otherwise than in due form are added to the standard length of studies (e.g. in case a student had spent 7 months in his/her first Bachelor's degree programme and has subsequently spent another 2 years and 6 months in his/her second Bachelor's degree programme, such a student thus exceeds the standard length of studies by 1 month).
- In case the IS indicates that a bursary application cannot be submitted due to a student's exceeding the standard length of studies on a given date, it is still possible to apply prior to the date indicated (e.g. in case the IS indicates that an application cannot be submitted due to a student's exceeding the standard length of studies on 15 July, he/she may still apply by 14 July).
Bursary application submission (1 to 20 November):
- Students are required to send a duplicate or certified copy of the bursary allocation statement to Žerotínovo nám. 9, 601 77 Brno, clearly labelling the envelope "Sociální stipendium" (bursary). The UČO (student identification number) and telephone number must be listed in the document itself.
- An electronic application must be simultaneously submitted in the MU Information System at https://is.muni.cz/auth/stipendia/soc_stip_zadosti.pl. This website also provides information on whether or not an application has been accepted.
The grant in support of accommodation and bursary are administrated by the Office for Studies of the Rector's Office.
Rector's Scholarship Programme
The Rector's Scholarship Programme is stipulated by the Rector's Provision 8/2012(Czech only). The purpose of the scholarship programme is for Masaryk University (hereafter "MU") to award scholarships in cases deserving special consideration in accordance with section 91, subsection 2, letter e) of the Higher Education Act pursuant to section 91 subsection 5 of the Higher Education Act. The purpose of the scholarship programme is to support inter-faculty or inter-university student activities. These activities are linked in particular to the development of formal and informal education, supporting the development of strategic objectives and the development of the values of MU and the representation of the university (socially, culturally, and in the areas of sport and scientific research).
The application form for the MU Rector's scholarship is available in Document Server. (Czech only)
Applications are submitted through the Information System by uploading the documents into the appropriate section for applications. (Czech only)
The applications are processed 4 times a year, and students are informed about the start of the process on the MU notice board in IS.

I just downloaded and installed CHS. It looks promising. Of all the clipboard programs out there this one is the most useful without taking over your cut and paste operations. I like how it works in the background. The bug. The program will not start minimized with windows even though the boxes are checked and I have a current license. Observations:
Checking the boxes Start with windows and Start minimized creates an entry in MSCONFIG startup
Upon startup the CHS icon appears in the system tray but near the end of the startup procedure the icon disappears and CHS starts maximized
The entry that was in MSCONFIG startup is now gone and the boxes Start with windows and Start Maximized are unchecked
Is there a way to correct this? TIA
