Center for Global Change and Arctic System ResearchA campus-wide framework for linking knowledge and people
Global Change Student Research Grant Competition
For more than 20 years, this unique program has provided support to UAF undergraduate and graduate students for research related to global change with a focus on arctic or subarctic boreal regions. Initiated in 1992 under the auspices of the UAF Center for Global Change, it is administered by the UAF Graduate School with support from current funding partners, the Cooperative Institute for Alaska Research (CIFAR), the Robert Belous Global Change Research Endowment and the UAF Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarly Activity (URSA).
The annual competition is designed to provide professional training by giving student applicants experience with proposal writing and the peer review system as practiced by natural and social science funding agencies. Successful applicants also gain experience with post-award activities and obligations such as managing their funds, and fulfilling reporting requirements.
In the context of this competition, global change research includes the observation and study of the processes, interactions, and feedbacks among the components of the Earth system (atmospheric, oceanic, hydrologic, ecologic, and human) in both the past and present, in order to anticipate future changes, develop effective responses to change including the means for sustainable management of resources and ecosystem services, and to ensure societal and cultural viability and adaptation over the long term. Global change includes but is not limited to climate change.
The proposal submission deadline generally falls in the first half of February each year.
The deadline for the 2015 competition was February 6, 2015. The 2015 guidelines can still be accessed; however, be aware that the 2016 competition guidelines will be somewhat different.
We anticipate releasing the 2016 competition guidelines in October 2015. To be notified when this happens, please send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com with the subject line "2016 competition guidelines".

18 cents a meter.
Read 800 homes on average EVERYDAY. Day in, day out. and you will make $144/day. Take home = slightly over $100/day
You might say that there are good routes that pay well. There are, and only the 5 year+ experienced readers get those. So, they make a livable income.
If you are newer than 5 years, you get handed the the worst routes no one wants, instead of making the load equal. So newer readers like myself TRY to read 800 homes every day in hopes to make a petty $500/week(IF THAT) and burn yourself in the meantime.
Readers never make more, actually, new sub-contractors like Olameter come in and bid the lowest so the plentiful rich enough utility companies take them. Therefore, there are only ever pay decreases as the higher up management gains more by squeezing readers dry. SO, cost of living goes up, meter readers pay, goes down.
Also, no holidays, or time off in your first year, which is baffling as readers need to rest. Very inconsiderate. After a year you get 2 weeks holiday which you have paid for through deductions every paycheck.
Olameter is very generous when is comes to covering cost for shoes though. Since readers need very good footwear, and wear through shoes in months. They graciously give each employee a 15 dollar voucher for shoes per year. I know what you're thinking...WOW! But it gets better. Those are only for shoes that are "Tarantula Grip" anti-slip for the winter months...that actually make NO difference, and are exponentially uncomfortable.
Management does not explain what constitutes the different pay rates for the distance of reads. Usually, they are a cheaper rate than what they should be and readers get in trouble for changing them appropriately. So taking advantage of readers is a very acceptable practice for Olameter. Considering what the meter reading fee is on your bill, the utility companys must be laughing all the way to the bank and how much they make off us, including Olameter.

I am baffled by the following problem.
I have a Dell XPS 8500 desktop running Windows 7 64 bit and a Dell laptop XPS 15 also running Windows 7 64 bit. I connected my HP laserjet 4050 to the laptop (I was previously using it with another computer running Windows XP); it worked fine straight off. I connected it to the desktop; it worked twice, and then stopped. Actually, it has not stopped completely. It lies there inert until I restart the computer; then it prints whatever I had asked it to print before the restart. I can't go on restarting the desktop whenever I want to print, and it seems to work fine with the laptop. Incidentally, it also works fine with a friend's laptop (I think that was an Acer) running Windows 7 64 bit.
Can anyone explain what is going on, and what I can do to make the printer work with my desktop?
Many thanks.

Barcelona, 28th January 2014. A study led by researchers from IMIM (Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute) and published in the journal Plos One concludes that including waist circumference measurements in clinical practice, together with the traditional height and weight measurements, would make it easier to detect children and adolescents with cardiometabolic risk, i.e. those with a higher predisposition to suffer from arteriosclerosis or type 2 diabetes. This study is the first of its kind in Spain on abdominal obesity in children and adolescents, one of the most important risk factors associated to this disorder, which has increased in recent years.
Researchers analysed data from 1521 Spanish children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 that participated in the ENKID study on nutrition and dietary habits and measured the proportion of abdominal obesity both in children and adolescents with a normal weight and those who were overweight. To do this they measured the waist circumference and height, known as the waist-to-height ratio, an indicator that is totally independent from age and gender, which estimates that abdominal obesity exists when the result is equal or higher than 0.5.
According to Helmut Schrder, a researcher from the research group on cardiovascular risk and nutrition at IMIM and also a member of the CIBER on Epidemiology and Public Health, "In Spain, 21.3% of children aged 6 to 11 and 14.3% of adolescents aged 12 to 17 have abdominal obesity. From the total of Spanish children with a normal weight or overweight, 7.5% of those with a normal weight had abdominal obesity, while from those overweight, 49.2% have abdominal obesity. None of them would have been identified using the traditional screening methods. The same is true for adolescents, where 1.8% have a normal weight and 44.1% are overweight and wouldn't have been detected either."

Rock out or keep it mellow, these songs bare their hearts for your play along pleasure.
We've said it before: Classical guitar isn't limited to classical music.
Ed Mitchell's tips on a process that can make readers high strung: Restringing an acoustic.
Today we bring you two recent videos of Sturgill Simpson, whose latest album, Metamodern Sounds in Country Music, made Guitar World's list of the 50 best albums of 2014.
Here young South Korean guitarist Sungha Jung digs into a fingerstyle rendition of Michael Jackson's "Billy Jean." Jung started playing at age 9, and as you can see, he's progressed to prodigy level. His YouTube covers collectively have hundreds of millions of views.
Another Friday, and another viral video is making the rounds in stringed-instrument land. This time, it's a fan-filmed clip of Taimane Gardner, a Hawaiian ukulele virtuoso, performing at the 2014 San Diego Ukulele Festival.
We're excited to share Shelly Waters' new video for "Drive," the title track from her new release out now on Moonwatcher Music. Waters' strong, deep Americana and Country sound and distinct voice are showcased here.
Is life really like a three minute pop song? Leann Womack has something to say about that, as well as social media. And in case you were afraid to ask what "Americana" music is, I asked Geoff Himes, music critique from The Washington Post, and boy does he know his stuff!
OK, there's absolutely nothing "new" about this February 2011 video, and we could've sworn we posted it at some point during the past three years—but it turns out we didn't! Time to fix that.
Here's a lovely video from SHEL to help you get in the holiday mood. This Nashville via Fort Collins band of four sisters have created a stunning, homemade silhouette video of the classic holiday song "Sleigh Ride."
What do you like? Something rockin'? Sweet or introspective? Masterful or mournful? Whatever your preference 2014 delivered. We've listened to a huge amount of music throughout the year, and picking favorites is hard. But we owe it to you to steer you toward some that stuck with us
I had the privilege of sitting down with John Butler recently as he went through the fingering and technique for his new song "Spring to Come" off the upcoming album Flesh and Blood. Check it out and Play It Now!
Here's a kick ass performance by the acoustic guitar masters of Guitar Republic, "Funky Sexy Republic." I can't stop watching! Employing every technique you can think of—tapping, plucking, bowing, strumming, and more — this trio of Sergio Altamura, Stefano Barone and Pino Forastiere give it their all!

Intel options were active earlier in the week, and yesterday the buying hit right at the top of CNBC's "Fast Money Halftime Report."
optionMONSTER's Heat Seeker scanners detected heavy volume in the June 23 calls and the July 25s as traders once again rolled their positions to higher strikes in longer-dated contracts. This time, they sold the June 23s for $1.83 and bought the July 25s for $0.74.
These long calls lock in the price where the chip maker's shares can be bought, so they can track movements in the stock price cheaply and leverage any rally. On Tuesday , bullish call positions were rolled up from the June 26s to the July 27s. (See our Education section)
INTC rose 2.17 percent to $24.99 yesterday. Almost 99,000 calls traded versus fewer than 28,000 puts, further indication of the session's bullish sentiment.
Disclosure: I own INTC calls.

- 6 tbsp. pure maple syrup
- 1 c. heavy cream
- In a food processor, combine the flour, granulated sugar and 1/4 tsp salt. Add the butter and pulse to form coarse crumbs. Add 2 Tbsp cold water, pulsing until the dough begins to come together (if necessary, add more water 1 tsp at a time).
- Transfer the dough to a piece of plastic wrap; shape into a 1-in.-thick disk. Wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 350°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 12-in. circle. Fit it into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-in. pie plate; trim the overhang 1/2 in. from the edge of the rim. Fold the overhang under itself and crimp as desired. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
- In a bowl, combine the eggs, brown sugar, pumpkin, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 1/4 cup cream and remaining 1/4 tsp salt. Transfer to the prepared crust and bake until the filling is just set in the center and crust is golden brown, 60 to 65 minutes. Let cool.
- Ten minutes before serving, using an electric mixer, beat the remaining 3/4 cup cream and 6 Tbsp maple syrup until soft peaks form. Serve with the pie.

Complaint: On 12/**/14 my husband and I looked at and considered buying a 2006 Honda Accord from this dealership. We needed a few days to consider the purchase and wanted a chance to drive the vehicle (we couldn't test drive that day because we had our child with us). We gave them a $300 deposit. I have a contract that clearly states that the deposit was "pending mechanic approval", which *** **** told us was just a formality because "he had to write something". He also stated "this is just to hold the car so no one else sells it in the next few days". I returned to the dealership to drive the car on 12/**/14. When i drove it, I heard a rattle. I left the dealership and called my mechanic who advised me not to purchase the car. I called *** **** an hour after leaving to tell him I didn't want the car and that I'd like my $300 refunded. I called on 12/**/14 to inquire about the refund. First I was told that it would take 5 business days. Then I was told that "I had made a commitment to buy the vehicle". I clearly did no such thing. Additionally, *** **** filed loan applications in my name for four times the amount I intended to finance had I purchased the vehicle. There is a note on the contract which specifically states that if we were to purchase the vehicle we were putting down $8000 and financing approximately $4000. He submitted the loan application (which he knew was not correct) for $16,000 on 12/**- the day I decided NOT to buy the car. I specifically asked him (on 12/** after we left) not to file the application as I realized I had not filled it out correctly. I told him I'd fill out a new one when I came on the **** to drive the car. I didn't fill out a new one because I didn't want the car, but he submitted the application anyway, thus damaging my credit. I have called Manhasset Honda repeatedly and left messages to try to resolve this issue and get my refund. I have also filed a complaint with Honda of America.
Desired Settlement: $300 refund and a letter to the credit reporting agency stating that the loan application was filed in error.
Consumer Response:
After weeks of ignored phone calls to Honda of Manhasset, (now called Advantage Honda) my deposit was finally refunded. I'm confident that the only reason they finally responded is because I opened a formal complaint with Honda of America. This was a time consuming headache. I will NEVER do business with this company again.

Additional Notes
Complaint: My problem concerns the failure of Honda Manhasset to process a refund, as promised in writing and verbally agreed to by the dealership's ******** *******, ***** *******. When I picked up and paid for my 2014 Honda Accord EX-L, I was told that the nose mask ordered and paid for had not come in and would have to be installed at a later date. Moreover, my salesman ***** ******, and *** ******* each informed me that in their experience "only one other person had ordered this option," and further cautioned me that it might prove more detrimental than beneficial to my car's paint finish (the nose mask would cover up part of the hood and bumper, possibly causing discoloration and fading from exposure to the sun). After hearing this, I expressed misgivings about installing the nose mask and was told, in no uncertain terms, that I could cancel this option if I so desired. After researching the issue on my own, I called first thing the next day to nix this option and made my intentions known to *** ******, whereupon I received confirmation by email and phone that he had forwarded my decision and desire for a refund to ***** *******. It took repeated attempts, however, to connect with *** *******, who eventually assured me that I would be receiving a check from Honda Manhasset in the amount of $210. The ******** ******* gave me his word that he "would be following up with this so that I can get my refund ASAP." Three weeks later, I'm still waiting for that $210 check to arrive from Honda Manhasset, and still waiting for *** ******* to "follow up" by email or phone to inform me of the status of my refund. I am in receipt of my back-and-forth email communications with *** ******* and *** ****** documenting the entire matter and culminating in an apology and promise from the ******** ******* to act in good faith to "make this an overall good experience." Additionally, I have supporting documents (bills of sales) issued when the deal was closed that support my claim and corroborate my entitlement to a refund of $210. The remedy of this situation is rather simple and straightforward, yet the matter drags on and remains unresolved.
Desired Settlement: That Honda Manhasset refund MY money forthwith.
Business Response: This matter will be resolved immediately, The customer will recieve a full refund.

Complaint: I took my Honda pilot there that had a light on in the dashboard looked like a ench at which I assumed was the repair light. I told them the service light is on and that they should look into it. Little did I know that that was the Tire pressure light. They neglected to symply tell me that it was the tire pressure light instead they waisted 4 hours of my work time along with a $60 charge which was 100% unnecessarily.
Desired Settlement: Please refund the full amount along with compensation of my work time for those 4 hours of $100 a total of $160
Business Response:
Our dealership charges a diagnoistic fee of $110 for any lights or symbols that may be displayed on the dash board. As a first time customer courtesy we charged half that amount $55. The customers car was hooked up to a Honda diagnoistic computer and checked for any code that may have triggered a check engine light which is what the customer told us he came in for. We do not charge customers to tell them that the wrench on the dash is saying the car needs a oil change. This customer came in at 11:22am on 06/**/14 and left his car with us. He did not wait hours for it. We have documented on his receipt from that day that we tried to call him at 12:15pm , 1:30pm, and 3:25pm and left messages on all 3 attempts. We also load tested his battery at no charge to make sure that it wasnt low voltage that was causing the check engine light to go off and on. Customer approved charge before any work was perfomed and it was found that there were no codes in the systme for a check engine light
Better Business Bureau:
This is faulce information, I told them the engine light was on they should have told me right away that it was not a engine light. Instead they charged me. And regarding the calls I gave them my cell number to call and they neglected to call my cell they instead called my house. I was sitting in the dealership waiting at that time!

Complaint: Honda Manhasset charged over $120 for walking in the door, and then wanted to charge over $650 to fix same power window switch that was just fixed there in November. Price gouging and not standing behind their work exemplify Honda Manhasset.
Desired Settlement: Please stand behind your work and fix the problem.
Better Business Bureau:
My credit card was charged over $120 to "diagnose" that my driver's power window switch doesn't work. Honda Manhasset wanted to charge over $650 to fix the problem that was just fixed there in November. Even Honda has recalled my 2006 Honda CR-V for this very problem (Recall *********).

Complaint: I went to purchase a new car at Honda Manhasset. We agreed on the price, color, remote start, and etc. The sale rep. showed me a document of what I should expect and what we spoke about in writing. I was asked to leave a deposit of $500 and sign a sales contract. I told him I wasn't ready to leave a deposit. I am not ready to make a deposit because i don't know what the APR rate is. He pointed out to "regulation Z" and assured me that if i don't like the rate i can get my deposit refunded to me. I don't like the rate. They never contacted me and informed me of the rate. Instead, Honda went ahead and processed the car order and the demand i buy their car. I requested numerous times for a refund but to no avail.I never touched the new car, test drive it, saw it, or took it out of the Honda dealership. I made a deposit. They promised that i could get a refund. I refuse to buy the car and they won't refund my deposit. Please help. Thanks.
Desired Settlement: $500 refund to my credit card.

Complaint: I was manipulated and coached by sales rep Mr. ***** ******, who misguided, misled and took advantage of me being a senior citizen, and forced me to sign a new lease by making falsified promises that were proven misleading and manipulative to ensure his commission with Honda. Despite my many attempts to speak to Mr. ******, he avoided me and refused to communicate with family mr,bets who came to my assistance.
Desired Settlement: Being a devoted Honda customer for the last 30 years, I'd expect Mr. ****** to accept responsibility for having misled and emotionally manipulated me to enter into a new lease agreement. Mr. ****** promised me that since I am such a loyal Honda customer, they would not charge me any disposition fees, since I will be leasing a new vehicle with the same company. I was clearly instructed to drop off my previous vehicle at Honda dealership in Manhasset, and I'd pick up my new vehicle the same day. He assured me over and over again in the presence of my daughter who accompanied me to the company, that I'd not be responsible for my previous vehicle once I take possession of the new one. When I dropped off previous vehicle, it was inspected in my presence and according to Mr. ****** " vehicle was in excellent shape and condition" I was shocked and devastated when only a month after I entered into a new lease agreement with Honda, I received a bill from Fusion Auto Finance demanding payment totaling $ 1,716.28 for my 2009 Honda Civic. Description of alleged fees include the following: Disposition fee $400, Valet Key Missing $ 75, Windshield Replaced $480, Rear Bumper Damage $ 312.50 , Front Bumper Damage $ 312.50. I can assure you that this is fiction, unreliable and totally misleading, I'd have never expected Honda MANHASSET to treat me the way they did, showing no remorse for their misrepresentations and manipulations. My self as well as family members have been leasing and buying vehicles from that same dealership since mid 80's. They should be appreciative that I, a senior citizen despite the economic hardships, has never been late with monthly payments for the entire lease term.
Business Response:
Good afternoon,
No misrepresentations were made and the details of the transaction were clearly disclosed in writing at the time of sale. Littigation is pending in the matter and we look forward to presenting the facts.
Thank you. ***** *******
Better Business Bureau:
[Your Answer Here]
To Better Business Bureau:
I don't agree with what Mr. ***** ******* is indicating. I don"t recall him being present during the time we went to the dealership or the day my mother signed the new lease. How can he be so sure about what Mr. ******* told my mother or did not tell her, to persuade her to sign the new lease ? I was there throughout the process since my mother needed me to translate for her.
Since 1988, I personally purchased and/ or leased four vehicles from Honda, my mother has leased three. Honda executives, should be appreciative to their loyal customers, as we have been For nearly 3 decades, who are giving Hondasteady business throughout the years. Especially senior citizens such as my 78 yo mother, who makes sure despite her financial difficulties, the lease payment to Honda will go out the 1 st of the month.
My mother being a loyal Honda customer, should have never been charged a $ 400 disposition fee. This is standard for all companies. It applied to me as well, when I leased my vehicle from BMW. They treated me with respect, dignity and appreciation, this is the reason I will continue giving BMW my business.

Complaint: After completing purchase of new vehicle dealer was unable to deliver car in a timely manner, I requested a refund of full payment and have to date not received refund.
Desired Settlement: Refund ASAP
Business Response:
******* ****** ,
This customer was asured he would get his money back as soon as 10 business days expired from the date of depositing his check. At time of sale this customer was instructed that we would like a cashier check for the car on delivery, at his persistance we accepted a personal check with the agreement that we would not be able to deliver the car till the check cleared and that our policy was waiting 10 business days. The customer deside he wanted to pick the car up on a date before the 10th business day. At cancellation of the deal we notified our office to refund the money when the 10 business day arrives. I followed up with our office, the 10th day is 03/22/13. There will be a refund check issued on that date and sent by regular mail to the customer. I would hope that you could see that this complaint is not valid and that we at no time ever told the customer he would not get his money returned to him.

It sounds pretty familiar: Verlander and Leyland lead the Tigers to a win.
Only this Tigers win was in surburban Connecticut and neither Ben Verlander or Pat Leyland, both 21-year-old Minor Leaguers, have ever won Cy Young Awards or managed a team to the World Series.
Tigers fans can probably do the math on this one -- Verlander is the younger brother of Detroit ace Justin Verlander and Leyland is the son of Tigers manager Jim Leyland. Both helped steer the Class A Short-Season Connecticut Tigers past the visiting Vermont Lake Monsters, 10-3, at Dodd Stadium on Wednesday.
Verlander, an outfielder, went 2-for-4 with his first career home run while Leyland singled and knocked home a pair of runs.
Drafted by the Tigers earlier this month in the 14th round out of Old Dominion, Verlander was playing in just his seventh professional game when he took Vermont starter Jose Torres deep with a man on and one out in the first. The first baseman doubled home Curt Powell in the second as Connecticut (3-6) took a 5-1 lead after two innings.
Leyland singled home Duncan McAlpine and Javier Azcona to cap a four-run first. The first baseman, drafted as an eighth-rounder in 2010, has a few more years of experience than Verlander. He began the season with Class A Advanced Lakeland, batting .168 with two RBIs in 25 games after spending all of 2012 with Class A West Michigan, where he hit .237 with a pair of long balls and 24 RBIs in 68 games. He began his career with the GCL Tigers in 2010 and appeared in 35 games with Connecticut in 2011.
For Verlander, suiting up for the Tigers was a dream come true despite the fact he opted not to sign with the club three years ago when he was drafted in the 46th round of the 2010 Draft out of Goochland High School in Maidens, Va. He debuted on June 19 with Connecticut, going 1-for-3, after hitting .367 with 11 homers and 44 RBIs in college this past season.
"Super excited for him," Justin Verlander, the No. 2 overall pick in 2004, told MLB.com after his brother was drafted. So excited, he bought a Range Rover for his younger brother. "He's worked extremely hard. He earned this all on his own. I'm excited for him. I'm excited to see what he does to start his professional career."
Verlander, who signed on June 12, has actually suited up and taken some swings already in Detroit, although he did so prior to the Draft when Tigers hitting coach Lloyd McClendon helped him refine his swing.
"Just to be drafted is an honor," Verlander told FoxSports. "To be be drafted to the team that your big brother's on is even more cool."
After the game, Connecticut announced the team soon will be featuring another big name -- Kevin Ziomek, Detroit's second-round pick this season, is slated to join the club after going 11-3 at Vanderbilt this year. Connecticut already has the Tigers' No. 1 pick in 2013, right-hander Jonathon Crawford.

iPhone/iPod Touch alternative power sources
The second alternative is a dedicated charger for the iPhone/Touch, such as the Mophie Juice Pack pictured here. This unit is a sleeve and the iPhone/Touch just slips into it like a case. The unit contains a non-replaceable rechargeable battery. According to their website the Juice Pack will increase standby time to 350 hours, talk time to 6 hours in 3G, 6 hours WiFi use, 28 hours audio playback and 8 hours of video playback. I have verified the audio and video times, but not the others.
The advantage of the Mophie is that it integrates the phone and charger into one unit and you really don't need to take it off. Your iPhone/iPod charger will charge both the phone and the Mophie at the same time. The disadvantages of the unit are that it costs $99 and that it is rechargeable. You cant' carry a pair of spare batteries to use in an emergency, like you can with with Turbo Charge.

First beta version of KDE 4
The KDE project has just released a beta 1 version of its next generation KDE 4 desktop environment. At the same time, interfaces to KDE libraries were frozen to allow application developers to use them for their work.
Besides the KDE base there have been enhancements to a number of individual applications: KMail has introduced the Tagging Patch to give users the ability to tag mails with custom categories and colors. KOrganizer now has a new look for schedules, which is reminiscent of Outlook, and can also display a Gantt diagram style view.
Marble is a completely new feature - a geography widget that shows views of the earth and accompanying information and provides them to other KDE applications, in a style similar to Google Earth. Google is sponsoring three students to work on Marble within the scope of the Google Summer of Code.
KDE's terminal application, Konsole, can now display clickable URLs; it also has a number of new tricks that relate to background colors, and it passes schema information to the terminal and applications such as Vim to allow color palette modifications. Additionally, views can be distributed over sub-windows.
In addition to this, the developers have improved integration of the Dolphin file manager with the Gwenview file viewer and Konqueror Web browser components. According to the project's plans, the final version of Konqueror will use the Rendering Engine Webkit, which originated with KHTML, but was forked and developed by Apple. The Koffice project has its own release cycle, and will be publishing the second alpha version 2.0 of its free office suite parallel to the KDE beta. Check out this announcement for more details
KDE 4 Beta 1 packages are available for Kubuntu and OpenSuse. And there is also a Live-CD to give users an easy option for trying out the new features. Additionally, the Mepis Linux distribution is looking to integrate the beta packages with its upcoming 7.0 release.

Rated 5 out of 5 by beebs from Beautiful and classic I bought this desk with the peek-a-boo chair for my 8-year-old's room and it's just beautiful. The style and craftsmanship will easily see her through to college- I would even consider putting it elsewhere in the house. I do wish The Land of Nod also sold a glass top to protect the finish (we've already dealt with some marker stains). We are considering getting one made for it. But overall, love it, and love The Land of Nod!

Rated 5 out of 5 by JRVA from Perfect for Entry Table This was my first furniture purchase with Land of Nod and the bar has been set! This desk was packed so well and everything was very organized. I was really impressed with the amount of consideration given to the way this was shipped and how quickly it arrived. The desk was a snap to put together and I had everything assembled in less than 15 minutes. The quality of this piece is wonderful and I have no doubts it will last a very long time. It's so beautiful!!! We are using it in our living room as an entry table and it's a great fit for the space.

Rated 5 out of 5 by OnTheRoadToReading from Pretty and functional! Children need a quiet space to do their homework or read and this pretty desk fits the bill!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Lexnyc from So close to being amazing Finally a furniture company that makes campaign furniture! I love this desk which I use as a vanity. I wish the hardware was more of a gold brass, it's more of a brown brass. The major issue and really almost a deal breaker is that the drawers don't fully extend! Literally a third of the drawer space is hidden. It makes that space almost unusable. This piece would be perfect if the drawers extended fully. :(

Rated 4 out of 5 by Lexnyc from Really cute but misses the mark on some things... I am so glad a furniture company has finally caught on to the Campaign style!! This is my favorite style of furniture. The desk is very cute.. BUT one part that is HUGELY disappointing, that I am like why in the world would the designers do this? Is that the drawers aren't full extension!! Meaning they only come out about 3/4 of the way so there is huge space in the back that you cant see. So disappointing. It is basically unusable space because who wants to store things in a space they can't ever see. I also wish the hardware was more golden brass and not so brown brass. It would be much more true to the original campaign style of furniture and add that glamour that this simple designs needs.

Fan goes to hospital, 17 ejected after minor league brawl
Updated: July 25, 2008, 2:48 PM ETESPN.com news services
DAYTON, Ohio -- Fifteen players and both managers were ejected -- and a fan was sent to the hospital -- following a 10-minute, benches-clearing brawl in a Class A minor league game between affiliates of the Cincinnati Reds and Chicago Cubs on Thursday night.
The ejections were reversed by league president George Spelius and the game was completed with Dayton winning 6-5.
The fan was taken to the hospital after being hit by a ball thrown by Peoria (Cubs) pitcher Julio Castillo, who ...

I'm currently on a flight layover…in my apartment. We went to my in-laws' on Friday afternoon and just got back today. We'll sleep in our bed tonight and then tomorrow morning we are off to Michigan to visit my family for Christmas. It's exhausting just thinking about it, isn't it? But, it's always nice to spend some time with family. I'm not sure I will be able to blog in the next week or not, so I wanted to wish all my readers happy holidays!
I still have a couple more sweets to blog, but I thought I'd take a quick break and go back to something savory. I've eaten so much sugar in the past week (and, I won't lie, I'll continue to eat more this upcoming week) that I probably shouldn't be spending the time I'm not eating sweets looking at more sweets.
This is one of those dinners that came together very quickly from some ingredients I had to use up. I had a small cube of smoked mozzarella, a little half and half, half a can of diced tomatoes and a few stems of sage. Of course I always have pasta around and I like keeping some chicken sausage around, too, because it's a little different than your standard chicken breast and it thaws really quickly. I figured the sage would go well with the smoky mozzrella and the sausage, and it did. You could use fresh basil, or any dried herbs you would like to incorporate instead, though.
Rigatoni with Sausage and Smoked Mozzarella
Serves 2
Printer Friendly Recipe
4 oz. rigatoni (I use whole wheat)
1 tsp. olive oil
2 (3 oz.) spicy Italian sausage links, casings removed (I use chicken)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup diced tomatoes (including the juice)
1/8 – 1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
1/4 cup half and half
1 tsp. chopped fresh sage or 1/2 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup shredded smoked mozzarella
Preheat the broiler. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt. Cook the rigatoni until al dente.
Meanwhile, heat a large broiler-proof pan over medium heat. Add the sausage, breaking it up with your spoon/paddle. Stir in the garlic and cook until sausage has browned and garlic is fragrant.
Add the diced tomatoes, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for a few minutes before stirring in the half and half and the sage. Bring to a gentle simmer to thicken and season to taste again, if necessary.
Add the pasta to the sauce and stir to coat. Top with the smoked mozzarella. Put the pan under the broiler until cheese is browned and bubbly.
I'm currently having trouble displaying comments. Rest assured, I do receive (and love to get!) comments, but they are not displaying on the page. Please continue to comment and if you have a specific question, I will email you a response. Thank you!

Sussex is in the south east of England stretching along the English Channel from Rye in the east to Chichester Harbour and Emsworth in the west with many fine blue flag beaches in between.
The chalk downland of the South Downs cover a large part of Sussex from where they meet the sea at Beachy Head in East Sussex through to the Hampshire border near South Harting in the west.
Chichester is the cathedral city of Sussex and Brighton and Hove on the Sussex coast is considered to be one of the most cosmopolitan cities in Europe. Arundel and Lewes are two historic towns within the county both have imposing castles and are popular towns to visit.
The climate enjoyed in Sussex is above the average for Great Britain, which makes it ideal for visiting throughout the year.
Eastbourne is known as the sunshine coast and attracts some of the best weather in England. Everything is within easy reach. The lower slopes of the South Downs drop down from Beachy Head on to the magnificent promenade that stretches for almost two miles to Eastbourne's Victorian Pier. It is a town of tradition.
In the summer it comes alive with the very popular Airborne at Eastbourne together with the AEGON International Tennis, a tournament which attracts many of the world's top tennis players just prior to Wimbledon. The tournament in Devonshire Park is of course directly behind the apartment.
With its sheltered setting next to Beachy Head, Eastbourne also has some of the best Blue Flag beaches along the south coast, so with its excellent sunshine record Eastbourne makes for a wonderful holiday. A short distance to the east, the Sovereign Harbour Marina is one of the premier marinas in the south-east of England with many prestigious yachts moored here.
Beachy Head is a magnificent backdrop, with its dramatic chalk cliffs and gently undulating Downs. It is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and marks the start of the 100 mile South Downs Way and the South Downs National Park.
From Beachy Head there are breathtaking views over the English Channel and down to Eastbourne. The white cliffs would not be complete without mention of the Beachy Head Lighthouse, one of the most recognisable sites in the whole of England. A short distance further west is the Belle Toute Lighthouse an impressive sight on the top of the chalk cliffs and made famous by the BBC who used it for the filming of Fay Weldon's 'Life and Loves of a She-Devil'.
It looks down on the small community at Birling Gap which sadly is gradually disappearing through cliff erosion. Heading west from Birling Gap the chalk cliffs rise towards the famous Seven Sisters, one of the most photographed views in England, before reaching the river estuary at Cuckmere Haven. Here the ox-bow lakes within the river are perfect for canoeing and kayaking activity.
To the east of Eastbourne, Pevensey and Pevensey Castle are on the edge of the Pevensey Levels, another Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and important for its birdlife and wildlife. The Levels are bordered to the north by the small town of Hailsham where there is the magnificent castle at Herstmonceux as well as the Observatory Science Centre both close to Hailsham.

Current approaches include DNase-seq, a technique that combines sensitivity to the nonspecific endonuclease DNase I with high throughput sequencing to identify regions of regulatory DNA on a genome-wide scale. While this method was originally developed for human cell lines, later adaptations made the processing of plant tissues possible. Challenges still remain in processing recalcitrant tissues that have low DNA content. Results: By removing steps requiring the use of gel agarose plugs in DNase-seq, we were able to significantly reduce the time required to perform the protocol by at least 2 days, while also making possible the processing of difficult plant tissues. We refer to this simplified protocol as DNase I SIM (for simplified in-nucleus method). We were able to successfully create DNase-seq libraries for both leaf and root tissues in Arabidopsis using DNase I SIM. Conclusion: This protocol simplifies and facilitates generation of DNase-seq libraries from plant tissues for high resolution mapping of DNase I hypersensitive sites.

Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) function and DNA methylation (DNAme) are typically correlated with gene repression. Here, we show that PRC2 is required to maintain expression of maternal microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) from the Gtl2-Rian-Mirg locus, which is essential for full pluripotency of iPSCs. In the absence of PRC2, the entire locus becomes transcriptionally repressed due to gain of DNAme at the intergenic differentially methylated regions (IG-DMRs). Furthermore, we demonstrate that the IG-DMR serves as an enhancer of the maternal Gtl2-Rian-Mirg locus. Further analysis reveals that PRC2 interacts physically with Dnmt3 methyltransferases and reduces recruitment to and subsequent DNAme at the IG-DMR, thereby allowing for proper expression of the maternal Gtl2-Rian-Mirg locus. Our observations are consistent with a mechanism through which PRC2 counteracts the action of Dnmt3 methyltransferases at an imprinted locus required for full pluripotency.

In this paper, we report a fiber-optic carbon dioxide (CO₂) near-infrared (IR) absorption sensor with only 8-cm sensing length that is coated with nanoporous metalorganic framework material Cu-BTC (BTC = benzene-1,3, 5-tricarboxylate). The multimode optical fiber was etched by hydrofluoric acid to remove the cladding and part of the core, resulting in larger evanescent field to sense the near-IR absorption induced by the adsorbed CO₂. The Cu-BTC thin film with 100 nm thickness was then grown onto the ethced core through a stepwise layer-by-layer method. Our real-time measurement results show that the CO₂ detection limit is better than 500 ppm and the overall response time is 40 s for absorption and 75 s for desorption. To the best of our knowledge, this is the shortest near-IR fiber-optic sensor for CO₂ detection at 1.57-μm wavelength.

The MIML formulation can be applied in many domains. For example, in an image domain, bags are images, instances are feature vectors representing segments in the images, and the label sets are lists of objects or categories present in each image. Although many MIML algorithms have been developed for predicting the label set of a new bag, only a few have been specifically designed to predict instance labels. We propose MIML-ECC (ensemble of classifier chains), which exploits bag-level context through label correlations to improve instance-level prediction accuracy. The proposed method is scalable in all dimensions of a problem (bags, instances, classes, and feature dimension), and has no parameters that require tuning (which is a problem for prior methods). In experiments on two image datasets, a bioacoustics dataset, and two artificial datasets, MIML-ECC achieves higher or comparable accuracy in comparison to several recent methods and baselines.
