When and why was the Minority Student Program (MSP) started?
MSP was started in 1968 following the urban unrest in Newark and a call by Rutgers students for increased diversity. It was established by the law school faculty as part of its commitment to pursue an aggressive policy of equal opportunity for those who had historically been under-represented in law school and the legal profession. In the 10 years prior to the start of MSP, only 12 African-Americans had been admitted to Rutgers School of Law–Newark. At its inception the program enrolled African-Americans. This was later expanded to include other disadvantaged groups.
Has the MSP been successful in its efforts?
Yes! More than 2,500 members of MSP have graduated from Rutgers Law School and contribute to the legal profession and the broader society in myriad ways. MSP graduates include judges, legislators, presidential and gubernatorial appointees, mayors, and prominent members of the bar in public and private practice. The leadership and continued success of MSP alumni is a source of pride for the entire Rutgers community. Since the inception of the program, Rutgers–Newark has been one of the most diverse law schools in the country. MSP has served as a model for many other law schools that now offer programs and services for underrepresented groups.
Is MSP only for students of color?
No. Although originally geared toward students of color, the program is now open to any matriculated student, regardless of race or ethnic origin, who can demonstrate through a history of socio-economic, educational, or cultural experiences that he or she has been disadvantaged.
Why does the program continue to be called the Minority Student Program?
Our faculty has maintained the name "Minority Student Program" in order to recognize the historical significance of MSP, one of the first programs of its kind in the country. Although the MSP has been expanded to include disadvantaged students of any race or ethnic origin, the faculty believes it is important to retain the program's original name to honor that history.
How does one apply to MSP?
MSP is a post-admissions program. Every student may indicate on his/her Rutgers Law School application whether, if admitted to the law school, they want to be considered for admission to MSP.
If I did not originally express an interest in MSP on the application, but now think it is something I should participate in, can I still apply?
Yes. First- year students who apply during the first week of the Fall semester will be considered for admission. Interested students should submit a one-page essay describing the form(s) of disadvantage or discrimination that you have experienced that may impact your experience in law school. Please submit this essay to the Assistant Dean for MSP, Room 172.
What are the main components of MSP in the first year?
The components of MSP in the first year are Orientation, Facilitated Study Groups, and the Professional Development Program which includes the Summer Internship Program.
What is MSP Orientation?
MSP Orientation is a two-week orientation that occurs before the general orientation and, like the general orientation, is designed to provide students with a foundation for the study of law. Students are exposed to fundamental lawyering skills: case analysis, case briefing, rule synthesis, legal research and legal writing. Upper-class students and alumni serve on panels and lead discussion groups.
What are the Facilitated Study Groups?
The Facilitated Study Groups provide a structured group activity for students who as undergraduates have historically not had the experience of group study. The groups are led by an upper-class student whose main responsibility is to facilitate discussion between group members concerning issues raised by the course material. The facilitators also go over hypothetical questions taken from old exams that are available to all students in the library or from commercial sources. The "hypos" used by facilitators are placed on file in the library and are accessible to all students. (Reserve Section of the Law Library under Call Number: KF283.L442005)
What is the Professional Development Program?
MSP conducts workshops in partnership with the Office of Career Services to help students with job search preparation. These workshops are advertised and open to all students. Throughout the year MSP alumni are invited to serve on panels to speak about the legal profession and their career trajectories. This gives students the opportunity to build relationships and network with alumni. The MSP also sponsors a Summer Internship Program (SIP) which secures first summer opportunities for some MSP students with government, public interest and private sector organizations. (Students who do not participate in MSP Orientation and/or the Facilitated Study Groups may not participate in SIP).

I have just now completed my degree in Spatial Information Technology, and learned how to use the ARCGIS platform and QGIS. Now I wanted to create a server/client webpage using mapserver for a project work. In the future, I am planing to go more into the GIS developer side. Please advise on whether you think java or .net platform will be better for creating interactive web pages.
I would like to use opensource tools like mapserver rather than ArcGIS Server due to cost.
Thank you

Who was first person in history to do complete teshuva (repentance)?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
The Midrash (Bereishis Rabbah 84:19) says that it was Reuven. For this he was rewarded by having his descendant, the prophet Hosea, be the one to issue the call to teshuvah "Shuvah Yisrael" (Hos. 14:2, the haftarah of Shabbos Shuvah).
The commentary often attributed to the Rosh and sometimes to one of his students, to B'reshis 4:16 (after Kayin's banishment), reads:
Or, in my own, loose translation:
Avraham was Chozer Beteshuvah from a life of Idolatry to recognizing the true Boreh Olam (creator of the universe). See Rambam Hilchos Avodah Zorah.
(a) (R. Yirmeyah ben Elazar): The years that Adam ha'Rishon was in Niduy (excommunication due to his sin) he propagated damaging spirits. "Va'Ychi Adam Sheloshim u'Me'as Shanah va'Yoled bi'Dmuso k'Tzalmo", implies that before this, he fathered things not in his image.
(b) Question (Beraisa - R. Meir): [After he sinned] Adam ha'Rishon was a great Chasid. When he saw that death was decreed on the world through himself, for 130 years he fasted, separated from his wife (Kayin and Hevel were already born - Rashi Bereishis 4:1) and wore belts of fig shoots on his flesh [to afflict himself].

Getting Started with Embedded Java -- Sense, Control, Connect, Store, Sync
By Janice J. Heiss on Oct 03, 2011
Terrence Barr, Senior Technologist, Mobile & Embedded, Oracle Germany, presided over a two-hour HOL (Hands-On-Lab) on Monday in which he taught developers how to build an embedded Java solution that senses and controls the environment, stores data, and connects to back-end databases for synchronization and further processing. The session offered considerable detail along with step-by-step exercises as participants learned how to create the embedded EnviroTracker system and application which tracks and processes environmental data. The application interfaces with a microcontroller to read sensor input (ambient light brightness), to control output (and LED), and then further processes the sensor data.
The lab focused on:
• The benefits of Java technology in the embedded space
• The components of embedded Java platforms
• Setting up an embedded Java platform
• Interfacing between the embedded Java platform, the microcontroller, and I/O
• Accessing and controlling I/O from Java
• Processing sensor data
Barr took developers through seven basic tasks or exercises:
1. Create the EnviroTracker
2. Install the OJEC (Oracle Java ME Embedded Client) on the Development Host
The Oracle Java Micro Edition Embedded Client (OJEC) implements the CDC Platform configuration.
3. Develop and Test Your First Embedded Java Application..
4. Install OJEC on the Target Platform and Run Your Java Application
5: Understand I/O and the Arduino Microcontroller
6: EnviroTracker V1: First Contact
7: EnviroTracker V2: Continuous Monitoring and Processing
By the end of a rigorous and demanding, but satisfying two hours, attendees had built a real-world embedded system and created the EnviroTracker Application to track environmental sensor data. They learned how to install and use embedded Java runtimes and tools, and how to interface with I/O devices and microcontrollers from Java applications.
The take home message: Creating sophisticated embedded Java systems and applications is easy due to the platform independence of the Java language and runtime, the scalability of pre-existing Java skills to embedded development, and the comprehensive support provided by mature and feature-rich developer tools.

[OPEN-762] Problems with Sencha Touch on Samsung Galaxy
Hi, I am new to mobile phones, so forgive me if I post problems that can be resolved by changing phone settings. However, I cannot find anything yet. So here goes.
I have started testing our Sencha Touch application on a real phone (Samsung Galaxy) and I found a number of problems. All these problems are NOT happening in Google Chrome or on phone simulators. The problems are:
1) Password field in forms show real characters instead of stars
2) Audio and Video objects do not work. Audio control is shown without a button to play it and the video control shows the button but nothing happens when you click on it
3) When you enter data into text fields on forms the screen jumps up and down - when you enter one character the current field goes off the screen, but then comes back when you type the next character. I found a similar report on the forum but no resolution.
We need the resolution ASAP
10 Feb 2011 10:22 PM #2
This doesn't work in the Kitchen Sink sample applications either. Exactly the same problems - password fields are shown, video cannot be played and the screen jumps up and down when entering text.
Is this a bug or some settings in the phone? I am using Android 2.2 Froyo.
Any confirmation from the Sencha Team?
14 Feb 2011 3:09 AM #3
I found other problems on Samsung Galaxy.
- I have a toolbar with a button and a listener click function on the button. The code within the function is not executed, although it works fine on iPhone.
- The alert boxes are not closing when you press the close button. I noticed this in the TravelMate app (http://jag.gr/tm). Again, it works on iPhone.

Thanks in advance..Sameer Khan

Touch demos does not work on Samsung Galaxy Tab
I too have problems running touch on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1: None of the demos on the Sencha site works with the browser (is it Chrome?). Also, I have tried installing Opera and Firefox, just to rule out any specific problems with Chrome (?). But no, that didn't help at all - the screen comes out blank and the source shows the Touch code/script references
In fact, the Sencha web pages comes out partially blank.
Has the Galaxy Tab at all been tested with the Sencha products?
I was looking for a toolkit that would take care of the different browsers and ensure that the rendering was the same for the various browsers, but from what I have seen so far, Sencha doesn't seem to provide this functionality... Please tell me I'm wrong...

6 Reasons It's Time For Matthew McConaughey To Go Away
#4. Rooster McConaughey
However, at least he hasn't gotten all Hollywood, and by all accounts stays in touch with his roots. Unfortunately, that might be worse.
He has a brother named Rooster, whom he is so impressed by that he is developing a new Fox cartoon with him called Rooster Tales. It follows the hilarious adventures of a "redneck sheriff" who marries a younger Mexican woman and gets saddled with her 114-member family! A laugh riot! Matthew's excuse? "My brother's life is so unbelievable, we had to animate it."
And he has a point, as Rooster has, for example, legally named his kids Miller Lyte and Margarita Olympia, after two of his favorite beers, which is admittedly unbelievable for those who want to believe good things about humanity.
But you know who else's life is unbelievable? Animal hoarders. Are people clamoring for cartoons about them?
This isn't Rooster's first foray into show business. He had a brief stint on the reality series Black Gold, possibly due to the McConaughey good looks.
...or more likely the McConaughey relationship to Matthew McConaughey.
Black Gold was produced by the same people who explored the toughest, most dangerous jobs and the crazy people who do them in Deadliest Catch and Ice Road Truckers. In Black Gold, they explore the thrill-seeking badasses of the Texas oil scene, like Rooster McConaughey, pipe salesman.
That's right, he might not put out oil fires, or even drill wells, or even refine oil, but you know those big heavy pipes that have to go thousands of feet underground or cross hundreds of miles of barren land carrying their precious cargo? Well, he sells them to people. BAD. ASS.
#5. He Literally Cannot Support Himself
As Cracked has pointed out before with FDR, not being able to stand upright is a pretty damning character flaw, and Matthew McConaughey has it in spades. Or at least his characters do.
I am far from the first person to observe that he seems to require structural support in every movie poster but it is a truth that needs to be told.
As you can see, by 2020, he will have to appear in movies flat on his back, leaving him with roles like the victim in a CPR instructional video. If he can get a rom-com role, it'll probably be something like the guy in While You Were Sleeping, the one who was in a coma the entire movie to provide a plot device for Sandra Bullock to fall in love with Bill Pullman. Throw in a full-body cast and I'm sold.
#6. Nobody Can Spell His Goddamned Name
Just beginning with the title of this piece, I had to re-type his name six times trying to fucking spell
McConaghey McConnahey McConaughay McConaughey right. Did you see how many times I had to use his name in this article? I don't care if he did rescue puppies after Hurricane Katrina. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on.

The most appealing statement of the Bessis-Moussa-Villani conjecture is as follows:
Conjecture: For all Hermitian positive semidefinite $n\times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$, and all positive integer $m$, the polynomial function $$t \in \mathbb{R}\mapsto g(t) \equiv tr[(A + t B)^m] = \sum\limits_{ k=0}^m a_kt^k$$ has only nonnegative coefficients $a_k, k=1,\cdots,m$.
Most recent and past research concerns on the quantities $m$ and $n$. What about trying to prove the conjecture in the following way: first show that $a_m\ge0$, $a_0\ge0$, $a_{m-1}\ge0$, $a_1\ge0$, $a_{m-2}\ge0$, $a_2\ge0$. And then go on to show $a_3\ge 0$ (and so is $a_{m-3}\ge 0$)...
But it seems difficult to show $a_3\ge 0$. Can anyone share some idea on this particular coefficient?
UPDATED What is the largest term in $S_{2m,m}(AB)$ ? More precisely, consider the word in two positive definite letters $A^{k_1}BA^{k_2}B\cdots A^{k_m}B$ , where $(k1,k2,\cdots,k_m)$ is a pair of nonnegative integer solution of $k_1+k_2+\cdots+k_m=m$ . Is it true that $tr(A^{k_1}BA^{k_2}B\cdots A^{k_m}B)\le tr(A^mB^m)$ ?

Bruce Tall was announced as the defensive coordinator for the Charlotte 49ers on April 21. Tall comes to Charlotte from Michigan and has over 25 years of collegiate coaching experience under his belt.
Tall has worked as Michigan's Defensive Line Coach the last three years. With over 25 years of collegiate coaching experience, Tall adds another dose of veteran experience to the 49ers staff. Offensive Coordinator Jeff Mullen has 20 years of collegiate coaching experience.
"We are very excited about Coach Tall joining our staff," said Lambert. "He brings a wealth of defensive experience with him to the 49ers football program. He has coached at all levels of collegiate football. He was a coordinator at the FCS level at Harvard and Northeastern, and he's also coaches at the highest level with Michigan and West Virginia. Just as important, he has the character and integrity that we are looking for from all the people on our staff. We are thrilled to have him join us here in Charlotte."
Prior to his three-year stint at Michigan, Tall spent five bowl seasons as the safeties coach for Rich Rodriguez at West Virginia from 2003-07. While at West Virginia he helped the Mountaineers to the Fiesta Bowl in 2007, the Gator Bowl in 2003, 2004 and 2006 and the Sugar Bowl in 2005. In 2002, Tall coached the defensive line at Western Michigan.
A 1982 graduate of Ohio Wesleyan, Tall began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at his alma mater in 1982 before coaching full time as the linebackers coach in 1983 and 1984. After two seasons at Cornell (1985-86), Tall returned to Ohio Wesleyan for six seasons, eventually becoming the school's defensive coordinator.
He left Ohio Wesleyan for Northeastern, where he served as defensive coordinator from 1993-97. From Northeastern he moved to Harvard, where he was defensive coordinator and linebackers coach during his four-year tenure from 1998-2001.
A native of Shaker Heights, Ohio, Tall earned his degree in Health and Physical Education. He was a three-year letterwinner in football and also lettered one year in wrestling.
Tall has coached six All-Americans and received the 2001 Assistant Coach of the Year award from the Gridiron Club of Greater Boston. He is a Lifetime Achievement Award winner, granted by the All-American Football Foundation. Tall's football experience extends to the NFL, completing internships in Green Bay, Detroit, Chicago and Tampa Bay.
Tall and his wife, Karmen are the parents of three children: Braythan, Karsyn and Kallyn.

|McNay Family Director of Yale Sailing
Zack Leonard has been the Head Varsity Sailing Coach at Yale since 2002. Leonard has led the program to five national championships and to the 2009 Fowle Trophy for team of the year in college sailing. As an undergraduate at Yale, Leonard was named an All-American and served as the captain of the sailing team. Leonard started his collegiate coaching career in 1987 when he led the US Coast Guard Academy varsity sailing team during a leave of absence from Yale. From 1989 to 1992 he was head sailing coach at Brown University where the team won a Fowle Trophy. After a break from coaching, Leonard returned to Yale in the fall of 2000. Under his guidance, the Yale team began to steadily climb the national rankings. In 2002 the team was promoted from club to varsity status. During his tenure at Yale, Leonard has led the team to five ICSA National Championships and a total of 29 podium finishes at the national championships. Most recently, in the spring of 2014, Leonard coached the Bulldogs to wins at the Team Racing and Co-ed Dinghy National championships and a repeat win of the Fowle trophy. Since 2004 the Yale sailing team has produced 72 All-American Sailors. Yale student-athletes have also been successful in Olympic level competition. Isabelle Kinsolving '02 represented the United States in the 2004 Athens Olympics in the Women's 470 class, finishing 5th, while Stuart McNay '05 and Thomas Barrows '10 represented the United States and US Virgin Islands at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Mcnay again represented the US at the London Olympics along with Yalie Sarah Lihan. Leonard is a 4 time US Team Racing Champion (Hinman Trophy) and the UK Team Racing Champion (Wilson Trophy). He's won US and Canadian National Championships in the Tornado and a US title in the Vanguard 15. Outside college coaching, Leonard has served as the head coach of the US International 420 team since 2001, a coach of the US Olympic Sailing team at numerous world championships and a coach for the US squad at the 1993 Goodwill Games. During 2011 Leonard served as coach of the Women's 470 Class for the US Olympic team. Leonard was named the 2006 National Coach of the Year by US Sailing's Olympic Sailing Committee and currently serves as a member of the US Olympic Sailing Committee.

Computed Tomography (CT) Scan of the Body
Why It Is Done
CT scans are used to study areas of the body and the arms or legs.
- Chest (thorax). A CT scan of the chest can look for problems with the lungs, the heart, the esophagus , or the major blood vessel (aorta) or the tissues in the center of the chest. Some common chest problems a CT scan may find include infection, lung cancer, a pulmonary embolism, and an aneurysm. It also can be used to see if cancer has spread into the chest from another area of the body.
- Abdomen. A CT scan of the abdomen can find cysts, abscesses, infection, tumors, an aneurysm, enlarged lymph nodes, foreign objects, bleeding in the belly, diverticulitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and appendicitis.
- Urinary tract. A CT scan of the kidneys , ureters, and bladder is called a CT KUB or CT urogram. This type of scan can find kidney stones , bladder stones, or blockage of the urinary tract . A special type of CT scan, called a CT intravenous pyelogram (IVP), uses injected dye (contrast material) to look for kidney stones, blockage, growths, infection, or other diseases of the urinary tract.
- Liver. A CT scan can find liver tumors, bleeding from the liver, and liver diseases. A CT scan of the liver can help determine the cause of jaundice.
- Pancreas. A CT scan can find a tumor in the pancreas or inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis).
- Gallbladder and bile ducts. A CT scan can be used to check for blockage of the bile ducts. Gallstones occasionally show up on a CT scan. But other tests, such as ultrasound, usually are used to find problems with the gallbladder and bile ducts.
- Adrenal glands. A CT scan can find tumors or enlarged adrenal glands.
- Spleen. A CT scan can be used to check for an injury to the spleen or the size of the spleen.
- Pelvis. A CT scan can look for problems of organs in the pelvis. For a woman, these include the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. For a man, the pelvic organs include the prostate gland and the seminal vesicles.
- Arm or leg. A CT scan can look for problems of the arms or legs, including the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, ankle, or foot.
Other uses for a CT scan
A CT scan may be used to make sure a procedure is done correctly. For example, the doctor may use CT to guide a needle during a tissue biopsy or to guide the proper placement of a needle to drain an abscess.
For people with cancer, a CT scan can help determine how much the cancer has spread. This is called staging the cancer.
How To Prepare
Before the CT scan, tell your doctor if you:
- Are or might be pregnant.
- Are allergic to any medicines, including iodine dyes.
- Have a heart condition, such as heart failure.
- Have diabetes or take metformin (Glucophage) for your diabetes. You may have to adjust your medicine for a day before and after the test.
- Have had kidney problems.
- Have asthma.
- Have had multiple myeloma.
- Have had an X-ray test using barium contrast material (such as a barium enema) in the past 4 days. Barium shows up on X-ray films and makes it hard to see the picture clearly.
- Become very nervous in small spaces. You need to lie still inside the CT scanner, so you may need a medicine (sedative) to help you relax.

What is peripheral vascular disease?
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) refers to diseases of the blood vessels (arteries and veins) located outside the heart and brain. While there are many causes of peripheral vascular disease, doctors commonly use the term peripheral vascular disease to refer to peripheral artery disease (peripheral arterial disease, PAD), a condition that develops when the arteries that supply blood to the internal organs, arms, and legs become completely or partially blocked as a result of atherosclerosis.
What is atherosclerosis?
Atherosclerosis is a gradual process whereby hard cholesterol substances (plaques) are deposited in the walls of the arteries. Cholesterol plaques cause hardening of the artery walls and narrowing of the inner channel (lumen) of the artery. The atherosclerosis process begins early in life (as early as teens in some people). When atherosclerosis is mild and the arteries are not substantially narrowed, atherosclerosis causes no symptoms. Therefore, many adults typically are unaware that their arteries are gradually accumulating cholesterol plaques. But when atherosclerosis becomes advanced with aging, it can cause critical narrowing of the arteries resulting in tissue ischemia (lack of blood and oxygen).
Arteries that are narrowed by advanced atherosclerosis can cause diseases in different organs. For example, advanced atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries (arteries that supply heart muscles) can lead to angina and heart attacks. Advanced atherosclerosis of the carotid and cerebral arteries (arteries that supply blood to the brain) can lead to strokes and transient ischemic attacks (TIAs). Advanced atherosclerosis in the lower extremities can lead to pain while walking or exercising (claudication), deficient wound healing, and/or leg ulcers.
Atherosclerosis is often generalized, meaning it affects arteries throughout the body. Therefore, patients with heart attacks are also more likely to develop strokes and peripheral vascular disease, and vice versa.

5 Clearly Fake News Stories That Fooled the Media
#2. "LAPD Plans to Spend $1 Billion on Jet Packs for Officers"
The Story:
Back in 2010, the Los Angeles Police Department announced a big purchase to help put them on the cutting edge of maintaining awareness in crowded areas, reducing the spread of rioting and ensuring that kids still consider cops to be cool.
"Look, if I can't beat hippies senseless with this thing, I just don't see the point in any of it. Here's my badge."
When the Martin Jetpack from New Zealand became the first commercially available jet pack in the world, the LAPD announced plans to purchase 10,000 of these super-cool transporters, even though they cost around $100,000 each. Fox News' Fox & Friends morning show not only broke the story, but also became the first major news outlet to show complete bafflement about the appalling amount of money being spent by the city of LA on something so frivolous. For those of you who have trouble envisioning that many zeros, that's one billion dollars -- quite a chunk of change for a police department that hadn't even been able to afford new squad cars for years.
Maybe because they were saving for the sci-fi future force, duh.
They Believed It Because:
Republican, Democrat or other, we all love to hear stories of the government squandering our hard-earned tax money on frivolous, expensive toys. Yes, it was the conservative Fox News that reported it, but these stories are as old as journalism itself. Where is all of this tax money going, anyway?
The Truth:
To be fair, the anchors at Fox realized that they got the story wrong and issued a correction within an hour. However, they conveniently left out the most interesting part of their correction -- the original source. You see, the story came from the Weekly World News, a supermarket tabloid that purposely makes up far-fetched stories to draw in readers who don't know any better.
Of course it's trustworthy, it's got the word "reliable" right there next to Bat Boy's face.
If they'd bothered to dig a little deeper into the report, they would have noticed details that should have thrown up red flags -- such as the fact that the Martin Aircraft Company was "working on a second model that can take you to the moon." But really, why keep reading past the part that supports your political narrative? You've found your talking point, hurry up and get that shit on the air!
"Look, just CTRL+F 'murdered children' and 'Obama' and we'll take it from there."
#1. "Heroic Survivor to Face Animal Cruelty Charges Because He Hunted to Survive"
The Story:
Poor Jake Landon had become stranded in the harsh wilderness of the Adirondack Mountains after his truck skidded off a road. He slowly but determinedly made his way to civilization, keeping himself alive by killing fish and squirrels with a pointy stick.
When he finally made it through his ordeal and was released from the hospital, the state of New York chose that precise moment to kick Landon square in the balls by announcing that they would file criminal felony charges of "aggravated extreme animal cruelty" against him for the killing of "10 squirrels and [an] indeterminate number of fish." Because -- get this -- they had determined that he had raised his caloric requirements by actively trying to save himself rather than just staying put and waiting for rescuers to find him, thus requiring him to kill more animals than was necessary.
"'Wrestled a grizzly,' did you? 'Lost a hand,' hard man? That bear is a threatened species."
The outrage that this action prompted got a mention on an episode of ABC's This Week With David Brinkley. New York state's environmental agency was flooded with phone calls from angry citizens and reporters asking where they could find Landon to interview him. And according to the late newspaper columnist Mike Royko, it also received coverage by radio news announcer Paul Harvey and talk show host Rush Limbaugh.
They Believed It Because:
It's political correctness run amok! Again! See, we don't actually need to be sensitive to the environment, or wildlife (or minorities, or other religions, etc.), because every single complaint or lawsuit is really just a silly, frivolous bunch of whining devoid of all common sense! Now watch while we feed you example after example of hard-working, down-to-earth folk getting bullied over these ridiculous PC rules!
Turns out you CAN spell "freedom" without "accountability."
The Truth:
The story actually came from a right-wing magazine called Heterodoxy, written and compiled by the Center for the Study of Popular Culture (later known as the right-wing think tank the David Horowitz Freedom Center). The story was intended to be satirical fiction, a regular fictional feature by the article's author. Anyone who wasn't a subscriber or regular reader may not have been aware of this, since it wasn't clearly labeled as satire, but there were several very obvious tells within the story that could have been ferreted out by a long-forgotten method of research known as "reading the damned thing."
First of all, the mainstream media caught wind of the story after it was picked up by the Christian conservative American Family Association and printed in its Journal, which cited only the CSPC as a source and ran it alongside such informative headlines as "Disney Preaches Nature Religion" and "Coming Out ... to God (Former Homosexual Says Devotion to Jesus Gave Him the Power to Overcome His Sinful Behavior)."
"Lying is a sin, and I'd sure be lying to myself if I started sexing ladies. Praise Jesus!"
But digging a bit deeper than the source and the headline, the article mentions that the group "Humans for the Sensitive Treatment of Animals (HuSTA)" urged the state of New York to seek the criminal charges after scientists from the "Federal Animal Protection Bureau" found that killing an animal can cause fear and emotional harm in its fellow woodland creatures. Neither organization exists.
Though there does in fact appear to be a state in America called New York, so they did get that part right.

Six Current Football Players Join Antitrust Suit Against NCAA
Current Players From Arizona, Clemson, Minnesota and Vanderbilt Are Added to the Lawsuit
Six football players will be the first current college athletes involved in the ongoing antitrust lawsuit against the NCAA that could reshape the future of college sports, the plaintiffs' lawyers said Thursday night.
Arizona linebacker Jake Fischer, Arizona kicker Jake Smith, Clemson cornerback Darius Robinson, Minnesota tight end Moses Alipate, Minnesota wide receiver Victor Keise and Vanderbilt linebacker Chase Garnham join plaintiffs like former UCLA basketball star Ed O'Bannon and NBA legends Bill Russell and Oscar Robertson in suing the governing body of college sports, plus Electronic Arts and Collegiate Licensing Company, for a share of the revenue generated by the NCAA's deals with television networks and videogame makers.
Judge Claudia Wilken is expected to rule this summer on whether the case can be certified as a class-action suit, which could permit many former players to join the suit and expand the total damages into the billions of dollars.
Ever since July 5, when Wilken allowed the plaintiffs two weeks to amend their complaint and add a current NCAA athlete, observers of the case have been waiting to learn which college student would join the closely watched litigation.
As it turns out, there is more than one. The six new plaintiffs are all college seniors and football players, though the case involves Football Bowl Subdivision players and Division-I men's basketball players. None were household names among college-football fans before Friday.
"These athletes are incredibly brave," said Michael Hausfeld, the plaintiffs' attorney, in a news release. "They are well-aware of the risks of standing up to the NCAA, and yet they felt that this was the right thing to do."
NCAA attorneys said last week, before the six players were unveiled, that the association won't "retaliate" against any active college athletes suing the NCAA, calling the idea "offensive." Donald Remy, the NCAA's chief legal officer, said Friday in a news release that the "scheme to pay a small number of student-athletes threatens college sports as we know it" and that it would negatively affect "at least 96% of NCAA male and female student-athletes who do not compete in Division-I men's basketball or FBS football."

I'm working on the following problem: let $W_e$ be the computably enumerable set which is the domain of the $e$-th Turing program, and $K$ be the Halting problem, at which level of the arithmetic hierarchy does each of the following sets appear?
- $A_1=\{e: W_e$ contains no even numbers $\}$
- $A_2=\{e: W_e$ contains some element of $K\;\}$
- $A_3=\{e: W_e$ contains every element of $K\;\}$
- $A_4=\{e: W_e$ is infinite $\}$
I think $A_1 \in \Pi_1$ because it can written as $A_1=\{\exists x \in W_e (\forall n \neg (x=2n) )\}$, i.e. one universal and one bounded quantifier. I'm a little bit worried that the bounded set is c.e., does it change things?
Since $K \in \Sigma_1$ and $A_2=\{e: \exists x \in W_e (x \in K)\}$, $A_2$ is in $\Sigma_1$, but it's not $\Pi_1$ so it's not $\Delta_1$.
$A_3=\{e: \forall x \in K (x \in W_e)\}$ so it's $\Pi_1$
I'm not sure what to do with $A_4$
I would also like to view these sets in the context of Turing machine, but can't wrap my head around it.

Ubisoft and Sony planning full-length Rabbids feature filmWritten by: / / 4 Comments
Not content with spinning off into a game franchise of their own and taking over televisions with the 'Rabbids Invasion' TV series, Ubisoft's lovable Rabbids are headed to the big screen thanks to a partnership with Sony Pictures Entertainment.
There's a good chance you've played a Rabbids game in your gaming career, either when the furry, personality-filled and overly energetic creatures first made an appearance way back in 2006 in Rayman Raving Rabbids, or any of their later titles for Kinect, but the mischievous animals have since exploded into a range of merchandise while also appearing in 'The Rabbids Time Machine,' an attraction at France's second-biggest theme park, Futuroscope, which Ubisoft says "drew big crowds and rave reviews on its opening weekend."
The time is right, it seems, for the Rabbids to star in their own movie. President of Production for Columbia Pictures, Hannah Minghella, agrees saying of the creatures and their imminent feature film appearance:
"There is an infectious quality to the Rabbids. Their simple joy and absurd, anarchic behaviour inadvertently causes you to look at the world afresh. There's no end to the comedy and chaos they will cause when they invade our theatres."
Would you watch a feature film based on the antics of the crazed Rabbids?

We have a desktop web app which we wanted to extend to Tablet device. When we changed the layout to fit the tablet, the interface got cluttered and unusable. We are thinking of doing a different design to remove unwanted stuff and keep only those features which a tablet user generally uses. Is it better to have a separate UI for a tablet/mobile to provide a good UX?
It's precisely because you only '
The fact is you can't just change the layout of a desktop app and expect that to transistion suddenly to different type of device with a different set of constraints, a different set of capabilities and with users that have a different set of behaviours and a different set of expectations.
You have to consider the bigger picture - the customer journey map that says how users arrive, use, engage, and leave your application on the tablet or mobile devices.
You have to design for the mobile experience, the use patterns, the location, the orientation, the sensors, and the decreased screen real estate - it's a completely different mindset than designing for desktop.
But as well as optimizing for the mobile device, you also have to be consistent with the desktop version. Yes they conflict sometimes, nobody is saying this stuff is easy.
Maybe one or two things are unlikely to be used in the mobile workflow, and they can be removed for tablet/mobile but in the process, ask yourself 'were they really needed in the first place'?.
Users who move between desktop and mobile versions may well be frustrated to find features missing on the mobile version so try not to remove features that do get used - sure, make them available, but don't make everything fight for space - be clever about the way the mobile experience is defined and designed.
In the process you may well learn something about your product that can feed back in to the desktop version. Designing within constraints really helps to focus on what is important. Look at the things you're considering removing, ask why was that feature ok to remove and not another, why was it there, who uses it, how does it get used? Question everything. Get user feedback.
You have to see the bigger picture when trying to provide what you might term a cross-channel experience - you're not designing for different users - it's the same user! It's not even really cross channel - it should be channel-less
Honestly I could go on for hours...In short - don't think of it as a different layout - think of it as a different experience.
In addition to mere layout problems, i.e. having much information on the screen that comes with transferring an application on to a device with a compromised screen size it also depends on the application you're developing and which user interactive controls it utilizes.
If the design pattern of an applications GUI heavily relies on desktop specific features (hovering, fine direct manipulation, multiple modal windows etc...) it will not work well for a hand held device, if at all.
If this is the case you would have to develop additional versions of the web app to have it accessible to hand held devices.
In my opinion, yes. It is better to develop different UI for mobile/tablet. Imagine a 1000px width information to be read in mobile device. As a user you would want minimal scroll when you are using handheld devices. The desktop design is built for larger resolutions. Therefore it is not a good idea to squeeze the same design into a smaller resolution device.
After all readability/usability is key in mobile UI development.
Here are some useful link you might want to read before considering my opinion.
Why Separate Mobile & Desktop Web Pages?
The majority of web sites/apps will greatly benefit having a UI designed specifically for a device. Since it's not practical to create a design for every device out there, my general rule would be to develop four designs: mobile (smartphone), small tablet (Kindle Fire), large tablet (iPad), and desktop.
I noticed in your comment above you discuss creating separate code bases for each site. This is unnecessary duplication. I recommend looking into responsive design or at least creating different stylesheets to target devices.
If you're unfamiliar with responsive design, I recommend reading the brief Wikipedia page and check out the references.
A great responsive example site is Food Sense. It has four different states, which you can easily view as you re-size your browser window.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.
We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.
You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:
Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.
If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.
Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.
But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?
Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.
Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.

In this paper, we discuss how a technique borrowed from defense and manufacturing is being deployed in hospitals across the industrialized world to investigate clinical errors. We open with a discussion of the levers used by policy makers to mandate that clinicians not just report errors, but also gather to investigate those errors using root cause analysis (RCA). We focus on the tensions created for clinicians as they are expected to formulate 'systems solutions' that go beyond blame. In addressing these matters, we present a discourse analysis of data derived during an evaluation of the NSW Health Safety Improvement Program. Data include transcripts of RCA meetings which were recorded in a local metropolitan teaching hospital. From this analysis we move back to the argument that RCA involves clinicians in 'immaterial labour', or the production of communication and information, and that this new labour realizes two important developments. First, because RCA is anchored in the principle of health care practitioners not just scrutinizing each other, but scrutinizing each others' errors, RCA is a challenging task. Second, thanks to turning the clinical gaze in on the clinical observer, RCA engenders a new level of reflexivity of clinical self and of clinical practice. We conclude with asking whether this reflexivity will lock the clinical gaze into a micro-sociology of error, or whether it will enable this gaze to influence matters superordinate to the specifics of practice and the design of clinical treatments; that is, the over-arching governance and structuring of hospital care. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

Mattel gets a CPSIA waiver
posted at 9:30 am on August 28, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
After consumers discovered an influx of lead-tainted toys imported by Mattel and other companies, Congress acted to strengthen protections through the Consumer Protection Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). The legislation created almost impossible hurdles for small manufacturers and resellers for testing products, while earlier this month the CPSC announced it would send inspectors fanning out across the USA to enforce the laws in thrift shops. Now one of the companies that created the problem in the first place has gotten a waiver from the CPSIA's requirements for third-party testing:
Toy-makers, clothing manufacturers and other companies selling products for young children are submitting samples to independent laboratories for safety tests. But the nation's largest toy maker, Mattel, isn't being required to do the same.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission recently, and quietly, granted Mattel's request to use its own labs for testing that is required under a law Congress passed last summer in the wake of a rash of recalls of toys contaminated by lead. Six of those toys were produced by Mattel Inc., and its subsidiary Fisher-Price. …
Mattel is getting a competitive advantage, Green said, because smaller companies must pay independent labs to do the tests. Testing costs can run from several hundred dollars to many thousands, depending on the test and the toy or product.
Mattel had to recall more than 2 million toys from the market after inspectors discovered lead in the imported products. Now they claim that their "firewalled" labs will protect consumers and block out "corporate influence". Where are the labs that Mattel will use? Mexico, Malaysia, Indonesia, and China — and China is where the dangerous toys originated.
Mattel gets to test its own products. People like Suzi Lang have to pay laboratories to certify their hand-made products contain no lead or phthalates, which she already knows because she handpicks her materials. Thrift stores have to either test products for resale or confirm that they have not been recalled, on an individual basis. But the company that caused the biggest problem that led to the CPSIA gets a waiver. How convenient … and unjust.

Sigh. Although I suppose that ad was for the TV broadcast, not whether it was streamed or not.
You're right EricHG31 that was just about the tv broadcast. Still I'm writing to these people and complain about it. I'm an Italian taxpayer and I pay Rai a lot of money every year so I expect to be able to see what I pay for. Since this channel doesn't reach the whole country yet they should at leat have showed it in streaming.
Luckily today there's the Bolshoi Gala....

"Mariinsky, you are The Biggest Losers!"
Posted 30 October 2011 - 04:40 PM
Ha, I couldn't have put it better myself! It's too bad that the Mariinsky, which partly for sentimental reasons is still my favorite ballet company, seems to be stubbornly missing out on the potential that these works have brought the Bolshoi, Scala, etc--especially since they pretty much started the trend.
This production is *stupendous*, surely the ballet event of the year. I hate to complain, but I can't wait to be able to see a better quality version than what's on YT, but even so, I've watched it all the way through twice, and certain sections countless times now. It honestly is a dream come true to be able to see the original (more or less) intention of this ballet--and so well danced and performed (and with a pretty decent filming as well, no fancy "arty" camera angles or shots).
It's always interesting how often when one returns to the source, you realize that what people for years have said makes no sense, only to find that it *does* all work. (This makes me think that the K Sergeyev Petersburg production getting rid of the White Lady was a huge mistake, particularly when her theme is so clearly stated in Glazunov's music). A beautiful testament to all involved, in 1898 and now--and thrilling to see (I admit I even teared up a bit, something I rarely do in Raymonda even though I've always loved the ballet and score).

Shoulder pain is any pain in or around the shoulder joint.
Pain - shoulder
The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body. A group of four tendons in the shoulder, called the rotator cuff, give the shoulder a wide range of motion.
Swelling, damage, or bone changes around the rotator cuff can cause shoulder pain. You may have pain when lifting the arm above your head or moving it forward or behind your back.
The most common cause of shoulder pain occurs when rotator cuff tendons become trapped under the bony area in the shoulder. The tendons become inflamed or damaged. This condition is called rotator cuff tendinitis.
Shoulder pain may also be caused by:
Sometimes, shoulder pain may be due to a problem in another area of the body, such as the neck or lungs. This is called "referred pain." There is usually no pain when moving the shoulder.
Here are some tips for helping shoulder pain get better:
Sudden shoulder pain can sometimes be a sign of a heart attack. Call 911 if you have sudden pressure or crushing pain in your shoulder, especially if the pain runs from your chest to the left jaw, arm or neck, or occurs with shortness of breath, dizziness, or sweating.
Go to the hospital emergency room if you have just had a severe injury and your shoulder is very painful, swollen, bruised, or bleeding.
Call your health care provider if you have:
Your health care provider will perform a physical exam and closely look at your shoulder. You will be asked questions to help the provider understand your shoulder problem.
Blood or imaging tests may be ordered to help diagnose the problem.
Your provider may recommend treatment for shoulder pain including:

Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra harpist Barbara Dechario will perform during the Dec. 4 joint concert.
GENESEO, N.Y. - A joint concert by the Geneseo Chamber Singers, Spectrum Women's Ensemble and Geneseo String Band will feature masterworks by Benjamin Britten and J.S. Bach at 3 p.m. Dec. 4 in Wadsworth Auditorium. The concert is free and open to the public.
The Chamber Singers and Spectrum are both directed by Gerard Floriano, professor of conducting at Geneseo. Spectrum will perform Benjamin Britten's beloved "Ceremony of Carols," featuring Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra harpist Barbara Dechario.
Britten composed the work on a perilous crossing of the Atlantic Ocean during the height of World War II in 1942. Making use of only three treble voice parts and harp, Britten created sonorities that, though reassuringly familiar now, were unprecedented then. The published score calls for boys (trebles), although the earliest sketches suggest a preference for women's voices, and Spectrum Women's Ensemble is happy to oblige. Britten's decision of the harp for accompaniment may have been the result of his bringing along for the long voyage a couple of how-to manuals on harp composition to help him get started on a newly commissioned harp concerto.
"It is one of the happy ironies of art that such a dangerous and dark time should produce a work of such optimism and joy," said Floriano.
The other major work on the program will be Bach's baroque, virtuosic masterpiece, "The Magnificat." Accompanied by chamber orchestra, members of the Geneseo Chamber Singers will perform the solo movements. The work opens with an ebullient orchestral introduction featuring heraldic trumpets and timpani drums, which sets the scene for elegant arias, rousing choruses and expressive solo ensembles.
Also on the program is Brahms' "Four Songs for Women's Choir and 2 Horns and Harp" as well as traditional music of the season performed by the Geneseo String Band, under the direction of Lecturer of Music Jim Kimball.
Additional information about the concert is available by calling 585-245-5824.

Thyroid Hormone Dosing
Last Modified: August 14, 2012
In the last 12 months, I have gone from 125 micrograms up to 200 micrograms. Now I take 150 micrograms 4 days per week and 175 micros 3 days. Won't this adversly affect my bones? What is a comfortable dose and how can I tell if I am being "over treated"?
Kolin Hoff, MD, Endocrinologist at Penn Medicine responds:
Usually if a patient is free of thyroid cancer for several years the TSH can be brought into the low end of normal to mid normal. Regulating the TSH can at time be difficult it is important to be on a steady dose for 6 week between TSH checks and to take the dose regularly and to be sure you are not taking any interfering substances when you take the thyroid hormone like iron, calcium, soy. Sometimes changing brands helps and sometime patients need to be checked for malabsorption.

MVC Unit Testing Guide no longer works with Ext 4.2.0
After upgrading to Ext 4.2.0, I find the MVC Unit Testing Guide to no longer work. Specifically I get the following error in Chrome:
Uncaught Ext.app.Application.constructor(): [Ext.app.Application] Name property is required
In the guide, app-test.js creates an Ext.app.Application object with a config object, and the name property is set. However looking at the Ext 4.2.0 source for app.Application, the constructor now tests for the name property to be set without calling Ext.apply() on the config object first.
I see that the Ext 4.1.1a version (which worked fine for me) of this constructor used Ext.apply() to apply the config object and then tests that the name property was set.
2 Apr 2013 9:56 AM #2
Hi wgrant,
Can I see some code please?
3 Apr 2013 10:11 AM #3
From the guide on Unit Testing in Ext JS 4.2.0 docs:
Ext.require('Ext.app.Application'); var Application = null; Ext.onReady(function() { Application = Ext.create('Ext.app.Application', { name: 'AM', controllers: [ 'Users' ], launch: function() { //include the tests in the test.html head jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(new jasmine.TrivialReporter()); jasmine.getEnv().execute(); } }); });

It seems that this:
Ext.create('Ext.app.Application', { <your config> };
/** * Creates new Application. * @param {Object} [config] Config object. */ constructor: function(config) { var me = this; //<debug> if (Ext.isEmpty(me.name)) { Ext.Error.raise("[Ext.app.Application] Name property is required"); } //</debug> ... },
I have, however, found a way to get the Unit Testing example working by using the following code in app-test.js:
Ext.require('Ext.app.Application'); var Application = null; Ext.application({ name: 'AM', controllers: [ 'Users' ], /* * setting this option to true will make Ext.ComponentQuery.query be able to find your * application's components without having to construct them separately in your tests, * but will also render these components below your Jasmine report */ autoCreateViewport: false, launch: function() { Application = this; //include the tests in the test.html head jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(new jasmine.TrivialReporter()); jasmine.getEnv().execute(); } });
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,

I have utilized your method for setting up Jasmine.
Does it mean that I can not test 'refs' that are views?
I have something similar to this:
Ext.define('MyApp.controller.MyController', { extend:'Ext.app.Controller', views:['MyView'], refs:[ { ref:'myView', selector:'my_view' } }
describe("My controller refs", function(){ var MyController = null; beforeEach(function(){ if(!MyController){ MyController = MyApp.getController('MyController'); } }); /* this test passes*/ it("should define a myView", function() { var myView = MyController.getView("MyView"); expect( myView ).toBeDefined(); }); /* this test fails, myView is undefined*/ it("should define a myView ref", function() { var myView = MyController.getMyView(); expect( myView ).toBeDefined(); }); }

i suggest you take a look at Ext Spec, since it is designed for testing Ext JS applications. It uses Jasmine for setup and matching, but adds a lot of Ext JS specific syntax.
Your unit test code would look something like this:
describe("My controller refs", function() { 'use strict'; var controller, esj = ExtSpec.Jasmine; beforeEach(function() { this.addMatchers(esj.Matchers); controller = ExtSpec.create('MyApp.controller.MyController'); }); /* this test should pass*/ it("should define a MyView", function() { expect(controller).toHaveView('MyView'); }); /* this test passes too*/ it("should define a myView ref", function() { expect(controller).toHaveRef('myView'); }); });
As far as i know, boths tests only test that the controller has defined a MyView view and a myView ref, not that the application will return the correct view or any view at all.
The Ext Spec documentation contains a lot of information on how to set up your tests for Ext JS applications.
For testing defined resources specifically, see the part on Resource Matchers.
I hope this helps. I'm sorry i have no pure Jasmine solution for you. However, if you have an application set up with Jasmine, using Ext Spec isn't that difficult anymore
I use Ext Spec/Jasmine in combination with the Karma test runner. It works great for me. You also might want to take a look at that
Good luck and happy coding!
2 Oct 2013 7:05 AM #7
I'm trying to do the same thing: karma in combo with ExtSpec and Jasmine.
But I'm having trouble with this. Do you have a small example project where I can see how you set this up?
kind regards,
17 Dec 2013 11:58 PM #8
I created a blog entry on how to use Sencha Touch and Karma Test Runner. Should work the same for ExtJS: http://ronaldxq.blogspot.de/2013/12/...-or-extjs.html

Please update Unit Testing Guide
It is very frustrating to spend some time trying to follow the guide only to discover that it no longer works. Either put a warning that it doesn't work with 4.2+, or preferably update it.Thank you

Officer Jerry Corbitt, with the Bowling Green Police Department speaks both English and Vietnamese.
Corbitt says, "It's really beneficial for the police department as well as the city to have officers who speak a second language, or who are bilingual."
Officer Corbitt says if an officer can't communicate with a victim or suspect, the department has a language line that can help. However, there may be a delay, so he says having an officer speak the language is easier and others in the community agree.
Karl Miller, the co-founder and co-president of Keen Intuitions, a company that provides the Bowling Green Police Department with classes on the Spanish language and Hispanic culture.
Miller says, "A lot of times I think some international individuals may commit an offense or something we see as an offense, but in their country, it would be seen differently."
Miller says in the past two years, around 25 officers have taken the class and hopes it provides the officers with a greater understanding of the people in the community.

Time for Diaz, Esdaile to leave ranks of NAACP
I have been waiting for someone to respond to Victor Diaz' Dec. 1 letter, "Waterbury NAACP has accomplished much for its members," and I am shocked that with all the negative talk about his leadership and the present condition of the Waterbury NAACP branch, no one has done so.
Mr. Diaz has failed miserably, but so have all of the members who have done nothing to change even one thing that has been wrong with the Waterbury NAACP branch under the leadership of Mr. Diaz and Monroe Webster for the past five years. I resigned in January 2008 to work as a volunteer on then-Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign.

Can someone share what I need to know to pass the A1 or A2 exams from Goethe Institut?
For instance, do I need to know
- all cases (nominative, accusative, dative, genitive)?
- the past form of every verb?
- the separable prefix ver-?
- etc.
Can someone share what I need to know to pass the A1 or A2 exams from Goethe Institut?
For instance, do I need to know
I have learned German starting from A1 and till C1 level. If you want to pass either of A1 or A2 exam you do not have to know a lot. At A1 level you should be able to use simple sentence structures and basic grammar and little vocabulary. This is a little description of what you should know:
After completing the A2 level, students can understand sentences and frequently used expressions related to areas of most immediate relevance (e.g. very basic personal and family information, shopping, local geography, employment). They will be able to communicate in simple tasks requiring a direct exchange of information on familiar and routine matters. Students can describe in simple terms aspects of his/her background, immediate environment and matters in areas of immediate need.
hmm.., i often read that pass A1 or A2 is easy. but when i take a look at the sample at http://www.goethe.de/lrn/prj/pba/bes/ft1/mat/enindex.htm, i think it is hard. if people have not see the above sample, and just self study from 1-2 books for 3 months, maybe he/ she will not pass. so maybe easy for someone is not same to other people :)
perhaps after i take the exam, i will try describe more in detail. example: - how many min nouns, verb or adjective you should know? - what most case ask/ use in the exam? etc...
Thank you for your interest in this question.
