Taking research personally
One goal in picking a topic for my senior honors thesis was to combine an issue of personal relevance with a close study of a writer's works, biography, and the environment that surrounded him or her while writing. I asked some of my family members about existing research on our Irish roots, and my grandfather told me that his father emigrated from Inisheer, the smallest of Ireland's Aran Islands, around 1900.
I was intrigued. Many writers have studied and visited these islands because the inhabitants have preserved traditions for hundreds of years, despite modern advances on the mainland. Irish writers have found inspiration in the extremely isolated feel of the culture and the difficult, weathered lifestyle that Aran Island life demands.
Jonathan M. Synge, for example, is noted for his piece "The Aran Islands," written after he spent five summers living with a family on the middle island, Inishmaan. Synge began his work around 1900, just after my great-grandfather's emigration to Boston. By reading Synge's work, I hoped to learn about my great-grandfather's lifestyle. Yet, in any narrative, one is never sure of the degree to which the writer has related fact, observation, or personal deduction. I knew if I could visit the Aran Islands and compare Synge's writing with my own research and observation, I could become a primary researcher, rather than one who relies solely on the work of others.
UROP helped make this happen. My expense award made it possible to spend one month in Ireland, comparing other Irish writing with Synge's, and searching for clues to link my family to the Aran Islands. As part of my project, I kept a journal of my interactions and observations of island life. It served as an ethnographic study of sorts, including history alongside my own experiences.
Through Irish census, birth, and marriage records, I located a family history research center in Galway. I was surprised to find my great-grandfather did not come from Inisheer, as our family had always thought. He came from Eddy Island, a smaller isle near the Arans, just off the west coast of Galway. Only seven families lived there at the height of its population, but the Eddy Islanders' lifestyle showed similarities to that of Aran Island.
After this discovery, I contacted descendents of the six other families that once lived on Eddy Island. These people have been a great resource for my project, relaying the history they have collected. But this relationship did not end with my research. My family has started planning an Eddy Island descendents reunion two summers from now. Thanks to support from UROP, I have been able to teach Irish-American Keanes about Eddy Island and correct a familial history that has been passed down orally for three generations.

The temporal dynamics of bacterial communities across human anterior nares
E-mail firstname.lastname@example.com; Tel. (+49) 531 6181 4200; Fax (+49) 531 6181 4499.
The anterior nares (nostrils), are an important niche for bacterial colonization by both commensals and opportunistic pathogens. Here the temporal dynamics and variation of the global nasal bacterial community across 25 healthy volunteers was evaluated over 15 months. Overall, there was a global seasonal shift in bacterial community structure. Such a temporal shift was also strongly evident in the abundances of species such as Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis. However, such species dynamics over time was also inter-individual-dependent, and both individuals with highly stable communities and those with highly flexible communities could be defined. Even though the bacterial community of individual volunteers was thus generally variable over time and permanent carriage of a given species was seldomly observed, various species previously defined as constituting the core bacterial community could be identified as persistent in a subset of the volunteers suggesting that these same species also constitute to a 'temporal' core community.

- Oxford of the East's book havens losing out on their readers
Recently, as we celebrated World Book Day, we noted that some of Pune's popular bookstores wore a forlorn look. A slightly bored Narendra Chandan, owner of a 20-year-old book store, waited for book lovers to come and shop at the ongoing sale at his store. About 50 meters away, at another well-known book shop on FC Road, the scene was the same. So, where exactly are the people we see thumbing through the latest best-sellers while they sip their coffee at high-end cafés? They are perhaps browsing through various titles online and waiting for the COD orders at home. The convenience of online shopping It came as a surprise for Preeti Kulkarni, a student, when she found that two branches of a popular bookstore shut shop in the city in a span of just a month. "I can't walk in bookstore aisles and smell books before I buy them online. It is so annoying that stores are closing down," she posted on her social media account. "I am heartbroken over the fact that people don't enjoy the feel of a good bookstore anymore," she quips. Preeti, who has published some of her works on an app that allows young writing enthusiasts to share their works with the world, belongs to the category of book lovers that still enjoys visiting bookstores, sniffing new books and rejoicing at the sight of a new edition of their favourite ones. Millennials now find it convenient to look for a title online and sit back until the courier guy drops it home. Even downloading the e-book on their e-readers and reading it all through the night is an option.Sapna Sarfare, a city-based advertising professional, believes that the shift happened because people find it easier to look for books online. "I think it is also due to the fact that many who want to buy some offbeat books can now find them online. Ihave noticed that bookstores mostly keep popular titles on their shelves. In fact, I was surprised when I wanted to pick Stephen King's books but could not find the collection even at a very popular bookstore chain in the city." Bookstores heading to closure The first threat to local as well as chain bookstores came through the boom in sales of pirated copies of best-sellers. The cost-effectiveness of these mass-market books made them a better option to choose from, over the better-quality, but expensive original prints. The same strategy was then used by online portals that began selling books a few years ago. "Online is a threat to all trades," says Narendra, adding, "Many people are unaware of the fact that the overall cost of books has increased as online stores need to give bigger discounts to their customers. This has badly affected our business as we are unable to give that kind of discount. We have storage and maintenance to take care of, which online stores need not bother about." At his store, Narendra keeps second-hand as well as new books, all of which come at a discount. "I try and keep book titles that you won't find at the chain bookstores or online. For example, I have the entire original set of Harry Potter series in hardcover and paperback that I purchased from recently-closed down bookstores in the UK," he informs. But that doesn't really help him keep the store running as it did in the past. "My shop might be in the basement, but I have managed to keep it alive for 20 years now. Since the last two years, I've seen sales drop by almost 50-60 percent; there's no growth anymore. Bookstores won't really close down, but the sales will remain stagnant at 10-25 percent henceforth. People are buying books, but not from the around-the-corner bookstore anymore; that's all," he adds with a nonchalant shrug. Books abound, but lesser customers City-based working professional Abhijeet Doye feels that the closing of bookstores is a direct result of competition from e-commerce. "A sizable amount of people still prefer hard copies of books than the e-book variety, although the latter is cheaper. But millennials are adopting the idea very fast. The lessening of sales at popular bookstores is less related to the e-book format but more to discounts given by e-commerce. These websites have made it uneconomical for bookshops to operate. Online websites are in service for many years now; they started with e-book options recently. But it's just convenient to purchase online, I haven't purchased from bookstores for years now." Like Abhijeet there are many who have turned to online giants for their regular dose of best-sellers, which means that there is no personal relationship shared by store owners with their loyal customers. "We opened our book store in the 1940s and we now have the third generation of book lovers picking up their favourite titles from us. It's a special bond that we share with them, but there's certainly been a dip in the sales in the past few years. Those who still come to us to purchase books, talk about how they miss the interaction and personal recommendations that happen at an actual bookstore. Virtually, there's no sense of belonging or bonding, it's very mechanical and people are annoyed about the lack of emotional attachment, but that is not resulting in increase in our sales," reveals Rohit Jerajani, owner of a 70-year-old bookstore. Jerajani holds author interactions for his regular clients. He also emails monthly reviews of 25 titles to them. Sadly, these efforts fall short to beget more sales. Sunil Gadgil, owner of a bookstore that was established in 1954, admits that advertising about the store, holding regular sales and stocking popular regional titles too hasn't resulted in better sales. "Business has dropped by almost 40 percent. We have very few walk-in customers and most of them come looking for Marathi books, although we stock popular titles in English as well. Most of our English-reading customer base has turned to online, given the heavy discounts. Marathi titles are relatively cheaper, hence, we do find some customers visiting for them."

The company has been mentioned as an attractive M&A target by both Olney and Rodis. BancorpSouth on Jan. 24 closed a public offering of 10,952,381 common shares at a price of $10.50, raising $109.3 million, before expenses. The company had $13 billion in total assets as of Dec. 30, and reported net income for 2011 of $37.6 million, or 45 cents a share, increasing from $22.9 million, or 27 cents a share, in 2010. The 2010 results reflected an income tax benefit of $8.7 million, while the company paid $4.5 million in taxes during 2011. The provision for credit losses declined to $130.1 million in 2011, from $204.0 million in 2010. The ROA for 2011 was .028%, and the ROA was 3.03%, according to HighlineFI.

Jefferies analyst Emlen Harmon has a neutral rating on BancorpSouth, saying on Feb. 1 that aside from the improvement in the company's credit quality, "core earnings power heads lower as interchange legislation had a greater than expected impact on fees, expenses reset higher across a number of categories, and loans contracted more than initially forecast" for the fourth quarter.

Designed to foster excitement and dialogue between a diverse group of participants, the festival provides intimate access to world-class photographers and their work through innovative workshops, classes and presentations. InVision leverages the unique attractions, history and landscape of the surrounding region and celebrates its diverse artistic and cultural community. More info coming soon! For more information and to get involved contact Stacie Brennan, Senior Director Visual Arts at email@example.com . 2015 Olympus InVision College Photo Competition Winners Announced ArtsQuest and Olympus America Inc. have announced the winners of the 2015 Olympus InVision College Photography Contest, highlighting the work of students from universities throughout the Northeast. Capturing first place in this year's competition was Glenn D. Koehler Jr. of Northampton Community College for his image from the Flaming Lips show at Musikfest Aug. 7, 2015. "When I first started taking photography seriously, looking at composition and framing, I was working with a 1.3 megapixel digital camera. Things have come a long way since then, and my appreciation for photography has only grown fonder," says Koehler. "The study of how light can affect the world around us and what details can lie in the shadows have enamored me more and more as I've gotten older. The entire Flaming Lips concert was full of surreal imagery and magical music, and I hope I captured the essence of that with my photograph." This year's College Photography Contest was judged by Rick Smolan, a former Time, Life and National Geographic photographer who's best known as the co-creator of the Day in the Life book series. The works selected for the Photography Contest exhibition are on display at the Banana Factory, 25 W. Third St., Bethlehem, through Dec. 13. The complete list of winners in the 2015 Olympus InVision College Photography Contest is: First Place ($1,500 prize) Glenn D. Koehler Jr. of Bethlehem, PA "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots," Digital Print Northampton Community College Second Place ($1,000) Sathya Ram of Bethlehem, PA "Solo," Inkjet Print Lehigh University Third Place ($500) Sean Roberts of Kutztown, PA "Child 3," Archival Inkjet Print Kutztown University Presenting Partner Partners

This study gives a full treatment of the network characterisation of multi-port planar circuits embedded in shielded stratified media with an integrated approach to lumped ports and wave ports. The details of the mathematical formulation for the retrieval of scattering parameters are given in three cases: networks possessing only lumped ports, networks possessing only wave ports and networks with a combination of both types. A detailed description of the computer algorithm is presented to help the reader easily reproduce our results. The implementation of combined ports in the framework of planar multi-layered structures is particularly useful in analysing systems that have waveguide connections and planar circuitries in their structure, such as cavity-backed antennas and their associated feeding systems, dielectric resonator antennas or compound microwave filters. In such structures one can divide the system into the waveguide structure and the planar circuitries and analyse each part separately with an appropriate and efficient numerical technique. Network characterisations will be consequently communicated at the port interfaces. This strategy enhances the total performance of the computational scheme to a great extent, while not affecting the accuracy of the full-wave analysis.

Arizona to rent marching band for AdvoCare V100 Bowl
Three universities will be represented in Tuesday's AdvoCare V100 Bowl in Shreveport, La.
In the gridiron matchup, Arizona will face off against Boston College at Independence Stadium. But at halftime, the Boston College marching band will share the spotlight with Northwestern State's marching band, who has been hired to fill in for the Arizona band, according to Fox 33 News in Shreveport.
The university, which located in Natchitoches, La., south of Shreveport, is well-acclaimed and expenses for the band, along with additional support, will be provided by Arizona.
"We are glad to have this opportunity to both showcase our band and help give the University of Arizona football program and its fans the best possible bowl experience, said Northwestern State Director of Bands Dr. Jeffrey C. Mathews. "Our band is excited about doing this. And we'll be dressed in cardinal red and navy blue on Dec. 31. We have been working with the staff at the University of Arizona to learn about their game day performances and what they do to support the Wildcats."
Kickoff is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, Dec. 31.

The Conch Bearer (Paperback)
In a dingy shack in the less-than-desirable Indian neighborhood he calls home, twelve-year-old Anand is entrusted with a conch shell that possesses mystical powers. His task is to return the shell to its rightful home many hundreds of miles away. Accompanying him are Nisha, a headstrong but resourceful child of the streets, and a mysterious man of indeterminate age and surprising resources named Abadhyatta. His quest will take him farther from home than he's ever been and will teach him more than he ever imagined -- and it will force him to make a poignant decision that will change him forever.

"Walk the Plank X" 2016 Tournament Update:
10th Anniversary! 8u - 14u
Friday (5/27) - Monday (5/30)
5-Tool Baseball and Olney Travel Baseball are very pleased to once again host the 10th Annual "Walk the Plank" Memorial Day Baseball Classic tournament in 2016 (May 27 - May 30). We had 226 teams participate in this event in 2015 and the participant feedback was extremely positive. With the exception of the 8u age division that is open to all levels of teams due to their age, this unique tournament (unlike the "Mutiny at the Park" which is a wide open tournament offering both Elite divisions and Open divisions) is specifically geared to second tier travel baseball teams (i.e. excluding high level A travel baseball teams).
With the recent proliferation of travel baseball teams throughout the region over the past several years, it has become apparent that many teams rarely have a legitimate opportunity to successfully compete in tournaments against the high powered travel teams; often times getting mercied after three or four innings of play. Accordingly, the Walk the Plank tournament is more suitable for the following types of teams: (1) full-time travel teams that perform at about a .500 level or below in their own league play, (2) organization B teams, (3) recreational or house league all-star teams (4) Sunday only travel teams or (5) travel teams that have never come close to winning a highly competitive tournament. Our hope is that all of the participating players will truly enjoy a very positive and competitively balanced baseball tournament experience.
Teams compete in one of the following age divisions (basepaths/pitching distance). With the exception of the 8u division - teams may opt to play in either a Gold or Silver Division. We would expect that teams that have competed last year and placed first or second in the Silver Division would move up to the Gold Division in their age group. The Tournament Director reserves the right to move teams up or down if considered appropriate.
8u Kid Pitch (60/40)
9u (60/46)
10u (65/46)
11u and 12u (70/50)
13u and 14u (90/60)
The age cutoff date is April 30. However, please note the following exception for this one tournament only. So as not to exclude certain Sunday only teams we are allowing every 9u, 11u and 13u team to roster up to a maximum of 3 players that are one year older (i.e 10u, 12u or 14u) if they so desire. The intent of the exception is not to afford teams an opportunity to add ringers, but rather to ensure that older players that are currently playing on teams with a majority of younger players are not left behind.
Tournament registration fees are all inclusive...baseballs are provided and there are no gate fees, no parking fees, no cooler restrictions, etc.
Keep checking back to this website for updates leading up to and throughout the tournament!
14th Annual "Mutiny at the Park" 2016 Tournament Update:

About this Business
From Our Editors
Bloomington ChopHouse specializes in three things: steaks, seafood, and style. The simple elegance of that mission statement embodies the bistro's culinary philosophy. Many of the dishes incorporate no more than three or four ingredients to create delicate but striking harmonies, much like police officers in a Sondheim play. House cured pork belly crackles with a maple glaze, sweet balsamic onions, and a hint of smoked beer, and even the classic clam chowder gives palates something to think about with its blend of surf clams and fresh cream.
The steaks push the simplicity even farther, relying only on the acumen of the butcher and chef. Each cut is sourced from Linz Heritage Angus Ranch—a midwest outfit that raises purebred black angus cattle. Of course, folks can gussy up their ribeye or filet with a slew of sauces, including brandy peppercorn or house-made steak sauce. They can even upgrade their entrees with everything from truffle butter to a side of scallops or lobster tail.
While it's a favorite dinner spot for romantics, the ChopHouse also hosts lunches and breakfasts, with contemporarily upscale American cuisine anchoring the menu.

A problem for the alternative difference measure of confirmation

Among Bayesian confirmation theorists, several quantitative measures of the degree to which an evidential proposition E confirms a hypothesis H have been proposed. According to one popular recent measure, s, the degree to which E confirms H is a function of the equation P(H|E) − P(H|~E). A consequence of s is that when we have two evidential propositions, E1 and E2, such that P(H|E1) = P(H|E2), and P(H|~E1) ≠ P(H|~E2), the confirmation afforded to H by E1 does not equal the confirmation afforded to H by E2. I present several examples that demonstrate the unacceptability of this result, and conclude that we should reject s (and other measures that share this feature) as a measure of confirmation.

Hizam Haron manages the brand integrity for a Fortune 15 healthcare company, creating and tending to the visual language.
Managing good client-designer relationships is a lot like dating. But being a good date—or turning a potentially bad relationship into a decent one—depends
on more than just chemistry. Since I went in-house, most of my clients are internal, too, and they interact with me daily. This means I go on a lot more
dates now and, given our proximity, I need them all to end well. I have to manage client expectations and stay true to my creative side.
Before I went in-house I had my own studio. For one job we were asked to propose on signage for XYZ Convention Center, but XYZ didn't have a clear scope or
budget in mind. We saw a large opportunity, so we set out to create a proposal that would help them choose among options and prices. We included artist
sketches, designed the presentation format and spent a few thousand dollars printing the proposal. When we presented it to the client, he flipped right to
the prices and said, "That's too many zeros." Since we had actually bid low, we didn't get the job.
This was a bad date. There wasn't enough conversation first or an agreement about where we were going, who would pay, what it would take to make the date
better, and so on.
A good date means understanding the client's world. I used to ask clients to brief me in full before I got to work. Replacing a common process with a brief
sets us up for failure because it misses what your client (and, by extension, you) are up against. Picture designer and client dating in a high school
cafeteria. You may agree to get ice cream after school, but who else is watching? What are your friends thinking? Who else has ideas? Who might see
advantages to sabotaging your relationship? In other words, while your client contact may try their very best to develop a full brief, there are politics
to consider. Creating a written, shared process reminds us that the effort is a relationship, not a mandate. You will be much more successful if you
listen, educate and convince as you go, rather than just designing.
A good date occurs in the context of of a relationship that not only makes the creative process comprehensible, it also defines when and where there will
be feedback, conversations, or opportunities to educate, listen and sign off. Working in-house, I create brand review process workflows. Borrowing the
visual cue from the engineering world, each workflow clearly shows what will happen, who submits to whom and when, possible outcomes, loop-backs and pauses
as well as forward movements. But more importantly, workflows allow me to own a process that leads to good design.
Being empathetic is always part of a good date. The notion that "the client has no idea what good design is" isn't helpful. Sometimes it isn't true: the
client simply has other priorities. Other times the client doesn't know design, but the client knows other things that will get a successful design in
front of its intended audience. I try to ask the right questions to understand where clients are coming from as well as the challenges they face, because
if they're successful, I'll be successful. These are questions like "Why now, and not six months ago?" or "Who isn't in agreement?" or "How will success be
measured?" or "Have other design initiatives failed, and if so, why?"
Another good date practice is to explain things in ways that the client can relate to and repeat to their colleagues. I like to explain what a brand is in
metaphor: female or male, young or old, energetic or smart, how they're dressed, who their friends are, and so on. I've also explained brand visuals as a
wardrobe: there are your formal clothes, your casual wear, your accessories, outfits for special occasions and so on. A relatable metaphor goes a long way.
Finally, don't give up. Not every bad date wrecks the relationship. A year after my studio's failed XYZ proposal, the company's corporate group critiqued
their signage system. The director pulled our proposal off the shelf (probably in desperation) and we were immediately hired for a branding project that
was twice as lucrative as our original proposal. The second time around, we started by putting together a common process and spoke the same language—and we

Germany legends team led by Michael Ballack thrashed England legends
A Germany legends team that was led by Michael Ballack managed to beat an England Legends team 7-2.
The match was in honor of the 50th anniversary of England winning the World Cup and was held at Upton Park. Unfortunately, England could not manage to win the game in front of a crowd that was well above 15000.
The match was also in honor of the West Ham stadium that they will be leaving as from this season. The teams were made up not only of football players but also of other big names from outside the football world.
The first chance of the game came to England legends, but Darren Anderton could not find a way through Jens Lehman. It will be Germany who would take control of play thanks to goals from Hanna Balitsch and Mark Rehmer. The match will reach half-time with Germany legends firmly in control of the match.
The game will not change much after the break with Michael Ballack's teammates keeping control of the match. David Odonkor, Oliver Neuville, and Marco Reich will add more goals to make it 6-0 for the Germany legends. The England team which was captained on that day by Rio Ferdinand could not do anything to stop wave after waves of attack from the German side. Read more »

After reading all the dodgy reviews, I was kind of worried about coming here. However, as soon as I arrived at the Hemp I literally had no idea what anyone was talking about who had said how bad this place was, I fell in love with it!! I'm a bit of a clean freak so I was freaking out that this place would be dirty, and yeah the rooms aren't immaculate by any stretch, but apart from a bit of dust and some scuffs on the walls there was literally nothing to complain about. The bed, sink and carpet were clean and that's all that matters really. We stayed in the Indian room which is on the first floor, and I honestly fell in love with this room. The decor is beautiful - hand painted murals on the walls, lovely vibrant furnishings and ornaments, it was right to my taste and it was such a lovely environment to be in. It was really nice to get a break from your average bleak, loveless hotel room and stay in somewhere which oozed sentiment and personality. The staff we met were both lovely and helpful, the breakfast we had was basic but really fresh and tasty. I would recommend anyone who stays here to have a night in the bar, it's such a laugh. We spent a night down there chilling with the regulars and ended up playing a game of scrabble until about 3am, which was quite amusing! They also give very generous measures haha!!
There were a few minor problems we came across during our stay that others have mentioned on here; the stairs are absolutely terrifying at first but you do get used to them, luckily we only had to go up one flight to get to our room as we had big suitcases, but if we had been on the 2nd or 3rd floor I have no idea how we would've managed with our luggage - anyone with mobility problems could not cope here at all. Secondly, the toilet is literally a cubicle, you have to do a very awkward 360 degree spin even to flush the toilet, you can barely get out the door without being crushed. You also have to pull the door really hard for it to lock so the banging could be an issue in the night for people either side of the toilet. It is also kind of annoying have to go up the horrible stairs to use the toilet if you are staying in the Indian room. But its bearable. Also the noise at night was kind of annoying, although it only occurred on our first night here when I think the room above us had a party, the ceiling was so creaky and the heavy metal music they were playing was soo loud even from the floor above. Also when anyone walks up or down the stairs it bangs on the ceiling. As i said these issues are minor and didn't ruin our stay in the slightest, I definitely will be back at this hotel and anyone looking for a unique, authentic place to stay, come here, this place really does capture the spirit of the Dam!
