Reducing class size and shaking up grading systems could help close the gender gap in professional schools, suggests new research in the Journal of Legal Studies. Authors Daniel Ho and Mark Kelman, both professors of law at Stanford University, say that common professional school pedagogies, such as the Socratic and adversarial methods, may put women at a disadvantage when class sizes are big. In their study, Ho and Kelman analyzed 15,689 grades assigned by 91 instructors to 1,897 students from 2001-12.
During the first part of that time period, from 2001-08, women earned grades that were 0.05 grade-point-average points lower than those for men. But in the data from 2008-12, when Stanford adopted a lower-pressure "honors and pass" grading system, the gender gap disappeared across all classes. That change didn't just reflect "masked" grade differences under the new system, the authors determined through a kind of "shadow" grade analysis of pre-2008 data -- women were really doing better. And in a mandatory class whose size was shrunk and instruction was made more "simulation-intensive," involving more student interaction and participation, the gender gap was reversed.
Although the original gender gap was relatively small, the authors say, it's statistically significant when students hit the law job market. For example, they say, a GPA increase from 3.6 to 3.65 is associated with a 7 percent higher chance of landing a federal appellate clerkship. Kelman said that the study refutes a common assumption that performance is predetermined by "fixed" student traits. "To me, the most important finding is the most general one: gender inequality is sensitive to pedagogy," he said via email. "I think this fact is more significant than the particular pedagogical mechanisms that were in play here at Stanford."
Faculty members are generally satisfied with quality of open educational resources, according to a new report, even though most instructors still aren't aware of OER.
The University of Texas System on Monday announced a plan to create a broad, competency-based education program in the medical sciences. The system-wide curriculum will be aimed at learners from high school through post-graduate studies, according to a news release. The forthcoming competency-based credentials will be personalized, adaptive and industry-aligned, the system said. The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, which opens next year, will offer the curriculum's undergraduate degree.
"Success" means many different things. There are as many definitions as there are people (or students in this case).
"Student success" is the big push at colleges and universities across the nation, and this push is largely being forced upon colleges by state legislatures and federal bodies overseeing education. This well-intended goal has many definitions but generally includes a focus on having higher enrollments, more full-time students, students passing their classes (with high grades), and more graduates.
One aspect of this approach is that it tends to, at least sometimes, imply that students who do not graduate or who are not full-time are not successful. Not everyone needs a degree to do what they want in life. Not everyone ultimately decides they want a degree. Additionally, some students only want to take a few courses.
To me at least, "student success" in its ideal and highest achievement has been the hope or goal of students earning higher and higher grades. I always tell my classes I hope everyone earns an "A." Any of my students can tell you that you have to really work for an "A" in my class. If 50 percent earn an "A", it's not because of grade inflation; it's because they worked really hard for it.
Last night my dad (who is also a professor – I loved teaching and school so much, he decided to follow my steps) and I were discussing different situations we had with students. The conversation evolved into a discussion of the emotional costs of student success.
The basic thought is – and it seems very true from personal experience and experience working with approximately 2,830 students since May 2007 – that there are certain negative consequences to earning an "A" in a class, or especially to having a 4.0.
As someone who earned an "A" in every class as an undergraduate, I can testify to the fact that being an "A" student is lonely.
The "A" student can experience this loneliness because they are spending most of their time studying. Studying instead of partying, hanging out, etc. Additionally, there is a certain negative stigma attached to doing extremely well. The "A" students are labeled as nerds or geeks. People who have no life. People who are different.
Consider the following two conversations (at non-elite institutions, like those most students attend):
"Hey, Sam, What grades did you get this semester?"
"Did well. No big deal but got a 4.0. What about you?"
"Wow. Not that well."
"Hey, Sam, What grades did you get this semester?"
"Got an A, two Bs, and a C. What about you?"
"Sweet. About the same for me."
While these quotes are made up, I have seen conversations like this play out many times.
There are at least two implications for educators:
One, although we want our students to all do well, study hard, ask questions, and be 4.0 students, this is an unrealistic goal in a large part because of the negative consequences of making good grades. It is sometimes alienating, and it sets a precedent to continue studying really hard.
Two, for student success to be truly effective – carried to its logical and ideal ends – we need a culture that truly celebrates and embraces thinkers, studiers, questioners. Of course, all students are capable of learning the skills necessary to be the "A" student, but this is not what society or peer pressure really wants or rewards or even allows in some cases. Consider how the Culture of Beer, the Culture of Football, the Culture of Politically-Rewritten-History-Books, for example, and the anti-intellectualism generally therein is vastly different than the Culture of Intellectualism. Consider a world where there are commercials advertising an upcoming talk by a philosopher instead of the newest flavor of beer or the newest gun. The rhetoric of what we advertise speaks volumes to what we truly value.
So as we ask ourselves what we can do to help more students earn higher grades and ask ourselves what we did that caused so-and-so to not reach "their full potential," we must recognize that at least some of the issues are systematic and institutional. The emotional costs of success are high, too much so for some.
Andrew Joseph Pegoda is completing his Ph.D. in history. He teaches at the University of Houston and at Alvin Community College. He blogs here.
Western Governors University has unveiled a new website, dubbed CBEInfo, which seeks to be a discussion space for lessons from the nonprofit university's collaborations with community colleges. Western Governors, which offers competency-based credentials, has worked with 10 community colleges around the country to help them create competency-based associate degree programs. The website includes information about the development of those programs, and seeks input from faculty members and college administrators.
It shouldn't be surprising that the recent conference at St. John's College, in Santa Fe, entitled "What is Liberal Education For?" should have turned into an occasion for blaming a host of difficult challenges currently faced by the humanities and the liberal arts on critical theory and political correctness. I wasn't there, but that seems to be one of the conference's main preoccupations as reported by Inside Higher Ed in an article entitled "Doing Themselves In?" After all, St. John's, with its great books curriculum, is known for proudly embracing a traditional approach to a liberal arts education. And that's great. The country needs institutions of higher learning that take diverse approaches to humanistic education.
However, it's depressing to see such a thoroughly discredited argument being made in late 2014. The idea put forward by one the conference's major speakers, John Agresto, that the liberal arts are "dying" because of critical theory and the politicization of faculty, is not only overblown. It recycles an old and faulty argument that should have been set aside years ago
What is the evidence for Agresto's claim? According to the Inside Higher Ed article, he cites "worrisome statistics," including that "English, long a go-to concentration, now accounts for just 3 percent of majors nationwide." Like similar claims, Agresto's are misleading. For one thing, English has never been a "go-to concentration." English majors since 1975 have never counted for more than 4.4 percent of all majors. This hardly makes English a "go-to concentration."
And while his claim suggests there has been some kind of steep fall-off in English majors over the last four decades, that just isn't so. In 1975, as I just noted, English majors constituted 4.4 percent of all majors. In 1980-81, years in which the U.S. experienced an economic recession, that number understandably fell a bit to 3.4 percent. However, by 1995-96, as the economy recovered, it was back up to 4.2 percent, and by 2002-03 it was holding pretty steady at 4.0 percent. There was another small dip in 2007-08 (3.5 percent) and by 2010-11, even with the great recession, it was hanging on at 3.1 percent. If these statistics are any indication, with the economy improving they will go back up a bit.
As an English professor I wish more students were majoring in English, but the fluctuations in the index Agresto cites are hardly all that dramatic. More importantly, the downturns correlate much more strongly with economic recessions in the early 1970s, the early 1990s, and between 2008 and 2010 than they do with the rise of critical theory or an interest in humanities scholars and their students in the relationship between history, philosophy, literature, religion, the arts, and political and social justice issues. It's a simple fact that the evidence for claims like Agresto's that critical theory and political correctness have ruined the liberal arts and humanities just don't hold water. They substitute weak statistical evidence for what are really ideological polemics.
As many researchers I cite in my recent book on the humanities crisis have pointed out, critics of the contemporary humanities like Agresto use 1970 – the historical high point of humanities majors – as the point from which they chart a decline. But enrollments in the humanities have held steady between 1984 and 2010 at about 6.5 percent, with a few upticks between 1988 and 1996. As Ben Schmidt rightly observes "the overall pattern gives the lie to arguments that claim the humanities are being eroded by things like ethnic studies or a departure from the classics. Students aren't any less interested in majoring in history or English now than they were at the moment deconstructionism hit American shores."
And while the number of English majors has fallen at some Ivy League institutions, according to Scott Saul ("The Humanities in Crisis? Not at Most Schools") nationwide humanities majors in English, foreign languages and literatures and the arts have held steady at between 9.8 and 10.6 percent over the last two decades. He notes that according to Humanities Indicators, a project of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences, the share of bachelor's degrees earned in the humanities has stayed remarkably steady between 1987 and 2010 (10 percent in 1987, and about 11 percent in 2010, with some brief fluctuations up during the overall period). Saul echoes Schmidt in pointing out that these statistics suggest that "we must straighten out one of the great misconceptions that has circulated around humanities professors: that we are a trendy lot, 'tenured radicals' wrenching the curriculum into irrelevance as we impose the latest theoretical paradigm upon it."
If the liberal arts and humanities are in trouble, and in many ways they are, these troubles have little to do with the development of new theories, methodologies, and subject matters. Indeed, such developments ought to be welcome in higher education. Those of us who teach literature, history, religious studies, and the arts are professors, after all, professionals whose work is expected by our colleagues in the natural and social sciences to be theoretically and methodologically rigorous. It's a myth that the sciences have theories and methods and the humanities don't, and it's a mistake to scapegoat theory and professionalization for the current plight of the humanities and liberal arts.
Inside Higher Ed reported that, according to Agresto, in order to "save the humanities" from the pernicious effects of critical theory we must instill "critical thinking skills." However, it makes no sense to claim the liberal arts are about critical thinking, and then to trash critical theory, which teaches critical thinking. Humanism was about nothing if it wasn't about critiquing the status quo. And how can the liberal arts be blamed for causing their own ruin by connecting questions about the human to the world of politics and social justice when humanism has always been all about raising questions about political and social agency? Traditionalists like Agresto and Andrew Delbanco, a professor of English at Columbia University who has frequently advocated for a traditional approach to the humanities that eschews critique, too often seem to want to seal the liberal arts off from such issues (and worse still, to protect them from constructive criticism). In doing so they're actually undermining the very tradition they claim to defend.
The big problem here is that critics like Agresto and Delbanco don't spend enough time analyzing the real plight of the liberal arts and humanities. That plight has a lot more to do with a set of economic and institutional problems that threaten colleges and universities everywhere. It's just that the fallout from these problems has hit the humanities disproportionately hard because we're in a weaker position than the natural and social sciences to stake a claim for the centrality of the subjects we research and teach at a time when the traditional liberal arts model for measuring the value of a higher education has begun to shift to a corporate one.
The corporatization of higher education represents a dramatic shift toward seeing higher education as vocational training, an educational experience geared to credentialing, in which the value of courses and programs are defined narrowly in terms of their practical vocational utility. It's not surprising that these developments have hit the humanities particularly hard, that our disciplines are so vulnerable in an age that increasingly puts the educational emphasis on computational, technological, and mechanical skills at the expense of a broad-based education in history, philosophy, and the arts. If the value of education is increasingly being measured by trustees and legislators too ready to replace a liberal arts model of higher education with a vocational training model of higher education, then it's no wonder the humanities seem to be in crisis.
This means that defending the integrity of the humanities today ought to have little if anything to do with bashing theory or calling for a return to "tradition" (on the drawbacks of arguments based on tradition, see Judge Richard Posner's brilliant analysis in his recent decision on gay marriage in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit.). That's simply indulging in ideological battles that distract us from our real problems. Engaging those problems means defending the integrity of higher education. It means resisting the marginalizing of faculty voices in academic and curricular matters, resisting the institution of managerial structures at colleges and universities that lead to bloated bureaucracies and an over investment in non-curricular matters broadly related to "student life" at the expense of investing in more tenure-track faculty, more classrooms, and more support for a broad liberal arts education. But at the same time it means finding a way to articulate the value of a humanities education that stresses both our traditional commitment to the intangible -- rewards that Agresto and Delbanco rightly point out come from studying philosophy, history, literature and the arts -- while also stressing what is new and innovative about the humanities in the 21st century, and the transferable skills they impart to students.
I don't think it will do to simply fall back on well-worn, boilerplate defenses of the humanities that characterize their value narrowly in terms of the inner journey they promote and the big questions they pose, as a place where we can help our students to discover the meaning of life and to find themselves. Such defenses are too often elegiac -- laments for the passing of what often looks like an overly narrow, idealized, or even sentimental vision of what the humanities were, one that simply feeds the idea they're a little quaint and outdated. Don't get me wrong. I embrace the idea that studying the humanities has a value for its own sake, and I'm deeply committed to the idea that the liberal arts ought to be a place where our preoccupation with the practical and the utilitarian can be submitted to constructive critical scrutiny.
But I believe that in the 21st century we need to present a broader, more nuanced, innovative and forward-looking vision of the humanities, and that such a vision need not be seen as a betrayal of what we have always been doing. We need to characterize the value of the humanities in a way that stresses not just the inner nourishment they can bring, but the reading, analytical, research, writing, and critical thinking skills humanities courses teach our students as well, skills that are manifestly transferable to a range of employment opportunities (for more on this argument see the article I co-authored with Gerald Graff, "Fear of Being Useful").
And crucially, it also means stressing the innovative, even transformative work that has unfolded in the humanities over the last 30 or 40 years, work that has served to reshape our understanding of the human and to challenge our ideas about liberty, agency, responsibility, social justice, and the relationship between humans, technology, and the biosphere in which we all live. We do a disservice to ourselves when, in explaining what we do in the humanities, or in defending their value, we play down or disparage the innovative role that theory has had in deepening, enriching, and challenging our understanding of the human, especially in the attention it has insisted we pay to the complex ways in which social and political power flows through cultural forms and shapes human subjectivity. Our challenge is not simply to defend the humanities, but to defend a new humanities, one in part defined by a critique of the very humanism that historically defined the humanities in the first place. It simply won't do to pretend that the last 30 or 40 years never happened, or worse still, to blame productive innovation during those years for challenges that are in reality economic and institutional.

Here's the latest attempt to encourage students to enroll in full schedules each semester so that they can graduate on time. It's sketch comedy from the University of Akron.
The Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) and the Presidents' Forum this week released a policy report that explores the potential for an external quality review process for "non-institutional" providers in higher education. This emerging field include companies and nonprofits that offer courses, modules or badges. Most of this sector is online, non-credit and low-cost.
The two groups last year formed a commission to look at options for quality assurance in the space. The commission's report describes three possibilities: a voluntary, cooperative effort by providers; a voluntary service offered by an existing third-party association; or a new external group created for this purpose.
"The commission calls upon the postsecondary education community to seize this moment as a critical time to consider development, adoption and extension of new approaches that address the need for institutional and organizational quality review," the report said.

Make your dream rooms come true
I must admit I'm a big fan of IKEA furniture, so as soon as I saw this IKEA software I knew I would love it.
With IKEA Home Planner you can plan furniture distribution on your new home before actually moving into it, or redecorate any room in your house with your favorite pieces of IKEA furniture. The program doesn't include the complete IKEA catalog, but it helps you get an idea of how the new decoration will look like – without having to move heavy tables and shelves around.
IKEA Home Planner is very easy to use. You can switch between top perspective or a 3D render view, and also build the room itself (walls, doors, windows, etc.) before starting to add furniture. Plus, the program shows highly-detailed information about each item you add, including measurements, and all available colors. One big drawback, however, is the fact that the program doesn't include furniture for the living room.
Once you're done with the decoration, IKEA Home Planner also lets you calculate the final price so that you can manage your budget more effectively.
With IKEA Home Planner you can easily decorate a new home or rearrange your new IKEA furniture in any room.
- View the floor plan in 2D or 3D

- Lets you calculate final price
- Doesn't include living-room furniture
- Only for IKEA lovers
"great product for no price"
We really like the IKEA home planner @ John Webb Construction. We do a lot of IKEA remodels and use the IKEA planner exclusively to present to clients and to show our carpenters the layout / design of the remodel. It can be quirky or slow at points, but overall you can beat the price for the quality.

This paper compares ALOS PALSAR fully polarimetric and dual-polarized data in the application area of land cover mapping. To assure versatile comparison of the data, different classification methods and different features of data are used. Two of the classification methods used are based on supervised classification and two on unsupervised classification. Polarimetric data are used in three ways: (1) as fully polarimetric data; (2) features calculated from fully polarimetric data; and (3) intensity data of selected channels. Combinations of six (water, field, sparse forest, dense forest, peat land, and urban areas), five, four, and three classes were used for classification. Fully polarimetric data gave better results (87.5%-84.7% with three classes; open land areas, forest, and water) than intensity data only (83.6%-78.6%), but the differences in the overall accuracies between the methods were not more than 7.6%. Kappa coefficients of agreement are moderate for all the classifications. Supervised classification can be expected to perform better than unsupervised classification, given that the training areas can be selected accurately. Dual polarization data were found to be an attractive alternative in cases where fully polarimetric data are not available or it is of low resolution. With intensities of selected polarimetric features, it was possible to obtain a high classification accuracy as with fully polarimetric data. This also opens possibilities for nonspecialist users to benefit from polarimetric information in classification.

Before the Game, Bacchanalia XXXVII
Published: January 26, 2003
(Page 2 of 2)
She went on to say that making the rounds at Super Bowl week could have its downside on celebrity, too. ''If you show up at too many things, people start to wonder if you're more about yourself than what charity you're promoting. You could do the organization detriment if you don't pick your spots. Oversaturation is bad. After a while, no one cares about your cause. They want to know who you're sleeping with, how long it took to put on your makeup and what dress you're wearing.''
(For the record, Ms. Dawson wore a black flower-print gown designed by Diane Von Furstenberg. ''She was responsible for the wrap in the 70's,'' she explained, helpfully. ''I just thought it was sexy.'' No word on whom she's sleeping with.)
But it was Trista Rehn who drew the most attention. She is the star of ABC's ''Bachelorette,'' a former Miami Heat cheerleader who was rejected on national television in the last week of the first season of ''The Bachelor.'' As her revenge, Ms. Rehn now has a truckload of men to choose from in her own show. If the Match.com crowd was having a rough go finding mates on the Internet, poor Ms. Rehn has been looking for a husband on television for more than two seasons.
She was congenial enough, chitchatting her way through promotional interviews with local affiliates, careful not to give up any of her suitors. But her handlers were intent on scurrying her away from the crush -- not because Ms. Rehn could at any time be approaching her 16th minute in America's celebrity consciousness. No, it is a much more pressing matter, the public relations man said. ''Trista wants to watch herself tonight. She whittles it down to about five, I think.''
A few blocks from the W, Mark McLemore, the veteran Seattle Mariners ballplayer, drove up Fifth Avenue in a metallic silver Ferrari 360. He parked as admirers scurried around to look at his shimmering vehicle under the street lamps. Mr. McLemore looked like the John Milner character from ''American Graffiti'' -- he and his car, joined in coolness till their pink slips do them part.
''You could say I'm showing off a little,'' Mr. McLemore said, smiling.
He and his passenger were told that Marcus Allen, Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders were at the W.
''They're all has-beens, not like you, still a real player,'' a reporter said.
''That's cold,'' Mr. McLemore said, looking at his passenger. ''Have you met Michael Allen, yet?'' he said. ''He's Marcus's younger brother.''
Mr. McLemore and the Allens are a few of a number of San Diego-born and -bred athletes who made it back for the big party. Another native, Ricky Williams, the Miami running back, gave his own party at the Blue Tattoo on Thursday. Donovan McNabb, the Philadelphia quarterback, was one of the bigger luminaries on Wednesday night, along with the linebackers Bruce Smith and Marcellus Wiley.
Most of the fans find their way to the Gas Lamp Quarter at night. Their revelry begins at a sort of restaurant row at 7 p.m., continues as the streets pulse with people and music around 10 p.m., then falls into disrepair after 1 a.m., when the most serious carousers start to take the streets. Six rickshaw companies work the late shift, pedaling the inebriated home.
Mark Shadinger, a Raider fan called Spike, traipsed out of a bar on Wednesday night, waiting for more of Raider Nation to join him. Someone asked him where the fan widely known as Violator was this evening.
''We don't baby-sit each other,'' Mr. Shadinger grunted, unsmiling. Mr. Shadinger is a scruffy, hairy man, with actual spikes protruding from his shoulders, across from the skull with the eye patch. He looks more rugged than a Hell's Angel, but the effect wears off after he reaches into his wallet and presents you with a business card and his very own Spike trading card.
''Here, want one of these?'' he said, sheepishly.
Jennifer Martin was not sure what to make of it all. She is a second-grade teacher from San Diego, taking in the madness with her two friends.
''There is more of an L.A. scene than a San Diego scene here this week,'' Ms. Martin said. ''You come back next week and it'll be a lot more laid back. You got too much of this L.A. vibe right now, people in black and worried about what they're wearing. By next week, the town will be back to flip-flops and jeans.''
Brook and Paula, Ms. Martin's friends, were chatted up at the W by Mr. Sanders and Mr. Irvin, who referred to each other as their personal assistants.
''They've been hitting on my friend Paula for a while,'' Ms. Martin said. ''I've decided if nobody's there, Deion will hit on himself.''
Mr. Sanders, now a television com mentator, was almost incredulous when the three San Diego women did not know who he was. It was not clear whether Mr. Sanders, the two-sport athlete once simply known as Primetime, was actually upset or putting everyone on.
But it did not help when, after the commotion subsided, Ms. Martin wondered aloud, ''So which one is Deion?''
He is the guy who said it was past his curfew several hours ago, the former player -- nursing a drink by a faux cabana in the imported sand, trying to stay incandescent for as long as old Super Bowl legends can.
''Oh, you got me,'' he said, closing in on 1 a.m. at the Magnet. ''I guess it's not time to go to sleep.''
The week of the big game, Bedtime for Primetime always comes late.

Massive Historic Blizzard!!! 967 mb Major Nor'easter!!! Snow already making its way into Upstate NY...
Poster Handle
Floobarb the Argnorf
Post Content
I hope that means it will bring some seasonal snow!
Really missing a nice snow storm, Luis.
Geeezzzzzzzzzz freaky tastes!
Luis, I'm from Boston. We are used to snow! The only time I actually feared the snow was during the blizzard of '78 when we got about 3 feet. It wasn't the accumulation that was problem, it was the intensity whereby the highway crews just couldn't keep up with the rate of snow falling. As long as you are off the roads and out of harms way, you're good.
I remember shoveling my car out of a parking space and went to get in it to drive home and was alarmed by the fact that the snow and drifting snow had completely filled back in whatever I had shoveled... I was scary. I knew I had to take side roads home, so I could get into a shop if the roads became impossible. I knew then the highways were not the choice to make.
Back in that '78 blizzard people didn't believe the forecasts and were complacent because they are used to snow, plus the system stalled off the coast which really complicated things. You must give yourself time to get to a safe place. It was sad to see people tried to commute on the highways when they were being told not too on every radio station. People died because of that. It's common sense. When they're telling you they can't keep up with the storm and to get off the highways, just do it. They mean it. Really.
I'm a native Masshole myself. But moved to Arizona about five years ago and man... is my back killing me from shoveling all this damned sunshine! ;)

Discovering semantic biomedical relations utilizing the Web
World Wide Web
The World Wide Web (abbreviated as WWW or W3, commonly known as the Web, or the "Information Superhighway"), is a system of interlinked hypertext documents accessed via the Internet. With a web browser, one can view web pages that may contain text, images, videos, and other multimedia, and navigate between them via hyperlinks.
more from Wikipedia
Semantics (from Greek: s¿mantiká, neuter plural of s¿mantikós) is the study of meaning. It focuses on the relation between signifiers, such as words, phrases, signs and symbols, and what they stand for, their denotata. Linguistic semantics is the study of meaning that is used to understand human expression through language. Other forms of semantics include the semantics of programming languages, formal logics, and semiotics.

Semantic Web
The Semantic Web is a collaborative movement led by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) that promotes common formats for data on the World Wide Web. By encouraging the inclusion of semantic content in web pages, the Semantic Web aims at converting the current web of unstructured documents into a "web of data". It builds on the W3C's Resource Description Framework (RDF).

text: In 2015, the total revenue in the state budget of Estonia was 7.98 billion euros, including transferrable tax revenues. This was substantially below the planned budget volume, which was 8.45 billion euros. The planned level was not reached mainly because of a smaller sum of grants received. Excluding the grants, the sum of receipts exceeded the planned amount by 155 million euros. The planned expenditure in 2015 was 8.67 billion euros, out of which 8.33 billion were spent in the budget year.

Nice! I used PC a long time ago, I thought their quality was great but they lacked a lot of customization options at the time and it was pretty expensive for an online MTM, especially since they charged $15 for shipping. I'm thinking about trying them again but I'm still disappointed by the fact they don't have darting options.

If Darfur is to have durable peace, all parties to the country's multiple conflicts need to develop a more holistic means of addressing both local conflicts and nationwide grievances.
"It is time Sudan and its partners abandoned piecemeal approaches in favour of a comprehensive national dialogue and inclusive talks".
EJ Hogendoorn, Crisis Group's Africa Program Deputy Director
In The Limits of Darfur's Peace Process, the third report in its Sudan's Spreading Conflict series on the violence besetting the country's peripheries, the International Crisis Group analyses Darfur and the contradiction between the piecemeal and comprehensive approaches to the decade-old war. The region is increasingly off the international radar, even though a spike in violence displaced nearly half a million additional people in 2013. The 2011 Doha Document for Peace in Darfur (DDPD) has not been implemented, and the main insurgent groups have allied and assert an increasingly national agenda.
The report's major findings and recommendations are:
"Sudanese and international players alike are divided on a crucial choice: keep negotiating on Darfur and other conflicts separately, or adopt a national approach to solve all at once", says Jérôme Tubiana, Senior Sudan Analyst. "In Darfur, the rebel movements' main leaders have always claimed some national agenda and a commitment to national unity. This provides an opportunity to include Sudan's most populous region in a nationwide process".
"Darfur has alternated for a decade between being a headline conflict and a forgotten one. Horrific violence and displacement continue", says EJ Hogendoorn, Africa Program Deputy Director. "It is time Sudan and its partners abandoned piecemeal approaches in favour of a comprehensive national dialogue and inclusive talks. At stake is no less than the end of decades of chronic conflict – and perhaps Sudan's unity".

TRENTON - A state Senate panel advanced a bill Monday that would require some new houses built in New Jersey to be equipped with an automatic sprinkler system.
Supporters of the legislation say sprinklers could save lives at a relatively low price, about 1 percent of the total cost of building the home. The bill requires installation in new single- and two-family homes.
More than half of the 85 civilian casualties due to fires in 2012 occurred in single- and two-family homes, according to data from the state Division of Fire Safety. Eighty percent of the more than 14,000 fires reported in 2012 occurred in residential structures.

The country's sole surviving complete rococo garden
Painswick Rococo Garden was designed in the 1740s as a flamboyant pleasure garden for Benjamin Hyett to entertain his guests. This was a time when gardens were fashionable theatrical sets, providing a stunning backdrop to decadent garden parties. Instead of a flower garden, you will happen across a stunning vegetable garden, beautifully-framed views of the surrounding countryside and fanciful garden buildings. You can lose yourself amongst the lofty trees of our leafy woodland walk and watch friends and family battle to find the centre of our unusual maze. And afterwards, enjoy delicious homemade cakes or a light lunch in our cosy cafe.

Rosemary Oil and Extract
Miyazawa et al. (2003) determined that (-)-verbenone, a constituent of rosemary oil, is metabolized by mammalian tissue to (-)-10-hydroxy-verbenone.
Narayanan (2003) examined the composition of two samples of rosemary oil of South Indian origin. As can be seen from the results presented in T-1, one was found to contain verbenone, while no detectable level was found in the other oil. Furthermore, it was found that the occurrence of verbenone had a perceivable effect on the sensory differentiation between the two oils.

I am an advocate of strong passwords — inconvenient, long, strong passwords. 7-1d7w!Ka was my Yahoo! password until a few hours ago. Can you guess the phrase I based it on? Hint … it's written in LEET and it is a famous phrase from the 1939 movie classic, The Wizard of Oz. Got it?
7-1d7w!Ka is an abbreviation for, "Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore." The letter "T" is represented by a the number "7." The uppercase letter "I" is represented by a "1." The lowercase letter "i" is represented by an "!" and the other letters are just letters.
Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore. Gets shortened to:
T-IdtwiKa, which gets translated to LEET as: 7-1d7w!Ka, which is about as strong of a password as you can create and it's very, very easy to remember.
Here's a simple LEET table. Try to make a few long, strong passwords by picking a favorite phrase or quote from a movie or book and using the first letters of each word to construct your password.
Making very strong, inconvenient passwords and using them is one of the best things you can do to protect yourself against casual hackers.
That said, we all have dozens of websites that we visit and it is really not a brilliant idea to use the same password for all of them. You can do it, but it increases the risk that one good hack will give you a serious headache.
There are two programs I like that solve this problem. One is free, but a little geeky. The other is $50 bucks, but works like a charm. KeePass (Windows) and KeePass X (Mac) are free, open source password managers. And 1Password is a $50 very nicely packaged solution that will let you automatically create and manage a large number of extremely long, strong, cryptic passwords on all of your devices: Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, etc.
The value of this kind of password management software is that, not only can it help you create excellent passwords and autofill them for you, it can help you change your passwords very quickly – and that is the only thing you can do about the Yahoo! Hack.
You must change your Yahoo! password now. There is an online tool from Sucuri Malware Labs that can tell you if your account was one of the ones that were hacked, but you should just change your password anyway.
The more we put our lives in the cloud, the more vulnerable we are to this kind of hack. Getting a handle on password management is a best practices requirement for success in a connected world. So check out some password management software and get a system in place. Sadly, this will not be the last time you need to be vigilant about passwords or cyber-security.

This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

DURHAM, N.C. - Shelden Williams will skip this year's NBA
draft and return for his senior year at Duke.
Williams, the ACC Defensive Player of the Year last season and a
rugged inside presence who earned third-team all-America honors
from The Associated Press, was considered a potential candidate for
the draft.
Williams said in a statement Monday that he has decided to
pursue his goal of earning a degree.
"For that reason along with others, I am going to pass on the
opportunity to enter the NBA draft," Williams said in a statement.
"I am looking forward to finishing off my academic career with a
degree and also returning to the playing court to help Duke compete
for the national championship next season."
Williams averaged 15.5 points, 11.2 rebounds and 3.7 blocked
shots while helping Duke to a 27-6 record and the ACC tournament
championship last season.
The announcement means Duke will return two first-team
all-conference performers in Williams and senior J.J. Redick, and
add a strong recruiting class that includes forward Josh McRoberts
and guard Greg Paulus.
The news also comes just days after rival North Carolina lost
juniors Sean May and Raymond Felton, as well as freshman Marvin
Williams, to the NBA draft.
Another junior, Rashad McCants, has also announced that he would not return to help the Tar Heels defend their NCAA title.
The loss of the quartet alongside seniors Jawad Williams, Jackie
Manuel and Melvin Scott means the Tar Heels will have to replace
their top seven scorers from this year's team.

Pros: This product with the default software allows you to show your smartphones photos, videos, music on HDMI TV.
Cons: This product AFAIK does not Mirror the screen despite the description. (Language barrier?) If there is software for this the MFR does not provide this. Further it has taken me repetitive entries of the password and selection of the WIFI connection to get linked. I did get it working using a Samsung Avanta but it seems something periodically reboots the phone while using.
I was specifically looking for mirroring of the screen even if I was tethered to the device. That was I could see Netflix on a bigger screen.
Other Thoughts: I am welcome to feedback from Shenzhen.. the manufacturer if there are features or software that have been improved.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Acer G6 Series G226HQLBbd (UM.WG6AA.B01) Black 21.5" 5ms Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor 200 cd/m2 ACM 100,000,000:1 (600:1)
Pros: A monitor should just work, otherwise why should I have to teach it. I have used with Macs, PCs, and composite video converter. Got it on sale and if I had to pay a little more probably would. No regrets.
Cons: Position is not adjustable or rotatable. Didn't need it to be though. Simple stand. Probably break if not kept on solid surface
Other Thoughts: I am older and have glasses but I can't find anything wrong. Met my expectations. :)READ FULL REVIEW

Our Industry-Leading Tech Support Just Got Better and Faster
Within the MakerBot offices, you'll find our 3D printers whirring away in just about every department. So we know what it's like to go through all the right steps before a print, only to end up with a long, eerie silence or a discordant beep. For when all doesn't go according to plan, we've revamped our industry-leading support site to keep you printing and making.
Organized into two sections, Troubleshooting and Learning, the support site is designed to help you learn about MakerBot products, quickly solve issues, and minimize downtime. While the Learn section offers a wide range of information on our products, the Troubleshooting section is streamlined to easily guide you to the right solution through a series of simple questions.
"This approach to Troubleshooting offers an improved customer experience that complements our best-in-class customer support team" says Gil Maman, Vice President of Customer Advocacy and Business Development. "All told, the new support site reflects MakerBot's continued commitment to facilitate close relationships with our customers and users by putting their needs first."
