I'm having some resource issues using the 'Search Everything' plugin, it's causing the mysql database to lock and giving me massive slowdown every day. I don't blame the plugin, I blame my shared hosting - BUT, I was wondering if I could avoid using a plugin at all by simply appending the post tags and category names to the_content within the database so that the in-built WordPress search could then be satisfactory and would find these terms.
I have read lots of different codex pages and tutorials and not found exactly what I need, but I'm hoping someone could have a look at the following code and give their thoughts on whether it might work (I do not have a test server available at the moment and am hesitant to run it on a live site!)
function tags_in_content($post_id, $post) {
$content = get_the_content();
$tags = get_tags();
add_action ( 'publish_post', 'tags_in_content' );
It can't be that simple can it?
Many thanks for any help anyone can give me!

Pop duo eric + erica will return Saturday for a concert at The 806, 2812 S.W. Sixth Ave.
The dream-pop duo first performed in Amarillo in December at the coffee shop.
"We enjoyed so many things about our show last time," said Eric Kuhn. "We had some of the most engaging post-show conversations of the whole tour. ... We left Amarillo with our hearts and bellies full."
The band formed in California but recently relocated to Chapel Hill, N.C.
On this tour, the duo will add live drums played simultaneously with foot-pedal synthesizer and "a more dynamic and energetic sound which still remains true to the band's love of lilting ear-catching melodies, soft shimmering tones and carefully crafted minimalist pop songs," the duo said in an email.
The show is free.
For information, call 806-322-1806 or visit www.ericandericamusic.bandcamp.com.

This deadline was originally March 31, but the IRS extended it for this first year of filing only. Future years' filing deadlines will very likely be earlier in the year as the ACA Information Returns process become more standardized.

When companies rely on their senior executives to set strategic direction, galvanise employees and steer them towards success, appointing the right captain becomes mission-critical. This process begins with acquiring an accurate and in-depth understanding of the candidate's background. It is a common misconception that candidates for a senior executive position would not stoop to falsifying or hiding information. In a perfect world, we could perhaps accept everything provided by a candidate at face value. In reality, however, discrepancies do exist.

SHALLOTTE — West Brunswick senior Divina Mercado signed a letter of intent June 8 to attend Chowan University and play lacrosse.
The scene was unimaginable four years ago.
"I honestly thought I would more than likely be going to college to play basketball," Mercado said.
"But, things happened."
SHALLOTTE — When Divina Mercado signed a letter of intent June 8 to attend Chowan University and play lacrosse, she became the fourth West Brunswick girl lacrosse player this year to use the sport to help get a college education.
"This is just the beginning," West coach Kate Gentle said. "By the time my freshmen are seniors, I can only imagine that every single one of them will go to college and play lacrosse."
Gentle is encouraged by information she is receiving from recruiting sites. Colleges have interest in lacrosse players.
SHALLOTTE — If the West Brunswick baseball team had reached the East Regional — and it came within one out of doing so — the Trojans would have been host to two regional games (if the regional lasted three games). Conference rival Topsail would have been the foe.
The games would have attracted the largest baseball crowds of the season at West Brunswick — and most likely would have strained the concession stand and bathroom facilities.
That would have been no surprise to West Brunswick athletics director Jimmy Fletcher.

Eye drops are big business, as Americans annually spend billions of dollars on this seemingly simple lubrication. So when your eyes itch or water, how do you select the right eye drop for your specific needs? When you walk down the aisle of your favorite pharmacy to select a product, how can you possibly know which one is the best solution? Let's begin by diagnosing your eye symptoms.
Over-the-counter eye drops are as numerous as eye symptoms. Are you suffering from allergies? Are you experiencing red-eye for longer than one day? Do you just need eye lubrication? Should you be choosing something on the shelf at your local pharmacy, or should you be calling your eye doctor?
The most common reason people use eye drops is because they are experiencing red or externally-triggered irritation. There are a number of reasons that eyes react to their environment. Many suffer eye strain or dryness from prolonged computer use, allergies, a series of late nights out and other problems. For these situations, choose eye drops that contain antihistamines, as they not only help to soothe itchy or red eyes, but they also protect eyes from pollen.
Some eye drops on the shelf are labeled as artificial tears. These types of eye drops provide relief for dry eyes. While it could be caused by activities like staring for long periods at the computer screen, many health problems also have dryness as a symptom; if the discomfort persists, it is wise to talk to your doctor about the causes.
If you suffer from a dry eye syndrome it is best to avoid decongestant eye drops. Decongestant eye drops are normally marketed as relief for red eyes. While decongestants can make your eyes look less red and tired, they can worsen your eye symptoms. Decongestants have a drying effect on your eyes.
While decongestant eye drops are effective at getting rid of redness, be mindful that they can mask a serious deep-rooted problem. It's always best to first consult with your eye doctor to diagnose the cause of your dry or red eyes. Some dry- eye conditions are long –term. In these long-term instances, it is best to use a gel or ointment. Be aware that sometimes gels for dry eyes can cause temporary blurry vision. Follow the instructions on the eye drop package.
If your eyes are swollen or are creating a morning time discharge, you may have signs of an eye infection. If this is the case, you should consult your eye doctor. You may need an eye-drop prescription, rather than self-medicating your eye problem by yourself. Depending on the eye condition being treated, your doctor will know if you need an eye drop that contains, steroids, antibiotics, antifungal, or topical anesthetics.
There are many eye drops that exist solely for the sake of rewetting the contact lenses that are already being utilized. As an added bonus, they often can flush out any debris that get trapped underneath the lens. There are plenty of contacts that are self-lubricating, manufactured by top brands like Acuvue and Air Optix.
Applying eye drops might be trickier than you expect. There is more to the proper routine of administering eye drops, then just squeezing the eye drop bottle. Knowing and understanding the correct application procedure of eye drops will help insure success in gaining eye relief. Below please find a list of steps to follow to improve your eye drop application routine.
If you have questions about this article, bring it with you to your next doctor visit.
In most cases contact lenses are a medical expense. However, it may be most comforting to know that all contact lenses purchased through replacemycontacts.com are eligible as expenses under a Flex Spending Account (FSA).
If you have been issued a FSA Visa or FSA Mastercard by your workplace, you can use those cards during checkout as you would use a normal Visa or Mastercard. In some cases, the charge may not go through the first time, in which case you will need to call the phone number on the back of the card, and have them add our company to the list of approved vendors. If you have not been issued a FSA card by your provider, you can still use a regular credit card, and then submit the receipt we provide you to your insurance company.
If you need any assistance placing your order, our customer service representatives are here to help you Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm EST.
Here at ReplaceMyContacts, we strive to provide our customers the fastest, easiest, and cheapest contact lens purchase. ReplaceMyContacts performs a price comparison on over 10 separate internet retailers twice a week ensuring we always have the lowest price for our valued customers.
Believe you have found your lens somewhere cheaper?
UPP stands for Unilateral Pricing Policy. The contact lens manufacturers mandate the minimum price that they can be sold for. As a result of these policies, we are unable to offer any rebates or discounts like we have in the past.
UPP means the contact lens manufacturers dictate the cost their lenses are sold at, which unfortunately eliminates marketplace competition and your overall ability to shop for the cheapest price. UPP is the direct causes of such drastic price increases.

Elective services at Dunedin Hospital are planned to resume
next week as the number of new norovirus cases continues to
Otago District Health Board operations manager Megan Boivin
said it was hoped all wards would be reopened today once they
had been cleaned.
The number of patients in isolation has dropped from 30 to
18, with only 15 of those suffering from norovirus.
Six more patients and staff have fallen ill with the highly
contagious virus since yesterday, compared with 11 yesterday,
24 on Wednesday and 16 on Tuesday.
In total 73 patients and almost 100 staff have fallen prey to
the virus.
Visitor restrictions would still be in place during the
weekend and the main entrance would continue to be manned by
security staff, she said. Hand hygiene protocols will be
enforced for those who are allowed access to the hospital.
Next week 2pm to 8pm visiting hours would be strictly
enforced and visitors would not be allowed outside of these
hours, Mrs Boivin said.
The only exemptions to the stricter hours would be the
neonatal intensive care unit, the intensive care unit and the
paediatric ward.
Those attending outpatient clinics next week will be asked to
go straight to their appointment and refrain from spending
more time than they need to in other areas of the
Visiting restrictions were lifted at Waikari Hospital
More than 2,300 procedures, including elective surgery,
outpatient visits and planned admissions, have been
Those patients would not go to the bottom of the waiting list
as the hospital had made a commitment to give them treatment,
Mrs Boivin said.
Chief medical officer Richard Bunton said there would be
increased waiting times for some services as a result of the
norovirus outbreak and hospital lock-down.
Good hand hygiene is the most important way people can
protect themselves from the spread of illness. Hands should
be washed for 20sec with soap and water and then dried
thoroughly for 20sec with clean towels.
Anybody with diarrhoea or vomiting should stay away from work
or school, or not visit hospitals or rest-homes, until they
have been free of all symptoms for 48 hours.

Sinaia is a mountain resort town in Romania's Carpathian Mountains, roughly 120 km (75 miles) northwest of the capital city, Bucharest. In the winter, you can ski in Sinaia, and there are also year-round attractions including mountain scenery, castles and a local casino. Accommodation in Sinaia is mostly in the form of hotels rather than motels, although area "villas" or guesthouses typically offer accommodations for motorists.
Cazare Pensiuni Sinaia
Cazare Pensiuni Sinaia is a guesthouse located less than a mile to the west of central Sinaia. On-site parking is available, and there are a total of eight guest rooms at Cazare Pensiuni Sinaia, two of which are twins ("duble" in Romanian). The remaining six rooms have double beds, known as "matrimoniale." The guesthouse sits in a forested area by the Costila River and offers cable TV and wireless Internet as well as a self-catering kitchen for guest use.
Motel Ivorul Rece
Motel Ivorul Rece is located approximately three miles south of Sinaia and 63 miles from the Henry Coanda International Airport. The motel offers twin, triple and double rooms; camping facilities; and a two-room apartment. Sporting facilities at Ivorul Rece include an indoor tennis court for guest use.
Villa Marald
Within a 10-minute walk of Sinaia's center, Villa Marald sits at the base of the Bucegi Mountains. All rooms are en-suite, offering hairdryers, minibars and cable TV. Many rooms have balcony views over the adjacent mountains and Prahova Valley. Wireless Internet is provided without charge throughout the guesthouse. Villa Marald is classified as a motel by Booking.com, and guest parking is provided. With a total of 12 rooms, the guesthouse also offers transfers for guests arriving in Bucharest without a vehicle.
Driving in Romania
As of February 2011, the general standard of roads in Romania is lower than those in the United States and many other European countries. According to the World Economic Forum, Romania's road quality is ranked 126th out of 134 states. The European Union Road Federation reports that Romania's per-vehicle rate of traffic fatalities is the highest in the European Union. Defensive driving is essential in Romania, and you should take extra care on mountain roads in snowy conditions. A U.S. driver's license is valid for up to 90 days in Romania. The Romanian drunk-driving limit is zero, and traffic laws are strictly enforced. Romanian law requires the wearing of seat belts, and children under the age of 12 may not travel in the front seat. Speed limits are typically 80 mph on highways, 30 mph in towns, 60 mph on European and "express" roads, and 55mph on all other roads.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- A couple of thousand fans decked out in garnet and black lined the Bluff Road practice field across from Williams-Brice Stadium on a hot, muggy Wednesday night to watch
South Carolina open preseason camp for the 2011 football season
with a spirited two-hour workout.
The Gamecocks have high expectations after winning the SEC East
and reaching the conference title game a year ago for the first
time. They were the pick among the media and coaches to repeat as SEC East champions, a favorite spot they are not accustomed to having with Florida, Georgia and Tennessee in the same division.
"It was a pretty nice practice," said South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier, who is entering his seventh year with the Gamecocks. "All of the coaches were really noticing the difference in our team speed. It was noticeable that our guys are faster than they've been before."
South Carolina went 9-5 last year and lost its final two games, a humbling 56-17 setback to eventual national champion Auburn in
the SEC title game and a 26-17 loss to Florida State in the Chick-fil-A Bowl.
But the Gamecocks have nearly all of their starters back on both sides of the ball, plus the nation's top recruit in defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. Quarterback Stephen Garcia was recently reinstated to the team after his fifth suspension and has started 28 straight games.
Spurrier said the fifth-year senior has done everything the university and coaches asked of him and has had a complete lifestyle change. Spurrier has insisted since the end of last year the competition between Garcia and sophomore Connor Shaw is open, but most expect Garcia to be under center in the season-opener against East Carolina in Charlotte on September 3.
The Gamecocks also have the 1-2 punch of sophomore running back
Marcus Lattimore and junior receiver Alshon Jeffery. Lattimore rushed for 1,197 yards and accounted for 19 touchdowns as a freshman while missing nearly 2 1/2 games to injury.
Jeffery set school records with 88 catches for 1,517 yards and nine touchdowns. Jeffery missed the opening practice after being involved in a car accident on Tuesday.
Spurrier said he is expected back in a couple of days. Defensively, cornerback Stephon Gilmore, defensive end Devin Taylor, and defensive tackle Travian Robertson received All-SEC preseason recognition, but the biggest attraction was the debut of Clowney.
"He plays too fast out here," Spurrier said. "We have to teach him practice speed. We try and let the quarterbacks throw the ball in these drills with no pads on but can't slow Jadeveon down. We have to take him out of the game to slow him down."

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Immunomedics and UCB have amended their development, collaboration, and license agreement for the exclusive, worldwide rights to develop, market, and sell epratuzumab for all autoimmune disease indications. The restructuring allows UCB to select a partner to sublicense its rights for certain territories.
Under the terms of the amended agreement, in return for the right to sublicense, UCB returned its buy-in right for the cancer indication to Immunomedics. Immunomedics will receive $30 million upon execution of the amendment. In the event UCB exercises its right to sublicense, Immunomedics will be entitled to receive an additional cash payment of $30 million and additional payments upon achievement of regulatory and sales milestones pursuant to the amended agreement. In addition, Immunomedics will issue to UCB a five-year warrant to purchase one million shares of Immunomedics' common stock at an exercise price equal to $8.00 per share.
Epratuzumab is currently being evaluated in two Phase III randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trials (EMBODY1 and EMBODY2) for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe lupus. The drug is also in a Phase II program as a treatment for lymphoma. The compound has fast-track status for the lupus indication.
"We are pleased with the amendment we have reached with Immunomedics," said Iris Loew-Friedrich, evp and chief medical officer of UCB. "It allows UCB an opportunity to explore collaborations with third parties to take full advantage of the opportunities presented by epratuzumab."
UCB has one other lupus candidate in its pipeline. CDP7657 is in a Phase I trial. The rest of UCB's development efforts are focused on CNS diseases and immunology. Most advanced is its epilepsy program, composed of Vimpat in various stages of development as a monotherapy as well as adjunctive treatment, brivaracetam in Phase III as an adjunctive therapy, and UCB0941 in Phase I.
On the immunology side, it is developing Cimzia for RA, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Olokizumab is another compound being developed for RA, while CDP7851 is being tested in fracture healing and post-menopausal osteoporosis.

The participation of the U. S. Public Health Service in the evaluation of various treatment methods for early syphilis may be grouped in three broad phases. The first was the evaluation with the Cooperative Clinical Group of the results of standard therapy of weekly injections of arsphenamine and heavy metal. This study was conducted in the period 1930-1935. The second was the field study evaluation of massive arsenotherapy conducted with the New York and Midwestern groups of cooperating clinics that took place during the ten year period 1933-1943.
The present communication is a progress report on an evaluation study of the results in early syphilis of various intensive treatment schedules utilizing penicillin alone or with adjunctive therapy and of certain methods and schedules of intensive arsenotherapy. The records on which the study is based are from sixteen rapid treatment centers. These centers are members of a group of some fifty

"The place where I was born...." Bucharest by monica71
Bucharest Travel Guide: 1,680 reviews and 4,379 photos
Bucharest is the town I was born in and where I lived for almost 24 years. It is a place close to my soul and no matter where I am, the name of the city will always bring a smile on my face.
Bucharest is a city full of wonders and I hope that you will discover them once you start reading my Things To Do and also other people's pages about Bucharest. I hope to be able to finish this page soon. Bucharest is a big city with lots of things to do and it will take a while to build the pages :)
A lot of people I meet ask me if a trip to Bucharest is worth the time and the money. All I can say is "read on" and if you like what you find out about this colorful city, then "yes", go there. You will be pleasantly surprised to discover even more wonders than written on these pages!
The legend says that Bucharest was named after a young shepherd, Bucur.
Bucur was visiting the eastern bank of the Dambovita River, he fell in love with the beauty of the area and he decided to build a church here. People started to come to this church. They settled down in this area and decided to name the small village Bucuresti (Bucharest). The remains of the church are long gone, but the legend is still there.
Regardless if the legend is true or not, the fact remains that Bucharest entered its swinging heyday after it was crowned the nation's capital in 1862. Due to the elegant architecture that was present all over the town, Bucharest was given the nickname of "Little Paris".
The first official document discovered in which the name of the city is mentioned for the first time, is dated Sept 20th, 1495 and it is signed by Vlad Tepes (known as Dracula). Vlad was the king of Valahia at the time.
During the communist era, Bucharest went through lots of transformation. The city lost important buildings that played a big role on the city heritage.
Ancient buildings with French and Turkish influences were replaced with communist inspired concrete block buildings in redevelopment projects.
The first church destroyed by Ceausescu was Enei Church (built in 1611 and destroyed in 1977).
The "must see" if you are in town are:
1. Parliament Palace/House of People, the second largest building in the world after Pentagon.
2. stop briefly in the Royal Palace Square. This was the scene of riots in 1989, which finally led to the collapse of the communist dictatorship. The former Royal Palace now houses the NATIONAL ART MUSEUM.
3. Village Museum (this is an open air museum)
4. the Atheneum, the Opera House, the Triumphal Arch
5. stop briefly in the Revolution Square
6. Cotroceni Palace (check to make sure it is open)
7. stop briefly in one of the many old churches around the town
For something different, try to stop by Manuc's Inn (Hanul lui Manuc) and either eat lunch there or have a cup of coffee.

We propose a new approach based on the use of many data collectors, which we designate Mini-Sinks (MSs), instead of a single sink in order to improve Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) performances. One or more MSs are mobile and move according to an arbitrary mobility model inside the sensor field in order to maintain a fully-connected network topology, collecting data based on the controlled Energy Conserving Routing Protocol (ECRP) within their coverage areas and forwarding it towards the single main sink. ECRP, based on route diversity, is implemented in MSs and sensors in order to optimize the transmission cost of the forwarding scheme. A set of multiple paths between MSs and sensors is generated to distribute the global traffic over the entire network. Simulations were performed in order to validate the performance of our new approach. We compare the results obtained with those for a single static sink and mobile sink, and show that our approach can achieve better results in terms of packet delivery ratio, throughput, end-to-end delay and multiple paths overhead.

First off, GREAT plugin. However, I can't get the repeater fields/sub fields to show in a custom page template. I've customized single.php and it works perfectly, as seen here: http://surge.paintanything.com/?p=6724 (website is still being re-developed so don't mind the mess). The lines with the small video cam icon are all repeater/sub fields, but if you view this page: http://surge.paintanything.com/?page_id=4296, they don't get displayed at all.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Product Review: V Wash Plus-Do You Really Need It?
Traditionally, women have never used a special 'soap' to keep their intimate parts clean. But, V Wash by Glenmark is is a vaginal wash that promises to keep you clean down there. Let's find out if this latest product is all it's cracked up to be or whether it genuinely promotes the health and hygiene of the vagina.
Soap or water are the preferred methods to maintain hygiene when it comes to your intimate parts. Glenmark pharmaceuticals have come out with V Wash Plus, a specially formulated intimate hygiene wash.
It claims to have a lactic acid formula that helps to maintain the ideal pH balance of the private parts. Soap and water increases the pH value which is between 7-10 pH. Increase in alkaline levels and pH value are risk factors that may cause dryness, itchiness and irritation.
V Wash Plus promises to restore the pH balance as it contains pH value 3.5 - 4.5. And also prevent vaginal discomfort. It also does not contain Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS) and parabens, harmful chemicals that should be avoid in any personal care products.
V Wash Plus seems like a good product to use for personal care for women. It is recommended to women who experience vaginal problems frequently. It is safe to use during menstruation as well. It is ideal to use once a day to prevent vaginal infection.
But if you are wondering is this product is for you, remember that not all vaginal infections can be cured by using V Wash Plus. It is meant to prevent dryness, itchiness and irritation, but vaginal infection and STDs need medical attention.
Overall, V Wash Plus is a safe over-the-counter personal care product. And it is true that soaps and water contain higher level of pH or alkaline value that can increase your chances of vaginal discomfort. It also contains tea tree oil and Sea Buckthorn oil, which are anti-irritants.
Test the product in case you have a reaction to it. V Wash Plus also prevents odour especially during menstruation. It is also safe to use daily even if you do not have any vaginal problems. There are no side effects while using this product.

I've always primed my beer at the same rate (5g corn sugar/L) but a recent spate of gushers has made me think that perhaps this is too much - is 4g/L more sensible? or even 3g?
4 g/L is a reasonable amount of priming sugar. It will add around 1 volume of CO2. Beer fermented at room temperature will contain round 1 volume of dissolved CO2, so adding the priming sugar brings the total CO2 volumes to 2, which is a typical carbonation for many styles.
There are a lot of priming calculators available online. You enter the beer's temperature, volume and desired carbonation level. The calculator will tell you how much sugar to add. This one comes with a nice explanation of how the calculations work.
If you're getting gushers, there are other possible explanations.

Furman Center Presents New Data on NYC Mortgage Lending
Furman Center Presents New Data on NYC Mortgage Lending
The Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy, a joint research center between NYU Wagner and NYU Law, recently released its fourth annual analysis of FFIEC's Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data, called Mortgage Lending in the Great Recession: HMDA 2009.
The analysis reflects several surprises in a tumultuous year. While home purchase mortgage lending declined throughout the recession, the study found that lending to low and moderate income home buyers increased in 2009, as did the number of new mortgages backed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and Veteran's Administration (VA). In 2009, 16 percent of New York City home purchase mortgages were FHA/VA-backed loans, compared to less than one percent of loans issued from 2005 to 2007.
The study also found, in contrast to home purchase lending, that mortgage refinancing increased substantially in 2009. The increase in refinancing activity, however, was not uniform across New York City's different racial and ethnic communities. Black and Hispanic homeowners did not refinance at the same rates as white and Asian borrowers, which suggests that not all New York homeowners were equally able to take advantage of lower interest rates and reduce their monthly payments.
Furman Center Receives MacArthur Award for Creative and Effective Institutions
Furman Center Receives MacArthur Award for Creative and Effective Institutions
The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation named NYU's Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy a recipient of the MacArthur Award for Creative and Effective Institutions. This distinguished award recognizes the Furman Center's excellence in providing objective, policy-relevant research to address the challenges facing neighborhoods in New York City and across the nation. The award, announced on February 16, comes with a grant of $1 million, which the Furman Center will use to broaden its research and policy analysis to more national issues.
"We are humbled and honored that the Furman Center was selected for such a prestigious award," said Vicki Been, faculty director of the Furman Center. "The demand for our work has grown dramatically with the housing crisis and the increasing need for sustainable and affordable housing across the country. This award presents a remarkable opportunity for us to expand our research beyond New York City to help policymakers in Washington and across the nation make more effective housing and community development investments and policies."
"Because we are based at New York University, and are a joint project of the NYU School of Law and the Wagner Graduate School of Public Service, we're able to draw on the talents of a diverse team of faculty and students to produce rigorous, interdisciplinary research on urban policy issues," Furman Center Co-Director Ingrid Gould Ellen said. "The MacArthur Award comes at a critical time, allowing us to continue to expand the work we've always done in New York City to cities and neighborhoods across the country, and to address a broader range of national issues and public policy debates."
From analyses of how subsidized housing investments affect neighborhoods, to studies of the impacts the foreclosure crisis has had on local crime, neighboring property values, tenants, and the educational trajectories of children, the Furman Center has been committed to producing objective and empirically rigorous research on pressing policy issues. Its policy breakfasts, roundtable discussions, and conferences bring thought leaders from all sectors and all points of view together to discuss topics ranging from new models for housing extremely low-income households to creative ways of addressing credit needs in a volatile and declining housing market. The Center launched an Institute for Affordable Housing Policy in 2010 to bring research, policy analysis, and debate about promising new ideas and innovative practices to bear on the challenges of creating cost-effective affordable housing programs. Through its annual State of New York City's Housing and Neighborhoods report, Quarterly Housing Updates, and Subsidized Housing Information Project, the Center provides essential data and analysis for the media, government agencies, non-profit housing providers, and affordable housing developers and financiers.
The award is both a recognition of the excellence of the Furman Center's prior research and policy analysis and an investment in the Furman Center's future. The Furman Center will use the grant to build data and research partnerships that will allow it to broaden the geographic scope of its research, strengthen and expand its policy analysis, and improve its communications and data management infrastructure.
More information, including an overview video about the Furman Center, is available here.
The Furman Center is one of only 15 organizations from six countries to be recognized today with the MacArthur Award for Creative and Effective Institutions. "From Chicago to Kampala, these extraordinary organizations demonstrate exceptional creativity and effectiveness," said MacArthur President Robert Gallucci. "They provide new ways to address old problems. They generate provocative ideas and they reframe well-worn debates. And their impact is altogether disproportionate to their size."
The MacArthur Foundation does not seek or accept nominations for its Creative and Effective Institutions awards. To qualify, organizations must demonstrate exceptional creativity and effectiveness; have reached a critical or strategic point in their development; show strong leadership and stable financial management; have previously received MacArthur support; and engage in work central to one of MacArthur's core programs.
Furman Center releases new study on racial segregation and subprime lending
Furman Center releases new study on racial segregation and subprime lending
On November 19, 2009, the Furman Center released a new report examining the relationship between residential segregation and subprime lending. The study examined whether the likelihood that borrowers of different races received a subprime loan varied depending on the level of racial segregation. It looked both at the role of racial segregation in metropolitan areas across the country and at the role that neighborhood demographics within communities in New York City played. The report found that, nationally, black borrowers living in the most racially segregated metropolitan areas were more likely to receive subprime loans than black borrowers living in the least racially segregated metropolitan areas. When looking just at New York City neighborhood demographics, the report found that living in a predominantly non-white neighborhood made it more likely that borrowers of all races would receive a subprime loan.
The Furman Center is a leading academic research center, and a joint initiative of NYU's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service, and the School of Law. The director is Vicki Been, the Boxer Family Professor of Law, and the co-director is Professor Ingrid Ellen of Wagner.
Furman Center Report and Forum Explore Gentrification
Furman Center Report and Forum Explore Gentrification
This month, the Furman Center, part of NYU Wagner and the School of Law, released its State of New York City's Housing and Neighborhoods in 2015 report. The report includes a "Focus on Gentrification" (PDF) that explores gentrification within the context of New York City's neighborhoods. Of the city's 55 neighborhoods, the report classifies 15 as "gentrifying," or initially low-income neighborhoods that have seen above-median rent appreciation. It also analyzes how their housing and population have changed over the past two decades. The report finds that they have seen greater growth in the shares of the population that are young adults, college-educated, white, and living alone or with roommates, as compared to other neighborhoods.
The widely cited annual report was introduced and discussed at a symposium (video) hosted by the Community Development Studies & Education Department of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, and the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis,
Ingrid Gould Ellen, Professor of Urban Policy and Planning at NYU Wagner, is the Furman Center's faculty director. She introduced the symposium keynote speaker, NYU Wagner Professor Katherine O'Regan, who is currently on leave as an NYU Wagner faculty member and serves as Assistant Secretary of Policy Development and Research U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Assistant Secretary O'Regan discussed neighborhood demographic, rent, and affordability trends, using research by the Furman Center. The forum also featured views from practitioners on best practices for inclusive neighborhoods and equitable development.

Getting Out the Vote, Innovatively
Getting Out the Vote, Innovatively
A fascinating article in the Sunday magazine of The New York Times describes how techniques developed by behavioral science researchers are at the forefront of a dramatic change in how politicians and parties get out the vote. The emerging data-driven approach to moving voters was co-pioneered by Don Green, currently Visiting Distinguished Professor at NYU Wagner & NYU Abu Dhabi.
"As the 1998 elections approached, Green [and fellow Yale professor of political science Alan Gerber] partnered with the League of Women Voters to split 30,000 New Haven voters into four groups," the article explains. "Some received an oversize postcard encouraging them to vote, others the same message via a phone call or in-person visit. One control group received no contact whatsoever. After the election, Gerber and Green examined Connecticut records to see who actually voted. The in-person canvass yielded turnout 9.8 percent higher than for voters who were not contacted. Each piece of mail led to a turnout increase of only 0.6 percent. Telephone calls, Gerber and Green concluded, had no effect at all."
The Times article goes on to describe why the results have proven so seminal.
As it happens, the article appeared just a few days after Professor Green spoke at Wagner's doctoral colloquium October 28.
Green has written extensively on a range of topics, including voter turnout, campaign finance, perceptual bias, rational learning, experimental methods, and rational choice theory. He is currently writing a book on field experiments in the social sciences. His resume and other materials can be found here.

Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
Okay, in case you didn't see the introduction, the concept is that each day up to and including the 23rd of November, I'll be posting four iconic covers from DC Comics' 75-year history. On the 23rd, you folks will get a chance to pick your Top 10 out of the 90 choices. I'll tabulate the votes and I'll debut the Top 75 Most Iconic Covers in DC Comics History on November 30th. In the meantime, feel free to e-mail me (email@example.com) with suggestions for covers for me to use!
Here's the next four covers! And click here for the master list of all the covers posted so far!
the last two, definitely
never seen the first two before
The first one's an absolute classic. The second seems pretty standard stuff. The 3rd and 4th are classic stories with perfectly respectable covers.
1, 3, and 4 can have cases made for them. Don't know where #2 came from.
Superman #32 is lighthearted and great, for sure. But #14 is in a class of its own – it doesn't get more iconic than that. He's not Captain America, but he is All-American: the very first "new god," in the new medium of comic books, displaying the patriotism of a still-young nation about to enter into W.W. II. The cover is all the more perfect for its lack of word balloons, and the implied motion in the cape and the eagle's wings. Bravo!
#32 has been the direct inspiration of a stack of of other Superman covers!
Never noticed the tanks behind the stars and stripes in #14 before. Is there meant to be some kind of subtext to that?
Never noticed the tanks behind the stars and stripes in #14 before. Is there meant to be some kind of subtext to that?
Depends on what you mean by subtext.
It's meant to be a reference to the US war effort (that Superman is supporting on the cover), but since it's not blatant, does that count as "subtext"? I honestly dunno.
#32 has been the direct inspiration of a stack of of other Superman covers!
Yep! That's why it is such an iconic cover!
Honestly I think #1 is the only truly iconic cover here. I don't like it much, but it is iconic
My vote goes to the third cover.
Didn't Jerry Ordway homage the first one when he started his "Adventures of Superman" run?
The second one cracks me up.
I wasn't familiar with the first cover, but I am familiar with a bunch of its imitators, so that one definitely there for me. I wasn't familiar with the second either, but it's the same sort of thing, although in some ways, I think the dialogue (It tickles) is what is truly iconic. Was that the first time Superman said it?
The first one IS what Superman is about. When voting comes, that's likely my number one.
There are a lot of iconic Superman covers from the 40s, back when the cover was more a general representation of the character than a preview of the story inside. I do not say that one is better than the other, but I DO say that the "pin up" type cover prevailed through the 40s. I like these two choices.
Number 3 – hey, it's really easy. ANYTIME Curt Swan draws the Legion of Super-Heroes – I'm there!
Number 4 is iconic, but I think it loses some of its bang out of context. It is tremendous regarding the story inside, but just the cover itself – it's a nice Alex Ross cover, it shows a very definitive image, but it's a little tougher without knowing what it refers to.
But I think all four of these are winners.
I remain,
Eric L. Sofer
The Silver Age Fogey
Yes, no, I would have gone with part 1, and I would have gone with #1.
All solid choices again. I wonder if we'll see more Superman or Batman by the time the list concludes.
So this is the montage of Superman getting attacked by stuff:
A bird,
and Fire.
Uhhhhh, since I'm not a super-guy fan, I'd have to go with the Alex Ross cover.
"Woe, woe, woe to the inhibitors of the earth …"
Sorry, couldn't resist.
hard to pick since all are iconic in their own way but picked number four for it showed even as destruction is going on in kc superman through the fire and smoke is still standing . sending the message he may be bruised by he will no fall
The first 2 covers mentions jan/feb; was Superman bi-monthly at that time?
I agree with butler 100%.
I have to disagree with people who say Kingdom Come is a classic story with respectable story. The art and covers make Kingdom Come, the story is very subpar and unheroic…borderline mediocre.
I never notice the tanks behind the shield before on #14 either. Yes, they're there because of a little scrap going on at the time that comic was printed. It was called World War II.
I think the Superman title actually started out as a quarterly, when it was first reprinting the stories for Action Comics. I don't have a definitive answer why, but it seems most anthology title were monthly, while single-character books were quarterly or bi-monthly. Even in the 60s and early 70s, "Detective" and "Action" were monthlies, while "Batman" and "Superman" were on an eight-times-a-year schedule. The indicia would read "Published monthly (with the exception of February, May, August and November)."
#1 has to be the most iconic. It was even homaged in the statue they put up over Superman's tomb in the "Death of Superman" storyline.
I'd say that first, all-American cover is the most iconic. "It tickles" is humorous. I don't know that I'll put any of these in my top 10 though.
Gotta go with the last two.
But Curt Swan belongs in a whole 'nother division of iconic. Who else would be asked to draw a cover highlighting Superman's many moods, showing his face angry, envious, sad, etc. (Too bad I can't find it right now)
Wondered when Alex Ross would show up!
I think I like 1 and 4 the best, at least for the purposes of this list (although I really like the second one, I've never seen it before, it's a fun one!).
the third one is more significant for the story, but the cover itself doesn't grab me too much.
Superman #14 is one of the greatest covers in comics history. It certainly will be in my top ten.
I wouldn't say any of these are particularly iconic. Maybe the first one.
1 and 2 easily. The last two are know for the stories only, not for the covers. the first two books are know for the covers and not the stories.
I'm surprised to see how few people are familiar with or impressed by Superman #32. I think it's iconic of a certain lightheartedness that was once in Superman, as well as a direct and humorous way of showing just how powerful he is. And as mentioned above, it's certainly been homaged.
But I can hardly argue with Superman #14. The other two I'm less impressed by: Action #593 is very nice cover (it's by Swanderson, after all), and it's got a great story behind it – but it just doesn't say "iconic" to me. And the Ross cover just doesn't impress me much at all, even though I liked Kingdom Come. It's muddy and moody without being particularly evocative – though I admit that I may have felt it was much more powerful at the time, before the Ross "brand" got so watered down.
No 1 and 3 are both iconic in my book. I don't recall ever seeing 2 before which is strange because I'm a bit of a Superman nut and love the old-time stuff. 4 is a decent cover but it certainly didn't stick in my mind at the time as something special. No 3 is my favouroite. Whatever some people might say, you can't always completely disintangle your feelings about the cover from the story inside.
In a sense, that is what an 'icon' is. Something which the 'initiated' observer invests with a significance greater than its immediate and obvious characteristics.
Although I like all four choices, I'm reserving my Superman pick in the top ten for the Breaking The Kryptonite Chains cover. I had that poster when I was a kid.
Superman #14 will come in second if I put two Superman covers in. But, I'm anticipating things like GL/GA and some Marvel titles to make me ration.
Wait, I'm an idiot.
This is Iconic Covers in DC History. So, no Marvel titles. Duh
Um, I mean, I meant Captain Marvel titles. Yah, that's what I meant.
Agree that the first cover is the most iconic. It has a chance to be in the top 10.
Since today is November 11th, shouldn't there be 11 days of iconic covers?
Mark McD,
There's a Sixties Superman cover I think you are referring to. Something like "You'll see Superman GREEN with jealousy, RED with anger, BLUE with despair!" I think it was a Red K story.
Found it, though I was quite wrong on the colors on the cover. From Action # 317 , "The Rainbow Faces of Superman"…
As to the covers above, Superman #14 without a doubt.
Fans may remember that DC itself thought this image so iconic that they used it for the statue above Superman's mausoleum in the park in downtown Metropolis after his "death."
We absolutely need to see one of those classic Superman mosaic covers. Something like this: http://www.faceoutbooks.com/media/35067/classic_mosaic_cover.jpg
Since today is November 11th, shouldn't there be 11 days of iconic covers?
There will be one on the 11th.
This list is from yesterday.
Mike Blake:
Yes, that's the one. somehow I thought it was for an 80-page Giant or annual cover where Superman's face shows a whole rainbow of emotions, representing seven stories reprinted inside.
That'd be a cool homage for a "Blackest Night" tie-in:
"See Superman turn:
RED with rage!
ORANGE with greed!
YELLOW with fear!
GREEN with willpower!
BLUE with hope!
INDIGO with something mysterious!
VIOLET with love!
BLACK with death!"
#2 is pretty famous as far as pop culture goes. Search for "Superman – It Tickles shirt" and you'll find like it's pretty popular these days.

Is it possible to install Nose (http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/0.11.1/) into a subdirectory of my home directory on a Linux machine? (I'm not on the sudoers list for that machine.) If so, how do I do that?
The answer is to use virtualenv.
But I didn't mention that (because I'm not on the sudoers list), I also did a custom Python install. When I installed correctly following Crast's instructions in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2278028/how-do-i-work-around-this-problem-creating-a-virtualenv-environment-with-a-custom/2278059#2278059, I was able to install nose using that version of Python.
Update: I didn't notice until now that when I actually run
I'll try reinstalling with the
Also most setup.py scripts support a custom root directory setting. So you can use them like:
Having that subdirectory in PYTHONPATH, you shall be able to get access to modules that you installed there.

The Sociomedical Sciences PhD program is interdisciplinary, with study divided between the Mailman School of Public Health and one of several departments in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (Anthropology, History, Psychology, or Sociology). The PhD is designed for individuals who wish to combine training in history or in a social or behavioral science discipline with research on questions significant to public health and medicine.
Students advance knowledge in their discipline of choice while also answering questions central to public health. This includes applying social science theory and methods to the study of social factors related to health status and healthcare needs, exploring the social structure of healthcare delivery systems, and analyzing the relation between these systems and the populations they are designed to serve.
The department awards a number of fellowships to recognize academic achievement and support future scholarly success. As research experience is considered an important aspect of graduate training, most fellowships and assistantships involve some form of research apprenticeship.
Admissions Requirements
PhD applicants must complete a statement of academic purpose that clearly indicates the discipline in which they intend to concentrate (anthropology, history, psychology, or sociology), articulates the questions they hope explore at the intersection of that discipline and public health, and discusses how that area of prospective scholarship will advance knowledge in the discipline or answer critical public health questions. Applicants should also note the faculty members with whom they would like to work.
As of Fall 2011, all Mailman School applications at the master's and doctoral level were moved to the Schools of Public Health (SOPHAS) common application, which contains a number of questions on public health work experience and public health leadership aspirations. These questions are not weighted heavily in the admissions process. Students with a demonstrated capacity for academic excellence and the ability to ask innovative and important questions at the juncture of their discipline of choice and public health are preferred.
In addition to the requirements listed below, all students must submit an official transcript from each prior institution, a statement of academic purpose*, a writing sample (a course paper, term paper, etc.), and three letters of evaluation from academic sources. All international students whose native language is not English or whose undergraduate degree is from an institution in a country whose official language is not English must submit Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or IELTS scores.
(Note: As of 2013, the department no longer admits students into the political science concentration)
Deadline for Fall Admission
December 1
Deadline for Spring Admission
No spring admission
Writing Sample
