The insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1R) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase involved in several biological processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, DNA repair, and cell survival. This a disulfide-linked heterotetrameric transmembrane protein consisting of two α and two β subunits, and among which, the α subunit is extracellular while the β subunit has an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. IGF1R signalling pathway is activated in the mammalian nervous system from early developmental stages. Its major effect on developing neural cells is to promote their growth and survival. This pathway can integrate its action with signalling pathways of growth and morphogenetic factors that induce cell fate specification and selective expansion of specified neural cell subsets. Modulation of cell migration is another possible role that IGF1R activation may play in neurogenesis. In the mature brain, IGF-I binding sites have been found in different regions of the brain, and multiple reports confirmed a strong neuroprotective action of the IGF-IR against different pro-apoptotic insults. IGF1R is an important signaling molecule in cancer cells and plays an essential role in the establishment and maintenance of the transformed phenotype. Inhibition of IGF1R signaling thus appears to be a promising strategy to interfere with the growth and survival of cancer cells. IGF1R is frequently overexpressed by tumours, and mediates proliferation and apoptosis protection. IGF signalling also influences hypoxia signalling, protease secretion, tumour cell motility and adhesion, and thus can affect the propensity for invasion and metastasis. Therefore, the IGF1R is now an attractive anti-cancer treatment target.

|Kerry Max Cook (center)
A former Texas prisoner who was released in 1999, after serving about 20 years on death row for charges of committing rape and murder of a 21-year-old, was finally cleared Monday.
Officials said that an East Texas state court judge approved of an agreement between prosecutors and attorneys to exonerate Kerry Cook, 60, so that he could overturn the capital murder conviction that accused him of killing Linda Jo Edwards in 1977. He had maintained his innocence for 40 years.
Cook has always been an activist protesting the death penalty and speaking against it across the United States as well as Europe.
He has written Chasing Justice, recording his battle. It had been nominated for the Edgar Award, by Mystery Writers of America. Former FBI Director and Federal Judge William S. Sessions noted: "Kerry Max Cook has written a brutal but compelling account of his 22 years on Texas's death row for a murder he did not commit. The book depicts his struggles against all odds to free himself from an inept justice system that would not let go, despite mounting and eventually overwhelming evidence of his innocence. What is perhaps most amazing is the grace with which he now lives his life as a free man, determined to prevent others from suffering the horrors he endured."
The new evidence proved his innocence and held another man guilty, said a statement from the Innocence Project of Texas, representing Cook.
Though prosecutors have agreed to drop the murder charges, they still continue to oppose his claims of real innocence. On June 27, Cook will appear again in court and clearance from charges would gain him $2 million or more to make up for the traumatic period of imprisonment.
Cook's case got national attention and stirred a lot of questions regarding the death penalty prosecutions in Texas. The state has sent most prisoners to their death, since the U.S. Supreme Court brought up the death penalty again in 1976.
In 1999, there was a "no contest" plea to murder, permitting Cook to be released from prison. It however, did not call for any admission of guilt.
He had been convicted in 1978. However, his case was appealed and retried. But in 1996, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals put down his conviction and death sentence owing to "prosecutorial misconduct."
The 21-year-old bartender had no bad record of violence. It became clear that he lived in exactly the same east Texas apartment complex as Edwards.
It was only later that DNA tests proved him to be innocent.
"It is long past time for the state of Texas to admit that it got the wrong man and that it prosecuted the wrong man repeatedly and sought the death penalty against the wrong man repeatedly," said Kathryn Kase, executive director of the Texas Defender Service, which represents death row inmates.
It is "shameful," Kase said, that prosecutors continue to challenge Cook's efforts to prove his innocence.

After nearly 40 years, murder charges dropped against Kerry Max Cook in East Texas case
Cook and his lawyers declined to speak with reporters after the court hearing. But the former death row inmate, who has been fighting for decades to clear his name, celebrated outside the courthouse, sharing hugs with his wife, Sandy, his legal team and a group of Texas exonerees who came to support him.
Cook was convicted in 1978 in the gruesome slaying of Linda Jo Edwards, a 22-year-old who was found beaten, stabbed and mutilated in her apartment bedroom. From the outset, through three trials that courts said were tainted with prosecutor misconduct, 20 years on death row and even since being released in 1999, Cook has maintained his innocence.
His quest to prove it gained worldwide attention. But his saga is not over. Now, at age 60, he can move toward a full exoneration. Prosecutors agreed to drop the murder charges, but they will continue to oppose Cook's claims of actual innocence, which would allow him to receive compensation for the two decades he spent on death row.
"Under no standard was Kerry treated fairly," said Marc McPeak, who represented Cook from 2008 to 2013. "I don't know if there is justice at this point, but hopefully there is peace."
Smith County District Attorney Matt Bingham, who declined to comment after the hearing, agreed to drop the murder charges after the latest revelation in the case destroyed one of the few remaining pieces of the state's case against Cook.
James Mayfield, Edwards' married lover at the time of her death, admitted in an April deposition that he had lied during previous trials when he said that it had been weeks since he had sex with the young woman. He admitted that he and Edwards had sex the day before she was killed – his birthday.
Mayfield was at the courthouse Monday. He left the courthouse using a walker and declined to speak with reporters.
Mayfield, a former university library dean who worked with Edwards, denied killing her, and prosecutors agreed to give him immunity in exchange for his deposition. But several DNA tests have identified his semen in the panties Edwards wore the night of her death.
In addition, Edwards' roommate, Paula Rudolph, initially told police that it was Mayfield, a man with medium-length silver hair, whom she saw in their apartment the night of the murder. She changed her story at trial and implicated Cook, though he had longer, dark hair at the time.

The West Central School Board discussed the 2012-2013 school calendar during their meeting last week. Superintendent Charles Mellon said there will be a big change in the next school year.
"Our major change in the calendar is that this coming year, every Thursday we will be having a staff development hour to begin the day,"explained Superintendent Mellon. "The students will report to school 30 minutes later each Thursday which would get them to school at 8:25 a.m. Parents are going to have to know that on Thursdays their child gets on the bus 30 minutes later. Our staff will be coming in at 7:25 a.m. So we can get in an hour of in-service."
Mr. Mellon was asked why the change was necessary.
"There's just so much newness as far as we have to take the staff through all the changes the State is making like the new evaluation system, curriculum mapping, new testing and that type of thing. We felt it was a worthwhile endeavor to have a calendar that built in such activities."

I am really surprised to know that after the launch of Windows 7 various builds, the performance of XP and Vista has increased considerably. Almost daily we could see lots of applications getting launched, all trying to replicate unique features of Windows 7 in XP and Vista both. These applications have completely changed the Windows experience.
Recently, I found yet another incredible windows software that can take your copy of XP or Vista to completely new level. WindowsSpace is a powerful desktop enhancement utility for the earlier version of Windows like XP or Vista. It has impressed me at the first glance so much so that I am running out of words to explain this great application that can replicate Aero Snap feature of Windows 7 in XP and Vista. In fact, it does a lot more than what is already incorporated in Windows 7.
WindowSpace allows you to manipulate windows in many new amazing ways –
and believe me this is not the end, it has got more to offer.
The best part about WindowSpace is that most of the actions can be triggered with the hotkeys, some by selecting the corresponding options from the window menu. Here, I am not going to describe this truck load of features one by one otherwise it will take ages. So better understand it by yourself and before reaching to any conclusion, better give it a try because it seems to be an amazing piece of creativity.
If you want to organize your desktop workspace for improved performance and easy comfort, download a free evaluation version now. Or, you can download 65-bit version as well from HERE.
WindowSpace supports Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista.

A NEW general manager has been installed at County Kitchens following the takeover of the Camberley company by Sigma 3 of South Wales.
Pat Thomas, 38, was branch manager at the kitchen and bathroom company's flagship Cardiff showroom and has been with them 18 years.
Since the take-over, Sigma 3 promised to invest strongly in County Kitchens' showrooms and predicted the business will grow and create more jobs.
County, with an annual turnover of £3million, already employs 23 people at its 8,000 sq ft showroom in Camberley and smaller outlets in Guildford and Esher.
Sigma 3, a 28-year-old company with a £10m turnover, has begun manufacturing kitchens for County at its South Wales factory.
Mr Thomas, a married father of three, lives in Bridgend, South Wales, but is staying in Fleet during the week.
He said: "I can't wait to get started. There is a real synergy between our operation in South Wales and County and I am looking to develop and build on that for the future.
"My key aim is to drive the business forward using my in-depth knowledge of the kitchen business to provide excellent customer service, top quality products and unbeatable value for money."
Sigma 3 installation manager Colin Milburn has been seconded to County Kitchens for three months where he will team up with Pat Thomas in Camberley.
Brian Lakin, chairman of Sigma 3, said: "Colin will be setting up a completely new installation team to serve County Kitchens' customers in Surrey, Berkshire and Hampshire.
"Colin, who has years of installation experience, will be managing what is a crucial part of the business which stretches from initial contact with the customer through to installation and after sales service.
"We are proud of the unrivalled installation procedure we have here in South Wales and we want to see that benchmark installation service replicated at County Kitchens."

text: If you thought Spotify had this music streaming market sewn up, think again. Amazon could soon be breathing down its neck.If reports are to be believed, Amazon is currently in talks to start up its own music streaming service, with Amazon Prime being the focal point of it. According to Recode, a 'Spotify-like' resource will eventually be bundled with Amazon Prime, as the company attempts to push its premium service into more hands.Amazon Prime recently underwent a makeover in the UK, with a price hike, but now including Amazon Video streaming, the service formerly known as Lovefilm Instant. The next (and perhaps logical) step is to make the package even more tempting with free music. The bonus for Amazon is that Prime members buy more from Amazon, so if you can get more people signed up to Prime, you sell more product too.There has also been a rumour of an Amazon smartphone as a Prime-only device too, which would sit well with a music streaming service too. We heard that was early 2014, but so far, things have been pretty quiet on that front.The music deal is far from done and dusted though. That same report claims Amazon is struggling to finalise the deal because it wants ' substantial discount' on the pricing labels give to other services. Hence why talks have now been dragging on for months.No comment from Amazon, as you would expect really. But it sounds like this is a key part of pushing Prime and as such, a deal will almost certainly be done this year. Now, what about this smartphone then Amazon?Source: Recode

By Rusty Hampton, The (Jackson, Miss.) Clarion-Ledger
JACKSON, Miss. The nation's longest active high school football winning streak ended on a frigid Friday night in Jackson in a game those in attendance will long remember.
Meridian High School defeated South Panola, No. 9 in USA TODAY's Super 25, 26-20 in overtime to win the MHSAA Class 5A state championship and stop the Tigers' winning streak at a state-record 89 games — and set off a wild celebration by the Wildcat players and their fans
"Maybe I'll get some sleep tonight," said an emotional Larry Weems, the winning coach. "I haven't slept in a month."
"We carried it as far as we could," said South Panola coach Lance Pogue. "We wanted to win, but that's the game of football. I'm going to walk out of here with my head held high.
"My guys have nothing to be ashamed of. It's tough when you lose, but give them credit; they made a few more plays than we did."
South Panola's winning streak was the third-longest high school streak of all time. Only De La Salle High of Concord, Calif. (151) and Independence High of Charlotte, (109) have won more consecutive games.
SCOREBOARD: See how the rest of the Super 25 fared
South Panola was foiled in its attempt to win its sixth consecutive state title and suffered its first loss since Dec. 6 of 2002, when the Tigers lost 21-14 to Wayne County in the 5A title game on this same field.
TROUBLED TOP 10: South Panola was not the only top 10 team to fall this week
Tyler Russell turned 12 on that day in 2002. Friday, he quarterbacked Meridian to the biggest victory of his young life, completing 21 of 36 throws for 243 yards and one touchdown.
Russell's 7-yard pass to Chris Smith on the first play of overtime set up James Barnett's 3-yard touchdown run that put Meridian ahead 26-20.
On South Panola's possession in overtime, quarterback David Renfroe was sacked by sophomore defensive end Jacoby Eason on third and fourth downs, ending the Tigers' season.
As Meridian players jumped and screamed, many South Panola players crashed to the chilled turf in anguish.
Some cried. Some simply stared into space, as if they couldn't quite believe that after six years of winning, often by lopsided margins, they had lost.
"The streak's over," said Renfroe, the South Panola quarterback. "They're a great team. They beat us. My hat's off to them, but it's sad to go out my last game like this, losing as a senior."
A crowd estimated at 13,000 cheered through biting cold. Meridian controlled the game statistically in the first half behind the play of Russell, but South Panola found a way to stay in the game.
Three times the Wildcats took a one-touchdown lead; each time the Tigers came back to tie it.
South Panola was poised to take the lead with 7:29 left in regulation after Taylor Rotenberry scored on a 4-yard pass from Renfroe to tie it at 20, but Renfroe, who doubles as the Tigers' kicker, missed the extra point.
Meridian then nearly won it in regulation, but Jet Miller's 30-yard field goal try with 10 seconds left just missed going through the uprights.
South Panola escaped close calls several times this season, and it appeared the Tigers might do it again Friday.
"I really thought we could win it in overtime," said Pogue, in his second year as the South Panola coach. "Everybody plays us hard. We understand that and that's just part of it. I'm proud of my players. They gave it all they had.
"We just battled and battled and battled and came up short."

Samsung Galaxy S6: every detail we know
In just a few days, Samsung will reveal their next smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S6. We know that. We can also readily guess at the idea that there'll be two models - the other model will have a curved display, not unlike the Galaxy Note Edge. The rest of the details we're able to gather come from images of the device(s) and clues left by Samsung. The rumors we'll be leaving to the rumor posts today. Or back last week, that is to say.

The problem with the player names in the QWC game is that we only hear them spoken. We're thus left to work out how they are spelled based on how they sound.
"Cheani" and "Freydalei" don't seem like real names. They must therefore be incorrect phonetic spellings. Our Chaser article gives this character's name as "Gianni Fidelli" (gee-an-ee) and Wikipedia's article on the QWC game gives it as "Giovanni Fidelli" (jo-van-ee).
However, I haven't gotten very far into the QWC game. Does someone who's actually made it far enough to hear this character's name want to comment? ★ Starstuff (Owl me!) 02:39, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
- It's always sounds to me as Giovanni Freydalei (surname with "R") like the first one i used. --ÈnŔîčö (Send me an Owl!) 12:50, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- Nice surnames Starstuff. One thing is for sure, There is an "R" sound in his name. :) --ÈnŔîčö (Send me an Owl!) 02:22, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
I know this is an old article and the info for Fedele being Captain goes back to 2009, but I'm hoping someone has an explanation how that was deduced. Does Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup tell you who is Team Captain? If so let me know how as I have it installed and can check. "Captain" doesn't appear on his Chocolate Frog Card from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (video game) (NDS edition), but once I do find the Captain card, it would be good to know if Fedele needs to be removed as Captain, or if Team Captain just switched between the 1994 Quidditch World Cup and the 1996-1997 school year. Thanks --Ironyak1 (talk) 19:06, January 7, 2017 (UTC)

The 15 Best Campsites in America
Lifestyle| | By Lauren Boudreau
Camping is not for everyone. You have to be OK using the stars as your nightlight and possibly going "number two" out in the woods. However, when you consider all the beauty you'll encounter in the natural world, such as a crystal blue lake or views from the top of a mountain, suddenly you forget you had to wipe your bum with leaves in order to get there.
Not much can compare to landscapes formed by ancient glaciers or giant sandy dunes that look like they belong on Mars.
You can experience all that and more when you visit the 15 best campgrounds in America.

Karen O, front-woman for New York indie-rock trio the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, was in Sydney this week performing latest production Stop The Virgens as part of the annual Vivid Live Festival. We managed to score a rare and exclusive interview with her.
Ahead of our chat, the Sydney Opera House played host to the production and encountered a full house, five nights running. Stop The Virgens has been labelled an autobiographical psycho-opera, transcending the traditional boundaries of indie-rock music, theatre and performance art. We experienced a production of elegance and beauty, darkness and emotion with a soundtrack of original music Karen began writing seven years ago.
Joining her onstage were band-mates Nick Zinner on guitar, and drummer Brian Chase. Also along for the ride was long-time Beastie Boys collaborator Money Mark, as well as Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler from The Greenhornes / The Raconteurs.
We were lucky enough to meet with Karen O and ask her a few questions.
Is the show a good indication of what we would find if we climbed inside your head?
Oh dear. Yeah, I guess so (laughs). I mean, it's a good indication but you wouldn't want to go any further then that (laughs). It can get pretty ugly up there (laughs).
How long has this production been in the works?
I started writing the songs in 2005 and had no idea what it was going to be at that point. The psycho-opera has been in production since 2010, about a year before the first shows in New York. So we have kept the music a secret for about seven years but the production process was really quick.
What would be your ideal collaboration?
It's crazy because I've already collaborated with David Lynch on his album, and there's some talk about doing some music videos for that. So, that would be right up there I would say. He's a huge hero of mine (laughs). Outside of that, my mind still goes immediately to film directors like John Waters. There'd be a huge list actually (laughs).
What's on the cards for Karen O and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs in 2012?
We've been working on some new tunes and trying to hammer them out in the studio recently. So we're hoping we'll get a new record out sooner rather than later. But it's definitely on its way and it's going to feel pretty different to the last one I think. We're using some of the same producers but we are trying to take it in a bit of a different direction.
Can you tell us a secret?
That's a tough one (laughs). Is this just between you and me? Gosh, I don't really have any. I mean, I keep my heart on my sleeve man; it's all out there. That's just who I am (laughs).
Below is a 31-minute behind-the-scenes making of Karen O's Stop The Virgens production and its debut on October 2011 at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn (courtesy of The Creators Project):

London, July 22: In the first session of Day 2 in India's opening Test of their England tour, the visitors' pace attack appeared to be struggling without the experience and resolve of Zaheer Khan to guide them. Meanwhile, England continued to make merry, just losing the wicket of Jonathan Trott to Praveen Kumar, after which Ian Bell struck up an ominous stand with Kevin Pietersen. The two took England into lunch at healthy 217/3 in 77 overs with their partnership already worth 57.
Picking up from their overnight score of 127/2 in the first innings of the first Test, England's batting assumed a more aggressive tone on the morning of the second day. Jonathan Trott who was not out on 58 and Kevin Pietersen, unbeaten on 22, hit three fours between them in the first five overs of the day. The score cantered along to 150 in 57.4 overs.
Four overs and 10 runs later however, Indian paceman Praveen Kumar finally got the breakthrough when he trapped Trott lbw with a delivery which cut in viciously. The batsman was in his way back for 70 and just 2 runs short of what would have been a century partnership, leaving England at 160/3.
Then in the 68th over, a chance to dismiss Pietersen went a-begging when Rahul Dravid grassed a delivery from Praveen at leg gully. Later in the over, the batsman added insult to injury when he brought up his 50 with the score at 174/3.
At the other end, new batsman Ian Bell was compounding India's misery by, knocking a four off Harbhajan Singh and Praveen each in successive overs. Then the batting pair teamed up to each clobber Bhajji for a boundary, before taking the score to 200/3 in the 74th over. The duo prospered to lunch, taking the score to 217/3 in 77 overs, an addition of 90 runs since the start of play. Pietersen was not out on 71 and Bell was unbeaten on 28.

Pansers are flower enemies who only appeared in the American version of Super Mario Bros. 2, a Mario-esque remake of Doki Doki Panic. After five seconds, they erupt four fire balls. Red-petaled ones just walk carefree, but green-petaled ones take their job more serious and patrol their area more safely. Blue-petaled ones are the smartest, as they approach Mario when he approaches them.
Game Appearances
Omega Pansy
Pansers make another appearance in New Super Mario Bros. Omega after a long absence. Not only red-, green-, or blue-petaled Pansers re-appear, but also the new sub-species Pansic and Pansora.
Super Panser World: Wii
Pansers appear in Super Mario World Wii along with the two sub-species Pansice and Pansunder.
Super Mario 3DS World
Pansers appear here under the name of Pansears. Unlike most games, Pansers have only 2 forms. The Light Red ones spit homing fire while the Dark Red ones surround themselves with fire. They appear in Plains Levels and Desert Levels. They have old subspecies like Pansic and Pansea, but they have a new subspecies called Pansand.
Mushroom War
Pansers appear again in Mushroom War, an MMORPG based in the Mario Bros. universe. Here they are one of the primary enemy types seen under the 8 Bit Club, alongside Shy Guys, Snifits and Ninji. Several (currently unnamed) subspecies of Pansers exist that cover the various environments, including some hybrids between them and Piranha Plants or Volcano Lotuses. Although Pansers are not playable for players who choose the 8 Bit Club faction, they can be adopted as battle pets either through completing specific quests or by purchasing them from the Dream Market (the 8 Bit's faction-specific store).
Some Pansers, known as Kampfpansers, are also shown to drive tanks for Wart and can be piloted by a Schildkrötenpanser, a type of Panser soldier that wears a helmet fashioned out of a defeated Koopa's shell. Another type of soldier Panser is the Gepansert, which is covered in armor and spits knives instead of fire. However, these three types are specifically stated to be made up of various other types of Pansers, and not their own subspecies.
- Pansers' name is most likely derived from Panzer, a German tank, and Pansy, a flower.

Needs rotate option on the app Nice to see a reply! I have set the creatives online to 9:16 but the android app does not auto rotate (even if I have the function activated on my device). It is always set to landscape. So the 9:16 ratio is not filling the screen. Any chance of an auto rotate function on the app maybe?

Wasted time Pointless as I can't get past login screen on my gnote prefer Stinova signage player managed to get it working and it does seem crisp like other reviews can't see adobe air being a help in this case
Greg MacLellan
Doesn't work After I entered the 32-character GUID, I still couldn't get it to connect to the stuff I created on the novisign site, or even the demo. It just sits on a blank screen - no messages, no indication of what's happening. Along with the website being a 100% flash app, and only mediocre in terms of usability and functionality, I've given up on this.
A Google User
NOGO the main idea is great, but adobe air is running on pure CPU, therfore poor performance. The interface is not very userfriendly. NOT SUITED FOR RETAIL!

Excellence I have found NoviSign inexpensive, easy to use, and generally excellent.

In loving memory of our Ricki Roo.
Sweetest boy ... you were the bravest, most loyal, intrepid little soul, so determined to stay with us as long as you could ... and you did, for 13 wonderful years.
Nothing could dim your joyful spirit and dauntless optimism: Not the first three years of your life in desperate loneliness and hunger and fear as a caged commodity until you were set free; nor the horrible pain of a ruptured disk, the surgery to fix it, and the long recovery afterward when you had to learn all over again how to walk, at just age six; nor the onset of diabetes five years later, enduring daily shots of insulin as just a momentary interruption of your joy-filled days; nor even the complete darkness that fell over your vision, at just the time in your life when arthritic navigation was difficult all by itself.
You are still with me, my Roo, just in a different way. I say goodnight to you and touch the small box that contains the part of you that must remain on Earth. You were the best and dearest friend I've ever had, my little "velcro dog".
What a special pal you were to "Boss" and sissy and your little girl, too. Your personality filled every corner of the house. You gave us toe licks and paw washes and all the love of your strong, valiant Dachshund heart. The paw-prints you left all over our lives will always remain.
Run and play, little boy, in that wonderful place where you wait for us. You didn't want to leave us and fought so hard to stay. It's going to be okay. We'll be together again, just like I promised you all those years ago when we found each other. And you are forever in our hearts.

Course aims
Graduates emerge with the leadership, business design and innovation skills required to successfully manage contemporary organisations in the commercial, public and not-for-profit sectors of the economy.
Course fees
For relevant fee information, are you a Local student or International student
All students at UTS pay tuition fees to contribute towards the cost of their studies.
In 2017 all offers made to domestic undergraduate students will be for Commonwealth Supported Places (CSP), which means that the Australian government makes a substantial contribution towards the cost of your education, and you pay the balance through student contributions.
The amount you pay depends on your area of study and the number of credit points (cp) in which you enrol. At UTS 48 credit points is considered to be one Equivalent Full Time Study Load (EFTSL).
The table to the right shows the amount a student can expect to pay for one year of full-time study (1.0 EFTSL).
Students can choose to pay their student contribution upfront, or if eligible, can defer their fees through HECS-HELP.
In addition to tuition fees, students are required to pay a Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF). The purchase of textbooks and other course materials may also result in additional cost.
You can calculate your student contribution as a percentage of the amounts shown on the table.
e.g. If you are enrolled in a 6 credit point Mathematics subject, your contribution would be 6/48 x $9,050 = $1,131.
Area of study and
student contribution
Student contribution
(per EFTSL or 48 cp)
Law, Accounting, Commerce, Economics, Administration, Dentistry, Medicine, Veterinary Science
Mathematics, Statistics, Computing, Built Environment, Other Health, Allied Health, Engineering, Science, Surveying, Agriculture
Humanities, Behavioural Science, Social Studies, Education, Clinical Psychology, Foreign Languages, Visual and Performing Arts, Nursing
Tuition fees for international students vary between courses and range from A$27,040 to A$40,350 per year.
Tuition fees for international undergraduate students can be found using tuition fees search.

Course structure explained
All students must complete a total of 144 credit points made up of 24 subjects, comprising 12 core subjects (72 credit points), a major comprising eight subjects (48 credit points) and four elective subjects (24 credit points).
Electives or structured elective sequences (totalling 24 credit points) can be taken from any faculty in the University, or from another university or its equivalent, with UTS: Business approval.
Students must select their major upon enrolment from any one of the following four majors: Digital Creative Enterprise, Events, Sport or Tourism.
- The Digital Creative Enterprise major is designed to prepare students to work in digital industries across creative and non-creative sectors as specialist and embedded creative professionals. Therefore, students in this particular major undertake cross-faculty, transdisciplinary studies through Creative Intelligence and Innovation subjects that emphasise versatility, agility and collaboration.
- Students in the Events major benefit from the close relationships UTS has developed with industry, which allow us to deliver relevant, applied, and high quality event management education. Students develop a solid understanding of the sequential steps associated with the design, development, planning, promoting and implementing of innovative events, as well as the political, economic and social contexts in which events take place. The event major provides students with the knowledge and professional skills necessary to embark on a career in the events industry.
- The multi-billion dollar sport industry has experienced significant growth in professionalism, revenue generation and number of people in all levels of management, in both the professional and community sport sectors. UTS is uniquely placed with expertise and networks across multiple codes of sport as well as international and national sports bodies. Through applied knowledge and professional internships, the Sport Business major allows students to gain a thorough understanding of Australian and international sports industries, the role sport plays in culture and society, and the interrelationships between sports bodies and key stakeholders.
- The Tourism major provides exposure to professional practice in all sectors of national and global tourism through dynamic and multifaceted modes of practice-orientated education. These include field visits, exposure to a leading travel industry guest speaker and the opportunity to apply classroom knowledge to the internship program. In all tourism subjects there is a strong emphasis on applying theory to industry practise though individual and group reports and industry projects.
Industrial training/professional practice
Each major within the course has a compulsory professional internship program and a capstone industry-based project.

About us Edit
We here at The Last are looking for... no not new members, not new people to group with, but new friends.
We are a group of friends, old and new, that understand that life comes first. We are what you would call a "Working mans guild". At the moment, our guild is active in Pirates of the Burning Sea (Morgan Server, British), Vanguard and will be active in Conan and WAR. Not everyone is in each game, but we all are active. Some, of course, are more active than others, however all of us keep in touch on our website and Teamspeak server. We are going to be playing other games as well in the future as we are a community of friends and not just a single-game guild. We are looking to share experiences across different games while still staying knit together as a guild.
Maybe you've been wondering about something new, but yet familiar. Maybe you've been looking for a place where the relationships are more prevalent than the items in a game. Maybe you've been looking for a community that's into more than just one game, allowing you to forge long-lasting relationships with people that span across several games . . . or even to be able to hang out when you're not playing any game at all with a group of friends online.
It's not really all about max level in minimum time, is it? Others game like this, but you don't. You're looking for something different – something that will be more comfortable to you. You don't consider yourself casual really, but you're also most definitely not able to put in the time to be considered hardcore (although you really wish you had that time sometimes).
Work/life/circumstances get in the way sometimes; you'd like to be somewhere people not only "get" that but experience it as well in their lives. You'd like to be a part of a community like that, something that embraces that and doesn't penalize for it.
You'd like your guild to be where everybody knows your name - NORM!
That's what we are at The Last.
We're a guild that's making the move to outreach to more like-minded individuals who are looking to be a part of a ground-floor opportunity - a chance to help build someplace special, something unique, that will not only provide a great gaming experience, but also a great friendship experience.
The type of people we are looking for are people that are intelligent, witty, and generally good-hearted people. We want people that understand the value of the individuals in the guild as friends not just people to group with when you want to play for a few hours.
If you are looking for a huge guild, where you are always surrounded by members, and always have members to group with, then we are not going to be the place for you right now. However if you want a place to call home where we game when we can, chat on Teamspeak, and find goofy stuff to post on our website, a place that you can walk away from for a bit to take care of real life issues, come back to and talk with everyone about those issues, and where we know your name not just your online persona, The Last is going to be exactly that. We're looking for folks that want to start small and help build a place that's worth being The Last guild you'll ever need to join.
If you're looking to help build someplace like this, then we'd love to have you along. Come by www.thelastguild.com to see what we're all about. We've been established as The Last since January of 2007. Check out our FAQ [1] and our Code of Conduct [2], which both say a little bit more about who and what we are. If you are still interested in becoming a friend and member of The Last fill out our application, which is to the left just under our FAQ.
Warm regards,
The Last

UPDATE: "I am not a witch" is no way to start a political ad, but there was the inimitable Christine O'Donnell starting her first television ad with just those words. The ad was a Saturday Night Live skit waiting to happen, which of course happened the next weekend. O'Donnell went on to express her conviction that the First Amendment does not dictate the separation of Church and State. Not only has O'Donnell handed the Democrats an easy win in Delaware, but her ads on Philadelphia television have taken a toll on Pennsylvania's GOP Senate candidate Pat Toomey.
Voters may want a change, but they also value sanity. What is especially interesting about O'Donnell is that she is so obviously a flake, I don't see why the Tea Party crowd, which is nothing if not earnest, backed her. Coons has opened up a 17 percent lead in the RCP poll average. The day after the election, Ms. O'Donnell will become a footnote in political history, a hilarious footnote.
ORIGINAL POST: There are many ways a politician gets "introduced" to the rest of the nation. For example, in 2004, a state senator from Illinois was tapped to give the keynote address to the Democratic National Convention and America was introduced to Barack Obama. In 1974, Senator Sam Ervin was well known in Washington and in North Carolina, but his chairmanship of the Senate Committee investigating Watergate introduced Ervin to the nation.
Last night, Christine O'Donnell had a different kind of introduction to the nation. The surprise victor in the GOP Senate primary in Delaware was seen in an old MTV video talking about, well, how to put this in a family newspaper, well, self-pleasure of a sexual sort. O'Donnell spoke several times in the video about the topic. (She is opposed to it.) On CNN, the four news analysts struggled to figure out how to discuss the video until someone finally said the "M" word. The visible discomfort of the panelists is about to be visited upon the good people of Delaware who, like the CNN panel, are not comfortable discussing such matters on camera.
If Democrats are smart, they will lay off GOP House leader John Boehner and make Ms. O'Donnell the face of the resurgent GOP. Why make Delawarians and CNN analysts squirm when you can make the whole country squirm? The significance of O'Donnell's victory is not only that it makes it that much more difficult for the GOP to have any chance at taking back the U.S. Senate, although that is significant enough. The real value to Democrats is that O'Donnell, who possesses a Palinesque love of the camera, is the train wreck no one can take their eyes off. She is attractive and well-spoken and she is a little bit crazy.
Republicans elsewhere can try and distance themselves from O'Donnell, but the message of last night for them was simple: Take on the Tea Party at your peril. All year, Republicans have been stoking the flames that have now engulfed several of their leading candidates. They have winked at the birthers, they have accused the President of being a socialist, and they have mouthed angry, albeit absurd, rhetoric about threats to the Constitution. Now they must reap what they have sowed. Joe Miller, the Tea Party-backed nominee in Alaska, may have a Yale degree and a West Point diploma, but Democrats must portray him, and Sharron Angle in Nevada, and Rand Paul in Kentucky, and whoever wins the too-close-to call Senate primary in New Hampshire, as O'Donnell's kissin' cousins. If they try to distance themselves from one of their own, they risk alienating the Tea Party faithful who looked more than a little self-congratulatory last night at their victory party in Dover.
The one downside of O'Donnell's eccentricity is that the distractions will keep the focus away from what is a genuinely important and interesting issue: How will the libertarian impulses of the Tea Party crowd cohere with the social conservatism that animates much of the GOP base? I have long thought that this is a fight brewing beneath the surface of the GOP's primary electorate, but that it will only come into focus during the long presidential nominating process for 2012. In a midterm, the candidates do not ever have the national attention long enough for such philosophic difficulties to enter the media narrative. In this instance, O'Donnell might have been able to expose the ideological fault lines within the GOP base, but not now. This will be a circus not a debate.
When running against incumbents at a time of national dissatisfaction, a challenger wants to keep all the focus on the incumbent. The only hurdle that the challenger must leap is being seen as generally inoffensive, not an embarrassment, different from, not even better than, the incumbent alternative. In 1980, Ronald Reagan kept the focus clearly on Jimmy Carter. In 2008, Barack Obama kept the focus clearly on George W. Bush. Both Reagan and Obama had to prove themselves capable, not an embarrassment, and both did. Voter disgust with the status quo did the rest. This year, the ideal GOP challenger is bland, competent, but bland. With O'Donnell's particular brand of zaniness, Democrats now have a camera-ready target as well. That is how you turn an election from a referendum on the status quo into a choice election.
America, meet Christine O'Donnell. If Democrats are smart, they will make sure that she is the face of the GOP from now until November. You may laugh. You may cry. But, you will think twice before deciding to vote the bums out.

-1Bad Memory
Athena Constantine Callaway glared at her husband, Mark as he tried to explain away the woman who answered his phone the previous night. It was seven o'clock in the morning and Athena had just put the last bag in the trunk of her black Mustang GT. They'd been having problems on and off for the last three months. For the last month the couple hadn't even shared a room, let alone a bed. Athena cursed herself the night before when another woman answered the phone to her husbands hotel room. She should have done more to keep him. Did she love him? Yes. Did she want to hold on to him? Hell yes. But could she forgive him for the ultimate betrayal? For breaking their wedding vows? Probably not.
"Mark I don't want to hear your excuses. Like you like to say, excuses are like assholes everybody has one and they all stink. You are both a huge asshole and you smell like shit. I wish I'd never married you." Athena yelled, getting in her car and pulling out of the long drive way.
Mark raked his fingers through his hair and sighed, letting his hand hit the side of the house with a bang. What was wrong with him? Why did he drink so much the night before? He always swore he'd never cheat on Athena, never hurt her. He remembered when he'd caught Sara cheating, it had almost broken his heart. Now he'd done the same to Athena. Only he'd hurt her worse than he could ever imagine anyone hurting him. As he watched her pull out of the drive way he pulled his cell phone out of his pocket calling Glen Jacobs, his onscreen brother. He'd be able to talk some sense into Athena. She saw him as an older brother. The only reason Athena had even agreed to date Mark at first was because Glen talked her into giving him a chance. She was an innocent virgin than, barely 22. Now she was 23 and though Mark had taken her virginity he'd hardly taken the time to show her what real sex was like. She was too innocent for that. To angelic, too young, pure.
"What's up Mark?" Glen answered the phone. "How well did Athena take it?"
"She left man." Mark said, sighing. "She was already packing when I got here. She didn't listen to much. Just called me an asshole and left."
Mark almost dropped the phone when he heard a loud crash.
"Athena!!!!" Mark yelled, sprinting down the long drive to the end of the road. He saw the Mustang not far down the rode, a big F350 crashed against the drivers side of the car. "Athena!!!"
Mark yanked open the passenger door, dropping the cell phone to the ground. He saw her small body, head slammed against the window, blood dripping down her face. He quickly removed his long sleeve shirt and placed it against her head to stop the bleeding.
"Athena baby. Wake up." Mark said, unbuckling the seat belt carefully.
"Sir. Sir." Mark heard someone saying behind him. Mark turned to see the young boy that had jumped out of the truck. He saw red, wanted to rip the mans head off for hurting his beautiful wife. "The ambulance is on the way. There's a man on the phone that wants to talk to you."
The boy reached his hand out with Mark's cell phone in it. He snatched the phone out of his hand.
"Glen get down here now." Mark said, not letting his eyes leave Athena again.
"Mark what's going on?" Glen asked, already packing a bag.
"There's been an accident." Mark said.
"How bad?" Glen asked, stopping and sitting on the hotel bed.
"Bad." Mark said, hanging up just as the cops and the ambulance pulled up.
"Sir. We need you to get out so we can check on the young woman." The paramedic said.
Mark moved to the side of the rode, glaring at the punk that was talking to one of the other officer's.
"Sir I understand your angry but I need some information." The officer said. "What's your relationship with the young woman? Is she your daughter?"
"She's my WIFE!" Mark growled.
"Sorry sir. What's her name?"
"Athena. Athena Callaway." Mark said, turning to see the officer helping the three paramedics carefully remove Athena from the mangled car. He watched as they lay her carefully on the board and started inserting IV's in her hands.
"Can I go with my wife?" Mark asked.
"Yes sir." The paramedics said, loading her in the ambulance.
Mark sat back quietly as he watched the men work on her, he let his eyes fall on the machine next to them. He could hear the beeping and see the numbers. At that moment he wished that he could remember what they all were for and if her numbers were good or bad. He couldn't remember what numbers were good blood pressure, though the doctor checked his weekly. All he knew was that her small numbers were much lower than his large ones.
When he blinked his eyes once more they were at the hospital. Houston Regional Hospital. They'd gone the hour drive to Houston and Mark hadn't even noticed. He shook his head, trying to think.
Glen. Glen's leaving Houston to go to the house. He's probably at the hospital at home. He followed the men as they pushed Athena through the double doors of the hospital and was surprised to see Glen, Dave Batista and Ashley Massaro already standing at the ER entrance. Before Mark could ask Glen opened his mouth.
"I called the PD they said they were bringing her here. Why…." Glen began only to let his eyes fall on the small woman on the bed. "Oh my……"
Mark turned to see tears falling down Ashley's face and her burying it into Dave's shirt. Mark shook his head and turned to watch as they took his wife through more double doors and out of his sight. He took a step closer only to be stopped by one of Glen's large hands.
"They won't let you back there man. Let's go find someplace to wait." Glen said, putting a hand on Mark's back and leading him to the waiting room.
Mark let his head fall in his hands and shook his head again. It was like his entire life was going in slow motion. He opened his eyes to see a man in his mid-twenties standing in front of him.
"Can I have your autograph?" The man asked.
"Could we get Mr. Callaway a private waiting room?" A doctor asked from the entry way.
"I'm Mrs. Callaway's doctor will you please follow me." The doctor led them down the hall to a small room and asked them to sit.
"How's my wife?" Mark asked.
"Your wife's blood pressure is very low, she has lost a lot of blood. She has a concussion, a bruised rib, sprained wrist…. Mr. Callaway most of your wives injuries are minor but she isn't responding to us."
"What do you mean?" Mark asked.
"Mr. Callaway your wife is….she's in a coma." The doctor said. "There are some medicine's that we could give her for pain. For her blood pressure. They may help. Sometimes the pain and low blood pressure can keep a person from wanting to wake up."
"Do whatever you have to." Mark said, waving a hand.
"No." Ashley said, standing up.
"What? Who do you think you are?" Mark demanded.
"It'll hurt the baby." Ashley said, turning to the doctor. "If you give her those drugs it'll hurt the baby, won't it."
"Baby?" Mark asked, turning to look at Ashley.
"She was going to tell you next week on father's day." Ashley began, biting her bottom lip. "The baby is okay right?"
"I'm not sure ma'am. I'll need to go re-examine your wife." The doctor stated, leaving the room.
Mark watched as the doctor left. Not only was he losing his wife, but also his child. And the worse part was that it was all his fault. If the woman hadn't been in his hotel room, if he hadn't have hurt his wife. She wouldn't have been in that car, she wouldn't be in this hospital. He let the tears stream down his face. For the first time in a long time he prayed.
