Mark, just saw the videos.......I think you were further and better off sticking to underhand casting.......I see no economy of motion there, looks like you are trying too hard with the top hand, and all I see really is straight rod path with overhang. Now how about that video with a long belly waist deep with a real change of direction single spey????:thumb:
Bruce, What great good fortune! By pure luck and your reference to the movie metaphor (I utilized The Da Vicnci Code), I have succeeded in deciphering the hidden message within the text of this thread. Here it is: Even Though Extra Thrust Extends The Effect (Through Energy Transfer), Evidently The Errant Thinking Ends The Enlightenment, Temporarily Eclipsing Truth. It was right there in front of me the whole time, I just didn't see it until you made reference to "ET". Thank you, sir! (I suppose it could stand for something else, but I can't imagine what...) If you'll excuse me now, my restraint straps are beginning to chafe, and Spazz jacked the last of the Baby Wipes.
Greg, that's fun.... Easy Take Essential Toolkit, Elusive Torn, Enigmatic Torture, Ecstasy Thrust, and finally, Bruce, do you Eat Tilapia?
I have researched this topic in depth, and here are the results: http://youtu.be/rNzZ-cIJSec Exxtra Tatas.:beer1: cheers I mean, we have gone 13 pages on the first thread, 21 pages on this thread, and we still haven't seen the beef. Show some vid of the actual "revolutionary" cast being performed by you, Mark. Under ACTUAL fishing conditions. Seriously man. You are so full of it.
Things were going so well, but we are at personal attacks again. Let's get back to actual discussion again, as this is really getting tiresome.
Spaz if you don't like the way this thing is going why don't you quit reading it. You add nothing to this converstion. Mostly what I see from you is a demonstration of how little you know about casting, your social ineptness, and a need to belittle other's opinions.
James, Kerry, I think you're wrong, though you're entitled to your opinions. I've made more actual contribution to this discussion than both of you put together. I've also questioned and belittled a stupid idea. I just want to see the beef. I suspect concepts behind the thread, question the logic, and want to see some proof that the laws of physics have been rewritten. I also want to see if this is a buch of theoretical hot air or whether Yuhina can back up his assertions or not. So far, not. Other attempts at starting flame wars with me haven't worked out well, pay attention to that pattern... but if you have something to contribute, let's hear it. I'll stay on point and topic.
Thanks for quoting that before I had a chance to clean it up a little. I, Bruce and others are asking you to provide some proof of your theory, and you claim to have been effortlessly performing this revolutionary new cast last week. Some video proving that would clear the channel quite nicely. Unless your definition of a clear channel is spouting bullshit without being challenged... which I'm afraid I can't accommodate. Edit: reference post #298...You've backed off considerably from your position at the beginning of the read, where you were claiming a revolutionary new cast and a heretofore unheard of method of tightening loops. Now in #298 you're saying no, we misunderstand that, it's just a new way to DESCRIBE the cast... well, keep backing down, you're about halfway there Mark. Truth is, you'd like to be able to describe the effect of overhang on a cast using Wiki physics. OK, that's a very worthy goal and I can get behind it. I think eveyone would like to see that.
Spaz, I am not trying to start flame war with you. I am expressing my displeasure with the way you communicate. Most of your posts appear jejune at best to me. You add little to the discussion from my point of view and I believe I am not alone. Perhaps you should re-evaluate what it is you are attempting to do in this thread. From outside appearances it seems you are attempting to discredit Yuhina and his ideas. To what purpose and what end? It also appears and if you are trying to make yourself look like some sort of expert in 2 handed casting. If this is true, it is not working. I am a fisherman, not a caster. I read this stuff to learn and perhaps improve on my abilities. I have been tossing fly line with a 2 handed rod for over 15 years and I still feel I can learn a thing or two. Although my bad habits are likely so ingrained I doubt anyone could help my casting. I don't contribute much to a conversation like this one because I don't spend the time to analyze each component of the cast like Mark and others do. I enjoy reading threads like this. I encourage people to push the limits of thought and action. This is how ideas are formed and innovation is created. If you want to challenge the idea, do so, but please leave out your sophomoric commentary. It does nothing to further the conversation.
Speyspaz, First, If you can recall my post #, i have mentioned this is not your living room, so you need to say things carefully, if not respectful. Second, What people here are saying to you is a simple thing we say to a 3 year old kid "be respectful". same idea. Third, IMO. Be respectful to other opinions is the MINIMUM REQUIREMENT to enter this arena. That's where I am in my thread, this is not related to how much I WANT to put in. Forth, If you WANT me to put in more, you need to ask, and most importantly, you need to be POLITE... because I don't give things out just because you WANT it. Fifth, Do I provide my back up rational and logic behind the first post? Yes, I do, plenty of writings, videos, diagrams, and equations. (see #230 for summary if you feel there are too much "noises" in this thread). And because you did not get it or can't understand it, Does it means those efforts does not exist? Six, Yes, I can put more energy in this thread and explain more... of course I can and I will ... but you need to be more polite though... obviously now your attempt (s) is not impressive enough.:hmmm: Mark
Thank you, Kerry. Your post before this was a personal attack, which doesn't help your argument when you're telling me I'm personally attacking someone... talk about "sophomoric commentary". The irony is delicious. My social skills or lack of them, whether you like my style or not, and whether or not you think I am a good caster are really immaterial in this discussion. But I am happy for you that you found a chance to use "jejune" in a sentence. Trying to make myself an expert? far from it. I have quite a ways to go myself in casting. I think I've made that pretty clear here and elsewhere, but like you, I know what I know based my experience on the water, for my own considerable amount of time... And any new concept must pass the tests of common sense and practicality on the river. This one doesn't. Now, the issue of my motivation...let's expand that out a bit to include everyone. Conjecturing on others' motivation never seems to work out well, google "Primary Attribution Error" and you'll quickly get that point. I hope you believe me when I say I've been giving my motivation a hard look, and am not upset by what I see. I keep coming back to the basics. If it's a forum, everyone has a say-even those you disagree with. Yuhina is clearly a very intelligent grown man. What say you let him defend his concepts on his own?
...and you, mister, you need to show some vid. In my humble, misinformed, socially inept, sophomoric opinion. There have been repeated requests- polite, not polite, direct and indirect. What say you get to work on that. This board already has mods, you can relax and trust them- if ol' Spaz gets out of hand, be assured I'll be spanked. BTW, I AM in my living room. Happy New Year to you.

There will always be a need for the marines to storm a beach or coastline. The air force and navy can pound the objective with bombs, but you still need to go in and "clean up" as they say. The cancellation of the EFV by the "powers to be" is a sad day for the marines. Now they want to downsize the requirements for the next amphibious vehicle, the ACV with a very slow speed of 12 knots. Terrible politics being played on the lives of our young men and women. They say the cost of the EFV is too much. Well, how much cost do you put on a life ? The marine program office personnel who think they can get a vehicle for 10-12 mil is smoking dope. Unless they just want to go buy a bunch of 70s technology AAVs...
Dj on 04/07/2011 at 08:35
To ATF:I understand your concern misleading. But the SecDef & CMC's comfort w/the 12mi buffer is due to developments over the last yr. Part of it is the Naval advances in missile protection. But another part was eluded to early in the article. This past yr the USMC has finished Eval on its Enhanced Company Operations (ECO) Concept. Incorporated into ECO was STOM. Combined they launch Marine Inf Coys fr/100mi+ @sea to seize key terrain beyond the beach, basically pushing the buffer zone in the other direction instead of further out to sea.
Eric on 03/16/2011 at 13:26
An excellent article-only sore point is that the term "Marines" is always spelled with a capital "M".Regardless of the assigned mission,the Marine Corps is a "Force of Execution,which performs as directed".
Mike Janay on 03/15/2011 at 21:51
I personally don't believe anything Sec. Gates or Gen. Amos say about missile capabilities. These are the same two people that said enemy missile technology poses too much of a threat to our navy, less than a year ago during and after the DoD Quadrennial review. I predict a sad day for the Marines when the next major amphibious assault occurs if we continue down this path of allowing Naval ships to come in to 12 miles loaded with a cheap amphibious coffin called ACV. We are only kidding ourselves if we stand by and say, Marines will never again fight another Inchon or Iwo Jima. The past has a way of repeating itself, since we the American people like to forget the lessons history has taught us. Pray for the Marines, they need all the help they can get!

Thread: QiQu 1.0.4

QiQu 1.0.4
QiQu is a framework to support the MDA and MDSD approach. It transforms a UML model into source code. It lets you build your own domain-specific generators that transform your models into the code of your choice, respecting your architectural design. You are not limited to any predefined transformation engines or cartridges, nor to any predefined transformation rules. Since QiQu heavily relies on XML, you can not only convert from XMI (representing UML) to source code, but from any XML format into anything else.
Extraslib examples were added to the Web site. A bug in which the script folder was not created when creating a new QiQuproject was fixed. The link to download the files directly from the qiqu was removed. Manually added classpath entries in a launch configuration were overwritten. Content in the Variables view (while debugging) is now sorted. When extending QiQu with commands which use additional libraries, the additional classpath entries in the launch configuration were not considered. This has been fixed.

After I have been driving for a while and my engine has had sufficient time to heat up, my car begins to overheat while idling. As soon as I accelerate, the thermostat needle falls back into the mid-range.
This problem was previously diagnosed as a bad water pump. I had the water pump replaced a year ago and it fixed the problem, up until recently when the same exact thing started occurring again.
Is is possible that my water has gone bad again? If so, is there another issue that may be causing this? I don't want to have to replace it every year!

One person was taken to hospital and pronounced dead after a crash which left a busy Kitchener intersection closed for much of Friday morning.
Police closed the intersection of Fairway Road and Wilson Avenue at 8:30 a.m. as they investigated the crash. It remains closed, flooding nearby streets with traffic.
One vehicle reportedly left a parking lot, went over a sidewalk and hit a tree before crossing into oncoming traffic.
Paramedics took the driver to hospital, where they were pronounced dead.
Police say they are looking into the possibility the driver suffered a medical episode before the crash.
No information about the victim has been released.

Nikon US has announced a radio-frequency camera triggering system compatible with all its current DSLRs. The WR-10 system works over a 60m range and, unlike the current infrared system, does not require a line-of-sight between the trigger and the camera. Users of mass-market Nikons (D600 and below) can use the WR-T10 transmitter to focus or fire cameras with WR-R10 receivers attached to them. Owners of pro-grade DSLRs with 10-pin connectors can use the WR-A10 adapter to connect the R10 to their camera. This combination allows the camera to act as a host that can remotely trigger up to 64 other cameras.
The system was released in Europe in November, alongside the D5200.
From D5200 press release:
New optional WR-R10 and WR-T10 Wireless Remote Controllers
WR-T10 Transmitter | WR-R10 Transceiver |
The D5200 is also compatible with a new wireless radio frequency remote accessory, the WR-R10 and WR-T10 Wireless Remote Controllers. When using these devices, the camera can be triggered remotely, making it ideal for group shots, remote applications, or to reduce shake when the camera is mounted on a tripod. This new wireless remote system operates from a radio signal rather than infrared light, dramatically increasing functionality and range. Now the camera can be triggered from up to 20 meters (66 feet) away, and a direct line of sight is not necessary.
The WR-T10 Transmitter and WR-R10 Transceiver, pictured here with the WR-A10 Adapter (on the left). |
The remotes also enable the bulb function for long shutter applications, as well as functions of the camera that are affected by a half-press of the shutter, including the engagement of the AF system or starting and stopping video capture. The WR-R10 transceiver can be connected to the accessory terminal of many Nikon D-SLR cameras including the new D5200, D3200 and D600. For those cameras that feature a 10-pin terminal, the optional WR-A10 adapter can be fastened to allow use of the wireless remote controllers.
WR-A10 Adapter (Allows use of WR-R10 with high-end DSLRs with 10-pin connectors) |
Pricing and Availability
The WR-T10 Wireless Remote Controller will be available at the end of January for a SRP of $94.96*, WR-R10 Wireless Remote Transceiver for an SRP of $126.96*, the WR-A10 Wireless Remote Adapter for a SRP of $74.96* and the WR-10 Wireless Remote Controller Set will be available for a SRP of $277.96*.

I'll Take a Pre-Made Embryo To Go, Please
There has been a veritable flood of articles in Canadian media recently about the practice of California IVF: Davis Fertility Center Inc. creating embryos to sell to clients to be used in IVF. See, for example, Wendy Leung's "Should IVF patients be allowed to buy embryos?", Sharon Kirkey's "For Sale: 'donor embryos' newest addition to world of artificial procreation" and "Marni Soupcoff on the sale of fertilized embryos: how much for that blastocyst in the window?"
As a lawyer practising in fertility law with my ear to the ground and an active embryo donation practice, California IVF's practice wasn't news to me. In fact, over the past three weeks I have made as many presentations about embryo donation, all of which began with a statement about what embryo donation in Canada is not (being the practice in which California IVF is engaging).
In Canada, it is illegal to purchase (but not to sell) donor eggs or sperm (punishable by up to 10 years in jail and/or a $500,000 fine), but it is legal to import donor eggs or sperm which were paid for abroad (see my earlier post here on this topic). It is also illegal to purchase or sell embryos in Canada (also punishable by up to 10 years in jail and/or a $500,000 fine). Although Bill C-38 (formerly known as the Omnibus Bill) introduced new legislation this past June that, when it takes effect, will regulate the importation of donor eggs into Canada (a practice which is currently unregulated), Bill C-38 and the Assisted Human Reproduction Act are curiously silent when it comes to regulating the importation of donor embryos into Canada.
Altruistic embryo donation, though, is legal and in my opinion, an excellent option worth consideration when a person has embryos left over from their own IVF cycle(s) (the other options being discarding the embryos, donating them to medical research or indefinite cryopreservation).
As a whole, the articles focus their collective outrage about California IVF's practices on the aspect of purchasing and selling donor embryos. While this practice is strictly prohibited in Canada and certainly raises ethical concerns for some who argue that it is commodification of human life, I would argue that for many of us who practice in the fertility sphere, it's not the exchange of money that is so unconscionable. In fact, I would make an educated guess that while practitioners in Canada respect the law, most are strongly opposed to the AHRA's prohibition on the sale of gametes and believe that it is bad policy (the same is not necessarily true about the purchase and sale of embryos).
Based on my conversations with fertility lawyers and clinicians, the ethical concern and associated uproar isn't about the sale of embryos per se, but about clinicians creating embryos at their discretion without any particular parents in mind, using the characteristics that the clinicians determine are most likely in demand, which the clinicians then try to sell to potential intended parents. Clinicians creating embryos out of donor eggs and donor sperm for an infertile individual or couple's use at the request of the parent(s) -- it happens all the time. Clinicians creating embryos with the hope that at some point a parent will show up and purchase the stockpiled embryos -- this is what is so upsetting to so many.
Legally, other than the commodification issue, there is nothing at odds with Canadian law about California IVF's practice, assuming both the sperm donors and the egg donors have provided proper consent. Why is it, then, that this is so disturbing to so many of us, myself included? Dr. Laskin of LifeQuest IVF was quoted as saying that, that while many of his colleagues are uneasy with what's happening in California, "[t]wo to five years from now, people may not even bat an eye at this."
This may be true, but for now, I agree with Francoise Bayliss that it is preferable (though not necessarily practical) to use one of the thousands of embryos indefinitely cryo-preserved in the clinics across Canada.

Denied Rs 4,000 crore after promise, the Dalits will turn their grouse into an assembly-byelection issue against the Akalis in Moga.
The Chamar Mahan Sabha has charged the Punjab's ruling alliance with ignoring the problems of the Scheduled Castes and not implementing the welfare schemes. "The state government promised during the last state election to allocate Rs 4,000 crore to the Scheduled Castes sub plan for the welfare of the Dalits," said sabha president Paramjit Singh Kainth. "However, it is yet to use even a penny out of this scheme for their welfare "
The government had used the promise as a bait to get Dalit votes, said Kainth, adding that it had not activated high-power vigilance and monitoring committees to look into atrocities against members of the Scheduled Castes. "They have not called the meeting even once," said Kainth. The chairman of this team is the chief minister himself, and the members are legislator of various parties.
The sabha has demanded a white paper on the issues of inactive committees. "The Akalis are biased against the SC community," said Kainth. "This attitude should change, if they want Dalit votes in the Moga byelection. The SC community has more than 35% share in the state's total voting population."

In Irizarry v. Catsimatidis, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals recently ruled that the owner of a supermarket chain with over 1700 employees could be held personally liable for his company's alleged FLSA violations. Specifically, a class of employees of the supermarket chain alleged that they were improperly classified as exempt employees and, as a result, they were not paid overtime in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and New York law. The employees also alleged they were retaliated against for engaging in protected activity under the FLSA. The Appeals Court, adopting what it termed the "economic reality test," determined that the owner qualified as an "employer" for purposes of the FLSA because he had operational control of the business, including the hiring and firing of managers and general oversight over the business. The Court reached this conclusion even though the owner had no knowledge nor any input into any of the decisions that gave rise to the alleged FLSA violations. Thus, the Appeals Court held that the employees could hold him personally liable for the alleged FLSA violations in question, which means they could place a lien against his personal assets if they obtained a judgment, and he failed to satisfy the judgment. Moreover, while the case before the Appeals Court concerned an owner of a business, the court's analysis strongly suggests that the same principles it employed in reaching its conclusion could be applied to managerial employees below the rank of business owner. For these reasons – as well as the additional reason that insurance policies do not generally cover claims alleging unpaid wages – it is critical for employers to rigorously review their wage and hour compliance procedures, particularly the process by which they determine whether or not a particular employee or group of employees are exempt from overtime pay under federal and state law.

Troublesome tagging bad for business
Updated 3:01 am, Tuesday, April 30, 2013
Sasha Besse and her husband, Jeremiah Almond, are living the San Francisco urban life that you don't read about in tourist brochures. They have two businesses near Sixth and Howard streets.
Many mornings, Almond starts his day by painting over graffiti tags on their buildings. The next morning the tags are back.
"I just don't know what the problem is," Besse said. "It is clearly the same guys. Why don't the police stake this out and catch them?"
Capt. Michael Redmond of Southern Station says there are several steps graffiti-tagged residents can take.
"First, I want to know about it," he said. "If they actually see it happening, that's a legitimate 911 call. If the tag is already there, call 311. You can also take a photo of the tag and e-mail it to the graffiti abatement guys."
The frustration is not only are tags simple vandalism, they can affect the general tone of the neighborhood, as city officials seem to recognize.
"It seems to clean up pretty good when Obama is in town," Besse said. "Since he stays right near here."
A member of The Chronicle's staff was recently driving near the Tenderloin when a man came running out into the street, ran smack into the side of the car and collapsed. Our staffer stopped to see if he was all right, but he declined medical help or a lift to the hospital.
Finally the driver asked if $20 would help. Brightening considerably, the victim took the money and sauntered away.
An old scam, says Tenderloin police Capt. Joe Garrity. But the worst he says was last year when a man in a wheelchair came barreling into the street, broadsided a car, and fell to the ground. The concerned driver announced he was going to call the police for an official report.
But when he came back around, only the wheelchair was there. The victim had ditched it and taken off running.
Quite the fuss over at 88 King St., the condo towers across from AT&T Park. Someone posted an e-mail "regarding the nuisance caused by children under 18" and claimed there was a move to make it a "No-Child Building."
After the predicable uproar - one resident jokingly wondered if that would include mandatory birth control and/or sterilization - the homeowners association assured residents there is no plan to ban children and no reason to take this seriously.
Except, well, it is San Francisco.

(HOUSTON) – After a three-day trial, a federal jury has convicted Adnan Mirza, 33, of all nine counts in an indictment arising from his efforts to provide support and funds to the Taliban, United States Attorney José Angel Moreno announced today. Mirza, a citizen of Pakistan, had entered the United States on a student visa and was attending a local community college in 2005 and 2006 when he committed the offenses for which he was convicted.
The jury returned its verdicts this evening, finding Mirza guilty of conspiracy to unlawfully possess firearms, conspiracy to provide funds to the Taliban and all seven counts of unlawful possession by an alien of firearms and ammunition. United States District Judge Ewing Werlein, who presided over the trial, has set sentencing for Sept. 10, 2010. Mirza faces a maximum of five years imprisonment for each of the two conspiracy convictions as well as fines of up to $250,000. Each of the five unlawful possession of firearms or ammunition by an alien carries a maximum fine of $250,000 and a term of confinement of not more than 10 years. Mirza has been in federal custody without bond since his arrest and will remain in custody pending his sentencing hearing.
During the trial, the United States presented evidence that proved Mirza, a foreign national who had entered the United States on a student visa, is not permitted by federal law to possess firearms while in the United States. Through an FBI undercover investigation, the evidence also proved Mirza and others engaged in weekend camping/training and practice sessions with firearms on six different occasions beginning in May 2006 at a location on the north side of Houston to prepare for Jihad. Evidence also proved Mirza and the others intended to send funds to the Taliban.
The investigation leading to the charges against Mirza and others was conducted by the Houston office of the FBI with the assistance of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Deputy Criminal Chief Glenn Cook and Assistant U.S. Attorney James McAlister prosecuted the case for the United States

Seriously. The greatest brain in modern physics dedicated a lot of time in trying to create a long lasting, energy efficient, environmentally friendly refrigerator.AdvertisementEinstein took interest in building a better fridge as more people swapped their ice boxes for refrigerators. The problem was that fridges in those days could leak poisonous fumes such as methyl chloride, sulfor dioxide etc and kill people. Einstein wanted to avoid that and create a safer fridge.Mental Floss explains that traditional fridges required a consistent seal to trap the toxic gases that cool the fridge. But the seal in refrigerators eventually wore out because of all the moving parts which could cause a dangerous situation. Einstein, and his buddy genius physicist Léo Szilàrd, wanted to do away with the moving parts. Mental Floss writes:AdvertisementOver the course of their partnership, the two scientists took out 45 patents for refrigeration technology in six countries, eventually selling their key patents to appliance manufacturer AB Electro Lux.Their fridge never ended up coming to market (as they were less efficient) but researchers at Oxford University have taken an interest to Einstein's idea of cooling—it only using pressurized gasses to cool and no moving parts. Einstein took advantage of the concept "that liquids boil at lower temperatures when the air pressure around them is lower." No freon, no greenhouse gasses needed. Maybe eventually we'll be cooling things because of Einstein. [Mental Floss]

At least 24,495 people have been killed in violence in Syria since the outbreak of an anti-regime revolt in March last year turned into a bloody conflict, a Britain-based watchdog said.
"A total of 17,281 civilians have been killed in Syria in the past 17 months, including those who took up arms to join the rebellion," said Rami Abdel Rahman, director of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
"Meanwhile, 6,163 soldiers have been killed, as well as 1,051 defectors who joined the insurgency," Abdel Rahman added.
It is impossible to independently verify death tolls out of Syria.
The Observatory has a network of monitors on the ground, and keeps records of the names of those killed in the violence.

This document incorporates policies and procedures established by the University Trustees, campus administration, and those set forth in the negotiated collective bargaining agreement between the University and the Graduate Employee Organization (GEO). These supersede previous procedures and guidelines as well as previous policies on these matters. Specific questions should be addressed to the Assistantship Office, 517 Goodell Building.
General Conditions for Employment for Graduate Assistants Stipend
Tuition Credit Scholarships
A Teaching Assistant (TA) has one or more of the following responsibilities in courses for which he or she does not have primary responsibility:
(1) coordinate, lead, or assist in the instructional process in preparation and direct interaction with students in lab, discussion, quiz, or problem sessions; (2) meet with students and teach during office hours; (3) grade papers; (4) grade and proctor exams; (5) supervise undergraduate interns; (6) counsel students; (7) administer colloquium programs. A TA may have additional, related duties as assigned.
In addition to positions in academic departments and the Division of Continuing Education, Teaching Assistants (and Teaching Associates) may be hired for instructional programming approved for and funded by non-academic departments. An example is the 3-credit Peer Sex Education course, designed and offered by the University Health Services and credited to the Public Health Department. Under no circumstance may a Teaching Assistant's responsibilities include duties that are unrelated to instructional effort, e.g., clerical, administrative, or even research type activities. A non-academic department must first have met institutional review requirements for an instructional program before it can appoint Teaching Assistants.
A Teaching Associate (TO) is responsible for the teaching and grading of a course. Teaching Associate positions, like the TA, can be paid from any funding source.
A Research Assistant (RA) assists in conducting research of a scholarly nature, normally under faculty supervision. The work of a Research Assistant can include, but is not limited to, the gathering and analyses of data, the development of theoretical analyses and models, the production or publication of scholarly journals and research reports which is primarily for his or her own research, and is secondarily for the benefit of the University, faculty or academic staff supervisor, or granting agency.
A Project Assistant (PA) is similar to a Research Assistant, but a PA is a graduate student who performs work primarily for the benefit of the University, faculty or academic staff supervisor, and secondarily for the graduate student's own research. Similar to an RA, a PA must do work related to academic research.
An Internship is an on-campus assistantship that is awarded to students who are gaining practical experience that directly augments their classroom studies. In some departments, Internships are required for graduation. Internships must be specifically designed to support and enrich a student's academic experience. Interns cannot fill regular staff positions or substitute for consulting services. Examples of acceptable Internships include:
An award made to assist a student in the pursuit of his/her studies or research, usually with no requirement for service or performance.
An award made to assist a student in the pursuit of his/her studies or research, sometimes with and sometimes without the requirement of service or performance, but usually limited to a specific discipline by the granting agency.
A graduate student employed by Housing and who is required, as a condition of employment as an ARD to reside in University-assigned housing. The job duties and responsibilities of the ARD can be obtained from Housing Services, Berkshire House.
Graduate Assistantships and Associateships are required to carry a stipend at a rate that is no less than the established minimum set for the campus. This amount may vary from year to year, depending on budgetary and contract considerations. The current (Fall 16) minimum stipend necessary to qualify for tuition credit is $4,793.70 for a single semester and $9,587.40 for the full academic year. For a complete list of these rates please see the 2016-2017 Assistantship Information sheet. Minimum earnings needed for a tuition credit in a given semester may be met by combining any number of eligible appointments - see below "Minimum Earnings." Stipends are paid in bi-weekly installments over the length of the appointment.
Most commonly, graduate assistants and associates (GA's) are appointed from September through May. GA's may also be appointed for as long as 12 months from June through May or for periods of less than a semester with the exception of TAs and TOs. A GA may be re-appointed and serve for a second, a third, or even a fourth year. All graduate appointments shall automatically terminate at the end of the specified appointment period. No appointment or reappointment of a graduate student to an assistantship or associateship position commits the University to reappoint that same student at some later time.
To insure the timely receipt of the first bi-weekly paycheck, appointments of GA's should be made, and the completed fully signed appointment forms received by the Graduate School, at least 1week before the appointment is scheduled to begin. Retroactive appointments are not generally permitted and no graduate student employee should begin work until he or she has signed their Graduate Fellowship Assistantship Form (GFAF).
There are two policies governing the number of hours per week that a student may work on campus. The Human Resources and state regulations impose a maximum of 40 hours per week that a student may work for compensation on the campus. This includes the total from all job types: Assistantships, student hourly, Work-Study, etc. The second policy requires institutional responsibility to limit the pressure on students who hold multiple appointments and maintain a significant credit load. The student's academic progress and the quality of their classroom lecture delivery are both jeopardized under overload conditions. The Graduate School, therefore, also includes the course credit hours in the total permissible workload of 40 hours. A student, who, with the addition of credit hours, slightly exceeds the 40-hour maximum, can have the limit lifted with a letter from the Graduate Program Director or Department Head attesting to the student's capacity to handle the overload. Thesis and dissertation credits are not included in the total. Note that International students with F1 and J1 Visas may not work more than 20 hours per week while classes are in session. These students may work up to 40 hours in a week during Intersession and the through the summer.
It is the responsibility of each academic department to determine that each graduate student who is employed in a GEO bargaining unit position with instructional responsibilities has appropriate oral proficiency in English. Instructional responsibilities extend to both classroom and laboratory settings. GAs shall be deemed to have the appropriate oral proficiency in English by meeting one of the following criteria:
GAs with instructional responsibilities and who have not met one (1) of the above criteria are required to take the SPEAK test upon arrival on campus.
The SPEAK test is administered by the Graduate School at no cost to graduate students. It is given three (3) times a year: Fall, Spring, and Summer.
Graduate student employees who are required to take the SPEAK test and who do not pass the test are required to either participate in the Communication Instruction classes offered by the Graduate School (at no cost to the student) or enroll in another program recommended by their Graduate Program Director. If the assistantship with instructional responsibilities has already begun, the test result will have no bearing on the funding for the duration of that appointment. However, graduate student employees may be reassigned responsibilities corresponding to their level of proficiency. Reappointment to an instructional position will not be made unless the SPEAK test has been passed.
International students should be advised that, because they will not be eligible to teach in the summer or winter session in Continuing and Professional Education until they have passed the SPEAK test, they should complete all testing requirements immediately after arrival on campus.
Any time a graduate student employee spends in training required by his or her department before the semester begins, whether provided by the department or the University, shall be counted towards the total number of contracted hours for the employee for the subsequent contract period.
In addition to regular academic year appointments, graduate students, who have begun their academic course of study, may be appointed to assistantships in the summer. The rate of pay must meet the same minimum requirement established for the academic year and prorated for the length of the summer appointment.
A full or part-time Graduate Assistant or Associate may receive additional compensation from University sources in the form of other assistantships, student hourly, or fellowships as long as the hours worked are within the limits described under "Workload" above.
Non-degree students may NOT receive tuition credit under Board of Higher Education regulations. A non-degree student may be appointed to an assistantship only if the funding department is also willing to pay the student's tuition. Graduate assistants may not pay their own tuition.
Graduate student employees in the GEO bargaining unit shall receive the following vacation, additional time off, and holiday benefits:
Vacation = 1 day per month (pro rated if less or more than 1 FTE) Example: For a 20 hour per week appointment, vacation time equals 4 hours per month. You can use the multiplier .0473 times the total number of hours to determine Vacation time. TAs and TOs must take vacation time during Winter break or Spring break unless agreement is reached with department head that an alternative schedule would be acceptable. RA's and other graduate student employees may take vacation at any time, provided they obtain prior written approval for the supervisor. Vacation leave cannot be carried over beyond the contract period in which is earned.
Additional Time = 24 hrs. per semester for a FTE (fulltime) position or 17 hrs per 14-week summer session. For the academic year use the multiplier 0.63 times the total number of hours to determine Additional time during the semester. Example: For a 20 hr per week appointment, Additional Time equals: 20 hrs x 19 wk. X .063 = 24 hours/semester. For the summer session, use the multiplier .061 times the total number of hours to determine Additional Time during the summer. Example: 20 hr per week appointment during the summer, Additional Time equals: 20 hrs x 14 wk x .061 =17 hours/summer. Additional Time cannot be carried over beyond the academic year or summer session in which it is earned.
Holidays: TAs and TOs who normally work on a day when the University is closed due to a holiday shall not be required to work on that day and shall receive pay for that day. However, when class days are switched (e.g. Monday is on a Wednesday) workdays will be switched as well. RAs and other graduate student employees who are required by his/her supervisor to work on a University holiday shall receive compensatory time off unless such requirement is part of the graduate student employee's job description. The following days are considered holidays:
When University employees are released from work due to emergency conditions, graduate student employees shall also be released - this includes snow or other weather related emergencies.
Graduate tuition credit scholarships are given for different reasons, and fall into different categories accordingly. The various categories are discussed below in the order in which they are treated in Trustee Document T79-093B.
A Tuition credit scholarship is granted to all students who have achieved a level of academic excellence established by departments and recognized by the awarding of a half-time or greater Graduate Assistantship, Associateship, Fellowship or Traineeship with a current (AY 16-17) minimum earnings of $4,793.70 for a single semester.
Eligible Appointment Types: A Graduate Assistantship or Associateship may take the form either of a Teaching Assistantship or Associateship, Research Assistantship, Project Assistantship, Assistant Resident Director, working or non-working Traineeship, working or non-working Fellowship or Intern Assistantship which serves as a learning experience directly associated with the student's academic discipline. Examples of these functions are given under "Types of Graduate Assistantships."
Sources of Funding: Graduate assistantships may be funded by extramural sources such as grants or contracts, from revenue based Trust Funds, or from State Funds.
Inappropriate Job Duties: Graduate students who perform "service" functions for remuneration must be hired on an hourly basis and do NOT receive tuition credit or health fee deferments. Examples of "service" functions are clerical duties or other work that does not professionally enhance and provide educational value towards the student's academic goals. On the other hand, graduate students with professional job duties must be hired on Graduate Assistantship Appointments. Student hourly appointments are processed on the Graduate Student Personnel Action forms through the Graduate Assistantship Office.
Active Status: Only students with "active" graduate status, including Continous Enrollment (Program Fee) and Provisional Status may qualify for tuition credit for assistantships. Undergraduates, post baccalaureate students, non-degree students as well as students enrolled through Continuing Education are NOT eligible for tuition credit in this category.
Minimum Earnings: Tuition credit scholarships for assistantships are granted only to Assistants and Associates who receive a stipend equal to at least half the current minimum full-time (FTE) Assistantship stipend. For Academic Year 16-17, the minimum earnings necessary for a tuition credit scholarship to cover both the fall 16 and spring 17 semesters is $9,587.40. This amount may be paid either over the two semesters or all in one semester. In practice, therefore, a stipend of $4,793.70 for one semester will suffice for that semester; a stipend of $9,587.40 for one semester (either fall or spring) will qualify for a tuition credit for BOTH fall and spring of this academic year. Tuition credit can neither be applied retroactively to a previous academic year nor carried over to a subsequent academic year.
Summer Session : Tuition credit for summer session enrollment of thesis or dissertation credits are also granted to Graduate Assistants and Associates who earn at least (for AY 16-17) $3,413.20 during the summer in which the student is enrolled for thesis or dissertation credits. Or alternatively, if this summer qualifying amount ($3,413.20 for AY 16-17) is earned above and beyond the amount necessary for qualifying for a tuition credit in one or both of the preceding academic semesters, then credit of tuition for summer session enrollment of thesis or dissertation credits will be granted.
Tuition credit for fellowship and traineeship recipients, who are not required to work, are not automatic and will be given only when the fellowship or traineeship terms do not include provisions to pay the tuition . The original award letter must be submitted to the Assistantship Office for determination of tuition credit applicability.
See Externship Policy and Procedures
The majority of graduate students entitled to tution credit in this category are international students who are enrolled under reciprocal student exchanges, sponsored by recognized agencies, or other contractual agreements.
Only eligible graduate student employees in the GEO bargaining unit are provided with health fee exemptions for Basic Health, Student Health Benefit Plan (SHBP), and the Student Family Health Plan. All three health plans are administered over two plan periods: fall, which runs from August 1 through January 31 and spring, which runs February 1 through July 31. For the academic year 2016-2017, the minimum earnings necessary for health fee exemptions that cover the 12-month health plan period, August 1 through July 31, is $9,587.40. However, if a student earns a stipend of half that amount ($4,793.70), he or she will receive a full plan year of the SHBP fee exemption and a single plan period of the Basic (and Family, if elected) fee exemption. The semester in which the earnings take place will determine the plan period in which the Basic (and Family) fee exemption(s) take place. Earnings to qualify for health fee exemptions are cumulative beginning with the first payroll date of summer and ending with the last payroll date of the spring semester. Summer earnings must always be applied forward.
It is the responsibility of principal investigators of fellowship and training grants to provide the Graduate Assistantship Office with verification and description of duties of appointed students for consideration of Health Benefit eligibility. Without such verification, the Graduate Assistantship Office will assume that the fellowship or traineeship does not require work, and the student appointee will be coded "not eligible" for the Health Benefit.

text: I was on my way to an interview but I knew I'd have time to burn, so I put on my suit, hooked up my Olympus Trip to my holster (inspired by this www.lomography.com/magazine/tipster/2009/12/24/the-lomo-lc-…) and jumped on my Daytona. The holster was perfect. Every time I stopped at some traffic lights I just grabbed my camera and clicked away.

BLM's Little Snake Field Office to be closed
The Bureau of Land Management Little Snake Field Office will be closed for business as staff move into the new BLM building Friday. Telephone service, as well as the availability of staff, will be interrupted for the move, though the Craig Interagency Dispatch Center will remain operational.

Wren is the spokesperson for an organization that funds medical assistance for impoverished nations the world over. They meet in Liberia, where Wren is immediately impressed with Miguel's selflessness, medical skill, and strapping physique.

After Snow escapes the castle, the Queen sends the Huntsman to find her in the Dark Forest.
A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind and water. It is cold enough to crack stones, and, when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the warmer south, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there.
According to IMDB: "The past and the present have a curious way of effecting one another as several people seperated by time and space are about to discover — Mariana, a 16-year-old girl trying to put together the shattered lives of her parents in a Mexican border town; Sylvia, a woman in Portland who must undertake an emotional odyssey to burnish a sin from her past; Gina and Nick, a couple who must deal with an intense and clandestine affair; and Maria, a young girl who helps her parents find redemption, forgiveness and love.

Libby Day was only seven years old when her mother and two sisters were brutally murdered in their rural Kansas farmhouse. In court, the traumatized child pointed the finger at her brother, Ben, and her testimony put the troubled 16-year-old in prison for life. Twenty-five years later, a broke and desperate Libby has run through donations from a sympathetic public and royalties from her sensational autobiography, without ever moving past the events of that night.
When Libby accepts a fee to appear at a gathering of true-crime aficionados led by Lyle Wirth, she is shocked to learn most of them believe Ben is innocent and the real killer is still at large. In need of money, she reluctantly agrees to help them reexamine the crime by revisiting the worst moments of her life. But as Libby and Lyle dig deeper into the circumstances surrounding the murders, her recollections start to unravel and she is forced to question exactly what she saw—or didn't see. As long-buried memories resurface, Libby begins to confront the wrenching truths that led up to that horrific night.
Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max believes the best way to survive is to wander alone.

Enraged, the Warlord marshals all his gangs and pursues the rebels ruthlessly in the high-octane Road War that follows. [Synopsis courtesy of Cannes Film Festival]

Do you want to make Ohio.com your homepage?
XFirst, a note: I try to be fairly relaxed about comments on the posts since you guys are entitled to your say but I have deleted a couple lately for being way too inappopriate -- not in the opinion but in the way it was expressed. And I will do so whenever I think a line has been crossed. So let's try to have a basically civil discussion, OK?
Last night, as I mentioned, I went to see "The Reader" (which struck me as the weakest of the five best-picture nominees, although the acting is good) so I got home when "Idol" had about half an hour to go. Saw enough to think that Randy is clearly The Most Superfluous Judge right now, that Danny Gokey was OK but obviously got higher praise from all the judges but Simon because he (a) closed the show and "Idol" always tries to end on a high and (b) it was evident from the highlights that much of what preceded him had not been all that good, and that the song choices were in many cases really uninspired. Paula may think a song is impressive if it has been done a zillion times on the show, but if the new performance doesn't stand out, then a redo does not really benefit the singer.
After the jump, I have contestant-by-contestant notes for the entire show from a speed view, mainly performances, as little judgery as possible, no Ryan chat, for your amusement or edification. And off we go:
Jackie Tohn, "A Little Less Conversation." Interesting approach, I suppose, but not all that convincing. She's gone soulful more than rock on the Elvis tune, and the soul mannerisms seem contrived. Also, she doesn't have the voice to make it work. (Memo to Jackie: Great soul singers also had melody. See Otis Redding, Al Green, Miss Aretha Franklin, et al.) C minus/D plus.
Ricky Braddy, "A Song for You." I love this damn song. I love Leon's version. I love Donny Hathaway's. There's a monster rendition by Aretha. Mr. Braddy, whom I don't remember seeing much at all during the earlier rounds, pulls at it like a big ole piece of adult-contemporary taffy, high note here, wistful look there, but he's out of his depth. C.
Alexis Grace, "I Never Loved a Man The Way I Love You." More soul posturing, and her vocal for the first half is terrible. The backup vocalists are really saving her in key spots. Whenever she has a big solo stretch, you can hear how limited her range is. (Alexis, check my memo to Jackie, above, OK?) Not quite as awful as Jackie overall because Alexis has better stage presence. Yeah, that's it, stage presence. Sounds much better than she sells herself quite effectively as a naughty girl. But the vocal wasn't good. C minus.
Brent Keith, "Hick Town." Staking out the country territory for himself, not the worst idea considering how many people have gone R&B already, and country has been very hospital to "Idol" also-rans. Better vocal than either Alexis or Jackie, but as much as he's trying to be high-energy, the arrangement plods. C.
Stevie Wright, "You Belong With Me." Taylor Swift, eh? But gosh, terrible terrible start and it doesn't get any better. She is all wrong for this song, and besides a smile her stage presence is nonexistent. Now the vocal is getting worse. And as much trouble as I had with the previous performances, this may be the worst so far. D.
Anoop Desai, "Angel of Mine." My guy through the previous rounds, and he starts off solidly. But wobbly in places, especially as he tries to make it big, and he completely loses his grip on the notes near the finish. I'd keep him around just because I think he has potential, but this wasn't the performance I expected from him. C.
Casey Carlson, "Every Little Things She Does Is Magic." Not sure about the Ronettes hair. This is a tricky song, and while she nails the opening she falls apart quickly and drops back into a very narrow range, and can't even manage that. I keep grabbing the remote, wanting to skip to the end, and I don't think she has any sense of the song emotionally; there's more there than "fun." C minus/D plus.
Michael Sarver, "I Don't Want to Be." I like the guy's voice all right, but the arrangement seems to be killing him -- getting buried by guitar a lot. And I am tired of the song. But, I don't know, C plus?
Ann Marie Boskovich, "A Natural Woman." Second Aretha song of the night, and a warhorse in singing competitions. You've got to do something to make this stand out. She doesn't. Maybe the dress was squeezing the life out of her. Gets worse as she goes. C minus.
Beachwood's Stephen Fowler, "Rock With You." Thought it was a disaster when I heard it last night, and it's still a disaster this morning. Completely unsuited to this song. Even the backup singers sound off in places. Not the worst performance of the night, but it's close. D plus, and that's on the curve based on tonight's performances.
Tatiana del Toro, "Saving All My Love For You." Based on personality, I'd like to just give her an F and send her on her way. But she has a voice that's good in spots, and somewhat powerful. She also has no idea what to do with it at times. Still, in comparison of vocal skills, she's far from the worst tonight, especially among the women. Shrieks, though. And I hate her personality, and that stuff I heard last night about her wanting to market herself may have been honest but it was hardly endearing. C minus/C, and again that's on the curve.
Danny Gokey to close. "Hero." Please, please, please, any song but this. Anything. This is such blatant audience bait, and so overdone, that I can't stand to hear it another time. Not to mention that Paula's on her feet for most of the song. While his performance is competent enough to be the best of what's been a staggeringly bad night, it's still nothing extraordinary. B minus, and it might have been higher with a different song Not that there was anything tonight I would get from it.
So where are we? Nothing iTunes-worthy. Nothing, really, I'd want to hear again anywhere. As for picking, the rules say I have to pick one woman, one guy and one more of either gender, which really bites. But I take Danny as one guy and Anoop as the other, even though Sarver was better than Anoop; I'm giving my guy a pass based on my liking his previous work. (I know, we're not supposed to do that. And it happens all the time.) Among the women, my grades say Tatiana passes on, which kills me, but the women were mostly terrible; if I dropped Tatiana, I might take Alexis or Ann Marie, but I don't really care.
We'll see how the results show goes tonight.

The Horse Forum
- Horse Health
- - Update on Joe
Update on Joe 1 Attachment(s) Joe, the rescue, has been on his Glucosamine injections (one a week) for 2 weeks. He is not taking any other joint supplement at this time. We can tell a difference about 2 days after his injection and it lasts for 2-3 days. He has actually kicked up a bit playing with Hootie and does a LITTLE trotting. I believe we need to add an additional supplement that includes MSM, HA, etc. but finding one I can afford AND that actually works along with the injections is going to be the key. This guy is amazing. He has the kindest heart and it kills me to know what he's been though. You can see in the picture with my girls that he loves attention and he sure gets a lot of it. I hope we can gain him more relief with the addition of some added supplements and a bit more shoe work. I also think that if I can get a chiropractor out here he could gain some relief. He holds that leg up so much I'm sure his hocks bother him. We'll see. |
That's great! Consider adding an oral glucosamine and chondroitin supplement along with the injections. |
he is cute!!! |
Thanks! Of course, he could have looked like the "HunchHorse from Notre Dame" and we wouldn't have cared! He was getting the hell out of that situation. LOL But, we had a bonus because this is the type of horse you walk up to and actually FEEL how kind he is. He radiates an energy that draws you in. Something I can't well explain, I guess. Even as much as he's been through, he allowed us tonight with nothing but me holding his halter to remove 6 stitches less than an inch from his eye. He shouldn't have trusted us from the things he's been through but he did. |
very sweet. try smartpackequine.com they give you a cost to quantity of ingredients comparison for every class of supplements. i check out all their comparison charts, but usually shop around for better prices, but thier shipping is only 7.95 for anything. |
Can he get too much glucosamine? If I add the SmartFlex Repair supplement (or most other joint combo supplement) it comes with glucosamine in it AND he takes 10 ml once a week IM too. Can he have too much or will it just flush out? |
im not sure that there is a proven maximum amount of glucosamine a horse can absorbe. i mean, i dont think anyone really knows how much is too much. its a relatively new kind of supplement. just about every joint product has a base of glucosamine. have you talked to the vet about it? |
Vet Yes, and he would like him on another all around supplement and not just the Gluc IM BUT I have not spoken with him on which supplement we would like to try. The one he mentioned was $100 a month but we just can't afford that. I'll probably give him a call tomorrow and ask him if it's ok to add this SmartFlex Repair. It sounds like a great product and it sells for $59 for pellet form. That's 28 doses. Not TOO bad. :? If he gives me the thumbs up, I think we'll give it a month or two on it and see if he improves even more. |
my mare gets a plain glucosamine sulfate 4000mg a day, for about $30 a month. to me $58 is a little expensive, soo is 100. but i guess it depends on maintenance vs repair. |
The AAEP did a study and found that the rate of Glucosamine supplementation that actually showed improvement in lameness was 10,000g per day so you need to get him on a daily supplement that has high levels. |
