Learn how to squeeze a little more speed out of yourself by making the most of your training.
We all want to get faster. And we're all busy too. The most obvious and commonly pursued way to improve race times is to run more. But running more is seldom an option with a daily schedule as hectic and draining as the average working runner's is today.
RELATED — Coach Culpepper: Get Fast First
Fortunately, running more is not the only way to run faster. In fact, often it's not even the best way. There are many things the average runner can do to squeeze additional performance out of the time he or she is already devoting to training. It only makes sense to do these things and get the most out of every second of training time before you even think about running more.
Here are the top seven ways to get faster without running more.

Newring won the 400 meter dash with a personal record time of 48.94 seconds after finishing first in the preliminary competition. His next closest competitor was .70 seconds behind. The time earned Newring an NCAA provisional qualifying spot, over .80 seconds faster than the time he needed to achieve the mark. Newring also finished second in the 200 meter dash, an event for which he had already posted an NCAA provisional qualifying time.
Brent Swiney finished fifth in the 3000 meter run, less than ten seconds off the pace set by Mark Cole from UT-Chattanooga. His time of 8:48.01 was a personal record. Jeremy Stamper turned in a top-ten performance as well, coming in ninth in the shot put with a 13.72 meter throw.
The Tornado also had a strong showing in the long jump event, with Traviunta Trammell finishing eighth with a distance of 6.69 meters. Trammel was just .05 meters ahead of teammate Eric Jones, who finished tied for tenth and came within .01 meters of a new personal record.
The team will next compete on Friday and Saturday at the Hokie Invitational in Blacksburg, Va.

Through September 24, the Rachel Marie will tug ten trees, a few bushes, some rocks and a path around New York. The miniature version of Manhattan is the posthumous work of the artist Robert Smithson.
Just like any other barge, only this one has bark and leaves
By Nicole Davis
Bob Henry has tugged a few odd things in his time: an inflatable rubber doll promoting a Stevie Van Zandt concert on Randalls Island; fuel rods from a decommissioned nuclear power plant. But Robert Smithsons Floating Island is by far the most beautiful barge of the tugboat captains career.
Its a very small version of Central Park, he said of the floating work of art currently circling around Manhattan. Hes not kidding. Inside the 30 x 90 foot plot of land are schist rocks borrowed from Central Park, the very ones that form the bedrock of Manhattan, and the kind the late Robert Smithson would have probably wanted on his moving earthwork. Conceived in 1970, Floating Island to Travel Around Manhattan Island was finally realized in time for the current retrospective of Smithsons work at the Whitney Museum, and will wend its way around the city from 8 AM to 8 PM until Sunday the 24th.
For the tugboat captain, its just another load, not unlike the lumber he tugs to maritime construction firms, only this one has leaves and bark. To other observers unfamiliar with Smithsons work, like security guard Yvenson Saintil, who works the Coast Guard parking lot near Battery Park, it doesnt even resemble a living thing.
I thought it was trash, Saintil said.
If only Smithson were around to explain its intent. The artist died in a plane crash at the age of 35, but before his untimely death he helped pioneer a brave new field of artone that used the field as its canvas. Works like Michael Heizers Double Negative, a spectacular hole dug out of a Nevada mesa, and Smithsons Spiral Jetty, a coil of basalt rocks assembled in Utahs Great Salt Lake, manhandled nature in such a way that the art itself became a physical place. That these earthworks didnt stay put was just as significant to Smithson, who was fixated on the notion of entropy and the impermanence of things.
Its possible that the muse for Smithsons massive undertakings was the landscape architect behind Central Park. In an essay Smithson wrote five months before the 1973 plane crash, he calls Frederick Law Olmstead the worlds first true earth artist. A hundred years before works like Spiral Jetty created something unique and interactive from static landscapes, Olmstead eschewed the vision of Central Park as a fixed, formal garden and made it a place where people, nature, even traffic could coexist. Smithson praised Olmstead for reclaiming land jeopardized by urban growth, and turning it into a thing of beauty.
My own experience, wrote Smithson, is that the best sites for earth art are sites that have been disrupted by industry, reckless urbanization, or natures own devastation.
The earthworks artist lived very close to one such tableau. He and his widow, artist Nancy Holt, used to take walks along the Hudson River when they lived together in New York, and Holt says those strolls got Smithson thinking about his maritime opus. Curators of the exhibit and those who manage his estate believe the idea falls in line with his penchant for displacement.
Smithson had displaced nature once before by bringing it inside the white walls of a gallery, so it stands to reason this was his way of displacing nature yet again, only instead of taking the flora inside, he plucked them from their normal domain, attached it to a symbol of industry of New Yorks working harbor, and set in orbit around the city.
Smithson made one detailed sketch of this vision, but he hit a wall when it came to financing and finding permits for the project.
New York was a different world then, Holt said on September 16, the day the island made its debut at the Hudson River Parks Pier 46. Think about the Gatesit took 20 years for that to happen.
Smithsons island took 30 years, and about two million less to create. A year before his current retrospective went up at the Whitney, curator Chrissy Isles tapped a woman familiar with creating ambitious, large-scale projects, Diane Shamash of the Minetta Brook arts organization, to help her pick up where Smithson left off. Together they began walking the waterfront too, envisioning the logistics of tugging a 150-ton island around the city. They met with tugboat captains, even watched a dozen tugs race in the Tugboat Challenge off Staten Island.
Its really quite a community, said Shamash, a petite woman who keeps her short, chestnut hair cinched in a ponytail.
Ultimately, Shamash amassed a team of 20 to help translate the sketch Smithson left of his fantasy island. (Aside from a notes specifying a willow tree, the other plants were left open to interpretation so long as they were native to New York.) Jon Rubin, a filmmaker and performance artist who screens movies on a barge called Floating Cinema, was the most experienced person to handle the logistics of hiring the tugboat operator.
This was my first time acting as a project manager, said Rubin, who helped oversee the four-month, $200,000 construction of the island. Im not sure if Ill ever do something like this again. But Im proud of how it turned out.
He continued managing from behind the scenes last Friday, before the tug made its inaugural run around Manhattan on Saturday the 17th. As Holt, Shamash, and various others made their introductory remarks about the projects genesis and completion, Rubin paced in the back of the crowd, speaking in hushed tones to Bob Henry via cell phone.
Can you pull it back so that its centered? he asked the tugboat captain, as the island began to drift during Holts remarks. Smithsons widow, a white-haired woman who now lives in New Mexico, was reminiscing about the time she and Smithson spent in the city.
Bob and I used to live on West 12th and Greenwich Street, not far from here, she said wistfully. I used to look out the window
to where were standing, where this island is now floating.
Behind her, the wind and currents made the island bob and drift like a bad puppy on a leash, said Henry. Smithson, who appreciated natures tendency toward disorder, would have been pleased at how his art was behaving.

Scientific Theory
29-08-2010, 10:03 PM (This post was last modified: 29-08-2010 10:10 PM by Ghost.)
RE: Scientific Theory
Hey, Omega21.
I wasn't offended. But thanks for the apology. That was really cool.
I don't believe in any gods. I just think the possibility exists but there's no way to tell. The texts are secondary to me. But many cultures claim that the divine exists. I have no reason to say, "no it doesn't."
I believe in socially constructed reality. A socially constructed reality only needs one thing to be viable. Internal consistency. So these texts make sense within their native reality. They don't need to make any sense in a different socially constructed reality and in fact, if they are in conflict with ideas in another reality, they'll simply be rejected. But for me what is of interest is that most of the cultures that have existed to this point have had some link to the divine included in their construct (any Atheistic cultures excluded). So it's not some fly by night claim but a deeply embedded, near universal part of how most humans view the world. Does that make it true? Not at all. That being said, the possibility that gods can exist is something, to me at least, that exists outside of any given text or religion. But I can neither verify nor disprove that idea. For me, the only answer possible is maybe, but we'll never know for sure.
To me it seems pretty straight forward, but the idea that one can not believe in any particular gods and not believe gods don't exist at the same time seems to be controversial. But I experience zero cognitive dissonance on the matter.
Good luck with your homework!
Hey, puncheex.
Damn, dude. That was awesome.
I assume the abstraction process is where many people apply Occam's Razor, n'est ce pas?

RE: Scientific Theory
Ghost Wrote:Hey, puncheex.
Well, certainly some razor gets applied.
Occam's Razor is a friendly warning against making things overly complicated, so yes, it certainly has applicability in that process. It is usually applied when two possible theories explain the same phenomenon, but always remember that it is a guideline; applying it to, say, quantum anything might result in slicing a jugular.

I think I may have an answer for you regarding this.
Humans have evolved to deal with the things that they can see/feel. This includes evolving a brain that is equipped to deal with things that are human-sized. Why? Because our brains can only have so many connections; if we had more, our heads would need to be bigger, which would result in complications giving birth (but I'm digressing). Throughout our evolution, humans have only needed to deal with things that immediately affect them in order to survive. Thus, numbers like 4.6 billion are extremely hard for us to imagine, because that number is not likely to occur within a human lifetime. That is why there are many creationist who easily deny that the Earth is that old. However, we can imagine the size of bacteria, because we can now look into a microscope and actually see them. How many religious people deny the existence of bacteria? (I will also add that bacteria were, and still are, a vital part of human survival, and thus, I believe, that is the reason we so readily accept the truth of their existence, even as young children.)
Sorry for the long prelude, but before technology, math, and science were developed enough to let humans learn that natural disasters are actually natural, or that we didn't need a creator in order to be here, humans had no other explanations. So, they chose something that is very real and immediate (a human in some cases, animals in other cases), and created a god, or gods, in that image. From the perspective of a human without technology, someone (or something) very big and powerful must have shook the [flat] earth that they stood on whenever there was an earthquake, or made the tides move in and out. However, thanks to the discovery of gravity, we now know that the moon moves the tides. It is only now that we are no longer ignorant of these things that so many humans can put aside deism.
That being said, I still find it hard to imagine just how old the Earth is, or just how large the universe may be, but that is simply due to my meagre human brain
I am an atheist, but I do agree with you that humans, as of yet, cannot positively prove or dis-prove a creator. (In fact, according to Dawkins, only math can actually prove anything, but that's a whole other topic.) However, logic can be applied to the possibility of a creator. Questions such as, how would a creator come into existence in the first place? If there was no creator to create the creator, then the argument that life doesn't need a creator wins. I am not trying to argue with your position, however. I understand where you are coming from, because I was just there a couple of years ago. By the time that humans discover whether or not there is a creator, we'll both be long dead and the argument won't matter to us anymore
"Remember, my friend, that knowledge is stronger than memory, and we should not trust the weaker." - Dr. Van Helsing, Dracula
RE: Scientific Theory
Just because something cannot be disproved doesn't mean we should consider it as a potential possibility. Take christian god for example. There is no actual evidence that would support his existence; and there are a few logical problems with it as well. Without evidence, this idea has no basis in reality and is just as likely to be true as Flying Spaghetti Monster or Invisible Pink Unicorn, and those are of course absurd.
As long as something exists only in human imagination and with no evidence based on observation, it should be entirely ignored for any deliberations, until such evidence is provided.
Peace and Love and Empathy, but above them: Common Sense and Reason.
RE: Scientific Theory
Thank you. You answered his comments better, and more succinctly, then I could have.
First: seriously, dude, you need to work on some brevity. An occasional long post is one thing but it seems like you're constantly writing a treatise.
Second: Thoradin makes my basic point. Just because I can't disprove something beyond all doubt doesn't mean it is worthy of attention.
Third, I never meant to say relativism would lead to atrocity. What it leads to is apologies and apathy and when the atrocities come you've got too many people looking the other way or making excuses. Making excuses for terrorists, pedophiles, etc. These people are not condoning 9/11 or the child abuse scandal but they are giving a whole lot of "yes, but" remarks and give these vermin the appearance of credibility.
The problem with the Catholic Church wasn't just that Catholics were not outraged enough. The problem was that the rest of society was afraid of offending them and taking strong enough action. Too many people gave this criminal enterprise deference because it was a religious organization. I can't think of any other type of group in the world that would have gotten away with what the Church did. I can't think of people standing for it. But, we have too many people making apologies and excuses.
I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine.

So, a virus changing does not defeat their logic, but mammals evolving from the same organisms that spawned amphibians does defeat their argument, at least if you take the bible literally. I've seen theists who claim that God created all life over time and that evolution is his work. I suppose that could be true in the sense that that I can't prove it's not, but it really doesn't mesh up with the bible.
Theists, especially those from the major monotheistic religions, are completely immune to logic when it comes to such a discussion. There is NO LOGIC in a debate between creationists and believers ... religion proceeds from the premise that you must have faith to be a believer. Evidence is irrelevant to those who have faith, which is considered to be most powerful when it requires absolutely no evidence and when people obey without question whatever they're told by authority figures. Science categorically rejects faith and argument by authority (e.g., quotations from "holy" scripture). All science is based on evidence, not faith. This is the most fundamental distinction between science and religion. Science does NOT claim to know absolute truth, and no scientist can claim to be an authority figure whose words cannot be questioned.
RE: Scientific Theory
I have had countless conversations with theists (mostly of monotheistic backgrounds as 2buckchuck pointed out) and what I have found is that no matter how logical or applied they are in the real world be it at their job, at home, in public etc. They will totally detach their beliefs from all logic and truth. I have even had people tell me that even though they think something might be true, they won't admittedly believe it, even to themselves, because it contradicts scripture. This is something I may not ever get my head around. Science is simply the most thorough and powerful tool we humans have to learn about everything around us, and even though some people understand that, they won't admit it simply because it doesn't agree with their book. I continually look for an argument or premise that will act with any force upon these people, but it seems impossibly difficult to talk to someone who willingly detaches from the conversation so as not to possibly be swayed against divine word.
RE: Scientific Theory
(30-08-2010 01:56 PM)SecularStudent Wrote: I do agree with you that humans, as of yet, cannot positively prove or dis-prove a creator. (In fact, according to Dawkins, only math can actually prove anything, but that's a whole other topic.) However, logic can be applied to the possibility of a creator. Questions such as, how would a creator come into existence in the first place? If there was no creator to create the creator, then the argument that life doesn't need a creator wins.The burden of proof for the EXISTENCE of a putative creator is on the believers. It is impossible to "prove" by scientific logic the non-existence of a creator - if such a creator doesn't exist, then there can be no evidence of its existence. The non-existence of such evidence is not necessarily absolute proof of non-existence, however, which believers constantly exploit to challenge atheists to disprove that their deity exists. The logical fallacy they exploit is that it is impossible to prove the negation.
Believers accept the existence of a creator on faith, which is inadmissable to scientific logic. Dawkins is right ... "proof" in the sense that mathematics offers proof of theorems is not possible in science. The best science can offer is that the available evidence is consistent with some hypothesis - new evidence can surface later to refute the hypothesis and a new hypothesis can supplant an older one because it is better at explaining all the evidence. Science never offers absolute truth ... only provisional understanding. Scientific ideas are subject to challenge, which is how science makes real progress. But the fact is that scientific ideas can be used to solve problems and create new technologies ... unlike the "god did it" explanation, which is no explanation at all. In that, they are considerably more credible than theism.

My little sister asked me if I could make two lessons on the characters from the new Ice Age movie that is out in theaters. I never did them before so here it goes. Here is "how to draw Diego from Ice Age", step by step. In the very first film Diego was the villain. It was his main goal to befriend Manny and Sid to kidnap the toddler baby that belonged to a tribe that was recently attacked by Diego's clan. As you can tell Diego is a Sabertooth cat, and he is or was voiced by Dennis Leary. Despite being the villian in the first movie, he later became a family when he joined Sid and Manny in the quest for survival. They are his good or best friends now, and he would do absolutely anything for them. I like Diego's personality because even though he hangs with Sid and Manny, he still gives them attitude and sass. I didn't expect to enjoy drawing Diego, but as I sat there drawing him out, it brought me back to the days when I used to be a fan of the movie too. I still can't believe that it's been so long since the very first Ice Age film came out. I was so excited when I first seen it, I must of tried to draw the Ice Age characters for weeks before I gave up and went back to fantasy drawing. Anyways, this is a fun lesson to tackle especially if you are a fan of the Ice Age saga. I have to glide out of here for now, but my presence will return momentarily. Adios, and peace out people!

The children of Weehawken's Theodore Roosevelt School are a generous bunch. Last month, they participated in two simultaneous projects to benefit the less fortunate: Collecting towels for animals at a local shelter, and donating toys to kids in Haiti.
Spearheaded by the fifth and sixth grade Peer Leadership team – a group of students with an interest in community service – the towel drive was a resounding success, benefiting rescued and abandoned animals under the care of the Bergen County Protect & Rescue Foundation, a nonprofit organization serving Bergen and Hudson counties.
Organized by teacher Jill Barbarise, who oversees the peer leaders, the project was conceived when she adopted a dog from the shelter. "When she went to go get her dog, she said the dogs had no towels," said student Deanna Mezzina. "So she told the Peer Leadership we can bring towels in to help the dogs."
"What we're doing is we're asking each class to at least donate a few towels," said classmate Marie Eid. The towels will serve as beds for the animals during their stay in the shelter.
"We collected all the towels into this towel pyramid," said student Sabrina Perez, "and we're going to give them to the dogs so they have a nice warm place to sleep."
Animal care
Animal Control Officer Vincent Ascolese visited the school on Dec. 13 to accept the donation, bringing along a friendly Jack Russell terrier, to the delight of the children. Ascolese provided tips on animal care and lessons on how to care for animals responsibly.
He described the shelter's mission to "protect and rescue" as many lost, stray, and unwanted domestic animals as possible, advising the kids that "if you see something, say something," if they come across a situation with an abused or mistreated animal.
The shelter staff also train and coordinate the all-volunteer County Animal Response Team (CART) responsible for responding to local emergencies affecting animals, including disasters like Superstorm Sandy.
"This is a really good opportunity for the children to better their lives through education" – Andrea Eberhard
Accompanying Ascolese on his visit to the school were Animal Control Officer Calvin Hale and Assistant Shelter Director Kristi Heller.
Kids helping kids
While the towel drive benefits local animals, 1,500 miles away, a group of kids will receive a different kind of gift from Roosevelt School's students.
"We're doing a toy drive for children in Haiti," explained fifth grade teacher Andrea Eberhard. "It's through a foundation called Edeyo.com. We feed, educate, and provide uniforms for 300 children. They don't have to pay for it. We have two schools located in the worst part of Port-au-Prince called Bel Air, so this is a really good opportunity for the children to better their lives through education. We've had great support from everybody; all the teachers and a lot of the students have donated toys."
In addition to teaching at the elementary school and high school, Eberhard sits on the board of Edeyo. "Other businesses around the city and I believe Montclair school district, one of the schools there is having a toy drive as well, so all these toys are going to go on a plane at Kennedy Airport on Monday the 16th," Eberhard said. "These are Christmas toys. Whatever the toys that our children at the school don't use, those toys will be given to kids in the community."
This is the first partnership between Edeyo and the Roosevelt School. "It's a good effort by the people to Weehawken to show their support and definitely for the children to see how other people live lives very different. And so my class is actually doing a report on Haiti so they can learn about Haiti. It's so close but very, very different so they're doing a research project."
"This is great for everybody and it's a lot of fun to do," said student Sabrina Perez about the holiday projects. "Especially with all my friends."
Among the other Roosevelt School peer leaders involved in these projects were students Fiza Abid, Loen Albuquerque, Andrea Carranza, Kathyuska Carrillo, Leivys Garcia, Sean Guerriero, Natalie Jonas, Marlon Martinez, Misha Nair, Farah Rafiq, Hadyn Roman, Corey Vangelakos, and Ashley Yang.

STATE—New Jersey will receive $11.4 million in federal funds over the next four years to fund electronic health records projects that will allow hospitals, doctors and health insurance companies to share electronic medical records in real time over secure networks.
The state will work with the health care industry to create four regional health information exchanges that will share information such as lab results and medication histories among health care providers around the state. The exchanges hold the promise of improving health care quality and efficiency by eliminating duplicative testing, avoiding dangerous medication interactions and providing information about patient histories with other facilities that will help physicians improve care.
The funding, awarded under the federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, moves the state closer to the national goal of achieving interoperable electronic health records transfer capability by the year 2014.
The Department of Health and Senior Services led a multi-departmental effort to apply for the grant and to jointly submit a state plan for Health Information Technology.
Health and Senior Services Commissioner Dr. Poonam Alaigh and Banking and Insurance Commissioner Tom Considine explained that the goal of the initiative is to increase patient safety and reduce medical costs. The Department of Human Services, which runs the state's Medicaid program, is also involved in the initiative.
"The real-time exchange of clinical data among health-care providers represents a central pillar of health-care reform," said Dr. Alaigh. "If we're going to get serious about reducing costs, if we're going to get serious about managing patients with chronic disease, and if we're going to get serious about coordinating care, then accurate and robust data at the point of care is fundamental."
"These infrastructure projects are important building blocks in creating a network-wide electronic health records system," said Commissioner Considine. "These projects will help lead the way toward better and safer medical care for the people of New Jersey."
"When we began this effort more than a decade ago, we knew it would be an ambitious undertaking," said Considine. "An electronic health records system translates to important cost savings for hundreds of thousands of people."
When these projects are completed by March 2014, treatments including diagnostic tests such as legally required lead screening for children will be tracked, preventing unnecessary duplicate services. Another benefit of electronic health records is that any possible adverse reactions, such as drug allergies, would be known by the treating medical staff.
New Jersey's work on health information technology began in 1999 with the establishment of the Office for Electronic Health Information Technology. As required by ARRA, all states must develop a health IT network that registers every citizen by the end of 2015.
The grant award marks the culmination of a process among several departments of state government and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology. The Statewide Health Information Exchange Cooperative Agreement Program—offered by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology—required states to submit state Health IT Plans that addressed several issues, including privacy, security, and technical infrastructure.
The four exchanges that received funding have statewide coverage and were selected last fall through a competitive Request for Application process.

SLAM lunches
What is it?
SLAM stands for 'Science Link-up And Mentoring' and these lunches are a fun way to learn the ropes when you arrive on campus. In your first weeks at uni, you will want answers to all kinds of questions and these casual lunchtime meetings are a great place where you can talk to senior students about all things student-related, get good, reliable information and meet other first years outside of class.
Whether you're interested in finding out about clubs and societies, photocopy cards, accessing online course material, or research and scholarship opportunities, you're guaranteed to discover much more about life in the Faculty of Science and where you could be heading over the next three years (and beyond!).
By coming to the SLAM lunches you will meet the people you see in the hallways and know more about how science happens and who is responsible. There are two lunches in semester one and one in semester two and you will be amazed at how much information you can find out in just a couple of meetings. You may even decide to catch up with your SLAM lunch buddies more regularly!
Who is it for?
SLAM lunches are for first year undergraduate students enrolled in a Science degree, or a double degree involving one major from the Sciences.
These lunches provide an opportunity for you to meet other first years with similar interests, as well as senior students and academic researchers. You can also use the lunches to ask questions and chat about the possibilities for your future.
Who will be at my SLAM lunch?
When you register for SLAM lunches, you can choose a group that suits your interests and a time that suits your timetable. At your lunch, you will meet other first year students registering for this group and two or three senior students who can field your questions and share their insights.
The seniors you meet at your SLAM lunches are students who want to help you settle in (and avoid some of the mistakes they made!). These students are in 2nd year, 3rd year, honours and sometimes even PhD level, across a wide range of degrees and disciplines. They are often involved in social societies, including SciSoc, TSP and Science Revue, and will keep you in the loop with updates on what's happening around campus.
Tutors and demonstrators as well as academics and researchers in the Faculty of Science are also happy to chat to you and can offer some wonderful insights on opportunities available to you (as well as tips on preparing for assessments and exams!).
When will it be held?
Two SLAM lunches are held during Semester 1 (week 2 and week 4), in the Science Outreach Centre, Level 1, Carslaw Building.
One SLAM lunch is held in Semester 2 (week 2), also held in the Science Outreach Centre, Level 1, Carslaw Building.
Following the lunches, senior students will keep in touch with you and let you know about barbeques and events happening around campus.
Where will it be held?
SLAM Lunch will be held by the Outreach Centre, Carslaw Building (F07).
Go down the stairs in front of Carslaw Kitchen cafe and you will see us there.
Please note this is a registered event.
Examples of groups
- Chemistry
- Geosciences (Geology, Geography and Geophysics)
- Liberal Arts and Sciences (BLAS)
- Life Sciences (inc. Agriculture and Environment, and Animal and Veterinary Bioscience)
- Medical Sciences
- Physics
- Psychology
- Science (Meet people from different disciplines)
NB: The first years and senior students you meet at these lunches will have varied interests. If you have timetable conflicts for your preferred group, of if your preferred group is full, please register for another group that interests you. You will still be meeting seniors who have taken many of the classes you are doing now, meet some great people and find out lots of useful info.
You will have the opportunity to ask any questions you would like answered by a senior student at your lunch. Your identity will remain confidential so don't be shy to ask the silly questions here – you will probably find that other students want the same answers!
Before your first meeting, you will receive a reminder and the senior students attending your SLAM lunch will contact you to introduce themselves.
Register for SLAM Lunches
Registration for Semester 1, 2018 has closed.

Bitter's Big Day Powers UNC Past Hopkins
April 3, 2010
Courtesy of UNC Athletics
BALTIMORE, Md. - Billy Bitter returned from his leg injury to score four goals to lead the No. 3 North Carolina men's lacrosse team to an 11-7 victory over No. 14 Johns Hopkins before a crowd of 4,012 at Homewood Field. The Tar Heels improved to 10-0, the first time it has started a season with 10 wins in a row since the 1991 team went 16-0 en route to winning the national championship.
UNC's defense was stellar with Chris Madalon making nine saves. The unit as a whole limited the Blue Jays to seven goals, the fewest Hopkins has scored against Carolina at Homewood Field since 1988 in a 6-5 Johns Hopkins win.
Bitter's four goals matched his season high which he had in UNC's 13-7 win at Duke last month. He led a balanced scored attack which saw seven other Tar Heels score a goal each, including the first career goals for freshmen midfielders Cam Wood and Ian Braddish. Jimmy Dunster, Gavin Petracca, Marcus Holman, Michael Burns and Chris Layne also scored goals for the Tar Heels in the win. Dunster, Petracca, Holman and defenseman Milton Lyles all had a single assist for the Tar Heels.
The Blue Jays, who have now lost four in a row to fall to 4-5, were led by a hat trick by Kyle Wharton and two goals by midfielder Max Chautin. Tom Palasek had a pair of assists for Hopkins.
UNC and Hopkins traded the lead back-and-forth for most of the first half before the Tar Heels took a 6-5 lead into intermission. UNC then scored the first two goals of the second half and ended up outscoring the Blue Jays 5-2 in the second half. Gavin Petracca's goal with 11:04 left in the third quarter proved to be the game-winner.
UNC outshot the Blue Jays 39-36 and the Blue Jays had a slight edge in ground balls 24-21. Madalon played the whole 60 minutes in goal for UNC and improved to 10-0. Pierce Bassett made his first career start for Hopkins and had six saves and 11 goals allowed.
Hopkins won 11 face-offs to 10 for UNC with Michael Burns going 10 of 20 for Carolina. UNC scored the only two extra-man goals of the game while Hopkins went 0-for-4 in its extra-man chances.
Kyle Wharton opened the scoring for Hopkins with a goal just after a penalty had expired against the Tar Heels. The goal came with 12:45 left in the first quarter off an assist by Zach Palmer. Billy Bitter then tied the game on an unassisted goal on the doorstep of right crease at 9:44 of the first quarter. Bitter than put the Tar Heels ahead just 32 seconds later on a goal off an assist by Jimmy Dunster. Bitter took a pass from Dunster and then rolled in front of the crease for a putaway from three yards away. Hopkins tied it quickly at 7:23 on an unassisted goal by Max Chautin from the right side.
Bitter then scored after a Johns Hopkins shot hit the pipe and bounded out to midfield. Bitter won the ground ball just inside the midfield stripe, pivoted past his defender and raced down the middle of the field, scoring from 10 yards away. That proved to the last goal of the first quarter that ended with UNC ahead 3-2.
Hopkins tied the game 45 seconds into the second quarter on an unassisted goal by Steven Boyle while a delayed penalty flag was down on the field against the Tar Heels. The Blue Jays then went ahead 4-3 on a goal by Kyle Wharton assisted by Tom Palasek with 11:48 left in the second quarter. At 8:35, UNC's Ian Braddish tied the game on his first career goal, driving toward the middle and scoring high past Johns Hopkins goalie Pierce Bassett. The Tar Heels went ahead on a fast break goal by Chris Layne on a bounce shot off the goalie with an assist by Milton Lyles at 6:29. At 3:43 left in the quarter, UNC went up 6-4 on an extra-man goal with Gavin Petracca feeding Marcus Holman on the crease for the putaway. Hopkins answered right back less than a minute later on an unassisted goal by Max Chautin on a bounce shot.
The Tar Heels went ahead 7-5 as Jimmy Dunster drove the left alley and scored unassisted at 13:05. The Tar Heels scored an extra-man goal at 11:04 as Gavin Petracca took a pass on the left side from Marcus Holman and scored from 10 yards out. Hopkins pulled back within two goals at 8-6 as Kyle Wharton got an unassisted goal after claiming a loose ball in a scrum in front of the goal mouth. The Tar Heels scored just five seconds later as Michael Burns won the face-off on a violation, ran down the middle of the field and sent a high, hard shot in the upper right corner. That was the last goal of the quarter as the Tar Heels led 9-6 after three quarters.
Billy Bitter scored the first goal of the fourth quarter as he rolled the crease on the right side off a restart and scored unassisted at 6:46 of the period. Hopkins matched the goal less than a minute later on a goal by John Ranagan assisted by Tom Palasek with 5:49 left in the fourth quarter. Cam Wood then scored his first career goal at 1:14 of fourth quarter into an empty net as the Hopkins team was trying to get a takeaway.
The Tar Heels will travel to the new Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. to take on top-ranked Virginia next Saturday at 4 p.m. in the Konica Minolta Big City Classic. The game will be nationally televised on ESPNU.

Las Vegas, Nevada (NAPSI) - There are two kinds of travelers: over-packers and under-packers. For whichever you are, travel enthusiast, style expert and QVC program host Lisa Robertson who mastered the art of how to pack after years of balancing her love of fashion with the struggles of packing it all-shares her most valuable tips for successful trips.
• Pack for activities you know you'll be doing. You can add later as space allows.
• To pack smaller, you'll need to rewear things, so pick what you love. Your taste and comfort zones don't change with location.
• Shoes take up more room than anything else in your suitcase, so take one comfortable pair for sightseeing all day, one pair of heels, and a pair of sneakers if you'll be working out.
• A good rule for handbags is one to carry and one that packs flat in the luggage...no more.
• A packed suitcase is like a map: Once you unfold it, it never really goes back the same way. If you start out with a suitcase you can barely close, you'll return with an additional bag. Either plan for that or leave room.

Creepy or creative, we can't quite decide, but one thing's for sure: the Aeroskull speakers from Jarre Technologies are certainly eye catching.
The manufacturer - founded by synthesiser enthusiast and he of Oxygene fame, Jean Michel Jarre – has begun selling the Aeroskull docking speaker in a range of 11 colours, including purple, red, silver and blue.
Each skull – yes the speakers really are in the shape of a naked head – sports a pair of sunglasses that hide two 15 Watt speakers, while the back houses a 40 watt subwoofer.
Though the Aeroskull can be used as a docking station for an iPhone 4S (you'll need an adapter for the iPhone 5) or iPod, the speakers are Bluetooth compatible and also comes boxed with a 3.5mm jack cable to hook up other devices. The Aeroskull comes with an IR remote control and weighs 4.5kg.
So how much for one of these skeletal speaker systems? The Jarre Aeroskull will be available in the UK from October for £349.

SODO Kitchen, Starbucks Headquarters, Seattle
Social responsibility and high-end fare meet at Starbucks café.
Next to the rotisserie there is a soup station, which offers a weekly and daily soup option. Then there is the grill, where Stromire says the team likes to pair grain salads with grill options such as fresh, local fish.
"We usually have three wonderful fresh fish options, which all come with a really nice healthy salad with different flavor profiles," Stromire says. "There is usually a nice garnish on top. Depending on the theme of the week, it could be an Asian garnish, etc."
The station also shakes things up a little with its burger program, choosing not to serve a traditional "have it your way" burger on a daily basis, but to serve themed burgers instead.
"We always have a mini, which is our version of a slider," Stromire says. "It could be a vegetarian mini, a lamb mini, anything. It's a good opportunity to try something for cheap. We also have a burger that rotates different flavors. We kind of tell you what the theme of the burger is and try and educate you that way. That said, we do offer a traditional burger every few months."

Though still a bit uneasy, you understand the attractions of investing in mutual funds and think you have narrowed down the type of fund you want to purchase. You feel pretty confident knowing that mutual funds allow you to play the stock market and generate a respectable rate of return without having to pick the winners on your own. But with over 10,000 mutual funds to choose from, you can be sure that there are a significant number of "losers" out there. Before making any financial commitments review this checklist to make sure you're really prepared.
Identify Your Goals
It goes without saying that until you understand your investment objectives, you should hold off on your purchase. While mutual funds present a convenient and cost effective strategy of diversifying investments, and don't necessarily demand your management, you need to understand your goals to choose the right mix if funds that can work to achieve them. Are you seeking aggressive growth, capital preservation, or something in between? Is this investment long term, or do you plan to use your earnings in the short term, possibly as a down payment, or for college tuition?
Buy a mutual fund that is in sync with your investment objectives, not because it has done well recently or you read about it in the paper. Or, that worst case scenario, your neighbor has been raving about it! For long term investment strategies, any track record less than five years just isn't that reliable. It's generally not recommended that you focus exclusively on returns. Consider the fund's performance over longer periods of time and compare it to peers or an index that represents the type of asset class the fund is in.
Read the Prospectus
A prospectus illustrates the mutual fund's fees and investment objectives, and includes relevant financial data such as investment methods and risk description. By law, this report must be presented to all investors. It should include information about the fund managers and compensation agreements, detail procedures for buying and selling shares, dividend and capital gain distributions, and other services related to the fund. Read the prospectus from cover to cover before making your investment.
Ask About Fees
Fees are displayed in the prospectus as well as on many mutual fund research sites. Look for funds with low expenses and avoid " 12-b fees ". A rule 12-b fee is one applied towards marketing expenses, which means either commissions or advertising expenses. This fee will add to your annual expenses and can be as high as 1.25% per year. Also avoid "loaded funds"; funds that carry front-end loads, back-end loads or deferred loads, which are basically sales charges. There are plenty of no-load funds out there to choose from.
Understand the Level of Risk
You should be pretty comfortable with the level of risk of the fund you are interested in. Of course, when you make an investment, there is always some degree of risk, but don't take any risk that you are not comfortable with and never take unnecessary risks.
Investigate the Fund Manager
What firm serves as the fund's adviser and who manages the fund? It might not be a bad idea to do some background checking to make sure it is a decent entity. The Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) is the official regulator for mutual funds and has information about each fund and its manager. Also look out for recent manager changes. Though a new fund manager may be just as good or better, it is important to realize that all the fund statistics from before may not be relevant, especially in an actively managed fund.
Know the Record Date?
The record date is a date set by the issuing company on which you already must own shares to receive a dividend or capital gains distribution. Before you buy, ask about the realized gains (profits) in the fund's portfolio. If realized gains are more than 5% of the value of the fund's underlying securities, and the record date of the next capital gain distribution is near, you may want to hold off on purchasing until the record date has passed. Otherwise you will "buy the dividend", and will have to pay tax on the capital gains. This rule generally applies to one-time lump sum investments, verses continuing dividend reinvestments. In that case, it is better to buy the dividend then fail to invest.
Read Reviews
There is so much to think about before your investment, but these items are a good start. Remember that fund performance is subject to frequent reviews by various publications and rating agencies, including Barron's, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, Money Magazine, only to a few, making it easier for you to conduct direct comparisons between funds. Spending the time to make comparisons is well worth the assurance that the money you put towards your investment is all going to work for you.

Confidence & Disruption
Confidence & Disruption
The Global Confidence Index – a joint initiative of the World Economic Forum's Risk Response Network and Global Agenda Councils – is a quarterly survey which reveals how a unique community of international experts perceives the state of the world economy, the likelihood of upcoming geopolitical, societal or economic shocks, and the ability of global institutions to cope. The ultimate value of these results is to present the overall confidence of over 1,000 of the world's leading thinkers, businessmen and public figures on a quarterly basis.
Global Experts Poll: Economic Confidence Firms in Fourth Quarter, but Gloom Prevails
- 56% of respondents lacked confidence in global economy in fourth quarter, down from 72%
- Respondents in North America more worried about an economic shock than those in Asia
- Sixth quarterly Global Confidence Index polled 460 experts from business, government, international organizations and academia who are members of the Forum's Network of Global Agenda Councils
- Access the full analysis and results online at http://www.weforum.org/ConfidenceIndex
Geneva, Switzerland, 12 November 2012 – Confidence in the state of the world economy firmed up in the fourth quarter, although a majority of respondents to the World Economic Forum's Global Confident Index poll were still pessimistic. Amid some signs that the slowdown in China has bottomed out, 56% of global experts polled said they lacked confidence in the global economy, sharply down from 72% last quarter.
"The results are indeed an improvement from last quarter's confidence levels, but sentiment overall remains pessimistic," said Martina Gmur, Senior Director of the Forum's Network of Global Agenda Councils. "We still need strategic vision coupled with bold leadership to snap out of this global malaise."
In a poll of 460 experts, respondents in the Middle East and North Africa were significantly more confident about the global economy than those in North America, Europe, Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.
Reflecting sentiment in the run-up to the presidential elections in the United States and China's political transition, respondents in North America were more worried about an upcoming economic shock than their counterparts in Asia. Some 63% in the US and Canada judged this as likely or very likely versus 43% in Asia.
"While the probability of a global recession is no greater than about 25%, according to forecasts, three risks loom large: the US fiscal cliff, the eurozone sovereign debt crisis and the potential for an escalation of conflict in the Middle East and North Africa," said Nariman Behravesh, Chief Economist at IHS and a member of the Global Agenda Council on the United States.
Overall, the number of respondents worried about an economic jolt fell to 52% from 68% last quarter, while those concerned about a social shock fell to 46% from 53%. Expectations of a geopolitical, environmental or technological disturbance were little changed, at 56%, 36% and 25% respectively.
Confidence in global governance improved, with the number of respondents lacking faith in this area falling to 51% from 61%. Respondents from the Middle East and North Africa expressed more confidence in global institutions than their counterparts in Europe.
The Global Confidence Index – a joint initiative of the World Economic Forum's Risk Response Network and Global Agenda Councils – is the only research initiative of its kind targeting such a large group of international experts who focus on monitoring key trends, identifying global risks and mapping their interlinkages. The first quarterly report was issued in September 2011 and today's results are the sixth successive instalment.

Global toy and game maker, Hasbro Inc., has been recognized by Whole Living and named this year's "Green Giant" for its successful drive to eliminate wire ties in its product packaging, replacing them with more environmentally-friendly ties made from bamboo and paper rattan.
This small change has eliminated approximately 34,000 miles of non-recyclable wire ties, enough to wrap around the circumference of the Earth at least once. Hasbro has taken additional steps toward protecting the planet, including reduction of product packaging material, increasing recycled content, and enacting a responsible paper sourcing policy.
