Pacquiao vs. Bradley 2: History Will Repeat ItselfApril 12, 2014
On Saturday night, Manny Pacquiao (55-5-2, 38 KO) and Timothy Bradley (31-0, 12 KO) will meet for the second time in the ring. This match has been hyped up by media outlets such as HBO's series 24/7, but don't expect anything to be different this time around, except for the judges' scorecards.
Pacquiao and Bradley first fought at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in June of 2012. Most boxing experts and pundits scored Pacquiao as the victor at the end of their 12-round contest, but to everyone's astonishment, the judges handed in a split decision in Bradley's favor.
This ruling set off a whirl of controversy that has haunted Bradley ever since. Beating Pacquiao should have been the highlight of his career; however, it ended up turning into one of the biggest question marks.
During the first fight, Bradley played the role of defensive counterpuncher. He was cautious and hesitant, which didn't please fans. Pacquiao pushed the action and was the aggressor throughout the fight, but Bradley's movement made it hard for Pacquiao to land anything solid.
Overall, their first fight was entertaining but not compelling. No one was ever hurt, and no dynamic flurries were exchanged. In all, the fight took on the appearance of a glorified sparring match, not a $60.00 pay-per-view event.
The controversy of the first fight lies in the difference between the reality of what occurred in the ring and how the judges scored the bout. According to CompuBox, Pacquiao outlanded Bradley 253-159. This is the fight that the majority of the world saw—one where Pacquiao outworked Bradley and landed nearly 100 punches more than him.
But judges C.J. Ross and Duane Ford both scored the contest 115-113 in favor of Bradley, which gave him the split-decision victory, even though statistical and qualitative data seemed to prove otherwise.
Since the first Pacquiao fight, Bradley has fought twice and has appeared to have a chip on his shoulder. The criticism he received from the public after his decision victory against Pacquiao has impacted his recent performances.
When he faced Ruslan Provodnikov nearly a year after the Pacquiao fight, Bradley came out throwing power punches and looking for a knockout. He completely changed his style from a defensive counterpuncher to an action brawler. It appeared like he was trying to prove to boxing fans that he deserved to be recognized as one of the best boxers in the world.
His fight with Provodnikov was thrilling to fight fans but also hazardous to his health. Bradley was often hurt in the early rounds and looked several times like he was on the verge of being knocked out.
Somehow, he found ways to rally and outboxed Provodnikov in the middle and later rounds. Bradley was knocked down in the 12th round, but he won by unanimous decision. He gained a lot of fans by displaying courage and perseverance but also received a severe concussion for his efforts.
Against Provodnikov, Bradley proved to fight fans that he has heart and a strong chin. He also learned that he is not a power puncher and is much more efficient as a counterpuncher.
The one way in which Pacquiao vs. Bradley looks appealing is if you believe Bradley's boxing skills have improved more than Pacquiao's have regressed. In his last fight, Bradley easily outpointed Juan Manuel Marquez, who ironically knocked out Pacquiao after fighting Bradley.
The mistake that many boxing enthusiasts will make is that they will look at Marquez as a barometer for both fighters. They will use Pacquiao vs. Marquez 4 to show how Pacquiao has lost his edge, while using Marquez vs. Bradley to show Bradley's growth.
This would be an error on their part.
As the old saying goes, styles make fights. Bradley and Marquez have fought four times, and all of those fights, except for the last one, were close. Their styles mesh together well to expose each other's weaknesses. It's almost like Pacquiao and Marquez were made to be the ultimate antagonist for each other.
Bradley's style gave Marquez trouble. It forced Marquez out of the comforts of being a pure counterpuncher. He had to be more aggressive to push the action, which usually doesn't work out well for the Mexican.
When trying to predict the outcome of Saturday night's bout between Pacquiao and Bradley, the best measurement to use is their previous fight. Major changes have occurred in both boxers' lives since their first fight, but one thing hasn't changed: their styles.
Look for Pacquiao vs. Bradley 2 to be a carbon copy of Pacquiao vs. Bradley 1. Hopefully, the only thing that changes is the quality of the judges' scoring.

Sunshine and Mown Grass
This is a very old post that was automatically imported from LiveJournal. I have done my best to fix up the formatting, but some issues may remain. Comments have not been preserved.
So today, it finally decided to be sunny again. My mission for today: Do something, anything, other than moping around the house. Mission successful!
I managed to spend about seven hours at my Grandma's, helping to sort out her garden. I still don't really like gardening very much, but nevertheless it was fun! One day down, one more to go this weekend. Tomorrow, I will be mostly washing my hakama and learning to sew. Should be another busy day!
After the last time, comments about me becoming a housewife are now officially banned from this thread =p
Seven days to go.

Long runs -- a 69-yarder by Josh Walinski and a 40-yard jaunt by quarterback Nick Grandolfo -- propelled Carmel Catholic over East Suburban Catholic rival Nazareth Academy 13-7 at Nazareth's Valenta Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Walinski (14 carries, 112 yards, TD, fumble) went from being the hero to the goat -- and back to the hero again in the last few minutes of the game. His 69-yard scamper set up the first score midway through the second quarter.
"We run that play a lot," Walinski said. "It just so happens we caught them in a weird formation and one of our linemen made a great block and cut me loose. It was all green from there."
Grandolfo (9 carries, 72 yards, TD) followed Walinski's long run with a 40-yard touchdown run, which turned out to be the winning score against Nazareth (2-3, 0-3).
Just when it looked as if Carmel (2-3, 2-1) would make its 13-0 lead hold up, Walinski fumbled on his own 7-yard line, allowing Nazareth's Joshua Moore (18 carries, 67 yards) the opportunity to score his team's only touchdown.
"That's my bad," Walinski said. "That's completely on me. But all my teammates and coaches said to forget about it and play hard on the next play."
"He was trying to make a great play but instead set up their touchdown, but that's the way it goes sometimes," said Carmel coach Andy Bitto.
Clinging to a slim 13-7 lead with only a couple of minutes left in the fourth quarter and facing a third-and-15 on his own 40-yard line, Grandolfo pitched the ball to running back Tim Serio. He broke into the open, gaining 26 yards and a key first down in Nazareth territory.
"We didn't run that play all game," said Grandolfo. "We thought that would be a good moment to get outside since they were bunched up in the middle."
Walinski became the hero again, following Serio's run with a 10-yard burst of his own, sealing the victory for Carmel.
"This means a whole lot," Grandolfo said. "We're much better than our record shows. I think we proved that today."
"I thought our offense managed the game well, and I thought our defense played great," said Carmel coach Andy Bitto. "You have to stop the running game no matter what. We beat a really good team here today. This is probably one of the best victories we've had in a long, long time."
"Our line did a great job all day," Walinski said. "It all starts with the big boys. Without them we don't do anything. They carried us today, both sides of the ball."

The BACH beamline belongs to the Istituto Officina dei Materiali (IOM) of the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR) and it is operated by a CNR team in collaboration with Elettra-Sincrotrone Trieste S.C.p.A.
Research highlights | Publications
In the UHV (low 10-10 mbar) endstation of the BRANCH A it is possible to perform a multi-spectroscopy investigation with photoemission UPS/XPS (including polarization and photon energy-dependent ultra-violet (UV) and soft-x SX-ARPES (SEE FIGURE), RESPES and energy-dependent Photoelectron DIffraction PhD), x-ray absorption XAS (TEY,PEY,TFY,PFY) including GAP SCAN acquisitions, x-ray emission XES and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism XMCD (in remanence in the branch A). A LEED and several electron beam evaporators are available to deposit selected metals on the sample surface at different temperatures. A sample-preparation UHV chamber, directly connected to the EndstationA can be used to grow thin films of metals or metal oxides and deposit organic/inorganic molecules, hybrid systems or magnetic elements on solid surfaces for in-situ investigations.
The experimental setup of the BRANCH A can also combine Laser and Synchrotron Radiation (SR) in order to study the dynamics of the photo-induced excited states of electronic and magnetic systems with optical pump- x ray probe time-resolved XAS. Elettra Synchrotron radiation source provides radiation pulse widths sufficiently short to investigate dynamic processes in the time between 70 ps up to 0.5 μs. Typically, optical excitation of the sample is done by laser pulses (synchronized to either hybrid or multi bunch SR pulses), and probing is performed by time-delayed synchrotron radiation pulses.
The experimental setup of the BRANCH B hosts a new endstation dedicated to x-ray magnetic circular dichroism in high magnetic fields (± 6.5 Tesla, ramp rate of 1T/min) along the beam and variable tempertaure from 1.8 K to 340 K on the sample in a base pressure of 1.2x10-11 mbar (only by cryopumping). A sample UHV preparation chamber with a LEED, cleaving and scraping facilities, possibility to install evaporators without breaking the UHV has been assembled, installed and already tested and used for a first in-situ XMCD experiment (May 2014. The first XMCD measurements with the new cryomagnet at low T (4 K) under high magnetic fields have been obtained during the commissioning (March 2013, sample courtesy of J. Fontcuberta). The endstation can be used to measure XMCD both under applied magnetic fields and in remanence.
DUE TO THE LACK OF FUNDS FOR PURCHASING LHe THIS ENDSTATION WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE.
A third BRANCH C is also available for the installation of user endstations for long term projects.
VG-Scienta R3000 analyser (Dichroic EUV-SX-RES-ARPES, RESPES, fast XPS and UPS, PhD, partial yield XAS)
A VG-Scienta hemispherical electron analyzer (CNR) has been installed in mid December 2011 on the branch A, replacing the VSW 150 mm analyser (Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste S.C.p.A.).This instrument offers the possibility to perform angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) with energy resolution better that 3 meV and angular resolution better than 0.1° and full control of the polarization in a wide photon energy range (from 35 to 1600 eV) for band mapping and surface structural studies. This instrument can be used to perform polarization and photon energy dependent ARPES from the Extreme UV to the Soft X ray range (35-1600eV). In particular RES SX ARPES can be performed for example at resonance of transition metals L23 edge.
A quick acquisition mode is available to perform Fast XPS/UPS/ARPES, e.g. during chemical reactions, with 320 msec total acquisition time per spectrum.
The same instrument can be used to acquire Partial Yield XAS (secondary or Auger electrons), together with the drain current from the sample (TEY). Gap-scan partial yield XAS is also possible.
Resonant Photoemission and Energy dependent Photoelectron Diffraction spectra are acquired in a full automatized mode since the instrument has been interfaced to the monochromator and undulators of the beamline.
Please contact F. Bondino and E. Magnano for details.
Gap Scan Operation Mode
"Gap/Phase Energy scan" acquisition mode (synchronization of the undulator gap and phase with the monochromator) has been implemented to XAS, XMCD, RESPES, ARPES and PhD. This has been possible thanks to the collaboration with undulator group (D. Millo, ST), Undulator server group (L. Pivetta, L. Scafuri, ST), A. Barla (ISM-CNR), L. Stebel (ST)
Proposal Submission
Before submitting a proposal for the BACH beamline we invite user to read the Info for Users and this page to have an updated information on the endstations and instrumentation. In any case we invite users and collaborators to discuss their proposals with the beamline local contacts well in advance before the submission deadline. This is crucial for a careful assessment of the experiment feasibility and may lead to improvements in the proposed experimental plan. We invite users interested in installing a bulky piece of equipment (such as an entire experimental station) which takes a long time to assemble and dismount to discuss their project with the beamline local contacts well in advance before the submission deadline.
Elettra deadlines:
September 15th, 2015
for proposals eligible for the user period starting from January 1st to June 30th, 2016
Safety First!
Any person working at the BACH beamline has to read and follow the safety rules described here before accessing the beamline BACH Safety Rules

Demi Lovato Is a Skyscraper
Hear Lovato's blatant new single, "Skyscraper."
It might seem a bit heartless to say about an 18-year-old girl dealing publicly with intimate matters, but trust that it's meant in the most encouraging way possible: Now that she's back, it looks like Demi Lovato — the Disney starlet who entered a rehab facility in Illinois earlier this year for "emotional and physical issues" — timed her breakdown just right. Before, she was still virtually unknown outside the tween community, who watched her on the comedy Sonny With a Chance and rocked with her on the actually-pretty-great 2009 single "Here We Go Again." Now, though, as Daily Intel explained when Lovato first checked in to rehab, "Adults, in case you are wondering: Yes, this does mean that after years of avoiding it, you now have to learn what a Demi Lovato is." Which brings us to this morning's release of "Skyscraper," her new ballad, and quite possibly the first time many of you are consciously paying attention to her.
Three things to note here:
1. The decision to make Lovato's first single since rehab a corny, generic, opportunistic "I will survive" anthem is simultaneously majorly disheartening and wholly, indisputably sound. Here, she's inverting the Lohan trajectory, getting her messy personal stuff out of the way before the actual adult breakthrough. In fact, counterintuitively, the messy personal stuff is now helping to launch the adult breakthrough, quite possibly via "Skyscraper."
2. The resilience-explicating metaphor used here is that — ready? — Demi Lovato is a skyscraper (and Rob Schneider is a stapler!). No, seriously: "go ahead to try to tear me down / I will be rising from the ground like a skyscraper." This is weird, right? Like, the wording and tone suggest that Lovato and her songwriters are not aware that skyscrapers are built by people and do not rise spontaneously of their own volition?
3. "Skyscraper" is a well-constructed pop song that deserves a place on the charts. But can the next single be about that time she punched a Jonas Brothers backup dancer in the face?

other than light, travel, and life in general one of my biggest sources of inspiration is the works of other photographers... alfred eisenstaedt and henri cartier bresson were both pretty influential to me when i first got interested in photography. i shot all black and white and all film. here's a scanned photograph that i took almost ten years ago in south africa... it's probably a favorite of my earliest images... but it's definitely a by-product of my influencers. one of the most common things said in photography when one is first starting out, is to find your own voice... your own unique look... your niche. it's also one of the hardest things to actually do. for a long time i towed the line between being inspired by photography, and trying to mimic those i admired. it took me some time, some errors, and a ton of shooting to find my own voice... and it's still something i'm still tweaking with... but i've come an enormous distance in my journey. i watched a national geographic documentary the other night entitled :the photographers. it was released in 1998... such a short time ago, but enormous in the digital revolution. these photographers were sharing their stories about photographs, how they captured images, before and after anecdotes etc... but what i was most struck by was how much higher the bar was back then... when everyone only shot film. no sneak peaks to see if your focus was spot on, or exposure was correct... or lighting was perfect... those guys were really good at what they did! i shoot all digital, but can't part with ways with my canon ae-1, polaroid sx-70, or mamiya 645... i've got some mixed feelings about the direction digital is taking us. i feel like the photo pool is so much bigger and the bar is so much lower...thousands of people buy preconceived photo actions, and suddenly everyone's photos are looking more and more the same. i've even known some people to blatantly rip off my own looks, ideas, subjects... guess that's why they say "imitation is the purest form of flattery"... anyways, i'm getting away from the point which is i suppose: finding the balance of being inspired by photography, while maintaining the integrity to staying true to yourself and your own innovative vision. that being said, i thought i'd post a couple of links of photographers i admire... or where i go for a little photo inspiration.... enjoy...
Caroline tran (weddings, kids, babies, families photographer extraordinaire...)
Jason Lowe (pretty much my favorite food photographer of all time...)
frederic lagrange (travel, editorial photographer and self taught just like me)
amanda marsalis (i've loved this girl's for years. she photographs travel and people and light in amazing ways...)
maria vettese (a reminder that sometimes the most everyday things can make for beautiful images)
anthony kurtz (india has got to be one of the most photographed places on earth,
but having been there this guy captures the spirit of that place like few others...
the grit, the beauty, the poverty, the color, the strength... it's all in there.)
todd richardson (again, the smallest things in the smallest places, thank god someone sees them)
there's more of course... hundreds. but for today that's a good taste i think.
happy monday,

A Prospective Clinical Study to Evaluate Early Success of Short Implants
Kelly S. Kennedy, DDS, MS/Elizabeth Matteson Jones, DDS/Do-Gyoon Kim, PhD/Edwin A. McGlumphy, DDS, MS/Nancy L. Clelland, DMD, MS
DOI: 10.11607/jomi.2810
Purpose: Short implants are an alternative to bone augmentation procedures for patients with reduced bone height. This study evaluated the success of short implants in posterior locations prior to loading. Materials and Methods: Eighteen patients received at least four Astra Tech implants in symmetric posterior locations. Implants (n = 82) ranged from 6 to 11 mm with 70 implants ≤ 9 mm and 38 implants = 6 mm. Placement was planned virtually using software and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans. Computer-generated guides were ordered for all patients; however, lack of interarch distance precluded their use for five patients. In these situations, guides were used to communicate pilot drill position only. Osteotomies were prepared using the guides and accompanying drill sequence following a two-stage surgical approach. Degree of bone mineralization (DBM) parameters for implant osteotomy sites were measured using three-dimensional CBCT images taken before and after implant placement. A paired t test was performed to compare the DBM parameters between failed and successful implantation sites. Results: Early failure occurred for 7 out of 82 implants or 8.5%. All of the failed implants were 6 mm in length and placed using computer-aided design/ computer-assisted manufacture (CAD/CAM) surgical guides. Three failures occurred in one patient. Bone grafting was done for failed implant sites, and after healing, new implants were placed using conventional surgical guides. No further failures occurred. The most frequent value (peak) for DBM was significantly higher for failed implant sites than for successful ones (paired t test, P = .043). Conclusion: Current failures suggest that CAD/CAM guides used with external irrigation may pose a greater risk for the success of 6-mm implants placed in posterior areas with advanced bone loss. This may be due to the bone density in these highly resorbed areas combined with limited irrigation reaching the osteotomy sites. Int J Oral Maxillofac Implants 2013;28:170177. doi: 10.11607/jomi.2810
Key words: short implants, failure, bone density

Our Day at Junior Achievement's "JA You're Hired!" Event
Imagine that you're about to graduate from high school, but you've learned very little about how to land a job, including how to network, compose a resume, dress for an interview and much more. Most of us probably once found ourselves facing this exact scenario.
Lucky for them, some students get the preparation they need by participating in Junior Achievement's JA You're Hired! program. And fortunately for us, some of our team members from The Biltmore Bank of Arizona got to help those students develop the work-readiness skills required to transition from school into the work world.
The You're Hired! program includes a rigorous, 10-session classroom curriculum led over several weeks by Junior Achievement volunteers, and it culminates in a half-day JA You're Hired Challenge. This year's Challenge, where our staff members Jeremy King, Desirae Outcalt, Darlene Esquerra, Todd Leveen, Bryan Ellisor and Nathaniel Spatz helped out, included more than 500 students from Phoenix-area high schools, all of whom had completed at least five of the ten preparatory classes.
The day began with a few schools participating in an interview workshop sponsored by The Biltmore Bank of Arizona. We asked the students questions similar to what someone interviewing for a teller or personal banker position with our bank would be asked. Career coaches guided the students through interview skills, like showing up early, making eye contact, shaking hands, researching the company in advance and more. Students who participated in this workshop had a definite advantage during the interview challenge later in the day.
Once all 500-plus students had arrived and convened in the large ballroom, they were tasked with a networking challenge. "A lot of the kids were quiet and shy coming off the buses, but they were running all over the room to meet people by the end of this challenge," said Jeremy.
The students had one hour to meet as many of the 200 businesspeople volunteers as possible. Each had a bingo card with squares to fill in once they had met someone who met the criteria on the square – anything from someone who owns their own business to someone who speaks another language. The students were required to conduct themselves in a business-like fashion, so they had to introduce themselves and initiate conversation to find out the answers for their bingo cards.
Jeremy, who was volunteering for his second year at JA You're Hired!, this time as an organizer as well as volunteer, was impressed by the number of kids who were already planning the trajectory of their future careers. "We even told a few of the kids that they were welcome to call us to interview for a job in the future," he said.
After the networking challenge, where Desirae, Todd, Bryan, Nathaniel, Darlene and Jeremy all volunteered, the students participated in a creative marketing challenge, where they had to construct a product from loose materials in a box and develop an ad campaign; a STEM challenge, where they were tasked with figuring out math problems and puzzles; an interview challenge to test and hone their skills; and a thinking-on-your-feet challenge with real-life dilemmas to solve. The final challenge, called dress for success, caught the students off guard when they learned that select spies had been assessing their business attire at the networking event with the goal of presenting awards to the best-dressed school as well as best dressed boy and girl.
It was a tremendous day for these students, who learned very practical career skills, and for the volunteers who had a chance to give so many Phoenix-area kids a leg up in the business world.
We'd like to extend a special thank you to Todd, who serves on the Junior Achievement of Arizona board of directors and to Jeremy for working more than half a year on the JA You're Hired! planning committee.
While we may not always think of ourselves as role models, it's clear that you instantly become one when you volunteer at a Junior Achievement event. The business skills we come to take for granted can make all the difference in the world when you teach them to a young person.

Subscribe to Alpha M. on YouTube
Every Day Damn Fitness
In this video men's style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro presents Alan Roberts from YouTube's Every Damn Day Fitness.
His YouTube channel, Every Damn Day Fitness, is where he rips on Alpha and other style and fashion YouTubers like Antonio and Jose. Alan says that he dogged on anyone with fashion and muscular combination- and he grew by using popular YouTubers and using them in thumbnails. He talks about his 1st satirical video of Alpha's about resolutioners, which Alpha discusses the message he relayed.
Alpha had not heard of Alan until his videographer told him. Alpha was upset that Alan insinuated he was selling on men's insecurities as well as when he went after Antonio and Jose. Alpha said that Alan published the Evolution of Alpha M. which became his most popular video to-date. It turns out to actually be a complementary video. Alpha realized he's not just being negative just to be negative. Alan says that he wants positivity in his satire, but he leans into it very hard. He says he can be a big asshole.
Alpha then invited Alan to StyleCon since he saw Alan's joy and passion on YouTube. Alan says that YouTube is an incredible platform and thanks Alpha for inviting him. He's happy to see the other side of the coin. Alpha says that StyleCon is great because you're surrounded by smart people who have been there and done that, especially for someone who is starting up.

Introducing Cognitive Analytic Therapy. Principles and Practice

EDITED BY SIDNEY CROWN and ALAN LEE
Chichester: John Wiley & Sons. 2002. 265 pp. £19.99 (pb). ISBN 0 471 892734
Reading this book brought to mind a sobering experience from my youth. In 1966, I visited a psychotherapy institute in Leningrad (now St Petersburg). Its doctors said they used 'Pavlovian' psychotherapy. How did they do this? They admitted patients, took a detailed history of their upbringing and showed them how current maladaptive behaviours grew out of earlier forms of interaction with family and others which needed revision to become more appropriate to current circumstances. Western psychotherapists using a similar approach might have been surprised to hear that Pavlov was its progenitor. Now Ryle & Kerr see it as part of cognitive analytic therapy (CAT), which takes about 16 sessions. Together with the patient, the therapist writes a reformulation letter that sets out aims in therapy. The patient self-monitors, with the help of a diary, to spot problems as they arise and try to revise them, and rates target problems. The patient and therapist exchange goodbye letters at the penultimate or last session to review what has been achieved or remains to be done, and follow-up is arranged.
Case examples show how CAT assessment is done and reformulation letters and diagrams are constructed. Its use of a goal-oriented approach, diary-keeping, self-ratings and collaboration with the patient overlaps with the practice of behavioural and cognitive therapists. However, a case history of CAT in a patient with obsessive—compulsive rituals (pp. 138-144) highlights how CAT differs from behaviour therapy by exposure and ritual prevention: the ' target problem' procedures did not mention the rituals, the post-treatment rating of improvement did not say whether or not rituals reduced, and a mean of 16 sessions of 'brief' CAT exceeds the 9 sessions usual with face-to-face behavioural therapy, let alone the single hour of clinician contact needed with computer-aided behavioural therapy. The authors acknowledge the paucity of controlled trials of CAT. The aim of CAT in early dementia seemed unclear (p. 156).
The authors say that CAT derives its ideas from evolutionary psychology, genetics, developmental neurobiology and psychology, and uses a ' Vygotskian perspective' regarding 'sign mediation', ' Bakhtinian concepts of the dialogic self' and 'Kellyian personal construct therapy, cognitive therapy and psychoanalytic object relations theory'. These supposed roots remind one of the historian's warning of 'idols of origin'.
A would-be practitioner might learn more from the book's case illustrations than its turgid theoretical digressions, replete with redundant argot. We need not have heard of Vygotsky to know about meaning, intention and signs, or of Bakhtin to know that we are social beings.
The case histories give an idea of what CAT is about, but the book testifies to the long journey ahead before psychotherapy can reach the authors' laudable goal of a lucid language, method and evidence-base shared by all practitioners.

The questions on the U.S. Citizenship and Naturalization Exam cover U.S. government, history and civics, explains to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The exam asks applicants to answer correctly six out of 10 questions from a pool of 100, as of 2015. All 100 questions are available at USCIS.gov.Continue Reading
One question from the 2015 practice test asks applicants to identify two cabinet level positions from a list of possible answers. Cabinet level positions include the Vice President and the 15 heads of the executive departments, according to WhiteHouse.gov. Some examples of executive heads include, Secretary of Homeland Security, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and Attorney General.

Another question from the test pool asks applicants to identify one right or freedom granted by the First Amendment to the Constitution. Acceptable answers include, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly and the right to petition the government. Related questions ask the applicant to explain the purpose and function of the Constitution. Here, applicants must fully articulate the purpose and function and not simple provide one of its parts.

Though Netscape and Microsoft can't seem to agree on a standard for Dynamic HTML (DHTML), the two companies do agree on XML, the eXtensible Markup Language. When Communicator 5.0 ships this summer, Web developers may have something to cheer about: Netscape is going to support XML in its new line of browsers and it will be compatible with Microsoft's offering. Microsoft introduced XML support in Internet Explorer 4.0, though the support is based on pre-XML 1.0, the version Netscape will support. Microsoft has pledged to upgrade XML support in IE 4.0 to the XML 1.0 standard. Best of all, developers can get an early peek at XML in Communicator 5.0 on Tuesday, when Netscape releases the source code to the first beta version.
This is important news for Web developers because Netscape has always taken liberties with Internet standards. But Netscape's Ramanathan Guha insists that XML support in Communicator 5.0 will be completely standards-based, with "no hacks."
"\[Web developers\] will be the ones to decide how XML will be used in Navigator," Guha said. "The developer community for XML has the ownership rights and Netscape is completely behind you. Expect something much better in a couple months, and I'm looking at you guys to do it. We can make this happen really fast."

Always in reference to the woman who, fifteen months before, had treated him ill; he had said to himself that even the breaking of stones in the road should be considered a more feminine employment than the breaking of hearts.
He gave way therefore to a movement of friendliness for this working daughter of the people, and joined her on the other side of the stile in token of his approval. She, twisting round to face him, leaned now with her back against the bar, and the sunset fires lent a fleeting glory to her face. Perhaps she guessed how becoming the light was, for she took off her hat and let it touch to gold the ends and fringes of her rough abundant hair. Thus and at this moment she made an agreeable picture, to which stood as background all the beautiful, wooded Southshire view.

Yeah, but none of that disproves my point that Batman is a seasoned veteran at that point while Superman in Man of Steel isn't. Also he wasn't seeing first hand dozens of buildings imploding all around him. They're different contexts.
But the problem is that it wasn't shown during the threat. And there's no reason not to show it during the threat.
No. I'm not implying that forgetting has anything to do with this. I'm saying that in that scene Superman acts like he doesn't care about the destruction going on around him and that's weird and one line of dialogue and one reaction shot would have fixed that.
The Avengers weren't bad at all. In fact, they acknowledged and reacted to potential civilian casualties, which Superman didn't do at all. And yes, I know, The Avengers had more of an opportunity to save civilians, but my point is that there were moments on screen that showed that they were thinking about it. Even if Superman didn't have the opportunity to personally save innocent people, it's weird that it doesn't seem to be something that's crossing his mind at that moment.
It's not that we forget that he was established as a good guy already. It's that we expect an established good guy to continue to act like a good guy in such a situation. It's really weird when someone established to care about innocent lives doesn't react to dozens of buildings imploding all around him.
Yes, we are able to remember to earlier in the film and fill in the gaps and assume that he's thinking about that stuff, but the fact that he isn't reacting like a person who cares is a flaw in the filmmaking. Especially because such reactions wouldn't have been detrimental to the film, so there's no reason for the filmmakers to choose not to include them.
It wouldn't do much. But we're not talking about what would logically have the most practical outcome in that situation. We're talking about Superman's reaction. Sure, practically, in the context of the events of the film, Superman pleading for people's lives wouldn't have done anything. But it would have been a natural reaction from Superman in that situation and it would have demonstrated to the audience that both Superman and the filmmakers still care.
Ultimately, that's the problem with the last fight sequence. It's not just that Superman doesn't seem to care about the death toll around him. It's that the
doesn't seem to care. It's showing us the spectacle of this big badass fight scene, but we know from relatively recent history that there are probably people in those buildings and the movie doesn't seem to care because it's too focused on the punching. That's what makes people uncomfortable.
Realistically, people will be in the buildings, EVEN if the World Engine was initiated. But realistically, Batman wouldn't shoot through the windows of buildings, KNOWING that no one will ever go near them.
Sense we don't really see anybody in the buildings, what law states that they have to be there?
However, that is a good overall points and demonstrates the critical flaw in the battle scenes, in particular the last one.
We didn't need much, just a few moments when Supes seems to care.
Without such moments, the battle feels like it was thrown in for the heck of it, rather than resolve emotional and suspense-oriented tension.
My 2cents worth.

Second Grade ROCKS!
|Greetings to all! Let me introduce myself. My name is Mrs. Partridge. I was born and raised in Hastings, Nebraska. My mother was a teacher and told great stories about the wonderful students she worked with. My sister was also an elementary school teacher. I spent time with her students and had a chance to work with a variety of ages. That experience helped me to choose teaching as my career. After graduating from high school, I attended and graduated from the University of Nebraska Lincoln with a degree in Human Development and Elementary Education. I began teaching at Hooper Elementary after graduation. I fell in love with the students and families in this district and decided that there was no better place to teach! I am presently in my 35th year of teaching at Logan View Elementary. Each year brings a new group of wonderful students who become a part of my "school family".

The 2011 NYSC Batch 'B' Orientation commenced on the 5th of July 2011 and is expected to last until the 26th. Recent news reports have it that prospective NYSC corps members had previously besieged the NYSC National secretariat in Abuja to influence their postings away from potential trouble spots or otherwise what is now known as 'Boko Haram' states in the North. I find it hard to believe that barely 3 months after innocent youth corps members were slaughtered in some states in the North following the last Presidential elections and all the hoopla that followed, it does appear that the issue has since faded away to obscurity and in typical Nigerian fashion it's business as usual. We seem to pretend like nothing ever happened and the lives of those brave young men and women and others that were killed seems to have been forgotten reinforcing the argument that human life in our country seems to be worth very little. The truth remains that the wounds of what happened in the April elections is still fresh in the mind made worse by the lack of any purposeful action taken to bring those responsible to justice and the inability of the National Assembly or civil society to hold any form of public debate about the future of the NYSC scheme. In the light of these atrocities, why would any sane parent or relative allow their children to serve in these states where insecurity currently rules? Or are we waiting for another disaster to happen only to hear dull speeches from politicians telling us how those killed are heroes of democracy and paid the ultimate sacrifice? Well enough of that, we want our brightest young men and women to be alive to apply their skills and knowledge to the challenges that confronts us everyday as a nation.We don't want dead heroes but we want them alive to contribute to nation building.
On the flipside, when these sort of things happen I am left wondering what those whom this will affect directly are doing about it or is it a case of all man for himself and God for us all? Let me start by challenging the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) whose mandate is to represent the interest of Nigerian students and youths. When are they going to start engaging the powers that be on issues like this which is at the very heart of any interest group that claims to speak on behalf of students and youths? What have the prospective corps members done or are doing to mobilise themselves to engage their Governors and National Assembly members in their states in order to create publicity and also to give it the attention it deserves; to also ensure they were not posted to places where their lives might be in danger. Then we take a close look at the role of the media in all this; who sets the news agenda in the Nigerian media and why has this not taken a prominent news space in the editorials and columnists?
It is sad if you believe the papers that their has been intense lobbying by individuals to influence their postings to state where they desire to serve. Who is going to lobby for those without 'connections' in high places? It is high time we began to be selfless in our thoughts and actions if we are ever going to challenge the status quo in our society. In the wider context, this highlights the ignorance and lack of cohesion in the way we advocate for change in Nigeria. I am very worried going by the recent spate of bomb blasts especially in some sections of country. The whole despicable atrocities that happened after the April elections is staring us in the face if urgent steps are not taken to address the NYSC scheme. There has got to be sweeping reforms on the future of the scheme and on the interim corps members should be posted to states within their region pending the outcome of reforms. I do like the NYSC scheme and what it stands for being a product of the scheme myself but its current format and the danger it exposes our young and brightest is unsustainable.
Our country is at a crossroad and the least we could now is to engage in collective engagement to address the issues that has held us hostage in the last 50 years. If we keep speaking and acting in discordant tunes them I'm afraid our collective short memory which has become an albatross of some sort will come to haunt us later.

Something quite magical - something Midnight in Paris-esque - happens when you enter the world of Sr Duncan. Ring the bell on the unsigned door, then glide up the staircase to an art nouveau mansion replete with high ceilings, stained-glass windows and sheet music laminated to the bar. Swing jazz could be playing over the speakers, someone might be tinkling on the grand piano or a couple might be doing the tango on a dancefloor as smooth as a porteño's pick-up lines. You might think you've been transported to another era, especially when you see the food and drink prices, which are a pre-inflationary steal. As well as being a sure-fire bet for a night of beer-fuelled fun, Sr Duncan functions as a cultural centre, hosting live music, theatre and dance classes; stay in the loop via their Facebook page.

The playoff ride is about to begin again for the Bethlehem Christian Academy baseball team.
This Friday the Knights will look to take the first step toward back-to-back state crowns when they host Twiggs Academy in the opening round of the GISA Class A state playoffs. Some players, as well as the head coach, have changed since last spring, but that hasn't changed the way BCA has dominated its region. The Knights walked through their region schedule with a perfect 8-0 record, extending their undefeated mark in GISA Region 1-A to three seasons.
No team in the region really was on the same playing level with BCA. Even with one seemingly close 8-4 game with Curtis Baptist on the road, the Knights outscored their region opponent 110-4. Now that's domination.

Hot Like a Mofo [Glasscutters X Masia One Remix]
Release Date: 6/17/2014
The homegirl Rayna (aka. Ray-Z) hollered dropped this amazing remix on me as part of her new production team The GLASSCUTTERS. We are dropping this Summer tune post Ultra Music Festival June 17, 2014. Check back to this post next Tuesday for the DOWNLOAD LINK. Whoooo...time to catch that flight to Korea.
The Ladies are taking over! The GLASSCUTTERS, comprised of DJ Ry Toast and Rayna Zemel are fast up-and comers to the LA Trap / Post Electro scene. In a city hard to cut your teeth in, the duo have paired up with Canadian rapper, Masia One, to release a killer new remix of "Hot Like a Mofo." Masia is the recent winner of the VIMA SE Asia Award for Best Overal Female Act and Social Media Champion.
This collaboration marks the 3rd between producer Rayna Zemel and Masia One. The pair teamed up in 2010 when Zemel served as recording engineer on Masia's award winning LP "Bootleg Culture" and again in 2013 when Zemel remixed "Make Up" from the "Bootleg Culture Remixed EP" (Muti Music).
Killer drum sequencing and excellent use of horns make "Hot Like a Mofo" a perfect Summer booty shaking jam. This is no candy coated pop twerk, we are talking some serious Trill-ish so turn you speakers up and keep it Hot Like a Mofo!

SARANAC LAKE - BluSeed Studios Inc. welcomes Brooke Noble as its newest artist-in-residence. Noble, who returns to BluSeed's ceramic studio after two prior residencies in 2003 and 2004, will manage the studio's general operations, working with other BluSeed ceramic instructors, conducting classes, and assisting students as needed.
Noble is no stranger to the area or to BluSeed Studios. After earning a degree in fine arts at Syracuse University and her master's at Southern Illinois University, she returns to Saranac Lake to make it her permanent home.
With their thought-provoking imagery and fully functional styling, her pieces have been shown nationally at more than 53 galleries, and may currently be seen locally at Lake Placid's V Gallery. Noble has taught ceramics since 2001 and is excited to work with the local community and share her knowledge of clay.
In March, Noble will begin offering five-session workshops in tile building, unique pot decorating and variations on vessel shapes. The class will include making handmade tiles and plaster press molds, and runs five Saturdays, March 7, 14, 21, 28 and April 15, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
The fee, which includes all materials, is $160.
Students will focus on creating original tiles with a high-relief dimensional pattern and learn how to make multiple tiles using simple press molds. Participants will walk away from the class with one-of-a-kind tiles that may be used for a variety of household projects, including fireplaces, backsplashes and wall hangings.
Class size is limited to ensure individual instruction. To register or for more information, call BluSeed Studios, located at 17 Cedar St., at 891-3799 or visit www.bluseedstudios.org.

Snapshot of HOPE
Ramón Orlando Mendez, a nurse by education, now coordinates the Order of Malta and Project HOPE Clinic Program in the Dominican Republic. His Snapshot of HOPE photo essay, Encouraging Healthy Babies, concentrates on the healthy behavior of breastfeeding that is taught and modeled at the clinic.
Mothers learn about the importance of breastfeeding, including how it helps prevent respiratory infections.
Families learn that breastfed babies get sick less often and grow healthier.
To encourage breastfeeding and the benefits for the mother and baby, the 5-Star strategy was designed to encourage mothers to attend all prenatal and pediatric checkups, and to exclusively breastfeed their babies. Mothers who earn 5-Star recognition are awarded gift baskets that provide items for newborn care, but more importantly gain recognition from their peers.

We're not quite sure if it's possible for the media to humiliate itself and more than they did Tuesday night as they collectively stepped on a rake in breathless anticipation of a "big" Rachel Maddow "scoop" about President Trump's tax returns.
The White House was left fuming Tuesday night as Rachel Maddow revealed that she had obtained Donald Trump's tax returns, which he filed in conjunction with wife Melania.
In her MSNBC show, Maddow said that the 2005 document had been obtained by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist David Cay Johnston, who received it from an unknown source in his mail box.
It showed that Trump earned $253 million that year but wrote off $103 million as losses, which lowered the amount of tax he had to pay dramatically.
In response, an indignant White House told CNN: 'You know you are desperate for ratings when you're prepared to violate the law to push a story about tax returns from over a decade ago.'
The release concludes that 'it is totally illegal to steal and publish tax returns,' and fired off a parting shot about the 'dishonest media.'
Johnston told Maddow that as he had not solicited the documents, neither he nor Maddow had done anything illegal.
Maddow added that the First Amendment protected her right to report on the documents, which were the first two pages of his 2005 1040 form.
The second page was stamped 'client copy,' leading to speculation online that Trump may have leaked the documents himself to distract from the continuing investigation into his Russian ties and the GOP's swingeing Medicare cuts.
The White House claimed in its statement that Trump paid $38 million on an income of $150 million that year, in addition to sales and excise taxes and employment taxes.
Big "scoop" there kids.
BREAKING: We've got Trump tax returns. Tonight, 9pm ET. MSNBC.
— Rachel Maddow MSNBC (@maddow) March 14, 2017
So after the MSNBC moron tweeted that, the media went into hyperdrive in anticipation. "We've got him now" was the prevailing theme from the gullible out there. Here's the clown spokesboob for Hillary Clinton's failed campaign before and after:

What a dope. As they're famous for, these rake-stepping boobs all took one on the chin, but none of them will ever learn their lesson.
Now Trump's just laughing at them:
Does anybody really believe that a reporter, who nobody ever heard of, "went to his mailbox" and found my tax returns? @NBCNews FAKE NEWS!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 15, 2017
Now wait until these boobs see this news today:
More Americans approve of the job Donald Trump is doing as president and of the direction the country is headed, according to Morning Consult/POLITICO surveys conducted over the past six weeks.
The most recent poll, conducted March 9-13, found that 52 percent of Americans approve of Trump's job performance, compared with a 49 percent approval rating shortly after Inauguration Day. This month's survey found that 43 percent of respondents do not approve of the president's job performance.
When asked about the direction of the country, 46 percent of Americans said they believe the country is on the right track, up 4 points since a late January poll and up 17 points since immediately after Election Day, when just 29 percent of voters felt the same way. Still, 54 percent of voters said the country is on the wrong track, 4 percentage points lower than immediately after Trump took office.
Despite several public controversies, the two measurements have remained relatively steady, and almost all of the movement has been in Trump's direction among all voters.
Much of the gains track with positive economic indicators during his first few weeks in office, including a strong jobs report and stock market gains. The S&P 500 Index is up more than 100 points since Trump's inauguration, and on Friday the White House took a victory lap after government figures showed a gain of 235,000 jobs during his first full month in office.
The media has unleashed a relentless attack on Trump since he's been inaugurated, and he's only getting strong. Meaning his enemies will freak out even more today.

Now you're a national laughingstock with zero credibility. Good luck getting that back. This could only get better if Attorney General Sessions subpoenas the rube and her reporter pal to find out where they got the return.
Perhaps we can also have an investigation to find out why Trump paid a larger percentage of income tax in 2005 than his predecessor, a famed socialist and a failing "news" network:
They really got him. pic.twitter.com/0t945GjCGw

St Ives investors sit pretty in print as AGI's drugs look tempting St Ives
St Ives
Shares: 320p +8p
Questor says Hold
Readers who took Questor's advice last summer and bought shares in printing company St Ives at 191p last August are sitting pretty.
The company's shares had under-performed the support services market by 50pc in the previous year and, after the discovery of "serious accounting errors'', confidence had taken a further knock. It just goes to show that the greater the risk the greater the potential reward.
It seems those number crunching problems were due to miscalculation - and the resulting hit was far less than life-threatening. The happy outcome is that St Ives expects full-year results to be considerably ahead of the year before despite posting a drop in first-half profit in "extremely challenging" trading conditions.
St Ives, the country's biggest independent printer, has been struggling against over-capacity in the industry, suffered key contract losses and had difficulty in coping with the squeeze on margins in the highly competitive company annual report sector. But the response has been emminently sensible. The board has jettisoned the group's loss-making printing businesses, stepped up its sales drive and bought Service Graphics for £18.2m in a bid to boost margins and profits.
Revenue in the media products division fell by 2.9pc, while the USA saw only a modest underlying recovery in sales, reflecting similar pressures. However, the point of sale business continued to deliver strong underlying growth, supported by a maiden contribution from the Service Graphics acquisition.
There has also been a positive response to the group sales initiative, which is now generating around £12m of annualised revenues. The only cloud is continuing challenging markets, and limited visibility. On house broker ABN Amro's full-year forecasts of £28.6m pre-tax profit, the shares are trading on about 17 times earnings.
The shares are not as cheap as they were - thanks to a boost from Michael Green's Tangent's aborted bid - but the prospective dividend yield is an attractive 5.8pc. Admittedly, dividend cover is not huge but the balance sheet is in good enough shape to offer comfort as regards the payout.
AGI Therapeutics
Shares: 127½p unchanged
Questor says Buy
Executives in the drugs sector are not known for their parsimony. Despite the fact that most do not make profits, the bosses of many British biotech and pharmaceuticals companies like to spend their companies' money as if it magically grew on trees.
Not so AGI Therapeutics, which operates out of serviced offices in Dublin. With a market capitalisation of £86m, the company is not a minnow in its sector, yet it employs just eight people. Most of its work - ranging from carrying out clinical trials to analysing the data - is outsourced.
AGI's business model is also devoid of airs and graces. AGI, run by chief executive John Devane, and finance director David Kelly, both veterans of Ireland's Elan, takes established drugs and finds new uses for them. AGI has five drugs in its pipeline. Because its products have been tested in other contexts, the length of trials and costs are lower than for new chemical entities.
It has taken just two years for AGI to develop its irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) product from early trials to the verge of phase three, a milestone it announced yesterday.
AGI aims first to target specialist doctors dealing with IBS in the US and then to roll it out to general practitioners - a formula which has been used before successfully by small drugs companies with limited budgets. It will not employ a salesforce until it is much further down the line.
Not all investors are convinced by the model of reformulating existing drugs. Yet AGI's risk profile is lower than that of many small biotech and pharma companies because it is not dealing with the unknown. AGI yesterday said its annual loss narrowed from \u20AC5.2m (£3.5m) to \u20AC4.2m. It has enough cash to last for the next two years. One to watch.
Athelney Trust
Shares: 185p unchanged
Questor says Buy
Questor is not always a fan of the investment trust, but Athelney is one that sticks out. With a small company focus, and a strong track record, Athelney is an interesting investment.
Net asset value - a must comparator when looking at investment trusts - rose 20.3pc to 189.7p a share, with revenue up 12.5pc on a like-for-like basis. Given last night's share price close, that means it sits on a small discount. What is more, the trust operates as a perfect way of investing in small cap plays without having to do your own homework. Recent investments include Broker Network, Johnson Services, and Arden Partners, and the company has an emphasis on investing in those that pay a dividend. As a result, an annual divi of 3¼p is to be paid on May 25. A word of warning in the fact that Athelney is terribly small in the scheme of things - with a market value of £3.3m and a wide spread - but it is worth investigating further.
