TONY – Good morning, TNT. It's another Friday and another great day to see what happens. How do you feel today, DC?
DC – I feel wonderful, absolutely wonderful!
T – The PM spent time here from Iraq. What's going on in Iraq?
DC – First, thank-you for the kind wishes for my daughter. She's fine, with a few stitches. Thanks again
DC – Good ole Iraq had successful UN meetings and Abadi is back in Iraq. All the lawmakers have been meeting all week. All legislation has been completed and now they're just cleaning up, as they were voted to do. CBI is prepped and let some tests yesterday that a few other guru-folks mentioned pinging. We got that as well and that was best-described as a dress-rehearsal with everybody to make sure everyone is ready to go, including all central banks. Everybody was quite pleased. You don't do a dress-rehearsal months out, but just before the big reveal. We're saying everybody is ready for it around the world. Security is ready. Customs guys are ready. Banks in Iraq are ready. All major political figures have signed off on it. Merchants are ready and have been trained. On TV "economic reforms coming soon" and some saying "immediate." Banks in Baghdad are telling people where to exchange. In the morning mosques they reviewed preparations and said the UN meetings were highly successful, with a lot of back-slapping and congratulations.
T – The fact the told everybody they'd get paid at the new rate on 10/1 – how likely is that?
DC – Extremely likely. We were told not to discuss specific dates but it is very, very likely by then.
T – The Third Quarter starts on Wednesday. Last weekend I was told this would be our last weekend going thru this. It's Friday so we'll see. We have until Wednesday. We really don't have anything else to talk about.
DC – The US is absolutely prepared. Repubs and Dems, UST, Homeland is ready, everybody has been tweaking and running and redoing procedures all week. Have we been this close before? This is different because (1) you have a GOI that really wants to get this done now; (2) a lot more transparency in the past month or two; (3) a USA Admin that is highly supportive in the past month; (4) Senate and House are highly supportive to get it done; (5) all political operatives are eager to get this done.
T – We've been this close, but not with everybody in agreement. Here's another factor everybody should look at: if their goal is to take out ISIS, the first thing hit was their financing and income streams because they are paying people to fight.
DC – I want to address some idle chatter from people crapping on TNT, Tony, et.al., we try not to get into the petty stuff. If you don't like what you hear, you don't like me or Tony, or other gurus out there, stop listening to them. It's the work of idle minds and idle hands. Law enforcement is all over this. They listen to every call. They're watching us because they want to keep everything straight because of the level of intelligence and influence we have. They are worried about intel leaks. If we are doing anything bad, let law enforcement deal with it. People who conspired to take other people's money will be dealt with after the RV. Let's let law enforcement handle. And if you don't like what you hear stop listening. Let's be adults.
[18:23:24] Wei Ting & Wat Ching 4 Ka Ching! Angel: T – After it happens you will hear about the arrests, you will see who gave you the right number, procedures and times. There is a list already and we do know some of the names on the list for a fact. It is what it is. You'll see the numbers and the truth will come out in the end. Life will go on.
DC – Also, there are a lot of other gurus who have good contacts and are trying to share what they have, like all of us are. Most of us are just trying to figure it out for our fellow man. If you don't like what you hear don't call in.
[FLPatriot59] "LIVE" CALL-IN STARTING NOW….
C – Can you tell us what might be on the NDA? We're going in there blind.
DC – When we talk about the contract rate, that's the contract, or a specific group or country, has with the UST. The contract is very straight-forward. A = this rate and these requirements, B = this rate, some restrictions,
C = this rate, no restrictions. The NDA is going to be pretty simple, 4 pages telling you to be quiet and don't talk about this. The bank contract is all about the rate.
C – So what about the bank requirements to do the exchange?
DC – Are there rates based on how long you keep it there? Yes. What those are exactly we don't know. But the Chinese gov't is buying it from you so those rates will be higher, as well as the percentage you keep in the bank.
C – What about the tax situation? Will we be taxed according to our current tax bracket?
DC – That has all changed. I'm personally planning for the highest income tax I might have to pay.
T – You have federal, state and Obamacare. It could be something totally different but we don't know yet because it's not decided yet. Prepare for the worst.
C – I watched the Abadi interview with CNN. He said he doesn't think he's getting the support from the USA and coalition forces to fight ISIS.
DC – It actually ruffled a few feathers and caused some minor bureaucratic BS within the Admin when he said that. The overall strategy is still very-much up in the air. Abadi spent a lot of time with officials going over the plan face-to-face working out those issues. Abadi is indeed in charge. He's not crazy. He's building a trust with the USA and is asking the right questions. He's somebody they can work with and that helped a great deal all week. They did run a dress rehearsal yesterday and they wouldn't have done that if those talks weren't successful.
T – Abadi has come out publicly that he doesn't want ground troops. They want more air support.
DC – It's a massive mess – they are fighting with aircraft in the air from different countries, different transponders, etc. We don't do exercises with them, so it's a coordination nightmare.
C – What about meetings with the CBI?
DC – Those guys met all week separately and together. Those meetings were extremely successful. The World Bank and IMF all came over. A working relationship was very-well received.
C – Who is in charge of the CBI at this moment?
DC – It's a mess. But they've already been given the authority. It's almost like a committee-leadership now until it gets voted on.
DC – The top reason to watch for would be the group of folks in the USA trying to delay it. Their political winds, however, are very much in favor of getting this done now. If something horrendous happens, like a mosque attack or similar, you would see a delay. But everyone is leaning forward in the saddle. I don't think at this point that would happen. People are saying they won't budge off the date to get this done.
T – The date has been changing a week ahead of the date. Today is Friday and the date hasn't changed. That's significant and a big factor.
C – What does "done" mean these days?
T – It is done in the system. We've been hearing from everybody it's done, just relax. It's a timing issue. It's done because they tested the system last night again. It's done because some got paid while they were testing the system (not thousands of people, just a few). As far as a global system it's done. And payments were made this week that couldn't be paid unless it was done.
C – The CBI website hasn't been updated since 9/24. Does that mean we're in that 4-day holiday?
DC – There are 2 CBI websites (one in Baghdad and one in Houston). They can be updated within minutes. Just because it hasn't updated in several days doesn't mean anything. It's not a big deal. The servers are working well because they recently tested it. And a new site will be launched when it comes back up.
C – Has Iraq's credit rating been raised?
DC – It has and will get raised once again once the RV goes through.
C – Are the taped messages will relevant?
DC – Yes, or they can go live.
C – POTUS was speaking to the UN General Assembly this morning and mentioned a unity GOI. Was this part of the announcement?
DC – It was part of the "package" of announcements. He's telling the world know that Abadi is working well with everyone. It's very important for Iraq to come across as a mature gov't. Is this part of the RV announcement? No.
T – There won't be an announcement on the six o'clock news. But you'll see things on business channels.
C – Do you know the buy/sell of the dong?
T – Nope. $80/million on Sterling. $58 at WF.
C – A friend needed money and sold some back and only got half.
T – That happens. And next week he'll be sorry he did that.
C – Who determines when the contract rate ends?
T – There is a pool of money and when those contracts are filled and the pool is empty, the contract rates end.
C – Can one tax ID make more than one appointment?
DC – Yes, but not on the same phone call. Each call makes one appointment.
C – Does Vietnam have low-denoms to pass out?
DC – I don't have any contacts in Vietnam. I know it's loaded in the system and what the rates are, but not the specifics. It won't concern us because we're just doing an exchange. But it'll be chaos in-country if they don't.
C – How does Iraq become a member of the WTO?
DC – Iraq has already been a member since the 40's. They fell out of favor and have been in suspension mode since the Saddam days. They have been working to regain full-standing/ascension. It's basically a "good housekeeping stamp of approval" to be in full standing again. But that's not required for the revaluation.
C – When I exchange I'm concerned about turning over my dinar to a banker and waiting for him to call me the next day, fearful he might tell me it's a forgery or no good. Where's the security in that?
DC – The way we understand it is it will work just like any other currency exchange. They will verify it in front of you before sending it off. I've been told if you bought it from a reputable dealer the chance of something being wrong is infinitesimally small. Or ask for a Dela rue Machine.
T – When you go to the bank there is supposed to be a bank marshal or a third person in the room to verify the count. If you go to the teller window they have a currency book you can ask to see to verify your currency.
C – Is Dr. Shabibi back?
T – Not back in charge at the CBI, but he may be consulting with them.
C – When you call the 800# and get 20 minutes will you be able to open a new new account? Will there be enough time to open a tax account, a mother lode account, etc.?
DC – They tell you the rates and you choose the one you like. Meanwhile they set up the account while it's being counted. All in 20 minutes. You'll dump your money into an account (keep the dinar separate from other currencies) and then go back later and open tax accounts, trust accounts, etc.
T – If you need 2 accounts for multiple currencies open them before the appointment.
NOTE: Current caller is asking a very complicated divorce/co-mingling of assets/who-gets-what type of question. Because neither Tony nor DC are attorneys, nor qualified to answer that question, this Q&A will not be transcribed.
C – In the beginning of the call you said "next week" – do you mean Iraq week or US week?
T – I mean October 1, which is next week. On Oct 1 they are expecting the new rate per the GOI. Plus, the date has been moved a week ahead of time in the past and today that has not happened. We're expecting something by that time frame.
C – If it goes today when will we see it?
T – If it goes today the majority of people wouldn't see it until Monday or Tuesday. I said on Wednesday's call the best plan was over a weekend.
DC – Let's get into times and dates. Here is the original plan a while ago: Thursday night our time/Friday AM in the mosque. Make the announcement and move on. And not worry about a lot of market/Forex movement. Then, once the Forex guys got involved, they said Friday night when Forex closes or shortly thereafter, because Forex won't float until Sunday evening. Then when they added the other currencies in the mix, the slowest time in global finance is from about 8PM Saturday night USA until 6AM Sunday morning. So they said that's an ideal time for major changes. Almost all markets are closed, banks closed, etc. That's why you'll always see banks go down during those times to update. Because of other aspects, like international bank synchronization on Tuesday nights, those times were added in there. So it's evolved to weekends as the best time.
C – Is there any confirmation about the Zim?
DC – Mugabe was given paperwork to sign as an agreement for economic reform to occur if they stop the genocide. He signed it but Zimbabwe is poor and has nowhere to go but up. They are incredibly rich in resources.
T – Every time we talk about the Zim they raise the price. They want the price so high that people won't buy it.
C – When will the brokers and dealers get confirmations to stop selling?
DC – It's part of their procedures but I don't think a lot of these guys will be notified until after it happens. It will be a tight window.
C – On the last call it sounded like you said we might not get a contract rate on the dong.
T – I'm not sure the VND will rise like the dinar will for an international rate. I'm not sure people have confidence in Vietnam growing as quickly as Iraq.
C – So we should get to the bank as quickly as possible to get a contract rate?
DC – We think we know the amount in the pool but we don't know how long it will last. Caps are there to let everybody have a fair chance at the contract rate.
T – Even at the int'l rate it's a ton of money. The rate that I know of is at least 10X what it used to be. Get to the bank and get it over with.
C – I heard some banks will have you sign an additional NDA.
DC – That is a possibility if you are offered a higher rate. They don't want you blabbing.
C – If someone has significant amounts of currencies and they have an LLC with a capital funds form, should that be notarized before the RV?
DC – Yes, that's what I would do.
C – How are we protected when handing over our currency to the bank for them to verify it?
DC – You can ask for a Delarue machine. If you're that concerned about it go through every bill.
C – Is there any recourse to dispute the bank if they find you have counterfeit currency?
DC – The UST is tracking every note you have. If you bought from a reputable dealer I wouldn't worry about it.
C – Is there a Plan B still in place or has that gone away?
DC – It is floating around. Basically if we do something stupid they'll swoop in. But we've shown we're highly supportive and everyone is playing ball right now.
C – If they cut the USA out, is our currency just as good as wallpaper?
DC – If that happens, you still have an internationally-traded currency. They can't make our worthless and others valuable.
T – Here's the real question: what's the probability that Plan B will go into effect?
DC – Extremely unlikely.
C – Does the RV have anything to do with the Petro-Dollar?
DC – A petro-dollar is like an economic slang term for the world basing oil on dollars in trade. USD is the world's reserve currency and oil is traded in "petro-dollars." Oil dominates and the whole world needs it bad. The oil that everyone needs is traded in USD, or petro-dollars.
PETRODOLLAR (from Investopedia): The money earned from the sale of oil. The term "petrodollars" was coined when the price of oil rose sharply in the 1970s. It resurfaced in the new millennium, when prices rose once again. Although petrodollars initially referred primarily to money that Middle Eastern countries and members of OPEC received, the definition has broadened in recent years.
RECAP: DC – Bottom line is that everything looks wonderful. The dress rehearsal yesterday went well worldwide. Abadi is back in country and everybody is ready for this to go through and prepared across the entire world. Everything looks really good.
T – The dress rehearsal included the pinging from the CBI to the UST. Everything is in motion. There is NO bad news. We couldn't find any. We didn't give you everything, but the process is alive and well. It should've been last weekend but, if we believe anything they say, it should all be over by the 1st. If you were in charge would you wait until the last minute for this to occur? We don't understand why our own financial institutions won't give us a head's up, but we're not in charge. Have a plan of action. Don't wait. Be ready to get that call whenever it happens. If we stay ready we don't have to get ready, especially between now and Wednesday. If we hear something outstanding we'll send it out to you. Enjoy the rest of your day.
BEST LINE of entire call: "The dress rehearsal yesterday went well worldwide."
imho 😉

AUSTIN (AP) – Texas' on-time high school graduation rate has reached an all-time high, increasing 1.6 percent to 85.9 percent for the Class of 2011.
The Texas Education Agency said Friday that over 92 percent of Class of 2011's 319,588 students graduated in four years or continued high school for a fifth year.
The previous four-year graduation rate record was the Class of 2010's 84.3 percent.
The agency said 2011 was the first graduating class required to take four years of math and science. Deputy director Todd Webster said students not only met that challenge but "raised the bar."
Graduation rates for whites increased 0.4 percent to 92 percent, while 2011 Hispanic graduation rates increased 3 percent to 81.8 percent.
Black student graduation rates rose to 80.9 percent from 78.8 percent in 2010.

Chapter 10: Autumn Term/Emily and Charlie Summary
Enraged by Charlie's letter, Emily tells him (repeatedly) that he "talks a pile of crap" (Page 42). She tantalizes him with news of a secret assignment, but promises him only empty envelopes from now on. Charlie ignores her wrath, instead describing his heroic effort to save Brookfield when he inadvertently answers a phone call announcing a gas leak in the school: Charlie sounded the alarm to evacuate. Emily responds with the threatened empty envelope. Charlie calls her out on including a note declaring the envelope is empty. He is humiliated to learn the school doesn't use gas and he was the victim of a prank. His brother Brian, a cop, mocks him mercilessly for his error, and Charlie gets depressed. When he goes to the police station to make a statement to help catch...

Windows CouchDB gets over 1000 downloads a month so it's great to have a few more eyes onboard! Noah no worries about the paperwork, we need to keep things clean & tidy. Given that the 1.2.0 source release has been aborted, let's wrap this (don't mention the V-word or the R-word) & have another run at testing binaries for the next source round. I'm looking forwards to seeing 1.2.0 roll in the very near future. Thanks again! A+ Dave

Rapper Rhymefest has reunited with his estranged father after 24 years apart.
The Grammy Award winner, real name Che Smith, met Brian Tillman at the West Side homeless shelter in Chicago, Illinois last week (begs07Jan13), marking the first time he had seen his dad since he was 11.
The star, who penned Jesus Walks for Kanye West, tells local news site DNAInfo.com, "(My) friend told me what shelter my dad was staying at, and that is how I found him... It was not until I hugged him that I realized how much I missed having a dad around."
And the 54 year old was just as happy to see his son: "I immediately started hugging him, as I cried my eyes out. I had been telling people my son was a famous rapper but nobody believed me."
Smith has since tried to help his parent, who is an alcoholic, get back on his feet and seek treatment.
He adds, "I will continue to help him as long as he continues to try and help himself. I am willing to do what I can to help my father because I do love him."

Festival Offers Rare Convergence of Music's Best and Most Adventurous
By Tim Anderl
Creating an annual music festival designed to bring the world's most creative composers and artists together for never — or rarely — before seen collaborations is an undertaking of incredible magnitude. For Bryce Dessner, a former Cincinnati boy, composer and guitarist for The National, this kind of thing is par-for-course.
For the seventh consecutive year, the MusicNOW festival is a convergence of the musically adventurous performing pieces that can be heard few other places in world, let alone the country. This year's festival, which takes place March 28 to March 30 in Cincinnati, is a doozy: composers Philip Glass and Nico Muhly will be performing, as will eighth blackbird, former Westminster Abbey organist James McVinnie, Pedro Soler and Gaspar Claus, and a collaboration between Muhly, Sufjan Stevens and festival organizer/curator Dessner.
"Originally, I just had the idea of creating a snapshot of what living music is now," explained Dessner. "It is always creative music that pays attention to detail as opposed to booking super popular things. We'll have a composer, a folk singer, maybe some kind of world music thing. The thing that binds this all together is that it is music that is created with a lot of care and attention to detail."
2012's lineup maintains the festival's reputation for risk-taking and attention to detail. Those who've been among the sold out audiences in past MusicNOWs have witnessed performances from Sharon Van Etten, The National, Justin Vernon, Joanna Newsome, Andrew Bird, Toumani Diabate, Bang on a Can, Grizzly Bear, Sufjan Stevens, Glenn Kotche and Kyaw Kyaw Naing, among others.
"We don't pay anybody a whole lot of money," said Dessner. "But, we do have a lot of artists that enjoy coming back and consider this home now. They come and they workshop new music. People like Nico Muhly and Sufjan Stevens, Justin Vernon has been three times, Richard Reed Parry has been four times. So we've had luck I guess with having people enjoy it and come back.
"What's different about this year is that we have a slightly more classical concert happening [because] eighth blackbird, one of the best new contemporary music ensembles in the world, are playing, Phillip Glass is going to play and Nico Muhly, who is probably the most important young American composer, is presenting music on three different nights," said Dessner. "The first night of the festival is actually an organ concert by the organist from the Westminster Abbey. He's the same guy that played the Royal Wedding. He is doing a concert of new works on the organ. So it is going to be very diverse, and there are a bunch of other interesting things happening."
On March 28, MusicNOW will present a free organ concert at Christchurch Cathedral featuring James McVinnie formerly of Westminster Abbey in London. The organ program includes a new composition by Richard Reed Parry and a new composition from Pulitzer Prize winning composer David Lang, along with pieces by Philip Glass, Bach and Arvo Part. McVinnie will also perform Nico Muhly's O Antiphon Prelude.
Eighth blackbird, who the New York Times describes as "a dexterous sextet that balances trills and tempos" will be joined by special guest Philip Glass to perform Music in Similar Motion, and will also premiere Muhly's new, yet-to-be-titled commission. This performance takes place at Cincinnati's Memorial Hall on March 29.
Muhly, a prolific composer and collaborator, premiered two operas, Dark Sisters, a commission from the Metropolitan Opera, and Two Boys, a commission from the English National Opera, in 2011. His pop-oriented work includes collaborations with Antony and the Johnsons, Bjørk, Jonsi (Sigur Ros) and Grizzly Bear. Two new works from Muhly will be premiered at the festival — a commission for eighth blackbird and a workshop presentation of a new song cycle collaboration between Muhly, Sufjan Stevens and Dessner.
"We wrote the songs together, we all wrote music," explained Dessner about the collaboration. "Sufjan is writing words and then they'll be arranged for a large ensemble of strings that will be playing with us. I'll be playing guitar on stage, Sufjan will be playing some keyboards and singing, and Nico will be up there as well playing piano."
"They are pop songs, but they don't conform to what you might expect from a song," he added. "There are some surprising harmonies and things."
Pedro Soler also returns to the festival this year and will be joined by his son Gaspar Claus to share work from their recent, Bryce Dessner-produced recording, Barlande, an improvisation combining traditional flamenco guitar and cello.
While this type of event would monopolize most regular people's time and attention, this is merely one of the activities Dessner is currently undertaking. Not only is he actively writing for the next National record (which is expected to see the light of day in 2013), but he is also the co-founder and owner of the Brassland record label, is organizing another AIDS charity compilation (the last was the widely popular Dark was the Night), and he serves on the board of The Kitchen in New York City (where he currently resides). But for now, MusicNOW remains his temporary focus.
"This festival is so small and special," boasted Dessner. "While we could sell this out in five seconds in New York City, in Cincinnati these are really special events. I think the reason that I'm able to commit to this and do it is that it is such a small town that performers can come out and try something they wouldn't normally do in a big city. This is very much, specifically about doing it in Ohio."
(For more information about MusicNOW, which takes place in Cincinnati on Wednesday, March 28, Thursday, March 29, and Friday, March 30, visit www.musicnowfestival.org. Ticketing information for the event is available at http://www.musicnowfestival.org/tickets/ or by calling Memorial Hall's box office at 1-800-838-3006.)

Running TestFX tests in headless modeJanuary 31st, 2016
For the past few months I've been working on a JavaFX based product that has lots of bells and whistles. Last week we succeeded in setting up functional tests using TestFX. While everything was working fine on a developer's machine (see this for more information) we were experiencing trouble with our CI environment.
At first we thought it was a faulty configuration related to xvfb on the server but as it turns out xvfb was working correctly. We even ssh'ed into the server, exported the DISPLAY to a different machine and saw the test run. Kind of. The following is the basic test code that was causing us trouble:
Clicking on #optionsMenu (a button) should bring a popup menu; clicking on #preferencesActionTarget then selects an item from the popup menu. The button is placed at the top right corner of the window.
When running the test on a local machine we can clearly see the robot clicking on all items we told it to, however the execution on the server always left the pointer at the center of the window. Aha! the problem was that the mouse pointer froze completely. The Robot was unable to move it to the right point on the screen and the click on the expected element.
Searching for clues to fix this problem led us to this thread at the TestFX Google Group. The problem discussed there was of a different nature, nevertheless the thread contained a small nugget of information:
The DragAndDropBug occurs when the GlassRobot is used without Monocle. Automatic mouse movement will freeze. — Benjamin
So we had to enable Monocle on the server. As far as we can tell there's only one release of Monocle available at JCenter/Maven Central: 1.8.0_20. This version worked well for us although we're running JDK8u72. Please follow the instructions laid out here if you require another version; or point that repository to jitpack.io and let it serve the binaries for you.
Assuming you're building projects with Gradle (if not, what are you waiting for? Maven is so old school now) you only need to configure the following dependencies to have Monocle in your build
The last bit found in this file allow us to enable/disable headless mode in our tests. In this way we can use the real Glass Robot when running locally or the Monocle Robot when running on CI. Headless mode is disabled by default; it can be enabled by invoking
$ gradle -Pheadless=true test
Of course, one could tweak the build file and have the value of the headless property be set according to the current environment, that is, if the build is being executed inside the CI server or not. Once we're done with the setup the only thing left to do is update the tests so that the correct robot is used. You'll typically use a static initializer block to perform this feat, such as
And that's it. There's nothing much to it once you know what to tweak.

Note: late applications are not accepted. To avoid delay, please ensure that your complete and correct application is sent to the administrator of doctoral education well in advance of the deadline.
Credit Transfer
If you have taken a course outside KI, or if you took a course before being admitted as a PhD student, you can apply to have the credits transferred to your PhD program. You can also obtain credits for other activities, such as conference presentations, journal club and seminars. Fill in the form number 13 and attach a suitable proof (e.g. a certificate signed by the course organizer, or a conference abstract showing that you have presented a poster, or a signed statement by your supervisor that you have attended journal club X times over Y years) and send it to the Director of doctoral education.
Follow up of the individual study plan
Annual review of the individual study plan
The study plan should be followed up yearly in terms of time plan for courses and progress of research. Fill in the form named "Yearly follow-up" and send to the director of doctoral studies. Note: when approximately two years of full time training have passed or an estimated two years remain (whatever comes first), a half time review (see below) should be done instead of a regular annual review.
In case of essential deviations from the study plan this should be revised and sent to the director of doctoral studies.
Activity report
It is the doctoral student's responsibility to report on his/her activity and financial support for each semester. Send the information to the administrator of doctoral studies, who will register it in Ladok. Activities here refer to the proportion of equivalent full-time involvement that a doctoral student has devoted to his/her doctoral studies.
Course credits
Doctoral courses passed at KI are automatically entered into LADOK.
Credits for doctoral courses examined at other universities have to be transferred to KI. Fill in form 13 named "Credit and qualification report" and send it to the director of doctoral studies. Please use one form per course. The same form can be used also for other credit-bearing course components (e.g. conferences, research visits, seminar series, teaching).
Half-time seminar
When approximately half of the stipulated time has passed, every doctoral student's research project should be reviewed. To be allowed to perform the half-time review, the student must have fulfilled 7.5 credit points of basic general science courses. The student should write a short (about two pages) summary of the project. In addition, the student should present the achieved results and a plan for the future in the form of a seminar.
The half-time seminar should be planned well in advance. Contact the administrator of doctoral studies to decide on time and place.
The review committee shall consist of three persons, two could be from MBB but detached from the project and one should be from another department or university.
The application for half-time review, LADOK excerpt, suggested review committee, a literature review of the research field (normally about eight pages excluding references) and the summary as well as publications, manuscripts and copies of ethical permits should be sent to and approved by the director of doctoral studies.
The PhD-student should then distribute this material and a copy of the study plan to the members of the review committee and advertise the seminar on the department e-mail list, which should give a link to the summary.
After the seminar, the review committee should give their recommendations and suggestions, preferably written down for follow-up by the student and supervisor. The official form Half time review should also be filled in after the seminar and then handed to the administrator of doctoral studies for registration in LADOK.

text: Super fun looking site here. I love the clean and simple nav at the top, and I tend to dig the carousels that show you a little something on either side of the active image. It's a neat touch. The rest of the site has a sort of magazine layout. Everything is organized well, but each section stands out on its own. The little icons that tie back in with the logo are nice, but I think I'd like to see them carried through from the home page to their respective pages. Only having them on the home page makes them seem a bit superfluous. I like the use of gold and grey overall. It's balanced well and lets the vibrancy of the images stand out.

You cannot simply put something new into a place. You have to absorb what you see around you, what exists on the land, and then use that knowledge along with contemporary thinking to interpret what you see.
My hand is the extension of the thinking process - the creative process.
I don't believe architecture has to speak too much. It should remain silent and let nature in the guise of sunlight and wind
I would like my architecture to inspire people to use their own resources, to move into the future.
I believe that the way people live can be directed a little by architecture.
The speed of change makes you wonder what will become of architecture.
It wasn't that I had any great dream of being an architect. I just wanted to make things. Whether it was furniture, painting, interior design, or architecture. I just wanted to create something.
I think architecture becomes interesting when it has a double character, that is, when it is as simple as possible but, at the same time as complex as possible
Since I am a Japanese man who's been building through the experience of Japanese architecture, my actual designs come from Japanese architectural concepts, although they're based on Western methods and materials.
In Architecture there is a part that is the result of Logical Reasoning and a part that is created through the Senses. There is always a point where they Clash. I don't think Architecture can be created without that Collision.
All those involved in the construction of an architectural design, from the architect to the builder, have an attachment to the architecture, although it's difficult to quantify the attachment.
I like ruins because what remains is not the total design, but the clarity of thought, the naked structure, the spirit of the thing.
Without this spirit, Modernist architecture cannot fully exist. Since there is often a mismatch between the logic and the spirit of Modernism, I use architecture to reconcile the two.
When you look at Japanese traditional architecture, you have to look at Japanese culture and its relationship with nature. You can actually live in a harmonious, close contact with nature - this very unique to Japan.
Italy is full of historical buildings. And Europe holds a great history of philosophy from Greece until today. I read all those books and see these buildings, and I think of where I stand when I design my architecture.
Japanese traditional architecture is created based on these conditions. This is the reason you have a very high degree of connection between the outside and inside in architecture.
Japanese architecture is traditionally based on wooden structures that need renovating on a regular basis.
If you give people nothingness, they can ponder what can be achieved from that nothingness.
All architecture has a public nature, I believe, so I would like to make a public space.
Spiritual space is lost in gaining convenience. I saw the need to create a mixture of Japanese spiritual culture and modern western architecture.

Collection, dated 1993–2009 and undated, consisting of sound and video recordings, meeting materials, photographs, and posters for a program track at the two major gerontological societies in the United States, honoring elderly blues musicians.
2 boxes + 4 outsize folders
Donations by Suzanne Flandreau, 1993, and by John N. Migliaccio, 1994–2010.
More donations are expected from upcoming programs.
In 1993, two gerontologists and blues lovers, Michael Marcus and John Migliaccio, decided that there should be sessions at meetings of the two major gerontological societies, the American Society on Aging (ASA) and the Gerontological Society of America (GSA), to recognize elderly blues musicians and to present them and their concerns. The Bo Diddley program track was named for the major musician who was the presenter at the second session, in San Francisco, in 1994. A committee of blues fans among the gerontologists has attempted to keep the track going at one or both societies since 1993 by locating local musicians in the cities where each meeting was held and inviting them to talk at the session. Often the daytime session is followed by an evening concert in a blues club.
Materials from each year are varied, and no materials exist for some years. Sometimes the sessions are recorded by the official recording company for the meeting; sometimes the recordings are made by attendees representing the organizers of the program track; sometimes no recordings were made. After 2003, some sessions have posters printed at the primary printer for blues concert posters, Hatch Show Print in Nashville.
Musicians presented at the sessions include Sunnyland Slim, Charles Walton, Bo Diddley, Miss Lavelle White, Mama Laura Mae Gross, Earl Gaines, Roscoe Shelton, Clifford Curry, Robert "H-Bomb" Ferguson, "Weepin' Willie" Robinson, Wylie Trass, Eddie "Bluesmaster" Watson, Deacon Jones, David "Honeyboy" Edwards, Mary Lane, Tommy Brown, and Sandra Hall.

They are meant for their own purposes. If the food is sweeter than the wine, the wine will come off dry and usually quite bitter or tart. 5) High Alcohol and High (spicy) heat intensify each other – While some simply like the burning sensation with heavy spice foods, it is generally thought that high alcohol (over 13-14%) works poorly with spicy food because it heavily intensifies it. 6) Sweetness tames Hot (spicy) food – sweeter wine with moderate to low alcohol will tame the spicy nature of some foods to allow more complexity to come from the food. 7) Acid and acid work together – the best way to combat high acid foods is with a high acid wine. Acid is not cumulative so it keeps them in a parallel calabrating your palate to find the intricacies in both. In the wine it is also more cleansing. 8) Acid cuts through oily, creamy and greasy food – A high acid wine will cut through oily, creamy and greasy food causing the food to come off somewhat lighter. It does not do much for the wine, but allows more pleasure with the food. 9) Vinegar is bad!!! – there is no wine that will ever pair well with vinegar. If enjoying a salad with heavy vinaigrettes then it is likely wine will be a poor choice. It will make the wine come across like vinegar. 10) Match weight with weight and intensity with intensity – Often heavier foods require heavier wines, otherwise the wine will get lost from the power of the food. The same is true the other way around. This is also the case with flavor intensity. Intense flavored foods and wine create palate fatigue so delicate natured foods and wines will lose their ability to shine.

This has never been my experience. I've seen waiting rooms full of people with no one uttering a sound. In restaurants, people keep to themselves or talk only to the people they came in with. The only time this is different is when a beautiful female is about and one dumb, horny dude babbles on in the hopes of vomiting up just the right words that will unlock her panties. But, even horny dudes have some logic or reason for spewing a bunch of BS.
Again, I'm not talking about people with genuine questions and statements (asking directions or a quick complaint about the weather...). I'm talking about one woman that actually told me that it was raining because the clouds overhead were full of water. I mean, come on! What person with a fully functional brain would say that!? This isn't a stupid statement like when someone informed me that the sky is blue due to the ocean's reflection upon it - that is mistaken information. Claiming that clouds are full of water is an egregious statement of the obvious on a level that doesn't even register as stupid. People just don't say things like that if their brain is functioning properly. It is obvious to me that her brain filter has been damaged in some way.

Look, this may come off as insulting, but I'm dead serious. More and more people aren't able to stop the flow of trivial and downright meaningless thoughts from vomiting out of their mouth. I believe I've mentioned this before, but it's so prevalent now that I can't ignore it any longer.
I can't go anywhere without total strangers talking to me as if we were lifelong buddies, and what they have to say has no conversation value whatsoever.
Yes, I'm calling them stupid and utterly boring, but is it possible that these people are suffering from some kind of brain malfunction? We talk here about genetically altered food and about chemicals being sprayed via the contrails of planes. Are we being poisoned? Are we devolving as a species?
Something is going on. All of my life I've witnessed stupid people being very quiet because they were at least smart enough to know that were stupid. Now it's a matter of fewer and fewer people are using their brain filters to weed out the interesting thoughts against the uninteresting - just open mouth and puke up a bunch of stinking nonsense, all day, everyday.
I'll say it again: Something is wrong!

In the 1950s and beyond, public telephone booths were commonly found at small retail outlets, especially in Italy's smaller towns. The grocer would slice up some mortadella, wrap up a tin of sardines, and in the meantime customers could make a call and pay depending on how many units they used. This photo was taken at a grocer's in the country near Vercelli in 1959, the year that STIPEL (the phone company with the concession for the Piedmont and Lombardy regions) celebrated its one millionth telephone subscriber. In the countryside in this part of the country, telephone subscribers in even the most isolated farmhouses had access to modern exchanges equipped with the direct-dial compatible Siemens CRM system.

I bought Sally Hansen Insta-Dri as a quick replacement for my beloved Poshe top coat. It's not bad, but not as good as Poshe or Seche.
On the bright side:
- quickens the drying process
- adds shine to the polish
- easily available in all drugstores
- not cheap but affordable
- does not work as quickly as Poshe or Seche
- the top coat is not as shiny as the one left by those mentioned above

Nursing home, hospital admissions for Parkinson's patients on the rise
The number of patients with Parkinson's disease who need long-term skilled nursing care upon hospital discharge is increasing at a "troubling" rate, according to new research out of Ireland.
Researchers examined hospital discharges of Parkinson's patients between 2009 and 2012 to determine why they were admitted, and what setting they were discharged to. The majority of patients included in the study were admitted due to acute lower respiratory infection, urinary system disorders, pneumonia and femur fractures.
Over that time period, researchers also noted a "steady rise" in hospital admissions among Parkinson's patients over age 65, according to a release published on Tuesday. The in-hospital mortality rate for those patients was 8%, higher than the rate of patients the same age without Parkinson's disease.
But even "more troubling" than the increase in hospitalizations was the "stark increase" in Parkinson's patients requiring long-term nursing home care upon hospital discharge, researchers noted. Twenty-seven percent of patients over age 65 were discharged to a nursing home following their hospital stay, compared to 12% that were admitted from a skilled nursing facility.
The research team, from the School of Public Health, Physiotherapy and Sports Science at University College Dublin, say their findings should be used to create targeted interventions that help prevent the conditions that most often cause hospital admissions in order to reduce inpatient stays and keep patients with Parkinson's in their own communities.
"Currently care delivered is disjointed and it is this fragmented approach that allows individuals to become seriously ill and require hospital admission," said study co-author Catherine Blake, Ph.D. "Integrated care pathways for community-dwelling adults with chronic neurological diseases, not just [Parkinson's disease], should form the bedrock for health and wellness in this population going forward."
The study's findings appear in the Journal of Parkinson's Disease.
