SUNY Potsdam faculty, students and international experts join in Human Rights Day celebration [1]
On Thursday, December 3, SUNY Potsdam will host a celebration of International Human Rights Day.

Our celebration will feature several presentations by SUNY Potsdam students and faculty as well as external experts from around the world. The events will take place in the Fireside Lounge of SUNY Potsdam's Barrington Student Union, located at Barrington Drive. All events are free and open to the public. The day will kick off at 9 a.m. with students' presentations, readings and performances of three different classes (Dr. Phil Neisser's Political Ideas, Dr. Liliana Trevizan's Latin American Cultures and Dr. Oscar Sarmiento's Languages, Cultures and Differences). At 11 a.m., Assistant Professor of Anthropology Dr. Carolyn Schwarz, will give a talk on Indigenous Rights in Australia. Dr. Schwarz will discuss how Aboriginal people are struggling with two opposing identities being both culturally distinct "indigenous citizens" and assimilated Australians mainstreamed into society as "ordinary citizens." At 12:15 p.m., Eric Stener Carlson, author of "The Pear Tree: Is Torture Ever Justified?" joins the celebration via audio conference from Thailand to present his insights on torture and other severe human rights violations such as mass rape and disappearances. He has worked many years with international organizations and will share first-hand experiences. Between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m., students of Dr. Suzanne Zwingel's course on International Human Rights will present posters of current human rights issues. Topics include the human rights of prisoners, human trafficking, military prostitution, capital punishment, the right to health, human rights and the Internet, trade agreements and human rights violations, genocide and sexual violence in wartimes. The day concludes with a 7 p.m. lecture by Dr. Regina Kreide, philosophy, University of Giessen/ New School for Social Research titled, "Is Poverty a Human Rights Violation?" Dr. Kreide will discuss the meaning of social human rights, the obligations these rights imply and if affluent citizens in industrialized countries have a duty to stop the misery of the poor. This event is supported by SUNY Potsdam's Departments of Politics and Philosophy, the Political Student Association, the Crumb Library and the Human Rights Institute of the University of Connecticut.

The Good News
Everything we do as a church, and the reason we exist in the first place, is because of God's gift of forgiveness through his son Jesus. More than anything else, we want you to know that God loves you and has a plan for your life!
Many spend their lives trying to earn God's approval by following rules, attending religious services, or being a good person; the truth is that the only way to a fulfilling life and an eternal future in heaven is through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
We all need God's forgiveness.
Everyone has sinned and needs God's forgiveness. The bible says that "... all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23)
That forgiveness is found through Jesus alone. The bible says that "In Him, we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace". (Ephesians 1:7)
God's forgiveness is available to everyone.
"For God so loved the world, that He have His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16)
His forgiveness is available, but it is not automatic. Jesus tells us in Matthew 7:21 that "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the kingdom of heaven...".
It is impossible to get to heaven on our own.
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9)
So how can a sinful person have eternal life and enter heaven?
We must turn (or repent).
Turn away from your sin and your self. "Unless you repent, you will all perish as well." (Luke 13:3)
Turn to Jesus alone as your Lord and Savior. "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)
Here is the greatest news of all!
"If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9)
What happens if a person is willing to repent of their sins and confess Jesus as their Lord and Savior?
Heaven is a place where we will live with God forever. Jesus said, "If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come back and receive you to myself, so that where I am you may be also.". (John 14:3)
Eternal life begins NOW with Jesus. Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life and have it in abundance.". (John 10:10)
How can a person have God's forgiveness, eternal life, and heaven? By trusting Jesus as Lord and Savior.
Understanding what you have just read, would you like to receive this forgiveness by trusting Jesus as your Lord and Savior?
If your answer is yes, pray to Him now. The prayer doesn't have to be exactly like this. It is just a guideline. The most important part of this prayer is that it comes from your heart.
Dear Lord Jesus,
I believe that you died on the cross for my sins and arose from the grave. I now ask you to forgive me of my sins and save my soul. Amen.
If you just trusted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, congratulations! You just made the most important decision of your eternity! God's plan and desire for each of us as Christ followers is to grow in our journey of faith. We grow in our faith by: 1) reading the Bible, 2) praying, and 3) enjoying fellowship with other believers. Fellowship is found in a local church and we would love to be that church.

From Wisconsin, USA:
I am 14 years old, and I was just diagnosed with diabetes a month ago. After spending a week in the hospital, I felt that I had a pretty good control on my diabetes. However, when I went back to school, I encountered a whole bunch of problems.
First of all, when I got out of the hospital, I wanted to go back to school right away and get caught up. I had been feeling very very sick for a few months and had missed homework during that time, as well as the time when I was in the hospital. The problem was that the school wouldn't let me. Well, they didn't exactly say, "you can't come", but they insisted that I take another week off. I know that they were trying to be helpful, still it made me feel as if they thought that I was inferior. When I did return to school, I had problems on both ends of the spectrum, some teachers were overly concerned, and others wouldn't let me do necessary things, like go to the nurse to test my blood sugar.
That is another thing. They made me keep my glucose meter and supplies in the nurse's office. My school is fairly large, and when I feel low, the long walk to the nurse's office is difficult, and by the time I get there, my blood sugar can be as low as 21 mg/dl [1.2 mmol/L]. One of my teachers seems to blame me for having diabetes. If I miss some of his class because of a low or high blood sugar, he says that it is my fault, because of what I have eaten, even though my endocrinologist has discovered that most of my low blood sugar reactions are because of the fact that my pancreas is putting out insulin a few hours after I eat (a sort of delayed reaction).
This teacher sometimes won't let me leave to go to the nurse, especially if I have to go two days in a row. He also won't let me make up some of the work I miss. He doesn't allow snacks in class, and once when I felt that I was having a low blood sugar in his class and didn't want to ask to go to the nurse, he saw me eating a few pieces of candy. He kept me after class during my lunch hour, and since I use NPH in the morning, I suffered from another reaction. He wouldn't let me leave because he thought I was lying, and I ended up having to walk out of the classroom. That, of course, resulted in a visit to the principal, who also was unsympathetic, saying my condition was no excuse to disobey teachers and break the rules. There is also a problem with the nurse taking lunch breaks at unpredictable times, preventing me from access to my supplies. Once, the nurse left early, and locked up the office so I couldn't pick up my stuff after school. I ended up having to track down a janitor with a master key to get to my stuff. The nurse also seems to be very uneducated about diabetes: on my first day back, she insisted that my blood sugar of 137 mg/dl [7.6 mmol/L] was too low, and told me that I had to eat something, or she would have to call an ambulance so they could "put sugar into you through an IV". I ended up giving in and having a few pieces of candy, and the next day bringing in some literature for her to read.
Some of my teachers also seem to be to concerned. They are constantly looking at me during class, and one even repetitively asks how I am feeling during the middle of a lecture. The whole class gets to hear that I am still feeling fine. It's pretty embarrassing. Once, when a teacher of mine saw me eating some M&Ms that I work into my lunch every Wednesday as a special treat, she made me go down to the nurse, and told her about my "bad behavior". The nurse then made me call my parents and say that I was sorry that I had misbehaved in managing my disease, and that I understood how important health was and I would never cheat on my diet again. My mom was totally confused, knowing that I worked those M&Ms into my diet, and it was perfectly fine. Neither the teacher or the nurse would listen to my explanation that I was doing what I was supposed to.
My last complaint about my school is that there is not enough time at lunch. We have a 25 minute lunch, but by the time I go down to the nurse to check my blood sugar, and go to my locker, and walk to the cafeteria I hardly have any time to finish my lunch. Then on top of that, I have to leave a few minutes early to get to my class on the other side of the school. We aren't allowed to eat in the hallways, so I can't eat on my way to lunch or to my class. When I have not been able to finish, I'm not allowed to stay a little longer to eat, either. I have suffered a low blood sugar reaction a few times because of this.
I am inquiring as to whether the school had the right to do any of these things, and what I can do about it. When I asked my dad about one of those 504 plans, he said that I could deal with my diabetes and my school without getting the law involved or something, and he seemed very against it. I'm at a loss of what to do from this point.
First of all, congratulations -- It sounds like you have a good grip on your diabetes self-management! However, no one at school seems to have a clue, but please note that it is not uncommon for school personnel to doubt teens and to think they are trying to manipulate. That is why it is extremely important for you to have a 504 Plan in place to protect you, the school, and your parents. One way or another, your school needs to educated so that your needs can be met, and you can fully participate in all school activities. This is required by law. Some of the situations you describe are indeed dangerous and need to be taken care of immediately. I have several suggestions:
- Talk with someone on your diabetes team about your concerns. Perhaps your nurse or social worker can assist you in dealing with your parents and school personnel.
- You should also contact local chapters of the American Diabetes Association and Juvenile Diabetes Foundation to see if someone from one of these organizations can help.
- Enlist the assistance of the school nurse to set up a meeting with you, your parents, appropriate school personnel, and hopefully someone from your diabetes team, to devise a 504 plan.
- Utilize materials from this website including: The Law, Schools, and Your Child with Diabetes and Diabetes Management at School to help.
- Print out your question and my answer for your parents to see (at least my answer). You can't do this alone, and you do need your parents' help. It is important that you share your concerns with them.
I hope you continue to do well with your diabetes. Be sure to visit our teen Chat Rooms to compare notes with others in similar situations.

Pregnancy Detection Kits Market show exponential growth by 2024
Transparency Market Research - Thursday, October 12, 2017.
Global Pregnancy Detection Kits Market: Overview
Pregnancy test kits are used for an early indication of pregnancy. Home pregnancy tests are easy to use, inexpensive, and provide results in a few minutes. Most at-home pregnancy test provide 97% to 99% accurate results when used as per instructions.
Request Sample Copy of the Report@
A urine pregnancy kit is used to detect human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone, a special hormone that is produced only in a pregnant woman's body. hCG production increases in the early days of pregnancy with its level doubling every 2 to 3 days in the blood. The presence of hCG above a particular range confirms pregnancy.
The global pregnancy detection kits can be divided by product type, end-user, type of test, and region.
The publication on the global pregnancy detection kits market makes for an interesting read due to its many offerings. This includes projections of the various segments and sub-segments based on their past and current performance. With the help of standard industry tools such as SWOT analysis and Porter's Five Forces, the report provides a value chain analysis and market attractiveness analysis until the end of the forecast perioid in 2024.
Global Pregnancy Detection Kits Market: Trends and Opportunities
Increasing awareness about the availability of pregnancy detection kits, rising awareness about the utilization of self-detecting pregnancy kits and their benefits, and the increasing demand for self-detecting pregnancy kits are the major factors boosting the global market for pregnancy detection kits. Moreover, the rising adolescent pregnancy rate, promotional campaigns undertaken by manufacturers that engage celebrities to influence rural population for the utilization of pregnancy testing devices, technological advancements in pregnancy kits, and expansion of distribution network of product manufacturers for widespread availability of kits.
However, high cost of pregnancy detection kits, which makes it unaffordable in undeveloped and developing countries is a major constraint to the market's growth. In addition, the chances of inaccurate test result is also hampering the market's growth.
Global Pregnancy Detection Kits Market: Regional Outlook
The report broadly divides the global pregnancy detection kits market into: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. Of these, North America is the largest market for pregnancy detection kits due to high government spending for quality healthcare and increased awareness for the utilization of pregnancy detection devices. The region is followed by Europe due to the high adoption of digital pregnancy test kits along with rising disposable incomes.
Asia Pacific is expected to emerge as a significant regional market due to the rising adoption of pregnancy detection kits in rural areas, increasing awareness about the benefits of early detection of pregnancy, growing population, and rising disposable income.
Latin America is emerging as a significant regional market due to the increasing awareness about the benefits of early detection of pregnancy and the availability of pregnancy testing kits at affordable prices. The Middle East and Africa regional segment will display a sluggish growth due to low awareness about the usage of pregnancy testing kit and its associated benefits.

Long Shorts, Short Top
The Long Short is a strange beast. Part board short, part culottes, part trousers. They are the kind of piece that seems hard to wear but actually you will find them so comfortable and that they go with loads of pieces you already had. I love them with a chunky knit or a sweatshirt, but they also work well with shirt or a cropped jersey top. They also work really well as evening wear. To me it's a very grown up look not a trend, I've had one pair for ten years and still wear them.

Federal Court Orders Teen Access to Morning After Pill
- By admin aapc
- In Industry News
- March 30, 2009
- No Comments
A federal court ordered the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), March 16, to expand access to emergency contraception (also known as Plan B or the "morning after" pill).
The decision, National Partnership for Women & Families reports, requires the FDA to make Plan B available within 30 days without a prescription to women 17 and older. It also calls on the FDA to reconsider whether to approve Plan B for over-the-counter (OTC) status without age restrictions.
The ruling comes in response to a lawsuit filed by the Center for Reproductive Rights against the FDA.
The FDA approved Plan B OTC access for women 18 and older in 2006, but kept the prescription requirement for those 17 and under.
Plan B contains one of the same active ingredients found in ordinary prescription birth control pills but at a much higher dose, and it is taken in a different way. Like ordinary birth control pills, Plan B is currently available to all women as a prescription drug.

A non-endorsement statement must be on placed on materials to distribute indicating that this is not a school sponsored activity and the School District of Onalaska does not necessarily endorse this program/activity.
*Effective January 1, 2013, materials will not be distributed but placed on the district website for parents/students and staff to view. You'll find approved materials at "Parents/Students", then select "Activities by Outside Agencies" and then locate the named flyer/agency and if applicable, date of the event.

Volunteer Service Form
Click here to download the Volunteer Service Form.Complete the form and take to the school in which you wish to volunteer for the building Administrator to sign.
At the October 20, 2003 school board meeting, the Onalaska Board of Education enacted a new district policy requiring criminal background checks for people who want to volunteer in our schools. The purpose of this policy is to ensure the safety of our children when they are working with volunteers in the classrooms and in our schools. The policy outlines a volunteer application process that includes a written application to become a volunteer and a release statement that gives the district permission to conduct the criminal background check on the applicant.
Volunteers are very beneficial to our schools' culture and success.

Besides the specifics of Elephant Jokes name, recording minutia, cast of characters there is nothing that essentially differentiates it from any other album recorded under any of Robert Pollards recent monikers. For a yellow dog devotee, this probably isnt a problem. But for everyone else, its really boring, and over the last few years really since the demise of Guided by Voices Pollard has quickly been confining himself to the ghetto of pleasing the fanatics, trying to satisfy those that love him uncritically while everyone else who merely likes, or enjoys, or gets something out of his works gets diminishing returns. The sheer volume of releases is itself a problem. Few people have either the money or time or intellect to take in his entire output. Its fatiguing just thinking about it, and the question Pollard really should start asking himself is Who am I making music for?
Now, artists do not need to reinvent themselves at every turn. Pollard doesnt have to start borrowing from Eastern Europe or Africa to stay current. But each album thats pretty much the same as the last, released within weeks or months of each other, doesnt give the audience much room to recharge, to feel like a new album is actually needed. It takes on the pallor of routine. The daily news, morning ablutions, another Pollard album. Ho-hum. It doesnt have to be an event. Fanfare isnt necessary, but an album has to mean something. Just another to add to an infinite pattern leaves Pollard on a continually level ground. It dilutes his aesthetic.
The thing is, this isnt a bad album. But it is so full of mediocre songs as are most of the albums since the end of GBV that one has to ask why he just didnt save up all the great ones and make one really excellent album. Its baffling, really. Few artists are genius enough that everything they makes deserves to be packaged for public consumption, and while Pollard certainly is a good songwriter, hes not a genius, and hes certainly not a good editor. Hes either a narcissist or hes stuck in his head or hes just not paying attention because otherwise, this deluge makes little sense.
All this works to make his music academic. Scholars publish papers because university culture says to get tenure, one has to have a deep body of work. That doesnt mean the world needs another paper on Plato or Shakespeare, but the academic machine better keep churning them out anyway. Elephant Jokes is just another paper on Aristotles Metaphysics: maybe theres an interesting insight, but its buried under so much tedium that it gets lost.

Revised July 24, 2014
A. General Policy
The Program in Molecular Genetics and Genomics is based on an interdisciplinary curriculum that leads to the PhD degree. The major goal of the program is to train students for independent research and teaching in the fields of molecular and cellular biology or computational analysis in biomedical sciences. The program faculty have departmental affiliations in all of the basic science departments and several clinical departments of the Medical School, and departments on the Reynolda Campus. It is the intent of the Program in Molecular Genetics and Genomics to provide specialized training in the interdisciplinary field of Molecular Genetics and Genomics, while integrating student training as much as possible with corresponding departmental graduate programs.
B. RecruitingThe program accepts students directly from the Molecular & Cellular Biosciences (MCB) track, after the first year. Since many of the Molecular Genetics & Genomics faculty have appointments in other departments or programs, students can decide, after discussion with their faculty adviser, which program best suits their interests.C. Course RequirementsThe majority of the required courses for the Program are fulfilled in the first-year MCB curriculum. A total of four (4) elective courses are required, three of which are usually completed in the first-year MCB curriculum. Therefore, one additional elective is required during the second or third years. This elective course should facilitate specialized training of the student in consultation with their thesis advisor and advisory committee (described below). Additional electives may also be recommended by a student's advisor.
A journal club format course, Tutorials in Molecular Biology, is required during the Fall and Spring semesters for all second and third year students. This course focuses on new and important aspects of research in genetics, genomics, and molecular and cellular biology, with an emphasis on current literature. Each semester the course centers on specific themes, chosen by the faculty course director and the students. Students prepare a journal club presentation for each article, including an introduction with relevant background material, a critical review of the methods and results, and discussion points for the group.
D. Laboratory RotationsAs part of the MCB track, all students will rotate through three laboratories during their first year. Prior to selecting a dissertation laboratory, we encourage students to consult with members of the Molecular Genetics and Genomics Program faculty concerning ongoing research projects. The policies on the choice of research area for a student are guided by the principle that both the student and advisor should be in a position to make a well-informed choice before any decisions are made. Furthermore, to provide an optimal graduate training experience, the advisor must have adequate time, resources, and funding to devote to each student. For this reason, only certain laboratories may be available for students to do their dissertation research at any given time. These policies are essential to insure that adequate supplies and equipment are available for the research project. E. Grade RequirementsMinimum grade requirements for Molecular Genetics and Genomics are governed by these guidelines and the policies of the Graduate School, as stated in the Bulletin of the Wake Forest University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. A student whose cumulative grade point average (GPA) falls below 2.5 will be placed on academic probation. The student will have one semester to bring his/her GPA to 2.5 or greater; otherwise, the student may be dismissed from the Graduate School by the dean. The grade point average is obtained by dividing the total number of hours attempted for a grade, including hours for courses in which the grade is F. Thesis credit does not enter into the GPA. A student may be dismissed from the Graduate School by the dean upon recommendation by the program if he or she does not make adequate progress in research. Students must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 at the time of the preliminary examination. The full description of grading policy of the Graduate School is found in the current bulletin.
F. Seminars and SymposiaAttendance at seminars is strongly encouraged to broaden the educational experience of graduate students. Students are expected to attend the seminar series sponsored by the home department of their dissertation advisor and the Molecular Genetics and Genomics Program. Each Molecular Genetics and Genomics graduate student will present his/her research once each year in the Molecular Genetics and Genomics Seminar Series.
G. Research Advisory CommitteeDuring the fall semester of the second year, an Advisory Committee is selected for each student. The committee is selected by the student and the faculty research advisor, and is composed of five (5) Graduate School faculty, including the faculty advisor. The Chairman of this committee must be from outside the department of the primary appointment of the faculty advisor. If the faculty advisor has not yet had a student graduate from their laboratory, it is recommended that at least one member be a senior faculty member, who can advise on procedural aspects of the Program. The functions of the committee are to advise the student on the course of his/her research, to administer the Candidacy Examination, and to form the nucleus of the Dissertation Defense Committee. The Committee for each student should meet once each academic year, and more often when necessary. The purpose of the meetings is to evaluate the progress being made in the student's research and to make recommendations for the immediate future. The meetings should be scheduled by the Research Advisor to ensure that they occur in a timely fashion.
H. Candidacy RequirementsEach student must fulfill the following requirements for admission to candidacy in the PhD program in Molecular Genetics and Genomics: 1) pass the MCB required core courses with final grades of B or better (the cumulative GPA must be at least 3.0); 2) pass four (4) approved elective courses; and 3) pass an oral defense of a written research proposal.If a student does not pass a required course with a grade of "B" or better, the student may be allowed to retake the course or only the necessary exam, or exams, in that course (the next time the course is offered) that led to the low grade. Other forms of remediation may be required by the Advisory Committee or the Director of the Program. All forms of remediation must be completed before the student is admitted to candidacy. A failure to pass the re-examination of the course or any portion of the course with a grade of at least a "B" will be grounds for dismissal from the PhD program.
I. Oral Research Proposal DefenseThe examination committee for the preliminary examination will consist of the members of the student's Advisory Committee. The function of the committee is to determine acceptability of the student for advancement to degree candidacy, by critically evaluating the scientific quality of the project, the clarity of the written proposal, the completeness of the literature survey, and the student's originality and understanding of relevant biochemical concepts. The date of the oral exam (targeted for early Fall of the student's third year) will determine when all other deadlines fall. The examining committee may revise the schedule suggested below at their discretion. The deadlines should be explicitly communicated to the student. Eight weeks prior to the date of the oral exam, the student will submit an outline of the proposal. One week later, the examining committee will meet briefly with the student to discuss the acceptability of the outline and to make suggestions. The purpose of this meeting is to guide the student in preparing for the oral examination. It is appropriate to give examples of the issues that will be raised. However, detailed questioning and defense of the proposal should be reserved for the oral examination. If there are no major problems, the student may proceed to complete the written proposal. Two weeks before the oral exam, the student will submit the completed written proposal to the committee. Within 1 week, the committee chair will poll the committee and inform the student if the written proposal is acceptable for oral defense. If not, the committee will provide a detailed written critique and set a date for receipt of a revised proposal, usually within 2-3 weeks. If the revised proposal is unacceptable, the examining committee will discuss with the Molecular Genetics and Genomics Program Director and the Dean of the Graduate School whether the student should be terminated from the PhD Program. If the proposal is judged acceptable, the oral exam will proceed as scheduled. Following the exam, a decision on acceptability of the student for admission to degree candidacy will be made by the committee. In the event that a student does not pass the oral exam, the examining committee can recommend that the student be refused admission to candidacy for the PhD program, or that reexamination be allowed no earlier than six months from the date of the first exam. A student may be reexamined only once. If the committee does not recommend the student for advancement to PhD candidacy, the student may, at the discretion of the faculty, have the option to complete the MS degree program. The chair of the committee will inform the Graduate Program Director and the Dean of the Graduate School of the outcome of the preliminary exam.
Format: The outline should consist of a two-page (single-spaced) overview of the project, and include the following sections:
The final proposal should be patterned after NIH R01 guidelines, with a maximum of 13 single-spaced pages (one page for the Specific Aims, 12 pages for the Research Plan). The student should consult with his/her examining committee on questions of format during the preparation of the proposal. Typing width should be no smaller than 15 characters per inch and type height should be consistent with NIH form 398 guidelines. The final proposal should consist of the following sections.
J. Dissertation Defense: Thesis and Thesis DefenseWhen the student and advisor agree that the student is approaching the completion of his/her studies, a committee meeting will be called. At that meeting, the student will outline his/her trajectory for completion of experimental work and writing of the thesis. This will include an outline of experiments to be completed and a tentative timetable. It may be helpful to set a target graduation date, since that date will determine other deadlines. These plans will be discussed and may be modified at the committee meeting. When the student and committee have agreed on a plan, the student will proceed to execute that plan. Additional meetings may be called to modify this plan if problems are encountered or the work does not proceed as anticipated. When the student is ready to write the dissertation, a final committee meeting may be called to discuss this decision. With the approval of the advisor and committee, the student will set a date for the final thesis seminar. This final seminar is required of all students, and is intended to serve as the final thesis defense (see below). When feasible, this seminar may be scheduled in the existing student seminar series.
Four (4) weeks prior to the date set for the final thesis seminar, the student will submit the written dissertation to the Dean of the Graduate School. Three (3) weeks prior to the date set for the final thesis seminar, the student will distribute copies of the written dissertation to members of the committee. 10 days prior to the date set for the final thesis seminar, the committee chair will poll the committee to determine the acceptability of the thesis for the defense. If the committee members are not in unanimous agreement, the committee will determine if the defense should take place, which will be decided by a majority vote. If the committee votes that the thesis is not acceptable for defense, the committee chair will communicate this to the student. The student will be given a specific deadline for the submission of the revised dissertation and a detailed list of deficiencies. The student will prepare and submit a revised dissertation that addresses these deficiencies. The committee chair will again poll the committee to determine the acceptability of the revised thesis for defense. If a majority of the committee vote that the revision is unacceptable, the student will be dismissed.If agreement is reached that the thesis is ready to defend and the written document is approved by the committee, then the oral defense will consist of a final seminar of approximately one hour followed by audience questions. Criteria for a successful defense are as follows: a) approval of the written thesis by the committee, pending minor revisions, prior to the oral seminar/defense; b) satisfactory presentation of his/her research and responses to questions during the seminar. A decision concerning whether the student has met these criteria will be rendered by the committee at a brief meeting following the seminar and will be communicated to the student immediately.If any member of the committee judges that the student did not perform adequately at the oral seminar, then the meeting following the seminar may be extended to allow a full oral exam administered in closed session by the thesis committee. Outcomes of the exam are unconditional pass, pass upon rectifying deficiencies, and fail. As described in the Graduate Bulletin, a decision to fail the student will require a failing vote by more than one member of the committee. Procedures for resubmission of the thesis will be as described in the Graduate Bulletin. At least three (3) members of the dissertation committee will be drawn from the original committee. If the resubmitted dissertation fails to meet all requirements, the student will be dismissed.

Know something about this song or lyrics? Add it to our wiki.
Doubt and disbelief are the luxuries of the ignorant. Placebo mockery intended to discredit. No longer has meaning. Drifting closer, taking shape, through the mists, tragedy rides forth. The last laugh is mine. Man has made the neo-god. Man has made the neo-god. Unholy falseness infests. The final day is upon us. How much further can things continue when transgressors claim to be the victims. Unresponsible for the lives they destroy. Bitterness. A selfish focus. The special interest flight only compounds havoc. The holistic picture stays unviewed and worsens. It is the reason violators live while innocents are terminated. Prophecies unfold as the horrors close in around this world.

Chuck Hagel's uneven performance during the first round of questioning before the Senate Armed Services Committee has raised questions about his nomination's viability. His answers, often stumbling and confused, have raised more questions about his fitness to run the Defense Department. While Democrats have enough votes in the Senate to confirm him, Hagel's testimony puts pressure on a particular block of Democrat Senators; those running for reelection in 2014.
Democrats face another challenging political landscape next year. They will be defended 20 seats against the GOP's 13 seats. Almost all of the GOP seats are in safe states for the party. Democrats, however, will be defending many deeply-red states. The incumbents running in these states last won election during Obama's wave election in 2008. They are unlikely to again face such a favorable political climate. Some of Hagel's answers under questioning today could pose a real liability.
Most troubling, perhaps, was the line of questions from TX Sen. Ted Cruz. First, Cruz effectively pointed out that Hagel had not yet provided the committee with full disclosure of his finances. He appears to have investments with several companies who work with the Defense Department. A full review of these may reveal potential conflicts of interest.
Cruz then turned to something far more damaging. Cruz played clips from an interview Hagel gave to Al-Jazeera television. In the clips, Hagel seemed to agree with observations that Israel had committed war crimes and that the US was the world's biggest bully. Under questioning, Hagel tried to explain that he wasn't agreeing with the comments, per se, but simply acknowledging the observations.
Hagel's explanations were unconvincing. Moreover, the clips betray how radical some of Hagel's views are. As the hearings continue, the full range of his worldview will become more clear. It is not a view that gives comfort at a time of global uncertainty and instability.
Democrats will be running for reelection in deeply red states like Louisiana, Arkansas, Alaska, South Dakota, Montana, and North Carolina. Sen. Mark Warner will seek reelection in Virginia, a state dependent to a degree on a strong military. Hagel is widely expected to manage a sharp decline in the Defense budget, which would hit the state hard.
Confirmation hearings generally provide nominees the opportunity to weave together a reasonable narrative about their expected performance. Hagel, so far, has failed at that. If he doesn't rebound in future rounds of questioning, he may prove a nomination too far for potentially vulnerable Democrats. 2014 may seem a long way off, but it is the first thing on the minds of these Democrats. They may provide the difference.
