Admission to Candidacy ("A") Exam
See GGD Handbook for more details.
To qualify as a Ph.D. candidate, each graduate student must pass an "Admission to Candidacy" exam (or A-exam) before the start of the fifth semester. The examiners are the members of the student's Special Committee and one other faculty member (to be chosen jointly by the student and thesis advisor). The purpose of the exam is to test the student's level of knowledge and ability to design research strategies.
Some procedural details
The examination consists of a written proposal for a research project on a student's thesis project or on an unrelated project, and the student's oral defense of the proposal (the actual A-exam). The format of the proposal should be either that of an NSF or an NIH grant request (15 double-spaced pages of text, 12-point type or larger-see below for details). It should explain how the research will answer some important scientific question, or (at least) how the research will rule out some possible answers to an important question. Individual members of the Committee may add special requirements to be included in the proposal; for example, a detailed protocol for mapping a gene involved in the proposal, etc. The major professor is permitted one reading of the proposal prior to submission to the exam Committee. The student must deliver a copy of the completed proposal to each exam Committee member no later than one week before the A-exam. At the A-exam, the Committee will question the student about various aspects of the proposal; but their questions need not be limited to the proposal and should assess the student's ability to analyze and plan experiments in genetics or development, and their knowledge of genetics or development.
Satisfactory defense of the proposal and related questions at the A-exam leads to admission of the student to candidacy for the Ph.D. Failure of the exam leads to one of the following: A one-time rescheduling of the exam; a decision to terminate the student at the Master's degree level upon completion of a Master's thesis; or dismissal from the program (at the discretion of the student's committee).
The A-exam must be taken by the beginning of a student's fifth semester in graduate school (September 15 of your third year). To ensure that the exam will be completed within this time frame, students will be asked to set an exam date in the summer after their fourth semester (June 15). Students who have not set a date by this time will have one set by the Director of Graduate Studies.
Genetics, Genomics and Development graduate students have the option in their second year to take BioMG8380, Methods and Logic II (or SOS, Skills of a Scientist), taught by David Shalloway. This course provides a good preparation for the A-exam because assignments are given in which students write and critique grant proposals relevant to their thesis work. In addition, students are taught analytical and statistical skills and are introduced to career paths that are pursued by many of our graduates.
Remember that, in addition to your Special Committee members, you need to ask one additional faculty member to join to read your proposal and attend the examination. This person is not officially a member of your committee, and should not sign the Schedule of Examination form or the Results of Examination Form. The additional faculty member does not necessarily have to be in the Field of Genetics, Genomics and Development; but if you decide to invite someone other than a Field member, please check first with your major professor.
You should give a copy of your proposal to each member of your examination committee at least a week before the exam.
It is essential that the Graduate School and the Graduate Field Assistant receive a signed copy of the Schedule of Examination form at least 7 days prior to the A-exam. That form must be signed by the three members of your Special Committee and the Director of Graduate Studies. You must turn in the Results of Examination form within 3 business days after the exam to the Graduate School and the Graduate Field Assistant (GFA). These forms can be downloaded from the Graduate School web site at http://www.gradschool.cornell.edu/forms.
In addition to the required forms from the Graduate School, the Field has a new "GGD A-exam Evaluation Form" that should be filled out by your advisor following the exam. The completed form should be turned into one of the GFAs along with the Results of A-exam form.
The written proposal
The total length of the proposal, including figures, is 15 pages. Literature cited is not included in this page limit. The proposed work should be on the research that you intend to accomplish as a graduate student. The proposal should be well-formulated and presented in sufficient detail so that it can be evaluated for its scientific merit. Your proposal should be written following the format specified below which is based on the guidelines for NIH grant proposals.
A. Abstract (< 1 page). This is a summary of the proposed work, with enough of an introduction to allow someone not expert in the field to understand what is planned and to appreciate its importance.
B. Introduction or background and significance (< 6 pages). This section introduces the topic and system, and summarizes what is already known. The review should be comprehensive but not simply be a chronology of events; it should represent a critical appraisal of developments in the field and an evaluation of the present state of affairs. You should cite review articles as well as original research articles that are relevant. End this section with a clear statement of the overall goal of the work. State succinctly why your results will be of importance for answering fundamental questions, or that they will lead to avenues of inquiry, or that they will be of practical relevance to medicine or biotechnology (for example).
C. Specific Aims. (< 1 page). This section states crisply the hypothesis you are testing, or the questions you will try to answer. It also provides a list of each separate approach (aim) you will use to reach the overall goal.
D. Experimental Design and Methods (< 10 pages). This is the meat of your proposal and should be organized according to the specific aims and presented clearly. Critical experiments should be described so that examiners appreciate your mastery of the subject. Experiments, important controls and contingency plans need to be fully described. Give enough detail so the reviewer can judge if the experiment is likely to work. The reviewer is looking for indications that you have carefully thought out every step in the proposed procedure. If you are not sure every step is feasible, so indicate and describe what you will do if the step doesn't work. An important part of the "Experimental Design and Methods" section is a description of how data will be interpreted. This is especially true for quantitative data. What is the meaning of the data you hope to collect? At the end of the "Experimental" section, it is wise to put in a paragraph or two about possible pitfalls. Nothing is guaranteed to work. If you let the reviewer know what you think the major limitations are, then you make clear the fact that you have thought about them. If you anticipate a potential problem, then you should indicate what alternative procedures you will use to get around it.
E. Figures and Tables. Figures and tables are often useful as an aid to the text. It is quite appropriate to reproduce figures from a review or other important article (state clearly from where taken). Figures may also be useful to show the reader what data you expect and how the data will be interpreted. Key figures and tables should be placed in the appropriate positions in the text and they count toward the page limits.
F. References. These should be in the regular journal format, with titles.
The oral exam
The oral component of the A-exam is a defense of the written proposal (please see the GGD handbook for details regarding the written proposal). It is presented to an Exam Committee of 4 faculty: the student's Special Committee plus one additional faculty member. It is expected that the majority of questions that the exam committee will ask the student will directly relate to the proposal and to areas that are considered off-shoots of it; however no area is off-limit. The Exam Committee will likely ask the student to explain, in more detail than the written format permits, background material, logic and rationale for choice of aims, and experimental protocols.
The Committee will likely also ask broadly-based questions on basic concepts, to ensure the student has strong command of foundational knowledge in GGD. The committee member representing the minor subject area is particularly responsible to ascertain that the student has achieved competency in that area.
Although the Exam Committee may run the A exam in whatever way it deems appropriate, the Field recommends that during the exam, the mentor (thesis advisor) should not ask questions or make comments except when asked by other committee members or when clarification is needed. The intended goal of this policy is to dissuade the mentor, who may have a vested interest in the outcome of the exam, from stepping in to justify the research or the particular experimental approach being used. The student is expected to fully defend the proposal by him/herself. However, the mentor should participate fully in the discussion of the student's performance, during the evaluation discussions once the student has left the room.
In addition to evaluating the written proposal, its oral presentation and defense, and the student's knowledge of basic concepts, the A exam is the time when the Committee will discuss and evaluate the potential of the student to accomplish significant dissertation research in a timely manner. In its evaluation discussions (carried out in camera, with the student out of the room) the Exam Committee will discuss the student's course work and course performance, the student's performance in the laboratory, as well as the motivation of the student for research.
Some factors that may be judged in evaluation of the A-exam are:
- Course work
- Performance in research project
- Breadth of knowledge
- Ability to respond to questions
- Communication / presentation skills
- Regarding the A-exam proposal:
importance of the problem chosen
demonstrating a command of the field.
evidence of creativity in formulating experimental approaches
feasibility of the proposed experiments
whether a range of different approaches are brought to bear on the problem
whether the scope of the proposed experiments is feasible for a 3-4 year project
adequacy of control experiments
clarity of the proposal
Possible outcomes
Possible outcomes of the A exam are listed below. While one of these outcomes will apply in most cases, it should be noted that the final outcome is determined by the Exam Committee and they are not limited to the examples given below.
1. Pass. When the committee decides that the overall proposal, defense and progress are satisfactory. There may still be some small areas for improvement and these can be stated to the student verbally at the defense.
2. Conditional Pass. This option will be exercised when the committee judges that SOME aspect of the proposal and/or defense and/or the student's progress in the program needs substantial improvement. In this case, the committee will specify the "condition" that must be met within a certain time-frame, before the student can receive a pass.
Some options for Conditional Pass:
(a) The committee may specify that the entire proposal or that parts of it need to be revised within a certain time frame. The extent to which the major professor wants to be involved in the rewriting is up to him/her.
Some reasons for revision are:
- The writing needs to be improved (for example, grammar, clarity, or logical flow of ideas).
- Some aspect of the science needs to be rethought (for example, better controls, more cautious interpretation, or more detailed description).
- An additional section needs to be incorporated into the proposal.
(b) The committee may specify that the student carries out additional literature review, e.g. weekly written report of a paper, participation in journal clubs, etc. This might be particularly helpful when the student appears to have weaker command of the literature surrounding an area.
(c) The committee may specify that the student complete a piece of research / a particular sub aim within a certain time-frame. This is particularly relevant when the committee has some concerns about the ability and/or motivation of the student to complete the proposed research.
(d) Any other options that the committee deems to be helpful for the further training of the student.
3. Fail. This option will be exercised when the committee judges that MOST of the proposal and/or defense and/or the student's progress in the program is inadequate.
In the case of exam failure, the committee will usually recommend one of two actions. If the committee has confidence in the overall ability of the student to complete the Ph.D. program, they may recommend that the student retake the A exam. In this case, they will specify whether an entirely new proposal on a different topic is to be written or whether they expect a major rewriting of the original proposal. Note that the rules of the Graduate School specifies that a second A exam cannot be scheduled earlier than 3 months after the first.
If the committee feels that the gap between the student's ability/motivation and the expectation of the program is too wide to be bridged, it may recommend dismissal of the student from the program.

Johnny Depp Demanded Restaurant Table Hidden By Curtain?
Did Johnny Depp really demand that the staff of a restaurant hang up a curtain in front of his table to hide him from the other diners? That's the claim in one of this week's new tabloids, but Gossip Cop has the exclusive truth.
An article in the latest issue of In Touch says the actor recently visited the Tower Bar in Los Angeles with a group of friends, expecting to sit at his regular table secluded from the public. But according to a suppose "source," Depp's spot was occupied by another party and he had to sit in a more exposed area. The outlet's dubious insider says, "He complained that he wouldn't be able to enjoy his meal, so the staff grabbed a long curtain and hung it next to Johnny, shielding him from prying eyes."
The magazine's questionable source goes on to say the actor later complained to managers about his regular table being unavailable, so they "apologized to him profusely and promised he'd never be left waiting again." Gossip Cop, however, checked in with a trustworthy source close to Depp, who exclusively assures us the tabloid's tale is "ridiculous" and simply never happened.
Unfortunately, this isn't the first time we've had to call out a publication for publishing an outlandish story about the eccentric actor. Gossip Cop recently busted Star for falsely claiming Depp demanded Disneyland staffers only address him as his Pirates of the Caribbean character. We also busted that outlet for wrongly reporting Depp had undergone a surgical "divorce makeover." This latest article about the actor is equally bogus.

DAY 3: Diary of a Cloud Manager
We asked a Cloud Manager to keep a diary of his typical week. The opportunities, the threats, the opportunities for threats, the highs, the lows and the scary things they never warn you about on training courses...
Incident Two: Friday afternoon. I'll need this weekend to recover.
Severity of impact: Double vision. Some loss of memory.
Fiscal impact: A series of monthly payments that we're unable to get out of.
Career Impact: (See last entry and add one increment of trauma.)
Emotional Impact: Now suffering from Finance Director Phobia.
Incident details: Rashly taught one of my staff how to set up a virtual machine. Billing mistake. Huge. As Nietsche once said: "When all you have is a hammer, everything begins to look like nail." The same applies to cloud tools. When all you know is how to make virtual machines, mass production seems like a good idea at the time.
Lesson learned: If you teach your cloud managing protégé only one thing, do not teach them how to create multiple machines, which need multiple licenses. I think he thought he was feeding the five thousand end users, with five servers and two keyboards. In a way he has put food on 5000 tables. But they all belong to one software vendor. My protégé has created 5000 software licenses that we now have to pay for.
Diagnosis: My assistant seems to be suffering from Messiah Syndrome. Meanwhile, I've taken another hit of concussion.

Varied menu, nice specials. The portions are great and the food is good. Salads looked wonderful but the eggplant tower was an inspiration.
Cold fries. Dry chicken. Mussels in a sickeningly sweet "Thai" sauce. Long wait for appetizers. Disapointing when dessert is the best thing about a restaurant.

Wherein I "rip-off" another writer on the web. Not taking credit, just sharing good stuff. Today's choice is Fr. C. J. McCloskey on why God only forgives with our repentance:
The answer simply is that we owe God everything, including our life and redemption and the possibility of eternal life in heaven. On the other hand, we will be given mercy to the extent we extend it to others, even if they do not reciprocate in asking our forgiveness.
Remember, of course, that all of salvation history from the fall of our first parents is the story of God's mercy. As St. Paul says in one of his epistles, "God is rich in mercy." Bl. John Paul wrote one of his first encyclicals, Rich in Mercy, on this topic.
In my old office at the Catholic Information Center in downtown Washington, DC, I prominently placed a large framed photo of the pope's meeting with the man who had attempted to assassinate him. (I checked recently and the photo is still there!) Of course, we do not know whether his attacker asked for pardon when he met the pope, but we are certain that Bl. John Paul forgave him in any case.

Attention, Boeing
You could have invested in EADS.
Europe's flying white elephant
Several years ago, while I was living in Russia, I was amazed to see national airline Aeroflot begin a mass market advertising campaign using flying elephants as their mascot. Seemed a strange idea at the time -- I can't imagine Delta
If you've been following the tale of EADS' latest, greatest military offering -- the A400M military transport -- you know it's been a rough ride these past few years. First, the firm lost crucial sales to several NATO and non-NATO countries late last year, when a coalition of a dozen nations chipped in to buy two Boeing C-17 Globemaster transports immediately, rather than wait for the A400M to be ready for delivery who-knows-when.
Serial delays in producing the A400M's turboprop engines forced EADS to warn that the first planes won't be available till 2012 at the earliest. In January, Britain's Ministry of Defense called these delays "unnecessary and unacceptable," and began looking into buying C-17 Globemasters from Boeing to fill the gap in its military transport capability. Now it appears that a second key member of the A400M project could be ready to fold as well.
On Tuesday, the head of France's Defense Procurement and Export Agency "DGA" announced that delays in the A400M's arrival may force France to lease or purchase alternative air transport capability -- and to "reduce" its previous commitment to buy 50 A400Ms for its military.
France says it will not be buying Lockheed Martin's
A critical flaw
Mind if I revisit the flying elephant analogy for a moment? OK, so I once read that "a camel is a horse designed by a committee, and an elephant is a mouse built to military specifications." Leaving aside the evolutionary merits of the theory, it does ring true with respect to the A400M. For while the plane (if it ever gets off the ground) may serve admirably in the function of a flying troop carrier, it contains one critical design flaw in its make-up ...
Thanks, but no tanks
Not to put too fine a point on it: The A400M cannot carry tanks. With a lift capacity maxing out at 37 tons of payload, the A400M isn't a big enough bird to carry even the smallest of the main battle tanks in Europe's arsenal -- Italy's 52-ton Ariete, for example, or France's own 56-ton Leclerc.
Fact is, only a small handful of military transport aircraft have any chance of getting a main battle tank off the ground -- and EADS' A400M isn't one of 'em. If you absolutely, positively have to get your British Challenger, German Leopard, or American Abrams to the battlefield overnight, you probably need a Lockheed C-5 or a Boeing C-17 to do it.
The battlefield of the future may place more emphasis on lighter, more mobile vehicles. However, tanks still are a valuable battlefield resource; the lack of this key capability strikes this Fool as an elephant-sized gap from which Boeing stands to benefit.
What's it mean to investors?
Between the rumblings coming first out of London and now Paris, EADS risks alienating two of its key backers if it doesn't get the A400M back on track tout de suite. So far, however, I'm hearing nothing that would suggest that EADS will succeed.
Add in the risk that the U.S. Congress will bow to political pressure and direct the Pentagon to buy Boeing's KC-767AT tanker over Northrop's KC-30 -- a modified EADS/Airbus A330 bird, I might add -- and all indications suggest that Boeing's set to score a double-birdie ... and that EADS is going to get its wings clipped.
Stay tuned for the outcome. Meanwhile, keep the Fool on your radar for all things investing in general, and defense investing in particular:
Fool contributor Rich Smith owns shares of Boeing. The Motley Fool has a disclosure policy.

Hello dear brothers!
I'm a young game programmer, I'm not that kind of professional programmer, but I'm on the road: D, I came to ask a question for who can answer I thank. I started a plugin programming, a long time, on sockets, to be able to monitor the process of the game by the server, but I was stopped moving it, although I'm coming back, I programmed in C ++ and delphi, more C ++ when I send a dll , it needs "msvcr110d.dll" and "msvcp110d.dll" to go along with its plugin, use vs2012, and delphi 7, plus when I do plugin into delphi, it does not need any dll along with the protector, although I I use the demo version, for testing, when I really complete my journey of creating this complete plugin, I'll buy 'The Enema Protector', let's get down to business, what better performance for a good lightweight plugin? Delphi or C ++ ??
Also, I realized that in vs2012 C ++ has more code accuracy, already delphi 7 and much more dropped
I used 'embarcadero' with the same project, and it got 400KB's heavier than with delphi 7, can anyone explain this to me?

Appreciate yourself!
Well … honestly spoken … I appreciate myself. Not always. But again and again. And I admit to enjoying it.
I appreciate myself for minor and major achievements. Every time something worked as planned. Every time I kept milestones and budget … or even overachieved. Then, I am as pleased as Punch, deeply proud of myself, and I inwardly tell myself: "Well done, Christian!"
No, I do not miss appreciation by others. Most of the time I have been very fortunate having fellows and leaders, who acknowledged and esteemed my contribution … and myself. Hence, I always felt privileged. I never took it as granted, and I know that many others have to go without appreciation by others.
But especially then it is even more important to honor yourself, to self-appreciate your performance. For me, the joy about my own success goes along with self-respect; the value I give myself.
Frankly spoken, for quite a long time I thought that it would be absolutely common being pleased about own successes. A natural element of intrinsic motivation. Praise has been proven to be the best motivator. By praising myself I motivate myself. And that is how it also always felt for me. And over the years it carried me through various difficult situations.
Meanwhile I have learned that self-appreciation is by far common and generally understood. From time to time I meet people having a serious problem with appreciating themselves, appreciating their own performance.
But I think we agree that most successes are earned through hard work and are not to be taken as granted. For that reason, it should be well justified being proud of any single success. Not the narcissistic, foppish type of self-praise … but the well-deserved inward self-appreciation for a real performance. No pride which is exaggerating the own person. But joy because you successfully delivered.
If I do not appreciate myself and my achievements … why should others do?
Don't forget to gaggle!
Wisdom out of life for (working) life:
Once there was a countrywoman and her three chickens. While the three chickens were laying their eggs into the same shared nest, the countrywoman found only two new eggs in the nest every day.
So, she started to watch her hens. And after a while evidence seemed to be clear:
Every day always the same two chicken left the nest gaggling loudly. The third one, also always the same, quietly stole off.
So, the countrywoman quickly came to an inevitable decision … and the modest chicken ended up in the stockpot.
But, from the next day on – to her very surprise – there was just one egg in the nest every day!
Now, what are the conclusions of this story:
- Some gaggle loudly even without having performed and achieved.
- Achieving without gaggling can kill!
(translation from German, unknown author)

What Did We Do?
This was a question asked of me by my 16 year old son. I sat on his bed and cried with him. He is going through a very rough break-up with his girlfriend. I know there are lots who would just brush this off as young love, but I want him to know that I will never make light of his feelings.
However...he was not just referring to the break up.
THIS that he refers to is the break-up of his relationship, his mom being ill, the break-up of his family, feeling abandoned by his dad. The list goes on and on for him. He wonders why he can't have just one thing in his life that is stable.
There is nothing I want more than for my kids to really love the Lord. When life circumstances stink it is easy to question God and His love. Even as an adult. But as a teen...wow it's tough. I told him (David) that maybe God is trying to get his attention. Maybe David has turned his back on God and HE is trying to draw him back. Not that God wants us go through pain but maybe through the pain we will turn to the Lord. The only One who can really comfort.
So he asks what did we do to deserve this. I answer that WE did not do anything.
These next words are ones that I have said only to myself. I don't believe that teenagers want spirituality thrown in their faces when they are going through tough times. But I know that there was something for me to learn by David asking that question.
Why don't we ask "what did we do to deserve this" when great things happen? I don't deserve God's mercy and grace. I don't deserve God's forgiveness. I don't deserve to have been born into a Christ centered family. I don't deserve to have great friends. I don't deserve to live in America with all of its freedom.
God does not treat us as we "deserve" and boy am I grateful for that.
There are so many blessings in my life. I am able to see that and I pray that one day my children will see the blessings as well. For now, I keep loving, listening, praying, encouraging and wrestling this thing out.

David and Ellie sure are blessed to have you as their mom! I'm convinced that because of my mom praying for me daily, Christ brought me back to Him.
Praying for you all, Sheryl.

Forgive me Lord when I don't take praying seriously. Prayer definitely changes things, whether it be our circumstances or our heart and point of view.
Today I prayed continuously while my daughter was in a tense court situation and all was well. I pray Lord that I also praise You when the outcome is NOT what I have prayed for.
Lifting your whole family up Sheryl for healing and wholeness.

Your faith and wisdom never cease to amaze me. What did your son do to deserve such an incredible mom who loves her children and the Lord enough that when it comes down to it, "having done all" she stands... stands in faith, stands on the truth, stands holding on to the hope that is Christ Himself.
I don't know "why" but I do know that your testimony is powerful and the Lord is glorified, continually.
I pray blessings, healing, restoration and continued strength over you all, in Jesus name.

This is a great post, very touching and poignant. I'm saddened for your young son's trials. You are SO right, that God allows pain to get our attention, to get us focused back on him. A simple quote that I picked up somewhere but carry with me everywhere in my heart trying to remember: God is not concerned with our comfort but our character. That's deep but so true. Think of all Paul endured with that dog-gone thorn in his side not to mention the years in prison. Maybe David can gleam from that small phrase if you deem to share it.
I know what you mean about not asking why we deserve it when good things happen. I may not say it directly to God often but I do feel blessed in many of the things you stated. Simple American freedom, (physical and spiritual).
I remember when all my house dealings was going on...blessing after blessing...many through my realtor but by God. I kept saying, I don't deserve this God. I remember telling my small group that. Some stated, yes you do. I said, no, I don't. I deserve hell. Those making the comment that I do deserve it were babes in Christ and didn't really see the spiritual aspect of not deserving it. Instead thinking "I'm a good person" and deserve it. Even still, NO I don't deserve His goodness and all He did during that move and still does daily!!
Really touched by this and provoked my thoughts.

It is so hard to watch our kids suffer. And it takes delicate handling to bring God into the situation without turning your kids off of Him. Your kids are fortunate to have you there to guide them. They may not have their earthly father where they want him, but they certainly have their Heavenly Father and you.
Praying for your family. Hugs to all of you.

I have said this to myself more times than I care to count but what I can say is this.. When I cant see his way I can trust his heart. But in a time like this with you children.. I don't have a answer cause I have never been where you are and that is ok. What I do know is that prayer as Linda says changes things! I am praying for you, lifting you up, and asking for GOD's presence to be so with you right now even as I type. I love you girl.

I think the way you sat on your son's bed and talked with him about the pain he is facing, has a lot more impact than you can see right now. Just the fact that he could ask you such an honest question shows the depth of your relationship with him. You're a good mom!
An author by the name of Paul Tournier said that "the greatest need every human being has, is to be understood" Just showing your son you understood his heart is a way of revealing God's love and concern for his life! You're doing a good job as a mom -- especially facing the circumstances in your life right now! Thanks so much for sharing!
I'm praying for you and your family!

When I was a teen (and into my twenties) spirituality WAS thrown at me...
"only the Lord knows."
"Just trust the Lord."
At that age, it's really hard to grasp what the H that could mean. All they really need is for someone to truly listen and to really LOVE them in the midst of all their questions. That speaks more of the love of God than any cliche answers ever could.
You're an amazing mom. Sitting and crying with him, that's the very best thing you could do. You're an amazing example to me, even when you feel like you don't know what to do.

I know it's so hard and painful to watch your children go through hard times. But he has you as his mom, to care, listen, and love him through it all.
I pray that David will see that things trials have nothing to do with him and that his dad leaving was not about him at all. I know kids internalize that and think they did something to be abandoned.
I pray for peace to surround him and for continued wisdom for you to know how to deal with these situations. You are doing a great job as a mom but I know it's hard.
As always you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love ya

And David and Ellie will, because you have set the example for them, and with your Godly wisdom , and nurturing spirit they are going to come through stronger than ever.

i totally hear you Sheryl. dealing with the same things you know. i look at my life and know that the struggles are the things that made me who i am today, yet i hate to see my kids struggle. just praying that all our kids find Him in the midst of the struggles.
my dad always says "life is not fair, we deserve death. we have so much more than we 'deserve'". hard for me to hear sometimes too, but how true... just like you say. praying for your family dear sister!

Ooooh, I ask that way too much myself.
I'm learning, though it's really hard, to just trust God and trust what he's doing, and not need to understand why "it" seems to be happening to me. I really wish that was easier.

I already posted a comment on here earlier, but was thinking of you as I was reading a book review on parenting. I thought it might be an encouragement to you and perhaps a thought you could share with your son.
The book is called "Pinocchio Parenting", and deals with lies that affect our parenting.
Most importantly, Borsellino wants his readers to know that the most dangerous lie is not one we tell our kids, but the one we tell ourselves. It's when we say, "I don't matter." No doubt, this lie will rob parents who believe it of their ability to parent effectively.
The greatest proof that we do matter is the cross. Through Christ's act of unconditional love, God said, "You mean the world to me, even if the world says you don't matter." Not only is this one of the greatest truths that parents should embrace, but it's one they can share with their children, at any age or stage.
I really hope this encourages you! You really matter Sheryl -- and so do your children! You matter to many -- but especially to Jesus! I'm praying for you!

Hi Sheryl... these are very hard question,and only God can give us answers to some of them... but the skinny is that God has given people "free will". That means that the things that people do are choices that they make. And God allows things to happen that we can never understand... but never believe that all the bad things are caused by God. My oldest daughter was raped when she was 19,that was not God's doing, that was man's.
We have a choice... we can chose to allow things to destroy us or we can chose to allow God to use them for His honor and His glory.

I feel for you Sheryl. Its so hard to explain things like this, but what you said to David was right.
Many other people we think are happy and satisfied are inwardly struggling , maybe they don 't express what 's going on indside them.

Y'know I was just thinking...back in Genesis God passed through the blood of the animal taking the curses and blessings of the Covenant he made with Abraham upon himself. When Christ died, God again passed through the blood of the lamb and took the curses and blessings upon himself. We never had to deserve it. We simply live within the hand of God who picked us up.

A study of ADA public rights-of-way accessibility guideline impacts
Metadata[+] Show full item record
The aim of this research is to improve safety and mobility for the disabled community by examining the impacts of the Public Rights-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines (PROWAG). Another aim is to identify the economic consequent for cities throughout United States for meeting PROWAG. The impacts of PROWAG were analyzed via the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plans; namely, what are the impacts on cities to meet PROWAG guidelines, how are the land size, population, and differences of city characteristic in each classification contributing to the differences in cost of improving facilities, and how are the costs and revenues contribute to the unduly burdensome standard? Twenty cities examined in this research were chosen because of the availability of informative ADA Transition Plans. After analyzing the Transition Plans, a classification schemes based on U.S. Census Bureau classification schemes general concepts was applied. The scheme divided cities into small cities areas with the population of 50,000 or less, medium cities areas with the population between 50,000 to 250,000, and large cities areas with the population of 250,000 or more. The cities were classified into 7 small cities, 7 medium cities, and 6 large cities. The descriptive statistics were calculated by using population, land size, and population density as factors for describing and comparing the differences of city characteristic in each classification. The differences of city characteristics in each classification show the effect of the cost of improving facilities. Therefore, a meta-analysis was calculated to demonstrate the city characteristics differences that contribute to significant differences in facility improvement costs. The results showed that the characteristics of the cost of improving facilities and PROWAG disproportionately affect different classification of cities. For instance, typical small cities required fewer facilities to be improved because of the small land size. While typical medium and large cities required more facilities to be improved because of the large land size. The percent of overall cost of improving facilities to the overall city's revenues/expenses were calculated by analyzing ADA Transition Plan and Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports. The results showed that small cities had the highest percent of overall cost of improving facilities to the overall city's revenue/expense compared to medium and large cities. In other words, small cities have the greatest financial impact to meet PROWAG guidelines. With limited revenue, the issue of unduly burdensome could be especially relevant in small cities. However, PROWAG has not been formally adopted and ADA Transition Plans are still developing. Therefore, the overall results of the research are preliminary due to the limitations of the data. Future research could involve another investigation after PROWAG is adopted and Transition Plans are more complete.

Anyway, I left the options as default in the newest m3 game software, and wrote the games to my microSD card. All the games show up and PLAY fine, but none of them save. I have .DAT files for each and every game. Every time I start one of the Super Mario Advance games I get a warning about how my save is corrupt, for example. I am assuming I am doing something wrong. If someone could help I'd appreciate it much!

Visa's hiring of former JPMorgan Chase executive Ryan McInerney to be its new president maintains the card network's bond with the top-tier bank.
JPMorgan Chase (JPM) revealed plans three months ago to launch a Visa-powered Chase Merchant Services payments platform by the end of the year. McInerney joins Visa (NYSE: V) just six months after Charlie Scharf, another former Chase executive, became Visa's chief executive.
Visa's connections with Chase, from its top executives to the merchant services deal, represent a good-news, bad-news scenario for the card brand, says Gil Luria, an analyst with Los Angeles-based Wedbush Securities.
"The good news is that Visa's strong performance has a lot to do with Chase's strong performance," Luria says.
The bad news is that, at some point, the other big banks may perceive Visa as too aligned with Chase, Luria says.
McInerney dismissed such concerns. "You can ask anyone at Chase about what I have done in the past, in delivering great relationships with clients, and that's exactly what I hope to do at Visa," McInerney says.
Understanding what a client needs to develop a business and then using all of Visa's resources to help provide it will be a key process, McInerney adds.
At the launch of the Visa-Chase Merchant Services partnership, industry analysts viewed the deal as potentially signaling a new paradigm in the payments industry, one in which the issuer begins to wield as much, or more, power than the card network.
McInerney declined to comment about whether the Chase program could serve as a model for other large banks, saying he was "not in a position" to speculate on such topics on the same day Visa announced his role as president.
Other big banks may desire a similar position of power in a closer relationship with Visa, Luria says.
McInerney faces many other challenges in his new job.
Part of his role as president will be to help guide a new Global Solutions Group for Visa, which will focus on building and bringing to market new products and services to Visa's issuers, acquirers and merchants.
With the EMV chip-card migration in the U.S. underway and mobile technology advancements booming, the new solutions group and its new leader, Elizabeth Buse, will be vital to the card network, McInerney says.
The migration serves as a good example of the type of opportunity Visa will have to bring together merchants, issuers and other stakeholders, he says.
"Elizabeth is a fabulous person to lead this new group, helping all of our clients and making sure we are delivering the technology and other products they need," he adds.
Buse was previously Visa's group president for Asia, Central Europe, the Middle East and Africa. In addition to steering the new solutions group, Buse will also be responsible for CyberSource, a data security organization under Visa's umbrella, and expanding its merchant sales.
McInerney, who replaces retired Visa president John Partridge, will report to CEO Scharf, who also replaced a retiring Visa executive when he took the position left open by former CEO Joseph Saunders in late October.
McInerney's old job as Chase's CEO of consumer banking will be filled by Barry Sommers, someone he has known for years.
"Barry Sommers is a good partner and a close friend," McInerney says. "I look forward to working with him as we move into our new positions. He has been a great leader and is well-positioned for his new role."

There is good news–here's how to watch Clemson football online without cable.
Use DIRECTV NOW to Watch Clemson Football Live Stream
A great way to watch the Clemson Tigers online is to use a service called DIRECTV NOW. This all-new service, launched in late 2016, gives you more than 60 great channels, which you can watch LIVE on all your favorite devices.

You can use the service on your TV via a streaming device, such as a Chromecast, Apple TV, etc. If you don't have a device, you can actually get a free streaming device when you sign up. You can also watch the Tigers online via your laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
Click here to begin your FREE 7 day trial and watch the Clemson game live stream for free!
Watch Clemson Football Live Stream with Sling TV
Have you heard of Sling TV? If not, you're in for a treat. This service, a product of Direct TV, offers online live streaming and on demand programing from many of the most popular cable networks. This includes AMC, TBS, TNT, IFC, and so much more. It also includes sports from the ESPN family of networks, which is conveniently where most of the Clemson games will air throughout the season.

Vue (review here) is more expensive than Sling TV and DIRECTV NOW, however. Plans begin at $45 a month. It's still a solid option to watch Clemson football without cable, though. There is a free 5 day trial.

Why WeSchool?
Message From the Director
It's a VUCA world where the rules of the game have changed. We often hear about terms such as globalization, triple bottom line, more for less for more, disruptive innovation, sustainability, technological revolution, social responsibility, ethics, governance and the list goes on. To keep abreast with the dynamism, there is a dire need for students to hone their leadership skills, have greater awareness of self & context, develop a global mindset, empathy & ethical perspective.
At WeSchool, all our efforts are towards grooming our students with these qualities and skill sets. Consequent to the mega shifts that have characterized the global and local business environment over the last five years, WeSchool is gearing itself towards developing the future ready managers and leaders, who are versatile, competent and value based. WeSchool's guiding philosophy has been that of AAA which stands for "Acquisition, Application and Assimilation of knowledge". Our emphasis is not only on acquisition of knowledge; but also on the application of knowledge. We strongly believe that by engaging students in pursuing real-life projects/simulations/case studies, wherein they are able to apply the concepts learnt, helps in permanent retention of knowledge which leads to assimilation.
Innovation and design thinking has always been one of the strongest pillars of WeSchool's guiding philosophy. We are committed in our journey towards inculcating innovative mindset in our students.
I welcome you to be a part of an intensive developmental experience at our sprawling campuses in Mumbai and Bengaluru which will truly enhance your intellectual and personal growth. We promise to equip you with inventive techniques and tools which will transform you into Global Citizen Leaders in organizations of today and tomorrow.

2 The Lord has made his salvation known
and revealed his righteousness to the nations.
3 He has remembered his love
and his faithfulness to Israel;
all the ends of the earth have seen
the salvation of our God.
burst into jubilant song with music;
5 make music to the Lord with the harp,
with the harp and the sound of singing,
6 with trumpets and the blast of the ram's horn—
shout for joy before the Lord, the King.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 139295
Can't print to a hp business inkjet 1100
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:54 EST
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040124
Description of problem:
I tried for a while getting this printer to work with a USB lead, but
I had the "Media tray empty!" error that has been reported a _lot_ in
the help forum (http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=53439)
on the sourceforge hp printer drivers project (and I couldn't find an
answer to this problem) and then it locked the whole machine up a few
times and so I am now trying using the parallel port connector...
When I launch system-config-printer in a terminal I get this error:
/usr/bin/ptal-devid: Unable to open device "device"!
Syntax: /usr/bin/ptal-devid [<devname>] [-previous] [[<modifiers>]
Where <devname> may be one of:
Supported <modifiers> (for following <queries>):
-previous -- Gets previous string (must be first option)
-short -- Displays field values only
-long -- Displays leading field name through semicolon
Supported <queries>:
-field <key> -- Queries specific field
-mfg -- Queries manufacturer fields
-mdl -- Queries model fields
-cmd -- Queries command set fields
-sern -- Queries serial number fields
If I continue and add it as a new printer and try to print a test page
nothing is printed.
I brought this printer as it was listed as being 100% supported
and I didn't want have to spend ages messing around to get the thing
working... so much for that plan... :-/
Anyone have any ideas?
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run system-config-printer
2. install printer
3. try to print - nothing happens
Additional info:
The "media tray empty" message is a red herring: it is incorrect, but
harmless. It is not indicating something that would cause a problem
to print.
If your machine locks up at all during printing, this indicates a
kernel bug.
You can ignore the ptal-devid messages, since I don't believe the
Business Inkjet series is for multifunction devices (is it?).
Reassigning to kernel for lock-up problem. What does 'uname -rm' say?
The HP Business Inkjet 1100 is just a printer and not a scanner so I
guess this means it is not a "multifunction device"?
uname -rm
2.6.8-1.521 i686
I guess it would be nice for this printer not to lock up Fedora Core 2
when connected via a USB lead, however I can't remember exactly how
this happened, though it has happened about 3 times. Existing ssh
sessions have also been locked up so that a remote reboot was not
possible. If you do think this is important I guess I could try to
duplicate this problem.
But my concern is more to get some prints from the printer -- I
haven't managed to print a single thing from this printer since I
brought it and I don't really care if it is attached with a parallel
lead and not a USB one as long as I can actually get it to actually
print things...
I think I may have misinterpreted. When you said:
"and so I am now trying using the parallel port connector..."
did you mean that the problems you've reported (ptal-devid messages,
no output) have been from trying the parallel port connection, or that
you would try the parallel port connection next to see what difference
it makes?
If you've tried the parallel port connection and still can't get it to
print I'd like to focus on that.
Sorry if I have been unclear. The lockups were with the USB lead. I
have now given up with USB and I'm trying with a parallel lead, the
error message above (ptal-devid) is from using the parallel connector,
with a USB connector I get the "media tray empty!" message.
Okay, reassigning back to concentrate on this first.
Please attach the output of 'printconf-tui --Xexport'.
I'd like you to edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and change the LogLevel line
to read:
LogLevel debug2
Then do this:
service cups stop
service cups start
Then wait a few seconds and submit a print job, and attach
/var/log/cups/error_log if you don't get inked paper.
Created attachment 106724 [details]
cups error log
I had to upload this using Lynx because the new file browser in FC3 dosn't list
plain text file for some reason....
The error log attached above was generated while from adding the
printer using system-config-printer and then asking it to print a test
I'm not 100% sure that nothing was printed because I'm not at this
computer at the moment but I will be able to check it withing a hour,
however I have does exactly the same thing several times already... so
I don't expect it to have printed anything.
Thanks. I also need the output of 'printconf-tui --Xexport'.
Created attachment 106726 [details]
printconf-tui --Xexport
Does 'dmesg' show any lp or parport messages?
Yes, it has this:
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 [PCSPP,TRISTATE]
parport0: Printer, hp hp business inkjet 1100
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
lp0: console ready
What does 'ps axf' show?
Created attachment 107004 [details]
relevent output of 'ps axf'
Created attachment 107005 [details]
relevent output of 'ps axf'
Done with a wider terminal so that stuff is not chopped off...
Looks very much like the printer isn't accepting data.
Has the same hardware worked before with a different version of Linux, or with
anything? It might well be a faulty cable or something like that.
Others with the same printer model have had success with Fedora Core 3.
The printer is brand new, I have never managed to print a thing from
it, it dos have lights on it so it's not totally dead, I could try
printing from Windows in VMWare I suppose, also I could test the cable
on another machine. But first I'll try printing from a Fedora 1
machine and then I might also upgrade the machine to FC3 and try
that... I'll let you know how I get on...
No luck with FC1, the printer is detected OK but the test page doesn't
come out. I don't know if any FC1 logs or settings would help at all,
I assume not since it's no longer supported.
With XP in VMWare connecting via the parallel port doesn't work -- XP
doesn't detect a printer and with the USB cable VMWare reports that
the device is in use by the host operating system and I don't know
what to do to fix this, so no joy in getting anything to print using
Now I'll upgrade to FC3 and see if that helps...
OK, I have upgraded to FC3, I ran system-config-printer from a
terminal and everything was as before -- it all worked, apart from
that fact that the test page doesn't print.
There was this message in the terminal:
No match for parallel port device:
mfr "hp"
model "hp business inkjet 1100"
desc "hp business inkjet 1100"
cmdset "MLC,PCL,PML,DESKJET,DW-PCL,DYN"
Please report this message in Bugzilla:
Choose 'foomatic' as the component.
I can't return the printer as all the packaging and windows drivers cd
etc have been binned :-/
Do you have another cable you can try?
I have brought a brand new parallel port and usb cables, neither makes
any difference, I still can't get a single bit of paper out of this
Should I just give up on this at this stage?
Perhaps there's some newer firmware you can download? Other uses with the same
model of printer have reported success with FC3, so I don't think there is a
problem in general with that model. Closing as WORKSFORME due to other reports
of success.

2015 COPO Camaro Increases $400k for Charity
The first example of the 2015 COPO Camaro race automobile rolled throughout the Barrett Jackson Auction block this past saturdays and sunday as well as when the final gavel struck, this unusual factory-built bother auto increased $400,000 for a wounded soldier charity group as well as incredibly, it Rick Hendrick did deny this collectable, high performance GM muscle auto.
2015 COPO Camaro Photo
Among the celebrity amenities at last weekend's Barrett Jackson Hand Beach public auction was the initial 2015 Chevrolet Camaro COPO drag racing package deal. Minimal to just 69 systems for every design year, the modern COPO Camaro is one of the most minimal of the manufacturing plant package deals, making it one of one of the most collectable. With this car prepared to race out of the box, the substantial majority of COPO Camaro customers are getting them to go racing as well as not to stuff away as program cars. Because of this, most of these automobiles are being seized up by racers, leaving debt collectors in the cool– however the Barrett Jackson public auction work saturdays and sunday provided one blessed enthusiast a possibility to place a 2015 COPO Camaro in their garage.
"This sale offered the highest prospective buyer the opportunity to purchase the very first of just 69 factory-assembled 2015 COPO Camaro race autos, the final year of the fifth-generation Camaro," said Jim Campbell, U.S. vice president of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. "Chevrolet was excited to supply this turning point Camaro to help a very worthy organization.".
The 2015 Chevrolet COPO Camaro that was on hand at this weekend's Barrett Jackson Palm Beach auction looked similar to the one in the image above, with the distinct 2015 design scheme and package-specific wheels. This COPO Camaro also featured the 350 cubic inch engine option that is topped by a 2.9 L Whipple supercharger is rated by the NHRA as having 555 horsepower. This power is sent to the rear wheels via a purpose-built 3-speed automatic transmission, a strong strong rear axle as well as some sticky race-only tires. On the inside, the 2015 COPO Camaro comes just with what is required to conform to the NHRA Stock and Super Stock lessons, so you wont find many luxuries, but you will source a roll cage and the other safety products needed to be permitted to run down the quarter mile in the 8 2nd range.
You could expect to pay in between $90,000 as well as $100,000 if you were to walk into your local Chevrolet dealership and also order this 2015 COPO Camaro. However, with this being the first unit of the final year of the 5th gen COPO Camaro– as well as with proceeds going to charity– we knew that it would likely cost much more than MSRP. The bidding was hefty and warm beforehand, and also when the gavel appeared, the first 2015 COPO Camaro offered for a massive $300,000. I haven't seen a main statement about that made the winning $300k quote, but some records clarify that philanthropists as well as vehicle collecting duo Jeanette and also John Staluppi contributed an extra $100,000, allowing the very first 2015 COPO Camaro to elevate $400k for the Achilles Liberty Group. It is unclear whether Jeanette as well as John Staluppi were the winning bidders, however we understand that they donated $100,000 to a terrific charity group.

Value noting, nonetheless, is the fact NVX marketplaces the XPT100 as being extremely sturdy (the corporate works by using a promotional image with the headband staying twisted). So if you want headphones which can consider a huge amount of torque, this model is actually a darn sight greater-sounding when compared to the Increase Rogue. Which set has, certainly, the biggest carrying situation I've ever noticed for headphones—it's enormous. You might not be able to pop the XPT100 into your bag, however, you surely won't lose keep track of of it in your automobile's trunk.
Koss SP540: Featuring a more powerful bass than one other Koss pair we examined inside our third round, the SP540 manufactured an interesting series of peaks and valleys while in the audio.
These types of a difficulty may very well be forgiven If your sound were being terrific, but sadly, it isn't. Within our checks, although the seem wasn't horrid, the highs were being way too hot plus the lows ended up too loud and boomy for us to contact the High definition 380 Professional a set of studio headphones. If you want to listen to the mids thoroughly, you have to crank the amounts a lot that the highs begin to hurt.
Plenty of people will find the JLab pair suits incredibly, but All those with bigger outer ears In combination with recessed ear canals could have a slightly harder time with the broader outer-earbud styling. Also, the JLab pieces are bendy more than enough to Perform well with Eyeglasses! Photograph: Lauren Dragan
The cable also incorporates an optional mid-line insert that has a slide quantity control that appears a bit like an electric blanket controller but will come in handy if you need to Slash the songs in your ears speedily.
Are ready to fork out a bit additional for that usefulness—Wi-fi headphones typically Price somewhat more money for a similar high-quality of sound you'd get from comparable wired variations.
That in itself wasn't sufficient for us to price reduction the KNS8400, although the way wherein it emphasized the highs ended up staying a dealbreaker. Geoff mentioned the highs were too sibilant for his flavor, and John and I detected a slight coarseness that built what need to be the very clear ringing substantial notes of a piano audio fuzzy or almost honky-tonk in top quality. Overall, the panel concluded which the KNS8400 was a in close proximity to skip.
The entire audio profile leaned toward the mids and highs, with a person-Be aware bass. John and Phil described the sound as "artificial," and Geoff and I disliked the sibilant highs. Many of us agreed which the KNS6400 wasn't a match for our major options.
Even so, none of our panelists had been thrilled Using the SoundTrue's results. The depth on the treble frequencies was fatiguing to every panelist. The highs sounded rather jagged and coarse, which manufactured consonants on words experience overly pronounced, yet Over-all vocals felt flat and missing in sparkle or lifestyle.
Geoff, John, and Phil also favored the ATH-M40x, but located which the Sony MDR-7506 edged it out. John explained the ATH-M40x somewhat lacked the MDR-7506's depth of sonic subject, and Phil and I uncovered which the high end and lower stop were being only a few decibels also forward in the combo to hear long run, specifically for lovers of acoustic or classical new music.
We could assist with that. Two a long time in the past: We are at the moment tests several new pairs of headphones, including the Koss SP540. In March, the Beyerdynamic Custom Road will go on sale, and we will plan to test Those people far too A few decades in the past: The Sony MDR–7506 are still the ideal $150 over-ear headphones for the next year functioning, and they're (now) a lot less than $ninety. Right after panel tests them against 16 prime headphones, every panelist rated them number one because of their even response over the entire frequency assortment. 3 yrs back: We Earlier updated this to hyperlink to an check here evidence of open up vs closed back headphones in our "which headphones to get" information, but put the textual content in the incorrect paragraph. The Beyerdynamic DT770 Professional headphones are shut-backed. This was intended to consult with the open up-backed Grado SR120i. 4 yrs back: Current the Competitors area to incorporate two new options: the Skullcandy Crushers, which are new and for a certain style of man or woman only, as well as the Sennheiser HD 380 pros, which just dropped in cost, but we continue to cannot advocate above our less expensive (and far better) Sony choose. Four yrs back: Updated to include the reader-requested Sony MDR V6. Despite claims of becoming the 7506's twin, as you hear, they are not the exact same at all. Collapse Newest Updates
Koss PRO4AA: Users complain this established feels weighty and needs an amp to be used having an iPhone. Consider that into account in order to try this product.
The following-ideal featuring in this class, the Jaybird X2, ordinarily expenses about $forty far more as of the producing, as well as much less-costly Bluetooth sealed choices we deemed couldn't maintain a candle on the Epic2 Bluetooth.
The third pair … didn't do likewise. After five minutes of fiddling with the h2o while in the distant, the remaining ear began to crackle. But compared with with the main two pairs, the crackling only obtained louder and worse, much to ensure I took this pair outside of my ears due to the fact I used to be concerned for my hearing.

VIENNA (Reuters) - Tehran has agreed to address by August 25 some issues related to a long-stalled IAEA investigation into suspected Iranian atomic bomb research, the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency said on Wednesday.
In a potentially important step forward in the IAEA's efforts to advance its investigation, it said Iran would exchange information "with respect to the allegations related to the initiation of high explosives, including the conduct of large-scale high-explosives experimentation in Iran".
The issue was part of a landmark report issued by the IAEA in 2011 that included a trove of intelligence information pointing to past work in Iran that could be relevant for the development of nuclear weapons. Iran denies having worked on a nuclear weapons capability in any form.

Designing an ExpressionEngine Architecture
Note: this screencast is old. Way out of date. We'd recommend purchasing our EE 2 book instead.
OK - so you've got a finished page comp from your designers, and now you're staring at the EE Control Panel wondering just how do I set this up?
Seriously…there's weblogs and categories and global variables and the pages module and fresh variables and global variables and….aaugh!
What you are struggling with is how to design an ExpressionEngine Architecture, or EEA. That moment of frustration is what this hour-long screencast was designed to get you through.
Note - this screencast was produced with ExpressionEngine 1x. While EE 2 has a redesigned Control Panel interface and "weblogs" are now "channels", the fundamental concepts and approaches shown in this screencast still apply.
I start with laying out my goals for each client site built in ExpressionEngine, and then talk about my caveats and biases. Together these provide a foundation for the specific recommendations that I make in the areas of:
- Content Storage
- Navigation Design
- Individual Template Structure
- Template Organization
After making these recommendations I'll take you to three of my client sites, do a quick tour of the public side of the site and then go into the EE Control Panel and see how these sites do (and sometimes don't) follow the specific recommendations I've made.
After viewing this screencast you should have a better idea how to build an ExpressionEngine Architecture that:
- Helps you be efficient as the developer
- Helps the site be easy for your clients to maintain
- Provides a solid foundation for future growth
If you are brand new to ExpressionEngine, this screencast will probably be a bit much. At the very least I'd recommend:
- Spending an hour or so exploring the EE CP
- Reviewing the ExpressionEngine documentation

Brazil Finalizes Issue
Sale of $1.5 Billion in Debt Takes Advantage of Demand For Higher-Yielding Bonds
NEW YORK -- Brazil finalized a $1.5 billion sale of 30-year global securities late Monday, becoming the latest emerging-markets country to benefit from the voracious appetite of investors for higher-yielding bonds.
Emerging-markets nations such as Mexico, Venezuela and Turkey sold about $4 billion in international issues last week. And earlier Monday, Costa Rica brought a $250 million, 10-year deal via Deutsche Bank.

They say pictures are worth 1,000 words. If you look at the featured image for this blog post what do you see? Well let me tell you what I see because I saw it!
The beginning of a journey. A journey of a kick ass rock concert in the year 2017.
A journey of a band that is finding well deserved success after years of paying their dues. That band is Nothing More. If you haven't checked them out, you should! They've been nominated for three Grammy's and more importantly their music simply kicks ass. Their journey and their music is what Fun Under Xtreme Konditions is all about.
In this day and age, where rock music seems to be an after thought to Kesha singing like fuxking Adelle, it's good to see the tide is changing. Hard Rock is coming back to the Grammy's and Heavy Metal band Judas Priest appears set to be inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame.
Now let's start to celebrate Nothing More's Grammy nominations with this clip of the band hitting the stage in Baltimore in September 2017 with the song Christ Copyright.
