Vision for Diversity
The Maryville College Statement of Purpose establishes a commitment to diversity:
"Maryville College is, in essence, a community for learning. This community includes persons with a variety of interests, backgrounds, beliefs, and nationalities."
The College has a distinguished history of affirming diversity as essential to higher education. The first woman to graduate from college in Tennessee received a Maryville College degree. The College was among the first to educate African-Americans and led the late nineteenth century effort to sustain racial integration in higher education in the state. The College has other longstanding commitments to diversity that include international education, addressing the concerns of the Deaf community, and educating students from Southern Appalachia. But Maryville College also recognizes the beginning of the twenty-first century as a window of opportunity to address new and continuing challenges of diversity in local, national and global settings. These challenges include racial and cross-cultural relations, issues of gender and human sexuality, dialogue and conflict within and across religious faiths, and diversity in the College faculty, staff and students.
The presence of a diverse educational community provides opportunities to fulfill a commitment to democratic citizenship. Exposure to the ideas, cultures, and values of others enables all members of the learning community to grow intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally. Diversity enhances learning because it recognizes the inherent worth of all individuals. It motivates learners to discover the achievements and traditions of near and distant cultures, to more fully appreciate their own heritage, and to develop greater self-awareness. Equally important, diversity facilitates critical inquiry about the histories, assumptions, and behaviors that serve to marginalize some members of our local and global communities. Thus, diversity encourages learners to develop the intellectual agility and the sensitivity to re-examine long-held assumptions about others after carefully listening to or observing the expression of different realities. Although such an examination may reveal contradictions and invoke strong emotions, the dialogue fostered by diversity can extend critical thinking, compassion, and humility.
Motivated by the educational benefits of diversity, Maryville College seeks to provide a safe and civil environment that encourages awareness of, curiosity about, and respect for those whose insights and experiences come from varied traditions. The College strives to promote cross-cultural collaboration and to invite new voices to expand the learning community. Recognizing that critical engagement with diversity requires personal experience, faculty, staff and students are encouraged to explore diversity in curricular and co-curricular settings as they learn about and celebrate the rich variety of human gifts. Community members affiliate with various groups in order to enjoy support, to increase knowledge, to gain new perspectives, and to open windows of opportunity through social action. By design, membership in the Maryville College community promises interaction with diverse people, perspectives, and ideas.
Statement of Non-discrimination
Maryville College does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, ethnic or national origin, religion, sexual orientation, age, disability, or political beliefs in provision of educational opportunities and benefits.

HELPING to recruit the right players to improve the Oxford United squad will dominate Mark Ashton's first weeks as chief executive – with attacking players top of the agenda.
The 42-year-old intends to play a role in advancing the club in all areas, from youth development to the commercial side of the business.
But with the start of the Sky Bet League Two season just five weeks away, he is well aware Michael Appleton needs to hit the ground running when he takes over as head coach on Monday morning.
So far Danny Hylton is the only addition United have sealed this summer.
Yesterday joint owner Ian Lenagan revealed the plan had been to only add one more signing, but the new investment injected by Darryl Eales means there is greater scope to bolster the playing staff.
While a radical shake-up of the squad is not being planned, Ashton is well aware areas need to be strengthened.
"We've got to focus in the short-term on the playing squad," he said.
"We will look to add, I've already had some discussions with Michael.
"He'll be honest and there are a number of players who've left the squad since the end of last season and between those players there's over 30 goals gone out of the team.
"We're very aware of where we need to strengthen, but we've got to be sure it's strengthened in the right way.
"There's no point recruiting players for the sake of it. Sensible funds will be made available to strengthen us."
While Appleton will be starting his squad building two months after the rest of the clubs in Sky Bet League Two, Ashton does not believe it gives United a problem.
He said: "Not really, it goes back to the club being run well.
"Ian hasn't left himself in a position where he's got 14 players out of contract.
"It's an evolution of the squad, so I don't think there's anything we can't cope with in that respect.
"The transfer window goes on after the start of the season as well."
There is also the potential for fresh blood on the coaching staff.
Andy Melville has not been replaced since leaving as first-team coach in May.
Former West Brom defender Darren Moore, who was part of Appleton's staff at Blackburn Rovers in 2013, has been linked with becoming United's new assistant manager, although yesterday Ashton indicated nothing was decided.
He said: "Initially Michael will come in and we'll take it from there.
"There's no rush, there are good coaches here, so let's evolve it."

Partnering with the Community
Partnerships are the foundation of any NORC program, bringing together a seemingly unlikely mix of players for a common purpose – to make the community a better place for its older residents to live. Varied in experience and orientation, partners bring a range of resources to a NORC program, assume different levels of responsibility, and make varying degrees of commitment.
Core partners are drawn from both the public and private sectors, and include health care and social service providers, a housing or neighborhood organization, and senior residents. This public-private partnership sustains the NORC program by providing financial support, services, and guidance. Many other community stakeholders – including government agencies, local businesses, community groups, public safety officials, libraries, religious organizations, and academic institutions – also become involved with differing degrees of intensity.
Resident seniors are core partners in the programs of a NORC, a departure from traditional social service structures, which tend to view seniors as only service recipients. NORC programs give seniors a powerful voice in defining their vision and in shaping their design, while connecting them to peers in the community and to other stakeholders.
Partnerships are rarely cohesive and seldom orderly. More often, they are fluid and challenging, and sometimes tense. Because partners come on board for different reasons and often have differing agendas, they tend to come and go over time. Partnerships that endure are those in which participants have learned to function as a unified group, despite their many differences, and to reflect the community being served.
As it seeks solutions to the challenges of aging in the community, a NORC program relies heavily on strong partnerships. For a partnership to succeed, it needs:
- A shared mission.
- Strong and effective leadership.
- Clarity of roles and functions.

Quote from: BrentS on December 24, 2007, 06:15 PMBummer. I have a neighbor from Japan, she might be able to help me out. Anyone know how to get into the club?Bummer - Any help too would be great! And Better yet, whats the ordering limit for these
Bummer. I have a neighbor from Japan, she might be able to help me out. Anyone know how to get into the club?
My contact in Japan has two names/addresses registered for the DM and Uzay Snowtroopers. I'll keep my fingers crossed but doubt my chances are still very good.
I really don't think you'll have a problem getting these sets off ebay. Medicom has been saying their stuff is limited to "X" number of pieces for a long time now and frankly, I just don't believe them. From a business standpoint, it makes perfect sense to say an item is "limited" because nobody is ever going to know unless they work for the company. This isn't just limited to Medicom by the way, a lot of companies do this.
I think BrentS will end up with his items through the lottery and wouldn't be surprised if both addy's win, especially if my theory about solicitation to determine production run size is correct.
I can see your solicitation theory working for stuff like the last box set (that had no limit number attached), but didn't they already say both of these items (Blue Star and Maul Bike Set) were limited to 2007 pieces?
Personally, the whole 5 piece set seems really funky to me....first we were told it would be collector club exclusive, so no big deal we've had those before. Next we were told that some online dealers would be getting these items Big Bad Toy Store and Toywiz, and their distributor fell through for them. Next thing I know, there's a whole bunch of loose items from that set minus the weapons on ebay. It all just seems really suspicious. Did the distributor for these online dealers say to themselves "there's no way we're going to sell these for 30 to 45 to these online dealers when we could sell them on ebay for 150+ now!" This still doesn't explain why there are no weapons so I don't know I'm just throwing out ideas.
Item status:This is a PREORDER item and is expected to be in stock on: Friday 30 May, 2008. Subject to change.

A once illegal narcotic averaging 15 years of prison time has found itself in mainstream topics. Ranging from medical to recreational use and who will be the distributors have all been topics over the last 20 years.

Escalating Syria's WarWritten by Stephen Lendman Subject: Syria
by Stephen Lendman
Syria is Washington's war. It was planned years ago. At issue is regime change. America tolerates no independent governments. It wants pro-Western puppet ones replacing them.
Death squad terror is policy. Washington upped the stakes. Headlines suggest chemical weapons use. Both sides trade accusations. Nothing's verified.
Mossad-connected DEBKAfile headlined "Witnesses report onset of chemical warfare in Syria," saying:
A "Reuters photographer said he (saw) people come into two Aleppo hospitals with breathing problems after the attack. They claimed people were suffocating on the streets."
"Western intelligence sources reckoned that for the Assad regime, Homs, the scene of fierce battles between government and rebel forces in recent days, is likely to be the first place where the Assad government resorts to chemical warfare."
"The allegation that the rebels have resorted to chemical warfare strongly points to an Assad ploy to go there himself and maintain it was only after the opposition went first."
"The emergence of dread unconventional weapons on the Syrian battlefield during the US president's stay in the region is bound to dominate his talks with its leaders. It may even have the effect of altering his schedule and affect his itinerary."
Make no mistake. Syrian forces used no chemical or other unconventional weapons. Suggesting it is false. Syrian officials categorically deny it.
On March 19, the Syrian Arab News Agency cited Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi. He accused countries arming death squad fighters.
He said terrorists fired a rocket with chemical substances from Da'el. It landed in al-Neirab on Khan al-Asal. It's southwest of Aleppo. It created a "dangerous escalation."
He holds Turkey and Qatar responsible. Two dozen people died. Over 100 hundred others were injured. Most are in critical condition.
"Whoever got involved and announced direct and public military support to the terrorists, whether he was an emir, a minister or a prime minister, must be held to account for the crime," he stressed.
He knows Washington bears main responsibility. It's been that way since conflict erupted.
Chemical weapons are banned, said al-Zoubi. Using them reflects a "dangerous shift in the course of what is taking place in Syria on the security and military levels."
Toxic gases cause "fainting, quiver and death." They're lethal. They're internationally banned.
Using them reflects a "shift in the type and manner of arming the terrorists embodied in using weapons imported from outside Syria across the border with some neighboring countries means that all allegations made by some countries, such as France, UK, Qatar and Turkey on providing logistic and 'non-lethal' weapons to the armed terrorist groups in Syria are mere talk to sell the media."
This "horrible crime is a clear indisputable evidence on terrorists using such internationally-banned weapons."
Al-Zoubi and other government officials stressed repeatedly. Syria will never used internationally banned weapons. It's committed to agreements and protocols.
Deputy Foreign and Expatriates Minister, Faisal al-Mikdad, said foreign-backed terrorists stop at nothing. He holds countries supporting them responsible.
"We warned throughout the past months of the allegations circulated by some countries and parties on the possibility of us using chemical weapons, and we stressed that in case Syria possessed any such weapons, it wouldn't use them against its civilians under any circumstances," he said.
It was just a matter of time until Washington upped the stakes. At issue is what's next?
Russia blamed insurgents for chemical weapons use. A Foreign Ministry statement expressed alarm.
Itar Tass said:
"The Syrian armed Opposition has used chemical weapons to kill 16 and harm about 100 others, the Russian Foreign Ministry said."
"According to reports from Damascus, the use of chemical weapons was registered in the Aleppo province early in the morning of March 19."
"The explosion of a warhead containing a chemical warfare agent killed 16 and injured about 100 others."
"We regard this as a new and very alarming and dangerous turn of events in the Syrian crisis."
"We are extremely worried over the fact armed militants have laid hands on WMDs, which still worsens the situation in Syria and propels confrontation in that country into a new spiral."
White House spokesman Jay Carney said:
"We are looking carefully at allegations of chemical weapons use. We are evaluating them."
"We have no evidence to substantiate the charge that the opposition has used chemical weapons."
"We are deeply skeptical of a regime that has lost all credibility and we would also warn the regime against making these kinds of charges as any kind of pretext or cover for its use of chemical weapons."
The State Department made similar comments. The Pentagon said it's monitoring the situation. Spokesman George Little said:
"I have no information at this time to corroborate any claims that chemical weapons have been used in Syria."
"The use of chemical weapons in Syria would be deplorable."
Carney reiterated Obama's position. In December he said:
"Today I want to make it absolutely clear to Assad and those under his command. The world is watching."
"The use of chemical weapons is and would be totally unacceptable. If you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons, there will be consequences, and you will be held accountable."
Chemical weapons use crosses a red line, he stressed. Carney said nothing further on potential consequences. The situation bears watching. Dangerous escalation may follow.
Note: NATO commander Admiral James Stavridis said a more aggressive alliance posture could help break the Syrian stalemate. It would help oust Assad, he added.
He said so during Senate Armed Services Committee testimony. A range of options are being considered. NATO's ready to intervene if called on.
Saying so suggests planned escalation. Future reports will explain more.

We awoke this morning to the entirely unnecessary sight of the personal photos of several celebrities, the pictures range from the fully clothed "mirror selfie" to the far more explicit. Victims include Jennifer Lawrence, Ariana Grande, Kate Upton and Victoria Justice. For obvious reasons, clicking on links to "naked celebrity" photos, or opening email attachments would be a *very* bad idea right now, expect criminals to ride this bandwagon immediately.
The images first surfaced on the infamous 4chan image board where the author is claiming to have much more photographic and even video material, stolen from iCloud accounts and for sale to the highest bidder. Of course the release of the photos has also prompted a rash of fake images but the reality of many of these images, confirmed in some cases by the victim's agents, poses an uncomfortable question for anyone using iCloud and indeed anyone who has anything they would rather keep private… Is my cloud storage safe?
A wide scale "hack' of Apple's iCloud is unlikely, even the original poster is not claiming that. The fact that certain celebrities are involved and the nature of the stolen material makes this seem far more targeted. So how could it have happened?
1- (Least likely) All the celebrities affected had weak, easy to guess, passwords. The hacker simply worked them out and logged in.
2 – If the attacker already knew the email address which the victim is using for iCloud, then they could have used the "I forgot my password" link, assuming that the victim had not enabled two-factor authentication for iCloud. Without two factor authentication, the password reset uses the traditional "security question" method. The peril in this for celebrities is that much of their personal information is already online and a security question such as "Name of my first pet" may be a lot less "secret" for a celebrity that it is for you and I?
3 – The attacker broke into another connected account with weaker security or password, perhaps a webmail account that is used to receive password reset emails sent by iCloud.
4 – Password reuse. Too many people are happy to reuse the same password across multiple services. With so many people affected by recent high-profile mega-breaches, simple lookup services for stolen credentials and the number of details for sale online have skyrocketed, while at the same time the price of stolen data has tumbled, through oversupply. Of course if the victim is using the same password for iCloud as for another, already compromised or easily compromised, service the doors to iCloud are opened.
5 – Phishing. It's old school but it still works. A targeted phishing mail sent to a number of celebrities, enticing them to enter their iCloud credentials onto a fake login page would do the job just as well as any more complex hack.
What are the lessons here for all of us?
If any online service is offering you options that increase your security, enable them. Even if you feel that turning on two-factor authentication may be slightly more inconvenient for you when logging in, I'm willing to bet that a compromise of a service at the heart of your digital life will be considerably more so.
Do not reuse passwords. It is never a good idea to use the same password across multiple web sites, so try to have a unique one for every site you use or better yet, use a Password Manager which offers you the convenience of only having to remember a single password with the security of unique passwords for every service.
As for those security or password reset questions, consider whether the answers are really secure. Secure means that you are the only person who can answer the question. If the possibility exists to create your own questions, use it. If you are obliged to answer more standard questions such as "First school" or "First pet" remember the answer doesn't have to be the truth, it only has to be something you can remember.
Deleted may not always mean deleted, as some of these victims are discovering. Familiarise yourself with the online services you use, find out if backups or shadow copies are taken and how they can be managed. In this case it seems that some of the victims may have believed that deleting the photos from their phones was enough, perhaps forgetting about Apple's Photo Stream.
Oh and the other thing stop taking naked photos.

I love this approach. The challenge is that this likely has to be built from the ground up with this in mind. Is any EHR on that trajectory now?

I applaud all the early adopters of EMR (yes, if you were an early adopter it was EMR and not EHR). I'd love to hear more from those who were adopting EMR early on. I started with EMR 8 years ago. So, I wasn't really early in adoption, but I was one of the early EMR bloggers.

I think the concept of EHR Backlash is interesting. The link in the above tweet is to a post I did on EMR and HIPAA that's been one of my most popular posts ever. I really think it's a look into the future of the EMR environment. I think most doctors will appreciate that post.

IRVINE, CA (WWJ) — The government has seized $21 million from electric carmaker Fisker, after the company failed to make a scheduled payment on its $192 million federal loan.
With Fisker's growing financial problems, it was widely expected that the company wouldn't be able to make Monday's scheduled payment. The funds seized came from an account set up as collateral, when Fisker was granted the loan.
This comes amid increasing speculation that a Fisker bankruptcy filing could be imminent.
"The electric vehicle market is very limited, less than one percent of the market, well less than one percent," says auto analyst Rebecca Lindland, now a consultant with Rebel 3 Media. "The market for vehicles that are over $100,000 — and Fiskers are $103,000 — is also very limited."
So, Lindland says high expenses and low volumes have caught up to create problems for Fisker.
"It can be a recipe for disaster, and — unfortunately — that's what Fisker has run into."
Fisker was launched amid much fanfare at the 2008 North American International Auto Show. Founder Henrik Fisker was a well-known car designer, with a dream of making sporty, luxury cars, with extended range electric drive systems. When his original vehicle, the Fisker Karma, hit the market, it was scooped up by many Hollywood celebrities.
However, costs ran higher than expected, and a plan to build a second electric vehicle at a former Chrysler plant in Delaware never got off the ground. Fisker has gone through several CEOs, and founder Henrik Fisker recently left the company.
The federal loan money received by Fisker was part of a government program to loan car companies money to help them build more fuel efficient products. Fisker executives have been called to Washington for a Thursday hearing, where they will be grilled on how they used that loan money.
"Research and development certainly needs to happen in these circumstances," said Lindland. "But, I think, also, when we look at the demands we are putting on the consumer tax dollar, there may be better uses of those funds."
Recent attempts by Fisker to raise new funds have not been successful. The company hasn't built a car since last summer, and recently laid off most of its work force.
To Lindland, this harkens back memories of another company started by a high profile auto executive back in the 1980s that made conventionally powered luxury sports cars. The DeLorean became one of the industry's best known failures.
"It's the same kind of approach. It's the same kind of investment that's needed. And, unfortunately, I fear it's going to be the same type of outcome."

Cancer Deaths To Rise To 10 Million This Year, Says World Health Organization

The statistics are bleak. 1 in 5 men will develop cancer during their lifetime, a higher rate than 1 in 6 which is the rate for women. Lung, breast and colorectal cancer are the top three types of cancer and are responsible for a third of new cancer cases and deaths. An aging population is one reason for the rise in cancer, and the

Nadella News Helps With the Hyderabad Blues
While the southern city of Hyderabad once tried to avoid being eclipsed by Bangalore as an Indian technology hub by nicknaming itself "Cyberabad," it could now be getting a real boost to its tech cred as the former home of Satya Nadella, the likely next chief of Microsoft Corp.
Directors of the Redmond-based company are negotiating with the 22-year company veteran to succeed Steve Ballmer, according to a person familiar with the matter. If the board finalizes the pick, Mr. Nadella will become the third person to lead Microsoft since Bill Gates and Paul Allen founded the company in 1975.
Hyderabad in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh wants to be thought of as India's second technology hub after Bangalore. It has some of India's biggest software companies and houses the research units of some of the top global names including Google Inc., Facebook Inc., and the world's largest Microsoft research center outside of the United States.
It is also home to the grand campus of the Hyderabad Public School at Begumpet -- the school where Mr. Nadella spent most of his early days of schooling.
The school, which has been around since the early 1900s, was initially built to educate the regions princes and other elites. It's a cluster of big, white colonial-era buildings on a 150-acre grounds in the middle of India's sixth largest city.
Its alumni list includes some local film actors and politicians and even the current Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy, and India's education minister Pallam Raju.
It also was the first school of other high-profile corporate leaders including Adobe Systems chief executive Shantanu Narayen and Prem Watsa chairman of Fairfax Financial Holdings, who was in the news for bidding for Blackberry
Current students said they are happy to hear the news that their school's alumnus, who used to play cricket on the school's dusty fields, is tipped to become one of the world's most powerful people in technology.
"He's an eagle, and eagles are supposed to soar," said P.M.Z. Prasad, a 12th grade student at the school referring to the school mascot. "He will become the CEO, I'm pretty confident.
Mr. Nadella being shortlisted as CEO of Microsoft "will give us inspiration to be at the top most level," said Krishna Sravan, an 11th grade student.
Older eagles that studied at the same time as Mr. Nadella described him as soft spoken but popular.
"He was a good student," said Faiz Khan who graduated the same year as Mr. Nadella. "But definitely not among the nerds."
In 2011, Mr. Nadella brought a Microsoft robotics program for students to Begumpet. Though he had recently been appointed president at Microsoft, he spent the full day with the students, promoting the program which helps students build and control robots.
During that visit his fellow alums sponsored a lunch to celebrate his promotion at Microsoft.
"We said, one day he'll become the CEO of Microsoft," said M. Anand, who studied with Mr. Nadella and was at the lunch. "He said 'Don't jinx me.'"
As a child, Mr. Nadella lived in the nearby Sagar Society, an upmarket neighborhood. While much of his old stomping ground has become big condominiums and modern bungalows, his family's two floor home which has wide balconies and a spiral staircase is little changed from when he grew up there.
Mr. Nadella's father B.N. Yugandhar-- a career bureaucrat who was once the secretary to India's Prime Minister Narasimha Rao and known for his anti-poverty activism—still lives there. He has had to fight off reporters coming to their home looking for comments about his son.
"Don't sensationalize," about the appointment, Mr. Yugandhar told the Wall Street Journal through a half opened door. "There is a brick kiln workers' protest today why don't you go cover that?"

Virginia legislators rally to change state foreclosure process
The Courts of Justice Civil Laws subcommittee in the Virginia House of Representatives reviewed a bill Monday that would force banks to maintain up-to-date records tracking the ownership of mortgage loans. Although the committee was scheduled to vote on the bill, the vote was pushed back to next Monday Jan. 24, according to a legislative aide in Republican Delegate Bob Marshall's office. Marshall introduced the bill, formally called House Bill No. 1506, on Jan. 12. Under the bill, lenders would have to provide written notification of a title sale at least 45 days before the transaction is made. In addition, the written notice must be provided to the owner of a property if a proposed foreclosure is taking place. Marshall has previously taken issue with title transfers. In early November, he wrote a letter to the Virginia state attorney general asking for an investigation into the legality of practices by Mortgage Electronic Registration System, an electronic mortgage title database created by players in the mortgage industry. Marshall is working diligently alongside other state legislators to change the state's foreclosure process. Virginia Sen. Chap Petersen hosted a press conference Monday at the Virginia General Assembly Building to discuss three bills he sponsored regarding the state's foreclosure process. According to an article in The Washington Post, he is trying to lengthen the foreclosure process so homeowners have more time to dispute claims. Virginia is a non-judicial foreclosure state, meaning each case does not have to be approved by a judge. The judicial foreclosure process can take months longer than the non-judicial process. According to analytics firm 1010data, New York's housing market is worse than California's for this very reason. As of November it took 19 months to liquidate a foreclosed home in California, compared with 32 months in New York. Peterson introduced three bills into the Senate, which have yet to be discussed. Individually they would require a 30-day notice to foreclose on a defaulted property (including information identifying the owner and servicer of the loan and the outstanding principal balance); forbid the use of faulty affidavits in a foreclosure case, with criminal penalties; and require that creditors register each mortgage purchase with the Clerk of Circuit Court in the 17th Judicial District, which encompasses Virginia. "This is arguably the most important remedy," Petersen said of the last requirement. "Right now, the mortgages are registered with "MERS," a privately-owned firm which operates solely for the benefit of lenders. There is zero government oversight of this entity, which holds the records of (literally) millions of Virginians." MERS affirmed its legal track record when Marshall wrote the letter to the Virginia AG in November, stating the organization "does not eliminate, omit or otherwise fail to report land ownership information from public records." Write to Christine Ricciardi. Follow her on Twitter @HWnewbieCR.

I DO however wish that they offered a slightly larger size, perhaps deeper in dimension. The current large case is really designed around the very small iCharger line of chargers, so for those with other chargers the lid proves to be too shallow to mount a charger and use the very nice Hardline Deck (even with the provided deck cutouts).

It holds the Mean Well power supply very nicely with spare room underneath the cover to hold tools, balance boards, wires, batteries and the iCharger 306b fits perfectly on top. Very clean installation and neat! Thanks again Dave :P! (Posted on 3/4/2012)

|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Hyla savignyi (Audouin, 1829)
|Regional Assessments:
Hyla arborea (Audouin, 1829) ssp. savignyi
Hyla arborea var. savignyi Boulenger, 1882
Hyla arborea Boulenger, 1882 var. savignyi
Hyla arborea savignyi (Audouin, 1829)
|Taxonomic Notes:
|Hyla savignyi is a member of the Hyla arborea complex. It was previously considered to be a subspecies of H. arborea. A new species, Hyla heinzsteinitzi, from Israel, that is related to Hyla savignyi, has recently been described (Grach et al 2007)
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Least Concern ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Sergius Kuzmin, Ahmad Mohammed Mousa Disi, Gad Degani, David Tarkhnishvili, Boris Tuniyev, Max Sparreboom, Ismail H. Ugurtas, Nasrullah Rastegar-Pouyani, Steven Anderson, Riyad Sadek, Souad Hraoui-Bloquet, Avital Gasith, Eldad Elron, Sarig Gafny, U?ur Kaya
|Cox, N. and Temple, H.J. (Global Amphibian Assessment)
Listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, tolerance of a broad range of habitats, presumed large population, and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|This species is widespread in western Asia and southern Transcaucasia, including Cyprus, southeastern Turkey, the Levant, the Arabian Peninsula (the Asir region of southern Saudi Arabia and northern Yemen), Iran (Zagros region, and an isolated population in Golestan National Park [Max Kasparek pers. comm. November 2008]), northern Iraq, Talysh (Azerbaijan), Armenia, and northwestwards to Tbilisi, (Georgia). It has also been reported from the northeastern region of Sinai, Egypt (first recorded in the early 1990's). It is present from 400m below sea level (Jordan) to above 1,800m.

|This species is relatively common in suitable habitat. It is the most abundant amphibian species in Israel; it is very common in Lebanon and is considered to be rare in Jordan.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|The species lives in much drier landscapes than Hyla arborea, including steppes, deserts and semi-deserts. It is also present in gardens, bush lands, montane forest edges, open oak and juniper forests, and areas with permanent or semi permanent water sources (including oasis) with good surrounding vegetation (e.g.. Phragmites, Oleander). The species may be found at considerable distances from waterbodies in xeric environments, such as rocky slopes and on the xerophytic bush Alhagi pseudoalhagi. Spawning and larval development takes place in small stagnant waterbodies, drainage canals and slow flowing brooks with dense herbaceous and shrub vegetation. The species is able to adapt to light habitat modification, and may be found in rural, or semi-urban, areas where suitable wetland habitat exists.
|Terrestrial; Freshwater
|Major Threat(s):
|Severe drought, drying from water extraction, overgrazing and habitat loss might lead to localized declines. In Syrian Arab Republic and the Arabian Peninsula it might be threatened by water pollution and anthropogenic changes of habitat. In Israel, available breeding sites have declined by up to 30% in recent years.
|Conservation Actions:
|It is protected by national legislation in Israel. Present in protected areas in Georgia (Hoseov and Skibahoa Reserves), Armenia, Azerbaijan, Jordan (Dana and Al Mujib Wildlife Reserves) and Lebanon (Arz El-Shouf, Horj Ehden, Ammiq marshes and Sandy Beach of Sour). It is present in several protected areas in Turkey. The contact zone between H. savignyi and H. arborea in Georgia requires special attention (S. Kuzmin pers. comm.)

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. - If you haven't gotten your flu shot yet, it's not too late.
County Executive Robert P. Astorino announced that the Department of Health will offer free flu shots to county residents Thursday, Jan. 24 , from 2 to 7 p.m. at the Westchester County Center in White Plains.
"With so much demand for the flu shot right now, some doctors and pharmacists are having a hard time keeping up," Astorino said in a statement.
The county now has 1,000 doses of the vaccine, which can be administered to adults and children ages 9 and up. The flu shot is safe and provides protection against three strains of the flu circulating this season.
"It's important for everyone six months and older to get a flu shot every year," said Health Commissioner Dr. Sherlita Amler. "We hope residents will take advantage of this opportunity, because flu season can last well into the spring. It's also equally important to wash your hands frequently, to avoid sick people and to stay home when you are sick."
Register in advance for the flu clinic here . Or call (914) 995-7425, starting Tuesday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Residents can also visit the health department website to find providers and pharmacies who are giving flu shots.

Weight loss is a cornerstone of type 2 diabetes treatment. Research has shown that a long-term weight loss of five to seven percent of initial weight can be achieved by most people with diabetes through involvement in a lifestyle program that includes making wise food choices, being physically active and on-going participation.1 This amount of weight loss been shown to result in a 25 percent reduced risk of death.2
Weight Watchers is a lifestyle program designed for people who have not been told by their doctor to follow a special diet or exercise regimen as part of their medical treatment. Special diets are referred to as Medical Nutrition Therapy and usually provided by a Registered Dietitian (RD) and exercise regimens are done under the guidance of a Licensed Physical Therapist (LPT). For those with diabetes, these diet and fitness programs may come from a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE).
While not designed for those with diabetes, the Weight Watchers program embraces the principles of healthy living. For those with diabetes, some additional guidelines are often recommended. For example:
Strive to keep total carbohydrate intake consistent from meal-to-meal and day-to day.
It is not possible to convert the PointsPlus system into exchanges or grams of carbohydrate. However, experience-based estimation of carbohydrate intake has been shown to be as effective as exchanges and carb-counting.
Eat sugary foods and alcoholic beverages as part of a meal.
Global recommendations for the treatment of diabetes recognize that sugar can be considered in total carbohydrate intake and the moderate use of alcohol does not need to be avoided. To minimize the effect that either sugar or alcohol can have on blood sugar levels, having them in moderation and as part of a regular meal is often advised.
Choose foods with a low glycemic index (GI).
Research has shown that people following the Weight Watchers food plan have the same reductions in weight and improvements in blood sugar handling as those assigned to follow a low GI diet.3
Increase physical activity.
The activity plan in the Weight Watchers program mirrors the recommendations made by the guidelines for the treatment of diabetes. It is especially important, however, for those with diabetes to be physically active because it improves insulin sensitivity irrespective of weight loss.
If diagnosed with diabetes, Weight Watchers recommends sharing the program materials with your healthcare providers (e.g., MD, RD, LPT, CDE). They will be able to provide specific recommendations on how to adapt the program to your individual needs. Any recommendations they provide should supersede information received as part of a Weight Watchers membership.

GOLETA, Calif. (AP) — Classes were canceled Tuesday at the University of California, Santa Barbara, as the college community reeled from the deadly rampage that took the lives of six of its students.
The school declared a day of mourning and reflection and scheduled a campus memorial service on Tuesday afternoon.
Elliot Rodger, 22, killed six people and injured 13 others in the shooting and stabbing attacks Friday night in the Isla Vista community near campus. He apparently shot himself to death after a shootout with deputies, authorities said.
Authorities said the community college student was obsessed with exacting retribution for what he saw as a lifetime of social and sexual isolation.
Investigators said Rodger had posted an Internet video stating that he would slaughter as many people as he could.
On Tuesday, students stopped by to leave flowers and candles at makeshift memorials at the shooting scenes. Flowers even were placed through bullet holes in windows of a store.
Some people chalked messages on the street, including the words "Never forget."
"This spot right here will always mean something to me," said Rick Stevens, 38-year-old geography student. "It's not going to take away from all the goodness that's going to overcome it all."
UC President Janet Napolitano has ordered flags at all 10 UC campuses lowered to half-staff to honor the victims' memories.
"This is a time for mourning and grieving, and for consoling and supporting each other. It will take time for our UCSB colleagues to recover and heal from this," Napolitano said in a letter to the UC community Monday.

Weekly roundup: Sister Act (reality style), a tale of two parades, and Russell Crowe
It's spring! If you had to shovel snow, take some solace in the fact that from here on out, the daylight hours will overwhelm the dark hours.
This is your weekly roundup.
Let's get this one out of the way. The founder of Westboro Baptist Church, Fred Phelps, died this week. Proverbs tells us, "Do not rejoice when your enemies fall."
In more uplifting and "kind of awesome" news, Ursuline Sister of the Holy Family Cristina Scuccia rocked the house on reality show The Voice Italy this week. Sister Cristina sang "No one" by Alicia Keys, and brought at least one judge to tears. He told her "If I had found you at Mass I would always be at church."
Monday was St. Patrick's Day, complete with its usual green beer and green rivers and green parades. This year, however, Guinness, Sam Adams, and Heineken pulled their sponsorships of the parades in New York City and Boston because the parades do not allow LGBT groups to participate. New York City mayor Bill de Blasio also refused to participate this year, and so the Catholic League's Bill Donohue announced that he would no longer be drinking Guinness, Sam Adams, or Heineken.
Bill Donohue might be participating, however, in the NYC gay pride parade. According to the GLAAD website, Donohue asked to carry a banner in the parade that reads "Straight is great." So far, Donohue has been warmly welcomed by LGBT groups.
Finally, today is World Down Syndrome Day. Go ahead and watch this video, and have your tissues handy.
And now for the Papal rapid fire roundup.
This week, Pope Francis:
- Prayed with victims of organized crime.
- Met Russell Crowe.
- Has people speculating about his meeting with President Obama next week.
- Posed for a selfie with some newlyweds.
And that'll about do it for this week. Remember to tell us what you think about fracking, and check out our series of Lenten reflections. Enjoy these first days of spring, and let's look forward to complaining that it's just TOO HOT all the time.

PALM HARBOR, Fla. (AP) – Padraig Harrington knew he was playing better golf than his scores indicated. He just wasn't expecting the lowest official score of his life, a 10-under 61 to set the course record Thursday in the Transitions Championship.
Harrington took a step toward ending 17 months and 37 tournaments without a victory when he made 10 birdies, including a 75-footer late in his round, to build a three-shot lead among the early starters at Innisbrook.
"I play better on the Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday than I do on the Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday,'' Harrington said. "I'm trying to stay patient. I know my game is good. One of the hardest things is to wait with confidence. I'm feeling like things are ready to happen. Obviously, today it showed the potential. Today is a peak. But we'll wait and see what happens over the next number of weeks.''
With a 15-foot birdie putt on the 18th – how could it not go in the way his day was going? – he broke by one shot the record at the esteemed Copperhead Course at Innisbrook that had been held by Mark Calcavecchia in 2007 and Jeff Sluman in 2004.
Harrington's previous best was a 62 three times, most recently at the 2009 Portugal Masters. He also had a 61 at the Nedbank Challenge in 2001, an unofficial event. It was not recognized as a course record because of preferred lies.
Not only was Harrington three shots better than anyone else, it was nearly 8.7 shots better than the course average.
Will Claxton birdied the 18th for a 64, a score that would have put him atop the leaderboard at Innisbrook the last seven years. John Senden, coming off a 65 in the final round at Doral, was in a large group at 66 that included William McGirt and 51-year-old Kenny Perry, making a rare appearance on the PGA Tour.
Doral winner Justin Rose and Luke Donald were at 67, while defending champion Gary Woodland opened with a 68.
Did anyone see a 61 at Innisbrook?
"I did. I watched it,'' said Geoff Ogilvy, who played alongside Harrington. "On the first tee, I didn't see 61. But after you see it done … the only really, completely unreasonable birdie was on the 17th. There was never any stress.''
That birdie putt on the 17th was from 75 feet, and Harrington said it looked good for the last 15 feet.
But if there was one putt that reminded him how everything was falling his way, it was the 6-foot birdie on the 16th, atop a crown in such a way that Harrington wasn't sure which way it was going to break. He guessed right.
"You're really guessing at which way it's going to go, but on your day, it goes the right way,'' he said. "I guarantee you there will be a lot of players having a frustrating day, telling you they hit it exactly where they wanted and it missed.''
With a wedge into 15 feet on the last hole, he had no doubt.
"When it's your day, I could have turned my back on the hole and I would have holed the putt on the last,'' Harrington said. "That's just the way it is when things are going for you.''
Not much has been going well for the three-time major champion since he last won the Johor Open in October 2010. Though he tinkers endlessly with his swing, Harrington had trouble scoring.
He has been working with Pete Cowen, and in January began seeing Dave Alred, whom he refers to as a practice coach. Alred also works with Luke Donald as the Englishman rose to No. 1 in the world, though he is best known in rugby circles as a kicking coach for the likes of Jonny Wilkinson.
Harrington said it's all about practicing with a purpose, which he has done. He can't work much harder. The toughest part of this has been waiting for it all to come together, which is exactly what happened on a gorgeous day near the Gulf coast of Florida, with only a mild breeze and minimal rough.
The longest putt for par he had all day was about 4 feet on the third hole. Harrington hit so many quality shots that he allowed the thought of a 59 to creep into his head. He was 6 under through 10 holes and had an easy, uphill birdie putt from 6 feet on the par-5 11th.
"I got over it and started thinking, `If I hole this, I'm 7-under par, seven holes to go, I only need to make five more birdies,''' he said. "I just got totally out of where I should have been, hit a bad putt and missed. But if anything, it kind of got the 59 out of my head. So as much as I did choke, it made it easier for the rest of the holes.''
Harrington said he never shot lower than 60 as an amateur, back when he went at every flag, before he accrued what he called "fear and damage in my system.'' He did have a 61 at the Nedbank Challenge a decade ago, though it didn't count as a course record because it was preferred lies that day.
Stewart Cink and David Toms were among those at 67, while Sergio Garcia had a 68.
Innisbrook wasn't easy for everyone. Masters champion Charl Schwartzel opened with a 76, while Matt Kuchar had a 73.
Harrington, who rose to No. 3 in the world three years ago, has fallen to No. 90. He remains eligible for the majors, though the reality of how far he has dropped was evident over the past month. He missed the Match Play Championship for the first time since 1999, and he was not eligible for the World Golf Championship at Doral.
"It's not a wake-up call because it's not like I could be working any harder, or trying any harder,'' he said. "You feel like you're good enough. But if your performances are not good enough, you have no else to blame. It is a little frustrating. But I'm working, like everybody else – working to keep a good attitude and be patient and let it happen and look at the positives.''
That's never been a problem. Even during this slump, Harrington rarely lets a pro-am round go by when he doesn't invite his amateur partners to lunch. He endorses the Special Olympics, and took time Wednesday to meet with one of the athletes, whom he described as being "just happy with life, and it's infectious.''
Asked about the low point during this slump, Harrington shook his head.
"I'm a professional golfer,'' he said. "There isn't a low point in being a professional golfer. I mean, let's be realistic.''
