(last updated on August 24, 2018)
General CWRU policies on proficiency exams are described in the First Year Registration Guide (see Placement and Proficiency Examinations) and in the General Bulletin. The Department of Physics offers proficiency exams for PHYS 115, 116, 121, 122 & 221. These exams are given twice each year, shortly before classes start in the fall and spring semesters, on a schedule determined by the Office of Undergraduate Studies (not by the Department of Physics). In recent years, the fall exams have been offered on the Thursday and the spring exams on the Saturday before classes begin. The last set of physics proficiency exams was given on Thursday, August 23 from 2 – 5 PM. This site will be updated when the spring exam schedule is set but you can tentatively expect that those exams will be given on Saturday, January 12, 2019 from 9 AM until noon.
Proficiency exams are NOT given on request at other times! Students are expected to research these scheduling issues BEFORE making academic decisions and travel plans.
It is not normally possible to complete two proficiency exams in a single three hour period, although you are welcome to try. Students who wish to test out of two physics courses will generally have to do this by taking separate exams in August and in January. Students occasionally ask if they are limited to a single attempt to pass a proficiency exam; the answer is no, you can try as many times as you wish, once each semester.
To be certain that an exam is available for you, you must register for a proficiency exam in advance (preferably at least 24 hours in advance ) by contacting the academic representative of the Department of Physics, Prof. G. Chottiner. (If no one requests an exam for a particular course, an exam for that course may not be available. If the number of students who show up for an exam exceeds the number of available exams, those who registered in advance will be given priority.) Email registration is preferable. (email@example.com , 216-368-4024, Rockefeller 104D). Your message should include the following information:
PRE-MED STUDENTS! Dean Scherger, former Director of Health Career Advising in the Office of Undergraduate Studies, offers the following advice: "Pre-medical students are advised to take at least one course in physics at the college level for a grade. Medical schools are not uniform on how they view credit by examination when it comes to fulfilling their requirements but, in general, they accept one semester of credit by examination ( e.g. AP or proficiency exam ) in physics as long a second, graded course has been completed at the college level."
A description of the material covered by each exam and a sample exam for each course are provided below. Please do not ask for answers ( neat, easily-readable answers are not produced for these exams ) or for additional sample exams. The sample exams are not meant as practice exams; they are posted so that students can see the style and level of difficulty of the physics proficiency exams. The point of these proficiency exams is to provide students who believe they know the material an opportunity to demonstrate that they should be excused from the corresponding course. If you need extensive practice or help with the sample exam, then you should be taking the class.
The physics proficiency exams are similar to the final exams given in each course; problems are modeled on those of past course exams and on homework problems from texts used in these courses. To receive proficiency credit, your performance on the exam must be equivalent to or better than a high C grade in the course ( in the neighborhood of 70% ). Proficiency credit is indicated on your transcript by the symbols PR; no letter grade is given and proficiency credit does not count as part of your GPA. There is no penalty, and no permanent university record, if someone does not pass a proficiency exam.
Students are not expected to memorize formulae and constants in most of our introductory physics courses and you do not need to memorize them for the proficiency exams. You are not allowed to use your own formula sheet but each exam will include a formula page; this page will contain the fundamental formulae and physical constants that you should need for the exam. You are expected to remember basic mathematical formulae ( algebra, trig, calculus ) but any complex formulae required to solve a particular problem will be provided. You can view a sample formula sheet at Proficiency Exam Formulae.pdf but note that the actual paper version you receive during the exam may vary slightly from the version posted here. Different texts and instructors may use variations of the symbols and formulae that you will be provided, so be certain you understand the format that will be provided with the proficiency exam.
You need to supply your own calculator, pencils and erasers. There are no restrictions on the kind of calculator you use for the exam, but computers, smartphones and other devices with communication capabilities may not be used during the test. A programmable, graphing calculator in which lots of formulae are stored or one that can do numerical integrals is unlikely to help someone who does not understand the basic physics of a question.
Occasionally a student will ask for advice on whether to take a proficiency exam. The physics department is officially neutral on this subject; the decision is yours and there is no penalty for trying the exam except for the time you spend studying and taking the exam. However you may want to consult your advisor and consider the following factors.
Positive Factors:
Negative Factors:
DISABILITY ACCOMMODATIONS: University Testing Services does not provide accommodated testing on weekends, as would be ideal for the January exams. Also, they request two weeks' notice if accommodated proficiency testing needs to take place prior to the beginning of the semester, in order to arrange proctoring. (This does not apply to first year students taking the exam in August.) Students who wish to use the Testing Center should contact them directly at email@example.com or (216) 368-5230.
PHYS 115, 116, 121 and 122 each have a laboratory component and it is not possible to test this aspect of your education on a proficiency exam. Labs are a critical component of introductory physics and your performance in the lab counts for 25% of your course grade. Until the summer of 2007, the Department of Physics withheld proficiency credit from students who passed the exam until those students could independently establish their laboratory skills. This could be done via an interview with the Laboratory Director, by taking the stand-alone PHYS 113A or PHYS 113B lab, or by successfully completing the second course in a physics sequence, with its associated laboratory.
In the summer of 2007, the department decided to relax these requirements and to immediately issue proficiency credit for students who pass the PHYS 115 and 121 proficiency exams, as long as you commit to taking the next course in the sequence, either PHYS 116 or PHYS 122, since taking the second course ensures that you have a suitable laboratory experience. If you are nervous about taking the PHYS 116 or PHYS 122 labs without having taken a mechanics lab at CWRU, you should consult with the Laboratory Director of the Department of Physics, Dr. D. Driscoll ( Rockefeller 222A, x-8844, email@example.com ) about taking PHYS 113A.
Students who pass the PHYS 116 or PHYS 122 proficiency exam ( plus those who pass the PHYS 115 or PHYS 121 exam but who will not take another physics course with a lab at CWRU ) have to establish their Laboratory Competence before they receive proficiency credit. This can be done via either of two methods.
The General Bulletin description of each course is copied below, along with a more detailed listing of topics which might be tested on a proficiency exam. A sample exam for each course is available at the link provided for each course.
For your convenience, the chapters in Halliday, Resnick and Walker, 6th edition, that would be covered by the proficiency exams for PHYS 115, 116, 121 and 122 are also given below. This edition is obsolete but it should be as easy to find as any equivalent physics text. Physics textbook publishers provide new editions every couple of years, and our various course instructors can choose from many different texts each year. Furthermore, PHYS 115/116 no longer uses a calculus-based text such as Halliday, Resnick and Walker. So, consider the following listing as a rough guide to the topics that may be tested on each exam.
First part of a two-semester sequence directed primarily towards students working towards a B.A. in science, with an emphasis on the life sciences. While the formal calculus prerequisite for this sequence was dropped in 2003, Case students taking PHYS 115/116 normally have taken calculus and it is possible that some proficiency exam problems will require knowledge of basic calculus. Kinematics; Newton's laws of motion; rotational motion; conservation laws; gravitation; simple harmonic motion; mechanical waves; fluids; ideal gas law; heat and the first and second laws of thermodynamics. This course has a laboratory component. Prereq: MATH121, MATH123 or MATH125.
Electrostatics, Coulomb's law, Gauss's law; capacitance and resistance; DC circuits; magnetic fields; electromagnetic induction; RC and RL circuits; light; geometrical optics; interference and diffraction; special relativity. Introduction to quantum mechanics; elements of atomic, nuclear and particle physics. This course has a laboratory component. Prereq: PHYS115.
Particle dynamics. Newton's laws of motion, energy and momentum conservation, rotational motion, and angular momentum conservation.. This course has a laboratory component. Prereq: MATH121, MATH123, MATH125 or one year of high school calculus.
Electricity and magnetism emphasizing the basic electromagnetic laws of Gauss, Ampere, and Faraday. Maxwell's equations and electromagnetic waves, interference, and diffraction. This course has a laboratory component Prereq: PHYS121 or PHYS123. Coreq: MATH122, MATH124 or MATH126.
The actual PHYS 221 proficiency exam will be longer and cover a broader range of topics in more depth than the sample exam provided above. The content of our PHYS 221 course varies a lot depending on who is teaching the course. For example, some instructors focus on quantum mechanics at the expense of astrophysics and some include more details on statistical physics. Students who take the proficiency exam may be tested on anything included in a stand-alone Modern Physics text like Krane (see below) or Harris. The modern physics section in a combined classical mechanics/ E&M/modern physics text like Serway & Jewitt or Halliday, Resnick & Walker is not generally comparable to our PHYS 221.
The general bulletin description of our course reads: Concepts in special relativity, statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics and their impacts on modern technology. Applications to atomic structure, and selected topics in nuclear, condensed matter physics, particle physics, and cosmology." A more detailed list of topics follows, along with the chapters in which they may be found in a typical text, Modern Physics by Kenneth Krane, Wiley, ISBN: 0-471-82872-6, 1996.
The text by Randy Harris has also been used at CWRU in recent years. Other, similar modern physics texts include those by Bernstein, Fishbane, & Gasiorowicz, and Paul A. Tipler & Ralph A. Llewellyn, and John R. Taylor and Chris D. Zafiratos.
Contact the academic representative of the Department of Physics (Prof. G. Chottiner, email@example.com ) for more information on proficiency exams.

The VCDX defense preparation phase includes both slide deck creation and common tasks such as skill updates, potential question creation, alternatives, deep dives, skill transfers, mock defenses and study group meetings.
When is it best to start? Depending on your mental state at the time of design document submission, right away. I took 7 days off until I started creating my presentation and working on all the other items.
Never mind if you don't know if the design was accepted. Just start. Worse case scenario is that you spent some hours on a presentation that you will use the next time you submit the design.
It will get really hard if you know 3 weeks before the defense that you are going to defend and the presentation is still a New button in PowerPoint.
As for which item to address first I focused on the presentation first and got a good template and the layout just right while getting feedback from my mentor and the study group.
Then I addressed my weakest skills, added to my presentation and did further study group sessions, including design mocks and troubleshooting/design scenarios.
As for a specific timeline of each item, I actually went and did the thing my brain allowed me to do. Some nights I just couldn't do a single slide in the deck. Then I logged into Pluralsight and just watched some network videos. It was all about change of pace (and learning method; Read-Interact-Listen-Watch).
The time I spent for my defense preparation were about 216-260 hours. Why the gap? Cause I only noted 216 hours and those number did not include all the time I spent going over Quizlet and reading books.
Here is a graph of the time spent on preparations:
And here is a graph of the time spent each day on preparations:
Why did I use time to account for the time I spent on the project? Cause I could. And I'm a data junkie. I just really love looking at graphs with lots of connected piece of information. Don't judge. 🙂
This time did not include the time I spent each day learning my Quizlet cards (during transit to and from work and also whenever I could) and reading various books for skill update. That would add about 40 hours to the total number.
At the start of the journey I scheduled how much time I would spend on the project. The following graph shows the difference between these two:
I planned for 270 hours, but was only about 20 hours short if the off-screen hours were taken into account.
So do start as soon as you can preparing because every hour you can put in will help in the defense itself.

Every few months, a web application or a particularly unique idea hits the Internet and captures the attention of everyone. From that, a waterfall of copycats and alternatives pour in. Do you remember the first time you heard of ChatRoulette The Top 10 Funniest ChatRoulette Screenshots & Videos The Top 10 Funniest ChatRoulette Screenshots & Videos ChatRoulette is a video chat site that randomly matches people for a fun chat. Users from around the world can interact via instant message, webcam, and voice. Everyone is anonymous and no login of any... Read More ? Since then, dozens of alternatives have popped up and many have seen some pretty successful launches. The concept is something that everyone wants a piece of. The idea has been brought to life, and from there everyone else attempts to put their own spin on it. It's just the flow of the Internet.
Fiverr Fiverr - A $5 Marketplace For Anyone Looking For A Service Fiverr - A $5 Marketplace For Anyone Looking For A Service Imagine you've got a photo of yourself or a friend which you really like, but you know it could be made perfect with just a little Photoshop magic. What you really need is a friend... Read More is in that same mold. It's one of those sites that you check out and immediately say, "Wow, this could be really big." And, it is. Fiverr is so big that there are literally hundreds of websites out there that follow the same model. There are open-source scripts floating around on the web that even allow you to launch your own Fiverr competitor in under an hour. Doing so may be a bit of a stretch, because the following four alternatives to Fiverr have the space locked down.
Gigbucks is one of the web's most popular Fiverr competitors, and you'll quickly notice that it's nearly identical.
Gigbucks has always done what Fiverr only recently allowed users to do, and that's sell services for a range of prices between $5 and $50. The categories are practically the same as what you'll find on Fiverr. Membership is completely free and there is no post limit for sellers. Gigbucks is also available on the App Store and Google Play, a convenience that you won't find in many of these websites. Gigbucks charges a 20% commission rate on all transactions.
As the name makes clear, Fourerr is the $4 alternative to Fiverr.
Fourerr has been around for years now and has established a name as one of the more trusted Fiverr clones. Fourerr also includes some interesting alternative categories, such as Charity/Fundraising/Donations, Christmas Gigs, and Valentine Specials. The website follows a design model pretty different when compared to competitors, and reviews say that the customer service provided at Fourerr is much more responsive and helpful than others. Fourerr charges a 20% commission rate.
Twentyville is a good spot to be at if you're looking for jobs that range in between $10 and $20.
Twentyville allows you log in and register through Facebook or Twitter. A lot of the work here is geared more towards professional services, like web design, video editing, advertising, SEO work, and more. It's a theme that has taken over many Fiverr alternatives, but is especially apparent with this one. As Fiverr does, Twentyville takes 20% commission on all sales. Fittytown is an exact clone of Twentyville for jobs priced from $40 to $50.
SEOClerks is a very niche version of a Fiverr marketplace geared specifically towards SEO How To Determine a More Accurate SEO Ranking For Your Site How To Determine a More Accurate SEO Ranking For Your Site Search engine optimization. It's a controversial topic these days. Lots of professionals have their own opinions about what constitutes a good SEO strategy. Some people insist that a solid keyword strategy is the only thing... Read More -based services.
As I mentioned before, with so many alternatives to Fiverr, it would seem as though these types of services are very common. SEOClerks offers categories in article writing and translating, blogging, directory submission, link building, data entry, and more. This is an alternative that caters best to webmasters (if you're interested in the services, at least). Jobs on SEOClerks range between $5 and $40. Like the rest of our list, they charge a 20% commission rate.
Conclusion & Advice
Despite there being such a large lot of these type of websites online, I've chosen to only list four here. These websites come and go very often, and you definitely should be mindful of which ones you trust with your services and money. Fiverr has developed a reputation of being one of the largest and most trusted marketplaces of its kind. However, if it isn't an option for you, you can always check out one of the four great alternatives listed above. If you're searching for even more alternatives, check out an article I've done that ought to help you determine the trustworthiness of a website. Taking protective measures like this could really save you a lot of trouble.
Leave me a comment below and let me know what you think of Fiverr and these alternatives. Do you know any others that are reputable and trustworthy? Feel free to share any similar websites and I'll be sure to take a look at them.

I am really impressed by your tips.thanks
Where is GigBuys on this list!?
All this clones of Fiverr $ucks.
Every time I search I'd like to see at last semi-copy (!) of that website.
Places like Freelancer marketplace, peopleperhour etc. who brought new level of outsourcing.

i can suggest you also https://gigsgiver.com seems so lovely and i start to creat my new gigs there too and hope i can reach some new customer....
Thanks for your great list!
How can we know the seller's website/facebook/twitter... before we use his/her service?
For example, I ordered a Android Review for a game, and the seller post to his website, but the website is not good enough as I expected. If I know his website before, I won't try his service.
Can you give an advice to this.
@Steven - because if Users were given each other's Contact info prior to each Sale, and the Sites above all charge 20% Commission per transaction which is taken from the Seller;s Pocket, what would stop the Sellers from cutting out the Middle-Man and just working directly with the client?
My favorites Sites are:
http://aDollarSEO.com/ - Up-to-the-Minute SEO & Social Media Gigs for $1 Dollar EACH - Descending in Order from the MOST Popular, to the least.
http://CEOClerks.com/ - Which also displays Up-to-the-Minute SEO & Social Media Gigs which descend in Order from the MOST Popular, to the least popular Gigs. But all these have been VERIFIED, TESTED and APPROVED by STAFF.
It's a good way to find a quality Service.
New marketplace website ,you can buy and sell Gigs 3-30$ and commission will be sent instant after complete Gigs. so Join this and make more revenue
Just found new website, allgigs.in. Highest revenue to seller, up to 95%. 15% more than Fiverr!
Check out http://galilea3.com. It's the only micro-jobs platform where you can post your gigs in 7 languages, i.e. English, Spanish, French, Russian, Germa, Arabic and Polish. I am the Co-founder of Galilea3 and would love to hear your opinion about our service, if you manage to find the time to have a look at it.

The Stormy Sea
The waves they crashed
the thunder called
its wild, loud call
to me.
The lightning struck
the clouds they raced
across the stormy sea.
The seagulls called
out to the tide
the tide called out to me,
and I? I ran for my life
away from the stormy sea.
The waves licked 'round my ankles
I begged, for my life did I plead
"Please don't take me away!" I cried,
"Release me, stormy sea!"
But the sea did not reply
and then ran away from me
I fell to my knees with a cry of relief
safe from the stormy sea.

Former Steelers lineman Steve Courson testifies regarding NFL steroids policy.
CHARLES DHARAPAK / AP Enlarge
WASHINGTON - Legislation has been drafted to create uniform testing standards for all the major sports leagues as a way of containing the use of steroids and performance-enhancing substances.
"We think this is a critical next step, and we hope to introduce the legislation soon," said U.S. Rep. Tom Davis (R., Va.), chairman of the House Government Reform Committee.
The proposal is co-authored by Rep. Henry Waxman (D., Calif.), the ranking minority member of the House panel that is holding a series of hearings on what the various sports leagues are doing to rid their games of steroids. Sen. John McCain (D., Ariz.) also is involved in the new legislation.
"A single code would put everyone on a level playing field and help spread the message, especially to the youth of this country, that steroid use will not be tolerated," Davis said.
Yesterday's hearing was on NFL policies, which, despite their flaws and loopholes, are the toughest in pro sports. The session, which wrapped up in about four hours, lacked the friction of last month's grilling of Major League Baseball officials and players. In fact, committee members went out of their way to praise the NFL while criticizing baseball and its players union for failing to confront the problem responsibly.
"This is a breath of fresh air compared to what we heard from baseball," said Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (D., Md.)
Testimony about the pervasiveness of steroids was heard from a number of sources, from high school football coaches to former Steelers lineman Steve Courson. NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue and union head Gene Upshaw also appeared, saying that a joint effort by management and players was the key to an effective drug policy.
"There is no room for this substance in our sport or our society," Upshaw said. "It was the players who said we don't need it in our sport."
Steroids are manufactured versions of testosterone and have been on the market since the late 1950s. They became a controlled substance by act of Congress in 1991, four years after the NFL initiated its testing program, and it is illegal to possess or distribute them without a valid prescription.
Tagliabue said 111 players have tested positive since testing began. Of that total, 54 were suspended and two who tested positive a second time elected to retire rather than take another suspension. The other 57 players who tested positive retired before getting hit with a suspension. The NFL conducts 9,000 tests a year.
But questions were raised about a CBS report that three Carolina Panthers got prescriptions for steroids before the 2004 Super Bowl, and Tagliabue promised to share the results of the NFL investigation with the panel.
The league said it is concerned about designer steroids that don't show up on tests and substances such as human growth hormone. HGH is banned by the NFL, but there is no test in place that can detect it reliably.
Several committee members pushed for a "zero tolerance" stand on performance-enhancers, not only for the integrity of pro sports but also to send a message to youngsters that the short-term benefits of such substances are outweighed by health and ethical issues.
Some lawmakers are pushing for U.S. sports leagues to adopt the standards of the World Anti-Doping Association. Concerns also were raised about the use of stimulants such as amphetamines.
The NFL recently tightened the threshold on levels of testosterone that show up in tests.
Courson, 49, recounted his story of steroid use, beginning in college at the University of South Carolina and continuing through his NFL days with the Steelers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He later suffered from weakened heart muscles and spent nearly four years on a waiting list for a heart transplant before he reversed the condition with diet and exercise.
Steroids appeared in the NFL in 1963 and were already entrenched when the Steelers began their run of Super Bowl victories in the 1970s, when there were no laws or policies prohibiting steroid use. While the Rooney family and coach Chuck Noll may have been aware of steroid use, Courson didn't fault them.
"I don't think they really understood what was going on. They were victims of a lack of policy," said Courson, who played for two Super Bowl winners. "It's hard to think Chuck didn't know. I don't think the coaches understood it. Pretty much every team in the league was using steroids back then."
Now a personal trainer, Courson said he had a love/hate relationship with steroids.
"You love what they do for you when you're training, but you hate the compromise you make," he said. "They affected my life in a negative way."
Getting the steroids issue out in the open is troublesome in many respects, but Courson endorsed the hearings and the attempts to rid them from sports.
"Nobody likes this," he said after testifying. "I never thought I'd live to see something like this happen."

Japan nuclear blast could be more deadly than Chernobyl, experts fear, Haaretz, March 14, 2011:
Emphasis Added
Professor Uzi Even of Tel Aviv University, who in the past worked for the Israel Atomic Energy Commission, told Haaretz that these two compounds [iodine and cesium] are extremely dangerous, which is why the Japanese government yesterday began distributing iodine tablets, which neutralize the threat of radioactive poisoning that primarily affects the thyroid gland. …
Hebrew University Professor Menachem Luria, an expert on air quality and poisoning, told Channel 2 on Saturday: "This is very worrying. There is no doubt that we have not seen anything like this in years, perhaps ever since nuclear experiments were conducted in the atmosphere in the 1950s. From what we can gather, this disaster is even more dangerous than Chernobyl, both from the standpoint of the population's exposure to radioactive material and the spread of radioactive contamination in the area."
Luria continued: "Once there is an uncontrollable heating up, the nuclear fuel undergoes a metamorphosis into the gaseous phase. Since we are talking about metals and solid items, they turn into particles that are capable of traveling great distances. They can wander thousands of kilometers."

California Desert
A multi-colored expanse of sand dunes, wildflowers, lush oases and craggy rock formations lies almost hidden between the bustling cities of Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The sheer variety of life, exotic landscape and history here demands we protect it.
This 25 million-acre expanse of mostly-public lands also contains cultural and tourism attractions ranging from old stagecoachtrails to ancient petroglyphs.
View a map of the region below:
Work we are doing

The Wilderness Society is working with California desert communities and other conservation groups to preserve some of the most unique natural and cultural landmarks in the American West. We are also working to guide renewable energy projects to suitable areas, away from the most sensitive lands in the region.
Working to preserve 1.6 million desert acres
We are working to support Sen. Dianne Feinstein's efforts to protect the California desert. Her California Desert Protection Act of 2009 and 2011 sought to preserve the Mojave Desert's spectacular wildlands

We continue to support the Senator Feinstein's goals to achieve the following:
- Two new national monuments
Mojave Trails National Monument: This new national monument would bridge the area between Joshua Tree National Park and the Mojave National Preserve.
Its 941,000 acres would include Pisgah lava flow, Amboy Crater, Kelso Dunes Wilderness and wildlands along Route 66 that include Sleeping Beauty Valley.

Sand to Snow National Monument: The area of the proposed Sand to Snow Monument includes a diverse transition from lower desert areas with Joshua tree forests, to the year-round Whitewater River, to snow-capped alpine peaks, including Mount San Gorgonio, Southern California's tallest mountain. The 134,000-acre national monument would include wildlife corridors linking Joshua Tree National Park to the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains, and bighorn sheep and desert tortoise habitat.
- Additions to our national parks
Death Valley National Park: This national park would be expanded by about 32,000 acres.
Additions would include the southern geological gem known as the "Bowling Alley" with its deep canyons and bajadas.

Mojave National Preserve: This desert preserve would increase by about 29,000 acres. The addition would include the scenic Castle Mountains, the missing piece of the Lanfair Valley.
Additions to Joshua Tree National Park
- Protections for rivers and creeks: Preserving about 70 miles of Deep Creek, Amargosa River, Surprise Canyon and other important waterways as Wild and Scenic Rivers.
- Five new wilderness areas: The California Desert Protection Act would protect federal wildlands in Death Valley National Park and other areas as designated wilderness.
Boosting tourism
Death Valley and Joshua Tree National Parks and the Mojave National Preserve attract nearly 3 million visitors each year. Travelers spend more than $230 million annually on outdoor recreation in those places. Maintaining the beauty of the desert will help contribute to a healthy tourist economy in California.
Renewable energy

The California desert is home to some of the Southwest's wildest places. It's important that we find a balance between appropriately-sited clean energy development and protections for the region's wild lands. The Wilderness Society is working with conservation partners, the federal Bureau of Land Management, other state and federal agencies and project developers to limit impacts to wildlands and wildlife habitat and maximize clean energy benefits in the desert
Guiding renewable development to the right places
We are working to protect key wildlife habitat and wildlands and guide renewable energy projects to the right places. Our list of desert treasures represents some of the special places in the California desert that deserve protection and should be off limits to development. This work includes our efforts to influence the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP) which was released in September 2014.
The DRECP is a joint federal and state plan that seeks to preserve delicate desert habitat and also identify appropriate locations for clean energy development. TWS is working to make sure this plan will help California achieve its clean energy goals and conserve special desert lands.
Protecting the desert's heritage for future generations
The desert is part of America's iconic Old West, and its wildlife, scenery, heritage and recreation are important to local communities as well as visitors from around the world.
The Wilderness Society has worked to limit impacts to wildlands and wildlife habitat. We have engaged with local, state federal agencies to help ensure that proposed clean energy projects avoid and minimize impacts to sensitive public lands and wildlife habitat.
Our partners
The Wilderness Society is part of a coalition of community, conservation and business groups working to preserve the California Desert.
This coalition of local, state and national groups includes:
- Residents
- Cities
- Chambers of commerce
- Conservation groups
- Community leaders
- Businesses
- Veterans
Experience the California Desert

The historic ghost towns, sand dunes, mountains and spectacular flora and fauna of the vast California Desert make it a one-of-a-kind destination. Hot spots like Death Valley and Joshua Tree national parks, the Mojave National Preserve and many Desert Treasures are among the highlights.
But some of these Desert Treasures still need permanent protection, and The Wilderness Society is working to ensure they will be preserved for future generations.
Wilderness is a precious resource with many human, natural and economic benefits that we need to protect.
Adopt a wild place and your loved one will receive a free membership to The Wilderness Society.
Be the first to hear about important campaigns, victories and features related to enjoying and protecting wilderness by joining our email and mobile WildAlert network.

I have the Sun in Cancer in the 12th House. I have always felt my calling in the film industry as an actor. This article affects me in such a strong way that it shocks me. Thanks for looking into fame in the 12th House. 😊ReplyDelete
Great article!ReplyDelete
Waiting for you to become famous Wayman :)Replies
Incredible work, as always!ReplyDelete
Because we chatted about this exact topic a little while ago,i feel like im your personal Muse now :P
Hope to hear more from you in the near future,

David Beckham, the most popular player in the world have Sun in the 12TH house.ReplyDelete
Great article Wayman! As always. With a packed 12th house, this piece is giving me some comfort, haha.ReplyDelete
I have an empty Pisces 12th house. Ruler of 12th is in 9th, and if you count jupiter as co-ruler: jupiter is in 5th house.ReplyDelete
Yes, "memorable", you could say that. Got my Sun and my chart ruler (asc Libra) Venus in Cancer in my 10th house, Venus conjunct the MC. Mercury conjunct Jupiter in Leo in my 11th house and Saturn conjunct my North Node in Virgo in 12th house.ReplyDelete
Also, Pluto in my 1st house.
Even after having been away for more than 5 years, a lot of people I've only ever met once in a club or at work still remember me. One even recognized me from my voice alone.
Sometimes, it would be nice to be less conspicious. Like, I'm not actually paranoid, but of course I make mistakes like everybody else and it's often as if everybody's interested in what I do, especially at work. Hard to get away with anything like this.
Regarding Jennifer Lawrence, astrodatabank has a time of 15.20 for herReplyDeleteReplies
I've heard that but I don't buy her being a Sagittarius Rising. The Aquarius Rising chart is perfect for her. She's a Sagittarius Midheaven and people confuse a celeb's Midheaven for their Rising pretty frequently. It's because the Midheaven is what we see the most in them. She's so famous for the Sagittarius energy - clumsy, goofy, unfiltered, hilarious, etc. - that it would be easy to think that's her Rising. But, I definitely believe she's an Aquarius Ascendant.Delete
Great article, lots of depth, 12th house Aquarius with Saturn intercepted & conjunct S/N.ReplyDelete
Particularly, isolation is my middle name, drained by my 7th house Pluto/Uranus in Virgo, lol,I find myself analysing other's every nuance in habitus & speech - I'm always working as an amateur psychologist & slueth (8th house Scorpio moon/Venus/Neptune)
I write prolifically, but perfectionism & critique-aversion finds me an unpublished commentator,lol, Merc heavily sextiled & trined so I've escaped the nastiness you've observed in uncomfortable 8th house Merc aspects
Anyway, in my Saturn return, sick as a ten y/o sled dog, lol, I've had to dig through several impenetrable layers of denial to discover the role of fear of failure in my chronic disease.
Getting my virtual self 'out there' is the only way for me to heal the mind-body conjunct.

Awesome, I'm becoming a fan. Thank you!ReplyDelete
I've been wondering why traditionally 12 house are very difficult house but there are many politicians and famous people with 12 house planets. There must have a link between 12 house and their success. Great insight. thanksReplyDelete
Truly amazing, what a description! Thank you man. You are amazing. Btw I've mars,venus,saturn,uranus and neptune in 12th house and north node in 11th house.ReplyDelete
I have sun mercury and Pluto in 12th. I also have Venus in libra in the 10th house which is conjunct my mid heaven at 29 degrees. I'm grateful for my 12th house. All the negative yogas and vague predictions are to unreliable and almost never true. Self-undoing and never finding success, things such as that? Things like that should never be typed out for an audience to read. Their entire focus could fixilate on one small detail of a beautiful artwork that is their life. Success and good fortune swarms natives of the 12th house even more so than other houses, not because of the house but because of who they are, the crazy blend of all their planets and squares and imperfections and perfections, their child hood. Life isn't numbers it's life remember.ReplyDelete
Arthur Rimbaud also had the Moon and Venus in the 12th houseReplyDelete
ive got 12th house Pisces, and as somebody else said its nice to hear someone talk about saturn in 12th in a clear way.ReplyDelete
I have the sun and moon in the twelfth house including neptuneReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing your great information's...keep updating more information's from your blog...It's really useful for us...ReplyDelete

Weekly brunch routine is up since months ago! Thanks to boyfie =)
He had a deal with me whereby he will bring me to different cafes every weekend to cure my breakfast cravings.
Been wanting to go Breadfruits for quite sometimes but didn't manage to make it there, and after we had our 1st visit, we decided to visit on the following weekend,again. So many nice stuffs on menus,what to do!
They offer a wide range of European & Australian fusion food.
Boyfriend acting-cute-face
All their drinks were written on the blackboard itself.
Left: Pomegranate Mandarin Wild Honey (RM13.80)
Right: Liver cleanser- beetroot,carrot,orange,celery (RM9.90)
Left: Banana Energy-banana, pineapple, orange (RM9.90)
Right: Passion Honey (RM9.90), signature drink!
All the eggs that had been served are actually free-range eggs.
BLT Avocado Guacamole (RM16.80)
Tasted avocado guacamole once and i don't like it because of the onion texture. Yes, i hate onions very much but i still decided to give it a second try. It tastes bad,still. Don't get me wrong, the combination of bacon, lettuce, avocado guacamole, eggs and toasted ciabatta was great but the guacamole is really not up to my liking. I still finished half of it and shared the rest with boyfie.
Belt Sandwich (RM16.80)
A simple-made sandwich that you make it at house. Nothing can goes wrong with bacons seriously, haha! It matches with eggs, lettuce and tomato with mustard mayonnaise sauce. Our sandwich also came with salad of the day with grilled potatoes, arugula, vinaigrette, onions, and pine nuts.
Roasted Banana Bacon French Toast with Passion Wild Honey (RM18.80)
This is probably their signature dish or must try dish on the menu. Tried it because i saw bloggers strongly recommend this and i love it! As i said, nothing goes wrong with bacons and i like how it matches with french toast. Some may find it weird but it tastes great with the passion wild honey. A sweet delight that girls would like it!
Brunch Pasta with 7 minute Egg (RM16.80)
Another signature dish! Decided to go for pasta instead of big breakfast since the online reviews about this was so good. A light carbonara pasta filled with sauteed mushrooms, bacon, rocket leaves & 7min eggs. As stated, it's a light carbonara pasta so it wasn't creamy!
They're selling variety fresh fruits everyday. Pick yours and pay!
Organic dried bites.
One thing that i like it much is their wild honey. A 100% raw unprocessed honey which you hardly find in the market. (RM108 per bottle)
Bee & beehive in the bottle!
Beware of the crowd on weekend!
We were lucky to grab our seats on the 1st visit but not so lucky on the next. Got to wait to get our seats.
The healthy range of food definitely worth more visits.
p/s: Parking over that area is a pain-in-the-ass.

Issue 8, Autumn 2013
The importance of curiosity
It is a curious thing, that curiosity did not fatally injure the feline. If you are reading this second sentence, well done, chances are you are performing better at work than those that bailed out after my bombshell news about the cat surviving. For those who have joined me in this third sentence, welcome, and may I say I predict great things for your work performance. Why do I say this? Well if you asked that question you may be on your way to an employee performance award.
Enough teasing Jim, you've piqued my curiosity I hear you say. Ask yourself - are you easily piqued, curiosity-wise? Well I have some curious news to share about curiosity, some research that has the potential to make us re-think what we should be looking for in recruiting new staff. Have you worked out what it is yet? Are you thinking about how you might otherwise find out if Jim doesn't get to the bloomin' point tout de suite! Are you wondering what tout de suite means, or what comic Australian characters use the expression toute de suite?
If these questions or others are running through your mind, it may mean you are curious. And it turns out this is a very good thing indeed because it turns out that curiosity predicts performance at work better than nearly all personality measures, most ability measures, more than emotional intelligence as well as a lot of other new age mumbo jumbo ideas. Curious now? Want to know more?
First, we need to know what sort of curiosity is gripping you. There are two forms - diverse and specific curiosity. Diverse curiosity is about seeking out things that might be interesting. This normally involves some form of challenge, and encourages information acquisition, learning, and thinking.
Specific curiosity arises after your interest has been piqued intentionally or unintentionally by something. It provokes us to explore so we can learn more deeply. Curiosity as deprivation is all about understanding and mastering things.
So diverse curiosity is the state of the inquiring mind, continually on the look out for new and interesting things. Diverse curiosity requires an open-mind, a sense of humility that you do not know it all, that are different and maybe better ways of doing things, and a recognition of the limitations of our knowledge. It is the opposite of intellectual complacency.
Specific curiosity requires the determination and doggedness to get to the bottom of things, the persistence to think something through, to find all the available evidence, to pursue the truth.
However, it is also easy to see why this kind of behaviour might be frowned upon in organisations. Why have staff wandering off on quests, boldly voyaging to overcome the monster of their curiosity when there is core work being neglected in the process? Indeed I'd go as far as to say that curiosity is frowned upon in many organisations because it is seen as disruptive. Generally it is the uncreative, small-minded, overly stressed, too goal-focused, narrow-minded middle managers that promote such a view.
The more senior managers, almost by definition are likely to display significant curiosity behaviours, because it is precisely these sorts of behaviours that allowed them to distinguish themselves from the pack and gain promotion in the first place.
Now Patrick Mussel, reporting in the Journal of Organizational Behavior, has come up with some data to support the idea that creativity is linked to job performance by studying apprentices working in the automotive industry. He found that measures of curiosity could predict job performance over and above a range of standard ability and personality measures.
The results did not differ between the sexes. Curiosity, it seems, is a powerful predictor of future work performance, so much so, that Mussel recommends it be included in recruitment processes. It also raises the question of how we can best foster curiosity in staff and in the next generation.
Mussel argues, and I agree with him, that curiosity is likely to be an increasingly important quality when the work we are doing is continually and unpredictably changing in a chaotic and complex world.
If you have made this far, I am sure you already know that toute de suite means right away (literally all in a row), and is much favoured by Kath and Kim. But why do Kath and Kim use the expression, why was it chosen for these characters…?

ATHENS, Ga. (AP) Michael Phelps figured he would be swimming faster by now.
His coach believes he's right on schedule.
Phelps will get a final tuneup before the national championships when he competes in a special meet at the University of Georgia, featuring Ryan Lochte and some of the world's top swimmers.
Beginning Friday, Phelps will swim three events in three days, another important step in showing how fit he is since coming out of retirement.
Coach Bob Bowman says he's pleased with Phelps' progress and sees no reason why he can't eventually come close to some of the times he put up in the prime of his career. But Phelps is a bit miffed that he's not going faster, only now realizing how difficult it is to return from a long layoff.
