Blinded by the Light: In collaboration with the Marina Abramovic Institute
Over the course of four days, Millie Brown will immerse herself in a room of light and looping sound, while grains of sand gradually fall onto her head and body until she is completely covered. The performance will result in Brown buried in a pyramid of sand, physically marking time. Brown explores elements of stillness, time, and meditation in this work, while inviting the public to share moments of deep concentration. Through four cycles of the sun, Brown will continuously submerse herself in light, allowing her body and mind to absorb its energy in all forms: physically, sonically, and symbolically. Focusing on the actual sound of the sun, she aims to transcend into a state of pure light.
This work is an extension of Brown's interest in exploring durational timebased art. In the artist's own words, "bathed in a singular column of light from ceiling to floor, with a constant stream of sand falling from above representing the time of light decelerated to allow myself to exist in an alternate plane of time in space. My body will be immersed in a pyramid of light and time, creating a vessel, in which I will solely exist throughout the performance." Brown will engage with traditional methods of passing time in eastern religion. The sound component of the piece is appropriated from NASA recordings of the sound of sun, collected by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft, launched into orbit in 1995.

As the job market improves, more workers are leaving old jobs for new ones. According to the Labor Department's Job Opening and Labor Turnover survey (JOLTS) the number of voluntary quits increased by 15 percent at the end of May. Upon departure from your old employer, one of the big decisions to make is what to do with your retirement plan. There are generally three choices: leave the money in the old plan; rollover the funds from the old plan into the future employer's plan; or rollover the funds into a IRA account at a brokerage or mutual fund firm. To determine which option is best, you have to do a little homework. The first step is to figure out the fees you are paying in your current plan and compare them with the details of the new plan. While there has been more publicity about the high costs of investing inside of employer-sponsored plans, including last year's terrific PBS episode of Frontline called "The Retirement Gamble", many people still don't realize that fees among plans and the specific investments within the plans, can vary dramatically.
If the old plan offers plenty of choices at a reasonable expense level, and the new plan is an expensive one, you may be better off staying put. But increasingly, more Americans who are retiring or moving onto new jobs are transferring the assets from old plans into individual retirement accounts (IRAs). According to financial-services research firm Cerulli Associates, investors moved $321 billion from employer-sponsored plans to individual retirement accounts in 2012, up about 60 percent in the past decade.
Some of these investors want the freedom to control where they put their money and want to increase the number of asset class options inside their retirement accounts. However, many have fallen prey to the financial services industry, which has waged a competitive war for retirement dollars that aims to retain and capture retirement assets. Some firms offer cash incentives to roll over assets, while others offer a variety of "bonuses" that can seem too juicy to turn down. As a result, some investors are being unknowingly lured into products that contain higher fees than the plain vanilla index fund found in their old employer's plan.
Because the government oversees and enforces most employer-based retirement plans there is a keen interest in how rollovers are handled. Specifically, the feds are concerned that the advice to move assets from an employer plan into a new product inside an IRA, may be "suitable" for investors, it may not but not in their best interests.
The distinction brings up the "F-Word", or the fiduciary standard, which requires financial professionals to act in the best interests of their clients. You may think that any broker or insurance agent is obligated to do so, but they are generally held to a much looser standard, called "suitability." In other words, the product or advice they are providing needs only to be suitable for you, rather than in your best interests.
Both the Department of Labor Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have been wrestling with whether to extend the fiduciary standard of care to any financial professional that provides personalized investment advice to retail customers, including those individuals and firms who make retirement plan recommendations. Last year the U.S. Government Accountability Office found that financial companies that administer 401(k) plans misled GAO investigators posing as employees leaving their jobs, telling them they would almost always be better off if they shifted to IRAs that the companies also managed.
Not surprisingly, the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA), the trade association that lobbies on behalf of the financial services industry, has opposed imposing regulation that would be too strict, because it would "limit consumer choice". The more cynical will note that the fiduciary standard would put a big dent into commissions generated by firms and their salespeople, especially those who recommend fee-rich products inside rollover accounts.
Before you transfer assets from retirement plans into IRAs, make sure that you understand the costs involved. You may find that the boring old 401(k) plan is the more efficient – and less complicated – option.

Welcome to the bull & the bun!
So thrilled to have this be my first post! Alex has been doing an amazing job with the photography and I am so proud of him for this first shoot. Great lighting, huh? I had been searching for at least a year for the perfect light camel cashmere sweater but to no avail. Cashmere is often pricey and I wasn't yet willing to shell out my kidneys for a great sweater with a great fit. I stumbled upon this one on Gilt.com (hit me up if you need an invite!) and it fits like a dream. The v neck hits at the perfect spot and the cashmere feels wonderful now that the days are growing chilly.

Gold investment is a long-term investment scheme involving low risks. People willing to invest in gold have a natural advantage because the demand for gold is much more than its actual supply. The price of gold is generally in a continual rise. However, investors should not invest all their funds in one kind of gold investment.
The gold industry is huge and has many facets, and a savvy investor can exploit this. Money can be invested directly in gold mines, for example, which can be more lucrative than investing in physical gold.
Benefits of gold investment
- Gold is a popular form of saving
- Gold is indestructible
- Gold is a major requirement in the jewelry industry
- The malleability and ductility of gold make it very useful
- Gold can be transported easily
- Gold is the universal standard against which the value of any object can be assessed
- It retains as well as appreciates in value
Gold investors prefer to buy gold in its cheapest forms such as krugerrands, sovereigns and bars. Gold bars are the cheapest while gold sovereigns, because of their smaller size, are worth paying an extra premium for.

MicroLink Devices, Inc. reports that its three-junction epitaxial lift-off (ELO) thin-film solar cell achieved a 37.75% power conversion efficiency, certified by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The testing was under the industry standard air mass 1.5 global (AM1.5G) simulated 1-Sun solar spectrum.
In other company news, the U.S. Navy awarded the company Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBTT) grants for Phase I and Phase II programs. Additionally, the company won a NASA SBIR Phase II Program grant to develop phosphide-based four-junction and five-junction radiation hardened solar cells with efficiency above 35 percent for future NASA missions.
MicroLink Devices asserts that the 37.75% efficiency is the highest reported efficiency for a triple junction ELO solar cell produced on a 6-inch GaAs substrate production platform and says that the solar cell design exceeds 3000 W/kg under 1-sun AM0 spectrum, which is the world's record power to weight ratio compared all other solar cell technologies.
MicroLink notes that its proprietary ELO process allows the peeling off thin layers of active solar cell material previously deposited on a GaAs semiconductor substrate. The company also points out that that the expensive GaAs substrate can be reused multiple times.
MicroLink Devices Awarded Grants
For the Phase I program grant, the Navy needs to make its sonobuoys ready for deployment and operation at any time without requiring peripheral charging equipment or human intervention. MicroLink Devices will develop a floating solar array that will be rolled up inside the sonobuoy before deployment. When combined with rechargeable batteries, the array should continuously power a sonobuoy for several years.
The U.S. Navy also awarded the company an STTR Phase II Program grant for integrating solar sheets produced with company's inverted metamorphic multi-junction (IMM) multi-junction ELO solar cell fabrication technology onto the Navy's PUMA Unmanned Aerial Surveillance (UAS) platform. For the Puma, the output power from the solar-enhanced wing will be over 130 W and should enable 8 or more hours of flight.
The company will present its latest solar cell technology at the Space Power Workshop in Los Angeles (April 23-27) and IEEE Photovoltaics Specialists Conference in Waikoloa, HI (June 10-15).

Dentist's are all the same, right? Just open the yellow pages, they have lots of them. Simply point your finger, spin a bottle, whatever– all dental professionals are the same, and getting a cavity filled isn't really brain surgical treatment."
Well, that tail end is true anyhow– filling a cavity isn't the exact same thing as operating on somebody's brain. However neither is giving a flu shot. Neither is setting a broken arm. Neither is prescribing medication for among the million disorders of winter, or among the million ailments of summertime, etc. Yet you wouldn't go to just anyone to have one of those things done– you're extremely cautious when it comes to a medical professional. Ways to pick a dental practitioner, then, is a pretty crucial concern. How to choose a dental practitioner is as crucial as how to pick a medical professional– heck, you would not randomly pick a mechanic to work on your car, would you? Naturally not! Your car's too important for that, it gets you from place to location.
The concern of ways to pick a dental practitioner indicates numerous things. The best ways to pick a dental practitioner might indicate the best ways to really go about finding a dental practitioner, any dentist. The best ways to pick a dentist might indicate how to discover one with a character that matches your own, or that yours can agree. The best ways to select a dental practitioner might suggest how to select the very best dentist. The best ways to select dental practitioner may suggest ways to select a sort of dental practitioner, that is, exists a distinction in between getting a root canal and a routine filling? The best ways to select a dental practitioner might even mean something complicated like ways to discover a dental professional that uses the latest sort of filling rather than the outdated kind. Etc. How to pick a dental expert implies all sorts of thing.
Maybe some people don't take picking a dental expert seriously (or the concept of selecting a dental expert seriously, anyway) since lots of us take our teeth for granted. We don't need to go in to get our teeth dealt with in a severe way extremely typically. They're simply these huge tough things in our mouths that we chew and smile with. However when you consider how essential your teeth really are, your mindset towards choosing a dental practitioner changes. Not only do your teeth provide the structure for your face– if your teeth collapse, your face opts for them– your teeth permit you to survive in that they help you chew food to the point that it can be digested, and they permit you to delight in life in that they assist you eat any sort of food you desire, prepared the method you want it.
When something goes wrong with your teeth, it's really difficult to set it right once again. Your dental practitioner makes sure that your teeth stay in sufficient condition that you're never ever in any serious danger of major tooth problems. One way to select a dental professional is to go by word of mouth. Whom do your buddies see? Whom would they suggest? Ask your good friends. Inquire about things like rates, character, accessibility, convenience, complete satisfaction, etc. Ask about other dental practitioners they've seen, who they might not have actually taken pleasure in as much.
The Internet is another method of trying to find a great dental expert. With the Internet you can be extremely particular when selecting a dental professional. Think for us, dental experts aren't just in the phonebook any longer according to Marketing For Dentists. They need to earn a living too, right? The majority of your local dental professionals are a couple of essential clicks away. You can look them up, see exactly what they do, find phone numbers, even sometimes read client reports. And if you wish to know about root canals, type in root canals. If you wish to know about teeth lightening, type teeth whitening.
Given the fact that it's fairly easy to discover a dentist this days, no individual has an excuse not to make some kind of search. Utilizing the resources of the phonebook, word of mouth, and the Internet, you must have no problem finding an excellent dental expert who will fit all your needs. https://www.completedentalmarketing.com/

String of pearls,
Silk dress,
Diamond rings,
Nothing but the best.
Stocks and bonds
Old money blue and pure
The little pills you're taking,
Make it all seem just fine,
To make your conscience quiet,
You wash them down with wine,
The mirror stopped lying,
Twenty long years ago,
A lonely shell of the women,
Who sold her soul for gold.
Tropic sun
Breakfast in bed
Russian Caviar
Private plane
Jet set
French resort
Nothing but the best
Late in the evening
When the shadows fall
You find yourself walking
Down a cheap hotel hall
In search of what you're missing
In your life so replete
With his money you buy
What his cold heart depletes
The little pills you're taking
Make it all seem just fine
To make your conscience quiet
You wash them down with wine
The mirror stopped lying
Twenty long years ago

Northern Irish construction firm Patton has gone into administration after 100 years of trading.
The Ballymena-based firm has a turnover of around £140 million and employs 320 staff. It put the decision down to "extremely challenging trading conditions".
The business will continue to trade while the administrator, Tom Keenan of Keenan CF explores options for the future of the company including the sale of all or parts of the company.
Chairman Neil Patton said: "This is a very sad day for everyone connected to this family business and the communities we have served for the last 100 years.
"The directors have looked at every possible option to avoid administration, but it became inevitable because of the general downturn in the building sector, pressure on margins and the resultant impact on cashflow."
It saw a £5.8m pre-tax loss in 2012 financial year. In 2011 it saw a £10m loss.
Patton worked for Tesco and other big retailers.
It won a £45m deal for a mixed use Tesco development in Salford in October. Just last week it was celebrating the completion of a major refurbishment at John Lewis Milton Keynes.

Root Vegetable and Feta Phyllo Tart
Root veggies are great for roasting and there are few better ways to eat them than on a big ol' pile of crispy phyllo pastry.
- Makes : 6-8 |
- Difficulty: easy
- Prep Time : 30 mins |
- Cook Time : 15 mins
The Veggies
500 g butternut, diced
olive oil
salt and pepper
The Tart
½ C (125 m) butter, melted
1 medium red onion, sliced into rounds
a big handful of crumbled feta
The Garnish
a small handful of wood sorrel
a small handful of fresh thyme
balsamic reduction for drizzling
olive oil, for drizzling
The Veggies
Boil the beetroots in a medium-size saucepan over high heat until almost cooked through. Allow the beetroots to cool, then use your fingers to rub off the skin.
Split the beetroots in half and toss them onto a roasting tray. Add the butternut and drizzle all of the veggies generously with a good quality local olive oil and season with salt and pepper.Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
Roast the veggies for 20 minutes or until the butternut is cooked through. If you want to give the butternut a little colour, grill for a few minutes, but keep an eye on it and don't let it get too brown as it will still roast when the pastry cooks. Leave the veggies in the roasting tray to cool until you need them to assemble the tart.
The Tart
Reduce the oven temperature to 180 °C.
Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
Lay the first sheet of phyllo pastry carefully onto the tray and brush all over with butter. Lay the second sheet of pastry carefully on top of the first and brush all over with butter. Repeat until you have a stack of 5 layers of pastry.
Arrange the onion slices on the pastry, and then top with the roasted butternut and beetroot and finish with the crumbled feta.
Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes while keeping an eye on it. When the edges of the pastry are golden brown it's time to take the tart out of the oven.
Allow to cool for 5 minutes then top with the garnish of wild rocket, wood sorrel and thyme. Cut into your desired shape and serve drizzled with balsamic reduction and olive oil.

I love seeing people's running music. I generally listen to a mix of classic country (Gene Autry, Riders in the Sky, Jerry Reed, etc.), newer pop with a good beat and older (90's) alternative. Oh, and some show tunes in there for good measure! Here's my playlist from the 5K Saturday!
Songs that I heard on shuffle:
TiK ToK-Ke$sha (At the start line, this is a nice song that has a good, consistent beat to start off with.)
Rock and Roll Music-The Beatles
Kids in America-Bloodhound Gang
Let It Rock-Kevin Rudolph (pressed skip on this one, not feeling it)
Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now-HairSpray
Jai Ho-Slumdog Millionaire
She's So Lovely-Scouting for Girls
Dragostea Din Tei-O-Zone
Scotty Doesn't Know-Lustra
I Wish I Was Queer So I Could Get Chicks-Bloodhound Gang
Don't Let the Stars Get in Your Eyes-Skeets McDonald (As I approached the last 1/4 mile or so, this was such a nice, peppy song to end on!)
Songs on my list that didn't play during the run:
Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo-Bloodhound Gang
You Can't Stop the Beat-Hairspray
That's Not My Name-The Ting Tings
One Night in Bangkok-Murray Head
I Don't Feel Like Dancin'-Scissor Sisters
Sexy Bitch-David Guetta
Fit but You Know It-The Streets

Thanks for reading and following along :)
Shoot. I now realize that my 2010 IL Marathon playlist is entirely show-tune free. Ouch. Miss Saigon is a perennial favorite... I'll have to bring her back for my next race! (And if I don't sub-4 on 5/1, I'll know why!)ReplyDelete

IOC invites record number of National Olympic Committees (NOCs)
Exactly one year before the Opening Ceremony of the Games of the XXVIII Olympiad in Athens, Greece, 201 NOCs - a record number in Olympic history - have been invited to take part.
Out of the 201 invitations, the IOC President Jacques Rogge signed, in front of attending guests during a ceremony held in Lausanne, those to the NOCs of the countries hosting the upcoming Games - namely Greece, Italy, China, Canada - followed by the NOCs of the 9 cities bidding for 2012 - namely Brazil, Cuba, France, Germany, Great Britain, Russia, Spain, Turkey, United States of America -, then the newly recognised NOCs - Timor-Leste and Kiribati - and recently reinstated Afghanistan, and last, but not least, Switzerland.
The invitation for Greece was accepted by Lambis V. Nikolaou, President of the Greek Olympic Committee and Switzerland's invitation by Walter Kägi, President of the Swiss Olympic Association.
The highest number of participating NOCs was 199 at the Sydney Games in 2000. As underlined by President Rogge during today's event, should all NOCs accept the IOC's invitation, this record will also be broken. 10,500 athletes are expected to compete in Athens between 13 and 29 August 2004.
Afghanistan, Timor-Leste and Kiribati
The rise in NOC participation is due to the reinstatement of Afghanistan, which rejoined the Olympic family after its suspension during the Taliban regime, and to the addition of two new NOCs: Timor-Leste and Kiribati which were recently recognised.
IOC Helps Iraq
The IOC President expressed his hope that a delegation from Iraq might also participate in Athens. All efforts are currently underway by the IOC to re-build the Iraqi National Olympic Committee before next summer, and to enable the participation of its athletes. "Athens 2004 may stage the most universal Games ever", Rogge said.
Games Preparations and a Legacy for Generations to Come
The President of the Organising Committee for Athens 2004 (ATHOC), Mrs Gianna Angelopoulos-Daskalaki assured the numerous guests and media representatives in Lausanne, that Athens will be definitively ready for the Games. "We are also extremely pleased that the sport events which have started last week are going well", she said. During the month of August seven sport events are organised in Athens in order to test the venues, the teams and the technical infrastructure.
The IOC awarded the Games to Athens in 1997, since then the Greek capital has taken an "Olympic shape". The IOC as well as ATHOC are convinced that the Athens Games will be a sporting, social and economic legacy that will last for future generations. The countdown for the final preparations have started now: 366 more days till the Olympic Games will return to the country of their birth.

Academic Language Therapy instruction is explicit, structured, systematic and cumulative. Dyslexia therapy lessons contain the 5 components (Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency, and Comprehension) of effective reading instruction supported by the National Reading Panel, and mandated by Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).
The History of Language (Etymology)
Understanding the origin of the English language and how it influences reading and spelling rules provide a framework for understanding the layers of the English language. Students learn high utility affixes, Latin roots, and Greek combining forms.
Identification of the letters of the alphabet is an important early literacy skill since it is the foundation for developing all reading, writing and spelling skills.
Phonemic Awareness
Being aware that individual sounds blend together to make words is a critical skill to be mastered. Students learn all 44 phonemes, 96 graphemes-phoneme correspondences, and 87 affixes. A deficit in phonemic awareness is an indicator that students will most likely experience difficulty in learning to read.
Students learn the most reliable patterns used to decode words. Lessons begin with the most common, high utility letters and move to more complex combinations. Etymology is applied to word analysis strategies.
Students are taught morphology, word relationships, idioms, syntax, and semantics.
Automaticity and Fluency
Fluency practice begins with students reading at the most basic word level, then moves to phrases and sentences, and continues to more complex structures. It is critical that instant words (sight words) are practiced, as they constitute the most common words encountered in English.
The ultimate goal of reading is comprehension. Narrative and expository text are used to teach critical skills such as grammar, vocabulary, story structure, reasoning, critical thinking, inferencing, summarizing and listening.
Students learn how letter patterns are attached to the meaning and how it influences spelling choice. Proper procedures for application are taught and practiced.
Cursive handwriting is the cornerstone for reinforcing a multisensory approach to learning to read, write, and spell. Emphasis is placed on learning approach strokes, proportion (size), directionality, and proper grip.
Verbal and Written Expression
Students are engaged in lessons that begin with the development of receptive and expressive language skills and progress to written expression, which includes formal composition.
Study Skills, Organization and Learning Strategies
Students are taught the critical learning, organizing, and study strategies to enhance success at school and home.
The complete transformation that we have seen since our son started working with Mrs. Chapman has led to our decision to have him continue working with her for as long as possible. Mrs. Chapman has a very warm, approachable way about her, and makes our son feel at ease. She has always been professional and kind to us, answered all our questions. Mrs. Chapman is also very open to meeting with teachers and principals to help them understand what she does, and why dyslexic students need accommodations. K.P. and B.P.
Fill in the contact form below and submit.
You will be contacted to arrange a day and time for you and your child to meet with me.
Once your child is accepted as a student, you will receive communication with instructions to fill out an enrollment form.
After your enrollment form is received, the days and times of your lessons will be scheduled.
Before academic language therapy instruction begins, baseline assessments will be administered to develop an individualized instructional plan.
Please provide some additional information and Tara will contact you within 2 business days.

Prof. A. G. Rao, what a man. He impressed us from the first minute on with his big knowledge, his experience and his great sense of humor. In the 1980s he founded the Bambu Studio at the IDC IIT Bombay. The objective was to break the low status given to bamboo and its craftsmen in the society (bamboo products were looked at as cheap products made by lower casts). Therefore he started to promote bamboo as a material, organize workshops and add value by encouraging designers to work with bamboo.
To discuss with Prof. Rao as an expert and pioneer in bamboo was not only very enriching but also lead to another great opportunity: We met Gangamma. She is a skilled bamboo craftswoman and trainer in Bombay. Earlier she manufactured with her community of around 100 people products that were developed at Prof. Rao's Bambu Studio together with students. In her workshop we got the chance to work hands on and make some bamboo weaving experiences.

Feb 3, 2019, 12:09 PM
I guess i'm making this post in an attempt to relieve my stress from a whole week of shiny hunting. I completed the living dex (for the shiny charm) before restarting my game, then after beating it, I decided to get the full odds shinies out of the way first, as it is my goal to catch every legendary/Ultra Beast in US/UM shiny. (with the exception of Cosmog, Lunala, Solgaleo, and the Tapus as they are shiny locked) For those who don't know, Poipole and Type: Null are given to you in the game and therefore are not affected by the shiny charm, so their odds remain at 1/4096. It took me three days, but I finally got a shiny Poipole. I am currently working on shiny Type: Null, but i'm losing motivation. The routine of taping down the circle pad to the right and putting a rubber band around L+R and spamming A through the whole interaction with Wicke and Hau is getting old. I need motivation. Shiny hunting stories, music, inspirational quotes, anything at this point would be helpful. God help me.

12 Months OPT: How to Apply
When to Apply
Apply early! Do not wait for a job offer. You do not need a job offer to apply for OPT. Allow THREE MONTHS FOR PROCESSING by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), plus additional time for obtaining your academic adviser's signature on the OPT Request Form. You cannot work until you receive OPT approval.
You may submit your application to USCIS as early as 90 days before your program end date and up to 60 days after your program end date. (Your program end date is the last day of your final semester, including final exams week, according to the academic calendar.) Please note that your OPT application must arrive at the USCIS Service Center within 30 days of the OPT I-20 issue date, or the request will be denied.
The study abroad office strongly encourages you to apply for OPT three months prior to your program end date. Though USCIS will accept your application up to 60 days after your program end date, you cannot begin work until the application is approved. A delayed application may result in delayed work authorization and/or loss of full OPT eligibility (12 months) due to the three-month processing time by USCIS.
How to Apply
Please read the following instructions carefully. And if further questions arise please see the study abroad office. We do not approve the application or have the authority to influence the process. If there is a request for information or to correct a problem, we will notify you of the request but it is your responsibility to respond. Please note that if you choose to travel, it could be difficult to respond to requests from USCIS about your application.
- Complete your OPT application. (See below for details.)
- Submit OPT application to Dr. Petoskey in the Study Abroad Office. (See below for details.)
- Pick up OPT application from Dr. Petoskey and mail to USCIS. (See below for details.)
Step 1: Complete Your OPT Application
Gather the Following Documents
- Completed Optional Practical Training Request Form (Come by the study abroad office to pick it up)
- Completed I-765 Form
- Photocopy of all previously issued I-20s (pages 1 and 3)
- Photocopy of passport identification page
- Photocopy of F-1 visa page
- Two passport-style photos (see Photo Specifications below)
- Photocopy of the front and back of your I-94 card–or, if you do not have an I-94 card, a copy of your F-1 admission stamp in your passport and a printout of your electronic I-94 information, which can be obtained at CBP.gov/I94
- Photocopy of previously issued EAD (if applicable, EAD is if you previously held a OPT employment card)
- $410 check or money order payable to "U.S. Department of Homeland Security" (Do not postdate your check. The date format for your check should be as follows: month/day/year)
- Completed G-1145 Form (optional; it signs you up for email/text message notification of your application's arrival at USCIS)
Choosing an OPT Start Date
- The "start date" is the date your work permission begins. You cannot work earlier than the start date, but you can start working later.
- Your requested start date must be within 60 days after your program completion date. For example, if you graduate or complete your exchange program June 8, your start date can be no later than August 7.
- Changing the requested OPT dates after the application has been mailed to USCIS can be very difficult. Choose your dates carefully.
Photo Requirements
- USCIS photo instructions (see the "Required Documentation" section on page 6)
- The photos must have been taken within the last 30 days (do not use the same photos used for your F-1 visa application; USCIS might notice and will return the application).
- The two photos should have a white background.
- They should be unmounted, printed on thin paper, glossy, and not re-touched.
- The photos should show a passport-style, full-face image, with both ears visible.
- The photos should be 2 by 2 inches, with the distance from the top of the head to just below the chin about 1 3/8 inches.
- Lightly print your name and your I-94 number in pencil on the back of each photo.
Tips for completing your I-765
- Item 3: Your Receipt Notice and Employment Authorization Document (EAD card) will be mailed to the address you provide. In most cases, we recommend you use the study abroad office address.
Indira A.C. Petoskey, Ph.D.
Wood Support Services Center, Room 100D
83 Windham Street
Willimantic, CT 06226 -2295
If you will move soon, note that government mail will not be forwarded, even if you file a change of address request with the U.S. Postal Service. The Study Abroad office will need a photocopy of your EAD card. If you use our office address, we will automatically make the photocopy after receiving the EAD and will email you to pick up your card. If it is mailed to your address, you must provide us with a copy.
- Item 10: Use the number from your I-94 card (the printed version/online). It is an 11-digit number.
- Item 11: Check "yes" only if you have previously received an EAD card from USCIS. Curricular Practical Training (CPT) does not require a "yes" answer because CPT is not authorized by USCIS.
- Items 12,13,14,15: Use the information from your I-94 card. In some cases you may have made recent short trips to Canada or Mexico, which are not reflected by your current I-94 card. This is standard and it will be fine to use the information from your I-94 card anyway. If you have changed to F-1 status within the U.S., include a copy of your Approval Notice.
- Item 16: Use the applicable code:
- Pre-completion OPT: (c)(3)(A)
- Post-completion OPT: (c)(3)(B)
- Item 17: Leave blank unless you are a STEM major applying for the 17-month OPT extension.
- Certification: Sign the form in blue ink.
Step 2: Submit Your Completed OPT Application to the Study Abroad office
Submit your completed OPT application (except the check) to Dr. Petoskey. She will double check the application and make sure nothing is missing before you send it to the USCIS.
Step 3: Mail Your Application to USCIS
- Review the checklist and your application to make sure it is complete.
- Sign your OPT-endorsed I-20 at the bottom of page 1 before photocopying it and mailing it to USCIS.
- Mail your application within 30 days of the new OPT-endorsed I-20 being issued. Late applications will be denied by USCIS.
- Do not mail your original passport, I-94, or I-20.
- It is recommended you send your application by certified mail, return receipt requested.
- If your I-765 mailing address is in Connecticut mail the entire application to:
USCIS Dallas Lockbox
For U.S. Postal Service (USPS) Deliveries:
PO Box 660867
Dallas, TX 75266
For Express mail and courier deliveries:
Attn: AOS
2501 S. State Hwy. 121 Business
Suite 400
Lewisville, TX 75067
After You Mail Your OPT Application to USCIS
USCIS will send you a receipt notice (I-797 Notice of Action) confirming receipt of your OPT application, assigning a "receipt date," and assigning a case number. Carefully review the notice to make sure your name is spelled correctly. If it is not, contact Dr. Petoskey immediately.
You may use the case number on your receipt notice to check the status of your application online. It is normal for your case status to say "initial review" for most of the 2-3 month processing period.
You may not begin employment until USCIS approves the OPT application and you have received your Employment Authorization Document (EAD). Authorized OPT dates will be on your EAD.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I move after I mail my OPT application?
The U.S. Postal Service will not foward mail from USCIS if the address on the envelope does not match the name on the mailbox. Consider using the study abroad office address on the I-765 application. We will send you an email when the card arrives.
How long does it take to get approved for OPT?
Approximately three months from the date USCIS receives your application, though it can be faster depending on the time of year.
If I change my mind and decide not to work, can I cancel my OPT authorization?
The answer depends on your situation. If you were issued a new I-20 with the OPT recommendation but have not yet mailed your application to USCIS, you must notify Dr. Petoskey of your change in plans, she will then be able to cancel your application.
If you have already mailed your application to USCIS, a request can be submitted to USCIS to halt processing. Your application fee will not be returned and we cannot guarantee that your request will be honored. Contact Dr. Petoskey for assistance. If you have received your EAD card and wish to cancel authorization, contact Dr. Petoskey. Cancellation in this situation is highly unlikely. OPT application are not meant to be cancelled.
I didn't submit my OPT application early enough, and I realize I might not get the OPT start date I requested. How do I know what date USCIS will authorize?
Unfortunately it is difficult to estimate. The authorization depends on when the application arrives and the workload at USCIS. If they process your application after your requested start date, they might defer the start date to their day of processing, up to 60 days after your program end date. However, there is no way to predict which date it will be.
How long does it take to get the Receipt Notice/Notice of Action (NOA)?
Approximately two-to-three weeks after USCIS receives your application. You might verify with your bank whether your check has been cashed. If so, the NOA is likely on the way.
When I receive my EAD card, should I give a copy to the Study Abroad office?
Yes, if you requested your EAD be mailed to you directly, submit a photocopy to the Study Abroad office. If your EAD is mailed to us first, we will make a photocopy before you pick up the EAD.
I have heard that I can apply for a "temporary" EAD card. Is this true?
In the past, students were able to apply for a temporary EAD card if their application was pending for more than 90 days. Processes have changed, and temporary EADs are no longer issued. If your application is pending for more than 90 days, contact Dr. Petoskey for more information.
What happens if my EAD card never arrives or has incorrect information on it?
Contact the study abroad office immediately!
What if I lose my EAD card?
If you lose your card, you must apply and pay for a replacement. Complete a new I-765 Form and resubmit it to USCIS with all supporting documents, including the fee. Contact Dr. Petoskey for an updated I-20. We recommend you keep your EAD at home (not in your wallet) because of the expense and time in applying for a replacement.

Gluten-free and deliciously light with a kiss of lemon, I really wish I could claim these blueberries were from my kitchen garden. A friend gifted me some dried wild blueberries and they barely lasted a day before I ate (and baked) them all up. My own bushy little blueberry plant is still in it's infancy, though it's growing steadily through it's first spring. Next year I expect a decent crop – and plenty of berry recipes to share.
Made with polenta (yellow corn meal) and almond flour, there's no starches in these cookies and they are still as light as a feather. I definately recommend refrigerating the dough before baking (see instructions) to stop the cookies spreading too much. Use coconut butter and chia or psyllium eggs to make this vegan, dairy-free or egg-free.
- 1 lemon
- 125g organic unsalted butter, room temperature (or coconut butter fo dairy-free/vegan cookies)
- ½ cup rapadura sugar
- 3 organic or biodynamic eggs (or psyllium eggs for egg-free/vegan cookies)
- 2 tbsp flax meal
- 1 cup polenta (yellow corn meal)
- 1 cup almond meal
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- ½ cup dried blueberries
- Preheat oven to 180C. Line baking trays with baking paper and put aside.
- Finely grate rind of lemon, add to a large bowl or stand mixer. Juice lemon and reserve.
- Use an electric beater or stand mixer to beat lemon rind with butter and sugar until pale and creamy. Add the eggs one by one, beating well with each addition. Mix in the lemon juice and the flax meal and let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
- After the resting period add the almond flour, polenta and baking powder and mix well to combine. Gently fold through the dried blueberries,
- Spoon tablespoon of mixture onto baking trays, allowing room for spread. Place baking trays in the fridge for 30min - 1 hour.
- After refrigeration bake for 15min or until golden around the edges. Cool on baking trays for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Showing @ Festival Theatre Dec 9-Jan 8
One of the most loved children's classics comes to Edinburgh for Christmas, along with all the pantos and cheesy tack a century after Frances Hodgson Burnett's book was first published, this influential, delicate story comes to life in Lucy Simon's (music) and Marsha Norman's (lyrics) musical adaptation.
Set in the early 20th century, Mary Lennox (Ellie Coldicutt and Sophie Kavanagh), comes back to England an orphan, after a cholera outbreak in British colonial India and changes the life of all who come into contact with her and the garden. The mysterious 'Secret Garden' unlocks the happiness that is missing from so many of the characters lives. This is a dark tale that has captivated generations of adults as well as children over 100 years.
Director Anna Linstrum has a great track record with her work with the Traverse Theatre and previous success with James and the Giant Peach, The Snow Queen and The Sound of Music. With Siobhan Redmond (Holby City), Norman Pace (Hale & Pace) and Graham Brickly (Bread), the child actors have some weighty characters to lean against if things get tough. If you are going to take all the family to see something this holiday period, go and see this.
