New Students
Upon admission to the University, students are notified that instructions will be sent by the Registrar's office before registration.
After the close of the preregistration-by-appointment period, all newly admitted or readmitted students are eligible to register. Students wishing to register for more than a normal course load must obtain approval from their Dean.
Former Students
Former students not currently enrolled must submit a reenrollment application see "Returning Students" above.
Currently Enrolled Students
Currently enrolled students are given the opportunity to preregister, by appointment, before all other students. Students wishing to preregister for the next semester in a different division or school must complete a Change of Division form available on line at the Admissions website, by calling (314) 516-5451, in the office of the Registrar or in the office of Admissions.
Students may enroll as auditors in any course with the prior consent of the instructor and Dean of the school or college in which the auditors desire to be registered. They may be dropped from the course when, in the judgment of the instructor and Dean, their record justifies such action. Auditors are charged full fees and receive no academic credit.
Registration Cancellation
Students who have enrolled and paid their fees but do not wish to attend the University may cancel their registration any time before the first day of the semester. Cancellation forms may be obtained at the Office of the Registrar. For the refund schedule for cancellation of registration after class work begins, see the Schedule of Courses.
Enrollment and Academic Advising
Undergraduate students are admitted to the college, school, or professional school which offers the degree program which was declared on the student's application. Undeclared students, visiting students, and non-degree-seeking students are admitted to the College of Arts and Sciences.
Undeclared students are encouraged to declare a major as soon as possible since it is important to determine what specific requirements must be satisfied to complete the baccalaureate program.
College of Arts and Sciences
All incoming undergraduate students are required to be advised. Advising services are available in the College Advising Office located in 303 Lucas or in their major department. Students who have declared majors are encouraged to contact their major departments as soon as possible. Please visit the College website for a complete list of Departmental Faculty Advisors.
The departments in the College of Arts and Sciences as well as the School of Social Work offer majors, minors, and certificates in the humanities, social sciences, mathematics and computer science, and the biological and physical sciences. Interdisciplinary programs are available in Liberal Studies, Women's and Gender Studies, gerontology, labor studies, conservation biology, trauma studies, and more. The college also serves students with interests in the health sciences, pre-law, and pre-journalism. Information on these areas may be obtained in the Office of Undergraduate Student Affairs of the College of Arts and Sciences, 303 Lucas Hall.
Since there are specific requirements that each major must satisfy to complete a baccalaureate program, students are urged to declare their majors as soon as possible. This may be done at the time of application, or later in the Office of Undergraduate Student Affairs. Once a student declares a major, the department offering the degree will assign a faculty adviser and contact the student. The adviser, usually a faculty member in the student's area of interest, will assist in selecting suitable courses and advise the student in matters relating to degree requirements.
Students with specific concerns related to the specialized degree requirements of the college should consult with the academic departments responsible for their majors. Questions regarding transfer credit as they relate to a specific degree may be directed to the appropriate department. Students may contact the Office of Undergraduate Student Affairs of the College of Arts and Sciences by phone at (314) 516-5501 for clarification on any academic issues related to the division or by e-mail at email@example.com
College of Business Administration
The College of Business Administration's office of undergraduate academic advising has a staff of professional academic advisors who provide assistance to students in planning their academic careers, and in dealing with: appropriate course selection; College of Business Administration requirements; general education requirements; evaluation of transfer credit; course prerequisites; school policies and regulations; and graduation requirements. Other matters related to a student's academic matriculation should also be directed to this office.
Transfer students who have been admitted to the College of Business Administration should contact the advising office and plan to meet with an advisor early in the semester for an evaluation of transfer credit and the planning of their degree programs.
All students are urged to make advising appointments early during each semester, prior to registration dates, to obtain approval of schedules for upcoming semesters. Advising is a continuous and ongoing process. For additional information, call (314) 516‑5888.
College of Education
Students wishing to prepare for teaching careers should consider the following:
Students who intend to teach in elementary, early childhood, middle school, special education, secondary education, or physical education settings must apply for admission to the College of Education.
Students who intend to teach in secondary school classrooms may choose to pursue the bachelor's degree in the College of Arts and Sciences plus certification, or the B.S. in education degree, which includes Missouri certification.
With either option, pre- and post-degree students must meet university and departmental requirements, as well as those for teacher education in Missouri. Regardless of which option a student chooses, he or she must complete the formal application to the teacher education program. Careful planning of individual schedules is necessary to ensure selection of appropriate courses and to avoid extending programs. Students should therefore seek advisory help from the TC&A (Teacher Certification and Advising ) Office at the earliest opportunity. Regular consultation with advisers is essential. The office provides assistance to all students interested in professional education programs and certification requirements. Questions about admission to the teacher education program, sequencing of courses, prerequisites, graduation requirements, and related matters should be directed to (314) 516-5937.
College of Fine
Arts and Communication
The College of Fine Arts and Communication includes the Department of Art and Art History, Communication, Music, and Theatre, Dance and Media Studies. These four departments offer eight degrees, both graduate and undergraduate. The College also serves students with interests in pre-architecture. The faculty and alumni of the College have distinguished themselves as scholars, visual artists, teachers and performers. The University's Touhill Performing Arts Center, which opened in the fall of 2003, provides two world-class venues for performances. In addition, three galleries offer space for display of student and faculty artwork as well as visiting exhibitions, and two labs support Communication Research.
The College of Fine Arts and Communication is further distinguished by its collaboration with the community. Endowed professorships link the University to the Saint Louis Symphony, The St. Louis Art Museum, Opera Theatre of St. Louis, the Laumeier Sculpture Park and a variety of other St. Louis cultural institutions.
Students interested in these degrees or in need of preliminary advising may contact the Office of Undergraduate Student Affairs at (314) 516-5501 for an appointment or referral to the department in which you are interested.
Students and prospective students are encouraged to contact the department advising coordinators for the program of individual study. Students who maintain a relationship with their department have greater opportunities to meet other students with similar interests as well as optimize their student experience.
College of Nursing
The College of Nursing offers the bachelor of science in nursing degree (B.S.N.) for non-RNs through a four-year or accelerated program of study. RNs who are graduates of diploma or associate degree nursing programs complete a junior‑senior B.S.N. complete option(RN to B.S.N.), which avoids repeating previous nursing education. With both options (pre- or post-licensure), students must meet university and College of Nursing requirements. The Master of Science in Nursing Degree Program is designed for the nurse who wishes to pursue advanced nursing practice. The College of Nursing's MSN program offers two functional roles: Nurse educator and nurse practitioner. A Post MSN Graduate Certificate also is available for master's prepared nurses who wish to pursue a new area of clinical specializaiton. The MSN with the Nurse Practitioner option and the post MSN graduate certificate prepare students for eligibility to apply for certifying exams for adult, family, pediatric, neonatal, or women's health. The Ph.D. program offers post-baccalaureate and post MSN tracks for students who wish to conduct research to improve the health status of high-risk populations, provide leadership to develop policies that promote health, and serve as collaborators and principal investigators on interdisciplinary research teams. Careful planning is necessary to assure appropriate course sequencing. Students are strongly encouraged to develop a plan of study in conjunction with a nursing academic adviser to avoid extending the program of study. The D.N.P. program prepares students at the highest level of clinical nursing practice to improve quality of care for individuals and populations through leadership in advanced practice and improving systems of care.
Faculty maintain the right to make appropriate curriculum changes to comply with standards for accreditation and approval as stipulated by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education and the Missouri State Board of Nursing's minimum standards.
Pierre Laclede Honors College
Honors Scholars receive both academic advising and personal counseling from the college's administrative and teaching staff throughout their undergraduate careers. During the first two years, particular attention is given to the ways in which students fulfill their Honors College and university general education requirements and prepare themselves for their majors by taking the necessary prerequisites. After a major is declared, Honors College advisement with regard to work done for honors credit continues and is supplemented by major‑related advising provided by the appropriate academic unit. The college identifies candidates for major graduate fellowships and assists them in preparing their dossiers. Similar assistance is given to scholars planning to go on to graduate and professional schools or seeking career opportunities immediately upon graduation.
Other Considerations
The University of Missouri has been directed by the Board of Curators to assess the outcomes of your university education. To this end two types of assessment are required: A test of general educational development given to a sample of incoming freshmen and graduating seniors who represent the university; and a test or project, specified by the major department, given to graduating seniors. As alumni, graduates are encouraged to participate in assessment by completing questionnaires sent to them by the university.
Academic Residence
Students must be in residence for at least 24 of the last 30 hours of graded credit (exclusive of courses graded on a satisfactory/unsatisfactory basis), except under unusual circumstances, to be decided by the dean.
Students should file a degree application form with their respective dean's office at least one year before the expected graduation date. (Students in the College Fine Arts and Communication should file their degree applications in 303 Lucas Hall). The dean's office makes a final check to determine that all graduation requirements have been met. Students should check with the dean's office or an adviser to be sure their program fulfills the requirements of the department and college or school, as well as the university general requirements. To assure graduating at the end of a specific semester, all work for that semester and any delayed grades from previous semesters must be completed with the grades sent to the Office of the Registrar no later than the official date for submission of final semester grades.
Course Schedules
Three times during the year, a Schedule of Courses is produced, listing the specific courses offered that semester and their meeting times and locations. This Schedule is posted on the UMSL web site, and available as follows:
Fall semester schedule: preceding
Winter semester schedule: preceding October.
Summer session schedule: preceding March.
The university reserves the right to cancel without notice any course listed in the Bulletin or the Schedule of Courses for any semester or to withdraw any course which does not have adequate enrollment.

Tulsa, bicycle friendly, and Ozzie someone...
The article highlights Jason Kearney and Gary Parker. A reporter accompanied Jason on his commute to work. Now if only we could get a reporter into a Smart Cycling class. Hint, hint.
First, a brief excerpt from the article:
Tulsa being peddled as 'bicycle friendly'
It's the first city in the state to gain a bronze ranking.
By SUSAN HYLTON World Staff Writer
Published: 5/15/2009 2:20 AM
Tulsa has become the first city in Oklahoma to receive a bronze ranking from the League of American Bicyclists, designating it as a "bicycle friendly community."
That pleases area cyclists and bike club members who have already found cycling to be a healthy, economical and pollution-free way to get to work.
They also find that there are plenty of cycling events, including Friday's Bike-to-Work Day, in which cyclists descend on Williams Green at Third Street and Boston Avenue from 6:30 to 8:30 a.m.
Now, the comments:
If Tulsa didn't have the River Parks bike path, I would not ride my bicycle. Our streets are too narrow, and since Tulsans are not used to sharing the road with a bicyclist, I'd likely end up maimed or dead.
I'd like them to explain "bicycle Friendly" to my husband who has had glass bottles thrown at him numerous times and who was actually hit from behind.
If you can show me a way to SAFELY bicycle from my neighborhood in BA at 91st & 145th to my job on in Tulsa South 46th Street between Memorial and Mingo without getting run over then I'll put my fat hiney on a bike every day. Maybe my hiney wouldn't be so fat if I rode a bike that far every day
Bikes should have to have lights and a license tag if they are traveling on streets and highways,they should also have insurance coverage,and should be required to follow all traffic laws,like not peddling thru red lights and crosswalks.
bicyclists are rude and ride their bikes illegally. they ride in groups that think they own the road. they don't ride single file. they run stop signs and they hender traffic by riding slow. they are not even street legal.
As for those who ride through red lights & signs, HIT EM', that'll teach em' and if you see someone riding with headphones on, go out of your way to teach them a lesson about stupidity....
You may have a guilty conscience later but you'll know in your heart you were right and your bumper may someday become a badge of honor for you....
Share the road with bicyclists, please. You can't be in so much of a hurry that you can't take a few seconds to encourage people who are doing a good thing. A lot of nice people get behind the wheel of a car and turn into jerks. Don't be one of them.
Hard to imagine riding a bicycle on Tulsa streets. It's dangerous being a pedestrian.
Automobile drivers are rude and ride their cars illegally. they ride in groups that think they own the road. they don't ride single file. they run stop signs and they hender (hinder) traffic by riding slow. they are not even street legal.
Tulsa is not bicycle friendly. On of the biggest problems is the bikers themselves. they seem to think they own the road and can get away with anything. The other problem is that bicyclist is Tulsa seem to think that everyone needs to watch out for them, its the other way around. I am not the one with 360 degree viewing range. Here are some of the problems..
No bikes paths on main roads
Roads to narrow
Idiot drivers in Tulsa
Idiot bikers in Tulsa
Bicyclist slow down traffic
They are dangerous on one lane dead man turn roads
Bicyclist can not go 35
Most of the pedestrian and biker deaths in Tulsa have been because of their own stupidity.
and if you see someone riding with headphones on, go out of your way to teach them a lesson about stupidity....
So there you have it. The bike friendly article was fairly standard boilerplate about the award, area cycling conditions, etc. But the comments are sheer lunacy! You know, I've written a couple of zombie apocalypse stories about the walking dead, and while they're the stuff of nightmares, they're still kind of fun to write. Little did I know that they're already among us, but instead of shambling around in the streets shedding body parts as they rot off, they're sitting at home in their shabby pajamas, stabbing grubby fingers into keyboards.
Maybe we should contact the teachers who had these folks as students, and ask them to adopt the line from Shelly's "Ozymandias" as a motto - "Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"
While that's meant as sarcasm, it holds an underlying truth. These people are terrified of riding a bicycle in traffic. They can't imagine anyone doing so without becoming a hood ornament on an SUV. They're hopelessly wrong in a multitude of ways, but there really is an antidote to the fear and ignorance so stunningly displayed. That antidote is bicycling education. Not bike lanes. Not multi-use paths. Not cycletracks. People can learn to ride safely and comfortably on area streets. It's not rocket science. It's called vehicular cycling and it's motto is: "Cyclists fare best when they act, and are treated, as drivers of vehicles."

Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett hates "the Rust Belt" as a moniker for the Great Lakes region — who likes rust? — so he's been pushing for a more apt nickname:
The Fresh Coast.
"That captures who we are, and it captures who Chicago is, and it captures who Cleveland is," Barrett said. "We are cities that were built on the Great Lakes. And now as the economies have changed, as the water issues have changed, this is becoming a greater and greater economic and demographic strength for us."
Lake Michigan is synonymous with Chicago and Milwaukee for reasons that are especially apparent this time of year, as people play and lounge on its beaches,...

All News Releases By Date
EPA Completes Cleanup System for Soil, Water Contamination in Grants, NM
Release Date: 11/02/2012
Contact Information: Dave Bary or Jennah Durant, 214 665-2200 or firstname.lastname@example.com
(DALLAS - November 2, 2012) Today the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the New Mexico Environment Department marked the completion of a new system to address contamination from a plume of chemicals in Grants, New Mexico. The chemicals, called chlorinated solvents, are believed to have come from a dry-cleaning business. The contamination spread through soils and a shallow aquifer under the city, which led the EPA to designate the site for cleanup under the Superfund program.
The new system includes more than 570 wells placed throughout the plume. The wells are filled with emulsified vegetable oil, which stimulates the breakdown of the chlorinated solvents. The EPA also installed systems within 15 private residences that prevent vapors from contaminated soil from entering the homes. These structures complement earlier treatments that extracted about 1,000 pounds of contamination.
Prolonged exposure to the main contaminant, tetra chloroethene or PCE, can damage the nervous system and cause liver and kidney problems. The cleanup prevented contamination from spreading to the city's drinking water wells, located two miles north of the plume, and to the San Andreas aquifer, the source of drinking water for Grants and nearby Milan, New Mexico.
More about the EPA's work in Grants: https://www.epa.gov/region6/6sf/pdffiles/grants-chlor-nm.pdf
More about activities in EPA Region 6 is available at https://www.epa.gov/aboutepa/region6.html

That's why for this edition of The Business, we got some of the finest comics currently residing in the City of Angels to drop by:
Andy Haynes was born in the shadows of Mt. Rainier in the wilds of the Pacific Northwest, raised on salmon and caffeine. He now lives in Los Angeles, where he works as comedian, and writer. Part camp counselor, part debate team captain, he's bringing his immature take on serious issue to audiences around the English speaking world. With recent performances on the Late Night with Jimmy Fallon show, and at the New Faces showcase at the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival, Andy is becoming a must see performer.
Nick Turner is a humble comedian. He did TV once. He recently moved from NY to LA and he's LAving it.

He has performed at the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival, San Francisco Sketchfest, The Bridgetown Comedy Festival in Portland the past three years, the Laughing Skull Comedy Festival in Atlanta at which he was a finalist, HellYes Fest in Austin, and numerous others whose inclusion might render this biographical blurb unwieldy and verbose.

Roy Halladay pitches his 50th career complete game as he wins his 150th victory as the Phils sweep the Astros, 2-1.
Roy Halladay, as he pitches his 50th complete game, wins his 150th career game as he outduels the Astros' Ray Oswalt, as the Phils defeat the Astros' 2-1. The Phils, now 5-1, are off to their best start since 1993, when they started that pennant season with an 8-1 start.
The Phils took a quick 1-0 lead in the first as, on the second pitch of the game, Jimmy Rollins hits a solo home run, his first home run of the season. The Phils would make it 2-0 in the second as, with runners on the corners, and with nobody out, Carlos Ruiz hits an RBI ground out, 6-3, knocking in Raul Ibanez, who had earlier doubled and had gone to third on Shane Victorino's single, while Victorino, who had earlier singled, moved up to second base. The game then became a pitchers' duel between the Phils' Roy Halladay and the Astros' Roy Oswalt, with Oswalt giving up no more runs before leaving the game in the sixth, having given up two runs on five hits and two walks, while striking out eight Phils, while Halladay, through five, gave up only three hits while striking out five Astros. The Astros then threathen in the sixth as they loaded up the bases on singles to pinch hitter Chris Johnson and Michael Bourn, with Johnson moving up to second base, and an error to third base by Halladay on a bunt attempt by Jeff Keppinger, allowing Johnson to reach third, while Bourn moved up to second on the throw to third, with nobody out. But the next batter, Cory Sullivan then hits into a 6-3 double play, forcing out Keppinger at second base, while Johnson scored, making it a 2-1 Phils' lead, while Bourn moved up to third, where he would stay as the next batter, Carlos Lee, pops up to Rollins for the final out of the inning. The Astros then threathen again in the seventh, as they put runners on second and third, with one man out, via singles to Geoff Blum and Pedro Feliz, with Blum moving up to second base on Feliz's hit, and then with both man moving up a base on Kazuo Matsui's sacrifice bunt, 2-4, for the inning's first out. But Halladay then turned the Astros back by getting J.R. Towles to bounce back to the pitcher, 1-3, for the inning's second out, and then striking out pinch hitter Jason Michaels, swinging. That would be the last threat as Halladay gets Feliz to end the game in the bottom of the ninth with a pop up to Chase Utley for the final out.
Roy Halladay picks up the win as he pitches a complete game, giving up an unearned run on seven hits, as he strikes out eight. His record is now 2-0 with a reduced ERA of 0.56. Roy Oswalt took the lost as he pitches six innings, giving up two runs on five hits and two walks, while he strikes out eight. His record is now 0-2 with an ERA of 3.75. Jeff Fulchino, Tim Byrdak and Brandon Lyon combine for three shut out innings, giving up only one hit (Fulchino), while striking out two Phils (Fulchino and Byrdak, one each).
The Phils' offense had only six hits in the game, with Jimmy Rollins leading the team with two hits, a solo home run and a single, knocking in a run. Chase Utley, Raul Ibanez, Shane Victorino and Roy Halladay had the other foru Phils' hits, with Utley and Ibanez's hits being doubles. Carlos Ruiz knocked in the other Phils' run with an RBI ground out.
The Phils (5-1, 1st East) start a six games home stand with a three games series against the Nationals (3-3, 4th East). The first game of the three-games set, being played at Citizens Bank Park, is already in progress. The Phils send to the mound Cole Hamels (1-0, 3.60), who is coming off a win against these same Nats on April 7, as he pitched five innings, giving up three runs, only two of which were earned, on five hits and two walks, while striking out five, in the Phils' 8-4 win. He hopes to improve on that outing, giving the Phils a chance to win their home opener. He will be opposed by Jason Marquis (0-1, 13.50), who is coming off a lost to the Phils, also on April 7, as he lasted only four innings, giving up six runs on eight hits and three walks, while striking out only two, in the Nats' 8-4 lost. He hopes to do better against this same Phils squad. The Phils plan to win their home opener, and to increase their winning streak to four games.

Ask any corporate executive the secret to success and there's a good chance you'll hear that the management team must work on the same goals using the same assumptions and facts -- with transparency to the CEO and board. Yet most companies don't work that way, setting the stage for missed opportunities, hidden problems, and political gaming that uses siloed data and its analysis as a departmental weapon rather than as an enterprise asset.
One way to get closer to the goal of a company that knows how it's really doing -- which means being fully transparent and working toward the same goals with the same assumptions and data -- is through the deployment of a CPM (corporate performance management) system. Such a system analyzes data related to business performance and presents it as a collection of KPIs (key performance indicators) aggregated into a "dashboard" of simple graphical readouts, using metaphors such as stoplights and gas gauges. From the dashboard, managers can drill down to study performance data in detail.
Performance can be anything important to company strategy: employee turnover and satisfaction; defect reduction in manufacturing; net profits on new business or product lines against expectations; and so on. What's key is that the company is measuring performance -- not merely process statistics -- and is gauging it against such metrics as goals, past performance, and competitive baselines. Furthermore, to understand the complete picture, senior managers are looking at these performance areas across the entire company, not just within specific functions or departments. Typically, department managers use CPM tools within their areas, but a CPM system "rolls up" information to give senior managers a broader view of enterprise performance.
"It helps you ask the right questions and validates that the data is based on a single version of the truth," says Graham Mackintosh, vice president of strategy and business development at BI provider Cognos.
Effective CPM systems also gather and crunch data in a more targeted way than conventional BI systems do, meaning that "we don't have to say, 'Gee, I wish we'd done this two weeks ago,' " says Dan McGowan, vice president of financial reporting and analysis at Southeast Corporate Federal Credit Union, which provides financial processing services to other credit unions.
Along with helping an enterprise manage itself more effectively, CPM can also help it meet regulatory requirements -- such as Sarbanes-Oxley -- that require the CEO and other senior managers to sign off on the truth of their disclosures and to disclose "material events" within 48 hours. "How can you report to what the laws require if you don't know what is happening?" asks Jonathan Hornby, practice director of performance management at analytics provider SAS Institute.
Known by several names -- business performance management, corporate business management, enterprise performance management, and, in some circles, real-time BI -- CPM requires a strong underlying data architecture. That requirement is one reason most CPM providers are also BI, data-analytics, or ERP vendors, such as Applix, BusinessObjects, Cognos, Computer Associates' CleverPath division, CorVu, Hyperion Solutions, Lawson Software, Outlooksoft, SAS, and SRC Software. (Many other vendors use one of the "performance management" labels but offer analysis systems only for specific tasks such as financial, IT, or supplier management.)
Only approximately 20 percent of companies have both the technology infrastructure and the commitment to transparency necessary for a successful CPM deployment, SAS' Hornby says. And as Meta Group Analyst Jonathan Poe notes, perhaps only 5 percent to 10 percent of large companies have been implementing CPM for a long time, often using homegrown tools for tapping into and analyzing their data stores.
"A lot of companies don't have the formally defined processes or a common set of metrics across the organization," adds Kevin McAuliffe, director of strategy and business performance management for the software group at IBM.
Building on a Solid Foundation
Typically, a CPM deployment builds on existing data repositories, data integration efforts, and departmental systems such as ERP, CRM, and SCM. "CPM is not a revolutionary way to reinvent your technology infrastructure," says John Colbert, vice president of service management at BPM Partners.
Instead, it usually overlays those systems and is used for gathering information across them by breaking organizational silos, says John O'Rourke, senior director of product marketing at BI provider Hyperion.
"Organizations have done a great job and siloed information. CPM takes advantage of all of these," BPM Partners' Colbert adds.
To consider a CPM deployment, organizations that haven't completed at least basic integration of key financial and operations data need to build those systems first, identifying the key data, what it means, where it resides, and how to access it. "The majority of companies have the data somewhere," Colbert says. "But the ones with financial systems and transactional systems in place are the ones that can take advantage of it."
For most others, performance data tends to exist in individuals' Excel spreadsheets, notes Mike Rost, director of product marketing at ERP provider Lawson Software.
To deploy CPM, organizations need some sort of central data repository -- one or more data warehouses, data marts, cubes, or databases with a common data architecture -- that can be used as a trusted, audited source of truth, Rost says. That's not to say that all the data must reside in one data store. Regardless, companies must know where key, validated data is and that the relevant, agreed-on metadata, business rules, and metrics are accessible to the CPM system. (Companies also have to have already integrated all or much of that data; otherwise, they won't know whether what they have is relevant, let alone accessible, Colbert notes.)
For example, product lifecycle management provider UGS uses Hyperion Essbase data cubes; utility Baltimore Gas & Electric (BG&E) pulls its data from an Oracle Financial database; credit-union services provider Southeast Corporate Federal Credit Union uses a set of Applix TM1 data cubes; and hospital group Centra Health accesses a set of SAS applications that have a common data architecture. Except for Centra, these organizations pull their data from various transaction and departmental systems, "scrubbing" the data for accuracy and consistency and placing it in validated data stores. Centra has the advantage of already having had to meet regulations that require integrated, consistent data systems, says Kim Price, decision support manager at Centra.
In some cases, organizations can tap into real-time transaction systems rather than use intermediate data stores, as long as they know the data is valid and under what circumstances it's OK for managers to see KPIs based on incomplete or unverified data, IBM's McAuliffe says. He also concedes that managers need to be wary of spending too much time tracking minor variations in unaudited, real-time data.
Sorting the Essential From the Tangential
After an enterprise has a sufficiently robust data infrastructure in place, the big challenge becomes figuring out what data is meaningful, trustworthy, and relevant. Ditto on the metrics used to contextualize that data.
For example, in its CPM deployment, UGS found that, although it could get lots of data from its SAP order-entry and service-billing systems and its homegrown CRM system, some vital data just didn't exist in the SAP data structures, such as revenue from new customers, recalls Eric Kline, director of IT applications at UGS. So, the company had to develop logic rules to create this information from other data. "Additional fields may need to be created or captured" in existing systems, he notes.
"We really had to work through what the targets and benchmarks are," Centra's Price notes. That process led to questions such as "If you are at 99 percent (of a target), is that a negative? Is it 100 percent all the time?" she recalls of the hospital group's SAS Strategic Performance Manager-based CPM effort. "It's also hard to choose the things where we don't look so good," despite the fact that targeting those areas usually leads to performance improvements, Price says.
A CPM effort can also expose -- or be torpedoed by -- internal politics. Because a truly effective CPM system allows no one to hide their performance or to maintain silos of proprietary information, accessing the right data and metrics can require navigating difficult political issues. Board members, senior managers, and other authorized users suddenly have access to the same information at the same time. Because of this, report massaging goes away -- as it must for true transparency. Meta Group's Poe suggests that IT staff are well-suited to navigate these waters because they "know how to dissect the unknown -- they're used to change and (to) being transparent from having to share with others on a team." But strong executive support is ultimately required to ensure real sharing, Lawson's Rost says. Otherwise, "you'll find some people trying to protect their turf," UGS' Kline adds.
More Analysis, Less IT
After management has bought into a CPM effort, enterprises often discover that proper data discovery and analysis requires a strong partnership between IT and business staff -- and that effort can easily take 60 percent to 80 percent of the deployment time, Meta Group's Poe notes. "Don't rush to code," he advises.
Otherwise, "the garbage (data) just comes out a lot faster."
Sometimes companies use existing metrics such as the Six Sigma defects analysis often used in manufacturing or the Balanced Scorecard approach that weighs financial performance, customer trends, internal processes, and internal education, notes Tony White, an analyst at Gartner. But because such metrics are usually part of applications with hard-coded assumptions, "IT needs to investigate these, which can be a real headache," he says.
Another challenge is finding the right predictive metrics, Southeast Corporate's McGowan says. "Regression analysis works quite well in some areas, and in others, it doesn't," he adds.
Such work requires different skills than many IT organizations have, Gartner's White says. That's what BG&E found in its deployment of an Outlooksoft Everest CPM system, which initially targeted operations, management, and capital planning across 110 project groups, pulling data mainly from an Oracle Financial system. The company added a second functional analyst and has increased the workload of both the IT and functional staff, says Tom Lowe, director of business strategy at BG&E.
And analysts and providers alike agree that the role of business staff must be greater in a CPM deployment than in most IT efforts. "You really need the subject-matter experts empowered and well-trained on the tools," Southeast Corporate's McGowan says.
Jim O'Connor, OLAP systems supervisor at cable provider Adelphia Communications, says he's noted that the transition to CPM is harder for traditional IT people -- especially database administrators -- than it is for business staff. For example, as Adelphia continues its deployment of a Clarity-based CPM system, O'Connor sees his staff's role changing from generating reports and managing databases to developing the underlying data architecture and training business staff how to use CPM-based tools.
This shift can also reduce the need for some IT staff: As the CPM effort broadens across the company, O'Connor expects to see significant overall savings, given that the need to create reports will diminish. After all, as Bill O'Connor, CIO of semiconductor company Zarlink, says, "You only do the report once" in a CPM system.
Phasing in CPM
According to analysts and executives, deployment of a CPM system should be done in stages. "Don't bite off the whole thing," Hyperion's O'Rourke advises. "You need a clear decision on what metrics you're going to start with -- and not try to do everything for everybody," says Sherman Mink, manager of financial and reporting applications at UGS. "It's an iterative process," Zarlink's O'Connor concurs.
Most organizations start with financial performance management because most already have the data and metrics in place and are trying to speed up the reporting of their financial reports, BPM Partners' Colbert says. Next are operational performance issues such as reducing service calls or improving distribution, he says. That's because those areas are more easily quantified and often use data-based metrics for process improvement and auditing, he adds.
Often, new data streams will be needed to assess performance in areas such as marketing and human resources, where most companies haven't gathered meaningful data consistently, Colbert says.
It's also important to target your indicators and metrics. "You can't manage a thousand indicators," Price observes.
"Most organizations have too much information and tend to get into firefighting because of that," SAS' Hornby adds. "Each individual should be looking at 10 to 20 metrics, all in alignment with the company's goals," he says. Otherwise, they're just looking at a dashboard all day, rather than thinking about and acting on the business performance issues that CPM is supposed to illuminate in the first place.

text: Floppin 5,979 Report post Posted January 31, 2013 Because it's Super Bowl time, everyone has to get in on the football. The Public Religion Research Institute conducted a survey earlier this month, and asked its random sample of 1,033 adults a bunch of questions about the NFL. Most of the responses aren't surprising or interesting (Lots of people watch football! Even more people watch the Super Bowl!), but two specific questions and results are worth highlighting. Perhaps the most shocking is that 27 percent of those polled—more than a quarter—believe that "God plays a role in determining which team wins a sporting event." Watch a game with three of your buddies. Odds are that one of you wholeheartedly believes that God has a vested interest in the outcome of the game, and will influence it to get His way. This could really throw off Vegas's lines. There's more. You know how athletes, in postgame interviews, often thank God? They believe God is specifically looking out for them and their health. A majority of Americans agree. According to the survey, 53 percent of respondents believe that "God rewards athletes who have faith with good health and success." http://deadspin.com/5980273/ Well isn't that nice.

East Bay
Lying across the Bay Bridge from San Francisco, the East Bay has a unique culture that's more laid back and uncomplicated than its Western neighbor's.
Oakland, the area's largest city, is famous for its somewhat smaller Chinatown and its beautiful waterfront Jack London Square, as well as its large port and eucalyptus-spotted hills. Berkeley, just north, is home to the University of California and tens of thousands of students, as well as left-leaning politics and great food.
What the locals call "the East Bay" is really two fairly distinct regions, separated by the East Bay Foothills. On the bay side of the hills in the west, the cities of Berkeley, Oakland and Hayward rise from the edge of the San Francisco Bay up the western face of the foothills. The climate tends to be temperate, the culture diverse, and the traffic horrendous.
On the eastern side of the foothills, the towns of Walnut Creek, Pleasanton and Livermore lie in the area known as the Tri-Valley region (named for the Livermore, San Ramon and Amador valleys). The climate here is more like that of the San Joaquin Valley, with foggy winters and scorching summers. The population is more homogenous, but the traffic is still pretty awful. Origninally, when the small towns of the Tri-Valley area began to grow into immense suburbs in the 1970's, everybody commuted over the hills to work in the South Bay, the Peninsula or the City. Today, many large corporations have offices in the Tri-Valley area, and the suburbs of Pleasanton and Walnut Creek are growing into small cities.
The East Bay Regional Park District maintains 65 parks across the East Bay, ranging from easy access picninc areas to off-limits wildlife sanctuaries. More than a dozen campsites range from "family camping" to backpack areas.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Carroll's (Mont.) Jim Mee has been named the final NAIA National Men's Golfer of the Week for the 2012 season, the national office announced Wednesday. Mee was selected based on his performances from April 23 – 29 and was chosen out of a pool of conference/independent/unaffiliated group golfer of the week selections. The honor is the first such award for Carroll since men's golfers of the week began in 2011.
The senior native of Libby, Mont., carded an 11-under-par (64-72-70 -71–277) at the Frontier Conference Golf Championships held April 23 – 24, on the way to posting the lowest four-round individual score. That performance carried the Fighting Saints to their first-ever men's golf conference title, clinching the program's first trip to the National Championships. Mee's first-round eight-under-par 64 set a tournament course record at Larchmont Golf Course in Missoula, Mont.

Landon, I watched the second season of True Blood on a website that was running pirated versions. Yes the sound and video quality was crap and yes the website changed names about six times to keep playing the stuff, but I got to see it. Definitely worth buying when it comes out, I've already reserved a copy on Amazon.
Also, a bit of a guilty pleasure, but I watch Glee. I find it rather amusing.

House MD is a really easy example to use. Any episode of house could be turned into a crossover where the patient is a character from another TV show. Of course since House MD really revolves around Dr. House's crazy antics and not the medicine, one would want to pick characters that Dr. House can play off of or otherwise interact with in an interesting way.
For example, Dexter Morgan from the show Dexter could be the patient. I think it would be interesting to see how House interacts with someone who doesn't feel emotions like normal people, and Dexter would (at the same time) be trying to hide his "extracurricular activities" from House's keen insight into the human animal.
Another example might be if Jack Bauer had to work together with the team from NCIS or somethings.
There would be some limitations on which shows could be crossovered. The shows would have to be in the same general time period (unless time-travel technology was used like in the Sarah Conner Crons). Also, the creators would probably be wary of combining one show which has supernatural or fictional elements (vampires, magic, aliens, ect...) with a show which does not have anything like that. A crossover between two shows like that would be admitting that there are those supernatural elements in the non-supernatural show, but that the characters and plot of that show are oblivious to it.
Of course there might be some ways around the supernatural problem. I remember an episode of Buffy where Buffy is a psycho patient and the whole slaying thing is all in her mind. At the end of the episode they never actually said whether or not the slaying was real or not. Going back to House MD, a similar episode could be done with a number of different supernatural shows.
So... Does this sound like a worth while idea or are there complications which I have not foreseen? If it is an interesting idea, I would love to hear what you guys think would be cool crossovers.

yeah i was thinking the same thing but it is still cool.
Well, I was a little glad that ABC was airing the MMPR "remastered" at first.....it got remastered alright.....
and now, its even more cheezier than it was before. Now its got that whole '1966 batman tv show' look to it with all the Onomatopoeia and stuff.....not cool.
looks like one of Vh1's old Pop Up Videos where the bubbles pop up outta nowhere and tell you trivia.
All the new effects were not needed at all...some were decent but i could live without it.
Im just glad Disney left the music and stuff alone....i guess that was the LEAST they could do.
And to make it worst, MMPR dosent even air on the single digit ABC channel(atleast not with Directv). You have to order a 3 digit channel ABC which pretty much shows you the same thing.
So here I am getting ready for the MMPR "remastered" because the channel's Promo commercial just said it was comming on next....then the News comes on....
Man, I was pissed, Then I soon found out that it was a blessing in disguise....but obviously i saw it eventually....
Disney is F***in up and gettin paid while doing it.....
and BOA is right behind Disney with their new MMPR toyline....
but i hate the kapow! effects.

American Idol should do a crossover with Dancing with the Stars...
Still, the crossover I'm waiting for is "The Biggest Loser" with "American Gladiator". Jumping rope? That's not how you lose weight! Let's unleashes Titan on them!
Posted 13 February 2010 - 11:45 PM
Here are some that have potential.
-House and Grey's Anatomy. How long before Patrick Dempsey strangles Hugh Laurie. Also, inside joke knowing that Dempsey auditioned for the roll of House.
-White Collar and Burn Notice. Michael Weston and Neal Caffrey, could make some very good storylines.
-Glee and The Office. This would be an acid trip that I'm not sure would work, but I'd like to see it tried.
-Monk and anything. Just to see his interactions.

My favorite crime shows. It would be really cool to see them in an episode, but not an usual length episode. Might not be able to highlight anyone with the usual length.

* Good for the spatans winning. That shield was da big killer yet again. On that note I wouldve liked to see Wallace or Apache in there(if only for the experts comments)
*Poor IRA. Worst beatdown yet I think...Though LMAO for them adding pirates in the modern warrior section
*SWAT vs GSG9. Anyone else notice these guys like going for the eyes a little too much? Also the final kill in the simulation was funny as hell: "SWAT: Im in the car."GSG9: Oh sh-*bang*"
Any fights ya'll looking forward too. The snippets from the new opening show some promising weapons and I looked over the list: Personally, I wanna see the Musketeer and Aztec kick some tail...

that would be cool.
Along the lines of crossovers, I'd like if Scrubs (before it was turned into this thing they're trying to pass off as Scrubs) had an episode where they brought House in to help at Sacred Heart. I'd just love to see him and Dr. Cocks try to work together

It's probably old, but it still depresses me.
On other, happier thoughts, I watched the premiere of Generator Rex, and was pleasantly surprised. When I remembered it was by Man of Action, I feared disappointment, because I just don't like Ben 10, but it was pretty good. A little rough, but it's got potential. I think CN is turning around. Chowder, Flapjack, Star Wars, Batman and Adventure Time are all great shows. With shows like Regular Show, A brand new Looney Tunes series, Young Justice, and Sym Bionic Titan, the future shows of CN look great.

well i never liked specspidey anyways . maybe the ultimate spiderman show will be better.
My friends, it is a sad day. I've found out that, due to Sony giving Disney the TV rights of Spidey to keep making movies, The Spectacular Spider-Man has been CANCELLED. I now hate the Marvel-Disney partnership. Marvel may have more backing and can take more risks, therefore getting lesser known characters in the media, but at what cost? AT WHAT COST?!

Big Shower
Big Shower photo shower family future home gallery the academy 350 X 400 pixels | 350 X 400
Big Shower are an American custom and a much expected part of your expectant mother's first motherhood. Not surprisingly, the common Big Shower hostess seems a way of measuring anxiety as it pertains to planning this long-awaited get together, and if it's her foray in to the Big Shower arena, the duty can easily become an frustrating one. But planning for a baby shower do not need to be a way to obtain apprehension, and by using simple beginner's guide, even the most inexperienced hostess can chuck a fun-filled and memorable baby shower celebration.
The first order of business is to create a time for the Big Shower. The perfect time to program the bathtub is when the pregnant woman is 32 to 34 weeks pregnant, and you ought to allow yourself about 6 weeks of planning time prior to the party. After the date is set on, ask the mom-to-be to supply you with a set of brands and addresses. That is your visitor list. Prepare the invites and send them out about four weeks before the time of the get together.

Teaching Bodies and Embodiment
How do we make the theoretical tangible and personal? How do we show the expectations of a gendered being? How do we interrogate embodiment and the expectations beset on bodies? How do we understand our bodies as archives of the cultural and the personal? What do we learn when we turn to our archives? What do we have the ability to discern?
These are all questions that haunt me each time I teach my gender course. Showing how gender is lived becomes the primary way to push against simple views of biology or construction. What happens to bodies weighed down by cultural expectations and the reality of the flesh? The complicated mess of embodiment is essential to exploring how people live, past and present. Where does flesh end and culture begin? Can we even ask that question?
One of the ways I help students think about embodiment is to allow students to allow them to gender me. I stand in front of the class and ask them to analyze how I perform gender. The students, then, get to rate my performance of gender as a way to make the abstract theory real to them. But importantly, this exercise allows me to discuss gender habits, stereotypes, and subversion. I might appear "feminine" but the students pick up on my strategies of subversion too. Gendering me provides a mechanism to ground discussions of Judith Butler, Donna Harraway, Lise Elliot, and Joan Scott. How does my bodily performance demonstrate gender? In particular, I want them to think very carefully about the role of religion in our construction as gendered beings:
Religion defines men and women in intimate and powerful ways. But, class debates and my lectures on gender theories don't always make these topics approachable for students. Gender emerges as something academic and distant rather than something personal and tangible. Ann Braude noted the still potent and important fact "women's history is American religious history." But, how can you convince students that gender matters historically and today in interpretations of religion and American culture? … My teaching approach to gender and religion has become much more personal and face-to-face.

Liver metabolic disease: a key factor identified
Non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) represents a major public health issue as it is currently considered that 20% of the population is at risk in industrialized countries. While NAFLD can remain benign, it predisposes people to more severe pathologies such as steatohepatitis and liver cancer. Scientists have provided evidence that the suppression of a protein called PPARαin hepatocytes is sufficient to lead to the development of NAFLD.

Chris Aaland thought it was a breathing issue. But the family doctor didnt pull the stethoscope off his chest and prescribe an inhaler.
Instead, 48 hours after a fairly casual office visit, Aaland was on his way via helicopter to Presbyterian Heart Center in Albuquerque for life-saving heart surgery. Not to spoil the suspense, but, eight weeks later, Aaland, who has served Fort Lewis College athletics longer than anyone in the department, is doing just fine physically and mentally.
Financially, however, the Aaland family Chris, his wife, Shelly, and their son, 5-year-old Otto took a hit. So to help out, the organizers of the Community Cares 5K have designated the Aalands as this years beneficiary.
Saturdays fourth annual event begins at 10 a.m. at the Durango Community Recreation Center. The fun run/walk is sponsored by the First Baptist Church of Durango and Durango Parks and Recreation.
It has been a trying stretch for the FLC sweethearts. Chris (1991 FLC grad and current assistant director of athletics for communications) and Shelly (1999 FLC grad and current head volleyball coach) were married in 2002. Their son Otto was born in 2007 and their son Gus in 2011. On Nov. 25, 2011, 5½-month-old Gus died at a Denver hospital of a sudden illness. Otto stayed in Durango during the ordeal.
We couldnt get back to Durango soon enough, Chris said. First, they needed to explain to him about his brother. But mostly, He was the medicine that Shelly and I needed.
Almost exactly a year after Guss death, Chris began waking up with his heart racing and his breathing heavy. He chalked it up to anxiety surrounding the anniversary. But the symptoms didnt go away.
The weekend of Dec. 8-9 was a particularly bad one physically. Among other duties, Chris keeps statistics at FLC sporting events, and that weekend marked FLC basketballs first homestand. (Chris, like a true sports fan, recalls dates by associating them with sporting events. His last weekend at the hospital, he pointed out later in the interview, coincided with the Denver Broncos game vs. the Cleveland Browns.) So on Monday he visited the family doctor.
I thought I was going to go in, and they were going to check my lungs out, he said.
That was a real shock ... having him say I had the lung capacity of a 74-year-old, and theres a murmur in there, and it sounds like somethings really wrong.
A visit the next day to a Mercy Regional Medical Center cardiologist revealed an aortic aneurysm. The malfunctioning aorta was causing fluid to pool in his lung. Thus, the breathing trouble. Aaland was flown immediately to Albuquerque.
Five days later, Monday, Dec. 17, surgeons opened his rib cage, lifted out the heart, repaired the aneurysm and put in an artificial valve.
After the three- to four-hour operation, I felt almost instant relief, Aaland said. I felt like I could breathe like I was a 15-year-old.
The Community Cares 5K is the brainchild of Ken Flint, former cross country coach and athletics department business manager at Fort Lewis. Flint and Aaland once shared an office at FLC and have known each other since 2000. Flint and other First Baptist Church members agreed that one of FLC athletics biggest boosters was worthy of some love.
Hes done so much in the community, Flint said of Aaland, mentioning also his work as DJ for KDUR-FM and the local music-themed column he writes for The Durango Telegraph. Hes a community member whos going through a tough time, and we wanted to help.
The Aalands have health insurance, but not all expenses were covered the helicopter flight, for one.
We assumed some pretty steep out-of-network charges, Aaland said.
Aalands undying love for FLC and sports is unimpeachable. He began as sports information director about the same time he graduated in 1991. In 2001, he left the athletics department to become director of communications and publications, and in 2006, was named director of alumni relations. Even when he left the department, Aaland kept his hand in athletics, keeping statistics at games. He returned to athletics in 2010 to take his current post.
Hes a tremendously vital asset to Fort Lewis athletics, Duane Smith, longtime fan, professor, and member of the FLC Athletic Hall of Fame, said of Aaland. With his wife, they are an amazing team.
Shelly Aaland has long FLC tenure, too. Then Shelly Harshberger, she played volleyball and was FLCs most valuable player in 1998. She has been head volleyball coach since 2003.
The seriousness of Chriss condition really didnt hit the Aalands until the crisis was over. But if Chris had let his condition go much longer, the outcome could have easily been different.
If you have trouble breathing for more than a short period of time, dont screw around with it, he advised. Go see your family doctor.
(Age) 44 is nowhere near where I want the game to be over, especially with a 5-year-old who I want to do things like climb Engineer (Mountain) with.
Hes made a few lifestyle changes, such as diet, and for the foreseeable future will take the blood thinner Coumadin. But his favored pastimes of fly-fishing and bird hunting are doable, and he can still be that dad who plays basketball with his kid in the driveway.
All the things I thought I couldnt do are back on, Aaland said. I was starting to doubt some of those things would happen.

"Between slagging each other off with cartoons [...] and taking each other to court over chipset licenses, there's been no love lost between NVIDIA and Intel over the past few years - but it looks like the war is over. The two companies just announced a new six-year cross-licensing deal that will see Intel paying NVIDIA a total of $1.5b over the next five years for access to NVIDIA's technology, while also giving NVIDIA a license to some of Intel's patents. The two companies have also agreed to drop all pending litigation, because you know, they're now friends who just exchanged a billion and half dollars."

Medical Genetics Test Details

|Adult Screening Exome Sequencing
|Test Information:
|Indications for Testing
The Adult Screening Exome Sequencing test is ordered by a physician and must be accompanied with a consent form and detailed clinical information. The test is used when a patient's medical history and physical exam findings are normal, but the patient desires information about potential future risk of developing a genetic disorder.
- Healthy patient with interest in knowing about their future risk of developing a genetic disorder.
- Must be 18 years of age or older with no significant active or past personal or family history of medical problems.
|Test Details
|Test Code:
|Special Notes:
The Adult Screening Exome Sequencing test is a highly complex test that is newly developed for the identification of changes in a patient's DNA that are causative or related to future medical concerns. In contrast to current sequencing tests that analyze one gene or small groups of related genes at a time, the Adult Screening Exome Sequencing test will analyze the exons or coding regions of thousands of genes simultaneously using next-generation sequencing techniques.
The exome refers to the portion of the human genome that contains functionally important sequences of DNA that direct the body to make proteins essential for the body to function properly. These regions of DNA are referred to as exons. There are approximately 180,000 exons in the human genome which represents about 3% of the genome. These 180,000 exons are arranged in about 22,000 genes. It is known that most of the errors that occur in DNA sequences that then lead to genetic disorders are located in the exons. Therefore, sequencing of the exome is thought to be an efficient method of analyzing a patient's DNA to discover the genetic cause of diseases or disabilities.
The principle of the test is to sequence nucleotide by nucleotide, the human exome of an individual to a depth of coverage necessary to build a consensus sequence with high accuracy. This consensus sequence is then compared to standards and references of what is normal in the population and the result is interpreted by board-certified laboratory directors and clinicians. By sequencing the exome of a patient and comparing it to normal reference sequence, variations in an individual's DNA sequence can be identified and related back to the individual's future medical concerns.

53 percent of parents said being good at math is more important than being good at sports for future success.
Despite the data showing that other countries beat us in math, 72% of parents say that their kids love math and are on the right track with mathematics.
"These survey findings are very encouraging. They show that parents have a clear vision about the importance of math in their children's future opportunities," said Pamela Erickson, Raytheon's vice president of Community Relations. "With job growth in science, technology, engineering and math outpacing non-STEM-related jobs, Raytheon remains committed to helping parents and teachers guide their students toward the exciting and challenging opportunities awaiting them in STEM-related careers."
Since 2005, Raytheon has invested $72 million on education through their STEM program MathMovesU. Find MathMovesU on Facebook and on Twitter.

How To Choose and Use Lemongrass
Lemongrass is a fragrant herb used in curries, meats, tofu, and other dishes where a zesty, lemony flavor is desired. If you've never bought or cooked with it before, the thick, grassy stalks may be a bit daunting. But it's really quite simple. Here is our guide to buying and preparing lemongrass, whether your recipe requires sliced, minced, or bruised.
What You Need
Lemongrass stalk
Cutting board
Chef's knife
Mortar and pestle (optional)
Food processor (optional)
Microplane zester (optional)
1. Lemongrass is often sold in bunches of stalks one to two feet in length.
2. Choose stalks that feel firm, smell fragrant, and look fresh. Look for tight bulbs and pale to bright green stems and tops. The tops may be somewhat dry, but avoid any that appear overly dried out, brown, or yellow.
3. Although the entire stalk is edible, in general it is the tender middle section that is used. Using a chef's knife, trim the fibrous top and about two inches off the bottom. Discard the upper and lower parts or reserve for another use. (Try using the leaves to infuse soup or tea.)
4. Using your fingers, peel away the tough outer layer(s) to reach the fleshy interior.
5. Using a chef's knife, thinly slice into rounds. Depending on the recipe, use as is or proceed to steps 6 or 7.
6. For finer pieces, mince the slices with a chef's knife.
7. Alternatively, grind the slices using a mortar and pestle or food processor.
8. A microplane zester may also be used to finely grate lemongrass for use in stir-fries or other recipes.
9. Some soup or curry recipes call for bruised rather than minced lemongrass. To bruise, use the back of a knife to press the stalk in several places until fragrant.
10. Bending the stalk is another way to bruise the lemongrass and release its oils.
Additional Notes: To store lemongrass, wrap tightly in plastic and refrigerate for up to two weeks or freeze for up to six months.

Let this be a lesson. After posts by John Gruber and Shawn King, this happened to Violet Blue. "The misinformation gave a significant number of people fuel to stalk me, attack me for hours at a time, malign, insult me in disgusting ways, threaten me with weapon-specific violent death (an axe), and lead social media attempts to force me to lose my job over the matter. Many referenced John Gruber, and/or his post as they did this. Plans were openly made to make media to attack me - another Angry Mac Bastards podcast." Disgusting story, and sadly enough, this isn't the first time this has happened, as Blue notes in her article. I don't like talking about these matters (you don't want to know the kind of crap that gets thrown my way at times), but I can assure you my inbox has seen its share of pure vitriol after Gruber links to an OSNews piece. It ain't pretty.
