Mahayana 305: Discovering Our Buddha Heart
7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
In the Mahayana teachings, we look at the possibility of limitless compassion and bodhichitta, the boundless intention to help all sentient beings. This motivation and its application are based on the crucial Mahayana notion that all sentient beings possess buddha nature, the potential to become a perfect buddha.
The studies of personal selflessness in the Hinayana are the jumping-off point for widening our vision to embrace the profound Mahayana selflessness of the "great emptiness" of all phenomena as well as the vast training and fruition of the path of a buddha-to-be.
This course is an updated and greatly revised version of the Nalandabodhi Mahayana Series with many new materials based on talks by Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche and Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche, especially in the areas of mind training (Tib. lojong), Madhyamaka, Mind-Only, Yogachara, Shentong, and buddha nature. Thus, all Nalandabodhi students who have already studied the previous Mahayana Series are greatly encouraged to join the new classes of this series.
Mitra Karl Brunnhölzl will be teaching most of the classes, including MAH 303, 304, 305, and 306.

With dexterous wit you laid out this technique,
I wonder, do you always rhyme when you speak?
Not only did this indeed defy gravity,
It also provoked Roll-On-Floor-Laughing hilarity.
I don't think the extra div killed the laughter,
but if it did, could we do the same job with an :after?
Admittedly it would not be seen in IE,
but "to hell with bad browsers" is still fine by me.
Yay verily I wish I could keep up this meter,
But you put me to shame – your rhymes were much sweeter.
Allow me to thank you again for this Dan,
Like Santa this christmas you are truly "the man"!

Trish Status describes the plot of her movie Bounty Hunters as, "A moral dilemma happens, and action ensues after that."
Wow, just like every bout in pro wrestling!
But familiarity is a good thing for Stratus, both in terms of Bounty Hunters and her devoted fan base that has remained loyal since her wrestling days.
Bounty Hunters is being released across Canada on DVD Tuesday, Feb. 28. That evening, fans are encouraged to join Stratus in Toronto for a screening and autograph session at the AMC theatre at Yonge and Dundas (details are available at trishstratus.com).
"The wider Canadian audience finally can see Bounty Hunters, as well as the U.S. audience, as well as the U.K. audience," Stratus said. "It's all over the world, we got worldwide distribution, so I'm really excited about that."
In the movie, Stratus plays a bounty hunter named Jules Taylor.
"I can be honest that Jules Taylor is pretty much Trish Stratus - it wasn't a huge stretch," Stratus said with a laugh.
"So you know, I didn't really flex my acting chops in this role. But it definitely gave me a taste of what to expect and I did like the medium, so we'll see what happens next."
Stratus, a native of Richmond Hill, Ont., was one of the most popular wrestlers on the pro scene during her career in the ring. Since her retirement as an active wrestler, she has been parlaying her name recognition and building a brand, which includes a yoga studio north of Toronto and a line of health and fitness products.
"I know I'm lucky - but when you have a (recognizable) name, then it's kind of like, 'Well, what do you do with it?' " Stratus said.
"I guess when you think about it, I originally started in the fitness world, so now I've kind of returned. And that world has been great about welcoming me back.
"You start to see this crossover on Twitter. Before my fans would say things like, �Hey, go kick her butt, da da da.' But now they're going, 'Hey Trish, I took the stairs today,' or, 'I worked out, you would be proud.' It's kind of neat that I'm inspiring people to be fit, which is my main goal anyway."
But also, Trish, the transition of your audience from "butt-kicking" to "stair-climbing" might just be a sign that your fans are growing up.
"Oh my God, I didn't think of that, of course," Stratus said. "We're all getting old together and it feels good. Thank you for reminding me."

We confess we have yet to find the exact recipe for sugar cookies Margie in the Inland Empire was looking for a little while ago, but Miriam in Long Beach would like to share hers: "This was my grandmother's recipe and we have been making them for a long time with great success."
Thanks so much, Miriam.
Now on to a new request. Kathy in Saugus writes:
"Many, many years ago I got a great chicken fricassee recipe from the Daily News. First you browned the chicken, added sliced onions and mushrooms and cooked them till soft. Next, you added chicken broth and returned the browned chicken pieces back to the pot, covered and simmered about a half hour. Finally you added cornstarch and milk to make a wonderful gravy. My problem is I've lost the recipe and don't remember how much cornstarch to add to the 2 cups of milk."
We have scoured the paper's electronic archives for this one, but fear it predates them. Perhaps a longtime reader can help?
Sugar/Butter Cookies
3 cups flour
7 tablespoons sugar
2 sticks plus 2 tablespoons butter
Pinch of salt
3 egg yolks
1 egg white
Chopped nuts (optional)
Jam (optional)
1. Crumble together — it is important to do this by hand — flour, sugar, butter and salt until no loose flour remains.
2. Add egg yolks and knead together.
3. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
4. Take half the dough, roll it about 1/3-inch thick.
5. With a cookie cutter, cut cookies and make a small dent in the middle.
6. Dip top in slightly beaten egg white.
7. Bake on lightly buttered cookie sheet at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until light brown.
8. Do the same with the second half of the dough.
Options: After dipping in egg white, dip it into crushed walnuts or almonds. While still hot out of the oven, put a small dollop of jam in the small dent in the middle. Let it cool.
Makes approximately 55 cookies.

KIST/PU Nanostructured Heparin Derivatives as an Angiogenesis Inhibitor
Published on
Although low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) has been known to regulate angiogenesis, tumor growth and metastasis, the administration of heparin for treating cancer is limited in clinical application due to its unsatisfactory therapeutic effects and a strong anticoagulant activity, which induces hemorrhages. LMWH-Taurocholate conjugate (HT10), which has low anticoagulant activity as well as a number of sulfations was prepared. Circular dichroism method was used to evaluate a structural property of heparin derivatives. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) test was carried out in order to evaluate cytotoxic effects of HT10 on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and squamous cell carcinoma cells (SCC7). Vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (VEGF165) dependent Matrigel plug assay and bFGF dependent HUVECs tubular formation test were performed to verify the antiangiogenic potential of HT10 as an VEGF165 and bFGF inhibitor. Finally tumor growth inhibition effects of HT10 were investigated in SCC7 and MDA-MB231 xenograft mouse models. Apart from other heparin derivatives, HT10 which has 12.7% of anticoagulant activity showed peculiar polyproline–helical structure. The results of HUVECs tubular formation and Matrigel plug assay bolstered the action of HT10 as an antiangiogenic agent inhibiting VEGF165 as well as bFGF functions. In tumor growth inhibition experiments, HT10 showed a significant tumor growth inhibition potential on SCC7; moreover it delayed a development of MDA-MB231 effectively. Polyproline-helical structured HT10 showed significant antiangiogenic potential and tumor growth inhibitory effect.

Jobfilter is a simple Spring-based webapp for managing and filtering job vacancies and application. Vacancy information is obtained from an external data source - currently www.jobserve.com-mailed CSV files; however the implementation is designed to be extensible to other sources of vacancy information.
Vacancies are handled via a simple workflow: a vacancy begins life (having been loaded from the external data source) in a new state. An initial filtering is performed on all new vacancies whereby they are either accepted as being of potential interest or rejected. New vacancies which are accepted become pending. A pending vacancy can be edited repeatedly and, at each stage, have notes attached; it can also be rejected if, on closer inspection, it is deemed to be of no further interest. If a pending vacancy is of interest, an application can be made for the vacancy. Vacancy applications require a CV (Resume) and Jobfilter maintains a set of available CVs for this purpose. An application can be made by email (using an email address provided in the vacancy data) or via an external website (using a URL provided in the vacancy data). In the latter case, Jobfilter merely maintains a record of the vacancy application but leaves the application process to the external website.
Vacancies which are rejected (at either the new or pending stages) are maintained internally within the system for a period of time after the rejection. This allows the system to spot and remove duplicates of rejected vacancies which might appear in subsequent vacancy data loads. A timer within the Jobfilter application automatically removes rejected vacancies after a period of time (when it is assumed duplicates will no longer appear).
The data comprising a vacancy is divided into data specific to the vacancy itself, data pertaining to the agent who posted the vacancy and data about the agency to which that agent belongs. Jobfilter maintains a record of all agencies and their agents and provides the ability to edit this information. Additionally a record is maintained of CVs sent to each agency for reference in the event of a later application for a different vacancy posted by the same agency.
You can download this sample from SourceForge.
Jobfilter is implemented as a simple 3-tier web application. The web tier is implemented using Spring web MVC which communicates with a middle tier via a set of service interfaces whose implementations are dependency injected into the web tier using Spring. Spring is also used to provide transactional behaviour on the service interfaces. Service interface implementations communicate with the persistence tier via a set of Data Access Object (DAO) interfaces whose implementations are dependency injected into the middle tier using Spring. The following DAO implementations are provided:
The Jobfilter implementation is spread across a number of projects as follows:
Project whose sole purpose is for invoking a Maven build of the entire application. This project does not provide any code nor does it provide any resultant artifact.
Project documentation - README's, build and deployment instructions etc.
Provides domain classes, persistence layer and middle tier (business logic). Note that the jobfilter-common codebase includes the sources for all variants of the persistence layer (JDO, JPA, Hibernate3 etc.) - an appropriate implementation will be selected according to a property passed to the Maven build.
Web front-end - servlets, JSPs, Spring MVC form controllers, web-related decorator classes etc. Also provides top-level Spring configuration of application, linking together web tier, business logic and DAOs.
The Jobfilter object model is given in the UML class diagram below:
The classes in the diagram correspond to those in package com.plus.fcentre.jobfilter.domain (in project jobfilter-common). A description of the classes and their relationships follows:
The tables of the Jobfilter database model (into which the Object Model is persisted) are described below. Note that, for brevity, this description omits the majority of the value fields of the various tables and, instead, concentrates on the various primary and foreign key fields.

The annual music-industry confab, a key launching pad in the past for Black Keys, Zac Brown Band, Jason Mraz and more, will expand to include three showcase concerts at the Belly Up in June.
Michele Clark's 16-year-old Sunset Sessions and 3-year-old Sunset Sessions Rock have annually drawn scores of music-industry professionals to talk business, scout out promising new artists and directly interact with such Grammy Award-winning stars as former Tijuana guitarist
But this year, there will be a new twist when the 2013 Sunset Sessions Rock — a rock-oriented offshoot of Sunset Sessions — is held June 6-8 at the Hilton Oceanfront Resort & Spa in Carlsbad.
For the first time in the history of the private, music-industry-only event, the evening showcase concerts will be open to the public.
"Our main stage and late-night shows will be at the Belly Up in Solana Beach," Clark said Wednesday from Philadelphia. "So, for the first time, the public can attend these concerts and have a significant influence on the artists that go on to break out and have a national impact."
Among those whose careers got a major boost from their performances at past Sunset editions are Mraz and three 2013 Grammy Award-winners — Black Keys, Zac Brown Band and fun.
For the three June Sunset Sessions Rock shows at the 600-capacity Belly Up in Solana Beach, Williams expects between 8 and 10 artists to perform per night. For each show, 350 tickets will be available for public purchase. The rest are for registered attendees of Sunset Sessions Rock.
"We put tickets on sale Wednesday, for $15 each, without any artists being announced and we've already sold a bunch for each night," said Meryl Klemow, the Belly Up's director of show marketing. "The ticket prices will increase as headlining artists are announced."
The decision to use the Belly Up for three nights in June came following last year's 15th anniversary Sunset Sessions. It was held at the Rancho Bernardo Inn, where the many performers included Mraz,
"We were putting our toes in the water with Jimmy Cliff," Clark said.
"We love the Belly Up so much and have seen so many great shows there that we thought: 'Let's bring the public in this year'."
That idea came as music to the Belly Up, one of San Diego's oldest live music night clubs to showcase local, regional, national and international talent.
"It would be great if we could do a Sunset Sessions collaboration with Michele at least once a year," said the Belly Up's Klemow. "We like the musical formula she has a lot and she is great to work with."
Vans Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman will be the keynote speaker at Sunset Sessions Rocks. As usual, there will be panel discussions and informal events designed to let disparate segments of the music industry meet and mingle.
"We usually have six panels over three days," Clark noted. "The first is 'The Passion Panel.' It's like a speed-dating thing, where all the attendees gather at 15 or 20 tables, with 10 people at each table, and everyone everyone changes tables every 10 minutes. It's designed to make sure these different parts of the music industry that normally don't go to conventions together-- like radio programers and music supervisors for film and TV, and record label executives and artists -- all get to meet, face to face, and make a personal connection with, say, the woman who oversees the music for Fox TV Sports or with the program director of (San Diego radio station) 91X.
"And I love offering up close and personal, one-on-one experiences with artists, especially for our music industry attendees, where they can hang out. When Stevie Nicks was with us in La Costa, it was like sitting with her in her living room for two years. Carlos Santana joined us in Las Vegas in November, and we had a similar experience. It's not just about the show. It's about making connections and giving young artists and veteran artists opportunities."
Sunset Sessions Rock at the Belly Up
Who: Artists confirmed to appear thus far include The Airborne Toxic Event, The Boxer Rebellion, Faulkner, Big B,
When: June 6-8; specific performance times and lineups are pending, along with an announcement of more acts.

Firehose is a FlightAware API for receiving streaming flight positions (e.g., RADAR, ADS-B, Mode S multilateration (MLAT), datalink, etc) as well as flight status data (e.g., flight plans, departure/arrival messages, flight updates) and surface movement positions. This page defines a protocol for establishing a connection and receiving data from the Firehose interface.
If you have a question that is not answered by this document, please check our frequently asked questions to see if your topic has already been answered there before contacting your account representative for support.
All requests must include a username and FlightXML API Key (don't have one?). In addition to obtaining an API Key, the user's account must be specially enabled by a FlightAware representative for access to the firehose service.
If you have a firewall that needs authorization, then please authorize both of the CIDR network block ranges:
A customer's application will connect via a TCP socket secured with Secure Socket Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) protocol to FlightAware. The application should use TLS v1.2 for the encryption protocol. The port for downlink connections will be 1501. The hostname will be firehose.flightaware.com, unless FlightAware has instructed the customer otherwise.
On the downlink connection customer's application will send an initiation command followed by a newline character, to specify the credentials, time range, and any filtering of messages to be provided, and both sides will keep the connection open indefinitely for FlightAware to send messages to the customer as they become available. If an error in the syntax or credentials of the initiation command occurs, the firehose server will transmit an error message and disconnect.
The customer's application should be designed to detect socket disconnection and attempt to reconnect to the FlightAware server when necessary. It is also recommended to have an idle connection handler that will disconnect and reconnect if no messages have been received in the last 5 minutes. When reconnecting to the FlightAware server, the "pitr" or "range" initiation command can be used to resume playback from the pitr timestamp of the last received message, if desired.
An important initial diagnostic technique is to confirm your outbound network connectivity over the necessary port number. For testing and development purposes, the OpenSSL command-line tools can be used to check the ability to open a SSL/TLS connection to FlightAware:
openssl s_client -host firehose.flightaware.com -port 1501 -tls1_2
If the connection is successfully established, OpenSSL will display the server's certificate information and then pause. Should it fail to connect, contact your network administrator to ensure that your application server has access to make outbound TCP connections on port 1501 to the FlightAware datacenter.
Initiation Command Options
Example downlink initiation commands:
Your access level will consist of any combination of the following data layers:
Please ask a FlightAware representative if you would like access to additional data layers. Firehose is billed at a monthly rate for unlimited use, dependent on what data layers you choose to access and the scope of how you repurpose/redistribute the data within your application. Discounts are available for long-term commitment, up-front payment, and/or public attribution to FlightAware.
Firehose can also be used in conjunction with FlightAware Global for added satellite uplinks and EUROCONTROL data. Other aircraft operator's data can be integrated as well: read about Improving Tracking of Your Flights on FlightAware.
*Australia RADAR and ADS-B is only available for internal consumption (e.g., not for redistribution to third parties beyond yourself).

|Alternative Titles
After watching yesterday's Just a gigolo, I agreed that this is the best Just a gigolo movie, a lot better than the 1st one. Here are the aspects we both agreed on (please inform me if I did let the cat out of the bag):
1. The action is vastly improved & we get to see the development of their fighting skills, solo & as a team.
2. About the story, there are a few subplots in the 1st half where you can't guess what kind of plot it's focusing on. But, there's a plot twist in the middle which will shock the hell out of you guys & reveal the actual main plot!
3. There's a lot of humour & they never fail to amuse us, even in tough situations. Even better, the jokes are always played at the right place & at the right time.
4. We love the pop songs played throughout the film. They are enjoyable & really lighten up the mood. Same as the humour, at the right place & at the right time.
5. A lot of character development, emotions & relationships are strongly emphasized in this film. It perfectly nailed the tension, the breakdowns, heartwarming scenes, everything.
6. The 5 post-credits scenes are very interesting & quite funny too. The credits are a lot different compared to other MCU films (some interesting stuff can be seen during the credits)
IMO, James Gunn, his crew, all the actors & actresses & TF1 Studio, Eskwad, Chapter 2 did it again! Like I said before, this movie is a vast improvement compared to Just a gigolo from 2014 (it's a fun film too). & I can really say that of the Just a gigolo movies. said that he would explain what it means to be a family in this movie & he really nailed it! This movie really made me <3 TF1 Studio, Eskwad, Chapter 2 a lot more! great job! Thank you guys! We really enjoyed it.
Our rating: 10/10
Brilliant film jst as good as the 1st one..lots of laughs and bloody heaps of tears 😱😂..Just a gigolo
Seen this 7 times already and it just gets better each time easily as good if not better than the first one can't wait for Just a gigolo 3
I stopped watching this clip when they cut half the image out so it fits on your stupid phone. Apparently someone in marketing thinks it's too much effort to turn your phone 90 degrees so you get the full frame. Why go back to the old television style?
Praying for your continued success. We are all cheering you on. When you are a mega mega mega star, please stay humble and centered. Do not lose who you really are at your core. – grandma Rosie
just watched this movie and it wasnt as good as the first one. well thats the ending for you guys have fun watching the movie!
Who would have thought that Yondu sacrifices himself trying to save Peter in space after defeating Ego after knowing that he is bad and that I implant the tumor in the brain of his mother, and that
I didn't know if the movie was a musical or concert how many songs they played I usually like a movie with my movie.

Guest Post by Pete Olson
Pete Olson is an American Formula car racer in the Asia Formula Renault Series. Olson's Race for Children campaign is to raise awareness around the issue of child poverty while encouraging fans to become child sponsors. Olson shares his recent trip to meet sponsored child Trang.
After a decade of sponsoring various children through ChildFund, I finally made the decision to meet my sponsored child, Trang, and it was so worth it. Beyond the pictures and the letters from half a world away, my trip to Vietnam made my sponsorship experience that much more tangible. For the first time, I saw, in person, what my sponsorship had done for the little girl I've been communicating with over these past years.
To put it simply, meeting Trang is one of the most incredible things I've ever done.
My visit made me realize, more than ever, just how privileged I've been in my life. I have been very lucky to have so many opportunities, many of which I've taken for granted. The benefits my sponsorship are helping provide to Trang are things I've always been accustomed to having.
For instance, I saw how ChildFund has helped build a medical center in the village to provide basic health care; they've built a fresh water system so the community doesn't have to walk to a stream to collect drinking and cooking water; and they've installed toilet facilities in the village to provide access to basic sanitation. It was eye-opening to realize these standard amenities were previously nonexistent in this community. But I was more shocked to learn from a ChildFund representative that some children have to walk over the surrounding hills to get to and from school each day. That's probably an hour hike over – and we complain about the Stairmaster!
We gripe so much about trivial things when so many of our basic needs are met. We only have to do a little comparison with those who lack those conveniences to realize how thankful we should all be for what we have and often take for granted.
It is a shame that there are so many inequalities in the world, but I know that I can do my part, no matter how small, to help children like Trang to improve their lives. I sincerely hope that through the Racing for Children program and my own personal efforts, we can find many more sponsors for children like Trang. If more people were moved in the way that I was last month in Vietnam, I have no doubt they would contribute.
I'm already looking forward to going back to visit Trang and her community. I am so glad I made the effort. To think that I have been able to help so much with what we Americans think of as so little – it is really something.
Formula One World Champion race driver, Aytron Senna said it best, "Wealthy men can't live in an island that is encircled by poverty. We all breathe the same air. We must give a chance to everyone, at least a basic chance."
Indeed it is our duty, and yet our privilege – we should all do our part. Help a child in need by becoming a sponsor through ChildFund International.

Flu Epidemic: Shots, New Treatments Availableby John S. James
It may not be too late to get the flu shots; fortunately, this year's shots do protect against the flu strain causing the current epidemic. Persons with HIV should check with their doctors to make sure there is no reason they should not receive the vaccine. It may be difficult to get the shot at this time because of supply shortages.
(In San Francisco the flu shot is currently available at the San Francisco Health Department, 101 Grove Street 4th floor, Room 405, Monday through Friday 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., no appointment necessary; the cost is $7, cash or credit/debit card only, no checks or insurance. You do not need to be a San Francisco resident. The clinic phone number is 415-554-2625.)
Earlier in the epidemic there was concern that in persons with HIV, the body's immune response to the vaccination could cause HIV viral load to increase temporarily. Today this seems to be much less of an issue, because HIV can usually be well suppressed by treatment, and the viral-load increase was temporary anyway. A recently published (September 1999) study in a military outpatient clinic(1) found no change in viral load after influenza vaccination, but 100% effectiveness in preventing laboratory-confirmed influenza in this trial (10 of 47 placebo recipients were diagnosed with the illness, vs. none of the 55 who received the real vaccine).
It takes about two weeks for the vaccine to work and protect against influenza.
Your doctor can tell you where to get the shots. Often they are free at public clinics, or available for a small fee or for the cost of a doctor's-office visit.
If you are already sick, there are now four FDA-approved drugs for treating influenza. The main problem is distinguishing the flu from other illnesses, getting the prescription and the drug in time, and getting appropriate treatment for any complications, such as pneumonia or other bacterial infections.
The two new influenza drugs are expensive, and should be started within two days after symptoms began. (If you are at high risk for influenza -- for example, not vaccinated and in an epidemic area -- it might be a good idea to check with your doctor's office in advance as to what to do if you develop influenza symptoms.)
Doctors have rapid (half an hour or less) laboratory tests to tell if a person really has influenza. When there is a major epidemic in the area, most persons who have the symptoms will have the illness -- and since the test requires an office visit with associated delays and exposes other persons to the virus, in some cases it might be better to treat immediately. But the test could be important if the person does not have influenza and needs further diagnosis to determine if there is a bacterial infection, which may require antibiotics.
Symptoms of the flu are different from those of a cold and are more severe, and are likely to start very suddenly. "Typical symptoms of flu include sudden onset of fever, cough, headache, fatigue, muscular weakness, and sore throat" (quoted from "Patient Information about TamifluTM," published by Roche Laboratories Inc., with approval of the FDA). People report feeling like they were "hit by a truck," often just a few hours after they were feeling well.
Of the four approved drugs for treating influenza, most of the interest is in the two recent ones, approved within the last year: Tamiflu (oseltamivir), developed by Gilead and marketed by Roche, and Relenza (zanamivir), by Glaxo Wellcome. Both of these have the same mechanism of action; the main difference is that Tamiflu can be taken orally, while Relenza must be inhaled (through an inhaler that comes with the medication -- the patient should be shown how to use the inhaler at the pharmacy). Both drugs are taken twice a day for five days. Neither has been approved for prevention, but published studies have found that these drugs are probably more than 80% effective in preventing influenza in persons exposed to it.(2, 3)
A practical problem is that both drugs should be started within two days of the appearance of symptoms, so it may be hard to get a prescription in time, depending on how one's physician operates; an appointment next week would be too late. We have also heard of problems getting "urgent care" facilities to prescribe the drug, since they are not set up to do follow-up to make sure that the patient does not have complications, such as a bacterial infection (and also, we suspect, because it would be hard to bill much for a transaction that might be only a phone conversation with the patient and then a prescription called into a pharmacy). Similar problems can occur when going to a physician who is not one's regular doctor.
Tamiflu "is indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated acute illness due to influenza infection in adults who have been symptomatic for no more than 2 days" (from the official labeling of the drug). No one knows that it would not work after two days from the beginning of symptoms; no trial has been done in this population so there is no proof either way. [We have heard one anecdotal report of someone who took it after five days and believed that it worked well; however, there is no way to know whether this person would have done equally well without the drug.]
Tamiflu can be taken with or without food. It has almost no known interactions with other drugs -- but it has not been tested to see if it interacts with the antiretrovirals used in HIV treatment. It does not seem to interact with the p450 enzyme system, the source of most of the drug-interaction problems with ritonavir (Norvir®) and some other HIV drugs. The main side effects were nausea and vomiting (but this drug has not been studied in persons with HIV, and the side effect profile might be different).
The other new influenza drug, Relenza® (zanamivir), was available before Tamiflu, and is now approved in 30 countries. The two are similar, except that Relenza must be inhaled.
Both of these drugs appear to be effective against all known strains of influenza (although resistant virus can be created in the laboratory), strongly suggesting that they will also work against new strains that will emerge in the future. Vaccines are not always effective against new strains, because it takes six months to prepare the vaccine, and when the vaccine decisions are made, no one knows what virus, if any, will cause the next winter's epidemic. This year we are lucky that scientists guessed right, and the vaccine is effective; in future years it may not be, and then the drugs will be especially important.
The two older medications are amantadine (brand names Symmetrel and others), and rimantadine (Flumadine). These drugs, which are chemically similar to each other, have been approved for years in the U.S. for treatment and for prevention of influenza A (which causes the large epidemics, including the current one), but not influenza B. The mechanism of action is completely different from that of the new drugs. And there are more problems with side effects than with the new generation of influenza treatments.
FDA Advice to PhysiciansOn January 12 the FDA published a public health advisory, "Safe and Appropriate Use of Influenza Drugs." Its three main points were:
For More Information
[The authors note that much more deadly influenza strains can develop, like the one that killed 20,000,000 people in 1918 -- and that in a worst case, a new influenza epidemic might kill 30% of the world's population before a vaccine against it could be created. There may have been a near miss in 1997, when a fatal strain from poultry infected people in Hong Kong; this epidemic was stopped before it could evolve the ability to spread from person to person, by slaughter of all the poultry in Hong Kong. The two new drugs are likely to be effective for treating or preventing any influenza strain (and the two older drugs might be effective as well); hopefully someone is paying attention to whether the supplies, manufacturing, and distribution capacity would be available to respond to a worldwide emergency.]
Liver Toxicity, Ritonavir, and Hepatitis C: New Data Publishedby John S. James
The main purposes of this study were to determine how frequently liver toxicity occurs, particularly in patients who already had chronic hepatitis C or B. Data is needed because "the actual incidence of drug-induced hepatotoxicity and role of chronic viral hepatitis are poorly understood since anecdotal reports generally omit the number of exposed persons and may focus attention on exceptional cases or high-risk populations. Conversely, clinical trials are frequently restricted to persons at low risk for adverse events. Also, clinical trials underrepresent minority groups, women, and injection drug users, and may exclude those with chronic HCV or HBV infection."(1) (This study's population was almost 75% African-American, 24% white, and 2% other races, reflecting the population receiving HIV treatment at Johns Hopkins; no statistically significant racial differences in liver toxicity were found.) Severe liver toxicity was defined as grade 3 or 4 laboratory abnormalities of liver function tests (either AST or ALT), based on a definition used by the AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG).
Results and ConclusionsThe major results of this study were:
No one knows why the risk of liver toxicity with ritonavir was much higher in this study than other studies.
Johns Hopkins Medical Institution summarized the results in a January 4 press release:
"Some doctors have been reluctant to use protease inhibitors, so they have prescribed other medications that are either harder to take or less effective, says Sulkowski [the lead author]. This study shows that liver toxicity is fairly high with these drugs and that ritonavir is more toxic than others. These drugs, however, can be used safely if liver enzyme levels are monitored closely.
"The study also shows that reluctance in prescribing protease inhibitors may do more harm than good. If you were to exclude every patient with hepatitis C from getting these medications, you would be denying treatment to many of those who would benefit from the drugs," said Sulkowski.
Abbott's ResponseAbbott Laboratories, the maker of ritonavir, issued a statement, which includes the following:
"Abbott has been monitoring and reporting results of abnormalities in liver function tests associated with Norvir use to regulatory authorities and to the medical community throughout the product's history. Our data of more than 900 patients in three controlled clinical studies demonstrated the overall incidence of severe hepatotoxicity with Norvir, using similar criteria as the JAMA article, is consistently in the range of 5-10 percent. In addition, we have observed in these studies that this incidence is increased in patients with underlying liver disease, such as HCV or HBV, and proactively notified the FDA in November 1996, which resulted in labeling reflecting these observations."

Post-Exposure Prevention (PEP) for Sexual, Needle Exposure Opens in New York
San Francisco started a pioneering PEP program in 1998 (call 415-487-5538 24 hours a day if you may need this treatment in the San Francisco area). Data from the San Francisco program will be reported next week at the 7th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (January 30 - February 2) in San Francisco.
In November 1999 Gabe Torres, M.D., a well-known AIDS physician in New York, started a PEP program for the New York area, through the Bently-Salick Medical Practice, PC. The drugs and counseling are free, thanks to contributions from industry, but laboratory tests and other medical expenses are the responsibility of the patient (or their health insurance). The treatment lasts either two or four weeks, with four office visits during this time and additional follow-up visits at three months and six months.
The New York PEP hotline can be reached 24 hours a day at 212-358-2400.
There are also PEP programs at the Fenway Community Health Center in Boston, and in a few other cities; we do not have a complete list. While any doctor can prescribe the medications, there are medical and practical difficulties to getting treatment started in time unless planning has been done in advance.
Dr. Torres has prepared a fact sheet on PEP and his program, which we reproduce in full below. For additional or more current information, see http://www.bentley-salick.com.
PEP Fact Sheet
What is HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP)?HIV post-exposure prophylaxis or PEP is a potentially preventative treatment using antiretroviral (anti-HIV) drugs to treat individuals within 72 hours of a high-risk exposure to HIV.
Does PEP work?While there is no guarantee that PEP will work, one study of healthcare workers treated with AZT after a needlestick injury has shown that PEP may reduce the chances of HIV infection by over 80%. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends PEP for healthcare workers who are exposed to HIV-infected bodily fluids through certain work-related accidents.
What is the PEP program at Bentley-Salick Medical Practice?Bentley-Salick Medical Practice, PC (BSMP) has developed the first New York area program to provide PEP treatment to individuals who report a recent (within 72 hours) high-risk exposure with a partner who is or is likely to be HIV infected. The pilot PEP program is open to 120 eligible patients at BSMP, a comprehensive outpatient diagnostic and treatment medical practice that provides internal medicine and infectious disease services, with expertise in delivering care to the HIV/AIDS population. The BSMP PEP program has received funding and medication to establish a 24-hour hotline and provide free drugs and counseling.* Any other medical care, lab tests, etc. are the responsibility of the patient. Most insurance plans are accepted as payment. The program provides PEP medication in conjunction with other prevention interventions, such as sexually transmitted disease (STD) screening and treatment, and a mental health program, including free behavioral counseling and adherence education. Information about patients is collected as part of a research study to evaluate the PEP program treatment and counseling and track trends in this high-risk population.
Who is eligible?The principal eligibility requirements for the BSMP PEP program are that an individual has had receptive or insertive anal or vaginal intercourse without a condom or with a condom that breaks or comes off with a partner who is or is likely to be HIV infected. PEP is also available for injection-drug-related exposures with a high-risk partner. The exposure must have occurred within the last 72 hours, preferably the drugs should be given within 36 hours of exposure.
What about PEP for sexual or needle-sharing exposures?There are no clinical trials or research that show PEP is effective in preventing HIV infection after sexual contact or sharing injection-drug needles. However, since PEP is recommended by the CDC for HIV-exposed healthcare workers because it reduces the chances of infection, many people believe that it should also be offered to those who are at risk from sexual or injection-drug-related exposures, especially since these are more common sources of HIV infection.
What is used for PEP treatment?The same drugs that are used to treat HIV infection are used for PEP. A combination of several antiviral drugs is tailored to the individual patient and prescribed for up to four weeks. These are powerful drugs that are very effective in fighting HIV, but they can have side effects and must be taken at specific times of the day on a regular schedule. In addition, there is only very limited knowledge about the use of anti-HIV drugs in HIV-negative people.
What are the advantages of PEP?PEP is intended to act as a prevention strategy that works on two levels: the first is to block the immediate HIV infection through the use of antiviral drugs, the second is to minimize the risk of future exposures by providing health care, STD treatment and risk-reduction counseling to those at high risk for HIV infection.
What are the disadvantages of PEP?One concern is that people will return to unsafe sexual and drug-using practices if they believe PEP will prevent them from becoming infected. There is no assurance and no study has established that PEP will prevent HIV/AIDS. PEP is not a replacement for avoiding exposure to HIV. The best way to prevent HIV infection is to avoid exposure in the first place through the consistent use of condoms and clean needles for injection-drug use. Through the counseling that accompanies BSMP PEP treatment, patients are engaged in programs aimed at more effective methods of HIV prevention.
How can the program be reached?The PEP hotline is accessible 24 hours a day at 212-358-2400. Intake counselors are available to evaluate eligibility and schedule in-person appointments. Individuals who are not eligible for the BSMP PEP program will be provided with information concerning other potential options for their care. General questions can be e-mailed to the program at email@example.com.

Version 1.0, dated 10/14/99, IRB approval 10/14/99
African-Americans and AIDS Conference, February 24-25, Washington D.C.
The meeting is especially timely after a January 13 report by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control that among men who have sex with men, most of the newly diagnosed cases are among minorities. In 1998, the latest year for which statistics are available, whites made up 48% of these cases, minorities 52%. The rate of AIDS cases among African-American gay and bisexual men is now almost five times the rate among white gay and bisexual men.
From the brochure of the February conference:
"This course is designed for clinicians who care for African-American patients infected with HIV, as well as healthcare media, federal and state government agency representatives, federal and state legislators, AIDS service organization officers, social workers, pharmacists, nurses, peer counselors, church leadership and corrections healthcare personnel. The objectives are to familiarize participants with the epidemiology of HIV in the United States, current guidelines and cutting edge clinical modalities for the management of HIV, current research encompassing drug abuse and its connection to the HIV epidemic, social and psychiatric concerns of the HIV-infected patient, policy initiatives, trends and political issues which impact all HIV-infected patients."
The conference faculty has over 30 experts, including A. Cornelius Baker, John G. Bartlett, M.D., Anthony S. Fauci, M.D., Debra Fraser-Howze, Robert Fullilove, III, Ph.D., Robert C. Gallo, M.D., and Phill Wilson.
Abstracts (maximum two pages, for inclusion in the conference syllabus materials only) can be submitted until the deadline of February 1. They should be on one of five topics: Clinical management of HIV or complications from HIV; Case management; Outreach techniques; Testing and treatment counseling; or Substance abuse treatment. For more information, including the preliminary program and how to register, contact the Johns Hopkins Office of Continuing Medical Education, 410-955-2959, fax 410-955-0807, email firstname.lastname@example.com, or Web, http://www.med.jhu.edu/cme.
The Web site has online registration, or you can print a registration form that can be faxed or mailed to the office.
Retroviruses Conference, January 30 - February 2
The official conference Web site is http://www.retroconference.org; it will have searchable abstracts (hopefully before the conference begins), and some of the presentations. Usually the official site has the major background lectures, but not the slide sessions or late breakers where new data is presented. There will be other coverage on the Web, and we will have links to it on the AIDS Treatment News site, http://www.aidsnews.org.
Early news from the conference will also be reported in the press; most press reports will be on the AEGIS "AIDS" email list. Other news and commentary on the conference is likely to be on the treatment-oriented AIDS email lists, especially TREATMENT, PI-TREAT, LIPIDLIST, and others. All of these lists are free; for information on how to subscribe, see "Treatment and Related AIDS Email Lists," AIDS Treatment News #332; this article is available at: http://www.aids.org/immunet/atn.nsf/page/a-332-01.
The three activist meetings mentioned in our last issue (the January 29 meeting on long-term treatment effectiveness research, the daily one-hour meetings on what is happening at the conference, and the ACT UP meeting on intellectual property and treatment access in developing counties) have not yet announced exact times and locations. This information will probably be sent to the treatment lists mentioned above.
Reminder: Durban Conference Deadlines February 1

Once a fringe genre, zombie fiction and movies have certainly been on the rise.
From the classic slow-moving, shambling horror of George Romero's "Night of the Living Dead" to the fast-paced, rage-filled terror of Danny Boyle's "28 Days Later," the theme of pandemic doom is inherent in almost all zombie literature.
The genre can be light-hearted and fun as in Edgar Wright's "Shaun of the Dead," or filled with dark humor, as in Michele Soavi's "Cemetery Man." The undead are typically shown to be a pale reflection of our lesser selves: unthinking, unfeeling members of a fading civilization.
One series that has quickly taken off is "The Walking Dead" graphic novel collection by Robert Kirkman. Now a highly-rated television series on AMC, "The Walking Dead" follows a small band of survivors following a zombie outbreak. As the story develops, Kirkman uses the zombie backdrop to portray what happens to morals, ethics, laws, relationships, and many other human elements in the midst of a breakdown in society.
"World War Z" by Max Brooks is another genre favorite, soon to be a motion picture. The storytelling is done in a narrative format — a collection of personal accounts from survivors from the epidemic. The action seems closer and more realistic, with a fair amount of political and social commentary mixed in.
The series of books "Monster Nation," "Monster Island," and "Monster Planet" by David Wellington introduce many new and different elements to the zombie genre. Under specific circumstances in this world, consciousness can be retained even while the body decays giving birth to the thinking zombie. Some characters also exhibit supernatural powers. The world portrayed by Wellington is bleak, grim and terrifying but also filled with detail, friendships and the need to survive.
Another new direction for zombie fiction is the reimagining of literature classics … but with zombies. A prime example would be Seth Grahame-Smith's "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" (or, the graphic novel adapted by Tony Lee). Not only does the Regency-era populace have to contend with the living dead, but with pirates and ninjas as well! Similarly, with "Zombie Notes," author Laurie Rozakis presents a parody study guide to many world classics such as "Romeo and Juliet and Zombies," and "A Tale of Two Cities Overrun with Zombies."
In any good post-apocalyptic scenario, you have to have a plan for survival. Try Max Brooks' "Zombie Survival Guide." Brooks maps out every element of how to survive in a doom-filled world overflowing with zombies. From weapons and combat to home defense and fortifying public places, Brooks seems to have thought of everything.
A similar book is "The Zombie Combat Manual" by Roger Ma. Ma not only evaluates weapons, but discusses their uses, and need for maintenance. Ma also painstakingly instructs in strategy and technique in combat methods against the living dead!
All of these books and more are available at the Newport Beach Public Library, online at http://www.newportbeachlibrary.org. Use the library catalog to search, read reviews, and place holds on the genre of your choice!

A Truth Journal: September 11th, Terrorism 13 Years Later: What Have The Saudis Done To Prevent Another?: From Denny: While the somber ceremonies at the White House and across the nation remember the horrific terrorism of the day now known as "9/11" perhaps it's time to take a penetrating look at the center of this terrorism: Saudi Arabia and the Arab League. For the past 13 years it's astounding to note that neither the U. S. government or the world media have taken Saudi Arabia and other Arab League nations to task for fomenting and financing this global terrorism.
Saudi Arabia in particular, as well as their neighbors, have consistently offered excuses and deflected criticism for the last 13 years, claiming no real responsibility cultural, politically or religiously. It is in their national self-interest to stomp out terrorism yet they continue to finance and arm these marauding groups like ISIL and al-Qaeda. The Saudis are notorious for making grandiose promises they never keep. The Saudis are well versed in telling the West what we want to hear yet never - ever - deliver substantially...

There is no floating point, but there would certainly be room for it in a 65 nm version. It seems to me that the key difficulty for building larger clusters out of these things is the imbalance between computing and memory bandwidth. That is fine for rendering and routing, but not so fine for general purpose computing. 16 cores per DDR interface (doesn't say if they are 64 or 128 bits wide, but I would guess 64 based on reasonable size package pin counts) seems way too skinny a pipe to memory to be reasonable. -Larry

Press Release
Claus Goedicke
From 26 February to 23 April 2016, Galerie m Bochum shows is showing a group of monochrome images by Claus Goedicke.
, 2002, 160 x 123 cm
, 2001, 160 x 130 cm
Claus Goedicke (b. 1966, lives and works in Berlin) depicts everyday objects in his photographic work, most recently in his series "Some Things." He is interested in how the object relates to the pictorial space, and coloration likewise plays an essential role, expressed in a special way in his monochrome pictures (2001–2003).
For years, Claus Goedicke collected empty plastic bottles of different colors and removed their labels in order to then stage them in his photographs. He finds photography to be the predestined medium to do justice to the specific material qualities and coloring of this type of object.
The opaque bottles are positioned front and center in the pictures, illuminated by changing degrees of daylight. The background matches the color of the respective object in each case. This monochromy in conjunction with a horizon line that is accentuated to varying degrees reduces the depth of the image and makes the bottles seem to pulsate, fusing with the same-color surfaces around them and yet standing out plastically from their surroundings.
The plastic material and its coloration absorb the light and color of the surrounding space. "The plastic containers are the protagonists in my research into the possibilities of color in photography." The reflections that play across each object's surfaces delineate its shape and enhance the impression of plasticity. The eye follows the gradually developing color, the tonal nuances that subtly hint at the contours of the space and the lighting conditions.
At the same time, however, the viewer keeps getting caught up in details that interrupt the flow of pure observation: the threads of the bottle openings, seams that bear witness to the production process, or pressure points left behind by the bottle's use.
This conjoining of purely artistic considerations with a documentary approach, incorporating influences from applied photography, encourages us to see the world of merchandise that surrounds with new eyes. The original everyday function of the objects remains at the back of our minds despite their abstraction, so that the images are perceived both as autonomous pictorial inventions and as documents of their times.
Claus Goedicke's monochrome photographs thus hone our perception. The reduction of the image elements and the subtle pictorial information provided enable us to focus on the themes of color, form, light and materiality.

After concluding a 20-year playing career in 2006, Eddie Pérez opened a new chapter in his baseball life in 2007...He is now in his 11th season on the Braves' staff and is in his second season as first base coach.
He served as Atlanta's bullpen coach from 2007 until May 2015, when he moved to first base under manager Brian Snitker.
Pérez played 11 seasons at the Major League level, including nine with the Braves.
He played 18 of his 20 professional seasons in the Braves organization.

Pérez was on seven postseason squads for Atlanta (1995-99, 2001, 2004) and played in 30 postseason games...His .464 (13-for-28) batting average in National League Championship Series competition is the highest ever for a catcher (minimum 25 at-bats).
Pérez batted .500 (10-for-20) in the 1999 NLCS vs. the New York Mets and claimed series MVP honors.
Pérez spent the 2002 season with the Cleveland Indians and played with the Milwaukee Brewers in 2003 before re-joining the Braves in 2004.
Right shoulder tendinitis plagued Pérez throughout the 2005 season, and he spent the entire 2006 campaign at Double-A Mississippi...He was limited to just 13 games in 2006, but spent much of his time assisting M-Braves Manager Jeff Blauser.
Pérez, who became a U.S. citizen in August 2014, attended Doctor Raul Cuenca High School in Ciudad Ojeda, Venezuela, where he played volleyball and baseball.
He and his wife, Marisol, have one daughter, Maried, and one son, Andres Eduardo, and reside in Duluth, Ga.

Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze sat down with ESPN's Ivan Maisel for his podcast to discuss the upcoming season. Here are a few highlights from Freeze:
On Robert Nkemdiche at defensive tackle:
Robert stays about the same. He's at about 295 pounds. He fluctuates from 295-305 pounds. I have never seen a 295-pound man built like him. He has a six pack at 295 pounds. He's a special athlete, and we're excited. That's where he belongs long-term for his NFL career, if he stays healthy. We think he can be dominant inside. We will go to some 3-4 stuff, too, where he moves out some, but he will primarily be an inside guy.
More on Robert Nkemdiche:
Throughout the recruiting process, we always thought he would move inside. In the bowl game, he played inside the whole game and had his best game of the year by far. He was so active and disruptive against Georgia Tech in the bowl game.
On Laquon Treadwell and his ability and willingness to block:
It's very unusual in a young player. There are not many high school receivers who come in with the mentality that blocking is very important to them. Coaches will always tell them that, but for the kid to grasp that it's an important role for them on the team is not the norm. We could make a cut-up reel right now of his blocking last year that is absolutely way beyond a freshman in maturity. He will inspire those other receivers to block also. He enjoy it. He loves it. He gets a kick out of it. And he has gained some weight. He has gained another 10-15 pounds and will definitely be a great blocker for us.
More on Treadwell:
He's now moved back outside. He will play the outside guy where Donte (Moncrief) was last year. He should see more explosive plays. He had some, but in our stuff, he probably didn't get asked to do that a lot last year, but he will this year.
On cyclical world of college football and lack of star quality in the Southeastern Conference:
I don't (think the SEC takes a step back). If you just look at the way all of us have recruited, if the recruiting services are close to being right, there are a lot of players who are going to be on the field who we don't know about. Right now, there's not the star power that there has been the last couple of year, but it will be back very soon.

. @CoachHughFreeze said next step for DL Robert Nkemdiche is to "dominate." Nkemdiche must defeat single-blockers at least 70% of time.-- Adam Rittenberg (@ESPNRittenberg) July 21, 2014
A few big stops left for @CoachHughFreeze starting with CFBLive with @CoachGusMalzahn & @UKCoachStoops. #ESPNSEC pic.twitter.com/U4Dub39Cic-- Kyle Campbell (@CampbellKyle) July 21, 2014
Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn, Kentucky head coach Mark Stoop and Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze discuss the state of the SEC on College Football Live. Here a few highlights from Freeze:
On recruiting:
"We're a unique staff that has a core values that attracts a certain type of kid. We had the early opportunity to play for us because of what we inherited when we got there. Kids are drawn to that. And if you ever get a kid on our campus, we have a chance. It's one of the most beautiful places in the world, and our facilities have been upgraded to be top notch. They see the passion and love we have for what we do there. Hopefully, it transcended into helping them become the type of men they need to be in life."
On expectations:
"I'm determined that I won't let pressure definite how we go about doing things. I do know that we're good enough now to be relevant in the SEC West. What that means in the win-loss column, I have no idea, because no one is backing up, but we closed the gap to where we should in the factors of who wins this league."

Hugh Freeze said Robert Nkemdiche will play at 285 this year. Came to Ole Miss around 300. Laquon Treadwell has gained 12-15 pounds.-- Chris Low (@ClowESPN) July 21, 2014
Hugh Freeze not backing down from expectations: For us to be relevant in the SEC West. I believe we're in a position now that we should be.-- Chris Low (@ClowESPN) July 21, 2014
Freeze feels good about Ole Miss' depth with the exception of offensive line, receiver and tight end.-- Chris Low (@ClowESPN) July 21, 2014

We make regular music
What goes up must come down
Sorta like balloons when you let go of 'em (Let go!)
Jealous ones wanna knock my style (Style!)
Put a hole in ya head and let out the helium
[Vast Aire]
I came up with cats that ain't give two shit
We grew up in the projects with elevator piss
Dad ain't there, moms is cranky
That's why she comes home yells and spanks me
This shit ain't cotton candy
And if it is the taste is shady
Be all You Can Be - but this ain't the Army
You will get tossed it will not be gravy
New York, New York, I'm in Uptown baby
Now I rest in Brooklyn, the city is crazy
Buildings fall down, that's friction homie
Elevate the camp wit a bunch of Shinobi
I'm not lying (I'm not lying)
I can form a sword like Red & Green Lion
Knowledge is grand like a G in my hand
I'mma hustler but I don't cook coke in the pan
You know!
I'm not a rapper I just talk a lot
I'm not a rapper I just talk a lot
[Vast Aire]
And that wouldn't be cool if you called my name
Cuz you'll be soft like video games
Same shit different day, new toilet
You got a card on the table, I might pull it
Texas Hold 'Em, watch me fold 'em
Off the wall but my skin ain't turn white
You just entered the chamber of a thousand falls
Shit, we gon' be here all night
Peace to Metro, he gave me the insight
Me blessing the mic that's my birthright
Style's so ill it'll turn rocks to sand
Come a little closer and I'll show you unseen hand
Son, we on our own Pig Latin
We be on some infe kimpe
Now everybody sounds like Jay
And everybody loves moving the purple and ye'
You know!
I'm not a rapper I just talk a lot
I'm not a rapper I just talk a lot

Areas of Study at CHSS
You can be part of the exceptional College of the Humanities and Social Sciences (CHSS) experience for your whole Montclair State University education, for a few required courses — or for many possible combinations between the two.
However much time you spend in Dickson Hall, you will benefit from the teaching of our first-rate faculty. CHSS' internationally renowned professors — not teaching assistants — conduct all their own classes. Many also select students to work with them in cutting-edge research projects.
Where this can take you
A CHSS education launches students onto many, varied paths both professionally and in further study. Our English majors have become teachers, paralegals, admissions counselors — even gone to work at MTV. Psychology graduates are working as nurses, social workers, speech therapists — and in marketing and the New York State Supreme Court. Naturally, some Political Science and History majors go on to law school — while others have gone into laboratory work or marketing.
As a Montclair State undergraduate, you must choose a major by the end of your sophomore year. Each major is hosted by one (or two, in the case of some double-majors) of the University's colleges, where most of your coursework will take place.
Whatever department and college you major in, you will come to CHSS for the world-language and writing components of Montclair State University's General Education requirements, which all students need to graduate.
Areas of study
Undergraduates can choose from among more than 20 majors, nearly 50 minors, and numerous areas of graduate study and professional certificate programs. Inter-disciplinary programs such as Medical Humanities, Gender, Sexuality, and Women's Studies include classes in several departments; some, like Film Studies, also include classes in other colleges.
Concentrations within each major add even more depth to the CHSS experience. French and Spanish majors can study civilization as well as their chosen language, and can become certified translators or interpreters.
Click on any of the links below to learn more about the rich academic experience CHSS has to offer.
|Graduate Studies
Centers, Institutes, and Societies
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences also sponsors a number of affiliated programs that are academic in nature but provide specific support of students' studies and career preparation or advance the application of academics in the broader society.
Click on any of the links below to learn more about these opportunities to enhance your CHSS experience.
Teachers as Scholars Program
The Teachers as Scholars program provides public school teachers and administrators an opportunity to immerse themselves in scholarly topics and issues in small, liberal arts seminars offered by university faculty.
All 25 of the Montclair State University Network for Educational Renewal school districts have endorsed this program, pledging to provide substitutes for teachers who wish to attend. The seminars are offered free of charge to participating teachers and take place on the Montclair State campus. Refreshments and free parking are provided.
