Deloitte Award Winners Picked an Overlooked Project
Deloitte Award winners UBCC picked a project that had been on the AMR project list for over a year before being chosen. "It was a pricing project, which was different from a lot of the other projects," said team member Daniel Grossman. "Pricing analysis seemed interesting because pricing is the confluence of finance and marketing and we felt like we would learn a lot," he explained.
"We were surprised and very honored to be among the finalists," said UBCC team member Anne Leung. Members of the UBCC team had worked well together going back to their first year at Anderson, according to Leung. Grossman noted that each member of the team contributed vital leadership at different times over the two terms of the project.
"I thought the AMR experience was nice because it focused on some of the soft aspects of being a manager," said Grossman. "We had to be very efficient about how we communicated, about hitting milestones and accomplishing a very complex project just like we will in the workplace."
The significance of the team's work became clear to Grossman as he edited the final draft of the report. "I was overwhelmed by how much we had done and how everything flowed into the deliverable that we were giving to our client," he said. "It was a massive effort," he recalls. "I don't think any of us were prepared for how long it took to write and edit a 60-page document."
Anne Leung found it rewarding to see how theory from the classroom, transformed by the team, was received by the client. "A lot of the things we did, like customer surveys and making cold calls, seemed like surprises to them," she said. "They were really excited about what we were able to bring to the table. Things that business school students take for granted were new to our client and his associates." Grossman agrees. "It was worth it when we saw the impact our project had on the client."

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The 141st season of Yale Football begins this Saturday at 1 p.m. with a tough, non-league contest in the Patriot League. The Bulldogs take on Colgate (0-3) in a Homecoming Game at Andy Kerr Stadium that can be seen live on the Patriot League Network and heard on the Yale Football Radio Network (WELI 960 AM in New Haven area).
Yale has a 25-11-3 lead in a series heading into the 40th meeting. They began playing in 1909 and all but two games have been at New Haven. The Raiders and Elis split the two games at Hamilton.
QB Gavin McCarney ran for four touchdowns and threw for two others as Colgate beat Yale 47-24 at Yale Bowl last season. McCarney (17 of 22, no int.) threw for 275 yards and ran for 85 on a day the Raiders rolled up 544 total yards. They also got help from RB Jordan McCord, who had 138 yards and a score. The Bulldogs also had some offensive highlights with RB Tyler Varga leading all players with 275 all-purpose yards. He rushed for 125 and a TD on 21 attempts while catching three passes for another score. WR Cameron Sandquist's 10 catches for 76 yards and a score led the Elis. He was the main target for Yale QB Eric Williams (21 of 40, 3 int.), who ran for 114 yards and threw for 171.
The Bulldogs had a team record 103 offensive plays in a 49-14 win at New Haven in 1968…Bob Milligan '72 caught three TD passes in a 40-21 Blue win in 1971 at the Bowl… Yale established a school-record by forcing nine Colgate fumbles in 1974 at the Bowl, a 30-7 Eli win… Raider back Kenny Gamble had 220 yards on 36 carries in 1986, but the Blue won 28-23 at the Bowl… Yale TE Nate Lawrie had 16 catches and the teams combined for 92 points at Hamilton in 2003 during a 52-40 Colgate win.
Yale beat Georgetown in each of the last six openers. The last loss in a season opener was against San Diego in 2006, one of two straight losses to open the year against USD. The Bulldogs won their first 59 season openers before a scoreless tie with Bates in 1932. The first loss came two years later at the hands of Columbia. The Elis are 119-18-2 overall.
Yale was picked seventh in the 2013 Ivy League pre-season media poll. The Bulldogs finished 2-8 and were eighth in the Ivy last fall despite defeating the 2012 league champions and competing in many close games. Defending champion Penn took the top spot followed by Harvard, Brown and Dartmouth. Princeton and Cornell were fifth and sixth while Columbia was picked No. 8. There were 17 voters, including two media representatives per school and one national member.
Colgate, coming off a road loss at New Hampshire last week despite 144 rushing yards by Demetrius Russell, is looking for its first win. The Raiders opened at Air Force before facing Albany at home in week two.
1 elected team captain (Palin)
4 returning Elis who started a game at QB last fall (Williams, Russell, Furman, Varga)
5 All-Ivy players (Gavin, Oppenheimer, Randall, Smith, Varga)
6-8 height of the tallest player (Iverson)
11 wide receivers listed on roster
20 seniors
96 players on roster
99th current season of Yale football in the Bowl
290 pounds of the heaviest player (Friedline)
595 regular season games played in the Bowl
Junior All-America candidate Tyler Varga (Kitchener, Ont.) led the nation with 199.4 all-purpose yards per game in 2012 and was the Ivy League leader with 119 rushing yards per game (10th in FCS). He rushed for over 100 yards in five (most in Ivy) of his seven games (9 yards shy vs. Cornell, 4 vs. Penn) and was the only Ivy player to rush for more than 200 in a game. His 220 at Columbia was sixth best for a Bulldog player and got him FCS national RB of the week from College Football Performance Awards. He was the first newcomer to run for triple digits in his Yale debut since Mike McLeod in 2005. Varga, who played at the University of Western Ontario in 2011, was a star track & field athlete who also competed in swimming, basketball and baseball. Varga was a star regional sprinter and jumper, but injured his leg and was convinced by his coach to help the team by throwing the shot (45', 6.5") and javelin (110').
Injuries ravaged the quarterback position by midseason in 2012, so plenty of guys got experience. Eric Williams (Portland, Ore.), Logan Scott (Woodland Hills, Calif.) and emergency backups WR Derek Russell (Newton, Mass.), WR Henry Furman (Portland, Ore.) and TB Tyler Varga (Kitchener, Ont.) all had starts behind center. All five with snaps behind center return this fall. Another option arrived over the summer. Sophomore Clemson transfer Morgan Roberts (Charlotte, NC) has had his share of snaps and could earn the top job.
Senior Henry Furman, who was a JV quarterback in 2010 and 2011, made a successful transition to receiver in 2012 and had nine catches, including a TD, as a backup. After three QBs went down in the Penn game, he jumped in and played behind center the last four Saturdays. His first collegiate start at any position came at QB against Princeton when the former Lincoln High (Portland, Ore.) School star completed 18 of 28 passes for 184 yards and a score as Yale's most valuable offensive player. He threw for 5,000 yards and 43 TDs before coming to Yale.
Senior Derek Russell (Newton, Mass.) was the team's top holder for kicks, a backup receiver, a kick coverage guy and an emergency backup QB in 2012. He got plenty of action in all those roles until suffering an injury while leading the Blue to a win over Penn as the emergency QB. When Yale's starting quarterback went down with an injury on the game's third series vs. Penn, Russell took over,
completing 13 of 20 passes, including a score, and running the ball 11 times for 61 yards and a TD. Russell, now a strong safety and holder, passed for 2,100 yards and 21 TDs his senior year at Newton South High and then bounced around different positions at Yale before settling into his first collegiate varsity role in 2012.
Sophomore Eric Williams (Portland, Ore.) started seven games in 2012 and was unable to play in three (Columbia, Princeton, Harvard). Against Colgate, he rushed for 114 yards (threw for 171) to become the first Yale QB to rush for triple digits since Sept. 21, 2002. Williams had 1,056 passing yards and six TDs. He is the brother of Yale football players Scott '13 and Sean Williams '11, and the son of former NFL player, Larry (Browns, Patriots, Saints, Chargers). Eric became Yale's first freshman starter behind center since Mike McClellan '01 (first Eli rookie QB to start a varsity game since World War II) in the 1997 season opener at home against Brown. Williams was the starting QB at Jesuit High School in Portland for two years before his family moved, and he spent his senior campaign at St. Ignatius near Cleveland. One of the assistant coaches on the St. Ignatius team was former Yale captain Rory Hennessey '05.
Morgan Roberts, a sophomore who played at Clemson last fall, was behind center in the first series at Brown during the Sept. 7 scrimmage. He completed 10 of 15 passes over five possessions. As a red-shirt freshman in 2012 at Clemson, Roberts was the No. 3 signal-caller and completed two of his three passes.
Junior WR Grant Wallace was second on the team last fall with 35 grabs for 371 yards and three scores. His top outing came on the biggest stage with 11 catches for 118 yards and a score at Harvard. Wallace, the son of former Bulldog Bob Wallace '78, had three or more receptions in four games.
Senior WR Cameron Sandquist led the team with 54 catches and 589 yards last season, including a career-best 10 catches against Colgate. He entered the season with 21 career grabs and kicked off 2012 with a bang. In the opener at Georgetown, he connected on a school-record, 98-yard pass play in the second quarter. His 187 yards in that game were the most by an Ivy player in 2012. Sandquist, who has six career TD grabs, scored on his first two collegiate receptions as a freshman in 2010 against Columbia. He was also the team's top punt returner; his 37-yarder vs. Princeton was the longest in the league. He is equally famous for his role as shortstop on the 2004 Little League World Series Northwest (Redmond LL) Team.
Sophomore DB Cole Champion (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.) earned a starting safety spot early in 2012 and is the leading returning tackler (46-25-71) from last fall. He notched a career-high nine solos (10 overall) against Lafayette and then had 8-3-11 vs. Penn. Champion was an all-state football linebacker and lacrosse midfielder at St. Thomas Aquinas High. He is the school's career tackles leader and helped them earn "national championships" in 2008 (with current teammate LB Dylan Drake '13) and 2010. He has played on stages as big as Cowboys Stadium and against opponent running backs as talented as South Carolina's Marcus Lattimore and Florida State's James Wilder. Not surprisingly, nine of his former teammates are playing Division I football, five in the FCS and four Ivy Leaguers. His father, Gregg Champion, played football at New Hampshire.
Junior Kyle Cazzetta (Slate Hill, N.Y.) has been named to numerous pre-season all-conference teams after averaging 40 per punt and landing 13 inside the 20 in 2012. Cazzetta has been the starter the last two seasons and could also be placekicking this fall. His career-best outing was at Brown with a 46.1 average on seven kicks and four inside the Brown 20, including a 72-yarder (3 yards shy of school record). He is No. 16 (2nd in region) on Phil Steele's FCS pre-season national list of punters.
Two All-Ivy League seniors, a pair of juniors and a sophomore are the most experienced of the offensive linemen back for 2013.
Seniors: LT 79 Wes Gavin (6-6, 286, San Diego, Calif.), C 60 John Oppenheimer (6-0, 264, Menlo Park, Calif.)
Juniors: RT 70 Ben Carbery (6-5, 287, Oak Park, Ill.), LG 67 William Chism (6-3, 277, Ridgeland, Miss.)
Sophomore: RG 50 Luke Longinotti (6-4, 265, Burlingame, Calif.).
Here are some other notes on Yale offensive linemen.
LT Wes Gavin had numerous scholarship offers but came to New Haven and became Yale's freshman MVP in 2010 before getting All-Ivy honors in 2012… He was named scholar-athlete by the San Diego chapter of the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame while also throwing the shot and discus in high school. Both of Gavin's parents are under 5-foot-8… John Oppenheimer, who moved over from the defense his sophomore year and became an All-Ivy center in 2012, played both sides of the line in high school. An active member of the Mandi Schwartz Marrow Donor Registration Drive at Yale, he made a live-saving marrow donation last spring and went to Washington, D.C. this past summer to speak to members of congress about the need for funding. His father, Peter Oppenheimer, is Apple's senior vice president and Chief Financial Officer… LG William Chism owns a fire wood business back home in Mississippi. His father, Brad Chism, played football at Millsap College and was a Rhodes Scholar. He is President of Zata|3 Consulting, a Washington, D.C.-based direct voter contact firm. The younger Chism had offers from every Ivy school and several other FCS institutions… RG Ben Carbery was a National Merit finalist and the captain of his high school's Scholastic Bowl team, which finished 17th at the 2010 National Academic Quiz Tournament national championship (he was 8th in the individual competition). Carbery, who was Yale's freshman MVP in 2011, is the son of Paul '83 and Sherry '83 Carbery. His aunt, Patti Carbery '86, played basketball and softball at Yale. Luke Longinotti, who played in all 10 games last year as a newcomer, was a three-sport (thrower, basketball) athlete in high school. His father, Ron, swam at Stanford and his mom, Libby, was varsity golfer at Stanford. His sister was a volleyball player at Columbia.
Fordham, coming to the Bowl on Oct. 19, is 3-0 after beating Temple last week, 30-29, at Philadelphia... NFL-style (18-feet, 10 inches) goal posts were installed on Clint Frank Field. The posts at Yale Bowl – and in all of college football – are 23'- 4"… The Bulldogs have two new faces on the coaching staff, one is familiar and the other is not. Paul Rice, the Bulldogs' 2009 captain, volunteered for the Yale program for a couple of seasons before becoming an offensive GA last year at Georgia Tech. He has the Eli outside linebackers this season. Meriden, Conn., native Patrick Hatch moved from Stony Brook to New Haven last summer to coach the Yale tight ends.
Yale hasn't won a national championship since 1927, but there are three current Bulldogs who earned national titles before coming to New Haven. Senior LB Chris Brady's 2009 Don Bosco Prep (NJ) team finished first in the national prep poll rankings. Senior LB Dylan Drake and sophomore DB Cole Champion were teammates on the 2008 St. Thomas Aquinas (Fla.) team that earned the mythical national championship.
One hundred and nine former Yale students have become college football head coaches, though no Elis currently serve that role. However, the 2013 Vanderbilt University football team includes two coaches who are former Yale receivers. Bob Shoop '88, a 25-year veteran of college coaching, is the defensive coordinator. Chandler Henley '06, the captain of the 2006 Ivy Champions, is in his second year as an offensive graduate assistant coach. In addition, former Yale offensive lineman Kyle Metzler '03 is the offensive tackles/tight ends coach for Dartmouth.
Dartmouth owns the most Ivy League titles since league play officially began in 1956. Yale and Harvard trail Penn by two for second.
No. Team Last Title
17 Dartmouth 1996
16 Penn 2012
14 Yale 2006
14 Harvard 2011
9 Princeton 2006
4 Brown 2008
3 Cornell 1990
1 Columbia 1961
Next season marks the 100th anniversary of Yale Bowl, which opened for the playing of the 1914 Harvard game. The cornerstone event of the season-long celebration is the Sept. 27 contest with Army, an old rival that helped fill the famous stadium on numerous occasions. Army and Yale last met in 1996 at West Point, the last game in New Haven was 1988. The Bulldogs have played 595 games and are 372-203-20 in the Bowl.
Yale has gone five straight seasons without a tie after regulation time. The Elis are 4-3 in OT games overall since its first, a 34-31 loss at Penn in 2003.The last OT game was a 26-20, triple-extra-session win at Penn in 2007.
Tony Reno, the Joel E. Smilow '54 Head Coach of Yale Football, and some of his players are at world famous Mory's (306 York Street) every Tuesday (Sept. 17 through Nov. 19) at noon for the Dick Galiette Yale Football Media Luncheon.

There are three significant changes in the Yale football program this season. One the fans will notice, the other two are less obvious. There are new Nike uniforms. The "Y-Dog" logo has been taken off the shirt and the stripe on the pants is nothing like the double blue stripes that ran the full length in recent years. The other two changes are in facilities. Clint Frank Field has a new FieldTurf surface, and the varsity strength & conditioning room at the Payne Whitney Gym has been completely renovated with an efficient training system and a synthetic turf track running through the middle of the room.
The following players were elected to the team's leadership council: seniors Beau Palin, John Oppenheimer, Cam Sandquist and Hank Furman; juniors Tyler Varga, Will Chism, Grant Wallace and Will Vaughn; sophomores Eric Williams, Cole Champion, Sebastian Little and Austin Reuland.
Senior CB Max Napolitano (West Lake Village, Calif.) interned with the Milwaukee Brewers last summer and competed in one of the famous sausage races. He wore the brat costume and finished second to former Bulldog punter/placekicker Tom Mante '10, sporting the Italian sausage. Mante, a graduate student at Vanderbilt, also interned with Brewers.
Yale's home opener vs. Cornell is Youth Day, Yale Family Weekend and Coach To Cure MD Day… The Fordham game is New Haven Chamber of Commerce and Walter Camp Football Foundation Day at the Bowl… Heroes Day and Yale Employee Day are the co-promotion when Columbia comes to town… The season finale against Harvard marks the "Fill The Bowl" campaign.
Yale captain Tom McCarthy '10, who works for Morgan Stanley and was in two NFL camps, was third at the 2013 RBC Decathlon, the competition for Wall Street's best athlete. Ex-defensive tackle Jake Stoller '12, also an NFL signee, had a strong peformance.

David R., Prenovost Spirit Family Flag
"Philip and the Grand New Flag Team did a beautiful job on my 'family spirit flag' project. I started with the artwork and Philip helped walk me though the rest of his process-giving me suggestions on a flag pole and what electronic format to deliver my artwork. Philip told me what the project would cost upfront-no surprises and he delivered on time for our annual family gathering-making 'opening ceremonies' and the raising of our flag a special experience. I am deeply grateful to Philip and his whole team and highly recommend Philip and the entire Grand New Flag team."
Paul Z., Veteran U.S. Navy, served on USS Newport LST
"Philip, me and my shipmates of the USS Newport LST absolutely love our ship's flag that you had made for us. Truly one of a kind.. thank you my friend"
Melba, member of the Bicentennial Committee.
"Philip,Your patience in getting our new Starke County Flag design corrected to perfection was appreciated! In order to meet our deadline, you were willing to work day and night to make it happen. We are very pleased with the flags, which arrived ahead of schedule. We found your company on the internet, and, after our first contact, decided that your sincere attitude and willingness to go "above and beyond" made the difference. Thank you again!"

I thought I'd share with you one of my favorite techniques. Instead of starting every project with a chain strip, using a "foundationless" stitch can speed up the start of your project and allow for more stretch than a starting chain would.
A foundationless DC, or DC Chain, is my favorite way to start a simple, lengthwise scarf. It is also good for garments that you crochet from the bottom edge up, since it creates a stretchier edge as compared to a starting chain. It's easy to change a pattern that calls for a starting chain and then a row of DC. Just work a row of foundationless DC (or DC Chain) instead.
Start with a Ch 3 (this chain 3 counts as your first DC stitch). YO, insert hook into the first Ch, YO and pull through. YO and pull through one loop to create the "base chain" (3 loops remain on hook). Now work a DC as normal - YO and pull through 2 loops, YO and pull through last 2 loops.
See the picture above - the last chain made under the hook is the "base chain" and the double crochet will be on top of it, next to the starting chain 3.
To work the next DC Ch, YO and insert the hook into what was the last "base chain" stitch (it's actually a ch 1 at the base of each stitch). To make this easier to find, I usually hold that stitch as I'm finishing the DC so I know where the chain stitch is when I move on to the next one.
YO and pull through, creating the next "base chain". (Hold this stitch if you want to to mark it.) Then work the DC - YO, pull through 2 loops. YO, pull through last 2 loops. Continue working DC Ch for as long as you want your project to be.
So each stitch consists of a base chain (like a ch 1) and finishes with a double crochet, all in one stitch and the beginning chain 3 counts as your first DC.
I have incorporated this stitch in the foundation of my Circle Shrug Vest Pattern, the Long Fingerless Gloves pattern, for the hood on the Wildwood Capelet Pattern, and the Chunky Crochet Button Wrap pattern.

The results of the Bento&co contest are in, and the winning entry is this beautiful bento from Shirley from Singapore.
It was in my top 10 too. The colors, the execution, and the content is impeccable. You can check out the rest of the top 10 as chosen by a group of judges (including myself) here.
Since there were more than 220 entries and most of them were of very high quality, a few of my favorites did not make the top 10. Here are some of them. I liked this one by Lydia from Austria a lot because of the coconut-curry flavored onigiri, the neat little cherry tomato roses, and because it looks so tasty and healthy.
I love the butterfly onigiri in this bento by Mandy from England. The colors are quite muted but it still looks delicious and very healthy too.
This bento by Cyntia from France also has muted colors.It just goes to show that you don't always need bright reds and yellows to make a bento look pretty. I also like the neat little rows of food. There were a few bentos with straight rows of food like this - maybe it's a trend? The detail is fantastic - check out the mischievous radish boy in the corner.
There were a number of panda themed bentos entered. This one by Marie from Hungry was my favorite. Look at those cute baby pandas!
Last but not least is this simple little bento by Motoko from Japan. It's very plain compared to the more showy entries, but it looks delicious and makes me feel terribly nostalgic.
Congratulations to Shirley and all the winners, and kudos for the staff at Bento&co for pulling off yet another big bento contest. Above all, to everyone who entered the contest and allowed us to enjoy your work - thank you! I'm already looking forward to next year's contest.
ETA: Bento&co made this great infographic about the contest. Check it out!

One thing that I noticed with most of the bentos in the competition (and other bento examples on other sites) is that they overflow the box . . . I mean, how do you put a lid on it when everything hangs out over the edge? I like the practical images that show the food fitting into the container where the lid can fit on.
I was actually thinking the same thing. As much as the winner's box was beyond breathtaking...I'm talking wallpaper/screensaver beautiful...it's not something I could actually take to work and eat. Not only is it overflowing and in no way can be contained in that small box, the bit of tofu in that beautiful ceramic cup is sitting in its poaching liquid and is in no way transportable.
Me too! I would like to see the competition focus on keeping it in the box. No offense to those who had the beautiful creations this time though :) They were fun to look it!
I agree about the lids. It vexes me to see pictures of bentos that overflow out of the box. There is no way a lid would go on without squashing things, rendering it unappetizing looking. I like simple lunches the best, though. No cut outs for me.
I wondered the same thing! How do you put the lid on the overflowing bentos. Lol.. That is why I just loved the one from Japan. the simple rice balls with umeboshi just made my mouth water!
I love the winner's bento - it's showy but with minimal effort and uses pretty healthy food! I especially love the rabbit onigiri and the fact that only a few decorations were used to enhance the bento - what makes it look tasty is the natural vibrancy of the food.
The bunnies and the pandas are just too cute for words. I love the showcase type runway style ideas these people used, even the super simple comfort food one. It looks like a perfect break from the daily toil.
Gorgeous! The pandas are just too cute for words.
But the last one, the simple bento, really appeals to me. It's beautiful too, but also so homey. My mother never made bentos, but it looks like the sort of thing a mother would make.
I'm absolutely thrilled that I got a "honourable mention" here on your site despite not making it into the Top Ten. Thank you, Maki! \(^_^)/
There were so many awesome and creative entries, I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for you judges to pick only ten of them. I know I had a hard time just selecting one out of the ten to vote for!
Hello Maki. I like this bento contest very much. Lots of the bentos are so pretty and cute.
I was a participant, and now I feel bad. Not because I did not win -- I knew I never had a chance. You seee, my bento is in the contest (and on the Facebook page), but my country is not among the 22 listed in the infographics. And on the Facebook page my bento has another person's name and description on it - she must feel cheated as well. I'm sorry that I'm whining on your page, which I like so much, but I don't know where else to do it. Feel free to delete this comment if you like.
Charlotte, we are very sorry for this oversight., we didn't copy/paste your bento description next to your bento picture on the facebook page and this led to our mistake.
We will try to modify our inforgraphics, at least to have accurate info for our record.
I recognized that little radish boy right away...it's Waldo! That is a "Where's Waldo?" bento...BRILLIANT!
Haha, you're right! So cute and appetizing, all of these bento boxes.
All really beautiful and inspiring. I do love Motoko's - I'm a sucker for simplicity and hers is so pretty and tidy. :)
This is really kool !! i like the ones from Cyndia from France which had muted colors....
They all look so awesome and delicious! Yum yum yum!
Heya, I can't see the images except for the winning one for some reason. Can you fix this please? Thank you!

The long-running Hope College TRIO Upward Bound program has received a major five-year grant from the U.S. Department of Education.
The new grant, which totals more than $1,835,000, goes into effect starting June 1, 2013, and will provide support through May 2018, even enabling the program to increase the number of students it serves. Hope College Upward Bound has received funding through the federal TRIO program every year since the Hope program began in 1968.
Hope College Upward Bound seeks to generate the skills and motivation necessary for success in education beyond high school among students from low-income and first generation families who have the potential to pursue a college education but may lack adequate preparation or support. The goal of the program is to increase the academic performance and motivational levels of eligible students so that persons may complete secondary schooling and successfully pursue post-secondary educational programs.
The program is currently funded for 75 students each year, which will increase to 85 annually with the new support. Elizabeth Colburn (pictured), director of Hope College Upward Bound, noted that the program consistently has a substantial waiting list, 30 for this coming fall.
The program works with students from three school districts in Allegan and Ottawa counties, including Holland, West Ottawa and Fennville. The program's success rate in enrolling students in post-secondary institutions averages between 90 percent and 95 percent; this past year, it was 100 percent.
While the focus of Upward Bound is on academic advising and support, the program also continually offers personal and career counseling as well as involvement in cultural and recreational activities.
Throughout the academic year, students come to Hope College twice a week to receive help in their high school subjects from Hope College tutors. One Friday or Saturday per month, the students meet for three hours to attend workshops on topics such as goal-setting, decision- making, the college search process, career awareness and time management. A senior seminar which meets once a week helps seniors with the college admission process, financial aid and ACT/SAT testing.
A six-week summer residential program on the Hope campus exposes students to the academic and social world of college. Students live in a residence hall, attend classes in the morning, and participate in career internships and elective classes in the afternoon. Evenings are set aside for study sessions and social and cultural activities. This summer's session will begin on Monday, June 18, and continue through Friday, July 27. The theme will be "Fair Trade," with an emphasis on making interdisciplinary connections.
"The science, English and history curriculum will be integrated together so that the students can see the connections between the classes that they're taking," Colburn said.
In addition to the structured academic and social activities, the Upward Bound students also volunteer for community projects, such as watershed clean-up and visiting with the elderly at senior living facilities. They also provide rest stops for the Holland 100 bike tour each summer in order to raise money for their cultural enrichment and college scholarship funds.
Colburn noted that the program benefits from strong parental involvement, a key component in encouraging students to achieve in school.
"We have an active parent group that meets every month," she said. "That's been a welcome addition. We've always encouraged it, but the past few years we've really worked at making it an active part of the program."
Similarly, she said, Upward Bound alumni remain committed to the program—for example, returning to share their experiences and perspective with the current students.
Upward Bound operates as part of a network of programs at the college focused on enhancing young students' educational attainment. The Children's After School Achievement (CASA) program, celebrating its 25th year, provides academic and cultural enrichment for at-risk first- through fifth-grade students. In recent years, CASA and Upward Bound have worked together to run a "Step Up" program to continue to engage middle-school students who otherwise fall between the two initiatives.
"In those middle-school years, they're coming to campus twice a week and our Upward Bound students are tutoring them," Colburn said.
Hope College Upward Bound Program is one of the oldest continuous Upward Bound programs in the country, according to Colburn, and has been administered through Hope since its inception. The college contributes more than $120,000 in support of the program each year, as well as a community environment that Colburn noted adds much more.
"We get a lot of support from the faculty and staff—there's a lot of good collaboration going on with multiple programs at the college," she said. "We also have 40 to 50 Hope students working with us throughout the year, as tutors, office assistants and van drivers. Many of the tutors return year after year, and that makes a good connection for our students as well."

In the aftermath of widespread and deadly floods, state lawmakers now must determine what financial costs and potential legislation could arise from the devastation that has left 17 counties on a long and arduous path to recovery.
Those answers could come soon as a bipartisan panel of lawmakers forms at the state Capitol to address what legislation — if any — is needed to help residents in affected areas. Moreover, the panel of about 12 lawmakers will also review existing statutes to ensure that laws provide the most effective support tools for agencies and victims during these types of disasters.
"There's no partisanship to these floods," said House Minority Leader Brian DelGrosso, a Republican from Loveland, who is working to assemble the panel. Rising waters from the Big Thompson River overflowed roads and damaged hundreds of homes in his district.
"We need to make sure we're getting roads and power back in place, and legislation needs to be focused and specific. We can't just have 30 different bills trying to address various issues," DelGrosso said.
House Speaker Mark Ferrandino, a Denver Democrat, agreed there's no time for partisanship in the aftermath of the floods.
"Unlike Washington, we're coming together to address a difficult issue facing our state," Ferrandino said in a statement.
After a barrage of wildfires the past two years scorched hundreds of homes, a handful of committees were formed to explore best practices in wildfire response and prevention. Among them was a wildfire insurance task force formed by Gov. John Hickenlooper that this week unveiled findings that include recommendations that lawmakers charge fees on homes built in the woods.
To date, Hickenlooper has signed three executive orders and allocated about $90 million in state funds to go toward early response and recovery efforts surrounding the floods. Hickenlooper had alluded to the possibility of a special session to address some concerns in the aftermath of the floods, but on Wednesday he announced it would not be needed.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has pledged to cover much of the emergency response costs incurred by the state.
"We know there's federal funds, but however much we as a state need to allocate after the floods will be a top priority for the budget committee," said Rep. Crisanta Duran, a Denver Democrat, who will assume the role of chair of the budget committee in November.
Aside from costs and possible legislation tied to infrastructure, some have an eye on regulatory reforms to the often contentious oil and gas industry.
More than a dozen "notable" oil spills have dotted the state, and efforts to ban drilling on floodplains are in the preliminary stages.
Alan Gilbert, an official with the Department of Natural Resources and assistant to the executive director for flood response, said the natural disaster could lead to regulations tightening oil and gas activity in flood plains.
"That's been a legislative question in Colorado for many years. … It looks to be an issue again," Gilbert said.
Newly enacted state rules mandate setbacks for oil and gas drilling around drinking water sources at 300 feet — something lawmakers might look to increase.
Rep. Mike Foote, a Democrat from Lafayette who sponsored a pair of regulatory oil and gas bills that died in the last legislative session, was noncommittal about whether, in the wake of floods, he would sponsor a measure that seeks more regulation on drilling.
"It's not a secret that people are talking about setbacks from waterways, which is valid," Foote said.
In an interview with Colorado Public News, Rep. Diane Mitsch Bush, a Steamboat Springs Democrat, said she planned to take up the issue of water contamination and greater setbacks for oil and gas wells from waterways.
But when recently asked about potential legislation, she was more circumspect.
"There needs to be time for assessments. This just is not something we can rush into," Mitsch Bush said.

We're not sure why Floyd Mayweather, Jr. decided to pull out giant wads of cash from a duffel bag and count them for the whole world to see, but he did.
Floyd was the #1 highest-earning athlete in the US last year, making $85 million — which was $25 million more than the second-highest earning athlete. So he has money to burn and, apparently, count.
In case you were wondering what $1 million looks like in packs of hundreds, here you go (via Off the Bench):

Test-driving Android GUI
You can download the example program from here.
The idea behind Android instrumentation framework is that there are instrumentation components that resemble a lot the usual Activities. The purpose of these instrumentation components, however, is to test-drive other, normal Activities. Let's see the example program!
Install the package in the bin directory as usual:
adb install instrumentation-debug.apk
If the package has been installed before, you first have to uninstall it. This is new in the 1.0 version of the SDK, previously the new installation would simply overwrite the old one.
adb uninstall aexp.instrumentation
Two applications appear in the application folder. "Calculator" is a primitive calculator application used as test target. You can launch it independently and try it yourself. If you launch "Calculator instrumentation launcher", you will be confronted with a button to launch Calculator instrumentation. Once you push it, the calculator launches but its input keypresses will come from the instrumentation component. You will see the input fields filled up automatically, the addition button pushed and the result displayed. Then both the calculator instance and the launcher will disappear but if you check the logs (adb logcat), you will see that the test was successful.
The key instruction is in CalculatorInstrumentationLauncher.java where the instrumentation component is launched:
new ComponentName(
CalculatorInstrumentation.class ),
null );
This launches CalculatorInstrumentation component which is a descendant of android.app.Instrumentation. The instrumentation component resembles a normal Activity, except that it is able to drive user input of other activities. This time we launch the Calculator, feed in keypresses (sendCharacterSync()) and invoke one of its method to obtain the result. Note the usage of runOnMainSync() method when we invoke Calculator's method to obtain the result.
It is definitely cool that Android has a user interface-oriented unit testing framework built into the platform. Maybe I am ignorant but I am not aware of any other platform that has this capability. In order to Test Driven Development (TDD), we need a proper unit testing framework and Android has even JUnit integrated. More about that later.

Hi, I am new to Android SDK.I tried the same application.
But Im not able to launch the calculator appliaction from the CalculatorInstrumenattionLauncher App. I created the Calculator, CalculatorInstrumentation & CalculatorInstrumentationLauncher JAVA files in the package of the same project. Even I modified the Manifest.xml also, but still iam not able to launch the app.
Could you please assist me in this.
Thanks in advance

Thank you for your example. I tried to build your example in android platform 2.0.1. The activity "Calculator instrumentation launcher" started then I clicked the "Launch Calculator Instrmentation" button, but nothing happen.
A warning text appears "01-14 09:00:31.029: WARN/ActivityManager(57): Unable to find instrumentation info for: ComponentInfo{com.demo.android.calculator/com.demo.android.calculator.CalculatorInstrumentation}" in eclipse console.
Could you give me a hit about this?
Thank you.

I am facing some problems in injecting motion events. Its a permission issue even if INJECT_EVENT permission is there in Manifest. Do you have any sample for inject motion events.
- January 25, 2010 at 10:08 AM
- Gabor Paller said...
"Its a permission issue even if INJECT_EVENT permission is there in Manifest."
That permission has to be applicable to the window server. Granting your application that permission does not help.
- January 25, 2010 at 12:19 PM
- Swapnil said...
Now how to grant permission to the Window Server ?
- January 25, 2010 at 12:33 PM
can we use instrumentation testing on existing android applications like music player, camera and gallery or is it only for applications which we develop

Hi gabor,
i want to automate Phone app (native application) is it possible to automate it using instrumentation ?

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- For a coach already known for his intensely detailed preparation and mental and physical demands on players, Tom Thibodeau sounded the warning bell after his most lopsided loss as Bulls' coach.
"I'm probably most disappointed in myself," Thibodeau said. "My job is to have them ready. We can't come out like that. That's on me. I have to drive harder. I have to get the intensity up. And I will. Trust me on that."
The Kings' 121-79 dismantling of a Bulls team without Derrick Rose, Kirk Hinrich, Taj Gibson and Richard Hamilton served up humiliation on multiple levels.
The Kings, topped by Tyreke Evans' 26 points, led by as many as 45. They scored an opponent-season-high 65 first-half points. They broke out the rarely seen 45-10, first-half run to, well, hide.
"It was embarrassing, man," said Carlos Boozer, who scored a team-high 21 points. "It's just hard to put into words. We have a lot of people out. When you have people out, everyone has to play a little harder and do a little more. We know we're capable of doing that because we've done it before.
"But we'll have a quick exit if we're playing like this in the playoffs."
Indeed, the Bulls are just 7-12 since moving to a season-high 11 games above .500 on Jan. 30. And after clanking their way to 38.6 percent against the Kings, they have shot below 39 percent for four straight games.
The previous worst loss under Thibodeau came on Feb. 7 at Denver, a 32-point drubbing.
"We played poorly. I coached poorly," Thibodeau said. "My job is to have them ready. You go on the road and you have to defend, rebound, take care of the ball, play inside out, share the ball, do your job. But the most important thing is you have to be ready to play. "This is a competition. This isn't a show. You have to compete. You have to play with an edge. You have to go after people."
The Bulls, behind Boozer's strong start, played well in taking a 16-15 lead on a Boozer jumper. Then the wheels fell off.
"We're not competing the way we're supposed to be competing," Joakim Noah said. "We have a lot of guys out. Our margin of error is very small. If we don't go into games with the right mindset, then we have no chance.
"Each and every single one of us has to look in the mirror and say, 'You know what? It starts with me. I have to work harder. I have to come more prepared.' We know that we're capable."
But are they with so many injuries? A tough Golden State team awaits them Friday.
"There are two things you have to have to get intensity," Thibodeau said. "You have to have great concentration and you have to give great effort. When you're lacking in intensity, you have to go back to those two things. You have to ask yourself: Are we as well prepared as we need to be? That's my job. I'm going to make sure that happens."
Consider the Bulls warned.

This protocol is designed to allow the use of 96-well trays
(8x12 microtiter tray format) and multi-channel devices from
the initial inoculation step to the final cycle sequence reaction.
It will yield approximately 200ng of purified plasmid per
ml of culture fluid. When using one of the accompanying
sequencing methods, one cycle sequence reaction will require
160-300ng of template.
1. Streak clone stock to single colony on LB (+antibiotic)
plate. Inoculate 1ml LB (+antibiotic) culture with single
colony, grow overnight at 37°C. Using 3 ul of (overnight growth)
single colony culture fluid, inoculate a single or multiple
96 deep-well blocks containing 1.2-1.6 ml per well of LB media
with appropriate antibiotic. Alternatively, 24 deep-well or
48 deep-well blocks may be used with up to 4.8 or 2.4ml of
media respectively. Cover each block with an AirPore
(Qiagen Inc.) sheet and incubate at 37°C with shaking at 325
RPM for approximately 20 hours.
2. Pellet cells by centrifugation for 20 at 3,200 RPM
in a Sorvall RT7 at 4°C with RTH-250 rotor, ~1700 xg. Decant
and drain pellets. If duplicates are used, transfer culture
fluid from the duplicate block to the first block. Spin again,
decant and drain.
3. Resuspend each pellet in 300ul of ice cold Qiagen buffer
R1 with RNAse A (0.2 mg/ml) and RNAse T1 (100 units/ml). Let
rest for 10 min. on ice to relax pellets before gentle vortexing
or shaking. 1
4. Add 300 ul of Qiagen buffer R2 (lysis buffer) per well.
Seal wells with plastic sealing tape and mix by gentle inversion
5 times. Incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes (most
critical timed step).
5. Add 300 ul of cold Qiagen buffer R3 (neutralization buffer)
per well. Seal wells with plastic sealing tape and mix by
gentle inversion 5 times. Incubate on ice for 5 minutes.
6. Add 50 ul of ProCipitate (LigoChem Inc.) per well.
Invert gently several times during a 5 minute room temperature
incubation. Let stand at room temperature for 1 minute before
transferring to filter plate.
7. Using a wide bore pipette tip, transfer the lysate to a
Qiagen TurboFilter (Qiagen Inc.) or QiaFilter
(Qiagen Inc.) plate positioned over a 96 deep-well collection
block inside a vacuum manifold. Transfer 600 ul at a time,
collecting the top half (with flocculent ppt.) first. Vacuum
filter using approximately 300-500 mm Hg until filtration
is complete, about 5-20 minutes.
8. Remove lysate filtrate collection block from manifold.
Add 2ul of glycogen type II (Sigma Inc.) at 1ug/ul and ice-cold
isopropanol (0.7x volume of filtrate) to each well. Seal with
plastic sealing tape and mix. Incubate for ~60 minutes at
9. Centrifuge for 60 minutes at 4°C at 1900 xg (3400 RPM).
Decant gently. 2
10. Wash pellets with 500 ul of 70% ethanol. Spin for 10 minutes
at 4° C at 1900 xg. Decant block gently and blot dry.
11. Air dry or speed-vac to just dry and resuspend pellets
in 1 mM Tris, pH 8.0. Use 10ul of resuspension buffer per
ml of starting culture fluid.
*Modified, from TIGR protocol Version 052397, Copyright 1997
1Steps 3 through 8 can be carried out using a
robotics system such as the Qiagen
BioRobot 9600. When doing so, R1, R3, and isopropanol are
at ambient temperature and the ProCipitate step is excluded.
2G-force is limited by the centrifuge available. Centrifuges
which allow higher g-force can be used to reduce centrifugation

In case you were wondering why we use British English for our definitions, it's simply because the site is UK-based, and we're all Brits! For words alternative American spellings, we've included these in these in the definitions, so hopefully this is useful to our huge number of much-valued users in the US.
A few of you have got in touch to tell us you can't find definitions when you search for the American English spelling. We have recently made some changes that mean if you search for a US spelling it redirects you to the British English version and the definition. However there do seem to be occassions when this isn't happening - we are working on fixing these, so if you notice any instances when it's not working, please get in touch and let us know.

Main Content
Cup-feeding is a way to provide breast milk or formula to a baby who is unwilling or unable to breastfeed or drink from a bottle. If a mother wants to breastfeed, cup-feeding is also sometimes used as an alternative to bottle-feeding for a baby who needs supplementation for a few days.
To cup-feed your baby, fill a medicine cup to about30 mL (1 fl oz) with breast milk or formula. Make sure your baby is supported in an upright position and is wrapped or swaddled to keep his or her hands from getting in the way and spilling the cup. When you swaddle your baby, keep the blanket loose around the hips and legs. If the legs are wrapped tightly or straight, hip problems may develop. Your baby should also be alert.
You want your baby to slurp or sip the milk. Do not pour the milk into his or her mouth. To do this:
The feeding should last no more than about 30 minutes. Follow your baby's cues about when to stop.
Many babies with special needs can easily learn how to cup-feed. This feeding technique can promote the physical bond between the mother and baby when breastfeeding or bottle-feeding is not possible.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — James Lee DiMaggio killed his close friend and her 8-year-old son on Aug. 4 at his rural house east of San Diego and fled with her 16-year-old daughter, authorities say.
After a massive six-day search that spanned much of the western United States and parts of Canada and Mexico, DiMaggio was killed by FBI agents in the Idaho wilderness. Hannah Anderson was rescued and returned to California.
Jan Caldwell, a spokeswoman for the San Diego County Sheriff's Department, said some questions involving the case may never be answered. Here's what is known, according to authorities and public statements by Hannah.
Q: Why do police believe DiMaggio killed Hannah's mother and brother? And how did he do it?
A: San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore has declined to comment on the motive but an investigator, Capt. Duncan Fraser, has said DiMaggio may have had "an unusual infatuation" with Hannah. A search warrant says DiMaggio tortured and killed 44-year-old Christina Anderson and 8-year-old Ethan Anderson at his home but does not provide details. The warrant says he also shot and killed the family dog. Hannah Anderson said in a posting on a social media site that her mother and brother were tied up in DiMaggio's garage. A crowbar was found near Christina Anderson's body in the garage and handcuff boxes were recovered from DiMaggio's home, which burned after an apparently intentional fire was set. Ethan's charred body was found inside.
Q: Why did Hannah's family go to DiMaggio's house?
A: DiMaggio was like an uncle to the Anderson children and the best friend of their father, Brett Anderson. Hannah said she went with her mother and brother to say goodbye to DiMaggio, who told them he was moving.
"He told us he was losing his house because of money issues so we went up there one last time to support him, and to have fun riding go-karts up there but he tricked us," Anderson wrote on her ask.fm social media account two days after her rescue.
Hannah's grandfather, Christopher Saincome, said DiMaggio told the Andersons he was moving to Texas.
Q: What was the relationship between Hannah and DiMaggio?
A: DiMaggio has been a constant presence in Hannah's life since she was born. He drove her to gymnastics meets and even took her on multi-day trips, most recently to Malibu and Hollywood. Hannah acknowledged being uncomfortable around DiMaggio even before the kidnap ordeal, saying he once told her that he was drawn to her.
"He said it was more like a family crush like he had feelings as in he wanted nothing bad to happen to me," she wrote.
She said she didn't tell her parents because of DiMaggio's close friendship with his father, "and I didn't want to ruin anything between them."
Q: Did Hannah want to run away with DiMaggio? Did she have anything to do with the crimes at his home?
A: Hannah exchanged about 13 phone calls with DiMaggio before she was picked up from cheerleading practice on Aug. 4, according to a search warrant that doesn't indicate the time, duration or content of the conversations. Investigators found letters from Hannah at DiMaggio's home in the rural town of Boulevard; authorities declined to discuss the contents.
Gore has been adamant that Hannah was an unwilling victim from start to finish. At a news conference, he said she was "a victim in every sense of the word."
Hannah said she didn't learn her mother and brother died until she was rescued.
Q: How did DiMaggio treat Hannah while they were on the run?
A: Hannah said she "basically" stayed awake for six straight days, and DiMaggio ignored her requests for food. She couldn't try to escape because DiMaggio had a gun and "threatened to kill me and anyone who tried to help."
Anderson said she was too frightened to ask for help when four horseback riders encountered the pair in the Idaho wilderness.
"I had to act calm I didn't want them to get hurt. I was scared that he would kill them," she wrote.
The riders reported the sightings the next day to the authorities, providing the key break in the search.
Q: What does Hannah plan to do now?
A: Hannah says she plans to return to El Capitan High School in Lakeside, an east San Diego suburb of 54,000 people. The incoming junior has a wide circle of friends, is on the school gymnastics team, and participates in an advanced dance class.
Brett Anderson told at least two people that he plans to move his daughter to his Tennessee home. He says he had been living separately from his wife because he took a job in that state.

Mark Calcavecchia shot an 8-under 64 on Friday at Del Monte to take a two-stroke lead over Tom Pernice Jr. in the Champions Tour's First Tee Open.
Calcavecchia, in his first season on the 50-and-over tour after winning 13 times on the PGA Tour, capped his bogey-free first round with a birdie on the par-5 ninth hole to equal his career low on the senior circuit.
"Overall, I drove it well," said Calcavecchia, the 1989 British Open winner who played Del Monte for the first time since 1982. "I made five birdies within 4 feet."
Pernice, playing his first full season on the tour, birdied five of the first six holes at Pebble Beach, then had 10 straight pars and birdied the 17th en route to a 66.
"I putted nice today," Pernice said. "If you hit your irons well you've got a to score here. I made two nice pars to keep the round going."
Fred Couples, Bob Tway, Tom Kite, Wayne Levi and 2006 winner Scott Simpson opened with 67s at Del Monte, and Chip Beck and Olin Browne had 67s at Pebble Beach -- the site of the final round Sunday.
Two-time defending champion Jeff Sluman had a 68 at Del Monte.
Calcavecchia had four birdies on the front and back nines, but his stellar round wasn't based on memory. Calcavecchia last played Del Monte 28 years ago when the course was used as qualifier for the Hawaiian Open.
"I didn't remember any of the holes, but it's a tricky course," said Calcavecchia, who turned 50 in June. "You can't get it on the wrong side of the hole."
Tom Watson, who will be 61 on Saturday, shot 73 at Del Monte.
The start of the first round at Del Monte was delayed for 45 minutes because of fog.
The seventh annual event, sponsored for the first year by Home Care & Hospice, features 78 Champions Tour players paired with a junior player in a corresponding event. The top 22 pro-junior teams and top 10 amateur teams will advance to the final round.

UnNews:Some guy named Haig dies
This article is part of UnNews, your source for up-to-the-microsecond misinformation.
21 February 2010
SOMEWHERE, the World -- I tuned in late Friday morning to reviledly-conservative cable news channel Faux News, when the scroll reported that somebody by the name of Haig was in critical condition for something or another. They didn't specify, but I believe it may have been incurable old people's disease. They have since announced that Haig has died from whatever condition s/he had.
The only Haig I know of is horror and exploitation cult icon Sid Haig. Haig, 70, has starred in several Jack Hill films such as Spider Baby, The Big Doll House, and Foxy Brown starring Pam Grier. He is perhaps best known for playing Captain Spaulding in Rob Zombie's House of 1,000 Pissed off Daeg Fans and Rob Zombie's Reject. He also appeared in a cameo as the grave keeper in Zombie's brilliant Halloween remake.
His scene went something like this: "Goddamn son of a bitch! Fucking kids! Jesus Christ, they think I have anything better to do in in my time than clean up this shit? God dammit! Fucking little idiots!"
After doing a bit of Googling and whatnot, I didn't have much luck finding out if Sid was, in fact, the Haig in question. A search for "sid haig death" returned no results. I then searched for "captain spaulding death" and was treated to the ending of The Devil's Rejects on YouTube.
Then I did what most horror buffs would do. I checked Bloody-Disgusting, Dread Central, Penny Dreadful, Fangoria, and even Sid Haig's official site. Nothing came up concerning his death. I searched his Internet Movie Database profile and message board, but to no avail; the most recent post dates back to 2009.
Finally I gave up and turned on the TV to every cable news channel I could find -- CNN, Faux News, Fox News, Nick News, MTV News, and even Telemundo and Univision.
Listening to Dee Snider and Debbie Rochon's Fangoria Radio didn't help matters, either. Nobody was even aware of the idea that Sid Haig may, in fact, be dead.
I turned the cable news channels back on, and they talked a little bit about the Haig who had died. Haig was a male. Apperently, he was the Secretary of State under Ronald Reagan. He was also White House Chief of Staff under Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, and a U.S. Army general, whose breakthrough post-Army hit song was entitled "Trousers on the Floor." Haig was a Korea and Vietnam veteran, and 85 years old -- 15 years Spaulding's senior. I knew it wasn't Sid Haig!
My IMDb posting received laughs and posts such as "*beep* you, hater!" and "You've got the wrong Haig." I had been laughed off the internet, and all I wanted to know was which Haig died. I feel so rejected.
I guess I'll never know this Haig guy's name, so just let me know if you happen to find out, which I highly doubt.
Editor's note: It was Alexander Haig, you shit-for-brains fucking moron retarded monkey! Next time, do a little more research.

Martine McCutcheon, star of Love Actually and once billed as once of Britain's most successful soap-to-screen stars, has been declared bankrupt.
The actress petitioned for bankruptcy at Kingston-Upon-Thames County Court under her given name, Martine Kimberley Sherri Ponting.
She will be discharged from bankruptcy on January 2, 2014.
David Standish and Wendy Wardell of KPMG were appointed joint trustees in bankruptcy of Martine McCutcheon by the Secretary of State on January 24.
David Standish, joint trustee and restructuring partner at KPMG, said: "Ms McCutcheon petitioned for her own bankruptcy at Kingston-Upon-Thames County Court. We are now responsible for administering her estate and are in the process of establishing the individual's assets and liabilities; the largest creditor being Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs."
Martine McCutcheon starring alongside Ross Kemp in Eastenders (BBC)
Best known for her role as Tiffany in EastEnders, Ms McCutcheon has also won a Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her performance of Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady in 2002. After leaving EastEnders in the Nineties she launched a successful pop singing career which saw her achieve number one in the charts in five countries with her debut single Perfect Moment.
The actress also published a novel in 2009 titled The Mistress, which debuted in the top ten of bestsellers list.
Recent television work included credits in Midsomer Murders and Spooks.
Her management has been contacted for comment.
Ed Thomas, partner at accountancy firm Mazars, spoke to Credit Today regarding Ms McCutcheon: "Without knowing the background to this matter, one should not point the finger, but generally we are seeing several celebrities failing in their obligation to ensure that their financial affairs are dealt with properly.
"There is no doubt that they pay a lot of money to people who claim to be managing their affairs professionally. But ultimately it has to be the responsibility of the individual to make sure their financial affairs are up to date, particularly their income tax affairs," he said.
"Before HMRC takes action, there will be several warnings and opportunities to settle any liabilities. Therefore, any abrogation by the celebrity of their responsibility to deal with income tax and other debt issues, is no real defence."
Ms McCutcheon is not the first high profile star to be declared bankrupt in recent years.
Westlife star Shane Filan was declared bankrupt just days before the hugely successful Irish group play their farewell show last summer. He suffered losses as a result of the property crash in the country due to the economic problems.
Mother of four, Kerry Katona shot to fame with girl group Atomic Kitten before marrying boy-band member Brian McFadden.
Her stock rose higher after winning I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here. But, despite this fame and accompanying fortune, she was made bankrupt by the High Court after failing to deliver the final £82,000 of a £417,000 tax bill.

More than a decade has elapsed since TPS was passed. We now look for a clearer process toward permanent legal status with a path to U.S. Citizenship. Political change is so frequent, and there is always a risk that TPS might end. It is very important to act and stay united to win permanent legalization.

Hopefully this isn't wishful thinking, but strong 2012 U.S. auto sales seem to indicate once and for all that consumer credit won't be a drag on another year of improving sales in 2013.
This may be oversimplifying the timing, but roughly speaking credit was harder to get in 2009 and 2010, even for some prime-risk borrowers. In 2011, prime-risk credit came back and subprime began to improve. In 2012 subprime came back, and today there are few worries about credit availability, except maybe for the riskiest subprime customers.
"I do think it's a little bit in the rearview mirror. People who need an auto loan at this point, they're all able to get one," said Ellen Hughes-Cromwick, Ford Motor Co. chief economist, in a conference call for analysts and media last week. )
"I really don't see automotive credit contracting at this juncture," she said.
Can somebody please knock on wood?

Preview Ciara's 'Got Me Good' Video
'Got Me Good' isn't just a Cody Simpson single. It's also a Ciara single! Her version is decidedly more of a club banger style than his chill track, but both have their charms. Ciara previewed 30 seconds of the video, and she looks hotter than a steaming cup of lava.
The singer is wearing all white and dancing in the desert. The setting reminds us of the quintessential road trip scenery in a movie. She looks like a sun-kissed hottie, with her wild, bedhead, ombre hair. She is being shadowed by a male dancer, dressed in all black, who engages in naughty bumping and grinding with the singer. Mmm hmm. The getting sure is good between these two, as they have steam-up-the-screen chemistry.
Judging by this ultra sexified half-minute preview and teaser, we are in for a hot, hot, HOT video from Ciara. The full-length is scheduled to premiere on Oct. 25, which is Ciara's 27th birthday. How generous of her. She gives us a sexy gift on her birthday. We love selfless pop stars.
'Got Me Good' appears on her fifth studio album 'One Woman Army.'
While on the set of the video, the singer told MTV that her new album is "not about being over-independent, but it does represent my independence as a woman and it represents my strength. It represents where I stand with love. It represents what I want out of life as a woman. It's all of that in one and more."
Amen, sister! Ciara is woman. Hear hear roar.

We're selective so our meat is fully traceable and of the highest quality.
We know it takes time and skill to develop superb flavour.
We take the traditional art of cutting steaks seriously.
We train our chefs to expertly chargrill your steak.
Established in 1965 as a Guild of the Cookery and Food Association, the Craft Guild of Chefs has developed into the leading Chefs' Association in the UK, with many members worldwide.
Members come from all aspects of the foodservice and hospitality sectors, working in a wide variety of positions from students and trainees to top management. Their aim is to increase standards of professional cooking through the combination of greater awareness, education and training.
"We are excited to be working with Miller & Carter on their exceptional steak range. After having the chance to explore every aspect of these first-class steaks, from the way their cattle are reared, to how the steaks are butchered, aged and cooked to perfection, we have awarded them our 'Masters in Steak' accreditation.
The steps they take is a testament to their passion and devotion for offering guest an indulgent steak experience."
