CFDA Number: 84.038
Program Type: Formula Grants, Loans
Also Known As: Formerly National Defense Student Loans, National Direct Student Loan, and Perkins Loan Program
The Federal Perkins Loan Program provides lowinterest loans to help needy students finance the costs of postsecondary education. Students attending any one of approximately 1,700 participating postsecondary institutions can obtain Perkins loans from the school.
The school's revolving Perkins loan fund is replenished by ongoing activities, such as collections by the school on outstanding Perkins loans made by the school and reimbursements from the Department for the cost of certain statutory loan cancellation provisions.
Students must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as part of the application process for a Perkins Loan. The FAFSA can be completed on the Web at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov. For more information on the student aid award process, see the Federal Pell Grant Program (# 84.063, also under topical heading Federal Student Aid).
Students also will need to complete a Perkins promissory note in order to receive a loan.
Perkins borrowers are eligible for loan cancellation for teacher service at low-income schools and under certain other circumstances specified in the law (HEA). Students may defer repayment of the loan while enrolled (at least half-time) at a postsecondary school. A borrower who has difficulty repaying a Perkins Loan should contact the school where he or she received the loan to find out if he or she is eligible for a deferment or forbearance based on economic hardship or other circumstances.

Encore: the 1997 Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival CD
When we refer to any recording as "sounding natural," we are, of course, employing an oxymoron. There's nothing about the process that is "natural"—except, perhaps, the use of a good-sounding venue and the choice of sympathetic musicians. Microphones don't "hear" music in the same way that ears do, and, far from being neutral, are actually chosen for their sound.
For instance, if one is recording violins, the polar distribution of radiated power along the axis of the violins' top plates is such that it will overwhelm any other sounds the microphones are intended to record—so one is forced to record from any position but one along that axis. Most engineers choose to raise their microphones well above it, since that solves other problems relating to the way microphones perceive the instruments on a stage.
To cite another example: Simply by using spaced omnidirectional microphones, an engineer can create an illusion of spaciousness that may not truly exist in the venue. The distance between the microphones affects lateral time cues on the recording; the perception of spaciousness can be profoundly influenced simply by varying that spacing.
So how can any recording pretend to an "absolute" sound when every choice made by the engineer can influence the final product? That is the dilemma facing anyone attempting to preserve a faithful record of the original event. The art (as opposed to the craft) of recording lies in making choices that produce the flavor of veracity, even while exploiting the reality-altering properties of the tools employed.
John Atkinson and I entered Santa Fe's St. Francis Auditorium on July 18, 1997, intending to record several performances over the course of the next two weeks in much the same way as we had in 1995 and 1996 (footnote 1). That is to say, we arrived full of the moral righteousness in simply recording the event that only the true believer can muster. We hung the four B&K microphones in the locations that past experience had told us worked well, and set about running cables, tapping power, and adjusting microphone preamps, D/A converters, and the ubiquitous Nagra-D four-channel digital recorder.
There was just one problem. When we began recording the rehearsal for the Saturday, July 19th program, we noticed that the sound was drier and far less rich than the sound we had recorded in the years before. We closely inspected our setup, which seemed to be functioning perfectly, then cast our eyes about in search of the culprit. JA determined that the acoustic shell, designed to throw the sound toward the audience, was much closer to the musicians this year. In 1995 and 1996, for instance, it had been halfway between the musicians and the rear of the stage. This year it was so close to them they could reach out and touch it.
Footnote 1: Stereophile has released two other CDs of works recorded in concert at the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival. Festival (STPH007-2) was recorded in 1995 and features the original chamber version of Copland's Appalachian Spring, Milhaud's jazz-flavored La création du monde, and the 1995 Festival premiere, Tomiko Kohjiba's The Transmigration of the Soul. Serenade (STPH009-2) was recorded in 1995 and 1996 and features Mozart's Flute Quartet in D (K.285), the Brahms Horn Trio in E-Flat, and Dvorák's Serenade in D Minor for Winds & Strings. To obtain Festival, Serenade, Encore, or any of the other eleven Stereophile recordings, see the "Recordings" page on this website.

So many movie promo posters fall flat (or rely too much on the contrasting orange and blue), but this unused promo poster for The Incredibles captures the action-packed scale of Pixar's film. It was hand painted by Robert McGinnis, the artist who painted the iconic movie posters for Breakfast at Tiffany's, Barbarella, and many of the James Bond movies. If only movie marketing included more posters like this.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Sunday that Tehran would not negotiate about its disputed nuclear program under pressure, but would talk to its adversaries if they stopped "pointing the gun".
In a speech to mark the 34th anniversary of the Islamic revolution, Ahmadinejad struck a more conciliatory tone than Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who on February 7 rebuffed a US call for direct negotiations on disputes between the two countries.
Ahmadinejad does not have the authority to authorise negotiations over the nuclear program, which lies with Khamenei. "You cannot point a gun at the Iranian nation and then expect them to have negotiations with you," Ahmadinejad said, speaking to a crowd gathered in Tehran's Azadi (Freedom) Square.
His speech, which partly dealt with Iran's policy towards its 'enemies', was carried live on Iranian state television.
"Talks should not be used as a lever to impose one's opinions.... If you stop pointing the gun at the Iranian nation, I will negotiate (with you) myself," he added.
The US and some of its allies suspect Iran may be trying to develop atomic weapons capability under the cover of a civilian nuclear energy programme, a charge Iran has denied.
Many believe no nuclear deal is possible without a US-Iranian thaw, requiring direct talks addressing myriad sources of mutual mistrust and hostility lingering since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution and the hostage crisis at the US embassy in Tehran.
On the nuclear dispute, Iran has agreed to a new round of talks with world powers in Kazakhstan on February 26.
Tehran is seeking the lifting of sanctions that have slashed oil exports and helped reduce the value of the Iranian rial by about half in the last year, contributing to higher inflation and weakened purchasing power for ordinary Iranians.
Iranians bearing banners saying "Down With USA" and "We are standing until the end" gathered at state-organised mass demonstrations in the capital Tehran and other major cities to mark the anniversary of the ousting of a Western-friendly monarchy in favour of clerical leadership.
Ahmadinejad did not address the specifics of Iran's nuclear program, or of the planned talks, in his speech on Sunday. He said that Iran would counter the sanctions by increasing its non-oil exports and weaning itself off crude revenues.
"Today the enemies are trying their utmost to put pressure on the Iranian nation to stop its progress but they will not succeed," he said.
Last week, the US implemented a measure meant to "lock up" Iranian oil revenues by requiring them to be credited to accounts in countries that buy Iranian crude.

Hey Guys
Been testing a CT60 and CT63e. Both cards work well, ran them as low as 50mHZ to 106mHz.
No problems in 060 mode or 030 mode.
1. With a Supervidel installed, neither card will boot. The monitor stays on, I think the SV is outputting maybe sync to keep the monitor going to the no connection icon. Not even getting to the loading TOS into SD RAM message. This issue isn't auto folder dependent.
2. After many resets, I've gotten two CT splash screens. Letting it boot further to the auto folder with the SV driver installed, it crashes spewing out a ton of stuff.
3. CT60 has the latest flash.
4. The next time splash screen came up, let it load the SDRAM, and stopped boot using Patrice Mandarin's version setup feature of 1.03c boot.
5. I thought having SV output to that screen, I could connect with the Xylinix box via USB, but auto detect cable didn't come up for the SV XC3S2000. However, the two Xylinix chips on the CT could be read. Tried to manually enter the XC3S, iMpact didn't like that. I've tried a few different versions of iMpact, 14.3 flashed the CT60 fine. Went to 14.4 for the XC3S.
Basically, 99% of reset's, the CT's are not getting even to the splash screen, IDE doesn't spin up. (with SV installed).
Would like to flash the SV using the Xylinx and V11 of softs, looks like that just isn't going to happen with the current set up.
Is there anyway to flash the SV off the CT6X's on the bench? What's a good pin to put power too. 5V or 3.3V?
Don't think I missed anything, only reason I can come up with is the flash isn't compatible with the CT63e or CT60 V7 boot or initialization.
Thanks in advance

China's Stock Market: Of Bears and Rabbits
China's stock market regulator says he has confidence in the market.
He seems to be in the minority.
The stock market's key barometer – the Shanghai Composite average -- closed below the key 2,000 level on Tuesday and then kept heading south. It dropped to a fresh nearly four-year low on Wednesday, its third straight lower close.
On Thursday the market was up a tepid 0.1% midsession before reverting to the norm and ending down 0.5%, hitting yet another nearly four-year low.
Top stock regulator Guo Shuqing knows a hot potato when he sees one. Invited to address a financial gathering in Beijing, he kept his prepared remarks to other topics, such as the recent Communist Party congress and its implications. He tried to make a quick getaway – a bit like a lucky trader with some profits still on the table and ready for the taking.
But the waiting press wasn't giving up so easily. They peppered him with questions about what's in store for the market and whether there are plans to try to turn things around.
"All I will say about the market is I have confidence in it," he told a gaggle of disappointed reporters.
The party congress – which comes but once every five years -- may have something to do with the market's current malaise. Some investors were hoping for announcements of government support for the market, buying ahead of the meeting and then planning to sell into strength. Unfortunately, there wasn't much strength to sell into.
Investors may also be worried about that small matter of the U.S. fiscal cliff. A tanking of the U.S. economy would hardly help China's exporters.
The market appears to be headed for its third straight year of losses – not just a little bit of market correction but big dollops of downside direction. The Shanghai index is lagging by roughly 10% so far this year after losing 22% last year and 14% in 2010.
The average daily turnover on China's stock markets has been 68.4 billion yuan ($11 billion) over the first three sessions of this week, below the average of 101.4 billion yuan in October, which was the lowest month so far this year.
It is more than a little bit odd that the market is shrugging off indications that the Chinese economy may be getting in gear again. There have been positive signs from industrial output and profits, while the old threat of inflation seems tamed for now. Even exports have started to look a bit stronger.
For one, the problem is liquidity. Investors have been hoping to see an interest-rate cut or an easing of bank reserve requirements, a move that would let them lend more of their deposits.
There have been three cuts in the reserve requirement over the past 12 months, but the last one was in May. There were two interest rate cuts -- in June and then in July -- but nothing since.
Investors are reluctant to buy as they haven't seen any signal of a turnaround in the market.
"Local retail investors have lost faith on the stock market over the past three years. How can we expect investors to rush into a market where all expectations for a bottom, say the 3000 and the 2000 level, have proven to be wrong?" said Amy Lin, analyst at Capital Securities.
"The market is likely to stay weak until the government launches significant market-friendly measures, such as more stock buybacks of listed companies and another cut in banks' reserve requirement ratio," she said
Mr. Guo, who is widely considered one of the leading candidates to be the next central bank governor, has won a reputation as a reformer who does have some big ideas for the market. He has pushed for strengthened market regulation while trying to encourage a bigger role for long-term investors – including foreign institutions.
But so far the bears seem to be in charge. If Mr. Guo has some rabbits to pull out of his hat, so far he's not telling.

That's what attorney Kenneth Feinberg, special master of the compensation fund for those affected by the BP oil spill, is doing as he begins outreach to affected communities. And while you may think he's got $20 billion worth of appeal for his audiences, these public appearances are drawing skepticism, anger and hurt feelings from the oil spill, feelings he needs to account for in engaging his listeners. Start watching him, speakers. In this New York Times article, this Diane Rehm Show interview, and his other numerous public appearances to start outreach for the BP compensation fund, Feinberg demonstrates these lessons you'd do well to follow if you're facing an audience that's angry, uncertain or just on the other side of your viewpoint:
- Acknowledge the realities of your audience members: Many would-be claimants run all-cash businesses, so Feinberg offers them options for proving their cases. From the Times article: "Do you have a profit and loss statement? Do you have a checkbook? Check stubs?" he said. "No? Well, then, tell the captain of the boat, or your priest, to vouch for you." Instead of leaving that question open to speculation, he addresses it up front, taking some of the tension off the table, and suggesting real-life options that let the audience know he gets their situations.
- At the same time, keep to your boundaries: Feinberg uses "I" statements to maintain his boundaries, instead of arguing back with "you think this" or "you think that." Angry Gulf residents who want to make the point that there'll be damage for years to come sometimes ask Feinberg whether he'll eat the local shrimp or crab. He's careful to say "I don't know," then answer the underlying question of how claims in the future will be handled when the consequences can't be determined today. When he talks about needing documentation, he often says, "I have to have something to back up what you're saying," couching it in terms of his responsibility.
- Don't be afraid to have an opinion--but show that you understand not everyone shares it. Feinberg tells audiences he thinks they'd be crazy not to apply--but tells them not to do so if they think they can get a better deal. When that comes up, he usually underscores his determination to make the fund fair and the best deal available, without attempting to change the naysayers' minds.
- Don't underestimate how humor can level out tension: Even when posing for a photo with audience members, Feinberg says, "Everybody file a claim?" instead of "cheese." And he shows a gentle humor, poking fund at the process where he can without deprecating its credibility.

Here you can see a detailed look at the forecast for the next 48 hours. Note that the base for this is our Meteogram product, which shows a good average forecast for Rock Creek Knolls (Montgomery County, Maryland, United States).
However, you can also look at our compact prediction based on any other model that forecasts for your chosen location.
The following models are available for Rock Creek Knolls:
ECMWF 6z/18z (3 days), ECMWF IFS HRES (5 days), GFS (5 days), GEM (5 days), ACCESS-G (5 days), ICON (5 days), NORWAY (5 days), DWD MOSMIX (5 days), Serbian MOS (5 days)
This plot displays the 14 day temperature forecast for your selected location, Rock Creek Knolls.
The red numbers show the expected high temperature for a given day, while the blue numbers show the expected low temperature. Because forecast uncertainty increases with time, we also display the range of possible high/low temperature outcomes, shown as the shaded red/blue regions. The actual high/low temp could fall anywhere in that shaded region, and the larger the shaded regions are, the higher the forecast uncertainty is.
Current weather - Here we've put together a glance at all the most important information about the current weather in Rock Creek Knolls (Montgomery County, Maryland, United States). You can see with the radar HD if precipitation is falling at the moment, or headed towards Rock Creek Knolls soon. You can also see where there are thunderstorms currently ongoing, as well as where thunderstorms have occurred in recent weeks and months with our lightning analysis tool. Our HD satellite images of Rock Creek Knolls will show you whether there's sunshine currently in the area, or if clouds are making for a more gloomy day. Finally, current observations will tell you what current temperatures look like around Rock Creek Knolls at the moment, as well as if it's humid and/or windy.

For the short term, we have data based on a single weather model that is known to deliver the best forecast for Rock Creek Knolls. For the longer term, we have forecasts for the next two weeks based on an analysis of many different possible forecast outcomes that will give you a sense of not just what's most likely, but how the forecast could change in future updates as we get closer to any given date. If the range of possible outcomes is narrow, you can have high confidence in the forecast. If the range is wide, you know there's more uncertainty, and to not give too much credence to any one possible forecast outcome. We also have other products such as Meteograms and Forecast XL elsewhere on our site to give you additional options for figuring out the forecast for Rock Creek Knolls.

I'm not completely finished with our nursery yet, but I wanted to share one of my most exciting projects with you guys: this DIY dresser!
So, let me make this fully clear: I do not consider myself a crafting wizard. Most DIY projects are way too tricky and time-consuming for me, and I tend to generally avoid them. But this one is just so easy, I felt like it would be cruel if I didn't share it!
(Also, I have a secret weapon: my father in law is incredibly handy, and lives 20 minutes away, which is pretty much the best thing that has ever happened to me. It means that when I start being all "I wonder if it's safe to inhale spray paint at four months pregnant," my awesome mother and father in law swoop in and remove the paint can from my general proximity ASAP!)
But even without handy in-laws, this is one you guys can attempt at home! I love IKEA furniture — once it's constructed, don't get me started on the actual assembly process — but sometimes it tends to be a little bit… plain. It's pretty and it's well-built, but their designs are sometimes just too simple for my taste.
Which means that it's time to dress them up!
For this project, you need:
A set over Overlays. I bought the Anne set for the Hemnes dresser, which is available here.
The IKEA Hemnes dresser ($299, available here)
Liquid Nails
Double-Side Mounting Tape, to use while you're spray painting the Overlays
Spray Paint
Dresser Knobs (I found mine on eBay here)
My step-by-step photos are below, but I also have a few tips you should know about!
First, when you spray paint the Overlays, use the mounting tape (make sure it's the removeable kind) to elevate them slightly from whatever they're resting on (we used cardboard). That way, you can spray paint the sides of the overlays more easily, and they won't stick to the backdrop.
Also, when you're attaching the Overlays to the drawers, use only a small amount of Liquid Nails, because you don't want to get any on the rest of the dresser.
Other than that, this is a pretty quick, easy DIY project that produces an amazing, gorgeous result!

White hell: Drivers spend night sleeping in their cars as coldest December on record shuts roads and airports
(The Daily Mail)
A blast of harsh winter weather socked Europe Saturday morning, causing travel chaos and sending temperatures into a deep-freeze.
From Northern Ireland to Bulgaria, blizzard conditions left airports with heavy delays or shut them entirely on Friday, and many delays and cancellations continued into Saturday.
Snow, snow and more snow: Germany, along with much of the rest of Europe, continues to struggle under heavy snowfalls in what appears to be the early onset of deepest winter.
(Der Spiegel)
And it looks like the cold weather is going to prevail this winter also in the US, Russia and China. This is not good news for the global warming alarmists:
And the warmists just don't get it. Or perhaps they do, which could explain the vicious edge to their attacks. Their mantras are not going to survive this winter, and the politicians who continue to promote this lunacy are going to be howled down, ridiculed and rejected. They haven't realised it yet, but this while stuff falling from the skies is a powerful game-changer, a political event of considerable magnitude.
(Richard North, EU Referendum)

Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 8 diseños de 7 diseñadores freelance.
Hi, we're looking to use four quotes to create a testimonials campaign for our upcoming Influence Forum event and need a flash campaign 871 by 193 pixels
Influence Forum 2007
Desired Color Scheme:
Should fit with current colour scheme of influenceforum.com
Desired Style:
Should fit with rest of site
Accepted File Formats:
Hi this will go at the top of our influenceforum.com website below the horizontal nav bar. It should be 871 by about 193 pixels.
We're just looking to pull out some of our testimonial quotes and give them more prominence via a flash campaign. We still have some old quotes running on the website http://www.mediaconnect.biz which you can use to get a basic idea of what we want.
I think this time I'd rather use some graphics rather than people's faces. Below is the quotes I'd like to use and I've given some ideas for graphics you might incorporate
Maybe an intro screen?
SCREEN 1: I'm thinking a desert island graphic
In market research we refer to the desert island question - if you only had one what would it be?. Influence is like that, if there's one thing you are going to do in terms of media relations that should be it.
Rob ONeill, Editor, Computerworld New Zealand
SCREEN 2: I'm thinkign dollar sign graphic
Influence is a wonderful opportunity to educate and network with the leading journalists in Australia and New Zealand. It is great that the majority of journalists go to be educated and are willing to learn. It really helps to build our profile in a cost effective manor.
Emma Keen, VeriSign
SCREEN 3: I'm thinking a globe, preferrably one that stops on Australia and
There is nothing else like it in the world today -- if you want access to the leading IT Journalists in Australia, to get your message across or to find out how well your message has been received, Influence is the event where it happens.
Ashton Mills, Freelance Journalist
SCREEN 4: I'm thinking speech bubbles
Highly valuable! Influence 2006 is one of the few public forums where IT journalists, analysts and vendors can candidly express, discuss and challenge each other's views.
Robin Simpson, Gartner
SCREEN 5: Should use the Influence logo

my $det1 = $A->det; # determinant my $det2 = abs $A; # determinant my $inv = $A->inverse; my @eigs = $A->eigenvalues; my ($eigenvalues, $eigenvectors) = $matrix->eigenpair; my ($eig1,$eig2) = @$eigenvalues; my ($u,$v) = @$eigenvectors;Compare this new script for calculating eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a nonsymmetric matrix to the old version. Yes, quite an improvement and quite pleasing to the eye now. Note that $A->eigenvalues; returns a list of Math::Complex objects because in general the eigenvalues of a real matrix can be complex. Only if your matrix is symmetric are you guaranteed real eigenvalues.

Hulk forgot umbrella. Hulk use leaf instead. Cap give Hulk shield. Hulk like little Cap man. Artist Vahnya (known as Samoubica on deviantART) injects some unexpected Avengers adorableness into our weekend with Hulk and Captain America taking over this scene from My Neighbor Totoro.
Incidentally, reddit currently has a thread running about recasting the Hulk as the main character in your favorite movie. The best idea so far: Twelve Angry Hulks.
