A video detailing the alleged sexist and racist bullying experienced by junior doctors in South Africa, produced by Yumna Moosa has been watched more than 100 000 times to date.
In the video Moosa says she had to speak up about the abuse and harassment she suffered in the hands of her supervisor "an award winning medical lecturer" after the hospital management said there was nothing wrong with his behaviour.
She the recorded a video which she posted on YouTube.
His comments were sexist, racist, Islamophobic but it was anything to get our attention. From his explanation it was to motivate us to become better doctors, it was well intentions.— Yumna Moosa, Junior doctor
Moosa says when she spoke to other compassionate, kind senior doctors about the bad treatment they would say "its just a small time, she should suck it up and get through it". It is seen as an initiation period.
She says it is not appropriate that junior doctors are sometimes called stupid, incompetent and worthless when they make mistakes.
Moosa says speaking up about the treatment of doctors has damaged her career because it is not easy to speak up and go back to work. She quit her medical career and is now doing a PhD in Bioinformatics.
Watch Yumna's video below:
After the interview aired on CapeTalk, a number of listeners called in questioning Moosa's fitness as a medical practitioner. They argue that she is using these allegations to cover up her incompetence.
Despite these views, many junior doctors have come out in full support of the claims she has made about conditions young doctors face.
Listen to the full conversation with Yumna Moosa below, as well as the calls from listeners:

» 'What if Microsoft threw an iPad Office party, and no one came?'
Gregg Keizer writing for Computerworld:
…is there a chance that when Microsoft launches Office for the iPad, it will get a big yawn rather than pull in big bucks?
Some analysts think so.
I said this over a year ago and with the passage of time the continued success of the iPad and failure of the Surface only serve to support the argument.

Scientists have been left mystified after the body of a creature resembling a dinosaur was discovered with flesh still on its bones.
The partially-preserved corpse was discovered by an electrician cleaning out a sub-station that had been left untouched for 35 years in Jaspur, a small city in Uttarakhand, India.
It resembles a small dinosaur, but since flightless dinosaurs have been extinct for 65 million years, scientists have struggled to identify it. read more

The grand prize is greater than Bravo's "Top Chef," but less than "Survivor" or "Big Brother." It's a competition for world's largest prize awarded for the creation of art, but it's not on television, and it doesn't take place in New York, London or Los Angeles.
It is ArtPrize, and it opened in Grand Rapids at 6 this morning.
Through Oct. 10, 1,713 artists from 21 countries and 44 states will be exhibiting their creations in 192 venues within a three-square mile area in downtown Grand Rapids and competing for $449,00 worth of cash awards.
This is the second year of ArtPrize, an event founded by social entrepreneur Rick DeVos. The ArtPrize organization's role is to promote and maintain databases of artists and venues, so that those groups can find each other.
Ginny Seyferth, ArtPrize media relations representative, sums up the simplicity of the structure of ArtPrize: "ArtPrize sets up the opportunity for artist and venue to meet and then it's like a dating game, and then the entrepreneurship of the community and the artists takes over, and the public gets to weigh in with their opinion throughout all of this."
The competition is more than a spectator sport, as the audience is intimately involved in not just choosing the winners, but in the entire experience. Every visitor has the opportunity to vote for the winning pieces and to share his or her opinions.
"It is a today's-world conversation about art. You and I might meet on the street and talk about it, it might mean we're on Facebook talking about it, it might mean I'm texting you about it," Seyferth says.
One thing that is always a challenge for artists is exposure, and particularly exposure
outside of local art circles. More important that the cash prizes for
many artists are the exposure opportunities that ArtPrize provides, not
just to the public but within the art community. Among the 200,000
visitors to last year's event were representatives from galleries and
museums such as the Whitney Museum and the Kennedy Center.
exposure and the opportunity to take part in such an exciting event
within an hour's drive were two of the strongest motivators that drew
over two dozen Lansing area artists to participate in the event. From
Williamston to Eagle, St. Johns to Holt, local artists involved in the
event will reflect the diversity of the arts and artists in Lansing.
Among those are:
Eric Staib, "These Do!": Staib,
a St. Johns resident, is an art teacher at Kinawa Middle School and a
recipient of the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Power of Art E d u c a t
o r s award. He has tapped into his experiences with dyslexia to create
a dynamic and distinctive personal style and themes that he hopes will
provide a positive example to students who struggle with learning
He also hopes his
politically ambiguous painting, a large painting that features the
colors of an American flag sagging downward, will provoke dialogue. The
audience will have an opportunity to leave written feedback around the
piece, explaining why they think "These Do!"— as in, why these colors do
"I was scared
about Grand Rapids; they're pretty conservative, I wondered how they're
going to take this. But it's been a good response."
solicited several hundred comments on the work before installing it,
some of which will be included as part of the installation. (Showing at
Bohemia Too, 10 Weston St. SE.)
Steve Baibak,"Mastodon Vanitas":
is Baibak's second year participating in ArtPrize. Last year he was
part of the MSU collective's exhibit, but this year he steps out on his
own with a large outdoor sculpture called "Mastodon Vanitas." The
sculpture is a totem of items which all reflect themes of mortality: A
stopped clock serves as the base, upon which rests a mastodon skull,
capped by a chrome orb in which the viewer can see his or her own

yard. Then, in 2009, "there was a story about people in Portland, Mich.,
who found a skeleton of a mastodon in their yard — what an outstanding
thing to happen," he explains. The idea of something ancient and
timeless being found close to home struck a chord. "The whole piece is
about mortality and human existence. It's inevitable, the end will be
Baibak had
designed the piece for indoor display, but when Grand Valley State
University approached him about displaying it outdoors at its downtown
campus for ArtPrize, he added a solarpowered light to illuminate the
clock, and cast a concrete base. (Showing outside Steelcase Hall at
Grand Valley State University's downtown campus.)
Benjamin Clore, "Reconstruction":
A Michigan State MFA
alum and art instructor at Delta College, Benjamin Clore is
participating in ArtPrize for a second time. His work, entitled
"Reconstruction," is a large installation that will be featured on the
Blue Bridge, which stretches over the Grand River in the middle of the
downtown. "It's the oldest railroad bridge in Grand Rapids. We wanted to do
something that relates to that history," Clore says. He designed an
abstracted railroad car that will sit on the bridge, and will feature
seating and artwork done in the style of urban graffiti often found on
railroad cars.
The work is a collaborative effort. Clore
designed the piece, but then tapped into local expertise to fabricate
the work, including an engineer, the local historical society, a
concrete fabricator, and others. "With the economy being so bad, I
wanted to use as much local industry as possible."
the piece is being built on-site, it has already gotten the attention
of the community. Clore tells about some curious kids who asked the
contractor if he was building a bridge on the bridge. He laughed and
gave a vague answer. Hours later, the kids returned with a small bridge
they built, and asked if it could be placed on the site to create "a
bridge on the bridge on the bridge." Who says kids can't grasp abstract
ideas? (Showing on the Blue Bridge, between Fulton and Pearl Streets.)
Sally Martin Stewart, "Untitled":
Williamston artist
Stewart is participating in ArtPrize for the first time. Her goal was to
find a venue whose mission matched the theme of her work.
Her installation is a
series of gold-leaf plaster casts of breasts, which will hang, cup-like.
Stewart's "breast nests" will be at the Annie R Studio, which is
hosting an exhibit on behalf of the Ella Bullis Foundation to raise
awareness of pregnancy, premature birth and neonatal care.
"It's been an interesting process. It was a lot more work than I thought it would be," Stewart noted.
In what way, considering that the process seems simple: artist and venue match up, artist hangs work, public views work?

loses the words to capture the feeling. "I just couldn't believe it.
It's exciting to be a part of that." (Showing at Annie R Studio, 14
Weston St. SE.)
Michelle Word, "Ovate":
Like Clore,
Michelle Word is an MSU alumni and second-time ArtPrizer. She teaches at
MSU, and in addition to helping to coordinate Clore's piece on behalf
of MSU, Word is also exhibiting.
Her work, "Ovate," is a
mixed media/ found object piece, which will be featured at the Women's
City Club. Doing doubleduty has forced Word to change how she works.

Bashy- The Chupa Chups MixtapeMarch 25th, 2007
After a very long break, Bashy's finally back with the follow up to his popular debut CD 'Your Mum Vol.1', but was it worth the wait? Well, kinda. There's entertaining verses, a nice selection of beats and some enjoyable concepts. The only trouble is, hosted by Masterstepz across twenty-nine tracks, it drags quite a bit. One thing that it has got going for it is the amount of tunes that are actually about something. There's very little focus on typical aggressive grime attitude, and a lot more concentration on writing around a sustained idea. Guests include Scorcher, Big Narstie, Wretch 32 and Loick, whilst DaVinche, Low Deep and others contribute beats. The Chupa Chups theme is quite sweet, and it's good to hear Bashy actually back on the mic. The real test now is how long it'll take him to release something else, and if he'll be brave enough to make that a full album.

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a serious form of peripheral arterial disease, or PAD. In the most advanced cases of PAD, the blockages in your leg vessels may become so severe that almost no blood can make it to your feet and the tissue becomes starved of oxygen. This condition is known as critical limb ischemia (CLI).
You may feel severe foot pain, even at rest, and ulcers may form on your legs and feet. In severe cases, tissue can die, causing gangrene. If you have advanced diabetes or kidney disease, you are at particularly high risk of developing CLI.
If CLI is not treated promptly, the symptoms can progress quickly to the point where you may need to have your leg amputated just above or below the knee.
The goal of treatment is to relieve your pain and allow ulcerations and wounds to heal. In the case of gangrene, the goal is to remove the dead tissue with subsequent healing of the underlying tissue. Treatment requires aggressive revascularization of blocked arteries as with peripheral artery disease. However, because blockages are so advanced in CLI, more advanced techniques are often required.
CLI is a serious, complex disease that requires a multidisciplinary approach. At South Florida Vascular Associates we work closely with your primary care physician, wound care physician, and other specialty physicians to provide the comprehensive care needed to treat CLI effectively and prevent major amputation.
South Florida Vascular Associates looks forward to showing you the difference we can make in your treatment experience and vascular condition. Call (954) 725-4141 to schedule a convenient appointment today or use our online appointment request form.

Happy May Day!
And speaking of greetings: Steve Jackson of Orlando began renting out greeting cards about five months ago and has built up a nice little business.
Happy May Day!
And speaking of greetings: Steve Jackson of Orlando began renting out greeting cards about five months ago and has built up a nice little business.
Renting greeting cards? Well, they're somewhat bigger than your average card: They are 8 feet high and 4 feet wide.
Big Guys. That's what Jackson calls his original, colorful, poster-like cards. He has only seven of them at present, but each is painted with different cartoons or caricatures, and each has a space where metallic letters may be hung for ''Happy Birthday'' or other personal messages. The cards stand on easel-like frames.
''What we do,'' said Jackson, 35, ''is slide in somewhere between 4 a.m. and 6 a.m. to plant the card in the customer's yard or wherever they want it. Oh, the impact is great. Then we slide in about dusk and remove it.''
He charges $30 for the service.
Jackson has been a traveling salesman and a waiter. He's majoring now in education at the University of Central Florida, and credits Shari, his wife of five years, with stabilizing his life.
''I was young and crazy before,'' he said. ''I guess I'm a late bloomer, going to college now and all this. Shari's been fantastic, my steady rudder.'' Jackson said his plan of hiring high schoolers to do his artwork proved too slow and costly, so he shopped around at about a dozen area sign shops before settling on Accurate Sign & Design in Orlando and the artistry of Harold Borten.
''Harold is an older man who worked for years with a big company up North,'' Jackson said. ''The minute I saw his work, his characters, I knew this was it.''
Jackson, a big guy himself (6-foot-3, 230 pounds), may be contacted about Big Guys at (305) 282-5375.
''I'm starting small,'' he said, ''but doing real good. And that's gratifying. Every penny I have in the world is tied up in this.''
Three-dot data: Andrew H. Hines Jr., chairman of the board and president of Florida Progress Corp., parent company of Florida Power, was named recently as chairman of the board of trustees of Rollins College. . . .
The Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America is celebrating its 48th birthday this month. Ken Bragg, speaking for the Orlando Chapter, its award-winning chorus and quartets, invites new members to their weekly melodious meetings at 813 Montana Ave., Tuesdays at 8 p.m. The information number: (305) 894-4956. . . .
Roxine S. Cutright of Orlando has won the national Elderhostel Award for 1986 from the American Association of Retired Persons for her volunteer work, in particular at Loch Haven Art Center and Leu Gardens. . . .
Saturday Specials (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.): Spring Bazaar at Christ the King Episcopal Church, 26 Willow Drive in Azalea Park; and Fun Day and Flea Market at Magnolia School for mentally handicapped students, 1900 Matterhorne Road in Orlando.
Sour root stock: May Day! May Day! Cathy Young of Altamonte Springs, who'd been hoping to deliver her fifth son and 10th child on Easter Sunday, drove herself hastily to Orlando General Hospital on April 24 and gave birth a short time later to a healthy Steven James Young (7 lbs., 14 oz.). The 30- year-old wife of Warren Young said with a smile that she thinks ''Ten kids is enough now. I'm not kidding.''

For most marketers in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden, brand building is top of mind this year, according to the "2014 State of Marketing: Nordics" report published by ExactTarget, based on an April 2014 survey of more than 400 marketers. Well over half (57%) said increasing and improving brand awareness was their leading priority this year. But getting to grips with data was also a key goal, cited by 52% of respondents. And more than one-third (37%) said they hoped to improve the measurement and results of their work in digital channels.
Fully 99% of marketers polled said they planned to maintain or raise their budgets for the year. The most popular areas for increased spending were social media marketing (mentioned by 71%), search engine marketing and optimization (65%), content management (63%), data and analytics (62%) and listening to consumers on social media (60%).
ExactTarget also surveyed over 4,000 consumers for its report to get another perspective on the ways advertisers in the Nordics communicated with their audiences. The main takeaway from that point of view was the continuing importance of email.
Some 83% of web users polled said they subscribed to company or brand emails—one reason why 63% of marketers agreed that email was a "critical enabler" of the products and services their firm provided. In addition, an average 47% of consumers across the Nordic countries said they started their digital day with email, rather than a news site, social media or any other online destination—and for 31% it was the last online activity of the day.
Email wasn't always used to its full potential in the context of consumer lifecycles, though. While 46% of marketers said that it was a major challenge to build a strong relationship with new subscribers, many were not maximizing their chances to do that.
Newsletters were the lifecycle strategy most popular with these marketers (used by 69%), while 51% used post-purchase approaches, and 47% sent promotional messages. Yet there was a clear mismatch between the declared importance of lifecycle campaigns and the number carried out. For example, 42% of marketers said loyalty campaigns produced excellent or very good results—the highest reported success rate—but only 29% used them.
As the ExactTarget report suggests, email isn't a major focus for marketers in the Nordics planning to spend more on digital tactics this year. Yet email remains a vital component of digital ad spending. According to eMarketer calculations based off of data from GroupM, for example, the format will rank third behind display and search in terms of digital ad investment in Denmark this year, attracting DKK254 million ($45.2 million)—a projected gain of 5.8% compared with 2013.

Paris Air Show: Tale of confidence and concerns
The biggest aerospace event of the year takes off in Paris this week with the two sectors that make up the industry in different moods.
On the civil side, aircraft manufacturers are buoyant, with new products to display and a record backlog of orders.
In contrast, the military sector is less confident. Defence budget cuts, particularly in Washington, have meant arms programmes being scaled back or abandoned.
Optimism among commercial aircraft makers was underlined last week when Boeing published its closely-watched annual forecast for aircraft demand over the next 20 years.
The US planemaker estimates that airlines, leasing companies and freight firms will need 35,280 new planes, a rise of 3.8% on the US manufacturer's previous forecast.
The bulk of the demand will come from the Asia-Pacific region as it becomes the biggest travel and tourism market, said Randy Tinseth, vice-president for marketing at Boeing Commercial Airplanes.
"There is no doubt the industry's centre of gravity is moving from the US to Asia. Right now, 37% of all traffic touches Asia," he said. In 20 years, he estimates, that number will be 50%.
The Paris Air Show headlines will be dominated by Boeing, and that other big beast of the industry, Airbus, shouting about how many orders they have won.
It's a fair bet that most of those orders will be placed by Asian and Middle East airlines, with many buying aircraft in the key medium range segment dominated by Boeing's 737 and the Airbus A320.
Big presence
But what could be fascinating about the Paris trade fair is that this market segment is the one where the two manufacturers face the biggest challenge to their duopoly.
China's Commercial Aircraft Corporation, Irkut from Russia, and Canada's Bombardier - with its C-Series close to making its first test flight - are developing aircraft that they hope will take market share.
And all three have a big presence at the show.
Given the ambitions of these companies, and the demand for new aircraft over the next two decades, analysts believe there is space for new entrants.
Says aviation consultant Howard Wheeldon: "The expansion of China, Russia and Japan, along with existing players who may yet have other long-term intentions such as Embraer and Bombardier, may bring closer the day when the current duopoly between Boeing and Airbus is brought into question."
The order books at Boeing and Airbus are bulging with a backlog of some 6,000 aircraft. High fuel costs, requirements for reduced noise, and the need to replace ageing aircraft means there is certainly a market for these challenger planemakers to aim at.
But Wheeldon wonders if this could be as good as it gets. "With analysts now suggesting that the price of oil may have peaked, particularly given the increase in US shale gas production, will some of the urgency to replace older aircraft now disappear?"
This is the 50th aerospace trade fair in Paris since the city hosted its first in 1909. As it is on Airbus's home turf, the company will want to make a big splash. Boeing, therefore, will not want to be upstaged.
One, possibly two, Boeing Dreamliners, will be on display - one making aerial displays and the other on the ground. Boeing wants to ram home the message that the aircraft's troubles of earlier this year are well behind it.
Meanwhile, Airbus, which on Friday made a much-anticipated maiden flight of its A350, may yet get clearance for the new-generation aircraft to make a flypast.
In the battle for the hearts and minds of the world's aviation money-men, such symbolism matters.
New aircraft are prone to delays and technical problems. So proving that your latest product can actually fly is a major milestone, says Nick Cunningham, aviation analyst at Agency Partners.
"It's good news because it means that you've missed an opportunity to have another big delay," he says.
But the pace of growth worries some experts. Problems with large industrial projects like building aircraft are not new.
'Too far, too fast'
But analysts such as Wheeldon wonder if last year's Airbus A380 wing problems, followed by this year's temporary grounding of the Dreamliner are indicative of pressures to use new technologies to reduce weight and improve efficiency.
He says: "Are the technological boundaries that we understand being pushed too far too fast? Indeed, how much room is really left for airline operators to make even more all-important performance gains?" They are questions that need more discussion, he says.
The bragging rights at air shows go to the company that announces the most orders.
At a media briefing on Thursday, EADS chief executive Tom Enders said he hoped the airlines would sign contracts for firm orders and options for "hundreds" of aircraft.
At the Paris show two years ago, Airbus notched up more than 700 orders. Analysts do not expect a repeat of that number.
Boeing, meanwhile, has actually played down expectations that it would notch up a large batch of orders, suggesting that, these days, trade shows carry less importance as occasions to negotiate and network with potential buyers.
A deliberate lowering of expectations? Or part of the marketing psychology designed to outflank Airbus? We'll know by the end of the week.
One product we may hear a lot about, however, is a "stretched" version of the Dreamliner, so that it can carry more passengers and compete more directly with Airbus's new A350.
Boeing has yet to give the go-ahead for the project, but Singapore Airlines and United Airlines have said they might consider buying a larger Dreamliner.
If Boeing can get a couple of launch customers to commit, Paris would be an ideal time to make the announcement.
The company may also use Paris to officially push the button on a more modern version of its existing 777, using a greater amount of composite materials.
However, Richard Aboulafia, analyst with the Teal Group, is not expecting too much from Boeing at the show.
"Boeing has the broader product line but they are still struggling under the shadows of the 787 (battery) nightmare and they seem unenthusiastic about launching new products."
On the defence side, Paris may be a lot quieter than normal (except for the fighter jets that scream across the skies during the daily displays).
Lockheed Martin, the world's largest defence company, has a much-reduced presence and will not fly its F-35, a jet regarded as a technological masterpiece.
And Northrop Grumman - whose companies include the builder of the Spirit of St Louis, which made the first solo non-stop New York to Paris flight - is not attending.
US government officials and military top brass will also be in short supply. Money is tight following deep budget cuts. But the lack of the usual strong US presence has surprised some experts, as its defence firms now need exports more than ever.
This may open the door for other countries to better showcase their wares to the 50-plus official government and military delegations due to attend.
Russia will be out in force, displaying attack helicopters and fighter jets, including the Sukhoi Su-35. Embraer will show its Super Tucano combat aircraft, and from Europe the Saab Gripen, Eurofighter Typhoon, and Airbus A400M will make appearances.
But Europe, too, has scaled down its turnout. "Defence is in the doldrums and cuts to the budgets of all European nations will impact on what equipment is shown."
By the end of the week, some lucky companies will have done deals and covered their costs of going to Paris a thousand-fold. Others will wonder why they bothered.
But, says Wheeldon: "For everyone who engages in the world of aviation and whose professional lives are bound up in various forms of aerospace technology, Paris can for one week be the greatest place in the world."

Other faculty were also singled out for national and statewide recognition. Among them was Melvyn P. Leffler, professor and chair of the history department, who received the Bancroft Prize - awarded annually by Columbia University to recognize books of exceptional merit in American history, biography, and diplomacy - for his latest book, A Preponderance of Power: National Security, the Truman Administration, and the Cold War. Anita K. Jones, professor of computer science, and Doris Kulhmann-Wilsdorf, University Professor of Applied Science, were selected as members of the National Academy of Engineering. Jones is currently on leave while serving as the director of defense research and engineering for the Department of Defense. Jean Sorrells-Jones, chief nursing executive, was named a Fellow of the American Academy of Nursing.
In addition, four of our professors - a remarkable number in a single year - were made Fellows of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences this year: Jerome J. McGann, the John Stewart Bryan Professor of English; Patricia M. Spacks, the Edgar F. Shannon Professor and chair of the English Department; E. Mavis Hetherington, the James M. Page Professor of Psychology; and G. Edward White, the John B. Minor Professor of Law. Hetherington was also named a William James Fellow by the American Psychological Association, and Spacks assumed the presidency of the Modern Language Association.
University president John T. Casteen, III, was named the year's Outstanding Virginian. The award, established by the General Assembly, pays tribute to a citizen of Virginia who, by his or her dedication and outstanding leadership, has made a distinguished and significant contribution to the Commonwealth. Casteen joins a select company that includes two former governors and two U.S. senators.
One such noteworthy project under way at the University is the high-speed civil transport, a supersonic passenger plane with a range of 5,000 to 6,000 miles. With civilian aircraft now the nation's single largest export, the future of our economy rests to a large measure on our ability to produce the next-generation passenger plane. Crucial research for this plane - the development of an aluminum alloy for the airframe - is being conducted in laboratories in the School of Engineering and Applied Science. The University of Virginia is considered the leading center for aluminum alloy research in the nation.
Finding a more effective, nonnarcotic pain killer is a national priority in health care. In 1992 research scientists at the National Institutes of Health isolated a compound, epibatidine, from the skin of a rare South American tree frog. This proved to be two hundred times as effective as morphine in blocking pain, yet did not cause addiction. This year, T. Y. Shen, the Alfred Burger Professor of Medicinal Chemistry, announced that he had synthesized epibatidine in the laboratory. Working with a research group led by assistant chemistry professor W. Dean Harman, Shen's team created several promising analogs, which have been patented on behalf of the University and are licensed commercially for further development.
Paula D. McClain, chair of government and foreign affairs, has spent the last decade researching the increasingly multiracial politics of the American city. She believes that Americans, from policymakers to average citizens, need to take a closer look at our racial minorities: "The old labels - liberal, moderate, and conservative, so often used to summarize political attitudes and behaviors - fail to take into account the different viewpoints held by racial subgroups." McClain's research forms the foundation for a new book, coauthored with Joseph Stewart, Jr., of the University of Texas at Dallas, Can't We Just All Get Along: Racial and Ethnic Minorities in American Politics.
The University of Virginia is also a leader in environmental research. In 1993-94, the National Science Foundation granted $4 million to the environmental sciences department to continue work on the ecology of a 70-kilometer stretch of Virginia's Eastern Shore. The area selected for the Long-Term Ecological Research project is one of the most rapidly changing sections of shoreline in North America. University scientists are studying erosion patterns on barrier islands and the relationship between saltwater and freshwater ecosystems.
One measure of the quality of research is the support it attracts from both public and private sources. In 1993-94, the University of Virginia attracted a record $135 million for research, an impressive achievement considering that grant money has become increasingly scarce. Less than 2 percent of this money comes from the state.
In the School of Engineering and Applied Science, plans are under way to incorporate applied mathematics into civil engineering. The move, which achieves a modest administrative savings, reflects research showing that students learn mathematics better when it is taught in the context of applications. Looking ahead, the school is considering adding biomedical engineering and materials science options to its undergraduate program.
Students learn by working with and appreciating people of diverse backgrounds. The long-term commitment to increase the diversity of the student body is showing results. The latest application figures reflect this progress. This year, the University received 14,921 applications from highly qualified high-school graduates, including more than 1,400 from African American students, for the 2,785 places in the first-year class. Admissions statistics reveal that 54 percent of the new students are women, 36 percent are out-of-state residents, 12 percent are African American, 11 percent are Asian American, and 2 percent are Hispanic.
Black Issues in Higher Education found that the University now has the highest graduation rate for African American undergraduates (83 percent) of any institution and placed twenty-fifth among traditionally white institutions in the total number of bachelor's degrees awarded to African Americans. Total financial aid to black undergraduates increased from $3.4 million in 1987 to $9.5 million this year. In addition, Asian American students, whose families came from Korea, China, Taiwan, India, and Vietnam, have substantially enriched the academic life on Grounds.
The Office of Student Affairs has played a crucial role in this effort. This year, President Casteen named William W. Harmon vice president for student affairs. Harmon succeeds Ernest H. Ern, now senior vice president of the University. Formerly vice chancellor for student affairs for the 34,000-student University of Pittsburgh system, Harmon comes with the highest recommendations. "He has broad experience," said President Casteen, "and an understanding of the fundamental value this University places on student self-governance."

This is a guest article by David Rounick. Want to become a regular contributor? Check out our guest blogging guidelines.
Sometimes, so-called celebrities are under the assumption that everything they think, say, write is interesting to other people. Sometimes, they're right. Here are 7 celebrity blogs worth checking out.
- Mara Wilson – Mara Wilson isn't a celebrity anymore but that's part of the point of her blog. Wilson was the child star of Matilda, Miracle of 34th Street and Mrs. Doubtfire. These days, the 26-year-old is a writer who has no interest in film acting. She blogs about family, friends, and life in general. She's also written a now viral article about why many child actors go off the deep end. This blog is a good read is your like reading.
- Katy Perry – If you have a slight to high interest in Katy Perry, you might find her Tumbler fun to visit. The pop star posts pictures from tours as well as videos and photos she finds amusing. This blog is good if you don't like reading.
- Roger Ebert – Yes, it's true that Ebert has left us for a bigger screen in the sky but his blog still stands as proof of his intellect, depth, and genuine goodness. When Ebert wasn't watching and writing about movies, he was sometimes writing on his online journal. The topics range from stories from his childhood, religion, politics, and news stories. Each post Ebert shared had purpose. In another words, no fluff here.
- Mindy Kaling – Speaking of fluff, Mindy Kaling blogs. Kaling (writer/actor from The Office and The Mindy Project) writes about whatever she's thinking about at the moment whether it be about her job, heart-shaped pans, or pillows. If you liked her book, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?(And Other Concerns) you'll probably enjoy her blog. You'll notice that the blog is outdated, (The project was probably meant to market her book when it came out) but you can find similar fluff on her show's blog, themindyprojectstyle.com, where all the eye-catching clothes from the show are posted along with where you can find them.
- Eric Idol – For those who long for more of Monty Python's Flying Circus, Eric Idol keeps an active blog on his own website. The writer/actor/singer/songwriter posts a new blog post about 2-3 times a month. Posts will give readers a smile. Idol writes about his daily doings as well as shares project stories from the past. He also posts Shel Sliverstein-esque poetry.
- Margaret Cho – The always brassy, Margaret Cho has a blog that she posts about once a month. She writes about playing guitar, her pets, and her love of all things funny. Sometimes she's posts something as simple as a picture or video, other times she will write about things more important to her like gay rights or her mom.
- Roseanne Barr – If you have an interest in politics, you have something in common with actresses/writer/comedienne/director Roseanne Barr. The star of the show Roseanne regularly blogs on her site Roseanne World. Barr posts open letters to politicians, videos of speeches she has given at events, and writes articles about all the big world issues. Her articles are intelligent and opinionated. Would you expect anything less from her?

The project
Antmod is a project, hosted on Java.net, with active developers contributing additions and improvements. A healthy release cycle ensures that Antmod progresses properly and provides an enormous amount of fixes and improvements for the users of Antmod based on their feedback. The Java.net CVS repository is used to jointly develop Antmod, and from there regular binary releases are published.
The current leads of the project are Klaas Waslander, a Java Architect who formerly worked at the Sun Java Center, and Herko ter Horst, lead engineer at Aduna, a leading semantic web software company in Amersfoort, The Netherlands.
More info about the project is available at Antmod's Java.net Project Page and at http://antmodjava.blogspot.com/.
Antmod started as a conceptual idea across various projects that Klaas Waslander and some of his Java Architect colleagues did across Europe.
In 2003, these ideas were implemented once again at Aduna, a small software company in Amersfoort The Netherlands, when Klaas Waslander had joined Aduna. At the time, Aduna had a clear desire for a way to reuse java components, libraries, configuration, and documentation across multiple projects, without too much hassle. It started out as two Ant build files, and slowly growed into what Antmod is nowadays.
In March 2004, Aduna open sourced their build system under the Common Public License as version 1.0 of Antmod. This was then actively improved and refactored, and resulted in the creation of version 1.1 and further.

Ways to pose for pictures so you look great everytimeIf you're the type of person who clams up in front of digital cameras, it's time to learn a few tricks. Taking a good photo may not seem very important to you, but this simple skill comes in handy often. Learn ways to pose for pictures and both your personal and professional life will benefit.
The continual growth of social meda is opening up opportunities for professionals in all fields to build a personal brand. Whether you blog, tweet, pin or plan to build your own online business, knowing how to strike a confident pose can help you stand out from the crowd. The Internet is also a powerful networking tool for job hunters, and sites like LinkedIn recommend including a sincere profile image to make an impression on potential future employers.
Truth be told, must of us look better in candid shots because that's when our movement and expressions are natural. Occasions like weddings, holidays and anniversaries call for at least a few formal photographs. Whether you're by yourself, with your honey or a group of people, these tips will help you be yourself in front of the camera.
Do try these at home with a mirror!
Solo Shots - Upper Body
You don't need a professional photographer to get a good head shot-style photo. First, stand with the front foot pointing to the digital camera and back foot perpendicular. Turn your shoulders at about a 45 degree angle to the camera.
Stand straight and roll your shoulders back so your posture is straight. Keep your arms just a touch from your body and pull in your stomach while pushing your chest slightly out. Bring your head forward without sticking your chin out too far.
If it's for professional purposes, avoid huge goofy smiles and try to look natural. Dress as you would for a day of work and give the lens a simple it's-a-good-day smile. Look directly into the lens, not off to the side.
For many, natural smiles are easier said than done. One common trick is to look off to the side of the camera and turn to the lens just as the picture is taken. Photos show your warmest side when they catch you beginning to smile.
Solo Shots - Full Body
In addition to the above tips, use your arms and legs to show your best angles. For instance, resting a hand on the hips creates space between the body and limbs, which makes you appear thinner. Turn your body a full three-quarters from the camera, and put your weight on the back leg so you look and feel more relaxed.
Have the photographer stand a little higher than you if you're at all concerned about a double chin. Any pictures taken from below will make you appear heavier.
Ways to pose for pictures with a friend
Couple and best friend shots end up being in your favorite photo album, provided you're happy with how you look. While you may feel on top of the world, try not to over-smile or you may end of looking crazy. Instead do a half-smile and let you hands fall easy at your sides.
With a boyfriend or spouse, stand facing each other and sightly angled at the camera, forming a V with your bodies. Brush your hair away from your face and off of the shoulder. Take a deep breath, relax the camera-facing shoulder and snuggle up a bit.
While smushing faces together can feel cute and silly, it's not exactly flattering. Keep your eyes to the camera for most poses, and heads tilted to each other.
Ways to pose for pictures with family
Trust the photographer to compose the photo when you're in a large group. She'll make sure everyone is in the shot. All the same rules apply. Tilt your head up, angle the body and let your hand fall on your waist or naturally to the side with the shoulder pulled back. Elongate your back so your posture is straight, but not stiff.
Keep these tips in mind next time you're tempted slip away from the camera. No one looks good hiding behind a plant.

Earlier today, HTC and Verizon officially took the wraps off of the HTC One (M8) for Windows, a Windows Phone version of the HTC One (M8) that launched back in March. Verizon said that it had an exclusive on the device, but apparently that exclusive is of the timed variety, not permanent.
AT&T says that it also plans to offer the HTC One (M8) for Windows. However, it didn't say when it will begin selling the device or how much it'll charge for it when it does. Launch and pricing details will be revealed "at a later date," AT&T says.
Even though we don't have many details on its availability, it's good to hear that the One (M8) for Windows will eventually make its way to another U.S. carrier. Because I'm sure that many of us, like our friend Evan, are tired of exclusives.

H.A.N.D.S.SM is a school nurse diabetes management education program developed by the NASN. It is organized into ten sections and presented by a school nurse (RN) and an RN certified diabetes educator (CDE) team contributing clinical expertise and practical knowledge.
The goal of the program is to provide the school nurse with knowledge, skills and resources to coordinate safe and effective diabetes management at school.
Below is information about the in-person or live H.A.N.D.S.SM program. [NOTE: H.A.N.D.S.SM also has an online, self-paced version.]
Effective diabetes management at school requires an individualized plan of care developed by a school nurse for each student. The school nurse coordinates the collection of information from a variety of sources to develop this plan, and then provides the continued oversight to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of this plan of care in the school setting.
H.A.N.D.S.SM equips the school nurse with current diabetes knowledge, and provides tools and resources to facilitate effective diabetes management for students at school,

Participants receive a manual that includes presentation slide handouts and note pages, and diabetes forms arranged by tools for assessment, tools for planning, and tools for implementation of the IHP.
Three individualized healthcare plans are included too. These can be customized for students with diabetes who are dependent for care, self-managing, and developing coping skills.
The tools for implementation include diabetes management logs, procedures, skills/delegation checklists for blood glucose/ketone monitoring, insulin administration, and pump therapy.
Participants should check the participant resources web page on this site to keep current with the program.
6.5 Continuing Nursing Education (CNE) contact hours are awarded for attending the full program and completing an evaluation.

From time immemorial, architects have been linked to greatness when it comes to building and designing. Architects remain on the forefront of securing buildings through designs.
