US firm Latham & Watkins is to lay off a total of 440 employees across its global network.
Earlier this morning managing partner Bob Dell emailed the entire firm announcing a plan to shed 12 per cent of its associate ranks, the equivalent of 190 people, and 10 per cent of all paralegals and staff.
The firm's London office will lose 15 employees.
Dell said: "We deeply appreciate the many valuable contributions and committed service of those affected by this decision.
"We made this painful decision with great reluctance and only after concluding that demand for legal services in this troubled economy will not provide enough work for all of our attorneys."
Dell added that the firm's diverse global network and practice range was built to thrive on greater demand.
He added: "While this brief email announcement is not an ideal form for communicating this type of decision, it's the only realistic way for a firm of our size to inform everyone directly and at the same time."
The firm is offering severance packages that include six months' salary and six months' of continued medical benefits.
The announcement comes after Latham saw its average profits per equity partner (PEP) fell 21 per cent from $2.27m to $1.8m during 2008.

This spring, as part of the On Our Plate series in Food, the Journal Sentinel's dining critic Carol Deptolla wrote about the history of bakeries in the Milwaukee area. She invited readers to send in their memories of bakeries and bakery foods past.
Bakeries remembered
There were so many great bakeries around town in the '60s. Three that come to mind are the Spudnut Shop on Green Bay Ave. next to Solly's (never have been able to find a suitable potato-based doughnut since they closed); Rick's Bakery on Port Washington Road just south of Capitol Drive; and Wedekinds Bakery on 12th and Atkinson Ave., both of whom featured the best sweet rolls and breads around.
- Jim Romanowich
I have some bakery memories:
1. Lakeside Bakery in Bay View, now known as Canfora. This is the bakery of my youth. They used to have mock birthday cakes displayed up above, along the ceiling. One had an astronaut theme. I can still remember straining my neck to get as good a look as it as I could. One year, finally, I got it for my birthday.
This was our "go-to" bakery for a gallon of milk, shaved ham and hard rolls. There are no hard rolls here in the Twin Cities, much less all the different kinds.
2. Nick Papas & Sons, the Greek bakery just off 27th and Lincoln. Baklava to die for!
- Phillip J. Trobaugh
My family has fond memories of enjoying a delicious Christmas tree bread on Christmas morning from the Shorewood Village bakery. It was a pull-apart, yeast bread with an orange-flavored powdered sugar frosting and decorated with nonpareils. I would appreciate having the recipe from the former baker or (his) family.
- Joyce from Colgate
I have many happy memories of bakeries from my childhood in the '50s and '60s. Until 1964, my family lived on W. Fond du Lac Ave., and the bakeries we patronized most were Heinemann's (at Capitol Court), and Kapp's, which was located on W. Fond du Lac Avenue, just south of Capitol Drive. Heinemann's streusel coffeecakes were wonderful, as were the long johns from Kapp's.
After 1964, we moved to Sherman and North. Just around the corner on North Ave. was a bakery called Zomchek's. During our years in the area, we came to know the Zomchek family well. All their bakery was outstanding, and my particular favorites were the Parker House rolls, the lemon slices and the apple pockets.
On 39th and North was a bakery called Lou's. My favorites were the coconut bars, the twice-baked rye bread and a delight called the bird's nest, which was a very large sweet, delicate, deep-fried pastry.
Another bakery we patronized in later years was called Dobke's. . . located on the north side of Vliet St. at 60th. My absolute favorite item was the gooey coffeecake. They also made delicious butter doughnuts and outstanding Christmas cookies.
- Christine Biller
Our neighborhood bakery, called Wirth's, was on the corner of 28th an Auer Ave. At the time, the area was populated by people mostly of German extraction. . . . I will never forget their breakfast hard rolls, frosted long johns, streusel coffeecake, stolen and cheesecake. A unique feature . . . my mother took our Easter or Christmas whole ham to the bakery, Mr. Wirth wrapped it in rye dough and baked it in his huge oven. The juices (and fat) were absorbed by the bread and made excellent snacking; hardly heart-healthy, but so-o-o good."
- Ardis L. Kelling
Editor's note: Thomas F. Voetz sent a list of 23 favorite bakeries. Here are a few of them, and the specialty he remembered:
- Gastriech's (26th and North Ave.): streusel coffeecake.
- Wilbert's (35th St. and W. Villard Ave.): doughnuts.
- Robert A. Johnson (40th and W. National Ave.): Saturday morning bag of broken cookies, $1.
- Hartter's (55th and W. North Ave.): butterhorns.
- Militzer's (N. Teutonia Ave.): blitz torte.
- McCoy's (W. Fond du Lac Ave.): custard pie.
- Liberty (19th and W. National Ave.): Wink at clerk, get a cookie."
- Thomas F. Voetz
Tortes and more tortes
My favorite bakery has and always will be Kulmann's on Mitchell St. It was next to Kunzelman-Esser. They had the most delicious Linzer torte, coffeecake and rye bread. I still miss that smell, when you opened the door.
- Barb Wennerscheidt
When I was growing up on Milwaukee's north side in the 1950s, there was a bakery called Rippels. It was in the 2400 block of N. Weil St. They had the most wonderful torte that was in the shape of a loaf, covered with dark chocolate and white cream swirls on the top.
The cake itself was four layers of yellow moist cake with a buttercream or something like it for a filling. It was called a Vienna Torte and I believe it was their specialty. I have been unable to find anything remotely like it. It was the best, and I'm sure people from that neighborhood would remember this bakery and its wonderful treats.
- Jadzia Czajcznski
I remember having a Militzer's Vienna torte for birthdays, graduations and even weddings. It was so great. When my mother celebrated her 80th birthday, all of a sudden it was gone. . . . I was told the recipe has never been released by the Militzer family. It would be really great if the family could release the recipe now and not let an important piece of Milwaukee heritage die.
- Dianne Johnson
Bakeries in the family
We are Gordon and Barb King from the old Wilbert's Bakery on 37th and Villard. The storefront no longer exists, but we carry the memories in our hearts and hands, and all the recipes for our products in a special box.
Gordon still bakes at least once a week; right now he's into sourdough bread and rolls, but he also makes all kinds of specialty breads, holiday items, hot cross buns and cookies. I bake, too, but can't duplicate what he does because he has the talent that takes so long to develop, that is, how to tell when a yeast dough is ready to be "taken" just by feeling it, how to knead and shape dough into complex shapes, how to tweak a recipe to come out right when it's so hot and humid, or so cold that the dough won't move. I can only follow the recipe.
I'm sure that there are still many of us old-timers around who remember when there was a bakery on every corner.
- Barb King
Actually, my life began living in my family bakery - Wucherer Bakery on 27th & Vliet - before we sold it and the family moved one block from the Pinahs bakery. Growing up in a bakery was grand especially during the holidays.
- William M. Wucherer
Here are (some) poignant memories for me:
1. Being run through Meurer's huge tray washing machine by my mechanic uncle to reach some bolts on the inside at age 8.
2. Running that machine in 9th grade on weekends for $1.25 an hour. If memory serves, I cleaned around 28,000 trays on Saturdays and 12,000 on Sundays.
3. Sunday lunches of Bomberg's ham and rolls.
- Mark Tate
My memory is the summer of 1977, my first job working for Meurer's Bakery at 57th and Vliet. My grandmother was the manager there for many years. . . . Meurer's delivery truck would come, and that's when we would transport the freshly baked goods to the appropriate shelves out front: cake doughnuts (chocolate, powdered or plain); cruellers, longjohns, fruit-filled Danish and my favorite, a cream cheese puff! A delicate fluffy puff pastry filled with cream cheese sprinkled with powdered sugar. Yum! Thank goodness for the mirror in back to make sure there was no evidence left on my face before waiting on a customer."
- Debby Kamine
My grandfather, Harold Fessenbecker, just passed away (in January). He owned Fessenbecker Bakery on North Ave. during the '60s and '70s and was an honorary member of the Wisconsin Bakers Association. I have his recipe book, but the recipes are written for a bakery, in that the amounts are given in pounds, not cups. Do you know how to convert the recipes?
- Tammie Niffenegger
There are at least two bakers in my family tree in Milwaukee. I have a cake plate, a cookbook from 1902 and a photo of the exterior of the bakery from the end of the 19th century. It was the William Plautz Bakery.
- Brian Brehmer
Got bakery recipes?
It's a longing that doesn't quit, this wish to taste a favorite treat from a departed neighborhood bakery. Unfortunately, the recipes disappeared with the bakeries - or did they? Some recipes likely remain within the families of bakery owners, or perhaps with former employees.
The Food section wants to help keep a piece of the Milwaukee area's bakeries alive by publishing their recipes.
Send recipes to Lost Bakery Project, Food Editor Nancy J. Stohs, 333 W. State St., Milwaukee, WI 53203, or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Nokia 3585 / 3585i

Average Ratings
USC Nokia
we have the phone here at the store.. and yes the phone price has come down alot as a matter of fact. it is now 1 cent with the current promo, its a fun phone in my opinon.
Ed. note: Removed contact info.
Very underated
I am with Sprint. I really was slow in buying this phone. My reaserch said it was the one. It was. It receives signals in areas that my 4900 did not. The sound quality is the best. It is not a fancy color phone but for those of us what simply want a phone to make calls on. This is the one
AD reviews continues below...
Good Phone Still has bugs though
This is a great phone, easy to use cool white light. Great sounding ringers...
However Nokia still has some bugs they need to work out... Like if you press 1 and the talk key, it makes the sound stop working, so you
have to turn it of then back on for it to work right. Also, some times they just die, and you can't get any information out of them. It's a great phone otherwise.
I have been carrying this phone for a few weeks, the battery life is excellent and a huge pro is that is will switch to analog easily when you go off network...Battery life is shot in analog but what can one expect...The phone is OK but feels very cheep and I don't feel that it will hold up to the test of time as nokia has been known to do...Customers seem happy today, but six months down the road, I for see all the 3360 problems resurfacing in this late new trendy cheap model...spend a few extra bucks and go with something more durable as our and most carriers will be requiring 24 month contracts before you get a discount again...Lights up nicely and good sound for now, I don't hold much hope for the future like that brutality that my 8265 held up to....
Sprint Nokia...Finally comes through
Although this Nokia doesnt use Sprints new 3G system it still is a great phone for the low end user or teenager. Its about time Nokia and Sprint got there differences together. Remember the fiasco a couple years back when Sprint sent all the Nokia's back and discontinued them casue nokia wouldnt use a chip by qualcomm. This phone is a stepping stone to future product from Nokia. They will sell big and Sprint will see they need to carry more Nokia phones!

Canada, EU warn USA against protectionism
Issued on: Modified:
Canada and the EU warned US lawmakers against protectionist measures Monday, responding to a "Buy American" amendment passed by the US House of Representatives as part of President Barack Obama's $819bn stimulus plan.
Read Owen Fairclough's commentary: 'Us and us only'
AFP - The European Union ratcheted up pressure Monday against US President Barack Obama's Buy American stimulus plan, sending letters to the White House and Congress in protest.
EU ambassador to Washington John Bruton told AFP he had written Monday to congressional leaders and the Obama administration expressing concerns about government legislation to restrict procurement to American goods, including steel and textiles.
"We regard this legislation as setting a very dangerous precedent at a time when the world is facing a global economic crisis," said Bruton, the head of the European Commission delegation to the United States.
The Senate is considering an 888-billion-dollar stimulus plan that restricts stimulus-funded infrastructure projects to use only US manufactured goods.
The House of Representatives last week approved an 819-billion-dollar version of the bill with a more narrow Buy American restriction to US iron and steel.
Bruton said the Buy American provision, if signed into law, could spur other countries to set up protectionist barriers and ultimately cost American jobs.
The current economic crisis is global in nature and "if it needs to be solved, it needs to be a global solution and that global leadership comes together in the G20," he added.
Bruton recalled that the Group of 20 developed and developing countries, at a November crisis summit in Washington, had pledged not to introduce new protectionist measures between then and the next G20 summit, to be held on April 2 in London.
"More important ... is the confidence effect. The public in the world at the moment are looking to be assured that somebody is in charge of the global economy and that global leaders are working together to fix the global economy," he said.
"If we have a series of protectionist measures introduced, then the possibility of real global leadership is put at risk."
And protectionist barriers would "defeat the whole purpose of stimulus," he said.
Bruton said he had received no response to the letters he sent Monday to the White House and the majority and minority leaders of the House and Senate.
"Obviously we'd be hoping that the administration express its views on this. I think the election of President Obama and the response in the world to him is a tremendous economic and political advantage of the United States. It gives the United States the capacity to lead the world by example."
Bruton said there was a "real danger" that a Buy American initiative would "diminish that possibility."
Canada, the United States' largest trade partner, warned Monday that the Buy American provision could result in a global depression.
US protectionism "can only trigger retaliatory action," Canada's trade minister Stockwell Day said.
"These protectionist measures, in a time of recession, only make things worse," Day told public broadcaster CBC.
"It can only trigger retaliatory action and we don't want to go there ... We do not want to see that happen.
"In the 1930s, when the world was headed into a significant recession, it was US protectionist legislation that resulted in retaliatory legislation around the world and really plunged things into a depression," he added.

Sketchbook: Hellboy
A quick Hellboy I did this morning as an experiment. It's been a good 10 years since I used a dip pen for inking and I wanted to give it a try. Now I remember why I stopped using dip pens and brushes to ink... I was never all that good at controlling the line quality. Still, it's always fun to try different art techniques, though I doubt I'll be giving up my PITT art markers any time soon.

They will count it @ RDU but are very nice. If you have a connecting flight they'll usually stop counting and usher you to the front of security
What Happens If You Don't Declare Currency Over $10K at Customs
If you're traveling with currency worth more than $10,000 USD you probably want as few people as possible to know about it. And who wants to go through the hassle of extra paperwork and regulations coming in on an international flight. I've never traveled with that much cash, but always wondered what the penalty for not declaring it would be.
In the United States, it's pretty stiff — they take it ALL.
The Washington Post just ran an article on $72,000 seized by Customs and Border Protection from 3 passengers in 3 days. Two of them had reported $10,000 but were carrying $29,660 and $20,435. The other man headed for Ukraine declared $15,000 but had $22,000. All of it was confiscated, except for $1,000 allowed to the Ukraine bound passenger because he would "need some pocket cash' once there."
None of them were charged with crimes and were allowed to continue their travels, but they'll never get their money back. If distrust of the government is what prompted them to underreport their holdings, this will hardly change that perception.
"It's not a great pleasure for us to take someone's currency because in most cases it's really hard-earned money," Sapp said. "If you're truthful with us, we're not going to take your money."
Losing everything because you didn't fill out a form correctly is pretty severe, but good to know. There's no guarantees they won't confiscate your cash at customs even if you do declare, but at least you stand a chance of keeping it. And if you're flying within the US, don't carry cash, ever.

It's all a damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario.
Try asking any of the myriad motorists pulled over along Amerikan highways for routine traffic stops if declaring the cash they were carrying was worth it?
I am of course referring to 'civil asset forfeiture'.
I once needed to declare but nobody at the security point had any idea of how to do it or what form to fill. They sent me to ask in a TSA office. No idea. They made me call a number. No answer. I finally went through because I was going to miss my plane, but I guess they should be more informed. I think the problem is that there is no customs officials when you are leaving the airport
What will happen if you dont declare at the courier services that you put a money to the things you sent to your love ones in other country? Is it possible that the customs will hold it? And pay for a tax
Enjoy your articles, Keri. One small correction: it's Ukraine, not the Ukraine. I have no idea why so many people tack on "the".
thats a bull shit those fuckers want take your mony fuck the goverment
Dear Sir, Madam
I appreciate if the information below still valid
my girl Ukrainian girl friend will travel tomorrow from Kiev airport to meet me in Kuala Lumpur to got married
she have been informed that she should go out of the country carrying cash or check with a value of $3000 to be allowed to travel
she has returned ticket and hotel reservation
Please reply me ASAP, because she is worried to go to the airport and my not allow her to travel
Thank you for your help
Customs Control: Leaving Ukraine
When leaving Ukraine, you will have to fill the Exit Customs' Declaration in to list the valuables you are bringing out of the country. Please, note that valuables not included in the Entrance Declaration will be subject to Customs taxes and fees. Below are things to consider when leaving Ukraine.
It is allowed to carry out of Ukraine:
Cash and travel checks totaling up to USD 10,000 and carried into Ukraine. If money you carry out exceeds USD 3,000 it should be declared in written form. However, it cannot exceed amount you carried in to the country.
Ukrainian cash up to UAH 10,000. To be declared.
Commemorative coins of gold and silver, nominal value of which is in UAH and does not exceed UAH 5,000. To be declared.
Bank metals, which total weight is up to 100 grams per person, regardless of person's age. To be declared.

(an excerpt from my on-line course "Say I Do, Body, Soul, Spirit')
As I work to help couples resolve their conflicts, the top three presenting issues, consistently and repeatedly revolve around sex, communication and finances. (As an FYI, the title of my master's thesis was "Naked and Unashamed; Breaking Barriers Associated With Marital Sex.)
Insurance, government and bank statistics reveal that the majority of people do not have control over their finances. Temptation, ignorance and negligence usually contribute to financial pressure. By simply focusing on the situation, understanding a few principles and establishing a good framework, finances can come under control quite easily, offering greater marital stability while increasing the probability that you will enjoy the life you're working for.
Eight Basics For Financial Stability
1 ) Make a budget and keep it.
2 ) Keep a record of expenses.
3 ) Save even while paying debt.
4 ) Use credit cards only if you pay the full balance each month before interest is applied.
5 ) Tithe.
6 ) Make a will.
7 ) Keep financial records safe and in order.
8 ) Learn about laws on family benefits.

MAN!!! Apparently who's no more is Jiah Khan!!!
Yes, the same girl who'd succeeded in making men and women alike 'NISHABD', way back in 2007. For entirely different reasons though! 😉
The very same girl who made us realize that the letter B resembles a 'Bum' and that's what the Big B really is! 😛
Anyway, this is the girl who created a B-town record of sorts. Show me one girl who's been lucky enough to star alongside THE BIGGEST names of Bollywood, back-to-back, in the first two projects of her career…
The third, and unfortunately, final movie on her resume- Housefull, was also quite a decent venture. I really enjoyed that scene of her warding off 'Aakhiri Pasta's' lustful smooch in her reel life. 😆 But what's not funny is her opting for the Aakhiri Raasta in real life. 😦
Suicide is something that always succeeds is making me 'nishabd'. I wonder what possessed her into snuffing her precious life at such a tender age.
If it was professional failure that goaded her into taking such an extreme step, I wish she'd looked at her peers. She literally would have thanked her stars! Pun Intended!!! 😀 (For not committing the irreversible mistake that she just did!)
Whenever I see a piece on Uday Chopra in the papers, I inadvertently hold my breath. I always have thought him to be the most likely candidate for plunging to an untimely death. If in life, we've known him as Uday Chopra, in death, it'll still be close enough. 'Udi' Chopra. 😆
To always walk in the shadow of your extremely successful sibling can be highly frustrating, but look at the lad! He cares a F@*# as to what people think of him and cares for a F@*#… Oops Fakhri!!! 😆 😆 😆
Then there's Tusshaar. It's doubly frustrating when there are two big success stories you need to eclipse. But the Hushaar boy has never drowned in his gham. Instead he has always wisely kept mum and excelled slowly but steadily at Dumb-Charades-Dumb. Now you know how he pulls off that 'totla' act with such aplomb! 😀
Matching up to three family members with talent and beauty worth a million dollars can make anyone get hot under the collar. But nothing can shake the indomitable AbhiSHAKE. And now that baby Aaradhya's here, Aby's Baby no longer feels that he's the least best at things! 😛
Each of these gentlemen had a lot more credibility to lose and a lot more flak to gain each time they failed. But thankfully good sense prevailed.
If it was personal failure, Bipasha Basu should have been dead a long time ago! Instead, she still sheds copious amounts of Aasu publicly but is very much hale and hearty 😆
Thank goodness Kareena didn't pull off a SHAHID Bhagat Singh stunt on herself after her relationship with Sasha went kaput 😀
Instead, she became more guarded, played 'SAIF' 😉 and finally made it large! Begum of Pataudi, no less!!!! 😆
RIP Jiah! You're certainly not the first and you surely won't be the last. You did what you had to do and there's no turning back now…yet nothing, absolutely nothing in life warrants such a drastic measure cuz suicide can never ever give you true closure.
BELOW: Ethereal!

This post originally appeared on Wallyhood, the Wallingford, Seattle neighborhood blog. Visit us for more Wallingford news.
(By Chris Witwer)
I recently wrote a quick post about the 46th Street Mural Project survey. A commenter to that article, "walkinroun," indicated s/he isn't really that fond of the type of public art the mural produced, nor some of the other public art projects in Seattle. I have to agree. I mean, I like the Lady Bug and the Sea Turtle traffic circles, but think we could've done even more with them. So here's our chance to create something different:
Seattle Department of Neighborhoods has announced the 2011 program for the Neighborhood Matching Fund. This year there have been a lot of changes, including updated application forms, program guidelines, and application deadlines. And to provide more opportunities for smaller projects, the Small and Simple Fund now has three application rounds in 2011. The first deadline is January 18, 2011. For more detailed information on each department's project criteria & deadlines, visit www.seattle.gov/neighborhoods/nmf/.
Seattle Department of Neighborhoods provides programs and service that engage residents in civic participation, foster stronger communities, make government more accessible, and preserve and enhance the character of Seattle's neighborhoods.

The Lighting Layer Approach
The lighting layers approach is a method used for layering lighting systems to help create composition and a particular aesthetic in a space. This approach is a lighting design that will provide a variety of light sources to accommodate your space and visually aid everyday tasks. Its also a great approach to help add shadows and accents that will create a nice ambiance in your space. Here is the approach in detail layer by layer so you may have a better understanding. Try combining layers of light to accommodate more than just one function. Choose lighting fixtures that are multifunctional and that can be applied to more than one layer use.
Ambient/Overall Layer: The ambient layer is to provide an overall lighting source that will help aid traffic and other basic visual tasks throughout the home. Remember that if the ambient light level in the space is lower than the task levels, the contrast will create a dramatic affect in the space. If the ambient light levels are as high as task level lighting then the space will be brighter. Even though each layer has a unique responsibility in a lighting design it is important to try to incorporate layers that can be multifunctional and complimentary with each other.
Task Layer: The task layer is meant to illuminate specific areas or surfaces at which the task is taking place on or at. Energy Saving: If you use more task lighting instead of ambient lighting in a residential setting it will help waste less energy. Try placing task luminaries so that it only illuminates specific areas at where the task is taken place. For example: your favorite couch or seat in the living room where you might read should be illuminated with a portable lamp. If your portable lamp is placed behind you while you are seating it's a good idea to have the bottom of the shade at 47 inches from the finish floor to help provide adequate lighting. If your lamp is next to you on the right or left side, the bottom of the shade should be approx. 40-42 inches from the finish floor.
Focal Layer: The focal layer is an aesthetic type of lighting source that helps stylize and enhance features in a specific area and/or display. Focal lighting types tend to be adjustable light fixtures so that its easier to utilize in a variety of ways when needed. Examples of areas that probably need focal lighting are pieces of artwork, displays, and architectural features.
Decorative Layer: The decorative layer provides some illumination and is usually ornamental, but its purpose is to help make a statement or add to a themed space. The decorative layer will need additional layering like ambient or task to help provide more efficient illumination in a space. For example a crystal chandelier might make a great statement in a dinning room, but keep in mind it might not be able to provide enough illumination for that entire space. So for example it might be necessary to have additional fixtures like recessed down lights to help provide more light sources over task areas.
Decorative Types: Chandeliers, lanterns,Pendants, Wall Sconces, Wall Torchieres , Lamps. Remember, too many styles and lighting fixtures can look busy. You don't want to create over illumination and you don't want to have your space visually uncomfortable. The solution is to be able to choose lighting fixtures that not only serve two or more functions in that space, but can be utilized in other lighting layers and will help the flow of your home's décor. Pendants and wall sconces are great additions to start with for your lighting design.

Vice-Dean: Nguyen Minh Tri, Ph.D
Tel: (054) 3822934
Email: email@example.com
Website: www.husc.edu.vn/khoasinh/
Along with the establishment of Hue University by the Decree 426/TTg dated 27 October 1976 of the Prime Minister, the Faculty of Chemistry-Biology-Geography was established. At the time, the Department of Biology, which belonged to the Faculty of Chemistry-Biology-Geography, was permitted to run two transition courses of Productive Agriculture and Applied Biochemistry. Since 1977, the Department of Biology has offered both full-time as well as in-service undergraduate courses.
In 1980, due to an increase in the training demand as well as the specific needs of each department, the Faculty of Chemistry-Biology-Geography was dissolved into the Faculty of Chemistry, the Faculty of Biology and the Faculty of Geography-Geology; thus the Faculty of Biology was founded. In the beginning, the Faculty of Biology included two sections, Botany-Plant Physiology-Biochemistry-Microbiology and Zoology-Genetics-Animal Physiology.
In November 1988, for the development of the Faculty of Biology as well as the needs for major training, the Rector of Hue University decided to re-arrange the organization structure of the Faculty of Biology by dissolving two previous sections and establishing four following sections:
1. Genetics-Biochemistry- Microbiology-Biophysics
2. Botany
3. Cytology-Histo-Embryology-Human and Animal Physiology
4. Zoology – Ecology
However, in July 1991, to ensure the appropriate proportion of majors and faculties, the Rector of Hue University re-arranged the Faculty of Biology with 04 sections as follows:
1. Plant Physiology-Biochemistry-Microbiology
2. Botany
3. Animal Physiology-Cytology-Genetics
4. Zoology- Ecology
In April 1999, in order to meet the social demands as well as to be in accordance with regional and international integrations, Hue University of Sciences, to which the Faculty of Biology belongs, approved to set up two more sections by transferring the faculties and staff from former sections of the Faculty of Biology, these were:
1. Resource- Environment, and
2. Biotechnology
Thereby, since the mid 1999, the Faculty of Biology has included 06 sections. These are also six sub-majors in Biology Bachelor course. Besides, in since the academic year of 2004-2005, based on the potential of science staff and the social demand, the Ministry of Education and Training and Hue University have permitted the Faculty of Biology to start a 5 year engineer undergraduate course in biotechnology. Therefore, from then on, the Faculty of Biology has concurrently offered two full-time undergraduate programs, Bachelor of Science major in Biology and Bachelor of Engineering major in Biotechnology.
Apart from Bachelor's courses, the Faculty of Biology is one of the pioneer Faculties to implement the graduate courses. Since 1993, the Faculty of Biology has been permitted to train five Master's courses, including Biochemistry-Plant Physiology, Cytology-Animal Physiology (from 1st training course), Zoology, Botany (from 4th training course) and Ecology (from 7th training course). In 2005, two Master's courses, Biochemistry-Plant Physiology and Cytology-Animal Physiology, were merged into Experimental Biology. Moreover, the Faculty of Biology has been offering two more graduate courses in Environmental Management since 1998 and in Biotechnology since 2010. In addition of training Master's courses, since 1998, the Faculty of Biology has been permitted to open two Doctor's courses in Human and Animal Physiology and Plant Physiology.
Up to now, the Faculty of Biology has been training 35 full-time Bachelor's courses (including transition courses) and 12 in-service courses with the total of 1887 students and 18 graduate courses with the total of 315 master students and 12 doctoral students).
The Faculty of Biology has also taken part in offering full-time as well as on-the-job courses in regular and in service at the other members of Hue University viz. Hue College of Education, University of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Medicine and Pharmacy, University of Foreign Languages and University of Economics as well distant learning courses and in-service courses in areas across the whole country. Also, the Faculty of Biology has offered courses at Thua Thien Hue College of Education, Da Nang University of Education and Da Nang University of Technology.
Apart from the training activities, the Faculty of Biology has also focused on research activities- one of the Faculty's strengths. Until now, the Faculty has finished 54 research projects at the university level, 37 projects at provincial level, 38 projects at ministerial level, 4 projects at senior ministerial level, 36 projects for basic research program, 6 branch projects at state level and 2 independent projects at state level. In addition, the Faculty of Biology also took part in many internationally cooperative projects, including 2 projects sponsored by ASEAN, 3 projects sponsored by France, 1 project sponsored by Canada and 1 project sponsored by Denmark.
In the last 10 years, thanks to the assistance of the lecturers and the enthusiastic learning of students, the scientific research activities of students at the Faculty of Biology has developed steadily. There were 72 projects carried out by our students and they have won various awards every year. Of these, there were 01 second prize, 01 third prize of VIFOTEC and 26 prizes of Student Scientific Research (including 02 first, 06 second, 10 third and 08 satisfactory prizes), 10 prizes of Sony Green Invention (05 second, 04 third prizes and 01 collaborative prize).
The Faculty of Biology always takes an interest in writing the theoretical and practical textbooks for teaching purposes. In addition, the methodology and learning techniques are improved in order to continuously enhance the quality of training. Up to now, the members of the Faculty have written 38 textbooks for undergraduate and graduate courses, and some electronic lessons.
Presently, the Faculty of Biology has 36 personel including 31 lecturers, 4 laboratory assistants and 1 general assistant. Among the lecturers, there are 06 Associate Professors, 10 Doctors and 12 Master holders (including 2 Ph.D students).

What stroke me first is the example available at http://schema.org/UserInteraction: [[[ This article has been tweeted 1203 times and contains 78 user comments. <meta itemprop="interactionCount" content="UserTweets:1203"/> <meta itemprop="interactionCount" content="UserComments:78"/> ]]] A couple of problems here: 1. the types UserTweets and UserComments are embedded in the content attribute with their value, so if I wanted to extract the number of comments of the article for example, I would have do extra custom processing to explode "UserComments:78", in order to get the type, and the value for that type (with no property between the two?). The extra processing required is not in line with the microdata or the RDFa specs at all. For proof, you can try this snippet at http://foolip.org/microdatajs/live/ and note that the value 1203 and 78 do not get extracted in any way. 2. Microdata and RDFa both encourage reusing the existing content of the page, so this example would be more in line with the specs by wrapping each number with a span element: [[[
 How to Tie a Reef Knot by John Doe This article has been tweeted 1203 times and contains 78 user comments.
 ]]] which allows extraction of the number of tweets and comments following the specs. The definition of http://schema.org/UserComments is also strange: "User interaction: A comment about an item." so according to this definition, UserComments is not the number of comments as the example in UserInteraction lets us think, but rather an actual comment left by a user? That's not inline with example of UserInteraction. Back to http://schema.org/UserInteraction, it says "A user interacting with a page", and inherits properties such as: - attendees (the people who attended another user leaving comment?) - performers (the people who were involved in writing the comment?) - duration (the duration a user took to leave his comment?) - location (the location the user was at when he left his comment?) I'm being slightly ironic here, but my point is to show that this modeling is overly complex and not something people will implement... all what is needed here in a property to specify how many comments (or tweets, or blocks, downloads, likes, etc) a given page/article has. My suggestion to solve the above issues would be to drop the type UserInteraction and turn the existing types UserTweets, UserComments, etc in properties belonging to a generic type like CreativeWork.

I was so happy to wake-up this morning and discover that a photo for the Lanvin for H&M campaign had been unveiled.
This campaign will hit 200 stores worldwide November 23 and will surely not disappoint! I'm really feeling all the outfits and jewelery. I will be buying the tuxedo blazer,the ruffled dress, and striped dress or I might just end up buying everything in the collection if I can get my hands on it!
I really like what they have done in this photo embracing all ages. Jane Schmitt is still working it! These girls look fierce and like they are heading out for a night of fun. The line appears to have Lanvin trademarks such the feminine lines, noticeable jewelery, asymmetrical shoulders. Alber Elbaz definitely showed his influence on this collection.I am so glad H&M has collections like this for those who can't afford the real Lanvin line
Do you like this preview?
What was caught your eye?
What will you buy?
Who do you want H&M to collaborate with next?

As the Neptune Coastline campaign marks its 50th year, a Tyneside shoreline landmark celebrates its 25th anniversary of opening to the public.
Last season Souter lighthouse at South Shields welcomed more than 28,000 visitors for the first time and over half a million since the National Trust opened the doors in 1990.
They come to climb the 76ft high lighthouse for the view, visit the shop, cafe, engine room and the display of what life was like in the lighthouse keeper's cottage.
There is also the 2.5 miles of strolling along The Leas, where National Trust rangers and the volunteer Coastal Conservation Group are conducting a year-long biodiversity survey.
Nick Dolan, general manager for Souter Lighthouse and The Leas, said: "We're all delighted that so many people have visited. It's an inspirational place and the staff and volunteers work very hard to make it as attractive and family-friendly as possible, and tell the stories of the lighthouse and this coast."
July 19 marks the day Souter Lighthouse was opened as a National Trust property for the first time in 1990 and it is celebrating all year with a series of events and activities.
The adjacent Whitburn Coastal Park is one of the locations used by local conservation charity Prickly Pals North East, which cares for sick, injured and orphaned hedgehogs.
The park is reclaimed colliery land and includes tree planting, a bird observatory, viewing screens and wetland habitats. It is designated as a Local Nature Reserve and a lottery funded project in 2011 saw the installation of new ponds by the Coastal Conservation Group.
Twelve recovered animals have been released since May 2014 and a further eight are due to be released this spring.
One of the hedgehogs released was even named Souter.
Sharon Brown from Prickly Pals said: "There's a healthy population of hedgehogs in the coastal park and we're grateful to the Coastal Conservation Group who have been making mammal habitats in the park, including building log piles which are superb areas for hogs."
Simon Colvine, visitor experience manager at Souter Lighthouse said: "We're really pleased to play a part in caring for hedgehogs and Prickly Pals are holding a Hedgehog Adventure Day in our wildlife garden on Sunday May 3. "
Prickly Pals was set up four years ago by retired civil servant Paula Charlton, from Cleadon, and friend Lorraine Montgomery.
With hedgehogs in decline nationally, the charity looks after animals which are sick, or have been victims of traffic, dogs, or strimmers.
They are helped by vet Wendy Rowntree, whose practice is in Kings Road in Southwick in Sunderland.
"They have been absolutely brilliant," said Paula.
The charity helps between 100 and 150 hedgehogs a year.
"When people find distressed hedgehogs they don't know here to take them, so there was an obvious need," said Paula.
"We give them a chance they would otherwise have had.
"Hedgehog numbers are falling, and people often say they used to see them but now no longer do."

The Parish boundary
Barcombe Parish is largely bordered by the Cooksbridge -Town Littleworth road to the west, and by the River Ouse to the east. The north and south boundaries wander along tracks and field edges.
Old maps
Looking back in time, historic maps let you chart the development of the village or perhaps the site of your home. A fine starting point is the Barcombe and Hamsey project. For the wider area, try the zoomable maps from 1875 onward at www.old-maps.co.uk.
Conservation Areas, Planning boundary
Barcombe Cross has an assigned Planning Boundary plus one Conservation Area, while Barcombe (the area around St Mary's Church) has its own Conservation Area. Here are the maps current in November 2014. Each opens in a new tab.
Barcombe Cross Planning Boundary
Barcombe Cross Conservation Area
Barcombe has more footpaths than you can shake a walking stick at. Perhaps the best way to see what's out there — without actually stirring from your chair — is to use the County Council's excellent zoomable map: not only does this show every footpath and bridleway, but also lets you switch between map view and aerial view. The latter is very handy to put paths in context. Permissive paths are not shown: please see below for a definition.
If you prefer your information on paper, Barcombe Stores offers a large-scale OS-based parish map. Better still, it also stocks a very useful booklet of circular walks published by the Footpaths Society. This has both maps and turn-by-turn directions. Traditionalist may prefer an Ordnance Survey map, available from the OS website or from Lewes Library.
Barcombe and the Right to Roam
The Countryside and Rights of Way Act defines 'access land'. This is an area where we (the public), with certain restrictions and responsibilities, are allowed to visit, or have the 'right to roam'.
The nearest access land is on the Downs to either side of Lewes and in North Chailey. Areas are marked on a modern OS map, or can be viewed here.
So: Barcombe and its surroundings has NO access land - but does have many footpaths, some bridleways and at least one permissive path, all of which are for public use. Even on these there are some restrictions: the Rambler's Association has basic information on Rights of Way, which is very well worth reading.
Walking anywhere other than on footpaths or bridleways — ie across fields, along tracks and particularly around temptingly-wide field margins — is irresponsible, possible dangerous and potentially illegal. Farmers, landowners and farm staff will be rightly irritated if you do. If you wonder why, consider this: how would you feel if a posse of farmer workers decided to stroll round your garden, just because they fancied the idea? The difference is only one of scale!
Please remember: in Barcombe and the surrounding parishes, there is no right to roam.
From Wikipedia: A permissive path, permitted path or concessionary path is a path (which could be for walkers, riders, cyclists, or any combination) whose use by the public is allowed by the landowner, but over which there is no right of access.
A permissive path is often closed on a specified calendar day each year, and is usually clearly signed as a permissive path. These are precautions to prevent any possible future claim of continuous public access along the path, which could result in it becoming designated as a statutory right of way.

Okay, so, this is hard, but it's necessary. It's time to start over, and there's been too many changes since I started this blog. This is part of my massive overhaul. I'm not the same woman I was, and I don't want to go through and edit or throw things away either. the past few years of my life while I was writing this blog have been exceedingly hard. Time for fresh starts, fresh breaths, and turning over fresh leaves. I am, and will always remain, a domestic anarchist, but the title relates for me to a different time. A time of love and loss. A time that knocked me off my feet, and knocked the wind out of me. A time that forced me to grow in ways I didn't know I could.
And now it is time to end. But every ending is also a beginning, and everything must first be broken down in order to be rebuilt. so, thanks to my few friends that followed me, and also the few followers that I picked up in my short years of sporadic blogging. It won't be long till I form a new blog, I'm sure, and I shall be sure to post a link, so that you can all come see it.

In relay competition, the coaches and trainers often try to fix the fastest runners for the beginning and the end as the speed at those stages can greatly impact the overall performance of the team.
It's December and there's a sense of relaxation in the air.
Business is winding down and probably closing for the year.
The question is, what did you plan to achieve at the beginning of the year? How far have you come? For a number of us, the zest and zeal had died down as the year progressed.
But all hope is not lost.
If you outline your goals and have split them into smaller bits, there surely must be something you can get done in the remaining 20 days.
Don't give up or give in.
You can make this month the most profitable of 2016.
Successful people are those have successful habits.
What are the activities of your day? What takes up the better part of your efforts and time for the day?
What you repeatedly do, you become – Aristotle
Make going after your goals a habit.Success isn't how far you got, but the distance you traveled from where you started. Click To Tweet
Start small and grow upwards.
There's always room for improvement.
You should be better than you were yesterday. That's the true definition of success.
When you finally accomplish a goal, you'd feel a sense of fulfillment and pride in yourself. This is a positive emotion that we all love to have.
No athlete crosses the finish line first and has a frown.
They beam with joy, excitement, and pride. The cameras flash, the fans cheer and for that moment, they experience a myriad of emotions, laughing, crying, jumping, running about in ecstasy, etc
This is important because you can say to yourself, "I did it!"
It will give you the needed momentum to begin 2017. I'm really excited about 2017. Like every athlete prepares for a major tournament, or every expectant mom prepares for the birth of a baby, so should we prepare for the new year.
What are you doing now to fully maximize the coming year?
Make a decision that 2017 will not be like 2016.
Unpredictable things will happen, what will your response be? Will it trigger you into action or sink you into despair?
Watch this video and be motivated to get moving.

Why Should You Measure Viscosity?
Regulation and Compliance: Cannabis
The continued increase in medicinal and recreational use of cannabis products have led to increased regulations and standards when it comes to manufacturing and using cannabis products. Depending on the regulations of each state in the US and overall standardization with the FDA, it is imperative to understand your cannabis product before it reaches the market and continuously even after it has been released in the market.
There are many methods to absorbing cannabis products. Some include:
- Tinctures
- Topicals
- Thashish - Edibles
- Vaporizers
All methods listed above require understanding your product by measuring viscosity. Also mentioned in our Cannabis oil viscosity application note, ensuring that the viscosity of the products you manufacture or the products you are purchasing from manufacturers are being measured is important for safety, health, and overall experience with the products.
Would you like more information or would like to talk to a specialist? Get connected to a specialist by entering your information on the form.
Frequently Asked Questions:
It depends on what you want to know. In an ideal world, you should be able to test your sample in all types of conditions so you can be prepared for what the end user will experience. Sometimes, this is not possible. However, we encourage you to analyze temperature dependent viscosity to mimic storage of the product in various environments.
Environments can have different temperatures such as the inside of a car on a hot summer day or a colder climate on top of a hill. Your product should be able to withstand to a certain degree of various environments and developing your product or improving through temperature dependent viscosity studies can help.
This question needs to be redirected to a bit more of a "what would happen if my cannabis oil isn't formulated properly?" Well, many different possibilities can happen in this case but here are two possibilities we find major:
- cannabis oil with a viscosity too low or too high will result in improper transport when it comes to vape pens. The flow through the vape pen and contact with the heating element is extremely dependent on the viscosity of your cannabis oil
- If you do not formulate properly, the effectiveness whether it is for medicinal or recreational purposes can be affected and hence the experience you wish to create for the end user will not be there

During an interview with Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Wednesday's "MSNBC Live," anchor Stephanie Ruhle asked Warren "you guys were in power for the last eight years. Why is it that it didn't work for those good Americans you were working for?"
Warren said, "Our problem is not that Washington doesn't work well enough for the billionaires and the bankers, it's working just great for them. Our problem is it's not working for working families."
Ruhle then asked, "Why? Why has income inequality failed to get significantly better in the last eight years? Because we look at the last 45 days, President Trump is surrounded by those CEOs, who've been complaining the last eight years. Why is it good times for them?
Warren answered, "You know, that's a big part of what's going on here, is that, it's policy set right here in Washington that, over and over and over, help those who can hire armies of lobbyists and those who can hire armies of lawyers. The policies here are for the billionaires. They're for the bankers. They're for the giant corporations. They get the tax breaks. They get the regulatory boosts. They get the great deals in Washington. And, regular families, just people who are trying to put it together day by day by day, they're the ones who get left behind.
Ruhle then pushed back, "But Senator, you guys were in power for the last eight years. Why is it that it didn't work for those good Americans you were working for?"
Warren responded, "You know, let's be clear about what it means to be in power. The Republicans had a blocking position. When they didn't have a blocking position, we got the Affordable Care Act through, and when they didn't have a blocking position, we got through the Wall Street reforms. But once they had a blocking position in the Senate and then in the House, we couldn't get the minimum wage increase. We couldn't get increases into Social Security. We couldn't get a more progressive tax bill. So, look, I don't want to try to shovel off all the blame. I think there's plenty that we can do, we should have done, we must do in the future on our side of the aisle. But let's be very clear. The Republicans have made their part of the agenda 100% obvious. They are here to make sure that Washington works for those at the very, very top, and they have done a great job of that."
Ruhle then said, "I understand how frustrating this must be, since Republicans were in a position to block all this time, and the American people haven't been served, do you think you could work with Republicans?"
Later on, Ruhle added, "This is the first market-moving president we've ever had, calling out specific companies, discussing those companies, meeting with them during the transition time. And now we're in a position where he can use someone like Carl Icahn, one of the biggest, most predatory investors out there to help advise him on regulation and who he's going to choose to be regulators. How do we address the fact we've got a market-moving president? I mean, Martha tSewart went to jail over lying about timing and information that she had. Insider trading is a big, big deal, and we have someone who can send out a tweet, and move a stock in seconds."
