The Zhengde Emperor (1491 – 1521), born Zhu Houzhao, was the tenth Emperor of the Ming dynasty and was infamous for his lackluster leadership and childish disposition.[1]
Of his concubines, his favorite was Shao Jun, who eventually became a member of the Chinese Brotherhood of Assassins after his death; he liked abusing his power and often used Jun for mischief and humiliation of the court.[2]
He was eventually succeeded by his nephew Zhu Houcong—secretly backed by the Templars—due to the Zhengde Emperor's lack of a legitimate heir.[2]
- The Zhengde Emperor's birth name is Zhū Hòuzhào (朱厚照). His family name, Zhū (朱), refers to the color vermilion. His personal name is Hòuzhào (厚照). The former component Hòu (厚) literally means "thick" though in this context can mean "profound" or "substantial". Zhào (照) means "to shine", "to illuminate", or "to reflect".
- Zhèngdé (正德) is Zhū Hòuzhào's era name. Historically, Chinese emperors were given posthumous names, temple names, and era names. In English, it is conventional to refer to early Chinese monarchs by their posthumous names. However, after the Tang dynasty, posthumous names became increasingly long and tedious to read and write, spanning at least seven characters. From the Tang up until the Mongol Yuan dynasty, emperors are conventionally referred to by their temple names, whereas the emperors of the last two dynasties, the Ming and Qing, are commonly referred to by their era names. Emperors of dynasties before the Ming tended to have multiple era names, which made it impractical to adopt their era names to identify them posthumously, but starting from the Ming, emperors began to adopt one era name per reign.
- As Zhū Hòuzhào's era name, Zhèngdé is not one of his actual names, but the name of his regnal period. Thus, it is incorrect to call him "Emperor Zhengde" or even "Zhengde" rather than "the Zhengde Emperor" (i.e. "Emperor of the Zhengde era").
- The era name Zhèngdé (正德) literally means "correct virtue".

Almost without a whisper, two very large pharma companies — on July 31 (Merck), and on August 1, 2008 (Schering-Plough) — made their Second Quarter periodic disclosures on Forms 10-Q, to the SEC, and the investing public, at large.
I am puzzled that here, seven full days later, most news outlets have not yet run blurbs alerting the public to the filings (think Bloomberg, here). That is unusual — but I think it is unusual, because the companies themselves usually send a wire notice of significant periodic financial SEC fiiings to the financial news outlets. Apparently, not so this time.
I am entirely unconvinced that this was some sort of vain attempt to "hide" anyhing — for to expound that notion, is to expose it — as patently silly. One cannot "hide" SEC filings. No, I now think the SEC took a few days (perhaps lasting into yesterday afternoon) to clear the requests for confidential treatment Merck, at least, made — as to the various Joint Venture contract amendments. [I am still puzzled that Schering did not file them as exhibits to the Schering Form 10-Q, as well — as the applicable SEC rules plainly require Schering to do so.]
All of that said, I remain astonished that Schering's SEC filing puts one of the key concerns from the SEAS study data in its third-full paragraph, while Merck makes the SEAS cancer incidence data its second full sentence of disclosure, on that topic. Morevoer, Schering's filing makes no mention of the FDA's now required language on Vytorin cardiac morbidity rates. Merck, in stark contrast to Schering, sets it forth, right up front. Odd. Truly.
Were I a plaintiffs' lawyer, I might be inclined to make a little hay in front of Judge Cavanaugh on these differential disclosures — especially given that the Cholesterol Joint Venture's Equity Income is clearly a larger proportion of Schering's results — than Merck's. Wow.

Inspired by 1940's chic this hat is a red feather one of a kind creation and an absolute showstopper. Fantastic derby, church, or bridal hat. For the collector, this hat is a brilliant example of McConnell's work. Circumference around the outside brim 24 1/2''. A true vintage piece that is in very good vintage condition. It is over 50 years old. I have not detected any missing flowers, large stains or damage to the body (see the photos).

30 Secret Numbers
Almost every day, I receive messages from young men and women asking me: "How do I develop myself so I can land a job with a decent salary? How do I start my own project and fulfil my dreams? To whom should I turn for guidance and support in solving my problems? Why don't I get to travel like everyone else? What are the secrets to success? What do I do and where should I start? I feel frustrated in my own country." These recurrent questions, and many more, are essentially what urged me to write this book.
The story is about Farhan, a young man who will journey between galaxies in his own open space, in search of the secrets of his subconscious mind and the keys to success.
In the first galaxy, while he is still in the womb, we witness a dialogue between him and his mother; an ongoing conversation during his life-before-life. His first secret is a universal language carrying symbols and a complex code. It is the secret language the two shared at the time, and the mysterious link between his galaxy and her planet Earth. But during delivery, and the transfer of all the parts of his soul from her unto him, the symbols of this language spouted and scattered with the cosmic energy that emerged as he came out. Every symbol then disappeared into a cosmic rock, making it impossible for any creature to find and decipher them besides him, even if it should be after a while.
The first galaxy is the time realm from where Farhan's life begins, and the spatial realm for his adventures and experiences. From there, he will set out on the journey to find his cosmic secrets.
In Farhan's second galaxy, a new world lies ahead. He will rummage through its old secrets to unlock his own talisman. A talisman that will change him. In the second galaxy, strange things happen to Farhan. A shiver will run unexpectedly down his body, and his nose will grow and smell strange things happening. He becomes taller and his hair begins to thicken. His eyes widen and he feels an immense strength in his forearms. It is as if the magical island, where he found himself, passed unto him one of its secrets when he ate its bananas, swam in its milk and drank from its river of tea.
Farhan pursues his journey, and as he walks on, he is faced with a sandstorm that sways him left and right and carries him to the Lake of the Secret Soul. There, he feels something strange about the galaxy. His eyes tell him it is a cemetery, but his heart smells the scent of life inside the hole. Suddenly, a strange creature resembling a tiny man leaps in front of him. The small manisa few centimeters tall, at best. His face consists of Aurora reflections and his cheeks are red and clear. His voice is deep and much bigger than his size. He has a huge beard, which comes down to his feet. What will happen between the two?
When Farhan leaves the lake, he will find a man sitting in the place of the guardian of the galaxy. He will then realize that he has reached the Galaxy of the Golden Tree Leaf. Who might that man be? And what is the story behind the leaf?
I will not elaborate further on the plot of the story – on how Farhan meets the love of his life on Facebook, or when he reaches the Galaxy of the Wise Men, where he will search for the secrets of the self, or when he arrives to the Galaxy of the Tree of Eternity.
Farhan came into this world, and with him his emerging cosmic rocks. His mission is to unlock their secrets, as in them lay his greatest secret of all. So will he succeed?

Just back from seeing family in Quebec, which gave me a little break from all those shutters and windows. I'm pleased to report that I'm done painting six pairs of shutters and have repaired and painted six window frames. I still have to strip the hardware to be able to put the shutters back into place though. Here are a few shots showing the re-glazing of the window. My nails are long gone, but the big ring is still there.
Here are before and after shots of two of the windows, repaired and painted, waiting for their respective shutters. Previously, the two colours on the window frame gave the impression of thinness or flimsiness around the glass. I thought using one colour on the frame gave more weight to the window, better suited to the size of the house.

Turning a boring PowerPoint into something incredible
It's possible to get your message across without boring your audience to tears.
EVERY minute of every day on this suffering planet, someone is running a PowerPoint presentation, such is the ubiquity of the computer program that has stirred more criticism and sent more people to sleep than any other creation of the digital age.
Not that PowerPoint should take all the blame. It's just that, being a linear sort of program, heavy with templates and tiresome clipart, it makes it easier for boring people to be stultifying.
Yet PowerPoint has had one impressive consequence. In 1996, when Steve Jobs returned to Apple's helm, he sought to discover why the company was on the brink of bankruptcy and devoid of inspiration.
He called a series of meetings to which platoons of executives and engineers were summoned. Most brought PowerPoint presentations that infuriated the new boss. He banned PowerPoint from the Apple campus, saying: ''I hate the way people use slide presentations instead of thinking. People who know what they're talking about don't need PowerPoint.''
He commanded the creation of Keynote, initially for his own now-legendary Macworld presentations and then for the rejuvenated Macintosh community. It has been available since 2003, became part of the iWork software suite for Macs in 2005 and recently became available on iPads and iPhones. It is now possible to create a Keynote presentation on an iPhone, project it to an auditorium and use either iPhone or iPad as a walk-around monitor as it is delivered.
It is also intriguing that a man with a global reputation in the use of Keynote, whom Apple's iWork team watches and consults as it works on the next update of the application, lives in Melbourne. He is Les Posen, a psychologist whose passion is Keynote. He is also president of iMUG, the Melbourne Macintosh User Group.
At lesposen.wordpress.com is his blog, about Keynote as a tool in the efficient, engaging transfer of information.
Others in this unofficial Keynote advisory group include Garr Reynolds (garrreynolds.com) of Presentation Zen fame and Slide:ology author Nancy Duarte. Both use Keynote but also offer thoughts on PowerPoint, which is also available for the Mac, though not iPhone or iPad.
Posen has run Keynote workshops at Macworld San Francisco since 2008 and will be at next year's Macworld, where once again he will show his audience that Keynote is, in essence, a cinematic storybook with which to engage people and transfer information they not only see but also absorb.
''Steve was always heavily into animation,'' Posen says. ''He wanted colour and high-quality reproduction. He wanted intuitiveness, drag-and-drop simplicity in bringing in video clips and illustrations; no need to download and hit an insert button, as PowerPoint requires.
''The whole intent of Keynote is that you should delight your audience and, thus, engage them. But delighting them does not mean you give them what they want. It's an ethos at Apple that people don't know what they want until you show it to them.
''In Keynote presentation, it might be an apparently irrelevant image that intrigues the audience. They want to know where it will lead. That produces expectation and that's engagement.
''Before the written word, entertainment, erudition and learning came via music, dance and oral storytelling.'' Those, Posen says, are powerful tools for use in Keynote, provided presenters think imaginatively about the results they seek.
''My presentations are pretty much focused on design theory and bring in the psychology of perception, both auditory and visual, and the neuroscience of adult learning,'' he says. For instance, he uses Keynote to make DVDs for his psychology patients to continue their treatment at home.
''I have a patient with a bird phobia, so I made a presentation with small birds and cartoon birds, of which she has no fear,'' he says.
''And I study movies and advertisements; for example, Hitchcock's techniques. He's the master of suspense, another form of engagement.''
Keynote's intuitiveness and drag-and-drop tools make creation of a presentation easier than PowerPoint, Posen says.
''You don't have to download an illustration then use the insert button. You just drag it in, even from a browser.''
So if you need to present and don't wish to be drowned out by the snores of your audience, follow Posen's advice. Think of the story. Avoid endless pages of bullet-pointed text; nobody reads them. Forget pie charts and vow never to use clipart.
Do that and you just might get your message across.

Second, I've been doing a slew of podcasts — one of which is now online. Click to hear me on the latest Fictional Frontiers.
Next, I'll be appearing at C2E2 in Chicago in March — and I've learned I'll be on a Del Rey panel with Paul S. Kemp on Friday afternoon. I'm also signing for Del Rey on Saturday — and will have hours for Dark Horse as well. More details as I have them.
Finally, in advance of getting my production notes for the novel together — and with the final issue of "Aflame" out — I hereby launch the "Ask Me Anything" for the novel and the first comics series. The rules are the same as the pre-release one; I can only speak to what's happened in the novel and comics so far, and won't spoil anything coming up. Please look at the three pre-release answer posts to see if your question's already been answered. You might also see what's been discussed already in the Facebook chat transcript. I'm really looking for some original questions we haven't hit before -- surprise me!
Now, to the contest part — I'll be sending signed copies of both the novel and Aflame #1-5 to two questioners chosen at random. Posting more than one question doesn't increase your chances — and, again, original questions are always appreciated. Please use your name or a distinct username with your post, and check back here on March 1 when I'll announce the winners. Then the winners will need to get in touch with me with their addresses and any personalization instructions.
This covers the novel and the comics, so consider a Spoiler Warning as you read others' questions. You may want to skip to the bottom for the comment pane if you've only read one of them. Onward!

I found this poster by Horn Book at my preschool. One of our assistant teachers was a children's librarian and got this at a library conference. Hope you love it as much as I do. Because, of course, we all want to raise kids who hate books! 🙂
1. Never Read where your children can see you.
2. Put a TV or Computer in every room. Don't neglect the bathrooms and kitchen.
3. Correct Your Child every time she mispronounces a word.
4. Schedule Activities every day after school so your child will never get bored.
5. Once your child can read independently, Throw Out The Picture Books. They're for babies!
6. Don't Play board games together. Too dull.
7. Give little Rewards for reading. Stickers and plastic toys are good. Money is even better.
8. Don't expect your children to enjoy reading. Kids' books are for Teaching vocabulary, proper study habits, and good morals.
9. Buy only 40-Watt Bulbs for your lamps.
10. Under NO circumstances, read your child the same book Over and Over. She heard it once. She should remember it.
11. Never allow your children to listen to Books on Tape, that's cheating.
12. Make sure your kids only read books that are "challenging." Easy Books are a complete waste of time. That goes double for comic books and Mad Magazine.
13. Absolutely, positively No Reading in Bed!

Google, Motorola apparently currently at job on brand-new Nexus phone
Google and Motorola aren't sitting still with the Moto X. Android blogger Taylor Wimberly, who established a good track record with Moto X scoops, writes that Google and Motorola are already hard at work on a new Nexus smartphone that will release in time for the holidays this year. This will mark the first time that Motorola has built a Nexus-branded device, as in the past Google has tapped manufacturers such as HTC, Samsung and LG for its Nexus smartphones. One thing to watch for is whether the new Nexus device will have the same customizable features that the two companies first showed off with the Moto X earlier this... Read More »

If you have never participated before this is how it works:
Pay an upfront registration fee of $7.50. For this fee you will receive a package of thangles and your registration kit. For the next 12 months you will visit the store at any time in the month and purchase one more block kit. Each kit contains the fabric and pattern to make one of the twelve pieced blocks in the quilt for only $1! At the end of the program you will receive the instructions to put the whole quilt available and we will have finishing kits available ... or you can choose your own fabrics.
Yes, you really do get everything you need to make a pieced block each month for only $1, including the fabric and the pattern!
To make the program as convenient as possible, you may visit the shop on any day of the month you choose to pick up your $1 block kit. If you can't come in during a particular month(s) you must purchase the missed block kit(s) for $3 to once again be eligible for the $1 block kits.

Tax Debt and Your Bankruptcy:
Filed under: Taxes
Faced with mounting tax debt, you may have considered filing for bankruptcy. Many kinds of tax debt are fully dischargeable through bankruptcy, but not all are. In addition, an individual must meet certain requirements in order to qualify for discharging tax debt through bankruptcy.
Five Rules to Discharge Tax Debt
Essentially, there are five requirements for your tax debt to be eligible to be discharged in bankruptcy. They are as follows:
- The due date for filing the returns in question is three or more years ago.
- The tax return itself was filed at least two years ago.
- The assessment is over 240 days old.
- The tax return was legitimate and there was no penalty for tax fraud.
- You are not and never have been convicted of tax evasion in the past.
If the income taxes in question meet all five of these requirements, they are eligible to be discharged via a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 filing. As you can see, it is no easy matter to simply file for bankruptcy and have your tax debts magically disappear. In addition, the petitioner must prove that their last four tax returns have been filed with the IRS, and the filing date must be no later than the date of the first creditors' meeting in their bankruptcy case.
Consult a Dallas bankruptcy lawyer to help you determine whether your income tax bills are eligible for discharge, and whether filing for bankruptcy to reorganize or discharge your debts is the smart financial move for you. Every case is different, and everyone's finances are unique.

A good summation of a Protomen experience: Be prepared for gigs to start late. Be prepared for venues to be boiling hot. Be prepared for the band to melt your face clean off. Old reviews are here.
Geekdad: Nerdapalooza 2011 pt. 1: July 21, 2011 "The Protomen were once again excellent, and it's amazing that they are literally a ten-piece band performing live in coherent harmony. They performed both their albums in order starting on Saturday night. The best part of their set though, and probably all the music heard, was their encore Saturday night. They are working on a Queen cover album and broke out with a couple of Queen songs to end the night. They were spot on performances, spiked with passion and energy."
Tor.com July 29, 2011 "The crowd was almost at a fever pitch before a band member in a metal mask, K.I.L.R.O.Y., came out and warmed the crowd up with a semi-theatric introduction. Not that they needed much work: there were both Megaman and Protoman cosplays in the crowd as it was. Then the band came on stage, and I was blown away."
Geekdad: Nerdapalooza 2011: The Protomen Cover Queen August 5, 2011
"The Protomen always play an entertaining show, they are a large band and there is a lot of music coming off the stage. They are also well known for their cover songs and the sheer energy put into those performances. Last year they closed out the second night with "Mr. Roboto" but I was so tired as the show was three hours behind I barely remember it. This year though, they dipped into the Queen catalog to play us "Death on Two Legs" and "Princes of the Universe." These are two songs that deserve a high energy treatment and the crowd absolutely loved it. Especially when Turbo Lover came out in … you know what, I'll leave that surprise for the video."
Nerdzilla: Concert Report August 15, 2011 "It was way different from the PAX show. Smaller, more intimate. At PAX they packed one of the biggest concert halls in Seattle. In OKC they played The Conservatory. That may sound nice to those not familiar with the local music scene, but The Conservatory is basically an un-air conditioned cinderblock and sheet metal shack…"
Christopher Cowan August 19, 2011 "There was one encore, and this time around they did an excellent cover of Queen's, Princes of the Universe. Frankly, I was amazed by how close the Protomen's lead singer was able to sound like Freddie Mercury. I really enjoyed the show once again, my only complaint was with the sound, which was muddy at times. But, that's really the fault of the crappy house P.A. at Emos."
Story By The Throat Aug 31, 2011 "From the very first song, I had tears flowing. I danced and fist-pumped and cried and screamed through the whole gut-wrenching tale, knowing all the while how it would end yet giving myself fully toward feeling its emotions right along with the protagonists. Yes, this is a story of robots and mad scientists, but the Protomen's genius is that they've infused those trappings with a real human core of pain and heartache and hopes raised and hopes crushed. It's dystopia at its finest. It's bleak, yet defiantly hopeful for all that. It's raw and authentic storytelling."
Performer Magazine (Sept 2011 issue) - "When all ten members of the Protomen finally arrived, clad in silver war paint, they asked the Wilmington crowd to pledge their undivided dedication before beginning the concert with How The World Fell Under Darkness. The audience willfully consented and fell under the Protomen's spell of destruction, rampant machine armies and the epic battle between Capcom video game villain and hero, Doctor Wily and Mega Man. There was little room for the Protomen to dance, but that did not stop them from jumping in the audience, playing dueling guitars, sporting a Mega Man gun, and molesting and singing along with ecstatic audience members."

Subcontract Vs. Procurement
Reset it yourself at https://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/jsp/homepage/proposals.jsp - select the Password Reset tab. Or, call (7-4933) or email (email@example.com) Office for Sponsored Research and Award Adminstration and we will reset your password.
A Labor Distribution (LD) should be processed immediately after an error is discovered and for future distributions. Future distributions can be processed via OSCAR once the OSRAA Labor Distribution Form is completed and authorized.
Examples of circumstances that require LD adjustment:
- Delays in funding resulted in charges being initially directed to a non‐sponsored project account
- The Principal Investigator (PI) discovers an error during a monthly account reconciliation review
- The PI or other personnel on the project change their effort and there is a delay in the communication of this change, or it is communicated after the current period payroll cutoff dates
- During the effort certification process, the certifier realizes that payroll does not accurately reflect effort
If a sponsored award does not have an index established in OSU's financial system, labor charges must be posted to a departmental, gift or pending index while awaiting set up of the project index. Under no circumstances should sponsored awards be used as holding accounts for expenses which will subsequently be transferred elsewhere, including to competing or noncompeting continuations of the same project for which the notice of award or new index number has not yet been received.
Pending index accounts are strongly recommended if a delay in award funding or execution is anticipated. The timely set up of a pending index will likely eliminate the need to process labor distributions and other cost transfers.
No. LD forms must be completed for all labor distributions affecting sponsored projects, regardless of the timeframe. However, only certain forms require OSRAA approval.
LD forms that may be processed at the Business Center and directly filed in the Payroll role in Nolij, without OSRAA approval:
- Future and current distributions that do not signify a change to the project scope of work
- Future and current distributions that do not revise key personnel effort by 25% or more for the current project budget period
- A redistribution of labor that is prior to 90 days following the end of the month in which the salary was posted and does not affect a prior fiscal year
LD forms require OSRAA approval in the following instances:
- LD is for a prior fiscal year
- A redistribution of labor that is more than 90 days following the end of the month in which the salary was posted
- Any change in effort, including future distribution, that affects the project scope of work
- Any change in effort that will revise key personnel effort by 25% or more for the current project budget period
Complete the OSRAA Labor Distribution Form through DocuSign and file in the Payroll role in Nolij. OSRAA approval is not required for current or future period LDs unless key personnel effort is revised by 25% or more for the project budget period or the project scope of work is changing. See Labor Distribution Instructions for specific DocuSign guidance.
Complete the OSRAA Labor Distribution Form through DocuSign, adding OSRAA as a Recipient so the DocuSign form routes to OSRAA for approval. Once approved, OSRAA will return the approved LD to the Business Center to process in Banner. See Labor Distribution Instructions for specific DocuSign guidance.
Complete the OSRAA Labor Distribution Form through DocuSign, adding OSRAA as a DocuSign Recipient so the form routes to OSRAA for approval. Also add PayMaster as a DocuSign Recipient so that the form is routed to central payroll for processing, as required for prior year redistributions. See Labor Distribution Instructions for specific DocuSign guidance.
If it is determined that a redistribution of salary is appropriate, the PAR form must be revised, recertified and filed in Nolij. The completed LD form should be attached to the corrected PAR form.
Additionally, sponsored project salary expenses must be supported by a system of internal control which provides reasonable assurance that the charges are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated. Filing the LD form when future labor distributions are updated for new or continuing projects allows OSU to document this internal control system.
Lastly, significant changes to key personnel effort are flagged and captured before they take place, allowing OSU to comply with sponsor prior approval requirements.
A third signature - Dean/Director/Dept. Head – is required if the LD is for a distribution of PI's labor.
A fourth signature – OSRAA - is required if the LD meets the criteria needing OSRAA review and approval.
Obtaining a secondary level of approval for an individual's own effort distribution documents OSU's system of internal control, complying with requisite federal regulation, such as 2 CFR §200.430.
The justification must include sufficient information to describe and document the circumstance of the LD, including why the salary was charged incorrectly to the original index and how the salary directly benefits the receiving project. The new salary distribution must match where the individual worked during the period(s) affected by the redistribution. If the transfer is 90 days or more from the initial payroll charge, include an explanation as to why salary was not transferred in a timely manner.
Also include information as to a change to the scope of work or revision of key personnel effort by 25% or more, if applicable.
Example 1:
Jane Doe's salary was set up on Dr. Bird's nest project N0254A due to a transposition error. The salary should have been set up on Dr. Lyon's jungle project N0524A since that is where Jane Doe worked. The error was not immediately discovered because Dr. Bird has numerous students assigned to N0254A.
Example 2:
Dr. Lyon's salary distribution is being updated from index N0524A to the continuation project index N0524B created for the current budget year.
Example 3:
Dr. Green's salary distribution is being updated from P0123B to P0123C because a new index had to be set up for a change in F&A rate for year three of the grant.
Note that a sponsor may have a more specific definition of key personnel, per the terms and conditions of the award. OSRAA will identify Key Personnel in the PI Letter when the award notification email is distributed.
While it is true that project plans often change and effort may fluctuate over the life of the award, OSU is required to have an established method of monitoring effort changes as they occur, in order to comply with the requirement to request sponsor prior approval for key personnel effort changes of 25% or more.
For example, if effort is reduced more than 25% for the current budget period but will increase in a later period (or has already increased in a previous period), it may not be necessary to request sponsor approval because OSU can document that the overall effort commitment for the individual will meet the promised effort over the life of the project. The PI should still indicate on the LD form that the effort is being reduced 25% or more for the current budget period and provide information about the overall level of effort remaining as committed. OSRAA will review the LD and determine if any action is needed or if the form may simply be filed as documentation.
Per federal regulation (2 CFR §200.308 part c (iii)), OSU must have a process in place to identify and seek prior sponsor approval for a reduction of 25% or more of the original amount of time devoted to the project by key personnel.
Similarly, if key personnel effort is increased 25% or more, OSU needs to confirm that the revision does not signify a change to the scope of work, which also requires prior approval of the sponsor.
If these significant effort changes are only addressed during the quarterly PAR certification review, OSU is not in compliance with the federal prior approval regulation, as PARS are after-the-fact effort confirmation. OSU would then be in the noncompliant position of asking sponsor approval for a significant effort reduction or change to the scope of work after it has already taken place.
Part of OSRAA's review of the LD form is to determine the specific effort requirements under the terms and conditions of the particular sponsored award. This is why it is important to include enough information on the LD form to explain when overall project effort will not be revised by 25% or more, even if the current budget period's effort is significantly changed. Examples below show scenarios where effort is changed but may not rise to the level of requiring sponsor approval.
Note that these are provided only as examples - some sponsors have more restrictive prior approval terms.
Example 1:
Dr. Doyle's effort on S0123A will be reduced by 30% for the months of June-September, 2016 so that he can increase effort on DA247B where the research is season dependent. Dr. Doyle's effort for S0123A will increase again to focus on S0123A project work in October, after the current season. Overall project effort for S0123A will not be reduced by 25% or more and he will fulfill his effort commitment on the award.
Example 2:
Dr. Bennett will be increasing her effort on G0125C by 30% because the graduate student on the project left unexpectedly and the field analysis must be completed. The scope of the project will be unchanged.
Example of minor change in key personnel effort (<25%):
- Proposal indicates 20% effort of key personnel
- After the proposal is awarded, key personnel effort is reduced to 16% Calculation: (20% - 16%) / 20% = 20% change in effort
Example of major change in key personnel effort (>25%):
- Proposal indicates 20% effort of key personnel
- After the proposal is awarded, key personnel effort is reduced to 10% Calculation: (20% - 10%) / 20% = 50% change in effort

This painting is mounted on a wood surround rather than being framed, something which is definitely part of this painting as the energy and life of the piece explodes over the edge of the canvas on to the mount board behind it. The collage of the painting includes photos from my travels through Asia in 2010 and 2011, which so changed my way of thinking about life and art. It does indeed seem to me that in the future many of us will look to the East for the culturral and spiritual inspiration we seem to have lost in the West in favour of greed and personal gain. - Judy Sale

Welcome to DentCPD
Introduction and Aims
DentCPD is a two year European project entitled 'Harmonisation and standardisation of European Dental Schools programs of continuing professional development for graduate dentists'. This project aims to identify agreed essential CPD requirements of an EU graduate dentist and provide guidelines for the management and delivery of high quality CPD by European dental schools.
The project, initiated by the Association for Dental Education in Europe - ADEE is co funded by the EU under the Lifelong Learning Programme, Erasmus sub-programme, 'Modernisation of higher education'. The project which began on October 2010 will end in September 2012.
Project Rationale
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is essential to the maintenance of dentists' knowledge and skills, underpinning safe clinical practice. In the context of free movement, EU-citizens need assurance that dental practitioners have a license to practice that meets EU-standards. There is a need for harmonisation of CPD across the EU, supporting the safe management of patients and promoting mobility of practitioners. Currently, dental CPD is provided by a range of bodies and the quality of courses is variable and unregulated. EU Dental schools have a strategic role to play and this innovative CPD project, which is the first of its kind in the global educational arena, will support the modernisation of their role in postgraduate education.

She said she wanted to be President someday.
Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her: "If you were President, what would be the first thing you would do?"
She replied: "I'd give food to the homeless people."
Her parents beamed with pride.
"Wow... what a worthy goal," I told her. "But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my patio, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food."
She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked: "Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?'
I said: "Welcome to the Republican Party."

You have friends who are liberal democrats? I commend you. They sour my existence. So do the Drug Warriors. I turn down a great many invitations to neighborhood events! Lots of teachers in my hood. I have difficulty hiding my distaste. When the cars go by the house I smile and wave and try not to make eye contact so I don't have to endure endless stupidity!ReplyDelete
Boy Devine Comedy you should have seen the photo at Fox Nation that made a guy threaten the Presidents life. Lisa said I doctored it, but I didn't. The guy who left the photo and address wanted to kill the President for not wearing a tie. BTW, O'Liely was so nice interrupting the President and asking him why do so many people hate him? Ain't nothing like sending out dog whistle to harm the POTUS on Super Bowl Sunday.ReplyDelete
Now we'll take you back to your regularly scheduled race baiting hatred on who's your Klansmans!
oh poor Obama was he just mad that he might be late to his taxpayer Super Bowl Party?ReplyDelete
You have to interrupt him Kid he never answers the questions. He just gives 10 minute speeches after each one.
No liberal friends for me DT that was just a joke.
Although I just got back from lunch with an old friend who thought Olberman didn't like Obama. She though he was from CNN and I told her he was from MSNBC she said she hates that channel it's like they are all hypnotized in a a robotic type of way and I didn't even make a mention of it this was her own observation.
kid, you are an abject ass. But you already knew that.ReplyDelete
Reading this reminded me uv a conservation I had with feller at work around four years ago.ReplyDelete
He wandered in to my office, ok my door is always open, and started to rant. Carl (okay dat's hiz real name and I ain't going to go the route of protecting the innocent cuz we grew up together and he ain't any more than I am) had sent his oldest daughter off to one of dem liberal institutions of higher learnin' (loosely used comes to mind?). She came back for Thanksgiving break and began to expound upon the teachings of a tenured (I won't say it here) about the beauty, the peace, the joy and solitude that redistributin' the wealth around wud bring to the touchy fealy peace on earth we all need to embrace.
Carl blew a gasket. Brittany!!!, maybe her real name or not?, I will ask you one question. You were a straight A student in high school. You gave up alot to succeed to garner a scholarship so you could further yourself with and edgycation. Now you come home to tell me that all the classmates that don't work hard to git good grades, take the time to further themselves for what merits they can bring to the world and now it iz okay to lump all the grades together and split up your scholarship up with the slackers, whether they worked for it or not?
She's truely a bright girl, didn't take her long to say dad, I never thought of it that way. That professor really doesn't make sense.
Carl got a phone call 2 weeks ago that his daughter had just tried to commit suicide. She is fine and at home and doing a lot better now. They talked and she confessed that she knew they were wrong, but the professors were not giving her the opportunity to succeed because she did not think like they do.
There is a moral to this true life story and it might be,,,
If you send your smart childern off to a liberally mental institution they will come back crazy or just like the 'kid'. Full of dead man's bones that pirate way civility, self determination and constructive dialouge.
And yep, one heck of a good joke Lisa. ;-)
My comment was not.
thank you MOW I love that story. That's what happens when liberal professors have their captive audiences. Them liberals have infiltrated our institutions and are "re" educating our kids. If Bill Ayers can become a professor then we know what they are teaching.ReplyDelete
kid, you are an abject ass. But you already knew that,lMAO DT!!!!
Yup, manofwonder. I made the unfortunate decision to attend college when I was 30. By then I had already run for office on the Libertarian ticket, read hundreds of books on the topics of political science and economics by some of the greatest free thinkers of the last couple centuries.ReplyDelete
I didn't have all the answers. Still don't. I can tell you that I had a better handle on the way things work than the namby pamby leftie professors I labored under.
On several occasions I wrote two papers for an assignment. One to please the imbeciles and the other to tear apart their false premise(s). One professor in particular, (an English professor, no less) would tear apart my papers based on the ideology contained therein. She never critiqued my writing style. Ever. I consistently received C's from the wretched woman. I confronted her, of course and she simply told me I was mislead. I went to the department head and finally got the "A" I deserved!
I kept the papers to show my daughter when and if she decides to pollute her own education. Big red circles around entire paragraphs with nitwittery in the margins countering my viewpoint!
In another class the professor divided the students into two groups after we were forced to watch propaganda about "child labor and corporate slavery". I know. I filibustered diligently! By the time I had explained the merits of employing people (even children!) in third world countries no one could disagree with me. Not even the professor. It seems she devised the lesson plan without even knowing there were alternate viewpoints.
Which brings me to my final point. The majority of my professors were 12 years old. They had no experience whatsoever in the real world, having just recently graduated from similar leftist institutions. Erudite rhetoric spewed ad infinitum from every classroom. Drivel passed on from one generation of teachers (not doers) to the next. These people do not exist in the same plane as reality. Perpetual nitwittery perfected!
It's amazing that some kids actually overcome their education!
I forgot to mention the uber hostility that surrounded me. One professor actually held an extracurricular session on the topic of racism. She had the audacity to mention my name when defining what a racist actually is! Apparently wanting to end the failed War on Poverty makes one a racist! I was physically shoved by an African American in the corridor outside the room!ReplyDelete
The professor, by the way, was a self described Marxist. Even the dimwit Socialist head of the department mocked her because she wanted a larger office and he offered to share his but she didn't want to share!
"What kind of Marxist doesn't want to share?" he asked me.
Wow DT thank you for sharing your experience with us. Of course the lefties would have been swooning over your professors.ReplyDelete
Glad to see you stood up for what was "right".
So you ran for office? Looks like the trolls could learn a thing or 2 from you. I could imagine after reading you story they won't have any comments.
Reminds me of David Horowitz's "Indoctrinated U"
Newsflash for Kid: Not everything is about race. Quit bringing it into every conversation.ReplyDelete
Great comments DT. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
You're right SoSueMe it's not al about race. there's Islamaphobia, homophobia,xenophobia and discriminatin of the disabled. The main theme that united the Tea Party is racism. Before the start od WWII people blame oone group for all of Germany's problems, guess what happened? Now minorities are blamed for the housing crisis,immigration, crime, stock market, bailouts,jobs and anything else you got. No more Holocaust,no more Middle Passages, no more Stonewall, no more Zoot Suit riots,no more Rwandas,no more Bosnias,no more Armenia genocides, no more lies.ReplyDelete
Here's something funny for you to look at:https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6921935853428237245&postID=4500391259828167318&isPopup=true#form
Kid, other than being a navie nasty schmuck, what is your purpose in life? What do YOU hope to accomplish with the tone you set? Do you really think anyone is going to take a loose cannon like yourself seriously? Ever? Aside from your circle of friends, that is.ReplyDelete
What is your purpose?
"The main theme that united the Tea Party is racism." -- funny, I've been to quite a few tea parties and haven't seen any of what you've mentioned. But go ahead and believe what some liberal hater posts on the internet, rather than see for yourself.ReplyDelete
It looks like the hate is coming from the left because even as peaceful people gather at the Tea Parties in camaraderie against the ridiculous policies of this inexperienced president, who obviously has an agenda, and not for the best interest of the country, all they have done is beat the drum and falsely accused regular folks of racism and continually stir the s--- pot. These are the same people who got this ideologue elected into the most powerful position in the world when he never had a real job in his life.ReplyDelete
Wake up Kid you've been duped just like the rest of your quislings.

Create this simple and spring themed DIY Custom Framed Art, a perfect Mother's Day craft for less than $5!
Supplies needed:
Picture frame
Scrapbook paper
Wood cut outs
Spray Paint
Hot glue, glue gun
Look at your local thrift store for picture frames as low as .50 cents each. Craft stores such as Hobby Lobby and Michael's will have scrapbook paper such as the piece you see here as well as the wooden cut outs. Cut outs such as these come in a variety of shapes and are around $1 each. In all, you should be able to craft this project for less than $5!
1. Begin by dissembling your frame (discard the glass but keep the backing) and laying it out on newspaper. Apply two coats of paint to the frame and allow it to dry thoroughly.
2. Lay your wooden cut out on newspaper next. Apply two coats of paint to it as well.
3. While your frame and cut out dry, cut your scrapbook paper to fit inside the frame. It will act as backdrop to your cut out.
4. Once the paint on both pieces is dry, start assembling. Do this by placing the paper in the frame. Glue the shape over it directly in the center.
5. Place the backing with the paper and the wooden shape attached back into the frame. Discard the glass as you will not be placing it back into the frame.
Your frame is now ready to be displayed! Hang it just as you would a picture in any space you could use a pop of color.

Okay guys, seriously? Seriously. I cannot handle this rustic lavender southern France wedding. It's just too much pretty for one post! I mean, I have a weakness for anything French, and add to that a beautiful bride, lavender touches, some DIY, and gorgeous film photography by Kat Braman, and you just know that it's going to be just incredible! [Editor's note: This wedding was originally featured on Design Sponge, which can be found here.]
From Kat Braman Photography…
Karen is from Holland and Howard is Cuban but grew up in California. They met while they were both living in Texas. Karen's parents have had a home in the town of Valaurie for about 10 years and the first time Karen took Howard there, they decided that if they both agreed that's where they wanted to get married. They chose the date based on when the lavender and sunflower fields would be in bloom and used those as color inspirations for their wedding day.
This was my first time in southern France and I fell in love with it instantly. The people were incredibly kind and charming, it smelled incredible everywhere, the food was even better than I expected, and the scenery was like something out of a movie. It was truly magical.
If anything, this just solidifies my resolve to live in France someday. Honestly, I don't know that it can get much more beautiful than this, don't you think? To be surrounded by excited family and friends in such a gorgeous place must truly be a magical experience.

If any action be either virtuous or vicious, it is only as a sign of some quality or character. It must depend upon durable principles of the mind, which extend over the whole conduct, and enter into the personal character. Actions themselves, not proceeding from any constant principle, have no influence on love or hatred, pride or humility; and consequently are never considered in morality.
This reflection is self-evident, and deserves to be attended to, as being of the utmost importance in the present subject. We are never to consider any single action in our enquiries concerning the origin of morals; but only the quality or character from which the action proceeded. These alone are durable enough to affect our sentiments concerning the person. Actions are, indeed, better indications of a character than words, or even wishes and sentiments; but it is only so far as they are such indications, that they are attended with love or hatred, praise or blame.
Hume, Treatise 126.96.36.199-5. A very strong claim, and when Hume makes a claim this strong, he means it seriously.

coaching, coaching pointers, emotional needs, gently, goals, happiness, help, pamela stevens, peace, positive, say it like it is, Self-Coach Sunday, support
Prepare people for what you have to say. Avoid the difficult, awkward and even painful things you may say to people by saying it like it is. For example: let someone know that what you want to talk to them about isn't easy for you and may be difficult for them to hear. The point is not to sugar-coat what you say – say exactly what you need to in a way that the other person can hear and understand. It is not about saying something to upset someone – so be gently. Even though you are "saying it like it is," be in a positive and unconditionally constructive state with everything you say.

Vitality medication has been utilized to treat afflictions in Eastern societies for a huge number of years. In any case, does reiki treatment truly work?
The energy of "recuperating hands"
It was a foul winter's day when I went grumping and limping into my first-ever reiki treatment session. My knee hurt from having wound it. My skin tingled from a continuous instance of hives. I had come close, that morning, to kicking my feline. I was in an exemplary January temper, the kind just those of us in northern climes can work ourselves into. Be that as it may, the youthful reiki professional who addressed the entryway of her home center was warm and delicate.
I had caught wind of Angela Toccalino, Reiki Master, from a common companion, just like an especially talented specialist of what is comprehensively called "vitality solution," a field that incorporates Japanese reiki, the Chinese routine with regards to qigong and the Western approach of "mending hands" or "restorative touch."
You may have seen vitality prescription on offer, as it progressively seems to be, at spas. The training is likewise making advances in conventional human services settings, including medicinal workplaces, doctor's facilities and centers. Specialists lay their hands either gently on or simply over individuals' bodies, endeavoring to divert the stream of an imperceptible vitality that science hasn't built up exists.
You'll require in excess of one reiki treatment
The thought (which you practically need to go up against confidence) is that we have a key life compel moving through us, and that vitality – ki or qi or what is called prana in India can in some cases be blocked, bothered or mischannelled.
Vitality medication professionals say they adjust that vitality stream in a way that should advance recuperating, for the most part more than five or six visits. Obviously, you wouldn't utilize it to treat, say, growth, in spite of the fact that individuals have utilized it as a corresponding treatment to help with tension and the reactions of chemo.
In any case, more typically, you would attempt it for the alleviation of minor hurts, agonies and strain cerebral pains; the quieting of skin conditions; the settling of your stomach related framework, any disease that has a solid personality body association.
Medicinal point of view on reiki treatment
Vitality solution has been honed for a large number of years, yet how it works is impossible to say. Maybe it's as basic as a misleading impact: If you accept you're being dealt with, you can rest easy.
From a restorative research viewpoint, this idea of life compel is alluded to as a "putative vitality field," which means it's yet to be demonstrated. There aren't any known strategies to gauge it, and along these lines, the entire territory is regularly pooh-poohed by wellbeing specialists.
Joe Schwarcz, chief of the McGill University Office for Science and Society, says it isn't even hypothetically conceivable to have blocked and unblocked vitality streaming around at the phone level of the body. The idea, Schwarcz says completely, "is sheer lunacy."
In any case, examines have endeavored to look all the more carefully at what's happening, as indicated by the U.S. National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), a division of the National Institutes of Health.
One method for deciding if vitality is some way or another being diverted is to quantify normally happening levels of radiation in the body.
Working with this thought, contemplates refered to by NCCAM have "recognized factually noteworthy reductions in gamma beams radiated from patients amid elective mending sessions." This would appear to recommend that vitality had for sure been drawn out by the experts. (I expect it really is great to lose the greater part of your gamma beams?)

The Graduate Student Government was initiated by a group of students who longed for a student government that would serve the interests of and foster a sense of community among graduate students. By fall 2007, with the formation of a graduate student listserv and a draft of a Constitution, the GSG was well on its way to becoming a recognized Creighton student organization.
In December 2007, two former undergraduate Creighton Student Union members were nominated as President and Vice President. They utilized their student government experience to assist with the implementation of formal organizational structures within the GSG, thus beginning the transition into an active and functioning Creighton student organization.
In need of additional officers and representatives, the GSG founders solicited participation from the graduate school community via word of mouth, informational sessions, and the graduate school listserv. By January 2008, the GSG had a functioning Executive Board and a number of representatives from various programs.
