The announcement that UA professor Albrecht Classen has been named Arizona Professor of the Year comes on the heels of him receiving a number of other national and international awards.
Sitting in his small office stocked wall-to-wall with bookshelves full of textbooks, journals and critical editions of medieval and early modern texts, University of Arizona professor Albrecht Classen was reading a letter from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.
Classen, a University Distinguished Professor in the German studies  department, had recently learned that he was named one of the 2012 State Professors of the Year , an honor that has gone to some of the nation's most outstanding faculty members since 1981.
"It really is the ultimate reward," said Classen , also the undergraduate adviser for his department. "It's very competitive, and you don't know how many people there are going for it."
The Carnegie honor was one in a list of recent honors and awards Classen has received either for his teaching or for his contributions to his field.
The German Academic Exchange Service , a national agency based in Germany that supports international academic cooperation, named Classen one of the 29 DAAD Research Ambassadors for the 2012-13 academic year. As a DAAD Research Ambassador, Classen will serve as a liaison for the organization and also participate in a seminar to be held later in the year.
Also, Classen learned he had been named the recipient of the 2012 national American Association of Teachers of German, or AATG , Friend of German Award, an honor that goes to those who show exemplary leadership in the advocacy of Germany and German language education.
"He is a wonderful advocate of students being majors and minors of German studies, and he also helps them to realize how beneficial this can be for them," said Mary E. Wildner-Bassett, College of Humanities dean. "We are very appreciative of him. He's a great asset to our university."
Then Classen received word that he is now an honorary member of the Golden Key International Honor Society.
"It is very rare, if not utterly unique, that one person has been recognized for both sides of our talent with top awards for scholarship and teaching," said Wildner-Bassett, who shares a home department with Classen.
"The basis for the professoriate to create knowledge through research and scholarship and to pass it on through our teaching, and that is what he is being recognized for now," Wildner-Bassett said.
Classen carries a docket full of publications and honors. He was even offered as a clue in an episode of "Jeopardy" earlier this year.
"He is very good about convincing students about the fascination of other times and places, which is a wonderful thing and what we are all about in the humanities, among other things," Wildner-Bassett said.
Most recently, Classen published two new books: a translation of letters written by Philip Segesser, a Swiss Jesuit missionary in Sonora, Mexico during the 18th century and "Rural Space in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age," a volume that is part of a long-standing series Classen has edited.
The translation of Segesser's letters offer a unique view into the life of a missionary during a time when personal letters were less common – and, at times barred – than were official logs and journals about logistical matters.
"He wrote very long sentences using antiquated words, and with the earlier transcriptions, we were guessing a lot," said Classen, who is about to publish a more detailed analysis of Segesser's writings and those by his contemporary German Jesuit missionaries in Sonora.
But in the process, a more intimate view of Segesser's life is offered in which, at different times, he describes wars between indigenous populations and settlers; he describes a time when he became very ill and how indigenous people were able to help him to become well again; also, he wrote to his mother asking for recipes and to his brother requesting tools.
"In my opinion, I got a goldmine. His letters are very insightful. Even for a psychologist, it is very interesting reading about a man who was very devout, very submissive and very religious," Classen said.
Having a stronger interpretation of Segesser's life, and those around him centuries ago, helps provide a clearer picture of the distant past, Classen said.
His second book, published this past summer, relates to rural space. Classen explains how rural populations conceived of the natural environment and what divisions existed between the peasant and aristocratic classes that was evident in the use of space. For his investigations, Classen relied upon literary and artistic works popular in the Middle Ages.
In particular, he found that the social class divisions were not as stark as expected. "Most social markers weren't so obvious," he said, adding that individuals of disparate social class often lived in close quarters.
He also found that the natural environment served as a conduit for "finding true love," as domestic spaces were more readily monitored and controlled, which greatly informs not only on the issue of space, but interpersonal interactions and the role of family life.
"We have lots of information available, but most medieval research is on the church, courts, the university or town," Classen said. "We can learn about humanity, how the nobles chose to entertain themselves and the role of relationships and gender norms, and thus we can create a paradigm shift in research for the next generation of people who will be studying the Middle Ages."
For his contributions to the field and for his strengths in teaching, Classen has received numerous awards.
His recent honors and awards include: the Henry & Phyllis Koffler Prize for Outstanding Accomplishments in Research, Scholarship and Creative Activity; the UA Honors College 's Five Star Faculty Award; the Distinguished Faculty Service to the College of Humanities; AATG's Outstanding German Educator Award; the Distinguished Undergraduate Advising/Mentor Award; and the most prestigious Bundesverdienstkreuz am Band (Order of Merit) from the Federal Republic of Germany.
"Honestly, I think it's his enthusiasm and his love for his topics," Wildner-Bassett said about Classen's continued recognition. "His work is still exciting and interesting and fun to him, and he makes it relevant to people in the 21st century, even though he may be talking about a medieval poet."
Halil R. Fried, who now lives in Boston, recently thanked Classen for his mentoring throughout his undergraduate years, noting that much of what he was able to accomplish would not have been possible without Classen's support.
"I believe I will get a master's degree in elementary education," Fried said, noting that she taught a German class at Sam Hughes Elementary while still in Tucson.
Molly Gebler also decided to pursue German studies because of Classen, having met him during her sophomore year during a German class.
"No lie, after that first encounter I wanted to sign up," said Gebler, a UA senior majoring in German studies. "His energy was just amazing. He was ecstatic. And I don't think I have ever learned more in a class and, the funny thing is that medieval studies wasn't really my thing."
During a summer study abroad trip Classen led in Europe, Gebler said she engaged in one of the most profound academic discussions she has yet to experience in life – one around fundamental issues of religion.
"He almost teared up because we were all so excited about the topic," Gebler said.
Essentially, Classen was and has been teaching students how to apply medieval solutions to modern-day problems, especially related to construction of human relations, cultural interactions and artistic expression.
Likewise, he informs students about and involves them in activities in which they are encourage to think more critically about what they understand about the world and themselves.
Also, he demonstrates to his students and others something that many have said he does well: No matter where your academic, social or professional passions reside, make sure they drive your interactions and decisions in life.
"The reason why I was so enthralled with him is that what I have learned has gone so far beyond the classroom and applies to every aspect of our lives," Gebler said. "He's an amazing person, and I feel very fortunate to know him."

Rinse the tomatoes under cold water. Cut into quarters and then halve once more.
Heat the olive oil in a large, deep sided saucepan.
Fry the garlic for several minutes over a medium heat, being careful not to burn it.
Add all the tomatoes and sauté for about ten minutes until the juices are released and the tomatoes are softened.
Stir through the sundried tomatoes, oregano and sugar. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Pour in the stock and simmer on a medium high heat without a lid for about an hour. You want the liquid to reduce quite substantially so leaving the lid off is key. Depending on the water content of the tomatoes, you might need to reduce it down for a further 15-20 minutes.
Add the basil and cook for another minute or two. Transfer the soup to a blender and blitz until smooth.
For an extra smooth consistency, strain the soup through a sieve. Return the soup to the pot and heat through. Correct the seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Drizzle with cream, extra virgin olive oil and a few sprigs of basil.

Join the Office of Research and Economic Development for "Who Is Keeping Your Information Secure? And How?" on Nov. 6 from 2-3:30 p.m. in the Bost Extension Center theater. During the session, a panel of Mississippi State information security experts will speak to the most critical issues and practices of information security today.
In our information-driven economy, keeping data secure is the responsibility of every employee. From guarding against social engineering attacks to creating an effective incident response plan, everyone in your organization must take part in keeping information secure. A recent study by the Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) cited human error as the most common cause of information security breaches, with some 80 percent of respondents believing this human error was caused by a lack of security knowledge, training or failure to follow security procedures.
MSU's Tommy Morris, Tom Ritter, Trey Breckenridge and Dave Dampier will lead a discussion that will provide information security awareness and cybersecurity awareness that can significantly reduce not only the odds of your college or department experiencing a serious information security breach, but can also help minimize negative impact should a breach occur.
Please register for this free seminar at www.tfaforms.com/336417.
If you have any questions about the session, please contact Lynn Taylor at 662-325-3168 or ltaylor@research.msstate.edu.

Q: What is the base measure in measure theory? I see the term "base measure" used frequently about measures. I do not completely get what that exactly means:
Some examples are:

Let $\cal F$ be the space of all probability density functions with
  respect to a base measure $\nu$

What is the base measure?
Sometimes when a probabilistic function is integrated,

the dx is called a base measure.
   $$\int_{\cal X}  ....  dx$$

Can someone explain in simple words or refer me to a simple reference to read about "base measures".

A: When I see the word "base measure", the first thing that comes to me is the Radon-Nikodym theorem (and the Radon-Nikodym derivative).
The Radon-Nikodym theorem states the following.

Consider a measurable space $(X,\Sigma )$ on which two $\sigma$-finite measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ are defined. If $\nu$ is absolutely continuous with respect to $\mu$ (i.e., $\mu (A) = 0$ implies $\nu (A) = 0$ for all measurable $A \subseteq X$), then there exists a $\Sigma$-measurable function $f:X \rightarrow [0,\infty )$, such that for any measurable set $ A \subseteq X$, $$ \nu (A)=\int _{A}f\,d\mu.  $$

In addition, if two functions $f_1$ and $f_2$ satisfies the same property, then $$\mu ( \cup_{A \subseteq X, A\text{ measurable} } \{ A : f_1 (A) \neq f_2 (A) \} ) = 0.$$
In words, we say such $f$ is $\mu$-almost everywhere unique. Because of this uniqueness one often write $ f = \frac{ d \nu }{ d \mu } $ (provided that $\nu$ is absolutely continuous with respect to $\mu$). In such cases, people often call $\mu$ the base measure.
For me (who mostly works in Euclidean spaces and rarely does research in measure theory), I think of the Lebesgue measure and assume that a density function can be properly written out when I hear the word base measure.

A: The word "base" doesn't have any particular mathematical significance here, and could be omitted without changing the mathematical meaning.  It doesn't signify that the measure has any particular mathematical properties.  It's just being used in its common English sense of "something to build on" or "foundation", and serves as a hint that this measure is going to be used to build other stuff (i.e. densities) on top of.
So the word isn't really meant to formally affect the math itself, but rather informally, to help guide the reader's intuition about the math.

iOS devices' batteries are important, especially in case of iPhone, because it's not easy to change it by yourself like Samsung'e cell phones. To change a weak battery you've to open case of your iPhone and this process can take hours to complete; so it's better to keep your battery healthy.
Very first factor that pushes a battery towards death is over charging. All gadgets makers recommend that one shouldn't charge a device when its battery is fully charged, because of over charging, battery's life goes down rapidly. ChargingHelperPlus helps you to know that how much time your battery will take to have a complete charge, when it's on charging. Directly on lockscreen you'll get notification of battery's remaining charging time, and when your iDevice's battery is full, ChargingHelperPlus will let you know via a alert.
Just like its name BluePill is also interesting, because it helps you to embed more features in your Facebook messenger. When you open Facebook messenger, VOIP service automatically starts running in background that consumes your battery life, simply turn it off to get long lasting battery. BluePill provides better search experience with graphs search feature, it helps you to search any person, page and other things on Facebook seamlessly.
The thing I hate is the uploading limit, I have unrestricted it on my WhatsApp with a simple tweak but on Facebook messenger BluePill breaks this six pictures limit and lets you upload unlimited photos.
When your friend sends you a message on Facebook, he knows that you've read his message with the help of "Seen" read receipts. You can simply turn this read receipt feature off in Facebook messenger via BluePill. Its stealth mode is just like WhatsApp+ tweak that helps you to remove read receipts, typing… blurb and online status.
You can use your Facebook messenger in full screen mode.
Turn off word predictor while typing messages and status.
With QuickFolders tweak you can better manage your apps under folders. QuickFolders animates your folder opening gesture astonishingly, you can turn it on via configuration of this tweak. Furthermore, you can choose your favorite gesture to open folders via this QuickFolders tweak.
All of the above tweaks are more than awesome, but I personally love BluePill and ChargingHelperPlus more because they are providing features according to users' needs.

Hospital and police records
Hospital records contain patient information routinely collected through hospital facilities as part of the patient care process. Information available through these records includes patient demographic data, general health data, details surrounding patient presentation to hospital, treatment provided, length of stay and observed health outcomes. Hospital records specifically documenting drowning cases can be extracted and analysed. Here, the sociodemographic characteristics of patients and information on the context of drowning events can be used to identify factors and activities associated with an increased risk of drowning.
If sufficiently detailed data is available, further analysis can track patterns of drowning hospitalisations within different population subgroups, and investigate patient outcomes, such as length of hospital stay or secondary complications resulting from the initial drowning event. Hospital records may be hand written notes, paper forms, part of an electronic database or a combination of all three.
The methods and coding structures used to document health data within hospital records may differ between hospitals, health districts and countries. An example of a standardised international coding system for health data is the World Health Organisation's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD). Through this system, it is possible to assign predefined codes to describe the cause and context of a drowning event. Examples include 'W67', indicating accidental drowning and submersion while in swimming-pool, or 'V92', indicating drowning and submersion due to fall off watercraft. If a non-standardised coding system is used, it may be necessary to develop collaborative relationships with hospital stakeholders to interpret their record keeping systems.
Hospitals act as data custodians, or gatekeepers, of hospital record data. Therefore, permission to review hospital records will likely need to be sought from the hospital itself as well as an external ethics committee. If the data is de-identified or non-identifiable and no linking of data will occur, the request process may be simpler and faster.
Police records contain information on crimes and incidents that have been reported to the police. Police may be called when an accident or death occurs, or may approach a crime scene to collect evidence and assist individuals involved. Primarily, police reports will capture drowning cases that are anticipated to be homicidal or suicidal in nature, with many accidental drowning cases not necessitating police investigation. Content from police records may borrow from other registries, such as a cause of death registry, to provide more detailed information in reports. In Australia for example, a complete coronial record available on the online National Coronial Information System to approved users, will feature a coronial finding, an autopsy report, a toxicology report and a police report.
Police records are usually highly sensitive. Access to, and extraction of data from them, may be difficult and will most likely require high-level authorisations and external ethical approval. Similar to hospital records, primary data collection will likely be recorded in a number of formats including hand written notes, paper forms and electronic databases. The depth and type of information collected by police can vary greatly between areas.
Population-level data is available.
Data is routinely collected through both hospital and police records.
A cost-effective alternative to performing primary data collection.
In many settings, information is available from long periods of time, allowing for retrospective review to assess patterns or trends.
Many variables are included in both hospital records and police records, making them a rich source of information.
Hospital data can be used to examine fatal and non-fatal drowning.
There is potential for large volumes of un-related data to be incidentally included in review and analysis.
It can be time consuming to review and analyse, particularly if records are paper-based.
Extraction of data will require authorisation by data custodians and external ethical approval.
It is difficult to analyse a combination of handwritten notes, paper forms and electronic records.
Hospitals and police stations may use different data collection and coding systems, making data difficult to compare between sites.
A drowning event will not be recorded if an individual does not present to hospital. This can happen if the drowning injury is not considered to be severe enough to require treatment, if a drowning death occurs in a community setting at the time of the drowning event, or if an individual is unable to access to a hospital for financial reasons. This leads to an underreporting of drowning cases in hospitalisation records.
A drowning event will not be recorded if it is not reported to the police, leading to an underreporting of cases in police records.
Information captured as 'open text' through data sources is likely to be non-standardized and difficult to analyse.
Ethics processes may take time and be costly.
If outcome is not reported, it may be difficult to count both fatal and non-fatal drowning. It can be difficult to quantify re-admissions and deaths from conditions related to an initial non-fatal drowning incident (for example, infections).
Hospital data can be used to analyse the incidence, trends and outcomes of drowning, yet only captures severe drowning cases which require treatment. Police records will likely contain information on when and how a drowning incident has occurred, particularly if the circumstances of death are unclear. Although both hospital and police databases are likely to be large, it is not guaranteed that the data collected will be of high quality or will accurately represent the local population. Quality and coverage of hospital and police data from low income settings may be particularly low due to lower investment into data collection systems.
If the volume of information seems overwhelming, consider selecting a smaller number of hospital sites or police record systems to review. Ensure to first search the existing literature prior to conducting an analysis as previous, large-scale analyses of similar records may have already been completed.

Q: probability of having a cycle in a bipartite graph Consider a bipartite graph with |L|=|R|=n.
Assume we have $c\cdot n$ random edges between vertices in L and vertices in R, where $c>1/2$.
I want to show that this graph would have a cycle with high probability.

A: Have you considered simulating it, and just counting the occurences?
Also, is your area of interest where $c \to 1/2$ or for special (low/high) $n$?
I also assume you have undirected graphs, and so make things easier.
I'd also consider first calculating the probability of having 4-cycles first. $(l_1,r_1,l_2,r_2,l_1)$
Then you can use calculations/estimates on pairs in L and pairs in R that would have both edges.
My first estimate would be that the 4-cycle I mentioned has all four edges with probability $c^4$, and the chance of missing this on all combinations of $l_1,r_2,l_3,r_4$ would be
$$ C = {n\choose 2}^2$$
$$ 1 - (1-c^4) ^ C $$
Which indeed is very small if you'd take let's say $n = 10$
With $n=10$ you have 2025 possible combinations, and although each combination only has 1/16 chance to be a cycle, this adds up to a very big chance.

Bioflavonoid - Uses, Benefits, Sources and Dosage
Bioflavonoid is also known as the vitamin P. Bioflavonoid is described as group of phytonutrients found in plants and also one of most versatile nutrients which offer the all over health of body. These are the complex compounds closely associated with the vitamin C and found in variety of plants particularly in citrus fruits. It has been studied that bioflavonoid aids in protecting the vitamin C from oxidation which allows the body to obtain more benefits from vitamin C. There are various herbs who exhibit the medicinal properties because they are also packed with bioflavonoid. Bioflavonoid is considered as the strong antioxidants as these enhance the effectiveness of vitamin c. These help to protect the collagen from the blockage of collagenase (the collagen destroying enzyme). These also help to strengthen the blood vessels and improves the oxygen supply to cells.
Bioflavonoid is classified into seven major types:
Flavonones
Catechins
Health Benefits of Bioflavonoid
Bioflavonoid is packed with anti-aging, anti-mutagenic, anti-carcinogenic properties and also support the good health of circulatory system.
Health Benefits of Bioflavonoid are Classified into two Categories:-
1. Health-promoting effects
The health-promoting effects of bioflavonoid include improved eyesight, good cardiovascular health and improved structure of connective tissues, good skin health and healthy immune system.
2. Therapeutic effects
Bioflavonoid play an important role in the treatment and prevention of diseases, which are listed below:-
Muscular Degeneration
Sources of Bioflavonoids
These are found in the in fruits, vegetables and some beverages, which are made from plants.
Flavonols are found in cabbage, onion, broccoli, lettuce, tomato, apple, grapes, berries and tea.
Flavones found in parsley and celery.
Flavanones are commonly found in the citrus fruits like oranges, sweet lime and amla etc.
Isoflavones found in soy beans and soy products.
Catechins are commonly found in tea, chocolate, red wine, apples, and berries.
Anthocyanidins are found in red cabbage, black currant, red cabbage, plum, blue Congo, lingonberry, red currant and cranberry.
Neoflavonoids are obtained from the plants like Dalbergia nitidula and Calophyllum inophyllum.
Chalcones are found in Angelica keiskei plant and Ashitaba tea.
Proanthocyanidins - Commonly found in apples, pine bark, cinnamon, grape seed, cocoa, grape skin, and red wines. To a lesser degree; bilberry, cranberry, black currant, green and black tea.
Bioflavonoid Side Effects
There are very less chances of side effects of bioflavonoid. But one can have these signs of allergy like shortness of breath, hives and swelling on face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Deficiency of Bioflavonoid
Bioflavonoid deficiency is similar to vitamin deficiency. Symptoms may include the bruising very faster and hemorrhage. Inflammation associated with arthritis may also occur in the Bioflavonoid deficiency. Diabetes, asthma, allergies and nutrients deficiencies in the pregnant and breast feeding women also occur due to the bioflavonoid deficiency.

This thesis studies the causal e§ects of foreign ownership on plant employment of varying degrees of FDI. I not only examine the employment e§ects of FDI ináows by using standard deÖnition of FDI as is standard in the literature, but I also look into the possible di§erentiale e§ects of di§erent levels of FDI and identify these e§ects at the 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100 percent foreign ownership in plants, respectively. These e§ects are tested using plant-level data from Annual Manufacturing Industry Statistics on the Turkish Manufacturing industry. To control for the possible selection-bias, a di§erence-in-di§erences approach is combined with propensity score matching. The advantage of this method is that it allows observing the divergence in the paths of employment between the treated plants and the matched control plants. It is shown that foreign acquisition in Turkish manufacturing industry leads to a signiÖcant increase in employment in the acquired plants when the standard deÖnition of FDI is used. The positive and statistically signiÖcant e§ects become visible in the acquisition year and continue in the subsequent periods. I Önd that after three years, the acquired plants outperform the control group in terms of employment by 21 percentage points. The signiÖcant positive employment e§ects are also observed when I only focus on the private establishments, excluding public establishments from the sample. The analysis also suggests that the positive employment e§ects occur together with increases in output and productivity. However, it is observed that as the dominance of foreign partners increases in foreign ownership percentages the employment e§ects of FDI ináows begin to decrease.
