Data Stewardship Defined: Data Mining Minds to Serve
By Alice Linahan Oct. 2019
As parents, teachers, schools and public entities are wrestling with the fact that our privacy and our children's privacy is being exploited not only by EdTech, but by the public/private partnerships as seen here and quoted below; I believe it is important to listen to those who've been in this battle to protect America's children and expose the truth, please read below Diana Anderson's insight and wisdom.
"A Federal Trade Commission official suggested Monday that the agency is considering changing children's privacy rules in ways that could empower YouTube to collect data from users who watch videos aimed at children.
"We have heard that the inability to engage in interest-based advertising on YouTube is going to hurt content creators," Andrew Smith, head of the FTC's Consumer Protection Bureau, said Monday at the annual conference of the National Advertising Division, a unit administered by the Better Business Bureau.
Smith added that the agency is "worried" that Google's YouTube will become a "desert of crap" if content creators can't monetize their material with behaviorally targeted ads.
On October 7, the FTC will hold a workshop on potential revisions to the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act rules. Smith said he anticipates revisions to the rules as a result of the workshop."
Below was written by Diana Anderson:
Data Mining Minds to Serve Part 1
The authoritative rhetoric states that collecting data on student performance is purposed to increase student performance and determine proper placement in a career. Reasoning, however, dictates that the basis in mining data longitudinally, from infancy throughout one's life span is nothing less than Big Brother monitorizing your life. … New paradigms of rights and privileges are continually redrawn on an etch e sketch, meanwhile, students' attitudes, values, and beliefs are collected and stored in restricted databases. What other reason would there be to gather politically correct and affective data, if not to grant more than skills for a job?
The underlying purpose in data mining is revealed in a confessional report released in 1973 on Data Stewardship; Managing Personally Identifiable Information in Electronic Student Education Records1. The US Secretary's Advisory Committee pronounced the need "to maintain data in the system with such accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and pertinence as is necessary to assure accuracy and fairness in any determination relating to an individual's qualifications, character, rights, opportunities, or benefits that may be made on the basis of such data."
Government documents are written in legalese, with detailed scrutiny, so let us quote the above once more, eliminating three of the five rewards which would naturally pertain to education and/or job training.
"Maintain data in the system with such accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and pertinence as is necessary to assure accuracy and fairness in any determination relating to an individual's rights or benefits that may be made on the basis of such data".
It is explicit, two reasons for the basis in creating a database is to determine an individual's rights and benefits. Are they speaking of the right to work or the benefit of a secure future? Qualifications would be inclusive of securing a diploma and/or training for a career or trade. Character Counts', as they say, and we all agree that a range of opportunities expands for people who persevere. The report goes on to list the Personally Identifiable Information that needs to be protected, such as demographic information on the student and family members and a personal identifier (i.e. Social Security Number).
http://nces.ed.gov/pubs2011/2011602.pdf
"The PPRA requires written parental consent before a minor student can be required to participate in any survey, analysis, or evaluation funded by the U. S. Department of Education." The Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment was passed due to the concern in mining indirect identifiers';
Setting aside the nullifying actions by Secretary Arne Duncan regarding the Federal Education Rights and Privacy Act,
Will the Personally Identifiable Information (PII) obtained by the longitudinal database determine your child's rights in the future? Listed in the report
http://www2.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/ppra/index.html
Political affiliations or beliefs of the student or parent.
Mental and psychological problems of the student or the student's family.
Sex behavior or attitudes.
Illegal, anti-social, self-incriminating and demeaning behavior.
Critical appraisals of other individuals with whom respondents have close family relationships.
There is no right to the pupil or public privacy! Americans gave them up, sharing their private lives on television and with social media. The public was willingly conditioned on ceding precious rights for government benefits. Hence, given the non-congressional changes in the FERPA, it goes to show that government-granted rights can be easily dismissed at the wave of a hand. Parents have no rights if their children are in government schools.
Progressive school reformers have forged a Learning Society in cloakrooms, board rooms, and private homes for decades. It was only when the infrastructure and the Platonic guardians were firmly established, that the 'Idea' was made public. Ironically, the beastly internet has provided the exposure of truths posted by people, untouched by the lure of guardian-speak.
The Chief State School Officers Institute released a public relations pamphlet in 1974, affirming the rights of local control of education. They lied. With the assistance of 50 Chief State School officials and some futuristic speakers, they crafted recommendations for the federal Office of Education that same year. Four decades of restructuring society and schools, led by the CCSSO brought Man, Education and Society in the Year 2000 to fruition. The recommendations:
1) There can be no such thing as "value-free" education. . . Skills listed are targeted for entrance into a centrally planned workforce.
2) Values that guide behavior as it relates to a changing environment must be understood.
3) Educational credit should be available to students for activities related to their studies in work, volunteer action, community participation, school volunteer programs . . .
4) Perhaps, at all times a third of our youth ought to be learning outside the formal school in planned experiences.
5) Our society presently does not have a method for helping our young make the transition to adulthood, joining the workforce. Can education be seen as relevant by our young if it assumes no responsibility for helping them find a place in our society?
Two men served under President Nixon's administration, as Secretary of Health Education and Welfare. Elliot Richardson, who wrote the forward to the 1973 report and Caspar Weinberger, whose efforts in this role would coincide with using data to determine a student's cog in the wheels of a centrally planned workforce. (Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Evaluation Systems, 1973) The CSSO's recommendations of 1974 were handed off to the Secretary's Commission on Achieving the Necessary Skills, who developed the SCANS 4 report, released in 1992. It is a legalized blueprint, merging education and labor for a soviet styled workforce. People in the 21st Century are human capital, resources for the global state.
The Chief State School Officers in 1974, envisioned Traveling Through Time3 as their recommendations were researched and stored in a data cloud, a digitized means to place children into society. The National Forum on Education Statistics outlines the "basic and expanded Longitudinal (LSD) features that go beyond formal schooling". It captures data reaped from "Early childhood education, postsecondary and workforce". A student's Unique Identifier number "remains with, a student throughout his or her P-12 career and beyond". Expanded features include assessment data, data sharing with Social Services and geographic information system, plus "other data" (pg.14). The other data' meaning the character counts data, the affective data, the value-based data, those changeable values that children have demonstrated conditioned on their environment. Those 21st Century values count heavily towards determining rewards for serving society.
This all leads us to a new question. Is attitude and value formation a function of authorities or merely the changes in the roles teachers take on? The imposition of the National Common Core State Standards and the emphasis on teaching critical thinking skills work to deflate traditional values and substitute with a politically correct non-ideological world view. Possibly new rights forthcoming would include owning a cell phone, access to the internet, or traveling abroad. Only time will tell.

Not to worry, this does not mean that there are not any alternative treatments you could look into. Consult with your medical aesthetician or physician to explore a variety of other options.
Once you have determined that you are an eligible candidate, you'll want to know the basics. If you are only treating parts of your face with laser skin resurfacing in Ottawa, you should expect the treatment to last from 30 to 45 minutes. However, if you're treating your entire face, expect the session to last closer to an hour and half. Make sure that you have booked the appropriate amount of time off for your laser skin resurfacing in Ottawa.
Since pixel laser skin resurfacing involves the use of laser pulses down to the dermal level of your skin, you may feel a sunburned, itchy sensation following the treatment, and you may look flushed and experience slight swelling. These side effects can last anywhere from 12 to 72 hours. Some people with sensitive skin types may expect these effects to last up to a week. Needless to say, your skin will be sensitive during the healing period, which means that you need to protect your skin with UVA/UVB sun protection and follow proper instructions from your medical aesthetician. An important factor to take into consideration is to avoid taking any medications that will make your skin sensitive to light, including acne medications, steroids and certain antibiotics. It is recommended to avoid these medications up to two weeks prior to, and two weeks post treatment for the best results and maximum comfort.
Please bear in mind that the most photo-sensitizing medication is Accutane, a powerful treatment used to combat severe acne. Use of this particular medication will delay laser skin resurfacing treatments for a period of time. Of course, every individual is unique, so your decision to undergo laser skin resurfacing at an Ottawa clinic in this case should ultimately be made after considering both your medical aesthetician's recommendations, and the amount of time that has passed since you stopped taking Accutane.
If you are currently taking other medication(s) and are not sure if it possesses photosensitizing characteristics, please ask your pharmacist or physician to eliminate any uncertainties about whether it makes your skin light sensitive.
As mentioned above, you may feel slight burning or itchy sensations following treatment. You may also see redness on the treated area as well as potential mild screen-like marks, which could last anywhere from 24 hours to one week, depending on the sensitivity of your skin. You should also expect some swelling and light peeling (this would appear a few days post treatment, where the dead skin cells shed from the surface, allowing new healthy skin to show). But worry not! All of this is normal, and is the skin's natural response when going through the healing process.
To speed the healing process along and to ensure that you feel as comfortable as possible, follow your medical aesthetician's recommendations, which may include the application of Vitamin C antioxidants and hydrating moisturizers to keep your skin healthy. Before you know it, your skin will be looking beautiful and youthful again!


Recently promoted Templeogue must have got a bit of a scare when they arrived in Paric Barróg with the bare 15 to see the 25 man strong Barróg squad warming up, as they never really got going in the game. Naomh Barróg was 6 points up before Templeogue made their first attack. Scores coming from Peter Byrne, Alan McHugh, Cian Gleeson and Anthony Cooke. Barrógs only first half goal opportunity wasn't taken when Peter Byrne's solid kick was saved onto the crossbar. Templeogue made no impact to the score line from play with both their first half points coming from frees. The first half finished 0-9 to 0-2. The lead should have been greater with many Barróg shots falling short into the keeper's hands.
Substitutes Darren Hendrick, Darrack O'Connor, Danny McLoughlin replaced Dylan Lyne, Peter Byrne and Alan McHugh after the break. Barróg had a slower start to the second half which took several attempts before the first score was put on the board. The best move of the game came from possession won by Conor Kelly, kicked down the wing to Cian Gleeson, hand passed over the defenders head to Darrack O'Connor who crossed the ball into the square to be fisted into the net by Danny McLoughlin. Other goal chances came from Darren Hendricks who hit the post, Danny who hit the bar and Graham who hit the side netting. Stephen O'Connor and Sean Dornan replaced Gearoid McHugh and Chris Manton. Barróg defended well throughout leaving Aidan Collins very little to do in nets. The full back line included Ian Fagan who was making his first appearance for the club in 5 years. A great start to the season for John Kilmurrey's team who were denied promotion last year. Hopefully they can continue the season racking up more results similar to this.
Aidan Collins, Chris Manton, Declan White, Ian Fagan, Conor Kelly, Tom Purdy, Anthony Cooke, Laurence Moffat, George Tyndall, Cian Gleeson, Gearoid McHugh, Dylan Lyne, Peter Byrne, Graham Ward, Alan McHugh.
Bradley Lyne, Sean Dornan, Tony Manton, Ronan McGhee, Stephen O'Connor, Ethan Flynn, Darren Hendricks, Darrack O'Connor, Danny McLoughlin ,Ciaran Barrett.


Ever have to pay a fine for a traffic violation or some other misdemeanor? Wonder where all that money goes? Well, the good news is that some of it has recently come back to help victims of crime in the Lake County community.
The Colorado Fifth Judicial District Attorney's Office recently delivered checks to area charitable organizations collected from defendants convicted of mostly low-level traffic offenses and misdemeanors.
The charitable organizations receiving funds were selected through an application process, and all are located within the four counties of the Fifth Judicial District: Clear Creek, Summit, Eagle and Lake.
All organizations provide services that either help prevent crime or that benefit victims of crime. Readers should also keep in mind that the fund balance will change from year to year depending on fines collected through the program.

If you're never quite sure where to start in your study of the Bible, you may want to consider a devotional Bible. The term "to have devotions" means reading a short portion of the Bible (as oppposed to several chapters or a whole book), and then turn it over in your mind, thinking about what it says and what God means for you to learn.
A devotional Bible aids in this process by giving you a little something to start with.
Devotional Bibles are usually aimed toward a particular audience. There are men's devotional Bibles (the ESV God Guy Bible), women's devotional Bibles (NIV Mom's Devotional), Bibles for couples, the single woman, father's, families, teens and so forth.
Devotionals can also focus on an individual's interests or background. You can find one that speaks to college students or to athletes. There is a Bible for military wives and for coach's. Even gardening as you can see here!
The writings of well known authors like Max Lucado and T.D. Jakes are used in devotional Bibles. There's the NIV Recovery Devotional for those working themselves through a 12-step program. And heritage devotionals such as the KJV Sisters in Faith.
Devotional Bible are also available as eBooks.
To choose a devotional Bible first choose the translation you prefer. Does the straightforwardness of an NIV or ESV help you dive right into your studies? Do you prefer the elegant poetry of the KJV? Think of the Word of God itself as the meat, and the devotional portions as the gravy.
The purpose of the devotion is to help you relate to the Bible. As an example, I'm looking at an NIV Women's Devotional Bible, New Testament only. I turn to 1 Corinthians as a book I wish to study. Right at the beginning of the book there's a few sentences telling me what Paul's purpose was in writing this letter, and goals I may want to consider while reading and thinking about it.
Then I see the devotions start with one designated for Monday. It gives me the passage I'm reading for the day, the particular verse I should focus on followed by a short writing by an outside author to meditate (or think) on. These are generally directed to things which may concern me as a woman. Below there are some additional scriptures I can read. This format gives you at least 30 minutes of a guided tour through the scriptures.
There is no lesson planned for the weekend. Rather there is a heading where it says Weekending, and here I am given a little something to reflect on over the next two days, a quote under the heading "restore" and two short verses for Saturday and Sunday under "revive." Since 1 Corinthians is a longish letter, it picks back up on Monday.
Devotional Bibles may not have cross-references, concordances and other study aids embedded into the text, so you may want to get these separately. However, for those who are just starting to study the Bible for themselves, or who tend to pick up their Bibles and not know where to begin, a personal devotional Bible is a great way to get started.


LocationHomeLiving at Arlington PlaceNEW Model Breaks Ground!
We are so excited to introduce to you one of our two new model homes at Arlington Place, The Carolina Cottage. For both of these models, we tried to take what most all of our buyers are asking for, and put their "wish lists" into each home. The Carolina Cottage will be built on homesite 22 and will be full of character and charm, both inside and out. Think 'Coastal Cottage' meets 'Modern Farmhouse'…..not sure that's a thing, but you get the idea. The outside will have a brick foundation with cement fiber board siding, a wrap around porch with a metal roof, landscaped yard, and neat details like board and batten, shutters and lots of windows to let in that Carolina sunshine! Here are the renderings, which in my opinion are not going to do the finished product justice…..
And come on in…now I'm really excited about the inside! We literally tried to thing of everything, how this house would truly function for the family that will be living there….flow, furniture placement, storage, and of course it has to be pretty! When you walk in, you'll have a site line to the back of the house with a large opening cased in wood from the living to the kitchen separated by your granite counter peninsula. The bay of back french doors, that mirrors the shape of the island, lead you out to your spacious screened in porch. Master on the first floor is a must and the 12″x24″ tile we have picked out for the bathrooms is beautiful! Then upstairs are your guest bedrooms with a shared bath. AND an optional bonus room above the attached 2 car, side load garage. Are you in love yet? What if I told you we're selling it, turn-key, for $289,000? Email or call if you're interested in more details, 800-967-7639 or info@arlingtonplace.com.
1 Week, 2 Closings, 4 Homes!

Q: how to update_attributes values in Rails4 I am new to ROR and working currently on Rails4. I have problem in accessing attr_accessible and update_attributes. I want to update a boolean value to true if the check box is checked.
Here goes my code
controller.rb
class TasksController < ApplicationController

before_action :signed_in_user, only: [:edit, :new, :show, :destroy, :index]

def new
    @task =current_user.tasks.new
end

def create
    @task= current_user.tasks.new(params[:task].permit(:name, :taskname ))

    if @task.save
      redirect_to @task
     else
     render 'new'
    end
end

def show
    user = Task.find(params[:id]).user.id
    if user == current_user.id
       @task =current_user.tasks.find(params[:id])
    else
     flash[:notice] = "Access Denied "
      redirect_to tasks_path
    end
   end

  def index

@task=current_user.tasks.all
  end

def edit
 user = Task.find(params[:id]).user.id
 if user == current_user.id
  @task =current_user.tasks.find(params[:id])
 else
  flash[:notice] = "Access Denied "
   redirect_to tasks_path
 end
end
def update
  @task = current_user.tasks.find(params[:id])

   if @task.update(params[:task].permit(:name,:taskname))
  redirect_to @task
  else
  render 'edit'
  end
end

def destroy
 @task = current_user.tasks.find(params[:id])
 @task.destroy

 redirect_to tasks_path
end

def done
 @task = current_user.tasks.find(params[:id])
 if @task.done
  @task.update_attributes(completed: false)
 else
  @task.update_attributes(completed: true)
 end
end

private

def signed_in_user
  redirect_to new_user_registration_path, notice: "Please sign in." unless signed_in?
 end
end

I am getting an error as NoMethodError in Tasks#index
My checkbox code in index is as follows:
index.html.erb

Listing tasks

    <%= link_to 'Add new task', new_task_path, class: "btn btn-primary" %>

       TaskName
        PersonName

     <% @task.each do |task| %>

       <%= check_box_tag "complete_task", task.id, task.done,  :class => 'complete_task'   %> <%= task.taskname%>
         <%= task.name %>

   <%= link_to 'Show', task_path(task) %>
   <%= link_to 'Edit', edit_task_path(task) %>
   <%= link_to 'Destroy', task_path(task), method: :delete, data: { confirm: 'Are you sure?' } %>

  <% end %>

and my js file is:
tasks.js
$(function(){
$(".complete_task").live("change", function(task_id) {
    $.ajax({
        url: "/tasks/done",
        data: "id="+task_id,
        success: function() { alert('completed') }
    });
  });
});

What is the reason for getting NoMethod Error inspite of mentioning the method done in controller.
I also gave my routes properly.
My main concern is how to use strong parameters in Rails4 and update_attributes instantly for boolean to change form true to false and vice versa.
Thank you!!

A: You have to use it like this
@task.update_attribute :completed, false

A: It should be something like
  def done
    @task = current_user.tasks.find(params[:id])
    @task.update_attributes(completed: true)
  end

Or
 def done
    @task = current_user.tasks.find(params[:id])
    @task.update_attribute(:completed, true)

 end

your checkbox should be like
 <% if task.completed == true %>
 <%= check_box_tag "complete_task", task.id, true, :class => 'complete_task'   %>
 <% else %>
 <%= check_box_tag "complete_task", task.id, true, :class => 'not_complete_task'   %>
 <% end %>

$(function(){
 $(".complete_task").live("change", function(task_id) {
   $.ajax({
    url: "/tasks/done",
    data: "id="+task_id,
    success: function() {$(this).css({}); } #style for strike out
    });
  });
 });

Martial arts has been touted as an excellent strategy to enhance physical strength, improve overall health and enhance the well-being of practitioners especially the children and teens. As an after-school, extra-curricular or recreational activity, it remains one of the perennial favorites for families because of the valuable lessons in discipline and self-esteem that are at the core of different programs in this field. Programs such as taekwondo, jujitsu, aikido or other forms teach various strategies to defend yourself and are rooted in values that have to do with developing your sense of self-worth and confidence while building up your inner strength and physical abilities.
Every program provides guiding principles geared toward meeting very specific goals. Learning to live a life driven by discipline means upholding these guiding principles. The ability to follow a well-defined pathway or practice does not happen overnight. It takes careful planning and respect for each of the steps required to move up to the next level. This is how it is done in every program as participants undergo rigorous training and pass certain benchmarks to achieve higher ranks. In most cases, joining these classes entails a personal commitment to abide by the guiding principles as you move from one rank to the next. There is an established pathway to move up the ranks. All aspiring members are made aware of the step-by-step process, defining a route to success for those who are committed to the cause and determined to reach the top rank, which may be a black or red belt, depending on the program.
Martial arts combines the science of movement and physiology and the art of self-control. It may seem like these defensive strategies focus on dominating the situation or gaining masterful control of the opponent or attacker. These programs instill the value of controlling yourself and channeling your inner strength for a reaction in a fully controlled manner. This is the core strategy. Instructors emphasize the need to remain aware of our surroundings at all times, keeping our instincts sharp to read developing situations correctly and responding in an appropriate way. This means developing the ability to control our thoughts, emotions and responses.
Success in this endeavor is marked by progression through the ranks, which can only happen if you stick to the established game plan. There are no shortcuts to success in this field. Additionally, all students must comply with the guiding rules in terms of relationships between master and student, senior students and junior students as well as students and their equals in rank. Complying with rigorous rules teaches discipline and respect for seniority. Students learn the value of adhering to rules because this is part of the evaluation criteria for promotion to a higher rank. When the master maintains a respectful atmosphere in the class, much can be accomplished. This is especially important in multi-age training groups that would most likely include very young children and adult practitioners doing their training side-by-side.
Practitioners who are dedicated to the art of self-defense are constantly practicing in class and at home. You learn new techniques even as you hone what you have already learned. The master or instructor makes sure of this by checking form and movement in group and individual sessions. You will be shown the correct form, how it is achieved and why it has to be done in a certain way. It is up to you to practice on your own to perfect these techniques that will be the building blocks for more advanced techniques. Practitioners of various arts of self-defense emphasize the need for consistent and frequent practice to develop muscle memory, reactive skills and muscle strength to demonstrate the move perfectly. Dedication to practice and learning your forms will help develop the self-control skills needed in life.
When you make the commitment to join one of these self-defense programs, you are making a commitment to abide by the guiding principles, the rules and the instructions of the master or instructor. Experts in this field will require mastery of each skill before proceeding with the next steps and levels. It is a well-planned journey that does not make room for workaround strategies or easy shortcuts, forcing you to focus on the present with an eye on the next goal. It takes a huge amount of self-control to stay the course and remain motivated for the next steps because there are bound to be difficulties and disappointments along the way. However, this is good practice for the rest of life as well. Having confidence in what you are capable of achieving and the self-discipline to remain committed to your goals applies to everything else in life. Your journey as a practitioner and believer in various arts of self-defense prepares you to reach the highest rank in the program, which is a lifetime achievement. The skills and values learned from the practice of these guiding principles are useful in overcoming obstacles in life.
It bears repeating that learning self-discipline at an early age can set you up for success at all stages in life. You become more productive and creative, achieving more of your goals as you move through the inevitable hurdles that are part of every life. Your self-confidence and self-esteem improve with every goal met and every achievement gained. In the process, you build ga reater tolerance for frustration and disappointments, often viewing them as new challenges to meet rather than permanent impediments to progress. You have better control of your emotions, your thoughts and your actions. As a result of being goal-oriented and achievement-focused, two of the most important principles of self-defense programs, you develop a strong work ethic, driving you to greater heights in terms of better health, finances and quality of life.
Learning and practicing martial arts teaches perseverance and integrity while developing your capacity for inner calmness. For practitioners of these ancient arts, the more disciplined you are, the greater your achievements and the better your life becomes.

Interested students must submit a separate application to each program of interest, the MS in Architecture and either the MS IT (SIS) or the MS CS. Each programs' admission committee independently reviews applicants with respect to that degree program.
Students already having matriculated into either the Masters of Architecture, MS IT or MS CS program who desire to add the dual degree option must apply and gain admission to the other program no later than the end of their first year of matriculation.
Admission to the dual degree program requires either a degree in architecture or a related design discipline or an undergraduate degree in computer science, information technology or a related discipline
Students admitted to the program will have the option to work toward the Master of Computer Science or the Master of Information Technology degrees. More information about these degrees can be found on the websites for Computer Science and SIS. Applicants can contact the chair of the admissions committee directly for more information about satisfying the computing admissions requirements.
Software and Information Systems (IT) option:
Students with an undergraduate background in Design should apply to the IT option.
Students applying to the IT option must have one of the following:
A summer programming course (boot camp) offered by CCI, or
An introductory programming course as part of a Bachelor's degree, or
A certificate in a programming course offered online that is approved by the admission committee for the dual degree program.
Computer Science option:
Students applying to the Computer Science option are expected to have knowledge of two higher programming languages, data structures, operating systems or computer architecture, and an additional upper-level computing course. Also, knowledge of calculus, discrete mathematics, and linear algebra is strongly recommended. Work experience at a professional level in the computer industry or satisfactory completion of the Advanced GRE in Computer Science may be substituted for some or all of the subject area admission requirements, subject to review by the joint admissions committee.
Application to UNC Charlotte Graduate Admissions
Submit the following application package to the UNC Charlotte Office of Graduate Admissions:
Online Graduate School Application available from the UNC Charlotte Office of Graduate Admissions and Application Fee.
Official transcripts from all previous college-level institution(s) to UNC Charlotte Office of Graduate Admissions
Official GRE (and TOEFL if applicable) test scores
Statement of Purpose that explains your reasons for wanting to be admitted to the Design + Computation Dual Degree Program- Please include examples of work completed at the intersection of design + computation.
Three recommendations from persons familiar with the applicant's personal and professional qualifications
Review of completed applications for the Master of Science in Architecture/Master of Science in Computer Science or Information Technology Dual Degree program will begin on January 15th. The committee must receive your application to both programs to be considered for financial assistance supported through the Dual Degree Program.
Note: Other programs within the School of Architecture are accredited through the National Architectural Accrediting Board, but the Master of Science in Architecture degree program, because of its research focus, is not an accredited program and can not lead to licensure as a registered architect. Students can also enroll in both the Professional Masters of Architecture and the Design Computation program, please contact the Coordinator for more details on this course of study

The Representation Review in progress seems like a massive missed opportunity to improve the state of local governance.
While there have been accusations of elected representatives trying to protect their positions and entrench the status quo, I'm not sure this is a case of intentionality, ineptitude or indifference — just inaction.
The big failure seems to be missing a proper assessment of the potential to establish community boards across the region. Staff reports touched on the necessity to consider such boards but provided no real information on the benefits nor the cost implications of establishing community boards.
The amount local bodies have to spend on elected representatives is determined by the Remuneration Authority; councils have no say on the total quantum, only the structure within which it is allocated.
A sensible option would double our democracy by cutting the number of councillors in half — have five in the city, two rural — and use the $250,000 in councillor salaries saved to pay three community boards (western rural, northern rural and city) with four to five elected representatives each. That would mean we have 23 elected representatives who would be much more accessible to the communities the councillors claim to be interested in securing decent representation for.
Community boards can have as much or as little decision-making power and delegated budget as the council determines. So while the rural areas would have far more representatives to ensure every corner of the region has a good person easily accessible, city representatives would still be the majority where it counts.
Unlike many other councils around the country, Gisborne District Council chose not to send out a questionnaire to residents about their interactions with elected representatives. Instead they received 18 responses to a survey held online over 17 days, along with two written responses. I'm not sure any meaningful conclusions can be drawn from such a small sample size, but if we combine those with the pre-Christmas public survey that got less than 100 responses, nearly half of responses to date said they don't believe there are enough elected representatives and more than half believe councillors don't address priority issues for our communities.
Of real concern is the fact there is no mention of the Representation Review in the Long Term Plan consultation document "WTF Tairawhiti" nor the full LTP document. WTF is supposed to stand for What's The Future? but could be "Where's The Foresight?" when there was no community boards option put forward by staff and barely a mention of them in council meetings. Instead, following secret workshops where council positions are worked out away from public oversight, we are simply told "Council has considered this matter and believes the ward structure adequately delivers appropriate representation to its communities of interest", with no explanation of what information and rationale such belief is based on.
But with that consultation closing on April 12 (LTP consultation closes a week later), no mention of the Representation Review in the LTP consultation document and barely any information on the council website about the review, this half-pie "consultation" process seems to be a slide included almost as an afterthought in the LTP public presentations, with little opportunity to have a meaningful discussion about the possibilities, pros and cons, and preferred options.
I don't understand why it wasn't included in the LTP booklet, given other strategic decisions requiring separate consultation are included. The council can consider this my complaint about and submission on the Representation Review.
WTF means What The F""".
Yes, community boards and community budgets make much better sense and as you say, are more representative. Representative of all communities. A true consultation process would be of benefit. It's as if we're afraid to hear from people, and exclude the voting population, when we promote online polls and surveys instead of fronting up too. Perfect time to wananga on local government systems and processes throughout Tairawhiti Manu, so we can all make a difference at the next election.

The Carr Family's New Home Is Dedicated in New Orleans East
An Evening With Clive Rainey
New Orleans Area Habitat for Humanity Partners With Second Harvest for Cooking Matters for Adults
Donor Profile: George Kellett & Sons Lumber
Four Students Travel Great Distances to Work with NOAHH
It was 5:30 a.m. and the alarm clock started to blare. Leo Pirrin and Marine L'Haridon crawled out of bed looking forward through sleepy eyes to a long day's work. That day would be dirty and hot, and they had to make it to a NOAHH worksite by 8 a.m.
This was not the first time they traveled this week. Just a few days prior, Leo and Marine traveled from their home of La Rochelle, France, where they study business at the University of La Rochelle, to New Orleans. They found temporary residence at a home in Belle Chase and, thus, had to wake up bright and early to catch a 20-minute car ride with their host family to a bus stop where they would catch the first of two buses to the Ninth Ward.
Leo and Marine's university requires them to devote two to five months to a humanitarian, social or civic program. Consequently, they chose to work with NOAHH in New Orleans. Marine's work with NOAHH in the past influenced her and Leo's decision to work there for the summer.
"When I came here before it was a great experience, and I wanted to do that again," Marine said. "The work is hard, but I feel useful."
Similarly, New Zealander Duncan Parsons and Californian Erica Johnson are working for NOAHH this summer. While Duncan studies business at Duke University, Erica studies media and journalism at UNC-Chapel Hill. They both have the Robertson Scholarship, a joint scholarship between the two colleges, and are giving their time to the New Orleans community this summer.
All four of these students were itching to get their hands dirty.
They spent their first two weeks at a NOAHH home on Ray Street, digging walkways, putting in installation, nailing baseboards and creating wood railings.
Their days were spent in the boiling, humidity-soaked sun, and their afternoons were either spent in that familiar sun or sporadic rains. Regardless of the weather, the students enjoyed working with their hands.
"I like the fact that I can do something and not just give money," Leo said.
One of the best parts of the experience was being able to meet Stephanie Bruer, who will live in the house when they are done. She had a broad smile and was diligent with her work since it was her home that she was working on.
"I remember when Stephanie left and thanked me for my work," Erica said. "I finally made the connection that this would be her house. The railing we built would belong to her."
The volunteers felt grateful for being able to meet the person that would one day own the house they were building. Knowing that someone will one day stand on the deck and walk up the stairs that they built can make all the difference.
Despite the early mornings and dirt-covered endings to their days, this group of college students enjoys personally giving back to the New Orleans community.

And just like that, my plans for Sunday morning took a dramatic turn.
Goats are considered a pest in New Zealand and hunting is seen to be good for the native ecology. Eating the meat is a good use of the carcass.
Although the carcass is actually very lean on a 'wild' animal.
This meat saw I got at the auction came in very handy.
Simon was a master at butchering the meat.
We got a roast on the solar cooker straight away.
Simon had no use for the hides so we decided to return them to the earth via our compost pile.
We layered up plenty of wood shavings and sheep manure to ensure a very hot compost – over 60 degrees Celcius.
The pile is well over one cubic metre and should make a beautiful compost in about three weeks time.
Love it, did the meat have a strong flavour? Back to the earth good use of wild animals. Photos tell a story eh? Can you use the sola oven in winter?


Centerplan Construction Company, embroiled in a bitter lawsuit with the city of Hartford over its firing from the Dunkin' Donuts Park and Downtown North developments, is now blaming a half-dozen subcontractors for construction delays, cost overruns and alleged shoddy work, according to legal filings.
Over the protests of the city's lawyers, Centerplan has successfully brought into the case six companies that were involved in the stadium's design. The third-party defendants include Missouri-based Pendulum Studio, which was the architect of record on the project, as well as The S/L/A/M Collaborative of Glastonbury, Newman Architects of New Haven, BVH Integrated Services of Bloomfield, BETA Group of Hartford, and DTC Engineers of Hamden.
The city hired Centerplan and DoNo Hartford LLC, both controlled by Robert Landino, in early 2015. Delays in stadium construction following a $10 million cost overrun forced the Hartford Yard Goats to play their inaugural season entirely on the road.
The city fired Centerplan and DoNo Hartford LLC in mid-2016, prompting the companies to file a $90 million lawsuit against the city. Performance bond insurer Arch Insurance hired a new contractor to finish the job.
The city filed a counterclaim against Centerplan and DoNo in Oct. 2017, alleging breach of contract, negligence and professional malpractice -- much of it related to alleged defects and deficiencies in the stadium design.
Responding to that countersuit, Centerplan and DoNo have denied that they're liable to the city for any damages suffered as a result of design defects, or that they were negligent with respect to the supervision or management of the design services related to the stadium.
Instead, they argue that damages the city suffered resulted from negligence, carelessness, omissions or other actions by the six design subcontractors. Centerplan and DoNo claim they performed no design work themselves, and that the design was in the exclusive control of Pendulum.
Centerplan and DoNo say the third-party defendants should have to pay any financial damages that may result.
The city of Hartford's attorney, Terence Brunau of Murtha Cullina, argued in a June court filing that Centerplan, not any of the six design firms, forced design changes to the stadium that led to delays and higher costs, including changes to part of the right-field roof, and modifying the design of interior walls and risers.
Brunau called DoNo and Centerplan's attempt to deflect blame "a litigation tactic to divert attention from their own various and well-documented management, supervision, design and construction defects and deficiencies on the project."
He wrote that the companies were "painting the design professionals as the scapegoat for [Centerplan's] and DoNo's own failings."
Despite that objection, Judge Thomas Moukawsher approved the motion to bring new defendants into the suit on July 24, court records show.
The city declined comment for this story. In a statement, S/L/A/M, which was hired by Pendulum to perform a specific scope of work on the project, said it will "vigorously defend any claim that our performance caused damage to either Centerplan or the city."
Attorneys for Pendulum and the other third-party defendants, as well as lawyers for DoNo and Centerplan, did not respond to requests for comment.
Despite the ongoing legal dispute, Ballpark Digest has named Dunkin' Donuts Park the best Double-A ballpark in the country for the past two years in a row.


For a complete renovation and reconfiguration of a historic loft building in San Francisco's South Beach neighborhood, Edmonds + Lee explored the ultimate boundaries of the loft typology. Abandoning traditional notions of enlightenment-era domestic privacy in favor of open transparency, the architects focused on embracing and maximizing the loft's sense of expansiveness and light-filled reach.
The architects worked with the existing structural shell, exposing rusticated brick and heavy timber support beams and contrasting that with the sleek materiality of bookshelves, flooring, chandeliers, and vivacious pops of artwork and furniture. A steel cantilevered stair connects the living areas with the sleeping mezzanine, and details like an exceptionally deep warm-wood soaking tub and a crisp vanity set against a rough brick backdrop help to inject vibrant life into the minimal space.
Frameless glass guardrails provided safety without being visually antagonistic on the sleeping mezzanine, while a custom (and oversized) sheet of ultra-transparent glass draws the master bathroom's views to the rest of the loft, and beyond.
