From its inception in 1983, the Ph.D. Program in Earth and Environmental Sciences has identified itself with "promoting teaching and research in the study of the earth." With faculty in atmospheric sciences, environmental sciences, environmental psychology, geography, and geology, the Earth and Environmental Sciences program at the CUNY Graduate Center spans a broad array of subjects focusing on the earth, its environments, human activities, and the linkages between them.
Whether they are paleontologists or cultural geographers, Earth and Environmental Sciences students become part of a strong academic community supported by our accomplished faculty who foster curiosity and the pursuit of social justice.
Graduate Center students are encouraged to work across disciplines. This interdisciplinary approach is supported by our accomplished faculty members who have a variety of research interests. Along the path to degree, students are encouraged to attend academic conferences, write articles to submit for publication, and many will teach undergraduate courses at a CUNY college.
Students must complete 4-5 core courses and can choose elective courses within the Earth and Environmental Sciences program and in other doctoral programs at the CUNY Graduate Center. Most required courses and courses for the Geography and Environmental Psychology specializations are conducted at the CUNY Graduate Center, while laboratory courses and courses for the Environmental and Geological Sciences specialization are offered at the various affiliated departments throughout CUNY.
Earth and Environmental Sciences hosts a weekly colloquium and is part of an inter-university consortium that allow students to further discuss and pursue their research while working with colleagues within CUNY and from other schools in the region.
Graduates of the program go on to work in academia and in the public and private sector.

Environmental Psychology was founded on three central ideas at the start of the 1970s: 1) the incorporation of the physical environment into psychology – related to emerging recognition of environmental crisis—from 'silent spring' to urban decay; 2) the adoption of field research that would operate outside of the laboratory, the received mode in psychology, where variables can be controlled and manipulated, to embrace the messy world of the everyday complex variables of people-environment relationships; 3) interdisciplinarity as the means to include the many necessary perspectives for understanding the interactions of people and place, while embracing the policy and design disciplines that shape our environments.

Q: Integration of Lambert W function I am interested in the integration of Lambert W function. Differentiation is ok but I am unable to integrate it. How to perform it?

A: Although this question is older, the question and result are vague. The following may be of assistance.
For the integral
$$\int W(a x) \, dx$$
let $t = W(a x)$, or $x = \frac{1}{a} \, t \, e^{t}$ and $dx = \frac{1}{a} \, (t + 1) \, e^{t} \, dt$ to obtain
\begin{align}
\int W(a x) \, dx &= \frac{1}{a} \, \int t \, (t + 1) \, e^{t} \, dt \\
&= \frac{1}{a} \, \int e^{t} \, (t^2 + t) \, dt \\
&= \frac{1}{a} \, \left[ (t^2 - 2 t + 2) + (t -1) \right] \, e^{t} + c_{0} \\
&= \frac{1}{a} \, (t^2 - t + 1) \, e^{t} + c_{0} \\
&= t \, \frac{t e^{t}}{a} - \frac{t e^{t}}{a} + \frac{t e^{t}}{a \, t} + c_{0} \\
&= x \, (W(a x) -1) + \frac{x}{W(a x)} + c_{0}.
\end{align}
Notice that if $x = 0$ then $W(x)|_{x=0} = 0$ and the integral result will be invalid. To remove this difficulty it is required to use
$$e^{W(x)} = \frac{x}{W(x)}.$$
The integral then becomes
$$\int W(a x) \, dx = \begin{cases} x \, (W(a x) -1) + \frac{x}{W(a x)} + c_{0} & x \neq 0 \\
x \, (W(a x) - 1) + e^{W(a x)} + c_{0} & x \text{ is allowed to be } 0. \end{cases}$$
As an example is it now fairly easy to determine that
$$\int_{0}^{1} W(a x) \, dx = \frac{(W(a) - 1)^{2}}{W(a)}.$$

A: Substitute the whole integrand, i.e. let $u=W(x)$ in $\int W(x)\mathrm dx$.
EDIT: To a bit more explicit: You'll find $\mathrm dx = \mathrm e^u(1+u)\mathrm du$ and ther rest is a simple computation...

Thread: Populism and Extraverted Sensation
Article Poster
Extraverted sensation (Se), which we all have to varying degrees, is particularly suited to the rough-and-tumble world of politics. When political leaders bring out this function-attitude, we see a pragmatic, energizing facilitator of movements. Adept at sensing where the 'heat' is, these types pick up on what the masses are feeling and leverage that energy towards an end. When the function is dominant in a politician's type, a populist mentality often emerges. Just as extraverted sensation seeks to experience and connect with its environment, populism in its purest form is like a dance between a politician and the masses: a symbiosis born of intense interaction with the political landscape as dance floor. When operating in a partisan milieu, political leaders would be well advised to draw on their extraverted sensing function.
Extraverted sensors naturally attune themselves to their externals. They notice the lay of the land. They are especially aware of their immediate surroundings, perceiving threats and opportunities in the moment—typically reacting almost without thinking. In leadership, these types (ESTP, ESFP) are most characterized by bold, proactive moves. They seek quick wins. They act with agility and speed in a crisis. If there is no crisis, they may create one just to deal with it. Theirs is a constant state of readiness. In scans of the brain when engaged in extraverted sensing activity, Dario Nardi's research revealed a "tennis hop" pattern: continuous low-level activity, the way a tennis player lightly bounces foot-to-foot, indicating an alacrity for anything that comes along. In short, extraverted sensing leaders value action, variety, urgency, spontaneity, resourcefulness, experimentation, adaptation, empowerment, and efficiency.
That's extraverted sensation at its best. Extraverted sensors at their worst, in the grip of their inferior function, miss the deeper meaning of their actions and long-term consequences. As leaders they struggle with the long view. They prioritize the urgent over the important. They discount the value of a strategic vision or plan, and they disdain any rigorous planning process. Their impatience with detailed policies or procedures can cause them to miss critical steps on a checklist, for example. Another typical weakness is a lack of self-awareness—especially not grasping their own life's purpose—as their conscious energy is directed to what's outside them. In extreme cases this external attention can lead to materialism, hedonism, and dependence on external stimulation. Finally, extraverted sensors seem to be especially susceptible to emotional triggers, such as status (sensitivity to personal slights), autonomy (resistance to being managed), and relatedness (a tribal loyalty).
Populism and Presidents
Eight former U.S. Presidents with a preference for extraverted sensation share a distinct leadership style:
Populism is particularly prevalent among Proactive (Se) LeaderTypes in the political domain with good reason. They are constantly surveying the situation to see where threats and opportunities lie—in this case, among the body politic. Once having sensed the political landscape they are amazingly adept and agile in responding—some would say reacting—to their environment. In (Andrew) Jackson's case, riding the wave of popular will. (Keahey, 2018)
Populism has acquired a negative reputation, and this is especially true now with the presidency of Donald Trump, but many other political leaders have used extraverted sensing tactics and policies to rally the cause of the common man. This is true not only of Andrew Jackson—in whom extraverted sensation (Se) seems to be dominant—but also of Lyndon B. Johnson and Theodore Roosevelt. Both LBJ and Teddy Roosevelt demonstrated a penchant for populist causes in their policies and programs. Andrew Jackson, the "People's President," facilitated the United States becoming a true democracy. Theodore Roosevelt brokered a "Square Deal" between management and labor, essentially lifting the factory worker's status vis-à-vis the corporate baron. LBJ had a natural affinity for the poor from growing up in rural Texas, and his experiences informed his War on Poverty, resulting in his Great Society legislation. Nevertheless, populism does not always have noble aims and often has unintended consequences.
Populism has been defined in a number of ways. Some see it as a political strategy in which a charismatic leader appeals to the masses while sweeping aside institutions, but not all populist movements have such a leader. Jan-Werner Müller, a political scientist at Princeton University, thinks populists are defined by their claim that they alone represent the people, and that all others are illegitimate (The Economist, 2016). Müller made important distinctions among populists, such as inclusive and exclusive varieties. While exclusive populism focuses on defining and shutting out stigmatized groups such as refugees, inclusive populism demands that stigmatized groups like the poor and minorities be included in the political process and that policies reflect their needs and issues. Another political scientist at the University of Georgia, Cas Mudde (2015) offered a definition that has been increasingly accepted: he views populism as a "thin ideology" that merely sets up a framework of a pure people versus a corrupt elite. He contrasts it with pluralism, which accepts the legitimacy of many different groups. This thin ideology can be attached to all sorts of "thick" ideologies (e.g., socialism, nationalism, anti-imperialism, libertarianism, or even racism). In a democracy, populism as the 'will of the people' can trump all other movements.
Some think populism began with the Populist Party of the 1890s, but that is only when it gained a capital letter and a political platform. The American Revolution, specifically the Boston Tea Party, could be viewed as a populist uprising leveraging the collective power of the people against the British crown to protest taxation without representation. The Antifederalist movement of the 1780s is another early example of populism, rallying against the perceived threat of the United States becoming a monarchy, leading to the Bill of Rights. The Jacksonian period saw citizens fighting the perceived tyranny of banks and landholders over common farmers.
Obviously, populism is not new, but the 2016 presidential election saw a tsunami wave of populist sentiment from both directions, left and right: Bernie Sanders, a self-described 'Democratic socialist,' or inclusive populist per Müller's framework, and Donald Trump, an exclusive populist running as a Republican. These candidates show how different populists can be: although both were anti-establishment, the only similarity in their campaigns was criticism of free trade deals. Former Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo (R) said, "In truth, the 'populist anger' fueling Trump's coalition is fundamentally different from Sanders' 'progressive populism.' The superficial similarities between the two end when they talk about solutions." Pulitzer-Prize-winning columnist Eugene Robinson (2018) went even further:
The idea of Donald Trump as some sort of Man of the People was laughable from the start—a boastful plutocrat who lives in a gold-plated aerie above Fifth Avenue, claiming lunch-bucket solidarity with factory workers and coal miners. He sold it, though, largely by cementing a racial and cultural kinship and shamelessly misrepresenting his intentions.
What Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders Have in Common
Journalist Michael Kazin (2016) questioned how a term—populism—could describe both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders and still have meaning: "Trump's 'populism' is a brilliant piece of performance art but one that bears little resemblance, even in style, to the capital-P kind." Personality type can provide an answer. Populism, in its purest form, means engaging and facilitating the popular will of the masses. If the external environment is the body politic, and the goal of the movement is power to the masses, then populism can be viewed typologically as an expression of the extraverted sensing (Se) function in politics. Jung (1971/1921) described the type governed by extraverted sensation as follows:
No other human type can equal the extraverted sensation type in realism. Since one is inclined to regard a highly developed reality-sense as a sign of rationality, such people will be esteemed as very rational. But in actual fact this is not the case, since they are just as much at the mercy of their sensations in the face of irrational (emphasis added), chance happenings as they are in the face of rational ones. This type … naturally does not think he is at the mercy of sensation. His whole aim is concrete enjoyment, and his morality is oriented accordingly. (¶ 606)
Populism shares this irrational aspect with the Se function: populist movements are characterized by enjoyment and social interaction, and populists are good at perceiving the environment around them. They are aware of how they are triggered emotionally and are typically adept at triggering others in terms of status, autonomy, relatedness, and/or fairness. These are the 'sensations' to which populists appeal and by which they rally the masses.
In politics, the extraverted sensing type's natural strength is being attuned to the will of the people. These types (ESTP, ESFP) tend to be restless, opportunistic, and expansive in dealing with the political landscape. They sense where power lies—in the masses—and typically perceive this in a vertical dimension: haves versus have-nots, whether privilege, wealth, power, status, etc. The judging function of this type, if developed, reveals its populist rallying cry: either a defining idea (Thinking) or a shared value (Feeling). When the dominant extraverted sensation of a populist movement is combined with the values and morals of introverted feeling (Fi), the movement takes a decidedly moralistic tone and may focus on income inequality or class issues. When combined with the ideas and principles of introverted thinking (Ti), it takes on a more libertarian, autonomous tone. The exclusive populist has an affiliation with ESTP preferences, and the inclusive populist with ESFP preferences. Subsets of populism include libertarianism, in which the organizing principles (Ti) are autonomy and minimalism, and socialism, in which the organizing values (Fi) are egalitarianism and fairness. Both argue for power to be distributed to the masses.
The inferior function of the dominant Se type is introverted intuition (Ni), and the same could be said of populist movements. In his Memoirs, David Rockefeller (2009) made this insightful comment: "'Populists' believe in conspiracies and one of the most enduring is that a secret group of international bankers and capitalists, and their minions, control the world's economy" (p. 405). Their belief that power is concentrated in a few and that these few have a nefarious intent reveals how the shadow of extraverted sensing types can manifest in politics. Michael Kazin (2016) described how paranoia emerged in earlier populist movements: "To explain society's ills, they invoked 'a vast conspiracy against mankind,' engineered by a plutocratic cabal." In this way an ESFP movement (inclusive populism) can project its unconscious fears onto an INTJ-like nemesis.
By contrast, when Introverted Intuition (Ni) is the dominant function for a movement, e.g., in progressive parties or environmental/green parties, it can provide an idyllic vision of the future. The political power to secure and protect that visionary ideal becomes paramount, so an extraverted judging function is needed to balance it: if thinking (Te) is the auxiliary, it manifests in institutional structures, systems, or bureaucracies which protect those in power and control the masses; if feeling (Fe) is the auxiliary, it manifests as political parties and/or religious or social organizations where group norms and values are upheld as the 'rule' (i.e., establishment). If the visionary ideal remains the core of the political movement, the corresponding shadow (Se) will always lurk in the deep as an image of restless masses ready to rise up in irresponsible self-gratification and chaos, representing the Ni type's nemesis. This resistance to extraverted sensation can lead to elitism.
Subset examples of elitism include nationalism and fascism where the judging function based on the vision (Ni) sorts people into categories and establishes structures/systems/plans to implement that vision (Te); or democratic idealism where political parties debate and reach consensus on the premises of deliberation, pluralism, and reciprocity (Fe). The latter represents the United States' realization of democracy. It also helps explain why Andrew Jackson (with preferences for ESTP) was so successful in his populist pursuits as president, and much of why Jefferson called him "a dangerous man": Jackson represented the kind of leader who could empower the masses and encourage their worst impulses. Jung (1953/1968) himself said: " … for the masses are blind brutes, as we know to our cost" (¶ 563).
Andrew Jackson, an Extraverted Sensing Populist
Andrew Jackson (1767–1845) emerged from his youth not only a fighter, but a survivor. Barely a teenager in the Revolutionary War, Jackson's survival depended on a keen awareness of his surroundings. He was particularly gifted at interpreting Native American communication and movements in the wilderness. The necessity to act in emergent situations with speed and agility naturally developed his Se function. Jackson was the epitome of energetic action, often overstepping boundaries—literally. He fought 138 duels before becoming president, probably more than any other president, which won him a bad reputation among his peers. His sedate, boring plantation life precipitated a midlife crisis and the need to remake himself and his reputation. He brought himself out of 'early retirement' and into military service with the War of 1812, forging a persona as a war hero. He pushed the Seminole people back into Florida (then owned by Spain), and went so far as to capture Pensacola, completely without any authorization.
Jackson had many starts but not a lot of finishes: he was the first U.S. senator from Tennessee but only lasted six months, and the first governor of Florida, in which office he lasted only a few months. Governing bored him. Running for president did not bore him. After losing a bitter, hotly contested race to John Quincy Adams in 1824 via the House of Representatives in what became known as the "Corrupt Bargain," he almost immediately began campaigning for the next election, which he won. As president, Jackson led what was essentially America's second revolution. His bold, experiential, and immediate leadership style triggered a reconsideration of what constituted the United States. He urged a return to a simpler, more frugal, minimalist government. His political instincts were honed to an extraordinary level as he stoked populist flames with a fervor.
Jackson's is often called the first modern presidency because of his belief that the president is not just an executive but a representative of the people, much like a congressman but for all the people rather than those of a specific district, earning him the nickname "the People's President." He sensed a oneness with the body politic: he embodied their desires. This strong connection was reflected in a constant feedback loop. He listened to their concerns and believed he reflected their wishes. He stoked their passions and was himself energized by them. This is the nature of the extraverted sensing politician: being so connected with the populace, he or she experiences a solidarity with the people, a belief that "I am them" and "they are me."
Donald Trump, A Jacksonian President?
Many political leaders have imitated Jackson's strongly populist philosophy—especially when stoking us-versus-them sentiments among the downtrodden against the rich and powerful. Countless candidates since Jackson have claimed rags-to-riches stories, promised reform, or vowed to make the will of the people an end justifying any means. Whatever their desired result, every president after Jackson, thanks to his example, exerted the full power of a democracy: expressing—and when authentic, personifying—the unambiguous will of the people (Keahey, 2018). The similarities with President Donald Trump are striking. The difference between Andrew Jackson and Donald Trump is type development.
Jackson developed many more functions than his dominant function of extraverted sensation (Se):
Te-6th, extraverted thinking: Jackson, as a soldier and later as a commander, was given to swift, sure execution of plans.
Ti-2nd, introverted thinking: Jackson served as a justice on the Tennessee Supreme Court, where he defined and articulated his principles, among them his strong belief in individual liberty. His judicial appointments clarified many of his ideas and beliefs.
Si-5th, introverted sensation: Jackson was a fiscal conservative. He reorganized the banking system and is the only president to completely pay off the national debt.
Ne-8th, extraverted intuition: During his presidency, he lived through and facilitated many changes—wars, geographic expansion, and a variety of anti-corruption policies, including "rotation of office" to prevent nepotism and dynastic succession.
Fi-7th, introverted feeling: He strictly adhered to his own moral code, and he took personal offense at any questioning of his morality or behavior. His authenticity and self-sacrifice built a tremendous loyalty among his troops and political cronies.
Ni-4th, introverted intuition: His 1837 Farewell Address prophetically warned of the dangers of sectional fanaticism between the North and the South. Toward the end of his life, he could envision where things would lead.
President Trump shows less evidence of development than Jackson. What is visible is one-sided extraverted sensation: a dominant function without an auxiliary; considerable extraversion without much reflection; in short, a type without balance.
Frank Bruni (2016) of The New York Times wrote several articles proclaiming Trump to be a 'pretend populist.' Donald Trump's one-sided expression of extraverted sensation in excess is what Mr. Bruni perceives as populist pretense: Trump shows the Se dominant type's desire to make an impact, enjoyment of sensory pleasures, and focus on the present moment. When these attributes are used constructively, they enable an Se individual to develop quick reflexes, take jobs that would frighten others, read the public mind, and provide a realistic perspective. But without the balance of judgment, such attributes become toxic. Lack of judgment has enabled the president to glam onto whatever idea (Ti) or value (Fi) reflects the ideas or values of his base and to promote his agenda, his brand, and himself at the expense of the people he leads. The British documentary filmmaker Louis Theroux (2016) said, "I think Donald Trump's had a pattern of leaping on the bandwagon of anything that he feels will further his candidacy, and if that means sowing more fear and paranoia and playing into a kind of xenophobic populist strain, then that's what he will do." The ascendancy of Donald Trump was nothing short of a political marvel. According to an op-ed in The New York Times, Donald Trump's presidency "represent[s] a stunning moment in American politics—the triumph of a raw populism, embodied by a shameless demagogue, over both the official establishment and the official ideology of a major political party" (Douthat, 2016).
From Populism to Mob Mentality
How did this happen? Seth Godin's book Tribes: We Need You to Lead Us suggests that a populist 'tribe' is perennially taking applications. And should the person the tribe chooses have a developed Se without an auxiliary judging function to provide principles or morals, then he/she, will perceive the public's pain or fear, latch onto it, and attempt to steer it. Pure populist leaders find a tribe of angry or passionate people and ride that wave to its crest. They are surfing the body politic for the 'next big one.' Extraverted sensing types are adventurous thrill-seekers: they want to be where the action is, engaging and interacting with others, stirring movement. Probably one of the best explanations of how this is done comes from the film The American President in which fictional President Andrew Shepherd describes how to foment the passion and prejudices of a crowd: "[By] making you afraid of [something], and telling you who's to blame for it. That, ladies and gentlemen, is how you win elections" (Sorkin & Reiner, 1995). Once the masses become activated in their passions, little can be done to inform them, as Jung (1959/1969) pointed out:
No doubts can exist in the herd: the bigger the crowd the better the truth—and the catastrophe. … The psychology of a large crowd inevitably sinks to the level of mob psychology. If, therefore, I have a so-called collective experience as a member of a group, it takes place on a lower level of consciousness than if I had the experience by myself alone. (¶ 225)
That Donald Trump relishes the political give-and-take and the jousting-and-jabbing invective of Twitter is obvious. The immediacy, the attention, the emotionalism, and the large reach of social media give him concrete enjoyment—the raison d'etre of an extraverted sensing type. Variety is the spice of life for an Se dominant type. "There is no standard operating practice with this administration," said Sen. John Thune (R-SD). "Every day is a new adventure for us" (Paletta & Dawsey, 2018). The White House is in a permanent state of flux because the Se type loves being in motion and being in the moment, unconstrained by past policies or future concerns. "Trump is a self-proclaimed dealmaker who has struggled to close critical deals as president—an unreliable negotiator who seems to promise one thing only to renege days, or even hours, later" (Paletta & Dawsey, 2018).
When a populist leader lets the adoration of the masses consume his ego and thinks himself (or herself) invincible, it can lead to authoritarianism. Jung (1953/1993) spoke to this inflation:
An inflated consciousness is always egocentric and conscious of nothing but its own existence. It is incapable of learning from the past, incapable of understanding contemporary events, and incapable of drawing right conclusions about the future. It is hypnotized by itself and therefore cannot be argued with. It inevitably dooms itself to calamities that must strike it dead. (¶ 563)
Perhaps the lesson for politicians is this: Before the shadow of your political movement arises in inopportune, messy ways, consider embracing the opposition and holding the tension of opposing views. May we all do our individual work with respect to our political views, in attempting to truly understand the interests and needs of our opposition.

What isn't clear to me is how what you have described is more Se than it is Ne, or Fe, or Te? Sensing where the "heat is" seems metaphorical to me and not as concrete as Se actually is.
What I've noticed about Se is that it takes in the concrete world as it is without pre-set judgments. A simple example from my life is how I watch Star Wars compared to many other people. So many people have preset ideas and expectations which result in strong opinions about how that experience lived up to their inner constructs of it. I go into a movie without those inner constructs and so take it as it is. I don't have fired up opinions about how it lived up to my expectations.
My concept of Se would be pragmatic in terms of solving problems. It could combine with a T function to be a good civil engineer. It may have an idea about a good plan to fix the road system that isn't reliant on pre-set assumptions. I actually comprehend Se as rather non-political because the very foundation of politics is perception, image, inner-constructs, memes, labels, archetypes, etc. It is everything about human thought that abstracts reality and places judgment on it. I would place Se as one of the last functions to participate in perception play that is the foundation of political processes.
The OP is written as what seems like extreme Te-Ni to me. It might be interesting to read what a Se-dom would write about politics. I think they would rely on their Ti or Fi to make the judgments because Se just is too concrete. It would be great at being security for a politician because it could see every detail in the environment from a pragmatic, objective perspective and solve the problem of keeping danger from happening. That is all completely concrete, solid, measurable information and not the bizarre imaginary world that is politics. Se is going to be lost, annoyed, and very frustrated by that place.
It's entirely possible and realistic to live your life in such a way that you don't accidentally rape people. ME

The Arena Berlin is also looking forward to its female counterpart to the Caveman: – CAVEWOMAN!
Sex, lies and lipsticks – CAVEWOMAN Heike uses the last hours before the wedding ceremony to give the embarrassingly early wedding guests a quick course in man-woman relationships. And that with a good portion of anger in her stomach. Or what would you say if your husband disappeared one night before the wedding just because you said "Get lost! But don't worry: CAVEWOMAN is not a feminist large-scale attack on the common species man – it's rather a pleasurable look at the coexistence of two different beings who have to share a planet, a country, a city and the worst: ONE APARTMENT!
Heike, Tom's future wife, settles this brilliant solo show against the self-proclaimed "Lords of Creation". Sometimes with the rough Stone Age club, sometimes with the pointed, perfectly groomed nails of a modern cavewoman – but always apt and hilarious! A theatre evening that will astonish you and above all make you laugh, because we have always known that if men were as good lovers as they think, women wouldn't have time to do their hair!
CAVEWOMAN is based on "Defending The Cavewoman" by Emma Peirson. The author, director and producer for theatre and television graduated from the South African School of Film, Television and Drama (A.F.D.A.) with an honours degree in drama (production, writing, directing and acting). As co-owner of Frosti Lemon Productions, she specializes in the production and execution of musicals and plays.
Between 1997 and 2000 Emma Peirson was nominated as author and director for "Defending The Cavewoman" and co-author of the comedy show "10% off" as best playwright and best director at the A.F.D.A.. She was awarded Best Supporting Actress in 1999 and Best Director, Dramatic Artist and Producer for Defending The Cavewoman in 2000. She was nominated for two VITA Awards, Best Newcomer in Comedy in 2000 (Deon Opperman's PLAYBOYS) and Best New South African Screenplay in 2002 (Defending The Cavewoman). Productions in which she took part: A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM, EQUUS, VICIOUS CIRCLE, IT'S FUNNY WHEN YOU'RE DEAD, PLAYBOYS, BAD HABITS, CYRANO DE BERGERAC, IMPROMPTOO ZOO, REQUIEM, MAGSPEL, SEX LIES AND LEOPARD CRAWL and VERE. Their last show, the international hit "100% Sex Therapy", runs with constant success in Johannesburg, South Africa, as well as the successful musical sketch show "The cheap show".

Eighty-five percent of healthcare providers believe their ambulatory electronic medical record software will enable them to meet the 2011 meaningful use deadlines being considered by the federal government, according to a new report from KLAS.
However, many respondents say their technology lacks adequate reporting functionality.
Providers also noted a number of functional areas that are still lacking. Foremost among these were EMR reporting tools, patient access to medical records and the ability to share key clinical data.
"Reporting will obviously play a vital role in a provider's ability to meet the proposed meaningful use standards, yet more than 17 percent of providers say reporting is difficult or impossible with their current tools - and another 24 percent report needing specific technical expertise to manipulate the tools provided," said Mark Wagner, director of ambulatory research for KLAS and author of the report.
"To help their clients meet the substantial reporting requirements for meaningful use, many EMR vendors will need to increase the number and complexity of their canned reports, provide a stand-alone reporting application or add a third-party tool that can pull the required data," Wagner added.

How to Tell If Walnuts Are Good

Based in Los Angeles, Zora Hughes has been writing travel, parenting, cooking and relationship articles since 2010. Her work includes writing city profiles for Groupon.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts in television writing/producing and a Master of Arts Management in entertainment media management, both from Columbia College.
Whether you're looking to add a healthy protein source to your diet, or you just would like to add a nutty flavor to a meal, walnuts are a handy type of nut to keep around the house. Due to the high fat content in walnuts, they can go bad when exposed to warm temperatures for an extended period of time. It's important to check any walnuts you may have kept in the pantry before using them to make sure they are fresh.
Nutcracker or hammer
Shelled Walnuts
Look at the walnuts. If they look overly wrinkled, shriveled and rubbery, it's an indication of bad walnuts.
Touch the walnuts. Fresh shelled walnuts should be firm to the touch and should not feel moist. Soft and moist walnuts should be discarded.
Smell and take a small nibble of the walnuts. Fresh walnuts will smell nutty and have a sweet, nutty taste. Walnuts that smell like paint thinner and have a very bitter taste are rancid and need to be thrown away.
Unshelled Walnuts
Touch the walnuts. Unshelled walnuts have a full and heavy feel to them. If the nutmeat inside rattles, it's an indication that the walnut is old and starting to dry out.
Examine the walnut shells. Discard any of the walnuts that have cracks or holes in their shell. The nutmeat inside will have been exposed to air and other elements, making it dry and inedible.
Test the nuts in water. If you picked the walnuts yourself, you need to check too make sure that insects such as maggots and walnut weevils did not get into the nuts. Place the nuts in a bucket of water. Nuts that sink to the bottom are good, nuts that float indicates insects have gotten to the nutmeat inside, which is why it is light enough to float. Discard any floating walnuts.
Always store walnuts in the refrigerator whether shelled or unshelled to ensure freshness. Shelled walnuts will stay fresh in the refrigerator for about a month, while unshelled walnuts can last up to six months.
If you want the walnuts to keep for longer, place them in a freezer bag and put it in the freezer. Walnuts can last in the freezer up to one year.
To open the shell of a walnut, use a nut cracker to crack the shell, or firmly hit the shell with a hammer to crack it open.

How should TV portray people of faith?
We watch a LOT of TV concerning religion, ethics or spirituality here at the Sandford St Martin Trust and so are particularly attuned to any buzz in the Twittersphere or the wider media around the portrayal of faith or the faithful on air. So it was that one of our trustees came across an open letter to the BBC from the Christian evangelist Canon J John and published on his website. Now, before you go any further, please note that at the Trust we don't share the Canon's opinions of the BBC's output. Take a quick look at the shortlist for this year's Sandford awards and you'll find several bishops, one priest and many nuns. They appear across genres in dramas, factual and reality programmes – most of them broadcast by the BBC – and, we'd say, all of them realistically and sympathetically portrayed – which was no doubt a contributing factor to how they ended up on the Sandford St Martin shortlist in the first place. If you widen the scope of your survey even further to include people and practitioners of any faith, then you'll find an even greater number of often nuanced and sensitive explorations of belief.
Bryony Taylor is the author of the very readable and informative "More TV Vicar?" which examines how Christians are representing on popular TV programmes and the soon-to-be Rector of Barlborough and Clowne in Derby Diocese. She has also been a stalwart of our awards shortlisting team for several years now and is something of an expert when it comes to how faith is portrayed on the telly. Her thoughts about how Christians are represented by the BBC, written in response to J John's letter, below, was first published on her own website. She has generously given us permission to reproduce it here. If you want to read more about how "ordinary" Christians have been represented on TV then I'd recommend that part of her book dedicated to EastEnders' Dot Cotton in addition to this blog and the readers' replies on the Accultured website which also examine how mainstream programmes like "Suits" or "The Simpsons" deal with faith.

Can The BBC Keep The Faith?


Peking duck is a dish from Beijing that has been prepared since the imperial era. The meat is characterized by its thin, crisp skin, with authentic versions of the dish serving mostly the skin and little meat, sliced in front of the diners by the cook.
Grind together ingredients from shallots to salt to a fine paste. Marinate the cleaned duck pieces with half of the ground paste. Keep it aside for 1 hour.
Heat oil in a pan (you can use a combination of oil & ghee also) and shallow fry the marinated duck pieces till it turns golden brown colour. Keep it aside. In the same oil add the finely sliced onions & cook. When the onion becomes golden brown colour add the remaining half of the ground masala. Fry it till the oil starts appearing. Add 2 cups of boiling water to the onion and masala mix. Combine well.
Transfer the fried duck pieces and the onion gravy to a pressure cooker. Cook till the duck is done. The cooking time varies depending on the type of duck (broiler or free range). Once the pressure is gone, open the cooker & cook till the gravy thickens. This curry usually doesn't have much gravy, so you need to cook till the water is almost dried and each piece is thickly coated with the masala. Transfer the duck pieces to a serving dish and garnish with fried onions, potatoes & curry leaves. Serve hot with rice or appam.
Heat oil/ghee in a pan and fry the boiled potato wedges, remove from pan, In the same oil fry the thinly sliced onions & curry leaves.


Can you chip in to help NSW Solar Citizens volunteers get to Canberra?
I'm Peter and I'm a recently retired ICT manager, now volunteering for Solar Citizens and another environment related organisation.
I'm interested in environmental politics and bike riding.
I've invested in a gas-boosted solar hot water service and a 6 panel solar PV system. I'm planning to double the number of PV panels and install an energy storage system when the FiT expires at the end of 2016.
I'm involved with Solar Citizens because our solar systems are the best short term investment we have ever made – they paid for themselves in 5 years. They are also the best long term investment we could make, in the hope that our grandchildren will be able to continue to live on this planet.
My name is Thomas and I've been living in Sydney for the last 6 years. I studied renewable energy engineering at the University of New South Wales.
Australia has such an abundant solar resource and it is very encouraging to see so many Australians adopt solar PV on their own accord. To me, solar represents independence and responsibility; we now all have the ability to take control of our energy supply and consumption.
The renewable energy (and in particular, solar PV) industry in Australia is faltering, due to vested interests in various other non-renewable sources of energy. For this reason, I am finding it difficult to find full-time employment.
At the retreat I'd like to learn more about the campaigning process and what gets people involved in a campaign.
I was born in England and went to school in Cambridge where climate change issues were at the forefront of conversation. Some of the issues I became aware of back then are still under discussion now.
As a young adult I dabbled as an ignorant amateur with solar power. I was interested in home-made solar thermal systems to heat water. I moved to Australia in 1999 and have lived all over since.
In 2010 I installed a solar PV system on my roof and set about reducing my family's carbon footprint in the best way I could. The company who installed my rooftop system went bust.
One of their other customers was involved in Solar Citizens and put me on to them so I joined the organisation maybe just over a year ago. I have continued to move house frequently and now rent a sustainable house in the Sydney area. I sometimes volunteer for Solar Citizens and I study energy studies to try and understand our way forward for the environment and our health in relation to our energy use and sources.

NRL News and Talking Points: Alex McKinnon, Fifita Faux Pas , A Manly Glen Stewart?
April 2, 2014 Jamie Loyd Jamie Loyd, NRL, Rugby League 5
Andrew Fifita
OUTBACK, AUSTRALIA – So far 2014 has been a topsy-turvy season with last year's powerhouses faltering and last year's also-rans putting in some strong performances. However, despite the Canterbury Bulldogs utterly dismantling the Melbourne Storm and the Rabbitohs being on a three-game losing streak – after having smashed the reigning champions (The Sydney Roosters) in round one – it is off-the-field incidents that are dominating the NRL News and Talking Points:
Fifita throws away multi million-dollar contract with throwaway remarks
One has to wonder who advises rugby players some times; if indeed anyone does! Either way, Andrew Fifita needs to buy himself a PR person! Offered AU$800,000 over four years by the Canterbury Bulldogs, Fifita was unsurprisingly happy to sign on the dotted line. However, after catching some flak for this landmark deal, he came out with a statement to the effect that he wished he had switched to rugby union to avoid all the abuse he was getting. Andrew, you're a big boy. I'm sure for $3.4 million over four years you can take a little bit of ribbing, no?
Bulldogs CEO, Raelene Castle was not amused by these remarks, and promptly tore up the contract, suggesting that Fifita had prematurely announced the deal when it was not finalized.
This whole episode, apart from being staggering in its incompetence, also leaves Fifita ever so slightly in limbo. There's apparently still an offer from his current club the Cronulla Sharks on the table, however his loyalty will be seriously called into question. There is also the option of actually moving to rugby (possibly French, maybe Australian). But the ARU has made it clear they will not spend obscene amounts of money on an untested product such as Fifita. He could make the switch (as a back row or possibly centre) as he played junior level rugby, but again it would be considerably less high profile.
Alex McKinnon pre-injury
Pray for McKinnon
After being the subject of a truly horrendous head-first, into the ground three-man tackle, Alex McKinnon (Newcastle Knights) was released from his induced coma three days ago. There are mixed reports. However, it appears that he has feeling in his right arm and head, though the rest of his body is currently paralyzed. One particularly forward newspaper suggested he was a quadriplegic, a rumour that was widely condemned when it emerged he did in fact have some feeling in his arm and movement of his head. He is communicating with family, however, and there has been no further update on his condition.
The NRL judiciary has found Melbourne Storm prop Jordan McLean of the Melbourne Storm guilty of a careless lifting tackle on McKinnon. There's no doubt he is filled with remorse about the tackle and at the professional level it is very rare for one player to intentionally do that level of damage to another player. McLean refused to watch any of the 30 replays of the incident.
Video of Tackle – PLEASE NOTE, WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISK, very unsettling
http://youtu.be/W-BmKXU12yE
Milford in contract turnaround? Yet more questions raised about the Round 13 rule.
After the furor of his signed, sealed and delivered switch to the Brisbane Broncos for family reasons, it seems that he may possibly do an about face and stay with his nursery team the Canberra Raiders. The rule in the NRL is that a player can back out of his contract up until Round 13 of the season before he transfers.It seems Anthony Milford is now remembering why he enjoys Canberra so much. The Raiders have had a history of players back flipping on deals with other clubs. Boom forward Josh Papalii backed out of a deal with the Parramatta Eels just last season and is now wondering whether his teammate may do the same.
Manly set to lose warhorses?
Veteran Manly centre Steve Matai has suggested that should the Sea Eagles lose inspirational back rower Glen Stewart, it could signal an exodus of the club's big names. With his brother Brett Stewart still at the club and a new breed of Sea Eagles coming through in Kieran Foran, Peta Hiku and Daly Cherry Evans, questions will be raised as to whether Manly needs their ageing warriors.

Starting with the batch that just shipped out this week, we are using a new blending method. I have noticed some uneven mixing of essential oils and herbal extract powders in the past with hand mixing the ingredients by shaking and mixing the product around in Ziploc bags. We just recently acquired a professional herb grinder and are now using that to blend the TEEF Powder. I have noticed truly zero clumps since making this switch. I think you will notice a much higher quality product!

If You Go Chasing Rabbits…
Jim Morrison in Paris, France
Paying homage to Jim Morrison was at the top of the list of things to do in Paris for me. Obviously I had to visit his grave, and the internet made it pretty easy to find other places to check out. The Paris Guide For Doors Fans helped me find the apartment he lived in and a restaurant he frequented.
Moving to Paris in 1971, Jim planned to focus on realigning himself and writing poetry. There are many different speculations about what happened next, but it is mostly accepted that he passed away in Paris that same year (but there are always conspiracy theories).
Morrison lived a full life, just faster than most people. Luckily what he created outlasted him so we can still put on a record or pick up a book of his poetry…
Jim Morrison's grave
Jim Morrison's tombstone can be found at Père Lachaise Cemetery. This is a huge graveyard, so I suggest taking a picture of one of the maps to find your way! Jim's grave is very popular so we weren't the only ones trying to find it and certainly not the only ones there. It is fenced off with security cameras now, but we did manage a quick whiskey offering without anyone getting upset.
Whatever you do, remember you are in a graveyard and it's important to be respectful.
Jim's Apartment
Located at 17 rue Beautreillis is the apartment where Jim lived with Pamela Courson. While some believe Jim died in a nightclub, others believe he died in this apartment in the bath (whoever put the sign up didn't seem to think so). There is a little cafe across the street from the apartments where we had a glass of wine and admired the building.
Les Deux Magots
We wanted to eat somewhere Jim enjoyed. Apparently he would go to this restaurant often, sometimes alone, sometimes with Pam. It's fun to think of Jim in Paris in the 70s. Sitting outside cafes and in parks writing or people watching.
We walked passed a band playing on the street and got a table out front. Our waiter here was an older gentlemen and very patient with us.
We did some people watching of our own. My buddy pointed out a cute dog walking by and the guy walking him took that as an invitation to sit down. We couldn't understand a word he was saying and he had obviously been drinking, but he seemed nice enough and we got to pet his dog.
As soon as he noticed, our waiter marched over and asked if we knew the man. We said no and they started arguing and he actually kind of pushed him out! Then when the people at the next table got up to leave, the man said, "if he comes back, just call me!"
We still don't know what the man was saying to us, but we laughed about it, just like all our other restaurant experiences in Paris.
There are lots of people in Paris, especially when I was there in summer. It can be hard to take a moment to dedicate to the dead when you feel like you're at a tourist attraction. Jim was great, and it's no surprise that he attracts people to him still.
It's still possible to quiet your mind and make it a special experience for yourself, no matter how many people are around you.
What has music, and your favorite artists, done for you? There will always be moments to be thankful for that.

Indie pharmacy modeled after Happy Harry's

By Kathy Canavan
Atlantic Apothecary, a nine-year-old pharmacy in a small town straddling Kent and New Castle counties, does almost double the average annual sales for an independent pharmacy.
The owner has a decidedly Delaware approach: "I modeled this after Happy Harry's "" our customer service, our staffing, our sports team sponsorships, our community screenings, all the things Happy Harry's used to do," Kevin Musto said.
Musto worked for Happy Harry's for 20 years and Walgreen's for one before he opened his own Atlantic Apothecary in Smyrna. His annual sales are $7 million, and he has 15,000 names in his patient database even though he's operating in a town of only 10,960. He opened a second branch in Middletown last year.
Things didn't look so cheery when Musto was seeking a loan to start his business in 2007, the year of the credit crunch and the housing crash. "Everyone was in upside-downness and here I am asking for money to open a pharmacy. The banks thought, "˜If the big pharmacies were having trouble, how in the world could a little pharmacy be profitable?' " Musto said.
Musto needed a Small Business Administration loan to get started, but now his business employs 14 in Smyrna and another five in Middletown. Smyrna is his home base and also his hometown.
To help his older patients and increase his customer base, Musto invested more than $300,000 in a computerized pill-packing system that prints out individualized pill packets for morning, noon and night. Patients pay the same price as they do for pill bottles, but they just rip the cellophane packets off a roll in a dispenser box.
[caption id="attachment_14174" align="aligncenter" width="675"] The ApothePacs system gives the patient one pack of prescription-and-over-the-counter pills for each period of the day. (Photography by Brian Harvath)[/caption]
The easy-to-open packets, printed especially for each patient, include all their prescription meds, over-the-counter items like coated aspirin, plus vitamins. Each packet is printed with the patient's name, the names of each drug, the time they are to be taken and the date. Patients just tear off a packet at the appropriate hour. If a patient is also prescribed an inhaler, the packets are modified to include a reminder to use it.
Musto thought the packets, which he dubbed "ApothePacs," would be popular with older patients, but he's finding fans among busy young families and frequent fliers.
Only 50 patients are currently enrolled, but more are joining each week, he said. There's a domino effect as patients hear about it from friends.
"I know with my own mother, if she hears it from a pharmacist she may not do it," Musto said, "but, if she hears it from a friend, well, then, that's freaking gospel."
Both Atlantic Apothecary pharmacies are located inside large medical office buildings. As doctors learn that Atlantic can package over-the-counter drugs along with prescription ones, they often refer patients, technician Nora Rennewanz said.
So, while the maintenance and supply costs for the ApothePac system exceed $10,000 a year, Atlantic is selling more prescription drugs and more over-the-counter drugs that patients used to buy at big-box stores. "We look at the big picture," Musto said. "The machine has not paid for itself yet, but I feel this will help our community get better health outcomes and it will increase our sales as well."
Non-adherence "" patients' failure to take prescribed medication, costs $100 billion to $300 billion in avoidable health costs in the United States each year, according to "Risk Management and Health Policy," a professional journal.

"If we can try to fix that and have patients take their medicine the way they're supposed to, you're basically looking at cost savings because they won't be at risk for health outcomes," Musto said. "If a patient is on hypertension medication and they take the medication property, they're less likely to have a heart attack. If they are diabetic and they are compliant, they won't lose a leg or lose their sight."
Another new service the pharmacy offers is medication synching "" technicians deal with doctors and insurance companies to sync all of a patient's prescriptions so they are issued at the same time and the patient can make just one monthly trip to the pharmacy. Some patients, who get checks on the first of the month, pick that date to sync.
It takes man-hours to make that work, so Musto employs four to six technicians on staggered shifts each day, while the industry average is fewer than four.
"We've all worked in the chains and we know there is a very limited amount of coverage in the chains," said Rennewanz, who often calls patients to sync their medications. "Having the additional time here gives us the time to really get to know the patient. After they enroll in the sync program, most times that person who calls them every month is going to be the same person, so they will know them. If they are late on their medications, we can ask why. Were the in the hospital? Did the doctor prescribe something else? Could they not afford it? You learn so much information when you have the time to have these interactions with the patients."
Musto's staff has more time to spend with patients because he was the first in the state to invest in a $200,000 Parata Max computerized pill-counting machine.
It counts the pills, drops them in vials, labels the vials, caps the vials and sorts them by patient name. "The automation enables our pharmacy staff to take care of more patient-centered needs so we don't spend our time counting," he said.

Changes in the marketplace
Musto said rising generic drug costs and lagging insurance payments are tipping his business and his patients' pocketbooks, though.
Generics account for 80 percent of the drugs prescribed in the United States, according to the Food & Drug Administration, and one study showed 222 generic drug groups cost more than 100 percent more in 2014 than they did the previous year, and 17 generic drug groups cost 1,000 percent more, according to Elsevier, a medical publisher.
Manufacturing issues and tighter FDA standards affected price, and so did major drug industry consolidation that led to much less competition. "Many generics that used to be pennies a tablet have been raised to $200 to $400 a bottle for the same product," Musto said. "There's no way manufacturers can justify that. It's absolute greed."
He said he is concerned that people will skip pills to save money or buy from the Internet where, he says, some pills may have no active ingredients at all. "People tend to see drugs as not a necessity," he said. "Health care is often put on the back burner as far as financial importance." To keep patients on their meds, Atlantic technicians work with doctors to find less costly drugs that do the same job.
The issue that affects Musto's pocketbook is more difficult to solve.

Just as with A.I. duPont Hospital for Children's much-publicized battle for reimbursement, pharmacies are getting smaller reimbursements and, in some cases, he said, losing money filling their patients' prescriptions. Musto finds it ironic that he loses up to 20 percent of his costs selling some drugs to his patients who use Medicaid, but he is still required to pay capital gains tax on the sales. "All of a sudden, there's a lot of debt you accrue by being busy," he said.
Slow payments from insurers also affect the pharmacies' bottom lines. He must pay his drug wholesaler in 15 days, but some insurers' reimbursements take six to eight weeks.
Musto said he's waiting to see if reimbursements change, but he's contemplating dropping two insurance plans. "I'm a Libra, so I'm always weighing the alternatives," he said. "But, if I don't keep the plans, I'm basically turning my back on those patients."
Musto said patients who cannot get their prescriptions might eventually wind up hospitalized. "Hospitals are the place everything rolls downhill to," he said.
Even if he loses money, Musto has another factor to weigh.
"I've grown up in Smyrna and everybody knows me," he said. "They're putting their lives in our hands."

ETFs vs. mutual funds: Cost comparison
With all things being equal—the structural differences between the 2 products give ETFs a cost advantage over mutual funds.
WILEY GLOBAL FINANCE
Index funds
For the most part, ETFs are less costly than mutual funds. There are exceptions—and investors should always examine the relative costs of ETFs and mutual funds that track the same indexes. However—all else being equal—the structural differences between the 2 products do give ETFs a cost advantage over mutual funds.
Mutual funds charge a combination of transparent and not-so-transparent costs that add up. It's simply the way they are structured. Most, but not all, of these costs are necessary to the process. Most could be a little cheaper; some could be a lot cheaper. But it's nearly impossible to get rid of them altogether. ETFs have transparent and hidden fees as well—there are simply fewer of them, and they cost less.
Mutual funds charge their shareholders for everything that goes on inside the fund, such as transaction fees, distribution charges, and transfer-agent costs. In addition, they pass along their capital gains tax bill on an annual basis. These costs decrease the shareholder's return on their investment. On top of that, many funds charge a sales load for allowing you the pleasure of investing with them. On the other hand, ETFs offer more trading flexibility, generally provide more transparency, and are more tax efficient than mutual funds.
Most actively managed funds are sold with a load. Loads for mutual funds generally range from 1% to 2%. Most of these funds are sold through brokers. The load pays the broker for their efforts and gives an incentive to suggest a particular fund for your portfolio.
Financial advisors get paid one of 2 ways for their professional expertise: by commission or by an annual percentage of your entire portfolio, usually between 0.5% and 2%, in the same way you pay an annual percentage of your fund assets to the fund manager. If you don't pay an annual fee, the load is the commission the financial advisor receives. And if your broker gets paid by the load, don't be surprised if he doesn't recommend ETFs for your portfolio. That's because the commission that brokers receive for buying ETFs is seldom as hefty as the load.
ETFs don't often have large fees that are associated with some mutual funds. But because ETFs are traded like stocks, you typically pay a commission to buy and sell them. Although there are some commission-free ETFs in the market, they might have higher expense ratios to recover expenses lost from being fee-free.
Investors often don't realize that most financial advisors are stockbrokers, and stockbrokers are not necessarily fiduciaries. Fiduciaries are required to look after the best interests of their clients over their own profit. Stockbrokers aren't obligated to look after your best interests. However, they are required to provide suitable recommendations for your financial status, objectives, and risk tolerance. As long as it's an appropriate investment, a stockbroker isn't obligated to give you the best investment in that category. A stockbroker who puts you into an S&P 500 index fund with a load is providing a suitable recommendation, but they are not looking out for your best interests, which would mean suggesting the lowest cost alternative.
To be fair, mutual funds do offer a low cost alternative: the no-load fund. True to its name, the no-load fund has no load. Every single dollar of the $10,000 that you want to invest goes into the index fund; none of it is whisked away by a middleman. The reason for this is that you do all the work that the stockbroker does for the average investor. You do the research and you fill out the forms to purchase the fund. In essence you are paying yourself the broker's commission, which you invest.
Most index funds and a small group of actively managed funds don't charge a load. No-load index funds are the most cost efficient mutual funds to buy because they have smaller operating costs. If there is one rule to investing in mutual funds, it is that you should try to avoid paying a load.
In a mutual fund's prospectus, after the load disclosure is a section called "Annual Fund Operating Expenses." This is better known as the expense ratio. It's the percentage of assets paid to run the fund. Well, most of them. Many costs are included in the expense ratio, but typically only 3 are broken out: the management fee, the 12b-1 distribution fee, and other expenses. And, it's not that easy to find out what fees are contained in the "other expenses" category.
In addition to paying the portfolio manager's salary, the management fee covers the cost of the investment manager's staff, research, technical equipment, computers, and travel expenses to send analysts to meet corporate management. While fees vary, the average equity mutual fund management fee is about 1.40%.
Most ETFs track market indexes, whereas mutual funds are more likely to be actively managed. Active management can be a good thing if the fund manager is talented and is able to outperform the market. However, there's no guarantee and you're still likely pay higher costs for a mutual fund than for passively managed ETFs in the long run.
12b-1 fees
Most mutual funds—including many no-load and index funds—charge investors a special, annual marketing fee called a 12b-1 fee, named after a section of the 1940 Investment Company Act. The 12b-1 fee is broken out in the prospectus as part of the expense ratio. It can run as high as 0.25% in a front-end load fund and as high as 1% in a back-end load fund. Many investor-right advocates consider these expenses to be a disguised broker's commission.
One thing can be said for the front-end and back-end loads: They're upfront about what the fee will be, and it's a one-time charge. Essentially, you go to a broker, they help you to buy a mutual fund, and you pay for the service.
This is not the case with the 12b-1 fee. While it is intended to pay for promotion and advertising, only 2% of the fees are used for that. The rest is paid to brokers for ongoing account servicing. Essentially, it's paid to the broker who sold you the fund on an annual basis, for as long as you own the fund, even if you never see the broker again.
ETF costs
In contrast to mutual funds, ETFs do not charge a load. ETFs are traded directly on an exchange and may be subject to brokerage commissions, which can vary depending on the firm, but generally are no higher than $20. While the absence of a load fee is advantageous, investors should beware of brokerage fees, which can become a significant issue if an investor deposits small amounts of capital on a regular basis into an ETF. In many cases, an investor interested in pursuing a "dollar cost averaging strategy" or a similar strategy that involves frequent transactions, may want to explore closely alternatives offered by mutual fund companies to minimize overall costs.
ETFs expense ratios generally are lower than mutual funds, particularly when compared to actively managed mutual funds that invest a good deal in research to find the best investments. And ETFs do not have 12b-1 fees. That said, according to Morningstar, the average ETF expense ratio in 2016 was 0.23%, compared with the average expense ratio of 0.73% for index mutual funds and 1.45% for actively managed mutual funds.
