An Update For Parents & Students
Xavier news
Dear Xavier Parents, Guardians and Students,
We look forward to seeing everyone in person on campus in August. We have missed all of our Xavier Gators.
Freshwoman Orientation is scheduled for Monday, August 10th, and we will greet all students on Tuesday, August 11th. Specific information about daily class schedules and other important information will be shared when available. While we anticipate our August opening, this is subject to change. Our classrooms will be equipped to accommodate distance learning, if necessary. (Please review and submit the Student Attendance form found in your GatorNet account by July 15th. Only one parent/guardian signature is required to submit the form.)
COVID-19 Preventative Measures:
All students, faculty, staff, and visitors will wear masks on campus. Before arriving at Xavier each day, every student, faculty, and staff member will complete a daily COVID-19 questionnaire online. Hand sanitizer dispensers will be available throughout the campus. Desks and instructional areas will be cleaned after each class. Daily cleaning and sanitizing of the facilities will follow a structured schedule. Deep cleaning will be under the direction of Sanitized Now Mobile Disinfection Service. Pursuant to CDC Guidelines, we will "encourage social distancing through increased spacing, small groups and limited mixing between groups if feasible." Temperatures will be taken as deemed necessary. Special protocols will be applied to choir, dance, PE, and athletics. The Nurse's room has been relocated to F111 to accommodate required entrance, exit, social distancing and isolation. (Click here for entire COVID-19 protocol).
Now, more than ever, Xavier's mission of educating young women of faith pursuing excellence respecting unity in diversity is critically important. Rooted in the charism of Xavier's founding religious community, the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary: freedom, education, charity and justice, we are a faith-filled community prepared to meet the challenges of our world as we pray, study, and implement the Bishops' Pastoral Open Wide our Hearts: The Enduring Call to Love (usccb.org/racism). We join with Bishop Olmsted and heed his call throughout the Diocese of Phoenix to combat the sin of racism, and to unite our voices with the Black community, people of color, and all who are working for an end to mistreatment, discrimination and injustice.
In all classes and activities, Xavier will continue to bear faithful witness to the love of God as revealed in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, His saving work in the Paschal Mystery, and His presence in the world and the Church. Through the curriculum we teach and our daily engagement with our students, we illustrate Christ's mandate to love God and neighbor. Following Sacred Scripture and Catholic Social Teaching, we affirm that everyone is our neighbor. As Dorothy Day wrote, "Christ is always with us, always asking for room in our hearts, and always inviting us to give him hospitality." He does this through the voices of those around us, regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, socio-economic status, gender, age, or any of the other ways we allow our differences to divide us. Xavier strives with our students to hear Christ's invitation more clearly and to respond together in faith, hope and love.
Christ is the reason for our school and, as a Roman Catholic institution, Xavier is deeply committed to the dignity of each and every human life. Our values and our Catholic identity inform all that we teach, impart, and encourage at Xavier. For that reason, we will continue to work with the Diocese of Phoenix Catholic Schools office, the National Catholic Educational Association, and the Secretariat of Catholic Education of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to ensure that our curriculum truly reflects our Catholic faith.
Preparing our students academically, spiritually, and morally, within the context of our Catholic faith, to defend human dignity and justice, whenever and wherever they are attacked, is a responsibility that we take very seriously. We are unified in our mission, and we will continue to work tirelessly to fulfill it.
Asking the guidance of Our Lady of Peace, we pray for and eagerly anticipate the 2020-2021 school year.

PINE, Colo. – The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help to find a developmentally disabled man who walked away from his campsite near Pine.
Travis "Cody" Dakota, 23, was camping with family near Forest Road 552 and Buck Gulch Trail in the Pike National Forest when we walked off at about 6:15 p.m. Sunday, deputies said.
Anyone with information on Dakota's whereabouts should call 911.


Sleep is an important factor in health. In addition to aiding in the healing of the body after injury, studies suggest that sleep can help boost the immune system, prevent disease, and ease depression. Yet a common complaint among service members and veterans with traumatic brain injury is difficulty sleeping. Many people with brain injuries also experience sleep disorders.
Mantua said historically people with brain injuries were kept awake to monitor symptoms, but that is no longer the guidance. "The general recommendation is the opposite: to rest, to stay in the dark, to not look at any screens," she said.
Sleep can be sabotaged by choosing to sleep at the wrong time, getting too much screen time before bed, or self-medicating. "A Better Night Sleep" podcast, produced by the Defense Health Agency, gives practical tips on sleep disorders and information on the evidence-based treatments that really work.
Patients and healthcare providers have access to resources for learning healthy sleep habits. The Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center recently released a Sleep Interactive Provider Training to teach military providers the evaluation and management of sleep disturbances following concussion in a deployed and non-deployed primary-care setting. The interactive training introduces the "Management of Sleep Disturbances Following Concussion/Mild TBI Clinical Recommendation" and companion clinical support tool. DVBIC also provides guidance to help primary care managers assess and manage sleep disturbances associated with concussion, including specific recommendations for managing symptoms of insomnia, circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorder, and obstructive sleep apnea. The healthy sleep fact sheet offers tips and exercises for patients to help get a better night sleep.
Listen to the full interview on the TBI Family Podcast.


View full sizeJim Commentucci / The Post-Standard Brenda Pfohl and her husband, Warren Pfohl, pose for a photograph Thursday in a guest bedroom in a wing of their home in Manlius. They are opening a bed-and-breakfast in their home for parents who care for children with special needs or terminally ill children.
Caring for 3-year-old Gavin Schafran, who has cerebral palsy and can't crawl or sit up by himself, is rewarding, but demanding work for his parents, Dan and Brandilee Schafran.
When the Camillus couple heard about David's Refuge in Manlius, they signed up to be some of the first guests to try out the bed-and-breakfast retreat for parents of children with special needs or life-threatening illnesses.
"A lot of times you feel like you're all alone," said Brandilee Schafran. "It can be exhausting, and you really need that repowering. When we stayed at David's Refuge, it truly was a much-needed break, and it was rejuvenating for us."
Warren and Brenda Pfohl, of Manlius, received so much support and encouragement during the 13 years they cared for their terminally ill son, David, that they wanted to the same for others.
They have created a bed and breakfast in a separate wing of their home originally built for David. The wing has its own private entrance, and home is set on 5 ½ acres on Frog's Whisker Lane, off Brickyard Falls Lane in Manlius.
David was ill for a couple years before he was diagnosed with Batten's Disease at age 9, a rare genetic disease that starts with vision loss and progressively attacks the whole body. When he died in October 2009 at age 20, his parents knew they wanted to do something to help others.
"So many people cared for us during those years that we knew we wanted to pay it forward," said Warren Pfohl, 52, who was pastor at Eastern Hills Bible Church in Manlius from 1996 until this fall when he resigned to pursue this venture.
"We had so much support, but we would see families where people had no respite at all," he said. "We recognized the desperate need out there. People need to catch their breath, and we want them to let us care for them while they do that."
Donations can be made to David's Refuge, 4440 Brickyard Falls Rd., Manlius, N.Y.
David's Refuge has become the couple's full-time mission, and a way to honor their son at the same time. The couple is using savings and investments while collecting a small stipend from David's Refuge to make it through the first year.
The retreat opens officially in January, although a few couples, like the Schafrans, have tried it out on an informal basis.
When David was ill, the Pfohls were given counseling and other help. The family got to go on a cruise to the Caribbean compliments of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
"We want couples who stay here to leave knowing they're not alone, because you can feel very isolated as a caregiver," Warren said. "We also want them to know what they're doing matters, and that they are loved by God."
The idea is for one couple at a time to stay free at David's Refuge, where they are pampered as much or as little as they choose. "We want to be unobtrusively available," Warren said.
Couples are greeted on arrival with flowers and a bottle of wine, and then can relax in the sitting room and watch TV, soak in the hot tub, enjoy their entertainment center, or play pool, darts or Ping Pong in the rec room. If they'd rather be active, the Pfohls will arrange outside activities for them at no cost, including a massage, skiing, sailing, biking and dinner out. In the morning, the Pfohls provide breakfast.
The Schafrans enjoyed appetizers with their hosts, soaked in the hot tub, slept in the next day and then each got half-hour massages before having a steak dinner.
"It was so repowering," Brandilee said.
The Jim and Julie Boeheim Foundation donated $8,000 to help pay or offset the cost of childcare for caregivers who stay at the center. In addition, several organizations and businesses have donated services at little or no cost.
The Pfohls are looking for funding on a more regular basis and donations are welcome. The pair say this become their full-time venture and they are dedicated to seeing it become a success.
The couple, who has been married 27 years, met at church. Warren said he asked Brenda to marry him just two months after their first date. Five months later, they were married. They have two children other than David: Chris, 25, and Daniel, 18.
"Everything we've been through has led us to this point," Warren Pfohl said. "There's nothing else like this that we know of. Our idea is to do one here, and then maybe we can grow it."

Michael Cohen Speaks Ahead Of Mueller Report Release
William Davis | Contributor
As Attorney General William Barr hosted a press briefing ahead of the official release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report, President Donald Trump's former attorney Michael Cohen promised that he would "tell it all" soon.
"Soon I will be ready to address the American people again … tell it all … and tell it myself!" Cohen tweeted.
Cohen was replying to a tweet from his attorney and Democratic political operative, Lanny Davis. (RELATED: Michael Cohen Adviser Grilled About Buzzfeed Bombshell)
Soon I will be ready to address the American people again…tell it all…and tell it myself! https://t.co/Ybk07AJBud
— Michael Cohen (@MichaelCohen212) April 18, 2019
Cohen worked with Trump for over a decade as his personal lawyer and vice president of the Trump Organization before turning on the president once he was indicted for fraud and perjury after lying to Congress.
Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison at the end of last year as part of a plea deal and is set to report in early May. (REPORT: Cohen Pitched A Book Idea Last Year Before Testimony Claiming Trump Is Not A Liar)
Cohen ripped into Trump during an explosive testimony before the House Oversight and Reform Committee on Capitol Hill earlier this year. During the hearing, Cohen referred to his former boss as a "racist," "conman" and "cheat" while also making clear that he had no evidence that Trump or his campaign colluded with Russia.
"Questions have been raised about whether I know of direct evidence that Mr. Trump or his campaign colluded with Russia. I do not. I want to be clear. But, I have my suspicions," Cohen said at the time.

About the NACDA
NACD Staff
Treatment/Rehabilitation
Early Warning & Emerging Trends
National Advisory Committee on Drugs and Alcohol
The NACDA was established in response to the drug problem to assist in our continued need to improve our knowledge and understanding of problem drug use.
The goal of the NACDA is to advise the Government on problem drug use in Ireland in relation to prevalence, prevention consequences and treatment based on our analysis and interpretation of research findings.
Drug Use in Ireland & Northern Ireland from the 2002/2003 Drug Prevalence Survey: Cannabis Results
Authors: National Advisory Committee on Drugs (NACD) & Drug and Alcohol Information and Research Unit (DAIRU)
Previously published findings in Drug Use in Ireland and Northern Ireland: First Results (Revised) from the 2002/2003 Drug Prevalence Survey (Bulletin 1) showed that cannabis was the most commonly used illegal drug in both Ireland and Northern Ireland across all time periods, lifetime (ever used), last year (recent use) and last month (current use).
This bulletin contains results relating to cannabis prevalence on a lifetime (ever used), last year (recent use), and last month (current use) in Ireland and Northern Ireland. It also examines age of first use; regular use; type of cannabis used; method by which cannabis is used; how and where cannabis is obtained; reasons for stopping use; attitudes to cannabis and perceptions of risk, together with the most common characteristics of typical cannabis users.

Chest Measurement: 35-37 Inches / 90-95 CM

Official Nike Italy away football shirt from the 2006 international season.

Condition of this original football jersey is 8/10 - Excellent. Some duplicating of the manufacturer logo prints on the shirt (see photos).
Fantastic looking shirt, ideal for a collection of your own.
After the Italian triumph in the World Cup, Lippi announced his resignation. 1994 World Cup star Roberto Donadoni was announced the new coach of the Azzurri on 13 July. Italy played in the 2008 UEFA European Football Championship qualifying Group B, along with France. Italy won the group, with France being the runner-up.
On 14 February 2007, FIFA ranked Italy 1st in the FIFA World Rankings, with a total of 1488 points, 37 points ahead of second ranked Argentina. This moved them up one from their previous rank, 2nd. The Azzurri had not received such an honour since 1993.

Q: How to deal with late data while retrieving real-time bitcoin price with finnhub.io websocket API I have to stream real-time Bitcoin information from finnhub.io API.
At the end of each minute period I have to print out the volume weighted average price.
The problem I face is that I don't really know how to deal with the late data.
The code below which I wrote does the job pretty lame, since it tracks the timestamp and when the seconds hit "00" it prints out the VWAP.
However this is not a good option since for the second "00" there are multiple records and sometimes data with the same timestamp comes late and the code executes again.
Here's the code:
import json
import websocket
from datetime import datetime

TOTAL_PRICE = 0
TOTAL_VOLUME = 0

def edit_message(message):
    for line in json.loads(message)['data']:
        price = line['p']
        volume = line['v']
        calculate_vwap(price, volume)

        print(datetime.utcfromtimestamp(line['t'] / 1000).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'),
              "price:", line['p'],
              "volume:", line['v'])

def calculate_vwap(p, v):
    global TOTAL_PRICE
    global TOTAL_VOLUME

    TOTAL_PRICE += p
    TOTAL_VOLUME += v

def print_vwap():
    global TOTAL_PRICE
    global TOTAL_VOLUME

    print("Volume-weighted average price:", (TOTAL_PRICE * TOTAL_VOLUME))
    TOTAL_PRICE = 0
    TOTAL_VOLUME = 0

def on_message(ws, message):
    edit_message(message)

    for data in json.loads(message)['data']:
        time = datetime.utcfromtimestamp(data['t'] / 1000).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
        secs = str(time[-2:])

        if int(secs) == 00:
            print_vwap()

def on_close(ws):
    print("### closed ###")

def on_open(ws):
    ws.send('{"type":"subscribe","symbol":"BINANCE:BTCUSDT"}')

if __name__ == "__main__":
    websocket.enableTrace(False)
    ws = websocket.WebSocketApp("wss://ws.finnhub.io?token=cahkkgiad3i7auh49eb0",
                                on_message=on_message,
                                on_close=on_close)
    ws.on_open = on_open
    ws.run_forever()

Don't mind the VWAP formula which is not correct at the moment. My main issue is to find the way to discard everything that comes after a given moment.

We're often tempted to put off the business of budgeting until tomorrow. We tell ourselves we'll start next week or maybe next month. Then, when we finally work out our budget, it often doesn't go to plan. We tend to spend more than we thought we would, and our buffer - that surplus of income over expenditure - erodes to nothing.
Sound familiar? Don't worry, you're not alone. But whether you like it or not, making a realistic budget - and sticking to it - will help you take control of your money in the long run, so you can get on with enjoying life.
For most of us, this is a matter of checking our payslip or salary credit and seeing what we get (after tax and super).
It's trickier if you're a contractor or self-employed, or if your income varies wildly from month to month, so you may need to use your last tax return to work out your weekly net income (after business expenses, GST and PAYG).
This is slightly more complicated - and easily underestimated. But getting it right is key to accurately calculating how much you're spending, and creating a budget that actually works.
Start by taking a good hard look at your bank statements. Go back over the past two or three months (don't forget the hefty costs that only come up every year - or less) and start recording your expenses in real time so you don't forget anything.
With your income and expenses written down in black and white, it's time to start grouping them into categories.
Housing expenses The biggest ticket of all includes your rent or mortgage. You'll have utility bills (gas, electricity, water etc.). And if you own your own place, you may also be due for home maintenance (repairs), home and contents insurance, and rates.
Food and drink Your groceries. But also your takeaway lunches and evening meals out. Don't forget those coffees - and the after-work drinks on Friday. Think about what you can cut back on here to make your budget healthier.
Transport This can be easily misjudged. Petrol, is just the start - there's parking, repairs, preventative maintenance, insurance and, if you want a really robust budget, an allowance for depreciation (with the money diverted to a designated 'car replacement' account). Or you can take public transport, but this also has to be factored in.
Communication Your mobile, internet and (if you still have one) landline charges.
Insurance Health insurance. Life insurance. Perhaps income protection.
Then there are other easily overlooked categories.
Health and wellbeing Medical spending (including the dentist) and pharmaceutical costs. Medical or private health insurance. Gym membership and sports club fees.
Life and leisure Holidays. Newspapers, magazines, books and DVDs. Movies. Pay TV. Christmas and birthday presents.
Debts Which includes personal loans, credit cards, store cards and other loans.
Miscellaneous Everything else (including uni fees, childcare, cat costs etc.).

It was dubbed one of the greatest grand finals in history, but apart from the final frantic 60 seconds, Ben Hampton hasn't watched – and never will watch – a replay of Melbourne's heartbreaking 14-12 loss to the Sharks.
The former Storm utility played a hand in his side's comeback as he threw the final pass to Will Chambers who crossed to give the minor premiers the lead, only for Andrew Fifita to barge over at the other end to put Cronulla back in front.
Melbourne had a chance after the siren to steal the win, but after the Steeden sailed through countless hands – including Hampton's on the left edge – the play broke down, handing the Sharks their first premiership.
"I haven't watched the whole game, to be honest. I've seen the last minute once and that was enough to put a bad taste in my mouth. I can't really explain it but I watched it once and that was more than enough for me," Hampton told NRL.com in the Allianz Stadium sheds after his new team, the Cowboys, booked an unlikely spot in the grand final against the Storm.
"Marika (Koroibete) got tackled five or 10 metres out after the siren and it was just such a heartbreaking moment that I try not to think about too much. I'll definitely use it as motivation to go that one step further."
Twelve months later, Hampton is preparing for his second grand final in as many years; a scenario he can scarcely believe.
What makes it even more remarkable is everything the Cowboys have had to overcome, from injuries to star players to three straight sudden death trips to Sydney against more-fancied opposition.
"I guess I've learnt that grand finals don't come easy," he said, although he confessed he was in a fortunate position to have reached back-to-back deciders.
"Every chance you get, you've just got to put everything into it because it might never come around again. The group that we've had this year, with the injuries and struggles that we've had at times, I think this group has taken their opportunities.
"This is the ultimate goal, isn't it? I think with this group and the Cowboys this year, we've always had the belief that we could do it.
"No one else believed in us but we always thought that we could do it and we deserve everything we're getting at the moment. We've had a pretty tough year and it's a tribute to the boys who have worked so hard for each other that we're in the grand final.
"It still doesn't feel real what we've achieved this year and I honestly can't believe I'm in another grand final."
How Hampton is used on Sunday night will depend on the situation, but regardless of what's asked of him the talented utility knows there are several non-negotiables he must deliver.
"Sometimes when I come on I only get limited minutes so I've got to come on and lift the boys in attack as best I can," he said.
"I've got to make sure that I defend well because I'm usually a target as a smaller body in the line, but my main goal is to try and bring a bit of energy in attack to lift the boys."
Making Sunday's clash even more special is the fact he'll be playing against the team with whom he shared all that heartbreak with a year ago.
The 25-year-old will be forever grateful for his four NRL seasons in Melbourne but couldn't refuse the opportunity to head back to North Queensland – where he went to high school – to work alongside guys like Johnathan Thurston and Jason Taumalolo.
"Melbourne were great to me and I'm forever thankful for everything Melbourne did for me because they started my NRL career," he said.
"I left home as a 17-year-old and I was gone for seven years down there, but the opportunity to come home to play under Paul Green and to play with the calibre of players the Cowboys have, I couldn't refuse it.
"I haven't even thought about that the fact I'm playing against my mates; I'm just soaking all of this up. I'll probably wake up tomorrow and realise that I'm playing all of the boys in the grand final."
Hampton still has plenty of good mates at the Storm, including Jordan McLean who is headed to the Cowboys in 2018. While the pair are close, relationships will be put aside this week as they duke it out for rugby league's Holy Grail.
"I lived with him for four years and I keep in touch with Macca all the time," he said.
"He asked me a few things about the club and I just explained what the Cowboys are about. He signed the deal to come up and it'll be great when he joins the club, but we'll have to put friendships aside on Sunday and then we can catch up when it's all over."

For completion of the PhD degree, competence in theory, in research methodology and in quantitative techniques is expected, as well as competence in the general field of criminology and criminal justice and in some specialization area within criminology or criminal justice selected by the student with Department approval. The necessary course work is determined on the basis of the student's previous preparation, needs, and interests. The determination of courses which must be made up is determined upon admission into the program. Courses which are needed to prepare the PhD student for his/her comprehensive examinations should be selected on the basis of advice given by the student's faculty advisor. If students admitted to the doctoral program have not completed the equivalent of CCJS 600 (Criminal Justice), CCJS 610 (Research Methods in Criminal Justice and Criminology), CCJS 620 (Fundamentals of Criminological Research), CCJS 621 (General Linear Models in Criminal Justice Research) and CCJS 651 (Seminar in Criminology), they will be required to complete these courses.
Starting in Fall 2016, all doctoral students must complete (1) CCJS 710 (Advanced Statistical Methods - Limited Dependent Variables), (2) CCJS 654 (Advanced Theory), (3) CCJS 720 (Policy Analysis), (4) CCJS 700 (Doctoral Research Methods), (5) five elective courses, one of which must be taken outside the department, and (6) an advanced course in statistics. CCJS 710 and the advanced statistics course must be completed with a grade of "B -" or better. In addition, students entering the program with an M.A. in Criminology and Criminal Justice will be required to take CCJS 650 (Research Practicum). CCJS 710 and the advanced statistics course must be completed with a grade of "B" or better. The candidate is required to pass the clinical assessment (see details in the Revised Program Guide) and then acquire at least 12 hours of PhD research credits (CCJS 899).
The University requires that a student must be admitted to candidacy within five years after admission to the doctoral program. In addition, the student must be admitted to candidacy at least one academic year before the date on which the degree is to be conferred.
The student must complete the entire program for the degree, including the dissertation and final examination, within a four-year period after admission to candidacy. One extension of time, either for admission to candidacy or for completion of requirements for the doctoral degree, may be granted at the discretion of the Department. Beyond that one extension, admission to the program terminates, at which point a student must reapply to the program. For further details, please consult the Graduate School policy manual.
Residence Requirement
The University requires a minimum of three years of graduate study and research for the Doctorate degree. Of the three years, the equivalent of at least one full-time year must be spent at the University of Maryland.
Registration Requirement
All graduate students making any demand upon the academic or support services of the University, whether taking courses, using University libraries, laboratories, computer facilities, office space, housing, or consulting with faculty advisors, taking comprehensive or oral examinations, must register for the number of graduate units which will, in the judgment of the faculty advisor, accurately reflect the student's involvement in graduate study and use of University resources. In no case will registration be for less than one credit.
Doctoral students who have been advanced to candidacy must register each semester, excluding summer sessions, until the degree is awarded. These students must register every semester for 899, Doctoral Dissertation Research. 899 will carry 6 credit hours and will be covered by a flat candidacy tuition.
Failure to comply with the requirement for maintaining continuous registration may be taken as evidence that the student has terminated the doctoral program. A new application for admission, with the consequent reevaluation of the student's performance, will be required of a student wishing to resume a graduate program, whose admission has been terminated under this regulation.
The courses submitted for transfer credit must meet the following criteria: 1) they must have received graduate credit from a regionally accredited institution where earned; 2) they must not have been used to meet the requirements for any degree previously earned; 3) the Department must certify that the courses are appropriate to the degree program of the student; and 4) the student must have earned a "B" or better in the course offered for transfer credit.
PhD Clinical Assessment
Full tenured and tenure-track faculty complete a clinical assessment of each doctoral student to determine if s/he should advance to candidacy. For students who enter the program with an M.A., this assessment will be during the spring semester of their second year. For students who enter the program with an M.A. in Criminology and Criminal Justice from University of Maryland, this assessment will be during the spring semester of their first year. Students who enter with a B.A. /B.S., this assessment will be during the spring semester of their third year.
This clinical assessment will include review and evaluation of:
Research competency (based on thesis or practicum research products);
Content knowledge (based on course performance and performance on a qualifying exam); and
Professional development (based on supervisor evaluation)
Please note that students receive interim feedback by way of completing a self-assessment each year. This self-assessment will include information pertaining to the three areas on which students will be assessed. The advisor will meet with the student to discuss the assessments each year, providing feedback to help the student prepare for the major assessment.
For more details on the examination, please review our Revised Program Guide.
After satisfactory completion of the comprehensive examinations, the student should apply for admission to candidacy. A student must be admitted to candidacy for the doctorate within five years.
It is the responsibility of the student to submit an application for admission to candidacy. Applications are made in duplicate and submitted to the Department's Graduate Office for further action and transmission to the Graduate School. Application forms may be obtained from the Department's Graduate Office or from the Graduate School.
The student typically has four years from the date of admission to candidacy to complete the degree requirements.
Dissertation Requirements
The Graduate School discusses the requirements regarding the dissertation in the following areas:
The dissertation must be approved by the department or program committee.
Directions for the preparation and submission of the dissertation are found on the Graduate School's website.
During the preparation of the dissertation, all candidates for any doctoral degree must register for the prescribed number of semester hours of Doctoral Dissertation Research (CCJS 899). At any one registration, the candidate may register for one to eight hours of credit as deemed appropriate by the student's advisor, providing the accumulation of credits eventually equals the 12 dissertation credit required. Ordinarily the student receives the grade of satisfactory until such time as the dissertation is finished.
Dissertation proposals should be approved by the unanimous vote of the student's doctoral dissertation committee. If the student's dissertation involves research with human subjects, approval of the Department's and University's Human Subjects Committees must be obtained. Advisors are aware of the appropriate procedures. Once the dissertation proposal is approved, a copy must be filed in the student's Department file.
Dissertation Committees
The dissertation advisor is ordinarily chairperson of the dissertation committee, but does not have to be the sole member of the committee on whom the student relies for advice and guidance. Whomever the student uses as principal mentor, however, she/he would be well advised to keep the dissertation advisor constantly advised on the progress she/he is making. The dissertation advisor is responsible for the composition of the Dissertation Committee.
According to Graduate School requirements, the committee shall consist of a minimum of five voting members, all of whom hold the doctoral degree. At least one of the five must hold an appointment in a department or graduate program external to the one in which the student is seeking the degree. A minimum of three members of the committee must be regular (and not associate) members of the graduate faculty of the University of Maryland. If the "outside" member is a regular member of the graduate faculty, this member is usually designated as the representative of the Dean of the Graduate School. This member sees that the examination is conducted according to established procedures. Any disagreement over the examination procedures is referred to the Dean's representative for a decision. One or more members of the committee may be persons from other institutions who hold the doctorate and are distinguished scholars in the field of the dissertation.
The Department requires that at least three members of the dissertation committee, including the dissertation chairperson, be from the Department faculty. The chairperson of a PhD comprehensive committee should be a regular member of the graduate faculty of the University and not an associate member. It is possible, in exceptional circumstances, for the dissertation chairperson to be an associate member of the graduate faculty. However, approval of the Graduate School Dean must be obtained. Also, this would not change the Graduate School requirement that at least three members of the committee be regular members of the graduate faculty. The minimum size of a dissertation committee is five members but it is possible to have six or more members.
In the semester that the candidate anticipates submitting copies of the dissertation to her/his dissertation committee, the advisor sends to the Graduate School a "Request for Appointment of Doctoral Examining Committee" form listing the names of the desired committee members, together with an abstract or summary of the dissertation. This form must be submitted to the Graduate School by the date specified in Important Dates. The candidate is responsible for seeing to it that the advisor has completed the form. The Graduate School Dean then sends to the advisor a form approving the committee for the oral defense and listing any incomplete grades.
Oral Defense
Complete copies of the draft dissertation must be distributed to each member of the committee at least 10 working days before the defense. The time and place of the defense are established by the dissertation committee chairperson. All defenses must be announced to the Department at least one week prior to the defense.
All final oral dissertation defenses are open to the faculty and graduate students of the Department. After the examination, the committee deliberates and votes in private. Two or more negative votes constitutes a failure. The candidate may only present himself/herself for final oral defense of her/his dissertation twice.
Dissertation Approval
After the dissertation is approved by the examination committee, the committee members sign the form sent by the Graduate School stating that the dissertation is completed. This form is returned by the chairperson of the committee to the Dean of the Graduate School no later that the appropriate date listed in Important Dates if the student is to graduate in the semester in which the oral defense is conducted. The candidate must submit to the Graduate School the original typed manuscript and one quality copy of the dissertation. The advisor must sign both copies to the Graduate School prior to the deadline. Finally, the candidate must submit the finalized dissertation through ProQuest Information and Learning Services as well as an Electronic Publication Form.
Application for Diploma
The candidate must submit the application for diploma to the Registrar's Office. The student must meet the deadline specified in Important Dates. The student must be registered for at least one credit in the semester he/she plans to graduate.
Statistics Requirement
The Department offers a variety of advanced statistics courses, all of which satisfy the requirements for the elective advanced statistics course. In addition, the following courses which might be approved for PhD students to meet this requirement:
ECON 626 Empirical Microeconomics
ECON 771 Advanced Labor Economics: Theory and Evidence
EDMS 657 Factor Analysis
EDMS 722 Structural Equation Analysis
SOC 630 Population and Society
SOC 653 Family Demography: Families and Social Change
SOC 709A Social Network Analysis
SURV 625 Applied Sampling
SURV 632 Social and Cognitive Foundations of Survey Measurement
SURV 701 Analysis of Complex Sample Data
SURV 722 Randomized and Non-Randomized Research Design
Courses on this list do not automatically serve as replacements for the advanced statistics elective - the student's advisor must approve the substitution prior to enrollment in the class. Students must file a Advanced Statistics Elective form with the Graduate Secretary signed by their advisor. In addition, many of the classes are upper level courses in the home department and therefore have prerequisites which may include permission of the instructor. It is the student's responsibility to obtain the necessary permission. Finally, this list is not comprehensive. PhD students can petition the faculty asking that another course on campus be allowed to substitute for the required advanced statistics elective. A successful petition should be signed by the student's advisor and the Department's Director of Graduate Studies. The petition should include a syllabus and a justification for how this course fits into the person's course of study. A decision will be made on the basis of course rigor and fit.

Who's the Copyright Owner of an Interview?
We take a lot of things for granted in life: The sky is blue…the grass is green…bearded dudes are awesome. But the longer I'm a business owner, the more I'm learning I must remove the rose-colored glasses and look at life through a skeptic's lens. I'm beginning to understand that I mustn't always assume we're all on the same page or share the same interests.
Not that everyone's out to get me or screw me over at every turn. But just that misunderstandings can and do occur. And that, as impersonal and time consuming as they may be to create, taking some legal steps to predetermine the obligations, expectations, and rights of all parties might just be the only way to play.
One assumption I recently reexamine revolved around the question: Who is the Copyright Owner of an Interview?
The primary context of my question relates to interviews conducted for content marketing purposes—not, for example, job interviews. For content marketing interviews, it always seemed obvious to me that interviewers owned the content collected from interviewees. At least in my experiences, the interviewers did the heavy lifting in preparing/conducting the interview and producing the finished work. But it appears it's not as simple as that.
If you made that same assumption, you may find the following helpful:
When is an interview protected by copyright?
From what I could find, the minute an interview is "fixed" it becomes copyrightable—meaning as soon as it is audio recorded, video recorded, or transcribed in nearly verbatim notes by the interviewer. The physical nature of the interview makes it "fixed." However, this "fixation" must be done with permission by the interviewee. So I'm sorry D'Angelo Russell, your Snapchat video of Nick Young would not be subject to copyright protection.
Who owns the copyright?
In researching this answer, I found several precedents. Some pointed to the interviewer, some pointed to the interviewee, and others pointed to shared ownership. But it does appear that, as long is the interviewee is aware an interview is taking place, the majority of the time the court sides with the interviewer as the copyright owner of an interview, unless it was a work for hire arrangement or a preliminary contractual release was made to the contrary. By agreeing to the interview, it was implied that the interviewer was granted a non-exclusive license to publish the content obtained in the interview. However, and this was interesting to discover, if a third-party was involved in recording the conversation, that party would have some right to the copyright ownership.
What are some best practices for interviews?
As an interviewer, it's best to audio or video record the interviews. And while recording, verbally declare to the interviewee that you are recording and confirm his/her permission to do so. Also, if any special arrangements were made prior to the interview, be sure to document those details in a written contract or on the recording. If you can only take notes during the interview, make sure they're as close to the original responses as possible. It appears that shorthand does not fully "fix" an interview.
And as an interviewee, unless explicit arrangements are set beforehand, you will most likely not be the copyright owner of the resulting interview. Of course, if you're concerned how you or your story might be portrayed, you can always deny a request for an interview when first asked.
And for both parties, abide by what you promised in word and in writing.
By no means is the aforementioned an exhaustive look at the topic of interview ownership. Please consult with a legal expert well versed in intellectual property ownership for a more detailed exploration and examination of your specific situation.

LearningRx (www.LearningRx.com), the world's largest personal brain training company, is celebrating the success of Sam, who saw significant changes in grades, academic enjoyment and confidence after completing a LearningRx program.
Sam came to LearningRx at age 12 because he was struggling in school and unable to complete his homework. Although he tried tutoring, his parents realized that it wasn't a problem that could be fixed by re-teaching the same information.
After completing his LearningRx personal brain training program, Sam achieved drastic improvements—and the changes have made him a successful student.
"I felt like my homework was easier to do and I could understand it better," says Sam. "My grades started to go up and I started to do better in almost all my classes."
His mother says his confidence went way up and the changes happened quickly after he started LearningRx.
Sam says his memory and attention are so much better. He adds that he'd recommend LearningRx to his friends because they'd enjoy the brain games and it can really help them with their academics.
"It was entertaining but it also helped me with learning," says Sam, referring to his experience with LearningRx. "I think it was a lot of fun!"

Lawyer M Ravi to represent S'porean facing death penalty in Vietnam pro bono
in Asia, Court Cases, Investigations & Inquiries
Left - Roland Neo with PA chairman, Lee Hsien Loong, Right - Mr Joseph Wee with his Belgian shepherd Nero
Human rights lawyer M Ravi will be representing Singaporean Cher Wei Hon, who is currently facing the death penalty for drug trafficking in Vietnam.
In a Facebook post on Monday (28 December), Mr Ravi said that Mr Cher's family had reached out to him following reports on the case of Siti Aslinda Binte Junaidi, a Singaporean facing death penalty in China for the same offence.
Mr Ravi said that he decided to take on Mr Cher's case on a pro bono basis as Mr Cher has three young children who are being looked after by his ailing mother.
"It is very sad that he does not have any lawyers currently on board giving him proper advice on his appeal according to his family. They were not sure even if he had a lawyer during his trial," Mr Ravi said.
"I just got in touch with a human rights lawyer in Vietnam and hope to get to the bottom of this case soon," he added.
While Ms Aslinda may be subject to death by shooting in China, Mr Ravi noted that in Vietnam, the death penalty is carried out through lethal injections.
Similar to Ms Aslinda's case, Mr Ravi said that Mr Cher's situation reveals that the death penalty targets the poor.
"Before one can judge Cher's innocence, it is important that he has proper legal representation and a fair process that metes out the punishment," he stressed.
Mothership previously reported that Mr Cher had said that he transported the drugs to pay off his debt.
Mr Cher reportedly became acquainted with a woman named Quynh at a karaoke parlour in Vietnam, from whom he borrowed VND200 million (S$11,832).
To compensate for his debt, Ms Quynh originally made Mr Cher transport iPhones and iPads from Cambodia to Vietnam.
However, she later tasked him to move drugs across the border.
Singapore's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) in August said that it is aware of the case and in contact with Mr Cher's family.
"Our Consulate-General in Ho Chi Minh City is rendering consular assistance to Mr Cher," MFA was reported by Mothership as saying on 13 August.

I was commissioned by Adweek to illustrate a new Target store for their publication called Brandweek.
Illustration for group exhibition in GIR store in Belgrade.
This is a personal project about streets. I like to discover different ways buildings could be connected.

The Unsolicited Sideshow is a pop-up exhibit and event series that will open in tandem with the Chicago Architecture Biennial at the Chicago Athletic Association. The illustration is for the exhibition catalog.
The illustration responds to the central ambition of the show: to explore how 'otherness' informs architectural expression.
New issue of ART + MEDIA Journal of Art and Media Studies is out with my 100 houses project on the cover!
Hey! The Best Summit of Cheap Laser Graphics will take place for the first time at the QUARTIER GENERAL, La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. The exhibition is starting with a Grand Opening on 18.05.2017, and ending on 04.06.2017.

Come to Other Side (24.03 -21.06.) if you are near Le Chaux de Fonds, Switzerland. My poster and many more are expecting you.
I started this project as a daily challenge. Free thinking about space is vital for an architect and I wanted to have some fun with spatial concepts. No restriction, the only rule I set was to get to it without a plan and keep it quick. I wanted to keep the unconscious engaged. The approach is a kind of problem solving. The solution is always surreal as well as the problem itself. I find this approach amusing, since I never know what the final outcome is going to be.
The sixth issue "Deathscrapers" of Chicago-based architectural magazine SOILED is being printed now with nine of my illustrations in it!
Dear Architecture book has arrived!
My first solo exhibition is set in Kolektiv gallery from today until the 4th of January! Thanks Kolektiv :).

ABUJA – A senior investigative officer at the Code of Conduct Bureau, CCB, Mr. James Akpala, on Monday, admitted that the charge against the suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Justice Walter Onnoghen, was filed before his team concluded investigation on the allegation that he falsely declared his assets.
Mr. Akpala, who is the star prosecution witness, PW-1, testified before the Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, where the embattled CJN is answering to a six-count charge that was preferred against him by the Federal Government.
The Mr. Dalandi Umar-led tribunal had in a bench ruling on March 11, granted FG the nod to call witnesses and tender evidence against the defendant who was suspended from office by President Muhammadu Buhari on January 25.
At the resumed proceeding on Monday, the prosecution, presented Mr. Akpala as its first witness.
Led in evidence by FG's lawyer, Mr. Aliyu Umar, SAN, the PW-1, told the tribunal that he was a member of a three-man team of investigators that uncovered alleged infractions in asset declaration forms the defendant submitted before the CCB.
The witness, tendered in evidence, six sets of documents that included a copy of the petition he said led to Onnoghen's trial, as well as his bank account details.
FG equally tendered through him, two asset declaration forms the suspended CJN submitted in 2014 and 2015.
The petition dated January 7, 2019, which was sent to the CCB by a civil society group under the aegis of Anti-Corruption and Research-Based Data Initiative, was admitted in evidence as Exhibit 1.
Awomolo said he would raise his client's objection to the admissibility of the documents, in his final written address.
In his Evidence-In-Chief, the witness, told the tribunal that the petition was handed to his team for investigation by his superior at the CCB, Mr. Samuel Madojemu, on January 9.
"The department responded. The two asset declaration forms were examined and filed in the case file", the witness stated.
Under cross-examination, the witness, told the tribunal that he was not aware that the CCB had a central register where asset declaration forms submitted to it by public officers are kept.
He said he also had no idea of the number of asset declaration forms the Bureau issued from 1993 to 2019.
The PW-1 maintained that the constitution mandated every public officer to go to the nearest office of the CCB to declare their assets.
Responding to further questions, the witness said: "I have never worked in the department where asset declaration forms are issued to public officers.
"I have never worked in the department where the forms are verified".
He said the petition was delivered to the CCB on January 9 and forwarded to his team on January 10.
"We requested for records of his accounts from the bank on January 11".
Asked by if he would be surprised to know that the charge against Onnoghen was filed on January 10, including the list of witnesses, the PW-1 said: "I cannot answer that question".
When he was shown a copy of the charge and the day it was filed, the witness said: "As at January 10, we had not taken the statement of the defendant. We concluded our assignment on January 11".
At that juncture, Onnoghen's lawyer asked him: "So Mr. Akpala, will I be correct to say that within 24 hours that the petition was received, investigation was concluded and an order secured from the tribunal to prefer charges against the defendant?".
The witness replied: "Yes that is correct. We requested for documents and they were forwarded to us, which we examined. Based on examination we conducted on the documents, the charge was filed".
Onnoghen's lawyer then asked him: "When you obtained statement of the defendant at the Supreme Court, around 1pm on January 11, you did not tell him that a six-count charge had already been filed against him?".
The witness said: "My Lord, I am an investigator, I do not work in the legal department.
"At the time the defendant recorded his statement around 12:30pm, the team had no idea that the charge had been filed.
"At about 2pm when we got to the office, we had not written our report then.
"We finished our report at about quarter to 3pm. The report was addressed to the Deputy Director Intelligence, Investigation and Monitoring".
Asked if he would be surprised to know that as at that 3pm when the team submitted its report, FG had already secured leave of the tribunal and preferred charges against Onnoghen, the witness said: "My lord I cannot answer this question.
"All I know is that we filed our report after we obtained statement of the defendant. We were not aware that the charge was already filed".
He told the tribunal that his team did not at any stage, involved the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, in the investigation.
Asked if he would also be surprised that some of the bank documents FG tendered in evidence against the CJN, was actually addressed to the EFCC, the witness said. " My lord I cannot answer".
Earlier in his testimony, the PW-1 told the tribunal that the defendant submitted the first asset declaration form as Justice of the Supreme Court from June 8, 2005 to November 22, 2014.
He said two Union Bank accounts were declared in the form.
According to him, the form was received and acknowledged by the CCB on December 14, 2016.
He said the second asset declaration form was when Onnoghen was appointed as the CJN.
In the form, he said the defendant declared five Standard Chartered Bank accounts and two Union Bank accounts.
He said the defendant also submitted the form to the CCB on the same December 14, 2016.
He added that after the team's work, an investigation report was filed.
Narrating how the investigation was conducted, the PW-1 said: "After the routine investigation process, the team wrote to the Department of Federal Political Office under the CCB requesting for the defendant's asset declaration records from 2000-2019.
"The two assets declaration forms that the team received were examined and filed in the case file.
"Other members on the team include Abu Simon Isaac, Deputy Director and Samuel Madujemu, Assistant Director all of Intelligence, Investigation and Monitoring.
"The petitioner was invited to make a statement and his statement was filed in the case file.
"On January 11, having examined the defendant's asset declaration forms, the receiving officer, Auwal Usman Yakasai was invited and the schedule officer, Ikpeme Etim Amba was equally invited and their statements recorded.
"The team proceeded to Standard Chartered Bank requesting for the defendant's account statement with the bank, account opening documents and certificate of identification. The bank responded.
"During examination, the team realised that the account opening package was incomplete and the account officer, Ifeoma Okagbue, was notified.
"She now came on March 6 with the complete account opening document and her statement was recorded.
"On January 11, at about 12noon, the team visited the defendant at his office at the Supreme Court of Nigeria, Abuja. We met his secretary, Jane Esu Edu, who led us to him.
"He read through the petition and gave an oral explanation to the team concerning the allegations contained in the petition.
"My superior, Madujemu, asked him if he was willing to record his oral explanation in writing or the team should go and come back some other time. The defendant said he was willing to record his oral statement.
"He brought out a plain paper but the team informed him that CCB has a cautionary form for statements and he was informed that he needs a witness to observe the writing of the statement who could be a lawyer or a reputable person.
"The defendant called his secretary, Jane Esu Edu, to witness the statement. She sat beside the defendant and the defendant recorded his statement in his own handwriting.
"Intermittently, he went to his inner chamber to seek audience with his visitors. After some time, he came back, continued and ended the statement. The defendant signed the statement and leader of our team, Mr. Madujemu and myself counter-signed", the witness added.
Meantime, shortly after the witness was discharged, FG's lawyer requested for an adjournment, even as he applied for a subpoena to be issued against officials of Standard Chartered Bank for them to appear and testify before the tribunal.
The CJN equally notified the tribunal that he was scheduled to appear before the National Judicial Council, NJC, on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Before the matter was adjourned till Thursday, the tribunal Chairman, Mr. Umar, said his panel would no longer accept any medical report from a private hospital.
"Henceforth, if the defendant gets sick or not able to attend his trial on health ground, the medical report must come from government hospital and not from a public hospital, we cannot accept that any more", Mr. Umar held.
It will be recalled that the CJN had on March 12 when full-blown hearing was originally scheduled to commence in the matter, failed to appear before the CCT over a claim that he suffered toothache and high blood pressure.
However, on the same day, the suspended CJN, lodged an appeal to challenge the decision of the tribunal to proceed with the trial despite a motion he filed to challenge its jurisdiction to entertain the charge against him.
He urged the CCT to abide by a subsisting Court of Appeal decision in Nganjiwa v Federal Republic of Nigeria (2017) LPELR-43391, to the effect that any misconduct attached to the office and functions of a judicial officer, must first be reported to and handled by the NJC, pursuant to the provisions of the laws.

Clever Stupid
Posted on June 4, 2016 June 5, 2016 by Joshua Tong
Hot Rod is one of my favorite movies. I've got its poster framed in my living room, and it'a movie that I've analyzed on this blog for its presentation of Rod's mustache as a symbol of self-actualization. It's also not a movie you'd expect to be analyzed, seeing as Hot Rod is, well, incredibly stupid. It's about a (bad) amateur stuntman who needs to raise enough money to save his stepfather's life so he can beat the crap out of him (and earn his respect).
Like I said, incredibly stupid.
But but but, what makes Hot Rod so flipping great is how well it harnesses that stupidity. It's not a smart comedy, and has no intention to be, but it's done really well. It's not just dumb jokes, well, it is, but the dumb jokes are couched with a great deal of craft. The team behind the movie (which happens to be a pre-"I'm On a Boat" Lonely Island) know exactly what they're doing throughout.
Because of this, laughs don't feel cheap. Yes, there'll be a throwaway gag involving Cool Beans or exactly how it is you proceed that elusive 'wh' sound, but the comedy is anchored in character. There's a strong central story, characters are fleshed out and have goals; the comedy, stupid as it may be, exists in tandem with the story. The characters don't feel like they're just there to be funny or laughed at; it is, put simply, a clever stupid movie.
So why does Hot Rod work?
Hot Rod doesn't talk down to its audience. Though the film's humor relies primarily on slapstick, non sequiturs, and downright silliness, never once does it treat its viewers as if they are idiots. In that process, the movie establishes that the audience is in on the joke. The movie isn't just trying to serve up something barely palatable for laughs. It also helps that Hot Rod isn't particularly mean. For all its silliness, Hot Rod lets its characters live. There's nothing vindictive about Rod falling in a pool, or Rod tumbling down a hill for an inane amount of time, or Rod getting hit by a van (again). We enjoy Rod's pain, but we're not interested in watching him suffer. Because, and this may be in part to blame on Andy Samberg's performance, we actually like Rod.
And that's the proverbial second shoe. Couched among all those silly jokes is that sense of character I mentioned earlier. Rod and his crew, Kevin, Dave, Rico, and Denise, don't exist just for the sake of jokes. Yes, they're funny, often outright hilarious, but amidst all that humor are genuine relationships. The characters feel real — well, as real as they can in such an odd world — and, as such, we get invested in them and their plight. We want these idiots to succeed, and we care about their relationships. Stupid as Hot Rod might be, it doesn't dispense with the humanity of the story.
That's the thing about Hot Rod, it doesn't just coast by on stupid and silly jokes, it actually bothers to create a story and characters for those jokes to exist in. Even though they aren't particularly groundbreaking, they're executed with enough of a precision that it works on a narrative level. As stupid as it can be, there is a great intelligence in its creation. The movie knows when and how to be silly, there's a deftness, a cleverness to its stupidity.
And that is how it's done.

The Loveliest Lullaby
Could there be a song that is universally known to all Christians and many more of other denominations? It is said that the Advent classic, Silent Night, is sung in 52 languages. It was composed 200 years ago this coming Christmas. Here is the story of how it all began.
Consider the catastrophe. A performance is expected, everything is set, anticipation runs high and then your organ breaks down on Christmas Eve. A mouse nibbling the bellows was suspected. One might consider some hopeful tinkering, but all is to no avail and there are worshippers waiting to give praise. What is to be done? Most church members would fall on to their knees and ask for guidance. This was presumably undertaken and in a flash guidance came with an authoritative ring and not without a portion of worldly logic. You call in the local maestro and his buddy and get them to compose something suitable for two solo voices and choir with a guitar accompaniment.
Thus the birth of a legend! A legend that gave us a song so obviously misnamed because Silent Night made an enormous noise in the music world and is still peaking to crescendo after crescendo as we enter into that special period of contemplation leading up to Christmas. In fact, there is hardly a night around Christmas that is not made sublime with amateur and professional renderings of this Advent classic. Even White Christmas with the added charm of Bing Crosby, and surely number two in the charts, is not likely to last as long.
Exactly 200 year ago, in 1818, one Joseph Mohr, a lay-priest in Oberndorf near Salzburg in Austria, wrote the text. He dropped in on his friend Franz Xaver Gruber, on December 24, mind, and asked him to write the melody and all the rest that goes into the making of a piece of music. Gruber was a teacher and performed the duties of cantor and organist at the church in Oberndorf. But he still managed deliver the same day, displaying the sort of spontaneous, one-off brand of inspiration that is sent straight from heaven to obey a command of great urgency.
Delivered and accepted, the song was premièred at the Church of St Nikolaus in Oberndorf and was immediately well received by the congregation. Mohr sang tenor and provided the guitar accompaniment. Gruber sang bass and the congregation rendered the recurring final two verses in each stanza.
Silent Night has six haunting stanzas and the melody is, of course, the perfect blend of simple magic and an appropriately gentle tone rising, ever so evenly, to a breast-swelling exaltation in performance. A cinch, in fact! Verity observed, the stuff that hits are made of.
The immediate region succumbed first to the song's charm, then Tyrol in the west of Austria, followed by Germany and the rest of the world.
Due to flooding in 1906, almost a century later, the original church of St Nikolaus was moved to another site and a plaque was hung in honour of the two, now famous, musical friends. In 1937 the present memorial chapel was built on the site of the old church and is, of course, a pilgrimage destination for Silent Night lovers from all over the world, including the international skiing crowd who realize that only fanatics ski deep into the night on Christmas Eve.
The chapel is a small, octagonal edifice with a capacity of perhaps forty persons. There are stained-glass windows depicting the two gents, Mohr and Gruber and Oberndorf. Nearby Arnsdorf, where Gruber lived, is also depicted. Adjacent to the chapel is a beautifully proportioned 16th century water tower. The Oberndorf Tourist Office is also located there at the Stille-Nacht-Platz (German for Silent Night Square).The Tourist Office also incorporates a museum containing an exhibition of all things relating to the Silent Night story and further exhibitions of local cultural, traditional and folklore interest. There is naturally a Christmas Market. One will buy things to hang on a Christmas tree, scoff hot sweet chestnuts and nibble at heart-shaped Lebkuchen, which is a traditional gingerbread biscuit mixed with spices. Men will drink cold beer in uncommonly cold surroundings.
At 5 p.m. every December 24, the Silent Night Memorial Celebration, which lasts about an hour, is held outside the chapel. There will be zither music and Glühwein (hot punch) for those who need defrosting. The famous song is naturally performed in its original form but there is also music rendered by a gloriously mournful horn quintet, large-bore artillery (a blunderbuss salvo, to be exact) is fired, words of reverence and prayer are offered and the simultaneous ringing of the bells of several churches in the area will permeate your whole being. Everyone stands around wearing ear-warmers, gloves and heavy coats; and stuff underneath, of course. Breath rises visibly in the icy air and one then dives into the bustling Stille Nacht Cafe for a jolly, festive revival of a more secular sort.
One might try the Sonderpostamt (Special Post Office) at the Tourist Office to send your Christmas cards stamped with a special seal, which is possibly more reliable than addressing one's wishes to the North Pole. The town's Musikkapelle, a distinctly brassy brass band, will be blowing high notes at regular intervals and will offer concerts every Saturday and Sunday during Advent leading up to Christmas.
The celebration has a very traditional approach, which somehow adds to the bustle and excitement of that last-minute feeling that gets you all hot and bothered and secretly pleased. One's cheeks will become rosy, there will be snowflakes on your eyelashes and you will be stamping your moon-booted feet all the while anticipating a really hearty dinner at a tavern that incorporates a restaurant of some quality. Look for somewhere with an open fireplace full of burning logs. Pork may be otherwise somewhat out of fashion, but not in Austria. Spoil yourself and ask for Schweinebraten (roast pork). It will probably come with dumplings and sauerkraut, which is an acquired taste but terrific once you get used to it.
And then there's that song! 'Taaaa diddy taaaa' you will go as you sit and eat. There will be warmth and good cheer everywhere and perhaps even a little tear in remembrance of the New Year past, and then bright anticipation of the New Year to come. This is how the world is meant to be!
Oberndorf is on the Austrian border to Germany, about a half-hour drive from the city of Salzburg within the province of the same name. There is plenty of public transport in the area. The nearest airports are at Salzburg and Munich. Local hotels are available but early booking is advised. The city of Salzburg is a good bet for spontaneous bookings. The Stille-Nacht.info site is also in English and offers a great deal of useful information.
