Home Featured Books The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
Taking us from Afghanistan in the final days of the monarchy to the present, The Kite Runner is the unforgettable, beautifully told story of the friendship between two young boys growing up n Kabul. Rasided in the same household and sharing the same wet nurse, Amir and Hassan nonetheless grow up in different worlds: Amir is the son of a prominent and wealthy man, while Hassan, the son of Amir's father's servent, is a Hazara, member of a shunned ethnic minority. Their intertwined lives, and their fates, reflect the eventual tragedy of the world around them. When the Soviets invade and Amir and his father flee the country of a new life in California, Amir thinks that he has escaped his past. And yet he cannot leave the memory of Hassan behind him. The Kite Runner is a novel about friendship, betrayal, and the price of loyalty. It is about the bonds between fathers and sons, and the power of fathers over sons – their love, their sacrifices, and their lies. Written against a backdrop of history that has not been told in fiction before, The Kite Runner describes the rich culture and beauty of a land in the process of being destroyed. But with the devestation, Khaled Hosseini also gives us hope: through the novel's faith in power of reading and storytelling, and in the possibilities he shows for redemption.

Daphne's Book by Mary Downing Hahn
Jessica is beside herself when Mr. O'Brien chooses her to be Daphne's partner in the seventh grade Write-a-Book contest. All the kids at school think Daphne is strange. She dresses bizarre, mismatched clothes and she never speaks to anyone. Jessica is in for a pleasant surprise, though, when she spends magical afternoons working on the book with Daphne and her little sister, Hope. As their friendship deepens and Jessica begins to see beyond Daphne's surface, she also comes to discover a tragic secret that Daphne must keep hidden from the world. Jessica promises never to tell anyone. But when the secret becomes a serious threat to Daphne and Hope, Jessica is torn between protecting her friendship with Daphne, and doing what she knows she must do. With warmth, humor, and finely wrought characterizations, Mary Downing Hahn weaves a poignant story that explores the limits of caring and responsibility.
Life Support by Tess Gerritsen
Control was the word Dr Toby Harper lived by. She strove to keep her life in order, her ER in order. But no one could have been prepared for the man she admits one quiet night to the Springer Hospital. Delirious and in critical condition, he barely responds to treatment. And then he disappears without trace. The subsequent search leads Toby to a second patient with the same infection. And it reveals an unsettling twist – the infection can only be spread through direct tissue exchange. Soon Toby's on a trail that winds from a pregnant sixteen-year-old prostitute to an unexpected tragedy in her own home. Only then does she discover the unthinkable: a terrifying and deadly epidemic is about to be unleashed …
The Great Gatsby captures all the romance and glitter of the Jazz Age in its portrayal of a young man and his tragic search for love and success. It is a rare combination: a literary masterpiece – and one of the most popular novels of our time.
Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner
It's been almost thirteen years since we last saw Cannie Shapiro, the heroine of Good in Bed, whose journey towards happy-ever-after made millions of women the world over laugh, cry and recognise themselves. The last decade of Cannie's life has brought some surprises. Her life story, in fictional form, became an unexpected bestseller, and Cannie has since retreated from fame's fallout, writing science-fiction under a pen name and praying that all her daughter inherited from her father, Cannie's ex-boyfriend Bruce Guberman, are her curls and her eye-colour, and not his predilection for smoking pot. Meanwhile Cannie's best friend, Samantha, is looking for love in all the wrong places, and Cannie's husband, Peter, has decided that he'd like to have a baby, and the family's first choice for a surrogate is none other than Cannie's flamboyant kid sister …

Androids and Aliens (Star Runner Series #3) – B. V. Larson
Two centuries after humanity colonized the stars, new dangers emerge. The peaceful inhabitants of the Conclave are threatened by expanding alien powers. Invaders threaten the star cluster, attacking our fringe settlements.
t's time for the humans to strike back! Vile, ant-like aliens have already consumed the colonies of the Faustian Chain. Known as the Skaintz, these creatures destroy all living things and carry them back to their nests to be devoured. Now, they've begun to invade the stars of the Conclave.
Captain Bill Gorman, a smuggler from the Fringe, is called upon by the Conclave rulers to scout the enemy. Fleets and armies are launched in a desperate attempt to annihilate the Skaintz before they consume Humanity.
Cloak of Spears (Cloak Mage #7) – Jonathan Moeller
A broken memory. A lost fortress. And a weapon that might consume everything.
My name's Nadia, and I serve the High Queen of the Elves.
My friend Neil Freeman also works for her, and he's the deadliest assassin who ever lived. He paid a high price for his abilities, including a damaged memory.
But his memory holds secrets that might destroy the world.
So when the mad wizards of Singularity come to rip open Neil's mind and steal those secrets, it's up to us to stop them.
Because if we don't, Singularity will build its new world atop a mountain of the dead…
Down Among the Dead Men (Daniel Faust #10) – Craig Schaefer
Daniel Faust's last heist ended with a betrayal, a bullet in his heart, and a plunge from a lonely back-country bridge. Now he's on life support, and the occult relic keeping him tethered to this world is counting down the last seconds to midnight.
That's the good news. The bad news is, he just woke up in hell.
Marooned, lost, and hunted in an endless city of the damned, Daniel is racing against time. If he can't make it back to his body before the clock runs out, he'll be trapped in the netherworld forever. A host of enemies stand in his way. Some are desperate to silence him. Others, ghosts etched in blood and gun-smoke, are hungry for payback. Hell is the one place where you can never outrun your past.
And in the land of the living, Daniel's family and crew gather to mount a desperate defense around his hospital bed as assassins close in from all sides. Survival will take a miracle, but this magician might have one last trick up his sleeve.
Dragon Heart (Blood of the Ancients #4) – Dan Michaelson and D. K. Holmberg
Rob must learn to control his icy essence, or he'll fall before the Ice King.
Having discovered the icy threat behind the Spread, Rob struggles to master control over his essence. None from the Dragon Queen's kingdom can teach him, and the Borderlanders know only life essence.
The only way to learn is to cross the Spread and find someone able to teach.
What he finds reveals a greater truth about his pure ice essence, where he discovers he may be the key to stopping the Ice King, but only if Rob can progress before he's destroyed.
Lightbringer (St. Tommy N.Y.P.D. #10) – Declan Finn
My name is Thomas Nolan, and I am a saint.
The first hint that something was wrong was when the corpse attacked a police officer.
When a director's daughter overdoses, that's one thing.
When she comes back as a zombie, that's a mission for NYPD Lt. Tommy Nolan and his new Joint Supernatural Taskforce.
But when he comes up against a conspiracy that goes back centuries, Tommy will need an army of light to fight off the darkness.
Strange Company 2: Voodoo Warfare – Nick Cole
The Strange Company is back and on the defense as the massive invasion of a major Monarch world gets underway and the weird warrant officers of Voodoo Platoon move into their roles as combat multipliers at the front lines of an incredible no-holds barred brawl for battlefield domination.
Facing Legions of Ultramarines, a weaponized population, and re-engineered combat veterans augmented by cybernetics, the stone-cold killers and ready-to-rumble rogues of Strange must hold a gateway landing zone against overwhelming odds alongside a newly christened private military contractor Mech Combat Team.
But the Ultras aren't the premier elite fighting unit of the crumbling Monarch Empire for nothing. Outcomes of Victory or Defeat aren't even on the table for this military death cult of galactic warriors the Strange Faces across a charred and dangerous battlefield… to the legendary Ultramarines, this is the last battle, the final conflict, and nothing less than their honor and a place in history are at stake for the finest warriors in the galaxy.
Reaper, Dog, and Voodoo platoons must play every dirty trick in the book of war in a desperate high-cycle ride-the-lighting defense of a bad LZ where both sides know what they do… will echo in eternity. And determine the future of human-controlled space.
The tragedy of the Strange Company continues on LZ Heartbreak. And…
Just because it's a bad idea, doesn't mean it won't be fun.

Home News & Events Blog CANHEIT Conference 2018
DAVID SMITH Chief Technology Officer, ORION
Education, Technology, Higher Education, Conference, Education Technology, cybersecurity, NREN, CANHEIT
CANHEIT Conference 2018
A few weeks ago, ORION's Director, Marketing and Communications, Cathy Bogaart, our Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) Farooq Naiyer and I attended the CANHEIT conference that took place at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Burnaby, BC. CANHEIT is the largest gathering of all the Canadian IT leaders in higher education, advanced research computing (ARC), and technological institutions. It was great to see many of our friends in attendance. The IT world is moving ever faster and, at CANHEIT, we were pleased to see that Ontario was well represented in these movements.
Compute Canada Townhall
Compute Canada's President and CEO, Robbin Tourangeau, and the CTOs from their regional partners, WestGrid, Calcul Quebec, Compute Ontario and ACENET led an open forum on current activities, key initiatives in the advanced research computing landscape in Canada. Our friends at Compute Ontario mentioned a health AI platform project, in which we were particularly interested.
Benchmarking Cybersecurity at Canadian Universities
Brian Lesser, Ryerson University's CIO and a member of our advisory group, led a discussion about Canadian University Council of CIOs (CUCCIO)'s cybersecurity benchmarking initiative. The panel was filled with CIO and CISO members from the project's participating organizations to talk about their findings. There is still a long journey ahead, but it was a start in working together on solutions. I was pleased to hear that CIRA D-Zone service improved cybersecurity scores for participants since we provide CIRA's D-Zone Anycast DNS service to all our users free of charge.
IT is a Strategic Asset (and Not a Utility)
This panel was comprised of the CIOs from SFU, U of T and Mount Royal University.
Key takeaways from this session were the importance and significance of the four pillars of technology: people, process, technology and data. Another important point raised was that, given the fact that there is so much dependence on IT, it should be as seamless as the utilities. The board and the executive management have now started seeing the strategic importance of IT and have realized the importance of IT governance.
Two Paths to Two-factor Authentication
Two-factor authentication for logging into our accounts is one of the best things we can do to protect accounts. Our good friends Brian Lesser (Ryerson University) and Jason Testart (University of Waterloo) discussed how post-secondary institutions are informing its residents on two-factor authentication, the many options, challenges and adoption for two-factor authentication.
Yikes – What Did I Get Myself Into? Confessions of a New CIO
A panel of newly appointed CIOs discussed and engaged with the audience in a session of questions and answers about their new roles. Two of our advisory group members, Bo Wandschneider (University of Toronto) and Gayleen Gray (McMaster University), who continuously help guide our strategies at ORION, shared their perspectives on the greatest challenges of their new roles and how they've adjusted. The new CIOs shared their initial plans and what those taking on a leadership role in IT can expect.
Securing the National Research and Education Network Federation Style
I joined a panel together with Gerry Miller (MRnet), Todd Williams (ACORN-NS), and Jill Kowalchuk (CANARIE) as part of Canada's National Research and Education Network (NREN). NREN security is an important layer to enable the highest performance standards and availability for Canada's research and education system. We talked about the NREN Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) project as one of our first initiatives in a new strategy to manage security threats for Canadian higher education institutions. I shared our experience with Ontario's shared CISO cybersecurity initiative pilot project, which has been driven by our community. Four big areas of focus to date have been security training, security guidelines development, security assessments, and a shared SIEM proof of concept.
The NREN's goal is to deploy a SIEM in each province and territory that can support the needs of the network and connected institutions in the future. Improving our cybersecurity capability is a big project. We can only tackle this effectively by working together at the institutional, provincial and national level.
Security Frameworks: Sharing University Models
Many Ontario technology leaders were interested in this session with CIOs from HEC Montréal, McGill University, and University of Regina. The panel shared their experience of leveraging the leading security frameworks such as ISO 27001, COBIT and NIST cybersecurity framework, and tweaking them based on their maturity level and their organizational needs.
Farooq asked them about the role of the board of directors in cybersecurity and most of them responded that they are in process of defining that.
Model for Cybersecurity Maturity Assessment
Tariq Al-Idrissi, Associate Vice President in charge of IT at Trent University, presented strategies in handling breaches in security, assessing the cybersecurity maturity of institutions in different methods and addressing self-assessment questions for a better understanding of our cybersecurity. The presentation provided templates for starting these self-assessments within our institutions. They're quite similar to the ones we've been using in our own Shared CISO group. The session mentioned that there is no such thing as "perfect protection", but we can always advance our tools in cybersecurity; we can always have make room for continuous improvement.
Rallying the Troops: Practical Tips for Raising Information Security Awareness
Although there have been many advancements in securing the network perimeter. However, humans remain the weakest link and the main target of security attacks. Wilfrid Laurier University showcased how we can communicate effectively with all the employees about security risks and making them aware of their responsibilities in improving the security posture of the organization. We were happy to see the role Wilfrid Laurier ITS is playing in security awareness since they are a part of our shared CISO initiative in which we are working on a collaborative security awareness framework for participating institutions.

How Does Air Quality Affect a Compressor's Operating Cost?
High quality compressed air reduces the need for maintenance, increases operating reliability of the pneumatic system, control system and instrumentation while limiting wear of the air-powered machines.
If the compressed air system is conceived for dry, oil-free compressed air from the start, the installation will be less expensive and simpler, as the pipe system does not need to be fitted with a water separator. When the air is dry, it is not necessary to discharge air into the atmosphere to remove condensation. Condensation drainage on the pipe system is also not required, which means lower costs for installation and maintenance. The most economical solution can be obtained by installing a central compressed air dryer. Decentralizing air treatment modules with several smaller units placed in the system is more expensive and makes the system harder to maintain.
Experience has shown that the reduced installation and maintenance costs for a system with dry compressed air will cover the investment cost of the drying equipment. Profitability is very high, even when drying equipment must be added to existing installations.
Oil-free compressors do not require an oil separator or cleaning equipment for condensation. Filters are not needed either and the cost for filter replacement is therefore eliminated. Consequently, there is no need to compensate for the pressure drop in the filter and the compressor's working pressure can be lowered. This contributes to improving the installation's economy even further.
A number of decisions must be made when dimensioning compressed air installation for it to suit different needs. Let us take a look at dimensioning a compressor system at high altitude.


A funeral is set today for a retired Indiana National Guard commander who testified in October that exposure to a lethal carcinogen in Iraq caused his cancer.
Lt. Col. James C. Gentry, 52, Williams, Ind., died of lung cancer Wednesday. His death is a poignant marker in a pending federal lawsuit; his life inspired a federal bill working its way through Congress.
"Gentry, who was diagnosed with cancer in 2006, last spring joined a federal lawsuit filed in December 2008. It accuses Texas-based KBR and several related companies of concealing the risks faced by 136 Indiana National Guard soldiers potentially exposed to a cancer-causing agent, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs.


An upcoming fieldtrip has been scheduled to the Walter P. Chrysler Museum on Saturday November 5, 2016 located in Auburn Hills MI.
The October Competition is Abandon, (give up completely, cease to support or look after (someone); desert, complete lack of inhibition or restraint.) The entrees are due to Jim by October 16th for the October 18th meeting.


The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) permits withholding of deportation to a country when "the Attorney General determines that [an] alien's life or freedom would be threatened in such country on account of . . . political opinion." 8 U. S. C. � 1253(h)(1). In general, withholding is mandatory if an alien establishes that he is more likely than not to "be subject to persecution on [that ground]," INS v. Stevic, 467 U. S. 407, 429-430. However, as relevant here, it is not available if the Attorney General finds that the alien committed a "serious nonpolitical crime" before arriving in the United States, � 1253(h)(2)(C). Respondent, a Guatemalan, requested, inter alia, withholding of his deportation by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. He testified at an administrative hearing that, in protesting various government policies and actions in Guatemala, he had burned buses, assaulted passengers, and vandalized and destroyed private property. The Immigration Judge granted his request, but the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) vacated the order, finding that his were "serious nonpolitical crime[s]." Applying the weighing test it had developed in an earlier decision, the BIA concluded that the common-law or criminal character of respond-ent's acts outweighed their political nature. The Ninth Circuit remanded the case, finding the BIA's analysis deficient in three respects: It should have balanced respondent's admitted offenses against the threat of persecution; it should have considered whether his acts were grossly disproportionate to their alleged objective and were atrocious, especially with reference to Circuit precedent; and it should have considered the political necessity and success of respondent's methods.
Held: In ruling that the BIA must supplement its weighing test by examining these additional factors, the Ninth Circuit failed to accord the BIA's interpretation the level of deference required under Chevron U. S. A. Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U. S. 837. Pp. 423-433.


In order to prevent artificial ripening tomato into markets to harm consumers' health, a double parallel genetic neural network identification system was designed. This system obtained tomato external color characteristic parameters (R, G, B) through the computer vision device and changed the RGB value into HIS value. Put tomato external color characteristic parameters as input, tomato maturity properties as output and verified the system with test samples. The test results show that, the correct recognition rate of the system is 93.8%, providing the reference for further research of artificial ripening tomato and natural mature tomato.

Winners and finalists
Swansea Maxillofacial Unit Team
The innovative work undertaken by the team in the Maxillofacial Unit at Morriston Hospital has helped to pioneer life-changing developments in the way surgical and prosthetic procedures are undertaken.
As a result of consultant maxillofacial prosthetist, Peter Evans' collaborative research with local and international centres of expertise, they have reduced the number of patient visits necessary to fabricate a realistic facial prosthesis from 3-4 times to typically once.
The Unit is involved in the world's biggest cleft lip and palate research programme funded by the Healing Foundation; they have developed multiple new techniques that make it possible to accurately reconstruct victims of facial trauma and disease; and have developed new tools to improve the accuracy of placing implants to attach facial prostheses.
Their work directly benefits over 2,000 Welsh patients per year, but also has positive impact to a much wider global audience. They have successfully balanced an extremely busy clinical workload with producing over 60 collaborative peer reviewed research articles, delivered many international conference presentations and developed training courses. This has been instrumental in making Wales a world-wide centre of expertise in the field of maxillofacial surgery and prosthetics, and a region to collaborate with to develop best-practice.
In recognition of his outstanding contribution to surgery in its widest sense, Adrian Sugar (Consultant Cleft and Maxillofacial Surgeon at Morriston Hospital) was awarded the highly prestigious, Down Surgery Prize, 2012.

Where are the rightwing evidence based bloggers?
Martin Robbins has a great new post up at the Guardian where he asks if liberal bias is science writing's elephant in the room.
At the conference of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology in Texas last week, Professor Jon Haidt caused a stir when he asked the thousand-strong audience of academics a simple question: how many identified as politically conservative?
In a nation where 40% of the population describe themselves as conservative, just three people out of a thousand raised their hands.
It's a good jumping off point for discussion, but might be overstating the case, as self reported labelling of political views tends to overstate the majority view. Social scientists would not normally ask a question like that, especially in public, because people are very influenced by prevailing culture in how they describe their beliefs and practises. This is why sexual behaviour studies talk about men who have sex with men rather than self identified gay or bisexual men, as those populations are not the same.
With that out of the way, it's easy to see why there might be an over-representation of left wing voices.
Blogging and science writing are an offshoot of public education, a progressive endeavour in the tradition of the left. Right wing scientists, more comfortable with a hierarchy, might not see the need to engage publicly
The bigger factor to me seems to be how far the public debate has shifted such that the standards used to judge ideas are generally those of the left, which extends far beyond science writing and stifles debate elsewhere. Schools policy is now generally judged by how successfully it meets the needs of the lowest performing children rather than increases excellence at the other end of the scale. Improvements in national health across the board are scrutinised for evidence of the inequalities of interest to the left (ie the difference in life expectancy between social classes) rather than inequalities in general, like that between the sexes, or indeed praise for the improvements in health that have benefited everyone, if unequally distributed.
Writers interested in applying an evidence based approach to these social policies or hot button topics like genetics come in for a lot of ad hominem, which is probably why they keep it to the journals.

Blanchardstown industrial unit seeks 'competitive rent' of €475k per annum
Clyde House expected to see strong interest from new and existing businesses
Clyde House occupies a high-profile site within Blanchardstown Business and Technology Park
Ronald Quinlan
Wed Aug 28 2019 - 03:00
Agent CBRE is guiding what it describes as a "competitive rent" of €475,000 per annum (€7.78 per sq ft / €83.82 per sq m) for a ground-floor manufacturing and production space of 5,669sq m (61,021sq ft) in Clyde House at Blanchardstown Business and Technology Park, Dublin 15.
The subject unit briefly comprises a main production area with a clear internal height of 4.1 metres and two dock levellers, and is finished with polished and sealed concrete floors. There is an extensive loading yard to the rear with a maximum depth of 35 metres. The area also incorporates office and amenity areas totalling 397sq m (4,273 sq ft) for the tenant's sole use.
Vehicular access to the warehouse accommodation is via secure electronic gates to the side of the premises. The enclosed concrete yard offers an ample circulation and marshalling area for heavy goods vehicles. There are 50 designated car bays available for the tenant's use. The main customer reception area for the building is staffed from the hours of 7am to 7pm daily.
Blanchardstown Business and Technology Park is located 4.8km from the interchange of the M50 motorway with the Navan Road (N3) and is situated just 12km from Dublin city centre.
The scheme has seen extensive growth in recent years owing to the standard of its offering and close proximity to the N3, M2, M1, the Dublin Port Tunnel and Dublin Airport. The property also benefits from rapid access to the M50 motorway which provides access to all national arterial routes from Dublin. The park also benefits from the provision of 24/7 security.
Existing operators at Blanchardstown Business and Technology Park include Digital Realty, K2, Equinix, Ipsen Pharmaceutics, Paypal, Ebay, Symatec, and D B Schenker.
Jarlath Lynn of CBRE says he expects to see strong interest in the space at Clyde House due to the "extremely limited" supply of quality industrial stock within the Dublin market at present.

Jane McAdam Freud memorializes her father Lucian
Visual artsjane mcadam freud l.a. gallery shows lucian freud my famous father woman artists
We met the artist, Jane McAdam Freud, here in Los Angeles at her September, 2010 gallery show in Beverly Hills, and found it very easy to converse and connect with her. She is a friend of arts·meme, and we are very honored to reprint her wonderful memorial essay to her father from The Guardian. We also send our condolences.
It is a week after the death of my father, Lucian Freud. My head is nowhere and everywhere. It is a very sensitive time for all the family. As such a prominent figure in the art world, "Lucian Freud" was public property. I felt I shared him, not only with the rest of our large family, but also with the art community. My hope is that I might focus my thoughts in tribute to him, for all that he has done for me – and for the many who have made it clear how close they felt to Lucian through his work.
As a child whose parents were both artists, I thought that art was the centre of the world. Although my mother, Katherine McAdam, was artistically talented – she worked as an art teacher and fashion designer while I was growing up – it was my father who captured my early imagination. I admired his work, which I saw in the catalogues he gave us. Perhaps it's not surprising that the Freud side of my family has always fascinated me. Continue …

SSC CHSL Preparation Tips 2019– The SSC CHSL Exam is the first and most important step to get recruited as LDC / DEO (Lower Division clerk/ Data Entry Operator). Those who want to achieve success in this exam certainly need a smart preparation plan. It is important to know the SSC CHSL exam pattern, marking scheme, type of questions, syllabus and duration before you start making your preparation strategy. The SSC CHSL 2018 will be a computer-based examination and it will have a multiple option type question paper with 4 sections namely general intelligence, English Language, quantitative aptitude and general awareness. Each section contains 25 questions. So, a total of 100 questions is supposed to be answered in 1 hours' time limit. It is to be noted that a negative marking of 0.25 marks is applicable on all incorrect answers.
However, the SSC CHSL exam contains simple multiple choice questions, but it has 100 questions to be solved in two hours which is certainly not an easy job. So, the candidates should concentrate on improving their speed of solving the questions with constant practice.
Try to solve questions as per your preparation; go for your strongest and less time-consuming segment first. If you are doubtful and slightly confused among 2 options, just leave that question in order to avoid minus marking.
This section of SSC CHSL question paper usually becomes a tough nut to crack for most of the people. Make your preparation strategy in such a way that you work on general awareness questions at least 1-2 hour everyday. Be aware of current affairs, economical events and international happenings; go through newspapers, latest magazines as well.
In general intelligence section of exam, questions might not be very simple and straightforward; the main idea in this section is to test your logical thinking capability. The candidates must have a theoretical clearness for verbal/non-verbal problems in order to successfully master the analogy, social intelligence, word building and classification related problems. Constant Practice is very significant for general intelligence; you can consider the questions asked in previous years and figure out the difficulty level.
The English language questions are always an easy way of scoring high in SSC CHSL exam if you have a decent level of knowledge about the language. The questions in this segment basically test your knowledge about preposition, adverb, adjectives and other grammatical components of English. If you want to quickly brush-up your English grammar, then try solving grade 12th English workbooks. Practice some new words everyday to improve your vocabulary. Summarize the idioms, proverbs as well as phrases from English language books. The comprehension part is equally important; the questions asked in this part are effortless and uncomplicated.
The quantitative aptitude section of SSC CHSL exam is slightly tricky; the candidates should have knowledge of several mathematical shortcuts. Generally, the quantitative aptitude part takes a significant amount of time to try solving more complicated segment. As stated earlier, a strong foundation in basic mathematical concept may help you get a high score in this section of SSC CHSL exam. Carefully analyze your weak point and give extra attention to it so that you can excel in that area.
If you make a smart preparation plan and execute it well, achieving success in this SSC CHSL 2019 exam will not be difficult. It is a good idea to begin your preparation well in advance. Aim to solve plenty of questions asked in previous years. It will give you an idea about the complexity level and overall structure of the SSC CHSL question paper.

Smooth organization, accurately selected panels, convenient and cozy venue. A very strong foundation for another successful series of events for European Gaming Media and Events."

Crowning 60 Years of Support and Advocacy
January 4, 2016 /in Faculty & Research Featured Stories /by Alyssa Bierce
Marcia Howard '54 considers UCLA her second home – no great surprise given that 20 campus committees and organizations have benefited from her leadership, advocacy and philanthropy for more than 60 years. Most recently, she contributed a lead campaign gift of $1 million to establish the Marcia H. Howard Term Chair in Literary Studies – with a preference given to environmental humanities or Shakespeare studies – in the English department. The inaugural holder of the Howard Chair is English professor Ursula K. Heise, who holds a joint appointment in UCLA's Institute of the Environment and Sustainability.
A retired insurance broker, Howard is a member of the Dean's Centennial Campaign Steering Committee and past recipient of the Alumni Association's University Service Award. In addition to the humanities, she has supported many other units and initiatives on campus, and she underwrites an annual faculty recognition event for the Fiat Lux undergraduate seminar program.
But it is her fervent belief in the importance of a humanities education that compelled her to endow a chair in the English department.
"The study of humanities is essential to all aspects of life," Howard said. "It teaches us to think, reason, write, and explore the meaning of what it is to be human."
Dean of Humanities David Schaberg said, "We are incredibly fortunate to have in Marcia Howard such a vocal and passionate advocate for the humanities. Her recent gift has highlighted the importance of endowed chairs, which recognize the work of our most distinguished faculty."
Longtime love of UCLA
A native Angeleno, Howard made frequent childhood visits with her family to UCLA from their home in west Los Angeles. In particular, she recalls building a snowman in the main quad after a rare snowfall. Much later, as an undergraduate, Howard was involved in several campus organizations including the homecoming and junior prom committees. She worked closely with Bill Ackerman, head of Associated Students from 1933 to 1967 and for whom Ackerman Union is named, who used to joke that she "majored in activities."
Howard studied at the Center for European Studies in Strasbourg, France, during her junior year, igniting a lifelong love of travel and European history and literature. After graduating with a B.A. in history, she resisted her mother's advice to go into teaching and worked as an activist in Georgia in the budding civil rights movement. Returning to Los Angeles in 1961, she found a job at an insurance company where she not only discovered her vocation but also met her future husband, Herbert, with whom she spent many happy years until he passed away in 2007.
Professor Heise awarded inaugural chair
Howard was gratified to learn that Heise, a renowned scholar in environmental humanities, would be the first to hold the chair. Environmental humanities is an emerging interdisciplinary field that brings together anthropologists, philosophers, geographers, literary scholars, historians, and new media scholars to study the influence of cultures on how we define nature. The field prepares graduates for a variety of careers including museum work, civic engagement, community organizing, nature education, literacy education, advocacy, business, writing, and the arts.
Heise received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2011 and is past president of the Association for the Study of Literature and the Environment. Her research and teaching focus on contemporary environmental culture, literature and art in the Americas, Western Europe and Japan; theories of modernization and globalization; literature and science; and the digital humanities.
Heise, who currently works on stories and images of endangered species in different countries, said, "You cannot even begin to think about these issues without knowing something about the sciences. In addition, you often have to know about certain social sciences and about the legal, governmental and historical dimensions that frame our concerns with endangered species. But the narratives are crucial: In the end, biodiversity conservation comes down to values, ideas and stories we tell about what animals and plants we want around, and which ones we'd rather do without."
Bringing literary scholarship to environmental discussions
According to English department chair Ali Behdad, literary scholars have until recently been left out of the debate regarding the environment, a field dominated by scientists.
"I believe that literary scholars like Ursula have a lot to contribute by educating citizens to make better decisions in an era of rapid environmental and social changes," Behdad said. "We are grateful to Marcia Howard for helping us to increase the visibility and impact of this important field."
Since joining the faculty in 2012, Heise has helped UCLA become a leader in the field, capitalizing on its location in a city marked by dense and diverse populations as well as an impressive mix of environments, from a thriving metropolitan region to ocean and desert landscapes and mountain ranges.
"Marcia's gift is very forward-looking," Heise said. "I so appreciate her belief in my work, which I hope will help people better understand and appreciate biodiversity and the stories we tell about endangered species."
For her part, Howard is convinced that faculty like Heise are vital to educating well-informed citizens of the future, and she feels privileged to have been able to make an impact.
Howard's philosophy is very simple. She said, "By making a gift, you receive a gift, and UCLA has certainly been a great gift to me."

Over time, some species become more tolerant of humans' presence, but the extent to which they do is largely driven by the type of environment in which the animals live and by the animal's body size, according to a comprehensive new analysis.
Anthropology alumna's gift makes research travel a reality for the department's graduate students
November 16, 2015 /in Alumni & Friends Featured Stories /by Alyssa Bierce
A UCLA alumna who has spent much of her life galloping around the globe has given $100,000 to establish an endowment in support of graduate student travel in the UCLA College's Department of Anthropology.
Dorothy Jewell, who graduated in 2006 with a bachelor's degree in anthropology, said that she hopes the Dorothy H. Jewell Graduate Student Travel Award Endowment will help students experience cultures outside their own.
"The experience of immersing oneself in various cultures is what anthropology is all about," Jewell said. "We can't be ethnocentric."
Specifically, graduate students in biological, linguistic and sociocultural anthropology will be given access to the travel stipends, allowing them to deepen their research beyond campus.
"UCLA is a highly rated institution that through its concentration on research makes our world better equipped to meet the future," Jewell said. "I'm proud to help students prepare for that future."
Jewell, who as a non-traditional student enrolled at UCLA when she was 55, had already travelled to around 80 countries before deciding to pursue her undergraduate degree.
After living in parts of Europe and Africa for months on end, including the time she slept under a eucalyptus tree on a Moroccan beach for seven months, two UCLA professors advised her to move beyond her community college courses and pursue a degree in anthropology at the university.
"I had already been living this anthropological experience," she recalls them telling her. "They recommended I make the anthropology direction more official."
Jewell always had an adventurous spirit. Following high school, she left her native Canada for what she thought would be a brief tour of Europe then never looked back. She met her late husband – also a UCLA graduate – in Norway when he was working on location for Disney, and they eventually settled in Los Angeles for his work in the film industry and hers in the travel business. Having discovered the riches that come with experiencing other cultures, Jewell continues to explore the world. Her next destination is Tanzania.
"Travel is an important part of my life, partly due to this nomad aspect of my personality that seemed to manifest itself when I left Canada," Jewell said. "I originally went to Europe and Africa for six months and it turned into five years. And ever since, I've had to have my travel fix."
Jewell's gift will now make those experiences possible to emerging anthropology scholars at UCLA.
"Seeing firsthand how other cultures and societies function is a vital part of being a successful anthropologist," said Nancy Levine, professor and chair in the Department of Anthropology. "Ms. Jewell's gift ensures that a new generation of anthropologists will emerge with the experiences needed to develop impactful and meaningful research."

Chicago Food To Go 11/20 & 11/21
Judge Judy Makes the Move to 4P & 5P on CW26


SAN DIEGO -- Left-hander Robbie Erlin views himself as a starting pitcher.
The question is, do the San Diego Padres?
Clearly, the Padres are holding pitching auditions these days, and Erlin is one of the five starters in the rotation. But will he remain there when Eric Lauer comes off the disabled list and Bryan Mitchell returns from an assignment that is as much about rebuilding as rehabbing?
And the Padres could also look at a couple other younger prospects over the final 40 games of the season.
As for Erlin, the Padres like the 27-year-old who returned this season after having Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery in 2016. Thus far, however, they like him more as a reliever, where he has a 2.05 ERA in 27 appearances out of the Padres bullpen -- often as the long man.
Wednesday night, he will be making his fifth start of the season as the host Padres attempt to avoid being swept by the Los Angeles Angels.
After struggling in his first two starts -- 12 runs (11 earned) allowed on 14 hits in a total of seven innings -- Erlin has pitched very well in his last two starts. He has allowed five runs (three earned) on nine hits and two walks with seven strikeouts over 10 innings on the road against the Cubs and the Brewers.
But Erlin wasn't exactly invited to make those starts. They came by way of injuries to Lauer and Luis Perdomo.
However, opportunity is knocking. If Erlin can keep pitching better than the younger arms the Padres are auditioning -- Walker Lockett was returned to Triple-A El Paso after three ineffective starts and Tuesday's starter Brett Kennedy is 0-2 with an 11.00 ERA after his second major league outing Tuesday -- he could force the Padres to alter their thinking.
Erlin will take a four-pitch mix -- sinker, four-seam fastball, changeup and slider -- into his first career outing against the Angels and 30th career start.
The Angels will counter with right-hander Felix Pena on Wednesday. The 28-year-old Pena has faced the Padres once before, as a member of the Chicago Cubs in 2016 at Petco Park. He allowed three runs on two hits and a walk in one-third of an inning.
WHIP and a .241 opponents' batting average.
Pena is 1-3 with a 4.95 ERA in 11 games (nine starts). He has worked 43 2/3 innings, allowing 24 runs on 44 hits and 17 walks for a 1.397 WHIP and a .256 opponents' batting average. Pena is 1-1 with a 1.84 ERA in three road starts this season compared with a 0-2 record and a 6.52 ERA in eight games (six starts) at Angels Stadium this season.
He didn't figure in the decision in his last start against Oakland on Friday in Anaheim, when he gave up three runs on five hits in 5 2/3 innings.

Founded on February 20th, 1996, F5 Networks Incorporated is headquartered in Seattle. However, its operations are spread out globally. The company delivers specialised application services and Application Delivery Networking (ADN) to a host of different clients, including government entities, enterprise businesses, consumer brands and service providers. Some of the areas where F5 Networks' services can help its customer base include the security, performance, delivery and availability of various software applications. Therefore, the company works directly with application developers to bring the best version of their programs to the masses. The popularity of FFIV shares earned it a spot in Fortune's list of the Fastest Growing 100 Companies in 2010 and 2011. In 2010, FFIV stocks were rated as one of the top ten best-performing ones by the S&P 500. Another crucial achievement for the brand came in 2015 and 2016 when it was named the best place to work in two successive years by Glassdoor. In 1997, the company launched its first public product, known as BIG-IP. The sole use for this product was that it could divert traffic from one server to another, thereby avoiding overloads. BIG-IP also came into play when a server became unresponsive. In these cases too, the program would divert any incoming data to a different server. In November 2020, F5 Networks launched their 5G portfolio to improve their services further when it comes to edge computing. Two new products were launched, named BIG-IP Service Proxy for Kubernetes and Carrier-Grade Aspen Mesh. Both of these services can support cloud-native 5G applications. Other notable achievements of the company include five awards in the Application Delivery Controller segment at the Information Management Awards. F5 Network was also voted one of the 50 best places to work for women in India in 2020.;
