text: I'm now on like page 285, and really enjoying the book. After going to church today, I went to hang out at the Levine's house in Oak Ridge, and read some there. I've got a funny story about hanging out there, but I need to get to bed (thought I would be able to continue to read but it's almost 12 now, and I probably should go to bed). Too bad I won't be able to read all day. If I continue to not have things to do at work tomorrow, I'm seriously thinking of leaving early to continue reading. My arms are not too tired and my fingers aren't numb, so that's a good thing. I really want to finish, and soon. I can't handle it much longer :).

German christollen | Homemade Recipe.
Origin: Germany - Region: Saxony.
A homemade German Christollen is a Christmas sweet bread filled with dried fruits and nuts, covered with a thick layer of icing sugar. It´s most common to start the Christmas season with this cake.
In a baking machine pour almost all the flour, yeast, egg yellow, milk, sugar, and 80 gr of soft butter. Let the machine work on low speed for 10 to 15 minutes. The dough needs to let go from the edges of the bowl. If not add more flour.
Place a baking towel on top of the bowl and let it rest in a warm place for 1 hour.
In liquid of your choice add the raisins, dried orange and walnuts. Let it soak in.
Work the dough for 5 minutes, and then add the fruits.
On a baking sheet place a baking paper and roll out the dough like a loaf. Cover with the baking towel and let it rest 20 minutes longer.
Preheat the oven at 180 degrees Celsius. Place the dough in the middle of the oven. Cook for 1 hour, but after 30 minutes cover the Christollen with aluminum foil.
Take out the Stollen from the oven. Melt the rest of the butter and brush the stolen with.
Sprinkle it with a thick layer of icing sugar.
Let the it cool down before serving it.

3.9 What's the best C* DWARF WRITER (API) around?
3.10 Is it possible to access local or global variables(i.e. getting their stored values) of a running program without stopping its execution using its debugging information?
Why is it called DWARF? And why isn't it spelled "Dwarf"?
It's a pun, since it was developed along with ELF, the Executable and Linking Format (nee Extensible Linking Format). Brian Russell, the original developer of DWARF, christened it the "Debugging With Attributed Record Formats".
Where did DWARF come from?
DWARF was orginally developed by Bell Labs for use with the System V debugger named sdb. This format was standardized as DWARF v. 1.0 by the PLSIG (Programming Languages Special Interest Group) of Unix International.
How can I submit a proposal to change or extend the dwarf-specificiation?
Please see Submitting A Proposal.
Is there a movement from proceedural languages to non-proceedural languages in today's application context?
No. DWARF is designed to describe compiled procedural languages such as C, C++, Java, Fortran, and similar languages.
What advantages does DWARF have over STABS?
DWARF is a block structured and extensible description of a program's source and how it is translated into executable code. It's easy to add new descriptions or extend the descriptions in DWARF. STABS is much more restricted in it's expressive abilities. It depends on predefined symbol and type definitions and is not easily modified or extended. Additionally, DWARF has facilities for describing a more complex execution environment, such as discontiguous scopes, stack structures, and stack unwinding, which STABS cannot.
Is there an archive for the previous mailing list hosted by SGI?
Is DWARF associated with XCOFF object format?
a specific implementation is not known. References to an implementation would be welcome.
What is the Software Licensing Agreement for DWARF?
You write that the DWARF standard (I mean the text) is under GNU FDL, but if you read read GNU FDL, you should have noticed that when something is released under GNU FDL it should be written in something which is widespread or at least readable as plain text.
How many DW_TAG_compile_unit entries per Compilation Unit Header?
Each Compilation Unit Header should be followed by exactly one DW_TAG_compile_unit or one DW_TAG_partial_unit, and the children of the DW_TAG_compile_unit or DW_TAG_partial_unit contain Debugging Information Entries for the unit. A DW_TAG_compile_unit or DW_TAG_partial_unit has no sibling entries.
Why doesn't the line table 'basic block' register have a reset operation?
The table is based on creating row entries, conceptually a row entry for every pc value in the executable text. All the booleans in the line table, such as is_stmt, basic_block, end_sequence, prologue_end, and epilogue_begin are reset by the creation of a new row in the table (see the individual opcodes that create table rows to see this). Each row in the line table is defined by a sequence of one or more line table opcodes and the opcodes precisely define the value of every column of every row.
How big is a DW_FORM_ref_addr?
In DWARF3, DW_FORM_ref_addr is clearly defined as being an offset into the .debug_info section so the reference value is the size of an offset. In DWARF2 DW_FORM_ref_addr was (confusingly) defined as being the size of an address on the target machine. The DWARF2 definition never made any sense and was a mistake in the DWARF2 specification: the field DW_FORM_ref_addr defines is an offset, not an address.
Whether producing DWARF2 or DWARF3, please use the DWARF3 definition of DW_FORM_ref_addr.
What is a state machine which is used to decode the byte stream of line and file debug information?
is to make the 'line table' be as compact (on disk) as possible while yet allowing very detailed line positions to be recorded. The state machine 'executes' line table 'instructions' and constructs a 'line table' in a form readily usable by an application (such as a debugger).
What is the basic logic behind the extended, standard and special opcodes?
The goal is maximum density.
The 'instructions', the opcodes, take as little space as possible yet faithfully represent much detail about the source lines (and how they relate to the object code). Most opcodes are special opcodes. These encode (in a single byte) both the opcode and a machine address and (effectively) a range of source lines. Standard opcodes take a bit more space and represent special information. Extended opcodes take even more space and encode a variable-length instruction.
This design is effectively a fourth-generation line table.
All generations being designed by one person (with help of course, and over several years). Earlier generations were originally used by MIPS COFF (generation 1) and Borland (generations 2 and 3?).
Is there a posibility to download a C source code to parse a DWARF-2 file?
Where do you find examples in C and other langs of using the exception handling and other features. Great for programmers to be able to look at working examples.
How can I parse the sections of .debug_info and .debug_abbrev which belong in a file format?
Are there any tools available for editing, compacting, or selectively removing DWARF symbols from object files?
Why does my debugger quit soon as I start debugging?
Please contact your debugger supplier.
Is there any software that can read DWARF data and output the size and offset of struct fields (and class data members)?
There is lots of information in DWARF and no tool presently does precisely this. Yet there are tools that make it fairly straightforward to get this information. Because C++ class information is complicated by its nature this is not a simple task. All the open-source codes mentioned below have license terms, be sure to understand and obey those terms if you use any code and applications mentioned.
Readelf is a GNU binutils application that can do many things, but one of those things is print DWARF DIEs and attributes as text. A script or program could read this text and find and interpret the desired information. If (instead of just running readelf) you borrow code from readelf you must obey readelf's license terms, of course.
The GNU gdb debugger reads DWARF directly from object files. That code could be adapted. Or gdb could be used itself as a 'backend'. See the gdb MI interface documentation for examples of one way to use gdb as a 'backend'.
Dwarfdump is an application (packaged with libdwarf) that can print DWARF DIEs and attributes as text. A script or program could read this text and find and interpret the desired information.
Libdwarf is a C library API for reading dwarf information (packaged with dwarfdump).
In addition to pretty-printing DWARF it can also be used to query the debug information, print debug info quality metrics, and verify the structural integrity of DWARF debug information. Llvm-dwarfdump is part of the LLVM project.
Where can I find a reference of the Dwarf debugging symbols produced by a GCC compiler on various platforms?
For information about how GCC or any other compiler implements DWARF, please contact the developer or distributor for that compiler.
Does visual studio .net support the DWARF debugging standard?
What's the best C* DWARF WRITER (API) around?
Is it possible to access local or global variables(i.e. getting their stored values) of a running program without stopping its execution using its debugging information?
This question is really about operating systems and debuggers and compilers, not so much about DWARF.
A short answer is that it is possible to access global variables in a running program from some debuggers running on some operating systems against applications compiled by some compilers. Whether one can find object information on disk (such as the DWARF information) for a running application also depends on the operating system. In most situations it makes no sense to think about accessing local variables as it's hard to tell at any point when any given local variable is still live: by the time one has finally determined a variable is live it may have vanished or moved.

Student loans are the reality for the vast majority of students. Unfortunately, many people get a student loan but do not know how this will affect them. Keep reading to learn more about the process of taking out student loans.
Know how long of a grace period is in effect before you must begin to make payments on the loan. This is generally a pre-determined amount of time once you graduate that the payments will have to begin. Knowing this can help you avoid hefty penalties by paying on time.
Do not worry if you are unable to make a student loan payment because you lost your job or some other unfortunate circumstance has occurred. When hardship hits, many lenders will take this into consideration and give you some leeway. Just be aware that doing so may cause interest rates to rise.
If you have trouble repaying your loan, try and keep a clear head. Many people have issues crop up unexpectedly, such as losing a job or a health problem. There are options like forbearance and deferments for most loans. Keep in mind that interest often continues accruing, so do your best to at least make interest payments to keep from having a larger balance.
Try paying off student loans with a two-step process. First you need to be sure that you know what the minimum payments for the loans will be each month. Second, you will want to pay a little extra on the loan that has the higher interest rate, and not just the largest balance. This will make things cheaper for you over time.
If you want to pay off student loans before they come due, work on those that carry higher interest rates. You may owe more money if you don’t prioritize.
Know how long the grace period is between the date of your graduation and the date on which you must start repaying the loans. Stafford loans typically give you six months. If you have Perkins loans, you will have 9 months. Different loans will be different. Keep in mind exactly when you’re supposed to start paying, and try not to be late.
Which payment option is your best bet? The majority of student loans have ten year periods for loan repayment. If this does not fit your needs, you may be able to find other options. For example, you might be given a longer time to pay. Keep in mind that this option comes with higher interest. You might even only have to pay a certain percentage of what you earn once you finally do start making money. Some student loans offer loan forgiveness after a period of 25 years has elapsed.
Select a payment option that works best for your situation. Many loans offer a ten year payment plan. If this isn’t going to help you out, you may be able to choose other options. You could choose a higher interest rate if you need more time to pay. Your future income might become tied into making payments, that is once you begin to make more money. Certain student loan balances just get simply forgiven after a quarter century has gone by.
Countless people need student loans in order to reach their educational goals. Responsible borrowing is critical to get the most from your scholastic experience. Use the tips from this article to simplify the process.
A quality education makes it much easier to succeed in life. Sadly, the cost of education these days keeps many people from attending. If you’re fretting about how you’re going to afford school, this article has tips to help you out. Use the tips that follow to your advantage.
Be aware of the grace period that you have before you have to pay back your loan. This is generally the period after graduation when the payments are due. Having this knowledge of when your payments are scheduled to begin will avoid incurring any penalties.
It is acceptable to miss a loan payment if serious extenuating circumstances have occurred, like loss of a job. A lot of the time a lender will allow a payment to be postponed if you show them you’re having a hard time. You should know that it can boost your interest rates, though.
Private financing is always an option. Although there are a variety of public student loans, it can be difficult to obtain them due to competition and demand. Private loans are easy to get and there are many options. Explore the options in your community.
Never panic when you hit a bump in the road when repaying loans. You will most likely run into an unexpected problem such as unemployment or hospital bills. Lenders provide ways to deal with these situations. Remember that interest accrues in a variety of ways, so try making payments on the interest to prevent balances from rising.
Pick the payment option that works best for you. A lot of student loans give you ten years to pay it back. Check out all of the other options that are available to you. You might be able to extend the payments, but the interest could increase. Consider how much money you will be making at your new job and go from there. After 25 years, some loans are forgiven.
Tackle your student loans according to which one charges you the greatest interest. Try to pay the highest interest loans to begin with. Any extra cash you have lying around will help you pay these quicker. Paying quicker than expected won’t penalize you in any way.
Reduce the principal when you pay off the biggest loans first. As your principal declines, so will your interest. Pay off larger loans first. After you’ve paid your largest loan off in full, take the money that was previously needed for that payment and use it to pay off other loans that are next in line. By making minimum payments on all of your loans and the largest payment possible on your largest loan, you will systematically eliminate your student loan debt.
It may be frightening to consider adding student loans to your bills if your money is already tight. A loan rewards program may help with this circumstance. Consider Upromise and other similar organizations. These are similar to programs that give cash back. When you spend, you get rewards that you can use on loans.
As discussed here, a lot of people want to go to college, but the high cost prevents them. Now that you have solid knowledge of how student loans wok, you need not be worried about paying for school. Remember these suggestions before you consider taking out a student loan.
Many feel that it is out of their financial grasp to receive a higher education. Higher education is costly; however, with good student loans, you can attend. The article below will help improve your situation.
If you have any student loans, it’s important to pay attention to what the pay back grace period is. Usually, there is a time period after you leave school before you must begin paying the loans. Being aware of this information allows you to make your payments in a timely manner so that you do not incur costly penalties.
Don’t fret when extenuating circumstances prevent you from making a payment. Most lenders have options for letting you put off payments if you are able to document your current hardship. Make sure you realize that going this route may result in increased interest.
You should not necessarily overlook private college financing. Public student finances are popular, but there are also a lot of others seeking them. Private loans are available, though perhaps not in the volume of federal ones. Find out whether there are any agencies in your area that have loans that can cover the cost of school books or other small needs that you must have covered.
Some people sign the paperwork for a student loan without clearly understanding everything involved. Always ask any questions that come up or if you need anything clarified. This is a simple way for the lender to receive a bit more money than they are entitled to.
If you wish to get your student loan papers read quickly, be sure that your application is filled out without errors. If you give information that is incomplete or incorrect, it can delay the processing, which means that you could end up unable to begin a semester, putting you half a year behind.
Stafford and Perkins loans are two of the best that you can get. These are both safe and affordable. The are idea, because the government shoulders the interest payments while you remain in school. The Perkins loan interest rate is 5%. The Stafford loans are a bit higher but, no greater than 7%.
Forget about defaulting on student loans as a way to escape the problem. The government has multiples ways to collect on debt. For instance, you might see money withheld from Social Security payments or even your taxes. They can also claim up to fifteen percent of your income that is disposable. Most of the time, not paying your student loans will cost you more than just making the payments.
Private student loans should be considered carefully before you sign. Understanding every bit of these loans is difficult. You may find it difficult to navigate through it all until after you are already stuck. You may not be able to get out of the loan then. Learn all that you can prior to signing. If a lender gives you a good offer, see if another lender will match it or do even do better.
Clearly, it is extremely expensive to get a higher education; therefore, you must be savvy about applying for student loans. With the right information and a measure of self restraint, you can navigate the world of student loans successfully. Use these tips when you start looking for a loan.

Definitely a unique story since it was so divided. It’s almost in different sections – a romance between the two mains, developing romance between others (who I guess will get their own stories?), the mystery the group has to solve together. Throw in strange kingdom politics, racism against certain breeds of magicians and groups, and you get this book. There’s some spark and fun and a little romance thrown in along the way.
Pacing was decent, but the main draw was the unusual world building. Historical paranormal fiction set with knights and castles and kingdoms, oh my, but throw in necromancers who aren’t the typical necromancers we’re familiar with, a bizarre breeding of demons, mad scientists screwing with nature, and you get a fun mixing pot of paranormal beasties that hold the interest even when the pacing slows down.
High Paladin Sorin was a bit hard to take sometimes with his almost unwavering dedication to the cause, but I didn’t want to strangle him long since he did eventually let intelligence and emotion over weigh brainwashing. Geez. The necromancer is filled with some angst (for good reason), but he’s the best character anyway. I dug their budding relationship overall, although it kind of got weighed down in the second half when the book started focusing on other relationships.
Megan Derr seems to like non-traditional sequences and divisions in her books, and this isn’t any different since its divided. Sometimes it stays interesting and sometimes my interest waned a bit. The overall arching mystery was a good one though, even if the relationships were slightly lackluster in comparison.

Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) Protocol is widely used in Europe, in public utility companies, and in global service provider networks. IS-IS was originally developed to provide routing for the ISO protocol stack, including the most commonly recognized transport protocol within that stack, Connectionless Network Service (CLNS). IS-IS was adapted to use for IP routing by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which has since added IPv6 routing and, most recently, Layer 2 routing capabilities to the protocol.
In IS-IS, a router is called an intermediate system (IS). Both terms are used throughout this document.

Stop advertising gear with images that clearly violate the Leave No Trace ethic.
Instead, set great examples of people camping using LNT principles.
Dude. What are you talking about?!
More specifically, I’m talking about images of camps set up right on the sides of lakes. They’re so pretty, but they’re so… wrong.
Please stop posting photographs of tents pitched less than 200 feet from idyllic lakes. Less than 100 feet from lakes. Less than 50 feet from lakes!

The Sierra High Route is a 195-mile long route charted through the backcountry — and along some existing trails — of the High Sierra Nevada. It was devised by noted Sierra climber and historian Steve Roper, and originally, discreetly, published in book form in 1982. I first learned about it in 2013 during my thru-hike when the wonderfully thought-full hiker “Manchurian.” Manchurian hiked a section of the Sierra High Route between Reds Meadow and Tuolumne, I’m not sure how much of it he conquered but I remember him telling me it wasn’t too hard, and that the only sign of humanity he found out there was a deflated helium balloon.
When the Pacific Crest Trail and it’s burgeoning “culture” totally disenfranchised me earlier this year, I made a rather knee-jerk decision to ditch the PCT and instead tackle that remote and “not too hard” Sierra High Route.
This is a post about trail angeling and trail magic on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), and why perhaps it has become detrimental to the trail and trail culture.
Between 2013 and 2015, whether because of the “Wild” movie effect or due to an influx of Appalachian Trail (AT) hikers wanting more trail time or even triple crowns, the population of thru-hikers on the PCT doubled. The Pacific Crest Trail Association (PCTA), a governing body of sorts in charge of maintaining access to the trail, again issued permits arbitrarily and for free — several thousand of them.
Everyone who goes out in the woods should know the seven Leave No Trace principles (LNT). In fact, if you’re caught by a ranger, especially in the National Parks, you might get asked to recite them to avoid getting a fine. This impromptu quiz happened to me, and stumbling through the answers got me out of a lot of trouble. Even if you don’t get stopped and grilled, these principles will keep you out of all sorts of other trouble.
Here they are. Study. Heck, write them inside your pack with a Sharpie. You can thank me later.
After being a nurse for a few years I started to notice that I talked about poop more than most other things. Even in mixed company. I found talking about poop… easy. And humorous. Why didn’t everyone want to talk about the funniest thing, ever, in detail, all the time, I wondered?
For me, poop is hilarious because we all do it pretty much every day, but nobody talks about it. The less we talk about something, the funnier it can be if poked at. Beyond that, it’s this incredible by-product and proof of our metabolism — our living. It’s also pure, stinky death. That’s fascinating! And with all the stories I accumulated having to do with poop in the hospitals, I could talk about it all day. I am not exaggerating.
Now poop is taboo, but what’s even more taboo is pooping in anything but a toilet.
My name is Caroline (AKA Puppy). Welcome to Little Package.
I've been blogging about this and that since 2000. Travels, food, bicycles, more travels... In 2009 I left an eight year career as a medical/surgical nurse and worked at home, crafting cycling caps instead. In 2013 I hiked the entire 2660-mile-long Pacific Crest Trail, and when I finished I knew the adventure wasn't over. I had been considering the RV life for years, so I bought a 1983 VW Westfalia van to "test the waters" of mobile dwelling. And off I go!
Cool, me too! It’s how Little Package Cycling Caps came to be. I’m not sewing caps right now, but I bet you could make your new favorite cap — yourself!
Keep in mind the holidays are coming up. Homemade cycling caps make fantastic gifts for cyclists!

The BBC radio programme Desert Island Discs has, over its seventy-five years of broadcasting, interviewed most of Britain’s great and good, and a few others. As anyone who has listened to the programme more than a few times will know, the format doesn’t change. Guests are asked to choose eight pieces of music that they feel they could live with over the longue durée if marooned alone on a desert island. In addition they are allowed one book – in addition to the Bible and a Complete Shakespeare, which it is assumed everyone will want – and one luxury; it is taken as given that the island will afford castaways enough food to survive.
The hope is that in the spaces between playing the records the guests will be amusingly forthcoming about their lives and careers and that they will rub along well with the presenters, who have been drawn, over the years, from some of the most talented figures in British broadcasting (Roy Plomley, Michael Parkinson, Sue Lawley, Kirsty Young). Guests should of course also be aware that their choices may affect listeners’ opinions of them: one who chooses a well-rounded selection of tuneful classical pieces, preferably including a few snatches of Mozart or Vivaldi, will in all likelihood go down better than one who confines his selection to the works of the Second Viennese School. Of course some people – and perhaps artists in particular – often care very little what people think of them and there have been a few cases over the years of performers – the singer Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, the pianist Moura Lympany – who it seemed looked forward to decades of splendid isolation listening wholly or chiefly to their own recordings. And while the guests were, over the years, overwhelmingly persons of middlebrow (or upper middlebrow) culture one could occasionally regret not being able to see the presenter’s facial expression when asking, say, Jimmy Savile or the pop singer Gene Pitney which book they would be prepared to read and reread in addition to the Bible and Shakespeare. Pitney chose “a giant book of Mensa puzzles” (was he trying to tell us something?) and Savile “a mail order catalogue”. On another occasion a famous blues musician chose “a book with pictures of pretty women”.
Few British public figures of the twentieth century can have had more of a claim to a high place among the great and good than the art historian, writer and broadcaster Sir Kenneth Clark. Clark was a high achiever from an early age, director of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford at twenty-seven and of the National Gallery three years later, and knighted at the age of thirty-five. It is remarkable then that, given his wide culture and, after the screening of the BBC2 television series Civilisation in 1969, proven broadcasting ability and massive public recognition, he never appeared on Desert Island Discs, particularly perhaps as his son Alan, the notorious Thatcherite minister, political diarist and upper-class bounder, did.
Clark’s biographer James Stourton (Kenneth Clark: Life, Art and Civilisation) manages to shed some light on this strange gap in the great man’s CV. It appears that Sir Kenneth was in fact invited by Roy Plomley to appear on the programme, and in its very first months, in spring 1942. In May of that year he wrote to accept the invitation but later changed his mind on being told of a stipulation that ruled out the broadcasting on air of any words in German or Italian, an “imbecile regulation”, he observed, that ruled out most opera. Stourton suggests that, whatever may have been Clark’s faults (aloofness and even arrogance, some thought), holding a grudge was not one of them, and so, he speculates, it must have been Plomley, still presenting the programme at the time of Clark’s death more than forty years later, who decided never to forgive or forget.
believed in the inspiration that art gives to the individual soul, and that access to good art is what matters. Central to this was a socialist viewpoint and the idea that the state could, with some reservations, support the arts.
When Clark became director of the British National Gallery one of his first moves was to press for the abolition of all entrance fees (this eventually happened during the war). He pioneered evening openings, which were advertised on the Tube, cut the length of public lectures from two hours to one and arranged for the publication of a series of “hand guides”, which were less unwieldy and intimidating than formal catalogues.
On April 30th, 1938 over 93,000 people attended the FA Cup Final at Wembley, most of them having travelled down from Lancashire and Yorkshire to support the two contestants, Preston North End (featuring a twenty-four-year-old Bill Shankly) and Huddersfield Town. Not many of those involved in running art galleries at the time (or indeed since) thought of football supporters as likely to be interested in what they had to offer. But Clark decided he would open the gallery early – at 8am –on the day of the match to give the fans the opportunity of looking at some paintings instead of just wandering around the streets. A later director, Neil MacGregor, has called this “a dazzling populist touch”, which it may well have been but it was also something more: whatever the number of actual football fans who visited the gallery on that day its director had sent out a well-publicised message that they, and people like them, were in future to be considered welcome there.
With the outbreak of war, Clark went to work for the film division of the ministry of information, despite having no experience of the sector. In this period of military defeat, confusion and fear, civilian morale was the great worry. Clark was involved in drafting material to be issued in the event of a German invasion. He was also concerned to counter German propaganda that while the pain of the war was being felt by British workers, it was being fought in the interests of safeguarding the interests of the wealthy. Clark and his political friends and allies felt it necessary to stress that the war could be won, was worth winning and that after victory things must and would be different. In 1940 he spoke to Edward Hulton, the owner of the popular magazine Picture Post, about the desirability of sketching out perspectives for postwar reform and reconstruction in some detail. This led, in January 1941, to a special number on “The Britain We Hope to Build When the War is Over”, with sections on planning, education, culture and recreation and a universal health service.
Clark believed that art and culture were central to the very values that Britain was fighting to defend, and that they should therefore be marshalled to articulate those values. In short, he wanted art not only to raise morale, but to show the public what they were fighting for. As Michael Levey observed, it was through the war that ‘Clark’s eyes were opened to the power of art, in its widest sense, over supposedly ordinary people’.
And thus the gallery came to host a picture of the month feature, when one of the more exceptional pictures from the Welsh underground hoard would come back to London and go temporarily on display. The National also showed the work of the official and temporary “war artists”, a group Clark had been active in recruiting, and ran special exhibitions, a total of thirty-four during the war years. The highlight, however, at least in terms of impact on the public, was the series of daily lunchtime concerts which the gallery hosted throughout the war and beyond (almost 2,000 in all). The concerts were the brainchild of the pianist Myra Hess, who performed at 150 of them herself.
Clark, however, also surely knew that “what we are fighting for”, or at least what he was fighting for, was encapsulated in the programmes of the wartime concerts at the National Gallery, in particular the stubborn conviction that culture does not observe national boundaries and that even if some now appeared to be intoxicated by the delirium of blood, soil and nation, Italian art and architecture or German music were the patrimony of the civilised in all nations. No wonder he didn’t take kindly to the small-minded restrictions of Desert Island Discs.
Our hope lies in an expanding élite, an élite drawn from every class and with varying degrees of education but united in a belief that non-material values can be discovered in visible things ... I believe that the majority of people really long to discover that moment of pure disinterested, non-material satisfaction which causes them to ejaculate the word “beautiful”; and since this experience can be obtained more reliably through art than any other means, I believe that those of us who try to make works of art more accessible are not wasting our time.

3M Fall Protection and their partner BEMO USA from Phoenix, Arizona have supplied and installed permanent roof safety systems to a new $1.2 billion terminal project at Sacramento Airport.
International design firm, Fentress Architects of California, USA, who are world renowned for their iconic public architecture specified Bemo’s roof system and 3M Fall Protection’s safety systems for the project.
The 3M Fall Protection systems ensure compliance with Cal-OSHA Regulations and enable continuous hands free access to all required areas of maintenance, preventing personnel from being exposed to fall hazards and work at height risks. Bemo’s team, supported by 3M Fall Protection personnel installed the Standing Seam Roof Anchors and Cable Safety Systems from 3M Fall Protection’s RoofSafe® product range, allowing building maintenance staff to carry out essential cleaning and repair works in the future to an array of roof mounted plant and equipment, including roof lights, vents, gutters and signage.
The RoofSafe Anchors, which are designed to absorb the energy that would be created in the event of a fall on the safety system, were fitted using non-penetrative clamps allowing the integrity of the roof structure to be preserved, whilst still providing comprehensive safety coverage.
Working with Bemo, 3M Fall Protection provided direct support to Fentress to ensure the system design layouts met with all future maintenance requirements for the buildings and that supporting technical information was provided to meet engineering approval and permit engineer sign off.
3M Fall Protection provided calculations and test data for the system designs to ensure OSHA compliance and that in the event of a fall on the systems, the forces were within tolerable limits of the roof system.
The 3M Fall Protection RoofSafe Systems are tested and approved by Bemo for installation on their roof system. Additionally the systems are tested to BS EN795:1997, ACR[M] 002 2009 Testing of Roof Anchors on Roof Systems and are CE Marked to the European PPE Directive.
The systems also comply with OSHA & ANSI safety requirements. Specification details are available via RIBA Product Selector/NBS which can be accessed via the Architects area on 3M Fall Protection’s web site. Alternatively, please contact 3M Fall Protection directly with your enquiry.

From left (back row) - Joshua Jones (captain) , Jada Jones, Iz Hustler, Christian Mason, Alyssa Inniss-Gittens, Christopher Cobley.
Four newcomers are in the Barbados team for the 2016 Caribbean Junior Golf Championships which tee-off on Tuesday morning at the Barbados Golf Club.
They include Jada Jones and Leiann Bynoe, who will play in the girls' 16-17 division, and boys Quinton Heljenek and Dominic Jordan in the boys' 11-13 division.
Other members of the 13-member team have all represented the island before in various Caribbean tournaments and will be looking to perform well at home in the three-day tournament.
Team captain Joshua Jones Jones said leading the team will be a new experience for him but he is hoping that playing on a course they know well will help them to stave off some stern competition expected from players from eight other Caribbean territories.
“ It is going to be a tough tournament but hopefully we can win. We are playing at home so most of the players know the course holes and we have been preparing ... so hopefully we do well,” Jones said.
Players from Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, the Cayman Islands , Puerto Rico, Trinidad and Tobago, the Bahamas, the USVI , Turks & Caicos and host country Barbados are contesting the championships over 54 holes.
The official opening ceremony and flag-raising event was scheduled for Monday afternoon at the Barbados Beach Club, the hosting hotel for players.
The Barbados Team for the 2016 Caribbean Junior Golf Championships include : Emily Odwin and Eryn Blakeley (Girls 11-13); Alyssa Inniss-Gittens (14-15); Jada Jones and Leiann Bynoe (16-17).
Boys: Quinton Heljenek and Dominic Jordan (11-13); Iz Hustler, Xzavier Wiggins and Oaziah Layne (14-15); Joshua Jones (captain), Chris Cobley and Christian Mason (16-17).

Have you been following on Facebook and IG?
Team Beachbody has launched a brand new option for its customers and coaches called the All-Access Beachbody On Demand Challenge Pack. This is the Netflix of Fitness, and it’s all mine! ALL Beachbody programs now AND released throughout the year. Steaming. Every single day, right to my screen.
Now, to get healthy and feel your best, the process has not changed. You have to put in the work to get the results- there is no quick fix- but there are now more options than ever to have access to the tools that can help you achieve the look and feel that you want! The results are waiting for you. Are you ready?
Beachbody came into my life almost 3 years ago, and I was reluctant to give it a whirl. I was sure I knew what I was doing. It was a pyramid scheme. I wasn’t that unhealthy.
And then my coach came into my life and I gave it a whirl. Her encouragement and belief in me and guidance in finding clarity in my goals led me to want more and better for me. For my family. And so it was.
I started with the 21 Day Fix and Shakeology and fell in love with Autumn’s rough edges and take-no-bull attitude. The energy from my morning shake was absolutely amazing and so infectious, even Dave added a Shakeology a day to his repertoire! After a few rounds, I moved to the Yoga program, then hopped around different programs in Beachbody on Demand.
Then came Core de Force. And I became a force to be reckoned with. …and as I come to a close on round 2 of this program, I am ever-excited for a new one! PiYO is coming up, my first 60-day program and it’s all available to me because of the Beachbody on Demand All Access Pass!
Day 30: MMA Plyo + Core Kinetics #CoreDeForce (RESULTS ARE BELOW) . . . . #workout #noexcuses #myjourney #weightloss #mma #beachbody #weightlossjourney #mauythai #boxing #fight #nevergiveup #workinprogress #health #wellnesscoach #fightforit #fitness #fitlife #fitspo #fitmom #supersetregimen #lifebydesign #30daychallenge #abs #strong #teambeachbodyteamspirit #teamrockstarfit #aisforadelaideblog Round One Results: Right Arm 10.75″ ➡10″ Left Arm 10″ ➡ 10″ Right Thigh 20.5″ ➡ 20.25″ Left Thigh 20.5″ ➡20.25″ Waist 28″ ➡27.5″ Hips 36.5″ ➡36″ Chest 35″ ➡34″ Weight 135lbs ➡137lbs All around, I have A LOT more muscle definition. After the first day of my workouts, I got my period, and, because being a breastfeeding mother my body is insane, I got my period again last week and it’s still here. I think this accounts for the 2 pound difference, as my body is mid-cycle again and wants to retain water. My chest is also measuring small, which I attribute to feeding Millie right before working out tonight. #motherhood Though I had a set back last weekend, I finished the 30-day challenge in the 30 days. I feel strong, confident, and cannot wait to do it again! I will be starting Round II on December 10th with an amazing challenge group (yes, there’s still time for YOU to be a part of it!), and doing workouts from @Beachbody on Demand until then!
Me neither! Every morning, I sneak out of bed, rolling over one kid and unlatching the other from my breast. By 6:15am, the dog is fed, I’ve brushed my teeth, and my workout is underway. Sometimes in the basement I’ve set up with a small gym, or my living room, so I can watch the sun rise. In the months leading up to being a morning person, I was working out at midnight, 1am, 2… No shame in this game. I wanted it that badly.
But more than that, the community surrounding me, challenging me, supporting me- they’ve given me the drive, motivation and extended family that’s closed the circle on each of my days. In the last half of 2016, I honed my athleticism, conditioned my routines, and came into the wife and mother I have wanted to be with the [huge] help of this community. I found support in other moms that were struggling to lose weight post pregnancy, juggle mom life and still find time for themselves. I’ve been given the opportunity to help others in the same way, and that, in and of itself is a blessing. I know that it is MY secret weapon to battling my mental health monsters, to feeling energized and healthy, and for giving these same gifts to my family. While it might not be everyone’s cup of tea it truly did and still does work for me and my family.
I am thankful for Beachbody’s innovation and dedication to providing the utmost support and accountability to their customers and coaches. I love that Beachbody is giving me the opportunity to share this opportunity to change your mind and body, too! On a completely digital platform, you too can have access to the best programs possible, to achieve your desired results- no matter if they’re physical or mental.

It’s seriously the only thing that worked for me! The progress others have found gave me such a boost to get started and I am so glad I did!

I love the shakes! I don’t do the videos, but workout at a gym that offer the classes and they are awesome.
I wish I could get to a gym… but I am much more consistent working out at home than I ever was at a gym!
Wow! You look amazing. Great job! Sounds like a great program to get into.
What a great result! You did a good job and it’s worth it! You are such an inspirational to me.
I have a friend who uses the Shakeology mixes in soooo many recipes. They are most certainly not for smoothies or shakes alone!
So true! We use it in SO much stuff here!
What an interesting program! And your results are wonderful. Funny too, I took an online quiz the other day that said this was my year of Beach Body. And I didn’t even know a program existed about it! Will check it out.
If there’s anything I can answer for you, please let me know!
I applaud your hard work and have may share of beach body dvds. After spending the last year rebuilding my health after an illness, I’m ready to up my game again back in my gym this year and hopefully back at my martial arts program by mid/end of year. Have an awesome 2017!
Great job on your transformation! I’ve been running more and plan to keep it up!
Very well wrote! I’m kinda into fitness and sporty enough but I want to get way fitter so this is very motivating!!
The Beachbody All Access pass will really help you find the programs that you love and work for you!
Love your story, you are very inspirational, Chelley! The Beachbody fitness programs are amazing, the Insanity workout is my favourite, I got amazing results after finishing the programme!

Tennis is a trio out of Denver who make beautiful retro pop songs, perfect for chilling out in the summer sun. Not surprisingly, pretty much all of their music videos also feature summer themes. “Marathon” contains footage from what I’m guessing is the south of France, and boy does it look nice there.
“Take Me Somewhere” features the whole band on a sailboat, which I believe is the place where they actually got the idea to start a band.
Finally “Waterbirds” features old Super 8 beach footage. The retro footage definitely fits the vibe of this song.

Some days I can’t digest the day’s news; I know I’m at risk of giving up hope for something specific, or my belief in general that humanity is good. On those days I don’t partake in what damages my faith, and feed instead on words and stories of inspiration, beautiful music or art, nature, or memories of previous victories over fear.
As for my confidence in a God of compassionate intervention, a God who can and will bring miracles to fruition in our lives, I oftentimes must “go it alone” to sustain my faith. When people (including some preachers and many, many Christians :) approach with metaphorical axes to hack at my belief in the mighty salvation of our God, I do whatever I must to protect what took so long to grow within.

text: It is well established that the utilization of unused millimeter–wave (mmWave) spectrum is inevitable due to unavailability of required bandwidth in the conventional RF band to support the high data demands of 5G. Large antenna arrays with beamforming capabilities are required to compensate for the high path–loss at mmWave frequencies. We are at the verge of a massive mmWave radio front-end deployment and low–complexity low–cost hardware beamforming solutions are required now at this stage than ever before. In this work, one such solution is demonstrated and analyzed. A high performance and low–complexity lens based beamformer consisting of constant dielectric material (εr) with antenna–feeds is presented for multi-beams operation. A prototype is developed based on the classical synthesis approach, and in line with the requirements of mmWave hybrid multi–user multiple–input multiple–output (MU–MIMO) systems. A characterization at 28 GHz is performed wherein uplink signal–to–noise–ratio of user terminals is evaluated with the zero–forcing (ZF) baseband signal processing. Radiation performance of a single source beamformer is measured in an anechoic environment and end–to–end ergodic sum spectral efficiency performance is estimated based on the measured data. It is shown that the constant–εr based beamformer solution is simple, yet significantly outperforms conventional antenna array beamformers with analog phase shifter network, making it a promising candidate for future hybrid massive MIMO systems.

CBP released the following The timeline is based on the current understanding of Felipe's last days and the hours until his death on late Christmas Eve. The following dates and times refer to local time.
Felipe was arrested with his father at a location about 3 miles west of the port of Paso Del Norte in El Paso, Texas, for illegal purposes.
This detection site is less than 15 minutes' drive from the port of Paso Del Norte, but groups can be held in the field until transportation is available.
Felipe and his father were transferred to the Paso Del Norte processing center. While they were being held there, they were given warm food, snacks, juice, and water, and the agents submitted six welfare checks to the El Paso border monitoring station.
Over the next two days, Felipe and his father were provided with showers, food, juice, and water, and the agents presented 17 welfare checks.
Border Patrol transferred Felipe and his father to the Alamogordo border post in Alamogordo, New Mexico, to complete the processing. They were transferred for capacity levels at El Paso Station.

The hospital staff performed several tests on Felipe for strep throat.
Felipe was diagnosed with the cold and administration of Tylenol.
He was examined for release and held for a fever of 103 degrees and recorded for further observation.
He and his father were taken to the temporary Highway 70 Detention Center. At the checkpoint, Felipe and his father were offered and accepted a hot meal.
agents gave Felipe a dose of the prescribed medication at the direction of the medical staff, and agents conducted several welfare checks that evening.
Felipe appeared to be ill and vomiting. The agents were aware of this and helped eliminate the vomit. His father refused further medical help as the child felt better.
Felipe once again seemed lethargic and evil.

We went to the City Nov 13-17th and it was incredible–our first time going together. Very sweet for many reasons.
We saw the Rockettes in the Radio City Music Hall’s Christmas Spectacular on opening day and it was FANtastic (thanks, Gma for the tickets!)! We were happily surprised by the quality and caliber of the show. Wow. Also, they had a full Nativity with camels, sheep, donkeys, and other animals! They read from the Bible about the birth of Christ–wow–and portrayed it in such a moving way. I had no idea that a show that receives so much coverage and visibility would even discuss the True Meaning of Christmas. Grant and I just kinda sat there afterwards thanking God that His message will be spread, even when we don’t anticipate how or when or through what means. Praise God. We also saw Wicked! Which is always a favorite! Grant had never seen it and it was great to experience it anew with him. We both laughed and [I] sang along. It was a great shared memory. What a story of love, friendship, ambition, salvation, redemption, and escape. Loved it.
There is skating at Bryant Park and at the Rockefeller Center (I was too tired to partake, but it was beautiful to watch). I ate lunch with Sara Dotts Barley (a friend from high school, now a newly wed on the upper east side) at Republic @ Union Sq West. The Barnes and Noble on the Square is amazing and their headquarters is just around the corner–very cool if you’re into books and happy places to read… which I am 😉 I also got to meet up with Lindsey Beth Medlen–another friend from high school who is currently starring in the Off-Broadway hit “High School Musical” as Sharpay! We ate in Midtown @ Brooklyn Bagels (the majority of which are NOT in Brooklyn). Great to catch up, as usual. The Village is always fun and young with great quick bites to eat an they’ve just finished up some work on Washington Sq Park–which is where I spent an afternoon, hanging out, reading, and sitting in the sun soaking up NY like a local. Central Park is magical, as always (post-Giuliani). We walked across the bridge (and thought of Brandon proposing to Kathleen), heard a saxophone player, and saw a woman doing yoga in the middle of a wayward path. We also went over to the West Entrance and crossed the street into the American Museum of Natural History (amnh.org). We were amazed at the sea life, Africa and Asian wild life and, of course, the dinosaurs. Plus, the ticket price is “suggested” so we went for a dollar each! Amazing 4 floors of unparalleled excellence (I’m a museum geek, what can I say?).
This trip was different for me b/c I took on nyc like a new yorker more than a tourist to see what life would really be like. We were trying to decipher whether or not law school would take us to the Big Apple. So we spent time eating at local digs, spending time in several parks, walking the brooklyn bridge (gorgeous), visiting the birthplace of TRoosevelt, the NYPublicLib, and exploring the Flatiron district. In fact, I fell in love with Gramercy Park and that whole area. Wow. Perhaps some day… It was great! I certainly had a blast, despite mono, though. That was a major plus.
We’re not sure where law school will take us–or even, if we’ll both go–but we’re prayerfully considering all our options, which, praise God, we have many of despite the recession. It was a wonderful trip with memories made together and I got some time to myself while Grant was working Monday and Tuesday to explore the city, mill around, do and see what I wanted to and spend time however I saw fit. Wouldn’t trade it for the world.
Ps. I have married the best man in the world. Thank God for Grant. He was a real trooper for traveling with me and mono. Marrying him is the highlight of my life. Thanks for making this trip great, babe. Love you.

Students in the departments of Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Product Design, and Art and Technology programs are required to own personal laptops. To participate effectively in the College of Design’s computer-integrated studios and majors, these students need to have unlimited access to computer based design applications and tools while working in their studio work-spaces.
Students in other departments and programs are not required to purchase computers, however open lab-computing resources are limited, thus it is suggested that every student have access to a personal computer.
It is highly recommended that you base your hardware purchase by the requirements for your major. The majority of the CAD and rendering software required below can be run on a Windows based machine, however Adobe Creative Suite/Creative Cloud can be run in either Windows or OS X. For departments that require OS X and Windows based applications, you can purchase an Apple computer and run Windows via Boot Camp. Please review the requirements if you choose to take this route.
The College of Design, Technology Services staff can help you, if you need assistance. Please open a help ticket in the UO Service Portal to ask your questions.
23″ – 24″ external monitor for greater screen real estate for design work.
Please Note: The average life cycle for a laptop computer is 3-4 years. Also, computing applications and requirements per major may change over the course of a student’s college career in the College of Design. Undergraduate students should be financially prepared for the possibility of needing to replace or upgrade their initial computer purchase prior to graduation.
The UO Duck Store and the University of Oregon Dell site both offer very competitive pricing for computers to accepted students. Other wise any computer store (Best Buy, OfficeMax) or web vendor (Amazon, Newegg) will offer a wide selection with decent pricing.
Software can be purchased via authorized online educational vendors such as Creation Engine, online via Amazon or Newegg, or in person at the Digital Duck in the UO Duck Store.
Students enrolled in the Department of Architecture (Architecture and Interior Architecture) are required to own a personal laptop computer, external monitor, and external mouse to assist with their studies. Laptops may be either a PC model from vendors such as Dell/Lenovo/Hewlett Packard or a MacBook Pro model from Apple. If an Apple computer is purchased, it is also required to purchase a Windows license and install it via Bootcamp as required software such as Revit and Rhino require Windows.
15″ laptop screen size is strongly recommended.
Students are expected to have a functioning data backup service such as an external hard drive or cloud based backup service.
Students farther along in their degree programs may also benefit from purchasing a secondary desktop workstation. Please consult with your professors before doing so.

Specific technical questions can be directed to College of Design Technology Services. Please read the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) below before e-mailing or calling.
What are my options for financial assistance?
We encourage all students required to buy a computer to return a “Plan to Purchase” form to the Office of Financial Aid. [Note: To view and download this information you must have Adobe Reader.] Forms are also available in your department office. The computer requirement may increase your financial aid eligibility. If you are not eligible for financial aid but need to borrow money in order to purchase your computer, you are encouraged to discuss loan possibilities with a UO financial aid counselor.
Contact the Office of Financial Aid at 1-800-760-6953 or 541-346-3221. Students who are normally not eligible for financial aid may qualify with the additional cost of the required computer equipment.
Consumer loans are available through banks and credit unions.
Leasing options are available through some computer retailers.
Apple offers income/credit based loans to qualified purchasers. There is no charge for pre-approval. Call the Apple Loan Program: 1-800-277-5356.
Where do I buy my hardware and/or software?
You may obtain the recommended hardware and software from wherever you wish, but we have made an effort to ensure that you get the best deal available by purchasing your computer from the UO Duck Store or directly from Apple or Dell.
For Apple computers, we recommend a visit to the UO Duck Store or the Apple Store for Education (select the Education section at the bottom of the Apple Store main page). Pricing is equivalent, however there is no tax if purchased from the Duck Store. The Duck Store may also have specials and sales that the on-line Apple Store may not have.
Order your Windows computer from Dell via our University of Oregon Premiere Dell site.
If you would like to shop in person, the Duck Store stocks all of the recommended Apple hardware and all of the required software. You can reach the friendly, knowledgeable staff at the UO Duck Store at 541-346-4331; ask for Computing.
Should I get a Windows computer or a Mac?
This is the hardest question to answer and also the most common. For the most part, Mac OS computers and Windows computers run the same software, including all Adobe and Microsoft software that students need to complete assignments. Most students will do fine with either one.
If you prefer one over the other, buy the kind you prefer. If you are unsure, verify with your department if there is a preference or review the program requirements above. Note: You can run Windows on a Mac via a separate partition or in a virtual machine via a program like Parallels.
Runs AutoCAD and ArcGIS (both are free for students): Yes Yes, requires purchase of Windows license and Bootcamp.
Initial price: A good machine can be had for $1200 and up. Slightly more expensive for similar specifications. Does allow the ability to run both Mac OS and Windows software.
How do I run Windows on my Mac?
There are multiple ways to get Windows on your Mac. The easiest and lowest-cost method is called Boot Camp. All new Macs come with Boot Camp built in. Boot Camp is what allows the computers in computing labs to run both Windows and the Mac OS. Run the Boot Camp Assistant, follow the instructions, and insert a Windows installation CD when prompted.
Other software that allows you to run Windows on your Mac includes Parallels and VMWare Fusion. These programs allow you to run the Mac OS and Windows at the same time. They cost money and since they require both operating systems sharing resources, may slow down your computer if doing heavy design or rendering work.
Should I buy a laptop computer or a desktop computer?
Laptop computers are strongly recommended or required depending on the program. They will allow you to participate more effectively in computer-based classes. Laptop computers have the major advantage of being portable and convenient, which makes them more useful and easier to support. The primary drawback is higher cost and theft.
If you would like the convenience of a desktop in your residence or if you have the ability to use one in your studio, Technology Services recommends purchasing an external monitor and keyboard/mouse to attach to your laptop.
Students who are well into their academic careers may also find that having a desktop workstation would be beneficial. Desktop computers should be considered as a second computer to be used with your laptop. Please consult with your department or professors prior to purchasing.
The recommended computers are powerful and expensive. Do I have to spend so much money for such a powerful computer when I’m just a novice?
Students who purchase a powerful computer will incur fewer upgrade costs later on in their academic career. A less powerful computer is much more likely to become outdated when you are two or three years into your program.
We expect that your computer will perform well for three to four years under normal use. You should plan to consider purchasing a second computer at some point during your academic career.
Can two (or more) students share the same computer?
Can I use the computer labs instead of buying my own equipment?
The UO and College of Design computing labs provide an alternative for students who do not have their computer on site. These university-supported labs are frequently congested at peak times, so access may be limited.
Will I be required to purchase more software later in my academic career?
You must purchase the software faculty require for their classes. You will have access to a full suite of software in the computing labs. Computing labs are a centralized resource College of Design students. The labs give access to software, scanners, and printers that would be prohibitively expensive for students to purchase individually and provide students a place to try out software prior to purchase.
Should I purchase the hardware and software separately?
We encourage you to do so in order to get the best prices.
Do I need to buy anti-virus software?
But if you purchase a Windows computer, you must install anti-virus software.
The UO has a site license for anti-virus software for Windows and the Mac OS. If you purchase an Apple computer, anti-virus software is optional.
Should I purchase an extended warranty insurance?
We urge students and parents to strongly consider purchasing an extended warranty with their computer for a minimum of 3 years. Warranties like AppleCare normally cover only non-accidental technical break downs, however companies like Dell allow you to also purchase accident insurance. It is best to always read the fine print!
We also strongly recommend coverage under renter’s or homeowner’s insurance, either yours or your parents’. You will probably need to declare your computer to include it in your coverage or add a special rider to cover your computer. Computer coverage is often inexpensive.
When will I need my computer equipment?
Please consult with your department as to when you will need your equipment.
Where do I set up my computer when I get it?
New graduate and undergraduate students should set up their computers in their design studios. Technology Services can help you with general set up and configuration questions or issues, however for major upgrades a visit to the UO IS Help Desk may be required. Please contact us for assistance.
Will my computer be safe in my studio?
We take precautions to ensure the safety of your computer equipment in all studio spaces occupied by the introductory studios.
Access control is provided in most studios. The doors to the studios have access control devices which require a code to enter. Note that if your fellow students prop doors open, the purpose of the access control devices will be defeated.
In many studios there are high-security desks that allow you to lock your computer in a safe box.
We highly recommend that each student purchase and install the recommended computer security kit. You can purchase it at the University of Oregon Duck Store; it is part of the recommendation above.
What if I want to buy a printer?
Having a personal printer is not required but can provide convenient and flexible feedback in the design process. Before you buy your own printer, you may want to do some research on the surprisingly high cost of operating an inkjet printer. Low-cost laser printing is available in the computing labs, and color printing is available in the Output Room.
How do I set up an e-mail account?
Typically new students setup their Duck ID’s when they go through IntroDucktion or via instructions received in the mail once initial deposits have been made to the university. Your Duck ID is the first half of your email address and can be managed at http://duckid.uoregon.edu. Students can use any computer with a web browser and an internet connection to check email via Webmail. Use your Duck ID and associated password to check your email.
More information about email and your Duck ID can be found at the University of Oregon IT website.
I have more questions, to whom should I address them?

The Simple Way to Care for Your Jeans. | A Continuous Lean.
The good people of Mr. Porter came to me a while back and asked if I had any thoughts on the best way to take care of one’s jeans. And as it turns out, I have indeed done some thinking the subject over the years. So we spent some time together coming up with a simple and authoritative video guide that lays out exactly how to ensure your denim always looks its best.
In the early days of ACL (way back in 2008) I wrote a little something to clarify my thoughts on how to best go about washing your jeans. Lately it seems to me that a lot of people have really gone crazy trying to over complicate the process of taking care of your denim. I’ve never been a believer in washing my clothes in the ocean, or doing my laundry in my freezer. I’d rather just find a simple way to make my jeans look nice, smell good and age as perfectly as possible without taking up too much time or energy. Because anyone who likes denim can tell you that there’s something really amazing about taking a pair of raw denim, having it mold to your body and creating something which is completely one of a kind. That’s what makes denim maintenance so impactful. Though it’s not so important you need to rolling around the surf in your special new 14oz White Oaks.
I’m a big fan of raw denim jeans and agree with all of your suggestions except for the recommendation not to wash them for six months. I feel that an initial rinse in a cool bath will insure a much longer life for them. By doing so, most of the startch is removed and the weave of the fiber is tightened, resulting in a more flexible fabric, preventing breakage. Also, you will have a much better idea how they will really fit. And since most high end jeans must be hemmed, one has a better sense of the desired length once they’ve been submerged in water.
The Mr Porter vids are always really easy to watch and fun, this has and extra bit of oompf right?
Reluctance to wash one’s clothes until one can no longer tolerate the stench is truly the endgame of hipster pretension.
I like this site, but those of you who treat workwear like a courtier of Louis XVI might have treated his collection of powdered wigs have completely lost the plot.
One day soon you will look back at your behavior and shake your heads in disbelief.
Yuck is right. And good luck getting a date wearing a stinking pair of jeans.
Raw indigo dyed denim = Holistic ,mindful dressing!
Hygiene trolling at its best.
As Christian McCann of Left Field says, “If you want to trash your jeans, don’t wash them”.
Simple. Wear for a few days to set whiskers honeycombs etc. then warm soak to shrink a bit. Another soak with Castile soap when they start to smell. Honestly that could take months. After a while I just turn inside our and wash in machine on cold and hang dry.
Great video. I agree 100%.
I think of raw denim jeans the same way I think about wool dress pants. I wear them when I won’t be getting sweaty and dirty. Regular jeans that can go through the wash get worn on those days.
I wear raw denim jeans for 1 day or 2 days max then hang them up. By having a few pair they are rotated for a while before I wear them again. It’s MONTHS between washings. I’ve had a couple pair I don’t think I’ve ever washed. They don’t smell at all.
Putting them in a paper bag in the freezer for a few days seems to freshen them up. Putting them in a “drytel” bag in the dryer seems to freshen them up if needed too.
Saw this on Devour, great stuff man.
Anyone know what kind of sweater he’s wearing in the video?
How did the classic work pant devolve into something akin to Marie Antoinette’s delicates? This is just crazy — except for the dryer part. My dryer broke and I was forced to hang clothes on the line until I got the cash for a new one. Surprise. My hung clothes looked and felt better, and showed little sign of wear compared to the same items dried to death in a dryer. Never put your favorite clothes in a dryer — they’ll last 3 or 4 times as long.
Simple but good advices about jeans, thanks!

I use Mikasa dishes that have a flower design.
I have a set of generic dinnerware. I need bowls for this generic set, as there were only a few included, and I've broken 2 of them already!
Yes. That is the color and size of my dinnerware. No sooner than I buy a new set, I break three or four pieces and am left with a Hodge Podge of plates and bowls.
Sadly, I have the "Heinz 57" variety - one from here and one from there, etc.
I have parts from two sets of Corelle dinnerware I received in the late 80s. I used to have two complete sets (different colors and patterns) of four place settings, but over the years this has dwindled down to enough plates, bowls, saucers, and cups to serve four as long as no one minds the mismatched patterns.
We have a variety of dishes most of them have flowers on them. No idea the brand new of them.
I use hand me down dinnerware mostly. My hubby is blind so dishes don't last long around here!
I have a white generic set.
I have the "Heinz 57" dinnerware. I like to call it antique.
My dinnerware are plain regular set.
