Hi. I'm Tanchum Cohen. I'm here at YU this evening with Noah, Yehoshua and Barak

to spend a couple of minutes talking with you about the BA/Semicha Program

and the unique opportunities that it can offer you.

Fellows do you want to introduce yourselves?

My name is Yehoshua Szafranski and I'm from New Jersey

and I went to Yeshivas Kerem BeYavneh and I'm currently in Rav Twersky's shiur.

Hi. I'm Barak Bader, originally from Alabama, and I went to Derech Ohr Somayach,

and I'm in Rav Cohen's shiur.

Hi. My name's Noah Shapiro. I'm from the Upper West Side in Manhattan.

I went to Yeshivat Shaalvim for two years. I'm currently in Rav Rosensweig's shiur,

my third year of the BA/Semicha program and am currently an RA,

a resident advisor, on campus.

In many ways, the core of the BA/Semicha program is an opportunity

to do college over 4 years instead of 3 and enable more consistent learning

over the course of those four years.

Any of you guys wants to speak about the way in which that's been a game changer for you?

You're not leaving Yeshiva in Israel. You're able to carry Yeshiva, you're able to live in yeshiva,

this is yeshiva; where you have three sedarim a day, you're able to pound shas,

you're able to really learn halakhah with tremendous personalities

and you're able to develop your knowledge and really master that.

You're able to maximize your Torah learning,

you 're able to maximize your secular studies learning,

you're able to do it also within the same timeframe as anybody else who'd want to do semicha

and you're not paying for your fourth year of college.

You're only paying for three years of college.

So, you have the chance to be in yeshiva for four years,

do college more gradually, have an afternoon seder,

and pay nothing extra for the opportunity to be here for that fourth year.

We also have the benefit of having a whole section of the Beis Medrash to ourselves.

There's a whole group of people who are learning the same topic, we go back with each other,

speak in learning. We have Rav Cohen there – we can ask him questions.

Also - we've had the opportunity to go through a helek of mishnah berurah a year,

which has been really cool so over the course of the six years

you'll be able to be mesayem the entire mishnah berurah.

Do you fellows want to speak about some of the things

that stand out to you uniquely about the BA/Semicha program?

I think it's amazing that there's a specific psychology track

that is directly beneficial to the BA/Semicha program.

It is catered directly to our schedules, so we always get an afternoon seder,

and it literally gives us the ability to develop the skills for the fields that we need to go in.

I'm hoping to go into chinuch. It's a psychology degree, but it has a focus in the community,

a focus in dealing with people, so it's much more practical than clinical psychology.

Is this program really meant only for fellows who are planning on a career in klei kodesh?

It's so nice to see how we have such a diverse group

and people are really majoring in different things and are focusing on different things:

from math to computer science to philosophy, obviously the psychology major.

People majoring in all these different types of things.

This program within the yeshiva definitely positions you,

if you are interested in going into chinuch or rabbanus,

and it definitely allows you to maximize your Torah learning,

but by no means does it actually seal you in.

It doesn't say that you have to go into chinuch or rabbanus.

They can learn afternoon seder and even if they decide not to pursue their semicha studies further,

they still had the opportunity to maximize their Torah studies

while they were in their four years of college, which is something that is very unique to the program.

Noah do you want to speak about some of the hashkaha, machsahavah opportunities?

We have a Chabura with Rav Moshe Weinberger every couple of weeks

where we have an open question-answer session with him.

We have a da'as tefillah chabura once a week with Rav Cohen, which is unbelievable.

We have Rav Sobolofsky, as you mentioned,

who gives a chabura once a week on a sugya that we did in mishnah berurah that week.

Really unbelievably great figures in an intimate small environment

and have a more person interaction with them.

A fellow sits down with you, he's shana aleph, shanh bet, he's learning in Eretz Israel,

he's getting ready to come and continue learning in yeshiva in America

and he's thinking about his trajectory,

considering whether or not to pursue the BA/Semicha program.

What advice would you give him?

I think the six-years Semicha program is really an incredible opportunity

for anyone who's looking to maximize their Torah Studies in their undergraduate years,

but it's also geared towards people

who are specifically looking to do chinuch and rabbanus in the future.

If he wants, and I think he should, this program gives us a Shanah Gimmel –

this truly is Yeshiva here in America.

Noah, Yehoshua, Barak - I want to thank you so much for sitting down with me tonight

and taking the time to share some of your perspectives on the BA/Semicha program,

so you can use them in making your own decisions about next year and beyond.

And Then They Were Bears … - Duration: 3:19.

Dear students, First of all, congratulations on getting into

Brown!

I bet you are all very excited.

The next four years are bound to transform you in many ways, but what you may not expect

is that these changes can happen now, even before you reach campus.

Some students, like Karishma, manifest dietary changes, such as an increased desire for honey,

berries, and a general need to innovate - think of it as the open curriculum for the kitchen.

Though you may get strange looks from the people at your table, remember that you will

continue to transform — so accept and enjoy it!

You see, other students like Elizabeth, report new intellectual obsessions.

Your home may fill up with books about bears, but you should not be too concerned as your

interests are bound to change and develop once in contact with peers and professors

at Brown.

I, myself, came in thinking I was going to study psychoceramics until I decided to become

a behavioral scientist.

As move-in day draws nearer, students such as Lisa experience a strong need to ensure

that their dorm room will remind them of the forest.

The data tells us that 43.27 % of incoming students pursue these decorative choices.

However, our studies have not conclusively determined the reason for this.

Though consuming raw foods is a risk for most people, Brown students develop a special form

of resistance to bacteria found in raw fish.

Therefore, when you start craving salmon for dinner on a regular basis, don't worry about

purchasing sushi-grade, as your body will adapt to support this new diet.

You might notice that, like the books you choose, your internet searches will start

to primarily concern Brown University dorms, caves, and forests near Providence.

The only caves nearby, however, are in Lyman Hall and Granoff – I'm sure you will discover

them soon enough!

Your sleeping habits may change as well.

As move-in day approaches, you will want to surround yourself with bears of all shapes,

sizes, and textures.

It is vital, at this stage, to make sure that there are many plush bears available as some

students have been known to seek out live bears in their surroundings when imitation

bears have been absent.

Safety first!

But dearest student, please remember that whatever changes may come, you and your fellow

cubs need space to grow into bears.

Your bodies and minds will know what to do to prepare.

Enjoy your remaining months at home – and I hope you will choose to take my workshop

titled…

One colleague of SNSD's YoonA revealed what YoonA really looked like back in university. - Duration: 3:05.

She revealed what YoonA really looked like back in university.

On March 26th, one Instagram user with a username @jiaesshin shared the experience she had in university with Girls Generation YoonA.

It turned out that she has once enrolled in the same university with the idol.

She uploaded one photo of YoonAs autograph and a photo of the idol busy giving her signs to the crowd.

She wrote, Recently, I watched Hyoris Bed and Breakfast and I suddenly remembered the first year of my university.

When I was at Accounting Principal class, the class next to mine was so crowd.

Girls Generations YoonA came to the campus to attend Liberal Arts class. She continued, Although she was busy, she kept giving her autographs and it was touching.

Recently, she has worked hard on the show and her personality shines..

She then wrote in English, It was just really really cool experience of meeting Yoona from Girl's generation, (even tho this was long time ago) who was taking a class next to mine.

What an amazing school mate.

YoonA is nice not only in front of cameras but also in real life!.

Ghent University - LeanShips - Duration: 4:17.

Most marine propulsion runs on diesel or heavy fuel oil,

causing greenhouse gas, Nox and soot emissions.

As the sector will grow in the coming decades,

new legislation pushes the industry to innovate

and apply environmentally friendly technologies.

LeanShips which stands for Low Energy and Near to Zero emission Ships

is an European innovation project.

In which 42 partners

from various EU members states are involved.

The collective goal of all partners

is to put innovations into practice

by means of seven demonstrator cases.

We have dedicated teams

made up of equipment manufacturers,

shipyards, ship owners and research institutions,

all working hard together

to make the technologies more mature

and to demonstrate feasibility

to ensure market uptake.

One of the project teams aims

to demonstrate the potential of methanol

as an alternative marine fuel.

A viable solution is the introduction

of methanol as a marine fuel.

As one of the most widely shipped chemicals in the world,

methanol is readily available through existing

global terminal infrastructure.

In the years before submitting our project proposal

to the European Commission,

we did an extensive analysis

of potential alternative fuels.

And to assess these fuels,

we laid down three ground rules.

First was sustainability,

can the fuel be produced in a sustainable way?

So make use of an infinite energy supply

and a closed cycle of resources.

Secondly, scalability.

Can we scale up the fuels production?

Meaning, does it make use of abundantly available

and therefor cheap resources?

And third, is it sufficiently compact?

So does it offer a high enough energy density?

Judged by these three criteria,

methanol came out on top.

Methanol is a clean-burning fuel with lower emissions

and meets increasingly stringent environmental fuel regulations.

As a liquid fuel,

only minor modifications

are needed for current storage and bunkering infrastructure

to enable methanol marine fueling in major port facilities

both easily and cost effectively.

Methanol is primarily made from natural gas

But can also been made from a range of

renewable and low carbon sources

which really makes it an ideal pathway to a sustainable future.

At Ghent University

a Volvo Penta D7

has been converted to dual fuel operation.

Power output and emissions

will be measured from the dual fuel operation

and diesel-only operation.

In this way,

Leanships will be able to draw very concrete conclusions

on the advantages of this promising technology.

The Volvo Penta engine has been instrumented with sensors

and with a new methanol fuel supply system

that is suitable to the corrosive properties of methanol.

The operational principle of the dual fuel approach

is based on port fuel injection of methanol

and a pilot diesel direct injection

that actually ignites the methanol-air mixture.

In doing so,

a substantial part of the original diesel consumption

will be replaced by methanol.

DEME invests yearly

in its vessel portofolio.

Understanding the latest,

state of the art technologies

is key to make the correct investment decisions.

Abeking & Rasmussen

sees daily that market interest in sustainable vessels is increasing.

Together with LeanShips,

Abeking & Rasmussen believes that it makes a major contribution

towards sustainable shipping.

Portraits by Everett Raymond Kinstler | Vanderbilt University Fine Arts Gallery | Arts Break | NPT - Duration: 3:03.

- He has a career spanning over 70 years,

and has grown to become America's foremost portrait artist.

Join us as we take a look at America Creative,

portraits by Everett Raymond Kinstler,

on this week's Arts Break.

- [Joseph] America Creative is a collection of portraits

by Everett Raymond Kinstler,

that focuses primarily on creative subjects.

We really divide the exhibition up into artists,

performers, writers, you know people

like Katherine Hepburn, Tom Wolfe, Christopher Plummer,

that were associated with the creative

aspects of American life.

(upbeat music)

- [Everett] Looking back, there's no question I had a flare

to relate to painting people.

I think that it is not my role to judge,

it is my role to chronicle.

And, I try as best I can, as honestly as I can,

to, A, get a good painting, and what I feel is something

characteristic to the individual.

- It's not just appearances.

I mean, you can hire an illustrator to do an appearance,

but it's more than that, I think a successful

portrait talks about an interiority, talks about self.

- [Everett] The one of Ronald Reagan,

was where I had decided,

that I wanted to try and present him out-of-doors.

I had very strong feelings about that.

I didn't do it with a desire to be different,

in fact, I wasn't even thinking about it.

But as it turned out it's the only portrait

of any President ever done in the White House,

painted out-of-doors.

And my impression of the President, was that he was

a man who spent a great deal of time out-of-doors,

and, there's a second story, the White House,

called the Truman Balcony, named after Harry Truman,

who built a balcony on the second story of the White House,

and that's where I posed President Reagan.

I wanted to say something about the Truman Balcony,

because President Reagan said to me, Harry Truman did a

wonderful service to the President of the United States,

he gave us a balcony, where we could go out on the second

floor and look out at the Jefferson Memorial, and so forth.

I thought, that's my setting.

(upbeat music)

It's all you've got as an artist, is your own intuits,

your own points of view, you put 50 artists in a room,

and you pose for them,

you're gonna get 51 different pictures.

(upbeat music)

- [Suzy] America Creative,

Portraits by Everett Raymond Kinstler

is on display at Vanderbilt University Fine Arts Gallery,

Cheongju University Alumni Speak Up Against Criticism Towards Victims - Duration: 1:16.

Cheongju University Alumni Speak Up Against Criticism Towards Victims Of Jo Min Ki's Sexual Harassment

Alumni of Cheongju University, where the late actor Jo Min Ki was a professor at, expressed intent to take legal action against the people who are criticizing the victims who spoke up about his sexual harassment.

The alumni stated, The only reason the victims revealed their scars of sexual harassment to the world was in hopes to prevent it from happening again.

However, they are currently receiving a second round of attacks from social media, including a constant stream of comments on social networking site postings and private messages through Facebook accounts. Soompi. Display. News. English. 300x250. Mobile. English. 300x250. ATF.

The alumni talked about the danger of secondary attacks and explained, By passing the blame onto the victim, you will cover up the truth and obscure the essence of the incident.

Criticizing and attacking victims can fall under defamation and contempt, and can be considered a crime committed under the laws regarding promotion of information, communication network use, and protection of information..

The alumni revealed plans to take firm legal action against those who made the victims experience a second round of trauma from such actions.

They added, All members of society must be collectively responsible for creating a safe college environment from sexual violence. Cheongju National Universitys theater group against sexual violence will not give up its will to reveal the true story of sexual violence within the school in order to prevent students from becoming victims..

Previously, Jo Min Ki was accused of sexual harassment by multiple individuals. He later apologized and was being investigated prior to his death.
