FERC PDF (Unofficial) 5/11/2016 5:09:03 PM 20160512-5033 FERC PDF (Unofficial) 5/11/2016 5:09:03 PM May 11, 2016 Ms. Kimberly D. Bose Secretary Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Office of the Secretary 888 First Street, NE Washington, D.C. 20426 Dear Secretary Bose, We, the undersigned organizations from New Jersey and Pennsylvania, are delivering to FERC today the petition signatures of over 8,000 people who are joining us to express our opposition to the PennEast Pipeline (CP15-558), an unneeded and damaging project. The petition signed by these individuals reads as follows: We call on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to reject the proposed PennEast Pipeline. This pipeline is environmentally destructive, unnecessary and unwanted. The pipeline would cut through preserved open spaces and sensitive waterways, result in an enormous surplus of gas that we don’t need, and is opposed by landowners and municipalities along its route. We urge you to reject this proposal. Representatives from our organizations have come to FERC in person today, joined by seven local mayors opposed to the pipeline, to stress the importance of hearing the voices of the many organizations, local officials and thousands of citizens opposed to the project. The vast majority of the more than 1,400 intervenors and landowners in the path of the pipeline oppose it. Many municipalities in Pennsylvania and every New Jersey municipality along the route has officially opposed the project. The PennEast Pipeline would cut through one of the most environmentally sensitive regions in the Delaware River watershed, damaging thousands of acres of preserved open space and some of the cleanest streams in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Parks and farmland that communities fought to have protected from other development would be torn up during the building process. If the PennEast Pipeline is approved, it will threaten the drinking water for over 1.5 million people. Building excessive and unneeded pipelines is costly for consumers. With a new pipeline, PennEast will reap all the benefits and the citizens of New Jersey and Pennsylvania will bear the financial burden. We request that FERC consider the evidence submitted to the docket that the existing infrastructure in our region is more than sufficient to meet market demand, and that a new pipeline is unnecessary and unwanted. Thank you for taking into account this demonstration of overwhelming public opposition. 20160512-5033 FERC PDF (Unofficial) 5/11/2016 5:09:03 PM Sincerely, Association of New Jersey Environmental Commissions Conservation Voters of PA Hopewell Township Citizens Against the PennEast Pipeline Hunterdon Land Trust Kingwood Township Citizens Against the Pipeline New Jersey Conservation Foundation New Jersey Highlands Coalition New Jersey League of Conservation Voters PennFuture Pinelands Preservation Alliance Raritan Headwaters Association Sierra Club Pennsylvania Chapter 20160512-5033 FERC PDF (Unofficial) 5/11/2016 5:09:03 PM Document Content(s) 5.2016 Petition to FERC Opposing PennEast.PDF.........................1-75 5.2016 letter from groups to FERC.PDF.................................76-77 20160512-5033 FERC PDF (Unofficial) 5/11/2016 5:09:03 PM Petition Opposing PennEast Pipeline - April 2016 Signatures from NJ and PA Residents as well as other states Petition Contact: Kristin Zilcosky, Director of Digital Engagement, Conservation Voters of PA and New Jersey LCV, [email protected], (202) 421-5581 Full Name Postal Code 59. brad rinaldi 04938 60.

  • Expatriate Entrepreneurship
    Expatriate Entrepreneurship Expatriate Entrepreneurship Expatriate Entrepreneurship Entrepreneurship among immigrants is an increasingly important The Role of Accelerators in Network Formation socio-economic phenomenon. To date, immigrant entrepreneurship and Resource Acquisition research has focused on immigrants that decide to engage in self- employment after having established themselves in the host country. Whereas this is arguably the case for the vast majority of immigrant entrepreneurs, it does not cover the field in its totality. This disser- tation is devoted to the study and analysis of those that emigrate Nedim Efendic in order to launch a new venture. I denote this novel group of en- trepreneurs as expatriate entrepreneurs, and I place them into the context of research on entrepreneurship among immigrants. This dissertation also examines how accelerators impact expatriate entre- preneurship. Using a multiple case study at the world’s three first government-funded acceleration programmes that target expatriate entrepreneurs, I show that by their ability to support network forma- tion and resource acquisition, accelerators are major facilitators of expatriate entrepreneurship. Nedim Efendic is a researcher at the Department of Mana- gement and Organization at the Stockholm Nedim Efendic School of Economics. • 201 6 ISBN 978-91-7731-021-1 Doctoral Dissertation in Business Administration Stockholm School of Economics Sweden, 2016 Expatriate Entrepreneurship Expatriate Entrepreneurship Expatriate Entrepreneurship Entrepreneurship among immigrants is an increasingly important The Role of Accelerators in Network Formation socio-economic phenomenon.

  • 4 Workshop on Emotions and Personality in Personalized
    4th Workshop on Emotions and Personality in Personalized Systems (EMPIRE) 2016 Boston, MA, USA, September 16th, 2016 Proceedings edited by Marko Tkalčič Berardina de Carolis Marco de Gemmis Andrej Košir in conjunction with 10th ACM Conference on Recommender Systems (RecSys 2016) ii Preface This volume contains the papers presented at the 4th Workshop on Emotions and Personality in Personalized Systems (EMPIRE), hold as part of the 10th ACM Conference on Recommender System (RecSys), in Boston, MA, USA. RecSys is the premier international forum for the presentation of new research results, systems and techniques in the broad field of recommender systems. Recommendation is a particular form of information filtering, that exploits past behaviors and user similarities to generate a list of information items that is personally tailored to an end-user’s preferences. The EMPIRE workshop focuses on the usage of psychologically-based constructs, such as emotions and personality, in delivering personalized content. The 9 (5 long, 4 short) technical papers included in the proceedings were selected through a rigorous reviewing process, where each paper was reviewed by three PC members. The EMPIRE chairs would like to thank the RecSys workshop chairs, Elizabeth Daly and Dietmar Jannach, for their guidance during the workshop organization. We also wish to thank all authors and all workshops participants for fruitful discussions, the members of the program committee and the external reviewers. All of them secured the workshop’s high quality standards.

Meeting Highlights and Background Briefing Report (Washington, D.C., April 24, 1992). Revised. INSTITUTION Family Impact Seminar (FIS), The AAMFT Research and Education Foundation, Washington, DC. SPONS AGENCY Annie E. Casey Foundation, Greenwich, CT.; Consortium of Family Organizations. PUB DATE Dec 92 NOTE 57p.; One of a series of monthly seminars conducted by the Family Impact Seminar. AVAILABLE FROMFamily Impact Seminar, American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, 1100 17th St., N.W., 10th Floor, Washington, DC 20036 ($10). PUB TYPE Collected Works Conference Proceedings (021) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Client Characteristics (Human Services); *Mental Health Programs; *Social Services; State Programs IDENTIFIERS *Case Management; *Integrated Services ABSTRACT A seminar was held on the topic of case management, how it is being used, and whether case management is the answer to providing effective family-centered integrated services. The first panelist was Marie Weil, associate dean and professor at the University of North Carolina's School of Social Work. She claimed people do not need case management unless they have multiple needs. The next three panelists then turned to case management as practiced in specific program areas, starting with welfare reform. Chris Thomas, director of the Institute for Family Self-Sufficiency, American Public Welfare Association, described case management services as used in the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) program. Gary Silverstein, research associate, from the Institute for Family Self-Sufficiency, American Public Welfare Association claimed the question is not whether welfare-to-work programs should be implemented but how they should be designed to be most effective.

  • Specifying and Animating Facial Signals for Discourse in Embodied Conversational Agents
    Specifying and Animating Facial Signals for Discourse in Embodied Conversational Agents Doug DeCarlo, Matthew Stone Dpt. of Computer Science and Ctr. for Cognitive Science, Rutgers University fdecarlo,[email protected] http://www.cs.rutgers.edu/˜village/ruth Corey Revilla Entertainment Technology Center, Carnegie Mellon University [email protected] Jennifer J. Venditti Dpt. of Computer Science, Columbia University [email protected] July 3, 2003 Abstract People highlight the intended interpretation of their utterances within a larger discourse by a diverse set of nonverbal signals. These signals represent a key challenge for animated con- versational agents because they are pervasive, variable, and need to be coordinated judiciously in an effective contribution to conversation. In this paper, we describe a freely-available cross- platform real-time facial animation system, RUTH, that animates such high-level signals in syn- chrony with speech and lip movements. RUTH adopts an open, layered architecture in which fine-grained features of the animation can be derived by rule from inferred linguistic structure, allowing us to use RUTH, in conjunction with annotation of observed discourse, to investigate the meaningful high-level elements of conversational facial movement for American English speakers. Keywords: Facial Animation, Embodied Conversational Agents Running head: Animating Facial Conversational Signals This research was supported in part by NSF research instrumentation grant 9818322 and by Rutgers ISATC. Dan DeCarlo drew the original RUTH concept. Radu Gruian and Niki Shah helped with programming; Nathan Folsom-Kovarik and Chris Dymek, with data. Thanks to Scott King for discussion. 1 TEXT far greater than any similar object ever discovered INTONATION L+H* !H*H- L+H* !H*L- L+H* L+!H*L-L% BROWS [ 1+2 ] HEAD [ TL ] D* U* Figure 1: Natural conversational facial displays (a, top), a high-level symbolic annotation (b, mid- dle), and a RUTH animation synthesized automatically from the annotation (c, bottom).
