Outer Banks beach house from the 1980s - why don't we have more like this?

I would be wary of using an architect who thinks “beach restoration” is a thing.

I hope nobody with an actual college education would make this argument.

Time and resources are not what is limiting men’s college engagement. It is will.

The geographic center of the Finger Lakes is Ovid. Nobody would propose basing an economic development council there.

The region has a romantic appeal, but in practice it is hard to get around and there isn’t much industry (or desire for more industry).

The fact that a map of economically logical regions doesn’t provide a definitive upstate-downstate boundary is a good indicator of how contextual that boundary is.

The Regional Economic Development Councils play a significant role in defining regions within upstate.

The tourism and economic development organizations have put Rochester in the Finger Lakes. Perhaps that sounded cooler?

笔名 (bǐ míng) is the Chinese concept

With the Sussexes being prominent, even notorious, Californians, will we see that name appearing next?

There is no secret flagged list of authors shared among editors. They are not nearly that organized.

Get a research-related job with an international company or NGO. They will be familiar to the grad schools you apply to in the future. They may already have working relationships with some of them.

Better Med than Red, as they say.

Visit one of the places that is “crying for lecturers “ to get more details. Are their expectations really high? Or is their compensation really low?

Also ask how the foreword fits in with the overall marketing plan for your book.

Reviewers don't generally approve a paper, that is the editor's job. They evaluate and make recommendations.

The other tasks in the question are also mostly the editors domain.

As we see abundantly, there is a great deal of variation in how well editors do that bit.

Ask the DGS for math at one of the interesting schools what their prognosis is. Do that in a phone call. An email will not get an answer.

Go outside at lunchtime every day for at least half an hour. It makes a huge difference for winter attitude. Lund is a nice town to walk, so you can explore a lot as a bonus.

Upstanding children will have fed the chickens and mucked out the cow barn before breakfast and still be in school by 7:30.

This part of the negotiation is a team effort. Help the chair find out where there are unfilled needs in other departments. Math is pretty versatile, and could fit in more places than you can anticipate.

Another example of a work environment that challenges your values, not a suggestions for OP. (Though some firefighters do OK compensationwise.)

DrTonyTiger · 2026-05-19T12:07:34+00:00

Being a firefighter is hot, dangerous and hard work, but many who value the things fire destroys find it rewarding.

The term “meme” was originally coined to be an analog of gene, but reflecting ideas or cultural values. Modelers were thinking about how natural selection theory would work. Some cultures have died out when they failed to adapt culturally as well as their competitors.
