Sexy but formal half-shaved hairdo
This look is a more relaxed version of the high and tight, the norm for men in the service. Instead of the sides and back being shaved or buzzed down to the scalp, a length of an eighth to a quarter of an inch is allowed, and even trails down in front of the ear to the jaw for a matching five o'clock shadow. Hair on top of the head is markedly longer, and styled up and towards the center of the skull, except near the hairline, where it is styled back. This short hair is easy to maintain and gives off a young and stylish vibe.
Half Shaved

ARTnews Proclaims Wellin Museum Show "A Must See"

"Refocusing the Lens: Pranlal K. Patel’s Photographs of Women at Work in Ahmedabad" hasn’t yet opened at the Ruth and Elmer Wellin Museum of Art. But that hasn’t kept ARTnews from noticing and celebrating the upcoming exhibition on its website and in print. The publication’s Jan. 23 article, “10 Must-See Museum Photo Shows of Spring 2014,” includes the Wellin exhibition along with shows at the Morgan Library & Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, Yale University Art Gallery, the High Museum of Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Nelson–Atkins Museum in Kansas City, Missouri.
Indian photographer Pranlal K. Patel (b. 1910-2014), an active photographer for 70 years, was approached in 1937 by a women’s social reform organization in India to photograph women engaged in a variety of economic activities that supported the growing city’s life. "Refocusing the Lens" provides unprecedented insight, via the images he captured, into the lives of working-class women as they performed a range of labor activities inside their homes as well as within the city’s neighborhoods and its major markets.
The ARTnews article describes the exhibition as providing “an intimate and respectful look at a complex and usually hidden economic and social world.” According to the publication’s website, ARTnews is “the oldest and most widely circulated art magazine in the world with a readership of 180,000 collectors, dealers, historians, artists, museum directors, curators, connoisseurs, and enthusiasts.”

Oosting excluded at Balmoral and Maywood
Following his arrest early Sunday morning, Jan. 23, on a domestic battery charge, Illinois-based driver Mike Oosting has been excluded from driving at Balmoral Park and Maywood Park by the Illlinois Racing Commission stewards until his court appearance scheduled for late February.
The 48-year-old Oosting was held overnight without bail on the misdemeanor charge until he appeared in bond court on Monday. With 467 wins last year, Oosting ranked 15th on the North American dash list. He has more than 4,400 career wins and $27.8 million in purse earnings. He won the dash title in 2010 at Balmoral Park for the sixth consecutive year.

Amanuensis Monday - The Long Lost Dennis Dugan
I've blogged before about Dennis Dugan and his first wife, Bessie Dugan nee Quirk. Bessie was my great-great aunt and she died shortly after giving birth to a daughter. I've often wondered what happened to that daughter, but so far (despite previous moments of inspiration on the subject) I have been unable to figure out if she died young, moved away to live with other family, or if she grew up and simply got married and led a normal life. In an attempt to try to find out what happened to here I finally tracked down some obituaries for her father, Dennis, and his 2nd wife. Sadly, there was no mention of her in the obituaries, so back to square one. Her not being mentioned does lead me to believe that her life was most likely cut short. Perhaps she even died prior to her father remarrying. Who knows. I'd like to avoid Pennsylvania doing a broad search for her death record, but it may come to that if I keep banging my head against this brick wall.
Dennis' daughter, Betty/Elizabeth (named after her mother), did have some half-siblings though. I do often wonder if they ever knew her. Was her name even mentioned after she passed? Ah well. On to her father's obituary:
The Globe Times - 17MAY1954, pg8
"Dennis J. Dugan
Dennis J. Dugan, 711 Pawnee St., a former employee [sic] of Bethlehem Steel, died unexpectedly at 8:30 a.m. today in his home.
A resident of Bethlehem for 45 years he was born in Audenried [sic], Pa. He was a member of St. Ursula's Church in Fountain Hill, of the Protection Hose Co. and of the South Side Fireman's Relief Assn.
His survivors include his wife, Rose (King) Dugan; two sons, James of Bethlehem and Francis, at home; two daughters, Sister Rose Dennis Dugan, SSJ, Church of the Ascension in Philadelphia, and Mary wife of James Phillips at home; and two sisters, Mrs. William O'Donnell and Margaret Dugan of Washington, D. C. Three grandchildren also survive."
Audenried,
Dugan,

HIMB to house state-of-the-art solar energy projectUniversity of Hawaiʻi at MānoaContact:Stephen Meder, (808) 956-8018Int. Assoc. VC for Phys Env & Long Range Planning, Sea GrantPosted: Jul 31, 2012Aerial view of Coconut IslandThe University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa has signed a power purchasing agreement (PPA) with SolarCity to provide renewable solar energy to the Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology on Coconut Island for the next 20 years. The university’s participation was enabled by financial support from the Center for a Sustainable Future.As part of the agreement, SolarCity has begun to install, and will own and maintain, a series of photovoltaic systems on the rooftops of marine institute buildings to provide solar-generated electricity to the Institute at a discount to utility rates.UH Mānoa will pay nothing up front and benefit from locking in a below-market electricity rate, significantly easing budgeting uncertainties from fluctuating electricity rates.The system will consist of solar panels and will have approximately 260 kilowatts (kW) of generation capacity, sufficient to provide an estimated 25 percent of the energy needs of the Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology. This percentage is expected to increase as the institute’s infrastructure undergoes efficiency retrofits and energy conservation measures are introduced. Savings to UH Mānoa over the life of the contract are expected to be as much as $2.3 million.Said UH Mānoa Chancellor Tom Apple, “This landmark achievement is a model for how we will proceed in the future. We have the unique opportunity to draw on the wealth of expertise on our campus, as well as our partners throughout the state, to set an example on what can be done to achieve significant energy savings. We’re making progress toward our goal of having 25 percent of campus-wide energy use supplied by renewable sources by 2020.”“This project is helping UH Mānoa to meet their long-term energy goals,” added Jon Yoshimura, director of government affairs for SolarCity. “Power purchasing agreements like this one make solar both logical and affordable.”Power purchase agreements for renewable energy are gaining popularity in Hawai‘i, where abundant sunshine, wind and waves make them a natural fit. The Center for a Sustainable Future, a non-profit funded by the Edwin W. Pauley Foundation and the Harold K.L. Castle Foundation, provided a grant to the University of Hawai‘i Foundation to work with Newcomb, Anderson, McCormick, a consulting firm with extensive experience with PPAs, to guide the university through the contract process, one of the first of its kind in Hawai‘i.Dr. Stephen Pauley, whose family’s philanthropy allowed the university to obtain Coconut Island, said, “This solar energy agreement is the right thing to do for Moku o Lo‘e (Coconut Island) and the university, not only in terms of energy cost savings but in principle. We need to support the work of our marine scientists with clean, renewable energy. Clean solar energy will not emit CO2 that warms the Earth and acidifies the oceans. The use of wind and solar energy on a large scale will give our children and grandchildren a quality of life that is slowly slipping away.”The UH Sea Grant College Program Center for Smart Building and Community Design worked in concert with the State of Hawai‘i Department of Transportation and the Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism to include the Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology site in a larger project for renewable energy adoption throughout the state. Instrumental in bringing this agreement to a close was Stephen Meder, UH Mānoa Interim Associate Vice Chancellor for Physical, Environmental and Long Range Planning, Director of the UH Sea Grant Center for Smart Building and Community Design, and a professor and national leader in green architecture. Said Meder, “It is the mission of this university, through its teaching, research, outreach and operations of its facilities, to develop and demonstrate solutions for the looming issues of the 21st century. This project is an important step toward moving Coconut Island specifically, and the Hawaiian Islands by extension, toward a sustainable future.”For more information, please contact Meder at [email protected] or (808) 956-8018.

Huntington's Disease (HD) is an inherited disorder resulting in slow and irreversible loss of both mental and physical capacity. There are 30,000 persons in the U.S. currently diagnosed with HD and each of their siblings and children has a 50% chance of developing it. HD is a "family disease", not just because it is inherited from a parent, but also because it profoundly affects the entire family unit emotionally, socially, and financially. HD, like Alzheimer and Parkinson's, takes a person away from their loved ones and the rest of the world long before they die.
HD typically begins in mid-life, between the ages of 30 and 45, though onset may occur as early as the age of 2. Children who develop the juvenile form of the disease rarely live to adulthood. It is characterized by a loss of neurons in certain regions of the brain and progressively affects a sufferer's cognition, personality and motor skills. In its later stages, sufferers almost certainly require continual nursing care. Secondary diseases, such as pneumonia are the actual cause of death, rather than the disease itself.
The good news is that researchers are working hard to find a cure and we should never lose hope that this disease can be conquered. Until there is a cure we must care for ourselves and each other and invest as much as we can in research and outreach to our communities. Back to Home Page

Richmond Traffic Operations Center expands
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) recently expanded the Richmond Traffic Operations Center (TOC) in Chester. The size of the center’s video wall was doubled, allowing staff to better monitor traffic in VDOT’s Fredericksburg District, a portion of I-95 in the Hampton Roads District and all 14 counties and 4 cities in the Richmond District, including Henrico. The changes also improved the center’s backup generator capability and lighting to increase reliability during inclement weather and other emergencies; and reconfigured the work area to accommodate staff needed to dispatch units of the Safety Service Patrols.
The TOC operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week dispatching and coordinating functions for transportation emergencies within the 26 counties in central Virginia. Another significant responsibility is updating of accident, work zone, and road weather information, which flows to the public through VDOT’s 511 system. Staff at the Richmond TOC operate and maintain 54 traffic cameras, 15 permanent overhead variable message signs, 13 trailer-mounted variable message signs, six highway advisory radio sites and 10 pavement sensors.

Rabbi Jean Eglinton and the Rev. Rick Wilson: House Bill 2856 warrants religious support
West Virginians should no longer refuse to rent an apartment to a person because he is gay. Nor should we refuse to hire someone because she is a lesbian. House Bill 2856, also known as the Employment and Housing Nondiscrimination Act (EHNDA), is currently being reviewed by the West Virginia House of Delegates. If passed, the bill will simply include sexual orientation in the West Virginia Human Rights Act, which currently prohibits discrimination in housing, employment and public accommodations on the basis of race, sex, religion and disability. As a Jewish rabbi and a Christian minister, we stand together in support of this legislation. HB 2856 includes a broad religious exemption that allows religious institutions to follow their conscience with respect to employment, housing and public accommodations. Should HB 2856 pass this session, different religious denominations will still be free to interpret their scriptures the way they see fit. This legislation will in no way impose its view upon any particular house of worship. Discrimination on the basis of religion is prohibited by West Virginia law, and this simple update would not affect that. There was a time when many folks felt uncomfortable around people who had a different skin color or a different religion. Discrimination against Jews in regard to housing and employment is largely a thing of the past in the United States, thanks to the principles of justice and equality which are foundational to this nation. For liberal Jews it is unjust to discriminate against a person because of his or her sexual orientation. It is simply a matter of civil rights. They derive the basic value of respect from Genesis 1:27: "And God created humans in God's own image, in the image of God, God created them; male and female God created them." Seeing God's image in each other obliges us to act justly toward one another. Christians claim Jesus Christ as both model and guide for how they are to demonstrate God's love to society. It is incumbent upon followers of Jesus to stand with those denied the basic rights of human dignity and respect, even if those followers disagree with, or don't understand another's orientation or identity. On his first day of ministry, Jesus declared that his mission was to stand in solidarity with persons pushed to the edges of society by discrimination and bias. In referring to the prophet Isaiah he said, "The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor." (Luke 4:16-19) As Christians experience the New Life of Easter this year, they will celebrate the sacrificial love of God. The resurrecting God of love is also God of justice and liberation. As Passover approaches, Jews remember how difficult things have been for them as a cultural minority over the past two millennia. Passover is the Festival of Freedom. This is a season to rededicate ourselves to work for basic human rights for all. Everyone should have adequate housing and employment. Please write or call your representative in the West Virginia House of Delegates to urge him or her to vote for House Bill 2856. In this Passover and Easter season, may we all enjoy a roof over our heads and gainful employment. The writers are Rabbi Jean E. Eglinton of B'nai Sholom and the Rev. Dr. Rick Wilson of Highlawn Presbyterian Church. The views expressed here are their personal opinions and do not represent the views of their respective congregations. (u'addcomment',)

Beard, Indians looking to make impact
By George Bremer The Herald Bulletin
---- — ANDERSON — Jerian Beard might be the best-kept secret in Indiana.The Anderson senior begins his third year as the starting running back coming off a season in which he rushed for 1,171 yards on 155 carries and scored 17 touchdowns. He also caught 29 passes for 347 yards and five scores.Indiana, Ball State and the University of Indianapolis have shown some level of interest in his services for next fall. Still, somehow, his name remains relatively unknown outside of the city limits.“In my opinion, he’s probably one of the top five backs in the state,” Indians head coach Randy Albano said.Beard was diagnosed with diabetes in January shortly after helping the Anderson boys basketball team win the Madison County championship. A role player in that sport, he believed his real test with the disease would come on the football field.So far, so good.“He’s doing real well,” Albano said. “He had a good offseason. He’s a lot stronger than last year, a lot faster. I think he can match what he did last year and a little better. He’s going to have a good year.”Despite heavy losses from a team that finished 4-6 in 2012, the prognosis for the Tribe as a whole is similarly positive.Anderson opens the season Friday at Fort Wayne Wayne, an athletic team that paid its dues with young players in the past two seasons and could be ready for a breakout campaign. And IHSAA realignment that created a new Class 6A and left the Indians in 5A did little to help the team’s postseason chances.Anderson was assigned to a sectional that pairs it with four of the state’s top 20 teams in The Associated Press preseason poll — No. 1 Indianapolis Cathedral, No. 4 Zionsville, No. 12 Decatur Central and No. 17 Richmond.But the Tribe believes it can contend in the North Central Conference, where the Red Devils and No. 13 Kokomo are the preseason favorites. Anderson beat the Wildkats 41-33 in the final week of the regular season last year and played Richmond tough in a 47-34 loss in Week 3.The Indians play both conference rivals at Collier Field this year.“They feel like they’re gonna win every game,” Albano said of his players. “We were disappointed last year being 4-6.”Defense often let Anderson down in 2012. The Tribe surrendered 40 or more points five times and allowed an average of 34.5 points per game. Much of that was the result of poor coverage in the passing game, but that’s an area in whi

The building directly on the corner of Route 38 and River lane is called The Pump House. In it weddings, meetings, and events are held. It’s serene location and historic preservation are what makes this building so special.
A short history on the building: In the years prior to 1896, Geneva experienced a series of fires which proved so damaging that a three inch surface main-pipe was laid on the principal street and connected with a rotary pump to provide water for fire protection. This was better than nothing, but with the loss of the Courthouse in March of 1890 due to an inadequate water supply, it became apparent that a more modern system must be built.
At the Geneva City Council Meeting on April 19, 1896 an ordinance for construction of the system of water works was enacted. The cost of work was not to exceed $350,000, and was to be paid for in part by general taxation and in part by special assessment upon the properties benefited.
In July the work on the station house and reservoir was well along. The slate roof was placed on the double brick building and a roof was being put upon the 140,000 gallon capacity reservoir. The brick smoke-stack was to be 70 feet in height and the Dean Pump was one of the largest made of its time, having a stroke capacity of 36 gallons. The first water was pumped in September of 1896 and the electric generator was turned on in December of the same year.
In 2001, this building was restored to provide a very unique and upscale event space for all types of gatherings.

a very good read. this book not only covers the life of the man but also covers the brutality of apartheid in detail. it also points out so many people who fought for freedom in south africa that are not given credit by the current goverment.

Cities into Battlefields: Metropolitan Scenarios, Experiences and Commemorations of Total War [1]
Editor: Stefan GoebelDerek KeeneISBN: 9780754660385Date of Publication: 2011Price: £65.00Pages: 248pp.Publisher: AshgatePublisher url: Place of Publication: Farnham Reviewer: Nick HayesWriting some thirty years ago, Brian Bond noted that ‘strictly speaking, total war is just as much a myth as total victory or total peace’.(1) Undoubtedly, too, some wars – even world wars – were more total than others. If in the First World War civilians suffered indirectly from shortages, separations, blockade, etc., it was still the solders that did most of the dying. Yet in World War Two those on the urban ‘home fronts’ were equally at risk – seen as legitimate targets because they were essential producers for the war effort. None of this, of course, is wholly new. Sherman, for example, used armed force against civilians (as a modern form of chevauchée), although mostly he targeted property, not people.(2) Nonetheless, the degree of state- led mobilization, and the consequent ability to out-produce opponents, or degrade their socio-industrial capacity/will, has come to govern our understanding of the totality of modern warfare.(3) Total war can thus be constructed as the willingness of individuals to subordinate themselves to the demands of the state.(4)
Stefan Goebel’s and Derek Keene’s ambitious collection of essays takes up the theme that ‘mass-industrialized warfare blurred distinctions between home and front, soldiers and civilians’ (p. 4), and seeks to tease out the social costs of this as it was played out in a predominantly urban environment. This is to be welcomed, for, quite clearly, if total war is episodic (in terms of mobilization and military intensity), its relative intensities, too, have a strong urban/spatial component. Nonetheless, one of the odd things about the collection is that, despite a very long introduction of some 46 pages, there is actually very little formalized discussion of total war per se, other than to acknowledge in passing its complex and illusive qualities. For a book with total war in the title this seems strange. The key questions set are: ‘How was urban space affected by the totalizing tendency in warfare in the first half of the twentieth century? And how did cityscapes shape the way people thought about war, experience violence and remember its legacy?’ (p. 4). There are studies on the metropolises of London, Paris, Belgrade, Vienna, Budapest, Warsaw, Stalingrad (and in passing Berlin and Baghdad), Hiroshima and Tokyo; and the smaller cities of Coventry and Edirne (the Ottoman second capital). With one exception, the essays focus on the First and Second World Wars.
The exception is again Edirne, which surrendered after five months of siege by the Bulgarians during the First Balkans War. The social impact of siege – sometimes at higher costs – stretches back into time (witness Jerusalem, Tenochtitlan) (also pp. 5-6). Indeed, when I talk to my ‘earlier’ colleagues, I hear stories of the poor being brutally evicted from besieged cities into a no-man’s land between two hostile armies, simply to save food. Whether this was before or after each side catapulted plagued bodies in or out is beyond my level of expertise. We might ponder, too, on whether the siege of Edirne (population 90,000) constituted a total war even in microcosm; it seems contextually counter-intuitive (small city, minor war). Yet, in Eyal Ginio’s account, ‘totality’ lies not with the event but the aftermath. With the city recast as a bulwark against yet one more Christian Crusade aimed at obliterating a Muslim presence in Europe, non-Muslim inhabitants became the ‘other’ (partly through atrocities literature and assertions of treachery). Liberated Edirne then became a site of mass pilgrimage, a ‘focal point of collective ceremonies of purification, commemoration, rejuvenation and celebration of Muslim unity’ (p. 94) – a ‘symbol of a possible turn of fortune for the Ottoman nation and its attachment to Islam’ (p. 99). Yet does this re-imagining constitute totality? Measure this happening against Hannah Arendt’s acute observation that defeat in a ‘truly’ total war meant the wholesale collapse of the state, not just a reconstituted identity.(5)
Jovana Knežević, writing about the Austro-Hungarian occupation of Belgrade 1915–18, similarly chooses to focus not on the brutality of siege, or that many, many citizens fled, but instead on the subsequent battle for identity and belonging between occupiers and the diminished number of inhabitants, played out through the voids of rumour and official propaganda. Cocooned within the city, as one contemporary recalled: ‘We do not know the truth, this is all just inaccurate news and conjecture!’ (p. 117). Many Serbs thought ‘the city was no longer their own. Perhaps the streets and cafes were crowded, but they were not crowded with locals’ (p. 110). ‘Most people saw themselves as being “enslaved”, and frequently referred to themselves as “slaves” (robovi) in their personal writings and exchanges’ (p. 104). In short, ‘Belgraders resented having to share their homes and city with these uninvited and unwelcome guests’ (p. 110). The relative totality of this also remains unclear: at least if construed against the consequences of earlier siege conflicts, where failure to surrender promptly brought actual enslavement or worse. Indeed, one of the paradoxes when dealing with the mass destructive power of 20th-century total war is that frequently, when compared with the past, the present is at least no worse. For example, the Thirty Years War devastated Germany, reducing its urban population by 33 per cent and its rural population by 45 per cent. In the 20th century captured solders had an expectation of humane treatment, not death or enslavement. Thus, certain ‘rules of the game’ had changed for the better, although the high level of atrocities committed on the Eastern Front after 1941 makes you temper such a view.
Yet contemporaries certainly thought that modern warfare was quantitatively and qualitatively different (but maybe that is true of all contemporaries?). Winston Churchill argued that ‘The Great War … differs from all ancient wars in the immense power of the combatants and their fearful agencies of destruction, and from all modern wars in the utter ruthlessness with which it was fought’ by supposed ‘civilised, scientific, Christian States’ (my italics).(6) We might well think that Churchill had a point when reading Antony Beevor’s account of Stalingrad (here and elsewhere). This was a ‘war fought for values that were not material and therefore finite, but spiritual and therefore infinite’.(7) Both Stalin and Hitler ‘utterly dehumanized their enemies through propaganda and their complete control of the media’. They were also, he adds, totally ‘prepared to waste the lives of the own men’ (p. 153). Beevor particularly has in mind the punishment battalions and blocking units used by both sides ‘to ensure … total compliance’ by their solders. This was a ‘new form of warfare, concentrated in the ruins of civilian lives’ (p. 154). ‘Street-fighting’, John Frances argues, was ‘just as costly in the Middle Ages as at Stalingrad’.(8) Yet Stalingrad took the form of extended urban warfare amid the ‘detritus of war’, reminiscent of the Western Front of 1914–18, but here occurring between the wreckage of people’s homes. Other comparatives aside, the scale, intensity, location and barbarity of Stalingrad mark it out as being of a different order to the battles listed elsewhere in this collection. John Meuller has observed that, while the 20th century did not invent horrific wars, for the first time people were thoroughly repulsed by these horrors, ‘being aware that viable alternatives existed’.(9) In this light, Stalingrad, Berlin and Hiroshima take on a new meaning and poignancy in our imaginations.
Nowhere is this better illustrated than in the inter-war flirtations with collective security and pacifism: that war ought to be abolished because the consequences were too obscene. The naval bombardment of Scarborough, Whitby and Hartlepool in 1914 claimed a significant number of civilian lives. Yet it was the less intense aerial bombing raids that were remembered for the future: to be, as Grayzel notes, ‘mythologized in various wartime cultural media’ (p. 52). This ‘new means of waging war’ – the ‘terror to come’ was deemed apocalyptic: ‘the notion that civilization itself was at stake gained rhetorical power with the attacks’ on women and children. Urban life itself was at risk (p. 62). Again, targeting cities was not new; it was only the technology that was different (and each successive generation frets over the impact of new destructive technologies). Yet what had changed was the scale of hyperbole that accompanied even official predictions. As Richard Titmuss later noted, British estimated casualty rates were ridiculously wide of the mark; coping with a predicted initial casualty rate of some 200,000 per week was simply impossible for the medical planners to contemplate.(10) The realities, of course, were very different, so that across the war in total only some 60,000 British civilians were killed (with 86,000 seriously injured and 149,000 slightly injured). Peter Stansky, in looking at the first day of the Blitz – although other stories become intermingled – nevertheless asserts (erroneously) that: ‘Up until the middle of 1944 there were more civilian deaths than military ones’ (p. 64).(11) These were ‘ordinary victims’, ‘those who had not deliberately chosen to put themselves at risk’ (p. 63). Everyone, apparently, knew someone who had been killed or badly wounded, knew of places and buildings hit or destroyed, and felt that a bomb might fall nearby (p. 64). Perhaps, although even within the metropolitan centres spatially levels of destruction and suffering varied significantly. The vital point, he believes, however, is that terror and terror bombing (if that’s what the Blitz was) (12), is not an ‘absolute’ but lives in the imagination as being a possibility (p. 64). But the totality of terror, too, has to be based on probability, measured and tempered by lived experience: as an abstract or semi-abstract it has less impact, for in practice there was, despite pre-war medical predictions, no mass outbreak of hysterical neurosis. Indeed, the incidence of such illnesses actually fell, as did the number of suicides.
The reality for Coventry, as Stefan Goebel recalls, was a legacy not just of destruction but also of remembrance. It is a story of how a ‘war-torn provincial city matured into a, if not the, “commemorative cosmopolis” of post-war Europe’ (p. 163), and of how a new word, ‘Coventration’ (Coventrieren) gave rise to an unspeakable deed and idea (p. 165). He argues, not unreasonably, that the semantics of ‘Coventration’ had a more powerful impact than the bombs themselves (for the rubble was cleared, the 568 dead buried and the city rebuilt (p. 164)). ‘Collective memory’, Goebel observes, is a ‘collected memory’; it requires ‘organization, guidance and direction (p. 169). It also works best at a local level within clearly defined communities. By 1962, in an activity much favoured by local councillors, the city had twinned with 23 other cities to spread its message, although links to Hiroshima were brusquely rejected, perhaps because Coventry feared being overshadowed in its international ambitions in commemorative politics (p. 171). Through the dynamics of international reconciliation – at which the new cathedral stood centre stage – truth itself became the subject of exaggeration. This utilised a new narrative, that if all were guilty – as with the bombing of Dresden – then all too were victims, although the church unwisely prosecuted this debate using the figures supplied by David Irvine (pp. 180–2).
The reality for Paris was completely different. As Patrice Higonet reminds us in his refreshingly sardonic essay on ‘The French capital and total war’, the city suffered very little physical damage. ‘“Paris in the age of total war” – fortunately, that notion represents difficulties’ (p. 73). There were ‘dark sides’ – food shortages, fuel shortages – but, ‘in many respects, life went on in occupied Paris much as it always had’ before 1939 (pp.76–7). For Paris, there were two clear exceptions, the Communists and Jews, where the war brought misery and death. Modern wars, he concludes, are about ‘moulding men’s minds’ – in this sense the two world wars changed what ‘Parisians thought about themselves and the place of their city in the world’ (p.79). Very few joined the Resistance, and very few also joined the fascist parties. Most, instead, tried to forget their immediate surroundings and sought escapist entertainment (pp. 80–1). As Maureen Healy notes, too, in her essay, the Nazi regime killed far more Viennese citizens – on racial and political grounds – than did enemy bombers (p. 120). Interestingly, its citizenry became inward looking, relatively unconcerned about foreign policy and military operations; because of ‘low spirits any and all interest in the big events … disappeared’ (p. 121). Thus at the city level the definition of ‘enemy’ changed. In the First World War, as food shortages became endemic, the tensions were ethnic: between the German-speaking majority and ‘other’ city dwellers – Jews, Czechs and Hungarians – labelled as black-marketeers and hoarders. In the Second War, the ‘other’ was quickly redefined as non-native Germans, so that even German-speaking Viennese were hostile to an external German presence and the greater Germany project. It was primarily a passive resistance, splattered with occasional vibrant scenes of defiance, perhaps diluted by the Nazi exploitation of domestic anti-Semitic sentiment.
In one of the more thought-provoking essays, Tim Cole examines the socio-urban processes of ghettoization in Warsaw (from 1940) and Budapest (1944). In Warsaw the practices of mental mapping were already underway, in a manner very similar to Victorian constructs of slumland: certain streets were deemed unsafe (physically for Jews); other Jewish areas were deemed contagious – filled with ‘imaginary’ diseases – ‘infected’ and, therefore, physically quarantined. Subsequent ghettoization impacted significantly on both Jew and non-Jew: no ‘tradesman or storekeeper wants to move to a strange section’ (p. 141). Some 250,000 people (138,000 being Jewish) relocated over a two week period, although boundaries remained fluid. In Budapest, the process was less structured. Following the Nazi occupation of 1944, the concern was that creating a single Jewish quarter would open up the rest of the city to allied bombing. Yet plans to establish mini-ghettos around strategic sites were abandoned in favour of designating each individual house or block to be Jewish or non-Jewish according to majority occupation. This reduced significantly the internal disruption, but also brought forward a flurry of petitions from Jews and gentiles alike who did not want to move: although some argued, too, that their apartment buildings were ‘unhealthy and entirely unsuitable for “non-Jews”’ (p. 147). Thus, Cole concludes, in both cities the final locations were decided not by ‘imaginary geographies’ but by pragmatic concerns for getting the job done quickly (p. 149).
Finally, there are two essays on Japanese public history; on how Hiroshima and Tokyo have chosen to represent their pasts. If we focus, in terms of totality, on the means employed rather than the objectives obtained then events like Hiroshima (and Nagasaki) stand clear: being absolutely total. The obvious question is how this past should be remembered; accepting that pasts cannot be re-created, only retold in certain selected ways. The object of Lisa Yoneyama’s essay is to question the ‘limits of compassion and historical knowledge when considering such matters as war, atrocities and other historical injuries’ (pp.186–7). Hiroshima commemorates the first ‘successful’ use of nuclear weapons. It was a site, too, that demonstrated the ‘interchangeability between two concepts, the “atomic weapon” and “world peace”’. This she reads as an oxymoron, illustrative of US ‘techno-military supremacy’ (pp. 187–8). She notes, too, the controversy over how the history of bombing – its rationale – should be presented, and the ambiguities of meaning within such national representations. Given the nature of the event a diversity of view is hardly surprising.
The shifting ambiguities of representation are also central to Julie Higashi’s focused essay ‘The spirit of war remains intact’, which examines public memorialization in Tokyo: of what is kept, of what is restored, what is promoted and how this has changed. Certain representations were impervious: the impressive Masujiro Omura column – a figurative representation of the father of the modern Japanese army – symbolized ‘unshakable loyalty to the state’ (p. 206). It survived both wartime collections for metals and the post-war US cull of statues and monuments that roused feeling of militarism and nationalism. The Yushukan museum, by contrast, was required to sever its militaristic links. Now, however, it has reverted to being a military museum, offering positive representations of Japan’s past that centres on worship of the emperor and the glorification of the war dead: promoted as ‘the correct modern history of Japan’ (p. 212). The newly built Showakan museum, a response to a strong demand from the War Bereaved Families Association, similarly focuses on Japanese war and post-wartime suffering. Higashi concludes that as a consequence of such devices remaining intact and gaining power, Tokyo has become ‘even more haunted by the past than ever’ (p. 218).
Several of the essays attempt cross city comparisons, some contemporaneously, some offering contrasts with more recent events like 9/11. By and large, these add little to the overall theme of the collection, and, at times, detract from the core themes themselves. A common problem with most collections is their inevitable disparate character, because essays are generally not written to order but reflect, quite naturally, the on-going or past research interests of the contributors. Urban space helps give this collection a vectored form, although this unity, when married to differing aspects of totalising experience, memory or activity brings with it its own challenges. Nonetheless, as might be expected, what the collection does show is that there was no one common impact, no one common outcome, no one common experience or response, and indeed that people then, as now, were viewing totality – however loosely defined – in differing ways. The breadth overall of the collection is more than satisfactory, even accepting the problems of definition and focus that this brings, but the research base and adding-to-knowledge element within it is mixed. Some essays – for example by Cole, Healy, Knežević and Gino – have strong empirical bases; others less so. What we have, then, essentially, is an interesting and diverse collection of essays on the impact of modern warfare on individual cites, where notions of any totality reside as much in the imagination as in the realities and practices of everyday urban life. Indeed, even here there must be questions about contemporary provenance and understanding because the experiences for many people were very, very different.

Number of casualties up to Sept. 1944 were as follows. British Armed Forces: Killed - 176,081/ Missing – 38,275. Merchant Seamen: Killed – 29,629. Civilians (inc. Civil Defence): Killed – 57,298. These figures are from Statistics Relating to the War Effort of the United Kingdom (Cmd. 6564) (London, 1944), p. 9. Civilian deaths include 5,476 killed from June to Sept. 1944 by flying bomb attacks. British military deaths over the same period are estimated at 20,000-22,000. Back to (11)

Jonathan Meredith, born in Bucks County, Pa.
about 1772, enlisted in the Marine Corps 6 June 1803 and was promoted to
sergeant 1 August of the same year.
During an engagement in the harbor of Tripoli 3
August 1805, Sergeant Meredith saved the life of Lt. John Trippe of Vixen,
who with a party of nine men had boarded a Tripolitan ship. Heavily
outnumbered, the boarding party fought a fierce hand‑to‑hand
combat, in which Trippe was severely wounded; Meredith protected him from what
would have been the final blow. Four days later Meredith was killed in the
explosion of Gunboat No. 3 during a similar attack against the
Tripolitans.

The third Meredith (DD‑726) was
laid down 26 July 1943 by Bath Iron Works Corp., Bath, Maine; launched 21
December 1943; sponsored by Mrs. William Kepper; and commissioned 14 March
1944, Comdr. George Kauspfer in command.
After shakedown off Bermuda, Meredith departed
Boston 8 May 1944 as an escort in a convoy, arriving Plymouth, England, on the
27th. Between 5 and 6 June, she served as escort to transports assembling for
the Normandy invasion. On 6 June, Meredith gave gunfire support to the
landing forces on Utah Beach; and early in the morning of the following day,
while patrolling the offshore waters as a screening vessel, she struck an enemy
mine. Severely damaged, with a loss of seven killed and over 50 wounded and
missing, Meredith was towed to an anchorage in the Bay of the Seine to
be salvaged. However, on the morning of 9 June, her seams were further opened
by an enemy bombing raid and shortly after she broke in two without warning and
sank.
On 5 August 1960, the sunken hulk was sold to
St. Fran�aise de Recherches of France. The hulk of the gallant Meredith was
raised and scrapped in September 1960
Meredith received one battle star for World War II

› 2007 TELUS Cup - National Midget Championship
Chris Mason remembers the feeling of standing in goal, on national television, ready to play for a
national championship.
The only thing missing, he says?
Nerves.
“I really wasn’t that nervous,” says Mason, now a goaltender for the NHL’s Nashville Predators. “There
were so many nerves along the way, just getting there, that it really was just another hockey game.”
Except this hockey game was the national championship game at the 1994 Air Canada Cup National Midget
Championship in Brandon, MB, broadcast coast-to-coast on TSN, and Mason was the star netminder for the Red
Deer Chiefs.
The Chiefs had grabbed the final playoff spot in the Alberta Midget Hockey League and, with the help of
future NHLers Mason and Shane Willis, had climbed to within one win of Canadian Midget hockey’s ultimate
“Just getting there was one of the best experiences of my life,” Mason says. “We had had such a tough time
getting there, getting the last spot and fighting through the playoffs. We felt like nothing could stop
The only thing standing between them and a championship? The Regina Pat Canadians, one of the most
successful Midget franchises in the country.
But the Chiefs stayed with the Pat Canadians, even as the game went into overtime.
Willis would have the best chance for the Albertans, ringing a shot off the goalpost, before Regina would
get the winner past Mason, denying Red Deer their best shot at a national title.
“We thought we played the perfect final, and to lose in overtime…we were crushed,” Mason says. “It’s a
huge letdown to get that close, and then go home empty-handed.”
After wrapping up his Midget career in the national final, Mason moved on to the WHL’s Prince George
Cougars, where he starred for three years, becoming a 5th round draft pick (122nd overall) of the New Jersey
Devils in 1995.
Signed by the Anaheim Mighty Ducks prior to the 1997-98 season, Mason lasted just more than a year in the
Mighty Ducks’ system before being traded to Nashville on the eve of the 1998-99 season.
He made his NHL debut for the Predators on against Anaheim, stopping all eight shots he
faced in relief of starter Mike Dunham.
But it would take six more years for Mason to become a full-time NHLer, as he spent four seasons with the
Milwaukee Admirals, one with the San Antonio Rampage and the 2004-05 season with Valerengen IF, leading them
to a Norwegian League championship.
“It was tough to see so many guys I played against move up, and think ‘I know I’m better than them’,”
Mason says of his minor league career. “A lot of other guys get bitter and get frustrated, but I get to play
hockey for a living, so how can I complain?”
After spending 2003--06 seasons as back-up to number one guy Tomas Vokoun in Nashville, the
31-year-old got his chance in 2006-07 when Vokoun went down with a thumb injury in late November.
Mason made 21 consecutive starts between November 26th and January 6th, and won more games over the course
of the season (24) than he had in the rest of his NHL career (16).
“It’s a lot easier when you’re the guy,” Mason says of being a starter, as opposed to a back-up. “You’ve
got the comfort level of knowing you’re going to play every night, and you can really get into a groove.”
He certainly found his groove in 2006-07, setting a franchise record for shutouts in a season (five, tied
with Vokoun), finishing second in the NHL in save percentage (.925), and even picking up his first NHL assist
on November 29th against Philadelphia.
Of course, Mason is one of the rare goaltenders who picked up first NHL assist after his first NHL
On , Phoenix forward Geoff Sanderson shot the puck into his own net, and since Mason was the
last Nashville player to touch the puck, he was credited with the goal, becoming just the ninth NHL
goaltender to score during a game.
“It was a cheesy goal,” a sheepish Mason said after the game. “Someone else should have received it.”

China revels in success of its longest space mission
Chinese astronauts, from left, Zhang Xiaoguang, Nie Haisheng and Wang Yaping celebrate after getting out of the re-entry capsule of China's Shenzhou 10 spacecraft following its successful landing in Siziwang Banner, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region on June 26, 2013. / AP by Calum MacLeod, USA TODAYby Calum MacLeod, USA TODAY Filed Under
BEIJING �?? After China's longest ever manned space mission, three astronauts safely returned to Earth Wednesday as China celebrated another successful step forward in the slow but steady space program that President Xi Jinping has linked to his "dream" of national revival.
The 15-day mission, whose highlights included manual docking with an orbiting space station and a science lecture to 60 million students, concluded when the descent module of the Shenzhou 10 spacecraft parachuted down to a sparsely populated area of Inner Mongolia.
The Shenzhou 10, whose name means "Sacred Vessel," linked up with the Tiangong 1 ("Heavenly Palace") space station in a "perfect" mission, Wang Zhaoyao, director of China's manned space program, told a news conference in Beijing. Tiangong 1 has now completed its mission as an experimental prototype and will not be revisited. By 2020, Beijing plans to launch a permanently manned space station.
"As we celebrate our success, we also realize the fact that there is still a very large gap between China and the leading space countries in terms of manned space technology and capability," said Wang. China's space efforts remain a source of considerable pride in China �?? and a few grumbles at the huge expense in what remains a developing nation.
The Chinese and U.S. space programs appear like "a classic tortoise and hare," said Joan Johnson-Freese, a professor of national security affairs, and an expert on the Chinese space program, at the U.S. Naval War College. "China has an incremental plan, step by step, they are in no hurry, but it's also very ambitious," she said.
China flies fewer missions than the U.S. Apollo program, "but takes bigger steps," said Johnson-Freese. "They read the Apollo playbook, and know all the things the U.S. got from a human space program," she said, including economic benefits, dual-use technology with military capability, and a boost for science programs and public interest.
Most importantly, "what China has is political will, because they are an authoritarian country," and so can push forward their program without the financial pressures faced by Western governments, said Johnson-Freese. China fits the term "techno-nationalism, to use technology to demonstrate your prowess. It's giving them a lot of street cred in Asia and the rest of the world."
On Monday, President Xi, head of China's ruling Communist Party, told the astronauts via a video call that space exploration is "part of the dream to make China stronger." Xi also attended the ceremony to see them off on June 11 at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China.
To achieve the next key stage of China's space program, the country is building Long March 5 launch rockets capable of carrying up to 20 tons of cargo at near-Earth orbit to construct and supply the permanent space station, said Yuan Jie, vice president of China Aerospace Science and Technology, at the Beijing news conference. These are at the prototype stage in the new launch center on southern Hainan Island, which has been under construction since 2009.
The 50-minute, in-space lecture by female astronaut Wang Yaping proved highly popular. Wang Zheng, 10, a schoolboy from Luohe city in central China's Henan province, saw news of the lecture on television news. "I want to be an astronaut one day. I want to contribute to China's development, and it would be fun to go so fast in a rocket," he said Wednesday when touring the Beijing Planetarium.
His father Wang Shi, 40, a local government official, supports his dream. "Although the space program is very expensive, it's necessary to develop an economy founded on science and technology," he said. "Also, it's a symbol of China's growing national power, and makes me proud."
Not all Chinese are so impressed. "The Shenzhou 10 mission is nothing to do with ordinary people who are still poor, bullied, can't afford an apartment and hospital fees, or to study. More space missions means ordinary people will be poorer, because it's all tax payer's money," playwright Yu Xiaochen wrote earlier this month on the Twitter-like Sina Weibo microblogging service.

Sonic and the Black Knight (Wii) review
"One thing I was pleased to find is that even though you can unlock familiar characters with their own styles of play, it's quite possible to speed through the whole game as Sonic. There are no more stops by fishing holes to find Froggie, no blind leaps as a heavy robot. Even when you're searching for hidden fairies, you're doing so with an emphasis on speed. Sonic and the Black Knight has the length to match and exceed nearly any Sonic the Hedgehog game you'd care to name and it does so with very little in the way of filler."
Have you ever heard the phrase "couldn't see the forest for the trees"? I'll assume that you have. It's pretty popular and also one that I rather like. There are a lot of people who go through life worrying about little details while ignoring the big picture. The expression fits for a lot of situations, people and things, with the trees and forest being swapped out to serve each individual circumstance. Take Sonic and the Black Knight, for example. It's a meaty adventure starring Sonic the Hedgehog, but people seem unwilling to look at it that way. They're too busy getting hung up over the fact that "Oh no, there's a sword in the game." They say 'sword,' I say 'trees.'
Let's talk about the sword for a minute, though. The setup behind the game is that one day Sonic was eating some hot dogs when suddenly he got pulled into a vortex. Before he knew what to think, he found himself falling through the air and landing on the ground in a spiny blue heap. There, a sorceress asked that he please dispatch of a dark knight and his minions. Sonic complied, the damsel was saved and now the heroic mammal has embarked on a quest to rid medieval Camelot of the dark menace posed by its rogue ruler, the nefarious King Arthur.
Sonic doesn't remember the story going quite like that, and neither will any well-read players, but that's okay. It works. As a nifty side bonus, it also explains why Sonic is carrying around a huge sword!
Once we've made our peace with the sword's existence, something that should take all of three seconds upon actually playing through any stage in the game, then there's still the concern that it will fundamentally change how Sonic plays. There's actually no reason to stress, though; more than you'd think, perhaps even more than you'd dare hope, Sonic and the Black Knight is a return to Sonic the Hedgehog games as we remember them. It's pretty, it's fast and--far more than the prophets of Sonic doom would have you believe--it's fun. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean that it has no issues.
The primary issue is a short campaign. When you select the 'Adventure' mode from the main menu, it's quite possible that the ensuing quests won't take you more than 4 or 5 hours to complete. However, that's true only if you avoid all of the extra content. In a curious design decision, the developers made the bulk of the experience entirely optional. In some ways this works in the game's favor by keeping things short and to the point, but it also makes it possible for the incredibly stupid player to moan about how the game is inexcusably short, all without playing 70% of it. There really are people who do such things with their time. Pity them.
Of course, the person who actually sticks around to play the whole game is in for quite the experience. There are nearly 90 missions in total and several of the most interesting ones are only accessible once the final credits have rolled. These take you back to the same locations you've already visited, but there often are fundamental changes that make things interesting. You'd be surprised what a difference it makes when you are asked to complete a run through an area with only 8 sword strokes, or when you have to keep a combo of rings flowing from the start of a stage to its finish or whatever else the developers throw at the surprised player.
One thing I was pleased to find is that even though you can unlock familiar characters with their own styles of play, it's quite possible to speed through the whole game as Sonic. There are no more stops by fishing holes to find Froggie, no blind leaps as a heavy robot. Even when you're searching for hidden fairies, you're doing so with an emphasis on speed. Sonic and the Black Knight has the length to match and exceed nearly any Sonic the Hedgehog game you'd care to name and it does so with very little in the way of filler.
One criticism I have heard leveled toward this game is that it slows things down too frequently when the time comes to engage in combat. However, I had little difficulty keeping things moving at an exhilarating pace as I worked through Sonic and the Black Knight. If I came upon a group of soldiers and skidded to a halt to fight them all, it meant I was doing something wrong. Why stop to exchange dull blows with armored buffoons when a quick swipe of the Wii Remote sent me hurtling toward them like a furry cannon ball? Why would I ever dream of a slow-paced duel when I could launch myself into the air, then plummet toward them with blade whirling and watch them fall apart like Humpty-Dumpty?
Combat in Sonic and the Black Knight isn't a plague on the franchise at all. If anything, it's closer to the old Sonic mechanics than we've seen in a long while. Even the Soul Surge meter--a bar that fills up with energy as you collect red fairies throughout the stages or get the better of your opponents--allows you to slow time and then fly through your toughest opponents in a blue blaze. It's tremendously satisfying.
There's also a lot of good to be said about the visual style, which stands proud among some of the finest looking games available on the system (Super Mario Galaxy and de Blob, I'm looking at you). There are frequent water effects that look downright beautiful, but the real strengths contribute to the less obvious moments of beauty. When Sonic is racing through a foreboding forest and the shadows and dense grass conspire to send chills down your spine, you'll know that the artists have done something special. When you're riding a chunk of rock across a bubbling lake of lava or leaping to avoid shockwaves as a dragon slams his giant maw against the earth, you won't be pausing to think how amazing it is that the Wii can handle this sort of stuff; you'll be busy feeling immersed.
So, why don't I give Sonic and the Black Knight a higher rating if I think it's so dang peachy? Mostly, it comes down to the faults I've already mentioned. As beautiful as they may be, some of the stages do get tiresome before you're through with them. The main adventure's brevity also means that gamers thirsty for an involving tale of chivalry and hedgehogs will find surprisingly little substance. The unlockable characters and the challenges for completing stages at different levels of proficiency also can feel at times like features that were included just to make the game longer, not necessarily better. Put those few issues aside, though, and the final package is definitely worth a look. If you can see past the sword, that is...

Urbanix (Wii)
There's a lot of content to clear in Urbanix and the design is generally inviting, but most of the experience is similar enough that you might not appreciate the volume.
Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles (Wii)
A light gun game might not seem like an ideal match for Raccoon City's horrors, but it actually works out quite nicely overall.
The Witch and the Hundred Knight (PlayStation 3)
Come spend 80 hours doing your best to turn a beautiful world into a messy swamp, because Metallia said so.

American Modern: Hopper to O'Keefe @ the MoMA
"Drawn from MoMA’s collection, American Modern takes a fresh look at the Museum’s holdings of American art made between 1915 and 1950, and considers the cultural preoccupations of a rapidly changing American society in the first half of the 20th century. Including paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, and sculptures, American Modern brings together some of the Museum’s most celebrated masterworks, contextualizing them across mediums and amid lesser-seen but revelatory works by artists who expressed compelling emotional and visual tendencies of the time.
The selection of works depicts subjects as diverse as urban and rural landscapes, scenes of industry, still-life compositions, and portraiture, and is organized thematically, with visual connections trumping strict chronology. Artists represented include George Bellows, Stuart Davis, Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Charles Sheeler, Alfred Stieglitz, and Andrew Wyeth, among many others. Far from an encyclopedic view of American art of the period, the exhibition is a focused look at the strengths and surprises of MoMA’s collection in an area that has played a major role in the institution’s history."

yup. i still play with "toy cars" but id like to think im a little more so-fisticated than dat i race radio controlled cars and collect/restore vintage ones as well. all the same adjustments you can make on 1:1 cars you can do with these. caster, camber, tires, etc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaXLtPGrTGQhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6chVGe1VAcwi myself race a little of everything but my heart belongs to dirt and carpet oval.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vd3ZKHSM6Pghttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYvOUmgiO_Y

ATHLETE OF THE WEEKHudson Catholic’s Pilovsky fitting in nicely
Apr 28, 2013 | 2153 views | 0 | 5 | | Hudson Catholic junior pitcher Brandon Pilovsky
After spending his first two years of high school at Seton Hall Prep, but never getting a chance to play varsity baseball there, Brandon Pilovsky wanted a change of pace – not necessarily one coming from his right arm.“I wanted to come home,” Pilovsky said. “I had two brothers who went to St. Peter’s Prep, but I didn’t want to follow in their footsteps. I wanted to do my own thing.”So instead of heading to Grand and Warren like his older brothers (one of whom Anthony graduated last year and is playing baseball at the University of Scranton), Brandon Pilovsky elected to transfer to McGinley Square and Hudson Catholic.“I knew some of the players there and I liked the way they were treated by their coaches,” Pilovsky said.Pilovsky got a chance to know many of the Hudson Catholic players from participating in the Major League Baseball RBI program over the summer.“I knew most of the people, so I kind of just fit right in,” Pilovsky said.Hudson Catholic head coach Alberto Vasquez was familiar with Pilovsky.“I knew something about him from the RBI program,” Vasquez said. “When he said he wanted to be closer to home and came to us, it really helped us.”But no one could have predicted how well Pilovsky has done with the Hawks.“I’m a little shocked with how dominating he’s been,” Vasquez said. “He throws strikes and gets it done.”That’s an understatement. In fact, Pilovsky’s start to the season with the Hawks is very similar to the sensational start that New York Mets right-hander Matt Harvey has had.“He keeps the ball low and has a great command of the strike zone,” Vasquez said. “He knows how to pitch. He has incredible control of all of his pitches.”Pilovsky has pitched 29 innings this season for the Hawks. He has struck out 49 batters and allowed only nine hits and five walks. Those numbers are very similar to Harvey indeed.Last Wednesday, Pilovsky spun off another gem, throwing a three-hit shutout against Dickinson, winning 7-0 for his fourth win of the season, striking out 12 in the process.For his efforts, Pilovsky has been selected as The Hudson Reporter Athlete of the Week for the past week.Pilovsky is also shocked with his performance.“I’m a little surprised, because I never played varsity baseball before,” Pilovsky said. “In my mind, I think I knew I could do it. It came pretty natural to me. But the statistics are pretty amazing to me. I guess I’m lucky to have a good command of the strike zone and that enables me to get ground balls and easy fly balls.”Pilovsky is the type of pitcher whose velocity improves with every pitch.“I do feel that I throw harder as the game goes on,” Pilovsky said. “I’m also able to throw my curveball for strikes and that helps a lot.”Pilovsky also has a workout ritual that has helped him get stronger.“I run after every game and that helps to build my leg strength,” Pilovsky said. “I’m just trying to attack hitters and put the pressure on them instead of me. I feel that I am getting stronger as the season moves on.”Vasquez likes Pilovsky’s composure on the mound.“Nothing rattles him at all,” Vasquez said. “He’s in command. He’s constantly in the strike zone. When he gets the ball, I don’t have to worry about anything. When you have a kid like Brandon, it’s easy to move him right to the top of your pitching staff. He’s earned it and he came in wanting to earn it. He’s taking the ball and beating the top teams. He’s always calm and confident. He’s very intelligent. He’s just good to have around.”Vasquez believes that Pilovsky has a chance to be a big-time college pitcher.“He can definitely pitch on the next level,” Vasquez said. “He may even be a Big East-type pitcher. We still have another year to develop him.”“When he says that about me, it means a lot,” Pilovsky said. “I still have time to mature and grow and get better overall, but when he’s saying that, it means a lot. He’s helped me a lot to become a better pitcher.”And the best is yet to come with Pilovsky.“It’s exciting,” Vasquez said. “He’s great to watch. He gives us a chance to win every game he pitches.”“I’m glad I made the right decision to come to Hudson Catholic,” Pilovsky said.It’s safe to say Hudson Catholic feels the same way. – Jim Hague Jim Hague can be reached at [email protected].

Hobokenite Kyla Garcia Makes the Cut as Finalist in Twinkie Byrd's 2013 Monologue Slam
Hoboken native Kyla Garcia has been chosen as a finalist in Twinkie Byrd's 2013 Monologue Slam. Acclaimed casting director Twinkie Byrd (most recently taking the industry by storm for her stellar casting in the Sundance darling "Fruitvale Station”) created her Monologue Slam last year to give up and coming actors an opportunity to shine. Hundreds of actors from around the globe submitted monologue entries on YouTube for this year's Slam and only twelve finalists were chosen. The Rutgers B.F.A. graduate first began acting in Calabro Primary School and later went on to star in many productions at A.J. Demarest Middle School under the guidance of beloved Hoboken teacher Margo Singaliese. She continued to hone her craft in multiple productions at High Tech High School under the direction of acclaimed musical theatre director Alex Perez receiving a Papermill Playhouse Best Supporting Actress nomination for the role of “Catherine” in ‘Pippin’ along the way. Garcia starred in her first off-Broadway production at the age of 15 as “Dorothy” in the Papermill Playhouse Best Musical Winner “Oz: A Twisted Musical.” What started as a childhood dream transformed into a true career path as Garcia was accepted into Rutgers University’s prestigious B.F.A. Acting program where she spent her junior year abroad studying the classics at Shakespeare’s Globe in London, England. Garcia is the only finalist to be representing New Jersey in the 2013 competition and will be performing as 'Boochie' in a piece from “Den of Thieves” written by award-winning NY based playwright Stephen Adley Guirgis. The Slam was hosted in conjunction with the Hollywood Black Film Festival and took place on Saturday October 5th at 7PM at the W Hotel in Hollywood. Tickets for the Slam are $10 and can be purchased here: http://www.flavorus.com/event/Twinkie-Byrds-Monologue-Slam/193799 Copyright 2014 Hudson Reporter. All rights reserved.

I have a confession to make. When Peter Jackson kicked off his Lord of the Rings trilogy, it was to my eight year-old self what Irish boy bands are to Louis Walsh; pure brilliance. It could have been terrible, but thankfully wasn't, which meant I'd always sort of assumed he'd go on and make a film for The Hobbit too, once the hype had died down a bit.
The Hobbit, it must be noted, reads rather differently to the other Tolkien books. It's much easier to read, shorter in length, and comes across as more of a fairy tale than a saga. Everything is less epic and more intimate - it's not so much a great war as a colossal treasure hunt.
The film more or less suits this notion, as most of the action revolves around the thirteen dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield and their burglar, Bilbo Baggins. The latter is played superbly by Martin Freeman, who reinforces Bilbo as a fish-out-of-water-type hero with nothing but his own wits to keep himself steady.
Other acting highlights include Andy Serkis as Gollum- who manages to cram all of the humor and lingering menace we'd seen in LOTR into one scene of delightful madness -and Ian McKellen's touching portrayal of Gandalf, who provides the feel-good line of the year. Each of the dwarves has something new to offer, whether it's James Nesbitt as the everyman Bofur or Ken Stott as the paternal Balin, and it's a welcome reprieve from the usual sort of modern hero who tends to have the personality of a bored greyhound.
In terms of plot, there will inevitably be certain flaws only bookworms will care about, because films never stick completely to the books they're based on.This one certainly doesn't. The book is smaller than the Fellowship of The Ring alone, and the latter wasn't divided into three parts - as a result, Jackson has had to flesh the film out with a few of his own ideas. Most of these work pretty well, in fairness to him, although it does take away some of the book's original charm when you've got so many dramatic set pieces on show.
These undoubtedly make the film's controversial 48 frame-rate shine, however, providing the sort of moments you replay in your head over and over again. My personal favorite comes right near the start, when we are introduced to the dragon Smaug, the dwarves of Erebor, a small boy holding a bow and a suitably amazing dwavern city.
Other additions include certain characters having bigger roles than they do in the book, much as Haldir did in The Two Towers. Again, these are well-judged; the book, for instance, features few major female characters, so it was perfectly apt for Galadriel to appear in a role that suited both her character and the timeline of the novel. Radagast the Brown is another welcome addition, after failing to get even a mention in Jackson's previous trilogy.
It's also worth saying how nice panoramic shots of the countryside look through the new cameras. I'm not talking about forlorn English meadows here; I'm talking vast swathes of lonely mountainside, the sort of terrain that was seemingly designed by a bunch of omnipotent nerds as somewhere to relax and think about dragons for all eternity.
As it stands, then, The Hobbit is something of a wonder. On one hand, it's an endearingly unique fantasy romp that will impress fans with it's choice of casting and win over the rest with a mix of charm and stunning visual pieces.
On the other, not only is it around 170 minutes long, it's also a bit of a nightmare thinking how Jackson will top this with the next two installments.
Unexpected sounds about right.

Austan Goolsbee To Chair Council Of Economic Advisers, Replacing Christina Romer

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama elevated his longtime adviser Austan Goolsbee to chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers on Friday, signaling his determination to stand by an economic team that has faced criticism for the slow pace of the recovery.
Goolsbee's appointment caps a week in which Obama looked to regain his footing on the economy, calling for a series of infrastructure investments and business tax credits that the administration hopes will ease the worries of anxious voters, as well as Democrats who fear the sluggish economy could lead to sweeping losses for the party in the midterm elections.
The 41-year-old Goolsbee is already a central player on the Obama economic team, having served on the three-member economic council since the start of the administration. He was economic adviser on Obama's 2004 Senate race and a senior economic policy adviser during the 2008 presidential campaign.
On Friday, Obama praised Goolsbee as a brilliant economist who "has a deep appreciation of how the economy affects everyday people and he talks about it in a way that's easily understood."
Goolsbee takes over the council's chairmanship from Christina Romer, who left the White House Sept. 3 to return to a teaching position at the University of California Berkley.
Romer, one of the few high-ranking women on the economic team, was credited with raising the profile of the Council, which analyzes economic data and makes policy recommendations to the president. Romer was a constant presence at the president's economic briefings, alongside Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Larry Summers, director of the National Economic Council.
Administration officials said Goolsbee's relationship with Geithner and Summers is already well-established and his take-over of the advisory group should ensure a smooth transition for the economic team. Obama underscored that point Friday, noting that his longtime adviser, "already knows and works with the rest of the team very well."
But with unemployment near 10 percent, some of Obama's critics say the president should have appointed someone with a fresh perspective.
House Minority Leader John Boehner, who called for Obama to fire his entire economic team during a speech last month, said Goolsbee's appointment, "represents a commitment to more of the same failed stimulus policies."
"This president urgently needs people around him who've created jobs in the private sector and understand the challenges small businesses face, people who aren't wed to the worn-out notion that our nation can simply spend its way back to prosperity," Boehner continued in a statement.
However, one administration official said Goolsbee could be the right choice to shake-up an economic team that's grasping for ways to spur growth and create jobs. While Romer was a strong, influential voice on the overall state of the economy, the official said Goolsbee is more of a creative thinker who is likely to challenge the assertions of other members of the team, including the president. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss internal White House matters.
Goolsbee's promotion doesn't require Senate confirmation because he was already confirmed as a member of the Council last year.

In this "blogging age," where anyone's art can spread from one country to the next in seconds, the idea of writing letters or spreading art through the mail- a much more personal and tangible experience- seems like a thing of the past. The 1000 Journals Project is an ongoing, collaborative global art project that began in San Francisco in 2000, when 100 journals were released into the world- left at bars and cafe's, and distributed to the founder's friends. 10 years and 1000 journals later, the project has evolved into a documentary and a book, and now, an exhibit at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. This global project is open to all willing to participate; check out how to get involved on 1001 Journals. FOLLOW HUFFPOST ARTS

Radio Makes People 'Happier' Than TV or Internet, New Study Finds
, Arbitron
, Daily Mail
, Media Happiness
, Michael Keith
Perhaps the future of media lies in a retreat to the past. A new study commissioned in the U.K. by the Radio Advertising Bureau concluded that listening to the radio makes people happier than watching TV or surfing the Internet.
1,000 Britons participated in the study, using their smartphones to respond to questions about their media consumption and emotional responses at various times of the day.
"On average, when consuming radio, happiness & energy scores increase by 100% and 300% compared to when no media is being consumed," the study found. But happiness increased most when that media was the radio.
Radio is a kind of "lifestyle support system," the authors wrote, which helps people feel better as they go about their days. Many respondents didn't realize how important radio was in their lives until they had participated in the exercise.
To Michael C. Keith, a professor at Boston College and a leading scholar in history and electronic media, these conclusions come as no surprise. "Why else do people listen to music radio, other than to get enjoyment out of it?" he asked HuffPost in an interview last week. "People don't listen to radio to be depressed, certainly not when it comes to entertainment radio or music radio. The whole idea of listening to radio is to gain companionship and, at the same time, enjoyment."
Indeed, the study's participants claimed to experience "peaks and troughs" while consuming TV and online media, but radio provided a "consistent environment themed and shaped" to suit their needs at any given moment. Generally, we can all agree, people like listening to music. We all have a station we prefer with music we know we'll like, and unless we just broke up with our significant others, for the most part we're choosing music that will make us feel good.
"Radio is like ice cream," Keith said. "You choose the station that tastes best to you -- the flavor you like the best is going to give you enjoyment."
Whereas trolling online might occasionally present you with an uncomfortable activity -- checking your bank statement perhaps, looking for jobs or watching a really non-cute cat do something awful -- television has always been considered the ultimate in escapism. However, many respondents claimed they experienced a low after watching their favorite programs, as they were suddenly plunged back into "real life."
Radio, on the other hand only improved and supported peoples' daily activities, like cleaning up around the house, or getting ready in the morning. Many respondents also listened to the radio while they did other work online.
"More than anything else," Keith said. "[Radio] is used to provide companionship, to soothe, to reassure, to make happy."
According to the Daily Mail, U.K. radio listenership is at a record high, with "91.6 per cent of the population" tuning in each week. And listenership in the U.S is also increasing at a rapid pace, according to Arbitron, a leading media and marketing research firm in D.C. Arbitron found in a recent "Infinite Dial" study that 242 million Americans currently listen to the radio each week, and online radio consumption has doubled every year since 2001.
The Arbitron study also concluded, like the U.K. study, that radio is more "resilient" than ever. The medium continues to embrace social media and smart phone technology to interact with their listener base, and "few (if any) digital platforms have Radio’s scale or ability to drive its over-the-air users to their online digital platforms and those of their advertisers."
Bill Rose, the Senior Vice President of Marketing for Arbitron, said that listeners grow more attached to the stations they frequent, and remain loyal for the rest of their lives, in many cases.
"People don't read the New York Times for years and then go out and buy a New York Times sweatshirt," he said. "But people really care about the stations they listen to, and they'll buy and wear the material from [those stations]."
Radio is such an integral part of our daily lives that perhaps we've forgotten how it truly affects us. "A lot of the new media gets more press, more buzz, more attention," Rose explained. "But people use radio more year over year."

The Web is not a printed sheet of paper and those publishing content online should experiment with what that means. It won't only make the news online more interesting, it may actually make it worth paying for. Mitch Joel: The Me Media
The discourse of 'me media' lives within the sharing of the content to other platforms and within the comments. While some traditional media outlets have integrated many of this functionality, have they done so out of an understanding of new media, or as a reaction and financial need to seem relevant?

Pro Prop. 8 Attorney Cooper: You Can't Destroy Bigotry By Erasing Tapes

, Supreme Court
The lead defense attorney in the Prop 8 case, Charles Cooper, the lawyer that should actually know that this violates the equal protection clause of the Constitution yet still defends inequality, has asked the judge in the case to destroy the video tapes of the proceedings so far. The U.S. Supreme Court, signaling how it will vote, in a 5-4 move blocked the airing of the proceedings; proceedings We, The People, wanted to see, but they -- the judges -- have said "No!"
Cooper's rationale is an extension of the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling that if the tapes get out the witnesses defending Prop 8, defending inequality in contract law based on gender, will be unduly harassed and less apt to testify in future proceedings. In other words, the rights of those who would amend the Constitution of the State of California and of the United States, their right to not be harassed must supersede the First Amendment of the Constitution. So, exactly how much trampling on the Constitution is going to go on? The First Amendment has been disregarded, the XIV has been completely broken and ignored and the ones that must be protected are those that would oppress tax paying Americans based on religious dogma, thus violating the Church/State separation as well. Might as well make Constitutional door mats so everyone can walk on them like the Justices, Proponents of Prop 8, Cooper and the rest. And the ones who are being denied equal rights are offered no protection, no recourse, no remedy except to plod onward. Their fear over their bigotry, hatred, their uneducated, non-factual arguments based in religion and not law being one day exposed speaks volumes. It means even they know how wrong, how beyond-the-pale their arguments are; they don't want the world to see them for what they really are, hear them how they really sound under oath, watch their condemnation of people whose only crime is they want to enter a legal contract that others in their state enjoy and not be discriminated against based on gender. Because if people were to actually see it, hear it, watch it in depth, they would be able to see it for what it really, truly is. And those that defend Prop 8 have spent millions to make sure people don't understand what it really, truly is: Religious ideology codified as civil law.
And everyone sits back and accepts it; takes it. On my syndicated talk show January 14, 2010, the mood of every caller from San Francisco (Green960.com) was resigned that the U.S. Supreme would uphold Prop 8 5-4 just as they did the camera ruling. And when or if that happens, it will be accepted by many. But not all.
The U.S. Supreme Court's charter is to make sure that all laws pass Constitutional muster. That's it. Period. The XIV Amendment is very clear, and a fourth grader could see that Prop 8 clearly violates it. It would be a breach of ethics to uphold it, and ethic breaches can, in fact, be punished.
It is true no Justice of the Supreme Court has ever been removed through the impeachment process, it can be done. In 1805 Justice Samuel Chase was impeached by the House but the Senate failed to confirm. Justice Abe Fortas resigned, as the threat of impeachment loomed in 1969. It's time again.
It's the same process as for a President. We should be familiar, right? After all, we sat by and let a seated House and Senate impeach a seated President over lying about sex and then watched as they sat idly by while a war criminal launched an illegal occupation and destroyed the nation. A Supreme Court Justice can be removed for failing to do their job or for following some other code than the Constitution, like the Bible, or Partisan politics. How? This should excite those that love the Constitution.
It takes a supermajority, really, like the one voters gave the Democrats in 2008. First the House draws up the articles of impeachment. Then a majority passes them (Democrats, who claim to be for equal rights, have a majority). Then, the Senate, by 2/3 vote, which progressives allegedly have, confirms the impeachment and votes to remove the Justice.
They did it for a President whose only crime was lying about sex. Why can't liberals do it to seed a court with those that love the very document they are sworn to protect more than their seemingly antiquated ideologies? Each of the five that voted to bar the cameras, who spat on our First Amendment, should be put on notice: Ignore the Constitution again, and We, the People will do what document demands in that case.
Can't be done? Five years ago convince America they'd elect an African American named Barrack Hussein Obama. 30 Years ago tell America they'd impeach a President for oral sex. Or that the Supreme Court would rule outside their purview and hand the Presidency to a cabal of neocons. Stranger things have indeed, happened. 100 years ago tell people that the body would give Blacks the right to vote and be equal.
But it won't be done because true progressives, true liberals are not in power. Lovers of the Constitution, those that love or loved it enough to die for it, are far and few between in today's political landscape. If following the document causes any type of negativity that could lead to a loss of votes, then document be damned, we need the votes. The people spoke in 2008, they wanted to move forward, to progress. No matter who is elected, the nation cannot progress if the highest court in the land is populated with those whose interpretation of the very document they are sworn to defend is skewed by conservative religious social morays. The document is neither conservative nor liberal, it is plain in its language and as the T-shirt I designed in honor of this fight says, "Equal = Equal" and that says it all. When looking at any case, the first question should be does it meet that muster, does equal = equal or not?
The 47-year-old gay man that I am doesn't see the U.S. Supreme making marriage contract equality a reality in the near future. Nor for a moment do I believe any politician in office would even dare bring up the fact that the U.S. Supreme Court is moving far away from the very document they protect by a majority of one and that the country cannot wait until one dies or retires to get issues like equality of all Americans right. Shame on the U.S. Supreme Court for ignoring the First Amendment and shame on most of of the Court for what appears to be them trying to insulate themselves. The five of them know how they are going to vote, and it would appear by their ruling they don't want the testimony seen by the public on which they will base that decision. Why? Maybe because it will show how bigoted and antiquated such views are as well. But know this: I am an American. So are many others and we know the process to remove a justice and it can, in fact, be done. And as for Charles Cooper, shame on you. Shame. As an educated man you should know in the depths of your intellect that this is an equal protection contract law issue, and has nothing to do with marriage. The right afforded by the contract of marriage is not the issue, the exclusion from that contract is. And what else but shame could lead you, Mr. Cooper, or anyone on such a quest to destroy tapes of such a historical trial?

100 Days, 100 Foreign Policy Achievements
Posted April 27, 2009 | 14:54:37 (EST)
President Obama's first 100 days have seen an enormous amount of activity on national security - travel by the President, his Cabinet and envoys, gestures intended to signal a change in the US's approach to the world, and substantive reforms to policy overseas and the conduct of policy at...
What Real Diplomacy Looks Like
Posted April 2, 2009 | 15:01:14 (EST)
Barack Obama showed up in Europe this week and the world did not simply swoon at his feet. Some may choose to portray that as failure, but they would be dead wrong. Diplomacy is about interests and hard bargaining to find areas of common understanding. No matter how popular he...
The Case for a Middle Path in Afghanistan
Posted March 24, 2009 | 21:40:27 (EST)
As the president moves this week to make a decision on Afghanistan, three schools of thought have emerged on what he should do. The president could choose to go all in. He could choose a minimalist strategy. Or he could opt for something in the middle. The president has no...
What Obama's Iraq Speech Means for American Foreign Policy
Posted March 2, 2009 | 12:27:56 (EST)
President Obama's speech on Iraq was the culmination of something that many of us had been working towards for years. But it was more than just the beginning of the end of the war. It was also the clearest signal yet of what an Obama administration's foreign policy will look...
More Lies from Vice President Cheney
Posted December 17, 2008 | 15:43:35 (EST)
The scope of absurd statements and flat out debunked assertions in Vice President Cheney's ABC interview was pretty shocking. Spencer Ackerman debunks Cheney's statement's about the intelligence that was derived from waterboarding Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. And Think Progress takes care of the false assertion that somehow Saddam...
What Zawahiri's Message Says About Obama and Al Qaeda

Today, Al Qaeda's number 2, Ayman al-Zawahiri, released his first message since the election.

Is Al Qaeda Messing With Our Elections?
Posted October 30, 2008 | 18:30:34 (EST)
The front page of Drudge is hyping the much anticipated "Al Qaeda endorsement" saying that "al Qaeda Wants Republicans, Bush 'Humiliated." Of course Drudge's whole point here is to try and get folks believing that Al Qaeda supports Obama. The reality is much more complicated. As Reuters Read Post
McCain Again Failing Commander-in-Chief Test: This Time Syria
So how does the McCain campaign respond to sporadic news reports that U.S. special forces carried out an attack in Syrian territory? Well a responsible campaign (i.e. the Obama campaign) would follow the White House's lead and offer no comment until they got more information. But instead the McCain...
Does Palin Know What a Precondition Is?
Doesn't sound like it according to this exchange with Brian Williams.BRIAN WILLIAMS: Gov. Palin, yesterday, you tied this notion of an early test to the president with this notion of preconditions, that you both have been hammering the Obama campaign on. First of all what in your mind is...
The Powell Endorsement and the End of the Republican Foreign Policy Establishment

1. KNOWLEDGE: Governor Palin must demonstrate the knowledge necessary to be Commander-in-Chief.Governor Palin has repeatedly cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as a qualification for being Commander-in-Chief.

The McCain-Palin Gibberish Iran Policy
Posted September 30, 2008 | 15:52:13 (EST)
One of the things that hasn't been covered much coming out of the debate, is that McCain's Iran policy has turned to absolute gibberish. After the past few days, it appears that McCain's policy is that Iran developing nuclear technology is an urgent problem that must be stopped to avoid...
Obama Passes Commander in Chief Test
So what came out of this debate that John McCain tried to evade? The pressure was on McCain to win and win big. But he didn't do that. Not at all. Obama won on key issues demonstrating that our foreign policy is more than just about the surge. McCain frequently...
Palin Calls Kissinger Naive

Palin's Dangerous Saber Rattling on Russia
Sarah Palin said something very very dangerous today during her interview with Charlie Gibson.PALIN: Well, you know, the Rose Revolution, the Orange Revolution, those actions have showed us that those democratic nations, I believe, deserve to be in NATO.

Picking a Fight With Russia: Very Presidential
Posted August 8, 2008 | 16:27:19 (EST)
Things seem to have gone very wrong in Georgia and South Ossetia. It doesn't really look like anybody has a very clear idea of what is going on. As a presidential candidate you have two choices: A. Take a cautious approach and call for the cession of violence on...
The Surge or the Surge?
Posted July 24, 2008 | 01:03:34 (EST)
John McCain's latest argument is to somehow try to retroactively argue that by "surge" he meant "counterinsurgency strategy" and that the counterinsurgency strategy and thus the surge actually went back to 2006. Here is the video: One problem. Just two months ago McCain came under attack for saying this:"I can tell you that it is succeeding. I can look you in the eye and tell you it's succeeding. We have drawn down to pre-surge levels." Of course, U.S. forces hadn't drawn down to "pre-surge" levels. They are only now just getting back to 140,000, which is still above pre-surge levels. But that's besides the point. What was McCain referring in that moment? Was he saying "We are drawing back down to where we were before Colonel McFarland started using counterinsurgency tactics in Anbar as part of the Anbar Awakening." No, that is completely and patently absurd. He meant that we are coming back down to pre-January 2007 numbers when the "surge" actually began. In fact, he added later:"The surge, we have drawn down from the surge and we will complete that drawdown to the end -- at the end of July. That's just a factual statement."According to this statement John McCain is basically asserting that the surge is over. But based on his own definition today the "surge" actually equals the counterinsurgency strategy. So, is the counterinsurgency strategy over? I think that might be news to General Petraeus. Basically this is one of the most pathetic attempts of political spin that I have seen in quite a while. Let's face it. When John McCain went on CBS he completely bungled the facts and demonstrated that he had no idea of how the surge and Anbar Awakening played out. His attempted explanation today by somehow claiming that by "surge" he actually meant the counterinsurgency strategy that was going on months before the troop increase, might make sense if he hadn't spent the past few months defining and referring to the surge as the troop increase that began in early...
Not a Gaffe: A Fundamental Misunderstanding of Iraq
John McCain made a mistake this evening, which as far as I'm concerned, disqualifies him from being president. It is so appalling and so factually wrong that I'm actually sitting here wondering who McCain's advisers are. This isn't some gaffe where he talks about the Iraq-Pakistan border. It's a real...
A Surreal Moment in Iraq
It's become pretty apparent both from Prime Minister Maliki's statements over the past few days as well as through a slew of other assertions from senior Iraqi officials that they are comfortable with the idea of a timeline for the withdrawal of American combat forces by sometime in 2010 and...

Jordan Chael won the Class 5A state title in October.
Huskers Sign Kansas Prep Champion Chael
Nebraska women's golf coach Robin Krapfl announced the signing of Kansas high school state champion Jordan Chael to a National Letter of Intent to join the Huskers as a freshman in 2013-14.
Krapfl said she was thrilled to add Chael, who has been ranked as the No. 58 player in the Class of 2013 by Golfweek, to a young Husker roster for the 2013-14 season.
"I can't begin to express how excited we are have Jordan join our team next fall," Krapfl said. "We feel she will have an immediate impact on our starting lineup. Jordan has shown great accuracy off the tee and is already comfortable shooting under par. She also has an excellent competitive nature. All three of those areas will help strengthen our team. Jordan also has demonstrated a strong work ethic and is an excellent student.
Chael, a senior at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in the Kansas City metro area, won the Kansas State Class 5A individual state championship in October of 2012, while leading St. Thomas Aquinas to the state team title. During her final three seasons at St. Thomas Aquinas, Chael won or tied for first in 21 of 27 tournaments.
Chael was a four-time Kansas City Star All-Metro selection, earning first-team honors in 2010, 2011 and 2012. The native of Overland Park, Kan., was also a three-time Class 5A Regional champion, while leading St. Thomas Aquinas to three straight Class 5A state team titles. Chael was the Class 5A individual state runner-up in 2011 and finished third in 2010. She finished fourth individually in Class 6A as a freshman in 2009.
She was also the Missouri Women's Golf Association State Junior champion in 2012. Chael took second at the AJGA Coca-Cola Junior Championship in Harbor Springs, Mich., after firing a final round 66 and also posted top-five finishes at AJGA events in Springfield, Mo., and Kansas City, Mo.
Chael finished second as an individual at the Four State Team Championship in both 2011 (Beatrice, Neb.) and 2012 (Sedalia, Mo.), before taking third at the PGA Junior Series Tournament at ArborLinks in Nebraska City in June of 2012. She competed at the Callaway Junior World Championships in July at Torrey Pines in California. She also finished fifth at the Future Collegiate World Tour Tournament held at The Classic Club in Palm Desert, Calif., in February, before taking seventh at the Future Collegiate World Tour Championship held at PGA National in May.
Jordan is the daughter of Ted and Brenda Chael and has one older brother, Andrew.

Tag Archive | "Diamondbacks" Joe Kelly would be better choice to start during Jake Westbrook absence
Posted on 14 May 2013. Tags: Admirable Job, Arizona Diamondbacks, Bullpen, Cardinals Reliever, Diamondbacks, Fifth Day, Filling A Hole, Inflammation, Jaime Garcia, Jake Westbrook, Joe Kelly, John Gast, June Kelly, Major League Baseball, Mike Matheny, Pitches, Shoulder Injury, St Louis Cardinals, Third Day, Three Games, Workload
The St. Louis Cardinals suffered the first crack in their best-in-baseball starting rotation Sunday when they placed Jake Westbrook on the 15-day disabled list with elbow inflammation. The team decided to give Westrbook’s start to rookie John Gast, but they might have been better off to let a more experienced pitcher fill that role.
Joe Kelly made his Major League Baseball debut in similar circumstances last season after Jaime Garcia suffered a shoulder injury in June. Kelly went on to make 16 starts and post a 4-6 record with a 3.53 earned-run average, overall.
Although he didn’t have a winning record, Kelly did an admirable job filling a hole in the rotation last summer. He pitched six or more innings in all but three of his starts, and the Cardinals offense scored two or fewer runs in five of his six losses, and they scored just three in the other.
Kelly moved to the bullpen when Garcia returned in September and pitched well. He allowed just two runs in six appearances, but he also had a consistent workload by pitching about every third day. Manager Mike Matheny has significantly dropped his workload this season, and it’s shown in his results.
Kelly pitched twice in the Cardinals’ season-opening series in Arizona against the Diamondbacks, but he pitched only six more times the rest of April and had the fewest outings for any Cardinals reliever.
And then he imploded when the Cardinals did bring him into ballgames. He has allowed 10 runs in 11.2 innings pitched, but he’s also appeared in just three games in May. Perhaps a bigger role would help him get comfortable again and start to pitch better.
That’s also why a move to the rotation might help. Kelly would be guaranteed to pitch every fifth day, and he would be able to extend his pitch total well beyond what he gets as a member of the bullpen. He hasn’t thrown more than 27 pitches in an appearance this season, and that could quadruple if he moved to the rotation.
Plus, the Cardinals management wouldn’t have to hold its breath with another rookie on the mound to start a game.
Gast has been good for the Triple-A Memphis Redbirds. He’s 3-1 with a 1.16 ERA in seven starts this season in the minors, but there is always an unknown factor that comes into play when a rookie makes a start, and they often don’t pitch very deep into a ballgame.
The Cardinals might have left Kelly in the bullpen because they don’t want to force him to shift between starting and relieving if Westbrook comes back soon, but that shouldn’t be much of a problem since Kelly bounced between the rotation and bullpen last season and worked as a starter in spring training because he was in contention for the fifth spot in the rotation with Shelby Miller.
The Cardinals have even set a precedent for bringing up young pitchers this season when they brought Seth Maness and Carlos Martinez up from the minors. Both of those pitchers went straight into the bullpen and have done well.
Martinez gave up three runs Sunday to the Colorado Rockies in his third appearance, but he had not allowed a run and given up just one hit in his previous two outings. Meanwhile, Maness already has two wins, has allowed just one hit hasn’t walked a hitter in 3.1 innings through three outings.
Martinez and Maness could certainly become starters at some point in their career, yet the Cardinals will still send Gast to the mound while Martinez, Maness and Kelly sit in the bullpen.
Maybe Gast will be great and pitch the way Kelly and Lance Lynn did last season as fill-in rookie starters when they went a combined 23-14 with a combined 3.66 ERA.
But if he’s not, the Cardinals will have wasted games by hoping yet another rookie will do well in the rotation while Kelly sits in the bullpen.

Adam Moore Trying To Make His Case

The Kansas City Royals have very few “up for grabs” spots in Spring Training. Some players are going to have to really impress to crack the opening day roster this year.
Catcher Adam Moore is making an early attempt at impressing.

Make no mistake, despite his soon to come departure to the World Baseball Classic, Salvador Perez is the Royals catcher and rightfully so. However, the team has kept an open mind to who will travel with the team as his backup this season. July of last year shows a waiver transaction that had the Royals claiming Moore from the Seattle Mariners. He would appear in four games last year and compiling only twelve plate appearances.
This Spring, Moore has appeared in three of the four games that the Royals have played. He has shown consistent defense, which is his “calling card”. A good glove, a strong arm, and a suspect bat.
Two out of three ain’t bad.
Moore forgot that he was supposed to have a suspect bat. Small sample size and over-analyzing Spring stats will lead you down a dark path, but what you can see is a player that is playing with passion. In Monday’s 16-4 drumming of the Diamondbacks, Moore hit is second home run of the young spring. In addition, he held his batting average at .500 (again, small sample size, he has six at bats). He came into today’s action as a designated hitter, replacing Billy Butler in the process.
None of this means a whole lot at this point, but it does give Royals fans something to pay attention to. There is currently no guarantee who will be the backup catcher in a little over a month when the team breaks camp but one thing is for sure: starting catcher Salvador Perez leaves the team this week to represent his country in the World Baseball Classic. That will leave a lot of at bats, as well as a lot of time to get to know the pitching staff, to another player. That player will gain the opportunity to seize a roster spot and prove to manager Ned Yost why he deserves to be on the team.
Adam Moore can put a strong grip on that spot if he simply continues to do what he is doing right now.

Rob Rains Inside Baseball: 10 Most Important Cardinals In The Second Half
Posted on 13 July 2011. Tags: Ace, Albert Pujols, All Star, Broken Arm, Cardinals, Chris Carpenter, Contract Status, Diamondbacks, Eighth Inning, Game Winning Streak, Homers, Losing Streaks, Nl Central, No Doubt, Obstacles, Organization Effort, Remarkable Achievement, Rob Rains, Saturday Night, Second Half
The Cardinals have arrived at the All-Star break with a 49-43 record, tied with Milwaukee for first place in the NL Central. Considering all of the obstacles the team has had to endure in the first half of the season, it really is a remarkable achievement – even in a less-than-stellar division.
It will not be easy, however, for the Cardinals to stay in that spot the rest of the season. Whether or not that can happen will no doubt be a team, and an organization, effort – but there are some individuals whose performances likely will matter a little more than others.
Here then is the list of the 10 Most Important Cardinals for the second half of the season:
The Cardinals are used to having Pujols carry them, but that has not happened so far this year. If anything, it is the Cardinals who have carried Pujols. Even if Pujols’ poor start to the season and his absence for two weeks with a broken arm have left him in a tough spot to extend his streak of hitting 30 homers, driving in 100 runs and hitting .300 or better, he still can carry the Cardinals to a division title.
1. Albert Pujols.
What Pujols needs to do is forget about what has happened so far, forget about any statistical goals and forget about his contract status – none of which will be easy. He needs many more moments like his key eighth-inning home run on Saturday night. If Pujols can come out and let his talent and ability take over, he can be the dominating player the Cardinals need him to be – and then everything else will take care of itself.
2. Chris Carpenter.
His 1-7 start was well documented, even if he was pitching better than his record. A three-game winning streak followed, but then he was roughed up by the Diamondbacks on Saturday night.
For the Cardinals to win, they must have an ace in the starting rotation, a pitcher who can go out and stop losing streaks. With Adam Wainwright out for the year, Carpenter has to be that pitcher. Jaime Garcia does not have the experience to do it, even if he has the ability, and it isn’t fair to expect it from any of the team’s other three starters,
Carpenter does not have to have a John Tudor-like season from 1985, throwing 10 shutouts and finishing with a sub-2.00 ERA, but he has to be the leader and the hammer on the staff. Like Pujols, he can’t let his personal situation – wondering if the Cardinals will pick up his option for next year – get in the way of pitching, and winning, the way he can.
3. Fernando Salas.
Barring a trade for a more proven closer, Salas is going to be the guy. He had a solid first half, converting 16 of 18 save opportunities, and showed composure like a veteran. Trying to close out games in a pennant race in August and September, however, is a challenge he has never experienced before.
As the Cardinals saw when Ryan Franklin was struggling at the start of the year, nothing can deflate a team quicker than blowing leads in the ninth inning. Blowing one game is one thing, but a closer has to have the ability to forget about it immediately and not let it become a habit. Whether Salas has the ability to do that, as a rookie, will be one of the main factors determining the team’s success or failure the rest of the season.
4. David Freese.
When you look at the Cardinals’ lineup, and the performances of those players in the first half of the season, there are only three who really can be expected to produce at a higher level in the second half – and the most important to the team’s success might be Freese.
If he can stay healthy, and hit for a high average and drive in runs as he has done in the past, Freese will help take some of the pressure off the Cardinals’ main offensive threats in Pujols, Matt Holliday and Lance Berkman. Freese also should be able to pick up some of the slack if any of those should go into some kind of slumps.
5. Colby Rasmus.
The player other than Freese who needs to produce more in the second half of the season than he did in the first is Rasmus. He also has the pressure of worrying that he might lose some playing time to Jon Jay if he does not produce on a more consistent basis. If he struggles, he is also more likely to hear his name start to pop up in trade discussions, which might create a big distraction if he lets that bother him.
Hitting either second or sixth in the lineup most of the time, Rasmus will find himself at the plate in a lot of crucial situations. Hitting second, he has to be able to consistently get on base in fromt of Pujols, and if he is hitting sixth, RBIs have to become his major focus.
6. John Mozeliak.
The only non-player on the list is one of the Most Important Cardinals because he will be the person who determines what moves the team makes or doesn’t make before the July 31 trading deadline.
The team might try to add a proven closer, or they might decide to add a starting pitcher. For the first time in many years, the Cardinals have players in their farm system which other teams want. Mozeliak cannot be so short-sighted and focused on this season, however, that he makes a trade which will have a negative impact on the organization for years to come.
7. Kyle McClellan.
The converted reliever got off to a great start after moving into the starting rotation, but has struggled lately. He has to prove he can go deeper into games and come out on the winning side. Any struggles in the bullpen will increase the pressure on the Cardinals to move McClellan back to a relief role, and if he wants to remain a starter, for this year and beyond, he has to prove he can do the job.
8. A lefthanded reliever.
At the moment, the Cardinals do not have one on the roster who inspires confidence that he can come in and retire a lefthanded hitter at a key moment in the game. Whether Trever Miller, Raul Valdes, or Brian Tallet, when he comes off the disabled list, can become that reliever remains to be seen. More than likely, the pitcher who will be asked to fill that role in August and September is not currently on the roster.
9. Lance Berkman.
No doubt the biggest surprise of the first half for the Cardinals, there is little expectation that Berkman can repeat his success in the second half. He should not have to, if the team can get increased contributions from Pujols, Freese and Rasmus. What he will be called upon to do, however, is continue to be the motivating influence who has had such a positive impact on the team’s attitude and camaraderie.
10. Jon Jay.
He might be the player who puts the most pressure on manager Tony La Russa in the second half, trying to figure out a way to keep him in the lineup on a consistent basis. The fact he is a better defensive center fielder than Rasmus, at least right now, is going to make it even tougher to have him sitting on the bench. The battle for playing time between Rasmus and Jay could become one of the more intriguing story lines to watch the rest of the season.

Keep On Keepin’ On
Posted on 07 May 2011. Tags: Augenstein, Batting Average, Blueprint, Brian Tallet, Bullpen, Cardinals, Diamondbacks, Dl, Eduardo Sanchez, Five Months, Hot Shot, Hot Streaks, Lance Berkman, Matt Holliday, Nick Punto, Nl Central, Regularity, Ryan Franklin, Skip Schumaker, Spring Training
After a slow, disheartening start the Cardinals have not lost a series since rolling into Arizona and taking two of three from the Diamondbacks April 11-13.
The level of competition from those teams has been diverse; the Cards are beating good teams AND bad teams, which is a nice change from constantly getting beat by inferior clubs last year. They used to play to the level of their competition and now they just play. But it’s the kind of play that doesn’t seem ridiculous and unsustainable. It would be a little suspect if the team was on a 15-2 tear; those are awesome but hot streaks like that end. And I realize no one expects Matt Holliday and Lance Berkman to flirt with a .400 batting average over all 162 games this year. But could the Cardinals continue to be in most games, win series, and hold off the other teams in the NL Central for the next five months? Sure they can.
The normal blueprint for such a run always seems to start with health. “If they can stay healthy, they will be good.” I buy into that line of thinking, and even say it myself practically every year. But have the Cards been truly healthy at all this season? Adam Wainwright barely even saw Spring Training before he went down for the year. Nick Punto also saw little preseason action before hitting the DL and didn’t make his debut until a couple of weeks ago. The Cardinals lost two bullpen arms in Brian Tallet and Bryan Augenstein, Allen Craig took a turn on the DL, Skip Schumaker has been out for a few weeks, and David Freese just checked in for his yearly visit to the unavailable ward.
And yet the Cards keep on winning.
The team has evidently adopted a “closer by committee” even though hot shot newbie Eduardo Sanchez has taken hold of the role with more regularity of late. Much has been said about the bullpen’s troubles this year, but take Ryan Franklin out of the picture and none of the relievers currently on the team has an ERA over 3.00 going into Friday’s action. But then again, taking Franklin out of the picture means the Cards likely would not have a major league-leading eight blown saves. Since Franklin was relieved of his closer duties, several other Redbird relievers have hit bumps in the road trying to maintain a perfect save percentage too.
The team defense is kind of the pits. The Cards are second in the majors in errors with 28. That’s almost one per game. They are near the bottom of the majors in team fielding percentage, too, with .938. Yadier Molina is only throwing out base burglars at a 38% clip (his career average is 46%) and he already has three errors on the year after a total of five each of the last two seasons. Ryan Theriot has never had more than 15 errors in a season, but he’s already more than halfway to that total. Albert Pujols has four errors, and he’s never had more than 14 in a season.
So far, what the 2011 St. Louis Cardinals have showed more than anything is resiliency. But they have to keep it up: last year, the Cards woke up on May 7 to find themselves in first place with an 18-11 record. The difference is the 2010 Cardinals had not yet been bitten by the injury bug. This year’s team clearly already has. Injuries are a part of the game; how the team responds to them tells a lot about who they are. Getting it out of the way early? Perhaps. The season is still young, having just entered its sixth week. And once again, the Cards will not have their starting third baseman for an extended period. But unlike last year, Freese will return to the lineup. Tallet is on his way back. The younger players are gaining experience through extra playing time. And the Cardinals don’t have the added burden of being the favorite anymore, so maybe the team is a little looser this time around. Maybe the front office was right about the attitude/chemistry/character adjustments that were needed last offseason.
I can buy into that, too…as long as the Cards keep on winning.

Runs In Bunches

On Wednesday the Cardinals completed a 3-game series against Arizona in the desert. St Louis won 2 of the three games. That in and of itself is not remarkable; as mentioned last week, the Cardinals have had reasonable success in Tucson. What is unusual is how many runs the team scored in those three games.
To recap – St Louis won the opener 8-2 behind the resurgent Kyle Lohse, lost 8-13 behind surprisingly shaky Chris Carpenter, then bludgeoned their way to a 15-5 win in support of a grateful Jake Westbrook. Thirty-one runs in the series, with at least 8 runs in every game. Talk about runs in bunches. More perspective: they had scored only 27 runs total in their first nine games.
That many runs in a series has to be a rarity, right? How often have the Cardinals done that? Well, more often than I initially thought, but less often than one might expect.
Looking back over the past 50 seasons, the Cardinals have scored 8 or more runs in three consecutive games against the same opponent 17 times.
Length of series

3-game (off day 4/8)
8/16-17,19
Sportsman’s Park
3-game (off day 8/18)
In 1961, two of the three games were played as part of a double-header (on 17 July 1961). The third game of that set was the first game of a double-header played the next day – yes, on July 17 and 18 the Cardinals and Cubs played back-to-back double headers.
Note that over half of these 3-game sets have happened in the last 10 years. If one needed more proof offensive production has taken off in the recent history of the game, here it is. Additionally the Cardinals have turned this trick before in Arizona, ten years ago to the week.
What is unique about the recently completed series is the Cardinals did not win all three games during this offensive explosion. While not a rarity if the series is scheduled for longer than 3 games, it is a rarity for a three game set. The data presented here only goes back to 1961, however, I searched on Baseball Reference to see if St Louis had ever played a 3-game series in which they scored 8 or more runs in all three games and failed to win all three games. Baseball Reference carries game results back to 1919, and I looked at 2300+ games.
Never before had the Cardinals scored 8 or more runs in a 3-game series and not swept until the recently completed Arizona series.
I counted 36 series where they had scored 8 or more runs in 3 consecutive games on consecutive days against the same opponent through the 1926 season, when I stopped writing them down. In each instance where they lost on of the 3 games the series was at least 4 games long (and in 2 instances, 5 games).
A footnote to history, to be sure. However as a wise man once said, the great thing about baseball is you might see something today you’ve never seen before. We did not know it at the time, but during this mid-week series we all saw the Cardinals do something they had never done before.

Make sure you drop by our friends, Cards Droppings, for their analysis and generally solid baseball coverage. Thanks to them, we bring you a series preview for the Cardinals and Diamondbacks.
The Cardinals travel from San Francisco to Arizona, having dropped two of three to the Giants. If we had a decent closer, it’s very possible that we could have swept that series. Enough of that for now, as this is supposed to be a preview of the series with the Diamondbacks.
Arizona is off to a 4-4 start on the young season, but they just took two of three from the ’27 Yankees, er, I mean the Reds. They are led by manager Kirk Gibson, he of the “I don’t believe what I just saw” fame. The Cardinals really need their bats to wake up, and Arizona’s home stadium is a great place for offense. Hopefully with Matt Holliday back, we can finally begin to see the true potential of this team’s offense.
Our lineup tonight includes Holliday, Berkman, Pujols and Rasmus for the first time since Opening Day: Theriot 6, Rasmus 8, Pujols, 3, Holliday, 7, Berkman 9, Freese 5, Schumaker 7, Molina 2, McClellan 1. I sure wish TLR would consider swapping Berkman and Rasmus. I think Berkman is going to have a higher OBP at the end of the season and it would be nice to give guys like Pujols and Holliday chances to drive him in. Although, now that I say that, all it would do right now is give Albert more chances to ground into double plays…
Arizona has a lot of potential in its lineup, although it is one that can be pitched to. The offense is anchored by outfielders Justin Upton and Chris Young. Shortstop Stephen Drew, catcher Miguel Montero and second baseman Kelly Johnson are also threats, especially from the left side of the plate. All of these guys strike out at a pretty high rate, so hopefully our pitchers can avoid mistakes and give us a good shot at winning the series. The Diamondback bullpen is nothing too special, although JJ Putz and David Hernandez are going to be fairly tough at the back end of a game.
The Diamondbacks definitely figure to be one of the weaker teams in the National League this year, so it’s vital for the Redbirds to take two of three before they move onto a four game series at Dodger Stadium.

Royals Schedule Outlook: June
Posted on 25 March 2011.

The biggest story of June could be decisions facing the club regarding whether or not to call up any of their top prospects. Rookies called up in June or after do not qualify for “super two” status, thus delaying arbitration eligibility down the line. It will be an exciting month if one or more of the heralded prospects make their debut.
Besides that, the second half of the month will be entirely inter-league with series against the Cardinals, Diamondbacks, Cubs and Padres.
June Breakdown:
Home: 15
Road: 12
Vs teams with winning records in 2010: 14
Vs teams with losing records in 2010: 10
Vs teams in the AL Central: 4
Inter-league games: 12
Key Series:
June 2-5 vs. Minnesota – This is the only series against an AL Central opponent all month, but it will only be a key series if the Royals have a surprising start and are having dreams of contention.
June 17-19 @ St. Louis – After hosting the Cards in May, the Royals head across the state for the second part of the 2011 I-70 series.
Key To a Hot Start:
The first nine games of the month are home games, so the Royals will have to take full advantage of home cooking.
At the end of June:
If the Royals are above .500… The Royals will have beaten up on the National League, something that is not entirely out of the question.
If the Royals are .500… They will have significantly over-achieved.
If the Royals are below .500… No one will be surprised.

He’s not gone, folks. He’s here for the entire 2011 season, at which point more negotiating will take place. Even if he does end up elsewhere next season, repeat after me, “It’s. Not. The. End. Of. The. World.” Personally, I like the Cardinals chances of getting an extension done once the season is over. But should that not happen, we will survive. Why? Glad you asked.
Albert’s been on the roster for 10 years, 2001-2010. During that time, we’ve won exactly one World Series championship, 2006. Ten minus one is nine. Nine’s the new six. Confused yet? Here’s what I’m getting at: Nine is a serious number!
Fortunately, “nine” has no impact on trying to rhyme with “thumbah”.
We’ve had the best player in baseball for a decade, and 9 of those 10 years, a team not named the “St. Louis Cardinals” won the World Series. Giants-2010, Yankees-2009, Phillies-2008, Red Sox-2007, Cardinals-2006, White Sox-2005, Red Sox-2004, Marlins-2003, Angels-2002, D-Backs-2001. We had Albert in each of those years and only won the World Series once?! Inconthievable!
Nine also happens to be the number of World Series championships the Cardinals have won WITHOUT Albert Pujols. 1926, ‘31, ‘34, 42, ‘44, ‘46, ‘64, ‘67, ‘82–nine different occasions when the Cards won it all, without Albert on the roster. Granted, those eras were more focused on pitching, speed…etc, and this era is more based on power-hitting RBI hitmen like Pujols, but as I just said, 9 other teams got the hardware in the past 10 years.
Ready for another nine? How about these nine teams: A’s, Giants, Red Sox, Pirates, Padres, Bluejays, Diamondbacks, Mets, & Royals. That’s a list of where Cardinal favorites went after playing with the redbirds. “Who?” you ask? How about Willie McGee, Matt Morris, Ryan Ludwick, David Eckstein, and Joe McEwing. (In fairness, Super Joe did have 6 plate appearances, wearing the collar with two Ks for Houston to end his MLB career.)
Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing that would make me happier than for Pujols to be a Cardinal for life. It goes without saying that I don’t want that if it’s going to handcuff the team & not allow ownership to put a competitive team around him. I would love to go to games for the next 10 years and watch him make history wearing the birds on the bat. I’m just trying to make a point about this whole circus. It’s not like we’ve won 10 straight titles because of him, or only won titles when he was on the roster. His presence certainly helps, but when the Phillies won the 2008 World Series, they did so by defeating the sub-$44M payroll Rays (who won 97 games that year, btw). It’s baseball…not golf or tennis, where one man IS the team…not basketball where one guy can carry the team (even Jordan needed Pippen).
It takes nine. Nine guys, working in concert together, under the direction of good manager, a good front office, and a good ownership group, to have success. One man does not a team make. Nine, however, will do the trick. Coincidentally enough, nine may also be the number of years required to make Albert put pen to the paper next offseason.

Transcript of the Director General´s Interview On Winning the 2005 Nobel Peace Prize
Aired 7 October 2005
Telephone interview with Mohamed ElBaradei published on the web site of the Nobel Committee after the announcement of the 2005 Nobel Peace Prize, 7 October 2005. Interviewer is Marika Griehsel, freelance journalist. (See Nobelprize.org)
GRIEHSEL: Hello. Mr ElBaradei.
MOHAMED ELBARADEI, DIRECTOR GENERAL, IAEA: Yes, hello, Marika. How are you.
GRIEHSEL: Congratulations!
ELBARADEI: Thank you very much, thank you very much; I appreciate that.
GRIEHSEL: We´re happy that we will be able to speak to you for a few minutes.
ELBARADEI: Sure. Absolutely.
GRIEHSEL: What was you first thought when you heard about the award?
ELBARADEI: Well, absolutely overwhelmed and proud at the same time. I mean, humbled. That was actually the first thing: My God, that´s...
GRIEHSEL: You had no idea that it would come, in a way?
ELBARADEI: I had no idea. You know, I was reading the media, but in fact I knew about it from watching CNN, because the Committee could not get in touch with me for whatever... Anyway, I was at home and they called the office. So, I did not know and in fact I know they usually call before, and the fact that they didn´t call - I thought that we did not get it this year again.
GRIEHSEL: Okay
ELBARADEI: So it was an absolutely delightful surprise; I was just hugging my wife in front of the television.
GRIEHSEL: Great! And what is the feeling among the staff?
ELBARADEI: Well, I think the staff are bursting with pride. In a way it just gives recognition to the hard work they do, night and day - in the field, working with governments, against governments, trying to control nuclear material, possible nuclear terrorism - in the four corners of the globe. So I think it... And I´m very gratified that the Prize recognises, not just me, but equally every member of the staff. And that´s absolutely the right way to go, I think, in my view. Because, without the staff, we would not have been where we are.
GRIEHSEL: How do you think the organisation and you in person will be able to use the award in furthering the IAEA´s work?
ELBARADEI: Well, I think it will absolutely give us the encouragement, the support, particularly public support, Marika, and the added recognition, or status if you like, to go through the difficult road we are travelling - which is to make sure that nuclear weapons would not proliferate, that we control the already existing 50,000 warheads and hopefully move towards nuclear disarmament, that we make sure that nuclear terrorists will not acquire nuclear material... So it has very much strengthened my resolve - that I now know that the public at large are supporting our mission, recognising the importance of the mission, and it´s in fact an added responsibility on my shoulders to deliver and to meet the expectations of the Nobel Committee.
GRIEHSEL: Yes. Your predecessor, Hans Blix, in which way do you think he has influenced your work and the organisation´s work?
ELBARADEI: Well, Hans has been here for sixteen years; he has contributed a lot to the Agency; and, of course, the Agency is not just the last eight years that I´ve been here, the Agency has been around since 1957. So, of course, it´s work in progress, if you like, you know. Challenges have been different: now, of course, we are facing unprecedented challenges in the last few years, since Iraq, the Iraq ´91 war; and there´s been no let-go since that time. After Iraq there was Korea, there was Libya, there was Iran, 9/11... And we had to hit the ground running with regard to many of these issues. And we still have a very... a pretty difficult, challenging task ahead of us. So this is not just recognition of achievement. To me, I read that to mean: "Keep doing what you are doing, and more." And that´s the message I get from this Prize today.
GRIEHSEL: What would you say is... If you could single out one issue, what is the most pressing issue that you have to deal with right now or in the nearest future?
ELBARADEI: Well, I think the most single important issue today is to make sure that nuclear weapons will not proliferate beyond the eight, or nine, countries that already have nuclear weapons; and absolutely make sure that none of these nuclear weapons or this nuclear material will fall into the hands of any extremist or terrorist group, because if they got hold of this material, they would use it. That would be the beginning of the end for civilisation as we know it.
GRIEHSEL: You have been described as a person who speaks your mind; and you said the Prize will mean even more responsibility for you. Will you continue to speak your mind on these issues?
ELBARADEI: Absolutely. I mean, I think that... this is to me the best part of the Prize, frankly; it strengthens my resolve to speak without fear, to speak... to use the power, as, you know, I have been having a difficult time when you have to look a government in the face and tell them, "You are not telling us the truth," or "You need to comply with your commitment,"" and working... We are in a very unique position at IAEA, because we sit on judgement of governments, in judging their compliance. And that puts a lot of responsibility on our shoulders. We have to be a hundred percent impartial. But we also have... Our strength lies, in fact, in our integrity and our impartiality. And I think this is a wonderful addition to my resolve to continue to speak my mind, because I know I have no hidden agenda other than to see our world a safer world. And I see that we have lots of challenges facing us in every respect, from interest wars, terrorism, weapons of mass destruction, poverty, infectious diseases, environmental degradation, in all this we can only move forward, if we work in a multilateral setting; and that also is another dimension of this - that is recognises the importance of multilateralism. As the citation says, "broadest international co-operation". We can only win together or lose together, Marika. I think that´s something I have been saying for quite a while and you probably will hear me say more of that, as we go forward.
GRIEHSEL: Yes. One of your statements has been, as you say: "A global approach is the only approach forward for us."
ELBARADEI: Correct.
GRIEHSEL: "And we will continue to send that message across."
ELBARADEI: Absolutely, absolutely. I think... The unity of the human race, I think, is something I want very much to emphasise, that if we are to survive... If we want to survive, we need... Just a second, Marika. Marika, I have Condoleezza Rice on the telephone. Could I call you back in a couple of minutes?
GRIEHSEL: Yes. Or if you could just follow that sentence to the end; then I´ll say goodbye...
ELBARADEI: Okay. If we are going to survive, we need to put the emphasis on what unites us together and not what separates us. It is not the difference in colour or creed or border, or what have you; it´s a fact that you are part of the human race, and the more we are able to understand the affinity we have with it, with each other, the more we can have, achieve, a lasting peace, durable peace, I believe.
GRIEHSEL: Thank you so much.
ELBARADEI: Thank you very much.
GRIEHSEL: And have a very, very nice day.
GRIEHSEL: Thank you. Goodbye.

RESPONSIBILITIES MUST BE ACCEPTED
By DOROTHY THOMPSON, Newspaper Columnist
Delivered at a "Win the Peace" Rally, Carnegie Hall, N. Y., September 12, 1943
Vital Speeches of the Day, Vol. X, pp. 81-83.
WHEN I accepted the invitation of your committee to address this meeting, there were no Anglo-American troops on the European mainland, and there was, instead, a great deal of discussion as to whether a real Second Front, which might engage a large part of the main forces of Hitlerite Germany would be opened this fall or next spring. Even Mr. Churchill's Quebec speech, delivered less than a fortnight ago, left this question open.
But now it is settled. As we speak and listen tonight our troops are battling their way into the heart of Europe. The type of engagement in which we are now embroiled inevitably enlarges itself. It is clear that the Germans intend to defend the major portion of Italy, including all the industrial sections, and to hold the northern part of it as though it were German soil.
It is the nature of such a battle that the number and strength of our forces will be determined in large measure by the enemy, and by the force that he can bring to bear in the attempt to push us back. We cannot stand on a defensive line in the Italian peninsula, but must reinforce to the extent that it is necessary to reinforce. It is therefore entirely possible, and indeed, probable, that we shall soon come to grips with the bulk of the German army that is outside Russia.
If the words "climax of the war" have any meaning, that is the climax of the war�when the German armies are engaged simultaneously with the armies of Russia and the armies of the Anglo-American powers.
In a moment like this, all our hearts and all our minds are concentrated with fanatical intensity upon the war itself, and upon the progress of our arms, upon which all else depends. Our prayers and our hopes go out to our men and their officers in what is certain to be a bitter and terrible struggle. I am sure there is not one in this audience here tonight, who, in the face of the battle for Europe now on, does not reproach himself, that he has left undone many things he should have done. We read with gravest concern the news from California of the shortage of workers in the aircraft factories. What yesterday seemed to some a civilian "sacrifice", must today, in the light of the fearful test being undergone by young Americans and Britons in Italy, appear as minor inconveniences, and our consciences cry out that these are not greater rather than smaller.
For it is not written in the stars that the fortunes of war always favor the right side. We know that our Nazi enemies will fight with reckless fury, and we know that in reckless fury they are formidable opponents.
The Battle for Europe gives a peculiar poignancy and urgency to the Third War Loan. It is a test, among other things, of the seriousness with which Americans regard this stage of the war. It is also a test of the economic strength of this nation. Unless we oversubscribe this loan, in a very few days, we had better stop talking about any peace that we might impose on the world. Our enemies are watching the course of this war loan as well as the course of our landings in Europe. So are our troops, many of whom are dying as we sit in this hall. For both it is a test of our resolution. And in all other countries it will stand out as proof, both of our economic power during the war and of the prospects after the war. Is America able to build a new world? And will American pay for that opportunity?
This is no new question, nor has the question arisen only during this war. For nearly a generation now the world has asked "What is America up to? What is America prepared to do?"
The question is becoming increasingly urgent as our power grows. For the increasing strength of this country is an increasing question mark. For what purpose is this strength eventually to be used? Is it to be used with the world, or outside the world, or against the world?
It was common opinion, until a generation ago, that we stood outside the world. This was a supreme fallacy. The United States of America has always been on the same planet; it has always faced the same oceans which it shares with millions of other peoples; and over it has always been the common air of mankind.
We have always been involved in the power structure of the world. The most important pillar of that structure in the last century was the naval power of the British fleet. Our very isolationism was made possible by this fact. Our major policies were made with the agreement of the British, and that is why they succeeded so easily. The Monroe Doctrine assuring the political independence of all the Americas was ratified by the British government, and guaranteed by the British fleet. The only power in the last century that had the capacity to injure us, namely Britain, agreed not to. To that fact, the greatest fact of the century, admitted as such by the man whom Mr. Churchill, the other day, called the only great German in the last hundred years, namely Bismarck, we owe the defortification of the Canadian frontier, the sovereignty of all the American states, and the undisturbed development of our domestic life, which, in a brief five generations, has grown from a primitive frontier community of a few millions, to a vast continental nation and economy, and the world's greatest industrial power.
Few stop to remember that until the last war, and therefore within the lifetime of most people in this room, the United States was a debtor nation, financially dependent in large part upon Europe. We are justly proud to have created our great American economy with our own hands and brains, but we must admit that we did not create it without great help from abroad. While we were building it the world was policed by other nations, notably by the British, and it was in the freedom and security thus assured us that we became the great sovereign power that we are.
Even were the protection of the British adequate, we are now grown up. We have come of age. And it is not fitting that such a condition of affairs should go on. But in any case, the British are no longer strong enough alone to hold the world on keel. They were not strong enough in 1914. They were not strong enough to prevent this war. They were not strong enough to see it through alone. And they will not be strong enough to maintain the peace of the world during the next generation and century.
Who, then is strong enough? For somewhere there must be sufficient strength to maintain peace. For, actually, it takes more strength to maintain peace than it does to win a war. That may seem to be a paradoxical statement, butif you will think you will see that it is true. A war is like a convulsive cramp. Nations in danger of their lives discover capacities in themselves that they did not know they had. Such nations, expending their forces all at once, in a short period, regardless of the weakening of their whole organism, often wrench victory out of defeat, especially if their enemies are so kind as to provide them with unexpected allies. Among the many whom we must thank for our present prospect of victory is certainly Adolph Hitler. For had he been a really great military leader, and had he not repeated the perennial mistake of German militarists of engaging the whole world at once, we might be fighting today on the beaches of Long Island and California.
The goddess who governs the fortunes of war is whimsical. The powers who preside over peace are logical. Since man has lived on this earth there have been wars. Wars have only been prevented for long periods, or isolated into local disturbances, when there have been powers interested in maintaining the peace and strong enough to maintain it under all circumstances. The reason why it takes more strength to maintain peace than to make war is that this j strength must be so obviously formidable, so constant and j unremitting, that ail know that it would be suicide to test it. There is an example of this in our own times. Had there been previous to this war, an Anglo-American-Russian alliance for mutual aid against all aggression, this war would not have started. It was necessary for the Axis j powers, first to dissolve the existing Franco-British-Russian alliance, which they did at Munich, and second, to bet on the isolationism of America, before even the German and Japanese militarists would move a gun. And the British and French. dissolved the alliance with Russia chiefly because the prejudices of their leaders led them vastly to underestimate Russian power. They could not count on America. They were, therefore afraid, and fear makes people stupid.
World wars start by political speculations. In the first world war, the Germans speculated�as we know from all the diplomatic documents�that the British would not participate. Bethman-Hollweg nearly had a nervous breakdown when he heard, on August 4th, 1914, that Britain had declared war.
The British wished this time not to repeat this misunderstanding, and made it clear beyond measure that if Poland were attacked they would be in. But this time the British power was not strong enough to frighten the Germans. This time Hitler speculated on holding Russia aloof until he could defeat the British, which he believed and correctly, to be entirely possible. Then he thought he could exchange the British war against the Russian war. He did not underrate the strength of the British, he underrated the political capacities of the British, and the anti-Russian prejudices of its ruling class. He overrated anti-British feeling in America, and his own propaganda here. He did not underrate American productive strength. But he believed that our military leaders were idiots, our people divided, and that he could divert what strength we might muster to the Far East.
So this war, like the last one, was born out of the speculations of scheming, aggressive, national leaders. And until there is no more speculation possible, we shall go on having wars, of ever-increasing intensity, destruction, and fury. We cannot hope for continuing peace merely by eliminating this or that aggressor nation. No man on earth is clairvoyant enough to tell who, in some inscrutable future, and under what circumstances and what leadership may become an aggressor. The point is that we must solidify the power structure of the earth for the maintenance of peace. And that is impossible for America to do alone. We are also not strong enough alone. And it is impossible for any other powers or all other powers, to accomplish without the participation of America.
Unwillingness to accept responsibilities equal to one's power is the historical sin for which no nation is ever forgiven. It is a luxury which only small nations can afford, who, by their nature have to live under other peoples' wings. America is such a factor that merely by doing nothing, she can unleash a whirlwind.
What are the obstacles to our accepting permanently our share of responsibility? They lie in historical hangovers from a previous time, not very long ago, when we were not a factor of compelling importance to the rest of mankind. Our honest isolationists have been living in the nineteenth century and think of America as though it were a somewhat larger Sweden. They allow themselves the luxury of being swayed by their antipathies or sympathies. Some are anti-British and don't want to be tied to the tail of the British lion. If the British lion were as strong, relatively, as he was 100 years ago, he wouldn't be offering us his paw. Others are anti-Russian and don't want to dance with the Russian bear. They don't see that the animal kingdom of the human race is full of lions, bears, eagles, hyenas, and other beasts of prey, and that we are either going to have to make it a jungle or a zoo.
There are also some who say that we must not organize for peace with anybody unless, from the outset we can include all. They are the Utopians who apparently are willing to allow wars to go on indefinitely until the second coming of Christ. Actually Christianity is a universal religion, but its Founders began by creating a small community and enlarging it. It looks as though we still have several thousand years to go before the world is Christianized. But for international peace purposes our chances are much brighter. For, if we are willing, we can certainly start with the British world association of nations and ourselves. That is a strength so formidable that if we start with it, and with complete good faith and good will, we can get the Russians, and the Chinese, too. Of course we can't get Russia if we think of her as a future menace and try to build up buffer states between Russia and ourselves, as some people appear to want to do. Then, I warn this audience, that we may one day find most of Europe operating on a new. Axis against the Anglo-American powers. An axis Moscow - Berlin - Paris - Chung-King! An Anglo-American association created to snub Russia and patronize China, and France can lead to just that. It must be the task of the American, and British peoples to see that that does not become the object of our diplomacy. It would be as dangerous as to approach Russia with the object of snubbing Britain.
Others say, Accepted: But we must be the leader in any association. In the moment we say that we dynamite the whole building. No great power, or, for that matter small power, will put itself into subjection. Equality of status is essential to any continuing collaboration. We know that in the history of our own states. If Vermont should be subjected to New York because New York is the stronger state there would be no United States of America. An association of states or nations cannot subject themselves, one to the other, but only to commonly held principles and programs, under which each fulfills its appropriate function.
But�we must create new principles and new programs, for they do not yet exist. Ladies and gentlemen, we are out in this war to punish aggressors. That is a war aim on which every one of us is in agreement. We accept today without question that the instigation of an aggressive waris a crime against God and mankind. But may I point out to you that it is not a crime in any existing law. On the contrary, the right to declare and wage war for any purpose whatsoever that the nation through its accepted leadership may deem desirable, is universally regarded as a sovereign national right. There have been many pious gestures to outlaw aggressive war�but the gestures have never been implemented; there is no law of nations against it. and, there is no force to compel obedience to such a law. As far as I know only one state in the world forbids wars of aggression under its constitution. That state is Switzerland. And Switzerland has only given up this sovereign right in exchange for the guarantee, of all major powers.
The example of Switzerland, however, is suggestive. If the great powers all guarantee each other, small powers will want and must receive the same guarantees.
Please understand that I am not advocating basing the future peace of the world on a Grand Alliance. I am too old a student of history to believe in any such thing. I believe that the great powers engaged as allies in this war�Britain, Russia, America, and China�must lay the foundations for a new League of Nations. They must open this League to anyone willing to join, and to assume responsibilities commensurate with their capacity and power. They must back this League, to start with, by force�namely with the force of their own armies, which they must make instruments for its laws. Eventually, perhaps, they may have a common army, an international police force. As far as I am concerned, I would be willing to have it tomorrow. But let us begin where we can begin, and not wait for the twenty-first century. Let us, who are fighting this war together, create permanent instruments for ourselves; let us create our own laws, put ourselves under them, and protect each other against those who will not accept the law. For if it is clear that we never again will fight each other, no one else is likely to fight us.
And we must go further. Let us, as allies, tomorrow for peace, begin the creation of a more just and democratic society, a true world for the people, which, in the long run is our only protection against future wars. It will not have escaped your attention, that although there are no laws, provided with adequate instruments of arbitration and compulsion, against aggressive wars, the conscience of the peoples of the world is long since ripe for such laws. It has been said that the Germans and Japanese are by nature war-loving. But it is a fact of the greatest historical importance that no German or Japanese leadership felt free to embark upon a war for Lebensraum until it had first established a complete despotism over its own people. If we want to end wars we must break the war-making castes in this world. We know who they are, and why not call a spade a spade? Let us not, for instance, and in the long run, bet on the Badoglios of this world. Let us not think that if we cut off the heads of a few demagogues we can cooperate with the much shrewder heads who first conspired to put the demagogues into power. Hitler had great influence, but no power, until the East Elbian Junkers and the great Cartel-leading industrialists of the German Nationalist Party conferred it upon him from the hand of Hindenburg. There were many mixed motives in the minds of the men who conferred that power. Not all by any means anticipated aggressive war against the outside world. But all wished to wage aggressive measures against the masses of their own people, and win freedom of action from public opinion at home.
So this war teaches us that not only isolationism among states is no longer possible, if we are to insure ourselves against returning disaster. It is also a concern of ours whether popular government, free speech, minority rights, and economies designed to serve the people and not a ruling caste are maintained or overthrown in any major power. For wherever the people are subjected, war becomes much more likely. The ultimate peace of the world rests upon the political and economic liberation of the people of the world. But the ability to free them rests upon the power to maintain peace. And the power to maintain peace Tests upon the continued mutual protection and collaboration of those great powers developed enough to see the vision, and responsible and realistic enough to accept its service and its duties.

BLACKHAWKS AGREE TO TERMS WITH KLINKHAMMER AND RICHARDS
By: Nate Haeni Rockford, Ill. - The Chicago Blackhawks have agreed to terms with forward Rob Klinkhammer on a one-year contract, and goaltender Alec Richards on a two-year contract. Klinkhammer, 24, ranks third on the IceHogs all-time games played list with 224 contests. The Lethbridge, Alberta native notched career-highs in goals (17) and points (46), to go along with his team-best +14 plus/minus rating during 76 games in 2010-11.
The winger also made his National Hockey League debut on Dec. 8, 2010 as the Blackhawks knocked off the Dallas Stars 5-3. Klinkhammer logged 11:36 of ice time and registered one shot with a +1 plus/minus rating.
Over parts of four American Hockey League seasons he has registered 126 points (54g-72a) in 290 regular-season tilts with the Norfolk Admirals (2007-08) and Rockford (2008-11) and three points (1g-2a) in eight postseason contests with the IceHogs.
Richards set IceHogs rookie goaltending records for games (44), wins (17), lowest GAA (2.89), save percentage (.899) and shutouts (2) in 2010-11. The Robbinsdale, Minnesota native posted a 17-21-2 mark between the pipes for the IceHogs. The 23 year-old netminder spent the majority of the 2009-10 season with the Toledo Walleye, recording a 17-12-5 record with a .897 save percentage and 3.35 goals against average. Before turning pro, Richards compiled 39 wins and a 2.68 goals against average to rank second all-time at Yale University.

Principles for the formulation of policy for the Electricity System
reliable studies
system security
total system analysis
The Electricity System is defined as the combination of the generation and transmission facilities.
This website sets out principles that should underpin the development of policy for the GB Electricity System. It seeks to make statements that are based on logic and fact, avoiding opinions, as far as is practical.
The fundamental principle is that policy decisions should be based on reliable studies that seek to achieve outcomes which reduce the latent uncertainties inherent in the System to a level that is appropriate to the context. These studies need to take embrace all the requirements for the Electicity System. The fundamental objective is that policy decsions will be based of balanced judgements that take account of all requirements.
Cost, Security of Supply and emissions reduction should be assessed as part of a Total System Analysis.
The System should have an appropriate proportion of each type of electricity generation but not more than is appropriate. The reliable studies would provide information that would be used in making decisions about such proportionality.
This website does not describe all the issues that justify the need for reliable studies. There is however a focus on issues relating to generation of electricity from wind. This is because (a) wind energy is the main renewable source being developed for electricity generation and (b) the degree of intermittency of wind power is such that use of a system approach in planning for it is of speciall importance.
The need for appropriate government action based on the principles set out in this document is manifest.

Visitors looking for traditional local cuisine in the Kosovo capital Pristina may find it useful to arrive armed with a map and/or guidebook. Kosovans are very proud of their hard won independence and the national flag hangs proudly across the country (apart from in the Serb held enclaves such as Mitrovica) but this national pride does not really extend to promoting Kosovan dishes.There are, in my opinion, a couple of possible explanations for this. One is that there is a large NGO contingent in Kosovo, especially Americans, and enterprising locals have taken advantage of this lucrative market by opening swish international style restaurants, rather than showcasing their own cuisine.The other is that there is no ‘old town’ where, typically, you would in most major cities, find the majority of traditional restaurants. When housed in old buildings, these restaurants take on a much more authentic feel and tourists tend to be drawn to them. Kosovo still gets relatively few tourists so there is not a huge market for such eateries and those foreign workers who spend more than a week or two in the country tend to go once, then seek the comfort of the food from their home countries.Most foreign visitors to Pristina end up at some point at Liburnia; they do this usually by recommendation and not by chance because without a map its not very easy to find and all but the most inquistive explorer would have no idea it’s there at all. Armed with a map finding the restaurant is simple and you’ll be glad you made the effort. There’s a drawback, though; there’s no tourist information office in Pristina so you’ll need to print off a map before you get there, or invest in a Bradt guidebook (the only one that currently exists). Alternatively you could ask your hotel receptionist to give you directions.There are two Liburnia’s on this street and you’re looking for the one with the heavy gate. Go through the gate and into the courtyard. We visited in September when it the darkness was coming in quite early so we sat inside but I can imagine that this would be a lovely shady place to sit in summer when it can get very hot on Pristina. As is usual in this part of the world, the restaurant is made up of several dining rooms, not one vast space. This building is quite old but the interior has been made to look even older, done up to look like an old Ottoman inn. You might argue that Liburnia is more ‘shabby’ than ‘shabby chic’ but it does have a certain charm.As it was a quiet evening only one dining room was in use and we found ourselves a table there: it wasn’t difficult as only one other was taken. The menu was presented in one of those wood and leather folio things that are meant to look olde worlde but are really a bit cheesy and tired looking. There were English translations which gave a vague idea of what to expect. In Kosovo traditional food means Albanian and that differs very little from the typical meaty dishes common in all of the Balkan countries, most commonly cevapcici or pljeskavica (little sausages and a flat round patty respectively, made from spicy minced meat). These dishes and others similar were to be found on the menu but there was also a section listing Kosovar Albanian specialities and we chose from these. There are a few meat-free dishes but on the whole the menu is meat dominated.I picked a dish that turned out to be similar to a ‘toad in the hole’; instead of sausages, though, there were sizeable slabs of lamb sticking out of the batter which was wonderfully light and fluffy. This was a tasty dish but it was far too much for one person and without a sauce or vegetables it became quite heavy going. Himself had ordered what was described as a 'tave' (an Albanian stew) but what arrived was more like a deconstructed moussaka with tender bite size pieces of lamb in a flavoursome sauce at one end of the earthenware dish, and tomatoes, potatoes and peppers at the other. The main thing was that it tasted very good; the sauce was rich but not too heavy and the vegetables were cooked until very soft, not something I would usually do when cooking vegetables myself but in this dish the texture was lovely. It was very much 'comfort food' and more suited to a winter's evening than the dying days of summer; if we ever find ourselves in Kosov over the winter, I'll know exactly what to order. Two lepinja (fluffy round breads) were brought free of charge and while bread was a suitable accompaniment for the stew it didn't really go with my dish. They were good lepinja, though and much enjoyed. A couple of glasses of red wine for me and a couple of bottles of the local beer, Peja, didn't add too much to the bill and the overall total was somewhere in the region of €22, not bad for a capital city.The service was friendly if a little slow at times but we weren't in a hurry so it didn't matter too much. I know that business people do entertain clients or potential clients here and wonder how you might fare if you wanted a quick lunch. On our way out the waiter asked if we wanted to see the private dining room. This room is a bit more attractive than the other rooms and we were told that it's often used for entertaining important government visitors. People tell me there are better places to try traditional food in Pristina; this, however, is the most central and its lovely courtyard does attract diners in the summer. The food is not spectacular but the combination of tasty dishes and pleasant surroundings mean that Liburnia is a safe choice. Read Less

Prizren - The Jewel of Kosovo Pt II
Story/Tip Quote: We walked round to the "Kaderi the Kurila Tekke" (a 'tekke' being the Albanian word for the place where members of the Sufi order meet) but really wished we'd visited on a Friday afternoon as this is the only day where there is a public 'ziker' - better known to most people as the ceremony of the 'whirling dervishes', the name given to the devotional dance performed by Sufis (visitors to Istanbul may have attended a ziker).

We walked round to the "Kaderi the Kurila Tekke" (a 'tekke' being the Albanian word for the place where members of the Sufi order meet) but really wished we'd visited on a Friday afternoon as this is the only day where there is a public 'ziker' - better known to most people as the ceremony of the 'whirling dervishes', the name given to the devotional dance performed by Sufis (visitors to Istanbul may have attended a ziker). There are three tekkes in Prizren and like the others, this one has a small exhibition in which the traditional robes and ceremonial weapons are displayed. Passing through an old residential district, we started to make our way to the "kale" or fortress, just a ruin these days but worth the hike (the path climbs a steep 500metres) as you will be rewarded with tremendous views over the town in one direction and over the Pashtrik mountain, and beyond it Albania, in the other. Sadly on the way up to the ruins you have to pass a number of ruined houses that formerly belonged to Serbs who were driven out of the city in 1999 when Albanians returned after the 1998/9 war; also on the way up, a handsome Orthodox church which looked to be in the process of restoration, inaccessible due to some serious metal fencing and many hefty padlocks. On a hot September day we plodded up the stone steps, pausing now and then to watch tiny lizards basking in the sun, and to take in the constantly changing view. At the top we were grateful for a tap which had been installed for the workmen who were busying bolstering the crumbling fortifications. Without the advantage of a local historian a hike to the summit is really just about the views. There are plenty of hidden corners to explore but I would advise caution as many of them have been utilised as public conveniences, perhaps by walkers, perhaps by courting couples. It's though that there has been a fortress of in some form on this location since the 6th century. The heyday of the fortress was the Ottoman period when a whole town existed within its walls and military used the site as recently as 1912; sadly, today there is only rubble and a few minor stone walls. It's perfectly possible to get a flavour of Prizren in a day, or even a half day if you don't stop at any museums, but there are a number of interesting sites outside of the city that I would aim to see if I visited again (fairly likely when I go to Macedonia as the Macedonian capital, Skopje is just an hour away). Cafe culture is an important part of Prizren life so you should leave enough time to sample the delights of at least a couple. While its possible to enjoy a beer, and many of the cafes that line the riverbank become very lively after dark, you may feel self conscious if you do because almost everyone else is drinking coffee; the staff won't bat an eye if you order a Peja (the main beer of Kosovo) but you'll likely notice you're the only one drinking beer (contrast that with neighbouring Serbia where a beer is de rigueur at any time of the day or night). If you do decide to spend longer in Prizren (and after any time in soulless Prishtina I would expect that many backpackers at least would find Prizren a lazy, laidback delight) there is a limited range of accommodation available in the centre but more options if you are prepared to stay slightly out of town where there are many brand new hotels where interior designers have excelled themselves in putting together the most lavish displays of kitsch. There are plenty of places in Prizren to eat out but the majority serve local cuisine, unlike those in Prishtina which offer a wider range of international cuisines. Vegetarians will not starve but will find their options more limited as this is meat country and the Albanian 'qebaptore' (literally a place serving kebabs) are ubiquitous. In summer fish eaters should head to "Mullini i Pintollit", a reconstructed watermill in the quaint Marash district where they serve excellent trout. If you're only staying a short time in Prizren you should make a point of sampling one of the local sweet delicacies. You may well be familiar with baklava which is also found in Turkey and other Middle Eastern countries, but there are other local sweets such as 'ekler' (I'm guessing the name is derived from 'eclair') which are stuffed with rich vanilla cream, and 'revani' which is a delicious moist cake made using sugar water. The "Royal Arabian" which overlooks the river is my pick of the pastry shops. If you like Ottoman towns (and I love them!) and happen to be in Kosovo, then you must make time to see Prizren. It would be a terrible shame to visit Kosovo and only see Prishtina, as is the case for many business people (and for those people I would advise extending your stay in order to see somewhere considerably more "Kosovan" and scenic). There may not be a heck of a lot in terms of "attractions" but the pace of life and the charming buildings make Prizren a welcome change from Prishtina. One of my biggest thrills was to see elderly men wearing the "plis", a traditional hat - it's made only of white felt and is a slightly conical (bit with a rounded peak) brimless hat - that you'll only see being worn in Albania and Kosovo. If you ask someone who speaks English they'll direct you to one of a couple of small workshops where these hats are still handmade today. The plis used to be known as the "liberty hat" because those Albanians who wore it refused to be subjugated in slavery and seeing people wearing them still today is a reminder of the struggle for Kosovan independence. Prishtina may be the gleaming international face of Kosovo but to see what the country is really like you do need to see somewhere like Prizren. Granted it's not the easiest place to get to but a trip to Prizren is essential for anyone spending time in this part of the Balkans. Read Less
Prizren - The Jewel of Kosovo Pt I
Story/Tip Quote: Until I came to do some research for my trip to Kosovo in September 2010, Prizren was just a name to me. I vaguely recalled it being in the news when the country was engaged in its difficult struggle for independence from Serbia, but other than that I knew nothing. Any tourist literature, or any person who has ever been to Kosovo, will tell recommend a visit to Prizren. It's in the south of the country about an hour and a half to two hours bus trip from Prishtina, the capital, depending on the level of traffic which can be very heavy at times, and hardly helped by the poor roads. Alternatively, if you happen to be in northern Macedonia, Prizren would make an interesting and easy day trip, and, i...Read More
Until I came to do some research for my trip to Kosovo in September 2010, Prizren was just a name to me. I vaguely recalled it being in the news when the country was engaged in its difficult struggle for independence from Serbia, but other than that I knew nothing. Any tourist literature, or any person who has ever been to Kosovo, will tell recommend a visit to Prizren. It's in the south of the country about an hour and a half to two hours bus trip from Prishtina, the capital, depending on the level of traffic which can be very heavy at times, and hardly helped by the poor roads. Alternatively, if you happen to be in northern Macedonia, Prizren would make an interesting and easy day trip, and, if truth be told, is a more appealing prospect as an introduction to Kosovo than Prishtina. There are a couple of reasons that visitors head for Prizren in particular. One is that it has more to offer tourists in terms of a recognisable Old Town; much of Pristhina's Ottoman past has been obliterated, partly under Tito's socialist regime when it was wanted to present the city as modern metropolis, not one with ties to an Ottoman past, and partly due to damage incurred as Kosovo won her independence from Serbia. That's not to say that Prizren is some stunning little jewel in Kosovo's crown; indeed, many important buildings in the city are in poor condition and while a lot of EU money is being used to restore them, there is still much to be done. In the meantime, though, there's enough there to comfortably occupy day trippers. Another reason that Prizren attracts visitors is that it is unofficially Kosovo's cultural capital, playing host every summer to a handful of festivals. As most tourists come to Kosovo in summer, there's a fair chance you'll catch one of them. There are regular buses from Prishtina's main bus station to Prizren with the last buses returning to Prizren around 7.00pm. The first half of the route is a decent dual carriageway lined with newly built car showrooms, motels, furniture stores, fast food joints, petrol stations and building supplies centres. There might be a lot of vehicles on the road but you have to wonder whether there's a need for so many motel rooms. The roads then become less good and climbs and climbs until the whole of southern Kosovo is stretched out before you. Arriving in Prizren is confirmation that you are heading south. In many respects I found it very like a Turkish town (in fact Turkish is a third official language after Albanian and Serbian), although there are the distinctive domes of the shells of Orthodox churches standing alongside the minarets of the mosques. Except for a clutch of international stores selling designer sunglasses and leisurewear few can probably afford, most retail business is carried out in the street, with shopkeepers displaying most of their wares on the pavement in front of their shop rather than inside. In this part In this part of the world people are much more likely to meet outside the home rather than have friends round for a beer or a coffee so there are lots of cafes, most of them with outdoor seating. Prizren is the main centre for a fair sized region so there are lots of school children, students, workers and shoppers around all day long. There aren't enough schools to meet demand so the day is divided into three shifts, which explains why there are usually children of school age around in town when you would expect them to be in class. Few people have internet access so there are always business people meeting to look at documents, or workers taking documents to be copied or just delivered to offices around the city. Life is centred around the Shadervan district where there are several cafes and restaurants clustered around the square. Lots of people were drinking from an old water fountain in the centre of the square and it's said that if you drink from the fountain you'll come back to Prizren: as I liked Prizren a whole lot more than Prishtina, I had a sip too. You can take a horse and cart ride around the town starting here; all day long Kadri Palla and his horse Rubin wait in the hope of finding some passengers to take on a tour of Prizren in their antique carriage. At Euro5 for thirty minutes it won't break the bank but you'll miss a lot of the little nooks and crannies of Prizren that can only be found by exploring on foot. If you've come by bus then the Shadervan district is on the right hand side of the modest Prizren Bistrica river which divides the town. Several foot and road bridges link the two sides, most notably "the Old Stone Bridge" which dates from the seventeenth century. If you keep following the river you'll arrive in Shadervan in no time at all but you should really veer off into the side streets as they do contain a number of old Ottoman houses - some restored, some being restored and some in a severe state of dilapidation - which are worth seeing. Don't worry if you have a feeling you may be lost; the Sinan Pasha mosque dominates the Prizren skyline and is always a useful landmark to aim for to get your bearings again. There are in fact twenty-six mosques in Prizren and a good number date from the Ottoman period; many of them are currently under restoration and the Turkish government have contributed a great deal of money towards the cost of these projects. You can go into any of the mosques but they tend to be locked up after prayers so you need to go just as prayers are ending and you should find that you can go in. The Gazi Mehmet Pasha's Mosque is especially handsome and sits in wonderful gardens which are a good place to have a rest from pounding Prizren's pavements. This mosque is a stone's throw from the "League of Prizren Museum" which is a must-see when visiting the city as it is a vital part of Kosovo's history. The original buildings were moved twice before the complex as you see it today became settled; in the 1960s, like so many important old buildings in Kosovo, the buildings were moved to make the space for a new road, and in the 1990s Serbian forces all but demolished the monuments. In the late nineteenth century a group of intellectuals from Kosovo and Macedonia started to meet to plan the struggle against the Ottoman empire; their resistance was intended to be not only political and military but also cultural and their aim was to appeal to the Berlin Congress to attain autonomy for an Albanian state. Almost none of the captions in the museum were in English but we were still able to appreciate a collection of paintings of patriots in national dress as well as a comprehensive exhibition of old photographs of Prizren and other towns in Kosovo.

Pristina - an overview (part 2)
Story/Tip Quote: The heart of the city is Mother Theresa Boulevard, a pedestrianised street lined with shops (mostly international stores that only NGO workers can afford to shop in) and cafes. The area comes alive from late afternoon as school children finish for the day, followed by university students and then office workers. Gradually portable kiosks and little trestle tables start to appear on the boulevard. There's popcorn, doughnuts, hot nuts and candy floss. Old ladies sell paper cones stuffed with pumpkin seeds; giant open chillers filled with ice creams of every colour are dragged out of little yards and hauled onto the boulevard.

The heart of the city is Mother Theresa Boulevard, a pedestrianised street lined with shops (mostly international stores that only NGO workers can afford to shop in) and cafes. The area comes alive from late afternoon as school children finish for the day, followed by university students and then office workers. Gradually portable kiosks and little trestle tables start to appear on the boulevard. There's popcorn, doughnuts, hot nuts and candy floss. Old ladies sell paper cones stuffed with pumpkin seeds; giant open chillers filled with ice creams of every colour are dragged out of little yards and hauled onto the boulevard. Then come the mobile phone sellers; they get lots of people coming to have a look but don't appear to sell much. The phones are probably cheap copies of well known brands or else stolen or second hand. There are cardboard boxes are battery operated barking dogs that turn somersaults, glow in the dark headbands, replica sports strips, cartons of cigarettes. The people sitting in the cafes on the main drag are mostly staff from NGOs, the majority of them American. Americans are loved here; there are huge hoardings at roundabout and road junctions showing posters of American troops engaged in aid work, or else thank you messages celebrating Bill Clinton's efforts to enable Kosovo's independence. In the markets you'll find t-shirts showing the flags of various countries and a thank you message underneath - "Thanks to our wonderful American friends, from Kosovo" and so on; none of them are giving thanks to the UK. The cafes on the side streets are slightly cheaper and you'll meet more Kosovan people there. Although places like these look busy people tend to make their drinks last a long time; people are smartly dressed and don't have much money for luxuries but the evening stroll is an essential part of Pristina life. As you might expect from a capital city, Prishtina boasts a wide range of restaurants covering most international cuisines. Kosovan food tends to be more or less the same as Albanian, which is essentially very meaty and not unlike Turkish food. Guidebooks on Kosovo tend to be aimed mainly at NGO workers and therefore make a big thing about recommending international restaurants; these tend to be scattered all over the city rather than concentrated in any one area and usually require a taxi ride to get to them. However, there are restaurants in the centre which are perfectly fine yet don't get as much attention from the guidebooks. If you're traveling on a budget you'll find plenty of places around the market where you can get cheap meat dishes; the portions are always generous and the food is delicious. Prishtina is not a city that is brimming with tourist attractions. One reason is the destruction of some of the city's most important historic buildings, another is the fact that many of the country's important treasures are in museums in Belgrade and unlikely to be returned any time soon. The area around the market is referred to as the old town but it is barely that. However, after you've had a look around the market, you might want to go and take a look at a handful of old Ottoman style houses that can be found nearby. The city's oldest mosque is currently being restored, and the others are not really of any significance. One of the old houses is home to Emin Gjiku, a small ethnographic museum in which there's a modest exhibition of costumes and jewellery and mock ups of rooms from times gone by. In another Ottoman house there's a museum dedicated to the life and work of former Kosovan leader Ibrahim Rugova, architect of Kosovo's independence; this museum is also pretty small and really needs the help of a local to make sense of it. It was OK but if I ever go back to Prishtina, I'll find a Kosovan guide to help me out. The nature of Prishtina's geography means that there are a number of good view points, the most interesting of which is Martyrs' Hill in the Velania district. There's a memorial to Ibrahim Rugova on the top of the hill; Rugova was a pacifist and there was intense animosity between him and the Kosovo Liberation Army. Even when he died in 2006, the hostility of the KLO did not abate and there was fierce discussion among Kosovans over where Rugova should be buried. Eventually the issue was resolved and you can now visit this white marble memorial on a spot that also gives tremendous views of the somewhat depressing - but nonetheless remarkable - urban sprawl. Although you won't very often hear the call to prayer or see many ladies wearing headscarves, there's a strong feeling in Kosovo that you're in a Muslim country. Although there are plenty of places to get a beer (or something stronger) you don't see many people drinking alcohol; coffee is the most popular drink but you'll also notice a lot of older men drinking glasses of tea, exactly as they do in Turkey or other Islamic countries. Appearance is very important and young women especially like to dress to impress. The poor condition of the pavements does not deter young women from wearing impossibly high heels; trousers are tight and tops skimpy. The concept of modesty in dress as seen in more easterly Muslim countries does not apply here. One place that does feel quite eastern is the main market and the shopping area that surrounds it. Certain types of shop cluster together so there'll be a row of ten shops selling metal railing for balconies and staircases, then ten stores selling plumbing goods, then half a dozen selling handmade wooden items. A lot of business is conducted on the street with shop owners bringing out stools and chatting to their neighbours as they wait for the next customer. The market is partly open, partly covered; the covered section is a maze of alleyways, once again arranged pretty much according to the items on sale. When we visited Kosovo it was pepper time and customers were buying big sackfuls of peppers to take home to pickle, keep in oil or to use in making ajvar, a spicy relish served with meat dishes in this part of the world. Most food is grown locally and on the market edges you'll see country people selling whatever they have a surplus of, sometimes this can be just a few bottles of milk from their own cows or goats, or even just a plastic bag full of apples. You tend to see mountains of the same stuff. People eat very much in harmony with the seasons and very little imported produce is available; we spent twenty minutes looking for bananas to take with us on our long bus journey to Belgrade and we found only one small crate of bananas on the whole market. I was glad to have visited Prishtina but it is not the sort of place I'd recommend for the casual tourist, someone looking for a city break destination. It's dusty, noisy and still a long way from recovering from the ordeal of its recent past. It has a feeling of a city in flux; UN and EU vehicles still fill the city streets, there are cranes looking over every part of the city and just covering short distances on foot can be frustrating and tiring; pavements peter out and you have to walk along side thunderous traffic, there are unpaved areas in the very heart of the city where you have to walk on gravel or jump over pools of drying cement. However, it's a good base from which to explore other parts of Pristina because it has rather more in the way of evening diversions and a better choice of places to eat than other towns which tend to be fairly conservative and repetitive. The aspects that appealed to me most were the glimmers of the city's Ottoman past; as an ardent Islamophile, though I was a little disappointed that this is not as strong as I had expected. It's unusual for me not to find such cities exciting and compelling but Pristina just didn't excite me that much - and it's a long way to go to be disappointed. Read Less

Slowly we are working our way through the countries that formerly made up the Yugoslav federation; not only is Kosovo the last to achieve its independence, it's also the world's youngest state. In September 2010 we had planned to travel through Serbia en route to our place in Slovenia but, looking one day at the atlas, I was struck by how close (I have no spatial awareness or concept of distance) the Kosovan capital Prishtina appeared on the map; our plans were altered accordingly. The first thing you'll notice on arriving in Kosovo is that there appear to be more Albanian flags flying than Kosovan. After first Slovenia, then Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and finally Macedonia left the federation, Serbia and Montenegro remained united; Kosovo was swallowed up within Serbia but with an almost entirely Muslim (and Albanian) population it wasn't long before Kosovo, too, wanted independence. Independence for Kosovo would not come easily and many lives were lost in the fierce fighting that broke out. Today very few Serbs live in Kosovo; most chose to leave, fearing for their lives, while others were literally chased out. The Serbs that stayed, or that have come back, live in enclaves, most notably in the city of Mitrovica (although it is not purely Serbian) and in Gracanica, a few kilometres outside the capital. The rest of Kosovo is almost entirely made up of Albanian Kosovars. The next thing you notice is that there is one heck of a lot of money being spent in Kosovo, and not just in the capital. We arrived by bus from Serbia and noticed the quality of the roads improve tenfold simply by crossing into Kosovo. Most backpackers arrive by bus; there's no train service any longer. Prishtina's international airport connected the country with most major European cities. Easyjet do have a service to Prishtina, but so far only from Geneva (whether this is because of the large numbers of Kosovans living in Switzerland, or the presence of so many international aid workers whose headquarters are in Geneva, I'm not altogether sure). Geographically the city forms a kind of bowl on three sides while the fourth side flattens out to the south a long way, then later drops down as you head towards the city of Prizren. First impressions are not great; although I've visited huge sprawling metropolises like Istanbul and Ankara I have to admit feeling pretty overwhelmed. For a start we had expected to be dropped in Gracanica because we had come from Serbia, so when the driver indicated we should get out at a busy roundabout we did so gladly, knowing that we would not now need to find a taxi driver willing to take us into Albanian territory. The trouble was that we had no idea at all which part of the city we were in and therefore no idea how to get to the area we had earmarked as having a couple of possible hotels. Wherever you look in Kosovo there is building work going on; immense construction cranes loom over the city like overgrown wading birds. Try to walk on the pavement and you'll not get very far before you are diverted onto a pebbly path on the edge of the traffic. The fumes are shocking and you feel grubbing within a few minutes of setting foot out of doors. Recently it was revealed that the high proportion of the new buildings in Kosovo, in particular in Prishtina, are illegal - put up without planning permission - and any that have appeared since the taking of a satellite picture sometime in late summer will have to be taken down. To see Pristina you might think that there was no global economic crisis, or at least not one that included Kosovo; the truth is that international aid has enabled this degree of construction to be maintained. If you are able to its best to walk in the city; this does mean that it can take a while to get around but the constant traffic jams mean that going anywhere by bus or car takes even longer. Buses are quite difficult to use as it's hard to get a definitive answer as to where to catch a particular service or which numbers apply to which routes. Fortunately, if you don't wish to walk, taxis are pretty cheap and one of the only things that tourists might spend their money on that isn't artificially high because of the large number of foreigners in the city. If you are taking a taxi to the main bus station on the outskirts of the centre, ask the driver to drop you outside the gate to avoid paying the drop off charge (in fact, we gave what we saved to the driver as his tip). Another problem is that many streets have had several names and people you speak to may not always use the most recent. The street previously named after Lenin is now named Bill Clinton Boulevard. We found that people we asked for directions tended to direct us by landmark which, in a city with a number of memorable buildings and sights is probably the best way to do it. Breaking away from Serbia was not kind to Kosovo but Prishtina had already lost much of its history decades earlier while Yugoslavia still existed; in the 1960s it was decided by central government that Pristina with its strong resemblance to Ottoman cities was not a fitting example of a modern Yugoslav city and many important architectural treasures were lost. In their place there sprang up countless monstrosities that could never ever hope to match the beauty of what had been bulldozed. I'm a big fan of twentieth century design as seen in many eastern European and Soviet era cities but the few design statements that one might hold up as an example of this movement in Prishtina are now crumbling fast. The Skenderberg Statue is something you'll pass frequently if you stay for more than a day or two; Skenderberg was also known as Gjergi Kastrioti and he is Albania's most celebrated historical hero, uniting the Albanians against the rules of the Sultan in the fifteenth century. The statue has been placed on a horrible plinth that today looks like a decrepit skate park and surrounded by floodlights, most of which don't work. Nearby is the Kosovo Parliament building which is fairly uninspiring, but next to it, attached to the railings are the now faded photographs of missing people, their fate now unlikely ever to be known, driven from their homes by Serb militia in retaliation for the NATO bombing of Serb targets. One once grand square is now a sadly derelict pile of uneven and broken paving stones, its once proud obelisk now looking sad and decrepit. The shell of an unfinished Eastern Orthodox church stands nearby; before the war it was planned that it would be the largest Eastern Orthodox church in Kosovo but now it stands as a chilling testimony to the fact that Serbs are no longer welcome here. Even I found little to like in the bizarre honeycomb like building that is the national library though there is no denying that it's pretty unforgettable; building started in the 1970s and was finished in 1981. For ten years Albanian students were not allowed to use the library and when NATO was bombing the Serbs into submission, the Serb military used the library as a mission control centre, during which time hundreds of thousands of rare books were destroyed.

Hotel | "Hotel Sara - Further Adventures in Pristina Hotel Land" Quote: Same city, another hotel. The hotel right next door in fact. Having spent the previous night in Hotel Begolli, we manage to (we think) check in to Hotel Sara without the manager of the first hotel noticing. There wasn’t anything drastically wrong with Hotel Begolli and Hotel Sara was no cheaper, priced at exactly €50 the same as Begolli, we decided to share our money around (and generate another review).

Same city, another hotel. The hotel right next door in fact. Having spent the previous night in Hotel Begolli, we manage to (we think) check in to Hotel Sara without the manager of the first hotel noticing. There wasn’t anything drastically wrong with Hotel Begolli and Hotel Sara was no cheaper, priced at exactly €50 the same as Begolli, we decided to share our money around (and generate another review). These hotels are situated in what is referred to as the "Old Town" or "Bazaar district" of the Kosovo’s capital city, Prishtina. This is something of a red herring as there is very little of Old Prishtina left, but nonetheless it’s not a bad location; Prishtina is a massive sprawling city but this is about as central as you can get. As Hotel Begolli was almost hidden by scaffolding, it stands to reason that we should get a better first impression of Hotel Sara. From the outside the hotel looks like a modern international standard hotel and peering in through the windows it did look inviting and comfortable. American, Albanian and EU flags hang from the first floor balcony; there’s no British – they’re not so keen on us Brits (not that Brits get any trouble in Kosovo, it’s just that they really love the Americans, who have made it their mission to "look after" poor little Kosovo). There are five stars etched into the name sign on the doors – this is not a five star hotel – as you will learn.The reception area is a little too red but the furniture is all quite new and there is plenty of seating. There is a computer terminal on the reception desk which has internet access (although there is also wi-fi access throughout the hotel). Coffee and tea is available in reception. Once we had returned to Hotel Begolli to collect our passports, we were able to quickly check in to our third floor room. The receptionist was really friendly and spoke very good English. We took the key to our room and went upstairs in the lift. Although all the public areas are well maintained and nicely decorated, once you leave reception the corridors are really narrow and it’s tricky to manoeuvre with a rucksack without executing a bizarre backpacker three point turn. Our room was basic but very clean and well maintained. It was much smaller than our room in Hotel Begolli and it didn’t have a balcony; in fact, when you looked out of the window, you could see that you were almost in the balcony of one of Begolli’s rooms. Had we stayed at this hotel first we would have been quite satisfied with the room but coming from Hotel Begolli we realised we’d been rather spoiled there. Still, the room contained a television with satellite channels and, happily, we did not need to engage any staff assistance to operate it; I rarely watch TV on holiday but I do like to have access to the news if possible. Happily for us, given the heat in Prishtina, the room had excellent air conditioning.The small en suite was, sadly, jacuzzi-less but some more expensive rooms at Sara do have a jacuzzi – bizarrely this is considered a real must in Kosovo. We had hot water whenever we wanted it and the bathroom was pristine. The only issues we had with the bathroom was that it was impossible not to soak the floor while having a shower, and it did get quite steamy in the bathroom when the shower was on. When we got into our room we were pleased to find it had a fridge in it as we always like to keep a bottle of water in case the room is hot in the night. The first thing we did was to take photographs of the room (for reviewing purposes) before we turned it into a tip (I can create an earthquake scene with just the contents of a small weekend bag). When we returned in the evening (not drunk but certainly fairly well oiled), I went to put our bottle of water in the fridge but there was no fridge! Completely forgetting that we had taken the photographs, we questioned whether we might have imagined the fridge - the product of wishful thinking perhaps - but we couldn't be one hundred per cent sure. We planned to ask at reception the next morning (by this time we couldn't be bothered) but we forgot. I was only when we got home and reviewed the pictures that our suspicions were confirmed - there had indeed been a fridge and it had mysteriously disappeared sometime during the day.Breakfast is served in a smart room just off reception and is presented as a buffet with hot and cold items. We had thought that breakfast in Hotel Begolli was a bit on the mean side so it was nice to be able to help ourselves and fuel ourselves for a long day’s travelling. The hot selection included scrambled eggs and sausages, while the cold dishes comprised cereals, sliced meats and cheeses, cucumber and tomato, pate, honey and preserves. The crusty bread was very tasty. We were able to help ourselves to tea and coffee as well as orange juice. When the carton was empty, the lady looking after the breakfast room cheerfully went to get some more, a stark contrast to Hotel Begolli where we were allowed only one drink each.Although the hotel doesn’t have much in the way of additional facilities, the staff will arrange things like a laundry service if you need that. They do tend to get medium stay guests, mainly from NGOs, who do require extra services that someone staying just a night or two would probably not need. When we needed a taxi to the bus station the receptionist called on right away and gave us a shout when it arrived. She also gave us directions on how to get from the bus station back to the city centre for later that day after our trip out. It’s difficult to choose between Hotels Sara and Begolli. Our room at Begolli was more spacious and, in theory better equipped, but there were things that didn’t work, or didn’t work properly. At Sara, everything was in working order. Breakfast is much better at Hotel Sara; there was much more choice and the food, although not cooked to order like next door, was much tastier. If you want one hotel, but find it full, it wouldn’t be such a hardship to move next door. If I was staying more than a couple of days I might prefer the larger rooms at Begolli, but Sara’s breakfast is a big plus in a city where it’s not easy to get a conventional breakfast (of the sort most western European or American visitors would prefer).

Potential visitors to Prishtina should not get excited by the mention of the "Old Town"; Prishtina actually has very little in the way of an old town and what it does have is hard to appreciate because of the sheer volume of traffic and the number of people in the streets. However, there are a couple of attractive mosques (one of which is currently being restored) and one or two well preserved Ottoman houses in the area. This is also the market area, and Prishtina's is as interesting and exciting as any you'll find in this part of Europe. We actually went into Hotel Sara first, where we were told that a double room, including breakfast, would cost €50 a night. This seemed a bit steep so we tried next door at Hotel Begolli. We were not so tempted by this hotel, in spite of its cheery orange facade, because the entire front of the hotel was covered in scaffolding; however, we figured that the work would not continue into the evening so it would be unlikely to disturb us.The price was the same as next door and, in spite of our best attempts to get a discount the manager held firm, telling us that the room was a very good one and even had a jacuzzi; frankly I would rather have paid less and not had a jacuzzi, but even though this was the only room with a jacuzzi, we couldn't have an alternative room for a cheaper price. Our room was on the second floor and the hotel had no lift; fortunately the stairs were wide so easy to negotiate while carrying luggage, not too steep and were tiled rather than carpeted, so safe underfoot too. The room itself was a generous size but, curiously, the corner bath was situated in the main part of the room, behind a half height glass brick partition. This was our jacuzzi, or more correctly a whirlpool bath. The en suite (toilet and wash basin) smelled really bad, but unavoidable in a country like Kosovo and down to the drains rather than to poor cleaning. Actually the room and bathroom were very clean so full marks in that department. The room was very blue. The curtains, bedding and even the sparkly tiles on the floor were all blue. The large cheese plant near the door to the patio was not blue but green; it was a lovely big plant but it was in the way of the door. The balcony was small and there weren't any seats to put on it; even if there were it wouldn't have been that nice with the scaffolding up so maybe it'll be possible to sit out there when the work has been done. One wall of the room was dominated by a vast piece of furniture of the type we feel incomplete for not having in our flat in Slovenia; the wall unit with its grid of shelves and cupboards. This one combined a wardrobe space with shelving and a table section for a big television set which we were unable to operate without assistance. There was a desk/table next to this. Beside our bed there was a lamp of the like I have never before seen, nor would I hope ever to see again. It comprised an intricate wrought iron stand with a glass table top perched on it. Then, two curved pieces of metal came up from the back and supported what looked like a wooden pepper mill, on top of which leaned (at a jaunty angle) a tassled lamp shade. When I switched on the lamp no light came on; an investigation showed that it was not missing electricity as I had at first assumed, but a bulb. However, after some twiddling, I discovered that there was another bulb, in a fitting under the glass table top. Unfortunately with part of the lamp, the telephone and three remote controls on the table, there wasn't much room for the light to escape. All these things were unimportant really; the room was clean and comfortable and the hotel didn't seem very busy so would probably be quiet at night. Most important of all, the room had functioning air conditioning which was vital as the weather was scorching, even in mid September. After an afternoon sightseeing and an evening enjoying Prishtina's excellent café culture, we returned to the hotel hoping to catch a little football on television. We had to enlist the help of the night manager who scratched his head, made a phone call, disappeared for a minute, and returned to fix the television. Success! And football! I decided at this point to try the jacuzzi and set it off to fill. The water was a rather murky rusty brown colour but I let it continue to run and added a modest squirt of something from a large shampoo bottle on the side of the bath which I presumed had been left there for this alternative use. The bath full, I climbed in and pressed the button to start the jets. I have to say that at this point I was pretty unimpressed. Himself came over and said he thought it needed more bubbles so he poured in more of the green pine-smelling stuff from the bottle and we swapped places. It turned out that I hadn't had it switched on "Full"; once it was operating at full pelt it did seem to be much more effective as the rapidly multiplying froth spilling over the side of the bath proved. As there was no bath mat, one of the hotel towels had to be sacrificed to mop up the bubbles as the floor would have been treacherous if wet. Unfortunately, the following morning, once all the froth had disappeared, a horrible residue of brown scum covered the whole of the bottom of the bath tub and I had to spend ten minutes rinsing it before we could have showers. Breakfast was served in the hotel's adjoining restaurant. The manager was in the street and ushered us into the restaurant which is accessed by leaving the front door of the hotel and going into the restaurant from the street. It was only small but it was cosy and nicely decorated. We had been hoping that we might get a Turkish style breakfast in Kosovo but instead we were offered various egg dishes, and combinations of ham and eggs, or a continental breakfast. We were also offered a choice of milky coffee, coffee, tea or juice. Himself asked for juice and coffee and the managed took this to mean just coffee; himself repeated his request, this time asking for "coffee and juice" and this time the manager repeated it back as just juice. Two drinks were not allowed! Himself asked for an omelette which was nicely cooked and quite tasty. It was pretty small, though. My continental breakfast comprised a plate of various packaged spreads and preserves laid out in a very twee way. There was a little foil dish of chicken pate (which looked pretty awful), honey, mixed fruit jam and a foil wrapped wedge of soft cheese. There was also a sliver of feta style cheese and a sliver of butter. Unfortunately there wasn't really sufficient bread for two people to breakfast on and once he had served us the manager disappeared. After breakfast we packed up and went downstairs, leaving the key on the reception desk as the manager was still not around. Seizing our chance we dived into Hotel Sara unseen. A minute later Himself had to go back to collect the passports which were still in the safe at Hotel Begolli. So much for a secret getaway. Don't get me wrong, this is not a bad hotel; For one thing it's clean and it's definitely comfortable. There was plenty of hot water and this part of the city does not have planned power cuts (scheduled outages are still the norm in a few areas of Kosovo). We had a good night's sleep and we were happy that the hotel was secure. However, it is a little pricy for what you get; this is a capital city but it is an expensive one because there are so many workers from NGOs in Prishtina and there are relatively few hotels still. The hotel wasn't very busy so we were surprised not to be able to get a discount, especially when there is another hotel next door. The other issues were fairly small but were ones you would expect attention to be given to; a hotel charging Euro50 a night should have no problems getting a supply of light bulbs. Likewise, allowing guests to have a juice AND a hot drink at breakfast is hardly going to send the accounts plummeting into the red. We didn't hate it, we didn't love it. For €50 I'd personally expect a little more but it seems that in Prishtina, more comes at a much higher price. Read Less

Very good value.
We visited over President's Day weekend in 2010. The room and service were very good, and definitely worth the price. The hot tub is available year round, and we enjoyed the ability to use it even in winter. The hotel is centrally located in South Lake Tahoe with easy access. We would recommend this hotel.

QUOTE (bOnEs @ Mar 28 2010, 07:27 AM) wow, so your playing this, just cause 2, AND god of war III?? ... well, at least your playing this game ... you probably paid $30 for it and it is well worth the price... it's worth $60 to be honest but, this game deserves to be enjoyed by more people... and if the price is already dropping then, more people will check it out...i miss sabotaging everything... and i miss hearing the stereotypical characters spout off lines that even make R* jealous... seriously, the voice acting and the story are pretty good... of course, you probably already know that by now ...No, I haven't rented God of War III yet. I paid $40 for Saboteur and of course $60 for Just Cause 2, which happens to have just arrived at my door. Yeah, I do like the voice acting so far. It is extremely great, and for the little bit I've seen so far, movie-quality. The scene where Jules' mom was told about his death is where I decided that. The music and voice acting was perfectly executed there. So yeah, I'll try to balance this game and Just Cause 2, but I think everyone knows I'll probably be sucked into Just Cause's vortex of awesomeness.

I still haven't got this game, nor Mass Effect 2. Is this worth it? Mass Effect 2 is a given, obviously.

QUOTE (Darth Sexy @ Mar 29 2010, 04:16 AM) I still haven't got this game, nor Mass Effect 2. Is this worth it? Mass Effect 2 is a given, obviously.It's a must - it guarantees at least 60 hours of non stop fun! Brilliant game, me, Stoic and bOnEs couldn't put it down just look at the length of this thread - it's mostly just us three that made it up to this point.
QUOTE (Darth Sexy @ Mar 28 2010, 11:16 PM) I still haven't got this game, nor Mass Effect 2. Is this worth it? Mass Effect 2 is a given, obviously.It's definitely worth getting. You should be able to score a deal on it now.
it retails at $40 new... which isn't a bad price at all... that's what i paid for it when it was on sale at bestbuy months ago...
I bet you if you found it at a used game store, it would be around $20-$30. I never bothered to compare prices. Again, it was just an impulse buy.
well impulse or not, at least it'll be there for you in a few months when your getting sort of bored with just cause 2 ...

i actually read yesterday that the price on amazon is $20 right now... i don't know if that's a permanent price or not but, i would jump on that deal if any of you were interested in playing it... maybe check gamestop too or something... it might be permanent...
This game is mucho fun now that I'm over Just Cause 2. Finally committing to the story. Probably won't do much after the main story since RDR is supposedly out...

I was totally immersed in The Saboteur for about 2 weeks but didn't pick it up again after that (traded it in the end) but that doesn't mean I don't highly recommend it - I do! You can't knock this game until you've played it and it's one of my top games for 2009!
Just had the urge to snipe nazis in watchtowers then realised I'd traded my copy in. Think I'll be picking this up again.
yea, i've been getting the itch to start a new file... since i wiped out all nazi camps, there's nothing to do on my current file but drive around... i need to start all over if i am going to have fun again...

yup, it's one of my 5 platinum trophies ... taking out all of the nazi camps took forever but, it was satisfying in the end...

Did you not reach 100% in this game?
YES I don't play Xbox 360 anymore.Add me on steam BITCHES. Pieface876
QUOTE (Pieface @ Jul 26 2010, 02:10 AM) Did you not reach 100% in this game?*assumes you're speaking to me*No, I didn't. The amount of white dots on the map was overwhelming and I was too excited to play RDR. So I guess in my bored future I can try to 100% this and Just Cause 2, but I think that is highly unlikely.
I thought all the regs in this thread got 100%. You should be ashamed Analkike. Go back and play it. NOW!
marney didn't get 100%... i recall him saying, "fuck that!"... and stoic still needed to knock down the nazi towers too... GLC never got it either... you, me and psy might be the only ones that did...

Speeches and Papers
Policy Responses to the Global Financial Crisis
by Edwin M. Truman, Peterson Institute for International Economics
Remarks presented at the Ninth Annual International Seminar, on "Policy Challenges for the Financial Sector Emerging from the Crisis: Building a Stronger International Financial System," Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, World Bank, and International Monetary Fund
Serious financial crises go through seven distinct phases. First is the precrisis phase in which the authorities should be, and sometimes are, practicing crisis prevention. Too often, the crisis may be brewing, but the authorities are either in ignorance, or in denial, of that fact. Second is the outbreak of the crisis, which in retrospect is linked to a particular event, such as an action by a French financial institution to freeze access to funds it is administering. The action itself is irrelevant except for its use in dating the start of the crisis, which by that time was probably inevitable. Third is the crisis management phase, in which authorities and institutions grapple with an ongoing cascade of events with little time to chart their next move or to ponder the implications of their moves. Anna Gelpern has recently written about the fourth phase, which she calls "crisis containment."1 This is a phase in only the most serious crises like the present one, in which the rulebook is thrown away and the overriding objective is to stop the bleeding. Ultimately, the bleeding does stop and the fifth phase begins, the "mopping up" phase. In the sixth phase of a crisis lessons are, or are not, learned. Seventh and finally, preparations are made to prevent or minimize the virulence of the next crisis. Generally, lessons are only partially learned and incompletely applied.
In any case, we know that financial crises are inevitable. Some say they are a healthy feature of market economies.
At present, we are somewhere between the containment and the mopping-up phases of the crisis of 2007–09. Consequently, it may well be premature to think that now is the time to learn and to apply the lessons of this crisis. However, it is not entirely unreasonable to start that process even if we lack full information and detachment.
Some lessons are common to all the serious financial crises that I have witnessed over more than 30 years. First, serious crises are tamed, in the end, by a multipronged set of responses. Early searches for simple, one-dimensional solutions fail. Success comes only after a comprehensive, multipronged approach is adopted. Second, serious crises require the application of overwhelming force. Half-measures are insufficient to arrest their evolution.
Third, the principal obstacle to applying the first and second lessons is the political and institutional context in which the crisis itself unfolds. The evolution of any crisis is highly path dependent. I will illustrate some of these points in the context of the current global economic and financial crisis. I will first offer a few comments about what is different about this crisis. Next I will look at the policy responses that have been adopted. They can be usefully grouped under three headings: improving the macroeconomic environment, promoting market stability, and advancing structural repair. I will conclude with some cautious evaluation. What Is Different About This Crisis?
Each financial crisis bears a resemblance to other crises and passes through similar phases. However, each crisis has its own unique characteristics. Three features distinguish this crisis.
First, the proximate origins of the crisis were in the United States. Regardless of the amount of blame for the crisis one places on US macroeconomic policies on the one hand, and on financial regulatory policies on the other, the fact is that the United States led the way into the crisis.
Second, if the largest economy in the world, whose currency and institutions are at the core of the global financial system, stops functioning, the fact that the resulting crisis is global should not be surprising. In this crisis, the citizens and authorities of a country can run, but they cannot hide.
Third, it is not unusual for a crisis to begin in the financial sector, spread to the real economy, cycle back to further weaken the financial sector, and thereby further weaken the real economy. Diagnosis of the economic and financial situation, if anything, was more complicated in this crisis. During much of 2008, global growth appeared to be holding up in general, and inflation, particularly in commodity prices, was still rising. Policymakers were slow to learn that they were dealing with two severe crises on a global scale, in the financial system and in the real economy. The statistical evidence about dual crises in the traditional industrial countries on average points toward financial downturns leading downturns in the real economy. Upturns in the real economy lead the financial upturns, except for equity prices, which generally are contemporaneous.2
Policy Responses
I think it is useful to group the policy actions taken in response to the crisis of 2007–09 under three headings: improving the macroeconomic environment, promoting market stability, and advancing structural repair.
Because of the connection between the real economy and the financial sector, it is useful to consider, first, the policies that have been employed to improve the macroeconomic environment during this crisis. Starting in the summer of 2007, the monetary authorities generally acted quickly to adopt measures responding to the demand by financial institutions for increased access to central bank liquidity. Central banks relaxed the terms of access to discount windows and employed a variety of similar mechanisms. Those actions were reasonably well coordinated. Coordination between the major central banks was reinforced in December 2007 with the establishment of Federal Reserve swap facilities that, over the following 10 months, were expanded in size and in participation, though that expansi

Statement of FERPA Practice
The Rights of Students
You are hereHome » Academics » Registrar's Office
The Rights of Students Annually, Immaculata University informs students of The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), which affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. They are: The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the University receives a request for access.
Students should submit to the registrar, dean, head of the academic department, or other appropriate official, written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. The University official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the University official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed.
The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes are inaccurate or misleading. Students should write the University official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the University decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the University will notify the student of the decision, and the vice president of the area concerned will advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.
The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. Exceptions include disclosure to personnel within the institution who are acting in the student’s educational interest; to officials of other institutions in which the student seeks to enroll; to federal agencies; to persons or organizations providing the student with financial aid; to organizations conducting studies for educational agencies or institutions developing, validating, or administering tests, student aid programs or educational improvement programs; to accrediting agencies carrying out their accreditation function; to persons in compliance with a judicial order; to disciplinary records pertaining to alcohol and drugs, sexual assault or physical harm; and to persons in an emergency in order to protect the health or safety of students or other persons.
The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by Immaculata University to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20202-4605.
Directory InformationImmaculata University designates the following categories of student information as public, or directory information. Such information may be disclosed by the institution for any purpose, at its discretion: Currently enrolled students may withhold disclosure of any category of information under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. To withhold disclosure, written notification must be received in the Office of the Registrar. Forms requesting the withholding of directory information are available in the Registrar’s Office and on this website. Category I Name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, date and place of birth, dates of attendance, full- or part-time enrollment status, class
Category II Previous institution(s) attended, major field of study, awards, honors, expected graduation date, degree(s) conferred (including dates)
Category III Participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of athletic team members
Immaculata University assumes that failure on the part of any student to specifically request the withholding of categories of directory information indicates individual approval for disclosure. Immaculata students may be assured that even with their permission, directory information is disclosed only on rare occasions. The policy of Immaculata University allows the disclosure of such information to non-institutional personnel only for serious reasons and at the discretion of the person responsible for the student record involved.

Sparked by a conversation in a parking lot somewhere deep in the Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey in the Summer of 2006, Staring Problem was born. At an age when your peers stop stagediving and start rolling their eyes it's important to keep focus and remember what brought you here in the first place.
This is our collective way of giving back. We come from a varied history of past bands; some that went no where, some that took us around the world. It's important we all play our little part in the collective of hardcore/punk. We as hardcore/punk kids (or as in our case, adults, I guess) are still a threat to "their" status-quo that tries to tell us to grow-up, tuck in our shirts, and fall in line with the rest. It's still, as cliché as it sounds, more than just music.
Kenz plays guitar. The other guy playing the other guitar is Andy. Sean plays bass when he's not painting things or drawing. Swank is the one who's screaming in your ear. C. Willis Billards plays the drums. We are Staring Problem.
Members also play in these Indecision bands:

Conditional cash transfer programmes and their impact on poverty reduction: Lessons from Mexico and El Salvador
The uneven economic development undergone by Latin America throughout the last decades has had an impact on its political and social dynamics. Governments in the region have been looking for strategies to cope with the unstable economy and sharp inflation rates, trying to protect their most vulnerable population from the worst economic shocks. As a
response to the challenging conditions, diverse economic and social policy measures have been implemented, having as a core principle economic efficiency based on a human capital approach. At the forefront of these new strategies, conditional cash transfer programmes (CCTs) have been one of the main resources of Latin American countries to tackle poverty, foster social inclusion and overcome inequality.

Allen SayIllustrator / WriterBorn: 1937Birthplace: Yokohama, JapanBest known as: Illustrator of The Boy of the Three-Year NapAllen Say is the author and illustrator of more than a dozen books for children, including the Caldecott Medal winner Grandfather's Journey (1993) and the Caldecott Honor winner The Boy of the Three-Year Nap (1988). Born in Yokohama, Say spent his childhood in Japan during World War II. When he was 12 his parents divorced and he went to live in Tokyo with his grandmother; there he spent four years as an apprentice to cartoonist Noro Shinpei before moving with his father to California at the age of 16. As a young man he went to a military academy, studied architecture at the University of California at Berkeley, spent two years in the U.S. Army and eventually settled into a career in advertising photography. In the mid-1980s Say's success as the illustrator of Dianne Snyder's The Boy of the Three-Year Nap helped him decide to write and illustrate children's books full-time. Since then he has written and illustrated his own books and occasionally done illustrations for other authors. He is known for his technical skill and varied style, and his books pay tribute to Japanese culture and folk tales as well as his own personal experiences. His other books include Tree of Cranes (1991), The Ink-Keeper's Apprentice (1994), Under the Cherry Blossom Tree (1997) and Tea With Milk (1999).Copyright © 1998-2014 by Who2?, LLC.

Encyclopedia > History > United States, Canada, and Greenland > U.S. Government Farm Credit Administration
Introduction Farm Credit Administration (FCA), an independent agency of the executive branch of the federal government that supervises and regulates the Farm Credit System (FCS) for American agriculture. The Farm Credit Act of 1971, which superseded all previous legislation, authorizes the FCS to provide long-term and short-term credit to farmers and their cooperatives. Long-term mortgage loans help farmers acquire property or refinance existing debts; short-term loans are needed to finance crop and livestock production and marketing. In addition, the FCS makes emergency crop and feed loans to farmers who cannot obtain funds from other sources. Legislation in 1985 separated the FCA from the FCS and made the FCA a regulatory body with respect to the FCS. Credit used by farmers and cooperatives is provided in the FCS through a network of farm credit banks, federal land bank associations, production credit associations, and banks for cooperatives. The farm credit banks make loans to agricultural cooperatives for periods ranging from six months to three years. The loans are secured by warehouse receipts for crops or by liens on livestock. The land banks function as credit wholesalers, raising funds in the investment markets through the sale of bonds and lending the money to farmers at low interest rates. Production credit associations finance short-term credit associations, and banks for cooperatives finance cooperative marketing. Other components of the FCS include the Agricultural Credit Bank, agricultural credit associations, and federal land credit associations.

Galway (gôlˈwā) [key], county (1991 pop. 180,364), 2,293 sq mi (5,939 sq km), W Republic of Ireland. The county town is Galway. The county is divided into two sections by Lough Corrib. The mountains of the Connemara region lie to the west; to the east stretches a rolling plain, partially covered with bogs. Principal rivers are the Clare, the Clarinbridge, the Dunkelin, and the Shannon (which forms part of the eastern boundary) and its tributary, the Suck. The shoreline is extremely irregular, and there are numerous islands, the chief of which are the Aran Islands, lying off the mouth of Galway Bay. The main industries are agriculture (sheep, cattle, oats, and potatoes) and fishing (salmon). Marble is quarried, and some light manufacturing has developed.

Directions to an e-discovery solution: Leveraging on-premises software and private hosted platform for review Both options work together to provide security and efficiency, which is crucial in the last major phase of e-discovery
By Daniel LimJanuary 24, 2013
In part one and part two of this series, we’ve introduced the concept of where to draw the line between on-premise technology and cloud-based technology when building a modern and efficient e-discovery architecture that takes advantage of today’s technology. In this final part, I want to discuss why a hybrid approach of on-premises software and a private hosted platform is the best solution for e-discovery-review.
Two key factors in making the decision about whether to put e-discovery technology behind the firewall or in a hosted solution such as cloud are cost-effectiveness and the ability to create an efficient and defensible process.
The nature of e-discovery review—the last major phase of e-discovery—is that of sharing and collaboration with outside counsel and others. Doing this in a completely secure and efficient manner is critical, which makes this phase a candidate for leveraging both on-premises software and a private hosted cloud review service.
Early, on-premises review
Organizations vary in their need to conduct the end stages of review and production in-house. However, what is uniform is the need to obtain and review key documents relevant to a pending litigation as soon as possible in order to assess exposure and make decisions about how to plan for resolution of the matter. Traditionally, organizations have relied on two methods for performing early review—either obtaining a copy of key documents directly from custodians, or waiting for the collection and processing of electronically stored information (ESI) to begin producing documents for review.
Effective e-discovery allows organizations to begin reviewing key documents without waiting for full collection and processing to be complete, and without relying on witnesses to forward documents on their own to legal. Some, but not all, review capabilities such as tagging and providing an audit trail of the initial review of key documents is critical to assessing exposure as soon as possible. Trying to use a full-fledged review platform for this process is overkill in terms of horsepower for on-premises review.
What is needed by most legal departments is a precision instrument that can quickly show conversation threads for emails and documents that show the largest number of hits on key search terms and rank the files according to responsiveness. The goal is to show, from an initial pass at the documents, the “hottest” files first. This process is best accomplished through an on-premises review solution tailored to finding key documents and presenting them to the legal team as soon as possible. Such a solution needs to be integrated with the other steps of the on-premises solution—pre-collection analytics, legal hold, collection, and processing—in order to streamline and maximize effectiveness.
Private hosted platform for full review
Now we come to the cloud, which provides a great technology platform for full review. First, as a word of caution: Note that not all cloud solutions are created equal. For purposes of this article, the type of cloud solution I reference is one that is a private hosted single instance repository stored on a specified location, where specific disks can be referenced as holding data or a particular case or client. Much caution should be advised as to using public cloud review solutions, where less certainty exists as to where data is stored at a particular time.
Once ESI has been put on hold, collected and had at least some initial processing and review performed, an organization is at a stage that is less about having a customized fit based on the infrastructure of its technical systems and more about having the best, uniform method for reviewing and producing ESI.
Organizations need essentially three things from a review platform: a good way to upload collected files; a good way to review the files to make sure that only relevant, nonprivileged and nonconfidential documents are produced; and a good way to produce the documents with appropriate bates-labeling and documentation to track the files. Investing in infrastructure to support an on-premises review platform does not make sense because no real benefit exists for keeping all evidence files in-house for review.
A quality hosted review solution often provides better security than most organizations, law firms and service providers because it’s focused only on the goals of hosting and securing data for review. Moreover, investments that a private hosted solution makes in its infrastructure provide economies of scale that benefit all of the data that it hosts. Rather than replicating the same costs of infrastructure to secure and provide data for review across multiple organizations, a single hosted provider can spread the benefits of a single investment in infrastructure across all of the organizations that it services.
Having a single secure, hosted review solution also provides a point of focus for evidence files that are otherwise spread across different parts of an organization, as well as different law firms and service providers. All evidence files, and all entities involved in the review and production of those files, are directed to a single-instance repository that not only stores all evidence files for all cases, but can also consolidate information about multiple cases that involved the same evidence files. When one law firm produces files for a particular case, it will have the benefit of knowing if any of the files have already been produced in another matter or if certain designations such as privilege or confidentiality were made by another law firm to the same files.
Cloud computing has changed the economics of computing and caused many companies to re-evaluate their computing infrastructures. This increasingly includes legal technology as organizations now understand that they need a mix of technology solutions to address the rising costs and risks of producing ESI. To be successful, though, requires a holistic view of the best way to accomplish all e-discovery steps in a seamless and effective manner. Making a decision to build an e-discovery architecture that allows tailoring of a solution to an organization’s needs is crucial. The general advice of “left on premises, right on cloud” holds as the method of providing the optimum balance for cost-effective and defensible e-discovery for most organizations. Related Articles

Litigation: The efficacy of “don’t ask, don’t waive” standstill provisions
When properly designed and implemented, these provisions empower a diligent board to structure and run an orderly auction process
By John ReedFebruary 7, 2013
In late 2012, the Delaware Court of Chancery made two significant rulings on the efficacy of standstill provisions. In In re Complete Genomics, Inc. Shareholder Litigation, Vice Chancellor J. Travis Laster analogized “don’t ask, don’t waive” standstills to “no-talk” provisions in merger agreements. No-talk provisions prohibit a target company and its board from discussing alternative transactions with third parties, and have been deemed impermissible by the Court of Chancery absent certain outs. Don’t ask, don’t waive provisions prevent potential bidders from requesting that the target company waive the terms of a standstill agreement to which the potential bidder agreed. Complete Genomics, Inc., a life sciences company that developed a proprietary DNA sequencing process, decided to put itself up for sale. Hoping to protect its chief asset, Complete Genomics insisted that bidders sign confidentiality and standstill agreements before receiving access to information necessary for the potential bidders to undertake due diligence. Multiple potential bidders signed these contracts. After an auction, Complete Genomics agreed to a two-step tender offer and merger transaction with a U.S. subsidiary of a Chinese company.
The court found that, by agreeing to a standstill containing a don’t ask, don’t waive provision, the Complete Genomics board impermissibly limited its ability to discharge its ongoing statutory and fiduciary obligations to knowledgeably evaluate competing offers, disclose material information and make a meaningful merger recommendation to its stockholders. The court therefore issued a preliminary injunction enjoining Complete Genomics from enforcing the provision. The court analyzed the don’t ask, don’t waive provision by discussing a case that held strict no-talk provisions impermissible. In 1999, in Phelps Dodge Corp. v. Cyprus Amax Minerals Co., the Court of Chancery found a no-talk provision unenforceable because the board could not willfully blind itself to information it needed to carry out its duty of care. Specifically, the court held that a board must inform itself about whether it should enter into negotiations before deciding not to negotiate. In extending the rule from Phelps Dodge, the court held that plaintiff had a reasonable probability of success in demonstrating that the don’t ask, don’t waive provision functioned as a bidder-specific no-talk provision, and was therefore impermissible. The court found that plaintiff had established irreparable harm because, absent an injunction, the board would never know whether the counterparty wanted to make a topping bid or other acquisition proposal.
The court issued its injunction in Complete Genomics regarding enforcement of the don’t ask, don’t waive provision even though the counterparty in the applicable standstill agreement was not a party to the litigation and gave no indication that it planned to make a topping bid. Nevertheless, the court expressly acknowledged the permissibility of a provision restricting a bidder from making a public request that the target waive its obligations under a standstill agreement. The court spoke of public and private requests as different animals, suggesting that a board must allow private requests, but may still contractually prohibit public requests for waiver of a standstill. Just three weeks after the Complete Genomics ruling, the Court of Chancery, in In re Ancestry.com, Inc. Shareholders Litigation, enjoined a merger pending two disclosures, one of which concerned the use of don’t ask, don’t waive provisions. The court first stated that transcript rulings tend not to make broad points of law, and that no reason exists to consider don’t-ask, don’t waive standstill provisions invalid in every case, thus registering disagreement with a common interpretation of Complete Genomics. The court then suggested these provisions have a legitimate role to play in some situations, because the board can use them for a “value-maximizing purpose” by creating a “gavel” to make clear “there is really an end to the auction for those who participate. And therefore, you should bid your fullest ….” The permissibility of the board’s use of this tool will depend, however, on a contextual analysis of whether a board uses it consistently with its fiduciary duties. In the Ancestry.com case, the court held that this board probably breached its duty of care by allowing one bidder to ignore the don’t ask, don’t waive provision, but failing to relieve other parties constrained by similar provisions from their obligations until after this litigation commenced. Nevertheless, the fact that the board eventually freed all potential bidders from these restrictive provisions led the court to conclude there should be no further injunctive relief. The court enjoined the deal pending disclosure by the board that it used don’t ask, don’t waive provisions, reasoning that shareholders would want to know about these provisions because they may have prevented the emergence of a superior offer.
It is important to note that these opinions result from transcript rulings of the Court of Chancery, not the Delaware Supreme Court, when deciding motions for a preliminary injunction where the record is limited. Vice Chancellor Laster’s Complete Genomics ruling does not appear to invalidate per se all don’t ask, don’t waive standstills, but merely questions their enforceability where a sale agreement with another party has been announced and the target has an obligation to consider competing offers.
Corporations can benefit from using the approved form of don’t ask, don’t waive provisions. When properly designed and implemented, a standstill agreement with a don’t ask, don’t waive provision empowers a diligent board to structure and run an orderly auction process where bidders are incentivized to make their highest bid prior to the seller signing and announcing a definitive sale agreement. These provisions can also give added comfort to target boards that a determination to commence an exploration of a potential sale process will not lead to a hostile process. « Previous

8 notable GCs in the news
General counsel sound off on art heists, safe sex, drone strikes and more
By Alanna ByrneMarch 22, 2013
Purloined Paintings
"Eventually they will resurface. Somebody will rat somebody else out. It's really only a matter of time."
--Christopher Marinello, general counsel of The Art Loss Register
For 23 years, the theft of $500 million worth of artwork from Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum has been one of the greatest mysteries in the art world. But now authorities at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) say they know the identity of the two thieves who posed as Boston police officers, tied up two guards and made off with 13 works by the likes of Degas, Vermeer and Rembrandt on the night of March 18, 1990.
As surprising as the agency’s revelation seems, Marinello told the Associated Press that it is not uncommon for stolen paintings to reappear, even after nearly a quarter of a century.
Warrantless Wiretaps
"In my ten months at the NSA, it's [become] evident to me that I am the general counsel for one of the most highly regulated entities in the world.”
--Rajesh De, general counsel of the National Security Agency (NSA)
Last month, the Supreme Court in a 5-4 ruling blocked a lawsuit challenging the NSA’s practice of warrantless wiretapping. One day later, De defended the agency’s practices in a speech at Georgetown University Law Center, arguing that, without judicial approval, the NSA does not monitor the communications of unwitting Americans “when there is a reasonable expectation of privacy” and U.S. law would require a warrant. De also disputed the portrayal of the NSA as an agency that “operates in the shadows, free from external scrutiny or true accountability.” Despite the organization’s necessary secrecy, he maintained, it answers to multiple government regulators, other agencies and the legislative branch.
Resale Ruling
“The ruling for Kirtsaeng will send a tremor through the publishing industries, harming both U.S. businesses and consumers around the world.”
--Keith Kupferschmid, general counsel for the Software & Information Industry Association
Broke college students everywhere likely breathed a sigh of relief when the Supreme Court ruled this week in Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons that overseas goods, including textbooks, can be resold online and in discount stores without running afoul of copyright laws.
Supap Kirtsaeng, a Thai graduate student, earned extra cash by getting his overseas relatives to buy cut-rate international editions of U.S. textbooks, which he then resold on eBay. Kirtsaeng argued that his actions were legal under the “first-sale doctrine,” which allows lawful buyers to give away or sell their purchases. The 2nd Circuit ruled that the law did not apply to imported materials, but the Supreme Court reversed that decision on Tuesday, to the dismay of some in the publishing, software and music businesses.
Climbing Cases
"I talked to a lot of … HR groups, and most companies would admit that at least two years ago their policies were written without consideration of workers' rights. They were written very, very over broadly.”
--Lafe Solomon, general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)
In 2010, the NLRB filed a complaint against American Medical Response of Connecticut, an ambulance service that fired an employee after she complained about management on her Facebook page. Following that widely publicized case, the board has seen an increase in the number of social media-related cases. Solomon said at a conference that most of the cases either challenge employee terminations or dispute companies’ social media policies.
Drone Drama
“I guess I belong in the category of ‘skeptic.’”
--Jeh Johnson, former general counsel of the Department of Defense (DOD)
The issue of targeted overseas drone strikes has sparked public controversy, protests and a 13-hour filibuster on the Senate floor. But creating a “drone court” to oversee such strikes isn’t the answer, according to Johnson. In a speech at the Fordham University School of Law, the former DOD general counsel admitted that such a court could offer “some added levels of credibility, independence and rigor” to the strikes. But Johnson maintained that it inappropriately gives courts the power to question the president’s authority as commander-in-chief, which is enshrined in the Constitution.
Microsoft Malfeasance
“In a company of our size, allegations of this nature will be made from time to time.”
--John Frank, deputy general counsel of Microsoft
Nowadays, it seems that no company is safe from the long arm of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and that apparently includes Microsoft Corp. Officials at the Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission have reportedly launched preliminary investigations into allegations that the tech company paid bribes to certain consultants, resellers and other associates in Romania, China and Italy. The bribes were allegedly used to secure software contracts in those countries.
In a blog post, Frank declined to comment on the investigations, but said that the company was cooperating fully with authorities. He also noted that “it is not unusual for such reviews to find that an allegation was without merit.”
“There's a law on the books, it needs to be enforced and we hope that the county will take it up."
--Tom Myers, general counsel of the AIDS Healthcare Foundation
A new Los Angeles law requiring adult film actors to wear condoms is being put to the test, following a complaint from the AIDS Healthcare Foundation. Measure B, which took effect last December, mandates that pornographic film companies must take safety measures—including condom use—when filming in Los Angeles County.
But production company Immoral Productions allegedly failed to institute these safety measures, which the AIDS organization discovered after receiving an anonymous tip. Foundation officials say they filed the complaint to test whether the county will actually enforce the new safety measures.
Furious Fans
“You are contractually obligated to make the payments due under the Premium Seat Agreement, as invoiced, through the end of the 2013 baseball season.”
--Derek Jackson, general counsel of the Miami Marlins, in a letter to two season-ticket holders
As if the Miami Marlins hadn’t alienated enough fans with their controversial new stadium and less-than-impressive 2012 record, the baseball team is now threatening to sue two season-ticket holders who complained about the allegedly obstructed view from their seats. Jan and Bill Leon agreed to buy two years’ worth of season tickets, but during the first year of the deal their prime stadium real estate was partially obscured by a new billboard.
After the season, the couple told the team that they would not pay $25,000 for the second season’s seats unless the team moved them away from the billboard. In response, the team threatened to sue the couple for the cost of the tickets. The Marlins, however, claim that they offered several alternate seats to the Leons, who refused them all. « Previous

Sixers hire Jeff Ruland as assistant coach Posted by
Inside Hoops Aug 22 Jeff says: Ruland, a former NBA big-man, is a big dude. For all you size-challenged people out there, if Ruland ever decides to fall asleep while standing up, and you happen to be near him, move away, quickly. Why would he fall asleep standing up? No reason at all. Just saying, if for some absurd reason that ever happened, get out of the way. Anyway, here’s the news release:
Philadelphia 76ers President and General Manager Ed Stefanski announced today that Jeff Ruland has been hired as an assistant coach. Ruland’s main area of concentration as part of Head Coach Maurice Cheeks’ staff will be to work with and help develop the Sixers post players.
“That I am able to add a coach with the experience and credentials of Jeff Ruland to my staff is exciting,” Cheeks said. “He’ll be an invaluable resource for our players - particularly our big men - and an asset to the organization as a whole.”
“I’m excited to re-join the 76ers and have the opportunity to help the organization reach the goal of winning a championship, as well as return to a city that is very close to me and my family,” Ruland said. “I owe a lot to the Thunderbirds and the ownership there. Sam Bregman and David Kahn played a large part in my move back to the NBA. I am a shining example of how the NBA Development League continues to prosper and promote, not only players, but coaches as well.”
An eight-year NBA veteran, Ruland most recently served as head coach of the Albuquerque Thunderbirds of the NBA Development League during the 2007-08 season. Prior to that, Ruland was head coach of his alma mater Iona, helping the Gaels secure three NCAA Tournament berths during his nine seasons at the helm.
A two-time NBA All-Star, Ruland appeared in 332 career games with 189 starts, averaging a point-rebound double-double with 17.4 ppg and 10.2 rpg. His best season came with Washington in 1983-84 when he led the NBA in minutes played while averaging 22.2 points, 12.3 rebounds and 3.9 assists.
In June of 1986, the Sixers acquired Ruland and Cliff Robinson from the Bullets in exchange for Moses Malone, Terry Catledge and two first round draft picks. However, a knee injury forced Ruland to retire after just five games with the Sixers. Five years later, he came out of retirement to join the Sixers during the 1991-92 season, but suffered a torn Achilles after appearing in 13 games.
Following his second retirement from the NBA in 1993, Ruland again returned to the Sixers, this time as an assistant coach on Fred Carter’s staff during the 1993-94 season. In 1995, Ruland was hired as an assistant coach at Iona College by Tim Welsh, who most recently completed a 10-year run as head coach at Providence College.
During his playing career at Iona, Ruland was coached by the legendary Jim Valvano. Ruland played for several coaches during his NBA career, including two current members of the Sixers staff, assistant coach Jim Lynam and scout Gene Shue.

Duke lacrosse isn't the only program with extra eligibility
Mike Keegan - 6/22/2007
Much as been made of the Duke lacrosse players getting their extra year of eligibility. But there are plenty of lacrosse players out there who'll be returning for a fifth year that can make a big difference.
Perhaps the biggest is Georgetown defenseman Jerry Lambe, who redshirted in '04, his freshman year, for medical reasons. Lambe was a second team All-American in 2007. So his return in 2008 is huge for the Hoyas. Especially since Georgetown might need him to cover his former high school teammate again next spring: Duke's Matt Danowski.
"He's in summer school right now," says Georgetown coach Dave Urick. "We'll probably see how it goes with his courses, but he very well might come back just for the spring term. He's very close to his degree so it might make sense to do an internship in the fall and make a few dollars. ... We don’t want to make a habit of having guys stay a fifth year, but if it's an injury situation like it was with Jerry, and if you can do something to help situate yourself when you do leave, it makes more sense."
Georgetown will also welcome back middie Chase Gahan, who also redshirted his freshman season ('04) for medical reasons.
"He's a bright young man," says Urick. "He didn’t graduate even though he could’ve, but he wanted to do a fifth year so he'd get his degree, a B.S. in the business school, and be a CPA. I didn’t even know we had that program at Georgetown, but I guess we do, and it's a program that extends into a fifth year."
One more fifth-year bit of news, or rather pending news: Albany goalie Brett Queener has applied for a fifth year but has not heard from the NCAA yet. I will do my best to keep you posted...

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), reflecting the dive in the overall market Wednesday, has been flirting with "bear market" territory on the stock, finishing a 20-percent drop in the price since mid-September. But how low can it go, even with several new devices in the market for the holiday season - which is usually its best sales season?
Would you believe $530 or less, just a short time after the Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock reached an all-time high of $705? For Darren Chervitz of Jacob Internet Fund, that would seem to be a good play. But for Jeff Gundlach, CEO of Doubleline Capital, that might even be overbought - he projects the stock going as low as $425 next

Home > Cambodian Students Begin Learning about Khmer Rouge Atrocities Youk Chhang, who directs the Documentation Center of Cambodia, said that between 20-30 percent of young students in his country are "children of the perpetrators."Cambodian Students Begin Learning about Khmer Rouge AtrocitiesYouk Chhang, director of the Documentation Center of Cambodia, describes the challenges of teaching young people about the country's holocaust. Over the last two weeks of April, he met with students and faculty at UCLA, Berkeley, Irvine and San Diego.By Kevin Matthews Senior WriterSo now you have the classroom where there are children on both sides, and now you have the teachers on both sides. How would you teach this thing?UCLA Today
More than 30 years after the worst mass murder since World War II, Cambodian high school students are for the first time learning about Khmer Rouge atrocities at school, thanks to the work of an independent organization dedicated to documenting the genocide that occurred at the hands of the Khmer Rouge.
The task of producing a 100-page textbook on the subject, getting it into classrooms in Cambodia and training 3,200 teachers on how to instruct students about this dark period in their country's history is among the latest achievements of the Phnom Penh–based Documentation Center of Cambodia, directed by "killing fields" survivor Youk Chhang.
With funding from the U.S. and Swedish governments, the center since the 1990s has assembled 600,000 pages of primary documents and 6,000 photographs, mapped out 189 prisons and 20,000 mass graves, and interviewed 10,000 people from the Khmer Rouge ranks. The center's archive has gathered in detail the names, faces and stories that give meaning to what are unimaginable numbers.
As many as two million people were murdered, starved or worked to death in the small country between 1975 and 1979, while Pol Pot's government was proclaiming an agrarian utopia. The archive is central to work begun in 2006 by a United Nations–backed special tribunal established to try the country's aging war criminals for the first time.
"We at the center believe that genocide is a part of us," said Chhang at a talk hosted by UCLA's Center for Southeast Asian Studies at Royce Hall on April 26. "It's our identity. Like a shadow, you can see it, and you don't see it. That shadow is memory. It belongs to all of us."
Chhang, who met over the last two weeks of April with students and faculty at UCLA, Berkeley, Irvine and San Diego, traveled to the campuses under a U.S. Department of Education–funded program to bring distinguished Southeast Asians to California.
One of the center's goals is to make rigorous education about this period in Cambodia's history a top priority. But not everyone agrees that it should be. Families of victims often are divided over how to remember this period, he said.
For example, Chhang said, his niece, a survivor who lives in Maryland, never saw the point of his campaign for a war crimes tribunal, which couldn't bring back her parents. Chhang's mother, a Buddhist, has said that she forgives the Khmer Rouge.
Chhang acknowledges that he began his work on documenting the atrocities in order to get back at the people who murdered his sister and other family members, and who beat him mercilessly in front of his mother. "Everyone wants justice on their own terms," he told the audience.
A Difficult Task
Chhang estimates that between 20-30 percent of the young students sitting in classrooms are children of the Khmer Rouge. "So now you have the classroom [where there are] children on both sides, and now you have the teachers on both sides. … How would you teach this thing?"
Skulls from a mass grave of Khmer Rouge victims in Choeung -- the Killing Fields near Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
From his experience of taking groups of 200 students to see the tribunal in Phnom Penh, Chhang knows that young people have their own ways of dismissing the past. In class discussions, some argue aggressively that Cambodians should reconcile and "live together in harmony."
On at least one such occasion, he said, a teacher on the trip demanded the microphone. "He said, 'Look, all of you, you don't understand how I feel. I lost brother, sister, mother, parent. No food to eat. I lost a child. And now you want me to forgive?' The whole room was silent," Chhang said.
Silence fell again during another classroom discussion moderated by Chhang, when he introduced a prison chief and a survivor from the same prison. Initially, Chhang said, the students directed some questions to the survivor. Finally, a 16-year-old student accused the prison head of wanting only power over others. The student's remarks were applauded by his classmates. But Chhang insisted that the man be allowed to tell his story.
"The perpetrators also see themselves as victims," said Chhang. There have been stories of Khmer Rouge who joined the movement for status and protection and then lived in fear of punishment by superiors. Chhang advises teachers to allow students to play the roles of both the perpetrator and victim in class, and to interview their parents about the period.
While he was at UCLA, Chhang visited Professor Geoffrey Robinson's history seminar on political violence and genocide, and he spoke to students learning Vietnamese and Thai. He also visited the USC Shoah Foundation Institute exhibition on the Khmer Rouge Trial. At UC San Diego, he was moved by "Unspoken Words," a theater production by the Cambodian Student Association. In the play by Jennifer Ka, a U.S.-born Cambodian woman seeks to overcome her mother's resistance to talking about the past, a barrier to "a real relationship with her daughter," Ka wrote in an e-mail.

Cedar Fair Forging Its Future By Greg Sushinsky
Filed Under: Equity Tickers in this Article: FUN, SIX, WOLF, MTN, LVS, WINN Amusement park owner Cedar Fair LP (NYSE:FUN) reported revenue and attendance increases for the third quarter. Net income fell due to debt refinancing and costs related to the earlier failed takeover attempt by Apollo Management, as well as other charges. Cedar Fair also announced it planned to resume quarterly dividend payments next year.IN PICTURES: 4 Biggest Investor ErrorsEarnings OverviewFor the third quarter, Cedar Fair earned $75.7 million or $1.36 per partnership unit, compared to $107.6 million or $1.92 per partnership unit in last year's quarter. A $35 million loss was taken for the early extinguishment of debt. The company believes adjusted EBITDA is a more meaningful measurement of its performance, and its adjusted EBITDA was $299.7 million compared to $276.9 million in Q3 last year.Consumers Return to the ParksCedar Fair increased attendance at its parks by 5% or 547,000 during the third quarter. The company cited new rides and innovative marketing plans, as well as gains in season pass visits, group sales and greater occupancy at its resorts. For the first nine months of the year, attendance was 19.8 million, an increase of 6%. October attendance, after the end of the third quarter on September 30, showed a 29% increase from last year's October figures, and puts Cedar Fair's attendance at 22.2 million compared to 20.6 million for the first ten months of 2009.
Cedar Fair's TurnaroundCedar Fair's performance shows its business turnaround compared to the depths of the recession. Saddled with debt from its purchase of Paramount's Parks, along with falling attendance and revenue, the company suspended its dividend payment and had to fend off a takeover attempt. That Cedar Fair has fought its way back in a difficult industry is impressive. Six Flags Entertainment (NYSE:SIX), which traveled through bankruptcy, is trying to rebuild its business and stabilize its earnings. Great Wolf Resorts (Nasdaq: WOLF) is facing possible loan defaults and shrinking business.The difficulties in the travel and leisure industry aren't confined to the amusement park operators, as Vail Resorts (NYSE:MTN) has seen earnings and revenue fall off throughout the recession. On the other hand, some gaming resorts, Las Vegas Sands (NYSE:LVS) and Wynn Resorts (Nasdaq:WINN), are flush with business and their skyrocketing stock prices have been the market's reward.Cedar Fair's PositionCedar Fair has been restructuring its balance sheet, refinancing its loans, and so pushing out its debt maturities. The company currently holds cash and equivalents of $61.7 million, with long-term debt still at $1.574 billion but without the press of so much near-term repayment. Due to its refinancing activities, cost-cutting, and improved cash flow, Cedar Fair is in a better liquidity position than it was prior to Apollo's takeover bid.Add to this the steady improvement in its business the company now projects $965 to $980 million in 2010 for its full year revenue, the scheduled resumption of $20 million in distribution payments to shareholders scheduled to begin next March, and it's clear that the breathing room Cedar Fair fashioned for itself after the takeover attempt is clearly paying off. Cedar Fair is still a true pure play amusement park owner and by far the best of a limited group, if you include Six Flags and Great Wolf. The stock has steadily climbed in the last year, as Cedar Fair moves from the survival mode onto better things.

Enterprise Multiple
Filed Under: Equity Valuation, M&A, Takeover Definition of 'Enterprise Multiple'
A ratio used to determine the value of a company. The enterprise multiple looks at a firm as a potential acquirer would, because it takes debt into account - an item which other multiples like the P/E ratio do not include. Enterprise multiple is calculated as:
Also known as the EBITDA Multiple. Investopedia explains 'Enterprise Multiple'
A low ratio indicates that a company might be undervalued. The enterprise multiple is used for several reasons:1) It's useful for transnational comparisons because it ignores the distorting effects of individual countries' taxation policies.2) It's used to find attractive takeover candidates. Enterprise value is a better metric than market cap for takeovers. It takes into account the debt which the acquirer will have to assume. Therefore, a company with a low enterprise multiple can be viewed as a good takeover candidate.Keep in mind that enterprise multiples can vary depending on the industry. Therefore, it's important to compare the multiple to other companies or to the industry in general. Expect higher enterprise multiples in high growth industries (like biotech) and lower multiples in industries with slow growth (like railways). Related Definitions

Creating an improved, or at least a different, way of life supported by a given set of natural inputs could also enhance the overall resource productivity in society. For developed countries (and the corresponding social sections in developing countries) pursuing such an objective might start from the insight offered by some research that there is no clear link between level of GNP and quality of life (or satisfaction) beyond certain thresholds. Linton (1998) and UNDP (1998) draw this distinction clearly. Both sources argue that the quality of life is determined by subjective and non-subjective variables. On the subjective side, quality of life depends upon personal satisfaction, which in part depends on shared preferences and institutional values. On the non-subjective side, it depends upon opportunity structures, which may include access to nature, participation in community, availability of non-market goods, or public wealth, in addition to purchasing power. This literature describes situations in which GNP growth continues without a corresponding increase in human welfare as overdevelopment or uneconomic growth (Daly, 1997). For developing countries, however, the research suggests that this decoupling perspective may start from the insight that non-monetary assets (in terms of natural resources, just as in terms of community networks) need to be protected and enhanced to improve the livelihoods of the poorer and less powerful sections of society. Structures, patterns, and rates of economic growth may have to be shaped in such a way that these non-monetary assets are not diminished, but increased. On both monetary and non-monetary accounts, a decoupling transition to sustainability implies a twin-track strategy. It may be achieved through both an intelligent reinvention of means (efficiency) and a prudent moderation of ends (sufficiency; Meadows et al., 1992; Sachs et al., 1998) for the sake of both environmental and social sustainability. With regard to the environment, efficiency-centred strategies can have a limit; they can fail to account for the effects of continuing growth (Ayres, 1998). For instance, higher per-unit fuel efficiency of cars may not reduce total gasoline consumption in the long run if growth effects in terms of number, power, and size of cars cancel efficiency gains (see Chapter 3; Pinguelli Rosa and Tolmasquin, 1993).26 With regard to social justice, resource consumption on the part of the rich has been shown, at times, to undermine the environmental sources of livelihood for the poor. Frequently discussed examples are the construction of large dams for urban electricity supply, which displace large numbers of subsistence peasants, or deforestation for industrial purposes, which marginalizes indigenous people living in and from the forest. In contrast to literature that postulates a trickling-down effect in the long term, this school of thought is concerned about the social cost in the present. For its proponents, to secure the rights of the most vulnerable would, in many cases, imply moderation of resource extraction in terms of absolute volumes (Gadgil and Guha, 1995). In the light of these reasons, social and technological systems that combine both high eco-efficiency and intermediate performance levels may be the most likely to foster human welfare at a lower cost to the environment and to social justice. Four dimensionsintermediate performance levels, regionalization, appropriate lifestyles, and community resource rightscan be distinguished in the relevant literature. Policy options identified along these four dimensions emerge from a broader concept of climate mitigation than is typically captured in the energy supply and demand technologies represented in existing energyeconomic models. Each option has great potential to reduce GHG emissions, but each needs to be evaluated carefully in terms of its impacts on economic, social, and biological systems. This sort of evaluation of opportunity cost has not, however, been reported in the literature under review. Moreover, most authors are ready to admit that the con

T: +353(0)669152476 F: +353(0)669152481 E: [email protected] Díseart strives to enable people access, study, and appropriate our native Irish culture and spirituality in terms of language, literature, history, archaeology, folklore, theology, spirituality and music.
Díseart strives to enable people access, study, and appropriate our native Irish culture and spirituality in terms of language, literature, history, archaeology, folklore, theology, spirituality and music. This involves educational courses and cultural activities.Díseart occupies a stately neo-Gothic building flanked by beautiful walled gardens tastily landscaped and hiding a tunnel which connects Díseart and the neighbouring St. Mary’s Church. Díseart and Church had the same architect, J.J. McCarthy. The choral chapel is a gem of its kind and deserves special attention. Visitors are welcome to Díseart, the chapel being the greatest attraction. It is of perfect or golden mean proportions. Its roof and handcarved stalls are of Spanish oak; the altar is of Italian marble as is the sanctuary floor and altar surrounds.The outstanding feature is the twelve lancet stained glass windows of the choral nave, the work of the renowned Harry Clarke (889-1931); these windows depict in sumptuously rich colours, and with a wealth of detail, six major scenes from the life of Christ—The Visit of the Magi, The Baptism of Christ, Suffer the Little Children, The Sermon on the Mount, The Agony in the Garden, The Resurrection.Visitors may choose a quiet thoughtful entrancing view or have a guided tour.

'Ireland Reaching Out' program calls for Irish diaspora to lend hand
A new program unveiled by Galway communities aims to tap into the economic potential of the Irish diaspora.Around 30 parishes in Co.Galway are planning to reach out and invite Irish emigrants to return to the west, to retrace their roots during a “Week of Welcomes," in a bid to harness the economic potential of the Irish diaspora.The ‘Ireland Reaching Out’ program has been funded by private and public investors and was officially launched this week by leading economist David McWilliams.
The pilot scheme will invite at least 40,0000 emigrants from parishes such as Gort, Loughrea and Portumna to return to their homeland for a series of events next summer.Emigrants will be contacted by letter, inviting them to attend the “Week of Welcomes” in their home parish.Each parish intends to plans a series of events which will offer returning ex-pats a strong sense of local history, culture and heritage. The visitors will stay in their native parishes, eat in local restaurants and attend traditional sporting events.It is hoped the “Week of Welcomes” will provide an economic boost for the local economies and organizers are hopeful that the returning diaspora may become inspired to invest in their homeland as a result.

Mark Wahlberg's feud with Leonardo DiCaprio started at a charity event
A very young Mark Wahlberg and Leonardo DiCaprio in happier times
The 42-year-old actor didn't realise he had infuriated the 39-year-old star until it came to him auditioning for 1995 drama movie 'The Basketball Diaries', and he claims Leonardo – who played main character Jim Carroll in the film – was determined to make sure Mark didn't land a part in the motion picture.Speaking in the latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine, he said: “Leonardo [DiCaprio] was like, ‘Over my dead f***ing body. Marky Mark’s not going to be in this f***ing movie.’
"Because we’d had a thing - I didn’t even realise it, [but] I was a bit of a dick to him at a charity basketball game."So he was like, ‘This f***ing asshole is not going to be in this movie.’ "Despite the initial animosity, Mark impressed the producers and landed the role of Mickey and the pair ended becoming really good friends.He added: "So I come in and I do the audition and I kind of look at him and he kind of looks at me, and then we do a scene, and they’re like, ‘Hmm, this f***ing dude’s pretty good, right?’"The next thing you know, boom, we’re hanging out.” Submit MostPopular

Twenty years of justice reform in South Africa: what is there to show for it?
'South Africa's system of criminal justice is in a crisis. If its ability to prevent, process and deter crime is any measure of its effectiveness, then reforming the system is now not only a necessity but a national priority. Unfortunately, the system is not easily fixed; it is not characterised by a single problem that can be resolved speedily, but is characterised by blockages, many of which cause delays in other parts of the criminal justice pipeline'.
For many, these words by Dr Mark Shaw in an Institute for Security Studies publication ring as true today as they did in 1996 when first published. After twenty years of democracy, it is fair to ask whether South Africans believe that the criminal justice system (CJS), and in particular the courts, has become accessible, effective, fair and impartial. If the latest Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) findings are anything to go by, the more than R600 billion invested in the CJS since 2001 has not resulted in continuous improvements when it comes to public perception.
Using the annual South African Social Attitude Surveys, the HSRC has analysed trends in the level of trust that citizens place in the courts over a 15-year period from 1998. Interestingly, there were significant increases in the levels of trust in the courts between 2000, when only 37% of South Africans said that they had trust in the courts, and 2004, when trust levels peaked at 58%.
However, trust in the courts then deteriorated until 2007 when they hit a low of 49%, before starting to increase again, reaching a high of 57% in 2009. While we can only speculate as to the reasons behind these trends, the peaks appear to coincide with election years when the promises of new administrations created hopes of better government services.
Nevertheless, aware that the CJS was not functioning optimally and that public perceptions were deteriorating, the government undertook an in-depth review to identify the key challenges. This resulted in the Seven-Point Implementation Plan, which at the time was driven by an energetic Deputy Minister of Justice and Constitutional Development, Johnny de Lange. The plan provided a clear and practical roadmap for the establishment of a ‘single, integrated, seamless and modern criminal justice system’. De Lange did a great job of both rallying the different CJS departments behind the implementation of the plan and ensuring that the public became aware of government’s intentions to fix the problems.
This all changed abruptly with the introduction of a new administration following the 2009 elections. The government ceased to give the plan publicity and the CJS appeared to be thrown into turmoil as poor political appointments were made to the senior echelons of the police and the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA). Since then trust levels have declined so that in 2012, exactly half (50%) of citizens displayed some level of trust in the courts. Of course, ongoing and unjustified attacks on the courts by senior African National Congress (ANC) and government officials may also have weakened public confidence among certain constituencies.
An in-depth analysis by the HSRC suggests that disadvantaged and vulnerable groups are less likely to perceive the justice system as impartial and fair and ‘therefore, were found to be less trusting of the courts’. About two in five respondents (44%) believed that the courts would be more likely to find persons guilty if they were black and 51% felt people were more likely to be found guilty if they were poor. Only a little more than one in three (38%) felt that the rich and the poor would be treated equally before the criminal courts.
Recognising the challenges facing the criminal justice system, the National Development Plan 2030 (NDP) has recommended that immediate action be taken to continue the implementation of the seven-point plan in an effort to improve public confidence in the courts. The NDP also urged that several processes be put in place before the plan’s implementation:
Departments in the Justice, Crime Prevention and Security (JCPS) cluster must immediately align their strategic plans with the seven-point plan.
The project manager appointed to the Office for Criminal Justice System Reform must coordinate the plan’s activities and programmes to ensure that the JCPS departments implement the seven-point plan in a synchronised manner.
Dedicated budgets for each participating department must be established and outcomes reported on in relation to the plan.
Continuous monitoring by the JCPS cluster and regular reporting on the plan’s implementation is needed.
Interestingly, while it may not be receiving much publicity, steps are being taken by the JCPS to implement the NDP’s recommendations. The Strategic Plan of the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development (DoJ) for 2013 to 2018, released in March 2013, indicates that progress has been made as follows:
The Regional Court Protocol, the Case Finalisation Protocol and the Trial Efficiency Court Protocol have been implemented through the JCPS cluster.
A cluster delivery agreement was signed in 2010 as part of government’s Programme of Action. This agreement incorporates the implementation of the seven-point plan and progress is said to have been made to ensure greater coordination among cluster partners.
Processes are under way to review the alignment of the magisterial districts with municipal boundaries, where this is desirable and feasible to enhance access to justice.
Implementation of the seven-point plan is driven by the Office for Criminal Justice Reform, based in the DoJ. A critical component of the plan is the establishment of the Electronic Case Management System (ECMS) to ensure better management of crime information across the various criminal justice departments. This would allow for blockages or shortcomings in the system to be more effectively identified and fixed.
Unfortunately, however, it seems doubtful that the ECMS is anywhere near to being ready. This emerged in parliament on 20 April 2013 when the Portfolio Committee on Police lambasted South African Police Service (SAPS) officials when they said that the system was still being developed – 11 years after its implementation was agreed upon –and that it may take 10 more years to be fully operational.
In the meantime, officials in the JCPS cluster drive the process as best they can. However, the delays experienced since the launch of the plan demonstrate that high-level political champions are required to monitor and drive it. Worryingly, senior political leaders in government appear to be more concerned with reviewing the judgements of the Constitutional Court and Supreme Court of Appeal, which will not tell us how to improve the justice system, and passing legislation that may weaken the independence of the legal fraternity. Ideally, the ministers involved in the criminal justice system should be seen to be at the forefront of driving the implementation of the seven-point plan to improve the efficiency of the criminal justice system. Until then, we are unlikely to see demonstrable improvements in the near future.

Consolidation of the Binational (Panama-Costa Rica) Commission of the Sixaola River Basin Moves Forward
Members of the Sixaola Binational Commission met May 14-17 in Bocas del Toro, Panama, to strengthen their capacities in governance of shared waters and determine the next steps as commission.
Panama, May 2012 (IUCN). The objective of the Binational Commission of the Sixaola River Basin is to conserve biodiversity, foster sustainable production and strengthen binational institutional framework under the Costa Rica-Panama Convention for Transboundary Development. As part of the 2012 road map, thirty people met for four days in Bocas del Toro, Panama, to dialogue about the commission’s structure and regulations and take an active part in an IUCN training session on Governance of Shared Waters As part of the training, presentations were given on themes of interest to the commission, such as current water-related risk in Costa Rica due to climate change, offered by Roberto Villalobos of Costa Rica’s Meteorological Institute. Relating the experience of the Binational Manager Group of the Goascorán River Basin between Honduras and El Salvador, Luis Maier of Fundación Vida urged the commission to set up joint projects and share lessons with other countries of the region.
Motivated by these experiences, the Sixaola River Basin Commission called for studying the possibility of a project to analyze risk to the water sector from climate change in the basin. This could be the Commission’s first joint project in a common work plan, which also includes gradually incorporating joint actions in the binational watershed of the Sixaola River.
Commission members also heard from IUCN staff on aspects of international law, governance of shared waters and building consensus. This was complemented by a practical exercise and tools, also prepared by IUCN, enabling participants to put into practice their new knowledge and skills in negotiation and consensus-building as applied to management of shared watersheds.
This meeting is one of the activities programmed for strengthening and consolidating the Sixaola River Basin Commission. Says civil society representative Mildred Ramírez, “The Commission is a very important body because we have to be in both Panama and Costa Rica, working united. We have from great natural riches to environmental problems…these meetings are important in order to see the expectations of both countries and be able to reach agreement.”
This process has been characterized by the synergy and coordination generated among the Executive Secretariats of the Costa Rica-Panama Convention for Border Development, the project on integrated management of ecosystems in the binational Sixaola river basin (“Sixaola Binational Project”), the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and the Sixaola River Binational Commission, under the common objective of conserving biodiversity, fostering sustainable development and strengthening the binational institutional framework of the Sixaola river basin.
IUCN currently executes two projects in the watershed: Building River Dialogue and Governance (“BRIDGE”), supported by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), and Water Management for Adaptation, supported by the German Government through ICI-BMU, as part of a strategic crosscutting theme promoting transboundary cooperation and comprehensive water resource management.

Miopithecus ogouensis
CERCOPITHECIDAE
Kingdon, 1997
Northern Talapoin Monkey, Gabon Talapoin
Machado (1969) revised the genus and clearly established the differences between Miopithecus talapoin and an unnamed species, later named by Kingdon (1997). The spelling ogouensis was used in the original description of the taxon and should therefore be retained, though it would have been preferable to have spelt it ogooueensis, because it is based on the River Ogooue (Grubb et al. 2003).
Oates, J.F. & Groves, C.P.
Mittermeier, R.A. & Rylands, A.B. (Primate Red List Authority)
listed as Least Concern as this species tolerates a wide variety of habitat modification and does well near human settlements and there are no major threats believed to be resulting in a significant range-wide decline.
The Northern Talapoin occus in the equatorial coastal forest zone from just south of the Sanaga River in southern Cameroon to Cabinda (Angola), including Equatorial Guinea and Gabon. The principal river and centre of its distribution is the Ogooue River, but its range spills over into the upper reaches of some Congo River tributaries, e.g. the Sangha River, Alima River, and Lefini River. According to Gautier-Hion et al. (1999) it also occurs on the north bank of the Sanaga River, and indeed a recent survey by Maisels et al. (2006) in the Mbam Djerem National Park, Cameroon, recorded the presence of talapoin monkeys (Miopithecus ogouensis). Mbam Djerem National Park is in the transition zone between the Central African forest block and the Guinea-Congolia/Sudania savannas (Maisels et al. 2006).
Native:Angola (Angola, Cabinda); Cameroon; Congo; Equatorial Guinea; Gabon
Historically, this was a common species in riverine and swamp forests, although hunting has probably slightly reduced their population sizes today. Their troops were larger near villages because they were attracted to manioc and were difficult to hunt because of they inhabited riverine and swamp habitat. It lives in groups of 12-20 animals, which come together with other groups at specific night-roosts (situated in dense vegetation near water). In total, up to 125 animals may congregate. Home ranges cover 100-500 ha at densities of 40-90 animals per sq km.
This species inhabits lowland equatorial rainforest, swamps and riverine forest. It is typically associated with rivers and uses freshwater as one of its main habitats. It is strictly dependent on dense evergreen cover due to its small size and vulnerability to predation, and prefers the very dense undergrowth typical of riverbanks. It seldom ascends to higher levels, except through foliage-covered liana tangles. It is never found more than 500 m from a watercourse, and can swim and diver under water if disturbed in overhanging vegetation. Terrestrial foraging is known to be common, and its diet is primarily composed of fruits (approximately 80% composition). Favoured species include the fruits of plums (Uapaca), figs, umbrella trees (Musanga), and mokenjo (Pseudospondias), as well as the flesh of oil palm nuts and the fruits of African ginger (Aframomum, which can only be gathered at ground-level). Beetles, caterpillars, and spiders are taken opportunistically. It is attracted out of the forest by riverside gardens containing bananas, paw-paw, maize, and cucurbits. Feeding is concentrated into one early morning bout, with another in late afternoon.
This species is not threatened, despite its restricted range (perhaps largely due to the presence of a close relative, Allen’s Swamp Monkey, which has very similar habits) and susceptibility to predation. Indeed, densities of this species may double close to human settlements, with horticultural activity offering three main benefits: the deterrence of predators by human disturbance, the generation of secondary growth due to clearance and land rotation, and the availability of new food sources in gardens. It is not a major target of hunters.
This species is listed under CITES Appendix II, and as Class B under the African Convention. This species is found in many of protected areas across its range, and the recent record from Mbam Djerem by Maisels et al. (2006) suggest that it has probably been overlooked elsewhere.

Acanthurus lineatus is widespread throughout the Indo-Pacific region, is common and locally abundant. It is fished over many parts of it range and is a targeted commercial and ornamental species. There were significant reductions in biomass between fished and unfished areas in the Philippines (Stockwell et al. 2009). Densities of this species are considerably lower outside of marine reserves and in areas of high exploitation. In American Samoa, where this species is the most important of the reef fishes in subsistence and artisanal fisheries, there have been no indications of significant overfishing. Moreover, fishery independent surveys with fishery-dependent data showed a decline in fishing effort resulting in constant catch landings and catch-per-unit effort (Sabater and Carroll 2009). There are no significant population reductions reported in other parts of its range. It occurs in number of marine protected areas in parts of its distribution and is therefore listed as Least Concern. Geographic Range
Range Description:Acanthurus lineatus is widespread in the Indo-Pacific from the east coast of Africa to the Society Islands, Marquesas Islands, and Tuamotu Archipelago. There were two records from the Hawaiian Islands: from the southern end of the island of Hawaii and from Oahu; these are probably waifs (Randall 2001a).Countries:Native:American Samoa (American Samoa); Australia; Bangladesh; British Indian Ocean Territory; Brunei Darussalam; Christmas Island; Cocos (Keeling) Islands; Comoros; Cook Islands; Disputed Territory (Paracel Is., Spratly Is.); Fiji; French Polynesia; French Southern Territories (Mozambique Channel Is.); Guam; India (Andaman Is., Nicobar Is.); Indonesia; Japan; Kenya; Kiribati (Gilbert Is., Kiribati Line Is., Phoenix Is.); Madagascar; Malaysia; Maldives; Marshall Islands; Mauritius; Mayotte; Micronesia, Federated States of ; Mozambique; Myanmar; Nauru; New Caledonia; Niue; Northern Mariana Islands; Palau; Papua New Guinea; Philippines; Réunion; Samoa; Seychelles; Singapore; Solomon Islands; Somalia; South Africa; Sri Lanka; Taiwan, Province of China; Tanzania, United Republic of; Thailand; Timor-Leste; Tokelau; Tonga; Tuvalu; United States Minor Outlying Islands (Howland-Baker Is., US Line Is., Wake Is.); Vanuatu; Viet Nam; Wallis and Futuna; YemenFAO Marine Fishing Areas:Native:Indian Ocean – eastern; Indian Ocean – western; Pacific – eastern central; Pacific – northwest; Pacific – southwest; Pacific – western centralRange Map:Click here to open the map viewer and explore range.
In Fagatale Bay, American Samoa, A. lineatus is a dominant species on the reef slope (Green et al. 1999). It was the eighth most dominant species in Tutuila, Aunuu, and Taema Banks, American Samoa, contributing 2.7% of total fish biomass and 1.9% of numerical abundance (Sabater and Tofaeono 2006). It is moderately common in Calamianes Islands, Puerto Princesa and San Vicente, Philippines, Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea and Raja Ampat, Indonesia where it is usually in shallow surge-affected areas (Werner and Allen 2000; Palawan Council for Sustainable Development unpub. data; Allen 2003, 2003b). At Moorea, French Polynesia, SPOT satellite images allowed estimation of the surface area of fringing reef (1,076 ha), barrier reef (3,788 ha) and outer slop (493 ha). A total of 30,563 individuals were recorded in this area in fish visual surveys conducted from 1990-1993 (Lecchini et al. 2006).Visual census surveys of the Iboih coast, Weh Island, Indonesia, recorded fish densities of 19 individuals/750 m2 at Pantai sirkui, 13 individuals/750 m2 at Teupin Layeu and 9 individuals/750 m2 at Teluk Pelabuhan (Faculty of Mathematic and Natural Science 2007). It occurs in high densities on coral reefs - 0.4 fish/m2 - in American Samoa (Craig 1996).In American Samoa, 2007 commercial landings for Acanthurids totalled 10,338 lbs with an estimated value of $23, 586 USD (Department of Marine and Wildlife Resources and the Western Pacific Fishery Information Network 2009). From July 1990 through to June 1991, landings of Acanthurids (surgeonfish) totalled 13,431 lbs, or 9% of the total catch. This species and A. xanthopterus comprised 82% of the total Acanthurid catch. A. linetaus were caught almost exclusively by divers, and 78% of the catch was landed at night. From July 1990 through to June 1991, 4,054 lbs were landed in the study areas (Ponwith 1991). In 1994, A. lineatus ranked 2nd among all species harvested in small-scale fisheries in American Samoa. It accounted for 10% of the total catch of 295 tons (Department of Marine and Wildlife Resources unpub. data Pago-Pago, American Samoa). A. lineatus accounted for 39% by weight of artisanal catches and only 1-3% of subsistence catches (Craig et al. 1997). In the outer islands of American Samoa, the annual harvest of 37.5 metric tonnes (mt) (82,584 lb) of a small-scale subsistence fishery consisted of a diverse array of coral reef fishes and invertebrates. Of the reef-associated catch of 21.4 mt, A. lineatus accounted for 24% of the catch (Craig 2008). In Guam it is the third most abundant surgeonfish in terms of landing. The numbers increased throughout the 1990s, which corresponded with an increase in spearfishing. Densities of this species are considerably lower outside of marine reserves and in areas of high exploitation. In Pohnpei, it is 15% of the total Acanthurid landing (Rhodes et al. 2008). This species makes up 5% of the total catch in Saipan for 2009 (P. Houk unpub. data). In the central Philippines, density and biomass of herbivorous fish in reserves had positive relationships with duration of reserve protection. Acanthuridae and Labridae (parrotfishes) were the major families that increased in biomass inside reserves with duration of reserve protection. Herbivore biomass inside reserves compared to fished sites was on average 1.4, 4.8 and 8.1 times higher at 0.5 to 4, 5 to 7 and 8 to 11 years of protection, respectively. For A. lineatus, fished site mean biomass was recorded at 0.01 kg per 500 m2 while mean biomass recorded in 4 reserves were 0.13, 0.91 (5 to 7 years of protection), 1.67 and 19.59 (8 to 11 years of protection) (Stockwell et al. 2009). In Kenya, landings during 1978-2001 for families that are less important in commercial catches (e.g., scarinae and Acanthuridae) showed rising catches (1978-1984) followed by a general decline during the 1990s, but the landings for the scarinae showed a rising trend in recent years (Kaunda-Arara et al. 2003). Population Trend:
Acanthurus lineatus inhabits inshore coral reefs or rocky substrata exposed to wave action. It is strongly site-attached (Craig et al. 1997). It is most frequently encountered on shallow reef flats (Brown and Allen 2008). It is an aggressive territorial fish. It grazes on algal turfs mainly on thallate and filamentous red and green algae (Choat et al. 2002, 2004). It maintains feeding territories in shallow waters during the daytime but spends nights in deeper-water crevices where it is harvested by fishermen (Craig et al. 1997). Craig (1996) found that territorial and non-territorial A. lineatus where different individuals, with territorial fish being significantly larger. Growth It shows rapid growth for the first three to four years of life. Beyond four years, growth declines sharply; resulting in extended periods of asymptotic growth. Most of the growth occurs within the first 10% of their lifespan regardless of their location (Mutz 2006). The maximum number of annuli recorded for this species was 46 (Choat and Axe 1996). Maximum age was 42 years (Choat and Robertson 2002). On Great Barrier Reef, Australia (GBR), the mean maximum age is 32 years, on American Samoa is 11 yrs and on Marquesas is 14 yrs. The maximum age decreases moving eastwards (Mutz 2006). Mutz (2006) investigated the pattern of demographic variation along a longitudinal scale across the South Pacific Ocean. The variation from west to east indicated locality specific variation rather than a general environmental trend among study sites. The population with the shortest lifespan was at American Samoa with a mean maximum age of 11 years, while the population at Lizard Island lived longest reaching the mean maximum age of 32 years. Populations at Moorea, French Polynesia and Lizard Island attained maximum ages of 43 and 42 years, respectively. Reproduction The sexes are separate among the acanthurids (Reeson 1983). Acanthurids do not display obvious sexual dimorphism, males assume courtship colours (J.H. Choat pers. comm. 2010). It spawns year-round but primarily during the austral summer (October-February) in American Samoa (Craig et al. 1997). This species has been observed in early morning group spawning in Palau and Guam (Johannes 1981, Robertson 1983, J. McIlwain pers. comm. 2010) and late afternoon group spawning at Escape Reef, Great Barrier Reef (Robertson 1983). It is likely to form resident spawning aggregations (Domeier and Colin 1997). Pair spawning (Robertson 1983) and non-sex-specific color changes associated with spawning (Johannes 1981) have also been observed. In Palau, it was observed to spawn prior to the full moon and during the new moon from February-April. In Guam it was observed to spawn 3 days before the full moon in March-April on the outgoing tide (J. McIlwain pers. comm. 2010). In the GBR it spawns in December (Johannes 1981, Robertson 1983). Size at sexual maturity is 160 mm (Choat and Robertson 2002a). Larvae are transported through pelagic waters while adults live sedentary lives associated with the reef (Robertson 1983). It has a long pelagic larval stage (Randall 2005). Systems:
There were significant reductions in biomass between fished and protected areas reported in the Philippines (Stockwell et al. 2009). In American Samoa, indicators of fishing pressure did not point to significant overfishing over a 9-year period (Craig et al. 1997). The status of reef fisheries in American Samoa has commonly been reported as over-exploited, however, comparing patterns and trends from fishery independent surveys with fishery-dependent data showed a significant decline in shoreline fishing effort and a non-significant decrease in boat-based effort, resulting in constant catch landings and catch-per-unit effort. Concurrent with the decline in fishing effort and constant catch landing was an increase in fish abundance and biomass for the targeted families. The decrease in fishing pressure occurred during a period of rapid population growth, indicating non-dependence of the general population on fishing, reflecting the change in the social and economic dynamics within the territory (Sabater and Carroll 2009).Craig et al. (2008) showed that the current harvests of the subsistence fishery in outer islands of American Samoa is similar to those in historic and prehistoric periods, indicating that the fishery is harvested at a sustainable level.Surgeonfishes show varying degrees of habitat preference and utilization of coral reef habitats, with some species spending the majority of their life stages on coral reef while others primarily utilize seagrass beds, mangroves, algal beds, and /or rocky reefs. The majority of surgeonfishes are exclusively found on coral reef habitat, and of these, approximately 80% are experiencing a greater than 30% loss of coral reef area and degradation of coral reef habitat quality across their distributions. However, more research is needed to understand the long-term effects of coral reef habitat loss and degradation on these species' populations. Widespread coral reef loss and declining habitat conditions are particularly worrying for species that recruit into areas with live coral cover, especially as studies have shown that protection of pristine habitats facilitate the persistence of adult populations in species that have spatially separated adult and juvenile habitats (Comeros-Raynal et al. 2012).
There are no species-specific conservation measures in place for this species. Its distribution overlaps several marine protected areas in parts of its range. In American Samoa, SCUBA fishery has been banned since 2001 by Executive Order and subsequently in 2002 by regulation (Green 2003). Night spearfishing has been banned as well (J.H. Choat pers. comm. 2010). In Queensland, Australia, there is a recreational catch limit of 5 per species and a minimum size limit of 25 cm (Department of Primary Industries accessed 8 April 2010).

Professor receives MacDowell Colony Fellowship
March 30th, 2010 Jean Harper, associate professor of English, was recently awarded a fellowship to the MacDowell Colony located in Peterborough, New Hampshire. Harper will reside at the artists’ colony for six weeks, beginning in August into September. While at the MacDowell Colony, Harper plans to work on her second book, Horses and Divorces, which explores the relationship between horses and women. The book is part memoir, and part literary journalism.
“I am thrilled to receive this fellowship to go to MacDowell; not only is this a gift of time, which every writer deeply appreciates, but it is also an opportunity to work in the inspiring company of some of the best writers and artists in the country, if not the world.”
Mary Fell, English department chair and herself a writer, stated, “Jean’s fellowship from MacDowell not only honors her excellent writing, but it puts her in a league with some of this country’s finest writers, past and present. We are proud of Jean’s accomplishment!”
By receiving the fellowship, Harper will join over 6,000 artists who have resided at the peaceful farmland retreat for the purpose of further developing their creativity. The Colony was founded in 1907 by the original owners of the property, Edward MacDowell, a composer, and pianist Marian MacDowell. According to the MacDowell Colony, the artists retreat is now the nation’s leading artist colony providing “a nurturing environment to creative individuals of the highest talent an inspiring environment in which they can produce enduring works of the imagination.”
The Colony provides artists individual studios to continue to develop their talents and works. The Colony annually hosts about 250 national and international artists including writers, playwrights, visual artists, filmmakers, composers, interdisciplinary artists, and architects.

Indiana is in its 113th season of college basketball and will host Indiana Wesleyan in its lone public exhibition game for the 2012-13 season. For the first time since the 1979-80 preseason and just for the third time in school history (1975-76), the Indiana men's basketball team will start the season as the top ranked team in the country. Indiana was also picked by the Big Ten media to win the conference championship.
The Hoosiers return the same starting lineup they finished their season with last year. The group helped lead IU to a 27-9 record as they earned the program's first trip to the Sweet 16 since 2002 and just the second berth in the round of 16 since 1995. Indiana was ranked 16th by the Associated Press and 13th in the final USA Today/Coaches poll. Using the formula on how the NCAA ranks a teams' improvement from one year to the next, IU had a 15 1/2-game improvement in the standings from 2010-11, the seventh largest in NCAA history. The Hoosiers also rank 11th with 1,690 wins all-time.
Indiana Wesleyan returns four starters from a year ago and begins the season ranked No. 4 in the NAIA Division II men's basketball poll. Senior forward Patrick Hopkins is back after averaging 14.8 points and 8.7 rebounds. Junior guard Jordan Weidner also averaged 14.8 points. They won their season opener, 91-74, last night at home against St. Xavier (Ill.).
Indiana named Tom Crean as its 28th men's basketball coach on April 2, 2008, and he is in his fifth year with the Hoosiers. He is 245-171 all-time as a head coach and has six wins over nationally ranked foes in the last two seasons. Crean was named National Coach of the Year by ESPN's Jason King, and Big Ten Coach of the Year by the Sporting News and the BTN's Tom Dienhart. He was also the midseason winner of the Jim Phelan Award which is the National Coach of the Year by Collegeinsider.com. SI.com also selected him as the Midseason Coach of the Year.
Greg Tonagel is in his eighth season as the head coach of the Wildcats and has a 179-62 record. Last year, IWU advanced to the NAIA Division II Tournament and lost in the first round, posting a 21-12 record.
With the exception of four games in Assembly Hall during the Holiday Season (Ball State, Mt. St. Mary's, Florida Atlantic and Jacksonville), each IU home men's basketball game will be sold out. IU students purchased 12,441 tickets to be divided each game among 7,800 of their peers. That is a 300 percent increase over student sales from the 2008-09 season. Fans who are interested in coming to the above mentioned four-game Mini Series, may purchase the Coke Four Pack which includes four tickets, four hotdogs, four popcorns and four Cokes for $20 per person. For more information contact the IU Athletics Ticket Office at 866-IUSPORTS (487-7678).
HOOSIER HYSTERIA
Interest in the IU Basketball program was at a fever pitch on Saturday, Oct. 20, when the program held its annual Hoosier Hysteria presented by Smithville. In 90 minutes after opening doors, all 17,472 seats were taken and thousands of fans were turned away from the Assembly Hall doors.
LIFE AT NO.1
The Hoosier's current ranking marks the first time since the final regular season poll in 1993 that IU is ranked as the top program in the land. This will be the 45th week in school history, tying Cincinnati, as the No. 1 team in the country in the AP Poll. Printer-friendly format

Makeing dungeon system should I use a 2d array
So I've started my Text based RPG game however my room system is lacking depth. In basic I create a room object and add it to ArrayList I was looking into how to make a 2d array, but seems like that not an option. However I'm unsure how I can make an array that holds objects other then ArrayList. Is my logic wrong and I'm looking at it wrong. Sorry if this seems lacking I'm still pretty new at this.

Re: Makeing dungeon system should I use a 2d array
?_? what do you mean it isn't possible to do a 2d array? 2d arrays are done as : 1 private Array[][] map; or 1 private Array Money[][]; (can also be public instead of private, and various other things)the '[]' doubled up make it into a 2d array, if there were 3, then it would be 3d array (there isn't a limit, but please note that the more dimensions it has, the more memory and processor usage it takes up)Anyway, basically the map coding is pretty much the same for 2d games AND text based games, (if you actually mean the map when you say 'room object'. sorry, but there are dozens of things that 'room object' could mean, i'm assuming you mean a 2d text map with # as walls and things like that since you want to know about 2d arrays)If that's not what you mean, then could you give us more information? (Ps. don't worry about being new, so long as you know the basics of java, we can help)And don't worry abou
Your question is pretty confusing. You're "unsure how make an array that holds objects other then ArrayList?" What? Why is a 2d array not an option?What do you mean by "lacking depth"? 2d games don't use depth...
Okay sorry that the question is so confusing. I'm just really unsure and confused myself. My Room object repersents whats inside the current room ie. enemies to encounter, and items to find, I'm also considering it holding events but this isn't implmented yet.I then have another object called -_- locationObject which holds an arraylist of the rooms. current progrssion in the game is done by adding(or subtracting) one to a variable called currentRoom and then getting the object at the index inside the arraylist in the location object. I realize 2D arrays can be done with things like String[][] however I'm unsure how to use it to create a map that the player can move around in beyound going back and forth. When I say lacking depth I'm refering to the fact you can only go from room 1, to room 2, to room3, and back they is no left or west and east from currentRoom.I have atleast a basic understanding of java.I'm unsure where the problem is in my logic. Again thank-you for your help. sproingie
Don't use arrays for this stuff, use collections like List, which will let you do far more than arrays. If you need an extra dimension, use a List of Lists, and also look at things like Map while you're at it.Arrays do have their uses, but not in a text-based game.

Again thank-you for your help. you need to set 2 variables. have 1 stand for the characters y position, and 1 for the x position.now do something like this (note that this is not an actual code, it's just an outline of what you need to do):1 2 3 4 5 6 if buttonup true: check if maparray[x][y+1] has something in it(should return a true or false) if false: maparray[x][y] = blank space; y++; maparray[x][y] = character symble;basically, you need to do that for each direction. (if down it should be y-1 and y--, if left it should be x-1 and x--, and if right it should be x +1 and x++)there you go, you now have your character and map working together in perfect harmony. now you basically have to do the same for each mob, (basically, it's a for loop that checks if the slot is taken up by a mob, if it is, then an if statement to see if the player is near by, then if the player IS then you need to do the attack. if it's not, then either randomly move 1 (again, check if the mob can actually move).basically, that's it. it's really easy and it's also the 'begginers programming to rpgs'. there are actually a LOT of online tutorials that will tell you how to code every single line. though not all use 2d arrays or 2d char arrays. anyway, here is one of the youtube tutorials i found in my favs, (though i have no idea if it uses arrays or not):http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB062D4D37FECD5A6
Yeah an array is appropriate for the actual map of a roguelike where all you need is direct access to 2d locations and aren't going to go inserting, deleting, searching, copying into other collections, and so forth. But in this thread I'm reading about discrete rooms and exits and thinking more "MUD" than "Roguelike", and there doesn't seem to be much use for arrays there. ArrayLists, sure, but that's just an implementation detail.
@TrinityGamer Thank-you for the insight. I like the sound of a rougelike game and I think that the story idea behind the game would probably fit this type of game. However I'm not sure the difference fully is. The game has three option at any point when not in a fight or event. Go, Search, and rest. Go I would like to use to move the player from room to room however all it does is get the next room. If I choose to use the method you detail with out a drawn map but how would I pull up the next room with it. I do like the idea of the rouge like game but I would like to just finish what I have. At this moment rooms are like containers that hold enemies items and events. I don't know if thats bad practice or something. I obviously am just going to have to dive into and play with these things.@sproingieI was trying to make a map like ######## # just to start but each room is a object so I was calling them by getting there index and changing what index was being referenced. however I was unsure how to code the getting and finding out if there was a room to the right. Would I assign each with a XY value and then test to see if the player is next to that value? and then test each of the objects in the arraylist (im reading the tut on collection and colletion api right now) to see if they have the same value?Sorry if any of these question are confusing I'm still pretty fresh in the all this. Again Thank-you for the help

When I'm making a tilemap, I use a 1d array:1 private int[] tiles = new int[width * height]This only works with int - int relations.For a real key - value array I'd use an ArrayList

Murder of Civilians Puts Further Strain on U.S-Afghan Relations
By: Jack Kenny 03/13/2012 Print
A U.S. Army staff sergeant is in military custody following a gruesome shooting spree in rural villages of Afghanistan Sunday that killed at least 16 civilians, nine of them children. The suspect is believed to have carried out the shootings alone before surrendering to military authorities, the New York Times reported. "The initial reporting that we have at this time indicates there was one shooter, and we have one man in custody," said Lt. Col. Jimmie Cummings, a NATO spokesman.
The sergeant reportedly walked a mile from his base into the Panjwai district of Kandahar Province, where residents of three villages described the killer going from door to door and breaking into three houses. He eventually gathered 11 bodies, including four girls under the age of six, and set fire to them, they said. Afghan President Hamid Karzai condemned the killings as an "inhuman and intentional act" and issued a statement demanding justice. Both President Obama and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta called the President to express condolences and promise thorough investigations. "This incident is tragic and shocking, and does not represent the exceptional character of our military and the respect that the United States has for the people of Afghanistan," Obama said in a White House statement.
