There was a real diplomatic blowup in the Knesset last week, when Naftali Bennett led a walkout of the chamber by his HaBayit
HaYehudi party during a speech by European Union Parliamentary President Martin Schulz. The comment Schulz made that elicited his response was this: "A Palestinian youth asked me why an Israeli can use 70 cubic liters of water and a Palestinian just 17. I haven't checked the data. I'm asking you if this is correct."
Is this just another example of Israeli hyper-sensitivity and over-reaction? In fact, it is not. At first glance, this seems like a foreign leader framing a question, one that seems to be regarding an issue that makes Israel look no worse than frequent statements about settlements and foot-dragging on the peace process. It actually touches on an issue that is at the very heart of the Israel-Palestine conflict, but that is too often overlooked. That issue is water. Continue reading

Saint Laurent Spring 2013 Campaign
Wide brimmed hats = superhot accessory in the new year ahead. Trend or not, I've always loved bigger hats (on others!), but I especially like the combo seen in Saint Laurent 's SS13, worn with slim tailored silhouettes and leather. Though I'm not much of a "hatty" person myself I might be tempted to give it ago, and if not I hope to spot some of you in it.

What support is available?
English Teacher
Hi Everyone,
I am new to the forums and I am in need of some advice. This will be my third year teaching ESL and this year a student with severe autism has tested into the program. Has anyone else had this type of situation?
What support is available?
I have a student with Asperger's in one of my private classes. I find that he picks up words he's interested in very quickly. It's hard to keep his attention... he goes off in his own world very easily. He hates drawing and colouring and loves mathematical things, like telling the time.
It can be difficult in a class with others, as he is quite time demanding, but he's a good kid and picks up English very quickly!
Each child is individual though, and so is the way autism effects them.
I've never taught an autistic child but have plenty of contact with them in my personal life, and while you will have lots of challenges I hope you find it very rewarding too. It's actually Autism Awareness month here in the UK so there's plenty of material out there to help you at the moment!
As kirstyjay says, every autistic child is individual, no less so than any other child, but in general some basic tips include things like keeping strictly to a pre-established routine (so the child feels secure and knows what to expect) and cutting back on the "decorative" elements in your classroom so that only images relevant to the lesson are being displayed. Keep distractions and noise (visual and aural) to a minimum if possible.
Autistic children often need more processing time than others - so don't lose patience if they don't understand a concept. Take a break, do something else for a while and then return to the original concept and you will often find they now understand it very well.
Symbols and simple images representing concepts work very well with most autistic children, and since they are also invaluable in an ESL classroom, they're certainly something to use plenty of! Some children with autism respond well to drama and role play activities to learn social skills, and again I would imagine this could work well in an ESL setting.
Best of luck with your teaching :)
Thank you all for your valuable input. It is very hard because he is in Kindergarten, and is using a lot of echolalic speech. He does pick up vocabulary very quickly. My problem lies in the state testing for ESL that the state of New York gives every year. He can answer simple yes or no questions, but when it comes to more open ended questions (which is what the state test asks) he is just not there yet. An example of a speaking question might be to finish the sentence (and it would have a picture): The girl goes to the store.... He would not be able to answer this, he only repeats. He can read a book, but if you ask what the boy did he cannot tell you. Maybe in time he can, but I don't understand how to get him there. He is in a self-contained classroom with other students that are labeled as having disabilities, but they are mainly behavior/emotional issues.
The echolalic speech is a good thing because it means he is making some developmental progress in the area of speech, but besides vocabulary and role playing, I'm not sure what else I can be doing.
I cannot offer any help at all with your situation, I am afraid.
All I can do is to wish you luck, and say that if you find yourself feeling guilty about your inability to help this child, stop! Working with autistic children is difficult for those with specialist training and some experience. It seems to me that you have been dumped in a situation which is unfair to both you and the child.
I think that Tullia has given some useful suggestions. I hope they help. If they don't, don't blame yourself.
Very best wishes
Teaching any child is a challenge and responsibility. No matter how professional you are at developmental psychology, today's young learners will guarantee you a lot of headache.
Regarding autism, it might help to know that certain features like fear of changes, difficulties in dealing with others, repetitive behaviour and a lot of others are becoming quite common nowadays, common among those who have never been diagnosed with autism.
To cut it short, there are certain golden rules which usually help in both cases:
- autism and autocracy never match - there is no sense in forcing the boy into any activity/task as he either has his own point of view or just doesn't follow you. A good alternative could be to offer him a choice, for example the task for the whole group and/or something special for him like writing. Most of them find virtually any writing, even most meaningless, quite comfortable.
- it usually helps to avoid eye contact. It might look ridiculous to stare at the ceiling while talking to the child, yet in this case he may be more willing to reply.
- any 1-to-1 contact should be thoughtfully organised. It could be worthwhile experimenting with the distance, voice volume and body movements. The point is to attract his attention without threatening, give him enough elbow room to digest the information and enough time to come up with the answer. With small children a teddy bear or any other toy could play the role of an interpreter. Indeed, hiding behind a toy makes speaking much more comfortable and consequently easier.
- in ESL class pair work is probably the only possible way to success, but it's a matter of life and death to find a suitable partner. Preferably, it is somebody easy-going, not extremely competitive and even-tempered. Clearly, it's a matter of luck. Should you find one, make sure you provide the boy in question with straightforward instructions and supportive prompts.
There is a lot more about autistic pupils, but the core approach is to let them learn at their own pace. Given enough time, many of them manage to cope with their problems, acquire a thorough knowledge and develop good skills.
ps. Being positive and optimistic no matter what is usually a good way to deal with any problem children. Best of luck, if there are any questions just ask

Just in time for Cinco de Mayo, I'm bringing you a recipe that's simple and extremely tasty! Not to mention, pretty healthy given the ingredients.
The basic idea is that small (6-7″ across) flour tortillas are wedged between cups on an upside-down muffin tin and filled with dried beans (to weigh them down). The tortillas are baked for a handful of minutes and BOOM, perfectly crispy and shapely tostada bowls. No oil, lard, or complex equipment necessary!

TLC Shares the Fast-Paced Lives of "NASCAR WIVES"
January 9, 2009
(Los Angeles, Ca.) Each week, millions of people get on track with NASCAR, following the high-speed drama of America's most popular form of racing. TLC takes these fans inside the rarely seen world of the families racing week to week with the premiere of NASCAR WIVES on Saturday, January 24, 2009 at 10 PM ET, following the network's broadcast of the 2009 MISS AMERICA PAGEANT. Debuting as a one-hour special, NASCAR WIVES will return as a series in late Spring 2009.
NASCAR, the most popular spectator sport in the United States, is known for its intense competition and high-stakes excitement. The one-hour special NASCAR WIVES drives home the sport's energy, thrills, disappointments and constant challenges by following women balancing their own busy lives with the demands of helping their husbands compete in a 200 mph thrilling race where the cars can collide and occasionally plow into the retaining walls.
"Viewers turn to TLC for an insider's view into uncommon lives, and NASCAR WIVES will give an unprecedented look at what happens on and off the track," explains Eileen O'Neill, president of TLC. "NASCAR is a remarkable and respected brand to partner with, and we look forward to exploring both the heart and adrenaline that keeps its fans � 40% of which are female � coming back for more." Some of the women profiled in NASCAR WIVES include:
Kelley Earnhardt � A part of racing royalty, Kelley manages the career of her brother, Dale Earnhardt Jr., NASCAR's most popular driver, and his business JR Motorsports, while also raising her two young daughters.
Delana Harvick � A successful, no-nonsense businesswomen who lives racing 24/7, Delana is co-owner in KHI Racing with her husband Kevin, who has 11 career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series wins, including the 2007 Daytona 500.
Shana Mayfield � Returning to Clemson University to finish her degree while adjusting to the reality that husband Jeremy, a 15-year NASCAR Sprint Cup Series veteran, might see a season without racing.
Angie Skinner � Married to Mike, who competes in NASCAR's top three national series, Angie is an author, TV/radio personality, and her husband's business manager. A veteran racing wife, Angie has two stepsons.
"NASCAR is a family sport and a traveling road show, with a tight knit group of competitors barnstorming the U.S.," said Jay Abraham, Chief Operating Officer, NASCAR Media Group. "Throughout a 10-month season, the drivers' wives are the glue holding together each racing family. They are strong and independent women with their own ambitions and goals who maintain their individual identities while supporting their highly visible husbands. NASCAR Wives provides an honest and emotional peek into their experience with our sport."
NASCAR, celebrating 60 years in 2008, holds 17 of the top 20 highest-attended sporting events in the U.S., and is the No. 2-rated regular season sport on television. NASCAR races are broadcast in more than 150 countries and in more than 30 languages. NASCAR sanctions more than 1,200 races at 100 tracks in more than 30 U.S. states, Canada and Mexico, and consists of three national series (the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, NASCAR Nationwide Series, and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series), four regional series, and one local grassroots series, as well as two international series.

Just a short drive on the 405 will tell you how much Porsche values the Southern California market. So it's fitting the automaker chose the Los Angeles Auto Show to unveil the 2014 Cayman.
The rear-wheel-drive coupe is essentially a closed-roof version of the Boxster convertible that Porsche put on sale earlier this year. It will be available in two forms, the base Cayman and the faster Cayman S.
The base model has the Boxtser's 2.7-liter, direct-injected flat six-cylinder engine. But it's been tweaked in the Cayman to make 275 horsepower and 213 pound-feet of torque. Its top speed is 165 mph.
The spicier Cayman S shares an engine with the Boxster S and the base Porsche 911 Carrera. It's a direct-injected 3.4-liter flat six, and in this setting it makes 325 horsepower and 272 pound-feet of torque. This model tops out at 175 mph.
Both Caymans come standard with a six-speed manual transmission; the hyper-quick PDK seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual will be optional.
The Cayman will do 0-60 mph in 5.4 seconds with the manual and 5.3 seconds with the PDK, according to Porsche. Those times drop to 4.7 seconds and 4.6 seconds, respectively, for the Cayman S.
Full coverage: 2012 L.A. Auto Show
An optional sport-chrono package is available. On models with the PDK, it will drop the acceleration times by another .1 second on the Cayman and .2 seconds on the Cayman S.
Curb weight drops by as much as 60 pounds versus the outgoing Cayman, owing to liberal use of aluminum.
As with the latest versions of the 911 and the Boxster, fuel efficiency concerns have forced a switch to an electro-mechanical steering system and the addition of a start-stop function. The options help produce 32 miles per gallon on the highway in the PDK-optioned car.
Pricing hasn't been announced, but based on the current Boxster's asking price, budget at least $54,000 for the base Cayman (including destination) and $64,000 for the Cayman S. Save up even more if you want any of the aforementioned options; as we found when we tested the Boxster recently, the car can get pricey in a hurry.
The 2014 Cayman and Cayman S will go on sale in early spring 2013.

Key Points:
- Should NZ have paid to ensure the Hobbit films were made here?
The first film in the trilogy, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, has earned $US959 million ($1.15 billion) worldwide, a third of this in the United States.
The National-led Government controversially changed employment laws and granted tax breaks amounting to $NZ67 million to Warners in 2010 after director Sir Peter Jackson warned The Hobbit franchise could be moved to countries where it was cheaper to film.
A majority of New Zealanders polled by the Herald back the $67 million in tax breaks given to the producers of The Hobbit by the Government - but only if the films return more than that to the local economy.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- USA Network says it has renewed its original drama series "Royal Pains," "White Collar" and "Covert Affairs" for additional seasons.
The announcement was made Tuesday by Chris McCumber and Jeff Wachtel, the cable network's co-presidents.
"All three of these series have found ways to stay creatively fresh and culturally relevant," McCumber and Wachtel said in a statement. "In an increasingly competitive landscape, these series got new season pickups the old-fashioned way -- they earned it."
"Royal Pains" received a 26-episode pickup across two additional seasons, with Season 5 of the Universal Cable Productions series commencing in New York in 2013. It is about a disgraced New York City physician, played by Mark Feuerstein, who reinvents himself as the Hamptons' hot new doctor-on-demand to the rich and famous.
"White Collar" from Fox Television Studios, which films in and around New York City, received a 16-episode pickup for Season 5, to begin shooting next year. Matt Bomer and Tim DeKay headline the show about a charming con artist and straightforward FBI agent who team up to capture elusive white-collar criminals.
The Toronto-based CIA thriller "Covert Affairs" from Universal Cable Productions received a 16-episode pickup for Season 4. It stars Piper Perabo, Christopher Gorham, Kari Matchett and Peter Gallagher.

The other day I was trying to install ghc-core, which requires pcre.
I had previously installed macports as this allows you to install a variety of unix applications and tools. Unfortunately, I just could not get it to work. After some fiddling with paths to try to get it to find the macports installed libraries (after having port installed pcre), I came up with the following incantation:
LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/opt/local/lib sudo cabal install --extra-lib-dirs=/opt/local/lib --extra-include-dirs=/opt/local/include ghc-core
However, this unfortunately did not work:
Linking dist/build/ghc-core/ghc-core ...
Undefined symbols:
"_iconv_open", referenced from:
_hs_iconv_open in libHSbase-22.214.171.124.a(iconv.o)
"_iconv_close", referenced from:

ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
ghc-core-0.5.4 failed during the building phase.
After some Googling, I was finally able to find the issue
So I decided to completely uninstall macports.
As my friend put it on IRC:
kormat> unix on osx is a ghetto
Fortunately, there is an alternative to macports: Homebrew.
It was a breeze to install:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://gist.github.com/raw/323731/install_homebrew.rb)"
sudo brew install pcre
After that, cabal installing ghc-core worked as expected =)

Early-stage Maryland biotechnology companies and investors must apply by Friday to be considered for the first-round of up to $10 million in state biotechnology investment tax credits, the state department of Business and Economic Development said Wednesday.
Credits for fiscal year 2014 are available through the Maryland Biotechnology Investment Incentive Tax Credit program, which promotes private investment in biotechnology companies. Recipients get a refundable tax credit of 50 percent of a investment amounts of $25,000 to $500,000 per investor. Investors do not have to be from Maryland.
Since the program was first funded in fiscal 2007, it has sparked investment of more than $90 million in Maryland biotech companies, with more than 60 companies using the program. The program is overseen by the BioMaryland Center, an office within the state's economic development arm.
An online system for the tax credits was put in place three years ago to make the process more efficient. Registrations are taken on a first-come, first-served basis. Investors will be told after 30 days if their investment is eligible.

I was asked to create a bio video several weeks back, and I immediately knew I didn't want to do another interview-type video. Don't get me wrong, interviews are great and have their place, but this felt like a great opportunity to do something creative and show people a side of me often only expressed through my images of other people. I think this short film is a good glimpse into my personality and how I think about life and work. Sometimes words just aren't enough, at least for us visual types. So think of this as a creative bio/promo, rather than a literal account of my work and life. I hope you enjoy it.
I posted several of production stills if you want a behind the scenes look at this video also.

Even though I'm not at RootsTech, I've been watching/listening to some of the presentations. I printed off the schedule of streamed sessions, but I forgot that the keynote addresses were also available to watch.
So, on Thursday, I was a little late checking in. But I was able to go back and listen to the keynote addresses during the "lunch" break. That's really nice. Ree Drummond was really fun to listen to. I'm not sure I want to blog about my family now, but I wish I had thought about that when me children were younger and at home. Oh, yes. That was before computers and blogging, etc. Well, I was definitely planning on tuning in early enough on Friday morning.
I loved Tammy Hepps presentation on working from home. Unfortunately I missed some of Ron Tanner's talk on FamilySearch Family Tree. I'll check that one out again, once the 2014 sessions are available. The DNA talk was "Intro to DNA for Genealogists" by James Rader. I was quite confused with this one. And I felt that he wasn't prepared to speak for the time period, since he kept checking the time and then deciding whether or not to continue or not. I started watching the "Genealogy in the Cloud" but then household stuff got in the way. I'll definitely check that one out later.
Friday, I was much better at tuning in on time, but still a little late. The keynote addresses were fantastic, in my opinion. I loved Judy Russell's comment about truth and a good story. I went back to listen to that part to make sure I had her exact words. I'm hoping that she'll let me use them in a couple of presentations I'm going to be making soon.
I missed the morning streamed session but watched Lisa Alzo. I need to watch that one again, because I wasn't aware of some of the social media options she mentioned. I understand blogs and facebook, and twitter, a little. But there's SO... much more. Then, I was really enjoying Crista Cowen's talk. BUT, the phone rang. I muted the talk and spent a great hour talking with my daughter-in-law, knowing that I could back up and hear Crista's talk after the phone call. No such luck. The feed stopped working. I refreshed, shut the computer off and started again, changed from IE to Firefox and back. Nothing worked. Well, that's another one to go on my list for later.
Overall it was a good two days, with lots of interesting info. I did post on facebook, asking if a company was recording any of the other presentations so that I could purchase them later. Unfortunately, I just kept getting the response that the live-streamed ones will be available later. That wasn't what I meant, but that's OK. I'll contact someone next week and ask. What I was hoping for was that recordings (video or audio only) of other speakers would be available for purchase since I can get them at SCGS's Jamboree, FGS and NGS.
I'm looking forward to Saturday's talks, although I'll probably miss the first one (things to do in my non-genealogy life).
I'm hoping that all of you who have been reading my rambles check out the RootsTech.com web site and watch the sessions, once they are recorded for 2014. Of course, if you missed any of the 2013 talks, it appears that they are still available.

As most of us know who deal with the digital design world, for many years, all of the major CAD vendors have been stressing the vital importance of managing the design and manufacturing data created using their software. Surprisingly though, even after all of the talk of imminent disaster, still relatively few design and manufacturing companies, especially SMBs, have a formal PDM system of any type in place beyond Windows Explorer and Excel.
Some of the reasons we hear for PDM not being deployed include the perceptions (and experiences) that PDM is time consuming and expensive to implement. Also, some companies are perfectly happy with a sort of homegrown approach – Windows Explorer and Excel spreadsheets. In many cases these provide legitimate reasons for not implementing a formal PDM system, but times and circumstances are changing, and reasons for not implementing PDM are becoming weaker and weaker.
While most SMBs have made the transition from 2D to 3D, we have found that many of these same companies are finally exploring how to manage the mountains of CAD and associated product development and project data with a dedicated PDM system. These companies are seeking real solutions that are more capable and scalable than handling just files and folders with Excel spreadsheets and Windows Explorer. For example, PDM systems that connect the design department to the shop floor; will connect to other systems, such as MRP; and are scalable, so the system can grow as the company grows.
Because of the interest shown by our readers in PDM, we are in the process of exploring and evaluating several options for product and project management.
Keep in mind, these evaluations will be PDM systems only. Although the line between PDM and PLM systems is blurring, we'll focus and restrict these evaluations to PDM only.
Check out the following video that clearly delineates the differences between PDM and PLM.

Teacher professional development and classroom resources across the curriculum
Elizabeth Bishop
Elizabeth Bishop's poems were always admired for the purity and precision of her descriptions, and now readers have come to see how, even in her early poems, the attention to external detail reveals an internal emotional realm. Bishop's early works use surrealism and imagism to create a new reality in which she minimizes the reference to self in poetry, but her later poems become more autobiographical and more concerned with a quest for personal identity.
Hear Bishop describe an "egg of fire" disrupting ancient owls, a glistening armadillo, and a baby rabbit in "The Armadillo" at the Academy of American Poets' Bishop site. An essay/exhibit, "Life Studies: American Poetry from T. S. Eliot to Allen Ginsberg," explains why Bishop is considered "one of our most abundant poets."
Vassar College: Elizabeth Bishop
Read papers on Bishop's artistic influences, her search for an "earthly paradise," her political concerns, and other topics at this Vassar College site. The site also contains a brief biography, a thorough bibliography, an essay on Bishop, a register of Bishop papers at Vassar, and information about two Elizabeth Bishop societies.

Q&A with Junior Swimmer Neda Nguyen
Related Links
The latest in a long line of standout breaststrokers at UC San Diego, junior Neda Nguyen is coming off back-to-back years where she's earned All-American status by making her way into the finals of the 200 breaststroke (6th in 2010) at the NCAA Division II Championships and the consolation finals of the 100 breaststroke (10th). A Pleasanton, CA native out of Foothill High School, Nguyen is giving every indication that she's capable of matching, if not bettering those standards by the time 2011 is in the books. Head Coach Scott McGihon has noticed a change. "Neda's taken control of her racing and is leading by example in training," says McGihon. "At the end of the year, I expect that we'll look back and say this was her best season." With the regular season winding down and the conference championships just weeks away, Nguyen took time to talk about her progress, this year's Triton team and her hopes for the remainder of the year.
Q-How would you compare swimming to the other sports at UC San Diego and what type of personal characteristics are necessary to be successful in this program?
NGUYEN-Swimming is a lot different from other sports because we never really have an off-season. Although winter quarter is our main competition period, we train and compete throughout the fall, spring, and summer as well. You need to have a lot of dedication and love for the sport to continue doing it year after year, and you have to be patient in order to see all your hard work pay off.
Q-How would you describe your relationship with your sport?
NGUYEN-It's definitely a love/hate relationship. I really enjoy what I am doing, but it can get very difficult to get out of bed at 5:00 in the morning for another day of training. I think we all have those days where we don't even want to touch the water, but you have to have passion for the sport and confidence that it's all going to benefit you at the end of the season.
Q-As a freshman and sophomore, you were part teams that posted back-to-back third place finishes at the NCAA Division II Championships. How is this year's team different than those? What kind of expectations do you have, team-wise, in 2011?
NGUYEN-There are some really great new additions to the team, which makes the prospects of NCAA's really exciting for us this year. Everyone on the team has a pretty positive outlook on this season, which can make a huge difference in our confidence as a team. Alongside winning our conference championships, I believe that we can place higher than third this year at nationals in March.
Q-How has the addition of several new swimmers in your stroke groups influenced your training this season?
NGUYEN-It adds a lot of "healthy competition", or so Matthew Macedo (asst. coach) likes to call it. Having a larger stroke group to train with is a lot of fun, and really makes you push yourself more during practices since we have a lot of talented swimmers.
Q-In your primary event, the breaststroke, UCSD Women's Swimming has had quite a storied tradition. Are you aware of the history there and does it have any impact on you?
NGUYEN-Indeed. There is quite a history of victorious NCAA breaststroke champions among the ranks of past UCSD swimmers. It definitely has a huge impact on me knowing what this program is capable of and how confident we should be about the undeniable success of the swimmers it has produced.
Q-How has your role on the team evolved since you first arrived at UCSD?
NGUYEN-Well, I am an upperclassman now, and having gone through almost three years of this program I like to think that I have a little more sense of what is going on and what the ultimate plans and goals of the year are. I like being on the other side of things, and knowing more about what is going on with team.
Q-In your career, what has surprised you the most about collegiate swimming?
NGUYEN-The amount of time you have to invest in the sport. There is hardly any room in your schedule to have a life outside of school and swimming. When I swam on my club team while in high school, I didn't think swimming could take up any more of my life than it did already, but somehow when I came to college it found a way.
Q-When did you start swimming and what spurred your interest?
NGUYEN-I started swimming when I was very young, and my parents say it is because they did not want me to drown. So after learning to survive in a body of water, I just never stopped swimming. I tried a lot of other sports as well when I was younger, but none of them really held my interest as much, so I eventually quit my other sport activities.
Q-What makes you a good breaststroker? Is there a typical point in a race where you know that it's going to be a good or bad swim?
NGUYEN-For me personally, it is all mental and is something I am still working on. Usually I don't feel a defining point in my race; I like to think that anything can happen within the race up until the point your hand touches the last wall.
Q-You also swim the individual medley. Is this swimming's toughest event? Which of the four strokes causes you the most trouble? Why?
NGUYEN-In my opinion the 200s of stroke and the 400 individual medley are the toughest events, although I am sure some of the mile swimmers would strongly disagree with me. I would have to say backstroke has always caused me the most trouble because I just can't seem to get some of the technical aspects of the stroke very well.
Q-What are the key attributes that Coach Scott McGihon brings to the UCSD team? What effect has he had on your swimming?
NGUYEN-Scott is really dedicated to this program, and all of his swimmers. He has a lot of faith in us as a team and as individuals, and his confidence in us, personally, makes me feel more confident in myself as a part of this team. His movie quotes are usually a pretty good laugh too.
Q-How did you make the decision to attend UCSD?
NGUYEN-My very first recruit trip was to UCSD and, apart from being drawn in by the great academic aspects of the school, I was really struck by the closeness of the team as a whole. After going on a few more recruit trips to other colleges, I easily made the decision to sign early with UCSD, and before the first half of my senior year in high school was over, I already knew where I was going to attend college.
Q-Aside from swimming, what other sports do you enjoy watching? Most of your favorite sports teams are reflective of your hometown being in Northern California. Do you ever get any heat from your teammates and local friends?
NGUYEN-I don't follow a whole lot of other sports very closely, but I do like watching football and basketball. I don't think you can avoid joining the Chargers bandwagon once you move to San Diego, but I've always been a 49ers fan too, even though they haven't been doing real well. I just try not to be an obnoxious fan wherever I am so I don't get others around me riled up in defense of their favorite sports team.
Q-What type of influence has your family had on your swimming career?
NGUYEN-My parents are both big sports fanatics and have always been very supportive of me in everything that I do, including swimming, so I am very lucky to have them. I also have two younger sisters, ages 10 and 12, who have always copied almost everything that I have ever done in my life. My 12-year-old sister, who also swims, even swears that she is going to go to UCSD when she gets older so I think it will be really interesting to see how that actually plays out when she grows up.
Q-As a pharmacological chemistry major, how have you found the course load at UCSD? What has been your most interesting class do date?
NGUYEN-Trying to balance the academic load with the swimming schedule has probably been the single biggest challenge of being on the team. As with a lot of other majors, there are always conflicts with the swimming training or travel schedule, and you have to somehow make that work. My most interesting courses so far have been my biochemistry classes; I really enjoy the material and I think it is interesting to learn about how even tiny fundamental body structures and processes all function to correlate with our daily lives.
Q-What do you hope to do after you graduate?
NGUYEN-Ultimately, I would like to be able to go to pharmacy school after I graduate.
Q-What is one in thing you would like to accomplish in the pool before you graduate from UCSD? One thing outside of the pool?NGUYEN-Before I graduate from UCSD, I want to retire my swimming career happily and be satisfied with how it turned out. I have been swimming almost my entire life, and I would like more than anything to be able to look back on it once I am done and not have any regrets. Outside of the pool, I would like to have an opportunity to study abroad before I graduate from UCSD.

Alumni Memories
A daily feature–spring training memories by Phillies Alumni, who were asked three questions: (1) Memories of their very first spring training; (2) What they liked the most about spring training, and (3) What did they like the least.
Marty Bystrom (RHP, 1980-84)
"1978. I was 18 years old and with the Spartanburg Phillies. 42 was my uniform number and my roommate was Manny Abreu. My fondest memory of the first day was how everyone threw so much harder than I did. I thought to myself, 'Where did these guys come from?' It was eye-opening for sure. I also felt so proud to put on the Phillies uniform. The thing I liked most was the challenge of facing hitters that were so much more experienced than I had faced in college. The thing I liked the least was only getting soup and crackers for lunch and the Circle Jerk. We had to run in a circle in the outfield with glove in hand, full uniform, and wearing spikes for 20 minutes. On each lap a coach would hit a ground ball so you had to bend down to field it. It was more of a mental conditioning process than physical."

WINTER PARK, Fla. -- The Brandeis baseball team twice rallied from a two-run deficit, today, but Augustana (Ill.) scored an unearned run in the bottom of the ninth to take a 5-4 decision at the Russ Matt Invitational in Florida today. The Judges fall to 1-3 with the loss, while the Vikings move to 2-0.
Brandeis got a strong starting effort from senior Mike Swerdloff (Scarsdale, N.Y./Ardsley), who tossed 7.2 innings of seven-hit ball, allowing four runs (three earned) and striking out four with one walk. After allowing a single to lead off the game, Swerdloff retired 10 straight AC batters. The Vikings broke through in the fourth inning, after 2B Kurt Schmidt singled and scored two batters later on an error at third base. They added a second run in the fifth on back-to-back singles by catcher Jim Sandberg and LF Danny Fifer. RF Justin Van Dyne beat out a double-play ball to short to pick up the RBI.
The Judges were unable to get a base runner past first base in the first six innings, but the bats woke up in the seventh. Senior LF Nick Cortese (Guaynabo, P.R./Baldwin School of Puerto Rico) walked to lead off the inning and classmate Chris Ferro (Walpole, Mass./Walpole) followed with a single. After the two were bunted to second and third, sophomore 1B Kyle Brenner (Brookfield, Mass./St. Peter-Marian) knocked them both home with a single. A two-out error moved Brenner into scoring position, but AC's Joe Cecchi got a strikeout to keep the game tied at 2-2.
Augustana reclaimed the lead in the bottom of the eighth behind a walk and three singles. Cecchi gave the Vikings the lead back with a sacrifice fly and 3B Kyle Lenihan had a single off Brandeis reliever Brian Ing (Sandwich, Mass./Sandwich) to make it a 4-2 game.
Facing Augustana closer Rick Erickson, the Judges were able to rally again. Brenner singled again with one away and came out in place of rookie pinch runner Dennis Abellaira (Nashua, N.H. / Bishop Guertin). Erickson got a strikeout for the second out of the inning, sophomore Rob Trenk (W. Orange, N.J./W. Orange) extended the game with a walk. Junior 3B Kevin Barry (No. Andover, Mass. / St. Johns Prep) answered with a single to cut it to 4-3, while rookie David Tyre-Vigil (Santa Monica, Calif. / Santa Monica) delivered a pinch single in his collegiate debut to knot the game at 4-4. Erickson induced a grounder to third to escape further damage.
In the ninth, Ing got the first two outs, but was unable to close out the game, as Augustana scored the winning run on just one hit, a single by No. 2 hitter Jeremy Juhl. An error put runners on second and third, the Judges issued an intentional walk to set up the force. Unfortunately, a pitch with the bases loaded got away from Ing, who hit a batter to plate the winning run.
Brandeis will get another shot at Augustana Saturday afternoon and try to take one of the three-game set.

Abu Dhabi cops say a shoplifter caught stealing from a supermarket tried to swallow fake notes after he was busted.
Security officers at the supermarket, which is in a large shopping mall in the capital, spotted the 36-year-old man on CCTV as he shoved unpaid items into his pockets.
Abu Dhabi Police released these cartoons on Saturday to illustrate what happened. Police said the suspect stole items including sweets, juices and cigarettes worth about Dhs165.
Colonel Dr Rashid Mohammed Borshid, chief of CID at Abu Dhabi Police, said the store notified cops after they detained the man as he tried to leave without paying.
Officers said the man tried to swallow a number of Dhs100 bills as they led him to a private room.
Borshid said security staff forced him to spit out the notes before he could swallow them. Police confirmed the notes were forgeries. Borshid added detectives found a huge amount of fake Dhs100 notes when they searched the suspect's house.
The man, who is Arab, was also was found to be an absconder, having run away from a firm where he worked as an electronic engineer. Police said he admitted shoplifting and forging notes using a scanner with a 22-year-old friend. Cops said the accused tried to swallow the dodgy notes to avoid being charged with forgery.
The suspect and his friend have been referred to the Public Prosecution.

The nonprofit AuSable River Association (ASRA) is looking to broaden its scope of work in coming years, and Brendan Wiltse expects to play a key role in that as its stewardship and outreach coordinator.
Wiltse, 30, joined the river association last month after working in recent years for the Adirondack Mountain Club, as a chief summit steward and most recently as the Johns Brook Lodge coordinator. In recent years, he also helped provide the club with a strong social media presence. A talented nature photographer, Wiltse's images often garnered attention from the public on Facebook.
Wiltse also hopes to finish up his doctorate in biology at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, in the near future. Specifically he has focused on aquatic ecology and paleolimnology, which involves the study of sediment cores of inland waters. He became interested in that subject when he studied under professor Curt Stager at Paul Smith's College.

Brendan Wiltse is the new stewardship and outreach coordinator for the AuSable River Association.
Wiltse plans to rely on all of those skill sets for ASRA. His first big tasks will be to plan the organization's roles in two upcoming events: the Great Adirondack Trail Run in Keene Valley Saturday and the Ride for the River in August.
The trail run is organized by The Mountaineer, an outdoor gear store in Keene Valley, but proceeds go to the AuSable and Boquet River associations. The Ride for the River is a cycling event organized by ASRA. It was started in 2012 to encourage tourists to return to the AuSable Valley after Tropical Storm Irene. This year's ride will be based in Wilmington. The location changes every year.
"My role with outreach is more reaching out to the businesses and building partnerships with them so that they know that we're there as a resource for them, and that we want to support them and make sure that they're as successful as possible on the river," he said.
Once he gets some time under his belt, Wiltse hopes to focus on tasks that are more scientific. One of those is to launch a citizen science water monitoring program next summer. ASRA had a water quality monitoring program a few years ago, but not in recent years. The goal is to train people how to take water samples, measuring things such as pH and temperature.
"Our real hope with that is, if you can get people out and teach them about the ecosystem and get them involved, they'll care more about it, and they become a trusted resource within their smaller community," he said.
Wiltse said that having a long-term water monitoring program could help scientists understand how the river is responding to things such as climate change and disturbances such as Tropical Storm Irene.
"It will give us a better baseline before the event happened as to what the status of the river was and how that event affected it," he said.
Wiltse is one of three employees with ASRA, a jump from recent years when it just had an executive director. With the bigger staff, the organization hopes to work with river issues farther downstream than it has in the past, when it has been focused mainly on the Wilmington area.
The other employees at ASRA, all recently hired, are Executive Director Kelley Tucker and River Steward Curtis Baker. Wiltse and Tucker are full-time, and Baker is a seasonal summer worker. Tucker handles many of the administrative duties that go along with running a nonprofit group while Baker will spend a great deal of time on the river this summer, educating anglers about issues affecting the river, including invasive species.
"I think it shows that they're doing really good work and something a little bit different than everyone else, so I'm excited to be involved in that," Wiltse said. "We realize that you need to have sustainable and economically viable communities in order to have a healthy river, and that healthy river should help you have strong communities. So just as much as we're about protecting the river, we're about figuring out way to make the river an asset to the communities that will help them economically."

A Vintage Wine Country Wedding at Cornerstone Gardens in Sonoma, California
Unique décor and a classic color palette brought a vintage feeling to the nuptials of Yuri Yakubov, a 29-year-old clean energy strategist, and his bride Alex Hoenig, a 27-year-old worldwide consumer. The wedding didn't have a strict theme, instead incorporating many of the couple's favorite things. "It was a little bit romantic, a little bit vintage, a little bit country, a little bit chic, a little bit Southern, a little bit Russian and a whole lot Californian," Alex says. The environmentally conscious couple made every attempt to be as local and sustainable as possible when planning their big day, which took place at Cornerstone Gardens in Sonoma, California. From a beautiful outdoor ceremony space to a barn for dancing, the location had everything the bride and groom were looking for. A color palette of grey, navy and white helped bring their vision of nostalgia to life. "It's a great clean canvas to build upon with vintage pieces, and the natural colors of local florals," Alex says. Although the couple's wedding featured a great attention to detail, they never lost sight of the big picture. "Stay true to who you both are and the love that you share," Alex says. "No detail, big or small, should matter more than your love for one another."

Life Science: Session 8
Scientist at Work
Dr. Nicky Sheats received his Ph.D. in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Harvard University in 2000, where his field of study was biological oceanography with a focus in stable isotope biogeochemistry. His doctoral dissertation focused on determining if sewage nitrogen was being incorporated into the food webs of the Delaware River Estuary and Massachusetts Bay. Currently Dr. Sheats is researching urban air pollution as a post-doctoral fellow at the Earth Institute at Columbia University.
In 1989, Dr. Charles Tyler started work at the Professional Services Group, Inc. as an operations specialist on the Boston Harbor Project (BHP), where he contributed to operational planning and operational review and input to the conceptual and detailed design of the 1.27 billion-gallon-per-day wastewater facility on Deer Island. After working for over five years with the construction management firm on the BHP, Tyler "jumped the fence" and joined the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority as a project manager in the process group, a group of specialists who focused on punchlisting and construction turnover, and the start-up of the newly-constructed facilities on Deer Island. Tyler, who began his career in wastewater operations in 1977, now works on operations and maintenance with technical and process issues in Deer Island 's effort to keep the huge facility operating optimally.

[COL Letter to GPO]
June 13, 2008
Mr. Richard G. Davis Superintendent of Documents Director of Library Services & Content Management U.S. Government Printing Office
Ms. Cynthia Etkin Sr. Program Planning Specialist Office of the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing Office 732 North Capitol Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20401
Dear Mr. Davis and Ms. Etkin,
On behalf of the American Library Association (ALA), I am writing in response to the Government Printing Office's (GPO's) request for comments on the report titled Regional Depository Libraries in the 21st Century: A Time for Change? In addition, the following key units have endorsed ALA's comments: the Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL), the Association for Library Collections & Technical Services (ALCTS), and the Government Documents Roundtable (GODORT).
First, ALA would like to thank the staff at GPO for their work on such an extensive undertaking in a very limited period of time. Second, we take this opportunity to provide comments (below), following each of GPO's bulleted recommendations on page 21 of the report.
Continuing and increasing appropriations for GPO's initiatives to create machine-readable bibliographic records for the legacy collection of pre-1976 depository publications to ensure its completion in a timelier manner.
ALA supports GPO's recommendation for ongoing support for adequate funding to catalog pre-1976 materials to help make them more accessible.
Revising Chapter 19 of Title 44 to allow a more flexible structure within the parameters of the, already library community-accepted, Guidelines For Establishing Shared Regional Depository Libraries.
ALA supports this recommendation with the proviso that any revision of Title 44 in the near future is limited exclusively to changes to 44 U.S.C. 1912, to allow for flexibility in the regional depository library program. At this time, our membership community has not reached consensus about larger and more significant changes to the overall structure of the Federal Depository Library Program and Title 44. (Please see comments on the final recommendation below.)
Approving the Kansas/Nebraska shared regional proposal. GPO is positioned to approve intrastate proposals and wants to continue to bring new multi-state proposals that meet the criteria in the Guidelines For Establishing Shared Regional Depository Libraries, forward to the JCP for consideration.
ALA recognizes that the Kansas/Nebraska shared regional proposal can serve as one model for an intrastate proposal, but it is only one of several possible models. ALA encourages flexibility and variety moving forward and urges GPO to consider and test this and other collaborative models.
Making funds available to regional depository libraries to help offset the costs of storing and preserving government property and the costs that are shifted from agencies to libraries as an unintended consequence of technology (an unfunded mandate).
In principal, ALA endorses this recommendation. As all stakeholders proceed with the broader discussion of larger-scale changes to Title 44 and the structure of the FDLP program, there will need to be more specific discussion about the nature of such funding and its application.
Continuing the dialog between GPO and the depository community about the outcomes of this study and to undertake a more in-depth look at the organizational, financial, and technological issues affecting the FDLP in its entirety, not just the regional depository libraries. Further discussion of scenarios for a flexible future are needed to gain consensus for driving Title 44 revisions.
ALA strongly endorses this recommendation, and looks forward to continuing the dialog and collaborating to craft solutions for meeting the challenges of providing no-fee permanent public access to government information in the digital age.
In conclusion, we would like to thank GPO for the opportunity to submit comments in response to the recommendations in the report. Also, ALA looks forward to the opportunity to work collaboratively together moving forward to identify successful strategies for meeting the challenges of providing no-fee permanent public access to government information.

A person familiar with the deal says the Maloof family has reached an agreement with a Sacramento group headed by TIBCO software tycoon Vivek Ranadive to sell a 65 percent controlling interest in the Kings at a total franchise valuation of $535 million.
The person, speaking on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press late Thursday night because they weren't authorized to talk publicly, said there are about 30 investors in the group put together by Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, a former All-Star guard.
An official announcement is expected Friday.
The NBA is expected to officially approve the agreement next week. The person said the agreement has to be closed by May 31.
On Wednesday, the NBA Board of Governors rejected a bid from a Seattle group that wanted to buy and move the franchise to the Pacific Northwest.
The 22-8 vote killed a deal that would have sold a 65 percent controlling interest at a total franchise valuation of $625 million to a Seattle group led by investor Chris Hansen, who boosted the offer twice after the NBA showed an unwillingness to relocate.
The vote ended an emotional saga that has dragged on for nearly three years. Hansen wanted to move the franchise and rename it the SuperSonics, who left Seattle for Oklahoma City in 2008 and were renamed the Thunder. NBA Commissioner David Stern praised Hansen's proposal and said the NBA might consider expansion once a new TV deal is in place.
The plan includes a new downtown arena after Johnson got the Sacramento City Council to approve a non-binding financing plan for a $447 million facility with a $258 million public subsidy.
The Sacramento ownership group also includes 24 Hour Fitness founder Mark Mastrov, former Facebook senior executive Chris Kelly and the Jacobs family that owns communications giant Qualcomm.

ith spectacular views of the Hudson River as well as the Catskill and Shawangunk Mountains, the Hudson River valley has much to offer both residents and visitors. By the turn of the 20th century, many wealthy families, including the Vanderbilts, had built palatial houses along the Hudson, between New York City and Albany. The Hudson River held special significance for the Vanderbilts. In the early 1800s, Cornelius "Commodore" Vanderbilt laid the foundation for the Vanderbilt fortune when he began a ferry service between Staten Island and Manhattan.
Later, the family's New York Central Railroad ran along the Hudson. In 1895, Frederick Vanderbilt, grandson of the Commodore, built his country estate overlooking the river in Hyde Park, New York. With more than 600 acres of landscaped property and a palatial Beaux-Arts mansion, the Hyde Park estate came to symbolize the enormous wealth accumulated by a privileged few during the Gilded Age. Today, the Vanderbilts' Hyde Park home is preserved as Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site.

Parker Jr: Hollywood star 'unreal'
Ray Parker Jr has burst into song as he unveiled his star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.
The 59-year-old musician, best known for writing and performing the Ghostbusters theme tune, gave a rendition of the song, accompanied by his electric guitar, during his induction into the Category of Recording in Los Angeles.
"I'm going to take my glasses off because I want you to witness the happiest face you've ever seen in your life. Take a picture of this," he joked.
Ray, who has worked with soul stars such as Stevie Wonder, Barry White, Aretha Franklin and Diana Ross, is officially the recipient of the 2,518th star on the Walk of Fame.
"I first want to thank God because this is just too unbelievable," he said on stage. "I'm just a small kid from Detroit and to actually be here today, amongst all these stars, is just really, really too unreal."
He also thanked the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce for "doing this while I'm still alive to come and see it" and joked he would be a regular visitor for his latest honour.
"At two in the morning, if you see some vagrant-looking guy standing out here, please do not arrest me. I will be here quite often," he quipped.
Ray Parker Jr's star is next to those of fellow musical greats Herbie Hancock, Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie and The Funk Brothers.
"Anywhere on the Walk of Fame to me is just a blessing beyond belief and is unbelievable, but the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce did something better. They put me next to the Funk Brothers, George Benson, Sam Cooke, Dizzy Gillespie and Herbie Hancock - I worked with most of these guys, so this is too much fun," Ray added.

Quote:Eyrie,This illustration shows a bit of what you are reffering too. It builds off the spear hand and then locks the wrist and uses the turn for a throw.
Quote:Going back to the idea of movement... I don't think it is so much that arts should not be stagnant but more that people should not be. At some stages of development people are very concrete and it is appropriate. When they begin to see grays instead of blacks and whites the are becoming more able to think abstractly. I think part of the challenge of teaching the whole individual is helping to usher them into a greater ability for abstraction and flexibility in thinking. Part of the task is biological and part is cognative. When the brain is ready the teacher and the techniques appear.

ABCs of the Custer Battles Scandal
Here are some answers to some common questions about the Custer Battles federal contract fraud trial and its aftermath:
1. Why didn't the US Justice Department join in the Custer Battles lawsuit?
The plaintiffs invited them. After investigating under closed seal, the department decided against it. BUT, I did notice a Justice official sitting in the courtroom quietly taking copious notes on the proceedings.
2. Will there be criminal prosecution of Michael Battles and Scott Custer now that they have been found guilty of fraud in a federal civil case?
The plaintiffs' attorney Alan Grayson thinks not: "This is a huge embarrassment for the administration and they don't want to do anything to publicize it," Grayson said. "It's just another example of corruption and fraud that the administration does nothing about and willingly participates in. The Bush administration had people running around lining up contracts for contractors who turned out to be people who stole millions upon millions from the taxpayer."
3. Because Custer Battles was largely paid with seized Iraqi Assets, will Iraq be entitled to any or all of the damages?
No. It is considered war booty and property of the invading forces.
