Turkey Intensifies Border Control on Iranian Trucks
Turkish customs officers have intensified their control on trucks carrying Iranian goods into Turkey, reported Iran News Agency (IRNA), quoting head of the provincial commerce department, Sadeq Najafi, as saying.
Najafi said that the trucks carrying Iranian non-oil exports have to cross Turkey on their way to European states.
"Turkish customs officers and border guards create problems even to foreign trucks carrying Iranian goods," he said, adding, "If the issue is not solved, non-oil exports would face severe problems."
According to the agency, reliable sources said that currently over 800 trailers and trucks are waiting in long queues to receive permission to cross Turkey en route Europe - Albawaba.com

text: Free from Mid-South Conference, Tech basketball opens season Saturday By Tom Bragg October 25, 2012 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Life after the Mid-South Conference begins for WVU Tech men's basketball Saturday when the Golden Bears host Salem International in the team's season opener.Tech was ruled ineligible for the league championship last year by the MSC, but that didn't stop the Golden Bears from finishing with the league's best record. This year Tech will play as an NAIA independent and work to break in many new players after losing seven seniors from last year's squad to graduation.The move will help Tech in being more flexible with scheduling, which will allow the school to play more games in and against competition from West Virginia."It's a major adjustment," Tech head coach Bob Williams said. "Instead of scheduling 10 or 15 games you have to schedule 30. It's especially difficult in the second semester when teams are in conference [play]. For us it's been good because it has worked out where we get some in-state games. Instead of driving to Kentucky for league games, most of our games are in the state."Tech is in the odd position, as a basketball team, to be the main attraction for the school's homecoming festivities this weekend. With no Golden Bear football team, Williams said it's different for a basketball team to play the homecoming game but he is just glad to be playing."NAIA usually starts earlier and we would have normally opened around the first of November. We're happy to play homecoming," he said. "It's different than going to a homecoming football game but the schools that don't have football have to play volleyball, basketball or soccer."The Golden Bears were listed as "also receving votes" in the preseason NAIA poll but Williams' faces the task of replacing seven seniors from last year's squad. "We still have some question marks," Williams said. "We'll be smaller and not as experienced but we'll compete."Tech's top recruit, Jacob Copley from Tolsia, left school early in the semester and will not play for the Golden Bears. Williams said Floyd Campbell, Terrale Clark, Brandon Burgraff and Jaren Marino will all start against Salem on Saturday and to expect the team to play a guard-oriented lineup most of the time.nnCharleston opens its season Nov. 6 with an exhibition at Conference USA's Southern Mississippi before starting regular-season play at home Nov. 20 against Davis & Elkins. The Golden Eagles have to fill the void left by departed West Virginia Conference Player of the Year P.J. Reyes, but coach Mark Downey said he thinks he and his staff and put the pieces in place to maintain the success the team had last year when UC finished in second place in the regular season WVC standings and lost to West Liberty in overtime of the conference tournament championship game."We want to be recognized and we want people to know our name," Downey said. "When people talk about good Division II programs we want to be mentioned. Everybody's shooting for West Lib. They've got everybody back and they're No. 1 in the country. It's going to be harder to stay up there this year."Downey said the addition of Robbie Dreher - a 6-foot-4 junior guard who led Winthrop University in scoring as a sophomore before transferring - and Terrell Lipkins - a 6-0, junior guard who was one of the top scorers in the nation while at Northland Community College in Minnesota - are newcomers who will play a big part in replacing the production Reyes provided."They're on the level as P.J." Downey said. "Last year we had one guy like that with a bunch of complimentary guys, but this year we'll have a few more guys that are all-conference-caliber players. People won't be able to key on one guy." Getting back to the WVC tournament final will not be easy for the Golden Eagles but it is a task Downey said his team is looking forward to taking on."There's four or five guys back that played in that game last year that know about that," he said. "That's something that we welcome. There are a couple polls that have come out and we want to be mentioned in that. We want to be a staple in the NCAA tournament."nnWest Virginia State opens its season two weeks from today on Nov. 9 at Mercyhurst College in Erie, Pa., and does not play a home game until Nov. 29, when the Yellow Jackets host Concord in Institute.Coach Bryan Poore's team went 14-13 overall and posted a 12-10 record in WVC play last season before being bounced from the conference tournament in the first round by Shepherd.State finished second in the WVC regular-season standings two years ago and lost to West Liberty in the conference championship game. The year before that the Yellow Jackets also finished in second place in the standings and edged the Hilltoppers 108-107 for the WVC crown. In the 2008-09 season, State won the regular-season conference title before being upset in the conference tournament quarterfinals by Wheeling Jesuit. Leading scorer Corey Bathea (19.3 points per game) is gone, but senior David Ford (15.3) returns to anchor a Yellow Jacket squad eager to return to the ranks of the WVC's elite.Reach Tom Bragg at email@example.com.

Fall Semester informationSteven Timm
210A: Performance Studies I
We'll focus on the history, texts and creative processes of solo performance pieces--particularly those pieces connected to social, cultural and political movements over the last 100 years. Students will write and perform solo pieces using a variety of source materials: personal narratives, historical figures and events, political/social movements, current events and literature. While the emphasis in this course will be on the creation of original works, a thorough understanding of the critical and historical traditions influencing and shaping the performance practice is expected. No prerequisites.

How iPad May Pad Your Company's Wallet
With the recent big splash made by the introduction of the iPad it appears the world is embarking on a new era of mobile communications with seemingly unlimited possibilities in terms of graphics, functionality and applications. I believe this is going to have an enormous impact on our lifestyles and businesses, similar to that of cell phones/smart phones, laptops and iPods. In the business world, the speed of its adoption and application will vary a great deal depending on the inherent nature of a given industry, as well as the devices' price point.
In the security world, I already foresee two general but very significant uses in which display tablet-type devices such as the iPad could alter the landscape. The first is using these devices in myriad ways in the field, from salespeople making vivid presentations, to system designers and project managers demonstrating specific products/systems on-screen or reviewing CAD diagrams and more, to technicians accessing visual troubleshooting techniques, etc. while on service calls. These are just the tip of the iceberg.
The second major use would be reselling the tablets to end users, or at least software apps to those who already have the devices, to enable them to view live and recorded video, access databases, and remotely control or administrate their security solutions in just about every conceivable way. Some of this is already available via iPhones/smart phones, and of course via desktops and laptops, but tablets' larger screens and QWERTY keyboards (even if they are virtual) considerably expand the appeal and market potential. Every security manager/director, first responder, guard, etc., not to mention millions of homeowners/consumers, may end up having, using and relying on these devices for security-related applications.
One provider that is already looking to capitalize on this trend is Sunnyvale, Calif.-based mobiDEOS. Its MobileCamViewer software app allows users to view and control fixed or pan/tilt/zoom cameras by receiving live video streaming on their iPads. "Users no longer need to be in front of their computer to view webcams, IP or security cameras. This not only increases response time but gives users a feeling of comfort and control, that was never before available," reads the company's recent press release.
mobiDEOS' MobileCamViewer service starts at $4.99/month for two cameras, $9.99 to support one DVR and can be expanded to support an unlimited number of DVRs and cameras, according to the supplier. The app is said to support all webcams, IP cameras from manufacturers such as Axis, Canon, Panasonic, Sony and Toshiba, and digital recording solutions from companies like Dedicated Micros, UTC/GE, Iveda Solutions, JVC, Milestone, Nuvico, Optelecom-NKF, OnSSI, Pelco and Vivotek. In addition to iPads, MobileCamViewer supports other mobile devices including the iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Palm, Samsung and Motorola.
My advice to installing systems integrators and security dealers is to seriously investigate this emerging phenomenon and potential opportunity. Keep a close watch on how it is unfolding because you do not want to be late to the party while competitors capitalize on how this technology can make their business run more efficiently and generate more revenue and "stickiness" with clientele.
As always, thanks for reading …

How to declare Integers?
How can one declare a variable to be integer in Mathematica?
Let me just give an example:
Integrate[Sin[m x]/Sin[x], {x,0,Pi}]
is well behaved if one explicitly sets m=1,2,3,... BEFORE doing the
In[1]:= Integrate[Sin[1 x]/Sin[x], {x,0,Pi}] Out[1]= Pi
In[2]:= Integrate[Sin[2 x]/Sin[x], {x,0,Pi}] Out[2]= 0
In[3]:= Integrate[Sin[m x]/Sin[x], {x,0,Pi}] Out[3]= Integrate::"idiv":
Integral of Csc[x] Sin[m x] does not converge on {0,Pi}
Other examples include evaluation of Sin[m Pi], etc...
I tried the following trick stated in the manual:
In[4]:= m/: IntegerQ[m] = True
Out[4]= True
but still Sin[m Pi] does not simplify to 0 nor does Mathematica figures
out that the integral above does converge in this case.
How can one declare m to be integer? There has to be a way! In Maple it
is rather easy and the expected behavior is obtained. I cannot believe
that it is not possible to accomplish the same in Mathematica as well.

If you need a major shaping, check out this slideshow to determine the best shape brows for your face, then try this:
Instead of haphazardly plucking (which I am totally guilty of), draw your desired shape over brows with a white eyeliner pencil and tweeze any hair not marked it white. Use a little makeup remover to wipe away the pencil, then walk away from the tweezers. A day later, brush your brows with a spoolie to make sure haven't missed any strays.
Then, keep up the good work with a little daily arch patrol.

Jackson reveals King Kong tidbits
Page Tools
Peter Jackson points to the hat being worn by Naomi Watts, pointing out it's based on the one worn by Fay Wray in the original 1933 film.
Peter Jackson has given the world another peep at his movie King Kong, with stars Naomi Watts and Jack Black dressed in 1930s clothes inside a New York diner.
Video footage of the scenes on the fourth day of shooting the $200 million movie in Wellington were unveiled on the fan website www.kongisking.net yesterday with Jackson's approval.
Watts, who plays Ann Darrow, wears a camel-coloured coat, grey dress and silver cloche-style hat. Jackson explains that the hat is based on one worn by Fay Wray in the original 1933 film. Wray died last month aged 96. "It's a little tribute to Fay," he says.
Black, who plays film-maker and raconteur Carl Denham, wears a brown pin-striped suit, waistcoat and fedora.
"Denham is trying to convince Ann Darrow to be part of the voyage. [There's a] very similar scene in the original film," says Jackson.
Black, as Denham, says to Watts: "I worked vaudeville once, that's a tough audience. You don't kill them fast, they kill you."
Black admits his surprise that the public is seeing him in costume this early in shooting. "It's not, like, verboten?" he asks Jackson.
"Well, normally it is, but we want to let anyone that's interested [in on] just a few little secrets," Jackson replies.

Lopresti: Like her brothers, Joani Harbaugh knows the game
Let's review where the Harbaugh family will be spending Thanksgiving.
John will be on the sidelines in Baltimore with his Ravens. Across the field will be Jim with his San Francisco 49ers; brother vs. brother in an NFL first, certain to draw the media flies.
At John's home will be the parents, Jack and Jackie, unable and unwilling to watch this family civil war in person. And where's that leave little sister, the wife of the basketball coach at Indiana University?
"I'm not going, No. 1, so it'll be a lot easier," Joani Crean said over the phone Monday. "Someone's going to lose. I'm sure we'll have jokes and stories and we'll all turn it into what we usually do. But you can't help but feel a sense of pride."
She is the younger sister who used to annoy her older brothers, and color on her father's game plans in his coaching days. But if Thursday is a celebration of the Harbaughs as a football family — and it certainly should be — she's in on the holiday, too.
"Football was everything," she said of a childhood where her father moved from coaching job to coaching job. "I'll watch a college football game over anything else on TV. My husband (Tom, the basketball coach, remember?) will be, 'What are you doing?' I'll be watching some random West Coast game at 11 o'clock at night.
"But that's how we grew up."
We will hear Harbaugh yarns this week. How John and Jim shared the same bedroom and competed for hours at everything you can imagine, and some things you can't. How Jack taught them football. How they worked hard for the chance to lead an NFL team into battle, never dreaming they would one day have to do it against each other.
And Joani? What about the story that she could splice football game film at the same age she was playing with her Barbie?
"I think that was a way to keep me busy while I was tagging along," she said. "But I could use the hot splice machine at the age of 10, yes. Impressive, huh? I think I could even go back today and use it."
She doesn't remember the brotherly wars that well, being six years younger than John and five younger than Jim. She can't recall who got the better of who.
"For me, it was who had the bigger feet in the back seat, who was shoving me from one side to the other, because they wanted more room.''
And who was harder on his little sister?
"I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I would have to deal with that phone call later."
There's even the story the two brothers remain so competitive, on family vacations they'll try to beat each other to the last hamburger.
"Your instincts always come back. They probably would," Joani said. "I choose to ignore all that stuff."
But there has been nothing like Thursday.
"For my parents, I think it will be very, very hard," she said. "Every Sunday is hard on my mom. Every Sunday is painful for her. But I think it'll be really hard for them both because my mom and dad are one and the same person. They eat, drink and sleep each other basically, so I think they will equally share the difficulty of it."
Jack Harbaugh said Sunday on a television interview that after Thursday's game, the first son he tries to reach will be the one who loses. His daughter, the coach's wife, understands.
"I think that is exactly the way it will go on Thursday. When he said that, I got a smile on my face. The last three years have not been very easy here at Indiana, and the calls you appreciate most are the ones you receive after a loss."
No matter what happens, both John and Jim will immediately go on to the next game, because that is what coaches do. And one thing you must say about all the Harbaughs, from the father to the sons to the daughter who once colored on game plans.
They all know their football.

I realize that Eco-Pro is quite controversial here. People are so unhappy with it that they are changing the coding to remove it.
I'll be the contrarian- I have no problem with Eco- Pro. Of course it saves gas mileage- the engine is off when the car is idle for more than 5 seconds. I like spending less money on gas, now and in the future.

Homesteading and Livestock
Self-reliance and sustainability in the 21st century.
Factory Farming Plowing Over Family Farms
However, the innovations mentioned above have only been so successful because they have been applied to industrialized farms. Small family farms that generate less than $2,500 in profits every year account for 40.8 percent of the number of farms in America, but only 0.1 percent of food production. Large farms, which make over $1 million in profits each year, account for only 2.5 percent of the number of farms in the United States, but 59.1 percent of the production. This is accomplished by manipulating the density of livestock on the farm. In Delaware alone, 51 million broilers were produced in the year 2008, bringing in 77 percent of all agricultural sales for the state that year. New legislation is being proposed to make it mandatory for the chickens to have enough room to stand up and turn around—an improvement to the current standards of the chicken farms in the state.
In North Carolina, hog farms have completely ruined the vernacular, especially in Alberta. Industrial farms hold anywhere from 2,500 to 17,000 pigs, but within an extremely small space. The pigs are fed almost entirely by computer, with no human interaction. Piglets feed from their mothers on hard cement floors, an improvement from living in their own feces. The pigs do not have enough room to turn around. This is how they live their life. The cost of the animal cruelty and neglect is not on the price tag of the burgers we buy in restaurants. Also, these feedlots do not come without environmental consequences on top of the inexcusable treatment of livestock. 100,000 pigs produce as much waste as a city of one million people. You would think these industrial farms would have sewage treatment plants, but they do not. The waste is released into the environment in liquid form through sprinkler systems. The Earth can manage waste from 300 pigs naturally, but when waste products from thousands and thousands of pigs are discharged into the environment, the waste ends up in rivers, drinking water and the air. Nearly all of the rivers in North Carolina are filled with sludge. Homeowners cannot go outside, sit on their porches or open their windows because of the smell of the feedlot. Their property values decrease by half. The industrial farm destroys the family farm business in the area. Before the industry even moves to an area, they make sure to have corporate profits reign over individual rights by buying out corrupt public officials. Residents fear for the quality of the drinking water for their grandchildren.
Yet, industrial farms are exempt from environmental regulations like the Clean Water and Clean Air Acts. They can dump sludge into the waterways and ruin neighborhoods. If agribusiness were not exempt from these regulations, they would have to construct a sewage treatment plant, causing the price of their pigs to go up to $1.25/lb at kill weight. This price would not allow the industries to out-compete family farms.
These costs should be offset by the benefits of agricultural industry. Even though food production has doubled in the last 50 years, food production per capita has only a 25 percent increase. We are still having monumental problems with the distribution of our food. Millions of human beings are affected by extreme hunger, while we can order three servings of meat in one sitting. Only 12 percent of the Earth's surface is arable (farm-able), and the products of farming are anything but fairly distributed across the globe. Malnutrition (lack of certain nutrients) and under nutrition (lacking of total calories) plague so many in Africa and other developing countries.
We must reexamine our approach to agriculture in the United States. We brag that we have come so far; we have progressed and doubled our food production. But is extreme neglect and cruelty to animals truly progressing humanity? Are we even distributing all of these resources to the areas of the globe that truly need them? Or are we greedily keeping the servings of meat in America nauseatingly high (only to lead to the nutrition problems in the United States like childhood obesity)? By contaminating our air and our water for our grandchildren and destroying the rural farming tradition, are we progressing? Or are we regressing to a point where only ethics need to be cultivated?

I got it because a LEO I hunt with said he wouldn't carry anything else off duty.
I have big hands, and it is not a comfortable pistol for me to shoot.
I simply cannot imagine cutting a full sized pistol down to compact...

It's a Glock, who cares if you cut it up!!! LoL!
Try a CZ I went from g17 to CZ 75 P01 what a difference see if you can shoot somebodys
The only advantage to cutting the grips down is to keep the longer sight radius. IMO, its a waste of time unless there is a truly specific need for it, but i cant think of one. However, i will not say anyone is wrong for it. If having a full length gun with a shortened grip gives you the confidence you need to carry safely , then I say go for it !

Your points are shallow... my points are Hollow....
I do quite a bit of this modification on Glocks & M&P's.. I think it's due to more people carrying appendix style..
If I wanted a gun with a shorter grip I'd buy one. I would not do a chop job on the one I have and I would never buy a used gun that someone else had chopped down.Thoughts?

I wouldn't do this, only because there would always be nagging doubts in the back of my mind (possibly unfounded) that all the heating, cooling, and hacking might possibly make the frame more likely to fail at some point. I'm sure someone will post that they had a hack job done and have X gazillion rounds downrange with no issues, but that sample size of one does not instill confidence in me.
I'd rather take a baby Glock, and add a longer barrel. If you want the benefits of a longer sight radius, use a laser and/or a red dot. Just leave the frame alone!!
The number of people killed because they didn't have "enough gun" is dwarfed by those who had none at all.
How would you get a longer sight radius by dropping in a longer barrel when your sights are in the same place? It may make the gun slightly more accurate.. Most frames are modified for CCW purposes but the longer slide also has benefits over a compact .
Cutting and grinding causes friction, which causes heat. Stippling uses heat as well.
A longer barrel does not give you a longer sight radius, but it gives you some of the other advantages...more velocity, some more weight for less muzzle flip, etc. The laser and/or red dot gives you a much longer "sight radius" than a slightly longer slide.
The number of people killed because they didn't have "enough gun" is dwarfed by those who had none at all.
If I want a gun with a shorter grip, I'll just buy one.

The 17 chopped down to a 19 is the gun Glock should have made in the first place.

I second the motion to just buy a weapon with a smaller grip, if that's what you're looking for. Never in a million years would I chop up my G19. I'll just buy the G26 instead, and I plan to do so soon.
My Glock 30 was a bit long in the trigger reach dimension. Tried a G30SF and for whatever reason didn't feel any improvement. So on a whim, I heated the back of the grip with a heat gun and squeezed the crap out of it. The difference is not visually noticeable, but the feel is much improved. It's something of a custom fit for my hand, even as little as it changed. Oh, and wear a leather glove before trying it!

Re: Using Mathematica notebooks in presentations?
I do agree, and I do not want to get started on awful and/or

Nevertheless, used wisely it can make handy tool for delivering

The swimming pool and beach season has started in Dubai (at least for us), and I am finding myself in the kitchen baking cookies. Naturally, I try and make them as healthy and nutritious as possible by sneaking in some flax meal, making them gluten or even grain free.
However, for my family taste and texture comes first (nutrition is secondary). The very first requirement for a good cookie is crunch. These chocolate coconut cookies have a wonderful crisp. I love the deep dark flavor of the chocolate combined with coconut. They are quite filling too, in a pleasant way that makes you enjoy the flavor and texture of those few that you can eat at a time even more. Bon appetit!
Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine almond meal, chickpea flour, flax meal, cocoa powder and sugar.
In a small bowl, whisk together coconut oil and vanilla extract. Combine oil mixture with dry ingredients and. Between the palms of your hands, form cherry-sized balls out the dough. Then roll them in desiccated coconut. Place onto the prepared baking sheet and repeat until all dough is used up. Leave 2 to 3 inches space between the balls.
Bake for 10 minutes or until edges are golden. Let cool completely on wire rack.

Ive cut out the shapes for the arms, back and front of the jacket in the blue fabric (getting the front bit was hard because of the side opening and also had to take the length up to the right height. Ive made the arms 8" longer than they should be so that I can up turn them like they should be. Im yet to work out how to do the collar.
I have lots and lots of interfacing for the half skirt/butt flaps thingy the state alcemists wear around their waists.

Pupils from Valentines High School in Ilford visited Darcy House sheltered housing in Dagenham on Wednesday (16 December) to share handmade Christmas cards and gifts with residents. A cheque for £250 was also presented to go towards social activities at the service as well as a box of biscuits, tins and other groceries.
Pupils from the school made and wrote 120 Christmas cards in total, which were also given to residents at nearby Fred Tibble Court and Harp House services, and chose Christmas presents to give.
The residents and the ten pupils who visited enjoyed Christmas carols, mince pies and the chance to talk about their favourite memories of Christmas time.
Extra care services for Darcy House are run by Triangle Community Services, a subsidiary of Friends of the Elderly. The residents will decide how the donations collected by Valentines High School's pupils will be used in the New Year.
Janet Hawthorn, Director of Care for Triangle Community Services, said: "We would like to say a massive thank you to the pupils and staff at Valentines High School. The time spent fundraising, making cards and picking and wrapping presents really means so much to the residents of our Extra Care services. These gestures will make such a big difference to our residents this Christmas."
Emily Danvers, Head of Kings House at Valentines High School, said: "We were so pleased visit Darcy House to celebrate the festive period - enabling the younger and older generations to meet. Our students have been hard at work buying presents, raising money and making cards to the residents in order to show them they are cared for this Christmas time. The students have been very excited to spend the afternoon at the home and are proud to play an active role in helping to combat loneliness and isolation of older people in this country."
If you'd like to discuss how your school or community group could support Friends of the Elderly, please send us an email or call us on 020 7730 8263.

- Dante Gabriel Rossetti
Dante Gabriel Rossetti was born 12 May 1828 in London, the second child and eldest son of Italian expatriates. His father, Gabriele Rossetti, was a Dante scholar, who had been exiled from Naples for writing poetry in support of the Neapolitan Constitution of 1819. Rossetti's mother had trained as a governess and supervised her children's early education. Few Victorian families were as gifted as the Rossettis: the oldest child, Maria Rossetti, published A Shadow of Dante (1871) and became an Anglican nun; William Michael Rossetti was along with his brother an active member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and became an editor, man of letters, and memoirist; the youngest, Christina Georgina Rossetti, became an important and influential lyric poet.
As a child Dante Gabriel Rossetti intended to be a painter and illustrated literary subjects in his earliest drawings. He was tutored at home in German and read the Bible, Shakespeare, Goethe's Faust, The Arabian Nights, Dickens, and the poetry of Sir Walter Scott and Lord Byron. After leaving school, he apprenticed himself to the historical painter Ford Madox Brown, who later became his closest lifelong friend. He also continued his extensive reading of poetry—Poe, Shelley, Coleridge, Blake, Keats, Browning, and Tennyson—and began in 1845 translations from Italian and German medieval poetry. In 1847 and 1848 Rossetti began several important early poems—"My Sister's Sleep," "The Blessed Damozel," "The Bride's Prelude," "On Mary's Portrait," "Ave," "Jenny," "Dante at Verona," "A Last Confession," and several sonnets, a form in which he eventually became expert.
Rossetti divided his attention between painting and poetry for the rest of his life. In 1848 he founded the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood with six other young men, mostly painters, who shared an interest in contemporary poetry and an opposition to certain stale conventions of contemporary academy art. In a general way, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood sought to introduce new forms of thematic seriousness, high coloration, and attention to detail into contemporary British art. Members of the group included John Everett Millais, its most skilled painter and future president of the Royal Academy, and William Holman Hunt, Thomas Woolner; Frederic Stephens; and William Michael Rossetti, who as P.R.B. secretary kept a journal of activities and edited the six issues of its periodical, the Germ (1850). Associates of the group included the older painter Ford Madox Brown, the painter and poet William Bell Scott, the poet Coventry Patmore, and Christina Rossetti, six of whose poems appeared in the Germ.
The Pre-Raphaelite Brothers provided each other with companionship, criticism, and encouragement early in their careers and defended each other against initial public hostility. Dante Gabriel Rossetti shaped the group's literary tastes, pressed for the founding of the Germ, and published several poems in it, including "My Sister's Sleep." He also contributed an allegorical prose tale, "Hand and Soul," in which a thirteenth-century Italian painter, Chiaro dell' Erma, is visited by a woman representing his soul, who tells him, "Paint me thus, as I am ....so shall thy soul stand before thee always"—an early suggestion of Rossetti's later artistic preoccupation with dreamlike, heavily stylized female figures.
In the late 1840s, Rossetti began exhibiting his paintings and, in 1850 met Elizabeth Eleanor Siddal, "Lizzie," then sixteen or seventeen years old. Lizzie became Rossetti's model, and eventually his wife. After losing a child, she committed suicide in 1862; already depressed, her death pushed Rossetti into deeper melancholy. As a last tribute Rossetti placed a manuscript of his poems in his wife's grave, a decision he later regretted. However marked by tragedy, the 1850s and '60s saw Rossetti's reputation grow rapidly. In 1856 several university undergraduates, including William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones, began a journal modeled after the Germ. Entitled the Oxford and Cambridge Magazine, it had a run of twelve issues to which Rossetti contributed three poems. Through his connection to the magazine, Rossetti met Jane Burden—his life-long muse and mistress—and introduced her to her future husband William Morris.
The triangle between Rossetti, Jane Burden, and Morris was complex. Rossetti cofounded a firm of designers comprised of Morris and others, doing decorative work for churches and private houses. Morris seems to have been aware of the affair, and even to some extent sanctioned it. Rossetti's first portraits of Jane Burden, in crayon, pencil, and oil, are usually considered his most striking artistic work. Letters from Rossetti to Morris reveal that by 1869 she had become the center of his emotional life: "All that concerns you is the all-absorbing question with me... no absence can ever make me so far from you again as your presence did for years. For this long inconceivable change, you know now what my thanks must be." Jane Morris suffered from poor health, however, and by the late 1860s, Rossetti had also begun to show physical and mental ailments which burdened him for the rest of his life: uncertain eyesight, headaches, insomnia, a hydrocele which made sitting difficult and required periodic drainage, and growing fear of, and distaste for, the outer world. However, the years of Rossetti's relationship with Jane Morris coincided with some of his most vigorous poetic activity: 1869 was an annus mirabilis. In addition to about seventeen "House of Life" sonnets, Rossetti worked on revisions to "Dante at Verona," "Jenny," and "A Last Confession"; composed the highly erotic "Eden Bower" and "Troy Town"; wrote several more sonnets on pictures; and began "The Stream's Secret," which he completed the next year. In the March 1869 Fortnightly Review, he published the four Willowwood sonnets, whose presentation of erotic frustration and intensity exemplifies his best style, as in Love's song from sonnet three:
"O Ye, all ye that walk in Willowwood,
That walk with hollow faces burning white;
What fathom-depth of soul-struck widowhood,
What long, what longer hours, one lifelong night,
Ere ye again, who so in vain have wooed
Your last hope lost, who so in vain invite
Your lips to that their unforgotten food,
Ere ye, ere ye again shall see the light!"
Rossetti decided in 1869 to publish a volume of his poems, and in October he employed Charles Augustus Howell and others to exhume the manuscript from his wife's grave. Rossetti's year of production was not without its shadows: in his 1892 Autobiographical Notes, William Bell Scott related that during a visit to Scotland, Rossetti showed fear at a chaffinch which he felt contained the spirit of his dead wife. In the spring of 1870 Rossetti rested his eyesight at the estate of Barbara Bodichon in Scalands, Sussex, near Jane Morris, at Hastings for her health. The Morrises visited Rossetti together, and Jane Morris remained with him while her husband returned to work. At Scalands Rossetti also began to drink chloral with whiskey to counter his insomnia. Chloral induces paranoia and depression, both latent traits of Rossetti's character. His suspiciousness, reclusiveness, and fear of strangers steadily worsened.
Throughout 1870 Rossetti lodged in various country houses with Jane Morris, continuing to write poems and add sonnets to his long sequence, "The House of Life." Rossetti and Jane Morris's brief period of apparent happiness and (presumably) sexual liaison has attracted biographers by its supposed romantic unconventionality. It might be more sympathetic as well as realistic to keep in mind the situation's infirmities and constraints: Rossetti's obesity, addiction, hydrocele, bad eyesight, and growing anxieties; and Jane Morris's ever-present children, neuralgia, and bad back. Rossetti's anxieties focalized in 1871, when the Contemporary Review published a pseudonymous article by Thomas Maitland (Robert Buchanan), who attacked Rossetti as a leader of a school of poets of sensual lust: "he is fleshly all over, from the roots of his hair to the tip of his toes." Though a minor poet, Buchanan's review upset Rossetti. Rossetti replied with an article in the Athenaeum, "The Stealthy School of Criticism," and Buchanan then expanded his views for publication under his own name in the spring of 1872 as The Fleshly School of Poetry and Other Phenomena of the Day. William Michael Rossetti wrote of the effect of the attack on his brother in his memoir, "It is a simple fact that, from the time when the pamphlet had begun to work into the inner tissue of his feelings, Dante Rossetti was a changed man, and so continued till the close of his life."
In an atmosphere of Victorian prudery, it was not unreasonable to fear harm from such a pamphlet, though most of Rossetti's poetic predecessors and contemporaries, Tennyson, Robert Browning, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Morris, and Swinburne, had survived worse reviews. Almost all the reviews of Rossetti's 1870 Poems were favorable, and the book had sold unusually well (four editions in 1870). More directly, Rossetti may also have feared public exposure of his relationship with Jane Morris. In any case, after leaving Kelmscott on 2 June 1872, Rossetti suffered a complete mental breakdown. He was taken to the Roehampton home of his friend Dr. Thomas Gordon Hake, where he attempted to commit suicide (as had Lizzie) with an overdose of laudanum. He then spent the summer under the care of friends and associates. However, by 1873, Rossetti's poetic productivity had revived, and he finished seven single sonnets and the double sonnet "The Sun's Shame." The sonnets of this period are melancholy and resonant, but the familiar themes of suffused passion have begun to merge with new ones—the creation of art and intimations of immortality. Rossetti also continued to paint steadily, using Jane Morris as a model, though she was absent more and more frequently. Rossetti eventually left Kelmscott, where they had been staying together, for Chelsea. There his health continued to decline.
Jane's letters of the mid-1870s indicate a decline in her own health; she found it difficult to sit and suffered from faints. Rossetti's phobias and increasingly paranoid suspicions may also have contrasted more and more unfavorably with William Morris's energy, prosperity, affectionate goodwill, and attentive concern for the Morrises' children. Rossetti suffered further breakdowns in 1877 and 1879, though a last surge of poetic energy in 1880 and 1881 anticipated the publication of his poems in 1881. In this edition, he added six sonnets to "The House of Life," completed seventeen more sonnets and short poems, revised "Sister Helen," finished "The White Ship," and wrote a carefully developed historical ballad, "The King's Tragedy." The final sonnets and short poems reflect on the nature and source of art, as in the famous introductory sonnet to "The House of Life":
A Sonnet is a moment's monument,—
Memorial from the Soul's eternity
To one dead deathless hour.
A Sonnet is a coin: its face reveals
The soul,—its converse, to what Power 'tis due:—
Whether for tribute to the august appeals
Of Life, or dower in Love's high retinue,
It serve; or, 'mid the dark wharf's cavernous breath,
In Charon's palm it pay the toll to Death.
In 1881 Rossetti sold one of his largest and best paintings, Dante's Dream, to the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Although his volumes of Poems and Ballads and Sonnets (1881) were quietly but favorably received, he had entered a final pattern of depressive ill health. A sudden decline in February 1882 caused him to move to Birchington, where he revised the comic poem Jan Van Hunks, was visited by his mother, William, and Christina, and died of blood poisoning from uric acid on 9 April 1882. At his death he left behind the almost completed "Joan of Arc" and "Salutation of Beatrice."
Many of Rossetti's self-estimates were accurate. Had he been able when young to choose a literary career, he would probably have been a better poet than painter; he was a genuinely original and skillful writer. In part, his achievement was vicarious: he galvanized others in many ways not easily measured. However, insecurity and self-reproach manifested themselves in all but his earliest poems. Rossetti was haunted by a (perhaps partially accurate) private assessment of his weaknesses as a painter and obsessed with Jane Morris as a model. Yet he was perhaps right that his intense response to such private archetypes was the chief distinction of his work. But it would be wrong to sentimentalize Rossetti as a victim of "tragic loves." It seemed to serve some inner purpose for Rossetti to idealize women who were withdrawn, invalid, and/or melancholic. Their genuine alienation seems to have provided some counterpart for an inner sense of inadequacy and isolation in him. In some way he seemed to need serious emotional attachments with women poised on the edge of withdrawal. In any case, a sense of this equilibration heightened the effects both of his paintings and of his poetry.
Critics have differed in assessing the quality of Rossetti's poetic achievement and in their preferences for different periods of his work. However, it is difficult to date Rossetti's work or divide it into periods, since he continually revised poems begun as a young man. The texts to many early poems—"The Blessed Damozel," "Sister Helen," "The Burden of Nineveh," "The Portrait," "Jenny," "Dante at Verona," and several of the sonnets—gradually became near-palimpsests. Though concerned with many of the same themes over the course of his career—idealized, fleeting love and disappointment—in Rossetti's middle and later poetry, sexual love became a near-desperate desire to transcend time. Passion's benefit is not pleasure or mutual relaxation but a poignant hope that one moment may endure. This shift brought radical changes in themes and style and makes it somewhat difficult to compare Rossetti's achievement with that of other Victorian poets. For its modest size, Rossetti's poetic work is wide in manner and subject. He was a talented experimenter, and his heightened rhythms and refrains influenced other mid-and late-century poetry. He was also an important popularizer of Italian poetry in England and a major practitioner of the sonnet. His erotic spiritually and gift for the dramatic were his own, and poets from Swinburne to Wilde benefited from the liberating influence of his example. Rossetti's attempt to create a unified oeuvre of poetry and painting was also pioneering and extended conceptions of both arts. Rossetti also had an indirect influence on the literature of the Decadence. He conceived the idea of the Germ, the first little magazine of literature and art, and with Brown, Morris, Burne-Jones, and Webb helped cofound the movement to extend the range of decorative art and improve the quality of book design.
It would be difficult to imagine later nineteenth-century Victorian poetry and art without Rossetti's influence. His writings can perhaps best be viewed as an unusually acute expression of Victorian social uncertainty and loss of faith. Rossetti's poetry on the absence of love is as bleakly despairing as any of the century, and no poet of his period conveyed more profoundly certain central Victorian anxieties: metaphysical uncertainty, sexual anxiety, and fear of time.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti was born 12 May 1828 in London, the second child and eldest son of Italian expatriates. His father, Gabriele Rossetti, was a Dante scholar, who had been exiled from Naples for writing poetry in support of the Neapolitan Constitution of 1819. Rossetti's mother had trained as a governess and supervised her children's early education. Few Victorian families were as gifted as the Rossettis: the oldest child, Maria Rossetti, published A Shadow of Dante (1871) and became an Anglican nun; William Michael Rossetti was along with his brother an active member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and became an editor, man of letters, and memoirist; the youngest, Christina Georgina Rossetti, became an important and influential lyric poet.
As a child Dante Gabriel Rossetti intended to be a painter and illustrated literary subjects in his earliest drawings. He was tutored at home in German and read the Bible, Shakespeare, Goethe's Faust,...

text: Rajinikanth, the one and only Superstar of Indian Cinema, has officially confirmed his next project after Shivaji Yesterday. He will be acting in the new film Kuselar, a remake of Mammootty starred Malayalam super hit Katha Parayumbol in the lead role. The official announcement has come through Rajinis mentor and one of the producers of the film K Balachander and the director of this new project P.Vasu in a press meet held at Taj Coramandal on the auspicious day Pongal. Kuselar is a bi-lingual film in Tamil and Telugu and for the first time after many years Rajini will be acting in a straight Telugu film. Vasu said, "Though the film is a remake of a Malayalam movie, I will make necessary changes as per the requirement of Tamil and Telugu viewers. In Tamil, the movie is temporarily titled as Kuselar. But there will be a change in the title. In Telugu, the project is yet to be titled. The shooting will start from February first week and completes June end. We planned to release the movie in the mid-August... Answering to a question, Vasu said, "When I accepted to remake Manichitra Tazhu for Rajini, media assumed a mere remake of the original in Chandramukhi. But the outcome was totally differed from what they expected. For Kuselar also, I will give the same treatment like Chandramukhi. Definitely, the film would satisfy all the Rajini fans expectation. It will be a clean funfair for all kind of viewers. Vasus further told that he would come with the complete crew list within a day or two. However, Pasupathy is going to play the second lead role along with Rajini. Seven Arts Films, one of the leading production houses in Malayalam and has given hits like His Highness Abdullah, Kreedom and Badhram is joining hands with Kavithalaya to produce the movie first time in Tamil. In Telugu, Aswini Dutt of Vyjayanthi Films has jointly produced the film with Seven Arts. The producers of Katha Parayumbol Srinivasan (script writer cum hero of the film) and Mukesh, producers G.P.Vijaya Kumar, Aswini Dutt also attended the press meet.

Hospira Announces Voluntary Nationwide Recall Of 0.5% Marcaine™
Hospira, Inc. (NYSE: HSP), announced it will initiate a voluntary nationwide recall to the user level for one lot of 0.5% Marcaine™ (Bupivacaine HCl Injection, USP), 30 mL, Single-dose Vial – Preservative Free (NDC 0409-1560-29), Lot 33-545-DD. The recall is due to a confirmed customer report of particulate embedded in the glass vial as well as visible particulate in the solution. To date, Hospira has not received reports of any adverse events associated with this issue for this lot. Hospira has attributed the embedded particulate to a supplier's glass defect. Hospira is working with its supplier on implementing corrective and preventive actions.
If the particulate goes undetected and solution is administered - depending on the particle size and number - it could block administration of the drug to the patient, causing a delay in therapy. However, this is an unlikely outcome due to the size of the subvisible particulates identified. It is more likely that particulates are able to pass through the catheter and may result in local inflammation, mechanical disruption of tissue or immune response to the particulate.
While extremely rare, particulate exposed to strong magnetic fields (e.g. MRI), could potentially dislodge and cause tissue damage. However, the particulate size identified is considered too small. Therefore, an adverse outcome is extremely unlikely.
Marcaine is packaged 10 units per carton/100 units per case in glass fliptop vials. The impacted lot of Marcaine was distributed November 2013 through March 2014 to wholesalers/distributors, hospitals and clinics nationwide.
Anyone with an existing inventory should immediately stop use and quarantine any affected product. In addition, customers should inform potential users of this product in their organizations of this notification. Hospira will be notifying its direct distributors/customers via a recall letter and will arrange for impacted product to be returned to Stericycle for returns processing. For additional assistance, call Stericycle at 1-888-656-6380 (M-F, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. ET).

In 1909 the luxurious French brand opened its first store in New York. "Jewellers to Kings. The King of Jewellers" was the motto that ensured Cartier's welcome reception in the land of opportunity. To mark Cartier's 100th American anniversary, teNeues have published "Cartier, I love You by Bruce Weber", a heartfelt bound love letter to a jewellery house without equal.
For the elaborate book project, star photographer Bruce Weber was granted unrestricted access to the corporate archives, where he could study the film and pictorial documents to his heart's content and learn more about the grand jeweller's history.
Louis-François Cartier laid down the success story's corner stone when he founded a jewellery studio in Paris in 1847. Yet, the company achieved world fame through his son Louis Cartier, who designed a wrist watch in 1904, which he named after Brazilian flight pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont, as it was at his suggestion the watch was created. Since 1904, Cartier was present in the role as the official jewellery supplier to every solemn ceremony at the court of King Eduard VII.
The anniversary book does not rely on solely presenting gemstones and glamorous society ladies. Bruce Weber portrayed Cartier's jewellery according to its zeitgeist, and in an exhilaratingly unconventional way. Furthermore, the company's headquarters in the United States of America, is picked out as a central theme.
First and foremost, Bruce Weber is known for his sexy fashion photography for Calvin Klein, Gianni Versace or Ralph Lauren. His works have been published in Vogue, GQ, Vanity Fair, Interview and Rolling Stone. He is renowned for his All-American Volumes 1-8, Gentle Giants, Branded Youth or The Chop Suey Club publications.
The writing that accompanies the book was contributed by Ingrid Sischy, Editor in Chief, Interview magazine and Editor, American Vanity Fair. The gold-bordered, distinctively red, shiny cover and case are designed to look like a Cartier jewellery box - right down to the authentic Cartier ribbon sewn into each binding.

This year, THE CONCRETE PRODUCER, with our sister publication, CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION, introduced the GreenSite Project of the Year con contest honoring the concrete community's efforts to promote concrete's role in creating eco-friendly structures that will stand the test of time.
The name "GreenSite" reflects the innovative processes and materials that create a green building project, many of which are invisible in the final product. For instance, visitors to the Aldo Leopold Legacy Center in Wisconsin breathe air that is pretreated by an underground concrete pipe ventilation system. Meanwhile, in Philadelphia, lightweight CarbonCast walls protect residents of the Symphony House condominiums from the elements, while using less energy and fewer materials than traditional concrete panels.
TCP's 2008 GreenSite winners each represent a different category: Institutional, Commercial, Multifamily, Residential, and High-rise. For more details and photos of each project, click here.

Grand Rapids Art Museum Grand Rapids, Mich.
When planning for the new Grand Rapids Art Museum, project officials and donors decided to pursue Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification "with a vengeance," to make it the world's first newly built, LEED-certified art museum. They eventually exceeded this goal with a Gold level certification by incorporating green design elements and sustainable building materials.
Concrete was an important contributor to the project's sustainability and design flexibility. Of the many elements brought to life in this 135,000-square-foot building, the architectural concrete exterior stands out as one of its most beautiful components. At the same time, the museum's 12-inch-thick, cast-in-place concrete walls optimize energy use by keeping the building warm or cold.
Inside, exposed concrete walls feature tie holes aligned in rows and columns, and defined corners and reveals. A sequence of 177 separate architectural concrete pours led to a one-of-a-kind forming system. The forms, which called for sharp corners, needed to be watertight around the tie holes and edges. Each pour had zero tolerance for rework, since patches were not allowed.
Concrete also helped meet LEED material requirements because much of it came from local sources, requiring less energy in transportation. The museum's 20,000 yards of 4000 to 6000 psi concrete contained 3% recycled content and 100% regional materials.
Other items that contribute to the sustainable quality of the museum include extensive use of natural light, gray water collection, management, and recycling, and an innovative mechanical system that uses energy recovery wheels to pre-condition incoming fresh air and lower energy requirements.

Bryan Sartor sentenced for crime involving a baby's death
Holts Summit man guilty of child endangerment and drug charges
HOLTS SUMMIT, Mo. - A Holts Summit man was sentenced to probation Monday on child endangerment and drug charges.
Bryan Sartor pleaded guilty in February to the charges after a 9-month-old was found dead last June.
While investigating the death of Kyson Weathers, officers found meth in the home. Sartor admitted to using meth and checking on the baby 11 hours after putting him to sleep.
At a sentencing Monday, the prosecuting attorney asked the court for four years in prison.
Sartor was sentenced to fourteen years in prison for two counts of child endangerment and seven years for a drug possession charge, to be served concurrently. Those sentences, however, were suspended and he was placed on five years of supervised probation.
Sartor and the baby's mother, Megan Ayers, were both charged. Ayers is currently serving five years in prison for the crime.
