The "Lonely Planet Tokyo" iPhone app describes female sword fighting as a bygone form of male entertainment:
Surprisingly, striptease almost failed to catch on due to the popularity of a rival form of risqué entertainment, namely female sword fighting (to modern ears, the idea of scantily clad jousting females might sound a bit strange, but at the time it was the height of erotic entertainment).
Is there a Japanese term that refers to this phenomenon, as opposed to legitimate fighters who just happen to be female?
I tried googling and had no luck, but I heard from "worst jobs in history" that it was a form of entertainment in the United Kingdom.

UW Hosts Astronomy Experience for Six Undergraduate Students from Across the Nation
Beginning this week, six undergraduate students from across America have gathered for 10 weeks to delve into studying astronomy at the University of Wyoming. And there's no easing in. Students were scheduled to gaze at stars through a telescope on their first night.
During their stay, the students will make nightly treks to observe stars at either the Wyoming Infrared Observatory on Jelm Mountain or Red Buttes Observatory along U.S. Highway 287; understand what it means to work in a team environment; learn scientific programming and data analysis; and shore up their public speaking skills.
"This provides students a firsthand understanding of what it means to be a scientist," says Daniel Dale, a professor and chair of UW's Department of Physics and Astronomy. "This experience will inform them of what they want to do for the rest of their lives."
The educational program is made possible through a three-year, $200,000 National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates (NSF-REU) grant UW secured. The grant is designed to provide early college students -- with minimal research experience and little access to observatories -- the opportunity to learn about astronomy and what skills go into being a scientist.
"These are excellent students, but with not a whole of research experience," says Dale, who is the grant's principal investigator. "We look for students with an enthusiasm for research in Wyoming, in particular."
From across the country
The six students, who arrived on campus May 28, were chosen from a pool of about 200 who applied from across the nation.
Students, their hometown, year in school, major and educational institution are as follows:
Branchburg, N.J. -- Katie Lester, junior, astrophysics, Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pa.
Dudley, Mass. -- James Chapman, sophomore, math and physics, Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts in North Adams, Mass.
Lakewood, Wis. -- Erica Keller, sophomore, astronomy, Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Mass.
Louisville, Ky. -- Emily Rolen, sophomore, physics and astronomy, Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn.
Peoria Ill. -- Eric Topel, physics and math, St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minn.
Virginia Beach, Va. -- Jamie Burke, sophomore, astrophysics and classical studies, Swarthmore College in Swarthmore, Pa.
The visiting students had many reasons for their interest in this opportunity, but most mentioned this experience provided ample opportunity to use UW's observatories and get outdoors in a part of the country most say they have not seen.
"I was looking for an internship that has a lot of observing, which this does," Keller says. "I want to go into astronomy and research."
Burke says he has previously been to Wyoming but never stayed for an extended period.
"The outdoor opportunities seem cool," he says. "You have a nice, high-quality telescope here. It will be nice to do high-quality research."
Star search
The group will focus on studying binary stars, or stars that orbit one another, says Chip Kobulnicky, an associate professor of physics and astronomy, and co-principal investigator of the grant. Specifically, the students will attempt to measure the following: how fast these stars orbit around one another; how often massive stars have close companion stars; how close the companion stars are to the massive stars; and the masses of the companion stars.
"Are they massive stars? Are they smaller stars? Or, are they a mix?" Dale says.
These are considered the essential ingredients needed for theories of massive star formation and to predict the number of explosive events -- such as supernova and gamma ray bursts -- throughout the universe, Kobulnicky says.
In addition to gaining observation skills at a major telescope facility, the students will learn how to use common astronomical software to reduce spectroscopic data, and learn time-series analysis and orbital parameter fitting.
Under then-REU program director Ron Canterna, UW operated a similar program from 1987 to 2008, when Canterna retired and the NSF grant expired. The Department of Physics and Astronomy revived the program last year when it was able to secure an NSF-REU grant.
During their stay, the students will receive a weekly stipend of $450, reside in Crane Hall and eat their meals at Washakie Dining Center. To culminate their experience, the students will each create their own research poster, which will be presented at the national meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Washington, D.C., next January. In addition to covering their travel to and from Laramie for the summer, the grant also helps to defray their conference costs, Dale says.
"I like how the university is invested in teaching us to become good scientists," Topel says. "They have seminars scheduled on taking the GRE (Graduate Record Examination), graduate schools and submitting scientific papers."
Dale is excited about what UW can offer these students. But, he admits there are reciprocal benefits to UW, too.

Filed under: Democrat Corruption, Election 2012, Foreign Policy, Military, National Security, The United States | Tags: Afghanistan, Insider Afghan Attacks, The Obama Administration
U.S. and NATO troops have fallen to attacks by Afghan insiders— trainees or Afghan police — in increasing numbers. The troop deaths from so-called green-on-blue attacks have climbed past 100, and it is only now becoming clear why it is happening. There has been a standing order from military brass requiring troops to remove the magazines from their weapons while quartered inside their bases with their "trusted Afghan partners."
Jihadist Afghan soldiers or police have easily gotten the jump on their trainers, shooting them in cold blood with the rifles and ammunition issued by the United States. Ten of our troops have died in just this way in the past two weeks. Since the beginning of 2012, there have been 32 attacks that have resulted in 40 deaths. Last year there were 21 insider attacks.
Earlier this month, an Afghan security commander ambushed U.S. troops. The officer, who was helping U.S. special forces train the local police force, lured elite U.S. soldiers to a Ramadan meal at his outpost to talk security. He then opened fire on them at close range, killing three and wounding one.
The Taliban took credit for the attack. The terror group released a video indicating it has heavily infiltrated the Afghan national army and police force.
"I opened fire on three Americans who were sitting together," a rogue Afghan soldier, identified as Ghazi Mahmood, says while smiling for the camera. "The reason I killed them is because they have occupied our country. They are enemies of our religion." He said that there are many other uniformed Afghans "looking for the opportunity to kill infidels."
This was conceived as a "gesture of trust" toward Muslim partners. Commanders ordered U.S. soldiers to remover their magazines from their weapons while training and working alongside them. The Afghans were allowed to remain armed. Most troops generally removed their heavy Kevlar body armor once they got inside the base, making them even more vulnerable to "friendly fire."
Disarming the Afghans would have been the obvious solution. But of course that would expose this whole "training partnership" as the farce it really is. Training and standing up a national security force in Afghanistan is the linchpin of President Obama's withdrawal strategy. He has set a 2014 deadline for troop pullout.
But the Pentagon is already reducing troop presence by 30,000 by the end of the summer. Many of the remaining soldiers will switch from fighting to training and advising Afghan forces. This means even more of them will be exposed to insider attacks.
But we're not just training Afghans to replace soldiers. We're hiring them to protect our soldiers right now, and many of them have also turned on our soldiers. Obama has insisted on using Afghan security guards for base security as a way to limit the size of the U.S. military footprint in Afghanistan. Hiring local Afghans to protect troops obviates the need to deploy some 20,000 additional troops as MPs, or to move existing troops out of combat roles.
Obama's rush to withdraw has needlessly cost at least 100 soldiers' lives and wounded countless others.

AG Holder, FBI Director Mueller say automatic cuts would erode public safety everywhere
WASHINGTON (AP) � The nation's two top law enforcement officers have warned that looming across-the-board spending cuts at the Justice Department and the FBI would erode public safety in every city and town in the nation.
The impending cuts would cause FBI furloughs equivalent in size to closing the bureau's offices in Chicago, Miami and Baltimore, slash the number of civil and criminal cases filed by federal prosecutors and delay the full use of four new prisons while taxing the ability to keep inmates and guards safe.
"These would be cuts that impact not just DOJ employees, they would impact our citizens, and our safety, in every city and town in the country," said Attorney General Eric Holder.
If the cuts take place, "the FBI would be required to do less in all its programs, including against al-Qaida and its affiliated groups, as well as the growing and sophisticated threats from cyberattacks, foreign intelligence and national and transnational criminal activities," said FBI Director Robert Mueller.
Holder and Mueller expressed their concern in letters to Congress released Thursday by Senate Appropriations Committee chairwoman Barbara Mikulski, D-Md.
The automatic, across-the-board cuts � a process known as sequestration � were put into play by a bipartisan budget compromise in August 2011 that averted a default on the federal debt. But Congress failed to come up with $1.2 trillion in budget cuts by the end of 2012 to avoid the automatic cuts. A last-minute December deal between President Obama and Congress postponed the $1.2 trillion in automatic cuts until March 1. Obama is calling on Congress to enact small spending reductions, close tax loopholes and put off the deadline again. So far, Republicans have rejected the idea.
According to Mueller, across-the-board FBI reductions of $550 million "would have the net effect of cutting 2,285 employees � including 775 agents � through furloughs and a hiring freeze."
"To put these numbers in perspective, the loss of work years from the furloughs and hiring freeze ... is the equivalent of shutting down three of the FBI's largest field offices � Chicago, Miami and Baltimore," the FBI director added.
"The FBI's ability to proactively penetrate and disrupt terrorist plans and groups prior to an attack would be impacted," said an attachment to Mueller's letter. "High priority investigations would stall as workload is spread among a reduced workforce. Overseas operations would be substantially scaled back, including in-theater support in Afghanistan where U.S. military and coalition operations rely on FBI investigative and forensic programs."
The FBI director said cuts could delay background checks on prospective gun buyers and � because the government is allowed only three days to complete them before sales go through � could lead to weapons falling into dangerous hands.
Holder wrote that the Justice Department would slash the number of cases that U.S. attorneys across the nation bring by 2,600 this year and would delay the use of four new prisons. The government won't be able to activate prisons at Yazoo City, Miss., and Hazelton, W.Va., and would have to suspend the partially completed activation of prisons in Berlin, N.H., and Aliceville, Ala.
Justice Department spending would be cut by 9 percent, or $1.6 billion, through the remainder of the 2013 fiscal year.
The Justice Department says the 94 U.S. Attorney offices around the country would bring 1,600 fewer civil cases and 1,000 fewer criminal cases in the courts. U.S. Attorney offices handled over 83,000 civil cases and filed over 69,000 criminal cases in 2011, the latest year for which figures are available.
Attorney Peter Bennett, chairman of the American Bar Association's special standing committee on judicial independence, says "the net result of the cuts will be that the Justice Department will have to be much more selective in which cases it can take."
"On the criminal side, either they have to prosecute diligently or they've got a constitutional issue that allows the defendant to walk" because of the right to a speedy trial, said Bennett. "Criminal cases will be tried first while those civil cases that get filed will languish in the system. That drives up the cost of litigation and has a financial impact on the business community, which relies on efficiently functioning courts in order to do business."
DOJ regularly declines to bring smaller civil and criminal cases in order to concentrate on larger ones. Many of these declined cases get referred to state and local authorities for possible action there. So the cuts would expand a process that already goes on.
The federal Bureau of Prisons, which houses nearly 218,000 inmates, would be hit hard.
Spending would be cut by $338 million. BOP faces an average furlough of 12 days for all its 36,700 employees. This would be equivalent to loosing 5 percent of the prison staff, including 1,300 correctional officers.
The prison system will always maintain enough staff for security purposes, but intermittent partial or full lockdowns may be required, the department says. Prison officials will have to curtail drug treatment and job training. Holder warned that leaving inmates idle raises the risk of misconduct and violence and could raise taxpayer costs in the long run if inmates are released with less ability to succeed at legal occupations outside.

U.S. Election: The South Asian Factor
By Visi R. Tilak
Considering that South Asian Americans overwhelmingly supported Barack Obama in the U.S. presidential election, were they instrumental in the win?
The states that helped Mr. Obama get re-elected included those with the biggest South Asian populations, such as New York, New Jersey, California and Pennsylvania.
But in the grand scheme, the impact of the South Asian vote wasn't that great, says Sree Sreenivasan, chief digital officer at Columbia University and co-founder of the South Asian Journalists Association.
"Sure, some of the 'get out the vote' efforts, including some innovative YouTube and Facebook efforts led by Tim Dutta and others, would have helped get more South Asians to the polls, [but] the fact is that the overall numbers are still too low for the political system to take notice," Mr. Sreenivasan said.
"It's only now that the Hispanic community, which is an order of magnitude larger in size, history and impact, is getting its due, so South Asians will have to wait for some time," he added.
Irrespective of its influence on the outcome of the election, the South Asian community is becoming more active and its influence on American politics is growing. Raj Goyle, former Kansas state representative, told The Wall Street Journal's India Real Time that "the South Asian community continues to increase its political activity and last night [Nov. 6] was a great reminder of how far we have come."
Among Asian Americans as a whole, only 41% identify as Democrats yet 72% voted for Mr. Obama, according to the Asian American Election Eve Poll, which also said less than half the 800 Asian Americans polled over the pre-election weekend had been asked by a campaign, political party or community organization to vote or register to vote.
"While Barack Obama's narrative attracted Asian American voters, Mitt Romney missed an enormous opportunity to offer a direct appeal to this group," Lisa Hasegawa, executive director of the National Coalition for Asian Pacific American Community Development, said in a statement.
National CAPACD jointly ran the pre-election poll with the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund.
For South Asians specifically, more needs to be done to get people out to vote, Mr. Sreenivasan noted.
"We have to make sure there are more efforts to convert permanent residents into citizens and citizens into registered voters who actually vote. No easy task considering some of the apathy we see in parts of the community," he said.
How are South Asians going to benefit from four more years of President Obama? Theresa Thanjan, co-chairperson of South Asians for Obama, said the community will benefit from the president's drives to fix the tax code, bring about comprehensive immigration reform, support small businesses, make education more accessible and fully implement the Affordable Care Act, which aims to reduce the costs of healthcare.
Ms. Thanjan's organization SAFO cheered the election outcome. "Last night we achieved a great victory, electing Barack Obama – for a second time – to lead our nation as President! After a long and hard-fought struggle, we have prevailed and are poised to continue moving America FORWARD," it said on its Facebook page.
Unsurprisingly, the divide that exists in mainstream America is also evident in the South Asian community. Rina Shah, the spokesperson for the Republican Indian Committee, said the organization would redouble its efforts and "serve as ambassadors for the conservative principles that so many across this great nation hold dear."
"We will continue to hold policymakers accountable to our ideals, and will be relentless in our fight to keep the size of our government in check. Growing our economy, developing comprehensive immigration reform, and decreasing the tax burden on our families are just some of the tough tasks which lie ahead," she added.
Indian-American author Thrity Umrigar believes that the reason Indian-Americans supported Obama is that they seem themselves in him.
"Although he is native-born, his is the classic aspirational story, which is the story of immigrants in America. And his biracial background gives him a hybridity, which is also appealing to immigrants, who well understand the feeling of being caught between two cultures," she told India Real Time.
Mr. Obama alluded to this in his victory speech. "I believe we can seize this future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggests. We're not as cynical as the pundits believe. We are greater than the sum of our individual ambitions, and we remain more than a collection of red states and blue states. We are and forever will be the United States of America," he said.

Another Lost reunion is in the works on Hawaii Five-0.
Terry O'Quinn will reprise his role as retired SEAL Joe White on the CBS drama later this season, the network tweeted.
Returning winter shows: Where we left off and what's next
McGarrett (Alex O'Loughlin) has "a LOT" of questions for his mentor, CBS teased. That's certainly understandable, as Joe was last seen in the Season 2 finale, when he introduced McGarrett to the mysterious "Shelburne," aka McGarrett's mother.
O'Quinn most recently starred on ABC's short-lived drama 666 Park Avenue.
Are you looking forward to seeing O'Quinn back on Hawaii?

Duluth takes care of business and dumps Onion 2-0. Silly ECAC.
UNO up 2-0 over Michigan at end of 1...one shorthanded goal in the mix.
Michigan looks surprised at the speed of UNO.
Michigan scores on UNO, 5 seconds into the 2nd.
2-1 Omaha.
Geezus...Union was 0-9 on the powerplay against UMD. Ouch.
Zoomies and Yale underway in Bridgeport....
AFA skating with Yale, 5+ minutes gone in the first. Falcons need to keep it close...
Hm. This sucks. I'm having a conversation with myself. I was hoping this would be an active forum. Guess it's back to the wasteland of USCHO...
Very controversial call in the Michigan 3-2 OT victory against UNO.
CC is playing tough against BC up 3-1 with 8 minutes left in the first. Cameramen are having a tough time keeping track of the game. Both teams are fast and strong tonight.
so Shwartz is kind of having a huge game against BC. I'm a big fan of Zucker, but if it wasn't for injuries, do people think Shwartz might have won the rookie of the year? What were his stats like compared to Zucker before he got hurt?
Wow, this is the CC team that hung 9 on DU!
Looks like DU's little sister is playing like Cinderella in the 1st period. BC looks shocked.
CC is awesome so far 4-1 with a shorthanded goal in the first.
Fun times at the Golden Bee tonight.
looks like CC has the potential to pull a major upset against Boston College...the puck seems to be in CC's favor tonight
Not that I like to admit it, but it's more than puck bounces. They're dominating.
Agreed, Jordan ... This isn't luck, CC is destroying them.
That was a pretty intense first period. If both teams can keep it up for another 2 periods, the team that wins is gonna be pretty tuckered out for tomorrow's game!
CC showing the importance of compete level.
DU needs to play like that tomorrow.
Jaden Schwartz is bitch-slapping BC right now.
Wow. Seriously amazing.
CC turned the game around with their awesome power play.
DU still has the NCAA record for consecultive Tourney wins (8) along with Minnesota, BC and perhaps another school.
I certainly hope that the 4 seed in our bracket can pull this kind of performance tomorrow.
Holy smokes, 7-2
this is a massacre...kind of feeling sorry for BC
CC is kickin' butt and takin' names in this one.
UNO got jobbed.
I guess BC doesn't have much faith in their back-up goalie.
CC wins 8-4. What a performance.
BC should have taken a timeout after the third goal to settle the boyz down. Probably should have lifted Muse after the 4th goal.
how shocked is everyone after CC spanked BC. thats unreal. God I hope DU shows up tomorrow
Raises hand. Props to CC.
Frank Serratore told Air Force, "You can't win the game in the first period, but you can lose it."
BC lost their game in the first period.
The CC game is a good lesson on playing hard and getting to the net. Gotta hand it to the Tigers - that was an ass whupping of the defending champs . really impressive by CC.
Suck it BC!
I couldn't believe Coach York left his Golden Boy Muse out there in net as long as he did. Did you hear those announcers during the first 10 minutes or so, foaming at the mouth over BC and thier Goalie???
Stay classy Mexico!
I think BC thought they won it in the first 9 seconds. Props to CC. They played a great game.
Pathetic crowd in St. Louis. Hard to believe they couldn't get a better turnout than that. I am sure it was very disappointing for Barry Melrose and the rest of the East-biased ESPN clowns to see their vaunted BC boys go down so hard.
Having NCAA regionals in empty arena stinks. Having less than four days to purchase airfares excludes 98% of the hard core fans.
Best solution would be to allow the #1 seeds to host the Regionals, but there probably would be some scheduling conflicts and some college hockey arenas can only seat 2,000 people.
2nd Best solution would be to have four permanent sites. Boston, Detroit, St. Paul & Manchester.
looks like north dakota will be advancing, 4-0 at almost the end of the second period
Looks like the Sioux are playing just good enough to win. They don't appear to be straining too hard. If we win today, tomorrow's game will be a blast.
OK, I got ahead of myself...Let's win today...first things first!!!!

Kimberly Carlton sent me this photo by Seaman & Sons of Chesterfield and asked: "I purchased this photo at a garage sale in the Kansas City, Missouri area, so I don't know the subjects. The back has some faint pencil writing that I think says "Frank Wood". It looks to be around the turn of the century, but not sure. Did this photographer ever work in the USA or is this pic from the UK? And why wouldn't these people be standing next to each other, I thought that was strange how spread out they were?"
I believe, by comparing the style of the mount with others produced by this studio, that the photograph was produced at around the turn of the century, as Kim has suggested. The shape of the house looks to me to be more suited to North America than late Victorian Derbyshire. I have no evidence that any members of the extensive Seaman family spent any time in North America, and have seen no other examples of photographs taken by them outside England. I wonder if perhaps the photograph was originally taken somewhere in North America, sent to relatives back home in Derbyshire, and subsequently copied by Seaman & Sons? From the shape of the sleeves of the dresses worn by the women, I think it likely that the photograph was originally taken in the 1890s.
The more I think about it, the less I can imagine this building being in Derbyshire, England, and the more convinced I am that it is located somewhere in North America, perhaps not far from Kansas City, Missouri where Kim rescued it from a garage sale. The style of photo, with the people spread out like that, although not as common as more formal studio portraits, could, I believe, have been intended by the photographer to give more of an impression of the lifestyle of the recently arrived immigrant family to their kinfolk back home in England.
Although the subjects are nominally the four people, in the usual stiff, unsmiling poses common to both indoor studio portraits and outdoor poses of the era, the photographic artist, as he would no doubt have styled himself, is trying to convey a much "bigger picture". The saw and horse, pile of freshly sawn logs, wagon or cart pulled by pair of large horses harnessed to a wagon, waiting in the yard, the rough wooden fences in the background, perhaps enclosing the yard or an orchard, and last but not least the large, solid, two-storey house, are perhaps employed to tell a story to their relatives at home - one of hard work and just reward for their efforts, and a picture of their new life in a new land.
Judging by the lack of leaves on the trees I guess this is late autumn or winter. Is that a smudge towards the top of the photo, or perhaps smoke coming out of the chimney? A fire in the hearth would not be out of place at that time of the year. I note that there are no young children shown in the photo. The man with a beard, wearing strong shoes, a wide-brimmed hat and long coat, marked above and below with two Xs, is obviously the primary subject, and presumably man of the house. The woman with a long dress standing behind him, and slightly to his right, is probably his wife The female at the extreme left appears to be a young woman - her dress is shorter, which suggests to me that she is perhaps in her teens. Perhaps she is a daughter. The younger man with a smaller hat and shorter jacket, holding the reins may be part of the family, but he could well be an employee on the farm.
This brings to mind the story of my own gg-grandfather, Henry Payne (1842-1907), who took his wife Henrietta and children to start a new life in America in 1880. First Henry and his 13-year-old eldest son Charles Vincent (my great-grandfather) sailed from Liverpool to Philadelphia on board the S.S. British Crown, arriving on American soil on 2 March [see my transcript of the Passenger List].

Passenger List for the S.S. British Crown of the American Line, arriving at the Port of Philadelphia on 2 March 1880
According to my gg-uncle Hallam, they "took up" a farm at Bladensburg, about four miles north-west of Washington D.C. They must have moved fast to find the farm and get the crops planted by late April or early May, although the census on 7 June shows a farm labourer Thomas Cash boarding with them, and he may well have helped, driving the wagon just as the man in Kim's photo.

Henrietta had given birth to their fourth son Fred at St. James' Road in Normanton (Derbyshire, England) in December the previous year, and probably waited in Derby for Fred to get a little older, and for word from Henry, before setting out to join them. They left Liverpool in late June, they arrived at the Port of Baltimore - via Norfolk and Halifax - on 7 July aboard the SS Hibernian [see my transcript of the Passenger List], and must have joined Henry and Charlie at the farm shortly after.

Passenger List for the S.S. Hibernian of the Allan Line, arriving at the Port of Baltimore on 7 July 1880 (NB. "Allan" written incorrectly for "Hallam")
Even after the rigours of an Atlantic crossing, they do not seem to have had much time for rest and recuperation. Only two days after their arrival, Hallam fell out of "the buggy" and broke his right arm, resulting in a "four or five week stay in hospital in Washington." In the meantime, Charlie was attacked by two "niggers" (Hallam's words, not mine) on his way back from Washington. Of far greater importance, however, was the fact that the climate did not agree with Henrietta's health. They returned to England soon after Hallam's recovery, "leaving all the crops in the fields", and the UK census shows them again running the family grocery at 38 St. James' Road in Normanton by 3 April 1881.
April 1880 Census entry for Henry & Henrietta C. Payne and family at 38 St James' Road, Normanton, Derby
The trip seems to have been a disaster, and Henry apparently gave up any ideas of leaving England again. It did not, however, put off their children. Hallam, Charles Vincent and Frank, together with CV's young bride Amy, made short-lived forays to Chicago in the early 1890s [1890-1892: Chicago, Pullman & the World's Fair]. My grandfather Leslie Payne was born during this stay in Chicago, and himself returned to North America when he was a young man, spending a few years before and after the First World War in Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
Henry & Henrietta Payne in Derbyshire, England, 1898
To get back to Kim's photo, it is evocative of the experiences of many thousands of English families, and of course those from all over Europe, who arrived in America in great numbers in the latter part of the nineteeth century and built new lives for themselves. Since we only have Uncle Hallam's brief words and the rather impersonal and matter-of-fact census & passenger list entries to hint of their experiences, we must resort to our imaginations to fill in the gaps and flesh out the story a little. I can pretend for a moment or two, perhaps, that this is my own family making their way in a new land ...

Poems' art is featured in a catalog book and supplement series, available upon request only while inventory lasts. Future art will be catalogued in digital form. Please inquire for updates and additional information.
To view our catalog supplements digitally, click on the individual links below.
Poems Art Publishing, L.L.C., based in Salt Lake City, Utah, was created in 1997 by business partners, Nasser Shotorbani and Laurie Downing. Both shared a clear vision and business philosophy: to select art and artists working in truly distinctive styles, make bold creative choices, and be uncompromising in production and presentation.
From the onset, Poems brought new decorative trends to the marketplace, including a popular X-ray botanical collection by radiology technician/photographer Steven N. Meyers and, most recently, compelling digital compositions by J.P. Clive, to mention a few. Artistry from around the world is represented in Poems' contemporary collection, with an extensive variety of subject matter and mediums.
In 2010, Poems launched AlterEgos, its new division for custom Giclee printing on alternative substrates. Most imagery in the Poems collection is available for prints on demand and Poems' capabilities in this area continue to expand and grow.
In 2013, Nasser Shotorbani acquired full ownership of Poems and brought Owen Hickey on board as President.

A meditation to dance the mystery of consciousness in our moving body. Be curious to watch how it moves, feels and supports us being present in this moment . A safe space is created to tune and bring awareness of our moving bodies and enjoy allowing it to dance freely. It is a meditation integrated in the body. We see the dancer enter the dance and the dance enter the dancer. The dancer disappears and becomes the dance ..
Stillness unfolds into movement and dances into stillness

These leading companies are showing that it's both possible and profitable to tackle emission reduction in practical, forward-looking and successful ways. By 2010, they will have collectively decreased their CO2 emissions by 50 million tons, while creating competitive advantage and increasing shareholder value. These businesses are demonstrating that climate leadership makes sense for business and for the planet. They're not waiting for governments and politicians to take action - they're taking the initiative and leading the way to the inevitable low-carbon economy.

The rotavirus antigen test detects rotavirus in the feces. Rotavirus is the most common cause of infectious diarrhea in children.
There are many ways to collect stool samples. You can catch the stool on plastic wrap that is loosely placed over the toilet bowl and held in place by the toilet seat. Then you put the sample into a clean container. One type of test kit supplies a special toilet tissue to collect the sample, which is then placed in a container.
For infants and young children wearing diapers, try lining the diaper with plastic wrap. If the plastic wrap is positioned properly, it will help prevent urine and stool from mixing to provide a better sample.
The sample should be collected during the acute phase of the infection, which is the period in which diarrhea is occurring.
The sample is taken to the laboratory for evaluation.
No special preparation is necessary for this test.
The test involves normal defecation.
Rotavirus is the leading cause of gastroenteritis ("stomach flu") in children. This test is performed to diagnose a rotavirus infection.
Normally, rotavirus is not found in the stool.
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
Rotavirus in the stool indicates a rotavirus infection is present.
There are no risks associated with this test.
Because rotavirus is easily transmitted from person to person, thoroughly wash your hands after contact with a child who is infected or thought to be infected. Disinfect any surface that has been in contact with stool. A vaccine is available to help prevent severe rotavirus infection in children under 8 months old.
Monitor infants and children for signs of dehydration.
