Mike Volpi was one of the hottest executives in Silicon Valley when he left Cisco to join Joost, an online-video startup, in 2007.
Now he's back in the Silicon Valley spotlight, getting sued by Joost's founders.
Volpi now works at Index Ventures, a European venture-capital firm with strong Valley ties -- ties that came in handy when Index joined Silicon Valley investment firms Silver Lake Partners and Andreessen Horowitz to strike a deal to buy Skype, the Internet phone service, from eBay for $2.1 billion last month.
What do Joost and Skype have in common, besides the funny name? Both were founded by entrepreneurs Janus Friis and Niklas Zennström -- and both use bandwidth-sparing "peer-to-peer" technology licensed from Joltid, another company started by Friis and Zennström, to send digital content, whether phone calls or videos, more efficiently.
And both are in litigation against parties to the eBay-Skype deal.
What else do they have in common? Volpi served on Skype's board before it was bought by eBay -- and Joost's board, until very recently.
When Volpi left Joost to join Index, the departure seemed friendly, with Friis and Zennström keeping him on as chairman. But the pair reportedly hoped to buy Skype back from eBay. And shortly after the sale announcement, Joost said it was removing Volpi as chairman and investigating his actions as CEO.
Any surprise that this less-than-partial investigation turned something up? Joost now claims Volpi helped steal technology that Skype is developing to bypass Joltid's copyrighted software. (It is true that under Volpi, Joost engineers found a way to modify Joltid technology to run on the Web rather than through desktop software.) Joltid, meanwhile, is suing eBay and Skype over that same technology, saying that the auction giant is racking up $75 million in supposed damages every day.
You'll hear a lot about copyright law and contracts and licenses. But what this is really about is a big barrel of sour grapes, with two entrepreneurs who sold Skype but never really accepted that they'd given up their technological baby.
One person who's not getting sued, as of yet: Former eBay CEO Meg Whitman, who bought Skype for $2.6 billion in a deal that everyone now acknowledges was badly overpriced. How on earth did she persuade shareholders to pay that much to buy a company without the core technology it depended on?
Whitman is now running for governor of California. Her opponents in that race should ask voters if she'll be as effective in governing the state as she was in negotiating with Friis and Zennström.
And Volpi? He's no doubt sorry he ever left Cisco.

Even if the redestricting were to occur, the likelihood is that the kids in these units would go to different schools anyway. Most of our south Palo Alto schools are so overcrowded that new residents and transfers are put into Barron Park or Briones schools, west of El Camino, as those are the schools with space. If these children were to apply for kindergarten next year, then Fairmeadow school which is their neighborhood school, would have too many kindergarten registrants again as they always have and it would probably mean a lottery to get into their neighborhood school.
My kids don't play with their next door neighbors, they are in the same school - same class sometimes - and don't play together. They play with others. In fact my elementary child plays with kids further down the street that go to a different school and are in a different grade. You can't make kids best friends with their next door neighbors, it just happens.

and that with TWO old elementary school campuses in town?
The Slater closing in Mtn View by the previous district administration remains controversial, but the tenants on the two campuses that have been vacated have rental agreements that end at staggered dates in case of future need. PA certainly has the resources, do they not have the management acumen to deal with this?

text: Did you know that over 450,000 babies are born premature in the United States every year? And 15,000,000 worldwide. Because of their early arrivals preemies are more susceptible to a myriad health issues including apnea, PDA (Patent Ductus Arteriosis ) and RDS (Respiratory Distress Syndrome ). But technology and science continue to evolve. In fact, a preemie born today has a much greater chance at survival compared to only 10 years ago. Keep checking back for more factoids.

What is time, and what is the right language to describe change, in a closed system like the universe, which contains all of its observers?
Since the observers are inside the universe itself, we must formulate a "background-independent" quantum theory of gravity and cosmology , as well as the notions of time and change, to apply to a system with no fixed background, which contains all its possible observers–perhaps even one in which the laws themselves evolve as the universe does. Lee Smolin responds to Edge publisher/editor John Brockman's request to futurists to pose "hard-edge" questions that "render visible the deeper meanings of our lives, redefine who and what we are."… read more

Maybe people prefer to read about a former president than a tech visionary. The Atlantic Wire reports the George Bush memoir Decision Points outsold the highly-anticipated Walter Isaacson Steve Jobs biography in the first week of sales.
Selling 379,000 copies in just seven days, Steve Jobs sold better than any other book since last November, when both Bush's Decision Points and Jeff Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth, which each sold more that 430,000 copies in their first seven days on sale, reports The Book Seller's Philip Stone. Perhaps one had to do with the other? The anticipation for the Jobs book after his death pushed the release date up from a November release date to October 24. First day sales did so well, that Reuters speculated it would make Amazon's best-seller of 2011 list.

About NetBSD/mac68k
NetBSD/mac68k is the port of NetBSD to Apple Macintosh computers that utilize the Motorola 68k-series processor. It should run on most Macintoshes with a 68040 or 68030 processor, and on Macs with a 68020 processor (provided that they also have a 68851 PMMU). For Macs using the PowerPC processor, please take a look at NetBSD/macppc.
The mac68k port was originally known as MacBSD. It began as a port of the Berkeley Networking Release 2 (more commonly known as Net/2) with 386BSD-0.1 filling in the cracks. This was running in a basic form in the late spring of 1992. About that time, it became obvious that 386BSD was a dead end, and NetBSD looked like the way to go. The initial NetBSD merge was into the 0.8 released sources. The first formal release of NetBSD/mac68k was as a part of NetBSD 1.0. NetBSD/mac68k was the first free OS to run on a 680x0-based Macintosh, and currently supports more of these systems than any free OS.
Development activity on NetBSD/mac68k continues at its usual pace (in other words, when the volunteers find time). Much progress has been made, however, and most desktop systems can boot to a usable state.

Well, there's not really one single reason I love working with kids, and to be honest there are definitely those days that are trying, but they definitely don't detract from the extraordinary days like today.
I was surprised today by my wonderful, energetic, talkative, exuberant, etc. Drama Club kids with flowers and cards (and even candy!) to welcome me back from having my gallbladder taken out. I almost cried!
And, to top it off they did a fabulous job on the fairy tale skits they're working on for our storytime finale!
I may still be in pain, but this all made the pain seem much better. It works much better than the Vicodin has been even! I wish I could bottle today and keep it in the medicine cabinet for another day. 🙂

Tutoring/Supplemental Education in Addiction Studies
Career summary: Substance Abuse and Behavioral Disorder Counselors
Average Salary
National Average, Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics
Career Outlook
31% job growth by 2022, which is much faster than average
Earn a degree in addiction studies from an accredited college
One of the best ways to prepare for a career in addiction studies is through a college education. A Tutoring/Supplemental Education will help you develop entry level skills, general addiction studies know how and the basic addiction studies experience you need to start your career off right. You may also consider a Diploma in Addiction Studies to help you take your education and career to the next level. Please select addiction studies school below.
Why would I want an addiction studies degree?
A degree in addiction studies can prepare you for a career in substance abuse counseling or other behavioral disorder therapies.
Job Description
What does an substance abuse counselor do?
Substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors advise people who suffer from alcoholism, drug addiction, eating disorders, or other behavioral problems. They provide treatment and support to help the client recover from addiction or modify problem behaviors.
How much does an substance abuse counselor make?
The median annual wage for substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors was $38,520 in May 2012. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $25,140 and the top 10 percent earned more than $60,000.
Most substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors work full time. In some settings, such as inpatient facilities, they may need to work evenings, nights, or weekends.
Career Outlook
How popular are substance abuse counseling jobs?
Employment of substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors is projected to grow 31 percent from 2012 to 2022, much faster than the average for all occupations. Growth is expected as addiction and mental health counseling services are increasingly covered by insurance policies.
Federal legislation mandating individual health coverage may increase the number of health insurance customers. In addition, the law requires insurance plans to cover treatment for mental health issues in the same way as other chronic diseases. These factors will open up prevention and treatment services to more people who were previously uninsured, did not have these services covered, or found treatment to be cost-prohibitive. Mental health centers and other treatment and counseling facilities will need to hire more mental health counselors and marriage and family therapists in order to meet this increased demand.
Demand for substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors may also increase as states seek treatment and counseling services for drug offenders rather than jail time.
Career Path
How do I become a substance abuse counselor?
Educational requirements range from a high school diploma to a masterâs degree, depending on the setting, type of work, state regulations, and level of responsibility. Workers with a high school diploma typically go through a period of on-the-job training.
Substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors in private practice must be licensed. Licensing requirements vary by state, but all states require a masterâs degree and between 2,000 to 4,000 hours of supervised clinical experience. In addition, counselors must pass a state-recognized exam and complete continuing education every year.

Anthony's Week 1 NFL Pointspread Picks
Home team in capital letters; point spreads (opening line) in parentheses after underdog team; selections with point spreads in bold.
N.Y. GIANTS 24, Dallas 13 (+4) - The Super Bowl champion has never lost one of these prime-time openers, going 8-0 straight up and 6-1-1 against the spread - but since this obviously means that the Cowboys get the second meeting at home they could very well have the final say in the NFC East.
N.Y. JETS 17, Buffalo 7 (+3) - The Jet offense's preseason struggles have attracted a great deal of media attention, but Buffalo's offense didn't exactly light it up in August either and the Jets have won five in a row over the Bills, covering in all but one.
Philadelphia 23, CLEVELAND 6 (+9) - The Eagles are not high on my list of contenders, but they should waltz over the punchless Browns, who own the NFL's longest active Week 1 losing streak, with seven straight losses (also 0-7 against the spread) by a combined 186-95.
DETROIT 48, St. Louis 20 (+9) - The Rams are not much better than the Browns on opening day: They've lost their last five lid-lifters both ways by a combined 141-42.
New England 37, TENNESSEE 33 (+7) - An eerily similar situation pertained on last year's opening weekend, when the Steelers came in with an eight-game winning streak therein, but also as the defending Super Bowl runners-up, which had non-covered eleven consecutive season openers. Pittsburgh lost 35-7 at Baltimore - and while the Patriots, who have likewise won eight in a row on opening day, may avoid the same fate outright, the Titans remain the obvious pick to cover.
CHICAGO 28, Indianapolis 17 (+9 1/2) - The Colts have yet to win on the road in the post-Peyton Manning era (losing all eight road games in 2011 and going 3-5 against the spread) and Brian Urlacher is expected to start despite preseason arthroscopic knee surgery. You'll just have to hope that the Bears aren't looking ahead to next Thursday night's key NFC North battle in Green Bay.
MINNESOTA 16, Jacksonville 13 (+4 1/2) - Both teams have running backs with issues, and quarterbacks with a lot to prove coming off dismal rookie seasons. This one comes down to a last-minute, or even overtime, field goal.
NEW ORLEANS 42, Washington 38 (+9 1/2) - With a defense that has been devastated by bounty-related suspensions, the Saints are going to get involved in games like this all season, and the Redskins are 6-1 straight up at the Superdome. Cam Newton went 4-0-1 against the spread in his first five games, and Robert Griffin III could very well have a similarly lucrative start to his NFL career.
KANSAS CITY 26 (+2), Atlanta 10 - We saw this same movie to start last season, when the Falcons came in as road favorites at a venue where they hadn't won since 1983 (Chicago), and lost 30-12. Well not only has Atlanta never won in Kansas City, but has been outscored 108-23 in three prior visits, including a 14-3 opening-day loss there in 1991.
HOUSTON 31, Miami 7 (+10) - Not since the "Stinkston and Trash" Eagles of a decade ago has an NFL team sent out as talent-poor a collection of wide receivers as this year's Dolphins have to offer, and Miami has taken an 0-for-6 lifetime collar against Houston. This game won't be close.
TAMPA BAY 30 (+2 1/2), Carolina 23 - Josh Freeman is two years more experienced than when he led Tampa Bay to a seven-game improvement in 2010 with the aid of the league's biggest drop in strength of schedule, which the Bucs have in their favor again this year. Vincent Jackson could put up huge fantasy numbers this week.
GREEN BAY 34, San Francisco 17 (+5 1/2) - The 49ers must confront twin eight-game losing streaks vs. the Packers - in the series overall (with only one cover therein) and at Lambeau, where they haven't won since 1990 (with two covers). Green Bay has also won and covered five straight on what is officially known as "Kickoff Weekend."
ARIZONA 20 (+2 1/2), Seattle 13 - Tale of the tape: John Skelton has a whopping seven-inch height advantage on Russell Wilson (no information on how much of a reach advantage Skelton enjoys), and Marshawn Lynch may not be tasting the rainbow here courtesy of recurring back spasms. Seahawks have also had their problems on grass: 3-13 straight up and 3-11-2 against the line since 2009.
DENVER 27, Pittsburgh 14 (+1) - This would appear to be a bargain price given Pittsburgh's injury situation at running back. Peyton Manning gets it done in his Mile High debut.
BALTIMORE 21, Cincinnati 10 (+5 1/2) - Talk about massive correlations: Last year the Bengals were 0-8 straight up and 2-6 against the line versus playoff teams (including their loss at Houston in the playoffs), and 9-0 and 8-1 respectively when facing non-playoff opposition. So until proven otherwise, and unless you think that the Ravens won't make the playoffs this season, you know what to do.
San Diego 31, OAKLAND 27 (+1) - At least the league trusts the Raiders to sell out enough to give them this Monday night opener at home, but the Chargers are 8-2 both ways in their last ten at Oakland and should get a leg up on what figures to be a fight to evade the AFC West cellar.

Nothing is really lost, though, since entering the unexplored storage room would have ended your turn before searching anyways. Now that the room is explored, you can enter as a free action.

Olivier Messiaen was born on 10th December 1908. He is a pivotal figure in 20th century music. While Dmitri Shostakovich and Malcolm Arnold took an existing musical language to its ultimate expression, Messiaen created a totally new soundscape. Here, to celebrate his birthday, is an article I wrote in May this year.
Life today is all about boxes. Our working life is controlled by email inboxes and outboxes, commercial success is measured at the box office, entertainment is delivered by Xboxes, and we even get our contemporary music fix from NewMusicBox. But today's superb performance of Olivier Messiaen's L'Ascension by Julian Thomas on the organ of Norwich Cathedral reminded me of the importance of thinking outside the box.
L'Ascension is an early work by Messiaen (below) which was originally composed for orchestra as four symphonic meditations. The organ version has a different third movement to the orchestral version, and was first performed in 1936. The four movement twenty-five minute work has many of Messiaen's signature 'outside the box' features including unusually slow and sustained tempi for the first and final meditations, and the use of highly chromatic harmony throughout. In the final meditation, which is inspired by verses from St John's Gospel, the quiet, floating melody, harmonised in parallel, ascended slowly to the great Perpendicular roof of Norwich Cathedral like a prayer.
Box-like is the last description that could be applied to Norwich's awe-inspiring Anglican Cathedral. It was built by the Benedictines to a Norman ground plan, and was consecrated in 1278, but the magnificent roof and 315' high spire date from 1463 when they were rebuilt after a lightning strike destroyed the originals. The earliest reference to an organ in the cathedral dates from the 14th century, and a succession of new organs were built, and later destroyed, either by fire or deliberately through the centuries. The present organ (photo above) was constructed in 1899 by Hill, Norman and Beard and extensively rebuilt following a fire in 1938, and is eminently suited to Messiaen's rich textures.
Messiaen's complete organ works, including L'Ascension, are available in a highly recommended 6 CD budget priced set on Regis (RRC6001). Jennifer Bate plays the organs of Beauvais Cathedral and L'église Sainte Trinité in Paris, and the recordings were made in the presence of the composer.
That mention of Beauvais Cathedral provides a fascinating coda to this overgrown path. Thinking outside the box means experimenting, and experiments sometimes end in failure. This is well-illustrated by the Cathedral of St Pierre in Beauvais. This cathedral, which is in some respects the most daring achievement of Gothic architecture, consists only of a transept and choir with apse. The vaulting in the interior exceeds 150 feet in height. There is no nave, and the small Romanesque church of the 10th century known as the Basse Oeuvre occupies the site destined for the nave.
Begun in 1247, just thirty-one years before Norwich Cathedral was consecrated, the masons of Beauvais aimed outside the box by adding an extra 16 feet to the height, to make it the tallest cathedral in Europe. But the experiment failed, and work was interrupted in 1284 by the collapse of the vaulting of the choir (left), a disaster that produced a temporary failure of nerve among the artisans. In 1573 more thinking outside the box resulted in the fall of a too-ambitious central tower. Work stopped again, and little further building, other than repairs, was carried out.
Today we hate computers that crash. But both Messiaen's music, and the glorious, and uncompleted, Beauvais Cathedral, remind us that there is glory both in thinking outside the box, and sometimes failing. I was recently very moved by a commemorative exhibition of photographs 'Chernobyl, Twenty Years – Twenty Lives'. Here are the words from the introduction to that exhibition:
If all the people in the world looked in one direction only, this would have serious consequences on how mankind perceives itself. It is important that some people look around in all directions in order to describe what they see to others.
* The Messiaen performance by Julian Thomas, who is Norwich Cathedral's assistant organist, was a fund-raiser for the Cathedral Choir's US tour in October. The Cathedral Choir consists of sixteen boys (aged 8-13), all of whom attend Norwich School, and twelve men, six of whom are choral scholars. It sings regularly at six choral services a week during term and also at many of the special services held in the Cathedral – especially during Holy Week, Easter and Christmas. The choir's repertoire includes music by all the great English composers of the last five hundred years and also many works by continental composers from Josquin to Messiaen. The choir has given premières of music by many contemporary composers including Giles Swayne, John Tavener, Paul Patterson, Arvo Pärt (right -whose I am the true vine was a 1996 commission for the choir to celebrate the 900th anniversary of Norwich Cathedral), James Macmillan and Diana Burrell. The choir has toured Europe and the United States, broadcasts regularly on the BBC and features on numerous recordings.
* Churches comprising a choir and a transept without the nave make famously good recording venues. The remarkable acoustics of Merton College Chapel, Oxford, which is frequently used for recordings, are put down to the absence of a nave in this large building.
* Another remarkable church today compring a nave and chancel only is Dore Abbey on the Welsh borders which I mentioned, appropriately, in Wot no computers. Although Dore Abbey is used for occassional concerts its blissfully remote location means it is not used as a recording venue. A new organ (albeit not a pipe one) has just been installed in the Abbey, follow this link for more details and some wonderful photos.

Same-sex marriage supporters. (Photo Credit: AP)
Ballot measures legalizing same-sex marriage passed in Maryland and Maine Tuesday, marking the first time the practice became legal through a popular vote following unsuccessful attempts in 32 different states since 1998.
"For the first time, voters in Maine and Maryland voted to allow loving couples to make lifelong commitments through marriage - forever taking away the right-wing talking point that marriage equality couldn't win on the ballot," Chad Griffin of the Human Rights Campaign, a national gay-rights group, told the Associated Press.
Earlier this year, Barack Obama became the first sitting president to endorse the legalization of same-sex marriage. Same-sex marriage is currently legal in six states and the District of Columbia through laws passed by the legislature or court orders.
In late October, a poll conducted for The Baltimore Sun found that Maryland voters were evenly divided on whether to make same-sex marriage legal, with opposition rising in recent weeks despite the outspoken support of Democratic Governor Martin O'Malley and House Minority Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer. With 93 percent reported, 52 percent supported Maryland's Question 6 legalizing same-sex marriage, according to The Baltimore Sun. Voters supported same-sex marriage in Maine 53 to 47 percent Tuesday.
At 1:14am, The Seattle Times reported that initial returns in Washington state showed Referendum 74 appearing to be winning approval. Ref. 74 would allow same-sex couples to apply for marriage licenses in Washington as early as Dec. 6.

1. Introduction
The analysis of assessment methods is an effervescent aspect of pedagogical inquiry into higher education teaching practices. At the heart of any such analysis must be a clear recognition of the objectives or purpose of assessment. The most obvious function of assessment is as a means of gauging student progress or learning. However, despite the undeniable truth of this statement, a crucial role of assessment is to serve as a means of supporting, encouraging and improving the learning process, rather than simply acting as a method of measuring its extent. Clearly an immediate issue that arises here is the familiar distinction between summative and formative methods of assessment. However, in practice, the border between the two is blurred as all assessment, irrespective of whether it counts towards a final module mark, must clearly seek to develop understanding and assist the learning process. Consequently, consideration of 'learning' provides a starting point in the analysis of assessment.
For those not cognisant with the associated 'learning' literature, a recommended starting point is Weinstein and Mayer (1986) and their identification of four categories of cognitive learning strategies: rehearsal, elaboration, organisation and comprehension monitoring. Ostensibly, rehearsal refers to the repetition of information; elaboration and organisation emphasise the union of the new understanding with that which preceded it; comprehension monitoring evaluates the knowledge that has been acquired. This variety of options offers significant scope to consider the extent to which they can be embedded within one single methodology, which could provide the instructor with a straightforward system to appraise any single assessment choice. However, whilst it is important to refer to such possibilities, it is not the primary purpose of this chapter to explore them. Instead, such studies and the insights they provide will be recognised as offering a potential structure for assessment design and will be referred as necessary later in this chapter, but will not be considered in detail. Rather, the aim here is to provide an overview of basic 'summative' assessment issues, with this then applied to several case studies in order to provoke a debate conducive with the economics instructor further developing the methods that they employ.
To fulfil this aim, the chapter will proceed as follows. In the following section, some general points relating to assessment will be examined. This will involve discussion of the role of technology and the uncertainty associated with its future impact, along with the bigger picture concerning the role of assessment and the limitations and strengths of specific assessment. The following section moves on to consider more 'structural' issues, reflecting upon both practicalities and the pedagogical literature. The analysis will then proceed to present specific case studies which not only highlight a range of issues raised previously, but also provide examples of practice and a statistical analysis of the impact of differing assessment schemes.

Ya know in this day and age when things are so final it's nice to see Danny Boyle keeping things loose when it comes to the question of if "28 Months Later" will happen. According to Boyle there's a 40/60 chance that the film will happen. He also said that he doesn't like zombie movies. He also kind of sounds like a prick. So that's all confirmed now.
The much discussed anthology flick "The ABC's of Death" will finally find its way onto DVD and Blu-Ray on May 21st. For those of you who are jerks and didn't listen to our podcast on the film, it's 26 different shorts each showing one special way to die for every letter in the alphabet. I have no idea why you wouldn't want to listen to the podcast though. Think of my hilarious comments but in sound form. I'm almost jealous that you actually get to hear me and I just have to be me.
The post for Bobcat Goldthwait upcoming found footage flick "Willow Creek" has hit the nets and it looks pretty sweet. It's got all kind of bigfoot action and at first I was disapointed to find out that it has nothing to do with the monster truck but then I got over it. Then I ate some graham crackers.
XLrator Media has picked up the U.S. distribution rights to "The Banshee Chapter", a new 3D flick from first time writer/director Blair Erickson. The film follows a young journalist searching for her friend who has been experimenting with mind-altering drugs in a secret government test. The story is supposedly based on real witness testimonies and is 100% bullcrap and shouldn't be trusted. I don't want to believe.

Gone is the era when wedding party thank-you gifts automatically meant sparkly necklaces for the bridesmaids and monogrammed flasks for the guys. Today's gifts can even be luxe services (think hair and makeup or hot towel shaves) or über-thoughtful gestures (covering their hotel room during your event) rather than an object. But if you like the idea of giving your attendants something they can both have and hold, these expert ideas should get you headed down the right path.
If you're really at a loss, gift cards have the advantage of letting your friends choose exactly what they want, says Elise Mac Adam, author of "Something New: Wedding Etiquette for Rule Breakers, Traditionalists, and Everyone In Between" (Simon Spotlight Entertainment, 2008). But they're also a bit impersonal, so, instead, consider a gift certificate for something more specific, like a series of Pilates or crafting classes or tickets to the theater, a music festival or a major sporting event. In addition, it may help to know that you're welcome to select different gifts for each individual based on their personality or interests – for example, a first-edition book for the reader or even an amazing pot for the cook.
Another option is to be both thoughtful and, well, a little "self-serving" (i.e. gifts your crew can use during the wedding but that are also useful afterward), "almost like nice souvenirs," says Mac Adam. For example, wedding planner Susan Cordogan of Chicago-based Big City Bride suggest thanking your guys with matching ties, bow-ties, socks and/or pocket squares, but also think cool hats, scarves, wooden sunglasses (or Ray Bans!) or colorful shoes, which can make for some fun photos. For the ladies, the Big City Bride team recommends matching or personalized jewelry (think statement bracelets and earrings), wraps, a monogrammed Longchamp bag for schlepping around all their wedding weekend needs, or a luxurious monogrammed bathrobe, which will ensure some great group getting ready shots.
If you're on a tight budget, a nice picture frame with a commemorative photo in it is always a safe choice, says Mac Adam. She also suggests looking to websites that will allow you to use pictures or text to customize everything from coffee mugs and beer glasses to journals, iPhone cases, tote bags, wooden puzzles, guitar picks and more. And don't forget about subscriptions to favorite magazines, adds Cordogan.
If you have a little more to spend, devices like an iPod Nano stocked with your favorite tunes or a fully loaded (many versions have removable USB drives) and monogrammed Swiss army knife are great for both bridesmaids and groomsmen.

In November 2009 the U.S. Catholic Bishops approved a pastoral letter called "Marriage: Love and Life in the Divine Plan." The letter presents the essential points of Catholic teaching on marriage as a natural gift, as a sacrament, and as a public commitment between a man and a woman. It also discusses several contemporary challenges to marriage and how the Church addresses those challenges.

CLASSICS 168: Engineering the Roman Empire (ARCHLGY 118)
(Formerly CLASSART 117.) Enter the mind, the drafting room, and the building site of the Roman architects and engineers whose monumental projects impressed ancient and modern spectators alike. This class explores the interrelated aesthetics and mechanics of construction that led to one of the most extensive building programs undertaken by a pre-modern state. Through case studies ranging from columns, domes and obelisks to road networks, machines and landscape modification, we investigate the materials, methods, and knowledge behind Roman innovation, and the role of designed space in communicating imperial identity.

CLASSICS 174: Art and Religious Experience in Byzantium and Islam (ARTHIST 209, ARTHIST 309)
This course presents a comparative study of Christian and Islamic paradigms (sixth to the thirteenth centuries) in the construction of religious experience through the material fabric of the building, the interior decor, objects, and rituals. We will read medieval ekphrastic texts and poetry, which stirred the viewer/participant to experience the building/object as animate. Among the sites we will study are: Hagia Sophia, the Ka'ba, the Dome of teh Rock, the Mosque at Damascus and at Cordoba. We will read Byzantine and Arabic writers such as Paul the Silentiary, Patriarch Germanos, Maximus Confessor, Shahrawardi, and Ibn Arabi.

COMPLIT 51Q: Comparative Fictions of Ethnicity (AMSTUD 51Q, CSRE 51Q)
We may "know" "who" we "are," but we are, after all, social creatures. How does our sense of self interact with those around us? How does literature provide a particular medium for not only self expression, but also for meditations on what goes into the construction of "the Self"? After all, don't we tell stories in response to the question, "who are you"? Besides a list of nouns and names and attributes, we give our lives flesh and blood in telling how we process the world. Our course focuses in particular on this question--Does this universal issue ("who am I") become skewed differently when we add a qualifier before it, like "ethnic"?

What does pervasive animal imagery tell us about how we relate to the world and our neighbors? How do animals define the frontiers of humanity and mediate notions of civilization and culture? How do culture, institutions, and political economy shape concepts of human rights and animal welfare? And, above all, what does it mean to be human in the pluralistic and planetary 21st century?
