Places, Earth
State Parks, Historic Sites, and Museums need your help. Throughout the country, state parks, historic sites, museums, and similar institutions are struggling to continue operating. Because of general financial problems, many of these institutions are operating on a reduced schedule or in danger of closing. Some are being forced to sell off artifacts and property. Many will not weather these hard times without your help. Places Earth urges everyone to support these vital and important public resources any way you can. Please donate your treasure, time, and talent. Write to your governor and other elected officials telling them to find a way to keep state parks open. It will be your loss.

Mission Tejas State Park, in east Texas, is home to several historic structures, including the first Spanish Mission in Tejas (Texas). Mission San Francisco de los Tejas was established in 1690 and abandoned after about three years. The original site of the Mission is not known and may not be within park boundaries, but the park does contain a replica of the Mission church that was built by the CCC in 1934. Mission Tejas State Park is a 363.5-acre park in Houston County, 22 miles northeast of Crockett. The park was built in 1934 and 1935 by Co. 888 of Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) as a commemorative representation of the Mission. The park was acquired from the Texas Forest Service in 1957 by Legislative Act and open to the public. The park sits beside the Old San Antonio Road, a major connection between Spanish East Texas and Mexico from 1690 to 1820 and later brought Americans into Texas. Within the park is the restored Rice Family Log Home which was originally built near here (16 miles southwest near Crockett). Joseph Redmund Rice, Sr. constructed the cabin between 1828 and 1838 and it is one of the oldest structures in the area. The home served as a stopover for travelers along the Old San Antonio Road across Texas. The house was moved to this location and restored in 1974.

The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga seeks to encourage and sustain an academic environment that respects individual freedoms and promotes the health, safety, and welfare of its students, faculty, and staff. In keeping with these objectives, the University has established guidelines and policies governing the possession and consumption of drugs and/or alcoholic beverages on University property.
The UTC Student Handbook strictly prohibits the possession, use, or distribution of drugs or narcotics, including stimulants and depressants, on University owned or controlled property, except as allowed by the law. Both the UTC Student Handbook and the University Personnel Policies and Procedures Manual specifically prohibit the possession and/or use of alcoholic beverages on University owned property. Students who use and/or possess drugs and/or alcohol on campus may face disciplinary sanctions and criminal charges (when legal violations occur in addition to policy violations.)
The Counseling and Career Center offers a variety of programs and services that address issues including alcohol, substance abuse, crisis intervention, and other personal problems. The Center, in conjunction with Student Affairs, co-sponsors Alcohol Awareness Week and Drug Awareness Week on an annual basis. Also, the Center uses other programming and support groups as resources for preventing, confronting, or solving substance abuse and other problems. The Center has professional staff members with specific expertise in the area of substance abuse control. Services are confidential and often free for students. For more information contact the Counseling Center.
According to Tennessee State Law, it is unlawful for any person under the age of 21 years to have in such person's possession or transport any intoxicating liquor for any purpose. This section shall not be construed as prohibiting any person 18 years of age or older from transporting, possessing, selling or dispensing intoxicating liquor in the course of such person's employment. A violation of this law is a Class A misdemeanor and can be punished with a fine up to $2500, 11 months 29 days in jail, mandatory attendance in a substance abuse program, possible community service and loss of driver's license until the age of 21. Any person who purchases an alcoholic beverage for or at the request of a person under 21 years of age commits a misdemeanor and, upon conviction for such person's first such offense, shall be punished by a fine of not less than $25 nor more than $500 and by not more than 30 days of community service work.
It is unlawful for any person who is younger than 21 years of age to purchase or attempt to purchase any alcoholic beverage. A violation of this law is a Class A misdemeanor and can be punished with a fine up to $2500 and 11 months 29 days in jail. Any person under 21 years of age who knowingly makes a false statement or exhibits false identification to the effect that he is 21 years old or older to any person engaged in the sale of alcoholic beverages for the purpose of purchasing or obtaining the same commits a misdemeanor.
If the person violating this subsection is less than 18 years of age, that person shall be punished by a fine of $50 or not less than 20 hours of community service work.
When an officer suspects that a driver has been drinking, that driver is asked to take a breath or blood test to determine the presence of alcohol or drugs in the body. Under Tennessee law, a driver is presumed to be under the influence if the alcohol test shows a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08% or more. The following penalties are applicable when one is convicted of a first DUI offense. Subsequent and more severe penalties apply for additional convictions.
· Jail sentence of 48 hours (minimum) up to 11 months and 29 days (maximum).
· Fine of $350 up to $1500, plus court costs, attorney fees, and increased
insurance rates.
· Loss of driving privilege for one year.
· Restitution to DUI victim and possible community service work.
· If at the time of such offense the alcohol concentration in such person's blood or breath is .20% or more, the minimum period of confinement for such person shall be 7 consecutive calendar days.
It is unlawful for any person to possess any open alcoholic beverage container or to consume any alcoholic beverage in the passenger area of any motor vehicle (including possession or consumption by the driver of the vehicle) located on a public highway, or the right-of-way of a public highway, in this state.
"Open container" means any container containing alcoholic beveragesor beer, the contents of which are immediately capable of being consumed or the seal of which has been broken. "Public highway or right-of-way of a public highway" means the entire width between the right-of-way boundary lines of every way publicly maintained when any part thereof is open to the use of the public for purposes of vehicular travel.

Reading the Western Landscape - Current Books
September 15, 2010
News from the Library
The Reading the Western Landscape Book Group explores the portrayal of western North American landscape in fiction, non-fiction, and poetry. The group generally meets the 1st Wednesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. at the Arboretum Library. See the dates below. There will be some Saturdays as well. The group uses the Shared Inquiry™ method developed by the Great Books Foundation. The chosen book of the month must be read in order to participate. New members welcome.
Please RSVP to the librarian, Susan Eubank via phone at 626-821-3213 or via email if you plan on attending the book group discussion.
Books that the group has previously discussed can be found here.
Current Book
Wednesday, July 10, 2013, 7:00 p.m.
Telegraph Avenue by Michael Chabon; New York: Harper, 2012
"Chabon is one of the most gifted painters in the history of American literature [...]Such vividness doesn't require a wide field of play, just a few square miles of the Bay Area and a bottomless empathy for its inhabitants. [...He] writes so well about music […]; his talent […]is for performance, in the sense that his language dazzles and challenges and delights[...] That's how the novel's conclusion, a decidedly mixed one for Brokeland Records, comes to feel redemptive, even triumphant. That's how, […]the audience in front of the page can enjoy that aftermath free from the burdens of nostalgia, discovering in those broken pieces something quite beautiful indeed." — from James Santel, Los Angeles Review of Books.
Future books
Wednesday, August 14, 2013, 7:00 p.m.
The Distance Between Us by Reyna Grande; New York : Atria Books, 2012.
"The narrative of Latin America poverty and the "broken beauty" of places like Iguala is buried deep in the psyche of Los Angeles and other U.S. cities. Our recent history has been shaped by Latino immigration. We live amid a million unknown tales of family longing, loss, ambition and dysfunction. Grande relentlessly mines this thematically rich terrain in [the book.] With two deeply flawed adults at its center […]it's a brutally honest book that avoids the sentimentality that permeates many Latino immigrant narratives." — from Hector Tobar, LATimes.com.
Wednesday, September 11, 2013, 7:00 p.m.
Magnificence by Lydia Millet; New York: W.W. Norton & Co., 2013.
"[...She] is a deft stylist, and her observations take place so close to the personal as to unearth surprising truths in even the most over-scrutinized things, inviting quotation in the form of aphorism. On the love between husbands and wives, she writes: "It was the kind of love that gazed up at you from the bare white flood of your headlights — a wide-eyed love with the meekness of grass-eaters." Without the grass-eaters of course, this startling explanation could not take place, and part of [her] project is to expose what other creatures can help us understand about ourselves. Taxidermy […] is a ready-made synecdoche for her exploration of extinction, preservation, and endangerment. "—from Jenny Hendrix, The Boston Globe.
Wednesday, October 2, 2013, 7:00 p.m.
El Iluminado: A Graphic Novel by Ilan Stavans & Steve Sheinkin; New York: Basic Books, ©2012.
"[...] Stavans is thrust into a fictional mystery about a group of real people whose history is largely unknown to most
Americans: the "crypto-Jews" of New Mexico. Steve Sheinkin, with an appealing palette of earth-toned colors, creates the illustrated world in which this story unfolds. "What interests me in all this is the way people create stories to survive, to affirm who they are, to make a stand," "That's what authenticity is all about: the personal belief that each of us is unique, that deep inside there's a light that guides our path." That light burns also in certain New Mexico homes, where people have lighted candles on Friday evenings for generations — without knowing exactly why they're doing so." — from Hector Tobar, LATimes.com.
Wednesday, November 6, 2013, 7:00 p.m
Holy Land: A Suburban Memoir by D. J. Waldie; New York: W.W. Norton, 1996.
"[...] unlike any ever written on the architectural and civic makeup of Southern California. In 316 brief, numbered entries, […he] relates the history of Lakewood's first major post-war suburban housing development, and of his own family's history there[…]. He is also defending suburban living and its architecture against the familiar charge that it is fundamentally about escapism and materialism. […] he writes. "But they were wrong." The houses in Lakewood […] instead gave their owners just "enough space to reinvent themselves." In other ways the book and [his] personal story cut against the grain of typical suburban history. […He] is deeply reflective and unusually settled; there is a rooted constancy to his life and to his writing."— from Christopher Hawthorne, LATimes.com.
Wednesday December 4, 2013, 7:00 p.m.
Cold Starry Night: An Alaska Memoir, 2nd ed. , by Clair Fejes; Kenmore, WA: Epicenter Press, 2007.
"In 1946, young Claire Fejes was a painter and sculptor in New York City. […She] went—to Fairbanks, last stop on the Alaska Railroad, in the heart of the immense northern territory, where Joe Fejes intended to mine for gold. In her […]memoir, Fejes tells of a remote outpost where a hardy breed of Alaskans overcomes loneliness and of her own soul-aching artistic and cultural isolation. She describes characters such as Eva McGown, a one-woman social-service agency who wears powerful violet perfume and speaks with a sweet Irish brogue; and Fabian Carey, a trapper who loves the wilderness as fervently as he does opera, literature, and art. Like her vivid paintings, the author portrays the men and women for whom survival and self-sufficiency is foremost in post-war Alaska".— from Publisher's website.

Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes got close on the set of The Place Beyond the Pines last month - and now they've been spotted spending time together off-screen, too!
The 30-year-old actor and his 37-year-old co-star visited Disneyland together on Saturday (September 3), where they rode rides, snacked on cotton candy and corn on the cob, and checked out a Little Mermaid adventure, Us Weekly reports.
A source tells the mag that the two have "been friends for a long time" and that there's always been "this strong chemistry between them".
Back in October, Ryan took Blake Lively out for a fun evening at Disneyland, too!

"Complexity's Business Model," by Julie Wakefield. Scientific American, January 2001, pages 31-32.
This article describes how businesses have been using tools from the mathematical area of complexity research to improve efficiency. "[C]omplexologists resort to numerical simulations or models of one type or another, incorporating tools such as genetic algorithms, artificial and neural networks, and ant systems," the article says. One of the main purveyors of these techniques is the Bios Group, founded by Stuart Kauffman of the Santa Fe Institute, a hotbed of complexity research. The Bios Group is "modeling everything from supply chains to shop floors to battlefields," the article says.

Tool Belts & Pouches
Tool belts from Craftsman, Task Force and Leathercraft are available in affordable vinyl and durable leather. Our selection includes tool belts configured for house framers, general carpenters and electricians. Most feature one or more hammer loops, and they can be accessorized with tool pouches. If you need to add a hole to tighten your tool belt or you enjoy leatherworking, leather punches from Neiko, eToolscity or Tekton can do the job. Rotating-head leather punches and sets of punches work on leather, plastic and some metals. Keep your tools in easy reach with useful tool accessories.

Keep tools handy with the right tool pouches
Tool pouches for your belt give you ready access to the tools you use most often and to a supply of nails. Our selection includes nylon pouches and many that are made from genuine leather and suede. These handsome tool belt add-ons come in various configurations, so you can organize your tools in the way that makes sense for the work you do. The Craftsman 10 Pocket leather pouch keeps all the pockets on one hip. The 11 Pocket suede carpenter's apron wraps the tools around your waist. These are just two of the many multipocket pouches available. Single tool pouches like a utility knife holder or a drill holster can be added to complete your tool belt rig.
Many of the tool pouches have hammer loops, and you'll love our selection of hammers to hang on them. Claw hammers in all sizes and weights are available. These include affordable hammers for projects around the house and professional-grade framing and carpentry hammers. Specialty hammers include ballpeen hammers with wood, steel or composite handles for metal workers, chisel hammers and soft-faced hammers for finished surfaces. Sledges and rubber mallets round out the options for getting work done at home, in your shop or on the job site.
If your work requires assembly, then hex keys are essential. Standard and metric hex key sets from Craftsman, Eklind and Allen give you the right size for every fastener head. The number of hex tools in the sets ranges from seven to more than 25. Many sets come with their own mountable rack or bench top holder. Sets like the Allen 14-pc hex key set feature ergonomic handles to give you comfortable leverage. Hex keys with extra-long handles get to hard-to-reach hex heads. The ratcheting handles on some Craftsman sets reduce hand fatigue. Fold-up hex tools are compact and handy.
Multi tools from Leatherman are very popular. They take the Swiss army knife concept to the next level with blades, pliers and more. We have more than 300 for you to peruse. You'll find a multi tool with the functions you want for work, fishing or other pursuits. There are many multi tool color choices including blue, flame orange and pink. Bare tools, sheaths and combination sets give you buying options for yourself or for someone you plan to give a Leatherman multi tool to.
When you need new tools or a pouch to hold the ones you have, you know Sears will have what you want. Our selection is unsurpassed, and our prices are always competitive. Place your order for tools and accessories today, and they'll soon be working hard for you.

Did you ever wonder why we have more thunderstorms during the spring and summer? It's because weather patterns are more active as they move through during these seasons, especially in the afternoon and evening. The weather conditions also increase the potential for lightning to strike people at work or play outdoors and possibly while they're inside a building. Hot, humid days with cold fronts approaching provide especially dangerous conditions for storms.
More than 30 high school students from four states will participate in the Western Kentucky University Department of Agriculture's Agriculture Students Striving for Effective Tomorrows Conference in June.
LaRue County 4-H was well represented at the Area 4-H Variety Show in Washington County.
Five LaRue County 4-H members participated, each bringing home either Champion or Reserve Champion honors.
The wheat disease Fusarium head blight or head scab is at significant levels in many wheat fields across LaRue County and the state.
FHB attacks wheat near and in the flowering stage. It can be particularly severe during wet weather. The continued wet, cloudy conditions the last few weeks provided excellent conditions for infection and likely favored multiple infection periods, which has resulted in a lot of disease development.
The human voice is a wonderful thing. Man is the only animal to which God gave the gift of speech. With his voice man is able to say "I love you," sing praises to God, make his wishes known, express appreciation, pray to God and preach the unsearchable riches of God.
It would have been wonderful to have lived on the earth when Jesus was here and have heard his voice. Surely it was rich, full and vibrant. But there is something more important than the sound of the voice and it is what you say with that voice.
The second free Movie Night, sponsored by the City of Hodgenville and The LaRue County Herald News, is Saturday.
The event coincides with the Goodtime Cruisers classic car cruise-in which will spotlight muscle cars.
The movie begins at 7 p.m.
Last month's movie "Stuart Little" was geared toward children. This weekend's movie is the classic suspense film "North by Northwest."
Campbellsville University plans to open a satellite campus in Hodgenville later this year.
John Chowning, CU's vice president for church and external relations, said representatives of the four-year Christian institution have "been in conversations with local leaders about offering post secondary classes" for several weeks.
Classes will be held in the former Farm Service Agency building on Old E'town Road, which was donated to the college by Paul Hilpp, a general contractor from Lebanon.
Andy, the K-9 officer of the LaRue County Sheriff's Department, is now a nationally certified drug dog.
Andy and his handler, Deputy Russell McCoy, attended a day-long session in Murfreesboro last week. The 3-year-old Belgian Malinois did a "great" job at locating the different kinds of drugs hidden at the training center, McCoy said.
Although Andy has worked numerous drug cases in LaRue and surrounding counties, his designation as a "National Narcotics Detective Dog" gives his nose for drugs more credence in matters of search and seizure.
Residents have the chance to make a one-of-a-kind Lincoln Bicentennial souvenir when a nationally known basket weaver holds classes in Hodgenville next month.
Martha Wetherbee, an expert in the design, creation and history of Shaker baskets, will provide materials and instruction in creation of the "Lincoln Bicentennial Penny Basket," honoring the 200th anniversary of the birth of native son Abraham Lincoln.
The penny basket will be 4 1/2-inches in diameter and can be made in one day.
One of LaRue County's oldest cemeteries sits atop a small hill in Leafdale, shaded by ancient oaks and overgrown with poison ivy and saw briars.
Little Mount Cemetery hasn't had a burial since 70-year-old Kate Friend died in 1916. But most of the 90-or-so tombstones are inscribed with dates from the mid-1800s. Among the dead are Civil War soldiers, a playmate of Sarah Lincoln, a traveling salesman and the first sheriff of LaRue County.

Chris Christie knocks President Obama's inaugural speech
The brief honeymoon between New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and President Obama appears to be over.
The Republican lawmaker slammed Obama's second inaugural address earlier this week, calling it excessively partisan.
"Instead of trying to bring people together it was a manifesto for, 'Hey, it's my way or the highway,' " Christie said during a radio interview reported by PolitickerNJ.
"We're going to see how he acts moving forward," Christie said.
The comments were some of the first critical words Christie has lobbed at Obama since the landfall of Hurricane Sandy late last year. In the storm's immediate aftermath, the pair was effusive of one another, pledging to coordinate closely on a storm response.
That embrace, shortly before the presidential election, drew criticism from many Republicans. But it also earned Christie widespread applause in his liberal-leaning home state, where a Quinnipiac poll released earlier this week showed him with a 74 percent approval rating. That spike in popularity appeared to have scared off Newark Mayor Cory Booker from challenging Christie for the governor's mansion next year, making Christie a favorite for reelection.

Burack Distinguished Lecture Series
News & events
Arrangement Guidelines
Contact Information: |
Gary Derr, 347 Waterman, 802-656-8937, firstname.lastname@example.com |
Laura Smith, 348 Waterman, 802-656-2212, firstname.lastname@example.com |
Account: |
For chartstring information contact Laura Smith at 802-656-2212 or email@example.com |
Travel: |
Air: Please use UVM Travel to make airline reservations. The faculty host will need to use his/her UVM Purchasing Card. The charge should be reallocated to the Burack Lecture Series chartstring. Information about purchasing airfare on the UVM PurCard can be found in the Airfare Guidelines. We strongly suggest purchasing refundable tickets. Rental Car: To make rental car arrangements please contact Dave Torrey, UVM's Thrifty Car Rental contact. Dave can be reached at email@example.com or 802-656-8650. Personal Vehicle Usage: Mileage on a personal vehicle is reimbursable at $.555 per mile for FY13. The miles driven and any gas receipts should be included with the travel expense receipts submitted. Please see the Reimbursement section for more information. Lodging: The faculty host should reserve a room at the Sheraton Burlington Hotel & Conference Center (1-866-500-0265) using the host's PurCard. Please indicate that you are with the University of Vermont in order to receive the discounted rate. Rooms should be booked for no more than three nights and should not exceed $125 per night. Any overages will be cost-shared with the host department. Only room, meals and taxes are reimbursable. Please note that UVM is state tax exempt (city tax is applicable.) State tax charges should not appear on the final hotel invoice. |
On-Campus Parking: |
If the speaker will need on-campus parking access while visiting campus contact Laura Smith to make arrangements. The parking pass will be sent directly to the host. |
Expenditures: |
Budgeting for each lecture is tracked through the President's Office at the end of the semester. Because many of the costs are not within the hosts' control, hosts should stay within budget for the following two categories:
Any overages in these categories will be cost-shared with the host department. Please note that alcohol may only be paid for with the President's Discretionary Gift Fund and must have prior approval. Laura Smith will email the Alcohol Approval Form to the host. Official off-campus functions where alcohol is served must be carried out by someone holding a valid liquor license. An itemized receipt and signed credit card slip must be provided and the tax must be removed from the bill, as UVM is state tax exempt. Employees will not be reimbursed for alcohol purchases outside of these parameters. |
Honorarium and Lecturer Host Expense Reimbursement: |
The host should work with their Business Manager to process expenses. All related PurCard expenses should be reallocated to the Burack chartstring (Laura Smith will email the chartstring to the host.) The honorarium for the speaker is $2,500. To have an honorarium check issued to the speaker the host or Business Manager should submit a purchase requisition in PeopleSoft. Please be sure to complete the Employee Versus Independent Contractor Form and submit with the purchase requisition in PeopleSoft. University best practice is to process the honorarium check after the lecture is completed to avoid unnecessary paperwork in the event of a cancellation or delay. Out of pocket expense reimbursements for the speaker should be submitted to Procurement on a Check Request Form (found on the UVM Procurement website: http://www.uvm.edu/~procure/) together with original receipts and a note explaining the expenses with list of attendees. Please review the UVM Travel Policy for more information. |
Lecture: |
Each faculty host should select dates and times that do not conflict with religious holidays, university breaks, etc. (see UVM Academic Calendar). Please contact Laura Smith to learn when other lectures are scheduled. Ideally Burack Lectures are not scheduled within the same week. Once the date is confirmed, please contact Renee Bourassa in Conference & Event Services at 802-656-0856 or email@example.com to assist with room arrangements for the lecture and reception. |
Student Contact: |
There should be an opportunity for graduate students to interact with the speaker. We recommend an informal lunch. It is also appropriate to invite undergraduate students if you wish. The host may also elect to build a schedule for the lecturer involving guest speaking at various classes and department visits. |
Reception: |
There should be a reception for each speaker following the main lecture. This provides an opportunity for faculty, staff, and students to meet the speaker and share ideas. The faculty host should contact Renee Bourassa in Conference & Event Services at 802-656-0856 or email@example.com for specific information and assistance. |
Advertising: |
About 30 days before the lecture Laura will send a Poster Format Form which requests details regarding the lecture (due three weeks prior to date of lecture.) 300 copies of our standard 11x17 Burack Lecture poster printed will be printed. Twenty-five posters will be forwarded to the host, the rest will be distributed using campus distribution lists including Deans, Directors, and Department Chairs and Residential Life. The lecture will also be advertised on the electronic info screens around campus and included in the UVM Bored Calendar, This Week@UVM, the Campus Calendar and the Burack Lecture Series website. The faculty host may choose to advertise the lecture to appropriate University units. If the host purchases off-campus advertising, these costs should be charged to the host budget. Note: lecture attendance has been growing without the use of additional advertising. |
Video Recording: |
With the lecturers' consent, all lectures are recorded and posted on the Burack Lecture Series website at the end of the semester. It is the host's responsibility to gain prior approval from the speaker to record the lecture. Contact Renee Bourassa know in advance at (802-656-0856) or firstname.lastname@example.com to arrange for the lecture to be videotaped and to obtain a copy of the permission form for the lecturer to sign. |
Deaf & Disability Accommodations: |
Arrangements can be made for a sign language interpreter or other accommodations. Please contact Conference & Event Services at email@example.com or 802-656-5665 to make arrangements. |
Commemorative Gift: |
Each lecturer will receive a Vermont gift basket. The host may choose to present the gift at the lecture or make arrangements for the Dean or Department Chair to do so on behalf of the University of Vermont The gift will be delivered to the host about two weeks before the event along with 25 event posters. |

Notre Dame embarrassed at home by Georgetown
(MCT) — SOUTH BEND, Ind. — They'll trudge through snow for an 8 a.m. Tuesday meeting, to be followed by an afternoon session. No one is quite sure what Notre Dame will do at either point. Because the coach, in the locker room, said he didn't know where to start.
Side effects such as dizziness may occur after losses like a 63-47 bludgeoning by Georgetown on Monday. Two weeks ago, the Irish looked poised for an upper-floor Big East finish. Two weeks later, they look like they walked into an empty elevator shaft, suffering their worst home defeat in almost four years.

A 15 year old boy was killed on Monday night in the Jane St. and Finch area at a TCHC complex and there are questions whether this was a targeted or random shooting. Either way, councillor Josh Matlow wants city council to address violence among youth in Toronto. He has been trying to push an anti-violence initiative before this shooting, but is now planning to ask municipal officials to create a youth violence strategy as well as more community groups and an anti-racism plan. Matlow will ask city councillors to demand an update on the response from the city and the province regarding a 2008 report titled "Roots of Youth Violence."This shooting also prompted NDP MP Olivia Chow to release a statement: "Sadly, he is the third youth killed by guns in Toronto this year. To prevent youth violence, we must do more."

Published in AIDS Weekly, May 19th, 1997
Educational strategies to prevent transmission of HIV and other sex-related diseases, therefore, encourage women at high risk for acquiring such diseases to insist that their partners use condoms. This prompted concern, however, that these women may, in turn, abandon their use of hormonal contraceptives.
A recent Centers for Disease Control (CDC) study found, however, that few women discontinued their use of hormonal methods for birth control ("Relation of Condom Promotion for Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Sexually Transmitted Disease Prevention to Contraceptive Practices Among Women -- Selected...

Time Variation In Liquidity: The Role Of Market Maker Inventories And Revenues
Source: Fordham University
Paper shows that market-maker balance sheet and income statement variables explain time variation in liquidity, suggesting liquidity-supplier financing constraints matter. Using 11 years of NYSE specialist inventory positions and trading revenues. The effects are non-linear and most prominent when inventories are big or trading results have been particularly poor. These sensitivities are smaller after specialist firm mergers, consistent with deep pockets easing financing constraints. Finally, compared to low-volatility stocks, the liquidity of high-volatility stocks is more sensitive to inventories and losses.

I'm a Pentax boy all the way. The new K5 seems like it's the bomb, up there with Cannon 5Ds and such which makes me pretty happy, because my K20D is pretty slow and has apparently decreased in value to the point where it's not even really worth selling any more
Daaaaaamn. I'll get a K5 and hold onto the K20D, could be handy, and make me look heaps more pro too.

Clair's family is killed and she must find the killer.

After getting outside the door, Clair ran as hard as she could, automatically assuming that the guards would be sent after her. She ran for several minutes, tripping several times, yet ignoring any and all cuts and bruises she received. Some time afterwords, Clair began to wind down and soon collapsed, her mind giving way to unconsciousness.
When Clair woke, she wondered where she was, for she was not where she had collapsed. Clair lay in a bed against a circular wall. A table stood near the end of the bed, along with two chairs, and a firepit was positioned in the center of the room. A basin stood on the table, and across from the bed was a staircase leading downwards. Clair sat up and winced at the pain from her wounds, which had been cleaned and bandaged. Footsteps began making their way up the stairs. Clair jumped up from the bed and cast about for her sais, which lay on the table, and snatched them out of their sheaths and took a defensive stance.
The man who appeared on the staircase was unlike any that Clair had ever seen before. He had black hair, which was clipped up, and black streaks along the edges of his eyes. Most unusual, however, were his white dog ears and the black claws on his hands. He grinned when he saw Clair.
"Ah, good. You're awake. Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
"Who are you?" Clair growled at him, not dropping her stance.
"Rainon's the name…and I really don't think that's the best way to greet your rescuer," he said as his ice blue eyes flicked to her sais and then back to her. Clair sighed and dropped her stance and replaced her sais in their sheaths, then placed them on her back.
"Sorry. I've just had a rough couple of days." Rainon eyed her injuries.
"I can see that. Anything I can help with?" Clair looked up at him nervously.
"I'd rather not discuss it with someone I just met." Rainon smiled.
"I understand. Speaking of having just met, what's your name?"
"Clair." She held out a hand to him and he shook it gently but firmly.
"It's nice to meet you. Now, how about some breakfast?" One of Rainon's ears began to twitch and he gave a low growl and reached up to scratch it, accidently opening a cut as he did so. He whimpered slightly.
"You'd think that having claws all my life I'd learn how to use the damn things," he said. Clair giggled slightly. Rainon turned and led her down the stairs.
"You'll have to excuse the mess," he said as he crossed the room and opened a cabinet. He began sifting through several bottles and flasks then finally settled on one. Clair sat on a chair at the table that sat in the center of the room. "I don't usually get friendly company," he said as he opened the bottle and put a small amount of white salve on his finger, then rubbed it over the cut on his ear.
"Friendly company?"
"Many people in several of the villages around here are afraid of me," he said as he washed his hands and began cooking. "They all think that since I'm half wolf that I will act like a full wolf. You know, kidnapping and eating children, stealing livestock, etcetera. Eggs okay?" he asked looking back at her. Clair nodded.
"So why don't you?" she asked.
"Why don't I what?"
"Act like they say you do."
"Oh that. Because I'm not a full wolf demon. I can't act like them. Not many half-breeds do."
"What's the difference?" Clair asked, confused.
"Well, a full wolf demon is like an actual wolf. They hunt, they steal, they love the smell of blood, just like a wolf does. Half wolves are more like humans. We know what's ours and what's not. Here you are," he said, placing a plate of eggs on the table in front of her.
"Thank you," Clair said and began eating hungrily. Rainon smiled at her and walked outside, and Clair heard the chopping of wood soon after. Upon finishing the eggs, she walked outside to see Rainon, who was still chopping wood. His ears twitched as she stepped outside.
"Feeling better?" he asked, keeping his back to her.
"Yes, thank you. I'm sorry to eat and run but…I should probably leave soon."
"Already?" he asked, turning to face her somewhat sadly. "You just got up."
"I'm sorry. But my being here puts you in danger, and I would not wish that on someone I just met."
"I doubt you could be in as much danger as I've ever been in." Clair sighed.
"I've got the king's guard on my tail," she said.
"And are they trying to kill you?"
"Uh…I don't really know what they're gonna do to me."
"I've had to move so many times because people think I'm an abomination that needs to be destroyed," he said, as though reliving painful memories.
"Oh…I'm sorry…" Clair said, unsure of what she should say.
"Well…" Rainon sighed dejectedly. "Neither of us can help what I am or how people treat me."
"I…I could but…no…" she said thoughtfully.
"What?" he asked curiously.
"No. Don't worry about it, 'cause it's not going to happen. I'm sorry." Rainon shrugged.
"Me too." He turned and began chopping wood again. Clair watched him for a minute, then said, "Well, I'd better get going now." Rainon turned and nodded at her.
"I hope we meet again, Clair." Clair smiled.
"Me too." She turned and began walking away. Rainon stopped chopping wood to watch her leave, then his ears twitched and her frowned as a suspicious noise reached his ears, and his eyes widened in fear as he recognized the sound. Seconds later, Clair was tackled from behind.
