Ageism in the Workplace
Patricia Brownell
Older workers make important contributions to the workplace, its productivity, and its culture. Work remains important for older adults for financial security, to give meaning to later life, to maintain social networks, and to promote lifelong learning. However, ageist beliefs about the capacity of older adults to remain productive and contributing workers in the workforce can create barriers for older workers. Understanding how older workers experience ageist behavior in the workplace can help employers, policy makers, and social workers learn more about how to address this social problem. Organizations can become more age friendly through enabling workplace programs, supportive management, and proactive human resource managers. Social workers serving older adults in employee assistance programs and in private practice can help them to challenge ageism in the workplace. Finally, legislation such as the Age Discrimination in Employment Act protects the rights of older workers; however, more legislation is needed to address bullying and harassment of older adults in the workplace.
Aging: Public Policy
Jeanette C. Takamura
Public policy advances in the field of aging in the United States have lagged compared to the growth of the older adult population. Policy adjustments have been driven by ideological perspectives and have been largely incremental. In recent years, conservative policy makers have sought through various legislative vehicles to eliminate or curb entitlement programs, proposing private sector solutions and touting the importance of an "ownership society" in which individual citizens assume personal responsibility for their economic and health security. The election of a Democratic majority in the U.S. House and the slim margin of votes held by Democrats in the U.S. Senate may mean a shift in aging policy directions that strengthens Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, if the newly elected members are able to maintain their seats over time. The results of the 2008 presidential election will also determine how the social, economic, and other policy concerns will be addressed as the baby boomers join the ranks of older Americans.
Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing People
Martha A. Sheridan and Barbara J. White
Effective social work practice with deaf and hard-of-hearing people requires a unique, and diverse, collection of knowledge, values, skills, and ethical considerations. Salient issues among this population are language, communication, and educational choices, interpreting, assistive devices, cochlear implants, genetics, culture, and access to community resources. Competencies at micro, mezzo, and macro levels with a deaf or hard-of-hearing population include knowledge of the psychosocial and developmental aspects of hearing loss, fluency in the national sign language, and an understanding of deaf cultural values and norms. In the United States, the use of American Sign Language (ASL) is the single most distinguishing factor that identifies deaf people as a linguistic minority group. This entry presents an overview of the practice competencies and intervention approaches that should be considered in working with deaf and hard-of-hearing people, their families, communities, and organizations. It introduces the knowledge base, diversity in community and cultural orientations, social constructions, and international perspectives, current research and best practices, interdisciplinary connections, trends, challenges, and implications for effective social work practice with this population. An integrative strengths-based transactional paradigm is suggested.
Steven P. Segal and Leah A. Jacobs
The deinstitutionalization policy sought to prevent unnecessary admission and retention in institutions for six populations: elderly people, children, people with mental illness or developmental disabilities, criminal offenders, and, more recently, the homeless. It also sought to develop community alternatives for housing, treating, and habilitating or rehabilitating these groups. U.S. institutional populations, however, have increased since the policy's inception by 212%. As implemented, deinstitutionalization initiated a process that involved a societal shift in the type of institutions and institutional alternatives used to house these groups, often referred to as transinstitutionalization. This entry considers how this shift has affected the care and control of such individuals from political, economic, legal, and social perspectives, as well as suggestions for a truer implementation of deinstitutionalization.
Military Social Work
Jesse J. Harris, Col. USA Ret. and Kyle L. Pehrson, Col. USA Ret.
The history of military social work in the United States is rooted in the civilian professional social work community and is a microcosm of that sector. Military social work has a rich history of providing services to military men and women and their families during periods of peace, conflict, and national crises. They have been involved in humanitarian operations and have participated in multinational peace-keeping operations. Social work in the Army, Navy, and Air Force is tailored to the mission of their particular service. However, joint operations between the services are becoming more frequent. Military social workers adhere to the NASW code of ethics while providing service to an institution with its own unique culture, standards, and values.
Vocational Services
Lauren B. Gates
Vocational rehabilitation (VR) services, provided through a jointly funded state–federal rehabilitation system and available in each state, help people with disabilities prepare for, secure, and sustain employment. Since 1920, VR Programs have helped 10 million individuals with disabilities reach employment. Anyone with a mental or physical disability is eligible for VR services. While a range of services is provided, the services most consistent with VR goals are those, such as supported employment, that promote full integration into community life. Social workers are essential to community-based VR services; however, a challenge for the profession is to assume new roles to meet best practice vocational standards.

Alternatives Identification and Assessment Training for the Substitution of Hazardous ChemicalsActivity by raluca aurora stepa | added on Nov 28, 2011 | Germany
Sponsor(s): Life+ Programme of the European Union, BAuA-Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health of Germany,United Nations Environment Programe-Mediterranean Action Plan, The Federal Ministry oof Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management, Au
The workshop will help answer very actual questions: Are there safer chemicals available? How and where do I find them? Which of them are suited for my company? How do I evaluate them? What are the steps of the substitution process?
One of the greatest challenges of chemistry today is to use its knowledge and creativity to meet the world needs for sustainable development.
A training workshops on identification and assessment of safer chemicals that are available as alternatives to hazardous substances will be organized in Barcelona, Spain, at the premises of the Catalonian Agency for Wastes. The workshop will be held on 13 December 2011 and will gather participants from the Mediterranean region.
An interactive form of teaching will help participants gain knowledge of free sources of information, databases and tools that can help them in the substitution process as well as in the general management of chemicals.
The training will be organized as a result of the collaboration between the SUBSPORT project consortium and the UNEP Regional Activity Centre for Cleaner Production (CP/RAC).
The SUBSPORT consortium will participate in this event as part of the Life LIFE08 ENV/D/000027 project. The consortium consists of Kooperationsstelle Hamburg IFE- Germany, ISTAS- Spain, ChemSec- Sweden and Grontmij- Denmark , all partners experienced in chemical management and training.
The CP/RAC is one of the six Regional Activity Centres within the Mediterranean Action Plan. CP/RAC participation in the training will be part of the activity 5.1.13 "Promotion and diffusion of Alternative Products and Processes to reduce the use of POPs and other chemicals'' of its Programme of Work. The main goal of the CP/RAC is the promotion and dissemination of prevention and the reduction of pollution at source in the industrial, agriculture and tourism sectors.
The collaboration between the two teams in organizing the workshop is meant to mark the anniversary year of chemistry and its capacity to generate progress while protecting life and environment.

Dental Protection Sliding Doors Seminar Series - "Dirty stories"
1.5 hours CPD
Time: 11.00am – 12.30pm
Venue: Pan Pacific Perth
Dental Protection will be running their Sliding Doors seminar, Dirty Stories, on Thursday 8 March as part of the ASP pre-conference program. This event is free to all Dental Protection members and can be booked directly through their website. Non-members are welcome to attend for a fee.
2015 saw infection control in dentistry catapulted into mainstream culture due to widely publicised infection control breaches in NSW. Dirty Stories will look at the risks to the practitioner of an infection control breach, and answer the oft asked questions; does it really matter is there is a breach? and, are all breaches equally as bad?
The Dental Protection "Sliding Doors" Seminar Series began in February 2015 in Brisbane and has been presented in major cities as well as regional areas of Australia over the past few years. Dates have also been released for Tasmania and Sydney in 2018.
The aim is to provide practitioners with the skills to handle difficult situations and to put them in control, based on a better understanding of the complexities involved.
The five different scenarios covered over the course of the Sliding Doors seminar series are:
1. Why didn't you say so? Consent
2. Which side are we on? Wrong tooth, wrong site
3. Gob smacked. Allegation of rough handling or abuse
4. Stretching the boundary. Working beyond the scope of practice
5. Dirty stories. Infection control breach
The series provides a fresh take on the key factors surrounding consent, communication and record keeping. The importance of each of these factors in the outcome of an incident, claim or allegation will be highlighted.
* Dental Protection members attend free as a benefit of membership
* Non-members to pay $220 at the event (online payment not available)
If you are not already a Dental Protection member, email email@example.com to confirm your interest in receiving further information and booking details.
Please note, while an attendance fee of $220 per person applies to registered practitioner non-members, this can be offset against your membership if taken before 30 June in the relevant year of renewal.

Homeland Security's ICE Group Cuts Off Dwolla Bitcoin Transfers
from the no-explanation dept
Update: The DHS has released a copy of the warrant, which claims probable cause to believe that Mt. Gox is engaging in money transmitting without a license.We've discussed in the past how the government seems very skeptical of Bitcoin, and now it may be doing something about it. As a whole bunch of you have sent in, ICE (Immigrations and Customs Enforcement), a division of Homeland Security -- best known around here for its cowboy attitude towards censoring websites with no basis -- has cut off Dwolla transfers to Mt. Gox, the biggest Bitcoin exchange, preventing Dwolla from processing any Bitcoin transfers. According to Declan McCullagh at News.com:
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security confirmed it has initiated legal action that prompted the Dwolla payment service to stop processing bitcoin transactions.Chris Coyne, from Ok Cupid, posted a screenshot of an email from Dwolla claiming that ICE had "seized" the account of Mt. Gox:
Nicole Navas, a spokesperson for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, confirmed the legal action to CNET this afternoon.
MtGox has read on the Internet that the United States Department of Homeland Security had a court order and/or warrant issued from the United States District Court in Maryland which it served upon the Dwolla mobile payment service with respect to accounts used for trading with MtGox. We take this information seriously. However, as of this time we have not been provided with a copy of the court order and/or warrant, and do not know its scope and/or the reasons for its issuance. MtGox is investigating and will provide further reports when additional information becomes known.I would imagine there will be a lot more to this story, but for the moment details are scarce.

In order to attract the man of your dreams, Custom Made To Measure Suits in Westcliff it helps to dress in a way that honors your beautiful body. When I use the word "honor," I don't mean you should dress like a nun or hide yourself in an ankle-length skirt and a turtleneck.
But you should wear only clothes that make the best of your unique
shape. Too many fleshy women (and there are lots of men who prefer robust
females over skimpier lasses) are currently wandering the planet in
low-rise jeans and tank tops, Custom Fit Suits which results in a phenomenon known as
"muffin top." In other words, they're walking around with a wedge of flab
over their waistbands. Not a good look.
Before you hop on whatever trend they're pushing in InStyle magazine,
ask yourself if the look works for you and your beautiful body. I once
read an interview with the actress Sela Ward, Custom Tailored Pants in which she said she
chooses clothes to show off her amazing flat stomach but avoids items that expose her flabby thighs. You see, nobody's perfect!
"Wuthering Heights," I said.
"Really?" he asked. "I just finished Jane Eyre."
And so began a little romance.
The Benefits of Men's Wool Suits
Still bewildered, I told my male friend B. this story years later. I
didn't understand why this Adonis chose Glow-in-the-Dark Terry over the
dark lovelies in bikinis.
"I understand completely," B. responded. "The beach was crawling with
girls in bikinis, and you presented something else. A little mystery."
"In a pair of Levis?"
"Yeah," he said. "The guy probably thought, this girl is different. I
want to talk to her."
Does this mean you should throw away your bikini? Heck, no, especially
if you look good in it. But the point is, be true to yourself. Dress to
make the very best of your unique and beautiful body.
You'll attract men who are looking for someone special for a change.
Custom Made To Measure Suits in Westcliff ?
Men's wear in the 1920s is not very different from men's business attire today. A good suit, tie, hat, and shoes were all a man needed to dress in the day. Evening events were much more formal will full tuxedos even for a dinner party with friends.
To dress like a man from the 1920's you will need the following:
Suit- Suit jackets were usually single breasted, with minimal buttons, and had an overall loose appearance. Pants were held high on the waist with pleats at the top and cuffs at the bottom. In cool seasons suits were dark grey, blue or brown wile summer colors were white, ivory, pastels and occasionally pink (Gatsby wore a pink suit in novel The Great Gatsby.)
Hat- Men do not wear hats today as they did in the 1920s. Winter hats included the bowler, flat cap (also known as a cab driver hat), panama (felt), or its cousin the Fedora. Summer hats were made of straw, such as the straw Boater (aka Skimmer) or the Optimo Panama hat. Top hats were still used for formal wear.
Shoes- The final defining element of a man's dress was his shoes. Two toned spectator dress shoes were the most appropriate. Fringed tongues and wingtips on Oxfords and Brogues were seen frequently.
Men's Dress Shirts - How to Wear a Black Dress Shirt
Looking good is all about proper coordination. There was a time when people had the idea of suits as the only form of formal dresses available for men, however times have changed, and now it's mainly the occasion itself which determines what to wear. There are many key micro attributes which play a part in how men are going to achieve a good look at any event - for example accessories, color combination and designs, which are all vital components that can have a major impact on the overall outlook.
It is generally a good idea to let the occasion itself be a guide on the type of formal dresses men should pursue wearing. It is very important that the attire goes along with the other members of the particular event or environment, the key idea being able to blend in rather than look alien. Usually formal business looks are achieved by wearing a very high quality and well-tailored suit usually in dark colors like black, navy blue or grey. The shirt itself should generally be white or azure, the main idea is to put forth a noticeable contrast. It is acceptable that cuff links are worn as an accessory, since they are normally reserved to go with formal dresses worn in business and trading environments. Cuff links can also be worn at wedding events, in which case the suit can be replaced with an open breasted tuxedo and a neck-tie.
In any case, the attire should be selected according to the particular event. However, this article should not be taken as a guide, and should not drive impromptu purchases. Paying close attention to any pre-specified recommendations of the respective event and some level of customization reflecting individual personality should be preferred upon, when the formal dresses of a particular event is selected.

Longtime Cub Scout area in Bozrah could be closed, sold
Bozrah - Camp Tadma, used by many New London County scouting troops and one of the oldest Cub Scout camps in the country, may be sold.
If it is closed, Camp Webster in Ashford would be the closest in-state camp for scouts in the Mohegan district, which contains most of New London County. Camp Tadma Director Ken Warner said that, for some troops, it may be easier to cross the border and use Rhode Island campsites than to travel to Camp Webster.
The Connecticut Rivers Council, a state-level council for Boy Scouts of America, is considering closing and selling the camp because of decreased attendance. The council's website explains that it has limited resources and may use the money from the sale of Camp Tadma to support Cub Scout camping elsewhere.
Attendance at the three other Cub Scout camps under the council's jurisdiction has increased, according to the council's website.
The council is holding an executive board session Tuesday at 7 p.m. at Stanley Black & Decker Learning Center in New Britain to consider the future of Camp Tadma. Board members will listen to a presentation in favor of closure and one in favor of keeping the camp open.
The council will allow 30 minutes for adult scouting leaders to comment on the issue and will read additional comments sent to email@example.com. A final decision will be made at the regular meeting of the executive board on Sept. 24.
Warner called the camp a "national treasure" and said closing it would be a mistake.
Warner, who was hired in February, said he turned the camp around in 2013 after a "disastrous" 2012 season and believes he can make it profitable if given two or three more years.
The Connecticut Rivers Council controls off-season spending for the camps, said Warner, and consistently loses money on the off-season camp rentals. That makes it difficult for camp directors to break even, he said.
"Program-wise, (this was) probably the best year in 10 years," said Warner, who said he has been working on marketing and promotion initiatives with his staff. He said reviews of the camp from scouts and scout leaders went from 98 percent negative in 2012 to 98 percent positive in 2013.
Camp Tadma was also considered for closure in 2009, at which point the Connecticut Rivers Council leadership said they had spent almost $1 million on the site over the past five years. They said they would close the camp if attendance didn't increase in 2010.
That attempt to close the camp was unsuccessful because of the community response, said Corey Holmes, a cubmaster in Middletown and former staff member at Tadma.
Warner believes that the council is having financial issues and wants to "fill the balance sheet very, very quickly." He said donations to Boy Scouts of America are down after the publicity surround the organization's decision to admit gay Scouts but continue to ban gay troop leaders, and thinks the Connecticut Rivers is rushing to sell Camp Tadma before further improvements are made, making it more difficult to argue in favor of closure.
Part of the reason he argues so vehemently for keeping Camp Tadma open, explained Warner, is that Cub Scouts is the time boys learn to enjoy camping.
"If the kids do not have a place to come to camp as Tigers, Wolves, Bears and Webelos, the chances are good that they will not cross over to Boy Scouts," said Warner.
The Connecticut Rivers Council's website calls the decision that will be made next week "emotional and difficult" and says the decision must be made with interests of future Cub Scout campers in mind.
Council leadership could not be reached for comment.
The camp has been in operation since 1978 and has been nominated for inclusion in the National Historic Register, said Holmes, who camped at the Bozrah site when he was a Cub Scout in the 1980s. The register's board won't meet to consider the nomination, however, until after Camp Tadma's fate is determined.
Camp Tadma is only one of five original Cub Scouts camps, said Warner, and "once it's sold, it's gone."

I like that they rank the saints in the top 10, but I can't see how the packers and dolphins are ranked higher. Packers only made the playoffs cuz they're in a weak division. Dolphins didn't make the playoffs either, and I think their offense is overrated even with Ricky Williams. I hope the saints prove me right and be #1 come playoffs

My opinion ... a 3rd grader could have come up with that list. There did not look to be any thought put into the list other than going off last years finish.
I don\'t think the Bucs will win their playoff game this year and raiders will not be in contention. Age will catch up to them this year. I really don\'t know who will be the big winner this year because 15 teams looks fairly even. I do think Miami and Buffalo will be much improved this year and finish higher than this guy projected.
In the NFC south the title is up for grabs. Tampa does not have talent on anyone. If they play error free ball they will win but it will take ERROR FREE ball. I look for minnesota to be a surprise team this year.
I will not go so far as to predict the superbowl teams but I do think the NFC south and AFC East will be represented.

how can u say no thought went into it and that the list was made by going off last years finish? looking at it, 3 of the top 10 teams didnt make the playoffs.... the giants who did are at #18, the 49ers who did are at #14, the jets who did at #11, the colts who did at #13... we are at #10 despite missing the playoffs and losing the last 3 games.. the pats who missed the playoffs are at #6 and the dolphins who missed are at #8
come on tex... u should take a longer look at things before u start yapping away

Minnesota still has defensive issues, but they should do better than last year. What did they win, five games?
Tex is right about the afc east.
Miami should come out on top, assuming Feidler stays healthy. He should understand Norv Turners offense a little more this year. I don\'t think that he\'s worth the contract that the Dolphins signed him for. If they pick up Griese, they should run with him.
Buffalo had a monster off-season. They beefed up their defense but wasted the first round of their draft. How silly was that? Travis Henry had a terrific year ,fumbled a bit, but a great year none the less. They have Olandis Gary- a back that just a couple of years ago had over 1,000 yards rushing. And now a first rounder that won\'t even start this year because he snapped three major ligaments in his knee and may be a problem throughout his career.
The Patties also improved their defense. In retrospect to the draft, I\'m thrilled that we got Sullivan just because the Patriots wanted him too. Billechick is just as smug as Billick so I like when they don\'t get their way. (Sorry patman)
I didn\'t think that the Jets were very impressive at the beginning of last year so I\'m leary to speculate, but I doubt that they\'ve done enough to make the play-offs this year. Herman Edwards is a motivator though. He knows how to get his players to perform at their highest level. Something I wish that Haslett could do better at.
Tex is also right about the nfc south. All those teams have made good moves to improve an already solid division.
Man, I\'m pumped for this season. The Saints look good, fellas. I think we all agree that they may be one super free agent away from a really good defense. I hope that there will be one come June 1.

One super defensive player and a coordinator that can adjust to offenses would be the right step.

You\'re right there lummox. Maybe the super defensive \"player\" could be a defensive coordinator.

It\'s unfair to criticize pre-season, pre-training camp power polls. WHo the hell knows who will be good yet? At least a team or two will have soem devastating injury in the summer and slip and one or two others will emerge. Picking the Miami-NE-BUff-NY division is impossible, Minus the Jets (who still got Robertson- according to Kiper may have had highest grade of ANY player), all the teams in that division improved.
I\'m not so sure the Raiders and Bucs will fade. I said Oakland would last year- oops. Now they bring back the same team plus two fist round players. Don\'t forget Phil Buchanon (hurt for second half of the year) was becoming Deon-esque prior to his injury and Napoleon Harris (other 02 1st rounder) and DOug Jolley (02 2nd rounder) came on big time at the end of last season. As for the Bucs, they won w/o their 2nd best defensive player (next to brooks)- LSU\'s own Booger mCFarland - for a god part of last season (I think he was still out when they won the SUper Bowl as well). Now, they get him back healthy, a contract year Sapp, FA DeWayne Rudd, a better back up QB. If Pittman somehow gets comfortable in this system and does what Gruden thought he would last year this team is as good as any.
As for the Saints, I DO NOT like the 10 spot. I want them to be 22-32. Expect nothing and you will be surprised. Every year they look good to me they screw up and every year they look bad they overachieve and surprise me. Plus. this team has no proven lb, a rookie and a fattie in the middle and dale carter as our marquee corner. I think the Saints have a good shot at the playoffs and I love their moves this ofseason but 10 seems a little high.

Marseille interested in Barton deal
Marseille are interested in signing controversial QPR midfielder Joey Barton, Press Association Sport understands.
The 29-year-old's future with the west Londoners has been the subject of much debate this summer after he was stripped of the captaincy and given a 12-match FA ban for his red card and subsequent conduct on the final day of last season at Manchester City.
Barton spent pre-season training with Fleetwood, but would not be able to join npower League Two newboys on loan as it is understood the Football League would refuse to register him while his ban remains.
However, the fact he was not given a squad number by QPR has done little to suggest he has a future with the club and Press Association Sport has since learned Marseille are interested in the former Rs skipper.
The Ligue 1 club have yet to table an offer, though, and are thought to be the only club to have expressed an interest in the former Newcastle man.
Barton, perhaps teasingly, wished his Twitter followers "Bonne nuit" - French for "good night" - on the social media network on Thursday evening.
Earlier, upon finding out his old number 17 shirt was given to summer signing Ryan Nelsen, he posted: "Heard my shirt numbers gone to someone else. News to me..."
"Just come off the golf course so only just heard. A call would of [sic] been nice. Ah, well life goes on..."

The Kings and Ducks announced their respective TV schedules on Thursday, with each planning to make every regular-season game available on TV during the 2013-14 season. The teams' Jan. 25 outdoor game at Dodger Stadium, part of the NHL's Stadium Series of outdoor games, is scheduled to air on NBC Sports Network.
The Kings are scheduled to air two preseason games and 73 regular-season games on Fox Sports West/Prime Ticket, starting Oct. 4. Their Oct. 3 season opener will be aired on NBCSN. Games not scheduled to air on FS West or Prime Ticket will be shown on NBCSN.
Here's a link with the Kings' schedule.
The Ducks plan to air 69 games on Prime Ticket or FS West, eight on KDOC and five on NBCSN. They will have a "Ducks Live" show before and after home and road games.
Here's a link to the Ducks' schedule.
The TV broadcast teams for both clubs will stay the same. Bob Miller will return for his 41st season of play by play for the Kings—as he told The Times recently—and Jim Fox will begin his 24th season. For the Ducks, Brian Hayward and John Ahlers will be back for their 12th season together, also Hayward's 21st season as an analyst.
The only change of note is that Dan Moriarty won't be involved in Kings' telecasts. Former King (and Duck) Sean O'Donnell, recently hired as the Kings' director of fan development and alumni relations, will have an additional role on the "Kings Live" pre- and post-game shows. Patrick O'Neal and Daryl Evans will again host the "Kings Live" shows.

Xerox is scrambling to update a security patch following the disclosure of a major security flaw in its WorkCenter multifunction printers.
By taking advantage of a configuration error in the printers' Web interface, security researcher Brendan O'Connor was able to run unauthorised software on the printers, compromise network traffic, and access sensitive information being printed on the machines.
He shared details of how to compromise the printers during a presentation at the Black Hat USA conference in Las Vegas Thursday.
"Think of all the sensitive data that's going through these," he said. "Everybody prints and there's an inherent trust in these types of devices."
O'Connor said he was not trying to "pick on Xerox," but rather using his hack as a case study to draw attention to the security threat posed by increasingly powerful embedded devices.
"I don't think they're getting the level of scrutiny that they require," said O'Connor, who identified himself only as a security engineer with a U.S. financial services company.
"This is a Linux server wrapped in a copier box. These things are all over the enterprise," he said.
Xerox issued a patch for the vulnerability in February. It affects WorkCenter and WorkCenter Pro series 200 devices sold between October 2005 and June of this year, said Armon Rahgozar, a manager with Xerox's Solutions and Partnership Technology Office.
However, that Xerox patch does not fully address the vulnerabilities, O'Connor said. "My company is still vulnerable to these things," he said.
Rahgozar said that Xerox was working to address the situation and would issue an updated patch.
Customers can either download the patch from the Xerox Web site or wait for service technicians to apply the patches at their next scheduled servicing.
Xerox is also developing an automatic update system for its products, similar to Microsoft, Rahgozar said. "We probably want to follow the model that Microsoft has learned the hard way," he said. "You provide the push mechanism, but it's controlled by administrators at the site."
When Rahgozar showed up for O'Connor's Black Hat talk, the researcher said that he was worried that Xerox might be considering legal action against him in the same way that Cisco Systems Inc. sued security researcher Michael Lynn at last year's conference. "When the guy said, 'I'm from Xerox,' I thought Mike Lynn," O'Connor said in an interview after his presentation.
Those concerns were unfounded however. After the talk, Rahgozar thanked the researcher, saying he was doing the industry a service.
"So how much do you hate me?" O'Connor asked Rahgozar.
"Not at all," the Xerox manager said.

Kay Widdows Receives Top Teaching Awardby Jim Amidon • April 26, 2013 Share:
Kealoha "Kay" Widdows, a 26-year teaching veteran at Wabash College, received the McLain-McTurnan-Arnold Excellence in Teaching Award at the College's annual honors convocation, Awards Chapel.
Widdows holds the John H. Schroeder Interdisciplinary Chair in Economics at the liberal arts college in Crawfordsville.
"Her given name, Kealoha, translates, 'A great friend who will always be by your side,'" said Dean of the College Gary A. Phillips in presenting the prestigious award. "Kay is a great friend who is always by the side of students and faculty, a sister liberal arts traveler whose imagination opens doors here and worlds away, a teacher who exemplifies for students, faculty, staff, presidents, and trustees the best liberal arts teaching this small College has to offer."
The Excellence in Teaching Award honors the memories of Reid H. McLain '27, Clair McTurnan '10, and Kent Arnold '29, and is given to a member of the faculty who has distinguished him or herself by innovative and engaging teaching.
"This, to me, is Wabash's highest honor, and I feel especially privileged to be recognized by my colleagues, all of whom are great teachers, advisors, and hardworking community members," Widdows said. "All of us at Wabash who 'profess' owe a huge part of any success to the quality of our students — the raw material that walks in the door, accords us respect and attention, makes decisions, works hard, and walks out four years later as men who will make a difference in the world. It's the learners who do the work; the teachers are merely facilitators, advisors, and cheerleaders."
Widdows joined the Wabash faculty in 1987 after completing her bachelor's degree at Reed College, her master's degree at the University of Chicago, and her Ph.D. at Purdue University. Prior to her arrival at Wabash, she was an economist for the Budget and Planning Office for the Missouri State Government.
In addition to teaching more than three-dozen distinct courses in her tenure, Dr. Widdows has an impressive administrative record, as well. She has served as Chair of the Economics Department, Chair of the Division of Social Sciences, and Acting Dean of the College. She has chaired the Faculty Development Committee, Off-Campus Studies Committee, and the Freshman Tutorial Committee, and has served on two Presidential Search Committees.
In addition to her excellent teaching at Wabash, she has taught students around the world. Dr. Widdows has served as a visiting professor at a university in Malaysia, was the resident director of the Great Lakes Colleges Association's Japanese Study Program at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan, was a visiting scholar at the National Chengchi University in Taipei, Taiwan, and was a visiting instructor for the University of Virginia's Semester at Sea program.
She helped establish Wabash's Asian Studies Program through a Mellon Foundation grant, and has been a major contributor to Wabash's partnership with the Indiana University Kelley School of Business for its dual degree program in accounting.
"No faculty person is a better ambassador for Wabash or what we aspire to do with students here," said Dean Phillips. "No faculty person better exemplifies the type of peripatetic teaching that changes the lives of students and faculty."
At Wabash, Dr. Widdows regularly teaches Introduction to Economics, Intermediate Microeconomics, Industrial Organization, and International Economics. She is also interested in the economics of the arts and recently received a GLCA New Directions Grant for her study of cost trends in artisan violin making.
Her belief that her students need to see the world in order to be effective leaders in it is seen in the many Immersion Learning Courses she has taught. She has led students to three continents, including to Ecuador to study the political economy of oil production and to Europe to learn about policy-making in the European Union.
"I continue to believe that travel is a great teacher, and that if managed correctly, it can open doors to the imagination in ways that are simply not possible here," Widdows said. "The opportunity for economists and students of economics to go around the world … can be a life-changing experience."
Outside of her academic interest, Dr. Widdows is an accomplished pianist and enjoys playing chamber music with students.

Big thumbs down to the Kong Stuff-A-Ball.
I had an extra large one that I gave to Layla last night because she had adjusted so well to the move and thought it would be nice for her to have a little treat and new toy. I put half of a biscuit in the end (we dont do treats, so this was extra special for her) and she ran off like a fat kid in a candy store.
She chewed on the end of the treat and apparently the rest of the bone fell into the hole in the middle of the ball. Well, after about 5 minutes of trying to get it out, Layla had just about enough of that. Apparently, it's much easier just to rip the top half of the entire toy off and get the treat out that way. We now have a topless stuff-a-ball that can no longer be stuffed.
It lasted no longer than 10 minutes, MAX, and is not durable at all. And yes, she did get the treat out.
Helps if I put my posts in the right thread...okay two toys I received for Scooter that *crosses everything* seem to be holding up.

1. Don't hide on the inside
Never undertake a lorry on the left hand side, especially if you are at a junction.
Don't do this even if there is a cycle lane and an advanced stop line tempting you to sneak through to the front of a queue of traffic. Remember, you are in the driver's blind spot and if the vehicle turns, you will have no escape. Far better to wait a few seconds behind the HGV than risk being crushed.
If you must overtake, do it on the right and allow plenty of room for unexpected movements. Also beware of oncoming traffic and be prepared to move back in if something is coming the other way.
2. The eyes have it
Making eye contact with other road users, particularly at junctions, side roads and on roundabouts, may tell you if the driver has seen you or not. Develop 360 degree vision and scan the road surface continuously for defects such as potholes.
3. Look over your shoulder
Regularly look behind to see what is happening all around. Checking behind when moving into or away from the kerb; before you signal to manoeuvre; and at regular intervals whilst riding along enables you to create a snapshot in your head of road conditions at any particular moment; it also allows you to signal to other road users that you are part of the flow of traffic, not separate from it.
4.Look ahead
Look well ahead for obstructions in the road, such as drains, potholes and parked vehicles so that you do not have to swerve suddenly to avoid them. Planning ahead helps you to be prepared for junctions, roundabouts and traffic lights.
5. Get out of the gutter!
Your road position should not be less than 1 metre from the kerb and should be even further out if it is not safe for a vehicle to pass. If someone does pass you inconsiderately, you have more room to get out of harm's way.
Keeping away from the gutter will also enable drivers to see you and help you miss the drain covers and debris on the side of the road, too. Take extra care near road humps and other traffic-calming features that may direct you back into the kerb where drivers will attempt to squeeze past.
6. Don't be floored by car doors
Leave plenty of room when passing parked vehicles and watch out for doors being opened into your path.
Check behind first and then move out. If it is too narrow to move out, scan the vehicles to see if anybody is about to fling open a car door or pull out into your path.
7. Make your intentions clear
Check behind, signal and manoeuvre well in advance, and only when it is safe to do so. If it's safer, keep your hands on the handlebar and brake levers rather than signalling. Keep your position in your lane so vehicles cannot undertake closely on your left.
8. Cover your brakes
Keep your hands on your brake levers, so that you are ready to use them. Always use both brakes at the same time and apply pressure evenly. Take extra care when it is wet or icy, or there are damp leaves on the ground.
9. Lighten up
By law, when it's dark or there is bad visibility, you must have lights on the front and rear of your bike. Always carry spare small lights in case your main lights are not working.
10. Cycle Training
From beginner to experienced cyclist, you can benefit from professional cycle training. Find out more about cycling safely in today's road conditions by contacting your local instructor.

I recently built the sand clock. I guess I was initially taken by the cool nature of it but now that I have it built I find it a bit annoying having to listen to the vibration of the erase cycle every minute (or more).You certainly cannot place it anywhere "typical" of having a clock - like in the living room while watching TV or something. Anyway, it is what it is I guess. Now that I have it, I don't use it for this reason.
But on that topic can anyone enlighten me as to what the program is doing to decide when to plot the time. I would have expected it to watch for a change in the minute data and initiate a new plot. But on occasion my clock plots the time several times per minute. Sometimes twice in a row and it's often the same time plotted. I suspect there is something wrong with the firmware.
This issue makes the clock even more of an annoyance.
Any insight would be helpful.
If anyone comes up with a retrofit to perhaps run a fine brush across the sand or something I would welcome hearing about it.

Innuuendo was a science fiction fanzine by Terry Carr and Dave Rike.
Innuendo was published in the mid 1950s in the U.S.A till 1960, when the fanzine ceased publication. After Terry Carr's death, issue 12, which he had begun when still alive, was published in 1990 by Jerry Kaufman.
Innuendo features writing by Greg Benford, Ron Bennett (Ploy), Carl Brandon, Carol Carr, Sidney Coleman, Calvin Demmon, Bill Donaho (Habakkuk), Dean Grennell (Filler, Grue), Arnie Katz (Vegas Fandom Weekly), Ray Nelson, Elmer Perdue, Tom Perry, Harry Warner, Jr. (Horizons), Ted White, Walt Willis (Hyphen) and Susan Wood (Aspidistra).
Artwork was by Hannes Bok, Grant Canfield, Ronald Clyne, Cynthia Goldstone, Lee Hoffman (Quandry), Joy Kinney, Trina Robbins, Bill Rotsler, Dan Steffan (Boonfark), Steve Stiles, ATom (The ATom Anthology), and Bjo Trimble (Melange).
Innuendo frequently reprinted articles from old fanzines that the editors thought important to fan history; among these articles was writing by Charles Burbee, F. Towner Laney (The Acolyte), Jim Harmon, and others.
The article from Innuendo called "The Mind of Chow", by Charles Burbee, was reprinted in the fanzine yearbook, The Best of Fandom 1958.
Innuendo was the fanzine in which Terry Carr and Peter Graham presented "Carl Brandon, Jr." a fictitious fan of color, in order to address issues of race within the science fiction community.
Later, fans created the Carl Brandon Society.
Terry Carr also co-published Klein Bottle from 1959 till 1960 with Miriam Carr, and went on to publish Lighthouse, from 1958 till 1968, and the one shot Entropy in 1964.

Jeff Gordon: now on to Chicago....
By Mike Mulhern
RICHMOND, Va.
It was indeed Jeff Gordon versus Kyle Busch for that final wild card playoff spot, with a great cameo by Ryan Newman, in the Saturday night-Sunday morning Richmond 400.
And for much of the race -- which was 90 minutes late starting, from its planned 7:30 p.m. ET green, and which didn't get the checkered until 1:23 a.m. -- that spot appeared Busch's easily.
Gordon was running very poorly, 22nd at one point, even though his Rick Hendrick teammates, Jimmie Johnson, Kasey Kahne and Dale Earnhardt Jr., were then running top-five.
But things turned, suddenly almost, during that stretch after a confusing and quickly called round of pit stops -- and no stops -- at lap 278 of the 400-lapper.
Gordon became a contender, and in the closing laps he was nipping at Clint Bowyer's heels for the win, with Bowyer running out of fuel.
Busch floundered from that point, became clearly flustered and angrily, snapping at his crew. And his 16th place finish cost him a place in the playoffs, a crushing blow for a driver that many consider possibly the best pure racer in this sport.
Busch offered a few snappish comments after the race and then disappeared into the night, skipping planned post-race interviews.
Gordon on the other hand was almost stunned at making the playoffs, particularly as poorly as his car handled early on.
"Went from last week to being the most disappointed I've ever been to finish second to the most excited I've ever been to finish second," Gordon said.
"Wow! What a race for us.
"We just flat-out missed the setup at the beginning. Luckily Alan (Gustafson, his crew chief) and the engineers got together and found the tools that we could utilize to make the car better.
"The biggest thing is that rear (sway) bar: we just had to get rid of it. We cut the chain....and our car really started coming to us right then. We finally got some driveoff the corners.
"All the things that have gone wrong for us this year... everything went right for us tonight. We had some guys stay out there on tires on basically that last caution that really cost them good finishing positions. We came in and got tires, and we were able to drive up through there.
"Alan had great timing for that last pit stop. We shortpitted, and it worked -- getting us out ahead of Tony (Stewart) and run Mark (Martin) down at the end.
"It was amazing. I still can't believe we actually did it."
Down the stretch "I didn't know what position we were in. I didn't know what was going on.
"I knew that it looked like some guys were staying out because of how slow they were running.
"Then Alan got pretty animated when he said "You've got to get the 55 (Martin), you have to get the 55," and there was 10 to go.
"I kind of had an idea that that would get us in, but he didn't ever say it."
It was quite a change from the first half of the race.
"I was not very smiling and happy at that rain delay, " Gordon said. "I was pretty ticked off that we got that far behind.
"When you have that kind of start to the race, you don't have a lot of hope you're going to get it turned around.
"Alan never wavered. He was confident. They were looking at the data, from what we had, to our teammates, even Tony.
"I felt like I won the race. When it was over and they told me I was in the chase, that we'd made it, I was ecstatic. I was going nuts.
"Man, I don't see any reason why we can't go out over these next 10 races and be a real threat for the championship."

Dave Rogers, Busch's crew chief, was hard on himself.
"The chase is more than one race, but we certainly were in a position to capitalize and make it. But that call, I blew it.
"I gave one up. But hats off to Jeff and Alan; they hung in there, they fought. They got behind early and could have easily folded, and they didn't. They deserve to be in the chase, and I'm happy for them.
"I just gave up a chance at a championship for this team, for Kyle, for everyone. I feel like I let them all down. That hurts.
"We were both speechless (when meeting Busch afterwards). We looked at each other and nodded and just acknowledged that we'll talk later.
"Both of us are hurting. But we didn't say much. Kyle did a good job of keeping his composure and took it on the chin like a man."
Team owner Joe Gibbs: "I didn't really talk to Kyle much. I was up there with him, just sharing the disappointment. You just feel bad because of all that was put into this.
"It's just a real disappointing night.....the agony and defeat...."
18 vs 24 was great show. Super article,great pics.
I also hold the opinion that Kyle is the best driver in Sprint Cup today. But last night's race showed that he has no initiative. He's capable of racking up points but fails to take things to the expected conclusion when the need is greatest. Consider his prior chase performances. He's never won a chase race, nor a championship. He seems to want everything to fall into his lap and won't strain himself when it doesn't.
Maybe his crew chief missed a call for tires. He should have sucked it up and drove his heart out. But he didn't. As the best driver, I feel that he could have gained three spots if he had really wanted to, even with an ill-handling car.
It wasn't Kyle's best year overall. Maybe with a new teammate next year, and Hamlin's expected good run in the chase, he'll want to get off his butt and make an effort.

For anyone that's ever driven in a crowded downtown locale – and truckers of all stripes no doubt maintain a trove of such tales – one of the biggest things to worry about is the lack of attention pedestrians display when crossing the street.
More time than I can count, I've had to stop short or wait at a green light because someone engrossed in their smart phone or with musical ear buds cranked at full volume blindly walks into the roadway under the assumption that the white painted lines on the asphalt will protect them from harm.
If that doesn't define "crazy," then I don't know what does.
Yet now we've got more than just anecdotal evidence about the breadth of the "distracted pedestrians" problem in this country.
Of the more than 1,000 adults surveyed by Liberty Mutual Insurance for the firm's new Pedestrian Safety Survey, some 60% of pedestrians admit to walking while texting, emailing, talking on the phone, or listening to music despite 70% of those very same folks considering those behaviors to be dangerous.
Such distractions may have been a contributing factor to the 4,280 pedestrian deaths in traffic crashes in 2010, a 4% increase from the previous year, as reported in the latest data by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA).
Indeed, a further 55% of respondents to Liberty Mutual's survey consider texting or emailing while crossing a street to be the most dangerous activity when walking – more so than those who feel running across a street to beat oncoming traffic (40%) or jaywalking (24%) to be the most dangerous, said David Melton, a driving safety expert with Liberty Mutual and managing director of global safety for the firm.
"So much attention has been paid – and rightly so – to the dangers of distracted driving that we have ignored the fact that distracted walking and crossing can be just as risky," he explained. "Few consider distracted crossing of streets and roads to be a major safety risk in this country. Even though from an early age, we all learn how to safely cross the street – look both ways, wait for the walk sign – as adults many of us seem to forget those simple rules."
[FYI: Ketchum Global Research & Analytics designed and analyzed Liberty Mutual's national phone survey of 1,004 adults aged 18 to 65, with Braun Research fielding it between April 1 and April 10 this year. Also note that Liberty Mutual's pedestrian he survey has a margin of error of +/-3.1 percentage points.]
Such pedestrian safety concerns are valid, Melton stressed, as a 2011 report from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) found that 1,152 people were treated in hospital emergency rooms after being injured while walking and using a cell phone or some other electronic device.
Yet the firm's poll also found that while pedestrians, like drivers, recognize the dangers of their actions they do not modify them for safety. For example, three in five drivers say talking on the cell phone while driving is dangerous for pedestrians, yet 70% still admit to doing so.
Likewise, drivers realize that talking on the phone, texting and listening to loud music is dangerous for pedestrians yet a significant percentage of respondents continue to engage in behavior they recognize as risky, Melton noted.
"The reality is that neither drivers nor pedestrians seem to actually realize the dangers of their distracted behaviors," he added. "The fact that drivers and pedestrians continue to engage in dangerous habits, despite claiming to recognize the risk, suggests that the majority of Americans are taking a cavalier, 'it won't happen to me' attitude."
Somehow, though, that just doesn't surprise me.

The Sentinel-News has been judged the state's best newspaper of its size for 2011 in the annual Kentucky Press Association's Excellence in Kentucky Newspapers Contest at the awards banquet Friday in Lexington.
The newspaper won 33 total awards in the Multiweekly Division, including having the best Web site in its class and taking first place in 10 categories for reporting and editing. There were 7 second-place certificates, 10 thirds and 4 honorable mentions in the 26 categories.
It was the second time in three years the newspaper has won the General Excellence award – it finished 3rd in 2010 – and perhaps is the best showing the newspaper ever has had in the state's pre-imminent contest.
Editor Steve Doyle and staff writer Todd Martin each won three first-places, staff writer Lisa King won two, and sports writer Josh Cook and graphic designer Todd Stephenson won one apiece.
"I am very proud of our employees and the success we achieved at the KPA awards," Sentinel-News Publisher Kerry Johnson said. "It is rewarding to be recognized by your peers, and it's always nice to be first.
"We strive to provide the best and most pertinent news for our Shelby County readers. We are dedicated to providing the best product allthe time, and we hope you appreciate what goes into your hometown newspaper."
Doyle won in Best Editorial for an editorial questioning the application of shock probation in the case of Tonya Nicole Brown, in Best General News for his profile of legendary Saddlebred trainer Don Harris's getting a lifetime award and in Best Business/Agribusiness for his detailing the transition of a longtime veterinary practice to its new owner.
Martin took first place for a portfolio of entries in all the major page-design categories: Best Front Page, Best Feature Page and Best Business/Agribusiness page.
King won in Best On-Going/Extended Coverage for her investigative series on shock probation and the case of Tonya Nicole Brown and for Best Spot News Coverage for an article about the trial of a man suing a doctor for amputating his penis during surgery.
Cook won in Best Sports Feature, for his profile of jockey Jon Court in his first Kentucky Derby, and Stephenson won in Best Graphic for showing how your tax dollar is divided among various entities.
Judges used words such as "good job," "good story-telling," "very engaging," "depth and detail," "stylish," and "good variety" to describe the winning entries.
"These awards are a testament to the hard work and dedication of a small staff to produce the best journalism it possibly can, week in and week out," Doyle said. "Contests are subjective and in the long run not all that valuable in measuring the impact of our work, but they certainly provide a nice reinforcement from our peers that what we are doing represents good work."
In addition to the first places, The Sentinel-News'winners were:
§ Second place: Cook in Best Sports Story; Martin in Best Enterprise or Analytical Story, King in Best Investigative Story or Series, Martin in Best Feature Picture, King in Best Picture Essay (Spot, General or Feature), Martin in Best Graphic and Doyle in Best Sports Page/Section.
§ Third place: King in Best Feature Story, Cook in Best Sports Column, Spencer Jenkins in Best Sports Feature Story, Jenkins in Best Enterprise or Analytical Story, Doyle/King in Best On-Going/Extended Coverage Story, Jenkins in Best Picture Essay (Spot, General or Feature), the staff in Special Section for its Horse Industry 2011, Doyle in Best Graphic, the staff in Best Lifestyle Page and Doyle in Best Editorial Page.
§ Honorable mention: Doyle in Best Sports Column, Jenkins in Best Sports Feature Story, Doyle/Jenkins in Best On-Going/Extended Coverage Story and Martin in Best Business/Agribusiness Story.

Above: a cold December morning in Middlebury. Are we in for a similar scene this Thanksgiving weekend?
Weather is on the minds of many Vermont residents this week. Thanksgiving weekend involves travel for many people, and is also around the time that more wintry weather starts building into the region. This year will be no exception – a storm is forecast to move into the area on Wednesday, and it's hard to say if the storm will bring a drenching, frigid rain or the year's first significant snowfall.
ADDISON COUNTY — Those who sensed that the first five months of this year were wetter than normal were correct. Precipitation at the Burlington International Airport so far in 2011 is 24.4 inches — almost double the 12.41 inches in a typical year.
"Last year was close to normal," said National Weather Service meteorologist Jessica Neiles. "We were 0.32 inches below normal. Now we're 11.99 inches above normal."

timpet needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 46 designs submitted by 22 freelance designers.
Captain Fair
We are a startup fair trade packaged goods company. Our products will only be sourced from fair trade providers.
Broad - kids through to grandparents.
We want to create a brand mascot. A cartoon character who will come to be associated with the brand. Our cartoon character is a superhero - a caped crusader - who fights for the rights of the downtrodden and oppressed. He stamps out unfairness wherever he sees it. For this purpose we'll call him Captain Fair. We need a cartoon character to depict Captain Fair. Like Superman he has a 'clark kentish' alter ego and steps into his Captain Fair persona whenever he finds wrongs to be righted. We envisage Captain Fair as being a caricature of a super hero. He isn't particularly statuesque; he certainly isn't like batman or superman. He's probably more like a stretched out version of Mr. Magoo. He is friendly and endearing; he may be a little bit bumbling but he always manages to get the job done. He should have broad appeal from kids to grandparents. He can't be too edgy and, whilst he is mysterious, he certainly isn't dark (in a gothic way). The simpler the illustration is the better.

Léa is a French-Argentinian artist living in New York. She reunites with three old friends in Tuscany, where the four of them studied together with a very special maestro ten years before. They became writers, but she chose a different artistic path and is the most successful of the group. As they are all re-encountering, an incident pushes Léa to face her difficult past and to make a life-changing decision.
Writer and producer statement
Sunnydaysweety Black UA092010 Dress Mid W Sleeves Mini F Black 2017 Flare
Ricercare is my second short movie as a screenwriter, actress and producer; it was shot in Italy and is a French-Italian coproduction.
I wrote Ricercare at a very special moment of my life: I had been living in San Francisco for 4 years when I lost my job and work visa without any notice and I had to go back to Europe. When I arrived to France, I wrote a script about this traumatic experience, a satire, and then life happened: I learned that Abraham Heisler, a great American director from the same San Francisco collective of filmmakers I was part of, was going to be in Tuscany for two months to teach filmmaking. We both wanted to work together – I offered him to make a short movie in Italy. This is how the beautiful adventure of Ricercare all started.
My proposition to Abe was the following: instead of writing the script and finding the resources to produce it, I offered him to do the reverse. We could see what resources, actors, locations were available on-site and then I would write a script according to those restrictions. I had a basic storyline I wanted to develop, on which Abe and I agreed, but he trusted me completely with the writing.
I was born in France, my father's family is Italian, so is my last name, and my mother's family is from Spain. I have always been closer to my Spanish roots, I spent all my summers as a kid in Spain, I speak the language fluently (I am bilingual), unlike Italian, that I got to learn as I was making my movie, I studied Spanish at college, and my Spanish grand-mother was one of the most influential persons in my life. This first chapter of RicercarePuma Chains Coral Tee Prime Archive T7 Sportstyle Dusty ZZSqA4F8 is about re-encounters, as I was myself reconnecting with my Italian roots and learning how to speak this beautiful language I had always understood, but never really spoken.
I once told a friend from Buenos Aires that I had most likely been Argentinian in a past life, and here was his beautiful answer: "no, nena, sos argentina en esta vida" ("no, you're Argentinian in this life"). I have strong links with Argentina: its people, its music, its language, its dance, its history deeply resonate with me. Léa, the protagonist, is French & Argentinian, she is the daughter of a desaparecido, and it was important for me to suggest it in a subtle way, with the reserve of an author who has not lived this tragic episode of the history of Argentina.
This first chapter of Ricercare revolves around simple questions: how can you move forward beyond a certain point in your adult life when your past has a huge question mark? How do you deal with disappearance rather than death? How can you reconcile with your painful family history, and all the more when it is directly linked to the tragic history of your own country? How can you forgive?
