Latest PLO Ploy;
Geneva Conventions
By TAMAR LEVY
GENEVA (JTA) The
Palestinian Liberation Organi-
zation, in another ploy to adv-
ance the concept of Palestinian
statehood, says it wants to
sign the Geneva Conventions.
Nabil Ramlawi, the PLO rep-
resentative to the United
Nations in Geneva, informed
the International Red Cross
here that he would make the
request of the Swiss Foreign
The Geneva Conventions,
the international code of
humanitarian law, are admin-
istered by the Swiss federal
government. They have been
ratified by 166 nations.
The PLO request poses a
dilemma for the Swiss govern-
ment. Switzerland has not rec-
ognized the Palestinian state
proclaimed in Algiers last year
by the Palestinian National
Council, the so-called Palestin-
ian parliament-in-exile.
According to Swiss law, only
a state with international
boundaries can be recognized
as such.
But a request to sign the
Geneva Conventions may not
be unilaterally dismissed.
Switzerland is bound by the
regulations to notify all 166
signatories, which will have six
months to accept or reject the
To qualify, the requesting
party must be recognized by a
substantial number of nations
and belong to a regional organ-
Though non-existent, the
Palestinian state has been at
least partially recognized by 90
governments and is a member
of the Arab League.
Permission to sign the
Geneva Conventions would be
a significant step forward for
the PLO in its campaign to
promote the idea of Palestin-
ian statehood by acquiring the
rights and trappings of a sov-
ereign state.
Danish Police Uncover
Arms Cache
... Pro-Palestinian Link
By ELI KOHEN
The discovery here of an arms
cache Danish police said was
sufficient to start a small war
has resulted in the arrests of
10 people suspected of staging
robberies in support of a Syr-
ian-based Palestinian terrorist
The suspects are all Danish
nationals, one of them born in
Jordan. They were remanded
in custody for 21 days, during
which time the police hope to
gather enough evidence to sup-
port a charge sheet.
A number of suspects have
been under investigation for
some time. Six arrests were
made last month, when five
men and a woman were charg-
ed with a series of robberies in
and around Copenhagen be-
tween 1980 and 1983.
They were also accused of
kidnapping a bank director in
1980 and holding him for ran-
The proceeds of those and
other robberies since 1983
amounted to about 70 million
Danish kroner, the equivalent
of $10 million.
According to the police, the
money was sent by Syrian dip-
lomatic mail to the Popular
Front for the Liberation of
Palestine, a hard-line faction
of the Palestine Liberation
Organization headed by
George Habash.
Diplomatic mail can be dis-
patched from a special desk at
Copenhagen airport, free of
customs inspection or control.
While Syria has no resident
ambassador in the Scandinav-
ian countries, the Syrian na-
tional airline flies regularly
between Copenhagen and Da-
Discovery of the weapons
stock resulted from a road
accident. Police searching a
wrecked car found a quantity
of money and the address of an
apartment in a Copenhagen
Searching the premises,
they found weapons, ammuni-
tion, forged passports and
drivers licenses, and a police
Likud's Histadrut Candidate
Likud, confident it can make a
strong showing in next fall's
Histadrut elections, nomi-
nated Yaacov Shamai to be its
candidate for secretary-gen-
eral of Israel's trade union
federation, which has been
dominated by Labor since its
inception nearly 70 years ago.
Foreign Minister Moshe
Arens, chairman of the Likud
Secretariat, claimed the public
understands that the Labor
Party "has strangled the econ-
omy with its policies. He said
he was sure Likud can win.

Sharon Challenges Shamir Plan
By DAVID LANDAU
Prime Minister Yitzhak Sha-
mir faces an imminent show-
down within his own Herut
party over his proposals for
Palestinian elections in the
West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Industry and Trade Minister
Ariel Sharon, the most out-
spoken opponent of the plan,
announced that he would con-
vene "within 10 days" the
Herut Central Committee,
which he chairs, to debate the
The elections are the corner-
stone of the peace plan Israel
has presented to the United
States. The idea is for Pales-
tinians in the territories to
elect representatives with
whom Israel would negotiate
an interim autonomy arrange-
But Sharon, calling the plan
"a major calamity," claims it
would lead to the creation of a
Palestinian state "and to the
partition of Jerusalem."
Political observers say that
if Shamir and his closest ally,
Foreign Minister Moshe
Arens, are unable to head off
the Central Committee ses-
sion, they will face a fierce
battle between Herut hard-
liners and the relatively mod-
erate elements in the party.
A key figure is housing Min-
ister David Levy, who is
deputy premier. While usually
moderate in Herut affairs, he
has spoken out against aspects
of Shamir's plan.
But political observers say
that even if Levy backs
Sharon, Shamir will still com-
mand a sizeable majority in the
Central Committee, whose
membership exceeds 2,000.

JEWISH PROTEST. PARIS French Jews, waving Israeli
flags and banners, protest the first official visit of PLO leader
Yasir Arafat here. The banner of the Jewish community of the
Belleville district reads; "Mitterrand betrayal. Hostage of the
terrorist PLO." The protest took place in front of the Rue
Copernic Synagogue where four people were killed and a dozen
wounded in an October 1981 terrorist attack. While the organized
community was vigorously protesting Arafat's visit, a number of
Jewish intellectuals planned a meeting with the PLO leader.

Arafat's French Connection
When French President Francois Mitter-
rand made known his intention to meet with
Palestine Liberation Organization Chairman
Yasir Arafat, two goals were met: he helped to
further legitimize terrorist movement; and he
put the French Jewish community in a defen-
sive position.
Having consummated the deal struck to
meet with Arafat but not grant him the full
treatment normally accorded a head-of-state
Mitterrand apparently attempted to put the
best face on the meeting and garner for
himself a reputation as an international states-
The result of the newest French connection
is that another Geneva-type statement dis-
avowing past PLO policy has been made .. .
Refusing to reconfirm or reaffirm or rede-
fine what he meant by "null and void" in
relation to the Palestine National Covenant
which calls for the extinction of the Jewish
state, Arafat once again equivocated.
PLO lieutenants who contradict Arafat in
the echo of his words do little, as well, to
inspire confidence in their chairman's dubious
We view with disfavor the kinds of invita-
tions that lead to Arafat playing the spotlight.
Currying favor with world leaders in the form
and fashion that Arafat has, to date, does not
accomplish the real goals that would further
Mideast peace.
PLO Redundancy
Yasir Arafat made the news last week for
his use of familiar rhetoric.
The Palestinian Liberation Organization
Chairman suggested, in French, that his PLO
covenant was "null and void" as it related to
Seems the charter itself uses the same
language: Article 19 reads that the existence
of the State of Israel is null and void.

While the debate over the
wisdom of Israel's political pol-
icies toward peace negotia-
tions with the Palestinians and
the "Who Is a Jew" issue are
necessary and essential, it is
vital that we not lose sight of
the core reality of what Israel
represents in the context of
4,000 years of Jewish history.
Reviewing the desperate
conditions of Jewry prior to
the creation of Israel, Dr. Leo
Pinsker, the Jewish doctor of
Odessa, wrote in his classic,
"Auto-Emancipation," that
because of their statelessness
and lack of power over their
lives, "the world beheld the
Jewish people as the eerie fig-
ure of a corpse wandering
among the living."
This "ghost-phenomenon of
a wandering corpse" among
the nations inspired a "ghost
terror, Judeophobia."
With all its real problems,
Israel's existence as a sover-
eign state has ended that ghost
condition of the Jewish Dias-
pora. It is the one sure haven
whose gates are open to any
Jew anywhere who suffers or
who is threatened.
Israel's existence has ended
the role of Jews as victims of
history and has invested the
whole of Jewry with the power
of mastery over our fate and
Yom Ha'atzmaut is an
important time to restore that
historic perspective.

Q: You said in French that the Charter is caduque, that is
to say nullified "
Arafat: "That is your translation. Would it make sense
for me to teach you how translate?"
Q: "Let's say that it has expired (Arabic: Faata alaiha
alzaman) "
Arafat: "It has aged (Arabic: Taqaadamat)."
Q: "Fine, the translation is: 'It has aged'."
Arafat: "The word Taqaadamat appears in many verses
in the Koran with regard to other [earlier] verses. Does this
mean that these other verses were nullified? No."
Q: "If the Charter can be amended only by the PNC, are
you ready to convene a meeting on the issue? Is there a
possibility "
Arafat: "Can anyone claim that it is possible to change
something adopted by the PNC not by means of the PNC
members, whether it concerns political decisions, the
Declaration of Independence, or the Charter."
Stamp Memorial
L^ttBFS from our readers:
an effort that enabled thou-
sands of Jewish immigrants to
adapt to their new land while
continuing their traditional
religious education.
The stamp recognizing Dr.
Revel is the 35th issue in the
U.S. Postal Service's Great
American Series. Unlike a
commemorative stamp, which
is available for a short time
only to mark a special event or
anniversary, Great American
stamps are issued on a long-
term basis.
Jewish people across Amer-
ica should take special pride in
the unique honor bestowed on
Dr. Bernard Revel.
An eminent Jewish scholar
and educator received the very
distinct honor of being immor-
talized on a United States
postage stamp. Dr. Bernard
Revel, president of Yeshiva
University for 25 years, is now
featured on a $1 stamp. The
stamp was issued in conjunc-
tion with the centennial of
Yeshiva University, the
nation's oldest and largest
institution of higher learning
under Jewish auspices.
A highly regarded Talmudic
scholar, Dr. Revel came to the
United States in 1906 and, in
1915, was named president of
Yeshiva. While there, he
implemented a curriculum that
combined Jewish studies with
a secular educational program,

with reporters after Gernoit
Jellin, the Republican chair-
man in the town of Dachau,
told a crowded meeting that
the town was tired of being
linked with the adjacent camp.
Jellin's statements were
enthusiastically applauded by
supporters and touched off
rumors that the party is about
to urge a closure of the memo-
rial site.
Jellin is a police officer who
has been presented as a typical
example of the broad support
the Republicans allegedly
enjoy among men and women
in uniform.
Schoenhuber vowed recently
to disclose the names of sev-
eral generals in active service
who support the party.
He said that the planned
youth center is irrelevant and
could only harm the cause of
fighting extremism and
"We just think enough is
enough," he said. But he den-
ied that the Republicans would
call for the closure of the pre-
sent memorial.

correspondents who use the
cards, saying they should be
thrown out of the country.
Police Minister Haim Bar-Lev
said he would investigate poss-

the issuing of the cards.
The FPA responded to the
government saying that re-
porters had accepted the cards
for their own safety. Israeli
police posing as journalists and
using counterfeit press creden-
tials in the West Bank and

American Tourist Profiled
By DAVID LANDAU
JERUSALEM (JTA) Statistics recently published by
the Ministry of Tourism revealed that three-quarters of the
Americans who come to Israel as tourists are Jewish.
A profile of American tourists who come to Israel shows
that 51 percent come alone, 34 percent arrive as couples
and 15 percent come in families of three or more.
Two-thirds of them make their own travel arrangements
rather than join an inclusive tour.
Some of the findings include:
74 percent of the American tourists are Jewish.
36 percent come in inclusive package tours.
41 percent make their decisions six months or more
before their trip.
99 percent arrive on scheduled flights, only one percent
on charters.
42 percent give the desire to visit relatives or friends as
one of their reasons for traveling.
61 percent stay in hotels. Average expenditure is
$1,300, or $62 per day.
90 percent of respondents to a ministry survey say they
have had a good or very good time.

Showdown Demanded Over Election Law
By DAVID LANDAU
Prime Minister Yitzhak Sha-
mir faces an imminent show-
down within his own Herut
party over his proposals for
Palestinian elections in the
West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Industry and Trade Minister
Ariel Sharon, the most out-
spoken opponent of the plan,
announced that he would con-
vene "within 10 days" the
Herut Central Committee,
which he chairs, to debate the
The elections are the corner-
stone of the peace plan Israel
has presented to the United
States. The idea is for Pales-
tinians in the territories to
elect representatives with
whom Israel would negotiate
an interim autonomy arrange-
But Sharon, calling the plan
"a major calamity," claims it
would lead to the creation of a
Palestinian state "and to the
partition of Jerusalem."
Political observers say that
if Shamir and his closest ally,
Foreign Minister Moshe
Arens, are unable to head off
the Central Committee ses-
sion, they will face a fierce
battle between Herut hard-
liners and the relatively mod-
erate elements in the party.
A key figure is housing Min-
ister David Levy, who is
deputy premier. While usually
moderate in Herut affairs, he
has spoken out against aspects
of Shamir's plan.
But political observers say mand a sizeable majority in the

When you think of visiting Israel, you think more of pilgrimages to the Wailing Wall and Mount Sinai than boutique hotels and off-road motorcycle racing. But with the country, now 60 years old, breaking tourism records and shattering the stained-glass ceiling of religious pilgrimage, it is attracting pleasure seekers from all over the world.
"Israel is changing, and for the first time in our history, Israel has even become trendy," said Oren Drori, head of marketing administration for the Ministry of Tourism Israel, during a recent visit to Toronto. "It's a regular, normal destination, and tourism only continues to grow."
Attracting more than three million visitors each year, with 75,000 tourists going from Canada for an average of 10 days, Israel is positioning itself as a cultural destination to rival Italy and France.
In other words, these days, Israel is feeling more like a holiday and less like a religion class.
With this in mind, we asked Oded Grofman, the consulate director for Canada and former resident of Tel Aviv, to offer suggestions for five trips that would appeal to different types of travellers. Herewith, his recommendations:
Eilat, on the southernmost tip of the Red Sea and a 45-minute flight from Tel Aviv, is known for its scuba diving, King City amusement park and the underwater observatory at Dolphin Reef. Children will enjoy What's Up Observatory (972-54-4389037), an astral tour of the constellations high up over the desert, while their parents take in the Turkish bath and indoor mall at the Dan Eilat Hotel (972-8-6362222). There are many activities, such as off-road Segway riding and jeep safaris, that can be arranged through the resort, but no trip to Eilat is complete without diving in its crystal-clear waters. With more than 20 dive sites and 10 dive centres, Eilat attracts people from all over the world who want to swim through the caves 500 metres north of the Egyptian border or splash with the dolphins at the legendary Dolphin Beach (972-800-203039).
Whenever Tel Aviv plays host to presidents and dignitaries, VIPs check in at the David Intercontinental (972-3-7951111), a 555-room mega-hotel with Italian marble in the bathroom and a panoramic view of the Mediterranean. Boasting many art galleries (including Chelouch Contemporary, hosting Gideon Gechtman's edgy "Launching Apparatus" through Nov. 1), three-star Michelin restaurants and boutique shopping at Gucci and Chanel, Tel Aviv is a destination for those who want luxury. The newest stars on this scene are Montefure (972-2-6221111), a boutique hotel more South Beach than synagogue, and Rafael (972-3-5226464), the restaurant in the Dan Hotel (which recently finished a US$20-million renovation). Rafi Cohen is the city's most famous celebrity chef, which might explain why things are most humming after 10 p. m.
In 2006, a vintner published The Wine Route of Israel in an effort to draw attention to the 25 large wineries and 100 smaller boutiques situated between the Upper Galilee in the north and the Mitzpeh Ramon in the south. Odem Mountain Winery (972-04-6871122) is a family business located 1,000 metres above sea level in an oak forest that produces 30,000 bottles of merlot, cabernet and organic blends every year. Carmel's Zichron Ya'acov Wine Cellars (972-04-6290977) is the largest in Israel, with 115-year-old cellars situated on the slopes of Mount Carmel, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. The winery, founded by Baron Edmond de Rothschild in 1887, is famous throughout the Middle East for its cabernet sauvignon. But no true oenophile can leave Israel without swilling the kosher wine at Meron Vineyards (972-4-6868740), the country's first boutique winery in the city of Sefad. Producing 60,000 bottles annually, this vineyard in the Upper Galilee routinely scores the country's highest marks for a fruity, tea-tinged merlot that has been favourably compared with French Bordeaux. For more oenophile investigations, see www.finewinesofisrael.com.
White-water rafting in the Jordan River is an adventurous way to experience Israel's Galilee and Golan regions in the north (Sde Nehemya, 972-4-6946010). Situated just beneath Syria and Jordan, the green and mountainous area is also ideally suited to horseback riding and rappelling off Mount Hermon, the second-highest mountain in Israel. Skiers will want to shred Mount Hermon Reserve (04-6981337), the only slopes in the country, and bicyclists of all skill levels will love Israel, currently going through a biking renaissance with bike shops experiencing a 20% growth in sales. There's a famous 120 km bike path between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem and tourists will definitely want to take advantage of the country's new bike rental program. However, for those who prefer their two wheels to come equipped with an engine, a quick e-mail to the Israel Motorcycle Club (www.motorcycle.org. il/) will lead thrill-seekers to monthly off-roading races and rides.
Outside Haifa, on 15-acres of private woodlands in the Haifa forest, is the Carmel Forest Spa (972-4-8307888), the largest and most luxurious in a country known for its meditative soaps and natural healing ointments. At Carmel, guests must leave their cellphones at the gate and are given a linen wardrobe for the week. Crammed with walking paths, spa treatments and pools, Carmel has been tempting tourists away from the world-famous Dead Sea, the lowest point (and most famous natural spa) on Earth. But as good as Carmel is, we know you're still going to exfoliate in the Dead Sea. Once there, kick back either at the Novotel Thalassa Dead Sea (972-8-9553333), which features mineral water pools and a solarium, or try the mud treatments and yoga classes at the Lot Spa Hotel (972-8-6689200), whose name gives away its delicious intent.

Last night, in The Friends of Barack Obama, Part 1 I reviewed Obama's relationship with Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, who helped to kick off Obama's first political campaign and with whom Obama's campaign says he has a "friendly" relationship. Ayers and Dohrn were domestic terrorists in the 1960s and 1970s, and they are as radical now as they ever were, as evidenced by their own words. Obama emerged from the far-left fringe of Chicago politics, and his relationship with Ayers and Dohrn, like his relationship with spiritual mentor Jeremiah Wright, raises important questions about Obama's own political beliefs.
Obama has defended his relationship with Ayers and Dohrn by saying that Ayers did "reprehensible" things forty years ago, when Obama was eight years old. He says that Ayers and Dohrn are now respectable, mainstream figures in Chicago. But the reality is quite different; they, like Wright, are anything but "mainstream" in their views of America. The audio clips in which Ayers and Dohrn reveal their still-radical views were uncovered by Guy Benson, a recent college graduate who works for radio station WYLL in Chicago. Guy writes to introduce this series of clips:
In the process of doing some late-night research for both my own radio show and the program I produce, I stumbled upon a number of breathtaking videos featuring unrepentant terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn. Both are now gainfully employed at major Chicago-area universities, and both have longtime connections to presidential candidate Barack Obama.
The audio linked below falls into two categories:
First, a number of "terror era" comments from Ayers and Dohrn from the late 1960s and 1970s emphasize how truly radical, violent, and virulently anti-American they were.
The second batch comes from a recent reunion of aging radicals in November 2007. These clips show that Obama's pals are as unhinged as ever, and they severely undermine Team Obama's spin that Ayers and Dohrn are now "respectable" members of the political "mainstream."
The Top Five – THEN and NOW:
1. William Ayers Then: clip titled- Ayers fighting and upheaval
In 1970, the Weather Underground's top leadership was forced to go into hiding after three fellow weathermen accidentally blew themselves up while building an explosive devise in New York City. The bomb was intended to target a military dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey. While living in the shadows, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn participated in a series of short films. In this clip, Ayers explains how living underground served as a convenient "base" for his group's destructive plots.

2. William Ayers Now: – Ayers 2007 rebellion and Mao
Ayers addresses a Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) reunion in November 2007. He favorably quotes Chairman Mao's right-hand man while discussing the past and future roles of revolution.

3. William Ayers Now: Ayers on leftist strategy
Addressing the SDS reunion in 2007, Ayers outlines the Left's strategy for the future, which requires them to "speak in a language that is large, and generous, and encompassing and then we have to act." (One wonders if a certain Left-blessed presidential candidate with a nice smile and a vague mantra of "change" might fit the bill perfectly.)

4. Bernadine Dohrn Then: Dohrn says "guard your children"
In this vintage recording (circa 1970), the voice of Bernadine Dohrn warns Americans that the Weather Underground is planning a series of violent attacks. She cautions her fellow citizens to guard their colleges, banks, and even their children. Dohrn explains that the revolution is designed to bring American society (or the "pitiful, helpless giant," as she so elegantly phrases it) "to its knees."

5. Bernadine Dohrn Now: US violent "monster"
At the same 2007 SDS reunion, Dohrn quotes Martin Luther King, Jr., referring to the US government as "the greatest purveyor of violence" in the world. She says she believes this sentiment to be true today. She tells the audience that living in America constitues living in "the belly of the beast" and "the heart of the monster."

Does Barack Obama really consider these views to be "respectable" and "mainstream," as his web site indicates? If so, what does that tell us about Barack Obama and the hard-left milieu from which he emerged? Likewise, what are we to make of Obama's suggestion that Jeremiah ("God damn America") Wright's church is "not particularly controversial"? A politician can't pick his relatives, but he can choose his spiritual mentor and those who host fundraisers on his behalf. Barack Obama owes the American people an explanation of his choice of friends and political associates.

A kidney, like the one that served as a source for the NRK cell line, is a major vertebrate excretory organ. The basic filtering unit of the kidney is the nephron, which consists of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. A normal adult human kidney may contain more than a million nephrons. Through the use of countercurrent exchange mechanisms, nephrons filter all of the water and soluble materials that pass through them. The units then reabsorb the substances that are needed and excrete the remainder. This function is extremely important to the body, which can suffer greatly if toxic substances are allowed to build-up. Humans can often lead a normal life if only one kidney is in good health, but if both of the organs are damaged, dialysis becomes necessary on a regular basis in order to filter the blood mechanically.
The F-actin present in the culture of NRK epithelial cells presented in the digital image above was targeted with Alexa Fluor 350 conjugated to phalloidin, a bicyclic peptide isolated from the death cap mushroom (Amanita phalloides). In addition, the culture was labeled for mitochondria with MitoTracker Red CMXRos, and for nuclei with SYTOX Green. Images were recorded in grayscale with a QImaging Retiga Fast-EXi camera system coupled to an Olympus BX-51 microscope equipped with bandpass emission fluorescence filter optical blocks provided by Omega Optical. During the processing stage, individual image channels were pseudocolored with RGB values corresponding to each of the fluorophore emission spectral profiles.

text: I. The Snitch WitnessCooperating witnesses — commonly known as "snitches" or "informants" — are witnesses who make deals with the government. The testimony of these witnesses is notoriously unreliable. In fact it has been said that lying informant witnesses are the fourth most common cause of wrongful convictions.1Informants give testimony against the defendant in exchange for money, help in their own criminal case, or other considerations. They sometimes claim to be eyewitnesses. They often claim to be ear-witnesses. In one way or another, their job is to tell the jury something that helps the government make its case against the defendant. Some informants are forced into the role through overcharging and other harsh tactics by the government attorney who knows the cooperator is associated with the defendant. All informants have bias that a defense attorney can exploit.Cross-examining a cooperating witness is an extremely important part of a criminal trial an

Nov. 19, 2001
The Gaucho cross country program broke new ground on Monday, with their first NCAA appearance. The championship meet, hosted this year by Furman University in South Carolina, was won by Colorado, who overtook Stanford by one point. The Gauchos finished in 17th place amongst the competitive 31-team field of the country's elite teams.
UCSB was led by senior Josh Horton, who placed a stunning 17th place overall, in an effort that head coach Pete Dolan labeled, "his best race as a Gaucho." The Virginia native, which has earned him the name "Beast from the East", covered the 10,000 meter course in a blistering time of 29:49. Horton ran a typical Gaucho race, racing conservatively in 50th place through the first two miles, but moved up through the field during the final 4.2 miles.
"I felt winded through the first 400 meters of the race," said Horton. "But after the quick start, I relaxed and focused on executing my race plan."
Running second for the Gauchos, and concluding his cross country career at UCSB, was Goleta native Eric Gans. Gans finished in 102nd overall, but in the 79th team scoring position. "I can't help but be a little disappointed," said the fifth-year senior. "But I learned a lot from this high-caliber race, and hopefully that will translate to future benefits in track."
Rounding out the Gaucho performances was junior Brandon von Guenthner in 130th with a time of 31:15, senior Aaron Sharp (142, 31:25), junior J.T. Service (149, 31:28), sophomore Chris White (178, 31:49), and junior Bryon Lamorandier (215, 32:32).
Overall the team was reasonably pleased with their effort. Entering the season without even being ranked in the top ten for the West Region, the Gauchos exceeded almost everyone's expectations as a top 20 team. Even with the team's 17th place finish, they rank in the elite top 4% of all Division I programs in the NCAA's second-most participated sport behind basketball.
"We went into the meet for our first time and beat our ranking," said Dolan. "I'm pleased with our position, even though the guys were hoping for a top 10 finish."
As a team, this concludes a season for a team that can be considered the finest cross country team in UCSB history, and perhaps one of the university's most accomplished teams ever. With five of the top seven members of the program walking on to the program without scholarship money (Sharp and Lamorandier being the two exceptions), few teams have such a collection of overachievers.
The entire team will now take a break from running, but training for track season will resume shortly. The team and staff also wanted to extend a special thanks to the overwhelming support from parents, alumni, and fans they received during the season, especially those who made the trip across the country to support the team in South Carolina.

I think what annoys me so much about the impending coronation of "The Artist" isn't the film itself - as I've said elsewhere, it's just an inoffensive little ball of feel-good nothing - but that it's not even the best of the nominees at the things it does do: It's not the best paean to Silents, that's "Hugo" (flawed but ambitious beats well-executed mediocrity.) It's not the best harmlessly-silly romantic comedy about The Good Old Days, that's "Midnight in Paris" (which unlike "Artist" also manages to be ABOUT SOMETHING.)
"Moneyball" and "Descendants" are better "Older Gentleman Evaluating Life Choices" movies, "Tree of Life" wrings waaaaay more out of recreating the mid-50s than "Artist" gets out of the 20s... hell, I'd go so far as to say that "War Horse" does a better job channeling John Ford and Walt Disney than "Artist" does channeling it's grab-bag of Silent influences (it also has a more likable Silent Protagonist than

Our grills aren't just for grown-ups, so we're delighted to announce that Harvester has been awarded second place in the Soil Association's 2015 Out to Lunch Survey which ranks the best high street restaurants for families.
With the help of an army of parents, the Soil Association has surveyed some of the UK's biggest and most popular chains on the food and service they are offering children. Harvester beat 19 other high street restaurants based on our healthy choice kids' menu, our family friendly environment and the freshness of our food.
Rob Percival from the Soil Association said, "We're pleased to see Harvester score so highly. Since the last league table they've swapped sugary drinks for no added sugar options, have signposted 5-a-day and lower sugar and salt options throughout the menu, amongst other improvements. This is great support for parents who want their kids to eat well."
Here at Harvester, the kids can tuck into the same freshly cooked grills, sides and unlimited salad as the grown-ups, but in sizes that are just right for them. Our kids' menu is perfect for under-10s and has been developed to offer Mums and Dads peace of mind when feeding the family – you can even book a table so those little mouths don't have to wait to be fed.

A bath in a river unexpectedly propelled one homeless Texas man from rags to riches — $77,000 of them.
Timothy Yost, 46, has been allowed to keep the bag of cash and coins he found on a riverbank in January, after nobody else claimed it from the cops, the Austin American-Statesman reported.
The city council of Bastrop, Texas, voted unanimously to give him back his life-changing find, after a city attorney told the council that a police investigation found no indication it had been involved in crimes.
Yost had told cops he was walking down the banks of the Colorado River to wash his feet on Jan. 18 when he came upon a bag.
He said he kicked it, heard jangling and then opened it to find 70 damp $100 bills and 40 Krugerrands, collectible South African gold coins. All told, the riches were worth $77,000, according to the American-Statesman.
Yost went to the bank to try to exchange the wet bills for dry ones, but the suspicious bank teller told him she couldn't exchange them until they dried — and then called the police.
Yost told police where he'd found the bag of money. They took it and gave him a claim receipt.
After a month in the police department's evidence room, the money sat around for another three months waiting to be claimed before a property hearing determined the rightful owner.
Yost, meanwhile, sued to get the money returned.
"It is a great day for Mr. Yost," the lawyer who represented him said on the council's decision.
There's just one more thing between Yost and his lucky find: Bars. He is currently in jail on charges of public intoxication and criminal trespassing and is awaiting release.

Astros notes: Focus on fundamentals
Union reps pay visit
Wednesday marked the Kissimmee stop on the Major League Baseball Players Association spring tour, and Astros players met with union leadership in a lengthy post-practice conference.
Tommy Manzella — the Astros' co-player representative along with Jason Castro — declined to discuss specifics of the meeting, but he said it had the players' attention more than in past years.
"We have these meetings every year, but this was definitely a more important meeting because we have real issues coming up that could possibly affect the next year," Manzella said.
Union president Michael Weiner "didn't give us the whole book, but he gave us the chapters that he knew we were most interested in hearing about as players," Manzella said.
The collective bargaining agreement ends Dec. 11, though most in the game feel that the gulf in what the sides will be seeking will not be as wide as in the messier labor situations in professional basketball and football.
Baseball's last work stoppage was in 1994-95 and caused the cancelation of the 1994 World Series.
Focus on fundamentals
Players got their heaviest dose of conditioning to date on Wednesday as pitchers got the day off from throwing live batting practice and finished a short workout with a long running program in the outfield.
Position players took popups while pitchers worked on their bunting, running and sliding as the fundamentals of spring made a cameo amid days of building up to game readiness in the bigger picture.
"The effort on … all of our drills that we did and the fundamentals we did, I was very happy with it, and the way we finished up running was very good," manager Brad Mills said.
Even the relievers engaged in the bunting and sliding drills, often looking uncoordinated at both.
"We have to run them through it," Mills said. "We never know what happens as we come along, and we might be able to find someone who does a real good job bunting as we run them through the drills."
Three sign
Three of the seven remaining unsigned Astros players agreed to terms on their one-year deals. Infielder Matt Downs will be signed for $421,000, while righthanded pitchers Cesar Carillo and Lance Pendleton will receive the minimum salary of $414,000 — all major league values of split contracts.
Four players — lefthanded pitcher J.A. Happ, righty Mark Melancon and infielders Tommy Manzella and Angel Sanchez — remain unsigned. They face a signing deadline of Feb. 27.
Taking it on the shin
The Astros had a scare with J.A. Happ, but Happ said it was just a "minor bruise" that formed after he hit a ball off his shin during a hitting drill. He had the shin wrapped after practice.
Alberto Arias did not throw to hitters from the mound on Wednesday — the latest delay in an unending recovery from shoulder problems. Manager Brad Mills did not have full confidence in his ability to throw today.
"It's better, but there's still a little hesitancy there with his soreness," Mills said. "Hopefully, he can come in today and throw live BP."
Infielder Angel Sanchez, who is working his way back from a muscle strain in his rib cage and is fighting for a backup job, could hit against live pitching today.

Finding Ease: Tip #1Tuesday, April 17th, 2012
The gardening season here in the 'North' is starting to ramp up which means that, as someone who works in the garden retail industry, my work hours are starting to increase and my work week lengthen. That's great for the bank account but, unless I'm careful, will wreak havoc with my garden and all my plans for this season. So, I've decided to look at all the little ways that I can streamline my gardening…without losing any of the joy, of course.
Tip #1 is the 'aha' moment from yesterday when, while looking through my seed packets to determine what next needed to be sown inside, I came across some sweet pea and Brazilian verbena seeds. Either flower can be started inside or sown directly into the soil outside but both flower earlier and, in the case of the perennial verbena, are hardier when sown inside. The trouble is that sowing inside is more time-consuming (potting up and hardening-off are two steps not necessary when sowing outside) and I save my precious time for plants like peppers and tomatoes that, unless started inside, will not produce anything due to our short growing season. So, I decided the risk was worth it and I'll sow them directly outside when the weather warms up a bit (can you believe we still have a bit of snow?).
To cover my bets a bit, I'll inoculate my sweet pea seeds. Inoculant contains Rhizobia bacteria which helps the members of the legume family (such as peas and beans) fix nitrogen from the air which makes them more productive. This bacteria is less active in cooler soils and, since sweet peas are always sown in the early spring when the soil is just this side of unfrozen, a little more of the Rhizobia will only be helpful.
The Brazilian verbena, however, is on its own.

Las zonas urbanos y rurales
Las zonas urbanos y rurales
Hi all!
Today was one of those incredible days that I feel so completely grateful to be working with Kiva. Here a few of my experiences...
Un dia con FAPE...
I awake with a jump to the alarm clock ringing in my ear. 5:30 am in Guatemala City and its time to start the day. I throw on my running shoes and hit the streets for my morning exercise. If I don't do it now, it simply doesn't get done. I weave through the streets of this immense city, dodging early morning traffic and squinting my eyes as the tropical mist drifts down from the surrounding mountaintops. It's a beautiful, crisp morning and as I round the corner on the way back to my hotel I prepare myself for the day to come.
At 7 am I'm met at my hotel by don Marcos of the Fundacion FAPE. An institution that has applied for partnership with Kiva, I have planned to spend the day with them, visiting clients, getting to know their operations and methodology, and finally training them on how to use the backend of the Kiva website. After a few initial introductions we're in the car and barreling through the morning traffic, on our way out of the city and up into the surrounding countryside to meeting with 2 groups of women who are involved in FAPE's Bancos de Confianza program. At 8:30 we pull into the first town and are met by a beautiful, vivacious woman dressed head to toe in stunning Guatemalan fabrics. She greets us warmly and hops in the back seat of the car to guide us to our destination~ her mother's house, and the meeting place of the first group we are to visit, Trabajadores del Fe.
We bounce along the recently re-done road (this mayor has gotten good ratings from the community for making a real investment in much needed infrastructure), and eventually pull up in front of the house. Ducking through the low-framed doorways (why do I wear heels to the field???), we enter the inner courtyard of dona Marta's house, and are greeted with warm smiles by the early arrivers. As is the tradition in this part of the world, we greet each person with "mucho gusto, que dios le bendiga" nice to meet you, may God bless you and then eventually find our seats near the front of the crowded space.
The woman begin to gather for their bi-monthly payment meeting, bringing their cuotas payments + interest + savings to deposit in the FAPE bank account, the 5th of what will be 12 payments in their loan cycle. When everyone has filed into the room we are introduced to the group, and I make a little speech on who I am and what I represent... Me llamo Michelle, vengo de un institucion en los estados que trabaja con instituciones microfinancieros para buscar recursos para que su banco pueda seguir adelante... At first these speeches were hard for me to make, I would get nervous and think I was intruding on the normal flow of events. But they've gotten easier, and as I grasp the local formalities used in public speech and feel more comfortable in each culture I visit, I've come to enjoy presenting myself as a representative of Kiva.
After our speeches heads bow and we begin the opening prayer. Each woman launches into her own oration, filling the meeting space at once with all colors and tones of voice, part Spanish, part local Mayan dialect. I'm moved close to tears by the grace of it all, the beautiful traditional dress of the women, their deep faith in God, their commitment to paying back the debt they've taken on, in the face of their extreme poverty. The prayer lasts a few moments and then its silence and down to business. Pens and paper come out, one by one the group members are called up to the table to make their payments.
I mull around the room and talk to some of the borrowers. Play with the kids. Learn about their businesses, why they chose to enter into this community bank, what their hopes and dreams are. Before I know its over and we're off to the next meeting. This one at 10am and just down the street... we enter into the second meeting space, a crumbling house kept so clean inside that I hesitate to enter with my shoes on. The same process ensues, although this time the women each take a moment to share stories of their work and what they are dedicated to en que se dedica..
Dona Marta, the community's true mover and shaker (she is the one that organized BOTH groups) pulls me aside to show me some of her beautiful textile work. She's about ½ way through making a traditional shirt that will be sold in the nearby market. The hand-made process takes 3 months to complete (!!!), and she earns about $400 for her labours. The detail of the patterns and the vibrant colours are astonishing, and as she walks me through the process I'm engrossed by her stories and the details she happily spoons up.
After another hour or so we bid farewell and head to grab a bite, then its back to the city to spend the afternoon in Villa Nueva, a severly marginalized slum on the outskirts of Guatemala city. Don Marcos navigates his way seamlessly through the choked traffic of this massive city, and the further out we travel from the city the more run down the neighborhood gets. Big stores cease to appear, the road narrows a bit, and the bumpy paved street turns to mud. We turn the corner and are confronted with a gray, muddy, broken down expanse of shacks that stretch out for ½ mile front of us and then crawl their way up a deteriorating hillside. Kids run through the streets and sewage leaks from the open pipes. Deep puddles litter the road, their pools a mixture of garbage, mud, food scarps, and just about any kind of wrapper you could imagine. People mull about, the women dressed in spotless modern clothes and done up with makeup, a sharp contrast to the backdrop of the slum.
Lost for a bit we poke around until finally locating the meeting site. This afternoon we've been scheduled for an appearance at the community bank, "Genesis." I duck through the doorway, make my introductions, and then settle in as an observer to my third bank meeting of the day. I'm immediately struck by the contrasts from the morning in the country. In the mountains all the woman wear traditional clothes, carry their money freely in their hands, converse openly and pat each of their sisters on the back with a que dios le bendiga my god bless you when entering and leaving. Dedicated to traditional crafts.. weaving, painting, each of the woman and their children spoke the local Mayan dialect, and switched freely in and out of it with Spanish. In contrast, here in the urban slum I found myself confronted with a strange version modernity.. women dressed in American clothes, high heels, carrying cell phones and fixing the wrinkles of their immaculately clean clothes. The meeting comes to a close as each women signs the "Acta," all 40 of them demonstrating their comfort with the written word (as compared to the majority of signatures in the morning realized via thumbprint). They converse solely in Spanish, and while friendly with each other the mood is much more about getting to the point~ making the payments and getting out of the meeting on time. Off to work, or to their families, with little time to spare.
I step out into the street and take in the scene. A boy who cannot be more than 6 years old carries a bundle of clothes twice the size of him upon his back. He stumbles through the muddy streets as a pack of dogs bark rabidly at a passing motorcycle. The day is grey and mist falls on the tin rooftops, accumulating drops of rains that fall onto the noses of curious children peeking up into the grey haze above. Reggaetone blares from a nearby store front. A plane swoops overhead.
As I take it all in I begin to see the other Guatemala. Decended from the mountaintops, these are the people who once lived off the land of this beautiful country. Who farmed, wove brightly colored fabrics and grew coffee and sugar cane for their families to live off of. These are the migrant souls who, with no work left to do, settled in the outskirts of the city to find work in nearby factories, or perhaps by going door-to-door selling their goods. Little by little they begin to abandon their traditions. Swap handmade fabrics for Chinese imports. Freshly harvested tomatoes for canned pasta sauce. Looking across the vast urban slum I feel the deep sadness of this life.. the descent down the muddy, barren hillside into the grey urban wasteland. The long hours of work, the daily struggle against sickness, and hunger.
As we inch our way out of the slum, however, however, I also see hope. I watch as the women laugh with each other, carrying their own payments book and receipts for the transactions they have just realized. They carry their heads high, proudly making their way home through the muddy streets after the meeting. Kids runs around them, stray dogs bark and neighbors wave from their doorways. We turn the corner and they wave as we exit the slum, smiling and thanking us for our visit.
Maybe we can't change the past, I think, but if anyone is going to change the future of this place, its these women. For this, we continue fighting...
We head to the office to learn how to use Kiva.
Until next time!

PARIS (AP) - The first day of Paris ready-to-wear collections, which showcases the design world's up-and-coming talents, is a day largely ignored by the top magazine editors.
PARIS (AP) � The first day of Paris ready-to-wear collections, which showcases the design world's up-and-coming talents, is a day largely ignored by the top magazine editors.
After attending the catwalks in New York, London and Milan many exhausted fashion insiders use it as a welcome chance to get back into shape and buck the sleep deprivation after hundreds of seemingly endless back-to-back shows.
But Tuesday demonstrated that while these fledgling day-one designers may be new, they still have something important to say, with the big trends in the season's fashion conversation so far, littering the catwalk on all sides of Paris.
The spring-summer 2014 collections saw Devastee hit the trend spot with its black and white designs seen from the likes of Jil Sander and Missoni in Milan, as too did Belgian designer Anthony Vaccarello with a provocative spin worthy of Donatella Versace.
Cedric Charlier dabbled in the 90s-era high-shine metallic look that's been seen in high rotation.
Aganovich, meanwhile, rounded the day with an alternative and inventive take on historical vestments.
Day one is becoming something that's harder to ignore.
Paris' fashion onslaught of 97 official shows and countless other off-calendar show continues Wednesday with Dries Van Noten, Guy Laroche, Gareth Pugh and Rochas.
Serbian designer Nana Aganovich was inspired by grand portraits of Elizabeth I and her layered fabrics and high collars.
If so, the queenly reference was hard to spot in the collection's billowing linens, tight angular hoods and soft harem pants.
Still, Aganovich put on a thoughtful and inventive show, with strong plays on shape.
In one all-black look, a square hood matched square shoulders with a high collar only to blow out into the Eastern-style curviness of harem pants.
Elsewhere, fabric that swept down diagonally in large rectangular earthy pink pleats from the midriff continued the exploration of shapes, at times giving silhouettes a certain ecclesiastical air.
A rich and playful jacquard motif also cropped up, sometimes accompanying a model with clown make up.
Swimwear and naval themes inspired Anthony Vaccarello this season.
But if only it could be this simple.
For spring-summer the young Belgian designer infused these references with his signature no-holds-barred raunchiness.
Most of the looks dripped with sex appeal in their melange of plunging necklines and breast-exposing mesh tops. That's not to mention myriad revealing straps that held together cave-woman style loin cloths.
But it was pure overkill with one splash-dye, cropped, white demin jacket which jarred against a split microskirt with red and black leather straps.
The best designs were, predictably, those that kept it simple.
One all-black look nicely twinned a thick, textured cropped T-shirt with oversize gems and a cotton vest that -- only slightly -- exposed the midriff. It was twinned with sober and classical black pants.
Next season Vaccarello might do well to tone it down a notch or three.
Kimono styles opened the show for Cedric Charlier in his Paris ready-to-wear outing.
The Belgian designer is noted for his varied styles � and this was seen in abundance on Tuesday's show as the fold over oriental jackets evolved into hippy-style, brightly striped vests and skirts in bright red, blue, white and black.
The finale � also one of the collection's most striking looks � was another style evolution completely: a space-age metallic ensemble in a beautiful red and green.
Despite the diverse musings, the collection held together thanks to Charlier's cleanly-cut, hard edged silhouettes and the leitmotif of geometric lines, on bands around the body or on lapels.
