Explaining the Aperture Illusion
Looking through a peephole can change the direction an object appears to move—a tilted rod going left to right seems to move downward at an angle when viewed through a hole (see video clip below). Dale Purves and his colleagues at Duke University think they know why. They asked volunteers to describe how they perceived the motion of moving lines seen through apertures. They also developed computer simulations of a virtual rod moving in three-dimensional space in which information regarding its direction was stripped out (via projection onto a two-dimensional surface). How the volunteers saw the movement nearly perfectly matched those generated by the flattened-out simulation, suggesting that images formed on our basically two-dimensional retinas do not convey aspects of three-dimensional motion. Hence, our perceptions of the directions of moving objects are mental constructs based on past experience. Scrutinize the analysis in the January 6 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA.

Protein For Sight
A protein called histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4), which regulates bone and muscle development, also promotes healthy vision, according to Harvard Medical School researchers. Reducing levels of this protein in the eyes of lab mice led to the death of retinal cells—specifically, rod photoreceptors and bipolar cells, which relay signals from photoreceptors to the optic nerve. Boosting its levels decreased naturally occurring death among the bipolar cells and prolonged the lives of photoreceptors in mice with diseased eyes. See more in the January 9 Science.

Silkworms: What the Astronauts Eat?
Interplanetary travel probably means that astronauts will need to carry ecosystems along to supply food and oxygen. Past studies of potential space food have considered poultry, fish and even snails, newts and sea urchin larvae, but they all have downsides. Chickens, for instance, require a lot of food and space, and aquatic life is sensitive to water conditions that may be hard to maintain.
Scientists at Beihang University in Beijing suggest recruiting silkworms, which are already eaten in parts of China. These insects breed quickly, require little space, food or water, and produce only minute amounts of excrement, which could serve as fertilizer for onboard plants. Silkworm pupae, which are mostly edible protein, contain twice as much essential amino acids as pork and four times as much as eggs and milk. The scientists, whose conclusions were published online December 24, 2008, by Advances in Space Research, also point out that chemical processes could even make the silk digestible.

Once certified in ITIL Foundation, you will be able to guide a business organization in executing the best IT service management practices along with using IT as a tool for its growth or change.
The ITIL Foundation certification is applicable in any organization for training since it is not based on any special technique—offering a wide variety of job opportunities in IT companies.

Moreover, the ITIL Foundation certification is the best among several other certification courses preferred by professionals of IT service management because it provides basic knowledge about the concepts, core principles, and best practices used in IT service management.
The ITIL framework presently offers four levels of the ITIL certification.
The first level of the ITIL certification is ITIL Foundation certification, which focuses on building standard terminology and methodology. Learners will obtain knowledge to support and deliver ITIL services. At this level, candidates understand the basics of ITIL and the ways to implement it in a workplace. Along with a practical approach to IT service management, this certification course also focuses on the approach and standards of quality management.
The second level of the ITIL certification is the Practitioner level. This level helps improve candidates' ability to adopt and adapt ITIL within their organizations. ITIL Practitioners learn how to foster a culture of continuous service improvement, as well as how to improve productivity, efficiency, and collaboration between ITSM and the organization as a whole.
The third level of the ITIL certification is the ITIL Intermediate certification. There are two categories of certification: Service Lifecycle and Service Capability.
The fourth level of the ITIL certification is ITIL Expert certification, which is delivered in modular form. Candidates must have passed the previous levels, proving they have the detailed skills and knowledge to clearly understand the entire system of ITIL. Candidates are allowed to choose from a variety of ITIL processes on the basis of their personal requirements. In order to receive the credential, candidates must possess complete and balanced knowledge of the lifecycle of ITIL service to obtain this certification.
The fifth level of the ITIL certification is the ITIL Master Level certification, which strengthens and widens the practical application of ITIL knowledge in a variety of settings.

The tools you'll need to attend training are:
The ITIL® 4 Certification Scheme comprises of the following levels:
One of the main characteristics of the new ITIL® 4 certification scheme is that it now
follows two different designation streams: ITIL Managing Professional (ITIL MP) and ITIL
Strategic Leader (ITIL SL). These two streams are intended to provide learners with
greater clarity about how and where they can improve their skills and set them apart
from peers.
To become an ITIL® Managing Professional (ITIL MP) learners must complete the
following modules:
To become an ITIL Strategic Leader (ITIL SL) learners must complete the following
*Universal module for both ITIL® designation streams
In order to be eligible to become an ITIL Master, learners must have both the ITIL
Managing Professional (ITIL MP) and ITIL Strategic Leader (ITIL SL) designations.
Further details about how to become an ITIL Master will be released at a later time studying for the ITIL Foundation exam.
ITIL® 4 should be seen as an expansion of the time-tested ITIL framework, not a replacement. ITIL®4 and ITIL® V3 provide guidance based on the same underlying principles, but ITIL® 4 takes a new approach to present this guidance. While ITIL® 4 retains many of the core elements of ITIL® V3, and much of the existing guidance will be recognizable in parts of ITIL® 4, the new modules are distinct from the old ones.
The transition will be a gradual process, allowing our learners to have enough time to move from ITIL® v3 to ITIL 4 and to continue collecting their ITIL v3 Intermediate credits to enable the transition to ITIL Managing Professional.
If you have achieved six credits or more since your V3 Foundation certification, then it is in your best interest to continue collecting V3 credits to prepare yourself for an easy transition to ITIL 4 and gain the ITIL Managing Professional designation.
You will need to reach seventeen credits to be eligible to take the ITIL Managing Professional transition module.

Action on bullying — Local school officials are doing their part to comply with a statewide effort to crack down on bullying.
Action on bullying — Local school officials are doing their part to comply with a statewide effort to crack down on bullying.
That is good news for all the local students who are potential targets for bullies, and make no mistake: that is all local students.
"Bullying is not a new problem. But it is becoming a more significant problem, and schools all over the country are starting to crack down," said Terrebonne Superintendent Philip Martin. "Anything that's intended to embarrass, humiliate, belittle — anything like that should not be tolerated."
Martin and his counterparts in Lafourche are taking the problem seriously and have signed onto the program, which includes a training program for all school employees on how to recognize bullying. It also includes a written plan on how to report and investigate suspected bullying.
In the end, if the program prevents some of the traumatic and sometimes tragic consequences of bullying, it will have been worth whatever it took to put into place.
Bad timing — Wind and fires were the suspected culprits behind several local power outages on Christmas Day.
A power outage at any time is inconvenient for the many people it can affect. But on Christmas, when so many families are spending quality time together or hosting large gatherings, it is particularly disruptive.
Altogether, thousands of homes were affected by power outages on Christmas, an unfortunate side-effect of the hard winds that swept through our area.
While the timing was terrible, things could easily have been much worse.
Unlike much of the South, we had no tornadoes, and our storms were damaging but not deadly.
There are always reasons to be thankful if we look hard enough.
A brisk business — While national companies reported a somewhat sluggish holiday shopping season, local retailers said this year was a good one for business.
"This was one of the busiest, definitely. I think people were just shopping. I didn't advertise any more than I normally would. It was actually less," said Brenda Felger, owner of Felger's Footwear on Martin Luther King Boulevard in Houma.
Anyone who was out shopping in the days leading up to Christmas can attest to the throngs at local shopping centers.
That is just anecdotal evidence, of course. But there did seem to be a robust shopping season under way locally. Let's hope all our businesses were able to benefit from our booming local economy.
A big improvement — Work should start some time in the coming year on a new government complex on La. 24 in Gray.
Eventually, the complex will include a new juvenile-detention center, an emergency-operations center and a Public Works facility.
The money to build the $15 million government installation will come from grant money and the parish government.
"After Hurricane Gustav decimated the parish, it became obvious that we needed to start planning to centralize some of our government facilities in an area outside the 100-year floodplain," said parish Manager Al Levron.
It will be a shining star for Terrebonne Parish, and a real improvement for the people who use the many services offered at the new complex.

Central Connecticut Director of Athletics Paul Schlickmann has announced the hiring of Laura Campbell as the new head women's lacrosse coach. Campbell will take the reins of a Blue Devil program that is coming off the most successful campaign in its 14-year history.
"I am excited to welcome Laura as the next leader of Blue Devil lacrosse," Schlickmann said on Thursday, August 22nd. "I am confident she is the right person to continue the upward trajectory of our program as we strive to be a consistent contender for the Northeast Conference title in the sport of women's lacrosse. Laura brings a wealth of Division I experience as a student-athlete and as a head coach and has a track record of success at every stop in her career. She has a clear passion for the sport and believes in the model we embrace for our student-athletes, building Champions on and off the field of play. Laura is a great fit for Central Athletics and our lacrosse program."
"I am honored to have been selected and accept the position of head women's lacrosse coach at Central Connecticut. I would like to thank Director of Athletics Paul Schlickmann and the entire Athletics Administration for allowing me this opportunity," Campbell said on Thursday morning. "Women's lacrosse is on the rise at CCSU and I am very excited to begin working with our student-athletes to continue the program's success on the field, in the classroom and in the community."
Campbell was the head coach at American University during the 2011 and 2012 seasons. While with the Eagles, she posted a 16-18 overall record and guided the team to a pair of Patriot League Tournament appearances. Her first season with American produced a 9-8 won-loss mark that tied for the best record in program history. That same season her team boasted the top grade point average among all Division I lacrosse programs.
Prior to American, Campbell was the head coach of the Marist Red Foxes for two seasons. Her Marist squads appeared in back-to-back Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference championship games, including a MAAC Championship victory in 2010 that earned the program's first ever berth into the NCAA Tournament. Over her two seasons, Campbell and the Red Foxes compiled a 22-13 won-loss record and set a program record with 12 wins in 2009.
Campbell most recently served as the head coach at Post University in Waterbury, CT. She spent one season helping the young Eagles program to several milestones. During the 2013 season, Post set program records for wins and road victories with Campbell's leadership.
Campbell has a career record of 38-31 as a Division I head coach and her teams have continuously reached postseason play. In addition, she has guided numerous student-athletes to individual accolades both athletically and academically.
A four-year starter for American University as a student-athlete, Campbell served as a team captain for two seasons. Her and her classmates set records for most wins in a season (9), which she tied as a coach, and wins by a class. She was also a member of the only Eagles team to reach the NCAA Tournament.
During her career she has coached or recruited 19 all-conference selections, one conference player of the year and placed more than 45 players on various academic award lists.
Campbell resides in Glastonbury with her husband John, and their three young children Grace, Addilyn and Reagan.

Researchers have unveiled what they believe is a hallmark study for breast cancer patients and the doctors who treat them. Their findings, published Sunday in the journal Nature and the New York Times, are expected to pave the way for new treatment options in the coming years.
The project, funded by a larger federal grant, focused on a genetic analysis of breast cancer, which kills more than 12,000 women in Pennsylvania each year. The scientists monitored the tumors of 825 breast cancer patients in the US. As a result, they found four distinctive types of breast cancer. Within those types, researchers say they identified at least 40 genetic alterations that might be attacked by drugs. Many of those drugs are already being developed for other types of cancers with the same mutations.
Researchers and patient advocates stress that it could still take years of research and clinical trials to incorporate the insights into new treatments. They say a wide variety of drugs will most likely need to be created and tailored to individual tumor types.
"This is a tremendous new development that will alter the way women with breast cancer are treated," said PBCC President and Founder Pat Halpin-Murphy. "Of course, this is the first step, but I believe it's the first step toward a cure for many types of breast cancer."
The four types identified in the study are basal-like cancers, luminal A and B cancers, and HER2-enriched cancers. From here, doctors and researchers are hoping clinical trials and dozens of separate drug studies will help to develop new breakthroughs in treatment from the findings. Dr. Elizabeth Stark, a breast cancer patient and biochemist at Pfizer, says she knows it will take time, but she's hopeful the research will lead to a cure. "In 10 years, it will be different," she said. "I know I will be here in 10 years."

The National Catholic Reporter has received a letter of support addressed to Catholic nuns, signed by 34 organizations representing Protestant women from New York to Austin, Texas. Cynthia Rigby, one supporter who helped gather signatures, said it was meant not as a petition, but as a theological letter.
"It was so important to us that this reflect a collective voice," said Rigby, a theology professor at Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, "because, theologically, we believe that communities of Christian believers, in this case communities of sisters in Christ, stand together."
Rigby, who said the initiative was started by the Advocacy Committee for Women's Concerns, and the signatures collected in about five days, said she hopes Catholic sisters will see it and feel encouraged.
The letter reads:

May 1, 2012
Dear Sisters,
We write to you as sisters in faith who may not express our vocation in the same particular community of faith, but who share much in common—as believers, as advocates, and as peacemakers. We write in a spirit of solidarity and as witnesses to the authenticity of your ministries, particularly the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, in a time when the integrity of your witness has been questioned by Catholic leadership.
While we are not all from the same particular Christian community, we, as women, share a common story. The struggle over women's authority is an age old question for Christians. Christian churches have long been ambivalent about us. Women's roles have been embraced in private, not public forums. Women leaders are affirmed as long as they are seen, but not heard (at least not too much). For centuries, women have been seen as prophets, dreamed new realities, but have been dismissed too often and affirmed only when their visions didn't contradict the beliefs held by those in positions of power. We are aware that even when churches will ordain us to serve in positions of leadership, we are often not trusted to identify the most urgent needs our congregations should address or to design the shape of our own ministries.
The plight of the powerless is familiar to the women of the church. We, however, do not believe that authorities in any church should take away women's power to determine for ourselves a vision for our ministries and vocations. Many, many women have raised similar questions as those raised by the Leadership Conference of Women Religious. Is it God's design for there to be an exclusively male priesthood? Are not economic justice and access to health care not only issues in greatest need of being addressed in our society today, but also concerns at the core of Catholic faith as well as the good news of the gospel message? What we see in this struggle is not a lack of our sisters' integrity and authentic witness to Christian faith, but a struggle that has been too familiar for all women of faith—a struggle over authority and who should have the power to define true faith.
Women in the churches have dedicated their lives to serving the needs of people in the world for centuries. Today, our Catholic sisters live in community and serve the church thoughtfully and creatively through countless acts of love, hospitality, and social advocacy. Our Catholic sisters are often strong advocates for people living in poverty, people who are in prison, people who lack access to affordable health care, people who are unable to access clean water, people who are sick, and people who have been victimized by the violence of others. Their service and advocacy is similar to that of so many of us who because of own experiences as women find it critical to place the needs of people who are impoverished, cast aside, and powerless at the focal point of our own ministries.
We have all been challenged by the wisdom of learned Catholic sisters who are scholars teaching in college, university, seminary, and church classrooms. Our sisters have taught us to engage our imaginations about the Christian tradition which we share. We are particularly thankful for the wisdom of Sister Elizabeth Johnson and Sister Joan Chittister. Our sisters have often carried the stories of many, many women and the wounds of the disenfranchised in their prayers and into their writing.
Religious women have long recognized the need to care for the whole human person. There are many faithful sisters who help us to remember the humanity of people who are shut away in prison or deemed untouchable. There are many faithful sisters who refuse to accept the legitimacy of an economic system that allows the few to become fabulously wealthy while the many remain submerged in perpetual want and poverty. Some of the names of our sisters who have become known for their advocacy are easily recognized—Sister Helen Prejean, Sister Jeannine Gramick, and Mother Teresa come to mind. We are also well aware that the names of many of our sisters in faith and members of Catholic communities of religious women are not etched in our memories. And, yet our sisters live authentic lives of faith and witness to our common belief that God is still creating a vision for a new heaven and a new earth.
Where would any of our churches be without women leaders? Where would the Catholic Church be without women's religious communities? How will the social witness of the larger church on issues of poverty and economic justice be hindered by not honoring the authority of these women of faith?
We join hands with you, our sisters. We are grateful for your willingness to take risks to engage in advocacy and peacemaking. We stand with you in solidarity and will continue to walk with you as witnesses to our common struggles and our common faith on this journey.

Also encouraging for Catholic nuns: a post last month from Patheos blogger Fred Clark, a Baptist, who says of the LCWR: "They're some of the smartest, toughest and holiest Christians I've ever had the privilege of meeting."

Words by Mr Jonathan Hey
After just two seasons of Fox's sitcom New Girl, Mr Max Greenfield has become something of a comedy icon. That's because his character, Schmidt, is such a ridiculous, over-the-top, self-important, loveable loser - a perfect foil to the wide-eyed optimism of his roommate Jess, played so indelibly by Ms Zooey Deschanel.
As Schmidt's popularity has risen, thanks, in part, to several viral videos Mr Greenfield made, including one of Schmidt's dating profile (his perfect match? Himself) and another where he teaches a spinning class to an empty room with the energy of a banshee, so has his red carpet quotient.
This year, after swooning over a certain designer in a guest-edited entry for Ms Gwyneth Paltrow's website, Goop (Ms Paltrow tweeted about how big a fan she was of his character), Mr Greenfield finally got his wish: the designer sent him a tuxedo to wear at the Golden Globes, where Mr Greenfield was nominated for his role on New Girl.
"I will never own a nicer piece of clothing in all of my life," says Mr Greenfield, who grew up in Westchester, New York, and now lives in Los Angeles with his wife, Ms Tess Sanchez, a casting director, and their daughter, Lilly. "You feel like a different man. That thing fits you in a way that you think - maybe I could kick some ass in this thing. Sometimes I just wear it around the house. I'm not proud of it, but every once in a while I'll just put it on and say, 'Honey, take a look at me in this thing.'"

A History of Native American Genocide by the New American Colonists
A History of Native American Genocide by the New American Colonists If history is known to be repetitive, then we as Americans must eagerly pursue lessons from the past for the advanced treatment of human rights and responsibilities. One of these lessons is the dehumanizing rivalry of a new America against the original Native America Archives, California State. Learn California.org . Web. n.d. 18 July 2012 < http://www.learncalifornia.org/doc.asp?id =1933> This is an article discussing the racial tensions and demeanor of the public during the Gold Rush era, particularly toward minorities. It describes other ethnicities that were being targeted along with the Native Americans. During the current gold rush trend the website looks at the steady decline of the lands, whole groups of people, and the treatment of minorities during those times. Looking at the nature of the fervor to push for wealth and prominence is what this article's message confirms. It was unchecked aggression that has us look back at what may be described as more savage than their enemy the Native American. There is more reason to suspect that with prejudice, there was more imagery relayed to the public of the brutal savagery of the Native Indians; those acts indeed became more the acts of war for trespass and survival, than the means for the Native to act out their aggressions on any unfounded claims. More, along the line of this article, is the nature of the unknown value to the Native Tribes, which became of extreme value to the New Colonist- The drive for gold and the possession of tracts of land, fencing, and roadways were being blasted for the purpose and advancement of wealth and industry. Capps, Benjamin et al. "The Great Chiefs." Ed. George Constable. Print. New York: Time Life Books, 1975. 15-43. This is one detailed account of the land of the Kiowas. Benjamin Capps a typical governing body many Indian tribes had to comply with, which wasn't the way modern day adventures and settlers had portrayed them. Capps also shows the nature of the original Native Tribes paralleling our human instinct to anguish, bitterness, and survival. Seeing the arrangements that many Tribes had to conform with was much like seeing settings of our own lives and rules. With the story of White Bear, we can visualize the Native American Indians as humans, with feeling and values. The Kiowas example of Native wars were more Endemic, which were more tribal rivalries of looting and pillaging that took place for necessity than, the way the Colonists were using all out massive retaliatory pursuit and destruction, relentlessly impacting the routine of the Indians. The public sometimes glamorized stories which became more repetitive and horrific, which made the ideals of the public more unfavorable to the Natives- dubbing them as savages. Taking this lesson to our hearts will tell us to look more further to our own nature as human, and the feeling of others, rather than parroting popular opinion. This story also excludes any arguable remarks, from the public point of view, as to many original Native American Indians' as being savage, unorganized, uncooperative, or sinister at best intentions. Danzinger, Edward Jr. "United States Indian Policy During the Late Nineteenth Century: Change and Continuity." Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center.Web. n.d. 18 July 2012
Edward Danzinger makes comments on the Indian policies enacted by government officials and remarks about the way that some corrupt officials were antagonizing the Indians' toward the fulfillment of the rising demands for promised bargains and arrangements. The article offers an explanation for expectations that were needed by both sides, where neither party was making any progress to resolve bitter issues.
Bureaucratic means and functions were being installed to support the Americanization of the Natives. Many Commissioners were hired to Indian Reservation post to perform normal rationing functions; but with the corruption of many of the operators, raids by rouge Indian Tribes that were still being driven north or killed, and less grazing lands and game that were fashioned to near extinction. It is noteworthy to conceive of more intense hostilities and prejudice that existed between the two warring parties. Commissioner of Affairs John Q. Smith's said the "civilization or the utter destruction of the Indians [as] inevitable." It is also noteworthy to look at the offer for involuntary servitude as being the only choice for the Natives. As Smith said, unless they are " taught, and taught very soon, to accept the necessities of their situation and being in earnest to provide for their own wants by labor in civilized pursuits. " If we look to this piece of History then this would be sort of a bully statement by the better standards we should seek to accomplish.
d'Errico, Peter. "Jeffery Amherst and the Smallpox Blankets." www.nativeweb.org Web. n.d. 22 July 2012
Author Peter d'Errico brings forth stunning evidence on his website, with original photographs of correspondence between Cornel Henry Bouquet to General [James] Amherst; and Amherst's response to George Crogan Deputy Agent of Indian Affairs between June –August 1763. The language within the letters- the idea of providing small pox ridden blankets, with the fluidity of the messages- the author is showing the growing intent and influence that perpetuated the Genocide of the Native American Indians.
Visualizing these letters are important. It is safe to assume the general growing attitude that will increase between a heavily backed, industrialized nation that would use any means for resistance to enemies. Because of war trends during the war of Independence- another war would take place between successive nations with the beginning of another new problem- the next rise of the two rivalries- The New America and the Native American Indians. The question of whether the Indians were actually inoculated by orders from General Amherst troops is still under debate. But at the time, there was reason to suspect that many early settlers and pioneers began to feel accustom to the idea of distancing the natives further out of prime locations. Knowing this also gives us a reflection against using any illogical means toward human destruction.
Drake, James D. "Native American Wars" The Oxford Companion to American Military History. John Whiteclay Chambers II, ed., Oxford University Press 1999. Print. Oxford Reference Online.
The Oxford Companion to American Military History gives great summary of many topics related to the timeline of the native Indians struggle by means of progress for the New United States. We can point to references, with the expansion of territories, the migration of early prospectors, and the convening of military strength to ultimately pursue control over the native population, this reference is a good source for locking in small summaries in history of the Native American Indian wars.
James Drake can only summarize the cause and effect of poignant places and events that were crucial to military warfare upon the Native Americans. These accounts can remind us of the intent for this Nation to satisfy and deliver the concept of progress without cause and effect. It also gives us a reflection of the reasoning for continuous bitter rivalry by scoping interest to the way of desire against nature. The Native American Indians were simply at their own place at the wrong time; and anywhere that progress led them, it was to their ultimate end. With this reference we can see more of an accounting of the gradual decline of the population of the natives.
Foundation, Hermitage The. The Hermitage Foundation-President Andrew Jackson. Web.n.d. 18 July 2012.
The Hermitage Foundation makes comments about the action of President Andrew Jackson's Indian problem. With much to be said for the protection of the American way of life, Jackson takes on the responsibility to fight opposition groups against his removal policies, which was to dispatch government relations with treaties towards the Indians removal from their normal way of life.
The attitude of the Native American Indians was growing toward debate upon their quick removal. This article serves the purpose in being reminded by how much influence can have to applying the power to make definitive and lasting changes. This site tells us corruption was above the knowledge of the President, and one must argue that there was a failure to the assimilation for Americanizing the Indians; and there was forethought to their extermination. The cause and affect must be considered by higher thinking logical debate, but when there was a new government that was facing changes as fast as the industry that was bringing about these changes, there would also be some advantages and liberty's taken; which was almost everything at the time, that can be worked out for the cause of this advancement.
Government Printing, United States office of. " Thirteenth Amendment" – Slavery and Involuntary Servitude" United States Government Printing office. Web. n.d. 22 July 2012 < http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/GPO-CONAN-1992/pdf/GPO-CONAN-1992-10-14.pdf>
This is a web site describing the definitions of the term "involuntary servitude" by the Office of Government Printing. It makes claims about the terms and scope of the Thirteenth Amendment with regard to slavery and involuntary servitude, as being an entitlement for all Americans. It also makes distinguishing remarks by what the terms of the Thirteenth Amendment would include.
It is important to learn of the term, once again of, "involuntary servitude." as not just act of brutal slavery. Some may also argue that this is an outdated law which restricted its use to the African American population and freedom for slaves. But this document makes clear a much wider scope of free liberties for all Americans: "And when racial discrimination herds men into ghettos and makes their ability to buy property turn on the color of their skin, then it too is a relic of slavery. At the very least, the freedom that Congress is empowered to secure under the Thirteenth Amendment includes the freedom to buy whatever a white man can buy, the right to live wherever a white man can live." Teaching these ideas now makes sense when we can include all human as ourselves, without any preclusions of race or gender. But at the same time the latter quote was being considered in congress, there was active aggression against the Native American Indians and there wasn't any mention of their civility being breached by these laws. We always have to take a look at similar circumstances for our times, and act according to higher humane standards.
Lewy, Guenter. "Were American Indians the Victims of Genocide?" George Mason's University History News Network.Web. n.d. 18 July 2012
Guenter Lewy argues in detail against calling the act of the New American Colonist "genocide", but refers to the ethnic cleansing as being an act of "good intentions." At the same time while offering some more details of acceptable practices of the times during the Colonist's and the Natives, Lewy insists, in summary, that it would serve no interest to society to re-live the tragic moments in Native American History.
Lewy fails to provide explanations or theories if he were to place himself in the situation of the vivid accounts that history has provided about the gradual decline of the Indian population. The author continues to compare the holocaust of the Jews as an act of Genocide; some scholars would make the argument about the occupation of Vietnam as an act of Genocide, but, his commentary still compares the population decline of the Native American Indian as a necessary means for the New America, and its interest. The interest of the colonist were leaving an indelible impression on the Native lands, yet knowing how there are opposing arguments on this informative review, there still remained the left over ideals of the Original Native American Indians being a less superior race by means of military aggression, and the ethnic cleansing and "Americanization" left them to their own cause and effect towards involuntary servitude to the New America, or total extinction. Knowing opposing viewpoint this article asserts very fluently, can help us steer people toward more humane reasoning.

POAT MiBAC – Ministry of Cultural Heritage

Network governance for heritage policies
General design of the project was finalised in order to reach a common definition as well as to develop agreements on regional scale in terms of worth and benefit for the cultural heritage.
The first step achieved an analytical study based on a catalog, rules and methods in order to define a landscape geographical context. Areas of interest for this application model had to be those constrained by regulations: coastal bands and mountains.
The previous step ended with the definition of certain thematic layer related to the identified areas.
We were engaged with the second step to meet the requirement of an effective WebGIS able to provide best practices useful to render thematic maps based on sustainable resources such as Open Source software. A further requisite was the need to merge these layers with the existing ones provided by an unknown GIS infrastructure of the relevant SITAP website. Then we discovered it was based on MapServer.
The last requirement was particularly unbalanced compared to the possibility to create an integration and to the wish to realize a new GIS platform compatible with OGC in terms of services offered.
The reasonable choice for us was to deploy the OpenGeo Suite in the Debian Linux box (virtualized) provided by MiBAC as described in our installation and configuration procedures here.
This approach basically covers the requirements in order to pick up layers from heterogeneous sources, however it allows more flexibility and interoperability with reference to new data stores to be added. Indeed, just a few clicks are required to come up with new stuff or remove those no longer suitable for future purposes. As a result, we just added three new GeoServer datastores:
- Connections to institutional services distributing several national cartographic layers available through OGC OWS (i.e. PCN Portal, Civil Protection SDI, IGM Portal)
- OGC WMS available from SITAP whose capabilities URL is http://sitap.beniculturali.it/cgi-bin/sitap/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetCapabilities
- Shapefiles resulting from the previous analysis step
The selected layers were loaded as basic layers together with Bing imagery into GeoExplorer and exported to a WebGIS application embedded as iFrame into the CMS as follows at this link.
Here below the final resulting mapping application:

NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA--Two members of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's track and field team have been honored by the Little East Conference.
Junior Krista Chauvin (Seekonk, MA/Seekonk HS/Stonehill) and junior Brett Croteau (Dighton, MA/Dighton-Rehoboth HS) were named LEC Field Athletes of the Week.
At last week's New England Division III Championships at Colby, Chauvin was first in the hammer with a throw of 188 feet, 10 inches. She broke the school record and currently ranks first in the nation in the hammer. Croteau was first in the javelin with a throw of 198 feet, seven inches, and currently ranks 14th nationally in that event.
"Krista turned in another outstanding performance," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Stave Gardiner. "She's really starting to feel more comfortable with more turns in her approach, which she has been working on throughout the season. She had a few throws during the competition that were around 180 feet, and now she has the top throw in the country by three feet. Brett has been a model of consistency throughout the year. He has competed with a lot of confidence, and he's looking forward to improving his position in the national rankings in the remaining meets."
The Corsairs will return to action this weekend at the Open New England Championships at Stonehill.

Grabbing someone's attention is not the same thing as getting someone to care — and you cannot force someone to care by manipulating them through a catchy headline.
In simple terms, ask yourself — can I distinguish between a headline from The New York Times and The Daily Mail without explicit context? An informed reader and writer can, and that's the point I'm trying to make.

Johansen enjoying breakout season with Blue Jacketsby Craig Merz
COLUMBUS -- There was a plenty of buzz surrounding Columbus Blue Jackets center Ryan Johansen following a 3-2 victory March 20 against the Montreal Canadiens.
Most people wanted to talk about the third-year player's first NHL fight when he squared off against Max Pacioretty early in the game and how Johansen would respond after wading into unknown territory.
The answer came with 3:01 left in regulation when he showed the skill and savvy that made him the No. 4 pick by the Blue Jackets in the 2010 NHL Draft.
Johansen took the puck off the stick of defenseman Jarred Tinordi a stride outside the blue line and streaked into the zone. With two Canadiens in pursuit, he made a sharp stop low in the right faceoff circle. He pulled the puck back to freeze the goaltender then fired past Carey Price to give the Blue Jackets a 3-2 victory.
"He's a unique combination of great high-end skills and soft hands," Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen said.
Though the goal might be considered the defining moment in the defining game of a breakout season for the 21-year-old Johansen, Columbus coach Todd Richards remembers something else about him that night in the Bell Centre.
"There was a play Jo made earlier in the game, first period, where he picked the puck up right in front of our bench, and chipped it off the boards and did a spin, then picked it up on the other side of the player," Richards said. "Then he went in, did a delay and hit David Savard for a great scoring chance.
"When you're able to watch a guy that size do that at that speed; not only mobility and agility, but there's also vision and strength and power, well, it was impressive."
But there was even more to Johansen's game that helped the Blue Jackets rebound from a home loss to the Carolina Hurricanes two days earlier. He won 18 of 22 faceoffs against the Canadiens, including six of nine in the defensive zone, and took seven shots in 17:49 of ice time.
"He dominated the circle," Richards said. "These are the things as a coach or a fan of the Blue Jackets that gets you really excited."
It's been a long time coming for a franchise known for first-round picks not panning out (see Gilbert Brule, Nikita Filatov, Alexandre Picard and Nikolai Zherdev) or traded before reaching their prime (Derick Brassard, John Moore, Rick Nash and Jakub Voracek).
The Blue Jackets have been patient but stern in developing Johansen. He debuted in the NHL on Oct. 7, 2011 against the Nashville Predators and scored his first goal two weeks later against the Detroit Red Wings. He had 21 points (nine goals, 12 assists) in 67 games his rookie season and was expected to be a major contributor for the 2012-13 season.
However, because of the lockout the Blue Jackets sent him to the Springfield Falcons of the American Hockey League to aid his development. When the NHL season resumed Johansen was recalled, but it wasn't long before he was sent down again, missing eight Blue Jackets games.
Johansen regained form and was recalled for the Blue Jackets' Stanley Cup Playoffs push that ended a point shy of the second postseason appearance in team history. He had five goals and seven assists and a minus-7 rating in 40 games. He was then returned to Springfield, but endured the embarrassment of being benched in the second round of the playoffs because of his uninspired play.
When asked this week if that was the low moment of his professional career, Johansen gave a wry grin and said, "Oh yeah."
Richards at that point considered if Johansen was headed toward being another Blue Jackets bust.
"You're waiting and wondering when is it going to sink in?" the coach said. "Is it going to click and would it ever happen, because I'm seen talented kids come through and it's never clicked for them. … There was some doubt."
Kekalainen prefers to think of Johansen's time in Springfield as a learning experience for a young player trying to find his way.
"When you go down to that level when you've played in the NHL, of course everybody's going to be playing hard against you," he said. "That's what he's got to expect now in the NHL every night."
Fast forward to the end of March, and Springfield is in the rear view mirror and fading fast from sight. On Tuesday, in what Blue Jackets president of hockey operations John Davidson called the most important game of the season, Johansen scored twice in a 4-2 win against Detroit to end a two-game losing streak.
Johansen's first goal was the first in 37 power-play tries for the Blue Jackets and put his abilities on display. He showed patience looking for a shooting lane. His hard shot resulted in a juicy rebound, and his quickness and deft touch enabled him to get to the puck and poke it past goalie Jimmy Howard.
The second goal into an empty net was Johansen's 29th of the season and puts him in position to become the third Columbus player to reach the 30-goal mark. Nash did it seven times with a high of 41 in 2003-04. Geoff Sanderson had 34 goals in 2002-03 and 30 in the Blue Jackets' inaugural 2000-01 season.
So what's the difference between Johansen the benchwarmer in Springfield and the one leading the Blue Jackets in scoring? He's matured mentally and physically.
"I try not to think too much about [Springfield] but it happened," Johansen said. "I wasn't playing to the best of my abilities. At the same time over the course of the summer and at the start of this season I kept telling myself, 'I can do it. I can be can that elite player and dominate games or be effective each and every night.'
"I'm still young. I just needed to learn how to be a pro. I've worked hard, but I wasn't doing those extra things to become a great player. This year I've been taking those strides and I'm becoming a good player in this League."
Johansen has grown in other ways. The Port Moody, British Columbia native carried 194 pounds on his wiry 6-foot-3 frame when he was drafted, but he's now listed at 223 and using the added weight and muscle to his advantage.
"He's strong on the puck, no doubt," Detroit defenseman Niklas Kronwall said. "It comes with experience too, how to put yourself in different situations and how you position your body, but the biggest thing is confidence and how he plays out there.
"It's amazing to watch his growth. It's pretty fun to watch these young guys come up and do so well. He's really taken his game to another level."
Johansen also has 25 assists and is plus-1. Kekalainen likes those numbers, but said his center's potential is untapped.
"With added quickness and strength he can get to another level," Kekalainen said. "With work off the ice and in the offseason he can get the physical part of the equation into place where now it's going to be easier for him to play 82 games at a consistent level that we expect."
Detroit center David Legwand knows all about expectations, having been the first pick of the expansion Nashville Predators in 1998. He sees a bright future for Johansen.
"He's big, skilled and can skate," Legwand. "He's going to play in this League for a long time. I know he had his ups and downs for a year or two. He's a guy who, when he has the puck, you know something's going to happen.
"As an opposing player playing against him, he's got a big, strong body. He can move and hold onto it down low. He's fun to watch."
Johansen is also becoming the go-to guy for the Blue Jackets. He's scored dazzling shootout goals to decide the outcome against the New York Rangers and Minnesota Wild this season, and is showing leadership qualities as well.
That's not surprising to St. Louis Blues coach Ken Hitchcock, who was fired by the Blue Jackets four months before Johansen was drafted, but was still on the payroll at the time.
"He was a player that was well coached in junior and he's been well coached [in Columbus] and you can see that age is not relevant," he said. "He's had probably year five or six of good coaching and he's been very receptive to it. Now you're seeing the evolution of a good player.
"You can trust him anywhere you put him so you can put him against top players. You can put him in scoring positions."
The Blue Jackets' marketing department has been looking for a "face" of the franchise since Nash was traded to the Rangers in July 2012, although Kekalainen doesn't believe in that strategy.
"The guys who lead us into winning territory will be the faces of the franchise," he said.
Yet on March 21, Johansen showed there was a changing of the guard when Nash returned to Nationwide Arena for the first time with the Rangers and received a mixed reception at the onset.
Early in the game, Nash tried a rush out of his own end and was promptly put on his rear by Johansen to the delight of the sellout crowd.
"He was trying to make some moves," Johansen said. "Obviously he was a target. Coming back to Columbus we wanted to make sure he didn't put on a show. I saw the chance to hit him. The crowd gave a good reaction. It got our team going a little bit too."
Then he flashed a smile that offset the tough guy image he was trying to project.
"He's still got the baby face a little bit," teammate Jared Boll said. "But it doesn't matter what his face looks like as long as he can put the puck in the net."

text: Eddy's Cuban soccer mission March 25, 200812:00AM PDT Previous Next This past off-season has been a busy and eventful time for experienced Vancouver Whitecaps striker Eduardo Sebrango. Like many of his Whitecaps teammates, the 34-year-old is involved in the coaching side of the game, with the forward currently in charge of the North Shore U-14 Metro Boys Selects. Yet, the goal-scorer has not limited his time to just aspiring young local soccer players. Last month, Sebrango accompanied his friend Andy Nera and members of the Ottawa-based Carlton University Ravens women's soccer team to his hometown of Sancti Spiritus, Cuba. The group spent the day conducting soccer clinics and having a friendly game between members of the local sport school's boys team. Part of the trip also included a large donation of soccer equipment from the Canadians to the local youngsters. The former Cuban international describes how February's trip to his hometown came about. "I went back home in December to see my family for Christmas, as it had been almost two years since I had seen them," Sebrango told whitecapsfc.com. "When I was there, I didn't realize how much the local kids needed soccer equipment. The sports school that the kids were attending was the same sports school that I attended, and they are comprised of the best players from my home province. Seeing that they were playing soccer in their bare feet, I felt I had to do something. I had been collecting soccer equipment for the last few years and I had been keeping all of it in Andy's store in Ottawa. As he is an Umbro representative in Eastern Canada, he also pitched in by getting 200 soccer balls, as well as donations from the Carlton women's players. When we arrived in Cuba, Carlton came and spent a day in my town and helped with the equipment donation, as I would not have been allowed by authorities to do it myself. In fact, I was actually surprised to get all the stuff through Cuban customs when we arrived because they would not normally allow people to bring that much stuff into the country." Sebrango hopes the late February trip back to his homeland is the first of many soccer-related charity missions that take place in the future. His next aim is to raise funds to buy much-needed soccer equipment for Cuban youngsters. "In Havana, there are stores like Adidas where, if you have the money, you can buy the same soccer equipment as I took down in donations," the striker revealed. "If you can raise a few thousand dollars, you would then be able to purchase that equipment in Cuba for local teams." With future trips to Cuba still in the planning stages, Sebrango's present focus is the 2008 season with Vancouver and preparations for the coming campaign. The striker has enjoyed the challenge of preseason training under the direction of new men's team head coach Teitur Thordarson. "It's been hard," he said. "My body has been completely sore from training so far, though I was expecting Teitur to demand a lot from us physically, knowing his experience of coaching in Europe. The players are still learning about him as a coach, but I feel we're going to be physically fitter than in previous years. Teitur has put lots of emphasis on fitness and playing with a high tempo, with an approach to play more directly, so it will be different than in previous seasons." Not only will the Whitecaps look different in 2008, but their season will have a different flavour to it as well. Thordarson's squad will have the chance to contest for the honour of being the top professional side in Canada when it plays USL First Division rivals Montreal Impact and Major League Soccer outfit Toronto FC in a three-club competition this summer. The men's team will also play a more balanced USL-1 regular season schedule, with the Whitecaps facing all ten league rivals three times. Sebrango believes Vancouver's rivals will likely be the teams to beat in 2008. "Seattle will always by there," he said. "They have a great group of players and their coach, Brian Schmetzer, has done a great job down there. With Seattle going into MLS in 2009, those players will be really focused to try and win a job in the new team next year. I think Montreal will also be tough, especially with the extended preseason training program that they've had. Portland had a great season last year, but they've put new turf into PGE Park, so that might act as a leveler from visiting teams. Last season, it was hard to go and play on the old surface in Portland, but with the new turf in place, they may have to change their system of play and the visiting teams may have a better chance to succeed there." Click here to view last month's Ottawa Citizen article on the Carlton women's team's Cuban soccer experience. The Whitecaps open the 2008 regular season at Swangard Stadium with an all-Canadian tilt versus the Montreal Impact on April 12. Season tickets are on sale now and start at $199. All season tickets include a bonus ticket to this year's international friendly. For more information, CLICK HERE or call the Whitecaps office at 604.669.WAVE (9283). Previous Next

Rocker Jack White has lashed out at the editors of music bible NME for twisting his comments about Lady Gaga's image in a recent magazine interview to look like an attack on the pop star's music.
The former White Stripes star insists his quotes have been misrepresented by numerous news outlets and have sparked a "tabloidesque drama" he is eager to end – fast.
White took to his website to admonish journalists who have attempted to set up an overblown feud between himself and Lady Gaga.
In the Esquire article, he was quoted as saying he felt Lady Gaga's image had "no meaning behind it," adding, "You can't sink your teeth into it. It's a sound bite. It's very of this age, because that's what people want."
In his statement, White explains, "I never said anything about her music, or questioned the authenticity of her songs in any way. I was in a conversation about the drawbacks of image for the sake of image, and that it is popular nowadays to not question an image in front of you, but only to label it as 'cool' or 'weird' quickly and dispose of it.
"I don't like my comments about Lady Gaga's presentation being changed into some sort of negative critique of her music. If you're going to try to cause drama, at least get the quotes right. I think journalists should also be held accountable for what they say.
"Especially publications like the NME, who put whatever words they feel like between two quotation marks and play it off as a quote. Maybe somebody with more lawyers can take them to task, but I'll just use the Internet and Twitter instead. I also think that kind of tabloid drama encourages artists to not express their opinions in the press, and instead give polite soundbites that don't stimulate thought about creativity and the consumption of art in its many guises."
He adds, "Peace to Lady Gaga and I fully congratulate and compliment her on her championing of gay rights issues and the momentum it's given to help create change."

At a quick glance, it may appear that all swimming pools are basically the same. However, this certainly is not the case. There are many different materials and methods by which pools are constructed. Concrete or gunite pools are considered the most permanent as opposed to pools constructed of other materials such as fiberglass, steel, aluminum or polymer walls with or without separate vinyl lines.
Why Choose Beattie Pools For Your Aquatic Therapy Pools Company?
In 1967 Aaron (our founder) became a member of the Master Pool Guild, deciding then that he wanted to focus on creating custom gunite pools that would truly last a lifetime. Keeping up with the family legacy, in 1981 David, the youngest child, started Artistic Pools with experience in the craft he had since the age of 10. In 1986, Aaron stepped aside and David and his wife Gail took over Beattie Master Pool and Spa. For over 50 years the Beattie family has been "relaxing Mid-Michigan one family at a time" and we look forward to making you one of those families.
We at Beattie Master Pool and Spa have provided over 57 years of experience in design, construction and service to Mid-Michigan and the surrounding areas. In this day and age, far too little emphasis is given to providing each customer with the knowledge and friendliness they deserve. At Beattie Master Pool and Spa our goal is to achieve just that and to make your life as relaxing as possible.

Australian and Korean B-boys will settle their differences by videoconference in a dance battle set to go off this Sunday. Australia's research-and-education broadband network, AARNet, will connect three large public screens in Melbourne, Perth and Seoul in a demonstration of technology bridging distant cultures.
The dance-off between the two nations will go down via real-time videoconferencing, connecting 65-square-meter LED screens in Federation Square, Melbourne, Northbridge Piazza, Perth and the Art Center Nabi in Seoul. The event is scheduled from 3 to 6 p.m. AEST.
The contest is part of a five-year project funded by the Australian Research Council and designed by the University of Melbourne, University of Western Australia and University of Sydney.
The project is in its third year, but Sunday's dance-off will be its "first big splash," AARNet project director, Doug Farmer, told Computerworld Australia. "This is the first time that large public screens have been linked in this way for public, real-time interaction."
Why dance? Farmer said the University of Melbourne "sees dance as a medium to facilitate that cross-cultural exchange that can transcend the language boundaries."
AARNet's goal is to enable true real-time interactions between the two countries. A similar dance event was tried last year using Skype, but video quality was lacking in both crispness and fluidity, Farmer said. "You really need sufficient bandwidth and stability to be able to throw this up on a large screen and still look good."
Each Australian location will connect into the Internet through the AARNet3 network. The Seoul screen will connect first into Korea's fibre network and then go to AARNet's point of presence in Singapore. AARnet will bridge the locations and manage what is shown on each screen.
The system is expected to relay 720p HD video at about 7Mbps, Farmer said. "The guys could push it higher, but for the requirement of these screens, [720p] was ideal." While the dance contest will happen across three screens, it "could equally have been done on four or six," he said.
"Because it's fast-moving dance content, it's important that lag times are at a minimum," he said. AARNet will use a point-of-presence in Singapore so the traffic "doesn't have to do a lap of the world to get to Korea."
A previous AARNet test showed how videoconferencing can bring industry professionals into the classroom.
Stay tuned next week for photos from the event.

Witt Hands Little Giants First Lossby Jocelyn Hopkinson '15 • November 9, 2013 Share:
Defense and special teams have propelled Wabash all year. Wittenberg ran for 145 yards on the defense and took advantage of 12 Little giant penalties en route to a 35-17 win and NCAC championship.
"We played awful in the first half — terrible on special teams," Coach Erik Raeburn said. "The penalties were ridiculous and when you play a good football team like that, you can't overcome mistakes and penalties."
The Little Giants would have won the conference championship with a win. Wabash had won the previous two confrontations. The disappointing loss, in front of a packed Little Giant Stadium crowd, left the team searching for answers.
"I think everyone was anticipating the magnitude of the game," CP Porter '12 said. "This was the game everyone was looking forward to. I think guys were prepared, I'm just not sure what happened."
A poor start muffing the kickoff seemingly set the tone. Wittenberg forced a quick three-and-out, and started with the ball on the Wabash 34 after a penalty on the punt. On the second play from scrimmage, Tigers running back Sean Gary rushed for the 25-yard score.
"They had great field position," Raeburn said. "They made plays on offense against our defense and built a nice lead, then we had to kind of abandon the run."
Wabash entered the contest averaging more than 200 yards rushing per game. The Little Giants managed just 57 yards Saturday on 31 carries.
Witt's Gary scored three times on 21 carries and gained 144 yards. The Little Giant defense struggled to corral the talented sophomore.
Wabash had problems moving the ball on its next two drives before Wittenberg quarterback Reed Florence fired a touchdown to Brendon Cunningham, 14-0. Cunningham caught 9 passes for 145 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Ian MacDougall '14 put the Little Giants on the scoreboard with a 43-yard field goal, but Gary and Florence scored touchdowns to take the 28-3 halftime lead.
"It's disappointing how we played," Raeburn said. "I didn't feel like it was our best effort by any stretch."
Wabash's defense blanked Wittenberg in the third quarter, and Grant Klembara scored on a 6-yard run, but the Little Giants would not get closer than 18 points.
Gary added his third touchdown in the fourth quarter before Drake Christen scored the first touchdown of his career with seconds remaining. He had 9 catches for 108 yards and the score.
Michael Putko completed 30-of-50 passes with a touchdown and a career-high 316 yards.
Cody Buresh and Nate Scola led Wabash in tackles with 9 each. Buresh also added a sack.
Wabash will travel to Greencastle, Ind. next Saturday to play DePauw in the Monon Bell Classic.

text: I will be having a large rummage/garage sale at my home in a couple of weeks and have a lot of quilting supplies to be selling. If you are going to a sale, what kind of prices would you expect to pay at a sale? I have been thinking of fabric 1/4 of retail, same with patterns and books. Most books and patterns have never been used. Is that still too much to ask, or do you think reasonable for a rummage/garage sale. I am getting my house ready to sell and having to do lots of cleaning out to downsize.
