Alright guvnor! Welcome to East Laandaan for a football match that is sure to offer up a tastier serving than jellied eels and mash. (Actually that sounds horrible. Do people really actually still eat that?)
Anyway, Liverpool can go back to the top of the Premier League table with a win against a Hammers team who have all but cleared themselves of relegation thanks to two wins from the last two.
To say they have nothing left to play for would be churlish but with so many teams below them still struggling for points they can certainly take things a bit easier.
Brendan Rodgers' men still have plenty to win and have the best chance to get that elusive top flight title since Alan Hansen was able to criticise his own defending.
Meanwhile Arsenal are battling it out with Everton for fourth spot and you can follow that game live here.
So stick with us for all the coverage from Upton Park in today's second big Premier League clasherino.
Team news will be upon us very soon folks, with Kevin Nolan expected to be selected for the Hammers despite suffering a back injury in Monday's win over Sunderland.
Meanwhile, here are the Liverpool players arriving at Upton Park, with a three from nine wave ratio to the fans. Poor.
VINE: The Liverpool players have arrived #COYI https://t.co/yZfKHe7Mdo— West Ham United FC (@whufc_official) April 6, 2014
The teams are in and here indeed they are.
Nolan does indeed make the Hammers starting lineup while Mamadou Sakho comes in for Daniel Agger in the Liverpool back line.
West Ham: Adrian, Reid, Nolan (c), Tomkins, Armero, Carroll, Taylor, Noble, Demel, Diame, Downing
Subs: Jaaskelainen, Jarvis, C.Cole, J.Cole, Potts, Johnson, Nocerino.
Liverpool: Mignolet, Johnson, Flanagan, Sakho, Skrtel, Gerrard, Henderson, Coutinho, Sterling, Suarez, Sturridge.
Subs: Jones, Toure, Cissokho, Lucas, Moses, Allen, Aspas
"You'll have a picture of me with a beard and hanging onto a rope for dear life" is not a phrase you want to hear from anyone, least of all Brendan Rodgers.
But that's how the man who has a giant portrait of himself in his own lounge described the Premier league title run in.
Rodgers was referring to the time he conquered Mount Kilimanjaro for charity and reckons the final ascent of the table will be similar.
A win against West Ham and that's another step towards planting that red flag at the summit.
What's Kevin Nolan laughing about here? The Everton Arsenal score?
VINE: The Hammers head out to warm up #COYI https://t.co/4WX9ZRuREv— West Ham United FC (@whufc_official) April 6, 2014
"There's less pressure on the players," says Sam Allardyce due to the plethora of other teams who are worse than West Ham below them in the table.
"It will still be tough for us," says Brendan Rodgers, who reveals Daniel Agger has a knee injury and Joe Allen was due to start but has a slight knock.
Managers, eh? Eh? *gestures over shoulder*
Nothing to do with today's game but this deserves an airing...
A Southampton fan chucks the parenting manual out the window after Rickie Lambert's goal at Man City.
Bet his wife is fyuuuuuuuming!
Top class parenting from this Southampton fan... http://t.co/zWNyltc19H— 3rd Eye (@3rdEyeNot) April 6, 2014
In all my years of coming to Upton Park, I've rarely known it so flat.
Not much atmosphere, still half full and in contrast to the normal vibrant, loud and passionate crowd that we're used to at West Ham.
What makes it all the more surprising is that Liverpool are so great to watch. They're brilliant going forward, entertaining and going for the title. Normally West Ham love upsetting the big boys.
One name springs out at me on the Liverpool team sheet. Mamadou Sakho. If there's a weak link...
And we're underway! Can Andy Carroll remind Liverpool why they spent £563m on him all those years ago with a goal today?
Right, a simple equation for Liverpool. Win this one, then the next five, and they are champions.
No pressure, chaps.
But while City and Chelsea kept up their sides of the bargain yesterday, Brendan Rodgers' men do not appear to be venturing into an East End bear-pit.
Remember all those years ago when an angry Fergie moaned that it was ''scandalous'' West Ham had dared to beat United and hand Leeds the title?
Suspect it was more hostile that night than it seems today. Very low-key.
Sakho for Agger at the back – presumably to counter Carroll, who has a point to prove.
Not sure, yet, what shape Rodgers will deploy. That will become clearer, soon. Armero and Reid come into the home defence. Game on.
It's all kicking off!
It's not really but the referee pulls Adrian and Jordan Henderson over after a scuffle at a corner.
The scuffle comes to nothing and the resulting corner comes to nothing but still...PWOPA NAWTY!!
Liverpool hit the bar!
That's the closest we've come to a goal so far here. Suarez does his trademark little shimmy thing and has a pop but it pings off the bar with Adrian beaten.
Still 0-0.
Suarez with a beautiful strike. So close! https://t.co/tSY1JasVjz— Football Vines (@FootballVines) April 6, 2014
So, so close. And yet another piece of Suarez brilliance.
The Uruguayan takes a short throw from the left, drifts inside Demel and dinks a beauty towards the top corner, Adrian beaten all-ends-up as it comes back off the bar.
Soon after, a Suarez-led break ends with a tame shot by Sterling but Liverpool will be fancying themselves here.
West Ham, though, are having a go. Bit one-dimensional, to be sure, but enough to lead the home fans out of their mood of slumber.
West Ham have their best chance of the game from a set piece (of course).
That 1950s east end gangster look a like Mark Noble curl a free kick over the wall but drags it too far to the left and Mignolet watches it sail wide.
Still 0-0 guv.
Stalemate at Upton Park but still plenty to enjoy, particularly a couple of sublime touches from Luis Suarez.
The Uruguayan's speed of thought and touch has bewildered West Ham's defenders several times, not just when he stepped past Demel and curled a chip on to the crossbar but also when he controlled a ball instantly on the edge of his own box and nicked it past Mark Noble in one movement.
He has scored 29 times in the league already this season and he is playing as though he will soon make it 30.
Debate raging in the press box whether West Ham are one dimensional or no dimensional.
In fairness, as someone who was here for the Manchester United game, I think West Ham are playing slightly better stuff.
Yes, they're prone to the odd "Lump it up to the big man" but generally they've played more football.
They're working hard at the back to shut down every inch of space and Tomkins, Noble and Demel are doing quite well.
Andy Carroll not quite having the effect on the game he'd have hoped, finding Skrtel and Sakho in fine form.
Fine form indeed.
So he's going down the Suarez routine instead...
Andy Carroll has a great dive for a big man.— Nooruddean (@BeardedGenius) April 6, 2014
Tomkins done for handball in the box from Suarez and Gerrard steps up...

Written for observant and non-observant Jews and anyone interested in religion, this remarkable book by the distinguished scholar David Gelernter seeks to answer the deceptively simple question: What is Judaism really about? Gelernter views Judaism as one of humanity's most profound and sublimely beautiful achievements. But because Judaism is a way of life rather than a formal system of thought, it has been difficult for anyone but a practising Jew to understand its unique intellectual and spiritual structure. Gelernter explores compelling questions, such as: How does Judaism's obsession with life on earth versus the world-to-come separate it fundamentally from Christianity and Islam? Why do Jews believe in God, and how can they after the Holocaust? What makes Classical Judaism the most important intellectual development in Western history? Why does Judaism teach that, in the course of the Jewish people's coming-of-age, God moved out of history and into the human mind, abandoning all power but the capacity to talk to each person from inside and thereby to influence events only indirectly? In discussing these and other questions, Gelernter seeks to lay out Jewish beliefs on four basic topics - the sanctity of everyday life; man and God; the meaning of sexuality and family; good, evil, and the nature of God's justice in a cruel world - and to convey a profound and stirring sense of what it means to be Jewish.
David Gelernter is professor of computer science at Yale University and contributing editor at the Weekly Standard. He is the author of several books, including Mirror Worlds, The Muse in the Machine, and the novel 1939. His writings on Judaism have appeared in Commentary and elsewhere.
?Out of the uncommonly learnŠd and richly imagining mind of David Gelernter comes what we may be tempted to name a new Psalter; or call it instead a Song of Songs for the contemporary temperament. Yet secreted in the sinews of these seductive images is a grounded robustness of Idea. The opening chapter alone, on Separation, reveals the essential engine of human intellect: how we think. Gelernter may well be capable of sending the most adamant secularist flying to the synagogue ? or, if not that, then to a principled reevaluation of the mental universe we all inhabit.??Cynthia Ozick, author of Dictation: A Quartet
?This book not only argues its thesis, but also enacts it. Gelernter?s prose is at once plain in its patient unraveling of knotty problems and rhapsodic in its celebration of what it knows it cannot present. Judaism: A Way of Being is a powerful answer to anyone who has ever wondered how the spiritual life can be sustained in the face of all that conspires to kill it.??Stanley Fish, author of Save the World On Your Own Time
?In an exhilarating work possessing the force and grace of a mighty poem, Gelernter shows us Judaism not only as a body of beliefs, but as a way of seeing and being in the world.??Wilfred McClay, University of Tennessee
?As David Gelernter's shabbos goy, I heartily endorse this book; he is my rabbi and always will be. An Old Testament prophet with the vision to see tomorrow, Gelernter's book will be one for the ages?writing about the depth of yesteryear with an eye toward generations to come. Anyone who wants to know more about Judaism (Jews and non-Jews, alike) should read Judaism: A Way of Being, as they should read anything Gelernter writes. His audience, his congregation, is always enriched and ennobled by him.? ?William J. Bennett, The Claremont Institute
?David Gelernter is a sensitive and masterfully evocative writer whose approach yields a fascinating new understanding of themes and ideas long embedded in Judaism. For writing in a way that is both true to subjective experience and compelling for Jews of the 21st century, he deserves our gratitude.?Rabbi Norman Lamm, Chancellor, Yeshiva University
"One of the most original interpretations of Judaism that I have ever read. Rich with insights for Christians trying to recover their own roots in Judaism and define their own "way of being." Gelernter is especially good at showing how Judaism and Christianity go on nourishing each other, despite the vivid parting of their ways. His brief closing reflections on God, on the supreme intellectual importance of Judaism to western civilization, and on the different angles of Jewish and Christian ethics are worth the price of the book."?Michael Novak, author of On Two Wings and No One Sees God
"Judaism is a visual tour of Jewish life, and attempt to conjure "the grand scheme" of the Jewish religion. It is perhaps Gelernter's most ambitious work to date. . . .[The] book is a deeply lyrical, even sensual, accounting of Gelernter's own faith."?Evan R. Goldstein, The Chronicle Review
"Spectacular . . . . [Gelernter] has written a book that, in its exploration of Judaism, tells us something?tells us a lot?about the human condition."?William Kristol, The Weekly Standard (Guide for the Discerning Gift-Giver)
"At the core of personal trauma there is often a loss of faith in life?s order and stability. When faced with a crisis, some people turn to religion. Others turn to artistic expression. David Gelernter turned to both, and his new book . . . displays a unique entwining of the two."?Juliana Ochs, Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly (PBS.org)
Finalist for the 2009 Book of the Year Award, presented by ForeWord magazine
Selected for the Guide for the Discerning Gift-Giver, William Kristol, The Weekly Standard
"The Jewish experience, as Gelernter shows, echoes profoundly across the wider experience of humanity. Judaism itself is a wide-ranging book about the beliefs, practices and philosophy of the world's first monotheistic religion--a book that Jews and non-Jews alike will find well worth reading."—Jay Lefkowitz, Wall Street Journal
"[Gelernter] occupies a unique spot in American intellectual life, at the intersection of technology, art, politics, and religion. . . . Judaism is a visual tour of Jewish life, an attempt to conjure 'the grand scheme' of the Jewish religion. It is perhaps Gelernter's most ambitious work to date."—Evan Goldstein, The Chronicle Review
"Though written for Jews unsatisfied by 'usual approaches' to Judaism, the book may fascinate non-Jews interested in its questions, too, regardless of whether they agree with Gelernter's conclusions."—Booklist
"Exceptional . . . unlike anything that's been done since the likes of Abraham Joshua Heschel and Mordecai Kaplan. . . . Gelernter's brilliant book . . . [is] never less than clear and stirring, and should be read by all those who have the slightest interest in Judaism and its many layers of meaning and beauty."—Robert Leiter, Jewish Exponent
"In this brief but intellectually packed book, Gelernter attempts to present Judaism as a total structure, to begin a Torat ha-lev, the Torah of the mind and heart that can lead to understanding the pressing questions of human existence. . . . Challenging, often exhilarating, richly learned, intensely personal, and tough-minded, Judaism offers a passionate picture of Judaism."—Maron L. Waxman, Jewish Book World
"Gelernter's little volume offers a window into the living core of Jewish life. . . . What emerges vividly from Gelernter's picture are the nuances, the small but definitive acts of devotion, that together make up the sum of religious Jewish life."—Gil Student, First Things
"Superb."—David Brooks, The New York Times
"Gelernter creates a visual allusion for much of Judaism. . . . Gelernter's paintings . . . are prayer as they are made and as the viewer sees them. . . . As each section presents seamlessly layered images, the entire book, including the illustrations, is a seamless whole."—Ben Schachter, Religion and the Arts

Barbara McNichol has written Word Trippers, a short book that will help you distinguish between lie and lay, less and fewer, affect and effect, and more. Watch her brief promotional video (below), then head over to her site for more information. I, who am pretty good at such distinctions, get a lot out of Barbara's book every time I dip into it.
Word Trippers
To Write A Good Book, Answer These 3 Questions
1. What is the question my book answers?
2. Who cares? Who is seeking the answer to this question?
3. Where do I find that caring audience?
Next, you must know who cares about that question. Where is the hungry crowd who is going to be fed by your book? What do you know about them? Are they young? Old? Predominantly male? Female? Young adults? Spanish speakers? What language will they feel comfortable with? You might build a "persona," a description of your ideal reader that covers age, gender, socio-economic considerations, education, and so on. Give that persona a name. Cut out a magazine picture that represents them, so that you can keep them in mind as you write.
Finally, you have to know how to reach those people who are going to be very interested in the answers you provide to the question you posed. Do they read particular blogs? Do they use particular search terms? Do they belong to professional associations? If you know where they gather, you will be able to let them know about your book.
Answering these questions is not optional, if you want to have a successful book. It is a prerequisite. And if you can't answer the questions, get help. Discuss them with your friends, your colleagues, your coaches. Post a query on Quora.com; crowdsource your answers.
Do not start writing until you can answer these questions!
Note-taking for the writer
I'm listening to author Amy Tan being interviewed on City Arts and Lectures, on NPR. The wonderful interviewer–I missed his name–asked, "Why do you write?" To my surprise, she said she discovered that writing has enabled her to explore her life purpose.
One kind of writing is note-taking–jotting things down as they happen, whether event descriptions or thoughts and ideas. (I wrote this in NotePower, a blog I've stopped keeping about notes.) One kind of note-taking is called "journaling," or keeping a diary. People do this for a variety of reasons–to remember what happened to them; because they want to write; to work out feelings; and more. The International Association of Journal Writers (iajw.org) notes,
At its best, journaling is a fluid cycle where your writing flows and you reap the harvest of self-awareness,clarity, and serenity.
Your writing and life feed each other.
You feel good writing, writing often, and in your own voice.
You enjoy authentically expressing yourself and you learn more as you write more.
You make better sense of your life and how to move forward in the right direction.
The features you want in a journal overlap those of a comprehensive note-taking system, but I find there is a focus on timed entries, on keeping track, on categorizing, on searching, and on prompts for creative writing. I haven't done a comprehensive survey, but here are a few I've tried:
- 750words.com. The focus is on writing 750 words a day. There are some cute analytical tools to report to you your moods, your focus, and more–and of course, a running word counter. You also get badges for achieving 750 words a day over stretches of time. Very simple interface.
- Penzu.com. Beautiful skeuomorphic (fancy word that means "looks like the real thing") design. Nice iPad and iPhone apps. Great feel; limited features–for instance, no search. But good formatting, at least on the Mac. (Formatting limited on iOS devices, due to iOS.)
- LifeJournal.com. They've had a Windows product for years, and recently released a web version–which looks, sadly, very much like a Windows product. But it seems to be the most feature-rich of the journals I've looked at. Very rich editing; nice ways to categorize journals; recordings of "wisdom" from experienced journalers; prompts; quotations; and more.
All of these are free or low in cost.
I've found the reflection that journaling affords me to be invaluable. When I don't journal, I feel lost. I record dreams, conversations, discoveries, moments of gratitude, sadness, encouragement, encounters, and more. The stuff of life. And having kept journals fairly regularly for decades, I enjoy reviewing them, remembering what went on in my life over the years. It gives me a sense of continuity. I journaled, therefore I was…
Give it a shot. You might enjoy it.
Association of Independent Authors
It's not very large, but I suspect it's going to grow. For now, it is free to join as an Associate; there are also paid memberships, that offer more benefits. You don't have to be published; you simply decide that you are
an independent author, one who believes in self-publishing.
Why bother? It's another place to promote yourself and your books, and provide you with incoming links to your website. The value of these is high, although the AIA site has low page rank at present; it is very relevant to authors, and Google cares about that. And as a non-profit, I believe its rank will rise quickly.
There's a good Resources tab, which has a long list of editors, printers, graphic designers, and more. It seems to be a paid directory, and I don't think you need to be a member to access it. I've joined. Click here or on the logo to check it out.
My Kindle book is $.99 for the next six days
My publisher is participating in an Amazon campaign that puts my Kindle book at a discounted price for the next six days. You can check it out by clicking here.
Actually, here's a secret: If you are determined to write a good non-fiction book, you can do it without reading my book! Just remember: Structure precedes content. Create an outline of your book, all the way to the sub-chapter level. Work on it until you are pretty happy with it; don't get bound up in perfectionism. Then write the book, one sub-chapter at a time–and do your best not to fiddle with the structure while you are writing.
Finally, find a decent editor to edit it.
That's it! Of course, for a tiny investment, you can get the benefit of a bunch of tips and tricks I've developed in the course of writing a dozen books and interviewing a bunch of prolific and successful authors. Again, click here to check it out.
Writing tools: Scrivener
Most aspiring (and actual) writers use Word. It's got a lot of power–and a lot of complexity, much of which is irrelevant to the writer. But it is terrible at organization. It requires you to fall back upon the folder structure of your computer's operating system.
For some projects, this won't matter. But if you are writing a book, whether fiction or non-fiction, it does matter. Books have layers of structure that are not always easy to represent within a strict hierarchical file arrangement.
Enter Scrivener. It is a writing environment. If you don't look too closely at Scrivener, it might appear to be nothing more than yet another word processor. But it is much more than that. It is an environment that preserves all of the pieces of what you're attempting, in a way that makes sense to you. And when you're done, you tell it to compile what you've done and output it in the format that you need, and it complies.
A lot has been written in praise and explication of this inexpensive ($40 or so) and powerful tool (see here, here, and here, for example). The manual is well-written.
The best way to see if this powerful tool suits you is to download the 30-day free trial from here. Play with it, and you'll discover why this is not your father's word processor. Available for both Mac and Windows.
What writers should read
"Maria Popova" sounds like a pseudonym, but it isn't. It is the name of a buzz curator, a zeitgeist surfer, with an astonishing breadth and depth of interest. No matter what you are writing about, you should sign up for the BrainPickings.org newsletter, and at least scan the headlines once a week. Why? Well, we live in a bitstorm, and the stuff is coming at us so fast and thick that there is no way to absorb it unfiltered. And where is a trustworthy filter? I don't think it's my Facebook stream, my Twitter feed, or even LinkedIn. G+ is way too cluttered. Where to turn? There is good stuff coming over the interwebs, but it is not clearly labeled. On BrainPickings.org, you can find a lot–more than I can handle, still–and it is clearly labeled. In a book review, Popova explains a bit:
"The present education system is the trampling of the herd," legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright lamented in 1956. Half a century later, I started Brain Pickings in large part out of frustration and disappointment with my trampling experience of our culturally fetishized "Ivy League education." I found myself intellectually and creatively unstimulated by the industrialized model of the large lecture hall, the PowerPoint presentations, the standardized tests assessing my rote memorization of facts rather than my ability to transmute that factual knowledge into a pattern-recognition mechanism that connects different disciplines to cultivate wisdom about how the world works and a moral lens on how it shouldwork. So Brain Pickings became the record of my alternative learning, of that cross-disciplinary curiosity that took me from art to psychology to history to science, by way of the myriad pieces of knowledge I discovered — and connected — on my own. I didn't live up to the entrepreneurial ideal of the college drop-out and begrudgingly graduated "with honors," but refused to go to my own graduation and decided never to go back to school. Years later, I've learned more in the course of writing and researching the thousands of articles to date than in all the years of my formal education combined.
So, in 2012, when I found out that writer Kio Stark was crowdfunding a book that would serve as a manifesto for learning outside formal education, I eagerly chipped in. Now, Don't Go Back to School: A Handbook for Learning Anything is out and is everything I could've wished for when I was in college, an essential piece of cultural literacy, at once tantalizing and practically grounded assurance that success doesn't lie at the end of a single highway but is sprinkled along a thousand alternative paths.
Go subscribe. Reading Brain Pickings will improve your writing. Enjoy!
Gabriele Rico, inventor of clustering
I'm writing an ebook about clustering; it will be out soon, and I'll post it here. So I thought I'd check on Gabriele Rico, whose "Writing the Natural Way" was my introduction to clustering. I still recommend the book to anyone thinking about writing; it is marvelous. Clustering changed my life–it's a powerful practice.
Googling her name, I was surprised to find the first entry was an obituary. She passed away in March, after battling cancer for some time. She was 75.
Not only is this book of hers worth reading and keeping for rereading, her blog is full of gentle and joyful writing wisdom. I know you will enjoy it.
I am sad. When I moved here, to Mountain View, CA, in 2006, one of the things I thought was, "Gabriele Rico lives near here, in Cupertino. Perhaps I can meet her." But I never did.
If there is something you've been putting off, maybe it's time to do it.
Tom Clancy, 66
Tom Clancy was 66 when he passed away a couple of days ago. I am 66. I had spent time with him some years ago, when we were both on the board of directors of a software company in North Carolina called Virtus. That company spun out Red Storm Entertainment, named for "Red Storm Rising," a Clancy best-seller. It published games based on Tom's books–and later, books by Michael Creighton.
After Tom bought a stake in the Orioles, the board met in his Baltimore place, then went to Camden Yards to watch a game from the owner's box. I don't even recall who they were playing, so dazzled I was.
I remember Tom as quiet, thoughtful, a bit withdrawn. Perhaps that was the result of his fame by then.
Good to have known you, Tom. May your family find comfort.
Social media: How Guy K keeps up
Guy says on LinkedIn: Many people ask me how I manage my social media accounts (and others make stuff up rather than figure out what I do). Here are the gory, inside-story details. Perhaps you may find some of my methods useful to help you get the most out of social media, too. I wrote this article for my friends at Hubspot in May, this is the June 2013 update.

Matsumae Kimitaka, a musician/songwriter who has been issuing recordings as part of other Japanese experimental bands since the '80s, leads the lounge outfit Space Ponch. Kimitaka formed the avant-garde/noise group Mimi Kara Kaichu while still attending Chiba University in Japan, which led to the formation of other outfits, including Kidorikko, Hi Posi, and Expo, the latter of which issued their debut album Expo No Bankoku Daisenryaku in 1987. In 1994, Kimitaka issued his solo debut, Space Ranch, and two years later released the soundtrack album Kileak the Blood, Soundtracks & Remix for Sony Music. Since the '80s, Kimitaka had been trying to get an album issued by Space Ponch, but it wasn't until 1999 that the album saw the light of day, titled The World Shopping with Space Ponch. In addition to fronting his own bands and solo work, Kimitaka has contributed tracks for both a Telex remix album and a Kraftwerk tribute release. ~ Greg Prato

How about pay? How about 13 to 15 an hour for people with graduate degrees? Adjuncts at real colleges make more. Most of the medical instructors are lucky to have finished a certificate program, much less have anything more than an associates degree. There are a handful of good employees working in the building most of whom are in the Education department under the only good salaried employee, the DOE. The student services is a joke. No businesses will hire graduates from the school, much less students. The student body has shrunk over the past 2 years, mainly under Bennett's watch and that's no surprise to anyone who works there either.
Bottom line: avoid this place like AIDS.

So potential students, how do you feel about your school being run by someone who doesn't even have a bachelor's degree, not even one she can buy (like Bennett did) from Strayer or Phoenix? Comforting knowing that the place you pay all that money too is so riddled with incompetence and corruption, isn't it?

|Blair in a Pickle
|"Make Price Gouging Illegal"
by Christopher Chantrill
April 27, 2006 at 11:42 am
JANE JACOBS was a writer celebrated both by liberals and conservatives. She died April 25 in Toronto, aged 89. In her celebrated Death and Life of Great American Cities she punctured the confident movement of urban renewal that was bulldozing entire urban neighborhoods to cure urban blight. Liberals liked her because she bashed the rich. Conservatives liked her because she championed the old and the traditional.
She also belonged to that extraordinary time around 1960 when a clutch of major non-fiction books were published to universal reception: Death and Life of American Cities, Silent Spring, The Other America, The Feminine Mystique, Growing Up Absurd, The Affluent Society, and Unsafe at Any Speed.
In the New York Times Douglas Martin speaks of her four recommendations for city environment:
"Death and Life" made four basic recommendations for creating municipal diversity: 1. A street or district must serve several primary functions. 2. Blocks must be short. 3. Buildings must vary in age, condition and use. 4. Population must be dense.
In NRO conservative G. Tracy Mehan claims Jacobs for conservatives.
Flourishing city diversity, of the kind that is catalyzed by the combination of mixed primary uses, frequent streets, mixture of building ages and overheads, and dense concentration of users, does not carry with it the disadvantages of diversity conventionally assumed by planning pseudoscience.
Mehan claims Jacobs as a Burkean. But you could also categorize her as a rebellious libertarian.
"City air still makes free the runaways from company towns, from plantations, from factory-farms, from subsistence farms, from migrant picker routes, from mining villages, from one-class suburbs," wrote Jacobs.
We can hardly say that she succeeded in stopping the elite passion for remaking cities in its own highly educated and highly evolved image. Urban Renewal was replaced by New Urbanism and now Smart Growth. The theme is constantbulldozing people around to suit the aesthetic preferences of the educated elite.
But there is a curious contradiction in Jacobs womanly celebration of the vibrant city. The single-purpose suburb, against which she rails, was created by women. They wanted to get away from the danger and the bustle of the city so they could raise their families in peace and quiet.|
Christopher Chantrill blogs at www.roadtothemiddleclass.com. His Road to the Middle Class is forthcoming.
[The Axial Age] highlights the conception of a responsible self... [that] promise[s] man for the first time that he can understand the fundamental structure of reality and through salvation participate actively in it.

[To make] of each individual member of the army a soldier who, in character, capability, and knowledge, is self-reliant, self-confident, dedicated, and joyful in taking responsibility [verantwortungsfreudig] as a man and a soldier. — Gen. Hans von Seeckt

Civil Societya complex welter of intermediate institutions, including businesses, voluntary associations, educational institutions, clubs, unions, media, charities, and churchesbuilds, in turn, on the family, the primary instrument by which people are socialized into their culture and given the skills that allow them to live in broader society and through which the values and knowledge of that society are transmitted across the generations.
Francis Fukuyama, Trust
[W]hen I asked a liberal longtime editor I know with a mainstream [publishing] house for a candid, shorthand version of the assumptions she and her colleagues make about conservatives, she didn't hesitate. Racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-choice fascists, she offered, smiling but meaning it.
Harry Stein, I Can't Believe I'm Sitting Next to a Republican
[T]he Liberal, and still more the subspecies Radical... more than any other in these latter days seems under the impression that so long as he has a good end in view he is warranted in exercising over men all the coercion he is able[.]
Herbert Spencer, The Man Versus the State
These emerge out of long-standing moral notions of freedom, benevolence, and the affirmation of ordinary life... I have been sketching a schematic map... [of] the moral sources [of these notions]... the original theistic grounding for these standards... a naturalism of disengaged reason, which in our day takes scientistic forms, and a third family of views which finds its sources in Romantic expressivism, or in one of the modernist successor visions.
Charles Taylor, Sources of the Self
Families helped each other putting up homes and barns. Together, they built churches, schools, and common civic buildings. They collaborated to build roads and bridges. They took pride in being free persons, independent, and self-reliant; but the texture of their lives was cooperative and fraternal.
Michael Novak, The Spirit of Democratic Capitalism
For [the left] there is only the state and the individual, nothing in between. No family to rely on, no friend to depend on, no community to call on. No neighbourhood to grow in, no faith to share in, no charities to work in. No-one but the Minister, nowhere but Whitehall, no such thing as society - just them, and their laws, and their rules, and their arrogance.
David Cameron, Conference Speech 2008
As far as the Catholic Church is concerned, the principal focus of her interventions in the public arena is the protection and promotion of the dignity of the person, and she is thereby consciously drawing particular attention to principles which are not negotiable...
[1.] protection of life in all its stages, from the first moment of conception until natural death; [2.] recognition and promotion of the natural structure of the family... [3.] the protection of the right of parents to educate their children.
Pope Benedict XVI, Speech to European Peoples Party, 2006
No lesson seems to be so deeply inculcated by the experience of life as that you should never trust experts. If you believe doctors, nothing is wholesome: if you believe the theologians, nothing is innocent: if you believe the soldiers, nothing is safe. They all require their strong wine diluted by a very large admixture of insipid common sense.
Lord Salisbury, Letter to Lord Lytton
What distinguishes true Conservatism from the rest, and from the Blair project, is the belief in more personal freedom and more market freedom, along with less state intervention... The true Third Way is the Holy Grail of Tory politics today - compassion and community without compulsion.
Minette Marrin, The Daily Telegraph
In England there were always two sharply opposed middle classes, the academic middle class and the commercial middle class. In the nineteenth century, the academic middle class won the battle for power and status... Then came the triumph of Margaret Thatcher... The academics lost their power and prestige and... have been gloomy ever since.

I called Tom back again and he replied again that he will ship out the correct helmet and to go ahead and keep the one that I had received. I have been waiting ever since for the windshield and to which I have emailed and called about but no solutions or just plain ignored. I even have emails from Tom that the windshield had been shipped but no tracking numbers and since then the company has been sold and haven't heard from them even after continued calling and emails. Over all I paid $1680.00 for a $1499.00 scooter and no helmet or windshield.

For > example you've made changes to libdevmapper-event.c, which being a > library is presumably amenable to being unit tested? Hmh. I am not entirely convinced that libdevmapper-event, of all the libraries we have, is the right unit testing candidate (at least at the moment)... Virtually all the API functionality of the library talks to dmeventd behind the scenes, and if it is not running, runs it. There would be some options to unit test this, but we would need a private dmeventd instance, since I would be quite uncomfortable with unit tests talking to a system dmeventd. This needs some parametrisation of the existing code, and additions to dmeventd command-line options (like, where to put the communication FIFOs). I can tack that onto my TODO, although it may be better to start with unit testing elsewhere. I believe that the recent improvements in dmeventd coverage in the functional suite are quite adequate. Of course, we could do better, but there's also still room for improvement in the functional suite, regarding dmeventd -- probably also easier to achieve than with unit tests. Yours, Petr.

Resistance of three immortalized human hepatocyte cell lines to acetaminophen and N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine toxicity.
J Hepatol
, 31
pp. 841-851.
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Acetaminophen toxicity in hepatocytes is attributed to generation of the toxic metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine, leading to depletion of intracellular glutathione, alteration of redox potential and ultimately, cellular necrosis. We aimed to determine the effect of acetaminophen and N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine on three human hepatocyte cell lines HH25, HH29 and HHY41, and for comparison, on primary rat hepatocytes, a cell type that is relatively resistant to acetaminophen-induced toxicity. METHODS: We investigated the effect of incubation of rat hepatocytes and 3 hepatocyte cell lines with acetaminophen or N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine on LDH release, glutathione status, mitochondrial function, CYP1A activity, albumin synthesis and DNA content. RESULTS: We demonstrated that HH25, HH29 and HHY41 are resistant to the toxic effects of acetaminophen under conditions that induce cytotoxicity in rat primary hepatocytes, as indicated by maintenance of glutathione levels and basal LDH release. Incubation with N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine caused a dose-dependent cytotoxicity in rat hepatocytes. Under comparable conditions N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine had no effect on any of the hepatocyte cell lines. Nevertheless, when culturing the cells for a further 48 h, a decrease in glutathione levels, albumin synthesis, CYP1A activity, DNA content and mitochondrial function was apparent. CONCLUSION: HH25, HH29 and HHY41 cells are highly resistant to acetaminophen and N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine-induced toxicity. They tolerate a much higher concentration of both toxins for a longer period of time compared to rat primary hepatocytes. These results are of relevance in the use of these cell lines to investigate acetaminophen hepatotoxicity, and may be of importance in the choice of cells for use in bioartificial liver support systems.

- Monica Cohen, ACE Counselor
- Kathleen Dillon, ACE Counselor
- Riza Belen, Program Coordinator
Part-Time Staff:
Full-Time Staff:
Roy Saldaña, Jr.
ACE Project Director
As the Project Director, Roy is tasked with the coordinating of support services and program components, overall project administration, collaborating with other university student support units, staff supervision, budget administration, and project evaluation.
Roy earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Humanistic Studies with a Spanish minor from the University of Wisconsin – Green Bay. After several years in the workforce, he enrolled in Graduate School and eventually earned a Master of Science degree in Library and Information Science with a specialization in Community Informatics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. As an undergrad, Roy changed his major 4 times. During the process, he learned that creativity in developing one's career development path from the first day of freshmen year is critically important!
As his first opportunity of professional employment, he worked for the School District of Howard-Suamico for 1.5 years providing support services to English as a Second Language and American Indian students grades K-12. For the next four years, he was employed by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign as an Assistant to the Director/Counselor in the Office of Minority Student Affairs. Annually, he advised a cohort of TRiO/Student Support Services' students, coordinated campus events including career fairs, graduation ceremonies, a scholastic awards banquet, the national TRiO/McNair Scholar's Graduate School Fair, and was a member of a variety of campus committees. Prior to joining Loyola University Chicago, he was the Director of The TRIO/Educational Opportunity Center for The City Colleges of Chicago where he assisted first-generation and/or lower-income adult Chicago residents nineteen years of age or older seeking to enhance their literacy skills, educational credential attainment, and career opportunities.
Roy is a huge fan of music collecting and attending concerts. He has never discarded a cd, cassette, or record despite changing music format trends. His book shelves are a detailed library of music including soul, 80s pop, and 90s Euro dance. He loves attending concerts of one-hit-wonder artists, 80s-90s bands that no one remembers, and legendary performers who saw their heyday well before he was born. You'll likely find him at Reckless Records on the weekends enjoying the treasure hunt!

ACE Counselor
As the Achieving College Excellence Counselor, Monica provides numerous services to ACE students, including academic support, financial literacy, career counseling, mentoring, and graduate school preparation. The Counselor is committed to creating strong involvement and community among ACE students.
Monica earned both a Bachelor's degree in Human Development and a Master of Arts in Higher Education Administration from Boston College. Prior to starting at Loyola Chicago, Monica has four years of experience in Student Affairs, including work with students that identify as first generation and/or having high financial need, as well as time in both Residence Life and Career Services. During that time, Monica was involved in developing multiple retreats, which is experience she has drawn upon in working with ACE student leaders to craft the Continue To Dream Retreat here with ACE.
Monica benefitted from a strong support network of peers, faculty, and staff during her undergraduate career, and is excited to be a part of ACE to "pay it forward" through providing the same level of guidance and support that allowed her to persist through college. Additionally, as an East Coast transplant here in the midwest, she would love to hear any recommendations you have to add to her ever-growing Chicago Bucket List.

Part-Time Staff:
Tutoring Coordinator
My name is Michelle Thomas and I am the ACE Graduate Tutoring Coordinator. I graduated from Loyola University Chicago with my BS in Mathematics and minors in Statistics and Computer Science in 2016. I am now earning my MS in Applied Statistics here at Loyola. I have been a peer tutor mentor at ACE since 2013. Before working at ACE I volunteered as a tutor in CPS schools. I have also worked at Loyola's Tutoring Center as a supplemental instructor. I mainly tutor math and statistics courses but also have experience in working with students on study skills and other courses. I look forward to continuing to work within the ACE community this year!
General Assistant
My name is Cecilia Gomez and I am the general assistant for the ACE program throughout the summer. I received my BA in Psychology with a concentration in Human Services and a minor in Sociology from DePaul University. Throughout my undergraduate career, I was very active within the TRIO programs at DePaul and Oakton Community College by volunteering during meet-and greets with Upward Bound students, giving tours of the campus, participating in college transfer fairs, and more. I also was Secretary of the Peer Mentors for the Psychology Department at DePaul University where I mentored college students and assisted them with picking classes, understanding their financial aid award letters, and more. Simultaneously, I was an Intern for Northwestern University's Project Excite Program aimed at supporting gifted underrepresented minority students and their families. While being an intern I assisted with coordinating events and an advocate for the students while being a Teacher Assistant. After graduation, I worked as a Parent Educator at Christopher House for over a year assisting low-income at risk teen parents with accomplishing goals, referring them to community resources, and more.
Now, I am going back to school in order to pursue a M.Ed. in Higher Education at Loyola University. I hope to educate first-generation, low-income, and minority students of the endless possibilities that open up when getting a Higher Education and to support them through their journey.

AbstractThe analytical solutions for the temperature variation of two streams in parallel flow, counter flow and cross-flow heat exchangers and related entropy generation due to heat exchange between the streams are presented. The analysis of limiting cases for the relative entropy generation is performed, and corresponding analytical expressions are given. The obtained results may be included in a more general procedure concerning optimal heat exchanger design.

Dear Readers: With the holidays right around the corner, here is a great gift idea that you can make at home, is low-cost and the recipient will just love. It is Heloise's bath salts! It's easy to make, and here is what you need:
- 3 cups Epsom salts
- 1 tablespoon glycerin
- Food coloring
- Perfume/cologne or an essential oil
To make, pour the Epsom salts into a glass or metal bowl (Do not use plastic — this recipe could stain it). Add the glycerin, a couple of drops of food coloring and a little perfume, cologne or essential oil. Mix well until the food coloring and glycerin are thoroughly blended.
Note: If the bath salts are not fragrant enough, you can add a bit more perfume, cologne or essential oil.
Be sure to put the bath salts into a decorative jar with a tight-sealing lid so the fragrance does not evaporate. To use, add 1/2 cup to your bath, sit back and enjoy! — Heloise
Dear Heloise: My mother was raised during the Depression. What you had, you took good care of. That has held true for me through the years in the kitchen — pots, pans, utensils, dishes, etc. You cleaned them well enough to be displayed. It's just good common sense to care for things and not be a part of the "throw-away" society.
I've lived by this adage for years, and still have many lovely older items in my home. — Laura in San Antonio
Good cookware can last several generations! I have my grandmother's cast-iron skillet, and it makes the best cornbread. — Heloise
