Mawson's Expedition to the Antarctic is an excerpt from the film Antarctic Pioneers (30mins), produced in 1962.
Antarctic Pioneers: One of Australia's most famous photographers and explorers, Frank Hurley, narrates this absorbing film on the history of Australia's first expeditions to the Antarctic continent between 1911 and 1954. It includes remarkable, original footage of the expedition on the tall ship Aurora in 1911, the Campbell expedition in 1947 and the Law expedition in 1954.
Much of this film was made by Hurley when he accompanied Sir Douglas Mawson and an Australian party to the Antarctic in 1912, and on later expeditions. The program traces the history of the Australian expeditions between 1911 and 1914 and the establishment of Mawson Station. A rare film which reveals the true hardship and courage of these early pioneers.
Antarctic Pioneers was produced by the Commonwealth Film Unit with the co-operation of The Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition.

There are 26 nations that claim parts of Antarctica as their territory. Australia is the largest, claiming 42 per cent of the total area.
In 1911 Douglas Mawson led the first Australian expedition to Antarctica. His aim was to map and explore the coastal area of Antarctica closest to Australia. Mawson selected his team and in the ship Aurora they sailed through 1500 kilometres of pack ice to the Antarctic coast.
In spring 1912, several parties of explorers set out on foot from their camp.
Mawson led the team comprising Swiss scientist Dr Xavier Mertz and Lieutenant Belgrave Ninnis. A team of greenland huskies pulled their sleds.
Mawson's party travelled east for over a thousand kilometres mapping the coastline, collecting geological samples and discovering huge glaciers.
Fighting appalling weather and poor light, the trio had to drag themselves and their supplies around crevasses and slippery, ice-covered rock. Five weeks into the journey Ninnis disappeared down a deep crevasse along with a team of dogs and the sled carrying most of their food. Mawson and Mertz had to turn back and, in order to survive, they were forced to shoot and eat the remaining huskies.
Mertz became sick and increasingly weak from the toxic levels of vitamin A in the dogs' livers, and he too died. Mawson was near death – his feet were bloody, his skin was falling away and he had lost a lot of weight.
- List eight points you observe about the Antarctic from the video clip.

- How does the filmmaker use narration, visual images and sound effects to create this image? Find at least three different examples from the video clip.
- Describe the attitude you think the early explorers had towards the environment. For example, do you think that they wanted to conquer the environment or just find out as much as they could about the geography?
- Describe the messages you think that the filmmaker is trying to convey to the viewers about humans' relationship with the environment and human endeavour.
- One of the values of many people today is a belief in ecological sustainability – having as little impact as possible on an environment. Do you think the pioneer scientists of this video clip shared that value?
Write a 100-word explanation and include comments on aspects such as the use of animals, attitudes to wildlife, use of technology to help you work out an answer. - The film was made in 1962 from original footage shot in 1911–12.

Stem Cell Transplants
What Is a Stem Cell Transplant?
A stem cell transplant is when doctors put healthy stem cells into someone's bloodstream to replace their stem cells.
It can take a while to feel better after a stem cell transplant, but the treatment can be very helpful for some illnesses.
What Are Stem Cells?
Stem cells are cells that can develop into many different types of cells. The stem cells used for transplants form blood cells. They become:
- red blood cells that carry oxygen
- white blood cells that fight infection
- platelets that help blood clot
Why Are Stem Cell Transplants Done?
Stem cell transplants can help people with:
- severe blood or immune system illnesses
- some kinds of cancer
- immune deficiency
- autoimmune diseases such as lupus
- blood disorders (such as thalassemia or sickle cell disease)
Where Do the Stem Cells Come From?
Doctors can get the stem cells from the:
- bone marrow (this is also called a bone marrow transplant)
- bloodstream
- umbilical cord blood after the cord is no longer attached to a newborn baby
A person who provides the stem cells is a donor. For some illnesses, people can be their own donor. Their stem cells are taken out, frozen, and transplanted back later. Other times, someone else donates the stem cells.
When stem cells come from another person, the stem cells must have similar genetic makeup. Usually, a person's brother or sister is a good match. A parent or even an unrelated person sometimes can be a match.
What Can Happen When a Donor Isn't a Good Match?
If the donor stem cells are not a good match (and sometimes even if they are):
- The body's immune system can attack the donor stem cells. This is called rejection.
- The transplanted cells can attack the body's cells. This is called graft-versus-host disease.
How Are Stem Cell Transplants Done?
Before a stem cell transplant, doctors place a central line (or central venous catheter). This type of IV (intravenous) line goes into the skin and into a large vein near the heart. A central line can stay in the body longer than a regular IV. It gives the medical team a way to give medicines and collect blood for testing without doing a lot of needle sticks.
Stem cell transplants are done in the hospital. First, the person getting the donated stem cells has high doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation to:
- kill the unhealthy cells causing the illness
- weaken their immune system so it doesn't reject the donor stem cells
Then, the person gets the donor stem cells through an line (IV).
What Happens After the Transplant?
After someone has a stem cell transplant, their body needs time to make new red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. During this time, they're at a higher risk for infections, bleeding, and other problems.
Most people stay in the hospital for 3–5 weeks after the transplant. Their medical team will:
- Do blood tests to see if the transplanted stem cells are making new blood cells.
- Give medicines to help prevent rejection and graft-versus-host disease.
- Give medicines to prevent infections.
- Give transfusions of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
- Check that organs (such as the liver and kidneys) are working properly.
- Treat any problems that happen, such as mouth sores, vomiting, diarrhea, infections, bleeding, rejection, and graft-versus-host disease.
- Make sure the patient is getting good nutrition.
- Make sure that all visitors follow infection prevention rules, which include:
- No sick visitors.
- All visitors must wash their hands before entering the room.
- All visitors must wear a mask, gloves, and gown.
How Can I Feel Better?
It takes the immune system about a year to recover after a stem cell transplant. Until then, the person can get very sick from infections. Even a mild infection, like a cold, can be serious. To help you avoid infections:
- You, family members, and visitors should wash their hands well and often with antibacterial soap and/or hand sanitizer.
- Stay away from anyone who is sick.
- Bathe every day with a mild shampoo and soap.
Follow your medical team's instructions for:
- when you can go to school or other public places
- when you need to wear a mask
- what foods are OK for you
- if you can be around pets
What Else Should I Know?
Most teens who have had a stem cell transplant feel better over time after they leave the hospital. Your health care team knows how tough recovery can be, and how important it is to get emotional support. Your doctor, a hospital social worker, or child life specialist can help you get through this difficult time, so be sure to ask.
When Should I Call the Doctor?
You or your parent should call your doctor right away if you:
- have a fever of 100.4°F (38.0°C) or higher
- have a runny nose, cough, or congestion

The title says it all. And 12 months ago I decided to say this and more to you, whoever "you" happens to be from week to week out there in the e-world.

That old symbol of the unity of peasants and workers looks set to get whitewashed out of history.
The Polish government is currently cooking up a bill in parliament to remove all communist symbols which you can still see on the outside of buildings, on monuments and in some cemeteries.
This is just one part, of course, of the de-communization of Poland that so drives most of the ruling coalition.
The symbol in Poland can only have nostalgia for a few deluded folk, and the hip retro-ketch crowd. There is a craze for opening commie retro restaurants, and they seem relatively popular – though Poland lacks the oustalgia currently trendy in Germany.
But in Russia and parts of the old Soviet Union, the symbol still has resonance. The Bryansk Oblast district flag includes the hammer and sickle.The 'republic' of Transnistria also uses the hammer and sickle in its national flag.
But most incredibly, the former Soviet airline (now Russian), Aeroflot, continues to use the hammer and sickle as part of its symbol.

Poland to liquidate hammer and sickle?

Take them out. Symbols carry great weight. They also should have dynamited the Palace of Culture back in the early 90s. Now that would have been symbolic.
Btw, are you going to comment on the whole Barbara Blida "suicide"? - 10:42 pm

I'm pretty sure there's no majority will to dynamite the PoC and such a move would be highly undemocratic.

I sort of agree with korakious, I think memorial isn't the right word exactly, but it's good to have physical reminders of real history.

The coat of arms of the Republic of Austria, btw, shows an eagle holding a hammer and a sickle in its claws. Nice, isn't it? Reference on the Web: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundeswappen_%C3%96sterreichs.

Those who know Poland know that attitudes and mindsets run deep and their influence can have a negative impact long after the formal institutions have gone. Everything possible should be done to change those attitudes and mindsets. I know many people who still think in a vertical, command and control/scarcity economy mindset, and this is hurting Poland more than anything else right now. Communist symbols only operate as distractions and perpetuations of an older culture. Get rid of them.
For interesting evidence of the persistence of mindsets in France, for example, read this column in the Times (london):

I am against scrubbing away history too. It's taking the meaning of 'lustration' (something to do with 'cleansing') to it's absurd conclusion, I suppose).
But the Aeroflot insistence of sticking with hammers and sickles is just nuts.
"This is an old Russian brand, which everyone associates with Aeroflot. This logo is so harmonious that is has proved difficult to replace," Aeroflot's deputy director general, Lev Koshlyakov, told the French news agency AFP.
Aeroflot has a terrible brand image – aeroFLOP …so cleansing the past in that case would be a very good idea. - 7:19 am

"I know many people who still think in a vertical, command and control/scarcity economy mindset, and this is hurting Poland more than anything else right now."
Leaving aside the question of how much this is hurting Poland (I can think of things I think are hurting more) those two ways of thinking go back before communism.
Polish people are hierarchical, according to research among the most hierarchical in Europe (see Hofstede). The church has just as much to do with that as communism.
The second comes from European peasant culture (though it's not limited to europe by any means).
It's called the 'theory of the limited good' (or something like that).
Removing soviet memorabilia only reinforces these two ways of thinking. On the one hand, the meta-message is that history is what the people in charge right now say it is. It also underlines a fixed unchanging concept of public space, where any particular ideology can only grow at the expense of others. - 8:32 am
- beatroot said...
I am going to investigate this 'hierachical' idea later...it seems to fit with much I have observed (including sitting around waiting for the boss to have an all the ideas - all they do (older ones, particulalrly) is complain about chnge, but never try and initiate it).
But what you are saying Mike also goes with the curent 'change street names' idea.
It's a history whitewash. - 8:44 am
- Agnes said...
"I wouldn't even mind some fascist symbols remaining on display." korakious, have a good flight with those symbols.
"It's a history whitewash" - Beat, whenever history hasn't been faced and digested properly, then you find these street name fights and symbol clashes: and the USSR or CIS and Eastern Europe haven't faced their own history so far. And not only Polish people are hierarchical, if we are at that... - 2:34 pm
Following the logic of the most recent thread, I suppose that buildings in Berlin should still have swastikas on them. Remember the famous newsreel of the swastika on a building in Germany being blown up? History should be handled by historians in schools and photographs and they can do a good job of it. The Germans have put almost everything into history books, as far as I know. Those buildings left standing have been made into museums.
There was an interesting article in the NYT recently that emphasizes the need for a common history book in Lebanon as perhaps the best tool to unify the country (currently, Christians teach their own version of the Civil War, Muslims their own version, etc.). That plays a much more important role in preserving history than a building or a street name.
Agreed that the hierarchical thinking probably pre-dates communism; point well taken. However one has to start somewhere to accelerate the change. The removal of communist symbols and its importance shouldn't be confused with the wacky antics of the Ducklings.
BTW, saw that you had commented on Blida. Earlier question withdrawn, sorry. - 2:36 pm
- Korakious said...
I suppose that buildings in Berlin should still have swastikas on them.
Aye, because Swastikas are pretty and they were probably there before Nazism anyway. - 2:57 pm

You see, we should out all this in the context of what is going on in Estonia...another battle with historical symbols.
- 3:12 pm
- michael farris said...
The big difference between Estonia and Poland is that there's no local constituency nostalgic for the Soviet Union here (despite government hysteria to the contrary) while a quarter or so of the population in Estonia arguably is.
I don't know enough about Estonia to say anything intelligent about the monument controversy there except ... that moving the monument represents no political gain whatsoever (while angering a considerable portion of the population as well as a large and economically necessary neighbor).
Not smart politics in anybody's book. - 5:22 pm
"That old symbol of the unity of peasants and workers" – certainly the most grotesque misrepresentation of what the old soviet symbol was. Being more blood drenched then the swastika is it's only historic distinction.
The impact on Germany of banning the swastika was it positive or negative?
The importance of symbolism in Poland versus other societies is also something to consider. Often memory and myth were very important in the persistence of an idea of Poland and expressed in symbols.
What is important is not to forget the past but to be seen to have buried it. I fully agree with making the hammer and sickle an illegal symbol. The issue of the Palace of Culture also needs to be addressed by means of its immediate demolition. - 6:03 pm
Beatroot said: "You see, we should out all this in the context of what is going on in Estonia...another battle with historical symbols"
Less about historic symbolism and more about ethnic tensions. The Russian minority found a focus point to express their frustrations with not being treated as equals. The Estonians view these Russians as colonists sent to Estonia to complete the Soviet plans for genocide there.
The Estonians could have defused this by not lumping all Russians in the same pot. Maintaining dignified recognition of ordinary Russians who drove out the Nazis and emphasizing condemnation of the Soviet government and it security services. - 6:17 pm
^ Er, those would be the same ordinary Russians who drove out the Nazis who had driven out the Russians who invaded Estonia and declared it to be part of the USSR?

It is interesting that nobody has yet quoted the classic Anne Applebaum's rant that while everyone despises swastikas, not much contempt is held for the communist symbols:
in post-war Germany, Nazi memorabilia was illegal, the Nazi party was banned - and it has never revived on any large scale. The German state paid enormous reparations to individual Jews (if not always to others) and to the state of Israel. While the Germans may not have talked much about the war in public, official histories of the war were published, monuments were constructed. Everyone knew about Nuremburg; the groundwork was laid for the younger generation to discover the past. By the 1960s - sparked, in fact, by the trial of Auschwitz guards - when the national debate finally began, at least it was possible for the children of Nazis to discover what their parents had done. By the 1980s, the past had almost become a national obsession. [...] In Eastern Europe, by contrast, communist symbols and songs are not banned. Communist parties are not banned everywhere either. On the contrary, although the laws vary from country to country, in many places communist parties have been allowed to retain their (sometimes enormous) assets: buildings, foreign bank accounts, membership lists, cars and homes. Retired communist party members continue to receive outsize pensions.
Applebaum then spends a lot of time trying to analyze the issue, yet she brilliantly manages to miss the point. The reason the swastikas are despised is that the Nazism has been blamed in Nuremberg on the top NSDAP officials, and the common people who supported the regime have been, in this way, absolved. The war is thus being seen not as an action of the German people, but of the misterious group of the Nazis, who have appeared out of nowhere in the 1930s and disappeared in 1945; and the German people were but theirs victim. The origin of Nazis is not discussed, so it is logical to conclude that they were the aliens of some sort.
The communism, on the other hand, ended its life without the symbolic trials of the scapegoats; and so, every citizen of a post-communist country has been left with judging his own contribution in supporting the murderous system. And everyone was supporting it to some extent; because such was its pervasive, all-encompassing nature. And it lasted for tens of years, so it has - the horror! - built many things directed at the well-being of its people. To reject the communism altogether, would thus mean to reject a part of one's own. - 7:05 pm
I am not aware of any buildings in Poland prominently deplaying the hammer and sickle; because it was always viewed as a symbol of oppression and so, avoided. But if something like this remains, yes, it should be definitely removed.
But, the legislation is most likely directed at the monuments and graves comemorating the death of Soviet soldiers on Polish territory, which do, in fact, display such insignia. To me, such move would be analogous to removing the crosess from Christian graves; it would be nothing short of a desecration. - 7:17 pm
- beatroot said...
I, for one, would ban no symbols at all. Some are offensive: the swastika is deeply.
And if you remember what Jannovak57 said, the way Stalin treated the peasants and kulaks then the hammer with a sickle is pretty revolting as well. But that is because I am interpreting hammer/sickle in that way. To others it means something else. So it isn't some object that you can bash me over the head with.
Offensive they may be: but that's about it. They can't do anything to us but offend. And as we are adults, being offended is just part of life. A symbol of a hammer and sickle can't harm us – a real hammer and a real sickle could. A symbol is just a symbol.
The Nazis and Germans. I read a book called Hitler's Willing Executioners. It looks not just at what the brown shirted party members did, or the top shock troops, he looks at what the people did (can't remember who wrote it…it's on my shelf but am too tired to go look for it).
He looks at the ideology of Nazism and how it took hold. He looks at all the other Germans that resisted them too.
But you are right: people must take responsibility for what they do. And what they don't do. Same with Poles. Same with the British.
But there again – I am not responsible for colonialism or slavery. Or Yalta. So don't expect me, or younger Germans to say sorry for anything other than what we responsible for today. - 7:27 pm
Harry said... " Er, those would be the same ordinary Russians who drove out the Nazis who had driven out the Russians who invaded Estonia and declared it to be part of the USSR? "
The draftees that made up the Red army came extensively from farms and factory i.e. ordinary people swept up by history this group undertook must of the combat and therefore most of the casualties. In so far as the destruction of the Nazis goes this has to be recognized as a noble action. Have no illusions the NKVD and communist apparatus stayed in the rear areas were they got to perpetrate atrocities against the "newly liberated populations" in relative safety.
Then as today all Russians can't be categorized as all the same. - 7:36 pm
- beatroot said...
The history of Soviet atrocities when invading is pretty disgusting. That's why Poles feared the Russians even more than Germans. There is a history of some nasty behaviour. And each of them has to take responsibility for the rapes, etc.
But we have to draw a continuum of guilt. Those with authority who tell people what to do, must be worse than the person who takes the order. - 7:47 pm
Hitler's Willing Executioners
Oh yes. The issue is that the willing executioners have blamed everything on the scapegoats in Nuremberg and then relegated it to history books. And now they have the decency to claim to be victims, because they were driven out of their homes. After all, they didn't start the war; the Nazis did!
This is where banning history gets you. - 7:52 pm

Sehr gut stuff. Makes the Beatroot worth reading.

Interestingly, Lucy Davidowitz (noted in the review as an "intentionalist" -- a historian who argued that "the German all- but-total elimination of European Jewry was the consequence either of the intentions of a few mad leaders who were able to coerce an otherwise decent people into becoming tools in their vicious schemes") was the woman who was probably the main force in coldcocking Norman Davies, author of God's Playground: A History of Poland, out of getting tenure at Stanford.
From the Wikipedia article on Davies:
(Dawidowitz and others) object(ed) to Davies' historical treatment of the Holocaust in Nazi-occupied Poland. They accuse him of minimising historic antisemitism, and of promoting a view that the Holocaust occupies a position in international historiography which tends to minimise the suffering of non-Jewish Poles and even denounce them as antisemites. Davies' supporters contend that he gives due attention to the genocide and war crimes perpetrated by both Hitler and Stalin on Polish Jews and non-Jews. Davies himself argues that "Holocaust scholars need have no fears that rational comparisons might threaten that uniqueness. Quite the opposite." and that "...one needs to re-construct mentally the fuller picture in order to comprehend the true enormity of Poland's wartime cataclysm, and then to say with absolute conviction 'Never Again'."34
In 1986, Dawidowicz's criticism of Davies' historical treatment of the Holocaust was cited as a factor in a controversy at Stanford University in which Davies was denied a tenured faculty position for alleged "scientific flaws". Davies sued the university for breach of contract and defamation of character, but in 1989 the court ruled that it did not have jurisdiction in an academic matter.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Davies - 8:42 pm
- beatroot said...
I have met Davies twice. I worked with his son. And when you meet someone you get a feeling about them. The guy is certainly not minimizing the Holocaust. He never takes away the Jewish suffering, but he does remind of other sufferings, too.
And that university thing was a scandal, but not unusual. And it's got much worse since then. Academic freedom? Hah, ha…
To insinuate he was anti-Semite (which they did, I think) is just stupid.
But even many Poles think he is too 'pro-Pole'. - 8:57 pm
Wait a minute. After reading and trying to digest the whole article, I can see how you say, BR, that Germans very surprisingly loved it (although this did not happen all at once; indeed at first the conservatives attacked Goldhagen while the liberals championed him. But later the poles were reversed in their consideration of Goldhagen according to the review piece).
But I am confused as to why you conclude Christians hated Goldhagen's book Willing Executioners.
While the Christian(?) reviewer Michael Zank actually criticized Goldhagen for redemptively mythologizing German democratic progress since WWII, I don't get any sense from the article that the religious of the Protestant or Catholic churches were similarly or otherwise critical of the Goldhagen.
But, nonetheless, Zank's conclusions seem to shed some light on what's going on in Poland these days:
"Since I am not a sociologist or a political scientist I cannot assess the validity of the argument from the perspective of these disciplines. As a scholar of religion, however, I recognize myths of redemption when I see them. Subscribing to the Enlightenment as he does, Goldhagen shares the idea that human beings and their behavior can be improved if one educates them properly; or, as Goethe rhymed, "Wer immer strebend sich bemüht, den können wir erlösen." The classic secularized myth of redemption. The alleged difference in German thinking before and after 1945 is meant to prove that profound change can happen if a sufficient effort is made. A murderous deviant society can be turned into a peace loving member of the human family. How we wish that matters were that simple! Vanquish the enemy, then reeducate.
Social and political myths of redemption have been coming and going for the past 250 years but that does not mean that we have become tired of dreaming. Goldhagen's narrative implied that Germans once were evil and now are good, no longer dangerous and paradigmatically democratic, a story tailormade for Germans desiring, however unconsciously, to bury the past by overcoming it. By providing Germans with such a quasi religious perspective on the past Goldhagen's engaging treatise and the ensuing debates paradoxically contributed to a closure of our thinking on the Holocaust rather than to a continued effort to understand the fundamental and critical implications of this event for Western civilization, and civilization in general." - 4:15 pm
- beatroot said...
I read the book about four years ago, so it's a bit haZy...but in the early chapters he looks at the inherent anti-Semitism in Christianity. You still see this today - remember my review of Giertychs latest magnus opus? 'They rejected Him, that's why their lives have been shit...' etc. - 5:52 pm
So you're saying that Goldhagen was critical of German Christians and they responded in-kind. That could have been the case but I've seen no documentation of that occurence (not that I've looked at all). Very weird though that Zank, writing in the Journal of Religious Studies (or somesuch), didn't even so much as mention the German Christian response to the book or Goldhagen. Seems to me Zank just chronicled the political response of intellectuals of the left and right (again without noting the response of self-identifying Christian intellectuals or others who might be expected to comment).

And if you remember what Jannovak57 said, the way Stalin treated the peasants and kulaks then the hammer with a sickle is pretty revolting as well.

If you would only read comments before spouting off about them then you would not make yourself look so stupid. - 5:42 am
Well, ugh, Bill Donohue, Michael Novak, and George Weigel for the Catholic League. But they have about as much relation to the Vatican as the stinky socks I have laying in the corner.
But even they (not my socks) sometimes do make valid criticisms and it seems that Goldhager was zapped by most serious historians from all over the political spectrum, especially for _A Moral Reckoning_. And that Jewish guy authoring the linked article too.
Thanks for the citations. I somehow missed the uproar. Now, I gotta look to see where Goldhager wound up -- while Davies got zapped at Stanford. - 4:53 pm
Huh. Go figure... according to Wikipedia:
Partly as a result of the controversy surrounding his book, Goldhagen was turned down for tenure at Harvard.[citation needed] He remains an affiliate of the Harvard Center for European Studies. - 5:58 pm

Are any of you Polish? Polish people are not historically all farmers and industrial employees. Poland is a country of art and intellect. Communism reassigned scientists to store clerks and store clerks to be in control of schools.
Have any of you lived in Poland during communism? Any of you ever had to wake up at 4:00 am to line up at the market to buy something other than milk and cheese for dinner? Have you ever had to bribe someone or ride the bus to the next town just to see if you could find black panty hose, or panty hose in general?
The sickle and hammer belongs to Russia. Poland is not Russia. As a matter of fact, after the war, Poland lost part of its land mass thanks to the "allies," who did not respond to S.O.S. pleas from the Polish ghetto, but you know the Jews were the only people who suffered the war - they all fled to other countries and found a better life. The Poles lost all their personal family property to communism and had to deal with shortages and side-jobs to make ends meet.
The Polish symbol is a giant, angry looking bird, much like the Phoenix. The Poles did not erect those symbols, and they are someone else's history. - 8:36 am
Leave it. Its just a symbol, nothing more, nothing less. There should be no controversy over a simple symbol.
- 6:23 pm
whats wrong with a symbol that represents the true people of a country, the working class, the ones who do all the work while others sit in their offices and get paid for doing nothing, the symbol stays because it gives the working class something to be proud of, they are the ones in charge, without them their nation would not exist, through struggles brought upon by the gov. the working class still manages to pull through, why? bec they are strong, they are keen, they know what to do and when to do it.
- 9:02 pm
Wouldn't banning a symbol be interference in the economy since a business couldn't use the symbol if it thought it would help it make money? And isn't interference in the economy socialist? So by banning this symbol Poland would actually be moving closer to communism.

Many of us have no idea what it's like to be homeless.
But many people don't have that luxury. Over 250,000 people in the UK are experiencing homelessness. But it doesn't have to be that way. Beam believes in the potential of everybody and the power of stable employment to help people achieve independence.
I started this fundraising campaign to help Beam support homeless people, and I'm looking for anyone who can help me. Please donate instead of buying me a Christmas pressie!
Please donate to my campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help.
90% of the money will be used to help homeless people get into work. Beam will send us photos and updates so we can see support them along their journey.
So far, donations from this fundraiser have supported 12 people.

It is quite reasonable to associate Dot Records with names such as Pat Boone, Billy Vaughn and the Fontane Sisters, the artists who provided much of the label's income at its height. However, as this exciting and rocking 28-track collection so wonderfully proves, Dot released a rich stream of rock'n'roll from its inception.
Owner Randy Wood formed the label as a sideline from hisNashvillerecord shop at the start of the 50s. The record business was booming and Randy utilised off-air time to cut discs at a radio station in which he had a stake. Like other independent outlets, Dot optimistically put out a variety of material including country, R&B and gospel. By 1952 the label was enjoying success with Johnny Maddox's piano discs and the Hilltoppers, who became their first hit pop act. In 1956 Sanford Clark scored a big hit with 'The Fool' featuring a memorable R&B guitar riff by Al Casey. The record broke inClevelandjust as Dot was relocating toHollywood.
Reacting to the rush of interest in rock'n'roll, Dot cut many of the artists included here, but were also active in licensing in recordings from small labels for national distribution. Their rock'n'roll catalogue is amongst the strongest around, and this 1996 compilation offers the best. Try the rocking 'You're Late Miss Kate' by Jimmy Dee & the Offbeats or 'Johnny, Johnny, Johnny' by Kay Cee Jones as great derivative recordings, or the totally one-off 'Tranfusion' from Nervous Norvus. 'Playboy' from Bob Denton is a very commercial offering and ex-Cricket Niki Sullivan's Lubbock-recorded 'It's All Over' is similarly strong. Strength in depth is provided with the raw rocker 'Call Me Shorty' by Mickey Gilley, cousin of Jerry Lee Lewis, and Jimmy Newman's Nashville-recorded 'Carry On' with superb rocking piano from Floyd Cramer. 'Jitterbuggin'' by the Five Bops is a lovely mid-tempo group number cut at Norman Petty's Clovis studio and leased to Dot subsidiary Hamilton.
The booklet for the CD includes full stories of all the acts and many rare photos, all adding to the worth of this great issue.

7 Countries Admitted into Visa Waiver Program

George W. Bush
For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
October 17, 2008
President Bush Discusses the Visa Waiver Program
Rose Garden
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all. (Applause.) Please be seated, thank you. Welcome to the White House. I'm pleased to stand with the representatives of seven countries -- the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia, and South Korea -- that have met the requirements to be admitted to the United States Visa Waiver Program. Soon the citizens of these nations will be able to travel to the United States for business or tourism without a visa. I congratulate these close friends and allies on this achievement, and I thank you for joining us here.
I also thank Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Secretary of the Homeland -- Department of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff for working hard to make sure this day has finally arrived. Appreciate other members of the administration here and members of the Diplomatic Corps.
All of the nations represented here today allow American citizens to travel to their countries visa-free. The United States has not accorded their citizens the same privilege. For years the leaders of these nations have explained to me how frustrating it is for their citizens to wait in lines and pay visa fees to take a vacation or make a business trip or visit their families here in the United States. These close friends of America told me that it was unfair that their people had to jump through bureaucratic hoops that other allies can walk around.
I told them I agree with them. I also told them that in the world after September 11th, we could only expand travel opportunities if we increased security measures at the same time. So nearly two years ago, my administration asked Congress to modernize our Visa Waiver Program in a way that accomplished both of these goals. I appreciate the bipartisan support this initiative has received on Capitol Hill. My administration worked with Congress to pass a law allowing us to admit new countries to the Visa Waiver Program. These countries agree to share information about threats to our people. They also agree that their citizens use a new system that requires travelers to register online ahead of their visits to the United States. These citizens will travel to the United States only if they have tamper-proof biometric passports. I'm grateful to the dedicated officers from the United States and our allies who worked hard to complete the agreements to meet these new requirements.
Because of this good work, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff has notified our Congress that the administration intends to use its new authority to admit seven countries into the Visa Waiver Program. In about a month, we will be proud to extend to citizens of these seven countries the privilege of visa-free travel.
Today's announcement signifies a new chapter in the relationship between the United States and your nations. It is a testament to the strong bonds of friendship that unite our people. This is a significant achievement, but it is only the start. A number of America's other close friends are participating in a process called the "visa waiver road map" that is helping them qualify for the Visa Waiver Program. I welcome the ambassadors from these "road map" countries -- Bulgaria, Cyprus, Greece, Malta, Poland, and Romania. We thank you for coming today. We thank you for your friendship. And we look forward to the day when your countries join the Visa Waiver Program.
I believe the best foreign policy for America is one that lets people from other countries get to know this country firsthand. Throughout our history, some of the strongest advocates of freedom have been those who came to America and saw the blessings of liberty with their own eyes. Extending this opportunity to some of our closest allies deepens our friendship and makes all our countries safer. I'm grateful to all the countries here for seeking to strengthen the ties between our citizens. I look forward to even stronger partnerships in the years ahead.
Thank you for coming. (Applause.)

Generating 'green' electricity: Waste heat converted to electricity using new alloy

University of Minnesota engineering researchers in the College of Science and Engineering have recently discovered a new alloy material that converts heat directly into electricity. This revolutionary energy conversion method is in the early stages of development, but it could have wide-sweeping impact on creating environmentally friendly electricity from waste heat sources.
Researchers say the material could potentially be used to capture waste heat from a car's exhaust that would heat the material and produce electricity for charging the battery in a hybrid car. Other possible future uses include capturing rejected heat from industrial and power plants or temperature differences in the ocean to create electricity. The research team is looking into possible commercialization of the technology.
"This research is very promising because it presents an entirely new method for energy conversion that's never been done before," said University of Minnesota aerospace engineering and mechanics professor Richard James, who led the research team."It's also the ultimate 'green' way to create electricity because it uses waste heat to create electricity with no carbon dioxide."
To create the material, the research team combined elements at the atomic level to create a new multiferroic alloy, Ni45Co5Mn40Sn10. Multiferroic materials combine unusual elastic, magnetic and electric properties. The alloy Ni45Co5Mn40Sn10 achieves multiferroism by undergoing a highly reversible phase transformation where one solid turns into another solid. During this phase transformation the alloy undergoes changes in its magnetic properties that are exploited in the energy conversion device.
During a small-scale demonstration in a University of Minnesota lab, the new material created by the researchers begins as a non-magnetic material, then suddenly becomes strongly magnetic when the temperature is raised a small amount. When this happens, the material absorbs heat and spontaneously produces electricity in a surrounding coil. Some of this heat energy is lost in a process called hysteresis. A critical discovery of the team is a systematic way to minimize hysteresis in phase transformations. The team's research was recently published in the first issue of the new scientific journal Advanced Energy Materials.
Watch a short research video of the new material suddenly become magnetic when heated: http://z.umn.edu/conversionvideo.
In addition to Professor James, other members of the research team include University of Minnesota aerospace engineering and mechanics post-doctoral researchers Vijay Srivastava and Kanwal Bhatti, and Ph.D. student Yintao Song. The team is also working with University of Minnesota chemical engineering and materials science professor Christopher Leighton to create a thin film of the material that could be used, for example, to convert some of the waste heat from computers into electricity.
"This research crosses all boundaries of science and engineering," James said. "It includes engineering, physics, materials, chemistry, mathematics and more. It has required all of us within the university's College of Science and Engineering to work together to think in new ways."
Funding for early research on the alloy came from a Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) grant from the U.S. Office of Naval Research (involving other universities including the California Institute of Technology, Rutgers University, University of Washington and University of Maryland), and research grants from the U.S. Air Force and the National Science Foundation. The research is also tentatively funded by a small seed grant from the University of Minnesota's Initiative for Renewable Energy and the Environment.

Q. I've been diagnosed with advanced cancer. I have five children and feel they don't want me around for Christmas, because it makes them sad, and they don't have the time for both me and their own families. I can't be alone. I don't know what to do to or what to say to them.
I am very sorry to hear that you are facing these challenges this holiday season. While you feel that your children are not wanting to have you with them, you don't say whether you have spoken with them about your concerns. It may be that they are unsure of how you are feeling or what your expectations might be concerning Christmas. If you are in need of any special assistance or equipment to facilitate spending time with them, they may not feel prepared to manage those needs. The key may be to open up a discussion with them to talk about your preferences for being with family that day and to address the practical considerations that would make it possible.
As difficult as it is to cope with cancer during the holidays, it is also possible to be joyful. For many, the idea that you can feel both sad and joyful is an unusual concept. While your family may experience feelings of sadness associated with the many issues related to your cancer, there can also be joyfulness when spending time together with those who mean so much and creating memories of a special day. The challenge can be in maintaining an awareness of the pleasures that are available in the midst of a very difficult time.
Many people face challenges like yours during the holiday season. It might be helpful for you to speak with a CancerCare social worker about your unique circumstances, so please call us at 1-800-813-HOPE (4673). We've also compiled suggestions that might be helpful in our fact sheet, Coping With Cancer During the Holidays.

ORIGINAL: Number one contender for the Knockouts Title at Bound for Glory this Sunday, Tara, talks exclusively to Diva Dirt about her match with former partner, Brooke Tessmacher, and a number of other topics.
The veteran Knockout talks about her friendship and storyline with Brooke, the match Sunday, her recent heel turn and her mysterious Hollywood boyfriend.
Tara also dishes on recent TNA tryout matches she's been part of with former WWE stars Jillian Hall and Ivelisse Velez.
On TNA putting more effort into Knockouts storylines & her storyline with Brooke Tessmacher: "I think that's a testament to Dave Lagana. He was the beginning of my career in WWE with storylines, and Bruce Prichard, too, who was always part of creative. I think Lagana took us, the girls division, under his wing and he's really been putting a lot of thought [in it], not just throwing us out there to have a two minute match. We have a good creative staff now — Bruce Prichard, Eric Bischoff, Dave Lagana. We have a good team. It's exciting. [...] They see how well the ratings are excelling, and how valuable the Knockouts are. I'm thankful that we have Dave Lagana."
On who her Hollywood boyfriend is: "It's going to be a big surprise. He's a big deal, I'll be honest. You'll be familiar who he is. I'm excited. I'm biting my tongue not to say anything. He's super dreamy. I can't wait for you guys to see him."
On former WWE Diva Jillian Hall's recent TNA tryout: "Who do you think got her that tryout? I went up to Al Snow, I said, 'Why isn't Jillian wrestling? She's an amazing wrestler'. And he goes, 'But does she want to still?'. I called her and said, 'Hey, do you want to come to TNA?' and she said, 'I don't know. How is it there?' I said it's amazing. I gave her Al Snow's number and next thing I know, I get the call saying I've got a match against Jillian at the next show. Of course I want to see her [in TNA]. She's amazing. She has good ring presence, is a tight, solid wrestler. They were really pleased with her wrestling too. I hope she gets signed."

For all the food I take extra care and time to make from scratch, I find it hard to believe that until very recently, I was a lazy pancake person. The occasional German pancake made from scratch and many a Bisquick special (with blueberries thrown in for a homemade feel) are what come out of my kitchen when pancakes are on the menu.
This all changed last weekend. I was flipping through Marcus Wareing's How to Make The Perfect… cookbook and stumbled upon a recipe for pancakes. Not just any pancakes; these are, "this guy is taking the time to whip egg whites to soft peaks and fold them into his batter" pancakes. I was immediately shamed. I looked in the fridge and was relieved to find that I had enough eggs to rectify what was clearly years and years of pancake laziness.
I can officially say that I am pancake reformed. These were the lightest and most delicious pancakes I have ever had. When I say light I don't mean not rich, I mean that the air that's incorporated during the whipping of the egg whites imparts a delicate lightness to these beauties. As a result, they fall slightly when you remove them from the pan, but the flavor is still amazing. If you are a lazy pancake person like I was, you have try these, even just once.
