Charlotte, N.C. • President Barack Obama inherited a wreck of an economy, "put a floor under the crash" and laid the foundation for millions of good new jobs, former President Bill Clinton declared Wednesday night in a Democratic National Convention appeal aimed at millions of hard-pressed Americans yet to decide how to vote.
"If you want a you're-on-your-own, winner-take-all society, you should support the Republican ticket," Clinton said. "If you want a country of shared prosperity and shared responsibility — a we're-all-in-this-together society — you should vote for Barack Obama and Joe Biden."

Obama's high command released excerpts of his remarks hours before Clinton's appearance as they worked to control the political fallout from an embarrassing retreat on the party platform.
Under criticism from Republican challenger Mitt Romney, they abruptly rewrote the day-old document to insert a reference to God and to declare that Jerusalem "is and will remain the capital of Israel." Some delegates objected loudly, but Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, presiding in the largely-empty hall, ruled them outvoted. White House aides said Obama had personally ordered the changes, but they did not disclose whether he had approved the earlier version.
The episode was an unwanted intrusion for Democratic officials, who scripted the evening to showcase Clinton, popular 12 years after he left office with the budget in balance and now their unofficial ambassador-in-chief to anxious voters in a tough economy.
The convention hall rocked with delegates' applause and cheers as Clinton strolled onstage. Sounds of "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow," his 1992 campaign theme song, filled the hall.
"In Tampa the Republican argument against the president's re-election was pretty simple: 'We left him a total mess, he hasn't finished cleaning it up yet, so fire him and put us back in,'" Clinton said in advance excerpts.
"I like the argument for President Obama's re-election a lot better. He inherited a deeply damaged economy, put a floor under the crash, began the long hard road to recovery and laid the foundation for a more modern, more well-balanced economy that will produce millions of good new jobs, vibrant new businesses, and lots of new wealth for the innovators."
Obama flew into his convention city earlier in the day and arrived in the hall for Clinton's speech. He arranged to join the former president onstage afterward in a made-for-television joint appearance.
On an unsettled convention day, aides scrapped plans for the president to speak to a huge crowd in a 74,000 seat football stadium, citing the threat of bad weather in a city that has been pelted by heavy downpours in recent days.
"We can't do anything about the rain. The important thing is the speech," said Washington Rey, a delegate from Sumter, S.C.
That and the eight-week general election campaign about to begin between Obama and Republican challenger Romney, who spent his second straight day in Vermont preparing for this fall's debates with Obama.
Clinton shared prime time with Elizabeth Warren, the Democratic candidate for a Republican-held Senate seat in Romney's Massachusetts. For many years "our middle class has been chipped, squeezed and hammered," she said.
In a tight race for the White House and with control of the Senate at stake, Democrats signaled unmistakable concern about the growing financial disadvantage they confront. Officials said Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who was Obama's first White House chief of staff, was resigning as national co-chair of the president's campaign to help raise money for a super PAC that supports the his re-election.
Unlike candidates, outside groups can solicit donations of unlimited size from donors. At the same time, federal law bars coordination with the campaigns.
Inside the hall, a parade of speakers praised Obama and criticized the Republicans, sometimes harshly.
Sandra Fluke, a law student whom congressional Republicans would not let testify at a hearing on contraceptives, said if Republicans win in the fall, women will wake up to "an America in which access to birth control is controlled by people who will never use it, in which politicians redefine rape."
Clinton's speech marked the seventh consecutive convention he has spoken to party delegates, and the latest twist in a relationship with Obama that has veered from frosty to friendly. The two men clashed in 2008, when Obama outran Hillary Rodham Clinton's wife for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Clinton, then a New York senator, now Obama's Secretary of State, was in East Timor as the party met half a world away. She made a cameo appearance on the huge screens inside the Time Warner Cable Arena, though, turning up in a video that celebrated the 12 Democratic women senators currently in office.
Whatever the past differences between presidents current and past, Obama and his top aides looked to Clinton as the man best able to vouch for him when it comes to the economy, his largest impediment to re-election.
As a group, white men favor Romney over Obama, according to numerous polls, but a Gallup survey taken in July showed 63 percent of them view the former president favorably, to 32 percent who see him in unfavorable terms.Next Page >

The game is very social driven,I see the way it is too stiff but even for the smallest grp effort situation you need...a group.
And recruitment options are great.
Even for the old pvp system you still joined groups or guilds for it,the organized premades.
IMo arena is pure fail but these is not the reason.
If anything, it just makes it less horrible overall.

Quorn looks to fish to broaden appeal
Quorn, the vegetarian brand, is looking to broaden its appeal with the launch of an extended fish-alternative range.
The range of "fish" products will include an Ocean Pie and battered "fish" fillet towards the end of this year. The brand launched a range of "fish-fingers and fishcakes earlier this year.
It hopes the fish-alternative products will increase its appeal to consumers concerned with over-fishing and fish sustainability as well as vegetarians.
Earlier this month the company said it planned to ramp up its TV presence by running advertising every week in a bid to move the meat-free brand from "a niche to a normal" product.
It appointed newly formed ad agency Quorum to handle the account and "revitalise" the Quorn brand.
Quorn was sold to private equity firm Exponent by Premier Foods in January this year. The new company is lead by former Kellogg's marketing director Kevin Brennan.

Light truss systems create the foundation for dynamic sound and lighting effects. The entire lighting display is based on their position and light trusses are a fundamental part of a DJ's stage display. Light truss systems are ideal for creating permanent stage lighting or a universal light display for any venue. Idjnow has trusses to create any truss system, and with the versatility of design available fantastic stage lighting displays are within your reach!
DJ Speaker Stands
DJ speaker stands are a must for both clubs and DJs. DJs need portable speaker stands to reach large audiences, especially when the staging area is level or only slightly elevated The ability to elevate speakers guarantees the sound will travel farther and clearer and reach a far wider audience. Speaker stands are a must for DJs who cater to large venues, but are still important for smaller venues in bringing strong clear sound quality to the entire crowd. The Ultimate Support Bag99D makes lugging multiple portable speaker stands much easier and helps in setting up and breaking down a set.
Portable Truss Systems
Portable truss systems are one of the most important parts of a DJ's stage display. Abra's Complete Truss System LTS31 is an excellent model for a basic portable foundation of any stage light display and is easily assembled. Idjnow has a variety of tripod and truss bags available to make any truss system more portable and crank systems to keep lifting to a minimum.

The Los Angeles Forum for Architecture and Urban Design provides a framework for design professionals and members of the general public to explore, evaluate, and impact the development of architecture in Los Angeles. Throughout its 20+ years of operation, the Forum has brought together young designers, seasoned professionals, critics, urban theorists, artists, students, and people interested in their physical environment in a diverse series of activities. The Forum seeks to reach out beyond the confines of professional organizations, schools and established groups and does not limit itself to one approach to design or theory. It provokes discussion, seeks out places and designs unseen or unnoticed by the general public, publicizes architectural investigation and commentary, and promotes the serious exploration of strategies to influence the development of our urban environment.
Financial support for LA Forum projects has been received from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts, the California Arts Council, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Arts Commission, the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, the Woodbury University School of Architecture, and from many members over the years. The Forum is widely recognized as one of the most active architecture and urban design groups in Southern California.
Organizational & Institutional Co-Sponsorships
Founded in January of 1987, the Forum has organized lecture series and site visits to significant buildings and sites throughout Los Angeles and the region; hosted a number of special events, symposia and a theory reading group; held several design competitions; distributed a quarterly newsletter and online articles; produced many publications, including Experimental Architecture in Los Angeles (Rizzoli International) and Everyday Urbanism (Monacelli Press), as well as national-distributed pamphlet-sized books; and has worked with other groups, architects and institutions to understand its community and participate in activities to rebuild it.
The current website was launched in March, 2010. Site Design + Programming by Handbuilt in collaboration with the LA Forum board of directors. This website redesign project is supported, in part, by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts.

If you want a Bible that answers the hard questions, then the Restoration Study Bible is for you. This attractive resource offers insight and clarity found nowhere else. It is the result of 150 years of in-depth study spanning three generations. The Restoration Study Bible examines the source languages behind the English text to reveal original meanings.
Many Features
In addition to restoring the sacred names Yahweh and Yahshua, this unique Bible has thousands of eye-opening study notes, cross references, instructional charts, a topical reference, Strongs numbering and the Strongs Hebrew and Greek dictionaries.
It answers such questions as:
With all that it offers, we pray that the Restoration Study Bible will be your Bible of choice for in-depth research and learning. You no longer need to rely only on what scholars say now there is a Bible that clearly proves the answers to these and hundreds of other perplexing issues that have troubled Bible students for centuries. It is a library in one volume.
Click images below to enlarge:
Why the King James Version and Strong's?The RSB is based on the King James Version (KJV). The KJV was chosen partly because of its universal use and acceptance. Along with Strong's Exhaustive Concordance numbers in the text, we have included the Strongs Hebrew and Greek dictionaries without alteration or modification at the back of this volume in which to reference those numbers. Each number identifies the word in Hebrew (Old Testament) and Greek (New Testament) from which the English words are translated. Many scholarly Hebrew and Greek lexicons and dictionaries employ Strong's reference numbers for the King James Version (e.g., The New Brown-Driver-Briggs-Gesenius Hebrew and English Lexicon of the Old Testament, The New Englishmans Hebrew Concordance, The New Englishmans Greek Concordance and Lexicon, The New Thayer's Greek Lexicon, The Interlinear Greek-English New Testament, and Vine's Complete Expository Dictionary). Making use of Strongs predominant numbering system was one of the key considerations in choosing the KJV for the Restoration Study Bible.
CostEven though weve added 400 pages of notes and dictionaries to the 2nd edition, the donation amount of $25, plus shipping and handling, will remain the same (for those who order by phone or the Internet with Visa or Master Card, there will also be a small processing fee). If you are looking for a Bible that will help you understand and uncover the meaning of your Fathers Word, we encourage you to order your own copy of the RSB. You will not regret it!

3 high-paying dividend stocks on sale
What's better than a cheap, stable name that also has a generous payout? Not much.
Don't you just love dividend-paying stocks? You buy one and like magic they start sending you thank-you notes in the form of dividend payments.
Non-dividend stocks never send you thank-you letters. You may receive a letter from a class-action lawyer once in a while trying to shake down the company for a few dollars, but that's usually about it.
The only thing better than buying a high-yielding stock is buying a high-yielding stock on sale. The market is a fantastic place to find sales. We have to be extra careful buying stocks on sale, though. There's usually a reason people are selling but if you're willing to wait and be selective, fantastic deals abound.
Potash (POT)
Background: Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan, together with its subsidiaries, produces and sells fertilizers and related industrial and feed products primarily in the United States and Canada.
I could certainly have fun with this name, especially after writing on TheStreet Why Weed Isn't Legal and May Never Be, but I will stick to the investment thesis.
Potash gapped lower the last day of trading in July after a Russian producer ended its distribution contract with Belarus. Belarus is the biggest player in the global potash space, and effectively controlled the market the way De Beers (the good folks who brought us "A diamond is forever") controls the diamond market.
Instead of $800 or more per ton for potash, the fertilizer is worth about half that now. Lower prices result in lower profits for Potash.
The good news for you is the dust settled and the market fully priced in the price change. Also, that's one less risk hanging over investors' heads that is now effectively removed.
Earnings payout percentage: 33%
After the sell-off, the yield jumped to 4.7%, bringing it to my attention. I waited until the shares found support, and now it's relatively safe to stick your big toe in the water.
The average analyst target price for Potash is $37.93. Don't let a downgrade and/or lower price target announcement alarm you. A $3 or $4 price target reduction should have near zero impact based on the already-discounted shares.
The last reported short interest is paltry and without reason to consider it a meaningful influence at only 2% of the average trading float.
Barrick Gold (ABX)
Background: Barrick Gold engages in the production and sale of gold and copper. The company has a portfolio of 27 operating mines worldwide. It also holds interests in oil and gas properties located in Canada.
Price-to-book: 1.2
Earnings payout percentage: 40%
I have a lot of gold stocks popping up on my scanners lately. When an entire industry is declining, "value buys" are everywhere, only they're nowhere. The difference between catching a falling knife and a value buy is how close you come to the bottom when you enter.
If you buy too soon you can get stopped out, only to watch the stock recover and reward those who waited for a better deal. Wait too long and you can wind up trying to chase it higher, never a pleasant thing.
Barrick probably isn't at the exact bottom here, but in relative terms is worth looking at. I'm not a enormous fan of gold at the current price relative to inflation, but gold needs to fall another 20% before I consider the dividend to be at risk.
The average analyst target price for Barrick Gold is $22.68. Unlike most stock picks, I don't suggest pushing for more than the analyst target price. I think the correct play is to hold out for $14.90 a share, and use $19.80 as a profit target. Dividends received while waiting are icing on the cake.
Altria Group (MO)
Background: Altria manufactures cigarettes, smokeless products and wine in the United States and internationally. It offers cigarettes primarily under the Marlboro brand; smokeless tobacco products under the Copenhagen, Skoal, Red Seal, Husky, and Marlboro Snus brand names; cigars principally under the Black & Mild brand; and pipe tobacco.
I don't enjoy the smell of smoke, but I also don't feel we need all the laws we have either. One thing Big Tobacco has going for it is a low risk of government lawsuits. It turns out smokers don't cost states money after factoring in savings from lower expenses from the lower life expectancy. Cold, I know, but my job isn't to make moral judgments on the companies; rather, my role is to determine the profitability, risks and potential viability of the investment.
While Big Tobacco doesn't face as much domestic risk as previously thought of, world-wide risk is a giant unknown. Regulatory and civil risks are offset with changes in nicotine delivery. Electronic cigarettes, cigars and pipes are making inroads and have the potential to halt the decline in customer base.
In theory, one could make an argument that electronic smoking products could increase revenue and grow the customer base. That's more optimistic than I suggest you model for, and if it happens it's a bonus.
Price-to-bBook: 19.9
Earnings payout percentage: 55%
Altria investors are receiving a yield of 5%, and that's not quite enough. Hold out for a sub-$35 price because you probably can get it. An overall market drop alone should get us there. Look to enter around $34.90ish.
The average analyst target price for Altria Group is $37.50, and I believe $39 is reasonable within the next 12 months.
Almost zero desire by short-sellers to move against this stock. Short interest hardly moves the needle with only 0.9% of the float.
At the time of publication the author had no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

Do you really want to be in a market, when every time Bernanke and his cronies sneeze, the Dow plunges? Think about the next debt ceiling about to be reached in Sept.
If you *must* be in the markets, I agree, buy a good yielding dividend stock and hold your nose. Don't say you weren't warned, when you get the nosebleed (dividend cut).

Epic whiskers
In 1860, an 11-year-old girl wrote to Abe Lincoln, suggesting he grow a beard. He not only responded, he obliged.
"Hon A B Lincoln…
Dear Sir
My father has just home from the fair and brought home your picture and Mr. Hamlin's. I am a little girl only 11 years old, but want you should be President of the United States very much so I hope you wont think me very bold to write to such a great man as you are. Have you any little girls about as large as I am if so give them my love and tell her to write to me if you cannot answer this letter. I have got 4 brothers and part of them will vote for you any way and if you let your whiskers grow I will try and get the rest of them to vote for you you would look a great deal better for your face is so thin. All the ladies like whiskers and they would tease their husbands to vote for you and then you would be President. My father is going to vote for you and if I was a man I would vote for you to but I will try to get every one to vote for you that I can I think that rail fence around your picture makes it look very pretty I have got a little baby sister she is nine weeks old and is just as cunning as can be. When you direct your letter direct to Grace Bedell Westfield Chautauqua County New York.
I must not write any more answer this letter right off Good bye
Grace Bedell"
Lincoln responded a few days later:
"Miss Grace Bedell
My dear little Miss
Your very agreeable letter of the 15th is received — I regret the necessity of saying I have no daughters — I have three sons — one seventeen, one nine, and one seven years of age — They, with their mother, constitute my whole family — As to the whiskers, having never worn any, do you not think people would call it a piece of silly affectation if I were to begin it now?
Your very sincere well wisher,
A. Lincoln"
While he made no promises about the beard to Bedell, he stopped shaving and allowed the beard to grow not long after their exchange and was elected as the 16th president of the United States a few weeks later. On his inaugural train ride from Illinois to Washington, D.C., the president-elect stopped in Bedell's hometown of Westfield, N.Y., and asked to meet her.

The Raven Returns
edgar allan poe bicentennial celebration
Intro | Poe & Boston: 1809-1849 | The Lyceum Fiasco | Lowell & Poe | They Love Poe | Poe & Boston: 2009
Poe & Boston: 2009
Even in an article about why Boston should pay more attention to Poe, his middle name is mispelled!
Poe, January 28, 2007 He was our guy first, but Edgar Allen Poe dissed Boston and Boston returned the love. Now as his birthday is celebrated elsewhere and plans are made for his 2009 bicentennial, old grudges are back to haunt.
-The Boston Globe
The location of Edgar Allan Poe Square in Boston on the 1928 map. Redesign of area streets eliminated the original intersection of Broadway, Fayette, and Carver Streets that made up the square.
Not only was this plaque (left) erected at the shockingly recent date of January 19, 1989, but it is also inadequately celebratory and hanging in the wrong place.
Note the comment below from a January 28, 2007 news story about the street (actually just an alley) supposedly named after Poe in 1989.
Part of the chasm between Poe and Boston is physical—the house where most scholars think he was born no longer stands; the plaque commemorating his birth on Carver Street, outside Green's Luggage Shop at the fringe of the Theater District, suggests his birthplace is now an alley full of trucks servicing the state Transportation Building. (On Poe's birthday in 1989, that section of Carver Street was renamed Poe Way, but it appears even this gesture was ephemeral. The Carver Street signage remains today, and we could find no sign of Poe Way.)
- The Boston Globe
Edgar Allan Poe never lived in one city for long, and ever since he died and was buried in Baltimore in 1849, the city has claimed him as its own.
Cities Duel over Poe's Remains (September 7, 2008)
The one city that probably will never claim Poe is Boston. Though he was born there, Poe wrote disdainfully of the city's literary elite, and his birthplace does not appear among the 1,000-plus attractions on the city's tourism Web site.
- The New York Times
Be sure to check out the events to celebrate this bicentennial.
"The Raven Returns" will be on display in the lobby of O'Neill Library until January 26, 2009. Follow the links on the top of this page to enjoy some highlights of the exhibit.

Product Finder:
RTR Commish from Queens, NY
Had originally bought three 3D Battery operated pumps and returned them to by one additonal Diamond Pump. You need at least two 5 gallon buckets to collect and dump the water, but it does pump 20 GPM while puddle deep. When you get to appx 1/4 inch a bit slower, but you can dig a small hole and broom water in direction of the pump for maximum performance. Don't forget to get a pair of rubber boots, as you step into the middle of puddle to start pumping. Best to grease rod after each use, and open cyclinder to drain rocks and mud while cleaning instrument after each use. Will surely prolong the life of product. I tried everything in the past, but this product a homerun!!!!

(Toledo News Now) - In the past, when you bought a product with a mail-in rebate, you received a check in the mail. In most cases now, you get a prepaid debit card, but there is a big downside to them.
More and more cell phones come with mail-in rebates these days. Buy a phone for $200 and get $100 back. Sounds great. But there's a little secret to these rebates that companies would rather you not know. Rebate Now Comes On Card We've all seen signs and commercials advertising deep discounts on new cell phones "after mail-in rebate." They rarely give a rebate on the spot. The rebate now usually comes on a Visa or MasterCard. Susan Arnold found a great deal.
"There was a $100 rebate on the phone, which they sent to me in the form of a rebate card," she said. "They sent it to me on the first of April." She decided to wait and use the card on her upcoming vacation. Bad idea. What happened when she went to use the card?
"The card was expired," Arnold said. "The card expired in June." Turns out the card was valid for just three months. Dirty Little Secret That's the dirty little secret of many rebate cards. They are valid for just three to six months, as they don't fall under gift card laws that would require them to be valid longer. Good news: After contacting the provider, a spokeswoman agreed to reissue Arnold's card. But you can be sure thousands of these expire before they are used. Remember: Any time you get a rebate or gift card, leave it on the kitchen counter, next to the phone, or somewhere you will see it every day. Never tuck it away or it may expire before you get to it. As always, don't waste your money. Copyright 2012 Toledo News Now. All rights reserved.

As the threat of winter weather looms, a flood watch remains in effect for many parts of the FOX 5 viewing area through Thursday evening.
FOX 5 Storm Team meteorologist Joanne Feldman says some spots around north Georgia have received several inches of rain and could get more than an inch more on Wednesday as another heavy band of showers moves from west to east.
The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch for most of north Georgia. A Flood Warning is also in effect for Chattooga, Floyd and Forsyth counties.
More showers -- some heavy -- are expected Wednesday night and into Thursday. As temperatures drop, the NWS issued a Winter Storm Watch in effect from Thursday afternoon until Friday for the area north of a line from Carrollton to Atlanta to Jefferson.
Feldman says a light accumulation of snow is possible in the highest elevations of the northeast Georgia mountains. None is expected for the metro area.
Drivers should be wary of potential patches of black ice on overpasses and bridges overnight Thursday and into early Friday morning.

Retinal Disorders
Many vision problems involve the retina, the light-sensitive tissue that lines the back of the eye. These disorders cause gradual vision loss that progresses, or gets worse, over time. The following are some of the most common retinal disorders, with links to more information.
- Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) - the breakdown, or degeneration, of the area of the retina called the macula.
- Retinal detachment - the separation of the retina from the back of the eye.
- Retinitis pigmentosa - a group of hereditary eye disorders that affect the ability of the retina to sense light.

prolegomenonSyllabification: pro·le·gom·e·non
Pronunciation: /ˌprōləˈɡäməˌnän, -nən /
noun (plural prolegomena /-nə/)
A critical or discursive introduction to a book.
More example sentences
- After some elaborate prolegomena, the book follows a calendrical sequence, each poem dated and grouped by month so that the events of a hundred years follow a seasonal ebb and flow, not chronology.
- We have been attending to 'exists' and 'is' not for their own sake but purely as a prolegomenon to an ontological question, namely, that of existence.
- This first chapter is a necessary prolegomenon, but for the casual reader or one unfamiliar with the issues, it would prove hard going.
mid 17th century: via Latin from Greek, passive present participle (neuter) of prolegein 'say beforehand', from pro 'before' + legein 'say'.

"The American Scene Number 13: Tuesday in November" (1945)
An idealized portrayal of the electoral process and the 1944 U.S. presidential election, "Tuesday in November" reflects an impressive production pedigree including the likes of John Houseman as director and music composer Virgil Thomson. The film contains a concise lesson in American government using animated sequences by John Hubley.

General Information
Why Rome in 2014?
All roads continue to lead to Rome as the center of culture and political events. Because of its importance throughout the development of Western culture, Rome provides an exceptional vantage point for considering the flow of history. For anyone who seeks to understand the cultural context for the work of schools, Rome is an essential experience. The School of Education is particularly fortunate that Loyola University Chicago's own John Felice Rome Center can provide students with comfortable accommodations and excellent facilities for study and exploration.
Why consider a two-week program?
The full liberal arts education promoted by Loyola calls for study at the Rome Center to enable students to better understand the present through historical roots and to more fully appreciate the culture of contemporary America through the experience of living abroad. Since many students cannot devote an entire academic year or even a full semester to study in Rome, the School of Education has developed a two-week program. During this program, students take a specially designed course that uses the Eternal City and its rich resources as a dynamic classroom.
Courses Offered
During Summer Session I 2014 (May 18-31), the following undergraduate courses will be offered at the Rome Center:
- CIEP 360 - Interdisciplinary Workshop: Culture and Identity (Dr. Janis Fine)
(Satisfies the requirement for CPSY 342 and is an approved elective. See your advisor.)
- ELPS 302 - Philosophy of Education (Dr. Amy Shuffleton)
Click the course number to view the syllabus for that course in PDF format.
Please complete and submit your application (PDF) and deposit as soon as possible. Classes fill up early.
The usual tuition for a three-hour undergraduate course in the Summer Session applies: $2070.
The operation of this international study program involves expenses that are not normally associated with other courses taken on the Chicago campuses of Loyola University. In addition, services are provided to both facilitate the work of the course and to enhance the stay in Rome. These services include:
- Lunch and orientation at the Rome Center on the day of arrival
- Transportation pass for unlimited travel on buses and subways in Rome during entire stay
- The use of the internet in Rome for research and email access
- Program picnic
- Farewell Dinner with tour bus ride to a lovely restaurant along the Appian Way
- Entrance fees to the Jewish Ghetto Museum, the Vatican Museum/Sistine Chapel, the Coliseum, and the Roman Forum. The program fee also covers the cost of renting headsets for onsite instruction
- Papal Audience during Wednesday May 28th, 2014 at no additional cost
To cover these services and administrative expenses a program fee is assessed of $295
The room charge will be $50/night per person for a shared double room. Since the stay is 13 nights, the charge will be $650.
Students are expected to make their own travel arrangements to and from Rome. **Please do not make plane reservations until you have been notified that your class has sufficient enrollment. All students are expected to arrive at the Rome Center on Sunday May 18th in time for the opening program lunch at 1:30pm local time and Rome Center Orientation. Students are encouraged to arrange their travel to be present for that event.
Aside from the three meals that are provided as part of the program, meals are the responsibility of the individual student. There are two food services at the Rome Center: a café and a cafeteria. In addition, all rooms are furnished with refrigerators, and grocery stores are within walking distance of the Rome Center, although the Rome Center does not provide cooking facilities. Rome also provides excellent restaurants that are moderately priced. The program director will give students ample advice about selecting restaurants in Rome so that unexpected and inordinate costs are avoided. In general, a reasonable breakfast can be purchased for 5-6.50 Euros ($6.50-$8.50 USD) and a lunch or dinner between 10-15 Euros ($13-$20 USD).
Students who anticipate having completed a minimum of 30 semester credit hours by the end of spring semester 2014 with a cumulative GPA OF 2.75 or higher are eligible to apply for the Rome 2014 undergraduate program. The acceptance process starts with a submission of the application form and a payment of $295, to cover the program fee. Upon acceptance, a place is reserved for the applicant in the course of choice.
Students who are North American (USA, Canada, or Mexico) or European Union citizens are not required to secure student visas for participation in the two week Rome Program. Students who are not North American or E.U. citizens must contact Loyola's Office for International Programs to ascertain whether they will need a student visa. Please contact the OIP at (773) 508-3899 for any questions you may have regarding insurance and student visas. All students will need a valid passport to exit the United States. To apply or renew your passport visit http://travel.state.gov/content/passports/english/passports/new.html.
This process can take several weeks or months so begin the process as soon as possible. Note: The passport should be valid for at least three months beyond the period of stay.
All students and program associates participating in the Rome 2013 undergraduate program are required to purchase CISI Health Insurance through Loyola. To apply, please access Loyola's Global Travel Center webpage and scroll down to the "CISI Health Insurance" section and follow the instructions on the application process. The cost associated with this is approximately $35 since you will be in Rome for less than 30 days. When you apply and enter in your dates the exact amount will be calculated for you.
Should you have any questions about the health insurance application process, please contact Megan Lipps: email@example.com or (773)508-3899 and let her know that you are participating in the School of Education Rome Undergraduate Summer Program.

Hagel said "a dark cloud looms over this institution" with cuts ahead.
"Furloughs were the last thing I wanted to do, but I had to protect military readiness," Hagel said.
About 8,400 civilian employees at Fort Bragg are being furloughed for up to 11 days now through Sept. 30. The unpaid days off equal a 20 percent pay cut over the next three months. Local officials are worried about the potential impact to the area's economy.
Hagel says the Pentagon's number one priority is making sure the military is ready to protect the country. He says they are ready to do that, but that has led them to make some tough decisions on what else they have to cut.
He says next year the department of defense could face another 52 billion dollars in cuts which leaves the future uncertain.
"We're in this together, we'll come out of it together," said Hagel. He reassured the crowd that he and other leaders are looking at every option and doing everything they can to prevent future cuts.
" I suspect this is the most difficult time of your service, I know that, I accept that, I understand that, your leaders understand, but we have no choice but to get through it, and we will get through it." said Hagel

Opera in Cinema Presents The Teatro Alla Scala Production of Peter Grimes Live in HD, 5/24
Opera in Cinema/Emerging Pictures presents THE TEATRO ALLA SCALA PRODUCTION OF PETER GRIMES, LIVE in HD, starring John Graham-Hall, Susan Gritton, Christopher Purves, and Felicity Palmer, Thursday, May 24th, 2:00 p.m. at Big Cinemas Manhattan Theater, 239 East 59th Street. Running time is 175 minutes.
With its Opera in Cinema and Ballet in Cinema programs, Emerging Pictures leads in providing comprehensive alternative arts programming to American audiences. Other live and encore captured live performances this season include operas by Puccini and Verdi performed at London's Royal Opera House and the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona. There is also a full complement of LIVE HD simulcast ballet performances from Moscow's Bolshoi Theater and London's Royal Ballet. All are on full-size movie screens.
British composer Benjamin Britten described his opera Peter Grimes as "…a subject very close to my heart, the struggle of the individual against the masses. The more vicious the society, the more vicious the individual." Set in a drab fishing village, Peter Grimes tells the story of a man accused by his neighbors of committing unspeakable crimes, and the question of whether those accusations and their consequences are just. Britten's incredible score includes the Four Sea Interludes, instrumental music between scenes that perfectly expresses the mystery and pain at the heart of this opera. Starring John Graham-Hall, Susan Gritton, Christopher Purves and Felicity Palmer, with conductor Robin Ticciati in his debut at La Scala.

After seven increasingly lengthy novels, fans said goodbye to Harry Potter with the "happily ever after..." conclusion of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
Now it looks as though author J.K. Rowling has decided to give us one last look at The Boy Who Lived.
In a short story posted to her Pottermore website today, Rowling has resurrected her most beloved character, and the frail, frightened boy we came to know and love way back in 1998 is long gone.
The Harry of today is a 34-year-old married man with "threads of silver" in his hair and a fresh scar on his face as the result of his "top secret" work battling evil.
Rowling's agent has confirmed that there are no plans for a new Potter novel, but the story posted today (that takes the form of a tabloid article by gossip columnist Rita Skeeter) provides updates on several beloved characters from the franchise:

Jang Geun Suk was recently featured in AERA magazine.
The magazine hit the stores last August 06, and as far as I know the issue is sold out to almost every (online) store.
In his interview, he talked about his current drama "Love Rain." He also said something about his plans in the future, and many more. Here's one interesting part of the interview:
After around 10-months shooting, it was over on May 28th. Wondering he would relax after that, he hardly took a break and was busy for preparing his concerts and shooting CFs. Such a busy guy, Jang Keun Suk. What does he plan to take the next step?
JKS: I'll realize one of my dreams, 'a production of short films'. Without any limitations of time or adult situations, I want to produce a film satisfactory to me. That's why I decided only with my company's money, not with investors' one. Needless to say, I play a double role as Director and the lead actor. The script was already completed and I got the staff, too. I think I can launch the shooting this fall.
JKS: What I want to do comes out one after another and never ends. I want to become a figure whom my juniors adore me saying "I want to be like him" in five or ten yeas later. I'll do something big within 10 years. Therefore, I just keep running now.

Pennsylvania Integrated Pest Management
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is economical, effective as well as health and environmentally-sensitive.
IPM is a stepwise approach to pest management that combines accurate knowledge of the pest and level of potential harm with multiple tactics to prevent, reduce or eliminate pests.
IPM News
September 29, 2014PA IPM's Maria Gorgo-Gourovitch, latino community outreach coordinator, and Delmy Orellana-Baires, nutrition educator with Nutrition Links, Chester County Cooperative Extension, provided over 2,000 attendees health information on asthma, bed bugs and other topics in Spanish.
September 24, 2014Over 3,000 people registered for a recent webinar on bed bugs hosted by the StopPests in Housing Program of the Northeastern IPM Center. The webinar, "Lowering Costs with an In-House Bed Bug Prevention and Management Plan," is available at StopPests' website.
September 16, 2014Got stink bugs? If so, the federal government is asking you to count them over the next month beginning today. The smelly pests wreak havoc on crops and freak out homeowners when they come inside at this time of year looking for a warm place to spend the winter.
September 16, 2014An international team of researchers has designed decoys that mimic female emerald ash borer beetles and successfully entice male emerald ash borers to land on them in an attempt to mate, only to be electrocuted and killed by high-voltage current.
September 11, 2014If you happen to see a lot of bugs crawling around the Bryce Jordan Center, they aren't going to be calling any exterminators because it's Penn State's Great Insect Fair!

American Scientist has a long history of featuring authors from underrepresented groups in science. We support the philosophy that the value of diversity lies in creating a scientific community that is more creative and more inclusive of all ideas.
These issues are vitally important to the progress of science, so we were honored to have our associate editor Katie L. Burke invited to lead a discussion about women in science at ScienceOnline 2014 earlier this year. This conference focuses on the ways that science is conducted and communicated online. Many scientists now commonly use social media for public outreach, updates with colleagues, and even data collection.
For those of you following American Scientist on social media, you may have seen live Tweets and photos we posted on Facebook on the day of Dr. Burke's event. In case you missed it, or want to take a closer look, we've compiled a list of resources at http://www.americanscientist.org/issues/page/science-online.
Dr. Burke had been invited to lead the session at ScienceOnline because she had previously assembled a definitive collection of statistics about gender bias in science (linked at the page above). One study that she cited found that grant applications with a female principal investigator receive an average of about $80,000 less in funding. Another showed that although women receive about 50 percent of the doctorates in science, they make up only 21 percent of tenured professors in science.
The purpose of the session was not to lament the problem or point fingers, but to find constructive ways to address it. After gathering input from attendees, Dr. Burke helped to run an ideas session with illustrator Perrin Ireland of the Natural Resources Defense Council, who makes live sketches of conference talks and discussions. That collaboration yielded a whimsical but information-packed graphic (right) illustrating a number of proposed pathways that could help women succeed in science.
This conversation is ongoing, and everyone can contribute to it. Look for the hashtag #sciowomen on Twitter, and join in. Question not only the assumptions of others, but your own as well. Take the time to get informed about the data. Consider how you can support colleagues and students facing challenges. And most of all, figure out how to get involved and make a difference. The future of the scientific research endeavor depends on all of us.

Good morning!
We're looking at another day of wild winds across the Inland Northwest this morning and the chance for isolated snow showers.
This afternoon look for partly cloudy skies with a chance of snow--little to no accumulation. Highs will feel much cooler than low to mid 40s, because of wind chill.
Our windy conditions should carry us through the evening and overnight. Look for mostly cloudy skies and a slight chance of snow.
Friday--we end our work week on mostly dry conditions. Don't rule out a stray shower but otherwise look for unseasonably cool temps in the low 40s.

"Raleigh Pink Ribbon Ride"
A Motorcycle Ride Benefitting the
Pretty in Pink Foundation.
Over 200 photos of the 2013 ride (on Facebook) - Click Here
THANK YOU everyone for sponsoring or contributing to our ride. 100% of the net proceeds from this event will be donated to the Pretty in Pink Foundation. This organization helps women and men in our area who have already been diagnosed with breast cancer and are either uninsured or have limited health insurance benefits. These are women & men that don't qualify for government funded or assisted programs such as Medicare. Our donation will help these patients get the quality care and treatment they deserve and would otherwise not be able to afford.
Funds sponsored by the Pink Ribbon Ride have been used to establish breast cancer support fund for physician consultations for patients diagnosed with breast cancer called the Raleigh Pink Ribbon Ride Breast Cancer Consultation Fund.
The Pretty in Pink Foundation is a not-for-profit organization.
One in seven women either has or will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. Almost all of us know someone who has battled this disease or has been touched by it in some way. A staggering $8 billion is spent on breast cancer treatment each year!
Please show your support!
Your sponsorship or generous contribution to this worthy cause
will contribute to the success of this event and will be greatly appreciated!

CHICAGO (AP) -- A nephew of former Chicago Mayor Richard Daley will stand trial in February on a charge of involuntary manslaughter.
A Cook County Circuit Court judge on Tuesday set a Feb. 18 trial date for Richard J. Vanecko. The trial is expected to last more than a week.
Vanecko is charged in the 2004 death of David Koschman, who died days after he fell and struck his head during a fight with Vanecko outside a Chicago bar.
The case has generated widespread media attention, fueled in large part by stories in the Chicago Sun-Times. The stories raised questions about whether Chicago police and county prosecutors mishandled the case.
A special prosecutor said last week that no charges would be filed against police or prosecutors because a 3-year statute of limitations had expired.

Andrea Fraser: Men on the Line, KPFK, 1972
January 29, 2013, 7 p.m.
For Men on the Line, KPFK, 1972, Fraser reenacts a 1972 radio broadcast of a dialogue among four men as they discuss their sympathies, anxieties, and struggles with the burgeoning feminist movement. By revisiting a conversation that occurred 40 years ago and performing all of the roles, Fraser addresses the complexity of reconciling disparate realities and the ongoing struggle for gender equality. Men on the Line, KPFK, 1972, was originally commissioned by and performed as part of Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A., 1954–1980, a multi-museum collaboration that explored the Los Angeles art scene.
Fraser's work has been identified with performance, video, project-based art, context art, and institutional critique. She has presented projects, performances, and interventions in museums and exhibitions throughout Europe and North and South America. She was a founding member of the feminist performance group the V-Girls (1986–96), the project-based artist initiative Parasite (1997–98), and the cooperative art gallery Orchard (2005–08). She was also co-organizer, with Helmut Draxler, of Services, a "working-group exhibition" that toured eight venues in Europe and the United States between 1994 and 2001. Museum Highlights: The Writings of Andrea Fraser was published by MIT Press in 2005. Fraser is Professor of New Genres at UCLA's Department of Art and visiting faculty at the Whitney Independent Study Program.
Men on the Linewas originally produced by West of Rome, curated by Emi Fontana for the Pacific Standard Time Performance and Public Art Festival, and organized by the Getty Research Institute and LA><ART.

Iona Rozeal Brown: Battle of yestermore
April 5, 2013, 7 p.m.
Admission is free. Pre-registration encouraged.
A performance presented by the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and the Corcoran Gallery of Art in conjunction with the 2013 National Cherry Blossom Festival.
Washington, D.C., native iona ROZEAL brown extends the allegories of her paintings in her first work of live performance. Originally commissioned for the Performa 2011 festival in New York,battle of yestermore draws from the myth-based genres of Kabuki and Noh theater, as well as hip-hop culture and vogueing, made famous in the Harlem ballroom scene of the 1960s. This will be the debut performance of battle of yestermore in Washington, D.C.
Born in Washington, D.C., iona ROZEAL brown earned a B.Sc. in Kinesiological Sciences at the University of Maryland in College Park in 1991, a BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute in 1999, and in 2002, an MFA from Yale University.

Mary Coble: Deferral
August 7-10
Mary Coble's new performance, Deferral, addresses the Food and Drug Administration's policy of refusing blood donations from men who have had sex with men since 1977. Over four days in the Corcoran's Atrium, Coble and several gay men encode the curtains of an anatomical theater with text and images from blood donor campaigns, regulations, and debates. The artist writes using her own blood, drawn onsite, while her collaborators work with thread as a stand in for their "illegal" blood. Over the course of the performance, their actions create an increasingly tangled web, enveloping and impeding their shared space while reclaiming the image of the male hero.
Through performance, video, and installation, Mary Coble explores the limits of her own body's physical abilities while identifying and challenging social limitations and regulations. Past performances include binding her breasts continually with duct tape, inscribing the names of queer hate-crime murder victims on her body with inkless tattoos, and using flag semaphore to convey the difficulties of human connection and communication.
Coble has performed as part of Commitment Issues, FADO Performance Art Network, Toronto (2011); Global Feminisms, Brooklyn Museum of Art, New York (2007); and Performa 05, Artists Space, New York (2005). She has had solo exhibitions at the Overgaden Institute of Contemporary Art, Denmark (2012) and Galerie Nina Menocal in Mexico City (2007). Her work has recently been included in exhibitions such as re.act.feminism #2—a performing archive at the Museum for Contemporary Art, Roskilde, Denmark (2012); Surface Tension: the Future of Water at Eyebeam Center for Art and Technology, New York (2012); Lost and Found: Queerying the Archive at Nikolaj Center of Contemporary Art in Copenhagen, Denmark (2009); and Uncommon Beauty at the Brooklyn Museum of Art (2008). Coble's work is in the collections of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the National Museum of Women in the Arts. Originally from North Carolina, Coble received her BFA from University of North Carolina at Greensboro and her MFA from George Washington University. She is currently a professor at the Funen Art Academy in Odense, Denmark, and lives in Copenhagen.
Renée Rendine: Billow
April 2, 7 p.m.
Drawing on the labor of insects as a metaphor for human behavior, Renée Rendine's work poetically addresses themes of metamorphosis, growth, and decay. Her work typically involves sculptural, cocoon-like costumes—constructed from man-made materials and laboriously woven, braided, or sewn—which the artist inhabits and transfigures through repetitive action. In a new performance titled billow, Rendine will use movement and moisture to transform an aqueous structure that will fill the North Atrium.
Renée Rendine received a BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art and an MFA from Virginia Commonwealth University. She was the recipient of a Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Fellowship in 2000, and awarded a fellowship to study in Italy by the Atlantic Center for the Arts the same year. Her work has been shown at Ethan Cohen Gallery in Beacon, New York, Arlington Arts Center, Kim Foster Gallery in New York, and Hemphill Fine Arts in Washington, D.C. Publications include Sculpture Magazine, Surface Design Journal, The New York Times, and the Washington Post. Rendine currently teaches at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore.
