YORKVILLE - Esmark officials wanted to rekindle this town's steel plant as the Ohio Cold Rolling Co. by spring, but they now blame the "fiscal cliff negotiations" for unexpected delays.
"The current steel market conditions and economic uncertainty are two mitigating factors affecting our plans and activities," said company spokesman Bill Keegan. "There were also broader market concerns over the end-of-year fiscal cliff negotiations that forced buyers to delay new orders until there was more clarity for 2013."
"We are committed to restarting the Yorkville facility in an orderly process and, hopefully, in a less volatile steel market."
Esmark spent $4.7 million to purchase the Yorkville mill as part of RG Steel's bankruptcy and liquidation. After Esmark addressed environmental issues at the site, United Steelworkers Local 1223 members voted 194-24 to accept a new contract in hopes of getting back to work early this year.
USW 1223 President Jerry Conners said the average employee wage in the Esmark deal is $21.64 per hour, down from about $26 per hour under the last RG agreement. Though he said workers were not pleased "to go backward on their wages," he noted most realized they would have to make some sacrifices to see that the Ohio Cold Rolling startup is a successful venture.
"It was also important to take the necessary time to negotiate a final collective bargaining agreement with the local union that worked for both parties," said Keegan.
"We certainly understand that there has been speculation about the current status of the Yorkville plant. As we have said previously, there are a number of important factors that are in play at this time, some of which are out of our control."
Keegan said other issues contributing to Esmark's difficulties are:
Ensuring commitments on product supply.
The late entry into the annual tin plate contract negotiations process.
The "effect of low-priced foreign imports on the market."
"It's reasonable to assume that these factors - and market volatility - all contributed to our current situation," he added.

5 Real Princesses Too Badass for Disney Movies
Over the years Disney has gotten a lot of grief for its "inaccurate even for a cartoon" interpretations of historical heroes like Mulan and Pocahontas and Lilo. And it's all just so unnecessary; history is full of royal women who kicked all kinds of ass.
Although some of these stories would have to be toned down a bit ...
#5. Isabella, the She-Wolf of France
The Princess:
If you've seen Braveheart, you know this lady. It was her:
One hair-reduction treatment away from a gold bikini.
She was the French princess under the evil king and she, in the world according to Mel Gibson, had sex with ... you guessed it, Mel Gibson. But, in the real world, William Wallace was not only too damn dead to have fathered a kid with the woman, but Princess Isabella was so damn deadly that she eventually earned the nickname "She-Wolf of France" for all the new assholes she tore England.
Isabella began her life as a wealthy French princess, betrothed at the age of 12 to her very gay husband, Edward. And for a while there, Isabella played along as nicely as one could expect for the tween wife of a homosexual guy, even making an alliance with her husband's boyfriend. It wasn't until Edward got a new boyfriend that the shit hit the fan.
Caption writers in the 14th century had a much tougher job.
It started when Edward, Isabella and their entourages were mucking around after a failed battle in Scotland, and Edward decided to split. With his army. While the Scottish army was heading in her direction. Before you knew it, Isabella was surrounded by hostile forces and it took a couple of her knights stealing boats to get her out of the jam. So, that was bad.
And then, on her return home she found Edward had confiscated her lands, taken over her house, put her staff in jail and given custody of her children to her political enemies.
To be fair, her children were tiny-headed monsters.
The Badass:
Isabella went to France to regroup. And by "regroup" we mean raise a navy and an army and nab her own boyfriend, because why should Edward have all the fun? In 1326, Isa-rebella and her army sneaked over to England, where they were joined by multiple factions who were also pissed at Edward and his boyfriend, Hugh. Edward and Hugh saw the jig was up, so they fled. Within weeks they were both arrested and brought back to Isabella.
"This ... is probably about the lack of sex, right?"
What happened next is up for debate. Hugh's dad, who was Edward's adviser and Isabella's main political enemy, was captured and sentenced to be dragged by a horse, hanged and decapitated. And he was the lucky one. Hugh himself was also dragged by a horse, hanged until mostly dead, disemboweled and then decapitated. His body parts were cut up and sent to towns all over England and his head was displayed on the London Bridge.
We bet a lot more people would vote if shit like this happened in American politics.
Edward's disposal was a little more tricky. After all, he still had supporters, and Isabella's grip on the throne was pretty shaky. So she just locked him away. And then he "died." "Accidentally." A generation after Edward's death, an English historian named Geoffrey le Baker claimed the king was definitely murdered. Big deal, right? Lots of kings have been murdered. Not this way, though. According to Baker, who allegedly got the story from Edward's murderers, the king was stabbed with a red hot poker. In the rectum.
The really cool stories never make it into the illuminated manuscripts.
Maybe this isn't the best story for Disney treatment after all.
#4. Touch Princess Chiomara, Lose Your Head
The Princess:
Back in the days when Rome was conquering everything, they came across a tribe of people who were next in line to be conquered. The Romans captured a particularly beautiful tribal woman named Chiomara, who by the way was the wife of the chief.
At this point, a Roman centurion proceeded to violate her. You know what we mean when we say "violate," right? Of course you do, you're not stupid.
Rape was only the third favorite thing for a Roman to do after mass murder and sex with 12-year-old boys.
Even in the ancient world rape was a pretty shameful affair, so her assailant tried to ease his guilt with a deal. He offered to send her home if somebody paid him a gold ransom, which is kind of like Jaws demanding Amity Island to pay it for the privilege of chomping down on residents.
The Badass:
Here's the scene: The tribe agrees to pay the gold. Chiomara's captor brings her to the designated drop-off to get his ransom from her tribesmen. While counting the gold, the chief's wife gives a little nod, or, according to one historian, gives a little chit chat in her native language. Whatever she did, it translated into "Cut his fucking head off" to her rescuers. And they did it.
That casual attitude to decapitation explains why these litter our museums.
So, at this point, you'd think poor Chio's had enough. That she's been through some 'Nam style war trauma and she's probably ready to get back to her home and family and forget about the whole thing. But you'd be wrong. Head wrong.
That's because she picks up the bloody head of her Roman rapist and carries it in her dress all the way home. And upon seeing her husband, she throws the noggin at his feet like some kind of rapper dropping his mike, declaring, "Only one man who has lain with me shall remain alive."
That's the sound of thousands of men desperately trying to recall all their ex-girlfriends.
Then they presumably had sex.
#3. Rani Lakshmi Bai Brings Her Toddler to War
The Princess:
Rani Lakshmi Bai had two things in common with most Disney princesses: a dead mother and spunk. Lakshmi Bai was born in India in 1835, and her dad worked for a prime minister, so she was raised in a royal setting. But unlike most princess types, Lakshmi Bai wasn't content to just learn needlework and curtsy etiquette. Instead, she spent her youth studying swordsmanship, archery and how to use guns, and also how to find the tightest yellow jumpsuits. Clearly this is all going to come into play later.
Oh yeah, this is definitely a Rufus Wainwright moment.
Lakshmi Bai was married to her Prince Charming at age 12 (again -- yeah, it was a different time) and they adopted a son. But then her husband the raja died soon after. At this point a guy named Lord Jackass cited the Doctrine of Lapse as justification for seizing the rani's lands. According to the British government (who was occupying India at the time), the princess and her son weren't of royal blood, so the throne was empty.
Big mistake.
Also a mistake was riding a toy pony and brandishing a pipe cleaner.
The Badass:
While emotionally recovering from the trauma of losing a husband while also still being a child herself, Rani Lakshmi Bai said "Fuck it" and became a freedom fighter. Her first move was to recruit an army that allowed lady soldiers. Next up, fighting the British! She took her role so seriously that she reportedly went into battle with her adopted son strapped to her back, presumably to drop him off at soccer practice after each fight.
Weirdly, he never got put in reserve.
Rani Lakshmi Bai, "the most dangerous of all the rebel leaders," was eventually killed during the Battle of Gwalior. According to a British report of the battle, she died "firing at the man" who had shot her in the back ... hopefully while Raja Jr. was at the babysitter's.

Thanks for your continued support and wonderful comments......see you on the blogosphere soon~ hope you have a blessed week and ~ as always thanks for visiting and reading :)
One of our favorite dipping sauces is this Sweet Peach Bourbon, I have tried this with many different meals.
Sweet peach glaze over chicken, pork, ham or salmon grilled , baked, fried anyway even used in a slow crocker.. just about every way to cook this sauce is delicious. Use as a dipping sauce on the side, or for basting and just as a marinade...so versatile, you will find several uses after one try. Another delicious dipping sauce for fried chicken bites or chicken tenders..are a favorite. Never waste those fabulous fresh or canned peaches....this will always be the perfect solution!
¾ cup of peach preserves
1/3 cup of bourbon
1/3 cup of your favorite fruit vinegar
1 tablespoon of lime juice
½ teaspoon of cinnamon
½ teaspoon of ground cloves.
In a saucepan over medium heat stir together all ingredients stirring constantly until mixture thickens. Brush the mixture on your ham, pork roast, or ribs during baking.

Our decadent democracy
WASHINGTON — Connoisseurs of democratic decadence can savor a variety of contemporary dystopias. Because familiarity breeds banality, Greece has become a boring horror. Japan, however, in its second generation of stagnation is fascinating. Once, Japan bestrode the world, jauntily buying Rockefeller Center and Pebble Beach. Now Japanese buy more adult diapers than those for infants.

My toddler sleeps well at night, its getting him to bed part is really frustrating. The main problem is that he won't let me leave the room until he falls asleep. He is not scared to be alone, he just wants me to be there. The problem is that, he can take 2 hours go to sleep. If he wants to stay awake until he falls asleep, that is fine by me, but I want to be able to walk out of the room without him throwing a fit. Any suggestions?
Tell the kid to go sleep alone after your "good night" procedure of reading books etc., then leave. Now you're going from a Sleeping While You're There routine to a Sleeping Alone routine, and every change in life will cause the kid to readjust, understandably -- the kid perceives the change in routine strongly (kids love routines, because they guide them in life when they need a lot of guidance).
Now, this phase might take as little as 2 nights, and will be accompanied by crying. You can go back into the room, but increase the periods in which you do. If the kid's crying, this will get less and less, and in around a day or two the kid will have gotten it and be able to sleep alone.
Remember, a kid sleeping alone will also be able to sleep more restful in night, because all humans wake up multiple times at night; the big difference is that some people -- some kids! -- have problems finding back to sleep alone. Solve the problem of having the kid go to sleep alone in the evening, and you might solve this problem too.
For my parenting, the hard part was not to let the kid cry for a bit during this day or two -- the hard part was always trying to prevent my wife from entering every 5 minutes. Entering the room during the crying will affirm the crying, and keep this Change Phase go on forever; bad for the parents, but even worse for the kid. The kid will accept as normal what you think is normal, so explain to the kid, then do it and believe in it. Good luck!
Just do it!!!!!! Leave the room. Every time he gets up to find you don't talk to him or hug him just put him back into bed.
Be sure he has lots of stuffed animals and books and let him know that he is welcome to play and read IN BED until he falls asleep but he is now old enough to go to sleep on his own. Let him know you will check on him in 10 minutes and then do it. Checking on him would mean coming in, saying good night again and leaving. (This may entice more crying, in which case stop this part) DO NOT come in because he is crying.
This is what we have done. It is akin to 'crying it out' but at this age they can understand what they can do and why you are doing it.
All of the methods mentioned may work for some, but if your child is very active, it probably won't. Mine gets 2 - 3 hours of nap time a day and that rejuvenates them, so the only way I got him to sleep a little faster was to take him to bed a little later, so instead of 8 - 8:30, I take him to bed around 9:30. This seems to do the trick with him going to sleep. On days were he does not nap, sometimes he will fall asleep between 7 and 8.
If you come in to calm down tears, you do it without words: just cuddling (as they stay in bed -- no picking up!) and patting and sushing.
It sounds like you need to read Richard Ferber's Solve Your Child's Sleep Problems. Though, I believe @Freed's answer is very close to what Ferber would recommend in this case. Yes, there will be crying---there may even be a tantrum or two. But, you will be establishing mutual respect between you and your child. After the short period of tension, he will be able to sleep better and you will be more relaxed and more in control of your own life.
We've used Ferber's techniques on both of our children and it was one of the best decisions I think we've made as parents.

Grayson Lawson, 8, has never been to the Kentucky Oaks nor stepped foot on the track at Churchill Downs. Neither has Lindsay Payne, 14.
On Friday, the girls will do both when they participate in the Survivors Parade presented by Kroger, an honor given to 138 female cancer survivors including, for the first time, two children.
"We're the first kids that get to walk around the track in the parade," said Lindsay, who was diagnosed with leukemia when she was 2. "I'm pretty excited."
Grayson is, too. "My Aunt Dee Dee, she wrote a story about me (as part of the parade's nomination process) and I found out I was in the parade. It makes me feel special."
That's always been the point.
Prior to 2012, the Survivors Parade served as an inspiring way to honor breast cancer survivors on Oaks. The day carries a "ladies first" theme anyway, so the philanthropic addition of the procession became instantly popular with attendees. But then the Churchill Downs marketing started to receive requests to celebrate any woman who has fought the disease, regardless of type.
"When our female fans told us that cancer affects their lives in many different ways, we listened and responded with an opportunity for all of our fans to get involved in supporting the research and prevention efforts of the many types of cancers that need our attention," said Churchill Downs Racetrack President Kevin Flanery.
In addition to the Survivors Parade and the pink-attire encouraged dress code, for every person in attendance on Oaks, Churchill Downs will donate $1 to Stand Up To Cancer, an organization that raises awareness and funds for research. "We think this is a really strong fit as Stand Up To Cancer seeks to accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and our exciting day of racing can help put them on the fast track to do just that," Flanery said.
The track will also donate $1 from each sale of the Oaks Lily, the official drink of the Kentucky Oaks, to Horses and Hope. Founded in 2008 by Kentucky First Lady Jane Beshear and the Kentucky Cancer Program, Horses and Hope helps provide breast cancer awareness, education and early detection and treatment referral in Kentucky's horse racing industry.
Earlier this week, Grayson and Lindsay met for the first time at Nanz & Kraft in St. Matthews, where they posed for photos with The Voice-Tribune while standing in front of dozens of blooming lilies, the official flower of the Kentucky Oaks. Grayson, a third grader from Spencer County Elementary, giggled and chatted easily as she sat in the sparkly pink dress she'll wear Friday.
"We've been blessed," said her mother Donna Lawson, as she watched her young daughter play with a fresh rose. "We did not have to go through any type of treatment (once the cancerous tumors were removed)."
"I'm happy I'm cancer free," Grayson said.
Lindsay's mom, Becky Bundy, recalled how her daughter underwent chemotherapy, full body radiation, a relapse and then a transplant. "We looked at it as, OK there's the problem and there's the solution. The two other kids who were going through the same thing didn't survive. If I knew then what I know now, I would have been upset."
Lindsay is now cancer free, but she must go back for regular check ups. The treatments stunted her growth and have affected her hair, something her Jeffersonville High School classmates have noticed.
"At school people say stuff to me because I'm so short; I'm 4-feet-11 and a half. They make fun of my hair, too," the ninth grader said quietly. "I usually get upset and mad. I try to stop them. Some of my friends will tell them I had cancer. There's people who say, 'She's short and bald,' but they don't know me."
Becky Bundy sat up in her chair. "Her friends defend her pretty good. Not everybody's affected (by cancer) the same. I think what people forget is this is her life."
Donna Lawson wiped away tears as she listened to the mother and daughter sitting across the table. "Why are you crying, Mom?" Grayson asked.
"Because it's really hard to hear," Donna Lawson replied.
Grayson's eyes lit up and she scooted nearer to Lindsay. "Do you want to be my friend? Maybe we could walk in the parade together. … You know, if we fight cancer together, we can win – yay!"
"Sure," Lindsay said. "I'll be your friend."

I am wondering if there's another way to convert raster data (ex: DEM) into regularly sampled points. I've used
Raster to Point under ArcToolbox previously, but if the raster data is huge, that's a lot of points! Is there a way to specify the number of points or to specify the cell width and height so they're nicely spread out? I am aware of the
Create a Fishnet tool, but that doesn't seem to be working for me at the moment. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
I am wondering if there's another way to convert raster data (ex: DEM) into regularly sampled points. I've used
Alternatively, you could proceed as followed:
The key here is the aggregation factor which controls the degree of generalization of your input data, e.g. the spacing of the resulting sampling points.
If you have Spatial Analyst, here's what I would suggest:
The output will be a point feature class, with the sampled raster values as attributes.
EDIT: In fact, I think step 2 can be omitted if you use the "Create Label Points" option in the Create Fishnet tool. (I'm assuming the label points are created as centroids.)
You can also resample your raster to different cell size and then use raster to points. All depends on what do you want receive as final product.

5 Celebrities Who Got Famous by Being Obsessed Fanboys
Right now there are kids all over the world wearing their favorite band's T-shirt and strumming an oddly sized air guitar in front of their mirror, nursing implausible dreams of some day getting to take the stage. Real life never works out that way, of course -- liking something a lot in no way guarantees you'll grow up to be any good at it. The closest we'll ever get to our idols is when their bodyguards rough us up for trying to get an autograph.
Most of the time, anyway. Sometimes you get stories like ...
#5. The Avid Gamer Who Wound Up in the Game
Started Out As:
Seth Killian, an ordinary, nerdy kid who just happened to really, really freaking love Street Fighter.
But Became:
A freaking character in Street Fighter IV, the main boss "Seth" ...
It's a damn good thing his name wasn't Mortimer.
... and also a Capcom employee.
Admit it: When you were 10 years old, a lot of you thought that if you got really good at Mario, some day they'd let you work at Nintendo. That was, of course, before life slapped you in the face and you realized that playing a lot of video games prepared you for nothing but a life of playing more video games.
But then we have Seth Killian. He was one of millions of rabid Street Fighter II players back when the series became huge. Only he took it a bit more seriously than most; while likely defying his parents' every attempt to find him a real hobby, he got so good at the game that he began playing it competitively and eventually started organizing his own tournaments.
Via Giantbomb.com
Though he never quite mastered the beard-growing part of the game.
At this point, he tried to get in touch with Capcom to convince them to officially sponsor the events, but they repeatedly refused him, apparently because in those days video game companies didn't want to associate themselves with the bunch of nerds who bought their stuff.
Still, Killian persisted with developing the seemingly most dead-end skill set in existence. But years on, Capcom, after a change in management, started singing a different tune. They contacted their biggest fan and offered him a job. Jaded by years of brick-wall silence, Killian turned them down. That was when they told him what game they wanted him working on: a little project called Street Fighter IV. At this point, his pants probably flew straight off his body through the force of him shitting them.
Today, Seth Killian is strategic director, online & community, and special combat adviser for Capcom games, although his friends call him "S-Kill." Not only is he helping design the games that defined his childhood, but those who have played Street Fighter IV probably know that the main antagonist and final boss is a blue badass named after Seth:
Via Streetfighter.wikia.com
And modeled after his exact body.
We like how they didn't make him the hero of the game at all. We should also note that in the game, Seth's character's lines include "Bow your head before me, this won't take long" and "When I'm finished, I will be the sole survivor of this world."
Uh ... are you trying to tell us something there?
#4. The Harry Potter Fan Who Became Luna Lovegood
Started Out As:
A costumed 11-year-old kid standing in line for an autographed copy of the latest Harry Potter novel.
Via Drogheda Independent
Those glasses are tattooed on there.
But Became:
One of the stars of the films.
That goofy kid with the Harry Potter scar drawn on her forehead there is Evanna Lynch, who fans of the Potter movies know later went on to play Luna Lovegood. As a kid, Lynch was such a hardcore fan that she made the papers for it. She was just a random Irish schoolgirl back then, but made the news because her plan to camp out for the release of Order of the Phoenix got interrupted when she had to be hospitalized. The hospital and her family agreed to let her leave her bed for an hour so she could dress up in costume and stand in line for a signed copy. Yeah, Harry Potter is big over there.
Ha! They like reading. What a bunch of assholes.
Lynch was one of those fans who made her parents a little uneasy -- she named her cats after characters in the books, and her room was so covered in Potter posters that they blocked out the light.
So, several years later, when the casting call came up for the film version, Lynch naturally showed up to try out ... along with approximately every other teenage girl within a thousand miles. The line for the audition stretched for a dozen blocks and consisted of upwards of 15,000 shrieking potential Lunas. But one shy Irish girl had media-worthy fangirl power working for her.
Lynch astounded the casting agents with her interpretation, but it was her attention to detail that really won them over. She made sure to dress up as quirky as her spaced-out character, even making herself a pair of radish earrings that the filmmakers thought were so Luna that they let her wear them in the film.
Via Harrypotter.wikia.com
"I also got high as balls every day before shooting. It's called Method."
Since then, Evanna Lynch has been praised as one of the standout performers in a series of movies that star some of the most prominent British actors in the business. Maybe they would have done better if they'd practiced their lines with a cat named Dumbledore.
#3. The Kid Who Joined the A-Team
Via Toplessrobot.com
Started Out As:
A kid in the 1980s who was really, really into The A-Team.
Via TV Tropes
He's the one who's not a cake.
Note: He wasn't celebrating his own birthday in that picture -- he was celebrating B.A. Baracus' birthday.
But Became:
"Howling Mad Murdock" in the movie reboot 25 years later.
Via The-ridges.net
They called him "Howling Mad" because he once skinned and wore a prostitute.
Even if you don't recognize the name Sharlto Copley, you're probably familiar with his most famous role: Wikus, the unconventional hero of District 9. What you also might not know is that he's not an actor.
Not really, anyway. He was just the best friend of the director, Neill Blomkamp, and pulled off his amazing performance by basically being himself and improvising every single line on the spot.
But Copley's life-long ambition was never to star in a cult sci-fi film. As a kid, he had a different obsession: The A-Team. If you didn't grow up in the 1980s, it's hard to understand what a big deal the show was for a while. And like everyone on this list, Copley took it above and beyond. At school, he and his group of friends formed their own A-Team in the playground, and even defeated a rival A-Team, presumably demoting them to B-Team. Oh, and he got a Mr. T cake on that character's fictional birthday.
Ever since then, Mr. T wears a gold plate and spoon around his neck. Just in case.
But of course the show eventually ended and was relegated to the category of "one of those embarrassing '80s things." And like every kid, Copley had to grow up and accidentally stumble into the lead role of a $30 million action sci-fi classic. OK, so not like every kid.
Anyway, it was during the promotion of District 9 that Copley heard about a project that, let's face it, was always kind of inevitable -- the big-budget Hollywood remake of The A-Team. And they hadn't yet cast the role of Copley's favorite character, Howling Mad Murdock. Copley knew that his childhood self would fly forward in time just to punch him in the balls if he didn't go for that role.
Honestly, after seeing this picture, we would have done the punching for him.
So he did exactly what he'd just spent the past few months doing -- he improvised. Summoning his childhood mastery of Murdock's character, he recorded an audition tape in his hotel room, which was mostly him as Murdock messing around with an invisible dog. His portrayal didn't even match the direction that they were going to take with the character in the movie, but after Dwight Schultz, the original actor behind Murdock, saw the tape, he was reduced to tears of laughter and insisted that Sharlto Copley was the man for the role.
To sum up, Copley spent his childhood years playing The A-Team in the schoolyard, and 25 years later was paid millions to do the same thing, and then roll down the red carpet in a tank.

Ovarian epithelial cancer is a disease in which malignant cells form in the tissue covering the ovary. This is one type of cancer that affects the ovary. Women who have a family history of ovarian cancer are at an increased risk of developing ovarian cancer.
Ovarian cancer is hard to detect (find) early because usually there are no symptoms. Some women who have early stage ovarian cancer may have symptoms such as vague gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort, pressure in the pelvis, pain, swelling of the abdomen, and shortness of breath. Most of the time, there are no symptoms or they are very mild. By the time symptoms do appear, the cancer is usually advanced.
When found in its early stages, ovarian epithelial cancer can be cured in many patients.
Patients with ovarian cancer are treated at our Gynecologic Cancer Unit. You can also review the tabs at top of this page for information on ovarian cancer symptoms and risks, diagnosis, and treatment.
The ovary contains three types of tissue, and each type can develop a unique kind of cancer.
Epithelial ovarian cancer, the most common form of ovarian cancer, begins in the cells covering the ovaries. These tumors can be classified as:
PPC is a rare cancer closely related to epithelial ovarian cancer. Other names for this cancer include extra-ovarian (meaning outside the ovary) primary peritoneal carcinoma (EOPPC), or serous surface papillary carcinoma. PPC develops in cells from the lining of the pelvis and abdomen (the peritoneum), which are very similar to cells on the surface of the ovaries.
Ovarian germ cell tumors develop from the cells that produce the ova, or eggs, within the ovary. Most germ cell tumors are benign but about 5% are cancerous; these are most frequently seen in teenage girls or young women. Types of germ cell tumors include:
About 5% to 7% of ovarian cancers are stromal tumors, which begin in the connective tissue cells of the ovary. More than half are found in women older than 50, but about 5% of stromal tumors occur in young girls. Types of malignant stromal tumors include granulosa cell tumors (which account for the majority of stromal tumors), granulosa-theca tumors, and Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors (which are usually considered low-grade cancers). Thecomas and fibromas are non-malignant stromal tumors.
An ovarian cyst is a collection of fluid inside an ovary that will usually disappear after a few months. Your doctor may order tests to learn more about your cyst if you aren't ovulating, if the cyst is large, or if it doesn't go away on its own. A small number of ovarian cysts turn out to be malignant; surgery may be needed to diagnose these.
Following a physical exam and medical history, your doctor will order blood tests to assess your red and white blood cells, as well as the amount of hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen, in the red blood cells. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy may also be performed. Using this information, your physician will be able to determine the type and stage of MDS.
The stages of myelodysplastic syndromes are:
Protective factors which may decrease risk of ovarian cancer, according to the PDQ® database, include:
If you have a symptom that suggests ovarian cancer, your doctor needs to determine whether it is due to cancer or some other cause. For example, you may have an ovarian cyst, a borderline tumor (also known as a tumor of low malignant potential), an adnexal mass, or endometriosis.
You may have one or more of the following tests and examinations:
Ovarian cancer stages are used to describe the size of a tumor, whether it has spread beyond the ovary, and, if so, to what extent. Staging is done using results of a surgical biopsy and can also involve results from other tests, such as imaging or blood tests. The information gathered from the staging process determines the stage and grade of the disease, which is vital for determining the best course of treatment.
According to the National Cancer Institute, the stages of ovarian cancer are:
Grading refers to the appearance of the cancer cells when they are looked at under the microscope as compared to normal cells. The grade gives an idea of how quickly the cancer may develop.
Your doctor may also order additional tests to find out whether the cancer has spread. These may include a computed tomography (CT) scan, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a chest X-ray and/or a lower GI series of X-rays of the colon and rectum, or a colonoscopy to determine if the cancer has spread to the rectum or colon.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) -- A former Topeka convenience store partner charged in a break in and beating, gets more time to find an attorney.
Monroe Lockhart appeared in court without counsel on Wednesday (6/13). Lockhart told Judge Mark Braun he was waiting for a Kansas Supreme Court ruling on a motion to stay the proceedings, and a motion to reinstate Billy Rork as Lockhart's attorney.
Braun told Lockhart he'd been in contact with the Supreme Court, and said Lockhart's requests had been denied.
Braun rescheduled Lockhart's preliminary hearing to June 27th, saying if no council was hired by then, that Lockhart would represent himself.
Prosecutors say Lockhart entered a woman's southeast Topeka home last November, beat her and ordered her burned with a knife.
Co-defendant Jacob Barnett, pleaded guilty to all six charges, including aggravated burglary and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Charges were dropped against a third man, Anthony Talbert.
Lockhart was the managing partner of the former Mo's Express Convenience Store in Hudson Crossing.
The developer of the property, Corey Brown, was found dead in January. No one has been charged in his death.

Every matrix $A\in SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ induces a self homeomorphism of $S^1\times S^1=\mathbb{R}^2/\mathbb{Z}^2$. For different matrices these homeomorphisms are not homotopic, as the induced map on $\pi_1(S_1\times S_1)$ is given by $A$ (w.r.t the induced basis).
So I am wondering, whether a similar construction also works for other spheres than $S^1$. So is there any non-obvious self-homeomorphism of $S^2\times S^2$ (I know i can use degree $-1$ maps in any choice of coordinates / flip the coordinates /compose such maps).

The DRBC's Delaware River Biomonitoring Program began in 2001 and is responsible for the development and implementation of methodologies for assessing ecosystem health and biological water quality criteria to support evaluation of Delaware River water quality. The Biomonitoring Program's guiding body is the Biological Advisory Subcommittee (BAS) of the Water Quality Advisory Committee (WQAC) and Monitoring Advisory Committee (MAC).
DRBC Delaware River Biomonitoring Program 2014 Quality Assurance Project Plan (pdf 359 KB)
Each year, typically during August and September, commission staff collect samples at 25 riffle habitat sites from the upper 200 miles of the Delaware River, from Hancock, N.Y. to just above the head of tide at Trenton, N.J. Conditions sampled look at the diversity and health of the aquatic life community: benthic macroinvertebrates, benthic periphyton (alga), and habitat characteristics of the Delaware River.
Samples are analyzed by the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pa.; data will be used to create an Index of Biological Integrity, a scientific tool used to identify impacts to the health of biological systems.
The Biomonitoring Program also gathers information on other significant natural resources of the Delaware River Basin, such as fisheries, aquatic plants, mussels, and invasive species (both aquatic and riparian plants and animals). We also support the member states and the U.S. EPA in their biological monitoring surveys. Recently we have begun to develop procedures and guidance for biological assessment of natural gas development impacts in the northern part of the Delaware River watershed.
Due to our small staff size, at this time, our primary area of operation is presently in non-tidal fresh water portions of the Delaware Basin. If additional resources become available, future plans include development of biological criteria and assessment of the Delaware Estuary and Bay. If you are seeking information about estuarine resources, an excellent source of information is the Partnership for the Delaware Estuary.
Benthic Macroinvertebrates (annual indicator assemblage):
This is the main biological assemblage monitored by DRBC and most other regulatory agencies. Analysis of macroinvertebrate communities is a reliable and cost-effective approach to water quality monitoring because:
- They are sensitive to environmental impacts
- They are less mobile than fish, and thus cannot avoid discharges
- They can indicate effects of spills, intermittent discharges, and lapses in waste treatment
- They are indicators of overall, integrated water quality, including synergistic effects and substances lower than detectable limits
- They are abundant in most streams and are relatively easy and inexpensive to sample
- They are able to detect non-chemical impacts to the habitat, such as siltation or thermal changes
- They are readily perceived by the public as tangible indicators of water quality
- They can often provide an on-site estimate of water quality
- They bioaccumulate many contaminants, so that analysis of their tissues is a good monitor of toxic substances in the aquatic food chain, and
- They provide a suitable endpoint to water quality objectives.
The bullet list above was taken from: NYSDEC Division of Water, 2009, Standard Operating Procedure: Biological Monitoring of Surface Waters in New York State.
As mentioned above, DRBC began annual surveys of Delaware River macroinvertebrates in 2001 for development of a multi-metric index of biological integrity for aquatic life use assessment. The annual survey covers the upper 200 miles of the Delaware River from Hancock, N.Y. to Trenton, N.J.; samples are collected at 25 riffle habitat sites.
Benthic Macroinvertebrate Use for Interim Biocriteria - 2009 Report (pdf 345 KB)
Benthic Periphyton (short term indicator assemblage):
Benthic periphyton were chosen as an additional monitoring assemblage because they are very specific indicators of short term water quality changes, capable of providing biological signals for numerous pollution and habitat modification impacts such as eutrophication, salinity, ions, pH, and sedimentation. Since the Delaware River is generally wide, shallow, clear and exposed to full sunlight, periphyton (diatoms and soft algae growing on rocks) are the dominant source of primary production in the river. Planktonic algae found in the non-tidal part of the river are entirely benthic in origin.
DRBC began annual surveys of Delaware River benthic periphyton in a 2005 pilot study, launching full-scale periphyton monitoring in 2006. Samples are co-located with the benthic macroinvertebrate sites at 25 primary river sites and numerous special study sites on larger tributaries to the Delaware River. Methods can be found in the 2009 QAPP, above. A Periphyton IBI is under development. Anticipated uses include assessment of general short-term Delaware River water quality and nutrient pollution impacts upon aquatic life.

Throughout the 200-mile non-tidal river, close to 60 sites are sampled between May and September and analyzed for nutrients, dissolved oxygen and other conventional pollutants, solids, bacteria, macroinvertebrates, periphyton (alga), and flow.

Those who inherit one copy are called heterozygotes. People who inherit two copies of the mutation, one from each parent, are called homozygotes. Having the factor V Leiden mutation increases your risk for developing a clot in your legs called a deep venous thrombosis (DVT). It also increases your risk of developing a clot that travels through the bloodstream and lodges in the lungs, called a pulmonary embolism (PE).[1][2]Factor V Leiden thrombophilia is an inherited disorder that results in an increased risk of developing abnormal blood clots.

Forgive the basic question (and the typesetting!) I'm a relative novice regarding category theory, but I've recently decided to teach myself at least the rudiments of toposes. Having stumbled upon Tom Leinster's excellent introductory paper, I'm getting most of the concepts, but I'm still a little woolly on category theoretic proof, and I've been struggling with the following exercise (on page 4 of the paper)
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a category and let $t: T \to \Omega$ be a mono in $\mathcal{E}$. Suppose that for every mono $ m: A \to X$, $X$ in $\mathcal{E}$ , there is a unique map $\chi :X \to \Omega$ such that there is a pullback square
Then $T$ is terminal in $\mathcal{E}$ .
It's pretty clear that the uniqueness of the map $f: A \to T$ is going to be a consequence of the uniqueness of the map guaranteed by the universal property of pullbacks- perhaps taking the another map $m': A \to X$, and a map $g:A \to T$, and showing from the universal property that $f=g$, but I can't seem to shake the dependency on $m'$. Are there other tricks to be played? Perhaps, does one set $X=A$ and $m=\operatorname{id}_A$?

Other than learning basic calculus, I don't really have an advanced background. I was curious to learn about Optimal Control (the theory that involves, bang-bang, Potryagin's Maximum Principle etc.) but any article that I start off with, mentions the following: "Consider a control system of the form..." and then goes on to defining partial differential equations. In short, I am lost.

SPOTLIGHT ON:(Back to Menu)
Elizabeth Warren '76: Thoughts on Rutgers Law and Advice to Graduates
When Elizabeth Warren expressed to a newspaper columnist her appreciation that Rutgers School of Law–Newark "took a poor kid from Oklahoma and kicked open a thousand doors for me," she could not have guessed that "opening a thousand doors" would appear a year later as the subtitle for the centennial history of the school. Granting author Professor Paul Tractenberg's request to borrow the phrase, she also graciously provided a blurb for the back cover which speaks of "all of us who love the People's Electric Law School."
|Elizabeth Warren at Harvard Law School
Elizabeth Warren, Class of 1976, was a student during a period in which the "People's Electric Law School" was the moniker used by many in the law school community to connote the energy and engagement of faculty and students in using the law as a vehicle for social change. That the 2011 Commencement Speaker and recipient of an honorary Doctor of Laws degree has used her law degree to make changes – changes that have made a difference – is indisputable.
The Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law at Harvard Law School since 1995, Warren was named by Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2010 and by the National Law Journal as one of the most influential lawyers of the decade. The author of nine books and more than 100 scholarly articles on credit and economic stress, she was an early advocate for the creation of an independent consumer financial protection agency.
In his introduction of Warren as Assistant to the President and Special Advisor to the Secretary of the Treasury on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, President Obama described her as "one of the country's fiercest advocates for the middle class." As "the architect behind the idea of a consumer watchdog," Warren, he said, "is the best person to stand this agency up."
Just as Warren can readily identify the source of her academic interests – the late Rutgers Professor Allan Axelrod, famous for bringing clarity and humor to subjects traditionally thought of as dry – so too can Assistant Professor Chrystin Ondersma. A former teaching assistant to Warren at Harvard Law School, Ondersma also focuses her teaching and scholarship on bankruptcy and commercial law. After receiving her J.D. magna cum laude in 2007 from Harvard, Ondersma clerked for the Honorable Michael Daly Hawkins of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Prior to joining the Rutgers faculty in spring 2010, she was an associate in the Business Finance and Restructuring Department at Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP in New York.
|Rutgers Law Professor Chrystin Ondersma
In the following, Ondersma first recalls one particular class at Harvard Law and then asks her former professor to reflect on some career experiences:
"I'll never forget the first time I heard Professor Warren explain her powerful, now famous 'exploding toaster' analogy: We have a Consumer Product Safety Commission to make sure companies can't sell you a toaster that has a one in five chance of exploding and burning down your house – but we have nothing to prevent a company from selling you a mortgage that comes with a one in five chance that your house will be foreclosed upon.
"I was a student in her class, and it was 2006 – before mortgages started exploding in alarming numbers. Thanks to Professor Warren's tireless advocacy, now we do have an agency charged with ensuring that financial products are safe – the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).
"In September 2010, President Obama announced his appointment of Professor Warren as Assistant to the President and Special Advisor to the Secretary of the Treasury on CFPB. Countless factors make her the ideal person for the job: her unmatched expertise in consumer finance, her commitment to empirical evidence, her willingness to adapt her views in light of new data, and her leadership and management experience (including her role as Chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel for TARP). (Not to mention, of course, that the agency was her idea in the first place.)
"If we all devoted as much as Professor Warren does to improving the well-being and security of ordinary folks, amazing things could happen."
As you know, you are the reason that I became a bankruptcy and commercial law professor. What (or who) led you to specialize in this field?
Allan Axelrod, who taught at Rutgers for decades, turned me on to the subject. He was brilliant, humane, and cranky. He showed how bankruptcy was intellectually challenging, but that at its heart was about moral choices. Axelrod was a towering figure, and, along with many other Rutgers alums, I miss him.
When you first graduated from law school, you had your own solo practice. Can you tell me about one of your most memorable moments as a new practitioner?
I had a client whose checkbook had been stolen, and the bank had informed her that she would have to make good on the forged checks passed by the thief. She didn't think that was fair – and I didn't think it was legal. So I called the bank on her behalf. The banker I spoke with was polite, but firmly insisted there was nothing he could do to help: "Bank policy," he said. So I quoted Article III of the Uniform Commercial Code. There was a long pause on the other end of the line, and then the reply: "We'll give her back the money." It really drove home how powerful the law is, but that it isn't self-enforcing; access and information is critical.
What is one memory of Rutgers Law School that exemplifies your experience as a student there?
I remember orientation day. Some crusty professor barked at us that there was only one thing to learn at that point: Where are the restrooms. Everything else, I could figure out on my own. Clearly, law school was going to be very different from college.
I am in awe of the ease with which you speak publicly – whether testifying before Congress, chatting with Jon Stewart, or addressing viewers of Dr. Phil. To what do you attribute that skill?
I was on the receiving end of some of the toughest Socratic teachers in the country. It surely helped taking Constitutional Law with the legendary Bob Knowlton. Class felt like hand-to-hand combat every day! Nothing ever scared me quite so much again after law school.
Do you have any words of wisdom for law students or recent law grads currently seeking (or soon to be seeking) work in this tough economy?
In difficult times like these, consider taking whatever job is offered to get your foot in the door, and then do your best to turn it into an interesting job. Like anything in life, a job is what you make of it. At the new consumer agency, there are so many bright people who have come in and essentially said, "This is the work I'm assigned, and I'll do it cheerfully and efficiently – but I'm raising my hand to volunteer to work on other projects that will really let me spread my wings." It's a smart move now, but an even better attitude for life.

Target $25 email gift card offer: Is it real?
Just as Target was attempting to soothe angry customers with an offer of free credit monitoring, along comes another email guaranteed to confuse you.
Email offers gift card
Many people are receiving what appears to be a note of apology about the recent security breach from Target's CEO.
It's followed by a link to receive a $25 gift card if you come back to the store.
But a caution before you click: This one is not from Target. Rather, in the fine print you'll see it's from a company called "On Demand Research."
If you fill out a survey it links you to, you may receive a gift card.
While it is not a scam, the company has a number of complaints online from others who have attempted to collect similar gift cards.
It is a New York-based marketing company with a C rating from the Better Business Bureau.
Credit monitoring offer is from Target
However, the Target email offering free credit monitoring is really from Target. The store is offering a free year of monitoring, for customers at risk from the security breach.
CLICK HERE to read more about that legitimate offer from the store.
Confused? What to do
To know if any e-mail is really from the retailer, look at the return address on the email: it should include Target.com.
In addition, if a link is included, always hover your cursor over the link before clicking. It should show Target.com in the URL address.
If it does not, then it is typically not from Target.
Finally, you can call the store's customer service line and ask if it is really from them. That way you stay safe and you don't waste your money.

What was the official policy of the USA on colonisation? How well did America follow it officially and non-officially? What were the reasons behind it?
Well technically they colonised the rest of the country. Initially the USA was only the eastern seabord.
The United States did not have an official colonial policy, however, the US had colonial aspirations that probably date back to the idea of "Manifest Destiny." This starting point is problematic though because typical colonial powers sought to utilize the local populace in some manner (as a captive market, extracting resources, etc.) whereas the US wanted to extend to California and get rid of all the inhabitants.
It was not until the right before the Spanish-American War that the United States began to develop a thirst for typical colonies akin to the European nations. As Professor Thomas McCormick articulated in this article from 1963, the purpose of the US territorial expansion was to keep foreign markets open. Professor McCormick's article is heavily sourced with quotations from administration officials around the time of the Spanish-American War stating their concern for the free flow of American commerce.
Part of this desire to keep markets open for US goods was the desire to be considered a world power. One way this was expressed was in Theodore Roosevelt launching his "white fleet" to impress domestic/international audiences. Swept into this thinking was also a sense of "mission" not dissimilar to the idea of "white man's burden," to bring civilization to the rest of the world. This theme (and the others touched on) is discussed in Mary Ann Heiss's great article The Evolution of the Imperial Idea and US National Identity
So, the US colonial policy was really to keep the rest of the world open for US business, and as a secondary goal, civilize the rest of the world. That policy has not changed terribly much to this present day.
Well other than territories taken from the Spanish American war, and Hawaii, America never went on a sort of "colony" building expedition like the Europeans. There was plenty of land here to take over rather than go to other countries, which were either already claimed or in the process thereof by other countries. Still the fact remained we had more land here to inhabit than was possible to fill during most of the 19th Century so we didn't need to look far, except for maybe Mexico...
Some places to look for information is on the Colonization of the Philippines, which notes on the first page the feelings towards a US colonial empire - http://www.jstor.org/pss/20067365
Texas, could be considered a colonization effort since it was initially part of Mexico - http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/uma01
And for some reverse colonization you can look at the American Colonization Society that wanted to put free blacks back in Africa - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Colonization_Society

text: Tai Chi Workouts for the Whole Body By Jeffrey Beck January 27, 2014 A few weeks ago at Channel 2, Mary and I talked about a low impact, slow moving workout known as Tai Chi. It's a non-violent form of the martial arts derived from the Chinese. The exercises we did work the upper and lower body, help build muscular strength, increase flexibility balance and are quite relaxing. Tai Chi also has many meditative properties. It's great for everyone but especially the older population. Read More

I have the ESP-8Si that was installed before I purchased my home. After having the problem with it (display blank), I opened the wiring panel and noticed that 7 stations and the common are wired but there is a Grey and Pink wire with the ends stripped but not connected. The MV and station #8 is not being used and other blogs have mentioned that the MV is only used as needed. Is it normal to have only 8 of the 10 wires in use? Not sure why they left the ends bare and not covered.I have Rain Bird ESP 8TM Model that has been in service for 8 years. it started to display PR off after thunderstorm. the first time it ever happened. voltage meter reading on wires on transformer was ok. fuse looked ok. I unplugged transformer, fuse, lithium battery, and then put all of them back. The power came back on.

I am essentially looking for a book that would hold my hand through basic concepts to more complicated ones. I am coming from physics. I am looking to make some connections with Classical mechanics and or quantum field theory. I have been told that QFT is really just geometry and have only seen a few manifest aspects of that. I must say I am not any kind of expert. I want to be one though. I am looking for a short book. I also want to be able to understand the whole complex cohomology and homology thing. I am guessing most of you know what I am talking about. Are there any books out there? Again, I am wanting to hold back on rigor and proofs to first get the concepts down well. Any video lecture links would be highly appreciated too. I am trying to study them for the next couple of months say three or four. Differential geometry and topology are things I would love to be invisible at. . . So please help me out. Recommend some books and video links. Feel free to throw any Yang- Mills material at me too. Thanks in advance.

There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
I think the books "Topology, Geometry, and Gauge Fields: Foundations" and "Topology, Geometry, and Gauge Fields: Interactions" are exactly what you're looking for. They are not short, but you don't actually want a short book anyway because the only way to write a short differential geometry book is to give few terse examples and leave all the calculations to the reader. That's good once you have a foothold but frustrating at first. Mathematically, the books start with basically nothing and get through:
-Basic differential geometry: manifolds, Lie groups, connections on principal bundles, spin geometry -Basic algebraic topology: de Rham cohomology, Chern-Weil theory, basic homotopy theory, classification of principal bundles
Physically, it covers the rudiments of gauge theory up through the beginnings of Donaldson theory / Yang-Mills theory ("Foundations") and the beginnings of Seiberg-Witten theory ("Interactions"). It gives tons of detailed examples and exercises throughout, including some examples that you don't often see in textbooks (like the quaternionic Hopf fibration).
To decide if the books are for you, I would recommend just finding a copy of "Foundations" and reading Chapter 0 - it is a bird's eye view of the subject which sets the tone for the rest of the series.
Maybe the following books will be helpful: The Geometry of Physics: An Introduction, by Theodore Frankel. Geometry, Topology and Physics, by Mikio Nakahara.
For a quick introduction into the subject I would recommend (not physics oriented) Elementary Differential Geometry, by Andrew Pressley.
And finally, as the geometry of physics (both general relativity and gauge theory) is really a Cartan geometry, the following book (alas, also not physics oriented) is worth to mention: Cartan for Beginners: Differential Geometry Via Moving Frames and Exterior Differential Systems, by Thomas A. Ivey and J. M. Landsberg.

Thoughts & remarks by WTVY-TV meteorologist Oscar Fann...
DEBBY is currently in a world of hurt (dry air)...she's moisture starved and it will take awhile to regain her deep convection...
In fact, if this dry air intrusion continues, DEBBY may have trouble surviving period...
Tropical storms usually are pretty resilient, and with time moisture rebuilds in the storm's core...IF the dry air intrusion is limited and eventually ends.
However, there is plenty of dry air north and west of DEBBY waiting to be captured by the circulation of DEBBY. The moisture to the east will mix with the dry air to the north, while the deep moisture to the south may become too far removed for DEBBY's circulation to capture it.
Meanwhile, even though DEBBY is officially "stationary" the center has actually drifted noticeably to the north-northeast in the last 3 hours. There is also the possibility this slight NNE movement may continue..IF SO, then DEBBY may try to move through northeast Florida into south central or southeast Georgia.
Don't count DEBBY out just yet, but for now she's definitely wobbly and looking meteorologically anemic. Lots to watch on Monday.

Para mim o melhor de todos servidores
A compelling argument and i would like to ask how significant is the issue of processor load vs efficiency loss due to heating if the load from other processors is relaxed by switching them off, shifting the combined loads onto the one processor, and have you investigated what point of processor usage will be optimal to change the mode of operation and redistribute the loading to achieve best performance vs energy consumption? It is a good step ahead to manage power loading, and any step towards that is a good step, especially since that step comes from the programming of how the equipment is used, but i would imagine that a phillips screw driver no matter how well it is handled by a master would not be very efficient in turning a regular screw, the energy question needs to be solved at the hardware end, however the tools you provide will help to establish a baseline for how badly we had run things from a futuristic perspective.

Each year, students from the first–year class are selected to serve as public interest fellows through one of the school's established fellowship programs. These students, in addition to their work through the individual program for which they are selected, serve as the school's public interest leaders. Fellows assist with all Neisser programming and activities, and are responsible for each year's Fellows Forum, a series of monthly events designed to raise awareness of current cases, trends and issues affecting the public interest.
The Kinoy-Stavis Fellowship Program
In 1992-1993, Rutgers School of Law–Newark began offering fellowships in the name of one of its most nationally prominent and treasured faculty members, the late Professor Arthur Kinoy. In 2000, the program was expanded in honor of the late Morton Stavis, a co-founder with Professor Kinoy of the Center for Constitutional Rights and one of the nation's preeminent civil rights lawyers and former adjunct professor at the law school.
Three Kinoy-Stavis Fellowships are awarded each spring semester to applicants from the first-year class who demonstrate commitment to public service and who are planning public interest careers. The Fellows normally serve until graduation. Fellows receive a stipend, are guaranteed enrollment in the Constitutional Litigation Clinic during their second year in law school plus the opportunity for a summer internship with the Center for Constitutional Rights at the end of the second year, and receive travel expenses to at least one public interest law student conference. Fellows serve on the law school's Public Interest Committee, organize the annual First Monday program, promote public interest activities throughout the year, and meet regularly with faculty advisers and invited guests from the field of public interest law to discuss aspects of public interest practice and career opportunities.
Current Kinoy-Stavis Fellows:
Chloe Gogo '16
Michael Griffith '16
Caitlin Miller '16
Daniel Palmer '16
Abdus-Sami Jameel '17
Annabel Pollioni '17
Farah Rahaman '17
Carol Yablonsky '17
For further information, contact Professor Frank Askin.
The Marsha Wenk Fellowship in Public Interest Law
Created in memory of Marsha Wenk, a 1987 graduate of the law school who dedicated her legal career to public service and who died in 1996, the Wenk fellowship program seeks to support students interested in developing a career in public interest law, and to foster a cadre of law students involved in public interest activities during law school.
Two fellowships are awarded each year. Fellows receive a stipend and intern part-time at the American Civil Liberties Union of New Jersey during one semester. The Fellows serve on the law school's Public Interest Committee and work with the Kinoy Fellows to help develop and participate in public interest activities at the law school.
For further information, email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Current Marsha Wenk Fellows:
Matthew Knoblauch '16
Pooja Patel '16
Marisol Conde-Hernandez '17
Victoria Saraiva '17
Alaina Thomas '17
The Immigrant Rights Fellowship
One Immigrant Rights Fellowship will be awarded each spring semester to an applicant from the first-year class who demonstrates a commitment to public service in the field of immigration law or immigrant rights and who is planning a public interest career in immigration or immigrant rights. The Fellow will serve until graduation. The Immigrant Rights Fellow is guaranteed enrollment in the Immigrant Rights Clinic (IRC) during the second year or third year in law school (and as a repeating IRC student thereafter) and a guaranteed internship with the American Friends Service Committee's Immigrant Rights Program in Newark during the summer between the second and third years. The Fellow will also engage in paid work with the IRC during that summer and will receive assistance in securing funding for the AFSC internship. The Immigrant Rights Fellow will serve on the law school's Public Interest Committee, and will organize immigration or immigrant rights–related symposia or other events at the law school.
Current Immigrant Rights Fellows
Nayomi Deen '16
Cristina D'Amato '17
Fara Momen '17
For further information, contact Professor Anju Gupta, Director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic.
