Current Courses
Spring 2017
Here are the English courses being offered in Spring 2017 and the different ways in which they can be used to fulfill the English major and the Creative Writing minor. For a full description of each course, including the Special Topics courses, click on the course numbers below.
W2 ENG 101 10: Literature and Composition
W2 ENG 101 10: Lit & Comp MWF 1:30-2:20 Meehan
English 101 develops your capacity for intelligent reading, critical analysis, and writing through the study of literature. This section will study literature in which questions and implications of writing and technology are present, if not prominent: Mary Shelley's nineteenth-century novel Frankenstein; Sven Birkerts's lament for the fate of reading and the book in that digital age, The Gutenberg Elegies; a variety of film versions and adaptations of the Frankenstein story (film is a multimedia writing machine); and various electronic (or hypertext) literary works. At the same time, reading and writing about such technology in literature, we will explore and interrogate reading and writing in relation to technology—indeed, reading and writing as technologies. Our focus, in this sense, is also a first-hand exploration of what it means for us to read and write and interpret texts thoughtfully and creatively, including the very texts we are working on—what it means for us to be and become skilled in the techniques and rhetoric of writing and critical thinking. Further information on the course can be found here: https://comppost.wordpress.com/syllabus/

Class discussions—with significant contributions from student papers—will explore Shakespeare's writings through the consideration of issues including authority and justice, appearance and identity, seeing and believing, memory, forgiveness, family, sexuality, and gender. Using films and local live productions (if available), we will also consider the plays as they have been and as they might be interpreted for performance.
Counts for: Pre-1800, elective

ENG 208 10: History of English Literature II
ENG 208 10 History of English Literature II MWF 1:30-2:20 Foster

Counts for: 200-level
Also counts for: Humanities distribution
ENG/AMS 201 10: Intro to American Lit II
ENG/AMS 201 10: Intro to American Lit II TTH 1:00-2:45 De Prospo
The course is concerned with the establishment of American Studies as a curriculum in post-World War II American colleges and universities. Readings will include a variety of written texts, including those not traditionally considered literary, as well as a variety of other-than-written materials, including popular cultural ones, in accordance with the original commitment of American Studies to curricular innovation. Introductions to the modern phenomena of race, gender, sexual orientation, generation, and class in US culture will be included.
Counts for: 200-level
Also counts for: Humanities distribution
ENG/AMS/BLS 213 10: Intro to African American Lit II
ENG/AMS/BLS 213 10 Intro to African American Lit II MWF 12:30–1:20 Knight
This course is a survey of African American literature from its beginnings to our current time. It is designed to introduce students to the writers, texts, themes, conventions and tropes that have shaped the African American literary tradition. Authors studied in this course include Phillis Wheatley, Frederick Douglass, Langston Hughes, and Toni Morrison, along with other black writers of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. We will study representations of African American identity as it relates W.E.B. Du Bois's notion of "double consciousness." Each of the narratives, poems, essays and stories contemplates what it means to be both black and an American. By the end of this course, you should have a clear understanding of how representative works by African American writers address intersectional identities in their work. You should also be able to understand these works within their literary, historical, social and political contexts.
Counts for: 200-level
Also counts for: Humanities distribution, Black Studies minor, American Studies major
W2 ENG 220: Intro to Fiction
W2 ENG 220 Intro to Fiction MWF 11:30-12:20 Knight
This course surveys the rich tradition of prose fiction in English (and in translation), with an emphasis on the enduring features of this genre as it evolved throughout the centuries, as well as the innovations introduced by individual writers. Class discussions will include, along with close readings of the works themselves, an appreciation of the historical and cultural contexts out of which they arose. The literary works selected for this course draw upon a variety of fictional forms and styles; however, all of the texts touch on the idea of difference. Nearly all of the protagonists find themselves at odds with their families, communities, cultures and/or societies in which they live. One of the central questions we will contemplate in this course is "How do these characters deal with being different?" We will also consider how they are perceived by others, and how each author uses the trope of difference and otherness to articulate various themes in her/his writing.
Counts for: 200-level
Also counts for: Humanities distribution, W2 (writing requirement)
W2 ENG 221 10: Intro to Nonfiction
W2 ENG 221 10 Intro to Nonfiction MWF 10:30-11:20 Meehan
We study the essay, the oldest and arguably most significant form of nonfiction. As you will see, this is not necessarily the "essay" you were asked (or forced) to write in earlier schooling. Essayists, from Montaigne and Emerson to contemporary writers of what's called creative nonfiction have viewed this literary form not as punishment or even pedagogy so much as performance and experiment. "Essay is a verb, not just a noun," the contemporary essayist John D'Gata notes, "essaying is a process." We will explore that process as both readers and writers of essays across three parts of the course, moving us from classic to contemporary examples, and from critical perspectives on the essay to creative performance of our own essaying. Part One: The Philosophy of the Essay—origins and principles of the form. Part Two: The Rhetoric of the Essay—the essay in series or book collection, used to argue, expose, explore. Part Three: The Poetics of the Essay—innovations of the essay in recent forms of "creative nonfiction," including multimedia. The course will culminate with a substantial essay that students develop and prepare for actual publication.
Counts for: 200-level
Also counts for: Humanities distribution, W2 Writing Requirement
W2 ENG 222 10: Intro to Poetry
W2 ENG 222 10: Intro to Poetry TTH 10-11:15 Sovich
This course will provide an introduction to the study of various styles and forms of poetry. By reading a wide range of poetic styles from a number of aesthetic schools, students will consider the ways in which poetry has become a conversation across centuries, how the genre may act simultaneously as a personal and a political voice, and how it may be interpreted not only as intimate confession but also as "supreme fiction."
Counts for: 200-level
Also counts for: Humanities distribution, W2 (writing requirement)
ENG 294 10: Intro to World Lit
ENG 294 10: Intro to World Lit TTH 11:30-12:45 Kesey
Students in this course will explore a number of superb contemporary texts drawn from outside the Anglo-American literary tradition. Very nearly all of the work will be read in translation; knowledge of the source languages will be helpful but is not required or expected. The cultural and historical contexts of each work studied will be provided by lectures, student-led discussions and oral presentations, and the reading of secondary sources. Close attention will be paid to both the values that might be seen to serve as bridges between literary traditions and to the characteristics that help each work stand out from others that happen to share its time, place and genre.
Counts for: 200-level
Also counts for: Humanities distribution
ENG 342/EDU 354 10: Children's & Young Adult Lit
ENG 342/EDU 354 10: Children's & Young Adult Lit TTH 1-2:15 Bunten
Various genres will be treated with regard to historical, social, cultural, and contemporary perspectives. Readings for the course will be drawn from the folk tale, fairy tale, poetry, myth, fiction, and picture books. The art and practice of storytelling will be treated.
Counts for: Post-1800, elective
Also counts for: Eduction
ENG 344: The American Novel
ENG 344: The American Novel TTH 2:30-3:45 Mooney
This course is a survey of nineteenth- and twentieth-century novels written by Americans. Writers include Nathaniel Hawthorne, Herman Melville, Theodore Dreiser, Willa Cather, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, J.D. Salinger, Toni Morrison, and Tom Wolfe.

ENG 363/AMS: The Gilded Age and American Realism
ENG 363/AMS: The Gilded Age & Am. Realism TTH 10:00-11:15 Knight
This course examines key prose fiction of the Gilded Age of American literary history and culture (roughly 1878–1901). Careful attention will be given to various treatments of "Big Business," industrialization, urbanization, regionalism and social inequality in the work of Mark Twain, Stephen Crane, Kate Chopin, Frances E.W. Harper, Charles Chesnutt, and others.
Counts for: Post-1800, elective

ENG/AMS/HUM/GEN/BLS 377: 2PACalypse Now
ENG/AMS/HUM/GEN/BLS 377: 2PACalypse Now W 7-9:30 De Prospo
There's something about Heart of Darkness—neither the most readable nor the most teachable of books, even of Conrad's books. And there's something about Conrad, too, a native Pole for whom English was a third language, a third language that he evidently spoke so poorly that when conversing with his American literary friend Henry James they both reverted to what was for both of them a second language: French. The course will try to explore what it is that has attracted so many white male Anglophone intellectuals—and prompted the condemnation of one African writer, the mockery of one black rapper, and, perhaps, the rivalry of a prominent, brown, novelist—over the more than hundred years now since the original publication of Heart of Darkness in 1899 in England in Blackwood's Magazine. Class texts will include Conrad's novella, Coppola's Apocalypse Now, Tupac's 2PACalypse Now, Faulkner's Absalom, Absalom! (which contains a prominent allusion to Heart of Darkness), Chinua Achebe's essays, V.S. Naipaul's A Bend in the River, a sampling of the blizzard of journalistic quotations of the novel's title and of its most famous, four-word, speech, plus some theorizings of race and gender that might shed some light on why the book has managed to appeal so strongly to a relatively homogenous cohort of readers and adaptors.
Counts for: Post-1800, elective
Also counts for: American Studies major, Humanities major, Gender Studies minor, Black Studies minor
ENG 393/493: Journalism Practicum
ENG 393/493: Journalism Practicum Th 6-7 pm McIntire
This course teaches basic news reporting and writing – the who, what, when, where, why & how of story organization; getting quickly to the point; conciseness; straightforward exposition; accuracy, fairness and balance, and ethical issues.
This is a two-credit course. Students may count no more than 4 journalism practicum credits toward the English major.
Counts for: Elective
ENG 394 10/GEN: Queer Lit
ENG 394 10/GEN: Queer Lit MWF 10:30-11:20 Foster
This course offers an introduction to selected works of queer literature. Together, we will explore a range of texts from the 19th- 21st-centuries that present a variety of perspectives on LGBTQ experiences. We will place these works within their cultural and historical contexts, and we will explore a number of theoretical lenses through which we might interpret them, including constructivist theories of gender and sexuality and intersectional approaches. Questions to which we will return throughout the course include: how do we define "queer literature"? what are its main characteristics? does a writer who identifies as queer automatically produce a queer text? What is the queer author/artist's relationship with form? What is the relationship between queerness, narrative and social justice? self-help? entertainment? politics? power? privilege?, and finally, how do issues of sexual/gender identity intersect with other kinds of personal identity such as race and social class?
Counts for: Post-1800, elective
Also counts for: Gender Studies minor
ENG 394 11: From Biography to Fiction: Transformation and Revision
ENG 394 11: From Biography to Fiction: Transformation and Revision
TTH 11:30-12:45 Saxton
This course explores the relationship between biography and the imaginative process of writing fiction. We will read biographical accounts of three well-known early American novelists: Catherine Maria Sedgwick, Louisa May Alcott, and Harriet Beecher Stowe as well as studying a popular text by each: Hope Leslie, by Sedgwick, Work, by Alcott, and Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin. Each novel has significant autobiographical content, but the authors have transformed their personal experience—as well as their individual experiences of their social and cultural worlds into popular stories. This will be a discussion-based class in which students will trace the relationships between the lived experience of the authors as recounted by their biographers and the ways in which the writers used memories of those incidents and impressions in stories for a broad audience. These writers shared significant religious and social influences that shaped their expectations about gender, work, marriage, family, and community. Students will explore the similarities and differences in the authors' treatment of these themes in their plots and development of character. Pairs of students will be expected to lead class discussion at least once during the semester.
Counts for: Post-1800, elective
ENG 394 12: Disability & (In)Visibility: Representations in Contemporary Lit.
ENG 394 12: Disability & (In)Visibility: Representations in Contemporary Lit.
MWF 12:30-1:20 Foster
Through an examination of contemporary literature, this course will take up a number of current topical debates In Disability Studies. We will consider disability as a form of embodied difference and explore the different ways in which DS can offer a richer perspective from which to view literature and culture. We will begin by discussing foundational texts in DS—and then draw on a range of contemporary literary texts to examine the multiple meanings the human body comes to bear in various social and cultural contexts. Exploring both questions of physical difference and 'normality', you will be encouraged to think and write critically about the significance of the body with regard to questions of individual and communal identities as well as larger social and political issues. You will also examine the intersections of the body and text and the ways in which a thoughtful examination of the body as representation coincides with an exploration of the text (in its many forms) as a representation or a means of representing. Throughout the course, you will engage with questions of representation: How can the body be translated into a text? What is at stake? Can the body ever be fully textualized or does it resist representation? How does the body come to bear the weight of contemporary debates and concerns? What role does representation play in the constitution of bodies?
Counts for: Post-1800, elective
ENG 394 13: SpTp Literary Editing & Publishing
ENG 394 13: SpTp Literary Editing & Publishing M 1:30-4 Hall
During the 2015-16 academic year, The Rose O'Neill Literary House launched Cherry Tree, a professional literary journal featuring poets, fiction writers, and nonfiction writers of national reputation and which will be staffed by Washington College students. In this course, students receive hands-on training in the process of editing and publishing a top-tier literary journal. They analyze literary markets even as they steward into print work from the nation's most prestigious emerging and established writers. This class includes extensive research and discussion of nationally recognized literary magazines and covers topics such as a publication's mission statement, its aesthetic vision, and its editorial practices. Some attention will also be paid to the history of literary editing and publishing and theories regarding the role of the literary journal vis-à-vis diversity and representation.All students who wish to join the editorial staff and be included on the masthead of Cherry Tree must complete one semester of ENG 394: Literary Editing & Publishing.
Counts for: Elective, Creative Writing minor
ENG 410/THE: Shakespeare Now: Shakespeare & Contemporary Criticism
ENG 410/THE: Shakespeare Now: Shakespeare & Contemporary Criticism
TTH 1-2:15 Moncrief
This course focuses on the advanced study of plays initially covered in the 200-level Shakespeare course in conjunction with the study of contemporary literary theory. The semester begins with an introduction to literary theory and methodology. Then, using plays as case studies, we will examine each play in relation to historical, seminal, or controversial criticism. Reading will concentrate on important critical approaches to the study of Shakespeare (i.e., New Criticism, Reader Response Theory, Structuralism, Post-structuralism, Psychoanalytic Criticism, Marxism, Feminism, New Historicism/ Cultural Materialism, Performance Criticism and Post-Colonialism).
Counts for: Pre-1800, elective
Also counts toward the Drama major
ENG 452 10: Creative Writing Workshop: Fiction
ENG 452 10: Creative Writing Workshop: Fiction W 4-6:30 Mooney
This workshop offers guided practice in the writing of short fiction. Using the work of established writers as models, considerable effort is put toward the objective of learning to read as writers and, in the process, becoming better critics of the student's own work and the work of others in the group. By offering a more intimate familiarity with the elements of fiction, students write and revise prodigiously and, in the process, learn and practice a repertoire of literary strategies in preparation and in support of short stories of their own composition.
Prerequisite: ENG 103 Introduction to Creative Writing.
Counts for: Elective, Creative Writing minor
ENG 494 10: Creative Writing Workshop: Travel Writing
ENG 494 10: Creative Writing Workshop: Travel Writing T 1:30-4 Kesey
This creative writing workshop will focus on reading, analyzing and writing within this most inclusive of all literary genres. We will bear witness to the ways in which travel writers from Herodotus through Marco Polo and Mary Wortley Montagu to Beryl Markham and Paul Theroux have made use of an incredibly wide range of other genres (including but not limited to memoir, journalism, ethnography, scientific report, correspondence, history, and fiction) in the course of their attempts to bring news of the Other back home. In the interest of stealing tricks for our own travel writings, we will explore the ways in which the genre-based parameters of travel writing work to create and give form to our knowledge of the world, as well as the ways in which specific travel writing texts use, perform, allude to and transform these parameters. This course will include a number of short field trips, both literal and metaphorical.
Prerequisite: ENG 103 Introduction to Creative Writing
Counts for: Elective, Creative Writing minor
ENG 494 11-12/ART: Poetry and Book Arts: Writing, Printing, Binding
ENG 494 11/ART M 10-12:30 Sovich
ENG 494 12/ART W 1:30-4 Sovich
Letterpress printing allows writers to consider the printed page as a form with its own limitations, its own rules to test and break. Students will learn to hand set their writing in lead type and feel the physical weight of their own words. The class will work toward writing, designing, letterpress printing, and hand binding a small-edition chapbook that will feature each student's poetry, written during the semester. The focus of the class will be the exploration of briefer forms and experimentation with utilization of the page. Class time will be split between discussions and demonstrations.
Prerequisite: ENG 103 Introduction to Creative Writing
Counts for: Elective, Creative Writing minor, Art major

De Blasio Unveils $41 Billion Plan for Affordable HousingHenry Goldman
New York Mayor Bill de Blasio presented plans to build and preserve 200,000 units of affordable housing in the next decade by increasing rent protections for the poor and requiring developers to include below-market apartments in newly zoned areas.
The $41.1 billion program, paid for with city, state, federal and private funds, would focus 60 percent on preservation and 40 percent on new construction. About $8.2 billion of the cost would be borne by the city, according to a 116-page report detailing the plan, which de Blasio called the "largest, fastest" affordable-housing program ever attempted at the local level.
De Blasio, 52, a self-described progressive and the city's first Democratic mayor in 20 years, took office in January after describing income inequality as the most serious issue facing the most populous U.S. city. He turned his attention to housing today after pushing the state legislature in March to grant the city $300 million to institute universal all-day pre-kindergarten.
"In a progressive city, everyone should have the opportunity for affordable housing, and that's what this plan sets out to achieve," de Blasio said today at a Brooklyn news conference. "It's a housing plan, yes, but it's also a plan to address income inequality."
Inclusionary Zoning
The 10-year plan was drafted under the supervision of Alicia Glen, de Blasio's deputy mayor for housing and economic development, and a former executive at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. Goals include a 200 percent increase in "very-low income" housing, defined as serving a four-person household earning $25,151 to $41,950 a year, and a 50 percent increase in "moderate-income" units for households with $67,121 to $100,680 a year.
The mayor's proposals include "mandatory inclusionary zoning," in which developers would be required to build a certain percentage of low- and moderate-income housing in buildings that benefit from zoning changes that lift height restrictions.
De Blasio's plan "identifies the problems and provides a realistic road map for solutions," said Steven Spinola, president of the Real Estate Board of New York, a trade association. He said the board would work with the mayor to implement the plan.
Tenant Protection
City planners will embark on a citywide effort to identify locations near mass transit access that may be appropriate for high-rise development that would include affordable units. Developers required to restrict the cost of some of those units would benefit from new rules aimed at reducing costly delays by streamlining regulatory procedures, according to the report.
It would also double the city's capital funding for housing to about $6.7 billion over the next 10 years. About $30 billion in private capital would be sought from banks, pension funds and bond investors, according to the plan.
To protect tenants, city officials will "use every tool at its disposal" to prevent landlord harassment in rent-regulated buildings, according to the report. Landlords would also receive incentives to hold off on rent increases.
Koch Legacy
Former Mayor Edward Koch, who served three terms from 1978 through 1989, created a program that built at least 190,000 units over 16 years, according to Wiley Norvell, a de Blasio spokesman. The Koch plan used $5.1 billion on housing subsidies for poor and working families, said George Arzt, who was Koch's press secretary. De Blasio's plan would eclipse Koch's program in number of units and speed of execution, according to de Blasio's office.
De Blasio's plan for mandatory inclusionary zoning would build on a similar but voluntary program instituted by his predecessor, former Mayor Michael Bloomberg, founder and majority owner of Bloomberg News parent Bloomberg LP, who built and renovated about 165,000 affordable-housing units, spending $5.3 billion in city funds to leverage another $18.3 billion in private and other government investment.
De Blasio, a regional director for the U.S. Housing and Urban Development department in the late 1990s under then-Secretary Andrew Cuomo, now New York's governor, also visited the Bronx today to dramatize the city's housing shortage and promote his program.
The report accompanying the plan credited housing advocates, the city's five borough presidents, city council members, labor leaders, 13 city agency heads, real estate developers and nonprofits for helping to create the set of more than 50 initiatives, many of which will require council and state legislative approval.
Homeless Shelters
Other goals include preventing and reducing homelessness, increasing supportive housing for the disabled and ill and providing more choices for senior citizens, according to the report.
More than 50,000 sleep in homeless shelters, according to the city's Department of Homeless Services. About a third of the city's 8.4 million residents spend at least half of their income on rent, according to the city's Rent Guidelines Board. De Blasio has called for more rent subsidies to tenants as a homeless prevention strategy.
Pension Investment
About 360,000 apartments that rented for $400 to $1,000 a month disappeared during a 12-year period beginning in 2000, as the median rents jumped 31 percent, to $1,100 from $830, in the same period, city Comptroller Scott Stringer said in an April 23 report.
As comptroller, Stringer acts as investment adviser to the city's five pension funds, which control a total of about $150 billion in assets. De Blasio has advocated investing about $1 billion in affordable housing. New York's pensions for police officers, firefighters, teachers, school administrators and civil employees have been investing in affordable housing and economic development since 1981.
As of Dec. 30, the funds had placed about $1.2 billion in similar investments, with a 10-year annualized return of 5.85 percent after fees, compared with a 4.52 percent return for its benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, according to city records.

I currently have a pair of blue rams and 1 gold male in my 70 gallon tank. I would like to get a female gold to go with the male, but the only way my LFS can get gold rams is when they are VERY small.
Is there any way at all to tell which are female when they are so young?

Welcome to the May 2014 edition of Red Notice, a publication of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP.
This month, on the anticorruption front, Avon Products, Inc. ("Avon") agrees to pay USD $135 million to settle a Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) investigation; a UK pharmaceutical giant faces multiple investigations around the globe; two New York broker-dealer execs are the fifth and sixth people to be charged in a banking bribery scheme; multiple multinational corporations face serious bi-continental probes into bribery violations stemming from business activities in China.
In export control and sanctions enforcement news, a Washington man is sentenced to 30 months in prison for conspiracy to export sophisticated computer equipment to Iran, and a travel services provider reaches a USD $2.8 million settlement with the U.S. government to resolve allegations that it violated the Cuban Assets Control Regulations (CACR).
In developments in export control and sanctions law, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) adds nine persons to the BIS Entity List for their affiliation with a weapons proliferator and issues an interim final rule related to the export jurisdiction of certain spacecraft items, and the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) amends the Iran Transactions and Sanctions Regulations (ITSR), releases Ukraine-Related Sanctions Regulations, and adds South Sudan-connected individuals to its Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List in response to a South Sudan-related executive order.
In May, door-to-door cosmetics giant Avon agreed to pay USD $135 million to settle FCPA-related claims — USD $68 million to settle the U.S. Department of Justice's (DOJ) criminal investigation and USD $67 million to settle the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) civil investigation. The penalty, which includes fines, disgorgement and prejudgment interest, is slightly higher than the anticipated USD $132 million the company set aside for the settlement in its quarterly financial disclosures in February. Avon's FCPA troubles began in June 2008 with an internal investigation into illicit payments in China. The six-year probe cost the company more than USD $340 million (as of February), not including the USD $135 million penalty. In addition to the USD $135 million, the company will enter into a three-year deferred prosecution agreement (DPA), and Avon's Chinese unit will plead guilty to violating the FCPA's books-and-records provision. Under the recently developed and increasingly utilized "hybrid monitorship" construct, the company is required to have a compliance monitor for the first 18 months of the agreement. However, with the DOJ's permission, the company will be able to self-monitor for the remaining year and a half of the DPA. Read more at Business Week and Compliance Week.
GlaxoSmithKine PLC (GSK) announced on Tuesday, May 27, that it is facing a formal investigation by the U.K.'s Serious Fraud Office (SFO). This disclosure marks the latest development in a series of investigations surrounding the U.K.-based pharmaceutical company. Earlier in May, the former head of GSK was accused by Chinese police of "authorizing corrupt practices" in China. The allegations stem from charges that GSK personnel bribed doctors in China and other foreign government officials. In July, the company was accused of paying Chinese doctors USD $483 million to promote GSK prescriptions.
The company is also being investigated in Poland by Poland's Central Anti-Corruption Bureau (CBA) for allegedly bribing doctors to promote an asthma drug, Seretide. Between 2010 and 2012, GSK set up a diagnostic standard and medical training program run by doctors in Lodz, Poland. During that time, 11 doctors and one GSK regional manager were charged with alleged corruption. The company suggested that one rogue employee had been responsible for a scheme in which GSK paid doctors to provide "patient education" in return for those doctors writing a certain number of prescriptions for GSK drugs. According to the company, that employee was disciplined and is now cooperating with the ongoing investigation. GSK faces similar allegations of making improper payments to doctors to promote GSK prescriptions in Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon. The company said that the allegations relate to "a small number of individuals" in those countries.
In 2012, GSK pleaded guilty to "promoting two drugs for unapproved uses" in the largest health care fraud settlement in US history — USD $3 billion. Read additional coverage on the U.K. at Reuters, on China at the Times of India, on Poland at the Chicago Tribune, on Iraq at London South East and on Jordan / Lebanon at Reuters.
Earlier this month, the former chief executive officer, Benito Chinea, and former managing director, Joseph DeMeneses, of Direct Access Partners (DAP) faced 16 counts of criminal charges for FCPA and Travel Act violations, including bribery, conspiracy, money-laundering and obstruction of justice. The charges stem from a scheme to bribe an official at a Venezuelan bank in order to secure more than USD $60 million in bond-trading business from the bank. The defendants allegedly made payments through a third party to Maria de los Angeles Gonzalez de Hernandez, a vice president of Banco de Desarollo Económico y Social de Venezuela (BANDES). In 2008, DAP established the Global Markets Group (GMG), and BANDES was a GMG client. According to the allegations, Chinea and DeMeneses worked with three other DAP employees based in Miami to execute a bribery scheme in which Ms. Gonzales directed trading business to GMG. Broker-dealers would execute fixed-income trades on behalf of BANDES, for which they could charge the bank a commission. From 2008-2012, the broker-dealers made more than USD $60 million in commissions using this scheme. The three Miami-based broker-dealers pleaded guilty for their roles in August 2013. The vice president pleaded guilty for her role in the scheme in November 2013 and is awaiting sentencing, which is scheduled for August. Read the DOJ press release and additional coverage at Reuters.
In April, Qualcomm Inc. ("Qualcomm"), Delphi Automotive Plc ("Delphi") and Johnson Controls Inc. ("Johnson Controls") all announced that they had self-reported potential FCPA violations to the SEC and the DOJ related to business activities in China.
Qualcomm is cooperating with official DOJ and SEC investigations and revealed the company did offer gift benefits to individuals in China who were affiliated with state-owned companies and agencies, including preferential hiring and gifts. In total, the mobile-chip vendor estimates that these benefits amounted to less than USD $250,000.
Qualcomm learned of and disclosed the SEC investigation in 2012. Last year, Chinese regulators received a tip from industry groups complaining about Qualcomm's alleged unfair practices to corner China's smartphone market and raided Qualcomm's offices twice. Qualcomm could face serious financial penalties in the United States, including disgorgement of profits, imposition of an independent monitor and civil monetary penalties as well as additional penalties in China, including confiscation of financial gains and a possible fine of up to ten percent of Qualcomm's annual revenue for 2013. Read additional coverage at Yahoo News and here at PC World.
In late April, Delphi revealed in a 10-Q filing to the SEC that it had identified "certain potentially improper payments" by some employees in China that could violate the FCPA. The company disclosed this information to the DOJ and SEC and is cooperating fully with both agencies. Read more at Reuters.
A Florida judge sentenced John Alexander Talley of Seattle, Washington, to 30 months in prison in late April 2014, in part, for conspiracy to violate the Iranian Transaction Regulations (now known ITSR). The judge also sentenced Talley's company, Tallyho Peripherals, Inc. ("Tallyho"), to one-year probation on the same grounds. Court documents indicate that Talley and Tallyho took part in a conspiracy to export sophisticated computer equipment from the United States to Iran and to provide related IT support services. Conspirators transshipped the computer equipment through the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and payments to Talley for providing IT training and support similarly passed through the UAE. Read the BIS press release and coverage from the Tampa Bay Business Journal.
Decolar.com, Inc. Settles Potential Civil Liability for Apparent Violations of the Cuban Assets Controls Regulations
Decolar.com, Inc., a U.S. company with headquarters in Buenos Aires, Argentina, along with its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "Decolar"), agreed to a settlement of USD $2.8 million with OFAC in early May 2014 regarding allegations that it violated the CACR by providing travel-related services involving Cuba. OFAC alleged that Decolar's foreign subsidiaries assisted over 17,800 individuals with Cuba-related flight and hotel reservations over a span of three years. The large settlement amount apparently reflects OFAC's consideration of the following factors: the company's senior managers appeared to have known of the Cuba-related services; the alleged violations, representing a large volume of transactions over an extended period of time, appeared to have resulted from a pattern or practice of conduct; and, despite Decolar's sophistication as a travel services provider, it did not have an OFAC risk-based compliance program in place during the period of the alleged violations. With a base penalty amount of USD $4,460,000, however, the settlement amount also reflects OFAC's assessment that the apparent violations represented only a small portion of Decolar's business and recognition of Decolar's subsequent adoption of OFAC compliance policies and procedures. Read the OFAC enforcement action and Havana Times coverage.
The BIS at the U.S. Department of Commerce in late April 2014 added one Chinese individual and eight Chinese companies to the BIS Entity List in connection with their affiliation with Chinese weapons proliferator Li Fangwei in efforts to supply Iran's ballistic missile program. To designate persons for the Entity List, the U.S. government must determine that listed persons are acting against U.S. national security or foreign policy interests. In a related action, the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury Department") sanctioned the eight Chinese companies. Read the BIS press release and the Treasury Department press release for more details.
OFAC adopted a final rule in early April 2014 that amends the ITSR to expand the general license authorizing food exports/reexports to persons in Iran by including the more broadly defined category of agricultural commodities, with certain exclusions, and to clarify that eligible items are both items that are subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and classified as EAR99 and items that are not subject to the EAR but would be classified as EAR99 if subject. The amendment also creates a new general license for the export/reexport of designated replacement parts for certain medical devices. Read the Treasury Department's announcement and the final rule and background information in the Federal Register.
President Barack Obama issued an Executive Order in early April 2014 permitting sanctions against individuals and entities responsible for the conflict in South Sudan and who threaten the peace, stability and security of South Sudan. OFAC responded in early May by adding certain South Sudan-connected individuals to its SDN List. Read the Executive Order, the OFAC designations and the Treasury Department coverage.
On May 8, 2014, OFAC released regulations pursuant to President Obama's March 2014 Ukraine-related Executive Orders. The new Ukraine-Related Sanctions Regulations include provisions detailing prohibited transactions, as well as provisions on licenses under the OFAC-administered sanctions regime. OFAC intends to further supplement the regulations to include "additional interpretative and definitional guidance and additional general license and statements of licensing policy." Read the new regulations and Treasury Department coverage.
BIS issued an interim final rule in mid-May 2014 relating to the export jurisdiction of certain spacecraft and related items. The rule, part of President Obama's Export Control Reform Initiative, creates new Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) on the Commerce Control List under the EAR, which, along with certain existing ECCNs, will control certain spacecraft and related items deemed to no longer warrant control under the U.S. Munitions List and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations. The Departments of State and Commerce have requested comments on the interim final rule, given the national and economic security implications of the rule. Read the interim final rule summary and comments.

Tightening the Supply Chain
IBM-Enigma, PTC-Groove partnerships take aim at online collaboration.IBM and Parametric Technology Corp. have each found partners to help them sell technologies that will enable manufacturers to collaborate online with suppliers, dealers and other business associates. IBM last week introduced an integrated product suite it created with Enigma Inc. to enable OEMs to gather relevant aftermarket data through a portal-like interface. In the same vein, PTC announced a partnership with Groove Networks Inc. to further enhance design collaboration by incorporating P2P (peer-to-peer) technology from Groove into its products.
San Francisco-based Enigmas software takes information that is useful to OEMs customers (dealers and service companies, for instance), normalizes it in an XML repository and adds hyperlinks to branded sites.

jacket: Escaping the sack of Rome in
1527, with their stomachs churning on
the jewels they have swallowed, the
courtesan Fiammetta and her dwarf
companion, Bucino, head for Venice, the
shimmering city born out of water to
become a miracle of east-west trade:
rich and rancid, pious and profitable,
beautiful and squalid.
With a mix of courage and cunning they infiltrate Venetian society. Together they make the perfect partnership: the sharp-tongued, sharp-witted dwarf, and his vibrant mistress, trained from birth to charm, entertain, and satisfy men who have the money to support her.
Yet as their fortunes rise, this perfect partnership ...

Ready In
This has long been a staple among my appetizer recipe collection and everyone always loves these, especially the men! I add 1/4 cup of sour cream to the ranch/cream cheese mix to add more depth...
I make these sandwiches on those tidy little sandwich squares of rye bread, my favourite. I don't, however add the dried ranch dressing - not to my taste. Great summer tidbit.
I didn't have rye bread so I used regular sandwich bread. Also, didn't have dried dill weed but used fresh from garden. Simple and tasty.
A perfect cucumber sandwich! I used my homemade wheat bread rather than rye.
I have made these many times but without the mayo. A delicious cool snack for the summer!
Wonderful light summery sandwich. My family was very skeptical when I said I was making cucumber sandwiches for lunch, but their frowns turned to smiles once they bit into these tasty treats. ...
This recipe is perfect as is! Don't skip the dill weed. I've been eating this all summer.
Even my son liked it! And asked for more! Mom said they were so light and loved them. I forgot the dill though-next time will add dill into the mix, not sprinkle it.

Read a Flavorpill interview with Marc about the score.
"Ribot is a musician for whom the description 'guitarist's guitarist' is genuinely appropriate… The Kid was a profound and profoundly challenging evening of music, and established a new high water mark for a live music venue in Dallas." —Dallas Observer
Marc Ribot, a "guitarists' guitarist" by any reckoning, is simply one of the most distinctive, transporting, and plainly unyielding of guitarists playing today. A veteran of a multitude of projects of his own, he also has enlivened the work of artists as varied as Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, John Zorn, and Allison Krauss and Robert Plant's hit album Raising Sand.
For his Earshot concert in Seattle, he performs solo guitar music in a program that culminates in his performance of his new solo-guitar score for one of the classics of early film, Charlie Chaplin's The Kid, which starred the impish Jackie Coogan in the title role. The New York Guitar Festival commissioned the score, and Ribot premiered it last year during the festival at Merkin Hall in New York.
