Recognition of Region[edit]
Northern Epirus, especially when mentioning Albanian cities, such as Korca or Vlora, implies an irredentist view against Albania, thus weakening the NPOV of Wikipedia. The continuation of the existence of this template would imply the creation of new templates which violate other countries' territorial and political status quo.--A B X T • ៛ 04:45, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
:I will have to agree with you. A check for this template was asked in IRC, so I volunteered. I made some changes, after checking sources provided in articles. I will discuss this issue with some other users, in order to get some feedback. --Alarichus (talk) 22:21, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
Region with historical-cultural background[edit]
- Apart from being considered irredentist the term is mainly associated with Greek populations that live in southern Albania (they call it N.E. and 785 hits in googlebooks use it too), which is the main reason that it exists. Historically, the term was rejected as irredentist by the Albanian communist regime (1945-1991). I see no reason to delete a 'term' virtually adopting a tottalitarian approach. Actually the template's title is Northern Epirus region & Greek culture in Albania (as per geographic and cultural background).Alexikoua (talk) 05:40, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
I will give specific references that mention presence of Greek population in towns, cities that according to the former totalitarian regime in Albania (1945-1991) were never existent:
- T. Winnifrith: p. 29 [[1]]: Berat was the seat of a Greek bishopric in medieval and modern times, and today Vlach- and even Greek speakers can be found in the town and villages near by.
- Petiffer 2001:...thereby excluding important concentrations of Greek settlement in Vlora (perhaps 8000 people in 1994)...
- Vickers, Petiffer p. 187:...there was bitter inter ethnic conflict in the minority regions of Korca and Gjirokaster...
- Katherine Elizabeth Fleming: p.36: a large town whose Greek and Vlach merchants estamblished chamber of commerce. The prosperity of the Moschopolis Greeks...
The above references are included in the relevant articles, but there is an additional number of books & publications that confirms the above claims.
As for the polyphonic song of Epirus, it is more than obvious that it is part of the people's local tradition (the article is cited).Alexikoua (talk) 07:02, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
I have answered in our talk page discussion. Please read my reply there. --Alarichus (talk) 08:40, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
I suggest that Greek editors gently remove Polyphonic song of Epirus from this template and also remove the template itself from the article of the Polyphonic song. There is no scholar conclusion to suggest that the song has Greek origins as this paragraph suggests. In fact, Vlachs and Albanians use the song as well. There are several sources to suggest that the song is used throughout Southern Albania (see [2] especially in the Laberia region [3]. I could find plenty of sources to suggest a completely different article. Thank you! --Sulmues Let's talk 20:37, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
The fact that the 'Polyphonic_song_of_Epirus' article is in this template does not mean that they are used only by Greeks.Alexikoua (talk) 20:50, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
It implies that it is part of the Greek culture. This template reads "Greek culture". The implication is misleading. --Sulmues Let's talk 10:48, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
Nope, the implication is right, it implies that is part of the Greek culture and it is. If it is part of more than one cultures that's something irrelevant with this template.Alexikoua (talk) 16:14, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
Disruption again[edit]
It seems that the last days, from the moment the new 'restriction' is imposed, a number of spa accounts (Kushtrim & Stupidus Maximus) and ips have become aware and therefore very active, since they know that their job is much more easier now. No wonder the specific ip, that likes to follow me around [[4]], didn't lose the opportunity to come here too. For the history, this template was a target of one of Sarandioti's sockpuppet Alarichus, and his removals are almost identical as the ips.Alexikoua (talk) 22:31, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
New source[edit]
Per this [5] new source, the following places should be added to the template, and appropriate changes be made to the relevant articles. Athenean (talk) 18:49, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
This template was the latest victim of a spa revert-only ip [[6]], one of many that know even how to post an edit summary by misusing wp terms, that also mysteriously know how to 'edit' templates. Suppose just by being instructed to follow me around. History proves that it will strike again soon.Alexikoua (talk) 21:14, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
@Ath.: Actually, we can use it in demographics section.Alexikoua (talk) 21:16, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- You gotta be kidding me, is Shkodër heavily populated by Greeks? Where on hell are Albanians on this country?Balkanian`s word (talk) 21:25, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- The second one is unreliable (400 thousand chams it says ;)). Whatsoever, my question stands too: Is there any Albanian in Albania? Nevertheless, I am not intervening until next year, when (finally) a census on ethnicity and languages will be held in Albania. Too many things to do than. Balkanian`s word (talk) 21:42, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- I really cannot comprehend how you think the presence of a small Greek community means that the town is inhabited exclusively by Greeks, with zero Albanians. So your questions borders on trolling. As for the census, well, μακάρι, but considering the inability to have a free and fair election, I am a little skeptical it will include language and ethnicity or meet international standards. But I digress. Athenean (talk) 21:53, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- Please read the source, it says that in Shkodra (and the other cities) are heavily populated by Greeks. Bah, I am not sceptical, as it will be monitored, and because they do not care really about it.Balkanian`s word (talk) 21:57, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
Chams? You comfuse them with the Chams from Indochina.Alexikoua (talk) 22:11, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- Athenean it does include ethnicity and language and then many articles will have to be adjusted. I would also welcome an ethnographic census in Greece since the last one was in the 1950s and even then a Greek citizen could declare himself a)a Greek b)a Greek speaking as a second mother tongue another language.--— ZjarriRrethues — talk 07:37, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
- Alexikoua I'm not being sarcastic at all and I don't understand why you would comment that I'm being sarcastic, but since Athenean made a remark I thought that a reply politely reminding certain existing conditions was appropriate. If you consider my remarks sarcastic then I'm sure that if you examine them you'll realize that I'm simply recounting official policies of certain countries, which under no context could be considered sarcastic. I tried to be as brief as possible per WP:FORUM as I don't want to detour the current discussion.--— ZjarriRrethues — talk 17:15, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
- It seems this template was the target of the recent drive-by initiative of Pakapshem. The user is informed that if he continues such an activity: personal attacking [[8]] and without discussing [[9]], a new block would become inevitable. Actually, after a long-term block, massive removals of sourced content is something that should be avoided. If there is any objection with this template, it's better to discuss them on this taklpage.Alexikoua (talk) 10:52, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
The template has significant amounts of unsourced and unsubstantiated information such as adding 5-6 Albanian cities with no Greek communities at all to the part of the template that talks about the modern settlements of Greek communities. The articles of these cities do not speak of any greek communities in these cities. Those cities have to be taken off from the template. --I Pakapshem (talk) 17:44, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
The sourced content[edit]
Athenean, you have to excatly show the sources and the qoutes from the sources that Bilisht, Erseke, Tepelene, Leskovik, Permet and Narte have significant greek populations or otherwise the info has to go. I found no sources or even claims in the articles for these cities about there being any greek populations. --I Pakapshem (talk) 18:15, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Check again this discussion and talk:Narte, we have a number of fine sources. If a specific work sounds somewhat exaggerated you can express your concerns here. But the bibliography is just fine.Alexikoua (talk) 18:29, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
I checked, go read my answer. The sources are 2 and they're far from being fine, and they talk about greek speaking populations and not greek populations. Narte is only one village, either way. No sources or claims in the articles of Bilisht, Erseke, Tepelene, Leskovik or Permet of there being any greek populations. You can't just add cities to your template without having any proof of any significat greek communities existing in these cities. --I Pakapshem (talk) 18:51, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Read the 'new source' section's fist line, there is a another source.Alexikoua (talk) 20:03, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Which new sources and where? --I Pakapshem (talk) 20:30, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
there are some greeks in the district of permet but i too doubt that there are that many...if any...in the town18.104.22.168 (talk) 22:06, 9 June 2010 (UTC) in the other areas im almost sure that there arent any...alex youre reaching here be reasonable220.127.116.11 (talk) 22:07, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
alex many of those sources are citing activists, cultural organizations etc who unfortunately exaggerate often..based on the same sources we could speak of hundreds of thousands of chams like balkanian said we need to put these numbers in order some time18.104.22.168 (talk) 22:10, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
If there are Greeks living today that's not the case. We are talking about traditional precense and the geographic definition of 'Northern Epirus'. Take for example Chams template. Chams have gone but they tradinionally used to live there. It's not a demographics template, or if a community is majority/minority.Alexikoua (talk) 05:52, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Show me one source that says about there being a traditional presence of greeks there? --I Pakapshem (talk) 14:22, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
hmm..i see your point and i dont disagree the only problem is that much of the greek population of 'northern epirus' with the exception of the southwest and himare wasnt greekspeaking but also vlach and albanian which would be a point of dispute with many editors since the descendants of these populations dont feel any connection to greece anymore...but anyway i still have doubts about SOME places for example why would you include e.g. Tepelene at all..it was always an albanianspeaking muslim place (the greek claims in the paris peace conference were quite exaggerated to be honest...) or why did you include Bilisht? im also not sure about the mention of all those northern places (shkoder, tirana etc.) even if some greeks live there..similar is Durres which was inhabited by greek populations along with latins etc. until late medieval times but what has it got to do with greeks in modern times? you dont have to clutter up the template with places of little to no relevance..126.96.36.199 (talk) 14:15, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
and IMO you should use districts rather than towns becoz theres greek population in the districts but not necessarily many in the towns..220.127.116.11 (talk) 14:16, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- How do you know any of this? Are you kidding me? Saranda and Gjirokaster for sure have Greek populations. I can see a case for removing Leskovik and maybe Erseka, but the rest all stay. Athenean (talk) 16:28, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Korca, Erseke, Bilisht, Leskovik, Permet and Tepelene are definitley going. No mention whatsoever in the article of there being any greek communities at all, let alone significant ones. --I Pakapshem (talk) 17:02, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
ATHENEAN asked: "How do you know any of this? Are you kidding me? Saranda and Gjirokaster for sure have Greek populations. I can see a case for removing Leskovik and maybe Erseka, but the rest all stay." --- gjirokaster but especially sarande have a greek population but for example permet DOESNT...but the permet district does thats why im saying use the districts you dont clutter the template also..can you also argue why tepelene of all places should stay?? korce could stay since there were populations that sympathized with greece in the past and because of moscopole which though aromanian-speaking mostly was a center of greek culture which back then was the high culture of the christians all over the balkans19:47, 10 June 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk)
- Regarding Permet, we have this source [10] that categorically says that the town itself was inhabited by Greeks. I rest my case. Athenean (talk) 19:50, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
What page? Who is this guy? Political parties of Eastern Europe? Hardly believable. All the above cities mentioned by me, will go pretty soon since there is no proof of any greek populations in them. --I Pakapshem (talk) 20:58, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
athenean this is the least...anyway the districts cover the towns also and the permet district should be included but you didnt tell me why you want to include eg Tepelene..? btw can you give me a page from that source?220.127.116.11 (talk) 19:53, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
i cant see that page...but what i can see is '[omonoia] received substantial support from the ethnic Greek minority concentrated in the southern districts of sarande and gjirokaster' and thats where the absolute majority of greeks are these days..with the exception of himare and as i said before and please keep it in mind its hard to fit the slightly more complex sociohistorical phenomena in orthodox albania among non-greek speakers with regards to greek nationalism in a single template...otherwise we could include even berat which would be ridiculous184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:07, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Polyphonic Music of Epirus[edit]
Rm Polyphonic Music of Epirus from the template. As we worked on that article, that showed the music is NOT apanage of the Greek culture, so if you keep that music in the template of the Greek Culture in Albania, is clearly POV. Thank you and please let me know if you disagree in my talk page. --Sulmues Let's talk 15:47, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- Ridiculous. Polyphonic singing is part of the Greek Culture of Albania. It doesn't matter that it is ALSO part of neighboring cultures, and that is the most POV reason for removing it. This Template is "Northern Epirus region & Greek culture in Albania", not "Northern Epirus region & Exclusively Greek culture in Albania". Anything that is part of Greek culture in Albania belongs here, simple as that. Athenean (talk) 16:25, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Also, haha ridiculous for real. It's not also part of neighboring cultures, but is also part of the so called greek comunity in Albania. Polyphonic Music of this kind is clearly Albanian, as it is recognized and protected as an oral treasure even by UNESCO. At best the so called greek minority has tried to immitate the Albanians. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSa1mZrBq1g --I Pakapshem (talk) 16:59, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Don't jump to conclusions. It's a UNESCO documentary, it's not simply a youtube video. Watch before you comment. --I Pakapshem (talk) 17:41, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
RFC: Is Polyphonic song of Epirus appropriate for this template?[edit]
Is Polyphonic song of Epirus appropriate for this template? The polyphonic song of Epirus, a region divided between Albania and Greece, is a song that is part of both nations, Albanian and Greek and this transpires from the article itself. This template is called Greek Culture in Albania. Is it appropriate that the article be part of the template? Sulmues Let's talk 18:08, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
You gave the answer yourself, this is part of both nations, in the region of Epirus: Greek is one of these cultures and so it should stay here. Alexikoua (talk) 18:55, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Polyphonic singing is not part of Greek Culture in Albania, since it's part of Albanian culture and it has been so since the beginning of time. If greeks try to sing polyphonically it just means that they're trying immitate the culture of the natives. I say it should be removed from the template. --I Pakapshem (talk) 19:37, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- "...since the beginning of time..." Just like that lunatic on youtube whose video you posted a link to. Athenean (talk) 19:46, 10 June
So UNESCO is a lunatic organization?--I Pakapshem (talk) 20:51, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
i pakapshem...sorry but i have to disagree here various kinds of polyphony exist among greeks albanians AND vlachs in some places. its a SHARED tradition and i doubt you truly know its origins and obviously theres no evidence from the 'beginning of time' either...188.8.131.52 (talk) 19:51, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Guys, had I wanted Greek or Albanian editors in this RFC I would have just asked for a third opinion. I want established editors who aren't from the Balkans. Would you please mind striking all of your edits in this RFC or transfer them into a higher paragraph? Thanks! --Sulmues Let's talk 20:18, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
RfC2: Is Polyphonic song of Epirus appropriate for this template?[edit]
Is Polyphonic song of Epirus appropriate for this template, which reads Greek culture in Albania? The polyphonic song of Epirus, a region divided between Albania and Greece, is a song that is part of both nations, Albanian and Greek and this transpires from the article itself of the Polyphonic song of Epirus. This template is called Greek Culture in Albania. Is it appropriate that the article be part of the template? Sulmues Let's talk 18:08, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
I don't understand why this has been moved one section down. Several editors have already replied above.Alexikoua (talk) 10:12, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
- I see no problem with having it. It's part of the shared culture of both groups in this region, so why not? Fut.Perf. ☼ 11:23, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
- Well, the template's name is not Shared Culture between Greeks and Albanians, but Greek Culture in Albania, therefore having the Poliphonic song with that template and within that template simply implies that that's Greek Culture only. --Sulmues Let's talk 15:22, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
Moved to Northern Epirus[edit]
This edit is problematic if the template includes "Greek Culture". That's why I moved to simply Northern Epirus. --Sulmues (talk) 16:42, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- How is it problematic? Care to explain? Korce was part of the Autonomous Republic of Northern Epirus. Besides, that is not a reason to remove "Greek Culture". Athenean (talk) 16:44, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Korce has been part of Bulgaria, Serbia, Ottoman Empire for 13 centuries, and we don't have templates for those, but we find ARNE's template which was there for two months. I would suggest that the two be split. One template for Northern Epirus, which is a geographical concept, and another one for the Greek culture, which is a cultural concept. Not necessarily the Greek culture is a predominant one in Northern Epirus and the two concepts together in one template are misleading. Setting geographical borders through some Greek culture that is present but not widespread in all Northern Epirus reveals a battleground mentality and the template, as it is, simply shows a chauvinistic view. If I have 1% of the population of Korce with Greek origin and in the bottom I find "Greek culture" as a template I really wouldn't want to read wikipedia anymore, because I know that a nationalist has written that. --Sulmues (talk) 16:49, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- That is not a reason to split the template. Splitting the template is a non-starter. NE is not just a "geographical concept" (what does that even mean?). Greeks and and Greek culture go together. The rest of your post makes no sense (Not necessarily the Greek culture is a predominant one in Northern Epirus and the two concepts together in one template are misleading. Setting geographical borders through some Greek culture that is present but not widespread in all Northern Epirus reveals a battleground mentality and the template, as it is, simply shows a chauvinistic view.). What chauvinism? What "battleground mentality"? Please don't toss insults like that around. Seems to me like all this is about is that you don't like seeing the word "Greek" in the Korce article. Well, I can't help you with that. I you don't want to read wikipedia anymore, then don't read it. Athenean (talk) 18:56, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Until there is no Greek culture in Albania article, the Template should read "Northern Epirus and Greeks in Albania".--Sulmues (talk) 20:33, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Black History Month
Throughout the entire month of February, The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign will be hosting a variety of events to celebrate Black History Month. Check out their calendar of events for location, time and event details!
University of Illinois Golf Course
Our 36 Hole Championship Orange & Blue Golf Courses were built in the 1950's and 1960's. The Orange Course was built first in 1950 and followed by the Blue Course in 1966. Both courses are very exciting to play and present many challenges including sand, water, trees, and green undulations.
Bob and Rita Gold Welcome you to a home that R.G. and Isabelle Herriott Rayburn built and moved into from a nearby log cabin in 1874. It remained in the same family for more than 100 years. The Gold's have maintained the charm and originality of this classic 9-room farm house, while updating it for modern living. It is tastefully furnished with antique country furniture the Gold's have collected over the past 25 years, and features Early American stenciling on the walls.
The White Dove Garden and Gallery
Lovely gardens, great large new painting studio, apartments and overnight accommodations. Within walking distance to downtown Champaign, West Side Park and the University of Illinois Campus.
The Champaign Garden Inn is a stunning Victorian mansion built in 1900. Located in the Sesquicentennial neighborhood, our Champaign IL bed and breakfast is centrally located and walking distance to the recently re-developed Downtown area. When you arrive at the Inn the first thing you will notice is the gardens. We have numerous garden beds and grassy areas surrounding the Inn, designed to bloom throughout the season. The expansive wrap around porch and wicker furniture provide a perfect place to sit and enjoy the gardens. Through the front door you will be greeted by your innkeeper, Kevin Allen, and our two adorable doggy mascots, Dasher and Princess.

Tori Amos on her traveling Bosendorfer piano, which is shipped to accompany her to concerts. When she's home, she plays a second, 2.8 meter Bosendorfer. More, from a story in yesterday's Financial Times:
"You have to pick one that matches your personality, and these pianos are each unique. It's like Stradivarius with his violins, each one is different from the next." The sounding parts of Bosendorfer's instruments, like those of Stradivarius, are made of spruce from Italy's Flemme Valley. The trademark Bosendorfer quirk is the nine extra keys in the lowest register, the only piano to diverge from the centuries-old standard 88. Amos is a fan of the extra keys. "They're my sub-woofers," she says. "In a live show, they have a great effect. The low sound really kicks you in the stomach."
Amos visited the Bosendorfer factory in Vienna recently and was impressed with the workers' artistry. "When you get into the inner Bosendorfer sanctum, the guys have their hands on this precious wood and are looking at naked pin-ups of beautiful women's bodies and listening to "Sticky Fingers" by the Rolling Stones. It's not vulgar, though, it's about crafting beautiful instruments with sensuality."
Amos said, "When you pick the right piano, it's like a love affair. Your instrument becomes a family member, only these ones are like great wine, they last forever. The worms will have eaten me and my Boozy [Bosendorfer] will be sitting there, knowing every one of my secrets."
Bosendorfer sells fewer than 500 pianos a year; Steinway sold 8,100 last year. 99% of concert pianists in the US, and 95% worldwide, play Steinways.Powered by Sidelines

Read an Excerpt
The Big 5-OH!
By Sandra D. Bricker
Abingdon PressCopyright © 2010 The United Methodist Publishing House
All right reserved.
Chapter OnePrudence leaned over the edge of the pond and gazed at her reflection.
"What's happened to me?" she exclaimed. "I looked like a perfectly normal young donkey when I left home this morning."
"The journey has taken its toll," Horatio HootOwl replied. "But just one dip in the Enchanted Pond, and you'll surely be revived."
Prudence lifted her head and closed her eyes.
"Braaaaaaaay," she whimpered. "Oh, me, oh, my. Braaaaaay."
"No, no," Horatio said, rubbing his feathered wing over the fold of Prudence's smooth ear. "One dunk in the water, and then a nap in the sun, and you'll be good as new. You'll be a new Prudence."
She chuckled at that. "Do you promise?"
"I promise," said her friend. "You'll be a brand new Pru."
* * *
Liv dug the shovel into three inches of snow and pushed as hard as she could, then tossed it to the side of the driveway. Three more reps followed before the muscle down the back of her arm throbbed in response. It used to take much longer for her old body to react to physical labor in this way.
Time marches on, she thought. Whether we like it or not.
"Hey, neighbor!"
Liv looked across the white meadow between them and waved at her friend Hallie, who stood at the edge of her garage next door.
Three kids filed past Hallie, all of them bundled up in coats and boots, hats, scarves, and gloves. At thirteen, Jason was the oldest. He had reached the bottom of the driveway by the time Scotty, the ten-year-old, hurried past his mother. Katie, age six, scampered behind her brothers, then she turned and waved at Hallie.
"Later, Mommy."
"Later, sweetie."
"Hey, wait up, you guys," the little girl called.
"Boys, wait for your sister and walk with her all the way to the bus stop, please."
Jason didn't so much as slow down, but Scotty came to a full stop until Katie reached him. The two of them skated along the patches of ice on the sidewalk.
Liv's heart pinched a little as she watched them. She'd had more than her share of obstacles over the years that had kept her and Robert from having children of their own. Hallie was blessed to have a houseful, and Liv envied her that.
"Coffee?" Hallie called out to Liv.
"Half an hour?"
"I'll bring cake."
The thought of cake cheered Liv right up, and she returned to the chore of shoveling a channel up the driveway so that Hallie could bring it safely to her.
A few minutes later, the snow started to fall again, and Liv leaned on the shovel, breathless, and watched the path she'd just created disappear under a layer of white.
"Ah, crud."
Looking around at the colorless landscape of her suburban Ohio neighborhood, Liv realized there was a time when she had considered her hometown to be one of her greatest loves. Nestled into rolling green hills and bellied up right next to the Ohio River, it was such a beautiful and thriving town. Summers in Cincinnati were blue skies and picnics, and winters were powdered sugar-covered treetops and ice skating on Winton Lake. But all that had changed.
Five years had passed since Robert had died, but passing months on the calendar had a curious way of fogging up the glass through which she peered to try and find the time when she still had him with her. It made her head ache to work so hard at looking back for him, struggling to break through the wall of cancer that stood between present day and her beloved past.
Stage 3 Ovarian Cancer. The English language didn't hold four more terrifying words, and, on the chilly morning of Olivia Wallace's forty-eighth birthday, those words were hurled at her like a dagger with four sharp blades. She remembered it like it was yesterday; this particular glass was as clean and clear to look into as a freshly hung window pane.
Two surgeries, six weeks of chemotherapy, and exactly twenty-seven radiation treatments—all of it as translucent and visible as a neon sign on a spring morning. And now, on the other side of the monster, nothing looked the same anymore. In fact, the first snow of winter had fallen overnight, and it seemed just as dreary and dull as everything else within Liv's recent frame of reference.
As she pulled Robert's old canvas fishing hat from her head and shook off the snow, Liv glanced at the mirror hanging over the cherry buffet in the dining room. It didn't escape her notice that her tedious life and gloomy surroundings weren't the only uninspiring things in the room. Her own reflection looked rather bleak as well.
In the six months since making its original escape, her red hair had finally begun to grow back. Lackluster though it was, and despite those silver streaks all through it, at least she had hair again. Her cheeks were drawn, her green eyes seemed slightly sunken and hazeled, and her fair, freckled skin had gone somewhat ashen. Although her energy levels had finally peaked again, she still looked just as tired and drained as she had felt throughout her recent past.
Liv pressed the button to open the garage, and then quickly latched the door before the outside wind had a chance to make its way through. As she counted out scoops of ground coffee, the thump-thump-thump of Hallie's boots on the garage floor signaled her friend's arrival.
"Buenos días," Hallie called as she came through the door into the kitchen. Hallie was always learning something new. Spanish lessons on CD were the project of the moment.
"Morning," Liv returned, setting two oversized cups and saucers on the kitchen table.
"I brought coffee cake."
"What kind?" Liv hoped it didn't have anything healthy attached to it, like fresh fruit. At the moment, she just wanted a pure confection of sugar and sweet.
"Cinnamon swirl."
"Good girl."
"Still warm."
"Even better."
Liv slid across the padded leather bench and settled into the corner of her kitchen booth as Hallie grabbed plates and flatware before she took the outside chair. Liv watched her as she tangled her fingers into her blonde hair and shook off the flakes of fresh snow and then poured two cups of coffee.
"The first snow of the season," Hallie announced. "Isn't it beautiful?"
Liv tilted into half a shrug, leaned onto both elbows, and propped her face up with her hands.
"Or not," Hallie said, raising an eyebrow at her friend. "Feeling a little blue?"
"Blue and blah."
"Oh, I'm sorry. Anything I can do?"
The funny thing was Liv knew Hallie meant it. If she thought it would raise Liv's spirits to do a little barefoot jig across the linoleum floor of her kitchen, Halleluiah Parish-Dupont would certainly oblige. Her friend was a true-blue cheerleader that way. And at forty-seven years old, it seemed almost wrong that all she needed were the pom-poms to actually look the part.
Liv gave her a smile and shook her head.
"Well. There's cake," Hallie said with hope.
"There is that."
Liv took a large bite and her eyes opened wide at Hallie, and then she smiled.
"This is sheeriously delishush," she said through a full mouth. "Did you make thish?"
"No. Bender's Bakery on Compton."
After swallowing a couple of times, Liv let her fork clank to the plate. "It's kind of sad that this is the best thing that's happened to me in days, don't you think?"
"This isn't like you," Hallie observed.
"It's not, I know."
"Can't you tell me what's going on?"
Liv cringed and shook her head.
Suddenly, Hallie gasped and slid a hand over her mouth. "Oh, I get it," she said deliberately, nodding her head. "It's the birthday thing, isn't it? Next month is your birthday."
"Afraid so."
"Liv, you've got to give up the idea that your birthdays are cursed. You know that's not how our God works."
Our God. Sometimes Liv wondered if she still knew Him. But Hallie sure did, and that was a comfort somehow.
"I know it up here," she said, tapping her temple with her index finger. "But it doesn't quite make it down here." She smacked herself dead center in the chest several times.
"So what's the plan then? Just mope around and wait for a piano to drop on your head next month?"
Liv shrugged again, and then plopped forward into her folded arms. "Jimmy DiPlantis dumped me on my sixteenth."
"You dated someone named Jimmy Durante?"
Liv raised her head and grimaced. "Not Jimmy Durante. Jimmy DiPlantis. He made out with Rachel Wagner at my Sweet 16 party."
"Well, it's good to know you're not still holding a grudge."
"And on my twenty-first birthday, I slipped on the ice and fell down a flight of stairs. I had a cast on my leg and my arm for eight weeks."
"That's awful," Hallie said. "Really. That's terrible."
"On my thirtieth birthday, I had pneumonia, and a fever so high that I lost several days and didn't even realize I'd passed the thirty mark until my birthday the next year. When I finally discovered I was actually turning thirty-one instead of thirty, I was devastated."
"Oh!" Hallie exclaimed and covered her grin with both hands. "Honey. That's ... horrible."
"I know. And then there was the big blizzard on my thirtyeighth—"
"Oh, no."
"—thirty-ninth and fortieth."
"All three years?"
"All three."
"Oh, my."
"And you were there for my forty-eighth."
"Ovarian Cancer. Stage 3. The worst day of my life."
"But you're healthy now."
"Yep, I am. And here comes my fiftieth, Hallie. Like a locomotive chugging straight at me." Liv leaned back down into her folded arms again, and the dishes on the table rattled when her head dropped. "I'm just too young to be this old."
"You've got to do something drastic, Liv," Hallie told her. "You've got to bust out of this prison you're in. Gloomy weather, birthday blues, expectations of doom. It's just not healthy. You're acting like Prudence, the lop-eared donkey from my mother's books."
Liv raised her head and looked at Hallie curiously.
"She writes children's books, remember?"
"Yes, I remember."
"Prudence only sees the dark clouds."
"You're comparing me to a donkey?"
"Prudence is more than a donkey, Liv."
"Do tell."
"That's not my point. I think you need a vacation."
"So what are you suggesting? A trip to Club Med?"
"No. Not Club Med. But you do need a break."
"No Club Med? That's disappointing."
"But what better place to take a vacation than ... Florida?"
Hallie curled her hands into the sleeves of her blue cable-knit sweater and grinned from ear to ear. "Did I mention to you that my mom has been talking about coming to visit?"
Liv didn't respond. She just stared at her friend with narrowed eyes and a furrowed brow, trying to catch up.
"She hasn't seen the kids in a while, so Jim and I thought she should come for a couple of weeks."
"That's nice. I guess. Since she hasn't been here in a while."
"Do you remember where my mom lives?"
"Yep. Flor-i-da."
"Okay. What are you get-ting at, Hal-lie?" she mimicked.
"While my mom comes to Cincinnati, her house on Sanibel Island will be completely empty."
"Uh huh." She still wasn't getting it.
Hallie groaned, and then she leaned in toward Liv for emphasis.
"You could go there, Liv, and lie in the sun, get away from Ohio in winter, and celebrate your birthday at the beach."
"It's brilliant."
"I don't think so."
"You have to do this."
"No. I really don't."
"Wait. You're right," Hallie exclaimed. "You shouldn't go lay by the pool and work on your tan and try to get back some of the strength and joy that all those months of cancer robbed from you. Instead, you should just go back to work in the O.R. Spend your time shoveling snow and getting your birthday sick on. Maybe try some pneumonia again. It's been a couple of decades."
Liv's stomach stood up and fell down again at the mere thought of going back to work. She'd always loved her job. The operating room at Providence Hospital was a well-oiled machine, and she'd always been excited to be a part of it. But now, post cancer surgeries and medical reports of doom that she'd barely overcome, it just didn't seem to be the right place for her anymore.
Becky from Human Resources had contacted her twice in the last week, her messages ripe with friendly enthusiasm. But the thought of returning to work, or even just returning Becky's calls, brought such an ominous feeling to Liv's heart that she hadn't been able to bring herself to dial the phone.
Just that morning, she had lain in bed, her eyes clamped shut and the blanket pulled tight against her chin, and she'd done something she hadn't done in a very long time. She prayed that God would guide her in what to do.
"I don't want to go back to my old life," she'd whispered. "But I can't seem to muster up the desire to move forward either."
Hallie reached across the table and squeezed Liv's hand, yanking her back to the moment. "This is the answer for you," her friend stated, as if she'd been in on every moment's thought. "You haven't had a vacation since the trip to Galveston with Robert six years back, Liv."
The memory pinched her. "I can't, Hallie."
"Yes. You can."
* * *
Liv propped the phone on her shoulder with her chin and sighed. She'd forgotten where Hallie had gotten her cheerleaderness. Josie Parish was Hallie's mother. She was Hallie times two.
"Oh, of course, you can, Pumpkin. The house will just be sitting here with nothing to do but provide you a little nesting place."
"Ms. Parish, honestly, I appreciate the offer. I really do."
"Didn't we establish when I was there visiting the last time that you were not going to call me that anymore?"
"Sorry. Josie."
"Okay then. We're on a first-name basis. As close as you are to my Halleluiah, my goodness, we're nearly family. The least you can do is come and babysit my home for a couple of weeks. Oh, do you like dogs, Pumpkin?"
Liv shook her head briskly to make the leap with her.
"Dogs? Umm, yes. I like dogs."
"Oh, that's so good, because my little baby has recently had surgery. She had a bit of a bad jump across the sofa. She's won't be able to travel, that's for certain. You wouldn't mind looking out for her while you're here, would you, Pumpkin? It would really help me out."
"Josie, really, I just can't see my way clear to take a trip right now."
"Of course, you can. In fact, from what my daughter tells me about everything you've suffered through in the last year or so, I'd say you really have no choice. Now, I'm going to make my flight arrangements, and I'll tell Missy Boofer that you'll be here the same day to look after her—"
Missy Boofer?
"—and I'm thinking of arriving on Wednesday. Would that work out all right for you?"
"Well, I—"
"Oh, good. Now I'm off to call Halleluiah and give her the good news. I'll leave you all the information you'll need on the dining room table, and the key to the house will be under the neon pink palm tree in the garden."

The Office of Personnel Management's Innovation Lab needs to prove it's worth keeping around, according to the Government Accountability Office. GAO says the lab doesn't have performance metrics to show how much its ideas are actually helping other agencies. Seto Bagdoyan, acting director of audit services for GAO's Forensic Audits and Investigative Service, tells In Depth with Francis Rose your agency's innovative problem-solvers need help proving they actually exist.

This is a class A, all tube amplifier that is based off of a 6SN7 preamp tube and a 6V6 power tube. It was a fun project, but it's not very practical. The sound is no where near as good as my solid state chipamp, which was half the price as the tube amp. The tubes look really cool though. There is something about retro obsolete electronics that is interesting.
This amplifier was built from a schematic found at http://boozhoundlabs.com/ before the website blew up, I'll post a link to the schematic when they come back up.

Poverty is strongly related to disparities in early child development, school readiness and educational achievement. The early emergence and long-term persistence of disparities underscore the need for effective interventions prior to school entry. Responsive parenting is a promising target for interventions to reduce these disparities. While home visitation programs have potential to influence parenting, access to populations and costs are barriers to implementation. Pediatric primary health care is an innovative opportunity to promote parenting with potential for universal access to the preschool (0-5 year) population and low cost by building on existing infrastructure. The Video Interaction Project (VIP) is designed to leverage the opportunity presented by pediatric primary health care in order to reduce achievement gaps in low SES children through promotion of responsive parenting. VIP's core strategy involves a child development specialist who coaches the parent during videotaped interactions utilizing provided toys and books;review of tapes is used to facilitate and reinforce interactions. Use of VIP strategies at home is facilitated by providing the parent with the tape as well as learning materials and parenting pamphlets incorporating parents'observations and plans. In the first cycle of NIH funding, we performed an RCT that found major benefits resulting from VIP 0-3 (the original 0 to 3 year program) related to responsive parenting and early child development;many effect sizes were in the .3 to .6 range, remarkable for a parenting intervention. These results suggest that VIP is a highly-promising, evidence- based intervention for addressing children's poverty-related developmental and educational disparities. Longitudinal and intervention studies suggest that further enhancement of responsive parenting during the preschool 3-5 year period has potential for additional impact on school readiness, particularly for low SES families whose children are at greatest risk but who have less access to high quality preschool programs. We therefore developed a new preschool component of VIP for 3-5 year old children (VIP 3-5). VIP 3-5 has an expanded focus to help parents engage their children in increasingly rich levels of pretend play and early literacy activities, adding new elements adapted from evidence-based preschool programs for parents to use pretend play and shared reading. This continuation will assess the impact of VIP from birth to 5 years, building on the existing cohort. Families originally receiving VIP 0-3 or in the 0-3 year Control group will be re- randomized at age 3 years to either VIP 3-5 or to a 3-5 year control group. This study design will allow testing of the impact of VIP (0-3, 3-5, and combined) and determination of whether this already-trialed intervention leads to significant improvements in children's long term academic and social-emotional wellbeing. It will also allow testing of critical questions related to optimal timing and dose of parenting intervention during the years prior to school entry. Findings will have broad public health implications related to the role of pediatric primary health care in the promotion of early child development and school readiness in children at risk due to poverty.

Follow Your Dollar: Finding Easy Leads in Your Natural Market
Often overlooked "easy" leads can be found within your Natural Market by Following Your Dollar. To source these easy leads you need to pull out your calendar for the past 6 months and your bank statements and/or checkbook. Identify the small business owners you give your business to. Examples of these prospects are your hairdresser/
If you identify your top 5 service providers, estimate how much money you have spent with them over the length of your relationship with them. For example an executive will average $50 per month for dry cleaning. That's $600 per year. If you have referred others to your dry cleaner, that is more money per year for your favorite cleaner. Now multiply that number by how many years you have been doing business with him/her. Do you think that maybe they value your business? Of course they do!
Next you need to plan your approach. I cannot stress enough how important it is to strategically map out your dialogue with your service providers before you approach them for their personal business and referrals. You should think about the following:
1. Begin with the end in mind, what are you asking them for? Personal business or referrals?
2. When and where do you want to ask them for their business and/or referrals?
3. How are you going to ask them?
a. Tell them how much you have enjoyed doing business with them
b. Remind them how long you've been doing business with them
c. Name drop folks who you have referred to them in the past
d. Explain that you are looking for their support with either their own business, or by making referrals to you from their own database
4. Anticipate what their objections might be in advance and prepare a response that helps them re-frame their thought process
Most small business owners will give a good long term client their attention and consideration. Your business is important to them. At the conclusion of your meeting with them, agree on the next steps to move forward if they agree to do business with you or to give you referrals. Establish the follow up date and meeting agenda. If they do not respond favorably to your request for reciprocating business or sharing referrals, you now know that you should probably take your business somewhere else. Confrontation is nothing more than a collision with the truth. You can say something like "Thank you for taking the time to consider my request. I should let you know that I am looking to do business with people who do business with me. After our meeting, I'm forced to consider taking my business and referrals to your competitor."
Approaching people you already do business with to do business with you increases your own profitability and strengthens your relationship with them. This is the foundation of economic development. Now go follow your dollar!

The organizers of the ICC World Twenty20 are spending a massive three million Pound on security operations to combat any terror threat, according to a report.
Sniffer dogs will used in and around Lord's, the Brit Oval and Trent Bridge, the three venues of the tournament starting on Friday, to detect explosives and every fan will be thoroughly searched on entering the ground, a 'News of the World' report said.
Organisers have roped in 1,000 volunteers to work during the tournament but each one has been vetted carefully.
"Security has proved a problem after the tragedies of Mumbai and Lahore. The security expertise on our panel have put together an incredibly comprehensive security plan and it is revisited on a daily basis," Tournament director Steve Elworthy was quoted as saying by the report.
"The terrorists have become more active and this focuses the mind but we are very confident we have the right plan." Elworthy's security panel is chaired by Sir John Evans, former chief constable of Devon and Cornwall Constabulary. The organizers have also consulted ECB security chief Reg Dickason, the Home Office and Met Police.
