Albrecht Durer and a 1349 synagogue remembered
... have supped coffee in the Wanderer cafe... Possibly. The museum was closed, to Midge's relief, though you can see his Jesu-like self image in all the neighbouring souvenir shops, though no Melancholias... possibly not a great seller. We did find a statue down the street.
So, to the last resort of the tourist. Churches.
We've seen lots... temples, shrines, cathedrals, chapels... Shinto, Buddhist, Hindu, Catholic, Orthodox, Lutheran... Glistening with gold ...
... and then was redone again to make it smaller but most of the basic elements are still the same. They had built a jail to connect to this building so the war criminals did not go into the streets so they would not be killed. We heard about the defendants, the judges and the american lawyer who changed the course of the trial - each defendant passed the buck to their superior and the judge said the ...
For all the time we lived in Germany, we never went to Nuremberg. From what we saw there on this trip we were sorry we didn't. The old medieval downtown area was simply enchanting. What is interesting is the the Emperor never lived in Nuremberg, even though there is a huge castle there. It is a walled city complete with moat and towers at the four corners and a river running through it. Of note the moat was never filled with water and ...

This afternoon we cruised into Nuremberg, the city where Hitler held many rallies, and where the Nazi Trials were conducted after the war. Almost 100% of the city centre was destroyed in 90 minutes of bombing during WWII. Nuremberg has a pop of 500,000, and it was a big trading town dating back to the 11th C.
It's impressive medieval buildings were completely rebuilt using the original stones, after the destruction from the war. We visited the ...
The trials of Nuremberg
Got to Nuremberg quite late, and because of my timing had to pop up the road for food as no one at the desk for me to check in.
Once checked in I did have a double room all to myself, and they do a really good breakfast, so was good value. The hotel is just along the road from the airport, so I expected to be kept, or woken, up by planes. It's actually surprisingly quiet. Went up the road to see some planes take off, but they all went the other ...

Skunks are known for their horrible spray and not their beauty, correct? And evening bags are supposed to be chic and elegant, right? We're just checking, because Tom Ford's latest clutch has us completely dumbfounded. The Tom Ford Skunk Fur Minaudiere retails for $1,660 at Neiman Marcus, and while it's not one of the new department store's absurd new Fantasy Gift items, we believe it would take the same type of sucker to buy this purse.
Chanel's New Hula Hoop Bag is Insane
To be honest, we're not advocators of wearing fur in the first place-but at least a fur coat would provide warmth. Mink, sable, chinchilla, rabbit, and fox fur are used all the time for luxury items, from long coats to the trim on winter gloves. We've even seen raccoon fur used in fashion. But skunk fur? On a purse?
Zookeeper Pranks Crowd With Skunk
Imagine hitting up a swank soiree with the Tom Ford skunk fur clutch in hand. Your palms get a little sweaty, dampening the black and white fur within your grasp. "That's an interesting little purse you have there," says a fellow guest. "What's it made out of?" "The finest Italian skunk fur," you answer, proudly showing it off.
Yeah. That's not going to happen. Sorry Tom Ford. Pepé Le Pew is not amused and neither are we. If wealthy shoppers can't smell this sham a mile away, then can consider this a warning. Don't buy it!

- The antibiotics are beating back the infection in my right leg. A week ago the infection had encircled the leg and covered about 80% of the lower leg. Now the circle is broken and it is about 20% of the leg. Remarkably if the dog brushes up on it, a kid hits it, or if anything falls on it, it still falls on the painful part of the leg.
- A lot of you have asked what the doctors are doing about it. The don't really know why it the infection keeps reoccuring. About 10 times now I have been declared cured and within days of having absolutely no trace of it for weeks, it comes back when I come off the antibiotics. Each time it comes back with more force, faster, and harsher and I get way sicker in the process. In all of the opinions I have gotten, the doctors keep telling me that this isn't supposed to happen.
- I still feel like death. There is a feeling that the infection has done long term damage to my body, especially the last time. Mentally I feel better. The fever takes a weird mental toll on you in that it is exhausting to be either freezing and trying to get warm or burning up and trying to break the fever and stay hydrated. It's all I was thinking of for several days. Despite staying in bed, I was exhausted and not sleeping. I was too tired to even read anything.
- I try not to get angry or frustrated over it but I had some choice words for a doctor who was reminding me that my core fitness needed improvement. Umm, i have been told to stay off my feet for 14 months now, I barely go out and of course my fitness is going to suck.
- I was going to take this week off my StarPhoenix column to recover as I had nothing left in the tank but I read a great Sports Illustrated column on this years NCAA football season and how he had predicted how Ohio State would be an offensive juggernaut. It made me think back to all of the predictions that made so much sense in the pre-season of any sport and how few played out that way. I had some fun predictions for 2016 provincially, municipally and for the Riders. Prediction columns are fun, where else can I talk about Eric Olauson and Bill Belichick in the same space?
- A lot of you know that I have a passion for word processors. With a new Acer E-11 Netbook for Christmas, I am trying out a few right now. I just installed Corel Office which is a slimmed down version of WordPerfect, Quattro Pro and whatever they use for presentations and I am trying a full blown version of WordPerfect X7. I'll let you know how it goes.
- Speaking of word processors, with my beloved Windowns Live Writer being discontinued by Microsoft, there is a new open source version called Open Live Writer. Microsoft has allowed some of their code to be open source (this is a big deal) and it is being developed and upgraded by a team of developers. The biggest difference is that Open Live Writer is compatible once again with Blogger.
- I wish someone would tell Jeb Bush that it is time to pull the plug on his campaign. It's over Jeb.
- The lack of star NDP candidates for the upcoming provincial election tells me that the NDP knows that it isn't going to win. Two relative unknowns in Saskatoon Fairview and Saskatoon Meewasin also tell me the same thing. Cam Broten may be Premier in 2020 but it seems like the goal is 20 seats (and be a government in waiting in 2016).
- Speaking of Saskatoon Meewasin, has there ever been a MLA with a lower profile then Roger Parent. No website and he even uses a @gmail.com email address on his bilboard ads. I can't even find him in Google News (you search for "Roger Parent" and "Saskatoon", he isn't there). He is like the Saskatchewan Liberal Party of the Saskatchewan Party caucus. I would say this about a New Democrat, Liberal, or Saskatchewan Party MLA but if you are going to do so little work in being a MLA, you don't deserve to even win a nomination or be elected.
- I saw Darren Hill beaking of at Rona Ambrose about this one Twitter but I agree with Rona Ambrose and that is the Liberal Party should have a referendum on changing the way we vote. Moving from First Past the Post may be the right thing (although I disagree with it) but it is a big of enough change to our democracy that we should have a say in it.
- A couple of things about Brad Wall. More and more his government reminds me of the Grant Devine regime with it's dependance on mega-projects to spur the economy. The stadium in Regina, the Children's Hospital (which we don't need nor do we have the population to support) and the carbon capture project. Huge projects that are costing a recently struggling economy a lot of money. I might be okay with this but I don't see a plan from the Saskatchewan Party on how to deal with low commodity prices other than complaining ot the feds (like Grant Devine). Now with no budget on the horizon before the provincial election and a struggling economy, it gives me an uncomfortable feeling that things are worse than we are being told. Of course in the end, Brad Wall might not be here much longer and may have his focus on the federal Conservativ leadership race.
- I am suprised by the Cleveland Browns inability to acknowledge and get help for Jonny Manziel being an alcoholic and having a drinking problem. There is a difference between being a party goer and what Manziel is doing. I am also suprised by Manziel not being able to control his friends cell phone's. You don't think Tom Brady's friends have cell phones? Yet you don't see those kind of videos appearing of him. In fact with Tom Brady's Facebook, he has done an amazing job of controlling what people see of him.
- This is one of the most damning things I have ever heard someone say of a coach. Despite that it is what destroyed Josh McDaniels, Bobby Petrino (multiple times) and how many other countless coaches. Football is a people business and while we talk of the genius of coaches like Belichick with x and o's, it is their ability to manage and lead men that makes them so impressive. Not just players but assistant coaches, support staff, and even the guys who take care of the field and bring them all together. Chip thought it was X and O's. He was wrong.
- When did Facebook rants become news? Ryan Meili ran twice for the leadership of the NDP, lost both times and would never run for his party again. When he runs provincially or federally under someone else's leadership, I'll take this more seriously but for now I don't see this as big news. I agree that Broten is taking the party to the centre, it's worked well for the NDP in the past under Romanow and Calvert but it has been a disasterous move for the party federally and provincially elsewhere other than Alberta. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Some life changes around here
I was thinking the other day that my life needed a shakeup. So after looking at several possibilities, I have decided to simplify and become more like Bill Belichick. It's so simple it is genius.
- I only have to worry about the weather. If it is cold, I wear the long sleeved hoodie. If it is warm, I put on the same hoodie and cut off it's sleeves. If it gets really cold, I wear a matching undershirt and pull up the hood. I can wear the same hoodie to work, while traveling, and I am sure he even wears it in the pool.
- I don't have to answer any questions directly. If Wendy asks me why the dishes weren't done, I reply, "I'm here to talk about Philadelphia". If she asks why I spent $1000 on the same grey hoodie, "I'm here to talk about Philadelphia."
- I wouldn't have to have any tolerance for dumb people (I got that part down).
- My answer to Mark's report card, "This won't be good enough. It wasn't good enough today. It won't be good enough against anybody else, either."
- Sometimes the most obvious answer will work out, "Any time you lose yardage in the running game, there's a mistake somewhere." Or there is this, "Any time you have a negative play in the running game, it's like getting a penalty,"
- When I screw something up, "That's part of the game, … Sometimes that stuff happens."
In case you are wondering if Tom Brady has lost the common touch
His $20 million mansion has a moat. Â Of course it kind of makes sense as Yahoo! Sports puts it.
And the moat should keep the mounted infantry attacks on the Patriots quarterback to a minimum, which should help Bill Belichick sleep better at night.
While Brady is extremely well paid, Gisele makes even more than he does (some have called her the last of the supermodels) so I am assuming the mortgage payments are going to be made. Â That being said I remember being in Boston when he was first starting off his career and they had this magazine article about how he was just like everyone else. Â I am just assuming that this is no longer the case, unless moats are much more common in your part of the world than they are in mine.
What went wrong in Denver
Michael Lombardi writes that ownership didn't buy into McDaniels plan
When Belichick was hired in Cleveland, Modell had no idea what he had, or what Belichick could eventually become. He never thought in three dimensions, or hired with a plan; he just hoped for success, in large part because Modell based every decision on what the media and the fans thought. Modell had a wonderful heart. He wanted to make his fan base happy, therefore hiring Belichick after winning a Super Bowl with the New York Giants was great, and firing him after the fans revolted was also great — never mind he just extended his contract.
Belichick's success in New England was due to his experience in Cleveland — that Modell financed and Patriots owner Robert Kraft now enjoys. Any time a team hires a young coach or a young executive, one must think in a three-dimensional way. Does he have the aptitude to be a successful leader? Does he have the willingness to grow? Do we have the strength to handle the turbulent times?
Modell paid for Belichick's education as a head coach, an education that has to be lived, not learned. There are no schools to attend to be a successful coach in the NFL. And just because an assistant works for a successful coach does not ensure success when it comes time for a promotion to the head coach's chair.
When the Broncos hired McDaniels and turned over all the power to him, they had to understand there would likely be tough times. But did they?
As an outsider looking in, when the Broncos hired McDaniels, I thought they were willing to change the direction of their organization. Having spent a brief time volunteering my services as a consultant to Mike Shanahan, I saw firsthand Denver's ridiculous spending on players, the failure to have a personnel department, and the constant approach to repair as opposed to rebuild. Therefore, when the Broncos fired Shanahan following the 2008 season and decided to change the course, eliminating the free-spending of the past, the move signaled to me that they wanted to try the Patriot Way, which centers on building a total team through the draft, cut spending in free agency and develop coaches and players from within.
Initially, it made sense to me, as most owners tend to hire the opposite of what they just fired. Firing McDaniels 28 games into his tenure as the head coach is bad for both parties. It wasn't enough time for the team to be fully developed, or enough time for McDaniels to grow into the job.
And therein lies the problem — the Broncos wanted to change, but were not committed to change. Once they slipped into a different world, they longed to be back to their old ways of doing things. They really love the Bronco Way.
Never mind they have only won one playoff game in the last 12 years. Never mind they lack talent on the field, or are going to be paying three head coaches as a result of McDaniels' firing. Never mind they might have to take two steps back to move forward. Clearly, this move means the Broncos long for their old days, and potentially bringing John Elway back into the organization signals how much they miss those days.
'We love you, this won't change a thing'
This is a great story in ESPN about Brendan Burke telling the rest of the Burke family that he is gay.
Your dad thinks through everything. Dad is big, confident and continuously radiates a persona that is rough, gruff, unrelenting and unapologetic. He has a cold, expressionless poker face straight out of a Clint Eastwood movie. Yet, he does this all with the most subtle of Irish smirks that says there is more behind this thick skin. And there is. He calls you "Moose" because you have always been a big kid. He cares very deeply about you and your happiness. You say he has always been there when you needed him. And he has a great sense of humor. Imagine that.
But on this night in 2007, you are petrified of your dad. Because you, Brendan Burke, at 19 years old, are about to tell your dad, Mr. Testosterone, that you are gay.
This is how he told the family.
It is Dec. 30, 2007, and you are in Vancouver with Dad for the holidays to break the news. His new family lives in Vancouver, and his Ducks are in town. You go to the Canucks-Ducks game, and, obviously, Dad is pretty emphatic about wanting to beat Vancouver, his former employer. You root like hell for the Ducks to win so he is in a good mood. But the Ducks lose 2-1. Of course, Daniel Sedin scores a goal against Anaheim, and his brother Henrik adds two assists to help beat Dad, the man who traded for the twins' draft rights in 1999 while he was running the Canucks.
You almost don't tell your dad and stepmom as a result of the loss. But you are flying back to Boston the next morning and you want to tell them in person. You feel as if you are going to throw up as you pace the hallways of their condominium. Just as your stepmom is about to go to bed, your younger sister, Molly, grabs you by the wrist and directs you where to go and gives you a look that says, "You can do it. Get it done now. I'm here for you."
Just a week before, your older sister, Katie, is the first family member you tell. You had targeted telling your family at Thanksgiving but got salmonella and spent the entire week in the hospital. So you push back your announcement to Christmas.
You are driving home from a family event in Marlboro, Mass., when you decide you want to say it during the car ride. Finally, after a 45-minute ride, you pass the city limits sign of Boston and you know you have to tell Katie. It is incredibly difficult, but your sister is very supportive. Of course she is, you tell yourself, she's Katie. That same night, you tell Molly and your mom. Everyone is great. Mom tells you she isn't surprised and had expected it from the time you were a little kid. Moms.
You tell your brother, Patrick, a day or two later. Patrick turns off the car blaring "The Hold Steady" CD, and you tell him as you are walking out to the car to bring in bags. Patrick, like Dad, never one to be fazed, says something along the lines of, "I love you. This doesn't change anything. Now pick up that suitcase and bring it inside."
But, now, telling your secret to Dad is another story. Molly's reassuring hand guides you to the couch for the moment of truth. It's time to tell Dad, a most public example of hockey machismo, that you are gay.
Finally, you say it. Awkwardly. You basically stumble along trying not to make it a big deal before just blurting out, "And I love you guys and wanted to tell you that I'm gay."
There is a brief silence.
Dad is surprised when you tell him that you are gay. He never suspected at all.
Your stepmom speaks first: "OK, Brendan, that's OK." And gives you a reassuring smile. Then your dad says, "Of course, we still love you. This won't change a thing."
Your dad and stepmom both get up and hug you and say they love you. You and your dad then sit there alone for about 15 more minutes watching hockey. Your heart rate is still at a snow-shoveling level. You then hug Dad again, and you go to bed.
The relationship never changed after that.
Whatever happens in your life, whatever career path you choose, you know Dad is in your corner. His long shadow of a hockey résumé that once looked like a crutch might now prove to be just the thing you and others need — a powerful and eloquent voice shouting from the mountaintops.
This is far and away more than what you personally expected from your hockey-famous Dad as you prepared coming out to him. When people ask you about your dad's reaction to your Vancouver sit-down, you initially say, "He's been great, but I don't think we'll see him at any gay pride parades any time soon. But he has been really supportive."
So, you are startled this past summer when you get a call from Dad saying, "Hey, Toronto Pride is this weekend, you should fly up." So, sure enough, you fly up, and you and Dad go to the Toronto Pride Parade together.
If someone had told you before coming out that your dad, Brian Burke, would be attending a gay pride parade with you, you wouldn't have believed it. You never suspected Dad would disown you or anything like that, but the way he has handled it and the way he talks about it now has, honestly, really moved you. He was a little awkward about it at first. Today, he doesn't even think twice about it.
It's a good story and sadly not all parents reacted the way the Burke family did.
I'll leave the last word to Brian Burke from the story, "I hope the day comes, and soon, when this is not a story."
Kyle Orton will do fine…
For those of us who are trying to tell ourselves that things in Denver will be fine without Jay Cutler and Josh McDaniels will be great, here is are some stats to think about.
- Super Bowl wins for Mike Shanahan without John Elway: 0.
- Super Bowl wins for Chuck Noll without Terry Bradshaw: 0.
- Super Bowl wins for George Seifert without Steve Young or Joe Montana: 0.
- Super Bowl wins for Jimmy Johnson without Troy Aikman: 0.
- Super Bowl wins for Tom Landry without Roger Staubach: 0.
- Championships for Paul Brown without Otto Graham: 0.
- Super Bowl wins for Tony Dungy without Peyton Manning: 0.
- Super Bowl wins for Bill Belichick without Tom Brady: 0.
Don Shula seemed to be the exception who proved the rule although in Miami, they did not have a RB or much of a defense.  Not a lot of Super Bowl titles are won with the Trent Dilfers of the world.
Stay Classy Coach
Michael Silver has a great column on the lack of social skills shown by many in the Bill Belichick coaching tree.
It's the latest testament to Mangini's apparent lack of tact and people skills, personality traits he honed under his estranged mentor, New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick. Like two other Belichick disciples, new Kansas City Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli and neophyte Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels, Mangini has marked his arrival at a new organization this offseason by alienating established leaders while projecting a self-assuredness that borders on arrogance.
With three Super Bowl titles as a head coach and a prior record of success as a brainy defensive coordinator, Belichick, a future Hall of Famer, can get away with his power trip. Whether Mangini, Pioli and McDaniels are able to pull it off will depend upon how many football games their respective teams win, something that often depends upon the men in uniform buying into the program.
In the meantime, in Cleveland, Kansas City and Denver, the new guys in charge seem to be consumed with winning mind games, a strategy I'm not so sure will serve them well over the long haul.
In Denver, McDaniels' sloppy handling of his interactions with Jay Cutler after an unsuccessful attempt to trade him at the start of free agency led to the loss of a franchise quarterback, largely because the 33-year-old coach was obsessed with demonstrating his unquestioned authority.
In K.C., Pioli's arrival as the all-powerful general manager after years as Belichick's right-hand personnel man was soon followed by a less-publicized incident involving a star player. According to Kansas City Star columnist Jason Whitlock, perennial Pro Bowl guard and locker-room leader Brian Waters asked to be traded or released after becoming offended by the arrogant attitudes of Pioli and his newly hired coach, Todd Haley.
Waters, a source told Whitlock, flew to Kansas City in February specifically to meet with the new GM and coach in an effort to become familiar with their leadership plans. The source said Pioli told Waters he had no interest in meeting and that Haley began a hallway conversation with the player by proclaiming that 22 guys off the street could win two games, as the Chiefs had in '08.
Mangini, fresh off a 1-4 finish with the Jets that got him fired after three seasons – he had a 23-26 overall record (including a playoff loss) in New York – arrived in Cleveland with a similar swagger. One of his first moves was to orchestrate the firing of director of pro personnel T.J. McCreight, the highest-ranking personnel man remaining after Lerner's dismissal of general manager Phil Savage, and one of the people who'd interviewed to replace Savage. (Mangini, hired while the GM job was still open, successfully lobbied Lerner to choose Ravens personnel executive George Kokinis.)
McCreight, a source said, was called into the office of team president Mike Keenan, who pulled out cell-phone records showing that McCreight had engaged in conversations with reporters – an act frowned upon by the paranoid Mangini. McCreight explained that speaking with the media was among the duties with which he'd been entrusted by Savage, but he was nonetheless terminated; he has since been hired as the Cardinals' director of pro personnel.
I hate defending Bill Belichick but he has always treated players well. Before he learned how to do this, he flamed out in Cleveland and left there with not many Christmas cards from the organization or the players.  It may work in the short term but players play for a coach they respect and who they think respects them. Witness the success that Mike Smith had in Atlanta doing the exact opposite that the Belichick coaching tree is trying to do. He respected the veterans, listened to their input, and when the going got tough, they believed in their coach.
Looking outside football, contrast this with how Rick Hendrick of Hendrick Motorsports treats people
In 25 years of racing in NASCAR's top series, Hendrick has built a powerhouse organization of 500-plus employees who have a fierce loyalty to their boss. They love working for "Mr. H.†and put 100-percent effort into job performance. If the grass is possibly greener elsewhere, few ever bother finding out.
Steve Letarte started as a high schooler stocking the parts room and grew up to be Jeff Gordon's crew chief. Gustafson came aboard in the chassis shop when he was 24 and was Busch's crew chief six years later. Chad Knaus started as a tire changer on Gordon's original "Rainbow Warriors†pit crew, left briefly for a bigger job elsewhere, then returned to build Jimmie Johnson's three-time championship-winning team from scratch.
Even Tony Eury Jr. has come full cycle. He spent childhood summers sweeping floors and polishing cars at Hendrick with his grandfather, Robert Gee. When Earnhardt chose HMS in 2007 over every other team in the industry, Earnhardt used this example to demonstrate his affection for Hendrick: When Gee, one of the first employees at All-Star Racing (now Hendrick Motorsports) had aged well past his ability to perform as a fabricator, Hendrick let him continue to work.
He treats his employees as family – firing Casey Mears, a close friend of Hendrick's late son, Ricky, was a gut-wrenching business decision – and goes out of his way to offer a helping hand.
Sidelined several weeks with a fast-spreading sinus infection that kept him away from the track, Hendrick returned for last week's All-Star race on a scaled-back schedule. Thursday, he was still making his rounds at Lowe's Motor Speedway, site of Sunday's Coca-Cola 600, reconnecting with people he had not seen in several weeks. When an industry veteran updated Hendrick on an ailing family member, Hendrick said to him, "Tell me if there's anything I can do to help.â€
That kind of attention is what separates Hendrick from the other car owners. Of course Joe Gibbs and Richard Childress and Jack Roush have good employee relationships, but none have established the kind of companywide adoration that Hendrick receives from his race team, his automotive organization and virtually everyone inside the Cup garage, including his competition.
Who would you rather work for?
A New Era Starts in Denver
Charles Robinson writes in Yahoo! Sports about new coach Josh McDaniel and new QB Kyle Orton.
"The distance you throw the ball down the field, to me at times it can be very overrated,†he said. "I'm worried about accuracy. I'm concerned with them reading the plays the right way, getting it to the people that need to have it on time. For the amount of times you throw the ball 60 yards in a season, I think that's significantly overrated, unless you're a team that's going to throw 10 of those passes a game, which we're not.â€
McDaniels doesn't say this in a cocky or naïve fashion – two labels that were tattooed on his forehead by some media during the Cutler fallout. Instead, he says it with a few core beliefs when it comes to Orton.
First, in four years in the league, Orton has been given the chance for realistic progress only twice: first as a rookie in 2005, and then again last season as Chicago's primary starter. And both times, areas of his game became appreciably better. Second, Orton is still young (26), and McDaniels sees room for every area of his game to grow – be it mechanics, decision-making, defensive recognition and so on.
"We think we can make him better,†McDaniels says. "We think we can make him a really competitive, solid quarterback in our system. I'm never going to think otherwise. Everything can get better. He can improve in every area. If [a quarterback] ever stops believing he can get better at something, then he's lost an edge.â€
He says this with supreme confidence. He never lacks for that. It's a byproduct of being the son of legendary Ohio high school coach Thom McDaniels, and then shimmying up the coaching ladder during his 20s under the tutelage of Nick Saban and Bill Belichick.
He has stolen volumes of knowledge from all of them. Preparation and detail from his father, like knowing that when a player watches film, he should be just as concerned with everything going on in the picture as he is with the activity surrounding himself. Relentless work ethic from Saban, who expected almost scientific precision in practice and games. And the ability to mold and tie together all aspects of coaching, motivation and leadership from Belichick.

An animal rights group has filed a complaint against Marquette University because of a physiology class where small turtles are anesthetized and killed with a hammer blow to the head.
The complaint from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals urges the university to replace animals used in Biology 171 with non-animal methods in use at other universities.
The organization posted an action alert Monday on its Web site asking people to contact Vice Provost for Undergraduate Programs and Teaching Margaret Bloom and demand the university change its practices.
At issue is an experimental physiology course taught by Marquette University biology Professor Edward Blumenthal. According to a lab worksheet obtained by PETA, "(a) red-eared slider turtle (Trachemys scripta) is anesthetized and then killed by a hard hammer blow to the head, followed by pithing of the brain. The connections between the carapace and plastron are cut with a saw."
Officials from PETA say they found out about the biology class from a student whistleblower who felt concerned about the treatment of the turtles.
"As a Catholic university, Marquette should follow in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi and teach students compassion for all beings, instead of forcing students to maim and kill animals," PETA Director of Laboratory Investigations Kathy Guillermo said in a statement.
After receiving the original complaint from PETA in November, Marquette University's Institutional Review Board reviewed Biology 171 and found the course met protocols in the Animal Welfare Act and other federal statutes and regulations related to animals, university officials said.
A lab worksheet indicates the turtle exercise is part of a cardiac physiology laboratory, where students record the effects of drugs on the turtles' hearts.
The PETA complaint says the student whistleblower witnessed one turtle, after receiving a hammer blow to the head, cough up blood and try to walk away. But Marquette spokeswoman Brigid Miller said the university found no evidence of that.
Aside from the turtle experiment, the PETA complaint also condemns Blumenthal's course for other animal-related exercises. As part of the class, students apply electricity to the muscles of pithed frogs - frogs whose spinal cords have been severed in order to dissect them.
They apply different drugs to sections of rabbits' aortas and record muscle contraction and relaxation. They place rats in drying chambers to measure the rats' metabolic rates and, in some cases, mark the rats with an ear punch.
University spokeswoman Brigid Miller said these exercises do take place in Blumenthal's course, but that all animals are anesthetized.
Blumenthal was unavailable for comment.

Local Initiatives to Integrate The Health Care Safety Net
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) is an opportunity to coordinate care among health care providers and transform local nets into seamless systems of care. The study conducted by Dr. Annette Gardner, PhD, MPH, at the Philip R. Lee Institute for Health Policy Studies, UCSF, shows safety net integration activities in five counties—Contra Costa, Humboldt, San Diego, San Joaquin, and San Mateo—suggests much progress has been made to this end in these counties.
All are focusing on systems-wide integration, cross-provider integration, and patient-level integration. In addition to undertaking diverse integration initiatives, there is evidence that many of these initiatives are resulting in coordinated care and strengthened partnerships between providers and county agencies, facilitating implementation of health care reform. Though there are differences in capacity and the resources that counties bring to bear, there are specific strategies and models that can be adopted by others in particularly in the areas of specialty care access, mental health and primary care integration, patient care coordination, and outreach and enrollment. This Report describes the factors that affect a local safety net's ability to develop integrated delivery systems and lessons learned from the implementation of 30 safety net integration "best practices".
Video Presentation: Part 1 Part 2
The comparison of five counties that have made great strides toward creating integrated delivery systems corroborates earlier UCSF findings that great capacity and willingness to reengineer health care for the medically underserved resides at the county level. These counties have the partnerships and shared commitment to create seamless systems of care. The presence of safety net collaboratives and/or nimble organizations, such as Medi-Cal managed care organizations and clinic consortia, afford counties the ability to secure resources and implement integration initiatives individual stakeholders might not otherwise undertake. The analysis of the 30 safety net integration "best practices" points to several common factors for success, including leadership support at the top, shared leadership among organizations, perseverance of effort, open communications, and buy-in at all levels.
However, delivery system gaps and financial challenges loom large. Funding for these efforts varies by safety net stakeholder, and is piecemeal and project driven. While the high capacity to meet the needs of the newly insured and remaining uninsured bodes well for continued progress in all five counties, these counties nonetheless face significant challenges, be it the erosion of county funding or gaps in access to primary care. Key strategies to expand safety net integration include targeted support for some types of integration activities (e.g., safety net ACOs), IT infrastructure, and broadbased networks, as well as state policymaking that is sensitive to county safety net variation and leverages ACA provisions and policies to support integration (e.g., the Health Benefit Exchange).

Owner/ Manager purchased this apartment in 2011
This apartment is located in the most central district of Paris, the Latin Quarter (close to the Louvre, Marais, Hotel de Ville, The Seine River, Palais Royal and Notre Dame!).
When you are a parisian, you love to leave in this area as you can go everywhere in Paris only by foot or by bike
The apartment:
- is fully equipped with everything you should need (towels, bed linens, hair dryer, free WIFI internet, TV, coffee machine...)
- has been newly renovated for short term rental
- is located close to grocery stores, bakeries, restaurants and more to experience the Parisian lifestyle.
We are sure you will have an excellent stay in Paris!
My husband and I just spent a week in Paul's Latin Quarter flat while he was in Paris for a conference. It worked out perfectly for the two of us and we had everything we needed. The apartment is true to the photos and was given to us in great condition. A spacious, refurbished and fully-equipped kitchen, a bathroom with his and hers sinks, a cosy living room, and a comfortable bedroom. The wifi connection was top-notch (great for getting in touch with the office back home). Paul and his staff provided excellent customer service. The apartment location cannot be beat! Located just off the rue de la Montagne Sainte-Geneviève (side note: for fans of the Woody Allen film 'Midnight in Paris' - this is the street where Owen Wilson waits for the car that transports him back in time at midnight). There is a great Lebanese restaurant at the end of the street which where we enjoyed take-out on several occasions. The Bombardier pub up the road was fun on trivia night. It was cool being down the road from the Pantheon as well, which has been recently renovated and cleaned up, just beautiful. The whole neighborhood is charming and safe. Would rent from Paul again in a heartbeat!
We enjoyed our stay in this apartment very much. The apartment was comfortable, had a nicely updated kitchen and bath, and it was close to a lot of good restaurants and most of what we wanted to see in Paris. The bed was very comfortable. The apartment was great for two adults, but it would have been a bit crowded for more. The building was quiet, mostly occupied by local families, and the street was quiet as well. We would definitely stay there again.
My husband and I stayed here for a little while in August and we've truly enjoyed the apartment and the neighbourhood. I love Paris and used to come here a lot when I was younger but I've never rented an apartment. I was a little uncomfortable with the reservation process in the beginning because I wasn't at all familiar with it, but Paul was very kind and helpful in guiding me and making sure everything goes as smooth as possible. We loved the location, it's literally minutes away from the main attractions, you can find plenty of lovely restaurants with excellent food nearby. The apartment worked great for the two of us, we had lots of space, and we felt really comfortable. We liked that it was modern, clean and really cosy. We are thinking about booking it again in the future.
Very convenient location! The place is very cute and looks just like the pics! And the apartment is very clean, comfortable and in a safe, pleasant area. Quiet street but plenty of good shops and markets, excellent bistrots right on our corner and other bars and restaurants frequented by local people. We appreciated the position for access to the Seine and Notre Dame, Latin Quarter, Pantheon. Metro and RER close by and it's a easy place to catch a cab too! Our stay in this apartment was fun! Would definitely stay here again.
Perfect location for exploring Paris. Right in the center of the city close to bars, restaurants and attractions. Great place for sharing with friends. Paul's parisian apartment is very beautiful and clean. In fact it looks better in reality then in pictures. It has lots of style and space. We would definitely stay here again !

... We didn't miss the TV though except for Downton Abbey & Coronation Street!!!
You eventually burn out & get tired of moving so often! It's pretty amazing how easy you can live in 8ft x 22 ft (176sq ft) of living space, that's about the size of our kitchen at home!! We are both ready for home, I've decided everyone needs winter to hibernate - veg out & curl up ...
The midnight hour is close at hand...
... a great cook! The Teen Angst night itself was hilarious. The host Sarah read some poems and diary entries of her own which were very funny and set the tone for the evening. Reine was up first and she had the crowd howling with laughter. Girl done good. Most of the readers were very very funny and my face hurt by the end of the night. Hurty face is always a good sign after a night out :)
Until the next morning when I had to be up at 5. But that's OK... The Rockies were calling!
Interactive cinema and a galloping sloth.
Today was forecast wet and wet it was. I rose at 6am to join Arthur on his commute and after coffee purchase caught the bus to Stanley Park. I had arranged to meet Denise at the aquarium at 10 so that left plenty of time for a walk around Stanley park. What I hadn't realised was the guide map was not to scale so the section marked as an inch after the bridge bore no resemblance to the distance of four inches I ...

HalloweenCostumes.com asks mobile shoppers what site they prefer before directing them there. Exclusive research shows what consumers expect from mobile shopping.
Bill Siwicki
Here's what most e-retailers with m-commerce sites do: They detect that a device requesting a web page is a smartphone, then automatically redirect that smartphone from the desktop site to the mobile site. All of that happens in the blink of an eye and a smartphone user never sees anything but the mobile site. Buried at the bottom of most m-commerce site home pages is a link that reads something along the lines of Visit Full Site, giving shoppers on smartphones the option to shop the site they know from their desktop shopping.
But e-retailer HalloweenCostumes.com takes a different approach. Rather than automatically redirect smartphone users to its mobile site and then include a View Full Site link on the mobile home page, when HalloweenCostumes.com detects a smartphone requesting a web page, the retailer displays a window asking the mobile shopper, "Would you like to view our mobile site?" If a shopper touches OK, she is sent to the m-commerce site; if she touches Cancel, she is sent to the desktop site.
Half of HalloweenCostumes.com's mobile shoppers choose the desktop site, while the other half choose the mobile site, reports Troy Eaves, the retailer's vice president of marketing, in the upcoming March issue of Internet Retailer magazine, which explores in depth why many consumers dislike mobile sites.
"The mobile site is a little clunky and does not have all the features and functions of the desktop site," says Eaves, who adds the e-retailer is testing design enhancements to create a richer and easier-to-use mobile site. "We have a lot of repeat customers who simply are more familiar with the desktop site."
The conversion rates for mobile site shoppers and shoppers on smartphones using the desktop site are about the same, Eaves says. However, time on site is much higher for smartphone shoppers using the desktop site. Ironically, Eaves says this is probably because shoppers using the desktop site on smartphones have to pinch and zoom and swipe to navigate the site, and that takes time.
"Ultimately, we'll probably move to responsive design to better serve all customers on all devices," Eaves says. Responsive web design creates one site that adapts to fit any screen size.
Pottery Barn also treats mobile differently than most retailers. If a consumer types PotteryBarn.com into her smartphone's mobile web browser, the chain retailer automatically redirects her to its m-commerce site. However, touching select links in Google search results leads shoppers on smartphones to full desktop site pages. Pottery Barn then displays a button that reads View Mobile Site on top of the desktop pages, which is contrary to the common approach that displays a mobile page with a View Full Site link at the bottom. Pottery Barn declined to discuss its strategy.
As part of the Internet Retailer-exclusive research, Retail Systems Research LLC, a research and consulting firm that follows mobile commerce, asked consumers to agree or disagree with some statements about mobile shopping. Two results may point to where retailers' mobile sites are lacking. For example, "Retailers should use past purchases to inform personalized recommendations and discounts." 41.3% of consumers agreed, 32.3% disagreed and 26.4% were neutral. And, "I want my favorite retailers to know who I am online, mobile and in-store." 29.9% agreed, 37.8% disagreed and 32.3% were neutral.
"The more specific or timely or location-based a retailer can be, the more likely a consumer is to say, 'Yes, I want that from my retailers,'" says Nikki Baird, a Retail Systems Research managing partner. "That is the key to unlocking personalization for retailers—the more value they can deliver and the greater the relevancy from a context perspective, the more willing consumers are to engage with retailers on a more personal basis."
Several retailers with extensive m-commerce experience tell the same story: their first mobile site was lame, the second mobile site is much better, but responsive design is probably the ultimate answer.

Additional Aid Will Further Deter IMF Deal
BMI View: The additional US$4bn in aid pledged by the UAE will provide further support to the Egyptian economy and the interim government. On a political level the assistance will negate the impact of the US' decision to reduce military aid as well as pushing back any deal with the IMF until mid-2014 at the earliest. In addition, the money will help provide support to the currency over the short term.
The UAE's decision to provide another US$4bn in assistance to Egypt will provide further support to the currency and give additional breathing space for the interim government. The UAE signed an agreement with Egypt worth US$4.9bn, however US$1bn of this had already been pledged. More than US$1bn of the assistance will be used on fuel, while much of the remainder will fund development projects including the construction of 15 wheat silos with a capacity to store 15,000 tonnes each.

Flora and Fauna
Class containing the Decapoda (crabs, crayfish, lobsters, shrimp), Peracarida (amphipods, isopods, mysids), Euphausiacea (krill), Phyllocarida (sea fleas), Stomatopoda (mantis shrimp), and others.
If your website is about keeping these animals as pets, submit to http://dmoz.org/Recreation/Pets/Fish_and_Aquaria/ .
Amphipoda comprises about 6000 small, mostly marine, species. Most amphipods are laterally compressed in contrast with the depressed isopods. They have no carapace and have six pairs of abdominal appendages.
The largest and most familiar crustaceans belong to Decapoda. The 10,000 species of crabs, shrimps, crayfishes, lobsters, and their relatives are decapods. The first three segments of the decapod thorax are fused with the head to form a cephalothorax and their appendages are maxillipeds. The remaining five pairs of thoracic appendages bear simple or chelate walking legs.
Isopoda is a large and diverse taxon. Isopods are common in marine and freshwater habitats and there are important terrestrial and parasitic suborders. It includes the familiar terrestrial pill bugs, woodlice, and sea slaters, and about 4000 less familiar marine species.
Leptostracans, or phyllocaridans, are small, benthic marine crustaceans and there are about 20 species. Recent leptostracans are considered to be relics of a larger Cambrian taxon. They have an enormous bivalve carapace which encloses the thorax and most of the abdomen, and the compound eyes are stalked.
Stomatopods are predatory crustaceans that live in the shallow waters of tropical and subtropical seas and are known as the mantis shrimps. The carapace covers only the rear part of the head and the first three segments of the thorax. They are armed with a powerful pair of appendages topped with barbed tips, used to stab and snag prey and some have a blunt, calcified club on the elbow. They often attack prey larger than themselves.
