The biomedical model has been the hallmark of recent drugs because the last century. Tracing its origin from Vesalius , within the 16th Century, to Rene Descartes who proposed the mind-body dualism, to the process of rationalization of the Western civilization in the Enlightenment Era, and the progress in science with the Germ theory by Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch, the biomedical mannequin that's dominant in the present day holds true to the notion that every one illness and signs come up from abnormalities within the physique, with linear causality, which is termed as 'illness' (Hewa & Hetherington, 1995).

MOUNT OLIVE TOWNSHIP, N.J., Aug. 30 — If only they were 3,000 feet closer.
For Gregg and Ken Kaplan, that is the estimated distance between their 40-acre industrial site, which now relies on a septic system operating at full capacity, and the sewer line in this northwest Morris County township. Ever since the brothers bought the site four years ago, they have paid about $35,000 a year in fees to the town to prepare for that 0.6-mile connection, which they say will allow them to rent out vacant buildings on the site.
But now they are worried that their plans may be torpedoed by proposals from the state's Department of Environmental Protection that could declare more than 300,000 acres of land — including their 40-acre site — off-limits to sewers.
"If we had known this beforehand, we never would have bought it," said Gregg Kaplan, standing next to an abandoned office building on the property that is now obscured by vines, grass and weeds.
The Kaplans are among thousands of people who stand to be affected by New Jersey's first overhaul of its sewer rules in almost 20 years.
The proposed changes are part of regulatory actions aimed at preserving and improving water quality. And because sewers provide the underpinning for development — from homes to highways to businesses — the rules provide a vital blueprint for what the state may look like for years to come.Continue reading the main story
State environmental officials are expected to issue the final rules in the next few months. The deadline for public comments just passed, and developers are saying that the proposals are too restrictive. Environmentalists say there are too many loopholes. Local officials, especially in the state's northwestern municipalities, say that their redevelopment projects may be thwarted. And planners worry that the rules may end up doing more harm than good.
"Look at all the constituents they have to please, and they're pleasing no one," said Dianne R. Brake, president of Plan Smart NJ, which promotes high-density development in town centers. "The rules protect land from sewers, not development. Our assessment of the wastewater rules is, it will discourage growth in growth areas, encourage sprawl in the rest of the state and therefore degrade the water."
State environmental officials take issue with those criticisms. To appreciate the magnitude of their task, they say, it helps to remember that four-fifths of the state's 566 municipalities are covered by obsolete plans that date to the 1990s or earlier.
At the same time, environmental officials say that safeguarding natural resources ensures a better quality of life for all residents.
"The process has not worked very well, so the intent of this proposed set of regulations is to remedy that," said Lawrence Baier, director of the division of watershed management at the Department of Environmental Protection. "For the building community, it becomes a tool to identify the right places to grow. The environmental community always wants the greatest level of environmental protection that they can get, and the one thing that sticks in my mind is that the overriding theme of their comments is it is less bad. From them that's a rave."
The push to update New Jersey's sewer rules has had a knotty history. Previous efforts have bogged down, usually because of vociferous objections from both Democrats and Republicans.
Under the new rule — officially called Water Quality Management Planning Rule N.J.A.C. 7:15. — all wastewater management plans must be updated immediately. The task of updating those plans will shift from 161 local entities to the state's 21 counties. But the pressure is still intense, because the counties will have only nine months to comply.
If the counties do not come up with a viable plan, the state can ban additional sewer service, even for areas that had been approved.
Environmentalists say that the proposal has some good elements and complements another recent rule protecting an additional 900 miles of rivers and streams and carving out a 300-foot buffer against any future development on either side of a waterway. But they say that excluding sewers from any environmentally sensitive area larger than 25 acres is too broad, and can lead to the development of smaller areas with threatened and endangered species.
Environmentalists are also worried about the ease with which existing projects could be grandfathered before the rule takes effect.
"These exemptions constitute a loophole large enough to run a bulldozer through some of the most environmentally sensitive areas in New Jersey," wrote the Sierra Club, in a letter to the state.
In its 41-page letter, the New Jersey Builders Association said bluntly that the proposal should be scrapped. It said that the proposal flouted existing guidelines under the State Development and Redevelopment Plan, and did not take into account the complexities of the State Supreme Court's Mount Laurel decision mandating housing for low- and moderate-income residents throughout the state.
"Where will people live?" the builders' association wrote: "The message is clear: in D.E.P.'s eyes there are no appropriate areas for growth in New Jersey."
Sewage and utility authorities have complained that wastewater treatment plants that were built in anticipation of new sewer users may be underused. And that lack of use — called a stranded asset — can have financial implications, said Steven Rattner, chairman of the Musconetcong Sewerage Authority in Budd Lake, which is part of Mount Olive Township.
"My question is, will the N.J. D.E.P. buy back these stranded assets at fair market value?" Mr. Rattner said during a tour of his facility.
For their part, local and county officials say that the nine-month window to comply is simply too fleeting, and that they do not have the resources.
Some wonder about the political dynamics, too. Susan M. Zellman, the freeholder director in Sussex County, just to the north of Mount Olive, observed that the most affected areas were in the rural northwestern sections of the state, which are heavily Republican. "To me, it's all part of the big conspiracy," said Ms. Zellman, who is a Republican.
Mr. Haier dismissed that theory. "This rule is an environmental protection rule," he said. "It was developed based on environmental sensitivities and the departmental mandate. And that's as far as it goes."
Mr. Haier said the goal was to work with local communities, not antagonize them. But he hinted that he could go only so far.
"If I know a county is working diligently, cooperating with us, there is an opportunity for me to extend that deadline under the rule," he said. "But I will say this: I will use that discretion sparingly. I want to put my foot on the gas."Continue reading the main story

IKEA collaborates with tom dixon and HAY on new visions of furniture for modern living
today, IKEA has announced two distinct collaborations with british designer tom dixon and danish brand HAY.
together with HAY, IKEA looks to explore the future of scandinavian design identity, through the realization of a collection of furniture that encourages socialization in the living room. comprising furniture, lighting, accessories and textiles, HAY and IKEA have taken a production driven approach towards all of the pieces which will be produced using the swedish company's advanced manufacturing techniques—showcasing what design reflects, and what is possible within IKEA factories.

set to be launched in fall 2017, the products will embody a classic scandinavian feel featuring light colors, high quality and clean lines. with each of the versatile and functional solutions for everyday life conceived with the use of unconventional materials, and assembled through smart construction, overtime they will be updated and adapted to the changing needs of the living room.
'the way we work with accessories in the collection is to connect and combine colors for a fresh modern look. for the accessories we work with at IKEA, we have explored many different materials including, aluminum, metallic, terracotta, textiles, plastic and wood to create a diverse range with different uses that we are excited for,' says mette hay, co-founder of HAY. 'I think the time we are living in is so much about sharing experiences, the future is so much about collaborations. I feel that it is about doing the right collaborations, where both parties are bringing something to the table, and with IKEA and HAY I really felt that we both brought a lot to the table, and we did this together', she continues.

'I was so enthusiastic about this cooperation with IKEA. this cooperation is with one of the best supply chains in the world, with some of the best product developers and engineers in the industry. I knew that we could learn from IKEA, and hopefully they could also learn from us', adds rolf hay, co-founder of HAY. 'we immediately felt that IKEA was a very open culture, so they were not afraid of sharing. from my point of view, that was one of the reasons why I was attracted to working with them, that we could actually learn something from one another', he concludes.
the collection will be comprised furniture, lighting, accessories and textiles

working together with a shared sense of values, mutual curiosity and a shared interest in learning, HAY and IKEA have collectively sought to work in a conversational way. together they have tried to understand what the true functional and emotional needs of the modern 21st century home are. a particular interest in how people work, eat, socialize and rest in urban environments across the globe were the focus. a key ambition was to re-imagine what the basic products that everyone needs are, and to create new designs to meet those requirements; by formulating designs that will serve more fluid functions and emotionally connect with their users, while also aging well over time. the resulting collection acknowledges changes that are taking place, how life is becoming more fluid and the idea of function by room is dissolving. the products combine innovation, aesthetic confidence and a shared ambition to make design accessible to all.
'when we see the world is changing, how people live is changing, how people use products is changing, we have a duty to reinvent our basics. still with a typical IKEA design sensibility, so that you can see that it is us from the beginning, so you can see that it relates to our Scandinavian heritage, which is part of being IKEA', says marcus engman, design manager at IKEA. 'doing this together with HAY, a design company that stretches from the boarder of architecture to fashion and who has contributed strongly to today's perception of Scandinavian design, yet with an international reach, is really exciting', says engman.

the partnership between IKEA and tom dixon looks to challenge traditional solutions for comfort in the home through the development of new products for modern living. more and more people are living in smaller spaces, which makes the boundaries within the home move and dissolve. for many, the living room is now a place to eat, drink, relax and socialize—together, or apart through technology. together with tom dixon, IKEA sets out to explore what these changes mean for the future of living, and how to successfully resolve the tensions they create.
'we can see big changes in how the space in our homes is becoming more fluid and we are exploring what this means for both the design and production of furniture. working with tom is exciting because he shares our curiosity and drive to find new ways to make things better', says marcus engman, design manager at IKEA. 'our immediate focus is on seating solutions. this may seem simple but not only do we intend to build a system that makes it possible to create versatile furniture for modern living we are going to do it in a way that will have implications for the way that many products are made in the future', continues marcus.

'we are in the midst of a huge revolution in how people create, manufacture and consume – the furniture business has been slow to respond to the opportunities, but now is an amazing time to experiment in new ways of working. in this case in a fresh collaboration directly with the consumer, industry and global experts', says tom dixon.
IKEA and tom dixon will challenge the traditional way for production furniture… and much more. the resulting products will be launched in august 2017.

A lot of companies have a disconnect between what management and workers think is productive. Management focuses mostly about how they can do their job better. This makes sense but it needs to be thought of in the context of the workers they are managing. In order to do their jobs better (or make their jobs easier) mgmt comes up with new initiatives (probably with the help of high priced consultants) that sound great in an executive conference room. This results in new initiatives being piled on the workers without thinking about the 20 other initiatives they are already tasked with, not to mention the job they were actually hired to do. This is why initiatives fail and productivity gets reduced. From the workers' view it feels like the man behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz is somewhere continually making their job tougher. Workers mumble, "I can't get my job done with all of these initiatives!" Management wonders, "Why isn't my job not easier with all of these initiatives in place?" This continues on for a while until it reaches a breaking point and then you need another consultant to come in and wipe the slate clean…and start the cycle over again with some new initiatives.
Management should focus more about how to make their workers' jobs easier, not more complicated. People want to do their job and do it well (if you've hired the right people). How can you better empower them? New initiatives should have the dual goal of not only making management more productive but also making the workers more productive. Coming out with a new initiative? Make sure it replaces or at least encompasses two other existing initiatives. Also, make sure there's a concrete schedule and workers have the right tools in place to accomplish the initiative. The workers will respond by working harder and being more productive.

New and Improved (?)
January 20, 2015 Leave a comment
As any loyal (or disloyal) followers have noted, I haven't posted in a pretty long while. My family can assure you I haven't run out of things to say.
I have, though, struggled finding time enough to spout off.
Over the past few years, I've focused on essays of between 800-1000 words. Doing so allowed me to ramble my way in and out of clarity, but I also had the opportunity to re-introduce myself to the kind of academic writing my students needed to master. I was, for lack of a better cliche, practicing what I preached.
However, there is no denying that writing essays takes time. I tell my students every semester that the three keys to writing are practice, practice, and more practice. Like most skills, writing well is a product of habitually writing every day.
While I know some folks who can write well and write quickly, I'm not one of those folks. More importantly, though, I can't write in loud places or if I'm interrupted. I have a friend out on Long Island who willingly (on purpose and everything) travels into New York to a particular coffee shop twice a week to write. I, on the other hand, rarely write at home if my family is around. Mind you, they respect my privacy and avoid my work area, but their mere presence in the house is distracting. Sitting in a coffee shop trying to write while Todd and Margot are ordering an Orange Mocha Frappuccino makes my head want to explode.
Likewise, I have a difficult time writing at work if I can't disconnect the phone and shut the door. For instance, as I wrote the previous sentence a student called, wondering why her .380 GPA placed her on academic suspension. (Yes, the decimal is in the correct spot). The conversation was short, but the interruption breaks the train of thought. Resuming the blog, then, requires reading the previous sentences, reminding myself of my goal, and then getting back on those tracks headed, one hopes, in the same direction. Writing isn't, as some might posit, a free flowing activity without structure or boundaries.
Certainly, we might draft haphazardly as we let thoughts spill out on the page, but a finished piece of writing is an articulation of our ideas and thoughts–our attempt at giving meaning to some thought or organizing some moment in time via language. Writing, for lack of anything better to say, is a search for truth through metaphor, symbol, and structure.
One of my problems (and my excuse) for the last year or so is that I was director of our Faculty Development Center, director of Faculty Mentored projects, teaching classes here and there, and trying to be a father and husband. Honestly, whatever truth I might have searched for was usually lost in a memo to someone who probably didn't have time to read what I wrote.
Things don't show signs of letting up anytime soon. While I'm no longer directing our faculty development center, I've recently been tagged as the last person standing (everyone else took that proverbial step back) as our interim Dean of the Freshman College. I don't see much uninterrupted free time in my future. In fact, I've had three other interruptions since the paragraph above.
Time or not, though, my plan is to return to blogging with a new and improved (?) approach. Gone will be the long essays that might take me all day (or all week) to write. Instead, this blog will become a quick-hit aggregate of stories that interest me in any given day. I'll begin linking to articles, videos, or other electronic items and offering pithy (and hopefully witty) commentary that might offer insight or incite outrage. I'll begin taking note of books I'm reading or stories I'm teaching. Time permitting, I'll do some flash reviews as I go.
Ultimately, though, the goal is a more regular interaction with blogging and an attempt at creating some order and organization to my thoughts and ideas in a shorter form. I'm sure the occasional long essay might appear, but I suspect those will be fewer and farther in between.
First, though, the next week or so will be an act of shameless self promotion on my part. One of the side benefits of writing the blog every day was a burst of creativity and discipline as a writer. Over the years, I've written (and published) a few short stories. Last Christmas, I revised those stories and produced a few original stories, submitted them to Lamar University Press, and we'll see Love Is Not A Dirty Word and other stories on bookshelves in about a month. Feel free to click on the photo above and pre-order your copy.
Over the next few days (or weeks), I'll be posting the first 100-200 words of each story to wet your appetite (or spoil your lunch). I'll begin each post with a brief story about where the story originated, but then we'll let the tale take over. After you read the openings, if you want to find out the rest of the story, you'll have to pony up the bucks or convince your local library your town needs a copy.
And trust me, you really want to know why Love is Not a Dirty Word.

"Now using the drum, demonstrate to your partner what an 'anxious feeling' would sound like," instructed singer/songwriter and Teaching Artist, Sue Trainor. The middle-aged student (and artist) followed Trainor's lead and smacked the drum with ferocious thumb strokes, demonstrating a fretful rhythm. The grinning and enthusiastic Trainor nodded along with encouragement.
That was the scene in the library at the Southwest Baltimore Charter School on September 19th. Twenty or so adults, ages ranging from 30 to 60, sitting around small round tables – being taught, by an artist, how to teach. The Teaching Artist Institute (TAI) Seminar, a program partnership of Young Audiences of Maryland, Arts Education in Maryland Schools (AEMS) Alliance, and the Maryland State Arts Council (MSAC), housed artists of all kinds including a classical pianist, an actor, a storyteller, a ceramic artist, a blues musician and more. The three-day retreat was the first phase of the TAI program which gives professional artists the skills they need to create an arts-integrated residency that can be brought to elementary, middle and high school curriculums. The program develops the capacity of both parties – artist and teacher- to ensure students are engaged and inspired through the use of the arts in the classroom.
TAI, which runs through the winter, pairs a Teaching Artist with a certified public school teacher. The Teaching Artist programs are field tested in the classroom between November and February. From there they become full fledged instructors, working closely with their teaching partner to use art – music, dance, visual arts or theatre – as a learning tool – connecting STEM disciplines and enriching young minds. The collaborative effort will ideally sustain arts-based learning long after the artist has left the classroom.
I attended a morning session that had the room split in two featuring the Teaching Artists – playwright John Morogiello and the aforementioned Ms. Trainor. Both instructors used creative methods to reach out to their fellow artists – stressing the importance of communicating effectively and creatively.
In a video I've included below, Teaching Artist and dancer, Kwame Opare, asked a very poignant question, "How do we get kids to want to 'break in' to school versus 'break out'?" Well Kwame, I think your work with the Teaching Artist Institute may be the answer.
"If nothing else, it makes the kids want to be there." Opare said. "If nothing else it keeps them coming to the school. Now that we have them, what can we do with them?"

makoy replied to WhiteFang's topic in LEGO LicensedThanks for the review. This minifig could have been outstanding if TLG created a new mould for hair and glasses combo like what they did for Robin in TLBM. I understand why they settled for the print instead... Therefore, the price does not seem to justify the decision made. Maybe it is very good for Disney/Pixar collectors though.

The Legonater replied to Waterbrick Down's topic in Heroica! The RPG!i suppose I need to be clearer. My concern is less that the Arrogate will soak up all of Dyric's damage, and more that Matthias may fail with his scrolls and Dyric will instant kill her. Which has a pretty low margin of chance working out like that, but it is a possibility.

Lord Duvors replied to Waterbrick Down's topic in Heroica! The RPG!"Very well then, we'd best be on our way. If you need someone to help you walk feel free to ask." Throlar blinked. At this point he wasn't really capable of giving this statement a suitable response, still being rather too shaken by the words of his guardian to fully register another revelation so soon afterwards. Still, he couldn't let this pass unremarked; "Well... one of the planets that neighbors Olegaia, Galidoor, has been proven to have oceans and seas on it's surface. It's not unlikely that it could harbor life, civilized or otherwise. Nor is it implausible that other such worlds could exist. But to have it confirmed in such a way is... well, it's unexpected to say the least. I would dearly love to hear about them if you ever have the time to tell. Or perhaps even journey there..." his voice trailed off at this point, as if he was unable to truly comprehend the meaning of his own words.

WHITE MARSH -- Both General Motors Corp. and its workers saw the minting of the Allison Transmission plant's first hybrid transmission yesterday as much more than just a new product. It is a lifeline for both.
The nation's largest automaker is producing the industry's first hybrid transmission for light trucks here in a bid to regain market share from foreign competitors such as Toyota Motor Corp. If it is a success, GM plans to expand the product line, which could mean new jobs at the plant.
That is the hope shared by Blake Barb of Bel Air, whose job is to deliver materials to the assembly lines. He feels fortunate to be at Allison after seeing more than 1,000 GM workers laid off at the van assembly plant on Broening Highway in Southeast Baltimore two years ago. Many of those workers are still waiting for jobs to open up at Allison.

Ana Chiritoiu
Ana Chiritoiu is a PhD candidate working on kinship among Roma in a town in southwestern Romania. Her dissertation explores the role of antagonism in sociality, looking at how it plays out both in the distinctions between Roma and non-Roma, as well as in the relations between the Rom.
Ana got her BA from the Faculty of Letters at the University of Bucharest, with a dissertation about popular culture in recent Romanian prose, and worked in the literary industry before turning to anthropology. For her first MA, she did fieldwork in a Turkish village in south-eastern Romania, documenting how ethnic belonging and cultural heritage are mobilized and performed in order to attract various forms of aid from Turkey, Muslim organizations, the state, and the EU, ranging from food donations to the restoration of mosques. For her second MA, she did research in a village in Transylvania, and investigated the aftermath of an ethnic conflict described as the pinnacle of anti-Roma violence in postsocialist Romania, in order to contrast the activist understandings of the case with its vernacular renditions.

|Unlock Forum posting with Annual Membership.
I'm going to put this in the Questions for PBS forum too, but I thought I'd post one here for my buddies too..:P Mary had asked me about this because I mentioned it elsewhere; there are some things that make a book technically unpostable here, that really aren't too difficult to be repaired. I started looking into this stuff a while back, partly because I go to library sales & thrift stores to find used books, and I wanted to find info on how to repair minor damage to books and clean them without damaging them.
First of all, for basic cleaning - I always use Goo Gone. Here's a link with the different types you can buy at most grocery or drug stores: http://www.magicamerican.com/products_gg.aspx
I like the spray gel myself. It's easier to just spray it onto a cleaning cloth, if I don't want to put it directly onto a book's surface, and it also comes in larger sized bottles, which are more practical & economical. It removes stickers and most sticky substances (including food) from book covers - either dust jacket covers on hardbacks, or the shiny covers of paperback books. Just don't spray it onto any unlaminated paper surface - it WILL stain anything porous enough for it to absorb into. Likewise if your covers are excessively cracked or worn, so that you can see the paper under the shiny cover, you're going to get absorption - and thus stains - and discoloration anywhere that the product makes good contact with paper or thin cardboard surfaces. Anywhere you have paper exposure under the laminate surface, but still want to use this to clean the surface, always put a small amount of it onto a cleaning cloth and not directly onto the surface of the book itself. From there, gentle rubbing of the sticky goo should do the trick. In the case of stickers, try to work it under the sticker using a small plastic scraper, your fingertips, and a dry, soft cloth. If the stickers are paper, you can put a few drops directly on them and let it absorb into them first for easier removal - just use your finger or a cotton swab to rub it in a little and let it sit for about 30 mins. Goo Gone is also very effective for general cleaning of book covers. Again, use a dry, soft cloth, and spray or drop the product onto that, rather than directly onto the book, if you're in doubt.
On basic (& some advanced) book repairs & protection, here's a link to a pdf manual from Brodart (they make book repair products): http://www.ioba.org/StepByStepBookRepair.pdf
They cover a lot of topics, including how to laminate books - which is a good option for preserving older paperbacks. From my personal experience, you can use just about any commercially available roll book/document laminate product for this, but the satin finish or non-shiny ones work best. The shinier the product is, usually the further it is toward acidic on the ph scale, which can cause discoloration on any paper surfaces the adhesive side of it comes into prolonged contact with. The non-shiny laminates (and this includes clear contact paper) are softer and more flexible, and do not tend to cause any discoloration to paper over time. The only negative aspect to that is that they tend to not be as strongly adhesive, so you should have a small rubber tile roller (I got one at the hardware store), to roll across the surface of the laminate, and get rid of any air pockets between it and the book surface.
On spine cleaving - this is more difficult and doesn't always work perfectly, and you need some specific items to do it. I'll have to transcribe this, because there's not much of anything to pull and paste online. For tools & supplies, you'll need:
#1 A book weight. This is usually a brick or something of comparable size & weight. You want to wrap it in heavy paper, flannel, or felt - something absorbent, that will protect your book surface from scratching.
#2 Some good, flexible, all purpose glue. Brodart Bind Art Adhesive is really the best stuff going for book repairs. I bought mine from ebay, but there are other sources online, and you can also try art or hobby supply stores. If you can't get that, use Elmer's. Brodart is the best though, as it remains even more flexible than Elmer's after drying, and it's ph balanced to bond best with all types of paper without separating or causing discoloration - it dries clear.
#3 A flat artist's brush.
#4 Wax paper
#5 Rubber bands - the wide flat ones. Preferably ones that will stretch to go around a book lengthwise pretty easily. Brodart also has what they call "H bands" - which are great, but if you don't want to buy that book repair kit, you can use flat rubber bands.
#6 Dry, soft cleaning cloths. Dish towels or cloths, a cloth diaper, shop towels, or bar towels are all acceptable.
#7 Tweezers - optional
Getting started:
Cut your wax paper into straight-edged sheets that are slightly larger than your book.
Open the book to the cleaved pages, and taking your glue, run a small bead directly into the cleaving. Get it down in there as deeply as possible, and try not to get any of it on the pages. Take your paintbrush, and hold it so that the longer flat edge is parallel to the long side of your book, and spread the glue in a downward, sweeping motion, pushing it down as deeply into the binding as you can get it. Work with small amounts, and while you want to bond the very edge of the page into the crevice, try not to spread it out onto the page. If you get it out onto the page, take a dry, soft cloth and wipe off the excess glue. The object here is to bind the edge of the page to the book's binding, but when it dries, you want the book to open as it normally would when it's new or in good condition. In other words, I can't post a picture or diagram, so use common sense and don't glue your pages shut..:P
Insert the sheets of wax paper in between the pages where your cleavings are. Slide it in as closely as you can get it to the spine, but don't press it deeply into the glue; even wax paper will adhere to the glue, if you press too tightly and too deeply into it. You can also cut your wax paper sheets twice the width you need and fold them, and put the folded edge directly against the spine edge of the book. Just make sure your folds are crisp and straight. This makes it a little less prone to tearing upon removal if it adheres to the glue.
Close the book when the wax paper is in place, and then check to see that it's sitting close enough to the spine. You can wiggle it in a little deeper if you want it closer. Once you have all of the cleaved areas glued and the wax paper in place, double wrap the entire book in a sheet of wax paper, or use a single sheet, with a sheet of heavy paper over that. This is to protect the edges of your book from damage from the rubber bands. Take the rubber bands, and place at least two length-wise, and about three width-wise - all evenly spaced - around your wrapped book. Brodart's H bands are already made to place equal pressure around the outside surface of the book, and hold it in place without damaging it, so if you have those, use them instead. Otherwise, it's important to make sure the book is wrapped and the bands aren't too small or too tight. You want steady, even pressure on the book while the glue dries, but you don't want to warp the book or damage the edges, so make sure the book is square within the bands and not bowing.
Place your book on a hard, flat surface, and place your book weight flat on top of it. Allow to the glue to set for at least 4-6 hours before you remove the weight and the bands. Go to each repaired area, and gently slide the wax paper out. It may stick in places - just be careful and gently peel it loose. If you end up with little scraps of wax paper stuck to the repaired areas, you can use tweezers to remove them.
Notes: Keep in mind that this process is really only recommended for books in relatively good condition aside from a few isolated places where the spine is cleaving. If your book has a very soft or "mushy" spine, and is cleaving throughout the entire book, your chances of repairing that successfully aren't very good. If it's cleaving throughout the book, but in sections, you may also want to work with isolated sections one at a time, and repair the book over a day or two. Just don't get in a rush, and if you're unsure, work with books that you're already going to have to discard if you can't repair them until you get a little more confident with what you're doing.
Refer back to the pdf manual I posted the link to for instructions (and pictures!) on making other repairs, like reinforcing bindings, replacing loose covers, and repairing torn pages. There are also some instructions on removing writing and stamps, and I have some further tips from my own personal experiences that I can add, if everyone responds well to what I've put in here so far & finds it useful.
ETA: On sticker removal - if you have stickers on the actual pages of your book, this is where you may want to try the hot iron method - NOT on the covers! Practically all paperback covers have a thin laminate coating, and a hot iron will melt it and permanently damage the cover. You can put a thin towel under the page you're working on, and hold the tip of a hot iron over it for about 30 seconds, and those will usually peel off. Just use the tip, and don't hold it on there too long (or set yout iron above a cotton setting), or you can leave scorch marks on the page.
Best of luck & happy reading!

Good tips Kim - thanks! Here's another one. I had a book with a stain along the outside edge of the pages. My husband held the book tightly closed and took a sharp razor blade, gently scraping the area (essentially shaving the page edges) and it was gone. You can't tell the difference!
Steel erasers, and believe it or not sandpaper or those little sanding blocks, are also great for removing writing or stains that aren't set in too deeply from pages or outer edges. I bought those little nose & mouth filter masks for when I'm doing a lot of sanding though. It makes a lot of airborne dust, and I think the last thing you want to be inhaling is some of the crud that gets onto the pages of used books.:P
thanks for the tips. It's amazing how many poor condition books I get from PBS; it's almost become the norm and when I complain people usually claim that there was nothing wrong with them!
In truth, I think most are just well-loved rather than abused, but good info nonetheless.
Thanks Kim. I have some books that look fantastic except for the glue coming undone. I haven't read everything you put yet though. It would be nice to fix them and post them. When closed they look brand new, never read. But then you open them and they're coming apart.
I've seen those too, Mary, and it kills your soul not to be able to pass them on. The offer is always open to any of you ladies who use this forum regularly to send them to me if you don't think you can do this stuff. I won't give anyone 100% guarantees that I can repair a book, but I'll do my best. I don't have any specialized training in this - I've just been into doing arts & crafts for years, and so work like this is pretty self-explanatory to me in a lot of ways, and I've done a lot of reading on it and have a good bit of practical experience with it. My best suggestion is to start with books you're thinking of discarding anyway, just until you get a little practice with what you're doing. That way if you slop glue all over it or it falls apart in your hands, you really aren't out anything. I'll add more stuff to this too, this much just wore me out and I can't think this hard twice in one day.:P

Sure wish they'd use better glue on those spines!
I clean laminated jackets and laminated paperback covers with rubbing alcohol. Very cheap and does the job. It even removes a lot of sticky substances. It's safer than Goo Gone because it doesn't have an oil base that can stain the book - not that too many PBSers will care. :)
I also have a dry cleaning pad, which you can buy very cheaply through any library supply company. I use it to clean hardcovers. You just rub it vigorously over the cover and wipe away the residue. It can't harm the book and it cleans most dirt and grime.
Finally, just a plain paper eraser will remove pencil and dirt marks from the inside pages.
I also use rubbing alcohol and it has been very effective in removing sticker residual and just plain old cleaning. Sometimes I use those disaposable alcohol pads that I get from the office supply cabinet, but it is essentially the same thing as a bottle of rubbing alcohol.

Sometimes, us futurologists (or whatever the nom de guerre of the day is) sound like batshit crazy people. We wave our hands in air, clothed in only a bath-towel as we scamper through the streets exclaiming about how our digital saviour is going to make everything whole, and then get affronted when we get called on our shit.
The thing is, in a continuation of yesterday's post, our expectations are… realistic. We're not saying there will be some magical beard in the sky that will come down, wave a magic wand and the worthy will ascend, we're saying that through a set of logical, carefully thought-out steps, any creature powerful and smart enough really can completely overturn our way of life.
Take, for example, the absurd idea of money. It's nothing but an agreement between people that this or that set of tokens has intrinsic worth beyond its base components. Gathering up as much of those tokens as possible has become, therefore, the raison d'etre of our entire society… but yet we say such things as "money is the root of all evil".
And you know why? Because it is. It's fundamentally unfair; a system built on control of power (money) which is itself built upon control of power of a more brutal, less available sort (brute strength, "justice" from the barrel of a gun) started off unfair and will continue to be unfair.
I'm not saying that the idea of value exchange is unfair, just that when a system exists that creates value from essentially nothing and can change that value at will, and when that ability to give and take that value from others resides in the hands of those who already have far more than enough of it, then the deck is stacked against the vast majority.
Note: the website above looks old, very old. I don't know if it's just because the coder is using old styles, or because he/she just hasn't updated the look to newer standards, but I can tell you that the data, if anything, is even more stark. The thing to point out here is that one family owns more wealth than the bottom 40% of Americans. You can take a short trip to wikipedia to see statistics from 2007, but again the takeaway information here is that since the recovery started in 2009, 95% of all gains have gone to the top 1% of the population.
The situation has deteriorated so far, and the rich have got so out of touch, that it led one person to comment that if poor people dislike being poor so much, they should just stop being poor.
Wouldn't that be great?
Well, if lack of money makes somebody poor, maybe we should give them free money?
Crazy idea, I know, but when we're spending real cash on spikes to get rid of vagrants, why not just stop wasting money on things that don't work, and spend less to achieve more?
The ideal, of course – currently unobtainable, because communism doesn't work (just look at North Korea) – is to do away with the need for money, which is one reason the rich and powerful are afraid of the digital god which we will create, because it threatens to do away with the source of their power, control over our fiscal reality.

A play of revolutionary substance which captures the defining time when female actors first took to the stage
Having attended several TFTV Production performances and having never been disappointed, Playhouse Creatures proved surprising in that it simply exceeded all that had come before. And how apt that it should, being what it is – a play of revolutionary substance which captures the defining time when female actors first took to the stage. The play demands a complex balance between gutter and glamour, determination and desire, and these were more than met by breath-taking performances all round.
Set in 1663, the Restoration playhouse is re-imagined by TFTV through contemporary eyes, helping to convey the links that still exist between the female actresses of then, and the female actresses of today. Both a celebration of theatre and a lamentation of women's lack of autonomy, TFTV created a humorously entertaining performance that was dark yet deeply moving, a performance that will remain with you long after the applause has receded. Following the experiences of Mrs Betterton, Mrs Marshall, Mrs Farley, Nell Gwyn and Doll Common, the audience becomes encompassed – with the help of the enclosed, bear-pit style of the set – by their struggle and fierce competitiveness, as well as their shared love of theatre. We come to realise that each woman is passionately driven for different reasons, but they are ultimately connected not only in the risks that they endure, but also in the bond of sisterhood that prevails.
The actresses are creatures
It is this very bond that makes the play so moving, and enables the play's overriding concern to survive the comic elements; that of female success equalling greater risk of failure. The injustice is captured in Anna Mawn's intensely moving closing speech as Doll Common, where she describes watching her father rip the claws from an aggressive female dancing bear. For anyone as absorbed as me in the performance, this analogy cannot go unmissed, and you join Doll in being "glad that she fought back." The actresses are "creatures", Doll understands, and will be forced to deal with the cruel consequences of transgressing from the female 'norm' of submission. Such powerful symbolism is scattered throughout the play, and wonderfully cast forward through the use of meta-theatre, which incorporates scenes from Anthony and Cleopatra, Macbeth and The Provoked Wife, all combining to create a montage of powerful women at their most vulnerable. Indeed, the chilling scream of Lucy Theobald as she performs Lady MacBeth's soliloquy could easily be the frustrated cry of the actress Mrs Betterton, cast out from the theatre and shown at her weakest.
Playhouse Creatures is a play for everyone and should be seen by everyone
As integral as the feminist component is to the play; there is far more to be appreciated theatrically. One would fail to do justice to the sense of the play if the role of its male figures, Earl of Rochester (James Dixon) and Otway (Harry Whittaker) were unacknowledged. The input that both male characters have – with the Earl having a large part in Mrs Barry's rise to fame – infers that it is not a claim to female superiority being shown here, but a call for the unification of both female and male talents; for equality in the theatre. Linguistically rich, cleverly directed, and full of humour, Playhouse Creatures is a play for everyone and should be seen by everyone.

BOISE, Idaho (PRWEB) August 23, 2012
Idaho outfitters encourage recreationists to keep an open mind about planning outdoor outings or staying committed to an existing trip because it's still possible to go horseback riding, rafting and have a great experience, officials said. Labor Day weekend is right around the corner, and then hunting and steelhead trips kick in.
National media reports focusing on several large forest fires in Idaho are scaring some out-of-state and in-state customers, outfitting officials said. Outfitters recommend doing your homework and staying in touch with outfitting businesses and fire information to learn the latest information about fires and smoke. Wind and weather conditions are changing daily.
"Our trips are continuing on the Middle Fork of the Salmon River, and our guests are happy," said Bob Volpert, owner of Idaho River Journeys based in Salmon. "There are some terrific fishing opportunities on the Middle Fork in September, and some outfitters still have seats available."
"We are fully open for our trail rides, and there are no fires burning in the Sawtooths," adds Deb Bitton, co-owner of Mystic Saddle Ranch. "I was at our corrals in the upper Wood River Valley yesterday, and it was a glorious day with no smoke in the air. There's still a lot of good fishing to be had in the high mountain lakes."
"We have years with fires here in Idaho pretty routinely," says Jerry Hughes, owner of Hughes River Expeditions. "But I've seen much worse years than this. I've actually moved our Middle Fork trips to the Lower Salmon in years when the fires were bad, but this year, I've never even come close to doing that. The smoke can be bad in Stanley and Salmon, but once you get to Indian Creek on the 100-mile Middle Fork, the skies are pretty clear all the way to the Impassible Canyon."
Idaho outfitters encourage people considering float trips, pack trips or hunting trips to check for the latest information on fire information sites such as http://www.nifc.gov and http://www.inciweb.org. Travelers may also dial 511 or 1-888-432-7623, or visit http://511.idaho.gov for information on delays or road closures issued by the Idaho Dept. of Transportation. When calling, press 1 for road reports, and know the highway you intend to travel on.
Cooler weather with a little rain has slowed fire activity in some areas, according to the U.S. Forest Service. "Stay in touch with your best sources of information," advises Louise Stark, co-owner of White Cloud Outfitters. "Conditions are changing on a daily basis."

Gathering Information.....
- The gray color comes from the density of water droplets in the cloud. If there is a lot of water in the cloud, then the cloud becomes thicker and the light is less transparent.
-Nimbostratus clouds are rain clouds.
..........Analyze data and find conclusion
From my experiment, I found from analyzing the clouds and concluding from my information I Googled, I found that my hypothesis is correct. The clouds were gray from the levels of water in them (it was raining hard!!) and a tornado is expected soon (let's hope it's a false alarm!). My conclusion is that rain is predictable by your senses. Just look up.

Guess what?! Fandral finally got that staff out of his…you know…and granted Momokawa grand and glorious FIREKITTYSUPERPOWAH!
Yup, we went on a Pony Circuit, and albeit there were no ponies, we trust there will be again. I know someday– SOMEDAY — we will all watch our casting bars and sit at the right time so we can get Only the Penitent, and SOMEDAY, everyone will know when to hit HERO and blast Alysrazor from the sky so we can all get Barrel Roll. Please. Please. Please…Old Ladies: we can do this! Ponies will be ours! We can also finish up Stay Chill, too, right!? I mean, there's a pony in that list of chives…not chives, chieves!
Not my monkeys, not my circus…
Sitting in my dirty pee pants….
Yesterday, however, was a tough day for Zeptepi. Hours, and I mean hours, waiting in queue for Flex just to get a few upgrades.
I am pretty sure at some point in my fervor to disenchant all the things for Jade Spirit enchants, I disenchanted my healing tier pants. But her item level is plenty high, and she had plenty of token roll coins in her purse, so why not?
Why not indeed.
F*ck some players.
Everyone is standing around waiting for another player, and I see I am kicked:
Was it because they mistook me for another priest with a low item level?
I tried to get to the bottom of it, but apparently as a healer my DPS was too low.
No one could provide an answer, and I give credit to Mr. DK for trying. I don't have the screenshot where he conjectured my DPS was too low. Fortunately, my healing was fine. Look, it's for the best, isn't it? Wasting hours of time? Time I will never get back, because some adolescent jagoffs either wanted to bring in a friend instead or cannot read "Zeptepi" versus "Precharound." It truly doesn't matter, and is not worth getting upset about. If anything it strengthens my resolve to NEVER PLAY WITH STRANGERS AGAIN. STRANGER DANGER!!!!! So Zeptepi had to sit in her dirty pee pants all day, and never did complete a single boss after 7 hours of trying. Seven. I did manage to go for a walk with CD Rogue and a couple asked us for directions and I embarrassed myself when I told them the wrong way, so convinced I was right, and yelled at CD Rogue when he told me I was wrong. I was. He held onto his composure, and corrected the vectors, Victor, and all was well. Sometimes I just don't know where I'm going.
So, onward stalwart Old Ladies! I am not sure I'll be available next Saturday, so maybe we can meet up on Sunday. Meanwhile, I'll be wandering around Stormwind sans pants.

UAE arrive for King's Cup
The United Arab Emirates arrived in Bangkok on Tuesday for this week's King's Cup tournament.
The UAE players arrive at Suvarnabhumi airport on Tuesday.
UAE coach Mahdi Ali said: "I'd like to thank the Football Association of Thailand for inviting us to play in the King's Cup tournament. It is a good opportunity for us to test our new players.
"I hope our team play Thailand in the final. We want to study their style."
On the opening day of the King's Cup at Bangkok's Rajamangala National Stadium on Friday, the UAE meet Jordan at 5pm and Thailand take on Syria at 8pm.
The winners will meet in the final of the four-team tournament on Sunday while the losers will play in the third-place play-off match on the same day.
The UAE and Thailand are in the same group in Asia's final qualifying round for the 2018 World Cup.
Apart from the UAE, Kiatisak Senamuang's men will also face Australia, Japan, Saudi Arabia and Iraq in the World Cup qualifiers for Russia 2018.
Meanwhile, FAT president Somyot Poompunmuang watched the Thai team train on Tuesday.
Somyot talked to several players and later told reporters that they looked fit physically and mentally.
"They told me they are ready for the King's Cup, and I told them to do their best for the country," he said.
"This will be a good experience for them before the World Cup qualifying round [which begins in September]."

The Witch as Heroine in Welsh Gothic – University of Glamorgan ~ 8th March 2012
2012 Ursula Masson Memorial Lecture 8th March 2012 from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m.
Zen Room, Atrium Campus (CB403)
As part of the annual celebrations to mark International Women's Day and to commemorate Ursula Masson, founder of the Centre for Gender Studies in Wales, Professor Jane Aaron will be delivering the 2012 Ursula Masson Memorial Lecture entitled "The Witch as Heroine in Welsh Gothic" held on 8th March at the University's ATRiuM campus.
Dr Ursula Masson (1945-2008) was a much loved and highly esteemed historian at Glamorgan. She was founding co-director of the Centre for Gender Studies in Wales with Professor Jane Aaron, and was instrumental in founding Archif Menywod Cymru/Welsh Women's Archive and its Roadshows.
This year's lecture will be presented by Professor Jane Aaron, professor of literature and former co-director of the Centre for Gender Studies in Wales. Professor Aaron has written extensively on nineteenth and twentieth-century Welsh women's writing, and is the editor of Honno Classics and co-editor of the University of Wales Press' book series Gender Studies in Wales.
This lecture will discuss the representation of the witch as heroic avenger and wise woman in many Welsh Gothic fictions, and consider to what extent these unusually positive representations of witches may be linked to the role of the mother goddesses in early Celtic culture.
Refreshments will be served from 6pm.
Places are limited for this popular lecture so please check for availability to Dr Huw Jones by telephone (01443 668 524) or email on email@example.com
Please note: This year's lecture is being held at the city campus, rather than at Treforest. The ATRiuM is adjacent to Queen's Street Station. Parking is available at the Adam Street NCP.

Immigrant activists, church leaders and local elected officials are calling for demonstrations to show President Donald Trump that border communities oppose his plans to build a towering wall on the California-Mexico line.
He said that California's "prosperity is not built on isolation".
"In the call on February 20, (Peña Nieto) strongly reiterated what all Mexicans have always said: we will never pay, in any form, for a wall on theborder", Videgaray posted on Twitter.
Trump gets invite to see California high-speed rail projects
Trump's visit on Tuesday is scheduled to focus on a review near San Diego of prototypes for his promised border wall, followed by a Beverly Hills fundraiser for the Republican National Committee.
"I mean, frankly, if I wanted to pull our people from California, you would have a crying mess like you've never seen in California", Trump said weeks ago, warning there would be "crime like nobody has ever seen crime in this country".
Last month, Peña Nieto canceled plans to visit Washington after another phone call with Trump during which the US president reportedly lost his temper.
California is also where the Trump administration has erected the prototypes for its proposed border wall - and it is that site that will be the main focus of Trump's excursion to the Left Coast.
"You have lamented that "we don't have one fast train" in our country", Brown wrote in a Monday letter to Trump. We are already putting 1,700 Americans to work.
"Well Mr. President, in California we are trying to fix that".
"Under this premise, we will continue working constructively on the bilateral relationship with the United States". "We invite you to come aboard and truly 'Make America Great Again, '" the letter said. State Sen. Ricardo Lara, D-Bell Gardens, called Trump's first visit to California, only to see prototype border walls, "shameless" and called on state Democrats to "ramp up the pressure".

摘要:We have a few examples for fibrations without sections on surfaces. It seems that a proof of non-existence of sections is difficult. In this talk, we construct explicit examples of genus two fibrations with no sections on rational surfaces by the double covering method. For the proof of non-existence of sections, we use the theory of the virtual Mordell-Weil groups.
