Chief Joseph Quotes About MothersQuotes about: Mothers
If the white man wants to live in peace with the Indian, he can live in peace. Treat all men alike. Give them all the same law. Give them all an even chance to live and grow. All men were made by the same Great Spirit Chief. They are all brothers. The Earth is the mother of all people, and all people should have equal rights upon it. Let me be a free man, free to travel, free to stop, free to work, free to trade where I choose, free to choose my own teachers, free to follow the religion of my fathers, free to think and talk and act for myself, and I will obey every law, or submit to the penalty.
I am ready to talk today. I have been in a great many councils, but I am no wiser. We are all sprung from a woman, although we are unlike in many things. We can not be made over again. You are as you were made, and as you were made you can remain. We are just as we were made by the Great Spirit, and you can not change us ; then why should children of one mother and one father quarrel ? — why should one try to cheat the other ? I do not believe that the Great Spirit Chief gave one kind of men the right to tell another kind of men what they must do.
Whenever the white man treats the Indian as they treat each other then we shall have no more wars. We shall be all alike - brothers of one father and mother, with one sky above us and one country around us and one government for all. Then the Great Spirit Chief who rules above will smile upon this land and send rain to wash out the bloody spots made by brothers' hands upon the face of the earth. For this time the Indian race is waiting and praying. I hope no more groans of wounded men and women will ever go to the ear of the Great Spirit Chief above, and that all people may be one people.

Funding International Research and Study Abroad
Creating a Research Action Plan
Spending a semester or year abroad requires careful advance planning. Applications for major fellowships are due a year before your trip would begin – so be familiar with the opportunities and plan as far in advance as you can. Also, proposals for year-long study tend to be more successful if you have already done shorter preliminary research trips, and have your language qualifications complete. Creating a Research Action Plan that lays out your degree requirements along with your research goals and any opportunities that you will apply for in order to meet this goals can be hugely beneficial.
Knowing Where to Look
Internal opportunities
- Graduate School Professional Development Grants
- ISLA Graduate Student Support Resources
- Kellogg Institute for International Studies Grants and Fellowships
- Nanovic Institute for European Studies Grants and Dissertation Fellowships
- CSLC Language Study Grants
- Ravarino Italian Studies Scholarship
- Devers Travel Grant
External Resources
- Pivot
- H-Net
- Professional or academic organizations, private foundations, cultural institutions, embassies, etc.
Try searching by your target language or country, keywords related to your topic, and the words "scholarship," "fellowship," "grant," "award," and/or "prize".
Writing a Successful Proposal
Any successful proposal fully answers the two questions "What now?" and "Why now?" Applications for study or research abroad must also answer the question "Why there?"
- You must demonstrate the absolute need to undertake your project abroad.
- You must exhibit and understanding of the resources at home and in the target country, and justify your need to study or work in that particular place over any other.
- You must also explain the critical timing of your project and how it fits into your career trajectory.
Below are a number of questions that should be answered in an application for work abroad:
- Where exactly will you be carrying out your research? In what archives, lab, etc.? What materials are will you need to access, and how will you gain access to them?
- How will you carry out your research? What will your research methods be? Quantitative/qualitative/textual analysis, etc.? How will you make the necessary contacts, etc.?
- What are your language qualifications, precisely? What courses, examinations, certificates, etc. do you have in the target language?
- What are your academic qualifications? What coursework or previous research has prepared you to undertake this current project?
- Is this absolutely the most logical step in your project? Can you go no further without this study?
Getting Good Reference Letters
A recommendation letter for study abroad should address:
- The student's intellectual merit and strength of character
- The significance of the project within the student's field and beyond
- The student's preparedness to undertake the project
- The feasibility of the project's completion within the grant terms
- The necessity to complete this project abroad
- The student's ability adapt to a foreign culture and to represent the United States while abroad

Q: Can you tell us a little about yourself? I am an honor roll student in my junior year of high school. I am an editor of the yearbook and I work at Walgreen's.
Q: What made you want to volunteer at Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare? I was sitting in the car last summer going to the mall with my mom. She was talking, but I was in my own world! I was thinking about how I want to make a difference. I feel like people get so caught up in life stressors that they don't have perspective outside of their immediate life.
Q: How did you turn that revelation into action? I started a business with the help of my mom called Pretty in Pink Tutus and More. For every item sold including tutus, hair accessories, blankets, and burb rags, I decided I would donate two items. This is something close to my heart. I am putting my own money into this in order to put a smile on children's and families' faces. I want them to know people care about them.
Q: How did you select Gillette as your donation spot? When it came closer to donation time I didn't really have to research what hospital I wanted! Gillette instantly came to mind. Plus it's a local hospital, and that was really important to me.
Q: What was the donation experience like for you? Life changing- I can't wait to go back with even more things!

From the Director, Joseph K. Hoereth, Ph.D.
Wow. What a busy fall semester we had
here at IPCE! We awarded our 2012-2013 Discourse Awards to five UIC
faculty and staff who are hosting events
that engage the public in dialogue on
policy issues or topics important to
Chicago communities. With the help of
the McCormick Foundation, the author of
No Citizen Left Behind, Harvard's Meira
Levinson, was our guest on campus as
featured speaker in October. Inspired
by the release of our report on dialogue and deliberation
in Chicago, we brought together Chicago-area dialogue and
deliberation practitioners in December to discuss the ways
to help broaden and deepen the engagement of Chicago-area
residents in community building and local policy-making
processes. The convening helped us explore our potential role in
that work and has resulted in an initiative among practitioners
to create a community of practice network around dialogue and
deliberation. Our goal is to launch a new program of dialogue
and deliberation in partnership with this community of practice
next fall.
We do not expect things to slow down very much this spring.
As usual, we are planning a series of brown bag discussions
on civic engagement research, a campus lecture in the Civic
Engagement and Democracy series, and research poster
presentations by our Urban Public Policy Fellows. This spring we
also anticipate running our Civic Engagement Days workshop in
partnership with Chicago Public Schools (CPS) high schools. Please
watch our website for announcements about spring events and
I am excited to share that I have been appointed to the position
of Interim Director of Urban and Public Affairs (UPA) major here
in the College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs. Adding
this role to my responsibilities is an opportunity to explore
connections among IPCE programs, undergraduate students,
and course offerings in new and exciting ways. With this new
role for me, new programming in dialogue and deliberation,
and our regular set of spring events there is certainly plenty
of opportunity for students, concerned citizens, and faculty to
connect and stay engaged with us. We hope to see you at one
of our events this spring.

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
This, apparently, is the story of how the raccoon of the east's coffee bean-studded excrement became valuable to humans.
Back in the 19th century, the Dutch colonized much of Indonesia and like many controlling, misery-making empire-builders, they refused to let the people who were made to work in their interests enjoy the fruits of their own labor. The Indonesians were barred from picking coffee beans for personal use.
My boyfriend, who incidentally is also Dutch -- though a far more benevolent form of Dutch -- is always telling people how fearsome I am before I've had my coffee in the morning. It's true. I need it. I need a gigantic cup of it. And no one can talk to me, or more accurately, no one can expect me to engage in conversation, before I've finished it.
If I don't have my morning coffee, my mood quickly becomes grumpy and silent. This isn't something I'm proud of but it isn't a particularly quirky flaw either. Take away people's coffee and they will resort to drastic measures.
Case in point: Kopi Luwak. If the Dutch hadn't been such jerks, the world would never know how coffee beans tasted after they've passed through a digestive tract.
In the same way the tinsel from my childhood Christmas tree came out of my tabby's ass completely intact, so too does the coffee bean out of a civet -- a weasel/cat hybrid who seemingly doesn't know after all this time what is of nutritional value and what is just roughage.
These beans are what was roasted and brewed to stave off grumpiness in colonial Java and Bali.
This brew may have been born out of necessity but Kopi Luwak is now the most expensive coffee in the world. Apparently once you taste it, you don't want to go back to normal, undigested coffee. I decided to give it a try.
First, I went by minibus to a coffee and spice plantation where I was shown coffee in the raw, dangling above me in vivid holly berry red clumps. We passed by a large enclosure where a small mammal curled up in the corner. It was a pitiful sight to see. Apart from the inherent sadness in seeing something caged, I couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed for this cute little creature kept in captivity to be a pooping machine for its lungi-wearing overlords.
I walked around it to a small tin-roofed structure under which several men sat sorting and roasting the coffee beans. After purchasing a powdered version myself back in Ubud I gave it a try:
OK, not bad. I don't know if I could get used to the smell though. Or the idea really. Has anyone had anything grosser to drink?

The fish blanket pattern will be available May 5th on my site, and on Etsy. $1 from each pattern will be donated to Kittenaide to help pay for vet bills. To read more about this group, or if you would like to help out: http://kittenaide.fortunecity.com/
Now for the blanket:
Now, for something else that (to me) is a little fishy: eBay sellers who list books of patterns, but will not state the title. Why? So you can't find the book at an online retail store for less than half what the bidding ends at?
Recently, someone on a crochet list I belong to was hoping to get help finding the name of one such book on eBay. I dug around, didn't take too long, found the book (304 pages, Annie's Attic and more than 90 patterns of afghans and doilies) was enough to go by, along with pics! for less than $20 US. The one on eBay ended at $46 plus shipping. I kinda figured with a publication date of 2006 that it would be available elsewhere!
Me? I paid $27, shipping and taxes included, CANADIAN for a new copy at Chapters.ca!
So, one word of advice: if you find a book that you like on eBay, and the seller will not state the title, it is probably available elsewhere and they just don't want you to find it. Or, they legitimately forgot to add the title in. (clear throat here) So, check with online groups, there's a good chance someone there has the book, or can help you with the title.
I certainly can't blame sellers who are up front about the title, which is currently available, and the bidding goes up to twice the price that Annie's Attic is selling it for! As with any auction, you do have to know what you're bidding on.
Time to 'get back to work'...play...crochet!

Confessions of a rebuilding team's fan
This rebuilding of teams is a funny business. Most organizations have to do it at some point, often more than once.
As with any change, the process can be painful, but there is also opportunity. Fans don't always see it that way, which complicates matters. While a front office may have an organization's long-term health in mind, the people who pay to watch the games are more interested in seeing a competitive product on the field right now.
The Padres this year have been one of the top "sellers" of talent. They started moving in that direction before the season even started, shipping veteran shortstop Khalil Greene to the Cardinals for a couple of minor league relievers.
Over the past few weeks, they have traded Scott Hairston to Oakland and Jake Peavy to the White Sox for a total of seven pitchers, none of whom falls under the category "known quantities." My colleague Adam Guttridge has examined the Peavy deal in terms of expected value for both clubs, and he's a bit more bullish on the Padres' return than I am, but that is neither here nor there.
The point is that the Padres felt the need to unload an established player's contract sooner rather than later and did so. They're not unique in this. The A's famously followed a similar path with Tim Hudson and Mark Mulder. Ditto the Indians and C.C. Sabathia. And on and on…
In each case, the decision makers had to balance the needs of the team with the needs of the fans. Player valuation tools such as the one employed in the analysis of the Peavy deal are useful but they don't tell the whole story.
Many fans—and I've learned this the hard way—aren't the least bit interested in these models, regardless of how instructive they might be. Most, or at least the most vocal, just want to know who moved their cheese, er, Peavy.
We watch these players, we grow attached to them. On a certain level, we may feel like we know them in some way. I first saw Peavy pitch when he was still in A-ball. I've been following him a long time. I've seen at least 80 percent of his big-league starts, and of those, probably 30 or more in person.
As a fan of baseball and of the Padres, I have derived a tremendous amount of pleasure from watching him pitch. Peavy is a talented young man who applies his craft with a great deal of enthusiasm. He is fun to watch.
A part of me is sore that Peavy is gone. I won't get to see him pitch for "my" team anymore. I imagine that many A's fans felt similar pangs when Hudson and Mulder left.
At the same time, as a student of the game, I recognize what the Padres are trying to accomplish. How well are they doing it? I don't know; that's why we have tools like the Guttridge-Wang trade model. You can work out the probabilities if you're smart and interested enough to invest the time. And then you can wait a few years to see if your predictions are right.
The trouble is that not everyone who comes to the ballpark thinks (or wants to think) in these terms. There are many different reasons to lay down hard-earned cash for a big-league baseball game. For some it may be to appreciate the artistry or the strategy; others are more interested in the vibe, the buzz, the hot dogs and beer; still others may focus on the players themselves. (There were a lot of Peavy jerseys in the stands the night he was traded.)
And it's a gross oversimplification to suggest that any one of these would be the sole motivation for a given individual. More likely, there are a combination of factors that comprise the experience.
Still, for many fans, the presence of Player X could be the determining factor in deciding whether to spend money on a game or, say, a movie. Even if Player X isn't playing that day, at least he's on the roster, providing symbolic value.
I know people who think the Padres aren't worth watching now that Peavy is gone. It does no good to remind them that the team was playing poorly even with him there; that misses the point. There is no amount of logic or information you can present that will change their minds. It's just not how they think about baseball or maybe even entertainment in general.
And while it's tempting to think that these people aren't that smart or knowledgeable, the reality is that these are the same people who are buying the product. And if they aren't satisfied—for whatever reason—with said product, they will spend their money elsewhere.
This may not be a problem for you or me, but it presents a challenge for the people trying to sell tickets and run a sustainable business. You can show me a spreadsheet justifying a trade. I may or may not agree with its conclusions, but I'll at least consider what it attempts to measure and that some amount of thought went into the process.
But again, I'm geared toward this type of thinking. Many fans, when presented with such a spreadsheet, will kindly ask you to get that thing out of their face and give them back their Peavy.
Think they're being close-minded? Could be, but they've got the wallets. Are you selling ideologies or seats in a ballpark?
Nothing exists in a vacuum. Everything is connected. Player valuation is critical in making these decisions, there's no questioning that. But if your kid's favorite player is Jake Peavy, and one day Peavy is no longer part of "your" team, having been replaced by a bunch of relative nobodies, spreadsheets aren't going to help.
How do you tell a kid to look at the bigger picture? Heck, how do you tell an adult?
As an analyst and a student of the game, I try to keep the two aspects of my fandom separated. Yes, it's devastating to see a young man I've been watching since A-ball leave the only organization he's ever known. Yes, I understand why the Padres made the move.
I am fascinated by the details of who "won" the trade. At the same time, I don't care at all because Peavy is gone and what else is there?
But these things tend to go in cycles. I've seen it with the Padres. I'm sure A's fans can tell me plenty of stories, same with the Indians. Don't even get me started on the folks in South Florida.
I love baseball beyond reason, though. Nobody needs to sell me on the product. Barring another work stoppage (the last of which did keep me away for some time), I will be there.
Not everyone is as easy as I am. If you're in a front office, that's a good thing to remember when making these types of decisions. Use all the spreadsheets you need to justify your moves internally, but when someone asks you, "Where's my Peavy," be ready with a good answer. Your business may depend on it.

Industrial lighting specialist Larson Electronics finds its products behind the camera once again in HBO's television series "Westworld", set to be released in 2016. Starring Anthony Hopkins and James Marsden, "Westworld" is a television series based on the 1973 film written and directed by American novelist Michael Crichton.
The HAL-48-2L hazardous location light fixture from Larson Electronics is a four foot, two lamp fixture that is UL listed Class 1 Division 2 Groups A, B,C and D and is a good choice for use in applications where space is at a premium. This fixture is T4A temperature rated and is shipped standard with T5HO bulbs. The lamps are protected by an aluminum framed shatter and heat resistant clear acrylic lens secured with ten draw latches and the fixture is constructed of copper free aluminum alloy. The lamp reflector is corrosion resistant heavy gauge aluminum and coated with a high gloss reflective finish. This fixture is multi-voltage capable and can run on any voltage range from 120V to 277V. These fixtures come standard with two surface mount brackets. Each bracket is attached to the bracket mounting peg on each side of the light. The angle of the bracket is set by tightening two cap screws on either side of the bracket that act as set screws. The bracket itself is mounted via a single bolt hole at the top of the bracket. Once the brackets are mounted to a surface, the light fixture can be removed from the brackets by loosening the cap screws that hold the bracket to the mounting peg. Pendant mounts are available for operators who wish to mount these fixtures away from the ceiling surface.
"The rugged design of this two lamp fixture makes it a perfect fit for set designers recreating a science-fiction western that was originally filmed in 1973," said Rob Bresnahan with Larsonelectronics.com. "It's very exhilarating to witness our products being used by set designers and on the big screen."
With numerous appearances in films such as The Green Lantern, The Dark Night Rises, I am Legend, and Pacific Rim, Larson Electronics' line of industrial grade lighting products have proven to be a popular choice among set designers and film production specialists due to their high performance and modern designs which lends themselves well to the production of today's action and sci-fi thrillers. To learn more about Larson Electronics' lighting equipment, visit their website at Larsonelectronics.com or contact them at 1-800-369-6671 or 1-214-616-6180 for international inquiries.

The Indian Growth Conundrum
Question: how fast can the Indian economy grow?
Answer: just as fast as it can get its population (and in particular its female population) educated.
See New Economist and Brad DeLong.
Why the female population? Well, let's go back to my last post, and to a quote from the linked article about the Lutz-Scherbov projections:
"This graph clearly shows that significant further population growth to more than 1.2 billion by 2020 is a near certainty for India. However, after 2025 the uncertainty range opens up noticeably, and by 2050 the 95% range goes from just slightly above 1.1 billion at the low end to 1.7 billion at the high end. Where India falls within this range will be partly influenced by its future investments in human capital formation."
In other words there is no big mystery. Whether or not India really takes off depends critically on how much money India invests in female secondary education NOW. It couldn't be clearer.

ABERDEEN reserve goalkeeper Jason Brown was banned from driving for six months yesterday after being caught at the wheel without insurance.
Police stopped Brown in a routine check near Pittodrie Stadium on the morning of August 9. Checks revealed he was uninsured.
The 30-year-old goalie pled guilty to the charge, and also to driving without the appropriate licence. He wasn't in court.
Lynn Bentley, defending, told Aberdeen Justice of the Peace Court that Brown had not known he was driving illegally.
His insurance had been cancelled but he did not know about it, possibly because he had changed address.
Ms Bentley said: "He is employed as a professional footballer. He is a married man and has a young son.
"He is in a position to pay a financial penalty."
Brown, of Blackburn, Aberdeenshire, was given six points on his licence, which meant a ban under "totting up" rules.
He was also fined £365 and given three months to pay.
Welsh international Brown joined Aberdeen from Blackburn Rovers. He is expected to leave the club in January after losing his first team place.

Parenthood has changed pop punk Pink for the better - she's no longer jaded about life.
The 36-year-old singer became a mom to daughter Willow four years ago, and she admits her child has helped soften her rough edges.
"I have lived a lot of life in a very short time, and you get hardened a little bit," she told People magazine. "You get jaded, you build up walls, and when you see this little kid, and you get to watch them through infancy to toddler to little person, it's amazing.
"You see how you were. When you watch this bundle full of love and light that's untarnished and untainted by heartache and any of the numerous things that change you, it's very healing. It's a miracle."
The Trouble singer has previously opened up about being a troubled child and experimenting with drugs at a young age, revealing music saved her. She is now a UNICEF ambassador and working with the charity organization is a tremendous joy for her - something she is already sharing with daughter Willow.
"I want her to be a global citizen," Pink said. "She's very aware of the fact that not everybody has a bed to sleep in at night and food on their table and coats on their back. It's hard for her to understand. I want her to be four, you know? I don't want to give her anxiety issues.
"We donate. When one new toy comes in, eight go out. And she loves being in charge of that. She loves looking around and going, 'OK, I'm ready to give this one up, Mama'."

Mother cats teach their kittens to inhibit biting, so kittens removed from mom at a young age may nip more. Encourage acceptable behavior by offering toys to pounce on instead.
Cats are digitigrade mammals, meaning they do, in fact, walk on their toes. Humans and bears, conversely, are plantigrade mammals. We walk on the soles of our feet, with the toes only touching the ground briefly toward the end of each step. This is evident when you look at footprints. Let's say you step in some ink and walk across the floor. Your footprint will consist of your sole -- front and back -- with maybe a lesser mark left behind by your toes.
If your cat stepped in ink, you would clearly see its palm pad and five toes in its footprints. With less foot touching the surface, your cat experiences less friction and conserves more upward energy. Cats and other digitigrade animals therefore tend to be very fast runners, according to Jinny Johnson and John Burton, authors of the book Animal Tracks and Signs. They point out that, as cats walk or run, they usually retract their claws into sheaths, leaving behind just the smooth, small toes and footpad. It's no wonder that cats can tiptoe near us almost in silence. Dogs and foxes, like cats, are also toe-walkers.
Horses, donkeys and zebras are known as hoof-walkers. They just have one hoof-covered "toe" on each foot. This gives them good traction for navigating steep or otherwise difficult-to-traverse surfaces, yet they can run fast too.
Cloven hoof–walkers, such as deer and cattle, possess four toes on each foot. Two of these have tough, split hooves. The hooved toes are used most of the time, with the other two toes often lifted off the ground. I like to think of these as four-wheel-drive animals, since the other two toes only go into action when the animal is walking on a soft surface, like deep snow.
The next time you see an animal, pay attention to its feet and toes. They can tell you a lot about how that animal moves and where its ancestors mostly lived.

Boston Bombing News: What the Heck Happened in Watertown on April 18?
If the Tsarnaevs were guilty, why didn't they have an escape plan? Supposedly they were sane and clever enough to elude bomb-sniffing dogs and massive security and pull off two perfectly timed explosions. And yet, they couldn't find their way out of Boston on Thursday, April 18.
"They went out of their way to kill a cop to get his gun, which they didn't take. They abandoned their Honda and carjacked a van, which they didn't need. They wandered around in the van, stopping at a convenience store where they could easily be seen and recognized. Then they went back for the Honda and drove both vehicles to Laurel and Dexter, where they battled police with handguns and small explosive devices."
Does this story make any sense at all?
The above is a transcript of police scanner communications which followed the alleged carjacking. It reveals a saga that is truly awesome, and truly mysterious. Transcript excerpts are in boldface.
The carjackers are both 5'7", one darker-skinned. A mistake? This is not a description of the Tsarnaevs.
Shots fired from the vehicle in question, in the area of Dexter Ave in Watertown, shots fired at officers trying to stop the vehicle. One driving the vehicle in question, one shooting? Then who was in the Honda, which arrived at the scene just ahead of the van? This car-chase story was repeated by several witnesses. It contradicts the other story: "A police car was slowly following the hijacked van. The cop made eye contact with the driver (Tamerlan?), who suddenly stopped the van, got out, and started shooting."
12:46 am: One subject at Laurel and Dexter is attempting to get back in vehicle and take off. ALSO 12:46 am: Grenades here … They are in between the houses. Who are "they"? Was Tamerlan throwing grenades between the houses while Dzhokhar was escaping in the van? Wait, didn't Dzhokhar run over his brother, who was shot to pieces and lying on the ground?
12:55-57-??: We have multiple locations of [explosive] devices … Spruce and Lincoln officers pinned down … There are sticks of dynamite … There is an officer down at Hazel and Dexter. Did Dzhokhar drive the van to S&L, single-handedly pin down a bunch of cops with gunfire and dynamite, and then flee on foot to Franklin Street and the boat? Meanwhile, was Tamerlan still battling police on Dexter Avenue, after being shot and run over by the van? Do we have a couple of young Rambos here?
We have the suspect vehicle, the Mercedes at Lincoln and Spruce, unknown if anyone is attached …That vehicle is being taken out at gunpoint, so far he is complying. Who was being taken out at gunpoint?
We got one of them suspects coming in to Beth Israel. Was that the famous naked man, unbloodied and walking under his own power?
How and when did Dzhokhar get shot from inside his mouth? The doctor reported that this shot fractured his skull. If he arrived at the boat with this wound, could he have held his head up? Could he have freely moved his head and neck, as shown in Sgt. Murphy's photos? Was he hit by a stray bullet while straddling the side of the boat? The Murphy photos don't show him with his mouth open. It's still a puzzle.
Could the Tsarnaevs really have wreaked all this havoc on their own?
Is it possible that the scanner communications become a "game of telephone" which exaggerated the threat, making two lone gunmen look like an army?
Or … Were there other shooters and bombers on the scene? And if so, who were they?
Option 1: Accomplices. The only known "accomplices" are Aza, Dias and Robel, who are accused of concealing evidence, not committing violent acts. The official narrative is: "There were two bombers and we caught them both." It is not: "We fought a dangerous jihadist gang and caught two of them, and we're after the others." … Also you'd think Dzhokhar would turn in his cohorts, if any, to gain clemency and better treatment for himself.
Option 2: Friendly fire. Were there too many police and undercover agents hanging around looking for the bombers, and getting in each other's way? Did massive confusion result in friendly-fire injuries?
Option 3: The mysterious cabal. I know this idea sounds more like a Charles Bronson movie than real life, but I'll throw it out there anyway … Did someone engineer the massive confusion, with the express purpose of setting their patsies up to be killed? Why did police keep shooting after witnesses heard the brothers trying to surrender? Why did police on Franklin Street fire multiple rounds into the boat? Was the BPD completely over the top – or were hidden snipers taking pot-shots at them?
Your guess is as good as mine.
The "Boston Marathon Bombings: What Happened?" site is doing wonderful work on this topic.
(sections to note in the How Many Holes? story: The Collier Shooting, Danny and the Carjackers, The Watertown Shootout)

Formats' Launches
Lancement de To Be Alive And Forget This de Nick Kline & Jean-François Bérubé, le mercredi 28 mai à 17h à Formats
May 28, 2014 – May 28, 2014
Montréal (Québec)
To Be Alive and Forget This
, Nick Kline & Jean-François Bérubé. May 28 2014, Formats
To Be Alive and Forget This
is an artists' publication that is a visual conversation between NYC based artist Nick Kline and Montreal based photographer Jean-François Bérubé. Double sided, Kline's photographs of textured and patterned rubber silicone castings from cut trees meet Bérubé's portraits of people, personal snapshots and landscapes. Both series were created in the village of
, Quebec, Canada, though known for its world-class salmon fishing, it has another distinction: historically high rates of self-inflicted death. The rotation of the book structure as well as experiments with balance and centering, attempts to exemplify the turbulent struggle of many who survive the loss of loved ones who committed suicide.
The event/installation at Formats is in relationship with Kline's current exhibition at Occurrence Gallery titled
Stony Bottom Rocky Point,
and his Residency at Artexte.
Kline has had numerous solo and group exhibitions of his work both in the US and Internationally. His artists' publications can be found at Formats, Printed Matter Inc., NYC and other venues, and are in permanent collections including the Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Artexte and Banff Center. In September 2014 Kline's collaborative book with Kegan McFadden
Boys' Shirts,
As We Try and Sleep Press, will be launched at Printed Matter Inc, in conjunction with his exhibition at R. Jampol Projects, NYC.
The Meeting: On the Life and Work of Karl Spork,
edited by Kline, was released in January 2013 by Schlebrugge Editors, Vienna, Austria. His artists' publication
Sorry You're Here
, Prosjektrom Normans, was a finalist in NATT & DAG Magazine's, Norway, National Book of the Year Award, 2012. In 2014-16 Momenta Art, Brooklyn, NY will publish
Nick Kline: Booths,1999-2014.
Also upcoming Kline will have a solo-exhibition at Another Space, Copenhagen, Denmark and Artist-in-Residence at Center for Contemporary Art, Prague, Czech Republic. Kline is Assistant Professor, Photography, Department of Arts, Culture and Media at Rutgers University-Newark where he also teaches a Book Arts course and collaborates with his students, other artists and writers since 2009 on the
GlassBook Project

Biologie Computationnelle et Mathématique
Welcome to the BCM web page (Computational and Mathematical Biology Team)
Research in BCM is done along three main axes : genomics, systems biology, and mathematical modeling of complex biological systems.
Methodology in computational biology is one of the main objective
of BCM. Our research team develops new methods and algorithms
allowing us to validate or to choose computer or mathematical
models that can realistically account for the complexity of
biological data. Here, computational methods are inference
methods that make use of algorithmic principles or simulation
techniques. Applications to evolutionary genetics, genomics and
epidemiology are important aspects of our activity, that inspire most of the theoretical approaches developed in the team.
A non-limiting list of projects developed at BCM includes :
Genomics and evolutionary genetics
Population genetic structure
Inference of natural selection in human genomes.
Bayesian methods and machine learning.
Molecular epidemiology.
Interactome bioinformatics.
Smart pooling of protein-protein interactions.
- Bayesien clustering using tessellations and Markov models in spatial population genetics (TESS Software)
Systems biology
Dynamics of genetic networks

Management strategies for threatened species to maintain biodiversity
With climate change the frequency and duration of droughts are predicted to increase in southern Australia (IPCC 2013). In this context the impacts of climate change are likely to prove dire for many arid land species as they reduce or suppress breeding activity in poor/below average rainfall years. Devising management strategies that address this and related conservation issues is a key research interest of our group. We have in particular focused on a suite of birds that occupy arid and semi-arid environments. Recent research outputs include contributions to our understanding of the ecology and conservation biology of the Princess Parrot, Mallee Emu-wren and Black-eared Miner to name a few.
Historical landscape-scale degradation of woodland habitat in southern Australia has resulted in substantial population declines in many woodland bird species. We work closely with recovery teams, threatened species decision analysts and state parks & wildlife staff, to guide management priorities and achieve better population recovery for threatened woodland birds. We are involved in the research and monitoring of iconic threatened species including bird communities of the Box Ironbark woodlands and River Red Gum woodlands of the Murray Darling Basin, along with threatened species programs focussed on the Grey-crowned Babbler, Regent Honeyeater and Regent Parrot.
Island systems are amongst the most threatened globally. We work on several offshore islands with a focus on threat identification and mitigation for avian species and other vertebrate inhabitants. Ongoing work includes a long-term monitoring program for both shorebirds and breeding seabirds at Ashmore Reef and Adele Island. Our work implementing a series of trial control measures for the invasive tropical fire ant at Ashmore Reef led to an ongoing control program and the development of a fully costed eradication plan by the team. We were also involved in a large-scale attempt to eradicate Polynesian Rats from Adele Island. There are clear synergies with our work on marine vertebrate biodiversity, a summary of which can be seen here.

26 Critics
Sotiris is a police investigator in Athens who lives by a strict moral code. An honest man, he carries himself as though held down by the weight of the world. Dora is a cleaning lady, struggling to get by any way she can. Dealt a rough hand in life, she has developed a rich layer of cynicism and mistrust that informs her every action. When a man Sotiris believes is innocent is arrested for a brutal crime, his attempt to uncover the truth results in a grave mistake. Finding himself on the other side of the law for the first time, he places his fate in Dora, the only witness to his malfeasance and the only person who can help him, for better or for worse.

The quest for liberty has driven political movements across the globe, inspiring revolutions in America, France, China and many other countries over the centuries. Even today, Western governments justify their military interventions in the name of promoting freedom.But what is this liberty that is so fervently pursued? Does it mean a private space for individuals, the capacity for free and rational choice, or collective self-rule? What is the difference between positive and negative liberty, or the relationship between freedom and coercion? Reflecting on these questions reveals a surprisingly rich landscape of ideas, as well as further questions.The Liberty Reader, edited and introduced by the distinguished political philosopher Professor David Miller, collects some of the most important and insightful essays written in the past century by philosophers, political theorists and other thinkers who have reflected on the nature of liberty and how to achieve it. The essays have been chosen to represent a wide range of political perspectives - liberal, libertarian, socialist, feminist and republican - and a carefully structured bibliography allows the reader to pursue particular topics in greater depth.It is essential reading for students of social and political theory, political philosophy, and anyone searching for a deeper understanding of the variety of ideas and visions that lie behind perennial human strivings for liberty.Features contributions from:*Hannah Arendt * Gerald C.

My Depression Was the Worst It Has Ever Been During My Pregnancy
What is a time of joy for many women was my darkest hour.
It is not in my genes to be a "skinny girl." The skin that stretches from hip to hip will never be flat on me, I will probably always have a bit of a tummy, and I will definitely always be fighting gravity in the chest area, which has been causing problems for me since middle school.
Until recently, my body woes were limited to these sorts of relatable issues, and even at my heaviest I was still well within a healthy BMI range. Prior to gaining an enormous amount of weight, I had a good run where I was working out, eating right, and was rewarded with seeing the kind of banging bod emerge that made heads turn and inspired my fair share of time wasted taking selfies in the mirror and doing happy dances in dressing rooms over pant sizes previously thought unattainable.
I look back on those pictures now and want to kick myself for letting all of that hard work go.
About two years ago, I was hit with a wave of debilitating depression. A bad breakup ushered it in, my job was eliminated due to the poor economy, I was kicked out of my apartment because I couldn't keep up with my rent, and my only choice was to move myself and my small dog in with my parents -- something I had vowed was never going to happen, since my independence is pretty high up there on the list of things I value.
Oh, and all this happened the year before I turned 30, when the rest of my friends were getting married, having babies, and buying houses. I couldn't understand how I'd ended up like this. I've always worked and usually done my work well, I had a soaring sense of self-worth, and gosh darn it, people liked me. Yet here I was, being washed up on an emotional foreign shore miles away from where I wanted to be.
The breakup itself wasn't that bad, but I was confronted with the fact that once that particular relationship spit me out, I didn't like who I'd become. I was filled with self-loathing that I'd allowed myself to change so much. I began to take solace in the steadiness of my job, but within a matter of weeks that was taken from me, followed shortly by the loss of even the dignity of being able to lick my wounds in private, once I'd moved in with my parents.
Plus, it turns out my dog likes my mom better. In short, I was feeling real "Charlie Brown" about things. Sad-sack music followed me wherever I went. I felt stripped of everything that had made me an adult, and with time to think about things I'd been putting off for years, uncomfortable questions started coming to me.
Cut forward to a little over a year, and more than a few nights spent in pursuit of nothing more than Netflix marathons, a rotating diet of takeout food, and bottles upon bottles of wine, and I have gained over 90 pounds. I'm now solidly in the "obese" BMI category. I don't go out anymore because I'm embarrassed to let my friends see me like this.
They have, of course. I've still had weddings and baby showers to attend, and I'm not such a self-indulgent tool that I've let a little bit of discomfort get in the way of celebrating other people's happy milestones. But my life is drastically different. Somewhere along the line, standing up and raising my arms above my head for extended periods of time became tiring, so I tend to shower less, which in turn means I avoid activities that are going to make me stinky and sweaty.
Clothes, even the ones that fit, are still generally uncomfortable. They bunch and chafe and it doesn't help that I can't walk more than a city block without breaking out into the kind of sweat formerly unseen until a full 10 minutes into a treadmill session. Box stores and the mall are intimidating, so I order a lot more things online. My ankles swell if I stand too long. I've been nervous on planes that they're going to ask me to buy an extra seat.
I have to sleep with an army of pillows all tucked and propped in the right spots just so I can ease the pressure on my beleaguered spine, and I wake up several times in the night, panicked that my ass has smothered my 12-pound dog.
Socially, things have changed, too. I've had to ask to be reseated at restaurants because I won't fit into the space they're trying to put me in, which can get red-faced embarrassing. The talkative ladies at the nail salon have stopped asking me if I have a boyfriend. In fact, all the guys who used to stop by my desk just to chat and tell me silly stories have stopped making eye contact with me (sidebar: I ended up getting my job back once the economy recovered a little bit, but coming back so much heavier was a bit of a shock to people, and many of them don't seem to know how to treat me now. Humans, amirite?).
While I've always been more on the quiet side, I used to be a reliably funny quipster, a pastime that's dampened now by my desire not to call attention to myself or open myself up to return barbs. I find that I'm beginning to be perceived as rude because of this sort of self-conscious, "Please try not to notice me" behavior.
Last, and maybe a little heartbreakingly, some unknown person told my grade-school-aged niece that it was bad to use the word "fat" around me, and ever since then she's been less enthusiastic about the times I've volunteered to come pick her up at school.
The thing is, I know I was conscious and alert the entire time I was gaining the weight. I remember the numbers on the scale going up, and I remember just recklessly not caring. I am not a victim of bad genes, I can't claim that I'm just "big-boned."
Initially, I knew what I was doing when I was engaging in depression-inspired binge eating, but I've always been able to get back on track and lose the weight, get things under control. I'm fully aware of how to exercise and eat healthy. I figured I'd give myself a few months to get it out of my system and then jump right back on the fitness bandwagon, because I honestly used to love working out and I enjoyed the constant hunt for new ways to cook a vegetable.
It shouldn't have been a problem. But it was. Because I didn't realize how steep the climb back was becoming, and because one sucky life event after another kept washing over the little island I was clinging to, sending me further into the judgment-free burrow of television and comfort food I'd cleared out for myself.
I pretty much lived in the nothing-bad-ever-happens-here town of Stars Hollow for about a year, and if you've ever watched "Gilmore Girls" you know they are ALWAYS EATING. For a while I was eating right along with them, and now I know what happens when you eat like Lorelai in real life -- your doctor freaks out when you go in for your annual checkup.
Right now there's nothing for me to do but begin the long and painful climb up and out of the well-worn, welcoming burrow that's become detrimental to me. My life now is burning calories and trying to gain back some self-respect. It helps to be employed again, and soon I should be able to afford my own apartment and reclaim the affections of my dog.
The hardest part of all of this is living in a body that wants to fight me every step of the way, and pushing back against the depression that drove me here in the first place. There are days where I don't want to work out because the thought of passing out in the gym shower afterward, tiled walls spinning and stretch marks on display all over the germ-ridden floor of the communal locker room, seems like a very real and scary possibility.
So I'm still kicking around on this mental foreign shore, still estranged from the old country I can see off in the distance, and every day it's going to take more energy than I have to get to where I want. Gaining weight, for me, has been isolating. I not only feel separated from life as I used to know it, but I also feel separated from, and a little betrayed by, the person I used to be.

You might have heard a football game was played last night. Congratulations to the Saints and their fans. I hope one day my Panthers allow me to feel how all Saints fans must feel this morning.
The leader of the Saints is Drew Bress, a quarterback has been told his whole life he's too short to play the position. He was dumped by his old team and signed with the Saints four years ago. This interview with Drew Brees may give some insight into the character of the man who led his team to winning the Super Bowl.

Quick Reference
A type of learning situation: a method by which schools function as organization by grouping their pupils according to various pedagogic principles. Learning in school classes entails a clear status distinction between the pupil group, and one or more professionals (teachers, instructors, or lecturers), charged with providing education (that is, a legitimate curriculum). Some of the most important insights into class interaction have come from the Durkheimian tradition, notably through the work of Basil Bernstein, emphasizing the cognitive impact of the hidden (as opposed to the visible) curriculum and pedagogy of the classroom. Ethnographic studies, influenced by symbolic interactionism, have emphasized the roles and moral careers of both teachers and pupils. Both groups create meanings about what is going on: for example, when pupil conformity is negotiated in exchange for relaxation of the demands of the official curriculum; or when self-fulfilling labels are attached to pupils and become the source of fixed behaviours and attainment. Sociologists from the mainstream traditions of sociology have tried to analyse the relation between such micro-processes and the reproduction of function and power on a macro level. A classic paper by Talcott Parsons stressed the progressive shift in classroom dynamics from the particularism of the elementary years (which supposedly mirrors the child's family) to the universalism of later stages (which anticipates the labour-market and employment). More recently, Marxist writing in the United States and Britain, drawing on a range of historical, statistical, and ethnographic data, has claimed that classroom learning is mainly significant in socializing a docile labour-force for capitalist industry.

AS the SES resume their search for a missing four-year-old Queensland girl, police have expressed "grave concerns" that her father has taken her into bushland and may not have appropriate supplies.
Greg Hutchings, 35, vanished with daughter Eeva Dorendahl on Saturday and was last seen with her about lunchtime.
Police are hoping his sense of "parental responsibility" kicks in and that he allows police and her mother to see her.
Mr Hutchings was supposed to meet Eeva's mother, Michelle, to hand her over in the NSW town of Pottsville.
The pair are believed to have ended their relationship more than 12 months ago and had successfully exchanged Eeva between them in the past.
The search entered its third day on Monday, with 20 SES workers searching a 15sqkm area, including beach land.
The search area has been extended this afternoon, following two and a half hours of coordinated searching this morning.
Police are worried she may not have access to enough water, with Inspector Greg Jago saying hot conditions were only adding to concerns.
"Police have grave concerns for the child's welfare, particularly with the temperatures in this area," he said.
"Hopefully, the parental responsibility would kick in."
Mr Hutchings and his daughter were last spotted near James Ambrose Brown Park.
Police say Mr Hutchings is a long-time resident of Pottsville where he has lived with family for a number of years.
His daughter had been spending the past two weeks with him and the two had regularly enjoyed going for bush walks together, Inspector Jago said.
Usually, he returns Eeva to the Sunshine Coast, but the pair organised to meet on Saturday in Pottsville.
Mr Hutchings is not believed to have had access to a car and police have been investigating whether he left town via any other means.
The search this morning focused on bush land between Elfran Avenue - where Eeva and Mr Hutchings were last spotted - and Ambrose Brown Park.
SES crews this afternoon shifted their attention to the area near Overall Drive.
Buses and planes have been explored as possible exit means, with police checking to see whether father and daughter used either to travel during the past few days.
"She's a four-year-old child, it's a very hot day and ... She's been away from a home for a number of days," Inspector Jago said.
He said he hoped Mr Hurchings had "appropriate" water supplies, given the heat.
Earlier, The Courier-Mail reported the mother of the missing girl is "distraught", police say.
A large-scale search for Greg Hutchings, 35, and his four-year-old daughter Eeva Dorendahl has resumed this morning and is now entering its third day.
The father and daughter were last seen at Pottsville, just over the border in NSW, at lunchtime on Saturday.
Police say the pair were due to meet family in the area about midday but never arrived.
It's believed they do not have access to a car, and family members hold serious concerns for the pair's welfare.
Eeva had been staying at her father's house at Pottsville but was due to return home to her mother at Kin Kin on the Sunshine Coast, and they sent a text to say they were on their way, the ABC reported this morning.
"Obviously the mother is distraught at this time and his family are also concerned, but we're making every effort to contact anybody he knows in the area and we need the assistance of the public to help locate the father and his four-year-old daughter," Acting Inspector Warwick Rhodes said.
Mr Hutchings is of Caucasian appearance, about 175cm tall, with short, brown, curly hair and of a thin build. Police say he was last seen wearing a black, long-sleeve shirt, grey trousers and carrying a black backpack.
Eeva is also of Caucasian appearance, with long blonde hair and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing an oversized blue and white-coloured shirt and multicoloured board shorts. Police are urging anyone with information about this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
