I had an interesting December. I was more organized for the holidays than I've ever been. Things were looking good and then it was like I ran into a storm of resistance. I was worried. I was overwhelmed. I was in a funk.
I tried to get out of my funk, but wasn't very successful. It was a perfect storm of too tired, too much bad food, too little self-care, and too much worry. All this resulted in some ill health and that's where it gets interesting.
Aside from some virus-y symptoms, I had some problems with my teeth. I've never had good teeth and gums and my fear around dental problems makes it the perfect reflection of stress in my life.
So I had a toothache. In recent years, I've used some home remedies to try to avoid the expense and discomfort of dentistry. I have a new dentist now, but my reluctance continues. I put the natural methods into place and it helped quite a bit, but did not totally get rid of the discomfort.
One night I thought "I wish I could just get some anti-biotics for my teeth." Lo and behold, a day and a half later, I woke up with a swollen jaw, went to the doctor, and got some anti-biotics. Hmmmm.
The antibiotics quickly brought down the swelling. My doctor was pretty scared about the swelling, but I knew I created it totally out of resistance. It didn't come with any pain. Unfortunately, the resistance continued and peaked.
Christmas Eve I worked at my job, from 2pm until 3am, eating all kinds of junk food, feeling exhausted, depressed and generally not taking care of myself. I was halfway through the antibiotics on Christmas morning when I was getting ready for work.
As I forced my tired, stressed body through the motions of getting dressed, I felt my jaw swelling. I ran to the bathroom mirror and saw that the swelling in my jaw was, indeed, coming back.
I was clear that my jaw was reflecting my stressed state, so I took some time to relax and meditate. The swelling went down again. Whew!
I ran around, getting ready for work, and my jaw swelled again. At this point, I gave in, called in sick to work, and spent the day resting. Apparently, antibiotics don't work as well if you exhaust yourself and eat crap. I spent the rest of the weekend relaxing and the swelling didn't come back.
I'm feeling much better now and have learned a valuable lesson. I listened to some Abraham-Hicks recordings and really heard when she said that physical illness is a manifestation of resistance. She said that without resistance, the cells of our bodies would heal themselves. When I relaxed, the resistance subsided and my jaw fixed itself.
My teeth still have some soreness here and there. While I wait for my new dental insurance to kick in, I'm experimenting with my teeth. When I feel a twinge in a tooth, I relax. Sometimes I shift my focus to the teeth that feel fine. Both actions help and the pain goes away. I don't entirely trust this new method of dental management, but I figure if I'm in a good space mentally, I'll know if I need more action. Meanwhile, I have a built-in stress meter. It's good to relax.

Albany, New York (PRWEB) January 04, 2013
Smart pill technology is used to diagnose gastro intestinal disorders such as constipation and gastroparesis. Smart pill technology functions by providing the practitioner with information pertaining to the GI (gastrointestinal) tract such as pH, temperature and pressure. The technology comprises of a wireless capsule, a receiver worn by the patient and the computer software which analyzes and sorts the information collated. Smart pill is a nascent technology which holds immense potential in the field of medical diagnostics.
Related Report: Cervical Cancer Diagnostic Tests Market
The etiology for some of the gastro intestinal disorders is still unknown to us due to the limited diagnostic scope of the existent medical devices. Smart pill technology with the help of the concept - biological microelectromechanical systems will enable practitioners with a higher degree of flexibility to monitor and diagnose such clandestine and mysterious diseases.
The smart pill technology market is segmented into two major categories based on types, applications and geography. The smart pill technology market is sub segmented into three major types: capsule endoscopy, drug delivery and patient monitoring. Out of all the aforementioned types the only type currently existent in the market is capsule endoscopy. The geographical segmentation of the market includes four regions namely: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and rest of the world regions. Capsule endoscopy devices are microcapsules comprising of four components namely: battery, transmitter, color camera and light source. They are endoscopes equipped with a higher degree of flexibility and so can reach intricate parts of the GI tract and perform effective diagnosis. The higher degree of flexibility is the result of microcapsules which are ingested by the patient.
The growing prevalence of geriatric gastro intestinal diseases, lifestyle GI related diseases and the rising disposable incomes of the consumers are some of the drivers for the smart pill technology market. The fact that two out of three smart pill technologies are still not available in the market will provide huge opportunities for the market in the future.

There should also be care not to overdiagnose or overtreat young people who
may watch their weight and eat sparingly. Just try to encourage eating of good-quality, lower-calorie foods and suggest a supplement program such as the one at the end of this section.
For people with problems of being underweight, a medical evaluation is usually needed, especially if the problem is recent. A general physical exam and blood chemistry test may rule out medical problems such as anemia, abnormal thyroid function, or even cancer. Mineral tests and a diet profile may assist in isolating nutritional deficiencies. Usually, though, if both parents were trim and the individual has been thin most of his or her life, no medical problems will be revealed. A faster metabolism and lower potential for fat storage are usually the explanation.
People with low weight who have difficulty gaining weight often need a combined program. Working with a psychologist, stress counselor, or hypnotherapist to deal with some of the psychological, attitudinal, and emotional factors may be helpful. Stress reduction such as through relaxation exercises, music, or meditation, can be important, especially for nervous or high-strung individuals. Learning to slow down internally and externally can improve metabolism and the assimilation of nutrients. Stopping smoking or the overuse of caffeine is very helpful at adding a few pounds, as it will often slow the metabolism, at least initially.
The other, primary focus for gaining weight is good nutrition—diet and supplements. In this area, the suggestions are the opposite of those for weight loss. Bigger portions, many meals along with extra snacks, and more healthy, easily digested, high-calorie foods are the foundation of the plan. Increasing calories is the key; an extra 500 calories per day over and above body requirements can lead to a pound a week weight gain. More yogurt and cheeses, nuts, avocados, rice, potatoes, and bread with some butter may be helpful and healthful for getting extra calories. This will also increase dietary fats somewhat; fats are more caloric than the complex carbohydrates or sweeter foods. If there is a low cardiovascular risk, with a moderate cholesterol level (175–210) and good blood pressure, even more fats, especially monounsaturated fats such as olive oil, can be consumed. Smokers are at a slightly greater risk of developing cardiovascular diseases with this higher-fat diet, though generally additional oils, seeds, butter and other milk products, and even meats, if those are tolerated, may be used to add weight. It is still wise to avoid fried foods and hydrogenated oils; an increase in vegetable fats, especially cold-pressed oils is wiser than adding more animal fats.
Often, underweight people experience symptoms of fatigue and coldness in the body. Fat helps to keep us warm, and low body fat with poor circulation will reduce vitality and warmth. Fatigue may also be related to nutritional deficiencies secondary to limited caloric diets and low intake. Vegetarians and people who eat macrobiotic diets tend to have lower weights, but these may be healthier weights if these people consume reasonable amounts of calories, protein, and vegetable oils—and mostly nutrient-rich foods. Still, these diets can more easily lead to deficient calorie intake, because they are lower in fats, and most of the foods consumed are low-calorie foods (better for weight loss). In these cases, more animal proteins can be therapeutic. Deep-water fish and organic poultry are best; but even "organic" red meat and liver may be helpful for deficient, tired, cold-type people. Low thyroid function and anemia can produce fatigue and coldness; however, hypothyroidism usually causes some weight gain also. Most often, low weight with fatigue results from inadequate nutrition. In the Chinese traditional energy system the imbalance that is associated with "weak Fire element" may lead to fatigue, low endurance, and coldness, although this symptom complex may be associated with either low or increased weight. These symptoms may also accompany anemia, a part of "weak Fire" or weak blood, and in this case more iron, as is found in the animal meats, poultry and fish, or as supplements, is the appropriate medicine. Folic acid, vitamin B12, copper, and adequate protein intake, as well as regular exercise also help to build up the blood and improve the energy, endurance, and weight.

Billy Tauzin, key player in health-care push, leaving PhRMA
Saturday, February 13, 2010
The resignation of an influential lobbyist who positioned the pharmaceutical industry firmly behind health-care reform presents another complication for Democratic leaders as they struggle to keep the effort from falling apart amid a tide of political setbacks.
W.J. "Billy" Tauzin, a former congressman from Louisiana, announced Friday that he is retiring at the end of June as head of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, which became a pivotal backer of health-care legislation after reaching a deal with the White House aimed at limiting damage to the industry.
PhRMA, as the group is known, became a lightning rod for criticism from both right and left. Each side questioned the group's motives and accused the Obama administration of giving too many concessions to drugmakers in exchange for their promise to absorb $80 billion in cuts.
Tauzin's backing of reform efforts also prompted grumbling among some of PhRMA's corporate members, who feared he was offering up too much in the bargain. But Tauzin said in an interview Friday that the group has "no regrets whatsoever" about taking an active role in the health-care debate.
"I don't think health-care reform would have gotten into the conference position if we hadn't been there," Tauzin said, referring to passage of separate bills in the House and Senate. "We believe what we did is exactly correct. Our purpose was to be at the table and be as constructive as we could be."
Tauzin said PhRMA will continue to be involved in the debate on Capitol Hill, and he dismissed widespread speculation that his resignation was a result of political fallout from the stalled health-care negotiations. Tauzin, a 66-year-old cancer survivor, said he promised to stay about five years when he went to work for PhRMA in 2005.
"It has nothing to do with the health-care debate," he said.
Tauzin's resignation announcement came amid a tide of bad news for President Obama and congressional Democrats, who are struggling to find a way to resurrect health-care legislation after last month's upset victory by Republican Scott P. Brown in a special Senate election in Massachusetts.
The loss of the Senate seat deprived Democrats of the 60-vote supermajority needed to break a filibuster and push through legislation in the face of concerted GOP opposition. Obama has announced plans for a health-care summit with leaders of both parties later this month in an effort to jump-start the process.
Tauzin, a quintessential Washington power broker, parlayed a 26-year career in the House into the $2 million-a-year job at PhRMA. Tauzin was one of the founders of the Blue Dogs -- a group of conservative Democrats that played a pivotal role in last year's health-care negotiations -- and then switched to the Republican Party after the GOP's 1994 takeover of Congress.
Tauzin came under sharp criticism for taking the job at PhRMA shortly after helping push through a costly Medicare prescription drug package, which was a boon to drugmakers. Tauzin said he took the position in part because of the role that experimental drugs played in helping him survive a battle with intestinal cancer.
PhRMA, one of the largest health-care organizations in Washington, spent more than $26 million on lobbying last year and has contributed more than $200,000 to federal candidates, mostly Democrats, since 2007.
AstraZeneca chief executive David Brennan, who currently serves as PhRMA's chairman, praised Tauzin in a statement for "strong leadership and many accomplishments," including "efforts to bring about health care reform."
Pfizer chief executive Jeffrey Kindler, who is said to have clashed with Tauzin on some issues, is set to take over the chairmanship next month.
Many involved in the health-care debate said Tauzin's resignation, even though it doesn't come until summer, is bound to further complicate congressional negotiations.
"He had considerable influence on the Hill," said a senior official with one major interest group, who declined to be identified because of the delicacy of the negotiations. "It could be bad because you lose a reluctant but helpful ally who could help get this finished."
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which has sparred bitterly with PhRMA over health-care legislation, issued an effusive statement on Tauzin. "He remains one of the most respected, trusted and influential people in this town," chamber President Thomas J. Donohue said.
Tauzin said he will be closely involved with PhRMA's activities, including the health-care debate, until his last day, June 30. "Health care is basically done; they're either going to pass it or not at this point," Tauzin said. "But if this thing kicks up again, I'll be there, and our companies will be there."

It's been such a pleasure to write for the Student Speak blog this year. I am incredibly impressed by the innovative and inspiring words my colleagues present. I thought I'd make my final post one that hopefully seeks to inspire as well, through the unparalleled opportunity I had in addressing students during my own graduation ceremony. Thank you so much…
Commencement Speech by Nathaniel Warren, MPH Candidate
There must be some irony in that I'm speechless for this incomparable honor…thank you all so very much for the opportunity to share my thoughts. I am so grateful to have had such a supportive group of friends, family and faculty leading to this culminating event of graduation.
Sports announcers sometimes talk about "Cinderella stories" – athletes that advance much further than anyone would give them credit. I want to draw comparison through one such story, about a man who did the impossible. Despite childhood abandonment, a brother lost to violence, homelessness and constant poverty, at 62 years old, Charles Bradley landed a deal with the famous Daptone Records, top bookings at music fests like SXSW and Bonnaroo and an international tour spanning 17 countries and three continents. How was this possible? Pushing forward against all obstacles, Bradley's talent, heart and perseverance won the war for survival and ultimately, success.
Never before has the need for talent, heart and perseverance to rise amongst health professionals been more critical. And, like Bradley questions through his track "Where Do We Go From Here," as new graduates, we enter our careers into a brave new world. Healthcare is transforming. We're seeing an unprecedented, fundamental paradigm shift from graduates of the past…and we get to lead the way. Here in Oregon, our state represents the point source of efforts to improve health access, cost, care and equity.
The New York Times recently promoted these efforts, stating that "grass-roots leadership holds the key to fixing health care in America." Governor Kitzhaber described in the article Oregon's bold experiment: "Local, interventionist, hands-on attention — reducing health problems before care is warranted or billed — means breaking deep tradition in a system that thinks mostly about treatment and response." Kitzhaber went on to say, "We're building something that's never been built before." By creating a culture of self-sufficiency in patients, promoting health literacy and disease prevention, and enacting community resilience, this objective is already underway. An integrated approach to care that incorporates aspects of education, physical activity, nutrition and other "upstream" interventions represent our new common cause. The role of the health professional must influence both on the micro and macro level and, like Bradley's unlikely success, we must recognize an appreciation of circumstance for each patient if our state's own Cinderella story is to be achieved.
It would seem that few universities value the power of grass-roots, interdisciplinary leadership more than OHSU. From nursing to medicine to public health to dentistry, through partnerships on campus, with community agencies and through advocacy in our legislature, our voices and actions are strong. Even through my practicum at a local community health clinic, I've met other OHSU students who've brought their compassion and expertise to those most vulnerable, advancing an inspirationally collaborative model for healthcare delivery.
The challenges of this transformation are great; requiring the same level of determination, innovation and insight as our degree programs have demanded of us, perhaps even more. I believe we are able to meet the challenge. Numerous examples provide evidence for this, through OHSU projects like I-CAN (an acronym for Interprofessional Care Access Network), a School of Nursing grant to improve access to health care services for the uninsured, isolated or medically vulnerable. Through free health screenings put on by OHSU nurses, physicians, dentists and other health professionals, community members have been able to receive medical check-ups, personal hygiene items, dental, vision and hearing exams, as well as educational materials and resources for social services, mental healthcare, housing, job assistance and much more. Even in fostering a sustainable grass-roots model for future leaders, OHSU has proposed the Scholars for a Healthy Oregon initiative, which pays the entire cost of tuition and fees for selected medical, dental, nurse practitioner, certified registered nurse anesthetist and physician assistant students in exchange for their commitment to working after graduation in Oregon's underserved or rural communities. Through these and other examples, our collective compassion shines through.
"If you feel that you've got something good to give to the world to make this planet a greater place, don't just hold it back," said the now 64-year-old Bradley in a documentary chronicling his story, titled The Soul of America. "At my age now, I just want to give, give, give, give, because I don't want to hold nothing back."
Giving back isn't just about altruism – it defines the future of healthcare, through collaboration across disciplines and through the support of transformative, lifesaving institutes like those for heart and cancer care at OHSU. Bradley's story is a metaphor which holds tight to the notion that our future lies in strengthening our community. When we build up our country's most vulnerable, we prove that by pushing forward despite barriers, empowering our collective strength and remaining grateful for our opportunities, anyone can rise.
Thank you.

Cloud-Based Solution Replaces Silos of Traditional CRM Systems and Homegrown, Manual Systems Across University's 12 Schools
Cloud-Based Solution Replaces Silos of Traditional CRM Systems and Homegrown, Manual Systems Across University's 12 Schools
SCHILLER PARK, IL--(Marketwired - May 1, 2013) - Enrollment Rx, the leading provider of cloud-based Constituent Relationship Management (CRM) solutions for higher education, today announced that the University of Miami will incorporate Enrollment Rx as part of an enterprise-wide initiative to integrate recruitment systems across campuses.

The University of Miami selected Enrollment Rx, which is built on the proven salesforce.com cloud platform, for its flexibility and ease of integration with other systems. Enrollment Rx captures recruitment data in a centralized location and automates communication plans, workflows, security, and constituent scalability.
"Enrollment Rx offers us a level of sophistication that meets not only our current needs, but also what we want to do in the future," said Scott Ingold, ERP Functional Lead, University of Miami. "By bringing everything together in a single enterprise solution, Enrollment Rx will allow us to effectively report the success of our efforts, improve our colleagues' work/life experience, and transform how we communicate."
The University of Miami is currently using the cloud-based CRM for recruitment, and plans to extend it to other functions on campus that could take advantage of its functionality.

Affect Studies and Literary Criticism
Patrick Colm Hogan
Most readers probably take it as self-evident that literature is inseparable from emotion. Poems memorialize love and grief; stories elaborate on the rage of battle, the shame of defeat, or the guilt of sin. Readers pass through versions of these feelings while perusing a book or watching a play. They also experience respect and awe, flip pages or inch forward in their seats due to suspense, or relax into a delighted experience of beauty at a phrase or scene.
After long neglect, in recent decades, emotion—or, more generally, affect—has become a major concern in literary study, as well as philosophy, psychology, and elsewhere. It is possible to organize such work into two broad orientations, commonly called "affect theory" (alternatively, "affective poststructuralism") and "affective science." Writers in affect theory draw on a range of psychological, social, linguistic, and other theories, most often in the service of political analysis. The psychological principles of affect theory have tended to derive from the tradition of psychoanalysis, often through its radical revision or critique by such theorists as Jacques Lacan and Gilles Deleuze. Affect theorists have also drawn extensively, sometimes more centrally, on a range of theorists outside of psychology, principally poststructuralists, such as Michel Foucault and Jacques Derrida.
In contrast, affective science has its roots in cognitive science and to a lesser extent social psychology. It comprises a set of competing theories of emotion, including dimensional versus systemic and appraisal versus perceptual-associative accounts. Dimensional accounts see emotions as specified only by general variables (such as attraction versus aversion). Systemic accounts treat emotions as the result of distinct pre-dedicated, biological systems (e.g., for disgust or fear). Appraisal accounts treat emotion as the result of a person's assessments of how events or circumstances impact his or her achievement of important goals. Perceptual-associative accounts construe emotion as a more mechanical process that is affected by assessments only indirectly. Whatever its explanatory architecture, an affective science account is likely to include a careful analysis of emotion episodes, breaking them down into eliciting conditions, action readiness, expressive or communicative outcomes, phenomenological tone, and other components.
Beyond treating different theories of emotion, an account of literary affect needs to consider the various possible locations of emotion in literature. These begin with the real people involved—authors and readers. But they extend to implied authors and implied readers as well as wholly fictional persons, such as narrators and characters. Emotion bears also on scenes and sequences—both the sequence of events as they actually occur in the story and the sequence of events as they are presented in the plot (which may, for example, reveal the outcome of events before revealing their causes). Sometimes, a given narrative level has its own characteristic emotions or affective concerns—such as suspense in the case of plot (suspense is in part a function of when story information is provided). At other times, a given level will merely affect the ways the emotions of other levels are modulated (as when some stylistic features, not funny in themselves, contribute to comic effect).
By the usual scientific criteria, affective science is more logically rigorous and empirically better supported. But affect theory has its own value—particularly in challenging the ideological assumptions that often underlie social scientific research, including some of that undertaken in affective science. In short, each group has something to learn from the other.
Aisthēsis and Literature
David Vichnar and Louis Armand
Etymologically and conceptually linked with sense perception (as opposed to, in the Platonic tradition, noēsis or intellection) in ancient, medieval, and early-modern thought, aisthēsis formed part of theorizing not only questions surrounding beauty and art, but also perception, epistemology, and even ontology (in, for instance, the work of Plato, Aristotle, and Thomas Aquinas). During the Enlightenment and its project of subdivision and categorization of the "humanities," aisthēsis became subsumed, in the work of Alexander Baumgarten, by "aesthetics," the study of beauty in the narrower sense. However, by the beginning of the 20th century and the Marxist/Freudian/Saussurean revolution in humanist inquiry and the "avant-garde" revolution in the arts, aisthēsis resumed its place and function as a central node in a vast network of concerns: for the Marxists, the history of aisthēsis follows the pattern of social development of progressive mastery over nature by humankind, described as a process of rationalization (the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory); in psychoanalysis and phenomenology, artistic activity is regarded as the "sublimated" expression of socially objectionable energies, taking place in a world conceived of as indefinite and open multiplicity (John Dewey, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, et al.); in poststructuralist theory, the image not simply "acquires" a politico-aesthetic function by way of an act of judgement, but rather accedes in its very technological condition to a political imaginary, to an aesthetics as such (Roland Barthes, Jacques Derrida, et al.). In the second half of the 20th century, with the progressive technologization of society, aisthēsis formed the backbone of media studies, which examines how technological innovation overthrows a settled political and aesthetic order, with special attention paid to the effects of electronic media and the hypertext: non-linearity, repetitiveness, discontinuity, intuition (e.g., Marshall McLuhan and Jay David Bolter). At the dawn of the 21st century, in the aesthetico-mimetic doubling of the mediasphere, from teletext and satellite TV to the World Wide Web and GPS, a critical, ecological mode of thinking aisthēsis assumes the ideal function of an "avant-gardism" in affecting the structure of how things come to mean, how meaning is virtualized, and how the virtual is lived.
Animal Studies and the Contemporary Novel
Elisha Cohn
Animals have prowled literature from its beginnings in the ancient world through medieval bestiaries and out from the margins of the novel in the modern era. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, animals' literary presence has generated increasing critical interest. Animal studies, a relatively new interdisciplinary field, calls attention to the accelerating exploitation of animals in the period of industrial modernity and questions what it is possible to know about animals' own experiences. Foundational theoretical approaches to understanding the historical and philosophical condition of thinking about animals—John Berger's "Why Look at Animals?" (1972), Thomas Nagel's "What Is It Like to Be a Bat?" (1974), and Jacques Derrida's "The Animal That Therefore I Am (More to Follow)" (2002)—propose a fundamental aporia or gap between human and animal experiences, and they caution against the projection of anthropocentric categories onto animal lives. Many novels from this recent period likewise treat animals as charismatic strangers. Yet other contemporary literature sometimes reimagines human-animal relationships to insist on affinity and continuity. In such novels, animals prompt diverse and often experimental stylistic choices that put pressure on the novel's traditional association with everyday life, the individual self, the boundaries of the nation, and empirical observation more broadly. Still, many recent novels remain essentially committed to a realist tradition. Some of these—most notably by J. M. Coetzee—depict relations of care between humans and often vulnerable or dependent animals that prompt reflection on the meaning of ethical action. In novels that purport to narrate from animals' own perspective, writers likewise meditate on the ethics of interspecies relations as they use language innovatively in an effort to realistically evoke the sensorium of another species. Pushing the boundaries of realism, other novels reinvent the animal fable, using varying degrees of fantasy to imagine wild or domesticated animals as tropes that reflect upon human embodiment, community, and politics. Whether realist or fabulist, the novels of contemporary postcolonial and world literature particularly explore the power and limits of mapping histories of human belonging and domination onto animal figures, even as they often highlight the limitations of these comparisons. Not all of these approaches are equally invested in creating a literature that could materially impact the lives of animals in an era of diminishing biodiversity. However, uniting this varied and ever-growing array of novels is a question of how literature can represent the lives of intimately entangled bodies in a globalizing world.
Archipelagoes and Oceania in Asian American and Pacific Islander Literary Studies
Harrod J. Suarez
What is the difference between studying an archipelago and studying archipelagically? As research in literary critical studies has shown, the difference is significant and what results from each profoundly distinct and possibly at odds with each other. If one approaches the archipelago as an empirical entity—that is, as a chain of islands—there has been the tendency to regard it as smaller and more isolated than other geographic formations, which then determines its marginalization even when working with the advent of transnational and postcolonial rubrics. On the other hand, if the archipelago, following Édouard Glissant and others, is conceptualized as a mode of analysis, then studying different landscapes, histories, narratives, and cultures becomes an altogether different endeavor. Using such approaches to animate the relationship between Oceania and Asian American and Pacific Islander literary studies has been the focus of numerous critics working at the intersections of these and other fields. A controversy that received national media attention framed certain of the stakes involved in the effort to address Oceania, a moment of representational crisis that produced rich responses and galvanized efforts to deal rigorously with the field's heterogeneity, hybridity, and multiplicity. The resulting epistemological pursuits seem to emphasize the need to study archipelagically, opening up new frameworks and problematics crucial for reimagining the place of Oceania in diverse fields.
The Chapter in Western Literature
Nicholas Dames
First known as a kephalaion in Greek, capitulum or caput in Latin, the chapter arose in antiquity as a finding device within long, often heterogenous prose texts, prior even to the advent of the codex. By the 4th century
Julian Murphet
Character is a property of narrative and discursive textuality, even as it is also a moral and ethical category referring to individual and collective norms of behavior and motive. This double valence has affected the concept since Aristotle and Plato first began the unfinished, centuries-long project of literary theory. On the one hand, stemming from Aristotle, there has been a tradition of formalist conceptions of character, understanding it as a device used by writers to drive narrative momentum and effect transformations within the discourse. The domain of action, and its variously entailed reactions and consequences, was thought to belong to the agents of narrative discourse by rights, while what was generally called their "character" typically concerned the incidental qualifications and explanations of their actions in speech and thought. Once that distinction is made, however, there are smaller and smaller units into which agency can logically be subdivided, and more and more arbitrary and capricious qualities of character used to flesh out an abstract narratological principle. The histories of formalism, structuralism, and poststructuralism attest to this labor of specialization and fissiparous subdivision of the bound concepts of agent and character. On the other hand, stemming from Plato, we see a centuries-long interest in the mutually interactive relations between imaginary persons, or fictional selves, and the fashioning of public or social selves in regimes of education and discipline. The question of the role of literary characters in the formation of good citizens, or indeed delinquent ones, is one that refuses to go away, since it has proven impossible to separate fiction from reality in the complex processes of self-fashioning through which every subject must go. One last matter of interest has exerted more theoretical influence over the concept in recent years, and that is the topic of affects: the qualities and intensities of human feelings can be seen to have had a major bearing on the writing and elaboration of fictional beings, and vice versa, at least since the late 19th century.
Circulating Libraries in the Victorian Era
Troy J. Bassett
Beginning in the 18th century and continuing throughout the 19th century, circulating libraries became an integral part of the literary marketplace as the chief means of distributing books. Subscribers paid an annual or per-book fee to rent volumes: during the Victorian period, the typical subscription rate was one guinea (21s) per year to borrow one volume at a time. The relatively high price of books made circulating libraries an economical means for many middle-class families to access books: for less than the price of one three-volume novel (one-and-a-half guineas, or 31s 6d), a subscriber could borrow dozens if not more volumes. Hundreds of circulating libraries existed during the Victorian period, but the two largest were Mudie's Select Library (1842–1937) and W. H. Smith and Son's Subscription Library (1860–1961). Mudie's, headquartered in London, had upwards of 50,000 subscribers, established branches in other major cities, and shipped books around the world. W. H. Smith added a library department to its pre-existing network of railway bookstalls with larger branches in major cities. Between them, Mudie's and W. H. Smith became the largest purchasers of books and thereby had a direct and indirect effect on Victorian literature. In particular, the three-volume novel system—whereby the high price limited sales to the libraries who then had a monopoly on new fiction—encouraged British readers to become book borrowers instead of book buyers. The format of the three-volume novel led to certain generic conventions influencing areas such as characterization, plot, and style, which remained until the format was abolished in 1894. Since the libraries, especially Mudie's and W. H. Smith, largely controlled the distribution of literature, they often exerted an informal censorship on literature which some authors, such as George Moore, advocated against.
Concepts of Reading in the Digital Era
Lutz Koepnick
Digital reading has been an object of fervent scholarly and public debates since the mid-1990s. Often digital reading has been associated solely with what may happen between readers and screens, and in dominant approaches digital reading devices have been seen as producing radically different readers than printed books produce.
Far from merely reducing digital reading to a mere matter of what e-books might do to the attention spans of individual readers, however, contemporary critiques emphasize how digital computing affects and is being affected by neurological, sensory, kinetic, and apparatical processes. The future of reading has too many different aspects to be discussed by scholars of one discipline or field of study alone. Digital reading is as much a matter for neurologists as for literary scholars, for engineers as much as ergonomicians, for psychologists, physiologists, media historians, art critics, critical theorists, and many others. Scholars of literature will need to consult many fields to elaborate a future poetics of digital reading and examine how literary texts in all their different forms are and will be met by 21st-century readers.
Contemporary Fiction and Modernism
Ryan Trimm
Modernism stands as the signal literary upheaval of the long 20th century, and yet the tenuousness of its appeal to "make it new," as Ezra Pound commanded, entails the period or periods that follow are likewise uncertain save in their reference to modernism. However, even here there is ambivalence: contemporary authors might be charted regarding their modernist literary forebears, yet many explicitly reject modernist methods altogether; others continue this legacy, and still more look to complexly incorporate and negotiate modernist methods. Likewise, theoretical accounts of postwar fiction mark what comes after in reference to modernism: postmodernism, post-postmodernism, and the like. Modernism's outsize shadow stems from its association with literary experimentation, aesthetic innovations elevating its austere emphasis on form above such traditional concerns as telling stories and creating characters. Though swaths of Anglophone fiction reject these modernist impulses and return to realist narratives, contemporary fiction must also be viewed as occurring within an era in which modernism has become institutionalized in university reading lists and the practices of their creative writing programs. Fiction after modernism thus might be best viewed as encompassing competing impulses, often within the same text or author: to revert to traditional modes of storytelling and thereby reject modernism; to borrow aspects of modernist technique but develop them so form might convey not only a sense of interior experience or textuality but also situate characters and texts socially (and globally); and to return afresh to those literary experiments, investing them with new relevance. These divided relations between contemporary fiction and aesthetic modernism underscore a complex and conflicted temporality operative within the very conceptions of both modernism and the contemporary.
Fairy-Tale Symbolism: An Overview
Francisco Vaz da Silva
Because the marvelous elements in fairy tales call for an explanation, a cohort of bright minds have pored over the problem of fairy-tale symbolism. Models sharing the nineteenth-century penchant for genetic inquiries have assumed that symbols are the survivals of archaic metaphors. Thus, Max Müller proposed that myths and fairy tales stem from obscured metaphors about solar phenomena; Sigmund Freud speculated that fairy-tale symbolism is the fossilized residue of primordial sexual metaphors; and Carl Jung submitted that symbols express immanent archetypes of the human psyche. Such early approaches assume that symbols convey fixed meanings, and they disregard the effects of folklore variation on meanings.
Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm did take variation into account. They conceived Märchen in terms of immanent blueprints incessantly recreated in myriad retellings, but they never tried to make sense of the themes by means of the variants. This path was taken by folklorists influenced by Freud. Alan Dundes proposed to harness tale variants to grasp symbolic equivalences, and he pioneered the study of folk metaphors. But Dundes focused on preset Freudian symbols, a trend that Bengt Holbek followed. To this day, the prospect of addressing fairy-tale symbolism beyond Freud's assumption of fixed translations remains elusive.
Nevertheless, the basic tools are available. Maria Tatar remarked that fairy tales are metaphoric devices, and Claude Lévi-Strauss pointed out that metaphors—in switching terms that belong to different codes—lay bare the broader semantic field underlying each transposition. Müller, Freud, Dundes, Tatar, and Lévi-Strauss variously glimpsed metaphoric patterns in tale variations. The time is ripe to synthesize these intuitions in the light of contemporary cognitive research on conceptual metaphor, so as to address the creative dynamics of symbolism in fairy tales.

Rivera is accused of killing a man after injecting his penis with silicone for a penile enhancement procedure. Apparently men are paying top dollar on the black market to make sure their d*ck is ReDICKulous… so much so that they'll die for it.

"Superman Returns" had a strong takeoff domestically and overseas, though it didn't fly into the stratosphere.
Warner. Bros.' restart of the superhero franchise took in $21 million domestically at 3,915 playdates on Wednesday, in line with studio expectations and virtually even with the $21.3 million Paramount drew from "War of the Worlds" last year on its opening Wednesday before July 4.
Figures include Tuesday 10 p.m. shows, which sources indicated accounted for about $4 million of the total, though the studio would not confirm that. WB justified including the previous night's opening shows, which essentially gave the film 26 hours of play for one day, by noting that the two-hour, 37-minute running time meant there would be few midnight shows on a Tuesday.
In four foreign markets, "Superman Returns" grossed $1.3 million on 548 prints in three markets Wednesday, comfortably taking first place in the Philippines, South Korea and Thailand.
On Thursday, pic opened to $919,000 at 407 playdates in Australia, also about even with "War of the Worlds." Other opening markets Thursday, for which grosses weren't available, included Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Singapore and Taiwan.
Domestically, "Superman Returns" saw the eighth-biggest opening Wednesday ever. (Two years ago, "Spider-Man 2" set a record with its $40.4 million debut.) "Superman" came in comfortably ahead of the opening Wednesday for WB's previous effort to re-start a franchise, "Batman Begins," which took $15 million its first day in June 2005 and went on to cume $205 million.
The only near-record overseas was in the Philippines, where the $408,000 gross at 81 theaters was market's second biggest ever.
Stateside, males made up 58% of the opening-day auds. Tracking indicates pic was lagging with women, but WB is hoping that men were more likely to come out the first day and women will prove more interested as the weekend wears on. Auds were virtually split between those over and under 25.
Seventy-six Imax screens accounted for $1.17 million, giving the 3-D version of the film an awesome $15,400-per-play average in just one day.
After bowing to $21.3 million, "War of the Worlds" went on to make $112.7 million by Monday, July 4. With an extra day until the holiday this year, Warner is hoping "Superman" will soar past that figure by the end of its long "weekend," which is essentially seven days.
Only fresh competition will be "The Devil Wears Prada," which Fox sends down the runway at 2,846 theaters today. Female-oriented counterprogramming has traditionally done poorly when opening against tentpoles, but "Prada" is tracking relatively well with women, and Fox is looking for a gross in the mid-teens for the three-day weekend and likely over $20 million by Tuesday.
That will probably put the Meryl Streep starrer in third or fourth place, behind the second frame of Sony's "Click" and close to the fourth weekend for Disney-Pixar's "Cars."
Warner has decided to wait until the World Cup ends July 9 to go outside Asia and Australia with "Superman Returns." It will launch in mid-July in Brazil, France, Mexico and the U.K.; it will wait until mid-August to open in Germany and Japan.
In other foreign activity this weekend, studios continue to counterprogram the World Cup in targeted markets. BVI is expanding "Cars" into Argentina, Brazil, Japan, Mexico and Portugal; Warner is launching "Poseidon" in Scandinavia; Fox bows "Just My Luck" in the U.K. and Russia; and UIP is launching "Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" in Mexico, Russia and Sweden and "Over the Hedge" in Hong Kong and the U.K.
The relative dearth of new competition means Sony's "The Da Vinci Code" will continue to pull in significant grosses. "Code" chalked up $1.9 million on Wednesday, becoming the 12th pic to top $500 million in foreign box office, joining "Titanic," "Jurassic Park," "Finding Nemo," "Independence Day," the four "Harry Potter" pics and the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
Worldwide cume for "Code" has surpassed $707 million, with 71% of that coming from foreign markets.

There are no laws for legal separation in Texas as of 2014. For a married couple who has not yet decided to file for divorce, informal separations are often arranged.Continue Reading
The state of Texas has no provisions for marital court battles concerning legal separations. The two parties involved are not fully protected by the law since no documentation validates a legal separation. Couples often enter into written agreements regarding spousal and child support and the division of assets and liabilities. The terms in the agreement only become binding on the court if a judge decides that the terms are just and right. This written agreement can be made as a reference if couples decide to file for divorce in the future.Learn more about Law

9 P.M. (BBC America) CHRISTMAS LIGHTS -- So much for tasteful British restraint. The usually dashing Robson Green (shown above in "Wire in the Blood") stars in this television movie about two suburbanites (Mr. Green and Mark Benton) who have been friends since boyhood and can't get past their childish habit of constant competition. As adults, they are married to sisters, live in the same neighborhood, work for the same company and are now trying to outdo each other's holiday decorations. The neighbors will suffer.
8 P.M. (Fox) ICE AGE -- A woolly mammoth, a sloth and a saber-toothed tiger rescue a human infant while the planet freezes over. The voices in this animated film, which could have been called "Three Prehistoric Bachelors and a Baby," include those of Ray Romano, John Leguizamo and Denis Leary.
9:30 P.M. (ABC) HOT PROPERTIES -- What have we here? It's a brand-new sitcom episode in the middle of a sea of reruns. Harry Hamlin guest-stars as a handsome real estate client who makes Ava (Gail O'Grady, above, with Mr. Hamlin) forget, just a little, that she's a happily married woman. Around the same time, Ava's associate Chloe (Nicole Sullivan) meets a strong, silent bodyguard. Just her type, she thinks.
9:30 P.M. (FX) THAT 70's SHOW -- "An Eric Forman Christmas." Fans who really miss Topher Grace (he left the series at the end of last season) can reminisce with this 2001 holiday episode. Eric (Mr. Grace) is directing a church Christmas pageant and upsetting his friends with his casting decisions. Surely the libidinous Jackie (Mila Kunis) doesn't expect to play the Virgin Mary.
10 P.M. (TCM) A CHRISTMAS CAROL (1938). Here's the prewar Hollywood version of Dickens's story again, starring Reginald Owen as the grumpy old miser Ebenezer Scrooge and Gene Lockhart (father of June) as his poor but cheerful clerk, Bob Cratchit.
Midnight (Comedy Central) SOUTH PARK -- "Merry Christmas, Charlie Manson!" While Cartman (right) is visiting his grandmother for the holidays, his disreputable Uncle Howard escapes from prison and turns up at Grandma Cartman's door with an infamous fellow inmate. That inmate, Mr. Manson, tries to do evil things but becomes distracted by and fascinated with holiday television specials. ANITA GATESContinue reading the main story

Number Four (aka Daniel Jones; John Smith)
Number Four has been on Earth now for ten years with the other eight Legacies. He is aided by Henri, a fifty year old man who is also from his home world. Wherever he goes, he carries his emergency kit containing five days worth of dried fruit and nuts; extra thermal socks and underwear; a handheld GPS; a rain jacket and a knife that is disguised as a pen. Henri constantly reminds him that if his hands start to shake or his fingers disappear; if he loses musculature control or shakes violently; or if he begins to hear voices, he is to call Henri immediately.
Number Four was only five when they arrived and the first scar didn't show up until he was nine. He got the second when he was twelve and the third when he was fifteen. Now, he knew...

HistorySome of Seattle's first settlers (pioneers, if you will) chose to build their cabins here, and the area quickly grew after Henry Yesler chose to erect the first steam-powered lumber mill on the pier. Tragedy struck on June 6, 1889, when the entire downtown went up in flames. Pioneer Square was, again, the place where rebuilding started. Many of these structures still stand today and have been protected from property developers by Seattle's historic preservation movement.

VibePioneer Square isn't necessarily known for its residential appeal, although that is set to change in the next few years. A plan is in motion to build a large housing development in place of the north lot of Century Link field. This will bring not only hundreds of new apartments and condos, but retail and office spaces as well. In the meantime, the neighborhood still has much to offer in the way of art galleries, bars and restaurants, and various yearly events.
Activities and AttractionsIf you're curious about the history of this great city, Pioneer Square should be your first stop. The underground tour is world-famous and takes groups of people under the streets to see a glimpse of Seattle's past—the buildings and alleys that were buried after the great fire of 1889. You may also want to check out the nation's smallest national park—The Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. This little-known museum will teach you all about Seattle's role in the Yukon gold rush in the 1890s. Finally, head up to the observation deck of the Smith Tower—one of the world's first skyscrapers—to see an amazing view of Seattle. For a more modern view of the neighborhood, head to Pioneer Square on the First Thursday of the month for their giant art walk. This free tour of pretty much any gallery you want to walk into has been going strong for over 30 years and is a Seattle favorite. In fact, many other neighborhoods have adopted the tradition themselves. If you're hungry, try out Tat's Delicatessen for their famous east-coast style cheesesteak sandwich. Late at night, try out Central Saloon. Established in 1892, this thing is Seattle's oldest bar by a long shot.

Matching Outfits
If we are all going to be in the picture, I do my best to coordinate outfits. I pick 1-2 colors and raid our closets to find the best matches. Sometimes I need to go out and buy something, but we almost always have the basics such as black and white or blue jeans and white shirts.
Don't Say Cheese!
If you tell the kids to say cheese, they're going to look, well, cheesy! Let them have some freedom on their poses and have fun. If they're genuinely happy, you'll get some great shots.
Be Sneaky
Don't make a big deal out of getting pictures taken. Simply dress them up and follow them around. Some of my favorite pictures were taken when my kids weren't even paying attention to me.
Keep Snapping
If you're taking the pictures yourself, snap away! There is no such thing as too many pictures and you can delete as many "bloopers" as you'd like. Sometimes I end up taking 100 pictures only to have a handful of great ones. Most look something like this-
Let A Professional Step In
While I enjoy taking pictures of my growing family, I am no photographer. I make sure to book a session with professionals so that I can have quality photos of our family each year. jcpenney Portrait Studio is always having great promotions to make professional portraits a little more affordable.
We will be taking advantage of their April promotion of $20 for 6 traditional portrait sheets (mix and match size and images) as well as one free $9 sitting fee. We still haven't gone anywhere to get pictures taken since Kallie Jane was born and this deal is too good to pass up! I would love to get a great picture of the three kids together. I still don't have a good one with the three of them. I made a Portrait Inspirations Board on Pinterest that I plan on using over the next year. We'll be hitting many milestones that I can't wait to capture and remember forever.

I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of jcpenney Portrait Studio. I was asked to create a Pinterest Board and pin at least five (5) pins. I give jcpenney the right to repin any or all images/original content from this board. I received a promotional item as a thanks for my participation.

First Hospital of Riga
"Rīgas 1.Slimnīca" / "Riga 1st Hospital" – official name and also historically accurate, as this is the first civil hospital of Riga.
Officially established in the year of 1803 as a hospital for the poor people of Riga. During the 19th century the hospital was improved and redesigned. Quite a lot of medical breakthroughs in Russian Empire and later in Latvian Republic were started there.
Just opposite to the Hospital there is an old Beer Brewery building and also some interesting wooden architecture around it.
