In my case it was when a counselor to my special needs daughter challenged me to help her through high school and I couldn't without a college education. The origin scene is where my misbelief about not being college material came into play. The origin scene and misbelief started when I myself tried to sign up for college prep courses and was told more or less that I was not smart enough to make it.

Always a pleasure seeing you here at Adventures in Writing, Crystal. All the best to you, my dear.

My Dad helped me to understand math while in grade school, and my Mom helped me in other subjects. Then I came around and did well. Even made it to the honor roll. I kept hoping for my special needs daughter, but she has different issues.

At the time I was thinking about college, most women in my neighborhood took secretarial courses to be secretaries like our moms. And that is what I did. There was no money for college anyway.

If I had received my BA earlier in life, I would have continued for the MA. However, after ten years of "mom going to college," my family couldn't wait for me to be less stressed and have more time for them. But then I started writing fulltime.

Always a pleasure seeing you here at Adventures in Writing. Enjoy your day!

You grabbed my attention. Well done! I totally understand the importance of an origin scene and you make me hunt for one of my own - one that defined the first moment of me wanting to explore the world and live an alternative life, which I think should be (one of) the theme(s) in my memoir.

On another, important note, I think that adults should encourage children to belief in themselves and to follow their (approachable) dreams.

Life is interesting ...

Definitely we should be in a world of 'we can help ourselves and get on, and we can ask and learn along the way' and help your kid find the best way forward for them - that was not around for me - but my parents would I'm sure have been helpful, had circumstances been right for them.

Well done you - five children is plenty for many parents and one who needs that extra help ... I admire you - and I'm glad the Story Genius course is helping ... good luck and continue to write and tell stories ...

I wasn't supposed to go to college either--not a lot of money and the expectation that I'd marry and have children. Why would I need an education beyond high school? When I got my BA, my dad came around a bit. When I got my MA he was in the audience with tears. And I married and had kid. I wanted it all, and I got it. Seems as if you did, too.

As 2017 comes to an end it's pretty standard to reflect upon the things that happened in the past year. I was able to take a road-trip to Boston with my fraternity, Kappa Kappa Psi, to attend a conference in February. In May I graduated college with a Bachelor of Science in Communications and started living on my own over the Summer for the first time. May was also the beginning of my goal to learn French fluently. June placed me in Field Artillery school (shortly after I started this blog), which ended up being a total bust (turns out I can't get promoted because of time left on my contract). July allowed me to take a road-trip to Canada with my girlfriend, which was her first time in Canada and my first time in Québec. In October I was accepted to law school which really showed me that I found the field I'm meant to be in. December solidified that by revealing my first 4.0 of my life.
I think that 2017 was actually a very good year, being unemployed most of the Summer was rough but I was able to bounce back economically and other than that I really enjoyed everything that 2017 had to offer. I look forward to 2018.
My goals continue in 2018, I'd like to get to level C1 in French, I'd like to notice an improvement in my jiu jistu, and in the Fall I'd like to do well in my first semseter of law school.
I'm sure that I will make many short and medium term goals to help me reach these year long goals, plus small goals that are outside of these, like completing my Marvel watch through.

Arizona Realtors Get the Gold, Lawyers and Car Salesmen Settle for Silver and Bronze
I've been here trying to find a house to buy. I am very near ground zero in the foreclosure crisis. I have seen well over one hundred homes in the Bullhead City/Fort Mojave area which is just across the river. Virtually every house I have seen is a a foreclosure. Short sales are a hideous pain in the ass due primarily to the banks. They just sit chilly on a full price offer. They are in no hurry to add to existing inventory. They can do this- thanks in no small part- to American taxpayers who backstopped their shitty balance sheets and replenished their reserves.
People, investors with cash have been buying a lot of homes down here. The ongoing transfer of wealth in America from the have nots to the haves- is in full bloom here.
Tonight I am getting ready to file a complaint with the Arizona Board of Realtors on a Bullhead City realtor. First a little background.
I have made a total of five offers on houses here in the past two weeks. Two of them have been three to five thousand over the asking price. I am still homeless. But the story I want to tell you happened over the weekend. It is priceless.
On Thursday, I stumbled onto a foreclosure that had just been placed on the market, that day. They had not even finished cleaning it up. It was in great shape- no holes in the walls, it was on a big lot, and it was owned by the bank. My realtor called the listing agent on Thursday afternoon and asked if there were any offers on the house. He said there were none. On Friday, we looked at the home in the afternoon. On Saturday morning, I made an offer 3k under the asking price which was emailed and faxed. On Monday, the listing agent informed my realtor that the home had been sold on Friday.
Let me tell you how this offer and answer shit works down here. Banks do no take the first offer they get nor do they answer right away. They wait until a bidding war erupts and then make more money. I am sure it is that way everywhere. What banks do not do, is sell homes to the first person who makes an offer. Unless I suppose it was so extraordinarily high that they couldn't refuse. But I doubt it. Quite honestly, I think this realtor has lied and banks don't know what the hell these guys are doing. They have hundreds of files on their desks.
Now I have been cursed with a highly vigilant mind honed to razor sharpness by 25 years of law enforcement. I know a deceptive and crooked statement when I hear one. And my bullshit meter hit the redline when I heard that statement. It simply flies in the face of what is in a bank's best interests and what I have experienced these past couple of weeks. Banks do not respond to offers quickly. I am still waiting to hear on an offer I made a week ago, nearly 10% over the asking price! I thought the law requires a broker to present all offers to a seller...but if you claim the home was sold in one day with the first offer...prior to my offer...then maybe you can get away with that shit. We'll see. I've learned over the years that any kind of justice comes on a slow boat from China.
So today, I put in another offer over the asking price on another house. This time the listing agent said, and I am quoting via email, "there is a deal in the works." What the fuck does that mean? The house isn't for sale? If that falls through then I guess he will present my offer to the seller. That these realtors are buying these foreclosures with friends and flipping them with a little work is hardly earth shattering. That I have been involved in two if these shady deals in one week is starting to piss me off just a bit.
I have no fondness for lawyers and car salesmen. I have shunned therapy and tranquilizers. After getting hosed on my last house (thanks in large measure to an owner who lied on the disclosure and a realtor who talked me out of the home inspection- we were all "friends" prior to the sale) and having lived through all of the shady shit that I have in the last two weeks...I am moving two Arizona realtors and one Idaho realtor into my top slot. This is a sanctuary I reserve for lying, thieving, shysters. Gold medal types.
So tonight I am contemplating buying a house from a real live homeowner. It is not a foreclosure or a short sale so there is little opportunity for a "shysty" realtor to pull some scam. Yet. In the meantime, I have an online form to fill out for my latest gold medal winners.

I was a realtor for 10 years, it sucked, so quit. But, what you stated is true. Shit goes on all the time. Listing agents always like to sell their listings. Some other agent comes in with an offer over the weekend takes a back set to his. Difficult to prove otherwise. Banks never make a decision in one day. More like a week plus. Especially with 4 million inventory, plus another 4 million coming online. Short sales suck, with a capital S!I left in 2002, but they havent changed sounds like. They can take a month or more to get an answer from the bank. To many fingers in the pie. Banks try to make the sellers sign a agreement to pay the difference, so those negotiations have to be completed first. Most times realtors are doing their best, but, shit happens behind the scenes they have no control over. I had a buyer and seller, negotiate after the signed deal was agreed. Then at closing it blew up, and then I found out they both had promised shit under the table. Its a crazy business model, work your ass off, pay for stuff up front and then hope to get paid at closing, 45 days to 1 year later. Glad I quit!

I know there are good realtors. I have friends (and one ex friend who is a realtor) that were decent people. Shitty hours, demanding people. But this scene down here is atrocious. Fascinating really. Thanks for writing Richard.

It is always a prudent idea to hire the services of an experienced Realtor when buying or selling a home. It helps save time, obtain the most appropriate deal and achieve the best market value, which makes it worthwhile even after paying the Realtor's commission or fee.

IN DEEP: Visibility gets the all-clear
MANY divers may decide to postpone their diving plans because they believe the recent heavy rains may have a detrimental effect on diving conditions.
This is generally not the case but the majority of divers would prefer going out on the water when the sun is shining.
Only the most dedicated divers will go diving when it is cold, windy and wet.
It needs to rain heavily for at least a few days before extensive brown-coloured fresh water reaches our offshore reefs.
The majority of diving takes place at least five kilometres off the coast.
While the underwater visibility can be reduced just off our beaches, it takes a lot of fresh water to reduce the visibility on our reefs.
Often, only the top few metres of water are affected.
Divers are often surprised when they dive into brown-looking water only to descend into sparkling blue water.

Tired Tuesday? Maybe a Movie Will Help.
Woke up this morning feeling quite pooped, and still haven't gotten into the swing of things. Hopefully things will turn around as the day progresses.
Anyway, short post today because, as I mentioned, it's just not gelling for me at the moment. However, I'm curious about movies. What's on people's list for movies they want to see?
I'm a Twilight fan (the books, first, but the movies are cool, too), and I adore that Taylor Lautner kid who plays Jacob in the films. He seems so sweet. So, I'm going to try to catch Abduction (despite terrible reviews) today since it's $5 Tuesdays at the Greenbelt Academy 8 theater (all movies are $5 all day).
However, after that, there's nothing else that I'm particularly excited to see. Moneyball, What's Your Number and the Ides of March are seeable films that pique my interest, but not films I couldn't wait for Redbox to see. There's a Justin Timberlake film, In Time, that I saw an ad for that looks pretty good that I might be willing to pay theater money to see, but it doesn't come out until the end of October. It seems like a tired time of year for films, too, I guess.
That's it for today.
Catch you Wednesday.

She looks to the goal of making us children independent, successful, and competent in the world and while she challenges me to push my limits and work through struggles, she also hardly ever criticize me. She is there supporting me whether I win or lose, pass or fail. She is my leadership role model because I want to instill a drive in my followers but also have them know that they are important to me no matter what they accomplish. My mother would agree one must focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses.
Some advisors will tell you to select a strength and present it as a weakness. Such as: I work too much. I just work and work and work. Wrong. First of all, using a strength and presenting it as a weakness is deceiving. Second, it misses the point of the question.
Our editors will offer commentary about the strengths and weaknesses of your essay, in addition to proofreading for obvious errors, and paragraph transitions.
You should have clear stories that demonstrate your weaknesses, something many applicants initially have a problem with. Additionally knowing how a program will help you overcome your weakness will explain why you want to attend that school. Finally, SOME, BUT NOT All weaknesses make for great failure stories, another very common topic for interviews.
Individual areas within the company which might be considered for our analysis of strengths and weaknesses could include: (Each area should be considered based on the particular company, its markets, competition, customers, products and services offered.)
2. Is a weakness fixable? If you are writing about a weakness that cannot be improved upon through your program at school X, why does your interviewer need to know about it?
First, you must be able to identify your own personal strengths and weaknesses in order to become a lifelong learner and an essential part of a ?team?.
For even the best student-writers, the challenge of writing an essay of this nature is parsing out the pertinent information and molding it into a coherent composition.
American and British Strengths and WeaknessesThe question remains: What factors led an undisciplined, unprepared, divided American nation to prevail over the world's largest empire?
The purpose of this paper is to clearly define each of my strengths and weaknesses and figure out a way to identify my personal strengths and weaknesses.

Accounting, including A/R and A/P: While not usually included in strengths and weaknesses in most analyses, we suggest that this area be included to the extent that it impacts any interactions with customers.

AMERICAN CANYON >> Late-arriving mail. Mail theft. Lines at the post office that are so long, people give up and go elsewhere.
These are a few of the postal grievances expressed by those who filled the Canyon Oaks Elementary School multi-purpose room Tuesday for a meeting with U.S. Rep. Mike Thompson, city officials and representatives of the United States Postal Service.
The city council plans to submit a formal request for a new post office in coming weeks.
Though several people expressed gratitude to Thompson and the USPS for getting the city its own Zip Code in the 1990s — separating it from Vallejo at least in that way — and its small, part-time post office, they also noted the city's population has expanded significantly since then, while their postal services have not.
Residents have been plagued with postal-related problems for years. And Tuesday's meeting was not the first officials have had on the issue.
"The fact of the matter is, this is the fourth meeting I've had with your group myself, and my staff has had many more," Thompson told the USPS reps present. "It shouldn't take an act of Congress to get something done."
USPS District Manager Robert Reynosa, USPS Inspector Kevin Rho, and Dean Cameron, who does real estate development for the agency, joined Thompson, American Canyon Mayor Leon Garcia and outgoing City Manager Dana Shigley on a dais on a small stage Tuesday. Others filled several front-row seats.
When Rho asked for a show of hands of audience members who had been victims of mail theft, a sea of raised hands filled the room. This surprised no one.
He went on to give some tips on avoiding being a mail theft victim: "Don't make it easy," and "report it" if it happens. The audience was told postal officials are nearly done switching the cluster boxes around town to a new, more tamper-resistant type with new, copy-resistant locks.
When Cameron said he recognized that residents in Napa County's second-largest city want a new or larger post office, the room erupted in applause.
"We see the building is quite small, with post office boxes outside and that the request has been in the works for a decade," he said, and went on to explain the process the agency uses to determine if a community should have a post office and what size it should be.
"Just so there's no misunderstanding," Thompson said. "You know this community wants and needs a new post office, right?"
Garcia spoke about the frustration many in town experienced during a rash of mail thefts that forced victims to travel to Vallejo for months to get their mail.
"Our post office can only hold four people at once," he said, noting that this forces everyone else in line to wait outside, which is especially problematic in the rain. He thanked Thompson for his efforts in getting the city its Zip Code and post office, but noted that was some 10,000 in population ago, and the city is only growing.
"Now is the time to plan for a larger post office for our city," he said.
Shigley noted that staff had visited other Napa County post offices and found that many with smaller populations have bigger, and better staffed facilities.
"In Angwin, for instance, they have 3,000 people but their post office is open 10 hours and they have five times more post office boxes," she said. "We expect to grow by 5,000 in the next few years. We're also concerned about business growth without adequate postal services."
The American Canyon post office is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and, according to a sign on the door, is closed from 1:45 to 2:30 p.m. to allow its one employee (whose efforts several people praised) a break, although the area Postmaster, Sam Jones — who covers Vallejo and American Canyon — said postal employees are entitled to a half-hour lunch and that he'd look into this and several other matters mentioned.
"We also have a diverse community, with people using the post office to ship things out of the country and we no longer have passport services, here," Shigley said.
A couple of people questioned if it would be advantageous to disconnect American Canyon from Vallejo and Solano County, with one saying insurance rates, search engines and other things are impacted by the affiliation.
One of the postal representatives said their figures show that most American Canyon postal customers use the facility between noon and 2 p.m., prompting Thompson to suggest that since the office opens at 10 a.m., it cannot be known how many people would use it in the morning if it opened earlier.
One audience member said that while getting a new, bigger post office will likely take a while, getting another clerk and longer hours should be able to be accomplished more quickly.
"Rep. Thompson, we love you," former City Councilmember Joan Bennett said. "We love that you got us a Zip Code. But, we've been at this a long time and we don't see much action. I don't see much progress."
Napa County Supervisor and former City Councilmember Belia Ramos suggested the city's post office stay open late one night per week, like the library, right next door.
"We're looking for legitimizing that the services you provide to us and the business we provide to you is working the same way as any other customers," she said.
Reynosa said, basically, that the USPS would take the city's grievances and suggestions under advisement.
"All I can do is say I'll take all this information and we'll look at it," he said. "We'll do what we can to see what we can put in place."
Tuesday's meeting was unlikely to be the last on the matter.

It was frenzy on Friday for Americans hoping to win what was described as "the world's largest jackpot" of $640 million in an historic lottery. The chance to get suddenly very, very rich -- even if it was only a one-in-176-million chance -- sparked feverish ticket sales at convenience stores and news kiosks across the United States ahead of the 11.00pm (0300 GMT) drawing for the Mega Millions prize.
The jackpot hit a record level because no one had matched the magic five numbers and Mega Ball since January 24 -- a full 18 drawings with no winner.
The tickets made it unequivocally clear: this was nothing less than "the world's largest jackpot."
Mega Millions is played in 42 US states plus the national capital Washington and the US Virgin Islands. Foreigners can play, too, but they must be in the United States.
The lucky winner gets to choose between an immediate cash option or the full amount disbursed over 26 annual payments. The prize will then take a severe knock in federal and state taxes.
But whatever the final sum, it had already knocked the previous US record drawing of $390 million in 2007, out of the park.

Class Streaming
Labels: Kids, primary education
Labels: Kids, primary education
In fact Ian is lucky to have friends whom are very friendly and helpful. My April came back crying today, telling me that her friends didn't want to be "friend" with her anymore. Sigh... I also don't know what to do. Do you have idea how to console a crying kid like April?
Last year when they streamed the kids, my girl lost all of her classmates accept 2 others. :P So she had to start making friends all over again.
It's good to stream...can teach the better students more...and no need to spend most of the precious lesson time trying to discipline the naughty ones.
Of course, psychologists claim it is no good for the weaker students - actually, they like it too - can learn at their own level and pace...and can learn something. In a class of good/excellent students, they'll be totally lost and left far behind.
well, on the positive side, class steaming can help him to mix around more too
It's great that he has such helpful n good frens in class. There's a lot of "I dun wanna fren u" in my girl's sch. :) Maybe it's a girl thing. 1 min fren, 1 min dowan to fren. LOL
I don't agree with streaming and I believe the kids should all be treated the same. in fact the weaker ones should be given more attention to improve and not the other way round. Then again, I've chosen to send her to chinese school and she'll be subjected to streaming.. sigh !
You have to look from another angle, streaming is good for slower developed children so that the teachers in the class can keep pace with them.
For smarter kids, the teacher can bring them to a higher level of learning.
Hrm... I agree with class streaming, when I was a student it motivated me to study harder since all the classmates were competiting with each other!:p
In real life, none of our friend can stay with us forever... we have to adapt ourselves to new environment from time to time!:)
Don't worries, cheer up and enjoy your weekend!
p/s: Your boy is very strong and tough, I reckon he won't have any problem to adapt!
Yan: Guess every kid has to go thru this phase: I fren you, I don't fren you. My boy gets upset too when his friends tell him "I don't fren you". I always tell him each of us are different. Some friendly like him, some not so. We have to respect that. Then ask yourself one question. Find out if you have done something bad to them that made them say those words. Apologise sincerely if he did. If the answer is no, then why bothers. He kind of picked it up and has grown thicker skin by the day. Hahaha..
MG: He told me only two of his friends, a boy and a girl are with him next year. But then he says nevermind, can make new frens. Guess the mom is over concerned.
stp: Ya, good and bad.
smallkucing: Must learn to look at the bright side. :)
slavemom: It applies the same to the boys but my boy is thick skin. Hahaha
Elaine: Yup, good and bad but good that the classes other than the elite ones are grouped randomly and not by academic performance.
Michelle: Ya, I am ready for more hair pulling moments. Aiyaya..
Alice: Can imagine the tough competition among the classmates starting very soon.
is this apply to the chinese school only or kebangsaan school too? Aiyo...another two more years will be my turn to worry, when they goes to Primary school. :(

Isn't it about time for something rich, gooey and chocolate? I baked this Chocolate Chess Pie recently for a friend recuperating from a medical procedure and she pronounced it "to die for". Growing up in the South meant pies almost every weekend. When there were no fruits in season, the pies were more basic and included Egg Custard, Pecan, Lemon Chess and Chocolate Chess. Unfortunately, I did not learn the fine art of pie crust making. When frozen pie crusts came about, Mama jumped on them and I don't believe she ever made another pie crust from "scratch". I followed suite.
Actually, I don't even particularly like pie crust and have been caught eating the filling and leaving the crust. But don't tell anyone, OK.
Chess pies are very rich. No wonder! The ingredients are sugar, eggs, butter and maybe cream and something for flavor. Sometimes just the rich buttery flavor is enough. This one happens to be a very rich chocolate, is easy to make and will " wow" your friends! Go out and buy a frozen pie crust and whip this one up for dinner tonight.
Chocolate Chess Pie
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
Pinch of salt
2 eggs
1/4 cup melted butter
1 (5oz.) can evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 unbaked (9-inch) pie crust
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine sugar, cocoa and salt. Mix well and set aside.
Combine eggs, butter, milk and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Beat well. Add sugar mixture and mix well. Pour filling into a 9-inch pie unbaked pie crust. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Cool to room temperature before slicing.
You can top each slice with whipped cream, if desired. Serve small slices! Warning! This is VERY rich!

The role of performance analysis support within the coaching process is to produce quantitative and qualitative information to identify and evaluate important areas of performance. This analysis allows coaches to focus on those areas requiring attention and to discuss them with players through review sessions of selected video sequences and the information from the analysis.
Performance analysis support from ISN has been a constant support to the national team during tournament and training session. The analyst uses specialized notational software to code events that happen during the matches and produce information as effective and efficient as possible. Basically, the performance analyst collects video of national players and their opponents during tournaments. Then the main function is to provide a representative and simplified overview of statistical data about critical shots, tactical evaluation, movement analysis, and pattern play. This information is then used by coaches in developing training drills that help athletes improve performance.

If he eats enough of that do you think he'll be able to fly? A flying Ziggy would be quite something.

Apparently, Mr. Ziggy was in need of supplemental fiber. He is such a cutie patootie. Especially that look that says, "What?" with all the seed stuck to his muzzle.

Ziggy, my sweet Ziggy. I just want to tell you that Symba is telling me to type the following message. It is not from the human.
Dude- seriously? Bird seed? That's soooo passe. You need to get your mom to hook you up with the bagels at Panera. Now the seeds on those things are off the chain! For real! Maybe you need to go to the homeopathy doctor that I'm seeing. Dude, text me...I'll hook you up bro. The liver flavored supplement rocks!
Peace out lil dude...you might want to pop an Immodium tonight. I'm just sayin...not that I've shared this same experience. Well, maybe I have...but I was probably a wee toddler like you.
Yo, and Coke rocks! Poo Poo on the Pepsi!

Also with us this semester as a visiting scholar is Sylvia Mieszkowski, whom some of you will have met when she was teaching with us last semester.
Look out for Sylvia, or email us to find out how you can get in touch with her if you want to pick her brains. More detailed information about her work is available here.
By training, I am a scholar of comparative and English literature, cultural analysis and literary as well as cultural theory (specialising in gender studies, queer theory, psychoanalysis and semiotics) with a penchant for film studies. After a decade of teaching in Munich, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Berlin and, recently, at the AUP, I am currently enjoying a break from the didactic duties of an academic, to – undistractedly – pursue some of my recent research interests.
I love teaching – there, I've said it. The energy generated by the students' desire to understand, to learn, to know, and the joy and pride when they finally prove to themselves what they can think and do…for me, there is not much that can compare with it. In the long run, teaching can only remain fresh and exciting, however, if input is available in the shape of new research. In other words, every now and then the teacher has to be allowed to turn into a student of sorts, in order learn, think and write about new texts and performances or discover old stories and their cultural or political contexts.
On a small scale, this happens on days that are free of teaching, on weekends and during term breaks. But this is not enough. Sometimes the large scale is needed and this is what research sabbaticals are for. During my current sabbatical I am, in fact, going to divide my time between several projects.
One of these is the task of preparing the second book I wrote, during my time as an Assistant Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt, for publication. It is a contribution to what I keep calling 'literary sound studies', and analyses how the production, reception and interpretation of sounds in literary representation disturbs and dovetails with processes of meaning making and identity construction. Hopefully, Resonances of Alterity: Sound, Desire and Anxiety in Non-Realist Fiction, published by [transcript] will hit the market by the end of 2013.
My second project also belongs to the field of sound studies. Last September I co-organised a conference on "noise – geräusch – bruit: Medien und Kultur unstrukturierter Laute". My colleague Sigrid Nieberle (University of Erlangen, currently University of Kansas) and I are planning the publication of the conference proceedings.
Gender Studies and Queer Theory have been a focus in my research ever since I wrote my PhD thesis Teasing Narrative as a fellow of the research training group "Geschlechterdifferenz & Literatur" (Gender & Literature) at Munich University. During the next few months I shall spend some time working on a proposal for a network project titled "Queer Edges". The aim is to raise funding which will finance the organisation of a series of four workshops spread over two years. These workshops will bring together researchers from Salzburg, Berlin, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and (hopefully) Paris for the discussion of queer literature, film, theory, and material culture.
An entirely new pursuit of mine bears the working title "dis(re-)membering" and is about poetry on slavery, its bodies and communities. I will start exploring this topic by laying the groundwork for an article on NourbeSe Philip's Zong! (2008). The long-term plan in the background is to expand from there into a book project that will consider both poems written during the fight for abolition and contemporary pieces which comment on and/or commemorate the end of the transatlantic slave trade, roughly 200 years ago.
In 2013, my first professional trip will take me back to Frankfurt. Ex-Students of mine are organising a workshop titled "Rated Queer", and I am as proud as could be to have been asked to open the show. In March and April, I shall be spending some time in Salzburg, where I have been invited as a scientist in residence. I am also looking forward to contributing a paper on "Surface Control: Writing on skin in Peter Greenaway's The Pillow Book" to a conference titled Probing the Skin, held in Jena at the end of April. Further trips to Zürich, Berlin and Greifswald are planned for the second half this year, and I am looking forward to dividing the rest of my time between my desk in Paris and the AUPs rich choice of academic and cultural events.

It was with a small degree of disappointment that I read Marion Jones had been sentenced to six months in prison. The reality is that this woman through her own stupidity has thrown away a life of recognition and appreciation by being caught out in a lie but her crimes are not deserving of jail time.
There are serious questions about the danger of steroids that are quite separate from their use by sportspeople in the pursuit of the winning edge. Let's face it the current use of steroids in professional sports is a monster of out own creation. Sportspeople can become fabulously wealthy if they are winners. Winners are rewarded and losers, well, they come back another day and do it all over again, perhaps this time with some chemical assistance.
Steroids in sports...there are two options here; open slather or zero tolerance! The fact that those that seek the winning edge are going to continually invest in methods and mechanisms to get around the possibility of detection means that there will never be 100% eradication. It was interesting to note that the former Australian Head Swim Coach suggested that there should be serious consideration given to the open slather approach. He was obviously and quickly shot down, but all the same the point was a valid one and one with which we are all familiar--if you cannot beat 'em, join 'em.
The issue of steroid use in the general population is a completely different issue as the responsible use of steroids has generally been shown to enhance well-being and health. However, as with any drug the irresponsible use and abuse of any drug can have severe side-effects, including death! But to suggest that steroids are the evil of all evils is in and of itself irresponsible.
This post is not advocating that children should be permitted to use steroids. This post is suggesting that adults, in consultation with their doctors should be permitted to use steroids, even where their use is for cosmetic rather than health purposes. I hope one day I run for office and someone digs up this post and tries to attack me with it. But with a bit of luck before I ever run for office this debate will be long over and decided in favour of responsible use.
The simple reality is that if the debate is premised on the dangers to long or short term health then the debate must also include other harmful drugs. Tobacco and alcohol kill many thousands, perhaps millions, of people every year through out the world. Neither are illegal, why? For the purposes of consistency it would make perfect sense for the governments of the world to also go after these other killers and ban them absolutely and immediately rather than reducing the areas where you can legally kill yourself by banning smoking in public places for instance.
But the 1920s highlighted the fallacy that is prohibition! By banning steroids or making the possession of steroids an indictable and jailable offence does not prevent their use. It simply drives it underground and allows the development of a black market. The government would be in a better position if it was to legalize steroids. It could even be a revenue raiser in that where there is no legitimate medical use for the steroid prescribed then it is deemed to be for cosmetic use and there is a tax applied.
But back to Marion Jones and her very public fall from grace. She has been humiliated enough through the fact that she had to make a public admission of her guilt as it related to lying about the use of performance enhancing drugs. Her medals and records have been stripped from her personally and from the record books. She is banned from competition and is unlikely to ever have the opportunity to compete again except perhaps in some kind of masters competition in a couple of decades down the track (pun intended). Jail is supposed to rehabilitate the offender but it is unlikely to rehabilitate Marion Jones as most of her rehabilitation in the sense of understanding her crime has occurred with her public humiliation on an international scale.
Community service through giving back to the children of this world would be a much more suitable punishment. If Naomi Campbell can abuse her domestic help and get to sweep streets then it is strange that Marion Jones gets injected or smeared with a steroid and has to go to jail because she lied about it! Community service if the judge in the case wants to set an example then make her do a couple of thousand hours of community service at "Little Athletics" or something similar. Marion Jones' crime did not really hurt anyone but herself. It may have disappointed her family, friends, and fans but it did not hurt anyone but herself. The punishment on the other hand hurts her children who are going to be deprived of their mother for the next six months.
There is a need for balance in terms of the crime and the punishment...It is time for the justice system and judges to wake up an smell the coffee!
Post Script...
There is an interesting piece in The Age Newspaper (Australia) about how Marion Jones got her just desserts and that no one should have sympathy for her because she is a drug cheat...Most sportspeople caught using performance enhancing drugs are not jailed for using the drugs themselves. Marion Jones was not jailed for admitting to using steroids. She was, however, jailed for lying to Federal Investigators and misleading an investigation, a breach of the US Criminal Code.
Most of the commentary implies Jones was jailed for being a drug user and this is not only a misrepresentation of the facts but it is irresponsible. It was good to see that the quote by John Fahey, former NSW Premier and Federal Minister, and now Chief of the WADA, pointing out that Jones was not jailed for being a drug taker.
To suggest that Jones got off easier than she should have because she disappointed a lot of people is ludicrous! You do not go to jail for disappointing people. You go to jail for committing crimes! If people started getting sent to jail for disappointing their family, friends, and fellow citizens our jails would suddenly become much more over-crowded and financially burdensome for all of us. There is more value in keeping Jones out of jail than putting her behind bars for six months. Jones did not get what she deserved but rather she was given what was thought to be sufficient appeasement for the masses...
Her humiliation, once again, is more than punishment enough!

Spartans at the Gates : The Peloponnesian War has begun. An army of merciless Spartan invaders have arrived at the gates of Plataea, bent on obliterating the independent city-state and its inhabitants. Plataea's oldest allies, the Athenians, are spread too thin in their own campaigns to send help. Cut off and alone, the Plataeans have dug in behind their high walls for the coming attack, while the tyrannical Spartans prepare to lay siege. On a rugged mountain road, a young Plataean warrior named Nikias rides to Athens on an urgent quest. He carries with him a bag of ill-gotten gold, hoping to raise an army of mercenaries to help defend his citadel from the Spartan assault. But in the sprawling stronghold of Athens, Nikias encounters perils that prove to be more dangerous than those he has faced on the battlefield.

South Carolina signee Deon Green has a simplistic plan for the last few months of his senior year.
"Working out. Eating. Sleeping. Working out," the former Olympia (Fla.) defensive tackle said when asked about his plans for the time leading up to his enrollment at USC.
Green has already hit the ground running on the workout plans sent to him by the Gamecocks' strength and conditioning staff.
The 6-foot-4, 283-pounder knows that he needs to add strength and speed. Along with his weight room work, he's also training with an Orlando-area speed coach to improve his 4.9 time in the 40-yard dash.
If Green, who initially held 28 scholarship offers, gets any faster, it will be interesting to see if he's able to platoon as a defensive end in some packages for the Gamecocks. He was nearly impossible to block at the prep level as a 3-technique tackle, using his speed to create chaos for one of the state's best programs in Class 6A, the state's largest.
Green, who will enroll at USC this summer, would like to play as a true freshman in 2011, but he also understands the benefits of redshirting.
"If I can play as freshman it will be a blessing," said Green, a native of Orangeburg. "I wouldn't mind redshirting either. I need to get stronger. SEC offensive linemen are different than high school offensive linemen. So, I know one thing I need to do is get stronger."
