WHO blacklists BuzzFeed reporter, accidentally tells her
Good morning. Here are 10 media stories.
- WHO blacklists BuzzFeed reporter
World Health Organization spokesperson Laura Bellinger mistakenly CC'd BuzzFeed reporter Tasneem Nashrulla on an email saying "My understanding is that BuzzFeed is banned." Tarik Jasarevic, another WHO staffer weighed in on another email -- Nashrulla was still CC'd -- saying only BuzzFeed reporter Jina Moore, who is covering Ebola in West Africa, was blacklisted. Jasarevic has not replied to a request from Poynter for elaboration on the thinking behind such an extraordinary (and petty) step. (Mashable) | In August, Jasarevic listed among his duties "being available to report to national and international media about the situation," but he was talking to someone who worked for Bono, not Jonah Peretti. (One)
- Former SPJ treasurer sentenced
Scott Eric Cooper admitted embezzling more than $43,000 from SPJ's Oklahoma chapter and will serve a 10-year deferred sentence. He'll also make restitution payments of $350 per month and serve several weekends in jail. (The Norman Transcript) | Cooper published OKLegalNews and had won awards for his work on the alt-weekly Oklahoma Gazette; he told SPJ he had a gambling problem when he resigned in 2012. (This Land Press)
- NYT champions HTTPS
Eitan Konigsburg, Rajiv Pant and Elena Kvochko issue a "friendly challenge" to news-site publishers: Use the more secure Web transfer protocol HTTPS by the end of next year. HTTPS is better for readers' privacy and improves your search engine ranking, they write. (NYT) | Follow this hashtag to see who's on board.
- Minneapolis mayor responds to "#pointergate"
Betsy Hodges says it's likely "the head of the police union or other detractors will pitch more stories that attempt to defame that work and its leaders to various media outlets." (Mayor Betsy Hodges) | The Daily Show mocked the ridiculous KSTP story that sparked all this. (Minneapolis City Pages)
- One less platisher
Say Media plans to sell XoJane, ReadWrite and other sites. "The conclusion we've come to, and one lots of media companies wrestle with is, do you build brands or do you build platforms?" CEO Matt Sanchez told Lucia Moses. "Those two are just completely different world views. It's hard to create clarity for an organization." (Digiday) | The Onion is considering a sale. (Bloomberg News) | Arguably but not really related: Vox says it has already crushed its traffic and revenue goals for 2015. Take the next 12 months off, folks! (NetNewsCheck) | Only vaguely related but what the heck let's stay in this item: Reddit changes chief execs, and co-founder Alexis Ohanian returns as executive chairman. (NYT)
- Condé Nast settles intern lawsuit
It will pay $5.8 million. "Former interns dating back as far as June 2007 are expected to receive payments ranging from $700 to $1,900, according to the settlement." (Reuters) | "Similar lawsuits against other media and entertainment companies—including Fox Searchlight and Gawker Media—remain pending." (Gawker)
- Non-journalism typo of the week
North Carolina governor's office sends out press release trumpeting a company's plans to "fire graduates from the college's traditional degree and certificate programs." S/b "hire." (News & Observer)
- Poynter gets closer to selling unused land
The University of South Florida St. Petersburg has signed a non-binding letter of intent to purchase four acres of spare land from Poynter for $6.2 million. Should the sale go through, the money will go back into Poynter, which says it is "on pace to set a record in teaching income this year." (Poynter) | Poynter Foundation honcho Chris Martin says "physical space is not as important to us as much as our growth nationally and globally." (Tampa Bay Times)

Forget bullying, forget discrimination. You know who really got the short end of the stick? Straight guys! You probably have no idea how hard it is to live your life as a straight man. Think about it! You can't show any emotions beyond rage, you don't get to have a fashion sense and, maybe worst of all, you can't even eat ice cream!

The Northern Midlands Council held the official opening of the new Water Sensitive Urban Design Project (WSUD) for Sheepwash Creek in Perth at 11am on November 29.
The WSUD is situated on the corner of Youl Road and Edward Street.
The concept of a WSUD project was implemented by the council as a new approach the ongoing issues in managing stormwater in the area.
In 2015, investigations were undertaken after a unanimous decision was made by the Northern Midlands Council to assess the flooding occurring between Edward Street and Drummond Street caused by the Sheepwash Creek catchment.
The aim was to create a suitable stormwater treatment project that would both minimise degradation of the environment, and create a recreational space for residents to enjoy.
The WSUD project will manage stormwater, and improve amenity, and add aesthetic and recreational appeal to the area.
The WSUD project was planned and designed by Cameron Oakley of Hydrodynamica and Leon Lange of Lange Design.
NRN North's Stormwater and Catchment Officer Jesse Webster said that the project would benefit the Northern Midlands region.
"The Sheepwash Creek redevelopment is a great example of how council can improve our water quality, increase habitat and biodiversity and improve the amenity of an urban creek line which is a win-win for the community of Perth," Mr Webster said.
"Northern Midlands Council is clearly leading the way in the northern region when it comes to organised implementation of larger scale WSUD at a catchment scale and this is just phase one," he said.
Mayor of the Northern Midlands Council David Downie commended the project and the council for "leading the way with projects such as this to enable a sustainable future for our communities."
Part of the funding for the WSUD project was made available to the Northern Midlands Council through the Australian Government's National Landcare Programme Investment into the Tamar River Recovery Plan.

Concerns are growing for a 30-year-old woman who has been missing from the Stranraer area since the early hours of Tuesday.
Katie Lambert was last seen leaving her dad's house in Fairway, Stranraer, in a taxi around 2am which reportedly drove her to Bothwell Street in Glasgow. It is believed she was dropped off in the city centre at around 4.10am.
Katie, who was carrying a black suitcase with red or pink stripes, has been described as 5ft5, of slim build and with bleached blonde hair. She was wearing a grey cardigan, a white t-shirt, black trousers or leggings and black slip-on shoes.
Constable Mark Fern from Stranraer Police Office said: "It is not known why Katie decided to travel to the Glasgow area however enquiries are ongoing to establish the circumstances.
"I would appeal to anyone who recognises Katie or who has any information on her whereabouts to contact officers on 101."

Cookies For Kids Cancer
Cookies for Kids' Cancer was founded by two OXOnians, Gretchen and Larry Witt, who were inspired by their son Liam's battle with cancer. They were shocked to learn that childhood cancer is the leading cause of death by disease of kids in the US. The reason: lack of funding for new, improved, and less toxic therapies for cancers specific to children. The Witts knew they had to do something to make a difference for the more than 40,000 children in the US battling cancer each day.
For two longtime OXOnians, it only seemed natural that their call-to-action was kitchen-related. In 2007, Gretchen had an idea that sounded so crazy it just might work - to hold a larger-than-life cookie sale to help fund a promising new therapy for childhood cancer. Over the course of three weeks, Gretchen gathered over 250 volunteers (many of them fellow OXOnians) to bake and sell 96,000 cookies. The crazy idea worked, raising over $400,000 for research.
Gretchen and Larry realized they were on to something big. Nine months later, on Childhood Cancer Awareness Day in 2008, they launched Cookies for Kids' Cancer as a national non-profit organization inspiring grassroots bake sales and other events year-round. The organization inspires others to join in the fight against pediatric cancer by raising the funds for new, improved and less toxic treatments. Since then, Cookies has granted more than $7 million, funding six dozen research projects, including 26 that are now available treatments, and has inspired nearly 7,000 events in all 50 states and 16 countries.
Through the years, OXOnians have devoted their personal time, energy and money to support this worthy cause, but the company wanted to play even a larger role in the movement to find a cure for pediatric cancer. That's why, in 2011, OXO formalized its partnership with Cookies for Kids' Cancer, pledging to donate up to $100,000 per year to this very worthy cause.
Progress has been made, but we aren't there yet. You can help bake a difference and join us in the movement to find a cure for pediatric caner.
We will match proceeds from bake sales inspired by OXO, up to our $100,000 commitment. In order to be eligible for the match, you must visit Cookies for Kids' Cancer to register your bake sale and select "OXO" in the drop-down menu asked marked "How did you hear about Cookies for Kids' Cancer?"
For more information and other ways to contribute, visit www.cookiesforkidscancer.org.
*Cookies for Kids' Cancer is a recognized 501c(3) public charity duly incorporated under the laws of the state of New Jersey. Your donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowable by law. 100% of proceeds raised by Cookies for Kids' Cancer fund pediatric cancer research. This year, OXO will donate up to $100,000 to Cookies for Kids' Cancer through product proceeds, bake sale matches and other fundraising efforts

Let's paint the latest Minnesota crime news with numbers:
Eighty: That's how many prior warrants were pending in the case of Patrick Lussier, a suspect who allegedly was involved in a shooting on the Fond du Lac Reservation near Cloquet on Sunday. Carlton County Attorney Thom Pertler said Lussier, of Welch, had 80 prior warrants and bragged about being a member of the Native Mob gang. He was charged with seven counts, including second-degree assault with the deadly weapon.
Here''s a link to the story from the Northland News Center website.
Meanwhile, a morning drug raid on an Albert Lea home Tuesday prompted these numbers, according to the Albert Lea Tribune story:
43: firearms seized during the raid.
1.1: pounds of hallucinogenic mushrooms found along with,
5.1: ounces of marijuana and
4: grams of meth.
10: age of a child found sleeping in the basement when drug agents from Waseca, Faribault, Steele and Freeborn counties joined SWAT team members in the raid.

M-Class is a 2-day training event for each pilot (Thursday/Friday or Friday/Saturday) with each pilot receiving flight training on either Thursday or Saturday (morning or afternoon) and all pilots joining the ground training session from 8:30am – 5pm on Friday. For example, if a pilot requests (and is slotted for) flight training on Thursday morning (or afternoon), that pilot would arrive at the designated airfield prior to the scheduled training time for flight training, remain overnight, and attend ground training the next day (Friday). The pilots that are slotted for Saturday flight training would arrive on Friday morning for ground training and then remain overnight for the flight training session on the next day (Saturday).
Maintenance M-Class is on Friday, and training is conducted concurrently with the pilots and maintainers in separate hangars for most of the training.

Toronto: Researchers have discovered how severely damaged DNA is transported within a cell and how it is repaired - a discovery that can unlock secrets of how cancer operates.
"Scientists knew that severely injured DNA was taken to specialized 'hospitals' in the cell to be repaired, but the big mystery was how it got there," said Karim Mekhail, professor at the University of Toronto.
"We have now discovered the DNA 'ambulance' and the road it takes," he added.
Mekhail discovered this DNA "ambulance", which is a motor protein complex, by using yeast cells.
The team also found that the DNA "hospital", also known as the nuclear pore complex, repairs damaged DNA inaccurately.
This inaccurate fix is important because DNA contains the instructions for all our genetic information.
While the repaired DNA can still replicate, it has irregular cell instructions -- a scenario that could cause cancer.
"This process allows cells to survive an injury, but at a great cost. The cell has a compromised genome but it is stable and can be replicated and that is usually a recipe for disaster," Mekhail noted.
Cancer often occurs when our chromosomes break and are misrepaired.
"This work teaches us that the location of the break within the cell's nucleus has a big impact on the efficiency of repair," the authors concluded.
The research was published in the journal Nature Communications.

Centennial Software (www.centennial-software.com), a leading supplier of network discovery solutions, has announced major expansion plans for its global channel. The software vendor is launching its first formal partner program and is looking to significantly expand its reseller base across the
Recently-appointed CEO Andy Burton commented, Were investing heavily in this initiative as the recruitment and retention of the right channel partners is fundamental to our future success. With this in mind, we have developed the Centennial Partner Program and established Channel Councils in combination; these will deliver commercial, sales and marketing support, and enable partners to play an active role in the ongoing development of Centennial products and its channel strategy.
The Centennial partner program for VARs comprises three distinct levels of accreditation: Platinum, Gold and Authorized. For Platinum Partners, the partner program provides not only healthy reseller margins, but also unprecedented access to Centennial sales, marketing and technical support.
Asset management specialist, CTMS, is one of the first resellers to achieve Centennial Platinum Partner status. Mary Roy, Managing Director at CTMS, can see clear benefits of the new formalised program: Over the last seven years, we have built a close working relationship with Centennial. The creation of a formal Partner Program is a clear indication of Centennials dedication to rewarding those partners who commit to its solutions.
By creating regional Channel Councils, Centennial is ensuring that partners have a voice in the future direction of the company and that the Partner Program is shaped to provide the maximum benefits to resellers.
FAST recently launched a campaign to encourage organizations to reduce the amount of money they waste through poor management of software assets and has appointed Centennials Glenn Stephens to provide expert advice to members of the Asset Management Group.
Andy Burton continued, Glenns appointment to the FAST advisory committee reinforces our position as a market-leader and proves that network discovery and asset management are moving rapidly up the IT Directors agenda."

Interesting news comes from the recent Dengeki Books Autumn Festival; those involved in famed tsundere magical girl anime 灼眼のシャナ / Shakugan no Shana appeared on stage "hinting" at the prospect of a new season.
Seiyuu Rie Kugimiya (Shana) and Satoshi Hino (male protagonist), the original author Yashichiro Takahashi, the illustrator Noizi Ito and the producer all appeared on stage as part of the event, discussing various aspects of the show.
Leaving their onstage antics aside, they soon let slip their surprise to the gleeful audience, saying with respect to part of the original work that "this may be turned into an anime later".
For "may" you can fairly safely read "will", as nobody would permit such an announcement otherwise. They soon left the stage after this, leaving the audience with the hint firmly in mind.
Via Dengeki.
The announcement is not at all surprising, given the success of the series. However, many fans question whether the series will be able to reconcile itself with the original work, although it has to be said that such concerns probably will have no bearing on the success of the title.

Two consecutive National award winning film producer J satish Kumar who had given some unique creations such as of 'Paradesi', 'Idharkudhane Aasapattai Balakumara' Naalu Policeum Nalla Irundha Oorum', 'Kuttram Kadithal' is now back with Director Ram's upcoming movie Taramani and he is ready to travel in another success path. After Thangameenkal, the National award winning film director Ram is now ready to taste the victory by his upcoming movie Taramani: A story which revolves around the lives of young IT professionals in Chennai in which Andrea Jeremiah and debutant Vasanth Ravi plays the lead roles. The movie's teaser that was launched on May 21st is going viral on social Media and nearing five lakh viewers on YouTube within four days.
The teaser opens with the boyfriend's unending questions. "How come you have 2248 friends on Facebook? I just have 15." "A skirt? Why do you have to wear it till here, why not down there?" "How does he know your size?!" and the last question is a blackmail threat by him for which Andrea slams the phone by saying "Whether I sleep with him or not is up to me. Jump if you want!"
It must be said that these type of Ram's unique thinking had triggered the audiences' mind and go crazy for the film. This out and out love story that travels through the different dimensions of a male – female relationship is about the romance between the couples who are poles apart.

The 2014 gubernatorial campaign officially began Tuesday, with tea party favorite Tim Donnelly, a Republican assemblyman from the Inland Empire, announcing that he is running for governor.
"I want to let Jerry Brown know that … not only are we coming for him, but the people of the state of California are coming for their freedom back," Donnelly said, flanked by his wife, three of their five children and dozens of supporters at a sawdust-covered furniture factory in Baldwin Park.
"We are going to take it back in 2014!" the lawmaker said.
Donnelly cited California's rates of poverty, unemployment and taxation to argue that Brown, who has governed as a moderate, does not deserve another term.
"This epic experiment in socialism under Jerry Brown has been an epic fail," he said. "You know we need to get California working again. We need to unleash California's prosperity by getting government out of the way. We need to liberate California from oppressive taxes and regulations."

American officers scouting locations to deploy U.S. troops in Uzbekistan are focusing on the former Soviet air base at Khanabad, Uzbek military sources said Tuesday.
A U.S. advance team of several officers began studying Khanabad on Sept. 20, the sources said. They found the airstrips and hangars in need of repair and updating. Nonetheless, the sources said, the officers were satisfied that the base is able to accommodate American aircraft and personnel.
The review of Khanabad is part of a growing but still quiet operation to determine where, when and how many U.S. forces can be deployed in Uzbekistan as the United States prepares for an assault on Osama bin Laden and his terrorist organization in Afghanistan.
Uzbekistan's government says it has offered only the use of its airspace to U.S. forces. But already, hundreds of American servicemen are reported to be on the ground.
The Washington Post said the Army's 10th Mountain Division sent more than 1,000 troops Tuesday night on an unprecedented combat deployment to Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, the first time a regular Army infantry unit has been sent on a mission to a former Soviet republic.
The Post said the reinforced battalion of light infantry, based at Ft. Drum, N.Y., also represents the first major deployment of a regular Army unit--as opposed to the small, elite Special Forces units--in the campaign against terrorism.
Equipment delivered
Uzbek sources say Americans have delivered monitoring and reconnaissance equipment to the Tuzel air base on the edge of Tashkent, the Uzbek capital.
Some of that equipment, analysts believe, already has been moved to the Termez region on the Uzbek-Afghan border.
As part of a program begun months ago but stepped up since the Sept. 11 attacks, U.S. experts are training Uzbek forces how better to guard their 125-mile border with Afghanistan.
Some of the training involves basic monitoring practices. Some is expected to involve sophisticated equipment provided by the U.S. government.
Uzbekistan fears that if U.S. forces attack Afghanistan from Uzbek bases, the Taliban will retaliate against Uzbekistan.
Though Uzbekistan's border with Afghanistan is short, it is vulnerable. The Uzbek army cannot match the Taliban in experience or ability, and Uzbek air defenses are weak.
Khanabad was the main rear base for the Soviet army and home of its MiG fighter squadrons during the failed occupation of Afghanistan in the 1980s. It is deemed the largest and best-maintained of Uzbekistan's air bases and still has a few dozen MiG-29 fighters and a few SU-24s.
Khanabad is just outside the city of Karshi in southern Uzbekistan, close to the border with Turkmenistan and about 125 miles from Afghanistan.
The American specialists, according to Uzbek military sources, rated Khanabad as a better option than bases in neighboring Tajikistan or Turkmenistan.
They also prefer it over Kakydi and Tuzel, sources said. The Kakydi air base near Termez is expected to be used only in emergency cases or perhaps as a base for search and rescue teams.
Transport arrives
On Sunday an American C-130 Hercules military transport landed at Khanabad and delivered cargo believed to be either reconnaissance systems or support equipment for U.S. warplanes, the sources said.
None of this is being reported in the Uzbek media. President Islam Karimov told the nation Monday night that he had approved the use of Uzbek airspace for the U.S.-led effort against bin Laden but he said nothing about the bases.
Analysts believe the U.S.-Uzbek deal is already made. Karimov has promised the Americans use of his bases but is hesitant to tell that to an Uzbek people who fear getting caught up in a wider war in Central Asia.
"This is already decided," said Alisher Taksanov, a former researcher with Uzbekistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs who is now an independent analyst and journalist in Tashkent. "Karimov is bringing the people along slowly.
"There might be some legislation introduced to allow foreign military forces into Uzbekistan and have the parliament vote on it," Taksanov said.
"But it will come from the president. You see how our parliament makes decisions. They just raise their hands."

Today's Horse Facts
Lady: My Second or Third Horse?????
You probably won't understand what I'm about to say if you are young, but when you get "older," your memory can start to fail you. Duh! Everyone knows that. Anyway, the horse that I thought was my third horse turned out to be my second horse.
Like a dummy, I never marked the dates or the horses' names on the back of the zillions of pictures I took of all my horses. So I've been plowing through all my albums, trying to sort out which horse was who and when I owned each. But I know that the horse in this picture is Lady, who was my second horse.
How do I know? Well, the picture shows a friend riding Lady, a bay grade mare.
Next to them is my husband Richard riding Moon Doggie, my first horse. So, that proved to me that Lady was my second horse. And Ginger, whom I thought was my second horse, was really my third horse. Now, are you totally confused? And, by the way, does it really matter?
Now, here's a little bit of info about Lady, who by the way wasn't a lady in any shape or form. She was an older horse, and you can tell by looking at her ribs sticking out in the one photo (even though I fed her tons of food). By buying an older horse, I thought I was getting a gentle down-to-earth easy rider. Well, Lady was that—kind of. As long as we rode her AWAY from the barn, she was a piece of cake.
However, as soon as we turned her around to head for the barn, look out! We needed a tight rein on her, and we never could run her going home. That little gem of info we found out the hard way.
One Saturday, hubby and I went for a short ride, maybe for an hour. I rode Moon Doggie, and hubby was on Lady. On the way home, we started to lope across a farmer's field. We were probably a quarter of a mile from our barn.
All of a sudden, Lady took off full speed ahead and hubby couldn't stop her. All I could see was a brown blur and him yelling, "Whoa, whoa" and yanking on the reins as hard as he could.
Do you know what we found out?
Lady had a hard mouth. You don't want a horse with a hard mouth.
What's a hard mouth? All the nerves in her mouth had been so damaged from bits over the years, her mouth had become totally numb to any pressure or pain. When she decided to run, she was unstoppable. What she should have had on her was a hackamore. Of course, I was still learning about horses, so I didn't know that.
Unfortunately, Lady was so old, I think I finally sold her to the meat market, sad to say. But I'm not really sure of that. All I remember is that she was very old, and she was no fun to ride back to the barn. But, I will hand this to her. She taught me an awful lot about older, hard-mouthed horses. The next time I went horse buying, I made sure the horse behaved going away and back to the barn.
Happy riding!
P.S. Email me with stories and pictures of your horses.

|Raytheon's newest Standard Missile-3 intercepts medium-range ballistic missile target at highest altitude to date
"The next-generation SM-3 proved itself against a medium-range ballistic missile target at the highest altitude of any previous test. We remain on track to deliver this critical capability in time for a 2015 deployment in support of global combatant command requirements, and specifically phase two of the European Phased Adaptive Approach," said Dr.
The test was the 26th successful intercept for the SM-3 program and the fifth back-to-back successful test of the next-generation SM-3 Block IB guided missile.
"This highest intercept to date is a result of increasing the complexity of the testing scenarios, reflecting what we would see in an operational environment," said Dr.

I think in a case of self defense that violence would be very justified. Women do commit violent crimes, and they would have to be stopped with violence not reasoning. I would also use violence against a woman that was attempting to kidnap a child whether or not she was being violent herself.
The issue of weather violence against women or men is justified is useless, because it is really violence against a person in the end. If force is iniciated by a person against another, the victim or potential victim has every moral right and obligation to defend himself or herself against the attacker. Force is by its very nature against the requirements of a human being's life, force is the antithesis of reason, and therefor the antithesis of anything good or moral, so basically, violence against ANYONE is never justified, unless someone is iniciating the use of force against your faculty of reason and volition.
Though it should be very far down on your list, it is so very kindergarten to say, "You should never hit a woman." I have seen instances of a man being the abused one in a relationship. Or a mother beating (not spanking, beating) her children. Or these crazies drowning their kids in a bathtub/lake/body of water. Also, women sometimes feel the social stigma of hitting a woman is a shield to hide behind to say/do horrible things to men because they know they won't get hit. Like Daniel Tosh said, "There is a gray area." On the other hand, I pulled a gun on my next door neighbor because I heard him beating the crap out of his wife through a wall. I kept it on him until the cops showed up to deal with him. He deserved a little violence too.
Self-defense is the clearest reason to justify violence, though I would not go as far as to say there are no other cases. Such as in the defense of others. There could also be some extreme provocations where some level of violence is justified. Say a wife/gf that was using a husband money to pay for another man whom she was sleeping with would justify at least a good slap follow by a breakup.
If your life is in danger, the gender of the attacker goes out the window. That's it. So, technically yes, it can be justified in extreme cases. In virtually all it's reprehensible and disgusting behavior that is unforgivable, but at a certain point you need to be able to defend yourself. As an aggressor it is never okay.
Violence against anyone, man or woman, is never justified, unless it's self defense. Even then, it should be a very last resort and used as sparingly as possible. When defending yourself, you should use the least amount of force possible to secure your own safety, and your intent should never be to kill the other person.
Violence against women is never justified, but neither is violence against anyone else including men as well. People often see it as the woman wants to be treated as an equal to the men, but men are not supposed to be going around hitting on another either, so they should not be hitting the women too. Just like women should not hit each other, or hit men.
Wearing provoking clothing accompanied with lewd gestures are some of the very common features found in most of the city girls today.If they are not paying minimum respect to our culture,how can they expect acceptability of their self imposed norms?Deviation from regular systems automatically attracts controversies and protests.So,there is a growing generalization of women community in society.Girls are thus watched in a common genre.In result to that today the majority goes through everyday harrasment thoughout the city and also mostly in the suburn areas
It is true that in a self-defense situation, people may be forced into becoming violent against a woman. However, I feel this topic is not asking about violence that arises out of necessity, rather it is inquiring about domestic violence and other forms of violence against women. With that in mind, I do not think there is any way that anyone whose ideas come from this century could argue that violence against women is ever justified.

one of my closest friends, synjin mrkvicka, is an art+art history major here at uw madison. she's one of the most informed and passionate art historian chicks i know and has decided to take her interests to the next level by starting "untitled" self, a blog that interviews young artists. i am honored to have been her first subject.
please read here [and continue to do so].

i've been making headway on "mission make shirts i already own more interesting." just have a few more stitches to do by hand and then i'll be ready to hit the sewing machine.
other things i'm so into right now:
1. collaging. this is part of that triptych i partially leaked earlier. the full package will be premiering soon, just you wait!
2. chanel... in denim. after finding this vintage chanel for sale at shopbop, the holy grail of purses has just become even more epic, in my book. this bag makes such a statement that i'm completely speechless.
3. ebay. i'm selling a few clothing items that i haven't worn for a while [or at all, for that matter]. check them out here.

if you ever find yourself in the situation where your glasses have gone missing [ie: in either a florida or a new york airport/airplane], and you are in need of a new pair, use it as an opportunity to purchase a new, flattering accessory.
i found these awesome ray bans at a local optometrist office. their slight cat-eye shape and highlight along the top+inner rim make them especially unique.
call me "four eyes" all you want; i'm still going to rock these new specs daily.

2. make this from something i already own, scraps of 1, and

3. hit up a few inexpensive stores to recreate this:
oh the agenda of a blogger...
a rag and bone jean jacket, that is. i've had my eye on this
sucker for quite some time and almost purchased it in new york
after that award-winning bloody mary. it is one of the most
beautifully tailored denim jackets i've ever slipped into, and am
still considering treating myself...
...on that note, who needs art?
Friday, April 20, 2012
this week i had the incredible opportunity to interview [via e
mail] the queen of the cut out dress, ms. donna mizani. i am a
huge fan of her designs [i wore one of her signature dresses for
my twenty-first], and now i am a huge fan of her personality!
donna is confident, focused, and sweet. take a look:
alexandra: tell me about yourself: how old are you? where are you
originally from? what is your educational background? where do
you live now?
donna: i'm 26 years old, and i currently live in la. i grew up on
the east coast and moved out here in 2004, right after high
school, to attend FIDM. my major was fashion design. i am bi
coastal and spend a lot of my time back and fourth to and from ny
and la.
alexandra: when did you decide/realize you wanted to become a
fashion designer?
donna: it was never really deciding, it was more of being born to
want this. before i was even capable of dressing myself, my mom
would catch me sneaking into her closet putting on her heels,
dresses and admiring her fashion taste. so, as i got older
clothing was always the only way that i was capable of expressing
myself, so why not make a career out of it?
alexandra: how long does it generally take to design a clothing
item? what about an entire line?
donna: when it comes down to designing a new season, i usually
lock myself in my office for days at a time. i blast music and i
just get into the zone. it won't end until i am fully satisfied
with what i have come up with. i'm constantly inspired, designing
and coming up with new styles everyday. sometimes i can come up
with multiple styles in one day.
donna: too many good ones out there to call one my favorite...
definitely anyone who falls in the risk-taker category. fashion
is all about taking risks and having confidence. creativity helps
too :)
donna: a lot of art definitely influences me. whether it's a
painting or photography. anything that can catch my eye and
inspire me is definitely a big influence.
alexandra: how would you define your personal style?
donna: depending on where i'm going, my personal style would be
defined as cool and casual with a splash of edge... i love
dressing up, and love dressing down.
day to day i'm wearing loose fitted harem pants, leggings, or
jean shorts with a light weight drape-y burnout t and some type
of fitted jacket/blazer. i'm obsessed with button down shirts!! i
think i own a button down shirt in every color. i also love
dressing up; obviously i am known for my dresses! my go-to going
out look will always be a little black dress designed by yours
alexandra: how would you define the style your line exemplifies?
donna: the style that my line exemplifies would be sophisticated
yet sexy mixed with a flirty sensibility. i'm definitely known
for putting the cut out dress on the map, but what i think is so
great about my line is that it offers so much more and caters to
so many different types of women with different kinds of style.
alexandra: three words that describe you as a designer:
donna: risk-taker, confident, ambitious

thank you, donna for your time and your artistic contributions to
this world. keep doin' what you do!

here are some snippets of a triptych i am currently working on.
once again, being able to express myself through art is such a
what's also a relief is that, after video chatting with my
awesome ta, jennifer, i now know that i can write my last essay
in college about african art. i never thought i'd be so excited
to write a paper.
off topic but, you can purchase a pair of earrings i neon'd here.
the thought of espresso blend with vanilla soy-milk was
surprisingly not enough motivation to get me out of bed on this
rainy day. six lipstick options, on the other hand, were.
pairing with literally any lip color--from light pink to deep
purple and everything in between. decisions, decisions...
1. nars, turkish delight
2. covergirl, temptress charmeuse
3. lancome, posh pink [matte]
4. revlon, kiss me coral
5. n.y.c., retro red
6. revlon, grape [courtesy of maya zinn]
|option 6=success
this is what i carried my lunch in today:
and this is what i wish i carried my lunch in everyday:
thank you, cast of vices, for being exceptionally witty with your
designs. and thank you to whoever feels generous enough to buy
me one of these bags.
Wednesday, April 18, 2012
after analyzing my life, my artistic style, and my relationship
with my art, i decided that i wanted to create a surface i can
interact with directly. seeing a distorted version of myself
while my painting stares back at me is such a wonderful
experience... i can't wait to share this with other viewers.
on a less serious note, this video teaser is giving me bieber
fever. [judge me, i don't care].
Tuesday, April 17, 2012
|seven hour work day... no complaints
art is the only constant in my life. our romance is eternal. i
love you, art, and i can't wait to finish you, painting.

cara and i took a trip to the historical society this morning,
not to study, but to get some great indoor lighting. the ceiling

I thought of this story after just receiving a reference from the TX D.A.R.E. Officers Association. I posted the note to my Facebook just to clear my mind of the experience my son and I had together on the tail end of a roadtrip to the Kansas City area. My mom didn't enjoy hearing how it played out, but the best part is I had a new story to share from stage and my son got a pic for his Facebook. By the way, we didnt' get shot.

Non-Dilutive Financing Substantially Strengthens Balance Sheet Ahead of Data From Phase III HEAT Study
Non-Dilutive Financing Substantially Strengthens Balance Sheet Ahead of Data From Phase III HEAT Study
LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ--(Marketwire - Jun 28, 2012) - Celsion Corporation (NASDAQ: CLSN), a leading oncology drug development company, today announced that it has entered into a $10 million tranched loan facility with Oxford Finance LLC and Horizon Technology Finance Corporation (NASDAQ: HRZN). Under the terms of the loan agreement, Celsion received $5 million upon closing, with the remaining $5 million available for draw following positive data from the Company's pivotal, Phase III HEAT Study. This study is a multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of ThermoDox®, in combination with radiofrequency ablation (RFA), for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), also known as primary liver cancer. A total of 380 events of progression are required to reach the planned final analysis of the study, which are projected to occur in late 2012. Celsion expects that the funds will further ensure a strong balance sheet following the announcement of the HEAT Study results, and adds to its ability to conduct pre-commercialization activities and preparation activities related to a New Drug Application (NDA) for ThermoDox®.
"This facility provides added financial strength to our balance sheet, with each $5 million tranche extending our Company's operating horizon by an additional quarter at current spending levels," said Gregory Weaver, Celsion's Chief Financial Officer. "Our current cash position, $24.6 million as of March 31, 2012, is expected to provide sufficient cash to fund operations into the third quarter of 2013. This loan, in addition to our cash reserves and investments, should provide us with the financial flexibility to meet a number of key, value-driving objectives, in addition to providing leverage in evaluating global strategic partners for ThermoDox®. We appreciate the support of our lender group and their confidence in ThermoDox®, the HEAT Study and Celsion."
The loan facility was led by Oxford Finance LLC and partnered with Horizon Technology Finance Corporation. Christopher A. Herr, Managing Director at Oxford Finance, said: "We are pleased to have led this $10 million loan facility to support the execution of Celsion's HEAT Study. Through our diligence process, we have gained great confidence in the trial's rigorous design and execution."
The initial $5 million tranche is structured to have an interest-only period through March 31, 2013. The second $5 million tranche is structured to have an interest-only period for the three months following the date of funding. Both tranches will be followed by a 30-month amortization period. In conjunction with the loan, Celsion granted the lenders warrants to purchase an aggregate of 51,370 shares at an exercise price of $2.92, or 3% of the funded loan amount. Warrants of equivalent value will be due if the second tranche is drawn.
About ThermoDox®
ThermoDox® is a proprietary heat-activated liposomal encapsulation of doxorubicin, an approved and frequently used oncology drug for the treatment of a wide range of cancers. In the Company's Phase III HEAT Study and Phase II ABLATE Study, ThermoDox® is administered intravenously in combination with Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA). Localized mild hyperthermia (39.5 - 42 degrees Celsius) created by the RFA releases the entrapped doxorubicin from the liposome. This delivery technology enables high concentrations of doxorubicin to be deposited preferentially in a targeted tumor.
The Company's Phase III HEAT Study, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of ThermoDox® in combination with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), also known as primary liver cancer, is being conducted at 79 clinical sites under an FDA Special Protocol Assessment. The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of ThermoDox® in combination with RFA when compared to patients who receive RFA alone as the control. The primary endpoint for the study is progression-free survival. The Company's Phase II ABLATE Study is being conducted at four clinical sites in the U.S. and is a randomized, blinded clinical trial of ThermoDox® in combination with RFA for the treatment of colorectal liver metastases with a PFS endpoint. Additional information on the Company's ThermoDox® clinical studies may be found at www.clinicaltrials.gov.

If the phones in your office stopped working, would your company still be able to function? What about faxes and postal mail? Chances are your business processes would be delayed to a certain degree if these services were down, but your daily business functions would not come to a grinding halt.
If I ask the same question about Internet and email service, I think most folks would agree: If your company's messaging system goes down and employees cannot communicate, either internally with colleagues or externally with clients and prospects, then they might as well just go home -- and update their résumés.
[ Learn more about the lineup of System Center tools by reading J. Peter Bruzzese's "System Center is more than just a buzzword." | Keep up to date on Windows PC and server issues in InfoWorld's Technology: Windows newsletter. ]
In the past 15 years, the business community has seen a steady shift in the way organizations communicate and, thus, function. Phones, faxes, and letters are all important, but they are no longer integral when it comes to keeping your business in business.
It's obvious that Microsoft Exchange is mission-critical; no one would disagree with that. Most would also agree that in our economy, administrators are being asked to do more with less -- so the key is to be proactive about monitoring. Be ready for a problem before or at the moment it hits, and make sure even your lower-level admins or help desk can see the problem even if they aren't authorized to handle it directly.
Microsoft SCOM: A capable tool that's too hard to use
The key to keeping your business in business is to have a solid monitoring solution in play. As a Microsoft loyalist, my instinct is to lead people to System Center Operations Manager, or SCOM, formerly known as the catchier MOM. Despite my negative experiences with Microsoft's System Center tools in general (don't get me started on my Data Protection Manager nightmare), I look at SCOM somewhat favorably because of my positive experiences getting MOM up and running in the past. SCOM is a robust monitoring solution, and you can implement management packs for your various servers (like Exchange) to give you more reach and a more watchful eye over your Exchange environment.

Jews are "wicked," "oppressors," and "evil" in rebroadcast of 1996 PA TV show
Official PA TV program "Culture Talks", hosting actor Sami Sattoum, rebroadcast of a scene from the TV series "And You, Jerusalem" from 1996, in which Sami Sattoum plays a Jew. Tis program was broadcast on Sept. 28, 2017 and rebroadcast on Sept. 30, 2017.
Jew: "They say the Arabs are generous. Maybe you would invite us in for a cup of coffee in your house?"
Arab: "What? Please."
Jew, played by actor Sami Sattoum: "You have a nice house, Abu Awni, It's built in an old style."
Arab: "This house was built by my grandfather's grandfather more than 200 years ago."
Jew: "Does that make sense, Abu Awni? Your grandfather's grandfather built it over 200 years ago and it is still standing firm?"
Arab: "Why doesn't that make sense? Even my grandfather's grandfather inherited the land from his fathers. I mean the land of the house."
Jew: "Okay, can we look at the house, Abu Awni?"
Arab: "Look?"
Jew: "We'll just look Abu Awni, we'll look at the house..."
Song lyrics:
"Here is the oppressor, here they went and returned, here they walked around;
Here he walks around, he walked around the whole world,
and his eye is still on you, O house.
Come on [Palestinians], be strong! Protest! Let the land burn;
The fire will ignite and the wind will strengthen and burn the wicked.
Here is the oppressor. Here is the oppressor..."
Jew: "It is truly a beautiful house, Abu Awni!"
2017 Interview with actor who played "a Jew" in the previous scene, Sami Sattoum
TV host: "Psychologically, why are you usually chosen to play evil roles?" [...]
Actor Sami Sattoum, who played "a Jew": "Evil roles are always more difficult than the roles of good characters... The directors say about my eyes, that I act well with them, and that 'evil comes out of them,' as they say."

"A practical guide to picking yourself up, restoring your health and well-being, and getting the motivation and confidence to move forward with your life.—Susan Nolen-Hoeksema, PhD, author of the best-selling Women Who Think Too Much
Losing your job may be the most difficult thing you'll experience. Your mental health and physical well-being can suffer, leaving you feeling anxious, helpless, and alone. Dr. Robert L. Leahy has worked with many unemployed people over the years, and his successful techniques draw upon Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), as well as practices, such as mindfulness, to help you boost your self-esteem and confidence, decrease anxiety and feelings of helplessness, and develop resilience and strength. By keeping your head and learning how to deal with this time well, you can also learn how to live your life more effectively once you get a job.
Unemployment is a time for new priorities and new meanings. This book will help you discover inner strengths and give you the skills to cope with life, whatever it may throw at you.
Robert L. Leahy is the director of the American Institute for Cognitive Therapy. He has received the Aaron T. Beck Award for outstanding contributions in cognitive therapy, and is the author and editor of over twenty-one books, including The Worry Cure.

Testosterone is a powerful hormone, with the ability to control sex drive, regulate sperm production, promote muscle mass, increase energy, and even influence human behavior (such as aggression and competitiveness). It's no wonder that a decrease in testosterone would cause quite a stir. However, it is a natural part of aging.
Testosterone plays an important role in shaping the developing fetus during pregnancy. It drives the development of the male reproductive system. Testosterone also masculinizes the brain.
However, testosterone levels have to fall within a very narrow margin in order for the fetal brain to be healthy. High levels of fetal testosterone may be linked to autism. Other research has found that low levels of fetal testosterone may boost your chances of getting Alzheimer's disease later in life.
Testosterone levels are at their highest during adolescence and early adulthood. The first physical signs of testosterone, or androgens, in the body are apparent during puberty. A boy's voice changes, his shoulders broaden, and his facial structure becomes more masculine. But as men get older, their testosterone levels decline about 1 percent per year after age 30.
This chart breaks down the normal ranges of testosterone by age and gender, according to the Mayo Clinic:
|T Level (ng/dL):
|T Level (ng/dL):
|0-5 mo.
|0-5 mo.
|6 mos.-9 yrs.
|< 7-20

|-1% per year
Testosterone is often thought of as the "fountain of youth" hormone. But naturally declining testosterone levels don't cause signs and symptoms of aging, according to the Mayo Clinic.
However, low testosterone levels can cause changes in sexual function, including:
- reduced sexual desire, or low libido
- fewer spontaneous erections
- impotence (erectile dysfunction)
- infertility
Other signs of decreased testosterone levels include:
- changes in sleep patterns
- emotional changes, such as low self-confidence or lack of motivation
- physical changes, like increased body fat, reduced muscle bulk and strength, and decreased bone density
The normal range of testosterone levels in healthy adult males is between 280 to 1,100 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL), reports the University of Rochester Medical Center. It's important to determine if a low testosterone level is due to normal aging or if it's due to a disorder.
Testosterone levels affect women as well. However, women create lower levels and are more sensitive to androgens than men. Testosterone levels in women vary. According to the University of Rochester Medical Center, normal measurements range from 15 to 70 ng/dL.
A woman's estrogen levels drop after she enters menopause. This makes her androgen levels comparatively higher. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) can also raise testosterone levels.
Excess androgens in a woman's blood stream can cause obvious physical effects, including:
Testosterone deficiency, on the other hand, can cause fertility problems, weak bones, and loss of libido.
While the symptoms described here are considered a normal part of aging, they could also be signs of several underlying factors. These include:
- a reaction to certain medications
- thyroid gland disorders
- depression
- excessive alcohol use
According to Mayo Clinic, the best way to diagnose low testosterone is to visit your doctor for a blood test. The University of Rochester Medical Center suggests that the best time of day to have a blood sample taken for a testosterone test is around 8 a.m. Results outside of the normal range could be caused by conditions like:
- cancer of the ovaries or testes
- failure of the testicles
- early or delayed puberty
- chronic illness (such as diabetes or kidney disease)
- severe obesity
- hypogonadism (sex glands produce little or no hormones)
It's natural to be concerned about lower levels of testosterone. However, a gradual decrease is a normal part of aging. Talk to your doctor if you're worried that there could a different cause.

At nearly 90 years old, an age when most people are sitting around waiting for the Grim Reaper, envelope-pushing, modern-dance pioneer Anna Halprin is still mentally and physically spry.
Proof is offered in the brisk documentary "Breath Made Visible," directed by one of her former students, Ruedi Gerber.
The cinematic portrait includes interviews with her two daughters (one, Daria, starred in Antonioni's 1969 cult classic "Zabriskie Point"), who tell of growing up among their mom's hippie friends; dance contemporaries such as the late Merce Cunningham; assorted friends, collaborators and students; and, of course, Halprin herself.
She says that "dance is what you see, what you smell and what you hear," and credits her art with helping her beat cancer in the 1970s.
The main attraction is little-seen archival footage going back 50 years, including scenes from the 1960s "Parades and Changes," with artful nudity that was praised in Europe but brought threats of arrest in New York.

UBS Global Asset Management today announced the launch of its new UBS Fixed Income Opportunities Fund, an opportunistic fixed income strategy that seeks returns with low correlation to traditional equity and fixed income markets. The Fund seeks to outperform 3-month LIBOR by 3%, net of fund ordinary operating expenses, over rolling five-year time horizons.
Three employees of UBS AG have been fined a total of HK$1.8 million for negligence in handling a client's trade orders in February 2008.
The SFC said the client, who faced margin calls with UBS from UBS, decided to transfer part of his portfolio at UBS to another account at Morgan Stanley to ease his margin position with UBS. Instead, the three UBS employees executed a series of on-exchange matched sales and purchases with the client's account executive and her assistants at Morgan Stanley.
UBS said it would buy Brazilian brokerage Link Investimentos for $112 million. The purchase will serve to expand UBS's wealth and asset management businesses in the region.
UBS will add 15-20 wealth-management relationship managers in Taiwan in 2010 to increase its business on the island. The company's wealth management operation in Taiwan currently has 210 staff. Taiwan was one of the few profitable private wealth management markets in Asia for UBS in 2009.
Oswald Grübel comes for Marcel Rohner as new CEO

UBS announced it might cut as many as 4500 jobs in the next few weeks.
UBS will have to pay 5000,000 euros for alleged market rigging during Parmalat's 2003 collapse.
On August 12, UBS announced its results for the second quarter of 2008, which included a net loss of $331 million on write downs of $5.1 billion. On the same day, UBS anounced that it would buy back $18.6 billion of auction-rate securities from its clients in response to governmental investigations. Also, UBS disclosed plans to separate its wealth management business from its investment banking and asset management segments.
Massachusetts securities regulators filed a civil suit against UBS for its role in the collapse of the credit markets. The charges claim that UBS's investment bank and brokerage divisions misstated the risk of investing in certain securities and actively tried to hide the falling values from investors.
The Swiss central bank demanded that investment banks UBS and Credit Suisse maintain higher capital stocks. Given the ongoing credit crunch, the central bank believes that current capital requirements are too low to ensure that the firms can continue operations as normal. UBS and Credit Suisse are a huge part of the Swiss economy, so ensuring their viability is of interest to the government as well.
After a damaging case involving a UBS banker helping U.S. clients to avoid taxes emerged, U.S. authorities began investigating other UBS clients. Feeling pressure from both U.S. authorities and E.U. officials, UBS may divulge privacy information on 20,000 of its American clients.
The Bear Stearns fire sale to JPMorgan rattles investors in UBS, the bank with, at that point, the largest cumulative writedown due to subprime mortgages. The crucial question is whether UBS could be brought down by a similar run on the bank.
UBS's lost almost twice as much money as the median loss expected by analysts, largely because writedowns on US mortgage backed securities rose to $14 billion.
Following write-downs of over $3bn in its third-quarter earnings release, UBS announced on December 10, 2007, that it would take another $10bn write-down for the fourth quarter. The firm also announced that it would issue $11.5bn in new equities to sell to investors from Singapore and the Middle East in an attempt to shore up capital.
