No consent in instructor/trainee relationships
There are apparently some legal distinctions between consensual and coerced sex when it comes to military instructors and their trainees.
These distinctions are lost on me.
A story.
Julie, a Texan, joined the Army right out of high school. She left the Army in 2004 after serving three years, including a stint in Kuwait. I'm not using Julie's real name because she is now a Defense Department civilian employee.
After boot camp, in training for her job specialty, she and an instructor engaged in what began as flirtation and migrated to a full-blown relationship. Julie is a lesbian, and this was long before the repeal of don't ask, don't tell. This explains the secrecy of the relationship, but the sexual orientation of the two partners is not what matters here.
It was "mutual," she said. Consensual, in other words.
But it happened this way. "One day she gave me her number, and I felt so special," Julie said.
This bespeaks a balance of power and influence that will always render such relationships improper. And this will be true whether the trainee is the pursuer or the pursued. Julie knew of women who were pursuers.
But can consent even be possible in these settings? It's hard to make the case.
A story last Sunday in the San Antonio Express-News by Karisa King and Sig Christenson explained a bit of the dynamics at work at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland in cases that are part of a burgeoning sex scandal. According to accounts under oath, two recruits were requested to meet their basic training instructors in a store room. One couple had intercourse. The other couple engaged in another sexual act.
There was no physical force, no physical resistance, no screams, no immediate reporting to authorities. And, still, this was not consensual. Not OK. One victim said she felt she had no choice.
That balance of power, you see. Of the 31 cases at Lackland, only one woman came forward on her own to report the incident.
Julie, with the benefit of time, distance and maturity, said she can see impropriety when one of the partners is in a "power/authority position."
Right. Even if this isn't precisely clear to the people involved at the time.
Another story: In Navy boot camp in the '70s, my company commander (the drill instructor), told us his birthday was approaching. Tradition, he said, dictated that his sailors give money as a birthday gift. And the company yeoman — me — would be tasked with collecting this.
I didn't even think to question. Much later, I wondered whether he had a "birthday" with every new unit. But, even if it was his birthday, who was going to say, no? Few if any did.
This in no way equates to sexual assault, but note a similar backdrop: a culture of unquestioning obedience and, not infrequently, fear.
The military is about as much of an absolute, closed institution as possible. Authority speaks with something akin to absolute authority.
Even now, with the benefit of time, distance and maturity, I couldn't tell you with certainty if refusal or disclosure would have resulted in punishment for my company commander or me. Or both. The same doubts — except heightened — exist when sexual abuse is involved.
The military, faced with reports of sexual assaults not just in San Antonio but even near combat zones, is trying to change this culture of silence and how cases are reported. And it's not moving boldly or fast enough.
But consent in the context of these military trainer-trainee relationships? There can be none.

BRISTOL — The AIDS epidemic in Africa is hitting the country of Zambia especially hard. One in six adults in the country has HIV. About 630,000 children have been orphaned by the disease.
Two Bristol residents, Darla Senecal and Nancy Luke, are creating a local chapter of the organization of the organization Mothers Without Borders, which is trying to offer relief to those orphans.
The local chapter's first project is collecting "Newborn Kits" for families in Zambia. These kits include six cloth diapers, one layette gown, one bar of soap, four diaper pins, three small plastic pants, one pair of baby socks, one receiving blanket, and one hat for a newborn.

MIDDLEBURY — The union representing Addison Central Supervisory Union teachers has asked an Addison County Superior Court judge to compel ACSU Superintendent Lee Sease to turn over information that the superintendent insists he doesn't have.
At issue is an ACSU-commissioned report, prepared by Bristol-based Barash Mediation Services, intended to recommend ways of promoting a more "civil and respectful" environment within district schools.
The Middlebury Union High School Teachers' Association (MUHSTA) has seen the report, which addresses the district broadly, but wants a look at follow up reports created by Barash for some individual schools.
MONTPELIER — The Vermont House and Senate have asked the Agency of Agriculture to study the impact of milk hauling and stop charges on Vermont dairy farmers, and determine whether those expenses could be reasonably shifted to manufacturers and/or consumers.
As it stands, farmers pay the costs for haulers to stop and collect their milk. They are also assessed a fee to have that milk hauled to processing facilities. The fees are deducted from the farmers' milk checks.
For many farmers, these hauling and stop charges are not insignificant. Sen. Harold Giard, D-Bridport, a former dairy farmer, said he paid upward of $20,000 per year to have his milk hauled to processing facilities in Massachusetts. Giard said he has a cousin in Bridport who milks 90 cows and paid $21,000 in charges last year. He heard recently from a farmer in the Northeast Kingdom who milks 30 cows and pays $4,800 annually in charges.

Gambling involves risking something of value, in the hopes of gaining something of greater worth. Customarily, this involves making financial wagers on games or activities that rely heavily on chance. Gambling addiction describes an impaired ability to resist the impulse to gamble despite the harmful consequences of participation. These harmful consequences may include: 1) risky, dangerous, or unhealthy behaviors (e.g., borrowing money from unconventional sources); 2) damage to relationships, 3) financial consequences; 4) legal consequences, or 5) a failure to fulfill important life roles such as employee, student, spouse, parent, friend, etc.
Gambling includes a broad range of activities. Horseracing, lottery tickets, gambling casinos, and online card games are just a few of the most common forms of gambling. For many people, gambling can be a fun and pleasurable form of entertainment. Like all addictions, gambling addiction begins in this rat...More

SUI: How to Make Moving Averages and Technical Analysis Work in Sun Communities Inc
Sun Communities Inc (NYSE:SUI) : SUI: How to Make Moving Averages and Technical Analysis Work
Date Published: 2018-11-7
DisclaimerThe results here are provided for general informational purposes, as a convenience to the readers. The materials are not a substitute for obtaining professional advice from a qualified person, firm or corporation.
LEDEThere comes a point, after all the charts that are shared on CNBC and social media, when we simply must examine, in truth, whteher technical trading has actually worked in the past, and if so, which signal, how is it generated, and what are the historical results -- explicitly?
We are looking for answers that are empirical and explicit, not just lines on a chart, not one example that looks good.
ANSWERS: Sun Communities Inc (NYSE:SUI) CML Mammoth Technical Trigger
The idea behind all of this, and all technical analysis, is that past price behavior and key levels are watched by so many people, that patterns can repeat, and if those patterns can be identified ahead of time, they can create higher probability trades than those entered without them.
The breakout from the CML Mammoth attempts to find these bursts -- based on tens of thousands of historical trades and machine learning.
The goal, of course, is to find these breakouts before they occur and to scan the market for the best historical performers.
Rules* Open the long 70 delta call (in the money call) on the day the CML Mammoth has been triggered and coincides with upside momentum of at least a 1% up move.
* Close the call at expiration.
* Use the options closest to 15 days from expiration.
* Always avoid earnings -- irrespective of the trigger and momentum, this back-test closes 2 trading days before a scheduled earnings date.
This is a straight down the middle bullish bet -- this trade wins if the stock rises and will lose if the stock does not.
Owning the 70 delta call in Sun Communities Inc (NYSE:SUI) over the last four-years but only after a CML Mammoth was triggered had produced these back-tested returns:
Long 70 Delta Call
Signal: CML Mammoth
|% Wins:
|Wins: 6
|Losses: 4
|% Return:
Check it out Yourself: Tap Here to See the Back-test
The mechanics of these back-tests and everything in the TradeMachine® are such that it uses end of day (EOD) prices for every trigger, both entry and exit.
We see a 81% back-test return, which is based on 10 trades in Sun Communities Inc. A bullish signal triggered from the CML Mammoth doesn't necessarily happen often, but it is designed to objectively pinpoint the beginning of a short-term period, using moving averages, momentum, and volatility oscillators, when a stock is likely to move higher.
It's a model based on several indicators rolled into one signal and is based on probabilities, not absolutes, so it won't work all the time. The full details, including not only the empircal modeling but also the full closed form equation, and live scans for breakouts, are all available to CML Trade Machine members.
Looking at AveragesThe overall return was 81%; but the trade statistics tell us more with average trade results:
➡ The average return per trade was 1.05%.
➡ The average return per winning trade was 43.08%.
➡ The average return per losing trade was -61.98%.
Looking at the Last YearAbove, we eamined a back-test that spanned several years, but we can also look at the most recent year, using the same model and rules:
Long 70 Delta Call
Signal: CML Mammoth
|% Wins:
|Wins: 3
|Losses: 1
|% Return:
Tap Here to See the Back-test
Over the last year we see a 65.9% return and a 75% win-rate.
➡ The average return for the last 1-year per trade was 35.97%.
➡ The average return over the last year per winning trade was 50.78%.
➡ The average return over the last year per losing trade was -8.47%.
Technical Details
For the details about the CML Mammoth model, what is included in it (exactly), how it works, and when it's triggered, using Trade Machine you can learn about scientific technical trading from the link (which leads to a short video).
WHAT HAPPENEDThis is one way people profit from the option market -- whether it's technical analysis, momentum trading or non-directional option trading. Take a reasonable idea or hypothesis, test it, and apply lessons learned.
Please note that the executions and other statistics in this article are hypothetical, and do not reflect the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity and slippage.

Barn dances return to Hayden on Saturday
If you go
Community barn dances
8 to 11 p.m. Saturday, June 15, July 20, Aug. 10 and Sept. 28. Basic dance instruction at 7:30 p.m. $5
High school barn dances
8 p.m. to midnight May 24, June 21, July 26 and Aug. 23. $2.
Steamboat Springs — Saturday night marks the beginning of the fourth season of barn dances at the Hayden Granary.
"We started it as really getting friends and neighbors together in a fun place, and it's really been fun," said Tammie Delaney, who owns the historic grain elevator with her husband, Patrick.
The first of five barn dances this summer kicks off at 8 p.m. Saturday and will go until 11 p.m. Future community dances are June 15, July 20, Aug. 10 and Sept. 28.
Those who want some basic dance instruction can attend at 7:30 p.m.
Rodney McGowen, who is nicknamed the "voice of Hayden" because he announces events including high school football games, will be the DJ.
There is a suggested donation of $5, which helps cover the cost of the DJ. Delaney said they also are trying to raise money to install heaters in the warehouse so they can hold dances in the winter.
Delaney said the dances are family friendly and attract people of all ages. Locals and visitors attend the dances, which have ranged in size from about 30 to 130 people. A large crowd is anticipated Saturday because Hayden High School's graduation is Sunday, and guests are expected to be in town.
Regardless of the size of the crowd, Delaney said it is always a good time, and serious dancers appreciate the venue. Musicians also have commented that the rustic wood structure in the warehouse makes for great acoustics.
Any volunteers interested in helping get the venue ready are encouraged to come at 3 p.m.
New this summer, the Hayden Granary is hosting a series of four dances just for high school students. Grand Futures Prevention Coalition is helping sponsor the dances. The first one will be May 24.
The cost for the high school dances is $2 and a high school ID must be presented. Music starts at 8 p.m. and ends at midnight.
The high school dances are on May 24, June 21, July 26 and Aug. 23.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday warned that if the West takes the same flawed approach as it did with North Korean in dealing with Iran's defiant nuclear program, then the Islamic Republic will, like North Korea, invariably manage to attain atomic weapons.
The warning comes less than a week after officials with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) once again failed to reach a deal with Iran that would allow them to inspect suspect nuclear facilities. This game of cat and mouse has been going on for over a decade, and is the same kind of failed diplomatic effort that allowed North Korea to go nuclear nearly unmolested.
The only viable approach to deterring Iran, Netanyahu told a meeting of the Jewish Agency's Board of Governors, is to couple sanctions with "a robust, credible military threat."
The one country that could realistically make such a threat, the United States, appears to be going in the opposite direction. US President Barack Obama just appointed to the positions of Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense two men who have been outspoken in their opposition to using military force against Iran.
Netanyahu said that when Obama visits Israel next month, he will look to remind the American leader that "Iran does not conceal its desire to destroy the Jewish state and threaten the rest of the world."

Decision : CONF 203 VIII.A.1
Inscription: New Zealand Sub-Antarctic Islands (New Zealand)
Property: New Zealand Sub-Antarctic Islands
Id. N°: 877
State Party: New Zealand
Criteria: N (ii)(iv)
The site consists of five island groups (the Snares, Bounty Islands, Antipodes Islands, Auckland Islands, and Campbell Island) in the Southern Ocean south-east of New Zealand. The islands, lying between the Antarctic and Sub-tropical Convergences, and the seas have a high level of productivity, bio-diversity, wildlife population densities, and endemism among birds, plants and invertebrates. The bird and plant life, especially endemic albatrosses, cormorants, land birds and "megaherbs" are unique to these islands and are clearly of outstanding universal value under criterion (iv). Under criterion (ii) the islands display a pattern of immigration of species, diversification and emergent endemism. Several evolutionary processes such as the development of loss of flight in both birds and invertebrates offer particularly good opportunities for research into the dynamics of island ecology. Human impacts are confined to the effects of introduced species at Auckland and Campbell islands but their ongoing eradication is leading to a recovery of native vegetation allowing evolutionary processes to continue.
The Committee inscribed this property under criteria (ii) and (iv). The Committee noted the Bureau's comments, which commended the State Party for submitting a model nomination but at the same time expressed its concern over the integrity of the marine area and the conservation of the marine resources. The need for co-operation with the Secretariat of the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) in elaborating strategies for strengthening the protection of the marine environment (especially regarding fishery by-catch) was noted. The Committee recalled that at its twenty-first session it had encouraged the Australian authorities to consider for the future a re-nomination of Macquarie Island with the Sub-Antarctic Islands of New Zealand as one single Sub-Antarctic site. It invited both States Parties to continue to liaise on this possibility.
The Delegate of Australia underlined the willingness of her Government to co-operate with New Zealand in considering a single site. The Observer of New Zealand informed the Committee that the responsible Minister would meet his Australian counterpart the following week and would discuss this issue, and that New Zealand is in contact with the Secretariat of CCAMLR. His Government participated in the seventeenth CCAMLR meeting in Hobart, which discussed prohibition of daylight fishing and alternative mitigation measures for the Antarctic waters.

"Oh Yeah, Baby, Work It, Work That Thing, Bitch" cry American bloggers
Wired Magazine,
30th December 2006
Webmasters of leading pornographic sites were in uproar today as traffic dropped to record lows following the execution of Iraqi tyrant Saddam Hussein.
"It's a disgrace," said one leading pornographer, who declined to be named. "How's an honest man supposed to earn a living when our punters keep being distracted by the quasi- judicial hanging of Middle-Eastern mass-murderering despots?"
Prominent American bloggers were unrepentant, however, splattering their posts with onanistic superlatives and orgasmic hyperbole.
"Oh God, Oh God, CNN reports a witness described "fear on his face.", panted blogger and journalist Jules Crittenden. "Yes, yes, I've filled my shot brass and raised it... Oh Jesus, don't be shy about raising a glass yourself. The world is a better place rid of this filthy murderer. This filthy, dirty, nasty little murdering strumpet..."
Panic spread amongst purveyors of online erotica as it became apparent that Saddamasturbation was not a passing fad, but was likely to continue well into the New Year.
"The punters are so busy beating their political opponents with the cold, floppy phallus of the dead dictator that they won't be back flogging themselves over our products for weeks", said one webmaster.
"I've got a wife and kids to feed, what am I supposed to do? I'm ruined."
The phenomenon showed no sign of abating in the short-term, with thousands of American right-wingers bashing themselves insensible over the corpse of the genocidal maniac Hussein.
"Mmmm, mmmm, oh fuck yes, the Butcher of Baghdad who murdered and tortured and raped hundreds of thousands of Iraqis is dead today and the left is Upset?", puffed the Gateway Pundit,
"Oh Christ, yes, that's it, right there, please, yes... Oh, don't ever allow a Leftist to lecture you on human rights again... Ever... Oh God, oh Jesus...
"Oh my Lord, oh, my Lord! God, oh God, please help those sick, sick, depraved, filthy, perverted people."
Experts predict that Saddam-related self-abuse will likely abate in early 2007.

James reminds us that life is nothing more than a vapor, here one minute and gone the next. We make big plans, talk of big activities, and schedule a lot of appointments only to realize that those appointments are "tentative." The plans we make are only temporary and for the most part uncertain. Life is very unpredictable, and little is sure. It has been said that the best laid plans of mice and men are never for certain.
There are some things we can be sure of in this life: First, we can be sure that God loves us and desires to have a relationship with us. That is why He gave His only begotten Son. Second, we can be sure that just as we are born we will die. Death is a reality and something we all will face, but it doesn't have to be faced with fear. For those who are in Christ, death is nothing more than a stepping stone into eternal bliss. Third, we can be sure that if we ask Christ, he will save us and give us eternal life. Have you trusted Him?
In our time, some wake up wondering what they will face: health problems, financial difficulties, and/ or family disappointments. These are definitely uncertain times, but you can be sure of God's love, mercy, and grace, just trust His unseen hand.

PROGRAM GUIDELINESSolicitation 17-593
Important Information for Proposers
A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) (NSF 19-1), is effective for proposals submitted, or due, on or after February 25, 2019. Please be advised that, depending on the specified due date, the guidelines contained in NSF 19-1 may apply to proposals submitted in response to this funding opportunity.
NSF currently supports 28 LTER sites, and the solicitation is open to renewal proposals only.
To address ecological questions that cannot be resolved with short-term observations or experiments, NSF established the Long Term Ecological Research Program (LTER) in 1980. Two components differentiate LTER research from projects supported by other NSF programs: 1) the research is located at specific sites chosen to represent major ecosystem types or natural biomes, and 2) it emphasizes the study of ecological phenomena over long periods of time based on data collected in five core areas. Long-term studies are critical to achieve an integrated understanding of how components of ecosystems interact as well as to test ecological theory. Ongoing research at LTER sites is expected to contribute to the development and testing of fundamental ecological theories and significantly advance understanding of the long-term dynamics of populations, communities and ecosystems. It often integrates multiple disciplines and, through cross-site interactions may examine patterns or processes over broad spatial scales. Recognizing that the value of long-term data extends beyond use at any individual site, NSF requires that data collected by all LTER sites be made publicly accessible.

Tracfone Moto E Android Smartphone is Available!This post provides details and specs for the Moto E XT830C which is has recently become available for use with Tracfone We will continue to update as more information arrives.
|Moto E for Tracfone Now Available
The Motorola XT830C, which is more commonly referred to as simply the Moto E, is a powerful little smartphone running Android 4.4 and giving users a 4.3" touchscreen.
UPDATE: The Moto E is now available from several sources, including eBay, and Target stores. See below for links to the phone.
The Moto E comes from a small family of three phones produced by Motorola and is the lowest cost. The higher end Moto X, and extremely popular mid-level Moto G fill out this selection of highly rated phones. While there are some reports of the http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2014/11/use-moto-g-with-tracfone-byop.html">Moto G working with Tracfone BYOP, it is anything but easy or certain, so the Moto E may be the next best thing for many Tracfone customers.
The http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2014/06/samsung-galaxy-ace-style-s765c-coming.html">Samsung Galaxy Ace Style (not yet released) and the http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2014/06/lg-l34c-optimus-fuel-review.html">LG Optimus Fuel (available) are the two previous new phones to come to Tracfone. Each have upgrades that other Tracfone Androids don't have, but they still don't have everything consumers are looking for. Perhaps with the Moto E, and two other smartphones new to Tracfone, users will find a mobile device that fits their needs.
Along with the newly released Moto E, there are two more exciting phones currently available. The http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2014/10/lg-ultimate-2-l41c-tracfone.html">LG L41C Ultimate 2 and http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2014/10/alcatel-a564c-onetouch-icon-pop.html">Alcatel A564C which each sport screens larger than 4.5" inches (more information on these phones available at the links above!). Many Tracfone users have been hoping for Android devices with screens larger than 4", so these phones are very exciting to hear about.
Let's take a closer look at what the Moto E offers, including some of the important specifications.
Tracfone Moto E Specifications and What to ExpectThe Moto E is better than some of Tracfones other smartphones like the LG Optimus Dynamic II and LG Optimus Fuel in several areas. (But each phone has certain strengths and weaknesses). The two biggest features for the Moto E that set it apart are the 4.3" screen, and 1GB of RAM.
Below is the full list of features and specs for the Moto E:
|Tracfone Moto E
- Android 4.4
- 3G on Verizon CDMA Networks
- WiFi
- 5MP Rear Camera
- Micro USB 2.0 port
- 3.5mm Headphones
- 4GB Micro SD Card
- Bluetooth
- FM Radio
- Handsfree Speaker, MMS, Alarm clock
- MP3 Player, Proximity Sensor
- Call Waiting, Caller ID, Voice Dialing
- Triple Minutes for Life
Moto E Specs and Features:
- Size: 4.91" x 2.55" x 0.48"
- 4.3" qHD Touchscreen at 256ppi (540x960) and Gorilla Glass 3
- 1.2 Ghz Dual-core processor
- 4 GB Internal Memory, up to 32 GB External MicroSD slot
- Weight: 5 ounces
- 1980 mAh battery with 16.5 hrs talk time/30 days standby
Some of you might be very excited for the opportunity to have a Tracfone Smartphone with a dual-core processor and 1 GB of RAM. The Moto E is expected to be a great overall smartphone with its solid features and specs. And because it was made in partnership with Google, it will likely continue to be updated with the latest Android OS.
We could go on about the 4.3" screen, 1.2 Ghz processor, and all the other specs, but you probably get the idea that the Moto E comes with many features that beat Tracfone's other smartphones. However, the lack of a front facing camera (which the Alcatel Onetouch and LG Ultimate 2 both have, is a bit disappointing).
But let's move on and look at where the newly released Moto E might even be available.
A quick note, as one visitor mentioned in the comments, the Moto E doesn't have a front facing camera, nor flash, and the battery cannot be removed. These are some cons for the phone worth being aware of.
What to Expect and Where is the Tracfone Moto E Available?The Moto E will be for use on Verizon CDMA towers and you can probably expect the same kind of service as many of http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2014/07/tracfone-android-list.html">Tracfone's other current smartphones.
All of Tracfone's Android smartphones come with Triple Minutes for Life, and minutes are separated into talk, text and data. For a full explanation about this, view our http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2014/08/how-do-minutes-work-on-tracfone-android.html">Guide to How Minutes Work with Tracfone Android Phones.
Now, the big question most of you are asking is, where can you find the Moto E?
The Moto E is popping up in several places online, starting at $99:
Tracfone Moto E on Amazon - $99
Tracfone Moto E on eBay - $99
Tracfone Moto E with 600 Minutes on eBay - $129
Tracfone Moto E with 1200 Minutes on eBay - $149
You can also find the Moto E on the ShopCellDeals website.
Some people have also found the Moto E in Target stores.
The retail price for an unlocked Moto E is about $120 and the Tracfone Moto E for is available for a little less, but may still eventually be listed on the Tracfone website for $120.
We will keep you updated with the latest information on the Moto E. As soon as we find it available we will update this page. Stay even more up to date by following us on Facebook where we share lots of information on the latest Tracfone devices, as well as http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /p/tracfone-promo-codes.html">Tracfone Promo Codes!

If you're looking for a new phone, be sure to visit our http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /p/cell-phone-reviews.html">Cell Phone reviews page where we have a list of all our reviews of Tracfone cell phones.
You might also find our http://youshaoken.blogspot.com /2013/01/how-to-set-up-tracfone-family-value-plan.html">Guide to the Tracfone Family Value Plan useful because it shares all the details on how to put your whole family on a monthly no-contract Tracfone plan! (And all for less than $10 per phone!)

- Robert Arp, CV, Meanings of Ontology, Scenario Visualization
Digital Libraries
- Stacy Person, Digital Library Center. We are developing the digital library at UB as part of the UB Libraries, and are interested in collaborating with anyone who is working on a digital library project. We would like to help facilitate the centralization of server resources and other resources that would be of use to the whole group.
- MaryBeth Betzold, UB Libraries, Central Technical Services, Vocabulary Control Coordinator; specialty/area of interest: metadata; metadata schema
Currently working on provision of full metadata for the Darwin Martin Photograph Collection utilizing the Content DM Acquisition station (software), the AAT (Getty's Art & Architecture Thesaurus) and a project-driven version of Dublin Core. Project is a cooperative effort between the UB Archives/Special Collections and the Western New York Library Resources Council.
English Literature
- Ronan Crowley, Department of English, is marking up two of the extant drafts of the "Circe" episode of Joyce's Ulysses (one of which is at the Poetry Collection; the other the National Library of Ireland). He uses the <oXygen/> XML Editor. Ideally these marked-up texts will then be fed into some wonderful XSLT shell to produce a navigable interface.
For quicker results he is also working on a similar project; this time in Microsoft PowerPoint 2008. See Toby for details.
- Cristanne Miller, Department of English. Possibility of creating a hypertextual edition of Marianne Moore's first poetry notebook, about 160 pages of rough manuscript in which she maps initial (and sometimes more advanced stages) of several major poems, including "Marriage," "The Octopus," "Silence," "Spenser's Ireland," & "Sea Unicorns and Land Unicorns." The notebook is housed in the Rosenbach Museum and Library (Philadelphia), and I have their permission to proceed. The literary estate has up to this point denied permission.
History/Asian Studies
- Kristin Stapleton. A description of my 'Family' project may be found via the link on my name.
Web Archiving
- Austin Booth, Libraries. I am interested in the practice and politics of archiving born-digital material. I'm especially interested in the archiving of e-zines, web art, and hypertext/multimedia literature...particularly e-zines/web art/electronic literature created by women. I have not selected a "project" yet--am busy surveying the field to see what's being done. I'm also interested in creating digital versions of little magazines.

Interview: Electro-dance trio These Are Powers not so scary after all
Filing the thumping, bumping, electronic beats of Brooklyn-based experimental dance rock trio These Are Powers under a label like "ghost punk" may seem silly, but the emphasis on ethereal, spooky, and avant-garde sounds and textures in their first few releases is very real. "What 'ghost punk' means to me is approaching music with a kind of spirituality between this world and the 'other' world," explains founder Pat Noecker, formerly the bassist for the experimental rock trio Liars, who you may remember from their midnight show at the older incarnation of the newly-revamped Jefferson Theater back in 2006. On the upcoming Powers EP World Class Peoples/Candyman, Noecker and his new band may have moved away from the heebie-jeebies and instead focused on themes like angst and meditation, but sometimes the music can still give you goosebumps.
The Hook: What's your favorite thing about the new EP?
Pat Noecker: We're closer to realizing some of the electronic ideas that we have. It's not fully there, but we're really excited.
The Hook: Where is it headed next?
Pat Noecker: We're going to keep going forward by reducing more–- we don't have live drums anymore and we're psyched about that. There's no limit on what we can do.
The Hook: How is this band a better fit for you than Liars?
Pat Noecker: Liars was a band that required traditional playing, and what we're doing is very futuristic. I can explore the instrument for every possible sound it can make. In Liars, it was just bass, bass, bass.
The Hook: You often work closely with visual artists on your projects. Why?
Pat Noekcer: As a result of the internet, all art forms are meshing together, and I feel that you can't have one sense without the other–- it's hard to experience something on an auditory level without a visual component. A song is a sculpting space.
The Hook: Why did you decide to name this tour "Teen Yoga?"
Pat Noecker: It represents two states of mind: teen is angst and a kind of nervousness, restlessness, while yoga represents this meditative, calm, still state. You go through those two juxtaposed states of mind on tour: being stretched to the max, but when you finally play, you're at peace and it feels great.
These Are Powers perform at The Twisted Branch Tea Bazaar on Saturday, February 27. JEFF the Brotherhood opens. The show starts at 8pm and tickets are $8.

Hi all,
Not sure if you remember me, but I posted in the Intro section last week (I believe). DH and I are in the beginning process of finding an egg donor.
Well, we decided to contact a clinic in Spain, which I was referred to by a friend who's going through IVF. They came highly recommended. Well, DH and I have an appointment on November 4!!!!! We just found out late yesterday and I think I'm in shock. I, of course, had to call and tell my mom the news.
Can anybody give me an idea of what to expect at the consultation? Has anybody received eggs from other countries? Thank you.
Also, I really need to learn about egg donation and the whole process. I'm getting so confused with everything I'm reading online. I thought I get a book (or two ) to read. I checked Amazon, but they don't give much of a description. Has anybody read any books regarding egg donation? If so, what can you suggest?
Thank you.
An excited, scared, nervous, happy....

Henri (Marie Eugène) Duparc
1848 – 1933
Duparc short biography
Even though, the French composer Henri Duparc wrote only thirteen songs, those compositions have considerable importance in French vocal repertoire. Having never completed his professional music education, Duparc took some private lessons from Cesar Franck. The Duparc's songs were received with high acclaim and his major composition career seemed to be secured, but Dupark soon stopped composing because of a severe nervous breakdown. Richard Wagner was a significant influence on the Dupark's compositions.

Nate Berg
Nate Berg is a freelance reporter and a former staff writer for CityLab. He lives in Los Angeles.
Michael Wallace is pretty excited about the new bike ride he's got planned. It's a tribute, he says, to the Crocodile Hunter.
"I can't wait to ride that one," he says.
How a bike ride can honor the legacy of the late animal-wrestling Australian television host is a mix of powerful and pocket-sized technology, satellites, and one very creative man who uses his bike rides to paint city-sized digital pictures on the streets of Baltimore.
Wallace has become an enthusiast of what he calls GPX – or using the Global Positioning System-tracking capability of his phone to record the path he takes on bike rides, which he pre-plans to outline massive geoglyphs and drawings. It's like a city-scaled and semi-crude Etch-a-Sketch drawing, and Wallace is the pinpoint drawing the line.
He must look almost lost zig-zagging through the city, retracing steps and abruptly turning, but it's all for the final product. His works have included a cowboy's boot, a boat pulling a waterskier, a guitar, a guy kicking a field goal and various monsters, bugs, and animals – all at least a few miles wide, and some lines more than 15 miles long. The geoglyphs have grown more elaborate with time, and some even take off on current events. Here are a few gems:
"GPX MythWallogy," 9.72 miles, 1 hour 56 minutes.
"Hurricane Irene," 10.36 miles, 1 hour 39 minutes.
"Donkey Kong."
Wallace is an eighth-grade science teacher, and since 2010 he's been using his breaks from school to map out and ride more than 120 massive, multi-mile drawings on the canvas of Southeast Baltimore. He's gearing up for this summer, when he'll ride his next batch of routes, including the Crocodile Hunter ride. Within minutes of mentioning it, he's emailed over a sketch of the route.
Though Wallace isn't the originator of this activity, he is probably its most enthusiastic practitioner. On spring or summer days he can get through two or three of these "virtual geoglyphic adventures," most of which are archived on his website. In addition to his Steve Irwin ride, he's got at least 50 more planned out.
One particularly elaborate plan commemorates Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have Dream" speech.
Another re-enacts a city-centered fight between the fantasy monsters Godzilla and Mothra, an especially appropriate picture to draw with the city grid.
It's pretty impressive that he's been able to develop such a level of precision and shape in his pathways. The blocky grid of Southeast Baltimore is full of 90-degree turns that can be a bit limiting. But Wallace says he's figured out how to take wide turns on corners and cut through open areas to get the curves his pictures require. He's also benefited from Patterson Park, where he's got at least a little more freedom to bend his lines. There are still some challenges, though. "I learned where every single fence is in that park," he says. On a recent ride, his path was leading right through the middle of a softball game. He sped through the outfield between innings.
To make these drawings, Wallace brings a detailed map of the city, with arrows and paths marked to keep him on track. It's not always perfect, and one missed turn can ruin what can sometimes be hours worth of work. A one-block misstep had a huge impact on an early drawing of a giant rat. "My rat ended up looking sort of like an armadillo," Wallace says.
Short of these infrequent mix-ups and thunderstorm-caused GPS glitches, Wallace's rides and geoglyphs have become more smooth and polished. He's even shown some of his work in local art galleries. And he's got a lot planned for his upcoming season starting after school lets out in June. He's already psyching himself up for one especially complex ride titled "Continental Drift" – a massive representation of plate tectonics.
"I've had it planned for so long now. I look at it every once in a while and think about how it's going to go," he says. "I'm so excited for it."
Despite what will be nearly 200 drawings under his belt by the end of the summer, Wallace doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon. He says these rides have been a great way to see more of his city – and they're not bad exercise either. And even with the hard edges of the city grid, he's still able to come up with new drawings to make and new paths to ride.
"I know it's time to hang it up when I pull a map out and one doesn't flow out of me," Wallace says. "But that hasn't happened yet."

This year-long journey across the U.S. keeps you at consistent high temperatures.
New research has kicked off a war of words among urban scholars over the push for upzoning to increase cities' housing supply.
When traffic-clogged highways are expanded, new drivers quickly materialize to fill them. What gives? Here's how "induced demand" works.
Storms supercharged by climate change pose a dire threat to river towns. After two catastrophic floods, tiny Ellicott City faces a critical decision: Rebuild, or retreat?
"I would love to model all of Wright's work, but it is immense," says architect David Romero. "I do not know if during all my life I will have time."

This weekend, a colleague texted me to say she just discovered a bunch of my old posts and was reading and enjoying them. She figured those were the only ones she ever missed. Then I told her there were close to 500 posts on this site and she's probably missed many more than she realized. I chuckled at her reply: "Great, now I'm going to be up all night."
I am always touched when a real-world colleague makes it a point to talk to me about my blog. Considering that this space was once underground and only one person in school knew I was writing it, it's still something of a surprise when the blog is referenced at school or by a colleague. Most every time, people have something nice and supportive to say, and I appreciate it.
At my most sentimental and honest, I write about my educational values in very clear terms. Or, I write about certain anecdotes about students that have made a mark on me.
I realized yesterday why this blog speaks to so many colleagues in the real world and in the virtual world.
It's because so many feel the same way I do about certain ideals. This blog is a way for them to connect emotionally when they otherwise might not. I've learned that I'm not the only one who believes in ideals such as the importance of respecting our students and believing in their abilities. But I may be the only one articulating these ideals in writing in a way that inspires people.
I'm glad my colleagues feel a connection here. In the past, I wrote many of them off as passionless, disinterested, and out just for the paycheck. As I've gotten to know them better, and as they've talked to me about this blog, I've learned that quite the opposite is true. They're more passionate and interested in their work than I ever gave them credit for.
People may be thanking me for my blog, but I'm thanking them for opening my eyes.

Most Recent Book
"After the Barn is a gripping story of how a family deals with tragedy, and with secrets. But it is also a testament to the bravery inherent in seeking the clues to one's intimate past." – Daniel Okrent, first public editor of the New York Times and author of Great Fortune: The Epic of Rockefeller Center and Last Call: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition.
"Richard Pollak, in his irresistible and affecting memoir, takes us on an odyssey in which we discover how tragedy extends far beyond the event itself to a lifetime of aftermath, of ripplings and reverberations hiding and appearing in unlikely and astonishing places. This is a beautiful book." – Jenny McPhee, author of the novels A Man of No Moon, No Ordinary Matter and The Center of Things.
Richard Pollak is the author of the books at right and the memoir After the Barn, available as an e-book and in paperback. It begins on a hot August day, when the author, then fourteen, angrily shouted down to his parents, "Tell him you'll punish him if he doesn't stop hiding!" Moments later he was sucked into a maelstrom of straw. He has no memory of how he managed to extricate himself and get down from the loft, or of anything else on that fateful Saturday, when his 11-year-old mentally disturbed brother, with whom he had been playing hide-and-seek in the barn, slipped through the same hole and fell thirty-five feet to his death. Only a few months later, the author lost consciousness and also fell: down a flight of stairs, awakening to learn that he suffered from the "falling sickness," epilepsy. Twenty-five years on, he was still coping with the unnerving disorder and the depressive side effects of anticonvulsant medication, when his mother fell through a hole and nearly died much as his brother had. After the Barn is a compelling account of this traumatic family history, at once a penetrating exploration of the medical, psychological and literary worlds of epilepsy, mental illness, and childhood death, and a deeply personal rumination on grief, sibling guilt, and the elusiveness of memory.
The veteran Chicago journalist Michael Miner was so struck by After the Barn that he devoted two columns to the book, the first tracing Pollak's sometimes harrowing tale, the second describing the road the author took to publication. The link to his pieces is at left.
To read the first two chapters of the memoir, click the top link at left, where you also can purchase After the Barn, as well as Pollak's other books. The books are also available online at Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Apple's iBookstore and other retailers, and through your local bookstore.

The Renewable Fuel Standard works
The fuels of the future are here today, and we can thank Congress for enacting the Renewable Fuel Standard. This bedrock policy has brought us to the point where the first commercial facilities producing cellulosic renewable fuels are up and running, and several more are under construction. As a result of this innovative policy, the United States is a world leader in the development of this renewable energy source and has attracted billions of dollars of private-sector investment.
DuPont and the Union of Concerned Scientists share a commitment to science-based solutions. We come at this commitment in different ways but we are united in our support for cellulosic renewable fuels. We believe it is essential for the emerging industry to flourish — and to do so, it needs the policy stability provided by the RFS. As the cornerstone of our biofuels policy, it provides industry with a predictable market signal, rewards innovation and investment in the development of new renewable fuel technologies, the steady improvement of their environmental benefits and the expansion of domestic fuel production in rural America.
Story Continued Below
Unfortunately, the oil industry associations argue that the RFS is a failed policy and that we should abandon it. They are wrong. And the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit agrees. While the court recently ordered the Environmental Protection Agency to be more neutral in setting annual cellulosic requirements, what's more important is that the court upheld the EPA's overall approach and the requirements for advanced biofuels.
The fact is that ending or reopening the RFS would simply delay the realization of the energy, climate and economic goals a strong bipartisan congressional majority committed to five years ago and leave us back where we started — dependent on fossil fuels for our transportation needs. Perhaps that is what the oil lobbyists want, but it is clearly not what America wants or needs.
The first chapter of the RFS has seen renewable fuels grow to play a substantial role in our fuel supply. The next chapter of the RFS is about the commercialization of advanced and especially cellulosic renewable fuels made from residues such as agricultural and wood waste and trash. That commercialization is under way, and well-established companies like DuPont are investing their own money to build the first commercial production facilities, such as the more than $200 million facility the company recently broke ground on in Iowa.

Paint can crack and flake, sometimes revealing the substrate.
Dry paint can split through at least one coat, which will lead to complete failure of the paint. Early on, the problem appears as hairline cracks. Later, flaking of paint chips occurs. A variety of causes exist for cracking or flaking of paint. First, if lower-quality paint has been applied to the surface, it will have inadequate adhesion and flexibility. Another cause is that the paint was spread too thin on the surface.
Poor surface preparation, especially when the paint is applied to bare wood without priming, can also cause this problem. Finally, painting under cool or windy conditions can make latex paint dry too fast, causing it to crack.
If the cracking does not go down to the substrate, you may be able to correct it by removing the loose or flaking paint with a scraper or wire brush, sanding the area to feather the edges, priming any bare spots, and repainting it.
If the cracking goes down to the substrate, remove all of the paint by scraping and sanding or use a heat gun. Then prime and repaint with a quality exterior paint.

The South Dakota School of Mines & Technology is partnering with a technology firm to offer a pilot biometric program on campus.
Developers hope the pilot program will one day lead to a cashless society. The university says it is the first in the country to use the technology.
The Nexus Smart Pay pilot program is being tested by 50 students and faculty at two locations on campus. The faculty and students pay for goods by scanning their finger. The money is then taken out of an account that students and faculty have deposited money into.
The university's acting president, Duane Hrncir, says the university is proud to be not only the first university but the first organization to pilot the program. Nexus USA developed the smart pay program.

TOKYO — Former Japanese Prime Minister Tomiichi Murayama said Thursday that the landmark 1995 war apology carrying his name is an international pledge that Japan must not change, amid speculation that the current conservative leaders want to revise it.
Murayama said that Japan should also keep another apology over forced prostitution before and during World War II, and urged Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to stand by both statements.
"Nobody can deny the Murayama statement," he said during his rare public speech in Tokyo since his retirement in 2000. "It has become an international pledge and Japan's national policy. It's impossible to deny it, and for that reason I trust Prime Minister Abe would observe it."
The apology was issued under Murayama and is seen as Japan's main expression of remorse for its wartime and colonial past. It has since been endorsed by all 10 prime ministers, including Abe's earlier administration in 2007.
Since taking office in 2012, Abe has angered China and South Korea, which were occupied by Japan before and during World War II, by questioning the meaning of the word "aggression" in the 1995 apology and saying there is no international consensus on its definition. Abe suggested that his Cabinet does not necessarily support the entire apology, though he later promised to stand by it.
Abe's visit to Tokyo's shrine honoring the war dead including convicted war criminals in December has escalated tension with Japan's neighbors.
Murayama was a Democratic Socialist who led the three-party coalition government that included Abe's Liberal Democratic Party from 1994 to 1996. He issued the statement of apology to mark the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II.
Murayama also criticized growing attempts by nationalist lawmakers to discredit the apology for forced prostitution by citing the lack of official wartime documents specifically stating that the government at the time systematically forced Asian women to provide sex for Japanese soldiers at military brothels.
Although numbers vary, historians say up to 200,000 women from across Asia, mostly Koreans, were forced into prostitution. There is a growing movement by Japanese nationalists and revisionists to try to deny the use of coercion and scrap the 1993 apology signed by then-Chief Cabinet Secretary Yohei Kono. They say the apology is based on false accounts provided by former sex slaves from South Korea.
Abe wants to issue a fresh statement marking the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II next year.
Since taking office for the second time, Abe has said he prefers to leave history up to historians and avoid comment.
