etour | My OHIO Portal
Nov. 7, 2007By Jackie Zimmerman
The Harlem Globetrotters are coming to Athens Jan. 16, and a group of Ohio University students is just as jazzed about coordinating the visit as the audience will be to watch the legendary performers clown around on the court.
Thirty-two graduate students are working within the university's Center for Sports Administration to organize the Convocation Center event. Their roles were mapped out as part of their Sports and Sports Consumers course, taught by David Ridpath, an assistant professor of sports administration in the School of Recreation and Sport Sciences.
"It's a wonderful experience for students before they head out into the real world," said Jim Kahler, executive director of the Center for Sports Administration. "They'll be able to look back in 20 years and say, 'We're the class that brought the Globetrotters to Athens.'"
Kahler compared students' roles to those of regional promoters who coordinate Globetrotter events around the nation. And while many sports administration grad students already have gained professional experience, the magnitude of this event and the planning it will require promises to provide invaluable practical lessons.
Revenue from the performance will help fund future initiatives for grad students in the Center for Sports Administration, a unit of the College of Health and Human Services.
"Instead of reading about it in a book and hearing a professor speak about it, we're actually going out and doing group sales, talking to sponsors and creating relationships in the area," said grad student Michael Jacobs, who is serving as ticket manager for the event.
The Globetrotters are entering their 82nd year of touring, having played more than 20,000 exhibition games in 118 countries. Their alumni include some of the most recognizable names in basketball history -- Wilt Chamberlain and Meadowlark Lemon among them.
If the event is successful, the center hopes to make it a continuing class project by enticing the Globetrotters to come back every three or four years.
The Center for Sports Administration was formed in 2005 to enhance the university's Sports Administration and Facility Management graduate program, which was founded in 1966. The graduate program is the nation's oldest in the field and is viewed by many sports-industry executives as the most prestigious. Students in the master's program, a collaboration of the colleges of Business and Health and Human Services, receive a dual degree in sports administration and business administration.
The Harlem Globetrotters' performance is set for 7 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 16. Tickets range from $13 to $51 and can be obtained by calling 1-866-MY-TICKET or visiting www.ticketreturn.com.

Finding your element is simple, yes you realize it on your own, you commune with nature and the elements while on your path, and over time which ever element you feel most connected with or moist comfortable with becomes your element.
In reference to your initial question about spells, my answer would be first to learn, study, and practice the basics of magic. Do so before trying to cast and you may be more successful in the long run, than taking a backwards approach to the craft. These are just a few simple suggestions you may want to consider.

The Alzheimer's Society has awarded Tring official Dementia Friendly status as part of the government's Dementia Challenge scheme.
The town's day centre welcomes those with dementia, and the COGS club provides help to those who are having trouble with their memory through cognitive stimulation therapy. A dementia cafe also runs twice a month at Tring Community Centre in Silk Mill.
Chairman of Dementia Friendly Tring John Allan said: "A lot of hard work from a number of people has enabled Tring to be among the first communities to achieve dementia-friendly status.
"We now need to move forward and provide a friendly environment in shops, restaurants, hairdressers and so on for those living with dementia."
Since the birth of community group, more than 60 people have attended awareness raising sessions in the town and have consequently become Dementia Friends.
There are estimated to be more than 200 people living with dementia in and around Tring, many of whom live alone.

I love any excuse for a research trip and a chance to escape a frantic and busy life, so when my husband suggested a trip to Bath at the weekend I was very excited. I thought I'd share some of the photos I took of the Assembly Rooms in Bennett Street, which are stunningly beautiful. It is so easy to imagine social gatherings taking place here in Jane Austen's time; you can hear the chatter and rustle of silk gowns just by looking into one of the rooms. The top photo shows the entrance, which some of you may recognise from the television adaptations of Persuasion.
The second shows one of the fireplaces in the Octagon room which is where card tables might be set up for those not interested in dancing and wishing to try their luck with a little gambling.
Lastly, is the Tea Room which was used primarily for refreshments and concerts. Meals were served throughout the day from public breakfasts to supper during dress balls. Food was laid out on side-tables and included such delights as sweetmeats, jellies, wine, biscuits, cold ham and turkey. Tea was the favourite drink, generally without milk, but occasionally with lemon or arrack (fermented cocoa).
In this extract from Jane Austen's Persuasion, Anne Elliot has met up with her old love, Captain Wentworth, at the Assembly Rooms. She has recently discovered that he is not in love with Louisa Musgrove and from the very recent conversation with him dares to hope that he may still have some feelings for Anne.
As she ceased, the entrance door opened again, and the very party appeared for whom they were waiting. "Lady Dalrymple, Lady Dalrymple!" was the rejoicing sound; and with all the eagerness compatible with anxious elegance, Sir Walter and his two ladies stepped forward to meet her. Lady Dalrymple and Miss Carteret, escorted by Mr. Elliot and Colonel Wallis, who had happened to arrive nearly at the same instant, advanced into the room. The others joined them, and it was a group in which Anne found herself also necessarily included. She was divided from Captain Wentworth. Their interesting, almost too interesting conversation, must be broken up for a time, but slight was the penance compared with the happiness which brought it on! She had learnt, in the last ten minutes, more of his feelings towards Louisa, more of all his feelings, than she dared to think of; and she gave herself up to the demands of the party, to the needful civilities of the moment, with exquisite, though agitated sensations. She was in good humour with all. She had received ideas which disposed her to be courteous and kind to all, and to pity every one, as being less happy than herself.
The delightful emotions were a little subdued, when on stepping back from the group, to be joined again by Captain Wentworth, she saw that he was gone. She was just in time to see him turn into the Concert Room. He was gone — he had disappeared, she felt a moment's regret. But "they should meet again. He would look for her, he would find her out long before the evening were over, and at present, perhaps, it was as well to be asunder. She was in need of a little interval for recollection."
Upon Lady Russell's appearance soon afterwards, the whole party was collected, and all that remained was to marshal themselves, and proceed into the Concert Room; and be of all the consequence in their power, draw as many eyes, excite as many whispers, and disturb as many people as they could.
Very, very happy were both Elizabeth and Anne Elliot as they walked in. Elizabeth, arm-in-arm with Miss Carteret, and looking on the broad back of the Dowager-Viscountess Dalrymple before her, had nothing to wish for which did not seem within her reach; and Anne – but it would be an insult to the nature of Anne's felicity to draw any comparison between it and her sister's: the origin of one all selfish vanity, of the other all generous attachment.
Anne saw nothing, thought nothing of the brilliancy of the room. Her happiness was from within. Her eyes were bright, and her cheeks glowed; but she knew nothing about it. She was thinking only of the last half-hour…

Nebraska Football: Latest News, Injuries and Updates on the CornhuskersApril 18, 2012
Nebraska Football: Latest News, Injuries and Updates on the Cornhuskers
Just because Nebraska's spring work wrapped up one practice short, thanks to a thunderstorm that took out Nebraska's spring game over the weekend, doesn't mean there isn't a lot going on in and around the football program. Let's take a look at some of the most recent NU News.
Rex Burkhead Is a Heisman Contender
Well, at least there's some discussion about it here and here. It's an interesting case, and when you look at Burkhead's statistics, you understand how the argument could be made.
But, as both articles point out, Burkhead's no-nonsense style might get in the way of a Heisman candidacy. He's a tough runner, but not an especially flashy runner, so the concern is that Burkhead might not have the "Heisman moment" that he would need to contend for the trophy.
Plus, if Nebraska goes 8-4 in 2012, it's unlikely that Burkhead will get any kind of mention for such an individual honor. And Burkhead will have to displace Montee Ball of Wisconsin, whom most pundits will view as the best returning back in the Big Ten.
Still, it's a good sign for Nebraska to have an offensive player mentioned in the same sentence as the Heisman Trophy. That hasn't happened for awhile, and it might be a sign of good things to come for NU's offense.
No Spring Game, No Problem for One Recruit
Even though he ended up missing out on seeing Nebraska's Spring Game due to the inclement weather, defensive end A.J. Natter committed to NU over the weekend. Natter, a Wisconsin native and a 4-star recruit, according to Scout, chose Nebraska over Wisconsin, Michigan State and Iowa, according to the Lincoln Journal-Star.
Taylor's Feet Are the Talk of the Town
Throughout the offseason, Nebraska fans have heard all about how quarterback Taylor Martinez has visited quarterback coaches and focused on the fundamentals of his throwing mechanism. Tim Beck, offensive coordinator and newly-christened quarterbacks coach, has even appeared on the Big Ten Network discussing his changes.
The Spring Game wouldn't have seen a lot of Martinez on the field, but it would have given NU fans the chance to see his fancy footwork on display. Now, we'll all have to wait until September to see if Martinez's focus on mechanics will pay off.
The Back-Up Backfield Has Been Clarified
With Braylon Heard moving to defense, the pecking order has been clarified a little bit in terms of who will be backing up Rex Burhkead. Aaron Green and Ameer Abdullah, each dangerous backs in their own way, will get the opportunity to compete head-to-head for playing time spelling Burkhead.
The coaching staff knows that Burkhead cannot touch the ball as often as he did in 2011 without risking injury, so the performances of Green and Abdullah will go a long way in determining Nebraska's offensive success in 2012.
Tickets Might Be a Little Easier to Come By
No, the sellout streak isn't in jeopardy. But Nebraska is well underway with an expansion to the east stadium, which will put Memorial Stadium's seating capacity over 90,000 when construction is complete. The structure isn't scheduled to be completed until after the 2012 season and will include new club seating and suites in addition to general seating.
But the waiting list for season tickets is still pretty long, unfortunately for those long-suffering fans waiting for a chance at their season pass.

Skip to comments.Denver Archbishop scolds pro-choice Biden
Posted on 08/26/2008 7:27:02 AM PDT by WilliamReading
Catholic Archbishop Chaput, who was scheduled to lead a pro-life candlelight vigil Monday night here in front of Planned Parenthood, called Mr. Biden's support for abortion rights "seriously wrong," said archdiocese spokeswoman Jeanette De Melo.
"I certainly presume his good will and integrity," said the archbishop, "and I presume that his integrity will lead him to refrain from presenting himself for Communion if he supports a false 'right' to abortion."
The archbishop, who was not invited to speak at any convention events in what appeared to be a deliberate snub, told the Associated Press that he would like to speak privately with Mr. Biden.
The debate underscored what has emerged as a central theme of this year's convention: the tension between the Democratic Party's renewed outreach to religious voters and its long-standing support for unfettered access to abortion.
"The push for the Democratic Party is to have a new position on abortion," said Steve Waldman, editor of the religious Web site beliefnet.com. "When you look at Catholics and evangelicals, you see that they agree with 80 percent of what [Mr. Obama] says, but there's this stumbling block with abortion."
Whether pro-choice Catholics should take Communion became a major issue in 2004 during Democrat John Kerry's run for the presidency when more than a dozen bishops, including Archbishop Chaput, publicly asked the senator from Massachusetts not to present himself for the Eucharist.
Their stance may have given a boost to President Bush, who increased his share of the Catholic vote from 47 percent in 2000 to 52 percent in 2004.
"Now everywhere Biden campaigns, we'll have this question of whether a pro-abortion Catholic can receive Communion. ... Selecting a pro-abortion Catholic is a slap in the face to Catholic voters," said Fidelis President Brian Burch
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...
You are correct. He has already made a clear public pronouncement as Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura here.
no sweat.
In the end - all these people have complete freedom to march into whatever church they choose.
These cinos obviously don't believe in church teaching regarding the eucharist.
There are other churches with different beliefs regarding communion that would suit them better.
The Church is never going to change just to appease Biden or Pelosi.
But the cinos want the "catholic vote" so they continue to refer themselves as "catholic" when they aren't.
Cokie Roberts just came out with a ridiculously shallow book revealing the same problem "oh whoa is me! I'm a catholic but I thing the Church is archaic, paternalistic, and mean!"
The Archbishops must follow the guidelines of the church which go along with the Commandments — Thou shalt not kill, and the belief that life begins at conception.
I have posted the official Catholic teaching from the Catechism of the Catholic Church many times. Evidently you have not seen it.

Not Romanist here either, but I find it deeply sad that all these bishops ever do to these claiming-proud-to-be-Catholic politcians—WHO ARE THE LEADING POLITICAL PROPONENTS OF ABORTION IN AMERICA—is "scold."
Telling a fake Christian he "better not take Communion!" is like telling a philanderer that he better not kiss his wife.
The selective enforcement by the Bishops is what I find distressing.
Actually they don't even report to the Pope, in the manner in which you probably imagine. A bishop is absolute ruler within his bishopric. The pope can't just tell a bishop to do something, or not to do something, and then be able to enforce it. The pope is "first among equals' among the bishops.
Now, the pope has a lot of power. If that bishop wants to ever have any hope of a more prestigious diocese, or to have influence in getting his guys appointed bishop, or any number of other things that the pope can dispense, he has to at least pretend to do as Papa requires. And the longer the Pope is in power the more of "his guys" get appointed giving him more power. Indeed, the Pope shapes the church after he is gone because so many of the men voting for the next pope are appointed by him.
"I certainly presume his good will and integrity," said the archbishop, "and I presume that his integrity will lead him to refrain from presenting himself for Communion if he supports a false 'right' to abortion."
The archbishop, who was not invited to speak at any convention events in what appeared to be a deliberate snub, told the Associated Press that he would like to speak privately with Mr. Biden.
Go get 'im, Archbishop!
Great news! Thanks for the ping.
Canon 1398 is clear: "A person who actually procures an abortion incurs an automatic excommunication," the canon states. Abortion is intrinsically evil as an act, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church rightly teaches in paragraph 2271 that abortion "is gravely contrary to the moral law" and an "abominable crime."
With regard to those who perform, promote, fund, or are accessories to the practice of abortion, the second paragraph of Canon 1329 already provides for their automatic excommunication as accomplices who, "without their assistance, the crime would not have been committed ..."
It is clear to me that a man or woman who holds political power, who either legalizes of "enables" abortion, especially one who votes against restricting it, or votes in favor of funding it, qualifies as an accomplice and thus comes under canonical excommunication.
All that is needed, is that Catholics in large numbers start acting like Catholics. What a cause for rejoicing that would be!
(Please allow me a seven-syllable sigh.......) Not exactly.
The question would be, what kind of enforcement is necessary and possible? The Church is obviously a voluntary organization. It has no secular enforcement arm; and even where penalties are incurred, the penalties are spiritual or ecclesiastical, not such things as fines, imprisonment, being put in the stocks for public derision (though some of that strikes me as being increasingly appropriate...)
In the organizational sense, every bishop is supposed to take care of his own diocese. He can't be voted out, nor can the Pope just "fire" him.
I would love to see some full-fledged, dramatic, public, Bell, Book and Candle excommunications. (Of course, I'm one who considers the penitent Emperor Henry IV falling to his knees before Gregory VII in the snow of Canossa (1077) as one of the high points of European history.)
But I'm afaid it would just strike most of the general public as "too medieval" and garner for the offenders an undeserved glory as "Noble Rebels Against Popish Oppression."
Know what I mean?
Nevertheless, with good-guy Raymond Burke heading the canonical court in Rome, and good-guy Benedict approving, you will see more and stronger action in coming months, I'm sure. It's up to us Christifideles Laici --- Christ's Faithful People ---to keep on prayin' ...and keep on pushin'...
In the organizational sense, every bishop is supposed to take care of his own diocese. He can't be voted out, nor can the Pope just "fire" him.
A bishop can't be fired? And are not Priests "employees" of the Catholic Church?
There are options, though. A bishop can have his authority curtailed, as Seattle Archbishop Raymond Hunthausen's was, back in the 1980's, when the Pope appointed an auxiliary bishop for him who basically took over most of his job. Or he could be reassigned to someplace where he can't get into trouble, as when the wacky Emmanuel Milingo, Archbishop of Lusaka (Zambia) was appointed to be in charge of "Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant Peoples" (in Rome) where he would be under the watchful eye of other senior clerics.
It's not simple. But watch. More will be happening.
Some are even predicting a schism, and the emergence of an apostate American Catholic Church. Schism is never a good thing, but in some ways we have an internal, undercover schism going on right now, with "defectors in place" --- I'm speaking of laypeople, theologians, nuns, priests and bishops --- who are in quiet mutiny against the Church and who may be pushed to the point of openly splitting.
This would be awful, but even strong medicine is sometimes therapuetic.

The wireless Lan switch segment was especially strong, said Infonetics, achieving 27% revenue growth in 2006, despite a slower fourth quarter.
"It was a strong year for wireless Lan equipment, posting double-digit annual growth for the third consecutive year," said Richard Webb, an analyst at Infonetics Research.
He said, "Organisations are learning to leverage high speed connectivity with mobility in the workplace, meaning wireless Lans continue to penetrate all sectors.
"Additionally, 802.11 solidified its position as the leading home networking technology, with sales of consumer products boosted by the launch of even faster pre-802.11n draft products in 2006," said Webb.
Infonetics predicts that worldwide WLAN equipment revenue will grow 51% to $4.3bn (£2.26bn) between 2006 and 2010.
Linksys is the leading provider of Wi-Fi kit in residential markets, followed by Netgear and D-Link, said Infonetics.
Cisco is the leader in the business market, followed by Aruba Networks and Motorola, which recently acquired Symbol Technologies.

Use these 9 ideas to make this your most amazing fall for families, children, and your entire church.
Colorful leaves, football, hayrides, apple cider, a return to school, and fuller Sunday school rooms. Fall must be here! This autumn, create some new memories with this amazing assortment of tried-and-true ideas. Not only will children and families have a blast, but they'll also get to know one another — and God — even better.
Summer never seems to last as long as we'd like, but you can help families preserve their cherished memories.
Get Ready You'll need card stock, markers, glue sticks, scrapbooking embellishments (stickers, buttons, ribbon), and some sample pages or scrapbooking magazines for ideas. Recruit a scrapbook enthusiast from your congregation to provide tips and possibly share a die-cutting machine. Hold this in a large room with several tables.
Get Set Have families bring in pictures from their summer activities and outings-vacations, staycations, birthdays, family reunions, VBS, the zoo, amusement parks, whatever. Then have them spread out their photos, group them by topic, and work together to assemble some pages. Encourage families to journal on their pages and spreads so they can remember all their adventures for years to come.
Faith Talk Read Psalm 118:24. Ask: What will you remember most from this summer? What are ways God was with you during the good days and the tough days of summer?
Even Easier Another option is to give each family an inexpensive mini-album, available at craft stores or online. If you have access to a computer and printer, people can print their comments and then paste them in their scrapbooks.
Celebrate Children's Day this year.
Get Ready Ask parents to write a letter to each of their children, telling how much they love and appreciate them — and why. Encourage them to keep the letters a surprise and either mail or hand-deliver them to you. Make sure you have a letter for each child; if a parent doesn't return one, write a letter to that child. Have some generic letters on hand for extra children who show up that day.
You'll need decorations (balloons, banners, table centerpieces), a variety of snacks, ribbons or flowers to pin on each child, and small gifts or certificates.
Get Set Greet all the children by pinning a ribbon or flower on them as they arrive. In every segment of your service or lesson, create ways for children to be in charge. For example, let them vote for which game to play from a short list of options. Discuss a Bible passage that involves children (God calling the boy Samuel, David working as a shepherd boy, Jesus welcoming children). In advance, select a few letters to read aloud. Present each child with his or her special letter. Remind children they're all special to God, who loves and appreciates them every day.
Conclude by handing out small gifts or certificates. For example, give children each a 100 Grand candy bar with a sticker that says, "You're priceless to God!" Or hand out official Kids Appreciation certificates, rolled up and tied with blue ribbon.
At Halloween, all sorts of zombies arise in costume. But we know there's only one true Savior who can raise people from the dead — the greatest Tomb Raider of all: Jesus. Kids will transform a simple piece of paper into something they can step right through!
Get Ready You'll need 11×17 sheets of paper (1 per child) and child safety scissors.
Get Set Show kids the sheet of paper and ask them if they think they could miraculously walk through it. Then show children how to cut the paper so they can walk through it, using the steps on the right.
Faith Talk Read Luke 24:1-9 about a genuine miracle. Ask: What surprised you about this game? Why do you think the women were so surprised by Jesus' miracle?
Paper Directions
1. Fold the paper in half and cut from the folded side to about half an inch from the open side. Do this on both ends of the paper, about half an inch in.
2. Cut down the fold in the paper, but don't cut the folded part of the two strips from step 1.
3. Alternating from one side of the paper to the other side, cut strips about every half-inch, ending each cut about half an inch from the opposite edge of the paper. (The closer together guests cut their strips, the more space they'll have to walk through.)
4. Carefully open the paper, which will be a large paper hoop kids can walk through.

I have an SSIS package that I am writing to replace a very long winded process which uses an access 97 (would you believe it) which also links to and updates DBF files and it's fair to say I'm struggling, the DBF files do have to stay and have to be output in the same format. The issue I'm facing at the moment is that I have an execute SQL Task that runs a stored procedure to basically checks the integrity of various tables, if any of the statements in the stored procedure come back with a value the SSIS package needs to stop and the user needs to manually check various things.
I've set the stored procedure with the output variables see below:
I've also set the SSIS package to accept output parameters; see below. In case you were wondering the only way I could get the step to run in SSIS was if the @Total variable was varchar, it didn't seem to like INT, Float or anything else I tried.
My issue is that if the @Total field comes back with anything > 0 then I need to stop the package and show the output from @Output and I can't find anywhere how to do this.
Any ideas greatfully received, if I've gone about this completely the wrong way I'm more than happy to start again.
Many many thanks.

First of all, have a look at this page, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141036.aspx it shows the mapping between sql and the parameters, for a SQL int, use a long etc.
You can use precendence constraints for this. As long as your parameters are getting the correct output from the SP, add two script tasks to the control flow after the execute SQL task. Create a connection to both the script tasks, and click on the first connection.
Change the EvalOp value to ExpressionAndConstraint and click on the control and on the connection again(for some reason my 2005 version requires this). Now in the expression value, enter your variable like this (add an @ symbol to the front of your variable)
this constraint will obviously be your stop point, then you can use the script task (or in production send en email) to notify the user of the error
And on the second connection do the same again, this time enter the expression as
This "side" of the package will continue as normal if there are no errors.
Good luck!

Merkel's Chief of Staff Called to Testify on Spying
Chancellor Angela Merkel's chief of staff rejected what he called "unbelievable accusations" against German intelligence services as the government fended off a wave of criticism over what it knew about U.S. spying.
Ronald Pofalla, the cabinet-level chancellery aide who coordinates German espionage, said intelligence officials conformed to German law. He dismissed a report in Der Spiegel that the head of Germany's BND Federal Intelligence Service sought to weaken privacy laws and that Germany transferred "massive" data to the U.S. National Security Agency.
"The work of our intelligence services is necessary for the protection of German citizens," Pofalla told reporters today in Berlin after answering questions in front of the Parliamentary Control Panel, which met behind closed doors.
Less than nine weeks before elections, Merkel's government is weathering a torrent of criticism from the Social Democratic-led opposition about how much Germany cooperated with the NSA in mass surveillance of German citizens.
Pofalla rejected the accusation that the chief of the BND, Gerhard Schindler, had pressured the government to loosen its interpretation of secrecy law. Citing documents among those exposed by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, Spiegel reported July 21 that the NSA lauded the BND for pushing the government to ease the implementation of the country's G-10 laws that determine when citizens can be subject to surveillance.
Data Transfers
Merkel's chief of staff also called "completely false" reports about mass data transfers to the NSA. German authorities approved two data transfers under an existing law, both of them concerning an unidentified German national who had been kidnapped, the top-level Merkel aide said.
"We've been trying for months to bring him home safely," Pofalla said. He said he would return to the parliamentary panel on Aug. 19 to answer questions more comprehensively.
The minister also reiterated Merkel's statement that the government would continue to seek answers from U.S. officials on the details of its mass-surveillance activity, especially the Prism data-mining program that was exposed last month.
Hans-Christian Stroebele, a Green Party lawmaker who sits on the intelligence panel and has criticized the government's response on the spy scandal as insufficient, came out of the session more satisfied with Pofalla's answers than previously.
"We learned quite a bit from him," Stroebele said. Still, he expressed "outrage" that Merkel's administration hadn't demanded that the Americans stop their Prism-related activity and that Pofalla wasn't able to clarify better what U.S. intelligence was doing on German soil.
Merkel, already easing into her summer vacation, has so far been unscathed by the criticism, with a Forsa poll yesterday showing her coalition consolidating its lead as the opposition Social Democrats lose ground.

Women & Power: Marina Mahathir
If you want to define fortitude, then my Aunty Leha was it. Throughout her 87 years, she endured the loss of her husband former Auditor-General Mohd Zain Ahmad and youngest son Zahari as well as seven serious operations. I can think of no stronger woman than her.
I've always thought that my belief that women are strong stems from growing up with Aunty. From my own childhood, Aunty was always there, directing everything. I used to spend the school holidays at my grandparents' home in KL and played almost every day with my cousins, Aunty's three sons. Being at Aunty's house meant all sorts of treats, from delicious cakes which we'd never seen in our little town of Alor Setar to books to going to see plays. Being a stalwart member of the Moral Re-Armament Association, Aunty was always quick to tell us off for less than exemplary behaviour.
Never in a bad way but always firmly.As we grew into adults and had our own families, Aunty was always the affectionate and encouraging aunt. I remember contemplating an act of rebellion once in protest at some bad treatment of women in a particular state. To my surprise, she was supportive. I think she just likes rebels. But otherwise she lavished love on her nieces and nephews and her grandnieces and nephews. She always remembers birthdays and I always got some gift from her whenever she's around.
Aunty also didn't like to be left out of anything, never mind that in the last few years she was wheelchair-bound. Once she was in hospital and seemed totally depressed and so was not recovering very well. Everyone was wondering what to do. Then Dad had an idea. He went and sat beside her and told her about every single conference and seminar coming up in KL. Sure enough, she recovered.
Another time I organised a mehndi (henna) party for her granddaughter who was getting married. It was a fun Bollywood party and we had planned dancing and games. We hadn't really planned to invite the granny generation but Aunty came anyway and although she couldn't participate in the dancing, she insisted in being included in the games.
When Dad had his first heart attack in 1989, our biggest worry was how to tell Aunty before anyone else did. The trouble was she couldn't be found because as always she was 'in orbit', going around town seeing somebody or other. We knew that if she was not told instantly, we would get a shelling ( and Aunty Leha was not averse to shelling people for any infringements of good behaviour). Luckily we found her soon enough and she came straightaway.
Perhaps the most difficult time for Aunty in recent years was the passing, from cancer, of her baby, her youngest son Zahari. Indeed it was tough for all of us who loved him but it must have been worse for her. Two years later she would still sign birthday cards to me from all her family, including her beloved 'Adek'.
My most enduring memory of Aunty is how generous she is with everyone, no matter what their background. Every open house or any event at her house was attended by all sorts of people, from every ethnicity and walk of life. Aunty was friends with everyone, from the Dalai Lama to the lowliest driver, and everyone was welcome. More than anyone, she taught us that it is good decent human beings who matter, not what race or religion they are.
I happened to be away when Aunty finally breathed her last. But I did see her before I left. She had grown uncharacteristically thin and weak, not the role model of aged female strength that my late frail mother-in-law was always holding up. But she was still alert; the first thing she asked was how my daughter was. Lying there in pain, she only thought of others. Typical Aunty Leha.
Rest in peace, reunited with Uncle Zain and Adek, Aunty. Al-fatihah.
By: Marina Mahathir

... Dirt Devil M084500V Vibe Quick Vac Bagless Upright Vacuum
Poor suction The actual sweeper seems to work ok, but the hose attachment has some suction but not enough to pick up things I think it should and not enough to make the power brush spin. I've checked everywhere I can for clogs, but I can't see anything. And there doesn't seem to be any way to check to hose itself for clogs. I've cleaned out the container and the filters, but there's still a problem.
Check the inlet down by the brush roll, make sure it is open, if it is then the hose itself must have a clog. If the hose comes off, drop something like a marble in one end and see it it comes out the other end, if it doesn't then you have a clog. ...

I have a new bag in, checked the hoses for clogs have the motor cover off showing motor runs. Problem is vacuum has no suction in hose area, cover off where bag is and the air blows out of filter. hoses are clean no blockage.
Have you checked the filter? Many vacuums have a filter under or behind the bag to keep dust and dirt out of the motor. If this gets clogged the motor can't get any suction. Also look for holes in the hose or in the small segment between hose and bag ... Vacuums

BUT WHO'S GOING TO DELIVER THE SHIPMENT OF DEMOCRACY THEN!?!? How can these good people get democracy if the US and French aren't willing to ship it over there, or the delivery times take too long. This also ranks among the absurd as we all know that without being given democracy from those who have democracy, democracy can never really be achieved.

Which pallets are better for the environment? Jerry Kay spoke to Daniel Imhoff, one of the authors of Paper or Plastic, Searching for Solutions to an Overpackaged World
To move products from one place to another, we use pallets. There are more than a billion pallets in service at a given time, and we'll need many more. Which pallets are better for the environment? This may be one example of where plastic is actually preferable.
Jerry Kay spoke to Daniel Imhoff, one of the authors of Paper or Plastic, Searching for Solutions to an Overpackaged World:
Imhoff says that a significant percentage of our wood harvested goes to making pallets. Often, wood pallets are only used once because they're susceptible to breakage and invasive insect species. Plastic pallets, which can also contain other materials, can be steam washed and used up to 70 times.
He stresses that plastic isn't always the best choice, but it should be looked into on a case-by-case basis.
You can learn more about Paper or Plastic by Daniel Imhoff and Roberto Carra, published by the University of California Press, on the press's website.

Every Sunday during the Profession of Faith, we stand and profess that "we believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church." These are what our tradition calls the Four Marks of the Church, the four defining characteristics of the Church that Christ instituted.
© Copyright 2003 Catholic Exchange
(Fr Augustine H.T. Tran attended seminary at the North American College in Rome, Italy and was ordained to the priesthood in 1998. He serves in the Archdiocese of Atlanta, and is currently in residence at St. John Catholic Church in McLean, Virginia, while he completes a Canon Law Degree at Catholic University of America in Washington, DC. He may be contacted via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.)
This weekend, we celebrate the birth of that Church, the institution of that Church by Christ through the sending of the Holy Spirit. Throughout the New Testament, St Paul calls the Church the body of Christ. Well, just as every living person has both a body and a soul, so, too, does the living Church of Christ have both a body and a soul. We, her members, comprise that physical body; and, as St Augustine and the Fathers of the Church consistently taught, her soul is the Holy Spirit. That's the gift that Christ gives to us today.
The importance of this gift is that it is the third person of the Holy Trinity living within the Church that makes her one, holy, catholic, and apostolic. The Church is one because the Holy Spirit unites us. Just as the Spirit is the eternal love that unites the eternal Father with the eternal Son in the eternal Godhead, so does the Holy Spirit unite all the members of the Church to each other. We receive Him at our Baptism; and those baptismal graces come to fulfillment at our Confirmation, where we become full, adult members of the Christian community and receive the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit: wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. Some of you may have just recently received that sacrament. Those gifts are what gave the Apostles the courage to preach the Good News of Jesus Christ, even unto martyrdom; and they're what give us the courage to follow in the footsteps of the Apostles, even unto our own martyrdom — perhaps not the martyrdom of death, at least not in this country, but the martyrdom of ridicule, the martyrdom of calumny, the martyrdom of ostracism from our peers, our co-workers, and maybe even our family members. But throughout that martyrdom, it is the Holy Spirit who keeps us united in the family of God, united in the love of God that is unending. That unity with the Communion of Saints is the unity for which we long as Christians.
The Church is holy because her founder, Jesus Christ, is holy and because her soul is the Holy Spirit. In other words, she is holy because she is divine. The Church is not merely a human institution. She is a divine institution, comprised of sinners, to be sure, but ultimately guided by the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Blessed Trinity. It's because of this divine nature that we have faith in her. It's because of this divine nature that she has the authority to teach in matters of faith and morals. It's because of this divine nature that St Ignatius of Loyola would say, "What I see as white, I will believe to be black if the hierarchical Church thus determines it. For we believe that between Christ our Lord, the Bridegroom, and the Church, His Spouse, there is the one same Spirit who governs and guides us for the salvation of our souls. For it is by the same Spirit and Lord of ours who gave the Ten Commandments that our Holy Mother Church is guided and governed" (Rules for thinking, judging, and feeling with the Church).
You see, one could believe 99% of what the Catholic Church teaches and still not be a Catholic. It could just be a coincidence. If one were Catholic because the Church just happens to agree with one, then that's not faith, at least not a faith in Jesus Christ and the Church that He instituted to guide us to Himself. It's nothing more than a prideful faith in one's own intellectual abilities. "I shall belong to the Church as long as she agrees with me," is not a statement of faith in the divinity of Christ; it's a statement of faith in my own divinity. If Jesus Christ is God and He sent the third person of the Blessed Trinity (who is also God) to guide His Church, then my world-view must conform to that of the Church's, if I wish it to be in conformity with that of God's. In other words, our Faith shapes and molds us, we do not shape and mold our Faith. This was what led St Thomas Aquinas to pray at his last Holy Communion, "I receive Thee, the price of my soul's redemption and the viaticum of my pilgrimage. All of my studies, my vigils and labors have been for love of Thee. Thee have I preached. Thee have I taught. Against Thee I have never spoken nor am I wedded to my own opinions. If I held anything which is untrue, I subject it to the judgment of the Holy Roman Church, in whose obedience I now pass from this life."
These men, St Augustine, St Ignatius of Loyola, St Thomas Aquinas, were not ignorant fools who blindly followed the bishop of Rome. They were some of the greatest minds in the history of Christendom, indeed, in the history of mankind. But they were also men of deep faith, which led them to humble themselves before the God of creation, who, in turn, sanctified them and glorified them. How we, the Church's members grow in holiness, and, hence, in happiness, is by conforming ourselves to the mind and will of our Lord and Savior as these great Saints and all the Saints of our tradition have done.
The Church is catholic, meaning universal, because Christ wants everyone to belong to His Church. He wants everyone to become a saint. This is the missionary work of the Church, to bring the Good News of Jesus Christ to the entire world. Between the Resurrection and Pentecost, the Apostles were afraid to evangelize. They hid in their houses because they had not yet received the Holy Spirit. But, immediately after the Holy Spirit came upon them, they began to preach to every nation in every tongue. That's the gift and the duty that Confirmation imparts to each one of us.
Between Baptism and Confirmation, most of us are too young, too immature, and, hence, not courageous enough to evangelize our faith; but all that changes at Confirmation. Some of you may remember that in the old rite of Confirmation the bishop would slap the confirmand on the cheek. Unfortunately, we no longer retain that tradition. But the point of that slap was not to reprimand, it was to remind the confirmand of the sufferings he would have to endure for the faith. It was meant to remind him that with Confirmation he became a soldier for Christ, a full-fledged member of the Church Militant; and as a full-fledged member of the Church Militant, it was his duty to witness to the faith, to be a martyr for the faith, no matter what form that martyrdom might take. It's in that martyrdom that we imitate the Faith of the Apostles…which brings us to the final mark of the Church.
The Church is apostolic because she was founded upon the Apostles. It was to the Apostles that Christ gave the authority to forgive sins, as we heard in today's gospel: "Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained" It was to the Apostles that Christ gave the charism of infallibility, that they might faithfully hand on the teachings of Christ, what we call the deposit of faith. That's what tradition is, from the Latin "traditio" meaning "handing over." We have a Sacra Traditio, a Sacred Tradition in the Church. That's not just human traditions. It's not just fallible men passing on their prejudices. It's sacred because it was commissioned by our Lord and Savior; and it's sacred because it was promised the guidance of the Holy Spirit; and that promise was passed down from the Apostles to their successors, our present day bishops who are in union with the bishop of Rome, the Vicar of Christ.
As we are reminded in the Rite of infant Baptism, "This is our faith. This is the faith of the [one, holy, catholic, and apostolic] Church. We are proud to profess it, in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Multi-Digit Decimal Numbers
Date: 09/07/2001 at 15:30:05 From: Tristan Subject: Reading multi digit negative decimal numbers I'm writing an essay on electrons and I have wound up with a number representing the lifetime of an electron charge. The problem I am having is actually reading the number because it starts with zeros and the remainder of the number is so long. If the number were only a few digits (like .007 or .0076, etc.) then it would seem simple, but the actual number in question is much longer and so even though I know it's still simple, I can't determine exactly how I should say it aloud. The number is: 0.0072973525220505560582620625237164 Without the first two zeros I would say the number is 7.2 nonillion, but since the 7 is in the thousandth's place, then the number I am getting is 7.2 decillion. The number itself is correct, so all I need to know is what to call it. I can't say it's seven thousand nonillionth's because that's the same as seven decillion, right? The more I look at the number the more impossible it looks. Please help! Thank you! Tris
Date: 09/07/2001 at 23:03:14 From: Doctor Peterson Subject: Re: reading multi digit negative decimal numbers Hi, Tris. I hope you don't mind my having fun with this question, because I think it illustrates some very useful points. My first reaction to this was, why would you want to read a number like this aloud? And in fact, that is the right question to start with. The purpose of your reading determines how to do it. Actually, there's another question to ask first: Are you sure the number is really as accurate as you have said? You have a lot of significant figures, so you'd better be able to justify them! I strongly suspect that the number ought to be something more like 0.007297. But let's assume it's a valid number. Why are you saying it aloud? If you're simply reading to yourself, you don't bother with it at all; you say "about seven thousandths" or "point zero zero seven dot dot dot" or even "(some number)." And if you're presenting your paper to an audience, you could probably do the same thing. (Well, the first two at least.) After all, why do you need all those digits? If your hearers are typing it into their calculators as you say it, they need the digits (and you'll want to dictate it digit by digit, "point zero zero seven two ...," so they can do so). But ordinarily, what's important is not the digits, but the size of the number; and with decimals, it's just the first few digits that count. Either of my first two suggestions will accomplish that. If your purpose is rather to impress them with the precision (and, you hope, the accuracy) of your number, you can add "and so on for 32 digits," or just show it on a screen and wait for applause. Now, you asked how to pronounce it as a fraction. I'll tell you, but with a caveat: of all the ways to say it, this communicates the least to your audience. It thoroughly hides the size of the number, and overwhelms people with details instead. It's impossible to copy down, and takes forever to say. Did you believe your teachers when they said to pronounce decimals this way? I think your example clearly shows why they were wrong (at least for long numbers like this). That's why I'm interested in your question. Okay. Let's write the number as a fraction: 0.0072973525220505560582620625237164 ------------------------------------ 1.0000000000000000000000000000000000 becomes 72 973 525 220 505 560 582 620 625 237 164 ---------------------------------------------- 10 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 The numerator (in the American system) is about 72 nonillion; the denominator is 10 decillion. So the fraction is 72 nonillion, 973 octillion, 525 septillion, 220 sextillion, 505 quintillion, 560 quadrillion, 582 trillion, 620 billion, 625 million, 237 thousand, 164 ten-decillionths. Now, in a scientific context, you wouldn't have written the number this way in the first place; you'd use (surprise!) scientific notation: 7.2973525220505560582620625237164 * 10^-3 This, of course, deals with all the issues I've raised; that's what it's for. Saying it this way, we can say as many digits as we like without obscuring the size of the number. Still, I wouldn't say the fractional part in fractional terms, because there's no need. I'll make one final comment: in writing such a precise number, it's good to give the reader a way to keep track of the digits, and the standard way is to insert spaces: 0.007 297 352 522 050 556 058 262 062 523 716 4 Notice that the groups of three start at the decimal; that's a clue that we don't bother to read such a number as a fraction, since this spacing doesn't help in pronouncing the numerator.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal health experts are recommending changes to safety restrictions on former blockbuster diabetes pill Avandia, in light of a new analysis suggesting that the drug may not increase the risk of heart attack as previously believed.
A majority of Food and Drug Administration advisers voted Thursday to modify or remove measures that currently limit patient access to GlaxoSmithKline's Avandia. Among other requirements, patients currently must sign a waiver that they understand the drug's risks before getting a prescription.
The panel ruling is a belated victory for British drugmaker Glaxo after more than a half-decade defending the safety of its product, which was once the best-selling diabetes drug in the world. Sales began plummeting in 2007 after researchers first raised questions about possible links to heart attack. After three years of debate, the FDA limited access to the drug in 2010 and European regulators banned the pill altogether.
Of the panel's 26 experts, 13 voted to modify safety restrictions on Avandia while seven voted to remove them entirely. Five panelists voted to keep the measures in place without any changes, while one panelist voted to withdraw Avandia completely.
The vote is a recommendation to the FDA and is not binding.
The FDA convened this week's two-day meeting to consider a new analysis of Avandia's cardiovascular safety performed by Duke University's Clinical Research Institute.
Researchers there reexamined the lone GlaxoSmithKline PLC study specifically designed to measure Avandia's heart risks. The original study's results have been called into question since they were first released in 2009, due to design flaws and inconsistent reporting of heart attacks. Panelists said the reanalysis bolstered their confidence that Avandia does not increase the risk of heart attack more than older diabetes medicines.
"I'm considerably reassured, in light of the reanalysis, that the magnitude of risk we're talking about here is not very great," said Dr. Dale Hammerschmidt of the University of Minnesota, who voted to modify the safety limits.
Under the FDA's current risk-evaluation management strategy, or REMS, Avandia can only be dispensed by specially pharmacies. Like patients, physicians must sign a waiver stating that they understand the drug's risks and that their patients have not responded to any other diabetes medications. Those requirements have essentially cratered prescriptions for the drug. Just 3,000 people in the U.S. are currently taking Avandia, down from 250,000 in 2010. Many panelists said they now believe the restrictions are too severe.
"I believe relaxing the REMS would put this on a more even playing field with other drugs with similar risks," said Dr. Elaine Morrato, of the University of Colorado.
Most panelists said some restrictions are still warranted, such as patient brochures discussing the drug's risks. Panelists also favored registering patients to track their health while on Avandia.
Glaxo's chief medical officer said in a statement: "We continue to believe that Avandia is a safe and effective treatment option for type 2 diabetes."
But even if regulators relax limits on Avandia, it's highly unlikely the drug will regain its blockbuster status.
"It's very difficult to rehabilitate a drug, any drug, after it's been through a process like this," said Rebecca Killion, the panel's patient representative.
This week's meeting marked the third time that the FDA assembled its experts to answer a seemingly basic question: Does Avandia increase the risk of heart attacks? A firm answer has proved elusive, in part because patients with diabetes are already predisposed to heart problems. That makes it extremely difficult to tell which heart attacks are drug-related and which are simply a result of the underlying disease.
The initial concerns about Avandia came from outside researchers who pooled thousands of reports of heart attack and stroke from dozens of unrelated studies. One of these so-called meta-analyses combined 42 studies and appeared to show a higher risk of heart attack among patients taking Avandia compared to other diabetes drugs.
The FDA added a boxed warning about heart attack risks to Avandia in 2007, while noting the shortcomings of the analysis that produced the concern. FDA leadership generally argues that mixing data from multiple studies can lead to misleading trends and conclusions. The agency tries to base its decisions on head-to-head controlled clinical trials, which most medical experts consider the gold standard of research.
That has focused the agency's attention on the RECORD trial, a six-year study of 4,400 patients that compared heart attack rates in patients taking Avandia versus metformin and sulphonylurea, a standard drug combination for diabetics. The initial results reported by Glaxo in 2009 showed no signal for heart attacks, but those findings have been questioned because of missing data and other issues.
Under instructions from the FDA, Glaxo hired Duke University to reanalyze the RECORD study, reviewing each report of heart attack or stroke at a patient-by-patient level. Duke's findings matched Glaxo's initial conclusion: Avandia did not appear to increase the risk of heart attack.
At least one FDA reviewer said this week that Duke's review was not truly independent, since the university was paid $3 million by Glaxo and relied on records provided by the drugmaker.
FDA leadership said there was no evidence of "systematic or intentional manipulation" of the RECORD reevaluation. The agency's panelists almost uniformly backed that conclusion.

Morrison Named Jo Murphy Chair, Director of Center for International EducationOct. 2, 2006
- Law professor to succeed Bill Mitchell as head of Baylor's international programs -
by Lori Fogleman, director of media relations, (254) 710-6275
Dr. Naymond Keathley, senior vice provost at Baylor University, has announced that Michael D. Morrison, The William J. Boswell Professor of Law at Baylor Law School, will succeed Dr. William A. Mitchell as The Jo Murphy Chair in International Education and director of the Center for International Education (CIE) at Baylor, effective Feb. 1, 2007.
A Baylor faculty member since 1993, Mitchell has served as CIE director for the past six years. Under his leadership, Baylor increased the number of students studying abroad from 575 in 2000-01 to 855 in 2005-06, and expanded the number of exchange and study abroad programs to nearly 60 programs in 26 countries. Even in the face of world events, the number of international students attending Baylor, under Mitchell, remained steady, while the diversity of the students' home countries grew to 76.
"Dr. Mitchell has made significant contributions to Baylor in the area of international education, and we are grateful for his leadership in expanding our exchange and study abroad programs for students, faculty and staff, while providing a rich experience for international students who study at Baylor," Keathley said. "Bill strengthened Baylor's tradition of 'bringing the world to Baylor and sending Baylor to the world' through the Center for International Education and as part of the global education initiative in Baylor 2012, and we look forward to his continued service to Baylor."
"International education has faced enormous challenges over the past six years, but we have managed to continue improving Baylor's global opportunities for students, faculty and staff in terms of both quality of programs and quantity of choices," Mitchell said. "It has been a pleasure to work with thousands of students, senior administration, deans, department heads, area program directors, faculty and the CIE staff. As we continue to prepare our students for worldwide leadership, it is imperative that we teach them with an international study component that places them globally with the language, culture, knowledge base and character to continue in Baylor's finest traditions. I wish Mike Morrison the very best, and I am certain that international education at Baylor will continue to flourish."
Beginning next year, Mitchell will focus his research on the impact of colonialism in the West African region of Francophone Africa. Mitchell also will continue his research with the Center for Democracy and Diplomacy, which Mitchell helped establish in 2005 at the University of Dohuk in northern Iraq.
Morrison has been a member of the Baylor Law School faculty since 1977 and was designated an Outstanding Professor in 1997. He served two terms as Mayor of Waco from 1996-2000, during which he represented Waco nationally and internationally. He most recently served as interim chief of staff for former Interim President Bill Underwood and current Baylor President John M. Lilley.
"Professor Morrison's expertise in the area of immigration law and in international legal studies programs, his world experience and nearly 30 years as a highly respected faculty member and effective administrator at Baylor, as well as his service as Mayor of Waco, uniquely equip him to take our international programs to the next level," Lilley said.
"I will continue to build on the terrific foundation laid by John Belew, Jim Vardaman and Bill Mitchell, each of whom, in turn, placed their own unique mark on our international programs but who collectively have placed it on the path of achieving Baylor's 2012 goals for our resident and international students," Morrison said. "While it will be a very steep learning curve, Bill has been most generous with his time, and I look forward to working closely with him during the next several months as I prepare for this undertaking. I am particularly looking forward to working with the faculty and staff whose efforts have created such a rich diversity of international opportunities for our students."
A member of Phi Beta Kappa, Morrison earned a degree in psychology with high honors from the University of Oklahoma in 1971. He received his law degree from Oklahoma as the Outstanding Law Student for 1974 by the Oklahoma Bar Association. He served as Note Editor of the Oklahoma Law Review and was elected to membership in the Order of the Coif. He is admitted to practice in Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas, as well as the United States Supreme Court and the federal courts of Texas and Oklahoma. He has been recognized by his peers with election as a fellow of both the Texas and the American Bar Foundations.
The Center for International Education serves as the international academic focus for the Baylor campus. The center consists of both International Academic Area Studies and the International Student and Scholar Services. Area studies directors lead the academic programs in the following areas: Asian Studies, African Studies, Latin American Studies, Middle East Studies, Slavic and East European Studies, and Global Christian Ventures. Courses are available for students who are pursuing these studies as majors, minors and for elective credit.
Mitchell received his bachelor's degree from East Texas State University, now Texas A&M-Commerce, followed by a master's degree from UCLA and his doctorate from the University of Illinois. In addition, he is a graduate of the Air War College, Air Command and Staff College, and the Industrial College of the Armed Services.
Before joining the Baylor faculty, Mitchell led a distinguished 34-year military career, in which he served in both the Vietnam and Gulf Wars and commanded bases in Incirlik and Izmir, Turkey. His military career also launched his academic career with his first of several appointments at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado from 1970-86 and then as professor of national security affairs at the Air War College from 1986-88 and from 1991-92.
During his 14 years at Baylor, Mitchell has taught a wide range of multidisciplinary courses, such as geography, political science, national security and ethnopolitical conflict, and regional courses on the Middle East, including instruction in Turkish language.
Mitchell's primary research has focused on emergency response to earthquakes, for which he has traveled to Turkey numerous times as part of the disaster response teams of the National Science Foundation's Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) and the Multidisciplinary Center for Earthquake Engineering (MCEER).
From 2003-05, Mitchell led three different Baylor faculty delegations to Iraq to aid in the assessment and rebuilding of Iraqi higher education following the Saddam Hussein regime. The programs culminated with the inauguration of the Center for Diplomacy and Democracy at the University of Dohuk in northern Iraq in December 2005. His work in Iraq has been featured often by the media, including appearances on CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports in 2003 and Fox News in 2005.
Mitchell has published in numerous journals, including Middle East Journal, Journal of African and Asian Studies, Professional Geographer, Journal of Earthquake Engineering, Journal of Geography and Demokratizatsiya. He also is the author of several books and chapters, such as The Republic of Turkey and Earthquake Disaster Management in 2004 and "Corruption in Construction: Turkish Homeowners Demand and End to Earthquake Devastation in Transparency International's 2005 Global Corruption Report with Baylor alum Justin Page.
Mitchell is the recipient of several awards, including the United States Legion of Merit, the Bronze Star, and the Humanitarian Award for Kurdish Relief Efforts, the Humanitarian Award for Armenian Earthquake Relief, and the Air Force Special Research Award for Intercultural Education.
Mitchell chairs the oversight committee of the Glennis McCrary Goodrich Scholarship, which was launched in 2003 and annually awards about $75,000 for study abroad to 45 Baylor students. One of the overall goals, Mitchell said, is to increase the percentage of Baylor students studying abroad to 30 percent of each graduating class by the year 2012.
