San Diego For many years, those all-purpose letters, "Etc.," served Anthony W. "Tony" DeSio very well. He built Mail Boxes Etc. into a highly successful national chain that managed to compete with the post office and also dodge a financial bullet: It was acquired by a company that collapsed in ignominy, but the San Diego franchiser slunk out of the slough and wound up with one of the nation's few AAA-rated companies as its parent, the superbly managed United Parcel Service (UPS).
But the second time, Tony DeSio, along with another group of former Mail Boxes Etc. investors, couldn't carry the mail. Three months ago, Image Arts Etc. -- which claimed it could put a digital photo on almost anything -- filed for Chapter 7 liquidation bankruptcy in San Diego.
There's a final insult: More than 90 percent of domestic Mail Boxes Etc. franchisees are changing their names to The UPS Store.
There was a logic behind the use of the word "Etc." at both DeSio-directed companies. In 1981, DeSio became president of a one-year-old Carlsbad company, U.S. Mail Boxes. In 1986, the name was changed to Mail Boxes Etc. because the company offered a variety of services besides mail boxes: wrapping and mailing packages, copy and fax machines, teleconferencing equipment, and the like. DeSio boasted to potential franchisees that a store was a group of profit centers under one roof -- and that's one reason the company became one of the fastest-growing franchisers in the U.S.
In 1999, DeSio launched a company that also offered potential franchisees diverse profit centers within a store. This one was based on digital photography and wide-format printing. Within each store were a frame shop, art gallery, sign shop, and portrait studio. Again, the "Etc." in Image Arts Etc. was an attempt to bundle up the various profit centers in a snappy name.
"It was tough picking a name for it," says San Diegan Blaine Roberts, who was chief executive officer until right before the Chapter 7 filing in May. "The stores had a nice combination of profit centers." Also, the word "Etc." on the end, as well as the participation of DeSio, helped attract franchisees who knew about the success of Mail Boxes Etc. Image Arts Etc. also expected to do a land-office business online, mainly through Home Shopping Network.
According to Blaine Roberts, DeSio plunked in about $600,000. Eastman Kodak put in $2 million, with the understanding that it would be an exclusive supplier of certain media and digital-imaging equipment. Other former Mail Boxes Etc. investors were Norman Roberts, La Jolla investment banker and Blaine's father, $250,000; and Blaine Roberts, $100,000. Venture capitalist Michael Dooling, a former chairman of Mail Boxes Etc., also put money in the pot.
"We went through two rounds of venture capital and needed one more round of $3 million," says Blaine Roberts. But venture capital had dried up drastically since the halcyon days of the late 1990s, and little was available.
"They needed a million dollars to last them to get into the black," and more beyond that, says Norman Roberts. "I didn't want to give them a million dollars. They couldn't raise it, so they went into Chapter 7. They sold the inventory and everything; it is a done deal."
The company's goal was to have 1000 franchisees by 2005, but at the end, it had 46 franchisees and 35 stores open. As Image Arts Etc. sunk, former franchisees sued the company, DeSio, Blaine Roberts, and others. It was settled out of court. Only two months before the bankruptcy filing, the company lost $10,000 when an employee stole software.
Blaine Roberts says that most stores are now running on their own, and that's partly a blessing, because there is no franchiser to which to pay fees.
In fact, Blaine Roberts's wife and sister, Barbara and Laurie Roberts, respectively, still run an Image Arts Etc. store on India Street. "We're operating without the help of a corporate parent and doing very well," says Barbara Roberts.
"Nobody lost a lot of money, but suppliers did," says Norman Roberts. Bankruptcy records show that more than 100 creditors -- largely suppliers -- filed claims for $1.7 million. The company's assets are $819,000. "We have an ongoing investigation into the debtors' financial affairs and conduct," says Gregory A. Akers, bankruptcy trustee.
San Diego's OAP Packaging is owed $29,500, says co-owner Jim Janney. "We were selling boxes for them to ship stuff with online. They did not use them and they did not pay," he says.
DeSio, who could not be reached for comment, has experienced spectacular ups and downs. Mail Boxes Etc. was a rapidly growing franchiser when it made the ghastly mistake in mid-1997 of selling itself to U.S. Office Products Co., then run by a Washington, D.C., entrepreneur, Jonathan Ledecky, who touted his "roll up" concept -- that is, buying up small companies as fast as possible. That is almost always a recipe for disaster, but Wall Street keeps touting the idea because investment bankers pile up so much in fees.
By the end of 1997, U.S. Office Products had gobbled up 206 companies -- 97 in 1997 alone. As the stock cratered, Mail Boxes Etc. investors holding the parent's stock wondered if they would go right down the toilet, too. In 1998, U.S. Office Products split itself into five publicly traded companies and bought back 28 percent of its stock. The buyback helped Mail Boxes Etc. investors get some cash for their company.
U.S. Office Products Co. went bankrupt in 2001, right about the time it was selling Mail Boxes Etc. to United Parcel Service for $267 million. Just recently, U.S. Office Products, also known as BRM Holdings, chalked up a dubious achievement: On July 23, the stock hit a 52-week high of half a cent (0.005). Two days later, the stock hit a 52-week low of zero (0.000). The company lost $804.1 million through its last nine months.
Ledecky left U.S. Office Products at the time of the split-up. He still preaches roll-up, rapid-fire acquisitions. He got involved in a notorious affair: U.S. Technologies. When former CIA and FBI head William Webster was named to lead the newly created accounting oversight board last year, critics immediately noted that Webster was a director of U.S. Technologies, whose accounting turned out to be very questionable.
Webster backed away from the federal accounting post. Said James J. Cramer on TheStreet.com, "U.S. Technologies is an awful company, an Internet incubator roll-up that was controlled by none other than the notorious Jon Ledecky."
But Mail Boxes Etc. escaped the opprobrium. In 2001, as U.S. Office Products was going into bankruptcy, Mail Boxes Etc. was sold for $200 million to United Parcel Service, which had had a minority stake in the company. (For those curious about the company's capacity, in the main, the UPS Store utilizes UPS and the post office for shipping.)
The company that Tony DeSio nurtured is booming. It now has 4500 franchisees worldwide, about 3400 of them in the U.S. The company expects to have 5000 franchisees in the U.S. by 2007 -- even without an "Etc." in the name.
But Image Arts Etc. investors were wiped out, says Blaine Roberts.

Venturing TRUST Award medal.
The Venturing TRUST Award is the religious expert-level award in Venturing. Venturers earning the TRUST Award will learn more about themselves, their communities, their religion and culture, as well as those of others.
This award focuses chiefly on the principles of religion, community, and tolerance. Its purpose is to provide a pathway for personal development in the forms of service and devotion to God. Once earned, the Venturer will be recognized as not only one who understands others, but who also looks out for them and their needs.
After completion of the TRUST Award, the medal may be awarded at a crew recognition ceremony (similar to a Boy Scout Court of Honor), organized by the youth Vice President - Administration. This award may be presented more than once; it may be awarded again at a school or other venues to promote awareness within the community.
TRUST is an acronym that stands for Tending your beliefs/faith, Respecting the beliefs of others, Understanding other cultures, Serving your community, and Transforming our society; one of each corresponds to the five sections of requirements.

Austria, Day 5 – Salzburg to Hallstatt
Quick Links to : Gruner Baum Hotel Hallstatt Bahnhst Hallstatt Lahn Welter Beblick Heritage View Photo Spot
Left our hotel by pre booked taxi to Salzburg Hbf for our 11:12 a.m. InterCity (IC) train to Hallstatt requiring a change to a Regional Express (REX) train at Attnang Puchheim. Advanced tickets were purchased through OBB at €50.20 for 2 persons. For a further €6, we booked 2 seats on the IC train. Again, there was no option for seat selection. There is only one stop at Vocklabruck from Salzburg to Attnang Puchheim. This segment takes 46 minutes. You only purchase 1 ticket from Salzburg to Hallstatt not 2 separate segment tickets.
At Attnang Puchheim, the REX train will be waiting for your connection to Hallstatt. You do need to hurry as you have about 11 minutes to do so. A change of platform is required and this is done through the underground bypass. If you originated from Salzburg, the train to Hallstatt will be heading the opposite direction, so don't be confused. On REX trains, it's free seating and toilet facilities are available.
The rather simplistic OBB on-line train ticket. From Salzburg Hbf to Hallstatt with a train change at Attnang Puchheim.
This is the seat reservation ticket. Has more details than the ticket itself. Coach 19, seats 105 & 106.
Unlike Railjet, seats in OBB IC & REX trains are 6 seats to a cabin basis.
Train route from Salzburg Hbf to Hallstatt Bahnhst with a change of train at Attnang Puchheim.
From Attnag Puchheim, there will be about 10 stops to Hallstatt. So observe the stop/station signboard. It will take 1 hour 24 minutes to reach Hallstat train stop (Hallstatt Bahnhst). The train stop is just that, a stop with a stretch of platform without shelter.
There's a small 'office' at the end of the platform but looks deserted. There seems to be no ticket machine or counter. Those requiring return or onwards ticket, better buy them at your originating station.
Walk pass the office turn right and walk down 50m to the nearby jetty where a waiting boat will take you across the lake to Hallstatt town (Hallstatt Markt) boat jetty. The one way trip cost €2.40 and you pay on board. There will always be a boat waiting for the train. The boat will arrive earlier before the train arrival for departing passengers.

Once you are on the boat and nearing Hallstatt town ferry stop (Hallstatt Markt), you will be awe by the charm of this small township. It's a short 10 minutes boat ride and you would want to take as many photos to cherish later on. What you used to see on postcards, screen savers and calendars is now right in-front of you.
Hallstatt as you approach by boat.

We've made booking at Hotel Gruner Baum which is a short distance from the jetty. Alighting the boat, walk straight about 45m turn left and another 45m to your left is the hotel. We were given room 106 on the first floor facing the town square. What a perfect room with a perfect view. The room itself is super spacious with up-scale amenities.

After a couple hour's rest, with the drizzle showing no sign of stopping, armed with umbrellas, we ventured Hallstatt's square and it's vicinity.
Austria, Day 6 – Hallstatt
With the light drizzle continuing on-and-off and tomorrow we'll be leaving for Cesky Krumlov, we set to walk from our hotel to Hallstatt Lahn where the bus stop, 2nd jetty & public car parking are located. It's a 650m, 10 minutes brisk walk. As you walk, on your left is the lake and on your right are houses built on the hillside. Charming scenery as can be seen from the following photos.
Once you reached this small flower round-about, you've reached Hallstatt Lahn. Those taking public transport and inter-city shuttle, will embark and disembark here. Private and public vehicles are not allowed to enter Hallstatt town proper. If you drive, you will have to park your vehicle at the paid public parking area further up. Hallstatt town do have van shuttle service to take you to your hotel in Hallstatt town proper but you have to make prior arrangement with your hotel.

Within 5 minutes walking distance from the bus stop, is the funicular station up to the hilltop restaurant and a further walk (quite a distance really), to the salt mine. You buy your funicular ticket and/or the salt mine ticket here. A return funicular ticket cost €13 and we only choose to go up to the viewing platform below the restaurant. After you exit the funicular, walk straight and to your right take the elevator up the panoramic bridge. Then make your way to the platform just below the restaurant. It's called the Welterbeblick world heritage view.
The 'V'-shaped steel platform protrudes from the mountain side 360 meters above Hallstatt. The structure weighs about 200 tons and 60 cubic meters of concrete were used as counterweight to make the platform a secure "floating" platform. Anyone venturing onto the platform will be rewarded with a spectacular and panoramic view of Hallstatt and it's World Heritage region.

Encourage Students to Read with E-Reader iPad Apps
Encourage students to read, using classroom iPads and a good e-reader app. E-reader apps for iPad support many e-book formats, and e-books are easily found many for free, or low cost especially literary classics that are no longer copyrighted.
E-books can be read on the iPad using your choice of a variety of e-reading apps. Each app has a unique set of features and often its own store for buying the books. Compare them and select the one that suits your classroom needs.
iBooks e-reader app for iPad
iBooks is the native e-reading app for the iPad and the most popular book-reading app for users of any Apple iOS device. It's designed specifically for iOS use and cannot be used on other platforms. One of the app's strengths is that it's the only one on the iPad that has a built-in bookstore for browsing and in-app ordering of books.
In most cases, you can download samples to read before buying the book. To be fair, some of the other major e-reading apps had in-app purchasing in earlier versions; they were required to remove it from their iPad versions.
iBooks has improved steadily with new releases and is a solid choice for reading on the iPad. The capabilities to change color schemes, increase and decrease font sizes, keep notes, annotate text, and more have made iBooks the standard e-reading app on the iPad.
Kindle reader app for iPad
Amazon offers an e-reading app the Kindle app that can be used on other devices. Amazon has the advantage of offering the largest selection of paid e-books available, with more than a million titles in its inventory. Download the free Kindle app to your iPad, and when you purchase an e-book on Amazon.com, you have the option of downloading it to the Kindle app on your iPad.
Unlike some e-reader apps for iPad, using the Kindle app, you can also purchase hundreds of newspapers and magazines and download them to your iPad.
The Kindle app is available on a wide variety of devices, including Android devices, Windows Phones, iPhones, Windows PCs, and Mac PCs. In addition, the Kindle's WhisperSync feature saves your last page read, bookmarks, and notes so that you can pick up any other device and synchronize with where you left off on another device. Amazon also offers free samples for download so you can review books before buying them.
Nook reader app for iPad
Barnes & Noble offers an e-reading app called Nook that can be used on iOS and Android devices. Barnes & Noble created the Nook app to promote and bolster its sales of e-books.
Barnes & Noble offers a large selection of paid and free e-books, as well as magazines and newspapers. The free Nook app is also available for your Mac, PC, and smartphones, and it syncs your reading status between devices. Unfortunately, B&N hasn't yet found a way to deliver a hot cup of coffee and pastry with the book.
Kobo reader app for iPad
Kobo e-reading app shares many features with other e-reading apps. You can purchase books from Kobo's online store; it has apps for several devices (including the iPad and iPhone); the app synchronizes your account between your devices. You also can change text size, add notes, annotate text, and more.
What really distinguishes Kobo from other e-reading apps, though, is its Reading Life feature. Reading Life is an example of a new trend called social reading. You're probably familiar with social networking possibly the most powerful phenomenon sweeping the Internet and it has reached the world of reading.
You may think of reading as a rather solitary activity, but book clubs have been around for a long time. Book club members meet in someone's living room and, over a drink and some snacks, discuss a book everyone has read.
The advent of social reading is born out of book clubs . . . except in a social reading club, you can meet any time of day you want, at any place you happen to be, and discuss books with countless readers from all across the planet. You just have to bring your own tea and snacks.
Kobo is one of a new generation of e-reading apps that is moving the social networking experience into the realm of book reading. Tap the cover of any book in your library and let your friends on Facebook and Twitter know what you're reading. Select any text in the book and then post and share it along with your comments on your social networking sites.
The Kobo Pulse is a spherical icon at the bottom of each page in the book. It grows and gets darker on pages that have a lot of activity. Tap the Kobo Pulse to get the following information:
Who is currently reading the book.
Any comments that have been left.
How many people have liked the book.
In addition, you can add comments of your own or reply to other comments.
Tap the top menu bar on your Kobo home screen or bookshelf to reveal the Reading Life icon. Tap it to explore statistics about your reading. Find out how long you have been reading, the average pages per hour, time you take to read a book, and more. Sign up with your Facebook account and see what your Facebook friends have been reading and recommending.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Ohio Supreme Court on Wednesday suspended for one year the law license of an attorney whose emails to Jim Tressel triggered an ongoing scandal and NCAA investigation that cost the football coach his job at Ohio State University.
At issue was whether Columbus attorney Christopher Cicero violated professional rules of conduct that prohibit revealing information from meetings with a client or a prospective client.
The 5-2 court decision followed the recommendation of a disciplinary board that argued Cicero wrongly discussed interviews with tattoo parlor owner Edward Rife, a potential client. However, the court overruled the board's recommendation for a six-month suspension.
Cicero sent emails to Tressel in April 2010, warning him that players were selling memorabilia or trading them for tattoos. The email traffic sparked the scandal and ended Tressel's Ohio State tenure.
An NCAA investigation also led to a bowl ban this year, reductions in scholarships and the loss of Ohio State's $389,000 share of the Big Ten bowl pot a year ago. The entire 2010 season also was vacated.
Ohio State just completed a 12-0 season and is ranked No. 4 in the AP poll.
Justice Judith Lanzinger said the case went to the heart of the importance of confidentiality between a prospective client and an attorney.
"Prospective clients trust that their confidences will be protected when they engage in an initial consultation with an attorney," Lanzinger wrote. "Cicero's almost immediate dissemination of the detailed information that Rife provided on April 15 directly violated that trust."
Justices Evelyn Lundberg Stratton and Terrence O'Donnell dissented, saying they would have imposed a six-month suspension.
"Cicero's intentions were not for personal aggrandizement or personal gain, as found by the majority, but were to alert the coach about misconduct by his players that could affect the team," Stratton wrote.
"His request that such information be held confidential does not support the notion that he was trying to seek fame," she said.
Cicero's lawyer said he was disappointed with the decision, saying he and his client had considered even a six-month suspension "a little harsh."
"We ended up losing for a year a really, really great lawyer who practices in a difficult area — felony criminal law," said attorney John Gonzales.
He didn't know Cicero's plans for the year, adding they hadn't expected the decision so soon.
Cicero met with Rife on April 2, 2010, according to court documents, and again 13 days later to discuss whether Cicero would represent him in a federal drug trafficking case, according to a complaint against him by the Disciplinary Counsel of the Ohio Supreme Court.
Cicero, an Ohio State football player in the early 1980s, denied meeting with Rife on April 2. He said the two did meet on April 15, 2010, with the goal of confirming that Rife's partner, a former client of Cicero, wasn't involved with drug dealing or memorabilia sales.
Rife's house had been raided April 1 by federal drug investigators and Cicero wanted to know if Joseph Epling, his client and Rife's business partner, was involved in the case.
"Eddie Rife was never going to be my client in this case at all," Cicero told a three-member disciplinary panel at the Ohio Supreme Court last year. "I saw him as an ally and resource for Mr. Epling. That's how I viewed Mr. Rife's purpose in my office."
Rife pleaded guilty to drug trafficking and money laundering last year and was sentenced to three years in prison.
It was emails Cicero sent to Tressel in April 2010, warning him that players were selling memorabilia or trading them for tattoos, that helped launch the scandal.
In those emails, Cicero seemed to make it clear that he may have taken on Rife as a client.
"If he retains me, and he may, I will try to get these items back," Cicero wrote in an April 16, 2010, email.
"I have to sit tight and wait to see if he retains me, but at least he came in last night to do a face to face with me," Cicero wrote later that day.
Cicero and his attorneys argued the emails sent to Tressel were only meant to warn the coach about his players' actions and shouldn't be read as a breach of confidentiality, since —they argued — Rife was not a client.
Ohio's legal conduct rules generally prohibit attorneys from divulging any information they received from someone who might be a prospective client.
News of the memorabilia sales emerged in December 2010. In March 2011, the university discovered that Tressel had known about the sales since the previous April and said nothing. That was a violation of both NCAA rules and Tressel's contract, which required the prompt reporting of any knowledge of such player infractions. Tressel resigned under pressure in May 2011.

Earlier this week, former National Security Adviser Jim Jones was promoting "a type of Marshall Plan for emerging democratic states like Egypt." The White House has now stated that in his speech on the Middle East this morning, President Obama will announce a new foreign aid package for Egypt.
Egypt's financial situation is undeniably dire. As David P. Goldman noted two weeks ago in the Asia Times, "Egypt is running out of food and, more gradually, running out of money with which to buy it. . . Egypt imports half its wheat, and the collapse of its external credit means starvation." The Egyptian revolution has driven away tourists, while the Libyan one has cut remittances from Egyptians working there. Goldman calculates that Egypt lost $13 billion in foreign exchange reserves in the first quarter of 2011 alone.
But the idea of a 'mini-Marshall Plan' for Egypt is still a bad one. It calls to mind the President's proclamation in January of a "Sputnik moment" for education: the administration likes to conceive of itself as forward-looking, but has a curious addiction to concepts and names derived from the early Cold War, perhaps because it is actually stuck in the past. On Goldman's figures, the amounts the administration is talking about – $1 billion in debt forgiveness, and $1 billion in loan guarantees – will be swallowed up by the broader collapse of the Egyptian economy. In practice, the Administration's plan is not enough to matter, but enough to create the false impression that the U.S. can simply ride to the rescue of the Egyptian economy.
More broadly, the idea relies on an analogy with the Marshall Plan that is as tired as it is wrong-headed. The Marshall Plan gave dollars to the advanced economies of Western Europe that had been devastated by the Second World War so that they could buy U.S. goods to rebuild their factories and restart the normal flow of trade. Contrary to popular myth, it was not a U.S.-led effort to rebuild entire countries, and it was certainly not what the White House is proposing, i.e. debt forgiveness on the one hand and more loans on the other.
Absolutely none of the conditions that conduced to the success of the Marshall Plan are present in Egypt, which is a poorly-governed, corrupt, ill-educated country with a backwards economy and a political system that is trending strongly towards an alliance of military authoritarians and radical Salafis. The Marshall Plan does indeed show that, given good domestic governance, certain kinds of U.S. assistance can work. But the Marshall Plan was not a hand-out: it was conditioned in many ways, it was predicated on a shared acceptance of democracy and economic freedom, and it rested on the competent administration of Europeans.
If the President wants to apply that Marshall Plan precedent, he might begin by pointing out that these lessons also apply to Egypt, and indeed the entire Middle East: absent fundamental, sustained, serious efforts at political, economic, and administrative reform, U.S. aid cannot, and will not, save them.

Aggression and SeroquelPatientsVille
Aggression Symptoms and Causes
Caring for someone who has Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be stressful and overwhelming. It's important to take care of yourself. Ask for and accept help.
Talk to the doctor. Find out what treatments might help control symptoms or address behavior problems. Find a support group. Others who have "been there" may be able to help and will understand.
If there are times of day that the person is less confused or more cooperative, take advantage of that in daily routines. Consider using adult day care or respite services. These offer a break with the peace of mind that the patient is being taken care of. Begin to plan for the future. This may include

City eyes expansion south to airport
--Annexation should wait for regional plan, argues Leduc County manager
Gordon Kent, With files from Scott McKeen, The Edmonton Journal
Published: 6:13 am July 22, 2008
Edmonton has quietly reopened the controversial annexation issue with a move to take over a large chunk of Leduc County that includes the Edmonton International Airport.
City councillors authorized staff to start informal annexation negotiations with the county and other interested groups following a private meeting last month to discuss the idea.
According to a confidential city report obtained by The Journal, south-central Edmonton needs more room to grow because it doesn't have a 30-year supply of land.

If your nights are that cold you will need quite a few bees in there to keep the brood covered. Because you are making up the nucs from hives and the brood, at first at least, may not be the best shape for the design of the nuc, you'll need the bees that are on the combs when you make them, plus maybe a shake from another comb. Later in the season when things are warmer you need not be quite so fussy.
What I do is gauge it by the brood comb, a comb with only a small circular patch of brood will not need as many bees as one with a full comb of brood.

An attempt to correct a manipulated image.
In its last edition, Duly Noted called attention to the deformations surrounding the granting of international awards. The case of Obama's Nobel Peace Prize and Time's Man of the Year played a central role. These illustrated the exploitation of the seeming impartiality of honors given to whip up legitimacy and to lend moral capital for tainted agendas.
Hot air from a global platform confirms the charge in another recent case. The attempt is energized by distortions presented under the cloak of objectivity to make an otherwise earth-bound balloon rise. The story in question is of the European Union being awarded a Nobel Prize.
Officially, there is a justification for the honor. The generous Committee tells that it acts because the EU has kept Europe at peace. Thereby a distortion of history is exploited to justify the choice. The fib causes aches in the brain – if turned on and under power.
To begin, a confession. Regardless of what might be insinuated from the above and by what follows, your correspondent is in favor of unity in "Europe". This also applies to a fair number of those that criticize the union that is being created by "Eurocracy".
One is made to wonder about the reason behind the award. The weightiest factor seems to be the interests of the crowd that benefits from an artificial and bureaucratically regulated Europe. Decoded, that means a Europe run by officials that can interpret its governmental decrees. Devoid of popular sovereignty's mandate, the system seeks legitimacy. It is to justify the rule by the few that are declared to be right, when they act against the many that are considered wrong if they resist their leaders.
A factor is picked to be the "ace" in this encounter between skeptical majorities and their born-to-be leaders. To serve the cause, it is proclaimed that there is "no alternative" to the EU and that its virtues prove the critics dumb as well as immoral. The claim's keystone is that the EU is credited with the fifty-five years of general peace in Europe. There is some truth in this allegation. Indeed, the general local peace has held for the time claimed. If you remove the "general" then the case weakens.
To begin with, peace and war are not necessarily determined by the movement of national armies and by a declaration of war. If these formal criteria are projected out of the picture then, the "Cold War" is a war by other means. The same applies to the dissolution of Yugoslavia, the USSR's 1956 war against Hungary and the invasion of the Czechoslovakia in 1968. Separating Europe, in a 19th century manner, from the rest of the world also distorts the picture. The civil war in China, the Korean War, even Viet Nam, has European aspects even if they did not involve directly the states there.
Still, let us allow as the decisive issue the seeming peace within Europe, which limits the selection to the western periphery of Eurasia whose states had once been great powers. Even if peace in that fringe is accepted as a point of departure, it remains an open question whether the implied cause, namely the EU and its forerunners, are to be credited. Here we need to remind ourselves of a law of logic; events that correlate in time do not necessarily stand in a cause and effect relationship. The rise of the number of Baptist ministers and the shrinkage of bikinis are unrelated developments.
So then, is the "peace" in its limited definition that ignores global relationships, a product of a consolidation of which the EU represents the latest stage? Alternatively, could the EU be a product of the calm? Clearly, while the term "peace" is doubted, the writer is inclined towards the second of the alternatives. The difference is significant. It matters if the horses draw the carriage or if the coach pulls the nags.
In the World Wars Europe's states had initially a globally leading position. This pertains to military power as well as the economic, technological, financial and cultural components that are expressed through the might of armies. In 1939, perhaps 1931 – the date Japan attacked China – could be the decisive point in time, European powers and their likes (such as Japan), were sufficiently significant to cause a worldwide conflict. When the war ended in 1945, even the most global of Europe's states, Britain, had sunk into the minor league. Continental powers, America, the USSR and China, rose. These superpowers had super weapons and means to conduct global conflicts. The new scale emerged that dwarfed local European issues.
In the conflict-laden nuclear peace, even for traditional foes such as the French and the remnants of Germany, the centrality of European matters faded. Instead of contesting primacy among themselves, securing the mere survival of the countries of non-Soviet occupied Europe moved into the foreground. Once survival took central stage, the domination of the shrunken dung-heaps by hostile roosters became secondary under the shadow cast by the condor that hovered above them.
America, rallying to the defense of Europe against a threat to which the Continent could not measure up, wished for "unity" within its protectorate. Monstrous Soviet rule in central and east Europe trivialized the differences about Alsace and Lorraine. Not only had Europe's global power wilted, the divisive conflicts of earlier times lost their significance when measured against a global scale.
The peace of Europe shrank in significance once the Soviet threat waned. Even that had little to do with the process that led from the Coal and Steel Community to today's EU. Again, symptoms should not be confused with causes. Moreover, even if unity and peace correlate, the relationship must not be overstated. Divorced from the superpower stalemate, peace in Europe, even if attributed to its unity's current form, does not compellingly validate all the structures that express unity.
Crediting the EU with Europe's peace when the USSR provided the threat to cause bonding, and the USA contributed the free-of-charge protection, ignores the facts of the case. The folks that should know better present distortions to justify current practices and dubious future projects. Thereby they demonstrate that they realize that, in its current form, the "Europe" that is being constructed lacks legitimacy. That is why the crutch of a lie is needed to replace a missing leg.

Inside The New NEA/
Everyone knows that America's public support of the arts is minimal and embarrassing. Rocco Landesman has promised to shake things up. Newsweek thinks he is and it's a bit inspiring to see a mainstream journal cover his goings on. When he was appointed, Tony Kushner said it was: "potentially the best news the arts community in the United States has had since the birth of Walt Whitman." Read Newsweek's peak into his first steps.
Now comes the test. It would be great to have easy access to what the NEA is up to and how we all could be more involved.

Nice attractive Car
By piddles on Tuesday, August 13, 2019I would recommend the G4SE...I have the upgrade Rockford Fosgate sound system which sounds great. I get 36 to 52 miles...has enough power to get around...I bought this for this reason...I like driving this car...and like the styling. I hade a Kia Rio...and I like this Mirage a lot better....The Rio had bolts falling in the floor...and a lot of inside moisture on the windows..and would freeze over in the winter...the gas mileage not great for a 4 cyclinder...about 28 average. In looks alone the Mirage wins. You should drive one and see if this car would work for you....It may not be what u are looking for...but then again maybe so...go with the SE...and consider some of the upgrades also available...I got the deck spoiler and all weather floor matts for the winter. I like the auto dimming mirror as well.

Will be a Mirage owner for life! I love it!
By K. McKenzie on Thursday, March 16, 20172017 Mirage G4 SE Wine Red I just purchased a 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 SE CVT in Wine Red and love it. I traded my 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage ES CVT with Navigation and the updates are extensive. The interior on the 2017s have so many upgrades such as seat fabric material, interior piano trim, seat support, sound insulation, new gauge cluster, new steering wheel, new audio unit with apple car play and android auto, 4 more horsepower and a new roller cam shaft, new suspension updates, smoother idle, fender insulation, heated seats, auto dimming rear view mirror, wide angle rear view camera (G4), rear fold down arm rest with cup holders and even the way the shifter feels going into gear is much smoother. The updates are amazing in making this car feel more substantial. I got the Light Gray interior which adds a level of class to the interior and added the Mitsubishi Center Console Armrest for 138.95 (my 2015 had it installed). The room inside the G4 is unreal, its huge and the trunk is cavernous!!! I also love the dark chrome alloy wheels and matching front grill. This paint color (Wine Red) is so unique and classy looking. I had no issues with my 2015 and only traded for the upgrades and the deal I got on this 2017 Top Trim G4 SE. It was 18,115.00 and I got it for 12,714.00!!! Beat that Nissan Versa (for a fully loaded top trim). We absolutely love our 2016 Outlander Sport GT and 2017 Mirage G4 SE!!! While driving in town the ride is much more quiet and takes bumps with less of a thud and the idle is 50% smoother and quieter. The seats feel extra stuffed and the material is for sure much more premium feeling. The Apple Car Play alone is one of my favorite features and props to Mitsubishi for incorporating that!!! I have owned a lot of new cars over the years and never has one resonated with me like the Mirage has so much in fact that I traded my 2015 on a 2017 and will only buy Mirages from this day forward! Past Vehicles: 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage ES, 2013 Hyundai Elantra GLS, 2010 Kia Soul Exclaim, 2008 Hyundai Sonata, 2005 Chevy Cavalier, 2003 Hyundai Accent GT, 2002 Kia Rio, then I owned 2 used cars, 1997 Dodge Stratus and 1989 Ford Probe. I feel Consumer Reports, KBB and many other reviewers could not be more wrong about the Mitsubishi Mirage and Mirage G4. I would know since I have owned the Hatchback and the Sedan. I have loved both of my Mirages more than any other vehicle I have ever owned. The Mirage is made to achieve good fuel economy, cheap price, reliability, many standard features and it beats the competition in all of those categories (plus they never tell you that you can eaisly get 2,000.00 to 4,000.00 off window sticker with rebates and sales). Just go online and read owner reviews and that will give you a true perspective of how owners love their Mirage and many have bought second ones. I drove the competition (Spark, Versa, Fit, 500, ForTwo) and the choice was a no brainer for me. With the 10/100,000 warranty, standard features on my SE such as auto dimming rear view mirror, push start, pw, pl, pm, cruise, heated seats, apple car play android auto, auto climate control, cvt, huge rear seat in G4, huge trunk, auto up down driver window, 7 airbags, keyless access with button on door and trunk lid, fog lights and much more!!! The window sticker on my G4 with the optional rear spoiler was 18,115.00 and I got it for 12,714.00 for a fully loaded top trim brand new car is unbeatable. I never had a single issue with my 2015 Mirage and only traded it on a 2017 for the new updates and got the G4 instead of the hatchback. Plus I fell in love with the Wine Red color that is like a dark cherry in some light but when the sun hits it it turns magenta. If you are thinking of getting a Mirage drive one yourself and dont listen to these reviewers that drive Mercedes, Lexus and BMW each and everyday which in turn gives them a tarnished opinion of normal cars like this that most people can afford. I am so glad I did not listen to the review of the Mirage (I almost did not drive one because of the negative reviews) because when I drove it I loved it. My advice is go for it, get a Mitsubishi!

I Love This Car
By Jess on Wednesday, October 12, 2016I bought this car after my 2002 Grand Am died on me. I absolutely love it. It looks tiny, but has so much room. Its pretty but not too fancy. Its a perfect car at a perfect price.

The "Ender's Game" controversy is really no controversy.
Because of author Orson Scott Card's anti-gay marriage view, some have called for a boycott of the film. Card, a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, has been vocal about the issue for a number of years. But there isn't a trace of that opinion in either the award-winning novel or the new film.
Instead, the story deals with a number of relevant moral and ethical issues about warfare as well as — interestingly enough — dealing with tolerance and compassion.
Artists are rarely super men or women. Some fairly awful individuals — slaveholders, bigots and murderers — have written or created some magnificent, inspiring and beautiful works. Most artists, though, are just human, full of failings and blind spots as well as being products of their time and upbringing.
Ultimately, it's what created that counts and that stands alone. If people try to judge every work by its author, we probably would be reduced to reading "The Cat in the Hat" — though, undoubtedly, for some even Dr. Seuss is suspect.
Card has kept a low profile since the controversy began last summer. While the author's views have not been taken out of context, they are somewhat more complex than have been portrayed in most of the media. (His original writings are available online.) One article he wrote about tolerance was even titled "Disagree, but don't be unkind."
When asked about the criticism of his anti-gay marriage views, Card told Wired magazine in its November issue: "I hope that people will realize that they are not getting a true picture of me from these comments, and they're certainly not getting anything to do with 'Ender's Game,' which was written long ago and has nothing whatsoever to do with gay marriage."

In Which Tumblrs Are Like Assholes In That Everybody's Got One
The Tumblies: The Tumblr Awards
by Tyler Coates
Tumblr! It's the greatest blogging site of our generation! It's made up of so many different people from different backgrounds and cities, with different opinions! (The majority, of course, are young, urban, liberal white people who love graphic design, Mad Men, and Robert Downey, Jr.)
Tumblr, once heralded as the blogging platform for busy people, quickly turned into the LiveJournal of 2008: it's a blog software pretending to be a social networking site, where you can collect followers and re-blog glory, and everyone is aiming for a spot on the Tumblr Radar. Forget YouTube: with the power of the re-blog, Internet "fame" can happen much quicker, albeit to a smaller audience. On Tumblr, nearly everyone can have their proverbial fifteen minutes of fame (which, on the Internet, amounts to 24 hours at best).
In the olden days of blogging, you had to put forth the effort to link to someone else. Nowadays, with push-button publishing, Tumblr makes it easy to participate in a meme, a feud, a controversy. On any given day the Tumblr Dashboard reads like a message board: people chime in and give their two-cents, responding to whatever "scandal" is on everyone's minds. And that's why we want to reward those special individuals who spend hours upon hours entertaining each other and, more importantly, us.
So if you're someone who checks your Tumblr dashboard several times an hour for any new re-blogs, enjoys a lot of inside jokes about the Tumblelogs you follow, AND loves award shows (think of the following as the Tumblr version of Bravo's A-List Awards, only Kathy Griffin is not around and, sadly, Joel McHale was not available to host the show in front of a green screen), we now present THE TUMBLIES.

Tune in to "Nancy Grace" Thursday night at 8 ET, live from Orlando, for more on Casey Anthony's sentencing. Then, Saturday night at 9 ET on HLN, don't miss a special two-hour event, "Justice for Caylee: A Nancy Grace Special." HLN looks back at the evidence and the emotional testimony in the Casey Anthony murder trial.
(CNN) -- It started as soon as the not guilty verdict came down Tuesday for Casey Anthony.
People blogged it, celebs tweeted it, and court watchers thought about it and discussed it. You might have been wondering it yourself.
CNN.com comments were loaded with it, including one reader using the handle "Stevelb1" who summed it up succinctly: "I bet she gets a reality show now."
As Anthony transitions from the famously accused young mother tried for the alleged murder of her child to the infamously acquitted woman whose proceedings captivated a nation, many wonder if her time on the small screen could be extended to include a reality show.
After all, would such a concept be a big leap for someone whose life has already been so exposed, examined, picked apart and bandied about by pundits, spectators and experts?
"It makes sense to me that someone would go to her and say, 'Let me turn a camera on you right now,' " said Dr. Drew Pinsky, an HLN talk show host. "There's nothing to prevent that from happening, and if I know reality TV, someone's going to vie for that."
Not that the argument couldn't be made that the viewing public has already been treated to a Casey Anthony reality show, with the murder trial in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.
As friends, family members, law enforcement and others took the stand, the trial unfolded like a modern-day Greek tragedy.
Alleged family secrets were revealed, including tension between Anthony and her mother, and the prosecution painted a picture of Anthony as a party girl indifferent to her child to the point of murder.
Even before the case of the tiny tot whose disappearance and ultimate discovery wound its way to court, the Casey Anthony story was evocative of a reality series complete with drama and the expectation of what could happen next.
"It's like a horrible reality show," John Walsh, "America's Most Wanted" host and father of a murdered son, told the Orlando Sentinel newspaper almost a year before the trial began. "Florida taxpayers say, 'Put this woman on trial and move on.' It's just tragically sad."
Now that the case has ended with Anthony being found not guilty of all but four misdemeanor counts, experts have speculated that she will now move on to monetizing her experience with everything from possible books to television movies.
Mark Yawitz is co-founder of RealityWanted.com, a casting company that has worked with reality shows like "America's Next Top Model" and "Bad Girls Club." He said given how vilified Anthony has been by many who did not believe in her innocence, he doubts that she'd be able to secure a reality TV deal.
"I think it's too over the top and am certain no one in reality TV would touch this," he said. "At least I hope not."
Yawitz said the public is almost hard-wired to want to tune into high-profile events like the Anthony trial, but viewers are willing to go only so far.
"There was a period in history where the public once gathered to watch executions," he said. "I couldn't imagine anyone doing that today, but something is built into our DNA to watch/follow events like this."
And contrary to public perception, he said, television executives are not willing to put just anyone on air to make money. Gary Fredo agrees.
Fredo, a lieutenant with the Los Angeles Police Department, was the host of a short-lived Fox reality show, "Murder in Small Town X," and said the allure of Casey Anthony lies not in watching cameras follow her life moving forward, but in the mystery that still surrounds her.
"People want to know what happened the day Caylee died and leading up to that," Fredo said, "not just where she is going and what she is going to be doing from this point."
Like many observers of the Anthony case, Fredo drew a comparison between Anthony's case and that of of O.J. Simpson, the celebrity athlete who in 1995 was acquitted of the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman.
"During that time period, he could be out on the golf course and all of a sudden it was national news," Fredo said. "But is Casey Anthony as big as O.J. Simpson? I don't know."
"I do know that people want to watch reality shows where they like the person featured or want to get a behind-the-scenes look at their lives. How could you develop a show in which Casey Anthony would be liked?"
Rather, he said, Hollywood will probably take the approach of dramatizing her story with a made-for-television movie.
Kevin Kuffa was co-casting director for "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," a recently canceled dramatic series that could have easily ripped the Anthony story from the headlines for an episode.
Kuffa said that while he imagines there is a market for viewers wanting to see an Anthony reality series, he couldn't imagine that many TV executives would want to do business with her.
"I feel like it would be such a public relations disaster for any network who would want to work with her," Kuffa said, given the national ire that was raised when Anthony was acquitted.
However, he said, there will undoubtedly be multiple TV movies.
"You always want to make a TV movie out of these dramatic, true-life crime stories," Kuffa said. "Lifetime [network] especially is good with their true-crime movies, and they are usually highly rated."
Pinsky said such projects are not hard to predict, given that Anthony will now have to figure out how to make money after having spent the last three years in prison awaiting trial.
There is at least one reality show that viewers shouldn't expect to see Anthony appearing on anytime soon. Asked whether he'd have Anthony on his hit VH1 series "Celebrity Rehab," Pinsky said, "No, I would not."
"Those decisions aren't made by me, but I don't see that she's an addict," he said. "There's no reason to treat someone who has no addiction."
On Thursday, Anthony appeared poised to regain her new life once she is released. Gone was the ponytail hairstyle and button-downed blouses as she literally let her hair down and wore a more relaxed, blue V-neck sweater.
She was sentenced to four years in prison -- one year for each of her four convictions of lying to authorities -- and fined $1,000 for each of the four counts. But with credit for time served and good behavior, she could be released as soon as this summer.

Brunswick, Maine, holds month-long celebration of poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
BRUNSWICK, Maine (AP) � The town of Brunswick is holding a monthlong series of events in celebration of poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
The annual Longfellow Days celebration kicks off Saturday and runs through Feb. 27, which marks the 206th anniversary of Longfellow's birth. Longfellow was born in Portland, attended Bowdoin College and went on to become one of America's best-known poets.
During the month, there will be public poetry readings, lectures and discussions, a film screening and a chapel service at the Bowdoin College chapel.
The event is a program of the Brunswick Downtown Association, with support from Bowdoin College, the Maine Arts Commission, the Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance, the Alfred M. Senter Fund and the Association of Bowdoin Friends.

These inhalers contain ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which are propellants that move medication out of the inhaler and into the lungs of patients. Alternative medications that do not contain CFCs are available.
The affected products and their phase out schedule include:
|Inhaler Medication
|Last Date to be manufactured, sold or dispensed in U.S.
Tilade Inhaler (nedocromil)
June 14, 2010
King Pharmaceuticals
Alupent Inhalation Aerosol (metaproterenol)
June 14, 2010
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals
Azmacort Inhalation Aerosol (triamcinolone)
Dec. 31, 2010
Abbott Laboratories
Intal Inhaler (cromolyn)

Forest Laboratories
Combivent Inhalation Aerosol (albuterol and ipratropium in combination)
Dec. 31, 2013
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals
Maxair Autohaler (pirbuterol)
Dec. 31, 2013
|Graceway Pharmaceuticals
Patients using the inhalers scheduled to be phased out should talk to their health care professional about switching to one of several alternative treatments currently available. Until then, patients should continue using their current inhaler medication.
CFCs are harmful because they deplete the ozone layer miles above the Earth that absorb some of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. The United States has banned the general use of CFCs in consumer aerosols for decades, and eliminated the production of CFCs in the United States as of Jan. 1, 1996, except for certain limited uses, such as MDIs.
"During this transition, FDA wants to ensure that patients have access to safe and effective alternative medications to treat their asthma or COPD," said Badrul Chowdhury, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Division of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Rheumatology Products in FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. "We are currently working with professional societies and patient organizations to make sure patients understand which products will no longer be available and have information on which alternative medication might work best for them."
The CFC phase out is part of an international agreement to ban substances that deplete the Earth's ozone layer. The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer and the U.S. Clean Air Act aim to protect the public health and the environment from the potentially negative effects of ozone depletion. Bans on products containing CFCs began in the late 1970s.
The decision to phase out the products is the latest in a series of decisions related to the removal of CFC inhaler products from the market as required by the Clean Air Act. The agency proposed to phase-out the seven remaining products in 2007 and reached a final decision after reviewing more than 4,000 public comments and information submitted as part of a public meeting.

About code quality analysis
Code quality analysis helps you to make your code:
- less error-prone
- more sustainable
- more reliable
- more readable
- more welcoming to new contributors
Code quality analysis mainly relies on a set of tools that look at your code and give you hints. The most famous tools are Findbugs, PMD, Checkstyle; but also code coverage tools such as Jacoco. JDT itself provides very powerful quality checks, but there are not enabled by default. You should go to Error/Warnings in preferences and replace all "ignore" by "Warning". You can (and should) enable such tools in IDE.
Code quality can also be analyzed out of the IDE, running those tools and using their reports to find out the "hot spots" in your code.
About Sonar
Sonar is an open-source product which is used to gather several metrics about code quality, put them all in a single dashboard, and provide some tips to help you making your code better, more sustainable, more reliable, less bugged.
Enable Hudson Sonar plugin on your job or running mvn sonar:sonar on your Maven build will result in the following flow of actions:
- Sonar will locally analyze code and generate reports from many analyzers
- Sonar will push those reports to the Sonar dashboard
Sonar for Eclipse.org
Sonar can be found on https://dev.eclipse.org/sonar . Several projects already have quality reports enabled. You can drill-down on code to see Sonar annotations on each class, or navigate through the different widget on dashboard to focus on dedicated issues
Enable Sonar for your project
See http://mickaelistria.wordpress.com/2012/10/08/sonar-at-eclipse-org/ . You'll need a Tycho-based build, and a Job on Hudson sandbox to be able to push reports to Sonar.
Permissions on Sonar
Sonar is currently (and will remain) public to all, but only an admin can log it. So it's not yet possible to store user preferences or be made an administrator on a project. Follow bug 391343 for more details.
Sonar is installed on a VM accessible from inside Eclipse infrastructure and with hostname sonar. It uses its embedded Jetty server to publish to HTTP, and uses a PostgreSQL database on the same VM.
The database is made accessible from Eclipse.org servers and has a user for Sonar, and another user for Hudson. When running the Hudson Sonar plugin, the plugin uses this user to push to the Sonar database the metrics about your project.
- Open issues: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?list_id=6604883&classification=Eclipse%20Foundation&query_format=advanced&component=Sonar&product=Community
- User to follow to get notified of new bugs on Sonar component: email@example.com
Maintenance notes
- Database requires to be tweak to add some "GRANT" permissions to the sonar user. Sonar could start otherwise.
- March 2013: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=407658 . Removed big log file and restarted Sonar,
- July 2013: Got an OutOfMemory on Sonar side while running Platform-Sonar job. Increased max memory in conf/wrapper.conf and restarted Sonar.
- July 2013: No space left on device. A lot of big memory dumps files in bin/linux-x86-64 consumed half of disk space. Removed them
- October 2013: Migration to SonarQube 3.7.1 to provide compatibility with Maven
- https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=417978 basic migration
- https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=418502 Issue with HTTPS
- org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: permission denied for relation permission_templates => Give permissions to hudson user with psql GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO user; GRANT SELECT ON ALL SEQUENCES IN SCHEMA public TO user;

Sarah 1: Cancer 0
This will be my last cancer post because…
I am happy to report that yesterday I received news that the pathology reports show that they got all the cancer with the surgery and I am officially now in the "cancer survivor" category. Give me a moment…
OK, I'm back. I am extraordinarily relieved to be done with this. I have more medical follow-up and check-up appointments over the next several months, but as long as I heal okay, this is over. A total knock-out fight and cancer lost. Take that, cancer! I am admittedly a little worse for wear, but all things considered, it was never a fair fight. With all the positive vibes you were sending me, cancer never stood a chance. And I just wasn't ready to die yet.
I thought that for my final post on this topic, I'd try to answer some of the many questions that I've been hearing a lot.
How did you do this so fast? It's only been a few weeks since you were diagnosed!
We caught the cancer super-early. That only happened because I get regular exams at my OB/GYN. I've been so pleased with the number of women contacting me saying they traditionally avoid their yearly exams, but scheduled an appointment after reading what I'd written. Paraphrasing an Australian PSA poster someone mentioned to me: "It's a few moments of discomfort for an entire year of peace of mind." Another factor in my speed-cancer-killing is that my doctors were eager to get the surgery done quickly (as was I), and I told them to be aggressive with what they removed…to err on the side of "too much" just to make sure we'd get it all and I wouldn't have to endure another surgery or radiation, the two likely next steps were this surgery to fail.
Did you really live-Tweet during your surgery?
I did indeed. I had to stop part-way through due to an allergic reaction to the anesthetic, so it wasn't as "blow by blow" as I'd hoped to achieve, but I did as much live as I could and caught up once my arms and hands stopped shaking violently. I am still somewhat baffled that I was left conscious for this, but apparently it's standard practice. I would recommend to others that you may want to inquire about a general anesthetic if you have to do it (which I hope you never do). If I ever had to do it again, I would mandate a general. I left out most of the gruesome details believe it or not (my choice), but have openly discussed them with anyone who's curious or looking at facing a similar procedure themselves. Below are my Tweets from right before, during, and after the surgery. Read from the bottom up.
How did the surgery go?
The surgery was successful and the cancer's gone–so the surgery did its job. They had to remove far more tissue than they'd planned, which made the procedure take longer. Unfortunately, I had an unpredictable allergic reaction to the cervical block (read: several injections with a BFN (big fucking needle). I was violently shaking, nearly seizing. But they wanted to go ahead with the procedure so we did. I had two female nurses holding me down to keep me as still as possible (and a female doctor). And in true Sarah fashion I made a lewd joke to cover my fear and freaked-out-ed-ness. I said "If all three of you were hot naked guys and the doctor was holding a vibrator instead of a cauterizing gun this would be a great porn film." At least it made the nurses giggle.
What has recovery been like after the surgery?
It's been difficult. I didn't really move much at all for 72 hours. I gave myself one more day off work than I thought I needed, then I could only do a half-day my first two days back and am home working today to give myself more recuperating time. My energy level is low and I get tired super easily. But I suppose that's to be expected after having chunks cut off of you, being burned and charred, and losing a lot of blood.
Who did you have to help you?
I could not have gotten through this by myself. My bestest friend Carol helped me with the surgery and immediate aftermath (stuffed animals in the car FTW). I've also had help and support from a few other local friends–making or bringing me food, scooping the cat boxes, or simply stopping by to say hi. But I especially want to thank Michael who's done much more than he had to. And really, anyone who gets me out of the house for the first time to see Henry Cavill with his shirt off gets bonus points for life. For *life* I say! I have also had remote encouragement and help from hundreds of family and friends, revealing to me a support network that I didn't know existed. It's heartening to think that in the worst case scenarios in our lives we have people to reach out to. Of my remote "spirit-keeper-uppers" I want to send a special thanks to Nicolette and Andy whose humor and practical advice helped make things tolerable. To all of you: MWAH!
How are you feeling now? And you're seriously going to ALA? Are you insane, woman?
At the present moment I'm feeling good, but I've also been working from bed all day. I still hurt but it's tolerable. I'm still weak, but if I pace myself it's okay. I was cleared to travel so I am indeed going to ALA for 5 days. I'm presenting three times, pre-recording one additional presentation because they double-booked me, and competing in ALA Battledecks (I will bring the hurt, people). I have a ton of parties and evening events lined up as well. I'm going to see how I do and not push it. If I can't stay for your whole party/event, or you see me sitting on the floor in a corner nodding off, cut me some slack and/or bring me a Red Bull. And yes, I am most certainly insane, but that has nothing to do with this particular conversation.
To close – goodbye cancer and hello future 🙂

This season of True Blood has certainly had its share of twists, turns and shockers. (No, Chris Meloni! NOO!) But as per usual, it seems they've saved the best for last!
At least, that's what I was led to believe after chatting with the lovely Deborah Ann Woll, who took your questions about the last three episodes of the season in the latest Spoiler Room Video Edition. So click below for some scoop on all the hunky men in Jessica's life, to learn whether Hoyt will be crying 'wee, wee, wee' all the way home after being thrown to the pigs (that was grim), and two great teases for what Woll calls the "bloodiest" finale yet.

Student or Learner
Dear teachers,
Would you please tell me what's the function of the following phrase and what is it called?
The teacher, including all his students, has decided not to enter the classroom.
the teacher = subject
has decided = verb
not to enter the classroom = direct object
What about "including all his students" ?
Thank you in advance
