My experience will inspire me to be a better teacher because I can describe first hand the lump in my throat and chest when I walked into the crematoria. I had a physical reaction to being there. I couldn't catch my breath to know so many had perished and been in that same room.

This experience changed my perception of the Holocaust from a faded, black and white photograph of something that happened a long time ago, to a very concrete (and very scary) reality that is highly relevant to our future.

Being in the classroom has limitations, even the beloved internet can not bring the facts to life like traveling does. The smells, the sounds, feeling the wind and sun in such places never leaves. No classroom can make that happen. My best hope is to create the spark, the inquiry for my students to seek more on their own and to make the difference in their generations....CWB provides the inspiration to conintue the efforts, that what teachers do matters, and each individual is worth the extra effort.

The Classrooms Without Borders trip confirmed my experience regarding the power of on site learning. During the experiential learning trip, Stephen Hart's quote kept coming to my mind: "Formal education is a walk through the zoo, informal education is a walk through the savannah." The Poland Personally seminar provided a powerful and memorable experiential learning walk through a rich and complex ecosystem that deserves to be "lived" by as many students and educators as possible.

In a classroom, the victims of the Holocaust are statistics. In Poland, where they lived and died, they are humans. Their faces line the walls, their ashes pile under a brilliant blue sky, their empty shoes fill rooms. I continue to struggle with how to remember these people, as individuals and not meaningless numbers, and the best way I can come up with is to be more compassionate and empathetic towards everyone I encounter.

LIBERTY TOWNSHIP, Ohio (WKRC) - The superintendent of Monroe Local Schools provided an update Sunday on four students involved in a crash Friday night on their way to prom."A number of students that were close to those kids ended up leaving prom and going to the hospital," said Superintendent Dr. Phil Cagwin.The crash happened on Millikin Road near Butler Warren Road in Liberty Township. Cagwin said early Sunday afternoon one of the students had been released from the hospital.Later in the afternoon, he told Local 12 two more students had been released from the hospital and were recovering at home.One of the students, a 17-year-old girl, remains in the hospital and is currently on life support.Cagwin says he was getting ready to leave his home to head to the prom when the school resource officer called him about the accident."The mood was very somber," said Cagwin. "It was so nice to have some of the faculty there because they could relate to teachers they feel close to and have support immediately there at the prom."Cagwin also said community members have been asking how they can help the families of the students. One family requested privacy at this time and asked that instead of visiting the hospital, people donate gift cards so food can be purchased for the families.Gift cards can be delivered to Monroe High School's office between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. School officials will make sure they are distributed to the families.The school has also made a support team available to students throughout the week.

For too long, say researchers from the University of Surrey, we have focused on the glamour of the jet-setting lifestyle at the exclusion of its physical and mental costs,
PUMA R698 Mesh Neoprene Mens Grey/White/Blue Sneakers Graywhite Blue NtQ6sTn
It used to be common to flaunt the things you had. Nowadays, we flaunt the things we do, and there's nothing quite like travel for making your Facebook persona look like the kind of bees-knees fellow that everyone aspires to be. Meanwhile, in your professional life (however much the boundaries may have blurred), making regular business trips doesn't half make one feel jolly important.
From stock images of gap-year students finding enlightenment in the jungles of Asia to slick television adverts of handsome and wealthy looking men being pampered by the attractive personnel of the world's most elite airlines, travel has been glamorised as a status-defining dimension of life no matter what your income bracket.
But as with all glamourous lifestyles, the glamour of frequent travel comes at a cost. And while the financial and ecological sides of this price tag have long been understood, a recent research paper entitled "
Sfnld Womens Fashion Boho Flip Flop Platform Beach Slippers Thong Wegde Heel Sandals Black 1 COqMIrG6
" suggests that the human dimension has long been overlooked: as well as costing the earth and ramping up expense accounts, frequent flying can produce serious physical and mental tolls on the traveller.
Some of these, such as the dreaded deep-vein thrombosis, are well known. But the adverse effects of even the most frequently experienced travelling woes such as jetlag are, it turns out, often poorly understood.
Few are likely to be aware, for example, that the body can take as long as 11 days to get its circadian rhythms back into sync after a long-haul flight, or that medical research has linked jetlag with increased risk of heart attacks and strokes. At what the researchers call the "extreme end of a darker side of hypermobility" are arguments that frequent fliers "should be classified as 'radiation workers': flying 85,000 miles a year goes beyond the regulatory limit for public exposure to radiation facilities".
There are numerous psychological ramifications of frequent air travel too. "Hypermobility", warn the researchers, "is frequently an isolating and lonely experience". Those that have families will be painfully aware of the strain that prolonged absence from home can cause. This kind of lifestyle has even spawned a common trope in popular culture, the "stay-away Dad" of American films who always promises to make the next school play despite being inevitably called away at the last minute.
Even those without families will be surprised to learn how psychologically disorientating constant travel can be. From the loss of "local place-bounded identities" to the "deterritorialisation of place-identity" the researchers present a dizzying list of potential psychological ailments associated with the footloose lifestyle.
Finally, for those who are sceptical of academic neologisms and prefer their research to be based on hard figures, consider the following example: in "a study of the medical insurance claims of 10,000 World Bank staff [researchers found] a nearly three-fold increase in psychological claims by business travellers (4,000 of those staff) as opposed to non-travellers".
Business-class flights and five-star hotels are always going to be glamorous. Research such as this is as unlikely to stop the hypermobile from enjoying these services and the status gained from using them as it is to stop many of their less mobile colleagues from envying them. Yet it might just make both these types think twice about the costs of such a lifestyle.

LAHTI, Finland (March 1) – Two-time World Cup champion Kikkan Randall (Anchorage) made a statement Saturday with rookie teammate Sophie Caldwell (Peru, VT) as the two took first and third at the Lahti World Cup sprints, the first-ever double podium for U.S. women. It was a career-first podium for Caldwell, as well as the first time a woman other than Randall has landed on an individual World Cup podium in the modern era. The crucial win put Randall back on top of the World Cup sprint standings as she continues the fight for her third-straight sprint title. The Lahti Ski Games continue Sunday with the men's 15k and women's 10k freestyle races.

Kikkan Randall
It was super fun to share the podium with my teammate today. Sophie is having an incredible breakthrough season and it's so fun to head to the start with your teammate. I'm super impressed with her trajectory and I'm looking forward to pushing each other and the other girls to the next level!
It's going to be a tough battle with two more classic sprints left. I am glad the good race feelings are back and I'm hoping to find the strong classic form I had at the beginning of the season. I knew I needed a big race today so it's great to have a chance to defend the globe now!
Sophie Caldwell
It is a very special day for me. I cannot believe I won third place. I trained lunges with my coach and I think it was my best lunge ever. It is great feeling for me to be on the podium with Kikkan.
Matt Whitcomb, Head Women's Cross Country Coach
Today's result is very special to the team. A double podium after what for some was a disappointing several weeks in Russia is what can happen to a buoyant team. Everyone has kept their heads up and eyes wide open, awake, always positive and ready to take the next hard swing. It feels good to hit one or two out of the park again and I'm not afraid to say we've missed that feeling.
You couldn't help but smile watching Kikkan run back and forth in her warm-up before the quarters, semis, and finals. With each progressive heat one could see the good feelings returning–not just physically, but emotionally. By the finals it was apparent that she was ready to put on a show.
Sophie made incredible moves out there today. It was a hard-earned passage from one heat to the next today in deteriorating conditions, but for Sophie, that course breakdown only opens up opportunity. She floats.

What if you needed to cut off a piece of your body to save your life? Tough choice. What if you were a gorgeous movie star whose career hinged on your beauty—and the body part in question was your breasts? Tougher still. And yet, if you're as brave as Angelina Jolie, you do it.
The A-lister recently found out she has BRCA-1, a gene that gave her an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and also 50-50 odds of ovarian cancer. Experts say the odds vary from woman to woman with the gene. Tough as it may be, Angelina did the right thing. A double mastectomy is a damn tough operation, but you can get over it and feel like a woman again. I know, because, sadly, this surgery is about the only thing I have in common with Angie.
In 2009 a routine mammogram revealed cancer in my left breast. For safety's sake, I opted for a double mastectomy. Breast cancer unfortunately runs in my family—my mom is a survivor, and my younger sister, Emily, was at the time struggling with it too.
Plus: An Open Letter To Angelina
I remember, in the days leading up to my surgery, sitting beside healthy co-workers and silently praying to God to let us swap bodies. On the drive to the hospital, I fought a wild urge to leap out of the moving car and run away. If I'd known exactly what would be waiting at the hospital for me, I probably would have. Shortly before the operation, a technologist made me sign a form acknowledging I was about to become radioactive. Then he took a long needle and injected nuclear-tinged fluid into my nipples. My knees buckled from my fright and the sting. I should've stood my ground, because there was a lot more awfulness to come.
The weeks following the operation were a blur of fatigue and pain. I shuffled around my house in a bathrobe, nodding off as suddenly as a narcoleptic, peeing in my bed while unconscious from painkillers, unable to raise my throbbing arms more than a few inches. Plastic tubes had been tucked into slits in my armpits—bloody yellow fluid would collect in bulbs at the end; I'd drain the oozy muck daily with my husband's help.
Doesn't sound Angelina-like, does it? Yet she must have done this stuff too. I don't think you get off any easier for being famous.
Physical therapy visits entailed trying to lift single-pound weights; I was the editor-writer who suddenly couldn't grasp a pen or hold a book. I lost 15 pounds, and at least a pound of it was tears of discomfort and frustration.
Once my breasts were reconstructed (a whole separate uncomfortable surgery) I could no longer feel them—true still, 4 years later. I had re-learn my physical geography. For weeks I'd slam my new, numb chest against tables and into doors. I no longer knew where I started and ended.
Angelina has said she had her double mastectomy so her kids wouldn't lose their mother. That's another thing she and I have in common. Once, when my then-5-year-old daughter was in the bath, she asked me to toss her a cup she wanted to play with. I still hadn't fully learned how my new body worked, so I threw it too hard and hit her on the head. Angry and frustrated, I was the one who collapsed into to tears, but at least I was still there. I was still her mommy.
Plus: Meet 10 Awesome Moms With Cancer
And then, in the midst of this, my younger sister, Emily, died. In late March of 2009, she went into convulsions from metastatic tumors that had ravaged her Phi-Beta-Kappa-award-winning brain. She was unconscious for 9 days, then passed at midnight in a hospital room, age 37. We'd all been around her bedside that afternoon, and she'd briefly opened her eyes as we'd said our daily goodbye. But no one was there when she drew that final tortured breath, a fact that haunts us still.
Yet somehow, in watching her pass away, I remembered to be so grateful for my own life again. Sure, I had scars, but my cancer had been caught early, before it spread. That summer, I felt I lived for us both. The flowers bloomed brighter; the sky was bluer; every bird seemed like it was singing just for me. My husband still loved me, my daughters were growing by the day. Everything seemed so much more vivid.
I still live like that - extra-appreciative for every day. Most days I don't even remember my double mastectomy unless someone asks. I never think about how I can't feel my chest.
I've figured out I didn't end. I figured out how to start again.

A Story From The Central Region...
As the director of a domestic violence shelter, a big portion of my time is spent on public education; the most common question I get is, of course, "Why doesn't she just leave?"
I'm quick to point out that there are many factors that contribute to why she stays in a relationship that leaves her physically bruised and battered, a relationship that erodes her self-esteem, and one that makes her doubt her own sanity. I can say she fears that if she leaves, he will track her down and follow through on his threats to kill her or the children. He will tell her she's an unfit mother and will threaten to call "the authorities" and tell them she's a bad mother. I will tell them her family and friends long ago gave up on her, their repeated pleas for her to leave and her inability do just that, weakened a tenuous support system. I will tell them he wasn't always a "bad" man, he was attentive and caring in the early days and she thought the jealousy was a sign of love.
I will share that you can't tell an abuser by looking at him, he could be your neighbor, your grocer, your minister. He comes from all walks of life, all socio-economic groups. He may hold a well-respected job, his public personality charming and engaging, but once the door closes at home the deception ends and the bad personal behavior emerges, the words and fists fly.
"Why doesn't she just leave?"
Many do leave, often in the middle of the night, brought to our emergency shelter by police officers, friends, or the medical advocate who responded to a call at the hospital ER at three in the morning. Many arrive wearing only the clothing on their backs, while others come dragging black garbage bags, stuffed and overflowing with all their belongings, scraps of paper, torn photos and broken mementos tossed on top of children's sneakers and eyeless teddy bears.
If I could take a picture of domestic violence it would be this "picture" that has been imprinted on my memory: she came to us on a week-day morning after he had left for work, multiple stair-step sons all with the same haircuts and the same bewildered look on their small faces. Distress visible on her face, tears in her eyes, and shaky hands, in a quivering voice she asked "can you help me and my boys?"
Introductions made, paper work completed, a shelter room tour, and a quick breakfast were the next order of business. Advocates voices, soft and reassuring, offered comfort to Mom and boys. As I walked toward my office I heard her ask in a voice almost inaudible: "can you lock up my savings?" As I turned around I saw her "savings," all copper in a see-through fruit jar.
"Why doesn't she just leave?"
This is one of the faces of domestic violence. They are the women who are our daughters, our sisters, our friends. Each share a universal theme, but each is unique on the path of her journey. A journey that will lead her to safety, to peace and healing, a journey that will help her regain her voice, a voice that's strong, sure, and respected.
Remember those copper pennies the next time you hear someone ask: "Why doesn't she just leave?"

Paris Hilton's younger brother Conrad Hilton was in a serious car crash last weekend, after reportedly driving recklessly.
The California Highway Patrol told TMZ that Hilton, 19, clipped another car Saturday afternoon in Palm Springs while trying to change lanes. His car then hit the rear of a big rig before coming to a stop on the side of the road.
Paramedics reportedly had to use the Jaws of Life to pull Hilton from his car. TMZ reports he only suffered a fractured hand and a few cuts and bruises. The New York Post reported Hilton was taken to Desert Regional Medical Center.
The CHP told the website drugs and alcohol weren't a factor. Another driver called 911 to report Hilton was speeding and driving recklessly. The Post said a CHP helicopter witnessed the crash. TMZ reported that a responding officer tried pulling the car over, but lost sight of Hilton.
I'm guessing he wasn't driving a used Pinto.
Hilton apparently didn't learn his lesson from 2011, when he crashed into a parked car in Brentwood while speeding down a residential street.

MPs' Twitter activity slumps over summer break
Number of tweets drops to 1,900 a week from 2,700 during winter parliamentary sitting
All MPs worked the barbecue circuit this summer, but only some worked the online circuit as well.
During the winter parliamentary sitting, MPs tweeted an average of 2,700 times a week, while in the summer that dropped to about 1,900, according to a new report by Ottawa-based digital public affairs firm Full Duplex.
The drop likely reflects the role Twitter plays for MPs, suggested report author Mark Blevis.
When the House of Commons is sitting, Twitter is a tool MPs use to feel like part of the action and to communicate with constituents or issue-based stakeholders.
But when Parliament is on a break, there's less of a desire to be online, he said.
"I think a lot of MPs probably put their BlackBerrys and iPhones and iPads down for the summer so they can go around and shake hands participate in events in their constituencies," he said.
The report, Peace, Order and Googleable Government, aims to explore whether MPs and the public were talking about the same things online.
Just as MP Twitter traffic slowed over the summer months, so too did that of ordinary Canadians.
6 dominant political themes
Overall, Canadians marked 500,349 of their tweets as relating to Canadian politics during the political off-season, about half as many as during the longer winter session, the report found.
The issues raised were wide-ranging, as people tagged everything from posts about the Olympics to the Quebec election as part of the national political debate.
Six themes dominated: health, oil-and-gas, science, crime, the environment and the robocall scandal.
For MPs, it was similar. They covered a wide variety of topics including their summer barbecues and community fundraising events.
"It wasn't all social, though," the report found.
There was still a substantial amount of political rhetoric, and language choice was "clearly aligned to party talking points."
The dominant themes in the MPs' tweets were mostly in sync with the public's conversations.
Five of the six most tweeted themes by MPs were the same as those discussed by the public, with one exception.
MPs largely ignored the robocalls scandal, with immigration being a higher profile subject.
Liberals most prolific tweeters
Within the themes were a number of different topics. For example, on oil-and-gas, opposition MPs were focused on an oil spill from a pipeline in Wisconsin, while Tory MPs mostly highlighted a helicopter tour of the oilsands.
In crime, most Tory tweeters reacted to the shootings at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin, while NDP MPs were focused on a shooting the night of the Quebec provincial election.
Liberals topped the list of most prolific tweeters, with MPs Denis Coderre and Carolyn Bennett taking the first two spots with 1,682 and 1,276 tweets respectively. Green party MP Elizabeth May came in third.
Five Tory MPs made the top 10 list, including Immigration Minister Jason Kenney, Public Works Minister Rona Ambrose and Heritage Minister James Moore.
Absent was the senior Tory often referred to as the "minister for Twitter," Tony Clement, who tweeted just over 300 times during the summer break compared with 10th place finisher Tory MP Brad Butt at 429 tweets.
No New Democrats cracked the top 10 though one of the party's most frequent tweeters, Charlie Angus, publicly quit using the service during the spring.
But when it came to weighing in on issues most discussed by the public, they were collectively out in full force.
More New Democrat MPs tweeted about science, oil and gas and environment issues than Tories or Liberals.
MPs of all stripes were also more likely to engage in conversation over Twitter than the public.
Twenty-one per cent of MPs' messages were in reply to other people, compared to only nine per cent of public messages.

Remote mirror replication is illustrated in Figure 6–1. Data from the master volume of the primary disk is replicated to the master volume of the secondary disk through a TCP/IP connection. A remote mirror bitmap tracks differences between the master volume on the primary disk and the master volume on the secondary disk.
Remote mirror replication can be performed synchronously in real time, or asynchronously. Each volume set in each cluster can be configured individually, for synchronous replication or asynchronous replication.
In synchronous data replication, a write operation is not confirmed as complete until the remote volume has been updated.
In asynchronous data replication, a write operation is confirmed as complete before the remote volume is updated. Asynchronous data replication provides greater flexibility over long distances and low bandwidth.

On Easter Sundays for the past few years, BC and I have visited the Easter Parade, ... not within range, but I have always felt incredibly wonderful to learn via the Sunday New York Times that he and I had photographed the same Easter bonnets.
I do digress.
New York girls in summer heat and all that comes with it in NYC have greater fashion challenges than those Parisiennes.
Let's cheer for the NYC girls who can beat the weather and still show their style.

Realmuto had three RBIs in his debut, Marcell Ozuna homered and drove in four runs, and the Miami Marlins handed Tampa Bay its 10th consecutive loss by beating the Rays 11-6 on Thursday.
''You can't really ask for much better from my standpoint,'' Realmuto said.
Realmuto drove in two runs on his first big league hit, a fourth-inning single, and added a sixth-inning RBI single.
Marlins infielder Justin Bour also made his major league debut as the designated hitter and had an infield single during the fourth for his first hit. He picked up his first RBI with a single in the seventh.
''It's fun to have young kids in there, watching them get their first at-bats in the big leagues, and watching them have a nice day and for us to get a win,'' Miami manager Mike Redmond said.
Ozuna's two-run homer put Miami up 11-6 in the ninth. Giancarlo Stanton hit his 17th home run, a two-run shot during a three-run seventh that made it 9-5.
The Marlins beat the Rays for the fourth straight time in a home-and-home interleague series. Miami has 12 straight interleague wins, including seven this season.
''It's not easy sweeping a team,'' Redmond said. ''Fortunately our offense just kept the pressure on.''
Kevin Kiermaier and Ben Zobrist homered for the Rays, who matched the longest skid in the majors this season. Boston dropped 10 straight from May 15-25, with Tampa Bay handing them the last three losses in the streak. The Rays haven't won since.
''This team's too good for that,'' Rays manager Joe Maddon said. ''There's too much talent on this team to go through this particular moment. I'm really not into the blame game. We're all culpable when it doesn't go well. I mean that sincerely. It's a good ballclub. These are good baseball players.''
Tampa Bay has the majors worst record at 23-38 and are 14 games behind AL East-leading Toronto.
Redmond was ejected by first base umpire Bill Miller for arguing after Desmond Jennings RBI double down the first- base line got the Rays to 9-6 in the seventh.
''I clearly thought that ball was foul,'' Redmond said. ''When I got out there, I reaffirmed the fact that it was foul, but I couldn't convince him.''
Jacob Turner (2-3) allowed five runs and eight hits over 5 1-3 innings for Miami. He had been 0-11 in his previous 19 road starts.
A three-run sixth gave the Marlins a 6-3 lead. Casey McGehee ended starter Jake Odorizzi's day with a leadoff double. Jake McGee (2-1) entered and allowed RBI singles to Ozuna and Realmuto.
Matt Joyce had an RBI triple and pinch-hitter Jerry Sands hit a run-scoring single that cut the Rays' deficit to 6-5 later in the sixth. Sands' hit ended a stretch that saw Tampa Bay go 0 for 34 with runners in scoring position.
Ozuna hit an RBI single and Realmuto had his two-run single to help the Marlins take a 3-1 lead in the fourth.
Odorizzi gave up four runs and seven hits in five-plus innings.
Tampa Bay pulled even at 3 on fifth-inning solo homers by Kiermaier and Zobrist. James Loney put the Rays ahead 1-0 on a sacrifice fly in the first.
NOTES: The Rays held a moment of silence for team senior adviser Don Zimmer, who died Wednesday night at the age of 83. ... Tampa Bay C Ryan Hanigan (right hamstring tightness) ran the bases and could start a minor league rehab assignment Saturday. ... Marlins SS Rafael Furcal (left hamstring strain) moved his rehab assignment from Single-A Jupiter to Double-A Jacksonville.

Spine and Back Health
I currently aggravated my back and I don`t even remember how it was injured, so nothing too traumatic. However it has been reoccurring and most often when I`m at work (retail, standing in one spot). Is it possible to have aggravated my sciatic nerve or damaged the discs when I`m only in my early 20`s.
Yes, it is possible even at a young age, especially if you smoke, are overweight and/or have a lot of relatives with back problems as well.

He is really gorgeous, and if I were on that whale watch, I'd probably look like the kid in the picture with him, . . .
If you ever go to Provincetown, you can take whale watch boats out of there and alot of the restaurants don't mind outdoor dining with dogs. There are lots of pitbulls around Provincetown in the summer.
Cape Cod is pretty pitty friendly, so far.
The funny part about the kid was that his own dog was on the boat too. he had a golden but didnt seem to click as well with the golden as with Cuda.
Thats where we went out of Provincetown. i must say though that it didnt seem like many of the people were to pittie friendly. i got more dirty looks than i usually do walking him. Then again theres probably a Chit-Load more pitties here in north jersey than there are in Cape Cod.

For an elegant Tiffany-inspired wedding, A Day Like No Other designed invitations and favors that set the mood for the whole wedding: luxurious, elegant and unique!
Crystal-embellished ivory silk folders (directly ordered from the manufacturer in Thailand) opened to reveal custom invites printed on pearlized ivory stock layered over chocolate and Tiffany blue. Additional information was provided on two slender insert cards in the side flaps of the folder.
The invitations were mailed in perfectly fitting flat square boxes, wrapped in white kraft paper with addresses calligraphed on Tiffany blue embellished custom mailing labels.
The Tiffany theme was carried through to every detail of the wedding decor - including the favors: the couple offered home-made organic limoncello, packed in Tiffany-blue handle bags adorned with the same style of custom-printed labels that had been used on the invitation boxes. Talk about consistent design theme!

Reid Genauer is the lead singer of one of the fastest growing bands in the country, Strangefolk. Their blend of "strange folk" and psychedelic jamming has been attracting huge crowds from coast to coast. I spoke with Reid last month from his hotel room in Buffalo.
JW: Let's start back at the beginning and talk a little bit about when the band first formed at the University of Vermont. Was there any kind of a vision that this was ever gonna be a full-time thing or was it just sort of a day to day evolution?
RG: Gosh, it's a hard question to answer. You know, I think it was like anybody who plays guitar…sure there was that thought in the back of your mind, envisioning yourself as a rock and roll star and just kind of the American dream aspect, but it was never really like a reality. I never really thought it would come into fruition. Not that we're rock and roll stars, but you know what I mean, we didn't think we'd be doing this as career-type thing. It slowly took shape.
JW: Was there a certain event or a certain time period where all the sudden you guys realized that it could become a full time thing and decided to throw all your eggs in one basket and just go for it?
RG: I think it kind of evolved. We found some success in Burlington among our friends; our fellow UVM students. That definitely boosted our confidence to know that people actually found some validity in what we were doing. There were all sorts of momentous occasions, but another big one was just graduating college and saying with almost blind stupidity, 'this is what we're doing.' You know? It was that simple. It was just a decision.
JW: So when did the whole Strangefolk organization first start out? You work with guys that were just friends of yours. They certainly didn't have much experience. Did they just sort of learn as they went along?
RG: Yeah, Brett (Fairbrother), Sam (Ankerson) and Andre (Gardner) were just kind of there and we never really knew what the titles were, you know, in a typical rock organization. We just knew, kind of loosely, what we had to get done. People just started doing it and the tasks just slowly got done. People learned what it was that had to happen and we're still learning, you know?
JW: Yeah, because certainly now you're playing major league venues, you have the record deal and you're making a lot of decisions on a business level. Was it ever intimidating? Did the band's success ever grow too quickly?
RG: No not really. We've definitely worked hard every step of the way. We've fought for it, you know? So generally, it feels deserved. But, certainly it's intimidating at times. I mean, it has been and still is. I guess the more you do it, the more you realize this is the same process only in different atmospheres, you know what I mean?
JW: Definitely. I spoke with you last year and I remember you talking about the first time you played Boston, you looked at the Somerville Theatre and said, "wow, I can't imagine if we'll ever play there." Now all the sudden, you've moved past that. You did two sell out shows there last year and now you've moved on to the Avalon. How does that feel? Do you ever just take a step back and smell the roses?
RG: Yeah, I mean when we do stop to examine it, it is certainly pleasing. I always use this analogy, but it's a good one: You can't imagine being in sixth grade when you're a third-grader. And then you get to sixth grade and you move on to eight grade. You don't necessarily look back at sixth grade and think, 'holy cow, I can't believe I'm in eight grade,' it just a natural transition. I think a lot of the transitions that we've experienced physically, organizationally and musically are comparable to that equation.
JW: Okay, let's use that analogy. What grade is Strangefolk in now, musically speaking?
RG: Tough to say. I'd say we're sophomores in high school or something like that. Or maybe, actually…sophomores in college.
JW: You've done the whole grass roots thing. You guys are obviously a touring-success. Can you talk about the thought process that went on within the organization, leading up to the record contract? I'm sure you had many more offers before you actually made the decision to sign with Mammoth.
RG: The thought process was that we had always assumed that at some point we would have a record company and I don't know whether that was our own limitations or if in fact it is a necessary component of success. For one reason or another, we just sort of assumed that we would have a record company behind us. The truth of the matter is, it wasn't like we had hundreds of offers. Usually what does happen is once you do start seeing offers, a lot of times, bands will use them as leverage to try and go out and hunt down other offers and then sort of play the companies off each other. In this instance, we were pretty self-assured that a deal would come around at some point, whether it was this one or not, that was to our liking. We made it clear to them (Mammoth Records) that we were happy with where we were and that we were succeeding by ourselves. We said, 'this is what we think we're worth and these are points that are important to us, both financially, creatively and control-wise, and if you can accommodate those needs then we won't look any further. Basically, treat us fairly and we'll treat you fairly'…and they did.
JW: You basically said to them, 'we don't really need you at this point, so if you want to come along, it's gonna be on our terms.'
RG: Pretty much. There were a few concessions that we needed to make, but overall, they were willing. It wasn't like we were bullying them or they were bullying us. Like I said, they treated us fairly, we made a few concessions and we came to an agreement.

Our Green Policy
At LUSH, we believe in protecting people, animals and the planet. We take our commitment to this seriously. Since LUSH began, our founders have been conscious of how our products interact with the environment. We have always used creative and innovative solutions to make a positive impact on the planet. Our invention of the first-ever solid shampoo bar is testament to this practice. The core of our philosophy is based on the highest levels of ethical standards with the lowest possible impact on the environment. Sustainability is a company-wide priority that flows through our products, from our hands to yours. We are committed to becoming more sustainable the more that we grow. So, environmental and social stewardship are critical elements in the business decisions that we make on a daily basis.
With over 700 stores worldwide and an ever-emerging global presence, we use our buying power to affect positive change in the world. We keep on top of regional and national legislation and partner with many groups to lobby for new regulations that drive and encourage a shift towards a greener future. Our loyalty to these initiatives, LUSH supports hundreds of environmental groups through our Charity Pot program and ethical campaigns, who we see as an extension of our work, taking part in the direct action needed to help motivate change. If you're interested in learning more about our green initiatives, read more about our initatives and efforts below.
Packaging: We love it naked.
We use as little packaging in the shops as possible and give you the choice to go completely naked - we mean the products, not yourselves. What do we mean by naked? When we say "naked" we are usually referring to the products you can buy with absolutely no packaging at all, like our Bath Bombs, massage bars and solid shampoo bars to name a few. If you go naked all the time, you can save over 30 plastic bottles a year from entering our landfills! When packaging is unavoidable, we prefer to use recycled materials. We like our packaging to be reused, recycled or composted at the end of their lives and aim to have 100% of our packaging easily recyclable, compostable or biodegradable.
Waste: Less is more.
We spend a lot of time finding the most effective recycling programs to curb our waste to avoid sending anything to landfill. We work hard in our factories and distribution centers, to make sure that the majority of our output from making and transporting products is recycled, composted or re-used. In North America, we set a zero-waste company-wide goal for 2011. When we can't eliminate it completely, we look to the simplest forms of packaging to do the job and use post-consumer or post-industrial recycled materials that are 100% recyclable, compostable and biodegradable whenever possible.
• Our pots and bottles are made from BPA-Free, 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic.
• Our store carrier bags are made with 100% post-consumer recycled paper and are compostable.
• Our products for shipment are packed in biodegradable plastic bags, recycled paper and/or biodegradable filler and eco-friendly packing tape.
• Our gifts are wrapped in 100% recycled paper and packaged with biodegradable filler.
Raw Materials: We take great care when sourcing our raw materials.
We prefer to use ingredients that are produced in a sustainable way and avoid those that aren't. Palm oil, for example, went into our "little black book" and was replaced by more earth-friendly oils in our soap base. We are now working to remove it from all products, as well as encouraging other companies to do the same. We use almond and olive oil - not mineral oil - partly because we think fields of trees make our lives much richer than oil fields. In designing our products, we go for natural ingredients and use as few synthetics as possible. In fact, we have an incredible range of natural products with no synthetics at all. Over 70% of our range is totally unpreserved and we aim to improve on that.
Buying: Betting our green on being green
We choose to give our love (and money) to suppliers that respect the environment, as well as the animals and people living there. We work diligently with all of our suppliers to minimize our environmental impact. We're pretty sure we drive our suppliers crazy in our pursuit to find the best possible alternatives for materials and supplies available on the market. Whether it be 100% PCR recycled cardboard or oxo-biodegradable shrink wrap, we like to keep them on their toes! This year at LUSH, responsible buying of recycled supplies for our administrative offices helped us save over 300 trees, 511, 363 liters of water (135,000 gallons of water), 675 gallons of oil and reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 28,000 CO2 equivalents.
Transportation: Good planets are hard to come by.
Since we are an international company operating in 46 countries - and using fresh raw materials from all over the globe - sea, land and air transport make up our biggest contribution to climate change. As we source many of our materials globally, we try to maximize efficiency, starting at the raw materials level and bring it full circle back to our local factories. We prefer to make our fresh products locally, with a local workforce to supply local markets. We work closely with our transportation providers to source low-impact and ethically responsible fuels for moving our raw materials and finished products around the globe. In an effort to better control our emissions and reduce our carbon footprint, we tracked and reported our carbon emissions in 2011 and will be instituting an internal Carbon Tax program that will be applied to all of our corporate travel and outbound shipments.
Energy: Our inner chi.
Energy is embedded into all that we consume, from our supply chain through our finished products. We are working to reduce the amount of energy used to produce, transport and sell our products to you. We employ all possible methods of energy optimization and efficiency retrofits within our manufacturing facilities, distribution centers and in our stores. 100% of our electricity consumed, is replenished into the grid with renewable energy from wind and low-impact hydro, through Bullfrog Power. In the spring of 2010, we put our efforts to the test with an Energy Challenge. The results were a huge success, as we hit our goal of reducing our overall energy consumption by 14%!
Water: 326 million cubic miles is all we've got.
As we share our water with the entire planet, we feel that it is a precious resource. With only 326 million cubic miles of water on the earth, the decreasing amounts of access to quality fresh water is what bothers us most. We monitor how we use water at our factories and are constantly working on ways to reduce our consumption of fresh water resources. Even linen service providers help us, by treating and reusing their own water onsite! Also, by selling our products directly to you with no packaging, we avoid using incredible amounts of water. For instance, just from making our shampoo bars in solid form, rather than bottled, we save over 450,000 liters (118,800 gallons) a year!
Communication: We mean what we say.
In 2011, we started reporting our environmental performance on an annual basis to ensure that our policy delivers on what it promises. Although the green message comes from the top, the organization needs a network of people to spread it. So we continue to encourage and support the people that help make this possible in our stores and manufacturing facilities, by making them official members of our Green Team. Our Green Team is a group of dedicated environmental advocates, within our ranks, that volunteer to step forward and be our environmental stewards on the front lines. We also believe in campaigning with our customers to bring to light important topics. We like to empower those around us and are especially fond of turning passion into action.

Research: Social Cognition and Imagination
Pace Psychology Professor Thalia Goldstein investigates the intersection of social cognition and imagination and its relationship to psychological development in children and adolescents.
A performer from a very young age, Dyson Professor of Psychology Thalia Goldstein, PhD, was involved in theater and dance all throughout her childhood. By the time she got to college, she double-majored in Psychology and Theater. While working on her undergraduate degree, Goldstein found herself doing work in a social psychology lab and performing her own experiments, but the acting bug was a tough thing to shake. She ended up moving to New York to pursue a career on the stage, putting her work in psychology on the back burner for a bit.
"I was a waitress and a tutor and a nanny—I did a whole bunch of odd jobs while I was trying to be an actress. I had a little bit of success and after a while, I decided that I really missed psychology and thinking about science. I missed academia," says Goldstein. Soon after, she became a lab manager at NYU and after a year, began work on her PhD at Boston College.
In the years since, Goldstein has been able to combine her passion for performance with her love of psychology. She began her research on the effects of acting on children and adolescents while working on her PhD and started more research looking at the understanding of acting after receiving a National Science Foundation fellowship to be a post-doctoral scholar at Yale.
"I was focused on figuring out what are the intersections between being engaged in fiction and pretend and acting and role play and understanding other people, understanding emotions and personality and characteristics, and all the things that make us human," she explains.
At Pace, Goldstein founded the Social Cognition and Imagination (SCI) Lab where, with the help of her research team which includes several of Pace's graduate and undergraduate students, she looks at how acting and pretend-play might help with the development of empathy, compassion, and altruism in children and adolescents. She recently received a grant from the John Templeton Foundation to conduct a large scale, longitudinal study on four-year-olds and how their engagement in role play helps with this sort of social and psychological development.
She's also researching how children understand the way that emotions and personality and physical characteristics work at the pretend-reality boundary. By showing children short video clips of an actor's reactions and responses to things they encounter on screen and then questioning them about the actors response, she and her team were able to determine that a child's ability to distinguish reality versus pretend depends on age and development level.
"Three- and four-year-old kids seem to think that even if you're pretending to be a character (and we do tell them it's pretend) who is sad or has just hurt their knee, then you really are sad and really do have an injured knee," Goldstein says, "By the time the kids turn five, they are able to determine the realness of a physical characteristic—for instance, if an actor gets beat up, they know that that's pretend. However, they do still have trouble determining if an actor is really sad if they are crying."
But it isn't just kids who have trouble distinguishing reality from pretend. It may be part of the reason we go to the movies or watch television. Even though we all agree and acknowledge that what we are seeing is not real, we have emotional reactions. "We want to be moved, we want to have an emotional reaction," she says. This could be why actors like Hugh Laurie receive fan mail addressed to his House character seeking referrals or diagnoses, or why soap opera actors are often questioned about why their characters did something or other on the show.
In the future, Goldstein plans to expand her research to include a variety of states—moving beyond just emotional and physical—to personality traits, knowledge, skills, and less-temporary characteristics, like shyness. She also hopes to expand her videos beyond just short clips to something that really illustrates a character going though several different states.

I'm really confused about URM status, I was hoping to get some feedback from anyone/everyone...OK this is probably going to confuse you, but bear with me...In one sense I am Caucasian - I am white, and am ethnically from the Arab Levant. The Arab Levant also qualifies as Western Asia in a lot of categorizations (Middle East, Near East, Western Asia are the most used terms, I believe). My family is part of a large community that emigrated to Africa from the Arab Levant a long time ago (over 4 generations), and most of my family is from and lives in the Sudan. Sudan is technically African, but most Northerners consider themselves Arab (and speak Arabic). I lived in the region (multiple African, Arab, and Asian countries), and I identify strongly with that part of the world. I have been American since birth, and thoroughly confused when it comes to ticking those stupid ethnic boxes.I believe the US government considers most of the Arab world as "non-Hispanic Caucasian", but I find it really weird to lump myself in with Europeans and the majority of white Americans....culturally, linguistically, etc my background is quite different to the norm. I have no idea whether Arabs are under-represented in law schools (judging by the lack of Arab-related threads on any online forum, I'm guessing we're not OVER-represented, but I could be wrong), and therefore I don't know if my claim is really legitimate in that sense. I personally have never had to qualify my identity as an Arab by choosing exclusively "African" or "Asian" status...but I've always ticked "other" and I'd like a little more clarity. For what its worth I was an active member of my undergrad's African, Arab, and Asian societies (probably not worth much :roll: )I don't want to start a debate about the pros and cons of the URM system, and I don't want to offend anyone by making it seem that I'm treading on some sensitive ground (for example claiming African American status as a "white" guy). I understand that the reason the URM system exists is to help balance against the obstacles faced by African Americans (and other URMs) because of a general education system/society that is simply not balanced and retains certain prejudices and discrimination. I also realize that plenty of groups can claim discrimination in many walks of life...and as an Arab I am not exactly helped out by my ethnicity in a post-9/11 world (tho this never affected education, it certainly affected (and still affects) professional opportunities). If I can claim URM status legitimately, I will do so...but I just want to make sure my ass is covered and that law schools won't see me as some white kid who's trying to weasel his way into a better school by making a dubious claim.So..I know I am Arab American....but does that make me African American? Asian American? Neither?I'd appreciate your thoughts on what I should do
It makes you Arab American or African American or whatever you choose to classify yourself as. The question asks what you identify yourself as. If you think you're African American, check it. If you think you're Caucasian, check it. It's only likely to become an issue for you if you identified as a Caucasian on official forms all your life, and now magically realize you're African American. That might come up during C&F for the bar. From the fact that you're only now asking whether you can identify as a minority, I'm guessing that you never have before and thus you'll probably get a nice committee meeting at the bar when they discover the inconsistency. Not sure why this was posted in this forum rather than the general forums. Nobody here has special insight on this aspect of admissions.
FWIW, I think you may identify as African American as you wish. I know Arabic Egyptians who do, and certainly the term isn't reserved for people who descend from sub-Saharan Africa. That said, if you have lived in Africa and the Middle East, you are probably more like African immigrants than like most people who identify as African American, regardless of your citizenship status.

Buddy unveils Metro e-car
Rock royalty gather for unveiling
Leccy Tech Norwegian electric vehicle (EV) maker Buddy has whipped the dust sheets off its latest car, the Metro.
Buddy's Metro: a three-seater coated in durable Telene plastic
Buddy officially unveiled its Metro at the recent 24th Electric Vehicle Symposium in Stavanger, Norway in the presence of such luminaries as Crown Prince Haakon Magnus of Norway, Morton Harket of popular 80s band a-ha and Norwegian TV weather presenter Siri Kalvig - who already owns one of Buddy's current Classic model e-cars.
The three-seater Metro follows the traditional 'leccy quadracycle route by having a steel chassis and separate body. But, rather than the current Buddy Classic's fibreglass panels, the e-car will be clothed in more durable Telene plastic.
Metro will go for 50-72 miles on a full charge
Like the Classic though, the Metro will ship with a kerosene-powered heater to get everything toasty warm on those bitter Norwegian winter mornings.
The 1020Kg Metro will be powered by a 13.1kWh battery pack - hooked up to a 13kW electric motor - that Buddy's claimed is enough to power the car to a top speed of 80kph (50mph). It'll also be capable of achieving a 0-50kph (0-31mph) "dash" in seven seconds.
Coming to Europe early next year
Although the Metro's standard battery pack will be a lead-acid affair, lithium-ion and nickel-metal hydride packs will apparently also be available.
On a full charge the e-car's said to be capable of between 80 and 120km (50 to 72 miles), depending on battery type, terrain, temperature and driving style.
Buddy's Metro will be available throughout Norway and Scandinavia this December, with European-wide sales scheduled to start early next year. Prices haven't been confirmed yet, but the current Buddy Classic starts at Kr135,000 (£13,400/$21,300/€15,200). ®

Garage Sale - Ohio (2011)
|photo credit Lucas Wright/SDG Newspapers
|Brennan and Jackson setting up their drink stand
When Denise L. of Shelby, Ohio decided to have a garage sale in June, her oldest son Jackson decided to have a drink stand and donate the proceeds to FIRST, because he wanted to find a way to help his younger brother. The Lewis' youngest son, Brennan, is 5 years old and affected with Congenital Bullous Ichthyosiform Erythroderma (CBIE). Brennan's ichthyosis appears to be a spontaneous mutation, as neither of his parents has the gene. Denise also decided to donate the proceeds of her garage sale to FIRST. The 2-day sale was held in mid-June and more than $500 was raised by both ventures.
