Not His Typebymindgames95©
I was meeting close friends John and Ryan at the club. They were bringing Mark, a friend of John's from university who'd recently moved to the city. That might sound like they were trying to hook us up but I'd never needed their help. They knew I'd end the evening with him anyway, as long as he was reasonably good-looking.
He was better, but much too controlled for my tastes. The green-hazel eyes were calm and probing, all at the same time, the mouth with its thin upper lip and full lower lip didn't get a lot of exercise as if he thought through every thing before he spoke, not a single blond strand out of place. That tall built body was still encased in dress-up clothes from work and he barely drank. 28 years of age and already an old man. Why was everyone working in finance so damned correct and uptight?
He seemed almost disinterested in the scene around us, content with focusing on John and Ryan as they played catch up. He appeared equally disinterested in me, not gawking or trying to impress. I got the feeling he was amused by all the attention I was receiving and wasn't sure how I felt about that.
It was a little unsettling too, to talk to someone whose eyes focused so completely on my own without any of the familiar shifting across my face or down my body.
"What do you do?" he asked me shortly after we'd been introduced.
"Modeling," I said briefly.
Anyone else would have said 'oh, you're a model, how exciting'. Not him. Mr.Finance just nodded. I already knew he was a business analyst.
"Paid to lie around and look pretty while the rest of us work hard for a decent living," John smirked.
"Fuck off," I said idly. It was an old game.
My face would probably never be plastered across bill-boards but I was at the stage where there was enough steady work coming in that I didn't have to worry. There had been a tough couple of years after I'd left home where I'd gone the waiting tables route and even been part of the service eye candy behind the bar in clubs like the one I was sitting in but they were long behind me now.
Ryan frowned at me. "You'll be drinking too much again if you don't watch it."
Of us three, he was the family man, the worry-wart.
I raised my glass with a mocking grin and downed what was in it. I was in one of my moods. Restless and edgy. I definitely had to take someone home tonight. I didn't often, the rest-room at the back of the club was perfectly serviceable, in more ways than one. But not today.
The evening wore on. I laughed, I entertained, I flirted with the hopefuls who came trolling. And proceeded to get a nice buzz going. I also listened to Mark reminiscing with John or just talking, reluctantly conceding that razor-sharp intellect.
We were alone at the table. Ryan and John were now out on the dance floor. It was after midnight, time to go home.
I turned to him and placed a hand high up on his thigh. "Want to go home?" It was purely rhetorical.
"No thanks," he said politely.
"They'll understand." A little impatiently, I indicated our friends on the dance floor.
He smiled. "I'm sure." I waited but it seemed he was done.
"Let me guess, you don't fuck on the first day," I mocked. I leaned in closer, my breath washing over his ear, giving him my best camera look. Never failed. "I'd love to change your mind," I whispered.
Fuck, always these damn hoops to jump through, even when they wanted you so bad they were salivating.
"No thanks." Again the mild tone, the disinterest. And he meant it, I could tell.
I leaned back again, mind clearing slightly at these unexpected events, removing my hand from his thigh and watching him, really watching him.
He'd told John he was single. Had he lied?
"You with someone?"
He shook his head. "Not in a while."
He sipped from his glass, eyes moving back to watch the dancing, almost dismissing me.
I stared.
What else?
"Why not?" I asked finally. I wasn't upset, just curious. Whatever it was we'd work around it, and if not, I honestly didn't care, probably take too long to loosen him up in bed anyway. I wanted some fun tonight and there were willing others. I could see the redhead from last week practically bouncing with nervous energy as he lay siege near the door...
"You're not really my type."
That snapped my attention right back. Excuse me? Dark-hair, midnight blue-eyes, washboard abs was not his type? A face that had made a jaded agent's breath catch as I served him drinks five years ago not his type?
I was so startled I let out a disbelieving laugh. "What?"
He raised his brows at me but stayed silent. Oh my god, he meant it. He really meant it.
I could feel the anger starting in a place deep inside, gathering steam, pouring through my veins, filling every part of me, leaving my body almost tingling at the intensity. But damned if I'd let him have the last word.
"Well, uptight corporate whores are not my type either but that's why we'd have done it in the dark."
I got nothing for my pains. No reaction, just this bland look and more raised eye-brows as if he'd half-expected that reaction. That stung more than anything else. Who the fuck did he think he was, thinking he had me figured out in 5 minutes...
Being in front of a camera for a living gives you some acting skills. I used them.
"Oh well," I shrugged. "I feel like a three-some anyway."
I left, taking the red-head and his friend with me.
I worked even harder than usual to please that night, giving an academy performance to the one-man audience in my head. They were delirious with pleasure, I was more hollow than ever.
Of course I saw him again. John and Ryan were my closest friends and they seemed to like him, so that alone meant I had to put up with him. No matter how much he made my teeth hurt. Also he was at the club as often as I was, usually in the company of my friends. Though he did get his fair share of attention, I never saw him do more than casually converse with someone. That pleased me, especially since he had to have heard all about my reputation in bed by then. It wasn't just my looks that got me my fan following.
Most nights we'd all be sitting at a table when I'd receive an offer I couldn't turn down. John would wink slyly and Ryan would look worried. Mark would give me one of those bland looks I was beginning to hate. I'd make sure my latest offer returned from the rest-room weak-kneed and starry-eyed. Prurient bastard. Not his type, my ass.
One night several weeks later we all exited the club together, laughing and giving each other a hard time. As usual, I'd opted to go home alone. Several feet from the entrance was a little alley where light from the street-lamp did not reach.
I smelt Coop before I saw him. He stood half-hidden by the shadows, in his sad excuse of a coat, skin grimy with dirt, matted hair all over the place. He didn't often come by the club. When he did it always meant the same thing.
He grinned at me now, showing a mouthful of yellowed, rotting teeth. "Hey man."
"Hey, you ugly son of a bitch."
He grinned wider, but stayed several feet away reacting, no doubt, to the presence of the others. "It's not too bad tonight." He meant the weather.
"Yep. Burgers are good tonight too. Knock on the kitchen door out back if you feel like it, tell them I sent you. Say," I dug around in my coat, "you want some smokes?"
"You gave in again? Three years you b'in trying to quit."
I shrugged. "Some day, Coop. Can't let my agent catch me though."
He pocketed the smokes I handed him, shuffling cautiously slower to get them and hurrying away with a 'See ya, Matt.'
"Enabler," Ryan accused.
In a way, he was right but I had much rather Coop spend the little money he got on food than on the cigarettes he craved.
Instead I sent Ryan a lascivious look. "Some day you have to try a guy with most teeth missing."
He shuddered while John and I laughed.
"So you smoke now?" Mark asked quietly.
"You heard the man," I said mockingly. "Three years of trying to quit."
I refused to explain further. None of his business if I chose to have with me packs of cigarettes I didn't need. I turned my attention to Ryan and John who were teasing each other about dentures. I joined in.
Thanksgiving was coming up. The city was primed for the start of the holiday season. I hated every one of them. John and Ryan always made sure I knew I had a place at their table but I never stayed in the city to ever take them up on their offer. Instead I went on a vacation taking someone with me, occasionally several someones, and returning only when it was all over. I made sure it was worth their while too. It was usually the biggest party of their lives.
The topic at the table that night of course centered around menus and invites and the big F word. Family.
Mark wasn't going to be able to visit home this time so Ryan had insisted he go over to their house. John's family came over mostly for Christmas and Ryan didn't have any left.
"What about your family?" Mark asked me.
"What about them?" I returned.
"Aren't they coming over?"
I wrinkled my forehead. "Not unless they have some sort of homing device on me somewhere," I said.
John laughed. Ryan stared down at his glass.
"You don't talk to your family?" Mark asked. That's right, be judgmental ass-hole.
"No, do you?" I asked squarely.
"Yes." He watched me silently before saying "What about them? Don't your parents call you?"
"Let's see. My father's probably praying for my demon-inhabited queer soul in between praying for my mother to remember her duty and return home and my mother," I grinned, "probably hasn't stopped running from us, even after 20 years."
John laughed like he was supposed to, Mark just looked at me thoughtfully. Ryan changed the subject.
The vacation was a disaster. The guy was hunky and charming, even sweet. It did no good. The restlessness was worse. I'd never waited for the days to pass like this before.
The day I got home, John and Ryan came to see me at my apartment. It was tradition.
When I opened the door for them, Ryan held up two big bags of food.
"Welcome home," he smiled.
"I just came for souvenirs," John said grinning at me. I joshed him on the arm, then looked at Mark over his head, nodding curtly.
He stopped just inside the door.
"So what do you think?" I asked him challengingly because I could see his eyes wandering over everything, assessing, probing.
He looked at me. "Suits you," he said cryptically then strolled into the kitchen where Ryan was unloading the food.
Suits me? What the hell did that mean? I followed him seething quietly because it seemed like I'd never beat him in this game.
My living arrangements always surprised the people who saw it. The neighborhood was far from fancy. It wasn't a designer-dressed model's apartment. Actually I was still living in the third apartment I'd rented after moving to the city. It was one of two that was creaking at the joints, well-lived, with a tiny balcony and French-style railings. I loved it. It had character and it had Eric.
I could see Mark studying the photographs and the drawings taped on the refrigerator door. Some were of Ryan and John, most were of a little boy with black eyes and a shy smile.
"Who's that?"
"Him," I said then paused dramatically. "I'm waiting for to attain legal status." Actually he was the reason I didn't bring guys home. Strangers made him nervous.
I heard John chortle in the living room but Ryan rolled his eyes. "That's his kid."
Mark did the smallest of double-takes, looking at me with his eye-brows raised. I grudgingly explained. "Neighbor's kid. Lives downstairs."
Mark studied the pictures. "He's young."
"Seven," I said, trying not to sound proud.
John wandered over and stood leaning on the kitchen wall. "Abusive father," he explained briefly. "Took off few years ago, thank God. Michele works very hard and Matt here," he looked at me fondly, "steps in for Eric when he can."
I faked modesty and he made a gagging sound.
"Is no-one going to eat?" Ryan complained.
Later as we left my place, Eric came running out of his apartment. He'd probably heard the footsteps on the stairs through the walls and now stopped abashed at being confronted with so many faces.
"Hi big guy," I said smiling at him.
"Hi, I had holidays too," he told me shyly. I'd said good-bye before I left on my vacation.
I held my hand out and he slid his little hand into mine, gripping it tightly.
"Hi Eric," Ryan said and John reached over to ruffle his hair. He accepted their advances now, having seen them with me so often.
"This is Mark," I told him and he mumbled in response to Mark's kind greeting.
"Are you going out?" he asked me, expression a little pleading.
"Only for a bit. I'll be back soon."
He brightened. "Will you come and I can show you my new toys I got from Santa?"
"No," I said. "You'll make me play your boring games and I have interesting things to do."
At one time, he'd cringed from all teasing, retreating inward. Now he tugged at my arm and jumped from one foot to the other.
"Uncle Mattttttttt," he said. Then, "Can we watch TV?" That meant he'd gotten told off for it.
"Are you in trouble?" I asked him sternly.
"No," he widened his eyes. Then with true child-like deviousness he added "We can watch TV and you can ask mom for ice-cream."
"Then I'll get in trouble."
"Say please," he instructed seriously.
I pretended to consider. "Then I get a bigger share."
He chewed on his lower lip. "Maybe you'll get full and I'll have to finish it for you," he said, sounding hopeful.
"Brat." I grabbed him affectionately round his neck and he squealed, then ran off.
"Told you," Ryan said to Mark, looking amused. "His kid."
I looked at Mark defiantly and to my astonishment he reached over and brushed my back lightly in what I'd have called a gesture of affection coming from anyone else, smiling as he did. Then he walked ahead, leaving me staring at his back.
I had to leave town for a shoot. Frigid cold and they wanted shirtless. The photographer demanded freshly fallen snow. It took three days to get the conditions right. Five inches of pure white snow against a hillside and the obligatory brunette, blonde and black to help sell over-priced perfume. I couldn't wait to get back home. I was so restless I drove everyone crazy.
I went over to the club as soon as I got back. It was early and I knew it would be a while till everyone else got there. Flirting helped pass the time quite nicely as the club slowly filled up. Ryan and John arrived eventually and I waved them over. We chatted. I bitched about the other models and how cold it had been while we drank our beer.
"Oh yeah, Mark has a date," John said brightly.
I stared. "What?" I said stupidly.
"Hmm, out with him right now." He laughed. "About time, I say."
It became hard to swallow. Ryan glared at John then shot me a half-glance.
"Actually I think he couldn't say no. The guy's in the business." He made a vague motion of his hand.
The thought of Mark having trouble saying no was almost hysterical. If he was out with this guy, it was because he wanted to be.
"Poor Mark," I said mockingly.
I stayed 15 minutes longer. Counting each minute in my head then casually turning to them. "I think I'll take off."
As I was leaving, Pete came up to me. Sliding an arm around my waist, he gave me a sultry look from those beautiful black eyes. 'Take me with you?"
"No," I shook my head, smiling so it wouldn't sting.
"Come on," he wheedled.
I growled in my throat and slapped that firm behind, making him squeal. "No. You're going to exhaust me and I need my rest for tomorrow," I lied.
He grinned, then left with a cheeky squeeze of my ass. I was almost sorry I had sent him away but knew I wasn't going to change my mind. I went home and got drunk.
The next day I walked. And walked. It was like I almost couldn't bear to be inside my own skin. There was no work to distract me either. Eventually my restlessness drove me to the club again.
I sat at the bar by myself staring down at my drink. It was only late afternoon, too early for the usual crowd which suited me just fine. I planned to be gone well before they got there so I wouldn't have to make conversation.
At some point I looked up into the mirror in front of me and saw Mark and his date sitting in a booth behind me. I watched them.
The guy was older, around thirty-five maybe. Not a handsome face but certainly with character. Body that was a little too tall and broad, and not all of it well-muscled. Clothes that spoke subtly of power and wealth. They clearly had lots to talk about. Business, no doubt.
I saw Mark getting up for more drinks. He came to stand beside me. I had to say something.
"So that's your type?" I asked, smiling spitefully.
He gave me a mild glance, then left taking the drinks with him. I went back to staring at my drink. I couldn't leave now. I'd have to stay longer.
Twenty minutes, I told myself. I started to count them off in my head slowly. When I reached 18 in my head, I saw them getting up to leave. Damn it!
I added another 10 minutes to the count.
They left. I imagined them outside, hailing a cab or perhaps they'd driven there. They'd get in, the car would pull away, get further and further from the club. Perhaps when it reached the corner, I could leave.
Mark walked back in and headed straight to me. He pried the glass out of my hands, placed it on the counter.
"Go home," he said.
"I can't," I said. "I've been promised great sex."
He didn't look very amused. "You need sleep," he told me. "Go home, get some sleep."
I hadn't slept well, even with all the alcohol. I swear when he said that though I wanted to put my head on the counter and sleep right there. We stared to each-other and he made a rough sound in his throat.
"I got you a cab, it's outside. Now go home."
I laughed shortly. "Cause God forbid you come with me." I reached blindly for my glass.
He knocked my hand away. "I have a big meeting to wrap up."
"Hmm," I said, "I saw. Pretty big." I had a brainwave. "Suits you," I told him, smiling. I felt damn proud of myself.
His eyes turned violent in a way I'd never seen. He threw some money down on the counter, gripped my arm painfully and dragged me off my chair, across the club and into the cab. I could see Mr.Money-bags looking curiously at us. He didn't wait around once I was in. I watched him get into a car with his big meeting as the cab pulled away and closed my eyes. God, I wanted to sleep.
I stayed away from the club after that. It was what I should have done in the first place. Every time Ryan called, I pleaded work and rang off quickly. My evenings I spent with Eric, which delighted him. During the day, I either worked or walked. I had randomly decided on a no-alcohol policy. It didn't help anyway, it never really did.
Two weeks passed. My birthday was coming up. Usually I threw myself a party, invited everybody I knew, told them to bring friends. It was the mother of all parties, bodies everywhere. This year I just wanted to hide. The thought of turning 25 made me sick. I'm a model. 25 was getting on in an industry that worshiped tight skin. And I hadn't exactly been stinting on the vices. Sooner, rather than later, all that abuse would start to show on camera. At least I'd been smart enough to stay away from drugs.
Naturally I couldn't hold my parties at my place so it was always in Ryan and John's apartment. If I didn't call about the arrangements soon, they would.
I picked a time when I knew no-one would be home and left a message saying I was going away. For a private party I said. They'd probably think it was one of my vacations-with-company. I said I'd call when I got back and we'd celebrate.

I doubt it. My packages are intended to be installed in parallel with the RHEL4 packages, and have no impact on any packages supplied by RHEL. I run nss_ldap from RHEL4 (4.6) on all my production LDAP servers that run my 2.3 packages, without problems. > I cannot compile the software on my system as it is a partial install for > clients of ours and does not get delivered with compiler software.

It is unnecessary, the nss_ldap built against RHEL's 2.2 libraries is adequate. Maybe you would like to provide some configuration details, some example output when you use openldap utilities to search your server etc. Regards, Buchan

From K J M Varma
Beijing, Jun 7 (PTI) As China and the US concluded their two-day key annual strategic talks here today, China insisted on consensus and full discussion within the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) to admit India into the elite grouping.
"Members within the group still differ on the accession of countries which are not party states to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT)," Chinese Foreign Ministry said in a written response to a PTI query.
The ministry was responding to a question on India securing Switzerlands support on the NSG and whether the issue figured in the Strategic and Economic Dialogue with US.
"China stands for continuous and full discussions within the group on this issue in order to forge consensus and make a decision based on agreement," the Ministry said, adding that it has been "explicitly" articulated Beijings position to the Indian media in recent weeks.
The Ministry, however, did not respond to the question whether the issue was discussed with the US during the strategic talks which covers all aspects of the bilateral ties and multilateral issues of interest to China and the US.
While the US has backed Indias inclusion in the 48- member NSG, China is reportedly supporting Pakistan though it maintains that Islamabad too is not a signatory to the NPT.
The issue was expected to figure in the plenary meeting of the NSG on June 9 in Vienna.
The US-China strategic talks was attended among others by Secretary of State John Kerry.
In his remarks after the conclusion of the talks, Kerry mostly touched differences relating to the South China Sea dispute as well as mutual position on the nuclear issues relating to North Korea.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry also reacted guardedly to the recent remarks by Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar at theShangri-La Dialogue in Singapore.
"China holds a consistent and clear position on the South China Sea (SCS)issue," it said.
"While firmly upholding territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, China is committed to resolving disputes peacefully through consultation and negotiation, managing differences by establishing rules and mechanisms, achieving win-win results through development and cooperation, and safeguarding the freedom of navigation and overflight as well as peace and stability in the South China Sea," it said.
"China is poised to work alongside regional countries to maintain regional peace and stability, achieve economic prosperity and share development dividends," it said.
In his comments on the SCS, Parrikar had said, "we have traditional links with the countries in the South China Sea. More than half (of) our trade passes through its waters".
"While we do not take a position on territorial disputes, which should be resolved peacefully without the threat or use of force, we firmly uphold freedom of navigation and overflight in accordance with international law, in particular the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea," he had said.

It is not news that individual doctors practice style is a more important variable then patients' own preferences in influencing the care they receive at the end of life. But these survey results should be shocking.
Another July 2015 study also shows that medical orders were "incongruent" and "discordant" with patients' previously stated preferences.
Earlier studies similarly demonstrated that while patients with ADs are less likely to receive cardiopulmonary resuscitation, they otherwise receive similar life-sustaining treatments compared to matched patients without AD.

Perseverance in Hope at Joseph's Home, Cleveland Pride Parade Rained Out, PFLAG in Old Stone Church, Victory Day in Estonia
We attended many events that could have been labeled: "Cleveland Pride." On Friday, June 26th, we attended "Perseverance in Hope" the annual Joseph's Home Benefit Luncheon which was held at Window's on the River. As the program notes stated, "Joseph's Home is the only organization in Northeast Ohio dedicated to helping acutely ill homeless men recover their health and successfully transition to permanent housing." We shared a table with Mr. Paul Siemborski, a principal with Westlake, Reed and Leskosky, an architectural firm. Mr. Siemborski recalled that Margaret W. Wong and Associates once helped his office find an interpreter when they were in need of one. We also knew Dr. Michael Schoop from a recent Horizon Science Academy breakfast that we both attended. Sitting just to the left side of us were Dr. Lindsay S. English, Ph.D, Dean of Academic Affairs and Ms. Denise McCory, Dean of Student Affairs both from Tri-C Metropolitan Campus. Cleveland City Council President Kevin Kelley acted as the emcee for the program because he respected Joseph's Home for its positive impact on the Cleveland community. Another thing he said was that when he was coming of age the topic of homelessness was talked about much more often that it is now; in fact candidates for the U.S. Presidency discussed once it but in 2008 and 2012 he couldn't remember any reference to it in the Presidential campaigns. Thus, he was very grateful to Joseph's Home for helping raise awareness around this issue. The opening remarks were given by Ms. Kathy Heigle and Ms. Nadine Ezzie, respectively the Chair and Vice Chair of Joseph's Home Board of Directors who said that we were all there on this day to celebrate hope because in times of need hope is the bridge to the confidence that things will be better. Our good friend Sister Judith Ann Karam, Congregational Leader of the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine gave the invocation in which she expressed appreciation for Ms. Georgette Jackson who will be stepping down as the Executive Director of Joseph's Home after 8 years of service on June 30th. At this time there was recognition of the nine Sisters of Charity or the "Dream Team" whose research, fundraising and planning finally resulted in the founding of Joseph's Home in 2000. Sister Evelyn Flowers, one of the leading "dreamers" talked about how they had to work for 4.5 years to make Joseph's Home a reality. A plaque which will be on display at Joseph's Home was presented in their honor and all nine sisters except one who had passed were present. The keynote speaker was Mr. Sam Rutigliano, who was head coach of the Cleveland Browns from 1978 to 1984. One of his most noteworthy accomplishments was making the Browns the first to comply with the league mandate that each team hire a psychiatric professional specializing in substance abuse. He took things one step farther, however, when he created the "Inner Circle" a substance abuse program for his players that promised complete anonymity. Mr. Rutigliano said that life without hope "is like running a race without a finish line. Among the other things that he said in his very short speech were that it is one thing to talk about doing the right thing but it is our challenge to do the right thing when confronted with immense pressure. He believed that the #1 untreated disease in the world is "ego" and that the yardstick that Jesus Christ would use in defining greatness is one's service to others. He recalled one being invited to speak at an important banquet where the themes were to be "heroes" and "character." Well, he considered good character to be like good soup, "one always fines it at home." He reiterated that a good measurement for character is how much one has done to empower others. He realized that at age 83 there are "fewer days in back of me than there are in front of me" but his best days were still yet to come. Mr. Rutigliano concluded by saying that the big motivators in his life have been Jesus Christ and adversity. Lastly, Ms. Joan Gallagher, the founding director of Joseph's Home, took to the podium to pay tribute to Ms. Georgette Jackson. She said that under Ms. Jackson's tenure hundreds of lives have been improved but her impact stretched beyond that. In short, "who you are has changed everyone. A shining example of what the healing work of Jesus Christ means." As he closed the luncheon, Council President Kelley told the attendees, who have contributed a lot of their personal and financial resources towards making Joseph's Home a success, that "friends like you make healing a realistic hope." Like almost everyone that we know, we were absolutely thrilled by the Supreme Court decision that was announced on Friday that made marriage equality a reality because we know people who are both straight and LGBT who have worked long and hard to make this dream a reality for years if not decades. We understand that there was a very well-attended rally on the steps of Cleveland City Hall earlier in the day so after the Joseph's Home luncheon, we decided to head over there to see if anyone was still around. Right next door to City Hall on the green area directly across the street from the Convention Center a tent had been erected by the United Church of Christ (UCC) which, in collaboration with people from the LGBT Center and Equality Ohio, was helping to officiate the marriages that couples had waited so long have happen. Among those working on this were Mr. Mike Schuenemeyer who was the key officiator and our friend Mr. Craig Hoffman from the LGBT Center who was doing the paperwork. If they wanted, a couple could go to the courthouse and obtain a marriage license and then come back and be married here on the beautiful lawn on a nice day weatherwise. We watched a marriage of two very happy women and we were very much moved by it. Also stopping off here were Ms. Mary Zaller and Ms. Lana Moresky. We talked for a moment with Ms. Emily Schappacher with the UCC who told us that that her church was having a convention in Cleveland at this time and that many people planned to take part in Cleveland Pride on Saturday. She also told us that the UCC was the first big church to come out in favor of marriage equality and we commend them for this. On Saturday, June 27th, we were very sorry that the 2015 annual Cleveland Pride Parade and Festival had to be cancelled due to foul weather but after driving in the pouring rain to get there we were almost relieved because it would have been very difficult in such conditions for it to be a fun, coming together time. Margaret W. Wong and Associates was all set to table there and we had our car packed up with a new canopy, our collapsible table, a stool to sit on, all of our literature neatly arranged in baggies inside a plastic tub, four heavy stone bricks to duct tape to the posts of our canopy so it would not be blown away in a gust of wind, three big bags of clementines from Heinen's to hand out to those who stopped by our table, and we had on our new bright yellow rain two-piece rain outfit that Ms. Wong bought for us in anticipation of a manageable drizzle. Upon arriving at Voinovich Park, the guard informed us that the festival had been cancelled as of 8:15am when the sad news was posted on Facebook. We double-checked our email via our cell phone and discovered that a message had been sent out while we were in route. Fortunately, though the Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG) brunch in the basement of the Old Stone Church was still on so that's where we headed. As it turned out the basement was crowded but not so much to be uncomfortable and, of course, everyone agreed that the parade having to be cancelled was a bummer indeed (particularly in light of the SCOTUS decision on behalf of marriage equality announced the day before) but we were all grateful for the fellowship in a nice, dry location and for the good food. Mr. Sharon Groh-Wargo thanked all of the groups that were represented there including the United Church of Christ, Metrohealth, LGBT Center of Cleveland, Planned Parenthood, Pride Foundation, Human Rights Campaign, and the Mount Sinai Congregational Church. She also mentioned that Margaret W. Wong and Associates sent a representative too for which we were very grateful. Although there was no orchestra or band, two people went to the microphone to sing songs for us. Mr. Wayne Mesker from the Alive Inside Foundation the song from the Young Bloods titled "Get Together" and Mr. Reggie Kelly from the Mount Sinai Church sang "A Wonderful World" and dedicated it to all of us. A very moving moment came when two men named Art and Jes testified about how they were married in the Old Stone Church six years ago and thus were the first LGBT couple to be married there. They also thanked the Old Stone Church for letting PFLAG have their brunch there for the last six years. Another noteworthy happening was when a PFLAG mom named Michelle announced that today was her birthday so, accordingly, we all sang "Happy Birthday" to her as she blew out the candle on her cupcake. As far as same sex marriage now having to be recognized in Ohio (as well as the rest of the country), one person grinned and said that "I left my marriage in Connecticut but now it followed me here!" On Sunday, June 28th, we started our day at the West Shore Unitarian Universalist Church which was giving a service devoted to LGBT Pride to parallel the planned parade and festival on Saturday that had to be cancelled due to stormy weather. The co-ministers, Revs. Kathleen C. Rolenz and Wayne B. Arnason, were away at a convention for Unitarian leaders but they spoke to us via a recorded message in which they expressed their joy over the SCOTUS decision and wished that they could be here with us. In fact, they said when the SCOTUS decision was announced on Friday the convention's response was overwhelming and there was literally dancing in the aisles. In their absence, the service was expertly conducted by Mr. Bobby Withrow, a young member of the congregation. Mr. Withrow said that he was "honored to help plan this service for many reasons: I get to perform in front of a captive audience, it is fun, I get to help celebrate the diversity of sexual orientation and gender identities, and I could help spread inclusiveness." The program largely consisted of the sharing of experiences of either being LGBT or being an advocate for the LGBT. Among the people telling stories were a LGBT couple who have been together since 1972. They recalled how difficult it was for them in the early years not being able to hold hands in public and being very careful what they said at work and who they invited to their home. Another man talked about how much it meant to him when in 1990 the West Shore Church voted to become one of the first "Welcoming Congregations" for LGBT members in the United States and the first one in Ohio. It was one of the first places where he felt that he truly belonged. One woman who was a very strong ally of the LGBT community recalled her first Pride parade and its overwhelming ambiance of love. She thought it was great to be able to celebrate humanity and to accept people as they were. She believed that she was very privileged to be white, middle class and straight and therefore had a responsibility to stand up for those who were not. She concluded by saying that she stood on the side of love and on Friday, love won on Friday via the announcement of the SCOTUS decision. Another person recalled growing up in suburban Dallas when a lesbian couple moved in down the street. Her parents made friends with them but the rest of the neighborhood was incensed and one person even refused to accept their UPS delivery for them. She said that "I often think about and am in awe of just how brave these women were but I know they were probably a little afraid and a little lonely. Like all of us they just wanted a home and a community." At the end of the service, Mr. Withrow said, "what better way to understand Pride and what it means than to hear from us who have experienced it. For me, Pride is about accepting yourself and being true to yourself. Pride is about growing in confidence. Pride is about being an activist for yourself." Our last three events took place around the same time so we had to move quickly just to make parts of them. The first of these was a fundraiser brunch given by Ohio State Rep. Kent Smith at Tizzano's Party Center in Euclid. We stayed for a half hour and got to talk to several of our friends including Ohio State Senator Kenny Yuko who invited us to an event that he is having on July 12th and Mr. Ryan Miday who offered to help us get a table at the annual festival at St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church in Seven Hills this August. Mr. Smith planned to speak later on after more people arrived but it shared his notes with us and we saw most of what he was going to say concerned economic inequality in Ohio. We also had a good visit with Mr. Phil DiBianca who, upon hearing that we work with Margaret W. Wong and Associates, said that he believed that some politicians play upon people's fears about immigration get them to vote for them and thus create unrest and division where there should be unity. Mr. DiBianca reminded us that in the story of the Good Samaritan, the Samaritan was of a different culture and faith than the person that he saved. Immigration came up again at our next event which was the annual celebration of Victory Day in Estonia held at the Estonia Garden in the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. Victory Day is actually June 23rd and it is the celebration of the key victory in the 1919 Battle of Vonnu in which the Estonians and their allies defeated the German forces trying to re-establish Baltic German Control over the region. We were welcomed by Ms. Erika Puussaar and Ms. Paula Tubalkain who received us as special guests and arranged for our name to be read during the ceremonies that were conducted by Mr. Toomas Tubalkain whose parents fled Estonia to Sweden, where he was born, in 1944 to escape the Soviets. Eventually his family traveled to Canada before finally settling in the United States. Ms. Ingrida Bublys, Honorary Consul of the Republic of Lithuania, was to have been the keynote speaker but unfortunately became ill and couldn't be here so Mr. Tubalkain put a fine presentation together in a very short period of time. Mr. Tubalkain began his speech by saying that "the symbols that you see in the Estonian Cultural Garden, the blue, black and white flag, the monument quoting from Kalevipoeg the words of hope for a free nation of Estonians and the American flag are all positive reminders of how lucky we are to live in a time when our homeland is free and we are free to prosper in a nation that welcomed us and our parents as immigrants fleeing oppression after the Soviet occupation of our homeland after World War II...This garden now 49 years old is a symbol, reminding us and Cleveland of the hopes and aspirations of the Estonian people." He also paid tribute to the Cleveland Cultural Gardens as a whole by saying "these gardens are cultural, educational and historic but not political. We celebrate the fact that our ethnic diversity is welcomed by the larger community and that we can help beautify the park through our plantings, landscape and sculpture. This positive manifestation of ethnic pride among diversity is what has made America great." Mr. Tubalkian then talked about the speech that President Toomas Hendrick Ilves recently gave on Victory Day in Kardla, Estonia in which immigration was a topic that figured prominently. We were amazed at how the President's speech closely mirrored our own situation here in the United States. Among the things President Ives said was that at this time some of Estonia's NATO allies are having a difficult time because they are "overwhelmed by refugees fleeing the unrest in their homelands" but we (i.e. the Estonians) don't seem to understand what they are going through. Instead "we hear and read about fears and hate speeches, insults and threats." What ISIS is doing now recalls the time in 1944 that 7% of the Estonian people fled their homes in 1944. President Ilves urged the his fellow Estonians to remember people who had fled to Estonia from oppressed countries and were now outstanding citizens who have made wonderful contributions to their society. The President went on to say, "we consider the world-famous Skype to be our own. But do we consider the engineers from Guatemala and the Dominican Republic who have excelled at IT developments there as our own, or how about the Hindus, Taiwanese, Singaporeans, Malaysians or designers of other nationalities that work at Estonia's best IT companies?" Mr. Tubalkain, himself, said, "I believe President Ilves struck a note that we as Americans can understand. Do we fear the immigrant, fleeing from the horrors of war and oppressive occupation by the barbarians? He reminded me that my parents, as well as his, were literally in the same boat. We have been blessed that they U.S. welcomed us as immigrants. Can we or other civilized nations deny that blessing to others?" (Mr. Tubalkain later told us that President Ilves grew up in the United States and he and the President once attended the same Boy Scout camp.) Mr. Tubalkain's speech was followed by a lovely musical performance by Ms. Michelle Geller who sang "This Land is My Land", "The Way We Were", "Tell Me On Sunday Please", "Don't Rain on My Parade", "Whistle Down the Wind", and "God Bless America". Afterwards, Ms. Erika Puussaar called the children together to take part in the flower ceremony in front of the monument celebrating those who died for Estonia's Independence. She said that it was only appropriate for the young to do this because they are the ones who must carry on after we are gone by telling their own children about our culture, history, and traditions. Our last event for Sunday was the annual steak roast at St. Colman Church on West 65th Street. By the time we got there, things were winding down but we still were able to obtain some salad for a late lunch and were able to hear the announcements of several raffle prizes. We said hello to Father Bob Begin and Ms. Eileen Kelly who we know from her work in the church office. We were able to have a couple of good conversations, such as the one we had with a man whose family had immigrated to the United States from Wexler thus making him one of the few people of Irish ancestry in Cleveland who does not have their roots in Mayo. We also talked to a person who used to live in a communal dwelling many years ago with a sizable group of people who recently had a reunion. He looks back upon the whole experience with great warmth and tenderness. He, of course, now has his own home and likes it just fine but can't help preferring the old days, cramped though they may have been.

346 - 349
This is the last of the 340's and it is a large section. A number of items I just discarded because they had already been updated by something else. And, as in the previous section, there are a number of things, particularly the Nolo books, that need to be updated.
Some new additions here. When we discontinued the WestLaw NJ database, we got new printed materials from the New Jersey Practice Series that will be updated on a regular basis. This set includes the 8 volume Wills & Administration, the 3 volume Landlord Tenant, the 3 volume Family Practice (all with forms), and the 7 volume Legal Forms. Our WestLaw rep said this would replace the green New Jersey Forms Legal and Business, which we are no longer updating. It costs about $550 per year. The rep said that we would no longer need it with the new stuff. but I'm willing to reconsider if you think we need it as well. Otherwise this will be discarded.
A couple of items that came automatically with our new WestLaw package: Neighboring Property Owners and West's New Jersey Law Finder, which is like the 3 volume NJSA index, only not as good.
As you know, we are discontinuing the USCA, but are continuing the NJSA and NJAC. So we need to get rid of the entire USCA, because it is of little use without the updating service. It is also useless to offer it to another library, because the great expense and value of this is the updating service. So it goes.
The other sets on that back wall that are probably of little use to us are West's New Jersey Digest (brown set, covers cases pre 1954) and the 2nd edition (red set, covers cases since 1954 to 2004 when the updating stopped). They were donated to us by a law firm in 2004 without the updating service. They actually do have some value, although I have never used them, nor have I been asked for them. They give specific cases that have been decided on various topics, for example, under "Eviction" Chelsea Hotel Corp v Gelles, 1942 ruled that an eviction of a tenant by the landlord suspends the obligation of tenant to pay rent..." and so on. Hmmm....what do you think?
Take a look at the Supreme Court material on the middle shelf. Should we get rid of any of it? I couldn't decide--I thought each had value.
Getting rid of the USCA, and relocating the NYT index and the Book Review Digests will make a lot of room on that back wall for our new legal reference section. Specific sections would be immigration, wills and estates, family law, landlord tenant. Let me know of other possible sections. Sections will be color coded rather than recataloged. Also, I'm going to be checking catalogs for face out shelves, etc.
Any ideas here also would be appreciated. Since we are through the 330s and 340s I think we can go right ahead with our plans for those two areas.

GS says: I think we should always have the most up to date NOLO guides. In recent years, Reference has fallen down on this a bit and some of the more recent guides are in the circulating collection. Are we planning on duplicating what is in the circulating collection, having one copy circ and one reference?
I think two more categories for separation should be books related to starting a business (with all related books together) and another for copyright. We also have quite a lot of books on inventions/patents.
I have not really been asked questions that would use the New Jersey Digests. I have sent people back there to take a look at them but have no idea if that is what they really wanted or not.
There was a time when lots of patrons wanted court case (either New Jersey or Supreme Court) information for school projects. This seems to have faded away a bit but I wonder if it will come back. I think we should update those titles that we can, such as the Oxford Guide to United States Supreme Court Decisions.
I think we should put some type of dummy of the shelf in the forms section to let people know about the CD-ROM 101 Law Forms for Personal Use that is downstairs in the CD ROM Collection. Some libraries have online access to legal forms and we might want to consider something like that. I do believe a product does exist for New Jersey Forms. We used to be able to get forms through one of our other databases but it is gone now.

Of the Supreme Court titles, I'd like to see us get the latest editions of Oxford Guide and CQ. If we can't spend the $400 on the 2004 edition, then perhaps the 1996 now and the 2012(?) when it comes out.
I recommend that we put Jersey Justice in circ.
Even though we can get state law digests from martindale.com, National Survey of State Laws is much easier to use for cross-state comparisons. I'd like to see us get the new one when it comes out, but I don't think it makes sense to buy the 2007. If others think we should just rely on martindale.com, I don't have a problem with that.
New Jersey Rules of Court are available on the State Judiciary's web site. I don't think it makes sense to keep getting them in print. The Oceana book on small claims courts is much too general, and besides, the Judiciary site has all the information that someone thinking of filing in small claims court in New Jersey should need.
I must say that I have strong misgivings about our having professional legal sources like New Jersey Practice. Generally, I think we should only have them if at least one of us—and preferably all of us—can explain to our patrons how to use them and how the information in them may be relevant to their question, as well as what information they don't contain without which what they do contain is insufficient, and therefore may lead the patron to forming a conclusion that could do him or her legal harm. (Sorry for the unwieldy sentence.) I feel comfortable directing someone to the New Jersey Statutes and the Administrative Code, and showing them how to access the U.S. Code online. But I have only a vague understanding of case law research. I know that it involves more than looking at New Jersey Practice (even assuming that you know what it is you are looking for), but what I don't know is what to tell the patron who needs to know what other sources he should consult. My lack of legal expertise makes me nervous, not only because of liability ccncerns, but because I may be doing the patron a huge disservice.
What I usually do when faced with a legal question is suggest that the patron look at sources like the Nolo books that are written for the general public. I explain to him that they are designed to give a general overview of the topic, and that what they say may or may not reflect current New Jersey law. I suggest to him that he consult with an attorney or a law librarian if he needs a definitive answer to a legal question.
So, to cut to the chase, I think we should save the money we're paying for New Jersey Practice, and just refer people to the State Law Library if they need information that can only be obtained from professional tools.
As for legal contract forms that one finds in New Jersey Forms and New Jersey Practice, my experience has been that people don't want forms in this format. What they want are the ready-to-execute forms like those that one can buy at stationery and office supply stores. The legal forms available in New Jersey Practice are not, to my mind, sufficient reason for us to continue to get this set. The same liability concerns pertain to recommending that patrons use these forms to draw up a contract that could have major financial consequences for them. I'd prefer we just refer them to Hinkson's or Kinko's if they insist on not using an attorney. For Nolo and other non-professional sources of legal forms, I would use the same disclaimer--that the forms may or may not reflect current New Jersey law and should be used only as general guides.

I have to disagree with the recommendation to discontinue New Jersey Practice. The discussion over librarian liability has been a continuous one. While, I am a huge proponent of all things NOLO, in making legal topics palatable and understandable to the masses, I think it's important to have professional legal sources available for those who wish to dig deeper. This can be especially true for state-specific resources.
Clearly, when we refer customers to legal materials, we should verbally inform them that we are not legal advisors, nor can we tell them what forms to use, no matter how much they may demand this.
Speaking from personal experience, when I needed to engage in a legal proceeding, even though I hired a lawyer, I wanted to be sure I had all of the information available to me, and I sought information from NOLO, NJ Practice, and whatever resources I could find. It's a matter of literacy, really.
I'd like to see us keep this resource, and others like it, when possible. Even if we cannot fully understand the language, that is the language of the courts and it could empower some of our customers.
We're not counselors or lawyers and as long as we make this clear, I don't believe there should be a problem. If someone does persist in getting an opinion about something of a legal nature, by all means, do refer them to the State Law Library, or another law library.

I think Kristin's points are well-taken and very well expressed. I'm sure that many of our patrons are capable of using New Jersey Practice appropriately and benefiting from the information it contains. It's the other people I'm concerned about. But if others feel we should have this source, I won't fuss.
I thought I'd see if there are any professional guidelines on the topic. The best I've found so far are on ALA's site: http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/
They don't really address what kinds of sources are appropriate for general users, but they have some things to say about disclaimers and staff competency that we may want to think about.

Los Angeles: Popular chat show host Ellen DeGeneres left actors Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone embarrassed by questioning them about their relationship.
"The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Rise of Electro" co-stars, who have been sharing a romantic off-screen chemistry since 2011, appeared on the show Thursday with Jamie Foxx.
Foxx also played his part well by joking about the couple, saying: "What do you guys do? I mean do you guys stay in separate rooms or ... I've been wanting to know this for a while. I've been wanting to know what do you guys do?
"I ain't trying to get in your business. I just wanna know what y'all do."
Garfield tried to handle the query smartly by saying: "Here's the thing, you know the answer to that because we've been sharing the same bedroom."
To that, DeGenres said: "Oh, it's you two. I see,'' adding, ''You're the couple that everybody talks about."
She even commented on their "great chemistry".
Stone brushed it off, laughed and steered the conversation towards the movie.

The Best Revolutions Are Those that Are Resolved out Of Fear of Fighting, Not Those that Are Fought.

The best way to prevent a violent revolution is to submit an equitable proposal for the resolution of conflicts, and to create the absolute certainty that the status quo will end violently otherwise. The best revolutions are those that are resolved out of fear of fighting, not those that are fought.

Bracken: How America's Cities May Explode In Violence Posted on September 3, 2012 | 425 Comments Illustration: Bracken's CW2 Cube; click to enlarge From Matt Bracken: In response to recent articles in mainstream military journals discussing the use of the U.S. Army to quell insurrections on American soil, I offer an alternate vision of the future. Instead of a small town in the South as the flash point, picture instead a score of U.S. cities in the thrall of riots greater than those experienced in Los Angeles in 1965 (Watts), multiple cities in 1968 (MLK assassination), and Los Angeles again in 1992 (Rodney King).

"Why Have Our Marvelous Brains Formulated Two Diametrically Opposite Explanations?"
Question: "Why have our marvelous brains formulated two diametrically opposite explanations?" Answer: Cognitive Division of Labor: Predator (action, dominance, science) — vs.– Prey (mindfulness, submission, religion). Problem: Demand for mindfulness increases with uncertainty. Post tribal life removes resource uncertainty at the cost of social uncertainty (female herd equality, male pack hierarchy). Scale increases uncertainty. Production cycles decrease availability of positive reinforcement (status signals, fitness signals). Consumerism buys signals, at cost of increase in isolation. Diversity (market polity) increases isolation.

I picked up Anne Lamott's Bird by Bird today for a little inspiration. Her advice?
You sit down, I say. You try to sit down at approximately the same time every day. This is how you train your unconscious to kick in for you creatively. So you sit down at, say, nine every morning, or ten every night. You put a piece of paper in the typewriter, or you turn on your computer and bring up the right file, and then you stare at it for an hour or so ...
Somehow in the face of all this, you clear a space for the writing voice, hacking away at the others with machetes and you begin to compose sentences. You begin to string words together like beads to tell a story.
If you haven't read Bird by Bird, definitely pick it up! Lamott takes you from beginning to end (with humor and sarcasm included) in writing a novel.
So what resonated in me from this? It's the sitting down part. It's the carving out a schedule. I know to do it. It's how I got my 3 manuscripts written. I sat down every day while the toddler was napping and the girls were at school. I know that if I sit down, my ideas will come. But I think I actually need to schedule it in. During nap time. Because, invariably, if I tell myself that I'll "find time today" - that time will never come. Laundry needs to be done, the kids have homework, I need to hop on Twitter ...
It's the same thing I need to do with hitting the gym!
Do you schedule in your writing?

The Plan panel on Friday supported changing laws to allow varsities to hire foreign faculty and said it is aiming an increase in enrollment ratio in higher education to 30 per cent in the next 15 years.
"Indian universities must have an international flavour, international students, international staff. This would not happen unless the government removes the restriction on employment of international faculty.
"Unless this is changed it will be difficult to make it to the top grade," he said. Under the existing rules, Indian universities are not allowed to recruit foreign faculty.
The challenge before planners, policy makers and educationists, both in the public and the private sector, is of producing the world class Indian universities that could be counted among the top 200 rating list, he said.
"In the next 20 years we must see a significant number of educational institutions in that category," he said.
He said the 12th Plan Approach Paper has laid special emphasis in making primary education more widespread and higher education more research-based.
Ahluwalia added that expansion of higher education has to be balanced with equality of access, especially for those living in areas where educational institutes do not exist.
"For higher education, the 12th Plan objective is expansion, equality of access and excellence," Ahluwalia said.
"The objective is to raise the enrollment ratio in higher education from the current level of 15 per cent to 30 per cent over the next 15 years," Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia [ Images ] said while addressing the FICCI Higher Education Summit 2011.
Ahluwalia also came out in support of awarding government scholarships to meritorious students from private institutes.
"We also need to do a lot more on research funding. We could do with more philanthropy but that will take time to come. So government funding has to increase," he said.
According to estimates, the total public spending in education in India [ Images ] stood at $30 billion or 3.7 per cent of the Gross Domestic Product in the last financial year.
Meanwhile, private spending in education was estimated at $50 billion, which is expected to grow to $115 billion by 2018.
Speaking on the occasion, Secretary for Education in Scotland, Michael Russel said, "We are looking at education in life sciences, biofuel and liberal arts as major areas where lot of exchange can take place. There are 4,000 Indian students in Scotland, the second biggest group of overseas students, and we are keen to increase the numbers and also send students from our country to India."
The Scottish minister is here with a 35 member delegation for the FICCI conference. Lin Tsong-ming, Deputy Education Minister of Taiwan, said his country will be offering incentives, including scholarship to the tune of $1.5 million, for Indian students to come and study in universities in the East Asian country.
"Besides, we are willing to extend help in teaching of Chinese here, including providing study material and teachers," Lin said.
There are around 450 Indian students in Taiwan at present and the aim is to take the number to 2,000, he added.

Academic journal article The Catholic Historical Review
Christianity in Rural China: Conflict and Accommodation in Jiangxi Province, 1860-1900
Article excerpt
Christianity in Rural China: Conflict and Accommodation in Jiangxi Province, 1860-1900. By Alan Richard Sweeten. [Michigan Monographs in Chinese Studies, no. 91.) (Ann Arbor: Center for Chinese Studies, The University of Michigan Press. 2001. Pp. xii, 281. $ 50.00.)
The study of the history of Christianity in China in recent years has shifted from the vast national panorama (macrohistory) with the focus on the imperial court at Beijing to regional and local histories (microhistory) with the emphasis on ordinary people. This shift has been reinforced by the current interest in social history. Christianity in Rural China reflects both of these tendencies.
Ironically, we have imperialism to thank for this study of indigenous Chinese Christians. The Chinese government was forced to establish the Zongli Yamen (Office of Foreign Affairs) in 1861 as part of the treaty ending the Arrow War to ensure that there would be diplomatic channels for dealing with foreign concerns in China. Because Christianity was regarded as a foreign religion propagated by foreign missionaries, local legal cases involving Christianity were part of the Zongli Yamen's jurisdiction. Dr. Sweeten focuses on a collection of documents in the Zongli Yamen entitled Jiaowu Jiao'an tang (Archives on Christian Affairs and on Cases and Disputes Involving Missionaries and Christians). He deals with cases entirely from Jiangxi province. These involved transcribed oral depositions from litigants who were often illiterate and would otherwise have left no record in history. The value of the Zongli Yamen records for reconstructing the past is underscored by the fact that the Jiangxi county archives for this period, like so many other local archives in China, are no longer extant.
Sweeten's conclusions differ from some of the widely accepted interpretations that were first formulated by scholars like Kenneth Scott Latourette in his History of Christian Missions in China (1929) and in more recent scholarship by Paul A. Cohen. He argues that Catholics (his documents do not deal with Protestants) were not isolated or segregated from the rest of their communities. Furthermore, local conflict and litigation were due not merely to religious persecution (as French priests of that time maintained), but were more complex in origin. …

The science of computing extends far beyond hardware and software questions. Allegheny's computer science majors understand the theories and concepts behind the technology, and there's almost no limit to the ways in which this broad-based knowledge can be adapted.
Major and Minor Programs
The computer science major and minor programs are designed to provide a solid basis in the principles of the discipline combined with practical experience in software systems design, implementation and analysis.
The department currently offers two major programs and a number of minors. Each begins with a breadth-first introduction to computing, including programming and data structures, accompanied by topics from various programming languages, operating systems, and analysis of algorithms.
The introductory courses are followed by a set of "core courses" specifically tailored to capture the essence of the discipline as it relates to the emphasis of the particular major or minor program. Students then select from available advanced courses and applications courses to design a program meeting their specific needs.
The capstone of the major programs is a junior year research and project methods course followed by a senior thesis or project.
- Double and student-designed majors are available and encouraged
Major in Computer Science
At least 44 semester hours in computer science, including: three basic courses (Introduction to Computer Science I and II and Discrete Mathematics); four core courses (Computer Organization; Programming Languages: Theory of Computation; and Analysis of Algorithms); an advanced course in Computer Architecture, Compiler Design or Operating Systems; two additional advanced or applications courses; the Junior Seminar (Research Methods in Computer Science); and a Senior Project.

New York (CNN) -- The New York Jets football team is investigating allegations of harassment by team members towards television sports reporter Ines Sainz.
It is unclear what exactly happened when Sainz, from the Mexican network TV Azteca, entered the Jets locker room Saturday after practice but Sainz told CNN's Rick Sanchez on Monday that from the moment she entered, she felt all eyes on were her.
"I feel [a] little uncomfortable because evidently it is not easy to be in the locker room and hear and notice that everybody is speaking about you," Sainz said.
CNN was not able to contact anyone else in the locker room at the time but Sainz said that a female colleague took her aside and expressed concern and embarrassment for the situation she was in. But Sainz said she was just trying to focus on her job, and not the joking and talking going on behind her.
"But I really know that she heard something that I didn't hear, and the rest of the media that was inside heard things that I didn't hear," Sainz told CNN.
The Association of Women in Sports and Media spoke out Monday on Sainz' behalf, calling for a sharp rebuke "If Jets players, coaches and staff allegedly involved in the incident are found to have acted in unprofessional and harassing behavior toward Ms. Sainz, we expect and demand reprimand and punishment by the NFL and Jets," the association said in a statement.
The association will be holding meetings between its officials and the National Football League in the next week in an effort "to strengthen dialogue with leagues and teams to help elevate standards and maintain a harassment-free work place," according to a statement from the group.
The Jets released a statement on Sunday saying, "We will continue to work with the league to gather the facts and take any appropriate steps necessary to maintain a respectful environment for the media."
Sainz confirmed in her interview on CNN's "Rick's List" that Jets team owner Woody Johnson called her personally to stress that all Jets members are expected to act professionally and to extend courtesy to members of media regardless of gender.
Sainz told CNN that she accepted an apology from Johnson and that she also made a statement to the NFL about the incident.
Although Sainz at first seemed surprised by the attention she was garnering, she told CNN that she does not believe this type of behavior is acceptable.
"I think that its not good that these kinds of things happen and it mustn't happen anymore," Sainz told CNN. "Everyone knows that a woman or a man deserves the same treatment in the locker room."
Sainz is expected to report on the Jets' opening game at the Meadowlands on Monday night.
CNN's Megan Miller contributed to this report

An adult guide to sex and rub n' tug services in Australia's most livable city
Lana @ Southside X
I recently went to Southside X and booked 30min with a Thai girl called Lana.
She looks around 30 but most Asian girls look younger then what they actually are so I guess her real age would be mid 30′s. She is slim and petite but had reasonably sized tits.
She seemed like a sweet girl so I chose her even though her English is not very good.
We go inside the room and the first thing she asks me is if I want extras. I said yes and she said that for $50 she will do BBBJ & CIM.
She wanted the money up front so I pay her the $50 and she then starts BBBJ.
She did BBBJ for at most 2 minutes and then says that it's now time to fuck. I asked her to keep sucking me for longer but she said that she would suck me later on.
So we start doing sex with condom, doggy and her on top, the sex was OK but when I was about to cum I asked her to finish me off with BBBJ.
She took the condom off but instead of sucking me off she just jerked me off with her hand.
I felt a bit short changed paying $50 for a 2min BBBJ and then cumming by a hand job.
I just want to let other punters know to be wary of Lana's sweet smile and not accept her offer of performing extras.

Good Luck!
Kelly @ Southside X
After the battering on the markets in the last couple of weeks, decided to go for a cruise and ended up here. Saw their sign outside for a one night only special, and well, how could I not take a peek inside.
There was about six ladies available, and a queue of indian men in the bar waiting. But somehow, Kelly was available. Petite, pretty, average height, blonde, nice bum, smaller boobs, and a few small tatts.
Anyways, service was enjoyable, but it was the conversation we shared afterwards that was memorable.
Sorry I can't be too detailed – it was one of those nights were I can't remember all the details.
Interesting that you say it was a night where you can't remember the details but that the conversation you shared was memorable ???
I take it by that, the service was a bit ordinary and you won't be back to see Kelly unless there is another special on offer or you are in the mood for a bit more conversation.
Kelly @ Southside X
I remember the details. I didn't want to write a review about it, as I also stayed with her and it was one of those I would rather forget about bookings. First of all the intro, "no kissing or anal but I do everything else" (NOT). Since it wasn't much money to blow and she was one of only 2 girls available I picked her. She looked nice enough with her fishnets, bikini top and short blond hair.
In the room she called downstairs to say start the clock as soon as I turned the shower on. She then stripped off before I got out. Then it was "lie down for a massage" which is the first give-away it's going to be shit. I turned it round and gave her a massage (probably the highlight) after a few mins and when I asked her to roll over, it was straight on with the condom and a fairly lengthy BJ (teeth and all) as if she was trying to get me to cum early. Not likely with those teeth, biting every couple of seconds and her blocking any attempt at touching.
The worst part of her service was, every time I went to touch her breasts she would grab my hands and move them to her ass! WTF? Forget about checking the oil here. If you don't like your job LEAVE! :(
Three positions and I had enough and pumped her hard to get it over with… out of the place before time!
4/10 and that's being nice..
Abby @ Southside X
Visited Southside X about a month ago.
There were only 2 ladies available and Abby was the best of these
Long dark hair with a good figure with ample sized breasts.
I had only booked for 20 minutes as I was in a bit of a hurry.
Well thats wherev the problems started – firstly the lights in the room wouldn't turn on and there was problems with the timing (new receptionist).
Abby picked up that I was pretty nervous and did she ever make me feel comfortable.
Being new to this I hadn't asked what Abby offered in the intro but it was everything I wanted
To ease the tension Abby started by rolling over and kissing me – not just a peck but full on
The sex was fantastic with Abby taking control on top and continued to provide a full on passionate service.
Abby provided a great BJ which quickly turned into a 69er with fantastic response from her.
After a long stressful day I was unable to come. However Abby ensured I did, in the end she was playing with herself as I
came all over her. All this finished off with a long pash.
Abby made the whole experience exciting , looking into my eyes with passion.
After all the problems with lights etc Im sure I was in with Abby for about 40 minutes, rather than the 20 booked.
Will definatley be back when finances permit.
if i didnt give a a good service, it was becouse you were either drunk or i simply didnt like you!!!!! bythe way i love my job and im doing very well for myself thank you very much…………..
Dropped by Southside x the other day and booked the lovely Adriana for an hour. Blonde, mid 40′s, great figure. Once in the room, she made me aware of the extra's available. Oral, with dentures out, anal, golden showers to name a few. We started with sensual massage and kissing and then she gave me a sensational CBJ. She then moved to the cowgirl and rode my cock. We then swapped for some mish and then doggy. I then went DATY with a liberal smattering of tongue and fingers until I made the lovely lady cum, her legs shaking uncontrollably. After a brief recovery, she then said it was my turn and climbed aboard my cock. She ground her hips down and gyrated until I had the most amazing orgasm. She then lay on top, our bodies covered in sweat, kissing and cuddling until the lights went up signalling the end of our hour.
I will be back!
