2021 WorkshopsWe offer a range of workshops during February, April and July 2021. Registrations: firstname.lastname@example.com
MasterClass 2019-2020The Jacques Lecoq School offers a range of «Masterclass - Laboratory» to explore the styles and genres initiated by his pedagogy. Each meeting will have its own theme by led by a team of professor and invited artist, former student of the school. Registrations: firstname.lastname@example.com
"Jacques Lecoq, Un point fixe en mouvement", VidéoOn the occasion of the publication by Actes Sud of the book "Jacques Lecoq, un point fixe en mouvement", a video mixing archives and interviews is now available.
The School
On 5th December 1956, Jacques Lecoq founded the school in Paris. In 1976 the school definitively moved into The Central, previously a gymnasium, which became a well-known boxing center in the beginning of the 20th century. The working space, built in 1876, is located 57 rue du faubourg Saint-Denis in the 10th district of Paris. The aim of the school is to produce a young theatre of new work, generating performance languages which emphasise the physical playing of the actor. Creative work is constantly stimulated, largely through improvisation, which is also the first approach to playwriting. The school's sights are set on art theatre, but theatre education is broader than the theatre itself. It is not just a matter of training actors, but of educating theatre artists of all kinds : authors, diretors, scenographers as well as actors. One of the school's unique features is to provide as broad and as durable a foundation as possible, since we know that each student will go on to make his own journey.
The Pedagogy
The education offered by the school is spread over two years, during which students move along two parallel paths: on the one hand the study of improvisation and its rules and on the other movement technique and its analysis. These dual journeys are supplemented by auto-cours through which the students' own theatre work takes shape.
The teaching at the school brings meaning to an artistic path and has an impact on every field of knowledge. It is not just a method which is being handed down, but also proposes permanent references and values.
Every year, young actors from some thirty countries enroll at the school, which is a focus of exchange and cross-fertilisation, where the spontaneous blend of cultures contributes its own resonance to the teaching, extending the quest for a shared poetic wealth.
First Year
Teaching is based on the dynamics of movement, involving the body as the primary element of recognition of the living being, through the re-enactment of everything which moves, whether in life or on stage.
The universal laws of movement are applied to creative dramatic interpretation and to the art of acting, exploring different areas of drama recognised in the history of the theatre, reinterpreting them in the context of present ideas and values.
The first year is devoted to observation, of the world and of the movements in it. The process moves from silent psychological exercises to a point where the student builds a character, going through stages of identifying with nature, animals, colours, sounds and words; and discovering the art of acting with masks.
All classes are inter-related and follow the same gradual progress in the work. Together they form a coherent whole, based mainly on the analysis of movements and improvisation.
First year programme :
- Physical and vocal preparation
- Acrobatics, juggling, stage fighting
- Movement analysis
- Mime of action
- Play and re-play of daily life
- The neutral mask ( calm, silence, balance )
- Dynamic study of nature as an approach to acting characters through :
- elements and materials
- colours and lights
- plants and animals
- Creation of masks
- Expressive, larval, utilitarian masks
- Portable structures
- Creation of characters (situations, behaviours, passions)
- Dynamic approach to poetry, painting and music
- Theatre of objects
- Stylistic constraints (changing of space and time...)
Each week, working themes are given to the students in such a way as to stimulate their imagination and benefit collective creation. The results of these works are presented in front of the teaching staff and the other students at the end of the week.
Investigations :
At the end of the first year, the students carry out observations and researchs into various places and social "milieux" and present them in a public performance.
Second Year
The second year is devoted to creative work, exploring the main areas in drama: melodrama, human drama, tragedy, bouffons and the art of the clown.
"No reference can take the place of true creative work as expressed with original inventiveness at the School every day. Going beyond styles or genres, we seek to discover the driving forces involved in the acting and operating in each domain, so that they in turn provide creative inspiration. It must always remain the work of our own time."
Second year programme :
- Physical and vocal preparation
- Dramatic acrobatics
- Applied techniques to different dramatic styles
- Gestural languages
- Mimed comic strips,
- Story telling through word and image
- Melodrama and great emotions
- Human comedy (Commedia dell'arte and half masks)
- Crowds and Orators
- The study of tragic texts, the chorus and the hero
- Bouffons from society and mystery
- The world of the fantastic and the grotesque
- Circus and theatre clowns
- The Comics (burlesque, absurd, eccentric)
- Study of classic and modern texts
- Approach to writing for the stage
Each week a theme is given to the students in such a way as to stimulate their imagination and benefit collective creation. The results are presented at the end of the week to the staff of teachers and the other students.
A performance of the works of the students is presented at the end of each term.
The Commission
At the end of the second year the students are given a personal theme, starting point for a creation, this concludes the two years of study and affirms their personal style.
3rd pedagogic year
The third year, so called pedagogic year, is restricted to a limited number of students. They must have completed the two year professional course, have had some stage experience since the end of their studies in the school and have an interest in teaching drama. The year focuses on movement analysis, observation of improvisations and the evolution of students throughout the season.

Ten Second Review
Hyundai fills a conspicuous gap in its model range with this Kona, a little SUV aimed at the many supermini-based models now populating the smaller part of the quickly-growing Crossover segment. It's more extrovertly styled than you might expect a Hyundai to be and ticks all the right boxes in terms of efficiency, safety and media connectivity.
There are advantages to turning up late to any party. The 'event' in question in this case is the quickly growing market for small supermini-based SUVs, a segment that manufacturers like Nissan and Renault have been enjoying vast sales in for most of the last decade. Other volume brands were left on the back foot and it's taken them some time to catch up. That's changing now and the model we're going to look at here, Hyundai's Kona, is just one of a whole series of models seeking to make inroads in this potentially profitable segment. This contender was originally launched in the Autumn of 2017 in petrol form but more recently, hybrid variants and an all-electric version have been added to the range. It all creates a pretty complete small SUV. Let's find out why.
Driving Experience
Kona buyers get a choice between two petrol engines. The entry-level 1.0-litre T-GDI three-cylinder turbo is borrowed from the i30 and puts out 120PS and 175Nm of torque. It's manual only, using a six-speed box, and drives through its front wheels only. The other unit on offer is a 1.6-litre four-cylinder variant with 175PS, available only with a seven-speed dual-clutch auto box and the only derivative in the Kona line-up offered with 4WD. This top petrol model can make 62mph from rest in just 7.9 seconds on the way to 127mph flat out. For the 1.0 T-GDI, the figures are 12.0s and 112mph. There are 2WD-only petrol hybrid alternatives too, using a 1.6-litre petrol unit with a 105PS power output, electrified assistance and a 7-speed dual clutch auto transmission. There's also an all-electric version, available in either a base 39kWh/135PS form or an uprated 64kWh/204PS guise. Hyundai claims a driving range of up to 300 miles. Small Crossovers in this class need to be able to offer fun, agile handling, something Hyundai says is delivered in the Kona thanks in large part to an advanced multilink rear suspension system - though this is only fitted to higher-output models. Lesser-powered versions get the kind of cheaper torsion beam rear set-up that features on less advanced rivals. There's also an 'Advanced Traction Cornering Control' package to improve traction and damping in bends.
Design and Build
Aware that it was late launching a model into the smallest sector of the SUV segment, Hyundai felt the need to make a bold statement with the design of this car. Hence the aggressive body styling with its two-tone roof, unusual twin headlamps and distinctive 'Cascading' front grille. Short rear overhangs and a low roofline add to the purposeful silhouette, plus contrasting exterior accents and standard-fit roof bars inject a bit of all-important SUV flavour. Inside, there's a cabin you can colour co-ordinate in a choice of different shades and lots of the switchgear is borrowed from the company's i30 family hatch. Plusher models get a floating 8-inch screen at the top of the dash. Lesser models get a 7-inch set-up. Either way, the infotainment package is compatible with the 'Apple CarPlay' and 'Android Auto' systems. A head-up display is being offered for the first time in a Hyundai and audiophiles can opt for a thumping Krell stereo system. As for practicalities, well the Kona is a little longer than a rival Nissan Juke, something that really tells in terms of back seat space. Plus there's a 361-litre boot that you can extend in size to 1,143-litres when the 60:40 split-folding rear backrest is flattened.
Market and Model
Hyundai knows it has to price the Kona tightly to its main rivals in the Juke and Captur-dominated small Crossover segment, so it's no surprise to find this car's pricing starting from around £17,500. That base sum will get you the entry-level 'S'-spec 1.0-litre T-GDI petrol variant. Inevitably, you have to pay a fair bit more than that to get the kind of model you're likely to see dressed up in the brochure pictures - but then that's the case elsewhere too. 'SE', 'Play', 'Premium' and 'Premium SE' trim grades provide that. A top 'Premium GT' model comes with a pokier 1.6 T-GDI unit and costs around £25,500. The Kona Hybrid prices between £22,500 and just over £27,000 and is offered in 'SE', 'Premium' or 'Premium SE' forms. The Kona electric version starts from around £25,000 after deduction of the government grant. As for equipment levels across the range, well Hyundai isn't holding back. Plusher versions get dual-zone climate control to ensure a comfortable environment for all occupants during long journeys. Plus niceties like a panoramic sunroof and a heated steering wheel are optional, as is a Navigation system you operate via an 8-inch touchscreen on the dash. Safety has been a particular feature of the development of this car. A 'Lane Keeping Assist System' is standard, as is a 'Driver Attention Alert' system, and all variants can be fitted with Autonomous Emergency Braking, a system that scans the road ahead as you drive, the set-up looking for potential collision hazards. If one is detected, you'll be warned. If you don't respond - or aren't able to - the brakes will automatically be applied to decrease the severity of any resulting accident. Other key Kona safety features include 'Smart Cruise Control', a 'Blind Spot Detector, 'Rear-Cross Traffic Alert', a 'Speed Limit Information Function' and 'High Beam Assist'.
Cost of Ownership
The introduction of new engine technology has kept Hyundai right on the pace of the class best when it comes to efficiency and carbon dioxide emissions. The 1.0-litre T-GDI petrol unit puts out 121g/km of NEDC-rated CO2 and manages 45.6mpg (WLTP). And the 1.6-litre T-GDI variant delivers 158g/km and 34.0mpg. The Kona Hybrid puts out just 90g/km of CO2 (NEDC) and manages 56.5mpg (WLTP). Fuel saving technologies used with all powerplants include Integrated Stop & Go (ISG), low rolling-resistance tyres, an alternator management system (AMS) and a drag-reducing 'active air flap' in the front grille. All of this is aided by a slippery drag coefficient and in the top petrol variant, the 7DCT auto gearbox provides an improvement in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of up to 20% compared to a conventional six-gear automated transmission. On to servicing. Your Kona will need a garage visit once a year or every 10,000 miles, whichever comes sooner. If you want to budget ahead for routine maintenance, there are various 'Hyundai Sense' packages that offer fixed-price servicing over two, three or five-year periods. You can pay for your plan monthly and add MoTs into the three or five year plans for an extra fee. As for the all-electric version, well Hyundai says it has a driving range of 'up to 300 miles'. Charging from a 7kW wallbox will take 6hrs 10 mins for the base 39kWh version and 9 hours 35 minutes for the uprated 64 kWh derivative. From a public 50kW charge point, either car can be charged to 80% capacity in 75 minutes.

Alcohol and cancer
Many of us don't know that drinking alcohol increases the risk of developing cancers of the mouth, upper throat, voice-box, food-pipe, bowel, liver and breast (in women). Also, there is some evidence that alcohol increases the risk of stomach and pancreatic cancer.
If you combine smoking with drinking, your risk of cancer will increase significantly.
Our recommendations on alcohol are based on good quality evidence. We recommend that:
- you limit your alcohol intake or not drink alcohol if you want to reduce your risk of developing cancer.
- young people do not drink alcohol or delay drinking alcohol for as long as possible if they choose to drink.
- our Government and councils introduce policies that meaningfully reduce the amount of alcohol available and the amount of alcohol advertising.
Our resources:
Cancer and Alcohol Information Sheet
Cancer and Alcohol Risk Position Statement
Cancer and Alcohol Infographic
Frequently asked questions
1. How does alcohol cause cancer?
As yet we don't have a definitive answer but good quality evidence tells us that alcohol (ethanol) may cause cancer in the following ways:
- our body breaks ethanol down into smaller substances that are absorbed into our blood stream. One of these substances is called acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde can bond with our DNA (the genetic information in every cell) to increase the risk of cell mutations (damage to cells) and disrupts normal cell replication (how cells normally copy themselves) which may increase the risk of cancer.
- ethanol comes into contact with our tissue by irritating the moist tissue that lines our digestive tract (mucosa). This irritation makes it easier for substances linked to cancer (carcinogens) to cause damage to our cells
- ethanol acts as a solvent (a thinner) so our body is more at risk of absorbing other carcinogens
- ethanol increases our oestrogen levels. This may add to the increased risk of breast cancer in women drinkers. Studies have found oestrogens to have a carcinogenic effect on breast tissue.
- ethanol causes cirrhosis (scarring) of the liver, which increases the risk of liver cancer.
2. What is a safe level of drinking?
No level of alcohol intake is safe in terms of cancer risk. The cancers where alcohol has a strong link are, cancers of the mouth, throat (pharynx), voice box (larynx), food pipe (oesophagus), bowel (colorectal), breast (in women) and liver. There is some evidence that heavy drinking also increases the risk of stomach (gastric) cancer and pancreatic cancer.
Cancer risk increases with the amount of alcohol drunk.
3. What is a standard drink?
The standard drinks guide measures the amount of pure alcohol in a drink. One standard drink equals 10 grams of pure alcohol. This is about the same as one 330 ml can of beer at 4 percent alcohol or one 100 ml glass of wine at 12.5 percent alcohol or 30mls of spirit. Because alcoholic drinks have different amounts of alcohol in them (i.e. they are different strengths) the number of standard drinks they equal, will change.
Changing to drinks with lower-alcohol content (e.g. light beer, low alcohol wine) can reduce cancer risk by decreasing the total amount of alcohol drunk.
The Health Promotion Agency's (HPA) low risk drinking advice asks people to reduce their long term health risks by drinking no more than:
- two standard drinks a day for women and no more than 10 standard drinks per week.
- three standard drinks a day for men and no more than 15 standard drinks per week.
HPA also recommend having at least two alcohol free days every week.
The HPA alcohol drinking advice will help people make an informed choice and help keep the risk of alcohol-related injuries, diseases and death low. HPA state that low-risk is not no-risk, and that a range of things can affect risks from drinking alcohol.
For more information on standard drinks visit: http://www.alcohol.org.nz/alcohol-you/whats-standard-drink
Alcohol is high in energy (kilojoules or calories) and can easily cause weight gain. Being overweight or obese is also linked with a higher cancer risk.
One gram of alcohol has 27kJ compared with one gram of sugar with 17kJ. One standard drink e.g. 100ml of wine, 30 ml of spirits or 330ml of beer, has 290Kj/69 calories. How much you drink, and what you eat and or mix with your drinks (think mixers, such as lemonade, tonic or cola; or cocktails with cream) can add many more calories. Many people don't know how much a standard drink is and may be taking in more calories from their drinking than they realise.
Read more about alcohol facts and figures.
5. Does alcohol reduce the risk heart disease?
The Heart Foundation of New Zealand says that alcohol is not a safe or effective treatment to reduce cardiovascular risk (heart problems). The best way to improve heart health is not to smoke, be active, be a healthy weight and chose a healthy diet.
You can read more on the Heart Foundation website.
6. How does alcohol and smoking increase cancer risk?
What we know is that when you mix smoking and drinking together your risk of developing cancer of the mouth, voice box, throat and food pipe increases a lot. The risk of getting one of these cancers is thought to be more than 35 times greater for those who both smoke and drink compared with those who neither smoke nor drink.
7. How can I reduce the amount I drink?
If you drink there are plenty of ways to cut back, including:
- know what a standard drink is so you can keep track of how much you drink
- set daily and weekly limits for yourself and stick to them
- start with non-alcoholic drinks and then drink an alcoholic drink followed by a non-alcoholic drink
- drink slowly and wait until your glass (or others) is empty
- chose drinks with a lower alcohol content
- eat before or while you are drinking
For other ideas on cutting down on drinking see the HPA website.
or call the Alcohol Drug Helpline:0800 787 797 for free confidential information, insight and support with any problem, issue or query you have about your own or someone else's drinking.
8. How can I be a responsible host?
There are lots of things you can do to be a responsible host including:
- provide suitable food you'd see at an event like the one you're giving (for example, nibbles or a meal)
- offer water
- offer no-alcohol drinks
- offer low-alcohol drinks
- be a good host by waiting until your guest has finished their drink before offering them another (wait for glasses to be empty)
- do not serve alcohol to guests aged <18 years
- make sure guests are safe at the event
- help guests get home safely
For more ideas on being a good host see the HPA website.
9. What should I say to my teen about alcohol?
Talk to your kids about alcohol and why it makes good sense for them not to drink, or at least delay their drinking.
For more ideas on talking to teens see the HPA website.
To read more about alcohol and life stages (including teens and the elderly) read this HPA publication.

East 19th Street is very similar to other streets nearby. There isn't really much going on on this street besides living, as it is mainly residential. The housing options are very nice, and this street is very calm, quiet, and clean. Though much of the excitement is on the main streets, this street is a great one for families and established people. All in all, a great street.

The Ordeal
by Mangesh Jadhav
We know that USA is capable of quite a lot. Or so it projects in movies and books. But interfering with nature…who would've thought!
Mangesh Jadhav's first offering, a sci-fi one at that, (The Ordeal) is quite entertaining and thrilling. I wasn't sure how well my mind would receive it- but I was zapped at being hooked on to it from the very first page.
So what's the story like- you ask? Well we have NASA and NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) working on a satellite that can be used for military purposes. And then you have Russia with its undercover agents reporting the secret to its country, and them coming up with plans to counter it, and therein lies the fantastic plot. How it is brought forth and faced makes for a great read.
For a debut writer, Mangesh has used crisp, clean and very free flowing language that is not only easy but also grammatically fine. (Such relief there.)
The characters are very strong and impactful. Michael Jones, the lead protagonist is a CIA agent. His personality almost reflects through the pages. He is in charge of keeping the mission a secret, and what a fine job he does.
Then we have Suzanne Owen (Private Secretary of CIA's Director) –a beautiful young lady and Michael's love interest.
The other cast includes: Dr. Nina Portman, the greedy scientist who can't but keep a secret for the country and sells her soul to the devil (read: Russians); Dr. Stephen Wilson of NOAA, the one to begin the experiment in the first place, and a bunch of Russians (Alexander Kofman, Andrei Yavlinsky, Vladimir Ivanov, Sergi Nemstor, etc.) who complete the picture in a splendid way.
Another good thing about the novel is the ease of reading it brings- well spaced lettering and smooth language- makes reading sort of uninterrupted and the 400 odd pages did not seem a task, really. The narrative is quite linear. Which is a good thing I guess.
The thriller was thoroughly enjoyed. Crisp plot, remarkable twists, pretty good detailing (sometimes a bit too much of it), it felt more real than just a story. Certain places the author could've/ should've left open-ended sentences/plots for the reader to interpret or assume or imagine. This would've engaged the reader more.
But overall, this is a MUST read- esp. coming from an Indian author- a great debut here!

We arrived at the Signature at eleven o'clock. Check in was a breeze and we asked the agent what perks our credit card awarded us, she checked with her manager and then let us know we'd be upgraded to a one bedroom suite. We were issued keys to room 34-714 in the second tower, I signed paperwork and we were off to our home for the night.
We were blown away by the suite; the photos on their website don't do the rooms justice.
There was a full kitchen
It wouldn't be complete without a full-size dishwasher
Guest bath and shower
Dining area
Living room with sleeper sofa
Master bedroom
The desk houses the flat screen TV
Master bath
The balcony was huge! There were two sliding doors, one in the living room and another in the bedroom, but the balcony didn't end there, it continued on twice that distance.
Balcony views
This shot is a reflection off the glass
After we soaked in the balcony views, we laid in bed and watched football. Then we enjoyed my idea of the perfect white Christmas, a Jacuzzi tub overflowing with bubbles. We relaxed and lounged about until hunger struck. We walked over to MGM Grand, made reservations for an hour later, at Seablue. We made a couple sports bets and played a new Slingo slot and Sigma derby to pass the time until dinner.
At Seablue, we had chilled gulf prawns to start, along with a Caesar salad. Delicious, I could eat those all day and night. I was anticipating having halibut, but it wasn't offered on this visit. The waiter suggested striped bass, but I opted for Australian prawn skewers instead. Frank selected the lamb skewers. Our dishes were beautifully presented; I wished I had thought to snap a picture. They were equally as tasty. Shockingly, we each had room for dessert so Frank ordered Tiramisu
I had molten chocolate cake
Yum! Another fantastic meal at Seablue.
After we finished dinner we checked the score of the football game and saw that we won our first half bet, so we walked over to the sports book to cash the ticket. We also stopped in the gift shop and bought chocolate. Then we went back to the room and cracked open a bottle of Champagne. We toasted in bed and watched the rest of the football game. We won our other bet, too. We popped open another bottle of Champagne, ate some chocolates and lounged in bed. I dozed off and woke when the door bell rang; Frank had ordered room service, chicken fingers and a pastrami sandwich. I had a bite of each and went back to bed. Frank took a bath and later joined me.
We had a great night's rest, but we stayed in bed most of the morning. We made good use of the tub and then ordered room service. We each had banana nut French toast and Frank also ordered cinnamon rolls.
After breakfast, we went out on the balcony to bask in the rays. We watched flights come and go, I read the paper and Frank smoked a cigar. It was perfect way to start the Christmas holiday. Sadly, one o'clock rolled around and we reluctantly called the bell desk to come grab our bags so we could check out. It was tempting to stay until they physically removed us, but felt it was best to go willingly since we'd like to return. We ran over to sport book, cashed our ticket, then returned to the Signature and settled our bill. Valet pulled up our car and another fantastic stay had drawn to a close. The only bright side to leaving was that there was no flight to catch, just a short 10 minute drive home.

LMC Swansea Rehearses Emergency Response
Swansea, SC (WLTX) — During a health emergency one second can save a life. That is why Lexington Medical Center is making sure each one counts when it comes to caring for patient in rural areas of the Midlands.
Time counts when it comes to a heart attack and registered nurse and Community Medical Center Clinical Coordinator Darrell Tedder knows that first hand.
"I had a little burning chest pain. I thought it was reflux, took an antacid, didn't work," said Tedder.
That happened in 2008. He recognized the situation as serious and called his own ambulance.
"They took me to the hospital, where they opened me up, put a stint in, actually three, and I'm a survivor today," said Tedder.
Now he and other medical professionals at the Lexington Medical Center's Community Medical Center in Swansea are working to make sure those far away from the hospital's main campus, can get to that care more quickly.
"The quicker you get somebody to a quick assessment, identification of the problem and get them to an area where they can be treated the less muscle that dies or is actually damaged," he said.
The Swansea Community Medical Center held a drill to rehearse their response to a person having the most serious kind of heart attack called a STEMI, or ST segment elevation myocardial infarction. During a STEMI an artery is completely blocked off and part of the heart can begin to die. While the center can handle many kinds of medical emergencies, Dr. Donald Langston Powell says when they recognize a STEMI they begin procedures to get a patient to the main campus as soon as possible.
"When we call the helicopter or when we call the ambulance, there are personnel that are trained to take care of people. They're all certified in advance cardiac life support and have all the tools necessary to take care of that patient," said Powell.
While the community center is somewhat limited in what it can provide, Powell says receiving medications and care as they prepare to transport someone, is better than risking an attempt to reach the hospital on your own.

Each team in the WPL will take an active role in developing rugby in their community through outreach in schools, community organizations and facilitating a youth rugby initiative (i.e. flag league). USA Rugby will provide each team with a grant and materials to support the teams' work in their communities.
"Try on Rugby is about giving young girls the opportunity to play rugby while also engaging women to get involved in giving back," USA Rugby Youth Development Manager Erin Kennedy said. "We are very excited that the WPL teams are dedicated to the cause and taking an active role in this initiative."
One team that is very excited for the program is the San Diego Surfers.
"The Surfers are getting involved in Try on Rugby because we think it's a great way to interact with our community and really grow the game from a lot of different avenues," San Diego Surfers President Vivian Hansen said. "We're hoping to generate sustainable interest in the sport and impact young lives."

Getting , please wait.
|The indoctrination of Gerrit Wolfaardt (Jan Ellis) is complete: his family traditions, history, culture- even his church-have taught him that black South Africans are a cancer in the land. Under the eye of prominent members of the government and military, Gerrit develops a diabolical plan to rid South Africa of its "black danger." Before his plans can be carried out, he meets two people who will put him on a collision course with his future: Celeste (Liezel van der Merwe), an open-minded University student, and Peter Lekota (John Kani), a pastor who challenges Gerrit's prejudice. His "final solution" meets its greatest obstacle when Gerrit realizes he is wrong. The Persecutor becomes the Peacemaker and begins to seek reconciliation between whites and blacks. However, in the turbulent last days of apartheid, there are those who doubt his transformation. One such person is Moses Moremi (Mpho Lovinga), whom Gerrit had once violently attacked. In the end, it is Moses who must choose between peace and bloodshed.

PAC contributions from Project Relief member companies and trade associations
Project Relief
PAC contributions from Project Relief member companies and trade associations
Project Relief is an alliance of corporations, trade associations, think tanks and law firms formed in December 1994, to promote the regulatory reform components of the House Republican "Contract with America." With 350 industry members -- many of which are powerful Fortune 500 corporations -- and a half-million dollar communications budget, Project Relief works closely with Republican members of Congress to draft legislation and lobby members to support regulatory reform legislation. According to an in-depth study of Project Relief by The Washington Post (March 12, 1995), this coalition provided staff to draft key amendments of the regulatory moratorium bill that was passed by the House on February 24. As debate over the moratorium approached, Project Relief lobbyists organized a collaborative lobbying effort aimed at Democrats, whose support the industry groups needed to pass the bill. Project Relief also supplied staff to work with Rep. David McIntosh (R-IN) in the war room he set up to respond to challenges from the opposition as the bill went to the House floor. The regulatory moratorium passed the House with a final vote of 276 to 146. This moratorium, retroactive to November 20, 1994, would not only freeze future environmental and public health protections, but nullify essential safeguards already in place.
One reason Project Relief wields such influence in the halls of Congress is that it is backed by millions of industry dollars. In addition to drafting bills, directly lobbying members of Congress, and providing staff to help Republican lawmakers pass regulatory reform legislation, member companies and trade associations of Project Relief also contribute large sums of money to members of Congress through their Political Action Committees (PACs). One hundred and fifteen PACs associated with members of Project Relief contributed over $10.3 million to members of the House in one, two-year House cycle (1993-1994), and $8.9 million to members of the Senate in one, six-year Senate cycle (1989-1994).
Contributions to Influential Members of the House and Senate
Project Relief targets its contributions to members of Congress who are in positions to strongly influence the outcome of regulatory reform legislation. The 21 members of the House Regulatory Task Force received, on average, 24 percent more than fellow members from Project Relief PACs. Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX), who was instrumental in the creation of Project Relief, and who chairs the House Regulatory Task Force, received $38,423 from Project Relief PACs in 1994, or nearly 2.3 times the $16,790 average amount received by members of the House. Freshman Rep. David McIntosh (R-IN), who is chairman of the House regulatory affairs subcommittee, and ran Dan Quayle's Council on Competitiveness during the Bush Administration, received $37,056 from Project Relief PACs -- more than twice the average (Figure 1). House leadership was also targeted by Project Relief. The 11 members of the leadership received, on average, $36,052 from Project Relief PACs in 1994, or over twice the average amount received by a House member in the same year (Figure 2).

A similar pattern occurs in the Senate, where the 15 members of the Senate Regulatory Task Force received more than $2 million, or 23 percent of total Senate contributions from Project Relief PACs from January 1989 through November 1994 (Figure 3). Members of the Senate leadership received, on average, $116,186, or 30 percent more than the $89,263 average received by a Senator in one, six-year Senate cycle (Figure 4).

Project Relief's Contributions are Paying Off
A set of regulatory reform legislation, supported by industry and opposed by a coalition of health, safety, labor, environmental and other public interest groups, has been rapidly passed by the new House. The regulatory moratorium passed the House by a vote of 276 to 146. Regulatory elements of the "Contract With America," including compensatory "takings" and risk assessment, also passed the House by wide margins. Project Relief, backed by millions of industry dollars, has played an important role in lobbying members of Congress to vote for regulatory reform measures. Such measures are currently being debated in the Senate. The fate of the regulatory moratorium is still uncertain, but significant amendments to ensure continued public health protections, such as meat inspection and safe drinking water standards, were defeated in Senate committee.
Given Project Relief's record of campaign giving, this alliance, made up largely of industry groups, promises to play an influential role in upcoming debates and decisions about the future of critical public health and environmental safeguards.
Study Methods
The Environmental Working Group identified 115 Political Action Committees (PACs) associated with a list of nearly 200 corporations, corporate trade associations, think tanks and law firms that are members of Project Relief. Using Federal Election Commission records from January 1989 through November 1994, EWG analyzed Project Relief PAC contributions to members of the House and Senate.
For current House members, EWG analyzed contributions from January 1994 through November 1994 to members -- including freshmen -- in order to reflect their most recent election cycle. The analysis of the Senate was more complicated because of the six-year Senate cycle. In order to capture contributions to the Senate, it was necessary to look at a full six-year cycle, because members receive most of their money during election years. Limiting the Senate analysis to 1994, as EWG did for the House, would not accurately show the amounts received from Project Relief PACs by members that were not up for reelection in 1994, but received most of their money in the 1990 or 1992 election cycles. Senate contribution averages were determined by calculating the average amount received over a six-year period -- one full Senate cycle -- by incumbent Senators.
It should be noted that EWG's analysis underestimates the total that members of Project Relief have contributed to Congress. EWG did not research the individual members of the numerous trade associations that belong to Project Relief, such as the Chemical Manufacturers Association or the National Association of Manufacturers. If EWG were able to analyze the contributions of all companies that belong to these trade associations, the total contributions from corporate interests associated with Project Relief would be significantly higher. Project Relief, then, enjoys an even greater influence in Congress than is shown in this study.

CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Pine Manor College Women's Volleyball picked up its second win of the season on Sunday afternoon, taking a 3-2 home victory over visiting Me. – Presque Isle at Brunelli Court. The win helps the Gators improve to 2-17 on the season, while the Owls drop to 0-12 overall.
The game was a back and forth battle that Pine Manor was able to take control of late-- winning the final two sets thanks in part to freshman Susan Le (Lowell, MA) who recorded a game-high 17 kills in the victory. Junior Destiny Mann (Orlando, FL) also finished with eight kills for the Gators while also recording a match-high 12 service aces.
Presque Isle took early command of the game thanks to several Pine Manor errors, allowing them to take a comfortable 25-16 victory. However, the Gators bounced back in the second set as Mann took command for the service line and help Pine Manor cruise to a 25-12 set victory.
The third set was the closest of the afternoon, but again Presque Isle was able to race out to the early lead, once again taking advantage of several PMC errors while also get several kills this from sophomore Shannon Brown, who finished with a team high five. Freshman Abby Jewett and senior Randy Kaplan each also finished with four kills for Owls.
With the Owls up two games to one, Le helped the Gators take control of the match for good, putting down several emphatic kills on assists form classmate Alexis Bushika (Adams, MA) to help the lead the Gators to a 25-18 fourth set victory. Bushika finished with 22 assists for the Gators.
In the final set, Mann and Le combined to put away the Owls as the Gators took the 15-8 set victory and the 3-2 match victory.
The Owls will be back in action tomorrow when they take on in-state rival Saint Joseph's College of Maine. The Gators will close out their season next Saturday in Buzzards Bay, MA when they take on Westfield State and host Mass. Maritime in a tri-match beginning at 4:30 PM.

The first time you access your accounts through Internet Banking, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Internet Banking Agreement ("Agreement") and acknowledge its receipt and your understanding of its terms.
This Agreement explains the terms and conditions for accessing accounts and conducting transactions at Citizens State Bank ("Institution", "we", "us" and "our") via our on-line Internet Banking site(s), referred to as Online Banking (OLB). As used in this Agreement, the terms "you" and "your" refer to each person signing an Internet Banking Application.
Through Internet Banking, you can manage eligible accounts from your home or office on a personal computer. Internet Banking can be used to conduct any of the following "On-line Financial Services":
Institution may, from time to time, introduce new On-line Financial Services. By using those services when they become available, you agree to be bound by the terms contained in this Agreement, and its subsequent amendments.
You can usually access On-line Financial Services seven (7) days a week, twenty-four (24) hours a day. However, at certain times, some or all of Internet Banking or On-line Financial Services may not be available due to system maintenance or reasons beyond Institution's control. Institution does not warrant that Internet Banking or On-line Financial Services will be available at all times. When unavailable, you may use INFO-LINK our telephone banking system (903-322-3636), or an automated teller machine ("ATM"). An On-line Financial Service transaction initiated prior to 4:00 PM (Central Time) on a banking day may be posted your account the same day. All transfers completed after 4:00 PM (Central Time), or on a non-banking day, will be posted the following banking day. Since certain information and transactions are not processed by us until after the close of the Bank Business day, some transactions may not be reflected in the system until the next Bank Business day. Posted items may be reversed due to insufficient funds, stop payment orders, legal process, and other reasons.
Certain balances also may not be subject to immediate withdrawal. We assume no responsibility for any loss arising from incomplete information or for any temporary interruption in our information system. If you are unable to access our system for any reason, you can contact your branch of account for loan and deposit information.
We are strongly committed to protecting the security and confidentiality of our customer accounts information. We use several techniques to help secure our Internet Banking service, including the following:
Protect your personal information by ensuring your mobile device maintains a PIN, secure password, fingerprint, or the highest level of similar security setting your phone is capable of. Enable automatic screen lock for when your phone is not in use.
A personal computer with access to the World Wide Web is required to use On-line Financial Services. To ensure you have the best experience using On-line Financial Services and get the most current security features to protect your personal and account information online, we ask that you use a Web browser that supports strong encryption (128 bit data encryption) and contains a high level of security. Our site is optimized for use with certified/recommended browsers and operating systems. If you use a different browser or operating system, you may not be able to take full advantage of all the features of the site. Beta versions of browsers and operating systems are not recommended or supported. Additionally, if a browser or operating system is no longer supported by the vendor, it is not supported by Online Banking.
Your use of the Internet will be entirely at your own risk. We make no representation, warranty or endorsement with respect to:
You agree to comply with the terms of any software license(s) provided to you in connection with the Services. You may not transfer, distribute, copy, reverse compile, modify or alter such software. Unless otherwise agreed by us in writing, the computer programs, User Guides, security procedures, software and systems provided to you in connection with the Services represent our proprietary property and must be returned to us upon request.
In addition to compatible software, you must have an Internet Banking ID, a password and maintain one or more of the following eligible accounts at Citizens State Bank:
Any account that requires two or more signatures to make withdrawals, transfers or other transactions is not eligible for On-line Financial Services.
If you use Internet Banking in connection with a Savings Account or Preferred Investment (Money Market), please read the information below. You should also refer to your Account Agreement or call a customer service representative for further information. While you can access your Savings or Money Market account using Internet Banking, there are some differences between a Savings Account/Preferred Investment Account and a regular demand deposit account. Federal law limits transactions from a Savings account and Preferred Investment Account to six withdraws or pre-authorized transfers per statement cycle, six of which may be by personal check.
Your Password will give you access to Institution accounts via Internet Banking. Institution is entitled to act on any instructions it receives using your Password. For security purposes, it is recommended that you memorize your Password and do not write it down. We also recommend that you change your Password regularly to try and avoid misappropriation by a third party. Your Password can be changed at our Internet Banking site. You are responsible for keeping your Password and account data confidential. When you give someone your Password, you are authorizing that person to use Internet Banking and the On-line Financial Services. You are responsible for all transactions performed using your Password, even if you did not intend or authorize them. In addition, fraudulent transactions initiated using your Password will be charged against your account(s).
You may not appropriate any information or material that violates any copyright, trademark or other proprietary or intellectual property rights of any person or entity while using the Internet Banking or On-line Financial Services. You may not gain, or attempt to gain, access to any Internet Banking and/or On-line Financial Service server, network or data not specifically permitted to you by Institution or its suppliers, and you must not include any obscene, libelous, scandalous or defamatory content in any communications with Institution or its suppliers.
The Bill Payment service allows you to schedule bill payments through Internet Banking. Institution does not provide the service directly. Instead, Institution entered into an agreement with a bill payment provider to provide the bill payment services to directly to you. Subject to any regulatory or Institution-imposed limitations on usage, you can arrange, at your option, for the payment of your current, future and recurring bills from a checking account. There is no limit to the number of payments that may be authorized and you may pay any merchant or individual approved by the bill payment provider, however, the amount of any individual payment may not exceed $3,000.00. The overall amount of bills paid per day may not exceed $5,000.00 per user. While payments are initiated by you electronically, they are ultimately paid via an automated clearinghouse (ACH) network or by a paper check. Payments delivered over an ACH network are governed by the rules and performance standards of that network. By furnishing the names of your payees/merchants and their addresses, you authorize Institution and its bill payment provider to follow the payment instructions you provide for those payees/merchants. When payment instructions are received, funds will be remitted from the selected account, to the appropriate payee on your behalf on the day that you request ("Payment Date"). However, there is no obligation to make requested payments unless your account and/or overdraft protection plan has sufficient funds or credit availability to pay the bill as of the Payment Date. Funds for bill payments will be withdrawn from your account on the applicable Payment Date. A bill payment account ("Bill Payment Account"), separate from any account you hold at Institution, is established at the Bill Payment provider. When the Bill Payment provider receives notification of any return item, such as NSF or Account Closed, a block is placed on the Bill Payment Account for a minimum of five (5) business days. This prevents you from initiating any additional payments through the Bill Payment Account or from having any recurring or future dated payments made until the original return item has been paid. You may stop or change any scheduled payment, but you must do so by no later than 10:00 PM (Central Time) on the Payment Date. The bill payment provider is obligated to pay any late fees incurred by you because of late payments so long as you allow ten (10) business days for payments by check and at least four (4) business days for electronic payments.
Institution and its Bill Payment provider reserve the right, at their discretion, to implement security features to reduce risk of loss. These may include requiring pre-authorized drafts, verifying funds through an ATM network, and separating debits from credits so that payments are not sent until after good funds are received. Institution and its Bill Payment provider also reserve the right to terminate your use of Bill Payment services at any time.
If, for any reason, you should ever wish to cancel Internet Banking, we strongly suggest that you cancel all future bill payments at the same time. This will ensure that future payments and transfers made by you will not be duplicated. We will automatically delete any outstanding payment orders (all individual payments and all recurring payments) once we have been notified that your Bill Payment service has been terminated. We will continue to maintain your accounts until you notify us otherwise.
Neither Institution nor its suppliers will be liable for any transaction if:
On-line Financial Services are provided at no charge at this time. When changes are made, you will be notified at least 30 days in advance of changes by: 1) electronic mail; 2) physical mail at the address shown in our records; and/or 3) update of our web site.
When eligible, you may transfer money to other accounts within Institution, owned by other customers. To make an internal transfer, you must know the account number and corresponding name. After confirming the On-line internal transfer, the transfer can not be cancelled or revoked. Institution is not responsible for any transfers made in error, and can not reverse the transfer on your behalf.
You may stop payment on a check by providing us with timely, complete and accurate information on: the number of the account in question; the date of the item; the item number; the payee information; and the EXACT amount of the item (dollars and cents). If any information is incomplete or incorrect, we will not be responsible for failing to stop payment on the item. Requests become effective when we confirm their receipt and have verified that the item has not been paid. From time-to-time, the on-line system may be inoperable. If that occurs, your request can be communicated to us by telephone or in writing. Stop payment orders whether oral, written, or electronic, will be in effect for a period of six (6) months. If requested by the Bank, you will confirm any stop payment order in writing within 14 days of an oral or electronic stop payment order, or within 7 days of the Bank's request, whichever is later. After six (6) months, any stop payment will terminate and must be renewed in order to continue in effect. The Bank may pay any item that is presented following the lapse of any stop payment order. You will incur stop payment charges as disclosed in your account agreement with us. If your checkbook is lost or stolen, please contact the bank. ACH electronic payments must be stopped 3 days prior to presentment.
You should notify us immediately if you believe anyone has improperly obtained your Password or if you suspect any fraudulent activity in your account(s). You may telephone us at 903-322-4256 and/or write us at Citizens State Bank, P.O. Box 278, Buffalo, Texas 75831. If your Password has been compromised and you tell us within two (2) business days of discovering the loss or misappropriation, you can lose no more than $50. If you do not tell us within the two (2) business day period, you could lose as much as $500 if we could have stopped the use of your accounts had we received notice in a timely manner. You should contact us, or the bill payment provider, as applicable, as soon as you identify any errors or discrepancies in your statement or transaction record, or if you need any information about a transaction listed on the statement or transaction record. We must heard from you no later than sixty (60) days after we have sent the first statement on which the problem or error appeared (If you notify us verbally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing or electronically within ten (10) business days). If you fail to notify us within the sixty (60) day period, you may not recover any of the money you lost if we can establish that the loss could have been avoided had you notified us on time. We may extend these time periods for good reasons such as out-of-town travel or extended hospital stays.
When you report a problem or discrepancy, please: (i) tell us your name and account number; (ii) describe the error or the transaction you are unsure about, and explain why you believe it is in error or what additional information you need; (iii) tell us the dollar amount of any suspected error; and (iv) for a bill payment, tell us the number of the account used to pay the bill, the applicable payee name and account number, the date the payment was sent, the payment amount and the payment reference number. Generally speaking, we will tell you the results of our investigation within ten (10) business days, or twenty (20) business days in the case of international transactions, after we hear from you. However, we may take up to forty-five (45) days, or ninety (90) days in the case of international transactions, to investigate your complaint or question. In this case, we may provisionally credit your account so that you have use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If you fail to provide your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days of a request from us to do so, we reserve the right to not credit your account. If we confirm an error, we will correct your account record within ten (10) business days, or twenty (20) business days in the case of international transaction. If we determine that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation within three (3) business days after we conclude our investigation and will debit any interim amounts credited to your account. You may request copies of any documents that we use in our investigation.
Sending E-mail is a very good way to communicate with Institution regarding your accounts or the On-line Financial Services. However, your e-mail is actually sent via your own software and, as a result, is not secure. Because of this, you should not include confidential information, such as account numbers and balances in any e-mail to Institution. You cannot use e-mail to initiate On-line Financial Service transactions. All such transactions must be initiated using the appropriate functions within the Internet Banking site. Institution will not be liable for any errors, omissions, claims, or problems of any kind involving your e-mail.
Information submitted to Institution or its suppliers is the property of those parties, and they are free to use and disclose that information, or any ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained in that information to any third party for any purpose whatsoever, except as specifically agreed by Institution or prohibited by law.
Information that Institution publishes on the World Wide Web may contain links to other sites and third parties may establish links to Institution's site. Institution makes no representations about any other web site that you may access to, from or through this site. Unless expressly stated in writing, Institution does not endorse the products or services offered by any company or person linked to this site nor is Institution responsible for any software or the content of any information published on the site of any third party. You should take precautions when downloading files from sites to protect your computer software and data from viruses and other destructive programs.
Institution is not responsible for any electronic virus that you may encounter using the On-line Fund Services. We encourage you to routinely scan your computer and diskettes using reliable virus protection product to detect and remove viruses. If undetected and unrepaired, a virus can corrupt and destroy your programs, files and hardware.
In addition to the terms previously disclosed, Institution is not responsible for any losses, errors, injuries, expenses, claims, attorney's fees, interest or other damages, whether direct, indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential, (collectively, "Losses") caused by Internet Banking or the use of the On-line Financial Services or in any way arising out of the installation, use or maintenance of your personal computer hardware or software, including any software provided by Institution or one of its suppliers. In addition, Institution disclaims any responsibility for any electronic virus(es) Customer may encounter after installation of such software or use of Internet Banking or the On-line Financial Services. Without limiting the foregoing, neither Institution nor its suppliers shall be liable for any: (i) failure to perform or any Losses arising out of an event or condition beyond their reasonable control, including but not limited to communications breakdown or interruption, acts of God or labor disputes; or (ii) the loss, confidentiality or security of any data while in transit via the Internet, communication lines, postal system or ACH network.

New: Berkeley Couple Ties the Knot in San Francisco
Couples rushed into San Francisco City Hall to get married this evening after a court ruling repealing a 2008 ballot measure banning same-sex marriage was enacted. -more-

After 14 years the Albany Bulb is in the news again. The Albany City Council has voted to begin the process of transferring the Bulb over to California State Park system. It will be a long and complicated process involving the Park system and East Bay Regional Park administrations as well as numerous other interested parties. And it will involve the difficult and painful issue of providing for some 55 people who have long been camped there and will be made homeless. They set October as a time to begin evictions. At Monday's Council meeting they voted for a $30,000 contract with Berkeley Food and Housing Project for a Homeless Outreach and Engagement Program to connect with the campers. -more-
On July 2, after 26 years in Hayes Valley in San Francisco, Rossmann and Moore, LLP, will move to 2014 Shattuck Avenue, between Addison and University, in a two story historic building whose original occupant was the architect of the Berkeley Public Library, main and several branches.
According to one source, it's the only terra cotta facade downtown. It's the Heywood Building (1917), a City of Berkeley Landmark. At the beginning, it included offices for both its architect, James Plachek, and its owner, William H. Heywood.
Berkeley police are asking for the public's help in finding a wanted man who allegedly assaulted a female victim last weekend, police said. -more-
As a former Boalt Hall U.C. School of Law retiree, I received in today's mail a copy of the glossy 68 page "TRANSCRIPT," Boalt's handsome Journal. I was particularly interested in the article on Professor Sanford Kadish (Page 5) mentioning the dedication of his "Jurisprudence and Social Policy Library". Kadish joined Boalt's faculty in 1964 and served as dean from 1975 to 1982. He was instrumental in fortifying the School's Center for the Study of Law & Society. -more-
It was two hundred and thirty seven years ago that our great nation came to existence. Through these years not only have our nation seen hardship but it has been able to overcome it in a tremendous way. The United States of America has for many years been a leading part of this world and continues to be. This ability to lead can only be credited to the people of this great nation who have remained united and loyal to this country in the face of any hardship. America is a country which has given us many freedoms. This great nation has been the land of opportunity for all. It has always welcomed immigrants with open arms and has given everyone the means to achieve the American Dream. This great nation has been a thriving place for many, whether be it immigrants, refugees, or its citizens. Among many freedoms America has given us is the freedom of religion which enabled the persecuted to find a new. If we look into our history, America was first settled by the people who were victims of persecution in Europe and found in her a safe home to live and blossom in freedom. -more-
I am happy the Supreme Court recognized that same-sex couples must be treated equally under the law, yet, I'm alarmed by their decision on California's Prop 8, Hollingsworth v Perry. The Court could have refused to take this case, but they chose to take it, and then they ruled that the Prop 8 proponents had no standing. This wasn't an "easy way out" of the gay-marriage controversy, it was a specific decision to limit citizens' access to the courts. It follows the American Express v Italian Colors decision a week earlier, which also limits citizens' access to the courts by banning class-action suits against corporations. -more-
As the media focuses almost exclusively on Edward Snowden's possible whereabouts, more details have emerged on the Obama administration's unprecedented assault on whistleblowers. New investigations have shown the administration's crackdown extends far beyond Snowden and has unleashed its 'fast and furious' spy programs on the vast majority of government agencies and departments — with little or no connection to national security. A program called "Insider Threat" forces government employees to spy on their colleagues and report suspicious activity. They are also mandated to view an online video, "Treason 101" to enhance intimidation. This has created an extremely toxic work environment and opens the possibility of enormous abuse and spurious investigations. This is starkly reminiscent of totalitarian governments who wage war on dissent and command implicit obedience. -more-
Our local media has been dropping broad, confusing hints about something big, something imminent, coming to the greater Bay Area.
A front page article in the San Francisco Chronicle in March 2013, titled "Hard Choices for a growing S.F." begins, "San Francisco residents will be getting thousands of new neighbors in the next 30 years, and it's time to start figuring out where they will live and work. (??) The article goes on to say "Combined with the Association of Bay Area Governments' (ABAG) estimate that San Francisco's population will soar from the current 812,000 to at least 964,000 by 2025 it's clear great change is ahead for the city."
Tim Redmond, editor of the San Francisco Bay Guardian, lays out similar predictions in his article, "The Zero-Sum Future": "Streets may have to be torn up, and redirected . . . ABAG, according to its most recent projections, would like to see some 90,000 new housing units in S.F. That's got plenty of problems, particularly the likelihood of the displacement of existing residents." -more-

The Berkeley Public Library's "Children and Young Adult" computers have a No-Filtering Policy for the Internet. Consequently, all sorts of pornographic material can be accessed intentionally or accidentally by children. A friend, who is aware of my concern for youngsters, sent the following email – "I recently saw a TV show in which young people were being interviewed regarding their experience with online pornography. The more macho males led the discussion with a cynical attitude of "Oh yeah, it's out there--so what?" with very little thought to its meaning or consequences (these are teens, after all). Finally, a quieter lad, genuinely moved, spoke up saying, "When I was twelve, I saw an online pornographic image. I wish I could go back and unsee it."" -more-
It's fitting that I should be writing about my mother's life and death in a week when the Bay Area and the nation is celebrating the Supreme Court's extension of marriage rights to everyone regardless of sexual orientation. My mother, known for most of her 98 plus years as Bette Peters, was an indefatigable matchmaker. She herself had "married well" in the best tradition of the Jane Austen novels which she thoroughly enjoyed, and she recommended the same course for everyone around her.
When the culture shifted during her long life to openly acknowledge gay relationships, she took up promoting unions for gay family members and friends with the same enthusiasm which she'd always expressed for straight matches. She died on Thursday of last week, just a little too soon for her to urge gay couples she knew to finally tie the knot.
My daughter Eliza described her grandmother's last years well in an email to friends: "She remained sharp as a tack, independent and deeply involved in the lives of those around her up until the day she entered the hospital. " She still lived alone in her own house at the end, still queen of her domestic empire, still keeping her eagle eye on what everyone else was up to.
In many ways she was the exemplar of what was to become the modern woman. She was born in the first years of the 20th century, but lived more than a decade into the 21st, always with one foot in the past and another in the future. -more-
The Obama administration's decision to directly supply weapons to the Syrian opposition may end up torpedoing the possibility of a political settlement. It will almost certainly accelerate the chaos spreading from the almost three-year old civil war. It will also align the U.S. with one of the most undemocratic alliances on the planet, and one that looks increasingly unstable.
In short, we are headed into a perfect political storm.
While the rationale behind the White House's decision to send light arms and ammunition to the rebels is that it will level the playing field and force the Assad regime to the bargaining table, it much more likely to do exactly the opposite. The US is now a direct participant in the war to bring down the Damascus regime, thus shedding any possibility that, along with Russia, it could act as a neutral force to bring the parties together. -more-
The Supreme Court in United States v. Windsor ruled that Section 3 of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), the law barring the federal government from recognizing same-sex marriages legalized by the states, is unconstitutional. -more-
On April 17th there was a horrific explosion at the West Chemical and Fertilizer plant in West, Texas, that killed 15 people, injured more than 200, destroyed or damaged 150 homes, and caused at least $100 million in losses. Five days later, Texas Governor Rick Perry was in Illinois trying to lure business to Texas, praising his state's limited regulations. Is Texas America's future? -more-
Averting a Relapse
When someone is diagnosed as schizophrenic, symptoms such as delusions can sometimes reassert themselves, even if one has been doing well for a long time.
Going partway into a delusional system can cause a "fight or flight" reaction. Delusions can sometimes be frightening, and this fright can make the delusions more compelling. Once in a fight or flight adrenalized mode, one has momentum toward a possible relapse. -more-

You've got to give the producers of Pandora's Promise credit for gumption. It takes a lot of chutzpah to release a pro-nuclear polemic in the wake of the triple meltdown in Fukushima, Japan. The film also suffered the ignominy of opening the same week that the owners of California's troubled San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station announced the permanent shutdown of the facility's two crippled reactors. Even the film's title takes a bit of nerve; it was Pandora's Box, after all, that unleashed a host of once-contained evils into the world. -more-
