WASHINGTON The Supreme Court is sending back to state court a case about an Oklahoma anti-abortion law that bans off-label use of certain abortion-inducing drugs.
The justices on Thursday asked the Oklahoma Supreme Court to clarify some questions before the high court considers an appeal.
The state court threw out the law requiring doctors to follow strict guidelines authorized by the Food and Drug Administration and barring off-label uses of certain abortion-inducing drugs.
Such moves include changing a recommended dosage or prescribing it for different symptoms than the drug was initially approved for. Oklahoma judges had halted enforcement during the court challenge.
The justices asked if state law blocks the use of misoprostol, including in conjunction with mifepristone, and if it blocks the use of methotrexate in ectopic pregnancies.

China Daily
|Daily newspaper
|China Daily Group
|Zhu Ling (Editor-in-Chief since October 2004)
|June 1, 1981 (12111 issues)
|Political alignment
|15 Huixin Dongjie, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China
|Official website
China Daily (Chinese: 《中国日报》; pinyin: Zhōngguó Rìbào) is an English-language daily newspaper published in the People's Republic of China.
China Daily was established in June 1981 and has the widest print circulation of any English-language newspaper in the country (over 500,000 copies per issue, of which a third are abroad). The editorial office is in the Chaoyang District of Beijing, and the newspaper has branch offices in most major cities of China as well as several major foreign cities including New York City, Washington, D.C., London and Kathmandu.[1] The paper is published by satellite in the United States, Hong Kong, and Europe.[2][3]
Published Monday to Saturday,[4] it is regarded as the English-language "window into China" and is often used as a guide to official policies. It is believed to serve an increasing number of foreigners in China, as well as Chinese who wish to improve their English. The editorial policies differ in being slightly more liberal than most Chinese language newspapers. The stated goals of the newspaper are the objective presentation of "China and China's news to a unique group of readers and providing services and entertainment specially suited to those readers."[5] Of all Chinese newspapers, China Daily's reporting is stated to most resemble Western journalism, but it is considered more controlled than most international media.[6] On its first publication on June 1, 1981, most of its journalists were Chinese nationals, some of whom had degrees in Western institutions.[7] Most of the paper's editorial staff are Chinese, whose English reports are then reviewed by a small group of expatriate editors.
China Daily faced no international competition until the English-language Global Times started in 2009.[8] It specifically targets an international audience, and is given out for free in hotels. It is also intended to be read by foreign diplomats and tourists as it translates major Chinese media articles in its editorials. The paper also offers programme guides to Radio Beijing and television, daily exchange rates, local entertainment schedules and national and world news.[9]
For the most part, the paper portrays the official policy of the PRC.[10] The editor of the paper has told foreign editors that the paper's editorial policy was to back the Party line and criticize the authorities only if there was deviation from party policy. Despite this, a number of editorials intend to give serious critical comments on both domestic and international issues.[8]
Foreign editors at the paper have been told that like most other state-owned enterprises, China Daily will no longer receive subsidies and the publication group is expected to steadily improve profit margins. The paper has thus adopted a more commercial approach and its editorial content is being pitched increasingly towards a wider range of readers so as to attract more advertising revenue. Much of the publishing group's revenue comes from real estate investments.[11]
The online website of China Daily, located at
www.chinadaily.com.cn, was established in December 1995, becoming one of the first major Chinese newspapers to have an online presence. It has editions in three languages: Chinese, English, and French. The English language edition contains one of China's largest English language forums, which provides a medium of discussion for topics politics, economics, entertainment, and English lessons. However, the forum has limitations on posts critical of government policies and others deemed violations of posting guidelines.[12]
China Daily is organized into seven sections.[13]
- Prime: Top headlines
- China: Domestic stories
- Focus: Featured stories
- Life: Entertainment, cultural events and soft news
- View: Editorials and opinion
- Business: Business News
- Sports: Sports news from around the world

As a newspaper group, the China Daily Group also publishes 21st Century, Beijing Weekend, China Business Weekly, China Daily Hong Kong Edition, China Daily Asia Weekly, China Daily US Edition, China Daily European Edition and Zhejiang Weekly. The China Daily is a member of the Asia News Network.
Hong Kong edition[edit]
The China Daily Hong Kong Edition (traditional Chinese: 《中國日報香港版》; simplified Chinese: 《中国日报香港版》; pinyin: Zhōngguó Rìbào Xiānggǎng Bǎn), has been published since October 6, 1997 and aims to report the policies and directions of the Chinese government, politics, economy, and social and cultural issues of both the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong.[14] It is the only official English-language newspaper published by the Chinese government in Hong Kong and Macao.
Asia Weekly[edit]
China Daily Asia Weekly is a tabloid-sized pan-Asian edition of the China Daily. The 24 page newspaper launched on December 9, 2010 in Hong Kong. Zhou Li, editor-in-chief of China Daily Asia Weekly, told India's The Statesman: "Our long-term aspiration is to be a reference point on China and the rest of Asia for the region's readers."[15]

Chinese police yesterday used pepper spray, tear gas and water cannons to contain numerous protests against Japan in southern China, as protesters took to the streets in major cities to demand the prolonged dispute over the sovereignty of a group of islands.
Mass protests emerged on Saturday when protesters surrounded the Japanese embassy to throw stones, eggs and bottles and policing challenge. In the largest demonstration, police fired about 20 rounds yesterday tear gas and used water cannons to fend off thousands of protesters in Shenzhen, near Hong Kong. Protesters attacked a Japanese department store, took the shields of the police and stripped of their helmets.
There have been looting and attacks on vehicles and Japanese restaurants in at least five Chinese cities. Outbreaks were also reported in Japanese managed factories in Qingdao .
"Unfortunately, this is a problem that concerns the safety of Japanese citizens and companies affiliated with Japan," said Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda to an NHK program. "I would urge the Chinese government to ensure their safety," he said.
The territorial dispute escalated on Friday when Beijing sent six patrol vessels to a group of uninhabited islands in the East China Sea, raising tensions between the two countries.
China was responding to Japan's decision on Tuesday to purchase by private operations to the islands, which are called Senkaku by Japan and Diaoyu by the Chinese, despite warnings from Beijing angry.
China could have allowed the protests to put pressure on Japan, but also risks being under the wrath of their own citizens, facing a delicate succession of power planned for later in the year.

I cover technology with an emphasis on social and digital media.
Generally speaking, magisterial think pieces in highbrow magazines and
reality television don't go hand in hand. But journalist Kate Bolick's cover story in The Atlantic, "All The Single Ladies," is a special case. The story, which examines the societal forces that have made it harder for successful women to find suitable mates, has been the most-read article on theatlantic.com since it was published almost a month ago.
That and the enormous amount of online attention it's received — it got more than 30,000 "Likes" on Facebook — was enough to catch the attention of "Drop Dead Diva" creator Josh Berman. Berman and Sony Television have now optioned "All The Single Ladies" with the goal of turning it into a TV series.
Unlike "Diva," i It will be a scripted series, not a reality show, says Bolick, who will be credited as co-producer and creative consultant. That's about all she knows, actually. While Berman hasn't sketched out a specific idea for the show, she liked his point of view when they met, and that was enough. "I've only seen one episode of 'Drop Dead Diva,'" he adds, "but I really liked it for what it was."
Correction: Whoops! As a helpful commenter points out, "Drop Dead Diva" is a scripted show! I've never seen it. I thought Kate (who, by the way, is someone I'm friendly with socially) said it's a reality show, but looking at my notes, that's not actually what she said. Apologies for the mistake and my now-nonsensical lede.
Jeff, Drop Dead Diva IS a scripted drama.
I guess actually a "dramedy." Hahaha.
*pondering* Because it's that thing. That — Here I am, over-educated, privileged, and writing for The Atlantic about gender, and I have a vagina, and I'm announcing X, and it doesn't really matter what X is, as long as it's about gender, and sounds like I went to Yale, and is provocative, although please don't confuse that with coherent/true/etc. Same shit, different byline. Book deal, TV deal, stir, repeat.

Easy and delicious! Tasted just as good the next day reheated for lunch. The gnocchi soaked up the oil in the pan but I have a great non-stick pan and they didn't stick at all, just got lightly browned in a few spots. I also used fresh baby spinach instead of chard. I'm sure a box of frozen spinach defrosted with the water squeezed out would work just as well, and I always have that on hand. I had the pizza cheese blend, mozzarella and cheddar, so I used that as well. If you think the gnocchi aren't soft enough, just leave them in a few minutes longer once you return to the pan with the juice from the canned tomatoes, before adding the cheese. Going to send this recipe to a friend I have that is a vegetarian.
Skillet Gnocchi with Chard & White Beans
From EatingWell: January/February 2009
In this one-skillet supper, we toss dark leafy greens, diced tomatoes and white beans with gnocchi and top it all with gooey mozzarella. Serve with a mixed green salad with vinaigrette.
407 Reviews for Skillet Gnocchi with Chard & White Beans
This recipe is very, VERY good. We couldn't believe how flavorful it was. I did add a bit of italian seasoning but that's it. I love the suggestions to add artichoke hearts. I don't think there is a need to add any animal protein to this as it is quite satisfying all on it's own. Too much animal protein in American's diet anyway. This recipe is a good way to reduce consumption. Did I say that it was very, VERY good?
so good! added turkey sausage and it was very very filling!
First time having gnocchi. The dish was great and made enough for a family of 4. The taste was excellent without adding any salt.
This recipe is fabulous. I added a little extra cheese which improved it. My 3 year old even liked it!

Native daughter
Lacey Logsdon
Departments of History and Political Science
While attending a student debate in June 2006, Lacey Logsdon listened as political science major Adam Recvlohe, a Yuchi and Mvskoke who heads the indigenous student group 500 Nations, discussed the need for a course of study at the University of Florida centered on the history and culture of American Indians.
As a Student Government senator of Creek heritage, Logsdon decided it was time to take action.
She researched other universities with Native American minors, finding some even offered majors in the subject. She then met with faculty members in English, political science, anthropology, history, religion and music to garner support.
Her vision is now a reality.
In April 2007, the American Indian and Indigenous Studies minor got final approval from the University Curriculum Committee and officially became a part of UF's academic programs.
'It was a long road," Logsdon said,'but with a rewarding result."
Housed in the department of anthropology, the minor is a compilation of courses already offered at the university and is expected to serve as a focal point for indigenous students, providing them with a sense of identity and community on campus, while also educating the general student body about American Indian history and culture.
The new minor joins several other undergraduate courses of study in the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences dedicated to exploring the perspectives of groups often marginalized in American society, including African American Studies, Asian Studies, Jewish Studies, and Women's Studies and Gender Research.
'I hope the program will foster a new respect for Native American culture in UF students," Logsdon said.
Her partner on the project, Recvlohe, agrees.
'This is a great starting point for the university, particularly students, to appreciate a greater diversity of all racial groups on campus."
Her experience with the new minor led Logsdon to seek a student seat on the UF Curriculum Committee. She has also been elected as a Student Government Senator since 2005 and serves as vice president of external affairs for volunteers for International Student Affairs,, director of fundraising for Delta Gamma Sorority, executive at large of the Board of College Councils, and is a member of the Greek Judicial Board.
Logsdon is slated to graduate from UF in May 2008 and is applying to law school. She hopes to live in Washington, D.C., and pursue a career in international law.

I cover technology with an emphasis on social and digital media.
These are a few of the headlines on the homepage of The Onion, the satirical newspaper, right now:
"While I'm Glad I Won, I Personally Believe Abraham Lincoln Deserved To Die," by Daniel Day-Lewis
Funeral Held For Door Shot Four Times By Oscar Pistorious
Republicans Reach Out To Women With New 'No Punch Pretty Lady' Bill
Snowstorm In Chicago Delays Hundreds Of Morning Murders
As that old "Sesame Street" song goes, One of things is not like the others. One of these things just isn't the same.
As you've probably heard by now, what The Onion is apologizing for is a tweet sent during the Academy Awards about the nine-year-old star of "Beasts of the Southern Wild." "Everyone else is afraid to say it, but that Quvenzhané Wallis is kind of a [strongly misogynistic word generally reserved for grown women, at least in American usage], right?" read the message from The Onion's official Twitter account. After a hailstorm of complaints, the tweet was deleted. (You can see it here if you care to.)
"Miss Wallis, you are young and talented and deserve better," Onion CEO Steve Hannah wrote, vowing to "take immediate steps to discipline those responsible."
It's the first time anyone can remember that The Onion has apologized for a joke that offended, and not for want of opportunity. If The Onion has a rule that children are exempt from outré humor, it must not have been in place when it published "Fun Toy Banned Because Of Three Stupid Dead Kids," "God Answers Prayers Of Paralyzed Little Boy; 'No,' Says God," "Ex-Pedophiles Share Tips On How To Make Your Kids Less Attractive," or "Pope Vows To Get Church Pedophilia Down To Acceptable Levels."
Or, to cite a few that riff on real children, this one about Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, or this one about Suri Cruise, or this other one about Suri Cruise, or this one about JonBenet Ramsey.
The Onion has put its writers through a lot in the last couple years. It threatened to put their work behind a paywall. It moved its operations to Chicago, leaving behind those who couldn't or wouldn't relocate.
But telling comedy writers that they can now be "disciplined" for telling jokes that fall well within The Onion's established parameters, just because a lot of humorless people happened to be paying attention at the moment a particular joke hit — that's a new low.
Much has been written about how Twitter and other social media platforms lull or tempt users into shooting their mouths off in ways they quickly regret. It turns out it also has the power to induce some people into blurting out apologies they should have swallowed.
Note: Since several readers seemed to think that where The Onion crossed the line was in targeting a real, specific child with a rude joke, I added a paragraph citing several instances in which it has done so before.
I can tell you don't get my point of view. The joke didn't cross the line for you. Just know that many people, who do appreciate the Onion and who do understand the joke, see this differently… as something plain ugly and yes, deserving of an apology.
I don't think Jeff feels that a satirist ever has to apologize. They are somehow endowed with a non apologetic pass.
You're missing the point that it wasn't satirical. No wit about it. If you have to explain the joke…
They aren't outsourcing the gauge of what is acceptable. They have editorial standards (watch the NPR video and you will see how rigorous the process is). They have never apologized for any of the ARTICLES they've published because they go through a review process before they get published. Event those one liners they have for news in brief are vetted.
Twitter is a different medium, one that they obviously had not held to the same vetting process as they do the rest of the brand. On the fly jokes are not always funny, and are sometimes horribly offensive, so the apology was warranted. By subjecting their feed to the same standards as the rest of the organization, they can prevent having to apologize ever again.
I disagree with the majority of the opinions on this page. You people have got to be out of your minds. I don't care if The Onion is supposedly about satire and parody, or if I'm familiar with them. All of these articles cited are about children. Children–maybe not your child, but somebody's child.
Maybe the person who wrote it needs to have a child, a child that is under 16 years old and is considered to be talented and receives the opportunity to be recognized for the talent. And them maybe some asshole with a Twitter account needs to call them a slur. Maybe that asshole will know what it's like.
So why did they apologize? You can talk all day about the CEO vs. the staff. Nobody cares. An image is an image and they chose to 'inflate' this particular instance by deleting it and then apologizing for it, therefore The Onion, as an entity, doesn't approve and admits it was a tasteless, horrible miss. That includes the author. The CEO spoke for him or her. I think a lot of things are funny. But I also know when and why it shouldn't be shared with the public.
The readership recognized the Onion crossed the line, It's leader recognized it but Jeff says not so. Just a joke in bad taste like all of their other jokes. So tell me Jeff if every day of the year I behave like an imbecile and one particular day my behavior is particularly caustic and people fear I am causing undue harm..I'm not liable for it because my behavior was in somone's estimation about as bad as it usually is. And nobody should ever have to apologize for anything that is similiar to what they are usually about..Hmmm see where you argument gets you.
In reality though you are not going to get it because you just don't want to ..end of story.
Writers can rewrite the world. This world needs smart brains to get healed. I love writers.
The Onion releases new cunt list: Caylee Anthony, Molly Klass, JonBenet Ramsey and Elizabeth Smart. Congratulations!
Mmmmmm… not very funny.

To the 11th annual Girls on the Run of Central New York 5k race on June 2.
More than 1,000 people participated in the event at the Clark Sports Center in Cooperstown. About 600 of the participants were members of the GOTR program.
The race is the culmination of the 10-week program that starts in mid-March and ends in mid-June, but the noncompetitive race is open to all.
GOTR is a character-development program for girls in third through eighth grades, according to the organization's website.
There are 50 teams at 30 locations in area elementary and middle schools and community centers. The program meets twice a week and include life lessons such as bullying prevention, media awareness and community service.
This is an outstanding program where young girls can learn valuable social lessons and how to stay healthy.
We applaud everyone who braved the rain and took part in the event.
To organizers and participants in the annual Sherburne Pageant of Bands.
The three-day event that started June 1 was the 64th edition of the competition, which brings together some of the best middle and high school jazz, concert, ensemble and marching bands from the region.
Laurens High School again took the Albert Whitney Overall Achievement Award. It also received best in class for division D, and won a second-place ranking in the Drum Major Award. Laurens' band director, Dan Martin, won the Frank L. Miller Outstanding Director award again this year.
The highlight of the competition is the parade. In the past, there had more than 40 bands, but participation had dropped over the last few years, which many said was because of budget cuts in schools.
Even though the event is smaller than it once was, the pageant is still the premier showcase of area student instrumental talent, and we're glad to see it continue.

Wilfredo Laboy II, son of the city's disgraced former school superintendent, pleaded guilty to perjury this morning and was sentenced by a Superior Court judge to one year of supervised probation.
Laboy, 37, of Methuen, had been charged with lying twice to an Essex County grand jury about using Lawrence public school resources to print menus for his pizza shop, get rides to work "on a daily basis" and have repairs and odd jobs done at his home.
The perjury trial was scheduled to start this morning in Lawrence Superior Court, but Laboy pleaded guilty as the trial was just getting underway.
Laboy's father, Wilfredo Laboy Sr., was convicted on March 22, 2012, of felony fraud and embezzlement charges. The Lawrence superintendent for nearly 10 years, Laboy was convicted of abusing public school resources for personal gain, using school employees to run his personal errands and having pizza menus and other items for his son's business printed in the school department.
He was sentenced to 2 years in jail, with 90 days to be served. However, he served only 60 days at the Correctional Alternative Center in Lawrence, known as the Farm, after he was released 30 days early for good behavior.
The former Lawrence Schools superintendent was not present for his son's trial today.
The younger Laboy faced 2 1/2 to 20 years in jail for the perjury conviction. He also has 2 previous drunken driving convictions.
Instead, the judge decided to give him one year of supervised probation.

Tricia (Courtney Bell) has waited for nearly seven years to have her missing husband declared legally dead, and just as this ruling is about to be made, her sister Callie (Katie Parker) discovers that an ominous tunnel near Tricia's house might very well be a portal to a supernatural world that might be responsible for the husband's disappearance. Now the sisters must prepare, as they appear to be next in line.

Southwest Georgia Technical College (SWGTC) recently named Tawana Graham its 2013 EAGLE Delegate. The EAGLE award, which stands for Exceptional Adult Georgian in Literary Education, was created to celebrate adult learners in pursuit of excellence.
EAGLE winners are nominated by their instructors based on criteria such as student character, attitude, and community involvement. The student must also demonstrate exceptional perseverance, a positive attitude, superb classroom attendance and excellent leadership skills while earning their GED® diploma.
When Graham first came to SWGTC, she didn't even know she needed a GED®. She came to enroll in nursing courses, even started classes and made it through her first semester, when she was informed that her diploma was not valid. Graham, like many others, made the mistake of completing her high school diploma online, with a school that was not accredited, deeming her diploma invalid. That meant she would need a GED® to continue classes.
Mary Lou Vonier, Adult Education/GED instructor, nominated Graham for the EAGLE award. In her nomination she wrote, "Upon notification that her diploma was invalid, Tawana immediately enrolled in adult education and has been hard-working, responsible, focused, persistent and successful. She has been a role model for other students, and I frequently observe her encouraging and assisting other students. Tawana clearly sees the value of returning to school to get a GED and will represent the adult education program well."
Graham said that while trying to get her GED there were many times she felt like she couldn't do it. Or that she just wanted to give up. But in the end, it was the motivation of her teachers and her dream of becoming a nurse that kept her going.
Graham just took her last portion of her GED and is awaiting her results for the reading/writing portion. She has had successful scores on all other portions.
Each college, of the 25 colleges in the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG), has selected an EAGLE Delegate to represent their institution. These delegates will compete on a regional level, and those regional winners will go on to compete for the state level. At the EAGLE Leadership Institute, held in Atlanta from March 18-21, delegates will reconvene and the regional winners will compete for the title of EAGLE Delegate of the Year title. The Institute also offers professional development sessions centered on leadership, communication and life-management skills.
Southwest Georgia Technical College is a unit of the Technical College System of Georgia.

The Pitt-Johnstown wrestling team starts only one senior in Keith Ryan at 165 pounds, but that doesn't mean the class hasn't made a significant contribution to the Mountain Cats' standing in the regional and national rankings.
Ranked first in NCAA Division II Super Region I and fifth in the National Wrestling Coaches Association Top 25 poll, UPJ plans to honor it senior class Wednesday when the Mountain Cats (14-2) host rival Shippensburg at the Sports Center in their regular-season finale. The match is scheduled to start at 7 p.m.
"It's a big match," Pitt-Johnstown coach Pat Pecora said Monday afternoon. "Shippensburg is on a roll. ... They have a lot of wrestlers ranked. Shippensburg has always been a good match. It's close to us. They have Pennsylvania kids on the team and their 141-pounder (Cody Myers) transfered from here. It's a good rivalry."
And Ryan has been awfully good for Pitt-Johnstown, which has won 13 consecutive dual meets.
"Keith has been an integral part of this," Pecora said. "He's kept us in some big matches. The Mercyhurst match he had a big pin late in the third with the score tied. He's been great and he's strengthened our lineup. He's a head hunter and, in a dual meet, those six points from pins are huge. It's like winning two weight classes."
Ryan is one of two UPJ wrestlers ranked second in his respective weight class in Super Region I along with Dave Cawley at 141. Sophomore Travis McKillop is ranked first at 184.
Not bad for a fifth-year senior who is a first-year starter for the Mountain Cats.
"It goes to show you if you stick it out, good things can happen. Keith's been here five years and he's taken advantage of his chance," Pecora said. "He's surprised everyone in the region because I guarantee you a lot of people didn't know who he was before the season."
Other seniors on the UPJ roster are Jon Moore, Glenn Winslow and Kevin Ryan, Keith's brother.
"These are all guys that did it for the team. That says a lot about them," Pecora said. "With Keith, he epitomizes what this senior class has stood for. They've been journeymen, but they're journeymen on a good team and Keith represents that senior class. He actually represents our season because we weren't expected to be this good."

Is there an Echo in here?
'Earth to Echo' aims to become this generation's 'ET'
It's no secret that all found-footage genre movies are the same. Grab a couple of characters, give one of them a camera, and expose them to something supernatural that's content to lurk just off-screen until the last five minutes. Everything else will just fall into place.
But that formula isn't particularly family friendly, if only because that thing waiting a few feet to the left of the cast is usually plotting their violent doom.
That's what sets Earth to Echo apart from the pack. It, too, follows a group of characters armed with a camera and a tendency to encounter unknown life forms. But all those familiar parts have been rearranged just enough to make it suitable for a much younger audience. > Read more.

Summary | Excerpt | Reading Guide | Reviews | Beyond the book | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
From the bestselling author of The Sixteen Pleasures comes an unforgettable novel about a man's search for meaning, in the tradition of Louis Begley's About Schmidt and Evan Connell's Mr. Bridge.
Rudy Harrington has spent half his life in a rambling Chicago house, raising three daughters with his independent-minded wife. But his wife has died, his daughters have moved away, and Rudy is restless. In what he interprets as a moment of transcendent vision, he puts the family home up for sale and buys an avocado grove in Texas. While adapting to his new vocation, new home, and new friends, Rudy takes up a book--Philosophy Made Simple--and begins to struggle with Plato and Aristotle, Hume and Schopenhauer. His newly acquired wisdom is put to the test when he enlists the neighborhood elephant to preside over his daughter's Hindu wedding and falls in love with the groom's mother.
Hellenga brings back characters from his bestselling The Sixteen Pleasures and introduces many compelling new ones--including the elephant, who paints--in a novel that illuminates our deepest concerns: love and death, marriage and family, and the mysterious tug of beauty on the human heart.
Allegory of the Cave
Rudy took up philosophy late in life. He wanted some answers, an explanation, or at least a chance to ponder the great mysteries, before it was too late - love and death, the meaning and purpose of human existence, moments of vision, the voice of God, the manifest indifference of the material universe to injustice and suffering, the insanity of war, the mysterious tug of beauty on the human heart. What did he know about these things? Not a lot. But something. He'd never had a college education. He'd turned down a basketball scholarship at Michigan State University in order to go to work for Harry Becker up in Chicago. But he hadn't peddled avocados for thirty years on the South Water Street Market without learning a thing or two about life, and Helen, his wife, had practiced all her lectures on him when she'd started teaching art history at Edgar Lee Masters, dropping her slides one at a time into the projector on the dining room table, the front ...
It's a quietly funny story set in the late 1960s, and very well observed. If you read and enjoyed books such as The Poet of Tolstoy Park or The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency series, then Robert Hellenga's latest is a shoe-in for you.
(Reviewed by BookBrowse Review Team).
Full Review (469 words).
This is Hellenga's fourth novel following The Sixteen Pleasures (1994),
The Fall of a Sparrow (1998), and Blues Lessons (2002). Set
in the late 1960s, Philosophy Made Simple shares many of the same
characters as The Sixteen Pleasures, but it is certainly not necessary to
have read the earlier book to enjoy the latter. Having said that, if you're interested to know what came before, below is a brief summary of The Sixteen Pleasures.
About The Sixteen Pleasures
Margot (one of Rudy's daughters) gave up her place at Harvard to care for her ailing mother. Now, at 29, this librarian and book conservator answers the call for volunteers to help Florence save its art treasures from the rapidly flooding Arno River (1966). While ...
If you liked Philosophy Made Simple, try these:
Firmin is a rat born in a book (a shredded copy of Finneggans Wake), who finds the books he consumes also consume his soul. He becomes a vagabond and philosopher, struggling with mortality and meaning.
A stunning, kaleidoscopic evocation of a family in crisis, written with delicacy and masterful care - a rich and gorgeously layered tale of a family breaking apart and coming back together again.

Hope is Not a Strategy
by, 05-07-2012 at 01:24 PM (778 Views)
So, how's my opening day wish list doing? About as well as yours, I expect.
But, since I don't have yours, I'm going to review mine.
So here are the 'original' wishes/hopes/dreams/fantasies - with comments after one month of harsh reality.
1) Mauer plays well and stays healthy and is in serious contention for a batting title and even MVP consideration.
Well, Joe's been healthy, at least. Even with the foul tip to the knee, he's amassed more plate appearances than everyone else except Span and Carroll - not coincidentally, the two guys who hit ahead of him in the lineup almost every day. He's performed steadily, if unspectacularly - sort of a Mauer trademark. But, no one is going to be seriously touting him for MVP at this point, and while he's eligible for the batting title (thanks to the aforementioned health) he's not in danger of topping the league leaders. A serious streak or two will be necessary to get him into contention. Grade: eh.
2) Dan Barriero is publicly ridiculed and forced to apologize to Joe for constantly bitching about him and mocking his 'commitment'. Maybe a 'Dunk Dan' tank is added at Target Field. I'd pony up $5 for three balls.
I'm making my first trip to Target Field this Thursday. I'll look for the dunk tank - but I'm not holding my breath. Grade: I wish.
3) Morneau stays off the DL for the entire season and has no concussion symptom recurrence. (I said these are 'hopes' right?)
Well this one's shot - mostly. He's riding the DL horse right now (or is that an exercise bike). And the only (small) consolation is that it has nothing to do with concussion symptoms. But wrists are pretty valuable to hitters. If this doesn't heal right, he might be looking at extended time away and limited production when he returns. Not much difference, really. Grade: sigh.
4) Liam Hendriks sticks in the starting rotation and draws (legitimate) comparisons to a young Brad Radke.
So, giving up homers was not the Brad Radke comparison I had in mind. Apart from a couple of mediocre starts at the beginning of the season, Liam has been pretty Lame. And now back in AAA. I'd guess we'll see him again, but the bloom is off the rose. Grade: fail.
5) One of the 'new kids' (Plouffe, Parmelee, Dozier, Benson, etc.) plays above expectations and generates some energy around the next wave of call-ups.
So far, so futile. None of the young-uns who started the season with the big club have done anything to uphold even moderate expectations - at least, not yet. Benson just got demoted, so he's receding from the picture at the moment. Here comes Dozier. Let's see what happens. Grade: don't hold your breath.
6) Willingham makes me happy about as often as Cuddyer did - and makes me frustrated less by not chasing low and away breaking balls for strike three.
Score. Willingham has been as good or better than everyone expected at the plate. Better yet, his strikeouts mostly come from missing good pitches, not getting fooled on out of the zone hacks. We weren't expecting great defense and he hasn't disappointed us there, either. Grade: even a blind pig finds an acorn once in awhile (see earlier post).
7) The Tigers' defense is more offensive than their offense. I look forward to many costly errors by Cabrera in games against the Twins.
Both the Tigers' offense and defense are roughly middle of the pack. Cabrera has a few errors, but Fielder has actually been a little better than average. Delmon's defense and his mouth have both been offensive. Grade: push. One of these two facets will likely deviate from current trends. Or not.
8) Leyland's classic overuse of starting pitchers comes home to roost this year. (I'm not hoping for injuries, just diminished performance due to overuse.)
Scherzer and Porcello are underperforming expectations. Hard to say that's due to overuse at this point. More data is needed. Verlander appears strong. And Smyly is young enough that overuse isn't much of a consideration at this point in his career. Grade: waiting; not that it matters at this point.
9) The White Sox lose 100 games.
Still possible. They're only 5 losses behind the Twins. Grade: hope is still alive.
10) Twins are leading by one going into the 9th - and I'm not dreading to see who's warming up.
A lead? Going into the ninth inning? What's that? I'm not really dreading to see who's warming up, anyway. Mostly because I'm fairly certain the Twins will lose the next couple of games even if they hold onto this one. Grade: defensive indifference.
...and finally:
I hope I have to make time to watch meaningful games (involving the Twins) in September and October.
Grade: looks like I'll have plenty of time to rake leaves.

The Daily Item
LEWISBURG — Lions are the largest of all service clubs around the world. Shortly after Lions International was organized, Helen Keller challenged the Lions to become "Knights of the Blind" and to this day the blind is the unifying theme of the organization. That is also true with Lewisburg Lions.
The Lewisburg Lions have received tremendous support and more than half of those funds have been used in the local community. The by-laws of Lionism require that 100 percent of all donations from non-Lions be given to charitable causes. All costs of Lions club organization must be borne by members. Thus any Lion you see is contributing from his or her own time or pocket for the privilege of serving others — hence the motto "We Serve".
During the past year, Lewisburg Lions contributed nearly $1,100 to people in the area needing help with eye glasses. Last year, over 600 pair of used eyeglasses were placed in the Lions collection box at Evangical Hospital. Many of those sunglasses were given to people in Guatamaula, and the remainder were presented to a regional Lions Eyeblank center and reconditioned and used throughout the world.
Additional dollars were contributed to: Boy Scout Troop 509, $100; the Lewisburg Shade Tree Commission, $450, plus the labor for planting; and Northeast Pa. Lions EyeBank, $100.
The NE Eyebank works with over 60 hospitals covering a 37 county area and is considered the fifth largest EyeBank by volume in the United States. When local people sign up to provide a cornea donation, this is where the information is recorded. Many people in the northeastern region of Pennsylvania receive donated corneas and the financial contributions from Lions throughout the region support that effort. Contact the Lewisburg Lions for an application to make a cornea donation.
Other donations were made to the Donald Heiter Community Center, $100; Leader Dog for the Blind, $200.
Leader Dogs for the Blind has over 1,500 people using Leader Dog for the Blind trained dogs. If you or a member of your family ever need a Leader Dog, they can receive a Leader Dog for free, because of Lions support from across the country.
Other donations went to Beacon Lodge for the Blind, $200, and Camp Victory near Millville, $200. An additional $1,700 was presented to the Lewisburg Community Fourth of July Parade.
For any man or women who would like to join this "We Serve" group and would like to have a membership application, call Lion President Matt Hepner at 524-0961.

As it was in 1980, so it is likely to be today.
People for decades have been moving away from the Mississippi River and to the bluff-top and rural communities.
Almost 16,000 residents moved from East St. Louis in the decade before the 1980 census, though the city was still the biggest in St. Clair County with 55,200 residents. In 1990, East St. Louis was still losing people, allowing Belleville to become the county's most populous city even though it saw modest growth.
Thirty years later, East St. Louis's population is not even half what it was in 1970. The 2009 estimate was 28,753 and some believe it could drop below 25,000 when the 2010 census results are released today.
East St. Louisans, black and white, were fleeing poverty, crime and a housing shortage.
"I never would have left East St. Louis if they had housing," said relatively new O'Fallon resident John Daniels in 1991 for a story about how integration had helped cities above the bluffs grow.
St. Clair County's population is expected to rise for the first time in decades. In 1980, the county had lost about 20,000 residents from the previous decade despite an increase in total households.
St. Clair County Administrator Dan Maher in 1990 predicted a rise in the county's population by 2000 -- as long as more bridge capacity was built and economic development continued.
"I think we can lure people from St. Louis," Maher said in 1991.
But the population did not grow by 2000: St. Clair County's population of 256,052 dipped under Madison County's population of 258,941 for the first time. Estimates show 2010 census numbers should show St. Clair County is growing.
Madison County grew steadily in the 1980s before taking off in the 1990s. Edwardsville, Maryville and Collinsville may have been "discovered" as bedroom communities by people who worked in north St. Louis County, former Madison County administrator Jim Monday said after the 1990 census.
Madison County population has increased by almost 20,000 during the past two decades to 268,457, according to a 2009 estimate.
"The population increase in Madison County is directly attributable to black migration," John Farley, a sociology professor at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville who specializes in the region's integration, said in 1991.
In 1970, Madison County's black residents accounted for less than 1 percent of the population. In a 2009 estimate they accounted for 8.4 percent of the county's population.
Migration to rural areas has continued, with Monroe County growing during the past three decades. Its population increased from 20,117 in 1980 to an estimated 33,236 in 2009.
"People are moving out into the rural areas," Monroe County Board Chairman Clarence Trankle said after the 1980 census. "I think all the urban areas are decreasing. I think it's a trend across the nation."
New home construction was a big reason cited for the population shift to communities above the river bluffs and in rural areas. Farm land was developed into subdivisions.
Stan Sieron, then president of the Belleville Area Association of Realtors, said in 2001 that new home construction drew people to Shiloh, O'Fallon and Fairview Heights.
"People are attracted to that," he said.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have an energetic head coach to go along with their new, brash general manager.
The Jaguars hired Seattle defensive coordinator Gus Bradley as the franchise's fifth head coach Thursday morning, the latest move in the team's rebuilding project.
The 46-year-old Bradley joins general manager Dave Caldwell, who led the coaching search after being hired last week.
Bradley will be introduced to Jacksonville at a news conference 11 a.m. Friday at EverBank Field.
"It was just a matter of time before Gus Bradley became a head coach in the NFL, and the Jacksonville Jaguars are extremely fortunate that Gus will be on our sidelines for many years to come," Caldwell said in a team statement released at 10:45 a.m. Thursday. "Gus more than met every criteria we insisted on from our new head coach, and his intangibles and leadership abilities are exceptional. Gus is who the Jaguars need now and in the future."
Caldwell's players feel the same way. Offensive lineman Eugene Monroe has had four head coaches in the past three seasons, and despite the dramatic turnover, he is excited about another change.
"There is a lot of change going on since I've been here," Monroe said. "We had a new coach last year and that was exciting, so as a player you just continue to play."
Cecil Shorts III wishes he was still playing right now. He said that sitting at home watching other teams in the playoffs has gotten him more motivated, especially with a new head coach calling the shots next year.
"I know the other guys feel the same way," Shorts said. "We are going to go out there and compete each week and get into the playoffs and then from there to the Super Bowl."
Bradley was hired 10 days after Mike Mularkey was fired by Caldwell after ending his first season in Jacksonville 2-14 -- the worst record in franchise history.
Bradley spent the last four seasons in Seattle, earning a reputation as a fiery assistant who demanded -- and often got -- the most from his players. His defense improved each of the last three years and finished in the top 10 in points and yards the last two. This season, the Seahawks ranked first in points allowed (15.3), fourth in yards (306.2) and tied for fourth in takeaways (31).
The Jaguars were 30th in the league in total defense in 2012.
"I am very proud to accept the offer to be the next head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars," Bradley said in a statement. "(Owner) Shad Khan and Dave Caldwell expect to win, and that's what I wanted to hear. That's why I am coming to Jacksonville -- to win a Super Bowl. I can't wait to meet everyone in Jacksonville on Friday and get this going."
Bradley history
Before becoming the Seahawks defensive coordinator in 2009, Bradley was the linebackers coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2007 to 2008. He has 23 years of coaching experience, including seven seasons in the NFL.
Bradley played college football at North Dakota State University, where he was a free safety and a punter.
The news that Bradley was coming to Jacksonville was somewhat a surprise in NFL circles, as it was widely reported a day earlier that Bradley would be hired to coach the Philadelphia Eagles.
"Bradley was one of the commodities that just about everybody in the league was looking at as one of the next head coaches," Channel 4 sports director Sam Kouvaris said.
"He's got a brilliant football mind," Seahawks coach Peter Carroll said this week. "He's got a way of reaching people and touching people and getting the best out of them, coaches and players alike. He's got everything that you're looking for."
Hiring for the future
The Jaguars interviewed defensive coordinator Mel Tucker, St. Louis Rams offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer and Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden before striking a deal with Bradley.

Black sergeant was 'loyal Klansman'
About 25 years ago, Ron Stallworth was asked to lead the Ku Klux Klan chapter in Colorado Springs.
Problem was, the outgoing Klan leader didn't know that Stallworth is black.
"He asked me to take over the lead because I was a good, loyal Klansman," said Stallworth, who had been in constant phone contact with the Klan leader while leading a yearlong Colorado Springs police investigation into the Klan.
Stallworth later moved to Utah, where he recently retired after nearly 20 years as an investigator for the Utah Department of Public Safety. He says he's amazed that no one ever caught on to the investigation he led starting in 1979. After he was offered Klan leadership, he quietly disappeared.
As a memento Stallworth still carries his Klan membership card signed by David Duke.
"It was one of the most fun" investigations, he said. "Everybody said it couldn't be done."
Stallworth communicated with Klan leaders using the telephone. A white officer posing as Stallworth went to the meetings.
"The challenge for me was to maintain the conversation flow," Stallworth said. At the same time, Stallworth also led an undercover investigation into the Progressive Labor Party, a communist group that protested at Klan rallies.
Stallworth, of Layton, worked 30 years in law enforcement in four states. Stallworth's undercover experience and research led him to become a nationally known expert on gang culture.
He calls the Klan investigation "one of the most significant investigations I was ever involved in because of the scope and the magnitude of how it unfolded."
The investigation revealed that Klan members were in the military, including two at NORAD who controlled the triggers for nuclear weapons.
"I was told they were being reassigned to somewhere like the North Pole or Greenland," Stallworth said.
The Klan investigation isn't the only time Stallworth has been mistaken for a white guy.
He's been contacted by academics about his "scholarly research" on gangs. One such academic "said he was so impressed that a white Mormon in Utah could write such an impressive work on black gang culture."
Stallworth said he laughed and explained that not only is he not white or Mormon, he started his college career in 1971 and remains about 2 1/2 years shy of his bachelor's degree.
Stallworth started to work on gang activity for the Utah Department of Public Safety in the late 1980s. He wrote a report that led to the formation of Utah's first gang task force the Gang Narcotics Intelligence Unit that involved the Utah Division of Investigation and the Salt Lake City Police Department.
"Based on what was going on at the time, I knew about the L.A. gang problem," he said. Utah gang suspects were "telling us they were Crips from California."
Stallworth said of his work in Utah, it's his investigation of gangs that he's most proud of.
"It's had a lasting impact, first and foremost, on law enforcement," he said.
Wes McBride, president of the California Gang Investigators Association and retired from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, said about 15 years ago he "heard about this guy in Salt Lake who was becoming an expert" in gangsta rap music. So, he invited Stallworth to speak on the topic. It was the first of a series of lectures Stallworth gave on street-gang culture.
"I don't know that any of us ever listened to it," McBride said. "Where he was instrumental with us was pointing out to listen to the words, to listen to what these gangsters were saying."
The two both testified in a 1993 homicide in which a Texas state trooper was killed by a 19-year-old gang member, McBride said. Stallworth was the expert witness on the connection between gangsta rap and gang culture in the case, McBride recalled.
Leticia Medina, executive director of Utah Issues, said she started working with Stallworth on gangs in the late 1980s, when the first Metro Gang Unit was under development. She was a youth corrections provider at the time.
"He was very interested in what my perspectives were," she said. "I learned from him as much as I hope he learned from me.
"Law enforcement is not something that I grew up trusting. I had an opportunity to deal with a cop and see his world," she said.
At the time, Medina said, law enforcement wasn't involved in the community.
"They started the Metro Gang Unit, and everyone knew who the gang unit was," she said. "One key that Ron worked on was getting to know the community and community leaders. . . . Law enforcement needed to be trained in cultural competence and gang culture."
Stallworth has self-published four books on gang culture and has testified before Congress on gangs and violence. He also served as the state's first gang-intelligence coordinator.
In 1994, he was selected by the U.S. Justice Department's National Drug Intelligence Center to participate in a national street-gang symposium, the results of which were presented to the U.S. attorney general.
Now that he's retired, Stallworth plans to remain active, politically and otherwise.
Stallworth is chairman of the Black Advisory Council and serves on Layton's Parks and Recreation Commission and Planning Commission.
He also was one of several applicants for a vacant City Council seat in Layton. Stallworth didn't get the seat but says he plans to run for City Council.
He coaches a youth track team for 9-to-14-year-old boys and girls, and would like to volunteer for the Huntsman Cancer Center, which cared for his wife, Micki, before her death.
Stallworth is also going back to school. He wants to complete a bachelor's degree in criminal justice administration at Columbia College.
Medina said she wouldn't be surprised if Stallworth continues to speak up on issues close to him.
"Now that he's retired, watch out," Medina said. "He is very committed to all these communities. He is also very committed to the career he chose as a law-enforcement officer. . . . People need to take the time to really listen to him."

Answers to 5 Burning 401(k) Questions
The low-down on Roth, picking funds, and how much to contribute.
I can vouch for this: Personal finance writers field plenty of cocktail-chatter questions about managing and investing money. That's certainly true for Mark Bruno, a 30-year-old reporter who writes about retirement and investing for Financial Week. Inspired by questions from friends, family, and peers about getting started with their retirement savings, Bruno wrote Save Now or Die Trying: Achieving Long-Term Wealth in Your 20s and 30s, which he says offers pointers on "saving the right way." Here, he shares a handful of those tips:
How do you know if you're on the right track with your 401(k)?
Everyone has different incomes, debts, and lifestyles. It's too difficult to say that a certain level of savings means you're on track—because while it might be true for some, it may be totally meaningless to others. Plus, if you're 30 to 40 years away from retiring, you should just be concentrating on how you're going to start saving, and not what it will take for you to stop. It's important to consider, too, what you'll be giving up if you don't start saving in your 20s and 30s. Consider this example, which is included in the beginning of my book: Say you're 40 years old, you make $50,000 a year and you have no money saved for retirement right now. You want to retire at 65 and you can't live on less than $40,000 a year. If you put away 10 percent of your salary now until you turn 65, and you get pretty good returns on your investments (let's assume 9 percent), your retirement savings will run out at the age of 73 if you withdraw $40,000 each year after you have retired.
Now look at the same scenario for a 30-year-old today. Same salary, same contribution to retirement, and same returns on investments. If the 30-year-old also retires at 65 and withdraws $40,000 a year for retirement, his savings will last him until he turns 84.
He put away 10 percent of his annual salary for 10 more years than his 40-year-old counterpart, and the 30-year-old can now fully support himself for 11 more years of his life.
Numbers don't lie—you're young now, and your ability to turn small amounts of money into considerable amounts of wealth will never be greater.
Roth 401(k) or traditional 401(k): Should you split your contributions 50-50?
If a company matches your contributions to a Roth 401(k), their match is going into a traditional 401(k), while your direct contributions go into the Roth option. So you're already getting the 50-50 if that's your setup. Don't make things too complicated. For one, there's a pretty good chance that the Roth 401(k) isn't even an option at your company—only about 10 to 15 percent of employers currently provide their workers with this 401(k) option. But even if it's available, consider your current income level. The Roth 401(k) is a bet on your tax situation. If you think you'll be in a higher tax bracket when you retire than you are right now, then the Roth 401(k) makes sense. So if you're young and not making a lot of money, it's worth asking if the Roth 401(k) is an option. What tips would you offer investors perusing their 401(k) fund offerings?
Again, my advice is to always keep it simple. If you are young and just starting out, don't get too caught up in index versus active management, or mutual funds versus ETFs. Consider two things: cost and diversification. You'll almost always be better off choosing the fund with the lowest fees over the fund with the best past performance. The fees will follow you for years and will eat away at your earnings—just consider fees a negative return on investment. When you're starting, think passive funds that are inexpensive and get you broader, more diversified market returns. Percentage-wise, how much should you be contributing to your 401(k)?
There are all these rules of thumb that say you should be saving 10 to 15 percent of your income for retirement. Again, keep it simple: Contribute enough to get the full company match, whatever it may be. Typically, most companies will offer some kind of match, and it's often up to 6 percent of your pay. Try to get as much of this free money as possible, if you're capable. If your company doesn't match, first, send them an E-mail and tell them that they should. If they don't, consider your income level and cash-flow situation. If you have the means, you may want to put up to 10 percent of your pay into your 401(k). If you're tight on cash, shoot for 3 percent and try to increase your contributions as you pay off any debts, or when you hopefully get your next raise. Remember, these contributions are made using pretax dollars, so your contributions will lower your annual taxable income, too. What about investing for other things, such as a house?
Most young people—myself included—have a lot of work to do just to establish the foundation of a portfolio. It's tough when you have a lot to do but not a lot of money to do it with. The 401(k) is a great starting point, because you're getting some help from your employer, plus you're also getting some free money and some nice tax benefits. But after the 401(k), I think a Roth IRA is a great way to save for your retirement—and also any other up-and-coming life expenses at the same time. For one, you can start saving in a Roth IRA at any age, you just need to have some legit income to get going. And the earlier you start, the more you can save, of course. The Roth IRA is also a really flexible account and is an excellent hedge when you're not sure exactly what to save for; for example, you can take out your contributions at any point without a penalty and without paying taxes on the withdrawals. So if you're in bind and need some cash in an emergency, your Roth could be a decent option.
But the Roth IRA also allows you to take up to $10,000 (including earnings) for the purchase of your first home. So for a lot of young people who are trying to save up to buy a house, this is a way to put your savings—plus some tax-free earnings—toward a major, and critical, life purchase if you need it. Plus, if you're married and your spouse has a Roth IRA, you can take out another $10,000 toward the purchase of your first home. Not a bad amount when you're saving up for a down payment.
