- "Our strong belief in Catholic education led us to choose St. Patrick School. We knew it provided strong academics and personalized learning, but our children gained so much more . . . caring teachers, students that share strong ethical values, and opportunities to explore and develop many talents."
- "We choose St. Patrick School for the welcoming environment, outstanding academic program, technology, and opportunities that are not available to students elsewhere. We are not Catholic but the incorporation of religion into the school day strengthens our children's faith--good Christian values build great character."

I teach a variety of courses in ancient and medieval European history. I am also the coordinator of the Classical Studies minor program and the faculty adviser to the Women's and Men's Ultimate (Frisbee) Clubs -- a sport that I have played for more than 20 years.
- Foundations of Western Civilization (100)
- Ithaca Seminar: Thinking with Animals in the Middle Ages (100)
- Medieval Civilization (200)
- The Ancient World: Greece and Rome (200)
- Early Science and Medicine in the West (200)
- Monks, Heretics, and Scholars (300)
- Ancient Greece (300)
- Seminar: Medieval Heresy
- Seminar: Renaissance of the Twelfth Century
- Seminar: The Conversion of Rome
- Lucretius, De rerum natura [On the Nature of Things] (1-credit Honors seminar)
My research focuses on the intersections of medicine, philosophy, theology, and natural philosophy (or "science") in the later Middle Ages and early Renaissance. I am especially interested in changing conceptions of the relationship between body, soul, and mind, and of human nature as a whole. I am also interested in thought about animals and comparisons between animals and humans.
Current projects:
- My main project is a book entitled: Medical Anthropology in the Late Middle Ages: Body, Soul, and the Virtues according to Peter of Abano (d. 1316). This book considers ways that medical theory contributed to new ways of conceptualizing human nature in the late Middle Ages.
- As a longer-term project, together with Pieter De Leemans at the University of Leuven in Belgium, I am editing Peter of Abano's commentary on the Aristotelian Problems, an interesting collection of questions about nature from the ancient world.
- "Medicine and Moral Virtue in the Expositio Problematum Aristotelis of Peter of Abano," Early Science and Medicine 11 (2006), 302-335.
- (with Pieter De Leemans) "Animals and Anthropology in Medieval Philosophy," in A Cultural History of Animals, vol. 2: The Medieval Age, ed. B. Resl (Oxford: Berg Publishers, 2007), 153-178 and 228-232 (notes).
- "A Medical Perspective on the Soul as Form of the Body: Peter of Abano on the Reconciliation of Galen and Aristotle," in Psychology and the Other Disciplines: A Case of Cross-Disciplinary Interaction (1250-1750), ed. Paul J. J. M. Bakker, Sander de Boer, and Cees Leijenhorst (Leiden: Brill, 2012), 275-295.
- "Les complexions vertueses: La physiologie des vertus dans l'anthropologie médicale de Pietro d'Abano," (trans. by A. Robert) Médiévales 63 (Fall 2012), 59-74.

Regardless, Bell is done for the season, and the Dolphins now have to figure out what to do in the secondary.
Travares Tillman, who started last season before being replaced in the lineup by Bell, figures to take over as the starting safety alongside Renaldo Hill.
Another potential consequence of Bell's injury could be that 2006 first-round pick Jason Allen could go back to safety. That's the position Allen played last year before he was switched this offseason.
Cameron said a decision on how to compensate for Bell's absence would be made in the next couple of days.
For Bell, this was just another bad break in a career that's starting to have too many of them.
As a rookie in 2003, Bell broke an ankle while he was on the practice squad. He played the first 13 games the following season before fracturing his right tibia.
Bell played all 16 games in a reserve role in 2005 and moved into the starting lineup in the sixth game of the 2006 season.
Not coincidentally, the Dolphins defense really picked up its game after the athletic and aggressive Bell moved into the starting lineup last year.
Now, the Dolphins will have to make do without him, and that's clearly a blow for the defense.

The U.S. House passed a last-ditch Senate compromise Tuesday night to save America from falling off the fiscal cliff.
But this latest exercise in kicking the can down the budgetary road hasnt really slowed Washingtons stumble down the path toward bottom-line oblivion.
Yes, relieved investors indulged in a short-term celebration Tuesday as the stock market rose sharply in the wake of the accord. However, while the middle-class has been spared for a year the automatic tax hikes that would have come from a fiscal cliff dive, the dreaded across-the-board spending cuts have been delayed for only 60 days.
In other words, another fiscal cliff looms in March.
So does another round of political brinkmanship leading to yet more postponement of difficult decisions by federal lawmakers and President Barack Obama.
Those elected officials took 17 months to reach their last-day, responsibility-dodging agreement. Why should Americans have any confidence that another two months will produce a more responsible outcome?
And when, if ever, will the president and Democratic congressional leaders admit that a comprehensive overhaul of federal entitlement programs is not an option but a necessity?
President Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid successfully resisted Republican efforts to include entitlement reform in the fiscal-cliff deal.
As Washington Post financial columnist Robert Samuelson aptly put it Tuesday: The crux of our problem the problem being the bipartisan and untenable promises made to most Americans of both high government benefits and low taxes arises from an aging population and high health costs, which cause rapid increases in spending on Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
Erskine Bowles and Alan Simpson, co-chairs of President Obamas bipartisan debt commission, also expressed justified disappointment in the compromise. From a statement they released Wednesday:
We have all known for over a year that this fiscal cliff was coming. In fact Washington politicians set it up to force themselves to seriously deal with our nations long-term fiscal problems. Yet even after taking the country to the brink of economic disaster, Washington still could not forge a common-sense bipartisan consensus on a plan that stabilizes the debt.
Many GOP House members echoed that criticism of the bill the Senate passed by an 89-8 margin in the wee hours of Tuesday morning. South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, who has repeatedly warned of the dire consequences if across-the-board defense cuts were inflicted, voted for the bill. Outgoing Sen. Jim DeMint did not vote.
Though GOP House leaders were divided on the legislation, enough reluctant Republicans realized that with the new Congress being sworn in this week, they faced a take-it-or-leave-it proposition. And leaving it would have raised taxes on all Americans and imposed those severe spending cuts.
So 85 Republicans but none of the five GOP House members from our state joined 172 Democrats in passing the Senate bill by a 257-167 margin.
Some Democrats were disappointed that the agreement raised taxes from 35 to 39.6 percent only on Americans with incomes of more than $400,000 (for those filing as individuals) or $450,000 (for married couples filing jointly). The president had proposed setting those bars at $200,000 and $250,000, respectively.
Still, the Democrats were able to hike not just the income tax but the capital-gains tax (from 15 to 20 percent) on those above the $400,000/$450,000 levels.
Despite projections, its not clear how much additional revenue this bill will generate. Nor is it known how much investment the higher capital-gains rates will deter.
What is obvious, though, is that long-overdue hard calls required to slow the flood of federal red ink have again been dodged.
As for the presidents far-fetched claims that the bill contains meaningful spending reductions, consider by contrast the estimates of the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office. The CBO cites only $15 billion in such cuts and $620 billion in tax hikes.
That 41-to-1 ratio dwarfs past compromises in which Republicans agreed to tax hikes in exchange for Democratic concessions on spending cuts.
And history teaches that while those tax hikes generally take effect immediately (as they do now), the spending cuts are promised for much later and routinely are averted by subsequent legislation.
Otherwise, our national debt wouldnt be a record $16 trillion and rising.
Meanwhile, even if youre not making $400,000 or more a year, youll see a significant tax hike in your next paycheck: Your Social Security contribution will revert to 6.2 percent. It was lowered to 4.2 percent two years ago in an effort to help stimulate the economy.
There will also be new taxes and fees imposed in the coming year as more of the misnamed Patient Protection and Affordable Care Acts provisions take effect.
So, yes, there is some measure of relief that we havent fallen off the fiscal cliff.
But thanks to this latest deflection of fiscal responsibility, more perilous cliffs lie ahead.

The Tomb and Other Tales
by H.P. Lovecraft
by H.P. Lovecraft
Cassie's review
bookshelves: american-classics, short-story-collections, halloween-reads
Oct 26, 2013
bookshelves: american-classics, short-story-collections, halloween-reads
Read from September 14 to 19, 2011
I find with Lovecraft that when he's good he is so good, and when he's bad he is incredibly slow and it's nearly unbearable. This collection contains hits and misses. My favorites included: "The Tomb", "The Festival", "The Strange High House in the Mist", "In the Walls of Eryx", "The Alchemist", "The Street," and "The Transition of Juan Romero." Despite the ones that I didn't enjoy, the book was worth it for those that I loved reading. Definitely another good Lovecraft collection.

NEW YORK - After a bullish staff meeting (which ended with a cheer) and before a wardrobe fitting (strictly suit-and-tie), Jimmy Fallon took time to marvel at how busy he is these days.
"The busiest I've ever been in my life," he tells a visitor to the new "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" offices at NBC.
"It's 'SNL' times three. Times five. Times 10!" says the former "Saturday Night Live" cast member who, come Monday, will claim the weeknight 11:30 p.m. slot chartered in 1982 by David Letterman, then, in 1993, bequeathed to Conan O'Brien.
As Fallon speaks, he seems to hover more than settle in his chair in his seventh-floor corner office. Happily wired, he notes with amazement that, with so much to do, it's almost noon - "and the next thing you know it's midnight and you go, 'I hope my wife's not mad.'"
As if anyone could be mad at Jimmy Fallon! At age 34, he's puppy-dog enthusiastic, funny and cool in an unassuming way. It's an engaging blend that kept viewers tickled for six seasons on "SNL," where he scored with impressions of Jerry Seinfeld, John Travolta and Justin Timberlake, and created recurring characters like Nick Burns, the know-it-all tech-support guy. He has appeared in films including "Almost Famous," "Taxi" and "Fever Pitch."
Then, last spring, Fallon was tapped by "Late Night" executive producer Lorne Michaels (his former "SNL" boss) to return to the halls of 30 Rock, this time as host of his own show.
The idea had been broached long before, when he was exiting "SNL," Fallon says.
"Lorne was like, 'Keep in mind that Conan's gonna need a replacement in 2009.' This was in 2004. I said, 'I don't know.'"
Now Fallon is clearly putting his stamp on the venerable "Late Night" franchise. His house band is the acclaimed hip-hop group The Roots. Running the show is veteran "SNL" producer Michael Shoemaker, who handled "Weekend Update" when Fallon was co-anchoring. And to help connect the show to a cyber-savvy public, "Late Night's" co-producer is Gavin Purcell, who ran "Attack of the Show," the daily Net-centric news hour on cable's G4 channel.
In the spirit of the YouTube age, "Late Night" writers will shoot their comedy pieces themselves ("they can use me if they want, or not, but I'm available," says Fallon), then edit them right in the office on Macs.
"We can be different and topical and fun," Fallon vows.
Not that any of this strategy has been a state secret. For months, "Late Night" has been percolating in cyberspace with video blogs that offer an inside look at how a TV talk show germinates. The Fallon-era "Late Night" is already adhering to a policy of transparency.
And also interactiveness. Item: On his video blog, Fallon introduced to the world the show's new logo - which viewers of that "vlog" had a hand in selecting.
"We're not trying to ignore the fact that people are in front of a computer at work and surf the Web all day long, or that kids check the Internet when they get home from school," Fallon says. "We want to exploit that, and have fun with it. I'm on Facebook and I've been on Twitter just talking to my fans. It's amazing!"
He recalls an experience a few weeks ago attending the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
"Across the street - I'm not kidding - was the Adult Entertainment Expo." So he fired a text message to his followers on Twitter. "I said, 'There's got to be some great jokes about this. Give 'em to me!' And in about a minute I had hundreds. Like: 'I got a coupon to double my RAM, and I don't know which place to use it.'
"How cool is that! Maybe we can incorporate something like that in the show."
But on his newfangled talk show there also will be guests who visit and talk with him, the old-fashioned way.
Scheduled for opening night is Robert De Niro, with others including Cameron Diaz, Serena Williams and Fallon's former "Weekend Update" co-anchor Tina Fey soon to follow.
"I'll also talk to scientists and chefs and animal trainers," Fallon pledges with a grin.
He isn't fretting about his competition - at least, not obvious rivals, notably CBS' "Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson," which, head-to-head against Conan, has been winning in total viewers.

Margot Thome studied Biochemistry at the University of Tübingen and the University of Arizona, and carried out her PhD work in the laboratory of Oreste Acuto at the Pasteur Institute in Paris. As a postdoctoral fellow she worked with Jürg Tschopp at the University of Lausanne, where she identified human and viral FLIP proteins as key apoptosis regulators. She became Assistant Professor of the Swiss National Science Foundation at the Department of Biochemistry of the University of Lausanne in 2004, and was appointed Associate Professor in 2009. Since 2015 she is the Deputy Director of the Department
Research Interests
Present work of the Thome laboratory focuses on the study of signaling pathways that control lymphocyte activation and survival and the development of lymphomas.
Lymphocytes play a crucial role in the defense against pathogens and tumor cells. One focus of our research is to understand the molecular mechanisms that control the activation of T-lymphocytes, initiated upon triggering of the T-cell antigen receptor by MHC-bound antigen. This leads to the initiation of multiple signaling pathways that regulate changes in cell shape and gene expression that are critical for efficient T-cell activation, proliferation and survival. Another focus of our research is to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying aberrant lymphocyte proliferation and survival that occurs in certain lymphoid tumors (lymphomas). By uncovering new molecular players and enzymatic activities relevant to these pathways, we aim at identifying possible targets for therapeutic immuno-modulation or treatment of lymphomas.
Key words: Antigen receptor, Signaling, NF-κB, Lymphocytes, Lymphoma

A handful of New York residents and environmental activist groups are suing the City of New York, the Parks Department, and Lincoln Center over the use of Damrosch Park, a 2.44-acre park on the Upper West Side. The lawsuit claims that the city has effectively, but illegally, handed over management of the park to Lincoln Center, and that the events the performing arts center holds there — including the iconic Fashion Week — have taken over the space and rendered it unusable for the public.Continue Reading →
Last Friday's launch of the New York City Ballet Art Series was a confusing affair. I was not the only person to arrive at Lincoln Center expecting that art collective Faile's "collaboration" with the New York City Ballet would be more than lobby art.Continue Reading →
Most people, when they think of Lincoln Center, think of the performing arts: theater, opera, dance, music. But the iconic New York arts center also has a strong visual art program — one that's actually been commissioning and producing prints from such artists as Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy Lichtenstein, Sol Lewitt, Helen Frankenthaler, Frank Stella, Glenn Ligon, and Chuck Close for the past fifty years.
The Lincoln Center Vera List Art Project was founded by philanthropist and arts patron Vera List, who became involved with Lincoln Center early on. List believed in the power of art and the importance of its accessibility to the general public, so she started the Art Project, which commissions contemporary artists to create posters and limited-edition prints for Lincoln Center.Continue Reading →
Barbara Kruger might not be a household name, but the artist's signature graphic aesthetic is instantly familiar.

Partners Bristol-Myers Squibb and Pfizer failed to win FDA approval for use of the oral Factor Xa inhibitor Eliquis® (apixaban) in the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. The agency's Complete Response Letter (CRL) requested additional information on data management and verification from the Phase III Aristotle trial, but hasn't asked for the completion of any new studies.
The firms say they will work with the drug regulator to define the next steps toward achieving approval. In the meantime Eliquis is under review in the EU and Japan for the stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation indication, backed by data from 24,000 patients in the pivotal Aristotle and Averroes studies.
Eliquis was approved in Europe in May 2010 for use in the prevention of venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in adults undergoing elective hip or knee replacement surgery. The clinical program for the anticoagulant is projected to include some 60,000 patients across multiple indications, and includes nine completed or ongoing Phase III studies.
BMS and Pfizer teamed up in 2007 to develop Eliquis, which was originally discovered by BMS. Under terms of the initial development plan, Pfizer funds 60% of all development costs, and the firms jointly develop the clinical and marketing strategy, and share commercialization expenses and profits equally on a global basis. BMS manufactures the product.

DENVER -- Down by 21 points in the second quarter, the Denver Nuggets turned what had the earmarks of a lopsided loss into their biggest comeback victory of the season.
Carmelo Anthony scored 24 points and the Nuggets rallied past the Los Angeles Clippers, 98-90 on Saturday night.
"You learn a lot about your team in those situations," said Chauncey Billups, who chipped in 14 points for the Nuggets. "You learn who's ready to fold the tent and you learn who's ready to say, 'All right, let's do what we need to do to get back in the game. I thought today we fought back. We just weren't going to let it happen."
|Complete Playoff Race
Nene added 18 points and Johan Petro, who stepped into Denver's starting lineup a month ago in place of injured Kenyon Martin (knee), had a season-high 14 points in helping Denver win its second in a row since a 1-5 stretch.
Petro had 12 of his points in the third quarter, including a dunk that gave the Nuggets their first lead.
"I got hot," Petro said. "The guys did a great job finding me.
"We know how important the last few games are going to be for us, so it's all about going hard performing, and trying to get the W's. We don't want to lose any more nights."
Denver improved to 50-27, the Nuggets' third consecutive 50-win season, all under coach George Karl, who has been absent the past couple weeks due to an intensifying regimen of cancer treatments.
With five games remaining in the regular season, the Nuggets pulled into a tie with Utah for first place in the Northwest Division, along with tying the Jazz, Dallas and Phoenix for the second seed in the Western Conference playoffs. There's no word yet on when Karl will return to the bench.
"We won the game, but you don't like to start off like that," said acting head coach Adrian Dantley, 9-7 filling in for Karl. "We just can't keep continuing to do that. The guys fought back hard and played great defense, but why spot a team that many points?"
Eric Gordon had 23 points to lead the Clippers, who lost their seventh straight to the Nuggets in Denver. Chris Kaman added 14 points and 11 rebounds.
Los Angeles coach Kim Hughes said the things that went right for the Clippers started going wrong in the second half.
"We didn't make shots," he said. "We took poor outside shots, instead of going inside. We lost the game with turnovers again."
The Clippers had 20 turnovers to the Nuggets' seven. Steve Blake nearly had as many turnovers (nine) as points (12).
Denver played without one of its key reserves, forward Chris Andersen, who sat out because of a sprained left ankle sustained in the fourth quarter Thursday night against Portland. The Clippers were without guard Baron Davis (back spasms).
Travis Outlaw, who scored 12 points for the Clippers, left with a strained right groin in the fourth quarter and did not return.
Down by eight points at halftime, the Nuggets fought back to take a 65-63 lead with 6:25 remaining in the third quarter when Anthony drove the lane before passing off to Petro, who finished with a dunk.
The score was tied at 69 when J.R. Smith hit a 3-pointer, followed by a layup by Ty Lawson to put the Nuggets back in front 74-69 and Denver took a 76-71 lead into the fourth quarter.
By the time Billups drained a 3-pointer with 4:27 remaining, the Nuggets stretched their lead to 96-83.
Early on, it appeared the Clippers were going to blow out the Nuggets. Denver trailed 34-25 after the first quarter and fell behind 49-28 after Outlaw converted a four-point play with 8:07 left in the second quarter.
But the Nuggets got back into the game with a 13-2 run, pulling to 51-41 when Billups had a steal to start a fast break that Anthony finished with a jam.
A fast-break layup by Lawson cut it to 55-47 at halftime.
- Denver previously twice erased 17-point deficits this season, most recently against Sacramento on Feb. 1.
- The Nuggets have six 50-win seasons in their history.
- The Clippers haven't won in Denver since Jan. 27, 2006.
- The Clippers are 8-32 on the road after beginning the season 5-6 away from home.

Georgia Peach Bread
Total Time
Prep 12 mins
Cook 5 mins
A well textured, moist not overly sweet loaf. Took a loaf to work and everyone loved it.I've made this recipe several times. I used a good quality of canned peaches and it came out perfect. I copied this recipe from 50 plus sight.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups sugar
- 1⁄2 cup Butter Flavor Crisco
- 2 eggs
- 2 1⁄4 cups fresh peaches, pureed
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup finely chopped pecans
- Cream sugar and shortning. Add eggs and mix thoroughly. Puree peaches in a blender, add to creamed mixture with dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly. Add vanilla extract and chopped nuts, stir until blended. Pour into two 9x5 inch well greased and floured loaf pans. Bake 325 degrees 55 to 60 minutes. Let set in pans a few minutes before removing.
- p.s.

This bread is moist & soft. I do usually like my breads on the sweeter side & in the future will probably dust the pans with cinnamon & sugar instead of the flour. I have never tried peach bread before but was pleasantly surprised with the subtle peach flavor. The one thing I was not expecting is for them to not rise. I know I used fresh baking powder as I baked Citrus Loaf yesterday & didn't have a problem with it's rising. I didn't use the nuts this time as I'm feeding 12 tomorrow, some with allergies, but next time I'll be sure to add them, as pecans are my favorite. Thanks for sharing, nita! Made for PAC Spring 2009 Orphanage.
This bread was pretty good. I made a few changes. I subbed half whole wheat flour for ap and used 1 quart canned peaches drained. It wasn't quite sweet enough for me so I drizzled some frosting on top. I wasn't able to add the nuts because some of the kids I made it for don't care for them. I do think the nuts would have been a great addition.
I liked the idea of using fresh pureed fruit for this bread and that is the reason I chose it to make and I was not dissapointed, this is a wonderful moist bread that rose nicely when baked, the only change I made was I increased the vanilla to 1 tablespoon and the cinnamon to 1-1/2 teaspoons, I baked mine in two 8x4-inch pans instead of 9x5 which worked out well, I will make this recipe again and try pureed strawberries also, thank you for shaing hon, 5 stars all the way!...Kitten

Most people filing for bankruptcy want to do so for as inexpensively as possible, as the purpose for bankruptcy is to start over on a sound financial footing. If you don't have a lot of money to spend, you might be thinking about forgoing the help of bankruptcy lawyers in Memphis, TN, and taking care of the petition yourself. While there are some filings that are simple and straightforward enough for the petitioner to file successfully without legal counsel, on the whole most petitions are complex and involved, and the help of a lawyer is of great benefit.
Why You Need a Bankruptcy Lawyer
Bankruptcy lawyers can make a world of difference in your bankruptcy petition. If you want an advocate who can provide counsel, take much of the work load off of your hands, and ensure that you are in compliance with the guidelines regarding bankruptcy, then you should take a second look at hiring a legal advocate:
- Lawyers help with restructuring payments: If you are filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you will be required to come up with a revised payment plan for paying back your creditors. This is not something you can do on your own. You will need a credit counselor or an attorney to help you develop a plan that will be accepted by the court.
- Lawyers help you make decisions: The first decision you must make following your decision to file for bankruptcy is to determine which type of bankruptcy is right for you.Chapter 7 bankruptcy is the most commonly petitioned type of bankruptcy. If you have little income and few assets, you might be a good candidate for this type of petition.Chapter 13 bankruptcy is best for petitioners who have a higher income than the median and a lot of assets that they want to hold on to. Determining which petition to file can be difficult, and it is not always a straightforward or simple decision. A legal advocate can help you to choose the right type of bankruptcy petition to file based upon your finances.
- Lawyers do all the paperwork: There is a lot of paperwork involved in a bankruptcypetition. This paperwork needs to be accurate and thorough. A bankruptcy lawyer is qualified to gather this information and will fill out the necessary paperwork to ensure that your petition is granted. Most petitioners simple do not have the time or the expertise to gather all of that paperwork on their own.
- Lawyers keep you on track: There are several actions that you need to stay away from if you are planning on filing for bankruptcy. Such actions include shifting or re-allocating money, paying off debts to family members, incurring new debt, and being dishonest about your finances or your assets. Additionally, you are required to have credit counseling, meet with your creditors, and meet several other deadlines. A lawyer will help you to stay on track with your progress as well as help you to avoid having your claim denied or end up facing legal action based upon your actions prior to filing for bankruptcy.
- Lawyers increase your odd of acceptance: Petitioning for bankruptcy is an involved process. While Chapter 7 filings are often completed within 3-6 months, other types of filings may take longer. For example, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is more complex, and therefore many petitioners who file without a lawyer end up being denied their petition by the court. If you want to increase your odds of a favorable outcome and get started on healing your finances and your credit, then bankruptcy lawyers in Memphis, TN, are well worth the amount you will spend on your legal fees.

We keep meaning to make it over to the Romance Writers Association annual shindig, being held this weekend at the Hyatt Regency downtown. But since something always keeps coming up, we'll rely instead on my new favorite-named Web site: Smart Bitches Who Love Trashy Novels. Among their "random thoughts" so far (the best follows after the jump, by a wide mile):
1. HOLY SHIT navigating to the Hyatt Regency is two bitches and a half. I'm lucky I have friends in the area I could call and to whom I could wail "Halp halp I'm lost and on some crazy street called Zang!" (Sounds kind of like a tentacled alien--like Kodos and Kang's incompetent younger brother.) ...
6. Some really interesting conversations ensued with Victoria Dahl and Jennifer Echols about bisexuality in romance novel heroes, and common perceptions of bisexuality in general. I'll see if I can marshall those thoughts into something resembling coherency in a bit....
7. Favorite exchange of the night:
"What do they call that deep-tissue massage?"
"Don't they just call it 'deep-tissue massage'?"
"No, no. Rolfing! That's it. It's called rolfing."
"Y'know, that sounds dirtybadwrong. Like, an incredibly perverse sex act that involves bodily excretions that have no business being excreted during sex."
"I think it sounds more like one step up from fisting."
"Oh, so, like, a foot."
"Inserted up the ass."
"And 'ROLF' is the sound they make when the foot is inserted."
"Nononono -- they say 'Rolf' because they wear dog suits while they're doing this."
"Oooh yes! Furry sex!"
We are now more sorry than you can imagine that we're missing this. --Robert Wilonsky

Primstaven; Mass of the Cross
September 14 Mass (Latin Exaltatio SANCTAE Crucis) was held in memory of Jesus' cross caused the cross was re-found in Jerusalem by the Roman emperor Constantine I's mother, Holy Helena, in the year 320. The same was celebrated May 3, but this date is wrong, according to the Pope.
St. Helena, or Flavia Helena, was born ca. year 250. She has her Catholic Memorial Day August 18 and is known as the patron-saint of the retrieval of lost or stolen items.
Cross of Christ
According to the legend Helena found three crosses and four spikes in a pit just east of Calvary in Jerusalem on September 14 320. To determine on which the cross Jesus had been crucified, a dead woman was hanged to the crosses in turn. Hanging in one of the crosses, the woman woke up. It was of course, the cross of Christ.
In France, a practice of celebrating the return of the cross was arranged on May 3, because they mixed up two dates.
Double celebration
The custom spread to Rome and brought to the celebration at both May 3 and September 14. In 1960 the Pope addressed the misunderstanding and abolished the celebration of May 3.
Loss No. 2
The Holy Cross was lost again when the Persian king Chosroës attacked Jerusalem in 614. May 3 in 628 the cross was brought back by the Emperor Heraklios after a military campaign against Persia. March 21 in 629 the cross should have been placed again in its old place in Jerusalem.
Loss No. 3
Otherwise, the story says that the Holy Cross was lost for good in the battle of Hattin in Galilee in 1187. It was taken by non-Christians when it was carried by the Bishop of Bethlehem. This did not prevent that pieces of the cross of Jesus became good commodity as a relic in the Middle Ages.
Autumn day
At this time of year the grain is in the house. In some places the day was last 'bufardag', when they closed the farms for the winter and took the cattle home from summer pastures. The day marked the fall began in earnest.
Primstav label is a cross.

Just now on campus, an older man came up behind me and said "I like how you walk" I turned around startled and he repeated "I like the way you are walking". I muttered thanks under my breath, hoping he would walk away, but I guess he didn't hear me because he said "say thank you" and then louder "SAY THANK YOU!" I stared him down and didn't say a word, even though I was scared of his aggressive attitude.
A man in a pickup truck yelled to me from traffic about my appearance as I was walking to work.

Hi Hollas,
We hope your week is going well. Here at headquarters we are busy bees buzzing from project to project keeping everything pollinated and growing. Executive Director Emily spent time in Spokane, Washington doing a training with the Washington Coalition for Sexual Assault Prevention. We also released episode 6 of our vlog With Love and Revolution which explores our stance on criminalization of street harassment. Speaking of videos, an amazing young filmmaker created the awesome short film STOP.
On top of all of these great projects, we took the time to stop and smell the roses this week and celebrate 2 great events. First, we met our goal for our Kickstarter campaign raising $20,989 with the amazing support of 572 backers. Second, Executive Director Emily celebrated her 5 year anniversary of founding Hollaback! as a nonprofit this week. How awesome is that!?
If this week has been as busy for you as it has been for us, make sure to take some time this weekend for self care. These kicks sites could definitely use some rest and relaxation with all the great work they've been doing:
Hollaback! Bahamas attended the Peace Revolution Central America and Caribbean fellowship in Guatemala.
Hollaback! Poland site leader Agnieszka Biela gave a lecture on street harassment during the conference at Jagiellonian University.
Hollaback! Peterborough had their launch party. They had a press conference before hand & then a wonderful evening of slam poetry, musical performances & a cat costume contest. They've also gotten local media television & radio spots and were interviewed for CBC Radio!
Hollaback! Las Vegas is hosting an Activist's ABCs camp for youth activists in June. Interested in signing up? Email [email protected]
Take a break this weekend so we can meet next week with a storm!
Holla and out!
I had been to the hospital and was unfamiliar with the bus route and had to wait for about an hour in central Halifax. Whilst walking towards Smiths a group of men dispersed in the crowd were watching me. At least one asked me if I had been paid for it. I was harassed for ten minutes on and off and I felt uncomfortable standing near the bus stop. I dislike smokers and found I could only waste ten minutes in the vegan cafe that I only discovered about six weeks ago. I felt very uncomfortable going to do a bit of shopping. As a staunch Christian feminist I will avoid like the plague the area as it is clearly unsafe. I try not to use public transport at all and I stopped going to Bradford due to the roaring car engines and thumping car radios.
I chose Halifax hospital due to it being nice and modern but it is too far to go if travelling by bus.
Just now my neighbour's daughter's boyfriend said something derogatory as I was mowing the lawn.

Julia Retzlaff, an amazing young (18 year-old!!) filmmaker created the awesome short film STOP. about street harassment. Julia has worked as a T.A. for the Bay Area Video Coalition's (BAVC) beginning video track as well as a freelance editor and researcher for BAVC Productions. We are so excited to see young emerging artists speaking to the realities of street harassment. According to our recent study, 85% of US women report experiencing their first harassment before the age of 17.
I believe it was my senior year of high school. I had dressed up nicely that day, wearing a dress – heels and all – to promote a dance concert that was the following evening. During one of my classes I left, most likely to use the restroom, and on my way back to the classroom I was approached by a male student in the hallway. I had never met him before, he was probably in a different grade, so I continued walking past him. He started trying to get my attention by calling me "shawty". He began following me down the hallway yelling things at me. "Damn girl, why you all dressed up?" "You look real good today." "Why don't you turn around so I can get a good look at ya?" I did what most women do and ignored him. He then became angry. I could hear is pace slow behind me until he stopped and shouted, "Fine. Rude bitch."
I never said anything to this boy or school authorities (which I now realize I should have at least brought it to their attention) but it does worry me that even though his volume was so loud, in an empty hallway, with classes going on, that none of the teachers or students thought it necessary to stop harassment on school grounds. That was not the only time I was the victim of cat-calling on campus during school hours. It never even mattered what I was wearing or if I was alone or if the harasser was alone.
Street harassment shouldn't happen anywhere, let alone the halls of a school. I would urge Eaglecrest High School to pay more attention to the way their students treat their classmates. I can assure them I was not breaking the dress code that day or any day, but it never stopped me from being the target of someone's harassment.

STOP is a short street harassment film created and directed by Julia Retzlaff.
Julia Retzlaff is an 18 year-old filmmaker who will be attending San Francisco State University in the fall of 2015. Her films have played in youth festivals across the country. Julia has worked as a T.A. for the Bay Area Video Coalition's (BAVC) beginning video track as well as a freelance editor and researcher for BAVC Productions. On her off time, Julia writes poetry and indulges her cinephile side. Some of her favorite films include Nowhere by Gregg Araki, La Haine, and Dark Days.
Check out the film below and look for more films on our Youtube Channel:
To save money, I ride public transportation to work. Every day something inappropriate is said about my appearance and body, but this past Friday I was genuinely afraid. I was riding the bus to the metrolink. There were not any seats left, so I stood. I did not mind standing. Then this man stood up from his seat and said "Baby, come on have my seat. Sit down, baby" and I declined the offer. He insisted and was not going to sit down. So, I accepted the seat. When I approached the seat he got in my space and turned with me and I fell into the seat and he boxed me in. Then he started talking about how sexy he thought I was. And then smelled me and said I smelled nice too. Then I tried to ignore him, but he was so close and I did not know what he was going to do. He kept talking "If I was your man, I would never let go of you, baby let me be your man" me: "No, I already have somebody and we are very happy." bystanders laugh as this goes on. Mt eyes search for someone to care, or help. But my eyes only see smiles. One man tells him to lay off me through spurts of laughter. Then the harasser reaches in his bag and gives me a disc. The same man who told him to layoff says: "girl, do not throw that away, that is a free movie and it is money" and I continue to try my best to ignore both of them…finally it is my stop and I make my way off that bus as fast as I can and throw the damn disc away, too. I am just so tired of this happening to me. I am sick of being told it is my fault because of my body type and appearance.
One of my friends that I had known for a few months sent me a dm on Twitter. He tried to ask me out and I told him I had a boyfriend. After learning this, he persistently asked for nudes saying things like "it doesn't have to be shirtless" and "it's not that bad", "can I at least get a look at your underwear drawer?".
I told him no and I had no idea what to do.
After a week I finally told my parents. He got in trouble (not a lot) and I got grounded and interrogated on "what I said to provoke it".
We were 15.
We're back with our HOLLA-Who series, profiling the amazing site leaders who take on street harassment in their local communities. In the HOLLA-Who series, we learn about what street harassment is like around the world, and what activists are doing today to push back and fight for the right to equal access to public spaces.
Today we're talking with the amazing Julia from Hollaback! London. Julia, and other members of the HB London team, have been running the site since 2010. That's five years of standing up to street harassment and changing the face of street harassment activism across the pond!
Why did you start the Hollaback! site in London (five years ago!), what inspired you to join on?
"I started the London site because I was feeling fed up with the harassment I experienced in my home city, being made to feel I had less of a right to my own streets and spaces. I wanted to provide a non-judgmental space for people to share their stories, regain some power after their experience and hopefully achieve some sort of parallel justice. Hollaback! means to me true grass roots activism. Getting up and speaking out after years of being silenced. It's the thing that allowed me to identify my feminism, it's the thing that empowered me to stand up for what I believe in. It's the thing that sparked a career in the women's sector. So it means a whole lot."
What's been going on in Hollaback! London recently?
"Last year we launched the first project working with late night venues to train staff to better support customers in the event of harassment or assault. It's called Good Night Out."
Say you're the Queen for a day. What would you do to end street harassment?
"I'd put men in women's shoes so they could see."
What was your first experience with street harassment?
"When I was eight, a boy who lived on my block told me I needed to start shaving my legs. He also punched my sister once and called us bastards because our parents weren't married. He was a dreadful, dreadful boy!"
Given that you've had years to perfect it, what's your signature Hollaback!?
"Just flip 'em the bird."
We're all about the right to wear whatever you want. What's your personal style?
"I like to aspire to 90's power woman, a lot of shoulder pads! Still getting there!"
Serious question time. Would you rather have a dragon or be a dragon?
"Be a dragon!! Come on!"
What is your proudest HOLLA-Moment so far?
"Launching Good Night Out, so so proud."
If you could leave the world one piece of advice, what would it be?
"Don't judge, and don't assume."
What are you excited about for 2015?
What inspires you in this work?
"All the women I meet and work with who quietly get on with changing the world for the better, piece by piece. Who do it with calm, and composure and passion."
And finally, in the year 2020, street harassment will be…
"Will be high up on the political agenda, and will be frowned upon by society. Will be hugely diminished since we all started shouting about it years ago!"
A big thank you to Julia from Hollaback! London. We are also *so excited* about the upcoming HOLLA::Revolution London. You can pick up your tickets today for the June 23rd event and catch local activists and performers taking on street harassment in London.
Holla and out!
