Women in Ancient Rome
Fri, 06 Sep 2013 08:11:02 PDT
When we view the women of Rome, we see them closest to the roles of nature: daughter, wife and mother. While the nature of Roman culture allowed for a relatively generous amount of freedom for its women, a sense of fear and trepidation toward women of the time existed. Within the core of Latin, we can note that those phenomena that are tempestuous or uncontrollable phenomena are typed feminine nouns. Notably, both the volatile natura (nature) and fortuna (fortune; luck), over which the Romans had absolutely no control in their age are solidly gendered as woman. Fortuna, when embodied, is a terrible goddess, as like to vengefully smite as she is to gently smile. This may show us something of the conceptions of women, while evincing something of the role expected of women: the force and influence they wielded was unpredictable, and must still be respected.

Things Made Visible
Fri, 06 Sep 2013 08:11:00 PDT
This book is a compilation of photographs of everyday objects/scenes, integrated with the appropriate type choices and type orientation, that create a defining commentary of the individual pictures. The goal of the book is to magnify the defining characteristics of my photographs to the person who may not initially recognize them.

Ranch Homes: Then and Now
Fri, 06 Sep 2013 08:10:59 PDT
This purpose of this project was to compare ranch homes in Overland Park built in the 1950s and 60s, to ranch homes built in the 2000s. Research ranged from census and demographic information, to research of typical ranch home plans from the 50s and 60s through today. Current real estate listing information was used to find square footage of home and lot sizes, number and sizes of bedrooms, bathrooms, garages, kitchen, dining, other living areas, and amenities. It was interesting to note that homes listed for sale in the 2000s were mainly new construction and not resale. From the information I was able to determine typical house and room sizes to create floor plans in Computer Aided Design (CAD) for the 1950s ranch homes, and current ranch homes. Exterior elevations were then drawn from the floor plans. The most significant changes between rooms of ranch homes built in the different time periods have been in the number of bathrooms, and the size of the master bathroom. Detailed CAD drawings were created of the floor plans and elevations from each time period. Other research included the influences that caused ranch homes to be built in the 1950s compared to the 2000s, the differences in the style of ranch homes in the different time periods as well as the growth of Overland Park since the 1950s. This research lead to information regarding the future housing needs due to population growth and the changes in household type, size, and the aging population.

Sectarian History: The Construction of Meaning in India
Fri, 06 Sep 2013 08:10:58 PDT
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the construction of religion and social identity in India. Religion is an incredibly complex social phenomenon and must be examined holistically for a true appreciation of history. This paper follows the idea of authority and legitimacy, why religions are adopted, who designs administrations around them and how those administrations are informed. This ties into an examination of history, how it is written and what purpose that writing serves from a social perspective. This paper also examines how meaning systems coexist and affect each other, and how they in fact evolve together in a reciprocal process of development, and how identities are formed across people, in terms of defining ones normative characteristics as well as the otherness of outsiders. By trying to envision the perspective of a group by unpacking the meaning system that underpins the groups understanding, it may be possible to discern the nature of some conflicts. This may also allow for a deeper understanding of why some groups seemingly adopt definitions of themselves that are not conducive to their own history, but rather a functional byproduct of a neighboring groups understanding. Finally, social divisions are examined from the perspective of observable religious syncretism in India, what factors brought it about, what sustained it, and why it disappears in some cases but not all. Honors project mentor: Eddie Boucher, Adjunct Professor, History

Inform 2009 & 2011
Tue, 21 May 2013 12:33:01 PDT
The 2009 PADO field season ran from June 8 to June 29 and the 2011 PADO field season extended from July 5 to July 25. Both were carried out by William McFarlane and Miranda Suri, along with 4 field school students from Johnson County Community College in 2009 and 9 students in 2011. The goals and objectives of both seasons of work, as well as a discussion of our methodologies and results, are described in this report. These seasons represent our third and fourth formal field seasons. Our primary goal over the course of both seasons was to complete small-scale excavations at the site of Sinsimbla, assess chronological and functional relationships among different components of the site, and begin to develop a ceramic sequence for the Jess de Otoro valley.
Unaccompanied Sonata: The Story and the Song
Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:50:58 PST
The paper is a review of Unaccompanied Sonata a short story published in Maps in a Mirror by Orson Scott Card. It served as the inspiration for an original musical composition with the same title. Unaccompanied Sonata, centers on Christian, a musical prodigy in a dystopian society. In a controlled world where everything and everyone has their place, Christians great love of music leads him to break the structured bonds holding his society together. The musical project took shape slowly after days of tossing ideas around. In the end, it became a reflection of my own personal journey throughout the several weeks it took to compose. Unaccompanied Sonata, is, at its most basic level, a reproduction of the plot of the like-titled short story. Listened to once, Unaccompanied Sonata is pleasing to the ear. Listened to again, as a companion to the story, there is an intense interplay of hope and despair, resistance and surrender, longing and desire that is intended to evoke a very real and personal response from the listener. Author statement on musical piece: "Unaccompanied Sonata," Orson Scott Card's short story of a musician caught in the machinery of a complex dystopian society, inspired me to compose an original musical piece in classical sonata form. Though I used the story as a model, what I created became much more than a simple reconstruction of the narrative in melodic form: the music took me on an unexpected journey of creative self-discovery. The result was an intensely personal reckoning that parallels the struggle and eventual catharsis of Card's central character. Both the sonata and my prose analysis of the writing process come together to form the musical and literary exploration I named after its inspiration, Unaccompanied Sonata.
Kangaroo Care
Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:50:56 PST
Kangaroo Care is described as skin on skin contact between parent and baby. The baby, wearing only a diaper, is placed directly on mom or dads bare chest. This skin on skin contact has proven to be beneficial for baby as well as the parents. Some of the positive effects for the baby include stabilizing vital signs such as temperature, heart rate, and respirations. Kangaroo care has also shown to facilitate breastfeeding and bonding in mothers. The benefits for parents include improved bonding and attachment. Parents have also reported feeling more competent and confident when caring for their newborn after they are released from the hospital. Kangaroo care is not only for healthy newborns; preterm newborns in the NICU have benefited from this method also. While there are more risks when dealing with preterm babies, they have shown an incredible positive response to this contact. Nurses should be educated on Kangaroo Care and know how to facilitate the family when participating in this care.

Robin Williams on Barack Obama, George Bush, Sarah Palin and Keith Richards?
News flash: Robin Williams is politically funnier than ever.
Listen to the rehabbed, newly single comic (introduced as Robbie Williams by John Cleese) talk to a British audience about President-elect Barack Obama's White House ("A basketball court in the Rose Garden!"), list George W. Bush's top comedy routines from his eight years in office and what the former POTUS will do when he leaves office ("Clearly, a speaking tour is out of the question").
Williams also compares John McCain to your crazy uncle who is on some new medication and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as being straight off a reality TV show, "Project Running Mate."
Williams explains to the Brits that he lives in California, where 60% of the population is Latino and the governor is Austrian.
"Even old Nazis are going, "That's weird."
And who knew he could do such a spot-on Keith Richards and Bono.
Watch the video. If you don't laugh at least once, let me know and I will send you a dollar.
Robin certainly is spot on with funny jokes about some of the political figures. He is so funny with his nonstop rapid fire delivery.. Seems to have a new lease on life. Wonder what he takes.
I laughed out loud. And I'm British...
i was watching that stand up live on tv here in the uk it was hilaiorus.
Mrs. Sarah Palin, the problem is not that the media hates you or it is about sexism. The real issue is you were not up to the job you were seeking. You sounded dumb and stupid most of the times and even my thirteen years old daughter thinks you are a disgrace to women, that is not sexism. Go back to school and improve yourself or get some good people around you and get back to learning American history, not radicalism right wing rubbish. may be the future might be kinder to you.
All of you that say unkind things about Sarah are so jealous of her. If you would put forth as much effort towards something constructive we would all be better off. You continue to bash her for every move she makes. No one has the right to judge, only OUR Heavenly Father.
And THAT, Mardeanne, is precisely why the rest of us so clearly see her as a moron and you elect not to.
See, it's no longer up for negotiation. We were right. Have been all along. The majority of the American public all saw the same thing. While I think it;s nice, sweet, noble for you to have these ecclesiastical ideals about what we're "allowed" to feel, perceive, and act upon, the bottom line is this:
MOST of us saw a yahoo and a nitwit embarrassing herself. We chose not to vote for her. SOME of you (hell, maybe you're better people than the rest of us. Good on you.) inexplicably dismiss these myriad examples of dismal stupidity and coddle her ineptitude. But hey, that's fair. I wouldn't vote for YOU either.
Personally, I hope she IS back in '12. Preferably paired with a more suitable running mate. Maybe a Tickle-Me Elmo. I don't necessarily want to throw my weight behind Obama 4 years hence until I've seen his performance, but I've definitely had enough Bush to last a lifetime.
Frankly I just just think of Palin as Bush in skirts what more does one need to say?
Robin Williams is a disgrace to his profession.
And the laughter from Great Britan makes me think of the little class the Palms have. By the time Barry Obama is done America will have fell to Socialism and on the verge
of a Civil War, or another revolution.
It's "will have fallen" Larry. Do please try to add a little class of your own if you are going to criticise others dear boy. There's a good chap. Nice and sunshiney in Arizona is it? Go get some and give your obviously overtaxed brain a rest.
It's "All of you who say unkind things," Mardeanne, not all of you that say unkind things. Plus, it's toward, not towards, Mardeanne, and I am not jealous of people who shoot God's beautiful wolves from aircraft; what, she eats all of the wolf meat too? What if you were a mother in a meadow with your offspring, and all of a sudden bullets were flying toward you and your children? Would that be God's will too, Mardeanne? I just wanna know. Does God love any of his Alaskan wild life, Mardeanne, or only the wildlife in the rest of the 49 states? No, not jealous, Mardeanne, sad. Very, very sad. I have a feeling that some of the attention concerns those terrible killings Sarah commits for sport, Mardeanne.

The attack has been condemned by the SDLP's Pat Convery.
He said: "This kind of savage attack is completely unacceptable. My thoughts and prayers are with one of the victims who has been rushed to hospital and is in a critical condition.
"No family should wake up to a knock on the door by police telling them that their son is lying in a critical condition in hospital after being brutally beaten. Those who are behind this callous attack are beneath contempt and will be rejected by this community.
"I would urge anyone who may have heard or seen anything suspicious to contact the PSNI at Antrim Road police station and help to bring these thugs to justice."

Countless Teleflora customers had their Valentine's Day blemished because their flowers didn't get delivered on time. It appears that the floral site's sexy Super Bowl commercial - featuring supermodel Adriana Lima - may have too hotly stoked brand loyalty among romantic suitors.
That's the theory from Lisa Mabe, founder of Washington, DC-based marketing and PR firm Hewar Communications. Mabe said her boyfriend's floral gift was not delivered to her in time for Valentine's Day.
"Word on the street here in Washington, DC is that none of the Teleflora orders in downtown DC were delivered until the day after Valentine's Day," she said. "Adriana Lima in Teleflora's recent Super Bowl ad proclaimed, 'Guys, Valentine's Day's not that complicated.' Well apparently it's complicated for Teleflora since they failed to deliver so many orders."
Teleflora's social media manager, fielding consumer complaints for the last two days, perhaps wishes Lima had toned it down a little in the big game ad. Evidently, one of the staffer's names is "Marvin," who has responded a few dozen times to Twitter posts for the last two days with this message:
"We sincerely apologize for the nondelivery. Please message us your order number so that we can resolve your issue. Thanks, Marvin."
On Facebook, Teleflora has authored two posts that apologize for the delayed deliveries while detailing how to reach the brand for service issues. Nearly 400 consumer comments have been written underneath the brand's posts, many of which were negative like this one seen early Thursday:
"4 days and I haven't received a response. People, be pro active! dispute the charges, take photos, place newspaper articles as i have done, call your local television channels as i have done and they are doing a story on it today. It's not the money, it's the principle of the matter and being taken advantage of, so to speak."
Facebook App Takes Teleflora's Delivery Complaints
Give Teleflora credit for setting up a Facebook app that uses a customer service software product from Parature. The app lets Facebook users submit a customer service request ticket without leaving the social site.
And the company - which involves a network of 15,000 independent florists - apparently hasn't dawdled when it comes to refunding disgruntled Valentine's Day patrons. In an email to ClickZ, a Teleflora rep explained the brand's reaction to the barrage of orders and subsequent delivery snafus.
Valentine's Day is the busiest day in the floral industry, and Monday, [February] 13th, was a huge order day, which might have impacted schedules of our member florists. We are currently assessing areas where we can improve for next year to avoid potential disappointment among our customers. Any customer who was not completely satisfied with their Valentine's Day order was issued a full refund, and will receive a 30% discount offer towards their next purchase."
Order Fulfillment Woes Aside, Sexy Spots Drive Flower Sales
Mabe, the PR specialist, said Teleflora should take the incident's lessons learned to heart on multiple operational and marketing levels.
"Word of advice to Teleflora, maybe think twice about running a Super Bowl spot unless your company is able to handle the huge surge of orders," she said. "As someone who finally received their roses the day after Valentine's Day, I've been underwhelmed by Teleflora's response via social media, as well as over the phone."
Meanwhile, featuring women celebrities - who have often sexily appeared via men's lifestyle magazines - in Teleflora's Super Bowl ads seems to be a winning ticket. According to the brand, a big game spot starring country singer Faith Hill helped spur a 59 percent year over year increase in Teleflora.com sales for Valentine's Day 2011.
Comparatively, octogenarian comedian Don Rickles anchored the brand's 2010 Super Bowl commercial.

"GREAT HOTEL"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 4, 2013
I would definitely go back again! It exceeded my expectations! It was spotlessly clean and the service was exceptional.
"Very nice hotel, nice staff, great breakfast!"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 2, 2013
I loved this hotel. It is a small, two story, old convent. The second floor balcony overlooks the quaint courtyard. The front desk staff were sweet and attentive. The room was big (room #1) with a window that looked over the courtyard. The bathroom was also big and had a tub, which is a rare treat in Antigua. The towels were old and dingy, but you could tell they were clean. The hotel is about a 5-7 minute walk to the main square and since it is that far away, it was very quiet! They play very soft, classical music throughout the property and it is really soothing. The fountain in the courtyard adds to the serene setting. The breakfast in the morning was delicious. I would definitely recommend this hotel for someone looking to relax a bit on their vacation. Also- I just want to note that I don't speak a lick of Spanish, and they don't speak a lick of English, but we got along well.
"Helpful friendly staff"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Dec 3, 2012
Very nice staff. 24 hour security and access. 4 blocks to central park. Very clean and maid service everyday.
"A bit of a walk to the center of town"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Nov 29, 2012
The tour group we were with stayed at this hotel in Antigua on the last night of the tour. We planned to extend our stay in that city after the rest of the group left so we had booked 2 extra nights at this hotel thru Hotels.com. We thought it just be easier staying there than moving to a different hotel closer to the center of town. The buildings and grounds of the Villa Colonial are very pretty, however the rooms need updating. The tub in the bathroom (Room 73) had a lot of rust spots. Everything worked, but the room just seemed outdated and a bit tired. No free bottles of water in the room. The hot water was turned off when we tried to take a bath but the reception desk did send someone promptly and the fix was just flipping a circuit breaker down a set of stairs. Free WiFi was available in the lobby and there was cable TV in the room. Our room was on the second floor and had a large porch extending across several rooms. Our room had 2 standard size beds.The main disadvantage of staying there was the distance from the central plaza and almost no shops or restaurants within several blocks. We ate one breakfast with the group in the restaurant and had dinner at the hotel one night. Service was excellent and the food tasty if a bit pricier than many in town restaurants. It is an easy walk into town, just realize that this hotel is not centrally located should you decide to stay there. We had been to Antigua 5 years before and stayed at a posada 2 blocks from the Plaza.
"Great hotel for an Antigua stay"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Nov 12, 2012
I give this hotel a great rating based on my expectations. Ok, it's not a five star hotel. But for what you pay for you can't get any better than this in Antigua. My city and mountain view were spectacular. The hotel and room have a cozy feel in this busy village. And what a village it is! When you walk out of the hotel you are just a block away from the town square. Everything is walkable. I didn't do the meals at the hotel, but there are so many nearby options. The only negative about the hotel is that the hot tub was lukewarm.

Plant Rhubarb
I am on a mission to encourage rhubarb, which I find an astonishing number of people have never tasted. You start a bed by digging a big hole, filling it with good mature, and planting rhubarb roots. Thereafter, you will have a supply of rhubarb every spring for fifty years and your bed will keep getting bigger. Don't eat the leaves; they are poisonous. The stems look like pink celery. Cut them into chunks, add a little water and sugar, and stew quietly for 10-15 minutes then use as you would applesauce. The color will be beautiful. Variously you can make pies with rhubarb, mix it with strawberries, or make all kinds of desserts. It's not a fruit but tastes like one. A rhubarb bed gives you something to depend on in life. BTW rhubarb right now in Chicago costs $7.99 lb: grow your own and beat the luxury market rap.
I have to say that being from Manitoba I find this thread cute! I don't know many people that DON'T have rhubarb around here. It's the most tenacious thing in my garden! I cut judiciously off it all summer to make desserts with....it's delicious and along with my strawberry plants makes for a great example of practically free!! :) Then in the fall I cut it all down, chop it up, pop it in some foodsaver bags and freeze it. Then I've got it all winter long to bake with. There's nothing tastier or faster than a rhubarb crisp or pie with some ice cream.
In my experience over three houses rhubarb will grow pretty much anywhere you pop it into the ground.... -
My best friend's mom grew it when I was a kid so I was exposed to it a lot. I remember she warned me the first time I tried it that it would make my teeth feel fuzzy - I think her exact words were, "It'll grow hair on your teeth."
I liked it back then but haven't had it much as an adult. Now you've got me thinking I should put in a little patch.
Ok. You've all convinced me to plant rhubarb this year. Is it too late or shall I wait for next year? I live in the San Francisco Bay Area where it's still cold and rainy right now.
I've only ever had rhubarb raw with a sprinkling of salt because that's how my boyfriend likes it. Blech! After that my curiosity about its other preparations waned even though it wasn't fair for me to judge rhubarb based on that one experience. .-
re: PaperMoon
I live in a wildly different geogrpahic climate but I suspect it may not be too late...
My husband pulled our rhubarb plant from our shed this morning! And low and behold - it's growing! Also saw some rhubarb crowns?(roots?) at home depot last night available for sale. Also - I was at the farmer's market this morning and there was not one stalk of rhubarb to be found yet.I think you do need to keep in mind that you really can't start to harvest rhubarb for about 3 yrs (we trimmed off 2 or 3 stalks off ours last year which was our first year and it was a measly contribution to the rhubarb strawberry crisp.)
I have rhubarb that I got from my ex-mother-in-law 30 years ago, neglected it for at least a decade...last year, we dug it up, and replanted it in new holes with manure and mushroom compost, and I have big, BEAUTIFUL stalks as I type.
It makes a great relish, and I'm hoping to try making some rhubarb soda next year!
I know some of the bigger seed companies offer all kinds and colors, check online.~Kizzle
Couldn't resist chiming in on Rhubarb! Totally underrepresented on fine-dining menus and at the family dinner table in my opinion!
Found this article in the NYT that gives a good overview of how to plant it and what to do with it, too: http://www.nytimes.com/1996/04/07/sty... for anyone interested in giving it a go.
I see the article says not to plant Rhubarb started from seed since it doesn't produce decent stalks but rather beg a nice start from a friend. But says to be sure it's rhubarb that will produce red/pink pies. And not the stuff that makes greenish pies. I believe the greenish stuff is the 'Victoria' strain that I often see advertised. 'MacDonald' is the preferred strain of many cooks/gardeners.
I also noted that moles do like rhubarb, so maybe that does account for your disappearing plants. If you sprinkle castor bean powder around that may deter them, although it can be toxic for other animals, I suppose.
Mine is almost ready to pick and I will be making a brioche crust with rhubarb filling this weekend. And NO strawberries with it, please! (-:
You know it's springtime when the talk turns to Rhubarb! I love your thread!
re: dumas
Thanks dumas for this article. I am a big Anne Raver fan. However, it was disheartening that most likely I purchased the dreaded green Victoria. So I just ordered a Valentine rhubarb plant from Miller's Nursery.
If I'm going to have it for a decade or more, I want a delicious variety!-
re: kenito799
To complicate things further, on a plant show yesterday they said that red rhubarb starts out red, then turns green as it matures. I don't know if that holds true for all red varieties. I do know that the popularity of Strawberry Rhubarb Pie is rooted ina misunderstanding. "Strawberry" in this case referred to a variety of rhubarb, not the berry, which is often not in season at the same time as rhubarb. Bakers who didn't know this combined the two fruits and voila, the most common rhubarb preparation was born.
re: dumas
I just wanted to report that I made our rhubarb pie with the Victoria in our garden and it was indeed quite greenish and not especially beautiful to look at (ugly, really) but I did buy some pink rhubarb and it made up quite nicely in another pie (to compare). I think I have to order a couple of the Valentine or MacDonald plants, although I googled and did not see that anything but Victora plants were readily available on the market.
re: dumas
Miller Nursery out of upstate NY sells Valentine Rhubarb -- I ordered and received bare root, along w/ 2 roses and 1 shrub.
millernurseries.comafter I planted the roses and shrub, I went in the house and checked my order sheet and said: oops! That hunk I threw in the compost bin I thought was packing material was actually my rhubarb root!
I just have to dig up a spot to plant it for its permanent home.
re: josey124
rhubarb does best in full sun and slightly acid soil. it should be carefree once established...stop harvesting it after early summer to give plant a chance to stock up for the winter...I planted three roots a couple weeks ago and I am thrilled to see them sprouting. I really hope they do well! I am jealous of my sister's access to rhubarb at her house!
Rhubarb is one plant that does better in northern latitudes. amyzan, maybe your climate is too mild?-
re: Lucymax
Full sun is better, but they will tolerate some shade during the day. You don't get a FULL harvest until three years, but you can trim judiciously the first and second years, certainly. The plants are slow to establish, from what I gather, but once established will produce and produce for ten years or so. Last year, I had over five pounds from one plant.
Only one of our five plants has survived to year four. I don't know what the heck happened, because I was careful not to harvest the first year, then to be judicious the second. At any rate, that one plant is thriving, and very well may produce enough for our family of two. But I am curious, those of you with experience growing rhubarb, do you have any ideas why four of the five plants didn't come up? To be clear, last year we had two left, the year before three, so this was a gradual process. I'm wondering if I don't have them in a good spot. We live on a hillside with southwestern exposure, and the garden is rocky, but we composted it quite well several years ago before we started, and have top dressed since. We do have deer and rabbits, but they seem not to bother the rhubarb.
Yea rhubarb! I endorse everyone having rhubarb -- carefree, lasts forever, and it's about the first fruit (think: strawberry rhubarb pie, or rhubarb compote for meat)
I had a huge plant where I used to live, and forgot about rhubarb, and then thought I should find someone to divide their plant for me, but I found plants at Home Depot yesterday so splurged for 6 bucks and will plant. So, rhubarb for me next year!
re: paulabear
www.rhubarbinfo.com lists mail-order/online sources for rhizomes, seed, and plants.
Also, see www.savor-the-rhubarb.com.
re: Apple
Yes - three years for the plant to mature enough to eat. Planrt in plenty of compost enriched soil. Top dress the plant in the Spring after the last frost. Pull, do not cut, the stalks from the bottom. And - this is very important. DO NOT EAT THE LEAVES - THEY'RE POISONOUS. But my strong advise is don't plant just 1 - plant 3 or more. They last decades in the garden and get bushier each year. I've had 4 rhubarb plants in my garden for 10 years now!! They are just emerging now.

Oscar TV Ratings: Better, But Not Good
The 2009 Academy Awards rebounded from last year's record low ratings, but not enough to prevent the show from ranking as the second lowest-rated ceremony ever among adults 18-49.
According to preliminary fast national data from Nielsen supplied by ABC, Sunday's Hugh Jackman-hosted ceremony notched a 12.1 rating in the key demographic group of adults 18-49 and attracted 36.3 million viewers overall. That's a gain of 4.3 million viewers and 13% in the demo from last year, when a combination of factors—including lack of audience circulation caused by the writers strike—depressed ratings for Oscar.
While ABC and the show's producers managed to reverse the erosion—no small feat in the modern TV era—Oscar's shine isn't as bright as it once was.
Among adults 18-49, Sunday's broadcast finished below all other Oscar telecasts since 1992 (not counting the 2008 nadir). In 2007, for example, the Academy Awards averaged a 14.1/33, which means 2009's show was down by double digits compared to the most recent non-strike year.
Sunday's broadcast drew significantly lower ratings than most Oscar broadcasts in the past decade.
Nontheless, Oscar is still the king of kudos. As ABC noted, the show's audience of 36.3 million viewers topped this year's Golden Globes on NBC by 21.4 million viewers and CBS's Grammy Awards by 17.3 million.
In addition, the Oscars rank as the most-watched entertainment broadcast of the season, surpassing Fox's "American Idol" premiere by nearly 6 million viewers.
"Jimmy Kimmel Live" also gained ground from last year's post-Oscar telecast, with a 16% bump in total viewers to 4.3 million. The show also hit a two-year high in adults 18-49, with a 38% rise to 2.2 million. "Kimmel's" post-Oscar special featured actor-director Mel Gibson and singer Robin Thicke, along with a segment with Tom Cruise.
ABC's half-hour pre-show, "Oscar's Red Carpet 2009," with Tim Gunn and Robin Roberts, drew 24.3 million viewers and a 7.2 rating in adults 18-49, according to the network. That was up by 2.8 million viewers and by 13% in 18-49 from last year.
The network's "Barbara Walters Special" drew an average audience of 11.6 million viewers and delivered a 3.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic.
On cable, more than 3.2 million viewers tuned in to E!'s "Live From the Red Carpet: The 2009 Academy Awards" on Sunday, up 12% from 2008 in households. Among E!'s core audience, women 18-49, viewership improved 8% from 2008.
The Academy's Oscar.com Web site saw major year-to-year increases Sunday, with unique visitors and page views up 57% and 87%, respectively. Users spent an average of 11.63 minutes on the site per visit, up 15% from last year.

Fight racial profiling at local level, lawmaker says ; U.S. guidelines get mixed review
[Chicago Final Edition]
Chicago Tribune
Chicago, Ill.
PHOTO State Sen. [Barack Obama] (D-Chicago) thinks the new Justice Department guidelines against racial profiling are "more symbol than substance." He says states need to act on the problem. States take action against racial profiling Since 1999, 24 state legislatures have passed laws to end or discourage racial profiling. The most common measures include requiring police departments to collect data about traffic stops, write policies against racial profiling and give officers special training about the practice. States with laws that attempt to address racial profiling WASH., ORE., CALIF., NEV., UTAH, MONT., TEXAS, COLO., OKLA., KAN., NEB., MINN., MO., LA., KY., TENN., FLA., N.C., MASS., CONN., R.I., N.J., MD., W.VA.

About This Data
ProPublica obtained prescribing data from Medicare's prescription drug benefit, known as Part D, under the Freedom of Information Act. The data for 2011 includes nearly 1.2 billion prescriptions written by 1.6 million doctors, nurses and other providers. This database lists about 364,000 of those providers who wrote 50 or more prescriptions for at least one drug that year. About three-fourths went to patients 65 and older; the rest were for disabled patients. Methodology »
- No comparisons are shown if 10 or fewer prescribers in the state share this specialty.
- The list of top drugs includes only those for which this provider wrote 50 or more prescriptions, but all prescriptions are counted in the summary totals at the top.
- The calculation of "Risky Drugs to Seniors" does not include drugs for which a provider wrote 11 or fewer prescriptions because Medicare redacted the information to protect patient privacy.
- Comparisons do not take into account the medical conditions of patients. Medications for certain conditions do not have generic alternatives, so patients would receive more expensive brand name drugs.
- This provider's address and specialty information was last updated on July 28, 2009.
Incorrect Info?
If you are a provider and you believe your address is incorrect, check the listing you created on the National Provider Identifier registry. If you change your listing, send a note to firstname.lastname@example.com and we will update your information. If you have other questions about this data, send a note to email@example.com.

How To Renew Your Mississippi Drivers License
Need to renew your Mississippi drivers license? We offer links to resources that will save you time and get you going in the right direction. Select from the options below to get started.
1: Get Started with Online Application Services
Online application assistance can simplify the process for many DMV related services, including: renewing your license, applying for a license, registering a vehicle, replacing your license, changing your address and more. In addition to the free forms and general instructions available from the DMV offices or websites, you will receive a comprehensive Easy Guide" containing information relevant to your service needs. Where possible, we will prepare your DMV forms and/or provide links to DMV online services.

Other benefits include an ongoing monthly newsletter and a quarterly magazine covering important updates that affect drivers, important safety tips and ways to save money on vehicle-related services.
2: By mail, if eligible (read below for instructions)
Some drivers prefer to handle the renewal process by mail, rather than taking advantage of assistance services, visiting the DPS in person, or via available online services. Service by mail is available with limitations. Read below for additional details or visit your local DPS.
3: Via a local DPS office
If you prefer to access DPS services in person or your specific needs require an in-person visit, most, if not all, driver license services can be handled at a physical DPS office location. Varying DPS offices sometimes supply different types of services so you will need to check before your visit to make sure the DPS closest to you provides the service you require. In addition, you can call to see if your local DPS allows you to make a personal appointment. Read more below to see if an in-person visit is either preferred or required.
Renewing Your Mississippi Drivers License
The state of Mississppi has an online renewal process. Visit the DPS website to begin rewewing your drivers license.
In Person
It is also possible to renew in person at your local DPS office. Be sure to take your license with you.
You'll also need to pay a $8 renewal fee. You may need to bring documents such as:
- Social Security card
- Proof of identity
- Proof of residence
- Birth certificate
You may also need other documents that the DPS will tell you about when you want to renew.
For a list of related services, see below:

How to pull the pump out depends on what type of pipe is hooked to it. If it's PVC the pipe will probably have to be cut and spiced back together to reinstall, unless there is already a coupling where it can be taken apart.
The check valve should be installed right above the pump.
I'm not sure what you mean about drilling through pavement? In a wood-framed house, the pipe exits above the sill plate, just underneath the first floor. Ideally it will exit on the downhill side of the house and then be piped at least 20 feet away from the foundation.
The area around the outside of the basin should be backfilled with crushed gravel. I also suggest wrapping the basin with landscaping cloth before you backfill, as this will act as a filter to keep dirt out of the basin.

Germantown cyclist critically injured in fall in woods
July 6, 2012 - 11:55 am
A mountain biker who fell while riding in the woods in Germantown is suffering from life-threatening injuries, Montgomery County fire officials say.
Fire spokesperson Beth Anne Nesselt says that first responders were called to the 16500 block of Germantown Road on reports that the cyclist had fallen and was injured. Nesselt said that trails in the area aren't clearly marked and that storm debris complicated rescue efforts.
The cyclist was removed from the area in a basket and flown by Maryland State Police to an area hospital with serious injuries.

A recent revision to Novitas Local Coverage Determination (LCD) L32576 set strict coverage limitations for services described by CPT® code 64450 - Injection, anesthetic agent; other peripheral nerve or branch. The resulting policy did not consider post-operative pain procedures that are reported with code 64450. We have received word that Novitas will release an update to this policy in the next few weeks. Denied claims may be submitted for reconsideration once that update is in effect. Review Novitas LCD postings. The Novitas Carrier Medical Director, Eileen Moynihan, M.D., has been very helpful in helping to resolve this issue.

Maple walnut bread served with a sharp goat cheese |
I love making my own home made bread. There is nothing like it. I love waking up in the morning, knowing that the bread maker has been working its magic all night and there's a fresh, warm, golden loaf waiting for me to slice into.
What are your favourite things to have on bread? I like:
- Cheese (duh)
- Jam
- Jam and cheese. Gross, I originally thought. My mum used to have it when I was little and I thought it looked disgusting. But then I recently had Laughing Cow and some sour cherry jam together on fresh bread and I have new respect for my mother. The woman is a genius.
- Olive oil and balsamic vinegar
- Butter. Every now and then ;) [tends to be in fancy restaurants!]
- Chutney
- Honey
- Avocado, salt, pepper and lemon juice
- Grilled slices of haloumi. Oh sorry, that's cheese, isn't it? I already said cheese ;)
- Baked beans. Hot. Not cold.
The bread I make the most is a lovely 9 grain and seed mix I get from Sainsbury's, and I usually add a bit of ground flaxseed in for good measure. But I do love mixing it up every now and then. I made a chilli, roasted pepper, spinach and cheese bread a few weeks back (delish!); I was well into a sourdough craze at the start of the summer (recipe coming soon!); and on the weekend I made maple and walnut bread to go with some fresh goat cheese I'd bought from the cheesemonger up the road. I was inspired after reading Nigel Slater's (my favourite cookery writer) latest book, Tender II: Fruit, which is an absolute work of art. His recipe had raisins and black treacle in it, I substituted maple syrup (maple and walnuts go well together in ice cream so I thought why not?) and the result was a gorgeous bread that only had a hint of sweetness, it was a very tasty, savoury bread with a lovely soft crumb, studded with crunchy walnuts. Even Tom, who claims to not like walnuts or maple syrup that much, broke giant pieces off the warm loaf as it cooled :)
Maple and walnut bread
Inspired by Nigel Slater
The perfect Sunday lunch - a loaf of this bread, one or two gorgeous cheeses, and a ripe apple or pear. Last meal material, definitely.
250g strong wholemeal bread flour
250g strong white bread flour
1 sachet dried yeast
2 tablespoons maple syrup (the proper Canadian stuff!)
A generous pinch of salt
350ml warm water
100g walnut pieces
I didn't put raisins in because Tom doesn't like them, but you could add 250g of them (or any dried fruit you like).
Now, I have a breadmaker, so I just put everything in there, hit "dough" and walk off like the lazy cow that I am :)
If you don't have a breadmaker, then put the flours in a large bowl, add the yeast, maple syrup and salt, then mix in the water with a wooden spoon (or you can put it in a food mixer and use a beater attachment). Keep mixing until it is all smooth. Turn the dough out on to a floured surface and knead it for a few minutes until it feels springy, and not too sticky. Flour (or cooking spray) the bowl and add the kneaded dough to it. Cover with clingfilm or a cloth and leave in a warm place for 45 minutes - 1 hour. By that time it should be doubled in size. Turn the dough out and press the walnuts (and dried fruit if using) into it, kneading it all in as you go. Put the dough in a tin of your choice (I shaped mine into a circle and put on to a large baking tray). Nigel Slater then recommends you leave it for another hour. I suppose you've guessed that I did not :)
Preheat the oven to 220 C. When the oven is hot, put the loaf in and bake for about 25 minutes until golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Leave it to cool for a while and then serve your favourite way. It will be a little soft when it's fresh - it is probably best a day later, or once it is completely cold. Also wonderful to use for cheese on toast/Welsh rabbit when it's a few days old.
God help me if I ever develop a gluten intolerance.
I would have taken better pictures if I'd known I was going to do a blog post about it. Ha ha. |
