The Bonsai Reborn As An Entrancing, Underwater Chia Pet
The bonsai is known for containing a century-long stillness. But underwater, it's a living, flowing creature.
A bonsai doesn't just grow, it's sculpted over decades. Shaping the tree is a work of patience--an art of restraint over time. And ultimately, it's a worthwhile investment: It's possible for bonsais to live for several hundred years. Many bonsais being groomed today will outlive all of us.
Water and Bonsai, by Azuma Makoto, reimagines the ancient tradition. It's ostensibly an underwater bonsai in a tank, with leaves that flow in crystal-clear water. But at the same time, the bonsai is a complete illusion. Because in reality, this little, submerged tree is actually the deadwood of Sabina chinesis--a popular plant for bonsai--wrapped in java moss--a Southeast Asian moss known for its popularity in freshwater aquariums.
In other words, Water and Bonsai is the most elegant fish-tank fixture you've ever seen--one of those sparkly treasure chests with several magnitudes more elegance.
"My initial idea was to express traditional Japanese bonsai in a contemporary approach. As you may know, elaborate forms of bonsai can't possibly be achieved overnight," Makoto tells Co.Design. "Time is graven on bonsai, its scenery and mood--by placing those elements in water, I wanted to visualize its speed at an accelerated pace, and to create a new expression with plants."
Makoto sums up the effect as "dynamism." The bubbles and subtle current of the water give his bonsai constant movement--visual life--while java moss grows so quickly that the viewer can see the tree take shape day to day, rather than month by month or year by year. It's sort of an immediate-gratification bonsai with all the austerity of the classic version, a piece of living art that keeps the viewer in the now rather than the past or future.
The sheer technical challenge involved will likely keep this project out of the hands of zealous aquarium aficionados--coaxing the java moss to grow on the wood was the most difficult part of the piece--and that's really too bad. While most of us don't have the patience for a classic bonsai, Makoto's underwater version seems just right for a culture built on Keurig coffee, lava lamps, and on-demand movies. We like to enjoy our experiences now.

"The Best Just Got Better...and for only $150!!"
5.0 starson by trevo123Pros: Highly improved noise cancellation. Better, richer, deeper sound than the QC2. Only $150 if you still have your QC2 through Bose as a trade-in/upgrade program!!!!!!! Get them, you will not regret them
Cons: Still wish it had a rechargeable pack like the QC3
Summary: They've taken the best headphones and made them THAT much better
- 9 replies to this review
Your Bose product has to be defective to qualify for the trade in, so they can repair and sell it again I guess. I got the Bose Sport in ear buds for like $30 when my IE2 were defective.
Hey guys!
I had the same problem like all of you. I called Bose 3 times and they said that they didn't have a program, but my local outlet store did when my mall store did not. Bose is really creeping me out with their odd customer service, I reccomend you call your nearest bose stores to find out if they have their upgrade program.
by the way, if they don't listen, tell them on the phone that there's some problem since that's the only way you can get the upgrade program. -
My daughter's 3 year old QC2s broke a couple of weeks ago while she was at college. She brought them home last weekend, and we took them to our local Bose store to see if they could be fixed. They offered to swap them for a pair of QC15s for $150, and of course we accepted. Great deal! I've been a Bose customer for many years and have a number of their products. I've found they do a great job of taking care of their customers.
My QC 2 were broken some time ago. The plastic part near the swivel point snapped. I inquired of Bose a year or so back asking if they had any repair service or spare part availability. At that time they offered to replace them if I mailed them back...for $150.00. I declined at that time and they sat in my closet for the past year or so. This weekend I decided to drive to a nearby Bose store. I showed the broken headphones and asked the same question as to repair. The rep didn't hesitate and opened up a loose leaf binder with a list of prices for returns of defective sets. He said I could purchase QC 2's for $100, or I could upgrade to the new QC 15 for $150. I'm happy to say I purchased the QC 15's after testing both of them for a while. The 15's are noticably better at cancelling lower frequency noise.
I've used my QC 2 while travelling by air, car and believe it or not, while mowing the lawn. I've been happy with them, and I believe the 15's will be even better. -
what trade in / upgrade program??? i just called them and they said there is not such program
My local Bose Store told me about the trade in program! Did it on the spot
I have upgraded QC headphones in the past through Bose technical support. The ones that you want to trade in may have to be "broken" to qualify for the upgrade.
I had an online coversation with Bose today to find out more about the "trade in program" They said they have no such program in effect at this time.
How did you find out about the upgrade? I have a Bose 2 that I got from Bose, but heard nothing about this.

Have you ever dreamed of becoming an astronaut? Now you can come closer to making your dream a reality from August 5–9, 9 a.m.–12 p.m. Learn what space flight is like, create and launch your own rockets, experience the teamwork required for a successful flight and put your new knowledge to the test in two different simulated space missions to the Moon and Mars!
The Fleet runs weekly, half-day summer camps in 2013 from June 24 to August 23. The majority of our camps are geared for kids in Grades 1–2 and Grades 3–4, but we also offer camps for Pre-K and Grades 5–8 on selected weeks. The camps are designed to be fun, educational and hands-on and to incorporate the Fleet's exhibit galleries.
To further enhance the summer camp experience and as a convenience to you, many Balboa Park institutions—including the Fleet—coordinate their half-day summer camps so kids can spend a full day in the park. Staff members at participating institutions escort children from one camp to another during a supervised lunch hour. This means that a child can be dropped off at a morning camp at the Fleet and picked up from an afternoon camp at a different venue.

#35: Bigger Plans December 29th, 2008
Download mp3 (4.17 MB) (or subscribe)
Hella Gems is a music weblog wherein each contributor posts new original music on a daily rotating schedule. There are twelve contributors, which means that if you are one of them, you get to write, record, and publish a song every twelve days. Now, I've been writing songs for six years or so, and in that time I've come up with, oh, ten or twelve that I think are good. And, y' know, I'm happy about those. But at the rate that they've been going, a Hella Gems contributor would have written 180 songs. How dare I call myself a songwriter in the face of such prolificacy? These people put me to shame. Yesterday morning, though, I was given the opportunity to redeem myself: our good friend E. Robert Frank called up Alex and me and asked if we wanted to help him record an as-yet-unwritten song which was due on Hella Gems that night. "It's sort of like Shoebox Full of Tapes," Rob said, "except we update it more often." Oh, snap!
I said we'd be happy to help, on the condition that if we liked what we came up with, I could also post it here on SFoT, and Rob readily agreed. (Of course, I was bluffing. I would be elated to rock out with Rob at any time without precondition.) So, around 7 p.m. last night, he showed up with a car full of instruments, and we brought them on in, set up, and futzed around for quite a while. To give you an idea of what a class act we were at that point in the evening, our idea of a "good" keyboard part was one that could be played with the backs of one's fists while simultaneously flipping the bird at one's bandmates and (notional) audience. Keepin' it classy, us. Eventually, and without having actually recorded anything, we decided to go get Chinese food. At a restaurant a mile and a half away. On foot. This was all very enjoyable, of course, but by the time we got home again at 10 p.m., we had still made exactly no progress on our song, which had to be done by midnight Pacific time, which was now five hours away.
But then Alex picked up Rob's acoustic guitar and started alternately playing E minor and D chords while Rob and I noodled on the drums and keyboard. And then I discovered that the pitch bend on Rob's keyboard made a sound like a high-tech outer-space pedal steel, and somehow, from there, the whole thing began to come together. I spent about twenty minutes in the corner with a notebook (this is 180 degrees to how I usually operate when I write lyrics, and I don't love what I was able to come up with in twenty minutes, but it had to be good enough, so here it is), and we played and played and sang and sang and mixed and mixed and with an hour to go before the deadline, we had finished the whole thing. Rob has already written about the process at length over on the Hella Gems blog, so I refer you to his post for most of the details.
I know I've missed a few months of updates this fall, and I'll probably be calling an official hiatus pretty soon here, now that I'm in school and have less time to devote to things that are not directly related to getting my Ph.D. But I wanted to leave SFoT with something I was proud of, and here it is. If you've been listening to SFoT in 2008, thank you!

Big Meadow Family Campground
[ 9/10 ]
This is a breath of fresh air in this little town. The campground is well kept and very clean. The staff were very friendly and willing to answer questions. The only negative comment would be the lack of fire rings and a swimming pool. But, the sites are very level and wide and make up for these negatives. We have stayed in Townsend numerous times and have always had difficulty finding a park that was big rig friendly. I would highly recommend staying here.

Cloud computing and mobile technology are two of the top technologies to watch in education, according to this year's K-12 Horizon Report, an annual publication from the New Media Consortium that highlights developing trends in ed tech. And this year, the report suggests, they could go mainstream.
NMC released the findings in advance of the report's official publication, slated for June, in a webinar hosted in part by CEO Larry Johnson.
For the report, more than forty education experts from around the globe weighed in on dozens of the biggest technology-related trends and topics on a dedicated wiki space, and chose the six most important to showcase:
The list is something of a departure from last year, when cloud computing was not even featured, having been assumed to be significantly mainstream (defined as having a presence in at least 20 percent of classrooms). This year, familiar topics like game-based learning and augmented reality also didn't make the cut, dropped in favor of trends like open content and learning analytics, which were not featured in last year's report.
"While the list has changed in 2013, it doesn't mean that game based learning is not important anymore, it's just not as much in the foreground as open content and learning analytics," Johnson clarified during the webinar. "If you look at what people are looking at in the next year... it is all about making learning more personal. It's about putting the learning where people are."
Johnson also used the webinar to highlight another set of key trends identified by NMC's experts that are helping to drive technology adoption in the classroom. For that list, the experts agreed that:
Additional information about the Horizon Report, including access to last year's report and its international counterparts, is available online.

For the a little of two weeks now, trade rumors surrounding Philadelphia Phillies veteran outfielder Shane Victorino have been floating around. The veteran outfielder is having a down year in Philly, and has seemed very unhappy at times about his situation with the club.
The odds of Victorino moving before the MLB trade deadline seem likely, however, it may not happen unless the Philles drop their asking price for the struggling 31-year-old, says Rob Biertempfel, Pittsburgh Pirates beat writer for the Pittsburgh Tribune.
In all, it does seem the Pirates, who currently sit just a 1/2-game back of the top of the National League Central Division standings, are the team most interested in Victorino, who would benefit from a change of scenery.

[I disagree with a previous reviewer] I mounted 3 gretsch renown maple toms on a gilbralter rack and they are solid. Positioning was no problem and they stay put. The ball gives my precise placing of my toms. I couldn't be any happier with them. They do what they clam and do it well.
Comments about Gibraltar Ball Arm L-Rod Mount:
This mount sucks on so many levels. The tube isn't long enough to get your tom where you want it and that p.o.s. ball doesn't allow you to position it where you

WHAT!?!?!?! They cannot change a classic!!! What are they thinking?!?! For shame!
An article in USA Today outlines The Disney Company's plans to replace Christopher Robin with a "Tomboyish 6 year old girl"
Read the whole article here...
With the success of the Winnie the Pooh franchise, why on earth would they want to do this?
Not to mention that boy friendly characters and stories at Disney are few and far between. Little girls already love Pooh and Friends, why must they change the basics of this 80 year old classic piece of literature.
One of the best things about Winnie the Pooh is that a Grandmother, Mother and child can all sit down together and know the characters of this age old tale and its off spring. Now, as in so much of the other programming children watch, they will have to explain the show to the adults, or worse yet, the adults will have a "reason" to bow out of watching along with the children.
Nancy Kanter of the Disney Channel is quoted as saying "We hope people will fall for this new tomboyish girl. The last thing we want to be is the ones who brought the franchise down."
Good Luck with that.
Sad. Very sad.

That is going to be a disaster. Like you said, they have so many stories that have girls in the main position (not that I'm complaining, as one of the reasons I love Anime so much is because they always have strong female leads), but an 80 year old classic story? Don't mess with it....
Flying is the simple act of throwing yourself at the ground and missing.

Okay, who wants to author the petition?
As a lover of all things Winnie, and I speak for my son and two daughters as well here-WHY!!!! WHY!!!! Is this supposed to be politically correct? An androgynous girl-are they still gonna call her "Chris"?? I am not amused at all by this at all!!!!
I am in need of some Disney magic!!
I get home from work and find the Disney Insider in my email inbox, there I find this article "Celebrating 80 Years of Adventures with Winnie the Pooh" .
Can you believe they have the nerve to try and celebrate what they are trying to bring down? All of those memories and history of the Disney-Milne connection being tossed out like the daily trash.

This just in...apparently Mickey Mouse is going to be replaced by a new kind of animal. The Disney Company is hoping that people will like this new animal, because they don't want to be the ones to ruin the company.
***The above story is for example purposes only as to what might happen if this horrible trend continues***
Why on earth would they change a classic like that?
Por favor mantanganse alijado de las puertas.
That really doesnt make sence, and yea i think it was for Milne's son because they were the son's toys. They should leave it as it is. They could add a character as his friend maybe and make it still but then again that would be weird too bc the characters are his and they only are alive because he is friends w/ them (kinda like puff the magic dragon and no its not about drugs)
They have to keep it as it is. Changing classics that still draw people of all ages and those that have already kown it is just wrong.
Dumbest thing I've ever heard of. Seriously dragging into main street and shooting with maybe not bullets but paintballs or something comes to mind.

After years of showering U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin with stellar ratings and campaign endorsements, the National Rifle Association targeted the West Virginia Democrat with a TV ad launched Wednesday over his continuing push for broader gun buyer background checks.
The new ad urges viewers to phone Manchin's office and tell him "to honor his commitment to the 2nd Amendment." It alleges Manchin "is working" with President Barack Obama, who is deeply unpopular in West Virginia, and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a vocal advocate of gun control laws.
Bloomberg is stepping up his gun control campaign by asking donors not to support Democratic senators who opposed a bill to expand background checks on gun buyers, while a mayors' group he co-founded is embarking on a national bus tour to rally for efforts to curb gun violence.
In a letter, Bloomberg asked New York City donors not to support Democratic senators who opposed a bill to expand background checks, which helped lead to the legislation's defeat in April. The letter names Sens. Mark Pryor of Arkansas, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota, Max Baucus of Montana and Mark Begich of Alaska.
"I am writing to ask you: The next time these four senators want you to support them with donations to their campaigns, tell them you cannot," Bloomberg wrote to about 1,100 New York City residents who had contributed to the four senators. "Until they show they will stand up for the American people and not the gun lobby, tell them you cannot support their candidacy."
Manchin co-sponsored the background check measure with Sen. Patrick Toomey, R-Pa. It would apply to buyers in commercial settings such as gun shows and online but exempt non-commercial transactions such as sales between friends and relatives.
It failed to advance on an April vote, but Manchin has since sought additional support for the measure while remaining open to revising its provisions to ease concerns of gun rights backers.
Eight relatives of the Newtown shooting victims met with lawmakers in Washington, D.C., including Manchin, on Wednesday.
Asked about Bloomberg's letter, Manchin said he would prefer to see something "in more of an informational, educational and supportive role" to help build support in states with strong gun cultures.
"I know they're doing what they think is the right thing to do," Manchin told reporters in his office. "We just need more support in educating the public about the virtues of this bill."

I felt this product's fit was true to size
I felt this product's width was true to width
Comfortable right out of the box. I am very pleased with these American Made boots which arrived just in time for my house painting after a prior pair of imported work shoes literally disintegrated
Review by: Thomas, Virginia, 6/22/2010
The first time I put these boots on to use they felt like i had been wearing them for a year. After a full day of tree cutting and trimming there was absolutely no discomfort. The are just perfect.That day using a power pole saw I cut a five inch branch from a cedar tree and instead of dropping down it rotated and came down butt-end first right on top of my arch. Because of the metatarsal shield I felt the shock of it hitting but no impact or pain. Not even a bruise but it did scratch the leather. AND they are UNION made in the US. Worth every penny.

Nice boot well made.
Review by: Joe, Cleveland OH, 11/11/2008
Excellent comfort right out of the box. So far it's been perfect. Will have some long weeks ahead before the end of the year hoping these boots will pass that test. As of now I think they will.

This ring is not for the faint of heart. I purchased the amethyst: colour is beautiful, two variations of purple and has a nice sparkle. It is very comfortable to wear. It can transition from the boardroom to an evening on the town without any problem. Great value for the price.

German Company's Giant Cookie Goes Missing
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. When the huge golden cookie that stood for 100 years outside the headquarters of a big German cookie maker went missing, the company put up a reward. Then the kidnapper sent a ransom note. I have the biscuit, it said with text cut from magazines. It demanded the company donate cookies to children in a local hospital, and the reward to an animal shelter. Signed: Cookie Monster. Cute. But so far the bakery has not bitten. It's MORNING EDITION.

Case packer's precision control a function of its gearboxes
Recently, Douglas began specifying a servo gearbox from Lenze to perform the task of changing the servo motor's rotary motion to linear motion, which permits actuation on the machine. Depending on the application, an Axiom machine could have on it as many as 15 motor/gear box pairs. The gearboxes are made with custom input adaptors made specifically for Douglas, says Douglas engineer Annamalai Pugalumperumal.
"We looked at Lenze's standard offering of gearboxes, but they didn't really fit right," says Pugalumperumal. "It looked odd, for one thing, but it was more than a matter of looks. The input coupling part was sticking outside of the gearbox itself. So in mounting it against the conveyor side frame, the gearbox would have been protruding way outside. Together with Lenze, we designed the input coupling really flush with the gearbox."
"High efficiency and low backlash is what these gearboxes offer," says Steve Greene of Lenze. "When you want to stop an action, there can be some play in the output shaft of the gear box. Not so with these gearboxes. They have excellent stopping accuracy."
Elsewhere on the Axiom machine, four-corner case control squares the leading and trailing walls of the case just prior to case sealing and compression. Here again, servo control of the squaring guarantees precision.
Mary Ellen Kerber, marketing services manager at Douglas, points out that as this design work behind the special Lenze gearbox moved forward, Lenze did a good job of sharing technical data along the way. "When we implemented the change to Lenze gearboxes, there were issues of course, but that's to be expected," says Kerber. "Lenze stepped up and worked hard to make sure necessary changes were made."
Pugalumperumal adds that the communications protocol on the Axiom machine is Ethernet IP. "The whole U.S. market on the packaging side is shifting to Ethernet IP," says Pugalumberumal. "The main reason is that once I assign an Ethernet IP address I can pretty much hook it up to my device and I can communicate to it right away without needing a special adaptor or software package."

Train hits semi along State Road 25, southeast of Logansport, on Monday. (Indiana State Police photo) (December 17, 2012) |
LOGANSPORT, Ind. (AP) — A freight train has derailed in north central Indiana after striking the trailer of a truck stopped on the tracks.
The engines of the Norfolk Southern train derailed Monday morning along Indiana 25 south of Logansport, about 70 miles north of Indianapolis.
Cass County Sheriff Randy Pryor tells the Pharos-Tribune the train dragged the trailer about 100 feet, and the four engine cars derailed about 2,000 feet from an intersection along the highway.
Forty-seven-year-old truck driver David Jones of Indianapolis told investigators he didn't see the train coming.
There were no major injuries.
The Journal and Courier reports the highway would remain closed north of Delphi until a bent rail was repaired.

Barnacle is a gadget mount that can attach your gadget to any slick surface. With two symmetrical suction cups placed at a 45-degree angle from each other, Barnacle can be used on a desk, on a car windshield, or on any slick surface. Barnacle comes in six colors; orange, white, black, magenta, blue, and green. iLoveHandles began when two friends who met in architecture grad school " one with a background in graphic design and business, and the other with a background in product design " started collaborating on projects that were clever, fun, and useful. We never meant to be another iPhone accessories company. Sorry about that. We realize most Apple accessories lack creativity and personality " they lack soul. We didn't want to make more cases for a phone that doesn't need a case. We didn't want to make more over-designed, over-branded, overdone stuff to piggyback on Apple's success. Not to sound like grumps, but it's how we feel. The time and thought Apple invests in its products is obvious. We all share a love of Apple products. After Rock Band (the first watch band designed for iPand nano, by the way), we thought it was time someone created accessories that were equally lovable.

This year the faculty will participate in the formal procession. Twenty seniors will be awarded the B.S. in Ed. degree. There will also be thirty-two Advanced Diploma graduates, thirty-four First Grade Certificate graduates, and one graduate from the Two-Year course in commerce. In addition to the on-campus graduates, there will be a number of summer school students who will be finishing this summer in the procession. P. E. Tyrrell, Dean and Registrar, expects the total number of graduates to reach 110. Dr. E. E. Erber is chairman of the commencement committee. College Players Present Comedy J. Sullivan Stars in 'Ring Round the Moon' Jerry Sullivan, carrying the two roles of Hugo and Frederick, twin brothers, in "Ring Round the Moon," was the headliner in the April 18 production of the Anouilh play translated from the French by Christopher Fry. Sullivan gave an excellent performance in every way. The play was repeated on April 19. Colleen Ormseth also gave an excellent performance as Isabelle; in fact, it was difficult to see how the performances of most of the actors could have been improved. Others in the cast were: Martha Schrantz, as Diana; Robert King, as Patrice Bombelles; Marlene Nace, as Madame Desmortes; Harold Kirstein, as Romainville; Shirley Klueber, as Isabelle's mother; Leroy Aasby, as Joshua, the butler; Jean Peterson, as Capulet; and Robert Nelles, as Messerschmann. The plot of the play follows somewhat that of Shakespeare's "Comedy of Errors" in that male twins are involved; however, its crises are so slight that at times the audience had difficuty in ascertaining just what the thread of the story was. The work of the actors was excellent; the play itself is a little more sophisticated than plays Madison audiences are accustomed to except in moving pictures. The director was Robert F. Gee; Ed Tyc and Mr. Gee constructed the sets; and the wheelchair used was lent for the occasion by the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Beta Phi Chi Initiates Thirteen students became members of Beta Phi Chi on April 4 at a meeting in West Wing. Chosen on the recommendation of the instructors in, English composition, they were given rigid tests by members of the organization before being asked to sign the constitution of the organization as members. Directing these tests were Bill McCoy, Susan Vickmark, Charles Tolk and the other members of the club aided them. New members of the group are (1. to r.), Marcia Sandro, Big Stone City; Carol Thompson, Colman; Ed Bergerson, Volga; Ivadell Nebelsick, Alexandria; Marvin Olson, Nunda; Ardell Carlson, Hayti; Dennis Shaw, Canova; Myrna Swanson, Wessington Springs; Joyce Nelson, Beresford; Jim Wilde, Madison; Enid Lindblom, Canova; Kenneth Thurow, Ramona; and Zana Ellison, Madison. 'Eastern' Will Be Entered in Annual SDCPA Contest The Eastern will be entered in the annual competition of state college newspapers this year, according to Bob Weld, president of Beta Phi Chi. Through arrangements made by Sam Dicks, secretary-treasurer of the South Dakota Collegiate Press Association and a student at Dakota Wesleyan University, the papers entered will be judged by the Associated Collegiate Press (University of Minnesota). The annual convention will be held at Dakota Wesleyan on Saturday, May 7. The campus journalists expect to send representatives, but their names had not definitely been chosen at press time. Miss George Plans to Tour British Isles This Summer Miss Mary Bell George, dean of women, plans to visit spots of literary and historical interest in England, Ireland, and Scotland during the coming summer. She plans to fly to Europe via Pan-American World Airlines in August and to spend about ten days in London, where she will stay at the Regent Palace Hotel Piccadilly Circus. She plans to see the London Tower and all of the important sights in London and to go to Windsor Castle by taking a boat on the Thames. She will also visit the Lake Country of northwest England made famous by Wordsworth and Coleridge. In Scotland she will visit Edinburgh, the home of her ancestors, and Glasgow. In the latter place she will visit Mrs. Jeanie Gracie Deans, with whom she has been corresponding for some time after having become an acquaintance of hers through Mrs. Dean's son, who was stationed here during World War II. -o- Christian Union To Elect President A president for 1955-56 will be elected at the next meeting of Christian Union, on April 28. The Reverend Mr. Osborne led a discussion on "Christ Is Urgent On the Campus," the Religious Emphasis Week Theme, at the last meeting, and Lois Otten gave a reading. Dennis Shaw and Shirley Siegfried were in charge of the program. Plans were made for a joint picnic with Wesley Fellowship in May. MONEY AS WELL AS ACHES RESULT OF "SLAVE PROJECT By Carol Everson "Oh, my aching back," was the exclamation of the dormitory girls who participated in "the slave project " as a means of earning money for the East Hall scholarship. Now that the project is completed, however, the girls seem to move a little more quickly. Stiff backs were not the only result of this project, either. The bathtubs got an unusually large amount of use, the handlotion bottles were emptied of their contents, and, of all things, the daily naps were even neglected. Complaints were heard of freshmen being unable to write themes because of blisters, and the Merle Norman facials were also neglected a time or two. Psychologists say that one has to be motivated in order to act. The girls were motivated all right. Second and third floor girls competed against one another. The girls on third floor made $73.40, and the second floor girls made $34.40, a total of $107.80. Shirley Salmonson was third floor captain and Ardell Carlson second floor captain. Despite the many hours of labor and lack of sleep, the girls found that the project was a lot of fun; and, who knows? someone may have even lost a pound or two! Most of the work time was spent raking lawns (their blisters and muddy shoes will prove that); however, a few hours were spent washing cars, washing windows, and cleaning houses. In spite of the hard work put in, there was only one serious casulty. Someone's dog bit Dorothy Ingalls ! Wesley Group Plans To Attend Conference Plans are being made for members of Wesley Fellowship to attend the Spring Conference at Lake Poinsett April 29 - May 1. At the April 24th meeting Sen. LeRoy Ericsson spoke on the last legislative session and reports were given on the Methodist seminar held in Pierre. Those who attended the latter meeting were Enid Lindblom, Myrna Swanson, and Carol Thompson. Teaching Contracts Now Being Offered Several students have signed contracts for teaching positions for next year. Still others have offers but have not yet accepted them. Harlan Stensaas will teach English in the Presho High School. Mrs. Stensaas will teach in the grades in the same school. StanLee Sprague will teach Commerce in Chester. Dawn Dyer will have the first and second grades in White. Delores Stehr will teach the first grade and Marland Erickson the eighth grade in Howard. Elinor Christensen and Mardelle Ekren will teach the second and third grades, respectively, in Castlewood. LaDonna Silkenson will teach the second grade in Arlington. Mrs. Doris Clarke will teach music in Carthage High School, where her husband will also be employed as coach. Marilyn Alendal will teach the first grade at Canton, where Elsie Winther has also accepted a position. Donald Ellis has accepted a seventh and eigth grade position in the Brandt schools. Bill McCoy Chosen President 1955-56 Student Body Bill McCoy, Madison, was elected Student Body president for 1955-56 in last week's poll, the results, of which were announced at the Election Party held April 13 in the Gymnasium. In his new position McCoy will preside over the Student Senate. McCoy is now serving as vice- president of the Student Senate and as president of the Varsity Club and the Catholic College Club. He is a member of Beta Phi Chi and the Social Committee, and is also advertising manager for The Eastern and The Trojan. His opponent in the race was Dwayne Pecks, Madison. Bob King, Rutland, was chosen vice-president, Harold Kirstein and Bob Whealy, Madison, being the other contestants for the office. Margaret Stoehr, Montrose, was elected secretary, the other candidates for the office being Marcia Sandro, Big Stone City; and Shirley Siegfried, Clear Lake. Myrna Swanson, Wessington Springs, was chosen councilwoman. Ivadell Nebelsick, Alexandria, was the other nominee for this office. Dennis Shaw, Canova, won the office of councilman, the opposition being Tom McCoy, Madison, and Wayne Linngren, Strandburg. Carol Everson, Bryant, defeated Jack Conway, Oldham, and Jim Wilde, Madison, for the position of council member-at-large. New Procedure Followed Candidates for Student Senate offices were selected this year by petition for the first time. This new procedure was outlined in the revised constitution which was accepted by the 1953-54 student body. Previously, the candidates for the various offices were selected by the Student Senate. In order for a student to be eligible for a Student .Senate office, he must have a cumulative honor point-hour ratio of not less than one. A sophomore must have completed two quarters of residence work at GBSTC, and a junior and senior must have completed three quarters of residence work here. No member of the senior graduating class is. eligible for office. The newly elected officers will sit in with the present Senate in the remaining sessions of the year, to observe the method of handling business and will take office at the beginning of the fall term, 1955. Amendment Carries An amendment to the old constitution was also accepted. It stated: "Whereas the Student Body President is to devote his time and efforts to the affairs of the Student Body, he therefore may decline offices, jobs, and committee work within any organization of which he is a member." Queen Candidates Nameid Four girls were chosen as candidates for the Spring Prom Queen in the election. They are: Ivadell Nebelsick; Shirley Salmonson, Estelline; Margaret Stoehr; and Sally Paarker, Madison. The queen will be chosen at a later date. Winners of the Popularity Contest conducted in connection with the election were announced by Jack Funston, present Student Body President, and each was presented with a red rose by Pres. V. A. Lowry. Winners of this contest were: Most representative man, Bill Mc- (Page 4, please)

[JURIST] The Russian Supreme Court [official website, in Russian] on Thursday ruled that the case of murdered journalist Anna Politkovskaya [BBC obituary; JURIST news archive] should be returned to prosecutors for further investigation. The court overturned [RIA Novosti report] a lower court decision [JURIST report] not to combine the case against Sergei Khadzhikurbanov, Dzhabrail Makhmudov, and Ibragim Makhmudov with an investigation against other suspects, including Rustam Makhmudov, the brother of Dzhabrail and Ibragim, who is thought to be in hiding under an alias. Reporters Without Borders [advocacy website] welcomed the court's decision, saying [press release] it offers "a degree of hope." Also Thursday, the Supreme Court upheld [RIA Novosti report] its decision to annul the acquittal of the three suspects. Their lawyer said he plans an appeal to the European Court of Human Rights [official website]. The Supreme Court ordered the retrial [JURIST report] of the three suspects in June after prosecutors argued the trial judge made procedural errors. Khadzhikurbanov, Dzhabrail Makhmudov, and Ibragim Makhmudov were acquitted [JURIST report] in February after a jury found that the evidence against the three was not enough [RIA Novosti report] to support convictions. A week later, prosecutors appealed the acquittals [JURIST report]. In November 2008, the Russian Prosecutor General's Office [official website, in Russian] requested a new judge [JURIST report], claiming that Moscow Military District Court judge Yevgeny Zubov had violated procedural rules. Zubov refused to recuse himself [JURIST report] from the trial. Khadzhikurbanov, Dzhabrail Makhmudov, and Ibragim Makhmudov were arrested [JURIST report] in August 2007 in connection with Politkovskaya's 2006 slaying.
[JURIST] The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) [official website] made a number of missteps that could have uncovered the fraud committed by Bernard Madoff [JURIST news archive] at an earlier date, according to an inspector general's report [text, PDF] released Wednesday. The report indicated that between 1992 and 2008, six complaints were lodged with the SEC concerning Madoff's hedge fund operation. One of the complaints [text], submitted in 2005 by independent fraud investigator Harry Markopolos, raised doubts as to the level of return seen with Madoff's fund. The inspector general's report concluded:
As the foregoing demonstrates, despite numerous credible and detailed complaints, the SEC never properly examined or investigated Madoff's trading and never took the necessary, but basic, steps to determine if Madoff was operating a Ponzi scheme. Had these efforts been made with appropriate follow-up at any time beginning in June of 1992 until December 2008, the SEC could have uncovered the Ponzi scheme well before Madoff confessed.
[JURIST] The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal [official website] ruled [decision, PDF] Wednesday that Canada's Internet Hate Speech law unconstitutionally violates the right to free expression. The law, section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act [text], proscribed individuals or groups from:
communicat[ing] telephonically or to cause to be so communicated, repeatedly, in whole or in part by means of the facilities of a telecommunication undertaking within the legislative authority of Parliament, any matter that is likely to expose a person or persons to hatred or contempt by reason of the fact that that person or those persons are identifiable on the basis of a prohibited ground of discrimination.
[JURIST] Lawyers for alleged al Qaeda media director Ali Hamza Ahmad Suliman al Bahlul [DOD materials; JURIST news archive] on Tuesday appealed [brief, PDF] his conviction and life sentence [JURIST reports] for conspiring with al Qaeda, soliciting murder, and providing material support for terrorism. His Pentagon-appointed defense lawyers argued that his constitutional rights were violated because a supposed al Qaeda recruitment film he released is protected speech under the First Amendment. His lawyers argued:
The First Amendment ... bars the prosecution of political argument except in a few narrow circumstances, such as incitement. Here, no reasonable trier of fact could find that State of the Ummah rises to the level of incitement ... The record instead shows that State of the Ummah is exactly what the government contended it was a political argument that provoked the very kind of debate and dissent that warrants its protection per se under the First Amendment. Additionally, it was incumbent upon the military judge to instruct the members on what speech is and is not criminal. This he did not do and the government exploited this fact to put Mr. al Bahlul's political beliefs on trial.
[JURIST] Chilean judge Manuel Valderrama disclosed on Wednesday a report on the extent and sources of the secret fortune of former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] that amounts to $25,978,602 in accounts held outside of Chile, of which $20,199,753 is suspected to to have been embezzled from official funds. The funds were accumulated [Los Tiempos report, in Spanish] over the period from 1973 to 2004, when a Senate sub-committee investigation uncovered the accounts [JURIST report]. On Tuesday, retired general Sergio Moreno Saravia was detained in connection with the embezzlement case on an order [press release, in Spanish] from Valderrama. During the Pinochet regime, Saravia exercised discretion over funds that belonged to the presidency and chief army command and would have been an accomplice to transfer the funds outside of the country. Also on Tuesday, Judge Victor Montiglio ordered the arrests [BBC report] of 129 suspects in connection with Pinochet-era "Dirty War" human rights violations on charges of aggravated kidnapping and homicide. Of the 129 former secret police agents, 25 have already been detained, and more than half of them have never faced charges. All 129 allegedly played a role in detaining and then guarding enforced disappearance victims. The orders were issued in connection with investigations on three separate "Dirty War" operations: Operation Condor, Operation Colombo [JURIST news archives], and the Calle Conferencia case. Montiglio had previously brought charges [JURIST report] against Pinochet for his role in Operacion Colombo.In April, Montiglio charged [JURIST report] three former senior Pinochet-era military officers as accomplices for their role in the October 1973 killings of 14 leftist political opponents as part of the so-called "Caravan of Death" [BBC backgrounder]. Pinochet's youngest son, former secretary, and estate executor have previously been indicted [JURIST report] for their actions around Pinochet's finances for maliciously making false or incomplete tax declarations. In January 2006, Pinochet's wife, four of five children, daughter-in-law, and former secretary and lawyer were indicted, but a year later the Santiago Court of Appeals dropped most of the charges [JURIST reports]. In October 2007, 23 family members and former associates, including Pinochet's wife, five children, former secretary, and three retired army generals, were indicted [JURIST report] on corruption charges for aiding Pinochet in the "misuse of fiscal funds" during his regime. The following month, the Supreme Court of Chile upheld an appeals court decision to drop the charges [JURIST reports] because the accused were not government employees at the time and thus could not be charged with embezzling government funds.
[JURIST] The US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] announced [press release] Wednesday that pharmaceutical company Pfizer [corporate website] and its subsidiary have settled a health care fraud suit [fact sheet] for a record $2.3 billion. The DOJ brought a felony claim against Pfizer under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act [materials] alleging that the drug Bextra was misbranded and promoted for "off-label" uses with the intent to defraud or mislead. Subsidiary Pharmacia & Upjohn Company pleaded guilty to the charges and agreed to pay a $1.195 billion fine, the largest criminal fine ever imposed in the US. Pfizer has also agreed to pay $1 billion to settle civil claims brought under the False Claims Act [text] alleging that it illegally promoted the drugs Bextra, Geodon, Zyvox and Lyrica, caused false claims to be submitted to health care programs, and paid kickbacks to health care providers. The settlement is the largest civil fraud settlement against a pharmaceutical company in US history. US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) [official website] Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said that the settlement will secure the future of Medicare, Medicaid, and other government insurance programs. Pfizer denied all of the civil allegations [press release] except those that involve the improper promotion of Zyvox. Additionally, the pharmaceutical company entered into an agreement with the HHS that sets new policies and requires them to continue the maintenance of a compliance program for five years. At a press conference [prepared remarks] Wednesday, Associate Attorney General Tom Perrelli maintained that "combating health care fraud is one of this Administrations top law enforcement priorities."In July, Pfizer reached a final settlement [JURIST report] with the Nigerian state of Kano over allegedly illegal clinical trials [BBC backgrounder] of the then-experimental antibiotic Trovan [FDA backgrounder] conducted in 1996. The suit accused the company of administering meningitis medication to 200 Nigerian children, 100 of which included Trovan, without government authorization or guardian consent. The Nigerian state of Kano claimed that the testing resulted in the death of 11 children and the incapacitation of 181 others and demanded $2.75 billion in damages. The company has denied the allegations, calling its actions ethical and beneficial, and is expected to pay $75 million to settle the suit.
[JURIST] The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) [official website] has announced [declaration, PDF] that they would not release further documents regarding investigations into alleged detainee mistreatment in Iraq and Afghanistan. Filed late Monday in response to a Freedom of Information Act suit [materials] brought by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) [advocacy website], the declaration maintains that the withheld documents and information describing interrogation and rendition procedures are "highly sensitive" and fall into FOIA exceptions. The unreleased information supposedly details how the CIA developed its program and coordinated with other US agencies, how it targeted terrorists, and how it worked with its liaison partners to develop "information that was essential to protecting the United States." The declaration argues that releasing such information would expose the names of CIA employees and sources, intra-agency discussions and deliberations, attorney-client communications, and private personnel files. The ACLU responded [press release] to the filing, saying that the arguments are "utterly disconnected from the Obama administration's stated positions" on ending torture and restoring transparency.Last week, the CIA released letters and memoranda [JURIST report] detailing the conduction of overseas interrogations that included sleep deprivation, dietary manipulation and physical abuse. The documents, which analyzed the legality of "enhanced interrogation" procedures, were released pursuant to a court order resulting from the ACLU FOIA litigation. Also last week, US Attorney General Eric Holder [official profile] announced that the Department of Justice (DOJ) will "open a preliminary review" [JURIST report] into allegations of prisoner abuse by CIA interrogators during the Bush administration. In July, a former CIA counter-terrorism agent reported that waterboarding techniques were used prior to the issuance of legal memos authorizing the practice [JURIST reports]. Also in July, former DOJ lawyer and memo author John Yoo declared his intent to appeal a ruling that allowed a lawsuit [JURIST reports] against him for complicity in torture. The suit claims that Yoo's legal opinions endorsing certain interrogation techniques led to torture.
[JURIST] The Colombian House of Representatives [official website, in Spanish] on Tuesday voted 85-5 [official results, DOC, in Spanish] to approve a bill [text, PPS, in Spanish] to hold a referendum on whether President Alvaro Uribe [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] can run for a third presidential term. There were 76 abstentions. To pass the bill, 83 votes were necessary, and one of the additional votes came from a representative who had vowed to abstain [El Heraldo report, in Spanish] from voting because of a preliminary investigation into his actions in the 2004 voting process on the constitutional amendment that allowed Uribe to run for a second term. The bill will now have to be evaluated within the next 90 days by the Constitutional Court [official website, in Spanish]. Also Tuesday, the Supreme Court [official website, in Spanish] of Colombia issued a decision [El Heraldo report, in Spanish] to continue investigating 86 members of Congress for alleged irregularities and receiving political favors during the 2004 voting process and for ties to paramilitary forces. On Wednesday, a leading conservative senator accused of receiving political favors in 2004 turned himself in [Telam report, in Spanish] after the Supreme Court issued an arrest warrant for him on Tuesday. The opposition and members of academia have decried [press release, PDF, in Spanish] the proposed referendum as a severe damage to democracy, and some Uribe supporters have also spoken against the measure. Uribe has not officially announced whether he would run for re-election if the referendum results were in favor of allowing a third term.The Colombian Senate [official website] in May approved [press release, in Spanish; JURIST report] a proposal to hold a referendum on amending the country's constitution [text, in Spanish] to allow for a third presidential term. Uribe was elected to a second term in 2006 after a similar referendum, approved by Congress [NYT report] in December 2004 and the Constitutional Court [JURIST report] in October 2005, lifted the original one-term limit. In June 2008, the Colombian Supreme Court ruled [AP report] that a legal inquiry should be held into the election after it found that a legislator had been bribed to help push through the constitutional changes. In response, Uribe called for a referendum [JURIST report] on the election.

Renew Now! Entertainment Weekly's Jess Cagle Sells Murray Hill Pad for Just $1.4 M.!
There comes a time in every magazine subscriber's life when she looks at the stacks of unread glossies piling up around the house, or finds herself sighing with relief when an ad-fattened double-issue lands in her mailbox, and concludes, sadly, that this must stop.
We assume that it was with a similar mix of regret and liberation that Entertainment Weekly editor Jess Cagle cancelled his residence at 10 Park Avenue. Mr. Cagle must have looked forward to getting the Murray Hill two-bedroom, eagerly anticipated poring over detail and then, slowly, before he knew it, the place had transformed from a delight into a burden. Or maybe Mr. Cagle and his partner, interior decorator Shawn Henderson, simply found a bigger, fancier spread somewhere else. Read More

Students at a suburban Atlanta elementary school are making bracelets for classmates in an effort to help tornado victims in northwest Georgia.
The effort at Davis Elementary School in Cobb County is aimed at helping tornado victims in the neighboring county of Bartow.
The Marietta Daily Journal reports that students recently lined up to buy the bracelets made by fourth-graders in Bonnie Popienko's class.
Each morning this week, the children have been selling bracelets they made for 25 to 50 cents each.
The sales benefit victims of the Jan. 30 tornado that hit Adairsville in Bartow County, leaving one person dead.
Popienko said many of her 30 students have spent between 25 and 30 hours before and after school making and selling the bracelets.

Don Gordon stars as Salvatore Ross, a repulsively arrogant young man who thinks that the world owes him a living. When he is rejected by virtuous social worker Leah Maitland (Gail Kobe), Ross vows to improve himself, and to do that he harnesses his newly-found ability to acquire the physical and personal traits of other people. But Ross miscalculates when he tries out his special skills on Leah's saintly father (Vaughn Taylor). The supporting cast of this Twilight Zone entry ran the age gamut from 20-something Seymour Cassel to septuagenarian Douglas Dumbrille. Scripted by Jerry McNeeley (of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. fame) from a story by Henry Slesar, "The Self-Improvement of Salvatore Ross" made its network bow on January 17, 1964. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
