Survivor Story: Jay Enoch
My pancreatic cancer was found purely by chance! My father died of an aortic aneurism in his 70s. The abdominal aorta is that portion of the aorta generally affected in that disorder. When I reached the age at which my dad died, I asked my internist whether I should be examined for a possible aortic aneurism. She agreed and arranged a CT scan for me. At the hospital, the capable young radiologist informed me that my aorta was fine, but that my pancreas looked rather strange. I had no symptoms of pancreatic disease. A second CT scan confirmed the anomaly. I then gave the lady radiologist a large bouquet of roses! I was promptly referred for additional tests such as ultrasounds and biopsies.
Less than a week later, I was referred to an outstanding pancreatic surgeon. For 12.5 hours, she performed on me the full Whipple procedure for my Intraductal Papillary-Mucinous Neoplasm. After surgery, I was declared clear of malignant cells, and shortly thereafter, I was designated a survivor! It has been four years now, and I feel fine! Yes, there are complications of the Whipple, but I feel I have been blessed.
Also, I have been designated a survivor of squamous-cell carcinoma (about 24 years), and prostate cancer (about 14 years). I believe that one must have the will to overcome the trials encountered in life. The day before I entered the hospital for Whipple surgery, I mailed two abstracts for talks to be given at professional societies during the spring months. Later, I gave those talks proudly! We must put up the good fight, act promptly when the cancer is detected, and, of course, pursue means of early detection and treatments.
Pancreatic Cancer Action Network offers fine supportive services towards such ends. They provided me with sound information. For example, they helped me find a first-class dietitian when I encountered serious digestive problems following the Whipple. More recently, Pancreatic Cancer Action Network provided me once again with educational materials when my pancreatic enzyme production was insufficient. In turn, I have had the privilege of communicating with a number of individuals as a volunteer who speaks with others to provide hope and inspiration through the Survivor and Caregiver Network at Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.
When young, I wrote the national plan for the new National Eye Institute, the NEI. I served twice on the National Advisory Eye Council. Separately, I helped start modern professional optometry in India (at Chennai, formerly Madras). This successful program and college have since been cloned, and today there are 7 added new colleges in India - all cooperating with ophthalmology. I served as Dean at Berkeley for 12 years, and upon the California Systemwide Health Sciences Committee. Thus, I have had fine opportunities to build educational and scientific programs and institutions!
In retirement, I have dedicated myself to help others afflicted with pancreatic cancers.
We need orderly and quality growth of our scientific cohorts in order to provide early detection, prevention, and treatment of pancreatic cancers! Most critically, we must enhance our early detection of these diseases. And we must attract additional fine researchers and practitioners to our cause. These causes must be supported by distinguished centers for pancreatic research and teaching. Toward such ends, this year I served Pancreatic Cancer Action Network as lobbyist, as a Survivor-Scientist at the AACR meeting, and I have encouraged young and enthusiastic students and their very fine teacher in a nascent pancreatic research program at Chapman University in Orange, CA. I have also personally donated to pancreatic research. To be more effective, I am continually seeking education about pancreatic cancers. And, above all, we must all work and plan together to achieve success!

âNashvilleâ and âPolkaâ arenât often connected in the minds of the general public, but Music City actually has quite a polka history, in large part because of the enthusiasm of two late polka lovers, maverick producer and record executive Steve Popovich and Country Music Hall of Fame inductee Cowboy Jack Clement.
Polka enthusiast Popovich actually signed polka star Frank Yankovic to a major record label contract in the 1980s, and he was a friend and supporter of Nashville polka folks including Grammy winner Joey Miskulin and five-time Grammy nominee LynnMarie Rink. Clement was often called âNashvilleâs Polka King,â and in 1986 he produced Yankovicâs âPolka Pandemoniumâ concert at 3rd and Lindsley: The resulting recording was released on albums as âAmericaâs Polka King.â
Steve Popovich Jr. is reviving the âPolka Pandemoniumâ show on Tuesday, Oct. 29, at 3rd and Lindsley, with Brave Combo taking the stage at 7 p.m. ($15, www.3rdandlindsley.com). The show will be a polka bash and a celebration of Popovich and Clementâs myriad contributions. Oh, and Rink plays her own polka show on Saturday, Oct. 26, at 7 p.m. at The Pavilion, 1530 Demonbreun ($20 at the door benefits the Bellevue YMCA Full Circle Program and includes sausages and pierogies.)

Canning jars pop after two weeks or more
I can orange marmalade once a year (maybe), so I'm not very experienced. Last year I started experiencing a problem with seals popping, and it is happening again this year.
The jars all seal, and everything appears great. Then about a week out, one pops up, then a week later, another... and before long 10 - 20% of my seals fail.
This year I was a fanatic about cleaning the jars before placing the lids. (The jars and lids are all Ball, all lids are new.)
I boil and simmer the lids, but notice some white hard-water residue and wonder if that could be contributing to the failures.
(I've canned about 15 years and NEVER had any fail - beginners luck I suppose - until now.)
By the way, the lids still hold on tight and I feel like they are still really sealed, but wouldn't dare take the chance, so I give them away immediately and tell everyone to refrigerate and eat right away. It's a drag because these are supposed to be gifts.
Why do they seal initially, then pop up several weeks later? (I live in Florida, and room temp can be typically warm.)
Thanks for all your very informative replies. You all have collectively convinced me to use a water bath from now on. (The acid in the citrus is why I was told water bath wasn't necessary... but I read yesterday it's b/c botulism "rarely" survives in that atmosphere. *rarely)
Can I do a water bath on cooled jars?
Does water bathing continue cooking it (it has to, yes?) increasing the jelled aspect, making the marmalade denser?
I don't want to reheat the marmalade and repack it - I did that last year and it made it super-congealed, not very good, but I'll certainly do a water bath now if it's still an option at this point.-
re: laboutwe
If the jars have set out for over a day or so, I'd dump all the marmalade in a pot and bring to a boil and them recan them. I wouldn't be comfortable just boiling the jars, especially if they had not sealed. Maybe you can add some extra water or juice to keep it from being so extra congealed?
re: laboutwe
No, it's not possible to water-bath it unless you dump the marmalade out and bring it back to a simmer, then repack in hot, sterile jars. If you really don't want to, and want to keep your marmalade around longer, repack it in freezer containers and freeze what you won't consume in a month or so.
What catches my eye in your description is that you "I boil and simmer the lids".
I believe with with "modern" lids, you should not boil the lids. If the water is too hot the sealing compound may be damaged before it's set onto the jar.
What I do is bring the water to a boil and take it off the heat. When the water is around 190F, I drop in the bands and lids.
I just read that you are not hot water canning your product. That could be another reason why you're not achieving a full seal. Hot water canning will create a vacuum in the jar which will help set the lid onto the jar. -
If I were you, I would go ahead and process in a hot water bath. It's just safer and more foolproof. However, there are occasions when I had skipped this and put hot preserves into sterilized jars. When I do that (and I usually don't), I boil the jars first, then keep them hot in the oven until I am ready to fill them. If you aren't going to process in the boiling water bath, it is imperative that not only the preserves, but the jars themselves, be very hot (too hot to touch) when you fill them. As you are in Florida, that could be an additional factor, as what you are relying on here is the difference in temperature between the room and the hot jars/preserves to form the vacuum as they cool.
re: laboutwe
At this point, if the marmalade is good at all, the solution would be to dump the marmalade into a pot and reboil, then re-can into sterilized (and very hot) jars. I would err on the side of caution and process in a boiling water bath. But you would definitely need to reboil the marmalade before packing into clean jars and processing.
1. The directions say not to boil the flats, just put them in simmering water.
2. I got a visibly bad batch of flats last year, Ball gave me a coupon to replace them.
3. The Center for Food Preservation says to process marmalade in a water bath. -
Have you contacted Ball?
I recall that boiling the lids is not required, just simmering for 5 minutes. Long boiling of the lids prior to use can sometimes cause the seal to deteriorate.
Have you changed the recipe at all? And do you wash the fruit with soap and water before using?
From what you describe, it sounds as though the fruit is fermenting.-
re: KarenDW
Fermentation was the first thing that came to my mind, since it happened well after the canning. I'd guess the marmalade wasn't hot enough to kill everything inside, or some stray atmospheric yeast got trapped inside and pigged out on the sugars.
I don't boil my lids either: since I pressure-can everything, I rely on the super-heated contents to kill everything inside. When my mother did jams and jellies, she didn't even use lids - she poured a 1/2" layer of liquid paraffin on top of the hot contents of the jars. It kept the air out, and I don't recall problems with the jams or jellies - that much sugar acted as a preservative. The last time I made jam, though, I pressure-canned it.
Were the jars filled to the proper level? Too much headroom will cause a weaker seal. Underprocessing is another possibility.
re: GH1618
The contents are still boiling when I ladle them into the first jar. I usually only make about 6-8 per batch, so it's not about heat.
Last night I checked and one of the lids - which was previously sealed and popped wasn't even stuck down. It literally fell off when unscrewed the ring. I felt the jar: no knicks, no stickiness; perfect and clean. However, there was a blemish on the rubber part of the lid.
I guess it's most likely the lids' imperfections. But that means about 15% of my lids are bad, meaning I have a lot of marmalade to eat right away.
That also means I can't trust storing them for long term. (Last year, some popped up, popped down - repeatedly.)
re: laboutwe
First, you need to fill the jars to 1/2 inch from top.
Second, the lids should not be boiled. Bring water in a pot to a simmer over medium heat and drop in lids, keep lids warm until ready to use, but do not boil.
Third, you need to process the jars for 15 minutes in a boiling water bath. I don't know where you heard you don't have to process marmalade, but that isn't true. I've heard that before about not processing, but as you just found out, you need to.


text: Fingers entwined, mingled and clenched Don't let me go alone; Don't re-break these broken bones; The rain still pours; our souls completely drenched. Hold me closer as I fight for breath Struggling to hold on; I want this to be gone; Crushing weights; suffocating far beneath. Timed out, expired and over due They want us out; To wander about; It seems they are not done with you. I feel your breath running down my neck I savour out sweet moment; Our hearts beat far from dormant; Not knowing what comes next. Quivering lips are locked, hands cling tighter still Our bodies embraced; As I read your face; Nerves are screaming, skin tingling with a burning thrill. Reddening cheeks light up and blush Your freckles fading in the rush Skin still flaring with every touch A feeling like this, is just too much.

The tenses bother me. The initial tense is past progressive. It refers to a situation that continued for a while in the past but has been concluded by the present time. Because of that, I would use "was not advertising" and "could go to the store", both of which are in the past tense. I assume that the spider's interest in all of this was not being stepped on in the store.
Yes, you can drop the second luck if the context is clear. We do this often with a similar phrase: In good times or in bad.
If the room is a separate room with lockers, it can be called a locker room.
If it is an adjoining room with hooks for clothes, it can be called a cloak room or a coat room.

"Life goes on and you just keep helping people and getting everybody through it," Carter said. "It's going to be okay."
This will be the 43rd "first day of school" for Carter, who admitted she still had some preparations to make.
"I will probably not leave here until ten o'clock tonight," she said.
For Assistant Superintendent John Reed of West Clark Schools, the opening comes much sooner than anticipated.
"Right after the tornado hit I was thinking like a year, more like a year and a half, so it's pretty phenomenal to be at this point five months later," Reed said. "Miracles happen. I think the message we want to send to our kids is through your faith and supporting each other, you can get through just about anything."
The smell of fresh paint still lingered Monday in the black and gold hallway of the high school where pictures of the Hornets' past hung on redone walls. Some still can't believe how quickly the rebuilding work progressed.
"They've worked 24/7, so it's just amazing how we've been able to get back in the building," said teacher Debbie Downing. "There's a few little things that have to be finished up, but all and all it's pretty good. It's just kind of neat to be back home again."
Those who talked to Fox59 said Henryville wouldn't be getting back on its feet without the help of thousands of people across the country who donated time and resources to rebuild.
"You think you go through this devastation and you'd be down on the world, but we're truly blessed," Carter said.

Iran is currently facing possible UN sanctions over its nuclear program. Last month, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] strongly criticized [JURIST report] new attempts to impose UN sanctions. The Iranian leader said that actions being taken by the US and its allies in the UN Security Council [official website] are illegal and that his country will not accept any pressure. In September, Ahmadinejad denied [JURIST report] that Iran had broken nuclear development regulations in respect to a newly-disclosed nuclear facility. The statement followed a press conference where US, British, French, and German leaders said in a joint statement [press release] that Iran had violated the terms of agreements with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) [official website] by failing to disclose in a timely manner the existence of a nuclear facility. Under the terms [IAEA board report, PDF] of a 2003 protocol [text, PDF] to Iran's original IAEA Safeguards Agreement [text, PDF], Iran was obligated to disclose the existence of the plant prior to construction. Iran has previously said it will completely withdraw [JURIST report] from the IAEA if its "nuclear rights" are taken away.
The decision of the appeals court comes just weeks after the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) [official website] resumed the war crimes trial [JURIST report] of former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic [case materials; JURIST news archive]. Karadzic is the alleged mastermind behind the violence against Bosnian Muslims during the Bosnian war [PPU backgrounder]. The war crimes trial resumed last month after the ICTY dismissed [JURIST report] Kardzic's latest motion to delay court proceedings, in which he argued that there had been a violation of his right to a fair hearing because the court had rejected previous evidentiary challenges. Karadzic is defending himself against 11 counts [amended indictment, PDF], including genocide and murder.
Same-sex marriages are currently recognized in Buenos Aires and Mexico City [JURIST reports]. Uruguay remains the only Latin American country that has nationally legalized same-sex civil unions. Uruguay has since expanded the rights given to same-sex couples by passing a law last year allowing same-sex couples to adopt [JURIST report]. Canada [JURIST report] is the only American nation to have legalized same-sex marriage, and Spain [JURIST report] is the only nation in the Spanish-speaking world to have done the same. Both nations legalized gay marriage in 2005.
Fonseka successfully won a seat in parliament last month, despite facing two separate court-martials charging him with participating in politics while in uniform and with improperly awarding army procurement contracts. Last month, he appeared before parliament to call for his freedom [JURIST report] and for respect for the "rule of law." Fonseka was arrested [JURIST report] by the military in February after losing presidential elections held the previous month. In March, the former chief justice of the Supreme Court criticized [JURIST report] the government's treatment of Fonseka. Sarath Nanda Silva, who retired from the Sri Lankan Supreme Court last year, accused the government of using the military justice system to prevent Fonseka from participating in the upcoming elections and of violating Fonseka's civil rights. Silva also said that Fonseka's arrest was made in violation of the country's constitution [text].
The Danish cartoons depicting Mohammed were originally published in a Danish newspaper in 2005, leading to worldwide protests and lawsuits for those who reprinted the cartoons, including suits in Yemen, France, and Jordan [JURIST reports]. The Danish government did not press criminal charges [JURIST report] against the Danish newspaper that originally printed the articles. Last month, US citizen David Headley pleaded guilty [JURIST report] to 12 counts of federal terrorism, including charges related to an alleged plot against the Danish creator and publishers of the controversial cartoons.
In narcoanalysis, the suspect is injected with drugs such as sodium thiopental, which cause him to be more susceptible to questioning. Evidence obtained through the use of narcoanalysis or polygraphs was previously inadmissible in Indian court under the Evidence Act 1872 [text], but police could use the information to lead to other evidence that might be admissible.
Gay rights continue to be a contentious issue both in New York and throughout the country. In December, the New York Senate rejected legislation [JURIST report] that would have legalized same-sex marriage [JURIST news archive] in the state. Last year, the Manhattan Surrogate Court ruled that the surviving partner of a same-sex marriage performed in Canada is entitled to inherit the estate [JURIST report] of a deceased spouse. In 2008, New York Governor David Paterson issued a mandate requiring that any and all out-of-state same-sex marriages be recognized [JURIST report] as legal within the state of New York. Same-sex marriage is currently legal in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Washington, DC [JURIST reports]. Same-sex civil unions are currently recognized in Washington, New Jersey, Oregon, and Nevada [JURIST reports].
The security certificate law, used to arrest and deport non-Canadians considered threats to national security, has become controversial in recent years because it relies on evidence heard in secret, and detainees are not informed in full detail of the allegations against them. Earlier in December, it was reported that the Canadian government has begun reviewing [JURIST report] its security certificate system. Public Safety Minister Peter Van Loan [official profile] said the government is considering making significant changes to the law or abolishing it completely. In September, the government withdrew [National Post report] a certificate against Moroccan-born Montreal resident Adil Charkaoui in lieu of subjecting its evidence against him to review in court. Charkaoui is also suing the government.

Fairmont, W.Va. - "Start with drive to trailhead and how you arrived at this decision.
"The decision to make a trek is not made, it is given. I guess that does not make it a decision because you have no choice. It is an order that you just have to execute. Execution is a proper term to use for the trek for it seems they invariably end in death. Death of a body or a 'soul' or both. My end has yet to be determined."
- Letter written by Roy Plummer and found by Kathy Plummer after his suicide
On Jan. 16, 2008, six days before Roy Plummer died, he and Kathy Plummer got into a huge argument because he didn't show up when he was supposed to. Roy left the house and moved into a motel in Clarksburg.
At 5 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 18, Kathy called Roy and asked if he was coming home.
Roy said he wasn't.
"Guys, I know that I told you before that I would never abandon you again," Roy said over a speakerphone to Kathy's two children. "It's not your mom's fault. I lied to her so many times, I can't remember."
Two hours later Roy Plummer robbed his last bank.
'Ladies, give me all your money'
Plummer walked into the Dollar Bank on Oak Springs Road in South Strabane, Pa., at about 7 p.m. He approached teller Theresa Killinger with a scarf covering the bottom half of his face, according to the police report. He held a gun in his hand.
"Ladies, give me all your money. Hurry up, give me all your money," he said, according to the police report. "Don't give me your bait. Don't pull it. Turn around if you are not going to help."
Plummer turned to another teller and said, "I don't want your change, and lay down."
He left the store with about $7,000. A bank employee ran to lock the front door and caught a last glimpse of Plummer next to his silver Nissan Altima.
When South Strabane police arrived, they called the force's only full-time detective, John Bruner.
The bank tellers told Bruner the robber had "Mountaineer" written on his tan hat, "Quest" stitched on his jacket, and that there was a dent in the front right fender of his car.
Generally when South Strabane police do media releases, they send the information out to just the Pittsburgh and Washington County, Pa., area, Bruner said.
"I spoke with the FBI, and they thought this gentleman was well-versed in robbing banks, that he might have some experience with this," Bruner said. "It was based on his demeanor during the robbery and his ability to rob multiple tellers. ... This one had a different flavor to it."
Bruner decided to send images of the robbery to television stations in Wheeling, Morgantown and Bridgeport, W.Va.
'I just figured it out'
At WBOY-TV in Clarksburg, Sarah Kapis, a native of Washington County, took an interest in the bank robbery story. She decided to run the story on Monday, Bruner said.
When Kathy Plummer turned on her television at noon on Monday, Jan. 21, the footage had been playing all weekend.
"They showed a picture of [Roy] wearing a jacket I gave him for Christmas. It was a hiking jacket. And I noticed the hat he was wearing," Kathy said.
She hit record on her DVR. "I kept watching it over and over, putting it on pause," she said. "I called him and said, 'Roy you need to come home. There has been a family emergency.'"
When Roy got there, Kathy confronted him.
"You know you lied to me so many times before. But I just figured it out," she said to him. "Where were you Friday at 7?"
Unable to lie his way out, he looked like a deer caught in headlights, Kathy said. He started to reach into his coat for a gun but didn't pull it out.
"I didn't see him as a friend or lover anymore," she said. "I saw him as a criminal."
They went into the house. Roy methodically closed the door and locked it, then asked where the boys were.
Kathy said they were asleep.
"Are there FBI agents?" he asked.
"Nope, just me, you, the boys and the dogs," she said.
Kathy showed him the robbery video from the DVR.
"Is this you?" she asked.
Roy dropped to his knees and crawled to Kathy's chair.
"That's me, Kathy Lee," Roy said, clutching her legs.
"Were there more?" she asked.
"A lot more, a lot more," he said.
Both of them started to cry.
'I'm going to be
the one to call'
Roy left the house and apparently drove straight to his Morgantown therapist.
One of Kathy's sons came downstairs and saw the frozen image of Roy robbing a bank on the television. Kathy said he quickly realized who it was and picked up the phone to call police.
She grabbed the phone away from him.
"I'm going to be the one to call, not you," she said.
The reality of what had just transpired began to sink in.
"It was like being at the beach and being hit by a wave," she said.

Read an interview with fellow "Mountain Stage" performer Michael Cerveris, a former Huntington resident, here.
Read a review of Paul Thorn's new album here.
"Mountain Stage"
With Arlo Guthrie and Boys Night Out, Paul Thorn, Michael Cerveris and Loose Cattle and Delta Rae
WHERE: Keith Albee Theater, 925 4th Ave, Huntington
WHEN: 7 p.m. Sunday
TICKETS: $35 (free for Marshall students)
INFO: 304-696-6656 or www.ticketmaster.com
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Paul Thorn says that, if a man thinks he's nothing if a woman leaves him, then he probably has the answer to why she left him in the first place.
He said, "You turn on the TV and see these good-looking guys with blow-dried hair and washboard abs, but they're wimps."
They sing about how they're going to fall apart if the women they love leave them.
"I think the world has got enough of those kinds of songs," said the former boxer and son a preacher man. "I think it's time men started to reclaim their manhood."
If Thorn, who appears Sunday in Huntington on "Mountain Stage," can help a few men do that with one of his songs, that's great. And if it has to be a cover song, that's fine, too.
After writing nine albums, the singer/songwriter decided to hand some of the heavy lifting over to someone else. His 10th record, "What the Hell is Goin' On?" is a collection of covers, each done in Thorn's bluesy Southern rock style.

Aviation is one of the fastest growing industries worldwide and the fastest growing transportation mode in India.
Two monopolies. One private and the other public; one in gas and one in coal. Both equally disastrous for the environment. I speak here of Reliance Industries Ltd and Coal India Ltd.
Says this is a ploy to avoid higher taxation on diesel cars
Just consider. Every time petrol prices are raised, oil companies end up losing more money. Simply because the price differential between petrol and diesel increases further, and people gravitate towards diesel vehicles. More the use of diesel, more the oil companies bleed. Worse, we all bleed because diesel vehicles add to toxic pollution in our cities, which, in turn, adds to ill health and treatment costs.
Cleverly crafted standards conceal more than they reveal
The government has avoided stating the real targets for improvement
Air Quality issues in Sri Lanka By Central Environmental Authority |

Learn what makes TRG Arts one of the leading arts consulting firms
TRG's results-focused approach drives revenue success for clients
Search or browse our knowledge center for TRG insights and solutions that work for arts and entertainment organizations of all genres and sizes.
Let us suggest a Valentine theme for your important patron activities this month. As you're planning subscription renewal, fiscal yearend giving, or admissions for summer festivals and during peak visitation season, think: "Be Mine" rather than simply "Buy Now." Of course you need to focus on revenue. But, to get there, remember each of these efforts is about building relationships with your patrons. Like a romance, patron relationships evolve step-by-step, over time to become lasting and lifelong. With love—and loyalty— in the air, we've put together 3 ways to attract and keep the patrons of your dreams, those who will stick with you.
Click through to watch the video or browse the slides from the webinar.
"Large data sets and big revenue goals can be overwhelming," Amelia Northrup-Simpson said at the 2013 National Arts Marketing Project Conference. "We can simplify those by stepping back and viewing marketing efforts through the 'patron lens'. That means thinking about each patron's right next step with your organization and talking to your audience like you know them to get them to take that next step."
David Dombrosky of InstantEncore and Amanda Edelman of Academy of Vocal Arts joined Northrup-Simpson to present a session entitled "The Patron Lens: Engaging Audiences with Data-driven Targeted Messaging." In the session, the three presenters discussed topics including putting patron data in context and why to segment communications. The presenters also covered three different ways to segment: by generation, by loyalty level, and by technology usage.
Our live chat last week with the Foundation Center (see transcript) raised an alarming question: In this time of year when patrons are thinking about us, are we thinking about our relationships with them?
The holidays are just around the corner. Huge numbers of patrons will be seeking tickets for holiday programming and making decisions about yearend giving.
In an ideal world, arts staff teams would already be implementing strategy to forge bonds with the people they'll interact with during the holiday peak period. One can wish, but there's too much evidence to suggest that most marketing, development and box office teams aren't even talking to one another. Everyone's busy. There's no time. Two dozen deadlines are looming. The number of reasons for not focusing here is paralyzing.
That's why the questions we answered in real time during last week's chat were so provocative. They reiterated the busy state of arts management today and spotlighted a looming loss:
You're about to miss what might be your best patron cultivation opportunity all year.

What is using all the 4gb ROM space?
Is it just me that finds it weird that a 4gb phone only has like 0.97gb free bone stock?
Re: What is using all the 4gb ROM space?
yes, that is perfectly normal. You actually start with less than four before they even put the ROM on. THen The ROM and firmware takes like 2GB, then some bloat.
Then you are about out of space. - 11-24-2012, 12:21 PM Thread Author #3
Re: What is using all the 4gb ROM space?
Then why does the Kyocera Rise, I also have, start with 2gb ROM space and has the same 0.97gb free bone stock? It is hard to believe Sence 4.0 takes up 2gb all by itself.

Prepare For A Flood Of Bank Earnings
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- I have been analyzing the publicly traded FDIC-insured financial institutions since early 2006. I began my studies a year earlier focusing on the housing market and home builder stocks. I correctly called the top for the builders in mid-2005, and then turned my attention to the community and regional banks. I began to warn about all banks in April 2006 and community banks began to fall like dominoes at the end of 2006 with the money center and regional banks crumbling beginning in February 2007.
Since the stock market bottom in March 2009 I have been dissecting the FDIC Quarterly Banking Profiles tracking the improvements in the banking system, but also warning that the Great Credit Crunch is not yet over.
A month ago I wrote, Big Banks Face Limited Upside, but when the PHLX KBW Banking Index
Remember that the banking index includes the four 'too big to fail' money center banks and that all 24 components of the index are rated hold. This makes next week's earnings from these 12 banks extremely important.
On July 8 I wrote, Bank Indices Set Multi-Year Highs Pre-Earnings and the banking index set at least an interim peak on July 9. Bank earnings must beat on EPS and revenue without cautious guidance. The ValuEngine valuation warning intensified even more on Thursday with 75.0% of all stocks overvalued, 40.6% overvalued by 20% or more. The finance sector is 18.0% overvalued with a continued equal-weight asset allocation rating.Select the service that is right for you!

Product Reviews
Swanstone Corporate Statement
For more than four decades, we have been a quiet leader in the kitchen and bath industry. Our high-quality products have always balanced durability, value and style. Innovation is one of our core values, and we have set a standard with our ability to invent. Now it's time to reinvent.
The Swan Story
For more than 40 years, we've been creating innovative and affordable solid surface products and materials for customers all over the world. It started in 1964, when we introduced the Swan Shell Shower, a doorless, shell-shaped shower that captured the spirit of its time.
The Shell Shower was the first in a long line of original kitchen and bath products from Swan, including the Circle Shower as well as the industry's first non-ceramic tile bathtub wall system.
In 1987, we introduced Swanstone to the world, first with a line of vanity tops and bowls. Swanstone quickly became known for its superior impact strength, heat resistance, and ability to resist scratches and stains. Consumers now had an elegant and durable solid surface material that was also affordable.
Since then, our Swanstone line has expanded to include a wide variety of kitchen sinks, countertops, tub and shower walls, and more. In 1994 we introduced the Swanstone 1/4" sheet program, offering even more flexibility to Swanstone customers. In 1997 we introduced a complete line of Swanstone products for the restaurant industry, including tabletops, countertops, vanity tops, mop service sinks and windowsills.
At Swan, we're committed to a policy of continuous improvement, to providing our customers with the highest quality products and most responsive customer service in the kitchen & bath industry. And we stand behind this commitment with some of the best warranties in the business.
Made in America
The Swan Corporation is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, with manufacturing facilities in Centralia, Illinois.
We proudly manufacture all products made from these material systems in the USA.

Brera Academy
This article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2011) |
Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera | |
Established | 1776 |
Type | Public |
Dean | Franco Marrocco |
Students | 3,800[1] |
Location | Milan, Italy |
Campus | Urban |
Website | www.accademiadibrera.milano.it |
The Academy of Fine Arts of Brera (Italian: Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera), also known as Brera Academy (Accademia di Brera), is a public academic institution located in Milan, Italy.
The Academy was founded in 1776 by Maria Theresa of Austria with the objective to teach and research within the creative arts and cultural historical disciplines.
Under the current Italian regulations, the Brera Academy issues academic diplomas of first level (equivalent to degree) and academic diplomas of second level (equivalent to master's degree). In 2005 the teaching of the academy has been classified by UNESCO as "A5". It is also regarded as one of the world's leading academic institutions.
The Academy has about 3,800 students,[1] including about 1,000 foreign students (mostly postgraduates).[1] It actively exchanges students and teachers with other European countries through the ERASMUS programme, and since 2006, with countries outside EU such as Japan, China, Hong Kong, Mexico, Taiwan and Australia.
- 1572: The ownership of the Palazzo Brera, built on the ruins of a convent of the Humiliati, was transferred to the Jesuits. The name "Brera" derives from the German term "braida" (Breite) which indicates a large grassy clearing, referring to the spot where the namesake building that still houses the headquarters of the Academy is located.[2]
- 1627-1628: The restoration of the building was entrusted to the architect Francesco Maria Richini.[2]
- 1772: The Society of Jesus was suppressed; the Palazzo Brera received a new institutional framework, including the Brera Astronomical Observatory, the National Braidense Library and the Brera Botanical Garden.[2]
- 1776: The Brera Academy was founded by Maria Theresa of Austria, with the official mission of "Providing teaching in Fine Arts to craftsmen and private artists, subject to public supervision and public opinion". The project was entrusted to the architect Giuseppe Piermarini and that same year the Academy hosted the first chair of Architecture. Also in 1776, the Brera Art Gallery (Pinacoteca di Brera) was founded for educational purposes. The Brera Art Gallery, a museum of international standing, houses the most important collection in Milan today. It includes, among other masterpieces, works by Giovanni Bellini, Boccioni, Botticelli, Caravaggio, Hayez, Leonardo da Vinci, Mantegna, Modigliani, Picasso, Piero della Francesca, Raphael, Rembrandt, Rubens, Tiepolo, Tintoretto, Titian and Veronese.
- 1809: The architectural complex of Palazzo Brera was adapted to its new function, following the design of Pietro Gilardoni. The fourteenth-century façade of the Church of Santa Maria di Brera attributed to Giovanni di Balduccio from Pisa, was destroyed. The plan aimed to provide larger spaces to the Academy Schools of Painting and Sculpture and to enlarge the exhibition halls of the galleries above. After demolition, the bas-reliefs and sculptures and fragments of the façade of the portal of the Church were transferred to the Museo d'Arte Antica of the Sforza Castle in Milan, where they are still visible to these days. The works that decorated the inside of the church, made by Bernardino Luini, Bernardo Senale, Bartolomeo Suardi known as Bramantino and Vincenzo Foppa, are now in the Brera Art Gallery and in the Museum of Science and Technology in Milan. Other parts of frescoes attributed to Giusto de' Menabuoi, bases of columns, capitals and wall decorations are still visible in the classrooms used by the Design Department of Design and Applied Arts.
- 1859: Following a visit by Napoleon III, the bronze statue Napoleon I as a peacemaker Mars was placed at the center of the Palazzo Brera court, on a marble pedestal designed by Luigi Bisi. The statue was commissioned by Eugène de Beauharnais in 1807, and produced in Rome in the years 1811-1812 from a model by Antonio Canova.
- 1863: The Archaeological Museum was founded.
- 1891: The School of Architecture was founded.
- 1923: The reform of the Italian schools promoted by Giovanni Gentile after the First World War instituted the "Liceo Artistico" (art high school) in the same premises of the Academy. Adolfo Wildt, Francesco Messina and Marino Marini were nominated heads of the Sculpture Department. Notable students from this period are Lucio Fontana and Fausto Melotti. The Fresco chair was established for Achille Funi.
- 1931: The School of Architecture moved to the Politecnico di Milano.
- 1946: After the Second World War, the Academy continued under the direction of Aldo Carpi, with Guido Ballo as Professor of Art History, in addition to Alik Cavaliere and Andrea Cascella (sculpture), Mauro Reggiani, Domenico Cantatore, Pompeo Borra and Domenico Purificato (painting).

Welcome to Environmental High
Published on Wed, Apr 22, 2009 by

Beginning this week is a series about the efforts being made by Sequim students to reduce their ecological impact in the area and world and promote sustainability by going "green." This week focuses on groups at Sequim High School.
Students face big environmental issues now and in the upcoming years. A group of proactive and ecologically conscious students is pounding the pavement to let others know about "going green" at Sequim High School.
Advocates including Alisa Lee, president of Student Political Awareness, led the Earth Week committee in motivating students to donate change to buy four trees in the Amazon Rain Forest and to bring another tree to the SHS campus.
Lee and her group plan an advertising campaign to let classmates know that they can recycle not only aluminum cans but also newspaper, plastic and glass.
The school has eight bins for recyclables around campus. Students requested two recycling bins be placed at the soccer fields because school-sponsored and junior teams threw away many recyclables.
Lee also made signs to be placed above light switches in every classroom districtwide saying, "Please turn off the lights." The school district maintenance department will distribute the signs. Signs will be placed above the recycle bins promoting the mixed recycling.
"It just takes time and effort and starting young to make an impact," Lee said.
Jennifer Van De Wege, student leadership adviser, said the student leaders are surprising her with their ideas and dedication.
"It's amazing what they accomplish," Van De Wege said.
She said their efforts already are making an impact.
"Just across the board, the movement to recycle is running deeper," Van De Wege said. "I almost never see people throwing away paper."
Student Lyndsey Soha wanted to get involved because she realized how much she was wasting when she bought coffee every morning. She saw she could do things differently by reusing a mug and so could others in the school.
"A lot of people don't even have recycling in their common routine here," said student Hannah Stephens. "Maybe all it takes is one high school student standing up and striving to be green."
Stephens said her family has changed their mind-set because of her suggestions. They have reduced their trash usage from three bags to only one every two weeks.
"It's difficult because we didn't grow up recycling. We hope it will trickle up to our parents and family," said student body president Olivia Boots.
"It's difficult to change where we get our resources, like our reliance on coal, ... but Sequim does well. We can influence the peninsula and work together with other schools to make more change."
"We want to have a global impact and that's why we are buying trees in the Amazon," Lee said.
The students are contemplating other methods of spreading the word. Selling homemade organic bracelets was just one of many ideas mentioned.
"Overall, I think Sequim is moving toward a more eco-friendly mind-set," Lee said.
Some eco-friendly foundations already are in place to promote student recycling. The Life Skills class, a hands-on learning environment for special needs students, has been recycling at the high school for five years. A small team of students works with trainers to pick up the entire high school's recycling from cans once a week.
"I think it's excellent that the students are taking pride in their campus, learning a skill, working together and how to follow directions," said Barbara Cooper, a Life Skills teacher.
Rief is part of People First, a self-advocacy group that promotes independence. Students in the group sweep the entire campus once a month to help pick up trash.
Only older and more physically able students are allowed to do the programs. No money comes back
into the programs from
the recycling.
"It's just a service encouraging everyone to think green," said Louise Chitwood, Life Skills teacher.
Maintenance supervisor John McAndie said it will take a joint effort by everyone in the schools to continue the trend in reducing waste.
"Basically, if we make it aware that it can happen, then it will, he said.
"We are all consumers and we have to know how to deal with the product."
