This interdisciplinary program is designed to provide students with an understanding of social, political, and economic change within the Indian context by exploring both the historical and contemporary dynamics of India's colonial past and present frenetic growth. Students consider the most effective transformative tools for India in the 21st century, and examine the notion of "Indian culture" from both anthropological and contemporary Indian political perspectives.
The Field Methods and Ethics course addresses culturally appropriate, ethical field methodology, in preparation for the Independent Study Project (ISP). Study of Hindi opens windows into the culture and the theme of the program.
The following syllabi are either from a recent session of this program or for an upcoming session. Because courses develop and change over time to take advantage of dynamic learning opportunities, actual course content will vary from term to term.
The syllabi can be useful for students, faculty, and study abroad offices in assessing credit transfer. Read more about credit transfer.

There is only one referer and even then it is not to be trusted.
What you get from $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] is all there is.

Liverpool won their second consecutive match with a 3-0 thrashing of Sunderland tonight at Anfield. A brace from Luis Suarez, who assisted on the opening goal as well, led the way for the Reds.
Sunderland started the match well but the tide began to turn in the 12th minute when the Reds got their first really good chance of the game. Luis Suarez was taken down in a dangerous position by Matthew Kilgallon. The subsequent free kick by Stewart Downing was pushed away at the last moment by a diving Simon Mignolet.
The goals would come though for Liverpool.
In the 18th minute, Suarez made a ridiculously good pass from the midfield in to the path of Raheem Sterling who had to wait a second or two for the ball to stop bouncing before chipping the ball over Mignolet. The Sunderland keeper had come off his line trying to reduce the target options Sterling had but the youngster calmly hit the ball right over his head to give Liverpool the 1-0 lead.
Suarez was at it again in the 26th minute counter attacking down the right wing. Sunderland defender Carlos Cuellar tried to foul Suarez and did, sort of, as the referee played advantage after Cuellar tripped over himself and Suarez stayed on his feet. The striker ignored Jordan Henderson who was set-up in the box and beat Mignolet between his legs to make it 2-0.
Sunderland wasted a couple chances to get back in the match including a golden opportunity after a free kick in the 34th minute. The initial effort hit off the wall but the rebound was sent to the far post where Steven Fletcher's header was parried away by Pepe Reina. James McClean had wasted a great chance of his own a few minutes earlier, sending his shot from close ranger just wide of the post.
The Black Cats' misery continued in the second half.
In the 52nd minute Steven Gerrard made a 60+ yard laser beam pass to Suarez's foot as he raced in to the Sunderland box. Suarez made one quick touch to settle the ball and beat Mignolet with a low shot. A lovely finish but the fact that two Black Cats defenders were beaten by a pass that originated by just outside the Liverpool defensive third is quite shameful.
Liverpool put the ball in the back of the net twice more, courtesy of Glen Johnson and Joe Allen, but both times the assistant referee had their flag up. Basically it was not a good day for Sunderland.

Derek will be at the Natural History Museum in London with Evolutionary Biologist Dr George Beccaloni. We find out how companies can reduce their environmental footprint - and save money - by simply being greener. And cattle, T.B. and badgers: how celebrities have banded together to record a single opposing what they describe as ineffective culling...
Dr. Richard Collins arriving at the BBC Studios in London, ahead of this afternoon's Mooney Goes Wild programme
As you may know, this week we launched our FUEL YOUR SCHOOL competition in conjunction with Electric Ireland and Greenstar - where four primary schools (one from each province) can each win a year's worth of electricity to the value of €5000.
All you have to do is tell us in no more than 400 words what YOUR school has been doing to help the environment. The email address is firstname.lastname@example.com; the closing date is Wednesday, September 11th 2013.
Also this week, RTÉ produced a report showing how it has managed to save €700,000 by implementing some waste-reducing schemes.
So when Miriam O'Callaghan brings her empty bottle to the bottle bank, when Ryan Tubridy prints double-sided running orders and when Joe Duffy recycles his newspapers - it all contributes to savings for the organisation.
And we're not just patting ourselves on the back here, there is a lesson to be learned for other companies in how to save money by being simply 'greener'.
The waste from all the RTÉ buildings eventually goes to an area at the back of the campus where it is all processed - and it is to there we go live, and to Eanna Ni Lamhna!
The report was published by RTÉ, in conjunction with the Environmental Protection Agency and Greenstar; click here to read the full report. And for more details about the Fuel Your School competition, click here.
To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the death of Alfred Russel Wallace (on November 7th 1913) and to discover more about this extraordinary man, Derek Mooney and Dr. Richard Collins visit the Natural History Museum in London. There they talk to entomologist and evolutionary biologist Dr. George Beccaloni. Alfred Russel Wallace, independently of Charles Darwin, proposed the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection, and he was considered the 19th century's leading expert on the geographical distribution of animal species - he's sometimes called the "father of biogeography".

Dr. Beccaloni is also the co-author of Natural Selection And Beyond: The Intellectual Legacy Of Alfred Russel Wallace, which is published by Oxford University Press. The ISBN is 978-0-19-923917-7 and the RRP is £18.99.

In an effort to control the spread of Bovine TB in England, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) have initiated a badger cull in Somerset and Gloucestershire. Reports claim that bovine TB cost the British taxpayer approximately £100 million in 2012 and that could cost £1billion over the next decade. DEFRA claim that "No other country has successfully tackled bovine TB without addressing infection in both wildlife and cattle". 5,000 badgers are expected to be killed in controlled shootings over a six week period.
Naturalist, author and presenter of BBC SpringWatch and AutumnWatch, Chris Packham, tells Derek why he objects to the cull...
So what's the situation in Ireland. How many badgers are there, what scientific studies on TB have been undertaken, and most importantly, is there any chance that the problem could be completely eradicated from the country?
Our reporter, Terry Flanagan, met up with Professor Tom Hayden of UCD to find out more...
Hedgerows and the Law
Hedgerows in Ireland form important features in maintaining wildlife diversity and in establishing wildlife "corridors", particularly for birds. The commonest nesting birds found in hedgerows such as wrens, dunnocks, robin and willow warblers depend entirely on insects during the Summer months. In general untrimmed, thorned hedgerows containing species such as blackthorn, whitethorn and holly are favoured by birds as they provide ample food and also serve as a protection against predators.
Section 40 of the Wildlife Act, 1976, as amended by Section 46 of the 2000 Act, provides protection for hedgerows by providing that it shall be an offence for a person to cut, grub, burn or otherwise destroy hedgerows on uncultivated land during the nesting season from 1 March to 31 August, subject to certain exceptions. It is important that, where possible, necessary work to hedgerows is carried out outside this period.
It is possible in most cases to schedule and carry out necessary work to hedgerows outside this period. The legislation makes provision for works (other than road or other construction works) to be carried out for reasons of public health and safety under the authority of any Minister or a body established by statute that lead to the destruction of vegetation. There is also a provision to enable the Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local Government to request from the relevant Minister or body details of any such works together with a statement of the public health and safety factors involved.
It shall not be an offence to destroy vegetation in the ordinary course of agriculture or forestry. Also it shall not be illegal to destroy vegetation while preparing or clearing a site for lawful building or construction works.
It is the policy of the Minister to prosecute for offences under section 40 of the Wildlife Acts 1976 and 2000 and successful prosecutions have been taken under this section in recent years. Members of the public are encouraged to contact their local wildlife ranger and report instances where hedgerows are being destroyed during the prohibited period.

been waiting awhile to try this, maybe the price tag has kept me from it. also not sure what to expect from the style, an uncommon blend to say the least. pale blonde beer, honey hued, heady ad clean, white dressed lace, looking real good. the nose on it is more tripel than lambic, with a rounder body for its looks, a vein of sweetness running through it, and the classic belgian fruity ester aroma, albeit rather soft and delicate. the lambic part is real subtle, just a hint of that oaky lactic funk, less sourness or real old world wheat malt base, elegant. the flavor is as danced as the nose, with much more of the lambic in the finish, the acidity cuts the sweetness of the tripel perfectly, and a harmonious balance is found about mid palate. carbonation is awesomely bright, refreshing as they come, and the lack of super heavy belgian yeast in here makes it a little more tidy to drink. also, the lack of real strong tripel norm alcohol content makes this a bit more drinkable too, too easy in fact. as a sour or wild ale, this leave a little to be desired on a bacterial level, but as a beer, especially as a unique one, its wholly satisfying. i wish it cost about 5 bucks less a bottle, but i certainly appreciate the process and the blending here. expertly done.

(on tap at Belgian Cafe - served in a tulip)
A: very cloudy, honey-colored liquid.... no head, surface foam, or lace... about right for a gueuze, but not for a tripel... a little disappointing
S: smells pretty much like what it's a blend of: a tripel and a gueuze... fairly assertive malt, faint caramel, with the subtle floral alcohol of a tripel.... distant, fragrant, navel-orange citrus in the background - adds a touch of brightness to the aromas, but doesn't enhance the otherwise weak intensity of them
T: the funk comes through a good bit more in the taste, however, this is still, at the very least, dominated by the malt and floral notes from the tripel.... honey-ish, cereal flavors from the malt... tiny, vaguely 'yellow' grapefruit tart/tang in the aftertaste - not much gueuze coming through - whatever portion of it that is blended in merely serves to provide a subtle accent to the overall flavor... I'd stop short of saying it adds 'complexity' as the beer, in total, has a fairly messy, amateur composition (or perhaps has experienced degradation from poor handling?)
M: moderately soft and smooth up front... good bit of the roundish, delicate viscosity retained from the tripel... long finish, ultimately ending dry.... mild, citrus-juicy, acidic film left over on the palate... perhaps this is how it's supposed to be - kinda flat - clean, but flat
O: this might have been a more dynamic, more interesting beer had the base tripel been better and the blend showcasing more of the gueuze... gonna hesitate to recommend this to customers

Enjoyed on tap at Bier Station. Poured into a flared Belgian tulip glass.
Appearance - Body pours a sunny golden orange with hints of amber and and straw. Atop the body sits a one-finger head of soapy white foam. The head dissipates after a minute or so, leaving a thin rim of foam around the edge of the glass and no lacing or film to speak of. Swirling coaxes out hints of a decent amount of carbonation, which also vanishes after a few moments.
Smell - Some faint tart funk along with a fruity phenolic spicy element from the Belgian yeast in the tripel. I honestly expected there to be more suggestion of sourness, given that this is half Boon lambic. There is also a bit of sweetness to the smell that defies the more acidic elements you might expect from the lambic. The fruit brings to mind notes of lemon zest and and pear.
Taste - An interesting blend of traditional tripel and lambic elements. Bright and just a hint of tart that provides an essence of ripe green apple and peach cobbler, along with a bready, sweet underlying element from the yeast and alcohol. No heat to speak of, but this is only a 7% beer, so that is to be expected. On the finish, there is just a hint of wet hay, but for the most part, this strikes me as a tripel with funky leanings. I can't help but wonder if the blend would benefit from a higher percentage of the lambic.
Mouthfeel - Medium-bodied and low-moderate carbonation. Finish is slightly sweet with no bitter aftertaste. Very easy drinking with a slightly juicy element.
Overall, an interesting beer, and good, but probably one I'm more than satisfied having the one glass. Good thing too, as the keg was killed while I was here tonight. Not sure when I'll see it again, in bottle or on tap.

Picked this up at a great little beer store in Arlon, Belgium, Miorge Mihoublon. Hazy yellow-orange pour with a one finger white head that fades quickly with nice lacing. The nose is complex and really nice. Hints of Belgian yeast and grass along with some subtle barnyard, pears, lemon, and white pepper. The taste follows suit with lots of citrus notes along with hints of yeast, lemon zest, subtle vinegar, barnyard, grass, and pear. The mouthfeel is tart, fizzy, and crisp with great balance and a refreshing champagne-like finish. Overall, this was a pleasant surprise. Reminded me of the 2013 Zwanze.

Cloudy, nearly opaque orange brew beneath a thin (1/2 finger) fizzy white head which quickly fades. Small lines of lacing.
Immediate tart notes in the nose, with a backing of Belgian yeast. There's a dry, champagne-like quality mixed with a light citrus smell that one expects of a Tripel. Definite Gueze-like funkiness, as well. Intriguing aroma, very complex.
Slightly sour and funky up front, while the Tripel brings up the rear with Belgian yeast and candi sugar. Soft fruit notes: pear, banana, lemon.
Pretty big sting to this beer, and a pretty full feel overall. Not too easy to savor this one in the mouth for long. Sticky resiliency.
This is an interesting blend of styles that seem fairly complementary. It doesn't make for the best of either world, though. It's worth a try, and it's certainly interesting, but if I'm in the mood for a Tripel, I'm going to grab a traditional Tripel.

For the first time in sports history, an active professional male athlete in a major American sports league has come out as gay.
Jason Collins is an NBA veteran. He's played for six professional teams in 12 seasons, and Monday, in a Sports Illustrated article, he announced to the world that he's gay.
Former beloved Blazer Martell Webster says his fellow Washington Wizards teammate has his full and unwavering support.
Webster says he had no idea Collins was planning to announce he was gay, but had heard that a big announcement was about to be made.
He didn't know who it was involving, or what it was about, but when he saw Collins' story break on ESPN, he felt nothing but proud.
"You know, he wasn't worrying about what the response going to be. He said 'This is me. This is Jason Collins. I'm a black male and I'm gay.' I definitely commend him for that," said Webster.
"You love who you want to love, and you love them with all your heart. I'm happy for him, and I'm there to support it."
Webster says he knows there's bound to be backlash from Collins' jaw-dropping announcement, but points out it's nothing the league can't handle.
"When we first integrated ... in professional leagues, it was a problem, but look what happened. We all adjusted, and everyone is in favor of it. I think eventually everyone will be in favor of this, too," said Webster.
Webster says he knows Collins isn't looking to be a martyr and isn't looking for all of the attention, but is proud of the path his teammate is paving for other athletes who may be just like him.
"The fact is that we are in position now to start embracing people as they are, and that's completely in all capitals, love. That's love," said Webster.

The price of the spot turmeric increased by Rs 200 per quintal. "The arrival of turmeric increased to 4,800 bags on Wednesday, as usual the stockists alone purchased the turmeric by quoting a higher price. The prices in Erode and Gobichettipalayam Cooperative marketing Societies decreased by Rs 150 a quintal due to quality," said Mr R.K.V. Ravishankar, President, Erode Turmeric Merchants Association.
He said, "This is the first time in the history of the century-old turmeric market at Erode that the stockists have purchased about 80 per cent of the total arrival. So far 50 lakh bags (each bag is 75-kg) were sold in the market of which more than 35 lakh bags were procured by the stockists."
Some farmers said that because of Aadi Ammavasai they brought huge stocks and for the same reason the stockists also purchased 80 per cent of the arrived stocks. The traders said that certainly the prices will go down, so they have not purchased the crop now. At the Erode Turmeric Merchants Association Sales yard, the finger variety was sold at Rs 3,119 to Rs 5,319 a quintal, root variety Rs 3,111 to Rs 5,017 a quintal.

Remember this summer when we were all giddy about the prospect this team? It was the deepest, most talented roster than Ainge had put together in the Big Three era. With its mixture of cagey veterans, young versatile talent, and Rajon Rondo, the sky was the limit. Unfortunately, the season was derailed by unexpected injuries and longer-than-expected chemistry to brew. The team was under .500. Garnett hinted at retirement. People started clamoring for Danny to blow it up. Better to get some value back on these investments, right?
But nothing really happened (outside of landing the instant offense of Jordan Crawford for Barbosa's torn ACL and so far signing Terrence Williams to a ten-day).
Like a good GM, Ainge looked under every rock. By all accounts, Danny made calls and took calls from everyone. Maybe he was never truly faced with the decision to either re-tool the team for a championship run this season vs. scrapping the plan and bringing in a new generation of Celtics. We'll never know. In a couple of years, there will be the regret mongers that will troll the fan forums with "WE COULD HAVE HAD ERIC BLEDSOE, DEANDRE JORDAN, AND JOSH SMITH!!!," but we don't know what the future holds. Even with those players, that doesn't guarantee anything. Just as McHale quipped earlier this week, "I've never seen Cap Room score a bucket," Up Side has never won a championship. And maybe it's just me, but the biggest proponents to getting rid of Pierce and Garnett always seemed like ring collectors to me, people who cared more about the champagne than the blood, sweat, and tears. There will be other trade deadlines, other drafts, other summer moves, and other training camps. We can have this argument all over again and again and again.
But for the faithful who still believe in this team now, we still have KG and we still have The Captain. I can't imagine this team without them. We'll go into the final third of the season and the playoffs with a fractured rotation that doesn't include Rondo, Sullinger, and Barbosa, but we'll have that championship swagger that comes with Garnett and Pierce. The fight in the dog will always be bigger than the dog in the fight with our current roster and although that may not be comforting for those of you hoping for post-season success, understand that this roster was always meant for a 2-3 year window. Maybe Danny didn't make any sweeping changes to the roster, but that doesn't mean the team isn't "rebuilding." On the contrary, we've already seen vast improvements this year that will help next year: Jeff Green has found his confidence, Courtney Lee got his groove back, and Avery Bradley has regained his form after his shoulder surgeries.
I might be in the minority here, but I think this team could shock the Heat and the Knicks in the first round. If the standings don't change and we finish as a 7th or 8th seed, I'd love to draw Miami or New York. In a seven game series with no back-to-backs, there's no doubt in my mind that the Celtics could win a bar fight against these two teams.
To borrow a popular phrase from trade season: who says no?

One man has been arrested in the burglary of a business in Lehigh Acres. The suspect was caught on the victim's surveillance cameras and a detective recognized him as a suspect in a similar crime.
AI Industrial, a family owned business in Lehigh Acres, just got cleaned out by thieves driving a U-Haul.
"They stole from my family. That makes me really mad," said owner Eric Graves.
Graves stopped by his business and discovered the crime.
"I showed up to get some materials and supplies and noticed that the back had been opened," said Graves.
Tools and equipment wroth between $5,000 and $10,000 were stolen.
Once he realized he'd been hit Graves went straight to his surveillance cameras. The system captured it all.
After one of the burglars got in, you can see him going through the gate and opening it for the U-Haul to pull in.
After several minutes of loading up Graves' livelihood, the crooks got in back in the moving truck and it drove away.
"It slows me down. Now I've got to save up money for a generator or welder. I've got to replace this. The cost is phenomenal," said Graves.
He turned his video over to the Lee County Sheriff's Office, where a detective immediately recognized one of the men as Sergio Williams.
"The detectives recognized the suspect from a previous case that he'd been working on and was able to identify him that way," said Sergeant David Velez.
The suspect also used a U-Haul in that burglary. And deputies say Williams was the only person who rented a 10-foot truck around the time of the burglary.
Williams was arrested for burglary.
Investigators are still searching for the other men in the video.

I agree. A more sensible solution would be to mandate that the infringing website be changed to say "the GW1000 product relies on technology stolen from Equustek . To buy the original product, visit Equustek " Make them put up a link to the original product.
Order that the defendants pay for the hosting for 100 years or whatever.

In the book, it's not just that Han shoots first.
(Yes, there's a book.)
It's that every single person in the bar except Greedo knew that it was a Bad Idea to let Han get his hands under the table. They even started moving out of the blast zone, smirking.
Han's a tough motherfucker, and Greedo was fucked the moment he signed on for credits. He's a survivor, and the only reason Luke and Obi-Wan lived is because Han is one of the only pilots to enter hyperspace with his shields on. (Costing excess fuel and a minor environmental problem.)
Look at the ambush with Vader at Bespin -- Han doesn't shoot a look at Leia, no one-liners, neither a "you asshole!" to Lando nor a "it's a trap!", he just pulls out his blaster and starts blasting. Every shot is dead center, and it costs Vader something like FOUR force points to survive the attack.
I'm an EE. If the grid goes down and I've got carte blanche, I could get some semblance of electricity up and running in under a week. (Which would enable you to plug in your standard appliances.) I could get solar USB chargers working in the same time frame.

Deafness used to run in my family.
My cousin is stone deaf. There's a genetic thing on the women's side where sometimes the flap covering the semicircular window in the ear just doesn't fall off. This causes the hairs in the cochlea to atrophy and die, and cause permanent uncurable deafness.
Modern testing and surgery has made this a thing of the past. A quick test as a newborn checks for this via echo and a minor outpatient surgery is all it takes.
Fuck deafness. Sneak up behind it with a marching band and stab it in the neck.
Indeed. PLCs.NET has been great for my work in PLCs.

They've all but stopped production. My guess is that there are far too many LCD panels sitting in warehouses to change the tech to OLED.

It's like... if someone breaks into my house looking for money and valuables, I'll hand out flashlights, turn on the lights, and we'll all look together.
My CC is maxed, my LOC is full, my mortgage is full, and my savings are nil. Nothing like getting laid off just after finishing up a divorce.
I can report the IMEI number to my provider if I really want to brick it. I have a hunch that a portion of these "mysterious black man stole mah phones!" are people that dropped them and just want to get a new one on their insurance.
I believe that they get stolen, sure, but at least 10% are mishaps.
And that checkbox is useless because there are perfectly valid reasons why you want to install apps not from Google Play - Amazon App Store, and Humble Bundle, for instance. Legit app stores, but by using them you have to disable one of the most powerful protections Android has.
Don't forget AdBlock. You have to allow every library on earth to install AdBlock for Android.
I don't understand why we have to allow every ppa one at a time to install unverified code on Linux, but for Android the choice is "play in the sandbox" or "everyone on earth is allowed on your phone... er, their phone."

It's the "I know what I'm doing" area. Once you get to about 100 jumps, 100 dives, then you think you're getting the hang of it and you know what the risks are and that you can mitigate them.
If you live through that 100-200 Dead Man's Area, then you'll realize that you have no idea what's going on and reign it in effectively.
Pound for pound, the amoeba is the most vicious animal on earth.

HUTCHINSON, KANSAS -- A new attraction is coming to the Kansas Underground Salt Museum next month. Well, they actually just changed their name to "Strataca" in June.
Tourists will be able to go down 65 stories and walk through parts of a mine that have been off limits for decades.
It's called "the Salt Safari".
This group of 20-hikers got a chance to trek through miles of tunnels-- exploring a mine closed nearly 60-years-ago.
Piles of contaminated salt, dynamite boxes, and trash left behind by hundreds of miners are availble to see....if not touch.
There are some restrictions to the three-hour salt safari: you have to be 18-years-old or older... and be physically fit...and not afraid of 650 feet underground.

Kartta ja saapumisohjeet

You never know what?s going to happen here as no two days are alike. People tend to stay at El Misti longer than they?ve planned and there?s no one to blame save for the sheer physical beauty of Rio as well as the atmosphere offered here at our hostel. El Misti is located in the centralized neighborhood of Botafogo, a short walk from beautiful Botafogo Beach as well as the world famous Sugarloaf mountain with it?s sky tram transport and sweeping views of Rio. Botafogo is filled with all that makes up the life of `Cariocas? (or natives of Rio), -- Sidewalk bars, restaurants, elderly men playing cards while kids kick the ever present football through alleys. Here in Botafogo you?ll find a buzz of life coexisting with a mellow local feel. We are to be found in the middle of the metropolitan paradise that is Rio, on a small, enclosed, safe, and quiet side street just 100 meters from the Botafogo subway station. Banks and supermarkets are in quick walking distance and the most famous beaches in the world (Copacabana and Ipanema) are reached by a five minute bus ride. El Misti offers shared dorm beds or private rooms in an affordable, clean, and comfortable atmosphere.

It is our pleasure to make the traveler feel oriented with Rio by offering innumerable tips for exploring the most beautiful city in the world. When arriving to Rio, whether by bus or plane, we offer free pick up service and bring you straight to our little universe here at El Misti. By far the biggest attraction of the year is of couse fabled Carnaval in Rio, the planet?s biggest, baddest, and wildest annual party. Due to international demand it is extremely difficult to secure accomadation in Rio during Carnaval and thus is highly recommended to make reservations in advance. We offer 7 day Carnaval packages as well as tickets for the world famous samba parades at the local ?Sambadrome`. Don?t miss out on the most stimulating celebration the world over-- book your bed as soon as possible as there are still a few spots left.

Luckily, public is smart enough
Editor, The News:
Re: Trustees see $10 million shortfall The News, Feb. 19)
Tom Fletcher's column and MLA Marc Dalton's comments in the Feb. 19 edition of the paper once again demonstrate the Liberal strategy of attempting to use deceitful tactics to try and distract the public from gross Liberal mismanagement.
The language used by these two gentlemen would in fact be fit for a late night sketch comedy if the reality weren't so tragic to the students of this province.
By using inflammatory words like "political propaganda," "indoctrinated," "strong-arming," "conspired," "war-weary," and "conspiracy theory" to try and discredit teachers and their actions – and by using phrases like, " ... returning the class size language will cost $1 billion, the province is not in a position to pay, the Learning Improvement Fund is $250 million, and the Liberals philosophical belief that class sizes shouldn't be at the bargaining table" – to inaccurately spin Justice Griffin's court ruling demonstrates the Liberals continued use of misdirection and rhetoric to score political points without basis in fact.
Fortunately, the majority of the public is smart enough to look beyond these feeble attempts at swaying their beliefs and see the truth.
In fact, some folks might reread many of those words and think that Mr. Fletcher was actually speaking about the Liberal party itself.
Justice Griffin did.

— The recent deaths of two paramedics here has Emergency Medical Service providers hoping that motorists will learn from the tragedy and keep a watchful eye out for emergency vehicles. They're hoping the loss of their brethren will at least serve as a wake up call.
Timothy McCormick, 24, and Cody Medley, 22, died a week ago when their ambulance was struck by a vehicle driven by Jade Hammer, 21. The ambulance was not on an emergency run at the time of the accident.
The crash is still under investigation, but as of press time, Hammer had not been charged.
Carl Rochelle, a Plainfield resident and paramedic for 16 years in Indianapolis, says distracted driving is as bad as ever. He said motorists need to put down their phones, turn down the stereos, and focus on what's going on around them. Indiana Code 9.21.8 sets the standard for yielding the right of way to emergency vehicles.
Rochelle said the distracted driving of other motorists is the biggest hindrance for emergency crews.
"Children, grocery lists, phones, stereos, limiting those on the front side help make more attentive drivers and actually decrease the amount of runs we respond to," he said. "I've actually seen people texting while I'm making an emergency response."
Rochelle said one thing that contributes to distracted driving but doesn't get much publicity is in-car noise.
"Manufacturers over the last 10 to 15 years have made cars more aerodynamic and sound resistant so you can enjoy your stereo and cell phone conversation," he said. "As they work to trap inside noise and prevent outside noise from coming in, people aren't seeing sirens or lights until it's within 40 to 50 feet of them."
He said the optimal response is for motorists to veer to the right to let emergency vehicles pass. Even when that's not possible, he said, motorists should still know how to act.
"We see a lot of hard stops when we're responding, cars that all the sudden see us in their mirror and hit the brakes," he said. "That's not good. It causes us to have to take maneuvers to avoid an accident. Don't move into an intersection. We will always try to pass on the left hand side of traffic.
"When it's safe, we'll move to the opposite side of the roadway, taking advantage if one exists. At an intersection, we'll drop our sirens. We don't want to put people into harm's way by pushing them through an intersection. At that point, if they're unable to move to the right, staying where they are is better than pulling into an intersection."
Emergency runs, he reminds, can be a matter of life or death.
"Seconds do count, especially when you're talking about cardiac arrests in particular, being able to return circulation (to the patient) and deliver life saving defibrillation or medications," Rochelle said. "Seconds do make the difference also with folks that would be suffering a major traumatic injury and getting them to more definitive care."
He said anyone can be guilty of distracted driving, but it is generally more of a problem with younger motorists.
"It's more of a problem amongst teens," he said. "They don't have the driving experience behind them that they need to look up and check traffic. If we look at (distracted driving), it's not just texting, it's general cell phone use. You're tying up a hand. Your mind is distracted."
He reminds all motorists to also watch for emergency vehicles that are stopped.
"We often have runs where we have to park in the street," he said. "We're on the shoulder, but we have a few lanes of traffic. Drop the speed and move away. Being aware of the fact that there's a stopped emergency vehicle would be very helpful."

About half a dozen sharks were swarming in Kaneohe Bay Sunday morning.
Long-time diver and Kaneohe resident, Dick Van Horn caught them splashing around on video, just 50 feet from shore. He said they were tiger sharks, about 6-8 feet long.
"You see a shark typically grab something and then wrench to get a chunk out and it looks like that's what he was doing," Van Horn said. "There was kind of a spot, a muddy spot that was kind of oily, it looked like. there was a sheen on the water. and they were kind of circling that and kind of attacking it."
He said he notified authorities and Waterfront Operations from Marine Corps Base Hawaii immediately sent out a boat to warn everyone.

Prior to his weekly chat on NFL.com, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell had this to say about the death of Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry.
Before we get started, I want to say we are greatly saddened by today's tragic news about the loss of Chris Henry. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Chris's family, including his Bengals family. We have been in contact with the Bengals to offer our support through this difficult time.
In light of this tragedy, it's difficult to focus on football right, but we scheduled this chat and we will carry on. It's been a great season so far and there is still a lot more football to be played, including the playoffs, the most wonderful time of the year, some would say. There are 24 teams still in contention for the Super Bowl and for the first time in NFL history we have two 13-0 teams. Congrats to the Colts and Saints. We appreciate all of your interest in and passion for the NFL.
I ask you to keep Chris Henry and his family in your thoughts today, and now I'll take as many of your questions as I can. I'm looking forwards to learning what's on your minds.

Poured from a brown 12.7 oz. bottle. Has a light golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of grains, actually a bit skunky. Taste is grains, mild hops, a bit of malts, refreshing but not exactly flavorful. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is OK, but nothing special.

Kinda liked this one,the guy at the beer store said the bottle was sitting there for awhile but it held up great.Real hazy-orange color with a good head,smelled fresh and citriusy,body was a little thin to me for the style.Refreshing taste with some citrius-yeast note very easy to drink.I also think this would be a good warm weather ale.

Appearance Light orange in color with a bit of sediment and a decent head.
Smell This aroma is light, but its definitely filled with citrus orangey hops. Theres also a nice, firm, sugary malt base. Not bad.
Taste This one crashed and burned at the taste. The malt structure fell apart, creating an absence of finish. This left the cheap flavors exposed (see below).
Mouthfeel This one was strung out and flat, which made the flavors that much worst. It went from looking and smelling good to total disappointment.
Drinkability I was able to finish this one, but it was very unpleasant and I will definitely not buy again.

There is a thin, white head on this hazy gold beer. I can not stand the smell. It is awful. If smells like an awful potpourri of old diaper, band-aids, B.O., and general assiness. Terrible.
I taste, expecting maybe this sampole is spoiled, but it doesn't really seem so. I just get slightly skunky, old, noble hops, booze, soapiness, and a cracked grain finish. It's not doin much for me really and that smell is just horrendous. Drainpour.

3.6/5 rDev +13.6%
Presentation: 12.7 oz stubby brown bottle with a best before freshness date. Some sediment is noticeable on the bottom of the bottle.
Appearance: Thin white lacing sticks well to the glass. I opted to leave the yeast in the bottle to leave some clarity in this pale golden bubbly brew.
Smell: Light lemony herbal hop, some doughy bread and nutty yeast in the nose.
Taste & Mouth Feel: Nice and neat bottle conditioned smoothness and crispness, fluffy medium body with a pale maltiness and slight buttery diacetyl on the palate. Hops drop a leveled bitterness and lemon / herbal flavor. Yeast is in the back with a fading graininess as well as a slow drying palate.
Drinkability & Notes: A decent pale, thankfully this is unfiltered and bottle conditioned and was able to retain a good amount of character. Not as good as the Sparkling Ale but something Id definitely have again.

Ah, Cooper's Pale. My old adversary. This one has been sitting and stewing for a while, I left it at my girlfriend's place and forgot about it.
*N.B. As this greatly affects the taste and mouthfeel, this bottle-conditioned beer was poured with all yeast sediment into the glass, because that's the way to drink it.
Appearance: Head retention not so good. Nice burnished nebulous hue of deep tangerine. Lacing's there too. Interesting cirro-stratus patterns on the headless surface.
Smell: Hard to put my finger on. Sounds funny but bubblegum is the first that comes to mind. Maybe some cereal grains. Possibly stone fruit - peach and maybe plum. Several things I haven't noticed before. Each bottle is substantially different - this one smells good!
Taste: Put against the floral EPAs like Landlord, James Squire Golden Ale and Mountain Goat Sparkling, it's not great, but it's satisfying in its own robust way. Bitter, real English-tasting hops, who knows what they are, though appropriately aleish. Tangy, ashy (possibly imparted by the flocculent yeast). Surprisingly lemony on the palate - this beer would meld better with a lemon in the neck than Corona, but I wouldn't be seen dead with a lemon in the neck of my beer! Besides, I'd be drinking it from a glass. How are you supposed to drink a beer with a lemon in its neck anyway?
Mouthfeel: A bit lightweight but OK. Nothing too distracting, and very like any other ale of this style.
Drinkability: Fairly light but dare I say it a little too bland for all-night consumption. But you could do worse, especially in Australia, the land that beer forgot (but is beginning to remember).
Good one.

Huh. Not impressed. This was my first from coopers and I'd be hard-pressed to pick up another of their brews, especially at the price I paid.
Poured from a bottle into a pilsner glass; palish, orangish bland straw...stuff.
Very average aroma and less than average flavor. Felt okay on the toungue and I could drink a few of 'em if I was just in the mood to get a buzz, but definitely wouldn't do so just for the taste.
Very unremarkable beer. It'll sit in the back of my fridge for a good long wile. Maybe I'll use it to steep some brats in. That might be something...

Yuck. I like pale ales, I like blond ales, and I even like unfiltered/bottle conditioned ales (i.e. AleSmith Extra Pale). This beer tastes like none of the above. Its almost as if it was pre-skunked. Pours cloudy copper with plenty of floaties. Stinky nose of sour fruit and malt. Dry, harsh grainy taste with fruity hops that I can't quite place. Sour, not bitter, aftertaste. Keep this down-under, mate.

As one of my staples in the realm of my homeland, I was reluctant look this up to see the reviews it had received, but looking at the others results, I think most people have a very accurate idea about what this beer is all about.
It appears nice with a tiny bit of sediment which adds to the flavour.
It smells like a yeasty pale ale should, and tastes very similar. On the palate its a thirst quenching drink which can be consumed in some quantity.
Overall it is one of the better mass produced Australian beers. If you do plan to come to Australia, this should be a good place to start your tour of what is on offer!

We've got a gusher folks! Yellow appearance and crap in the beer. Not much of a discernable aroma.
Taste was just carbonation and corn. Very light mouthfeel, no hops. Might as well call this Coors Light or Foster's. And its expensive. Forget you! There just wasn't any redeeming quality in this beer.

Hazy yellow (quite light), dark yeasty chunks in the bottle-conditioned style. Decent body in the head. Tangy aroma. Flavor has decent hop/malt balance, mostly a mild flowery hop impression in mid mouth, but far from overpowering. OK beer in most aspects, not complex but with subdued impressions of both malts and hops in the British style. A little chalkiness in the mouth, though.

Appearance: Cloudy golden orange tint with a nice creamy textured white head, no lacing forms on this one. Aroma: A slight citrus note here a bit zesty with deep bready malt tones heavy sediment as well adds to the breadiness I speak of. Taste: A mild biscuit sweetness with some balancing light hops main component here is the yeast and malt tones providing for a bready finish and overall profile in the flavor. Mouthfeel: Somewhat of a residual texture that coats the tongue not bad at all very nice crisp tone brought on by the medium body and mild carbonation. Drinkability: Not crazy but solid ale from Austrailia just glad to see another brand other than Foster's on American shores.

Beer with yellow liquid and with good foaming with good duration. The foam is white and the last drops beer made from this slightly brown foam. Malt aroma. In taste the bitterness of the hops leaving a bitter aftertaste and fast. Light beer good drinkability. Good for summer.

I drank entirely too much of this way back when for a semester so when I saw a single on the shelf at Green's on Ponce I had to pick it up.
Pours a hazy yellow-gold color with a half-finger white head. The head recedes into a patchy layer on top leaving light lacing.
Smells of nondescript light fruits with grainy pale malts and mild leafy hops.
Tastes similar to how it smells however the malts hold a bit more sway. Rustic pale malt flavors up front with leafy hop flavors joining in shortly. Midway through the sip hints of nondescript light fruit make an appearance. A solidly bitter ending finishes things off.
Mouthfeel is good. It's got a moderate thickness with smooth carbonation.
Drinkability is good. Call me biased but I could have a few of these.
Overall I remember it being more flavorful when I was halfway around the world and I'm sure it loses at least a little bit of flavor when it's not fresh. Not one to seek out but not a terrible option.

(Served in a short strange) best after 19 may 09
A- This beer has a crystal clear golden yellow with a slight orange hue with the second pour becoming a bit hazy. There is a fizzy white head that soon disappears and a slow carbonation of tiny carbonation.
S- Soft faint pale malt hint with a strange but faint bitter hops.
T- soft green hops note leads to a slightly bigger hop bitterness. The bitterness lingers soft but is bitter like dandelions.
M- This beer has a medium mouthfeel with a tight little fizz finish.
D- There is no depth just a pungent bitterness from the hops and no real malt flavors.

375ml bottle, on the patio at the new Aussie-themed pub on Whyte Avenue.
This beer pours a hazy medium golden yellow colour, with two skinny fingers of weakly puffy, foamy, and somewhat soapy dirty white head, which leaves a little bit of coral reef lace around the glass, as well as some swirling, upwardly mobile visible effervescence.
It smells mildly of pale grainy malt, a hint of stale orchard fruit, and tame herbal, weedy hops. The taste is dry, gritty, and somewhat crackery pale malt, a stoney flintiness, and bitter grassy, weedy, and herbal hops.
The carbonation is rather high, with a tight, almost prickly high palate frothiness, the body a timid medium-light weight, and a bit on the thin side, with little to recommend it as smooth. It finishes quite dry, with a sort of mineral cleanliness.
Not bad, but not really a pale ale in bearing, there's just no sweetness to the malt, and that becomes a drag after a short while. Dryness usually has lots to recommend it, but it must be used much more deftly than it is here. One and done, I'm afraid.

A small store that sells a few different items, among them some Quebec beer. It's located in a busy area that is a bit of a pain to get to, and there isn't much free parking available. I was there on a saturday and i couldn't even find a pay parking spot. Anyways, the store itself is nice inside and their prices seemed reasonable. They don't have a huge selection, maybe 100-120 different beers. They carry Trou Du Diable beers, but they didn't have any in stock. It was the only store in Montreal that I went to that had Hopfenstark in stock though.

Like Goldorak said, this really has a beer boutique feel to it. I think about 90% of the beer is refrigerated which I find awesome.
Parking is a bit difficult but check out the Plaza St-Hubert website for info on the nearby parking lot.
Lots of stuff to try here and I'm not only talking about the beer. All sorts of jams, seasonings, cheese and meat products. You just feel like trying it all. Very knowledgeable staff. Really nice to see ONLY Quebec craft here and I think this is the only store I've noticed this. I don't even think they carry Unibroue. Wish it was bigger. Not the biggest selection but I always find a gem or two.

A tiny nook of a place. If there are more than five people in the store you are jostling for position and looking over each other's shoulders.
That said, what I like about the boutique is that they had mostly single bottles available, they knew their stock and the local beer locales to visit. Also, unlike other micro-centric dépanneurs they didn't waste shelf space with macros or crummy micros.
The prices are comparable to Québec's standards-maybe a titch more.
Handy to Brouhaha and not too far from Peluso.

Went there because I was hunting for "La Buteuse". Sadly, they didn't have it in stock. BUT, at least they knew what the beer was, and they got a batch last week, which was sold out. The woman who served me, which I think is the owner of the place, was kind enough to take my name and number to call me when they will receive the beer. I was very happy since I was looking for that one for ages. That is just fantastic as service go.
As for the prices, someone said it was pretty expensive, but I gotta tell, they are very reasonable when it comes to the pricing. See, beers in Quebec are much more expensive than in the states.
The selection was very good. They had about every microbrews worth checking out in stock from Quebec (they only have quebec beers). I even had the great pleasure to find 2 bottles of Trois Mousquetaires' Porter Baltique batch of 2009 (which is a fantastic brew).
The beers were all in a fridge, so there it goes for quality of storing. Although an opaque front would have been preferred, the only light that got to the bottle was the lighting of the fridge.

This is definately a "boutique" Beer store in a very strange location on tacky St-Hubert, where you can get a cheap second-hand wedding dress, latex boots with matching whip and knockoff fashions. But it's only a block away from Baubien metro, not much of a detour if you're going to Vices & Versa.
It's a small store, so selection is limited, but you only find the cream of the crop here, and is likely to have the limited release Beers hidden in the backstore, so don't hesitate to ask. They seem to have a strict no hoarding policy on these, good for them.
Service was friendly and the guy knew his stuff. Cheeses and other interesting pairings were available.
This may become my favorite local store.

If you are into extremely good Canadian craft beer, this is where you have to go. They're system is very cool in the sense that you buy each beer on an individual basis and they package them up for you, the more you buy the more of a discount you get. I bought twelve brews and it cost my 35$... yeah... its pretty expensive and not something i would do on a regular basis, however the occasional beer haul from this place is well worth its premium price i recommend it to any fellow Montreal residents

This small beer store is wedged in the St-Hubert Plaza, a stretch of stores covering a couple of blocks.
Parking is a bit hard to find because you can only park on one side of the street which means all spots are taken, though each time i went i was able to find a spot (though i never went during peak hours).
The store itself is really worth it. They only have Quebec microbrews, nothing else. They are also one of the first stores to receive new release of beer, some of which are not available everywhere. Selection is great with Charlevoix, Bieropholie, AMB, 3 Mousquetaires, DDC, etc.. They are pretty much all here. It's the perfect place to buy single bottles. I got the Alt from Bieropholie as well as a St-Ambroise Oatmeal Stout. The majority of their beers are refrigerated with 6 & 12 packs available at room temp. They also give you a 10% discount if you buy more than 6 individual beers, a good deal when you want to stock up.
Service is top notch. They are extremely knowledgable, especially Annie, one of the owners. The store being geared principally towards beer, they can answer any questions you might have, they'll be glad to help.
Terroir means products (agricultural or otherwise) associated to a certain rural region (in this case Quebec). That means they also sell spreads, jams and other assorted goodies from around Quebec.
IMO, a must stop place for your bottled needs in Montreal. Easily accessible via Metro if you don't have a car or don't feel like driving.
Highly recommended.

If you have a child or have been paying attention to education news lately, you may have heard the term "common core" being thrown around. What is common core? Common core is a new set of standards designed to make students more college and career ready by the the time they graduate from high school. What makes common core different than many states' previous standards? Among other things, a strong emphasis on technology. When discussing technology in education, I routinely encounter two basic misconceptions:
first, that the students know more than the teachers when it comes to technology.

AMARILLO - Self-confidence is the key to stop bullying according to a local fitness club.
Mixed martial arts is designed to help not only the victims of bullying but the bullies themselves. It's an option many victims of bullying turn to and it's not just about learning to fight.
"Better fitness, better self-defense, and it's helped me become a better person and better discipline," said one MMA student.
But mixed martial arts doesn't only benefit those who get picked on.
" We see two different sides," said Elite MMA & Fitness Owner and Head Coach Jimmy Boyd. "Sometimes we get the bullies and sometimes we get the victims."
Boyd started Elite Fitness about two years ago and he says he's seen the bullied and the bullies grow and mature while taking his classes. Confidence is key, for those insecure enough to pick on others, and those who fall victim to it.
"A lot of people will put their kids in here for discipline reasons and it's good because we provide a lot of structure and discipline to those kids and a lot of self-confidence. Which most people don't realize that a lot of bullies are actually insecure and that's the reason why they bully," said Boyd.
Boyd says classes for all age groups are becoming increasingly popular, even the class full of four and five-year-olds.
Parents of those future ninjas say it's never too early to start boosting your child's self confidence.
"If your children is walking around with confidence, confidence that they're not going to get pushed around, bullies are going to go look for someone else," said Katy Sewell who has a four-year-old son in a class.
Boxing, jui jitsu, muay thai, and wrestling are just a few of the sports that keep a child's head held high and the bullies looking the other way.
Elite MMA & Fitness is offering a free anti-bully seminar Sunday, January 27. Kids ages four to 18 can get a taste of martial arts while learning how to deal with bullies. The Amarillo Bulls players will also be there to help coach.

Matt Schaub has torn ligaments in his injured ankle, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. Schaub may try to play through the injury for the Houston Texans, but according to Rapoport the quarterback might not be "right" at any point this season. The Texans are coming off a bye after starting Case Keenum in place of Schaub in Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Schaub has struggled mightily this season, even before getting hurt. On the year, he has thrown eight touchdowns to nine interceptions. Heading into Week 6 against the St. Louis Rams, he had thrown a pick-six in four consecutive games to set a dubious NFL record.
The Texans have yet to make a decision on a starting quarterback for Week 9 against the Indianapolis Colts. Keenum played fairly well against the Chiefs, going 15-for-25 passing for 271 yards and a touchdown, and might remain behind center. The fact that Schaub is still hobbled (and will be for the rest of the season) may make head coach Gary Kubiak's decision much easier.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A problem is hurting Kentuckiana's most vulnerable. Several babies have been born to mothers who are addicted to heroin.
"It was more powerful than the love I had for my child and no matter how much I wanted to stop how much I knew it was a necessity I couldn't," explained Melissa, a recovering heroin addict.
Melissa's daughter Scarlett was born exposed to heroin. Melissa, is receiving treatment at The Healing Place, a drug addiction recovery center. Scarlett was born with a perforated valve in her heart. She's been placed with a foster family while Melissa seeks treatment.
"Heroin was easier to get, cheaper so that's what I've started using. I won't know until she's older how she was affected by the drug use," Melissa said.
"They're very irritable. They can have a very high pitched uncontrollable cry that you cannot console them," said Pauline Hayes, NICU Clinical Nurse Manager at U of L's Center for Women and Infants. She says the number of babies born exposed to heroin triple in just the past year.
"Heroin is certainly bad because it's unregulated. You don't what you're getting," said Hayes.
Doctors use morphine to wean babies off heroin, or any opiate. The average treatment time in the NICU is 26 to 28 days.
Lindsay Allen asked, "If she were and you find out this woman's been using heroin or whatever you could then treat it while mom is still in pregnancy?"
Hayes says it's possible to treat expectant mothers who have problems with addiction. "That's the best way to do this is to find out what's going on early and to get this mom into treatment," Hayes said.
Hayes is part of a panel whose task is making recommendations on how to combat what has become a statewide epidemic. The panel is pushing for a bill in the legislature that would require mothers to undergo universal drug testing during pregnancy and upon admission to the hospital.
"I just want to be there all the time as she progresses and learns new things and just love her," Melissa said.
"Nobody sets out in the morning to be an addict. They don't go, I think I'll take heroin today. It doesn't happen that way. It's a disease. We're still not quite seeing it that way. We're still seeing it as some kind of failure," said Hayes.
Treating babies affected by heroin use is estimated to cost about $60,000 per patient.

Dear Fly:
or the far-away future:
If I live to be a hundred, I will probably not be as good a tennis player as I am today.
I hope you didn't bet any money on this!
