Blackstone - California - United States - Sonoma Valley
The precise origins of what became known as the Zinfandel grape variety are uncertain, although it has clear genetic equivalents in both Puglia and Croatia. However, when it was brought to the New World in the mid 19th century, it became known as the Zinfandel, and has been consistently popular and widely grown ever since. These very dark and very round grapes have a remarkably high sugar content, resulting in relatively high levels of alcohol in the wines they are made into, with bottles often displaying as much as fifteen percent. What makes the Zinfandel such an interesting grape, though, is the fact that the flavors produced by this varietal vary considerably depending on the climate they are grown in. In cooler valley regions, the Zinfandel grapes result in wines which hold strong flavors of tart and sweet fruits; raspberry, redcurrant and sweet cherry, held in a very smooth and silky liquid. Conversely, warmer regions result in more complex and spicy notes, including anise, pepper and hedgerow berries.
California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.
Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.
Often referred to as the 'birthplace of Californian wines', the beautiful and expansive Sonoma Valley has long been seen as something of a vibrant and beating heart within the American wine industry. The 'valley of the moon', as it is affectionately known, benefits enormously from the blazing Californian sunshine it receives throughout the long, hot and dry summers, and exceptionally warm autumns in which the vast array of grape varietals found there ripen. Sonoma Valley is most famous for big, full-bodied and flavorful red wine grapes, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as many excellent white wine grapes. Due to the volcanic soils of the region, fed by thermal springs packed full of minerals, the soil is wonderfully fertile and capable of supporting a wide variety of grape species.

This dissertation analyzes the role of space-claiming protests by primarily left grassroots social movements in Bolivia's current political transformation. Space claiming includes mass protests that physically control or symbolically claim urban space through occupations of plazas and roads, sit-ins, blockades, and other measures. As a theoretical construct, space claiming brings together tactics of collective action and meanings of public spaces, and looks at the consequences of their interaction. This dissertation is based on ethnographic engagement and oral interviews with protest participants and their state interlocutors during twelve months of fieldwork and archival research. By using detailed ethnographic evidence--of social life as experienced through the human body, the meanings attached to places, and social movement practices--it explains how grassroots movements exerted leverage upon the state through pivotal protest events. This study shows that the political import of these protests arises from their interruption of commercially important flows and appropriation of meaning-laden spaces in cities like Cochabamba and Sucre. Social movements used spatial meanings, protest symbols and rhetoric to build an imagined community of interest and sovereignty, which claims the right to direct the political course of the state. The presence of indigenous bodies, symbols, and politics in these spaces challenged and inverted their longstanding exclusion from power. The largest mobilizations exercised control over aspects of daily life that would otherwise be organized by the state. These interruptions of commerce and circulation, and the collective gatherings that directed them posed an alternate possibility of sovereignty. This put the existing order into question, forcing shifts in political life to resolve the temporary crises. At the same time, the practices of disruption were added to the routines of political practice, making future officeholders even less able to maneuver independently of the grassroots base. This dissertation explains why and how space-claiming protests work as political tools, and the ways that practices of cooperation, coordination, and decisionmaking within protest have become models for Bolivia's political culture. In doing so, it contributes to the study of social protest in Latin America, the theory of social movement practice, and the geographic study of political protest.
The Political Ethics of Intimacy is an ethnographic study of how conservative evangelical ethics are cultivated within religious communities and become linked to political projects. Based on fourteen months of participant observation research in evangelical churches and Bible study groups in Colorado Springs, I argue that evangelical ethical life is modeled on hierarchical relationships defined by gender and symbolized in the patriarchal family. As the heterosexual nuclear family has become both the central metaphor structuring evangelical ethics and the site where lived evangelicalism is practiced, issues perceived as threatening this family structure are seen as threatening to evangelical ethical life. Thus, abortion and gay rights receive continuing political concern by evangelicals, while issues not framed as directly affecting the family receive less political concern. I show how the familial ideals that shape white evangelical ethical and political life are tied to a racial history of seeing the normative, patriarchal family as the moral foundation of the nation, ideas that shaped resistance to racial equality in the United States from debates about abolition to the Civil Rights Movement.
This study explored how transformative effects of an HIV diagnosis inform our sense of place and connectedness to a setting/place attachment and the influence on our use and movement in social space. Using Bourdieu's Sociological perspective I explored the notion of `knowing' or `habitus,' by investigating the nature of a person's position and the conditioning (social learning) of that position which can be viewed as a transformative process that effects, changes, and creates both the position and the conditions that govern practice. Methods: The research included semi structured interviews and (2) focus groups, where one set of groups had the specific objectives of the study disclosed to them, and the researcher surveyed the respondents on the types of questions and information they believed needed to be collected to capture their sense of social space. The final group was presented with the results of the initial group and asked to critique and inform the results. A total of 36 subjects were interviewed or were a part of the focus groups. Using cognitive mapping, I explored the places they frequent, noting physical settings, how these settings were used, evaluated and perceived and how they spent their time. Research findings: The findings reveal themes related to respondents' sense of place and connectedness and their sense of connection to those people and places they deem significant. There are examples of life philosophies that appear connected to positioning and are connected in influential ways to ones sense of `constriction' or `expansion.' When dealing with socially impoverished, isolated men, and their HIV diagnosis, their positioning and conditioning in social space, it appears their `situatedness' directly effects and instructs their `practical sense,' or everyday practices and this allows creative and instructive thinking that transforms their experience of becoming HIV positive into an experience of expansion and growth. Broader, the meanings people attribute to their histories, suggests how one comes to choose, use, and is transformed by the spaces supportive of them, are themselves products of the same cultures and social structures that produce and reproduce the `practical sense' of an agent.
Let be an indefinite rational division quaternion algebra with discriminant d equal to pq where p and q are primes such that p,q > 2 and let pq be a maximal order in . Further, let pq,p2rq2s,r,s ≥ 1 be an order of index p2rq2s in pq with Eichler invariant equal to negative one at p and at q . Finally, let pq,p2rq2s1 be the cocompact Fuchsian group given as the group of units of norm one in pq,p2rq2s. Using the classical Selberg trace formula, we show that the positive Laplace eigenvalues, including multiplicities, for Maass forms on pq,p2rq2s1 coincide with the Laplace spectrum for Maass newforms defined on the Hecke congruence group Γ0(M) where, M, the level of the congruence group, is equal to p2r+1q2s+1, i.e., the discriminant of pq,p2rq2s.
The present study examined how the relationship between child temperament and behavior is expressed in different types of classroom environments in prekindergarten settings. Other goals of the study were to further operationalize the goodness of fit model in school settings and to evaluate possible interactions of process variables indicative of classroom quality with child temperament to see if these interactions predicted child behavior and social skills. Participants included 130 students and their teachers (N = 11) in three prekindergarten settings. Child temperament was measured using the Total Temperament score from the Teacher and Caregiver Temperament Inventory for Children (TACTIC; Billman & McDevitt, 1998). Classroom quality and environment characteristics were measured using the Program Structure scale of the Early Childhood Environment Rating Scales-Revised (ECERS-R; Harms et al., 2005) and the Sensitivity subscale score from the Caregiver Interaction Scale (CIS; Arnett, 1989). Outcomes in behavioral and social domains were measured using the Externalizing Behavior Problems and Social Skills subscales on the Preschool and Kindergarten Behavior Scales- Second Edition (PKBS-2; Merrell, 2002). Hierarchical linear modeling indicated that child temperament alone was the sole predictor of child externalizing behavior, while child temperament, disability status, and school program structure predicted child social skills. Overall, the study indicated that the goodness of fit model when operationalized in terms of the transactional relationship between temperament and environmental demand factors of characteristics of the classroom setting (as informed by the classroom quality literature) has predictive value and describes child behavioral and social outcomes in prekindergarten settings.
Pilgrimages to the Past draws from recent scholarship on autobiography, memory, and trauma, while attending to the historical and ethnic specificities of each text. Extending beyond an inquiry into how autobiographical narratives evoke place and how they present the interplay between location and remembering, my dissertation aims to show that the autobiographical impulse, or the desire to tell one's life story, is intimately bound with specific locations that inspire and facilitate remembering. Return lends the past new urgency and propels its narrative reconstruction. An important concept in this project is the dialogic dimension of the homonym routes/roots, which Susan Stanford Friedman sees as integral to processes of identity formation in an age of increased mobility. This analysis of the recuperative potentialities and reparative limits of return seeks to explore place as identity's foundational and transformational site. Going back affirms the returnees' connection to places from the past; at the same time, return changes how they perceive and inhabit their location in the present. Although returns are retrospectively oriented, they propel a prospective engagement with the past that both acknowledges its relevance and accepts its irretrievability. Insofar as visiting places of ancestral or personal significance ultimately leads to an incorporative separation from the past, Pilgrimages to the Past posits that journeys of return are, in fact, journeys of departure that result in the returnee's turn towards present and future. The diasporic quest for origins organizes Eva Hoffman's After Such Knowledge: Memory, History, and the Legacy of the Holocaust (2004) and Daniel Mendelsohn's The Lost: A Search for Six of Six Million (2006). In Running in the Family (1982) and My Brother (1997), Michael Ondaatje and Jamaica Kincaid, two writers of the postcolonial experience now living in North America, play on "the return of the native" theme as they describe visits to their home islands, Sri Lanka and Antigua, respectively. The predicament of exilic homecoming, in turn, is the key theme in Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return (2003). Revisits to places of personal significance, rather than to a place of origin, give narrative shape to Susan J. Brison's Aftermath: Violence and the Remaking of a Self (2002), Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking (2005), and Alix Kates Shulman's To Love What Is: A Marriage Transformed (2008).
Processing of photoreceptor outer segments (OS) by the RPE is critical for maintaining the health of the neural retina. If any portion of OS processing is disrupted, or if the RPE suffer injury, subsequent inhibition of OS processing has deleterious effects. Therefore, it is crucial to understand OS processing in order to maintain visual health.1 Sub-retinal clearance of OS by RPE is facilitated by phagocytosis featuring both RPE-specific and Fc gamma receptor associated signaling cascades.2 Integration of these two pathways renders RPE capable of internalizing both specific and non-specific targets. To accomplish these tasks, there must be specific pathways available to present the cell with the protein machinery necessary for binding, internalizing and processing OS. The discovery that lack of c-Met signaling results in impaired phagocytosis in alveolar and hepatocyte macrophages suggests c-Met's role as modulator of phagocytosis.3 These data also suggest a role for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), the natural ligand for c-Met activation, in preparing phagocytes for clearance of cellular debris. We propose that HGF activation of c-Met in RPE prepares these cells for phagocytosis by initiating a signaling cascade that includes activation of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K). Subsequent activation of Rac1 by PI3K may regulate phagosome formation.4,5
This research looks at the diverse approaches to musical practice in New York City's improvised music scene. Using the ideas of improvisers living and working in New York, a central aim of this study is to explore the development of a musician's music theory as personal and implicit. Theory is defined here as a subjective and internalized body of knowledge informing the particular choices an individual improviser makes in real time, given an aesthetic landscape consisting of many other theories. The eighteen interviewees were each asked a series of questions pertaining to their experience as contemporary improvisers. From analysis of these interviews, three central topics emerged, which form the basis for the chapters of the dissertation. First, theory is an expression of an individual's identity, and that identity is performed in the act of improvisation. Second, there is a causal link between one's theory and one's musical practice, and this link is often expressed through "extra-musical" metaphors pertaining to the body. Third, the project holds that improvisation is an ethical act, the working out of musical and structural processes in real time, requiring a negotiation between the implicit theories of individual players whose aesthetic beliefs may be quite different from one another.
Understanding what makes test items difficult is an important step in understanding how individuals solve items on a test and in mapping the cognitive processes that are involved. However, there remains a gap in understanding how general stimulus features of items (e.g., length of a test item) impact the difficulty of items for a range of item types. In an effort to reduce this gap, the current study tested the impact of item stimulus features on item difficulty. The proposed difficulty framework utilized the radical and incidental approach of item generation theory (e.g., Irvine, Dann, & Anderson, 1990), which allows items to be decomposed into the factors that are hypothesized to impact difficulty as well as examine the impact of different item stimulus features on difficulty. To test the proposed framework, the current paper incorporated linear latent trait modeling (Fischer, 1973), an IRT-based analytical approach that expresses item difficulty in terms of underlying factors of stimulus complexity rather than individual parameters. Results indicate that certain item stimulus features, including language ambiguity, negative wording, constructed-response items, and colloquial knowledge impact item difficulty. Implications for test development are discussed.
The following is a psychoanalytic inquiry that uses the successive publishings of Vladimir Nabokov's autobiography to explore the functions that various versions of repetition play in transforming traumatic or conflicted memories into narratives that represent more symbolized and coherent accounts of the self. The data set consists of the three, successive, published, English language versions of Nabokov's memoirs. These successive versions are useful in that they represent Nabokov's repeated return to the significant memories and material that compose his autobiographical narrative. With each returns, Nabokov made meaningful revisions to his narrative. Consequently, his transformations are tracked over the course of the successive, drafted versions. Specifically, this project focuses on one chapter of Nabokov's autobiography--"Mademoiselle O"--she being a figure who loomed large in the early part of Nabokov's life. This project proposes that repetition manifests in any one of three main forms: as static repetition, as means for transformation, or as a means of creative play. In addition it proposes that these forms of repetition correspond to a continuum of symbolization, with desymbolized stasis on one end and symbolized play on the other. Here, alliteration was identified as a signifier for these varied forms of repetition. Two main hypotheses are proposed. The first states that if alliterative repetition marks emotionally salient material, then the concentration of alliteration in Nabokov's autobiographical narrative would be greater in areas that contain his most conflicted themes--loss and exile. Indeed results reveal significance. The second hypothesis proposes that if alliterative repetition serves a transformative function, then the concentration of alliteration would decline over the course of Nabokov's progressive drafts. Results are not significant but do reveal a trend toward increase in the final draft. The discussion explores various possibilities as to the given results. It is suggested that Nabokov may have increased his use of alliterative repetition because of the pleasure derived out of mastery and play. Alternatively, it is suggested that alliteration might facilitate internalization, in this case where reader internalizes author and work, thus resulting in Nabokov being better remembered by his readers, an elegant solution to his concerns around loss and being lost.

The trial of a Dartford woman over an incident where a holidaymaker allegedly had a piece of her nose bitten off at a holiday park, has been delayed by nearly 10 months.
Tina Love, of Acacia Road, had been set to go in trial in February or March this year but because of the heavy caseload at Chichester Crown Court, she will now face jurors on January 5, 2015.
Love denies one count of causing grievous bodily harm with intent.
She was charged on August 10 last year following an incident at Butlins in Bognor Regis, West Sussex, on April 11.
The incident is alleged to have happened during a performance of Jack and the Beanstalk at the holiday park.
Police were called shortly after 6.30pm to reports a 47-year-old woman from Aylesbury had been assaulted.
She was taken to hospital in Chichester, where doctors attempted to replace the piece of her nose that was allegedly bitten off.

We thought you might like a glimpse into what happens during a typical week of project work in Uganda: Below are the minutes of the staff meeting for the week beginning 11/11/14.
We thought you might like a glimpse into what happens during a typical week of project work in Uganda: Below are the minutes of the staff meeting for the week beginning 11/11/14.
Thanks to volunteer Oliver Bradley, the Kasiisi Project has an exciting new program to protect girls from sexual harassment , increase their access to education and to promote independence and self reliance: BICYCLES!
Long walks to school are a problem for all children in rural Uganda, but particularly for girls. They are vulnerable to sexual harassment on the road, and the temptation, when you are tired, to accept lifts from the Boda-Boys (drivers of motorbike taxis) can be irresistible. But Boda-Boys often expect sexual favors in return, leading to pregnancy and HIV infection.
The length of the journey also means very early starts, often before dawn, and arriving home too late to do much homework while it is still light.
The Kasiisi Project Girls' Bicycle Program hopes to change this. The brainchild of volunteer Oliver Bradley, this pilot initiative is providing 25 girls from Kasiisi and Kigarama Primary Schools with bicycles, and teaching them to ride them. Buffalo bicycles, provided by World Relief Bicycles, are built to withstand the tough roads of Africa. All the girls will receive helmets, road safety training, and will be required to bring the bikes in for regular check ups and maintenance.
And we do not forget our boys – we hope to train students in bicycle maintenance, both to maintain our bikes and to provide a skill they can put to good use in the future.
This is a pilot – we hope to expand the program into other schools. We thank Oliver and his family for their generosity donating the first 25 bikes. If this program excites you, donations for more bikes can be made via the paypal button on our website – instructions for use are in the previous post.
Here is how you use the Paypal button on the Kasiisi Project website so that your donation goes to the program that you wish it to.Click on the Paypal button and follow instructions until you reach the page where you make the final confirmation of your donation. On that page there is a line that says "Add Special Instructions to Seller" Click on this line and a box will open. You can type "Beehive" or "Girls' Program" or wherever you wish your donation to go, in this box, and when Paypal sends us notice of the donation we will see what you wanted and act on your instructions.
Don't worry if you can't make this work. When we get notification of your donation it includes your e-mail address and we will always check in with you which program you wish to support.
Know a kid who loves bees? or a friend passionate about helping girls stay in school? With the Holiday Season just round the corner are you looking for a great Holiday, Birthday or just an "I Love You" gift.
We have 2 great options for you: Help donate a Bunk for our new girl's dormitory, due to open in February, or a buy a Beehive for our farm.
Each bunk set costs $80 – we need 60, and each Beehive $40 – we need at least 20 to make it worth the beekeeper's time to set up the hives. Buy a whole bunk or only part of one, share the purchase of a beehive with your honey or buy one for your children – we will keep them updated on "their bees" and link them to the Ugandan students who are going to paint them.
Let us know the name and address of the recipient and the date you want it delivered by, and if you want us to add Holly, Menorah, Hearts or Birthday Balloons. We will send either a Bee Card or a Bunk Card, or both, and attach a plaque with the recipient's name to the item you choose. Then we will send a photograph of the finished item to them.
Donate through our Paypal button at www.kasiisiproject.org and we will contact you for details or e-mail email@example.com
Bees are wonderful – did you know that Honey bees will tap about two million flowers and fly 50,000 miles to make one pound of honey ? And then there is their vital role in pollinating our food. We hope that you love bees as much as we do, and are excited that we are including them with chimps (who don't like getting stung but love honey ) and elephants (who plain hate bees), to the growing list of Kasiisi Project animals of special interest.
It is common knowledge that bee populations are declining everywhere, and so we are delighted to announce that The Kasiisi Project is now becoming a partner in bee-keeping in Uganda. We are currently involved with bees in 3 different ways – hosting beehives on the Kasiisi Project Farm, with a view to one day becoming beekeepers ourselves, working with local research scientists to trial "bee-fences" as a deterrent to crop raiding elephants and spreading the importance of bees to our students.
Sarah Callan, Harvard '14, and former director of the Harvard Undergraduate Beekeepers Association has been in Uganda for 2 months spearheading our new initiative. She has been learning about beekeeping in rural Africa, sharing the successes and challenges of her experiences in the US with local bee-keepers, and learning about how Volcanoes Safaris Partnership Trust is trialing the use of bee-fences to keep elephants out of farms around Queen Elizabeth National Park.
Clearly the language of bees is international – Sarah has found kindred spirits in Uganda and will be sharing her fascination with bees with our children through planned presentations to school Wildlife Clubs.
Students from 7 schools competed in a Drama, Music and Dance competition, focused on issues of sexual health, girl's empowerment and equal access to education. This competition, the culmination of 6 months of activities designed to support the health curricula taught in the schools, was part of a new trial initiative, funded by the Lalor Foundation, to bring in-depth health knowledge and greater life skills to our girls. So that information presented in the skits and songs could be shared with a wider audience, all teams performed for their schools before traveling to the competition. Nurse Lucy, of the Kibale Health and Conservation Project was on hand to correct any errors.
Kiko won the prize for the best song, Kyanyawara for the best skit, Kigarama showed the most creativity, Rweteera the best Life Skills message, Pere Atche the best Women's Empowerment dance and Iruhuura the best Empowerment message. Kasiisi Primary School was the overall winner.
Scores from Music Drama and Dance, gardens and essay writing were tallied and Kasiisi became the first Recipient of the Lalor Girls' Health Cup.
The US summer brings new groups of young volunteers to Uganda and with them a come a range of fun and educational activities for the schools – always a high point of the year for our students.
Students at Kyanyawara Primary School are learning to knit, thanks to the efforts of Ellen Sarkisian. Ellen, has donated wool and needles and has encouraged others to follow suit.
Volunteer Oliver Bradley has put his architectural skills to work designing and building a new fire pit, sporting the Kasiisi Hand Logo at the Kasiisi Guesthouse.
Yvonne and Meghan Pemberton, visiting from the UK, introduced the children to recorders, brought skipping ropes, played netball and used games to enhance math skills. We thank Yvonne for suggesting to Tesco that they might donate underwear to our girls program. Providing underwear is an important component of menstrual care.
Harvard Student Clara Chen held cooking classes with Kasiisi Students as part of a nutrition and health enrichment project.
Ann Finkel continued a program of cross-cultural research into cognition, comparing how Ugandan and US children's allocate resources, and Kayla Bruce helped out with our girls' sexual health program. Nai Kalema a student in the MIT D-Lab Education Class, worked with Kasiisi staff to introduce concepts of social entrepreneurship to the children.
Thanks to a generous grant from the Lalor Burdick Foundation we have been able to deepen the content of our Girls' Health Education Program, and for the first time to lay the foundations of a parallel initiative for boys.
Two girls and a senior woman teacher from each of the 14 Kasiisi Project schools attended a 3 day residential Sexual Health Education workshop at the Makerere University Biological Field Station ,led by Ainembabazi Rachel of the Jane Goodall Institute (Uganda) to train them to be Health Peer Educators and to be a resource for other girls at their schools.
She was assisted by Field Director Debi Hoege, Basemera Eve, Kasiisi Project nurse and graduate of the Kasiisi Project Scholarship Program, and Nurse Lucy of the Kibale Health and Conservation Project.
Following the workshop girls from 7 of the schools are engaging in a series of projects to enrich and support what was learned in the workshops.
Supervised by Nurse Eve girls will debate gender roles, take part in drama and music competitions, and write essays about the challenges and joys of being a girl.
The first activity chosen by the schools was to design and plant "Secret Gardens" – private space with trees and flowers where girls can gather and talk about life skills and the issues that are important to their health, happiness and academic success..

This year, in collaboration with the Chimpanzee Sanctuary and Wildlife Conservation Trust (CSWCT) which runs the chimpanzee sanctuary on Ngamba Island in Lake Victoria, we launched an exciting new program aimed at fostering empathy towards chimpanzees in our children, The chimps spend most of their time free in the island forest, but there are times when they are confined to holding cages. This project was designed to get children thinking about the impact of boredom and inactivity on themselves and the chimps. The project was generously funded by the Columbus Zoo Conservation Program.
400 students from 7 Kasiisi Project school Wildlife Clubs heard from visiting CSWCT staff about why chimpanzees end up in sanctuaries, and the special challenges of keeping them healthy, happy and active. Each club was matched with a particular Ngamba chimpanzee and, with help from the CSWCT education staff, they learned of the benefits that enrichment articles bring to captive animals. Under CSWCT guidance they then constructed balls, tire climbers, noise makers and feeding puzzles for "their" chimp.
Children from all seven schools, accompanied by Kasiisi Project staff then visited Ngamba for 2 nights, met the chimps and watched them enjoy their new "toys". They also spent a night at the Ugandan Wildlife Education Center and visited the airport – a highlight! These students are now preparing presentations to share what they learned with their school Wildlife Clubs.
Thanks go to CSWST and to the staff at Ngamba for providing such a wonderful experience for our children.
Special gratitude to Lilly Ajarova, Director of CSWST for enthusiastically supporting this project, to Columbus Zoo who recognized its wonderful potential, and to the Ngamba chimps, who played up beautifully, and made the project work by doing everything they were supposed to with the children's offerings.

[Each week, SOHH asks two entertainment personalities to name their Top 5 rappers of all-time. To make things tricky, we've created a "Hall of Fame" of emcees (see right) who are universally respected and therefore may not be mentioned. After Tha Bizness revealed their fave five, Hot 97 radio personality Cipha Sounds chucks out his top choices.]
Outkast. The problem with Big Boi, I told this to his face, the problem with Big Boi is that he's a f*cking dope rapper, incredible rapper, in a group with the best rapper. So no matter what, he gets the short end of the stick. But that motherf*cker can rhyme his a** off. He's just in a group with someone who can rhyme a little better. It's a f*cked up situation. Outkast.
Dead Prez.
Mos Def.
T.I. I think T.I. is incredible and doesn't get the credit he deserves. It's probably his music choice.
Rick Ross. I like Ross because again, he's the type that, he's making music that fits right now incredibly, but he's also one that I feel clicked down his rap skills to feed the masses, where I know he could f*cking really rap and write some sh*t and his albums show it, it's just that his singles are just club bangers. But his albums, he'll have some deep f*cking real songs. Boom.

GERMANY: Plus-size survey to improve women's wear fit
By just-style.com | 15 February 2010
A size survey and research project are currently underway to gather data on plus-size women, with a view to improving the fit of clothing for this growing market.
The research project overseen by the Forschungskuratorium Textil eV (Textile Research Board) is measuring and evaluating body size and shape scientifically for the first time.
The results will provide the garment industry with current body measurement data, guidelines for the best designs, and realistic virtual size models.
Until now there has been a lack of well-fitting plus-size garments, partly due to the lack of data but also because scaling up an item designed for a size 8-12 doesn't accommodate different body shapes.
The research, which has also been carried out with the Hohenstein Institute for Clothing Physiology and the Institute of Textile Machinery and High Performance Material Technology at Dresden's Technical University, has evaluated 4000 data sets from women ranging in size from 44 to 64.
Measurements were recorded with state-of-the art 3D scanning technologies over the course of several size surveys.
From this, the Hohenstein Institute has produced new body size tables for sizes 48 to 64 and 3D size models for sizes 48 to 60. It has also compiled guidelines to help design plus-size women's outerwear.

Waitangi Tribunal turns down forest request
Relevant offers
The Waitangi Tribunal has decided against making a binding recommendation for the return of Crown forest land to selected Gisborne iwi.
The Tribunal today released its report into whether the Crown should return land to the Mangatu Incorporation, Te Aitanga a Mahaki and Affiliates, Nga Ariki Kaiputahi, and Te Whanau a Kai.
The Mangatu Remedies Report was the result of seperate applications by the groups.
They had asked the tribunal to make a binding recommendation for the return of Mangatu Crown forest licensed lands as a remedy for historical claims.
But the tribunal has declined, saying the precedent it would set could cause more grievances than it would solve.
"The Tribunal considered that redress, which seemed to favour one group over others, would risk creating fresh grievances and might undermine the chances of achieving a durable Treaty settlement of the claims," the tribunal said.
The claims had already been considered by the tribunal, and in its 2004 report the tribunal identified significant Crown Treaty breaches, especially loss of life and land suffered by Maori in the Turanga (Gisborne) district.
In May 2011, the Supreme Court directed the tribunal to hear the Mangatu Incorporation's application for remedy of a claim that concerned the Crown's 1961 purchase from the Incorporation of 8522 acres of land.
Following that, the three other groups lodged similar applications in respect of their own claims.
But in today's report, the tribunal said further negotiations with the Crown would be the preferred way to reach settlement.

Deficit Super Committee Finalized with Democratic Picks
The make-up of the congressional "super committee" tasked with cutting the national deficit has been finalized after House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi submitted her picks. On Thursday, Pelosi selected Democratic Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina, Rep. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, and Rep. Xavier Becerra of California.
Obama Urges Public to Pressure Lawmakers over Economy
Speaking at a battery plant in Michigan, President Obama renewed a call for Americans to pressure lawmakers on helping the economy.
President Obama: "The only thing keeping us back is our politics. The only thing preventing these bills from being passed is the refusal of some folks in Congress to put country ahead of party. There are some in Congress right now who would rather see their opponents lose than see America win."
Texas Gov. Rick Perry to Enter GOP Race
Texas Gov. Rick Perry has confirmed he will enter the race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination. Perry is expected to make a formal announcement on Saturday.
GOP Presidential Hopefuls Square Off in Iowa Debate
The news that Texas Gov. Rick Perry will join the presidential race comes as the top Republican hopefuls held a televised debate ahead of a straw poll in Iowa. Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann touted her opposition to the "cap and trade" energy bill, citing her measure targeting energy-smart light bulbs.
Rep. Michele Bachmann: "When it came to cap and trade, I fought it with everything that was in me, including I introduced the Light Bulb Freedom of Choice Act, so people could all purchase the light bulb of their choice. I also believe—I also believe that big government is hurting the United States. We need to have small government."
Republican Front-Runner Mitt Romney: "Corporations Are People"
Hours before the televised GOP debate, Republican front-runner Mitt Romney drew scrutiny after publicly declaring that "corporations are people." In an appearance at the Iowa State Fair, Romney made the assertion in response to crowd members who urged him to back tax hikes on the wealthy in order to fund Social Security and Medicare.
Mitt Romney: "For the coming decades going to be able to balance our budget and not spend more than we take in, we have to make sure that the promises we make in Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare are promises we can keep. And there are various ways of doing that. One is we could raise taxes on people."
Heckler: "Corporations!"
Romney: "Corporations are people, my friend. We can raise taxes on — of course they are. Everything corporations earn ultimately goes to people. So, where do you think it goes?"
Heckler: "In their pocket."
Romney: "Whose pockets? Whose pockets? People's pockets. OK. Human beings, my friend."
Top 500 U.S. Firms Increase Holdings 59% Since 2008
New figures were released showing that amidst high unemployment and economic stagnation, the nation's top 500 non-financial companies are sitting on $1.12 trillion in cash and short-term investments. According to the Wall Street Journal, the figure marks a 59 percent increase from 2008.
Pennsylvania Judge Sentenced to 28 Years for "Kids-for-Cash" Scheme
A former Pennsylvania judge has been sentenced to 28 years in prison for a so-called "kids-for-cash" scheme, in which he took money in exchange for sending juvenile offenders to for-profit detention centers. Former Luzerne County judge, Mark Ciavarella, Jr., received more than $2.8 million in bribes and kickbacks for putting juveniles into detention centers owned by his friends. Speaking before his sentencing, Ciavarella refused to admit he had accepted money in return for jailing children. Outside the courtroom, Sandy Fonzo, whose son committed suicide following a lengthy detention ordered by Ciaverella, expressed relief at the sentence.
Sandy Fonzo: "It's an outrage that he still continues [to deny kickbacks], but today he is going to prison for 25 to 28 years. He's being taken today. And to me, that just means everything."
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has thrown out thousands of juvenile convictions handed down under Ciavarella's watch. Ciavarella will now face a number of civil lawsuits from the children he sentenced and their families.
Report: 773 Pakistani Civilians Killed in U.S. Drone Strikes
A new report from a team of British and Pakistani journalists estimates U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan have killed as many as 775 civilians, including 168 children. Overall, the Bureau of Investigative Journalism reports some 2,292 people have died in the drone attacks since 2004. As many as 69 children were killed in the bombing of an Islamic school in 2006. The report also challenges a recent claim by President Obama's top counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, that no civilians have been killed in the drone attacks for nearly a year. According to researchers, at least 45 civilians were killed in 10 U.S. attacks during the last year.
Libyan Rebels Advance in Brega; Tripoli Residents Protest NATO Bombing
Libyan rebels say they have captured several areas of the port city of Brega from the regime of Col. Muammar Gaddafi. Heavy fighting has been underway in Brega, with reports of at least seven rebels killed. Meanwhile, dozens of Libyans rallied in Tripoli on Thursday to protest a NATO air strike that allegedly killed some 85 civilians earlier this week. The Gaddafi regime claims 33 children were among the dead. NATO maintains it struck a legitimate military target. A protester called on the United Nations to help put an end to the bombings.
Protester: "Mr. Ban Ki-moon, U.N. Secretary-General, we are the families of the victims who were killed by NATO air strikes on Majar village, which killed 85 martyrs. Most of them were children and women. We are appealing to you to take a firm stand against these crimes, which NATO commits every day."
Syrian Forces Attack Civilians; Hama Residents Detail Crackdown
Syrian forces continue to attack civilians in the crackdown on opposition to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Reports today say at least 11 people have been killed in raids near the Lebanon border. On Thursday, journalists were granted access to the city of Hama, following a four-day assault by Assad's forces.
Hama Resident: "They have been ruling us for 50 years. Assad's rule has lasted for 50 years. Through our determination, God willing — and we address Bashar al-Assad specifically — we will remove you by force. We will remove him by force. We are on our own. Look at us. We have nothing. They attacked us with tanks, they attacked us by airplane, with every means within their power, and we have nothing. They burned down our shops, our homes, and confiscated our belongings. Hama is burned down and torn to the ground. Go and check the alleys. People are dying of hunger. We have nothing but our god."
British PM Threatens to Restrict Social Media in Riot's Aftermath
British Prime Minister David Cameron has addressed a special session of Parliament on the riots that swept through a number of British cities and left at least four people dead. Cameron took aim at critics who have pointed to poverty and racism as major factors behind the unrest. Cameron instead said the problem centers around street gangs, adding the problem is one of "culture," not "poverty." In a move that has drawn scrutiny from civil liberties advocates, Cameron also announced the British government will consider imposing curfews and restricting social media websites to prevent future unrest.
British Prime Minister David Cameron: "Everyone watching these horrific actions will be struck by how they were organized via social media. Free flow of information can be used for good, but it can also be used for ill. So we are working with the police, the intelligence services and industry to look at whether it would be right to stop people communicating via these websites and services, when we know they are plotting violence, disorder and criminality."
U.S. Boosts Horn of Africa Famine Aid by $17 Million
The Obama administration has pledged an additional $17 million for relief efforts in the famine-stricken Horn of Africa. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced the new funding.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: "On Monday, President Obama announced that in light of the current crisis, we are making available an additional $105 million in emergency funding. Today I'm announcing another $17 million on top of that, with $12 million designed specifically for helping the people of Somalia. That brings the total U.S. humanitarian assistance to the region to more than $580 million this year. We are reaching more than 4.6 million people with this aid."
The United States is the largest donor of aid in the Horn of Africa but still spends more money in Africa on military efforts.
Israel Approves 1,600 New Settlement Homes in Occupied East Jerusalem
The Israeli government has formalized approval for the construction of 1,600 new settlement homes in occupied East Jerusalem. An Israeli citizen taking part in the protests in Tel Aviv criticized Israeli officials for presenting settlement construction as a solution to Israel's housing woes.
Protester: "This government is building houses for what's going to be Palestine. Many Israelis need apartments and don't have it, and they go and build building or houses for Palestine, which is ridiculous. And again it proves people—many people in the government can take everything and manipulate it so it will fit their own small, narrow interest and the way of thinking."
Industry-Linked Panel Backs Controversial Natural Gas Fracking
A key federal panel has endorsed the controversial drilling technique known as hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, in shale formations for natural gas. In a new report, the U.S. Department of Energy's Natural Gas Subcommittee says gas companies should be allowed to drill, provided they disclose chemicals used in the process and face monitoring for contaminants. But critics say the panel has avoided the question of how fracking should be regulated overall and has ignored potential damage to water supplies. In a series of letters, dozens of lawmakers, scientists and environmentalists have criticized the panel, saying six of its seven members have financial ties to the natural gas industry. The panel's chair, John Deutch, serves on the board of the natural gas company Cheniere Energy. A separate U.S. Environmental Protection Agency assessment of fracking is expected early next year.

Though Happy Days ended in 1984 it is evident the hit comedy television show and The Fonz have not lost their cool.
So Stage West theatre in Mississauga is bringing back the gang with a musical theatrical production with a Sheridan College graduate right with them.
The musical, which opens Feb. 18, features Richie, Ralph, Malph and everyone's favourite character Arthur Fonzarelli.
Lisa Lennox, who graduated from Sheridan's music theatre program in 2003, plays one of two Pinkette characters, a sidekick role to Pinky. Pinky is a character from later seasons of the TV show, a girlfriend to Fonzie.
"Our characters, maybe we're not so recognizable just because we're added to the show later," Lennox said. "They're kind of just straight edge. We kind of put a little log on the fire. We shake it up and bring in the twist and new dance numbers, and more of a rock n' roll to it. We spice up the town a bit."
For Lennox, Happy Days is a slight departure from her day job. She plays Deedee Doodle in the hit Canadian television show The Doodlebops, which has been ongoing since 2004 and continues to be among the top watched children's shows in North America.
"It's great. It's fun to be a little sexier. It's for kids but it's a little edgier," she said.
Though Happy Days is a family friendly show, Lennox said the two shows are a bit different, even though they both provide musical rock n' roll entertainment to the audience.
"It's the rock n' roll 50s era, it's exciting and everyone's jumping in their seats when it gets going. It gets you moving," she said of Happy Days.
"It's good music, it's a lot energy. It's great for all ages and the whole family to come out and enjoy a glass of wine. It's happy. It's what it is, it's Happy Days."
Happy Days debuted in 1974 and features the Cunningham family in the late 50s in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
"All the characters are there, all the characters that you would recognize from the show," Lennox said of the musical.
Pinky and the Pinkettes come in and shake things up and introduce dance moves such as the twist and the swim, which are unfamiliar to the locals.
"The Fonz is pretty cool but we shake him up a bit too actually," Lennox added.
She adds that people can expect to have a good time reliving the old show.
"People think they're going to come see the exact television show that they've known and grew up with," Lennox said. "We hit on that. We're definitely the characters but I think we're bringing even more to the table than people are going to expect."
The dinner-theatre show runs until April 24. Tickets range between $45.99 and $79.99, depending on the show time and day of the week. There is a dress code in the theatre. For show times, dates and reservations visit www.stagewest.com.

Reasons to Wear Sunscreen Daily
Do You Wear Sunscreen Every Day?
by Susi May 9 Reactions 7 Shares Print
After getting a pretty wicked sunburn on by upper back and neck, then peeling a week later, I feel like I have molted. But the new me is a bit smarter. While, I usually apply a moisturizer fortified with SPF to my face daily, I used to neglect the back of my neck but no more. These days, post burn, I am taking serious precautions — especially if I know I am going to out in the sun running or just running errands. What about you . . .

I wear it daily because noticed that with sunscreen, I don't break out as often versus going barefaced. But I cannot use any of the drugstore sunscreens on my face since they break me out. I have to get the pricey kind but I must deal and find deals. Thank goodness for online stores.
kclulu 3 years
I wear it on my face and neck everyday and if I am going to be outside at all (not just in the office) I slap it on everywhere else too. Lately I have been trying to remember to put it on the back of my hands because I realized that I never do that and I am going to start to get sun spots if I don't pay more attention to it. It is easy yo wash that off though.

Gabriela: I know what you mean. I use Neutrogena Dry Touch, it feels light and it doesn't leave your skin oily or greasy or shiny. I've only found the once for face, I just use regular sunscreen on my body though. Hope that helps!
bluesarahlou 3 years
So right now I'm using Kiss My Face. It's actually not a zinc oxide only type, but it doesn't make my skin react at all, which is nice! There are other brands like Badger, and Burt's Bees which would probably work for you since they're zinc oxide based. It was a lot of trial and error, that's for sure. Nowadays I only really put sunscreen on my face...and other places that burn easily. And I really only put it on when I'm going to be in direct sun for long periods of time.
amber512 3 years
Yikes, gray skin! Yeah, if you can recommend a brand that would be awesome :)
bluesarahlou 3 years
Amber....you're allergic. I am too. :) The only kinds I've found to work without having allergic reaction were the zinc oxide ONLY types. And then the challenge is to find a type that doesn't turn your skin gray. I can't remember the name right this minute but when I do I'll let you know what brand I use.
amber512 3 years
I don't use it ever because every single kind I've tried makes me break out with a MAJORLY itchy rash. I'd love to be protected from skin cancer without the massive suffering!!!!
Gabriela-Une-Vie-Saine 3 years
I know I should use it more often, but I hate the way it feels on my skin so for the most part I only use it when I know I'll be in the sun awhile.

In the English language, there are three basic types of verbs: action verbs, linking verbs, and auxiliary verbs, sometimes called helping verbs. Let's explore each type of verb in detail:
Action Verbs
Action verbs express action by describing the behavior of a person, place or thing. They may describe physical or mental actions.
John thinks about moving to Alaska every day.
The truck driver honks his horn when vehicles swerve into his path.
Test: To identify a word as an action verb, ask yourself: "Does this word express something I can do?" For an example, let's look at the following sentence: "Mary jumped rope every Saturday."
Can you Mary? No. Can you jump? Yes. Can you rope? No. Therefore, the verb is jumped.
Linking Verbs
Linking verbs link the subject (noun phrase) of the sentence with the rest of the sentence. Many linking verbs are forms of "to be." Let's take a look at some examples:
James is a nice person.
The new cat could be a calico.
Just as action verbs describe what a subject does, linking verbs describe the subject in some other way. Most often, they define or describe the subject of the sentence. Note that in the two example sentences the linking verb connects the subject to its definition. In the first sentence, Jane is defined as a nice person; in the second sentence, the new cat is identified as a possible calico.
The lists below show various forms of "to be" that function as linking verbs:
Auxiliary Verbs
Auxiliary verbs, which are sometimes called helping verbs, act as helpers to other verbs. They appear in front of action verbs and linking verbs. Let's view some examples:
The Girl Scouts are meeting after school today.
We have been waiting for twenty minutes in the dentist's office.
Although there are a variety of auxiliary verbs in the English language, the following words are a few that often function as helping verbs. Note that these auxiliary verbs may function as action or linking verbs in other cases.
Test: To distinguish between an auxiliary verb and a linking verb, simply look to see whether an action verb immediately follows the "to be" verb. For example, in the sentence "John was wearing his lucky sneakers at the baseball game," the action verb wearing immediately follows the "to be" verb was, so we know that the "to be" verb in this case is an auxiliary verb because it is "helping" out the action verb wearing. However, in the sentence "I was angry," the "to be" verb was appears alone, so it cannot be classified as an auxiliary verb. In this case it is a linking verb that describes how I was feeling.

Young Scolla - Built for It
Artist: Young Scolla
Producer: SMKA
Album: Young Scolla Meets SMKA
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 16 votes )
Thought Booth favorite Young Scolla sounded confident on his last feature, the Lyriciss-assisted On My Way? Well, you ain't heard nothing yet; on new single Built for It, the freestyle alumnus graduates from self-assured to downright messianic. Fortunately, the record itself seems to back up the artist's larger-than-life rhetoric. Over the appropriately bombastic, guitar-accented boardwork of 808 Experiment crew SMKA, Scolla makes clear that failure's not even a possibility, corroborating his claims with some fittingly lofty lyrical imagery: "With the big heart of David on a mission from God, trust me no Goliath will triumph, it's the legend that I am / If you try and tell me different you simple n*ggas are lyin'." Though the emcee's victory is assured, he's giving fans a chance to help things along by contributing a few bucks to the recording of his and SMKA's forthcoming street album, the aptly-titled Young Scolla Meets SMKA. Fans can make a pledge toward his $4,000 goal (and check out the creative incentives Scolla's offering for donation) at the project's Kickstarter page!
