Alumnus Earns Top Ohio Teacher Award
Stephenie Paul Eriksson Selected as State's Outstanding English Language Arts Educator
March 27, 2013
Stephenie Paul Eriksson
Gloria Flaherty recalls Stephenie Paul Eriksson's poignant, emotional reaction when her class studied the adolescent fiction story, Walk Two Moon, in her education course at Wilmington College in the mid-1990s.
Teaching Sharon Creech's Newbery Award-winning novel and its themes of grief, love, death and women's roles gave Flaherty, emeritus professor of education, insight into what kind of teacher her student would become.
Flaherty noted the "warmth, the empathy" Eriksson, a member of WC's Class of 1997, exuded while learning to teach Walk Two Moon. "I think she's one of the most empathetic and courageous teachers I've known."
Eriksson, an English teacher at Blanchester High School, was named "Outstanding English Language Arts Educator" for Ohio's high schools March 23 at the spring conference of the Ohio Council of Teachers of English Language Arts.
Flaherty, who attended the awards ceremony, proudly called Eriksson one of the top students she's encountered during her long career in education.
"Stephenie was an exceptional undergraduate student, always prepared, smart and she wrote well," Flaherty said. "She learned everything we could teach her, but she has that extra something that cannot be taught."
After teaching seventh and eighth grade at Blanchester for nine years, Eriksson moved to the high school in 2007 and currently teaches all senior-level English classes. She also co-teaches a class for struggling readers.
Eriksson earned National Board Certification in 2004 and is a recipient of an "Innovative Educator: Podcasting for Assessment" mini-grant and "Martha Holden Jennings Master Teacher Award."
Through these grants, she has integrated iPads in her classroom and inspires her students to tell their stories digitally.
She and her husband, Markus, Class of 2000, reside in Wilmington with their son, Sebastian.

Electrocute does 130000 damage before reductions.
I Just tested it yesterday on normal mode. I hope the fire doesnt behave different on heroic mode.
If so, it was possible for me to Kite the fires, while Nef was in a Corner. I guess i had 8 resets (burned through the first two phases and let me kite till enrage) and had about 40 meter extra kite path to use, till i would ve run into fire.
Are there any other disadvantages when using the corner position?
Another question regarding the electrocute. Do you also have to use raid CD's in 10m? We should push every 45s a electrocute. We have nature resistance totem, but only 3 Raid cd's (on a 3 Min CD).
And will shieldblock be enough as kiter?
Electrocute does 130000 damage before reductions.
How many PSes do you have we use 3 and with shield wall the tank still always has a cd for every one and we probably push a lot faster than you will. Don't forget tinge like holy pall hand of sac +bubble or the the trinket
Call out for support (Raidwall, Painsup, Guardian Angel, Bubble+Sacrifice or just a dps stop) if you run out of cooldowns. When i reset the adds properly i get one-two electrocutes during a phase of no adds up, thus i can save my cooldown for the next one.
- Shield Wall (40% every second minute)
- Tol Barad Trinket (40% resist on electrocute every minute)
- Shield Block (20% magical damage reduction and "block capped", should be up for every Electrocute*)
- Shockwave (taking out incoming damage every 3rd shadow blaze, you can use it upfront an electrocute to help topping yourself. You can combine this with a heroic leap if things get really messy.
- Raidshout + enraged Regeneration (every third minute)
I regulary use
1st Mirror
2nd Adds aren't up
3rd Mirror
4th Shield Wall
5th Mirror
6th Raid Shout
7th Mirror
8th Shield Wall
9th Mirror
On a sidenote: i'm almost never in range of either natur resistance totem or hunter aura, if you struggle heavily with the elcetrocute spikes you might want to check for this first.
Imho most important about Nefarian heroic isn't the proper cooldown management (it's honestly rather simple, use a mirror if you don't happen to be a DK and you're set) but the proper reset of the adds. There's very little leeway and a lot of pressure at 20+ stacks. It should really looks like this (our most recent kill):
* unless your fury warrior is maxed on stacks and start critting with executes for 500k
Thanks for the Infos. I mean are there any other disadvantages?
Of course they could help me out, if i fail. But usually i have a very little fail chance, so i try to help my raid.
Compared to the middle tactic, where the mt / whole raid can fail with positioning.
Like i said, i practiced yesterday on NM a bit. 3 Trys with about 30 min kiting... never failed a reset, beside 1 single add...
Of course on HM, there will be the cooldown rotation, that puts more pressure on me. But i hope that i can do it.
So the only person who can fail in P3 is me.
Do i really need Shield Wall with proper add resetting? And does the raid needs raidwide cd's (like barrier), to avoid getting 1shotted?
Just try hardmode, if you feel fine with having Nef in a corner i can't see a problem with that. You want a damage reduction cooldown for every electrocute, having the new shield block is a huge step forward for all warriors but i tend to use it on cooldown rather then delaying it over and over again for every crackle, thus granting me a noticeable decrease in melee damage taken (which is still 75% of my overall damage taken during that phase with both thunderclap and demoshout up and stunning constantly) and needs to be healed up from a single healer while moving, juggling their own self cooldowns and breaking mind control every so often.
Unless your dps heavily undergear that place or your healer can't top you off for whatever reason your dps will never be in the risk of dying, period.
Having some problems in phase 3, where the fire creeps from the outside of the ring into the middle where the raid is. DPS are complaining that they can't get good stacks of stolen power because they risk dropping out of the mind control in the middle of flames. Is there a particular trick to the starting position in p3 to avoid this happening? We have nef in the middle facing almost directly south, the raid assembled to his right, the add pile at the far north.
Also depends on how you are rotating nef and which side the adds are on. Basically you want to draw an 80-100 degree angle from where your tank is standing, with nef and the hinge, to where the adds are being tanked. And your raid should stand on the line from nef to the add tank.
As for starting, you want the add tank to be as close to the front of nef as possible without getting breathed when the adds first spawn in phase 3, gives you a few extra seconds of kiting time on the first set before the raid has to move which is very important for topping people up after the transition.
Er, this probably calls for pictures... But in the absence of those, lets use a clock face.
Add tank isn't getting tail whipped, tail starts out pointing towards 11 o'clock, with the adds getting picked up at 12 and moved around clockwise. Raid starts at around 8-9 o'clock, with the nef tank starting at 5 o'clock. The whole group slowly rotates, like at Halion. So if I read what you are saying correctly, we should consider putting the raid on the same side as the add tank (i.e. starting at around 3 o'clock)?
After a night wiping and a few tries in P3. I actually cant complain about the corner position. I had no problems resetting the adds or running out of space. However we had several other problems (our best try was 8%):
1. Kiter Tank healer dies. In several tries he got oneshotted by a crackle. He had 128k hp and had no CD for the crackle and took a full hit. What healer would you advise as kite healer? Disci, Paly or Druid? A Pre Shielding should survive, without a CD and could also offer a PS for the tank. However i would also love him in the group for his barrier. Whats your opinion?
2. Bad placement of the add corpse in P1. We had several trys, where the Nef breath and the shadowflame wasnt enough to resurrect all Adds. I first tried to sync them, but because of the extra time, i died. So i kited them with 2 different energy levels. Which was possible, but on the long run, i always failed. The biggest problem, that i lost 1 corpse, while i had to go on because of the other living adds. Because of bad luck, the next 3 Shadowflames didnt hit the corpse. So it got resurrected when i was out of range. I also tried to sync them mid fight, but the dmg always killed me. How do you handle those situations?
man, guild got him to 18% last night. extending raid for today. hope they get it!
READ THIS: Posting & Chat Rules
b) Holy pally got a -40% magical damage cooldown on a 40s cooldown + bubble + stun for the adds.. should be a nobrainer
For your other problem: that's a kiter issue, have them work on that. I just tank them all + Onyxia in phase one so they end up being clumped up perfectly. Syncing isn't possible due to fast growing stacks, having a hunter or rogue assist with MD/tricks on roamers.
Thanks at least in part to the feedback here, we got to 11% but hit the berserk timer, so now we are looking at DPS optimisation and also a bit of extra survival.
On our best attempt, we had one of our shaman (I think in a burst of over-enthusiasm) nuke 3 other players with a badly timed chain lightning and thunderstorm combo... This seems to present a difficult choice. On the one hand, we want people to max their dps, but on the other hand lots of classes have AOE elements in their max dps rotations. Any tips on this front?
Also, when are people burning heroism/bloodlust? After getting frustrated with phase 2 we started using it then, but I'm aware that it would be more beneficial to total RDPS if it were timed when we had the benefit of stolen power.
I'd just tell people who need to AoE for their rotation to hold off their chain lightnings etc until the mind controls have faded, 3 dead people means way more of an rDPS loss than holding off a spell for 5 seconds.

The Calgary Roughnecks topped the Edmonton Rush, 10-5, in preseason action on Saturday in Red Deer.
The Roughnecks dressed their A-team in the first half and roared out to a 7-2 lead. Pat Campbell allowed just two goals in the first half, while Matt King held the Rush to three in the second.
Dane Dobbie, Jeff Shattler, Josh Sanderson and Scott Ranger each scored two goals, while Kaleb Toth and Cayle Ratcliff added singles.
Edmonton Rush GM/Head Coach Bob Hamley has announced the signing of free-agent forward Jason Wulder who will return for a second tour of duty with the Rush. He rejoins the Rush to play the role of set-up man on the new-look Rush offence which will be featuring newcomer and 2008 NLL all-star Andy Secore, according to Hamley.

Hybrid Vehicle Use in the HOT/HOV Lanes
In May 2008 the Colorado Department of Transportation's (CDOT) hybrid vehicle program began and allowed owners of qualified Hybrid Vehicles to apply for a permit to use High Occupancy Vehicle ("HOV") lanes and High Occupancy Toll ("HOT") lanes with a single occupant. Qualified and approved vehicles must display the required HOV exemption permit and transponder. ***HOV Exemption still in effect for vehicles that have been approved by CDOT.***
Effective Immediately: CDOT has reached it's quota of 2000 permits issued to hybrid vehicles for the HOT/HOV lanes. New applicants will be placed on a waiting list.
Reminder: If you no longer own your hybrid vehicle, please contact CDOT at the number provided in the Contact Information located on this page.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

ROCKVILLE, Md. - Ask Montgomery County Councilman Craig Rice what's in that brown bag he's carrying and he'll tell you: Baked beans, an apple and a boiled egg.
"I'm saving the four spears of asparagus I have left for dinner," he says.
Rice is among a group of county officials and residents finishing their fifth and final day of the SNAP Challenge. Participants limited themselves to eating on $5 a day for five days, roughly the same amount granted to people participating in the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, which used to be known as food stamps.
The local challenge was organized by Montgomery County Councilwoman Valerie Ervin.
"It's very socially isolating," she says. The five-day exercise meant turning down dinner invitations and staying out of the County Council building's cafeteria so she wouldn't feel tempted to break down and stray from her own brown bag lunches.
Rice says he found that he was hungry, and he missed the cafeteria's Peruvian chicken, or another favorite, the onion rings.
But Ervin says she wasn't really hungry. "Except for the day I went to Annapolis and I didn't prepare."
She didn't pack a lunch. All she had was an apple. "So I really got a hunger headache."
Ervin says the experience has been profound for her, especially when she thinks about children who are hungry.
About 34 percent of the county's 149,000 students are eligible for free and reduced meals, an indicator of both hunger and poverty.
"I started to think about food 24 hours a day. How do little kids do this? How do little children go to their school and sit at their desks? They're supposed to be concentrating on what the teacher says and all they can think about is: What's for lunch?" she says.
Ervin says she organized the five-day effort to spotlight the number of hungry people in Montgomery County and to help public officials keep that in mind as they shape public policy.
According to Ervin's SNAP the Silence Facebook page, about 65,200 Montgomery County residents received SNAP benefits in October. For families that qualify for SNAP, the average daily benefit per person is $4.28 per day.
In the D.C. metro area, one in six residents is at risk of or is experiencing hunger - that's more than 641,000 people, according to the U.S. Census.

ULSTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- A group of people in the Hudson Valley are playing the role of angels, making miracles happen for some local families this holiday season.
The "Everyday Angels" held an event Sunday for area shelters and 55 families who they adopted for the holidays. Everyone came together to enjoy a pizza party at Primo's in Clintondale. The angels ensure that adopted families and people in shelters have presents for Christmas.
Organizers say they're always willing to help anyone who needs it, any time of year.
"All year round. A lot of times we look at the holidays, we do a big crunch on them and then the rest of the year people are still struggling. That's not our goal. Our goal is to help them every day, throughout the year, not just the holidays," said Pamela Bayer, Everyday Angels PR Representative.
In the organization's first nine months, Everyday Angels has held a number of events in the community.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Dancers from around the region are kicking, stomping and spinning in circles to support a tiny dancer and her family devastated by the Boston Marathon bombings.
The blasts were particularly tragic for the Richard family of Boston.
Eight-year-old Martin Richard was killed, his mother seriously injured and his sister - a 7-year-old Irish dancer named Jane - lost a leg.
Now, as part of an effort called "Dance Out For Jane," members of the Irish dancing community in the D.C. and Baltimore region are organizing performances and fundraisers for the family.
Josie Callahan is a 22-year-old senior at the University of Maryland and an Irish dancer who toured last year with the professional company of Lord of the Dance.
Callahan was so touched by the story of Jane and her family, she organized a performance and fundraiser Tuesday night at Looney's Pub in College Park.
"When I was 7, Irish dancing, I used to dance in the grocery aisles. It was my favorite thing to do, and just made me so happy. And not being able to do that I think is just so unbelievably sad. That doesn't even scratch the surface of the grief that that family is going through right now," Callahan said.
Irish dancer Cierra O'Keefe, 18, is a University of Maryland freshman.
"I...could not even fathom losing or battling to lose my leg at such a young age. Even apart from Irish dancing, riding bikes, running around with friends, jumping on the playground, you're just so little and it's such a tender part of childhood I just found that so devastating," said O'Keefe.
More Irish dancing performances and fundraisers are planned throughout the weekend in the D.C. area.
The Dance Out For Jane DC Facebook page has the full schedule.
The Richard Family Fund also is accepting donations.

As one of the rookies on the grid in need of track time, Daniil Kvyat admits the first test in Jerez was not the start he wanted.
Kvyat has limited F1 experience having only taken part in two Friday outings ahead of this week's first pre-season test in Spain.
The Toro Rosso driver was in action on Friday, the fourth and final day, but managed just eight laps in the morning due to a system problem.
Once that was fixed he went out for a run in the afternoon but was only able to add one more lap to his tally.
The 19-year-old, though, insists he has every confidence in his team and their engine supplier Renault to get it right before the next test in Bahrain.
"As a rookie with so much to learn, this week in Jerez has not been the start I would have wanted," said the Russian driver.
"However, I trust my team and I trust Renault, so with some hard work, I am sure we can be in better shape and start to catch up at the next test.
"There have been a few positives, because we have acquired some useful data, even with limited running.
"Some questions have therefore already been answered and I was able to get a feel for the car in wet conditions."

There is so much to do/discover and collect, you can walk all around the park or activate menu to transport to anywhere on the map, collect autographs, go on rides, play mini games, take photographs, unlock secrets, buy merchandise .......list goes on and on. I've played 2-3 hours and completed 10% so as you can see its a big game. for the money you can not find any better.

text: I've been reading two books on attaining the jhanas, but I think I've found two different views on one part of the practice that leaves me confused. First, Bhante Gunaratana says in his book 'Beyond Mindfulness in Plain English' that thoughts can occur in at least the first jhana. In Ajahn Brahm's book 'Mindfulness, Bliss and Beyond' he states quite emphatically that coarse thought is impossible in jhana. Now, both of these monks seem wise, but both can't be right. Can anyone offer any thoughts on which of them is right?

\nJack Moore who teaches beekeeping at the College in Junction is here for our m eeting. I just spent the afternoon with him and we assessed my hives for w inter viability. I received affirmation as to many things I believed via i ntuition and he helped me judge the weight of my hives by lifting one end. It was great and I look forward to hearing more of what he has to say on Monday night.
Also don't forget the ""Annual" Beekeepers swap meet \, Bring items for trade or for sale. I have had members ask if they could bring items other than what might be considered "bee" related\, I decided it really didn't matter. I know also that one member will be moving soon and wants to sell all his equipment.\n

Asus Taichi Video Review - Windows 8 Ultrabook with 2 Displays
Quick Reply
We've waited a long time for the Asus Taichi Windows 8 convertible Ultrabook-tablet, first announced in June 2012, well ahead of Windows 8's official Oct. 26, 2012 launch date. Delayed a little, the computer is just now trickling into stores in its 11.6" Taichi 21 form. The Asus Taichi 31, the 13.3" version with identical specs except the larger display panels and an added SD card reader, should follow soon. Why did the Asus Taichi have geeks swooning for months? It has dual 1080p IPS displays so you can use it as a tablet or a laptop without delicate specialty hinges or living with the keyboard facing outward in tablet mode like Lenovo's IdeaPad Yoga models.
So how does it work? Simple, yet unique: there's a matte 1920 x 1080 IPS display on the inside for use in standard notebook mode. This one isn't a touch screen, but you'll likely start poking at it reflexively as we did. The outer display on the Taichi's lid is also IPS 1080p, though glossy. When the display is off, it looks much like a black glass-topped Ultrabook like the HP Envy Spectre 14 and Acer Aspire S7 (though the Acer has white glass). The glossy Gorilla Glass outer display supports both 10 points of multi-touch and the included N-Trig digital pen with pressure sensitivity for drawing, painting and note taking. This is N-Trig's new DuoSense 2 digitizer and pen, also used on the Sony Vaio Duo 11, and it's a significant improvement over older N-Trig offerings such that we didn't wish for a Wacom digitizer.
In terms of both design and internals, this is basically an Asus Zenbook Prime, and like that series you can get it in either 11.6 or 13.3 in sizes. It shares the same tapered wedge design, high quality metal casing and good backlit island style keyboard. The Taichi 21 weighs 2.75 lbs. making it light for an Ultrabook but heavy relative compared to Android and iOS tablets. It's available with ULV Ivy Bridge Core i5 and i7 CPUs with 4 gigs of RAM and Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics. The i5 comes with a 128 gig SSD drive and the i7 with a 256 gig SSD. The Taichi has dual band Intel WiFi 802.11b/g/n with WiDi, Bluetooth, NFC, a front 720p webcam and a rear 5MP 1080p webcam. The notebook has two USB 3.0 ports (one charging), micro HDMI, 3.5mm combo audio and VGA out via a mini VGA port and included VGA dongle adapter. Asus also includes a 10/100 USB Ethernet adapter in the box, as they do with Zenbook Prime models. You get a ballistic nylon sleeve with microfiber interior and a little matching pouch for the dongle adapters.
The tablet has a switch so you can quickly put the Taichi into notebook-only mode (closing the lid will put the machine to sleep) or hybrid mode (closing the lid turns on the outer display for tablet use). There's a dedicated "Taichi" key (on the top row with a blue Yin-Yang symbol) that launches Asus' utility for basic settings and info along with the more important 4 display options: laptop mode (inner display only), tablet mode (outer display only), mirror mode (both displays show the same content) and extended desktop where the inner and outer displays function as primary and secondary monitors that show different content and can run different apps. For example, you could have email and the web browser running on the inner panel while someone else watches a movie or plays a game on the outer display-- Think Battleship on steroids. Asus also includes a utility that you can use in laptop mode where you can drag a PowerPoint file, video or PDF into the app window to play it on the outer display. Switching between the displays takes 1-2 seconds.
Happily, Asus improves quickly and the weakenesses we've seen on Zenbook Prime models have been addressed: light bleed is minimal and the large trackpad actually works reliably even for Windows 8 multi-touch gestures. The Sandisk 256 gig SSD drive in our Taichi earned high benchmark numbers and is a totally new model compared to the slower Sandisk SSDs used in older Zenbook models.
Here's our Asus Taichi video review. Our full written review will follow soon.

Fun in the Sun Workout
If you're looking to take full advantage of the gorgeous weather we've been having then take your workout outside. Grab an exercise band and go for a run or a bike ride. Set out to do a 30 minute workout. Anyone can get away for 30 minutes whether it's at lunch or after you're done with work. Every 10 minutes stop running or riding and perform one round of the exercises below, for a total of 3 rounds. This will provide you with your daily cardio needs and some extra strength training. Now quit looking out your office window and go.
All reps should be done slow and controlled. After completing 20 reps on each exercise hop back on your bike and ride or run for 10 more minutes until it's time to do the next round.
20 Lunges on each leg- Place band under front foot. Rest it across your shoulders while keeping your elbows elevated. Drop back knee towards ground while maintaining your front knee over your ankle and not letting it go past your toe. Perform 20 reps of your knee touching the ground then switch to your other leg.
20 Shoulder Press- Step on band with your back foot. Then, step through the band and raise it up to shoulder height. Press above head until arms are fully extended. As you lower your arms pull your hands out wide into the shape of a goal post. Squeeze your shoulder blades together every time you lower your arms.
20 Overhead Tricep Extensions- From the same position as the shoulder press, but you will take an underhand grip on the band. Keep your elbows raised directly above your shoulders. Only lower your hands as far down as they will go. Then raise them back to the starting position fully extended above head.
20 Back Rows- Place the band around your feet with the necessary tension. If you grab the band tighter by choking up on it, the tension will be harder. Balance on your butt while maintaining an upright posture. Fully extend your arms each rep then pull your hands to your ribs while squeezing your shoulder blades together.
20 Balanced Bicep Curls – From the same position as the rows, hold your elbows up high with fully extended arms. This is the starting position. Pull your hands into your face while keeping your elbows up.
No way this can't cheer up your day!

Personal Trainer
Co-Owner of ProFormance Fitness
I was born and raised in Louisville along with my four sisters. I graduated from St. X in 98'and University of Louisville in 02'. I have two amazing kids that are much sweeter to life than I ever was.
Although, I didn't really know what all went into it, I dreamed of owning a gym and knew that I wanted to help people out. I consider myself very lucky to be able to take advantage of the opportunities that have existed in my life. I received a degree in Exercise Physiology and a minor in Marketing at UL, both of which were very helpful in getting me where I am today.
I have 10 years experience as a Personal Trainer. I have nationally accredited certifications through NSCA-CSCS and ACE. In 2003 I met Cary Cox and he already had the same visions that I did. We didn't want people sitting around reading magazines on machines. Our past experience from the big box gyms helped us realize we wanted something different. We were looking for real results in a private atmosphere where intimidation doesn't exist. ProFormance Fitness has grown from the original facility three times. The latest addition added another 5000 sq/ft to keep up with demand. We are fortunate to have amazing trainers and lots of energetic clients.

How do I choose a good rhinoplasty surgeon (nose reshaping surgeon)?
Rhinoplasty (nose reshaping) is a particularly technical challenge for surgeons. This is because the nose is essential to the face and very visible and any fine alterations or abnormalities will be very visible. Some surgeons specialise in rhinoplasty surgery and some choose not to perform this procedure. For example, I do not perform rhinoplasty operations [...]Read more

Hear from the detectives and reporters who worked on the murder case that shocked the residents of a quiet Michigan suburb.
Diane Newton was a beautiful young reporter who started working her way up the network affiliate ladder as soon as she graduated from college. In 1989, she was hired to anchor a morning news program, and she moved with her husband, Bradford King, to the quiet suburb of Battle Creek.
But while Diane's career continued its ascent, Bradford could only find a part-time job, and he spent most of his time at home with their two small children. Then, in 1990, Diane started to receive threatening letters, and she feared that she was the target of a stalker. Bradford, however, didn't seem to feel that the letters were serious, at least not until Diane was ambushed and killed early in 1991. CITY CONFIDENTIAL chronicles the investigation and trial that followed, drawing on extensive commentary from law enforcement officials and reporters who worked the case. What emerges is a harrowing portrait of domestic discord gone too far, and a murder that forever changed a town's view of itself.

Hi there,
I have long been interested in Buddhism, ever since my first conversation with my Dad on this topic at our dining table in Madras, India, when I was 12. Since then I have visited Bodhgaya, Nalanda, and Vaishali in my quest to learn more. Over the years, my quest has taken me computer science and the "hard problem of AI", i.e., the study of consciousness itself.
To this end, I have attended the beginner Viapassana 10 day course and have been meditating for the last decade or so.
I am sick and tired of new age thinkers who go on and on about "healing energy" and such, only because they do not progress knowledge beyond what it was over 2.5 millenia ago. My attempt to do so can be found here (I hope it does not cause offense): http://www.medical-hypotheses.com/artic ... 2/abstract
I recently and accidentally experienced Turyia, but have been unable to reproduce it. This has given me some insight into many hitherto opaque readings in Buddhist, Zen and Hindu literature. (It also completely destroyed my then current theories on consciousness; however, I remain very much a materialist.)
My main aim in coming to this site is to learn. Specifically, it had always struck me that during the Vipassana talks, it was mentioned at least twice, that the Buddha "...saw things as they are..." and my intuition then and now is that this may not metaphorical, i.e., that in deep states of meditation, qualia perception mechanisms are perhaps altered and allow us to see things in a unique way. That is what I hope to learn about in my quest to try to understand qualia--what does the Buddhist literature (and Buddhist theories of atomism) have to say on this.
I have read the wikipedia and the online Stanford Encylopedia of Philosophy entries on these already, but they do not address the Buddhist perspective on qualia "head on" and any new sources of information on this would be of much help.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEAugust 22, 2007
Emergency Room Doctor Charged with Four Counts of Income Tax Evasion
COLUMBIA, S.C. – South Carolina Department of Revenue investigators today charged James C. Balvich, 54, an emergency room physician doing business as K.B. Management Services, with four counts of income tax evasion.
Balvich failed to report the gross income from K.B. Management Services on his individual income tax returns. The understatement of income for the four years was in excess of $4.1 Million for calendar years 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005.
Balvich is currently being held at the Alvin Glenn Detention Center and bond has been set at $250,000 cash or surety. If convicted on all charges, he faces up to five years in prison, fines up to $10,000, or both.

Well, what's there to say about Pisa? It's got a leaning tower, that's true, but what they don't want you to know is that it's one of probably hundreds of less-than-straight towers all over Italy. The truth is that Pisa is probably best done on a two-hour stop en route from Point A to Point B, because you've probably simply got to have the picture of yourself "holding up" the tower, right? Yeah, we thought so. No worries, we've all done it. The bottom line is that unless you've got a reason to stay longer, Pisa's the perfect stopover.
What to Do
There's really only one main reason people come to Pisa, and that's to see the famous leaning tower. Thankfully it's very close to the main train station, so you can drop your bags in a locker and hop on a bus for the short ride to the pristine square around the tower and church. The Leaning Tower is really just the bell tower for the adjacent cathedral, which is quite impressive in its own right. Tours of the cathedral and the baptistery (behind the church) are recommended, and cheap in comparison to the tower itself. The tower is sometimes open for climbing and sometimes not, depending on its stability, and it's a good idea to book tickets in advance if you're hoping to climb it.
Getting There
It's likely that Pisa isn't your only stop in Italy, so your entry point is likely to be either Rome's Fiumicino Airport or Milan's Malpensa Airport. Either way, you'll probably be taking the train to Pisa. Look for deals on airfare to Italy.
Where to Stay
If you're determined to spend the night in Pisa, there are lots of hotels and hostels to choose from. There is a university here, so if that's your reason for visiting you'll want to make sure your accommodations are close to the university. You can begin by looking through these Pisa hostels and Pisa hotels and book a room today.

Ask the Governor
Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell
WASHINGTON - Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell believes the U.S. will not avert sequestration and automatic spending cuts will go into effect on March 1.
"Everyone knew this was coming for 18 months," he said on Tuesday while a guest on WTOP's "Ask the Governor" show. "It looks like it's going to happen."
McDonnell, a Republican, was strongly critical of President Barack Obama, saying the president "shouldn't be running around doing press conferences. He should be locked in a room figuring this thing out."
He says his state has been preparing for what he calls "haphazard" spending cuts and has allocated money to help localities cope with the changes. But, he does not support raising taxes to help the federal government pay its bills.
"I'd rather have them do what they said they were going to do," McDonnell said. "The bills are now due, and we need to figure out how to cut."
McDonnell says the sequester will affect Virginians disproportionately, and that the first thing they'll notice is furloughs in the Department of Defense, which he expects to happen immediately.
The governor answered questions on a range of topics Tuesday, including the state's transportation bill, school reform and voter ID.
