More on Myopathy
Myopathy refers to diseases that affect muscle, including hereditary conditions such as muscular dystrophy, hormonal abnormalities such as hypothyroidism, and inflammatory conditions such as polymyositis.
Myopathy may be caused by a variety of hereditary conditions, metabolic abnormalities, hormonal abnormalities such as hypothyroidism, steroid use, and inflammatory conditions of the muscle such as polymyositis.
Symptoms and Diagnosis
Myopathy weakens the muscles, which can lead to difficulty walking, standing, holding things, opening jars, turning keys, chewing, swallowing, and talking. The disorder is diagnosed with a combination of blood tests and electromyography (EMG) -- tests that measure the ability of nerves and muscles to send and receive signals. Genetic tests also may be performed. In some cases, a biopsy of the muscle may be needed to confirm a diagnosis. A small sample of muscle from the thigh or upper arm is surgically removed under local anesthesia, usually on an outpatient basis. The sample may undergo various chemical and genetic tests to identify abnormalities.
Treatment varies with the cause of the disease, but may include medication, vitamin supplements, avoidance of certain medications or substances, and physical or occupational therapy.

Drugs, alcohol, and tobacco can harm your body and mind. If you are pregnant, these substances can also hurt your baby. They enter the baby's blood through the placenta. They can cause mental problems, birth defects, and problems before, during, and after birth.
Any street drug, especially one that can cause addiction, is dangerous. You are addicted if you cannot carry out your usual daily activities without it. If you are addicted to heroin or cocaine, your baby can become addicted. The baby will then have withdrawal symptoms after birth. You may neglect your own healthcare, increasing your unborn baby's risk.
Even if you just use drugs sometimes, you are at risk because the effects of drugs can be so harmful. Street drugs can cause you to have flashbacks, convulsions, heart attacks, seizures, violent behavior, and lung failure causing death. Use of street drugs can increase the risk of losing the baby, delivering the baby too soon, and having a small baby. Some babies may die while inside the uterus, and others may die after delivery. The babies who survive may have lifelong physical, behavioral, and emotional problems. They may have brain, liver, kidney, or bone marrow damage. They may be unusually fussy and may have uncontrollable body movements. Drugs can also cause premature separation of the placenta, which can cause sudden massive bleeding (hemorrhage). This bleeding can put the lives of you and your baby in danger.
If you are hooked on street drugs (angel dust, hashish, speed, LSD, peyote, cocaine, or marijuana), get help for your drug use before you become pregnant. If you are already pregnant, get help now. Ask your healthcare provider for advice and a possible referral to a treatment program.
Make sure you discuss the use of prescription drugs with your healthcare provider at your first prenatal visit. Some prescription drugs can harm an unborn baby. Be sure to tell anyone who prescribes medicine for you that you are pregnant.
If you have an infection that may need an antibiotic, check with your healthcare provider. Some antibiotics are harmless. Others could hurt your baby. For example, tetracycline should be avoided during pregnancy. It may cause your child's teeth to be discolored and may affect growth of the child's bones. Avoid sulfa drugs near the end of your pregnancy. They may cause the baby's skin to become yellowed (jaundiced) in the first days of life.
Check with your healthcare provider before you use any medicine or natural remedy. Some nonprescription medicines and herbs are safe. Others can cause problems during pregnancy.
If you have a fever, acetaminophen is usually safe to take in the doses recommended on the package. Do not take it for more than 3 days without consulting your healthcare provider. Do not take aspirin.
For heartburn, ask your healthcare provider what antacids you are allowed to take. Most antacids are safe. Don't take too much of these drugs. Antacids that contain magnesium can cause diarrhea and aluminum-containing antacids can cause constipation.
To relieve hemorrhoids, you may be able to use Preparation H if approved by your healthcare provider.
Ask your healthcare provider before you take sleeping pills, or any drug for a headache, cold, cough, or diarrhea. He or she can tell you what is most likely to be safe and effective for you and your baby.
While you are pregnant, drinking any amount of alcohol is not a safe choice for your baby. Everything you eat and drink goes to the baby. Because of the baby's small size, an alcoholic drink that makes you feel relaxed is dangerous to your baby.
Pregnant women who drink alcohol risk having a child with birth defects. Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) is the term used for certain problems that a child may have if the mother drinks too much alcohol when she is pregnant. FAS affects a child's growth and can cause heart defects, malformed facial features, slowed growth, mental retardation, and nervous system problems.
The more you drink during pregnancy, the greater the danger to your baby. Frequent alcohol users (one or more drinks every week) are much more likely to have children with FAS than women who drink less frequently during pregnancy. However, because we do not know what level of alcohol becomes dangerous, drinking no alcohol at all during pregnancy is the only sure way to avoid any risk of problems from alcohol.
The best time to stop drinking alcoholic beverages is before you become pregnant. If you are pregnant and are still drinking, the time to stop is now. If you usually drink alcohol at social events, ask for soda, fruit juice, water, or alcohol-free beer or wine. Mixed drinks can be made without alcohol. Do not hesitate to ask for support from your family, friends, or healthcare provider to help stop drinking during your pregnancy.
Pregnant women who smoke, or who are exposed to secondhand smoke are more likely to have small babies. These babies are more likely to have problems during labor and delivery. They also have a greater risk of developing health problems within a few months after birth. Smoking increases the risk of miscarriage, premature labor, stillbirth, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), and lifelong disabilities. In addition, there is a possible link between smoking by a mother and attention deficit disorder (hyperactivity) in children.
If you are a smoker, stop now. If you cannot quit completely, try to cut down to fewer than 5 cigarettes a day. Cutting down or stopping smoking during pregnancy reduces the risks. The risks are about the same for women who stop early in pregnancy as for women who are nonsmokers.
Coffee, tea, chocolate, some soft drinks, and some medicines contain caffeine. Drinking caffeine during pregnancy is generally safe. However, women who drink more than five or six cups of coffee a day (600 milligrams of caffeine) are more likely to have low-birth-weight babies and stillbirths. There are some reports that drinking a lot of caffeine may increase the risk of miscarriages. To be on the safe side, limit the caffeine you have each day to less than 200 milligrams (1 or 2 cups of coffee).

U. of Chicago among schools facing sex assault inquiry, government says
ASSOCIATED PRESS May 1, 2014 10:24AM
Updated: May 1, 2014 12:19PM
The Education Department on Thursday took the unprecedented step of releasing the names of the 55 colleges and universities — including the University of Chicago — currently facing a Title IX investigation over their handling of sexual abuse complaints.
The release came two days after a White House task force promised greater government transparency on sexual assault in higher education. Going forward, the department said, it will keep an updated list of schools facing such an investigation and make it available upon request.
The schools range from big public universities like Ohio State University, the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and Arizona State University to private schools like Knox College in Downstate Galesburg, Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania and Catholic University of America in the District of Columbia. Ivy League schools like Harvard, Princeton and Dartmouth are also on the list.
U. of C. spokesman Jeremy Manier said Thursday that the complaint was originally made public in February by the Office for Civil Rights, a branch of the Education Department, and that "building on a history of productive collaboration with the OCR, the university has made every effort to comply with the spirit and letter of this inquiry, and will incorporate any OCR findings into its ongoing efforts to provide for the best possible campus climate.
"The university is committed to ensuring that its educational programs and work environment are free from unlawful discrimination under Title IX," Manier said in the statement.
U. of C. has already created several student programs to deal with the issue, including special training for university police officers in responding to acts of sexual violence, Manier said in the statement.
The university also regularly re-evaluates student disciplinary processes and policy updates, he said.
The school's student newspaper, The Maroon, reported Feb. 11 that the investigation started with a student's complaint from March 2013 alleging the university mishandled disciplinary procedures after she was sexually assaulted by her then-partner during the 2011-2012 academic year.
Before Thursday's announcement, the Education Department previously would confirm such investigations when asked, but students and others were often unaware of them.
"We hope this increased transparency will spur community dialogue about this important issue," Catherine E. Lhamon, the department's assistant secretary for civil rights, said in a statement.
Lhamon said a school's appearance on the list does not mean that it has violated the law but that an investigation is ongoing.
Title IX prohibits gender discrimination at schools that receive federal funds. It is the same law that guarantees girls equal access to sports, but it also regulates institutions' handling of sexual violence and increasingly is being used by victims who say their schools failed to protect them.
Citing research, the White House has said that 1 in 5 female students is assaulted. President Barack Obama appointed a task force comprised of his Cabinet members to review the issue after hearing complaints about the poor treatment of campus rape victims and the hidden nature of such crimes.
The task force announced the creation of a website, notalone.gov, offering resources for victims and information about past enforcement actions on campuses. The task force also made a wide range of recommendations to schools, such as identifying confidential victims' advocates and conducting surveys to better gauge the frequency of sexual assault on their campuses.
The department publicized guidance on Title IX's sexual assault provisions in 2011, and complaints by students have since increased. Complaints, however, don't always lead to an investigation.
The department can withhold federal funding from a school that doesn't comply with the law, but it so far has not used that power and instead has negotiated voluntary resolutions for violators.
Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., and Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., have said non-compliance under the law is "far too common." They say a lack of federal resources is partly to blame for that, and they've sought more money to ensure timely and proper investigations.
Another law that campus sexual assault cases fall under is the Clery Act, which requires colleges and universities to report crime statistics on or near their campuses. It also requires schools to develop prevention policies and ensure victims their basic rights. Investigations under this law are not included in the list that was released.

Blog updates directly to your inbox.
Round Rock Public Library is getting a much-needed makeover and will be closed to the public September 29 through November 2, 2008.
Why? Our library is open 71 hours per week, holidays excepted. That adds up to a great deal of foot traffic and just overall wear and tear. The checkout/checkin area serves a continually growing population, handles mountains of books and materials, and needs to be reconfigured to work more efficiently.
Those of you visiting the library recently have witnessed the beginning stages--painters, offices full of boxes, and staffers peering at blueprints. And while we're closed, we'll share pictures and updates about the renovation. Beginning September 29, we'll post new photos and comments every day or two. Many of these photos will show staff hard at work preparing the library for opening.
For now, some "before" views:
It is hard to imagine that for an entire month the library will be closed. I certain don't begrudge the facelift, but I will miss the excitement I feel whenever I enter the portals, never knowing just what treasure I will find between the pages of your books. However, it will serve to make me appreciate you even more. I eargerly await your re-opening.
Thanks for your kind comment. We will miss you and our other patrons, too! We hope that you'll stop by and stock up on your favorite library materials this week; we're still open through Sunday, September 28. You can use your TexShare card at area libraries while you await our re-opening, and we hope you'll be delighted with our new look and more efficient workflow on first floor. This blog will give you visual updates on our progress, so stay tuned...

In California, we take pride in our homes. Especially when it comes to protecting them, we want to do everything we can to insure our homes from as many risks as possible. Unfortunately, every year, California fires destroy property and even take lives.
So why is fire insurance so important? Nobody wants to see their cherished home burn down along with all of their memories. Insurance won't prevent a fire or bring valued personal belongings back, but it will help to replace them. Unfortunately, California has a high rate of brush fires due to our often dry climate, and this puts homes at much higher risk of fire damage than homes in other states.
Currently a brush fire is raging in the northeastern part of San Diego County. The blaze has burned through 11,000 acres already, after being sparked on Los Coyotes Indian Reservation last Thursday. The blaze has put 1,100 firefighters to work so far. Residents of Coachella valley are keeping a watchful eye over the progress of the blaze. If the fire gets too close then homeowners will be forced to evacuate their homes. Let's hope they all have adequate home insurance coverage.
Accidental fires can happen too. In San Bruno last September, a broken gas line that sent flames through the neighborhood triggered a massive explosion. The fire destroyed 50 houses and took one life. The explosion was heard for miles around and shot a fireball into the air up to 1,000 feet. The nature of California homes means that the timber-framed structures get eaten up in a matter of minutes by flames, so after this explosion, these homes did not stand a chance.
At Sutherland-Scherff, we're homeowners too. That's why we are dedicated to helping California homeowners through making their home insurance decisions. A typical insurance package will include cover for the physical structure of your building; it's replacement costs, personal possessions and additional living expenses in the even of losses covered or natural disasters.
Contact Sutherland-Scherff today for complete guidance on California homeowners insurance.
To get the best home insurance quote for your property, you need to be prepared. If you have all the right facts to hand before you start contacting insurance agents, you'll get a more accurate quote in less time. But are you aware of all the questions they could ask you?

Radiator VideoSaturday, April 19th, 2008
Hello video watchers!
Have you ever wondered what it takes to make a radiator like the one in your car? Well, car radiators don't drop out of the skies or grow on trees, as this video about how to manufacture radiator pieces makes perfectly obvious.
When I think of a new radiator, I think of the finished products stacked in a radiator warehouse like discount dealer Radiator.com. Neat little rectangular things made to slip into their precise places near the engine in order to keep it cool.
This video takes us back a little earlier in the lifecycle of a Radiator to a plant where four workmen are busy cutting, twirling things, measuring pieces and machining a bunch of what look like giant sections of Radiators, hopefully soon to become more recognizable auto car radiators like the ones that I am familiar with. No plastic radiators here. These guys are busy with the makings of a metal radiator, if the forklift is any indication of the tremendous weight of these pieces.
And then there is the two-times taller than the men who are working height of the finished products. This working warehouse is huge, busy and efficient looking. The guys seem to be taking great pains to turn out precise products and the music (there are no words in this video) has a sort of driving, no-nonsense quality that makes you want to say, "Yeah, guys! You go to it!" Thanks for this video and music interlude. It will help me to appreciate the little (by comparison) radiator under my Eclipse's hood.
– Ciao, Susie

National Park Guide: Indiana Dunes Lakeshore
Don't let the name fool you. There's much more to the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore than sand and water.
The 15,000-acre park, tucked along the southern shore of Lake Michigan, includes a unique collection of natural habitats and man-made attractions.
JUST FOR SUMMER: 51 great American beaches
PHOTOS: Tour some of the prettiest beaches
PHOTOS: National Parks' scenic views, wildlife
Visitors can observe more than 1,000 plant and animal species in the dunes, marshes and swamps, pocket prairie, sphagnum bogs and several types of woodlands, including a Black Oak savannah that's home to the endangered Karner Blue butterfly.
More than 40 miles of trails offer opportunities for hiking, bicycling and horseback riding. And sections of the 15 miles of lakeshore are open for swimming, fishing and sightseeing.
"There is a lot more to the park than most people expect," public information officer Bruce Rowe says. "We encourage people to get beyond the beach and see all the other spectacular sights."
PHOTOS: Top 10 most-visited national parks
KEN BURNS: National parks feed America's soul
SPECIAL EDITION: Must-have guide to national parks
Rowe says the park, established in 1966, ranks seventh among all U.S. national parks in plant diversity.
Share your national park photos
Here's how to participate: Send us or tag us on any photo of you at a national park. List the names and ages of everyone pictured and tell us about your unique park story or experience.
By submitting a photo, you ensure that you have permission to submit the photo and that it is an original and unique image that we may use as we see fit.
E-mail your image(s) to email@example.com, tweet @USATODAYTravel and use hashtag #parksphotos or post your photos to Instagram and include the hashtag #parksphotos. We'll be looking for your photos all summer long!
For most visitors, Rowe says, the primary attractions are the dunes — the tallest reaches nearly 200 feet in the air — and miles of lakeshore.
"The park is one of the places I like to take out-of-town visitors, and they are always impressed," says David Sanders, 50, of West Lafayette, Ind. "There are just so many different environments in a relatively confined space."
The dunes, which roughly align in four sets of ridges stepped back from the lakeshore, are dramatic reminders of the retreat of a glacier that covered the area more than 10,000 years ago, Rowe says.
The dune complex closest to the lakeshore remains alive, he says, with winds blowing off the lake pushing the ridge inland by a few feet each year. Visitors can follow a marked trail to the top of the most popular and tallest moving dune, Mount Baldy, which rises 126 feet above the lake surface.
About the park
Size: 15,000 acres
Visitors: 1,840,513 in 2011
Established: 1966
History: The park, tucked into an urban area not far from Chicago, includes 15 miles of the southern shoreline of Lake Michigan, dunes that rise 200 feet, oak savannas, swamps, bogs, marshes, prairies, forests and a river.
When visiting: Visitor Center is at 1215 N. State Road 49, Porter, Ind. 46304. Visitor information: 800-283-8687.
Of note: The park ranks seventh in plant diversity among all national parks, with feeding and resting habitat for migrating birds, including a rookery for great blue herons.

X-linked agammaglobulinemia (a-gam-uh-glob-u-lih-NEE-me-uh) — or XLA — is an inherited (genetic) immune system disorder that reduces your ability to fight infections. People with XLA may experience infections of the inner ear, sinuses, respiratory tract, bloodstream and internal organs.
XLA affects males almost exclusively, although females can be genetic carriers of the condition. Diagnosis of XLA often occurs in infancy or early childhood, once it's clear that a child has experienced repeated infections. Sometimes, diagnosis doesn't occur until adulthood.

Since 1986, Nautilus (formerly The New Music-Theater Ensemble) has been dedicated to the development of new operas and other forms of music-theater, along with innovative productions of existing work. Our goals include the formation of partnerships between creators, performers, and audiences, and the creation of professional training programs for artists. We use music-theater as a tool to create enriching experiences for artists and audiences, supporting the individual and collective growth of the human spirit.
Joan Barber, Timothy Sawyer, Gretchen Johnson, Marcia Bellamy, Paul Pruitt, Cynthia Lohman, and Stephen Kalm in BOOK OF DAYS (by Meredith Monk) 1988
"What distingushes Meredith Monk's work [in BOOK OF DAYS] is not the well-worn plot but the complex and joyous ways she enriches experience with chanting, counterpoint, repetition, dense chords, and open lines... Monk's vision, achieved through finely focused sound and gesture, pulses with the reality of genuine human emotion."
Nautilus began in 1986 as a program of the Minnesota Opera and spun off independently in 1992. The following programs are some of the activities we offer throughout the year:
Artist Development
We offer multiple training opportunities for artistic growth, including Performing Power classes for local performers, the annual Wesley Balk Opera/Music-Theater Institute for performers, directors, and coaches (now in its 35th year), and a Composer-Librettist Studio (now in its 27th year), held here in the Twin Cities and other sites around the country.
Rough Cuts
Rough Cuts is an informal series of works-in-progress, dialogues between artists and audiences, and explorations of the creative process. Repertoire includes projects under development by Nautilus, works by independent artists who need a performance venue, and partnerships with other organizations creating and presenting music-theater.
We continue to initiate the creation of new operas and other forms of music-theater, developing them all the way through to fully-staged productions. We perform at a variety of locations throughout the Twin Cities, in such venues as the Southern Theater or the Minneapolis Theater Garage. On occasion, we also present innovative productions of existing work.
Community Commissions
This program seeks partnerships with organizations and individuals who are interested in engaging Nautilus artists to create music-theater or related developmental activities for their communities, such as corporate venues and social service organizations. We provide artists who create and perform, along with various workshops and classes.
"Selig's enigmatic text [for RED TIDE] has been beautifully set to music by Sherman, whose choice of instruments - piano, accorddion, cello, and saxophone - gives the score warmth and richness. Thee long saxophone and cello duet that opens the opera is especially lovely."
nautilus (nôt´-tuh-luhs) n. [from the Greek nautautilos, literally, sailor, one who navi- gates or explores, esp. on the unknown sea; from root naus-, ship]. 1. A cephalopod mollusk with a spiral-shaped shell, consisting of a series of chambers created incrementally. Its geometric precision has inspired poets and artists for centuries. 2. The name of the world's first nuclear submarine, made famous in 1958 for a non-stop voyage under the polar ice pack. It was christened after the underwater vessel of the same name from Jules Verne's 1870 futuristic novel, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, which tells the adventures of Captain Nemo, a wild-eyed, bearded fanatic. 3. An integrated exercise system designed to stretch and develop all of one's muscles, resulting in greatly increased flexibility and strength. 4. The new name of the artists formerly known as The New Music-Theater Ensemble.
"Jason Robert Brown's THE LAST FIVE YEARS is an insightful production... Brown writes songs that linger in the mind, and those songs are brought to vibrant life by two expert singer-actors, Bradley Greenwald and Norah Long, in this smart production directed by Ben Krywosz. [He] lets them tell their story clearly and with ample emotion... It's a lovely show... As Broadway musicals get bigger, becoming more about machinery and product tie-ins than wit or genuine emotion, it's refreshing to be reminded that small can be good -- and maybe even better..."

Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has long personified the craven arrogance of the PC Pentagon. Three years ago, in the last year of the Bush Administration, Mullen told a Jerusalem TV station that the US "has been at Israel's side for all of 60 years, it will be for the next 60 years, 100 years and 1,000 years." He now tells Congress that "We're Going to Be There [Afghanistan] Longer Than 2014," thus contradicting his Commander-in-Chief.
Apparently, Mullen learned the Constitution from Professor Obama. Well, Admiral, if at first you don't succeed, try again: The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs does not decide how long "We" are going to support Israel or be in Afghanistan. Neither does the President. That decision lies with the Congress. Shame on the senators who unanimously ignored this principle and refrained from admonishing Mullen on his effrontery.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, who testified with Mullen, revealed that "we're in the process" of negotiating an "enduring presence" in Afghanistan. Again, not one senator on the Armed Services Committee condemned either Panetta or Mullen for their unconstitutional rogue actions.
Predictions: The treaty produced by Panetta's "negotiations" will never be submitted to the Senate for its advice and consent. And the Pentagon lapdogs on the Senate Armed Services Committee, awash in contributions from Pentagon suppliers, contractors, and lobbyists, will refuse to cut the Pentagon budget, pleading "patriotism." Panetta's predecessor, Secretary Gates, said in departing that no one at the Pentagon knows who works there or how much money they spend.
Prescription: Cut the defense budget ten percent per year until it reaches the level of the most dire years of the "Soviet Threat." Country'll grow.9:35 am on September 26, 2011 Email Christopher Manion

The Tragedy of Othello, The Moor of Venice is a tragedy by William Shakespeare written around 1603. The first known performance of this play was on November 1, 1604, at Whitehall Palace in London.
Othello, a Moor who has just eloped with the fair Desdemona when the play opens, leaves Venice to command the Venetian armies against the Turks on the island of Cyprus, accompanied by his new wife and his lieutenant, Cassio. When they arrive, they find that the weather has destroyed the Turkish fleet. Iago, a standard bearer, repeatedly tries to undo Othello, finally succeeding when he plants Desdemona's handkerchief on Cassio, managing to convince Othello that his wife has been unfaithful with the lieutenant. Othello kills Desdemona out of jealousy, before Iago's wife, Emilia, eventually reveals that Desdemona's affair was but an invention of Iago's. Iago immediately kills his wife also, and Othello then commits suicide in grief. At the end, it can be assumed, Iago is taken off to be tortured and executed.
The plot for Othello was developed from a story in Cinthio's collection, the Hecatommithi, which it follows closely. The only named character in Cinthio's story is "Disdemona", which means "unfortunate" in Greek; the other characters are identified only as "the standard-bearer", "the captain", and "the Moor". In the original, the standard-bearer lusts after Disdemona and is spurred to revenge when she rejects him.
Shakespeare invented a new character, Roderigo, who pursues the Moor's wife and is killed while trying to murder the captain. Unlike Othello, the Moor in Cinthio's story never repents the murder of his beloved, and both he and the standard-bearer escape Venice and are killed much later. Cinthio also drew a moral (which he placed in the mouth of the lady) that European women are unwise to marry the temperamental males of other nations.
Othello's race
Although the play is very much concerned with racial difference, the protagonist's specific race is not clearly indicated by Shakespeare. Othello is referred to as a "Moor", but for Elizabethan Englishmen, this term could refer either to the Berbers (or Arabs) of North Africa, or to the people we would now call "black" (that is, people of sub-Saharan African descent). In his other plays, Shakespeare had previously depicted both a Berber Moor (in The Merchant of Venice) and a black Moor (in Titus Andronicus). In Othello, however, the references to the character's physical features do not settle the question of which race Shakespeare envisaged.
In his Arden edition of the play, E.A.J. Honigmann summarises the contradictory evidence. The various uses of the word 'black' (for example, "Haply for I am black") do not help, since 'black' could simply mean 'swarthy' for Elizabethans[1]. Iago twice uses the word 'Barbary' or 'Barbarian' to refer to Othello, apparently referring to the Barbary coast inhabited by the "white" Moors. Yet Iago also calls him 'the thicklips', which seems to refer to black physiognomy. Honigmann says that since these comments by Iago are all insults, they need not be taken literally.[2]
Honigmann also notes one piece of external evidence: an ambassador of the Arab King of Barbary with his retinue stayed in London in 1600 for several months and occasioned much discussion. Honigmann wonders whether Shakespeare's play, written only a year or two afterwards, might have been inspired by the ambassador. [3] Also, it should be noted that a real Othello would very likely be a Berber or Arab, and would never be a full blooded sub-Saharan African.
Popular prejudice among average readers and theatre directors today leans towards the "black" interpretation, and more "realistic" Othellos have been rare.[4]
Themes and tropes
Signifier / Signified
Othello subverts traditional theatrical symbolism. A contemporary audience would have seen black skin as a sign of barbarism or satanism as Aaron is in Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus: a "swarth Cimmerian... of body's hue spotted, detested and abominable" (Titus Andronicus, Act II, scene iii, ll. 72-74). A white soldier would have been understood of honesty. Iago indeed actively tries to convince other characters that Othello is a "barbary horse" that "covers" Desdemona, or a "black ram", horned and animalistically "tupping" her (Act I, scene i, l. 108, ll. 85-86); and that he himself is truthful to a fault. In Othello, however, the black character is "noble" and Christian; and the white soldier is a scheming liar.
Othello thus constantly challenges the link between a physical signifier and what is signified by it. For example, Iago – whose job as standard-bearer is to hold a sign of loyalty to Othello – says, of pretending to like the Moor: "Though I do hate him as I do hell pains/ Yet for necessity of present life/ I must show out a flag and sign of love/ Which is indeed but sign" (Act I, scene i, ll. 151-154a). Desdemona, too, sees a distinction between signifier and signified, saying she "saw Othello's visage in his mind" – not in his actual face (Act I, scene iii, l. 247). The play thus argues that the relationship between signifier and signified is arbitrary; the plot itself hinging on the significance of an utterly "made-up" sign – a handkerchief made to signify infidelity.
When Iago tells him Desdemona is an adulteress, Othello cries "Her name, that was as fresh/ As Dian's visage, is now begrimed and black/ As mine own face" – leading to a suicidal conclusion: "If there be cords or knives/ Poison or fire, or suffocating streams/ I'll not endure it" (Act III, scene iii, ll. 383b-387a).
White / Black
The most basic aspects of traditional Western symbology – that white signifies purity and black signifies evil – are repeatedly challenged in Othello. One example is in the character of Bianca. Her name in Italian means "white", yet, as Iago tells the audience, her name is again "but sign" of purity, as she is in fact "a houswife that by selling her desires buys herself bread and clothes" (Act IV, scene i, ll. 95-96). Ironically, just before Desdemona pleads with Othello that she is not a whore, Bianca too protests to an accuser that she is "no strumpet, but of life as honest/ As you that thus abuse me" (Act V, scene i, ll. 122-123)– leading the audience to realize that, just as with Desdemona, the only evidence anyone has that Bianca is a whore is Iago's word, and Cassio's (he calls her a "customer," whore {Act IV, scene i, l. 120}).
Heaven / Hell
Heaven nevertheless remains a signifier of truth, and hell a signifier of misrepresentation in the play. The words thus recur frequently throughout Othello, as Othello struggles to join other signifiers to them: for example he says to an innocent Desdemona that "Heaven doth truly know that thou art false as hell". This shows strong contrasts between the two.
Iago / Othello
Although the title suggests that the tragedy belongs primarily to Othello, Iago also plays an undeniably important role. For one, he speaks more lines than Othello. It is also Iago who manipulates all other characters at his will, trapping them in an intricate net of lies. A. C. Bradley—and more recently Harold Bloom—have been major advocates of this interpretation.
Other critics, most notably in the later twentieth century (after F. R. Leavis), have focused on Othello. Apart from the common question of jealousy, some argue that his honour is his undoing, while others address the hints of instability in his person (in Act IV Scene i, for example, he falls "into an epilepsy").

Dispatch Center Sends Firefighters To Wrong Address
Three homes were damaged in a residential fire in Oakdale while residents waited for firefighters who were sent to the wrong address in the wrong city. Officials at the Stanislaus County regional 911 center are trying to figure out how the mistake took place.
An abandoned two story house on California Avenue was completely destroyed. The estimated loss was put at $150 thousand by Oakdale fire officials. A house next door sustained $75 thousand damage although it's 92 year old owner was evacuated by police.
A third home had minor scorching and smoke damage.
Police were on the scene long before firefighters because dispatchers called the Modesto Fire Department instead. The burned homes were on California Avenue, but there is a California Avenue in Modesto as well. It wasn't until six minutes later when more calls came in that the Oakdale Fire Department was called.
"We had a delay. We;re always trying to get there as fast as we can," said Division Chief Rick Fields of the Oakdale Fire Department. Fields said there was a ten minute span from the time 911 was called in to the Oakdale Police Department and then transferred to the 911 center. There may have been a six minute delay caused by the snafu. He said he couldn't speculate whether the delay cause additional damage.
Neighbors think so. Greg Persons lives across the street from the burned homes. He said the evacuation of the elderly lady whose house was damaged was not a sure thing because she has trouble walking.
"That could have been disastrous and could have been fatal, easily," said Persons.
"None of us are happy about getting the wrong address, not the employees involved and not the fire service," said Lucien Thomas, director of the regional 911 center.
He said there are four or five California Avenues in the county wide dispatch region, but dispatchers are trained to double check addresses. The center will check procedures to make sure the mishap isn't repeated. Thomas also said he can't speak about a personnel issue that could be a part of the investigation.
"We'll take appropriate action once we complete the investigation," said Thomas.Copyright © 2014, The Morning Call

I hope that each of you
who are as lucky as I am, to have the GREATEST Mom in the world,
took the time on Sunday to say so to your own...
Years ago, when it was painfully obvious that my passion for
model airplanes had turned into an even bigger passion for the real
thing (hence the reason for those mysterious buzz-jobs my
neighborhood experienced throughout my high school years), my Mom
was faced with a tricky problem. Flying scared the absolute hell
out of her.
Her Father, a Doctor, had taken the family to an airshow (while
she was much younger), in which a military parachutist perished in
an accident... and my Grandfather had the sad job of pronouncing
the poor fellow dead... a scene she witnessed. It was a tough
memory to get over and resulted in her life-long fear of
So, naturally, her first-born develops a massive addiction to
this flying bug... as God has a sense of humor about things like
that. Surprisingly, as much as it scared her, she didn't try
to quash my passion for flying. More amazing; in an effort to
finally break with her fear of this aviation thing, and in an
attempt to understand my interest, my Mom (still with a raging fear
of flying) took some flying lessons... just so that she could
better relate to that crazy son of hers.
If that's not a Mother's love... what is?
It's been quite a few years since then... and in that time,
she's managed to venture to airshows in which I was
performing, read way too many of my aviation articles and books,
and kept up with enough of the technology to understand what I was
babbling on about (over and over again). In a truly equal
partnership with my Pop, she raised seven kids, held elected
office, earned a degree, and gave my family an example of what a
Mom really should be... not to mention setting a
stirring example of what a truly amazing woman can do when she
sets herself to it. She is a brilliant woman, totally dedicated to
her family and her marriage, and possibly the most liberated woman
I have ever met. I'm damned proud to be her son...
So... to those of you, who like me, have good reason to
believe that their Moms are the best in the world, I toast your
good fortune and wish your Moms (especially mine) a very Happy
Mother's Day. -- J.R. Campbell, ANN E-I-C

I created a set of bookmarks and a bookmark holder using the new Bookmark Duo Die-namics and Stamp Set. This would be a great gift for your book club members or for anyone who loves to read.
For the front of the bookmark holder I used the new Designer Labels 4 STAX Die-namics for the sentiment panel. The sentiment was stamped with Cranberry Adirondack ink on a piece of X-Press It card stock. I used Red Hot and Black Licorice card stock. The patterned paper is from Karen Foster's High Society collection and Jillibean Soup Blossom Soup collection.
I used the new Medium Leafy Flourish Die-namics along with the new Layered Rose Die-namics to create the flower. I added a black felt brad to finish off the flower.
I kept the inside of the bookmark folder fairly simple as I didn't want to add any extra bulk. I used the Medium Simply Scallops Die-namics layered with the new Triple Scallop Borders Die-namics. I really love the look you get when you layer these two dies together.
Here are the three bookmarks. I tried to keep the bookmarks failry flat as I wanted them to lay nicely in books. Of course, the flowers at the top of each bookmark have a little extra dimension as they will peak out the top of a book.
Speaking of the flowers, I used the same Layered Rose Die-namics for all of the flowers. I used different combinations of the dies to create the unique flowers on each bookmark.
The first bookmark has a Black Licorice base, the ribbon is Red Hot.
This bookmark has a Red Hot card stock base and the ribbon is Sweet Tooth.
The last bookmark has a base of Sweet Tooth card stock, the ribbon is Black Licorice.
One last look at the whole set together.

Vraiment tres bandante comme video. Javais juste le gout de fourrer cette fille. Jaime beaucoup ces grosses balles bien bandante. Jaime bien la queue du gars. Javais juste le gout de lecher le sperme quel avait laisser sur son corps

I go back and forth on whether I prefer firmer or bouncier tits. If I go bouncier, then hers are the best I've ever seen...for bounciness, plus pink nipples with huge areolas! I just hope I can fuck a girl with tits that nice some day.

Nice when you say you need help around the house and your stud nextdoor is ready to come to my rescue.
