RELEASED: Oct. 27, 2006
EAU CLAIRE — A First Fridays presentation on Nov. 3 titled "The Internet Revisited" will offer a tour of interesting, useful and even "nosy" sites of interest to senior citizens.
A free continental breakfast will precede the presentation. Doors open for breakfast at 8:30 a.m., and the program will begin at 9 a.m. in the Memorial Lounge at Christ Church Cathedral (corner of Lake and Farwell Streets in downtown Eau Claire).
The presenters, Jeri Weiser and Judy Hull, have both worked for the Computing Assistance and Training unit of Learning and Technology Services at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire for more than five years. CA&T provides one-on-one assistance and general and customized workshops for anyone in the university community needing help with technology. During their presentations, they will make suggestions about effective search methods for locating sites of interest on a variety of topics and how to evaluate the accuracy of online information.
Sites to be reviewed at the First Fridays presentation include the Wisconsin Circuit Court, state and U.S. senators and representatives, Center for Disease Control, WebMD, Medline, National Park Service, weather, driving directions, urban legends on snopes.com, and Caring Bridge.
First Fridays occurs on the first Friday of each month October through May, with the exception of January, at no cost to the senior community. Persons whose "season passes" have been stamped each month will be eligible for a grand prize drawing at the May presentation.
First Fridays began three years ago when the Activities and Programs Office at UW-Eau Claire and Christ Church Cathedral in downtown Eau Claire teamed up to present a new monthly program for senior citizens. The program is funded in part by the UW-Eau Claire Foundation Community Outreach Program for the Arts. First Fridays is coordinated by Beverly Soll and Jennifer Brockpahler of the UW-Eau Claire Activities and Programs office, and is hosted by Scott and Heather Kirby of Christ Church Cathedral.
The mission of First Fridays is to provide no-cost entertainment and educational experiences for senior citizens of the extended Chippewa Valley community through shared community and university sponsorship.
For more information about First Fridays or to be placed on a mailing list, call 715-836-2787 [ARTS].

About This Activity
Auburn University was established in 1856 as the East Alabama Male College, 20 years after the city of Auburn's founding. In 1872, under the Morrill Act, the school became the first land-grant college in the South and was renamed the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Alabama. In 1899 the name again was changed, to the Alabama Polytechnic Institute. Finally, in 1960 the name of the school was changed to Auburn University, a title more in keeping with its location, and expressing the varied academic programs and larger curriculum of a major university.

I think I'm going to have to say goodbye
|Sun, 12-11-2011 - 5:55pm
I've never had to post in this section before on an expecting forum and am very sad to do so now.
|Tue, 12-13-2011 - 7:20pm
Any updates? I am so sorry that you are going through this, and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!
|Wed, 12-14-2011 - 10:28am
Update: it was/is a miscarriage. We're sad, but hopeful and praying for the blessing of another baby. I'd love one soon, but am praying for acceptance of God's wisdom and timing in this. I had this happen one other time, but I got a bfp before AF started and then 2 days later when AF was supposed to start I started bleeding. I chalked it up to a bad test and false bfp, but I'm sure it was the same thing. And then I went on to have a beautiful baby girl (I got PG 4 months later) w/o trying. So I'm praying that we'll be blessed soon. Thank you for your prayers.
|Sat, 12-17-2011 - 12:33am
I'm so sorry for your loss. Many hugs and positive healing vibes your way. Best wishes to you and your family.

Simon Wiesenthal (eBook)
Simon Wiesenthal (eBook)
With 16 pages of black-and-white illustrations
Now in paperback, the first fully documented biography of the legendary Polish-born Nazi hunter—a revelatory account of a man whose life, though part invention, was wholly dedicated to ensuring both that the Nazis be held responsible for their crimes and that their destruction of European Jewry never be forgotten.
Within days of being liberated from the Mauthausen concentration camp, Simon Wiesenthal had assembled a list of nearly 150 Nazi war criminals, the first of dozens of such lists he would compile over a lifetime as a Nazi hunter. A hero in the eyes of many, Wiesenthal was also attacked for his unrelenting pursuit of justice for crimes committed in a past that many preferred to forget. With access to Wiesenthal's private papers and to American, East German, and Israeli government archives, Tom Segev sheds new light on Wiesenthal's most closely guarded secrets: his true role in the capture of Adolf Eichmann, his connection to Isreal's Mossad, his controversial investigative techniques, his unlikely friendships with Kurt Waldheim and Albert Speer, his rivalry with Elie Wiesel—making clear that the truth of Wiesenthal's existence was far more complex and compelling than the legends (often of his own making) that surrounded him.
From the Trade Paperback edition.
About the Author
Tom Segev, who writes a weekly column in Ha'aretz, Israel's leading daily newspaper, is the author of The Seventh Million: The Israelis and the Holocaust and other pathbreaking books, including One Palestine, Complete, which was named one of the ten best books of 2000 by the New York Times Book Review. He lives in Jerusalem.
Praise for Simon Wiesenthal…
Praise for Tom Segev's Simon Wiesenthal: The Life and Legends
"Mr. Segev, justly celebrated for his histories of formative moments of the state of Israel, is as careful a biographer as he is an historian....Gripping yet sober, this meticulous portrait of a complicated man is unlikely to be bettered."
—The Economist
"[A] meticulous yet forceful new biography...[Segev's] book delivers not merely an intimate account of Wiesenthal's life and times, but also judicious examinations of the many controversial and little-known aspects of that life....It is a serious pleasure to imagine a new generation of readers discovering his life in this careful telling."
—The New York Times
"Segev reveals…a man of profound conflict and contradiction, a lightning rod for controversy and recrimination, but unquestionably a crucial figure in the struggle to retrieve and preserve the evidence of the Holocaust….Segev himself sticks to the 'true story'. That's his stock-in-trade and that's what makes all of his work so compelling. But telling the unvarnished truth ultimately honors the man he is writing about, and Wiesenthal emerges from Segev's book as an even richer and more consequential character than the one he invented for himself."
—Los Angeles Times
"Segev is one of the world's great investigative reporters—in a class with bloodhounds like Seymour Hersh and the late David Halberstam….The real achievement of this warts-and-all biography [is] that truth, justice, and memory are the province not of saints, but of flawed human beings."
—Susan Jacoby, The Washington Post
"Tom Segev has produced a biography that is a model of fascinating description and measured analysis."
—The Sunday Times (UK)
"Segev paints a vivid portrait of this human dynamo who made it his life's work to make people not only confront and remember the Nazi genocide but also to punish as many of its perpetrators as possible."
—San Francisco Chronicle
"A brilliant and gripping account of an extraordinary life. It draws upon extensive research to offer new insights into the complex personality as well as the notable achievements of Simon Wiesenthal."
—Sir Ian Kershaw, author of Hitler: A Biography
Praise for Earlier Books by Tom Segev
The Seventh Million: The Israelis and the Holocaust
"Richly documented and written with great passion."
—Elie Wiesel, Los Angeles Times Book Review
"Superb . . . Throws new light on the central trauma of Israeli society, and the uses and abuses of this trauma for political manipulation. I, for one, learned from this book that, in order to survive, societies must learn not only to remember but also to forget."
—Amos Elon, author of The Israelis: Founders and Sons
"Indispensable reading for anyone interested in Israel's self-image and identity . . . Any further discussion of the Holocaust must confront Tom Segev's work."
—George L. Mosse, author of Nazi Culture
1967: Israel and the Year That Transformed the Middle East
"A marvelous achievement . . . Anyone curious about the extraordinary six days of Arab-Israeli war will learn much from it."
—The Economist
"Tom Segev's 1967 offers a brilliant description of the Six-Day War in its widest context . . . This is probably the best book on those most fateful days in the history of Israel and the Middle East."
—Saul Friedländer, author of The Years of Extermination: Nazi Germany and the Jews, 1939–1945
One Palestine, Complete: Jews and Arabs Under the British Mandate
"The best single account of Palestine under the British mandate . . . This will doubtlessly become the authoritative text for the pre-state history of Israel."
—Omer Bartov, New York Times Book Review
"A brilliant, truthful, and compassionate book . . . In all the vast literature about Palestine/Israel, this is the only book with equal insight into all of the protagonists."
—Arthur Hertzberg, author of Jews: The Essence and Character of a People

I live in Turkey. Because of the taxes, cosmetic prices are higher than most of the other countries. Anyway I paid a little fortune - 240 turkish liras- , I had enough faith that its gonna work. Maybe my expectations were too high I dont know. My skin color is nc15-20( not that yellow, on the neutral side). I bought the color 101.This color is peachy neutral undertone. Because of the little peachiness it brightens up my complexion.The problem about this foundation are
1) it doesnt last. REALLY. I can only manage this work max 5 hours. It slides off after a while. I cannot make this foundation to stick to my face. I used different primers and powders. I tried with cargo hd primer - haurglass skin veil primer - cicaplast - porefessional. None of them make any difference. I also tried nars light reflecting setting powder - kryolan transparant - givenchy prisme libre - la praire cellular powder treatment - too faced invisible. The best manageble combo is hourglass primer and nars light reflecting setting powder.
2)It feels like you cannot spread this because of thickness. But somehow after you rubbed into the skin, it melts on the skin so much and you realize you need to blend more and more. Eventually you end up with overblending . Therefore getting good coverage becomes difficult. First you think 1 pump probably wont be enough, but then you realize nearly half pump is enough to cover your entire face. By the way applying with beauty blender cause so much product waste. You should apply it with your hands first. Then you should use bb to get hd effect.
3) It oxidized a little. You dont look like orange but you look definetely a little bit darker.
Dont get me wrong it is a good foundation. Look like a skin. It gives a beautiful glow to the skin. Unfortunately, it didnt wow me. You can get the same effect with
1) rimmel wake me up (if you can get a good color match)
2) armani designer lift ( only gives same effect if you apply little amount. Remember less is more.)
3) skin79 bb cream (espeacially the pink and gold ones)

For once I was smart and asked Ellis Faas for samples and waited the nearly 4 weeks. They finally came and I expected a ton from this foundation. It sounded like it would tick all of my boxes but sadly it did not.
Coverage: On me was almost non-existent. I get better coverage from tinted moisturizers.
Texture: Goes on super light but as the day wore on I felt I could scrape this off of my skin with a fingernail. It felt pasty and looked powdery after 8 hours of wear.
Colors: I received the 1st four colors and could wear 02 and 03. 02 looked too light on me at first but oxidized to probably the better color choice. Comparing the two side by side, 02 is more peachy in the tube. 03 looked better initially but did not wear on my skin as well, color wise. I am NC 25, Chantecaille vanilla, L'Oreal nude beige, MUFE 20.
Wearability: Lasted all day on me but like I said above I wanted to remove it after 8-10 hours but I made myself wear it all day until bed so I could really see what it was all about.
Finish: A lot of people talk about the luminising qualities of this foundation but I didn't experience that at all. I didn't see any minimizing of flaws, any betterment of the look of my skin. Nothing to speak of. I look better with just concealer, and I like and wear foundation most days.
Skin Reaction: This made me break out! Haven't done that in awhile to a makeup so pretty surprised.
Thank God I got samples first. I was so ready to jump on this band wagon but this just was no good for me.
As a makeup fanatic, I'm always on the lookout for the latest and greatest, so when I learned about Ellis Faas and her makeup line, I tried out a bunch from her line, including the raved about $90 foundation. At this price point, I was really expecting perfection, so I had high expectations to begin with. For reference: I am NC 18-20, neutral to cool undertones and 102L is my match (surprisingly, I have seen this shade match several people lighter and slightly darker so it actually covers the light to light-medium range well. For fair choose 101, for medium range near NC25 recommend 103)
Starting with the PROs, this medium to full coverage foundation applies smooth and lighter than you expect for the coverage ( but still heavier than you see with sheerer formulas that give lighter coverage), and does a good job wearing like your-skin-but better with a medium luminosity (doesn't require a highlighter mixed in or radiant primer to achieve). Instant love. Films beautifully. SPF 15, no flashback. Ideal for normal to dry and combination skin in fair weather. Texture leans to creamy consistency but more like you expect in a light gel formula (even though it's not). This formula will slip in excessive heat, but I actually do expect that in any liquid formula so I don't take points off. I have combination skin with some dry patches and this did not accentuate pores, did not sink into fine lines, did not cling to dry patches, and did not oxidize noticeably-- all key factors for judging a good foundation. Good for year-round use except for extreme heat/humidity.
CONs would be that this formula has limited longevity, which is unacceptable at this price point. With my normal/combination skin, my T-zone can get shiny, but usually can get away without blotting or minimal blotting until 8th or 9th hour. With this foundation, I had to blot and powder by the 5th hour...and it was much oilier than normal. The rest of the application did not have any issues under normal (fair to cold) weather conditions but the T-zone was noticeably oily despite testing use with primers, powders, setting sprays, or finishing powders. (This could be perfect with a mattifying primer for oily skin types, but I do not like matte primers so I did not try) Provided average lasting power around my typical problem areas like redness around nose. Also limited shades which can be a problem for those who require more than neutral undertones or deeper shade ranges.
Does this beat Lancome, Nars, Aucoin, YSL, Guerlain, Chanel, and Armani? In my opinion, yes. But! At this price point, I do expect much more...even at $60 (where most of the comps range) I want to see better longevity in the formula given there are so many good alternatives priced more competitively. But the wear and coverage is good enough that I will continue to wear this until it runs out , and just make sure to blot and powder consistently. As this is EF's first and only foundation on the market (she has the same formula in her signature pen tube -- but this costs even more per fl oz so unless you require for travel I highly recommend the full bottle). This is a good foundation debut, but for the cost, I will wait for the next latest-and-greatest to hit her collection instead of purchasing again.

I have come out of reviewing retirement to write about this particular foundation. It is like NONE other that I have ever tried. It is without doubt, alchemy in a bottle. Most liquid (and really any formula) foundations always oxidize on me, so it's exteremely frustrating to shop, as, when I apply something in the store, almost always it changes colors within 1/2 hour! As predictable as the sun following the moon! Even a sales lady at Nordstorm was astounded watching another well known liquid turn orange on me before her very eyes a few weeks ago! (NB, I had no primer on, and vary primers at home, so what's underneath is not the culprit). So, I usually buy one shade lighter than what matches me in the store, or sadly, two shades, to mix, which is a gamble in practical use, because I have a chance of it not oxidizing enough and can look ghostly in public!
Anyway, after reading other reviews on this extremely expensive stuff, I begrudgingly tried it on in shades 101 and 102 ( the former seemingly more yellow toned and very very light, while the latter was more of an NW20 shade on me). I walked around the store, and tried to wait the required 1/2 hour for orange-turning, and WHAT? It did not happen! Instead, my face looked absolutely fantastic, lit, awake, energized, and fresh! NO oxidation, and NO glitter, but an UNBELIEVEABLE luminesscence looked back at me!
I used unbelieveable restraint, and waited to purchase this infernally expensive product. Instead, I went out, went home, and waited at least six hours to review and re-think whether I wanted to spend 90 bucks on make up when shoes are on sale! (Please note, I am not interested in the trendy pen-type applicators, so the full bottle was my only consideration). I looked in my home mirror and was absolutely thrilled at my complexion. Not only did both shades completely conform into my skin, they both looked seamless, true-to-my-neutral coloring, and I was absolutely dazzled that my skin was even, "lit-from-within" and glowed (with NO sparkles!)
I am addicted to this stuff, and will repurchase it til the end of time! Please try it, it may save you a lot of frustration and money wasted on finding your holy grail, which you will not only love, but USE!

This foundation glides on beautifully, but for me it only lasts an hour or two and then it's disappeared. I have a little trouble blending the colour into my jawline without it standing out. It has a beautiful finish and it really does look natural, but for me it doesn't last long enough to warrant the expensive price tag.
A medium-coverage foundation that really does blend to look like bare skin.
The YouTube gurus are right: This is a game-changer that hits the sweet spot of good coverage, great blendability, excellent wear and supreme undetectability. I don't know what chemists Ellis Faas is using, but they've knocked it out of the park with both the concealer and the foundation in her line. (Not so much with the click pens; get this in the bottle.) Use a damp Beauty Blender to get this to glide like buttah.
So, any quibbles? Price: $90 an ounce. Ouch. If you have good (unlined, unblemished) skin, you might not need this level of technology. But if you're old and speckled, as I am, $90 almost doesn't seem like too much. I wear S101 on my pale (NC10 or so, Color IQ 3Y01), neutral-to-warm skin.
6 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I didn't like their click pen system so I bought the glass bottle one. Although im a bit obsessed with foundation, this is the only one I've been using consistently. It's pricey, but it works for my dry skin. I don't have blendability issues like others and I tend I use my fingers or mac's oval brush when I want to layer for more coverage. The finish is dewy but not overly so, very natural, didn't emphasize pores either . Coverage? I'd say medium coverage and buildable
its kind of ironic because right before i recieved this foundation, i had sworn off foundations for good. i couldnt find the right color, texture, long wear, and most importantly for me, not break me out. and im one of those who have tried ALOT of foundations. from the cheapest to the high end. admittedly, i swapped for this so i didnt techincally pay the 90$ but i will once i run out. which will take forever because i have the glass frosted bottle.
the reason i swore off foundation before this is because i have old acne scars and noticable pores. they are very mild and only noticable in certain lighting but when i was wearing a full face of foundation (especially dewy moisturizing) it amplified my scars times a billion. it was horrifying.. so i gave up and decided to stick with concealers. until this came along.
now on to the actual review lol (sorry)
this changed my way of thinking and it is now a holy grail because the finish is TRULY skin like. not dewy. not matte. not semi matte. not satin. if i had to pick, it would be closest to dewy but thats only because its not drying in the least. it literally looks just like my skin.
it last all day on me but since my skin leads oily in the summer time, my natural oils start to break through and honestly i love it. it stays true to color. no oxidation and s101 is perfect for my fair skin. some of the reviews below said they noticed it turn a little pink on them. for me this was not the case at all. its very neutral on me.
it does not amplify my pores or small scars in any lighting. and trust me ive checked haha. it just looks extremly natural! it doesnt make me break out and i always wear a new foundation on one half of my face for a few days just to be sure :)
the texture isnt runny and its not creamy. i cant think of another foundation texture to compare it to but this blends seamlessy and effortlesly. i only apply this to flaws or discolorations on my face and blend it into my skin with sephora multi tasker brush
the coverage is a light to medium. i dont think its like a tinted moisturizer at all. if i need a little extra coverage, i can apply one more light layer and it does the trick! no cakiness ever.
all in all, even with the expensive price tag, i will always own this :) having nice looking skin is very important to me and this has given me a confidence in myself that no other makeup base has ever given me.

This is one of my favourite foundations of all time. For reference, I am an NC30 with strong olive (green) undertones and have combo/oily skin. I don't have acne or any major scarring. I need foundation to even out my skin tone and make it look smooth, polished and pretty. This foundation fits the bill very well.
Before we start, another variable I feel compelled to include in this review is my skin prep, as it will very likely affect the performance of this foundation. At the time I used this foundation, I always prepped my skin with Kiehl's Ultra Facial Moisturiser and Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Cream SPF50. The latter makes all of my foundations last 10+ hours, so keep that in mind.
SHADE: None of the shades match me perfectly. 104 has strong yellow undertones but is too dark for me. 103 is a better match depth-wise but is too pink.
PACKAGING: The bottle is very practical in design: the pump dispenser is very easy to use and you can easily control the amount of product dispensed. I have never dropped my bottle, so I have no idea how fragile it is. The plastic cap, however, is very flimsy.
TEXTURE/CONSISTENCY: This reminds me of Chantecaille Future Skin. It is a very thick gel foundation. Although viscous, it is very lightweight and easy to blend into the skin. It doesn't spread well due to its thickness, so I would recommend either dabbing a bit all over your face before you attempt to blend.
COVERAGE: I use one pump and I would say it offers light-medium coverage, which is perfect for my needs (described above). You can build it up to a solid medium coverage.
FINISH: In between dewy and satin. It is very luminous and skin-like but not greasy or oily. The finish is very refined, and the foundation is undetectable on the skin, even in natural lighting. I hate it when foundations look obvious on the skin and look like 'makeup'; this foundation is not like that at all. My skin still looks like skin but 10x better. It is great at optically blurring my pores and other textural imperfections. My skin looks so smooth with this but never fake or made up. A word of caution though: When my skin was flaking heavily due to starting Differin usage, it emphasized my flakes.
LONGEVITY: The selling point of this foundation in my opinion is that it is both luminous and long-lasting. When I think of long-lasting foundations, I tend to think of heavy, full-coverage, matte foundations like Estee Lauder Double Wear or Revlon Colorstay. I'm not a fan of those and it frustrates me because I have oily skin, so I need something that's tenacious. This foundation blows my mind. I've worn this clubbing in summer. Lots of dancing and sweating was involved but this foundation stayed put, even though I didn't use my usual sunscreen (since it was night time). Sweat still breaks though and I'll get shiny, but this foundation won't slide right off, or become patchy or cakey like many luminous foundations do. It doesn't last as long as MAC Pro Longwear though, which is the most tenacious foundation I have ever used. That one lasts 14+ hours on my oily skin, rain, hail or shine.
PRICE: At AU$110, this is the most expensive foundation I have ever purchased.
FINAL VERDICT: This is a fantastic foundation, but it's not worth the price in my opinion. The reason being that I have tried other foundations that look even better (especially Armani Luminous Silk and Designer Lift) and are cheaper. It isn't flake-friendly, so if you have such a skin issue, stay away from it. Furthermore, I have no shade match in this foundation. I would actually give it a 4.5 if I could.

This is my HG foundation.
Ellis Faas skin veil foundation i love you!
I am in Mac terms a NW20(winter)/NW25(summer) and have used the foundation pen in S102 and now i have the bottle in S103
At first when i got the pen i hated it, it was a struggle to get anything out, but then i watched the video on the website and i did everything wrong :-)
i used it on a part of my face and i got scared, it looked very pink and milky but when i buffed it futher on it seemed to addapt to my skincolor and it looked as if i had nothing on my face but made me look so amazing.
Just a awsom dewy medium coverage foundation that really looks like skin (but better)
i do have the bottle now because of the price and content (that is cheaper) It is pricey but it is so worth it.
I use the expert face brush by real techniques and/or the sigma f82 to apply it. And you only have to use one pomp and it covers your entire face.

Gear Question
I'm in the market for a bivy/sleeping bag...
Member since
I'm in the market for a bivy/sleeping bag cover. How does the MB Dry-Tec compare to the OR Micro Night?
Member since
The MontBell Dry-Tec is a sleeping bag cover & the OR MicroNight is a bivy shelter system which would give you much more protection from the elements.
Anthony Weston
Member since
The Montbell bivy is the lightest waterproof bivy on the market and it breathes as well as event and has very little condensation. I put it in the bathtub with 4 inches of water for several hours and my bag came out dry. I did seam seal it. In my opinion all bivys should be used with a tarp. I've used this bivy for several years and have nothing but praise for it. I did finally take it to my dry cleaner and I had them add a waterproof zipper.

Chiefs TE Kevin Boss (concussion) is out for the season.
Doctors told Boss that they wouldn't be able to clear him at any point this season. It's not a surprise for a player with at least four serious concussions on his resume. Boss' first season in Kansas City ends with a 3/65/1 line in three games. He's due $2.4 million in base salary in 2013.

Dr Dhanuson Dharmasena is one of the first people to be charged in the UK under a landmark case allowing for the prosecution of people involved in aiding and abetting the crime of female genital mutilation.
Female Genital Mutilation is not a good practice. I have long stood against it. However I have had issues with the UK's laws with regards to Female Genital Mutilation. Doctors were told to fight the practice with little or no training or worse? No idea of how to deal with children at risk.
The point is? We don't want to take children away from parents. We don't want young girls to get cut. We also don't want parents to not bring their kids to see the doctor for fear of being arrested.
But that being said? Prosecutions need to occur.
Dr Dhanoun Dharmasena, 31, of Ilford, Essex, will be prosecuted for an alleged offence while working at the Whittington Hospital in London. Hasan Mohamed, 40, of Holloway, north London, faces a charge of intentionally encouraging female genital mutilation.
Dhanoun is alleged to have repaired a case of FGM (it can be done, the clitoris is not fully removed and more can be exposed to restore some pleasure) that he himself performed earlier. While Mohamed is believed to have tried to encourage the procedure and facilitate it.
There are other cases but the Crown Prosecution Service has not taken further action. These include a case where two parents arranged for a FGM while abroad. In another? A suspect contacted a FGM hotline to request the procedure.
Whatever happens it is a landmark case since it is the first case that has come to light since the new laws were put in place. However this needs to be coupled with education of children and adults with regards to the law and why the law exists. The campaign to halt female genital mutilation should also include our countries because it does happen even in the developed world
However this is not so cut and shut as it seems. It is easy to paint Dhanoun Dharmasena as a complete villain. But the reality seems to be a lot more grey. The issue seems to be that Dharmasena's patient was injured during delivery due to the FGM done to her prior and that his efforts to correct the damage were seen as interventional and reported as FGM in itself.
In women who have suffered a FGM the pregnancy may be complicated by a narrow vaginal opening which may need widening to allow the baby out. If it is not done before labour it must be done during delivery. This leaves bleeding that needs to be repaired.
There is a world of difference between the practice of FGM an repairing an episiotomy. And Dr. Dharmasena's generous episiotomy was indicated in cases of FGM where the vagina was "stitched" close reducing the elasticity of the opening.
The real problem here then is two fold.
1. This isn't a case of prosecuting FGM where the real problem is the procedure being done both abroad and in the UK
2. This will have knock on effects in preventing doctors from speaking out
The major issue here is that doctors are not encourage to correct the damage caused by FGM during child birth as it is seen as tampering and FGM in itself. It detracts from the real issue and punishes doctors trying to make the best of a terrible event to allow the victim of FGM a normal delivery.
In this case the victims of a FGM would be left to bleed "naturally" after a childbirth. Medics would be penalised if they repair the damage in the wrong way. As the case details are released the opinion may change but from what we are seeing so far, the doctor is being penalised for repairing a vagina that was affected by FGM related damages during child birth.
Your prime objective as an Obs/Gyn is to reduce pain and bleeding,
"Your primary objective is to reduce the bleeding and pain and you are having to think about whether somebody is going to prosecute you for FGM. A lot of obstetricians and midwives right now will be feeling terrified about how to act. People will want to consult senior colleagues in FGM cases and women may be waiting and bleeding in the meantime."
Tbe decision to charge a hospital doctor for the repair of FGM is idiotic, harmful and punishes the wrong people. It harms doctors and it harms the victims of FGM. It is easy to say "sod the law" and do the right thing but you cannot expect doctors to put their practice in jeopardy and take enormous risks solely to please people who aren't taking the same risk.
Repairing a FGM should not be punished, doing one should. Treating this incident as a crime is daft. It's like charging the trauma doctor with assault for repairing a stab injury.
I will rewrite and repost my primer on FGM to include how a FGM case is managed but roughly speaking the smaller opening has to be widened or cut to allow the delivery. Part of the reason for high African maternal/foetal mortality is the haemorrhage caused by tears and poor closure. There will be blood and stitches can reduce the bleeding.
The issue seems to be that this procedure restores the "FGM state" because it repairs the damage done. If the normal state of a FGM individual is a narrowed vaginal opening then restoring that would not be FGM in itself. The damage is already done, this is just preventing more of it.
The Crown Prosecution Service says there is an interest in this case and that the evidence exists but as of now there are fears that the UK's anti-FGM law will prosecute those who try and help.
If there is more evidence to be released then by all means release it and set us straight, but right now there are a lot of fears among medics with regards to what this charge entails for us.

A few years ago I told a friend that the culture wars were over. You might think, given the recent controversies about the whiteness of Santa and Jesus, to say nothing of the racial divides that opened up after Trayvon Martin's killing, that I was terribly wrong. But I stand by the claim. The culture wars are over—all over, that is, but the shouting.
There is plenty of shouting, to be sure, on cable and social media. But the fundamental shift has already occurred. To paraphrase James Baldwin, America is white no longer, and it will never be white again.
I don't mean statistically: We have a few more years before the group called whites will be a minority of the U.S. population. Nor politically: Pretty much every power structure in America is disproportionately white and will remain so, long after the population figures tip. I mean simply that the cultural die is cast. We are now a country that defines Americanness in terms that are no longer reflexively, primarily white.
From the start, people calling themselves white have claimed the default setting for American public life. Now demographic change and its shadow are displacing that default. This is what drives so much of the white status anxiety today in politics and popular culture. It also suggests that the much-maligned Millennial generation will be our deliverance. They've grown up more comfortable with diversity and less inclined to privilege whiteness automatically than any generation in the country's history.
Some people find all this race talk an unhealthy obsession. They want simply to transcend it. But even if you think that's a worthy goal—there are times when it might be and times when it mightn't—we can't possibly transcend race until we transcend the idea of a white race.
That's why the color of Santa matters so much now. In her piece that sparked Megyn Kelly's viral moment on Fox News, Slate's Aisha Harris suggested replacing Santa with a penguin. That's an understandable plea from someone who thought the whiteness of Santa unbearable. My view, though, is that Santa ought to stay human; There's no need for people of color to fall back to a bird. Better to claim the jolly old man—and better still to assert that he is a human of all races.
I believe in Santa. I believe in a Santa who's whatever color you want him to be.
Call it SANTAx—in just the way that TED spawned the ecosystem of TEDx events. Those events follow the form and structure of the original TED conference but are conceived and curated locally, with local voices, as TEDxSeattle or TEDxBoston or TEDxAustin. TEDx didn't dilute the brand; it amplified it. That was its genius. SANTAx would do the same for our Yuletide symbol. There is a base concept of Santa—red, fur-lined costume with white fringe, chubby, old, and twinkle-eyed. Beyond that base, let Santa in Santa Fe be a happy Hispanic; let Santa in the heart of Los Angeles be ... well, actually, a photo of a kindly black Santa in Crenshaw has already flooded Facebook in recent days.

HP claims fraud prompted $5B overpayment for companyBy PETER SVENSSON
The Associated Press | November 21,2012AP Photo
The Hewlett-Packard Co. logo is seen outside the companys headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif. HP said Autonomy Corporation PLC, a British company it bought for $10 billion last year, lied about its finances, resulting in a massive write-down of the value of the business.NEW YORK Hewlett-Packard Co. said on Tuesday that its the victim of a $5-billion-plus fraud, claiming a British company it bought last year lied about its finances.
HP CEO Meg Whitman said executives at Autonomy Corporation PLC willfully boosted the companys figures through various accounting tricks, which convinced HP to pay $9.7 billion for the company in October 2011.
Autonomys former CEO said HPs allegations are false.
HP is now taking an $8.8 billion charge to align the accounting value of Autonomy with its real value. More than $5 billion of that charge is due to the false accounting, HP said.
The revelation is another blow for HP, which is struggling to reinvent itself as PC and printer sales shrink. The companys stock hit a 10-year low in morning trading.
Among other things, Autonomy makes search engines that help companies find vital information stored across computer networks. Acquiring it was part of an attempt by HP to strengthen its portfolio of high-value products and services for corporations and government agencies. The deal was approved by Whitmans predecessor, Leo Apotheker, but closed three weeks into Whitmans tenure as chief executive. Whitman was a member of HPs board of directors when Apotheker initiated the Autonomy purchase.
Among the tricks used at Autonomy, Whitman said: The company had been booking the sale of computers as software revenue claiming the cost of making the machines as a marketing expense. Revenue from long-term contracts was booked up front, instead of over time.
As a result, Autonomy appeared to be more profitable than it was, and seemed to be growing its core software business faster than was actually the case. The moves were apparently designed to groom the company for an acquisition, Whitman said.
Once HP bought the company, Autonomys reported results quickly declined. Autonomy CEO Mike Lynch continued to run the company as part of HP, but Whitman forced him out on May 23 because it was not living up to expectations.
Little did I know that there was more than met the eye, Whitman said.
With Lynch gone, a senior Autonomy executive volunteered information about the accounting shenanigans, prompting an internal investigation, she said.
The case has been referred to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the UKs Serious Fraud Office, she said. The company will also try to recoup some of the cash it paid for Autonomy through lawsuits.
In a statement to the Financial Times, Lynch said The former management team of Autonomy was shocked to see this statement today, and flatly rejects these allegations, which are false.
It took 10 years to build Autonomys industry-leading technology and it is sad to see how it has been mismanaged since its acquisition by HP, he added.
On a conference call with Whitman following the earnings report, analyst Ben Reitzes of Barclays Capital asked who will be held responsible internally for the disastrous acquisition.
Whitman answered that the two executives that should have been held responsible Apotheker and strategy chief Shane Robinson are gone. But the deal was also approved, essentially, by the current board.
Most of the board was here and voted for this deal, and we feel terribly about that, Whitman said. What I will say is that the board relied on audited financials. Audited by Deloitte not `Brand X accounting firm, but Deloitte. During our very extensive due diligence process, we hired KPMG to audit Deloitte. And neither of them saw what we now see after someone came forward to point us in the right direction.
Apotheker told The Associated Press on Tuesday that he was stunned and disappointed to learn of the allegations against Autonomy, and pointed out that they had gone undiscovered by HPs auditors, executives and directors.
Deloitte UK said it could not comment on the matter because of client confidentiality rules.
Whitman said she still views Autonomy as a growth engine for HP software, albeit a weaker one than initially thought.
HPs stock dipped $1.59, or 12 percent, to $11.72 in afternoon trading. Just after the markets open, the stock hit $11.35, its lowest level since 2002.
HPs net loss for the fiscal fourth quarter, which ended Oct. 31, amounted to $6.85 billion, or $3.49 per share. That compares with net income of $239 million, or 12 cents per share, in the same period last year.
It was the second mammoth loss in a row for HP. In the third fiscal quarter, it lost a record $8.86 billion, or $4.49 per share. That was due to a charge for another acquisition that of Electronic Data Systems, a technology consulting service that it bought for $13 billion in 2009. In that case, HP didnt blame improper accounting, just results that didnt live up to expectations.
Excluding the charges in the latest quarter, HP earned $1.16 per share in the latest quarter, just above the average analyst forecast of $1.14 per share, as polled by FactSet.
HPs revenue was $30.0 billion, down 7 percent from last year. That was below analyst expectations at $30.5 billion.
The Palo Alto, Calif., company stuck to its previously given earnings forecast for the fiscal year that just started, but it issued a forecast for this quarter that was well below analyst expectations. It expects earnings, excluding items, to be 68 cents to 71 cents per share, while analysts were looking for 85 cents, according to FactSet.MORE IN National / World BusinessMANCHESTER If a sense of humor is whats needed to get through tough economic times, then...

O'gara, Patrick T. M.D., F.A.H.A.
Editorial Board Chair, HEART INSIGHT
You know the old saying, "You can't keep a good man down?" That's certainly true of 76-year old heart rehab patient Jay Kennedy, who competed in five events at this year's World Heart Games – and medaled in four of them. At HEART INSIGHT's request, Kennedy kept a diary of his excellent adventure. It's a fun read.
Heart attack and stroke are a leading cause of death and disability in the U.S., but every cardiologist I know has lost too many patients to embarrassment. That is, people having chest pain too embarrassed to call EMS! Our article, "Chest Pain Means You're Having A Heart Attack — Except When It Doesn't" (page 7) helps you differentiate between various types of chest pain to help you figure out when you need to call 9-1-1 immediately. The article also rebuts all the reasons people commonly give to avoid making the call.
Providing help and healing to a loved one who is recovering from a heart attack, stroke, or other debilitating condition is both a privilege and a burden for caregivers. Depending on the type and duration of help a patient needs, there often isn't time or money enough to go around, especially when the caregiver is an only child — or is the only child within close proximity to the family member needing help. "The Caregiving Tug-Of-War" (page 16) offers advice on how to get extra hands on deck, or to coax siblings to lend a hand.
In this issue we debut a new section, "Life's Simple Seven" (page 12), which focuses on the interplay between four ideal behaviors (lose weight, get active, quit smoking and eat better) and three ideal health factors (blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and total cholesterol levels within the AHA 's recommended range — preferably without medication to keep them there). The "Life's Simple Seven" section gives kids and adults tips and techniques on making modest lifestyle and behavioral changes that can help lead to a lifetime of good health.
We also added online-only features that provide readers with additional information on our articles. Please visit www.HeartInsight.com to read "Reclaiming The Joy Of Sports," about the origin of the World Heart Games, and "Making Sense Out Of Government Assistance Programs," which gives caregivers and patients guidance on qualifying for, and utilizing the benefits provided by, Medicare and Medicaid.
We always look forward to your E-mail and letters commenting on our articles, or suggesting topics you'd like to see us cover. Please let us know what you think of the "Life's Simple Seven" feature, as well as the bonus articles on the magazine's Website. You can E-mail us at: email@example.com or write to HEART INSIGHT, 333 Seventh Avenue, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10001.

Dodgeball fight is on in Windham
Upset about the discontinuation of dodgeball and other such games in their gym classes, Matthew and Michael Senibaldi, twin sons of School Board member Dennis Senibaldi, have taken matters into their own hands.
The 12-year-old boys, whose father was the sole board member to object to the ban of all "human contact" games earlier this month, posted an online petition this week in hopes of convincing the board to let the games go on.
"Nerf ball games are fun interactive games that teaches kids the skills of teamwork, strategy and agility," the online petition reads. "Lots of kids have loved Nerf ball games for a long time and we feel it is unfair to eliminate these games based on a few complaints ... we the undersigned kids respectfully are asking the School Board to reconsider their vote."
On Wednesday, Matthew and Michael passed a survey around to their peers during their lunch period at Windham Middle School, gaining several dozen signatures before they said school staff intercepted their petition. The online petition may be viewed online at http://chn.ge/XhFKM4.
As of Friday at 6:30 p.m, the online petition had garnered 201 signatures.
The elder Senibaldi said he supported his sons' decision to petition online.
The four other School Board members didn't immediately respond to an inquiry from the Union Leader on Friday afternoon. Michael Senibaldi said he and his brother Matthew have been enjoying games of dodgeball since the second grade and they both were saddened to hear it had been banned.
"It's just a lot of fun and it's not really about human targeting at all, That's not the point of the game," Michael said. "It's just something we have fun doing with our friends."
After a stilted attempt to collect signatures at school, the boys decided that posting an online petition was probably the best option.
"This way anyone can sign and no one can take that away from us," Michael said.
Both boys said their goal is to get as many signatures as they can, which they'll forward to members of the School Board. On March 21, the school board voted 4:1 in favor of eliminating all "human target" games from the district's curriculum, with proponents of the ban stressing that such games pose safety concerns and can encourage instances of bullying. Senibaldi voiced his objections to the ban, stating that "there are other ways to address bullying."
But Windham teacher Rory O'Connor, spokesman for the district committee tasked with reviewing district physical education policies noted that standards dictated by the National Association for Sport and Physical Education suggested a ban was an appropriate move after some parents reported instances of their children being targeted at dodgeball games.

EXCO Resources' CEO Discusses Q1 2012 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
Douglas H. Miller
Disclaimer. So, go ahead, Doug.
J. Douglas Ramsey
All right, thanks, Doug. I'd like to remind everyone that you can go to www.excoresources.com and click on the presentations link in the Investor Relations section at the bottom of our homepage to access today's presentation slides.The statements that may be made on this conference call regarding future financial and operational plans, projections, structure, results, business strategy, market prices and derivative activities or other plans, forecasts and statements that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are based on a variety of assumptions that may change depending on future events which are difficult to predict. Actual results may differ materially from those forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place undue, if any, reliance on such statements. Please refer to Pages 24 and 25 of the slide presentation for the complete text regarding our forward-looking statements, as well as the cautionary information set forth in our most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, and other SEC filings, which are available on our website at www.excoresources.com. In addition, the slide presentation contains information, including reconciliations regarding certain non-GAAP financial numbers, which will be discussed on today's call. Doug? Douglas H. Miller Okay. Welcome, everybody, to our call. We have a slide show that is on our website, that we'll be going over today. With me today, I have 10 people, lawyers, all our financial guys and our operating guys. And we're going to be going over, in some detail, our quarter and we'll be sticking with you through -- as long as you want, as far as Q&A goes. Just to get started. We have been -- with gas prices going down -- I could sometimes feel like we were driving across Kansas going 90 miles an hour, a year ago, with gas prices high and working as hard as we can. And hereabout, beginning of the year, we ran into a school zone. And so, I think we've had to figure out how to go slower and we're doing it and I think we still have guys in our industry speeding. So some of them are starting to get tickets. With that -- what we've been doing is we have been ramping down and cutting our capital budget. We do believe that you run a company, an oil and gas company inside your cash flow. We've been doing that. We've cut our capital expenditures 3 times since our November capital meeting. We'll continue to do so as gas prices stay cheap.

TheStreet.com TV Recap: Apple's a Fashion Play
When examining the powerhouses in the computer field, be sure to differentiate between the fashion stocks and the business stocks, said Jim Cramer on a
Apple (AAPL), because it's constantly reinventing itself with new looks that appeal to youth, has set itself off as a fashion stock.
"It's truly captured the imagination of youth," he said. "The iPhone is a fashion statement; Hewlett Packard (HPQ) is a business statement. H-P has to be viewed as a corporate play, and Apple as a fashion play."
A company, he said, can't be both. He noted Apple's lack of huge penetration into the hundreds of millions of computers at use in the business world. "Apple has a very exciting product that happens to have tech."However, the company's still found a hugely profitable niche, and because it's found the elixir to constantly reinvent itself, it's proven that it can keep doing that and remain a hugely successful company.

It's always great to see a band showcase their all-around musicianship by completely switching up genres. Pg. 99, a hardcore/metal group, decided they wanted to make some heavy-hearted indie-folk and set out to do just that. Pygmy Lush throws around pendulum-esque guitar riffs over hammering beats, allowing vocals to soar easily overhead. Great music for early mornings and after rough days, Pygmy Lush is just the thing you need to soothe your sorrows. Check out "Yellow Hall" below.

As the temperature rises, so do the hemlines. And while the prospect of wearing short shorts and tank tops is welcome in the summertime humidity and heat, sometimes you want (or need!) to feel a bit more covered-up. The solution? Add a sheer, blouse-y top when wearing your favorite pair of denim shorts. Buy over-sized and tuck it in to tone down the volume. For a lot more coverage, it won't add that much bulk or cause you to break out into heat palpitations. Win-win.

When we first introduced Hudson Jeans' phosphorescent-striped LouLou jeans, we definitely pictured wearing the tuxedo striped cropped skinny jeans at nightclubs. But, we were pleasantly surprised to see all the different ways that fashion bloggers were able to incorporate these limited edition jeans into their every day wear à la street style (see below). Check out the different looks: from dressy to street casual. We even spotted a cleverly-styled version by one fella. What spin would you take on these trendy jeans?

Here's a great tip from Donna Ida to take with you on your next denim shopping endeavor. Jeans with whiskers (especially of the subtle, natural-looking variety) can add some depth and dimension to your jeans' crotch and hip area, and help you avoid looking wider and "blocky". If you're trying to look slimmer from the front, take this tip into consideration, and check out some great whiskered washes below.

Prepare to brave transitional weather by repurposing your denim shirts as denim jackets. For a longer, tunic-length denim shirt, just wear it like you would a jacket–slung open. Then throw your shirt over your shoulders for a casual look that's great for dressing down a fancier going-out look. Or purposefully pick a smaller denim shirt (thrift stores are great for these), and wear as a cropped jacket with your summer dresses.

Does the neon trend still feel too wild for your tastes? Tone down a neon dress (like Christopher Kane's Barbara Lace Dress) with a denim jacket (like Topshop's Tall Denim Western Jacket). We're taking inspiration from style blogger Jenny Ong, who paired her neon yellow frock with a bleached denim motorcycle jacket.
Check out our inspiration below!

When you take in your jeans to get hemmed (for instance, via our Denim Therapy expert hemming service!) be sure to bring a pair of shoes with you to wear when getting measured. Before your jeans go under the knife you'll want to make sure the shoes you measure with are the shoes you're planning to pair with the jeans (or at the least, a similar heel/lack of heel). This will take the guess work out of figuring out the measurement you'll be happiest with.
Remember, for all your hemming needs, whether it's a re-size or a repair, check out Denim Therapy's expert hemming service.

One of our favorite ways to wear white denim is to accencuate your pair of jeans with a pop of color. You can keep the palette simple with white jeans, a white top and break up the outfit with a standard brown belt. But what will take this summer-ready outfit from basic to fashion forward? A dash, pop or hint of any neon. Bold and bright neons are stampeding the fashion scene this season and what way to better have your accessories stand out? What's your favorite accent color?

Even though monochromatic looks are fun, don't shy away from pairing colored jeans with other strong colors! Take a hint from Bloomingdale's and do this: "Boldly layer rich swaths of color to reach saturation point in standout style." Bet you hadn't thought about color-blocking with your denim, huh? Here's one way you can do it–this combination of royal blue jeans and punchy orange top is striking, for sure.

Still trying to figure out how to wear all of the new, gorgeous colored denim pieces that are so popular right now? Try going monochromatic! This works with everything from bright, highlighter yellow neon jeans to your more basic royal blue skinnies. But please, let's keep it fresh and wear different shades of the same color. Sound good?
