Add a CommentA patron review from the Adult Summer Reading Game: "So interesting. Easy ride for an adult but a very different book. Cool concept. A little scary in a mysterious way."
I had to force myself to get through this book. The idea behind it is interesting, considering it was published in 2004. However, what could have been a great short story became a terrible novel with an underdeveloped storyline, plot, and characters.
pretty good, a nice read if you have nothing else to do,it's not a book that i suggest going out and buying but all in all a good time waster
Can't wait to get my hands on the second book!! Such a great story. Scary to think that the bar code is a possibility to replace every thing we use now!!!!
This is an really good book
And for all of you guys wondering if there is or in not another book, there is! In fact its in the library.
Its called 'The Bar Code Rebellion.'
I have not read it but i have it on hold and hope to read it soon. I hope its as good or better than the first book!
This was an okay book...nothing special but I liked the story. It was pretty predictable and the writing isn't stellar, but the story was somewhat original.
Add Age SuitabilitySummary
Add a SummaryThis book is about our world in the future where it becomes necessarily to get a bar code tattoo. A bar code tattoo is like a credit card and it has all your info. in it, the only creepy part about it is that you where it on your wrist. First it wasn't necessarily because there was still money, but now there isn't! Everyone 17 or over must have a bar code tattoo. The thing is that ppl think that s it is very exciting, it isn't! A lot of ppl think that it has killed ppl!
Kayla lives in a world where every 17 and over person must be tattooed. It isn't revealed why, but it will make your life better, they say. As time goes on, Kayla still does not believe in the tattoos. Then, her father sucides out of depression, ever since he gotten the tattoo, and leaves her mother scared. Soon, Kayla joins in on a rebellion group called Decode, to fight this ongoing problem. People are getting declined for jobs, and suffering deep depression. It isn't too long until Kayla's mother tries to burn the tattoo, and dies in the progress. Kayla is all alone in the world, and is on the run. News cast her as a prime suspect for her mother's death, and charges her for not having the tattoo, at the age 17. She meets a group in the high mountains, rebelling against the bar code as well, and stays there for a while, until the officers arrests the group. Kayla and her friends Mfumbe and August are the only ones now. And Kayla has a vision. A vision that the bar code rebels will stand against the government. A Bar Code Rebellion.

MassDOT is working with the Army Corps of Engineers on a new system now in operation to monitor traffic in real time during construction at the Sagamore Bridge.
Technology called iCones has been installed by the Army Corps. The iCones look like traffic cones but are equipped to monitor and translate traffic speed data into travel times. Those travel times will be displayed on MassDOT Variable Message Sign boards located in three locations on the Cape side of the bridge.
Two locations are SmartZone message boards, which include traffic cameras. Those cameras are linked to the Cape Cod Regional Transit Authority website, as shown, where any one can log on and see traffic conditions in real time.
Cameras are also in place as part of MassDOT's 511 traffic camera system on the other side of the bridge, allowing drivers approaching the Cape to get traffic data. The iCone deployment is the result of the partnership among the Army Corps of Engineers, MassDOT, Cape Cod Commission and a regional task force, all coming together to help travelers make informed choices during the necessary construction work at the Sagamore Bridge.

Kiefer reflects on something sinister in Mirrors
Published: 09 October 2008
This American version of a weird South Korean horror film has Kiefer Sutherland (looking decidedly toxic these days) as an NYPD detective whose drinking has led him to resign from the force and leave his wife and kids.
He gets a job as a nightwatchman at the burnt-out remains of a once- famous department store. To say things go bump in the night is an understatement.
There is something sinister in the myriad mirrors left behind and whatever kind of ghostly apparition appears before the sad-sack ex-detective is clearly out to get him.
Filmed almost entirely in Romania by Alexandre Aja — who did the remake of The Hills Have Eyes — the story is efficient but strangely uninvolving and not nearly as scary as the Korean version.
This sort of thing simply doesn't work as well in America, even when it's shot in vampire country.

The Dow is falling again, dropping more than 90 points as soft GDP number stoke fears of slowing economic growth. U.S. Treasuries are climbing again, with the yield on the 10-year note falling below 1.7%. And there is some crazy news out of Russia about interest rates.
As for other headlines, here's a smattering of fixed income headlines

Folks in New England are digging out from Blizzard Juno. Apple (AAPL) shares are surging to lead the S&P 500 index higher on the strength of last night's earnings report. The Dow industrials are up slightly after yesterday's dramatic losses, while U.S. Treasuries strengthened today as growing market turmoil in Greece boosted demand for haven assets.
Here's some headlines that should peak your interest.
Will the European Central Bank's quantitative easing program prompt the Federal Reserve to back off plans to raise interest rates in 2015?
The answer is no, at least according to some market observers.
"I do not think it will," says Nick Colas, chief market strategist at Convergex, a New York-based brokerage. "They are trying to march to the beat of a different drummer. For them it is about getting monetary policy back to normal."
MarketWatch commentator Rex Nutting wrote today that investors are beginning to bet that the Fed will lose its nerve and postpone the rate hikes the central bank has hinted would come sometime this summer. The argument in favor of such a move is that the global economy can't handle the capital flight that would result from higher rates here and U.S. exports would get killed by a stronger dollar.
With the ECB about to embark on an aggressive bond-buying program and other central banks recently taking various policy actions, the pressure is on the Fed to relent, or so some argue.
But Nutting argues differently: He writes:
But does a stronger dollar offset all the reasons for the Fed to raise rates? No. Not yet, anyway.
In a recent analysis of what they called the "sizable growth drag" (at least 0.5 points a year) from a stronger dollar, economists at Goldman Sachs argued that the reasons for dollar strength matter. If the dollar is strong because the economy is strong, there's little reason for the Fed to be overly concerned.
Goldman listed four main reasons: 1. the outlook for stronger U.S. growth; 2. anticipation of dovish monetary policy in Europe and elsewhere; 3. lower oil prices; and 4. the outlook for weaker global growth. "We think the Fed views these factors as relatively neutral for the U.S growth outlook," said economist Kris Dawsey.
That analysis matches what the Fed itself said about the dollar at its last meeting in December, when policy makers concluded that "the downside risks were seen as nearly balanced by risks to the upside."
Sean Powers, chief investment officer at Cain Brothers Asset Management, offered up this opinion:
I don't think the ECB decision will have an effect on the Fed. The US is further down the road of recovery and arguably in a better financial position than Europe. Perhaps the ECB move alleviates the pressure on the US to remain a strong economic island relative to the rest of the world. If that is the case the probability of the Fed raising rates sometime in 2015 goes up.
Well, the Federal Reserve *did* change the language of its latest policy statement, but it also *did* keep the hyper-scrutinized "considerable time" phrase after all, just using it in a different context than before. Got all that?
Here's the key excerpt from the new something-for-everyone statement:
Based on its current assessment, the Committee judges that it can be patient in beginning to normalize the stance of monetary policy. The Committee sees this guidance as consistent with its previous statement that it likely will be appropriate to maintain the 0 to 1/4 percent target range for the federal funds rate for a considerable time following the end of its asset purchase program in October, especially if projected inflation continues to run below the Committee's 2 percent longer-run goal, and provided that longer-term inflation expectations remain well anchored.
The word "patient" is the statement's important new addition, as Wall Street Journal Fed-watcher Jon Hilsenrath and others had anticipated.Contrast this with the previous statement's language:
The Committee anticipates, based on its current assessment, that it likely will be appropriate to maintain the 0 to 1/4 percent target range for the federal funds rate for a considerable time following the end of its asset purchase program this month, especially if projected inflation continues to run below the Committee's 2 percent longer-run goal, and provided that longer-term inflation expectations remain well anchored.
So the Fed sort of found a way to take out "considerable time" without taking out "considerable time" and spooking markets, and it's is clearly trying to ensure that the handoff from "considerable time" to "patient" is as direct (if clunky) as possible. The 2-year Treasury note is stronger immediately following the statement's release, yielding 0.552%, down from 0.617% right before the statement's release, but the 10-year note is a bit weaker, yielding 2.123%, up from 2.101%, per Tradeweb data. Stocks rose immediately after the statement's release, as did gold and emerging-market ETFs.
The Fed also acknowledged that inflation remains low, saying market-based "measures of inflation compensation have declined somewhat further," adding the word "further" this time.
This statement had three dissenters, up from one last time, with two hawkish dissenters joining the lone dovish dissenter from the previous statement. Dallas Fed President "believed that, while the Committee should be patient in beginning to normalize monetary policy, improvement in the U.S. economic performance since October has moved forward, further than the majority of the Committee envisions, the date when it will likely be appropriate to increase the federal funds rate." Philadelphia Fed President Charles Plosser "believed that the statement should not stress the importance of the passage of time as a key element of its forward guidance and, given the improvement in economic conditions, should not emphasize the consistency of the current forward guidance with previous statements." Minneapolis Fed President Narayana Kocherlakota maintained his dissent, saying "the Committee's decision, in the context of ongoing low inflation and falling market-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations, created undue downside risk to the credibility of the 2 percent inflation target."
Here's a direct comparison between the current statement and our last one, courtesy of our colleagues at the Wall Street Journal's Real Time Economics blog.
Fed Chair Janet Yellen will kick off her press conference shortly.
We're all awaiting the Federal Reserve's latest policy statement later today, and a lot of people are focused on just two words in the current statement: the "considerable time" the Fed sees between wrapping up its bond-buying program next month and its first likely interest-rate hike. For weeks jittery markets have wondered if the Fed is going to change that language at its policy meeting that ends today, possibly auguring an earlier rate hike.
All the "considerable time" talk is beside the point, argues Rick Rieder, BlackRock's chief investment officer for fundamental fixed-income, who says the more important language is what comes at the very end of the statement:
The Committee currently anticipates that, even after employment and inflation are near mandate-consistent levels, economic conditions may, for some time, warrant keeping the target federal funds rate below levels the Committee views as normal in the longer run.
"I don't think 'considerable time' are the most important two words," Rieder said this morning. "More important is the pace at which they move [rates higher] and where the ultimate destination is. We think the pace will be slower and will move toward a lower long-term destination."
Rieder wants the Fed to start the rate-hike process "sooner rather than later" to avoid further asset-price distortions. "Moving from 0% to 1% has no negative effects on employment," he says of the Fed's policy rate, while slightly higher short-term rates will help investors in need of income. An earlier hike will encourage companies to make more capital investments because they'll have a better idea of the Fed's plans.
Rieder says the policy divergence between the European Central Bank, which recently lowered rates, and the Fed offers a window for the Fed to make policy changes, because the ultra-low rates in Europe will blunt the impact of rising rates in the U.S. as more global investors move out of European bonds and into Treasuries. "I think it's a really big deal," he says of the divergent policy paths of the Fed and the ECB. "It's going to act as a governor on how high U.S. rates can move."
Investing-wise, BlackRock currently embraces the long end of the U.S. yield curve, such as long-dated municipal bonds and Treasuries, which Rieder calls "pretty stable" compared to shorter-dated bonds while the Fed rate-hike process unfolds. BlackRock also likes commercial mortgages, peripheral European debt, and emerging-market bonds. It says high-yield bonds no longer represent a great opportunistic investment, but offer buy-and-hold value for their coupon income with defaults not expected to rise for a couple of years.
Rieder offered another plug for unconstrained bond investing strategies, saying the Barclays Aggregate index, or the Agg, which is the longstanding benchmark for most traditional bond funds, is losing its appeal and its relevance.
"Virtually all of the bonds being added to the Agg are Treasuries and investment-grade corporates," he says. "If you were starting a portfolio today, that's not all you'd buy…. It's an index that was created years ago for a different environment."
Bonds didn't budge as Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen gave a lunchtime speech and answered questions at the Economic Club of New York today. Yellen generally underscored the Fed's data-dependence and its commitment to keeping rates low as long as needed to aid the economid recovery. Yellen said she sees excessively low inflation as more of a worry than rising prices, and said both inflation and the labor market were not where the Fed wanted them to be before it considers raising short-term rates, something markets expect to happen sometime toward the middle of next year.
Bonds showed barely any reaction while Yellen spoke, with both the 10-year and 30-year Treasuries down 3/32 in price to yield 2.641% and 3.497%, respectively, per Tradweb data.
The U.S. unemployment rate should drop below 6% by the end of 2014, St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard said Wednesday at a conference in Hong Kong.
Mr. Bullard, a member of the policy-setting FOMC, said the U.S. economy is improving and unemployment had faster than many expected.
The Wall Street Journal reports:
Mr. Bullard, speaking at a conference organized by Credit Suisse, CSGN.VX +1.06% said the FOMC from now on would use "more standard" and "qualitative" language rather than relying on quantitative thresholds to guide market expectations of future rate decisions. He also repeated remarks he made last week that Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen was only echoing market expectations when she said the "considerable" period policy makers expect between the end of bond-buying and the first rate hike was around six months.
Yellen's comment last week sparked a selloff in stocks and bonds amid concern that rate increases could come as early as spring 2015. Sine then, several Fed officials have made publiccomments clarifying the central banks positions. Yesterday, Philadelphia Fed President Charles Plosser told CNBC that policy makers were "puzzled" by the stock-market selloff last week when Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen said interest rates may rise sooner than expected. Plosser said short-term interest rates should hit 4% at the end of 2016, and he expects rates to rise above 3% by the end of next year.
The Treasury market got back to normal Thursday after yields experienced a post-Fed jump yesterday. Yields on the 1-year note, the 2-year note and the 10-year note are all completely unchanged on the day, while the 3-, 5- and 7-year notes fell just 1/32 each in price, per Tradeweb data. The 30-year bond gained 3/32 to yield 3.664%.
Markets continue to digest and interpret the Fed's message, which included hawkish-sounding economic projections coupled with a fairly neutral policy statement and a dove-themed press conference from new Fed Chair Janet Yellen. Steven Wieting, chief investment strategist at Citi Private Bank, heard echoes in yesterday's market reaction of what happened when Ben Bernanke first broached the topic of a tapering timetable last May:
Investors, for good reason, may recall the abrupt and enduring spike in U.S. interest rates and global market impact of Chairman Bernanke's comments in May…. Chairman Yellen elaborated that the Fed's view of policy rates staying near zero for a "considerable period" functionally meant "probably…around six months." Like the winding down of QE, suddenly, actual rate hikes became concrete rather than abstract in investor's minds… [T]he onset of the first interest rate increase is now priced in markets a bit earlier during mid 2015 than previously (still not quite as early as implied by Yellen). Moreover, despite the sharp rate backup yesterday, the median consensus projection within the Fed for the funds rate at late 2015 and 2016 (1.0% and 2.5% respectively) is still significantly higher than priced into short-term U.S. Treasury yields, with two-year notes yielding 0.43% and three year yields at 0.90%.
Here's Guy LeBas, chief fixed-income strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott:
[The Fed's] interest rate forecasts increased, but puzzlingly, they did so in the face of reduced economic expectations. Central tendency forecasts represent the most likely range of growth and inflation, according to the FOMC. For March, the high end of this range was cut in each of 2014, 2015, and 2016 by -0.2%, signaling that the likely "optimistic" scenario of GDP growth is lower than thought. Inflation expectations held essentially steady. This apparent dichotomy between weaker economic forecasts and higher interest rates is muddling the Fed's communication efforts and leaving Fedwatchers to hypothesize about rather than understand how the FOMC looks at the future. Regardless, the 2.8- 3.0% central tendency economic growth rates the committee is projecting look very optimistic in our eyes.
Janet Yellen's first press conference as Fed chair is turning into an interesting affair, coming right after the Fed's policy committee just put out a reasonably familiar-sounding policy statement but a surprisingly hawkish set of economic projections - including slightly higher estimates for the Fed's short-term policy rate by the end of 2015 and 2016 – that have markets all worried that a Fed rate hike might come sooner than previously expected.
Wall Street Journal veteran Fed reporter Jon Hilsenrath asked Yellen how she could reconcile the "small upward drift" of FOMC members' policy-rate expectations with the policy statement's assurances that rates will remain low for quite some time yet.
In her response, Yellen stressed that markets should focus on the Fed's policy statement, not the economic projections, in divining the Fed's intentions, even though that's pretty much the opposite of what markets have done today.
"To my mind there is only very limited upward drift," Yellen said, calling the committee's rate expectations "virtually identical" to what they were in December. "I think that one should not look to the 'dot plot' [of expected future rates] as the primary way the committee is speaking to the public. The FOMC statement is the device that the committee uses as a group to express its policy about rates."
But it's funny how that word "virtually" fundamentally alters the meaning of the word "identical" when they're paired together. If the projections had in fact been identical, markets would probably not be freaking out today. Put another way, "virtually identical" also means "different," and when markets are starved for specifics about when the Fed will change its course, they're understandably going to seize on any such changes in projections, however small, when they're coming straight from the Fed itself.
Yellen reiterated that there will be "a considerable period" after the Fed's bond-purchase program ends before any rate hike happens, saying that "at the present path, we would be looking at next fall" before any rate hike could occur. But at one point she also suggested a "considerable period" could mean six months, which even if interpreted as an off-the-cuff comment again suggests a shorter horizon than markets had expected.
Markets still aren't buying the dovish spin though, with Treasury yields hitting new intraday highs (10y 2.786%, 2Y 0.448%) and stocks falling anew.
Markets have entered Fed-waiting mode Wednesday, hunkering down until the central bank wraps up its two-day policy committee meeting and releases its latest statement around 2 p.m. EDT. Treasuries weakened a bit earlier this morning but have been holding pretty steady since, with the 10-year note currently down 3/32 in price to yield 2.690%, per Tradeweb data, and the 30-year bond down 4/32 to yield 3.633%.
Over the past couple of days this blog has focused on what markets expect from the Fed. The short version: they expect the Fed to keep winding down its bond-purchase program at the going $10 billion tapering rate, and to shift its focus to forward guidance on its short-term policy rate by updating its stated economic thresholds for when an interest-rate hike might take place. Markets particularly expect the Fed to scrap its 6.5% target unemployment rate, no longer deemed relevant with that rate now sitting at 6.7%, for more qualitative labor-market metrics, and maybe to give an updated view on inflation too. They also want to hear the Fed's latest economic forecasts for the year ahead.
All of this updating – assuming any of it actually happens today – would give markets a sharper understanding of what specific economic metrics the Fed is focusing on, and a clearer sense of how new incoming economic data might impact policy. There won't be any rate hike today or for many months ahead, but markets should move today if the Fed gives any hint that such a hike is either closer or further away than previously thought. Since this is the first policy meeting under the leadership of Janet Yellen, by reputation more dovish than her predecessor Ben Bernanke, this could be a chance for Yellen to establish an even more accommodative policy position for the Fed.

SEFFNER, Fla. (AP) — A backhoe chipped away Monday at the remains of a house where a sinkhole opened up and swallowed a man, but there was little certainty as to what would come next for the site of the freak geological incident.
Though thousands of sinkholes erupt in Florida each year, most are small, few affect homes, and even fewer cause deaths. The sinkhole in the Tampa suburb of Seffner, however, was different.
Crews still were working to remove enough of the home to see more clearly inside the hole and determine what steps would come after the property is razed. There has been no definitive word as to whether the hole will be filled or whether the property could be built on again. But some experts say the fact that the sinkhole claimed a life — that of Jeff Bush, 37 — and that his body is expected to remain below the surface make rebuilding less likely.
"It's kind of a bad omen," said Dave Arnold, a hydrogeologist who has surveyed sinkholes for the Southwest Florida Water Management District. "This is an even worse omen with someone buried under there."
Arnold and other experts expect that once the house if destroyed, crews will work to fill in the hole and the lot will likely remain empty. Depending on the circumstances, past Florida sinkholes have been handled in varied ways.
In Maitland, Fla., a sinkhole 325 feet across was discovered in the 1960s as Interstate 4 was built. The highway was diverted around the area, but in 2008 workers began a $9 million project to fill and stabilize the sinkhole in preparation for a planned expansion of the roadway. Engineers say a road can be put over it now without any problems.
In Winter Park, Fla., a sinkhole in 1981 swallowed several sports cars, parts of two businesses, the deep end of an Olympic-size swimming pool and a three-bedroom house. It stretched about 350 feet across and caused $2 million in damages. The area became a temporary tourist attraction, but most of it was ultimately deserted, filled with water and became a lake.
And in 2002, a sinkhole about 150 feet across and 60 feet deep swallowed oak trees, sidewalk and park benches near an apartment complex in western Orange County, Fla. Two buildings with more than 100 residents were evacuated, but the structures were ultimately saved. Metal sheet piling was placed around the hole to stop the soil from sliding, and it was filled.
Often, homeowners find clues to a pending problem by cracks in the foundation or a shifting floor. When that happens, and a sinkhole threat has been established, crews can pump a thick grout — a mixture of sand and cement — into the ground to fill the holes. It is a costly process, though it is typically paid by insurance companies, and can save a home from being destroyed.

In a series of richly detailed case studies from Britian, Australia and North America, Tony Bennett investigates how nineteenth- and twentieth-century museums, fairs and exhibitions have organized their collections, and their visitors.
Discussing the historical development of museums alongside that of the fair and the international exhibition, Bennett sheds new light upon the relationship between modern forms of official and popular culture.
Using Foucaltian perspectives The Birth of the Museum explores how the public museum should be understood not just as a place of instruction, but as a reformatory of manners in which a wide range of regulated social routines and performances take place.
This invigorating study enriches and challenges the understanding of the museum, and places it at the centre of modern relations between culture and government.� For students of museum, cultural and sociology studies, this will be an asset to their reading list.

Bond and Beyond surveys the scope and reach of Bond's popularity by examining not only the image constructed in the novels and films but also its reflection in a wide range of other media forms, from the press and fanzines to soft pornography. The book relates his career as a popular hero to the changing cultural, political and ideological concerns of three decades showing how Bond has functioned as a sounding-board for concerns about the decline of Britain, the politics of the Cold War and detente, and the growth of feminism. As well as treating the Bond phenomenon in its own right Tony Bennett and Janet Woollacott use it as a case study to explore key areas of current debate in cultural studies and literary theory. Bond and Beyond makes an important contribution to the textual and contextual analysis of popular culture.

The intellectual radicalism of the 1960s spawned a new set of questions about the role and nature of "the political" in social life, questions that have since revolutionized nearly every field of thought, from literary criticism through anthropology to the philosophy of science. Michel Foucault in particular made us aware that whatever our functionally defined "roles" in society, we are constantly negotiating questions of authority and the control of the definitions of reality. Such insights have led theorists to challenge concepts that have long formed the very underpinnings of their disciplines. By exploring some of the most debated of these concepts--"culture," "power," and "history"--this reader offers an enriching perspective on social theory in the contemporary moment.
Organized around these three concepts, Culture/ Power/History brings together both classic and new essays that address Foucault's "new economy of power relations" in a number of different, contestatory directions. Representing innovative work from various disciplines and sites of study, from taxidermy to Madonna, the book seeks to affirm the creative possibilities available in a time marked by growing uncertainty about established disciplinary forms of knowledge and by the increasing fluidity of the boundaries between them. The book is introduced by a major synthetic essay by the editors, which calls attention to the most significant issues enlivening theoretical discourse today. The editors seek not only to encourage scholars to reflect anew on the course of social theory, but also to orient newcomers to this area of inquiry.
The essays are contributed by Linda Alcoff ("Cultural Feminism versus Post-Structuralism"), Sally Alexander ("Women, Class, and Sexual Differences in the 1830s and 1840s"), Tony Bennett ("The Exhibitionary Complex"), Pierre Bourdieu ("Structures, Habitus, Power"), Nicholas B.

Traube ("Secrets of Success in Postmodern Society"), Raymond Williams (selections from Marxism and Literature), and Judith Williamson ("Family, Education, Photography").

Russian Formalism and Marxist criticism had a seismic impact on twentieth-cetury literary theory and the shockwaves are still felt today. First published in 1979, Tony Bennett's Formalism and Marxism created its own reverberations by offering a ground-breaking new interpretation of the Formalists' achievements and demanding a new way forward in Marxist criticism.
The author first introduces and reviews the work of the Russian Formalists, a group of theorists who made an extraordinarily vital contribution to literary criticism in the decade followig the October Revolution of 1917. Placing the work of key figures in context and addressing such issues as aesthetics, linguistics and the category of literature, literary form and function and literary evolution, Bennett argues that the Formalists' concerns provided the basis for a radically historical approach to the study of literature. Bennett then turns to the situation of Marxist criticism ad sketches the risks it has run in becoming overly entangled with the concerns of traditional aesthetics. He forcefully argues that through a serious and sympathetic reassessment of the Formalists and their historical approach, Marxist critics might find their way back on to the terrain of politics, where they and theri work belong.
Addressing such crucial questions as 'What is literature?' or 'How should it be studied and to what end?', Formalism and Marxism explores ideas which should be considered by any student or reader of literature and provides a particular challenge to those interested in Marxist criticism. Now with a new afterword, this classic text still offers the best available starting point for those new to the field, as well as representing a crucial intervention in twentieth-century literary theory.

AmericasJail terms over Dirty War adoption "Stolen child" of an Argentine dissident brought case against her adoptive parents. 05 Apr 2008 01:53 GMT Sampallo does not know what happened to her biological parents, pictured [AFP] Enrique Jose Berthier, a former army captain, was also sentenced to 10 years in prison for handing over the baby to the couple. Identity uncovered Al Jazeera's Lucia Newman, reporting from Buenos Aires, said that Sampallo was told from a very young age that Pinto and Rivas were her adoptive parents. "From then on she started investigating. About 10 years ago, she went to a genetic blood bank set up by the Argentine government to try to identify some of these children," she said. "When she discovered that she had been lied to all along, she proceeded to sue them." The court ordered that Sampallo's identity card be destroyed as it bears the false name of Eugenia Violeta Rivas. Many pregnant women who were arrested when Argentina's military government cracked down on left-wing activists and dissenters gave birth in detention and were never seen again. Around 500 "stolen babies" were given to families close to the ruling party. About 88 of them have also been able to trace their true identities with the help of the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo, a human rights group founded in 1977 to try to find babies stolen during the "Dirty War" and reunite them with their biological families. Sentences criticised Activists from the group said that the three defendants should have received the maximum sentence of 25 years. "We do not agree with the sentence," Rosa de Roisinblit, the vice president of Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo, said. "We were hoping for something more just for our grandchildren."In the United States and other countries, a stolen child is almost akin to murder, and here it's nothing," she said. Tomas Ojea Quintana, Sampallo's lawyer, said he would appeal for longer prisoner terms for the three defendants. Source: Al Jazeera and agencies

WASHINGTON (AP) — It's anybody's guess which Mitch Daniels will show up when it comes time to sign or veto an Indiana measure that cuts off $3 million a year in federal funding to Planned Parenthood in the state.
The Indiana governor is a fiscal hawk who may not want to put at risk another $4 million a year in federal family planning grants that probably would be cut off because of the bill. But he's also a possible presidential candidate who may need to prove to GOP primary voters that he really is an anti-abortion social conservative.
Daniels' dilemma comes as the state Legislature this week wraps up a session that otherwise handed him a slate of accomplishments ready-made for a presidential campaign. A fastidious policy wonk who put fiscal priorities ahead of social issues, he could find the discussion a distraction as he tests a presidential campaign honed solely on an economic message.
"Gov. Daniels has not determined what he'll do and has asked staff to research the bill," said his spokeswoman Jane Jankowski.
The bill would be a significant victory for anti-abortion activists if Daniels signs it.
The measure — it is the nation's first to cut off Planned Parenthood's federal funding — ends $3 million in tax dollars the state distributes for family planning and health programs. It also ban abortions after the 20th week of pregnancy unless there is a substantial threat to the woman's life or health and requires that women seeking an abortion be told that life begins at conception. It also requires that doctors performing abortions have admitting privileges in a nearby hospital.
But if it is enacted, the state would probably forfeit $4 million it receives in federal family planning funding, leaving an estimated 22,000 low-income residents without access to such services.
"I would hope he would sign it," former Sen. Rick Santorum said when asked about the bill after a foreign policy speech that previewed his own expected White House run.
"I can't imagine any other organization with its roots as poisonous as the roots of Planned Parenthood getting federal funding of any kind," the Pennsylvania Republican said.
Daniels was not expected to comment until the bill arrives on his desk for action. He'll have seven calendar days once he receives the bill to take action. He could allow it to become law without his signature once those seven days pass.
Signing the measure might help Daniels' chances at winning the GOP nomination. He opposes abortion rights but has advised his party to keep its focus on the economy. In urging a "truce" on social issues, he has drawn the ire of the social conservatives.
"Only Nixon could go to China. Only someone with a proven pro-life record can talk to the Republican base about the need to prioritize fiscal issues," said Fergus Cullen, a former New Hampshire GOP chairman. "It may not satisfy the 5 to 10 percent of the base for whom social issues are their main concern, but it helps him have a conversation with the vast the majority of the party, including most pro-lifers."
Yet if Daniels signs the bill, it could hurt him among independent voters in a head-to-head contest with President Barack Obama.
"The reality is: Everyone over the age of 12 in America has a position on abortion. The worst thing that any political person can do is to think they're going to be the one who will finesse this and please everybody," said Republican strategist Rich Galen, who describes himself as a Daniels fan.
"What he will do is to decide what's best for Indiana," Galen said. "If he decides what's best for Indiana is to take the net hit, that's what he'll do. I think at some point, America may be looking for what's best for the majority of the people they represent rather than what's best for their next fundraiser."
That would be a strong selling point for voters weighing their decisions.

TORONTO - A judge has acquitted a Toronto teacher of sexually assaulting a former student when he was 15.
Ontario Superior Court Justice John McMahon delivered his verdict Friday.
Gowans, 43, a former elementary school teacher with the Toronto public board, pleaded not guilty to sexual interference and sexual assault of her former student in late 2009 and January 2010.
The maximum penalty for each offence is 10 years.
The teenager, now a tall 18-year-old college student who cannot be named, said he and Gowans grew close when she taught him Grade 8 French.
After he left for high school, she hired him as a babysitter for her two children and he returned to the elementary school to help her with after-class athletic activities.
The teenager claimed she flirted with him, wore skimpy outfits when they jogged and once showed him her breasts through a wet T-shirt in payment of a bet.
Starting November 2009, they had at least five intimate encounters in her home while he was babysitting her son and daughter, he said. Typically she would straddle him and expose her breasts and they would kiss, he testified last week.
Twice he touched her private parts with her permission, but she soon stopped him because she said it felt wrong, he said.
Gowans took the stand to deny it all. The only sexual encounter happened when he grabbed her crotch while trying to kiss her on Jan. 5, 2010, she said.
The shocked teacher immediately barred from her house, she said.
But the youth told his sister his version of events eight days later, leading his mother to contact police on Jan. 18.
Gowans said police came to arrest her that day in front of her two children, and her life was completely destroyed.
The allegations ended her marriage of 17 years and led to her suspension from the Toronto District School Board, she testified.
She later resigned.
The Crown pointed to the more than 2,000 text messages from November 2009 to Jan. 10, 2010. She said they were innocent, dealing mainly with babysitting and scheduling issues.
But the boy said the text messages were often sexual. None of the messages have been retained.
His mother and sister testified they saw a text message from Gowans to him at 8:26 a.m. Christmas morning 2009, saying "Christmas came early, babe" accompanied by a winking face. Both thought the message disturbingly sexual.
Gowans said she didn't recall sending it but added if she did it would have been a harmless joke. She called everyone babe, she said.

Recent The Bungalows At Seagrove reviews
"This was our third stay in the Bungalows. We love the area and, even though the weather is iffy during March (our Spring Break), we continue to be drawn to the area for its beautiful beaches, quaint town, and overall affordability. This time, we could not use the beach too many days because the wind was too high. Luckily, the pool at the Bungalows is shielded by the Bungalows themselves, so we still had a place to soak up some rays. This particular unit has some positives: 1) Easy-going yet responsive owner. No cleaning fees, flexible cancelation policy, flexible with me on when I paid the balance owed her (after pay day instead of when payment was technically due) 2) Pull-out sofa (my kids decided they did not want to sleep in the same room together this year, so the pull out was handy) 3) Convenient location within the complex. 4) Reliable wi-fi 5) Art work completed by the owner herself - nice touch 6) A balcony I actually used (because it looks on the pool and not another unit) 7) A grill 8) All the conveniences of the area: excellent proximity to the beach, convenient store, bike path, Seaside (one mile by bike), Goatfeathers seafood market just down the block (buy some steamed and seasoned shrimp - excellent!!), etc... etc... Really, the Bungalow's location has too many positives to list. That said, the interior of this unit could use a paint job (perhaps in something other than flat paint so scuffs could be washed off), the bedding was a little inadequate, the dryer took 2 cycles to dry every load (perhaps the vent to the outside needs to be cleaned??), and my husband and son were not in love with the quality of the tv for March Madness (I could have cared less about this). The hot tub was also on the fritz the week we were there, but that is outside the owner's control. Service was called, so I am sure it will be fixed soon (it has been hot on our previous visits). Like I said, I have stayed in this complex 3 times. Each unit has its pluses and its drawbacks. Overall, the affordability, convenience, and pleasurable owner outweigh the need for thicker comforters and a coat of paint, but if the owner would address these things, she would have it all."
"This rental right off 30-A was very convenient for the popular Seagrove Beach area. The bungalow was so cute, comfortable, and well-equipped. We felt right at home. We had not been to the area before. The properties are a bit crowded for our preference which is the only thing that prevents me from giving the property a five-star rating. Kudos to Dustin for keeping this unit so well-prepared for guests."

Market Report: Good news and bad news for industrial sector
- Wendy Culverwell
- Staff Reporter- Portland Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
An improved jobs picture coupled with soaring interest in home ownership add up to new demand for Portland's 173.8 million-square-foot industrial market, according to Colliers International's second quarter report on the state of the market.
On a positive note, Portland's 7.1 percent unemployment rate is 20 basis points lower than the national average. New jobs, including 900 added in the Portland construction and manufacturing sector alone, is driving activity and compelling operators to look for room. The industrial vacancy rate remained unchanged at 7 percent while asking rates rose 8.7 percent to 46.2 cents per square foot on a triple net lease.
Colliers anticipated, correctly, that rising rents and slowly falling vacancy rates would lead to a restart in speculative industrial development — projects constructed without first securing a tenant.
Shortly after the Colliers report came out, Capstone Partners LLC and PCCP LLC confirmed plans to develop Portland's first major speculative industrial project in five years, a two-building, 500,000-square-foot complex called PDX Logistics Center at Portland International Airport. It will later expand to three buildings and more than 800,000 square feet.
On a dimmer note, Portland broke its 11-quarter streak of posting positive absorption in the second quarter, posting a 522,075-square-foot loss. The drop in activity is likely an outlier, the result of timing rather than a real fall off in leasing activity. The deficit will likely be erased in the third quarter, Colliers said, noting that DHL renewed its 109,000-square-foot lease on Airport Way but didn't sign the deal until July 1, in the third quarter.
