Female oncology patients with metastatic disease can have the totality of their diagnostic, surgical, and follow-up therapies at Winthrop, eliminating the need to travel outside the community.
Services and procedures at Winthrop include colposcopy (examination of the vagina and cervix with an endoscope), biopsies, sonograms, CT Scans, MRI testing, radiation oncology, and chemotherapy. Advanced laparoscopic and, if necessary, radical surgery, including bowel and bladder procedures, are also provided by Winthrop's team of experts, along with coordinated multi-specialty therapy for the aggressive treatment of gynecologic malignancies.
"A woman most needs her support system when she is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness," says Dr. Chalas. "One of the greatest values of Winthrop's development of the Gynecologic Oncology specialty is the provision of expert diagnostics and superior care right in the patients' own communities. Travel can be avoided at a time when a woman is most vulnerable, most in need of her own familiar environment, and in need of the proximity of loved ones." Teamed with gynecologic oncologists Michael Pearl, MD and Fidel Valea, MD, Dr. Chalas and her associates join the Winthrop women's services team to provide seven day a week coverage, diagnosing and treating even the most aggressive and metastatic forms of gynecologic cancer.

Louisiana Bicentennial Stamp
©U.S. Postal Services 2011
CC Lockwood's iconic image, "Flat Lake Sunset," has been chosen by the USPS to be the official bicentennial stamp. The actual stamp will be released in a ceremony on Louisiana's 200th birthday, April 30, 2012 and stamps will be for sale in all post offices.
On December 29, 2011 the stamp was unveiled at a ceremony at the Kent Plantation House, in Alexandria at the first bicentennial kick off event. Louisiana will be 200 years old. On December 30, 2011 the USPS announced the stamp on their Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/USPSStamps and in their on-line philatelic magazine, Beyond the Perf, at http://www.beyondtheperf.com/2012-preview/
Flat Lake Sunset is one of CC Lockwood's favorite images. In his early years in the Atchafalaya swamp, the peaceful sunsets were one of the things that kept him so enthralled with this massive river basin swamp. Wildlife and the perfect sunset were what CC looked for in those early years exploring the Atchafalaya.
It took three years to capture that sunset quest. He knew Flat Lake would be a perfect place It was in the fall of 1976, when a cold front had just passed through that he found the right light. Flat Lake was vegetation free, after the high water years of 1973-1975 and at a perfect water level to show off the knees. The trees were well hung with spanish moss. It all came together for this image and especially so when his Nikon clicked just as a bass jumped on the left side of the images.
Although he has taken hundreds more sunsets around this lake, none can meet that one shot, a Henri Cartier-Bresson "decisive moment"
A limited edition framed set of stamp and photograph will be offered. A portion of the sales will be donated to the Louisiana Bicentennial commission.

Discarded human spermatozoa, eggs and embryos for personnel training and practice in assisted reproduction. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 18088514 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
An ethical issue that has been largely overlooked is the use of discarded human gametes and embryos for personnel training in clinical assisted reproduction technology, e.g. intracytoplasmic sperm injection and preimplantation genetic diagnosis. Unlike experimental research for generating peer-reviewed journal publications and intellectual property, there is no similar paper trail or smoking gun if human gametes and embryos are utilized solely for personnel training without the patient's knowledge and consent. For many assisted reproduction laboratories in private practice that are not affiliated with research or academic institutions, there are often difficulties in procuring animal material for personnel training. In contrast, discarded human gametes and embryos are readily available and can be convenient for training inexperienced personnel in assisted reproduction techniques. Very often, only verbal consent is obtained from patients, without written documentation, and this situation can potentially lead to abuse. For example, fertility clinics and laboratories may conduct training courses and workshops for generating additional income and revenue; and there is a possibility of discarded human material being utilized for such profit-making ventures without patients' prior knowledge. Hence, it is the moral duty and obligation of international professional bodies to advocate and draft clearly defined regulatory guidelines and legislative framework for this purpose. |

Anomalous features of the proximity effect in triplet superconductors
Tanaka, Y. and Asano, Y. and Golubov, A.A. and Kashiwaya, S. (2005) Anomalous features of the proximity effect in triplet superconductors. Physical Review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, 72 (14). p. 140503. ISSN 1098-0121
92kB |
Abstract: | Anomalous features of the proximity effect specific to diffusive normal metal (DN) / triplet superconductor junctions are studied within the quasiclassical Green¿s function formalism. The pair amplitude fN as a function of energy ¿ in DN, satisfies an anomalous relation, fN(¿)=¿fN*(¿¿) , contrary to that in singlet superconductor junctions case where fN(¿)=fN*(¿¿) . Such an unusual ¿ dependence is responsible for a zero energy peak in the local density of states and is a source of an anomalous penetration of the applied magnetic field into DN. Our results are relevant to Sr2RuO4 , which is considered to have a px+ipy -wave symmetry. |

The Latin American markets are broadly higher, albeit in some cases off day highs, carried along on a global rally that followed the U.S. Federal Reserve yesterday beginning a new round of quantative easing. Natural resource-related stocks, in particular, are higher on dollar weakness increasing commodity prices as well as expectations for increased demand for raw goods as economic conditions improve.
In economic news, central bankers in Chile late Thursday held the country's key interest rate at 5%, the eight straight time policy makers at Banco Central de Chile have left rates unchanged.
In a statement, the central bank said there is still "uncertainty" over the performance of European economies, "and a resurgence of tensions in coming months cannot be ruled out." Year-over-year consumer and core inflation levels remain under 3%, the body observed, adding, "Inflation expectations over the policy horizon remain around the target."
Also, Latin American steel production was down 1% from year-ago levels to 5.8 million metric tons during August, the Latin American Steel Association, or Alacero, said last night.
Brazilian output was up 4% from August 2011 at 3.1 million tons last month with Mexico producing 1.6 million tons. Argentina saw a 26% year-over-year decline, the trade group reported without specifying a production amount.
Here's where the regional markets stand this afternoon:
- Ibovespa now up 250 points (+0.4%) to 62,204. Was Up 550 points.
- IPC (Mexico City) now up 28 points (0.07%) to 40,683. Was up 168.23.
- Santiago Index IPSA up 33.23 (+0.8%) at 4,218.00.
- Merval Buenos Aires now up 39 points (1.55%) at 2,547.57. Was up 41.17.
In ADR news, Grupo Televisa ( TV ) is off more than 1% today following a downgrade to Sector Perform from Outperform at Scotia Capita. The move follows ADRs of the Mexican broadcaster yesterday establishing a new 52-week intra-day high of $24.71 per ADR, easing slightly at the close.

The bottom has got to be the hottest bottom out there today. Older, masculine, muscled and obviously loves to get fucked.

Baresi is one hugely hot bottom. Few guys look like they're loving it as much as Alex.
What top doesn't get off on his bottom acting like his cock is the best thing he's had up his ass, ever?
I know that kind of reaction makes me dive deeper and harder. My cumshot is in there somewhere, I just gotta keep ramming until I find it.

Hello all, I don't know how to solve this : I have set up a master and a slave DNS. Two servers seem OK ... Configuration data are perfectly copied to slave, everything is fine . When I stop the master DNS deamon, the slave is able to respond to queries. But after some days the slave doesn't respond to queries anymore. Is this behaviour usual ? Many thanks,
This is a normal function of secondary DNS servers. The time until it stops answering queries is set by the "expire" parameter in the SOA RR. This page might help explain it a little more for you. http://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch8/soa.html

With the way sailboat sales are going I would think I have plenty of company
Yep. With our kids now grown and independent, we suddenly have a bit more money in our pockets. We could definitely afford upgrading to a J70 or J88, but I just can't justify it based on how we use the boat. The 24 does everything we want it to, with the added advantage of being able to buy one regatta sails for half off retail whenever we need new ones. The money that would have gone for the newest toy is instead going into retirement, so we can better enjoy the toys we already have.

Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank Delivers Lasell College 2012 Commencement Address
March 5, 2012 Longtime Massachusetts Congressman and advocate for equality, Barney Frank (D) delivered the commencement address for Lasell College on Sunday, May 13, 2012.
First elected to Congress in 1980, Frank has been one of the most consistent proponents and advocates of issues of equality and social justice. During his career he has sponsored or co-sponsored groundbreaking legislation including the "Veterans, Women, Families with Children, and Persons With Disabilities Housing Fairness Act of 2011," the 2007 "Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act," and the "Freedom of Choice Act" of 1993. Frank recently announced he would not run for re-election after 16 terms in Washington. "Congressman Barney Frank has been a long-time voice for the voiceless and has consistently brought issues of equality to the fore. This makes him ideally suited to speak at an institution like Lasell with those same values," said President Alexander. More recently, Frank is known for his work related to the country's financial crisis. From 2007 through 2010, Frank served as Chairman of the Financial Services Committee, which recently passed The Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in the House, which the Wall Street Journal called "the most sweeping overhaul of the nation's financial regulatory system since the Great Depression." Frank is currently the ranking member of the Financial Services Committee. Although he is widely-recognized for his work on national issues, Frank has also fought to help New Bedford fishermen, to bring commuter rail to the Southcoast, and to provide affordable rental housing. He began his career in the Massachusetts State House, where he served for eight years before winning a seat in the U.S. Congress in 1980.
Frank is a 1962 graduate of Harvard University, and a graduate of Harvard Law School in 1977. He currently resides in Newton.

Description This application is a continuation-in-part of application Ser. No. 08/231,373, filed Apr. 21, 1994, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,530,961. This invention relates to computer networks, and more particularly, to an improved user interface preferably for use in connection-with a personal computer (e.g.; local terminal) or the like while connected to a remote computer. Remote terminals have been in widespread use for many years. Recently, with the move towards distributed computing, it has been more and more common to utilize a remote computer from a local terminal by accessing the remote computer over a data network. The terminal, in many cases, is actually a personal computer which is programmed in such a manner as to communicate with the remote computer. Many times, the PC is programmed to emulate a terminal so that the remote computer can not distinguish it from a simple "dumb" terminal. One issue to be addressed by a designer of such systems is that the users of such a terminal often desire to customize the user interface in a manner which is different from the user interface provided by the remote computer. Different users may wish to see different user interfaces, and the user interfaces desired by a particular user may also change based upon the particular application program running on the remote computer. The user interface, as defined herein, may include one or more display and input/output features. For example, the order in which fields of a database are displayed, the order in which they are accessed for data input, the definition and function of "PF" keys, the names given to each field, or other parameters utilized by the terminal user are all attributes which different users desire to configure differently. Prior art systems for resolving some of the above issues exist, but contain numerous drawbacks. For example, one such system is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,179,700, issued to Aihara. In the Aihara arrangement, each time the remote computer downloads a screen full of information to be displayed on the user terminal, it includes a screen ("ID") identification. The screen ID is a few bits of information which identifies the type of screen being downloaded. The screen ID is read by the local terminal and a table look up is performed based upon the screen ID, in order to determine the particular user interface which should be displayed to the user. The arrangement has several drawbacks. First, if the application at the remote computer is modified, but the screen ID is not changed, the local terminal will misinterpret the screen information and display incorrect and/or meaningless data. Additionally, the particular user interface parameters which define the manner in which information is displayed are globally defined. Specifically, as explained at column 4 of Aihara, the screen ID dictates uniquely the display on the local terminal. Thus, if two users desire a different display for the same screen ID, the local terminal will have to be reprogrammed each time one of the two users accesses the remote computer from the local terminal. In view of the above, there exists a need for a more flexible and configurable local user terminal. The above and other problems of the prior art are overcome in accordance with present invention which relates to a configurable local terminal. In accordance with the invention, numerous features, such as function keys, tabbing orders, field/screen layouts etc., are (i) received from a remote computer, and (ii) translated by the local terminal to allow for specific user interface parameters. The particular user interface parameters may be a function of the particular screen downloaded, and the particular user logging onto the remote computer, as well as of the particular terminal address utilized to log on. There is provided a software interface to allow each user to customize the particular user interface, for each particular screen. The software interface may be menu driven for added user friendliness. The invention allows each user to customize each user interface parameter based upon his own personal preference and the particular terminal used, without affecting the user interface parameters to the other users. FIG. 1 is a depiction of a small portion of an exemplary computer network; FIG. 2 shows a flow chart of the steps to be implemented by a local terminal in order to practice an exemplary embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 3 and 4 show an exemplary screen layout. FIG. 1 shows a local area network 101 with a plurality of computers 102 through 105 connected thereto. The network 101 may be, for example, an Ethernet, or any other suitable local or wide area network. Computer 102 is designated as a remote host which runs applications software that is accessible from any of local terminals 103 to 105, which may be implemented as personal computers programmed to emulate terminals. Computers 102-105 may exchange data in any conventional fashion. The communications protocols and standards for use with such networks are quite easily implemented and well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. FIG. 2 shows a flow chart of the appropriate steps to be implemented by a local terminal in order to practice the inventive technique. The software to implement the flow chart of FIG. 2 should preferably be executed by one of personal computers 103 to 105. Upon a screen of information being downloaded to a personal computer 103, the personal computer analyzes the screen with respect to the location of particular fields, and other attributes thereof, in order to recognize the particular screen downloaded. A technique for performing such analyses is described fully in copending application Ser. No. 08/231,373, which is commonly assigned with the present application and which is incorporated herein by reference. At step 203, a table look up is performed which determines the appropriate user interface parameters for a particular screen, which are stored on the computer's hard disk. If display parameters for this particular screen have been previously stored, then a screen mapping will exist, and decision block 204 will transfer control to block 205 where the previously stored user interface parameters will be invoked before control is returned to start 201 to await the arrival of the next screen of information. If, on the other hand, no previously stored user interface parameters exist for the particular screen recognized by the analysis of step 203, then control is transferred to block 206, where the screen is displayed utilizing default parameters which arrive with the screen of information. The particular display of the screen, based upon the incoming screen information, may be set up in advance by a user in accordance with techniques known in the art. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,179,700 to Aihara discloses a technique for displaying screens of information in a different form from that received by a personal computer. FIG. 3 shows an example screen for a particular type of data record to be entered. The exemplary screen of FIG. 3 is entitled "Transaction Record" and includes 5 fields of data as shown. The drawing of FIG. 3 is intended to represent the actual display of a screen after it is recognized by the local terminal emulator and displayed on the PC, as previously described therein. While numerous features concerning the layout of the display of FIG. 3 are described in copending application Ser. No. 08/231,373, there are three additional features which are important to a local user. First, we note that fields 301 and 302 are indicated as "first name" and "last name." These fields may actually arrive as one field, called "name," when downloaded from the remote computer. In accordance with the techniques previously described herein, the single field, after the screen is recognized by the local terminal emulator, is dissected into two fields which provide more convenient display for the end user. The user may program which field should be broken into simpler fields utilizing any conventional technique for data input, such as a menu. For example, the user could identify the particular field being downloaded by indicating its position and length in the screen, and then could indicate the starting position for each of the new fields on the resulting display. For example, if the "name" field is a 100 byte field where the first 50 bytes represent the first name, and the last 50 bytes represent the last name, the user could specify the location of the field "name" and then specify that the first 50 bytes are to be a first field, displayed locally, and the second 50 bytes are to be a second field. The terminal emulator can prompt the local user, during setup, for particular field names for the new fields into which the field "name" is dissected. Thus, data can be input and/or displayed in "subparts" which may be more meaningful and convenient to the remote user. Location and other characteristics of the display of the "subparts" can then be defined. In another feature of the present invention, the user can define the tabbing order between fields. Specifically, by depressing a particular function key, a numeral will appear after each field. An example of this with regard to the display of FIG. 3 is shown in FIG. 4. Thus, the numerals 1 through 6, as shown in FIG. 4, are displayed, when the arrangement is in setup mode. The user can then change the numbers to indicate the order in which data is to be entered. For example, the user could interchange the numbers 3 and 5 so that the account number is entered third rather than the phone number. After completing setup mode, the changes are saved and are utilized by the system to dictate the order in which data is inserted later. Specifically, when the system is in its normal data input mode, and data is to be entered into the record displayed in FIG. 3, the cursor will proceed from one field to the next in the order dictated by the arrangement shown in FIG. 4. The order shown in FIG. 4 can be different for different users and different transaction records. Thus, if a particular operator desires to enter data into a particular transaction in a first order, and a different operator desires to enter data into the fields of the same transaction in a different order, no reprogramming is required. Rather, when the user logs on, the local terminal Identifies the user and uses the order specified by that particular user for a particular transaction record, after it is recognized during downloading from the remote computer in accordance with the techniques previously described. Features other than tabbing order can also vary based upon particular screens recognized and particular users utilizing such screens. For example, the functions performed by particular "PF" keys, specialized function keys present on most PCs, can vary based upon these factors. Other variations are possible as well. The above describes the preferred embodiment of the present invention but various modifications and/or additions are intended to be covered by the following claims. Patent Citations

This is a free project, and as such donations greatly assist with paying the costs of server boxes, website fees and so forth.
I am sure everyone has seen the thermometer in the sidebar.
I have twice earlier this year missed payments to project which resulted in downtime, I have received just 1 donation in little over 4 months, just 1 …. , and frankly, this being a community project with the number of downloads it has, it is shocking.
I am hard at work with rebooting Makulu with a new website, new look, new desktop environments, reviving old environments, as I type this I have already been busy for a straight 9 hours working on the next release and i will put in a good 3 or 4 more today.
I have worked out the budget for Makulu to run for a year and for me to spend the time I do on the project. And the total is $10 000 a year is what this project needs to just survive. I have put the indicator into the sidebar so users can see the progress and what is needed to reach that goal.
I would love to work full time on Makulu, nothing would please me more, I am fortunate enough to have come from Game Development background to Linux Development, I have the skills ( both coding and graphical ) and the imagination to do great things on this project, However, funding on a Linux project always seems to be the most difficult part. Therefore I will keep an eye on that bar, and every-time it increases by 9% for the month I will spend a whole month on nothing but development of the project, if it falls short I will have to go out and work day job to make ends meet and make sure servers and website is paid on time, and yes this will Affect the next release and every release after that. I love doing what i do, but im also not a slave
If there is any schools, varsities or companies out there that can or want to sponsor towards the project, please get in touch with me at : email@example.com

raw beigli (a Hungarian delight)
Beigli is a traditional christmas treat in Hungary. Here is a delicious raw version.
1 fruit leather
1½ cup walnut, almond or poppyseed
½ cup dates
2 tablespoon cocoa or carob
sprinkle raisins, dried fruit
½ cup water
Make fruit leather: I use apple or plums, but can make it from any fruit. Process fruit in food processor or juicer. Spread it onto the dryer sheets and dehydrate. After about 8 hours, turn it over and dry for another few hours, until soft, leathery, not too dry. so simple and delicious by itself also.
filling: The given quantities for the ingredients are approximate, play with them yourself. Any kind of thick creamy sweet paste will do. Blend ingredients in food processor. Play with quantities, spices and ingredients. in traditional hungarian filling there is walnut and poppy seed.
Make a paste. Spread it onto fruit leather, play with thickness. Sprinkle dried fruit on it, then roll it up (a bit like sushi). You can let it sit for a little while but it is great to eat right then. Great snack, desert. Yummy. Enjoy!
4 reponses to "raw beigli (a Hungarian delight)"
1. So far so good. We used a
So far so good.
We used a banana crepe (bananas, flax, vanilla). Filled some of it with the cocao mix, some of it with no cocao, and some with nuts, apples and raisins.
We are hungarian too.
I bet my kids would scarf this down, I will have to do it today, considering it's so friggin crappy out and we are trapped inside. This sounds delicious!

In evolutionary anthropology and archaeology, sedentism (sometimes called sedentariness), is a term applied to the transition from nomadic lifestyle to a society that remains in one place permanently. Essentially, sedentism means living in groups permanently in one place.[1]
Requirements for permanent settlements[edit]
It is difficult to settle down permanently (to become sedentary) in a landscape without on-site agricultural or livestock-breeding resources, since sedentism requires sufficient year-round easily accessible local natural resources.
Sedentism requires good preservation and storage technologies, such as smoking, drying and fermentation, as well as good containers such as pottery, baskets or special pits in which to securely store food whilst making it available. It was only at locations where the resources of several major ecosystems overlapped that enabled the earliest sedentism to occur (non-agricultural sedentism). For example where a river met the sea, at lagoon environments along the coast, at river confluences, or where flat savanna met hills and mountains with rivers.
Before agriculture[edit]
In the last 30 years archaeological research has shown the earliest sedentism began with on-site agriculture and cattle breeding, and most researchers now believe that sedentism was a prerequisite for the first agriculture to occur. Sedentism usually meant more people, sturdier houses, new stone tools, more jewelry, burials or cemeteries, more long-distance goods and also clear signs of stratification. At sedentary sites usually more people lived together for a longer time compared to earlier base camp sites or annual gathering sites. This created deeper cultural layers and thus generally richer archaeological materials. There are also indications that the use of rock art is connected to sedentism, both pre-agricultural and agricultural forms.
Criteria for sedentism[edit]
In archaeology a number of criteria is necessary for the recognition of either semi or full sedentism.
According to Israeli archaeologist Ofer Bar-Yosef they are as follows:
1. Increasing presence of organisms who benefit from human sedentary activities, e.g.
- House mice
- Rats
- Sparrows
2. Cementum increments on gazelle teeth
- Indications that hunting took place in both winter and summer
3. Energy expenditure
- Leveling slopes
- Building houses
- Production of plaster
- Transport of undressed stones
- Digging of graves
- Shaping of big mortars[2]
A year-round sedentary site, with its larger population, generates a substantial demand on local naturally occurring resources, a demand that may have triggered the development of deliberate agriculture. In the Middle East the Natufian culture was the first to become sedentary at around 12000 BC. The Natufians were sedentary for more than 2000 years before they, at some sites, started to cultivate plants around 10000 BC. However, the first sedentary sites were pre-agricultural, and they appeared during the Upper Paleolithic in Moravia in Europe and on the Russian Plain during the interval of c. 25000-17000 BC.[3]
The Jōmon culture in Japan, which was primarily a coastal culture, was sedentary from c. 12000 to 10000 BC until the cultivation of rice at some sites in northern Kyushu.[4][5] In northernmost Scandinavia, there are several early sedentary sites without evidence of agriculture or cattle breeding. They appeared from c. 5300-4500 BC and are all located optimally in the landscape for extraction of major ecosystem resources.[6] In Sweden, the Lillberget Stone Age village site (c. 3900 BC) represents such a site, as do the Nyelv site (c. 5300 BC) in Norway, and in Finland the lake Inari site (c. 4500 BC).[7] In northern Sweden the earliest indication of agriculture occurs at previously sedentary sites, and one example is the Bjurselet site used during the period c. 2700-1700 BC, famous for its large caches of long distance traded flint axes from Denmark and southernmost Sweden (some 1300 km). The evidence of small-scale agriculture at that site can be seen from c. 2300 BC (burnt cereals of barley).
Sedentism increased contacts and trade, and the first Middle East cereals and cattle in Europe, could have spread through a stepping stone process, where the productive gift (cereals, cattle, sheep and goats) were exchanged through a network of large pre-agricultural sedentary sites, rather than a wave of advance spread of people with agricultural economy, and where the smaller sites found in between the bigger sedentary ones, did not get any of the new products. Not all contemporary sites during a certain period (after the first sedentism occurred at one site) were sedentary. Evaluation of habitational sites in northern Sweden indicates that less than 10 percent of all the sites around 4000 BC, were sedentary. At the same time, only 0.5-1 percent of these represented villages with more than 3-4 houses. This means that the old nomadic or migratory life style continued in a parallel fashion for several thousand years, until somewhat more sites turned to sedentism, and gradually switched over to agricultural sedentism.
The shift to sedentism is coupled with the adoption of new subsistence strategies, specifically from foraging (hunter-gatherer) to agricultural and animal domestication. The development of sedentism led to the rise of population aggregation and formation of villages, cities, and other community types.
In North America, evidence for sedentism emerges around 4500 BC.[citation needed]
Forced sedentism[edit]
Forced sedentism or sedentarization occurs when a dominant group restricts the movements of a nomadic group. Nomadic populations have undergone such a process since the first cultivation of land; the organization of the modern society have imposed demands that have pushed aboriginal populations to adopt a fixed habitat.
There are many examples of forced sedentarization with detrimental effects on minority groups in developed countries. The fate of many formerly nomadic groups has mainly been determined by policies instituted during western colonialism or by modern western governments. The ongoing destruction of nomadic peoples' ways of life constitutes a decline in human diversity and contributes to the hegemony of Western civilization.[citation needed]. This has caused great social decline and weakens the ethnic identities of affected populations, as examples show of North American indigenous peoples such as the Inuit in the mid-20th century.[citation needed]
At the end of the 19th and throughout the 20th century many previously nomadic tribes have turned to permanent settlement. It was a process initiated by local governments, and it was mainly a global trend forced by the changes in the attitude to the land and real property and also due to state policies. Among these nations are Negev Bedouin in Jordan, Israel and Egypt,[8] Bashkirs, Kyrgyz, Kazakhs in Soviet Russia, Tibetan nomads in China,[9] Babongo in Gabon, Baka in Cameroon,[10] etc.

Shed a McTeer
'Songcatcher' can't contain McTeer's powerful, flawed performance
By Richard von Busack
IT'S NOT THAT Janet McTeer is a bad actress--well, she can be bad, an overactor's overactor, every feature working, every gesture overdone--but McTeer has been bad in three different ways in the three films I've seen her in, which suggests that she might have a range that could be brought out. McTeer has plenty of fans. Women love her. She's tall and broad-shouldered and has a figure like Juno. She's about 40 and fearless, with a rough but queenly presence, uncrushed by the usual English educational methods of molding an actor. In her new film, Songcatcher, McTeer is, as always, semiatrocious. Here, as always, are glimpses of something powerful that could be channeled by a director who wasn't in awe of her.
In Songcatcher, director Maggie Greenwald reworks the foolproof African Queen motif. A starchy intellectual in the bush (this time, Appalachia 1907) is thawed by a rough-hewn, hard-drinking local man. After having been seduced and passed over for promotion at a college, musicologist Lily Penleric (McTeer) goes to visit her sister, Elna (Jane Adams), who is running a charity school in the mountains. While there, Lily learns that the British ballads are still being performed by the locals as they have been for decades. She vows to collect them on paper and on wax recording cylinders. We're told that the mountain people aren't dangerous, but you wouldn't bet a plugged nickel on the life of someone who carried on like Lily does. She's curt and patronizes the mountaineers to this side of bloodshed. While transcribing and recording these songs, Lily finds Tom Bledsoe (Aidan Quinn), one person who isn't intimidated by her. This Heathcliff of the mountains is an ex-coal miner and a veteran, perhaps with a touch of Spanish-American War syndrome. And he doesn't take kindly to city folks trying to sell his culture.
Greenwald's last film was the compact, tense Western The Ballad of Little Jo. Would that Ballad's Suzy Amis had been cast as Lily; Amis is an authentic country girl who would have gotten the mannerisms right. Greenwald overstuffs the tale with subplots--a sinister coal company man makes a lot of threats and then vanishes to make way for a lesbian love story involving Elna. And in McTeer, Greenwald has a star willing to harmonize with the director's habit of letting a smart left-wing entertainment get didactic.
Whatever else, the film's love of folk music is true. We see a woman sitting posed on the porch of her cabin, smudges of soot on her face; she opens her mouth to sing, and you realize she's Iris Dement. Quinn's Bledsoe plucks away with a black farmer, and it's Taj Mahal. As an orphan girl, Emmy Rossum's fetching innocence and high, pure voice on "Barbara Allen" almost stop the movie. Just as McTeer seems to be a good actor trying to emerge from a bad one, there's a good movie waiting to get out of this often wrong-headed one.

A LOOK to the skies gave us a sighting of the brightest comet this century and an eclipse of the moon.But back down on earth at Anfield we were privileged to see something that was out of this world. Football not of our planet, with enough shining stars to send Patrick Moore into overdrive.
It was unbelievable, mind-blowing experience that will live with me and the other privileged spectators forever.
We sat in awe of two teams challenging for the championship of England. But I would have made them both kings of the universe.
I have never been so elated and totally drained after 90 minutes of football that saw Liverpool finish winners.
But how the hell can you describe Newcastle as losers? That's an insult.
True, the defeat leaves rivals Manchester United in the driving seat at the top of the table and will be a much needed pick me up for flu ridden boss Alex Ferguson.
But who can count out either of these two greats sides from getting their hands on the three foot high piece of silverware next month?
This famous ground has seen many memorable matches, but none of the 40,000 jammed noisily into Anfield could have expected the action that was to follow before the cameras had rolled on this greatest show on earth.
It was like buying a ticket for a pleasure flight and finding yourself upgraded to Concorde. We were treated to a supersonic flight of fancy which included seven goals of breathtaking magnificence that deserve equal billing.
The first took our breath away after 97 seconds and the last found the net two minutes into injury time to keep the crowd behind long after the final whistle with endless choruses of You'll Never Walk Alone.
They came thick and fast these seven wonders of the soccer world.
The first went to Robbie Fowler as he ended a marvellous move he'd begun far out on the right. Jamie Redknapp took over the challenge to sweep the ball out to Robert Jones lurking on the left of the box.
His deft touch dropped to Stan Collymore who stepped past Steve Watson to deliver the perfect cross for Fowler to head down into the net.
But in the ninth minute Newcastle were level. Faustino Asprilla looked to be facing the immovable object of Neil Ruddock when he found the ball at his feet and causing no apparent threat.
Suddenly he nutmegged Ruddock and pulled the ball back for Les Ferdinand to swiftly turn and shoot home through the despairing hands of keeper David James.
Phew! You didn't think there was any more to come but oh, how we were mistaken as Newcastle blazed into the lead after 14 minutes.
Ferdinand, with his back to goal, controlled the ball in one brilliant moment and then sent it swerving into David Ginola's path in the next. The fantastic Frenchman out-paced Jason McAteer and then hammered into the net for his first goal since January 2.
We then had to wait another 40 minutes for the fourth goal of the night but we were kept well entertained in that period with some gobsmacking football.
The next strike came courtesy of Fowler who leap-frogged England striker Alan Shea-rer with his 35th goal of the season.
Steve McManaman embarked on a weaving run with Philippe Albert backing off for safety.
But just when the Belgian thought the danger was over McManaman picked out Fowler who drove home the equaliser and then finished up in the back of the net after a bellyflop on the turf.
Sixty seconds later Newcastle were back in the lead and looking a safe bet to claw back Manchester United's three point lead. Peter Beardsley linked with Robert Lee who sent Asprilla on his way with Liverpool desperately appealing for off-side.
Referee Mike Reed would have none of it, allowed play to continue and the Colombian cockily screwed the ball in past stranded keeper James.
The Newcastle bench erupted. They thought it was all over. But it wasn't.
McAteer sent a swerving ball into the area and beyond keeper Pavel Srnicek and there was Stan Collymore to prod the ball home to make it 3-3.
And with referee Reed adding on a couple of minutes at the end Collymore struck to dig the dagger deep into Keegan's heart.
Wise old head John Barnes did all the hard work in shielding the ball and laying it across for Collymore to steady his nerves before drilling the ball into the bottom corner to lift the lid off Anfield.
Seven magnificent strikes and too many chances to mention. We had a couple of Redknapp thunder-bolts, a McManaman left footer which was deflected over the bar.
A push from Barnes on Asprilla in the box that looked a penalty and then a John Scales header which hit Fowler on the line and bounced away from the danger zone.
We saw, too, Srnicek push away a Barnes pile driver and then somehow beat out a snap shot by Redknapp.
In fact we witnessed everything that is good about our national game.

JAMES: Won't be happy with Ferdinand goal but made fine second- half saves from Lee and Ferdinand. 7
McATEER: Non-stop display down the right flank. Kept Ginola well shackled in second half and laid on a Collymore goal. 8
WRIGHT: Not his normal strong self and withdrawn at half-time with an injury. 6
SCALES: Had his work cut out to keep Asprilla and Ferdinand quiet but as dependable as ever. 7
RUDDOCK: Stret-ched in the first half but improved as the match went on. 6
JONES: Solid show but hit by a back injury that eventually forced him off. 6
REDKNAPP: Continued his comeback with another mature display and some great long-range shooting. 7
BARNES: Kept his cool and his experience was vital - and he set up the winner. 7
McMANAMAN: Another brilliant display. There's simply no stopping this kid. Set up Fowler's second goal. 9
FOWLER: Two more dazzling goals to take his season's tally to 35 and ran his legs off. 9
COLLYMORE: Bou-nced back to form by making Liverpool's first and scoring their third and fourth. 8

HOWEY: Enhanced his growing reputation with another good show. 7
ALBERT: Not at his majestic best but still had a solid match. 6
BERESFORD: Hard-pressed to stop the dual threat of McManaman and McAteer down the right flank. 6
BEARDSLEY: Does not look happy on the right hand side of midfield but still had his moments. 6
BATTY: In a typically combative mood but still couldn't stem the irrepressible McManaman. 6
LEE: Worked his socks off in the engine room and didn't deserve to finish on the losing side. 8
GINOLA: Took his goal well but otherwise made little contribution and got rattled by McAteer. 6
ASPRILLA: Made Ferdinand's goal and scored one himself but faded. 7
FERDINAND: Scor-ed one and made one and saw James produce a superb stop when the score was three-all. 7
SUBS - Peacock (for Howey 83min).
REFEREE: Mike Reed (Birmingham) 8.
Compiled by
FOWLER v
THERE is simply no stopping Robbie Fowler at this moment in time.
He took just 97 seconds to open his account after ending a brilliant move that he himself had began on the right-hand side of the park.
The youngster added a superb second 10 minutes into the second half.
His second goal puts him ahead of Blackburn's Alan Shearer with 35 for the season - and his work- rate was just as impressive as his finishing skills.
It was yet another reminder of his enormous value to England's squad for the European championship.
But Les Ferdinand was also impressive, with a clinical finish for Newcastle's ninth-minute equaliser.
He then turned goal maker with a superb cross-field pass to put Ginola through for the second.
And his partnership with Asprilla looks to be gelling.
Ferdinand always looked lively - and his pace and awareness on the break kept the Liverpool defence on their toes.
v GINOLA
STEVE McManaman shaded this duel with a magnificent non-stop performance in which he kept Newcastle at full stretch throughout the 90 minutes.
Even the attention of David Batty couldn't stop the fleet-footed raider from setting up Fowler's second goal and generally giving the Geordies the slip.
His football was a joy to watch for most of the game, and he really looked in control and knowing where best to pass next when in possession. This player seems to get better and better - a fact he surely proved again last night.
He also seems to thrive under big pressure - and the heat was really on at Anfield.
Ginola took his goal clinically - it was an excellent run and finish.
But he was well-shackled for the most part by Jason McAteer.
He hardly contributed to his team's cause in the second half when he got involved in some running battles and appeared to get rattled.
v ASPRILLA
IT was another even contest between these two last night.
Collymore made Fowler's first goal with a superb cross and then struck Liverpool's 57th minute equaliser.
He made amends for his FA Cup semi-final nightmare against Aston Villa with a truly hard-working display throughout.
But the exciting Asprilla also had a fine game.
He set up Ferdinand's goal with a fine piece of trickery - which was typical of the player -and had Liverpool at full stretch with some of his mazy runs.
And he put his team ahead with a coolly-taken third goal for Newcastle.
A couple of times he looked like he might blow his top - but it was understandable such was the electric occasion.
But Colly had the last word with that sensational winner.
The match had all the makings for a last-gasp decider and cool Colly was in the right place to strike.

Taiwanese model Lin Chi-ling, left, and a sex doll based on her likeness. (Internet photo)
The most popular sex doll in China does not bear the face of Chinese movie actress Fan Bingbing or Japanese porn star Sora Aoi but Taiwan's top model Lin Chi-ling, reports our Chinese-language sister paper China Times.
The number of dolls matching a search for the Taiwanese model on Taobao, China's leading shopping website, was around 620, compared to 502 for Fan and only 175 for Aoi. Actress Yang Mi, who rose to fame for her role in TV period dramas Chinese Paladin 3 and Palace, has only eight imitation dolls to her credit, China Times noted.
Lin's popularity was reaffirmed recently when a Chinese shopping website auctioned a "lifelike" sex doll of the 38-year-old model. The number of bidders set a new record on the website and the price was pushed beyond 10,000 yuan (US$1,600).
Lin, who is known for her gentle demeanor and high emotional intelligence, responded to the popularity of her sex doll with good grace. "Thank you all for your support, but please remember it's not the real me!" she said.
Lin's agent said the model and her agency welcomed the support but noted that the dolls are a clear infringement of the model's image rights and will not rule out taking legal action in serious cases.

But the incident raises all sorts of serious issues, not the least of which is the lax backdoor security the Morning News has had for more than a decade. (One former employee says that as far back as 1990, he used to flash his J.C. Penney card to gain entrance, just to amuse himself.) "If you show so much as a pizza box, you get in," says one former DMNer.
Apparently, the only people who can't get in the DMN are opponents of the Trinity River project.
More important to Buzz, however, are the infinite number of questions this raises. Whose keyboard got Mountain Dew'd? If it was Steve Blow's, was the "!" key damaged, thus rendering him unable to type his column? Was this just a creative way to apply for a job as a copy editor? If so, allow us to let him in on a trade secret practiced here. Hey, buddy, whiz on a printout of the story, not on the computer itself. That hardware is valuable.
Backers of the proposal want companies that receive city tax abatements to pay wages at least $3 above the $5.15 federal minimum, but they were stunned last month to learn state law--as interpreted by city attorneys--requires a "super majority" to amend such agreements.
So what's their strategy to resurrect their cause? Ask a different lawyer. The coalition of community, labor, and civil-rights advocates are urging city leaders to think differently. "In a nutshell, our lawyers believe that the state law could be interpreted either way," said ACORN's Kimberly Olsen in an e-mail to fellow supporters. "This is about power; if the city wanted to do this, they could."
At press time, proponents were set to demand an unscheduled meeting with City Attorney Madeleine Johnson this week to urge a more favorable interpretation of state law.
If persuasion fails, a lawsuit is possible, ensuring that at least one needy downtrodden group will benefit financially from the cause. We, of course, mean lawyers.


text: The Malu Sebae Anemone is a less common form of the Sebae Anemones with its longer tentacles, and colored tips. Malu Sebae Anemone is a delicate anemone, and easily damaged. It can also be difficult to acclimate, so its care should only be attempted by the experienced aquarists. It prefers to have a sandy substrate allowing its base to be hidden from sight. It should not be placed on a rock. It requires strong lighting, moderate water flow, porous live rock, and a variety of sandy and rocky locations from which it can choose to live. It is a moderately difficult anemone to care for, but once acclimated, it can be very hardy. It requires feeding with a diet consisting of pieces of fish, clams, shrimp, and other meaty foods once a week. Approximate Purchase Size: Small 2" to 3" Medium 3" to 4" Large 4" to 8" |

Lukas Podolski is the latest in the German camp to speak of their high confidence going into Thursday's Euro 2012 semi-final against Italy.
Joachim Low's side will meet the Azzurri in Warsaw's National Stadium this midweek for a place in Sunday's final against either Portugal or Spain.
Talking to journalists ahead of facing the Italians, striker Podolski, who will join Arsenal after the tournament having reportedly rejected a move to Lazio, has reiterated Mesut Ozil's message that Germany are thinking only of winning the competition.
"Our confidence has never been so high," the 27-year-old said in his Press conference.
"We and Spain are the best interpreters of the modern game. I hope to play against them in the final, but first we have to win our game against the Azzurri.
"I saw them play and I do not think that they can cause us trouble, even if the game will still not be easy.
"But, we do not fear anyone and we really are capable of winning the European Championships."

Mitt Romney and Rick Perry win GOP debate with smart, slick and flawless performances
My quick reaction to the GOP debate tonight is that Mitt Romney and Rick Perry didn't hurt or help themsleves. They both turned in smart, slick and flawless performances. Jon Huntsman's defense of Al Gore's global warming alarmism in the name of appealing to gullible Goreans was the biggest fumble of the night. He's toast.
