Location: Kumasi, Ghana
Program Dates: May 1 - May 20, 2014
An International and Global Studies Sponsored Program
Study of Africa in Africa: Peoples and Cultures of Ghana
Location: Kumasi, Ghana
Course Overview
This course is an exploration of the peoples and cultures of Africa emphasizing the diversities and contrasts which characterize the continent. The focus of the course is Ghana, the first country in Sub-Saharan Africa to gain independence from Great Britain on March 6, 1957. The approach is to see Ghana as a microcosm of the African continent in terms of historical development, the diversities and contrasts in human and natural resources. The objective is to provide firsthand opportunity for students to experience Africa beyond the scope of tourist fantasies and wild imaginations, and thus replace myths with realities. Through lectures and relevant site visits students wil appreciate the historic place and impact of Ghana on African liberation movements in the 20th century.
Country Information
Ghana is home to a number of diverse peoples and cultures, all finding ways to coexist in a rapidly modernizing country. You'll see men and women in traditional clothes text messaging friends and suited businessmen taking offerings to tribal chiefs. Ghana has no iconic natural calling card like Victoria Falls or Kilimanjaro, but one look at a map reveals a geographic blessing: hundreds of kilometers of coast shared by beautiful beaches, like those at Busua & Dixcove, ruined European forts, such as Cape Coast Castle, the poignant reminders of the country's importance as a way station for African slaves, and the battered shacks of lively fishing villages. Accra is the commercial and cultural motor of the country, while Kumasi is the traditional home of the Ashanti, and is famous for its crafts. In the Volta region to the east, where the geography was given a facelift by the Akosombo dam, you can still find substantial swathes of forest crawling up mountains along the Togo border. And finally the North, which offers opportunities for wildlife viewing up close and personal, stretches across the horizon like an overcooked pancake to the Burkina Faso frontier.

4. Common mistakes and assumptions

6. If a complaint is made
7. Feedback and comments
1. What are defamation and libel?
Defamation is any published material that damages the reputation of an individual or an organisation. This covers material on the internet as well as radio and television broadcasts - so even drama and fiction can be defamatory if they damage someone�s reputation. You can only publish defamatory material if it comes within one of the recognised legal defences. If it doesn�t, the publication will amount to libel and you may have to pay substantial damages.
Libel online
Slander is 'defamation by word of mouth'Internet sites are not exempt from any libel laws. If you are publishing on the internet you are bound by the same libel laws as print publishers.
In a significant ruling in 2002, the Australian high court ruled that mining magnate Joseph Gutnick could sue publisher Dow Jones under Australian law for alleged libel online. The judge deemed that the web was no different from newspapers or television.
In the UK, internet service providers are coming under increasing pressure to close sites containing defamatory allegations. You also have to be careful about the comments others post on your site. There have been cases where individuals have sued online publishers for libel over customer book reviews published on their sites.
Such developments have implications for freedom of expression.
The purpose of libel law
Libel law protects individuals or organisations from unwarranted, mistaken or untruthful attacks on their reputation. A person is libelled if a publication:
- Exposes them to hatred, ridicule or contempt
- Causes them to be shunned or avoided
- Discredits them in their trade, business or profession
- Generally lowers them in the eyes of right thinking members of society
^^back to top
2. Get your facts right
The most important point is to make absolutely sure that what you are printing or writing is true. Do not make claims or accusations that you cannot prove. Even if you think you can do this, be cautious. Proving things in court can be very difficult.
And the test of what the words mean is what a reasonable reader is likely to take as their natural and ordinary meaning, in their full context - what you intended as the author or publisher is irrelevant.
If you write something that cannot be substantiated the credibility of your site, organisation or cause may be questioned. It can also land you with an expensive lawsuit and there is no legal aid for libel cases.
The burden of proof lies with the defendant
Almost uniquely in English law, in libel cases the burden of proof lies with the author / publisher and not the complainant. In other words, you have to prove that what you write is true. The person you�ve targeted does not have to prove that you�re wrong.
In 1990 McDonalds served a libel writ on several members of a campaigning organisation over the production and distribution of the �What�s Wrong with McDonalds?� leaflet. The legal battle between Helen Steel and David Morris, a gardener and a postman, and the McDonalds corporation became one of the most famous cases in British legal history, not least because it became the longest running British trial.
To win the case, the pair would have to prove from primary sources the truth of their allegations about McDonalds. After hearing all the evidence, the judge (who did find that some of the allegations were true) ruled that the pair had libelled McDonalds because the evidence they called was not enough to prove the majority of their statements. They were ordered to pay damages of �60, 000. The trial was estimated to have cost millions of pounds in legal fees.
^^back to top
3. Three tips for writing
Libel is 'defamation in a permanent form'Don�t rely on the literal meaning
You cannot solely rely on proving that your statements were literally true if, when they�re taken as a whole, they have an extended, more damaging meaning. Also, for example, if somebody was guilty of fraud once, calling him a fraudster in a way which might suggest he�s still doing the same may well give rise to a libel which can�t be defended. Be especially wary when referring to events in the past.
Don�t exaggerate in your claims or language
For example, a company may run a factory which produces certain chemicals. For you to suggest that babies will be born deformed as a result may get you into libel trouble.
Innuendo can catch you out
Your comments may not appear particularly defamatory taken at face value, but greater knowledge of a person or situation may make it problematic because of the innuendo. To say Mr Jones doesn�t recycle his waste paper may sound harmless enough. But to people who know that Mr Jones is a Green Party activist, the innuendo of the statement is that he is hypocritical in his politics.
^^back to top
4. Common mistakes and assumptions
Repeating rumours
It is inadvisable to repeat a defamatory rumour unless you are in a position to prove it�s true. Even if you are contradicting the rumour you should not repeat it. And adding �allegedly� is not enough to get you out of libel difficulties.
Quoting others
If you publish defamatory remarks about people or organisations made by other people you will be just as liable to be sued as they are. So if you can�t prove the truth of their statements, don�t repeat them.
Drawing unprovable conclusions
It is a common mistake to draw unverifiable conclusions from the basic facts. For example, if Mr Brown is seen going into a hotel room with a call-girl, this does not necessarily mean he enjoyed a �night of passion�, and will certainly not prove that he did.
Irresponsible adjectives
Be very careful about the adjectives you use. A misplaced word can result in costly action. If you are campaigning about a factory that releases chemicals into the atmosphere, referring to the factory as �poisoning the atmosphere� is inadvisable!
Representing all sides
Presenting all sides of an argument is often good practice, but is not a defence against publishing defamatory remarks made by or about those involved.
^^back to top
5. Defences against libel
The law lays down a number of ways in which defamatory publications may be defended. If the defences succeed, the publisher wins. But if they don�t succeed, the publisher loses: the complainant will have been libelled and will therefore be entitled to be paid damages and their legal costs. The defences are listed below.
The most usual defence against libel is to prove that the information published is true. But this can be a dangerous route because an unsuccessful plea could increase the damages against you because you will have increased the harm to the complainant. And remember, you must be able to deal with every libellous possibility, such as inference and innuendo. If your statement infers something greater, it is not enough to prove that the statement is just literally true. Merely asserting something will not be sufficient to prove that it�s true - you will need witnesses and documents to back up assertions (whether they�re yours or someone you�re quoting).
Fair comment
Fair comment covers content, mainly opinion, that cannot by its very nature be true or false. To be properly defensible, these comments must be:
- Based on fact
- Made in good faith
- Published without malice
- On a matter of public interest
Privilege is the defence where the law recognises that individuals should be free to speak their minds (and others to report what they say) without fear of being sued even if they get their facts wrong. It allows people to speak freely in court proceedings and debates in Parliament, and allows for such proceedings to be reported, so long as the reports are both fair and accurate.
^^back to top
6. If a complaint is made
Remember the burden of proof lies with the authorWhat follows does not constitute legal advice, but if a complaint is made against you or your campaign, you could consider one or more of the following steps, depending on how serious the complaint is or how far you wish to pursue your case:
- Take legal advice as soon as possible and before responding to the claimant
- Check the original statement and any associated investigative work collected before it was written
- Consider withdrawing the original statement if, after checking, you think your words were mistaken
- Perhaps do further investigative work to help explain your position
- Keep all drafts and supplementary documentary evidence
- Ensure all those involved in the writing and research of the statement are aware of the situation and aware they may have to provide evidence or statements
- Inform your insurers, if you have libel insurance, and comply with their requests

The interests of chemical engineering researchers overlap with the interests of researchers from other sciences such as chemistry, biology, applied physics, and applied mathematics, as well as those from other engineering disciplines such as electrical, biological/biomedical/bioengineering, mechanical, civil, or materials sciences. As a result, the Panel opted to refine the search of publications and explore the relative contributions by chemical engineers in the United States and other regions of the world among themselves and vis à vis researchers from other disciplines.
Affiliation of a researcher with a group that carries the name "chemical engineering" limits the analysis of relative research competitiveness across the world. For example, researchers in certain countries of the European Union and Japan, who are by U.S. definition chemical engineers, are not affiliated with units carrying the name "chemical engineering" in their home institutions. Refinement of the search through the mechanisms available in Web of Science® is difficult, impractical, or impossible. Therefore, the Panel recognizes that a certain ambiguity as to what constitutes a proper comparison of chemical engineering publications by various regions of the world is present throughout Chapters 3 and 4 of this report. To overcome this ambiguity, the Panel has added an analysis of relative competitiveness by U.S. and non-U.S. researchers in each subarea across disciplinary distinctions.
Publication rates and citations per paper vary widely among the various subareas of chemical engineering, and the Panel resisted making broad comparisons of different subareas in terms of these metrics. The only exception is the analysis of publications in the journals with broad coverage of chemical engineering, namely, AIChE Journal, I&EC Research, and Chemical Engineering Science, because the Panel wanted to assess the trends of publication rates in various subareas of chemical engineering over time.
The number of papers in the top 100 (or 50, or 30, depending on subarea) most-cited papers in a particular subarea was used as a metric to assess impact. The Panel recognizes the potential pitfalls of such a metric, but it resolved that it is quite representative of relative significance of research contributions, especially if comparisons are limited within the scope of a specific subarea of chemical engineering.

Are the WTA players not strong enough for the WW forehand?

I noticed that a lot of the WTA Players with "ATP FHs" often lack Penetration in their FH (like the italian and spanish Girls who all use the WW finish) and most hard hitting Girls use more of a swing through (against the other shoulder) finish.
We can certainly find instances of rather powerful and muscular human beings who manage to hit impressive ground strokes, regardless of their unusual technique. It is not impossible and it would seem contrary to various principles which modern psychology underlines. Certainly, you can get good at doing something wrong, bearing some limits which are imposed by physical laws and anatomical structure. The point is that there is a series of traits that a good forehand must present and it must be present at the right moment. How you manage to get them is not important, unless differences between methods happen to exist.
Here, theories meet their practical applications. Certain ways of performing tasks make it easier to duplicate them consistently, which is a primary objective in tennis. Surprisingly enough, most professional players, including top pros on both the male and female tours, do not use the most efficient way to hit a tennis forehand. The most stunning fact of this narrative is not the relative scarceness of good forehand models that we may wish to emulate in great parts, but the relative obviousness which makes the difference between both.
The key detail that I am referring occurs in between the take back and the forward acceleration; it occurs as the player first moves his racket forward. The better players pronate at this moment, whereas others supinate (that is, some of them point their palm down while others start turning their palm toward the sky). And, as usual with tennis, good technique gives you everything: more pace, more spin, more control, more consistency...
Do you know why? Those who supinate at this moment cannot manage to get a specific type of muscular reflex force their forearm into a very violent pronation around contact; those who do pronate here, will manage to get it. And, as you might have guessed, both must meet the ball with roughly the same racket head angle (with a slight forward tilt). The player who benefits of the muscular reflex closes his racket of exactly the same amount every time, with exactly the same timing... the other one must actively force his forearm into pronating.
It doesn't mean that you can't play without it. In truth, most top pros who have even won hundreds of thousands in prize money do not do it and they could get better almost instantly by learning it. These players can manage to become good at doing something wrong: they have hours and hours of practice to force a good habit into a bad technical framework... But we're amateurs and time is counted. We can't fool around for years to get our top spin forehand under control... the quicker, the better. Players that hit their forehands properly including all of the current top four (without surprise, they're also hitting some of the biggest forehands ever) and players such as Berdych, Soderlign and Roddick. On the other hand, there are players such as Gonzalez (who's retired now, if I recall properly), virtually every women on the WTA tour and, for a clear example, Hewitt. I do have one example of a woman who hits it properly: Stosur. Sam Stosur's forehand is by far the heaviest thing you will find a woman hitting -- the William sisters and others may hit with as much pace, but Stosur has both pace and spin all the time.
For curious reasons, there are flat hitters who use this trick, as noted. But they're consistently hitting great flat forehands... it's that spin is not unilaterally determined by one variable. Anyway, if you want to know why a WW forehand MAY result in more spin, it's this specific thing. What you see a "wiper" action at the end is actually a severe forearm pronation. For some players, it does work: they do get extra spin because of their beneficial muscular reflex (it's a stretch-shortening cycle, for wonks), others just fail to make it happen early enough and, so, they perform the whole thing once the ball is already gone.
As for woman, it's a symptom of a whole generation, so to speak. Rare birds get the movement right -- it's not that it's hard, it's that you have to know it or to be very lucky. You, personally, could make it happen and use it -- and you could boast that your forehand has one element which is technically more efficient than that of a GS champion (Hewitt) and it's the stretch-shortening cycle of the forearm pronators.

Can anyone tell me where I could find a list of names of Officers of Garabaldis army pre Unification of Italy. I know there were quite a few that deserted about 19 March 1849. Also that these Officers were men from the families of the nobility.
Any assistance would be useful. Thankyou Kesannah

How big to go on a tow rig

You mentioned a Grand Cherokee. Do you own one?
If so, use it.
Bigger trans cooler, maybe some Air-Lift bags and see how it does for a while.
Another option to consider is an Expedition. A buddy just bought one to tow his bread trailer (distributor) and loves it.
20mpg with anything that will tow that trailer easily isn't happening on your budget, and would be hard to find with a much larger budget.
My Tundra gets about 16.5 mpg empty, but it's rarely empty.
A trailer like yours, loaded and it's going to be around 10-11 mpg probably.
Any diesel you find at or under $6K I wouldn't want. Folks here treat them as if they are made of gold, prices are stupid.
I know a guy with one of the GM military trucks, and a Blazer (CUCV?) he swears by them, but he is an old fart and I doubt he's been more than 100 miles from home for 20 years.

OMAHA, Neb. -- Nebraska interim athletic director Tom Osborne responded Thursday to reports that football coach Bill Callahan said the former coach was "trying to run things from Washington" while he was a U.S. congressman.
Callahan allegedly called Osborne a "crusty old [expletive]," according to former Nebraska football trainer Doak Ostergard, who is quoted in a book to be self-published by a student at the University of Nebraska.

Finding the best race pace is an important skill to develop and keep working on for endurance runners.
If you start out too fast, you may struggle to make it across the finish line. So how much should you hold back in the beginning?
Pay attention to time and pace with a stop watch during your workouts. The numbers are key, but what your body tells you is just as important.
Take a look at the video below where author and running coach Matt Fitzgerald explains how advancing these abilities can lead to more success on race day.

I ran a half marathon in my sleep last night.
It was like one of those dreams you have where you're late for an important test at school and your teacher won't let you retake it.
This morning I awoke from a dream where I was late for the marathon.
I showed up to the race 30 minutes late and the 23,000 participants were already off and running.
Somehow I ran the whole race by myself around an abandoned track and had to keep count of the number of laps I ran to equal the 13.1 miles. It was pretty awful. Although, there was one redeeming part.

A friend reminded me today that we only have two months left to train for the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon. Yikes, really?
How's your training going? Are you on track?
If you're following one of Hal Higdon's half marathon training charts, you should be on week 3.
This schedule assumes you already have the ability to run 3 miles, three to four times a week. If you're like me, most of you who have signed up for the RnR have been training for a while now.

Can pull mirror body off completely if needed. Frame and mount are durable. Broke the mirror glass in a fall so not completely indestructible. Ordered replacement and happy again.Read All Reviews

What You're Missing On The Internet
Since you spend all day on the Tosh blog, here's what you're missing on the rest of the web:
- Porn stars name all the Presidents. Happy President's Day, ya pervs.
- Snorting this makes you horny. No, it's not cocaine. But that works too.
- This baby is ready to hit the town. If you aren't using the makeup app on your baby, you're an unfit parent.
- The Oscar Mayer Weinermobile crashed in Pennsylvania. It was a grisly scene. Real mustard-bath.
- This weather reporter loves thundersnow more than you have ever loved anything in your meaningless, unfulfilling life.
- It's Monday, enjoy some heaping piles of cleavage.
- Dad and daughter square off. She's kind of hard to understand, but I think she just called him a "little bitch."
- Presidents who partied hard. It's time we properly salute our past Commanders in Awesome.

Last Man Standing: On Clint Eastwood
People have been writing Clint Eastwood's obituary for about as long as the man's been making movies. This is not without his encouragement. Every new picture is a valediction, as every ending ushers our martyred hero off into the shadows to his eternal good night. Last year's release of Gran Torino, said to be Clint's final film as a performer, only heightens the impulse to tie a bow around his career. Nostalgic reverence is not much to ask from an audience, but Eastwood seeks it again and again, with a child's petulant sense of entitlement. Though he was born in San Francisco, he missed the summer of love, LSD, the sexual revolution and all the spoils of American bohemia because he was too busy combating evil and moral relativism in the name of justice. Sacrifice demands recognition. In contemporary American cinema, Clint Eastwood is our perennial Last Man Standing. But what is he standing on, or for, and why is he so eager to hide it?
Always the father, never the son, Eastwood is a male Athena emerged fully formed from the Nixon-era hive mind, ready and willing to blast a hole through any son of a bitch who asks too many questions. A lightning rod for cheap moralizing, a starkly ambivalent embodiment of American masculinity, a callous vigilante and a sentimental old fogy, Clint Eastwood has become indivisible from his many myths. Fearing exposure as an actor, he wrested control over his image by becoming a methodical, disciplined director. In his guise as a traditional stoic with no use for politics, he actively assaults the pieties of social progress, perversely testing the limits of audience support, and those caught in his paternal sway reward him for his tough love. Unforgiven? No. Always forgiven.
Eastwood's persona begs scrutiny because his accomplishments befit the title of a true American Original. A gentle stylist informed by classic Hollywood tropes, obsessed with the interplay between darkness and light, as well as a plain-spoken existentialist who remains fearless in the face of Big Questions, Eastwood makes films that still draw teenagers to drive-ins and elicit weeping at the Museum of Modern Art. As a director, he conceives of his disparate films as a body of work to be reckoned with in toto, but he's also a full-time curator of the pesky, ever resurfacing "Clint Eastwood, cowboy hero" mythology. These two enterprises are at odds with each other, and they present a challenge he has never quite overcome. In his desire to be both the uncomplicated hero and the morally conflicted poet of masculine despair, Eastwood has sacrificed some of his work's potential power. What remains, behind all the bluster, is the man's need. Like any icon, the 78-year-old Clint Eastwood just wants to be adored, but his conception of manhood won't allow him to admit it.
This story begins in 1971, when the center could not hold, except at the movies. That December, Dirty Harry premiered at a benefit for the San Francisco Police Activities League, a hospitable setting for a film that opens with a scrolling tribute to Bay Area cops killed in the line of duty. The pre-credit sequence showcases an unhip reverence for law and order, a gesture made doubly provocative by the fact that only a single nameless cop is killed in the film. It was just a taste of the provocation to come. Directed by hard-nosed B movie auteur Don Siegel and featuring Eastwood, Box Office magazine's "star of the year," Dirty Harry is an endlessly inflammatory, almost anarchic movie, one that undermines the viewer's trust in all institutions, all heroes, all villains.
The movie's setup is outlandish. The titular San Francisco police inspector chases the sadistic and methodical Scorpio--a serial killer with shaggy hippie hair and an effeminate demeanor--around the city of leftist vice, eventually exploiting all manner of enhanced interrogation techniques in order to protect Scorpio's targets, while his weak-willed superiors (aided, naturally, by a Berkeley law professor) prefer to acquiesce to the killer's demands. No real-world police force would let a murderer run free on such minor technicalities. But in the decade following Miranda v. Arizona and Escobedo v. Illinois, Eastwood's cop is revolted by a justice system that affords the criminal more rights than the victim. A virile, quietly menacing crusader for a justice that transcends the rule of law, "Dirty" Harry Callahan and his .44 Magnum bore the burden for all that polite liberal America truly felt but was afraid to say. The man who had made his name as the Man With No Name in Sergio Leone's spaghetti westerns became the mythical manifestation of Nixon's Silent Majority.
A one-woman subsection of liberal America pushed back, and not at all politely. In the January 15, 1972, issue of The New Yorker, Pauline Kael wrote:
Dirty Harry is obviously just a genre movie, but this action genre has always had a fascist potential, and it has finally surfaced. If crime were caused by super-evil dragons, there would be no Miranda, no Escobedo; we could all be licensed to kill, like Dirty Harry. But since crime is caused by deprivation, misery, psychopathology, and social injustice, Dirty Harry is a deeply immoral movie.
In essence, Kael accused Siegel and Eastwood of training American anger on an Evil With No Name. Evil is treated as something imprecise, the product of unknowable origins. It's a devilishly effective diatribe, even if Kael does manage to squeeze off a few cheap shots. "On the way out, a pink-cheeked little girl was saying 'That was a good picture' to her father," Kael notes, with improbable verisimilitude. She also claims, "The movie was cheered and applauded by Puerto Ricans in the audience, and they jeered--as they were meant to--when the maniac whined and pleaded for his legal rights." How she verified the ethnic makeup of the audience while watching the movie escapes me.
Richard Schickel, author of the deferential but illuminating 1996 authorized biography Clint Eastwood, claims that the actor had no intention of causing an uproar with Dirty Harry and that the Kael review and its fallout haunted Eastwood throughout his career. "One time in the midst of his recent acclaim he asked me if I'd happened to see an interview in which Pauline Kael said that one of her regrets about retirement was that she no longer had a forum in which to criticize Clint Eastwood. 'Can you imagine that kind of bigotry?' He sighed." Nevertheless, in his examination of the Kael fallout, Schickel allows that the review may have provided short-term benefits for the actor:
She made people wonder: Did this guarded and enigmatic character have a devious political agenda, more threatening than, say, John Wayne's, who had at least always been forthright about his reactionary views? Was he something more than an actor who specialized in playing dangerous characters? Was he, in himself, a dangerous character? Unwittingly, Kael made him into a subject for speculation in circles where scarcely a serious thought had been spared for him previously.
With just a few column inches, Kael had ushered the popcorn demigod into the political spotlight. Despite his protestations, he has remained there ever since, keeping close watch over his mystique. At the 1971 Oscars, though Eastwood's breakthrough film had received no nominations, angry moviegoers raised placards that read Dirty Harry Is a Rotten Pig. According to J. Hoberman's whirlwind history of 1960s cinema and politics, The Dream Life, which features a stylized snapshot of Harry Callahan on its front cover, sporting his outsize revolver and a Nixon/Agnew '72 pin, George H.W. Bush would later credit Ronald Reagan for transforming America's moviegoing predilections: citizens now wanted less Easy Rider and more Dirty Harry. As president, brandishing his veto power like a Smith & Wesson, Reagan would respond to a tax-happy Congress by hissing the very words Dirty Harry used to taunt perps: "Go ahead, make my day." At the same time, Eastwood's vigilante flick was reportedly the movie most often screened by Leonid Brezhnev and the Politburo.
Whatever his feelings about the role, Clint Eastwood does not bear responsibility for the cultural appropriation of Dirty Harry. He didn't write or direct the film--though Sudden Impact (1983), the sequel he did direct, is even less morally conflicted than the original. After Sondra Locke begins killing off members of the gang that raped her and her sister, Dirty Harry ends up directly assisting this killer's cause. Harry spits his "make my day" barb for the first time in this sequel, making clear that the killing could metamorphose into something enjoyable. Eastwood never disavowed the message of Siegel's original but interpreted it as a simple plea for common sense. "The real romance of the film," Eastwood once said, is that "the audience is sitting there going, 'Yeah, if I was stuck down [in a pit] for five hours, I wouldn't want some guy talking about the Miranda decision. I'd want somebody out there trying to get my ass out of there.' That's just kind of basic. I didn't see anything political about that."
Kael had it mostly right when she described Dirty Harry as a "hardhat The Fountainhead." Howard Roark, the Ayn Rand novel's hero as well as her ultimate idealist, is colored by his absolute refusal to compromise and his faith in the virtue of his selfishness. He takes what he wants--even rape is justified--in pursuit of a beautiful higher vision. High Plains Drifter (1973), the first western that Eastwood directed, is an absolute Randian vision. In the film, the citizens of a fallen town grant free agency to the nameless superman who arrives on a horse to save them from themselves. Common folks are portrayed as shallow, cowardly and unheroic--Eastwood's character makes a mockery of their democracy by pinning the sheriff's badge on a dwarf. To repay their savior, they relinquish to him their women, their food and their free will without question. It's hell even before Eastwood forces them to literally paint the town red.
"Dirty" Harry Callahan is not quite a Roark figure. The man's sadness, and his protective instinct, stems from the death of his wife, though we never learn anything about their life together. His vigilantism is not the pursuit of a higher vision but rather a pragmatic attempt to prevent the pain of the innocent. That said, this man is an island; he has no childhood, no lover, no friends. Dirty Harry is not alone in his isolation: in High Plains Drifter, Eastwood's character is known as the Stranger. In Pale Rider, he is simply the Preacher. In Sergio Leone's westerns, he has no name at all. Perhaps Dirty Harry is most pointedly a cautionary tale about rootless heroes who attempt to define evil on their own terms--Scorpio is the kind of absolutist villain only Harry Callahan could invent.
The common thread in Eastwood-directed films is the exposure of namelessness as a lie. Nearly every Eastwood character--and despite the fact that Eastwood the director has never written a single script, there are few other actors who so consistently cast themselves in the same role--attempts to operate as a lone wolf, motivated by self-interest, and his autonomy is always cut down by family ties, origins or returns of the repressed. He reminds viewers that every self-projected myth of manhood hides a stockpile of shortcomings and embarrassments. Nothing comes from nowhere. John Wayne's real name, don't forget, was Marion Morrison.
Some icons are martyrs to a cause. Eastwood is a martyr to himself. His intransigence (and manhood) is always under assault from liberal pieties--or from feminists, civil libertarians, good-government bureaucrats and people of color. He is not just a fatalist or a cynic; he is a declinist. Even as a young actor--and it's important to note that he has never looked young in a movie--he set himself in opposition to cultural progress. The youth have nothing to offer and exist only to be trained. Though his characters eventually yield to the prevailing societal currents, it's never without an air of self-congratulation. We are expected to celebrate Eastwood for his minimal gestures of conciliation. In The Fountainhead, Dominique asserts that Roark's greatness should not be offered to a world unwilling to express its gratitude. Eastwood feels much the same way.

Had booked this hotel last minute for a short break in Cambridge. Hotel has a boutique feel, beautifully furnished, fabulous breakfast and great service. We got a very good deal considering we had a family room and breakfast included.
Highly recommended! less
We booked The Gonville as we were in town for a concert at The Corn Exchange, which is about a 10 minute walk away. The fact it had a good sized car park was also a major factor. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome, and nothing was too much trouble. Reception staff were very professional, friendly and efficient.
Our room was quite adequately furnished and attractively decorated, we could not fault it size wise, the bed was very comfortable, and plenty big enough. We had large French windows opening onto a small Juliet balcony, overlooking Parker's Piece. The hospitality tray contained a good selection of teas, coffee and hot chocolate, and still and sparkling water was provided in the room. The free wifi and use of complimentary tablet was a welcome touch.
The noise of the airconditioning unit was a little intrusive, so we asked at reception for this to be remedied, which it was. The member of staff who came to solve our problem was a young Swedish gentleman who was absolutely charming, and so helpful and polite.
We were a little taken aback by the obscure glass door to the lavatory/wet room, which we thought offered very little privacy, but this was a minor grumble and didn't cause us too much inconvenience.
The choice at breakfast was superb - everything you would expect and more, with unlimited juice, tea and coffee, The breakfast room itself was a particularly pleasant area, modern, light and airy. Service was swift, polite and efficient, provided by obviously very well trained staff.
I would not hesitate to recommend The Gonville to anyone visiting Cambridge who requires a city centre based hotel with car parking. less
This is a lovely hotel overlooking Parkers Piece but set back from the road. A very easy walk into the centre of Cambridge. Staff were very helpful and friendly, the room was stylish though we both hated the overhead shower head. Breakfast very good and a reasonable price if you pay the inclusive price. The added bonus is plenty of free parking which if you've ever paid for an overnight stay in Grand Arcade you'd know what I was talking about. We didn't eat dinner here as there are so many good places to eat in Cambridge. less
A lovely hotel within an easy walk of Cambridge University and the surrounding sites. Hotel staff were amazing and so helpful. We were there 4 nights and they knew our names by the second day. Breakfast was very good and choices ample. Restaurant for dinner was also nice, but there are so many restaurants within walking distance, we only ate there the first night. Rooms were spacious. Our only issue was that the rooms were very warm and we couldn't open our window. Would definitely recommend and would return if ever in Cambridge again. less
From the moment we arrived we were treated superbly by the staff. There is ample parking, but if you dont know where the hotel is it comes up fast on you - even with satnav.
Hotel is really clean, rooms well serviced, the staff seemed really happy and friendly. Walked all around town, restaurants, pubs shops all a few minutes walk across the park. City centre hotel but overlooking a lovely park so lovely views. Looking at other hotels in Cambridge this seemed to be the best option - certainly would be the quietest location. Tried to think of a fault but couldn't. Not cheap but it is in the centre of Cambridge so you expect that. Free iPad a nice touch. Didn't have a mini bar but water was supplied. less

The Great Mormon butterfly, Papilio memnon, is a large swallowtail butterfly (family Papilionidae) with wingspan up to 135mm, native to and common throughout Southeast Asia. Larvae feed on citrus species, particularly pomelo (citrus grandis) and common lime (citrus aurantifolia) which are broadly cultivated across Asia. Adults lay single eggs on the underside of leaves, which hatch in three days. For the first four instars, caterpillars resemble bird droppings. Pupation occurs after about 2.5 weeks. Adults inhabit forest clearings and disturbed areas, eating nectar from a wide variety of flowering species.
Alfred Russel Wallace first described the remarkable polymorphic nature of P. memnon, which exists as 13 subspecies and in addition, females show a large diversity of morphological and coloration forms, many of which are mimetic of other unpalatable papilionid species (Batesian mimicry). Female morphological variations include: presence or absence of tails, hindwing pattern, forewing pattern, color of the basal triangle on the forewing, and abdomen color. Extensive study of this species has contributed insight into the genetic determination of mimicry. These studies give classic evidence for existence of a "supergene" complex, which slowly built up over the course of evolution allowing butterfly species to mimic their models very accurately. This complex includes multiple linked genes that control the morphological variations listed above via genetic crossover, rather than these traits diversifying individually by point mutations, or other genetic mechanism.
Papilio memnon was featured in the Smithsonian's spring quiz in 2012. An unusual gynandromorph (half male, half female) attracted a lot of attention when it eclosed at the "Sensational Butterflies" exhibition at the Natural History Museum in London (Sample 2011)

Restored masterpiece opens Cinema One
Late National Artist Eddie Romero's 'Ganito Kami Noon, Paano Kayo Ngayon?' digitally enhanced
More News from Bayani San Diego Jr.
Some of those who attended a recent preview of the restored version of Eddie Romero's "Ganito Kami Noon, Paano Kayo Ngayon?" had not been born when the film was released in 1976.
But the young viewers were just as moved by the film's "narrative wit and cultural significance" as the older cineastes, said Leo Katigbak, head of ABS-CBN Archives.
"Ganito Kami Noon, Paano Kayo Ngayon?" premieres on Nov. 10, 6 p.m., at Trinoma, as the opening film of Cinema One Originals Festival. The fest runs until Nov. 19 at Trinoma, Robinsons Galleria and Glorietta.
Far from dated
For a "period epic" set during the Philippine revolution of 1898, "Ganito Kami Noon" is curiously far from dated—making the digital restoration efforts of ABS-CBN Archives and Central Digital Lab all the more significant.
"Made a few years after martial law was declared in 1972, it could very well serve as an allegory of that time," Katigbak explained. "But it also addresses a contemporary concern on the question of national identity."
Then as now, the film "allows viewers to reflect and ponder … there is so much to be proud of as Filipinos, but we can't perceive a sense [of nationalism] nowadays," he said.
The movie should be seen by today's generation precisely because its message is timeless, Katigbak pointed out. "The issues it tackles are as valid today as they were in the 1970s [and] at the turn of the previous century."
The restoration project is a fitting tribute to the late writer-director who passed away last May 28.
Filmmaker Joey Romero, the national artist's son, agreed with Katigbak: "Although set in 1898, the film's theme and characters are very current."
"Ganito Kami Noon," which swept the major awards in the 1976 Metro Manila Film Festival, was declared part of the National Heritage by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, noted the younger Romero. "The master negative is stored for proper maintenance in the archives of the British Film Institute (BFI). The only print [locally] available is not in the best shape, with the opening and closing credits missing."
Before Eddie Romero's health deteriorated, he was working on returning a copy of the film to the country. "He wanted to order a new print from the BFI, using his personal funds," the director's son recalled. "His plan was to save the new print in digital form, which he meant to bequeath to the Filipino people."
Marked improvements
The national artist knew of the film's restoration by ABS-CBN Archives and Central Digital Lab. "He said he was happy that his film could be seen by a new generation," said Joey Romero, who was familiar with the team's previous restoration projects—Ishmael Bernal's "Himala" and Peque Gallaga's "Oro, Plata, Mata."
"I noticed the marked improvements on the two past movies … I was invited to sit through the color grading of 'Ganito Kami Noon' and was impressed by the technology available. The finished product gives the impression that it's a new movie shot on high-definition."
Severely damaged
"We were fortunate that the colors of the print were still good, but it was severely damaged," recounted Manet Dayrit, president of Central Digital Lab. "We had to remove lots of scratches. It took a team of 12 people 2,200 hours to finish 'Ganito Kami Noon,' while 'Oro' only took 1,700 hours."
The group's restoration efforts have been recognized by the Archiving Association of Southeast Asia, making it the culminating presentation at the Bangkok Conference last May.
A reminder
According to Katigbak, the restored "Ganito Kami Noon" also served as a reminder that the movie industry is not only capable of churning out commercial blockbusters, but was once a proud producer of enduring masterpieces.
The whole point of the restoration process is to make "forgotten" classics readily available and accessible to viewers, old and young alike.
Katigbak related: "Like 'Himala' and 'Oro,' 'Ganito Kami Noon' will go through the pipeline as if it was a new film. It will have a premiere, a theatrical run … and will be made available on DVD, pay-per-view, cable, broadcast, iTunes … on whatever platform possible."
Also in the works is a campus tour.
"We want to expose more young people to the classics," Katigbak said. "Many of them are not even familiar with the master directors. We should constantly remind today's generation of our great cinematic legacy."

Laura Govan fired shots at quite a few of her "Basketball Wives: L.A." co-stars this week and hinted that VH1 cut footage of her beating up on Draya Michele.
Laura tuned in with viewers for part 2 of the season 2 reunion, and aimed her Twitter target at nemesis Adiz Bambi, who suggested Gloria Govan Barnes' web series was nothing to boast about. Of course, Laura came to her sister's defense.
"How you gonna hate on a web series when you're doing a Mixtape tho," she wrote. "I wonder what label Bambi is signed to? Never Coming Out Record…No Talent Music Group, Girl, bye!"
It didn't stop there. When Draya chimed in on Laura's covert conversation with Jackie Christie's daughter, Laura reminded Twitter followers about past allegations that Draya once left her son alone in their apartment unsupervised and hungry.
"Draya should be the last one to speak on anyone's kids…didn't you abandoned your son? #BBWLA," she tweeted.
However, what really shocked fans was Laura's claim that there was a physical altercation between her and Draya that VH1 didn't air!
"U didn't say that when I whooped that a$$ tho. #ReleaseThatFootagee #BBWLA," she wrote.
Laura's claims haven't been confirmed, but considering that a tussle between Brooke Bailey and Jackie was cut from an episode, viewers aren't just dismissing the tweet as rumor.
It's not clear at what point Draya and Laura might have fought. Draya seemed to be more focused on Jackie and Brooke during season 2. Laura's main beef was with Bambi. However, Draya and Bambi appear to have quite a connection, and no one really approved of Laura's vendetta against Jackie.
No matter the cause of the tension, Laura said she had the last word when she supposedly knocked Draya out.
"She was sleep like Paciquiao. #ReleaseThatFootage," she wrote.
Laura, who insisted that her Twitter tough talk was primarily for entertainment purposes, ended her rant with a simple sign off by saying, "Ok. I'm done. Thanks for the laughs."

Mezo`s DR650 rebuild

Hi Mezo
Really sorry to hear about your recent experiences. I've watched your DR build from afar and when I decided to swap my F650 for a DR back in October you offered sound info.
Its funny how it sometimes takes something really bad to happen before something really good happens.
I'd talked about doing a big trip for 15 years but was always 'doing something else'. In 2003 both my parents died of cancer 5 months apart aged 65 & 69 - neither smoke or drank.
It was the kick up the arse I needed and after finishing renovating my house, planning, preparing and saving for a RTW trip I finaly rode away from England in March 2006. Next month will see my 4th year on the road and what an experience it continues to be.
The Aussie people make Oz a particularly special place to ride and I'm sure plenty of offers like that from DRJoe will come flooding in.
Forget about this being the end and think about it being the beginning. Keep your sense of humour (it appeals to me), get on your bike and open your mind to the next opportunity that will surely come your way.
I wish you the very best

The village of Dolgeville will take measures to impede the use of the bicycle and pedestrian trail that runs between Main and Spencer streets by all-terrain vehicles.
The board of trustees made the decision to install Jersey barriers and signage at the trail's entry and exit points after listening to comments made by Spencer Street resident George DeLuco Monday night. April's vandalism to the wooden gates that blocked the trail also played into their decision.
In his comments DeLuco called the trail that is roughly 370 feet from his home a "motorized race track" and said the traffic has become "annoying to homeowners who reside along the path."
"The village has little ability to monitor or police the pathway," he said as he called the recreational trail "unsafe" for pedestrian use due to the increased motorized ATV and dirt bike traffic.
DeLuco also cited the loud noise that comes from the "revving engines" along the trail as an annoyance, as well as the increased water flow onto his property after a weather event.
Trustee Donna Loucks said she was unaware signage describing the recreational trail's intended uses had not been installed at the pathway's three entrance and exit points.
"At the very least signage needs to be installed to inform people the trail is intended for bicycle and pedestrian use only," she said. "The trail is not to be used by motorized vehicles in the fall, spring and summer. Only snowmobiles can use the trail in the winter. That was the understanding."
Trustee Larry Brandow said the Jersey barriers will be installed in a manner to prevent ATV access.
"They are very difficult to move once they are put in place, so they should cut down on the ATV traffic if they are installed in way that only people or bicycles can pass by them. I won't say the barriers will eliminate the problem completely, but they should make a difference," he said.
The village last year received $11,950 from Herkimer County HealthNet to develop a section of the long-planned Salisbury-Dolgeville Greenway. The bicycle and pedestrian trail travels along a section of the former railroad bed that runs from Main to Spencer streets, and was created to encourage people to be active and to give residents a secure place to walk, jog or ride their bicycle.
The funds for the project came from a New York State Department of Health Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work and Play grant, an initiative that focuses on the prevention of obesity and Type 2 diabetes through projects and messages that aim to increase good nutrition and physical activity.
To prevent ATVs and dirt bikes from accessing the greenway, wooden gates, similar to those found at the start of the recreational trail near the Herkimer Home State Historic Site in the town of Danube, were installed at the trail's entrance and exit point at Main and Spencer streets.
Page 2 of 2 - The gates were damaged beyond repair last month by individuals riding ATVs.
While Mayor Bruce Lyon said Monday night no arrests have been made thus far, Dolgeville Police Chief Richard Congdon said his department is in the process of following a number of leads.
"We have received information about the incident and we are working to identify and arrest or ticket the individuals who were involved," said Congdon. "This is an active investigation."
Anyone with information regarding the April 21 incident is asked to call the police at 429-9409.

Health officials have confirmed that a man over the age of 60 in south central Idaho has died from the H1N1 flu virus. It's believed that his death is Idaho's first flu related death of the season. So far, health officials in Bingham County say that the flu hasn't hit the area too hard, but "it's still early in the season."
Last year there were 35 flu-related deaths in Idaho.

Restaurants in Tokyo
Innovation is the trump card of restaurants in Tokyo. All kinds of sea creatures, from sea urchin and crab to eel and stingray, are apt to wind up on your plate. Noodles, from ramen to soba and more, abound.
One of the best restaurants in Tokyo is Nodaiwa. Not far from Edogawa Park, this shop serves some of the best unagi (eel) dishes—so good in fact, that the line often stretches well past the door. If you want to try your hand at Japanese cooking, visit the Tsukiji Fish Market, known as Japan's Kitchen. It's the world's largest seafood market and moves at lightning speed. If you're dedicated, you can wake early to watch the tuna auction get underway at four o'clock in the morning.
For a break from the typical Tokyo restaurant, consider Union Square Tokyo and Pierre Gagnaire à Tokyo. Union Square Tokyo puts a Western spin on traditional dishes in the Tokyo midtown area. Meanwhile, French chef Pierre Gagnaire runs his namesake restaurant on the 36th floor of the Intercontinental Hotel.
On a single street in Tsukishima (a manmade island in the city), there are approximately 50 restaurants serving monja, a kind of pancake (some say omlette) made from a batter poured atop meat or seafood, onions, and cabbage, cooked on a teppan griddle. Monja Hazama, distinguishe
Located on the edge of Aoyama National Cemetary, Kaotan Ramen has a notably shabby exterior and simple interior: a long, worn wooden table and benches across from an enclosed kitchen with an order window.
The restaurant is obscured behind a dramatic façade of weathered steel and glass. Regulars love this spot not just for the gently priced omakase menu of delicious dishes—just $50 per person—but also for his rapport with the amiable owner, Kuniatsu Kondo.
Japan's traditional meal-ending confections, collectively known as wagashi, still have a passionate fan base. Often made with red-bean paste, sugar, and mochi (glutinous rice cakes), the treats were once a favored gift exchanged by samurai.
