The Complex Fate of the Jewish-American Writer
Bellow and Malamud had Jewishness in their bones, but
what they actually knew about Judaism could have been written on a
single page. They knew the ghetto neighborhoods, the character types,
the speech patterns and what they took in at the kitchen table. They
were born into Yiddish-speaking homes. Their Judaism was instinctive,
domestic, introspective. But their determination to navigate the
literary mainstream prevented them from getting too caught up with
specifically Jewish subjects. They refused to be consigned to any
literary ghetto. "I conceived of myself as a cosmopolitan man
enjoying his freedom," said Malamud. Ozick, on the other hand, like
I.B. Singer or Steve Stern, was fascinated by the whole magical side
of Judaism--the popular lore and legend, the dybbuks and golems of
Jewish mystical tradition. For Singer this was part of his experience
of growing up in Poland, the curious son of a learned rabbi,
entranced by hidden and forbidden byways of the Jewish tradition. For
Ozick and Stern it sometimes becomes a bookish, vicarious Judaism
based on reading and research. But this very bookishness--a certain
remoteness from life--becomes a key theme in their
Until recently a fear haunted Jewish-American
writing: that the subject was exhausted, that we live in inferior
times, that giants once walked the earth and said everything that
needed to be said; the rest is commentary. From her first important
story, "Envy, or Yiddish in America," in 1969, to her keynote
"Usurpation: Other People's Stories" in the mid 1970s, to The
Messiah of Stockholm and The Puttermesser Papers, Ozick
repeatedly writes stories about writers, or stories about other
people's stories. This is a latecomer's literature, almost a textbook
example of the postmodern profusion of texts upon texts, or of Harold
Bloom's famous theory of the anxiety of influence, which emphasizes
the Oedipal tensions between writers and their precursors. We risk
becoming footnotes to our forebears.
Like The Ghost
Writer, Ozick's "Envy"--the very title is revealing--is most
memorable for its portraits of two older writers, one a lethal
caricature of I.B. Singer--widely translated, fabulously successful,
yet cruel, egotistical and rejected by most other Yiddish
writers--the other loosely based on the great poet Jacob Glatstein,
celebrated among fellow Yiddishists yet never properly translated
into English. (Ozick herself later did some translations of his
work.) But the key figure is a young woman, perhaps based on Ozick
herself, whom the poet seizes upon as his lifeline into English, the
potential savior of all of Yiddish culture.
This poet is
envious of the Singer character but even more contemptuous of
American Jewish writers for their ignorance: "Jewish novelists!
Savages!" he says bitterly. "Their Yiddish! One word here, one word
there. Shikseh on one page, putz on the other, and that's the whole
vocabulary." Like Roth's novella, this is a kind of ghost story; the
characters embody a dead culture trying to come alive. But it's also
a vampire tale, since the young woman eventually rejects them as
bloodsuckers trying to live at her expense. Fascinated by the high
drama of an expiring Yiddish culture, she decides she cannot allow it
to take over her own life. Cynthia Ozick is thought of as some kind
of pious traditionalist, but this, her best story, written with
ferocious energy and style, is a work that radiates hostility from
first to last, reminding the reader of the sharp polemical turns she
often takes in her essays.
In Ozick's story "Usurpation,"
the spirit of envy takes over the protagonist herself. It begins with
a young author at the 92nd Street Y listening to a reading by a
famous older writer. After two or three sentences, her ears begin to
burn, for she feels he's telling a story that truly belongs to her,
that she was born to write. As it happens, the writer and the story
can easily be identified, since Ozick retells it. It's "The Silver
Crown," Malamud's story about a wonder rabbi, which is precisely
about the conflict of generations that is virtually the signature of
this third, or latecomer's, generation. It's also a story of the kind
of Jewish mystery and magic so dear to Ozick that she feels a sting
of regret at not having written it herself. Malamud had been there
first, but Ozick, like Steve Stern, makes her literary belatedness
the theme of her story.
It's no accident that Ozick's
stories overlap with her eloquent literary essays, or that
metafiction and postmodernism here make a surprising entry into
Jewish writing. Postmodernism, as I understand it, conveys the sense
that all texts are provisional, that we live in a world already
crowded with familiar texts and images, that originality is a
Romantic illusion and techniques like collage, pastiche and
pseudocommentary are better than realism for conveying our sense of
belatedness and repletion. At the heart of Ozick's fine story
"Puttermesser Paired" (in The Puttermesser Papers) are some
brilliantly told episodes from the life of George Eliot, which the
heroine partly re-enacts, just as Ozick weaves a lost novel by the
murdered Polish writer Bruno Schulz into The Messiah of
Stockholm. As in the work of Jorge Luis Borges, this is writing
about writing, perched on the fine line between commentary and
It's rare that literary history so closely
mirrors social history, but the conflict of literary generations I've
described here is part of a larger pattern. It's no news that America
has experienced a revival of ethnicity, or that the world has been
rocked by waves of resurgent nationalism. With their longstanding
commitment to the universalism of the Enlightenment, to which they
owed their emancipation, Jews have been ambivalent about
participating in this process. Jewish life in America has become far
more assimilated, but younger Jewish writers have both taken
advantage of this and sharply criticized it. They have turned to
Israel, to feminism, to the Holocaust, to earlier Jewish history and
to their own varied spiritual itineraries, ranging from neo-Orthodoxy
and mysticism to Eastern religion, as a way of redefining their
relation to both Jewish tradition and contemporary culture. If they
have lost the old connection to Europe, to Yiddish or to immigrant
life, they have begun to substitute their own distinctive Jewish and
American experiences. They are not simply living on the inherited
capital of past literary generations. The new writing so far may lack
the power of a Malamud, a Bellow or a Grace Paley, but it is
certainly not enervated by the bland, assimilated aspects of Jewish
life. Jewish writers have quarreled with one another and with
themselves, but these have been family quarrels, not holy wars.
Whatever tension this creates, it certainly gives no sign that they
are about to give up the ghost, especially now that the ghost, the
past, has taken on new flesh and blood.

It's official. Prison Break is coming to an end.
"Prison Break had a hell of a run, but the run has ended," Fox president Kevin Reilly just told reporters at the TV Critics Press Tour. "This will be the last year of the show."
The news was somewhat expected, given the four-year-old series' downturn in the ratings this season. However, according to Reilly, the decision was made from a creative standpoint. "The show has just played out. You get to a point creatively where you feel all the stories have been told, and you want to end strong and not gimp out in the end of the season."
So exactly how many more episodes will we get? And what about a movie?
"We've got our remaining batch of six episodes, and there are a couple more they're contemplating."
Rumor had it a few weeks ago that Prison Break's additional hours could possibly be presented as a TV movie, as Fox did with 24 earlier in the season with 24: Redemption. However, Reilly tells me today that there will be no movie. "The finale will be two hours," he says.
I asked Reilly if producers have a specific game plan for the end, and he replied: "They have a really cool ending, actually. I know where they end, and it's a hell of an idea."
Meanwhile, good news for Fringe fans: Reilly said he has no plans to pull the plug. "It's a keeper," Reilly told reporters. "I don't think there was a tougher time period than Tuesdays at 9 p.m. Even though Fringe had a lead-in, they had to perform every week—and they did. If you follow the show week to week, you won't be disappointed."
Are you sad to see Prison Break go, or is Fox making the right call? Also, can any of you fans offer a shoulder for shirtless Wentworth to cry on? Thought so...

Discussion on the proposed Broadway Boulevard yard parking ordinance finally made its way to the Sedalia City Council during a work session Monday, but it doesn't seem a decision will be made any time soon.
After more than an hour of discussion, the councilmembers present decided to postpone bringing the ordinance to the next council meeting for a vote until after further discussion. It was decided to allow the Citizens for a Clean Sedalia Committee to discuss ideas and problems council brought up during its July 24 meeting, and then council will discuss the ordinance again Aug. 4.
Councilmember Larry Stevenson was absent from the meeting, and Ward 2 was only represented by Bonita Nash after Becca La Strada's resignation last week. Council was joined by a small audience, which included several members of the Citizens for a Clean Sedalia Committee, and several residents voiced their opinions on the issue.
It was quickly brought up that there is an ordinance in effect prohibiting parking on grass at a residence, but those in favor of the ordinance reminded the council the ordinance is meant to be proactive rather than reactive years down the road.
"As far as clear violators there are two, however a few years ago there were zero, and that number is increasing," said City Administrator Gary Edwards.
"I think the Clean Sedalia Committee was looking at this as a way to prevent further deterioration, visual plight of the area," said Community Development Director John Simmons.
Councilmember Don Meier was the first at the meeting to bring up the idea of preventing the problem city-wide, which committee members and Edwards have discussed previously. Edwards said there are two main reasons that idea isn't happening: enforcement and visibility.
"There are a couple problems with that," Edwards said. "Enforcing that city-wide is going to be difficult. Another issue is other parts of Sedalia aren't as visible to the people who are going through Sedalia who are making decisions about if they should set up businesses here or not, for example. Their impression will be what they see on East and West Broadway. So it's less important for this to go city-wide as it is to emphasize what most people see, and that is East and West Broadway."
For Mayor Steve Galliher, his concern was how yard parking affects the homes around the "violators" and the property value in Sedalia, which in turn affects the city's credit rating.
"There are several homes on Broadway that are for sale and if you took each one of those and let them park in their yard it's going to deteriorate fast," he said. "We're also hurting the value of homes, and I know of someone who is selling their home (on Broadway) that's having trouble."
Another issue brought up by Meier was that he had concerns about targeting certain areas in Sedalia.
"When we start picking out streets in certain geographical areas, wouldn't that be discrimination?" Meier said.
"We've discussed that issue with legal and that specific question was asked in the beginning of this," Edwards said. "Can we address an area that's in violation? The answer is yes we can if it is an area that has the distinction of having a public impact on the community, such as the image of the city."
The final major issue discussed was how to grandfather in homes that currently have extended their driveways due to limited parking for multiple cars. Suggestions included not grandfathering anyone, grandfathering in one home, enforcing the ordinance only for anything that happens after it is passed, including language that specifies how driveways must be maintained, and offering a special permit for those who have more cars than will fit on their driveway and they would follow specifications to extend their driveway in an aesthetically pleasing way.
In an unofficial vote to decide how to proceed, Nash, Bob Cross, Tollie Rowe and Jo Lynn Turley voted to table the proposal until Clean Sedalia and council discussed it further. Meier and Jim Cunningham voted to table the proposal completely and to not revisit the issue.
The current draft of the proposed ordinance will affect homes on East and West Broadway Boulevard between South Merriam and South Warren avenues. No portion of a vehicle can be parked on dirt, grass or gravel that is not part of an "improved" driveway. Existing driveways, paved or unpaved, that don't exceed 12 feet in width, will be allowed, but any driveways built in the future must be paved. If approved by council, the ordinance will carry a three-tiered fine system for any violators: first violation $100; second violation $200; third and subsequent violations $500.

Bankia? No Thankia.
Political hacks capture Spanish finance.
Jun 11, 2012, Vol. 17, No. 37 • By CHRISTOPHER CALDWELL
Believe it or not, the directors of the European Union have a solution to the Spanish banking crisis. It involves handing over to the directors of the European Union the authority to run the Spanish banking system. Last week, José Manuel Durão Barroso, the (Portuguese) president of the European Commission, called for a "banking union" with a bailout fund. Mario Draghi, the (Italian) head of the European Central Bank, backed Europe-wide banking oversight. Both of them seemed to be talking about establishing a Brussels-based equivalent of the FDIC—which would involve giving European bureaucrats more access to all Europe's national treasuries—but they left the details vague.
The vaguer the better. Since the bank-and-government-debt crisis began in Greece two years ago, Europe has set up a number of structures to provide liquidity to troubled banks: First there was the European Financial Stability Facility. Now there is the planned European Stability Mechanism. It's one-for-all-and-all-for-one. Should a country get into trouble, the rest of Europe will back it up.
Unfortunately, most bailout plans envisioned Spain among the bailers, not the bailees. It is becoming apparent that the list of countries that will not under any circumstances need a bailout has fallen to just a handful: Germany, Finland, Austria, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. For Brussels, the debts of Europe's mismanaged countries must now be "integrated." This is a euphemistic way of saying that Europe's well-managed countries must pay them.

There is also a rise in new built properties in London's prime areas. Almost 125 new housing development schemes are currently at various stages of planning, site acquisition, construction, etc. Amounting to nearly 70 % increase as compared to last year's statistics, these numbers pumped up due to real estate developers and property owners planning more new builds and schemes keeping in mind the increasing foreign buyers. Lately, more and more foreign investors seem to be interested in prime central London residential properties. Reports show that there are few selective areas where majority of the new developments are concentrated pertaining to their popularity and upmarket lifestyles. Chelsea & Fulham would comprise 25% of the pipeline units followed by developments on the South Bank with 17%, City and Fringe 12%, Midtown 11% and highly chic and fashionable area Kensington at 10%.

We recently looked at a Morgan Out Island 41 and liked the forward berth bunks and the aft cabin design but 41 ft is a lot a boat and the price was not right. For others who have cruised with two small children, what size boat have you sailed?
We coastal cruised with our daugther and son from babies to adults. Our first boat, 28', was plenty for two adults and two small bodies. Mostly weekends but also a winter in the Bahamas.
When they reached 10 to 12, things started to get smaller. Berths, galley, dinghy, cockpit, head, lockers. We still did it in the smaller boat, but when an old 38'er found us, there was a collective sigh of pleasure from all of us.
The best part of the bigger boat was that it has two pilot berths. A 1961 design, our Alden Challenger is tiny by today's boats standards. But I can't for the life of me think of a worse arrangement for two siblings than an aft cabin. Our two got along so well together, but kids are kids. Two kids in an aft cabin would be like putting your dog and cat back there.
At 3 and 4 years old, many arrangements will work well. You don't need a big boat. Think of each having their own space to sleep and a small area to stow their stuff in a way that leaves the boat open for you to use when their sleeping(napping during daylight).
Think of a cockpit big enough for all of you underway and at anchor(you'll spend most of your time there).
You can find these spaces on smaller boats, but many are not designed with kids in mind.
Good luck, best thing we ever did was sail with our kids for 2 decades.

Jim Cappuccino, a 49-year-old sleep apnea patient living in the Baltimore suburbs who was part of Punjabi's study, agreed.
Cappuccino, the owner of a surgical equipment and medical device sales company, knew he had high blood pressure, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes before enrolling in the study.
Although he can trace the onset of sleep apnea difficulties, such as disruptive snoring and breathing pauses, back to his mid-30's, it was only when he enrolled in the study that he was finally diagnosed with sleep apnea, he said.
"When you're in that career mode, and you're on the go-go-go, you put your health issues on the back burner," he said. "But as I got older, I realized that this is probably something that I should have addressed years ago. I was shocked by the correlation between sleep apnea and heart disease and diabetes, and actually even death, but getting tested and diagnosed and treated has made all the difference. It's actually allowed me to wake up not feeling tired, which hasn't been the norm for me for a few years."
"So the only thing I can say," Cappucino added, "is people who feel that they are having trouble should get tested, because sleep apnea is going to deteriorate your system and lead to many other health problems."
Similar findings that linked severe sleep apnea with a greater risk of dying were reported last year in studies out of Australia and the University of Wisconsin.

Nissan takes the wraps off Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo
By David Szondy
June 16, 2014
"Cor, I'd like to take that for a spin." It's what most of us think when looking at concept cars, but the chances of that ever happening are usually less than slim. The Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo is an exception to the rule – at least, it's a virtual exception. That's because next month, the just revealed supercar concept becomes available for download for Polyphony Digital's Gran Turismo 6 video game for the Playstation console.
For those of us of a certain age, concept cars are things that are rolled out at car shows with great fanfare, grace the pages of glossy magazines like the petrolhead's equivalent of a pin-up, or get leaked on the internet to the consternation of the car maker's marketing department. These days, thanks to improved graphics and more sophisticated algorithms, video games have been added to the list of venues where designer fantasies get an airing before (perhaps) becoming realities.
Nissan isn't the first car company to go this route, but that doesn;t mean the company isn't taking the unveiling of the Concept 2020 Vision GT seriously. The avatar vehicle was created by Nissan Design Europe in London, in close cooperation with the makers of the video game, as well as an advanced engineering team at Nissan Technical Centre in Japan. According to Nissan, the designers were let off the leash to create their idea of the Nissan supercar of the future.
The result is a car with lines so aggressive they look they're bullying the pixels. There are definite echoes of the Nissan GT-R, but there's also a heavy dollop of American muscle cars of the 1970s, and it's all wrapped up in bodywork that's very heavy on the aerodynamics. The front is dominated by massive air scoops feeding into lines that flow straight to a spoiler that speaks of a lot of downforce. Overall, it's a design that hints of a lot of power and some interesting track days.
How all of this will translates into real-world performance remains to be seen, but Nissan says that Gran Turismo 6 players will at least be able to put the Concept 2020 Vision GT through its digital paces on a virtual track.
The video below gives a glimpse of the Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo in virtual action.

I saw the Polyphony Digital logo at the start of the vid and my first thought was "cool, I can actually get digital version of one". I'll never own a supercar and concepts usually get neutered before going production but at least I can own them vicariously through video games.
I think it would be cool if Nissan actually produced one as a supercar but that doesn't seem likely.Daishi
I think that is really nice.
Perhaps it could be either Batmans or James Bond new ride. It looks very stealthy.BigGoofyGuy
I think they took "edgy" a little too literally...Jay_Wilson
reminds of Viper super car from TV show Viper in 90s. Love the GTR 4 body style, Id drive this, awesomeStephen Russell
Not bad, but will never reach the street in that bodywork as the chauffeur-driven "pedestrian health and accident" Nazis in the insurance companies would have a total spasm. If the present safety and injury prevention thrust continues future cars will look like a computer controlled, soft foam-wrapped (and foam-lined) tennis ball with little wheels under, with the added fun of little cameras and flat screen TVs for windows. Don't laugh! Look at what Google is proposing for roads everywhere!The Skud

Question: What do I do if my wallet is lost or stolen?
Precautions with personal information
The best way to minimize the risks and hassles of a lost or stolen wallet is to limit and be very careful about what you carry in it. Here's what privacy experts recommend:
Simplify. Carry a driver's license and one credit card that doesn't require a PIN.
Record the contents of your wallet. Photocopy both sides of all credit cards and keep the copy in a safe place at home. Also, photocopy your driver's license.
Carry your credit and debit cards in a separate card holder.
Never carry anything in your wallet with a PIN written on it.
Make sure your personal checks are separate from your wallet.
Never carry your Social Security card or anything with your Social Security number on it in your wallet.
With your number, a thief can take on your identity, opening credit and amassing huge debt in your name.
For older adults with Medicare I.D. cards, this can be a problem since the cards have Social Security numbers printed on them. The Privacy Rights Clearinghouse recommends making a photocopy of the card and obliterating the last four digits of the Social Security number. Then, leave the card in a secure place at home and carry only the photocopy with you.
Don't carry family members' personal or financial data in your wallet. In the wrong hands, that information can make them victims, too.
Your wallet is like a lot of things in life – you never really think about it or appreciate it until it's gone. But unlike a necklace, favorite pen or other replaceable items that go missing, when your wallet is lost or stolen, you run the risk of not only losing your money, but also your personal identity.
"Most people carry far too much in their wallet, and the more you carry, the more (a thief) will know about you and the more trouble you will have to go through to remedy those possible difficulties," says Paul Stephens, director of policy and advocacy at the San Diego-based Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, a nonprofit consumer advocacy group.
Since your wallet can be a gold mine of personal and financial information, it's important to take immediate action to make sure you aren't further victimized. Law enforcement and privacy experts urge you to take the following steps as soon as you discover the loss.
File a police report and keep a copy.
"Make a police report so the investigation can get started and you can prevent additional loss to your accounts," says Sgt. Mark Varnau, in charge of financial crimes and elder abuse at the San Diego County Sheriff's Office. "A report shows that you acted responsibly and didn't wait several days to report it. Even if you're not sure if your wallet is lost or stolen, it's safer to make a report than to just wait and hope it will be found."
Call a neighbor or friend to keep an eye on your house until you can get there.

I mentioned in a post yesterday that I have a new company to share with you that hasn't been featured online yet so it's time for a little show 'n tell. This was sent over by my dear blogger friend Irene Hoofs from Bloesem. Are you ready to see something shiny and new? Meet Nala Design, a new stationery and home decor line from Malaysia founded by Irene's friend Lisette Scheers.
Her patterns are inspired by Malaysia's melting pot of Chinese, Malay and Indian culture. Nala means successful in Swahili and is also the name of Lisette's daughter. Lisette first started her company as a way to revive the forgotten art of letter writing and, "Began modestly with a collection of stationery based on Straits Chinese motifs." She decided to branch out to include homewares (mostly pillows at this point) and this is her debut in the blogosphere so I hope that you'll welcome her with open, supportive arms. I imagine she is reading this thinking, "Wow, there are my products on some blog called decor8!". When I'm blogging I always wonder what the people on the other side of the screen are thinking – especially those whom I'm writing about, ha ha!
Irene styled the photo shoot in her home showing the collection and she did a beautiful job showcasing these colorful, happy products. Irene's beautiful styling work looks great – good job, Mrs. Hoofs! As a side note, I saw Irene's home recently in a big magazine, I cannot recall which one, and I nearly died of shock. Irene lives like a celebrity, her home is gorgeous, really! I had major home envy after seeing that feature.
If you like what you see, you can purchase from her web shop and she will ship anywhere in the world.

Hello, hello! I'm back from my holiday break but oh no! Please forgive me! I'm not feeling very motivated to get back to work though I've heard I'm not alone… You too? Hopefully with this first post I'll be feelin' my flow again. I need to get back into the game!
It's like anything… Mind over body. I want to feel the groove but my body is a bit like "bleh". So first thing I did on Monday morning was to make small but positive changes. I decided to drink more green tea and water, eat mostly salads and go on daily walks (Currently I'm doing 3.1 miles/5km). It's time to get that energy back, focus and start planning ahead because this is going to be a very big year since I'm going on another book tour in May to North America hitting more cities this time and extending certain parts of my journey to teach a workshop, visit family and work on my next book when I'm out on the west coast. Must. Reboot. Mojo.
So! Did you have a nice holiday? What did you do? I didn't really DO anything but that was sort of the point. It was healing to go into a fox hole and hideaway for three weeks. It allowed me time to think which sounds silly but stopping to really THINK isn't something we find ourselves doing often, is it? I believe that is why topics like Slow Living and Mindfulness have become more and more a part of daily conversations happening around the world. We need to be asking ourselves questions like, "Do I want to be doing what I'm doing today by this time next year?" and "What changes do I need to make in my life now?" along with "Am I really happy and if not, what do I need to change to get more HAPPINESS into my life". Oh yeah and of course the most important thing to ask is, "Ryan Gosling?".
Okay maybe that one isn't a question but it most certainly is always the answer (smile). I saw Drive over the holidays and though it's one of those revenge action flicks (not really my thing), Ryan was so charming and authentic in his performance that I finally GOT why so many women are lured in. It's not just the abs, really. If you've seen Drive, you will immediately know what I mean – the boy can act. You know what really struck me though about Mr. Gosling in that film? He comes across like the real deal and aren't we all so much more attracted to people who are authentic? I think sincerity really goes the distance.
You don't have to be perfect to succeed but wow, being genuine can make or break so many of us. In a funny way, watching Drive really highlighted that fact to me because his character was flawed but real and it made me think that all of us are flawed but often that's what attracts us to one another so much. Flaws, imperfection, not being 100%. It's relatable and we want relatable don't we? It's often that slowing down that we do mentally around the holidays that allows us room to think and for me, I have been thinking so much about the importance of being sincere, standing up for what we believe in, owning up to every piece of ourselves (even the flawed bits) and embracing imperfection, individuality and love for self.
I digress…
I'd like to welcome you back to a new year of decor8 and wish you all a very happy new year. I'll be back in a moment with a post showing products photographed in the home of one of my favorite bloggers featuring newly designed products not shared yet online – in fact the photo above is a glimpse of what is to come.

I was so excited when Alphabet Bags in the UK agreed to be an official sponsor of the goody bags that we filled for the BYW blogging workshop this past weekend. It was such a pleasure and honor to work with them and very, very easy! Most importantly, our students LOVED their loot!
Alphabet Bags donated 17 heart totes (either a gold or pink neon heart, 14,41€ ) and a canvas pouch (21,61€ ) for each student to go inside with a zipper in either the Diamond, Rules Are For Fools, Live Right Now and Ta-Da design.
Our students were so excited (you will see this later in a video I'm going to post from class) and I felt so happy to display them on the chairs so that when everyone walked in on Saturday morning, they had a beautiful bag to greet them.
If you are organizing an event and want to make an impact, Alphabet Bags would be perfect. In fact, they are perfect for any occasion and because they have so many styles and designs, you can pick and choose for the perfect look!
I embellished each bag with an animal brooch and ribbons by our other sponsors, Rice and House Doctor. I thought they looked so sweet on their own but since I like to personalize nearly everything that I buy to give it a Holly touch, I decided to have a little fun. If you have a tote and want to personalize it a bit, tie a scarf around the handle or add a brooch, or perhaps buttons or maybe even ribbons. It's always nice to add a little piece of you to the accessories that you wear.
I want to thank Alphabet Bags for being one of our biggest sponsors for this event, it meant so much for us to share your products with our students!

Corpus Christi ISD takes steps to better inform the public
CORPUS CHRISTI - The Corpus Christi Independent School District staff quietly took the initiative recently to make important information easier for the public to find. That information, the conflict-of-interest statements filed by trustees, already was available online but was buried deep enough on the website that board President John Longoria said he needed assistance to find it.
Trustees Tony Diaz and Lucy Rubio complained at two recent board meetings about the difficulty of finding the disclosures. It was a legitimate complaint and the staff's response was a welcome solution. Now, calling up the disclosures on the district's website is as easy as finding editorials on caller.com (put the cursor on the Opinions tab, then click on Editorials).
The disclosures previously were filed under the purchasing office area of the website. Now they're under the Board of Trustees tab, which is the second heading from the left near the top of the site (www.ccisd.us). Just put the cursor on "Board of Trustees" and a menu will appear. The last item is "Conflict of interest disclosures." Click on it to find trustees' disclosures.
There are four — one each filed by Longoria and Trustee Bill Clark and two by Trustee Carol Scott.
A conflict-of-interest disclosure is, by definition, the opposite of hiding something. At the Oct. 10 board meeting, Diaz singled out Scott with comments that she needed to be transparent and do the right thing. Before the board voted on a land acquisition, Diaz pointed out that Scott's husband works for the title company involved in the transaction. According to Scott's official conflict-of-interest disclosure of the widely known fact that her husband, Mark, a city councilman, works for San Jacinto Title Co., she first filed it in 2006 and updated it in April. She abstained from the 5-0 vote on the land acquisition.
Accusations of conflicts of interest are legitimate when the conflicts are concealed. Scott has disclosed hers. Yet Diaz told her she needs to be transparent, which amounts to telling her that she hasn't been.
Trustees are not required to disclose the dollar amount of their financial interests. Diaz would change that if he could. In this case, the relevant disclosure would be Mark Scott's salary, or any commission or fees he would receive from the land transaction — or whatever amount from those two sources he shares with his wife. Carol Scott's other conflict-of-interest disclosure is of a client relationship between her company and the construction company AG/CM.
As much as we'd like to know and share those details, we acknowledge the arguments against disclosure of a private-sector salary or commission or fee. Disclosure of what the title company pays Mark Scott could affect competition among local title companies — in addition to it not being any of his friends' and neighbors' business. The other companies might learn that they are paying too much or not enough. San Jacinto would not receive reciprocal information about its competitors — unless they have employees in elected positions that require them to file disclosures. Likewise, disclosure of the fees charged by Carol Scott's company, Kailo Communications, could affect competition in her field. Other companies would know how much to undercut her, or to quit overcharging their customers.
The financial disclosures that Diaz would like to require, would discourage anyone with any financial interest in anything from running for office. The result would be somewhat less-than-representative government.

History & Development of Tobacco Free Policy
A Message from Chancellor Goldstein
As part of CUNY's ongoing commitment to improving public health, including the health of its students and employees, I have established a CUNY Tobacco Policy Advisory Committee to review the University's current smoking policy and consider expanding it. The committee, comprising representatives from across the University, has diligently reviewed policy-related issues and is considering several proposals.
An Open Letter on CUNY Tobacco Policy to the University Community
At the request of Chancellor Matthew Goldstein, Executive Vice Chancellor and University Provost Alexandra W. Logue has convened a Tobacco Policy Advisory Committee for The City University of New York. In accordance with a Board of Trustees Resolution effective January 1, 1995, CUNY currently prohibits smoking inside all facilities, including vehicles operated by the University. The Committee was charged with considering if—and how—this policy might be expanded to better protect the health of CUNY students, faculty, and staff. more <pdf>

Catholic Police Guild
The Catholic Police Guild (CPG) of England & Wales was founded in 1914 as the Metropolitan and City Catholic Police Guild. This was an association for Catholic Police men and women, and approved by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Westminster, in response to representations made by Catholics serving in the Metropolitan and City of London Police Forces.
In 1974 the Guild became a national association with membership open to Police Officers serving in the Police Forces in the rest of England and Wales. More recently membership has been opened up to Police Staff & Police Community Support Officers. The CPG also has a Friends category of membership for other civilian supporters. The Guild has had a significant resurgence over the last couple of years. It is particularly experiencing growth in the North-West of England.[1]
Objectives of the Guild[edit]
- To provide a fraternal organisation through which members may be encouraged and obtain a better understanding of their Catholic Faith and its relevance to the Police service vocation.
- To help members to apply Christian principles in the performance of their duties by helping others, resisting temptations to injustice and disloyalty, demonstrating qualities of integrity, sincerity and truthfulness and performing other charitable good works.
- All Members are expected to participate fully in the Guild's charitable activities and spiritual and social events.[2]
Guild Prayer[edit]
Most merciful God, giver of all authority, by the merits of Thy Divine Son and through the intercession of His Holy Mother and our glorious patron St. Michael, grant that we may this day, and every day, overcome all temptations, especially to injustice and disloyalty, and with our minds inflamed by Thy Holy Spirit perform all our duties in such a manner as may be pleasing to Thy Divine Will, so that when called to report for the last time we may not be found wanting, and may be allowed to remain forever in Thy Presence. Through Jesus Christ our Lord, AMEN
Guild Patron[edit]
The Patron Saint of the Catholic Police Guild is Saint Michael, the Archangel. His feast day is 29 September.
The name Michael signifies "Who is like to God?" and was the warcry of the good angels in the battle fought in heaven against satan and his followers.
Holy Scripture describes St Michael as "one of the chief princes," and leader of the forces of Heaven in their triumph over the powers of Hell.
He has been especially honored and invoked as patron and protector by the Church from the time of the Apostles.
Although he is always called "the Archangel," the Greek Fathers and many others place him over all the angels – as Prince of the Seraphim.
St Michael is the patron of police, paratroopers, grocers, mariners and sickness.
The CPG has a Constitution and Rules approved by the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales.
The CPG holds an Annual General Meeting that is open to all members of the Guild. The election of members to the National Executive Committee (NEC) takes place at this meeting.
The NEC is entrusted by members to run the Guild. The NEC meets throughout the year. The NEC will invite a Guild member to act as Chairman.
A member or person associated with the Police Service may also be invited by the NEC to act as President for a term of three years, which can be renewed. The CPG NEC has not appointed a President for many years. Previously this role was held by a senior Catholic cleric, often the Administrator of Westminster Cathedral.[2]
However, in June 2010 the NEC decided to appoint a president once again. They chose Patrick J Somerville QPM, a previous Chairman of the CPG on two occasions. He is the first Catholic layman to be appointed to this position in the history of the guild.[3]
Annual Events[edit]
- Requiem Mass for deceased Police Officers and Staff, held at Westminster Cathedral
- Retreat
- Mass to mark the foundation of the Guild on the Feast of Corpus Christi 1914 (usually the Thursday before, as this Feast is now celebrated in England & Wales on a Sunday)
- Mass to mark the Feast of St Michael the Archangel (29 September), the Patron Saint of the Guild[4]
A strong charism of the Catholic Police Guild is stewarding.
Catholic Police Guild members have a strong association with Westminster Cathedral. Members often help with stewarding duties throughout the year.
Every October Guild members carry the statue of Our Lady in procession from Westminster Cathedral to Brompton Oratory on behalf of the Rosary Crusade of Reparation.[5]
Papal visits to Britain[edit]
Both in 1982 with the visit of Pope John Paul II and in 2010 with the visit of Pope Benedict XVI, the Catholic Police Guild assisted with stewarding.
In 1982 the lead was taken by Michael Jeffers. At the time he was a Chief Superintendent in the Metropolitan Police as well as the Chairman of the Guild. In recognition of his efforts Cardinal Basil Hume made him a Knight of St Gregory.
In 2010 the Catholic Police Guild was asked to take the lead in organising the Stewarding for the Papal Mass held at Westminster Cathedral on Saturday 18 September. The lead was taken by the current Guild President Patrick Sommervile.
The Guild undertakes bi-annual pilgrimages to various important holy places, including Rome, the Holy Land, Fátima, Portugal, Santiago de Compostella in Spain and Poland.[1]
In 1985 the Guild went on pilgrimage to Rome to celebrate its seventieth year of foundation. During this pilgrimage the Guild was addressed by Pope John Paul II on Friday, 12 April 1985:
|Dear Friends,
I am indeed happy to welcome you all, representatives of the Catholic Police Officers of England and Wales, with members of your families, to this audience.
I am especially happy to renew my acquaintance with members of a category of public servants who played such a willing and generous part in facilitating my visit to your country in 1982.
This year you are celebrating the Seventieth Anniversary of the foundation of the Catholic Police Guild, established under the auspices of Cardinal Bourne in 1914. I wish to encourage you to persevere in the spirit and good works which inspired the intentions of the founding members.
Your visit to the holy places of Rome, especially to the tombs of the Apostles Peter and Paul, give a truly pilgrim character to your presence here. I pray that this religious dimension of your stay will serve to consolidate your Christian faith and help you to see your professional and family responsibilities in the light of the Gospel message of God's love.
The high moral standards, the discipline, the self-sacrifice and the genuine concern for the common good which mark your public service are all ways of witnessing to the authenticity of your belief in the Paschal Mystery of the redeeming Death and Resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Yours is a work of service and of brotherhood. As such it needs the support of a profound sense of the unique dignity of every human being. The special value of each person can only be fully understood where each one is accepted as an image of God himself and a brother or sister of Christ. I hope that your work, which sometimes brings you into contact with the darker side of human nature, will not deter you from enthusiastically serving the cause of civic harmony and well-being with sensitivity and Christian hope.
Through you I wish to send my Easter greetings to all the members of your Guild, and indeed to all the members of the police forces of England and Wales.
May the grace and peace of the Risen Christ accompany you always! And may your families and friends, here present and at home, be abundantly blessed with Christian strength and joy! Know that I am grateful to you and that you remain in my prayers! [6]

Our dyslexia research was also featured in the Brain Matters Series. You can listen to that story here!
November 5, 2007 - KPCW (Utah public radio) interview with Nadine Gaab, Ph.D.: Some children with dyslexia struggle to read because their brains aren't properly wired to process fast-changing sounds. A new study finds that sound training via computer exercises can literally rewire the brains of these children and improve their reading skills. Here to discuss the study is Nadine Gaab, the Principle Investigator at the Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience at Boston Children's Hospital, and an assistant professor of pediatrics at Harvard.
Our recent PLOS ONE publication also received a lot of press coverage. Here are some of the articles:

Fox News
Fall 2009 - Vector magazine. Making brain research child's play: Imagine getting an active, energetic 4- to 6-year-old to separate from her mother and climb into a scary machine that encases her head and makes weird noises. Then imagine asking her to lie completely still, in near darkness, for 45 minutes or more while concentrating on a series of mental tasks. Normally, children this young must be sedated for functional MRI studies, which give scientists a glimpse of the brain at work by measuring shifts in blood flow and oxygenation. Children's researchers Nora Raschle and Nadine Gaab, PhD have found a fun way to image very young children without the use of sedation. Read more.
February 2008 - CHB DREAM magazine. From bench to bedside to classroom: Gaab is part of a growing body of scientists who find that neuroscience is sadly estranged from real-life applications and want to bridge this gap. As part of a burgeoning field called neuro-education, Gaab is opening channels of communication between cognitive neuroscience and the education system by taking what she discovers in the lab and bringing it into local classrooms to share with teachers, who can then incorporate her discoveries into their curricula. Read more.
December 2007 - Scientific Learning. Sound Training Rewires Dyslexic Children's Brains For Reading: A very recently published brain-imaging study suggests that children with developmental dyslexia struggle with reading because their brains do not process fast-changing sounds properly. Moreover the study found that with the help of computerized sound training, the children with developmental dyslexia were able to literally rewire their brain. This resulted in more accurate sound processing and hence better language and reading. Read more.
The Gaab Lab was on the front page of the Boston Globe. The newspaper featured an article about our Infant MRI study.

Sports Medicine Degree Programs with Course Information
Read about bachelor's, master's and doctorate degree programs in sports medicine. Learn about courses, career options, salary trends and continuing education for graduates.
Essential Information
The sports medicine field offers a wide range of careers for students studying at the bachelor's, master's or doctoral degree levels. Degree programs in sports medicine include classroom instruction and hands-on learning regarding human movement, physical activity and healthcare.
Bachelor's Degree in Sports Medicine
Students who earn a bachelor's degree in sports medicine can prepare for several types of careers in allied healthcare. Graduates provide guidance, preventative care and rehabilitation services to physically active individuals. Some private and public universities and colleges offer bachelor's degrees in sports medicine or related subjects, such as exercise science or athletic training.
Education Prerequisites
Gaining entry into a college or university generally requires a high school diploma or its equivalent. Admission into a sports medicine bachelor's degree program usually has additional requirements that vary for each program. Completing specific courses, being certified in first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and spending a certain number of hours observing a certified athletic trainer in a professional setting are required for admission by some programs.
Course Topics
Students in sports medicine bachelor's degree programs receive classroom instruction in addition to practical experience through internships. Some schools also provide students with hands-on training through assistance at campus health and wellness centers or within the athletic department. Common class topics include:
- Kinesiology
- Health and exercise science
- Weight training techniques
- Exercise physiology
- First aid
- Sport psychology
- Nutrition
- Therapeutic modalities
- Common athlete medical conditions
Popular Career Options
Typically, bachelor's degree programs in sports medicine are pre-professional options that prepare students for graduate programs. Most job opportunities in the field require that candidates to have at least a master's degree. However, some entry-level careers may be available to bachelor's degree holders, such as:
- Coach
- Physical education teacher
- Personal trainer
- Fitness instructor
Continuing Education
The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) offers certifications for sports medicine professionals. Voluntary credentials help to validate a professional's education and expertise. Some of the certifications offered by ACSM include the Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Group Exercise Instructor and Certified Health Fitness Specialist.
Master's Degree in Sports Medicine
Master's degrees are necessary for many sports medicine careers. The degree is typically offered as a Master of Science and takes two years to complete. Students can gain thorough sports medicine knowledge while conducting and critiquing research. Some programs allow students to select specialties within the sports medicine field, such as strength conditioning and athletic training.
Prerequisite Education
A bachelor's degree is usually required for entrance into a master's degree program. Students with a bachelor's degree unrelated to sports medicine may need to take specific courses before gaining entry.
Course Topics
Students in sports medicine master's degree programs receive classroom instruction, participate in research projects and obtain practical training. Qualified students could acquire graduate assistantship positions that afford them the opportunity to learn and practice athletic training and rehabilitation services on campus. Common coursework includes the following:
- Injury prevention
- Epidemiology
- Strength and conditioning theories and methods
- Human movement
- Musculoskeletal injury
- Biostatistics
- Advanced exercise physiology
- Biomechanics
Employment Outlook and Salary
An athletic trainer position is one of the career options for graduates of sports medicine master's degree programs. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), athletic training positions are expected to increase 37% from 2008-2018 (www.bls.gov). Job openings are most prevalent in healthcare, fitness, sport and recreational facilities. The BLS states that high schools are also employing more athletic trainers.
In May 2010, athletic trainers earned an average annual salary of $44,030, according to the BLS. Some employers with the highest employment levels were postsecondary schools, elementary and secondary schools, hospitals, health practitioner offices and recreational facilities.
Continuing Education
Nearly all states require athletic trainers to obtain a state license and certification from the Board of Certification, Inc. If licensure or certification isn't required, athletic trainers can still earn voluntary board certification or get certified through other professional credentialing organizations, such as the National Academy of Sports Medicine or the American College of Sports Medicine. Master's degree holders can qualify to earn ACSM's Registered Clinical Exercise Physiologist certification.
Doctoral Degree in Sports Medicine
Students interested in working in research or teaching at the university level can pursue their education further by enrolling in a doctoral program. The curriculum is often focused on research, and students typically choose an area within sports medicine in which to specialize, such as biomechanics, exercise nutrition or sport management. The program usually takes four years of full-time study to complete.
Prerequisite Education
Each program sets its own admission requirements; however, requiring a master's degree or specific undergraduate studies in exercise science or sports medicine is common for admission into a doctoral program. Preference could also be given to applicants who are certified athletic trainers or physical therapists.
Course Topics
In addition to classroom instruction, doctoral students often receive laboratory training where they conduct research projects at campus labs. They might attend regular seminars and have opportunities to acquire research assistantship positions. Some possible class and research topics include:
- Clinical biomechanics
- Sports medicine laboratory techniques
- Athlete eating disorders
- Multivariate statistics
- Epidemiological methods
- Athletic injury care

Stop by Porter Branch to see the Stafford Piecemakers'ss 14th Annual Quilt Show.
This year's theme is "Celebrate the Seasons."

Every morning, Patricia (Trisha) Polacco wakes to the sounds of singing birds on her old Michigan farm. She goes downstairs, pours herself a cup of coffee, and then plays an antique music box, enjoying its magical beauty. She then sits in her favorite chair, rocks and rocks, and dreams of stories, old and new, that she can tell to children through her words and her drawings.
There are some things which are hard and painful to understand. Slavery. Skyscrapers exploding. War. Tsunamis. Even famous people's ordinary lives.
But in a true story, there may also be courage, hope, love, and determination. When Jeanette Winter tells her readers of historic events and people, she makes sure the stories carry not only the frightening pieces but the parts that leaven the misery as well.
