In this memoir-cum-manifesto, Idliby, a Muslim American of Palestinian and Kuwaiti origin, writes about her experiences raising Muslim children in America and being a moderate Muslim, particularly in New York City, post-September 11. Idliby is an eloquent and informed spokeswoman for her faith, and voices like hers are needed in today's charged political climate. In this book she counters extremists on both sides, Muslim and non-Muslim, with calls for peace and rational dialogue. In particular she focuses on her children's experiences growing up Muslim and America, with mixed success; while some anecdotes of the conflicts they face with fitting in and standing out are powerful illustrations of fear and prejudice at work, others wander into simple parental indulgence, such as her recounting of her young toddler's sleep habits. Other aspects of the book also veer from the main focus, such as a chapter addressed to her young daughter. Readers well-versed in Islam should look elsewhere for depth and nuance, but for others it will be a light and likeable introduction to issues facing American Muslims today. (Jan. 7)

The San Antonio Spurs have already locked up the number one seed in the Western Conference and are riding high on a eight game winning streak heading into the post season.
They could use their final two regular season games to rest their stars, stay healthy and ready for a deep playoff push and perhaps a legitimate shot at their fifth NBA title.
But it doesn't seem to keep the team from looking ahead, trying to improve their roster as early as possible.
According to Chris Haynes of CSNNW.com, several sources have told him the Spurs are intent on making a serious push (Hat tip Spurs Nation) at signing Portland forward Nicolas Batum during the offseason.
Batum can become a restricted free agent after the season. Most analysts have his next contract pegged at about $10 million per year. Batum told CSNNW.com that he expected to be drafted by the Spurs during his 2008 rookie draft before Houston made a surprise pick of him at No. 25.
"I was shocked," Batum told CSNNW.com. "I thought for sure I was headed to San Antonio. I was talking with Tony (Parker) and the guys and then Houston drafts me out of nowhere. I never worked out for them. They had T-Mac (Tracy McGrady) and (Shane) Battier at that time, and I was confused. Then I was traded to Portland and I was like 'O.K., that's better'."
The 23 year-old Batum, could be an ideal addition to the Spurs' structured system. He is close with Tony Parker and Boris Diaw after playing with them on the French national team.
Batum has averaged a career-best 13.9 points and 4.6 rebounds for the Trail Blazers in his fourth season, and is averaging 10.2 points and 3.9 rebounds for his NBA career.
A sore left knee kept the athletic forward from playing in the Spurs' 124-89 victory over Portland Monday night at the AT&T Center. But he sounded impressed when he told CSNNW.com about watching the Spurs.
"The Spurs play well together. They share the ball and do everything the right way," Batum said. "I don't know what's going to happen with my situation and I'm not worried about it right now. Everything will play itself out."
With the current logjam at the small forward position, it seemed not wise to invest on another young talent, but his athleticism and youth could be enough reasons for the Spurs to have a long look at him.
However at $10 million per year, as a Spurs fan, I'm having second thoughts.
San Antonio's salary cap situation next season will largely depend on how big Tim Duncan's paycut would be.
Also adding another legitimate big man on the Spurs' frontcourt, wouldn't be such a bad idea moving forward.
What do guys think? Send us your thoughts on this matter.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Aisha I. JeffersonThe Harper family may have settled into the reality of living the American Dream, but watching themselves on ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" Sunday was sort of surreal. A multitude of "oohs," "aahs" and laughs exploded throughout the evening as the Harper family of Lake City watched their old home demolished and the unveiling of their new dream home thanks to the TV show. "Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would be sitting on the other side," an emotional Patricia Harper said about watching the show in her family's new home. The Harper family applied last year to be on the show. More than 40 family members, friends and Lake City residents, including Mayor Willie Oswalt and his wife Lawanda, assembled before the new Hitachi Plasma television in the Harper family room to watch the "Extreme Makeover" episode with them. Even a couple of Lake City police officers stopped in to share the Harper's joy. "Probably the last time we saw people like this was at my Aunt Joyce's funeral," said the oldest Harper son, Tammell, 24, who held his 11 month old daughter Tatiyana. "I think it's beautiful; words can't describe it," Milton Harper said, watching himself on TV and wiping tears from his eyes with a balled-up tissue. The prayers of Patricia and Milton Harper, along with their three sons, Darius, LaVaughn and Mister, ranging in ages 8 to 17, were answered Jan. 23, when they returned to find the home of their dreams: a 5,300 square-foot, five-bedroom, seven-bath English Country-style home, in place of their old one. The family also received a black 2005 Ford 500, and $100,000 for the home's maintenance and upkeep as part of the surprise. The Harpers' new home is the biggest home the "Extreme Makeover" crew ever attempted to build. The Harpers moved to Lake City from a New York public housing project and spent their life savings trying to repair the house they purchased in 1999 on Ahyoka Drive in Lake City. The family experienced problems with a septic tank that backed up into the house each time it rained, forcing them to sleep in a van in the driveway. The construction project began Jan. 17 when the septic tank was emptied and the utilities were shut off. Asbestos and other illness-inducing germs were discovered in the home during pre-demolition work. A crew of more than 200 people tore down the old home and built the new one in less than six days, while the family vacationed in California's Disney Land. Beazer Homes, the sixth-largest home builder in the nation, oversaw the home's construction. All of the bedrooms were decorated to suit the tastes of its inhabitants, such as Mister's cardiologist-themed room or Darius' room, which has a photographed mural of the Brooklyn Bridge, paying homage to his native New York. The Harpers currently operate Mister Protection, a family-owned home security system company, which is based in their new home. Although Patricia Harper loves every inch of her new home, she does have her favorite feature. "I think the 200-year-old wood beams, those are priceless," she said looking up at the family room ceiling. Patricia Harper said she wanted to thank Beazer Homes, Clayton County, Oswalt, "Extreme Makeover" and ABC "for changing our lives." "We could never say enough 'thank yous' for the gifts they have given to us," she said.

Fab set of clubs. Pefect ballance of quality and value for money. the shafts are about 3/4 inch longer than standard which suits me perfectly. I get at least one club more distance with these than my other set which are pings. I do think the polished finish will take looking after, but i do care for my clubs anyway. These clubs also play with a heavier swing weight which help you to swing with a rythmn.
I picked up a nearly new set for £149 from a retailer which is three times less that my Pings. Fantastic value. I play off 12 and they suit me very well.

Residents decry closure of sheriff's substations
VISTA -- Mark McPartlin, a 50-year-old property manager, said he has seen a lot of changes since he first came to Vista in 1979, including times when drug and gang problems saturated many areas of the city.
Taking a break one day last week from refurbishing a small apartment complex toward the end of Eaton Way off of North Santa Fe Avenue, McPartlin said it "used to be one of the worst gang streets in town."
"Now there's nothing goin' on here -- nada," he said.
McPartlin wants it to stay that way. That's why he's opposed to the city's plans to close two San Diego County Sheriff's Substations in city-owned residences that serve as homes for community policing teams consisting of four deputies and a sergeant. Closing the stations means a loss of 10 deputies in the city. Two is half the number of substations.
McPartlin is not alone. Many residents disagree with the city's decision to close the substations, one on Moon Road in west Vista and the other on Thibodo Road in southeast Vista.
Deputies also are saddened by the closures, said sheriff's Capt. Rob Ahern. Yet because of budget constraints, the City Council earlier this month confirmed its plan to close the substations to save $1.2 million annually.
"It's a bad idea," McPartlin said, shaking his head. "If we take the police away … the gangs will say, 'Oh, we can come back.' "
Community policing in action
Sitting behind his desk last week, Sgt. Marc Ramirez said there was a lot of criminal activity on Eaton Way in the late 1990s. To eliminate that problem, the community policing teams took a number of approaches, he said.
They worked to help raze abandoned buildings that housed illicit activities. They stepped up patrols of the street by assigning deputies to that specific area.
Gang suppression measures were also used. The deputies would identify known gang members, check for warrants, and arrest those who have outstanding ones.
"It's typical of what we do," the sergeant said matter-of-factly.
The 10 deputies the city is losing focus mainly on issues such as gangs, drugs, graffiti, truancy and auto theft. The city is retaining its gang and narcotics unit.
Public safety rated top priority
Although not many residents have come to City Council meetings to voice their concerns about the closures since the issue became public in December, a recent city-sponsored survey of 600 residents showed that public safety is their top priority.
Only two residents have protested the closures at council meetings since January.
Sitting in the council chambers Tuesday, one of those critics, Albert Viereck, said that "we need the sheriff's here more than ever."
"I don't care how we get the money," he said. "I am willing to pay extra taxes."
City Manager Rita Geldert hired an independent research firm to call the 600 residents in February to gauge what priority residents place on issues such as law enforcement and fire protection. The survey also attempted to determine whether they would be willing to pay more money for fire and police services. The city has a contract with the Sheriff's Department to provide police protection.

Union County Shopper-News 052612
A great community newspaper serving Maynardville and Union County
UNION COUNTY www.ShopperNewsNow.com | www.facebook.com/ShopperNewsNow | POSTAL CUSTOMER twitter.com/shoppernewsnow VOL. 7 NO. 21 A great community newspaper May 26, 2012 Bridge work stalled By Shannon Carey Tennessee Department of Transportation announced May 22 that the contract with Mountain States Contractors LLC for the new Highway 33 Bridge over Norris Lake has been cancelled. TDOT will solicit new bids for the project and issue a new completion date when a new contract is in place. "(TDOT) understands how important the construction of a new bridge is to the people traveling in that area," said TDOT spokesperson Mark Nagi. "This is a challenging project, involving some of the deepest waters in the state. We have been diligent in monitoring this project and will continue to work toward getting it moving again as quickly as possible." According to Nagi, geological conditions on the lake floor necessitated changes to the original designs for the new bridge's footings. Due to the cost associated with the changes, TDOT decided to cancel the contract and open bidding for the remaining work. The new bridge is more than one-third complete. It is being constructed alongside the existing bridge. Info: www. tn.gov/tdot. Chosen hearts honored IN THIS ISSUE Callie Corum and Milah Shoffner were honored at the American Heart Association Banquet on May 9. Photo submitted Roaring Lions The Union County Lions Club installed one new member and an officer for the 20122013 fiscal year at the May 21 meeting. Ronnie Mincey will hold the gavel as president and Judy Roe came on board as the newest member. Darrell Malone will be secretary-treasurer, and Randy Jones will continue as vision chair. By Cindy Taylor The Southeast Affiliate Region of the American Heart Association honored two of Union County's "Sweet Hearts" during its May 9 Go Red for Women event at the Knoxville Convention Center. Fourteen-year-old Callie Corum and 4-year-old Milah Shoffner were welcomed to the stage by "Live at Five at Four" co-host Beth Haynes. Both girls survived open heart surgery at an early age and are now living normal, healthy lives. Shoffner is the daughter of See Cindy's story on page 4 Art with a twist Willie White is known in his community as the guardian of the lake people. But when he is not watching over neighboring properties, his talents take him in another direction. Nicole and Jamie Shoffner of Luttrell. Shoffner, who had an ASD and VSD repair at Vanderbilt when she was 18 months old, will celebrate the third anniversary of her surgery June 2. She was the 2011 poster child for the American Heart Association and met Pat Summitt at an event last year. She was nervous about getting up on stage, but her biggest concern was that Summitt wasn't there this year. Corum is the daughter of Chris and Leslie Corum, also of Luttrell. Her open heart surgery was performed at Vanderbilt when she was 2 years old to repair an ASD defect. She is celebrating her 11th year post surgery and will attend Union County High School this fall. She led the invocation prior to the dinner with a beautiful prayer. "Dear God, I thank you that Milah and I can stand up here healthy," said Corum. "I also want to thank you for the AHA and Go Red for Women. Without organizations like this one, Milah and I might not be here. Lord, please instill in us a pure heart and give us the eyes to notice you when others can't, because just as Matthew 5:8 says, the pure in heart will see God. Please give us the opportunity to live in a way that is pleasing to you." Speakers for this year's event were UT Women's Athletic Director Joan Cronan, who issued the fourth annual challenge in honor of Pat Summitt. Another guest speaker was "Biggest Loser" contestant and former UT football player Antone Davis, who went on to play for the Atlanta Falcons and Philadelphia Eagles. Shoffner and Corum are both very involved with the American Heart Association and attend events throughout the year. Index See Cindy's story on page 5 Rice seeks GOP nod for state Senate By Sandra Clark Hobart L. Rice is a candidate for state senator from the 8th District, which includes Union County. A resident of Jefferson County, Rice was elected to serve on the Republican State Executive Committee in 2010. Each Senate district sends one man and one woman to the SEC, the governing body of the state Republican Party. The 8th District includes Union, Claiborne, Grainger, Hancock, Hawkins and Jefferson counties. On a personal note, Hobart and this writer organized and chartered Knox County's first Teen-Age Republican Club in 1966. Hobart was the club's first president, and I was an advisor from the Knox County Young Republican Club. In 1968, Rice was a senior at the old Young High School in south Knox County and was chosen to chair "Nixon Youth." After college, Rice moved to Jefferson County. He has been married to Bonnie Ellison Rice of Dandridge for 31 years. They have four children and five grandchildren. Rice says he's running for the state Senate to support Gov. Bill Haslam. "We've been sending people to Nashville who lose focus and forget why they're there. "They pass laws authorizing horse meat packing plants, but Tennessee is 46th in education and our people desperately need jobs. "How can we look our children and grandchildren in the eye and explain to them that we are doing nothing to give them a better future? How do you recruit good companies to a state that offers their employees a school system that is fourth from the bottom? "It is time to send someone to Nashville who will not lose that focus, who will remember what is important and will finally give our children a chance at a real future." In Jefferson County, Rice has chaired the county Republican Party for four terms and was involved in campaigns for local, state and national candidates including the election of President George W. Bush. Over his career, he has managed retail stores and served as a Jefferson County deputy under Sheriff Elmer Franklin. He served as "commissioner of personnel and finance" on the DanHobart Rice dridge City Council. He's eager to meet folks in Union County and says call him anytime on his cell phone at 865-548-8479 or email him at hobartlrice@aol. com. Final personal note: Other than being amazed that a kid I knew as a teenager is now a grandfather, I found Hobart Rice the same enthusiastic fellow I've always known. Get to know Hobart.

Back pain in the workplace Chiropractic Outlook By Dr. Darrell Johnson, DC Every job has its potential for injury. You don't have to be a construction worker to put stress on your back. Even relatively physically undemanding office work can pose problems. Physically intense jobs may put a person at greater risk for an accident on the job, but sedentary work like sitting at a desk all day can also prove quite taxing. Sitting at a desk all day, hunched over a keyboard or paperwork, can put considerable stress on a person's back, especially if he or she is not practicing proper posture. Add a long commute at each end of the day and you have the recipe for a back problem for the sedentary worker. Some studies have shown that office workers, as a group, are less likely to seek treatment for back pain because they're resigned to the situation as just part of the job. If you work in a desk-bound situation, make sure your chair is adjusted properly. You should be leaning back at an angle of at least 110 degrees. And make sure your computer screen is at eye-level so you're not crooking your neck to see it. Talk with a chiropractor about ways to keep healthy in the workplace.

But when he is not watching over neighboring properties, his talents take him in another direction. White has been producing walking sticks from twisted "found" wood since before he retired more than 20 years ago. He rescued his first piece behind a business in Halls and has been hooked ever since. Most of the wood is sassafras that has been "choked" by honeysuckle. "I find a lot around power lines," said White. "You're likely to see me stopped anywhere out in the woods cutting a walking stick." White collects during the DOWN-home UPdate winter when most plants are sleeping and the sap is down. This avoids cracking of the wood as it dries. He says the honeysuckle will be the only plant that still has some green, making it easy to spot. According to White most of the honeysuckle grows upward on the wood from right to left. White has one rare stick on which the honeysuckle has grown left to right. "These are rare and spe- cial," said White. "Everybody wants that one." If the sticks are crooked, White attaches them onto a flat board until summer. He then "de-barks" the stick, smoothes it down and stains it. White cuts the ends off of the sticks to get the height he wants. Two coats of polyurethane are added to protect the stick. A torch is used beforehand if he wants to accentuate the curl in the stick. This makes the curl darker and produces a whole different effect. White uses shoestrings for hangers. "I usually buy a lot of shoestrings at a time," said White. "A little girl saw me buying them once and told me I sure went through a lot of shoestrings. I told her she ought to see how many shoes I go through." White's workshop cur- Willie White shows his favorite walking stick, his handmade pipe and his pet wood snakes. Photos by C.

Pink out y'all! By Cindy Taylor Big Ridge Elementary held Pink Out Day on May 18, marking the third breast cancer awareness event at the school. To kick off the event, teacher Sara Longmire got a haircut. Students bought raffle tickets for the privilege of cutting Longmire's hair. Aidian Shartzer was the lucky "barber." The hair was then donated to Locks of Love. Events included threeon-three basketball between faculty members, followed by the faculty/staff field day events. Teams participating were Pink Passion, Pink Power, Pink Flamingos and Pink Panthers. The day concluded with the forming of a human pink ribbon for the annual photo and a bake sale. Big Ridge began Pink Out Day three years ago in honor of Jeanie Bowling, a teacher and breast cancer survivor. Students, parents, faculty and staff always help make this a wonderful day. All money raised benefited the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Sara Longmire receives a haircut for Locks of Love from Aidian Shartzer, assisted by Louanne Nicely.

He does most of the field reviews and all the mapping. His customer service skills are outstanding and I have never seen him angry � not even when he got stuck in the mud, had to be towed home, or chased by dogs. When you see him in your neighborhood driving the "Green Machine", please be kind. He furnishes his own vehicle. He has worn out at least 3 cars since I have known him and hopes this one will last a good while. According to Randy, the Green Machine is the most under-appreciated, hardest-working truck in the county. As Randy travels over the county he has the opportunity to meet many wonderful people. He loves it when he meets someone with long tales of the past. Randy's strength lies in his strong faith in God and his family, wife Rhonda and daughter Bekah. If you know Randy, you know he is always ready to help anyone in need. We love rainy days when Randy can't leave the office, because he has such a great sense of humor he keeps us all laughing. I may be the Assessor but he is the heart of the office. Randy has a difficult and dangerous job. Please be kind and courteous to him as he performs his duties. Sincerely, Donna NEW TO MEDICARE?

So you want to start your own tennis line?
A little background on my company. Some of you TT old timers might remember me starting a small tennis apparel company years ago (Ozone Athletics). My objective was to learn as much as possible and start with a minimum budget of a couple hundred dollars and see how far I can take it. I got lots of advice and opinions from TT members on design and fabrics and I was off and running. I sponsored teams, juniors and journeymen pros with free clothing. Highest ranked pro (154) was Pavel Snobel from the Czech. His agent helped me with networking in Europe and things really took off. A corporation came in and made me an offer and I sold the company/brand and basically retired (I'm 37 this year) and spend almost everyday playing tennis.
Well, I'm getting a bit antsy again but also want to help a lucky TT member since without TT I'd still be sitting behind a desk. I know there's at least one person here that's in the same position I was in years ago. If you have interest in tennis/athletic apparel PM me your story. This offer will be open to one person only. My contacts will be open to you and I will help you start/create your own tennis apparel line, team and club uniforms, etc the best i can. This is not a partnership so only the motivated need apply.
Pics or it didn't happen:
that is certainly one interesting post, to say the least
are you open for questions?
if someone would ask me whether to start an own tennis clothing line, i would definitely say no. the big players seem to dominate the market, the internet is dumping prices,...
Can I ask how big the offer was, that you are able to retire? :D
Sure. Ask away.
I didn't start with the goal of becoming the next Phil Knight. Just wanted to prove to myself that anything can be done if you set your mind to it.
It'd be unrealistic to try to compete with the big three.
Unless I'm really careless I'll be just fine. ;)
did you think that you could do anything better than the big players?
that you had something to offer that wasn´t there?
in todays global economy that is a common mindset, that if you want to succeed you need to find a niche for your product.
Also, I take it your located in Europe. Something like that here in the States I don't think would get much traction. How much did you have to travel at first to get your product out there?
Now this is interesting.. Been wanting to do this here in the Philippines and I don't know where to start. I visity TT again and here's your post. Can't seem to be able to PM you though but I'd really like to learn how you did it. :)
Good questions.
I can only speak in regards to apparel. Truthfully, anyone who knows how to sew can make a shirt as good or better than the big players (well maybe with a bit of practice).
When you pay $75 for a shirt from the big players what are you really paying for? It's just fabric, thread and maybe some ink/dye. Think about the raw material costs and labor and you'd be amazed.
I'm not a very creative guy so niche products aren't my niche :p I'd rather take something that's proven and then make it better and/or cheaper. Just the way my mind works.
I'm actually located in SE Asia. With a little investigation you can find out exactly where I'm based. I was born and raised in the US. Just living the American dream overseas.
I actually made my very first sale in the US. When I first started out my father sold (soldout) them out of the trunk of his car. Because of the way things turned out in EU and SEA I didn't have time or energy to pursue the US market. Although, I'm sure it would've done just as well.
I've done 0 travelling in regards to business. Lots of emails and mailing out samples though.
What was your annual revenue? Who were your biggest customers?
Thanks again!
Go to my profile and send email.
If its a general question just post in the thread. I don't want to get tons of emails asking the same question.
Sorry I can't answer questions about my former business. All I can say is everyone will be different. Luck, desire, hard work, willingness to learn, commitment. Thats all you need.
You don't have to only create for your own brand but for others also. If a company likes your stuff they'll pay you to make it for them.
Ironically enough my teammate and I are starting an apparel company. We were joking around with creating shirts for the upcoming season and came up with a good concept, logo/identity and name.
We will be going for the more casual look (t-shirts, hats, pullovers, sweatshirts) at the beginning as opposed to performance gear.
We're looking at handing out samples on league nights, custom gear and sponsoring events.
did you sell the clothing yourself over the internet or did you bother with retailers?
What tips about making the first line would you give to a newcomer in the business.
2. Decent design and color choice.
Tried to email you. I'm interested in knowing more about your story. I sell my line here on Tennis Warehouse. It's called Stick It Wear?! (mens & womens)
You can also find me on stickitwear.com and facebook.com/stickitwear.
If you can email me. My name is Joe Durica. email@example.com
Do manufacturers require you to provide supplies.
Your Guidance would be appreciated
I hope all is well. I just joined this forum last week and I search the topic "starting a tennis clothing line." I came across this thread and was so excited. I know it is very old, but I am so excited about my ideas for a tennis apparel line that caters to the "regular gal" and I hope you can be a mentor to me in this process. I live and breathe tennis and began playing for varous leagues about a year and a half ago. I have noticed that alot of the ladies complain about the same issues with tennisware and I have so many great ideas. I actually wore one of my prototypes to my last ALTA Sunday match this weekend and everyone loved it. They kept asking where I got my pants/tights and when I said I created them, they bout died. I know that the ideas that are keeping me up at night are being revealed through the creative intelligence within me and I want act on this. Please let me know if you are still available to guide someone through the process. Sharren. My email is firstname.lastname@example.com.

América CV Network is a Spanish television network in the United States, created as a result of the joint venture agreement between Sherjan Broadcasting and Caribevision Network Spanish-language television networks. CV Network launched in 2007 with owned and operated stations in New York City, Chicago, Miami, and San Juan until November 2009. CV Network and its related owned and operated stations as well as America TeVe's Channel 41, were brought under the common ownership and management of a new entity called America CV Network and its sister company America CV Station Group. The America CV name is a play on America TeVe and CV Network. Ownership of America CV Network is shared on a 50/50 basis between America Teve, which was the prior owner of WJAN-CD and the CV Network group, which consists of Barba TV Group, and Pegaso Television, which itself is a subsidiary of Mediaset a Spanish broadcasting firm Mediaset España Comunicación. Both broadcasting companies added their additional programming content to the network's existing programming. On July 31, 2012, the four stations contributed by CV to the joint venture took affiliation with MundoFox, which soft-launched the day after, with the official launch coming August 13. The fifth station, Miami's Channel 41, remained independent. In January 2013, WFUN (also Miami), left the Mundo Fox affiliation, and launched Teveo, a news channel directed at the Spanish-speaking community in Miami.
Currently, the joint venture partners, that is the CV Group and America Teve are in litigation, with leading media lawyer Marcell Felipe and his team representing the CV Group. The case is pending in Miami Dade County.

Anywhere you go in Rome, you're walking on a buried, ancient world. Beneath your feet lie the remnants of the city that ruled an empire: temples and streets, villas and churches, monuments and tombs. And while we've all heard of the catacombs, there are many, many other underground sights in the city that are every bit as fascinating. If not more so.
I wrote about seven of my favorite hidden, yet accessible places for an underground Rome fix for the Globe and Mail, online here.
(Update,December 2014: After I wrote that piece, one of the coolest, and longest-awaited, underground sites in Rome opened: the Domus Aurea, or Nero's Golden House. Find out more about the Domus Aurea, and how to get there, here!).
I love sharing Rome's hidden gems (and views) with others — so I was thrilled to do this slideshow for BBC Travel on Rome, behind the lens. Check it out to see some of Rome's most stunning, least-known sights... and perhaps to get some ideas for your next trip to the Eternal City!
"The ancient Greek theatre of Taormina, Sicily, was designed with serious drama in mind – and not just the costumed kind. Perched 250 metres above the Ionian Sea, the amphitheatre's 360-degree view encompasses the still-active Mount Etna, the sparkling Mediterranean, the medieval village of Castelmola and, of course, Taormina itself.
From here, the town's pastel palazzi and pretty cathedrals spread across the lush hillside like icing on a cassata siciliana, a traditional Sicilian cake.
It's hard to look away—or say goodbye. Which is why I've come back to the town for a second time."
Read the rest of my story on the ancient seaside town—out in today's issue of the Globe and Mail newspaper—online here.
It's no secret that I adore Monti, the ancient rione a stone's throw from Rome's Colosseum and forum. Want to find out why? Pick up the April issue of National Geographic Traveler (that's the U.S. version of the magazine), where I've written about some of the area's hidden gems and hottest spots—from an ancient basilica to an artisanal gelateria. Here's a sneak peek, but when the article goes live online, I'll share it here, so check back. (Update, March 17: You can now read the story about Monti online!).
And stay tuned for news of an article on another fantastic Rome neighborhood, for another great travel magazine, coming soon. (What can I say, I hate to play favorites).
I was back on the How to Tour Italy radio show with Anthony Capozzoli today, talking about one of my favorite subjects, Rome's underground sites.
Got a half-an hour? That's enough time to get the low-down on my top four underground sights, including the Basilica of San Clemente, Catacombs of Santa Priscilla, Palazzo Valentini, and hypogeum of the Colosseum. Enjoy!

Week 14
Your Baby's Development
By this week, some fine hairs have developed on your baby's face. This soft colorless hair is called lanugo, and it will eventually cover most of your baby's body until it is shed just before delivery.
By now, your baby's genitals have fully developed, though they may still be difficult to detect on an ultrasound examination. In addition, your baby starts to produce thyroid hormones because the thyroid gland has matured.
Your baby now weighs about 1.6 ounces (45 grams) and is about 3.5 inches (9 cm) long from crown to rump.
Your Body
Under certain circumstances (for example, if you're older than 35 or if your screening tests indicated that there may be a problem with the fetus), your health care provider may discuss amniocentesis with you. Amniocentesis is a test usually done between 15 and 18 weeks that can detect abnormalities in a fetus, such as Down syndrome. During this test, a very thin needle is inserted into the amniotic fluid surrounding the baby in the uterus and a sample of the fluid is taken and analyzed. Amniocentesis does carry a very slight risk of miscarriage, so talk to your health care provider about your concerns and the risks and advantages of the test.

'67 Was Always the Only Option
Why we should be shocked by Bibi's shock
Two Haaretz op-eds together make the definitive case that the way to achieve two states—the stated objective of both President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyahu—is to negotiate, as Obama put in his speech yesterday, "based on the 1967 lines with mutually agreed swaps."
Daniel Gideon Levy, one of the paper's more left-wing columnists, cites the Palestinian who came in from Syria during the Nakba Day protests and traveled to Jaffa, to see his immediate ancestors' hometown. "Maybe now we will begin to understand its roots and solutions," Levy writes of the bitter conflict. "Maybe we will begin to understand that for the Palestinian people the 1967 borders are the mother of all compromises and concessions, a compromise that is far more painful for them than for us." 1967, in other words, is the most Israel can get in exchange for the crucial renunciation of the right of return. And Ari Shavit, a centrist, argues from the other side: "Without accepting the principle of 1967, Netanyahu's other principles will remain full of holes," he observes. These principles "will end up the latest unimportant remarks by an unimportant prime minister." Both writers are saying the same thing: That for Israel, which after years of inaction is faced with the Palestinian push for U.N. recognition, '67 is the most it can reasonably expect to get. Therefore, it is the only sensible premise.
Now for the punch-line: Those two op-eds were published yesterday morning.
That is, both were thought up, written, and published before Obama's speech, in which he became the first U.S. president to explicitly, publicly call for the 1967 border to be the basis for negotiations—to the apparent shock of Netanyahu, the Likud Party, the Republican Party, and various right-leaning American Jewish groups.
The '67 borders are just part of the deal: They are what you agree to in order to get an end to right of return, a demilitarized Palestinian state, and a U.S. veto at the U.N. in the meantime—all things Obama also proposed. So why was Netanyahu surprised and appalled? Why the petty angry phone call with Secretary of State Clinton? The writing was on the wall, on the morning of, in the Israeli press. The necessity was there. And it remains.

Professional networking and schmoozing are two of the most important skills a librarian can have. They are not taught in MLIS programs, and being proficient at both was one of the hardest lessons I had to learn. In order to get the projects done in my community that I was passionate about, move my library forward, and garner political support, I realized that I needed to take advantage of the many professional and political social opportunities going on around me. Over several years I worked hard to learn how to connect whenever an opportunity arose. The following are things that I've learned by watching other people, by reading and learning about networking, and from what has worked for me at events when I don't know anyone.

Cuisine: Chicago-Style | ALA Midwinter Preview 2015
Restaurant review and travel publisher Fodor's shared the following selection of dining choices with LJ's readers. Prices listed are the average cost for a main dinner entrée, excluding taxes. The area around McCormick Place has plenty of low-key eateries, but if you'd rather find a spot that locals love and newcomers consider well worth a short taxi ride, head to these Fodor's-recommended locales in the nearby South Loop and Chinatown areas.
Library Simplified Works on Three-Click Access for Library Ebooks | ALA 2014
Library ebook transactions remain too lengthy and complicated for patrons, especially in comparison with consumer ebook transactions, James English, product manager for the Library Simplified project at the New York Public Library (NYPL) said during his "EPUB: Walled Gardens and the Readium Foundation" presentation at the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) Book Industry Study Group (BISG) Eighth Annual Forum, held June 27 in conjunction with the American Library Association (ALA) 2014 Annual Conference. The group is working to make an open, commercial-grade ereader for libraries that would greatly simplify this process.
What Happened in Vegas | ALA 2014
The 2014 American Library Association (ALA) Annual Conference & Exhibition, held June 26 – July 1 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, saw some 13,019 attendees. Though this is a pretty substantial drop-off compared with the 20,237 attendees who came to Chicago in 2013, it is higher than the 12,000+ attendees who visited Annual in Anaheim, CA in 2012. Critiques of the location, which has not hosted an ALA annual conference since 1973, included the vast distances between event sites and the expensive transportation—and, of course, the heat, which topped out at 111 degrees. However, those who did attend seemed excited about the exhibit hall's 800 company offerings, and heavy crowds surging toward the galley giveaways greeted the exhibit openings on both Friday evening and Saturday morning.
Student Journals an Opportunity for Libraries as Publishers | ALA 2014

Melinda Dermody, head of access and sharing at Syracuse University libraries, moderated the panel, which included Catherine Mitchell, director of the Access & Publishing group at the California Digital Library (CDL), Rebecca Kennison Director of the Center for Digital Research and Scholarship at Columbia University, and Cyril Oberlander, library director at the State University of New York (SUNY) Geneseo.
Quirky Books for Fall 2014 | ALA Annual 2014

The authors, a few […]
