English as a Second Language
Culture and Language Immersion Focused on You
The ESL Program at Morgan State University consists of three interrelated components: language instruction, cultural immersion and educational field experiences. The program's foundational aim is to increase students' oral and written proficiency in standard American English. This is accomplished through classroom and laboratory based education in spaces designated for ESL instruction. However, our programs extend beyond the conventional classroom. We immerse our students in the English language through the study of American and African-American popular culture that includes a series of lectures, workshops, and excursions. This communicative approach is proven to reinforce language instruction by emphasizing meaningful speech, vocabulary acquisition and oral communication over simple content mastery. Students from a number of countries including Brazil, Equatorial Guinea, Italy, and, Saudi Arabia, have received instruction in Morgan's ESL Program.
Academic Program Levels
There are 7 levels of ESL instruction, ranging from classes to serve those with no English skills to classes for those with advanced skills.
The program offers the following courses based on participants' TOEFL scores:
ESL Beginning Literacy (Level 1)
ESL Beginning Low (Level 2)
ESL Beginning High (Level 3)
ESL Intermediate Low (Level 4)
ESL Intermediate High (Level 5)
ESL Advanced Low (Level 6)
ESL Advanced High (Level 7)
Regular programming for the Baltimore community and beyond includes all 7 levels of ESL listed above as well as:
- English for specific purposes (nursing, health professions, business, government, sciences, engineering, etc)
- Conversation
- Customized programs
- Online programs available 24/7
- TOEFL preparation
- Additional programming available
Additional information about the 7 ESL Program levels may be found in the link below.
Cultural Immersion
Our programs reach past our community's vicinity to take full advantage of our geographic proximity to Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and New York City. This method gives international students critical context for understanding American culture and integrating into the University community. We are focused on culture and language immersion: we journey with our students as they delve into cultural events at the University, throughout the city of Baltimore and beyond. Cultural excursions are an integral part of the ESL learning experience and among the cultural venues that the students and their iPals have visited are the High Zero Music Festival, Kinetic Sculpture Race, Lancaster County, P.A., Maryland Science Center, National Aquarium, and the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.
Social Media
- Visit our ESL Program Facebook Page for a albums and descriptions of Program events including orientations, cultural immersion trips, iPal Program collaboration, classroom events and certificate ceremonies, among many others.
- Visit our ESL Program Blog for students' perspectives on the Program and their experiences (food, travel, etc) in the United States.
Additional information about Cultural Immersion activities and the iPal Program may be found in the link below.
Academic Program Costs
The academic costs for the ESL Program are based upon several factors which include the number of classroom hours, the out-of-state undergraduate rate, room, board and insurance. For example, the out-of-state rate per credit hour of instruction for the fall 2014 through the Summer 2015 is $ 644 (tuition and fees). The ESL tuition and fees cover the cost of the teacher(s), textbooks, software, and other miscellaneous costs. There are additional costs for room, board insurance and cultural immersion. The program costs for ESL students who enroll during the fall through summer 2014 – 2015 year are as follows:
|Room and Board
|Cultural Immersion
|Total Costs
|Fall 2014
|Winter 2015
|Spring 2015
|Summer 2015b
All students must pay for the ESL course. However, students may elect not to live on campus; therefore, they would not pay for room and board. Students may opt out of insurance if they have proof of existing insurance. Proof of insurance must be provided to the University prior to the start of class or the student will be charged for University provided insurance automatically. It is highly recommended that all students participate (on or off campus) in cultural immersion as it is an integral part of the ESL program and increases the retention of language skills and cultural understanding. Students who opt out of the cultural immersion will not be able to participate in class outings.
Students who are attending the fall and spring terms will be charge an additional room and board fee to cover their room and board charges during the winter session. Any student who enters the dorm prior to the start of the term or remains in the dorm after the end of a term will be charged $25 for room and $26 for board for each day you are in the dorm. Each student receives a University issued ID card and has full access to all University supported programs (i.e. sporting events and extracurricular activities) and operations (i.e. Library).
Cultural Immersion Program Costs
The cultural immersion program costs covers the costs related to travel and admission to cultural immersions venues. Cost may include transportation, admission tickets, associated costs for the iPAL program, and meals (when traveling), Costs for cultural immersion can also vary by the size of the cohort of students enrolled during the year.

Bretislav Lukes was born on 12 January 1922 in Stankou in Czechoslovakia. During World War II he worked for the German Junkers aircraft factory. After the War he trained as an electrician while in an International Refugee Organisation (IOR) displaced persons camp. In 1950 he migrated to Melbourne, Australia, travelling from Germany via Bremen on the ship 'Goya'. When he arrived Bretislav was sent straight to Bonegilla Migrant Reception Centre in northern Victoria where he was given work on the Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric Scheme and then the Australian Iron and Steel at Port Kembla in 1950.
Lukes moved to Melbourne where he lived first in St Albans and then moved to Burwood East. In Melbourne he worked in the Myer workshop as a TV repair man, before moving to Watson Victa in 1952 where he made x-ray machines. In 1960 he began working as a technician in the Physics Department at Swinburne Institute of Technology. In Australia Bretislav was known as 'Bob', he belonged to an amateur radio club, he never married, and spoke English as well as Czech and German. Over the years he returned to Czechoslovakia and other countries and stayed in touch with his family, his father Emil Lukes who died in 1967, his mother Marie Lukesova and two sisters.

Dan Carter's Achilles tendon injury has ruled him out for the rest of the French season.
Carter has only played five matches and 361 minutes for Perpignan on a lucrative deal. He kicked two penalties and a conversion in his club's comeback 13-all draw against Stade Francais yesterday, but injured his Achilles in the final minute of the match.
"It is a partial tear of the Achilles tendon which means he will be unavailable for around six months," said Perpignan spokesman Benoit Brazes.
"It's a huge disappointment especially for him and for the club."
Carter suffered a similar injury which ruled him out for three weeks earlier this year and the club will now be in consultation with the All Blacks medical team.
"Now we are going to do our best possible to get him healthy again," added Brazes. "Our doctor will be in contact with the medical staff of the All Blacks to decide whether or not he will undergo surgery in France.
"At the moment he is in plaster and is at home. He underwent an examination on Sunday morning [in Paris] and returned with us by plane."
If Carter is out for the full six months as estimated, he will miss the All Blacks' Tri-Nations opener against the Wallabies, as well as their first match against the Boks on 25 July in Bloemfontein.

Louisville, KY (SportsNetwork.com) - U.S. Ryder Cup captain Tom Watson now knows the first nine players for his team. He has a little over three weeks until he makes his captains picks.
The nine players that made the team on points were - Bubba Watson, Rickie Fowler, Jim Furyk, Jimmy Walker, Phil Mickelson, Matt Kuchar, Jordan Spieth, Patrick Reed and Zach Johnson.
Dustin Johnson would have made the team, but removed himself from consideration as he has taken a leave of absence from the PGA Tour. Last year's PGA Champion Jason Dufner was bumped from the No. 9 spot in the standings after he withdrew from his title defense after nine holes due to two bulging discs in his neck
Captain Watson will make his picks on September 2, after the first two FedExCup playoff events are completed.
Tiger Woods is likely out of contention for a pick as he stands 70th on the U.S. points list and he failed to make the FedExCup playoffs. And then there is his balky back. Would Woods even be healthy enough to help the team come the end of September? That is another big question.
Tom Watson was the last U.S. captain to win in Europe, in 1993, and he returns to captain this years team. He will lean on Mickelson and Furyk, who are making their 10th and ninth appearances, respectively.
Zach Johnson will be making his fourth Ryder Cup appearance, while Kuchar and Bubba Watson are playing the event for the third time. Fowler, Reed, Spieth and Walker are all making the first appearance.
Among the top competitors for the three captains picks are Dufner, Ryan Moore, Brendon Todd, Keegan Bradley, Chris Kirk, Webb Simpson, Harris English, Kevin Na, Ryan Palmer, Matt Every and Brandt Snedeker, who rank 10th to 20th on the points list after the PGA Championship.
Of that group, only Dufner, Bradley, Simpson and Snedeker have played in the Ryder Cup, and all four have made just one appearance in the event.
Captain Watson will have his work cut out in making his picks. The European team is stacked and will be the clear favorite heading into the event at Gleneagles.
It has been a difficult season for Phil Mickelson. His lone top-10 finish was in Abu Dhabi at the beginning of the season, and that was on the European Tour.
Mickelson's last top-10 finish on the PGA Tour was at the 2013 Barclays, where he shared sixth place. That all changed at Valhalla.
The 2005 PGA Champion fired four straight rounds in the 60s, including a final-round 66 to end alone in second place, one stroke behind winner Rory McIlroy.
Mickelson indicated afterwards that he is looking forward to the offseason so he can work out some kinks in his swing.
"My short irons were terrible this year as a whole. It's usually a strength and I've got to get that back. Perfect example is the wedge shot on four. That's right up my alley," Mickelson explained. "I'm trying to hole that half the time and I'm hitting it 18 feet. It was a pathetic shot that when I could have put some pressure on with a birdie, I should have knocked it inside four or five feet, no problem, and I hit a terrible shot. Things like that have been happening this year. I can't let that happen anymore."
Mickelson is guaranteed to play at least four more events this year. He is eligible for the first three FedExCup playoff events and has made the U.S. Ryder Cup team as well.
After the Ryder Cup, who knows when we'll see Mickelson play another event. One thing is for sure, he'll put in plenty of work in on the driving range after the Ryder Cup and before whatever that next event happens to be.
* PGA Championship winner Rory McIlroy has gone 48-under par in winning his last three events - the Open Championship, the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational and the PGA Championship. In his previous 12 stroke-play events prior to the Open Championship, the Ulsterman was 50-under par combined.
* McIlroy is the first player to win back-to-back major championships since Padraig Harrington won the Open Championship and PGA Championship in 2008.
* Runner-up Phil Mickelson ended in the top-10 at all three PGA Championships contested at Valhalla. He was second this week, shared eighth in 1996 and tied for ninth in 2000.
* Rickie Fowler joined Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus as the only three players to finish in the top-5 in all four majors in one season. Fowler ended tied for fifth at the Masters, tied for second at both the U.S. Open and the Open Championship before sharing third at Valhalla. Woods and Nicklaus have both done it twice, and both won at least one of the four majors all four times they did so.
* The par-5 18th was the easiest hole in the final round as it averaged 4.38 strokes. For the week, the 18th was the simplest hole in the championship as players averaged 4.49 strokes on the hole. The 18th yielded 20 eagles for the week, while the other 17 holes combined to give up another 20.
* For the third straight day, the par-4 sixth was the most difficult hole as players averaged 4.36 strokes on that hole. The par-4 second was the hardest hole for the week as it averaged 4.36 strokes.
* McIlroy will defend his PGA Championship title next year at Whistling Straits in Kohler, Wisconsin.

I still don't know why Thomas insists on sporting that hot mess of a beard and what remains of the hair on his head. Even more so if you're in a helmet for extended periods of time. Shave!
Apparently the next release is gonna be Give Life Back To Music. They need to stop fucking around and push Doin It Right as a single+video.
Also, it doesn't need to be a single, but I really want a big spectacle of a video for TOUCH.
A video for Touch could be incredible.
If Paul Williams wasn't involved I might be inclined to agree.

consider your festival dreams dashed.
http://rapidcityjournal.com/news/dev...42d621cf5.htmlIt was a plan that would have used lasers to illuminate the nation's first national monument, attracted as many as 50,000 people, and starred one of the biggest names in music.
But it wasn't to be.
The National Park Service said Tuesday that it has rejected a proposal by Daft Punk, an electronic music group renowned for elaborate live concerts, to host a show on private land adjacent to the Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming.
Reed Robinson, superintendent for Devils Tower National Monument, said an agency representing the group, ICM Partners, approached the park in the fall and the park officially denied the request on Jan. 31.
Robinson said the park consulted with six Native American tribes about the proposal, all of which generally agreed that it would be a disrespectful use of one of the country's most sacred Native American sites.
"No event is going to be occurring in Devils Tower," Robinson said. "Anything that was proposed is a non-starter, is considered an adverse action according to the National Historic Preservation Act, and goes against the Park Service management approach."
Robinson said the request was highly unusual for the National Park Service. He said Daft Punk's agency appeared to be scouting locations across the world for a concert or multiple concerts to be held around the summer.
He said the group's agency was particularly interested in using lighting equipment, like lasers, at the base of the park's 1,300-foot rock tower.
"This being a night skies park and a natural park and a sacred site to 24 different tribes, that would be considered sacrilegious and gets into that 'inappropriate use'," Robinson said. "And that meant maybe we would have to close portions of the main trail to facilitate this kind of stuff."
The group's agency also indicated that it wished to host as many as 50,000 people at the concert site, owned by rancher Odgen Driskill, about half a mile away from the monument.
"I don't know if that's logistically possible given the location of Devils Tower, but given that they won four — maybe five — Grammys, they might have been able to do it," he said. "I'm not sure."
Robinson said as discussions with Daft Punk's agency continued through the end of last year, the agency grew to understand the significance of the site to Native Americans and that the proposal was unlikely to be permitted.
Daft Punk is an electronic music duo from France that rose to popularity in the 1990s. At this year's Grammy Awards, the group earned five awards, including record of the year and album of the year.
[Editor's note: This story has been changed to reflect a clarification. The proposed concert site is on private land adjacent to the monument and the lasers would have been placed at the base of the tower.]
That would be awesome if they were trying to recreate Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

win a grammy, then don't go out on tour to support new album. daft punk = wtf
If you knew anything about Daft Punk at all you wouldn't be expecting them to tour.
Say what you will about the merch they're selling and all... but I am loving the little ads they've put up for the items on facebook.
For example:
(maybe those are on their main web page too... but that site loads slow as fucking balls)
Apparently the Facebook ads are uniffiliated with Daft Punk
daft punk = a band/djs who do't tour for they're fans. Pretty damn selfish imo. I'm not hurt over the fact they don't want to do what other bands do, but touring is a great way to thank your fans for supporting your ass.
Who gives a shit if they don't tour?

I mean, that's before we get in to the thought that calling it "selfish" implies that you are somehow owed something by them.
(side note: why am I engaging with one of the two worst new posters on the board? Am I that bored today?)
At this point I truly think they are holding out for a 2017 tour, as to align with their previous ventures
Maybe they are waiting for James Cameron to make a 3d film for their concert .
Spicy pie is mainstream shit.
They don't "owe" fans anything, but everyone with a mild interest in them really wants to see them tour. The last tour is absolutely what they are most famous for and the fans want more. Ten years between tours is just too much.

Indian emerging party AAP factor haunting major opposition BJP
Publication Date : 06-01-2014
The emerging Indian party Aam Aadmi Party's success in the Delhi Assembly polls seems to have greatly upset the current opposition party Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
The party has not missed a single opportunity to convey to the general public that the newly-born outfit is playing second fiddle to the Congress and that the transparency and probity in public life espoused by it is merely an eyewash.
And though the principal opposition party criticised Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for his scathing attack on Narendra Modi at his Press conference yesterday, senior BJP leaders said the party is happy because the PM has unintentionally brought the focus, which had shifted to Arvind Kejriwal following AAP's stunning success in the Delhi election, back to Modi.
The BJP was quick to point out that Kejriwal's intended move to shift to a five-bedroom duplex flat was something that the common men and women in Delhi can only dream about. When the Delhi chief minister today announced that he would not move into the apartment on Bhagwan Das Road, allegedly on the advice of his well-wishers, the BJP national spokesperson, Shahnawaz Hussain, dubbed the very desire of Kejriwal to live in a five-bedroom apartment as "anti-aam aadmi".
The BJP, palpably concerned about the growing popularity of AAP across the country, has dismissed Kejriwal's party as one of the elite and not the common people. Hussain said the BJP is not impressed with all the talk of austerity by AAP leaders. He said several BJP leaders also lead a simple life.
"There should be a similarity between what you preach and what you practice. By not using beacon lights on their cars, AAP leaders are behaving as if they have made a big sacrifice. Kejriwal had taken not one but two bungalows," Hussain said.
The BJP spokesperson also said that the covert understanding between the Congress and the AAP is becoming obvious with every passing day. The ruling party at the Centre is using AAP as a B-team to stop Narendra Modi from becoming Prime Minister as it does not have the capacity to do so, he said.
"They know Modi will unfurl the Tricolour at Red Fort this Independence day," Hussain said.
Dismissing AAP, he added: "People are fast losing their trust in AAP. Their views have changed not in days but in hours."
He recalled that while earlier AAP had promised to put former Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit in "handcuffs" for her alleged involvement in corruption charges against her government soon after coming to Asked about AAP's announcement to contest most Lok Sabha seats and its wish to see its leader Arvind Kejriwal as Prime Minister, Hussain retorted "Is Aam Aadmi Party leaving 150 for Congress? They should contest these seats also. The AAP is the B-team of the Congress." He also attacked the Congress, alleging it has not only brought bad name for the party but also sullied politics in the country.
"By saying that inflation, unemployment and corruption are a worry, the Prime Minister has accepted the charges BJP has been levelling all along," Hussain said.

High liquidity keeps driving US stocks up
WASHINGTON — US stocks sustained their push upward on Friday, capping the week with the Dow hitting its best level since Dec. 10, 2007, as high liquidity and ultra-low interest rates fuel an appetite for risk.
Investors remained hesitant during the week though as still-slow economic growth underpins a cautious outlook for corporate earnings, the third quarter reporting season beginning on Tuesday.
For the week the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 1.29 percent to end at 13,610.15, rising three straight sessions to Friday.
The broad-based S&P 500 ended up 1.41 percent in the week, finishing at 1,460.93, still 14 points below its high for the year.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq only put on 0.64 percent in the week, to 3,136.19, a 2.1 percent fall in its largest company, Apple, pulling it lower Friday.
The markets appeared ready to end the week on a strong bullish note early Friday after the Labor Department announced the jobless rate had fallen sharply to 7.8 percent in September, the lowest level since January 2009 and a good sign for President Barack Obama as he fights for re-election.
"While the media may be concentrating on the fact that payroll levels deteriorated in September, the underlying trends in the data were extremely positive," said Briefing.com.
But with a long weekend ahead — though markets will be open on the Columbus Day holiday Monday — investors sold off stocks in the afternoon for a fairly flat final day of the period.
"We erased the bulk of the day's rise at the end of the session because there was no longer anyone in the market, as often happens these days on Friday afternoon," said Gregori Volokhine of Meeschaert France.
Brokers said there was still a lot of cash available for investing, and that investors would continue to support the market, especially given the Federal Reserve's commitment to its new QE3 stimulus program.
"As the market continues to make new highs and confidence slowly comes back, there are still enormous amounts of cash on the sidelines, which could continue to push this bull market much higher for a very long time," said Ryan Detrick of Schaeffer's Investment Research.
The coming week will supply fresh data on the US international trade balance in August (Thursday), producer prices in September (Friday) and consumer sentiment (Friday).
The data is expected to provide little direction on the economy, however, except for a strong rise in gasoline prices behind the producer price figure.
Most attention will be on earnings, which will include Alcoa on Tuesday and JP Morgan Chase on Friday.

I must confess I''m smitten by the traditional design of this boat. So naturally I''m curious about what others have to say about HC yachts. I''m guessing that while they''re not terribly fast, they are both seaworthy and seakindly. Any opinions or experiences?
hans christian hc33
We started out looking for the HC 33. We found that they were made by two different yards. One yard was good the other shoddy, but it''s been so long I can''t remember what was what.
We looked at one that had the teak decks screwed in from the BOTTOM. Where the teak thinned over time, you had POINTS of screws sticking up -- talk about non skid. Plus, there was no easy way to get at the underside to fix the problem.
We finally decided they were over priced and difficult to determine quality.

"I was almost through with my appointment," Lomonaco told me last week, "when the optometrist noticed people evacuating and said, 'Something happened. We've got to get out of here.' As soon as I got out that door, I knew it was something completely dreadful. I ran across Church Street and looked back up at the buildings, and tower one was clearly on fire. That's the building where Windows was."
The master chefthe sunniest one I've ever knownwas deeply shaken, grappling with the personal impact of the horror. "I thought of all the people who were working," he said, somberly. "It encompassed every departmentkitchen workers, prep cooks, pastry cooks, accounting, wait staff, housekeeping. Personally, I feel a great sense of loss for all of my friends and coworkers. It's a completely unimaginable catastrophe. It's a miracle that I wasn't up on that elevator."
And it's a shamecall me superficialthat there's no more Windows on the World, which was such an integral part of the city's entertainment landscape that it merits its own wake. "It was such a romantic place," said Lomonaco, "that it appealed to even the most jaded sophisticate. The other tower had the tourist attractionthe observation deckbut when people wanted to feel part of the view, they came to Windows. You'd be mesmerized by the civilization that lay just outside that windowthe harbor, the boroughs, the bridges. Windows felt like New York's crown. When people were up there, they felt like the jewel in the crown." I'll miss being one of those lucky baubles.
Amid all the hideous mayhem, the view from an otherwise shattered Broadway has been improved by the fact that Urinetown just transferred there in hopes of filling the need for someanylightness and buoyancy. Color me superficial again, but since civilized entertainment is as important to me as air and food, I strapped on my Depends and ran there with bells on. Urinetown's not your typical escapist show, mind you. It's about a metropolis whose water shortage prompts an evil tycoon to charge poverty-stricken citizens for the use of public bathrooms. Party? No, but the premise is mainly an excuse to be nudgily clever while relentlessly poking fun at the conventions of the musical genre. (My favorite moment comes when the bound and gagged heroine carries on the choreography anyway.) The show was more surprising in a tiny theater, but it's still a riot of satire and staging, and the let-freedom-ring theme couldn't be timelier. My only complaint about this Three Peepee Opera is that number two is only mentioned once. Is that where Broadway draws the line?
MTV apparently draws it at new boy bandsit's almost impossible to break a cutie combo on the channel these days, especially with its new somber toneso testoster-pop Svengali Lou Pearlman went elsewhere to start up his latest bunch of boppers. His new male group, Natural, is being marketed strictly through Claire's Accessories stores, a plan Pearlman claims has made the band bigger than hair barrettes. I can see why, having met the Naturals and finding thatunlike those other bands, where there's at least one bottle rocket and one survivor of inbreedingthese guys are all scarily attractive and personable. What's more, they really are a bandthey insist they can play instruments and were together for over a year before Pearlman made them into a flashy teeny accessory. In other words, they didn't audition, they just were!
To paraphrase an 'N Sync hit"Bi Bi Bi"my recent remarks about Anne Heche may have been a bit harsh. If she's really sexually label-free, maybe we shouldn't treat her relationship with a man (even a man with a gigunda gay vibe) any less respectfully than we did her lesbian one. And if her dad was label-free (and very twisted), I guess he could have had a wife, boyfriends, and a craving for his tiny daughter too. Anne's life redefines the rules, and we might want to believe her, even if her claims (and alter ego) are from outer space and her memoirs are titled Call Me Crazy.
As for poor Mariah Carey, she bolted the cobweb to do promo, only to find that no one wants promo right now, especially for the deeply misguided Glitter. It's a tawdry compendium of every showbiz cliché ever imaginedevery two seconds, some character emerges to say, "God, you're talented!"that drew derisive guffaws at the press screening last week. (Only the seriously dated shot of the World Trade Center got serious applause.) Mariah plays an '80s dance diva who romances a DJ-producer and misses her mother. She's basically Madonna!

Need help understanding content management. I purchased some items yesterday and used the Install Manager to down load and install. The process seemed to go smoothly but when I opened up DAZ 4.5 there was no new content message and I was unable to find any of my new items under the content tab.
I then went to the available downloads section for my account and proceeded with a manual download and install for each new item. This worked and when I opened DAZ I received the new content message and am able to use my new items.
Later I wondered what happened to the items that the Install Manager had downloaded. I did a file search of my C: drive for one of the items (RasPalace) and found that the Install Manager was installing items to:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library\...
Whereas the manual install is putting them in:
C:\Users\MyName\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio3\content\...
So now I have a bunch of items in two separate locations. Do I need to change some file path settings in either the Install Manager or DAZ? Is there a way to clean up my mess using the data maintenance tool or would I be better off doing a full uninstall – reinstall of both DAZ 4.5 and my content? I also have an older version of DAZ 3 still on my system from a couple years back. Should I unistall it as well? Any help would be much appreciated.

Sorry to hear you have been under the weather. A hospital is no place to be when you're sick. Home IS where the heart is ! Be well.
I spent some time in the hospital back in April and my son decided he needed to do a stand up comedy routine. Although he is probably 25 or so years older then yours. Sons are like that, but we love them. I'm not a fan of hospitals either and have had my share of them. I sure hope that you feel better soon. Just take care of yourself and don't worry about anthing else but yourself. Connie 204ReplyDelete
Hi Kathy, nice to hear that you are home now! There is no better place to recover at home! Take your time and let yourself be pampered. Luckely you have a son with a good feeling of humor!ReplyDelete

I don't know how anyone gets any rest in a hospital with all the activity that goes on day and night. And why is everyone's blood work always normal but yet the hospital is full of sick people. Well anyway it's nice that you are back home. Take care of yourself!ReplyDelete
Glad to see that you are back home - wish you all the best!!ReplyDelete
Kathy, I am glad to hear that you are back home again. Hospitals can be brutal! I laughed until I cried over your son's actions. That is exactly the kind of a trick that my youngest would pull on me. Take care of yourself.ReplyDelete
Glad to read that you're back home! Now take all the time you need to recover and get all your strength back.ReplyDelete
When I'm sick in bed I think and dream about making new quilts, and I find that very relaxing and comforting. I wish you the same!
Take care!
Bless your heart. I'm glad you are better enough to be home and hope your feeling stronger soon!ReplyDelete
Glad you are back home. Wish you were feeling better. Hopefully yu will be up and about son.ReplyDelete
I'm so glad you're home and recuperating! After my son's four hospitalizations last year, I can identify with no resting there. Take care of yourself!ReplyDelete
What a great son! Laughter, right when it's most needed.ReplyDelete
There is nothing like being home--so am glad to hear you are back at home!!! Continue to take good care of yourself and may everything work out well for you.ReplyDelete

Non ti preoccupare troppo, il mondo può aspettare!
Ciao Domenica
I am way behind in my blogs, so missed you going into hospital. I am so sorry you have been ill! Getting home is probably the best medicine you can get!! Don't worry about anything! Get yourself well. That is the main thing!! All the best!ReplyDelete
Good to hear you're back home and have much rest on the agenda!ReplyDelete
It's nice to read you are back home.ReplyDelete
Take good care of yourself, be patient even if that's difficult and the day will come that you are feeling better. Believe me, I have been there myself a few years ago.
I had to laugh about your son's joke, lot's of humor, that kid!!
Warm regards,
Kids will be kids-----no matter their age. Glad you are home and resting, take care. Hugs, BettyLouReplyDelete
Take care of yourself...lots of naps and read a good book! Before you know it, you will be back to your old self (minus a few pounds) if you don't overdo it too soon! Love you son...he would get along with mine!ReplyDelete
Thank you all so much for your lovely thoughts! I tried going out for a bit yesterday and I became exhausted and a little dizzy so I guess I just have to listen to my body and play it by ear. A nap sounds good.ReplyDelete
Get well soon kathy and don't try to overdo things. Getting healthy is more important than anything else at the moment.ReplyDelete
Hope you are so much better SOON!!!!!! Your son gave me a laugh, LOL!!ReplyDelete
Glad to hear you are back home and it doesn't sound as if hospitals are any better in your part of the world than they are "Down Under". I think it is a conspiracy that you don't get any sleep!! Have missed your posts so take care of yourself - one day at a time.ReplyDelete
Sending you lots of healing juju! My philosophy is if you go to the doctor & you're not sick yet, you'll get sick there for sure. Applicable to hospitals as well, I suppose.ReplyDelete
Sounds like something my boys would do. English speech impaired. :-)
I hope by now you are starting to feel better!!ReplyDelete
Hope you are feeling just a little bit better and that you will take things slowly for a while.ReplyDelete
Praying for your speedy recovery! Rest assured that as a member of The American Schoolgirl club, I'm in no hurry to receive this months pattern under these circumstances. You take care of yourself first and foremost.ReplyDelete

Two years after President Obama took office with a pledge to overhaul the nation's health care system, and nearly 10 months after the White House-backed bill became law, well-worn talking points about the overhaul are getting another workout this month.
Pushing to repeal the law, Republicans say the overhaul is a totalitarian government overreach with budget-busting consequences. Counterpunching with a flurry of White House-backed reports, Democrats defend the law as an economic fix full of patient protections.
The charged political atmosphere has renewed -- at least temporarily -- the nation's health care debate, the volume of which had steadily receded since the reform bill passed last March.
But there's a major difference from the 2009-2010 reform fight: Industry stakeholders largely are sitting on the sideline this time. Moreover, many are wishing away the GOP's repeal because it wouldn't benefit the health care sector.
"I see [the repeal effort] as ideologically driven rather than industry-driven," Anthony Wright of Health Access told California Healthline.
Rising Political Momentum, Flagging Industry Support for Repeal
Acknowledging they face an uphill battle, Republicans have promised a two-year repeal campaign beginning with a symbolic House vote on Wednesday. The party also is touting a letter -- signed by 200 economists and health care experts -- charging that the overhaul will hamper job growth and damage the economy. After an influx of new GOP governors this month, more than half of the nation's states now are suing the government over the law's constitutionality.
"Replacing 'ObamaCare' is not something we can accomplish overnight," according to Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.), the new House Energy and Commerce Committee chair. "But mark my words, we will get this done."
Republicans' anti-reform path may be out of step with public opinion. A recent Associated Press-GFK poll found that the percentage of U.S. residents who strongly oppose the federal health reform law has declined to 30%, the lowest rate since September 2009. Meanwhile, just one in four respondents said they want the law struck down, a significant change from a Kaiser Family Foundation review in October 2010 that found surveyed Americans generally supported repeal.
Even leading insurers -- which the White House once painted as the villains who stood to lose the most from health reform -- largely are opposed to rolling back the overhaul. According to Cigna CEO David Cordani, it isn't "in our society's best interest to expend energy in repealing the law ... [after we] expended over a year of sweat equity around the formation of it." Many other insurers have declined to comment.
Breaking Down Where Interest Groups Stand
Health industry stakeholders' silence on repeal is a calculated gamble. Both parties are expected to propose changes to the overhaul in coming months, "so remaining neutral for now is a smart move, according to health care experts," Politico reports.
It's also a decision informed by the bottom line. After investing millions of dollars to lobby officials, the resulting law and early regulations generally benefit each industry segment. While Health Access' Wright noted that a handful of players have found ways to hike profits in the pre-reform environment, that kind of approach "is not sustainable in the long run" and most are adapting to new rules that will stress cost-control and higher quality.
The trade group America's Health Insurance Plans vows that it isn't behind the new repeal effort -- and for good reason, say financial analysts who watch the health insurance industry.
"The worst is behind them," Ipsita Smolinski, president of Capitol Street, told Politico. Between the law's favorable regulations and its expected surge of newly insured patients, "investors know [health insurers] have a pretty viable future," Smolinski added.
Care Providers
Hospital associations ultimately threw their support behind the law, and that hasn't changed in the past year. Many larger hospitals are gearing up to form "accountable care organizations" in hopes of qualifying for the overhaul's new incentive payments. Meanwhile, the National Association for Public Hospitals says the law's investments in prevention and access will help its target population of low-income patients.
The impact on physicians is difficult to quantify, as some specialties stand to gain and others lose. A new Thomson Reuters survey found that most physicians believe health reform will hurt their individual reimbursement.
The National Federation of Independent Business has come out strongly against the law's employer mandate and has joined the multi-state lawsuit against reform. However, NFIB has backed away from its January 2009 study -- based on a hypothesis that was crafted well before the reform law -- that predicted an employer mandate would eliminate 1.6 million jobs between 2009 and 2014. However, the group still concludes that small businesses would be hurt by the law's requirements.
That claim "has no justification," according to Micah Weinberg of the New America Foundation's Health Policy Program. Instead, there's more evidence that the law "will create jobs than that it will eliminate them," Weinberg added.
The Center for American Progress' David Cutler also thinks repeal would be bad for business. Arguing that the law will cut overall health spending, Cutler predicted that up to 400,000 jobs per year could be lost if employers are forced to absorb the system's higher health costs.
Many of the law's early benefits have been framed as patient protections, and an HHS study released on Tuesday goes a step further. According to the report, as many as 129 million U.S. residents under age 65 have pre-existing medical conditions that could cause them to be rejected or charged higher rates by health insurers if the overhaul is rolled back.
AHIP and Republicans have said the study's findings are exaggerated and suggest the law instead diminishes health coverage, particularly for seniors. For example, the overhaul is expected to weaken the popular Medicare Advantage program, which offers expanded benefits like free eyeglasses and gym memberships. John Goodman of the National Center for Policy Analysis said the law's "draconian" cuts to Medicare will force some seniors to lose one-third of their benefits by 2017.
Coming Up Next: Trying to Keep Benefit While Dropping Oversight
No one expects House Republicans' repeal bill to actually advance through the Senate; it's what follows that bears watching.
House Republicans on Thursday will begin examining targeted revisions to the law, as the Judiciary Committee convenes to discuss malpractice reform. Attempts to take the overhaul apart in pieces, such as by repealing the 1099 tax reporting provision, also are ahead. Against this backdrop, industry stakeholders are expected to lobby for specific changes that will preserve the law's benefits to them while weakening oversight of regulations like the medical-loss ratio. It's also possible that the House repeal bill will "embolden governors who have staked out a position against the law to drag their feet," according to Drew Altman, CEO of the Kaiser Family Foundation
California Healthline will track the fight to repeal the reform law as it unfolds in coming months. Meanwhile, here's a roundup of other health reform stories making news across the nation.

Jesters do oft prove prophets.
— William Shakespeare: King Lear
In almost half a century of serious writing on the works of prolific Port Arthur-born artist Robert Rauschenberg, the notion of its populist appeal is a common tenet: an understanding that his works—voluminous paintings, sculpture, performance and every combination thereof—use the flotsam and jetsam of civilization as their media, junk that didn't have a place in fine art before he came along. There's a philosophy there, to be sure, one that can be pointedly argued or tossed-off, criticized or analyzed until God is found among the magazine cut-outs, Coke bottles and cardboard boxes, and common man has been granted immortality. And perhaps this next observation is merely an extension of its accessibility, but have you ever noticed how funny Rauschenberg's art is? Visual jokes and wordplay abound. Maybe this is because the artist didn't see a real painting until he was 19 years old and chooses to recall this humility in humor, or the fact that he's so dyslexic that words can easily swap letters and become gibberish, communicating to everyone but him. No matter where it originates though, the hidden witticism and surface slapstick found across the board in Rauschenberg's art does its own part to relate to everyone's sensibility. Like a poem one finally 'gets,' or an inside joke we've been let in on, the feeling of communication through art is as powerful as any profound truth.
So toss aside all the hoity-toity notions that one of the greatest American artists of all time should indeed inspire, and take the tour of the retrospective in Houston—one so big it takes up space in all three of the city's museums—laughing. With this in mind I suggest you stir things up by going through the exhibit backwards and topsy turvy, starting upstairs at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston ( MFAH), on to the Menil Collection, the Contemporary Arts Museum ( CAM), and then back to the MFAH for the downstairs exhibit of Rauschenberg's most recent works. Be sure to look beyond the colors and read between the lines for, well, just for fun.
Begin the tour upstairs at the Museum of Fine Arts ( MFAH)
Gallery of the subconscious
I suggest you start here, upstairs at the MFAH, at The 1/4 mile or 2 Furlong Piece, because it serves as an incredible timeline of Rauschenberg's work, and you can preview an overview of his progression as an artist before you take a deeper look at the separate stages of his career. The 1/4 mile or 2 Furlong Piece is as yet unfinished (when done it just may extend beyond the 1,320 feet that its title implies), but it occupies an impressive space already, weaving mazelike down one wall and up another, leaving street signs, traffic lights and stacks and stacks of library books in its colorful wake.
The 1/4 Mile or 2 Furlong Piece

Rauschenberg began the piece in 1981, and continues to work on it between other projects. Furlong has a calculated autobiographical nature: Rauschenberg has been making art since the late 40s, and has recounted his own history here by going back in style and subject farther than the year of the work's inception. How is it funny? It's as silly as a red trough filled with what looks like milk, a jug floating atop the white liquid; the physical humor of a fat ass plopped down and spread across a bench, and as awkward as the rudimentary human forms we trace of ourselves in kindergarten class. A friend described the work as a gallery of the subconscious, a playing out of the noise in your head you never listen to. It forces us to examine the things we cast aside. Rauschenberg offers a soundtrack to this chaos, suggesting we should be open minded to the combination of many elements in his art, voices and songs coming from everywhere and yet apparently without source. There are no titles or explanations provided, allowing Furlong to speak to each of us individually.
Andy Warhol was inspired by Rauschenberg, and in Rauschenberg's use of cardboard boxes, coke bottles, newspaper clippings, patterned fabric, and lithograph collages of celebrities and politicians of the times, it is easy to see how. But Rauchenberg merely lets these things interact with each other without elevating them to star status. Library books do just what they're supposed to, lay around in stacks until someone picks them up for a read. But maybe they're laying around because they've been intentionally unreturned to the library whose name is stamped on the edge of every single one. There's a sense of the mischievous implied here, a vision of books that with Rauschenberg's help, have escaped their dusty shelves in a stuffy little library to participate in a grand visual showcase of culture. And they're chuckling at how their ordinary bindings and dated titles are forming towers that people are craning to view, their pages full of words suddenly less important than the smooth lines and regal height created by their assemblage. The only thing that may be onto them is the silkscreened image of a rooster juxtaposed throughout the piece. I doubt either will ever go back to their ordinary selves.

Goofing in the Fifties
The Menil collection houses Rauschenberg's earliest works, and now that the Furlong Piece has presented us with the artist's rendition of where he came from and where he's going, it makes sense to go back for the non-revisionist history. The maturity with which Rauschenberg interjects humor into his work from the very beginning, both slapstick and profound, is remarkable; hilarious visual imagery and word play are mutually essential in finding

Behind the cool art and bizarre story is a fun, addictive and challenging RPG with great gameplay systems and a lot more variety and choice than most of today's, cinema-heavy RPGs. Games rarely stray this far off the beaten path and actually work out so well, making Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne a must for the adventurous RPG fan.
What I love about Nocturne is that the game forces you to play intelligently all throughout. At no point do you feel as if you are taking a backseat to the story or the occurrences on-screen. Absent-mindedly progressing through every battle will bring you straight to the Game Over screen. You have to strategize to be able to get through the game.
A rare title that manages to do most everything right. Gamers who have been craving a dark, mature RPG experience will find satiation this fall when Nocturne is released stateside. [JPN Import]
Atlus has taken advantage of the PS2's capabilities to the utmost, with just the right ratio of puzzles and side quests to plot advancement to keep both novices and veterans of the series happy.
The gameplay is pure "old school" and makes no apologies for it. Without a doubt, this is a "Love It or Hate It" game. If you can weather a challenge, then be sure to invest in this title.
It's good because it offers some refreshing gameplay, lots of variety, and a sublime world in which to conquer or destroy. It may even represent the evolution of the role-playing game genre, which has needed a shot in the arm for years now.
With an imaginative story, characters rich in personality, a beautiful design, and an impressive array of themes to explore, this game shines in a genre that already knows how to make video games the best they can be. I can't recommend it enough.
Quibbles aside, Gamestyle would be hard-pressed to name a better RPG it has experienced on the current crop of consoles.
One of the best RPGs to come out in a long time. It's an amazing game that blends shades of grey with capable gameplay.
This game truly has multiple paths with multiple choices to make that can affect the conclusion of the game.
Ultimately, Lucifer's Call is a brave RPG and for that, it deserves both your admiration and your gaming time.
The game constantly kicked my ass, but the content is so good that it just motivated me to try harder. [Nov 2004, p.122]
One of the best and most refreshing console RPGs to come out in years, and is definitely a worthy candidate for RPG of the year.
While Nocturne is slightly flawed because of its straightforward battles and disappointing sound quality, it is a flame that will hopefully reignite a trend of creativity in RPG storytelling and concepts.
Highly recommended for a fan of the genre, someone who loves the gothic style of gaming or just anyone who wants to add another Dante-related game into their collection. Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne is a must have.
An entertaining and highly atmospheric, although at times extremely challenging, RPG. The interesting storyline and deep gameplay make it one of the best RPG titles on PS2 this year. [Sept. 05]

Jan 20, 2015I don't always review a game with a perfect score, but when I do I love to submerge myself in the sinister atmosphere of Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne.

Some of the best fun I had on the PS2. This game is like a demonic version of Pokemon *lol* Not to mention the brilliant cameo by DMC's Dante.
But I will say the game's narrative felt a bit barren, almost non-existent. But still, the action is great, and experimenting with fusions to get the best creatures and move sets really make this game stand out.
Overall: Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne is a really different kind of game that seems tailor made for Pokemon fans who are looking for something a bit more mature.… Full Review »

1,606 listeners
Black Umfolosi are a multi-discipline performing arts group, based in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. The group began as a means of entertaining themselves while still at school in 1982. They have since become an internationally acclaimed harmonic acappella singing and traditional African dance group. the original six members have developed their skills and their organization to a point where the now 18 members provide a multitude of services in the performing arts industry in Zimbabwe and internationally. Compared to the likes of Lady Smith Black Mambazo of South Africa, Black Umfolosi, tour extensively from their homeland Zimbabwe to the UK, Australia, Asia, Europe, Canada and the USA. They have released a number of recordings that feature singing styles of imbube, mbaqanga and township songs. Their dynamic live performances showcase the traditional dancing styles of the Southern African region as well as the more contemporary styles and movements they develop themselves. Black Umfolosi is much more than a performing group; they are active in training others, particularly the youth, in dance and voice. They try to identify and develop up and coming groups and mentor them along their path to success. They provide workshops and residences in dance, voice, theatre, costume design, poetry, mime and also address various issues affecting society today. In short, Black Umfolosi are a community driven organization aiming to give back to people what they themselves have received.

Competition is set to heat up in the domestic small car segment, with a number of players entering the fray, but Hyundai Motor India Ltd. (HMIL) asserts that it is prepared to defend and move up its position in the market place.
It has already initiated a combination of actions to secure its hold on the Indian marketplace. Currently, it has a 20 per cent share in the domestic market. Addressing his maiden press conference since his elevation as the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of HMIL here on Tuesday, H.W. Park said the R&D (research and development) centre of its parent in Korea was working on developing a small car for India. The still-to-be-developed small car would be smaller than its top selling Santro, and probably cheaper as well.
Significantly, the small car development and production could entail an investment of a minimum Rs.800 crore, according to Arvind Saxena, Senior Vice-President (Marketing & Sales). Hyundai declined to divulge further details about the car, which is in the design stage. "Initially, it will be targeted at India. Gradually, however, it will also be exported," Saxena said.
Mr. Park asserted that HMIL would continue to focus on the domestic market. India, he said, remained a key market for Hyundai. Mr. Park said the year 2009 has been a landmark year for HIML with record monthly sales. He said HMIL would boost its dealer network by expanding the footprint to 320 from the current 274. ``We are looking ahead to provide a new bench-mark in customer service,'' he said. Mr. Saxena said HMIL would focus on new products, improved network and product promotion to secure its share in the marketplace. He admitted that the Government-initiated stimulus packages did help to drive demand. He, however, felt that "fundamentally the demand is also getting stronger."
Mr. Park said HMIL would churn out 5.6 lakh cars from its two units this year. The two plants have a combined production capacity of six lakh units. He was confident that the capacity use at these plants next year would also be similar to the current year's utilization. Mr. Saxena expects the industry to post a 14-15 per cent growth this year.

NeTegrity to ship first release of SiteMinder Authentication Server.
Teams With Major Interoperability Partners
NeTegrity, Inc., (NASDAQ: NETE, Boston Stock Exchange: NTY) a leading provider of next-generation security products and services for data and voice networking applications, today announced it will begin OEM and direct customer shipments of the SiteMinder Authentication Server, the first phase of its pioneering enterprise-wide network security management system. Currently, The Boston Globe is a charter user of the product. NeTegrity also said it has agreed with major interoperability vendors to promote open architecture in the network security arena. These partners include Ascend Communications, BBN Planet, Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., Cisco Systems, Inc., and Raptor Systems, Inc.
The SiteMinder Authentication Server, the first available component of the SiteMinder product family, is the only open, standards-based security server to provide centralized verification of the identities of people accessing corporate networks and applications across an enterprise. Through its Web-based interface and robust underlying architecture, the SiteMinder Authentication Server supports multiple authentication schemes and tokens, and the security solution provides a single point of user identification for both communications servers and firewalls. Built on the industry-standard RADIUS protocol, the SiteMinder Server boasts "from-the-ground-up" integration with Microsoft's Windows NT.
As a charter user of the SiteMinder product family, The Boston Globe is expected to deploy the network security capabilities of the product. "We brought SiteMinder in because we think the product will do for network security managers what network management stations did for network managers," said Kai Lee, Manager of Networks and Communications at the Globe Newspaper Company.
Because of the SiteMinder standards-based architecture, scalability, flexible and centralized auditing and administration capabilities, Fortune 1000 companies seeking to protect mission critical information are increasingly viewing the product as a core component of their Internet/intranet and overall network security solutions.
"This first release of the SiteMinder Authentication Server signifies the beginning of a new era in enterprise security management," said Barry Bycoff, NeTegrity's CEO. "As mission critical data becomes more vulnerable, Fortune 1000 companies are growing increasingly aware of the importance of secure networking solutions that integrate existing, heterogeneous network access devices, such as firewalls and communications servers, employ standard protocols, scale with the organization, and combine distributed management with centralized control. We are truly excited to fulfill our promise to deliver a pioneering security technology for the next decade."
Additionally, with the SiteMinder Authentication Server now commercially available, NeTegrity is launching its interoperability partnership program to assure an open security architecture across the industry. To date, NeTegrity has developed strategic interoperability agreements. These include Ascend Communications, BBN Planet, Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., Cisco Systems, Inc., and Raptor Systems, Inc. In each agreement, the partner is working closely with NeTegrity to insure that mutual customers can benefit from the open, scalable, and low-cost operation of the SiteMinder architecture.
Partners support for the SiteMinder Authentication Server
"We are excited to be working with NeTegrity, Inc., a leading provider of network security solutions, to ensure the interoperability of our Max dial-up servers with SiteMinder," said Doug LaBord, product manager of the security division at Ascend Communications. "Together these products provide our mutual customers with the highest level of dependability and security for running mission critical remote access systems."
"NeTegrity's SiteMinder offers leading-edge technology for remote authentication such as multiple domains, flexible security and Web-based administration tools," said Jane Eisenberg, general manager of dial and security services at BBN Planet. "By testing and certifying SiteMinder with BBN's DiaLinx remote access service, NeTegrity and BBN can now offer our mutual customers a state-of-the-art solution for secure dialup Internet and intranet access."
"We are pleased to be working with NeTegrity, Inc. to ensure the interoperability of Check Point FireWall-1 with SiteMinder through Check Point's OPSEC enterprise security framework," said Asheem Chandna, vice president of business development for Check Point Software Technologies, Inc. "These two products provide our mutual customers with a dependable, secure solution for running mission-critical remote access systems. SiteMinder's RADIUS server support for multiple authentication styles and remote administration make it a natural fit for user authentication management in heterogeneous firewall and dial-up environments."
"Based on our interoperability testing with the PIX Firewall, we see excellent synergy with NeTegrity's SiteMinder, which provides customers with the valuable combination of multiple remote user authentication and management servers plus Cisco's industry-leading PIX Firewall performance via its Cut-Through Proxy technology." said Frank Roys, marketing director of the Internet Appliance & Applications Business Unit at Cisco Systems, Inc. "Now remote users will get no-wait internet access for business transactions requiring secure access to corporate data."
"Raptor has always maintained its aggressive support of open standards for information security," said Lance Urbas, Raptor's vice president of product marketing and technical services. "Our shared support with NeTegrity for RADIUS authentication technology ensures end users with interoperable solutions for building robust network security policies and practices."
The SiteMinder Authentication Server is the first phase of NeTegrity's comprehensive set of open, integrated enterprise network security management tools. The company's next product release, the SiteMinder Authorization Server, is expected to begin shipping later this year. The forthcoming product will be fully compatible with the Authentication Server, and will give security managers unprecedented visibility and central control of remote and local user access to network application resources. Pricing for the SiteMinder Authentication Server begins at $2,995 for a 50 user-license.
