An encounter with a couple who visited the Hankey Center in search of information about the man's mother, a 1941 Wilson College graduate who died recently, is exactly the sort of thing archivist Leigh Rupinski loves about her job.
She helped the couple find a variety of materials – yearbooks, class photos, scrapbooks, articles – that painted a picture of the woman's years at Wilson. "They were thrilled to find out what her life would have been like at Wilson," said Rupinski, who began her job as college archivist on Oct. 21.
As a history enthusiast who volunteered at libraries when she was younger, Rupinski enjoys being able to work with books and archival collections, while also helping people.
"The point of having all this stuff is so people can come in and use it," she said.
The 24-year-old Grand Rapids, Michigan, native graduated last spring from the University of Michigan School of Information, where she earned a master's degree in information. She got her undergraduate degree in English language and literature from Grand Valley State University, also in Michigan.
Rupinski, who worked in both universities' archives, has training and experience using digital collection management software to organize archival materials and display images of them online. She is also well-versed in creating "finding aids," which help users find what they're searching for in an archival collection.
The job at Wilson "was exactly what I was looking for," said Rupinski. "I like working in an academic setting. There is a lot of opportunity to work with the collection in different ways. Digitizing, preparing exhibits, handling the materials. This is a little bit of everything, which makes for a more exciting day."
There was a time when Rupinski knew virtually nothing about what an archivist does. That changed in her junior year in college, when her history professor recommended that she look into the profession. "I didn't really know what I wanted to do and he felt that archives would line up with my interests," she said. "I followed his advice and I was really happy I did."
Besides continuing to catalog materials in Wilson's C. Elizabeth Boyd '33 Archives, Rupinski wants to continue digitizing archival materials so they can be shared online, and also plans to increase and improve finding aids so it will be easier to locate specific subject matter.

i dunno that art can be measured.
i personally wouldn't consider Picasso art, but everyone else begs to differ
Not being measurable was my point. It's like asking which is better "red" or "green"? The answer is totally subjective.
Personally I'm looking for a sap that loves green and I'll sell him a bag of lawn cuttings sprayed onto framed piece of flypaper.
My criteria for liking art are: "does it show talent or persistence?" If so, then the creator deserves some kudos. My best example of non-art is Miro's giant, ragged, hand painted red circle on an otherwise blank canvas that I saw in a big Texas museum. Laughing all the way to the bank with that one he was.
Twenty-some years ago I was in the Smithsonian Fine Art museum (or Modern Art museum- I don't remember what it was called). I ran across a 'work' that consisted of two canvases, both about 5 feet square. One was semi-gloss black, the other semi-gloss white; about 9 inches in from the left on each was a lavender stripe not quite two inches wide, running top to bottom. I looked at it (them), and thought "This is art? Someone would pay for this? This looks stupid." Five times, over the course of the day; I couldn't stay away, it kept drawing me back.
I'm reluctant to say "this isn't art", especially when (however inexplicably) a piece does what art's supposed to do. And in this day'n'age it's not really surprising that art made with high-tech supplies is starting to draw critical acclaim and big money.
I'd say the piece in question (which looks like a lot more work went into it than just load-pose-render), as a high-quality print with a limited run, could easily be worth a few hundred on the open market. $12,000?!? Not from me! But it's not to my taste.
I don't know. It seems like there's a lot of snobbery out there that if it wasn't done on paper or canvas or fresco or marble or some other traditional medium, it's not art. :(

Improve your second life
12 March 2010
Are you a Second Life resident looking to get a bit more out of your virtual world? If so, join Sheila Yoshikawa at 20.00 (13.00 Second Life time) on March 18 on Sheffield University's Second Life island, Infolit ischool, for hints and tips on searching, shopping and sightseeing. The event is part of the Economic and Social Research Council's (ESRC) Festival of Social Science which runs from the 12 to the 21 of March 2010.
The event will start with short presentations by Sheila Webber (aka Sheila Yoshikawa), Senior Lecturer in the Department of Information Studies, Sheffield University and two of her colleagues, Prof Jackie Marsh (aka Jackie Darkstone) and Dr Julia Davies (aka Dr Joolz Smythe), who will talk about some of their research on improving general knowledge and ability in using computer technology. The event will inform the attending avatars, how they can apply these findings to help them get the most out of the Second Life experience.
Sheila's presentation will draw on the results of interviews carried out by some of her students at the Infolit ischool, in which they asked people what steps they took when they needed to find information for an activity in Second Life. The activities ranged from simple retail searches such as trying to find a bunk bed to recreate a student dorm in Second Life to struggling with finding the programming steps needed to stream music successfully.
"By looking at the different ways people used the communication and social networking tools available on Second Life, we've been able to determine strategies that work for finding different sorts of information," says Sheila: "So if, say, you want to buy a house, we know one successful strategy is to start your search by looking at some of the houses in Second Life and then click on one you like the look of. That will bring up all sorts of information about who made the house, whether they sell houses (or perhaps even give them away), and whether they have a shop."
Jackie Darkstone and Dr Joolz Smythe will also share some of their research findings with a focus on helping your avatar to dress in the latest Second Life fashion. The presentations will be held in an informal outdoor setting and there will be opportunities for participants to share their own experiences and any hints and tips that others might find useful.
There will also be a chance to get a virtual ice cream from the IS (Information Services) Cream Van, a novel tool developed at Edinburgh University to support distance learners, not only with ice cream but also with useful information and contacts.
Following the presentations, participants can take a guided tour to a mystery location: "We might be shopping or perhaps sightseeing. We haven't decided yet but it will be an opportunity for everyone to try out their new skills," says Sheila.
The event is open to all Second Life residents although it would help if you have a little experience of Second Life and already know how to move about and communicate.
Second Life residents who would like to attend this event are asked to register online, where you will need to join the Ning (a social networking site). Then, on the day, this SLURL (link) will take you directly to the event.

Weekend Link Roundup (October 11-12, 2014)
October 12, 2014
Our weekly roundup of noteworthy items from and about the nonprofit sector....
On the Kauffman Founders School blog, Neil Patel explains why email marketing trumps social media.
Although he's primarily talking about news, Robinson Meyer, an associate editor at The Atlantic, explains how social media has become the new press release, with lessons for all of us.
Giving Pledge
According to this short Bloomberg TV segment, Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim Helú, the second richest man in the world, will not be signing the Giving Pledge anytime soon.
In the second installment of a two-part series on the Markets for Good site, Peter York, the founder/CEO of Algorhythm, an "impact science organization that combines social science, outcome measurement, next generation analytics and technology to place highly accurate and actionable insights into the hands of social change agents,"argues that it's "time for the social sector to try out the method that medicine, psychology, business, economics and ecology have been using for a long time: the observational cohort study (OCS)."
Crain's Chicago Business has a good article about a group of investors led by Chicago billionaire J.B. Pritzker that plans to invest $16.9 million in "an innovative financing scheme that allows Chicago to expand pre-kindergarten programs for more than 2,000 low-income children over the next four years." According to the Chronicle of Philanthropy, this is the fifth social impact bond to be announced in the U.S.

Closing the door on Inouye era

Daniel Inouye, Hawaii's champion and our grandest statesman.But as his Honolulu office quietly shuts its doors for the last time, it is a renewed reminder of the depth of that loss. To the senator, his staff was his family, and their loyalty was just as strong. They remained by his side for decades, collectively accumulating a depth of legislative and political knowledge that was unmatched. Login for more...

Two apartments were destroyed after a fire tore through a building in the Brookeville Garden complex Monday morning.
The fire broke out at apartment 25A at approximately 7:27 a.m. Starkville Fire Department was on the scene by 7:34 a.m., and crews had the fire under control within 15 minutes. The fire was completely put out by 9 a.m.
Investigators determined the cause of the fire was a wall heater that
"One of the occupants smelled smoke, got up to investigate and found that a curtain had caught on fire," Chief Rodger Mann said.
A chained gate had to be opened before the fire trucks could enter the neighborhood, but Mann said it did not cause any significant delay for the firefighters.
"We've known about that gate and they knew about it going into it today," he said. "We were consulted about the gate a few years ago and the benefit it has far outweighs the short delay it could cause."
The apartment sustained extensive smoke, fire and heat damage. The fire also spread to the upstairs apartment, which also sustained fire and heat damage. All four apartments in the building were water damaged as the fire was put out by firefighting crews. Residents were evacuated, and no injuries were reported.
"This is the time of year that we'll see an increase in fires," Mann said. "We need to make sure that everyone has a working smoke detector that will alert your family to any fires. It is important that you check the smoke detectors, especially during this time of year when we have an increased demand for heat."
Mann recommends keeping space heaters clear of any flammable materials, including holiday decorations, furniture, curtains and chemicals.

The News That Makes You Think… 05.05.14
Video: Watch Shocked Students React to Hillary Clinton's Previous Position on Same-Sex 'Marriage'
1st openly gay Episcopal bishop to divorce husband
The first openly gay Episcopal bishop, who became a symbol for gay rights far beyond the church while deeply dividing the world's Anglicans, plans to divorce his husband.
Bishop Gene Robinson has never been fully accepted within the more than 70 million-member Anglican Communion, which is rooted in the Church of England and represented in the United States by the Episcopal Church.
Robinson announced the end of his marriage to Mark Andrew in an email sent to the Diocese of New Hampshire, where he served for nine years before retiring in 2012.
OK, first the pink elephant in the room. All of you "bigoted," "homophobic," "anti-gay" opponents of "marriage equality" who happen to live in "marriage reality," please join me as we set aside, for the moment, the inescapable cognitive dissonance associated with the Huxleyan turn of phrase: "plans to divorce his husband."

I'd been living in the building for six years, washing clothes once a week, which means I'd worked that dryer over 300 times. I am a spin-drying genius. "Thank you so much," I smiled at her, swallowing back the words, "and you're a sexist."
Would I have preferred her to know who I am — a househusband, a homeboy, the man of the housekeeping? Or would I have found that emasculating?
My wife and I made a deal 12 years ago. I would leave my office job to pursue my dream of getting a novel published, taking on freelance work (I compile crosswords) while writing fiction. But I would be earning less than before. In return, I would look after the house.

News That Makes You Think… 05.01.14
BROUGHT TO YOU BY: DoMuchGood.com
The 63rd annual religious event is today, Thursday. The theme is, "One Voice, United in Prayer."A factor behind this year's theme was a bus tour last year that included 34 states and 420 prayer events. Dion Elmore of the National Day of Prayer Task Force was on that tour and says people were challenged to pray for our nation with one voice. "Unity was the cry of the heart of the people that we encountered," she recalls. "It seemed like every city we went into people were crying out for unity within the body of Christ because they see the importance of it and see the word of God and what it says about unity." The National Day of Prayer focuses on encouraging people to pray over the seven centers of influence as developed by Bill Bright and others. More @ OneNewsNow Thorn-coated bushes, rock-covered terrain, scorching temperatures. A hissing rattlesnake. These are just few of the many perils Mexican migrants crossing the Southern Arizona desert encounter every day. And far more of them will attempt to cross this summer, the U.S. Border Patrol predicts. The agency unveiled its plans Wednesday for dealing with the problem of immigrants dying in the desert, including 10 new beacons that allow migrants to call for help at the push of a red button. The agency is also adding new hoisting systems on helicopters to rescue immigrants. More@AZFamily Houston police held a special news conference Wednesday to talk about two particularly clumsy criminals wanted for firing shots inside a north Houston lingerie business. "I have to say that in the seven years that I've been investigating robberies, these are by far some of the clumsiest crooks that I've seen in a long time," said Jeff Brieden, Houston Police Department. The suspects were among three men who walked into a Katz's Boutique in the 9800 block of the North Freeway on April 13. It was around 3 a.m. and surveillance cameras were rolling. Police say two of the men had weapons. The suspect with the revolver apparently bumped into the suspect with the rifle, causing the rifle to discharge. "Which then spooked both the suspects," Officer Brieden said. Both men began shooting, and police believe they thought they were being fired upon. Nearly a dozen rounds were discharged. In reality, all the gunfire was coming from them. Investigators say that is what makes them so dangerous. "Because of how unpredictable they were during the robbery," Brieden said. "And just discharging their weapons so freely in any direction; this case easily could have turned into a capital murder." More@KHOU While millions of Jews and others around the world mournfully observed Holocaust Remembrance Day Monday, news erupted that Kerry, the White House's chief foreign diplomat, said the Jewish state could become an "apartheid state" if it doesn't allow for the creation of a Palestinian state. Likening Israel's co-existence with terrorist-tied Palestinians to the decades-long conflict between native Africans and white Dutch in South Africa is absurd and highly offensive to politicians and leaders from every side. "That was is an incredibly offensive comment, given the historical background of the modern state of Israel," Campaign for Working Families founder Gary Bauer says regarding Kerry's remark. "The modern Jewish state emerged in 1948 out of the ashes of the Holocaust – the horrific consequences of Adolf Hitler's 'apartheid state' in Nazi Germany." Bauer contends that Kerry's apartheid comment was no mistake. More@OneNewsNow Tennessee has become the first state in the nation to pass a law criminalizing women for their pregnancy outcomes. Republican Gov. Bill Haslam took the 10 days allotted to him to consider the advice of doctors, addiction experts and reproductive health groups urging him to veto the punitive and dangerous measure that allows prosecutors to charge a woman with criminal assault if she uses illegal drugs during her pregnancy and her fetus or newborn is considered harmed as a result. Haslam ignored these recommendations — and the recommendations of nearly every major medical association, including the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy — and signed the measure anyway. Opponents of the new law share a concern that a lack of access to health care and treatment facilities will result in the disproportionate targeting and jailing of poor mothers and mothers of color, particularly in rural districts throughout the state.

If you are making a web application with users registering your server will have to run constantly and probably store to a DB...so implicitly real time. As far as what you would write such a site in - I think Java/J2EE, Ruby, or the new and hot Node.JS are all viable, along with numerous others.

Toshiba Satellite C50-AI0110t

Reviews for the Toshiba Satellite C50-AI0110t
Source: Techtree.com
The Toshiba C50-A Toshiba Satellite C50-A I0110t exhibits decent performance in office applications and multimedia operations, but it falters a bit at multitasking. Its display quality is nothing to write home about, but it is nevertheless as responsive as you would expect of a Windows 8 capacitive multi-touch screen. The large 15.6"screen size makes it ideal as a desktop replacement, rather than an Ultrabook that can be carried around, as it is too heavy and bulky for that. The battery backup time ought to have been better with such a high-capacity 6-cell battery especially since there is no discrete graphics. Probably its only saving grace is its affordable price tag of Rs 40,656, which at this price you usually get a non-touchscreen laptop with similar or better configuration.
Single Review, online available, Long, Date: 09/03/2013
Rating: Total score: 60% price: 80% performance: 60% features: 60% workmanship: 60%
The rise of Windows 8 has caused a flourishing crop of touchscreen laptops to spring up. In the case of the Toshiba Satellite C50-AI0110t the 15 inch responsive touchscreen is one of the delightful features. It looks great, with a decently built polymer body that looks like aluminum, but surface collects fingerprints too well. The hinges are nice and sturdy, and will not flop around during touchscreen input. The Toshiba Satellite C50-AI0110t is not the most portable device out there, weighing in at 2.38 kg. The screen resolution of 1366x768 may be disappointing to some, but at this price point, it is decent enough. The full keyboard is comfortable to use, as is the responsive touchpad.
Powered by an Intel Core i3-2348M with 2.3 GHz, 4GB of RAM, and Intel's integrated HD Graphics 3000 GPU, the Toshiba Satellite C50-AI0110t can handle most light everyday tasks and casual gaming, but it is easily possible to slow the machine down with too many browser tabs and programs running. Considering the low performance, it is surprising that the battery does not last long. Expect approximately 5 hours of normal moderate to light use. At the end of the day, the Toshiba Satellite C50-AI0110t is a heavy, underpowered, yet cheap machine. The main selling point would be the touchscreen, but at this price range it would make more sense to go for a more powerful machine without touchscreen.
Intel HD Graphics 4000: Processor graphics card in the high end Ivy Bridge models. Offers a different clock speed in the different CPU models (ULV to desktop quad core) and therefore a different performance.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

14.0": 14 inch display size is a mixture between the small formats of subnotebooks and the 15 inch standard display. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.

Recreational Vehicle Camping In Wisconsin
You will find a lot more than Cows and Cheese when looking for RV camping locations in Wisconsin. Wisconsin offers great scenery, solitude, and outdoor recreation opportunities for the whole family. From RV resorts, to basic service public campgrounds, there is something for everyone in Wisconsin.
Free camping ideas follow Wisconsin RV camping resources.
Wisconsin Resources for RV Camping Information
RV Camping pages with more information
We recommend the Wisconsin Atlas & Gazetteer to find RV camping locations. This Wisconsin topographic atlas offers comprehensive detail including trails, back country roads, lakes and streams, boat ramps, forests, wetlands, campgrounds, public lands, and hunting and fishing locations. Information about family trips, wilderness outing possibilities, and more are included. Put that together with DeLorme Topo 6.0 Software and you have a versatile set of tools to find RV camping sites all across Wisconsin.
Wisconsin Free CampingFree dispersed RV camping (boondocking) is permitted in Wisconsin National Forests. Click on the above links for more information.
BRUCE - On US-8, city park W of town. Water & elect. Flush toilets.
WESTFIELD - Exit I-51 at Westfield. Go W toward town. Take 1st right, follow signs to park. Several spots, electric only. Free-flowing artesian next to site. Self registration. $3/night.
More Free RV Camping IdeasHere's a list of places to consider when looking for a free overnight RV camping or parking location in Wisconsin. We always recommend asking for overnight RV parking permission when looking for a free spot to spend the night. The smaller your RV, the better chances you will have finding places to stay if you choose not to ask permission. If you don't ask permission, you end up "sneaking" into places and hoping nobody bothers you or issues you a trespassing ticket before you move on.
Be smart and Be Safe...Ask Permission.
As you can see, there are a lot of free RV camping and parking possibilities in Wisconsin. If you are not asking permission, it's best to keep a very low profile. If your RV has slide outs, jacks and TV antennas, don't use them so as not to draw attention to yourself. Consider your surroundings carefully and if you feel uncomfortable with the area, move somewhere else.
Public lands offer great RV camping in Wisconsin. State, Federal, and private campgrounds have basic service campsites with picnic tables and fire rings, to full hookup RV resorts. Free dispersed camping (boondocking) is available in Wisconsin National Forests. Use the links to the public lands websites above for specific information about camping and public lands access. Research and explore, and you should have no trouble finding the best campsites.

New data on faculty tenure inaccurately reports UW System has highest tenure rate in nation
The timing could not be worse for new state-by-state faculty tenure rates to be released by the National Center for Education Statistics.
Not just because tenure protection is a hot-button higher education issue in Wisconsin, but because the fall 2013 numbers incorrectly suggest the University of Wisconsin System has the highest percentage of full-time faculty with tenure protection in the nation, followed by public universities in Rhode Island, Minnesota, New Hampshire and Maine.
Minnesota's public universities had the distinction of the highest faculty tenure rate in 2011 – 72% – compared to Wisconsin's 48.7%. (The 2012 numbers were not required to be reported.) »Read Full Blog Post

Cristo Rey school names 23 businesses that will employ its freshmen
A total of 23 Milwaukee-area businesses have agreed to employ 14-year-old students in full-time jobs this coming school year, as part of a partnership with a new Catholic high school opening in West Milwaukee.
Cristo Rey High School is an unusual type of college-prep, Jesuit high school that only enrolls low-income students, and has them work at businesses five days a month to help contribute to the cost of their own tuition. The work experiences expose students to what life is like after high school, and help them build critical skills.

Teacher death casts a pall over Clement Avenue graduation
When eighth-graders graduate from Clement Avenue School on Thursday, a void will be felt.
Mary Balogh, who taught middle-school social studies at the K-8 school in Bay View, would have been there presenting awards, a parent said. She would have been on the class trip to Chicago on Wednesday as well.
Instead, students will mourn her loss on a day that would otherwise be pure celebration.
Balogh's funeral is Thursday.
Her unexpected death last week came as a shock to her family, friends and school community.
"She went above and beyond the call of duty as a teacher," said her fiance, Nick Voss. "She spent a lot of money out of her pocket for students and materials; she went that extra mile for kids. She was the most wonderful person I've ever known."
Balogh, 49, had been teaching since 1989 and had been at Clement Avenue for the past 16 years. She was aspiring to be a school leader, Voss said.
Balogh didn't show up to teach last Thursday, prompting coworkers to go to her house. According to a medical examiner's report, Balogh died of apparently natural causes while getting ready that morning, though a toxicology report is pending.
When she wasn't in school, Balogh was an avid world traveler, racking up trips to countries in Europe, Asia and South America. She was also a fan of spending time up north in Wisconsin, her family said.
Linda Krueger, Clement Avenue PTO President, said Balogh was in charge of student council and that kids frequently ate lunch in her class. Both her daughters had Balogh as a teacher.
She said eighth-grade students are planning a tribute to Balogh during their graduation ceremony Thursday.
UWM chancellor to work with faculty on developing tenure policy for campus
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Chancellor Mark Mone sent a campuswide email Wednesday, announcing that a faculty working group will develop recommendations for new tenure policies and procedures.
The move follows the lead of UW-Madison Chancellor Rebecca Blank, who said Monday that she will work with a faculty group on tenure policies and layoff proedures that would be put in place if tenure protections are dropped from state law, as expected.
The policies each campus come up with would need to be approved by the UW System Board of Regents. »Read Full Blog Post
Wisconsin Dems in Congress introduce resolution touting Wisconsin Idea
Wisconsin Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives took a jab at Gov. Scott Walker on Wednesday, introducing a resolution to protect and commemorate the Wisconsin Idea as fundamental to the University of Wisconsin System's mission.
The resolution — introduced by Rep. Ron Kind and co-signed by Reps. Mark Pocan and Gwen Moore — notes that the Wisconsin Idea promotes the value of giving back both inside and outside the classroom.
Walker was accused in February of trying to kill the Wisconsin Idea, which has guided the mission of the state's public higher education system for more than a century. »Read Full Blog Post

Former top MPS administrator to enter 'Charter School Hall of Fame'

Two Hmong Peace Academy students win full-ride Gates scholarships
Two of six Wisconsin students that won prestigious, full-ride college scholarships aimed at boosting low-income students of color are from Hmong American Peace Academy, a Milwaukee charter school.
Kia Vue and Nhia Vang were two of 1,000 students that won Gates Millennium Scholars nationwide in the Class of 2015, according to a news release. The scholarships, funded by a $1.6 billion grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, allow low-income African American, Indian, Alaskan Native, Asian and Hispanic students with good grades and leadership potential to pursue degrees at the colleges of their choice.
The other Gates Millennium Scholars from Wisconsin are:

UW Colleges chancellor survived no-confidence vote, but voting closer than initially reported
A no-confidence vote taken last week against new University of Wisconsin Colleges Chancellor Cathy Sandeen technically failed under the rules for the referendum, but the vote was closer than originally reported.

Walker seeks distance from Read to Lead oversight while grant funds dwindle
Funds for a set of competitive state grants to support literacy initiatives -- part of a key bipartisan education effort in Gov. Scott Walker's first term -- are dwindling, and Walker is seeking to distance his office from overseeing the effort.
The governor and the Joint Finance Committee have chosen not to fund the Read to Lead Development Fund in the next biennium, but an annual $23,000 appropriation will be transferred to the Department of Children and Families, said a spokesman for the Department of Public Instruction.
"There's no more money," said Donna Hejtmanek, a member of the Read to Lead Development Council, during an event Wednesday at St. Catherine School in Milwaukee to announce the latest round of grant recipients. »Read Full Blog Post
Could UW System take a page from Louisiana to sway politics surrounding higher ed funding cuts?
Wisconsin lawmakers aren't the only ones considering major funding cuts to higher education.
But the chancellor of Louisiana State University is making a name for himself for speaking out against Gov. Bobby Jindal's proposed 82% cut to Louisiana's higher education budget, and there's evidence state politicians are listening, the Chronicle of Higher Education reports.
"With less than a month left in the legislative session, the state's House of Representatives has passed a number of measures to ease the higher-education cuts by reducing tax credits for businesses and raising the tax on cigarettes," the Chronicle says. »Read Full Blog Post

Marquette University unveiling design for new space in Global Water Center
Marquette University is about to begin construction of its sixth-floor space in the Global Water Center, a collaborative water-industry consortium in Milwaukee's Walker's Point neighborhood.
President Michael Lovell was to host an open house Thursday night for 500 alumni and friends of the university to unveil early design concepts, according to the university. Construction is to begin this summer, with completion expected late this year.
Marquette will occupy about 8,000 square feet of space on the sixth floor of the 100,000-square-foot, seven-story building, and have access to common space on that floor and elsewhere in the building, according to Lora Strigens, associate vice president for finance and university architect. »Read Full Blog Post
UWM students end sit-in at chancellor's office to protest budget cuts
Students held a sit-in inside the chancellor's office at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee on Thursday afternoon, but agreed to leave after Chancellor Mark Mone agreed said he would meet with them in the next week or so to discuss budget cuts.
The protesters were demanding UWM take a strong stand against Gov. Scott Walker's proposed $300 million cut to the UW System budget over the next two years. The cuts are expected to affect students through reduced class offerings and increased tuition for nonresidents. UWM is trimming its faculty and staff, and has offered an early retirement incentive buyout to more than 300 employees.
UWM Spokesman Tom Luljak said Mone was chairing a Faculty Senate meeting at the time students entered the chancellor's office, and students were invited to join the chancellor at the Faculty Senate meeting. About 15 students did walk over to the faculty meeting to talk with the chancellor, Luljak said. Mone also talked with those who remained at his office in Chapman Hall, and protesters dispursed when they agreed to set up a meeting.

Never took me more than a minute to get my coffee with soy milk before 8am classes. And I need that coffee.The food is mediocre, the place crowded and fast-food style looking, plus the vegan choices (I am a vegan, so I always judge on that!) are very few, but what I really go here for is the pace at which they serve you the coffee. It's really a hyper-efficient assembly line: the first guy asks you what you want, the second guy makes your coffee, the woman swipes your card and wishes you a nice day. Get in, get your coffee, leave: 1 minute and you are on the way to class again. Oh, and the fresh fruit smoothies are pretty good too; and they have 16 oz light options for as low as 90 calories

I like the food here, I usually come here at least twice a week in between classes because it's really fast. Convenient place.

Nothing special about the place, a little expensive for some items.

Gender and Labour in Korea and Japan
Sexing Class
Edited by Ruth Barraclough, Elyssa Faison
Routledge – 2009 – 166 pages
Series: ASAA Women in Asia Series
Routledge – 2009 – 166 pages
Series: ASAA Women in Asia Series
Bringing together for the first time sexual and industrial labour as the means to understand gender, work and class in modern Japan and Korea, this book shows that a key feature of the industrialisation of these countries was the associated development of a modern sex labour industry. Tying industrial and sexual labour together, the book opens up a range of key questions: In what economy do we place the labour of the former "comfort women"? Why have sex workers not been part of the labour movements of Korea and Japan? Why is it difficult to be "working-class" and "feminine"? What sort of labour hierarchies operate in hostess clubs? How do financial crises translate into gender crises? This book explores how sexuality is inscribed in working-class identities and traces the ways in which sexual and labour relations have shaped the cultures of contemporary Japan and Korea. It addresses important historical episodes such as the Japanese colonial industrialisation of Korea, wartime labour mobilisation, women engaged in forced sex work for the Japanese army throughout the Asian continent, and issues of ethnicity and sex in the contemporary workplace. The case studies provide specific examples of the way gender and work have operated across a variety of contexts, including Korean shipyard unions, Japanese hostess clubs, and the autobiographical literature of Korean factory girls. Overall, this book provides a compelling account of the entanglement of sexual and industrial labour throughout the twentieth century, and shows clearly how ideas about gender have contributed in fundamental ways to conceptions of class and worker identities.
"This edited volume is a marvelous text in terms of understanding gendered labour in Japan and South Korea." - Jesook Song, Pacific Affairs: Volume 83, No. 4 – December 2010
"Women are often divided by their gender roles in traditional societies. They must choose to either erase their gender or maintain their femininity; and between their reproductive role and being objects of male sexual pleasure, cast as either mothers and wives or as prostitutes. Women's role as industrial workers hangs in the balance between the two. In closely examining this divide and the experiences of the women who exist within it, this book makes a significant contribution to both gender studies and studies of labour history." Maho Toyoda, Kansai University, Asian Studies Review

You know you've had a bad week as president when PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) gets on your case for killing a fly during an interview with CNBC on Tuesday.
Thing about it was Obama got it on his first try, after the insect landed on his hand.
Impressive. Had it been hapless George W. Bush, he certainly would've missed and then start chasing it around the White House until it flew up his nose.
PETA sent Obama Obama something called a Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher — which lets the capturer to trap a house fly and then release it outside.
This of course would alienate a generation of kids who like to capture flies and pull their wings off and eventually grow up to become Dick Cheney.
PETA's stance on this is reminiscent of a line from Woody Allen's "Annie Hall" when, after Allen's character kills a spider ("the size of a Buick") for Diane Keaton she appears upset, to which he responds "What did you want me to do, capture and rehabilitate it?"
Some Republicans are probably going to accuse Obama of Insecticide and demand an apology to people who are going to have picnics on the Fourth of July and miss having the pesky insects divebombing into their potato salad.
You can almost hear Jabba the Butt Limbaugh now: "This coward of a so-called president, swats an insect to show how tough he is. Maybe he should've tried to talk to it first. Say what you will about me, fellow listeners, but I wouldn't harm a fly."
Ya, just like Norman Bates at the end of Hitchcock's "Psycho."
This would not be a big deal if it wasn't for the fact that it's happening now — during Obama's worst week as president.
Even the liberal news media is about to announce that the honeymoon period is over.
Headline: Honeymoon swoon ends in June.
Comedian Bill Maher jump-started the bandwagon last Friday on his HBO show. Maher hammered home his one point on a few news shows this week: Obama should been more like W., who was able to push his agenda through — however disasterous his ideas.
Of course, Bush had spineless Democrats following the bread crumbs along the path of mass destraction because they didn't want to be seen as cowardly or anti-American.
Obama has a Democratic House and Senate. This time they're afraid to take the lead on anything because they're so used to following so they can't be blamed if something doesn't work.
You can sense it in the airwaves — cable news is turning on Obama.
Fox News is gloating, bragging that it only took them less than 24-hours after Obama was inaugurated to start the "Countdown to We Hope He Fails" reports.
CNN devoted time to a segment called "Obama: Overexposed? Underachieving?"
You have to ask?
Of course he's over-exposed — he's president. What, do you rather see more of Angelina Jolie than Obama — OK, bad example.
Maher whined that Obama doesn't have to be on TV everyday (some might still feel Maher shouldn't be on at all.)
Devoted readers of this blog (and you know who you are — all two or three of you) read it here first months ago: Obama was referred to as President Omnipresent. A more recent blog was called Celebrity-in-Chief.
The media is complaining that he's over-exposed and they keep covering everything he does.
But like everything else with the media, they like to bring down what they believe they and they alone created in the first place.
The liberal newscaster are in a tizzy with Obama because he's not doing enough for gay rights, as far as marriage, benefits and the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
Conservatives are assaulting him because, well, he exists.
John McCain criticizes the man who defeated him for not coming out and damning the bad guys in Iran.
If McCain had won instead of Obama, we probably would be at war with Iran right now. He proved how impulsive he was during the campaign.
And if that fly would've landed on him, he would've called in a SWAT team (ba-oom-boom!)
As to CNN's other question: Obama underachieving? Maybe trying too hard to get a lot of things accomplished is more like it.
The Man can multi-task.
We just said bye-bye this year to the Underachiever-in-Chief?
Whose entire doctrine to the world was equivalent to the proverbial fly in the ointment.

23 year old woman | Indianapolis, IN, USA | Seeking men 22-35 within 50 miles
Every man needs a woman when his life is a mess, because just like in a game of chess; the queen protects the king.
I'm Olivia! I'm random, nice, caring, thrill seeker, I think I was a pyro in my past life, roller coaster junkie, terrible dancer(Sprinkler is my best move), I have a bit of a fowl mouth, I'm active, I love margarita's, quote movies, randomly break out in song, watches football and basketball, embarrass the heck out of myself, want to get a hair cut but I don't want to lose my hair, afraid of plastic baggies and saran wrap(weird phobia but think about it), trip over myself, love Freddy Mercury, plays the Viola and Chello, walking around looking at new places, nature freak, cooking(Italian food all the way), Thumbelina and Rock-a-Doodle are my favorite kids movies, family oriented, love dogs(cats are ok), procrastinator, poker player, says "That's what she said," I'm not afraid to punch a brother, definitely a tom girl( made more guy friends then girlfriends), and one heck of a person to laugh at.. What else...Oh when I'm not being a immature person I have a very strong work ethic. I'm in retail management. My ultimate challenge is being a manager and I finally accomplished it. I'm freight manager at Buckle. I work Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm and I have every weekend off unless I pick a shift up. I'm a huge family person. I'm the person that get's up at eight in the morning with my niece to watch My Little Pony on the T.V. or constantly watches reruns of it while her mom gets a break and has fun. Just sayin, Apple Jack and Rainbow Dash are my favorite. I've been working out a lot. I love doing weights but for me right now it's just been walking around. I've lost almost a hundred pounds and I feel fantastic that I've been doing it and I would love nothing more then to have a partner right next to me to go on those late night walks, my favorite time when I walk is when it's raining, having a light rain jacket on and hearing it hit my wind breaker just get's me pumped. But I've been slacking, yes I walk at work but that's not enough for me but whats really cool is that my store is doing its version of "The biggest loser." I'm super stoked, after Thanksgiving I can't wait to see the new me. Its hard to just focus on a few characteristics that I want in a guy. I want someone with the same adrenaline rush, mind set is strong on what he needs in life, and at the same time can go out and just have fun. Stay at home and watch a movie or just go out and walk around to talk, be honest, trust worthy, be just as random as me, surprise me when he can, laid back, and can make me laugh, be family oriented, and not lie to me. I'm the type of person that will call you out when I know you lie. I've been burned before, cheated on, lied to and I don't want that anymore. I'm pretty young and I need to experience what fun is. Yes I want a relationship but I'd rather have it start out as friends and have fun like getting drunk and build inside jokes together, go to concerts, come over to each others places and watch movies. Yes I want the benefits of cuddling, kissing, and more but I don't want just sex, I need friends. Are you going to be my friend? Please, don't be afraid to message me, it will only make me like you a bit more..

Middle of the Road
I love Broad Ripple. Since I just moved here I can't get enough of the downtown atmosphere. I have yet to explore Indianapolis and I'm wanting to see it really badly. Can someone help me find the best spots?
I like modern music but my heart belongs to the 70's, 80's, and 90's. Aerosmith, Queen, and Bon Jovi. I will sit down and watch NCIS for hours even if I've seen the same episode over and over again. Psych, Boardwalk empire, True Blood, and much more.
walking! I love to just explore different places and see what hidden treasures are around. i've never really been to fountain square and I really want to go badly.
Call me childish but I'm currently reading the Eragon series. I'm on the third book but I've kind of procrastinated on the whole thing. I've been busy lately.

BEIRUT: The head of Hezbollah's Shura Council, Sheikh Mohammad Yazbek, said over the weekend the resistance group would remain supportive of Syria in the face of conspiracies.
"Syria's only guilt is the support it has given to those who resist and we will stand by this country, its army, leadership and people so that it would remain in the face of all conspiracies aimed at tearing the [Arab] nation," Yazbek said Sunday.
Yazbek spoke during a ceremony in Baalbek, east of Beirut, to commemorate the death of Ali al-Habesh who died during the July-August 2006 war between Lebanon and Israel.
Hezbollah has repeatedly voiced its support for President Bashar Assad's government and repeated Damascus' views that the country is facing a foreign conspiracy to topple Assad.
Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, Hezbollah's secretary-general, has warned that any attack on Syria will engulf the entire region, hinting at possible interference by the resistance group.
Damascus has been under Arab and international pressure to end the crisis in its country and halt violence against protesters.
According to U.N. estimates, over 5,000 people, mostly civilians, have been killed since mid-March 2011. Syrian authorities deny targeting civilians, blaming "armed gangs" for their deaths.
Yazbek also reiterated Hezbollah's rejection of any attempts to force the disarmament of the party, saying that Lebanon still faces an enemy on its border.
Hezbollah has maintained that the tripartite formula of "people, army and resistance" is the only optimal means to defend the country. The March 14 coalition has called on Hezbollah to disarm, or integrate its weapons with the Lebanese Army.

this is incredible. we didn't have all the fresh spices on hand, but i faked it using Poultry Seasoning, which is basically all of these spices only dried (McCormicks brand is what i happened to...
Holy Yum! I didn't follow the ingredient measurements exactly, but it turned out great! I like the idea of using maple syrup next time.
Loved it as written. Good to taste REAL sausage again and know exactly what is in the food I'm giving my family. To make it even better, the cost ended up being almost half of what I would have ...

The saying lightning never strikes the same place twice apparently does not apply in Alexander Mandón's case.
The 20-year-old Colombian has been struck by lightning four times since September. So to "cure" his electrical attraction, a local indigenous doctor recommended that Mandón be buried alive in an upright position, Spanish-language publication "Noticias Uno" reports.
