Contributed by Carlos Figueroa on 06/08/2015
The lecture explored how progressive Quaker political interventions into US Puerto Rico affairs -- between the Foraker Act (1900) and the Jones Act (1917) – structured broader insular policy debates over the extension of collective citizenship, and self-government practices in overseas dependent territories.

Carlos Figueroa, Ph.D., Politics Department, recently gave a public talk titled "Quakers, Political Ecumenism and U.S. Philippine Policy Discourse in the Early Twentieth Century" at Stetson University, Celebration, Fl (May 4, 2015)
Contributed by Carlos Figueroa on 05/28/2015
U.S. Quakers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries engaged in social and political reform activities that included intervening in U.S. insular policy discourses. Hicksite Quaker Albert K. Smiley, a rather unknown Social gospeller, contributed to such national policy debates by providing a communal democratic space for engaging in what Figueroa calls 'political ecumenism.' This talk examined these early U.S. Quaker national policy interventions through Smiley's Lake Mohonk Conference of Friends of the Indian and Other Dependent Peoples (LMC) to show how both American and Filipino leaders, Quaker and non-Quaker alike, utilized the LMC to assuage the polarizing & competing racial-religious values serving as cultural barriers (broadly characterizing the 'Philippine problem') to U.S. Philippine policy development.

Pixelsync for iPad provides a mobile Aperture library
Bart Jacobs has released Pixelsync, a new app that allows Aperture users to sync photos from their Aperture libraries to their iPad for reviewing, rating and labelling while on the go. Using a companion app on the Mac, Pixelsync can transfer and sync photos with the iPad app from one or more Aperture Libraries over a local Wi-Fi connection. Selected photos are stored locally on the iPad where they can be rated and labelled offline, later syncing this information back to the Aperture library. Formerly known as Tagalicious, the recent update has renamed the app to Pixelsync due to a naming conflict with an existing Mac application. The latest version allows users to assign color labels to photos in addition to star ratings, and adds a slideshow feature and the ability to sort the view by name, date or rating. Pixelsync requires Mac OS X 10.6 or later, Aperture 3.0 or later and iOS 4.2 and is available from the App Store for $6.

The Black Friday and Cyber Monday best-seller forecast is based upon sales data and consumer shopping trends from the past year.

In addition to perennial holiday favorites such as dollhouses, play kitchens and bicycles, Wayfair.com is predicting strong sales in five product categories:
Wayfair.com's 2012 Forecast: Most Popular Holiday Gifts for Kids and Family
- Trampolines – Trampolines have been top sellers at Wayfair.com in past years but following the Summer Olympic Games and the success of the U.S. women's gymnastics team, the online retailer is seeing a surge of interest in gymnastic-related equipment including trampolines, mats and balance beams. This Wayfair.com favorite will be on sale for $299 this Cyber Monday.
- Air hockey tables – Economic pressures are steering many families away from expensive individual gifts to more family-focused gifts that everyone can enjoy. Game tables are big sellers at Wayfair.com with browse data pointing to a strong interest in air hockey tables this year. Shoppers can purchase the Playcraft Air Hockey Table on Cyber Monday for the sale price of $139 with free two-day delivery.
- Kayaks – Wayfair.com has seen strong month over month growth in kayak sales this past year. With a variety of makes and models available now, kayaks are appealing to a broad base of consumers for a number of recreational uses. New inflatable models and ultra-light options make it easier than ever to store and transport a kayak. Wayfair.com's best-selling youth kayak is on sale this holiday season for $110.96.
- Chicken coops – The trend of raising chickens in the backyard has been sweeping the country for a couple of years now and seems to be propelled by Americans' interest in more self-reliance as well as an interest in locally-raised food. Wayfair.com carries more than 30 different types of chicken coops ranging in price from just over $100 to more than $1500. The Bedford Chicken Barn & Pen is on sale this holiday season for $425.
- Children's recliners and gaming chairs – Last year, children's recliners were Wayfair.com's top selling product category on Cyber Monday. There is a steady demand for pint-sized furniture that is customizable in various fabrics and silhouettes. Wayfair.com offers more than 650 chairs for children in every style from polka-dot princess print to camouflage with cup-holders.

Rep. Peter King Finds Cojones To Stand Up To Tax Bully Grover Norquist
If you don't know who Grover Norquist is, allow us to explain: he's an angry little man who bullies Congressional candidates into signing his "Taxpayer Protection Pledge," which basically is the wannabe lawmakers' promise that he or she won't vote to raise taxes under any circumstances. If a candidate refuses to sign the pledge -- or fails to live up to its requirements once elected to office -- Norquist moves heaven and earth to make sure that person isn't elected (or re-elected) to Congress.
As the founder of the group Americans for Tax Reform, Norquist has become a very powerful player in the Republican Party -- 95-percent of Republicans in Congress have signed his stubborn pledge, and are subject to Norquist's bullying. He's basically the Scut Farkus of the Republican Party.
But Norquist's pledge is losing some of its luster amongst GOPers as the country approaches the so-called "fiscal cliff." And one of those GOP lawmakers standing up to Norquist's bullying is New York's own Congressman Peter King.
Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss got the ball against Norquist's pledge rolling last week when he said in a television interview that "I care more about my country than I do about a 20-year-old pledge. And I care about the country that we leave our children and grandchildren. If we do it (Norquist's) way then we'll continue in debt and I just have a disagreement with him about that."
King echoed Chambliss' discontent with Norquist's pledge over the weekend, noting that taking "ironclad positions" during budget negotiations wasn't the best way to go.
"I agree entirely with Saxby Chambliss. A pledge you signed 20 years ago, 18 years ago, is for that Congress," King said on NBC's Meet the Press. "For instance, if I were in Congress in 1941, I would have signed a declaration of war against Japan. I'm not going to attack Japan today. The world has changed, and the economic situation is different."
King is just one of several powerful GOP lawmakers finally standing up to Norquist.
Norquist responded to King's comments, telling CNN that "I do want to correct one thing. Congressman Peter King of New York knows full well that the pledge that he signed and others have, is for while you're in Congress. It's not for a two year period."

Volkswagen turns to The Bark Side for new Star Wars Super Bowl XLVI spot (video)
Last year's Super Bowl was memorable for one thing more than any other: not that it was played with the roof closed, which gave it an eerie atmosphere (in our opinion); nor that it marked a great victory for the Green Bay Packers, in their first Super Bowl win in 14 years; nope, it was THAT Volkswagen advert.
You remember, the one with the little kid who wanted to be Darth Vader. Simple, but brilliant in its execution, and only marred by two things: firstly, that the little kid inside the helmet turned out to be a precocious brat when interviewed on TV shows; and secondly, that the UK version of the same ad replaced the noise of the car engine starting up remotely at the end (something the Passat can do) with a lightsaber sample (something IT CAN NOT DO). We're not bitter though. Much.
Now Volkswagen is returning to a Star Wars theme with its advert for Super Bowl XLVI, and has posted a teaser for its spot during the most watched sporting spectacle in the US online for all to enjoy.
This time, the company has opted for dogs to provide the entertainment rather than irritating rug rats and we must say that we approve. It's bloody brilliant, and if this is but the warm up for the real ad, we can't wait.
All will be revealed on 5 February...

November 21, 2012
A contractor dies in a car accident on his 40th birthday and finds himself at the Pearly Gates. A brass band is playing, the angels are singing a beautiful hymn, there is a huge crowd cheering and shouting his name, and absolutely everyone wants to shake his hand.
Just when he thinks things can't possibly get any better, Saint Peter himself runs over, apologizes for not greeting him personally at the Pearly Gates, shakes his hand, and says, "Congratulations son, we've been waiting a long time for you."
Totally confused and a little embarrassed, the contractor sheepishly looks at Saint Peter and says, "Saint Peter, I tried to lead a God-fearing life, I loved my family, I tried to obey the 10 Commandments, but congratulations for what? I honestly don't remember doing anything really special when I was alive."
"Congratulations for what?" says Saint Peter, totally amazed at the man's modesty. "We're celebrating the fact that you lived to be 160 years old! God himself wants to see you!"
The contractor is awestruck and can only look at Saint Peter with his mouth wide open. When he regains his power of speech, he looks up at Saint Peter and says "Saint Peter, I lived my life in the eternal hope that when I died I would be judged by God and be found to be worthy, but I only lived to be forty."
"That's simply impossible son," says Saint Peter. "We've added up your time sheets."

Seen better days beforePosted 16-Jul-2015
In time this hotel potentially will be better as renovation is underway. Noise when elevator is in operation gives uncomfortable feeling. Hallways to rooms has frayed carpeting and dimly lit. The circular structure of the building didn't help, as it give a claustrophobic feel. The room furnitures are a bit outdated and dusty light fixtures. The sheer & thermal drapes on the sliding door was nicely hanged. However the thermal drapes didn't work, as it can only be drawn only at half length.

It is convenient to the airport but, it is old.Posted 7-Jul-2015
Pros: It was convenient to the airport, the free shuttle to the airport was nice. The drive was very courteous.
Cons: It appear that you are in the process of upgrading so that is good because the carpet does appear a bit old.
Location: The near by eateries left alot to be desired.
The staff was nice but, frowned at the $75.00 deposit "just in case" you partake of the snacks and room service. The sheets did not appear to be clean. I found hair stuck to the sheets.

Disappointed pictures deplict the oppositePosted 6-Jul-2015
Pros: The view in the breakfast penthouse floor
Cons: The whole hotel is dated and old needs a deep clean in all the rooms, hair and filty carpets
Location: Ok location no real eating selections that we were familiar with close to University which we liked. Also close to Seal Beach which is beautiful
Very disappointed, based on the pictures I thought the rooms were going to be a lot nicer. We got there on a late check in which was guaranteed. We got our key cards one card did not work after trying the second card it worked it took 10 additional minutes to get into the room. Once inside the room smelled like cigarettes, supposed to be non-smoking. The room was an older dated room, carpets very dirty walking around in my white socks they soon turned dark brown underneath. I booked this room specifically for the fridge since I need to keep medication cold, no fridge. After 15 minutes trying to contact the front desk they agreed to have maintenance bring one up. We had to wait another 15-20 minutes finally got the fridge in which was a very old run down fridge smelled terrible. The fridge looked like they picked it up from the dumpster. It took about 4 hours to actually get cold. The shower was very small you can't close the door unless you muneaver your entire body out of the way almost in the tub, toilet dirty. Lumpy bed and stained pillows had a cigarette smell. The breakfast was not good bland tasted awful especially the eggs. The only good thing was the view and the our server was nice. The whole hotel was just out dated and front desk staff was not friendly. At almost $200 a night I would prefer other options. This hotel in my opinion deceives guest with nice pictures not true to pictures. Another guest told us when you book third party you get worst room selection

Bad experiencePosted 27-Jun-2015
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Communications between expedia booking systems and holiday inn booking systems
We booked for 4 people including breakfast. When we checkin, Hotel staff gave us breakfast vouchers for only 2 people. We showed them our expedia booking mail in which our breakfast was included. Hotel staff said that in his system only appears two breakfast, so he can not honored the way the booking was made. I asked him to sell me the other two breakfast and he said me that he can not sell me them. The room was noisy and not well cleaned.

Near airportPosted 16-Jun-2015
Pros: Parking convenience, close to freeway
Cons: Cleanliness, improve customer service- verbal communication skills
Location: places to eat were close. Room service available, but food was lukewarm and bagel over microwaved.
Found dirty socks from previous visit on floor. Dirty q tip found next to bed, no microwave in room. Striped carpet made room feel as if on an angle, dizziness effect. Hotel receptionist was indifferent, never greeted or welcomed us to the hotel. As I was checking in, the receptionist was informing a patron who had to be in his 60's about no parties in the room, there could have been a more professional way to indicate this to someone of his age, he was not 20.

Posted 9-Jun-2015
Pros: I liked the bar and happy hour offerings. Servers were nice and the drinks and food were fairly priced and good.
Cons: I did not like how the housekeeper barged in when I was getting dressed.
Location: It was close to the airport and Carnival Cruise Port, so that worked out well.
I did not get two passes to the complimentary breakfast that is offered to Holiday Inn guests at check-in, so I ended up having to pay $ 33 extra for breakfast when it should have been provided to me. For $ 170 a night, I think the breakfast should be included.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Sudha G Tilak | 24 Nov 2013 13:02 GMT | India
A teenage girl, daughter of a well-known doctor couple, is found brutally murdered in the family apartment in Noida, a suburb of the Indian capital, New Delhi.
Next day, the decomposing body of the family's servant, an initial suspect in the girl's murder, is recovered from the terrace of the same building. Who killed Aarushi Talwar and Hemraj, the domestic help?
Live Box 2013927135832671882
More than five bruising years after the double murders became India's most talked about crime, a court is due to deliver its verdict on Monday. The dentist couple, Rajesh and Nupur Talwar, is accused of killing their 13-year-old daughter and 45-year-old help by slitting their throats. The twists and turns in the case have been many and bizarre, making it India's most high-profile and controversial trial. In the beginning, the police threw Rajesh Talwar, into prison for killing Aarushi because she "objected to her father's relationship" with another doctor, and that the "girl herself was in a relationship with the servant." Talwar, 49, was bailed out after 50 days in prison. Twists and turns
Amid mounting concerns that the local police had botched up investigations - the crime scene had been run over by the media and outsiders - the case was handed over to India's top investigation agency, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
The CBI took a different tack, investigating the role of three other men - Krishna Thadarai, Dr Talwar's assistant at his clinic, Raj Kumar, a servant, and Vijay Mandal, a driver - in the murders.
The three were held and released after nearly two months after a sensational revelation by the CBI - Krishna reportedly told the investigators in polygraph, lie-detector and narco-analysis tests that he and the other two men were involved in the murders.
The chief investigating officer Arun Kumar said Krishna had told the sleuths that the three men had got drunk at Talwar's home on the night of the incident, entered Aarushi's room, gagged her, hit her with a "hard, blunt object" and "tried to sexually abuse her".
This had led to a violent scuffle, Krishna apparently told the investigators, after which they went to the terrace, killed Hemraj, returned to Aarushi's room and "then slit her neck". But since narco-analysis confessions, triggered by drugs, are not admissible in a court of law, the agency allowed the men to be released, saying they would look for harder, clinching evidence.
A year later, the agency appeared to have made little progress despite a new team of investigators at the agency taking over the case. And then, in what many thought was a shocking and inexplicable twist to the case, the CBI said in December 2010 that it now believed the parents were involved, but wanted to close the case because of lack of hard evidence.
The CBI's closure report said a "number of circumstances indicate the involvement of the parents in the crime and the cover up", alluding to precise surgical cuts on the victim's bodies which were the work of "professionally trained people" and suggesting that one of Rajesh Talwar's golf clubs may have been the weapon of murder. This time, the three men were exonerated. The Talwars protested. They appealed to a special court, set up to try cases involving investigations by the agency, against the CBI's plea to close the case.
But in another tantalising twist, the court disagreed with both the Talwars and the CBI: it said the agency's closure report had enough material to charge the Talwars with the murder.
In June 2012, the 17-month-long fast-track trial began in the court. If Rajesh Talwar and his wife, Nupur, 48, are found guilty of murder, they could face a life sentence or even capital punishment. 'Miscarriage of justice?'
Monday's verdict is not likely to bring closure to this case. In the more than five years it has dragged on, the chase shone a spotlight on an all that is wrong with India.
The police and the CBI have been blamed for a possible miscarriage of justice thanks to shoddy investigation, sloppy marshalling of circumstantial evidence and casting aspersions on the parents, sometimes turning it into kind of morality play.
Many of India's 24-hour news channels and countless newspapers have been blamed for whipping up an unprecedented frenzy over the case, selectively publishing leaked lurid details of the case, and railing against the Talwars, stoking fears of a trial by media.
According to leading writer and historian Patrick French, the Talwar's "lack of knowledge about the people in their home was to destroy their lives - aided and exacerbated by the administrative dystopia of the state of Uttar Pradesh", where Noida is located.
And the way the Talwars have been castigated before being proven guilty has also revealed the sharp social cleavages in a fast-changing country - salacious gossip about the supposedly libertine lifestyle of the couple and their daughter were liberally splashed over the media.
"If you look at the way the case has developed, it would lead to logical suspicions that the Talwars have been framed. The flip flops during the investigation and the decision by the court to start a trial on the basis of a report by an investigation agency to close the case for lack of evidence haven't been still explained," says sociologist P Roy. Rebecca John, a senior lawyer in the defence team, says she is "fighting for civil liberties and to uphold individual rights" in defending the Talwars.
"I am still looking for that one piece of definite evidence which nails it on the Talwars," she told an interviewer. "What we found by extensive reading of the case files is actually evidence that nails somebody else and establishes his involvement in the case."
John says there's "something rotten" about criminal justice and policing in India. "We need to change it fast," she says.
Reports say the Talwar couple is stoic before the verdict. ""Even if they acquit me, I am not going to let this go," Rajesh Talwar told a news website. "I am going to make sure that those who did this to my child are brought to justice. I owe it to Aarushi."

Getty Institute Buys Knoedler Gallery Archive
Before the Knoedler Gallery closed its doors last year, and before it and its former president Ann Freedman were mired in lawsuits and accusations of selling fakes, the gallery on East 70th Street in Manhattan was considered among the most distinguished in the world.
Formed 165 years ago, the gallery helped shape many of this country's greatest collections, including those of Paul Mellon, Henry Clay Frick and Robert Sterling Clark. Over the years Knoedler also bought and sold works by a roster that reads like a Who's Who of 19th- and 20th-century art, including van Gogh, Manet, Winslow Homer, Frederic E. Church and John Singer Sargent, as well as more contemporary figures like Louise Bourgeois, Willem de Kooning and Barnett Newman.
This week the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles announced that it had bought the Knoedler Gallery archive, a vast trove dating from around 1850 to 1971 that incorporates stock books, sales books, a photo archive and files of correspondence, including illustrated letters from artists and collectors....

In these six weeks I have learned to travel abroad, navigate foreign cities and be independent at only twenty years old all while using a foreign language. It is truly quite amazing when I think about it. Now that this adventure is complete I cannot wait to see where my next adventure lies.
