HOPE works in collaboration with the Student Animal Legal Defense Fund (SALDF) chapter at Miami Law to further the interests of animals through the legal system. HOPE provides a forum for education, advocacy and scholarship, and administers an Animal Law Fellowship, sponsored by the Arnold and Barbara Grevior Animal Advocacy Endowment Fund, to advance the growing field of animal law. In addition, the Law School offers a course in Animal Law and hosts an annual Animal Law Symposium to further increase awareness and advocacy opportunities.
HOPE and SALDF volunteers also dedicate time to the Humane Society of Greater Miami. Activities include dog and cat socialization and grooming and dog walking. In addition, volunteers educate community members on population control, providing resources for local care.
HOPE seeks to raise awareness about domestic violence, foster student advocacy on behalf of domestic violence survivors and create initiatives to meet the needs of survivors. To do this, Miami Law students work with community agencies to raise awareness about domestic violence issues in the Miami Law community; foster student advocacy on behalf of domestic violence survivors; and create initiatives to prevent the cycle of violence and meet the needs of survivors.
Students collaborate with several legal services agencies and community centers dedicated to serving the needs of indigent and low income women and their families, as well as victims of abuse, neglect, violence and discrimination, including the Legal Aid Society, Legal Services of Greater Miami, Kristi House, Haitian Women of Miami and the Florida Immigrant Advocacy Center.
For students interested in working in improving education and/or youth literacy, HOPE offers a myriad of programs. These include:
After-School Reading Program: The Volunteer Reading Program is an opportunity for Miami Law students to help children with their reading and language arts skills. This program is a flexible volunteer opportunity that allows students to leave campus and make a difference in a young person's life. Moreover, it is a very rewarding experience for both the kids and the tutors.
Books & Buddies: This program targets children who attend local elementary schools in order to promote reading, writing and education. Each semester, Books & Buddies pairs law students with a local student to share and communicate the excitement of reading through the exchange of letters. Correspondence is traded weekly between the Buddies and provides an opportunity for each to learn about their reading pen pal. This program makes an immense different in the education of these students. At the end of each semester the elementary school children are invited to visit the University of Miami School of Law to meet their law school buddy. The event gives law students the opportunity to speak to their buddies and encourage them to focus on their educational goals.
'Canes Carnival: Each semester, student organizations join forces with HOPE to offer an afternoon of fun to children from after-school programs and shelters. The Law School Courtyard turns from a main thoroughfare to a midway of games, arts and crafts, music, food and fun. Sebastian, the University of Miami mascot, and more than 50 volunteers welcome the children to their carefree visit to Miami Law.
Community Partnership for the Homeless: Since 1995, Community Partnership for the Homeless has been assisting homeless men, women and children in transitioning off the streets of Miami-Dade County and on their way to attaining greater stability and self-sufficiency in their lives. HOPE volunteers spend a morning or afternoon with homeless children at one of the two Miami-Dade County locations. Activities throughout the year include a day of play with the children, helping to prepare a meal, arts and crafts, as well as special events such as a big Halloween Party, holiday gift time and more.
First Book: First Book is a national nonprofit organization with a single mission: to provide low-income children with their first new books. Comprised of volunteers from all sectors of the campus community, First Book at Miami Law works to promote and facilitate the distribution of new books to literacy programs in the Miami metropolitan area. We strive to provide books to children in literacy programs, shelters for battered children, housing project initiatives, soup kitchens, after-school programs and other community-based efforts reaching children living at or below the poverty line. Nationally, since its inception in 1992, First Book has distributed more than 45 million new books to children in need in hundreds of communities.
"It's Your Life" - Financial Literacy Project: Each year in Miami, about 300 teens age out of the foster care system upon turning 18 and become in charge of their personal finances. These teens, however, have never received any education concerning issues such as opening a checking account or saving to accomplish long term goals. They often fall victim to predatory lending and develop substantial debt, which creates a large barrier between themselves and success. The Financial Literacy program was established to provide these teens with the tools and information they need to manage the financial responsibilities of adulthood. The curriculum is organized in a very user-friendly format and a training session prepares students to teach financial literacy. The program consists of five classes, with each class ranging from two to three hours. The classes are taught at various schools and community centers throughout Miami-Dade County. The program concludes with a trip to a local Florida bank where the teens open a checking and savings account.
Legal Up!: A project of the Miami-Dade Family Learning Partnership, Legal Up! focuses on improving literacy, understanding rights and parent skill-building for young parents, immigrants, young people emerging from foster care and others who could use help in improving their own lives and those of their children. The project aims to help those attending to: recognize, prevent, and/or resolve legal challenges hopefully without a lawyer, more often through community resources, and if need be, with a lawyer; understand their legal rights and responsibilities; and appreciate the role that law and lawyers contribute to a just and fair community and country. Student Fellows assist judges and lawyers in conducting interactive sessions on the following topics: The Law, Criminal Law, Family Law, Finance, Immigration, Landlord Tenant Law, and Law in the Workplace.
School Success: HOPE volunteers collaborate with Miami Law Student Organizations and the community to assure that students have the appropriate supplies for learning at Miami-Dade County Schools.
HOPE students work with Community Partnerships for Homeless, Camillus House, Legal Services of Greater Miami and other local agencies to research the legal issues affecting South Florida's homeless population. Miami Law students work to meet individual basic needs, connect homeless individuals and families with needed social services and advocate for specific legal needs.
Camillus House: Serving the South Florida community since 1960, Camillus House is a non-profit organization that provides humanitarian services to poor and homeless men, women and children. Camillus offers a full continuum of services that includes food, shelter, housing, rehabilitative treatment, and health care. Through HOPE, volunteers work in the soup kitchen, preparing and serving meals to individuals and families in need.
Habitat for Humanity: Habitat for Humanity is an international non-profit organization that seeks to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world. HOPE volunteers spend a day in partnership with Habitat for Humanity building homes and communities for low-income families within the Greater Miami area. Projects include framing houses, installing drywall, laying roof shingles, painting, etc.
The Juvenile Justice Project (JJP) was implemented to serve the needs of offenders in the juvenile justice system as well as to provide law students with the opportunity to gain valuable experience while sharing their knowledge of the legal system as mentors and tutors. The JJP connects Miami Law students with various community and governmental agencies to effectuate policy changes and improve the delivery of services to children in our delinquency system. Efforts include direct representation, research and writing, policy reform and mentoring.
Some of the challenges plaguing our juvenile justice system include: young children being arrested and held in detention centers, children with no access to appropriate educational services, children in need of intervention and alternative sanctioning systems. However, appropriate programs and placements are few and far between. Through partnership with various youth projects, our students are able to make meaningful connections with children and bridge some of the gaps of the system.
The Re-Entry Project allows HOPE volunteers to team with local agencies serving adults—including the ACLU, the Office of the Public Defender and the Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation Department—to provide assistance to individuals re-entering society, post-incarceration. Initiatives include restoration of rights, voter registration, job readiness assessment and training, and mock career fairs. In addition, students work with various community agencies focused on juvenile re-entry to provide mentoring and support to incarcerated juveniles.
HOPE teams students with various community agencies in need of translation assistance. Individuals with second language skills are highly encouraged to register with the HOPE Office and indicate availability and field of interest through the volunteer interest form. Students have the opportunity to assist in various areas of practice and are afforded a meaningful opportunity to play a key role in the promotion of access to justice. Register Here.

On the Domestic Violence Project: "Domestic violence, which impacts every part of our community, is on the rise and can pose significant challenges for women's economic security, particularly during the current economic crisis. Survivors of violence may need legal support for a variety of issues including housing, divorce, employment, child support, and even obtaining injunctions to maintain their safety and well being." - Sophie Brion, J.D., J.D. 2012
Andrea Martinez, Class of 2015, talks about tutoring inner-city students through Empowered Youth.
On the Homeless Assistance Project: "I believe that homeless children should be taught that they are important to society and that they deserve all the same rights and resources as other children. So many people choose to look down on these children and assume that they are not worthy of their attention." - Courtney Tie, J.D. 2011
Logan Haine Roberts, Class of 2014, talks about the impact of HOPE on his law school experience as well as his experience volunteering at Chapman Partnership for the homeless.
On the Re-Entry and Restoration of Rights Project: "Once a single individual realizes her rights, the knowledge can spread and contribute to the abolition of human rights abuses throughout a village, town, city, country, continent, and hopefully, the elimination of all abuse will occur throughout the world." – Shannon A. Greco, J.D. 2010
On the Translation Assistance Project: "The great thing about HOPE is that students are being encouraged from Day 1 of law school to make a difference in our community using the legal profession as a foundation." – Mindy Reinstein, J.D. 2008
On the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Project: "VITA is a great example of how we can make a huge difference in our community, providing tax assistance to people who would otherwise be taken advantage of by unscrupulous tax preparers." – Jake Mueller, J.D. 2009
"Volunteerism comes in all different forms. What does volunteerism have to do with voting initiatives? By connecting underserved populations and teaching them about their rights, you are creating a more educated and empowered citizenry." – Sarah Trent, J.D. 2009

Makhteshim Agan Swings to a Net Profit
5:54 AM MST | November 7, 2011 | Ian Young
Makhteshim Agan Group (Tel Aviv) registered a $10-million net profit in the third quarter of 2011 compared with a $56-million net loss in the corresponding period of 2010, on sales up 20%, to $638 million. Ebitda increased more than three-fold, to $83 million. The improvement reflects higher agchem sales volumes, a shift in Makhteshim Agan's portfolio toward "higher-profit products," and restructuring efforts launched in 2010, the company says. "The period's top-line results reflect the continued strong performance of each of our regions, including...

DIY vs. Buy: How to Make Cherry Bitters
Asking me to pick my favorite cocktail is sort of like asking parents which of their kids is the best. It's a hard question to answer, but deep in my heart, I know. Sorry, Sazerac and Martini, even though I love you so, the Manhattan is easily my favorite drink. So I was surprised that a simple change to this classic drink made me love it even more. More

The couple recently celebrated their 26th wedding anniversary in the spring. On The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Hanks once declared: "The only thing we ever argue about is who loves each other more." Awww...
Brolin drove all the way from Malibu to Tucson to get Streisand the "right dog." (That would be Sammie, the couple's hypoallergenic coton de Tulear.) Brolin and his bride of 16 years "have the best of marriages," he crows. "I'm so proud of us for that."
When Harmon was dubbed "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine in 1986, Dawber thought, "How embarrassing for the poor guy." Introduced a few months afterward, the NCIS star and Mork's Mindy have been married 27 years.

Presumably Ford never called one of the private planes he pilots "this bucket of bolts," as he did the Millennium Falcon, for he and Flockhart have bonded over their love of aerial joyriding. As for their 22-year age difference? "A non-issue," says Ford.
They never "put a ring on it," but the famed pair are going strong after 31 years. Gossip items about their kissing and canoodling at a New York event last year made the two sound like love-struck teenagers.
Major Tom's avant-garde cool crumbled in 1990, the year he met the stunning Somali model. She knew Bowie was "The One," Iman has said, the day he met her plane from Paris with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
They both took their lumps from gossip rags, but the two actors have stayed true through tragedy (the 2009 death of their son Jett) and triumph (his Golden Globe for 1995's Get Shorty) for 23 starry years.
Anyone recall Bening vowing not to become just another one of Beatty's sound-stage affairs before they started shooting Bugsy in 1991? They wed a year later.
No book on body language is needed to grok the bond between these two: When POTUS sang "Let's Stay Together" while dancing with FLOTUS at an inaugural ball, it was enough to melt the heart of even die-hard cynics.
Bach and the Beatle looked just as affectionate watching this year's Grammy Awards as they did as newlyweds on Good Morning America 33 years ago.
Their tumultuous union has survived thrown coffee cups, health scares, addiction, a separation and worse. Still, as Sharon told a British TV audience, "He says we're like bread and butter. We're a team."
The media queen and her prince consort have made a regal-looking team at countless events since they got together in 1986. They'll never marry, Oprah has said, because her life is too nontraditional, but hey — it works!
Sex twice daily is one way — well, two ways — the 67-year-old Somers has kept things fresh in her 37-year marriage to the 77-year-old Canadian TV host.

When they first became an item in the early 1990s, she took the "endlessly fascinating" Ted on a "friends check you out" date — to the White House. Getting to know the Clintons has been just one perk of their 19-year pairing.
You'd expect a legendary choreographer like Allen to have traced the origins of twerking to African dance. But did you know that Allen does it at night when she gets home to her husband of three decades, the NBA star-turned-broadcaster Nixon?
She declared her intention to marry the man when she first laid eyes on a picture of him smirking from a Spinal Tap layout in Rolling Stone. Come December, their two-person band will have been together 30 years.
The film beauty and the TV genius moved from L.A. to the San Francisco area in 2004 to raise their kids. Now they're empty nesters, raising the prospect she'll play more roles. We look forward to it!
He was credited only as "Card Player #2" in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, one of her iconic films from the 1960s (another was The Graduate), but Sam and Kate didn't meet until both starred in 1978's The Legacy. They wed in 1984.

Can you come up with a better headline for this image than Fox News?
by Alex Hern Published
Fox News has a story today genuinely headlined "AP publishes unflattering pic of Romney bending over".
The piece goes on to ask:
So was it a cheap shot?
Tim Graham, media analysis director at the Media Research Center, says absolutely.
"It's unbelievable," he wrote. "It honestly looks like a little girl is gaping at Romney from behind."
It seems like they missed a trick with running it with such a staid headline, though. Has anyone got any better ideas?

You can invariably tell when government officials are trying to do something unpopular and expensive — they rush ahead before everyone can figure out the problems and the costs involved. That was the modus operandi on the stimulus plan and on the budget. And now it's the chosen approach on healthcare. As the Wall Street Journal reports, the president's directive that this must happen this year is born of necessity. The more we learn and think about this, the less sense it makes:
Their health overhaul will run up a 13-figure price tag at a time when spending and deficits are already at epic levels and hook up the middle class to an intravenous drip of government health subsidies for generations to come. These are not realities that Democrats want the American people to mull over for very long.
This is especially true for the majority of Americans who are generally satisfied with their coverage and doctors but worried about cost.
[. . .]
This shell game found its apotheosis yesterday in "The Economic Case for Health Care Reform," from the White House Council of Economic Advisors, which argues that slowing the growth rate of U.S. health costs by 1.5 percentage points would increase real GDP by more than 2% in 2020 and nearly 8% in 2030. But it presents no plan for actually slowing the growth rate of U.S. health costs. Christina Romer's study is a political argument disguised as an economic one in favor of a "reform" that doesn't even exist yet. And in any case, if we're talking about the state of the economy decades hence, why does health care absolutely have to pass this year?
Yes, Obama is desperate for an achievement as unemployment soars and his foreign policy flounders. But what is he actually going to pass that won't greatly annoy the majority of Americans with employer-provided insurance? What is he going to pass that won't break the bank with billions and billions in new spending? After all, they have to pass something specific, not just the concept of healthcare. They have the votes to ram through most anything the president wants, but it's far from clear that speed will achieve a workable, popular plan. The Obama administration has been long on grand gestures and short on crafting intricate and viable policy solutions (GM? Guantanamo? Stimulus Plan anyone? Not a one of them is designed with a realistic possibility for success.) Let's see what they come up with — in a mad rush.

A federal grant will help them capture rainwater. To green up the home of the orange.
For the past few years, officials at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse have been working hard to enhance the fan experience. Now, they're turning some of their attention to a project that will help the environment. Pete Sala, Carrier Dome Manager says, "having a building like this in place, it obviously stands out in the community and on campus. When we were approached by engineers from C&S and we met with them and decided what can we do if we save some of the water from the roof."
The basic concept is there. Gravity will be a big help. So will the design of the Dome. Restrooms are stacked right over each other from level to level. But some key details are still being worked out. Sala says, "where can we store the water somewhere in the building, very difficult, that's been one of the biggest challenges because we can't store the water in the tubs where the water comes down because of snow backup onto the roof, so we need to be a little creative with that."
They won't be able to take all the rain that comes off the six and half acres of roof, there's just too much to handle. But what they do collect will help reduce how much goes into the stormwater system and eventually Onondaga Lake. It could put the popular stadium on the map for more than just sports.

summer school 2013
browse by key words: art and religion
WEEK ONE: 8 - 12 July 2013
Course 1: Dr Cecily Hennessy
Nike to Angel: The Inception of Early Christian Art
Christian imagery is central to our knowledge and experience of western art during the past two millennia. This course explores the origins and influences of that imagery as it appears in wall paintings and monumental mosaics, in ivories, metalwork and manuscripts. In order to gain a perspective on its roots and influences, we look at key images and symbols from the pre-Christian world. We analyse their meanings and significance and discuss how they gained new interpretations when borrowed and adapted for fundamental aspects of Christian iconography. We also examine the role of art in religious belief and practice, focusing on key sites, such as Dura Europos in modern Syria and fascinating late antique cities, including Ravenna, Rome and Constantinople as well as questioning major visual concepts such as the representation of Christ and of the Virgin. It is planned that visits include a special behind-the-scenes session at the British Library.
Course 2: Dr Rose Walker
The Road to Compostela
The fee for this course is £475 to include the cost of travelling to Ely
'There are four roads … ', so begins the 'Pilgrim's Guide' to Santiago de Compostela in the Codex Calixtinus, the manuscript that was stolen from the cathedral in 2011. The text goes on to describe an itinerary of holy bodies; good and bad rivers; places to stay and people to avoid. Along those same roads some of the finest monuments of Romanesque art came into being.
This course will look at buildings and sculpture at sites along the roads in France and Spain. We will examine the idea of a 'pilgrimage church' in relation to Santiago de Compostela, Sainte-Foy-de-Conques, and St Sernin-de-Toulouse. How did processions and liturgy use cloisters like Moissac and Santo Domingo de Silos? How did reliquaries, above all the mesmeric image of Sainte-Foy at Conques, embody a relationship with their community and with pilgrims? In London we will visit the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Library. The course will also consider England's fascination with Santiago de Compostela over the centuries and pilgrimage in England through a visit to Ely Cathedral, where we will be accompanied by the distinguished scholar of medieval architecture, Professor Paul Crossley.
NB You may also be interested in Dr Walker's and Professor Rocío Sánchez Ameijeiras' Study Tour to Santiago de Compostela from 11-13 October.
Both course and tour are, however, entirely freestanding events and attendance at one does not require attendance at the other.
WEEK TWO: 15 - 19 July 2013
Course 11: Dr Richard Williams
Art and the Reformation
The Reformation ran in parallel with the Renaissance in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Europe, each exerting a profound effect on the visual arts. Often caricaturing the Protestant Reformation as purely destructive, art history has usually downplayed or overlooked the ways in which it shaped and re-directed the arts. Cranach collaborated with Luther to reinvent religious art so that it avoided medieval 'superstition', and other German artists, including Dürer and Holbein, took different approaches in adapting to the changing climate. Bruegel and others developed new, less controversial subjects such as landscapes, still-life, and genre scenes. We can also detect a new 'Protestant sensibility' in the art of Rembrandt whose down-to-earth realism contrasts so dramatically with the grandiose works of Rubens, a representative of the Catholic Counter-Reformation. Moreover, the Reformation forced a re-evaluation of the purpose of the visual image, shifting from a religious icon to a 'work of art', admired for its beauty. This course looks at the art of Northern Europe from the destruction of a rich tradition of medieval art to the flourishing of new and often very moving works. Visits will include the National Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Museum Department of Prints and Drawings.
Course 14: Gail Turner
The Arts in Spain in the 16th and 17th Centuries: Patronage by Church and State under the Habsburgs
This course is an introduction to the extraordinary wealth and variety of the arts in Spain - from the post-Islamic sixteenth century to the end of the Habsburg era. Spain's vast empire attracted talented artists, architects and sculptors from all over Europe. Italian and Flemish prints were often the initial inspiration for many artists of Spain's Golden Age of the seventeenth century. Spain led the Counter Reformation against Protestantism and the Spanish Church commissioned vast numbers of religious images during the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Realism was considered most effective in communicating the Catholic cause. This is reflected in the paintings of Velázquez, Zurbarán, and Murillo, and in contemporary sculptures, some of which even incorporated ivory teeth and glass eyes. This period saw the origins of the enduring tradition of popular processions, during which life-size images of Christ and the Virgin were paraded round the streets. Meanwhile the court in Madrid commissioned grand-style portraiture and decorative schemes, demonstrating the formality and the power of the Habsburg Empire while seemingly ignoring the realities of the impending political and economic melt-down. Visits will include the National Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Wallace Collection and The Courtauld Print Room.
WEEK THREE: 22 - 26 July 2013
Course 17: Dr Eileen Rubery
Beauty and Splendour Piece by Piece: The Art of Mosaics from Antiquity to the Renaissance
The fee for this course is £475 as the group will be limited to 10 students; this also includes the cost of course materials/workshops
Angel from an apsidal mosaic, Church of Kiti, Cyprus, © Robin CormackThe use of coloured fragments of glass, stone, shells and earthenware to decorate floors, walls and ceilings occurs from the earliest of times. Mosaics form a robust, flexible and colourful decoration that also, especially when gold or silver is included, glitters and glows in the light, giving a unique impression of movement and liveliness. We shall consider how mosaics were made and what messages they were intended to convey to the observer. Starting with secular images on floors and in the ruins of Pompeii, we shall move on to look at the earliest Christian examples in Rome and Roman Britain, the mosaics of the Imperial Palace and Byzantine churches of Constantinople, and mosaics from Greece, Rome, Norman Sicily and Renaissance Venice. We shall see how mosaics were used to create some of the most sumptuous and spectacular celebrations of religious and secular power. Visits are to the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. There will also be three practical sessions in a mosaic workshop, where we will see modern examples and where every student will have the opportunity to make a small mosaic of their own.

The Best St. Louis Punk Shows in February
Sat 16. Livery Co. $5, 9PM. Male Bondage, Violations, Trauma Harness.
Male Bondage is an awesomely unpredictable outfit. Each song on their Bandcamp page sounds like a different band and each takes weird directions right in the middle. It's great. Violations marks the return of Nathan Prater (Love Lost But Not Forgotten/House Of Eight Legs fame) to terrorizing the microphone over a snotty, somewhat Euro sounding fast brand of punk. Trauma Harness are Bellevegas' craziest comic book store argument. Make it out or get thrown down a sewer.
Sun 17. Cicero's. $10, 7PM Masked Intruder, The Humanoids, The Fuck Off And Dies, Perdition, & Eaten Back To Life
Masked Intruder - February 17 @ Ciciero's
Masked Intruder are the hottest thing on the pop-punk circuit right now, and deservedly so. Come catch the band before they become baby rockstars from befriending Fat Wreck Chords/NOFX. The Humanoids will knock over all your tables. The Fuck Off And Dies will probably cuss a lot. Perdition is on tour from Fort Worth, TX. They do the Hot Water Music-worship thing, but the right way. Eaten Back To Life is named after a Cannibal Corpse record, but play self proclaimed "horror punk." This will be a fun show -- bring your boyfriend/girlfriend, after you've put a ski mask on, of course.

Weekend Special: When Cities, People and Highways Glow Like Stars
In this video, we are flying over the Earth, looking down and seeing what astronauts see when it's nighttime, when lightning storms flash like June bugs, when cities look like galaxies, when you can see where people are. It's quietly astonishing.
This montage of space footage was assembled and narrated by NASA scientist Justin Wilkinson. There's another one, which takes us around the Earth in daytime.

These pants are great for any shape and at any length.
Step 1: Supplies
Sewing machine
Thread and bobbin
Marking chalk
Iron & ironing board
Tape measure
Long straight edge
Two D-rings
2" strip of sew of Velcro
Hip and waist measurement
Desired pant length
Step 2: Iron fabric
Fabric should be pre-washed to avoid any shrinking.
With most cottons, use the steam setting to get out all wrinkles.
Step 3: Lie out fabric
Lie out fabric two layers, right sides together:
You want to use the finished edges of the sheet to your advantage.
I use the bottom of the sheet for the hem, and the side of the sheet for the back because back will be on top with a finished edge.
If you use the top of the sheet for the hem the pattern might be upside down and the hem would be 3 or 4 inches wide.
Step 4: Mark hip width
When using common fabric you can only get 45" wide.
I would finish all sides of the fabric first if you are not using a finished sheet.
Step 5: Mark center
If you prefer, on your second pair of pants you can move the center over towards the front. This will give you more of a wrap around the back. Or move it towards the back for more wrap around the front.
Step 6: Place pattern
Place pattern with back hip on the left side towards the finished edge of the fabric and crotch at center mark.
Place front pant leg so that the front crotch touches the back crotch.
Make sure bottom of pant legs are flush with bottom hem of fabric.
If you are making knee length pants mark a perpendicular line to the grain line on the pattern where you want the length to be.
Step 7: Mark top of pattern
(this point may vary depending on pattern used).
Also, if you reverse the overlap they don't 'flap in the breeze' when you walk, but it's also more secure if you use ties on both sides. It is easy to reach in at the front to untie them for those bathroom visits, then just bring them back under the front overlap and tie again at the front waist. Make sure your overlaps are straight and you're done!
I actually have a pattern from Birch Street patterns that came without the ties in the pattern.
Apparently, it's possible to tie both front and back?
Just trying to remember how this works for the bathroom...
Long ago, again in the '70's, I had some kind of wrap around skirt/dress thing.
Lots of ideas here, and
I say make them the way you prefer I like them tying in the front because it's easier to use the bathroom among other things!

Cooking and Baking
I've got a whole lotta guajillos
A friend of mine voyaged back to the states for the holidays and I'd asked her to bring me a few Mexican ingredients from her home-state of Texas, as certain ones are hard to find here in France. Boy did she follow through, Texas style!
Part of my goodie bag is a GIANT sack of dried guajillos. I'm talking 50-60 chiles here. So what are your favorite ways to use them? :)

About São Paulo
"I am not led, I lead" declares the city's Latin motto, and given its present-day status as Brazil's capital of commerce, it's a fair statement.
However, São Paulo was not always such an economic powerhouse. It was founded in 1554 by Jesuit Missionaries and was largely overlooked until it became the 17th century departure point for the Portuguese colony's Bandeira (flag) expeditions. Yet it was not until the late 19th century that São Paulo truly flourished. Establishing itself as one of Brazil's main coffee producers, the city began to attract Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, German, and Japanese investment, and by 1895 more than half of the 130,000 residents were immigrants.
This influx of wealth transformed São Paulo from a sleepy mission post into a financial hub with a burgeoning cultural scene. By the 1920s São Paulo was promoting avant-garde poets and artists such as Mário and Oswald de Andrade, founders of Brazilian modernism.
Today, São Paulo's metropolitan area has a population of 20 million people and features in the world's top-ten 'rich cities' list. As a result, São Paulo is as famous for its designer shopping as it is for its imaginative cuisine and cultural attractions. São Paulo is also a natural springboard to the delights of Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia, the beaches of the Paulista Coast and the Amazon.
São Paulo is a sprawling city with more than 70 museums, 200 theatres and 50 parks. Add 20 million residents and a bustling business district, and you'll find there is never a shortage of São Paulo sights or activities.
Start a tour of this diverse city at Praça da Sé, where a stone monument designates the centre of the city, and is overlooked by the imposing Neo-Gothic Catedral da Sé de São Paulo.
A short distance southwest is Avenida Paulista, the city's two km-long commercial centre. The Avenida plays host to the Museu de Arte de São Paulo, an attraction which hosts one of Latin America's most important collections of impressionist paintings by artists such as Degas, Renoir, Goya and Manet. Further works of art can be found at the nearby Casa das Rosas, a private residence turned cultural centre.
Other São Paulo highlights include the downtown Teatro Municipal, an ornate Parisian-style opera house built in 1903 and rumoured to have near-perfect acoustics. Alternatively, visit the recently renovated Estação Julio Prestes, a Victorian railway station that has been completely restored and adapted for use as a cultural centre. Both venues feature a rich programme of classical music, dance, opera, and theatre.
Dining and Nightlife
With an estimated 15,000 clubs and bars, São Paulo is a popular nightlife destination. The city, colloquially known as Sampa, is beset by trends; check with a resident Paulistano for the latest information. São Paulo is famous for samba but its two main entertainment districts - Rua 13 de Maio and Jardins - are home to nightclubs offering every beat from disco to jazz. The city's wealthiest residents tend to head for the upmarket establishments in the Vila Madalena, Jardins and Itaim neighbourhoods, while younger Paulistanos flock to Pinheiros and Vila Olímpia.
The city is also renowned for its gastronomic prowess: with 12,000 restaurants featuring more than 40 global cuisines there really is something to suit all tastes. São Paulo's Italian community is in central Bela Vista, also known as Bixiga, where you can expect to enjoy some of the finest Italian cuisine outside of the Mediterranean. Those looking for oriental cuisine can visit Liberdade: once the exclusive preserve of the Japanese, the vibrant and colourful district is now also home to many Chinese and Korean descendants.
Beyond São Paulo
São Paulo's coastal location is just a stone's throw from some of Brazil's finest beaches. Just an hour's drive along the Paulista Coast is Guarujá, a small town with dozens of beaches. The most popular spots are the turquoise waters of Pitangueiras and Astúrias and the white sands of Enseada and Casado but beware, they can get busy.
Footballs fanatics may wish to pay homage to Santos, Brazil's most important port. However, most travellers overlook the port in favour of visiting Santos FC, the team made famous by the legendary Brazilian football player, Pele.

Wish I had Google Scholar as a grad student
From time to time, our own T.V. Raman shares his tips on how to use Google from his perspective as a technologist who cannot see—tips that sighted people, among others, may also find useful. - Ed.
Conducting research from the comfort of one's office or home is a wonderful convenience, but it's especially rewarding when you need to go the extra mile in accessing research publications.
When I was a graduate student at Cornell, I needed to go to the library with a reader (yes, an actual live human, not a computer:-)), find the relevant publications, and then arrange to have what I judged to be the most relevant articles read to me. Occasionally, I would scan the printed articles to OCR them and have my computer read it aloud to me. Mostly this was a failure since the articles I wanted to read were in the fields of math or computer science, and OCR dealt poorly, if at all, with technical material. More often than not, I would write to the authors of the publications in the hope of getting access to online versions so that I could save on reader time.
Turning the clock forward to today, equivalent access is a Google Scholar search away. What's more, thanks to publishers like the ACM who making journal publications available online, one can access the complete publication directly from within the search hits. Since the advent of Google Scholar, I have not had to send out email requests to authors asking for access to the electronic versions. And where authors have made these available from their websites, Google Scholar links to those as part of the result set.
So I wish I had had this as a graduate student. Though I have to say working at Google does feel like being in graduate school (but with better food and more money)—so maybe my wish has been granted.

ACD or auto attendant maintenance includes hardware, software, programming and configuration changes to any of the components of the service. Components involved could be network equipment, software, or programming; or it could be platform equipment, software or programming.
Low Impact Maintenance Schedule
Planned maintenance that should not cause a service disruption is deemed "Low Impact Maintenance." This scheduled maintenance occurs on a regular, scheduled basis, usually the first Tuesday of the month and always after hours.
Notification will be sent to all agency contacts informing them of the maintenance and when the maintenance has been completed.
High Impact Maintenance Schedule
Planned maintenance that is known to be service affecting is deemed "High Impact Maintenance." Any high impact maintenance will take place after hours with notification sent to all agency contacts once OTM becomes aware of the need for the maintenance. Agencies with implementations that operate 24 hours will need to make other arrangements for their telephone answering needs for the duration of the maintenance.
OTM will notify the agency contacts when the maintenance has been completed.
Emergency Maintenance
Unplanned maintenance may need to be done on an emergency basis and without much warning. This will only be done if normal service is interrupted or degraded and action is necessary to restore service to its normal levels. If at all possible, emergency maintenance will be done after hours.
If emergency maintenance is necessary during working hours, all agencies will be notified of the maintenance, what the impact is anticipated to be, why the work is being done outside the normal maintenance window and what the duration of the maintenance is expected to be. While the maintenance is progressing, agencies will be provided with periodic updates.
When agencies deem it necessary, they may forward their incoming calls to an agency in-house telephone number for the duration of the maintenance. Agencies with automated attendants or 24/7 call centers have been provided with programming information/directions for this purpose.

On an earnings conference call, the CEO of Cliffs Natural Resources, Joe Carrabba, said the company may have to idle production lines next year.
Cliffs Natural Resources is looking ahead to the future, and believes a weaker demand for iron ore may lead to idling some production lines next year.
Mines mentioned include Hibbing Taconite and Northshore Mining, and the Empire Mine in Michigan.
Carrabba said that a combination of idled lines could be done as well. But the company has to wait for final decisions because customer orders are still coming in through November.
Frank Jenko, president of the local at Hibtac, said it shows that steel imports are hurting our economy. He is concerned, but understands that nothing has been decided for certain at this point.

How many atoms of Hydrogen are in 67.2 L of H2 at STP?
1 Answer | Add Yours
One mole of any gas at STP has a volume of 22.4 L. So first determine the number of moles of gas you have.
67.2/22.4 = 3 moles of H2
One mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number of atoms = 6.022 x 10^23 atoms.
So multiply number of moles x number of atoms/mole = 1.8066 x 10^24 atoms of H2.

A Mathematical Olympiad is a problem solving competition open to all
"mathletes". The aim of the competition is to test innate problem
solving skills. The problems are restricted to those that require
minimal background and high ingenuity. Since one of the goals of
such olympiads is to identify talent at a young age, these olympiads
are usually restricted to students not yet admitted to any
undergraduate programme.
International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) is the World Championship
Mathematics Competition for High School students and is held annually
in a different country. The first IMO was held in 1959 in Romania, with
7 countries participating. It has gradually expanded to over 100
countries from 5 continents. IMO 2012 was held in Mar del Plata,
Argentina. IMO 2013 was held in Santa Marta, Colombia.
India has been participating in the IMO since 1989 and hosted it in Mumbai in 1996. The 6-member Indian team for the IMO is selected through a three-step procedure, organised by the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education (HBCSE) on behalf of the National Board for Higher Mathematics (NBHM) and funded by the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India.
In IMO 2015, the Indian Team members and their performance were as follows: Soumik Ghosh (Honourable mention), Sagnik Majumder (Honourable mention), Jeet Mohapatra (Silver medal), Anant Mudgal (Honourable mention), Shourya Pandey (Bronze medal), Pranjal Warade (Bronze medal).
In IMO 2014, the Indian Team members and their performance were as follows: Soumik Ghosh (Honourable mention), Jeet Mohapatra (Bronze medal), Sagnik Saha (Silver medal), Supravat Sarkar (Honourable mention), Anish Prasad Sevekari (Bronze medal), Chaitanya Tappu (Bronze medal).
In IMO 2013, the following members of Indian Team won medals: Sagnik Saha
(Silver), Shubham Sinha (Silver), Pranav
Nuti (Bronze), Anish Prasad Sevekari (Bronze), Pallav Goyal (Bronze).
We are
happy to announce the establishment of Mukul Chaudhuri Memorial Prize
for the best girl student from each Class VIII to XII, irrespective of
whether they are selected for INMO or not, provided they score a
minimum qualifying marks. The Prize, in form of books, is made possible
by a generous gift from Professor Soma Chaudhuri of Iowa State
University, in the memory of her mother.
Mukul Chaudhuri (1922 - 2007) was a talented student of mathematics. She received the Kirtichand-Mackenzie Memorial Gold Medal in 1938, awarded to the candidate with the highest marks in mathematics in the Calcutta University Matriculation Exam. She completed her Bachelor's degree in Mathematics in 1942. However her academic career was cut short due to the political situation at the time (Partition of India). She became a school teacher in mathematics and taught in a variety of schools, both in India and abroad. Even though she couldn't further her own academic career, she encouraged numerous girls to pursue higher education in mathematics-related disciplines.

Plan Comparisons of the two Romeo and Juliet films.
Extracts from this document...
Plan Comparisons of the two Romeo and Juliet films Romeo and Juliet is a famous play written by William Shakespeare. The play is a tragedy based on an allegedly true story. The play itself was written for the theatre. The story is set in Verona in Italy. The story is about two lovers who come from rich families, the Capulets and Montagues. Both of the families are sworn enemies. Their love brings tragic consequences. The play is known throughout the world. The two main themes in the play are love and conflict. The play is dominated by these themes. Themes include romantic love and passion between Romeo and Juliet and gang warfare between the Montagues and Capulets, family arguments and conflict between generation gaps. These themes are universal. These themes are common today just as they were four hundred years ago. However, there are differences between today and Shakespeare's times. One example of the differences is entertainment. In Shakespeare's time the only entertainment they had was live plays where as nowadays we still have live plays but cinema is the most dominant. ...read more.
Franco Zeffirelli and Baz Luhrmann are well known directors. They got famous by directing two different versions of Romeo and Juliet. Franco Zeffireli's Romeo and Juliet was faithful to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Whereas Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet was a futuristic stunning success. When the film starts Zeffirelli sticks to how it would be like in the Elizabethan time with the Prologue read as a background voice and shots of Elizabethan Verona and its high walls. This is very effective because this is how, many people would have imagined when they read Romeo and Juliet and he sets the film in Elizabethan Verona, Italy. As in Luhrmann's version, the Prologue starts as a news report on the TV with shots of sky-scrapers. This is very effective as a magnet for teenagers. Baz Luhrmann sets the film in Verona beach, Miami. Zeffirelli made Montagues and Capulets look like the noblemen, the lords of Verona. He made the settings traditional he made the characters look traditional with old cloths and swords. ...read more.
Baz Luhrmann film was a major success, without the music, it would not have been quite the same. The music really helps the fight scenes and the romantic ones. Rock music was given to romantic and beat music for fight scenes. This really does attract all music lovers. Zeffirelli's slow film matches the slow tempo music. It shows off the setting by the ring of bells now and then. One of the most important feature in Luhrmann's film was the edited Shakespeare language. He only makes minor changes but it works like a magnet for the people who had difficulties in understanding the Shakespeare language. Zeffirelli however sticks with the original text. Technology is also a reason why Luhrmann's film was a success. Luhrmann really shows off how the world has grown since the time of Zeffirelli. Luhrmann uses fast moving camera to make the film fast and interesting. He also uses special effects. The scene when Romeo chases Tybalt was a great example of how Luhrmann has used the camera effectively. Zeffirelli uses basic camera shots. He uses low-angle shot of Prince to show the domination and power within that character. He uses wide shots for large-scale movement. Sanjayan Ravi 10CR English coursework ...read more.

Blood Drive Today
December 7, 2011
Filed under News
Coming up on December 7 is a school-wide blood drive to help support Jake Franzel (12), a student here at Lindbergh who was diagnosed with bone cancer, and the entire St. Louis community.
The drive will be run by the Senior Activities Committee and many are excited to not just feel like they are committing a good deed, but truly know that they are making a difference.
Students and community members should come to the multi-purpose room to donate. Donors will receive a free t-shirt.
"It's a real good cause, it's quick, and you get a free shirt! Plus you get to get out of class," said Hannah Marler (12).
For more information, or to set up an appointment, call Sue Franzel at (314) 791-9514.
One last reminder: be sure to consume lots of food and water before giving blood to prevent wooziness (but if anyone's worried about feeling dizzy or sick, a snack table is provided to relieve any discomfort following the donation).

Unfortunately for fans, some of music's biggest and most talented stars shine so bright that they burn themselves out. Plagued by mental illness, drug addiction, or just plain aversion to fame, it's all too often that artists just fall off the map. It's easy to forget how young some of these singers were when they reached the apex of their critical acclaim. Lauryn Hill and Brian Wilson were both just 23 years old when they released their smashes The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill and Pet Sounds, respectively. If we were that big at 23, we might get a little freaked, too.

Ritchey Design Recalls Defective WCS Rear Wheels
JULY 28, 2005 -- SAN CARLOS, CA (BRAIN)*Ritchey Design is recalling about 2,000 WCS road and mountain rear wheels, sold both to the aftermarket and to original equipment customers.
The recall is limited to Ritchey WCS rear wheels produced since January 2003. Comp and Pro level wheels are not included in this recall.
The problem is that the rear freehub body, manufactured under license from American Classic, may slip or altogether cease engagement with the freehub pawls, causing the rider to lose all forward drive without warning. The design of the Ritchey WCS rear hub has since been corrected and manufactured correctly to eliminate this potentially hazardous condition.
For more information, call (88 776-8625 or visit www.ritcheylogic.com/wcsrecall.
