Lynn Schuchter, MD, chief of the division of Hematology-Oncology in the Abramson Cancer Center, was quoted extensively in articles detailing results of new melanoma drug studies presented during the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology. Findings revealed that giving metastatic melanoma patients drugs known as immune checkpoint blockers together or sequentially improves outcomes. The results seen in that approach and others detailed at the meeting "confirm that 'revving' up the immune system is a powerful approach in shrinking melanoma," Schuchter said. "Melanoma patients are living longer and better with these new treatments." She said the findings emphasize the importance of getting patients into clinical trials of new drugs. "Patients with melanoma getting access to these new agents is really the most critical part of care," she told reporters. James Riley, PhD, a research associate professor of Microbiology, is also quoted in articles detailing these new approaches, noting in an editorial accompanying the studies in the New England Journal of Medicine that "the results of these trials are striking and complementary."

Takeshi KIMEDA is credited with introducing YOSHINKAN AIKIDO to Canada on his arrival in 1964 in Toronto, Ontario. Kimeda, presently ranked 7th dan, systematically built up a network of dojos in the Toronto, Hamilton and Windsor areas. This development was enhanced by the arrival of Mitsugoro KARASAWA, now a 6th dan, in 1970. The major Canadian Yoshinkan instructors in the greater Toronto/Hamilton area include Allister THOMPSON, Fred HAYNES, Enore GARDINIO, James STEWART, Don Hoo, Brian Budgell, Roger Plomish and Greg West. After 1975, Windsor, which is on the U. S. /Canadian border in southern Ontario, also evolved into a center of Yoshinkan Aikido, largely due to the arrival of Takashi KUSHIDA in 1973 in Detroit, Michigan across the border. The major Canadian instructors in the Windsor area are James and Sue JEANNETTE and Kevin and Patricia BLOK. Outside of Ontario, Yoshinkan Aikido has spread to British Columbia on the West Coast where principal instructors are Jim Kootnekoff and Keith Taylor. The Yoshinkan dojos in Ontario under Kimeda belong to the AIKIDO YOSHINKAN CANADA (AYC) organization which has about 12 dojos and more than 500 practicing members. AYC's current president is Brian Budgell. Historically, this group has had close links with the AIKIDO YOSHINKAI ASSOCIATION OF NORTH AMERICA (AYANA) of Kushida and the Yoshinkan Aikido Hombu Dojo in Tokyo. In 1980, AYC, AYANA and Aikido Yoshinkan of California jointly hosted the second trip of Gozo SHIODA to North America which included a visit to Ontario. Kimeda officially ended organizational links with AYANA in 1987 which reduced Kushida's influence in Canada. The creation of the INTERNATIONAL YOSHINKAI AIKIDO FEDERATION in 1990 has recently altered the political status quo among Yoshinkan dojos in Canada. Moreover, the severance of ties with Kushida by the Yoshinkan Hombu on 1 August 1990 is likely to produce major changes among dojos in North America.
The introduction of AIKIKAI HOMBU-style aikido to Canada begins with the arrival in Montreal in January 1967 of Massimo DI VILLADORATA. A former student of Motokage KAWAMUKAI and Hiroshi TADA, di Villadorata developed a core group of students who in turn opened new schools, primarily in the Montreal area. His Montreal Aikikai is today the largest aikido dojo in Canada with more than 200 members. Some of the early Aikikai teachers active in the Toronto area in the 1970s were Masanori Yazu, Bruce Styles, Henry Kono and Bill Collins. In 1975, Yukio KAWAHARA arrived in Montreal as a 4th dan representing the Aikikai and remained there for several years before relocating to Vancouver, B. C. Kawahara's coming was due to the efforts of Fumio ISHIYAMA, a Japanese aikidoka resident in Montreal. Ishiyama also later relocated to British Columbia where he is presently active instructing in the Vancouver-Victoria area. Another Japanese instructor in Canada representing the Aikikai and residing near Toronto is Osamu Obata.
The organization grouping together Aikikai-affiliated dojos is the Canadian Aikido Federation which was established c. 1976. It presently comprises some 40 dojos throughout Canada which are organized on the provincial level.
YOSEIKAN AIKIDO is represented in Canada due to the efforts of Patrick AUG

How to roast potatoes
1. It's a fact that perfect roast potatoes are quite hard to find – they seldom work in restaurants because they don't like hanging around, and they're either too greasy or tough and leathery. But at home they can be perfect every time: all you need to do is follow these instructions to the letter and you'll never have a failure. You'll need a good solid-based, shallow roasting tin measuring 14 x 11 x ¾ inches (35 x 28 x 2 cm).
2. My favourite variety of potato to use is Desirée, but Romano and King Edward are also good. To serve six people, first place the roasting tin with 3 oz (75 g) fat in it on the highest shelf of the oven while it pre-heats to gas mark 7, 425°F (220°C). The ideal thing to use would be fat taken from the meat during roasting but lard is what I would choose if nothing else were available. Thinly peel 3 lb (1.3 kg) potatoes, using a potato peeler, then cut them into fairly even-sized pieces, leaving any small potatoes whole. Then place them in a saucepan, pour over boiling water from a kettle, just to cover, add salt and simmer for about 10 minutes. Then lift one out with a skewer and see if the outer edge is fluffy. You can test this by running the point of the skewer along the surface – if it still seems too smooth, give it a few more minutes.
3. Then drain off the water (reserving some for the gravy). Place the lid back on the saucepan then, holding the lid firmly, and protecting your hand with a cloth or oven glove, shake the saucepan vigorously up and down.
4. What you are trying to achieve here is to roughen up the cooked edges of the potatoes and then make them floury and fluffy – this is the secret of the crunchy edges.
5. Now, using an oven glove to protect your hands, remove the hot roasting tin containing its sizzling fat and transfer it to the direct heat (medium) on the hob. This is why you need a roasting tin with a solid base – cheap, tinny ones that buckle when exposed to high heat are useless. Use a long-handled spoon to quickly lower the potatoes into the hot fat.
6. When they are all in, tilt the tray and baste each one so it's completely coated with fat. This seals them immediately and prevents them sticking and becoming greasy, which is what happens when the fat is not hot enough.
7. Now place them back on the highest shelf of the oven and leave them unattended for 40-50 minutes or until they are golden brown. There's no need to turn them over at half time – they will brown evenly by themselves. Sprinkle them with a little crushed salt before serving.

King to be honored
Civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr. will be honored in Lee County with multiple events in this long holiday weekend bearing his name.
There will be a wreath-placing ceremony today at the MLK Memorial Park on South Horner Boulevard, near the intersection with Washington Avenue. Starting at 1 p.m., Pastor Delores Washington of the Ebenezer Gospel Assembly will speak, followed by a song and the wreath ceremony itself, which will be conducted by local officials.
At 11 a.m. today, Fair Promise A.M.E. Zion will hold a special tribute to King, and later tonight, the annual MLK Unity Event, sponsored by the Lee County NAACP, will be held at 6 p.m. at Blandonia Presbyterian Church. The speaker will be the Rev. Curtis Gatewood, past president of the Durham NAACP.
On Monday, the 16th annual MLK Day Community Celebration will take place all day at the Dennis A. Wicker Civic Center, starting at 9:30 a.m. and going well into the afternoon. The festivities are being sponsored by the Council for Effective Actions, and former N.C. Senator Eric Mansfield of Fayetteville will deliver the keynote address.
The morning activities on Monday will feature youth group competitions in dancing, singing and miming. Mansfield, who won election in 2010 but left his seat after one term and is now campaigning to be chairman of the N.C. Democratic Party, will take the floor at 12:30 p.m.
There will be prize drawings all day Monday, as well as a ceremony honoring several community leaders.

The University of Leicester – Meeting Student Demand with Talis Aspire
The University of Leicester is a research-led university in the heart of the United Kingdom. With a high-quality academic reputation and a place in the top 20 of all major national league tables, the university caters to over 20,000 students. It has an excellent reputation for student satisfaction – and has invested heavily in campus improvements, including the development of the new David Wilson library. With ambitious plans for future development and growth in student numbers planned, the university needed an experienced partner to deliver its reading-list service.
'We wanted to improve visibility and access to Library resources and more specifically improve student experience. Drivers included – its ease of use to create reading-lists, its development and support, ability to integrate with our book supplier database, ability to integrate with our Blackboard VLE.'
The Challenges:
- The university migrated to a new Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) in 2011 and needed a reading-list provider that could support integration with Blackboard 9.1
- Reading-lists were often delivered as printed handouts or directly uploaded to the VLE – the library needed to change this to improve its resource management processes
- The library was keen to review its acquisitions strategy, and to support decision-making with better usage data – something Talis could provide through advanced analytics features.
The Solution:
The library reviewed the available reading-list management solutions and made a recommendation that the university should invest in the Talis Aspire reading-list service. The recommendation was sent to the IT Portfolio Board and approved in early 2012.
'Having evaluated what was available and driven by a requirement to provide access to reading-lists Talis Aspire provided the best solution.'
The Outcomes:
- The implementation work was completed in summer 2012 and the university tenancy is now live
- The university plans to get academics creating reading-lists ready for use by students in the second term of the 2012/13 academic year
- Talis expertise and ongoing support will ensure that the reading-list service will scale as the student numbers and services grow.
'… we are on track to target Semester 2 and hopefully will start to get academics on board and creating reading-lists between now and Christmas.'
Customer Thoughts
We want to improve student experience by providing access to reading-lists through our VLE, and ultimately have each course with a reading-list. This can only be achieved by academic colleague creating reading-lists which we think, or hope will be driven by student demand. We also hope to improve the acquisition workflow as well as have some additional and meaningful usability data on which resources are being used.
Joanne Dunham, Head of Collections and Information Systems, University of Leicester, UK

Now he is going to the really "deluxe apartment in the sky". RIP.
I nominate Toft's Ice Cream from Sandusky. I grew up on this stuff and boy did I grow!
They have had 20 years to prove his mental competency and they wait until the day before to delay
What I don't get is if he has 14.5 million in assets and 10.5 in liabilities, then he has a net worth of 4 million. How many people with a net worth of 4 million file for bankruptcy. On top of that he is earning over 400,000 a year.
eaglegroup, you made a comment about how "Many of his family members hold or have held county jobs (you dont think they got these jobs on their qualifications do ya). " Back up your claims, who in his family has worked for the county?
I agree with lakemistakes, this might be the worst piece of journalism and that is tough coming from the PD. THe reason why Westlake has 50 million in the bank is because Clough has done his job. As for teh part about Westlake being a "filthy rich" suburb, here are some median household income numbers from other cities in the area. Westlake 63400, Rocky River 62000, Bay Village 72500, Avon 75000, Avon Lake 75000, Solon 93000, Shaker 75000, Strongsville 73000. And not one of theses other filthier rich suburbs has 50 million in the bank. Yes Westlake is better off than many cities but it is no way Filthy Rich.
As for Clough going to East CLeveland to be mayor, yes he would have trouble and the East CLeveland mayor would have problems in Westlake. Is Clough a saint, no, but I am sure glad he has been the mayor of Westlake for the past 25 years.
You reading skills are lakcking. These charter schools lost their sponsors due to the sponsors lack of financial assets. The current schools are not being closed but taken over by the state while the state looks for another sponsor. Take your political aganda elsewhere.
If you don't want a ticket then obey the law. It seems most people here want the police to do their job as long as they don't get a ticket.
Why are these ciies fasting? is it some kind of new religion?
He was not a good person. He stole $7 million dollars from people, friends included, and went on the run to avoid the consequences of his actions. He is a bad person.
When I saw that RTA employees were worried about safety I thought that maybe they were concerned about pedestrian safety. Why are busses always empty yet always in a hurry to run red lights. These things should be removed from the streets. Nothing more than giant taxis that make no money.
How about county commisioner? His resume is perfect for Cuyahoga County politics.
Correction then why is the economy in the $hitter?
If the "best and brightests" went into business, then why is our economy is $hitter. The best and brightest are running companies like GM, Ford, AIG, NCB, Key, and every other company that wants the government to bail them out. I guess the learned on thing, when the money runs out, ask the government for more.
Back to the article, since when are schools in the business of entertaining kids by hosting dances. I know schools have done this for years, but why? Let all teh rich parents host teh dances on their own. They can then be responsible for all the drunks.
By the way, I am one of the "worst and dumbest" teachers. I assume you home school your children clevelandbil.
I heard that Danny Ferry is going to sign himself and he now considers himself the piece the Cavs need to win the championship.
Bring back Ben Poquette.
I can't wait for the parent's to say " Not my Son". Rocky RIver is the denial capital of the world. The new mascot for Rocky River should be the 'Enablers'.
I heard teh mother told her to wear sunscreen and the daughter refused so mom ran her over. No time outs in this family.

Locals Only
Sad but true, members of The Sess have confirmed that the band has split up. While full details weren't known as of press time, it seems two of the members, including frontman Sam Rivera, have quit to pursue other projects. The Sess released their debut, Agendumb, this year and were nominated for Best Rock Album at this year's San Diego Music Awards. When CityBeat published a feature on them a month ago, we didn't realize quite how prophetic we were when we ran the headline "San Diego's most dangerous band is probably too good to last."
Local blues musicians are banding together to help raise money for Mark "Fergie" Ferguson who suffered a stroke in June. Local musician Bob Bowley (aka Bobby Whiteshoes) has known Ferguson for 40 years and says that while he's making an incredible recovery, the singer and harmonica player needs help to pay his medical bills. "Although the stroke has limited his abilities, he is still a strong-willed fighter," Bowley said. The all-ages, nearly all-day concert will be at South Park Bar & Grill from 3 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11, and will feature Street Deluxe Blues Band, Delta Heat and West of Memphis, among others.
Although they've had live-music-permit problems lately, The Avalon owner Marc Shannon has been given the OK to move forward on the North Park venue's three-day Weekend That Never Ended event, which will feature art classes, live mural paintings, fashion shows and concerts. Singer-songwriter Alan Silva will host the musical portion, called Pandemonium, which will feature local bands playing from 11 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11, until 11 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 12. The entire "Weekend" event begins Friday evening and ends Sunday evening.—Seth Combs
Same as it ever was
David Byrne didn't sell out Humphrey's by the Bay last week, but that had to be due to the ticket price and not Byrne's ability to put on a kick-ass performance, since that's what he did. While not as innovative as previous tours, this more simplified, more organic tour is classic Byrne and fans weren't disappointed. It was so fantastic that the crowd was on its feet—some on the chairs—for a better part of the concert. Seriously. The security staff looked flummoxed.
The 56-year-old artist has long since ditched his iconic oversized suit for a plain white ensemble that perfectly matched his now-white hair. He opened the show with a mavericky comment gloriously aimed at the Republican Party ticket and then launched into the reflective, ironic and utterly dance-alongable "Strange Overtones," the already popular single from his new album, Everything that Happens Will Happen Today. Backed by an also-clad-in-white five-member band, three backup singers and three dancers (that count might be off since I'd had a cocktail or seven), Byrne played two more songs from the independently distributed album on which he collaborated with the equally prolific Brian Eno, before taking the audience back to some Talking Heads favorites.
Byrne's look may be pared down, but his performance was electric. His haunting voice is still steady and distinctive; his lyrics continue to illuminate the mundane and the profound as he gets to the core of what it means to be human. And who else but David Byrne could possibly make modern dance palatable? This tour is a great reminder of Byrne's genius and his continuing relevance as a performance artist. Maybe next time he'll play 4 & B. —Aaryn Belfer
The Enrique Experience
Board shorts made way for $300 jeans and Manolo Blahnik heels kicked flip-flops to the curb for the first-ever San Diego Fashion Week. More like a long weekend, the on-again, off-again event seemed like TJ fashion week at times, with an array of south-of-the-border designers such as Olga Sánchez and Ivette Alaniz but nonetheless managed to pack in a crowd Friday night at Downtown's KIN Lounge.
White folding chairs were set up, mimicking the style of New York, Paris, Milan, et al., but with a SoCal twist: The runway was installed just above water level in the swimming pool.
"I now understand what pregnant women mean when they say they're ready—I feel like I just gave birth, and it's wonderful!" Allison Andrews, the woman responsible for popping San Diego's fashion-week cherry, told CityBeat after the show.
Designer Sergio Alcalá—whose style can be best described as Pee-wee's Playhouse on acid—wowed the audience with his deconstructed DayGlo aesthetic. "Every piece is one-of-a-kind, numbered and part of a project I call 10,000 Around the World," said Alcalá.
The designer is currently on the 600th piece of his 10K quota, and, after the show, he was seen hawking his own outfit as part of his fashion endeavor. His customized neon green jeans were going for $50, the slightly worn miniature mariachi sombrero-adorned trucker hat for $40.
Austrian couturier Petra O. made a splash, quite literally—jumping in the pool after her last model strutted her stuff. "I've always had a thing for mermaids," she said, adding "besides, I'm trying to bring the wet look back."
On the ride back from the Fashion Week soirée, I noticed the bright-pink neon Chee-Chee sign was lit. Turns out the Downtown dive, my home-away-from-home, is now open till Northern Mockingbird (that's 2 a.m. to you and me—Chee-Chee's wall clock uses birds in lieu of numbers). What I saw was revolting: tattooed hipsters playing pool as rockabilly chicks ordered 24-ounce PBRs at the bar. But just when I thought the bar had been devoured by the hipster-driven gentrification machine, the dentally challenged gentleman sitting next to me said, "You know, my lover used to drink red wine out of my foreskin."—Enrique Limón
View from a Stool
The Swell Season's for lovers. About 90 percent of the audience at SDSU's Open Air Theatre last Friday was couples with their arms wrapped around each other listening to the perfectly harmonizing voices of Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, The Swell Season couple who publicly fell in love while filming the 2007 indie Irish musical, Once.
While the Oscar statuettes won in 2008 for one of the songs on the film, "Falling Slowly," are sitting in Hansard and Irglova's parents' houses in Ireland and the Czech Republic, respectively, and Hansard takes a break from his super-famous-in-Ireland band, The Frames, the two lovebirds are touring the world and taking their not-so-sweet and rarely innocent love songs with them.
"This is a new song called 'I Loved You Wrong' and it's kind of about being in love and fucking it up," said 20-year-old Irglova during a break.
See, what makes The Swell Season's love songs so freakin' touching is that they're truthful and mostly about how screwed-up love makes us. And what makes the duo's live shows so awesome is that Hansard and Irglova put themselves out there for us, both in their songs and in the stories they tell in between. In fact, Hansard's stories, in particular, have become part of The Swell Season's shtick.
"This one's about being in a relationship," the 38-year-old said, "and it might not be in a great place, but it's gotten very comfortable. You guys are watching telly a lot and you're not talking too much [insert 10 minutes more of Hansard's speech here]. So, this song, I guess, is all about the idea that your partner buys a book, an inspirational book in the mind/body/spirits section of the bookstore, they read the book and realize that this comfortable place isn't where they want to be…."
Hansard went on for a good 10 minutes more before some asshole in the audience yelled, "Play the song!" which was met by a resounding "Booo" from the audience. Hansard called the guy a Republican and went on to tell his infamous story about a dog, which was captured on one of The Frame's live albums.
The story was a good one, and the song that eventually followed was great.—Kinsee Morlan

Steiner and Treitschke
Last week someone e-mailed me a post that Peter Staudenmaier wrote to the Waldorf Critics list nearly a year ago about a page I put up on this site. It took me a little while to get around to investigating it, but upon careful examination of the claims that Peter Staudenmaier has made, I find it appropriate to write the following response.
I make mistakes. Flipping the "e" and the "i" in Treitschke is the type of typing error I am prone to. I went through the site and found eight instances where I had misspelled Treitschke, writing Trietschke instead. Sloppy? Yes. But this hardly constitutes misspelling the name "in several different ways", precisely the type of exaggeration that Staudenmaier is prone to, and cannot resist, when he gets on his polemical rolls.
Now to the central argument: Can Rudolf Steiner be said to be "an admirer" of Heinrich von Treitschke? Well now, I suppose that really depends on how you define "admirer". For Staudenmaier's purposes, any hint of sympathy to any aspect of Treitschke's work is sufficient to merit the label, so that this "admiration" can be rapidly and broadly extended to every aspect of Treitschke's work, and especially the nationalistic portion, whether this is actually merited or not. This continues his "guilt by association" line of argumentation that he has been using against Steiner since he first published "Anthroposophy and Ecofascism".
So I will make a concession. I will confess that it is inaccurate to state without qualification that Steiner was not an admirer of Treitschke. For there were some aspects of Treitschke's work that Steiner did profess to find useful. On the other hand, it is just as inaccurate to state that Steiner was an admirer of Treitschke, for this too is misleading. It is just as misleading because Treitschke left a large body of work ranging across a number of topics, though German and especially 19th century Prussian history was his specialty. Today he is virtually unknown in the English-speaking world, and therefore can be easily defined as a one dimensional character. During his lifetime he was a very famous and highly popular historian and politician.
When I wrote about Steiner's relationship to Treitschke in the article that Staudenmaier attacks, I concluded with the following statement:
Steiner did speak favorably of certain aspects of Treitschke's works in a number of places, but his praise was always narrowly directed. And Steiner was careful not to praise Treitschke's person, only aspects of his work. Thus I do not feel that it is accurate to call Steiner an admirer of Treitschke.
As is typical, Peter Staudenmaier did not engage in the subtlety of my argument, but rather made a quick straw man and proceeded to knock that down rather vigorously. Staudenmaier writes that I insist "that Steiner, who met Treitschke personally and referred to him frequently throughout his anthroposophical works, did not admire Treitschke". You would think from reading this sentence Treitschke was a frequent subject of praise and discussion in Steiner's nearly 6000 lectures. But that is simply not the case. There are under 20 references in these 330 volumes, a statistically highly infrequent occurrence. Staudenmaier has searched through these, and as usual as selectively quoted from a few trying to make the case that Steiner did utter laudatory statements about the person of Treitschke. Why is this important? Again it is to establish the "guilt by association" argument. What Staudenmaier has utterly failed to find, and this is because there are not any, are blanket endorsements of Treitschke nationalism. These simply do not exist, because Steiner was a vigorous and lifelong anti-nationalist. What you do find is what I described in my article over three years ago: narrowly directed praise to certain aspects of Treitschke work.
Still, to make the case against Steiner, Staudenmaier quotes extensively from a lecture Steiner delivered on January 13, 1917, (Zeitgeschichtliche Betrachtungen - Das Karma der Unwahrhaftigkeit - 2. Teil GA 174; Dornach: Rudolf Steiner Verlag, 1983) attempting to show Steiner's great praise of the man. But Staudenmaier could not help selectively quoting, for if he actually reproduced or summarized Steiner's entire description, he would undermine his own case. In the lecture where Steiner supposedly praised Treitschke extensively, Steiner's description starts off with an explanation that Treitschke was the subject of a demonic possession (page 109, the page before Staudenmaier begins his quotations). Now you may think what you wish of Steiner's diagnosis of demonic possession, but that is hardly the way someone starts off praising an author whom they admire. It was, Steiner explained "not an evil demon, but nonetheless a demon" (109). Treitschke was driven, Steiner explains, by a demonic force towards a materialistic explanation of history. Anyone familiar with Steiner's praise of the spiritual perspective and frequently expressed concern with materialism would hardly consider this to be praise of Treitschke's person. But Staudenmaier, our polemical historian, has omitted this entire section as he tries through selective quotation to make a case to the opposite.
It is further interesting to note what of all of Treitschke's work Steiner singles out for praise. Steiner praises Treitschke's essay on freedom, and another essay in which Treitschke discusses the necessary limitations on the power of the state over the individual. Hardly the type of work that nationalists focus on. Nationalism, after all, is the philosophy that the nation and the state representing the nation has primacy over the individual.
So while Staudenmaier has clipped his citations such that they might be plausibly read as possibly indicating some form of praise for Treitschke, if you read the portions that he has left out, they are the contextualizing and critical portions. This is a point I have frequently raised in analyzing Staudenmaier's writing: namely that he selectively quotes, which in itself is necessary, but that he does so in such a way that the original passages are distorted, frequently into the opposite of the authors original statements.
So while Steiner delivered a lecture in which he sought to explain Treitschke work and significance both critically and from the occult perspective, describing Treitschke as possessed by a demonic force and also criticizing aspects of Treitschke work, Staudenmaier has selected only the slightly positive sentences, reproducing them as full paragraphs, to make his point. This is nothing less than intellectually dishonest. Steiner did not "specifically and effusively praised Treitschke's contributions to the German national project". The closest that he remotely came was to pointing out that a nationalist historian such as Treitschke is understandably appreciated by the Germans in a different way than by non-Germans. Had Staudenmaier left in the full context, it would be clear that Steiner was speaking in an objective way about international criticism of Treitschke and the German reaction to it; he was not taking sides. And Steiner, I must again emphasize, was emphatically not endorsing Treitschke's nationalism. This is clear if you read the entire lecture, and not the heavily edited version Staudenmaier has offered and interpreted in trying to make his point.
Peter Staudenmaier likes to complain that anthroposophists do not "get" his arguments, and he practically laments the fact that they frequently do not agree with him. But there is a reason for that which goes beyond stubbornness, ignorance, or stupidity. His argumentation is faulty, his research highly selective, and his treatment of sources is repeatedly, deliberately, and blatantly dishonest. The only way that Peter Staudenmaier is able to continue to plausibly argue his tired and mistaken point of view is that almost none of his readers are able to check his citations against the original, and a few that are generally do not want to spend their lives as his research assistant. Were he to attempt such a hatchet job on an intellectual figure who worked primarily in English, he would be laughed off the Internet.
I will stand by my original summary of Steiner's relationship to Treitschke, even as I concede that some of my phrasing can be as misleading as Staudenmaier's.
Steiner did speak favorably of certain aspects of Treitschke's works in a number of places, but his praise was always narrowly directed. And Steiner was careful not to praise Treitschke's person, only aspects of his work. Thus I do not feel that it is accurate to call Steiner an admirer of Treitschke.

Is Wolfgang Treher a reliable author?
Peter Staudenmaier is certainly the master of spin. Consider a post to the Waldorf Critics list that someone forwarded to me recently. In this post Peter Staudenmaier discusses the obscure 1966 self-published book "Hitler, Steiner, Schreber" by the psychologist Wolfgang Treher. Treher attempted to link Daniel Paul Schreber (d. 1911) with the very notorious Hitler and the obscure Steiner by their supposed symptoms of a common psychological illness.
When Peter Staudenmaier first trotted out Treher's book in his poorly researched "Anthroposophy and Ecofascism" it was to suggest that Steiner's ideas about cultural progression were the basis for Hitler's concentration camps, a perverse insinuation made by Treher in 1966 which any historian ought to be able to find problematic. After all, Steiner was on a right wing hit list in the early 1920s and there was an intense mutual dislike between Steiner in the early fascists. Staudenmaier ignored the remainder of Treher's book, including its central thesis, that Steiner was schizophrenic. When I first published my criticism of Staudenmaier's article in 2005, here is what I wrote:
This "important" work [Treher's book] was considered so scholarly that it was unable to find a publisher, so it was self-published by the author. That Staudenmaier finds it so compelling is an indication of the degree of critical thinking he brings to his investigation. Treher's thesis is that both Steiner and Hitler suffered from schizophrenia; that a mania, a physiological disturbance was at the root of both of their worldviews. Like Staudenmaier, Treher admits he is uninterested in understanding Steiner's views; they are sufficiently odd to him to automatically indicate mental illness. According to Treher, the onset of Steiner's psychosis started already when Steiner wrote his Ph.D. thesis in philosophy. Steiner tackled one of the oldest problems in philosophy: epistemology, or how the thinking mind comes to terms with outer reality. Treher takes this as evidence of schizophrenia – a split in Steiner's mind between reality and delusion. This conclusion, by someone who admittedly never read the work in question, is mind-bogglingly moronic. Perhaps this is the reason why no publisher would touch it. Further "evidence" is demonstrated by a statement by a friend of Steiner's that once Steiner started lecturing on Theosophy, he was "changed" and no longer had time for old friends. This supposedly proves that Steiner was a full-blown schizophrenic the moment he started lecturing on esoteric subjects. If Staudenmaier can find Treher "incisive" this can only be because he is either so predisposed to believing anything negative that he finds about Steiner as to completely overlook Treher's considerable problems, or he knows of this book only by reputation among anti-anthroposophist writers, and has not actually read it himself. I suspect the latter, since none of Treher's points are mentioned in the biographical overview of Steiner offered by Staudenmaier.
Years later Staudenmaier is still trying to defend Treher's posthumous retroactive psychoanalytic forensics. The main difference is that he appears at this point have actually looked at the book. He does admit that he does not care much for Treher's central thesis; that is, Steiner does not appear to of been an insane schizophrenic. But that will not stop him from arguing that the book is important, especially for the part where Treher attempts to make links between Steiner's philosophy and Hitler's National Socialism.
So how does Staudenmaier spin Treher's influence? First, he argues for the books broad availability. I had called it obscure and very difficult to find. Staudenmaier counters that "dozens" of libraries carry it. From what I was able to determine, exactly six research university libraries have a copy in Germany. That is, six university libraries that have between 10 and 30 million volumes each have a single copy on the shelf. These libraries are accessible to university students, professors, and visiting scholars such as Peter Staudenmaier. Under certain circumstances, the volume is available through interlibrary loan. In addition, a couple large municipal library systems list a copy as available, including New York, Toronto, Frankfurt and a few others. So I suppose that dozens of libraries have access to it, through an interlibrary loan system. And arguably, that means it is fairly "easy" to get. Unless you are not in Germany or do not have a German student ID, in which case it's virtually impossible (unless you happen to live in New York City, or Toronto). I asked several people in Germany to find me a copy, and the only person was able to was a friend who is enrolled in the University there. And he was only able to get it because he photocopied the whole thing for me; actually purchasing a copy was not possible (the book is, after all, over 40 years out of print).
Now, why is the book even in university libraries in Germany? Because it is a landmark volume in the history of Rudolf Steiner scholarship? Actually, no. The part of the book that has kept it available is the section on Daniel Paul Schreber. Schreber was a German judge who later in life succumbed to paranoid schizophrenia, was institutionalized and died. Along the way he wrote an autobiography memoir of his descent into madness. But what really kept his name alive in history was the fact that Sigmund Freud used him as a case study. As Freud's theories aged and started to attract widespread criticism, Schreber became a point of interest because of his connection to Freud. That is, scholars attempting to discredit Freud went back to look at Schreber's experiences in order to re-examine Freud's theories. And thus Treher's book is occasionally useful, and occasionally cited in this context. The fact that it contains Hitler and Steiner is actually incidental. This is demonstrated by all of the citations Staudenmaier he brings up to show the book's importance. The citations are primarily in articles that reference Freud and Schreber; none of them mention Steiner.
Staudenmaier provides the following list with comments:
Ellen Gibbels, "Hitlers Nervenkrankheit: Eine neurologisch- psychiatrische Studie", Vierteljahrshefte für Zeitgeschichte vol. 42 no. 2 (1994) pp. 155-220.
Gibbels discusses Treher's book on p. 219, disagreeing with its diagnosis of Hitler as schizophrenic.
Zvi Lothane, In Defense of Schreber (London 1992) discusses Treher's book on p. 373, criticizing its treatment of both Schreber and Hitler. Neither Gibbels nor Lothane dismisses the book; instead they explain why they do not share its conclusions.
Gerhard Grimm, "Führung, Struktur und Aussenpolitik des "Dritten Reiches": Ein Literaturbericht", Politische Studien no. 198, vol. 22 (1971) pp. 423-434. Grimm reviews Treher's book on p. 424, a more thorough discussion than Gibbels or Lothane. Grimm's review is very positive, and briefly mentions the material on Steiner.
Fritz Redlich, Hitler: Diagnosis of a Destructive Prophet (Oxford 1999) cites Treher's book respectfully on p. 333 and disagrees with its diagnosis of schizophrenia.
James Webb, The Occult Establishment (Chicago 1976) discusses Treher's book on p. 493, particularly its "detailed and convincing comparison of the private worlds of Rudolf Steiner and Adolf Hitler." Webb's appraisal of The book is very positive. On p. 515 Webb again mentions Treher's book and especially highlights its treatment of Steiner, remarking aptly: "I would not accept it all, but there is much of great interest in Treher's account."
Six citations in 40 years are supposed to indicate a book is important? And virtually all of these citations disagree with the author and find his conclusions misguided if not silly? This is supposed to establish that we should take the book seriously when it talks about Steiner, even though scholars do not pretend to take it seriously when dealing with the retroactive diagnosis of schizophrenia in the case of Hitler? And Schreber scholars find it misguided in its treatment of Schreber? We are supposed to accept that an author who is wrong on two counts is actually right on the third? Now that is an example of spin. If the best scholarly endorsement of the Steiner section is that "I would not accept it all, but there is much of great interest in Treher's account" then this is indeed a profoundly insightful scholarly book.
So is it fair to call Treher's book obscure and unbalanced? Well, first it is never been translated out of German and to any other language. Second, it was self-published and exists only in a few university libraries and other very large collections. Third, it is fairly easy to access if you are a scholar physically in Germany, but if you are anywhere else except New York or Toronto, good luck. What about the balanced portion? Every single author to cite it disagrees with the least part if not all of the portions they looked at. Most of them skipped the Steiner part. And overall, very few authors cite it (six in 40 years).
Obscure and unbalanced? Or incisive mainstream scholarship? We report, you decide.

|Rejuval Skin (2014 Editors Choice)
|Facial Toner
|IQ Derma
|Hydractive 24
|Meaningful Beauty
Hydractive 24 is made available through Dinur. It is an anti-wrinkle moisturizer that claims to reduce wrinkles by sixty-two percent, diminish fine lines by thirty-two percent, provide sixty percent moisture balance for twenty-four hours, smooth and soften skin texture by forty-five percent, and improve skin elasticity by thirty-one percent. Hydractive 24 Age Defying Moisturizer is said to stimulate cell activity and strengthen basic moisturizing elements found naturally in the skin. The product is supposed to continue working for twenty-four hours to provide hydration and act as a solution to reverse the signs of aging skin. Hydractive 24 also has an 'Eye & Lip Release Serum' that is used to fight wrinkles, specifically in the eye and lip areas where skin is more fragile.
Product Details
A brief look for product ingredients shows that Hydractive 24 products contain Vitamin E, Pro-Vitamin B5, Shea Butter, and Allantoin. We were unable to find a complete list of ingredients. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that is beneficial for the skin, but research shows it works best when taken internally as opposed to when used topically on the skin. Allantoin is typically used to heal wounds, and Shea Butter has been known to soften the skin when used regularly. The anti-aging products from Hydractive 24 make substantial claims about how well it works, and the website does post a customer testimonial which seems to be in agreement with those claims. Hydractive 24 does not appear to contain the most potent or active ingredients found in other anti-aging products which have been proven to work to reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging.
The Good
- Hydractive 24 contains Vitamin E, a proven antioxidant.
- Favorable customer testimonials are available that say Hydractive 24 products do improve the appearance of wrinkles.
The Bad
- We were unable to substantiate the claims made by Hydractive 24 products because scientific data is not posted on the company's website.
- Before and after pictures are not available to show the difference that Hydractive 24 can make to aging skin.
- Hydractive 24 does not offer any sort of money back guarantee to consumers in the event that the product does not work as desired.
The Bottom Line
The bottom line is that Hydractive 24 anti-wrinkle products make pretty big claims without providing proof of such significant results. One customer testimonial on a website does not prove that the product is capable of reducing wrinkles in such a drastic manner. The product is moderately priced, so if you do decide to purchase it and it does not work as you expect it too, at least you wouldn't have invested a fortune on it. Hydractive 24 should be more specific when listing its active ingredients so that consumers know what they are purchasing.

* Please read TIA's other articles on What Is It: Preservatives and Parabens and Are They Safe? and What Is It: Natural Preservative Alternatives to Phenoxyethanol and Parabens
Phenoxyethanol, also known as Ethylene Glycol Monophenyl Ether, is a glycol ether and bactericide (that functions as a disinfectant, antiseptic or antibiotic) that is primarily used as a preservative in cosmetics and beauty products. It is also seen as a fragrance additive, a fixative for perfumes, an insect repellent ingredient in sunscreens, a topical antiseptic ingredient, and solvent (Wikipedia).
Phenoxyethanol has become a widely used ingredient because of its previously positive reputation as a relatively gentle preservative that is considered non-irritating; it is also one of the few preservatives that does not release formaldehyde. The CIR approves it for use and it is most often used as a preservative because of its ability to kill bacteria and stabilize formulas, extending their shelf life and making them safe for use (Source).
Safety Measures/Side Effects:
However. Studies have shown that Phenoxyethanol can be an extreme irritant to the eyes and skin, and can even cause blistering; it is hazardous in the case of ingestion and inhalation as well. The Cosmetic Database rates it as a moderate hazard and notes cancer, allergic reactions, skin, eye and lung irritation, organ and neurotoxicity as possible effects of using products containing Phenoxyethanol. It has shown effects on sensory organs even at low doses, and brain and nervous systems at moderate doses in animals, and causes cell mutation.
According to research, the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) data sheets show "chromosomal changes and genetic mutation effects in testing as well as testicular atrophy and reproductive damage in mice."
Recommended Products w/ Phenoxyethanol:
LATHER Eucalyptus Foaming Foot Scrub with Pumice ($18), Michael Todd True Organics Blue Green Algae Toner ($18/7.8oz in the shop), Stemulation Facial Serum (0.5oz/$135) Medik8 Growth Factor Youth Activating Serum (1oz/$185 in the shop).

Tackles are an inexact science, to be sure. Teams award them differently, so it's not always as simple as comparing Player A from School A to Player B from School B. Whatever the case, someone will finish the season atop the tackles chart. Who will it be? Tom Dienhart, Sean Merriman and Brent Yarina offer their picks in this post.

2013 leader: Ryan Shazier, Ohio State – 143
2014 returning leader: Steve Longa, Rutgers – 123
Tom Dienhart: T.J. Neal, LB, Illinois. As a redshirt sophomore in 2013, he notched 38 stops. He then earned most improved defensive players in the spring. Now penciled in to start in the middle, Neal will pile up the tackles on a defense that will funnel a lot of action his way.
Sean Merriman: Chi Chi Ariguzo, LB, Northwestern. This is a guy who continues to fly under the radar, despite putting up huge numbers in back-to-back seasons. In fact, not counting Rutgers' Steve Longa, Ariguzo is the Big Ten's top returning tackler (106). Pat Fitzgerald's team returns a lot of talent in the secondary, which makes me believe that opposing teams will try to run it. Good luck getting by the guy who not only has the best name in the conference, but is also the top tackler. Don't be surprised to see Ariguzo record 120-plus tackles in 2014. Yes, he's that good.
Brent Yarina: Mason Monheim, LB, Illinois. Monheim was around the ball a lot last season en route to tallying 97 tackles, but he should have no trouble besting that total this fall. Someone must replace playmaker Jonathan Brown's team-leading 119 tackles, and Moneheim, the owner of 183 tackles in two seasons, is more than capable. The Illini defense figures to be on the field a lot this season, too, providing Monheim with ample opportunities.

If Hillary Clinton runs for president—as she almost certainly will—the former secretary of state is the overwhelming favorite for the Democratic nomination in 2016. But the sense of inevitability about her candidacy took a hit yesterday when she sought to back away from the quarrel she picked over the weekend with President Obama.
As I wrote on Monday, Clinton threw down the gauntlet to the president on foreign policy in an interview with Jeffrey Goldberg in the Atlantic. No one doubted that she would at some point revert to the more centrist views on the world that contrasted with those of Obama during their 2008 primary battle. But Clinton's willingness to judge the president's decisions harshly seemed to mark a turning point in their complicated relationship. When she rightly damned Obama's Syria policy as a "failure" that led directly to the current ISIS catastrophe in Iraq, that demonstrated her belief that she needed to distance herself from an increasingly unpopular incumbent heading into 2016.
Given the chaos that has erupted across the globe on the president's watch, more distance from him would make sense for a Democrat who may not want the voters to think they are casting a ballot for a third term for Obama in 2016. But once the White House starting to push back strongly against her criticism and some in the liberal base of the party began to seethe about her flipping back to a "neoconservative" line about Iraq and in support of Israel, Clinton blinked.
Rather than stick to her guns and dare the left to try and oppose her, Clinton was quick to try and patch up the quarrel with the White House, calling the president and reportedly suggesting that the pair "hug it out" when they each other at a Martha's Vineyard soiree they are both attending this week.
Maintaining some kind of détente with a sitting president who is the unchallenged leader of the Democrats and the idol of its base makes sense. But there was something craven in the unseemly speed with which Clinton sought to diffuse the controversy. Try as her team of media spinners might, there's no disguising the fact that her attempt to cut straight to general-election campaign tactics without first having to curtsy the left-wing base of the Democrats isn't going over very well.
There may be no credible Democratic alternatives currently willing to put their names up in opposition to Clinton right now. Whether they love the Clintons or not, most Democrats have bought into her compelling narrative about being the first female president as the best way to hold onto the White House. The Clintons' ability to raise money and play hardball politics has also intimidated potential candidates into staying out of the race. But, as I also noted yesterday, that won't stop liberal outliers like Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders from mounting symbolic ideological protest candidacies that could prove troublesome even if no one on the left thinks he should be president.
But the Hillary broadside, followed by her quick retreat, has reminded many in her party that she may not be the political colossus that her admirers in the mainstream press insist she has become.
Like her 2008 candidacy, Clinton's 2016 "inevitability" is based on the idea that she is so strong that no one other than a marginal figure like Sanders would dare oppose her. But liberals are starting to recall that while Barack Obama's personal political magic was the main cause of her downfall in 2008, it was only made possible by the fact that most Democrats disliked her centrist foreign policy views.
While we shouldn't expect this to be the last time Clinton seeks to create more daylight between herself and the man who was her boss for four years, her decision to once again play the person with adult foreign-policy views is bound to foment anger on the left. That means that it might be a mistake to think that Sanders is the only Democrat who believes a leftist challenge to Clinton makes sense. The more people that think about that, the more likely it will be that someone may step forward who could hurt her more than an avowed socialist. Clinton hopes this kerfuffle will only be a blip on the radar in her inevitable long march to the Democratic nomination and the presidency. But it might also be the moment when the 2008 dynamic that sunk her starts to kick in again even without an Obama to take the former first lady down.

Violent wind storms raged across France in the winter of 1999 causing unprecedented damage both to the natural environment and to historic structures. Thousands of trees were uprooted and ancient allées and groves destroyed. Innumerable châteaux lost roof tiles or chimneys and suffered structural damage as the cyclone passed by.
In its wake, there was great need for urgent intervention. Water damage was extensive, menacing fragile interiors, and gardens and parks needed clearing and replanting. French Heritage Society was in the vanguard of the effort to repair and restore, and contributed $130,000 for Storm Damaged Châteaux.

Personal Liberty Poll
Look, lots of us foolish enough to get a college education availed ourselves of Federal student aid, whether in the form of grants, loans, work-study programs or some combination of the three. It's a demonstrable fact of human nature that if low-hanging fruit is available (whether it's helpful in reaching the higher branches or not), people will seize it.
But the easy availability of Federal student aid has opened a Pandora's box of inflated college costs, administrative redundancies, diluted academic rigor, inverted institutional priorities and severely devalued diplomas that's reached a historic zenith (or nadir, depending on your perspective) under President Barack Obama. Government-backed student borrowing has increased more than 450 percent since Obama began his first term, outpacing the (already accelerating) rate of borrowing during the George W. Bush Administration by more than 500 percent.
For the progressive White House, it's not enough.
The Department of Education is putting First Lady Michelle Obama at the front of a new public relations campaign designed to make sure anyone and everyone who's eligible (and that's a lot of people, under the Obama Administration's new virtual monopoly in the college lending market) will lap up every college entitlement available, leaving nothing on the table.
"Don't leave money on the table," (see there?) the first lady told a group of Virginia high school students at the campaign's kickoff appearance last week. "Almost everyone is eligible for some form of financial aid, and all you have to do to access that aid is fill out this one little form. It's so simple."
The First Lady's soft sell played up the value of a college degree, neglecting that a traditional college education is less valuable, whether as a vocational primer or gateway to understanding the role of the individual within the context of our rich Western tradition, than it's ever been.
"With a good education, you can get a job that pays a decent salary or more," she said. "You can provide for your family, which is key. And you can become whatever you dream of becoming, which is the kind of freedom that I want all of you to have."
That "kind of freedom" comes at an unspoken price in the present financial aid free-for-all: indentured debt servitude, for both schools and students, to the Federal government – all for a product that may be losing its value almost as quickly as the dollars they owe.

At the top of the list is the friendly feud at dinnertime between my mom and dad over who knows what.
My parents, sister, grandmother and I were seated at the kitchen table, chowing down on a roast of some sort, (After all these years I have no idea if it was roast beef, chicken or pork, but it really doesn't matter; all that matters is that the roast was accompanied by mashed potatoes and gravy.)
My mom and dad were sitting across from each other and they got into a dispute about something, I wasn't paying much attention because it was a friendly fight and I wasn't worried it might develop into something worse. They were going back and forth in teasing voices about something and each was determined to win the debate. My father resorted to facts, which my mother considered unfair, because they proved my dad was right.
Facts or not, my mom was not about to be beaten. A mischievous look on her face, she scooped up a spoonful of mashed potatoes and gravy and, holding the spoon by the end of the handle, smiled sweetly at my dad. Then she flicked the spoon and a potatoand-gravy missile zinged across the table and landed with a splat across my father's face.
My dad looked my mom in disbelief as a glob of potatoes and gravy dripped from his face. A moment later his astonished expression gave way to a grin and soon everyone at the table was roaring in laughter. I don't think I ever saw my mom laugh so hard.
When we were kids, my mom used to take me and my sister into the basement, one after the other, to wash our hair in the huge stationary tubs we had down there. We think she did it to take out her frustrations on us.
The hair-washing was actually enjoyable: My mom would douse our hair with water, add VO5 shampoo and massage it into our scalp. The almosthot water she rinsed us with used to send tingles down my spine, it felt so good.
Then came the part we hated, when she'd dry our hair. It's hard to put into words, but my mom would rub a towel so hard and so fast that our heads bobbed around on our neck, coming perilously close to snapping. At least that's how it felt. She would manage to get our hair almost completely dry with nothing more than a towel and her technique. It felt like she put our heads against a pair of buffing wheels that spun in opposite directions.
My neck cracks whenever I think about it.
My mom didn't cook often usually my grandmother would prepare dinner while my parents were at work — but she was an excellent cook. I'd love to taste her homemade spaghetti sauce once more; today I usually just dump sauce out of a bottle. Most of the things she made I've been able to duplicate, as I'm a decent chef myself, but the one I've never mastered was her flank steak roll-up. I've read recipes and tried them, but she did something different than anything I've read, because it tasted way better.
What I remember is that she took flank steak, bacon and green peppers, I believe — it's been 35 years since I've had it— rolled it all up and broiled it. The result was the greatest thing I'd ever tasted in my life. When I returned home for Christmas during my first year of college, I walked into the house and smelled flank steak. She'd knew I loved it and had it sitting hot on the table for my arrival.
That moment touched me and has stayed with me so much that it's impossible not to tear up when thinking about it.
I remember my mom taking me to the movies on Saturday afternoons while my dad was working to see ones she wanted to see, even if I was a bit young for them at the time. I never minded. There probably were more, but the three I remember are the James Bond flick "Thunderball" "American Graffiti" and "Getaway" with Steve McQueen and Ali McGraw.
Best of all, she took me to see Elvis in the very early '70s. My mom had tons of Elvis albums and had a lifelong crush on him.
I remember watching Sunday afternoon Elvis marathons on WKYCTV3 Channel 3 with my mom while munching on popcorn and chips.I think I saw all of his early movies.
There are so many more things I recalled about my mom while writing this column. I had forgotten so much.
I'm glad I remembered.
Happy Mother's Day mom, and to all moms everywhere!

Who We Are | Fast Facts | Frequently Asked Questions
In 1960, McKee Foods founder O.D. McKee was trying to come up with a catchy name for their new family-pack cartons of snack cakes. Packaging supplier Bob Mosher suggested using a family member's name. Thinking of what could be a good fit for the brand, O.D. arrived at the name of his 4-year-old granddaughter Debbie. Inspired by a photo of Debbie in play clothes and her favorite straw hat, he decided to use the name Little Debbie® and the image of her on the logo. Not until the first cartons were being printed did Debbie's parents, Ellsworth and Sharon McKee, discover that their daughter was the namesake of the new brand.
The first family-pack was produced in August of that year and consisted of the original snack cake, the Oatmeal Creme Pie. Family-packs were one of the first multiple-item baked goods available with individually wrapped products. The cost per carton was only 49 cents. By combining a quality product with outstanding value, Little Debbie® quickly became a member of America's households. After its initial introduction, more than 14 million cakes were sold within 10 months. While the Oatmeal Creme Pie was the original Little Debbie® snack cake, there were 14 different varieties by 1964 including the ever-popular Nutty Bars® Wafer Bars and Swiss Cake Roll.
Since 1960, Little Debbie® snacks have remained a value leader. Currently, they sell for less than other leading brands while providing quality products. More than 75 varieties are available. Little Debbie® snacks are available in all 50 states, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico, as well as on U.S. military bases throughout the world.

Publication Summary
Report 91-22: Proposed Construction of the Western Nevada County Center, Sierra Joint Community College District: A Report to the Governor and Legislature in Response to a Request for Capital Funds for a Permanent Off-Campus Center in the Grass Valley/Nevada City Area
Published by The California Postsecondary Education CommissionDecember 1991View Full Publication
The California Legislature has agreed not to approve the expenditure of State funds for the acquisition of sites or construction of new community colleges, branches or off campus centers unless recommended by the Commission under this authority, the Commission has reviewed a proposal from the Sierra joint Community College District for a permanent off campus center of Sierra College in the Grass Valley/Nevada City are of western Nevada County. The Commission agrees with the Chancellor's Office of the California Community College that a definite need exists for a permanent center in the grass valley area, but it has concluded that the Sierra district's environmental impact report for the center did not adequately assess the potential impact on traffic of an enrollment of more than 950 full time equivalent students at the site proposed for the center. Therefore, the Commission has approved the following recommendations in this report;
- The Commission approves the building of a permanent Western Nevada County Center with a capacity sufficient to serve 950 full time equivalent students the capacity proposed in the Sierra joint Community College District's February 1991 Project Planning Guide for phase one.
- If the Sierra joint Community College District decides to expand the Center beyond a capacity
of 950 full time equivalent students, it should:
- Reexamine the transportation study that was included in its environmental impact report in such a manner as to address the traffic impacts of a center serving a larger number of students;
- Consult fully with the City grass Valley, including its City Council and other appropriate agencies, in conjunction with the above reexamination;
- Request the Demographic Research Unit of the Department of Finance to review the Unit's original 1986 enrollment projections for the Western Nevada County Center in light of the 1990 census and the district's most recent enrollment reports and report its findings to the Sierra joint Community College District, the Chancellor's Office, and the Commission; and
- Resubmit a request for review and approval by the Director of the Commission prior to the State's funding an expansion of the center beyond the 950 full time equivalent student capacity

Step 1: Gather up those materiels.
2 alligator clips ( may substitute heat shrink tubing, but this is easier)
1 Pair of wire strippers and cutters, I used gardening scissors because of their ability to do both.
1 Pair of cheep headphones, I used some westjet ones.
1 Speaker, mine is just a cheep sony one.
That's it!
Gather them up and continue!
Step 2: Stripping.
Then strip of about half a centimeter.
Done that?
Then let's continue!
like the macro mode on my camera?
Step 3: Testing the connection
Now that you've done this, you're done! If you have any problems, comment down below and ill help.
I realize I've done the opposite, but it will work just as well
not trying to be rude, but this set-up would be better as long as you don't exceed 3watts bcoz it might damage your ipod
If you want something cheap and fun to play with, buy this:
running any amplifier at less than half the rated ohmage cause damage to it.
and about those connections its stereo not mono so each of the wires that go to each earphone have a negative and a positive so you really should hook it up on only one of the wires (preferably the right side) and use the negative and positive on that side. if you don't you could accidentally short one channel without realizing it has happened. and that could damage the amplifier as well.
Are you sure about that?
And I said to use cheap speakers.
a ohmage too low for a amp causes it try and push too much electricty through it so it gets fried.
think of a battery they can go nice and happy on a decent load, but put something that takes too much current on it and it will heat up and get damaged.
Please Help!!!
Try, try, and try again is all I can say.

Happy Trails Cowboy Church has new facility
South Carolina's first ever cowboy church, Happy Trails Cowboy Church (HTCC), continued its trail-blazing ways by becoming one of the first cowboy churches in the state to open its own permanent church facility. HTCC recently hosted an official relocation celebration to commemorate the event.
Founded in 2006, Happy Trails has pioneered the concept of the cowboy church – one set up specifically to meet the needs of the equine community – in South Carolina. Rather than meeting on Sundays, when most horse people are showing their horses, participating in events or trail riding, the congregation meets on Tuesday evenings to accommodate the equine community's schedule and features a "come-as-you-are" casual dress policy, music geared toward the cowboy lifestyle and special events and activities with a Western flavor.
The pastor is Doug Jones, who has led the congregation since 2009.
"While all churches are special, we believe that Happy Trails Cowboy Church is a unique setting for a congregation with different needs and interests," said Jones. "We are proud of our reputation as trailblazer, and we are thrilled to take our ministry to the next level by having a permanent location to call our own. We also hope to share our message with as many people as possible by welcoming church visitors and those without a current church home."
Happy Trails Cowboy church is now located at 9530 Augusta Road, Greenville, SC 29669. The public is invited to its services, which are held at 7:30 p.m. every Tuesday. For more information, please visit www.happytrailscowboychurch.org.
