'The New York Times' interviews Linda Rosenkrantz, author of 'Talk' August 26, 2015
New York Times writer John Williams recently interviewed Linda Rosenkrantz, author of the NYRB Classic Talk, for the Arts Beat section about the process of writing her groundbreaking novel. In this feature, Williams asks Rosenkrantz about the initial inspiration behind Talk, for which the author transcribed hours of recorded, candid conversations between her friends and then edited the 1,500 pages of raw material into the book it is today. Rosenkrantz shares with Williams about the many rejection letters she first received for the book, the reaction of friends to the final—and very provocative—product, and what Rosenkrantz thinks of today's candid depictions of female friendship from Girls to Broad City.

Upcoming Events with Leonard Gardner on the East and West Coasts August 18, 2015
Fat City is Leonard Gardner's novel of defiance and struggle, of the potent promise of the good life and the desperation and drink that waylay those whom it eludes. Set in Stockton, California, it is the book of which Joan Didion said, "Gardner has got it exactly right."
On Wednesday, September 9, at 7 p.m., Gardner will discuss Fat City with Peter Orner at Book Passage, Corte Madera (51 Tamal Vista Blvd). Click here for details.

"A Publisher as Salvager of Bygone Delights" August 17, 2015
We were pleased to see Larry Rohter's profile of New York Review Books in a recent Saturday Arts section of The New York Times. Rohter describes NYRB's editorial principles as providing a necessary counterpoint to prevailing tendencies in publishing: "New York Review Books was founded in 1999, when the mainstream American publishing houses [began] paying less attention to their back catalogs, sometimes allowing the rights to books that weren't selling well to lapse, and also cutting back on literature in translation."
Rohter commends NYRB Classics's revival of "ignored or forgotten works," including The Prank, Chekhov's censor-suppressed debut collection of stories, and Walt Whitman's Drum-Taps, available in its unexpurgated form for the first time since its original release in 1865.
"From the beginning, it was our intention to be resolutely eclectic," NYRB Editorial Director Edwin Frank is quoted as saying. "We were picking low-hanging fruit, only no one knew the fruit was out there, hanging from the branches."
Praise for 'The Prince of Minor Writers' July 30, 2015
We're thrilled to receive praise for the NYRB Classics Original The Prince of Minor Writers, a new collection of Max Beerbohm's writings, edited and with an introduction by Phillip Lopate.
Adam Gopnik, who began reading Beerbohm in high school and has "since read, I think, pretty much every line he ever published," wrote in The New Yorker, "The essayist and caricaturist Max Beerbohm was one of the great figures of the late Victorian and Edwardian era in London...People who love reading will always love reading Max, because he mocked so wisely, and read so well."
In The New York Times, Dwight Garner wrote, "As curmudgeons go, Beerbohm was a gentle and self-effacing one. There are very funny broadsides here against walking, against the cult of children, against writing boring letters and against literary toadyism...an intimate kind of warmth does blossom beneath the surface of many of these pieces; he is a man with a full and rippling heart."
NYRB Classics also publishes Beerbohm's Seven Men, with an introduction by John Updike.

Praise for 'Talk' and Upcoming Events with Linda Rosenkrantz June 26, 2015
Publishing on July 7, Linda Rosenkrantz's groundbreaking 1968 Talk is set over the course of a summer spent at the beach. The book offers all the pleasure and startling insight of eavesdropping on the witty and raw conversation between the most intimate of friends.
NYRB is pleased to receive praise for Talk from Anna Wiener writing for The New Republic:
"[A]n unconventional novel that is equal parts experimental literature, confessional memoir, and art project…Talk has re-entered the literary frame after an almost 50-year respite, and its attendant conflicts of art, love, friendship, and connection are still fresh." —Anna Wiener, The New Republic
Lorin Stein, editor of the Paris Review, and Kevin Nguyen, editorial director of The Oyster Review, both named Talk a "Top 10 Summer Books Pick" on NPR's On Point:
"The wonderful New York Review Classics—everything that they publish is worthy of interest, I'm always curious to see what they're coming out with…and in this case it's a novel made up entirely of dialogue between two women best friends, Marsha and Emily, and a friend of theirs, Vincent—a close friend of Marsha's, a gay guy—and its just about them yakking about being in their late-twenties…It's fun, they talk about sex, psychoanalysis, LSD. It's a real '60s book." —Lorin Stein, on NPR's On Point
"NYRB Classics [is] probably one of the best publishes out there…[Talk] reminded me a lot of Renata Adler's Speedboat, which was also written in the 70s…It moves so quickly and so frankly that it still feels very modern." —Kevin Nguyen, on NPR's On Point
Join us for events with Linda Rosenkrantz this July:

Praise for Sasha Abramsky's 'The House of Twenty Thousand Books' June 18, 2015
In The House of Twenty Thousand Books, journalist Sasha Abramsky chronicles the vanished intellectual world of his grandparents, Chimen and Miriam, and their vast library of socialist literature and works of Jewish history.
The House of Twenty Thousand Books will go on sale September 1, 2015. NYRB is pleased to receive the following praise for Abramsky's forthcoming book:
"This is a fierce and beautiful book. It burns with a passion for ideas, the value of history, the need for argument. As a memoir of a grandfather it is sui generis. I loved it." —Edmund de Waal, author of The Hare with Amber Eyes
"Memoir of Jewish intellectual life and universal history alike, told through a houseful of books, their eccentric collectors, and the rooms in which they dwelled…In this entertaining, deeply learned book, Sasha Abramsky adds materially to Chimen and Mimi's 20,000 volumes. On another level, the book, like that grand library, is a narrative of the broad sweep of Jewish diaspora history…If you finish this brilliant, realized book thinking you need to own more books, you're to be forgiven. A wonderful celebration of the mind, history, and love." —Kirkus starred review
"Abramsky's tale begins after his grandfather Chimen's death, with his family faced with the daunting task of cleaning out a London house filled to bursting with books, many of them rare, on Marxism, socialism, and Judaica. Doing so stirred the desire to make sense of this literary and familial legacy, which Abramsky chronicles in a loving but clear-eyed manner." —Publishers Weekly

'An Invitation for Me to Think' Shortlisted for the American Literary Translators Association's National Translation Award October 09, 2014
NYRB is pleased to announce that Alexander Vvedensky's An Invitation for Me to Think, edited and translated from the Russian by Eugene Ostashevsky, additional translation by Matvei Yankelevich, is one of five books shortlisted for this year's National Translation Award, given by the American Literary Translators Association (ALTA).
The judges' announcement is as follows:
"Vvedensky is a marvel: a poet too little known in Russia, and not known at all in the English-speaking world, is revealed as a major 20th-century world poet—wonderful, wonderfully strange, and haunting. The alchemical translation, with its shifty rhymes and non-rhymes, intense images and absent logic, knits and unknits reality before the reader's eyes, walking not a line so much as a live wire."
To see the rest of the shortlist, visit the ALTA website.

Sunday afternoon a tornado tore through Manti causing $2 million damage to the community. On Tuesday, the East Carbon Viking baseball team brought their own whirlwind into the small Sanpete County town as they tore up the Wasatch Academy Tigers 8-2 in the first game of a double header and 8-0 in the second game.
"We played well," said coach Todd McFarland. "But Wasatch Academy was a better team than we expected them to be just the same."
Last week the Tigers had lost by some big margins to another team in Region 18 and it was suspected they might be a pushover this year. But McFarland said they have some good weapons.
"They have one pitcher who can throw five kinds of balls, from a screw ball to a curve ball," he stated. "He kept us on our toes. It was good for us to face someone like him."
Wasatch Academy, which is in Mount Pleasant, does not have a baseball field and plays their home games on a field at Manti High School.
"It isn't Manti's home field it is a practice field," said McFarland. "It's like playing on gravel."
In the first game the Vikes put Tony McFarland on the mound and he had 17 strike outs. He pitched the entire game while East Carbon's batting was cleaning up the opposition. Kevin Cline went 3-4, Shane Wood 2-4, with a triple and Austin Preston went 3-5 and scored three runs.
East Carbon had eight runs on nine hits and no errors in the game. The Tigers had two runs on four hits and one error.
The second game was a five inning affair with Andy Farliano pitching. He scored nine strike outs and went the distance.
Kline once again had one of the big bats as he went 2-3 with a triple, McFarland went 3-3 and scored three runs and Samson Leonard went 2-3 with a double.
Also, new to the team as of last week was Tyson Davis who went 2-3 in his first game with the team and had two RBI's.
"We had a lot of players step up and play well," said the coach. "Samson Leonard played great defensive games behind the plate. We also had great defensive games out of Jesse Stewart and freshman Kyle Leonard as well."
The team is now 3-1 in Region 18 play, with their only loss coming to Dugway a couple of weeks ago. Dugway has since won all their league games as well, but a chink in their armor showed last week when they lost to a not-so-strong Waterford team in a non-region contest.
That means someone from Region 18 could rise up and strike the Mustangs, making it so the Vikes might not have to face the seemingly annual coin flip for state tournament seeding.
Friday East Carbon faces Manila in a non-league contest, but an important game just the same because it is homecoming. Game times are at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.

OGDESNBURG - It sounds so cheery and bright, the Catholic Charities annual Mothers Day Appeal.
But this annual observance on Sunday in churches across the Diocese of Ogdensburg is actually the start of some serious business that Catholic Charities deals with every day, all year.
Helping the needy of the diocese. This year, the goal is to raise $165,000 to help pay for food, counseling services, assistance in paying utility bills and other lifes needs.
Because the need is there and it isnt going away or declining. Catholic Charities served 18,000 people in 2012 and, according to Diocesan Director Sister Donna M. Franklin, there is a daunting 65 percent increase in the need for services.
We need more resources, she said Friday.
Sister Donna has stories to tell about the importance of the Mothers Day Appeal, of why the donations starting on this special Sunday are so important:
@Normal:■ A parent who has worked for 20 years and his or her place of employment shuts down. Looking for work and waiting for unemployment benefits to begin, the bills begin to pile up. The parent becomes anxious, depressed and scared of losing the home and vehicle as financial stability slips away.
■ A 25-year-old veteran suffering physical injuries including a traumatic brain injury. He is home and out of the military, has health insurance through the Veterans Administration, but his wife and child are uninsured and he cannot work due to physical disabilities. His short-term memory is impaired. He has applied for compensation and has been identified as 90 percent eligible, but it is taking months for the paperwork to be processed. He needs financial assistance for food and a utility bill.
Sister Donna is confident that, in spite of the sluggish area economy, the donations will come in.
Just like they have in past years.
People dig down deep, she said. People in the north country are very generous.
One client expressed his gratitude for that generosity in a letter to Catholic Charities.
Thanks to Catholic Charities I felt as if someone cared about what happened to our family when I lost my job, he wrote. I always worked. I always felt good about taking care of my wife and kids. I didnt know what to do when the bills started to get the best of me. I never felt so scared before. I looked for work every day. I dont want to just stay home and live on unemployment. I was becoming depressed. Thanks to Catholic Charities, my family has a roof over their heads and didnt go hungry. I have gotten a job. It doesnt pay like my old job, but it is enough to get by. I dont know what we would have done without Catholic Charities.
Catholic Charities has more than 500 volunteers in the Retired Senior Volunteer Program in Clinton and Essex counties. It is a sponsor of the ombudsman program for long-term care facilities with 11 volunteers in facilities in St. Lawrence and Jefferson counties.
The pregnant and parenting teen program in Franklin County is a program dedicated to helping these young families set goals for themselves and their children. Herkimer and Hamilton counties are also served by Catholic Charities. The agency provided assistance to 13 families in these two counties. Lewis County is served through the Watertown office.
In St. Lawrence County, the Offender Accountability program served 67 men in 2012. The goal of that program is victim safety. This is just a snapshot view of some of the programs offered by Catholic Charities.
Donations can also be sent directly to: Catholic Charities Appeal, 6866 state Highway 37, Ogdensburg, New York 13669. More information can be obtained by calling 393-2255 or checking the website,: www.cathcharities.org.

Apple pie, apple pie cake, Cook, cooking, family time, happy birthday honey, Martha Stewart, recipes, traditions
I summoned my inner pastry chef to design a cake that would be a cross between Honey's favorite dessert and the traditional birthday offering. My inner chef goes by the name Google Search and she's pretty savvy. I've made apple pies before, but I wanted this to be special for the man who gosh, would lasso the moon for me if I asked. I finally found two recipes, one from The Terrace Housewife and the other from Martha Stewart. I, of course, looked at the pictures first, because what's a birthday cake if it isn't pretty? I read the reviews and decided on combining the best parts of both recipes with my own personal twist. I liked Martha's crumbly topping and the fact that T.T.H. had oats and cake incorporated into the
pie cake pie cake. Whatever. Caked mixed in meant I didn't have to make a crust that would probably end up soggy or hard. I crossed my fingers and dove right in. The only downfall to baking something for the first time on a very special occasion was that the girls weren't there to help me figure it out and put it all together, but Jay did a great job of washing dishes while I made an enormous mess of the kitchen.
For The Apple Filling
- 4 Granny Smith (green) Apples & about 3 of your favorite "other" apples to balance the flavors/acidity. I used Fuji apples because they are firm yet sweet.
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 3 medium limes (juiced)
- ¼ cup of granulated sugar (I'm not big on sugar, but you can add up to a cup)
For The Cake Batter
- 2 cups flour (or 1 cup wheat flour and 1 cup self rising flour)
- 1 cup oats (I used instant oatmeal because I'm a mom and that's what was available in the pantry. Sue me.)
- 2 eggs
- ½ tsp salt
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup cold butter cut up in cubes
For The Crumble Topping (It's almost déjà vu, but it's not)
- 1 cup of packed light brown sugar
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup cold butter cut up in cubes
Before you do anything, please preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Thank you. Proceed.
Peel, core and cut up your apples. Try to resist eating them. In a saucepan on medium heat, add apples, sugar, lime juice and cinnamon. Cook the apples down until they are halfway between soft and firm. Hmmm, how do I explain this? They'll look like they got an apple tan and all the sugar from the fruit and what you added will turn brown and saucy.
Turn the heat off and leave them to cool. Don't worry about draining them, you'll need the extra juices for what comes next.
In a bowl, mix the crumble topping ingredients: flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and butter until they look like teeny weeny pebbles. Put that aside.
In another bowl, prepare the cake batter. Ingredients: Combine flour, oats, sugar and butter until they start to look like little pebbles too, but don't stop! Add the eggs and salt and mix some more. Take your cooled apples and fold them into the cake batter, being careful not to smush the apples. Don't stare at it, you'll make it nervous.
Scoop it up and put it in a greased spring form pan; a 9×13 is a good size. Give it some encouragement, tell it how pretty it is. Well…tell it it has potential.
Sprinkle your crumble topping all over the top of your pan and stick it in a 380 degree oven for about 35 – 40 minutes or until you can stick a toothpick in it and have it come out clean and dry. I prefer to use a skewer so I can check for doneness in the center of the cake. Place it on a cooling rack, run a knife along the edges and LET IT COOL. Please, control yourself. Dust with powdered sugar or serve with a scoop of ice cream. Or, you could just lock all the doors, close the curtains, hide in the corner and swallow it whole. Whatever makes you happy, it's your cake. Pie. Pie cake.
I put it in a cake thingamajiggy and marveled at it's beauty. Then I turned around and caught a glimpse of the kitchen sink and commenced Project Cleanup. Sigh.
Here's why it was my prettiest birthday cake ever. Firstly, I suck at decorating cakes and I offer no evidence to convince you otherwise on the basis that I am too embarrassed to show you my horrible attempts at it. Second, it is just a really beautiful looking cake. It's sophisticated and sexy and super yummy. Like my Honey.

Serena Williams continued her run toward a third consecutive major title, beating Maria Kirilenko, 6-2, 6-0, on Monday at the Australian Open to set up an all-American quarterfinal with rising star Sloane Stephens.
Williams has lost only one match since her first-round exit at the French Open last year. Since then, she has won Wimbledon, Olympic gold, the US Open, the season-ending WTA championships and the Brisbane International title.
Her 57-minute win over Kirilenko extended her current winning streak to 20 matches.
"I didn't expect to come out and play so well tonight,'' Williams said. "I was like 'Wow!' I saw I had 95 percent first serves in the first set. I said 'Who is this girl?' It's not me usually.''
After five breaks of serve in the third set, Stephens broke Jovanovski and then held to advance -- knowing her parents and grandparents were watching on TV.
"I'm sure my mother's had like four heart attacks,'' Stephens joked after the see-saw match. "I hope my Grandpa didn't have to put my Grandma to bed, because she gets a little worried.''
Williams, who has rated Stephens a potential world No. 1, beat the 19-year-old American in straight sets two weeks ago at the Brisbane International, one of the warm-up tournaments for the Australian Open. Stephens is looking forward to a rematch, where there won't be any major surprises.
"It will be tough, obviously ... it's quarters of a Grand Slam,'' she said. "There won't be that like first time, 'Oh, my God, I'm playing Serena'. That's kind of out of the window now. So that's good. And then it will feel more of like a regular match instead of all the other like things to think about.''
Azarenka started last season with a 26-match winning streak, including a lopsided victory over Maria Sharapova in the Australian Open final. She moved to No. 1 in the rankings with that win and has remained there for all but a few weeks ever since.
But she needs to defend her Australian title to prevent French Open champion Sharapova or Williams from claiming No. 1.
Next up for Azarenka is a quarterfinal against Svetlana Kuznetsova, who entered the season's first major ranked No. 75 but has won titles at the 2004 US Open and 2009 French Open. Kuznetsova on Monday posted a 6-2, 2-6, 7-5 win over former No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki.
In men's action, Roger Federer and Andy Murray stayed on course to face each other in the semifinals.
The third-seeded Murray easily beat Gilles Simon of France, 6-3, 6-1, 6-3, on Monday for his fourth straight-sets win in a row. He will play unseeded Frenchman Jeremy Chardy in the quarterfinals. Chardy followed his upset of 2009 U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro with a 5-7, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 win over another highly ranked player, No. 21 Andreas Seppi, in the fourth round.

Thursday, November 07, 2013
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – A share of first place is on the line for the Lipscomb Lady Bisons.
Friday night they face ETSU at Brooks Gym at 6 p.m. ETSU is first in the Atlantic Sun Conference with a 13-1 record. The Lady Bisons are tied for second with Jacksonville with a 12-2 conference mark.
The Lady Bisons have not lost a match since dropping a 3-2 decision to ETSU at Allen Arena Oct. 5. The Lady Bisons bring a nine-game winning streak into the rematch. ETSU has won its last six matches. The Lady Bisons are 4-1 in their last five matches at ETSU.
"This is exactly what we have had our eyes on since we lost to them," Lipscomb coach Brandon Rosenthal said. "We talked about getting the opportunity to be in this situation and here we are.
"At the time of our loss we didn't know if ETSU would have a loss when we met them again. But we knew they had to go to Jacksonville. This is all part of the process. It is going to come down to the team that is the most aggressive."
The rankings
The Lady Bisons are ranked 74th nationally in the RPI ratings. ETSU is rated 83rd.
"There is a lot of respect for who they are and their competitiveness," Rosenthal said. "It's a great match up.
"Both teams will benefit from this week in the RPI. It helps more to win, but when both teams are in the top 100 it helps both teams, win or lose."
The Lady Bisons, ETSU and Jacksonville have all qualified for A-Sun tournament berths. The winner of the tournament gets the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
"Win or lose against ETSU we are still in control," Rosenthal said. "If the regular season determined the champion it would be a little bit different, but we understand that it doesn't.
"We understand that this is a pivotal match in determining who is going to win the regular season championship. That is one of our goals. That is one of ETSU's goals. "
The Spitznagle effect
One difference in the Purple and Gold since the last time the two teams met is that middle blocker Molly Spitznagle is back in the lineup. She missed the earlier match due to an ankle injury.
"I think she makes a huge difference," Rosenthal said. "She makes a difference in our ability to attack in the middle. You have to pay attention to Molly."
Spitznagle also helps the blocking ability of the Lady Bisons.
"We have done a great job of blocking since then," Rosenthal said. "It has been noticeably better."
National rankings
Nationally, the Purple and Gold continue to lead the NCAA in kills per set with 15.39. They are third in assists per set with 14.32. Their .276 hitting percentage is 15th in the nation.
Individually, setter Caitlin "Dot" Dotson remains No. 1 in the nation in assists per set with 12.76.
Middle blocker Jewell Dobson is sixth in points per set with 5.3 and seventh in kills per set with 4.7.
Spitznagle is 28th in the nation with a .399 hitting percentage. Dobson is 31st with a .396 hitting percentage. They are ranked first and second, respectively, in the A-Sun.
ETSU's balance
Outside hitter Megan Devine and middle blocker Meredith Hardy are the two leaders for ETSU.
"ETSU is a lot like we are," Rosenthal said. "They have multiple weapons and a balanced attack.
"We are going to take a poker playing mentality into this weekend. We are pushing all of the chips in. We are going to roll up our sleeves and go for it."
Rosenthal also thinks ETSU outside hitter Ivey Rice is underrated.
"Ivey Rice is one of those players who completely flies under the radar," Rosenthal said. "But after watching some of their matches I can tell you right now that Ivey is the reason why they have won some of these close matches.
"She goes about her business in a blue collar way. She gets the job done"
Rosenthal also stresses the importance of setter Jamie Rutledge to ETSU.
"Rutledge is a winner," Rosenthal said. "She has proven she knows how to win."
The Lady Bisons travel to Spartanburg, S.C., to face USC Upstate at 2 p.m. Saturday.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
Vincent Anella is looking for one good photo.
Or maybe two or three if someone can find them.
The Eagle Scout project he is working on doing needs documentation, and it has been hard to find.
In the late 1870s Abraham Powell built the first house (cabin) in Carbon County along the banks of the Price River. At that time the river meandered about and around it stood a large swamp. The house he built stood basically in the Fairmont Supply parking/storage lot (565 South 300 West) in Price. That house stood for a number of years but it is now gone.
In 1936 a local Scout Explorer Troop built and dedicated a monument to that first house at the what was then the end of Carbon Avenue, on about 600 South. The monument was made of stone and looked like an old house. It also had a plaque on it telling of the first dwelling in the town.
When the swamps were drained south of town and the Price River was straightened out, Carbon Avenue became the main road out of town going toward Emery County and the monument was torn down. However the plaque was saved and now is held by a private owner.
But no one knows exactly what the monument looks like. That's where Anella's dilemma comes in. As an Eagle project he wants to rebuild the monument and attach the plaque to that monument.
"We would like to have some photos of what the original monument looked like," he told the Sun Advocate recently.
He also made a proposal to the Price City Council concerning the monument and where he wanted to locate it. He wants to put it at the trail head of the new river walkway that is being built from Carbon Avenue west to the Creekview Shopping Center.
The city gave him a positive sign to go ahead, now he just needs to know what to build.
That's where local readers come in. He is asking that residents think about photos they might have in their attics, basements, dresser drawers or old albums that might in some way show an image of the monument. Often people have their photo taken in front of monuments when they visit a place, or maybe a photo exists from one of the members of the original troop that built the monument.
Regardless any photo will help.
If you find something that pertains to this monument, please contact Vincent Anella at 435 637-6761 or call Richard Shaw at 435 637-0732 Ext. 23.

PECO announced today that the company has partnered with the National Organization on Disability on a 2014 initiative to hire individuals with disabilities.
PHILADELPHIA – PECO President and CEO Craig Adams announced today that the company has partnered with the National Organization on Disability on a 2014 initiative to hire individuals with disabilities. The announcement was made at a luncheon and panel discussion cosponsored by Exelon, PECO's parent company, the Exelon Foundation and the National Organization on Disability (NOD) in honor of National Disability Employment Awareness Month.
The initiative builds on PECO's existing relationship with NOD and its Start on Success program. As part of the program, the company recently hired two students who just completed successful summer internships.
"The community of people with disabilities is one that has traditionally seen high unemployment and underemployment rates," said Adams. "It is also a community with a lot of great talent, and we want to take every opportunity to hire and retain that talent as part of our workforce."
In addition to working with NOD, PECO is planning to partner with community organizations, including AHEDD and Bridges Community Support Services, to help ensure the company meets or exceeds new federal guidelines requiring that workers with disabilities make up at least 7 percent of a company's employees.
"NOD commends PECO, and its parent company Exelon, as trendsetters in disability hiring. They are taking all the right steps—leadership from the C Suite, partnerships with disability organizations, and the discipline of a quantitative goal," said NOD President Carol Glazer. "With these steps, PECO and Exelon will lead the way for energy companies and other major employers, and reap the benefits of new workers who bring a diversity of talents and skills."
As part of today's luncheon, NOD and the National Business & Disability Council also announced the Disability Employment Tracker, an important new tool that will help companies across a range of industries assess their own readiness to launch or improve their hiring of people with disabilities and veterans.
The Disability Employment Tracker is designed for companies to:
With input from Fortune 500 companies and guidance from leading research firm J.D. Power, the Disability Employment Tracker was developed with Sirota, a leading provider of organizational assessments and employee survey programs. Sirota will administer the survey and ensure confidentiality and data security.

According to the text of the 2010 Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the law is supposed "to promote the financial stability of the United States by improving accountability and transparency in the financial system, to end 'too big to fail,' [and] to protect the American taxpayer by ending bailouts."
However, as is usually the case with federal laws, Dodd-Frank does precisely the opposite. "In fact," reports the New York Times' Gretchen Morgenson,
Dodd-Frank actually widened the federal safety net for big institutions. Under that law, eight more giants were granted the right to tap the Federal Reserve for funding when the next crisis hits. At the same time, those eight may avoid Dodd-Frank measures that govern how we're supposed to wind down institutions that get into trouble.
In other words, these lucky eight got the best of both worlds: access to the Fed's money and no penalty for failure.
The eight institutions in question are clearinghouses, which Morgenson describes as "large, powerful institutions that clear or settle options, bond and derivatives trades." Among them are the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), and the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC), all of which handle billions of dollars' worth of transactions a day. They are "lucrative businesses," Morgenson observes. "Last year, the CME Group, the parent company of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, generated almost $3.3 billion in revenue. Its chief executive, Craig S. Donohue, received $3.9 million in compensation and held an additional $10 million worth of equity awards outstanding, according to the company's proxy statement."
These clearinghouses predate Dodd-Frank; the oldest, the CME, was founded in 1898. But the law has vastly expanded their involvement in the financial system and correspondingly increased taxpayers' risk, according to Peter Wallison of the American Enterprise Institute:

text: Classical studies is a program designed to impart an academic familiarity with the languages, history, and culture of ancient Mediterranean society. Its program of study includes various courses taught by several departments within the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences, arranged so as to fulfill a student's requirements for an academic minor. Classical studies differs from other departments' study of the art, history, philosophy, literature, or politics of the classical period by its requirement that the student command a reasonable facility in an ancient language. The point at which a student begins the university-level study of that language will determine the total number of hours required for the minor. If a student begins the language with a course numbered 200 or above, the minor requires the completion of at least 21 credit hours from the following courses. If the student begins with a language course numbered in the 100s, the requirement is 27 hours. For all students, at least 9 of the credit hours must be earned in courses numbered 300 or above, 12 from courses in the same classical language regardless of language placement level, and 9 from courses in subjects other than that language.
