Shutter Islandby Dennis Lehane
Winner of the Hammett Prize from the International Association of Crime Writers
Staff Pick
When it's too darn hot, open Shutter Island for a thoroughly chilling experience. Lehane describes the book as gothic noir. I'd say it was that, plus intelligent and riveting. Two policemen investigate a disappearance on a remote island psychiatric asylum where nothing is as it seems. It's a great mystery; you'll never guess the ending and you must never reveal it to those you insist read this book.
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The master of the new noir returns with another riveting tale that brilliantly captures our capacity for depravity and deliverance. Teddy Daniels has come to Shutter Island for the truth. Pray for him. . . . In 1954, U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels and his partner, Chuck Aule, arrive at Ashcliffe Hospital— a federal institution for the criminally insane— to find an escaped patient. The more they investigate, the more they believe they may actually have been summoned to this small island in Massachusetts s Outer Harbor to discover the true nature of Ashcliffe s treatments. As a storm threatens to strand them, Teddy and Chuck discover they ve stumbled into an evil darker than any nightmare. And the more they learn, the more they fear that someone is trying to drive them insane. Filled with his trademark grit, insight, and compassion, Untitled is sure to take this acclaimed writer to breathtaking heights as it hits bestseller lists nationwide.
"[A]n ending so shocking yet so faithful to what has come before, that it will go down as one of the most aesthetically right resolutions ever written....There is no mystery...about how good this book is; like Mystic River, it's a tour de force." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
"After an extraordinarily humane series of neo-noirs, Lehane has produced a brilliantly far-fetched page-turner that's sure to be the most talked-about thriller of the year." Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)
"[A] deft, suspenseful thriller that unfolds with increasing urgency until it delivers a visceral shock in its final moments. When it comes to keeping readers exactly where he wants them, Mr. Lehane offers a bravura demonstration of how it's done." Janet Maslin, The New York Times
"It has the headlong suspense and whopper of a story you would expect in any well-made thriller." Joseph Barbato, USA Today
"Lehane has yet to write a bad book....Shutter Island entertains just fine, but its impact evaporates the minute you turn the last page. (Grade: B)" Daniel Fierman, Entertainment Weekly
"[A]nother blistering page-turner....Lehane throws in one mind-bending plot twist after another in a psychological thriller that will leave readers in suspense right up to the end." Joanne Wilkinson, Booklist
"The ride this novel provides is as good as entertainment gets." The Miami Herald
"Shutter Island is a tremendously satisfying thriller. The suspense is molasses-thick with a plot that will keep you guessing. Lehane doesn't miss a trick. It's a great, fun read, and then there's that ending. You're sure to talk about this one over lunch." Tom Walker, The Denver Post
"If we could bring back Edgar Allan Poe and equip him with today's postmodern bag of tricks, he might give us a tale as unexpected and unsettling as Shutter Island." Patrick Anderson, The Washington Post
"The atmosphere is properly dark and moody, and so long as Teddy and Chuck stick to the manhunt and their investigation of Ashecliffe's creepy medical staff, they play their roles with muscle and grace." Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review
"If you're in the mood for mind games, Shutter Island is an engrossing read." Sam Allis, The Boston Globe
"[P]robably Lehane's best book to date....Things reach such a pitch that you don't know whom to believe, which all leads to an ending worthy of Agatha Christie or O. Henry. Highly recommended." Library Journal
"A moody, atmospheric mystery that combines the claustrophobia of an Agatha Christie whodunit with the creepiness of a good Stephen King yarn...good luck putting this one down." San Francisco Chronicle Book Review
The New York Times-bestselling tale by the acclaimed author of Mystic River is now in paperback. In 1954, a storm threatens to strand U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels on Shutter Island, home to a federal institution for the criminally insane.
The basis for the blockbuster motion picture directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Shutter Island by New York Times bestselling author Dennis Lehane is a gripping and atmospheric psychological thriller where nothing is quite what it seems. The New York Times calls
The year is 1954. U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels and his new partner, Chuck Aule, have come to Shutter Island, home of Ashecliffe Hospital for the Criminally Insane, to investigate the disappearance of a patient. Multiple murderess Rachel Solando is loose somewhere on this remote and barren island, despite having been kept in a locked cell under constant surveillance. As a killer hurricane bears relentlessly down on them, a strange case takes on even darker, more sinister shades — with hints of radical experimentation, horrifying surgeries, and lethal countermoves made in the cause of a covert shadow war. No one is going to escape Shutter Island unscathed, because nothing at Ashecliffe Hospital is what it seems. But then neither is Teddy Daniels.

Final Score: Phillies 16 Mets 1
Tonight at Citi Field, the Mets (66-83) lost to the Phillies (76-74) by the score of 16-1, guaranteeing New York finishes below .500 for the fourth straight year.
The Mets were officially eliminated from post-season contention with tonight's loss.
The Phillies later scored 7 runs in the top of the ninth inning (all with two outs), capped off by a grand slam from Ryan Howard against Josh Edgin, who likely made his final appearance of the year.
Mike Baxter snapped an 0-for-19 slump and hit a solo home to account for the team's only run.
The Mets have gone 16 straight home games without scoring more than 3 runs, which is two game short of the all-time record.
Matthew Cerrone, Lead Writer
I made the mistake of blinking in the first inning, so I missed much of how Philadelphia scored their first 8 runs. I did, however, see all of the ninth, which was comprable to having teeth pulled while watching paint dry. Seriously, I mean, what else is there to say when the best part of the night is eagerly anticipating the manager's post game talk with reporters (if for no other reason than maybe tonight will be the night he starts calling people out).
"This team never came back from vacation after the All Star break," Bobby Ojeda said during tonight's post-game show on SNY, which is a perfect way to put it.

And speaking of shoe collectors, I came across this great interview with a vintage shoe collector named Jonathan Walford over at The Collectors Weekly. Walford actually works at the Bata Shoe Museum that displayed the On A Pedestal exhibit we featured some months ago. Here, he speaks on the history of shoes and shoe design in the 20th century. He had a lot of great stuff to say, like how the advent of the mini-skirt in the 1960s resurrected the boot or how Mary Janes might've been invented by a cartoonist. What I thought was really interesting was the effect of wars on shoe design and how it led to the creation of cork platforms. Check out a quick grab below:
"Walford: A few homegrown American design talents began to show up, but American retailers were leery of taking American designs. They always wanted to sell the latest fashions from Paris or London. They never wanted to say 'buy the latest fashions by so and so from Ohio'. World War II changed that because U.S. retailers were cut off from Europe's fashion leaders. Suddenly they had to look to the local talent, and there was a lot out there. They would even promote the names of U.S. shoe companies like Herman Delman in advertisements.
Collectors Weekly: How else did World War II affect U.S. shoes?
Walford: Actually, both world wars had an impact. From 1915 to 1918, material shortages forced European designers to replace some of the leather in their shoes with gray felt or cotton. This was especially true for boots. In World War II, again because of a lack of leather, materials such as wood and cork were used in soles instead of leather. That created the platform, which became the fashion throughout the war and even into the early 1950s."

When it comes to cute swimwear with a flair, Hapari is the place I turn to. Their line of modest swimwear and tankini's are stylish and comfortable for all body types. Hapari's new line of tankini swimwear is also very versatile since every tankini top can be worn three different ways: halter, tank and criss cross.
One of the things that I like most about Hapari, is that you can mix and match any top with any bottom. I especially love the Tummy Tuk bottoms that have a built in control panel. They hide those dreaded mommy pooches perfectly and seamlessly.
Since my last post about Hapari, I have had the opportunity to review the Stripes V-Neck Tankini and Tummy Tuk Turquoise Bottoms. I honestly cannot say enough great things about this suit! I wore the tankini to the lake during the 4th of July holiday weekend and was comfortable the whole time. I even received several comments on how great the suit looked! The Tankini top and Tummy Tuk bottoms stayed in place the entire time, even while chasing around a busy toddler and going down the slide on the pontoon.
Hapari Swimwear is definitely the place to go for stylish, yet comfortable tankini swimwear. I absolutely love the suit I have and I am actually eying the Giraffe Butterfly Tankini for next season, if I can wait that long!
Buy It: The Stripes V-Neck Tankini ($54) and the Tummy Tuk Turquoise Bottoms ($31) can be purchased on the Hapari Swimwear site.

OXCGN's Crysis 2 Review: First Person Shooters Finally Evolved
OXCGN: "Moving from PC to consoles for a sequel is always a risky proposition, especially when the original was a showcase title for gamers with graphics card installations that cost more than the average personal computer. There's always the sense that developers must be dumbing down the game somewhat and pandering to a broader audience. Far Cry 2 wasn't a resounding success on consoles, but it proved to be an ambitious open world adventure far deeper than any regular FPS already released on the 360 or PS3. Crysis 2 has arrived with some lofty expectations and what it does different is clearly what will set it apart from the horde of franchise shooters." (Click for more...)

Speaking at a July 16 campaign event in Cincinnati, Ohio, President Obama insisted that he does not make the same mistake twice, and that he would remain steadfast in his efforts to subsidize the "green" energy industry. "I don't know about you, but in my life what I've found, you know, sometimes I do boneheaded things, I make mistakes," Obama conceded. "I find, when I try something that doesn't work, then I don't try it again. I don't — you don't go back to doing something that didn't work."
Soon after, the president promised that he would continue to "invest" in alternative-energy technology if he is reelected in November. "We're going to invest in American energy," he vowed. "Yes, we want to continue to expand our production of oil and natural gas, but I also want to make sure we are the leaders in solar and biodiesel — the energy of the future that can help reduce dependence on foreign oil."
The Department of Energy (DOE) under the Obama administration doled out roughly $9 billion for solar and wind projects from 2009 to 2011, resulting in the conception of a whopping 910 direct jobs — equaling about $9.8 million per job — according to a report by the DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
Overall, an analysis by the Heritage Foundation reveals that a startling 19 companies that were granted federal loans or grants by the Obama administration have either filed for bankruptcy or are currently in the process of doing so:

One of the most controversial Japanese films of the decade!
The bona fide cult sensation, BATTLE ROYALE made a big impression on a certain Mr. Quentin Tarantino and definitely served as inspiration, whether Suzanne Collins wants to admit it or not (she won't), for that other, PG-13 movie about teens brutally offing each other in a Most Dangerous Game of survival, THE HUNGER GAMES.
The film has been described as a A CLOCKWORK ORANGE for the 21st century and it's a well-deserved an interesting comparison. This blood-soaked satire by the late great Japanese director Kinji Fukasaku is the tale of a dystopian society of the ominous, not-too-distant future overrun by teen violence and rebellion. It's violence is untamed and its humor is blacker than black, much like CLOCKWORK. It was also without a U.S. theatrical run years after its initial 2000 release.
In an extreme effort to restore order and curb the country's pesky juvenile delinquent problem, the Japanese government passes an act which sanctions an annual death match. Every year an entire high school class is kidnapped, taken to a remote island, and given three days to kill each other -- leaving just one victor.
Whether preppy, bully, nerd, friend or foe, it doesn't matter; it's a wrenching kill-or-be-killed situation.
The result is, as expected, shocking and gory as hell. But it's the devilish satirical edge that makes BATTLE ROYALE such a unique, brutal and unforgettable experience.
It's a thrilling, expertly crafted epic featuring a icy, devious performance by the great Japanese actor Beat Takeshi as the military official who orchestrates this circus of carnage.
Don't miss your chance to see this new classic on the big screen!

Tim Gardner Says Liberal Studies Degree Proved Good Foundation
By Allie Jeppson
Tim Gardner is skilled at Jeopardy. His knack for remembering bits and pieces of random knowledge is a hidden talent he developed, in part because he earned his undergraduate degree in liberal studies.
"I had these plans," Dr. Gardner said. "I was going to be a clinical psychologist."
However, the psychology program at Bowling Green State University required a number of different foreign language courses, and foreign language was not one of Dr. Gardner's strengths. So instead of risking his GPA, Dr. Gardner decided to major in liberal studies, which would allow him to keep the psychology courses without the language requirement while maintaining his high GPA. It was the best of both worlds, but it wasn't the only reason for the switch.
Dr. Tim Gardner brings his diverse academic background to the classroom.
As a student, Dr. Gardner read an article stating that most people, with the exception of those in vocations like physical therapy or medical technology, only use about 10% of the knowledge that they gained during their time at school, in their actual careers.
"I kiddingly say that I took the liberal studies degree to avoid the language," Dr. Gardner said. "That was part of it, but the other side was that I did want a broad-based undergraduate degree knowing I was going to go into grad school and wanted to prepare myself for a number of different things."
That broad base of knowledge that Dr. Gardner earned as an undergraduate is what continues to help him dominate at Jeopard, but the expanding of his wide range of knowledge didn't stop there.
After earning a Masters at Ohio State University and working for the corporate office of the Odd Lots/Big Lots chain of stores, Dr. Gardner decided to earn his doctorate in Industrial and Labor Relations from Cornell University. It was a program that produced a lot of business school professors and hosted some very management-oriented classes, Dr. Gardner said.
The diverse academic background from which Dr. Gardner comes, plays a part in the curriculum now used in his classes. He wants students to understand and to be able to identify what is right for their business based on their own circumstances.
"When I teach, I try to teach students skills that they can have in their back pocket to use and to get jobs and to succeed in their jobs," Dr. Gardner said. "So the way I teach is to try to get people to do projects and demonstrations in ways that are very similar to what they are going to do on the job."
When he is not working, Dr. Gardner and his family enjoy hiking, and skiing together.

|Teen murder suspects still waiting
|Friday, 03 August 2007 03:19
Teen murder suspects 18-year-old Tabitha Messina and 19-year-old Carlos Christopher still await extradition in an Avery County detention center.The pair were discovered early Monday in the Parkview Lodge parking lot in Linville Falls after allegedly fleeing the scene of a double homicide Sunday. The two are accused of killing Messina's father, Richard Messina, and girlfriend Sandra Cover. The victims were found beaten to death in the bedroom of their South Euclid home, which is just outside Cleveland, Ohio. The suspects waived their rights to an extradition hearing.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
(Editors note: This is the final installment in a series of four articles concerning the economy of Carbon County and what the future may hold).
It would be easy for Carbon County to get down on itself economically.
Sure, right now there is a bit of a doldrums, and employment doesn't look as good as it could.
Sure, the number of people working in the coal industry has decreased based on state figures provided recently.
And soon some working in the power industry in the county may be out of a job when the Carbon Plant in Price Canyon closes.
But there are a lot of positives about what could happen and what is happening. The main things to concentrate on are two words: innovation and evolution.
"To survive in today's business environment innovation, changing the way things are done in a business that faces challenges is very important," said Delynn Fielding, the economic development director for the county. "That is what keeps business alive in this environment."
The Business Expansion and Retention (BEAR) program that Fielding heads along with a board is one of those pluses in the county. In fact the program has been so successful and so well received that now the Utah State Office of Economic Development has helped other counties to set up similar programs.
Over the years the area has beat the bushes for businesses to come into the area, to diversify the economy so that energy production was not the only form of economic power. But frustrated officials have also beat their heads against a wall time after time, as sometimes even small factors have kept those businesses from moving to eastern Utah, losing out to other areas of the state.
While still looking for other businesses to move here (they are in conversations a number of interested parties at present), they found that reliance on moving things here, rather than growing from within, was more unsure. It was determined that either new startup businesses from the area or existing businesses that want to expand services or make products that could be shipped out were a much more stable way to grow the economy.
"Our program of Economic Gardening, which started a short time ago is an expansion of what the BEAR program started out with," said Fielding. "That program helps businesses to take new ideas and concepts to the next level, moving them into reality."
Presently about a half dozen businesses are working on Economic Gardening programs.
Business expansion may be just what the doctor ordered when it comes to using lessons learned locally that can be applied nationally and internationally.
Intermountain Electronics is a good example of a business that quietly has expanded over the years into doing a lot of business outside the country. According to its web site it "designs, engineers, manufactures, and services custom electrical distribution and control equipment for underground mining, surface mining, power generation, oil and gas, refineries, tunneling, utilities, and federal, state, and local governments." The expertise to do all these things initially came from working in with local eastern Utah energy industries. The company has also established two other plants, besides the one in Carbon County, in Kentucky to serve their customers needs.
Other local businesses have also followed this lead.
Take Kee Engineering and Consulting for instance. A firm that specializes in motor control design, generator and backup system design, automation design, and provides management and consulting to the energy industry in various ways, it has grown from local roots to a nationally known company. The company is currently working all across the western United States including in North Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, and Utah.
Most importantly they have evolved and innovated because their clients have helped them to move their business from area to area. The company recently hired two new engineers, one senior engineer and one new engineer right out of school who were brought in because of the large demand the firm has experienced over the past year.
Another business, Filter Testing Services, currently sells their product all across the United States. Specific areas include Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Alabama, Illinois and all across the Intermountain West. The company also has placement at several mines in Australia.
"We looked at the various markets throughout the nation and the globe where our products would have a good fit," said Sim Bunderson of FTS. "From there, we contacted some people in Australia and generated some interest. From that contact, we were able to place our product with several locations there. We saw some very quick growth from that one contact, showing just how important some contacts can be."
As for coal itself, there are those that say coal will not decline in use, but actually increase, possibly in different ways. A good example of an expert who says that is Frank Clemente, a former professor of social science and energy policy at Penn State University. Clemente's research specialization was and still is the socioeconomic impact of energy policy, especially on families, minorities, business and communities.
In a recent presentation in Grand Junction, Colo. he said that while all forms of energy are growing in demand, coal will continue to be an important factor in growing economies and in peoples living standards. He pointed out that China is the example of a developing country for the rest of the world. Its coal based energy has caused it to grow leaps and bounds, lowering poverty levels significantly in the country.
Sometimes we also forget that coal is used (and can be used) for more than just producing electricity. Clemente points out that coal is used to manufacture products, can be refined into liquid fuel, produces various chemicals used by our modern society, is used to make coke for steel, amongt other things.
Despite the decline in coal mining jobs in the area in the last few years, there is a future for coal, but it may be different. The industry will innovate and evolve as it needs to to stay viable.

Anne Coscarelli, Ph.D., director of the Simms/Mann–UCLA Center for Integrative Oncology and member of UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center (JCCC) was awarded the Outstanding Clinical Care Award for 2013 by the American Psychosocial Oncology Society in February. She is the founding director of the Simms/Mann Center, having been recruited in 1992 by the dean of the UCLA School of Medicine and the director of the JCCC to develop a center to provide comprehensive psychosocial care for individuals with cancer and their families.
Coscarelli is a practicing psychologist within the Simms/Mann Center, with decades of experience in psycho-oncology and mind/body approaches to mental health care for cancer patients. Under her direction, the Simms/Mann Center has become a national model for integrative patient care for those affected by cancer, offering educational and support services that combine psychological, nutritional, spiritual and complementary approaches to healing.
After receiving her B.A. in psychology with honors from University of California Santa Cruz in 1976, she went on to receive her master's degree and Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology Los Angeles. She began working with cancer patients at the Veterans Administration Medical Center with a joint appointment in UCLA's Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences. She then became affiliated with the UCLA School of Medicine as a research psychologist. She is currently an adjunct professor in the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA in the Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology/Oncology and a clinical professor in the Department of Psychology.
"Anne is a national leader in provision of clinical care to individuals diagnosed with cancer and their loved ones," said Annette L. Stanton, professor of psychology and psychiatry/behavioral sciences and JCCC member. "Over the past two decades Anne has created a remarkable center to serve the population touched by cancer at UCLA. Clearly Dr. Coscarelli has enriched thousands of lives of cancer patients, their families and the professionals who serve them."
The American Psychosocial Oncology Society is the only multidisciplinary professional organization in the United States dedicated to the psychosocial aspects of cancer treatment that advances the science and practice of psychosocial care for people affected by cancer. One of four major awards, the Outstanding Clinical Care Award in Psychosocial Oncology is presented to a clinician in recognition of outstanding clinical contributions to the field of psychosocial oncology.
Coscarelli not only delivers care but guides a team of professionals, psychologists, social workers, physicians and chaplains in helping patients and families negotiate the change that cancer can create. She also leads a team in training other young professionals to follow in their footsteps. Most of the services at the Simms/Mann Center are offered without fees to UCLA patients and families and the center is funded through philanthropy.
Coscarelli notes, "Cancer comes with many costs and burdens—emotional, physical and financial toxicities from cancer. We want everyone treated here to have equal access to care and are grateful to our many donors who make this service available."
Jim Ellison, Chairman and CEO of Ellison Machinery of Arizona and Former Chairman of Ellison Technologies, describes Dr. Coscarelli as "a comforting and wise voice of hope to those suddenly confronted with life undone. She came into my life one dark day 10 years ago when my wife of 30 years, in the very prime of her vibrant and beautiful life, without warning or symptom, was diagnosed with Glioblastoma, a cancer of the brain. For our four children and so many caring friends, we were left reeling from the grim news and bleak prognosis while trying to redefine life in support of wife, mother or friend."
"Without fanfare or announcement, Anne just showed up at bedside and began to offer a comforting word, a suggestion or two for coping and the offer to help us one day at a time," Ellison continues. "She did help us collectively and individually to become unified and focused on making every day count."
Ellison later joined the Advisory Board to fund the Simms/Mann Center and notes, "I wanted to join on behalf of my grateful family and to pay forward to other individuals and families who must confront some form of cancer in their lives." He has been credited with the board's motto, "Medicine alone is not enough…"
Coscarelli said in her acceptance of the award, "I am deeply grateful for this award, but the true honor is being able to compassionately bear witness to the experience, to hold the pain with our patients and sometimes to feel part of the growth that ensues."
UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center has more than 240 researchers and clinicians engaged in disease research, prevention, detection, control, treatment and education. One of the nation's largest comprehensive cancer centers, the Jonsson center is dedicated to promoting research and translating basic science into leading-edge clinical studies. In July 2012, the Jonsson Cancer Center was once again named among the nation's top 10 cancer centers by U.S. News & World Report, a ranking it has held for 12 of the last 13 years.

The fastest-growing registered investment advisors have to excel at a number of skills – from providing great client service and investment advice, to skillfully managing their people and businesses.
But to grow and scale an RIA business effectively, advisors can't do everything themselves. One effective way to super-charge sales and drive assets under management (AUM) and revenue is to sell your service and strategies through reps.
TCA's recent paper outlines four key components to successfully building a sales force that can put your practice on the fast track.

Why support Southampton?
Find out why a gift to the University is an investment that can make a real difference
Donating your time
Become a volunteer – we are always looking for volunteers to help out at our events, to share career and industry experience with students or to support the work we carry out in the community. If you're interested in getting involved, visit our volunteering pages or call the Volunteering Coordinator on +44 (0)23 8059 8484.
Become a fundraiser for one of our research areas or projects to raise awareness or funds. Contact us if you would like to raise funds for us or are already planning a fundraising activity, so that we can provide additional information and support.
Financial gifts
Our charitable status means that we can claim Gift Aid and make your donation go further. If you are a UK taxpayer, don't forget to tick the 'Gift Aid' box to enable us to receive £1.25 for every £1 you donate.
Find out more about our charitable status and Exempt Charity Number.
Making a financial gift couldn't be easier. You can:
- set up a direct debit by filling out and sending us a gift form
- pay by cheque or cash by filling out our gift form and sending it to us
- pay by credit or debit card either by donating online, or through sending us a gift form
- use a Charity Aid Foundation (CAF) voucher by filling out the relevant section on our gift form and sending us the form and voucher
Cheques and CAF vouchers should be made payable to 'The University of Southampton'. Our postal address is: Office of Development and Alumni Relations, University of Southampton, Highfield Campus, FREEPOST LICENCE NO SO286, Southampton, SO17 1YN, United Kingdom.
Annual giving
Every year thousands of alumni and friends give to the University, providing support to many of our students through our student support and student experience funds. Visit our annual giving pages to find out more.
Other ways to make a financial gift (tax-effective)
If you are interested in tax-effective ways of making a one-off or regular donation then one of the following methods might be for you.
- Payroll giving is a pre-tax deduction which may reduce the amount of income tax you pay. Ask your employer for a Charity Nomination Form to fill out (usually obtained from payroll) and your employer can make sure your donations come out of your wages. Next, fill out and post our payroll giving form, which means we can ensure your donations are used according to your wishes.
- Gifts of shares enable you to give or sell shares to the University. This can reduce your income tax bill, and Capital Gains Tax (CGT). If you are interested in this kind of gift then we advise you speak to your financial advisor, and/or contact us (+44 (0)23 8059 9079) for more information on the benefits and how to set this up.
- Gifts of land or buildings will reduce your income tax and exempt you from Capital Gains Tax. The market value of the land or property will be deducted from your Income Tax Liability. If you are interested in making this kind of gift please contact us by email or call +44 (0)23 8059 9079.
- Also, if you are a higher rate taxpayer (paying 40% or more income tax) then you can claim back the difference between the basic rate of tax (20%) and your highest rate of income tax by completing a tax return on your Gift Aid donation.
Making a financial gift from the USA
You can choose to contribute to research, new facilities or support for students
If you live in the USA and would like to make a financial donation to the University of Southampton, the best way to do so is to make a donation to the British Schools and Universities Foundation (BSUF), stating a preference for the University of Southampton. The BSUF is a charitable organisation recognised by the US Internal Revenue Service so that you may receive any tax deductions that you may qualify for.
You can make a US donation to BSUF via:
- A cheque made payable to 'British Schools and Universities Foundation' sent with the Donor Transmittal Form (found below) to: British Schools and Universities Foundation, 575 Madison Avenue, Suite 1006, New York, NY 10022-2511, USA.
- An online credit card payment to the BSUF here.
Please note: Donor preferences are respected by the BSUF but all grants are made at its sole discretion, as required by the IRS.
Leaving a legacy to the University in your Will
This is an excellent way of making a real difference to the University of Southampton. Legacy gifts are also tax exempt, so they can reduce the tax payable by your estate.
For more information on legacy wording, and specifying how you wish your legacy to be spent (you can specify a particular University fund) download our Legacy Help leaflet.
If you are thinking of leaving a legacy to Southampton please do get in touch with us. It is very useful for us to have information on legacy pledges, and it means that we can thank you accordingly for your generosity and for thinking of the University in such a personally significant way.
You can contact us on either +44 (0)23 8059 7156 or email@example.com, or you can fill out and return a legacy intention form or our online legacy form.
Corporate giving
All companies can qualify for tax relief on gifts to the University. Corporate donations can include:
- financial gifts (either by donating online, by cheque, or direct debit – see above)
- gifts of goods or services (contact us if you are interested in donating goods, equipment or staff services)
- gifts of land, buildings or shares (contact us and speak with your financial advisor if you are interested in making this kind of donation)
- payroll giving – the costs of setting up company-wide payroll giving are minimal, can inspire a giving culture in your workplace, and can decrease your corporation tax. Ask your employees to fill out a Charity Nomination Form, and then to fill out our payroll giving form. Instructions on how to set up payroll giving can be found on the HMRC website
- corporate sponsorship – we have many specific research programmes which you can sponsor. Contact us for more information on how you can start a corporate sponsorship programme and to find out about projects that currently need funding

Cleaning the Eddy
The bottle, bite valve, straw and lid can be cleaned in the top rack of the dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water. Pull off the bite valve and straw from the cap. If you like to use a bottle brush, we don't recommend forcing a brush through the Bite Valve slit. If you have the brush kit, run the small brush through the straw.
For a deeper cleaning, add a drop of mild soap or tablespoon of bleach to a clean glass jar filled with water. Drop the bite valve, straw and cap into the solution, and tightly close the jar's lid. Shake the mixture around for 30 seconds, and then let the parts soak for about 15 minutes. Rinse and shake dry.
To re-assemble the lid:Flip the stem collar (the component the bite valve attached to originally) to the open position. Orient the bite valve so the finger tab points towards the front of the cap. Push the bite valve firmly onto the stem collar. Press the straw back into place on the bottom of the lid. Ensure the straw covers the notches completely.

Presented by:Harvey Herschman, Ph.D. Distinguished Research Professor Departments of Pharmacology and Biological Chemistry Member, JCCC Cancer Molecular Imaging Program Area
Dr. Harvey Herschman's laboratory discovered the COX-2 gene, the target of the anti-inflammatory drugs Celebrex and Vioxx. Elevated COX-2 is a hallmark of many cancers such as colon, lung and breast. He and his colleagues are interested in the role of COX-2 in the initiation and progression of cancers. To study these areas, they are developing mouse models in which COX-2 can be conditionally over-expressed or suppressed in specific target tissues.

Published Sunday, December 09, 2012
My blessed wife generally worries herself sick over what to get me for Christmas. She's always relieved when I say, "Oh, I don't need anything, dear. Your love is the greatest gift I could ever hope for and all I could ever desire."
Those days are gone. Things have changed. Not in my marriage. In my wallet. Or they soon will.
The so-called fiscal cliff draws nearer every day in D.C., and before my 401K fails, I want what's coming to me. Starting with a very special Christmas gift. I know just the thing.
Normally, I wouldn't purchase such an item for myself. Especially during even-numbered years, when I buy new underwear.
But after I saw two news items in two weeks about something that has fascinated me as long as I remember, I knew I had to act, and fast.
The UK Daily Mail just reported that a big-haired blonde from Texas named Dr. Melba S. Ketchum claims to have absolute proof that Bigfoot not only exists but was having sex with human females as long ago as 15,000 years.
Dr. Ketchum—a veterinarian by trade— said her firm, DNA Diagnostics, had used actual DNA evidence to prove the startling assertion. Better yet, the DNA sample—the first ever found— was recovered from bits of blueberry bagel left behind by a family of Bigfeet in northern Michigan, where Native American legend has long held that Bigfeet and bagels live in harmony.
Skeptics pooh-poohed Ketchum's "proof," especially after she refused to share her research with other well-respected veterinarians. But that's always the case, isn't it?
You know what? I don't care. If there's a blueberry bagel out there that proves Bigfoot exists, I want to see it. Them. The bagel and/or the Bigfoot. Who could ask for more at Christmas?
Naturally, I fretted over the expense. Going to Texas to see Dr. Ketchum or Michigan to see a bagel is expensive. Maybe even too expensive for the most generous wife.
But in a burst of heavenly fortune, not long after I heard about the bagel-eating Bigfeet in Michigan, my editor passed along a press release about a Bigfoot conference right here in north Georgia in mid-January.
I can make it. For the cost of a tank of gas. Can you say karma?
The event is the Midnight Walkers Southeastern Bigfoot Conference. And it's a big deal. Bigfoot experts from across the globe will be there to share all they know about the fascinating creatures.
Speakers include Ron Morehead, who is credited with recording an actual Sasquatch for the first time. Whoa, dude.
Another guest speaker is Arla Williams, who will provide "female perspective" on Bigfoot research. Her talk will include "the how-to's in interacting, developing relationships with a clan, dealing with the fear."
But the top attraction, at least for me, is R. Scott Nelson – described as a crypto-linguist with over 30 years experience in foreign language and linguistics.
In 2010, Nelson broke the Bigfoot language barrier and was able to produce and publish the Sasquatch Phonetic Alphabet and Transcription Standard.
A Bigfoot alphabet? Are you kidding me? Holy secret decoder ring, Batman!
Nelson is so awesome he is even a time traveler. At least according to the event website, which said he had appeared on "his local news" on, Nov. 14, 2013... a full 11 months from now! Pow!
Bigfoot, bagels and time travel. Merry Christmas to me. I can't wait to tell my wife.
In fact, speaking of Christmas gifts... I can't think of anything my wife would enjoy more than watching me travel to the Bigfoot conference.

Yes, pot can be addicting in the fact that the habit is addicting. People get addicted to television and the internet all the time, but there's no chemicals being pumped into their system during that time. It is also a carcinogen, and if you smoke a whole shitload of pot, you're at risk for lung/throat cancer.
Of course, you're also at risk for getting naked and yelling at your carpet

A teen shelter gets a makeover
When a group of philanthropic interior designers and employees from Triumph Structures Long Island LLC, an aircraft parts manufacturer in Westbury, put their heads together to redesign Nassau Haven, a teen shelter in Wantagh, the result was both comforting and functional. The aim of Nassau Haven, which is run by Family and Children's Association, is to give residents, who stay a maximum of 30 days, a sense of calm. "The goal of the makeover was to give them a place where they could feel comfortable, not like they're in a shelter," says Joyce Mullen, director of marketing and communications for the Mineola headquarters of Family and Children's Association. As many as 400 youths pass through Nassau Haven each year. -- Sylvia E. King-Cohen

By KEN LARSONSun Advocate publisher
By law, it took almost a week to certify last Tuesday's primary election for Price City but two ballots that needed verification of addresses, made the determination for the general election set on Nov. 4.
The primary election was a narrowing down of candidates for the two communities of Price City and Sunnyside, while other cities in the county wait for the general election to decide their final council positions.
Eliminated from the race in Price City were Jay Marshall and Gary T. Kutkas, while David Cox, who had tied with Marshall in the original tallying, moves forward into the general election. According to election officials Price City did a complete recount.
In the recount, Cox, Richard Tatton, Stephen Denison and Joe Christman each ended up with one more vote. The race for three council positions is now between these four candidates and Don Reavely and Mike Metzger.
The two candidates vying for a two year term for Price City council are Jeanne McElvoy and Jeffrey Nielson. McElvoy was appointed to this position following the resignation this past spring by Elizabeth Kourianos.
In Sunnyside three seats will be voted on in the general election. Those vying for these positions include Sam Leonard, Carol Johnson, Tony Riffle, Douglas Alger, Sherri Madrid and Cheryl Eck. Three people were eliminated in that election.
In the other cities, East Carbon voters will fill three city seats from a field of four candidates, including Darma Lopez, Dave Maggio, Joseph Manley and Darrell Valdez.
Helper has three candidates running for three seats. These include Kirk Mascaro, Chuck Buchanan and Robert Farrell.
In Wellington, council incumbents Paula Noyes and Glen Wells will run against challengers Robert Berta and Paul Childs.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
With just over a month to go before the 2012 Carbon County Relay for Life, organizers and participants are moving fast to secure last minute fundraising and team-member recruitment before the big day. Chairperson Terri Lott, who is leading the Relay for the second straight year, promises a unique event this season as participants from every walk of life continue to dream of a cure.
"This disease attacks every day, making it a personal fight for nearly everyone in the Castle Valley," she said. "I am so proud to be part of the fight to find a cure."
To help draw a big crowd in 2012, event organizers are calling on animal lovers by hosting a "Bark for Life" fundraiser for the first time in Carbon County. This event provides an opportunity for people to be empowered through their canine companion partnerships and to contribute to cancer cures through the mission of the American Cancer Society.
"I was amazed to find out just how many dogs fight their own battle with cancer and how many families lose their pet because of this disease," explained Lott. "And in addition to fighting the disease themselves, dogs can provide so much strength as service and guide animals for their human owners."
During the Bark for Life, families and their pets will come together and complete a one mile walk to honor the care giving qualities of "Best Friends" as well as cancer survivors.
While the Bark event will be new in Carbon County this year, uplifting words from those who have battled cancer on the front lines are an annual tradition.
"I am so excited for everyone to see the guest speakers at this year's Relay," said Lott. "Those in attendance will be in for a real treat was we have some very powerful local individuals who have agreed to share their story."
One such Relay story will be getting a new chapter over the coming years as the saga of Dr. Gordy Klatt continues to evolve. According to the Relay for Life site, Klatt, a Tacoma colorectal surgeon, wanted to enhance the income of his local American Cancer Society office and decided to raise the money personally for the fight by doing something he enjoyed, running marathons.
In May 1985 the Relay was born as Dr. Klatt spent a grueling 24 hours circling the track at Baker Stadium at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma for more than 83 miles. Throughout the night, friends paid $25 to run or walk 30 minutes with him. He raised $27,000 that first year as nearly 300 individuals watched as he ran and walked the course.
Klatt's story has come full circle as he disclosed recently that he is facing his own battle with stomach cancer. The doctor reportedly is currently going through a round of chemo and is looking at the possibility of surgery later in the summer.
"I am even more energized to defeat this disease worldwide. I will again be with all of you in spirit this Relay season - even more so this year." said Klatt via the Relay website. "Celebrate the survivors; remember those who lost the battle and fight back. We all need to celebrate more birthdays and by relaying we keep the hope alive through education, community involvement and fundraising for ongoing research."
To support the event on a local level one only needs to participate. The Carbon County Relay for Life will take place on June 22 and 23 at the USU Eastern track. The event will kick-off June 22 with a survivor dinner at 5 p.m. For more information, check out he Carbon relay online or call Lott at 650-5388. Those interested in having at team must submit their roster and t-shirt sizes for ordering before May 15.

Dr. Mario F. Pompili's Ratings
Fantastic care, thorough explanation of procedure, great follow up.
Was this rating useful? 1 [[ userState['ratings'][2269440].votes_count ]]
Dr Mario Pompili performed a pericardiectomy on me in 2009. I was 26 at the time of the surgery. I am going to be 30 this year and thank him for every day i have been able to live since the surgery. He took the time to explain what he was going to be doing, the risk involved, recovery time, and just about every other question I and my family could think of. The surgery took nearly 12 hours to complete. After the surgery he checked on me constantly until I was discharged from Kaiser Santa Clara. I was apprehensive to trust someone enough to hold my heart in his hands, but I am glad I trusted him. Your life is in good hands with Doctor Pompili. Every day is a gift he helped to give me.

My dad who was age 69 at the time had 1 valve replaced and the other repaired by Dr. Pompili in November 2010. A year later, he is doing very well and its thanks to Dr. Pompili and his staff. Dr. Pompili was very patient with my family and took time to walk us through the the process. We are very thankful to him saving our father.

Dr Pompili is God's gift to mankind and my family in particular. He came highly recommended by Stanford Hospital. He operated on my 21 year old nephew's heart with a bad valve on Nov 13th 2009 at Kaiser of Santa Clara. My nephew had to go thru a 2nd and then a 3rd procedure during his month long stay at this fine facility. Dr Pompili, was constantly watching Danny like a hawk. Danny was able to finish his school and is leading a healthy and normal life today. My family is forever in Dr. Pompili's debt. God bless him and his creators. He saved my nephew's life twice. What can be more rewarding than saving someone's life? and then saving him twice ? He will always be remembered by the Maiels.

The acetate method is actually not too messy. Liek a transfer sheet that comes off clean-from the magnetic mold. Yes, you scrape on top of the acetate which is ON top of the chocolate. If you put too much extra choc it will get on the sides otherwise it just comes off the end of the mold at the last place you swipe. Even if it does get on the sides a bit it is easy to scrape off as the mold is sitting on the counter just goe down the side. The extra bit of choc can be reused.
Next I will try Steve's method.
I just remembered last night that Schneich once gave a link to a utube video from some chocolate exhibition he was at and I think the demonstrator used this acetate closing method. Here !! I just found it!acetate method

How much will Mets spend on LOOGY?
This morning, in a post to NY Baseball Digest, Mike Silva looks in to who the Mets might try to sign, in the event they want a left-handed specialist in their bullpen, such as free-agents Joe Beimel, Will Ohman, Ron Mahay, Dennys Reyes and Tim Byrdak.
"The Mets have used all their remaining 40 man roster spots," Silva points out. "I doubt any of the aforementioned relievers will accept a minor league deal, at least not right now, so they will have to remove someone to make room."
In response to a similar question for ESPN yesterday, Adam Rubin responded:
"Who will work for $600,000? Answer that and you may be able to identify who the Mets sign."
In other words, add the 40-man roster issue to Rubin's response, and it reads like the Mets might only be considering relief pitchers willing to sign minor-league contracts, which I have no problem with. I am not shy in my approach to the bullpen, which is to rarely lock a set bullpen in to a roster. It's foolish. There is little evidence that it ever works out, and, at least in my experience watching the Mets, it only causes problems. I'd rather have a series of players, from journeymen on minor-league deals to minor leaguers, who can compete in Spring Training and keep the squad fluid throughout the year, like the Padres always do so well, and like the Rockies did so effectivly in 2008.
Remember, as Rubin points out, the Mets will also have left-handed relievers Mike O'Connor and Eric Niesen in camp, plus (gulp) Oliver Perez and Chris Capuano.

Note: John Tortorella On Michael Sauer
During the Q and A session at the Rangers Dog Walk this morning, John Tortorella was asked about Michael Sauer.
Bryan Finkel was there and says that the exchange went like this:
Q: On the chances of seeing Michael Sauer in the beginning of the season?
A:"I don't think you'll see Michael. Michael hasn't responded that well—I'll be quite honest—I do not think you'll see him at the beginning of the season."
In a transcript provided by the team, Tortorella added That's a big hole for us. Michael played very well for us, and we certainly missed him during the playoff run. I think it's going to be a little bit of time before Michael resumes his career.
It was reported in late June that Sauer was doing "much better" but still had ways to go.
Glen Sather said at the draft that Sauer was doing better but "coming along slowly."
Dave Maloney said in late July that Sauer was believed to have made "tremendous progress."
Last month it was suggested that Sauer could start on Long Term IR.
