Marie Antoinette: The Last Queen of France
by Evelyne Lever
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Historical biographies often come out heavily laden with so much facts that the authors lose the narrative. Not so with Evelyne Lever, a French historian who writes with a deft touch. Catherine Temerson does a good job of translating it from the French. The life of Marie Antoinette is neatly divided in chapters which clearly define the notable periods of her life. The watershed scandal leading to the French Revolution, the diamond necklace affair can be found in its own chapter.
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English (9)
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0312283334, Paperback)This highly readable translation of French historian Evelyne Lever's 1991 biography captures all the drama and pathos of Marie Antoinette's short life. Born in 1755, this carefree, fun-loving daughter of Austrian empress Maria Theresa inherited neither her mother's political shrewdness nor her sense of duty. She was married off at 14 to the stolid, clumsy French Dauphin, who would not fully consummate their marriage for another seven years, at which point he was King Louis XVI and their marital difficulties were the subject of public ridicule. She consoled herself by retreating to the artificial village she constructed at Trianon, where she could be free of the court etiquette she hated and indulge in expensive amusements that only increased her unpopularity. Her rare incursions into politics were just as ill judged; she alienated the French nobility with attempts to further Austria's diplomatic goals, and from the first rumblings of revolution in 1788, she influenced Louis to take a hard line on royal power when compromise might have saved the monarchy and prevented their executions in 1793. Lever does not soften Marie Antoinette's faults or downplay her poor judgment, but most readers will finish this absorbing narrative feeling very sorry for a pretty, goodhearted, but fundamentally frivolous woman thrown into a historical moment whose demands were beyond her. --Wendy Smith
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:24:20 -0400)
Leading French historian, Evelyne Lever tells the compelling story of the last, and most infamous, Queen of France. She draws on little explored sources including Austrian and Swedish archives and the correspondence of foreign ambassadors to Paris to paint vivid portraits of the Queen, her inner circle and the lavish court life at Versailles, as well as the tragic events leading to her death. She describes the queen's life in detail, from her birth in Vienna, through her turbulent, unhappy marriage, the intrigues of life at court, to the final bloody turmoil of the French Revolution and her beheading. She also describes Marie Antoinette's relationship with the Swedish Count Axel Fersen, the grand passion of her life, the seething social and political climate of prerevolutionary France and the degree to which the Queen remained wilfully out of touch with the nation's economic troubles.… (more)

The borough of Mercersburg had been conducting such inspections. Public outcry from citizens and the business community brought those to a halt just last month.
Mayor Peter Lagiovane on Monday proposed that two officers from the borough attend training and be certified to conduct vehicle inspections as part of their duty.
He said the officers would not be hindered from their daily duties and that officers here do not have a "one-dimensional type of job." He went on to list many of the things that officers perform on a daily basis such as serving warrants, helping the elderly, and calling mothers of victims.
"Conducting these vehicle inspections would just be another part of the job," he said.
Chief of Police David Arnold also spoke about the proposal stating that new job would be composed of about 140 man hours a year for the officers. On Feb. 5 and 6 of this year, Lagiovane said, 2,760 commercial vehicles were counted driving on Orchard Drive, as a part of a study to watch the flow of larger vehicles through Chambersburg.
He also cited that two large trucks were involved in accidents in the borough, once knocking out power for a portion of the city.
Many council members and members from the community (some identifying themselves as truck drivers) disagreed with the idea, saying drivers already had many safety regulations to comply with as well as the impact for large businesses with increased "stopping" for checks.
Businesses in Mercersburg had voiced their displeasure with having delivery trucks held up for hours because of the local inspections.
Others said the two reported accidents did not make up for the 140 man hours a year that it would take from the officers.

Introduction / History
The Warembori people maintain their livelihood by swidden agricultural, hunting, gardening, fishing and crabbing along the rivers and marshlands of their coastal region. The Warembori people can most easily be accessed from Serui by a 7-8 hour boat trip.
The Arupi clan of the Warembori moved south in 1988 and intermarry with the people of Kaipuri. The Warembori people enjoy dances and song cycles.
The peoples' main diet is sago, fish, and yams. Houses are generally along the coast on stilts. The Warembori people have no gospel cassettes, films, nor videos in their language.
The Warembori are sometimes known as the Warenbori, Waremboivoro, or Warabori people but they prefer to be called Warabori. Warembori is the main language at home.

Advisory boards
Members of H-Net advisory boards assist in the peer-reviewing process and the development of multimedia content by assisting editors in making policies for their lists and web sites; reviewing disputes brought to their attention by the list or web editors; serving as "ambassadors" for their lists by joining discussions, helping to recruit new editors and board members, developing new threads, and serving as liaisons to professional organizations and the educational community at large. Terms on advisory boards vary, because some lists are adjuncts of professional societies that co-approve board membership and monitor terms of office. One member of each advisory board is entitled to nonvoting membership on H-Staff, H-Net's internal policy list.
Procedure for nominating an advisory board member to the
executive committee:
Please fill out the board member application form. Editors of existing lists, or contact persons developing a new list may bundle all advisory board statements into one message. In any case, it is important that the nominees be directed to this site and indicate they are aware of the commitment they are undertaking:
- A message signed by the nominee:
- accepting the nomination;
- providing complete and current contact information (including a working email address);
- briefly stating field qualifications (please do not send a full CV unless requested by the executive committee or the executive director). This can be a concise statement of pertinent publications, service, or teaching experience that demonstrates to the nonspecialist that the nominee is sufficiently acquainted with the field to be able to act as a member of the board;
- a brief statement of the nominee's plans to advance the list, book-review operation, or web site, as appropriate.
In the case of a current, operating list, a message signed by one
of the current list editors:
- nominating the proposed board member;
- confirming that the nominee has been approved by the current advisory board
What happens next after nomination?
Nomination materials are submitted to the firstname.lastname@example.com account, managed by the Vice-President for Networks.
Once a nomination has been completed, it is submitted by the Vice-President for Networks to the H-Net Council weekly agenda. Certification by the Council normally occurs one week after submission, barring discussion. Approved nominees are then notified of their appointment by an H-Net officer (usually the Associate Director), who also directs them to the H-Net training site or other resource to enable them to begin their duties. Newly-appointed editors should always confirm their appointment with the on-duty or lead editor for their list.

I'm really tired of people using this '46 million', or 50 million, or whatever the number is, in order to bolster the claim that we need national health care. This amt includes anywhere from 9 to 15 million illegal aliens - NON-Americans. I am sorry, but why in the hell should we pay the health care of illegals? Secondly, the figure includes many millions of those who CAN afford to buy health care but choose not to. If they don't want it, then they don't want it - don't force them, or the rest of us, to buy it for them. If a program is needed to cover those that REALLY need it but can't get it, then let's create a program for that - let's not destroy a system that most people are happy with, a system that has incredible quality, just to cover less than a fraction of the U.S.
Part of the profit that the health care companies goes into research and development. America is a world leader in breakthrough treatments and disease prevention. I wonder how many resesearch projects will be cancelled due to the government setting the price these companies will receive. It is the future that I see impacted as we are slow to find cures and treatments. How many groundbreaking cures have you seen come out of a country with social medicine?
Another reason this is a bad idea is that the government cannot effectively run a program. One only needs to look at Social Security to see what will happen to this health care program. There has never been a long-term succesful social program ever institued by our government. Those that do not learn from history are most certainly doomed to repeat it.
And lastly, nearly every state has its own system in place to provide low cost or reduced cost insurance to its people. There has been no mention in the media about how well these systems works at the local level that are already fully funded and underused.
To Matt @ 10:27 am
- "There has never been a long-term succesful social program ever instituted by our government."
This is because our government is ,and has always been , too obstinate by wanting to do things the " American way ".
We should start looking at other countries best methods and try to study some of theirs to see if it could be adapted to improve our system .
You're right, Matt. Research is paid for by profit. Government run plan = no profit, & no advancement.
Andy - one of the factors in having a successfully run national plan is legal reform. And THAT won't happen here.
So how about a 'new word' for HEALTH CARE ? Alright here is a thought
"health care: = GOVERNMENTAL SOCIALIST AGENCY THAT WILL SAY 'NO' TO ANYONE WHO HAS A DISEASE THAT IS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR TREATMENT AND SO YOU WILL DIE WITH YOUR TUMOR OR WHATEVER AND YOU HAVE TO BUY YOUR OWN HOLE IN THE GROUND SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO BE SIX FEET BELOW, OR PLANT YOURSELF IN YOUR HOUSE BACK-YARD, AFTER DEATH ( well, somebody has to put you there for you cannot move at that time, right? )
Perhaps THE OBAMA GANG CORRUPTED ANTI-AMERICAN ADMINISTRATION will think of another term, for this one I just offered is too long ,…however this one still ok, for the government is growing so big that seems to go even beyond the outer-rim of our solar system,…so this aparently "long name " for HEALTH CARE should fit just right !
And how your day is going so far?
Good day everyone,

PS - The tv tabloids (NBC, CNN, MSNBC) , and tabloid publications such as , THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE HUFFINGTON POST, LA TIMES , etc,... along with what is left of the quasi-hypoitized brainless "utra-obamanized " cool aid drinkers people, will not take this one lightly.
Did anyone did try to 'test ' the effectivity of a public heatlh care unit (an yof them) around the country? Well, do that as an experimet, and you will find out that number of cases -( not wanted to day the majority of them) - ...number of cases, that need real good and serious attention, are for refferals to medical care OUT OF THE GOVERNMENTAL SPECTRUM FOR THE COST IS NOT "acceptable" under the 'guidelines' of public heath care . I other words, people have to go to 'paid-by-their-money' medical care / private pysiscians - MONEY THAT THEY DON'T HAVE FOR THAT IS THE REASON THEY GO TO PUBLIC HEALTH UNITS.
Picture this, and multiply the event thousand and tenth of thousand times all over the country, RATION-LIKE HEALTH CARE ,- like in others countries with this type of system of 'SOCIO- MEDICINE' and that boys and girl is what you get on this OBAMA GANG HEALTH PLAN. I offer no details now about extra taxes and the elimination of the existing health plan all over our country for that are topics for another time ,
Sufice to say this in a nut shell;
So how about a 'new word' for HEALTH CARE ? ....hummmm the 'new reform',..Alright here is a though;

Eliminate malpractice. That would save about 5-10% on physician costs. But no President Obama cannot possibly do that. It would cut the pay of lawyers by 5-10% Patients still get nothing.
The real downside to this program is not the cost but the effect on quality of care. The vast majority of Americans feel good about their quality of care. The eventual outcome of the 'reform' will be rationing of care decided by government bureaucratics a la Britain or Canada. That's when the citizens will find out what they really been sold.

The eventual outcome of the 'reform' will be rationing of care decided by government bureaucratics a la Britain or Canada. That's when the citizens will really be 'disconnected'.
It is simple. Bernie Madoff is merely the tip of the iceberg. The criminal bankers on Wall Street have been looting the people and this country for decades; at least 50% their net worth should be put in as down payment. Besides the $700 billion defense budget is way over and can be cut significantly for additional fund. Healcare and more can be covered readily.
There is decent capitalism and there is crony capitalism. What is in America is the latter, if not much worse, all the problems is just symptoms of this much deeper root cause. No wonder the country is in fast decline. One way or another, sooner or later, real change is coming; be a part of, or be the subject of this change.
Our healthcare delivery system is terribly broken: We spend $2.1 trillion per year (this amounts to $573 per person per month), nearly TWICE of what Japanese and Germans spend for ALL of their citizens, and we get worse health outcome measured in terms of longevity, infant mortality etc.
For sure, we MUST have a comprehensive Healthcare Reform, as Obama advocates for the past 2 years.
1. We may need to spend about $100 billion more for a year initially to bring in the uninsured citizens (about 35 million) as TRANSITIONAL cost - not a permanent cost. Uninsured undocumented workers need to be dealt with separately after the Immigration Reform.
2. If we practice PREVENTION and Wellness Awareness programs seriously, we could save trillions of dollars in 5-10 years and beyond, and save the Medicare from bankruptcy.
3. The current reimbursement policy does NOT have built-in incentives for good health outcome. We should not pay for each and every test that the doctors order. They must be paid for making the patient healthy. Hospitals should not be paid $2500 per day of stay! They commit fraud everyday.
4. A Public Option along with hundreds of private plans will bring the cost down dramatically in a few years.
Therefore, the current cost should not be an issue for the comprehensive HC Reform. The cost will come down to $250 per person per month. That's quite doable, if the public option gets real teeth.
As politically unpopular as it may be, real solutions to America's crisis MUST concentrate on fundamental cost reductions and modern management practices. The industry is a profit driven hodge-podge, and dysfunctional private insurance adds billions in overhead yet contribute zero value to actual care. Solutions must correct the underlying problems – inefficient distribution of services, poor quality control, and a profit driven industry dominated by self interest entrepreneurs and middlemen. Put another way, healthcare must once again refocus to efficiently deliver high quality medical and dental services – PERIOD. Other countries offer innovative examples to consider, and many U.S. non-profit models already point the way. We can no longer tolerate exclusive business contracts between profit center "providers" (formally called doctors and hospitals), grossly inflated pharmaceuticals, an artificially constricted supply of family practitioners, policy agendas written by campaign contributors, and revolving door regulators. Otherwise, despite more private insurance and unlimited taxpayer funding, American healthcare will continue to rank 43rd in performance, and No. 1 in cost.
If we stay with the status quo, family plan coverage now costing $13k per year will be at least $26k by the time this year's high school grads marry and start families. Instead of the employer paying 75% of the cost, it will be more like 25%. "Free market" think tank types want to divorce health insurance from employment and give everybody a tax credit to buy their own in the individual market, which currently covers about 16 million. Among the problems is that segment of the health insurance market is highly inefficient, with 40% going to administration (according to Baker/Dole/Daschle report). It is also a highly predatory business, cherrypicking customers and using any excuse they can dig up to retroactively rescind a policy if a customer actually starts costing money. That's not free market. It's fraud. They also have a shared data base that manipulates data to determine reasonable and customary fees paid to providers. Whatever happened to antitrust? Properly spent, the total we spend on health care is enough to finance world class health care for everybody.
The cost of health care for all Americans is currently estimated at $2.1 trillion dollars. If the government takes over the cost will be about at least $7,000 a head unless there is cost cutting. Since profit incentive for innovation will be gone the only way to to reduce costs is rationing. Of course the greedy people who think that they are entitled to free health care won't have problem with rationing until they are dying of a disease. I don't know where the liberal talking points about the United States being last in performance comes from but nothing could be further from the truth. We have the best health care industry in the world in terms of quality and access. Ask anyone who works in health care in Detroit or Buffalo about the never ending streams of people that come to American hospitals because they can't get treatment in Canada. The answers is not government control. The answer is eliminating the third party payer system and put the consumer in charge of cost control. You should get the health care that you are willing to pay for. The market would have to respond services people could afford or go out of business.
It could be argued that a significant driver of the low U.S. healthcare ranking is driven by our large, indigenous poor population. These people have terrible health statistics compared to the middle class, and I would argue that many European countries do not have this drag on their statistics. Another factor is the influx of immigrants; 50% of hispanic children born in the U.S. will have diabetes some time in their life. Of course the U.S. will look bad compared to the fairly homogeneous Sweden with a small but educated population that is fairly healthy.
I guess my point is that the U.S. ranking is not what the majority of middle class people in this country would consider accurate. I admit the current system could be better, but I am happy with it nonetheless. The health reformers are trying to radically change the system with unpredictable results. I, for one, would be happy without "reform" as the current system works fine for me.
The late Senator Russell Long had it right: "Don't tax you, don't tax me. Tax that fellow behind the tree." Everyone wants the other guy to pay for it. Even if you scraped every dime from the "wealthy" there would not be enough cash around to pay for unlimited, uncapped, all-inclusive lifetime health insurance benefits for every single resident of the United States. This is where this foolish effort will finally come to grief -- when people see exactly how much more in taxes they will have to pay. And since only about 18% of the population consume 80% of the health care tab (This is not a Rush quote. Well documented by the government and other researchers), 82% of us will have to pay much higher taxes to subsidize insurance we may never use.
I want to know - that if passed - will our elected officials will be subject to the same healthcare plan as the rest of us or will they have their own, much better plan? Just like their pension plan and our social security!
I don't want everyone else to pay for my healthcare, I just don't want leeches getting money out of me because they lack ambition and initiative.. How shameful they must feel, thinking everyone who is successful in life owes them something for um, let me see, NOTHING!!!

Utah weekend forecast: Cool, crisp and sunny statewide
Utah's weekend autumn forecast is one John Keats would relish, a season for the soul where "his wings he furleth close; contented . . . to let fair things pass by unheeded as a threshold brook."
The National Weather Service predicts a cool, crisp and sunny weekend with high temperatures Saturday around 60 degrees, mirroring its forecast for Friday. Overnight lows will be a shade above freezing.
Southern Utahns, too, may want to don a jacket early Saturday morning after overnight temperatures in the low-40s. Daytime highs will be in the low- to mid-70s, again under mostly clear skies.
Air quality statewide rates a "Green," or healthy grade, according to the Utah Division of Air Quality.
Salt Lake City's high Saturday is pegged at 61 degrees, the same as predicted for Friday; Ogden looked for 61 and 58 degrees, respectively; Provo 63 and 62; Logan 59s; Wendover 58 and 57; Duchesne 58s; Cedar City 63 and 65; St. George 76 and 77; and Moab 68s.

Dunbar teen to perform in 'Villains' at St. Vincent
When St. Vincent College's student-run theater group, "The Company," takes the stage this weekend, Kyli Stoner will get to unleash her dark side in "Villains."
Stoner, 19, of Dunbar is a sophomore at the college in Latrobe, double majoring in history and politics, and has been performing in shows since she was in fifth grade.
She also is a former voice student of Kelly Bell of Connellsville.
"I love performing because I completely transform on stage and can be anyone I want to be. I especially love 'Villains' because it's always fun to challenge yourself and to be the bad guy," Stoner said.
Director Theresa Naph of Pittsburgh, also a student at St. Vincent, said the show is an original cabaret that includes songs from 21 different musicals, including "Assassins," "Wicked," "Phantom of the Opera," "Jekyll and Hyde" and "Annie," just to name a few.
"There are a broad range of musicals from the well-known shows to the not-so-well-known shows," Naph said. "We've taken some of the villains and antagonists from each show and there is a theme throughout it. We have two emcees who guide the show along and they talk about what makes someone a villain and are they really that bad and it challenges the audience to really think about that."
Stoner will appear in two numbers in the original musical composite titled "Villains." She will portray Mrs. Meers in the musical number "They Don't Know" from "Thoroughly Modern Millie" and she will also portray Six in the "Cell Block Tango" from "Chicago."
"My favorite song to perform is 'Cell Block Tango' because it is a dance-intensive number and I can't wait to showcase the amount of talent that is in the song. There are a few surprises tucked into the number that will have the audience impressed," Stoner said.
Naph described Stoner's performance in rehearsals for the show as amazing.
"She brings such charisma and the talent that she has is just phenomenal," Naph said.
The show will be performed at 8 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday in the Robert S. Carey Student Center Performing Arts Center at the college.
Admission is free for all performances, but freewill donations will be accepted. No reservations are required. Seating is general admission. Doors will open one-half hour before each performance.
"The audience will love the variety in the show. Even though we're the bad guys, it's such a light-hearted show that's comical. I hope the audience feeds off of our energy on stage so everybody has a great time," Stoner said.

text: In an earlier post, I mentioned two books on my list for summer reading: Eugene Peterson's Run with the Horses: the Quest for Life at its Best and Practice Resurrection, the fifth and last in Peterson's series of conversations about spiritual theology/scripture. Then I added a couple of novels including Leif Enger's Peace Like a River. Yesterday I happened to catch up with Christian Century's Spring Books reviews and oh, my gosh! There I found reviews of Peterson's and Enger's books and so much more. For all who long to dig more deeply into scripture, Eugene Peterson's work is the best. Run with the Horses is Jeremiah's story and helps me make better sense of our time and place and the ongoing struggle to be faithful. Practice Resurrection together with the other four in Peterson's series builds bridges between biblical texts (in this case, Ephesians) and our contemporary context. All five are timely and deeply nourishing. Enger's Peace Like a River is a totally gripping modern parable. If you haven't read it, put it on your list! The writing and character development is stunning and it's rich with theological themes. I look forward to conversations with pastors, teachers, and other leaders about these important voices!

Issaquah Gliders alumni return to coach, support track and field team
July 31, 2012
By Brandon Adam
Joanne Hartmann has volunteered with the Issaquah Gliders for 15 years.
The Issaquah Gliders is a track and field team featuring events for young children between ages 5 and 14.
The program functions as an athletic experience to introduce young children to track and field, and overall health and wellness.
The program "is to gain an appreciation for fitness for running outside, running in all different kinds of weather," Hartman said.
She said the focus of the program is to have children and their families participate in the program.
"Hopefully, they will be encouraged to participate in a lifetime of fitness," Hartman, 49, of Issaquah, said.
As lead coordinator, her responsibility is to organize practices for the young children being introduced to the sport.
Hartman said she feels positive about the program's philosophy.
"I feel very excited about it, it's very youth-focused," she said, "so everyone has fun, and running is a lifestyle activity."
The track program features modified events for different age groups.
"They can learn the correct form and correct technique," Hartman said. "The implements are improvised."
Certain events vary between age groups in terms of distance, and weight of projectiles thrown, such as a shot put and a javelin.

Before Hartman began volunteering for the Gliders she came from Eastern Washington as a teacher.
"I moved here when I graduated from college and got a teaching job," she said.
One unique aspect about the Gliders is that alumni come back to support the team and assist in coaching.
"I write the practice plan. They coach it," Hartman said.
Drew Matthews, a 2012 Skyline High School graduate, will run for the University of Kansas next spring. He currently coaches sprints for the Gliders.
Matthews has only good things to say about his personal experience with the program and Hartman as his coach.
"The Gliders changed my life," he said. "I found track by accident and it has taken me a long way."
Throughout his school years, Matthews ran cross-country and sprints.
"I started in the first grade," he said. "I was on the team up until last year and now I'm a coach for the first time."
Matthews said he appreciates his 12 years of being coached by Hartman.
"It's meant a lot to me that she has coached me for that long and allowed me to come on the coaching staff," he said.
Matthews said he likes that Hartman brings enjoyment to the Gliders program.
"One thing that Joanne stresses is to have fun, so everyone has an equal opportunity to have fun," he said.
Matthews will study business at the University of Kansas and will run sprints.
Another coaching volunteer who participated with the Gliders is Matt Frerker, who also graduated from Skyline. Frerker recently finished his fifth year at Portland State University.
"I met her when I was in the sixth grade." Frerker said of Hartman. "Since then, I've been running with her and coaching with her for almost 10 years."
Frerker said he finds Hartman's coaching to be a positive asset to the Gliders.
"She's a great influence on the kids," he said. "She really understood me as an athlete.
When Frerker became involved with Gliders he soon got his friends to join in.
"We started running with the team and once I got old enough I started volunteering and started coaching," he said.
Frerker graduated from Portland State in 2011 and is currently finishing his master's in accounting.

In tonight's episode of Doctor Who, a salvage ship catches and causes some serious damage to Tardis. Clara (Jenna-Louise Coleman) is trapped inside the "infinite" Tardis so The Doctor (Matt Smith) enlists, or rather forces, the help of the salvage ship crew – he locks the door and tells them he has set the self destruct to go off in 30 minutes so they need to find Clara before that happens.
On their journey through the Tardis, The Doctor and the Van Baalan brothers find an extremely valuable machine that can create other machines – whatever is desired. Too tempted by this, and against The Doctor's warning, Gregor Van Baalen (Ashley Walters) takes a section of the circuit. The Tardis then creates a maze to trap The Doctor and the crew until Gregor gives the circuit back.
Tricky Van Baalen (Jahvel Hall) who believes he is an android but actually turns out to be a human with bionic eyes and a synthetic voice box, tell Gregor to give the circuit back. Due to this the Tardis leads him and The Doctor to an echo of the control room in order to protect them.
Meanwhile Clara has found the library and reads "The History of the Time War" and discovers The Doctor has a name. She also gets chased by a monster around the endless corridors of the Tardis. Bram Van Baalen (Mark Oliver) is killed by one of these monsters as he explores the Tardis separately from the others.
Clara is also led to an echo and the control room, but on a different frequency to The Doctor. However, The Doctor being The Doctor manages to break through to Clara's frequency and grab her to his, just before she is attacked by one of the monsters.
Now reunited, the next task is to repair the damage to the Tardis which means going right to the centre. On their way they discover there is a rupture in time aboard the Tardis which means bits of the past and the future are leaking through. The monsters are actually burnt zombie versions of Clara from the future who died in the room with the exploding star (don't ask. It's something to do with the Tardis' power supply).
In the panic that they might not get to the centre of the Tardis in time and the fact that Clara is set to die once again, The Doctor questions Clara on who she is and tells her about the other hers he has met and lost. But she has no idea what he is talking about and The Doctor calms down enough to realise that the dangerous zones the Tardis keeps throwing at them are actually like the snarls of an animal. It is trying to scare them away from the core.
With that in mind, The Doctor and Clara jump off a ledge and arrive at the centre – a white room filled with floating scraps of metal – but they are too late. But then The Doctor notices the burn markings on Clara's hand from a grenade type object she picked up at the beginning of the episode. This tells The Doctor what he has to do to save them all.
The Doctor reaches through one of the time rifts for just enough time to tell the past him what to do to prevent the whole salvage escapade and death of them all – he throws him the grenade object which is actually a reset button, resetting time to before the Tardis is captured and leaving all the people involved with no memory of the days happenings.

SOUTH KINGSTOWNŌĆöThe ocean is a vast and multicolored canvas upon which humans use different paint strokes in order to classify and document its usages. In any given area, the seascape is used for everything from launching kayaks to dredging the oceanŌĆÖs bottom to construct underwater natural gas lines. No one document, however, exists to catalog all of these usages at any particular time.
Researchers from environmental and university groups met on Tuesday to discuss the implementation of the Rhode Island Ocean Special Area Management Plan, or SAMP. This plan, unanimously approved by the Coastal Resources Management Center (CRMC) in October 2010, is designed to be a vital tool for understanding how the oceanŌĆÖs waters in Rhode Island and Block Island Sound are used.
ŌĆ£Now we do not have any one place where people can go to get information, and all of our data collection is done in a totally stove piped way,ŌĆØ said Betsy Nicholson, Northeast Lead for NOAAŌĆÖs Coastal Services Center.
ŌĆ£My message could be as simple as, ŌĆślook at the people who are using the ocean,ŌĆØ said Jeff Dewey, Water Program Specialist for the Pennsylvania office of the Environmental Protection Agency. ŌĆ£Until we understand how the ocean is being used, we cannot make concrete decisions.ŌĆØ
The Ocean SAMP, developed by a team of researchers from CRMC and URIŌĆÖs Coastal Resources Center, is a depository for the numerous environmental and economic studies done concerning potential use in any way of the ocean. A large component of the SAMP includes significant marine spatial planning which will produce a multilayered map of data detailing important information about economic, ecological, and recreational usages and realities of the oceanŌĆÖs makeup.
ŌĆ£The Ocean SAMP is about data management,ŌĆØ said Nicholson. ŌĆ£It is a very visual way for businesses to see how decisions can be made and makes it much easier for them to get projects through.ŌĆØ

The Los Angeles Times is Stupid (Canto MCXVI)
It's painful picking up the Los Angeles Times every morning and notice it's getting lighter every week. While they're doing this, however, their Chicago pendejo overseers are spending mucho millions on how to attract more readers. Their supposed salvation: Mexicans.
If so, why in God's green earth would they axe La Cucaracha, the pinche funny comic strip drawn by legendary pocho Lalo Alcaraz??? It's one of the precious few comic strips in Latino USA drawn by Latinos and that deal with Latino issues. But fuck affirmative action: the strip is funny (we'll never forget the one or two strips dealing with Paris Hilton's Mexican relative, Fresno). What's more boggling is that the Times deported Lalo while keeping creaking gabacho favorites like Crankshaft and Rex Morgan, MD and unfunny tripe like Dennis the Menace and that weird one with the kid that doesn't talk.
Below is Lalo's take. And Los Times: if you ever get rid of 9 Chickweed Lane, I'm cancelling my free subscription.
Dear friends
My daily comic strip, La Cucaracha has been CUT from the LA TIMES, without so much as an explanation. Can you please help bring to their attention that perhaps Los Angeles, with its majority Raza population might need at least ONE THING in the newspaper to show kids and grownups that represents a large part of Los Angeles in the paper? I'm thinking "Blondie" isn't really reflective of Los Angeles.

Our nation is involved in two different kinds of deficits - each of which are just as important as the other.
Spending deficit, which often is mislabeled as the budget deficit, is the shortage that occurs when our government spends more money than it takes in from taxes, interest receipts, etc. Trade deficit is the shortage when our country - through mostly private businesses - imports more worth than it exports.Buy now, pay later
During fiscal year 2013, government spending amounted to $3.48 trillion while receipts were $2.8 trillion. There was a resulting deficit of $680 billion reported ...

Breathe Deep CNY is a grassroots event that was started 8 years ago by the family of Brenda Shue. Brenda was a very warm, family-centered person who was only 49 years old when she was diagnosed with lung cancer. She fought hard for her life but ultimately succumbed to this disease. Many of the volunteers who make this event possible do so because they have friends and family members who have been affected by lung cancer and would like to help others by raising much-needed lung cancer research dollars.

Santoli English
Jeanne M. Santoli '87
Medical Epidemiologist, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
My pre-Princeton, pre-med plans
There is a country song by Garth Brooks that makes the point that some of our "greatest gifts are unanswered prayers." I suspect this is a lyric that resonates with most people. For my part, over the years, I've seen many times over that the experiences I've grown or learned the most from have been those that didn't work out exactly as I'd planned or anticipated. Disappointing as such times may be, in the end, once the sting of disappointment fades, things usually work out for the best. And so it was with my choice of a college major.
Ever since I can remember, I've always wanted to become a pediatrician. Working with children had always held a very special appeal for me, and impressions that I had of doctors, including my own pediatrician and Marcus Welby, inspired me to think that tending to the health of children would be the best way to make a difference in their lives. And because children have the potential to become anyone or accomplish anything, impacting children means impacting the future.
Coming to Princeton interested in medical school, I just assumed that I would major in one of the traditional pre-med sciences, such as biology or chemistry. In high school, I'd enjoyed the sciences and done quite well. Once I started taking freshman courses, however, including a freshman chemistry class with a strong focus on organic chemistry, I struggled with the work and found I didn't really enjoy it. At first this made me wonder if I still wanted to be a doctor, but after thinking this through, I realized that I wasn't ready to give up on my dream of being a pediatrician and that basic science wasn't the same as practicing medicine, even if it was a rite of passage on the way to becoming a physician.
An alternative route
Determined not to give up on my dream just yet, I decided to explore if it was possible to meet the requirements for medical school without actually majoring in science. Much to my surprise, I found that if I used all of my electives to fulfill my science requirements, I could meet the requirements for most American medical schools and still major in English literature, a topic I thoroughly enjoyed but had initially thought was an impractical choice for someone who wanted to go to medical school.
Realizing that I could stay on the path to becoming a physician, I dove into my literature course work with great enthusiasm and also focused on the traditional pre-med requirements such as biology, organic chemistry, and physics. My fascination with a number of American authors led me to also pursue a certificate in American studies. Along the way, I discovered Jack Kerouac, an American author who typified a group of restless artists named "The Beat Generation," and I decided to focus my senior thesis on the treatment of women in his writing.
During senior year, I applied to a number of medical schools, hoping that my strategy of majoring in English literature would prove to have been a reasonable choice. I was fortunate enough to be granted the opportunity to interview for positions at a number of medical schools, where I found much receptivity when I explained to faculty interviewers that I'd majored in English literature rather than biology or chemistry. First, I discovered that a number of faculty I'd met had also majored or minored in areas other than science, and second, among those who had majored in science, the fact that I had majored in literature usually prompted some discussion of the interests these faculty members had outside of their clinical work and research.
Now I must admit that the first two years of medical school challenged me in ways that this same work probably didn't challenge my classmates who majored in a scientific area. And when I got a note from my biochemistry professor following the first exam that indicated that I "appeared to have misunderstood much of the lecture material," I again wondered if perhaps my decision to major in literature had been a wise one. But I've always been convinced that perseverance and hard work can make up for any number of shortcomings, and so, along with many of my classmates, I burned the midnight oil and worked as much as I could to learn the information and concepts I encountered during the first two years of course work.
By the time second year of medical school ended, and I finally donned my short white coat and headed onto the wards to work with actual patients, I realized that many of the nonscientific skills that I'd had the chance to refine or develop during my undergraduate education were my most valuable assets. These included the ability to study and learn new material; to communicate clearly in oral and written form; to analyze information critically; and to use clear, cogent, and convincing arguments to support my conclusions and interpretations (alliteration doesn't hurt, either!). It's pretty obvious that none of these skills is unique to a particular field of study—you develop them any time that you enthusiastically pursue new knowledge.
Reaching my goal
Several years later, I experienced another "unanswered prayer" when an opportunity to teach primary care to pediatric residents fell through after months of interviews. I decide to take a position in public health for a year or two as I looked for a way to make my way back to clinical medicine. I joined the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as a medical epidemiologist in the immunization program, with a focus on conducting health services research to identify and evaluate strategies to enhance the delivery of vaccines to children, adolescents, and adults. Shortly after I arrived, I was asked to write a literature review for publication and I realized that one of things that most helped me to accomplish that task was the skill set I'd learned and honed as student majoring in English literature. The "literature" I reviewed for this particular project was quite different than what I'd been exposed to in college, for sure, but the approach to reviewing it, developing and presenting an argument, and writing a concise document came right out of my undergraduate education.
Three years later, I was asked to become a science adviser within my division, and one of the primary tasks for that work involved reviewing and providing input into the manuscripts of fellow scientists. I'm not sure there was more fitting work for an English literature major turned doctor turned health services researcher. And in fact, despite my one- to two-year timeline for working in public health, I'll be completing my 10th year at the CDC in January 2008. In terms of my long ago goal of wanting to impact the future, I've found a great way to do that right here.
