Harriet TubmanAntislavery Activist
Born: c. 1820
Died: 15 March 1913
Birthplace: Dorchester County, Maryland
Best known as: The most famous conductor on the 'Underground Railroad'

Name at birth: Araminta Ross

Harriet Tubman helped hundreds of American slaves escape along the secret route to freedom known as the Underground Railroad. Born a slave herself, she fled from Maryland to freedom in Philadelphia in 1849. For the next 10 years she made repeated secret trips back to Maryland, leading over 300 escaped slaves north to freedom in Canada. During the Civil War she also served the Union as a scout, spy and nurse. Her success at shepherding others to safety earned her the nickname "the Moses of her People" and made her a lasting symbol of the American anti-slavery movement.
Extra credit:
Though her birth name was Araminta, Tubman later took the first name of her mother, Harriet Ross… She married John Tubman, a freed slave, in 1844, but remained a slave herself until her escape in 1849.

I am a little bit concerned whether or not I like the new packaging better than the old one. A pump seems a bit more hygienic to me. However that being said it is a great product. I mix it up with my moisturizer at night or use it on it's own (also at night). I have combination skin, so it is too oily for me to use under my make-up, but it definitely calms and soothes the skin overnight. Helps prevent and actually clears up the blemishes too! Love it!

I'm very concerend with the junk a lot of skin care lines throw into their products so I was very happy to stumble across Suki after getting a sample through www.saffronrouge.com. I am 37 and have combo skin. I've learned that oil-based products are actually ok for my skin. This product did exactly what it claimed which was to even out my completion and provide an oil-free and matte finish all day. I typically have to use blotting powder by noon but I didn't have to at all. I will absolutely buy a full-size of this and I look forward to trying other Suki products!!

This blows the doors of Hauschka's oil. More sophisticated ingredients and a great scent. The Borage oil in it is great for acne inflammation. I am inclined to take off another lippie, though, because I hate that this comes in a dropper and not a pump. I don't like constantly exposing the product to air. It costs about 29$ for 1/2 oz. Though I wouldn't turn it down if I received it as a gift, I don't think I'd repurchase. I am now using Juice Beauty's organic facial (oil) moisturizer which comes in a pump and costs much less per ounce and gives me better, more noticeable results.

I use this at night time only because it's too heavy for the day time.
When I wake up, my skin is glowing and it has not broken me out. I love the smell of this even more than the toner and I look forward to using it.
Even though it only comes in 15ml, it lasts a very long time because I only use 2 drops when my face is still damp from the toner. Any more than 3 drops is too much and can become very oily.
Update: Blackhead fertilizer it has become. Horrible. I'm getting clogged pores where I normally wouldn't ever. Upsides are that my skin is the most hydrated it has ever been in winter, it smells great and the bottle lasts long. However, it's not working for me! So disappointed because I was hoping this would end my search and I wanted to love this. Now I don't know what to do with it, I've only just scratched the surface.

I used to use this oil, albeit very sparingly. Only during the coldest months in winter, when my skin tends to have dry patches. I'd put it on very lightly around my mouth and nose.
Any other time of year or area of my face, and this product just adds fuel to the fire that is my very oily skin.
Pure jojoba doesn't clog my pores but for some reason, this product was not absorbed by my skin. I wish there was a lighter carrier for the other ingredients (purified water, maybe?).
Also, it kept my skin from feeling parched in winter but did nothing to improve it's overall condition. If I'm gonna spend so much money on something, I need to see better results.
I like how it smells, but I think if you're sensitive to fragrances, especially those so close to your nose and eyes, you may have a problem.
Since I couldn't use it most times, I gave it away. However, I want to continue to support the mission of Suki. I'm saving up for Suki Spa Bio-Active Purifying Serum, which I'm hoping will be a good treatment to use in conjuction with the Pangea Organics balancing oil that I am now using.

I love this! It really disappoints me to see so many negative comments because this has been such a wonderful product for me. I 19 and normal to combination skin - it only sometimes gets oily or dry in places.
- makes my skin glow
- gives me a rested look
- makes a smooth surface for cream/liquid makeup (you should wait 10 minutes and blot with a washcloth first though to make sure there is not excess oil)
- reduces breakouts
- doubles as an eye makeup remover (because it is an oil)
- can make eye makeup, especially liner, smear (again, this is because it is an oil. if you tap some powder around your eyes and use waterproof liner this will not be an issue at all)
- can cause powder to go on unevenly (this is only a problem if you are applying to skin which the oil is not completely soaked in on)
- the eyedropper can get stuck in the cap (hardly an issue as the dropper is not necessary, and it comes out easily)
all of those cons are easily preventable/manageable. my skin looks incredible because of this product, i am constantly reccomending it to friends who ask what i do for my skin. (the answer is just about nothing - i wash it in the shower and put this on morning and night - i dont even bother taking off my makeup). i dont have gorgeous skin naturally, but this product fools me into thinking i do!!!!!

i got given a sample of this with a swap so i cant comment on the price but packaging for a sample is awful especially as it is an oil it just dribbles everywhere. secondly smell- not fan and the bf hated it even more. third i have mixed skin no breakouts yet this turned my skin into an oil slick i had to use blotting papers which i never use and now i have a few breakouts so as far i am concerned this is one for the bin!

N.B. This has been renamed Pure Facial Moisture - Balancing as Suki has introduced a range of "bio active serums".
I've been pleasantly surprised at liking this product, finding it effective, and experiencing no adverse reactions so far on my very sensitive skin. I often feel I have to choose between having a dull, parched, irritated but spot-free complexion, and hydrated, nourished yet congested skin. However, the carrier oils in this are among the lightest and the essential oils in the formulation are some of the few that I personally tend to be able to tolerate - calendula, blue chamomile, etc (see ingredients list at top of page).
I tend to make my own oil blends rather than buy ready made ones, as I have the constituent parts at home anyway. However the Suki FMS is more sophisticated than I could achieve without investing a great deal of time and energy. I'm also going through a period of desperation about my skin, which over the past year has become very blemish-prone in areas due to some long-term medication. The Suki product was recommended to me as being suitable for dry areas of my combination skin without causing any untoward spotty reactions.
To begin with I used it once a day at night after cleansing and toning. It should be noted that I didn't use other products in the Suki range for this - jojoba oil to remove make-up, then Madara Purifying Floral Foam, Avene Gentle Gel Cleanser or Lush Angels on Bare Skin to cleanse (depending on time of day/state of skin), followed by pure rosewater as a toner. With my face still tacky to damp from the latter, I'd apply several drops of Suki FMS. I started off with a 2ml sample bottle from the anti-inflammatory kit (try UK website www.lovelula.com) which lasted several weeks. This is clear glass and doesn't have a dropper to dispense the product, so I keep it out of the light and use a pipette to transfer it from the bottle to my palm. I gently pat it over different parts of my face, then dampen my fingers slightly with warm water and massage it into my skin until there's no trace left on the surface. 20 minutes or so later, I blot my face with tissue just in case.
Over the course of a few months I've noticed a definite radiance to my skin. I don't use the product nightly any more because a new crop of whiteheads emerged. This seems to have been caused by a combination of the medication and something else I patch-tested (the timings tally) but I didn't want to risk making the situation worse. Instead I use it to boost the condition of my skin a couple of times a week. FMS makes it much more supple, smooth and glowy. The morning after I look as though I'm wearing an amazingly effective illuminating foundation, which always puts me in a good mood. It's lovely to look in the mirror and think, "Hello pretty lady" as opposed to, "Ugh". As I'm sure plenty of you know, when you have problematic skin, your confidence can take a real nosedive.
This hasn't done anything to resolve my skin's bad behaviour, which has internal causes. However, the results I do get from it haven't been equalled by any other product. Some reviewers aren't keen on the scent, which to me is almost sherbety. I happen to like it and find it quite uplifting - just a matter of taste. Another point that has been raised is the cost, which I agree is too high and would usually be prohibitive for me - a definite indulgence. Ł29.44/15ml at lovelula.com (UK).

Eight years ago, Eddie Fagan had an idea. As he tried to remove icicles from his tenants' one-story homes in North Syracuse, he thought, "Wouldn't it be easier if there was a tool for this job."
"People were going in and out all the time and kids were playing in the yard, and with the icicles forming around the doorways, it was dangerous. I feared for my tenants," he said.
Hassled by the use of axes and ladders, Fagan set to work on an invention that would not only be safer, but also easier to remove the icicles. On March 23, 2010, Fagan received his patent, and the De-Icicler was official.
The De-Icicler is a steel, 1 pound 1 once blade with a tooth-like edge used to knock down small icicles off roofs before they cause serious damage, said Fagan. With a circular hole in the center, the tool can also be slid up around the icicle, and then used to pull the ice away from windows. Standing at a 30 degree angle, the user avoids being hit by the falling icicles.
The De-Icicler is designed for an average sized one-story home, more specifically over windows, doorways and garages The process takes about two to three minutes to go along one side of a one-story home and knock down the icicles.
Icicles cause a variety of damage to the homeowner and their home, explained Fagan. When someone exits a doorway and they slam the door, an icicle could fall on their head. Falling ice could also damage outdoor meters, cars and patio furniture, and dammed water could cause damage to shingles on the roof. And when ice begins to melt and drip, dangerous puddles of ice form that could cause a fall.
"I'd like to save some lives with this thing," he said.

We need more "G.I. Joe's" for change in the White House not "Joker Joe's" like the one we got with Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. Thursday night.
Biden's "laughing gas" performance in the face of a failing economy and an internal moral crisis that threatens the very foundation of religious freedom in America was sadly typical of what we the people have come to expect from the Obama administration over the past four years.
Even in his lucid moments Biden, was confused and contradictory in his debate with the more articulate, respectful, optimistic and futuristic Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan.
While claiming to be a devout Catholic and opponent of abortion, Biden hypocritically asserted that he could not "impose" his religious views on others. This is tantamount to living a double life. Even the "Average Joe" knows that every civil law passed is, in fact, an imposition on someone.
We need to get rid of the jokers in the White House who fiddle while America burns. November is the time to do it.

2009 Chevrolet Traverse LS 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
we have own the traverse since its release. we have had timing chain issues, transmission issues, A/C issues, and power steering issues. keep an extended warranty or get ready to fork over some cash for poor design, and poor workmanship.
size/seating capability. but now that the AC doesnt work, taking the family anywhere is mute.
keep the body style, scrap everything else
I bought my car new off the lot in 2009. I have had numerous problems with this car since i bought it. Starting with the air conditioning knob which until this day has not been fixed because they can not duplicate the problem. The next would be the trip i took right after we got the car and the water pump blew which left my family of six sitting in the middle of no where with no cell phone access in 90+ degree weather. The car can not stop on a small hill without rolling back.
But the one that i am dealing with now is the transmission. The car will not shift into gear, it shuts down on the freeway. It's going back in the shop yet again. Do not waste your hard earned money on this car!
Spacious, looks good from the outside.
Transmission, uncomfortable seating, tires, power steering, air conditioning unit, and many, many more..
I owned a 2009 for two years. Just sold last week. Hallelujah!
Nonetheless, the Traverse drives and handles like a minivan. The plastic around and on the doors
interior was already beginning to wear. Wires to a box located under driver's seat were loose and caused the "service airbag" light to display.
Worst of all, there is no spare on the LS model. Instead, Chevy equips this vehicle with a mini air pump and some flat tire fixer. Not cool if the tire has a hole in it.
The middle row of seats vibrated horribly. The 3rd row wasn't an issue.
Glad to be rid of it. No more American made cars for me.
Hidden compartment in back; console in dash; sliding second row; privacy glass; lots of air vents.
Address shaking of second row. Spare tire on all models.
Love my Traverse! Except the fact that it has been in the shop over 4 weeks this year. Timing chains(stretched) replaced twice, timing chain tensioners (weak) replaced, emission problem fixed, fuel injector fixed, shrill high pitched noise when radio/cd/dvd is on that tech can't seem to duplicate. Feel I have a lemon but really love my Traverse when it is running decently! Just do not feel I can rely on it. :~(
sporty, not your mother's mini-van
center console takes us too much space, could have much more storage instead. Needs to be more reliable!
I recently purchased my certified 2009 Traverse. I am already thinking it's time to unload the truck. I think I need to purchase a 2010. The truck is making a whining noise that sounds like the power steering. I also noticed that the brakes tried to lock up this weekend. Last but not least, the dealership has inspected my car 2xs already. Today, will be the third time. This is costing me time and money. I haven't received my tags yet and the 30 day tags they issued expire tomorrow. I think its time to stop being nice. I do like the ride, the room and I'm proud to drive and American made vehicle.
Drive, cargo space and the room.

Lian Li doesn't really have a reputation for catering to the LAN party crowd, and perhaps that's something the case maker would like to change. Announced today is the PC-TU200 mini-tower PC chassis, a compact and portable enclosure with a handle on top for easy transport and an all-aluminum body that weighs less than 7 pounds.
It's available in black or silver and sports a "nuclear football" design. There's a single 140mm fan in front to suck cool air into the chassis and distribute said airflow throughout the case. That doesn't seem like much, but combined with the aluminum construction and rounded feet to elevate the bottom, Lian Li says the PC-TU200 is thermally efficient.
Lian Li says getting into the PC-TU200 is easy as pie thanks to a release lever on the back panel and corresponding side panels, which pop right off. Inside you'll find a hard disk cage with room for up to four 3.5-inch drives, so RAID isn't out of the question. There are two expansion slots, HD audio ports, eSATA, two built-in dual 20-pin USB 3.0 connectors, and room enough to hold hold graphics cards 11.81 inches (300mm) in length.
No word on price or availability.

EURUSD Greece will Split Europe
Intensifying anxiety over Greece sent European stock markets lower Tuesday, with the new government set on a collision course with creditors over plans to renegotiate its enormous bailout, analysts said.
London's benchmark FTSE 100 index of top companies fell 0.43 percent to 6,823.10 points, as investors also digested data showing Britain's economic growth slowed to 0.5 percent in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Elsewhere, Frankfurt's DAX 30 shed 0.58 percent to 10,735 and the CAC 40 in Paris lost 0.66 percent to 4,644 points compared with Monday's close.
– Greece 'leaving behind austerity' –
The Athens stock market plunged by another 2.81 percent, having tumbled 3.2 percent the previous day on news that anti-austerity party Syriza won the Greek election over the weekend.
However, Europe's main indices had mostly risen on Monday, shrugging off fears of a Greek eurozone exit or so-called Grexit.
Later on Tuesday, New Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras will unveil his anti-austerity coalition administration, bringing together his radical left-wing party with the nationalist right, after a stunning election win that sent shockwaves through Europe.
Tsipras declared Sunday that Greece is "leaving behind disastrous austerity" and the so-called troika of creditors "is finished", in reference to the country's international lenders the European Union, the International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank.
"The Greek elections might be over but markets remain preoccupied with what the new government will do next, conscious that a stern test of the eurozone's commitment to stay together could be just round the corner," said analyst Connor Campbell at trading firm Spreadex.

– 'Limited' contagion risks –
He added: "Syriza appear to be creating a 10-minister cabinet that is diametrically opposed to what (the) troika and the eurozone would want from Greece, and the reality of this is finally making itself felt on the markets today."
Syriza are the first anti-austerity party to govern in Europe, but they fell two seats short of a 151-seat majority in parliament and were thus forced to forge a coalition with the small right-wing Independent Greeks (ANEL) party.
In foreign exchange activity on Tuesday, the European single currency rose to 1.1307 in London deals on Tuesday, having hit Monday an 11-year low of 1.1098 on fears Greece could leave the eurozone.
"Difficult negotiations lie ahead to agree on a follow-up bailout with Greece's troika creditors," added Citi analyst Ebrahim Rahbari in a note to clients.
"In our view, it is likely that an agreement will eventually be found due to the strong mutual incentives of the Greek government and its eurozone creditors to avoid the worst-case scenarios of Greek government default or Grexit, but an agreement requires significant concessions by both sides, so the negotiations will likely be lengthy and could fail."
Rahbari added: "We consider the near-term contagion risk to other eurozone countries to be limited, but political risks in the eurozone are rising more broadly."
Most Asian stock markets climbed Tuesday on hopes Greece's new government will be able to negotiate a bailout deal with the EU and IMF that will prevent it from leaving the eurozone.

The authentic spin on Milwaukee's DJ and hip-hop scene
Watch Klassik and Fresh Cut Collective perform on PBS, yes that PBS
I never thought I'd write that headline in my time here at JSOnline. Ever. But back in April, Klassik and Fresh Cut Collective were featured on the "30 Minute Music Hour" on PBS. Even though the setting seemed to be more chill, that didn't stop Klassik from sweating out his freshly cut hair as he performed songs from his latest album Young Rising Phenoms. And like always, Fresh Cut Collective's backing made each song even more funkier so this not a performance you want to miss.
Let's continue to strive to get more music acts on television as a regular occurrence. When there's multiple to choose from, we don't have to worry about the ones that may not go so well because we'd already be using the same energy (preferably more) promoting and sharing on the ones that do. Right? Cool. Enjoy.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -- One win from the World Series.
For 16 years, the Angels waited to get back. Now they're on the
verge again, and just like in 1986, they have three tries at
winning the first pennant in franchise history.
"I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight. One more win and
we're in!'' Bengie Molina said after Anaheim broke up a scoreless
game in the seventh inning and beat the Minnesota Twins 7-1
Saturday night for a 3-1 lead in the AL championship series.
Rookie John Lackey outpitched Brad Radke with seven shutout
innings, postseason star Troy Glaus hit a go-ahead single in the
seventh and Anaheim broke it open against Minnesota's bullpen.
And it happened exactly 16 years to the day that the Angels were
just one strike from a World Series trip before Boston's Dave
Henderson homered off Donnie Moore, starting the Angels' downward
spiral. The Red Sox came back to win in extra innings, then won the
next two games at Fenway Park to win the series 4-3.
"We're not counting anything yet. There's a huge challenge
ahead of us,'' Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "You don't taste
it until you win four games in the series and that last out is
made. We've been around long enough to know that.''
Lackey, a 23-year-old rookie right-hander who made his major
league debut June 24, made it three straight for the Angels since
the series-opening loss at the Metrodome. He is only the No. 4
starter for Anaheim but he pitched like an ace, holding the Twins
to three singles in seven innings, striking out seven and walking
none. He didn't let a runner past first base.
"For a youngster who was in the minor leagues 3½ months ago to
come up and do that was incredible,'' Scioscia said. "John was
about as on tonight as you could be.''
It was another electric night at Edison Field, with the crowd of
44,830 nearly all in red. Fans banged their inflatable plastic
Thunder Stix from start to finish, waved their stuffed "rally
monkeys'' and even wore feathery halos on their heads.
"One cloud away,'' read one hope-filled sign behind the Twins'
For 42 years, the theme of this franchise has been "Heaven Can
Wait,'' with the Angels failing to advance to the World Series that
founding owner Gene Autry had dreamed of for decades.
Kevin Appier can end the waiting Sunday and put the Angels in
the World Series against San Francisco or St. Louis. He will start
against Joe Mays, the pitcher he lost to in the opener. Anaheim is
4-0 at home during the playoffs.
Minnesota is one loss from a frustrating end to a surprising
season. The Twins survived the attempt by baseball owners to fold
the franchise, advanced to the playoffs for the first time in 11
years, then upset Oakland 3-2 in the first round.
"We just got to play loose and not worry and, hopefully, we can
win one and go back home,'' first baseman Doug Mientkiewicz said.
"You know our record at home. If we go back down 3-2, we feel like
we've got a chance.''
Pitchers dominated as they have throughout the series. Anaheim,
which has outscored the Twins 16-7, is hitting .237, only slightly
better than Minnesota's .217.
Lackey's only previous postseason appearance was in Game 3 of
the first-round series against the New York Yankees, when he
pitched three shutout innings in the Angels' comeback from a
five-run deficit. He hadn't started since Sept. 26, but allowed
just one leadoff runner, using a sharp breaking ball and kept his
fastball down to stifle the Twins.
At the same time, Radke was blanking the Angels.
"It was a situation where I was trying to match him pitch for
pitch,'' Lackey said. "He was throwing a tremendous game himself.
Our guys have been battling all year. I knew they eventually would
come through.''
Radke, who beat Oakland in Games 1 and 5 of the first round,
allowed just two hits in the first six innings, went to just one
2-0 count and didn't go to three balls on any batters.
"He did everything he was supposed to do for this baseball
team,'' Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Their hits were
bloops. They got one solid hit -- Glaus hit a solid ball.''
Darin Erstad singled leading off the seventh, becoming Anaheim's
third runner. When he broke for second on a steal attempt,
Minnesota's defense cracked again. Catcher A.J. Pierzynski's throw
bounced into center for the Twins' seventh error of the postseason,
and Erstad took third.
Tim Salmon walked, Garret Anderson popped out and Glaus, whose
eighth-inning homer gave the Angels a 2-1 win Friday, lined a 1-0
pitch into left field for the first run. Scott Spiezio added a
bloop RBI double that landed just inside the right-field line.
It got ugly in the eighth, after Erstad hit a one-out single and
Johan Santana threw away a pickoff for error No. 8. Anderson
singled in a run in off J.C. Romero, and Mike Jackson gave up Brad
Fullmer's two-run double and Molina's two-run triple -- his first in
two years.
Francisco Rodriguez pitched the eighth, and Ben Weber finished
the six-hitter, giving up an RBI single to David Ortiz.
Now, the wild-card Angels have three chances for that elusive
pennant-winning victory. Exactly 16 years ago, on Oct. 12, 1986,
they were one strike away when Boston's Dave Henderson hit a
go-ahead, two-run homer off Moore. The Red Sox went on to win in
extra innings, then won the next two games at Fenway Park.
Three years later, Moore shot his wife and killed himself, and
lingering memories were cited as part of the cause. Autry died four
years ago, after The Walt Disney Co. took control of the team, but
his memory lives on for the players and fans.
"We're not looking past tomorrow's game,'' Scioscia said. "Our
tunnel vision is for tomorrow.''
Game notes
Eight of the previous 10 teams to takes 3-1 ALCS leads won
the pennant. The other exception was when Kansas City beat Toronto
in 1985. ... California Gov. Gray Davis sat with Disney CEO Michael
Eisner. Actor John Travolta also watched from a box. ... Lackey and
Radke needed just 136 combined pitches to get through 6½ innings.
... Former Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda was at the game to support
Scioscia, a former Los Angeles player. ... Corey Koskie struck out
in six straight ABs, an ALCS record and one short of Cesar
Geronimo's LCS record, before popping out.

"[Recep Tayyip] Erdoğan's way" of executing politics has become a case study per se.
His domination of the domestic discourse and agenda increases continuously and inevitably because he continues to be unchallenged, the opposition leaders nothing more than political midgets.
But what baffles foreign and national observers alike is the manner of his conduct: His shows of shouting and angry lecturing on every possible issue -- which might soon extend to proposing menus for households (!) -- raise concerns about a shift towards an "iron fist rule."
He has not hesitated to touch on the areas of aesthetics, the law, architecture, medicine and what not. Each and every time he has done so, he has badly stirred up emotions, causing either confusion, disappointment or downright alienation and anger.
In the case of suggesting a ban on abortion, he faced an outcry from women from all flanks of politics, and when coldly announcing his intention to reintroduce the death penalty, large swaths of politicians from Europe hit the roof.
Now, once more, Erdoğan has succeeded in engaging the public about a TV series on Ottoman Sultan Süleyman the Magnificent. He raised two points about the show: It was vilifying the country's "ancestors" and its "glorious past" and he expected the judiciary "to do what is required."
Surely, it is unnecessary to do what he perhaps wants all of us to do. By bringing attention to the subject and diverting it away from other vital issues, his open attack on cultural diversity and freedom of artistic expression must be seen for what it is: a new form of exercising tutelage.
Yesterday, he raised the curtain over a new area by declaring that the parliamentary immunities for 10 pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) deputies -- accused of links to the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) after being seen embracing and kissing its armed militants on a highway near Van -- would be lifted.
If so, we are again pulled into the midst of high tension.
What, really, is Erdoğan up to? This is somewhat puzzling, and not that simple, for us common mortals. It serves to increase domestic tensions. It also boggles minds elsewhere on both sides of the Atlantic and across the Mediterranean.
There is obviously something in his constant "rhetoric of fury" and his now sharply visible "face without any smile" which results in unpredictability, singling Turkey out in politics and diplomacy as "not to be entirely trusted."
One way of seeing his pattern is utterly simple: Erdoğan is dragging the country into a swamp of authoritarian rule, with an obsessive fixation on an overpowered presidency. The longer he is unchallenged, the quicker the process will be. He is simple-minded, this camp says, not at all calculating nor far-sighted -- he meets things head on.
But, in a broader picture, it does not quite cut it. To others, like myself, his pattern is complex, filled with "the devil is in the details." Erdoğan has chosen a delicate path. He moves with his two legs, separate, on parallel tracks: While he maintains a high-decibel, "threatening" approach to keep his electorate and grass roots close, his real deeds take place, albeit in ever slower motion, and in a narrower scope, by advancing reforms.
Two examples illustrate this. Yes, he argued for the death penalty, but also hinted at a new round of secret talks with PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan and offered some form of amnesty for the PKK "commanders" to move to remote countries. He has also moved ahead with Kurdish in courtrooms and public institutions. While he engaged the public on the TV series, the Ministry of Education lifted an age-old practice of students wearing obligatory uniforms in public schools. He seems to be "covering up" his concrete steps with his rhetoric, keeping the opposition off guard or ineffective. If true, this is clever.
Clever, but dangerous. Erdoğan's "razor's edge" tactical approach is built on his obsession with the opinion polls presented to him frequently, mainly on social issues. He adjusts his patterns to appease people known for their deep conservatism. As Bekir Ağırdır, the director of independent pollster KONDA, put it, Erdoğan rules Turkey through opinion polls -- a very risky way. He is there on the top not to reaffirm the status quo but to persuade the electorate to change it. It can, and will, backfire.

BGSU among 18 U.S. institutions chosen to further programs in ethics, integrity
BGSU is among 18 institutions chosen by the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) to participate in the Core Commitments Leadership Consortium, the organization announced Jan. 18.
These schools will lead the first phase of a national initiative, Core Commitments: Educating Students for Personal and Social Responsibility. The initiative seeks to embed personal and social responsibility objectives pervasively across the institution as key educational outcomes for students, and to measure the impact of campus efforts to foster such learning.
The other 17 institutions chosen to participate in Core Commitments include Miami University and: Babson College, Mass.; California State University-Northridge; Concordia College, Minn.; Michigan State University; Middlesex Community College, Mass.; Oakland Community College, Mich.; Rollins College, Fla.; Saint Mary's College of California; St. Lawrence University, N.Y.; Tulane University, La.; U.S. Air Force Academy, Colo.; University of Alabama-Birmingham; University of Central Florida; University of the Pacific, Calif.; Wagner College, N.Y., and Winthrop University, S.C.
The 18 participating institutions were selected both on the basis of work already accomplished in the spirit of Core Commitments and on an articulated plan to deepen and extend that work on campus. They are each working to implement in their own ways one of the key recommendations articulated in AAC&U's recent report from its initiative, Liberal Education and America's Promise. The report, College Learning for the New Global Century, recommends in part that every college or university "foster civic, intercultural and ethical learning" and "emphasize personal and social responsibility" for all students and in every field of study.
BGSU's BGeXperience, a first-year values-exploration program, was cited in the report as one of the programs nationwide that is implementing a new set of principles of excellence in education.
"Being selected to participate in the AAC&U's Core Commitments initiative reflects well on the many BGSU faculty members who have been willing to undertake the challenging task of teaching critical thinking about values across the curriculum," commented Dr. Donald Nieman, dean of the College of Arts & Sciences. "Not only is recognition from such an influential organization as AAC&U very gratifying, but the grant will help us build on past successes and extend our focus on values and civic responsibility beyond the first year."
The 18 consortium members will receive a $25,000 award and commit $25,000 in institutional matching funds over two years to significantly advance new models that provide students with purposeful and progressively challenging educational experiences. They will also administer a new Personal and Social Responsibility Institutional Inventory to students, faculty, student affairs administrators and academic administrators. The results will be used to inform ongoing efforts. Future events planned for the initiative include institutes and workshops, campus dialogues and symposia.
In addition to BGeXperience, BGSU offers other programs that were included in the report's recommendations for higher-education practices, such as service- and community-based learning, learning communities and undergraduate research.
"The faculty, staff and administration at BGSU have worked together for several years to build the BGeXperience program, as well as other innovative approaches to undergraduate education," added Dr. Mark Gromko, interim provost. "Often, people so close to a big effort such as this do not fully appreciate the size or significance of their accomplishments. Here, AAC&U has taken a look from a national perspective. From that vantage point, our accomplishments are clear and our progress stands out among institutions of higher education in the United States."
"The selected colleges and universities are already promising leaders in encouraging and incorporating personal and social responsibility into the undergraduate curriculum," said AAC&U President Carol Geary Schneider. "Too often there is a disconnect between student life on campus and students' academic studies, isolating values, ethics and civic responsibilities from what is learned in the classroom. Core Commitments and the Leadership Consortium will strive to create an encompassing vision of how to integrate these vital principles into the core of the undergraduate experience for all students."
Project Director Caryn McTighe Musil, senior vice president at AAC&U, explains that to focus the work that will happen on campuses, AAC&U has identified five key dimensions of personal and social responsibility that form the core of the initiative:
• Striving for excellence: developing a strong work ethic and consciously doing one's very best in all aspects of college;
• Cultivating personal and academic integrity: recognizing and acting on a sense of honor ranging from honesty in relationships to principled engagement with a formal academic honors code;
• Contributing to a larger community: recognizing and acting on one's responsibility to the educational community (the classroom and campus life), the local community and the wider society, both national and global;
• Taking seriously the perspectives of others: recognizing and acting on the obligation to inform one's own judgment; engaging diverse and competing perspectives as a resource for learning, for citizenship, and for work;
• Developing competence in ethical and moral reasoning: developing ethical and moral reasoning in ways that incorporate the other four responsibilities; using such reasoning in learning and in life.
Core Commitments: Educating Students for Personal and Social Responsibility is supported by a grant from the John Templeton Foundation.

The median rent in SF is now $3,100. Desperate times...
EDITOR'S NOTES Everybody's talking about the new data on the price of housing in San Francisco, which is in part because everybody talks about the price of housing in San Francisco anyway and in part because the figures are just so alarming. The figures show that the median rent in San Francisco is $3,100 a month — and while it's hard to know exactly what that means, since some three-bedroom and larger units are in the mix, most San Francisco rentals are smaller, and I'm hearing tell of people paying more than $2,000 for a studio.Read more »
You look at numbers like this and you go: Whoa. The rent really, really is too damn high. Median rent in San Francisco is now over $3,000 a month. WHo can pay that? Seriously.Read more »
At noon Dec. 19, a group of about 50 housing activists led by the Housing Rights Committee gathered at 18th and Castro, next to the giant Shopping Season Tree, to discuss the wave of evictions tenants are facing at the end of 2012. Tommi Avicolli Mecca held up a list of 26 buildings that are currently being clear of tenants under the Ellis Act, a state law that allows landlords to evict all their tenants and sell the property as a single-family home or tenancies in common. With him was a long line of tenants who are facing holiday homelessness thanks to landlord greed.Read more »
The model is pretty well established, and has proven exceptionally lucrative for big US corporations like Bechtel and big US banks -- and has been an utter disaster for dozens of developing countries: US banks loan money to countries that need infrastructure development -- and that money comes right back to US corporations that charge phenomenal prices to build roads, dams, mining operations, whatever, with a nice cut off the top to whatever powerful people need to be bribed (all tax-deductable, of course).

San Francisco is giving Twitter tax rebates to help grow a business that reduces our communications to 140 characters or less, and now the city's Board of Supervisors has approved the creation of extra-small apartments for the Twitter drones who toil long hours in the company's new mid-Market headquarters, along with their brethren at other tech companies, the target audience for these tiny living spaces.Read more »
Housing and business tax propositions don't solve the city's problems, but both sides say they're the best we can expect
San Franciscans are poised to vote this November on two important, complicated, and interdependent ballot measures — one a sweeping overhaul of the city's business tax, the other creating an Affordable Housing Trust Fund that relies on the first measure's steep increase in business license fees — that were the products of intense backroom negotiations over the last six months.Read more »

My old friend Sue Hestor stopped by my house June 24 to ask if any of my neighbors might want to sign the referendum petition on 8 Washington. She was carrying a clipboard with a document the size of a phone book attached to it. Almost 600 pages, neatly bound.
I flipped through it. Lots and lots of background documents on the project, nothing anyone's ever going to read. But thanks to some slick moves by the developer, Simon Snellgrove, supported by his allies on the Board of Supervisors, the referendum petition has to have all of that material attached.Read more »
The fall ballot's going to be crowded -- and one of the issues that may face a vote is the future of the 8 Washington condo complex, the waterfront multi-zillionaire housing that the city doesn't need.Read more »
I guess it's really, really important for San Francisco to build more housing for the very rich because there's just such a profound need for it. In fact, the demand for million-dollar condos is so high, and the supply so tight, that the folks at Rincon Tower (which is hideous) are bringing in celebrities to try to sell the last few units.Read more »

I've found that industries that need a quick turnaround often tend toward "scripting" languages (like perl) around other core languages and/or database backends. Jobs that I've interviewed for in the past (>1year ago) that used PERL include LAMP development(where P = Perl), testing, perl coupled with other-language development and QA.

This review is from: Habey HB-8887D Dual External miniSAS (SFF-8088) to 2 internal mini-SAS (SFF-8087) Adapter
Pros: Works as designed
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: This terrific device allowed me to complete the storage array I couldn't find on the market at the time. I wanted a storage array using 16 2.5" drives (4 x 5.25" bay enclosure with a 4 x 2.5" hot-swappable enclosure in each bay). This gave me a nice clean backplane to attach my storage array to the host with fewer cables than running the numerous SAS 8087 cables.

This review is from: Habey HB-8887D Dual External miniSAS (SFF-8088) to 2 internal mini-SAS (SFF-8087) Adapter
Pros: Shipping was quick.
Cons: It was damaged upon arrival, but the packaging was 100% fine. The product was obviously damaged before it was packaged. The metal shield on one of the SFF-8087 internal connectors was crushed, there is nothing to indicate that this happened during shipping. A Habey representative agreed to cover the return shipping since it was damaged before it left the factory. After he said he would email me a prepaid shipping label he vanished. 14 business days and 3 emails later I still haven't received a reply.

The Wearing of the Green: A History of St Patrick's Day
Psychology Press, 2006 - History - 328 pages
The full history of St. Patrick's day is captured here for the first time in The Wearing of the Green.
Illustrated with photos, the book spans the medieval origins, steeped in folklore and myth, through its turbulent and troubled times when it acted as fuel for fierce political argument, and tells the fascinating story of how the celebration of 17th March was transformed from a stuffy dinner for Ireland's elite to one of the world's most public festivals.
Looking at more general Irish traditions and Irish communities throughout the world, Mike Cronin and Daryl AdairĀfollow the history of this widely celebrated event,Āexamining how the day has been exploited both politically and commercially, and they explore the shared heritage of the Irish through the development of this unique patriotic holiday.
Highly informative for students of history, cultural studies and sociology, and an absolute delight for anyone interested in the fascinating and unique culture of Ireland.
