The journal maintains strict ethical standards. Each submitting author must fill in an Author Guarantee Statement at the time of submission. The manuscript cannot be accepted for publication until a duly completed Author Guarantee Statement has been received.
Authors must provide the following information in their Author Guarantee Statement:
1. Originality of submitted research
2. Co-authors' contribution
3. Absence of ghost writing and other misrepresentation
4. Name of the institutional review board or ethics committee who approved the research protocol (for all studies involving even minimal intervention for research purposes or identifiable patient data)
5. Informed consent given by subjects/next-of-kin
6. An individual, completed Conflict of Interest Disclosure Form for each corresponding author and each co-author
7. Disclosure of sources of funding
8. Trial registration
Note: Information on the items 4-8 should also be included in the body of the manuscript.
Download the Author Guarantee Statement form by clicking the 'Instructions & Forms' link under 'Resources' on the Main Menu page or by clicking here. Fill in the form, save it, and upload it along with your manuscript files, selecting the file designation 'Author Statement'. Alternatively, you can print out the form, fill it in, scan it, and upload the scanned document.
EJoN applies the Best Practice Guidelines of Wiley Blackwell, the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) Code of Conduct, as well as the COPE Guidelines.
EJoN applies the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) authorship guidelines. All persons accredited as authors must have made a substantial contribution to the design, data collection and analysis of the research and the drafting of the manuscript and must have reviewed and accepted the contents of the manuscript prior to its submission.
List all authors and their affiliations on the title page. List the people who contributed to the work but did not fulfil the authorship criteria in a section titled 'Acknowledgments'.
For research conducted by a large multi-centre group, identify the individuals who accept direct responsibility for the manuscript.
Originality of work
EJoN undertakes to review only manuscripts not published or submitted elsewhere. Confirm the originality of your manuscript by ticking the appropriate items of the Author Guarantee Statement. We make a special effort to detect plagiarism in our peer review process. We consider as plagiarism the presentation of data or results borrowed from published research as well as the presence of textual sections or figures/images identical to those published elsewhere. All manuscripts are run through the iThenticate plagiarism detection software before final acceptance.
We do not consider as plagiarism the inclusion of data from conference abstracts or posters, results presented at meetings or data drawn from results databases (data without interpretation, discussion, context or conclusions in the form of tables and text).
If the editors have grounds to suspect plagiarism or redundant publication, they will contact the author for an explanation. If no satisfactory explanation is given, they will contact the author's institution or other appropriate authority to establish the facts. If the grounds for suspicion appear well-founded, the editors may publish a retraction or delegate the matter to the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
Trial registration
We only accept clinical trials that have been appropriately registered in one of the publicly accessible trial registers, e.g. www.clinicaltrials.gov or http://isrctn.org.
Research subjects' rights
For research involving human subjects, we expect compliance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki.
Any funding from external sources for the study should be reported.
Disclosure of conflicts of interest
All authors should disclose any interests that might appear to affect their ability to present and interpret data objectively. These include financial (for example patent ownership, stock ownership, consultancies, speaker's fees), personal, political, academic, intellectual, or religious interests relevant to the area of research or discussion.
Informing readers of misconduct
• We publish a retraction when there is evidence of serious misconduct or an error that threatens the integrity of the scientific literature.
• We publish an expression of concern when there are serious suspicions or concerns about the ethical integrity of a publication, or when the investigation is not yet complete, but the editors want the alert the readers about potential misconduct.
• We publish a correction when the text contains an error by either the author or the editorial staff.
• We publish a notice of publication misconduct to show that the author has behaved inappropriately, but the offence is not serious enough to warrant retraction. These cases may include multiple submission, redundant publication, self-plagiarism, reviewer misconduct, dishonesty about authorship, omission of disclosure statements, etc.
European Journal of Neurology does not encourage appeal. If, however, an author presents reasonable grounds for being dissatisfied with an editorial decision, the case is discussed by the associate editor and the editor-in-chief in charge of the manuscript. Based on their consideration, the editors may invite an arbitrating third opinion. The editor-in-chief's judgment after this process is final.
For each manuscript submission:
1) Author Guarantee Statement. You can download the Author Guarantee Statement form on the journal's homepage here, or by clicking the 'Instructions & Forms' link under 'Resources' on the Main Menu page of Manuscript Central. This form should be filled in and signed by the primary author of the manuscript.
2) ICMJE Form for Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest. You can download the form at here, or on the journal's homepage. This form should be filled in by each co-author separately. If you have already filled in the form for submission to another journal and the contents are up-to-date, you can use that form.
-Provide this information in the body of the manuscript
In your Methods section:
• give the full name of the institutional review board or ethics committee that approved your research protocol. If no ethics board was needed, explain why it was not needed.
• indicate that the subjects or their next-on-kin gave informed consent for participation.
• if you submit personal information or identifiable images, indicate that you had the person's permission for it.
• if your study is a registered trial, give the name of trial register.
At the end of the main text:
• list the people who contributed to the work but did not fulfil the authorship criteria under 'Acknowledgments'. Such people include, for instance, technicians, statisticians and translators.
• if you had funding for any kind for your study, indicate the source under 'Funding'. Also indicate if you had no funding.
• if you reported conflicting interests on the ICMJE Form for Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest, include a short disclosure statement at the end of your manuscript text file. If you have no conflicts to disclose, indicate that as 'None'.
Provide your manuscripts with a title page, a structured abstract (Background, Methods, Results, Conclusions) of up to 250 words, an appropriate Introduction, a Methods/Patients section, Results and Discussion. Letters to the Editor need not be formally structured and do not have an abstract.
Our peer review is not blinded. Each manuscript should have a title page with the following information:
• title of the manuscript
• author's (authors') full name (first name, middle initial, last name) and degree
• full address of the institution(s) where the work was carried out
• telephone, fax and e-mail data of the corresponding author for correspondence, proofs and reprint requests.
• total word count of the manuscript including title page, references, legends and structured abstract
• running title
• up to eight keywords
• a Disclosure of Conflict of Interest statement summarising the information from each author. This information will be included as a subsection of the published article. Please see here for an example. This is required along with a COI form for each author, as stated above
Express measurements in SI or older conventional units. Except for units of measurement, use standard abbreviations and spell them out on first use. Use generic drug names, but add brand names in parentheses if necessary.
Format your files double-spaced and use automatic word-wrap with no hard returns within paragraphs and no hyphenation. Be consistent about typing, e.g. distinguish between '1' (one) and 'l' (lower-case L) and '0' (zero) and 'O' (capital O), etc.
Type in-line equations as text. Do not use graphics programs or equation editors. Equations are re-keyed by our typesetter.
Provide each table with a title and, if necessary, a short legend. Identify footnotes (which should be kept to a minimum and written in bold print) by superscripts, a, b, c, etc. Do not use table editors or graphics software to create tables.
Submit your figures as EPS, TIFF or PDF files. Use 300 dpi resolution for photographic images and 600 dpi resolution for line art.
After reduction to fit across one or two columns or two-thirds width (80mm, 169mm or 110mm respectively) as required, all lettering in electronic artwork should be clear and easy to read, i.e. no labels should be too large or too small. Do not use tints, unless absolutely necessary. If they are essential to the understanding of the figure, try to make them coarse.
Full details of the submission of artwork are available here.
Authors normally need to pay the cost of reproducing illustrations in print. Contact the publishers for an estimate of this cost. If there is colour artwork in your manuscript when it is accepted for publication, Wiley Blackwell will require you to complete and return a colour work agreement (CWA) form before your paper can be published. This form can be downloaded as a PDF file from here.
If you would like to have your figures printed in colour, please complete and sign the CWA form and post or courier it to:
Customer Services (OPI)
John Wiley & Sons Ltd, European Distribution Centre
New Era Estate
Oldlands Way
Bognor Regis
West Sussex PO22 9NQ

The original copy of your CWA is required in compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.
If you are not able to cover the costs of reproducing colour figures in the printed version of the journal, it is possible to have colour figures reproduced in colour for free in the online version of the article, while they will still appear in black and white in the print version. Only one version of the figure should be supplied in colour, and the figures should be suitable for reproduction in both colour and black and white. Provide two figure legends: one for the B&W figure and another for the colour version. Indicate clearly to which figure the legend refers.
Should you simply require your figures to be in colour online (free of charge), or If you have any problems with downloading the CWA or illustrations in general, please contact the Production Editor at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Use Vancouver referencing. Number references consecutively in the order they appear in the text using Arabic numerals enclosed in square brackets on the line (not superscript). Use [1-4] instead of [1,2,3,4]. References cited only in tables or figures should be numbered in the sequence established by the particular table's/figure's position in the text.
All references (including those in press) should be listed at the end of the text in the order they are quoted. Abstracts published in peer-reviewed journals may be quoted as references. Unpublished observations, personal communications and abstracts published in conference proceedings should be quoted in parentheses within the text of the manuscript. Information from manuscripts submitted but not yet accepted should be cited in the text as 'unpublished observations'.
Internet sites may be quoted as references by listing them in the normal way in the text (using Arabic numerals) and in the References section. Please include the date accessed in parentheses.
List all authors unless there are more than six, in which case give the first three followed by 'et al.'. Spell out the names of all journals in full and give the first and last numbers in full, not just the first.

Early View
The EJoN is covered by Wiley Blackwell's Early View service. Early View articles are complete full-text articles published online in advance of their publication in a printed issue. Early View articles are complete and final. They have been fully reviewed, revised and edited for publication, and the authors final corrections have been incorporated. Because they are in final form, no changes can be made to the manuscript after online publication.
Early View articles cannot be cited in the traditional way. They are therefore given a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which is a string of characters. The DOI allows the article to be cited and tracked before it is allocated to an issue. After print publication, the DOI remains valid and can continue to be used to cite and access the article. For more information about DOIs, visit this website.

Greenville police now say they are offering a reward for the return of video memories of a baby who later died of SIDS.
The $1,000 reward will be offered through Crime Stoppers. Corporal Kip Gaskins says they only want the tape back.
Gaskins says whoever has the tape can just send it in to Pitt-Greenville Crimestoppers at P.O. Box 7207, Greenville, NC 27835.
They say the people would need to include a name with the tape, and it can fictitious, so when they call Crimestoppers at (252) 758-7777, they can give the officer that name in order to get the reward money.
The Greenville family lost their four month old son to sudden infant death syndrome this past summer. Then on Friday they suffered another devastating loss, after their home was broken into and someone stole their precious memories of their son.
Lindsey Jones and her husband Jeremy came home to find the backdoor of their Greenville home kicked in. The thief stole their X-Box, Wii gaming system, and jewelry...all items that can be replaced. But they also took a camcorder that still had the video inside of the day their son Ayden came home from the hospital.
Lindsey says, "Memories can't be replaced--things can. Things that were taken, can be replaced but the memory of that is gone now, we have in our minds, but the tangible proof of it is gone."
Jones says she hopes for a Christmas miracle and that whoever has the video can return it -- with no need for names or any questions asked.

Writing is a passion for Hasina. She expresses this passion as a journalist and poet. Her work has appeared in numerous English-language publications throughout India and abroad. In addition, Hasina has served as an editor for several international publications.
Hasina's work as a journalist began in 1993. As a freelance journalist and columnist, she has contributed regularly to many local, regional, national, and international publications. Her articles have been published in multiple newspapers including The Meghalaya Guardian, The Shillong Times, North East Times, and Newsline. She has also contributed articles to several magazines and journals such as Prime Time, Eastern Panorama, and The North East Sun. In addition, since 2001, she has contributed to The W.A.S.H. Rag – Women Against Sexual Harassment, a U.S.-based newsletter. Her earlier writing included a wide range of topics, such as fashion, beauty, health, art, and culture. In recent years, her writing has been focused more on social development issues and human rights, especially child rights, women's rights, and human trafficking, which has been published in several books.
Alongside her love of journalism, Hasina has expressed her passion for writing through her poetry. "Through poetry I trail the path of my unconscious mind, living the thoughts of mind which generally get lost in the day-to-day hectic life," says Hasina. She has published three collections of poems – The Woman in Me (1997), Beyond the Veil (2001), and Unknown Destination (2003). Beyond the Veil was published in English and also translated into French.
In recent years, Hasina has devoted herself to carrying out her social mission through Impulse and other social development work. She has made the difficult decision of putting her writing aside to be able to focus on her work. However, in the future, Hasina hopes to be able to return to her poetry and journalism, and perhaps one day combine it with her ongoing work as a social developer by writing about issues such as human trafficking and human rights.
Writing Poetry Hasina's love of poetry began during her teenage years during which time she began submitting her poems to school journals and college magazines. In 1994, she received Honourable Mention in the All India Poetry Contest held by The Quest, a biannual journal of Indian writing in English. From 1994 to 2001, Hasina contributed regularly to The Quest and affiliated poetry anthologies. In 1995, her poetry first reached international readers when six of her poems were published in a U.S.-based poetry journal. Since then, she has continued to publish internationally, including regular contributions from 1997-2001 in the journal, Poet, an international monthly poetry journal.
In 1995, as her poetry made its debut in international publications, Hasina was recognized by prominent Indian novelist and journalist Khushwant Singh as a promising young poet of Meghalaya. Singh commented, "She is more concerned with human emotions than with the landscape or revolution." Hasina's earlier works of poetry focused on human emotions and personal experiences, but over the years her poetry has gradually shifted to other topics such as world peace and travel.
In 2000, she was invited and sponsored to be part of the 2nd World Congress of Poets for Poetry Research and Recitation held in Yanji, China and Seoul, Korea. In Yanji, she presented her poem, "Give Peace a Chance" and short story, "Once Upon a Story."
When the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed the year 2000 as the 'International Year for the Culture of Peace,' Hasina commemorated this declaration with her organization Impulse by hosting a poetry contest. In collaboration with Writers' Forum – Ranchi, the contest brought together poets of diverse backgrounds, ranging from young students to international writers, who expressed their longing for peace. Winning submissions were compiled and published as Explore World Peace Mission: An Anthology of World Poems, which was distributed internationally. Hasina served as the editor for the publication.
Celebrating Women's Month 2008 through Poetry
To help commemorate International Women's Day and Women's Month in March 2008, Hasina had the pleasure of hosting a poetry gathering in Shillong through Impulse. Over a dozen local female poets, including student poets and accomplished writers, gathered to share their poetry that related to women's issues. In addition, through a collective effort to celebrate womanhood, the poetesses wrote a poem, titled "Women." Hasina hopes to create a collection of poems, which includes contributions from each of these local poets that attended this event
Women Even in the world amidst the differences If feels so special to be a woman Liberation from duality, transformation in your embrace Oh Woman! Born to lead is your conviction And to play the role to perfection Untiringly, unflinchingly you strive in your ambition Oh! Creature so divine Inspires, amazes every mankind Oh Woman! The womb of life A Mother, a daughter, a friend rolled into one; Sa re ga ma… A bloom, a breath, a ripple… fragments of a whole A perennial pulse within you To make this world a better resort For the children of the future Your strength is a gift from God You are God's most beautiful Creation.

Thank you for this poem.A woman is actually a great asset,in her absence the world would not be what it is! I'm looking forward to reading more of such beautiful verses.
Leah Auma.

No. 1 Oregon barely stays perfect, holds off Cal
BERKELEY, Calif. Oregon's sturdy defense loved the chance to demonstrate that the Ducks' offense isn't the only star of this show.
Jeff Maehl caught a 29-yard pass for the Ducks' only offensive touchdown, and No. 1 Oregon caught a huge break on an illegal motion penalty against California's kicker during a 15-13 victory on Saturday night, keeping the Ducks on course for the BCS title game.
Cliff Harris returned a punt 64 yards for the only touchdown in the first half for the Ducks (10-0, 7-0 Pac-10), who undeniably wobbled on the road to a shot at the national championship. Oregon's offense managed a season-low 317 yards and went scoreless in two quarters - yet the defense largely shut down Cal after its opening drive.
Those defensive players were just as surprised as everybody else in Strawberry Canyon when the normally purring Oregon offense sputtered and stalled. The Ducks had played just three scoreless quarters all season long until Cal shut them out in the first and fourth.
"I wasn't expecting that, especially in the second half," Oregon linebacker Casey Matthews said. "It feels really good to come through for the offense this time. We did pretty good, but we should do that every week, no matter what the offense does."
Oregon also got a bit of luck: Early in the fourth quarter, Cal kicker Giorgio Tavecchio erased his own 24-yard field goal, which would have put the Golden Bears ahead by one, by taking a stutter step forward before the snap. The junior then missed a 29-yard try on the next play.
"There's no excuse for that," Cal coach Jeff Tedford said. "We kick field goals every day. There's no excuse for jumping the gun like that. It's poise under pressure, and we didn't have it right there."
Oregon kicker Rob Beard also missed two field goals after going 8 for 8.
Darron Thomas passed for 155 yards and led a final drive that chewed up the last 9 1/2 minutes. It was a strange sight to see the high-speed Ducks down shift into super-slow motion, but it worked to perfection: Kenjon Barner and LaMichael James took turns with the ball while Thomas milked the play clock on an 18-play, 65-yard drive.
The Heisman hopeful James rushed for a season-low 91 yards, but Oregon's defense shut out Cal's offense for the final 55 minutes. James left Berkeley leaning on crutches with his left leg in a protective casing, but he played on Oregon's final drive, and the tailback insisted he was fine.
"I pulled my hamstring jumping up and down because we won the game," James joked. "At the end of the season, they aren't going to say, 'How many points did Oregon beat Cal by?' They're just going to see we won."
The Bears held the nation's most prolific scoring team almost 40 points below its average, but couldn't get the Ducks' offense off the field when they most needed a stop.
Cal defensive tackle Derrick Hill forced a fumble and recovered it in the end zone for the Bears (5-5, 3-4), who lost at home for the first time all season - but only after putting a mighty scare into their first top-ranked opponent in five years.
"It's very hurtful that we let it slip away," Hill said. "There's no consolation, because you're left with an L."
Shane Vereen rushed for 105 yards and scored a touchdown on Cal's opening drive. Brock Mansion went 10 for 27 for 69 yards in his second career start.
Oregon, which hadn't won by fewer than 11 points all season, will find out Sunday how its struggles will affect its position in the ranking and BCS standings, where the Ducks lead fellow unbeatens Auburn, TCU and Boise State. Most likely, the Ducks will still control their own destiny in the national championship race.

Oh you can't blame them for not knowing the exact number of Pokemon. Even to this day, the numbers will keep on increasing until the creators run out of ideas. Oh how I miss the movies back then. They were as awesome as their theme songs. Haha sorry going off topic. They stated 150 since the audience weren't going to be satisfied without being given an exact number. If Professor Oak said to use the Pokedex to find over 1000 Pokemon and Ash couldn't find that many, you expect everyone to be angry. Nothing's perfect even movie and anime story lines are flawed unless you want them to remake them but that would ruin its classicness.

Very good picture!
Greetings from Hungary, Zoltan
This crossing no longer exists, in fact neither do the rails. This site now represents one of the stops on the former railway line between St Ives and Cambridge which is now a Guided Bus Route. There are a number of 'stations' along this route, and on some designated services the bus is able to leave the Guided Bus route and freely redirect on normal roads. Some routes can go to the extreme lengths, as far as Huntingdon in the north to Addenbrookes to the south. The service is well thought of and is considerably used. Tickets may be purchased from machines at the stations, and some fares may be paid direct to the driver. Photographs will be posted on this medium shortly.
Yes,this was the old guardroom which also doubled as where the weighbridge was operated.If you look at the photo you can see the road surface is a different colour-this is because the tarmac is only an inch thick over the steel weighbridge.Curiously,i worked with a chap who spent many months doing extensive welding for the RAF when they were putting the Bloodhounds into the site.
Not a total write-off I understand. in 2012 my grandson found a 'guided bus' running along the route of the former railway line between Cambridge and St Ives, taking just 20 minutes!
'The Busway' from St Ives to Cambridge; a converted former railway.
'The busway' between St Ives and Cambridge. Guided buses do the journey in about twenty minutes.
I'm sorry, only from 0°01'00"W to 0°00'59"E coordinates. Happy New Year!
I really like these relics of the old railway.
Hallo 2c,
sehr schönes Foto!!! LIKE!!!
Viele Grüße aus GER. Gebhardt

Shedding advertising and distribution arms, while doubling down on digital conversions power the digital cinema company to 55.6% revenue growth
Shedding its advertising and physical distribution arms and doubling down on digital theater installations is paying off for Cinedigm.
The digital cinema company produced a strong second quarter, with revenue surging 55.6 percent to $23.5 million and losses shrinking to more manageable levels.
In fact, Cinedigm chairman and CEO Chris McGurk confirmed to TheWrap that it was the best quarter in the company's history.
Net losses shrank to $228,000, or 3 cents a share, from $10.8 million or 29 cents a share in the year ago period.
The report comes some 10 months after McGurk took over as the company's chief and started to streamline the company.
Central to the overhaul is a push into distributing alternative content to theater owners such as the Sarah Palin documentary "Undefeated," rock concerts and Ultimate Fighting Championship events.
"Clearly, the success of Cinedigm's business transformation has now begun to show in our record financial results and business momentum," McGurk said.
McGurk said that the company has built a "war chest" of $20 million that it may use to buy a software company or snap up other sources of alternative content.
The nest egg was generated from the sales of Cinedigm's pre-show advertising and physical delivery businesses, as well as a $7 million private placement of common equity that closed in June.

So here, for the solo, there is no problem, makes the sound good, no break in the dialogues etc. It was at the co-op that it gets stuck. First, the ambient sounds are much too strong. When the robot moves, we swear an evil giant march 2 cm from my ears.

I Pottery Barn-ified my (ugly) ceramic pumpkins into gorgeous silver ones! I love how they turned out!
SOOOO easy to do…literally minutes and it made a huge transformation. I love my two shiny silver pumpkins sitting on my mantle.
I used Krylon's Premium Silver Foil Metallic spray paint. I was sure I would have to use a primer…but nope!…it went on amazingly!
I placed the pumpkins in a box while spraying…just a little tip.
So go grab any ceramic pumpkin (the ugliest one you can find) and spray it gorgeous silver…it will look like you bought it at Pottery Barn.

Eric watched as Mark tried to keep control over Able, but the bug type didn't bother to listen. So... right there was where the disconnect happened, the snap that would make Able go off on her own, interesting. It didn't take much for her to decide that whatever she had planned was better, but he would see how long she would stay like that. Mark had said before that she would scream at him, he wanted to see how far he would have to take her before she would succumb to anger issues.
"Adrian, maneuver one." Eric state calmly. The Ninjask obeyed as if let loose another Flash to blind Able as she was coming right at him and moved to the left a few inches to dodge the attack. If everything went according to plan Able would just keep flying right past him. Adrian at the moment just stared at the female, not letting his eyes off of her as he still refused to reply to her taunts.

In a new book called "The Protest Psychosis: How Schizophrenia became a Black Disease," psychiatrist and cultural critic Jonathan Metzl draws on a variety of sources — patient records, psychiatric studies, racialized drug advertisements, and popular metaphors for madness — to contend that schizophrenia transformed from being a mostly white, middle-class affliction in the 1950s, to one that identified with blackness, volatility, and civil strife at the height of the Civil Rights movement.
The deranged black figure literally shakes his fist at the assumed physician viewer, while in the background a burning, urban landscape appears to directly reference the type of civil strive that alarmed many in the "establishment" at that time. The ad compels psychiatrists to conflate black anger as a form of threatening psychosis and mental illness. Indeed the ad seems to play off presumed fears of assaultive and belligerent black men.
As the urban background suggests, this fear extended beyond individual safety to social unrest. In a 1969 essay titled "The Protest Psychosis," after which Metzl's book is named, psychiatrists postulated that the growing racial disharmony in the US at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, reflected a new manifestation of psychotic behaviors and delusions afflicting America's black lower class. Accordingly, "paranoid delusions that one is being constantly victimized" drew some men to fixate on misguided ventures to overthrow the establishment. Luckily, pharmaceutical companies proposed that chemical interventions could directly pacify the masculinzed, black threat depicted in advertisements like the above. "Assaultive and belligerent?" it asks. "Cooperation often begins with Haldol."
Moreover, ads for Thorazine and Stelazine during this period often conjured up images of the "unruly" and "primitive" precisely at a time when the demographic composition of this diagnosis was dramatically shifting from a mostly white clientele, to a group of predominately black, confined, mental patients. It is telling that within this context, the makers of Thorazine would choose to portray the drug's supposed specificity to schizophrenia in their advertisements by displaying a variety of war staffs, walking sticks, and other phallic artifacts from African descent.
Notably, these claims of superiority and medical efficacy drew from a particular set of pejorative ideas of the "primitive" that were already well established within some sectors of psychiatry that equated mental illness with primitive, animalistic and regressive impulses. As Metzl contends in his book:
…pharmaceutical advertisements shamelessly called on these long-held racist tropes to promote the message that social "problems" raised by angry black men could be treated at the clinical level, with antipsychotic medications.
While schizophrenia is certainly a real, frightening, debilitating disease, Metzl reminds us that cultural assumptions of the "other" shape how psychiatry understands and treats the condition.
For more with Metzl, listen to an interview at the New Books Network.

The Chinese authorities are forcibly evicting 1.5 million people from their homes in Beijing without compensating them to make way for the Olympics leaving many displaced former residents homeless, the Centre on Housing Rights and Evictions revealed this week.
According to the Geneva based rights group's field research, based on Chinese government statements and documents, by April 2007, at least 1.25 million people have already been displaced as a result of urban development linked to the Olympic Games, and unknown numbers of these people were forcibly evicted.
COHRE reported that at least a further 250,000 people are expected to be displaced in the final year before the Olympic Games, resulting in a total of 1.5 million people being displaced in Beijing by August 2008 due to Olympics related development.
Unconscionable. And I find the cartoon above to be sadly fitting.
But dollars to donuts, I bet we're going to participate in 2008. We shouldn't, but I bet we will.

At just about every stage of the education system there is one thing that every teacher wants to encourage and have students engage in—teamwork. Not on every individual assignment of course (since that would be cheating), but on certain group based tasks. The idea was to combine the separate expertise of individuals in hopes of completing a better final product.
Little did we know that the same concept would be something we could apply to business dealings like those in the self storage industry.
The idea is simple. By combining forces with another company it becomes easier to do so many things. Rather than be the sole decider for important matters they can be discussed. Chances are that among the decision makers involved there will be someone with a wealth of knowledge in regards to whatever the 'issue' of the day is making it easier to solve.
Having a partner also makes it easier to expand since you have the combined resources of all alliance members to draw from. US Storage Centers and Iron Gate Storage understand this and partnered to create Westport NW Management, LLC.
"I'm excited about this new partnership and the professionalism and experience that US Storage Centers adds to this venture," said Glen Aronson, President and CEO of Iron Gate Properties. "In addition to our newest property in development, we have an acquisition pipeline filled for 2014 and 2015."
The workload between the two partners is going to be handled accordingly—the good people with Iron Gate Properties are going to be working on identifying new facilities for acquisition while U.S. Storage Centers will be in charge of managing the facilities.
"Combining the success, experience and resources of US Storage Centers with one of the best regional operators in the Northwest will produce exciting results," said Charles Byerly, President and CEO at US Storage Centers. "….Our goals for the future of self-storage in the Pacific Northwest were in alignment from the beginning, and the strengths of both companies complement each other in a way that will advance our vision."
Teaming up to manage and buy facilities is not the only way self storage companies get to engage in teamwork. Sometimes they do it in order to complement a facility and the service that it already provides. For example, in November 2012 Extra Space Storage announced a partnership with Budget Truck Rental.
"Extra Space Storage is excited to partner with a leader in the transportation industry," said James Overturf, chief marketing officer of Extra Space Storage. "Our customers are typically facing a stressful life transition and by providing a consolidated solution, we hope to make the entire process easier."

I think the more likely explanation is less that Monklish and Suprefan are one in the same, and more that Monklish sees Suprefan as some sort of source of inside knowledge. Not too shocking that the Monklish list came out after the lineup pool lists were posted here.
Ok.... on a different topic than who-gives-a-fuck-lish
I know a lot's always made about Australian festivals in the spring etc etc but this one seems interesting because it's already got a few names that have kicked around rumors (Japandroids, Divine Fits, Alt - J) and quite a few acts that seem all too likely to show up at our fest in the desert (Bat for Lashes, Jessie Ware, Yeasayer, Nicolas Jaar, Cloud Nothings)... Maybe even some reaching-hopefuls like Julia Holter, Shlohmo, Holy Other, El-P, The Men, etc.
Just some food for thought ya know...
edit: it's also a traveling festival, that's the Perth lineup and the one closest to Chella (February 9th). Some of the other lineups have other hopefuls too (Of Monsters and Men, Nite Jewel).

Are you ready for shoes made of bread…shoes that can make you dance…feather shoes that tickle your feet until you can't stop laughing?
The Elves and The Shoemaker, from the unswervingly energetic Stuff and Nonsense Theatre Company (The Enormous Turnip, Little Red Hen and 3 Little Pigs) is here with puppets, music, comedy and tonnes of bonkers shoes!
Sat in his kitchen workshop, Sam Lacey makes terrible shoes and tries to sell them online. They are so bad that no-one really wants them. Then one night, two tiny visitors climb in through the window and start cutting and stitching and gluing and Sam's life is never quite the same again!
A shoe suitable for age 3 - 7 year olds and their grown ups.

Footnote 4-I: Dr. Tiedeman favors a "nutrition-like" theory of mental health which he says is rudimentary but evolving. He comments:
Throughout his life man engages in a process of "becoming." In "becoming," man searches for a station in life that gives meaning to his being. Guidance psychology aims squarely at facilitating this "becoming" of each person. The postures and attitudes a youth adopts toward assimilation, self, and occupation (in the most general sense) control his potential resolution of problems in "becoming" to a marked degree. Schools and colleges employ counselors to help each person achieve resolutions in his quest for meaning in being that are productively oriented. Persons with productive character orientations generally act confidently and accept the consequences of their action without unduly blaming self or others. Persons of productive character orientation also have deeply elaborated self-systems which offer strength for sustaining ego in times of stress.
The primary medium of guidance psychology for facilitating this formation of identity is short-term ego-counseling. This counseling is frequently organized in relation to important points of decision in "becoming," viz:
(I) upon entry into high school; (2) upon transition from school to college or work; (3) upon choice of major in college; and (4) upon transition from college to work or graduate school. Enlightened graduate schools, governments, and industries are gradually realizing that "becoming" is a continual process and are providing professional counseling for their students or employees. It is now recognized that a school counselor at any rate cannot serve his charges adequately if they outnumber him by more than about 250. This ratio probably cannot be exceeded in college without sacrifice in the service. In fact the college years are so much an exercise in "becoming" that the ratio of 250 students to one counselor may well be too high. The useful ratio in industry and government will depend upon how many "problems" an employer will let his employee have. Actually the stew of "becoming" intensifies during one's twenties and thirties as well as near retirement. Society would gain if employers provided enough adequate counseling assistance for people of these kinds. Such services are an im

The Canon EF 20mm f/2.8 USM is a fairly large lens, but also fairly light at just about one pound with lens shade (not supplied with the lens).
Prime lenses (fixed focal length) can be better performers than zooms because they can be optimized for just one focal length. That is, if they are optimized, as opposed to a lackluster design.
The field test on the following page shows that the 20/2.8 delivers murky somewhat better results than the Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II, depending on where in the frame one compares, and the focusing distance.
Performance of this lens is marginal compared to the Zeiss 21mm f/2.8 Distagon, as might be expected, since it costs 1/4 the price.
