Fantasy fan? Listen to more in the Malloreon series, which is the sequel to David Eddings' Belgariad series.
© and (P)2004 Books in Motion. This recording is produced by arrangement with the Ballantine Publishing Group, a division of Random House, Incorporated and David Eddings.
Tell us about yourself!
"Fantastic First Rate Fantasy"
Picked this one up on sale - big fan of all things fantasy from Tolkien to Patrick Rothfuss and I'm not sure how David Eddings slipped under my radar for so long. Thoroughly enjoyed this novel beginning to end. Also the first Cameron Beierle narrated audiobook I've listened too - impressive narration.
"A good beginning to the Second Half of the Story"
It's been a long time since I've read the Guardians of the West but I think I'd say yes to this. It's an easy read and it makes for an easy listen as well. Having the various characters' dialogue come alive is quite nice. The dialogue is probably the best part of Eddings' writing so it really works well as an audio experience.
Well let's be honest - The thing about David Eddings is that one book is pretty much like another. If you've read or listened to the Belgariad well then, here's more of the same. If you've read or listened to his Sparhawk books then here's more of the same - only more young adult than adult (not that that's a bad thing) and more side stuff going on (because the series is 5 books instead of 3).
There comes a point in a book like this where you realize - wow there are a huge number of characters in this book and the reader is doing all of them by himself. He also does a good job of defining accents for each of the various peoples of the world. It's not perfect - in particular the voices of Belgarion and Errand often sound the same to the point of confusion - but it's not a huge problem.
Eddings' fantasy series are, above all else, fun. This is his second seriers with these characters and could more rightly be considered book 6 of 10 instead of 1 of 5, though you could start here if you wanted to. On problem for some could be that at this point in the story some old characters you may love have to fade into the background and some new ones step forward to take their place. I personally miss some of the old characters who are relegated to bit parts, but the new characters Eddings gives us do tend to be far more interesting than what we had in the Belgariad and add a lot in diversity to the cast.
"Good but starts slow"
Good book. I felt the narration was good. The first half of the book was a bit slow but got pretty good as it ended. I understand this was the setup book. If you can make it past the first half you will enjoy the rest of this book and most certainly the series. I like how he puts accents on the different characters depending what country they were from. I would recommend this but give it a chance.
"Equalize Please"
The story and the reading were both excellent. My only complaint is that the recording seemed to put a lot of emphasis on the higher pitched sounds (particularly when the reader read the letter 's'). The contrast was so great that I had to turn the volume up and the treble all the way down in my car not to have my ears hurt a bit by the end of my commute.
"And the fun begings"
The story started slowly but I fell in love with all of the people who inhabit the pages. With each new book you learn more about everyone. By the end of the series you know everyone and they are like old friends. The print version lives happily on my bookshelf.
"slow start but worth it"
This was a slow starter, but the rest of the series makes it worth it, even though it is a long series, and probably could have been shortened by a book, it is a great series. The reader is a good story teller and brings the characters to life. In short, even though some sections get a bit tiresome, the whole is worth it.
"Enjoyed the series very much."
I absolutely loved the story and enjoyed the narrator. Thank you for the audiobooks.
"i love it"
I can never get enough of this read. I really love this book and the book series itself.
"Narrator just wasn't for me..."
Something about the way the narrator spoke just didn't work for me. It seemed he was attempting some sort of accent, or possibly has a real accent with which I am not familiar. Either way, I was unable to continue listening. It grated. I was looking forward to the story but had to turn this one off.
Andrew James Riemer
"Compelling characters, good story"
This is my second foray into Eddings (after completing the Belgariad). His characters are wonderful, and his world is vast and rich. Overall, I enjoyed greatly this first book of the Malloreon. Some of the early chapters and scenes felt a little disjointed at first, but the author was moving the reader rapidly through a series of years. I found a couple of places where there seem to be small gaps in the story, where a character did not do something they were instructed to do, or they made a decision without considering something that should have been obvious given their experiences. Still, as it is only the first part in a series, I'll hold out hope that such matters will be addressed or reconciled as things progress. As seems typical for Eddings, the end of this book is really no true ending, but merely the stage for launching the rest of the series, with the ultimate resolution coming, presumably, only in the final volume. If you enjoy fantasy worlds occupied by rich, multidimensional characters, consider Eddings. If you've never read his works before, I recommend starting with the Belgariad series. If you enjoyed the Belgariad, I believe you'll enjoy the continued adventures of Garion, Pol, and the Old Wolf in the Malloreon.
I am afraid although I love David Eddings and Belgarath this is a book that I will have to read myself. The narrator sounds more like a computerised voice. For me impossible to listen to.
"A well paced fantasy mystery"
An excellent well placed story that unlike some of the Belgariad always feels like it's going somewhere and never stalling.
An absolutely gripping first book of this new series. loved every minute. can't wait to start th next one
"Awful recording."
Somebody sack Cameron Beierle! The man has no clue about intonation, pacing or punctuation. This dreadful recording spoiled the book.
"Brilliant continuation of the saga...."
The story continues from where we left off after the Belgariad, building on the picture of the main characters lives and sowing the seed for this next epic adventure. Enthralling story, engagingly read by Cameron Beierle, throughly enjoyable listening.
"still on song"
Still very very good
a brill story with good narration
"Guardians Of The West by David Eddings"
Garion is sure that the prophecy concerning him has been fulfilled, so when he is called upon to settle conflicts and fights, he feels agrieved, but takes his duties as king of Riva and overlord of the west, seriously. But troubles beset him as his young son is kidnapped as there is another powerful dark enemy on the loose ... David Eddings draws us once more into the world of his epic fantasy, creating thrilling scenarios and suspense-filled reads. Join Garion and his friends in their new quest to rescue the prince Garan and to combat yet more evil.

River City Virginia: A Beginner's Guide to Richmond
The Capital of the Confederacy and home to some of the most beautiful historic buildings around, Richmond, Virginia is famous for its abundant local history and culture. Otherwise known as RVA, or the River City, Richmond also offers a thriving music scene, a vibrant arts district, award-winning dining establishments and trails along the river, which winds its way through the heart of the city.
Richmond is home to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, a three-story museum featuring more than 33,000 works of art spanning 5,000 years of world history. Collections range from Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Fabergé, and the art of South Asia. Travelling exhibits have included photographs of Elvis, the paintings of Picasso and costumes sourced from Hollywood films. Every month, Broad Street lights up with the First Fridays Artwalk, where more than 20 galleries, shops and restaurants host new exhibitions and events that bring the people of the city to the bustling arts district.
While many regard cities such as Nashville or Austin as home to the best music scenes, Richmond is very close to surpassing them. Having started as a strictly punk town, Richmond has since grown to support a thriving music scene with numerous acts in every genre from jazz and folk to indie rock. In recent years, Richmond has produced big names such as Lamb of God, Jason Mraz, No BS Brass Band and Matthew E. White, who have gone on to show the rest of the world what the River City has to offer. Catch up-and-coming acts at venues like The Camel and Strange Matter, while the National is where the big guns grace the stage. There are also some great music festivals held in Richmond every year, including Fall Line Fest, Innsbrook After Hours and Friday Cheers.
For visitors of a culinary inclination, Richmond offers a dining scene like no other. The city has restaurants around every corner and new venues popping up daily. Not content with simple, everyday establishments, restaurant owners in Richmond take pride in perfecting their craft. From the vegetarian options of basement Ipanema Cafe to the locally-sourced foods from The Roosevelt to the wildly popular sushi at Sticky Rice, Richmond has something for every palette. If you're looking for a food town, Richmond should be at the top of your list.

Driving In Korea (Part 2)
Jumping right into this next article about terrible driving, here are some of my personal experiences with driving in the United States and in Korea. I have chosen to drive my vehicle into a ditch on several occasions because if I hadn't done so there was a good chance I would have had a head on collision with a passing car or semi. Where do you think this happened? It was in the United States: both of these incidents happened within five miles of my home.
I was rear ended once when I was making the left turn into my home. A young man, who was the same age as me, was going roughly 80 miles per hour. I heard this screeching sound, but I was extremely tired from work that day. The screeching I heard, I assumed, were the belts on the car approaching me, since it was a later model car. Then BOOM! I was shaken and I broke the glass behind me with my head. I still have a scar to this day, behind my ear. My students always want to know how I received the scar; hopefully my story scares them into being good drivers.
I personally have caused a minor accident in Korea, on a motorcycle. I broke many of the rules of road, and the rules of driving a motorcycle. The first rule I broke I was being in a hurry. You are never supposed to hurry or be rushed when driving a motorcycle. The second rule I broke, was to be extra careful when it is raining, and never violate rules one and two at the same time. The law I broke, I broke because I was in a hurry, and I had decided to cut to the front of the line at a red light. I cut to the front and then as we were turning right, I was too close to a car when he hit his brakes and I rear ended him at a low speed. Luckily the accident only shook my nerves and left a red mark on his bumper. He was not happy, but his passenger was laughing the whole time, so I think out of frustration he just left. Thankfully, no police were called.
I have had a few instances in Korea where a motorist tried to bully me and tried to get around me, or try to get ahead of me. This was scary, no doubt, but I was able to avoid an accident and, more importantly, avoid any injuries. The real key to driving in Korea is being able to stay focused and alert.
The times all of these things happened, I definitely felt it could have been avoided, both in Korea and America.
The fact of the matter is, when you put people in control of something they have done hundreds or thousands of times, they get lazy and overconfident. People forget that we are juts meat bags sitting in a ton of steel hitting other meat bags in their ton of steel.
The Bad: People in every country are terrible drivers. The one thing that unites us all is that we think we are amazing drivers with a gift for avoiding injuries.

Isaac's Mid-Century Silver Lake Perch
House Tour
Name: Isaac Aptaker
Location: Silver Lake; Los Angeles, CA
Size: 1,200 square feet
Years lived in: 2 years; Owned
Aside from the fact that it's oozing with Mid-century charm, Isaac Aptaker's home in the hills on the east side of Los Angeles has two big things going for it: privacy, and spectacular views of the city. Isaac takes full advantage of the surrounding neighborhood, regularly running around the Silver Lake reservoir with his dog Giuseppe and frequenting the shops and restaurants in Sunset Junction. His job as a screenwriter often means long hours, but the stunning view from his home office makes the challenge of a deadline easier to stomach.
Joyce's "Bohemian Wonderland"
House Call
Name: Joyce
Location: Los Angeles, CA
My little house is my ultimate happy place! I work in the interior design field so the aesthetic of my home and the state of my surroundings are very important to me. Before finding this little gem I was living in an apartment building and yearned for an entertainment space- somewhere that looked out into lush greenery. I couldn't have gotten more lucky!

Location: Silver Lake - Los Angeles, California
Size: 2,200 square feet
Years lived in: 4 1/2 years
Aubin and Florice's modern loft is an interesting study of mixing elements to create a successful interior design. It has hard, concrete surfaces with stark white walls, yet the way they have furnished the space with warm woods and soft textiles balances out the more stark materials and surfaces.
Wendy & Gavin's Bright White Cottage

Location: Mar Vista — Los Angeles, CA
Size: 1,100 square feet

Shiva's Eclectic, Romantic Modern Ranch
House Tour Greatest Hits
Name: Shiva Rose
Location: Pacific Palisades, California
Size: 2500 square feet
Years lived in: 1 1/2 years
Personality is definitely present in this home! Shiva began with a severely outdated house and undertook an extensive renovation to make it a special home for her girls. It is packed with feminine elements (check out all the light fixtures) and anyone who enters the home feels loved.
Faith's Magical Bohemian Treehouse
House Tour Greatest Hits
Name: Faith Blakeney
Location: The Treehouse - Los Angeles, California
Size: 750 square feet
Years lived in: 2 years
I spent a warm Sunday hanging out with Faith at her bohemian treehouse. She is one stylish lady (and, yes, she is the sister of Justina Blakeney). When Faith moved from New York a few years back, she looked at place after place on Craigslist only to get frustrated because she had her heart set on lving in Venice. Then, when she reluctantly agreed to look at a place (now, her home) just outside of Venice, she cried when she walked through the front door. It was perfect!
Jim & Theresa's House on the Venice Canal
House Tour Greatest Hits
Name: Jim and Theresa Berger
Location: Venice canals — Venice Beach, CA
Size: 3,000 Square Feet
Years lived in:3 — own
The moment I spotted Jim and Theresa's home on CA Home + Design online I knew it was unique. To my happy surprise their interior designer Erinn Valencich of Erinn V. Design Group happened to be a recent acquaintance of mine. Welcome to a lovely family home that sits right on the water of the Venice canals.
Lisa & Piero's English Inspired Los Feliz Home
House Tour Greatest Hits
Name: Lisa Borgnes Giramonti (Embroidery artist/writer/creator of A Bloomsbury Life blog) & Piero Giramonti (President of Dangerbird Records)
Location: Los Feliz - Los Angeles, California
Size: 2500 square feet
Years lived in: 4 years
When you walk into Lisa and Piero's home, you instantly forget that you are still in Los Angeles. The wood burning fireplaces, dark walls, and black painted bookcases are definitely not typical of what you would find in an LA home. That's what makes their home so beautiful — it feels like an escape in Europe.
Echo's Artist's Loft
House Tour
Name: Echo Kao
Location: Toy District; Los Angeles, CA
Size: 870 square feet
Years lived in: 1 years; Owned
I knew that Echo was a talented industrial designer, but I was still surprised to learn that every night when she went home she was carefully crafting her own furniture. Her life and her work go hand-in-hand, which is reflected perfectly in the fact that her home has three(!) work spaces for her to spread out in. Stepping up to her loft from the chaotic street below in Los Angeles's Toy District, visitors are greeted with a calm, deliberate space that showcases the owner's amazing talent as well as a curated collection of local art.

Political Freedom Translates into Economic Freedom
David R. Francis, writer of The Christian Science Monitor, The Christian Science Monitor
Economic freedom begets prosperity and political freedom. And vice versa.
Conservative economists have been exploring and promoting that thesis in recent years.
It is "new groundbreaking research," says Bryan Johnson, a policy analyst at the Heritage Foundation in Washington. After ranking 161 nations on their economic freedom, Mr. Johnson concludes: "Those countries that are most economically free generally are also the most politically free. Similarly, those countries that are most economically repressed also tend to be the most politically repressed." James Gwartney, an economist at Florida State University, Tallahasee, figures political freedom and economic freedom advance each other. "Political reform precedes economic reform and makes it more lasting," he says. "Or economic reform, with its higher income levels, leads to a demand for political reform." That's just common sense, many would say. After all, in the post World War II years, nations governed by communist regimes or right-wing dictatorships have mostly done poorly in economic terms. In contrast, democratic, free-enterprise nations have thrived. The cold war ended with the fall of communism partly because it became widely evident in state-planned nations that the relatively free capitalist economies were more successful. Many liberals would agree. "There is evidence that a greater degree of democracy and personal freedom correlates with economic growth and dynamism," says Robert Reich, secretary of Labor during President Clinton's first term. "When people feel they have more control over their future, they tend to be more inventive and expansive in all aspects of their lives." Conservative economists, however, have wanted to make such observations more scientific. They have an agenda behind this effort. If they can prove the correlation of economic freedom with various goodies, such as political freedom, economic growth, stability in a financial crisis, and even greater income equality, they can urge developing countries, former communist countries, and, especially, the United States and other industrial nations to adopt the institutions and policies of free economies. Starting more than a decade ago, with the encouragement of Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman, these conservative economists have worked to devise a numeric way for defining, measuring, and ranking economic freedom. The Heritage Foundation and The Wall Street Journal last month published the fifth annual edition of their research results, the 490-page 1999 Index of Economic Freedom. A month earlier, another conservative think tank, The Fraser Institute in Vancouver, British Columbia, came out with its third version of a separate index on "Economic Freedom of the World." It was compiled with the help of 53 other similar institutions in as many nations around the world. (A third index, published for many years by Freedom House in New York, deals more with political or civil liberty rather than economic freedom.) Mr. Gwartney, one author of the Fraser index, sees it as the best measure of economic freedom. It relies on objective, quantifiable data, whereas the Heritage Foundation index uses some judgmental information, he maintains. This database allows an analysis of trends in economic freedom in a nation back to 1970. That, he says, enables analysts to see the impact of trends in economic freedom on growth and political liberty. But Heritage's Mr. Johnson says there are more similarities than differences in the two indexes, and that the results are highly comparable in ranking economic freedom. …

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

- Best deck shoe ever!
I have had two pairs of these. The first pair were unfortunately eaten by my dog. The current pair were purchased in 2001 at the Southampton Boat Show and are still hanging in there. They are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned! Sadly I can't find a replacement pair in size 7.5.
I await Chatham being able to return to half sizes in these shoes.

TO TAX OR NOT TO TAX: Tax Freedom or Free Ride?
Yang, James G. S., Poon, Wing W., Strategic Finance
By some accounts, the volume of Internet commerce is expected to reach $327 billion in the next five years. Due to the sudden explosion of e-commerce, debates are raging as to whether and how Internet commerce should be taxed.
The stakes could be enormous. A report to Congress by the Advisory Commission on Electronic Commerce says that if Internet commerce is exempt from sales tax, state and local governments could lose $3.5 billion dollars by 2003. Other estimates predict $8 billion a year in lost revenue by 2004. Though this accounts for only 2% of total sales tax proceeds, The National Tax Journal reports it could reach 10% by 2007. As a result, some experts warn that state and local governments might be forced to reduce spending on social services and education and then raise property taxes to make up the loss.
The hard questions include not just whether e-commerce vendors should pay sales tax--but who should collect it? In principle, the old rule of "nexus" applies. If the seller has a store in the state where the buyer lives, the seller must collect sales tax. But if the seller has no store in the buyer's state, the buyer is responsible for paying sales tax--called a "use tax" in this situation--to their state and local governments.
In 1992, the U.S. Supreme Court case Quill v. North Dakota limited the states' right to collect sales tax from mail order companies. The court ruled that as long as the seller doesn't reside in the same state as the buyer, the seller isn't required to collect sales tax.
The growth of the Internet and e-commerce intensified the debate. The Internet crosses state boundaries, so state and local governments have no jurisdiction. The seller is a computer server and easily moved. It may have no legal address, so its physical presence is elusive.
Meanwhile, the buyer's state government can t tax an out-of-state seller. Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform and former economist with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, notes that taxing out-of-state sellers amounts to taxation without representation. "You cannot allow Alabama politicians to impose taxes on businesses in Maine and New Hampshire because there is no limit to the abuses that can follow," he says. "They can go kick your door in and levy sales taxes on things you bought over the Internet."
Legally, Internet commerce is not tax free because buyers are supposed to pay the use tax. But it may as well be tax free for all practical purposes because few if any buyers actually pay it. David McClure, president and CEO of the U.S. Internet Industry Association, says states tried to resolve this dilemma by imposing taxes of their own, which often conflicted with each other.
In 1998, Congress tried to eliminate the contradictory taxes by enacting the Internet Tax Freedom Act. The law prohibits "taxes on Internet access... and multiple and discriminatory taxes on Internet commerce" until October 2001. The Act also formed an Advisory Commission on Electronic Commerce to make recommendations to Congress.
The 19-member panel voted last year to propose that Congress extend the moratorium on Internet taxation for five more years. Congress hasn't yet done that. So, while the Commission clarified some issues on e-commerce taxation, it didn't solve the problem.
The Commission also discussed a full complement of additional concerns:
In order to comply with tax remittance, consumers may be asked to supply personal information, such as addresses and credit card numbers.
Double Taxation
Double taxation can occur in international transactions when a country imposes sales tax on the seller while the United States charges it to the buyer.
Multiple jurisdictions
There are 30,000 jurisdictions in the U.S. It's almost impossible to comply with so many different tax rates and laws. …

This course is basically a course in epistemology. Epistemological questions ask "How do we know what we know?" In other words, this class is an investigation of the meaning and limits of knowledge with respect to the nature of mind and reality. These issues are pursued through several different but interrelated fields of study, including literature, art, philosophy, comparative religions and science. This interdisciplinary,12-unit course considers the human "need to know" as fundamental, evolutionarily successful, and the basis of all human learning (including all Hutchins classes).
1) To explore the boundaries of knowledge, and experience unfamiliar worldviews directly.
2) To understand the role of science in shaping the modern worldview; to explore the relationship between science and religion; to confront the limits of human knowledge.
3) To examine the historical, political, and psychological aspect of religion, within the context of an effort to understand that which we only know through faith.
4)To understand the significance of the spiritual impulse in changing personal perspectives, producing insight and meaning, and illuminating human endeavors. To consider human nature itself as something that is never completely defined, as part of the unknown.
5) To investigate the human impulse to create meaning and knowledge through narrative.
6) To explore our creativity through art, ritual, and myth in an attempt to reach into the unknown.
7) To develop greater critical skills in the seminar process through identifying and wrestling with key ideas, concepts and issues in the assigned readings, raising relevant questions, articulating complex connections, and building on the ideas of others.
8) To write with coherence, depth, style, and passion.
9) To take risks, be creative, and have fun.
You must choose your assessment mode (Letter Grade or Credit/No Credit) when you register, and if you wish to change it you must do so before the deadline (check with Admissions and Records). At the end of the semester there are five possible assessment marks.
• A letter grade A-F. Although you will be graded somewhat "holistically" (taking into account your overall performance and your specific strengths and weaknesses that may not be easily quantified) a rough guide to the value of each component of your overall total is:
- Written Work (Essays/Prep/Response Papers) = 30%
- Seminar Participation = 20%
- Research Paper = 20%
- Creative Project = 20%
- Portfolio = 10%
> 93 %
70 -72.5%
60- 69.5%
< 60%
• Pass (CR) – this means that you have completed the course requirements in good faith,will receive credit for the course, and will be continuing in the program.
• Pass on Probation—this means that you will receive credit, but will need to work on one or more aspects of your performance in order to remain. If you receive two probationary passes in a row, you must leave the Hutchins program.
• Terminal Pass – this means that you will receive credit for the course, but must leave the Hutchins program and continue in the Sonoma State GE program.
• Fail (NC) – this means that you did not complete the course requirements, cannot receive credit for the course, and must leave the program and continue in the Sonoma State GE program.
In addition to the remarks on your transcript, no matter what your grade mode is, your professor will briefly meet with you at mid-term and you will receive a written evaluation and numerical evaluation at that time and at the end of the semester.
The Unknown and the Unexpected:
This syllabus is subject to change, sometimes on very short notice.
Attendance: It is important that you attend all classes punctually and remain throughout. Late arrivals, early or frequent departures, and absences will always impact your status in the program, and more than six absences (seminar or symposium) for any reason may result in you receiving "no credit" for the course. Arriving over ten minutes late and/or leaving early, without prior permission, will count as one-half of an absence. Furthermore, using electronic devices during class time (seminar or symposium) is disallowed and will count as an absence. If there are difficulties or concerns, please bring them immediately to the attention of your instructor.
Participation: The quality of the seminar is primarily the responsibility of the students. Appropriate participation includes doing the assigned readings and taking notes, coming to class prepared to discuss the material, being respectful of your colleagues' feelings and ideas, listening carefully at all times, contributing to the dialogue without excessive dominance or pervasive silence, engaging critically with the material and the world around you, having fun and learning to learn. Participation during film screenings is equally crucial. Specifically, this entails paying close attention and taking notes during film screenings. This will also allow you to reengage with your thoughts and impressions from the original screening when considering the film later on, either in your writing or in seminar discussion.
Portfolio: You need to collect, in a three-ring binder, all the writing you will do in this course (your notes, response papers, essay drafts, etc.) and the reflection/ assessment forms, available for download on the Hutchins web page. You will be asked to assess this Portfolio on an ongoing basis, as well as those of the preceding three semesters in your final paper, an intellectual autobiography tracing the development of your thinking in the Lower Division. At the end of the semester, you will turn in your portfolio with all of your written work for the entire semester.
Writing Assignments: All assignments must be completed in a timely fashion and be word- processed, double-spaced, with 1-inch margins and borders, and in a standard 12 pt. font. You may be asked to rewrite essays that the instructor feels have not met minimal requirements. You should have in your possession Diana Hacker's Pocket Style Manual (also available on-line) for reference, as well as the class generated writing criteria for assessing your essays and those of your peers. You are responsible for correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, and formatting in all of your work. All assignments are due at the beginning of class. Late work will not be accepted except under extraordinary circumstances, in which case be sure to contact your instructor (either in person, by phone, or by email) before the assignment is due. (Note: last-minute printer problems do not constitute "extraordinary circumstances.") Consistently late work will affect your final grade.
The writing assignments for this class consist of: 1) Daily Connection Papers and 2) Essay Drafts. Daily Connection Papers should include your thoughts, your questions, your reflections and your associations (your "connections") – essentially all ruminations regarding the assigned reading. You should make specific reference to the assigned texts, and include relevant page numbers and quotations. They need to be at least one page in length. You need to have a Daily Connection Paper for each class. These will not be collected, but your professor will check to make sure you've brought one to class. They must be saved, however, and included in your portfolio at the end of the semester.
Essay Drafts should focus on one or more of the course themes and texts. Essays will go through at least two revisions. You may be asked to complete additional drafts if the instructor feels your writing still needs improvement. While there is no set page length for these essays, the second draft of each essay should be at least three full pages in length. In composing these essays, you need to adhere to the MLA Format and include a Works Cited page. Specific due dates for Essay Drafts are listed below.
Collegiality: Collegial and respectful behavior toward the professor and toward your student peers is vital to the success of each seminar and is required. As students will be leading seminar discussions in this course, it is especially important to show respect to the facilitator and to be a respectful participant in each seminar discussion. The instructor has the right to determine if and when a student is being disruptive and to ask that student to leave the seminar for that day. If the student refuses, it is appropriate to refer the student to campus authorities. Repeated incidents may result in permanent removal from the course.
Disability Services: If you are a student with a disability and you think that you may require accommodations, you must register with the campus office of Disabled Student Services, located in Salazar Hall 1049, phone 664-2677. DSS will provide you with written confirmation of you verified disability and authorize recommended accommodations. This authorization must be presented to your instructor before any accommodations can be made.
Plagiarism: Students are expected to be honest in meeting the requirements of courses in which they are enrolled. Cheating or plagiarism is dishonest, undermines the necessary trust upon which relations between students and faculty are based, and is unacceptable conduct. Students who engage in cheating or plagiarism will be subject to academic sanctions, including a lowered or failing grade in a course; and the possibility of an additional administrative sanction, including probation, suspension, or expulsion. www.sonoma.edu/uaffairs/policies/cheatingpolicy.htm
You are required to visit one place of worship that is "very different" from anything you have ever before experienced, or were previously socialized to accept as a child. It should also be a place that you hope will "speak" to you, "fill your cup" so to speak, enable you to "know" more either religiously, spiritually, or simply "wisely." Other than that, you're free to choose. You may, for example, choose a Mosque (Islamic service), a Native American experience (such as a sweat lodge or a vision quest), a synagogue, a Greek Orthodox Church, a pagan ritual (Earth Goddess, for example), or even a psychological or artistic event.... assuming you do not have prior experience. You will be asked to submit a 3 page description of your experience, including a reflection on how it impacted you and what you learned. You will also be asked to summarize orally for your classmates just how you were impacted, and these presentations will occur three times over the course of the semester:
One purpose of doing a research paper is to help you increase your research skills by doing further investigation on any of the topics covered by this syllabus including topics addressed by the authors of your texts, films, guest speakers, etc. A second purpose is to help you gather information that supports your creative project. Sometimes the research and the creative project cannot be correlated and that is acceptable. Keep in mind that a research paper is not an opinion piece, or editorial. It is your best attempt to answer, as objectively as possible, a question you pose. It has to be an answerable question. (Does God exist is not an answerable question.) You may start with a hunch, but your question should be about something you are curious about, that is, a question whose answer might actually surprise you.
Your research project will examine one of the following epistemological methods, that is, one of these "ways of knowing": a. science (scientific method), b. theistic prayer, c. spiritual (mystical) transcendence, and d. intuition (and other forms of extra-sensory perception).
Your research paper must be six pages not including the bibliography, and have a balanced variety of sources, books, journals, periodicals, and web sites. The important thing is that you examine the question of how efficacious this method or epistemological strategy is, according to the corpus of existing evidence.
There are many sites in the Internet to guide you through a research paper and we will be discussing the process during tutorials. These are two usefule websites: Introduction to Research Guide for your research: http://www.crlsresearchguide.org/00_Introduction.asp, and How to Evaluate Web Sources: http://libweb.sonoma.edu/web/eval.html
Your creative project will be an extension of your research project, expressed in some artistic medium. For example, if your research results in the finding that human intuition, when tested, only seems to be accurate 50% of the time, or even less, you would create a project that illustrated the ambiguity of this way of knowing, and the uncertainty of its efficacy.
NOTE: no collages of cut up magazine or Internet images will be credited as completing this assignment. You will present your project during the Creative Fair on Monday, December 11. It should be accompanied by a one page description with your name and your title, along with a brief explanation of the significance of the display. We will be discussing this further throughout the course.

- The EDCTP (European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership) action is a unique collaboration programme between European and sub-Saharan countries to combat HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. It aims to accelerate the development of new drugs or vaccines against these diseases and finances clinical trials in Africa. The EC contribution in this programme has reached EUR 200 million up to now. This FP6 project will end in 2010 but it is planned to continue support under FP7.
These are a few examples of clinical trials in the cancer area:
- The TRANSBIG Network of Excellence has developed a clinical trial called MINDACT (Microarray for Node Negative Disease may Avoid Chemotherapy). This trial compares two different ways of assessing the risk that a woman's breast cancer will come back. It is a validation study benefiting from an EC contribution of EUR 7 million under the 6th framework programme.
- CONTICANET (CONnective Tissue Cancers NETwork to integrate European Experience in Adults and Children) provides the infrastructure to test several drugs in patients with soft tissue cancers. The project received a EUR 9.4 million contribution.
- CANCERIMMUNOTHERAPY (Cancer Immunology and Immunotherapy) has for objective to develop anti-cancer vaccines with the help of clinical trials of vaccination. It received a EUR 12.2 million contribution.

Can humans form the alphabet? You bet!!!
Definitely. And this little book is proof that dancers can re-create a freestanding, working typeface.
Members of the Covent Garden Dance Centre in London joined me and assistant Chris Thomson to rehearse and photograph a beautiful valentine for the eye, called Love Letters. This little book has charmed everyone who has seen it, and it makes a perfect gift.

If it's not updates, you could always download Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org or Chrome from http://www.google/chrome . They're both very good browsers and work very well. I find Firefox a little more user friendly and Chrome more efficient. YMMV.
Good luck.

Supportive Solid Tumor Studies
Diseases Treated:
Eligibility Overview:
- Diagnosis of an adrenocortical tumor (ACT)
- 21 years of age or younger
- Relatives of patients with ACT
Brief Summary
Adrenocortical tumor (ACT) is a rare cancer that forms in the outer layer of the adrenal gland and is very uncommon in children and teenagers. There is variation in pediatric ACT incidence worldwide. In the United States, only about 25 new cases of ACT per million per year, making this a very rare tumor. However, in southern Brazil, the annual incidence of ACT is 15 times that seen in the United States accounting for 3.4 to 4.2 per million per year.
The creation of a rare tumor registry provides a mechanism to collect information that cannot be gathered in a single institution.
Primary Objectives
The analysis of the registry data:
- Will permit an overview of the clinical, epidemiological, current treatment standards, and survival data of these patients and thus create opportunities for research
- May facilitate the development of treatment consensus among investigators who register their patients and help to design future studies
- Will allow the combined Children's Oncology Group (COG) and IPACTR studies to provide meaningful insight into the biology of ACT, including clinical phenotype/genotype relationships and treatment outcome and long-term follow-up data in subjects with this rare tumor
- Will provide data on the long-term consequences of exposure to tumor-secreted androgens (found in more than 80% of the pediatric cases) on children's growth and development
Study Outline
This study aims to collect demographic and medical information including detailed family history of cancer of children and adolescents with adrenocortical tumors (ACT) to learn more about the clinical and epidemiological aspects, treatment modalities, and outcome of patients with this rare disease, worldwide.
In addition, investigators at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital plan to perform molecular studies of tumor cells aimed to clarify the role of the TP53 gene and other genetic pathways in these tumors. They aim to obtain relevant biological material from participants with ACT, their biological parents, and relatives for determination of the TP53 germline status, molecular studies of the TP53 gene, and other molecular pathways.
Study Arms
- Stratum A: Participant suspected or confirmed diagnosis of adrenocortical tumor (ACT)
- Stratum R: Relative of participant with ACT and TP53 mutation who has diagnosis of malignancy
- Stratum P: Biological parent of participant with ACT
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria - Stratum A (participant with ACT):
- Age ≤ 21 years old at diagnosis
- Suspected or confirmed diagnosis of adrenocortical tumor (adenoma, carcinoma or undefined histology)
Inclusion Criteria - Stratum R (relative):
- Any age
- Diagnosis of malignant tumor
Inclusion Criteria - Stratum P (parent):
- Biological parent of Stratum A participant

About this observational study
Adrenocortical tumor (ACT) is a very rare and fast-growing cancer of the adrenal glands, which are triangle-shaped glands located on both kidneys. The tumor is seen in only about 0.2 percent of all childhood cancers. It affects more girls than boys and most commonly develops in children between ages one and four years.
In the International Pediatric Adrenocortical Tumor Registry (IPACTR) study, researchers at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and at institutions around the world are working together to learn more about adrenocortical tumor. This information may help researchers learn better ways of treating children with these rare tumors.
Purpose of this observational study
The main goal of IPACTR is to collect relevant clinical and biological data, including blood and tissue samples, to help researchers better understand the following:
The main goal of IPACTR is to collect relevant clinical and biological data, including blood and tissue samples, to help researchers better understand the following:
- Common signs and symptoms of ACT
- The length of time between the first signs and symptoms and diagnosis of ACT
- How genetic conditions such as Li-Fraumeni and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome make a person more likely to develop ACT
- Family history of cancer in relatives of children with ACT
- How children with ACT in different parts of the world are treated
- How the genetic makeup affects survival in children and relatives with ACT
Eligibility overview
- Diagnosis of an adrenocortical tumor (ACT)
- 21 years of age or younger
- Relatives of patients with ACT
