Ph.D. Thesis/Research
Abstract of Ph.D. dissertation
"Producing heterotopia: Traces of the cinema in the thick space of governmentality, localism and citizenship in 1934 Hong Kong." [New York University: Cinema Studies]
658 p.
Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 67-09, Section: A, page: 3203.
Adviser: Toby Miller
|The project began as the quest for an absent history of the pre-war Hong Kong cinema, finally re-defined as the study of one year, an attempt to gain the first sights and sounds of 1934's material existence, a year without monumental significance and before cinema turned full sound.
The choice of 1934 problematizes at once normative definitions of "significant events" and "film culture." Upholding "spatial realism" (as opposed to conceptual realism), I refresh the category of "space-time" to supercede the "time versus space" dichotomy in history-writing, thus re-assessing standard historiographic categories like causal relation, continuity, progress, and structure-conjuncture to call for revised narrative models. Spatial realism leads to the critical engagement with mapping, urban morphology, and a sought dialog between "production of space" and "heterotopia."
I also critique the notion of film culture, arguing that pro-filmic events need not always be placed in the paradigmatic center to yield productive cinema history, whereas individual films and related activities can be unique nodal points through which factual and fictional histories travel.
A multiple-approach chapter scheme establishes the following: that cinema necessarily forms a continuum with other everyday life domains; that quotidian micro-processes involving multiple players best illumine (the effects of) governmentality, and in Hong Kong's case, one looks at the colonial administration's pacification tactics in population management, the promotion of leisure via spatial reproduction, relaxing land purchase and rental legislation, and a bottom-up "Cantonization" process forging a local identity around a distinct shared dialect, Cantonese. Two key chapters trace my virtual walk through the urban space along key transportation routes, steered by thick description and free story-telling. I reveal traces of the government's constant relocation of Chinese residential clusters as disciplinary measures, and how movie theaters spatially intervened into a minor district as it evolved into modernized urbanity. Seventeen silent and Cantonese-language films are investigated, following the order of their exhibition dates across 1934, emphasizing the textual transportation between cinema and other locations of cultural writings and moral exegesis, yielding a unique picture of production of citizenship via self-techniques. Adopting process-oriented narrative strategies, I have embodied both the reflexive historian and situated ethnographer, illustrating performativity in positive knowledge production.

"In order to see the difference, be the difference."
The Student Government Association (SGA) is comprised of two elected executive officers consisting of president and vice president. The elected officers then appoint a student to serve as the secretary/treasurer. From there, the elected officers select a diverse group of students to serve as senate staff and senators. The organization is broken down into several committees, including Academic Affairs, Student Affairs, Governmental Affairs, Diversity Affairs, Information Technology, Student Activities, and THON.
Regular meetings are held to carry out the responsibilities of:
- Initiating all legislation concerning the welfare of the student body;
- Supporting the functions and activities of the student body;
- Vesting authority to student organizations;
- Investigating any appeal made to it by any student concerning problems of general student welfare or well-being; and
- Assuming financial responsibility for SGA funds

Does IBM Cognos FSR run on the Apple Macintosh operating system?
The need to run the application on a Macintosh environment.
IBM Cognos FSR has not been tested with the Macintosh Operating Systems and was developed to work with Windows Operating Systems. Therefore it is not supported to run FSR on Mac OS.
As a workaround a virtualization solution that runs on both Windows and Macintosh can be used to provide the application to users that only have access to Mac OS operating systems.

Excerpt from page 7
Chances are that you have most of the equipment you need to make soap right around the house. The equipment and ingredients you don't have are easily found in grocery stores or online. As you gain experience making cold process soap, you might want to make your own wooden mold, mold liner, and soap cutter. Instructions for doing so are included in chapter 7. In the meantime, easy-to-find alternatives will work almost as well.

Part of being a successful student at any college or university is keeping up with the opportunities for financing your education. Students who utilize financial aid funding to meet their educational expenses can increase their chances to reach their goals.
There are FIVE basic steps for receiving any form of financial aid (federal, state, institutional, or private):
You must complete and submit an application for all forms of financial aid.
Adhere to deadlines
Sign and date all documents
Verify the application is complete before submitting
Financial aid verification is a process to validate the data provided on the application.
See the Financial Aid Verification 2015-16 page for a comprehensive list of forms used in this process.
The Federal government, college, or scholarship organization can require you to submit additional documents in order to continue processing your financial aid award (grant, scholarship, or loan).
After your financial aid application is reviewed and verified, and it is determined that you have met satisfactory academic progress requirements, you will receive an award notice from the Financial Aid Office.
Disbursement is when your financial aid funds on your award letter are transferred (credited) to your account in the Cashier's Office. Credited funds will pay the current semester's tuition, fees, and books, first. Any remaining funds, will be distributed to you for other educational expenses.
When it comes to paying your tuition, you can balance the cost of tuition with other demands on your income by making use of the tuition payment plan. The tuition payment plan is open to all students but can be especially beneficial to those who cannot qualify for federal student aid or loans.
These payment plans enable you to make monthly payments throughout the semester from your checking account or with a credit card.
STEP 5 – Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)
Most, if not all, forms of financial aid have an academic eligibility requirement.
Be aware of the academic requirements to maintain funding eligibility
Note that evaluation of satisfactory academic progress can happen semester-by-semester and/or yearly
Financial aid is scheduled to credit to your student accounts near the end of the second full week of the standard term or the earliest class start date (whichever occurs the latest). Excess aid - the amount remaining after all tuition, fees, book advance, and any other related charges are covered - will be disbursed to you through the Maricopa Student Refund Program (MSRP). Students should not expect their funds any earlier than the following week and the timing is dependent upon the MSRP delivery method selected.
Funding Your Education - A deep dive into Federal Student Aid.
U.S. Department of Education Student Aid website - The complete resource on Federal Student Aid.
Not sure if you might qualify for Federal Student Aid? Use FAFSA4caster to estimate your eligibility.Please Note: only those with a lawful presence in the U.S. may qualify for Federal financial aid or Maricopa Community Colleges scholarships. Under Arizona law, any information provided about legal status when you apply for financial aid or scholarships may be subject to mandatory reporting to federal immigration authorities.

Isaac McCoy (1784-1846) was born in Pennsylvania and died in Kentucky. A Baptist minister, surveyor, and author, McCoy spent his adult life as a missionary among the Indians in what would become Kansas. His work with the Indians caused McCoy to sense the need of a permanent Indian country where tribes could be free from the "corrupting influences attending association with the frontier people of that early period." Consequently he was one of the first to suggest the removal of Eastern tribes to the unoccupied areas of the West. The mission he helped to establish in Kansas around 1830 is still standing and is open to the public.
Isaac McCoy's papers (1808-1874) are located in the Kansas State Historical Society.
The Annual Register of Indian Affairs within the Indian (or Western) Territory (Shawanoe Baptist Mission, Indian Territory: Isaac M'Coy), 1835.
Printed by Jotham Meeker at Shawnee Mission, this is the first book in English printed in the Indian Territory.
The Annual Register of Indian Affairs within the Indian (or Western) Territory (Shawanoe Baptist Mission, Indian Territory: Isaac M'Coy), 1836.
Second issue of the Annual Register publications.
The Annual Register of Indian Affairs within the Indian (or Western) Territory (Shawanoe Baptist Mission, Indian Territory: Isaac M'Coy), 1837.
Third issue of the Annual Register publications. A fourth and final issue appeared in 1838.
Jotham Meeker's papers (1825-1864) are located in the Kansas State Historical Society.
Periodical Account of Baptist Missions within the Indian Territory: For the Year Ending December 31, 1836 (Shawanoe Baptist Mission, Indian Territory: Isaac M'Coy), 1837.
Printed by Jotham Meeker at his own cost on May 5th and 12th, 1837, it is the first and only issue of this periodical. It is also the only copy in a Kansas library. It was designed to inform Baptist churches in the east about the missionary work in the Indian Territory.
Theodore Frelinghuysen (1787-1862), Speech of Mr. Frelinghuysen, of New Jersey, Delivered in the Senate of the United States, April 6, 1830, on the Bill for an Exchange of Lands with the Indians Residing in Any of the States or Territories, and for Their Removal West of the Mississippi (Washington, DC: Office of the National Journal), 1830.
By Act of Congress, May 26, 1830, a vast territory west of the Mississippi River was designated Indian Territory and intended to be the permanent home of all Native American tribes. The forced removal of Native American tribes from east of the Mississippi River to the territories west of the Mississippi River in 1831 is one of the greatest crimes inflicted upon Native Americans. Although put into place during the administration of President Andrew Jackson, the idea is attributed to President Thomas Jefferson. Many eastern tribes were relocated to the Kanzas Territory, where the climate, game and land were as unfamiliar to them as the thousands of whites who would pour into the territory a few years later.
Kansas-Nebraska Act
Under the provisions of the Missouri Compromise (1820), the lands in the Louisiana Purchase north of 36 30' north latitude were to be free of slavery, except for Missouri which was admitted with Maine as a free state. Senator Stephen Douglas satisfied his Southern colleagues by proposing a bill that would divide the Nebraska Territory into two parts: Kansas and Nebraska. The territorial legislatures of both parts would then allow "popular sovereignty" to determine whether or not slavery would be permitted within their borders.
A bitter and vitriolic debate seized Congress and the nation prior to the vote on the act in May 1854, which won by a narrow margin. President Franklin Pierce signed the bill immediately and the fate of the territory as "bloody Kansas" was sealed.
Massachusetts Emigrant Aid Company, Organization, Objects, and Plan of Operations, of the Emigrant Aid Company (Boston: Alfred Mudge & Son), 1854.
This work went through four editions in 1854; this is a second edition, which contains a tipped-in slip announcing the departure on November 21, 1854 of the "Sixth and Last Regular Party for the Season." The Massachusetts Emigrant Aid Company encouraged anti-slavery northerners to settle in Kansas.

Charles W. Dana, The Great West; or, The Garden of the World ... with Statistics and Facts, from Thomas H. Benton, Sam Houston, and John C. Fremont (Boston: Wentworth, Hewes & Co.), 1856.
Guide books such as this lured many Americans from the eastern states into the western states and territories with promises of abundances of timber, coal, limestone, and agricultural land. Upon their arrival to the Kanzas Territory, many early settlers realized that the claims were greatly exaggerated. As to the climate of Kanzas, this book states "The climate of Eastern Kanzas resembles that of Kentucky and Missouri. It is warm in summer, and in winter mild, with now and then a few severe frosty and stormy days and nights. ... Snow in winter seldom exceeds two or three inches in depth, and soon disappears."

A great portion of this book is based on the author's experiences in the territory from 1850 to 1855.
Sara Tappan Lawrence Robinson (1827-1911), Kansas, its Interior and Exterior Life: Including a Full View of its Settlement, Political History, Social Life, Climate, Soil, Productions, Scenery, etc. (Boston: Crosby, Nichols and Company), 1856. 3rd printing
Robinson was the wife of Charles R. Robinson, a New England Emigrant Aid Company agent, one of the founders of Lawrence and the first governor of Kansas in 1861. While her husband was in prison at Lecompton under arrest by pro-slavery forces, Sara joined him and wrote most of this book there.
Thomas Wentworth Higginson (1823-1911), A Ride Through Kanzas (New York: American Anti-Slavery Society), 1856.
Letters originally published in the New York Tribune dated September 12 to October 20, 1856 detailing a trip to Nebraska City, Topeka, Lawrence, and Leavenworth. Higginson, a prominent abolitionist, was a general agent for a free- state train of 28 wagons that he helped to organize in Massachusetts and Maine. This account details his arrest and the first attack on Lawrence by pro-slavery forces. Higginson would later become colonel of the 1st South Carolina Volunteer Infantry, one of the first black regiments, during the Civil War.

In 1855, the author was sent to the territory as a special correspondent to the New York Tribune. He was a radical abolitionist and his reports are filled with anti-slavery rhetoric.
George Douglas Brewerton (1820-1901), The War in Kansas: A Rough Trip to the Border, Among New Homes and a Strange People (New York: Derby & Jackson), 1856.
Brewerton served as a correspondent for the New York Herald and this book is an account of his time in the territory from December 1855 to January 1856. Brewerton remained neutral during his time in the territory and he provides a great deal of both pro-slavery and anti-slavery material.
The Kansas War; or, The Conquests of Chivalry in the Crusades of the Nineteenth Century: A Heroic Poem(New York: Mason Brothers), 1856.
Attributed to Theodore Dwight (1796-1866) who lived and worked in New York as a newspaper writer. He worked to send anti-slavery emigrants to Kansas between 1854 and 1858.
John McNamara (1821?-1885), Three Years on the Kansas Border (New York: Miller, Orton & Mulligan), 1856.

A Republican Party campaign document that exposes the "Code of pretended laws enacted by the bogus Territorial Legislature of Kansas."

This exceedingly rare pamphlet is the only known copy. The text is taken from the St. Louis Republican newspaper of September 19th and emphasizes the paramilitary activities of James Lane, who led anti-slavery forces against the "innocent" pro-slavery homesteaders in the Kansas Territory. It accuses the Republican Party of "disunion" and "treason" and denounces the leaders of the "Black Republican Abolition Convention" that nominated John C. Fremont for President. Of special interest is a very early mention of John Brown, who assaulted "a settlement, known by the name of 'the Georgia Colony,' which was composed of a number of families from the State of Georgia."
United States Congress, House Committee. Report of the Special Committee Appointed to Investigate the Troubles in Kansas, with the Views of the Minority of Said Committee(Washington, DC: C. Wendell, Printer), 1856.
Numbering over 1,300 pages, this special report No. 200, House of Representatives, 34th Congress is a collection of the history of the troubles as well as a list of nearly every voter in the territory.

Western Border Life; or, What Fanny Hunter Saw and Heard in Kanzas and Missouri (New York: Derby & Jackson), 1856.
A novel dealing with the struggle to make Kansas a free state. It is believed to be the first novel that uses Kansas as the setting.
Hannah Anderson Chandler Ropes, Six Months in Kansas (Boston: J. P. Jewett), 1856.
A series of letters detailing a trip from Boston to the Kansas Territory in 1855-56. Most of the letters were written from Lawrence and provide a good first-hand account of the territorial struggles.
American Abolition Society. The Kansas Struggle, of 1856, in Congress, and in the Presidential Campaign with Suggestions for the Future (New York: American Abolition Society), 1857.
Another anti-slavery work devoted to a free Kansas. Although this is a very biased account of the events in the territory, it does have a very good account of the early tenure of Governor Geary.
Thomas H. Gladstone, Kansas; or, Squatter Life and Border Warfare in the Far West (London: G. Routledge & Co.), 1858. 2nd edition
A reprint of Gladstone's columns from the London Times (1856-57) detailing his travels in the Kansas Territory during the anti-slavery / pro-slavery troubles. Gladstone arrived in the territory on May 22, 1856, the day after the sacking of Lawrence. When Gladstone traveled to Leavenworth, Governor Charles Robinson under arrest for "treason" was a passenger on the same boat.
Martha Elizabeth Duncan Walker Cook (1806-1874), Affectionately Addressed to Robt. J. Walker, Governor of Kansas(New York: J. F. Trow, Printer), 1857.
A poem written by the sister of Territorial Governor Robert Walker. The Free-State Party refused to participate in the constitutional convention formed by the pro-slavery legislature. The Lecompton Constitution was framed, but never approved by the U.S. Congress. Walker resigned as territorial governor later in 1857.
E. H. Niles to "Friend Emery", Hamlin, Kansas Territory, December 21, 1857
This outstanding early letter from the Kansas Territory details the author's frustration at the current state of politics in the territory on the day a vote was to be taken on the Lecompton Constitution:
"To-day as you are aware the people of Kansas have an opportunity to vote for the Constitution framed at Lecompton. We the citizens of Hamlin & vicinity are deprived of that glorious privelege. You of course ask why & how? The judges of election appointed by Calhoun refuse to have anything to do with it. They refuse to act as judges, refuse to allow the election to be held, at their houses and refuse to vote."
He wrote prophetically about the nation's impending civil war:
"If Congress admits us under that instrument & the proslavery party gets the officers under a 'war is inevitable.'"
Lecompton Constitution
After meeting for two days at Pawnee, near Fort Riley, the fraudulently-elected pro-slavery Territorial legislature moved to Lecompton. In 1857, a decidedly pro-slavery constitution was framed by the legislature that also contained a bill of rights that excluded free blacks. The Lecompton Constitution was rejected by a vote in January 1858, and more violence erupted in the Territory. More than 200 people died and many more were wounded in the years of territorial civil war before Kansas was admitted to the Union as a free state under the Wyandotte constitution in 1861.

Reprinted from Forney's Philadelphia Press, February 9, 1858.
Speech of Hon. D. C. Broderick, of California, Against the Admission of Kansas under the Lecompton Constitution (Washington, DC: Lemuel Towers), 1858.
This is only one of two known items authored by Broderick, a Democratic Senator from California. Because of disputes within the Democratic Party in California, Broderick allied himself with Stephen Douglas in the bitter intra-party battle over Kansas. After opposing the pro-slavery Lecompton constitution as a fraud, pro-Southern Buchanan Democrats shunned and threatened Broderick, and he was eventually marked for death. A year after this speech, David Terry, a political rival and a justice of the California Supreme Court, called Broderick a follower of Frederick Douglass, not of Stephen Douglas. Broderick responded intemperately and Terry challenged him to a duel. Terry resigned his seat on the court and being a crack shot, he killed Broderick. Terry was killed several years later when he tried to assault U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Field.

Goodnow kept an accurate record of expenditures for the college, including lumber, nails, linseed oil, and various hardware. He also included many newspaper clippings about Bluemont Cental College from New England towns where he visited, presumably to raise funds.
William P. Tomlinson, Kansas in Eighteen Fifty-Eight: Being Chiefly a History of the Recent Troubles in the Territory (New York: H. Dayton), 1859.
Another newspaper man, Tomlinson rode in eastern Kansas in the summer of 1858. This work has a great deal of information on the Marais de Cygnes Massacre and the attack on Fort Scott.

A rare Topeka territorial imprint, recording the conference minutes, participants' names, constitution and rules of order, statistical data, and committee reports. An abstract of letters is included and the one from Osawatomie advises that, "This little band has suffered much interruption from the early Kansas wars and during the later troubles in Southern Kansas. Their pastor is the Rev. [Benjamin] Reed, who ... was one of those prisoners who were drawn up in line by their invading captors, and shot in cold blood, during the spring of 1858. Bro. Reed was left for dead, but still lives to praise God."
Minutes of the Kansas and Nebraska Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church held in Leavenworth City, K. T. (Leavenworth: The Herald Book and Job Office), 1860.

In 1858, a small amount of gold was found in Ralston Creek near present-day Arvada (Colorado) and at Dry Creek near what would be the site of Denver City. Within a few months, word of the discoveries quickly spread east and the great Kansas gold rush was on. In 1859 three large lode claims were made near Pike's Pike and an estimated 100,000 people headed to the Kanzas Territory.

A human Jessica Rabbit is just getting started. Married 25-year-old Penny Brown says she has been "obsessed" with the animated screen sex symbol all of her life, and took her fixation to new levels by undergoing breast augmentation and extreme tummy shaping. The result? A top-heavy, tiny waisted woman who can now rival the Human Barbie for outlandish Internet transformation tales.
Courtesy of the Inquisitr, here she is. E Online also has a (less flattering) full length shot of "Jessica."
The Australian-born woman now lives in Okinawa, Japan. She says the only actual surgery she had was to increase her breast size from a 34H to a 36O for starters. As far as her sucked-in waistline? Penny says she accomplished that by squeezing into a tiny, 23-inch corset all day long to "shape" her body. She now has a 23-inch midsection, down from 38.
"I've been obsessed with Jessica Rabbit from a really early age," Penny said. "I think she is incredibly sexy and there's a real power and strength to her character. I've always wanted to copy that—at five I was already thinking about breast implants."
Even before she developed breasts, she wanted implants? Now she says she wants them even bigger.
"I'm kind of a go hard or go home sort of person," Penny commented. "The bigger they are the better, and I don't think I'll ever be big enough."
Human Barbie Valeria Lukyanova: 'Breatharian' starves herself on 'light and air'
Penny goes on to say that although she's in love with "my body and my shape," she'd "still like to have more extreme portions" and plans to "keep having breast surgery until my boobs are as big as possible," adding that she would never have any other surgeries other than on her breasts.
I bet these ten celebrities once said the same thing.
Penny's husband weighed in on his wife's cartoon transformation, saying his wife "is as close to Jessica Rabbit as any mere mortal can get. Her shape is exciting and interesting."
If you say so. What are your thoughts on Penny's transformation? Would you even think of Jessica Rabbit if you saw her? Sound off below.

Will Rajon Rondo finish the season with the Celtics. We'll find out on January 19th
The Celtics 2014-15 schedule was unveiled tonight and by the looks of it, it'll be tough at the beginning and the end. Needless to say, the NBA didn't do them any favors right out of the gate. Here's a monthly breakdown of the Celtics 2014-15 schedule.
November: The Celtics open the season on October 29th versus KG and the Brooklyn Nets. Brooklyn didn't make their first trip to Boston last season until January. Assuming Garnett plays this season, he'll get a warm reception from Celtics fans. The Celtics play eight home games in November. The home slate is highlighted by visits from Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder on November 12th, Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers on November 14th and the defending NBA champion San Antonio Spurs on November 30th. Road games against the Rockets. Mavericks and Bulls highlight what is the toughest month of the Celtics schedule.
December: I know you'll be disappointed Celtics fans, but your team will not be playing on Christmas Day for the second straight year. Who cares! I would rather not watch anything on Christmas. Its family time! Anyway, back to the schedule. The Lakers visit the Garden on December 5th. It'll be the return of Kobe Bryant. He didn't play when when the Lakers came to town last February. The Celtics play Paul Pierce and the Wizards three times this season and all three meetings are in December. Pierce's return to Boston takes place on December 7th. Home games against the Knicks and the Nets and a Florida trip are some of the other key games in December.
January: The Celtics play ten road games in January. The month is highlighted by a west coast trip that includes stops in Denver, Los Angeles (Clippers), Utah, Portland, Golden State and Minnesota. The home slate in January is tough as well. The Mavericks, Bulls, Pelicans, Hawks, Hornets and Rockets all visit the Garden.
February: All-Star month. The league listened to the players and decided to shut the league down for eight days before and after the all-star break. The Celtics last game before the break is February 11th (my birthday by the way) and they don't play again until February 20th when they visit Sacramento. That will be the beginning of a short west coast swing which also features visits to Los Angeles (Lakers) and Phoenix. By the way Rajon Rondo fans, the trade deadline is February 19th. Thats the day he'll be traded.
March: March is tough for two reasons. One: The Celtics play every other day for the entire month. Two: The schedule is challenging. The Warriors, Grizzlies, Heat and Clippers visit the Garden. The Celtics will have to play road games in Cleveland, New Orleans, Oklahoma City and San Antonio. Other than November, I think March is the toughest month on the Celtics schedule.
April: Six of the Celtics last eight games are against Central division opponents. The Celtics face Lebron and the Cavs twice. They also play Jabari Parker and the Bucks twice. They play the Pistons once. The other two games in April are against the Toronto Raptors.
At best, the Celtics will win 28 to 30 games this season. I'm warning you right now. They are going to get off to a rough start. Their schedule in November is a bitch. The only other month that compares in terms of tough games, is March. By the way, the Celtics play only one nationally televised game this season and that's January 14th against the Hawks on ESPN. My how the mighty have fallen!

Brainstorming in the Rancho!Posted by Jul10, 2010 Comments /span>
Pura Vida!! It's an amazing day here at Shaka! The sky is clear, the sun is shining, a gentle breeze is blowing, and it is muy tranquilo.
In between surf sessions and quad expeditions, Krista, Mo'e and I have been busy brainstorming and tossing around new ideas for vacation packages to offer on Shaka Beach Retreat Website! Inspired by an old friend, Mo'e, a certified personal trainer, is totally stoked on the idea of putting together a Fitness Adventure package. it's going to be amazing: early morning yoga on the beach, beach boot camps, hiking and zip-line tours in Montezuma, surf lessons, healthy meals, and so much more! It's going to be killer and designed for the vacationers who are interested in getting in shape while enjoying all of the adventure that the Nicoya Peninsula has to offer.
In addition, I'm working on writing a biography for our camp dog, Lady, that we will have posted on the website and a write up to submit to Zoom! Nicoya Peninsula- a local magazine with news and tourist information. It's a pretty exciting time here.
I'm totally excited and working ferociously to get camp ready for 2 weeks of adaptive surf camps with Ocean Healing Group!! It's going to be great to see all of my old friends, meet some new people, and bring some excitement to our injured campers. Ahhh… it makes my heart feel so good when the camps are here. The experience of being involved with OHG camps is hard to put into words: emotional, inspiring, soul-soothing, and magical. I have met some of the most incredible people in my life here at Shaka!!
Mo'e will be here soon to take me out for an instructional surf session… I'm stoked! Gotta go wax my board, liberally apply that sunscreen, and hit the beach!
Keep checking back for more news, updates, and stories about my volunteer experience on The Shaka Front!

I love BBQ season. It means warmer nights, get-togethers with friends and family, and Pete does most of the barbecuing!
I've been enjoying this marinade for years! I got the recipe from my Mom who got it from her brother (my most excellent Uncle Rick). The recipe was originally a marinade for Flank Steak…
However, I don't eat meat so we use it to marinate tofu, tempeh, and market-fresh vegetables.
This recipe is worth making once a week during BBQ season, it's THAT good. And I love marinades because you can spread the work out over the day; and in my pre-schooler filled world, that is exactly the kind of supper I need.
You can make the marinade the night before (the longer it marries the better) and chop the veggies in the morning. Chop the tofu and tempeh at lunch. Add the veggies and tofu/tempeh to the marinade after nap-time. Barbeque it all up while the babes are watching The Doodlebops. Voila, a healthy and nutritious supper for all of us.
You can do this with skewers, or you can just barbeque the tofu or tempeh in strips and the veggies in one of those fancy schmancy BBQ bowls.
Uncle Rick's Flank Steak Marinade
3/4 cup olive oil ( we use extra-virgin)
1/4 cup tamari or soy sauce (gluten-free)
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
2 tbsp vinegar
2 tbsp finely chopped onion
1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 blocks of tempeh OR two blocks of tofu
chopped vegetables
Combine ingredients and pour over cubed tofu or tempeh, and vegetable (peppers, mushrooms, zucchini, onion, tomatoes, etc). Marinate for at least 30 minutes; the longer the better.
Turn often.
BBQ and enjoy!
*You could definitely make this a sugar-free marinade by omitting the honey or maple syrup. I've never tried it this way but please leave a comment if you do.
So? What's your favourite thing about BBQ season?

The University of West Georgia scored a homecoming victory with a 31-17 win at University Stadium last week. It was the second homecoming game to take place in the new facility. It was just one of the many festivities to take place during the school's weeklong celebration.
Student organizations displayed banners and participated in a sidewalk chalk competition in front of the school's UCC building. Homecoming on the Square had a successful turn out and was followed by a spirited Pep Rally. Other events included Yell Like Hell and pre-game tailgating at the stadium.

Answer: Why yes, yes she is. And then I clicked next a few times and saw this look...
Does this remind anyone else of Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? This chick just looks so incognito (in the most conspicuous way)! Plus, how great would that hat be when you are having both a bad hair day AND a major dark circles under the eyes day? Am I right?
But then...
Really? Is this whole collection a tribute to the 101 Dalmations buildings at the All Star Movies resort, where I worked for several months straight? (because I missed the bid and didn't get to pick Music and dude, that was bad.) So many doggies!
OMG. THE HAT HAS A FACE. FACE HAT! I'm guessing that there is some sort of Cruella DeVille thing going on here? Especially since there is also a lot of fur in the collection?
And wait! What is the hand thing? Is that a necklace? Or a scarf? Or is something really shady going on with an invisible man on the runway?
This chick is basically wearing horsie pajamas. I want to be her friend.
Me at 10 years old wants this sweater SO. BAD.
I just... I'm just... I can't even comment anymore.
If you don't buy me a tarantula hat for Christmas, I will probably never speak to you again.
I don't need to see anything else, best show of the season. I don't remember the last time a show left me both totally delighted and totally saying "WTF??" I am in love!

March Madness begins and so does Warren Buffet's billion dollar perfect bracket contest, which is a free chance at winning a billion dollars. All you have to do is pick out a perfect bracket, but according to Slate on March 16, you're not going to win and no one else will win either.
Make your picks today at the Warren Buffet/Quicken Loans Billion Dollar Bracket Contest, as the website is now letting you fill out your bracket. You have until 1 a.m. on March 20, to sign-up and make your picks. Those of you who registered early can now make your bracket picks.
Warren Buffet has teamed up with Quicken loans and anyone over the age of 18 has a chance at filling out the March Madness bracket. If you get all 63 winning teams correct, the billion dollar grand prize is yours. Slate reports that you are not going to win and they may be right as the odds of winning are 1 in 9,223,372, 036, 854, 775, 808.
If you need to tell someone the odds, you would say that it is "one in nine quintillion and change," according to Slate. A math professor at DePaul University calculated out the chances of winning and presented a different scenario for the odds.
Before you had even a 50-50 chance of winning, 90 billion brackets would need to be filled out. In the last 13 years CNN has run a large-scale bracket contest and not a soul has come close to a perfect bracket. Not rain on your parade even more, but only one person has managed to pick the first-round winners in the last seven years.
OK, so what about beginners luck? It is a chance you are taking and even though it is one of the longest shots available on the globe, it's free and it only takes a few minutes to sign-up, so what is the harm in giving it a shot?
The contest is insured, so if someone does happen to win, a specialty insurance company will have to pay the creators of this contest the billion dollars. Quicken Loans is paying an undisclosed amount of money for the Oracle of Omaha's company Berkshire Hathaway to insure the contest.
Slate is right, you will probably not win, but just on the outside chance you are feeling there's a slight chance that this could be your March Madness year, head on over and fill out the bracket. Even if you do it just for fun!

Feb. 5, 2013
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – As the season looms RollTide.com is going to preview the Alabama softball team. The third edition sheds light on the deep Crimson Tide infield.
The infield in 2013 will have similar faces except for at first base. All-American Kaila Hunt returns after having one of the most prolific power-hitting seasons in program history. Hunt smacked 21 home runs and had 77 RBI to lead all players in the Southeastern Conference.
Hunt will be part of a deep infield, one that Murphy is extremely excited about. After losing senior Cassie Reilly-Boccia at first base, he has the ability to rotate numerous players throughout the four infield spots. The Tide returns Courtney Conley at third, Hunt at shortstop, and Danae Hays at second, but Murphy says the team's depth will be shown.
"At first base we have Jackey Branham, Jadyn Spencer and Leona Lafaele," Murphy said. "They have all done a great job. They are very good targets over there. I think it will come down to who is the most consistent hitter because they have been doing very well defensively, all of them. To lose a Cassie [Reilly-Boccia] who was the leader on the infield was huge, so they have big shoes to fill."
Conley returns for her senior season after hitting .281 with six home runs and 26 RBI. Hays got a lot of playing time as a freshman in 2012, hitting .253 with five home runs and 21 RBI.
Joining Conley and Hays are very experienced players in Branham and Ryan Iamurri. Branham hit .250 with two home runs and 11 RBI but added a .410 on base percentage in 48 at bats. Iamurri hit .375 in 32 at bats, adding a home run and two stolen bases.
Danielle Richard was also a key piece for the Tide in 2012 as a freshman. Richard hit .256 in 41 games and was a perfect 9-for-9 in stolen bases while adding 15 runs. Spencer provided some punch off the bench, slugging .545 in 33 at bats while hitting .303.
"The depth, again, is probably going to be our biggest strength," Murphy said. "We have two kids at every position that can start for probably eighty percent of Division I softball. That doesn't happen very often."
Alabama will open its 2013 season at the UNI Dome Tournament in Cedar Falls, Iowa. UA will face Illinois in the opener on Friday, Feb. 8, with first pitch slated for 3 p.m.

The finale for season 15 of NBS's Biggest Loser brings with it a flurry of controversy over how much winner Rachel Frederickson lost. According to the Entertainment Weekly recap on Feb. 5, she lost a total of 155 pounds and weighs 105 pounds. That's 60 percent off of her starting weight of 260 pounds. Needless to say, she looks like a totally different person, and not everyone thinks it's a healthy look. At 5 foot 4 inches is 105 pounds too thin for the season 15 winner?
Rachel appeared on the Today Show this morning, and Al Roker said, "You look great." Roker himself lost 140 pounds but gained 40 back after having gastric bypass surgery. He has written a book titled Never Goin' Back about his own weight loss journey. Roker asked Rachel, "Can you believe how far you have come?"
"I can't believe it. It's just been such an amazing, almost seven-and-a-half-month journey. I'm truly grateful for the whole experience." – Rachel Frederickson via Today Show
Rachel was an athlete before she gained her weight following an unhappy breakup. She admits that when she gained the weight she lost her confidence. "I lost that athlete," but with the weight loss she "got that spark back."
According to BMI Biggest Loser is too thin
Is the season 15 Biggest Loser too thin? Her body mass index (BMI) is .5 lower than what is considered normal and places her in the underweight category. BMI is used by many doctors as an indicator of healthy weight and while it isn't an exact science it offers a way to measure body fat.
Biggest Loser nutrition and exercise
The Biggest Loser diet features healthy foods and encourages getting lots of exercise. This approach builds strength, melts away unwanted pounds, and makes for a healthy combo that helps you make lasting changes to your eating and exercise habits. However, a recent study suggests the extreme diet and exercise regimen highlighted on the show can't be sustained in a real-life setting. With that in mind, perhaps Rachel will gain back just enough weight to reach a BMI of 18.5.
Rachel doesn't think she is too thin and is happy with her results. "I'm extremely proud of the way I lost the weigh. [...] "I followed the advice and supervision of the medical team at 'The Biggest Loser' the entire journey." (Los Angeles Times)
During her weight loss journey with Biggest Loser, Rachel ate 1600 calories a day but exercised "a ton." Now that she has lost her unwanted weight, she will need to find the right combination of calories in and calories burned to find/maintain her ideal weight. Right now she's not answering questions about whether she lost too much weight.
What do you think? Is Rachel Frederickson too thin?

Not every shoe we post here has to be a bedazzled, sky-high stiletto. Mostly because we don't all wear those every day. (If you do, God bless.) And a little bit because we like to remind ourselves that we live on a budget and you do too. These Amount heels ($35) are great for office wear and might even work for a date that you know you'll be doing a lot of walking on. But it's also important to note how deeply discounted they are. Once $115, they are now less than forty bucks.

The NBA's Surprising Last Minute Deals
After early-week blockbusters sent All-Stars Carmelo Anthony to the Knicks and Deron Williams to the Nets, it seemed inevitable that Thursday's NBA trading deadline would be anti-climactic. Instead, deadline day in the NBA saw a flurry of deals that went well beyond the usual deadline rituals of dud-contract re-gifting and headache-for-headache swaps. There was that, too, of course, most notably through the end of The Baron Davis Experiment for the Los Angeles Clippers. And although none of the league's biggest names were moved, several of Thursday's biggish deals could have a notably large impact on the way the NBA playoffs play out. From bruising Celtics big man Kendrick Perkins to human Swiss Army knife Shane Battier to the wildly athletic Gerald Wallace, a host of more-important-than-you-think players joined new teams in moves that could have sneaky, serious postseason implications.
Given his modest career numbers, it seems odd to tab Perkins, who was traded by the Boston Celtics to the Oklahoma City Thunder in a deal for forward Jeff Green, as the most important player dealt on Thursday. But in Perkins, whose grit and girth in the paint have always far outpaced his statistical worth, the Celtics traded a major part of their postseason success in years past. "Boston will be chasing a title with the same massive hole in the middle of their team," Ken Berger writes at CBS Sports. "The reason? Business. With their other four starters under contract to the tune of $57 million next season, there was going to be no money — no cap space in this unknown cap-space world — for [the] center whose physical and emotional presence might've won the title for Boston last June in Game 7 against the Lakers." In the Boston Globe, Bob Ryan laments the loss of Perkins, but argues that the bold move was one Boston had to make.
Both the Thunder and Celtics are looking to improve their postseason prospects, but the Memphis Grizzlies are just trying to get there. After a deal that would have sent guard O.J. Mayo to Chicago fell through, the Grizz dealt slow-developing big man Hasheem Thabeet and a package that included a lottery-protected draft pick to Houston for Shane Battier. In Battier, the Grizz received one of the league's best-respected teammates and defensive players, and a performer who was a popular member of the team for his first five NBA seasons. "Battier is on his way back to the city that never quite got over him," the Memphis Commercial Appeal's Geoff Calkins writes. "Can the playoffs be far behind?" For a Rockets team that came into the season with high hopes, Thursday was a day of letting go – both of Battier and fellow team-captain Aaron Brooks, who was dealt to Phoenix in another trade. In the Houston Chronicle, Jonathan Feigen describes the Houston side of the deal.
The Portland Trail Blazers, a team fighting for a playoff spot in the churning, competitive Western Conference, made what might have been the best-reviewed trade of the day in trading expiring contracts, draft picks and spare parts to Charlotte for athletic forward Gerald Wallace, an All-Star last season. "[Wallace] is a very solid star, not superstar," the Portland Oregonian's John Canzano writes. "But his arrival signals an end to the long parade of likable role players that Portland has fallen in love with so often. Stars win championships. Role players win hearts." At the very least, the slightly lower-wattage stars swapped on deadline day enlivened hope for a day or two. In February's dog days, that's not nothing.

Hockey general managers are no more or less inclined towards handing out lousy free agent deals than any other sports GM. But where the owners of baseball's worst contracts are gumming up the back end of bullpens across the land and the NFL's are simply cut loose thanks to their league's non-guaranteed deals, the NHL has exploited a loophole in its collective bargaining agreement to stash well-compensated misfits in the minor league AHL – out of sight, out of mind and, perhaps most importantly, off the salary cap. Which means that, for the players stuck with deals that are hideable but not tradeable, the AHL has become what Kevin Clark, in the Journal, describes as "hockey's version of a white-collar prison."
"There's nothing unusual about a millionaire baseball player doing a stint in the minors to retool his game or come back from an injury," Clark writes. "But hockey's minor leagues are a different animal: They exist mostly as a holding pen for journeymen and fringe prospects… This season, thanks to a little-known loophole in the league's labor deal and a growing pileup of phenomenally bad contracts, the AHL has seen something new: an influx of millionaires making as much as double the NHL's average salary."
* * *
More or less since he broke into the majors back in 2007, Joakim Soria has been a bright spot on some very dreary Kansas City Royals teams. Soria's reliably excellent work as the team's closer has earned him a pair of All-Star appearances and one singular nickname: "The Mexicutioner." While Soria is in no hurry to turn down another All-Star bid, the Mexican-born reliever took to Twitter earlier this week to ask his fans for a new and less violent nickname.
"Calling me the Mexicutioner, that's a bad thing," Soria explained to the Kansas City Star's Bob Dutton. "In a baseball way, it's not that bad. Really, it's a great thing. But I want to support my people. When people in Mexico watch TV to try to forget about all of the violence — and then they see the nickname 'Mexicutioner' — that's a bad thing."

Here at the Fix, we make no attempt to hide our admiration for Joe Posnanski, the hyper-prolific blogger/sportswriter whose work on topics ranging from Snuggies to the Super Bowl is routinely among the very best stuff written about that subject. But while just about everything Posnanski writes is worth reading, it's a special treat when he writes about Buck O'Neil, the late Negro League legend and baseball ambassador who was Posnanski's greatest subject – they collaborated on a very good book about O'Neil, baseball and other things – and good friend.
On the occasion of the Baseball Hall of Fame's first Buck O'Neil Award, which was issued to former executive Roland Hemond, Posnanski took to his blog to take a look back at O'Neil and what he was about, at the man who received the award bearing his name, and what that award really means. "Hemond broke down in tears when he won the award," Posnanski writes. "That's what the award should be about. That, I think, is what Buck O'Neil's life was about – it was about not letting wonderful moments and wonderful people drift away unremembered."
