The Institute considers applications for the Fellowship in Law Librarianship in respect of any area of law librarianship but welcomes in particular projects which relate to the following activities in which its own library is involved:
The continuing development of its collections particularly from jurisdictions outside the United Kingdom. This may include the development of co-operative links between libraries.
The continuing development of the provision of legal information in electronic form, particularly from the regions described above.
The generation of external funds, particularly with regard to the provision of information services to the legal profession.
Implementation and exploitation of the Innopac system in law libraries.
Archives of legal information in particular relating to legal education.
The duration of Fellowship is flexible but is normally between 2 and 6 months. Fellowships can consist of or include a period working with Institute library staff or be a period of research based in a research carrel.
The general terms of visiting fellowships and the application procedure are available here.
Applications are normally considered by the Research Committee and the Library Committee of the Institute in April preceding the academic year, October to September, in which the fellowship will be held. However, applications may be considered at any time of the year. Intending applicants may discuss their applications with the Librarian .

Bård Tuseth
E mail: email@example.com
Bård Tuseth's main research undertaking during his time at IALS has been an investigation into academic research support at major law libraries in and around London - looking particularly at facilities and services that are aimed at the need of academic researchers or of special use for this group. As part of his research he talked to key staff at the IALS Global Law Library, visited colleagues at City University Law Library, the Squire Law Library at Cambridge and the Bodleian Law Library at Oxford. These talks gave insight into research support services at these institutions and will yield an article where Bård will discuss different approaches to research support.
In addition Bård's time at IALS gave him the opportunity to work on his part of a forthcoming book on writing a masters thesis in law. The book is a collabortaive initiative with a Norwegian legal researcher and will be published by Universitetsforlaget in the spring of 2015.

During her fellowship, Cynthia provided assistance to BAILII, working on a methodology for compiling subject lists of leading cases in English law. She pursued independent research into current trends in citation to and reliance on non-traditional sources of authority in US appellate court opinions, exploring the extent to which these changes are reflective of overall trends in legal culture. Her article on Alaska law libraries, Law Libraries of "the Last Frontier", was published in Legal Information Management November 2004, pp 257-264. Cynthia Fellows was subsequently appointed Associate Research Fellow of the Institute and continues to work closely with the British and Irish Legal Information Institute at IALS , focusing on improving the usability of BAILII's interface and search engine.

USA (Wed., April 12, 9 p.m. ET)
You've got to love the USA Network. Whether it's a mystery starring Pamela Anderson as an evil twin or a horror story about killer kitty-cats, this cable channel is the place to turn to for wacky so-bad-they're-good TV movies. Which is what is so disappointing about this teleflick. The premise sounds promisingly cheesy: a cold fish of a doctor (Harley Jane Kozak) falls for a fun-loving android (Griffin Dunne) who teaches her to be more human.
Too bad this concept is played for drama instead of laughs. By the time The Android Affair turns into a chase movie with our heroes on the run from evil scientists, it's almost funny how seriously this movie takes itself.

Facebook (NASDAQ: FB ) recently announced it has reached 1 million advertisers significant. At least one commentator believes the social media giant may have gone too far with its effort to monetize its user base. Online advertising represents a delicate balance between the value provided to the advertiser and the tolerance and interest of the user.
In the video below, Fool.com contributor Doug Ehrman discusses the milestone for Facebook and the importance of finding a level of ad saturation that communicates the message without overly annoying users.
Though Facebook may have gone too far, social media continues to have huge potential. This incredible tech stock is growing twice as fast as Google and Facebook, and more than three times as fast as Amazon.com and Apple. Watch our jaw-dropping investor alert video today to find out why The Motley Fool's chief technology officer is putting $117,238 of his own money on the table, and why he's so confident this will be a huge winner in 2013 and beyond.

HP dv7-1245dx offers an attractive design, black and silver combination, an impressive battery life if you think this is a desktop replacement more and touch-sensitive media controls. But even so, the resolution of the display is quite low, so you can't really enjoy HD content. Because this is a more affordable entertainment laptop, with a big size as well, you can easily consider it for replacing your desktop and for managing your daily tasks.
Just don't expect high-performance from the laptop, because the low price has to have a place to start. With Altec Lansing speakers, HDMI output and mirror-finish accents, passionate of media content will feel like home with this HP Pavilion system.
Priced around $699, this is one of the cheapest largest laptop you can get on the market. And why the low price? It all stands in the performance of the laptop, due to the AMD Turion X2 Dual-Core processor, you will not be able to run any intensive applications or play your 3D games. Other technical parts include the 4GB DDR2 memory, 320GB hard drive, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3200 graphics, Windows Vista Premium and a weight of 7.3 pounds (without the AC adapter). HP is one company that likes being glossy and most of their systems come with a glare casing. This does help you pop out of the crowd and makes you special. The long hinge will manage to hold the screen into place, so no flimsy display in this case. But because of the mirror-like design, the touch pad suffers from less smoother gliding experience. And you will have to watch out against fingerprints and smudges, as there will definitely be some.
Moreover, the overall look of the laptop is impressive, despite the low price. You will also like the touch-sensitive media controls above the keyboard, which will glow depending on the status of some features, such as Wi-Fi for example. There is also the volume slider and when the laptop is in sleep mode, the lights vanish off. The widescreen measures 17" and has a native resolution of 1440×900, which is pretty low in case you want to enjoy HD content at high-quality. The screen suffers from glare, which will be distracting if you plan on working on your laptop outside the house, in the open. But inside, you can adjust the lighting or place the computer in an area with less brightness. And let's mention the ports as well, HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx provides VGA, HDMI, stereo speakers, headphone and microphone jacks, four USB ports, SD card reader, Wi-Fi, Ethernet and the LightScribe DVD Burner.
To conclude, the laptops' performance is suitable for multitasking and for handling basic tasks, but not serious video editing and so on. If you just need it for these tasks, you can surely count on it. As for the battery life, it pulled out around 3 hours and 20 minutes, which is quite impressive for a system of this size. The standard warranty is for one year and you also get support via telephone and real-time chat on their main website. On the website you can also find drivers for download, manuals and any other useful information about your product.

Harris Takes on "Proof of Heaven"
Many years ago, when I was on the faculty at NKU, I was the token English professor/person-who-had-not-died/atheist for a symposium on Near Death Experiences organized by art professor Howard Storm. I gave a talk called "Your Holiest Inspiration: Literature and the Experience of Death."
So the Newsweek cover story certainly caught my eye, as did the publication of Eben Alexander's book, but only today, when MSNBC's The Cycle had Alexander on as guest did I become familiar with the nature of his "proof."
Of course, the always brilliant Sam Harris had already dismantled it.

The company will bring its 4G LTE network, which Verizon says averages data download rates of 5 to 12 megabits per second and upload rates of 2 to 5 Mbps, to 27 new markets and expand it in 44 markets across the country this week, according to a news release.
Verizon announced on April 4 that it would launch the network in Auburn and Tuscaloosa over the coming weeks. The company currently offers 4G LTE coverage in Birmingham, Decatur and Athens, Dothan and Enterprise, Huntsville, Mobile and Montgomery markets.
Jonathan LeCompte, president of the Alabama and Georgia region of Verizon Wireless, said in news releases that the company is excited to bring the network to area residents, college students and the hundreds of thousands of people that visit the campuses each year.
In Tuscaloosa, customers in Northport and Cottondale also will have access to the network, according to Verizon.
Verizon said in March that it invested $120 million in Alabama last year to enhance its network in more than 320 cities and towns.
According to Verizon, 4G LTE coverage will be available to more than 260 million people in more than 400 U.S. markets at the end of 2012.

This air filtration manufacturer needed a new navigation scheme that segments users and content, as well as drives incremental sales.
Like many industrial suppliers, Permatron had a very robust website, but visitors had a difficult time finding products that were right for them. Moreover, like most clients, Permatron wanted to manage their website internally with a simple-to-use content management system.
liQuidprint first crafted an information architecture blueprint, which organizes and indexes Web site data, so that users can quickly locate their desired information. The new navigation scheme segments users by product category and, based on this criteria, suggests available products to meet their needs. This technique also drives incremental sales.
liQuidprint then worked to migrate Permatron's product information and photography into a database-driven content management system. Permatron's staff now can easily incorporate new product additions and update current listings.
Finally, the site received a new contemporary graphic design that helps visitors browse without a specific destination.

The day after Boston Marathon bombings
Photo: /AP
This image from a Federal Bureau of Investigation and Department of Homeland Security joint bulletin issued to law enforcement and obtained by The Associated Press, shows the remains of a pressure cooker that the FBI says was part of one of the bombs that exploded during the Boston Marathon. The FBI says it has evidence that indicates one of the bombs was contained in a pressure cooker with nails and ball bearings, and it was hidden in a backpack.

The state has shut down its emergency heating oil hotline, saying Fred Fuller Oil has improved its delivery response times.
State officials said more than 1,850 customers called the hotline from Tuesday through Sunday. Customers complained that Fred Fuller Oil was late on deliveries, and the company said phone problems exacerbated the problem.
"Protecting the health and safety of New Hampshire's residents is our most important responsibility, and through the emergency hotline, we were able to provide support to those most at risk," said Gov. Maggie Hassan.
The governor's office said customers on pre-buy or monthly contracts who have experienced delays may want to file a complaint with the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Bureau.
Complaints can be filed online through the attorney general's website. <http://www.doj.nh.gov/consumer/complaints/index.htm>. Consumers can also request a complaint form by calling the consumer hotline at 888-468-4454.

D ARLA JACKSON, 32, of Fishtown, is owner and general manager of the Philadelphia Sculpture Gym. Jackson, a Moore College of Art & Design grad and a sculptor, won a $20,000 Knight Arts Challenge grant in 2011 to raise money to open the facility on Frankford Avenue near Berks Street. It provides 7,500 square feet of space where dues-paying members have access to band saws, drill presses and welding equipment.
Q: How'd the biz idea originate?
A: I thought it would be great if we had space where everybody shared equipment and paid monthly memberships. I pitched the idea to the Knight Arts Challenge in October 2010.

Overrated & underrated power
Which boxers of today do you thinks power is overrated? And which underrated? Preferable give a reason why!
Overrated - Angulo!
Slow, poor technique, couldn't knock a vvank out tbf
Canelo - More undetermined tbh, what guy his own size has he stopped?
Darren Barker - Good technique, precision puncher, spiteful puncher IMO
Floyd - Same as above. Very good power at the lower weights, think he still has plenty at the higher weights and enough to command respect.
Fast, accurate sharpshooter.
Would add Marquez but I think now people realise, timing is everything.
Timing beats speed. Timing beats power. Timing is everything not just in boxing but in life in general.

Overrated -
Rigondeaux - he's defensive and appears to have solid power, he's still untested against an elite opponent and has a suspect chin yet he's made out to be an elite beast
Floyd - Resume above 135 oozes of cherry picking, carefully selected opponents. only fought 3-4 times since 2007 yet he's still the #1 P4P.
Canelo - he has literally done nothing but beat oversized or over matched opponents. His title is a complete joke.
Broner - Beat Perez got a gift against PDL, failed to make weight against Escobedo. Beat up a good lightweight and he's placed in the top 5 or 6 P4Ps? above Mares, Froch, Guerrero etc. He's the definition of overrated.
Underrated -
Marquez - One of the best combination punchers of all time. Even better than Joe Louis (who I hold in high regard), He' still regarded as a top P4P even at almost 40. His status when compared to other fighters comes off as underrated to me. Infact all Floyd's fan base know him for is losing a UD to Floyd. That's it, that's his entire career to them. IMO his legacy is underrated.. All every says is he's slow, he's never had defense, power, or that he's flat footed. Mainly because they've only seen fights he had when he was in his mid to late 30's People forget he was young at one point
Castillo - since he's still fighting i'll include him, although he may not be much currently. His legacy gets underrated, I still consider him the greatest LW since Whitaker.
Mares - He's beaten top opponent after top opponent, yet all people talk about are the low blows. He's not even in the top 10 P4P's despite fighters with weaker resumes like Broner being in the top 5.
Guerrero - If you've followed him for a while you'll know how capable and skilled he really is. He's the type of fighter that can compete with anyone. If he's out gunned, or they're faster he'll adjust even if it's going outside of his comfort zone which we don't see alot of fighters do.
Froch - Despite a lose to Ward he's still a top fighter and should be in the top 10 P4P's

floyd never had power even at 130. do people even watch his fights? almost all his stoppages there were corner stoppages. when you are hitting a guy over and over and are unable to get him out of there you don't have much power.

Overrated -
Canelo - all HBO talks about is his amazing mystical power..... but it's always against smaller fighters some of which he couldn't even put away
Garcia - Knocking out a fighter that had his best days SFW and below, and another that has a suspect chin doesn't = a monster puncher. His power is an illusion.
Mikey Garcia - Patient precious puncher, Won't be surprised if he stops Salido
Salido - His overhand right doesn't get the respect it deserves.
Floyd - Floyd's power gets underrated, specially in the heavier weights he did hurt Mosley, and almost stopped Cotto. He might not be a monster puncher but his precise punching and counter punching garner respectable power

Realities on the ground lead us to question their effectiveness, at least in the way measures have been implemented. The focus of this conference is the question of the model of the state that is being "reformed" rather than on the methods of state reform or state-building.
While international and national actors are involved in the building of the state, local and regional actors are also involved in forming governance structures. They have received much less attention. The authorities taking over when states fail, and ultimately collapse, include the actors of war, such as military faction leaders; but they also include remnants of the former state administration, revitalized traditional authorities, religious courts, local businessmen, etc., who continue or begin to exercise authority as "functional equivalents" of the former state, at times aspiring to replace it. What is the legitimacy of those actors and how does it relate to the national level?
In addition to the question of political legitimacy of non-institutional actors, the conference will further focus on the issue of identity formation in relation to the state and the limits of state sovereignty. The conference will conclude with a reflection on research methodology, a discussion about how academic and policy-oriented research can be complementary in responding to the remaining questions that will arise during the conference.

Whether to take advantage of lucrative tax breaks or cheaper rents, high-profile businesses have relocated to Jersey City in recent years, and not just to the gleaming Downtown skyscrapers.
Goya Foods, of Secaucus, is building an enormous headquarters on County Road. Wholesale meat purveyor DeBragga & Spitler moved to Amity Street from Manhattan's meatpacking district in 2011.
And now Forbes Media is planning to cross the Hudson River and make its home in the Newport section.
Forbes' move will give Jersey City more visibility and prestige, and may spark newfound interest from other Manhattan firms, according to Barna Donovan, a communications professor at Saint Peter's University.
"Since Forbes is a leading chronicler of business and finance news, wherever Forbes moves to must obviously be — in the eyes of business watchers — an important center of commerce and finance," Donovan told The Jersey Journal.
Forbes, best known for publishing lists of the world's richest people, will occupy a 92,720-square-foot space on two floors of 499 Washington Blvd., near the Newport PATH station. The media company will relocate there from its Greenwich Village headquarters by the end of this year.
Forbes has committed to spending 10 years in Jersey City, for which it will receive a $27 million Grow New Jersey tax grant because of its pledge to bring at least 350 jobs to the state.
Mayor Steve Fulop hailed Forbes' decision, and sounded confident that other companies will follow suit.
Donovan said because of the changing nature of the publishing industry, media giants who may have been loath to leave Manhattan could reconsider, especially knowing Forbes can operate on this side of the Hudson River.
"Where media professionals do most of their work off of portable communication technologies like smart phones and tablets anyway, using texts, social media or Skype to communicate with sources and business partners, being physically located in New York is no longer crucial," he said. "A move like this by Forbes is very significant and sure to set an important precedent."

WHEN news broke of Marie Christine von Reibtnitz's engagement to Prince Michael of Kent, the Queen is said to have commented: "She sounds far too grand for us."
In a New York restaurant this week, five wealthy, black diners discovered just how grand - and allegedly racist - the Czech-born daughter of a Nazi SS soldier could be.
Outraged by their self-confessed "loud carrying on", Princess Michael angrily told them to be quiet and, when they did not, she allegedly made a remark that stunned the restaurant.
Waving her fist, she is accused of telling the diners: "You need to go back to the colonies!"
The 59-year-old Royal - nicknamed "Princess Pushy" - denies making the comment, reportedly claiming, when confronted by outraged television reporter Nicole Young, that she had told them to "remember the colonies", a comment she chose not to explain in full at the time.
Her spokesman insisted she had not said anything racist, adding that the princess's account of events was backed by the host of her dinner party.
But the owner of Da Silvano restaurant was said to have apologised to the five diners - Merv Matheson,an investment banker, Philmore Anderson, a music industry chief, the television reporter AJ Callaway, Tamera Reynolds, an entertainment lawyer, and Ms Young, who is a fashion correspondent and PR consultant.
The princess's behaviour on Monday night at Da Silvano on New York's Sixth Avenue left Ms Young and her friends "stupefied".
Ms Young said: "Maybe I've been lucky, but I've never run into that kind of racism in my life. To think that this kind of thing could happen here — in 2004. We obviously have not come as far as we think we have.
"We were loud, laughing and carrying on. But it's Da Silvano, it's a boisterous place."
Mr Matheson told The Scotsman that he and his four friends were regulars at the restaurant.
They had been there for about an hour and a half when Princess Michael's party came in just before 10pm and sat down at an adjacent table.
"Obviously she felt we were a little bit loud, but she didn't ask us to quiet down. She took her fist, banged it on the table and pretty much told us to shut up," he said.
Mr Matheson said he spoke to the princess - at this point he did not know who she was; the group only discovered her identity later - and said she could have simply asked them politely or requested to be moved to another table.
"About ten or 15 minutes later she asked the waiter to move her.
"As she was leaving she said 'You guys need to go back to the colonies'.
"We all had to think about it for a minute when we realised what she actually said.
"It was like, 'Wow, this is unbelievable'. It's not something you say to anyone.
"Nicole went over and told her how we felt and that was it."
Ms Young explained: "I said, 'I just came to let you know that what you said to us before was completely disgusting, despicable and out of line - go back to the colonies ...?' She looked up at me and said, 'I didn't say go back to the colonies, I said, 'remember the colonies'.
"And I'm, like, remember what about the colonies? She said 'In the days of the colonies, there were rules that were very good'.
"And I said 'What rules in particular are you referring to?' She goes, 'Just think about it'."
After that confrontation, the princess tried to summon Mr Marchetto and a waiter, saying: "You need to remove her from this table."
However, Ms Young left voluntarily and the incident ended.
The five diners' version of events was disputed by Simon Astaire, a public relations expert hired by the Kents to help improve their image in 2002.
Mr Astaire said: "Princess Michael went with two male friends for dinner after the cinema. She sat down. The table next to her was very loud and abusive to the extent that the host complained to the manager. It continued over the evening.
"The host complained, asked them to quieten down, which they did not. Then the host suggested they move tables.
"Any suggestion she made a racist comment is simply untrue. She did not make a racist comment."
Mr Marchetto told The Scotsman that he had not actually heard what the princess had said, but believed what his regular customers - who never caused trouble at the restaurant - had told him.
"There were five people there. I believed it. It's not something that you make up," he said.
Princess Michael was in the United States to attend the graduation of her daughter, Lady Gabriella Windsor, from Brown University.
Royals on the offensive
PRINCESS Michael of Kent ranks alongside the Duke of Edinburgh in terms of her ability to offend, insult and generally annoy sections of the population.
Some might think a Royal whose father was in the SS during the Second World War would keep her head down, but her habit of emphasising her status for personal gain has won her the nickname "Princess Pushy".
Although her marriage in 1978 to Prince Michael was resisted by Buckingham Palace, she initially found an ally in Lord Mountbatten. But after he invited the couple to dinner, Mountbatten reportedly slipped a note to his secretary saying: "If that woman doesn't stop talking, I shall scream."
Princess Michael once let it be known that she "would go anywhere for a free meal" and there were damaging allegations that the couple were charging large fees as "Royals for hire". She also declared in a television interview that the Queen's corgis "should be shot" and shocked meat hygiene service inspectors when she announced at an awards dinner that for health reasons she no longer ate red meat.
The chairman of the Royal Society for the Promotion of Health attempted to repair the damage to the British meat industry - which was reeling from the BSE crisis - by offering to introduce the princess to the Master of the Worshipful Company of Butchers so he could "enlighten her", but she just smiled and shrugged her shoulders.
There were claims of plagiarism after she wrote a large coffee-table book about European princesses. And there were rumours of infidelity: she was once photographed wearing a bad wig as she left an alleged tryst.
Prince Philip's gaffes included telling a Briton he met in Hungary in 1993: "You can't have been here that long - you haven't got a pot belly"; asking a Scottish driving instructor in 1995: "How do you keep the natives off the booze long enough to pass the test?"; and telling British students in China in 1986: "If you stay here much longer you'll all be slitty-eyed."

Wade in the Water at Mayyim Hayyim
Well, I went to the water one day to pray.
As a Jewish woman who feels deeply rooted in her African- and Native-American family's heritage, the famous Negro spiritual "Wade in the Water" holds multiple and profound layers of visceral meaning for me. It was a central component of an alternative Rosh Hashanah ritual I created and observed in Washington, DC's Rock Creek Park a couple years ago. And a couple years before that, "Wade in the Water" was bittersweetly at the heart of a soft-spoken, yet powerful conversation between Alana, a dear friend of mine from college, her Hungarian-Jewish grandmother and me in her grandmother's home in Mayen, Germany.
The classic spiritual was originally among a number of songs used as vocal instructions sung in the cotton fields to help fugitive slaves navigate the treacherous, but ultimately liberating path of the Underground Railroad.
One night during a five-day layover in Germany in 2009, Alana shared with me that the "Wade in the Water" segment of Alvin Ailey's famed "Revelations" dance sequence was once playing on her grandmother's television. She explained to her grandmother, a Holocaust survivor, how enslaved African-Americans used the song to escape from slavery. After a few moments of silence, her grandmother began crying as she asked Alana, in German, "Why didn't we think to do that?" With Alana's permission, I gently broached the subject with her bubbe a couple days later. What ensued was one of the most meaningful conversations of my life.
Black people, my people, literally found their way to freedom through song. Similar to making aliyah or immersing oneself in the mikveh, song is a spiritual vehicle that guides and elevates both individuals and communities to higher ground. The Jewish people, also my people, are well-versed in spiritual elevation, as well as immersion. It is embedded in the mundane to mystical elements of our religion.
One of the nicest ways that spiritual immersion is still alive and thriving in the Boston area is found at Mayyim Hayyim. Now in its 10th year of existence, the Mayyim Hayyim Living Waters Mikveh and Paula Brody & Family Education Center is a community mikveh that has stayed true to its mission of reclaiming and reinventing one of Judaism's most ancient rituals—immersion in the mikveh. Mayyim Hayyim has brought this sacred tradition to life by encouraging its traditional, as well as creative contemporary spiritual use. Each year the center teaches thousands of interested visitors. And on a daily basis, it models how to make the mikveh a sacred space that is open and accessible to all Jews and those who are becoming Jews. This was the vision of Mayyim Hayyim founder and acclaimed author Anita Diamant.
As Mayyim Hayyim's founding executive director Aliza Kline once stated, "The explicit mission of Mayyim Hayyim is to provide a space that is warm and welcoming of the broadest sense of the Jewish community." In a world where not enough Jewish communal spaces fully embrace interfaith families, let alone the rest of the Jewish community's expansive diversity, the Newton-based non-profit stands in a distinctive category of its own. It has become a destination for interfaith families and Jews across the spectrum of observance and affiliation. Mayyim Hayyim actively welcomes interfaith, multiracial and LGBTQ members and families.
"Wade in the Water," along with many other songs and poetry from Jewish and other spiritual traditions are resources Mayyim Hayyim has available for visitors of their mikvehs to use as they feel inspired.
Whether you are undergoing conversion, a life cycle event or a personal journey of healing or transformation, I recommend you schedule a visit to Mayyim Hayyim Living Waters Mikveh.
5 Things I Hope Rebecca Ferguson Knows Before Starring in The Red Tent
If you haven't read Anita Diamant's bestselling novel, The Red Tent, here is some extra incentive. Lifetime is launching what they call an "epic movie event" on December 7, starring Rebecca Ferguson, Minnie Driver, Morena Baccarin and Debra Winger based on the book. Even if it doesn't go on your summer reading list, here are five fun facts that will make watching it even more fun. Did you know that:
1) The book was a sleeper until Diamant got the idea to send doomed-to-be-shredded copies of the novel to rabbis who then used it in their teachings and made it a worldwide phenomenon?
2) Diamant used the first chapters of the book of Genesis as a launching pad for her creativity, based in the silence of the character of Dina who is said to have been raped in Genesis, Ch. 34?
3) Goddess worship in the novel is based in scholarship of the biblical period? In fact, even the Torah itself tells us of the matriarch, Rachel, taking off with the household idols.
4) The Red Tent purposely gets the birth order of the tribes wrong? The author plays throughout the novel with the ideas of storytelling and authorship, maintaining that women were absent from the construction of the Torah and, therefore, left out of the telling of our history.
5) Countless midwifery communities have named themselves, The Red Tent, after the novel?
And now a bit of explanation.
The Rent Tent was published in 1997 with limited success, and within a few years went from being unheard of to a bestseller. What turned it into a book group phenomenon? Anita Diamant was well-known long before the novel for those of us who help people create Jewish life-cycle rituals. She wrote several how-to Jewish books that are the first ones I recommend when someone is planning a Jewish wedding, baby naming or thinking about conversion (The New Jewish Wedding Book, The New Jewish Baby Book). But then Diamant wrote her first novel, The Red Tent, an imaginative telling of the life of the matriarchs in the book of Genesis. When the book wasn't finding great success, the author got an idea. She sent copies of the book to Reform and Reconstructionist rabbis, many of whom knew her earlier work well, and later to women ministers and independent booksellers. Leaders found that the book opened up a much needed conversation about women in our texts and historical silence. Before long, no book group was without its Red Tent month. It became a bestseller.
You don't have to know the story of Genesis to appreciate the book. But many readers have found that they want to crack open a Torah for the first time in eons to distinguish what is actually written in the Torah about the matriarchs of Genesis and what is Diamant's creative retelling. She jumps off from the Genesis stories, only using them as a frame. But even the pieces she fabricated are largely based in research. Not only did she include details that come from traditional Jewish sources like the Midrash (see below), she based much of her story in research about the lives of women in the biblical period. She studied daily life in the region at that time, including ancient goddess worship, birthing rituals and midwifery, medicine and funeral practices.
The worship of gods and goddesses, for example, is rampant in her story which reflects what scholars know about near Eastern practice and is hinted at in the book of Genesis and the prophetic writings of the Torah. The matriarch, Sarah, is referred to as a priestess in The Red Tent, another gleaning from early feminist biblical scholarship. She gives names to women who are left unnamed in the Torah. She imagines that Dinah was following a tradition of being a midwife when the events of Genesis 34 unfold.
She once said of her novel, "Dinah is one of the silent women of the Bible. Her silence intrigued me…gave me a window. Where there was silence, I created three-hundred pages." [Cynthia Dettelbach, "Entering The Red Tent With Anita Diamant." The Cleveland Jewish News 74, no. 2(1999): 4] In her version, women tell their own stories and, at times, are frustrated at hearing them mis-told by the men in the family. She goes as far as to insinuate that the "writers" of the biblical tales made mistakes because women's voices were not involved in the construction or transmission of the Torah.
Within Jewish circles, there has been some controversy stirred by the novel about who is "allowed" to interpret and reinterpret Jewish texts. Diamant says she wrote a work of historical fiction, not midrash (a creative elaboration of the Torah, filling in the gaps in the Torah narratives), but still some argued that her work pretends to fit into that textual tradition dating back to the Rabbis of the 2nd-6th centuries BCE. Her response to one such opponent was that, "It is my birthright. My audacity is the Jewish approach to Scripture…Every word of Torah has seven hundred faces of God and six hundred meanings. There is no one correct interpretation of Scripture as Jews have made up stories…for centuries". [Joan Gross, "Jacob's Daughter Hits the Bigtime in 2001." The Jewish News Weekly of Northern California 105, no. 13 (2001): 40.]

|RP council OKs letters urging gun control
City becomes eighth in county to approve letters supporting curbs in gun violence
Rohnert Park's City Council unanimously approved sending their House of Representatives Democratic delegate, Mike Thompson, a letter of approval for his efforts with his Gun Violence Prevention Task Force in Washington.
They also approved sending a similar letter to U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D, Calif.) for her support on the Assault Weapons Regulatory Act of 2013.
All five council members were present.
Rohnert Park became the eighth and last of the nine cities in Sonoma County to back resolutions or letters to federal legislators urging curbs on gun violence.
Windsor was the only exception when three of their council members abstained on the vote and it failed.
The Brady Campaign of Sonoma County, local leaders of the anti-assault weapon, presented their program at the city council's Aug. 27 meeting, and Gina Belforte and Jake Mackenzie got council approval to put it on the Sept. 10 meeting agenda for discussion.
Mayor Pam Stafford said, "I chose not to put this resolution on the council agenda last month, but I approve of the options we've been presented." One of the options was "not to take action."
Added Stafford, "I do support gun control and hope Congress can do something about it."
She made the motion to support a letter to Thompson and Feinstein, and Amy Ahanotu seconded it.
"I'm happy to vote yes," said Ahanotu.
Mackenzie said, "I'm comfortable with sending letters to our Congress representatives. The council's not involved in any piece of legislation."
Belforte noted, "A large percentage of our nation is in favor of gun control."
Vice-Mayor Joe Callinan agreed.
Representing the Brady Committee (named after Jim Brady who was seriously wounded during the attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan in 1966) was Susan Moore, chairwoman, and Regina Brenner.
Moore said her next step is to bring the votes of the eight cities to the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors. She noted the supervisors have already expressed support of her committee's campaign.

Do Dallas Men Need Personal Shoppers? The Trunk Club Thinks So.
Joanna Van Vleck, left, and Brie Chapman want you to shop till they drop.
Men, do you love clothes but hate to shop? Are you stylish but lazy? Would you just prefer to have a couple of women do your shopping -- by which I mean, of course, women to whom you aren't married or related? If your answer is a resounding yup-yup, and you've got coin to burn in your cargo shorts, then Joanna Van Vleck and Brie Chapman have a swellegant idea for you: The Trunk Club, which bills itself as "a private men's clothing club that provides access to men's clothing, accessories, and must-haves from all over the world." And all you have to do to get access to these items is pay a membership fee and have a phone. Easy as that.
At the moment, the service isn't available in Dallas ... not yet. Right now, the twosome serve some 85 dudes in picturesque Bend, Oregon. But this afternoon, Entrepreneur.com reports that Van Vleck (who is yawning so wide you can look down his neck ... no, wait) and Chapman are at this very moment raising the dough-re-mi to bring their bidness here: "Having proven the model, they're now looking for capital to expand quickly into a selection of major markets: Portland and Dallas now, others very soon." If nothing else, my wife'll be thrilled. --Robert Wilonsky

El Presidente
Honestly I'm not sure if I've ever been more frustrated watching anything in my life. Just infuriating to watch those scumbag cats taking advantage of dogs good naturedness. Like dogs don't steal each others beds. They just don't have it in them. They can't comprehend it. They didn't even know that type of evil could exist in the world. All I can say is thank god they finally took back what was theirs at the end. Seriously I started weeping a little bit when dogs started winning. Felt like when Rocky cuts Drago in Rocky 4. You just want to stand up and scream and cheer.
PS – This guy is honestly just beside himself with shock, sadness and anger.

Pablo from Montgomery High School respondsto Chris Barreras
My habitat is round with a diameter of 1m and a height of 10cm.
The rats will be trained on Earth not to defecate or urinate in the dormitorios only in the bathroom area. After relieving themselves they will pass past the brush and carbon to clean themselves off.
The habitat will be made of transparent plexiglass with screen on the inside for them to hold onto. The bathroom area will have screen floor for wastes to pass through into waste tray below. The fans make sure that the wastes pass down into storage tray.
You put the animals in the habitat from the top with a glove box as in your pictures. In the dormitory area the screen will move to allow for easy entry. The lights and fans are powered by bateries.
Thank you for your comments.

This is the response recieved when you ask for an answer to a question
that has been aswered thousands of times already, in detail, all over the
net. Do you really think you are the first linux user to have to learn
how to build a custom kernel? Why should Grant repeat what he and others

write and post an answer to your question than search the web yourself.
You are lazy. Lazy linux users are not what linux needs.

You are lazy. You may be stupid too - I can't be certain, but you are

Vince and Janis Gill
With a Smooth-as-Springwater Tenor, Oklahoman Vince Gill Not Only Found Country Music Stardom, He Took Home a Sweetheart of the Rodeo
Marital discord was averted, happily, when the Judds walked off with the honors. "I don't think that's one I would like to have won," admits Vince, 34. Adds Janis, 37: "When you're both on the charts, you're competing with each other, and you can imagine what that does to a household."
After 11 years of marriage, the Gills know very well what it does. In the late '80s, Vince watched while Sweethearts of the Rodeo racked up five Top 10 country hits with their first LP and Janis flirted with big-time stardom. Now the Tony Lamas are on the other foot; the Sweethearts have been lonely hearts on the charts in recent years, while Gill has broken out with two hit LPs (When I Call Your Name and Pocket Full of Gold), a 1991 Grammy (for best country vocal performance by a male) and enough country-music trophies to stock a pawnshop window. Says Gill: "It's really hard to get both careers in sync."
Fact is, for the onetime California girl and the self-described "hillbilly from Oklahoma," personal harmony has been a challenge as well. "We are opposites in many, many ways," says Janis. "I listen to classical music, and he listens to bluegrass. He plays golf, and I sew. He's the most unorganized person you've ever seen, and I have to have it spotless or I can't be normal. He's laid back, and I'm stressed out. He's so relaxed he can slide down in a chair, but I always have to be doing something."
Born in Oklahoma City, Gill grew up the only child of a lawyer (now a judge) and his wife, a homemaker. Dad played amateur banjo and guitar, Mom played a mean harmonica, and Gill joined his first bluegrass band while still in high school. Moving to L.A. after graduating, he eventually hooked up with the country-rock group Pure Prairie League, and in 1980 sang the lead vocal on their hit "Let Me Love You Tonight."
By then, Janis Oliver, a native of Manhattan Beach, Calif., was already in L.A. performing with younger sister Kristine as Sweethearts of the Rodeo—having taken the name from a Byrds album. Daughters of a phone company employee and a homemaker, the girls had been duet partners since childhood. By high school, while friends were doing rock, "we were hooked on country," says Janis. "Anything to stand out."
One night in 1977, in a Redondo Beach, Calif., café, the Sweethearts were opening for Vince's band, and Vince and Janis passed each other on the stairway to the stage. "I caught her eye, and she caught my eye, but I don't think she liked my eyes as much as I liked hers," Vince says. "I was pretty smitten with her and asked her out for almost three years, but she never would go out with me. I guess I was a pretty big hillbilly to her."
"It just wasn't right then," says Janis, who already had a boyfriend and regarded Vince, then 19 to her 22, as a tad too young. But the pair became friends, she says, and "when the guy I was seeing and the girl he was seeing dumped us at the same time, we decided it might be a good time to give it a whirl. It didn't lake two weeks for us to see that it was serious."
Married in 1980, the couple moved to Nashville three years later. Soon afterward, Janis and Kristine were climbing the country charts, while Gill was releasing his own songs to little notice. Relegated to the background, he sang backup vocals on more than 150 recordings—for Emmylou Harris, McEntire, even Dire Straits—and he kept writing songs. Among them was the 1988 country hit "Everybody's Sweetheart"—a good-natured complaint about his wife's success. "It was just an attempt at humor, saying, 'She's everybody's sweetheart but mine,' " he says. "I wasn't whining."
Even so, the couple's out-of-sync success stories did cause difficulties. "I would say the most problems we had was when my career was taking off, because it happened so quickly," says Janis. "I was being pulled in a million different directions, and it was tough getting into the rhythm and the rhyme of a life like that. That's upsetting to a household, especially when your husband is trying to do the same thing."
While Gill struggled on, "I used to pray for hits for him, because he deserves it," Janis says. "But past that point, I really knew it would help [their marriage]." Gill, though, insists, "I was never bitter toward her for her success and never will be. I was probably frustrated for lack of my own, and that might have got perceived by her and other people as not taking it as I should."
With both singers now on the road about 125 days each year, their sole retreat is the two-story Georgian-style home outside Nashville that they share with daughter Jennifer, 9. A living room window frames a sweeping view of an adjoining golf course, and the home's interior displays the fruits of their success: Chippendale and Queen Anne furnishings, Oriental rugs and shelves lined with trophies.
Vince's come-to-life career, however, and Janis's efforts to jump-start the Sweethearts (they have a new album due this summer) have cut into their time with Jenny. "Our child probably has been the cement at times when things got tough and when maybe it might have been easier to say, 'I've had it,' " says Janis. A full-time nanny helps when both are on the road, and "I always tell her when I lay her down at night that when I'm not here with her, to feel her heart, and I'm inside there," Janis says. "I bring her things from the road, outfits, jewelry. My guilt feelings take over, and I come home and shower her with presents."
"She handles it better than we do," says Vince, who remembers breaking into tears at a songwriters' awards show in April after looking into the audience and realizing he was seeing Jenny for the first time in two months. "It stirred up a bunch of emotions," says Gill. "I know there are a lot of times she'd come home and I wouldn't be there."
Even at home, of course, work is never far away. The family room, where the two do most of their song-writing, is filled with sound systems, microphones and keyboards, but it's one place where they don't look for togetherness. The two have never written music together, says Vince. "We probably will, but it's tough enough. We don't need to be arguing about what should rhyme with what."

Microgaming's rapid rollout of mobile content continues with two new HTML5 games for January
Microgaming (www.microgaming.co.uk/mobile) is releasing two new games this month on its HTML5 platform. Centre Court and Isis are the latest slots to join Microgaming's mobile portfolio following success on the Casino platform.
Centre Court is a hugely popular video slot based on a tennis theme. It contains five reels with nine paylines comprising cutting-edge graphics and pitch-perfect sound effects. To capture all of the excitement of a grand slam tournament (such as the Australian Open which started this week) the slot features a smashing free spins bonus round which awards 18 free spins with a 1-5x multiplier.
Isis is an Ancient Egyptian inspired game with a legion of fans. This five reel, 25 payline slot displays spectacular icons such as bejewelled brooches and adorned amulets to heighten the game's theme. It has a range of features including the wild symbol, Isis, and the scatter symbol, Horus, which triggers the bonus round. The free spins feature offers the chance to win big, with up to 30 free spins and a 6x multiplier.
Both Centre Court and Isis are live today on Microgaming's HTML5 platform, compatible with almost any mobile and tablet, including Apple and Android devices.
Neill Whyte, Head of Product Channels at Microgaming, comments: "Following on from our aggressive mobile strategy in 2013, we are continuing our rapid rollout of HTML5 games this year. However it's not just about quantity, the quality is also paramount, and we aim to deliver the highest calibre of content to mobile players. Centre Court and Isis are both prime examples of this and we have no doubt that they will be as popular on the HTML5 platform as they have been in Casino."
