This book describes the results of research
conducted in a domestic violence shelter in New York
City. The effectiveness of Sanctuary, a milieu
therapy model that integrates trauma recovery and
social justice empowerment, was the primary focus of
the study. The broader aim was to describe the
strengths, needs, resiliency, and impact of
interpersonal trauma on the women who resided in the
shelter. All who participated were very
enthusiastic. These women who had been silenced
by abusive partners, marginalized by a social
service system that did not adequately meet their
needs, and rendered invisible by a society that did
not fully understand their plight, wanted their
voices heard and their stories understood. They were
all women of color, negotiating racism, poverty, and
violence in their homes and communities. They sought
safety, respite, and nonviolence. Since unconscious
systemic racism is form of social violence, it is
vital that it not be replicated in the shelter.
Therefore, the residents' experiences of racism and
the meaning of racial identity in their lives is
included, and efforts to work from an antiracist
framework are described.

MENTOR, Ohio -- Membership renewal at the Mentor Senior Center is slow, but Recreation Manager Renee Ochaya isn't worried.
"This is very normal because seniors may have not stopped in or thought about renewing," Ochaya said. "The way we do things is we still send out newsletters for a couple of months so to them they don't think about renewing unless they're signing up for a class or a program. Also, on the typical month, we probably have about 100 new people who haven't been a member before."
Membership is $7 annually for residents and $10 for non-residents. Last year's membership topped 4,600 seniors. Since 2008, the facility has enjoyed a 30 percent growth rate. Ochaya points to the fact 31 percent of Mentor residents are age 55 and older.
"We're twice as big as the next largest senior center in Lake County," Ochaya said. "Mentor, in particular, and Lake County is getting older. We have more and more people who are eligible each year."
The 15,000-square-foot facility provides monthly educational presentations aimed at helping seniors of all ages living independently or in assisted living. The Munson Road venue features a library, billiards room, computer room, exercise room with aerobic and strength training equipment, arts and crafts room, health service room, meeting rooms, kitchen, main hall with stage and reception area with double-face fireplace.
Despite the center's large size, Ochaya said, the facility is experiencing some growing pains. For example, on the average day at lunch, parking is a challenge with some seniors parking in a nearby fire station lot.
Membership brings in roughly $20,000 annually, which Ochaya said doesn't cover the facility's now bi-monthly newsletters. In addition to funding through the Lake County senior services levy, the center is mainly funded by the city.
"It's a huge thing that Mentor has decided to make its seniors important," Ochaya said. "That's really what it's come down to as they are putting the money into making it a nice place for people."
The Mentor Senior Center is at 8484 Munson Road, Mentor. For more information, call 440-974-5725.

A cow, destined for the slaughterhouse, escapes from an overturned transport vehicle. She evades capture for a month and survives on her own until finding a permanent home at an animal sanctuary with – surprise! – her new calf.
The story of Bella, the dairy cow whose life on the run following a hauler crash on U.S. 131 near Cedar Springs and subsequent happy ending captivated Press and MLive readers a year ago, sounds like a Disney movie waiting to happen.
For now, though, there's a YouTube video recounting her story and providing an update on her life since she was brought to the SASHA Farm Animal Sanctuary in Manchester. The clip marks the one-year anniversary of Bella's arrival there.
She was one of 26 cows in a hauler that overturned after its driver lost control in the early hours of July 22, 2010. Of the dozen cows that got loose in the moments following the accident, all but five were recovered and completed their journey to a Milwaukee slaughterhouse.
Bella is the luckiest of that bunch. One cow was hit by a semi-truck. Others were shot or found dead near the accident site. One disappeared.
After SASHA got permission to take custody of any at-large cows, Bella, a brown-and-white Holstein, remained elusive. SASHA staff received several tips that did not pan out, but eventually volunteers lured her into a barn, and she was transported to the sanctuary, which is near Ann Arbor, after a month on the lam.
Staff said Bella was slow to adjust to her new home and was unusually ornery – the video shows her charging at volunteers repeatedly.
"Her temperament was a little more intense than we're used to with dairy cows," said SASHA operations manager Amanda Hitt. "She was one of the fiercest dairy cows I've met."
Staff suspected, correctly, that Bella was pregnant. In late September, she gave birth to a male calf, who was named Mr. Rogers.
"It's amazing to me she was able to sustain a pregnancy through that," Hitt said.
Since then, mother and son have been inseparable – literally. When Mr. Rogers suffered a torn ligament in one of his legs in February, he was removed from the cow pasture for a night to receive veterinary care. Bella did not take this well.
The new mother cried all night, said Daniel Earle, a longtime SASHA volunteer who has since joined the staff and put together the video now circulating online.
"When I came in that morning, all I heard was this bellowing," he said.
Part of the video shows Bella and Mr. Rogers' happy reunion. Their lives since then have been peaceful, Earle said. Bella and Mr. Rogers appear happy in their pasture, where about a dozen other cows live. (SASHA is a sanctuary for farm and domestic animals that are unwanted, neglected or abused.)
Most people don't think about the animals that are used for food, Earle said. But once in a while a story causes people to see their relationship with farm animals in a differently light, however briefly.
For example, Bella is not even the most famous AWOL cow to retire at SASHA. That title belongs to Jefferson, a steer whose escape from a slaughterhouse-bound truck in Detroit and romp down a busy Jefferson Avenue made national news in 2003.
"If 50 animals escape, nobody really cares, but if one or two get loose, people get behind it," Earle said.
"Once there's an opportunity to get to know one of these animals as a being with a personality and interests and the ability to suffer, it becomes far more interesting to people."

Type: Feature Request
Status: Resolved (View Workflow)
Priority: Minor
Resolution: Out of Date
Affects Version/s: 4.2.0.Final
Fix Version/s: None
Component/s: component
Hi there,
First of all, sorry for all native English speakers, maybe your eyes will suffer from my grammar...
A few days ago, I tried to use Bootstrap with JSF and faced quite an issue by not having any "data-*" attributes in JSF composents. Since Bootstrap, and more generally HTML5, relies a lot on this type of attribute, I was thinking it would be great to have them in JSF.
My first tought was to propose the idea to RichFaces but then I aimed directly to JSF spec and here we are : http://java.net/jira/browse/JAVASERVERFACES_SPEC_PUBLIC-1089
Still, if you are okay for it, it would be great to discuss about this issue (maybe during a RichFaces meeting) in order to propose something more documented than just an idea to JSF spec. I could try to do that alone, but having feedback from JSF experts would be really better and result in more precise and clever proposal.
So far, here are my thoughts about the problem :
1) Only one new attribute "data" in JSF tags but it will create several "data-*" attributs in the HTML tag rendered depending on its value.
2) Using JSON format to provide all key => value pairs. For example :
data="{key1:'value1', key2:'value2'}"
will generate data-key1="value1" data-key2="value2" in the HTML tag.
3) Nesting attributes is allowed :
data="{key1:{sub1:'value11',sub2:'value12'}, key2:'value2'}"
will generate data-key1-sub1="value11" data-key1-sub2="value12" data-key2="value2"
4) Wait, that means there is no way to have both data-key1="value1" and data-key1-sub1="value11" since "key1" key can only have one value : a real value (like "value1") or an array for nesting purpose (like
I think the best way to solve this is to have a specific key that will add no suffix even in a nested array. Let's call this key 'nil' or 'null' or wathever. So
data="{key1:{nil:'value1', sub1:'value11', sub2:'value12'}}
would generate data-key1="value1" data-key1-sub1="value11" data-key1-sub2="value12"
Warning : this special key should no accept an array as value. Or conflicts would appears really quickly. Like having :
data="{key1:{nil:{sub1:'value1'}, sub1:'value2'}}"
would generate data-key1-sub1="value1" data-key1-sub1="value2"... Error !
5) Of course, EL is allowed inside the JSON format. So, this is correct:
data="{key1:{sub1:'#{bean.subvalue1}',sub2:'value12'}, key2:'#{bean.value2}'}"
The return type of the EL must be String. But it can be plain String for a real value or an array in JSON format for nesting purpose.
If bean.subvalue1 = "value11" and {{bean.value2 = "{sub1:'value21'}
"}}, then the precedent example will generate : data-key1-sub1="value11" data-key1-sub2="value12" data-key2-sub1="value21"
6) That was the first part. Next, what about a more Java centric approach ? "data" attribut could also accept a Map<String, Object> as value. For each Entry<String,Object>, it would add the String key as a suffix of "data" and calling Object#toString() method for the value. Only exception : if Object is an instance of Map, then it will nest the Map. The special key for non-suffix adding could be null value or an empty String.
7) Perhaps, also, try to do combos ! Like having
where bean.value is a Map<String,Object> that should be interpreted as a JSON array for nesting purpose.
8) Or combo fusion ! Having the possibility to add several entry point on the "data" attribute, separated by whitespace, before merging them all.
For exemple, having :
data="#{bean.jsonArray} #{bean.firstMap} #{bean.secondMap}"
where bean.jsonArray is a String with JSON format, and bean.firstMap and bean.secondMap are Map<String,Object>. But it would be open door to unique attribute name conflicts.
That's all. I'm really looking forward to any feedback or brainstorming in Irc. Maybe, just another idea, if I have time (or anyone else), try to submit some code doing that to RichFaces. It could help people who are using RichFaces 4 but won't be able to migrate to JSF 2.2 yet and still need "data-*" attributes.
Thanks for reading.

We can easily achieve CSS-looking syntax:
data="key1: 'value1'; key2: 'value2'"
with making starting{ and ending }
symbols optional.
Paul, are there any other frameworks, which allows you to use JSON to define data-* attributes?
I'm curious if nesting attributes is common requirement. Could you point to some use case?
Thanks a lot for the better formatting Lukáš.
HAML syntax is using quite a similar approach. It's not exactly JSON, but not far away. For example, having :
%a{:data => {:tooltip => "A tooltip", :properties => {:effect => "fade", :positon => "bottom"} } }
will generate :

See reference documentation : http://haml-lang.com/docs/yardoc/file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#html5_custom_data_attributes
I don't know any other framework / syntax using JSON in "data" attribute so far.
I guess nesting attributes are not the most important part. But still, can be great if you use the .data() method of jQuery (see : http://api.jquery.com/data/ ) since it will split all your "data-*" attributes around "-" caracter and make nested arrays.
Also, it would allow you to write :
data="key1: #{bean.allKey1subProperties}"
Thanks Paul, it means that some people might be already familiar with the syntax.
I would like have syntax as close as possible to other available implementations.
The best would be reuse current parsers.
In RichFaces, we already have JSON generator/parser, which could be reused.
I'm thinking for which components we should actually enable support of data attributes.
Should it be generically any components?
Does it actually make sense to attach data-* e.g. to rich:calendar?
Paul, what are your thoughts?
Since this type of attribute can be use for nearly anything, I think it would be hard to be sure that a component will never need such an attribute. Even the rich:calendar might need it for tooltip purpose using Bootstrap for example.
The only components that might never need them are components that don't have any direct HTML generated (like a4j:repeat or a4j:poll) since the only purpose of the JSF "data" attribute would be to generate "data-*" attributes in the corresponding HTML tag. No HTML tag generated means no "data-*" attributes means no need for JSF "data" attribute.
I agree with using current parsers if it's enough for what we want. I'm thinking about supporting EL and, maybe, using Map.
Considering we should allow to attach data attribute nearly to any component, we could solve it generically: let CDK to generate data attribute to each component.
But CDK don't know on which place in the generated DOM should be data attributes placed. It doesn't have to be root of the component's DOM.
Thus we should attach the data attributes specifically, but serve them in unified manner - using newly introduced CDK attribute e.g. cdk:unfoldDataAttribute.

the attribute could be introduced to component code simply by extending interface, e.g. DataAttribute:
abstract class AbstractMyComponent implements DataAttribute {
// or via another data attribute
public abstract Object getAnotherData();
interface DataAttribute {
Object getData();
the type of Object could be actually MethodExpression, String, or some JSON object (TBD).
We were discussing this idea on team meeting 2012-04-17, see 3. "data-* attributes in JSF" in minutes [1].
We agreed on starting with a prototype: a simple sandbox input component, where we can try out some possibilities.
[1] http://transcripts.jboss.org/meeting/irc.freenode.org/richfaces/2012/richfaces.2012-04-17-14.00.html
AGREED: we will wait on the JSF support for data-* attributes (bleathem, 17:18:21)

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A vintage journal and scrapbook discovered in the garage of deceased World War II veteran William Klapach, provides a look at the great extent members of the Richmond County American Legion and the women of the American Legion Auxiliary went to to visit, cheer, and raise funds to support borough veterans -- whether they returned from battle or didn't -- and their families.
An entry from April of 1928 describes how "Legion Women Cheer the Sick."
Members of six posts "entertained and served tea, home-made cakes, candy, and cigarettes to the patients at the Marine Hospital in Stapleton Sunday afternoon." The hospital is known today as Bayley-Seton Hospital.
Another entry details the Legion's annual "Poppy sale" fund-raiser.
"The sale of poppies by the American Legion will start tomorrow and continue through Memorial Day," the entry reads. It explains how wearing a red poppy symbolized those who died in World War I, and how the Legion used the proceeds "for welfare work in taking care of World War I needy families and the men and women who served in the World War who are still in hospitals."
These weren't the only activities that these support groups employed to raise cash. Throughout the 1920s and even into the early years of the Great Depression, they held covered suppers, covered luncheons, masquerade balls, and card parties.
Let us know how you support veterans and their families in the 21st century by posting a comment to this story on SILive.com.
In our next installment, we'll show you how elaborate Legion balls and galas to support veterans were among the highlights of the borough's social scene in the 1920s.

Final Regular Season Show for Stock Seat Team (January 18, 2015)
The Briton stock seat riders returned a few days early from winter break in order to compete at the double-header show hosted by Michigan State University on January 18. Ten teams competed in this final regular season show, and in the end the Albion team came away in fourth place in the morning show and third place in the afternoon show.
There were many notable finishes, including the following:
1st place: Morgan Carey (open and reining), Kristine Mussell (novice), and Danielle Townsend (novice).
2nd place: Megan Winkler (walk-trot), Taylor Sandberg (novice x 2), Brooke Viele (advanced), Elle Root (open and reining), Morgan Carey (open), Allison Voorhess (advanced), and Heather Conner (intermediate II).
3rd place: Kate Sears (novice), Kristine Mussell (novice), Elle Root (open), Megan McNeil (open), and Abby Voglewede (intermediate II).
A main highlight was that two more riders qualified to compete at the Regional Championships. Brooke Viele (Midland / H.H. Dow) and Jordan McGinn (Royal Oak / Shrine) will join the other eight Albion team members who will vie at Regionals to go onto compete at Semi-Finals from there. Regionals will be held on February 15 at the Michigan State University pavilion.

Lolo Ferrari, real name Eve Valois, was born to a well to do family in La Baule, France. Her father left the family when Lolo was young and her mother never got over it. She didn't wallow in pity though but turned her hate on her daughter. Lolo had said in many interviews that her mother constantly called her names and whipped her - saying she was worthless and no man would ever love her. Lolo took her mothers ravings too heart and group up wanting to be someone else.
In 1987, Lolo who had already done a few modelling jobs met her future husband Eric Vigne. Within a year they were married and he began to mold the all too willing teen into a money making side show. She changed her name to Lolo (which is french slang for tits) Ferrari (the car company sued and lost) and began having plastic surgery which fed her desire to be someone else and her husbands desire to make money off of her. First was her lips, then nose and eyes then her breasts. Her husband designed the massive wonders and it took a few years to find a doctor willing to do the surgery. These aren't 'silly string' implants that slowly grow but silicone that stretch the skin. Lolo got hers as big as you possibly can before it starts ripping the skin. Her tits weighed around 6 pounds each and were hard as rocks.
Lolo's instability showed itself in other ways - her obsessive use of jewellry (she had panic attacks without it) and her need to cover her skin fully with makeup constantly. She constantly took pills and drank alcohol as well - basically she was an accident waiting to happen and the public loved her being the butt of all their jokes (much like they did with Anna Nicole Smith.
Lolo appeared on a European show called Eurotrash for awhile and released a couple of songs as well. On March 5 2000 she was found dead in her house by her husband. At first it was believed she had overdosed but later it was found she was suffocated. Theories began circulating about whether her husband killed her or she was suffocated by her own boobs. Her husband was arrested for not assisting his wife and held for a year before being released. The trial to find out exactly how Lolo died still hasn't happened.

Catterton Rides Wave of Exits to Close Two Funds
After posting $2.1 billion in returns to investors since 2012, consumer-focused private equity investor Catterton Partners has raised more than $2 billion for its buyout and growth investment vehicles.
The Greenwich, Conn., firm raised $1.6 billion for its latest buyout fund, Catterton Partners VII LP, and $400 million for its growth investment vehicle, Catterton Growth PartnersII LP. The general partnership added another $100 million in commitments to bring the total capital to $2.1 billion.
Catterton has had a string of exits from its previous funds. Recent hits include the public offerings of Noodles & Co., Restoration Hardware Holdings, and Bloomin' Brands Inc. Catterton this year sold Plum Organics to Campbell Soup Other recent sales include O.N.E. Coconut Water to PepsiCo Inc. and MonoSol LLC, a provider of chemical film for consumer packaged goods, to Japanese chemical company Kuraray Ltd.
Since it closed on $1.2 billion in 2006, Catterton's previous buyout fund, Catterton Partners VI LP, is tracking to a three times cash-on-cash return, said a one person familiar with the vehicle. The firm's previous growth fund, Catterton Growth Partners LP, closed in 2008 with $316 million in commitments.

Hi Everyone,
Kathy here with my version of the August Sketch Challenge. Here's the sketch Holly picked for us to work with:
I took some liberties with this sketch, first turning it, then using shapes rather than circles. That's the beauty of starting with a sketch, it gives you the basics and you can dress it up as much as you like! Here's my version:
My baby girl turned fourteen a few weeks ago, I'm really not sure where the time went! We had a small celebration on her actual birthday, with a party planned for later this month. She asked a couple of her closest friends over for some pizza and cake. They actually humored me and let me take a few pictures! The Echo Park Sweet Day collection was a perfect fit for my pictures!
I used a lot of the stickers from the Cardstock Element Stickers sheet to embellish my layout, including the big hot air balloon for my title. I added the alpha stickers to spell "fourteen" on the balloon.
Instead of circles, I cut a few doilies from some of my favorite papers using MFT Dienamics including the scallop doily, decorative doily and the dainty doily.
Finally, I also took on this month's challenge to add ribbon to a layout. Again, I took liberties with that challenge and used some fun Twinery Twine in Cantalope, Buttercream and Ocean.
That's all for me today! Be sure to drop by Right at Home to get your Echo Park Sweet Day as well as some of the new goodies that are coming in every day!

Sheriff's Detectives make arrest in Incline Village murder investigation
|Bob Harmon
Washoe County Sheriff's Office
Office 775-785-6235
Cell 775-722-5517
Washoe County Sheriff's Office Detectives arrested Joseph John Personeni, age 20, of Santa Rosa, California on one charge of Open Murder related to the December 22, 2013 death of Christopher Elliott in Incline Village.
Personeni was arrested without incident after turning himself in at the Washoe County Sheriff's Office on Thursday, August 21, 2014.
At approximately 4:00 a.m. on Sunday, December 22, 2013, Deputies from the Sheriff's Office Patrol Division responded to a report of a suspicious death on the 900 block of Northwood Boulevard in Incline Village. When Deputies arrived, they found a male adult identified as Christopher Elliott, age 46, deceased on the front porch of his residence.
According to investigators, Elliott and Personeni were known to each other and that an argument between the two escalated into a physical confrontation. After months of investigation by the Sheriff's Office and testing by the Washoe County Medical Examiner's Office, the cause of death was determined to be multiple blunt force trauma.
"We know that the Incline Village Community has had a great deal of interest in this case and are pleased to report that an arrest has been made and the case can now proceed through the justice system," Undersheriff Tim Kuzanek said.
Detectives continue to gather evidence in this case. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Washoe County Sheriff's Office Detective Division at (775) 328-3320 or call Secret Witness at (775) 322-4900.
The Washoe County Sheriff's Office celebrated 150 years of proud service and community partnership in 2011. Sheriff Chuck Allen is the 26th person elected to serve as the Sheriff of Washoe County. His office continues to be the only full service public safety agency operating within northern Nevada and is responsible for operating the consolidated detention facility, regional crime lab, Northern Nevada Regional Intelligence Center, Internet Crimes against Children Task Force, court security, service of civil process and traditional street patrols.

IT HAS been 31 years since the American Medical Association declared alcoholism to be within the scope of medical practice. Although great strides have been made in the diagnosis and management of this illness since then, a recent court case in the state of Michigan reminds us that continued vigilance is the cornerstone of progress. The case involves the denial of authorization of Michigan Medicaid funding for an orthotopic liver transplant in a young alcoholic man terminally ill with end-stage alcohol-related cirrhosis. There were no contraindications to surgery and sobriety was documented for at least six months; nevertheless, a request for funds was twice denied. Both of these decisions were based on a Michigan Department of Social Services requirement mandating a two-year period of abstinence before transplantation. Although the court challenge resulted in a favorable decision for the patient, he died of complications directly related to his liver disease before

~My Christmas Post~
~My Christmas Post~
Dec 25, 2004 4:17AM PST
HO! HO! HO! Christmas is here! Ok, honestly, I'm not that excited (like a 4 out of 10 on the excite-o-meter) and it's probably because, growing up, holidays were never big @ my home. I mean, I still look forward to the holidays, but I just don't get that whole "magical" feeling some people are filled with around this time (and never have). But I'll make sure it's in my kids lives though, when I become a father that is. I wanted to make this post a hell of a lot longer but I'm pressed for time so I'll just end it off by wishing all of you who do end up reading this... A MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Freeze-dried strawberries add a potent blast of flavor to these cookies without watering down the dough. You'll find them in the grocer's natural foods section, or sometimes in the toddler food aisle. To crush them, either pulse them in a food processor or place them in a plastic bag and run a rolling pin over them.
The dough for these cookies is easily prepped ahead of time. Follow the recipe up through forming the dough into logs. The logs can be refrigerated for up to a week, or frozen up to three months. If frozen, allow them to thaw at room temperature for 20 minutes before slicing and baking.
Start to finish: 3 hours 45 minutes (30 minutes active)
Makes 5 dozen cookies
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 egg yolks
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup crushed freeze-dried strawberries
1 cup chopped shelled pistachios
Sanding (coarse decorating) sugar
In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the butter, sugar, vanilla, baking powder and salt. Add the egg yolks and beat to combine. Stir in the flour until a dough just comes together. Stir in the strawberries and pistachios until evenly distributed.
Divide the dough in half. Using a sheet of waxed paper to help you work with the dough, shape each half into a log 1 1/2 inches around and 12 inches long. Wrap tightly and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
When ready to bake, heat the oven to 375 F.
Place the sanding sugar in a dinner plate. Unwrap one of the logs and roll it in the sugar to coat the sides. Using a paring knife, slice the log into about 30 rounds. To prevent the log from losing its shape, turn the log a little with each slice. Working in batches, arrange the slices on a baking sheet, leaving 1 inch between them.
Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Transfer to a rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining log.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.
Nutrition information per cookie: 70 calories; 35 calories from fat (50 percent of total calories); 4 g fat (2 g saturated; 0 g trans fats); 15 mg cholesterol; 7 g carbohydrate; 0 g fiber; 4 g sugar; 1 g protein; 15 mg sodium.

Course Description
The purpose of this course is to provide a structured environment in which students will undertake an analytical research and writing project. The senior thesis represents the culmination of each student's undergraduate education at Willamette University. As such, it should include the development of a clear, concise, coherent, and logical thesis argument, original research that goes beyond summaries of books and articles, analysis of competing claims, and a presentation format worthy of the student's advanced knowledge of social science methodologies. Research and writing of the senior thesis is designed to prepare Politics majors for post-undergraduate careers, whether they are in graduate school, education, law, business, government, public service, or other professional activities.
Student Learning Outcomes
At the conclusion of this course students should be able to write an extended research paper on a topic of each student's choosing analyzing some aspect of politics. In the research paper each student should effectively demonstrate the ability to:
1. Write well in terms of prose, grammar, and syntax.
2. Organize ideas in a logical progression of thoughts.
3. Answer an interesting "puzzle," the answer to which is not readily obvious or apparent.
4. State a clear and cogent thesis.
5. Review and cite relevant scholarly literature on the fundamental theoretical questions involved.
6. Support the paper's thesis with logical arguments
7. Present the paper's thesis balanced with an assessment of counter-arguments and/or competing explanations.
8. Include in the paper adequate and relevant evidence.
9. Maintain the paper's proper scope so that it is not too narrow or broad.
10. Adopt an appropriate tone of analysis (not partisanship).
Course OrganizationClass time and a regular classroom have been set aside for this course. However, we shall not necessarily meet as a group every week. In addition to semi-regular class meetings at the scheduled classroom hours, students will work closely with the instructor in development and completion of their senior theses. Students will be obligated to meet with the instructor on a regular basis to discuss their projects. Each student should come prepared for these meetings to present their work-in-progress including ongoing bibliographies, outlines, writing samples, etc. In turn, the instructor will provide both oral and written comments on student work, guidance on appropriate methodologies, and references to additional resource materials. Through this ongoing process of consultation, students will be expected to re-write drafts of their thesis until they have produced a quality piece of analysis.
Written and Oral AssignmentsIn addition to the final senior thesis, students will be asked to submit the following: A short preliminary overview of their proposed topic; a thesis prospectus (roughly 1500–3000 words) that outlines their research project along with an abstract (one-paragraph synopsis of the paper), literature review, and working bibliography; and official first, peer-editing, and second drafts of the paper.
GradingThe final grade will be determined as follows: Thesis prospectus (including abstract, literature review, and annotated bibliography) 10%; First draft of thesis 20%; Second draft 20%; Oral presentation 10%; Final draft of thesis 40%.
Given the collaborative nature of the senior thesis process, students are expected to participate in offering guidance and feedback to their peers. Therefore, students are expected to be prepared to discuss each other's work in progress. Peer editing is a requirement of this writing-centered class. In addition, attendance at other students' oral presentations is mandatory.
Electronic Devices in the Classroom
Laptop computers can assist in note taking and wireless Internet access on campus can aid in organized classroom exercises. However, laptop computers can also be a classroom distraction. Laptop computers are permitted in class for note taking purposes. Additionally, there may be occasions when the class as a whole may want to use the campus wireless network to look things up online. However, please refrain from checking e-mail, online chatting, websurfing, game playing, etc. during class. If you are observed doing so during class time, you will asked to no longer bring your laptop to class. Additionally, cell phones should be turned off prior to class.
Students requiring accommodation should contact the Office of Accessible Education Services (Student Success Hub in Matthews Hall, Phone: 503–370–6737) for consultation and to make the necessary arrangements.
Plagiarism and Cheating Policy
All writing assignments turned in must be your own written work. You may not copy, borrow, or appropriate other authors' work, unless you are doing so in the form of a cited quotation. All references to other authors' work must be fully documented in the form of citations and/or footnotes, and direct quotes must be indicated as such with quotation marks. Suspected cases of plagiarism will be pursued vigorously and appropriate penalties (including an "F" for the course) will be applied.
Plagiarism and Cheating Policy
Optional Course Texts
There are no assigned readings for this course aside from the materials students will collect in the course of their research. However, students might find one or more of the following writing and style manuals useful in preparing their theses. These books can be purchased from any online book retailer (e.g., Powell's, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc.). The purpose of these books is to provide guidance to students regarding the standards, mechanics, and goals of writing in the social sciences in general, and politics in specific. Purchase of any of these books is optional.

By Emily Le Coz/NEMS Daily Journal
TUPELO – Declining book donations and the lure of a spacious competitor across town slashed profits this year at the Lee County Library book shop.
Because the shop funnels money into the library – purchasing between new books and materials for patrons monthly – the situation presents a challenge for the cash-strapped entity.
Lee County Library, like all Mississippi public libraries, has suffered massive state budget cuts and must increasingly rely on outside support to make ends meet.
"We used to make $1,200 a month," said Dalton Anthony, president of the Friends of the Lee County Library, which runs the book shop. "Now more like $500 to $600."
That money goes directly into new purchases – mostly children's books – as well as equipment and other materials, like books on CD.
On Monday, Mem Leake perched inside the little glass room that houses the book shop, tucked in the corner of the library's first floor. He works two hours per day and said maybe a half dozen patrons wander in.
"We just need to make more people aware that we're here," he said. "People come in (the library), and very rarely do their eyes ever come over this way."
In addition to its nearly hidden location, the book shop faces competition – both in patrons and donations – from the new Goodwill Book Store on McCullough Boulevard.
Open since January 2010, the spacious used book store stacks shelf upon shelf of gently used merchandise at rock-bottom prices.
Carr said he shops both the Goodwill and the library, dropping in at both locations once or twice weekly. But he said he prefers spending his money with the library because it goes toward a local mission.
Actually, said Alexis Horton, the Goodwill Book Store's manager, profits raised through her store stay within north Mississippi to fund the agency's mission: Providing jobs for people who need them, but especially the disadvantaged and disabled.
Horton declined to say how many books the Goodwill receives or sells annually; Anthony said the library used to sell about 15,000 books a year. It now sells about 7,000.
"There are books staked in homes across north Mississippi that people kick aside or move over every month," Anthony said. "People need to bring them into the library."

No more pessimism for a couple of weeks
You maybe relieved, on the day the Chinese government introduces measures to cool stock markets resulting in sharp fall in the Shanghai Exchange, that I am going on leave for a couple of weeks.
Another Asian Financial Crisis, this time triggered by China?
After yesterday's optimism, yet more pessimism. I remember 1997. Don't underestimate the dange of contagion if China's stock market bubble does burst – as the likes of Alan Greenspan are predicting
Is this the death of cycles?
Quite possibly, yes, despite my instinctiive pessimism. Perhaps emerging markets such as China and India have reached such a critical mass that no matter how much capacity is brought on stream, it will be easily absorbed.
Or maybe some disaster …
Life gets more complicated in the Middle East
In the old days all you had to do was propose an ethane cracker with PE and MEG downstream and you were away.
But these days if you want to get feedstock, especially in Saudi, you need to offer something …
Watch out for the Black Swans and dump the consultants
The former trader turned professor, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, in his new book The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable warns against the danger of forecasting. Forecasting is, obviously, always based on what he know and not what we …
Capacity build-up to force volumes west…even from Asia?
There's been a lot of talk about the next wave of Middle East capacity being too great for Asia to absorb all the Asian volumes. Indeed, estimates abound over western growth being satisfied by the M-E over the next 3-5 …
Bad news for polyvinyl chloride?
And also a whole host of other chemicals if this article on the excellent All Roads Lead to China blog is correct and incentives that have encouraged the real estate boom are removed.
This serves of the dangers of overheating. …

Melissa Joan Hart talks about ABC Family's 'Melissa & Joey' and ends with a piece of advice we could all take to heart… (No pun intended.)
No, really. No pun intended. It didn't click until after I had typed it.
Anyway, it's looking like ABC is trying to hit gold by reviving some of their teen celebrities and throwing them into a new show. But, with wholesome faces like Melissa Joan Hart and Joey Lawrence, it seems a little less like a money grab.
I am glad to see Melissa back on television. She seems like a celebrity who is definitely on the saner side of the scales.

This document explains how to connect to the Student Storage Server (SSS) with Windows Vista or Windows 7 computers while on-campus. Please note that these instructions will not work off-campus. There are two ways to connect to your SSS folder. The first method, "Mapping a Network Drive", is appropriate for use on your own computer. The second method, "Connect to SSS Using Windows Explorer", can be used anywhere on campus.
You can map a network drive in Windows Vista or Windows 7 so that you can easily access your SSS space from your own computer.

What? And waste 10 dollars?
Edit:I kept on trying it again yesterday but it came up with the same message
You will need the Classic Controller
Connect Classic Controller to the P1 Wii Remote or press the A button to return to the Wii Menu.
That's funny, I tried a friends Gamecube controller on Mario 64 and it worked fine. Along w/ the Classic controller.
Maybe delete the game and redownload it?

You do not need to worry about paying for it again. The Wii by default will not be able to hold every single VC game that you will eventually download. You will have to delete games or get an SD card to store them all on it.
However, Nintendo keeps a record of the games that you downloaded on your Wii, so if you delete a game, and want to get it back, you can download the game you deleted again for free.
well, maybe nintendo is fixing this. either redownload it and get it working, or wait for nintendo to release an update
current obsessions::
Kingdom Hearts
Then you wouldnt be able to play as much. Instead of your mum sayin get off those videos games your ruining ur eyes shed say "Get off those video games its my turn to ruin my eyes"Originally Posted by m7ticalm
my mum used to play video games from time to time. mainly just retro NES games like solomon's key and super mario bros. 3. she also plays animal crossing for the GCN and now she's playin' wii sports. we got 2 wiis, though. one was supposed to be mine, one for the family, but it ended up that my dad got one, and i got stuck with the family wii. i hate sharing oh so much haha
current obsessions::
Kingdom Hearts
I re downloaded it but no go..............I might buy the classic controller.....or report this to nintendo
Well, I downloaded my Mario 64 after paying 1000 credits for it... and well, I got to the first water type level (kind of under ground with water and stuff) and the poles in this level don't seem to work good because well... I can go inside of them but can't actually hand on to them and climb up them (sometimes).
Also, the level also seems to have the water look (shiny with waves) above the water quite a bit but I don't know if this is suppose to be fog or if its glitched or something.
Well, just wondering if someone could help me out and tell me if and how I can fix this.
Its not a glitch.....the sun reflected from the waves shone up onto the sky
Im glad that my mum is usless at games and my dad only played tiger woods golf a few times... My wii's going in my room, and never coming out!Originally Posted by unluckylink13

LOS ANGELES - In a perfect world, the lineup card manager Charlie Manuel filled out before Tuesday night's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers would have been almost identical to the one he handed in before the opening-day game against the Pittsburgh Pirates in early April.
The world, of course, has been far from perfect for Manuel and the Phillies.
But there was Roy Halladay pitching, Chase Utley playing second base, and Ryan Howard at first for the game in Dodger Stadium, the first time that trio has been on the field together this season.

For the archives: I have reasons to suspect that the CD I was using

checksum the actual media I used).
Hopefully this is just a false alarm.

Our military has protected our soil, seas and skies. Today, they're drawn into a new battle.

As we've noted before, religious right leaders are desperate to jump aboard the Tea Party bandwagon. Now Tea Party backed candidate Sharron Angle is returning the favor, networking with Christian Coalition founder Ralph Reed and attributing her political success to God. The Tea Party movement is better-known for its alignment with libertarian, anti-Washington sentiment than for its ties to social conservatism. But in an effort to build as broad a coalition as possible in her effort to unseat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), Tea Party favorite Sharron Angle is checking... MORE >

In the preface to the first edition, Dr. Ellis states his objective, which is "to emphasize those features of the young and growing individual which will determine his response to the impact of disease processes, and distinguish this response from the behavior of the adult whose development is complete or whose organs are already suffering degeneration." He further states that "this book is not intended as an inclusive work of reference, but rather as an introduction to clinical pediatrics for those who are already familiar with the natural history of disease processes in adult life."
Dr. Ellis has created a textbook of pediatrics amply fulfilling his objective. In no sense is his book designed to compete with the encyclopedic texts of multiple authorship. Nor is it written as a handbook of pediatrics. It is indeed an introduction to the subject with the advantage of single authorship and a unified approach.
