"It was a plucky venture, this grappling with a scene such as had probably never been painted before, and might possibly prove to be unpaintable," wrote Millais's son (213). This lovely poetic vision, as the artist looks down an avenue of trees toward the glow of the early morning sun, is also one of the most technically accomplished of Millais's Scottish landscapes.

THE head of midwifery at Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has thanked Berwick midwives for their professionalism during the temporary closure of the town's maternity unit.
It was stated at last week's public meeting to discuss the future of the unit that the closure, and some of the subsequent coverage, had knocked staff members' confidence.
But Janice McNichol said: "There is absolutely no doubt that our midwives in Berwick do a really fantastic job and I would like to thank them personally for the professionalism they have shown throughout this difficult period.
"In the public research undertaken by NHS North of Tyne local women stated, very clearly, that the best thing about their maternity care was the midwives who looked after them.
"This is testament to the dedication of each and every one of our Berwick midwives and they should all be rightfully proud of the care they give to local women throughout their pregnancies."
The Advertiser constantly hears from women full of praise for the care they have received at the hands of Berwick's midwives. "I cant speak highly enough of all the staff at the unit," said local mum Sara Wood.
"I was due to have my daughter at Wansbeck and went into labour two weeks early on a bank holiday weekend. Whilst Wansbeck tried to defer me from going in, Berwick midwives helped calm me and gave me relaxation tips over the phone until my waters broke.
"Luckily I was able to go to Berwick – as soon as I arrived I was taken to the delivery suite, examined and told I was ready to push."
Sara's baby Lilly arrived just 15 minutes later. "I can honestly say I didn't expect to be giggling with the midwives whilst labouring but they were brilliant, professional, and their care and warmth shines through from pregnancy to labour and aftercare," she said.
Amy Dalrymple described the Berwick staff who dealt with her over three pregnancies as "amazing". She said: "They are professional yet friendly, and the care they give is very personal.
"I always felt the unit was a safe environment and really wanted to give birth there, but the guidelines stated as my baby was a little small I had to go to Wansbeck. I hated staying there afterwards, it was hot and busy and uncomfortable – I couldn't wait to get back to the friendly and personal care you get at Berwick. I cannot fault them, they are all fabulous!"
Grandmother Dorothy Case added: "I had two of my children at Castle Hills and two of my daughters gave birth at BMU.
"I have to say both myself and my daughters have nothing but praise for the midwives both past and present for care given before and after birth which is second to none.
"They are the best midwives you could ever meet; kind, attentive, caring. They put themselves out for you day or night. They should be so proud of themselves. They do a brilliant job."

Picks and Pans Main: Song
Worth a Listen
The Jayhawks do not lack for guts. Unfazed by numerous personnel shifts (including the 1995 departure of coleader Mark Olson), the Minneapolis band not only shares its album's title with Brian Wilson's notoriously unfinished 1967 avant-pop masterwork, but also includes a track, "Mr. Wilson," that despite auteur Gary Louris's intentions ' seems to chide the ex-Beach Boy for failing to fulfill his artistic promise. That would be harder to take if this particular Smile didn't include songs as lovely as "Broken Harpoon" and "What Led Me to This Town." High points tend to be its quieter acoustic moments, but the addition of synthesized keyboards and drums lends the album a satisfyingly twitchy, 21st-century sound. And if Louris's dark, cryptic tunes could use a dose of Olson's refreshing directness, Louris has crafted several songs worth smiling over.
Bottom Line: A band spreads its wings
Eminem (Aftermath/Interscope)
When Eminem broke into the mainstream with 1999's controversial The Slim Shady LP, some attributed the Detroit rapper's success to the color of his skin—Eminem, né Marshall Mathers, is white. But after selling more than 3 million records and nabbing a Grammy, it's clear that his potent rhymes and unique perspective are the true keys to his success. Proof of his talent—if not his taste—is amply displayed on this bestselling and very, very vulgar CD. (Parents beware: The version of the hit single "The Real Slim Shady" included on the profanity-laced album sold in most stores is not the sanitized Top 40 radio version.) With producer Dr. Dre's bouncy beats and catchy hooks, Eminem weaves an upside-down fairy tale of revenge and mayhem that takes on dark irony in light of his recent arrest on gun charges. When he gleefully disses his own mom (as well as his wife), you wonder if he's kidding. On "Stan," set to a trip-hop groove, Eminem raps about an obsessed fan who takes his idol's violent fantasies to a tragic conclusion.
Bottom Line: Not for the faint of heart
Jill Sobule (Beyond)
Album of the week
Often described as Jewel with a sense of humor, Sobule attained one-hit-wonder status with her controversial 1995 single "I Kissed a Girl," an ode to exploring lesbianism before Ellen DeGeneres made it cool to talk about it. Although there's no similarly chart-ready single on this eclectic disc (Sobule's fourth release), Pearl is an entertaining collection of 12 deceptively upbeat tracks.
Here, Sobule slips smoothly from country on "Guy Who Doesn't Get It" to bossa nova on "Mary Kay," her sardonic look at a teacher who seduced a student. Sobule's light sensibility is well-captured on "Rainy Day Parade," where she chirps, "I used to have the stars in my pocket/Now I just watch them on TV." But the standout is "Heroes," a biting dissertation on our forever-failing icons: "Paul McCartney jealous of John/Even more so now that he's gone."
Bottom Line: Peerlessly perky satirist
BBMak (Hollywood)
If only they weren't lead-footed. This trio of pinup-worthy Brits have all but one of the requisite charms to make it as a boy band—they have zero dance ability. Still, they compensate for their embarrassingly clunky stage presence with musical talent galore. All three lads possess lead-vocal voices, and when their choirboy harmonies soar and entwine, the throbbing hearts of teenage girls are turned to porridge. Hailing from the north of England, all three BBs are on the sunny side of 30. And all three play instruments. Flautist Mark Barry and guitarist Stephen "Ste" McNally are 21; guitar playing elder Christian Burns is 26. That counts as venerable in comparison to most run-of-the-record-mill boy bands. The BBs also have impressive songwriting skills. The opening track, "Back Here," is pure romantic pop; "Still on Your Side" is an anthem for loyal lovers. And "Ghost of You and Me" treads beyond the rigidly virginal territory staked out by the Backstreet Boys and 'N Sync. Like the Australian duo Savage Garden, the BBs impart a little carnal knowledge with their sweet pop confections. Add a bit more edge and adults will swoon too.
Bottom Line: BBs gun for stardom
>LOVE GOD MURDER Johnny Cash (Legacy) "These songs are just for listening and singing," Cash writes in notes for Murder, one of three CDs in this inventive, thematically organized retrospective. "Don't go out and do it."
AFTERGLOW Crowded House (Capitol) Aussie pop maestro Neil Finn has culled the Crowded House archives for a baker's dozen of unreleased tracks and B-sides. Typically flavorful songcraft, piping hot.
ROYAL The Amazing Crowns (Time Bomb) Loud, raucous rockabilly performed at punk speed by Yanks who studied at the amps of the Clash, with shouted choruses patterned after English football chants.

Lively Onam fete for inmates of Sree Chitra Poor Home
By Express News Service - THIRUVANANTHAPURAM
Published: 15th September 2013 09:20 AM
Last Updated: 15th September 2013 09:27 AM
As Onam is being celebrated with all its pomp in every nook and corner of the city, children at the Sree Chitra Poor Home too celebrated the festival. As many as 262 children, along with the officials, celebrated Onam.
The spirit of the inmates soared with the arrival of Health Minister V S Sivakumar who inaugurated the celebrations. Like in previous years, this Onam too, a philanthropist, who likes to keep a low profile, sponsored new clothes to the inmates.
According to superintendent of Sree Chitra Poor Home Eliamma Varghese, the inmates were happy to celebrate Onam with their friends, instead of going home during the festival days. However, she also admitted that there were some children who desperately wanted to go home during festivals such as Onam and spent time with family members. The staff and officials of the home did their best to make the inmates happy, by cooking a delicious 'onasadya'.
"We also organised many cultural programmes including dance, songs and various other competitions such as musical chairs, lemon and spoon to entertain inmates," Eliamma said. "It is true that some inmates are very nostalgic about families. But since there is a family atmosphere at the home and there are a number of inmates of the same age, it doesn't create any problems," she said.
The children who participated in various competitions were given prizes.

I'm quite torn on how I feel about this place. Once upon a time this used to be a proper Irish pub but over the years has changed into a regular pub with a mock Irish feel to it.
The Middlesex Uni campus is a stones throw away so expect this place to be packed with students most nights of the week.
The "live" music is what you'd expect to hear at a student bar but with the cheap drink...more
I visited this pub on a regular basis, and really liked it, but it's not really anything unusual or special. However, it does have a nice atmosphere, reasonable prices, and fairly decent food. It's a really nice place to sit outside on a warm day.
The only issue I really have is the staff. Some of them are genuinely nice and friendly people, others are rather abrupt and rude, which is really a...more
Stopped by on a business trip.
Good food, good beer, friendly service. I would definitely stop back again. A little pricey, but when on expense who cares!more
This place gets a guaranteed 5 stars just for how well they take care of my grandparents when they go.
It is a great pub, with Irish comfort food, great TVs to watch football, and the staff is absolutely excellent.
I recommend the Irish Stew.more
This is the pub I mostly try to avoid having to visit in Hendon. The drinks are extortionately expensive for the area (i.e. expect to pay over £5 per drink for spirits and mixers), and there are no cold soft drinks at all, they are all on shelves behind the bar, and the fridges are used only for alcoholic beverages. I had expected this to mean that a soft drink would be cheap, but it is not....more

What Is Tithing?
word "tithe" means "a tenth part" or 10%. In the Bible God tells us
that we are to give the first 10% of all we earn back to Him. Giving
less than 10% is not tithing.
What is the Difference between a "Tithe" and an "Offering"?
A tithe is 10% of our income. An offering is any amount you give over and above that amount. An offering is anything you give in addition to your tithe, such as gifts for special projects, your church building fund, etc. Tithing is God's minimum standard — the starting point. As God prospers you, you'll want to give more. Tithe is a debt you owe; giving is seed you sow!
Why Should I Tithe?
11 Reasons from the Bible
Because God commands it!
"A tithe of all you produce is the Lord's, and it is holy." (Leviticus 27:30)
Because Jesus commands it!
"Yes, you should tithe, and you shouldn't leave the more important things undone either." (Matthew 23:23) Tithing was the only thing Jesus commended the Pharisees for doing!
Because tithing shows that God has first place in my life!
"The purpose of tithing is to teach you to put God first place in your life." (Deuteronomy 14:23) If God does not have first priority in your finances, He isn't really first in your life.
Because it reminds me that everything I have was given to me by God!
"Always remember that it is the Lord your God who gives you the ability to produce wealth." (Deuteronomy 8:18) Rather than feeling "I'm giving God 10% of my money", realize God is letting you keep 90% of His money. Without God's help, you would have nothing. Tithing expresses my gratitude to God for helping me earn income!
Because tithing expresses my gratitude to God for helping me earn income!
"How can I repay the Lord for all his goodness to me?" (Psalm 116:12) Here's the answer: "Each of you should bring a gift in proportion to the way the Lord your God has blessed you." (Deuteronomy 16:17)
Because refusing to tithe is stealing from God!
If you don't tithe, God says you are keeping money that rightfully belongs to Him. God says, "Will a man rob God? Yet you are robbing me! But you ask, 'How do we rob you?' God says 'In tithes and offerings. Bring your whole tithe to My house.'" (Malachi 3:8-10) God has a right to whatever He asks for from you.
Because tithing gives God a chance to prove to you that He exists and wants to bless you!
"Bring me your tithe. Test me in this," says the Lord, "and see if I won't throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it. I will prevent pests from devouring your crops and the vines in your fields will be protected from plagues." (Malachi 3:10)This is one of the most amazing promises in the Bible. God actually offers you a challenge. He says, "I dare you!! Start tithing and watch what happens!" He not only promises to bless you with more, but He also promises to protect what you already have! In the bible, tithing is the only way given that you can prove God exists. Start tithing and get ready for God's blessing.
Because it is essential to spiritual growth!
"But just as you excel in everything — in faith, in speech, in knowledge…and in your love for us — see that you also excel in this grace of giving." (2 Corinthians 8:7) Many christians remain spiritual babies because they disobey God by not tithing.
Because tithing shows I really love God.
"Where your treasure is, your heart will be also." (Matthew 6:21) Wherever you put your money is where your affection is going to be. Every time you give back to God you are drawn closer to Him. You may say you love God, but 2 Corinthians 8:8 says that your giving tests the sincerity of your love. You can give without loving but you cannot love without giving. Jesus said, "If you really love me, do what I command." (John 14:15)
Because tithing is an investment for eternity!
Jesus told us "Store up treasures in heaven." (Matthew 6:19-20) How do you do that? By investing your money in helping people get to heaven. Most of the things you spend your money on will not even last for ten years, much less eternity.
Because you cannot out-give God!
There are more promises in the bible connected to giving than any other subject. Giving unlocks the promises of God in your life. When you give, God always gives back to you in greater degree. Jesus said, "For if you give, you will get. Your gift will return to you in full and overflowing measure. Whatever measure you use to give, it will be used to measure what is given back to you." (Luke 6:38)
What Should I Tithe?
The first 10% of every paycheque, and all else you earn. "Honour the Lord by giving him the first part of all your income, and He will fill your barns…to overflowing." (Proverbs 3:9-10) God doesn't want your 'left-over' income at the end of the month. He wants first place.
Where should I Give My Tithe?
The bible is very clear that God expects the tithe to be given back to Him at the place where you worship. In the Old Testament they brought their tithes to the Temple. In the New Testament the tithe was given at the synagogue or church. While there are many fine organizations, charities, and ministries, the church is God's institution. You may support other ministries with additional offerings. Only gifts given to God as an act of worship at the house of worship are considered tithes.
When Should I Tithe?
1 Corinthians 16:2 says, "On the first day of every week, set aside some of what you have earned and give it as an offering. The amount depends on how much the Lord has helped you to earn."
What's The Best Way To Remember To Tithe?
We suggest you buy a small ledger or record book. Every time you receive income, write it down. Assign 10% to Account No. 1: "Tithing." Then when you have given that amount you can record it. Most churches provide envelopes for tithers. Keep it in a prominent place on your desk as a weekly reminder. Many people write out four tithe cheques when they pay their monthly bills and then give one cheque a week.
Or, ask about our Pre-authorized Giving Plan.
To teach your children the principles of tithing you should encourage them to tithe too — even their allowances or babysitting money, etc.
Isn't Tithing An Old Testament Jewish Law That I Can Ignore?
No. That's just an old excuse with no biblical basis. First, God established the principle of tithing 430 years before He gave the Law to Moses. If tithing was only a Jewish law, why did Abraham tithe 430 years before the law was revealed? Tithing was being practiced long before the Jewish nation even existed!
What If I Can't Afford to Tithe?
If you are in debt, you can't afford not to tithe! You need God's help to get out of debt. There are many financial principles in the Bible but the starting point is to be honest to God by beginning to tithe. Tell God you're going to put Him first in your finances, that you are willing to obey the principles in His word, and you are trusting Him to help you get out of debt.
How Do I Start?
Phone the General Office (905-433-2964), and notify us of your intention. We'll make sure you receive sufficient tithing envelopes and further information.
The Real Issue
We have heard every excuse ever invented for not tithing. But in every case, an unwillingness to do what God says can be boiled down to two motives: First, materialistic values. If you're more than interested in "having things" than pleasing God, you won't tithe. You may store up treasure on earth, but you won't store up treasure in heaven. Second, unbelief. If you don't really believe God will keep all the promises He has made regarding tithing, you won't do it.
Breaking the Spirit of Poverty
In the end, as you commit your finances to God — up front — you will break 'the Spirit of Poverty'. The spirit of poverty is a fear of giving because of a fear of not getting. Jesus said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Why not show good stewardship and discipline yourself for tithing.
Why Don't You Bow Your Head and Pray this Prayer of Commitment
"Father, I know You love me and want what's best for me. I recognize that all I have, or will ever have, comes from You. I am more interested in pleasing You than in having more possessions. I want You to have first place in my life and I am willing to begin tithing as You have commanded. Out of gratitude for all You've done for me, and in expectation that You will continue to provide for me, I commit myself to returning at least the first 10% of all I earn back to You. I want to begin investing for eternity. Help me to remain faithful."

Kia Naimo Electric Crossover Vehicle Debuts in Seoul
When the idea of a hybrid car first hit the scene, most of the unveilings were for compact looking cars. The same thing happened with electric vehicles (EVs), but that's starting to change. Moving in that direction is the newly announced Kia Naimo, an electric vehicle that happens to be a crossover utility vehicle.

Genuine Synthetic Leather
Do you think your friend would like to know that DDS has this item? Just fill in the following information and we will let them know!
I ordered these to my child's shoe size .My child wears a 11 to 11.5, I ordered an 11.5 and had to reorder in a 10.5.
Age: 30-39
Was this review helpful to you? YES (
My daughter said they are comfortable. Got a half size bigger
The sizing chart recommends using "street shoe size for children", but I have found that this shoe is small! The shoe I ended up with is 3 full sizes larger than my child's street shoe size! This may be unique to us, but it's a big enough size difference that I wanted to leave a review!
We ordered these for my daugther. This is her 5th year of tap. These shoes by far exceeded my expectations. She needed something better than the patent leather start-out tap shoe, but I didn't want to spend the money on a higher end tap shoe for her. These shoes by far exceeded my expectation. I would recommend these for sure.

I submitted this recipe, but somehow the directions were changed. The bacon pieces are supposed to be added to the bowl with the almonds etc.. before adding in the green beans.
I made this for Thanksgiving, and am just now remembering to post. This was the best I've had in 25 years. was a perfect match for what my grandmother used to make. Only thing I changed was use...
Green bean casserole is a favorite on it's own but add bacon and almonds and it's even better! I used Campbell's Golden Mushroom Soup instead of the plain old cream of mushroom to add some color...
Love this recipe! It has become a family tradition.

Goodbye 2010s, Hello Medieval Times: In Which the Chastity Belt Attempts a ComebackMeredith Carroll
That's the opening line of a pitch from a company called AR Wear that's trying to get people to invest in their line of modern-day chastity belts.
But wait! There's more!
The only one responsible for a rape is the rapist and AR Wear will not solve the fundamental problem that rape exists in our world. Only by raising awareness and education, as well as bringing rapists to justice, can we all hope to eventually accomplish the goal of eliminating rape as a threat to both women and men. Meanwhile, as long as sexual predators continue to populate our world, AR Wear would like to provide products to women and girls that will offer better protection against some attempted rapes while the work of changing society's rape culture moves forward.
Their interim solution?
. . . An item of clothing that creates an effective barrier layer [allowing] women and girls to passively resist an attacker, in addition to any other form of resistance they may be able to carry out at the time of an assault.
They've created a pair of steel-like boy-short panties that are designed to be "worn comfortably while still being able to frustrate an assault effectively."
When is it that a woman is supposed to don AR Wear, exactly? On a day when she suspects she might be in danger of being raped — and for some reason she is absolutely and utterly unable or physically incapably of staying home or reporting her fears to a family member, friend therapist or the authorities? Actually, according to the pitch, yes.
We wanted to offer some peace of mind in situations that cause feelings of apprehension, such as going out on a blind date, taking an evening run, 'clubbing', traveling in unfamiliar countries, and any other activity that might make one anxious about the possibility of an assault.
AR Wear is really a wonder product — amazingly resistant to things like "pulling tearing and cutting" while at the same time "emergency room personnel or EMT's could immediately cut away the sections of the garments that are not cut-resistant in order to reach and treat wounds." How does AR Wear know the difference between a rapist and an EMT, you ask? That's actually unclear, but perhaps AR Wear provides rescue personnel with a password, pixie dust or super powers. However, what happens if a rapist is also employed as an EMT is unclear.
Chastity belts have been around since at least the Crusades but have fallen out of vogue in more modern times because it just didn't seem sanitary or humane to force women to stay chaste. And, you know, it's a little un-PC to place the responsibility of preventing rape on the potential victim.
But instead of pouring their efforts into dispelling the notion that women can prevent rape by dressing appropriately (in this case, in their product), AR Wear is astonishingly nearly at their goal of raising $50,000 in order to see their line come to fruition.
AR Wear's tagline, by the way? "A clothing line offering wearable protection for when things go wrong."
Sadly, it's doubtful that AR Wear realizes that it is what has gone wrong. Terribly, terribly wrong.

Richard Hunt (born September 12, 1935) is an internationally renowned sculptor.
He was born in 1935 on Chicago's South Side. From an early age he was interested in the arts, as his mother was an artist. As a young boy, Hunt began to show enthusiasm and talent in artistic disciplines such as drawing and painting, and also sculpture, an interest that grew more and more as he got older. He developed his skills at the Junior School of the Art Institute and later at the Art Institute of Chicago. Hunt also acquired business sense and awareness of social issues from working for his father in a barbershop.
Hunt began to experiment with materials and sculpting techniques, influenced heavily by progressive twentieth-century artists. This experimentation garnered critically positive response from the art community, such that Hunt was exhibited at the Artists of Chicago and Vicinity Show and the American Show, where the Museum of Modern Art purchased a piece for its collection. He was the youngest artist to exhibit at the 1962 Seattle World's Fair, a major international survey exhibition of modern art.
Hunt has completed more public sculptures than any other artist in the country. His signature pieces include Jacob's Ladder at the Carter G. Woodson Library in Chicago and Flintlock Fantasy in Detroit. He was appointed by President Lyndon Johnson as one of the first artists to serve on the governing board of the National Endowment for the Arts and he also served on boards of the Smithsonian Institution. Hunt is the recipient of numerous awards and honorary degrees.
Hunt has continued to experiment throughout his successful career, employing a wide range of sculptural techniques. Through his work, Hunt often makes comments on contemporary social and political issues.

That's technically possible, but it would require a new protocol that would have to be adopted by ISPs. I'm all in favour of being optimistic about adoption of capability-based protocols, but still I don't think that something that requires both a user *and* their ISP to adopt some new idea has any chance of being successful in practice. We should concentrate on things that can work in practice for existing infrastructure. -- David-Sarah Hopwood

MOBILE, Alabama -- Mobile police have identified the officer involved in a shooting that occurred last week as well as the suspect who was injured as authorities attempted to take him into custody.
Police released the names following an investigation of the incident.
Officer Sean Fisher, a 6-year veteran of the department, was involved in the shooting that occurred about 1:15 a.m. Friday in the 1900 block of Government Street, officials said today in a news release. Fisher is currently assigned to the department's Tactical Response Unit.
Police arrested Corbett Michael Stirling and charged him with an outstanding felony warrant of first-degree theft of property, as well as menacing and attempting to elude police.
Police were attempting to take a man into custody when the shooting occurred, officials said.
The man fled on foot and officers ran after him. The man — armed with a knife — then confronted an officer. The officer fired his weapon, striking the subject in the abdomen, police said.
The man was taken to the University of South Alabama Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries, officials said.

A great accomplishment for them all.
Peyton and Tony can win the "Big One".
At least the old chestnut that they can't is now put to rest.
After last night
46 minutes ago
I had my doubts when the Bears ran a touchdown in the first 12 seconds of the game, but yes...Peyton and the Colts did it. It was a good game.
I kinda thought you would be happy. :-)
Love to see a great player shake off that mean-ass 'choker' press monkey.
Was it me, or did the commercials seem by and large mean-spirited and sorta vile, this year?
Peyton Manning will also now earn far more money endorsing products. This victory will add millions to his already substantial bank account.
The commercials seemed violent this year.
The commercials seemed violent this year.
I think some guy for the NY Times is blaming Bush.

Areas of language that are problematic in production but not readily amenable to comprehension testing are also discussed.ConclusionsThe notion of expressive language disorder has been formalized in classification systems and is implicit if not explicit in the organization of many standardized tests. However, a close inspection of the evidence suggests that deficits in language expression are typically accompanied by limitations in language knowledge or difficulties processing language input. For this reason, the diagnostic category of expressive language disorder should be used with considerable caution. This view has implications for both research and clinical practice.

100 Years Strong: Southern Minnesota Regional Legal Services and the On-Going Pursuit for Equal Rights and Equal Justice
Tom Romero II
University of Denver Sturm College of Law
Hamline Journal of Public Law and Policy, Vol. 31, p. 1, 2009
As the lead essay in the Hamline Journal of Public Law and Policy's symposium issue on "Barriers to Justice: Responding to the Needs of the Low-Income Population in America," our essay provides a narrative account of the history of legal aid in Minnesota. From its humble origins in the basement of a mutual aid society in 1909 to the recent broad based community-lawyering programs for immigrants, the disabled, and those families who were hurt by predatory lending practices at the start of the 21st century, this is an "insiders" legal history concerning the values, people, and public private collaborative practices that comprise many components of equal justice in the state. More specifically, we detail the origins, development, and challenges of the Southern Minnesota Regional Legal Services (SMRLS) - one of the most innovative legal aid programs in Minnesota and the United States. In this regard, the essay ties the historical on-going work of SMRLS to the bold ideas, new directions, and dramatic challenges being encountered by scholars and practitioners of equal justice work in Minnesota and beyond.

Set Your TiVo: 02.06.12Posted by Brian Otskey on February 6th, 2012
Brian Otskey is the Big East correspondent for RTC and a regular contributor. You can find him @botskey on Twitter. See bottom of the post for the Official RTC Star System.
Connecticut can join a crowded bunch and move above .500 in the Big East with a win tonight while Louisville looks to continue its hot play of late. In the Big 12, Texas faces a pivotal game with regards to its NCAA chances. Rankings are subject to change with a new RTC Top 25 coming out today.
Connecticut @ Louisville – 7:00 PM EST on ESPN (****)
- Louisville has won four straight games and five of its past six since getting destroyed at Providence on January 10. Rick Pitino's team is playing much better offensively, scoring at least 73 points in three of the four wins during the current streak. Against Connecticut, Louisville's guards must set the tone. While Louisville isn't forcing turnovers at the clip usually seen from Pitino teams, the Cardinals can pressure the Huskies into turnovers. UConn has struggled all year with this and the Cards will have the home crowd to help them out by creating energy in the building. Offensively it's going to be tough for Louisville to score. This is not a great jump shooting team and the Huskies have a terrific interior defense. Russ Smith and Kyle Kuric are going to have to hit jumpers in order for Louisville to win this game. It'll also be interesting to see how freshman Chane Behanandoes against UConn's impressive front line. Behanan had 23 points and 11 rebounds in Saturday's win over Rutgers, making 11 of his 12 field goal attempts.
- With Jim Calhoun out, George Blaney will coach the Huskies again. Blaney used a three-guard starting lineup in Saturday's win over Seton Hall, a first for Connecticut this season. It worked well as Ryan Boatright sparked the Huskies to a blowout win. Boatright will be important again tonight. He's the only guy on UConn's roster that can score quickly in transition and provide an instant offensive spark. With Boatright and Shabazz Napier feeding Andre Drummond in the post, Connecticut has a lot of weapons to throw at Louisville's rock solid defense. If Boatright can get into the lane and draw Gorgui Dieng away from Drummond without turning it over, the Huskies will find a lot of success. That's easier said than done but a quick guard with a lot of hops like Boatright can do it and Drummond is certainly capable of finishing around the tin. Jeremy Lamb also has to make shots for the Huskies. Lamb is a good spot up shooter and a terrific slasher but he may encounter some problems with Dieng and Behanan in the paint. Lamb is UConn's best three point threat and has to knock down some triples in order to take the pressure off of Boatright to make things happen. Read the rest of this entry »

Underwood, 26, who announced her engagement on Dec. 21, talked about it for the first time in a holiday posting on her Web site: "I think you all know what Santa left under the tree for me this year ... a fiancé! Woo hoo! Little Ace is finally going to have a dad! We all couldn't be happier!!!"
The country singer and her Ottawa Senator fiancé, 29, met in October 2008 after being introduced by mutual friends.
Besides the rock, Underwood bragged about the other things she found under her Christmas tree, including "a pair of pink warm fuzzy socks to keep my tootsies nice and toasty" and lots of tasty chow.
"I ate so much on Christmas Eve that I thought I might actually get sick! But it was sooooo goooood!" she wrote on her Web site, reminding fans to "stop and reflect on the true meaning of Christmas."

Status: Recruiting
Keywords: Type 2 Diabetes , Insulin , Transient Ischemic Attack , Coronary Artery Disease
IRB Number: 00070397
Specialty: Endocrinology and Metabolism
Sub Specialties: Diabetes
Brief Summary
The primary objective of the study is:
1. Confirm the cardiovascular safety of insulin degludec compared to that of insulin glargine.
The secondary objectives are:
1. Assess the efficacy of insulin degludec on markers of glycaemic control.
2. Assess safety on other parameters in subjects with type 2 diabetes at high risk of cardiovascular events.
1. The primary endpoint is the time from randomization to first occurrence of a 3-component major adverse cardiovascualr event (MACE): cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, or non-fatal stroke.
2. The secondary endpoints are:
a. Number of severe hypoglycemic episodes
b. Time from randomization to all cause death
c. Number of serious of adverse events (SAEs)
3. Change from baseline to last assessment:
a. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (central laboratory)
b. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (central laboratory
The trial will be event-driven and will be continued until a pre-specified number of 633 positively adjudicated first MACEs are collected. After at least 150 positivey adjudicated events are collected, an interim analysis will be performed to assess the preliminary non-inferiority of IDeg to IGlar for the primary endpoint.
Detailed Description
Background Type 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance and relative insulin secretory deficiency and is associated with excess cardiovascular mortality. The current treatment guidelines for diabetes highlight the importance of diet and exercise modifications, followed by pharmacological treatment with various classes of drugs. Insulin remains the most effective and often final step in the management of type 2 diabetes. In recent years there has been increasing focus on evaluating cardiovascular risk of new antidiabetic therapies to treat type 2 diabetes. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued guidelines on how to demonstrate that new antidiabetic therapy to treat type 2 diabetes is not associated with an unacceptable increase in cardiovascular risk. The investigational drug, insulin degludec, is approved for use in Europe whereas, the FDA has requested additional clinical cardiovascular data before the review of the New Drug Application can be completed. The currently available data neither confirms nor excludes any such increased cardiovascular risk. Novo Nordisk is therefore initiating this cardiovascular outcome trial to confirm the cardiovascular safety of insulin degludec. This is a trial designed to evaluate cardiovascular outcome data. The selective and targeted approach to safety data collection is in line with the FDA guidance on safety data collection in late stage premarket and post-approval clinical investigations. The purpose of this cardiovascular outcome trial is to confirm the cardiovascular safety of insulin degludec compared to that of insulin glargine in subjects with type 2 diabetes at high risk for cardiovascular events. Insulin Degludec (IDeg) Insulin degludec (IDeg) is a basal insulin that forms soluble multi-hexamers upon subcutaneous injection, resulting in a depot from which IDeg is continuously and slowly absorbed into the circulation to provide a long and steady action profile. IDeg is developed to cover the basal insulin needs in all patients with diabetes mellitus with once daily subcutaneous injection. IDeg is developed as IDeg 100 units/mL and IDeg 200 units/mL, to accommodate the wide range of insulin dose requirements. The rationale for developing IDeg is that the ultra-long duration of action of IDeg in combination with the stable and smooth profile is expected to enable optimal glycaemic control with flexibility in time of dosing and with less hypoglycemia compared to marketed basil insulin preparations. IDeg is intended for once daily (OD) injection covering the basal insulin needs in patients with diabetes mellitus from early to late stages of the disease, either alone or in combination with prandial insulin and/or oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs). The current FDA approved long acting basal insulin analogues, Insulin Glargine and (IGlar) and Insulin Detemir (IDet), offer a number of advantages over conventional protamine-crystallized basal insulin formulations (i.e., NPH insulin), including a lower risk of hypoglycemia and more predictable glycemic control. The duration of action of these basal insulins is dose dependent, and they are administered once or twice daily to provide 24-hour coverage. The development of IDeg is performed in parallel with the development of insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp), which is a co-formulation of ultra-long-acting IDeg and the rapid-acting insulin analogue aspart (IAsp). Similar to IDeg, IDegAsp is developed as 100U/mL (NN5401) and 200 U/mL (NN1045). The development programme of IDeg has been evaluated in a series of nonclinical and clinical studies. The clinical part of the programme was initiated in September 2009 and in September 2011 Novo Nordisk applied for marketing authorization in EU and US, followed by applications to Japan, Mexico and other countries. The FDA and Health Canada have requested additional cardiovascular data before the review of the drug applications can be reconsidered. IDeg (trade name: Tresiba) is approved for use in EU, Japan, Mexico, Switzerland, Iceland, Liechenstein, Norway and India.

The Road to Art Fame
An examination of two artists,
how they got where they got,
and whether that's a good thing
Susan Kruglinski
A visitor to the Guggenheim Museum, who has just plunked down $15 to see the Matthew Barney exhibit, turns to her friend, and in an exasperated tone says, "That is truly disgusting."
She is looking at one of the many framed photo stills of Barney's five-part movie series, the Cremaster cycle. The glossy print is of something that looks like a decrepit crotch without genitalia, framing a distant view of some oddly designed race cars. The entire exhibit is a collection of props and film stills from his multi-million-dollar celluloid extravaganza, begun in 1994 and completed this year, along with film screenings in the museums basement theater. The stills depict Barney in various exquisitely executed disguises, from a tap-dancing satyr to something that resembles a peach colored, Scottish-kilt-clad B-movie zombie. The props -- some elegant and expensively crafted, some grotesque and slimy -- are strewn along the corkscrew gallery of the Guggenheim, crowned at the apex by multiple screens that hover over the art patrons, displaying excerpts from Cremaster 3, which happened to have been filmed at the Guggenheim.
Thirty-six year-old Matthew Barney is the "it" artist of the moment. His appearances are recorded in gossip columns (as well as his romantic union with singer Bjork that has recently produced a daughter), and he is currently mentioned in almost every art magazine on the racks, from Artnews to the fly-by-night zines. Recently he was the subject of a lengthy profile in the New Yorker. Superstar artists, who take on a role as a popular culture celebrity, are nothing new. Before Andy Warhol, there was Salvador Dali. And before Matthew Barney there was Julian Schnabel and his Neo-Expressionist compadres, who rekindled the glamour of gallery-hopping and the prestige of being an art collector in the 1980's. Between 1979 and 1982, unknown artists such as Schnabel, David Salle, and Robert Longo were able to hike up the price of their painting from $2000 to as much as $100,000, with celebrities clamoring to collect their art and hobnob with them. David Salle and Julian Schnabel had one-man shows at the Whitney Museum of American Art before they were 35 years old; Salle was a mere ten years out of art school.
But many of those glitzy careers fizzled by the 1990s. Now these artists are barely noticed for their paintings (Longo, Salle and Schnabel have all taken a whack at film -- only Schnabel has been successful), and contemporary art museums won't touch their stuff (the Museum of Modern Art in New York is especially critical of their works). Robert Longo and Jonathan Borofsky, both darlings of the eighties Soho and East Village scenes, are barely discussed in the context of high art. Such Neo-Pop stars as Kenny Scharf and Rodney Alan Greenblat induce wincing and eye-rolling in serious art connoisseurs.
Could this be the destiny of the goat-eared, shoe-shuffling Matthew Barney? Or will the multi-media art darling be spared this fate?
"Both Salle and Schnabel were part of the 'Painting is Back' movement of the early eighties," says art critic, art theorist, and philosopher Arthur Danto. "But that tanked midway through the decade, and never fully recovered."
But who or what made the movement soar and then tank is the tricky question. It could be the ultimate talent or talentlessness of the artists (but then, what puts them in the spotlight in the first place?), the art critics, and any influence they might have on curators and collectors, or the gallery owners who choose the hot shows and who have the art world connections to sell certain artists at a high price, raising their prestige (and then ignoring them and causing their careers to falter).
An illuminating case would be that of Julian Schnabel. Many consider him the most talked about artist of the 1980's, and certainly, scanning the articles of that decade and comparing him with his peers, he was the most written about contemporary artist of his time, breaking through to such general interest publications as Newsweek, Rolling Stone, and the New Yorker. Schnabel was discovered by a new art dealer on the scene at that time, Mary Boone, who included him in her roster of artists when opening her Soho gallery. Many writers, even during the time of Schnabel's popularity, give credit to Mary Boone as the "engineer" of his commercial success. According to Cathleen McGuigan in a 1982 issue of Artnews, "Boone's style is high-profile, and she uses her considerable charm to persuade collectors and members of the press. Boone inundates the public with an artist's work." She hustled to sell the paintings early, so that his debut was a sell-out before it even opened, and when she held a joint show of his work with the Leo Castelli gallery, McGuigan writes, "the labels posted beside each of the 13 works gave not only a title, but the name of the collector who had bought it," -- and many of those buyers were prestigious patrons who were leaders of the art-buying pack. McGuigan added that "this unorthodox display was the target of much criticism."
But Boone may not have been the only person working the crowd to inflate the value of a Schnabel painting. Schnabel himself, infamous for his Grand Canyon-sized ego -- he once claimed that his artistic peers are "Duccio, Giotto, and van Gogh" -- was doing his share of fancy footwork on his own. According to McGuigan, "Gregarious and direct, [Schnabel] worked parties like a political candidate at a Fourth of July picnic." He boldly approached the most important collectors and tried to convince them to see his shows, and often promised important art-world figures that he would save them one of his paintings. While doing this, McGuigan writes, "he was heard to say, unblinkingly, that he and Jasper Johns were the two greatest American painters of the 20th century."
Soon, Schnabel's paintings were the most coveted prize of the contemporary art world, and his shows were the talk of the world. The critic Robert Hughes covered Julian Schnabel's career at this particular time in history. In a 1987 essay for the New Republic, he wrote of the art collectors of the decade: "They all bought essentially the same paintings by the same artists -- a herd instinct that explains the monotony to which one is condemned when passing from one new collection to the next in Beverly Hills." He continued, hypothesizing about this phenomenon, that "in 1980 the uncertainty of new-market taste was such that if someone stood up to assert loudly and repeatedly that he was a genius, there was a chance he would be believed. This was the strategy of Schnabel and his art dealers, Mary Boone and Leo Castelli, and it worked brilliantly...Only a culture as sodden with hype as America's in the early eighties could possibly have underwritten his success."
At the beginning of his career, art critics took notice of his work, but no one pronounced him the new genius of his time. Artforum summed up one of his shows with the lukewarm kicker: "The deliberateness of [the works'] ambivalence, this carefully rationed aloofness, takes the bite out of the work." Well-respected Newsweek critic Mark Stevens reserved his final judgment, saying only, "[Schnabel's] drive is toward summary. His work is vulgar in the extreme...Yet these are some of the most important aspects of contemporary culture." Hilton Kramer of the New York Times took something of a stand, writing that "His work is nothing if not busy...For eyes starved by the austere nourishment of Minimal Art, Mr. Schnabel's work provides the pictorial equivalent of a junk-food binge."
Much of what was written, including in reviews, was not about the significance or quality of the art, but about the hype and attention Schnabel was arousing in the art scene. Schnabel himself said at this time, "I think some people are more interested in my success than they are in my paintings," and that "there's very little critical writing about my work."
This could point to the fact that art criticism did not influence the success of Julian Schnabel. But this could also point to the fact that, because critics did not put forth any opinion about his paintings, and the body of work did not become part of the critical dialogue that has been present through the 1970s in magazines, journals, and newspapers, he was more easily accepted as an artistic phenomenon. Nobody of any authority was saying that he was not.
"A lot of what goes for art criticism these days is not only non-judgmental and deliberately as neutral as it can get, but also avoids making statements," says art philosopher and critic James Elkins. "You find you can't paraphrase it, and you can't summarize the arguments because there aren't any." In his forthcoming book, "What Happened to Art Criticism?", Elkins writes, "There are few living art critics who have gone on the record with what they think of the twentieth century's major movements." He also quotes a 2002 survey conducted by the Columbia University National Arts Journalism Program that found that judging art is the least popular goal among American art critics, and simply describing art is the most popular. He writes, "It is an amazing reversal, as astonishing as if physicists had declared they would no longer try to understand the universe, but just appreciate it."
Elkins believes the combination of the weak art criticism that began in the eighties and art gallery savvy fed the bloated reputations of many "hot" artists of the Neo-Expressionist movement, and says that this is the opinion of other art critics and professionals, such as Robert Storrs, Andrea Frazier, and Rosalind Krauss. "If you were to ask one of them, the rise and fall of artists, especially in the eighties, has to do with newfound independence of the market from criticism, and that whatever boosterism that critics in the eighties offered was basically irrelevant to the direct advertising and marketing on the part of the galleries."
In 1989, when the dust had settled around the Neo-Expressionists, Hilton Kramer finally decided to voice an opinion about the once-golden Julian Schnabel and his gaggle of art wunderkinds. His headline read, "Ghastly Schnabel Show a Fit Ending to Ghastly Decade for Art World." Today, Schnabel has redeemed himself somewhat, having directed two critically acclaimed movies, "Basquiat" and "Night Falls Fast." But although he still paints regularly, his works do not fetch the prices they once had, and Schnabel is uncomfortably defensive about his newer position in the art scene. According to the New Yorker, when recently asked about his abandoning his old career for his new one, he barked, "I've made a thousand paintings and I've made two films. I'm a painter. Does that answer your question?" But of course Matthew Barney is not a painter, he is a filmmaker, although he insists on being referred to as a sculptor, and does have a few pencil sketches tucked away as an afterthought in a side gallery at the Guggenheim. Although his medium is film and props -- not paint and canvas -- one cannot help but hear, in the din of his roaring superstardom, the echo of a former star like Schnabel.
Barney, whose good looks and youth are mentioned in most articles about him, was a former high school football star and his class president. He was educated as an artist at Yale, and upon graduation he hit the ground running. He became a regular in the art scene in New York City and garnered interest from high-profile art dealer Barbara Gladstone almost immediately. In September of 1991, two years after graduating college, Barney made the cover of Artforum. His show that November was the event of the season. The exhibit included two videos of Barney doing theatrics, such as climbing across the ceiling of the gallery and pushing at a football sled while dressed in drag, with props from the videos on display in the gallery.
Hilton Kramer wrote of the show in the Observer, "We all know that there is now almost nothing that someone won't do in public in the name of art, no matter how stupid or nasty." But most critics wrote positively in their neutral way. Roberta Smith of the New York Times wrote blandly, "He plays his roles with a self-effacing concentration that renders him almost invisible: the vehicle of his work, not the star." More than a decade later the reviews of Barney's current show are somewhat bolder. This time Michael Kimmelman goes up to bat for the New York Times, writing, "Hands down, he is...the most compelling, richly imaginative artist to emerge in years." He then proceeds to breathlessly describe the show in its entirety (which is pretty much impossible). Village Voice art critic J. Hoberman called the Cremaster series "migraine-inducing" and said that it "gives ridiculous a bad name," while the Voice's Jerry Saltz called the show "terrific." Although the reviews state an extreme position, they rarely, if ever, put Barney's internationally celebrated work into a context of historical significance. They glow or whine, and then simply describe.
Barney is depicted in articles as a quiet, thoughtful, and guarded man. Where the millions of dollars to make his films came from is never explained (we only know that Barbara Gladstone fronted $5 million of it), although his work does fetch tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on its complexity, and he has been collected by many of the major museums internationally.
It is difficult to pinpoint the catalyst of Barney's success, if there is one. Somehow he accumulated the attention, the money, and the press to achieve art world superstardom, but the role of any critical acclaim, influence from his art world patrons, or his personality and are not quite as clearcut as with an artist like Schnabel. But the two men do have one thing in common.
"Barney rode in on a number of interlocking trends in the culture," says Danto. "The celebration of the athlete and of the body, gender ambiguity, as a consequence of late feminism, and a readiness to display oneself in performance." He adds, "The world was also ready for an artist of great ambition." Elkins agrees with the ambition theory. "His films are not low budget experimental films," he says. "They've always been as high budget as he could possibly make them. The other thing is that he markets things. When he first appeared on the scene, almost immediately I had students [at the Art Institute of Chicago] interested in him for that reason. They wanted to figure out how you make an object and then have spin-offs that you can market. The marketing is awesome."
Perhaps it is this drive to sell oneself in the vacuum of any criticism of substance that produces an art superstar in today's market. But if that is true, with or without real talent, how long can the phenomenon last?
"By now, I think the critics have begun to see Barney's work as flawed," says Danto. "A lot depends on what Barney does next, but that in turn depends on how the culture itself does, and to what degree he is in tune with it."
"My prediction for Barney would be that he goes on for another, oh, ten years," Elkins surmises, "making some enormous projects, and then either he'll become someone like Christo, who is known around the world, but no one belabors the fact that his work doesn't have any content at all, or it could be that after ten years people will become less interested, because when the hype wears off, you have to wonder what the subject is."
Elkins, art scholar that he is, then paraphrases E.H. Gombrich, from an essay titled 'The Logic of Vanity Fair." "The art world is really like the fashion world," he says, "and you shouldn't look for rhyme or reason in it except the cult of newness."
