Modern American Slave Labor and the Dark Side of the New Global EconomyMost Americans would be shocked to discover that slavery still exists in the United States. Yet most of us buy goods made by people who aren't paid for their labor–people who are trapped financially, and often physically. In Nobodies, award-winning journalist John Bowe exposes the outsourcing, corporate chicanery, immigration fraud, and sleights of hand that allow forced labor to continue in the

Somebodies, Nobodies, and the Politics of DignityIn his groundbreaking book Somebodies and Nobodies, Robert Fuller identified a form of domination that everyone has experienced but few dare to protest: rankism, abuse of the power inherent in rank to exploit and humiliate someone of lower rank.

Privacy Policy
We take your Privacy very seriously.
The point of a Privacy Policy is to help you understand exactly what we know about you, how we store it, what we do with it, how you can change or delete it and who can see it.
We go a long way to keep everyone's data safe, so you feel comfortable trusting Faceparty and the people we work with :]
This Privacy Policy is a part of our Terms & Conditions.
Any and all personal information that we may collect will be collected, used and held in accordance with the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998 and your rights and our obligations under that Act.
By using this website, you agree that we may collect, hold, process and use your information (including personal information) for the purpose of providing you with the website and its services and for developing our business in accordance with this Privacy Policy, our Cookie Policy and our Terms & Conditions.
Public Info:
When you create an account on Faceparty, you provide us with lots of information ...such as your age, gender and what music you like etc. This stuff makes up your Profile, which is of course publicly available [that's the point!]. You're in full control of this information and can update it, delete it or change it at any time [by using the "my links" in the navigation, when you log on to your account].
This information is also stored on our servers, in something called a "database". If you delete something from your Profile, it's also deleted on our database at exactly the same time. This means you're in full control of the public information that our database stores on your account. You can change it, or remove it, at any time :)
Just make sure you only publish stuff on your Profile, that you want the public to see!
Private Info:
When you create an account on Faceparty, you also provide us with some private information, such as your password and email address. We need this information so we can identify you, correspond with you and log you on to the website.
Again, you are in full control of this information and can update it, change it or delete it at any time using the My Settings link, when you log on to your account. This information is encrypted when you give it to us [and when you amend it] for your security. The public cannot see this information. The information is stored in a secure data centre, by our hosting company.
If you order something such as a T-Shirt or an Event Ticket, then we may store your address in our database. This is so we know where to send the items you have ordered.
Credit Card Info:
We do not store your credit card details.
If you purchase anything by Credit Card, you do so with our "Payment Providers". These companies have their own Privacy Policies, which are made clear to you on their payment pages.
If we change Payment Providers, your data will be transferred securely. We guarantee that we will only use PCI DSS certified Payment Providers, who can be certified with an agency such as Trustwave.
Automatically Collected Info:
In order to offer you our services, we need to collect some info automatically. This extends to:
• Your IP Address
This is a special number which identifies your computer on the Internet. We need this so (a) we know where to send the web pages you request and (b) to identify you on our systems, so we can customise your web pages [for example, showing you which of your friends are online]. IP Addresses also help us to identify and block troublesome accounts [such as cyber bullies, trolls and spammers]. Also, for the same reasons, we may store something called a "MAC address".
• The Dates and Times that you "Log On"
We need this info, so our servers know if you're on-line.
• Your Browser Type
• Your Phone Number
If you send our systems a text message, we keep a record of it ...especially premium rate ones [i.e. if they have a "billing" associated with them]. This is so we can offer you customer service and identify you on our systems. Don't worry ...we don't send spam texts and we won't make this information available to anyone who would! If you call us, our system automatically stores your number. This is so we can offer effective customer service and manage your account.
Sometimes we'll capture details about your platform, operating system and web browser. This is so we know what kind of content to give you. For example, if you have an iPad we need to give you different webpages to someone using a PC. This is because different operating systems support different software ...we need to serve the correct software for your device.
Emails, Letters & Calls:
Sometimes you might need to contact us by email, post or telephone. We may keep a copy of this correspondence. This is purely so we can assist you and improve our services.
Cookies are small files, stored on your computer when you visit a website. The cookies we store contain randomly generated codes, which help us identify you. By storing cookies we know who is who, so we can serve you the right web pages.
The information we store in your cookies is fully encrypted, for your security.
For more information on what information is stored in cookies and who can set them, please revert to our Cookie Policy.
Web servers, like all computers, can crash. Our hosting company takes backups of your data, so they can rebuild servers without losing your account, profile or messages. These backups are held in a secure data centre and are only available to our hosting company. They take daily backups, which are held for a reasonable amount of time. Nobody else has access to this information, so your data is safe!
Faceparty's servers use cache computing, in order to serve web pages faster. This means that after you delete content, that content may still exist in our servers' memories for some time. Typically this will be between 5 and 20 minutes. All cached data is permanently deleted each time our servers are restarted.
Unless you use In-Private Browsing, your browser may also use caching techniques to improve the speed of your experience, by storing data locally on your computer (as Temporary Internet Files). You can control if and how this happens and delete any such files, by following the instructions in your browser's settings.
Delivery of certain content requires you to agree to the use of your location. For example, if you want to search for members in your area.
Your location will be determined either from the location details that you provide to us (such as your country, area and post code/zip code), a lookup of your public IP address from a public GeoIP database (which gives us the location of your Internet Service Provider), or directly from the device depending on its capabilities and the permissions granted to access this information. You can control whether your device gives us this information directly from your device or handset.
Occasionally we will use your data for conducting market research and carrying out statistical, technical and logistical analysis. You will be entirely anonymous. Quite simply this enables us to ask, "How many members do we have in Wales?" or, "What percentage of our users are male or female?"
From time to time we may also track your navigation patterns. This helps us to understand the needs of our members and helps us to grow our business; it tells us what features are popular (or unpopular) and how you arrived at certain web pages. This information may also be used to compile statistical, technical and logistical analysis, as described above.
If your account is deleted, your Public Info will cease to be available to the public, via the Website. However, this information and your Private Info will be stored privately in our secure database for a period of time; usually a maximum of 3-6 months [the "Expiration Time"]. This enables us to protect your identity. For example, by keeping a record of your old member name, we can prevent anyone else from registering the same name for the duration of the Expiration Time.
Only the details that remain on your account, at the time you ask for it to be deleted, will remain on our database during the Expiration Time. This puts you in control.
If anyone engages in [or is reported and realistically suspected of] criminal conduct on the Website [for example harassment or attempted hacking], or is in serious breach of our Terms & Conditions, then we will retain all related evidence indefinitely, including but not limited to Public Info, Private Info and private exchanges. In addition this information will be stored at the offices of our legal representatives. This information will be used for investigation, civil and/or criminal prosecution. The information may be made available to the Police, the Crown Prosecution Service and/or the Courts. In the event of prosecution, or a Police RIPA request or a Court order, the information will also be made available to the victim/s.
We are required by law to keep records of any sales for a minimum of 6 years. This information is not publicly available, but the Tax Office and VAT Office have the right to inspect them, exclusively for accountancy purposes.
We are very strict about who can access your information and what information can be accessed. Here is a list of those who can access your data, along with why and what they can access:
Our Hosting Company:
We don't host the website ourselves; we pay world-leading experts in secure web hosting to do so. Because the website's servers and database are managed and stored on site at our hosting company, they have full access to our systems (and hence all of your data). This is essential in order to operate the website from a technical perspective. Our hosting company is bound by a duty of care and treats your data as strictly confidential at all times.
To make Faceparty faster, we use a third party content delivery network (a CDN). The CDN has thousands of web servers across the globe, which keep duplicates of Faceparty's publicly available content. This means that end users can get web pages from the nearest server in the CDN, instead of having to come back to our source data centre for each request. The CDN only has access to the data that you make publicly available, for example the content you post publicly on your Profile.
The general public can access any information that you post publicly, for example any of the content you post to your Profile (text, images, videos etc.). You can chose, edit and delete what information is publicly available when you log on to your account. If you don't want anything to be publicly available, don't post it!
Unless you delete your Profile, certain parts of your Profile are always available and cannot be deleted (without deleting your Profile). This is limited to your member name, age, gender, sexuality, country, area and region. This information is required for the browsing and navigation of our website. However, this information is anonymous unless you personally and specifically post additional information that could link the information to you personally. If you want to be anonymous, do not use a member name that contains your real name or any other words that could be used to identify you.
Search engines, such as Google, have computer programs called "spiders" which trawl the net for data. For the Internet, this is a good thing ...it means we can visit Google and type in a few words and find exactly what we're looking for. These "spiders" find and store the web's latest info and profiles in their own databases. If they didn't do this, we wouldn't be able to "search".
Please remember, if you make anything publicly available on Faceparty [or any other website], then Google and any other spiders/bots will be able to make a copy. If you delete something from your profile, we'll delete it pretty much instantly. However, we cannot control how long Google (or any other search engines, bots and spiders) can keep a copy of your data. If you do not want something to be publicly available, do not make it publicly available.
If you want to opt-out from appearing in Google, Yahoo and Microsoft's search results, you can do so by following the instructions in the Privacy Settings of the My Settings tab. Please note that these settings will only take effect next time Google, Yahoo or Microsoft spider your Profile.
Sometimes we target adverts by gender, age and other profile information. We do not identify you personally. For example, you might simply be identified as "an anonymous male". This enables us to show you adverts which are more likely to be of interest to you. For example, this means that if you are female, we won't bother showing you adverts for beard trimmers ...we might show you adverts for make-up, instead.
We outsource our ad serving and often our advertising sales, to reputable market leaders [our "Ad Partners"].
Because of the way the Internet works, our Ad Partners will automatically know your IP Address. This is not avoidable; every time you view anything, anywhere on the Internet, the web servers that are providing you with the content need to know your IP Address, so they can serve the content.
In order to give you adverts which are more suited to you, some Ad Partners may use profiling software that can serve you more tailored content, based upon your activity on Faceparty and on other websites. For more information on this subject, please see our Cookie Policy which also explains how to disable this kind of profiling.
Sometimes we need to outsource things to carefully selected companies and contractors, who are clued up with Data Protection. Examples include lawyers, chartered accountants and companies who do computer programming, or provide customer services.
The Police can issue a RIPA form, or a Court can grant an Order, for the release of any public and private information. We will comply with any lawful orders imposed upon us.
We go all out to keep your data safe. Here's a few things we're really proud of:
• Secure Data Centre
The company who hosts Faceparty's website also hosts websites for some of the world's largest corporations. This means we benefit from the latest security technologies. Your private information's as safe as can be!
• We're a Member of the ICO!
We are registered data controllers with the Government of the United Kingdom.
• PCI Security Standards
We are fully certified as PCI (Payment Card Industry) Compliant.
• SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)
Whenever you log on, update your private information or make a transaction, the information sent across your network [such as your phone-line or work/college computer system] is fully encrypted.
While we do all we can to protect your private information, you also agree to act in a careful way:
Keep it Under Your Hat!
Never tell anybody else your password ...if you do, they can share your password with others and access all of your private information.
Be Aware of Scams:
Here's some essential tips, to help keep you safe from scams:
• We will never send you a message asking for your password or bank details. If this happens, no matter how genuine it looks, it's a scam [called "Phishing"].
• Make sure you have "anti-virus software" and a "firewall" installed [such as Norton or McAfee] ...and that you keep them up to date. This helps to protect your computer from hackers, viruses and other malware.
• If someone sends you an email with an image embedded, which is stored on their own server, they can secretly obtain your IP address. Never choose to enable images from strangers. If you don't have a good firewall, this is all that a hacker requires to be able to find you, hack you and to gain access to your computer and everything you type. Images that are attached to an email are OK [so long as you have good anti-virus software] ...so this threat only applies to images appearing in the body of an email itself.
• Only click or visit links pointing to websites that you know you can trust. If a link points to a hacker's server, you are giving them your IP Address and without the latest anti-virus and firewall software, you could be opening up your computer to hacking and malware.
• Never install software unless (a) it came from a trustworthy source, or (b) your anti-virus software says it's OK. This is because programs can secretly gather information and send it to hackers.
• Never give or lend your account to someone else.
• Be careful what information you share with people that you meet on-line, even if they seem genuine at first.
Not everyone on-line is out to scam you ...in fact, tens of thousands of people have met their loved ones through Faceparty! It's just important to be as clued-up as possible, when it comes to keeping your data safe, so you can have a better, safer time on-line :]
For the purpose of interpreting this document, the words "info", "information" and "data" all refer to the same thing.
Don't provide us with any information at all if you aren't happy with the contents of our Privacy Policy, or the way in which your data will or could be used.
We aren't responsible for any use or misuse of any information that you make publicly available.
We do everything we can to protect your Private Data and keep our technical infrastructure secure. However, we make no warranty or representation that the Website will meet your requirements, that it will be of satisfactory quality, that it will be fit for a particular purpose, or that it will be secure.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any direct or indirect loss or damage, foreseeable or otherwise, including any indirect, consequential, special or exemplary damages arising from the use of the Website or any information contained therein. Users should be aware that they use the Website and its content at their own risk.
Time for a Change?
Sometimes, we need to change our Privacy Policy. For example, a law might change or we might add new features to the Website. If we make any changes, we'll let you know about them here ...in addition, we'll send you a message about it :)
In the event of any conflict between this Privacy Policy and any prior versions thereof, the provisions of this Privacy Policy shall prevail unless it is expressly stated otherwise.

Historical Traveler Reviews Pensione Nichols Seattle
Paying for the location
I would agree with those who found Pensione Nichols to be a little less than tidy. My sister and I stayed in a suite for two nights in mid-September and were surprised by the lack of attention to details. When I was in France in 1988, I stayed in many similarly threadbare hotels, but my expectations weren't high because I was paying the equivalent of $20. We expected more of our $195 suite at Pensione Nichols, but alas! Our first surprise was having to clean the tub out ourselves -- the maid must have walked away after scrubbing the incredibly slow-draining tub, leaving the cleanser and a wad of hairs behind. The bathroom sink also had hairs stuck in the drain, in plain sight, and the floor didn't appear to have been swept. The towels were thin, worn through in places, and frayed on the edges. In the living room, the bedspread on the daybed had large stains on it, and a comforter we got off a shelf was grungy on the edges from contact with people's skin. These are all easy things to take care of, and we wondered why they hadn't been. The smaller rooms that we peeked into looked tidier and more charming, but we didn't look at the shared bathrooms. The smells referred to in other reviews weren't noticeable to us (and to its credit, our suite smelled sweet). The breakfast of fruit and bread was adequate -- good French press coffee by Caffe d'Arte. All in all, I believe we were paying for the great location; it was admittedly nice to tumble into our own place between forays to the market, malls, and museums.
Another Rave Review!
Imagine sitting on your balcony looking out at Pike's Place Market and the sparkling waters of Elliot Bay. That was our view from our suite at this unique hotel right in the heart of Pike's Place Market. I thought I'd never get my husband off that balcony and out to explore Seattle, but I guess that's what vacation is for.
Our hostess, Nancy, graciously prepared us a breakfast tray to take back to our suite, but we could have joined the others in the charming community room with that same fabulous view.
At just under $200 a night, the open suite with bedroom, kitchen, living room and bath was perfect for us. Other rooms were small with shared bath and go for about half that price. But you still have access to the community room with sofas, etc., and that great view.
I agree with previous reviewer in using the word "funky." If new and shiney is a must in your hotel rooms, this is not for you. Think Grandma's house. We were expecting a younger clientel and were please to see more mature adults. We actually spent 2 nights at the Edgewater in a room overlooking the water on our return to Seattle, and I must say I prefer this little gem. We'll be back!
The beauty of Seattle is best appreciated from Pensione Nichols, with a wonderful view of the water and the public market. I travel to Seattle regularly for business and would never stay anywhere else. Breakfast reflects the freshness of the public market and the European style mentioned in other reviews. I love the luxurious bathrooms, one with a clawfoot tub that I would never get in another hotel. The people working at the desk are always friendly, knowledgeable about where and how to get around to restaurants and other ammenities of the city.
Funky, but clean
I read with dismay the negative reviews of this place, so we were very pleasantly surprised when we arrived to find it a perfectly clean, although funky, place. The location is the main draw - right next to Pike Place Market and downtown. Yes, the second floor does have a bit of an odor, but the third floor, where most of the rooms are, is fine.
The view is great from the breakfast room. Breakfast was very good, including lots of fruit, about 4 kinds of toast/bread, jams, and wonderful coffee. The sheets were clean, the bathrooms spotless, and all in all, it was a good place to stay.
Reminded me of Europe
When I first walked into the pensione, I was in love. This place is like pensiones in Europe. Plus, the most amazing view of puget sound, the Pike Place Market and the mountains. The staff is very friendly and down to earth. Excellent!
Absolutely Wonderful!
Wonderful! A Little Touch Of Perugia in the night. Great Location, glorious views, excellent breakfast and coffee. Not to mention, The view of the harbor was nothing less than inspiring. There is no better place from which to enjoy all Seattle has to offer.
This place is BAD
Pensione Nichols looked like a flop house. Our suite had been misrepresented (it was not airconditioned); the whole place was run down; the neighborhood scared us; we stayed only long enough to find a suitable place, and then we got charged for a night at Pensione Nichols anyway! What an experience. We have stayed at B&B's all over the country, and this is by far the worst one we have ever encountered.
Old and dirty does not mean charming
Based on reviews from this web site I stayed at Pensione Nichols recently and expected a charming -- if slightly 'lived-in' -- B&B. It is far below that in terms of quality, so buyer beware. It's just about livable, but pretty ragged. I have traveled to many parts of the world and stayed in youth hostels, dives, and the like; so I could deal with this place for the one night I stayed. But if I had medium or high standards I would have been dismayed, to say the least. The room was tiny and windowless, and unfortunately the bed was awful -- old and very saggy. Worse yet I strognly suspect the sheets were not fresh (why else would there be hair on them when I arrived)? That is simply gross.
The towels were thin and cheap, which did not help. The bathrooms were on the edge of passable in terms of cleanliness and functionality. The owner and her daughter (or at least the people who were running the place while I was there) sort of drifted around, mainly looking after a toddler (the grand-daughter?). But I think they should spend more time changing sheets and cleaning the bathrooms if they want to stay in business. The location is great, and the common room is pleasant enough (more of that charming-if-lived-in feel that I expected). The place has potential, but the owners simply MUST get a grip on their housekeeping and make a small investment in decent sheets and towels. Old does not mean charming.
Home away from Home
We stayed at the Pensione this summer and absolutely loved it. The staff was great, friendly and helpful without being intrusive. The rooms and furnishings were unique and comfortable with quite a European flair, and the bathrooms were squeeky clean (and we saw the maid working hard every day to keep them that way). The continental breakfast was fresh, colorful and delicious. Can't beat the view of Elliot Bay from the living room, or the location right above the Pike Place Market. This place is a jewel!
Not so friendly
Definitely not up to B&B standards. The two bed room had only a full bed and some sort of child sized couch. The pillows stank of sweat. The shared bathroom shower was crusted with soap scum. There was hair everywhere. No closets. Extremely hot and noisy. Two long sets of stairs that smelled of cat pee. The breakfast consisted of microwaved day old bread, reconstituted frozen OJ and a thin slice of orange, melon and grapefruit. Overall decor was consistent with the cat pee smell. Staff attitude also went well with the rest of the amenities.

A Whale of a Day!
... wanted to know about this part of the country - it was fascinating.
After about a 2-hour ride out, we finally spotted our first Orcas - it was totally worth the wait! These creatures are incredibly beautiful and graceful in the water. We saw several different groups of them throughout the day, even spotting a mother and baby at one point. Toward the end of the day, we also ...

Left Lahaina at 9:55pm last night on a rainy night. The flight was bumpy, due to the weather, so we were restricted to our seats ( even though they were first class) .. Most of the flight.

We left just as 'Don't Stop Believing' came on in hopes of avoiding the rush for the train; we didn't. The train back to SeaTac was PACKED. It was lucky that we even got on the train!

It didn't accumulate, but the wind blew the big, wet flakes right into the windshield for several minutes. As we started downward, the snow turned back into rain.

INDIANAPOLIS - Tucked away under the collar of Wisconsin's new specially-designed adidas jerseys is one simple word that defines the coaching career of Bo Ryan: 'Next'
"He always looking for that next opportunity to get better," said sophomore Sam Dekker. "One thing about coach, he hates to lose more than he likes to win. I think that's what makes him special. He's so competitive that he makes you want to win more and more."
That competitive fire was evident early for No.12 Wisconsin, as senior Ben Brust scored a career-high 29 points to help deliver a wire-to-wire 83-57 victory over Minnesota in the Big Ten tournament quarterfinals at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. In the process, he put his head coach in elite company.
Duke's Mike Krzyzewski (982), Syracuse's Jim Boeheim (947), North Carolina's Roy Williams (723) and West Virginia's Bob Huggins (738).
"It's really special," said freshman Bronson Koenig, who committed to Ryan over Krzyzewski over Williams. "He's a great coach, obviously, and I've learned a lot from him."
Ryan's first victory came 30 years ago this November, an 83-76 victory by UW-Platteville over St. Ambrose. Since then Ryan has won 11 conference titles, four Division III national championships, laid the groundwork at UW-Milwaukee and turned Wisconsin into one of the Big Ten's perennial powers upon arriving in 2001.
Pretty impressive for a head coach that doesn't bring a clipboard to diagnosis plays in huddles.
"Not only do you have to have some longevity, but you have to win," said assistant coach Gary Close, who has been with Ryan the last 11 seasons. "I mean holy cow. In this league, that's off the charts."
Recruiting the right players for his unique system is one of the reasons why Ryan has helped Wisconsin develop one of the best home-court advantages in the country (a .903 winning percentage since 2001) and confidence in hostile environments – the win over the Gophers was the Badgers' 12th away from home this season, adding to their program record.
UW hasn't done it against cupcakes either. Virginia (15-2), Michigan (13-2), Iowa (13-4), Purdue (12-5) and Green Bay (12-3) went a combined home record of 65-16, and UW was responsible for five of those losses. And despite having only two players having previously played in Indianapolis, UW had no problem shooting 54.5 percent for the game.
"I think it starts with the coaching," said Dekker. "They never get uptight. They never get caught up in where we are. We're just doing the same thing every night, no matter where we are playing. It rubs off on us. Whether you are 18 years old or 23, we got guys that are willing to step up, not be afraid of the moment, grasp it by its horns and go for it."
The secret, according to his players, is that Ryan never changes. Whether Wisconsin was on its 16 game or eight game winning streak or in the midst of five losses in a six game stretch, Ryan approached every practice with the same tone and the same mindset: it's time to get better.
That philosophy was littered throughout UW's quarterfinal win.
Although they failed to finish at the rim, Minnesota first seven shots were attempts in the post, continuing a theme of dribble penetration in the paint that has been a weakness since the start of Big Ten play. A media timeout later, Wisconsin showed better post rotation and contested more shots, evident by blocks from Frank Kaminsky, Nigel Hayes and Dekker at the rim.
"A team like Minnesota likes to get into the paint, likes to get deep in there, (and if) you can wall up the penetration (on) those drives, it makes it tougher on them," said Dekker, as Minnesota finished with only 22 points in the paint. "They have to kick it out, step back out and set themselves up again. Whenever you take out those easy angles for them and force tough shots, it's going to be tough for them to score."
After Minnesota used a 9-0 run to cut into Wisconsin's 12-point lead, Brust and Koenig made a 3-pointer on three of its next five possessions, helping UW re-establish its 12-point edge. And unlike so many times this season, UW continued building its lead after halftime to suffocate the Gophers.
"When we're moving the ball, making the extra pass, cutting and just doing the things that made us successful all year, we're doing good things," said Brust. "You never know who is going to step up."
Ryan also never talks about winning, although he's done a lot of it over the years. Ryan has averaged 23.3 wins over his 30 seasons and 24.4 wins coaching the Badgers, not to mention holding the top 10 spots in the UW record books for single-season wins. UW's 26th win is the tied for third most in school history.
Ryan's 29th-straight winning season has the mark of something special. But right now, it's all about next.
"I've been very fortunate," he said. "There's a lot of work by a lot of people that go into a number (like 700)."

Robert Stieglitz is Ready To Fight Arthur Abraham Next
By Ruslan Chikov and Alexander Pavlov
WBO super middleweight champion Robert Stieglitz (41-2, 23 KOs) would not have a problem with fighting Arthur Abraham (33-3, 26 KOs) next. The two boxers co-headlined a show on Saturday night in Offenburg, Germany. In the co-feature, Stieglitz won a one-sided twelve round unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Henry Weber (15-1-1, 3 KOs). The scores were 116-112, 118-110 and 119-109. And in the main event Abraham stopped Pablo Farias (19-2, 11 KOs) in the fifth round to capture the WBO's European title at super middleweight.
Stieglitz is scheduled to face former champion Mikkel Kessler on April 14 in Copenhagen, Denmark. They were scheduled to fight last year and Kessler withdrew with an injury. If Kessler can't make the fight, for one reason or another, Stieglitz would be willing to fight Abraham.
"If he wants to call [for the fight], I would accept [the challenge]. I can guarantee you that 100%," Stieglitz said.

The Urbz: Sims in the City (GC) Cheats
The Urbz: Sims in the City cheats, Tips, and Codes for GC.
TipsBack to top
When your plants die because you did'nt water them all you have to do is move them and they come back to life instantly. You can even move them in the same spot and then will turn green again.
You can get your mood up all the way by creating another character and making sure that the Sim in the bad mood is in the apartment. Play with the new character for awhile, then go back to the main character. He or she will be in a very good mood.
When you get enough respect and you beat every villian, you get Darius' penthouse and after putting 3000 simoleons in to it, you get a pet monkey.
If your Sim is hungry and low on money, instead of paying a machine, try kicking it. This may take a few attempts, but food will come out for your Sim to eat for free.
Enable the "Cheat gnome" code, then the "Power Socials" code as many times as desired. Sell the Power Social items obtained. You can repeat this as much as desired.
Go to Skyline Beach and get past the bouncer at midnight. You might need the style and some, but it will be worth it. Someone will give you a Power Social. Start to use it on everybody. Keep in a good mood and keep using it. You will become the player on Skyline Beach. Additionally, socials that are green are more likely to succeed; however red socials can reap larger rewards, just at a higher risk to your current reputation.
When you become a superstar (level 35) at Skyline Beach, all the signs around you will have your face on them. You can also have your face on a custom-made shirt.
Look in the dumpster in Blankwood Towers. You will find a Blast I Kiss in it, but look twice. Additionally, spend some time in every dumpster. You will be rewarded for "DumpsterDiving".
You can buy and place objects in any of the districts. Just buy it or put it in your inventory then place it in any district. Note: If you place too many objects the chance of a fire increases.
When you move to the Blankwood Towers apartment, there is a secret closet. You cannot put it in your inventory, so it cannot go in other apartments. Its secret clothing depends on your Urbz's gender. Males will get Darius' tracksuit, with glasses, shoes and hat. Females will get Roxanna Moxie's costume, including hat and leggings. Roxanna Moxie is a character from the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS version of the game. Both secret sets of clothing are neutral for all districts.

Last holiday weekend I imaged the Moon the day after Augusts' blue moon. This is an RGB image taken through my Vixen ED115 refractor from the Tehachapi Mountains - each color channel was created from a 4 frame mosaic with the Lumenera camera at the refractor's prime focus.
Then I used a 2X Powermate and shot Tycho - pretty impressive resolution for a 115 mm scope.

Design of Beam–Columns
Use Fy=50 ksi and select the lightest W12-shape for the beam–column shown in Figure P6.8-1. The member is part of a braced frame, and the axial load and bending moment are based on service loads consisting of 30% dead load and 70% live load (the end shears are not shown). Bending is about the strong axis, and Kx=Ky=1.0. The frame analysis was performed consistent with the effective length method, so the flexural rigidity, EI, was unreduced.
a. Use LRFD.
b. Use ASD.

Korean television dramas (K-dramas) rarely present a straightforward romance. They are often driven by convoluted courtships where likeable couples spend the series overcoming obstacles in order to eventually embark on an uplifting relationship. In My Lovely Samsoon, for example, the romance slowly develops between a "chubby," down-on-her luck baker with an old-fashioned name ("Samsoon" has the ring of "Gertrude" or "Mildred") and the attractive, arrogant heir to a hotel chain. Separated by economic class, social standing and family background, they endear themselves to the viewer and eventually become a couple.
Not every K-drama is so morally tidy, however. Consider the 2010 K-drama Baker King Kim Tak Goo, which features a couple whose romance is based on dysfunction rather than love. Baker King revolves around the plight of the title character, Kim Tak Goo: his separation from his mother, his slow development as a baker, and ultimate success in love and life. A complex romantic subplot, however, constantly intersects the main narrative. It features Ma Joon, whom everyone believes to be Tak Goo's half-brother, and Ma Joon's childhood sweetheart, Yoo Kyung.
Initially, Ma Joon and Yoo Kyung appear to be a familiar pair in K-dramas: a man and woman too different to be destined for couplehood because they come from radically different backgrounds, much like the romantic leads of My Lovely Samsoon, Secret Garden, Boys over Flowers and The Duo. The only male child in an affluent family, Ma Joon is taught from an early age to look down on others. Thanks to his obliging mother, Seo In Sook, he grows up arrogant and spoiled. On the other hand, Yoo Kyung comes from an impoverished rural background. While she is smart and a hard worker, she struggles through her life.
While the members of couples in other K-dramas become better people by overcoming their differences and coming together, Ma Joon and Yoo Kyung are morally compromised when they become a couple, and those problems are not easily resolved. Both characters, we learn, are the victims of childhood trauma. Yoo Kyung experienced physical and emotional abuse at the hands of her father for years before authorities intervened, while Ma Joon discovered, as a young boy, that he is actually the child of In Sook and Han Seung Jae, the family's caretaker. When the adulterous couple assaulted his grandmother—an assault that contributes to her death—the young Ma Joon was a witness. These traumatic events render Ma Joon and Yoo Kyung capable of going to extreme lengths for revenge, and as adults, they bond over their desire to get back at those who treat them badly.
The heir apparent to his father's baking empire, Ma Joon has liked Yoo Kyung since childhood, and continues to pursue her as an adult, but his efforts to help her draw the attention of In Sook, his mother, and they backfire terribly. Believing that the younger woman is attempting to seduce her son, In Sook punishes Yoo Kyung by thwarting her every effort to get ahead. She instigates her eviction from her apartment, abuses her as an employee at the baking company and ultimately sends thugs to force her to sign a resignation letter. Yoo Kyung becomes emotionally spent, and Ma Joon cannot contain his anger at his mother's constant interference in his life.
Yoo Kyung and Ma Joon agree to date, and eventually marry, but it's clear that they do so to gain revenge on In Sook. They may develop feelings for each other along the way, but these feelings are entangled in their mutual disdain for In Sook and desire for revenge. Indeed, after the wedding, Yoo Kyung actually surpasses Ma Joon in the way she punishes In Sook. She not only uses her position as the new "first lady" of the baking company to lord it over In Sook, she also uses her knowledge of In Sook's involvement in Ma Joon's grandmother's death to rob In Sook of her influence in social circles.
Ma Joon eventually succumbs to the positive influence of his half-brother, Tak Goo, the "Baker King." Yoo Kyung, however, continues on her downward moral spiral. By the end of the series, Ma Joon has to take his wife away in an effort to rehabilitate her negative ways, and she remains a questionable character who has not redeemed herself.
We often think of popular romance as a clear-cut moral fantasy: the good end happily, the bad get punished, and true love conquers all. Ma Joon and Yoo Kyung demonstrate, however, that in K-dramas, not all romances come from love and affection. They embark on a romance where traumas in the past and questionable morals in the present fundamentally complicate their love. Audiences are left to wonder: are they together because they love each other, or as part of their mutual need for revenge?

Leaf attack
A recent letter to The Post and Courier said that the practice of burning yard debris should be outlawed. I must respond.
l have leaves. Leaves in multitudes, leaves in battalions, leaves from my trees and leaves from my neighbors' trees. Leaves blow in from three counties. I have this year's leaves, last year's leaves and leaves left behind by the Native Americans.
If I raked the leaves to the edges of my property, as suggested by your writer, I would soon be making my way to the mailbox down a narrow footpath in the shadows of huge mountains of leaves.
I've tried composting the leaves. They won't compost. They are hard and stiff and no doubt gave someone the idea for Kevlar body armor.
I've ground them up and spread them in my garden. I got rust all over my tomatoes.
Bagging them for the curb would increase my working time in the yard, not to mention the ruinous cost of buying leaf bags.
I have been around long enough to witness bans and counter-bans on clear bags, black bags, and paper bags.
Rather than keep up with the whims of powerful bureaucracy, I find it easier to simply burn the leaves.
I'm not getting younger, and the leaves show no signs of abating.
Call it laziness on my part, as your correspondent did, but I have other things to do than perpetually bag leaves.

Harrell probe
Many of the findings about Bobby Harrell need to be investigated thoroughly.
He might be arrogant toward people who disagree with him, but that's not illegal.
The sources for his campaign chest are not compelled to be disclosed, at least not yet.
Shortcomings in disclosures were made very clear by the GOP during the Berkeley and Dorchester County school bond referendums. In each instance the GOP appeared to have something to hide. That led to a loss in the voting booth.
It reminds me of Mitt Romney refusing to release his financial dealings (sending money abroad to avoid taxes), except for limited disclosures that would be least objectionable to the public.
South Carolina government should not be a family fiefdom, but there is a lot of nepotism in S.C. politics. One example is using Harrell's brother to screen judicial candidates prior to appointments by the Legislature.
It is bad enough that our Legislature appoints judicial candidates, making them dependent on the Legislature.
The system has led to courts ignoring for years a suit calling for equitable funding for all public schools.
The suit was inspired by the documentary "Corridor of Shame."
Because the Court of Appeals has refused to render a clear response, school segregation remains alive and well. The ACLU is too busy to investigate.
The question of Harrell's use of a private plane for public business is still murky, but all the details are not public. Why? A personal airplane funded even partially by public money can be expensive and inappropriate and should be borne by only by the business owner, to avoid any misunderstandings.

New food section
I absolutely love the new food section that premiered in the Jan. 29 issue of The Post and Courier.
The okra soup photograph inspired me to find a recipe that beautiful so I can cook up a pot for my family, and I quickly copied the Chinese chicken and vegetable soup recipe to try with the bok choy that came in my box from Gary's Organic.
Each article touched on something for me to learn about a particular kind of food, e.g. mustard greens, or a restaurant we might like.
Thank you for such an informative and beautiful presentation.
I look forward to learning more and growing in my culinary wisdom as a result of your newspaper's new food section.

Limits needed
Within the past two years three high profile South Carolina legislators have been accused of ethics violations. Two of the three have been removed from office (or resigned) due to the violations. A grand jury is investigating the third.
This letter is not to comment on the guilt or innocence of any of these men. But I want to use them to make a point.
The common factor isn't party or county, but length of time in office.
Two of the three legislators have served for 20 years, one for eight.
It seems most of the ethics issues that have come to light since I've been following politics have involved legislators who have served for a long time.
Could term limits be one solution to corruption?
In the 19th century Lord John Acton said, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." Is it not true that the more seniority a legislator has, the more legislative power he has? Is there a connection, intentional or not?
No one runs for the Legislature saying "I want to stay in office long enough to become the boss."
But my personal experience out of politics shows the more experience one has in any field the more he thinks his idea is always the best and the harder it is to accept others' suggestions.
Maybe we don't need better ideas in government but new ideas. I'm sure airplane designers had ideas for making propeller-driven planes better, but the jet was a new idea.
If we limit legislators' terms, business in the General Assembly might slow down due to the new guys having to learn how things work. But how much gets done these days with experienced legislators running things? Term limits could phase out an elected official before he reaches the point when he thinks he can do no wrong.
Maybe it is time we revisit term limits for politicians.

Oyster success
I would like to commend the volunteers and personnel behind the planning of this year's Boone Hall Annual Oyster Roast.
Traffic in and out of the festival was very easy, with no backed-up car lines.
Inside, the oyster tables were arranged allowing easy access to plenty of tasty buckets of oysters.
Last year there was a one-hour wait in the car line and we never could get close to a bucket of oysters.
What a difference a year makes.
See you in 2015 for this fun Lowcountry festival.

An act of caring
Tuesday, Jan. 21 was a very sad day in the lives of my family.
Our three year old Siberian Husky, Nikki, "escaped" that evening along with her four-legged playmates and, as Huskies are bred to do, she ran.
She unsuccessfully tried to cross Old Towne Road and paid for it with her life.
We searched only to find her in the median strip. She had been hit by a vehicle.
When I arrived at the scene, I found a truck with some men trying to help and another vehicle with a woman also trying to help.
We couldn't determine if Nikki was alive or not, so the lady drove us to the Charleston Veterinary Emergency Center.
The staff at the center were great.
Sadly, Nikki died.
I want to thank the people who helped in our time of need. I have no idea who the men in the truck were. The lady's first name is Amy.
So thank you, Amy and the men in the truck, for caring. You made a terrible situation less terrible by caring.

Who needs an agent to strike a deal in Hollywood? Not Rodney Dangerfield and rock's David Lee Roth. They bumped into each other at L.A.'s Comedy Store. "David, ever write a song for the movies?" asked Dangerfield, who's prepping his next comedy, Back to School. Roth replied, "Hey, Rodney, ever write a movie for a song?" Impromptu negotiations followed, and Roth eventually agreed to write a song provided Danger-field plays a part in a movie Roth plans to make next year called Crazy From the Heat. After the informal deal was sealed with a handshake, Roth exclaimed, "We've just been packaged!"
Director Peter Bogdanovich lost a hard-fought battle with Universal Studios to use Bruce Springsteen's music in Mask; the studio instead opted for music by Bob Seger, whose $50,000 fee was reportedly less than one-third of Springsteen's asking price. Undaunted, Bogdanovich now wants to rescore his lukewarmly received 1981 movie They All Laughed, which featured the late Dorothy Stratten, with several Springsteen cuts. "I love Bruce Springsteen any way I can get him, even if Universal didn't want the voice of the '80s in their film," says Bogdanovich. Still, it should be noted that there is a significant gap between "wanting" and "getting": Bogdanovich admits he has yet to make a They All Laughed musical arrangement with the Boss.
Michael Landon will film next season's two-hour opener of his NBC series Highway to Heaven at Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times, in Malibu, which serves as a summer retreat for children with cancer.

Weird Al Yankovic, who turned Michael Jackson's hit Beat It into a pop parody called Eat It, has struck again. And again. His soon-to-be-released LP titled Dare To Be Stupid includes such send-ups as I Want a New Duck, to the tune of Huey Lewis' I Want a New Drug; Girls Just Want To Have Lunch, satirizing Cyndi Lauper's Girls Just Want To Have Fun; Yoda, a takeoff of the Kinks' Lola and Hooked on Polkas, featuring polka renditions of Top 40 hits including Tina Turner's What's Love Got To Do With It. For the LP's first single, Al put Madonna's Like a Virgin under the knife and came up with Like a Surgeon ("Cutting for the very first time/ Like a surgeon...got your kidneys on my mind").

Clinicians should regularly screen patients with coronary heart disease for depression because effective depression treatment may improve health outcomes, according to a science advisory from the American Heart Association (AHA).
Because depression and coronary heart disease can worsen outcomes when they occur together, physicians should treat both.
The advisory, issued September 29 and endorsed by the American Psychiatric Association, provides easy screening tools to rapidly assess patients for depression or depressionlike symptoms and offers suggestions for referral of patients to begin depression treatment (Lichtman JH et al. Circulation. 2008;118[17]:1768-1775).

Art F City
From the category archives:
Work with us. It's fun!
Ask and you shall receive.
An all-gratuitous Valentine's Day send-off from some of our favorites.
It's a big day for Art Fag City. Today, we launch our redesign, move to a new url, and change our name. From now on we'll be going by Art F City. The reasons for this change are probably obvious: after seven years as Art Fag City, we've finally grown tired of having our emails automatically filtered into spam, living without a Facebook page that actually uses the blog's name, and being referred to anonymously in the mainstream media as "an art blog" that did such and such. We'd like that to change.
Art Fag City will be posting lightly this week due to the holidays. I want to personally wish all of our readers a wonderful week with their loved ones. Hopefully you all can fit in a good party or two as well. That means eat some sparkle, drink some bubbles and unwind. For those who are around this week, we've got a few holiday images to share. For those who are away, we'll see you in the New Year.

If you're on Art and Auction's Power 100 list, you live by extremes. Whether you emit auction power, design power, collector power, personality power, dealer power, power to watch, traditional power, player power, or patron power, you share only one characteristic with your fellow listees: distinction. So what other traits can be used to enhance your mystique? Power hair.
Larry Gagosian has been having a bad day. We wrote him a letter to make him feel better.
Will Louise Blouin own us all by 2016? The Art Newspaper has been rumoring that Blouin, the owner of ArtINFO and seven other art pubs, is in negotiations to buy the Armory Fair, along with Art Platform Los Angeles and Volta. We believe it.
So we felt now was the appropriate time to kick off AFC's addition to ArtINFO's ten days of power slideshows from the Art and Auction's Power 100 list. The editors of ArtINFO have grouped the listed into categories such as auction power, design power, collector power, power personalities, power dealers, power to watch, traditional power, power players, and power patrons. This is Louise Blouin Power.
ArtReview's Power 100 list is out, so that's going to be a day wasted in listicle chatter. This thing isn't any less flawed than those page-view friendly rating slideshows ArtINFO puts together twice a month but it does include one listing we think is worth raising an eyebrow over. That eyebrow goes to dOCUMENTA (13) Artistic Director Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, who nabbed the number one slot this year. Her position warrants the rating, but given what we've seen recently, how she got there is anyone's guess.
Time to start pursuing that accolade of accolades: having Art Fag City branded on your CV for life. Are you a journalism student with a burning desire to edit everything in sight? Perhaps you love the accomplishment of creating a tidy Excel spreadsheet. Either way, you want this position. AFC is an award-winning publication that hosts some of the brightest critical minds working today. Send your application to firstname.lastname@example.com by Friday, October 12, 2012 and nab the best internship ever.

text: A quarterback claims that he can throw the football a horizontaldistance of 196.6 m (215 yd). Furthermore,he claims that he can do this by launching the ball at therelatively low angle of 25° above the horizontal. To evaluate his claim,determine the speed with which this quarterback must throw theball. Assume that the ball is launched and caught at the samevertical level and that air resistance can be ignored. Forcomparison, a baseball pitcher who can accurately throw a fastballat 45 m/s (100 mph) would be considered exceptional.
