After serving the community for three and a half decades, Henry Mayo has seen the Santa Clarita Valley experience tremendous growth and an aging population. As a result, the need for expanded healthcare services has dramatically increased.
To grow with the community, the hospital has embarked on a major long term planning project which includes the construction of a new inpatient hospital building that will add up to 120 new beds, new medical office buildings designed to support hospital programs and services, a new central plant, new parking structures and a life saving helipad.
Recent improvements include the complete renovation and expansion of the intensive care unit (ICU), the current construction of a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and a new operating room. In the last five years the hospital also expanded and updated its entire emergency and imaging departments, adding new and replacement technologies to improve the quality of your care.
As our community grows and changes, the need for superb healthcare resources increases exponentially. To meet that need, Henry Mayo's expansion plan will allow the hospital to provide greater quality and quantity of patient care.

Clayton & Leroy - BulldogPit
Models: Leroy Dale and Clayton Kole
Studio: Bulldog Pit
Starting as we mean to go on, we kick things off with newcomer Clayton and his massive, meaty cock as he pays a visit to mate Leroy's gaff for some good hard fucking! Tall, toned, smooth and pale, Clayton is fucking sexy addition to the Rudeboiz series and his huge, throbbing shaft is proof of that! Leroy can't wait to get his gob around it and gets straight to work teasing Clayton's uncut cock with his tongue, really working him up until he can't take anymore and has to fuck him rigid. Watching Leroy's tight, tanned body tensing as Clayton forces his cock up the boy's peachy arse will have you hard as hell and as he proceeds to ram him rotten, we reckon you'll be blowing your load long before the boys do!

Student Groups (The GSC Affiliate Program)
The GSC's Affiliate Program offers applications for advising of a group by GSC staff, as well as use of the GSC conference room to host Affiliate group meetings and programs. These groups are officially associated with the GSC are listed on this page: Student Groups.
If your group would like to apply to be a GSC Affiliate, please submit this application.
Mentor Program
This program connects first year and transfer LGBTQ and Women & Feminist students with University of Texas faculty and staff. Through the program, students gain the support and validation of faculty and staff. The formal mentor-mentee relationship lasts one academic year; however, many mentors and mentees maintain contact with one another well past the one-year mark.
The Mentor Program has closed for the 2016-2017 academic year. It will open again in the summer for incoming students for the 2017-2018 academic year. We are always accepting new mentors:
To be a mentor, fill out this application.
GSC Listserv
Are you on the listserv? The GSC Center has a listserv that tells you everything you need to know. Well … almost. We send out two weekly emails that post notices of events, scholarships, pertinent news items and meetings. To join the listserv, please send us an email requesting to be on the list.
Lending Library
We have a large collection of literature in the GSC. We have books, magazines, videotapes and DVDs that are available to be checked out. We welcome suggestions for new books or movies – just contact us and let us know what you'd be interested in. We are always looking to expand our library, so if you have literature or related materials you would like to donate, please stop by our office.
Click here for a list of everything in the GSC Lending Library.
GSC Internship Program
The GSC accepts interns (Graduate students and Undergraduate alike) to assist us with a variety of projects for course credit or personal enrichment. If you would like to apply to be an intern at the GSC, please fill out the application here.
Events in the GSC
We host a variety of events each semester! Check out our calendar, or facebook for specific dates and times.
Knowledge and Noms
This program combines delicious snacks with guest speakers and representatives from on and off campus organizations. These events are casual and informative, with topics ranging from stress management to how to sholarship writing and advice. With this series, the GSC aims to give students practical knowledge about the resources that are available to them at UT and beyond, to facilitate open discussions about social justice and feminism, to demystify faculty and staff so that student are more comfortable approaching them outside the classroom, and to engage students who might not otherwise have come to the GSC.
Feminist Friday
This weekly event is a space to put theory into practice. Open discussion is engaged around a specific theme each week. Also, it's a great way to connect with other feminists on campus. Some past topics include: Music Videos, "the b word," Gamergate, Street Harassment, Valentine's Day, Halloween, Politics of Black Women's Hair, Getting Called Out, Men's Role in Feminism, Not Seeing the Ocean for All the "Waves": Reframing Mainstream Feminist Herstory, Feminism and Information: Access, Archives, and Activism in Today's Digital Age, and panels on intersectionality, graduate school, and other topics.
GSC Speaker Series
This event brings scholars and activists (often scholar-activists!) to the UT campus to engage students in current debates and developments in LGBTQA and feminist circles. Past speakers include: Adelina Anthony, Cherrie Moraga, Marilyn Wann, Miss Major, Eli Clare, Jeff Sheng, Kye Allums, Raja Bhattar, Stephen Russell, Sister Outsider, and Eliel Cruz.
Lavender Graduation
Lavender Graduation is a special graduation ceremony that honors the achievements of graduating lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and ally students on campus. Lavender Graduation is co-hosted by the Gender and Sexuality Center and the UT Queer Students Alliance (QSA). Our goal is to provide a venue to demonstrate the success of our community members in a personal, entertaining and celebratory way. The Lavender Graduation Ceremony includes: Exhilarating speeches from UT faculty, administrators, students, and alumni; the chance to cross the lavender stage to celebrate your success and to receive a Lavender Graduation certificate as well as a rainbow tassel; and music, cake and food to share with friends, family and well-wishers!
Living With Pride
Going home for the holidays? Thinking about coming out? Wondering if it's the right time? Join us in the GSC for panel of folks who have gone through it, discussion, tips, and questions to help you make the best decision for you! Past topics include:Spirituality and Sexuality, Coming out for the Holidays, Allies Across the Alphabet, Out at Work, Gay for Pay, Careers in LGBTQ Advocacy.
National Young Women's Day of Action
This event is a day (typically in October) dedicated to the political activism of young women to commemorate the death of Rosie Jiménez on October 3, 1977. Jiménez was the first known young woman to die from an illegal abortion after Congress passed the Hyde Amendment, which denied Medicaid participants access to federal funds for abortions. NYWDA is organized for young women by young women, with the aim to encourage local political involvement, and at the same time, provide a forum for raising general awareness about issues that range from reproductive rights, to gender, sexual, and racial equality (http://hamp.hampshire.edu/~clpp/NYWDA/nywda.html). Each year, in observance of NYWDA, we bring a feminist speaker to campus for a luncheon and Q&A. Past speakers include: Mia McKenzie (Black Girl Dangerous), Lindy West, Cristina Tzintzún, and Tatyana Fazlalizadeh.
Feminist Action Project Conference
The GSC's founding Director, Ixchel Rosal, taught a course on Third Wave Feminism on the UT campus. As a follow-up to that class, the Feminist Action Project was founded as a student organization in the GSC in 2009. FAP organized their first conference in 2010 entitled, "Examining Intersections, Building Alliances", and featuring keynote speaker Jehmu Greene, president of the Women's Media Center. The vision of the conference was to create space in which feminists can meet, network, and workshop ideas for Feminist activism. The event was held over three days and contained lectures, panels, and workshops. Past keynotes include: Jehmu Greene, Loretta Ross, Marianne Kirby, Kim Crosby, Sharon Bridgeforth, and Feminista Jones.
Gender Performance Workshop
This program gives participants a safe setting to try on different gender expressions. Wigs, facial hair, heels, and suspenders are just a few things participants will find in the pile of gender props.

We visited the hotel early in October so found it quiet. The views towards the sea from the bedrooms are stunning. The breakfast waitress was particularly friendly and efficient.
Being towards the end of the season, some of the facilities were not available (eg restaurant) and the manager had started to put outdoor furniture away.
Large room with excellent beds and a stunning view over a beautiful landscape. The sunset is spectacular! Large bathroom that is as the rest of the place in very good condition.
The room was really nice not the usual French seaside. The room had stone walls and beams although mock really worked well. I would definetly stay again. Very clean and had obviously recently been refurbished.
good location, free parking, nice view from the window
hotel stuff don't speak english. Soundproofing is bad and in the morning I was awakening by sounds of other guests.
Arrived from Porto Torres, location was excellent, walking into town. The breakfast on the terrace was wonderful.
Easy to find; suffcient parking places; excellent view over Propriano bay; hugh breakfast
using the swimming pool,enjoying the beautiful view,being near the town and the beach.
No air-conditioning in the bedrooms.
On arrival we where made to feel very welcome, a family run hotel which had all the family involved which was lovely. Pool area was very clean and not crowded at any one time. Enjoyed my stay very much. Thank You
Only thing was that no air conditioning in the room which made it difficult to sleep at night. But its a small concern and they made up for it in other ways.
Friendly staff , relaxed atmosphere, pleasant breakfast on the terrace
No wifi, traffic noise, steps to terrace
Stunning location, beautiful design and comfortable rooms. Very child-friendly, with children's menu and toys, without being a noisy children's hotel.
We had to wait until 3pm to check in, really. Also a bit expensive compared to other hotels in the area.
Really nice breakfast.
Small bed (double bed)
Good position for tours with own car, town center could be reached by feet. Own beach available.
Breakfast variety could be better for this price, sea view from rooms in lowest floor is not as good as from higher levels (view partly obstructed by plants).
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

My salary is $32,000 a year and I get a day rate of $350 and $32 per diem each 12 hour shift I work. Holidays and anything over 12 hours is double day rate. I average about $11,000 a month income.
The bread I buy is about $2 a loaf but there is cheaper or more expensive as well, I usually buy an 18 count of eggs which is about $2, and milk is around $3.50 a gallon.

I am from a different country as well. I moved to US about 8 years ago right after high school for college. I never thought I could survive without family at the age of 18 in this country all by myself but I was wrong. US is probably the easiest place with nicest people around. I not only got independent and strong at a very young age but i learnt how to deal with life's biggest problems and survive in the worst conditions by which I mean worked really hard to pay a college tuition of $60,000. Today my husband and I have a combined income of over $150,000 a year. If you really want to change your life around then I encourage you to move here and forget about what perception people have about your country. There will always be stereotypical people around.
Florida2Texas (rep: 15.1k) posted Jun 07, 2012
@Florida2Texas It is very difficult to move to a new country. When you're younger, it's easier to adapt. You went there for school, so you had something to do and you were always busy. Plus, you had colleagues and stuff. Moving to a new country when you're older it's difficult because it's harder to make friends. Even more, you need to have someone there that can help for a few months with money and a roof over your head until you find a job :)
ancagavs (rep: 18.3k) posted Jun 08, 2012
Milk is around 3.25, Gas is about 3.20, bread (store brand) is about a dollar a loaf...1.30 for the name brand stuff. My son moved into a run down 2 bedroom apartment and I think he and his room mate are paying around 650 per month. For a decent one bedroom you would pay the same.
I make about 50-60k per year.
The USA is a land of opportunity rather than promise (although an argument can be made that it is becoming a land of promise with entitlements and welfare. Florida2Texas more than anyone else illustrates that opportunity. A better life can be made for a person willing to work and sacrifice. But also like Encorez said...just the income a a few markers is a poor way to determine quality of life. Cost of living is likely much higher here and...frankly...we as human tend to spend more than we need. So the money sounds like a lot, but doesn't seem like much.

I'm from Baltimore MD.. I was born over 30 years ago in Arlington VA to South Korean immigrants who came here in 1978. They told me before they came here that the way the United States was portrayed at that time, they were expecting the roads here to be paved with gold.. lol.. Well it's definitely not quite like that here, but it is probably one of the best places to live in the world, although also one of the most expensive!

As coastal cities begin planning for climate change and rising sea levels, author Timothy Beatley sees opportunities for rethinking the relationship between urban development and the ocean. Modern society is more dependent upon ocean resources than people are commonly aware of—from oil and gas extraction to wind energy, to the vast amounts of fish harvested globally, to medicinal compounds derived from sea creatures, and more. In Blue Urbanism, Beatley argues that, given all we've gained from the sea, city policies, plans, and daily urban life should acknowledge and support a healthy ocean environment.
The book explores issues ranging from urban design and land use, to resource extraction and renewable energy, to educating urbanites about the wonders of marine life. Beatley looks at how emerging practices like "community supported fisheries" and aquaponics can provide a sustainable alternative to industrial fishing practices. Other chapters delve into incentives for increasing use of wind and tidal energy as renewable options to oil and gas extraction that damages ocean life, and how the shipping industry is becoming more "green." Additionally, urban citizens, he explains, have many opportunities to interact meaningfully with the ocean, from beach cleanups to helping scientists gather data.
While no one city "has it all figured out," Beatley finds evidence of a changing ethic in cities around the world: a marine biodiversity census in Singapore, decreasing support for shark-finning in Hong Kong, "water plazas" in Rotterdam, a new protected area along the rocky shore of Wellington, New Zealand, "bluebelt" planning in Staten Island, and more. Ultimately he explains we must create a culture of "ocean literacy" using a variety of approaches, from building design and art installations that draw inspiration from marine forms, to encouraging citizen volunteerism related to oceans, to city-sponsored research, and support for new laws that protect marine health.
Equal parts inspiration and practical advice for urban planners, ocean activists, and policymakers, Blue Urbanism offers a comprehensive look at the challenges and great potential for urban areas to integrate ocean health into their policy and planning goals.
"Timothy Beatley... makes an explicit connection between oceans and cities. He looks at projects that study marine biodiversity near cities and talks about ways to make ports and shipping more ocean friendly using wind and solar power. He encourages urban design to consider ocean health, working toward 'bluer' cities."
Landscape Architecture Magazine
"heartening, a nice dose of optimism in a field (conservation biology) that often focuses on the negative. ... Overall, this is a fun, engaging book. Anyone interested or passionate about urban sustainability or about the health of the oceans should check it out."
The Nature Conservancy's Science Chronicles
"He spends chapters linking urban lifestyles— fish consumption, design, land use — to their oceanic consequences… He collected a myriad of upbeat examples of cities where blue urbanism has shown itself."
"Beatley gives us a new perspective in viewing water masses (rivers, lakes, seas and oceans) as an extension of our cities and, in the end, an extension of ourselves."
The Nature of Cities
"Blue Urbanism is suitable for all who are interested in and concerned about our Blue Planet, and a clarion call for effective engagement with shaping our future. Tim Beatley again offers us a promising vision of different and positive ways to address complex and neglected issues. Connecting the cities where most of us increasingly live with the watersheds and oceansheds that support humans and all that they cherish is vitally important."
Margaret A. Davidson, Acting Director, Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management
"Blue Urbanism is an inspiring book for citizens and policymakers alike, full of challenge and ideas. Connecting our cities' populations with the ocean, physically, intellectually and emotionally, is an urgent task for the twenty-first century. Tim Beatley brings examples of biodiversity, engineering, beauty and recreation together from around the world. City leadership must include the marine realm if humans are to be a healthy species on this Blue Planet."
Celia Wade-Brown, Mayor of Wellington, New Zealand
"Tim Beatley provides a cogent argument for intertwining urban and natural worlds, especially for us on the continent's edge. As we add density, Beatley expertly argues that true sustainability must extend to the blue world that defines our globe and shapes our cities."
John Rahaim, Planning Director, San Francisco
"Beatley's exploration goes well beyond regulatory tools, eventually developing a completely new vision for how we interact with urban marine environments."

I couldn't agree more with Clive about the Goldberg Variations. If I was only allowed one piece on that desert island, I think it would have to be the Goldberg (although possibly the B minor Mass or Mozart's C minor Mass).
I also agree with him about Dimitry Sitkovetsky's string trio arrangement, which grew on me, too.
(This is the perfect cue for me to reveal one of the greatest pieces of trivia I know. Stand by to be amazed. Astonished, even. Flabbergasted.
Dimitry Sitkovetsky has been to watch Chelsea play with this man.
Told you it was good.)
But if we're talking about adaptations, nothing comes close in my mind to Uri Caine's. I can't recommend it too highly - it's on Amazon here.
As for piano recorings: this Glenn Gould CD, which contains both his 1955 and 1981 recordings, is the steal of the century at £9.99, since either recording on their own would be worth ten times that. No music collection is acceptable without Gould's Goldberg!
There any other number of fine recordings - Andras Schiff, Murray Perahia et al. But the one I find myself listening to repeatedly is Angela Hewitt. In the days when I reviewed CDs, I came home with a batch of new CDs after a long evening out and put on Hewitt's recording to hear the first few variations. Eighty minutes later I took the CD out, having been held in total wonderment at her recording. It really is as fine as any recording of anything I've ever heard.

Government to issue jihadi ID cards
DPA/The Local · 14 Jan 2015, 11:27
Published: 14 Jan 2015 11:27 GMT+01:00
- Gauck tells Muslims 'we are all Germany' (14 Jan 15)
- Police fear copycat attacks in Germany (13 Jan 15)
- Minister wants to get tough on terrorists (12 Jan 15)
Potential jihadists affected by the law would have their ID card confiscated for up to three years and replaced with a new one that does not allow them to travel outside Germany.
The original draft law was to confiscate the regular ID cards for only 18 months.
The law already allows authorities to confiscate the passports of people suspected of having terrorist connections.
But many German citizens who have gone to fight for terror groups, including Isis, in conflict zones such as Syria and Iraq have travelled via Turkey using just their national ID card to cross borders.
Hans-Georg Maaßen, chief of Germany's internal security service the Constitutional Protection Agency (Verfassungsschutz), told ARD television on Sunday that his agency was observing at least 180 such "foreign fighters" who have returned to the country.
"In many cases these people have been radicalized, have combat experience, have been brutalized," Maaßen said.
"In some cases we don't know that they've returned, they come back to Germany secretly. We're striving to work out where they're staying, we work through a checklist for everyone who returns... and if there's enough evidence then we bring charges against them."
But he added that following the attacks on satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, a Jewish supermarket and police in Paris, "closer co-operation between intelligence services is now indispensable."
Asked about the threat of further attacks in Europe, Maaßen said that "we must remain calm and master the situation with a sense of proportion. Panic and hysteria are no help.
"Personally I'm calm and composed."

Tuan's paradoxes
|By Dave Maass
He has a brilliant mind, broken kidneys and Downtown's most conspicuous minivan. Is the CIA really out to get Tuan Nguyen?If you've driven on Broadway anytime since last April, chances are Tuan Nguyen's minivan has caught your eye.
He parks it in the handicapped space in front of Chase Bank, at First Avenue. It's the one with a traffic sawhorse strapped to the roof. Nguyen has painted the words "CIA" and "DEMON" on the sawhorse's cross-beams. The side of the van usually facing the street is covered by a once-yellow road sign, now painted blue. In eight-inch block letters, he's written, "CIA A BAD LIAR."
Sometimes passing drivers honk in solidarity. Pedestrians often stop to read the smaller posters filled with bullet points that adorn the van's windows and hood. Between Nguyen's imperfect English, complicated history and point-blank accusation of mental and physical torture at the hands of dialysis technicians controlled by "Big Brother," most passersby walk away looking confused, amused or uncomfortable.
One small strip of poster board taped to the passenger-side window poses Nguyen's ultimate riddle:
"Why does a two-master man live lonely in his car?"
Nguyen is a Vietnamese immigrant and naturalized citizen who came to the U.S. in 1995 to find a way to survive kidney failure. Despite language barriers, his physical disability and his growing dependence on dialysis, he earned master's degrees from San Diego State University in physics and computer science. He was a respected calculus instructor and a certified election volunteer, and, to this day, he plays bass guitar in a rock band that's much loved by San Diego's Vietnamese community.
Yet, April marks the 12th month of Nguyen's self-imposed homelessness and the fifth year of the downward spiral of his life. He has chronicled the process in sharp detail in diaries and scanned documents, which he uploads exhaustively to his website. Police reports prove his persecution. Letters of recommendation serve as testimony to his competence. He posts photographs of bloody bandages after a dialysis treatment as evidence of abuse. Even a three-legged dog that approached him at the Hall of Justice is cataloged as a CIA operative.
The answer to Nguyen's riddle is a series of paradoxes. He rails against the CIA while acknowledging that the government is keeping him alive through free healthcare and disability income. He's determined to live on the street until the world agrees that he's sane, though few will ever consider living in a van a rational behavior.
"We've kind of been at a loss as to what to do," computer scientist Dr. Joseph Lewis, who supervised Nguyen's master's thesis, says. "He doesn't seem to respond to invitations to seek the kind of help he probably needs. It's also not clear how much of what he's claiming may or may not be true. He does seem to have some evidence to corroborate his claims, but some of the things he says are definitely outlandish."
Why does Nguyen, a man with two master's degrees, live lonely in his car? I spent nine months trying to find out. Here's the story behind the remarkable man with the alarming signs.
Credits: Dave Maass
The first time I approached Nguyen, he was protesting on the cramped island of sidewalk across from the convention center in the middle of San Diego Comic-Con. Surrounded by zombies, geeks and handbillers, Nguyen was a comic-book character in his own right. Shaded by a conical hat, he carried a double-decker sign: "JUSTICE? CIA IS EVIL" on top, the six reasons why he's the "#1 Specimen of CIA's Brain Control Study" on the poster beneath it.
On a whim, I handed him my card. He examined it, looked at me, then put it away without saying a word.
Three weeks later, Nguyen sent me an email with the subject line, "I can teach anybody how to play piano/keyboard in 10 minutes." I met him a few days later at the Hall of Justice for a free lesson. He leaned a few hand-drawn instructional posters against a tree, sat me on a stool and handed me a length of cardboard on which he'd drawn a keyboard. He asked me to time him.
The soft-spoken man explained how the musical-notation system he invented is easier to learn than the classical clefs. Instead of bent teaspoons on a five-lined staff, Nguyen uses a combination of numbers and letters, based on the note's position on the keyboard and the duration it should be held. His sheet music looks like algebra homework, but it makes a lot of sense.
I learned to play "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," albeit silently on a cardboard keyboard, in just over eight minutes.

For our interviews, Nguyen preferred to meet on the side of the County Administration Center that faces the bay. Each time, he would park his van in the handicapped space in front of the picturesque fountain. Families of newlyweds just married by the county clerk would regularly struggle to find ways to take group photographs without his "CIA/DEMON" sawhorse in the background.
Nguyen is always neatly dressed and well-prepared with documents. As echoed by his doctor's statements in his medical records, aside from the whole CIA thing, he seems to be a perfectly functional adult. He's always calm, his thoughts organized. One would never suspect that he's capable of the tenor of rage and desperation displayed on his website and van.
The youngest of seven children whose father was a soldier and later became a school teacher, Nguyen grew up during the Vietnam War in Hue, a city just barely on the losing side of the border between the North and the South. After reunification, Nguyen was educated well, all the way through college, earning a bachelor's degree in physics.
The trajectory of Nguyen's life has been influenced by two competing factors, his brilliant mind and his dying kidneys.
Everything changed in 1987, his senior year of college, when his entire body swelled up. The first doctor misdiagnosed it as a vitamin deficiency. The second doctor told him the problem was with his kidneys and that his best chance for survival was abroad.
He married his wife, who was half-American, in 1991, and within four years, they were living in the U.S.
After a year in Albany, N.Y., Nguyen moved his young family to San Diego to be part of a larger Vietnamese community. He worked in a restaurant while taking classes at Grossmont College.
In 1997, his kidneys failed, but he was able to sponsor his niece to move from Vietnam to the U.S. to be his kidney donor. The transplant was successful, and Nguyen continued his schooling, studying English and math, and picking up extra money as a tutor.
"Tuan shows a great deal of potential and is a very mature, focused student," Larry Langley, a professor at Grossmont, wrote in a letter recommending Nguyen for graduate school. "In my thirty-four years of college teaching, I rate Tuan as one of the top ten students of mathematics I have worked with."
He transferred to SDSU to study physics, but the clock was ticking on his new kidney.
"She's only 90 pounds," Nguyen says of his niece. "So even though we had the matched blood, when the kidney go into my body, it worked-over. It slowed down year by year."
By the end of 2001, he was back on dialysis. Despite the setback, Nguyen pushed on, finishing his first master's degree and working toward a second in computer science. His second thesis combined his gift for music with his talent for programming. Under the supervision of artificial-intelligence specialist Dr. Joseph Lewis, Nguyen designed a program that could generate simple musical sequences, assess the quality, then combine them into longer compositions.
"At that time," Lewis tells CityBeat, "other than being a medical inconvenience, [dialysis] didn't seem that impactful— he was married with two little girls and did a fine job on his thesis. In class, he was a very attentive student. He definitely spoke up and asked questions, contributed ideas when everything was open-ended. Even as of the day of his thesis defense, it would never have occurred to me that he would descend into this madness."
Nguyen has been removed from the kidney-transplant waiting list because he has rejected psychiatric treatment.
In summer 2004, Nguyen interned on an Office of Naval Research project that required him to create a computer model that would simulate how aquatic mammals respond to sounds. The data was derived from testing on living creatures.
Here's what Nguyen writes on his website about the experience at SPAWAR Systems Center (SSC):
"At the end of my internship, one day Dr. Houser called me to the dolphin research
"Now I am in a worser situation that the SSC dolphin's. I am an CIA's dolphin," he writes.
A study published in Dialysis & Transplantation in
To dismiss Nguyen's claims outright misses the bigger picture. Patients have good reason to be suspicious of dialysis clinics.
Kramer says she can't discuss individual patients, but she points out that FMC serves 130,000 patients.
DaVita did not respond to emailed inquiries.
The condition includes symptoms such as psychosis, personality changes, slurring of the speech and paranoid delusions.
Big Brother finally came to silence him during the Big Bay Balloon Parade.
The problem is—the police can't really do that.
"If the
Nguyen doesn't want to get locked up again, so now he just lets his van do the talking, while he hides inside.

She's sad for her uncle, who dreamt of working for America but whose health held him back. She takes his claims seriously.
"I don't know what's true or not," she says, "but if I believe him, what can I do? I don't know anything about CIA."
I worry about Nguyen, too, especially after he uploaded a letter from Sharp Hospital about a new development in his health. His
Nguyen's niece wants him to move in with her. I ask him why he can't sleep indoors at night and protest during the day.
He dreams of a doctorate in astronomy. I tell him no one will clear him while he's still living in his van.
"Your argument is similar to the many psychiatrists I have talked to—it's like chicken and the egg, my problem," he says.

Healthiest Recipes from the March 2012 Issue
After our team cranks out health data (calories, fat, cholesterol, etc) for every recipe in the issue, we will ask nutritionist Marissa Lippert to name the best bang for your buck–health wise.
Photograph by Romulo Yanes
Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Raisins
"In the cruciferous vegetable family, brussels sprouts are a great source of phytonutrients, which help protect against cancer," Lippert says of this recipe (from Jenny Rosenstrach and Andy Ward's Providers column). "They're also packed with fiber, folate and vitamins A and C." And here's what makes this dish an easy sell at the family table: "The addition of a little bacon and raisins here amps up the flavor factor. That's the beauty of bacon: just a little gets you a lot of flavor and a balanced, low-calorie dish."
Robiola, Shaved Onion and Brussels Sprout Pizza
"I'm a big proponent of taking something that's not often viewed as healthful and boosting its nutritional value with delicious, fresh toppings," Lipper says. In this recipe from Sullivan Street Bakery's Jim Lahey, "red onions and brussels sprouts (yes, again) contribute antioxidant and cancer-fighting properties. It's a great example of comfort food that's not bad for you."
Photograph by Tara Donne
Vegetable a la Barigoule with Vanilla
"Alain Ducasse's focus on vegetables–respecting them and making them the prominent item in a meal–is spot on." This, among other reasons we shared in our March issue's Good Health column, is why French chefs don't get fat. "This dish blends a variety of nutrient-packed veggies into a light, healthy stew," Lippert explains. "Spices and out-of-the-box vanilla bean add intrigue."

The musicians were excellent...the 3 pieces were terribly boring and offensive to the ear.
star this review starred report as inappropriate
Great evening. In addition to the four pieces, the orchestra played two short but rousing encores. It would be great to see the Jerusalem Symphony over here again.
Founded in the 1940s as the Israel Broadcast Authority Radio Orchestra, the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra is one of the oldest and most important musical institutions in Israel. Under the tirelessly creative vision of music director Leon Botstein, the orchestra has gained world renown for innovative programming that integrates the bold spirit and multi-ethnic identity of Israel's diverse population with the historical and cultural context of its ancient capital.
In a fascinating program exploring the American Jewish diaspora, the orchestra and Grammy-nominated violinist Robert McDuffie make their Royce Hall debut, performing Erich Walter Sternberg's The Twelve Tribes of Israel, Bernstein's Serenade, and Copland's Symphony No. 3.

Urban Leadership Collective: Fear of Man
Trillia is the author of United: Captured by God's Vision for Diversity (Moody, 2014). You also guest posts at Desiring God and The Gospel Coalition.
When I first became a Christian, I remember feeling "carefree" and to say I was excited about the Lord would have been an understatement. I was also a sponge. Anything anyone said to me I took as "the gospel." As a young, impressionable Christian this was not good. I didn't fully understand grace and as people would talk about sin I began to become fearful of not measuring up. I began to fear sinning. I began to question my motives, actions, thoughts--everything and I assumed everyone was questioning them too! I was afraid of the judgment of others. I was terrified of the opinions of others. I feared man.

Street Lights To Be Shut Off in Pease Township on Friday
Plagued by cuts in local government funds by the state and failure of residents to approve a tax levy, the Pease Township trustees claim they do not have the funds to keep the street lights in the township lighted.
At their meeting on Wednesday, the trustees voted "to shut off all 179 lights located in Pease Township effective March 1. This action is being taken due to the reduction of local government funds through the state and the failure this past November of a proposed levy that would have replaced the loss of those funds."
The trustees said the levy had been anticipated to generate the revenue needed to sustain the cost of the lights. "The levy was critical due to the loss of revenue." Without the additional money the levy would have produced, the trustees say they cannot maintain the cost of keeping the street lights on.
"Gov. Kasich and the Republican administration cut our local government funds – the funds that the majority of small government entities relied on heavily to continue daily operations. That is the reason villages, libraries, park districts and townships are now experiencing these problems," the trustees said in a statement issued following their meeting.
No other sources of revenue can be used to finance the lights. "Road and bridge funds, per the Ohio Revised Code, can't be utilized to maintain street lights. Only the general fund can pay for lights; the general fund which is already burdened by mandates," the trustees' statement continued.
The mandates, they pointed out, include contributions of $7,500 to the Belmont County Board of Elections and $15,000 to the Belmont County Health Department. Both come from the township's general fund. All 16 townships in the county are saddled with those mandates.
"While our local government funds have been cut," the trustees maintained, "Gov. Kasich's rainy day fund has increased from approximately 25 cents to almost $2 billion. The rainy day fund continues to grow on the back of our local entities. Pease Township alone has sustained over $23,000 in cuts in local government funds in the last three years. We are just one small entity – consider how many millions of dollars have been taken away from local government entities to sustain the governor's rainy day fund."
Those affected by the discontinuance of light service who may want to maintain a street light at their own expense are advised to contact American Electric Power at 1-800-672-2231.
"The board of trustees recognizes the hardship to the residents that will result from shutting off the lights," the trustees noted, "but has no other course of action at this time. However, the board is contemplating possibly putting the 1 mill levy on the ballot in the future." A 1-mill levy for the lights was voted down in November. Anyone with questions concerning the trustees' action is to contact Michael Bianconi at 740-635-3072.
Bianconi , president of the trustees board, noted Pease Township is not alone in this critical financial situation. He cited the fact that cash-strapped Mingo Junction is contemplating shutting off street lights. He also noted that Bellaire has approved shutting off traffic lights to save money.
Ever since the official announcement that Boscov's department store would be moving into the Ohio Valley Mall before the arrival of the Christmas shopping season, there has been a lot of talk about the size of the store, since it will be taking over occupancy of five store locations – four currently operating and one vacant space.
Boscov's, the largest family-owned department store in the United States, will occupy a total of 180,000 square feet of space. That would be almost like having the Wal-Mart store from the Ohio Valley Plaza inside the mall – but not quite.
By comparison, the Wal-Mart store has just a little over 200,000 square feet of space, according to Manager Dean Holtsclaw. And Holtsclaw says Boscov's is a fine addition to the mall complex and predicted a bright future for the store.
Work has already been started in one vacant space to relocate one of the four operating businesses that must be moved to accommodate Boscov's. The site is being prepared for Kitchen Collection, which will be moving further south in the Sears corridor. The store's final day in its present location is March 12.
Besides Kitchen Collection, the stores that will be relocated elsewhere in the mall to make way for Boscov's are Books-A-Million, Victoria's Secret, and Raven Rock Workwear.
Work also has been started by Boscov's to convert the former two-story anchor location that had been occupied by JCPenney and later Levin Furniture into their needs. The furniture store did not use the second floor. The conversion work is expected to take about eight months.
Meanwhile, another change will take place in the mall this week, but it is not connected to the Boscov's project. The Velocity sporting goods store has had a closing sale going on for a couple of weeks. Its final day of operation is Tuesday.
A campaign spearheaded by Bellaire attorney Dan Frizzi to protect and preserve the high-level railroad viaduct that cuts through the downtown area of Bellaire en route to crossing the Ohio River into West Virginia is getting widespread support throughout Belmont County and beyond.
Following the formation of the Great Stone Viaduct Historical Education Society, Inc. more than a year ago, Frizzi has been carrying the message of the organization's efforts to educate the public of the historical significance of the huge structure that was constructed during the 1868-71 period. He has been seeking endorsement of the Society's goals through a resolution being presented to governmental units and civic organizations in the county for their approval.
The Belmont County Tourism Council last week gave its unanimous endorsement to the efforts and goals of the society "to secure, protect and preserve the abandoned portions of the Great Stone Viaduct and to encourage all interested parties to cooperate in such efforts."
A portion of the viaduct, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and carries an Ohio Historic Marker, is still in use by the Wheeling & Lake Erie Railway. But the western portion is not in use and has fallen into disrepair, "detracting from its beauty as an architectural masterpiece of engineering and stone masonry." The society's goal is to acquire that portion and upgrade it "for the education and enjoyment of future generations."
The tourism council fully endorsed the society's effort by approving the resolution. Two weeks earlier the Belmont County commissioners offered their full support of the society's efforts.
Although last-minute exhibitors are still being accepted, the St. Clairsville Area Chamber of Commerce's 22nd annual Home and Business Expo is set to kick off with a Business After Hours event on Thursday that will give chamber members and their guests a sneak preview of the displays set up for the show on Friday and Saturday.
Being held for the first time as part of the Expo, the BAH will be held from 6-9 p.m. at the Carnes Center on Roscoe Road, three miles west of St. Clairsville, The Expo itself will open on Friday from 3-8 p.m. and on Saturday from noon to 9 p.m.
What is on the minds of many weather observers is how the month of March will make its debut on Friday. Will it be like a lamb or a lion?
The old adage claims that if it comes in like a lion – that is with nasty weather conditions – it will go out like a lamb or with pleasant weather. Over the past couple of weeks I've heard more people complain about the windy, cold weather. More than just a few times I've heard the comment, "I'm sick of winter." And that's exactly how I feel, too.

How McGruff and the Crying Indian Changed America: A History of Iconic Ad Council Campaigns details how public service advertising campaigns have been influenced by corporations and the government, becoming part of our national conversation and changing us as a society.
Over the past decade, scholars, practitioners, and leading diplomats have forcefully argued for the need to move beyond one-way, mass-media-driven campaigns and develop more relational strategies. In the coming years, as the range of public diplomacy actors grows, the issues become more complexly intertwined, and the use of social media proliferates, the focus on relations will intensify along with the demands for more sophisticated strategies. These changes in the international arena call for a connective mindshift: a shift from information control and dominance to skilled relationship management.
In Grave Injustice, Stack seeks to advance the anti–death penalty argument by examining the cases of individuals who, like Troy Davis, have been executed but are likely innocent. By telling the stories of Jesse Tafero, Ruben Cantu, Carlos DeLuna, Cameron Todd Willingham, Larry Griffin, and others, Stack puts a human face on the ultimate and irrevocable tragedy of capital punishment.
Professor Patricia Aufderheide's book Documentary Film: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press, 2007) covers genres and styles of documentaries and issues such as ethics and objectivity. She cites examples from both classics and modern documentary films.
Getting It Wrong debunks 10 prominent media-driven myths, among them several of the most cherished stories American journalism tells about itself. Media-driven myths are stories about and/or by the news media that are widely believed and often retold, but which, under scrutiniy, prove to be apocryphal or wildly exaggerated. These include the notion that the news media brought down Richard Nixon's corrupt presidency, ended Sen. Joseph McCarthy's anti-communist witchhunt, and fomented the Spanish-American War.
The Movies That Changed Us: Reflections on the Screen is Nick Clooney's analysis of 20 films that impacted society and the basis of a course he will teach in Spring 2009. Clooney is also the author of Cincinnati: Majestic Vision (2001) and Nick: Collected Columns of Nick Clooney.
Experts from industry, academia, and public policy consider both economic and political implications of open standards. The book examines the effect of open standards on innovation, on the relationship between interoperability and public policy (and if government has a responsibility to promote open standards), and on intellectual property rights in standardization--an issue at the heart of current global controversies. Finally, Opening Standards recommends a framework for defining openness in twenty-first-century information infrastructures.
Protocol Politics examines what's at stake politically, economically, and technically in the selection and adoption of a new Internet protocol. DeNardis's key insight is that protocols are political. IPv6 intersects with provocative topics including Internet civil liberties, U.S. military objectives, globalization, institutional power struggles, and the promise of global democratic.
The Internet has transformed the manner in which information is exchanged and business is conducted, arguably more than any other communication development in the past century. Despite its wide reach and powerful global influence, it is a medium uncontrolled by any one centralized system, organization, or governing body, a reality that has given rise to all manner of free-speech issues and cybersecurity concerns.
AU Professor Emeritus Jerry Hendrix, Professor Pallavi Kumar, and Assistant Professor Darrell Hayes teamed up to revise a classic source for case study courses with almost all new material, primarily from the Public Relations Society of America's award-winning cases. Using the ROPE process model (research, objectives, programming, and evaluation) developed by Hendrix, the authors keep students focused on the strategic elements of exemplary communications campaigns.
Many guides on public speaking focus on how to convey knowledge or understanding. While it is useful to master such informative speech, other goals and strategies are essential for a politician. The political speaker is often called upon to communicate optimism, to rely on material written by others, to speak repeatedly, day in and day out.
Lehrman's Political Speechwriter's Companion offers both speakers and writers the "LAWS" of political speech and how to apply them. Lehrman's book provides annotated speeches, interviews with speechwriting luminaries, and Web links to notable speeches.
Charles Lewis co-authored the New York Times best seller The Buying of the President 2004 (HarperCollins, 2004), an investigative analysis of campaign contributions and how they affect candidates. The book, researched by many SOC journalism students, was written with The Center for Public Integrity, a non-profit, non-partisan investigative reporting organization that Lewis founded.
In Montgomery's latest book, Generation Digital: Politics, Commerce, and Childhood in the Age of the Internet (The MIT Press, 2007), she examines the impact of the new media landscape on children's social and political development and the policy battles that have been waged by parents, politicians and advocacy groups on their behalf.
As cinematic technology brings ever-more-breathtaking images to the screen, and as our direct contact with nature diminishes, an ever-expanding audience craves the indirect experience that these films provide. But the success of wildlife and nature films has a dark side, as Chris Palmer reveals in his authoritative and engrossing report on the wildlife film business. A veteran producer and film educator, Palmer looks past the headlines about TV host Steve Irwin's death by stingray and filmmaker Timothy Treadwell falling prey to his beloved grizzlies, to uncover a more pervasive and troubling trend toward sensationalism, extreme risk-taking, and even abuse in wildlife films.
Rockwell's Media Power in Central America (University of Illinois Press, 2003) won a "Choice" award for 2003 from the American Library Association, which listed it as one of the best academic books of the year.
Dead Wrong: Violence, Vengeance and the Victims of Capital Punishment (Praeger, 2006) reveals the human side of the death penalty and comes face-to-face with current issues involving capital punishment.
In The Greater Generation: In Defense of the Baby Boomer Legacy (St. Martins Press, 2006) Steinhorn defends baby boomers against critics' claims that they are self-centered, elitist and self-indulgent, arguing instead that the generation has improved forever American culture.
From "Perverts" to "Fab Five"tracks a half-century of how the American media have depicted gay people. Each chapter of Streitmatter's illuminating book describes a particular milestone on the media's evolution from demonizing homosexuals over fifty years ago to celebrating gay people today.
Journalism Ethics by Court Decree: The Supreme Court on the Proper Practice of Journalism (LFB Scholarly Publishing, 2008) is the latest book by Watson. The book covers historic Supreme Court decisions relating to the First Amendment and conflicts between law and journalism ethics.
Zaharna's Battles to Bridges offers timely insight and tackles the pressing need to expand the vision of strategic US public diplomacy. Within a rich theoretical framework, it explores the interplay of power politics, culture, identity, and communication and explains how the events of 9/11 and underlying communication and political dynamics have redefined what 'strategic communication' means today.
