- Title
- A journey around myself: an archaeological exploration of identity
- Author(s)
- Fonseca, Lariane
- Abstract
- A Journey Around Myself: an Archaeological Exploration of Identity is a study of self. It examines how a person with a fractured geography, dislocated and re-located in a foreign landscape, can structure a personal narrative and maintain an authentic voice. The thesis investigates the role of memory and narrative in unraveling a sense of identity and in doing so reveals how individuals bring a sense of linearity to the fragments of their existence by authoring a unifying narrative. In turn, this narrative (life-story) embodies a sense of identity that is actualised through narrative discourse (articulation of life-story). Commencing with a model for Constructing Personal Narratives (Flood 2003), A Journey Around Myself explores the complex and stratified fragments of memoried experience to extend the Flood model. Using the metaphor of archaeology, the thesis introduces a new approach to narrative inquiry. The model of 'archaeological narrative inquiry'© uses the concepts, tools, and modes of archaeology to explore the building blocks in the authoring of self. This method embraces the creative potential of an individual and shows how creativity can be used as an essential element to investigate and interrogate the multifarious elements of personal narrative. The use of archaeological narrative inquiry reveals a unique way by which interrogation and reflection are used to tap into the creative self to generate data in the form of creative artefacts for examination and consideration. Through this process, data was generated and a number of artefacts were created. These include: (1) A Book of Photographic Collages: The Hall of Mirrors; (2) A Digital Story: Argumentum e Silencio; (3) A Digital Story: A Journey Through Lost Time… (4) A Digital Story: Lost in Translation (5) An Archive of Family Photographs: Happy Memories; (6) A Fable: Satatantra: The Elephant and the Mirror and (7) A Narrative Account of the Research Journey: Charting the Journey. These artefacts are an integral part of the thesis and can be read or viewed in any order. This method of archaeological narrative inquiry demonstrates the significance of, and the possibilities created by drawing on an individual's creativity as part of an exploration of self. This distinctive data mechanism manifests in a PhD thesis that falls outside the traditional 'research' PhD or a 'PhD by artefact and exegesis'. The thesis also demonstrates how various components interact to articulate a sense of self and preserve the authentic voice in a forum where the researcher and the researched are one and the same.

Comments about overnight clearing gel:
Overnight lotions don't usually work for me, but this system with this gel seems to work pretty well. A bit pricy, but definitely worth it!
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
Love it!!
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
I'd been dealing with acne for over 10 years and I've tried a long list of spot treatments. Everything from drugstore, high-end, and dermatologist treatments and after using the overnight clearing gel for about a month now I really feel that it is the best I've tried. I've only had one major, hormonal breakout in the time, and I swear that after 2 days it was almost completely gone! I would definitely recommend to anyone dealing with acne.
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
Unfortunately, this product didn't do much for my skin, at all. I looked at reviews online and had narrowed it down to this and the clearing booster. I went to my local Ulta and had the booster in hand, since it had better reviews, but then I was approached by one of the workers and she suggested I get the overnight gel instead, as it is more gentle and she swore by how well it worked. So I swapped the products out and decided to buy this instead. I used it every night for a week on breakouts around my chin, and there was little to no improvement. It didn't dry my skin out, and it felt nice, but it did nothing to help clear my breakouts.
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
Dried my face up leaving it peeling. I had to stop use.
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
i am lately having frequent breakouts, and was suggested this product by a beauty professional after a dermalogica facial. Neither the facial nor this product helped in any ways...i continue to have breakouts like earlier, although i have been judiciously using this product daily, for last 3 weeks. it only moisturizes well...For the price , it didn't prove it's worth. i am sad.....
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
This works fast and gentle on my acne!! Never over dries or causes flakiness
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
I was so excited to try this product because I have loved all of my other Dermalogica products, however after every application I broke out more. I've had to stop using it. I can't say that I would recommend this product but I would recommend many others!
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
I bought this as I suffer from spots around my mouth / chin / jawline and had read good reviews
I think I was expecting a miracle overnight as a result of reading previous reviews, but unfortunately it didn't really do anything! - certainly not for use as a spot treatment
I have instead been using it on the area where I get spots (whether I have any or not) as opposed to using it on already developed spots and my skin does look a little clearer but not sure it is entirely down to this product
Comments about overnight clearing gel:
Ive been using this product for two weeks now. I am so positive that it will heal my acne but for with continuous use, it worsens my acne in the jaw and cheeks. I am using this with dermal clay cleanser and active moist. I am not sure if I should wait longer for the results but my skin is itchy because of the acne.

Tier 4 in summer is bigger who the rep is for. In terms of number of clubs if not standards. Please don't be so abusive as I have shown you up on every occasion you've tried that. The pseudo fact was Marauder's
Tier 4 is bigger than BARLA is the most ridiculous pseudo fact you have ever made.
Bear in mind, tier 4 includes BARLA teams as does tier 3. You persistently muddying the waters with your one-liners does not aid amateur RL one jot. You're a clown

I'm on my phone right now so I really can't post any pics or vids .. but feel free to do so ..
Highlights from the last game:
NBA.COM's Knicks vs. Pacers Preview:
The New York Knicks have missed the playoffs the six previous seasons while the Indiana Pacers have endured a four-season drought. It's highly possible that both those streaks will end this season.
These teams have showed plenty of improvement heading into their first meeting Sunday afternoon when the Knicks try to hand the Pacers an eighth straight road loss.
It was a decade ago when these franchises were postseason regulars, meeting three straight times in the playoffs from 1998-2000. Both are hoping to return to those days, and New York (18-14) enters play with the sixth-best record in the Eastern Conference while Indiana (14-17) is seventh.
Neither club is entering this matchup at its best.
The Knicks have lost five of seven during a difficult stretch in which they have faced some of the league's best teams. They are back home after falling 106-98 at Miami on Tuesday and 112-103 at Orlando on Thursday.
Amare Stoudemire finished with 30 points in both losses, but was limited to under 32 minutes Thursday due to foul trouble.
"I thought we were really feeding off each other," Stoudemire said. "If I didn't get in foul trouble, it would have been a different game for sure."
Indiana has also faded a bit, losing seven of 10. The Pacers, though, ended a three-game slide with a 95-86 home victory over lowly Washington on Friday as Danny Granger and Darren Collison each scored 18 points.
"The NBA is a season of runs," Granger said. "Teams that win seven, eight, nine in a row - 10 out of 12, or something like that - that's when teams separate themselves.
"We just haven't hit our stride yet. I think it's coming."
One reason the Pacers have improved is their defense. Indiana finished 13th in the NBA in opponents' field-goal percentage at 45.3 percent in 2009-10, and is among the league leaders at 43.4 percent this season.
The Pacers limited the Wizards to 38.8 percent Friday.
"I'm pleased with our half-court defense," coach Jim O'Brien said. "We talked about teams playing against our half-court defense without giving up cheap baskets. We're making strides. We have a long way to go."
Indiana is 5-0 at New York when Granger starts. These teams split four meetings last season, with Granger averaging 29.0 points in three games.
The Pacers and Knicks both got breakout performances from unlikely sources in their last games.
Rookie Paul George had season highs of 13 points and seven rebounds Friday after seeing action once in the Pacers' previous 17 games.
"I must prepare my mind to be ready to play every game," George said. "A lot of confidence was built off this game tonight. I don't want to be too high or too low. I want to keep working and hopefully keep progressing."
Former Pacers first-round pick Shawne Williams, meanwhile, had a season-high 15 points Thursday for the Knicks. Williams has appeared in 15 straight games after not seeing action in New York's first 17.

Waiver and Transfer/Advanced Standing Policies
The program is full time regardless of waivers. Except for transfer students, there is no advanced standing, and the program cannot be shortened nor the tuition reduced.
Individual required courses may be waived: (a) if a student submits evidence of having successfully passed an equivalent graduate level course in area. Equivalent is defined as one that shares at least 75 percent of the current content and readings with an Antioch University New England Department of Clinical Psychology course; or (b) by passing an examination (written and/or oral) administered by department faculty. No transfer credits or advanced standing are awarded by the Doctoral Program for master's level work, only waivers. Neither waivers nor transfer credits are awarded for practica, case conferences, or advanced electives.
All doctoral students must maintain a full-time load. Students who waive a course must take another in its place. Typically, students who waive courses take the next requirement available in that time slot. Students who therefore have completed elements of the curriculum early use that time to make additional progress on their dissertation. Waivers are only evaluated for matriculated students. Advanced electives are never waived.
Transfer admission with advanced standing is possible on a space available basis by permission only for those students who are in good standing in another APA accredited doctoral program in clinical psychology. Advanced standing means that it is possible for students to have less than four years of coursework. Since the majority of our courses are offered on Mondays, the practical possibility of transfer students graduating with less than four years of coursework depends on a particular applicant's previous coursework and how the remaining requirements fit into the times Antioch University New England's courses are offered. A separate admissions process for transfer applicants must be completed followed by an interview to gain transfer admission, and this may occur at other times of the year than the general admission process. This process is described in the Clinical Psychology Handbook and is available on request. Students interested in transferring should contact the Director of Student Affairs for further information and for permission to apply.
Required Purchase of Computer and FirstClass Access
The PsyD Program requires all students to purchase a computer for themselves and to have Internet access for communication with the AUNE community. Antioch University New England has an email and conferencing system based on FirstClass, and each student is provided with an email account. The requirement also facilitates enhanced productivity, and the creation of publication-quality written work as well as access to regional and international professional networks.
Special Requirements for all programs in the Department of Clinical Psychology
Because these are programs of professional preparation, students must meet professional as well as academic standards. The Department of Clinical Psychology adheres to the American Psychological Association's code of ethics, and also requires that students manage their personal issues so as not to affect their academic or clinical work. Where the faculty have questions about a student's personal/professional competence or ethical conduct, the matter will be discussed with him or her before any administrative action is taken. This will ensure a more productive resolution.
Changing State Licensing Requirements
AUNE, while not responsible for actions of external licensing agencies, does intend to support students, both current and graduates. In doing so, we strive to be fair and consistent to all students. Therefore, if licensing requirements are enacted by an external agency which exceed the current degree requirements, the following options are available:
- For current students, additional coursework to satisfy licensing requirements (either existing courses or in some cases SISs).
- For graduates, the opportunity to enroll as a Special Student in either the appropriate course or, as an exception, in an SIS, at the following rate:
50% of the Special Student doctoral per credit fee, plus a comprehensive fee for application, registration and processing. This charge is less than the current per credit fee for matriculated doctoral students.

Next foreign worry: MaliDecember 10,2012As far as military involvement is concerned, Iraq should soon take its place in Americas crowded rear-view mirror. Next year, provided President Obama keeps his promise, we may also be referring to Afghanistan in the past tense.
Yet, unfortunately, this is no time to relax. Judging by recent developments, Mali a sprawling, landlocked former French colony in western Africa is in line to become our nations next big foreign worry as terrorists, some of them associated with al-Qaida, destabilize the region.
To many in the west, Mali is best known as the country with a city named Timbuktu. Like Afghanistan before it, the very name of the place has always carried with it a certain sense of distance, mystery and even (to us) irrelevance. But the White House is surely keeping a close eye on the situation there as it seems to worsen day by day.
The United Nations and France have joined the United States in seeking a way to drive extremists out of Malis northern region and thus, they hope, prevent the creation of yet another operating base for jihadists who are determined to wage war against western values and institutions.
Malis transitional government, in office only since a military coup earlier this year, is described as weak and lacking legitimacy. Its army is poorly equipped and in a state of disarray. According to a British press report published Sunday, African and Western powers are already in disagreement over the timing and goals of a military strike to dislodge the jihadists.
Also unclear is whether regional African forces are strong enough to defeat well-armed militants in desert terrain the size of Texas without help on the ground from Western armies, the report in The Independent, a London newspaper, continued.
In other words, here we go again. The report declares that the momentum for a military intervention has surged in the region and among Western powers, as the radical Islamists and al-Qaida militants have deepened their grip over the north.
Although the experts predict that any military strike is months away, both Washington and Paris are active diplomatically in encouraging African nations to take the lead, just as they did most recently in Somalia, where Islamist radicals also had seized much of the country. In response, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has approved a 3,300-member force for northern Mali.
However, unlike Somalia, whose neighbors supported military action, not all of Malis neighbors would welcome intervention. Nigeria has its own Islamist threat from the notorious Boko Haram organization while Algeria fears a military strike could drive northern Malis militants back into Algeria, where Islamist extremists battled the government in the 1990s.
If the Western countries send troops, that will be fine, an extremist told a British journalist. We are prepared for war. If they dont come here, one day we will attack them. If we cannot do this in our time, our sons and the next generation will attack the West.
American experts see al-Qaida involvement in the Islamic terrorism networks North and West Africa affiliate, AQIM, and that it participated in the September attack on the United States mission in Libya that killed Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans.
An estimated 2,000 marchers in Malis capital last weekend urged the United Nations Security Council to pass a resolution calling for a military campaign to push out the Islamists. Perhaps that makes sense, but as weve learned from Iraq and Afghanistan, military force carries no guarantee of the desired results.MORE IN CommentarySure, you can buy your uncle a necktie that he wont wear, or your niece an Amazon certificate...

State helps on old insurance policiesApril 10,2013
State helps on old
insurance policies
MONTPELIER State Treasurer Beth Pearce announced Tuesday new efforts to assist Vermonters in claiming life insurance benefits.
The treasurers office has received more than $2.2 million in unclaimed property as the result of a multistate initiative to require life insurance companies to pay out on old, sometimes forgotten, policies.
This money represents previously unreported insurance accounts that were being held by companies because no one had claimed them at the time the policyholder died, Pearce said. Money we have received to date represents amounts due to approximately 2,500 Vermonters.
While Vermonters may search online through unclaimed property for old insurance policy benefits that have been received by the treasurers office, national estimates indicate there are potentially many more policies that have not yet been surrendered.
The state treasurers office has created a special website with guidelines to assist people in searching for old, forgotten policies. Go to www.missingmoney.vermont.gov and click on the page, Life Insurance Policies.
In addition, the treasurers office has advocated for further action by insurance companies to assure that beneficiaries receive funds.
Vermonters can search for unclaimed property online or call the Unclaimed Property Division at 828-2407 or 800-642-3191.
There is no charge to claim funds through the treasurers office.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt.

Ephrata home houses 350 years of history
The town of George, Washington is only 23 miles from Ephrata, but it's in Ephrata where you'll find a direct link to our country's first president.
Inside an old house now used for special gatherings, a rich history reaching all the way back through history.
Mike Scellick bought the Nat Washington Inn, named after the former state senator. He bought the house from Nat's young sons, Nat and Tom, just over two years ago and has spent thousand of dollars restoring it.
"We had no idea that anybody would have an interest in the house, because it was my dad's house," said Tom Washington. "I can't believe he's done all the things he's done. It's just amazing."
Even more amazing after it was revealed that George Washington, our country's first president, is Senator Nat Washington's fifth great-uncle.
A picture of George Washington's nephew Bushrod now hangs in the Smithsonian, but for decades it hung in the inn where Bushrod moved his family from West Virginia.
"They came out to be orchardists," said Scellick, "They read about all these apples out here."
The family first arrived in Spokane before eventually homesteading right where Grand Coulee Dam now sits.
Bushrod's son Nathaniel was the first president of the Grand Coulee Dam Administration. In 1920 he traveled to San Francisco to lobby for it's construction and met future president Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
And throughout all of this, the Washington family preserved artifacts from as far back as 1662.
"It was all brought out from West Virginia and it was kept in a little corner in a lock and key that Nat Washington had," Scellick said.
Among the artifacts, pieces of George Washington's coffin. His gunter scale and his compass were also kept safe in the Ephrata home. Dozens of items like these were sold for thousands at a heritage auction two years ago, but the history remains with the house.
"There's still, I feel, ten more years of pulling things out and discovering all the rich history of this house and having the time and then sharing it with the community. Sharing it with everybody," Scellick said.
Tom Washington was flooded with emotion the first time he saw the new version of his old house for the first time.
"It was an amazing experience. I just can't describe what it has meant to our family, what Mike has done," he said.
And to Mike, preserving a family's legacy that goes all the way back to the father of our country is what's most important.
"It's not a responsibility, it's just in my heart and it will always be there."

It was organised following co-operation between the Greek rugby league committee and the Serbian Rugby League Federation.
"I would like to thank the RLEF for the first ever course to take place in Greece," said Pantazidis, who is also the president of the committee which is currently working with the Greek culture ministry to register a Hellenic Rugby League Federation. "Five new coaches had the chance to get much more knowledge about our sport."
Significantly, the course was the first controlled by one of the new corps of RLEF-trained tutors, who are products of the federation's three-year Technical Strategy. Serbia's Marko Jankovic led on the delivery, supported by Central and Eastern Europe Director, Jovan Vujosevic.
"They transferred to us their experience and the ethics of rugby league," continued Pantazidis. "We hope that this is the first step towards meaningful development."

Enterprise docks with a strange, automated repair space station, which proves too good to be true.
Summary Edit
Following an encounter with a Romulan mine, Enterprise has suffered damage which requires extensive repairs. In fact, Trip Tucker estimates that he would need three to four months to complete the repairs, assuming they could even find tritanium alloy. Moreover, the damage is so extensive that Enterprise cannot travel faster than warp 2.1, which would take Enterprise about a decade to reach the Jupiter Station, and the ship is essentially dead in space.
Given their dire situation, Captain Archer orders Hoshi Sato to send out a distress call asking for assistance with repairs. The call is answered by a Tellarite freighter, which points them to a repair station. When Enterprise arrives at the station, they find it to be completely automated and quite sophisticated: it can adapt its environment to its guests and possesses impressive technology such as a food replicator, a kind of protoplaser, and more. Even more interesting is the station's offer to completely repair the ship in less than a day and a half in exchange for a choice of several nearly trivial compensations; after discussing the loss of any irreplaceable items, they settle on an exchange of two hundred liters of warp plasma.
Following a great first impression, Archer slowly discovers that all is indeed too good to be true, and surmises that something definitely does not feel right. While the station does not seem to pose any immediate threat to the ship or crew, it turns out to be very self-protective: Tucker and Malcolm Reed are teleported back to Enterprise when they attempt to learn more about its computer core.
The situation appears to have taken a tragic turn when Ensign Mayweather is found dead in launch bay 1. The evidence suggests that he disobeyed orders to stay out of the sections under repair, leading to his death by isolytic shock. However, Archer refuses to believe that Mayweather was that foolish. The autopsy confirms the captain's doubts: the body is not Mayweather's, but that of a near-perfect replica: even if Mayweather was dead, there would still be microorganisms (from a Rigelian fever vaccine recently administered ship-wide after a crewmember was infected with the disease) living in the bloodstream, but they are also dead - since they thrive on isolytic energy, the shock that killed Mayweather would have, if anything, increased their number. Doctor Phlox suggests that replicating living organisms is beyond the abilities of the station.
The captain decides to investigate the matter in more detail and assembles a team to reach the computer core. They easily disable the protective mechanisms and are surprised by what they find: dozens of unconscious bodies, connected to the computer, still alive but with irreversible brain damage, as their cerebral cortices have been reorganized by the station's core.
When they unplug Mayweather, the station turns hostile. With everyone finally back aboard Enterprise, the station refuses to let the ship disembark. It threatens to destroy the ship, locking out the crew from all systems.
Archer still has an ace up his sleeve, however, as he had arranged to place a detonator next to the warp plasma canisters that were delivered as payment for the repairs. The detonator ignites the plasma and seemingly destroys the station, finally allowing Enterprise to escape, repaired and with its entire crew.
As Enterprise warps away, however, some parts of the repair station that had been left in wrecks slowly come together and begin repairing themselves...
Log entries Edit
- "Captain's starlog, supplemental. It's been almost four days since the incident in the Romulan minefield. Repair teams have been working around the clock. Nerves are definitely frayed."
Memorable quotes Edit
"We've answered enough calls for help over the past year - it's time someone returned the favor."
- - Archer
"It can't be ethical to cause a patient this much pain."
"It's unethical to harm a patient; I can inflict as much pain as I like."
- - Reed and Phlox
"Your inquiry was not recognized."
- - Automated repair station
"Evenin' subcommander!"
- - Tucker, after he and Reed are transported onto the bridge
"It might comfort you to know, he felt very little pain - an isolytic shock instantly impairs the...(the doctor starts to lose concentration when he looks at his PADD) the nervous...(looks up at the biobed scan) that's odd...they're dead! All of them!"
- - Phlox, comforting a distraught Sato during Mayweather's autopsy, only to realize her grief might be premature
"Did you find something?"
"As a matter of fact, I did - this is not Ensign Mayweather!"
- - Archer and Phlox, revealing the shocking truth
"It's ironic, in a way. The station can duplicate a dead Human body in all its exquisite detail, yet a living, simple one-celled organism is beyond its capability."
- - Phlox describing the station's bio-replicator
"The station's got us by the thrusters."
- - Tucker, as Enterprise is trying to get away from the repair station
"You look pretty good for a dead guy."
- - Archer, to Mayweather
"I think it's time we deliver our payment."
- - Archer, ordering Reed to ignite the warp plasma on the station
"But what about all those other people?"
"According to T'Pol's scans, most of them had been there for... years. The damage to their brains was irreversible."
- - Mayweather, concerned for the other lifeforms kidnapped by the station, and Phlox
Background Information Edit
- In the audio commentary for this episode, the writers reveal that this episode was an attempt to diverge from previous episodes of Star Trek in which a ship is critically damaged in one episode, but miraculously repaired in the next, with no mention of repair work.
- This episode also shows taken-for-granted Federation technologies, such as the food replicator and medical regenerator, before Starfleet has devised them for themselves.
- The automated repair station's medical re-generator is a modified reuse of the exocomp from TNG: "The Quality of Life".
- The prop in the middle of the diagnostic room is a re-use of the artificial intelligence from the episode VOY: "Think Tank".
- The access tunnel hatch seems to be nothing more than a white furnace filter, designed and marketed by 3M.
- Ensign Mayweather has a model of the Nomad probe, in its initial configuration, in his quarters.
- Among the many alien bodies are a Klingon, a Vulcan, a Cardassian, a Xepolite, a species that closely resembles the Vaadwaur, and a member of Kago-Darr's species. This marks the only appearance of the Cardassians in Star Trek: Enterprise, although they are later mentioned in ENT: "Observer Effect".
- Roxann Dawson not only directs this episode, but also performs as the voice of the automated station. Previously, she played the Cardassian computer in VOY: "Dreadnought" (although in that case it was specifically stated that B'Elanna Torres, also played by Dawson, had reprogrammed Dreadnought's original computer voice to her own out of frustration at the original voice).
- This episode was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Visual Effects for a Series.
- Several costumes and props from this episode were sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay, including a diagnosis hologram component from the automated repair station. [1]
- The plot of this episode continues on from "Minefield", with Enterprise seeking repairs after being damaged in that episode, as well as Reed still recuperating from the injuries suffered during the encounter. This is one of relatively few episodes outside of the Xindi arc to carry on directly from the previous episode without being a two-parter.
- Trip Tucker makes reference to scratching the hull in an inspection pod. This is reference to ENT: "Broken Bow", where he does indeed scratch the hull. "Broken Bow" took place about a year before this episode, and the time reference is correct.

Individual investors in the United States have access to a wide selection of investment opportunities, including international investments. The SEC's Office of Investor Education and Advocacy is issuing this Investor Bulletin to help educate investors about international investing. This Investor Bulletin describes ways individual investors may obtain information about international investments— including special factors to consider when investing internationally.
Should I consider international investments?
Two of the chief reasons individual investors invest internationally are:
- diversification (spreading your investment risk among foreign companies and markets in addition to U.S. companies and markets); and
- growth (taking advantage of the potential for growth in some foreign economies, particularly in emerging markets).
Investors should consider various factors when assessing potential investments, be they domestic or international.
International investment returns may move in a different direction, or at a different pace, than U.S. investment returns. Including exposure to both domestic and foreign securities in your portfolio may reduce the risk that you will lose money if there is a drop in U.S. investment returns and your portfolio's overall investment returns over time may have less volatility. Keep in mind that with globalization, markets are increasingly intertwined across borders. Investors should balance these considerations along with factors unique to international investing, including those described below.
How can I invest internationally?
There are a number of ways individual investors may gain exposure to international investments. As with domestic investments, investors should first learn as much as they can about an investment.
Mutual funds. There are different kinds of mutual funds that invest in foreign securities, including: global and international funds (that invest in companies and businesses outside of the United States); regional or country funds (that invest in a particular region or country); or international index funds (that seek to track the results of a particular foreign market or international index). Investing through mutual funds may reduce some of the potential risks of investing internationally because mutual funds provide more diversification than most investors could achieve on their own. If you want to learn more about investing in these types of mutual funds, as well as in mutual funds generally, information is available in Mutual Funds – A Guide for Investors.
Exchange-traded funds. An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is a type of investment that typically has an objective to achieve the same return as a particular market index. ETFs are listed on stock exchanges and, like stocks (and in contrast to mutual funds), trade throughout the trading day with fluctuating market prices. A share in an ETF that tracks an international or foreign index seeks to give an investor exposure to the performance of the underlying international or foreign stock or bond portfolio along with the ability to trade the ETF shares like any other exchange-traded security.
American depositary receipts. The stocks of most foreign companies that trade in U.S. markets are traded as American depositary receipts (ADRs) issued by U.S. depositary banks (rather than the actual foreign company stock). Each ADR represents one or more shares of a foreign stock or a fraction of a share. If you own an ADR you have the right to obtain the foreign stock it represents, but U.S. investors usually find it more convenient and cost-effective to own the ADR. The price of an ADR generally corresponds to the price of the foreign stock in its home market, adjusted for the ratio of ADRs to foreign company shares. Sometimes the terms "ADR" and "ADS" (for American depositary share) are used interchangeably.
U.S.-traded foreign stocks. Although most foreign stocks trade in the U.S. markets as ADRs, some foreign companies list their stock directly here as well as in their local market. For example, some Canadian stocks that are listed and trade on Canadian markets are also listed and trade directly in U.S. markets, rather than as ADRs. Some foreign companies list their securities in multiple markets, which may include U.S. markets. You can purchase ADRs and U.S.-listed foreign stocks that trade in the United States through your U.S. broker.
Trading on foreign markets. Your U.S. broker may be able to process an order for a company that only trades on a foreign securities market. These foreign companies are not likely to file reports with the SEC. The information available about these companies may be different than the information available about companies that file reports with the SEC. Moreover, the information may not be available in English.
Where can I find information about investing internationally?
You should learn as much as you can about an investment, and about an investment adviser or broker-dealer, before you invest. Tracking down information on international investments may require extra effort, but it will make you a more informed investor. One of the most important things to remember is to read and understand the information about an investment before you invest. Here are some sources of information to consider:
SEC reports. Foreign companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges or that publicly offer their securities in the United States must file reports with the SEC. The SEC requires these foreign companies to file electronically, so their reports are available through the SEC's EDGAR website at www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html at no charge. However, if the company's securities trade on the over-the-counter markets in the United States rather than on a stock exchange, the company may not be required to file reports with the SEC.
Mutual fund firms. You can get the prospectus for a particular mutual fund directly from the mutual fund firm. Many firms also have websites and phone lines that provide helpful information about international investing.
Broker-dealers and investment advisers. Your broker or investment adviser may have research reports on particular foreign companies, individual countries or geographic regions. Ask whether updated reports are available on a regular basis. Your broker or investment adviser also may be able to provide you with copies of SEC reports and other information.
Foreign companies. Foreign companies often prepare annual reports, and some, but not all, companies also publish an English language version of their annual report. Ask your broker for copies of the company's reports or check to see if they are available from the SEC. Some foreign companies post their annual reports and other financial information on their websites.
Foreign regulators. You may be able to learn more about a particular foreign public company by contacting the foreign securities regulator that oversees the markets in which that company's securities trade. You may also be able to learn more about a particular foreign broker-dealer or foreign investment adviser by contacting the securities regulator with which the firm is registered. Many foreign securities regulators post information about issuers and registrants on their websites, including audited financial statements.
You will find a list of international securities regulators on the website of the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) at www.iosco.org. Foreign regulators sometimes post warnings about investment scams and information about their enforcement actions that can be useful to investors. IOSCO publishes investor alerts that it receives from its securities regulator members on its website.
You may already be investing internationally. In the United States, we have access to information and products from all over the world. Foreign companies can achieve the status of household names in the United States without public awareness that these companies are domiciled outside of the United States, or they may conduct a majority of their business operations abroad. You should conduct your own review of your holdings to determine whether the securities you own or are considering for purchase already provide you with international or foreign exposure.
What issues and risks should I consider when investing internationally?
While investing in any security requires careful consideration, international investing raises some special issues and risks. These include:
Access to different information. In some jurisdictions, the information provided by foreign companies is different than information provided by U.S. companies. The nature and frequency of disclosures required under foreign law may also be different from that of U.S. companies. In addition, foreign companies' financial statements may be prepared using a different set of accounting standards than companies use in the United States. Information foreign companies publish may not be in English.
Moreover, the financial statements of publicly listed companies in the United States, whether based in the United States or abroad, must be audited by an independent public accounting firm subject to oversight by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). The financial statements of a foreign company that is not publicly listed in the United States may or may not be subject to analogous auditing and auditor oversight arrangements.
Costs of international investments. International investing can be more expensive than investing in U.S. companies. In some countries there may be unexpected taxes, such as withholding taxes on dividends. In addition, transaction costs such as fees, broker's commissions and taxes may be higher than in U.S. markets. You also should be aware of the potential effects of currency conversion costs on your investment. Mutual funds that invest abroad may have higher fees and expenses than funds that invest in U.S. securities, in part because of the extra expense of trading in foreign markets.
Working with a broker or investment adviser. If you are working with a broker, make sure the broker is registered with the SEC. It is against the law for a broker, foreign or domestic, to contact you and solicit your investment unless it is registered with the SEC. You can obtain information about a U.S.-registered broker by visiting FINRA's BrokerCheck website or calling FINRA's toll-free BrokerCheck hotline at (800) 289-9999. If you are working with a U.S.-registered investment adviser, you may be able to obtain information about the investment adviser by visiting the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) website. If you directly contact and work with a foreign broker not registered with the SEC, you may not have all the protections under the laws of the United States as would be the case if the broker were registered with the SEC.
Changes in currency exchange rates. A foreign investment also has foreign currency exchange risks. When the exchange rate between the foreign currency of an international investment and the U.S. dollar changes, it can increase or reduce your investment return in the foreign security. In fact, it is possible that a foreign investment may increase in value in its home market but, because of changing exchange rates, the value of that investment in U.S. dollars is actually lower. In addition to exchange rates, you should be aware that some countries might impose foreign currency controls that restrict or delay you from moving currency out of a country.
Changes in market value. All securities markets can experience dramatic changes in market value. One way to attempt to reduce the impact of these price changes is to be prepared to hold your investments through adverse times and sharp downturns in domestic or foreign markets, which may be long lasting.
Political, economic and social events. Depending on the country or region, it can be more difficult for individual investors to obtain information about and comprehensively analyze all the political, economic and social factors that influence a particular foreign market. These factors may provide diversification from a domestically-focused portfolio, but they may also contribute to the risk of international investing.
Different levels of liquidity. Some foreign markets may have lower trading volumes for securities or fewer listed companies than U.S. markets. Some foreign markets are open for shorter periods than U.S. markets. In addition, some countries may restrict the amount or type of securities that foreign investors may purchase. Where these factors exist, they can contribute to less liquidity when you want to sell and lead to difficulty finding a buyer.
Legal remedies. Where you purchase a security can impact whether you have, and where you can pursue, legal remedies against the foreign company or any other foreign-based entities involved in your transaction, such as a foreign broker. Even if you sue successfully in a U.S. court, you may not be able to collect on a U.S. judgment against a foreign company, entity or person. You may have to rely on legal remedies that are available in the home country, if any.
Morrison v. National Australia Bank
Investors should be mindful when either buying or selling securities on foreign securities exchanges or otherwise outside the United States, or entering into securities transactions with parties located outside the United States, that, as a result of a recent Supreme Court decision, Morrison v. National Australia Bank, investors may not have the ability to seek certain legal remedies in U.S. courts as private plaintiffs. Investors who purchase or sell securities outside the territory of the United States will generally not be able to bring suit as private plaintiffs in U.S. courts to address fraudulent activity that may occur in connection with these transactions—even if the fraudulent activities occur within the United States.
Please note, however, that the SEC's law enforcement authority with respect to fraudulent conduct within the United States, and conduct outside the United States that has a foreseeable substantial effect within the United States, is generally not subject to the limitations placed on private rights of action by the Morrison decision.
Investors who would like to provide information about fraud or wrongdoing involving potential violations of the U.S. securities laws may contact the SEC using the SEC's Tips, Complaints and Referrals Portal. SEC action may or may not lead to the investor receiving funds to redress any fraud.
Different market operations. Foreign markets may operate differently from the major U.S. trading markets. For example, there may be different time periods for clearance and settlement of securities transactions. Some foreign markets may not report securities trades within the same period as U.S. markets. Rules providing for the safekeeping of shares held by foreign custodian banks or depositories may differ from those in the United States. If a foreign custodian has credit problems or fails, shares purchased in a foreign market may have different levels of protection than provided under the laws of the United States.
The Office of Investor Education and Advocacy has provided this information as a service to investors. It is neither a legal interpretation nor a statement of SEC policy. If you have questions concerning the meaning or application of a particular law or rule, please consult with an attorney who specializes in securities law.

Senate Chairman Opens Door To Federal Legalized Pot
In the wake of new state laws legalizing the use of marijuana in Colorado and Washington state, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee plans to hold a hearing on the matter, and left open the potential for federal law to mimic that found in Colorado and Washington. Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) Thursday released a copy of a letter written earlier to drug czar Gil Kerlikowske, asking how the Obama administration plans to use federal resources in light of the new state laws, as well as what recommendations the agency is making to the Department of Justice. In particular, Leahy wants assurance from the administration that state officials responsible for the licensing of marijuana retailers will face no criminal penalties … Continue reading

Riverside Elementary School is celebrating after winning a $10 thousand classroom makeover.
Fifth grade teacher Mindy Shaw was shaking when she got the call she had been waiting more than a month for. It was from the Great American Classroom Makeover, letting her know she had won $10 thousand to redo the school's computer lab.
"I've been here fourteen years, and it's been here the entire time," Shaw said. "A lot of the times it will take 20 minutes for a computer to boot up, so we have signs like 'no internet,' 'will not boot up,' or 'doesn't work.'"
But instead of complaining about a pile of broken parts, Shaw did something about it. She entered into a national contest for a classroom makeover.
Five-hundred and fifty schools applied. Riverside made the top ten, but an online vote decided the winner. Shaw called everyone, even the governor, to vote for Riverside.
"I think you need to show children just because something is out there and you can't have a shot at it, it doesn't hurt to try," she said.
Riverside received more than 29-thousand votes, and win by a landslide. Shaw got the call Monday morning with the good news.
"I put my head on the desk and just cried and the kids cheered. It will be a really cool moment. I will never forget it," Shaw said.
"We are just amazed," said school principal Lynn Rowse. "Who would think our little school in Elk, Washington would beat out ten other schools nationally and win a prize like this."
Officials with the Great American Classroom Makeover will be here next month to present Mindy with a big check for $10 thousand.

When the film "Thanks for Sharing" opens, we see the always studly Mark Ruffalo praying on his knees bedside, then eating a bowl of cereal by himself in his nicely furnished New York apartment. Why would a guy this good looking be all by himself? Recent break up? Bachelor by choice? No and no. Turns out, Ruffalo's character, Adam, is in a self-imposed state of singledom. He's been "sober" for five years, he reveals, but it isn't alcohol that's his addiction, it's sex.
"Thanks for Sharing," the directorial debut by Stuart Blumberg, one of the writers behind "The Kids Are All Right," which also starred Ruffalo, provides the same tempo and tone as "Kids," which was nominated for an Oscar in 2011. It's a deep dive into the lives of four characters that have been forced, for some reason or another, into a Sex Addicts Anonymous 12-step program – some went willingly after hitting rock bottom, others were court ordered to participate.
The dimension of the characters, especially the 12-steppers, is what keeps Blumberg's script (co-written with Matt Winston) from getting too preachy. There's Josh ("Book of Mormon") Gad, a slovenly emergency room doctor named Neil whose ethics are less than above board because of his sex addiction. The last straw is when his female boss discovers a wrist camera that he has been using to capture video of a shot up the chief of staff's dress. His relationship with his mother, however, is downright creepy and somewhat unnecessary as it brevity doesn't further any of the plotline.
Tim Robbins plays the wise sage of the group, who spouts Alcoholic Anonymous fortune cookie phrases, and is the model sponsor for the addicts who need help staying on the wagon. He's the reformed addict-alcoholic whose wife, played by Joely Richardson, has stuck by him despite his passing Hepatitis C to her and whose relationship with his alcoholic and drug addicted son (Patrick Fugit) is always on the outs.
Alecia Moore (a.k.a. rocker Pink) makes an impressive acting debut as a hairdresser whose sexual appetite is rampant and who befriends an unlikely guy pal in Neil (Gad).
When Adam (Ruffalo) meets Phoebe (Gwyneth Paltrow) almost midway into the film, yet another cog enters into this already complicated wheel. She's a breast cancer survivor who has had relationships with addicts in the past, and doesn't care for a repeat performance. Her character is probably the thinnest drawn and a scene where she dons lingerie a la Frederic's of Hollywood and attempts to perform a lap dance is laughable in its non believability. She utters the line, "I'm a very sexual person," but Paltrow lacks any real exuding of sexuality up to that point. She's more peaches and cream, than whipped cream.
Yet, each of the characters, even hers, has a likeability factor and their struggles are true to heart. Blumberg has a knack for these character studies as he proved so well in "Kids."
"Thanks for Sharing" has its share of formulaic set ups, but it's still worth raising a glass in its honest portrayal of the human struggle of addiction in any form.

BSC's Dr. Tesfaye Belay Receives Energy Conservation Grant from Thurgood Marshall College Fund/Dept of Energy
CreatedThursday, August 09 2012
Created byJim Nelson/Media Relations - (304) 327-4103 firstname.lastname@example.com
(Bluefield)—Dr. Tesfaye Belay, a faculty member at Bluefield State College, was selected to receive a $100,000 "Energy Conservation Grant" from the Thurgood Marshall College Fund/Dept of Energy. The grant will cover the cost of a research project to promote adopting solar energy to illuminate a primary parking area at the College, train BSC students in solar panel installation technology, illustrate how an energy conservation program can benefit students, administration and community, and partner with local high schools to advance STEM (Science/Technology/Engineering/Mathematics) education through a student pipeline establishment.
Dr. Belay has established a visiting research professorship and collaboration with Dr. Jih-Sheng (Jason) Lai, James S. Tucker/Professor, and Director, Future Energy Electronics Center in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. Dr. Lai's research group will train BSC students to install solar panels by taking part in the installation procedures and management of performance of the panels. Following at least five sets of training sessions, students will install a solar panel on a simulated system. The students will then practice the actual installation process under the supervision of Dr. Lai's research group to determine readiness for a career and certification in solar energy technology.
In the administration of the research project, Dr. Belay will be joined by Professors Roy Pruett and Dr. Anthony Woart of BSC. Professor Pruett will lead the selection of qualified engineering students to participate in solar panel utilization and oversee the proper implementation of all installation procedures of the solar panel process. Dr. Woart will work in collaboration with Dr. Belay and Professor Pruett, while also serving as a liaison between the college and local high schools. He will reach out to administrators and recruit students from the local high schools to enroll at BSC. "Establishing partnerships with area high schools will aid in the preparation and enhancement of post-high school education," Dr. Belay observed. Activities in support of this goal include conducting student orientations on STEM fields in high school campuses, and establishing a summer program experience beyond the summer visit to Bluefield State College.
This marks the second grant that Dr. Belay has received from the Thurgood Marshall College Fund/Department of Energy.

Scroll/Cycle Function (S series)
I'd love to buy a Walkman S544, but none of the reviews I've seen give much info on how effective you can scroll through different songs. Could any users share some info on that?
For users of multiple mp3 players, which other mp3 player would you recommend over the Walkman? (regardless of brand & under $80) The things I value are the scroll function, battery life, and overall durability.
Thank you all very much!
Well, I have an S545.
If by scrolling, you mean going through the file list, it's pretty straightforward.
If you go by any of the filters (all files, folders, artists, playlists, etc.), it will give an alphabetical list, separated in to "pages" for each letter and number. Up and down will go up and down the list, while left and right will move the screen over to the next letter. You can scroll up and down into the next letter, if you want.
There is the option to use album art as a way to browse... but I've never been able to get all the album art to properly display. There seems to be some sort of specific settings or something that the Walkman line likes. I have embedded album art show up sometimes, and separate image files of different sizes and formats are a coin-toss. There doesn't seem to be any common resolution, file size or format that it likes. I've never been able to get an answer as to what the Walkman S or A-series needs in order to have album art display properly.
(This is kind of a moot point, as the screen is hardly large enough or of a high enough resolution to make album art appear as little more than a slightly blurry icon. It's best to just forget album art scrolling. It's handled far better in other Walkman models, like the A-series.)
I do find, however, that lots of smaller files tends to make the device slow down a little. Unless you are incredibly impatient and even a half second is going to drive you nuts, it's hardly noticeable and most certainly not a deal-breaker. With 8 GBs on the S544, you shouldn't run into this problem.
As for an alternative, you're going to hear "Clip+/Clip Zip" a lot. I'll leave the reason why to the ones that suggest it.
Thank you very much for the reply!
I've never used any filters, it's just one long list for me. :cool:
Here's the context I'm in: I was gifted a ripped-off mp3 player from my very well intentioned mom. Each file was a click on a button, if I wanted to listen to file #258 I'd have to click that many times.
So, to avoid any chance of a repeat, I need some confirmation about how/whether the Walkman can go through a large list (about 1K songs) without imposing a threat to overall enjoyability.
Thank you very much, again!:):):D

Massage therapists, uniteJuly 31,2013
Massage therapists, unite
I am writing in response to the article in the July 26 Times Argus regarding Mayor Lauzons idea of how to control the threat of prostitution and human trafficking in Barre.
I have been a massage therapist for 26 years. I have more than 1,200 hours of training and am nationally certified. I would be happy to show you my license and documented training, but a criminal background check? Fingerprinting? My weight? Really?? I wonder if other Barre businesses would comply with these same requirements to operate in Barre. Do you exert this much scrutiny to Planet Rock?
I call out to all central Vermont massage therapists who also oppose the proposed ordinance to join me at the first public forum Tuesday at City Hall at 7 p.m. to voice your thoughts and concerns.
Mayor Lauzon looks at this as an ounce of prevention-type ordinance. Seems to me its more like a ton.

University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minn., has replaced a fajita bar in one of its dining halls with a superfoods bar, Tommie Media reports.
Aiming to provide more options for athletes and students with dietary restrictions, the new bar offers diners a choice of protein with a variety of toppings, such as beans, fruit, couscous and quinoa.
The superfoods bar has made a few appearances on campus since it was first tried for the school's football players last summer.

Y-Time: Exercise, With A Sense Of Humor
When Norm Honeyman was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease about two years ago, he decided he needed to know more about it.
So, he read "Parkinson's For Dummies" and learned that people with the disease need two things: exercise and a sense of humor.
For the exercise, he turned to the Ready To Be Fit program at the downtown YMCA, which allows him to work at his pace and at a level that works for him.
He says exercise has given him back the quality of life he enjoys.
As for the sense of humor, click on the picture to see for yourself.
