Al-Wasat founder dies in custody in Bahrain
New York, April 15, 2011--The Committee to Protect Journalists called on Bahraini authorities today to conduct an immediate and transparent investigation into the death in state custody of Karim Fakhrawi, left, founder and board member of Al-Wasat, the country's premier independent daily.
Fakhrawi died Tuesday, a week after he was apparently taken into custody, according to news reports. Human rights defenders told CPJ that Fakhrawi had gone to a police station on April 5 to complain that authorities were about to bulldoze his house.

On Saturday, I did my first cut out, out of a rental house (I work for the rental agency) that had called. Going into my second year of beekeeping, I was excited to try out a cut-out, with the help of one of the guys on our maintenance staff. We set up scaffolding (6 feet high) and Saturday turned out to be a beautiful, sunny day in the 70's, perfect weather. The bees POURED out of the wall when the maintenance guy took the siding off the wall. They were NOT very happy when we started pulling off the the walls and disturbing their colony and sucking them up in the bee vac! I got stung a few times (my ankle is still swollen up like a cantaloupe), but I was trying to work as fast I could cutting the combs and fitting and rubber-banding them into deep frames, as our maintenance guy kept pulling combs out of the wall.
It took about three hours, and there were STILL a lot of bees clustering by the walls, behind the chimney, so I wonder if we were able to retrieve all the comb. We realized it later that the bees may be in the attic, or behind the chimney, and the job may be over our heads... but we did as best as we could. I think I was surprised at how brutal a cut-out was for the bees. So many casualties, so many damaged combs (I was only able to get 9 deep frames of salvageable comb), and lots of stressed and angry bees! I'm inclined to think this hive won't make it, especially because I couldn't tell if we got the queen or if she survived.
I transferred them over out of the bee-vac yesterday - set them up with a new hive, next to my 2 other hives in the backyard. They were still VERY aggressive! Gave my husband a nasty sting below his eye (his eye this morning looked like my ankle)! Are bees usually this aggressive after a cut-out, being so stressed? They are darker in color than my docile Italians... the thought has crossed my mind that maybe they are partially africanized.... there have been reports in TN, just 4 hrs away. It's hard to say, but I'm going to leave them alone for at least a week or two before I check on them.
That said.... I have a new respect for beekeepers who do cut-outs on a regular basis! I think next time I'll call one of them.

Roster update on Araguz, Green, Ward, Cherry, etc..
Ravens part ways with 11, including Araguz, Green
Rimpf placed on IR
By Aaron Wilson
Contributing writer
OWINGS MILLS -- The Baltimore Ravens began trimming their roster down Friday prior to todays league-mandated 53-man limit, terminating the contract of veteran punter Leo Araguz, cutting 10 players and placing offensive guard Brian Rimpf on injured reserve with a hamstring injury.
That leaves Baltimore with 10 more transactions to execute by 4 p.m., the NFL deadline.
In perhaps their most prominent move, the Ravens released linebacker Roderick Green, a fifth-round draft pick in 2004 who has performed well on special teams and as a situational pass rusher.
Last season, Green registered a career-high 17 special-teams tackles and two sacks while playing in all 16 games.
Meanwhile, Baltimore waived defensive tackle Remi Ayodele, tight end Bobby Blizzard, safety Robb Butler, linebacker Jimmy Cottrell, offensive tackle Rob Droege, kicker Aaron Elling, wide receiver Travis LaTendresse, center Thatcher Szalay and defensive back Duvol Thompson.
Ellings departure is yet another indication that rookie Sam Koch will handle kickoff duties in addition to having beaten out Araguz for the punting job.
The sixth-round draft pick from Nebraska averaged 45.1 yards on 16 punts compared to Araguz output of a 37.7 average on 16 punts. Besides his hang-time, Koch also proved to be capable on kickoffs.
I thought I did really well, Koch said. It comes down to someone elses decision and hopefully I put some trust in their minds.
Against the Redskins, Koch averaged 52.2 yards on four punts while Araguz averaged 34 yards on three punts.
Hes consistently shown a lot, Billick said of Koch, who also kicked off three times without incident at FedEx Field. The ability to do both is a big asset.
Koch and his family want to make their residence in Westminster, where theyre currently renting a house, a permanent one.
Well probably keep on renting for now, Koch said. But theres always the possibility of buying a home if everything goes right. I'm very optimistic.
Placing Rimpf on injured reserve after he started seven games last season at right guard and cutting Szalay likely means that the Ravens are counting on the versatility of reserve interior blockers Jason Brown and Chris Chester.
The Ravens also reached injury settlements with safety B.J. Ward and receiver Matt Cherry, who were placed on injured reserve earlier this week.
Re: Roster update on Araguz, Green, Ward, Cherry, etc..
The Green cut suprises me.
Mark it down he will be in Cleveland before Labor Day.
I am the only person on this message board right now. Damn insomnia."This year, our attitude when were on the field is were attacking, we want to put points on the board and then let our defense pin their ears back and have at it."

Re: Roster update on Araguz, Green, Ward, Cherry, etc..
it'll be interesting to see if Araguz gets a tryout with the Redskins...they aren't happy with Frost and they saw him this past week..
When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. Thats the Baltimore Raven way. - Steve Smith Sr.
Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!
Re: Roster update on Araguz, Green, Ward, Cherry, etc..
Frost is really bad. Wouldn't surprise me.
Re: Roster update on Araguz, Green, Ward, Cherry, etc..
I seriously hope Travis LaTendresse makes the practice squad. He was great the first 2 games and then didn't play at all the second 2. I'm hoping its because they didn't want other teams to have tape/interest in him.

(15 minutes or less)
Make a stand from wood or Tinkertoys™ (see the photo on page 14 and the diagrams below), or build a stand of your own design from available materials.
Cut a strip of aluminum foil measuring about 2 feet (60 cm) long and 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) wide. Tape one end of the foil strip to your support. Run the strip down and back up to the support, making a loop, then tape the other end in place. Be sure the ends of the strip do not touch.
Attach one clip lead to each battery terminal, but do not attach the other ends of the lead wires to the strip yet.
(15 minutes or more)
Touch the two clip leads to the ends of the foil strip. The descending and ascending portions of the loop will repel each other. The closer you can hang the descending and ascending portions of the loop to each other - without allowing them to touch - the larger the repulsion.
Now hang the foil strip from the support with the two ends overlapping, so they make a good electrical contact. Connect one of the clip leads to these overlapping ends. Separate the two sides of the loop and briefly touch the other clip to the bottom of the loop. Notice that the sides of the loop are attracted to each other when the current flows. (This step requires a little coordination and a delicate touch to clearly demonstrate that it is the current flow in the strips that makes them move together and not forces that you create when you touch the clip to the bottom of the loop.)
A current-carrying wire generates a magnetic field that circles the wire (See the "Circles of Magnetism I" Snack.)
When a current flows in a magnetic field, the field exerts forces on that current. (See the "Motor Effect" Snack.) So each current-carrying wire in this Snack generates a magnetic field at the position of the other wire and thus exerts a force on the current in the other wire. Two parallel wires will either attract or repel each other, depending on the direction of current flow in each wire. If both currents flow in the same direction, the wires will attract; if they flow in opposite directions, they will repel.
The forces produced on the aluminum foil are small. This is because the electrical current flowing through the foil is small, only a couple of amperes. Larger currents produce larger forces. The Exploratorium exhibit, for example, uses wires carrying 400 amperes, which produces forces that are more than 10,000 times stronger than the forces you produce with this Snack.
The ampere, the fundamental unit of electrical current, is defined by the force exerted by one wire on another. The definition of the ampere is as follows: A current of 1 ampere flowing in each of two infinitely long parallel wires separated by 1 meter will produce an attractive force of 2 x 10-7 newton on each 1-meter length of wire. For comparison, a force of 1 newton is approximately the weight of a quarterpound of hamburger.

I'm not sure what's going on with Ted Kretschmann. He is basically the only remaining commercial operator in Alabama, though the Normans I understand are back in business in north Crenshaw County. Ted was not at this year's Association meeting in Montgomery, at least I missed him if he was there. Looks like he hasn't posted since July 2012. He started beekeeping when he was 9 years old and worked up from a single hive to several thousand. He was president of the Alabama Beekeepers Association back in the early 90's(?). He certainly appears legit in what he has done and who he is. I'm not sure about his relationship with Russell though it seemed they did have some inside business "doings" at one time or another by some conversation in the forum. As for getting into something crooked with Russell....I don't think Ted would risk his reputation on a crackhead sissy scheme like RRussell put together. I just hope there is nothing wrong with his health or whatever that has stopped him from posting and going to the meetings.
...and you're right, Jim...I don't know Ted that well, but I know that he will speak his opinion on things.

Hasbro launches a poll to replace an old Monopoly piece with a new one
What will it be? Sink the battleship? Boot the boot? Sell the race car? Call it Survivor: Monopoly Edition. The 80-year-old game is losing one of its tokens forever. Soon, one of the eight Monopoly game pieces will be a piece of history.
Hasbro, the company who makes Monopoly, is leaving the future of the game's tokens in players' hands. The company launched a "Save Your Token" campaign on its website that directs users to a Facebook poll. Until February 5, players can vote for their favorite game piece: race car, iron, wheelbarrow, boot, top hat, thimble, battleship or Scottie dog. The token with the least votes will lose its spot on the board. If you would like to have your voice heard, ask your parents to cast a vote on Facebook.
Passing Go
What will the piece be replaced with? You can vote on that, too. The company is offering never-before-seen tokens up for grabs. The new token with the most votes will become the next gamepiece. The choices for the new piece include: toy robot, helicopter, cat, guitar and diamond ring.
USA Today reports Hasbro will ship a limited-run "Golden Token" version of the game for $18 in mid-February, sold exclusively through Target stores. The game will include all of the old tokens plus the five new ones. The new Monopoly game, starring the new token and without the old token, will be available later this summer.
Changing of the Charms
This is not the first time Monopoly has changed its game pieces. Charles Darrow, the game's inventor, first created Monopoly with four colored wood pawns. Those were changed to metal after Darrow's niece suggested using metal charms from a charm bracelet. Parker Brothers liked the idea and started selling the game in 1935.
In the early 1950s, the lantern, purse and rocking horse pieces were removed and replaced by Scottie dog, a guy riding a horse and a wheelbarrow. More recently, the cannon and horse tokens were pulled, dropping the piece count from 10 to eight. In all, Hasbro says there have been more than 20 tokens since the game was first introduced.
Which Monopoly token do you think should be voted off the current game board? Don't leave this one to chance! Cast your vote in the TFK poll below.

Please Please do not show this again. It was very painful to watch. I did my best to stick it out, but after half and hour I had enough. Carrie Underwood is a beautiful multi-talented singer. I admire her for her good works. Her singing was great for this performance…Her acting was terrible. It reminded me of Glenn Campbell. He was a great country star, but in True Grit the movie he should have stayed home. He was not an actor nor is Ms. Underwood.

Darger, Henry (1892-1973), USA
Henry Darger was born in Chicago, USA. In 1896 his mother died. The boy lived alone with his father for a year. He was then placed in a home, followed by an institution for the mentally handicapped in Lincoln, from which he ran away at the age of 17 on learning of his father's death. He went back to live in Chicago, where he rented a room and was taken on as a dish-washer and cleaner in hospitals of the city – a post he occupied until his retirement in 1963.
When he died his landlord, the photographer Nathan Lerner, discovered a 2,000-page autobiography, as well as a typed literary work amounting to more than 15,000 pages entitled In the Realms of the Unreal. It is accompanied by hundreds of huge watercolour drawings. His compositions feature heroines with male genitals, the seven 'Vivian Girls'. They borrow from colouring albums, comic strips and children's literature from the early 20th century. This colossal work occupied Henry Darger for more than 60 years. It is based on the collage technique, on tracing and on watercolours.

Authorities hoping for more clues in Ramsey jewelry store robbery
RAMSEY – A well-planned, stealthy executed mid-day heist at a Route 17 jewelry store earlier this week has investigators frustrated because few clues have materialized and tips are even more sparse.
And what information they do have is jumbled: footage from two video surveillance cameras within the shopping center are time-stamped incorrectly and out of sync, the thieves faces are covered, and two people seen running past as the robbers enter the store have failed to step forward.
The one new lead police are investigating: a dark-colored Audi was seen near the Lincoln Plaza shopping center at the same time Aydin Jewelry was robbed.
"It's very frustrating because we don't have a lot to go on," Poilce Chief Bryan Gurney said Friday.
Pictures of 109 of the items taken from Aydin Jewelry were released to the media Friday. It's only a partial list and values for the items have not been determined, Gurney said.
But authorities are hopeful that by making the public aware of the items more leads may be generated.
"I think these guys were so organized that they knew they were going to offload it so they went after the gold," Gurney said.
Gold was valued Friday at about $1,350 per ounce.
Two men entered the jewelry store on Route 17 South in the Lincoln Plaza shopping center Monday at about 11:22 a.m. Inside were the store's two owners, who are brothers, and their mother. The alleged robbers identified themselves as FBI agents investigating a "meth lab."
One was dressed in a dark jacket, blue button down shirt and tie. The other wore a blue Tyvek, or hazmat style, jumpsuit. Both had on goggles and respirator masks.
Video surveillance footage shows that the guy wearing the tie flashed a badge — similar to one used by FBI agents, but larger — at one of the owners, Gurney said, recounting more specific details of the crime.
The robber in the tie flashed the badge and walked toward the owner who is standing behind the counter. That's when the owner put his hands up and headed toward the thief, forcing him back, the chief said.
"I think he was trying to digest what was happening," Gurney said of the store owner.
That's when the guy wearing the tie pulled a gun from his right side, retreated from behind the counter and walked across the showroom to where the mother was standing and pointed the gun at her.
While that was happening, one owner went into a back office. The man brandishing the gun then ordered the mother into the back office and the man wearing the blue jumpsuit told the other owner to go in the back room.
The man wearing the blue jumpsuit then started emptying gold items from a display case. He grabbed a cup of coffee resting on top of the showcase and dumped it inside.
"I don't understand why he did that," Gurney said. "Maybe to dilute DNA."
He started grabbing gold coins, watches, engagement and wedding rings, among other items.
"It seems like he knew what he was looking for," the chief said.
The gun-wielding, tie-wearing man, meanwhile, is in the back-office with the two owners and their mother. He struggled to open the safe, which one of the owners had pushed closed after the men began robbing them. Finally, after both robbers tried unsuccessfully to open the safe, they untied one of the brothers and he opened it for them.
The man in the tie pulled a communication radio or cellphone from his belt to talk with a third party and the men fled with their bounty – more than 100 items and $5,000 to $10,000 in cash — in a black rolling backpack, Gurney said.
The robbers did not appear rushed and, Gurney said, he believes they were listening in on police radio frequencies.
The two men fled west on foot, toward the buffet restaurant, the same way they entered the shopping center, he said.
A dark-colored Audi was in the area when the men entered the store. Police have observed normal traffic in and out of Lincoln Plaza since the incident to see if the Audi may have been a customer at one of the stores or a parent dropping off a child at the nearby daycare. The Audi has not reappeared, Gurney said.
The four-door vehicle had no front license plate and appeared to be occupied by one person, Gurney said.
Among the hurdles law enforcement is facing is that the timestamps are wrong on video collected from the jewelry store and the nearby buffet.
Police asked on Tuesday for two people who are seen on video running through the parking lot as the robbers enter the jewelry store to come forward.
The pair is seen running east in the parking lot, directly past the alleged robbers.
They appear to be a woman carrying a black purse, wearing blue jeans and a dark jacket and a man wearing a dark coat, khaki pants and a wool hat, he said.
"They had to have seen them," Gurney said earlier this week. "I don't know if they're part of it. They certainly weren't dressed as a part of this whole thing."
"We're thinking possibly [the robbery suspects] might've told these people to leave the area because of an environmental hazard," Gurney said Tuesday.
Police are not releasing the video of the robbery because the victims are prevalent on the recording and they don't want their faces broadcast, Gurney said.
Several law enforcement agencies have been involved in the case, including the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office and the FBI, which ruled out a rouge agent pulling off the crime.
"We contacted all the different agencies that have had smash and grab things lately," Gurney said. "The one similarity among them is the pre-planning. They all were not crimes of opportunities."
But that's where the similarities end. Information obtained from other detectives and agencies also indicate that the Ramsey job likely isn't the same crew or method of operation.
The robbery is reminiscent of the YACS gangs, authorities said. The Yugoslavian, Albanian, Croatian, Serbian gang members have been known to work in the area.
"This was well thought out, they used communication devices, went after high value items," Gurney said, adding "but I'm not saying it has anything to do with them."
Anyone with information about the crime should call 201-327-2400, visit ramseypd.com or go to Ramsey Police headquarters at 25 N. Central Avenue.

I have just inherited hundred of used plastic frames. They have been stored in a barn for the last 3 years.
Most of the drawn comb on the frames has been removed, either by the last owner or from wax moth activity.
No wax moth evidence is currently present on the frames. How can these frames be rehabbed for use? Do they have to
have wax on them before the bees will use them? If so, what is the easiest way to apply it? Any suggestions appreciated!

A 29-year-old Sulphur woman has been charged with theft over $500, authorities said.
Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Kim Myers said Candace M. Johnson, 1207 Ravia Road, Lot 68, was arrested on Nov. 8.
"Deputies were dispatched to a convenience store on Beglis Parkway in Sulphur regarding an employee stealing from the company," Myers said in a news release. "Upon arrival, deputies spoke with the owner of the business who advised when checking the balance of the deposits made by the employees of the store on Nov. 5, she discovered over $800 cash was missing."
Myers said when detectives talked with Johnson, a cashier at the store, she confirmed she stole the money.
Johnson was released on a $1,000 bond set by Judge Wilford Carter.
Detective Michael Connor was the lead investigator.

Sounds good. You can roast it, although I have never tried it that way because I really like it steamed or stir-fried and sometimes when I steam it, I add a little soy/ginger/garlic.

LeBron to make Miami return on Christmas
New York, NY (Sports Network) - The NBA unveiled its full regular-season schedule on Wednesday night.
An extended All-Star break for the first time in league history was announced, but there will be plenty of intriguing matchups before the February showcase.
LeBron James returns to Miami on Christmas Day as his Cavaliers take on the Heat in one of five holiday games. James, of course, won two titles with the Heat before bolting back to Cleveland this offseason.
The remaining four games on Christmas are: Wizards-Knicks, Thunder-Spurs, Lakers-Bulls and Warriors-Clippers.
The Spurs will unveil their fifth championship banner on Oct. 28 against the Mavericks, one of three Opening Night games with the other two being Magic- Hornets and Rockets-Lakers.
The All-Star Game will take place at Madison Square Garden on February 15, with teams getting six days off for the break instead of the usual four.
The regular season ends on April 15, and the playoffs will start three days later.

Ford killed the Ranger in the US, expecting consumers to step up to the F150. Problem is, the F150 is too big and too expensive for many. How about a high mileage, light weight truck that's great for working around the house or maybe towing a small boat? The old Ranger fit the bill, except that it got lousy gas mileage (my 2001 3.0 V6 has never topped 20 mpg). If they can build full size trucks that get 25 mpg highway, why can't they build a small truck that gets over 30? They're not even trying!

The advantages are it will have a ton more flex off road, and that it will seem to have a smoother ride to it. The disadvantages are that the truck will have a tendency to wash out around corners, and body roll will be ridiculous.
I had a Ranger and would have liked to replace it with a new one after I sold it (it was old and worn out, after a long and heroic career), but Ford only quit selling Rangers in the U.S. (they still produce them for the foreign market). So I bought a 2013 F-150. For some of my needs a 4WD pickup is necessary.

In-person and Virtual Tours of On-Campus Housing Now Available
Prospective and future residents continue to tour Southwestern's new on-campus housing community as the countdown to the August opening continues. "As I toured the residences, I was able to see how beautiful they were in person – new, fully-furnished, energy saving appliances, and more," shared Megan France, a future resident and entering student. "With the courtyard, study rooms and other gathering areas, I know I will be able to escape into my books or hang out with a friend quite easily."
Megan toured the complex with her grandmother, who both live about 30 minutes from campus. While she and her grandmother inspected the model unit and checked on minor details, Megan also noted what she appreciated the most: the convenience of having an apartment so close to other resources on campus. "I will be working full time, so the fact that I could just walk to/from my apartment so easily was very appealing!"
Those who are unable to visit the Residences at 7th and see the complex for themselves can now view a video tour of the model unit on the website, in addition to new interior photos taken recently. For more information or any questions about leasing apartments, or to arrange an in-person tour and reserve your unit, contact the property manager at firstname.lastname@example.com or (213) 738-5500. To submit a leasing application online or view the tour, photos and other details, visit www.swlaw.edu/studenthousing.

Greg Ross
Harry Collins is distinguished research professor of sociology at Cardiff University, where he directs the Centre for the Study of Knowledge, Expertise, and Science. With Trevor Pinch, he is coauthor of Dr. Golem: What You Should Know about Medicine, forthcoming from the University of Chicago Press in fall 2005.
Could you tell us a bit about yourself?
I'm a professor at Cardiff University and have just published a 900-page book, Gravity's Shadow (University of Chicago Press, 2004), about the sociology of gravitational wave detection. A few years back, my little coauthored book The Golem: What You Should Know about Science (Cambridge University Press, 1998) caused quite a fuss and a debate in Physics Today. I've also written about other scientific fields, including a couple of books about the implications of the social nature of knowledge for artificial intelligence. Everything, including follow-ups to The Golem, is listed in the books section of my gravitational wave Web site, www.cardiff.ac.uk/socsi/gravwave. I really enjoy being a sociologist.
The way I do sociology has its roots in philosophy. Sociology of science overlaps with, and in my view displaces, many of the problems of philosophy of science. The trouble with sociology is that as soon as you claim you have found something out, everyone says they knew it already; the sociologist's equivalent of the Nobel prize is to be told, "That's just common sense." Still, even that's quite refreshing after years of being told, "It's all completely wrong/evil/nuts." Sociology is also enjoyable because it gives one a license to roam widely. Nowadays, hanging out with the gravitational wave community is one of the things that helps me keep my faith in academe when I get tired of the politics of my own subject.
What books are you currently reading (or have you just finished reading) for your work or for pleasure? Why did you choose them, and what do you think of them?
Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale (McClelland and Stewart, 1985) is a terrific book, so I'm trying another of hers, The Blind Assassin (McClelland & Stewart, 2000). Years ago I laughed through Philip Roth's Portnoy's Complaint (Random House, 1969), but I didn't get on with his more recent American Pastoral (Houghton Mifflin, 1997). Nevertheless, I've seen a lot of good reviews of Roth's latest stuff and am especially looking forward to reading The Plot Against America (Houghton Mifflin, 2004). While I wait for the paperback edition of that, I'm reading and enjoying his The Human Stain (Houghton Mifflin, 2000). I love watching cricket and used to play it badly; Derek Birley's A Social History of English Cricket (Aurum Press, 1999) is something for me to dip into from time to time. On the plane I've recently read Robert Harris's Pompeii (Hutchinson, 2003) and Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code (Doubleday, 2003), both of which shortened the journey nicely. Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time (Doubleday, 2003) is both an airplane book and something deeper.
When and where do you usually read (specific location, time of day, etc.)?
I read for a short while before I fall asleep, but I tend to read more seriously in bursts—during the holidays, on foreign trips (of which I do many) and especially in airports and on airplanes. If the book is gripping, I'll continue to read while I wait in line at immigration.
Who are your favorite writers (fiction, nonfiction or poetry)? Why?
I like authors who understand the beautiful simplicity of good English. I found out what this meant when I read Bertrand Russell's History of Western Philosophy (1945). Arthur Miller, in a rather different way, can express profound thoughts so unpretentiously that they seem obvious—see, especially, his autobiography, Timebends (Grove Press, 1987); I like everything that I know of Miller's, including his novel Focus (1945).
The problem with a question about writers, as opposed to books, is that few can sustain the quality across everything they write. But you can't go wrong with Robert Graves's historical novels, and for distraction I also like Patrick O'Brian.
I rarely read poetry, but for a long time found I could not read aloud Wilfrid Owen's "The Parable of the Old Man and the Young" without bursting into tears; it's like a hammer blow between the eyes.
What are the best books you've ever read? Explain.
I like books that force me into unfamiliar ways of seeing the world—I think that is the sociologist in me. William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury (1929) starts as a tough read, but as the book unfolds you slowly realize where you have been and that there was nothing difficult about it at all. Much easier is Thomas Berger's Little Big Man (Dial Press, 1964), which almost physically transforms you backward and forward between frontiersman and Native American (the film doesn't do it).
There are at least three great books that drag you into the horrors of the First World War: Robert Graves's Goodbye to All That (1929), Siegfried Sassoon's Memoirs of a Fox-hunting Man (1928) and Erich Maria Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front (1929). The still more profound dehumanization of the Second World War is harder to capture, but, in its understated way, Primo Levi's If This Is a Man (1959) takes you beyond the edge of endurance; one must also read The Truce (1965). Try not to touch them until you can read both in one session, interrupted only by sleep.
After Levi it seems frivolous to go on, but ... read John Le Carré's The Spy Who Came In from the Cold (1964) for a clever and gripping evocation of the Cold War (the film's even better). Franz Kafka's The Trial (1925), The Castle (1926) and "Metamorphosis" (1915) all fascinated me when I first started reading proper books. Another great book is Joseph Heller's Catch-22 (1961)—Kafka meets the Marx brothers, as it were.
With this motif in mind, Douglas Adams's superb The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Harmony Books, 1980) can be seen as the comic counterpart of Jorge Luis Borges's brilliant Labyrinths (1962).
What book has influenced you most? Explain how.
This is easy—it is a little book, written in 1958 by the Wittgenstein-inspired philosopher Peter Winch, called The Idea of a Social Science. It's short, and the words are easy, but the ideas are so difficult when first encountered that, when I first read it in 1967, it took me months to understand. Nowadays its main point—the identity of thinking and doing—seems entirely clear, and most years I will spend a few weeks trying to induct students into this way of understanding the world. The book affected me as a professional so deeply that I cannot imagine how I would have had the same career without it. It is only fair to say, however, that Peter Winch, who died in 1997, was once in the audience when I gave a paper at the University of Illinois. I began by explaining how much his book had influenced my life, but as I read the paper I could see Winch, as they say, "shifting uncomfortably in his chair." In the question session, it became obvious that he hated what I was taking to be the implications of his ideas. I don't know what it means, but that is how it was.
Name three books you want to read but haven't gotten to yet.
Philip Roth's The Plot Against America, Gerd Gigerenzer's Calculated Risks: How to Know When Numbers Deceive You (Simon & Schuster, 2002) and Alexander McCall Smith's The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency (Anchor Books, 1998).
What book recommendations do you have for young readers?
Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Johann Wyss's The Swiss Family Robinson (1872): Learn the value of doing stuff with your mind and with your hands. Then relax with Tales of the Arabian Nights and Homer's Odyssey. When you get a bit older, unrelax with George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-four (1949). After this, read Upton Sinclair's The Jungle (1906), followed by Alexander Solzhenitsyn's One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovitch (1962): It is important to understand the sausage from both ends!
What science book recommendations do you have for nonscientists?
We need to escape the clichés—wild men (Francis Crick and James Watson), lovable eccentrics (Patrick Moore), holy geniuses (Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking), mysteries of the universe (string theory, the mind of God) and so forth. A book that doesn't seem stamped from a mold is Gary Taubes's Nobel Dreams (Random House, 1986), but I know a lot of scientists find it sensationalized. If it counts as a science book, Andrew Hodges's biography Alan Turing: The Enigma of Intelligence (HarperCollins, 1985) quite brilliantly relates the man's thoughts to his life. But to stop being worthy for a moment, I still find the most fascinating science story to be the Manahattan Project—as described in, say, Richard Rhodes's The Making of the Atomic Bomb (Simon & Schuster, 1986).
In my own field, Trevor Pinch's Analog Days (Harvard University Press, 2002) is a good read. It explains the sociology of the rivalry between the Moog synthesizer, with its keyboard, and the more radical theremin; among other things, the book nicely recaptures the frontier music scene of the sixties and its characters. Tougher going is Donald Mackenzie's Mechanizing Proof (MIT Press, 2001), which brilliantly explores the two-way relationship between computers and mathematics in all its social-logical (see remarks on Winch) depth.
Name one book in your discipline that you would recommend for scientists outside your field. Explain your choice.
I'm going to cheat here, because it depends on whether my discipline is counted as sociology or sociology of science. If it's sociology, then Peter Berger's little Invitation to Sociology, published in 1963, explains a subject that everyone thinks they already own—"two drinks and it's anybody's," as I sometimes put it. Berger's book can be read with benefit by the beginner, but gets deeper as the years go by and you work your way into the subject.
If my discipline is sociology of science, then, I blush to say, the easiest approach to an answer to the question I am often asked, "How can there be a sociology of science?", is found in my coauthored book The Golem: What You Should Know About Science. I dare to say this because it's short and cheap; because, quite unprompted, a number of scientists have told me they liked it; and because it continues to sell steadily, if modestly, more than 10 years after it was first published.

A positron emission tomography (PET) scan is an imaging test that helps reveal how your tissues and organs are functioning. A PET scan uses a radioactive drug (tracer) to show this activity.
The tracer may be injected, swallowed or inhaled, depending on which organ or tissue is being studied by the PET scan. The tracer collects in areas of your body that have higher levels of chemical activity, which often correspond to areas of disease. On a PET scan, these areas show up as bright spots.
A PET scan is useful in revealing or evaluating several conditions, including some cancers, heart disease and brain disorders.
A PET scan is an effective way to examine the chemical activity in parts of your body. It may help identify a variety of conditions, including some cancers, heart disease and brain disorders. The pictures from a PET scan provide information different from that uncovered by other types of scans, such as computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A PET scan or a combined CT-PET scan enables your doctor to better diagnose your condition.
Cancer cells show up as bright spots on PET scans because they have a higher metabolic rate than do normal cells. PET scans may be useful in:
PET scans must be interpreted carefully because noncancerous conditions can look like cancer, and many types of cancer do not appear on PET scans. The types of cancer most likely to show up on PET scans include:
PET scans can reveal areas of decreased blood flow in the heart. This information can help you and your doctor decide, for example, whether you might benefit from a procedure to open clogged heart arteries (angioplasty) or coronary artery bypass surgery.
PET scans can be used to evaluate certain brain disorders, such as:
For your PET scan, a radioactive drug (tracer) will be put into your body. The amount of radiation you're exposed to is small, and the risk of negative effects from it is low. But the tracer might:
Talk with your doctor about the benefits and risks of a PET scan.
Tell your doctor:
Your doctor will give you detailed instructions on how to prepare for your scan. A general rule is to avoid strenuous exercise for a couple of days before the study and to stop eating a few hours before the scan.
The PET scanner is a large machine that looks a little like a giant doughnut standing upright, similar to a computerized tomography (CT) machine. You'll need about two hours for the procedure, which may be done on an outpatient basis (no overnight hospital stay). When you arrive for your scan, you may be asked to:
Then you will be given a radioactive drug (tracer). You may receive the drug by injection or be asked to inhale or swallow it, depending on the type of tracer being used. If the drug is injected, you may briefly feel a cold sensation moving up your arm. You'll need to wait 30 to 60 minutes for the tracer to be absorbed by your body.
When you are ready, you'll lie on a narrow, padded table that slides into the scanner. During the scan you'll need to lie very still so that the images aren't blurred. It takes about 30 minutes to complete the test. The machine makes buzzing and clicking sounds.
The test is painless. If you're afraid of enclosed spaces, you may feel some anxiety while in the scanner. Be sure to tell the nurse or technologist about any discomfort. He or she may give you a drug to help you relax.
In some cases you may have a CT and PET scan in the same machine during the same appointment. The CT scan will be done first and take about 10 minutes.
After the test you can carry on with your day as usual, unless your doctor tells you otherwise. You'll need to drink plenty of fluids to help flush the tracer from your body.
Pictures from a PET scan display bright spots where the radioactive tracer collected. These spots reveal higher levels of chemical activity and details about how your tissues and organs are functioning. A doctor specially trained to interpret scan images (radiologist) will report the findings to your doctor.
The radiologist may also compare your PET images with images from other tests you've undergone recently, such as computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Or the pictures may be combined to provide more detail about your condition.

Doctors and scientists who have training in PET scans and other imaging technology study how best to use PET scans to predict and diagnose a wide range of diseases and conditions. In 2012, Mayo Clinic received Food and Drug Administration approval to produce and administer choline C-11 injection, an imaging agent used during PET scanning to help detect sites of recurrent prostate cancer. Mayo Clinic is the first institution in North America approved to produce choline C-11.

[quote user="DavenIII"][quote user="Kase-1"]LMAO, you can say 'real world' and 'truth' all you want, but just because you think something is a fact doesnt make it so
Correct the part that makes it a fact is that it's an inarguable truth, some people ARE "acting" like they are outraged because its "cool" some people are acting outraged because they want attention and some people are acting in such a way because they believe everything the media has told them...al those things are inarguable truths...period...and all your whining that "it's just my opinion" does not make it so.
[quote user="Kase-1"]About the majority of Trayvon Martin supporters being mindless sheep that follow because its 'cool' or 'in'.....FALSE again!!!![/quote]
That's your opinion, I o think it's the majority, I know for a fact it is some, but I don't not know for sure it's the majority, but since it's my opinion that the majority of American when it comes to most topics just react emotionally to whatever the news tells them to I'd guess it is the majority....no actually takes the time to think about anything but themselves anymore...at least that's my opinion of most people.
[quote user="Kase-1"]OK, once again contrary to what they may tell you on fox news, Kase-1 isnt in charge of what make the news!!!!! So stop beating that point to death, like I said to morehead there have been plenty of other murders that didnt get the national attention Travyon Martin did, each case is a different story[/quote]
No you aren't in charge of whats on the news...but you are in charge of how you react to it and the people reacting to this particular story with outrage seem quite silly, considering this is an every day occurrence....you should not be surprised about this, you should be angry that this sort of thing happens everyday....but you should not be outraged at this one person, because you don't even know the facts of the case here....you should be outraged that this sort of thing happens everyday in America...not at this one individual case.
Morehead and his legions can and will change the world.</P>

NBFD raises money for deceased AZ fire fighters
NEW BERN - New Bern Fire Department teamed up Saturday with Crossfit Burn to raise money for the families of the 19 Hotshot fire fighters who died in an Arizona wildfire in June.
Dozens of people came to train their bodies and show support. The group performed a CrossFit workout in the mid 80 degree heat. CrossFit is a high intensity interval training program using weights and cardio exercises.
Fire fighters say the training is the closest thing a person can get to the intensity of a live fire situation.
"CrossFit, it's functional movements, things you do everyday, you squat, you pick up things off the floor, deadlift, you put things high on a shelf, that's a press," said New Bern Fire Fighter Steven Jasset, "This is the closest thing you're going to get to real live techniques and things you'll do on a fire ground."
Saturday's fundraiser was an international event. Fire fighters said CrossFit gyms from around the world were also raising money for the families of the Hotshot fire fighters.
"They're having trouble getting the money that should be rightfully theirs and just trying to get some money and help all the families of those guys who were lost," Jasset said.

Everyone, at least everyone who follows my words, is well aware of the 419 Scam, commonly known as the Nigerian Email Scam, or the "Advance Fee Fraud."
It's almost literally one of the oldest tricks in the book when it comes to the web (witness, Ze Frank's dramatic reading of a 419 email at a 2004 TED).
Still, it's astonishing how little I know about the 419 scam, and what actually motivates these individuals to perpetrate the scams in the first place. I had always been told that the common myth in the various parts of Africa (where the practice of scamming Americans is prevalent) was that the US government repaid all money lost in scams to its citizens. Obviously we know that to be untrue, and given how the world has shrunk due to widespread adoption of social tools and the Web, I'd imagine that if that myth were ever commonly held it would no longer be that.
That's why I've been fascinated by a series of posts I discovered today at Scam Detectives, where the author was actually approached by a reformed 419er, who gave surprisingly detailed accounts of what goes on inside these operations.
I come from a poor family in Lagos, Nigeria. We did not have very much money and good jobs are hard to find. I was approached to work for a gang master when I was 15, because I had done well in school with my English, and was getting to be good with computers. The gang master was offering good money and I took the chance to help my family.
Scam-Detective: How did you find victims for your scams?
John: First you need to understand how the gangs work. At the bottom are the "foot soldiers", kids who spend all of their time online to find email addresses and send out the first emails to get people interested. When they receive a reply, the victim is passed up the chain, to someone who has better English to get copies of ID from them like copies of their passport and driving licenses and build up trust. Then when they are ready to ask for money, they are passed further up again to someone who will pretend to be a barrister or shipping agent who will tell the victim that they need to pay charges or even a bribe to get the big cash amount out of the country. When they pay up, the gang master will collect the money from the Western Union office, using fake ID that they have taken from other scam victims.
Part of the motivation is the constant detachment the Internet provides for the scammers:
I never met a victim, but I was involved in a couple of Wash-Wash scams. We would tell the victim that we had a trunk full of money, millions of dollars. One victim met some of my associates in a hotel in Amsterdam, where he was shown a box full of black paper. He was told that the money had been dyed black to get through customs, and that it could be cleaned with a special chemical that was very expensive. My associates showed him how this worked with a couple of $100 bills from the top of the box, which they rinsed with some liquid to remove the black dye. Of course the rest of the bills were only black paper, but the victim saw real money. He handed over $27,000 (about £17,000) to buy the chemicals and was told to return to the hotel later that day to pick up the cash. Of course when he came back, there was nobody there. He couldn't report it to anybody because if it had been real it would have been illegal, so he would have gotten himself into trouble.
There is a lot of self-delusion and desperation that comes with the territory:
I would use whatever tactics were needed to get more money. I would send faked letters which stated that the money was about to be taken out of the account by the bank or seized by the government to make them think it was urgent, or tell them that this was definitely the last obstacle to the money being released. I would encourage them to take out loans or borrow money from friends to make the last payment, but tell them that it was important that they didn't tell anyone what the money was for. I promised them that the expenses would be paid back on top of their share of the money.
Some of the blame has to go to the victims. They wanted the money too because they were greedy. Lots of times I would get emails telling me that they wanted more money than I was offering because of the money they were having to send. They could afford to lose the money. I am not proud of it but I had to feed my family.
The life of a scammer isn't all unicorns and rainbows, though:
The gang was full of bad people. There was always pressure to send more emails and get more victims. It was always "send more, send more". When I was promoted and was asking victims for money, the boss always wanted to know when the money was coming. Whatever I was doing was not good enough and if he thought I was not working hard enough he would threaten me and my family. One time I tried to run my own scam on the side and cut the boss out. He found out and beat me badly. He watched me much closer after that and I didn't dare to try it again.
Another time I got into big trouble because of a victim who kept saying he had sent money when he hadn't. He sent me 4 fake wire transfer codes and each time the boss went to pick up the money they told him that the number was wrong. The last time the office staff called the police and the boss had to run away. I got beat really bad for that one. I think the guy was just playing with me for fun and never had any real money.
It's a stellar job of investigative journalism, and really poignant. The sense I got is that there is a lot of institutional corruption in the nations where this happens, and those that aren't on the take are truly in the dark as to what's going on.
The bottom line is that this sort of activity will always continue to take place, and it will only get more sophisticated over time. The only way to remove the incentive would be to vastly improve economic conditions in areas like that so the most attractive option for making money wouldn't be stealing it. There are efforts underway by numbers of organizations to make that happen, but there's a long way to go in that arena.

The Calcasieu Parish School Board approved four refunding bonds Tuesday — a decision officials said will save taxpayers more than $900,000.
The four refinanced bonds include two for the Westlake-Maplewood area, one for Sulphur and one for Iowa.
All of the original bonds provided money for construction and facility improvements at public schools in those areas.
The two bonds in the Westlake-Maplewood area were for a collective $13.3 million. The Iowa bond was for $4 million, and the Sulphur bond was for $8.3 million.
The School Board's practice of refunding bonds has become more frequent over the past five years, school system Chief Financial Officer Karl Bruchhaus said.
"We are refinancing these bonds because we have a saving in the interest cost now," he said. "Interest costs have remained low over the past five years, and we refinance the bonds to lower costs."
School Board members were told at their monthly meeting that refunding the four bonds would save voters $989,000.49.
"If we pay back less on the debt, everybody wins," Bruchhaus said. "The taxpayers pay less property tax."

Department Majors
General Education Requirements
Requirements for the Personal Finance Major
Requirements for the Retailing Major
Requirements for the Consumer Affairs Major (effective fall 2011, not accepting new majors)
Certificate Programs
4232 Nancy Nicholas Hall, 1300 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706; 608-263-5675; email@example.com; www.sohe.wisc.edu/cs/
Professors Bartfeld, Douthitt, Hoyt (chair), Jasper, Shim, Wong, Zepeda; Assistant Professors Collins, Samak
The Consumer Science Department is in the midst of a program review, which may result in changes that affect one or more of the majors described in this catalog. For the most current application forms, curriculum checksheets, and program specific information, see Student Academic Affairs Office Forms.
The Department of Consumer Science develops and disseminates information on the ways in which the interactions among consumers, business, and government can enhance the interests and well-being of consumers, families, and communities. The department focuses on various dimensions of well-being including economic/financial security, consumer empowerment, health, food security, housing security, sustainability, and the public policy that affects those dimensions of well-being. Consumer Science programs are interdisciplinary in nature and prepare students for a variety of careers in government, business, the media, and/or education. Research and teaching emphasize both information about the consumer as well as for the consumer.
Admission of on-campus transfers occurs at least once per year (spring or fall). Students must have a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.6 to be eligible to apply. A 2.6 cumulative grade point average does not guarantee admission, as the program is competitive. The application deadlines are posted on the School of Human Ecology Student Academic Affairs website. The Student Academic Affairs office has information on application procedures. On-campus students interested in learning about Consumer Science program admissions are encouraged to contact the Student Academic Affairs Office at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 608-262-2608 to register for a "Becoming a SoHE Student" session.
Department Majors
The Consumer Science department currently offers two majors: Personal Finance and Retailing. Both courses of study are interdisciplinary and integrative, and focus broadly on the economic well-being of consumers and families. Students take courses in the department as well as related courses in areas such as business, economics, and communication.Students take courses in the department as well as related courses in areas such as business, economics, and communication. The department also has some students in a Consumer Affairs major. That major stopped accepting new students after fall 2011.
The personal finance major prepares students for careers that aim to assist families and individuals in achieving financial goals. Such careers include family/individual financial planning and counseling, credit counseling, securities analysis and sales, insurance, employee benefits, banking, and lending. It also prepares students for graduate study in such fields as law, business, public administration, banking, consumer behavior and family economics. Graduate study is necessary for positions as Extension specialists in family and consumer economics and for teaching or research positions at the university level. This program leads to a bachelor of science (B.S.) degree in personal finance.
The retailing major prepares students for bringing a consumer-focused orientation to managerial and merchandising careers in a dynamic, technologically advanced, and globally focused industry. Career opportunities, particularly in retail management, offer students rapid advancement with companies experiencing growth via new store formats, category specific concepts, or global expansion. Professional career options include store management, merchandising (buying), information systems, distribution and inventory management, public relations and advertising, consumer credit, personnel management, and direct marketing. Leading department store, discount, and specialty retail companies regularly recruit at UW–Madison, seeking candidates for executive training positions.
The personal finance major and the retailing major are both built upon a general studies background requiring an analytical statistical aptitude. Both majors provide students with a professional orientation that emphasizes consumer and family well-being and social responsibility. The majors incorporate a shared departmental core, which provides all students with a strong grounding in consumer science including basic consumer finance; economics as it pertains to the role of consumers in the market; the role of public policy as it affects consumer well-being; consumer behavior and decision-making; and the way consumer choices reflect and have an impact on broader societal concerns around sustainability and social justice.
In addition to the shared core, both majors also include additional required and elective departmental courses that provide content and skills particular to the major, as well as selected courses in the business school and other campus departments.In addition to the shared core, both majors also include additional required and elective department courses that provide content and skills particular to the major, as well as selected courses in the business school and other campus departments.

New Release: A Call to Action for Nature's New Economy
Posted by Shannon Biggs in Community Rights, Global Exchange Community, Peace, Democracy and Human Rights, People Power, Not Corporate Power on 20th February, 2014 | 1 Comment
Last year a wise counsel of 32 leading global thinkers came together to discuss the power and promise of The Rights of Nature in transforming the "endless more" economy to living Earth economy. The Stillheart Declaration on Rights of Nature and the Economics of the Biosphere was released on February, 20, 2014 —appropriately, it is also the World Day of Social Justice. We hope it will inspire as much imagination, new energy, collaborative work and attention as those who wrote it.

Where I stayed
So we got up at Casa Brians (for those of us who slept :P ) and had some of the delicious breakfast of fresh fruit, beans and rice and toast that he made for us. Ohhh also had my first cup of coffee in CR and it was great! The shuttle arrived and we started to put our things in. The driver noticed that Josh had a surfboard and said we couldnt bring it because we were supposed to tell them if we had boards. Let`s think of this now...we are shuttling to the biggest surf town in CR and its our responsibility to tell you we have a surf board? Shouldnt that be a question you ask at booking? It would have fit just fine if they hadnt booked 6 other people in our *private* shuttle. We had a long convo with the office and they ended up sending us a cab to drive us to Mal Pais. We thought that was sweet because we would get our own car. `So here`s where being the girl sucks...I had to sit in the middle seat of a toyota corolla for 5 hours and it was absolutely miserable
We arrived in Mal Pais & Santa Teresa (theyre separated by a fork in the road and are about 5 minutes apart) and got our cabby to bring us to Tranquilo Backpackers which is a place Brandon had recommended to us. It turned out they were completely full and so was every other cheap hostel in town because of the Manifesto Gathering (a big hippie gathering with lots of beach parties) so we ended up at the Mal Pais surf club. The only thing they had available was a villa that overlooked the pool. It was a little out of our budget...30$ each for a night (so 60 for james and I) but we had no other option besides sleeping on the beach. We went to our little villa (its the top floor of a house) and it was amazing! It had 2 double and 2 single beds with a private bathroom and a view of the pool. Well worth the money! We spent the night drinking dirty costa rican rum that we got for 8$ a bottle and playing cards in our room with Josh and Geoff. The guys really wanted to go out but I wasnt comfortable because I hadnt gotten to check out the town before dark so James and I hung back at the hostel while the guys went out. It was another relaxing night after a long drive!
I`d write more but the bugs are eating me!! at least the pics are up for you to see...our first full day in mal pais!
