Meet our May 2016 German graduates
Jennie Barker (German Major):
Fulbright English Teaching Award in Hamburg for 2016-2017
"I began learning German in high school, and I continued with my study of the language as a German major at Tulane. My primary major is international relations, and, given my interest in the politics of the EU, being able to speak German has opened up multiple avenues for me that would have otherwise been closed. For example, I spent the spring semester of my junior year studying abroad in Berlin, and, because of my German language skills, I was able to intern in the International Department of Die Linke, a German political party. I was also able to take German-language classes at Humboldt University in Berlin, so I was truly able to live as a 'Berliner' for six months! Yet speaking German also helped me in unconventional ways. I wrote my senior honors thesis on a topic about human rights in Turkey, which at first glance does not seem related to Germany at all. Because so many people of Turkish origin live in Berlin, however, I was able to both establish contacts and use German-language media as sources for my thesis. Knowing German has been helpful to my undergraduate studies and will continue to be helpful as I pursue my post-graduate career."
Nicholas Ballou (German Minor):
"I picked up German in high school after getting frustrated with French, a language in which one first learns a rule and then learns roughly twenty exceptions to said rule. German, of course, is rather the opposite in how strictly it adheres to grammar rules, and that's something that really suited me. I continued to develop my language skills here at Tulane and got to put them to full use during a study abroad semester in Berlin (Fall 2014); it was this experience in the German-speaking part of the world that has led me to accept an Au Pair position right outside Wien (Vienna) starting in July of this year. "
Kelsey LaCourrege (German Minor):
"Minoring in German at Tulane has allowed me to develop my practical language skills to prepare me for diverse professional experiences in the German speaking world. I completed a diplomatic internship with the U.S. Department of State in Vienna, Austria in 2014. This past summer in 2015, I conducted biomedical research in Rostock, Germany through a DAAD grant. Following graduation, I will return to Vienna for a year on a Fulbright Study/Community Service Grant (it's a three part grant that includes an English teaching assistantship, community service project, and coursework. I framed the grant as a public health project: for the community service portion I'll be working with socially-isolated elderly individuals, and I'll be taking public health coursework). After my year in Vienna I will return to New Orleans and begin a MD/MPH program."
James Newton (German Minor):
"Arriving at Tulane in the fall of 2012, the German language was completely foreign to me. My four years in the department have served me well, and I feel prepared for future engagement with German language and culture. The program has opened up new intellectual avenues, allowing me center my art historical education on the material culture of Germany and the Low Countries during the early modern period. In the fall, I will depart for Lille, which lies in the French portion of Flanders, to teach English for a year through the Teaching Assistant Program in France (TAPIF), a French government fellowship."
John Supik (German Minor):
"I was at first apprehensive about minoring in a language, but the German professors were so helpful and course offerings so interesting, that I stayed and even studied abroad in Berlin. Next year I will be attending George Washington Law School, focusing on international law which I became interested in while abroad."

Remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice
Memorial Day is the day set aside for remembering those who have fallen in the service of their country. First known as Decoration Day, it originated after the Civil War to remember the fallen Union and Confederate soldiers in that bloodiest of American conflicts. We now use the day to remember all of those who have fallen while in the armed services, going back to the origins of the country.
Or at least we should. Too often, it is seen by too many as just another day off from work — if they are off — and a day to sleep in, have a cookout (weather permitting), watch a marathon of "Law & Order" or "Walking Dead"; do something fun.
That's to be expected, but we do urge readers to spare a moment or two for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country — who helped guarantee our precious rights and liberties. Maybe buy a poppy or plant a flag or visit a cemetery.
We also urge readers to spare a moment for those who have come home and, despairing, took their own lives. In a recent article, Journal Sentinel reporter Meg Jones noted that suicides of Marines spiked as the war in Iraq was winding down, and other military services are trying to cope with an increase in suicides. Last year, the Army reported that more soldiers died by suicide than by enemy attack —182 by suicide and 176 in combat.
The Marine Corps launched this year a project to examine the complex reasons Marines are taking their own lives. The Army is collecting information on suicides as well.
In March, Lt. Gen. Howard Bromberg, the Army's deputy chief of staff, told a House subcommittee that the Army is expanding confidential services for behavioral health care, Jones reported.
"While physical injuries may be easier to see, invisible wounds such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress take a significant toll on our soldiers," Bromberg said.
So let's remember the cost that war demands, remembering the fallen and supporting those who return struggling to deal with their experiences — experiences their country asked them to undergo. Their sacrifices are no less meaningful than those of their comrades in arms.
It's graduation season, and gowns, tasseled hats and too-long commencement speeches are as ubiquitous as dandelions on an unkempt lawn. Our congratulations go out to all of the graduates, but we would like to make special note of the fact that the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Joseph J. Zilber School of Public Health graduated the first two students from its master of public health program: Lilliann Paine and Drew Kartos.
The school was dedicated just about a year ago and has long been a project close to our hearts. A free-standing public health school centered in Milwaukee is essential to both train the next generation of public health workers and to conduct research aimed at some of the city's most difficult health problems. It's good to see the work has begun.

The Chelsea winger Arjen Robben was at the centre of a dispute within the club last night after it is understood that his manager, Jose Mourinho, sacked the doctor who was treating the player.
The Chelsea winger Arjen Robben was at the centre of a dispute within the club last night after it is understood that his manager, Jose Mourinho, sacked the doctor who was treating the player.
Robben, 21, sustained a broken foot in last week's Premiership match against Blackburn and Mourinho is believed to have told the club doctor Neil Frazer that he had to get the player fit for the Carling Cup final against Liverpool on 27 February.
When Frazer told Mourinho that the player would not be fit in time, he is understood to have been told by the Portuguese coach that he was no longer wanted at the club.
For the first time this season, Mourinho is facing an injury crisis with striker Didier Drogba, defender Ricardo Carvalho and Robben all struggling for fitness. The Chelsea coach made just one signing, Jiri Jarosik, during the transfer window.
Chelsea issued a statement last night, saying: "Dr Neil Frazer has stepped down from his position as club doctor due to ill health after nearly four years with Chelsea. The club would like to thank him for his service and wish him all the best in the future."
Robben, the winger so influential in Chelsea's rise to the top of the Premiership, described his foot injury as "a disaster" after scans revealed he had broken two bones. The Dutchman could be out of action for up to two months before he is ready to rejoin the club's quest for the title.
Robben said: "This is a disaster. Everything was going so well. It is a massive blow and comes just at the moment when I was in top shape."
The 21-year-old missed the first two months of the season with a broken bone in his other ankle.
The Netherlands coach Marco van Basten has warned Robben that he must learn to tackle differently if he is to stay clear of the foot injuries which have taken the shine off his successful first season with Chelsea.
Van Basten, whose career was ended by an ankle injury at the age of 29, said: "Every defender knows they must eliminate Robben. Maybe he must learn to go differently, more light-footed into a duel. I had to do that in the past. That is something he'll learn."

You've been to the doctor and have been given a prescription for vaginal cream so as to treat a vaginal infection or other condition. If you have never used a vaginal cream before, you may not know how. Here are step-by-step instructions that will make vaginal cream application quick and easy.

Difficulty:

Easy

Time Required:

5 minutes

What You Need:

towel

soap and water

a comfortable place to lie down

Here's How:

Find a comfortable place to apply your vaginal cream. Your bed can be an ideal option, though you may want to use a towel underneath you in order to prevent any cream from spilling on your linens.

Open the tube.

Screw the applicator nozzle onto the tube until it is secure but not overly tight.

Gently squeeze the tube from the bottom to force a sufficient amount of cream into the applicator barrel. Make sure it is enough to reach the prescribed dose. Most applicators provide markings to indicate where you should stop.

Unscrew the applicator from the tube.

Lie on your back with your knees drawn toward you. Gently insert the applicator deep into your vagina. Press the plunger downward until it reaches its original position.

Reusable applicators should be cleaned by pulling the plunger to remove it from the barrel and washing it with mild soap and warm water. Never boil your reusable applicator or use extremely hot water, as this can cause the plastic to melt or deteriorate.

Tips:

Most vaginal creams should be stored at room temperature. Check with your pharmacist if you have questions about storing your vaginal cream.

Using vaginal creams is easiest if done before going to bed, in order to help the medicine stay in place and prevent daytime discharges.

Check with your pharmacist for instructions if you miss a dose.

"Housewives" star Taylor Armstrong details abuse
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - In her first interviews since her husband's suicide, "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Taylor Armstrong is detailing abuse she claims she suffered from her spouse, including punches, pulled hair and death threats.
Armstrong spoke to TV show "Entertainment Tonight" in a story airing on Wednesday, and she appears on daytime talk show "Dr. Phil" on Thursday to discuss her plight that culminated in Russell Armstrong hanging himself at home in August, only weeks before a new season of the show debuted on September 5.
In an excerpt posted on "Entertainment Tonight's" website, Armstrong tells the show's Nancy O'Dell that Russell Armstrong physically abused her "maybe 20 times" throughout their marriage.
"The first time he ever really harmed me physically, I was pregnant with Kennedy (their daughter), and he grabbed me by the throat and held me up against a wall," Armstrong said.
The reason, she said, was because she had cooked his kids a pizza, but hadn't served them vegetables along with it.
From there, the assaults escalated, but he would wait until the two were alone, perhaps in their car. Armstrong said her husband would hide his abuse by grabbing or hitting her head so that any welts would be covered by her hair. "Russell was very careful about how he would do things," she said.
Taylor Armstrong is a key member of the show about wealthy and pampered women living in posh Beverly Hills. Her marriage troubles with Russell Armstrong were expected to be a key story in the second season that was taped earlier this year.
But on August 15, Russell Armstrong was found dead at home, age 47. The show debuted as planned, but with a new segment in which the other cast members, excluding Taylor Armstrong, talked about his suicide.
"Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," which airs on the Bravo cable network, has continued to run with Taylor appearing in episodes that show her having a nervous breakdown as her marriage collapses. But tape of Russell has been edited out. Continued...

Marquez wins 2014 Superprestigio DTX
Jared Mees and Kenny Noyes finish on the podium alongside the MotoGP Champ
Marquez after the Superprestigio in Barcelona
DOUBLE MotoGP World Champion Marc Marquez has ended the 2014 season in style after winning the Superprestigio DTX in Barcelon on Saturday night.
The Superprestigio DTX line-up consisted of ten World Championship from numerous motorcycle disciplines with Marquez finishing on the top step of the podium, followed by AMA Grand National winner Jared Mees and American Kenny Noyes.
The night was split into the Superprestigio and Open categories. Marquez won three of the four finals in the Superprestigio class whilst overall third place Mees won all of the Open class races.
In the final, which consisted of eight top riders from both categories, there was a 12-lap Superfinal. Mees and Marquez wet head-to-head in front of the Catalan crowd, but it was Marquez who crossed the line first by only 0.289 seconds.
Speaking after the event, Marquez said: "I'm happy and I've enjoyed all the way. I want to that all my fellow riders for putting such a show together and make it possible for the second edition.
"The best new today was to know that Brad [Baker] was okay at the end after his accident."
"This event had a lot of media attention and the public in the grandstands were very generous. I was a little bit nervous before the Superfinal because I knew Jared Mees was really fast, but I'm happy and relieved now," concluded Marquez.
Britain's Bradley Smith finished eighth, but did win two earlier heats. Scott Redding also made his debut alongside Alex Marquez and Tito Rabat in the Superprestigio, but did not make the top eight.
Last year's Superprestigio winner Brad Bake, also the 2013 AMA Grand National winner, dislocated his left shoulder in a practice crash and therefore was ruled out of the rest of the night.

For such a seemingly simple design, the Empire Cocktail Table contains a wealth of style details. The top of the table features Avalon Heights' signature anigre fiddle wood with its distinctive grain pattern. The base offers not one, but two distinctive elements. The first is the bridge truss-inspired design, which imparts an open and airy appearance to this wood cocktail table. The second is the darker finish on the base, which highlights the deep cherry of the top's Chelsea finish, creating a two-tone effect, a signature motif throughout Avalon Heights.

Memorial Sloan-Kettering to Use Sutro Technology for Neuroblastoma Research
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) has agreed to use Sutro Biopharma's cell-free protein synthesis technology to produce four different bispecific antibodies discovered by MSKCC for the treatment of neuroblastoma in children.
These antibodies will be directed against CD3 on T-cells and, as the second target, against the ganglioside GD2, which is expressed on the surface of human neuroblastoma cells, as well as in melanoma and osteosarcoma. Nai-Kong V. Cheung, M.D., Ph.D., head of Memorial Sloan-Kettering's Neuroblastoma program, will use preclinical models to test the bispecific antibodies manufactured by Sutro.
"We and others have previously shown that the use of an anti-CD3 and anti-GD2 bispecific antibody has a strong scientific rationale, and anti-GD2 monoclonal antibodies targeting the ganglioside GD2 have demonstrated efficacy in clinical trials in pediatric neuroblastoma," Dr. Cheung stated. "We hope that the use of Sutro's technology will facilitate a more rapid, high-throughput optimization of these bispecific antibodies in the future, and allow us to investigate novel variants of these molecules quickly before bringing the winner to the clinic."
This isn't the first time Sutro has collaborated on antibody production. In December 2012, the company inked a deal with Celgene to use its cell-free protein synthesis technology platform to design and develop new antibody drug conjugates and bispecific antibodies for two undisclosed targets. The deal could return Sutro as much as $500 million.

MOVESET: Raziel (The Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver)
-I personally want Raziel more than anyone else in this game ever bar none, so I decided to make a movelist. I have LoK Defiance on the PS2 right now so these are all from experience.-
"What pitiful form is this that I have come to inhabit?"
Cast aside by the kingdom he used to serve, Raziel was reborn as the Reaver of Souls by the Elder God. Sent on a misleading quest to destroy the former kingdom, he stumbles upon his true destiny as the Wraith Blade.
Raziel would enter via his 'Material Realm Shift' and jump up from the ground as a zombie before shedding the flesh to his normal form.
Raziel would be a combo-heavy close quarters who could utilize his Telekenesis to push or pull opponents.
No-Direction □ = His normal 3 hit combo.
No-Direction Δ = His launcher which would go for aerials, can be used after 1st or 2nd hit of normal combo
No-Direction O = His "Telekenesis Button" which for this one would hold an opponent in place for approximately 1.5 seconds.
Air No-Direction □ = His aerial 3-hit combo that would end in a ground smash.
Air No-Direction Δ = This would be used for a single heavier ground smash and could be put in after 1st or 2nd hit of square combo
Air No-Direction O = This would be used to keep the opponent in place. It could only be used once during an air combo and only 1.5 seconds.
↑□ = Anti-air single jab.
↑Δ = Anti-air slash that could be extended into an air combo with the first up-square hit.
↑O = This would force an opponent upwards via the telekenesis.
Air ↑□ = This would probably be unused, but could get him to use a melee uppercut while in a jump if it had to be used.
Air ↑Δ = This would probably be unused, but may act as a single-use second air launcher.
Air ↑O = This would force an opponent upwards while in the air, can only be used once while mid-jump.
→□ = This would be his 'rolling stab' move, which would be mashed a few times before one last hit.
→Δ = This would be a sort of 'rolling slash' move which would go under projectiles.
→O = This would push an opponent away or towards depending on which direction is pressed.
Air →□ = This would be his 'spinning slash' move where he span 5-6 times midair with a slash from the Reaver before hitting them back at the ground.
Air →Δ = This would be a 'dashing slash' move that could pull him towards an opponent to do more damage.
Air →O = This would be an aerial push or pull depending on the area, and could be used as a replacement for air dashing if need be.
↓□ = This would be a 'sweep' move of some sort.
↓Δ = This would be his 'downwards smash' that reached higher up than most of his launchers, doing more damage but longer startup. Bad for mid combo.
↓O = This on the ground would be used to slam people into the ground through Telekenesis. Possible bounce.
Air ↓□ = This would act kind of like a 'somersault slash' and would be a good cross up.
Air ↓Δ = This would be his aerial Downwards Smash which would have the person bounce back up to where you are.
Air ↓O = This in the air would be good to end the combo immediately, and smash the person into the ground via Telekenesis.
Super 1 would have him attack a single person, either stabbing them with the Wraith Blade and having their ghost fly into the sword, or smash them into the ground and devour their ghost by opening his scarf.
Super 2 would have him open up his scarf; anyone around him for 2-3 seconds, possible medium sized radius, would fall to the ground. By the time it ends anyone it came in contact with falls over and their ghost is devoured.
Super 3 would have him enter the Spirit Realm. He cannot be hit whatsoever during this time, and his attacks do a 1-hit KO. Usual time frame.
I dunno what else, really.
Re: MOVESET: Raziel (The Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver)[ Edited ]
I never got around to playing the Soul Reaver games. I want to though. I'd be pretty stoked if Raziel was in.
Also, pretty unreleated, but sort of not. Someone had made a Xbox all-stars thread and one dude had Kain in his roster mock-up, and I called him on it and he was like "I didn't know who else to put in..." and I was like "**bleep**?"
Omar - "what are you guys doing? Why did you get rid of crash!"
Game devs - "we wanted to put in evil Cole so we had to get rid of everyone else the fans wanted"
Omar- "Oh nice, good idea. I didn't think of that"
Re: MOVESET: Raziel (The Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver)
Legacy of Kain doesn't really fit Xbox material. Yeah, Blood Omen 2, Defiance, and the weird Lara Croft cameo were on Microsoft, but that doesn't shake the fact that Blood Omen 1, Soul Reaver, and Soul Reaver 2 were largely Sony and also had Blood Omen 2, Defiance, and the cameo from Croft.
He's not that important but he sure as heck ain't backwater. He was one of the reasons I believe gaming is an art form and pretty much the gold in the infested turd waters.
The franchises of Legacy of Kain, Jet Set Radio, .hack//, Gravity Rush, and the The Longest Journey are probably my favorites. I know April Ryan (Dreamfall), Haseo or Kite (.hack//), and definitely not Beat (JSR) won't make an appearance. There's hype for Kat, and I am LOVING that. Seriously I played through that whole game and pretty much sobbed at how awesome it was.
If Raziel makes it in though, everything is awesome forever.
Re: MOVESET: Raziel (The Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver)
Re: MOVESET: Raziel (The Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver)
Dude, we have to try and get him in. We have to start a petition like they did for Crash & Spyro. I personally wantt him in this game more than anyone else too and I've got my friend who feels th same way.
Re: MOVESET: Raziel (The Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver)[ Edited ]
I have my own moveset as well. I've come up with it from playing Soul Reaver 1&2 AND Legacy of Kain Defiance.
□ 3 hit combo with reaver - - - air□ 3 hit combo with reaver in air (like dante's air □)
→□ his multiple jabs after rolling - - - air→□ a strong air stab (much like sir daniel's air→□)
↑□ his upward slash with the reaver (like dante's ↑□) - - - air↑□ his spinning reaver attack (like kratos air↑□)
↓□ a slamming attack with his reaver - - - air↓□ slams the enemy down with his reaver (bounces enemies off ground like heihachi's air↓□)
Δ Shoots his force ball projectile straight - - - airΔ Shoots his force ball projectile diagnally down
→Δ The Water or Fire Glyph from SR1 (These would be concentrated blasts forward) - - - air→Δ Same but possibly a different trajectory.
↑Δ The Electricity Glyph from SR1 (Being that it is electricity, I would imagine that it would be more suitable for an upward attack) - - - air↑Δ The same thing.
↓Δ The Sound or repulsion glyph from SR1 (This would be a sort of wide low-knockback attack like Kat's ↑O.
The post below this one will be O attacks, supers, and extra abilities.
Re: MOVESET: Raziel (The Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver)
O Raziel lowers his scarf and begins to draw in souls for extra ap. It would similar to Toro's neutral O.
→O Raziel will teleport similarly to Spike by quickly going from the material to spectral realm and back.
↑O From SR2, the light reaver. Change your blade to the light reaver to increase the speed of all of your □ attacks and your neutral Δ attack. The cost however would be that your attacks will give you less ap.
↓O From SR2, the dark reaver. Change your blade to the dark reaver to increase the ap gain of all of your □ attacks and your neutral Δ attack. The cost however would be that your attacks will be slower and harder to nail.
Lv1: I agree 100% with MarrowOchi's idea. It could even have added flashiness by making it look more similarly to the SR1 version.
Lv2: The sunlight glyph from SR1. This is the game's most powerful glyph. It would completely incinerate enemies all around you in SR1. I figured that it would world very similarly to Evil Cole's Lv2.
Lv3: MarrowOchi definately has the right idea here, BUT say that it's similar to Dante's Lv3... Picturing it? Ok, so instead of immobilizing all opponents at it's startup like Dante's, opponents would be free at startup becuase the spectral realm is filled with undead vampire darklings and wraiths. These creatures would also be dangerous to players as well as Raziel himself.
Special Abilities: Simply put, Raziel can hover like Ratchet or the Coles. He can scale walls so give him a wall scaling ability like Raiden and you've got Raziel my friend.

Having problems with your PC Desktops ?
Ethernet port is bad
\015 I too have a bad ethernet port and when I opened my computer to see how to replace it, it is in a metal box that doesn't seem to be removable. How can I replace or fix this without having internet access to download an update?\015
Answers :
Do you mean is the port itself it is not removable. The things you should do is to buy a LAN card device and install that device in your computer including the driver. Now you can connect to internet and access.

This article explains fonts for the GraphicsWindow object in Microsoft Small Basic:
This article was written by Nonki Takahashi.
What is a Font?
A Font is a designed character set. In Windows, many programs have the ability to change fonts. Many fonts are installed into C:\Windows\Fonts folder. For example, this article uses "Segoe UI" font.
Font Properties
There are four font properties in GraphicsWindow.
If GraphicsWindow.FontBold is "True", font characters become thick. Default GraphicsWindow.FontBold value is "True".
If GraphicsWindow.FontItalic is "True", font characters become slant. Default GraphicsWindow.FontItalic value is "False".
GraphicsWindow.FontName contains font face name.
"Tahoma" is the default font name in local (in Small Basic IDE). "Segoe UI" is the default font name in remote (in smallbasic.com – Microsoft Small Basic Program Listing web site).
GraphicsWindow.FontSize means the height [pixels] of characters. In some fonts such like "Tahoma", FontSize means the height between the top line and baseline. In some fonts such like "Courier New", FontSize means the height between the top line and the bottom line. You can recognize this with a sample program Font Sample 0.1 described below.
Default font size is 12 [pixels].
Recommended Fonts
I recommend you to use following six fonts because both Windows and Mac OS system pre-install these fonts.
|Font Name
|Fixed Pitch
|Courier New
|Times New Roman
|Trebuchet MS

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2000
About the owner: My son and I bought C 214 from friends of mine in June of 2000. Kyle is a builder in West Michigan he took his subcontractors to Maui 3 years ago for a month to totally 'gut' and re-model our unit. I am a widow and also live in MI. I retired from Herman Miller Inc. 17 years ago. My entire family (4) children and (9) grandchildren LOVE Maui!
Why the Owner Chose Kihei, HI, USA:
Both Kyle and his wife, and my late husband and I had rented the condo from my friends. Never dreamed I would one day own it, along with Kyle. Kyle was going to rent it again from the Klages and they told me it was 'up for sale'. Kyle said 'did you tell them we wanted to buy it' to which I replied ' I didn't know we did'! We talked with Klages and it just all worked out. IT was definitely a new experience for me owning rental property.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
I just feel totally relaxed on Maui. I think the local citizens are very friendly and helpful. Have met a lot of nice guests. I enjoy being in short walking distance to cafe's, shopping, beach and ocean. Never tire of watching the sunsets, and seeing the whales. There are so many activities you can find new things on every trip.

Lawmakers find common cause in chasing leak
Sat., Jan. 19, 2013, midnight
The new "bipartisan majority" in the Washington Senate is wasting no time jumping into a serious matter.
Call it the Roach affair, and note that the new coalition – made up of Republicans plus a couple of defectors – is going right after it, even before the first gavel echoes die down.
Auburn Rep. Pam Roach has racked up an impressive record of complaints about her legendary tongue-lashings of staffers and other senators. She's been reprimanded repeatedly by the GOP caucus for mistreating staffers. She was secretly recorded once giving an amusingly over-the- top overreaction to the fact that someone had moved roses from her desk. A couple of years ago, she was banned from the GOP caucus – her own party caucus – and prohibited from having any direct contact whatsoever with caucus staff or attorneys. This followed an incident in 2009 that was deemed by the Republican caucus a "particularly vicious attack" on a caucus lawyer.
The 15-page report on the issue, as reported in the Associated Press, said: "Some fled the room or put their hands over their ears to muffle the screaming; others felt helpless, embarrassed and physically ill from watching," the document said. "One person said it was like watching a car that 'kept backing up over the victim again and again.' "
The report said Roach had targeted the attorney, Mike Hoover, since 2003 and "regularly yelled at him, demanded that he swear loyalty to her, and threatened to have him fired if he crossed her."
The GOP caucus let Roach back in the door last year, when it was in desperate need of a key vote during the dramatic GOP takeover of the budget process. It did this despite a fresh complaint that Roach had verbally abused a staffer tasked with enforcing the sanctions against her for verbally abusing staffers.
But now, the new "majority" and the Facilities and Operations Committee are showing their mettle by uncorking a new investigation into l'affaire Roach.
Not the issue of her behavior. Not the matter of the cost and expense and time of continually investigating and either defending or disciplining an alleged bully. No, no. What's got the new, bright-future-majority up in arms is the fact that anybody found out about it.
They're launching an investigation to find out who leaked the most recent complaint.
Here's to their failure.
Roach claims that the complaints about her are utterly false and that she has been victimized by just a few members of her party. In a statement, she mentioned repeatedly that she travels around the world on humanitarian missions. Let's imagine that the stories of screaming, the audiotaped evidence of her preposterous "roses" speech, the repeated sanctions, the utter banishment by her own party – let's imagine all of that is invented, made-up attack politics, as she says. Imagine that the Republican Party caucus went on an utter witch hunt, a completely baseless personal attack on a member in good standing.
Would the public have any right to know that? To examine and weigh the evidence? To see how the matter was handled, tip to tail?
Almost always, leak investigations are power plays, bully moves meant to protect institutions and officials, usually under some rationalized "principle" – confidentiality, privacy, national security.
In the Roach case, someone has leaked some – but not all – of the evidence surrounding complaints, including the report in 2010 to the secretary of state that led to her punishment. It was the basis for extraordinary actions – a party's literal banishment of a member, the filing of a $1.75 million lawsuit that was later settled for no money but a reiteration of the sanctions, and a seeming quid-pro-quo in which the member was forgiven and brought back into the fold at the extraordinarily coincidental moment when her caucus was desperate to preserve a one-vote majority.
The Associated Press and Seattle Times have pursued further records about Roach complaints, and those requests remain unresolved. Lawmakers on the committee are arguing that all of this should occur in secret; they barred two reporters from a committee meeting earlier this week.
Senate Majority Leader Rodney Tom spoke up in favor of all that secrecy and the leak investigation.
"One of the keys to that committee is that confidential records need to remain confidential," Tom told the AP. "If we break that trust, then we no longer have that safe haven."
Tom may be forgetting just whose trust is under contract here. He has characterized this as a personnel matter, which is silly. But even if it were a private matter between an employee and an employer, he and his fellows should try very hard not to forget who their employer – and Roach's – really is.

Saturday's opponent Wisconsin will bring another challenge to the Michigan State Spartans defense and linebacker coach Mark Snyder fully expects his guys to be ready to meet the challenge head on.
"They (Wisconsin) are very, very tough," said Snyder. "They are very well coached. It started with Coach (Barry) Alvarez. He's going to have a guy in there who knows how to run the ball. Coach (Paul) Chryst can do that. We will have our hands full. It is a very well-coached football team. Very physical, but we pride ourselves on that as well."
Saturday may be the day Snyder gets one of his backers back on the field for more reps as Ed Davis continues to work his way back after missing last season and being cleared just recently by the NCAA for a sixth year of eligibility. But don't be surprised if the Spartans continue to take baby steps with Davis.
"We wanted to play him a little bit more," he said. "Once the quarterback broke out on a run and Chris Frey had to run him down, Ed's not quite there yet, so we felt like we would hold him back another week and try to hold him back a little bit this week.
"He is getting better every day. You're seeing more and more confidence. He's still got a way to go, but he is coming every day."
One player Snyder is not worried about is Jon Reschke as he continues to raise his game.
"Jon is a versatile player," he said. "He's got good speed, good hands, smart player, good guy. That's why he is starting for us."
As for Riley Bullough, Snyder has seen the fifth-year senior continue to step forward as a vocal leader of the defense.
"Riley is the one cog right now that is our voice," explained Snyder. "There is no doubt about it. Last year, you had Shilique (Calhoun), you had 'LT' (Lawrence Thomas), you had Joel Heath, you have Riley. You had some guys on that front seven that stepped up. That is what we are working towards right now. It has to be more than just him. And that is a challenge in my room right now. More of those guys have step up."
With so many linebackers at his disposal, Snyder has been happy with the overall attitude of each of them as they battle for reps.
"I have a great room," he said. "Those guys are all buddies. It is all about the team. They are all going to get their snaps. You get as your work deserves, so the hot hand is going to be the one playing. They get that and they understand that."
So far this season the top three tacklers on the Spartans defense are linebackers as Bullough, Andrew Dowell and Chris Frey have all posted double digits in the stat column. If Reschke can continue to play as he did against the Irish, he'll soon be right with his running mates.

Nico Ravanilla – "The Philippines Under President Duterte: Nagging Questions and an Optimistic Outlook"
March 29, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Event Navigation
The San Diego World Affairs Council presents:
UCSD Assistant Professor Nico Ravanilla
"The Philippines Under President Duterte: Nagging Questions and an Optimistic Outlook"
How is the Philippines doing economically and politically? Why is President Rodrigo Duterte's war on drugs, which is taking a serious toll in human lives and social cohesion, still popularly supported? Is the Duterte administration pursuing a set of domestic and foreign policies that promote inclusive economic growth and a stable political environment? Are there reasons to be cautiously optimistic about the Philippines future?
In his talk, Professor Ravanilla will frame these concerns in the broader economic and political context of the Philippines, and suggest ways to understand and draw insights from the country's current affairs.
About Our Speaker
Born and raised in the Philippines, Nico Ravanilla is an Assistant Professor at UC San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy, where he researches ways to improve governance in developing democracies. Before coming to UCSD, he held the Walter H. Shorenstein Postdoctoral Fellowship in Contemporary Asia at Stanford University. Professor Ravanilla earned his BS and MA from the University of the Philippines, and his Ph.D. in political science and public policy at the University of Michigan.

Engagement Ring
We ordered this ring for my son's fiance as he is in the Navy. I can't comment on the ring very much because I am not wearing it. But, we did receive it at our address. The ring is outstanding. The ring really stood out on her finger. I was wowed how nice it looked. The quality is outstanding. But, the reason for this review is the price Overstock has. The price can't be beat. I repeat, the price can't be beat! Thanks Overstock!

Jasper blinked the sleep out of his eyes as he wearily turned onto his side to silence the shrill ringing of his alarm clock. This was the start of another school day, just like any other; just as angst-ridden, just as fearful, just as monotonous, just as filled with self doubt – nothing different. Nothing ever changed.
Impatiently brushing a strand of his hair from his face he sat up and pulled back the duvet. It was no use arguing with his mother about going to that dreadful place. He'd have to go and face them eventually.
Slowly he walked to the cracked mirror at the end of his bedroom and stared hopelessly at his tired reflection. His skin was grey from insomnia, and the telltale lines, already at the side of his mouth, worsened by every drag of his cigarette, showed more than ever.
His long dark hair came to just below the collar of his mismatched pyjamas, covering the long purple scar on his pale chest, a token of his peers. He hastily dressed himself in his school uniform, his blazer now pilled with wear, his trousers coming to just below his ankles. These items of clothing had one been his brother's; he had tried to persuade his mother to buy him a new set, but she had told him to make do with what was there already. Did he think they were made of money?
He proceeded to hide himself beneath a thick layer white face powder and using his kohl pencil to its full potential. His strongly outlined eyes stared back at him through the reflective glass. He had felt that taking refuge by covering his face and body lessened his exposure to the world, and made him feel safer somehow. When he had made his emotions less noticeable he could stay behind this mask for the rest of the day.
Jasper had tried to fit in with the others at his school before, but it had only made things worse, so he had decided not to try any more. He had always known that he was different; not just in the way he dressed, or his tastes: He was separated from most sixteen year olds in his town in a much deeper sense, something dark and mysterious, that he didn't even quite know himself.
All his life, he had never felt one with the group. Perhaps he was destined to be an outsider.
Glancing around the room, his nervous gaze rested upon a piece of jagged glass that had flown from the mirror when his father had taken his fist to it three months before.
Holding it between thumb and forefinger, he rolled up his sleeve and slowly drove the sharp blade-like edge into the skin of his wrist. His eyes focussed with concentration as he watched the crimson liquid leak out, running down his arm and onto the floor, camouflaging with the red carpet. Pain seared through his nerves, but the agony in his mind seemed to decrease, even if it was only temporarily. A tiny measure of frustration and anger seemed to leave him with each drop of blood that fell. Soon the blade of glass would leave its mark, adding to the collection of criss-crossing white lines already etched there.
"Hurry up, Jasper, you'll be late! came the impatient call from downstairs.
"Coming, Mam" came his atonal reply. Swinging his patched grey satchel over his shoulder, he descended the short flight of stairs and left the house, closing the front door softly behind him.
He walked straight ahead up the street, neatly avoiding the stray chip packets and beer cans, still un-cleared from last Friday night.
After a few minutes he crossed the road and entered the park through its large, black metal gates. Each giant tree stood still and silent, as if it were still sleeping at this early time in the morning, Jasper carried on through the children's play area where he held so many memories; He had spent countless happy hours with his brother Matt, dizzying each other on the round-about and soaring into the air on the swings. They were brave adventurers in the jungle of the climbing frame and fearless speed-racers on springing motorbikes; tight ropewalkers on the stepping-stones and circus acrobats on the monkey bars. They transformed the small red wooden boat into a great ship, in which they travelled together to distant shores, seeking lost treasure. The rubber tyre that lay on the ground was their very own dinghy, in which they could escape from enemy attackers. These enemies were all around, you were never quite sure whom to trust, but if they stuck together they could brave anything. They were safe.
Awakening from his array of memory, he noticed one swing was hanging loosely off a single chain, its rusty links groaning as it swung back and forth. He looked over to the climbing frame. It stood vacantly, its paint scraped off from rust, its bars bent at odd angles. The motorbikes had toppled onto the grimy earth, their springs standing uselessly. The wooden boat lay capsized, with crude words scribbled over its body in black permanent marker. Discarded needles were scattered haphazardly on the dry earth near the bushes and broken glass littered the sandpit. Things must have changed, Jasper thought. This town must have become rougher since he was younger. But then again, perhaps it had never been quite so idyllic after all; he only saw these things now through the eyes of experience.

In effect, Sinn Fein have disenfranchised the two constituencies they were elected to represent. If these two have no intention of taking their seats, why do they want free offices, free faxing, photocopying, telephoning, e-mail and library facilities in the centre of London?
To argue that removing one more "symbolic barrier" to Sinn Fein's inclusion in democratic politics by giving them these facilities will make it more difficult for Mr Adams to use the "rhetoric of grievance and discrimination with his own tribe" (leader, 5 December) is to misjudge the IRA/Sinn Fein. They want a united Ireland regardless of the wishes of the majority in Northern Ireland, and whether the rhetoric of grievance is justified or not, they will use it in the pursuit of their objective.

The Hair and Skin Trading Company
The Hair and Skin Trading Company is a British drone / avant-noise group, formed in 1991 by ex-Loop members Neil Mackay (vocals/bass) and John Wills (drums). Joined by guitarist Nigel Webb and Richard Johnston on samples (who left as a band member during the recording of the first album, but periodically collaborated as a live engineer adding live dub to their sound and whose samples also appear on Psychedelische Musique uncredited), they released their debut album Jo in Nine G Hell on Beggars Banquet Records in 1992. They also played the Reading Festival that year,[1] with tours of Europe, U.S.A. and the U.K, following their subsequent releases.
Their first two albums bear influences of My Bloody Valentine and The Skids, while the vocal delivery has been compared to The Fall's Mark E Smith.[2] By the third album, 1995's Faust-like Psychedelische Musique, the band had dispensed with conventional rock elements, and few of its songs bear titles; instead these were denoted by letters or symbols.
Wills now records and performs as Pumajaw. Mackay formed a band with his then wife Kim Hannibal called Juicy Eureka and released an album for Lissy's Records titled Making Things Up and Then Forgetting Them. Mackay and Webb played several gigs around London with Tony Irving in a free noise/jazz band called Unity Gain. Webb continues to makes music under the name Micro/Nigel Webb and Digital Signal Recordings.

AUD/USD dipped below $0.9600
Aussie dollar extends the downside, driven down by the weak Chinese manufacturing PMI (prelim. May estimate: 49.6, forecast: 50.5). On Thursday AUD/USD renewed an 11-week low at $0.9595, but then quickly recovered back to $0.9680.
Despite the fact that yesterday Ben Bernanke said it was too early to taper QE, he actually didn't deny that US is on the way to the "exit", so the greenback's prospects are not so bad. Falling commodity prices are increasing the pressure on the Aussie.
Trader sentiment towards the Aussie remains bearish despite the strongly oversold market conditions. Next support is seen at $0.9570 (2012 low). We would expect a bullish correction to start from here, but buying the Aussie remains a risky trade. We will be prepared to sell the pair on rallies from $0.9840 as the AUD/USD's drop seems to be structural. Commerzbank's medium-term target lies at $0.9400/9380.

This is a thick eye cream. It really hydrates your under eyes and leaves your under eye bags less noticeable.
This eye cream is great at night for moisturizing and leaves me with brighter eyes by the time I wake up in the morning. It is a little on the pricey side but I find it's the only eye cream I'll use. It does not irritate and has high quality ingredients. When applied in the morning it does stay on the skin a while so makeup tends to shift with it on, so I suggest only using this as an eye treatment at night.
I'm not going to lie, this is a nice product. I bought it in a sample size and it lasted for a surprisingly long time. It is refreshing and moisturizing. However, I don't find it to be groundbreaking or anything new in terms of eye treatments - and I didn't notice a big difference when using it, even compared to just using an all-over face moisturizer as my "eye treatment".
This is the only eye cream that I have tried so far that I have used the longest (3 months or so) without experiencing any issues.
I like Tart's packaging, only down side is it's not very hygienic, but not a big deal as I always wash my hands before handling products. Like most eye creams, Tarte's eye cream is creamy and light. I found it to be hydrating (without any greasy residue), doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes, it does brighten my under eyes somewhat (my dark circles aren't too bad but it is hard to see dramatic changes). As for the firming properties, I cannot verify that claim as my eye area is still quite firm and mostly line free.
For $46, this eye cream is quite nice. And since it contains mango, rice bran and coconut, it's definitely a nice change from the usual ingredients used in other eye creams. This one might be a keeper as it doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes. However, I am still on the lookout for the perfect eye cream. While this product is quite close to being the perfect eye cream for me, it's still missing something.

AMSTERDAM: European wheat futures fell on Friday to a near-six-month low, pressured by soybean-driven losses in Chicago and a steadying in the euro after an earlier fall.
* Benchmark March milling wheat on the Paris futures market settled 3.00 euros or 1.21 percent lower at 243.50 euros a tonne.
* Just before the close it traded at 243.00 euros, under a low of 244.00 euros set on Thursday and marking a level last seen for the contract on July 6.
* "We're very closely tied to the US market," a futures dealer said. "Paris is trying to gain ground, but Chicago is keeping us in check."
* US wheat also traded near a six-month low, pressured by a sharp fall in soybeans and a rise in the dollar.
* US soybeans fell over 1 percent to a six-week low on Friday, the fourth consecutive daily drop, on prospects the US government may increase its forecast size of the US crop, a likely bumper harvest of South American soy and China's cancellation of orders for US soybeans
* The euro, however, recovered from earlier losses against the dollar, thereby depriving Paris prices of support.
* Paris futures had been earlier underpinned by firm technical support between 244 and 245 euros, which prevented the market from slipping further.
* Volumes were moderate, with many operators in France not expected to return until next week from the Christmas and New Year holidays.
* French ports continued to show a long line-up of grain loadings after heavy export sales towards the end of 2012.
* Port data showed a cargo was due to load at Bordeaux next week with 25,000 tonnes of maize for Japan. This follows a first-ever bulk maize shipment to Japan in November and reflects unusual flows in a tight maize market hit by a US drought.
* German wheat was quoted at large premiums over Paris, although volumes were thin and many market participants still on holiday.
* Standard milling wheat for January delivery in Hamburg was offered for sale down 2 euros but well over Paris at 261 euros a tonne, with buyers at around 259 euros. Prices were pushed down by the afternoon weakness in the Paris market.
* "The physical market is taking a very different view of the supply and demand outlook than the futures markets, which are at considerably lower levels," one German trader said. "But the wheat supply balance is very tight following the poor crops in Russia, Ukraine, Argentina and Australia."
* "The EU and United States have good export prospects in the coming weeks as our rivals exit the market, and this is reflected in higher premiums in the physical market," he said.
* There was also market talk that some EU consumers could be considering importing US wheat. The EU has a quota for duty-free US wheat imports, which otherwise are blocked from coming to Europe by heavy customs duties.
* Another trader said cheaper US wheat could be attractive to buyers in some EU countries including Spain, Britain, Ireland, the Netherlands and even Germany.
* "US soft red winter wheat for January shipment is currently around $336 a tonne cif to the Rotterdam/Antwerp port range and $335 cif to Spanish ports. This is about 256 euros to Rotterdam/Antwerp and 255-6 euros to Spain."
* "These US prices are starting to look attractive, especially to feedmakers. I would not be surprised to see the EU award US wheat import licences next week."
* Repeated demand and tight supplies kept German feed wheat around the same level or even above milling prices.
* Feed wheat for January-March delivery in the South Oldenburg market near the Netherlands was offered for sale down 4 euros but above milling wheat at 270 euros a tonne, with buyers at 268 euros.

Don't Know What To Do?

Teen Drug Abuse Often Overlooked by Pediatricians
Screening Tool Can Help Identify Risk
Adolescents who have problems with substance use often aren't identified during routine pediatric visits, according to a study to be released in the November issue of Pediatrics, the peer-reviewed, scientific journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).
"We found that most pediatricians significantly underestimate the severity of adolescent substance use," said the study's primary author, Dr. Celeste R. Wilson, an investigator with the Center for Adolescent Substance Abuse Research (CeASAR) at Children's Hospital Boston. "Since many pediatricians do not use a structured screening tool, but rely solely on clinical impressions, these findings are of great concern."
The study, funded by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, involved more than 500 14- to 18-year-old patients arriving for routine health care at Children's Adolescent/Young Adult Medical Clinic and more than 100 of their medical care providers.
The providers completed a form giving their clinical impressions about the adolescent's level of substance use (none, minimal, problem use, abuse, dependence).
After the visit, the adolescents underwent structured diagnostic interviews, and their level of substance use was formally classified.
Wilson's analysis found that more than 60 percent of the time, pediatricians knew that adolescents had used alcohol or other drugs, but in most cases the doctors thought the problem was less severe than it actually was. The pediatricians accurately identified substance-related problems less than 15 percent of the time.
Abuse Identified in Only 1 of 10A clinical assessment of "abuse" was accurately identified only 10 percent of the time and "dependence" was missed in all 36 diagnosed cases. Providers correctly recognized 75 percent of adolescents with substance abuse or dependence as being users, but in half these cases, the providers characterized the level of use as minimal.
These data underscore the relevance of the American Medical Association's guidelines, which recommend that health care providers screen all adolescent patients annually for use of alcohol and drugs as part of their routine physical exam. Yet, while most pediatricians report screening "almost all" of their patients for substance use, the majority do not use a structured questionnaire.
"Our study suggests that providers' clinical impressions of adolescents' substance use are not always accurate," Wilson noted. "The routine use of a structured screening tool would likely improve identification of adolescents with substance-related pathology and should be considered for use with all adolescent patients."
CRAFT Test Can Help DiagnosisOne such tool is the CRAFFT test, developed by Wilson's colleagues at CeASAR, which asks adolescents to answer six questions related to alcohol and drugs:
C -- Have you ever ridden in a CAR driven by someone (including yourself) who was "high" or had been using alcohol or drugs?
R -- Do you ever use alcohol or drugs to RELAX, feel better about yourself, or fit in?
A -- Do you ever use alcohol or drugs while you are by yourself, ALONE?
F -- Do you ever FORGET things you did while using alcohol or drugs?
F -- Do your family or FRIENDS ever tell you that you should cut down on your drinking or drug use?
T -- Have you gotten into TROUBLE while you were using alcohol or drugs?
The accuracy of the CRAFFT screening tool was reported in a 2002 study conducted by Wilson's colleague, Dr. John Knight, who was also co-author of the current study, which used data from the same population of adolescents. The Adolescent/Young Adult Medical Clinic serves both inner city and suburban youth from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds, racial groups and social strata, making it likely that the findings of both studies are applicable to the population at large.
Substance abuse is the number one health problem in the U.S., with an estimated annual cost of over $414 billion. It affects men and women of all races, ethnic groups and ages -- including adolescents.

Te Rere Cove, Auckland NZ
205 Church Bay Rd, Waiheke Island, Auckland 1971, New Zealand
Interior, exterior and aerial photos page: 1
Descritpion: "An extraordinary acquisition for the privileged property owner, Te Rere Cove estate embodies lifestyle, quality and a standard of living to compete with the finest residential property currently available on a global scale.
Thoughtfully and meticulously designed by Bryce Ardern in French Colonial Plantation style, the exquisite 1800sqm residence sprawls majestically atop a ridge, bathed in light and unparalleled sea views. Neighboured by the retreats of some of the world's most influential personalities, the home's columned verandas and breezeways add a heightened sense of openness and grandeur and seamlessly lead out to the 34 acres of lawns, formal gardens and vines, all in an unequalled waterfront position.
The accompanying vineyard itself produces a bounty of Syrah the wine Waiheke Island is renowned for, as well as chardonnay, pinot gris and sauvignon blanc grape varietals.
The main home lends itself to being a luxury lodge or private escape for those who wish to indulge in the heavenly atmosphere of the islands micro-climate a short distance by chopper or boat to the heart of Auckland's thriving metropolis. Planned around grand spaces and using materials and processes of the highest sophistication, the Interior decoration by award winning designers has created a home that both internally and externally exudes comfort, grace and a level of luxury that can only be described as magnificent.
