I'm going to show you two videos this week — both about an interesting early form of tempered glass called Prince Rupert's drops. Allegedly first made in the 1640's by Prince Rupert of the Rhine (in the modern-day Netherlands), Prince Rupert's drops are made by dropping hot molten glass into cold water. The glass rapidly cools into a tadpole shape with a long, thin tail. Since the outer part of the drop cools first, it's compressed when the inner part cools and contracts later (leaving the inner part in tension).
As a result of this odd combination of stresses, a Prince Rupert's drop can take hammer blows without breaking, but will shatter explosively if the tail end is snapped off with even gentle finger pressure. A high-speed video study discovered that the "crack front" unleashed by snapping off a drop's tail propagates through the drop at speeds of up to about 1900 m/sec (4200 miles per hour).
The first video is a quick presentation on the glass by the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York:
The second video (longer, but with no narration) was produced by the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Washington:

Starting over three years ago, what began as a simple question about a curious photo turned into an intensive search. My self-initiated challenge became to try to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt the circumstances surrounding a photo of a very young Stan Musial. In it, The Man, then still a very young man, wore a St. Louis Cardinals jersey that was clearly not his trademark number 6. His cap was of the bird design used in 1941, rather than the 1942 StL logo cap. The photo's sheer existence, which led to the discovery of several others in which Musial was also wearing the number 19, created conflict. A significant number of well-respected sources, including Musial himself via his biography, stated that the future Hall of Famer only wore the number 6 during his 22 years with St. Louis. Then how did this photo come to be? My tasks were related but distinct – to determine both when and where the photo was taken. The recent passing of the greatest St. Louis Cardinals player of all t...

How to Get Rid of Severe Period Pain
As most women know, menstrual cramps can be excruciatingly painful. On the worst days of your period, you may find it hard to stand up and probably feel like spending hours in bed. However, you may not realize that over-the-counter painkillers are not the only thing that can alleviate your suffering. Read on to discover five other effective and straightforward things that you can do to dramatically reduce the intensity of period pain.
1) Be careful about your position when lying down
When you are lying down, try to keep your knees bent and your legs elevated (using several pillows or cushions). This position reduces stretching of the pelvic muscles, and your cramps will usually be less severe as a result. If your period pain is mainly located in your back rather than your abdominal area, try lying on one side with your knees bent and your legs pulled up towards your chest. This position removes some pressure from your back, and this usually leads to a reduction in period pain as well.
2) Investigate taking hormonal contraceptives
Several studies on the effects of hormonal contraceptives (such as the combined pill and the implant) have shown that some women experience a dramatic reduction in period pain. However, this benefit comes most frequently and consistently from the combined pill, and it is vital to note that this pill is not suitable for everyone. For women who smoke, suffer from high blood pressure or experience visual migraines, the risks of taking the combined pill far outweigh any potential reduction in period pain.
3) Invest in a good heating pad
A heating pad can be placed against your lower abdomen, and some of these pads can also be attached using a belt (so that you do not have to worry about the pad sliding off when you posture changes). Heat almost invariably reduces the severity of period pain, so this would be a worthwhile purchase.
4) Gently massage your abdomen
Most women don't want someone else touching their torso when they are bloated and sore, but massaging your own abdomen can sometimes help to reduce period pain. It is thought that this is because it encourages an increase in blood flow to the tired muscles of your torso, and better blood flow helps to provide your muscles with nutrients (as well as removing any acid produced by the overworked muscles).
5) Consider sexual stimulation (if you feel comfortable with it)
Some women could not be less interested in sexual activity when they are going through their monthly period, while others find that their sex drive is actually even higher than usual. If you do feel comfortable having sex or stimulating yourself, several studies have confirmed that the uterine contractions that accompany orgasms can help to 9ibstantially reduce the severity of period pain.

For urban renewal, redevelopment, or new development managed by a regional stormwater management facility, municipalities generally require a conformance study of some sort, showing that the proposed development conforms to previously approved land development or stormwater management permits. This usually takes the form of some engineering checks, some simple figures, and either a letter or a short report showing conformance.
As an engineer, you may need a specialist to evaluate the conformance of your design to a previous design. As an architect or owner, you may no longer have a suitable working relationship with the engineer who performed the previous study. In any case, Campbell Civil Consulting can acquire the previously approved hydrology study, review your current design, and evaluate it for conformance to the previous permit. For simple hydrologic systems designed by others, requiring only a letter to a municipality, CCC typically charges $500 to review the documents and write the letter, provided the design conforms. This fee is halved ($250) for hydrology studies CCC itself previously performed. In cases where the previous hydrologic system is complicated enough to require additional computer modeling, or in municipalities that require a more detailed report, the fee may be $1,000 or more. Please feel free to contact Campbell Civil Consulting about your project to discuss the particulars, and request a quote.

LASEK Questions and Answers Archive
Q&A: What is the price for LASIK eye surgery if I am nearsighted and have astigmatism in both eyes?
I have been looking into Lasik/Lasek surgery for awhile now. I am at a point where I wish to price the surgery that I will require. I know I need to go to a few local dr's and get a free consultation to see if I am even a candidate, but I would like to have an opinion as to whether I am wasting my time: I have astigmatism in both eyes, one far worse than the other, and am near-sighted. I have been putting $$ in my savings account and would like a price range for Lasik/Lasek on such a patient with my type problems. Is this possible? Just a range...I want to know how far away I am. This is something I have been wanting for years!- Sheryl
The average price is about $1600 per eye for this procedure. Most offer a free consultation with the surgeon - that is what consultation means. You would need to be evaluated before one can tell you if you are a good candidate. www.canovision.com
-- David B. Cano, M.D.
West Palm Beach, Florida
Q&A: What are epithelial inclusions and why not consider PRK in stead of LASEK or LASIK eye surgery?
i am not sure what epithelial inclusions are. also i have not been able to get to the file on lasek from my computer. do you have some info on lasek. also why no prk. thanks audrey
PRK can cause scaring after RK, and inclusions are cells in the incisions. Hope that information helps.
--Ernest W. Kornmehl, MD
Brookline, Massachusetts
Q&A: Am I candidate for LASIK if I have thin corneas?
After my first appointment, I was told everything looks good for the Lasik procedure, but I may not be a canadate for enhancements because my cornias were to thin. Is this a cause for concern for the Lasik procedure in the first place?- John
You may want to consider LASEK or PRK instead as an option.
--David B. Cano, M.D.
West Palm Beach, Florida
Q&A: Can LASEK eye surgery cause cataracts?
Dear Dr., I had Lasek surgery less than a year ago. I would like to know if Lasek surgery can cause cataracts? I am 55 years old. Any information or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.- James
Answer 1:
LASIK, LASEK, and PRK do not cause cataracts. Andrew Caster, MD
--Andrew Caster, MD, FACS
Beverly Hills, California
Answer 2:
LASEK or PRK itself is not a known cause of cataracts as the laser does not penetrat through the cornea. Topical cortico-steroids that are used in refractive procedures can in some cases cause cataracts after prolonged use (many months or years), which is not usually the case with refractive surgery.
--David B. Cano, M.D.
West Palm Beach, Florida
Q&A: Has anyone heard of LASEK? I had this procedure done March of this year and it is wonderful.
Has anyone heard of LASEK? I had this procedure done March of this year. I was wearing -7's (contacts) in both my eyes and standard LASIK was not a good option for me. I had very thin corneas. Dr. Yee of Herman Eye Center is performing LASEK on patients with thin corneas and it is virtually painless - at least in my case. He makes a flap out of your epithelium which is a lot safer and painless like I said. Even his patients that are candidates for standard LASIK are choosing to do LASEK because of the low risk of injury to your corneal tisssue. He is currently co-authoring with other doctors over seas about this procedure and to my knowledge is the only doctor in Houston and possibly the US performing this procedure. I am six months out and seeing 20/15. It is wonderful.- Maria
Answer 1:
It is great to hear your experience. I recommend and perform LASEK on people who are not good candidates for LASIK, such as people with thin corneas. Although the healing period is much longer than LASIK, it is an excellent alternative. Andrew Caster, MD Beverly Hills, CA
--Andrew Caster, MD, FACS
Beverly Hills, California
Answer 2:
Dear Maria, LASEK (Laser assisted seu-epithelial keratectomy) as it is called has been aroung for several years and has become more popular in the United States recently. It is basically a version of PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) which I have been doing since 1994. I have done LASEK on similar cases like yours with great results (In fact, I believe that I am one of the first to do this procedure in the Palm Beaches). It has several advantages over LASIK in that you can treat thinner cornea. The corneal nerve regeneration is quicker. There are NO corneal flap complications that we all hear so much about. On the down side is the fact that you need to be on drops for a longer time, vision stays blurry for about one to two weeks. A bandage contact lense is used and pain is often greater. There is also a higher amount of haze in some patients, but this usually does noty affect vision and often goes away. The procedure basically is like PRK, but you spare the epithelium and remove it as a sheet after cutting it with a shallow trephine ring and 20% alcohol to help loosen this layer. This allows you to do the treatment directly on the cornea and replace the epithelium and place a bandage contact lens for 4 days. Drops are often need for at least a month unlike LASIK which is usually about 4-5 days. The advancement of newer lasers with smoother profiles and scanning lasers with trackers has made this a great and safe option for laser vision correction in many people. In fact some surgeons offer LASEK as the only procedure. I currently offer both procedures, but will do LASEK on a patient with thinner corneas. Thanks for your insight and comments on your successful procedure. David B. Cano,

Q&A: With me having to take Coumadin am I safe to have the Laser Vision Correction?
With me having to take Coumadin am I safe to have the Laser Vision Correction. This is something I'm interested in but don't know when I'll be able to. JL Stroud- jennifer
Because Coumadin is a blood thinner it may increase the potential for a reported serious LASIK complication, a subretinal/submacular hemorhage. People on bloodthinners should consider other means of refractive surgery if they are suitable candidates.(PRK/LASEK) Another option would be to come off the bloodthinners if you get the blessing of the doctor that prescribed them. Do not stop your blood thinners without consulting your primary medical doctor.

Q&A: Can LASIK eye surgery correct my vision if I have conical shaped eyes and macular degeneration?
any new improvements on lasek surgery? I was told 4 yrs ago that my eyes were to conical for surgery and that I have macular degeneration. I have worn glasses and contact lenses since I was 6 yrs. I'm now 43.- lisa
Dear Lisa, As you probably know, laser vision correctioncan only improve the "optics" of your eyes. So if your vision is still bad because of macular degeneration laser cannot help. We can now correct for astigmatism, which is the "conical shape" of your eyes. I suggest a re-evaluation to see if you can be treated.

UPDATE 3-UK scraps 1 bln stg carbon capture technology scheme
* 2 major CCS projects in Britain at risk
* Comes ahead of global climate talks in Paris next week (Adds comments by Capture Power, Shell)
By Susanna Twidale
LONDON, Nov 25 (Reuters) - Britain has scrapped plans to spend up to 1 billion pounds ($1.5 billion) to help commercialise the technology for capturing carbon dioxide emissions from power plants and storing them underground, the government said on Wednesday, putting two major projects at risk of being cancelled.
The announcement comes just days before negotiators from more than 190 countries are due to meet in Paris to thrash out a global deal to cut greenhouse gas emissions blamed for rising temperatures.
"Following the Chancellor's Autumn Statement, HM Government confirms that the 1 billion-pound ring-fenced capital budget for the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Competition is no longer available," the government said.
Britain has two potential large-scale CCS schemes, one being developed at an existing gas-fired plant in Peterhead, Scotland, by Shell and utility SSE.
A second, White Rose, is being worked on at the UK's biggest coal-fired power station by the plant operator Drax and engineering consortium Capture Power, which includes GE and BOC, part of the Linde Group.
"It is too early to make any definitive decisions about the future of the White Rose CCS Project. However, it is difficult to imagine its continuation in the absence of crucial government support," Leigh Hackett, CEO of Capture Power, said in a statement. Continued...

Melvyn Megitt, 56, who ran four surgeries in the Manchester area until 1997, is accused of serious professional misconduct.
He prescribed treatment that was too extensive for his patients' needs, an orthodontist told the professional conduct committee of the General Dental Council.
The hearing was told that in one case a teenage girl had been treated for nine years for protruding front teeth when she might only have needed less than a year's treatment.
Amina Begum, who was 16 when Mr Megitt began treating her in 1987, had what was described as "a very mild" condition. However, she endured numerous tooth extractions. The hearing heard that the overjet (the protruding front teeth) "had been worsened from 5mm to 12mm and six teeth had been extracted".
Ms Begum said that despite starting treatment in 1987 she was still wearing a brace at night.
Dr David Lawton, a practising orthodontist since 1962 with more than 20 years' experience as a lecturer at the London Hospital and chairman of the British Orthodontist Society, told the hearing the measures Mr Megitt had used in nine particular cases had not produced satisfactory results.
He said Mr Megitt had followed the philosophy and practice of the eminent clinician Harry Orton, but he added: "He did not understand fully what Mr Orton, who was a superb clinician, was doing." Dr Lawton said the result on several occasions had been an "increased" protrusion of front teeth which was disadvantageous to the patient's health.
After detailed assessments of 11 cases, Dr Lawton concluded: "Mr Megitt's clinical standards are low and unacceptable in a speciality like orthodontics.
"I find it totally unacceptable. It is some of the worst treatment I have ever come across and I have unfortunately seen quite a range of treatment.
"His diagnosis was terrible. His records were terrible. He was just not up to standard. The treatment was substandard all the way through."
Mr Megitt, who was not at the hearing in London, is accused of serious professional misconduct for seeing too many patients and failing adequately to examine them or get permission for treatment. The bulk of the charges refer to 11 NHS patients he saw between 1987 and 1997 when he ran surgeries in Altrincham, Oldham, Sale and Salford.
He is also accused of failing to provide a high enough standard of care after it was noted the number of braces he fixed was unusually high.
Dr Lawton said Mr Megitt handled and estimated 1,200 to 1,500 cases per year, which meant he had a caseload of 2,500 - "an excessive number" - compared with the average seen by most dentists, which was between 500 and 700.
Earlier, Timothy Preston, representing the council, said that between 1994 and 1995 Mr Megitt, from Sale, Cheshire, was the highest earner among general dental practitioners in the country, making pounds 600,000 - the average was pounds 80,000.
The hearing continues.

AbstractDESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Stroke is a major cause of morbidity in the United States, affecting over 600,000 people annually. The only therapeutics currently available for the treatment of stroke are thrombolytic agents such as tPA, which have limited efficacy and are inappropriate for many patients due to risk of hemorrhage. One promising alternative to thrombolytics has been a class of agents that block glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity by targeting the NMDA receptor. These drugs have worked well in animal models of stroke but have failed in clinical trials, most often due to the appearance of neurological or cardiovascular side effects at dosages lower than the efficacious range. In a Phase I research program, Arbor Vita has identified a class of inhibitors that act downstream of NMDA receptors termed PSD-95 antagonists. These inhibitors are effective in rodent models of focal ischemia without blocking the electrical or calcium channel functions of the NMDA receptor. Preclinical development of the lead PSD-95 inhibitor, the fusion peptide TatNR2B9c, demonstrated impressive central nervous system safety, an important benefit versus traditional NMDA receptor blockers. Moreover, the long term toxicity of TatNR2B9c was minimal. Acute cardiovascular side effects were present, however, at doses only slightly higher than those predicted to be effective in humans. These effects were caused by a portion of the fusion peptide required for cellular uptake, but not involved directly in PSD-95 blockade. The focus of this proposal is to modify this portion of the fusion peptide, to overcome the cardiovascular side effects without a loss in potency or efficacy. The resulting improved PSD- 95 inhibitor would then be developed by carrying out essential preclinical safety and efficacy studies leading towards subsequent clinical testing and eventual commercialization. The Specific Aims of the proposal are: 1) identify TatNR2B9c derivatives that are cell permeable and bind PSD-95 potently, but do not trigger cardiovascular side effects, 2) demonstrate efficacy of the most promising drugs in the rat permanent pial vessel occlusion (P3VO) model of stroke, 3) confirm the improved safety of the lead peptides by conducting a dog cardiovascular (CV) safety study, 4) characterize the neuroprotective efficacy of the lead peptides as guided by the STAIR (Stroke Academic Industry Roundtable) recommendations, and 5) conduct the complete battery of preclinical safety and toxicity studies required to file a successful Investigational New Drug Application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Completion of this research will lead to clinical development of a peptide therapeutic with the potential to revolutionize the treatment of stroke and thereby address a massive unmet medical need. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: There are no approved drugs directed at protecting against the brain damage caused by stroke, only drugs which can help restore blood flow to the afflicted area. The present grant aims to improve and advance towards clinical testing drugs directed at a novel target identified by Arbor Vita that can be administered after a stroke occurs and greatly reduce the resulting brain damage.

text: Eight of Bangor's biggest arts organizations met Monday to announce that from now on, they'll be working together. It's an initiative they say will help show off the city's rich culture and arts scene. They're forming a consortium known as Bangor Arts. It includes the Bangor Museum and History Center, Bangor Public Library, Bangor Symphony Orchestra, Maine Discovery Museum, Penobscot Theatre Company, River City Cinema, Robinson Ballet and the Umaine Museum of Art.And when those groups join together to make an announcement, they put on a bit of a show."I think it really helps being able to market ourselves together, to help showcase the wealth of artistic opportunities that are in the city of Bangor," says Scott Levy of the Penobscot Theatre, chair of the group.Levy lifted the curtain on a new logo for their group, meant to symbolize the energy of the arts downtown. They also showed off a new website and a Facebook page."We compete, but really when we collaborate together I think we all get further down the road," says Dana Lippitt with the Bangor Museum and History Center. "Rising tides lift all the boats."Lippitt says their groups have long collaborated in many small ways, but this gives them more leverage."When we're looking for grants and things if you collaborate on those it increases our chances of success," Lippitt says. The group is funded in part by the Maine Arts Commission and the City of Bangor. The folks here says it's all about public engagement in the arts, which leads to economic development."It's an education mission, it's a public access mission, it's a community development mission," says Michael Grillo with the River City Cinema.Levy says, in a way, Bangor now has its own arts council."We meet regularly. We meet once a month. To be in a place where the executive directors of the arts organizations actually like each other and work with each other is a rarity. So that we're able to do that," Levy says, "is fabulous and in the end, helps the citizenry."

SUBMITTED: Thursday, September 16, 2010POSTED: Thursday, September 16, 2010
I am a contract employee for other companies (not DTE) in web and software developement.
You state "DTE does not pay for first 3 weeks if they can show your performance not good" (spelling corrections are mine).
If you did not perform to the expectations of the position - why should they pay you? You have no right to ask for pay. I understand you put time into the position, however, if you really are a J2EE professional you would be able to perform up to the expectations. (Same goes for firing you with 10 minutes notice, if you were not performing, they have every right to fire you).
I am sorry that you feel you wasted 3 weeks of your life and should be compensated, but why should you be compensated for poor work?
(Please note, you do not dispute that the work was not up to par, you are only complaining that you were not paid. I am unable to come to any conclusion other than you are not denying that your work was less than satisfactory.)
Also, not to be insulting, please know that in this report, you do not come off as a professional. You have multiple spelling and grammatical errors, and some words are missing. You also have neglected to format your report at all. Most people would not take you seriously if you complained in this format, however, (based on the name you call yourself) I am assuming that you're not a native English speaker, and have given you the benefit of the doubt.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Extra! Extra!
When we see reporters downtown, we always hope they are here to visit the Museum of Jewish Heritage and write fabulous things about our exhibits and educational initiatives. While that is sometimes true, now they have another really good reason to be downtown, according to the New York Times.
We can't wait to welcome all of our new media neighbors. Condé Nast, The Daily News, U.S. News & World Report, Newsweek, The Daily Beast, and The National Enquirer will all be moving to the Financial District and World Trade area. I guess we will have to be extra careful when getting dressed in the morning now that Condé Nast will be nearby. We don't want to end up in the "don't" section of a magazine. We also look forward to hearing what the National Enquirer makes of the "Sad Panda" in our neighborhood. Could he be an alien?

Holocaust Remembrance at the U.N.
This blog comes from Bonnie Gurewitsch, curator and archivist at the Museum. This week she participated in the annual Holocaust and the United Nations Programme event at the UN in commemoration of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which took place yesterday.
I was pleased to have been invited to speak with Frank Blaichman, a Holocaust survivor who was a partisan. The master of ceremonies, Kiyo Akasak, the UN Under-Secretary General for Communications and Public Information, greeted me and Blaichman personally, and briefly welcomed the audience, which was comprised of at least 250 people of all ages and ethnicities. Then they showed the film, Daring to Resist, a very good one hr documentary made about10 years ago with the help of the Museum, about 3 women resisters. The film was selected because of the theme of this year's commemorations - Women and the Holocaust: Courage and Compassion.
I then spoke briefly about the historical aspects of the film putting Jewish resistance in context with special attention to women's experiences. Then Mr. Blaichman offered his remarks. When the floor was first opened up for questions, the audience remained silent. Then Kimberly Mann, the very personable moderator asked two questions she had prepared to get things started. Her question to me was a good one: "If you were a young person and wanted to resist the Nazis, where and how would you find a resistance group?" It gave me a chance to discuss the role of the Zionist youth organizations, Jewish community structures in small towns, and Jewish - non-Jewish cooperation. After Frank Blaichman answered Kimberly's question for him, the audience woke up and there was a lively interchange for a good 50 minutes.
Most questions were intelligent and thoughtful. Some of the more interesting questions addressed the issues of survivor silence, assistance from the local population, what did people in the US know in 1938 [ in reaction to the St. Louis incident], and why people did not believe the reports about mass murder.
By the time the moderator closed the event, the audience was disappointed that the evening was ending. After the event several people came over to me with questions. It was well attended and well run, and the audience was interested and appreciative. It was nice that the Museum of Jewish Heritage was included in the U.N's programming.

New, Free Website for Teaching Students About the Holocaust
As many of you know, today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. While the Museum of Jewish Heritage honors the memory of those who perished all year round, today we mark the day in a very special way.
We are proud to commemorate the day by continuing our commitment to helping students of all backgrounds around the globe create a personal connection to history. In order to do this, we are launching an innovative website, Coming of Age Now, Coming of Age in the Holocaust.
Coming of Age, which is designed for middle and high school students and educators, introduces students to the stories of young people who survived the Holocaust. This interactive, online experience features 13 first-person accounts of young people who survived the Holocaust. The website guides students through an exploration of experiences, historical events, and ethical issues. Compelling videos feature the survivors' stories about their experiences before, during and after the Holocaust.
This is a wonderful resource, especially for students who do not have the ability to meet with Holocaust survivors in person. The immediacy of hearing survivors' stories in their own words and in their own voices will encourage a new generation to reflect thoughtfully about the Holocaust and its relevance today.
Please let teachers and parents in your community know about this new website. For more information, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com or call 646.437.4290.
Development of the Coming of Age website is made possible by a generous grant from the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany: Rabbi Israel Miller Fund for Shoah Research, Documentation and Education.

Year of the Rabbit
It's time to gear up for the Lunar New Year, which is February 3. In addition to dreaming of dim sum, we're excited to announce two terrific ways to ring in the year of the rabbit.
Our friends at the Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA) will be hosting a family festival this Sunday, January 30. The day will include storytelling with celebrated children's book author Kam Mak, a noodle-making workshop, a special lion dance performance and workshop, and family-friendly gallery talks through MOCA's core exhibit as well as through our newest exhibit, Chinese Puzzles: Games for the Hands and the Mind. There will also be arts and crafts activities throughout the day. The celebration is for ages 4 and up.
We also want to remind you that it is not too late to sign up for the Museum of Jewish Heritage's first-ever Mah Jongg Marathon on February 6. The day will include the chance to win a room and dinner at the New York Marriott Downtown and many other fabulous prizes. Special guests such as author and illustrator Maira Kalman will also be stopping by to chat and perhaps play a hand. Register now and help us put the fun back in fundraising!

Preview of Intriguing Film
On January 25 at 7:30 p.m., join our friends at the JCC in Manhattan for a special preview screening of Berlin 36, a fascinating film based on the real life of Jewish athlete Gretel Bergmann and her attempt to compete in the 1936 Summer Olympics in Germany. She was at first denied a spot on the team because she was Jewish. She then enrolled in school in London where she continued to practice and improve her high jump. When the International Olympic Committee demanded that German Jews be able to compete, Gretel is called back from England to train. Despite being one of the best high jumpers in the world, at the last minute, when it was too late for the Americans to boycott, the Nazi party replaced her. The film follows the unlikely friendship of Gretel and "Marie," the athlete that replaced her, who was later revealed to have been a man.

A Visit to Mount Herzl
This blog is from Museum educator Monica Brandwein who recently returned from a trip to Israel where she was visiting family and friends including her brother who is studying there for a year.
After learning about the life of Hannah Senesh in the current special exhibition, Fire in My Heart, I found myself drawn to her story. Therefore, I thought it was important to make the time to visit her grave during my trip to Israel. Hannah is buried at Mount Herzl, a large cemetery in Jerusalem where many important figures of the state of Israel are buried. When I finally found her grave there was a large Birthright group standing around it. The leader of the group was playing a recording of her poem Eli, Eli. Immediately I was brought to tears. It was amazing to see how many people were there to pay their respects. After the song was over, two of the soldiers that were with the group lit a candle on her tombstone. The sight of this was so moving and inspiring. After the Birthright group left, several young women in the Israeli Army arrived. The leader of the group began to explain in Hebrew who Hannah Senesh was and why she was buried there. This experience opened my eyes to the important role Hannah Senesh played during World War II and in Israeli history and how she has become so special to so many people.

Welcome FASPE Alumni
This weekend we are delighted to welcome FASPE alums from the 2010 medical and law programs.
FASPE, which stands for Fellowships at Auschwitz for the Study of Professional Ethics, is an innovative program for students in professional schools designed to address contemporary ethical issues through a unique historical context. The Fellowships provide journalism, law, medical, business, and seminary students a structured program of study that initially focuses on the role of their chosen professions in Nazi Germany and the Holocaust and uses that historic focus as a framework for the consideration of contemporary ethical issues. FASPE is under the auspices of the Museum of Jewish Heritage.
Twelve to fifteen Fellows from each profession are chosen to participate in FASPE each year through a competitive process that draws applicants from professional schools across the country. Following an introductory session in New York, the Fellows travel to Berlin, Krakow, and Oswiecim (Auschwitz). In Germany and Poland, the in situ program looks at the role of the profession in the development and implementation of policies and programs that led to the Holocaust.
FASPE is predicated upon both the potent symbolism of Auschwitz and the Fellows' personal experience while in Germany and Poland to help the Fellows explore the power, potential, and challenges of their chosen professions.
Lead support for FASPE is provided by C. David Goldman, Frederick and Margaret Marino, and the Eder Family Foundation. FASPE is also supported by the Task Force for International Cooperation on Holocaust Education, Remembrance and Research and other generous donors.
On Sunday and Monday, many of the returning students are presenting papers, recently published in a journal. The Keynote Speaker is Dr. Thomas Duffy, is Professor of Medicine at Yale School of Medicine. He is currently Director of The Program for Humanities in Medicine at Yale, bringing attention to the links among the arts, humanities, and the practice of medicine by a series of lectures each year for the faculty, students and surrounding community members. Dr. Duffy is the founding member of the Ethics Committee which analyzes topics such as euthanasia and the doctor-patient relationship. Dr. Duffy has been teaching medical students in both pre-clinical and clinical years, residents and fellows, and visiting students for more than 25 years.
If you would like to attend, e-mail email@example.com.

Get Ready for a Royal Rendezvous Thursday Night
No, Prince William and Kate Middleton are not staying at the Ritz Carlton, but there will be fireworks downtown because of some royal shenanigans.
Three Cunard ships, the Queen Mary, the Queen Victoria, and the newly launched Queen Elizabeth will all set sail Thursday night, and before they depart our glorious city they will meet in the Harbor and pose with their equally regal friend, the Statue of Liberty, as a fireworks extravaganza dazzles the night sky. The ships, which comprise the entire Cunard fleet, will gather at 6 p.m. The fireworks, a Grucci production, are scheduled for 6:45.
Battery Park
Robert F. Wagner Jr. Park
The Esplanade
Hudson River Park

We will have spectacular views from our little corner of the world; it's even an incentive to work late tomorrow night. The folks at Cunard have identified some great views, and we couldn't agree more:
Battery Park
Robert F. Wagner Jr. Park
The Esplanade
Hudson River Park
The event is dubbed "The Meeting of the Queens," forcing me to ask, "Will Queen Elizabeth tweet about this event?"

The Blessing of Song
I was so sad to hear the news about the passing of Debbie Friedman, who revolutionized Jewish music. I can't hear her songs without thinking back fondly on my days in NFTY (North American Federation of Temple Youth). Her melodies were a big part of the soundtrack of my high school years. In a way, I credit her music as helping me stay engaged in Jewish life after my bat mitzvah, a time when so many of my peers dropped out of Hebrew school. When I first went to a youth group event and heard the contemporary melodies, I felt at home. Judaism wasn't a religion about old men. She reached out to us and made Judaism very relevant, accessible, and beautiful. Now many years later, her music is not just sung by teenagers. You can go into many synagogues and hear it and feel its power to connect congregants to each other and to the ancient texts. May her memory be a blessing.

WAILUKU, Hawaii (AP) — The company managing billionaire Larry Ellison's investments on Lanai is matching Maui County grants in support of small businesses on the island.
The Mayor's Office of Economic Development said Tuesday Pulama Lanai's chief operating officer offered to match the office's small business revitalization grants to Lanai businesses.
The grant program is designed to help businesses with fewer than 10 employees operating in the rural communities of Lanai, Hana and Molokai.
The program has reserved $20,000 for the island of Lanai. With Pulama Lanai's match, it has $40,000.
The grants may be used for new equipment, renovation, websites, marketing or other purposes to help businesses grow.
Ellison's company changed its name from Lanai Resorts to Pulama Lanai in July. Ellison bought 97 percent of Lanai last year.

On a related note, ObjectWritable can be used as input or output type, and can wrap any Writable class, thus permitting polymorphic inputs and outputs. Nutch uses this to, e.g., combine a URL's incoming anchor texts and its content when indexing. The input type is ObjectWritable, and the indexer's InputFormat wraps values from a variety of files. The indexing reducer can then use the 'instanceof' operator to determine how to process each input value. To be more object-oriented, one could have all of these classes implement some Indexable interface whose methods are invoked when reducing. Doug

Shame on Saraki if he was richer than his state before becoming a governor. If so, then his state should have been delivered from an abject poverty during his tenure through the wealth of experience he used to acquire the wealth if not by stealing or at least leaving a long lasting legacy that will mark the level at which he reduced unemployment during his era.ReplyDelete
He cannot point at numbers of lives he had affected through job creation or industrialization or diversification of the economy in his state. Rather, we can only count his achievements by becoming a senate president, having several cars worth above 500 million naira, different landed properties etc. These are our leaders, our law makers. What law will someone like him or his categories make that will not be for their selfish interest. A cartel in the palace, what do you expect.
Mind you, I'm not against being wealthy. My point is... of what purpose is their affluence?
I know of an eminent man of this country from a particular state who worth several billions of naira and he has been touching lives and still touching several families from different tribes of the country by creating job opportunities for them. Yet this man has been riding one same car for the past one year i have been seeing him.
Saraki listed more than 15 cars worth above 500 million before becoming a governor. Who knows how many he would have had after becoming a two term (8years)governor, two term senators and now senate president at his third term. He must have had mansions in the sky.
The same goes for many of them that we voted as honourables, senators and governors. By their fruits we know them. They are all the pilots of this nation today. I hope and pray they will not crash this country before landing to the nearest future.

Boar's head nailed to a tree in Forest of Dean
The sight of a boar's head nailed to a tree near Blakeney Hill Reservoir has sparked anger among wildlife protection groups - who say poaching in the Forest of Dean is an "epidemic".
The boar's head was put in the area of a popular family trail where people walk their dogs. It has been reported to the police and Forestry Commission.
Anti-boar-cull group Forest of Dean Wild Boar Cull Hunt Saboteurs have installed trail cameras in the area.
Thieves steal war medals from elderly couple
An elderly couple from the Forest of Dean say they've been left shaken after thieves broke into their home and stole war medals and cash.
The break-in happened in the village of Brockweir on Monday 27 July, while the couple were out.
The medals are from World War II and include the Burma Star, Defence Medal and War Medal.
Tesco bans small cartons of Ribena
A soft drink made in the Forest of Dean will no longer be sold by a major supermarket following concerns about child obesity.
Lunch-box sized cartons of Ribena, which is bottled in Coleford, have been banned by Tesco because of its sugar content.
The supermarket giant will continue to sell no-added sugar versions and cordial bottles.
Van Morrison tops West Country's honours list
Bath-based musician Van Morrison has been given a knighthood in the Queen's Birthday Honours. The singer-songwriter is known for shying away from publicity - but continues to perform at the age of 69.
1,163 people were honoured this year - 70% of those were recognised for their community work. Our reporter Caron Bell has been to meet two very different people from the region who've devoted their lives to helping people around them.
Scout leader Amir Cheema founded the 1st Bristol Muslim Scout Group - which led to a further 74 Muslim Scout groups across the country.
81 year old Edith Duberley from Ruardean in the Forest of Dean has been awarded a British Empire Medal for her community work.
Men arrested over Shaun James bailed until June
Five men arrested in connection with the death of Gloucestershire man Shaun James have had their police bail extended until June.
Shaun, who was 32, was run over in Cinderford in December 2002. Following a review, police are now treating his death as murder.
A 60 year old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder, and four others on suspicion of conspiracy to murder.
Wizzybug: The set of wheels transforming young lives
A four-year-old girl says her life has been changed after a charity loaned her a special wheelchair.
Daisy Holt, who lives in the Forest of Dean, has spinal muscular atrophy - a rare genetic condition which will never allow her to walk. The NHS does not normally supply electric wheelchairs to children under five - but thanks to Bath-based charity Designability, Daisy's now riding in Wizzy the Wizzybug
Her family say it has made a huge difference to all their lives - allowing Daisy to go to nursery, get out and about and do things that others take for granted.
Daisy and her family want other young children in her position to have the same chance at independence.
The Wizzybug has also helped Harmonie-Rose Allen, the little girl from Bath who lost her limbs to meningitis.

Man bailed in connection with Shaun James murder
A man arrested yesterday on suspicion of murdering Cinderford man Shaun James in 2002 has been bailed by police pending further inquiries.
The 60 year old man from Cinderford was detained on suspicion of murder and will now return to police in May.
His arrest followed the arrests of four men last week on suspicion of conspiracy to murder. Those men have also been bailed to return to police in May.
Shaun James was 32 when he was run over in Steam Mills Road in Cinderford on the evening of December 15th 2002.
Police who investigated the case at the time believed the incident was a hit and run traffic collision but were unable to identify the driver.
A cold case review of all forensic and witness evidence by the Major Crime Investigation Team (MCIT), using the benefit of new technology and investigative techniques, together with new information that has come to light over the years, led to it being reclassified as murder.
Another man arrested in Shaun James murder case
Another man has been arrested in the Shaun James murder case.
A 60-year-old man from Cinderford, Gloucestershire was arrested on suspicion of the 2002 murder this morning.
This follows last week's arrests of four men on suspicion of conspiracy to murder the 32-year-old. Those men have been bailed until May.
Shaun James was killed after leaving a pub in Cinderford in 2002 in what police at the time thought was a hit-and-run, but now believe was murder.
Gloucestershire Police are appealing for anyone with further information to come forward.
Four bailed in Shaun James murder case
Four men arrested in connection with the murder of a man in Cinderford 12 years ago have been released on bail.
Shaun James was run over in December 2002. Police who investigated the case at the time believed the incident was a hit-and-run, but it has since been reclassified as a murder. Two men arrested on Thursday, and a further two arrested on Friday - all from Gloucestershire - have been released on bail until May.

Originally posted on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 2/4/13
ESPN's Mike Reiss writes that he's "not sure it's a slam dunk" that WR Brandon Lloyd will be back with the Patriots next season. Although Lloyd caught 74 passes for 911 yards and four touchdowns this year, Reiss points to his 2013 salary as the main reason why New England could look to move on without him next season. Lloyd has a $3 million bonus to go along with $1.9 million base salary next season, which amounts to a$4.5 million cap charge, according to Reiss. Lloyd will be 32 at the start of the 2013 season and there's already been some talk that the Patriots could look to get younger at receiver next year. On top of that, it's hard to say for certain that he'll remain as effective as he's been in recent years. Pro Football Focus rated Lloyd as the No. 14 best receiver in the league this season, but the Patriots were hoping that he would provide the deep threat that they've been without since they parted ways with Randy Moss and that really wasn't the case this season. The post Patriots WR Brandon Lloyd A Cap-Casualty? appeared first on NFL Trade Rumors -.
