Before we get to this weekend's great reads, I'd like to thank journalist April Fong for an interview she conducted with me a couple of weeks ago that appeared in the Toronto Star on October 5. April was great to give me an opportunity to contribute to her article entitled Social media gives investors a voice.
In this article, April discussed the power social media can provide to the people whereby investors considering a do-it-yourself approach or even those who pay for money management services can learn at their own pace from a host of great online forums and websites. During my interview with April for The Star, I highlighted the following stellar resources folks should consider if you haven't already done so:
Administrators Frugal Trader and Canadian Capitalist have done an amazing job managing this online free forum whereby folks can discuss a variety of personal finance and investing topics. Everything from investing in ETFs and personal money diaries to finding great deals for your cellphone, this site has it all.
Find deals of the day for apparel, entertainment, food and drink and chat communities about personal finance. This site is not only practical with loads of information at your fingertips, it's also very kind to your wallet 🙂
There are tons of great Canadian personal finance and investing blogs out there but Million Dollar Journey is one the best. FrugalTrader got serious about investing after graduating from university at age 23 and he hasn't stopped since. He has a goal to achieve net worth of least $1 million by the time he's 35 and you know what, he's getting close. Very impressive FT, no wonder you have almost 16,000 readers!
Thanks again April for the interview and stay in touch!
Lastly, before the list of quality reads, I wanted to say congratulations to Dividend Ninja for his inclusion in the November 2011 edition of MoneySense. Julie Cazzin did an excellent job profiling real folks who love tax-free savings accounts (TFSAs) and how they're leverging this account to meet their saving and retirement needs. Get More Out Of Your TFSA is a must read not only to find out what The Ninja invests in but also learn more about what TFSAs can do for you!
Alrightly, now that we've talked about bloggers going mainstream, check out the goods below before I'm back next week.
Have a safe, happy and healthy weekend!

Do you believe in magic?
This is a Harry Potter fanfiction. If you don't like it, don't read!! All of Rowlings characters belong to her (the wonder she is), and all my OC's belong to me!!
A bunch of witches and wizards from the realm of Hogwarts barge into my room at silly o'clock in the morning and expect me to believe I'm a witch. Course. And the Queen of bloody Sheba's next door.
I wake up suddenly, knowing that something, but not sure what, woke me. I hear slow footsteps on the stairs and the handle to my bedroom creak. I close my eyes, relax my face and feign sleep. There's a scuffle as the intruder trips over one of my possessions I couldn't be bothered to pick up the night before and someone whispers.
"How do you suppose we're meant to wake her up?" This voice is followed by two nearly identical ones,
"We've got some…" The first finishes and the next picks up almost in perfect time, "Puking pastilles in the bag." I hear a thump and an "Ow" as someone gets hit.
"Idiots." Another, harsher voice spits, "You can't just stick things in her mouth while she's asleep." Another boy quickly picks up on this,
"Oh look, I think you're growing soft, Malfoy." Another thump, louder this time, followed by another.
"Honestly you two, you don't want her to wake now and get this first impression, do you?" Says a girl this time, a very bossy girl, by the sounds of it. Deciding I had heard enough and wanting to know why this group of teenagers was in my room, I sit up in bed.
"Why are you here?" I say with false confidence, not wanting these people, who obviously know who I am, to know I'm scared out of my wits. Even in the dark, I feel several pairs of eyes on me. One of the boys whispers something I can't hear, and a crowd of five boys and two girls are illuminated.
I sit up very straight in bed, as dignified as possible while clutching my elephant hot water bottle and studying the people. Four of them have blazing red hair, the other girl has frizzy brown hair, not unlike my own, another boy has glasses like my mother wears and messy black hair, and the last boy has tidy white blonde hair and a serious expression. They're all grinning at me except this boy. I glare back at them. Since they all look my age, I decide I can assert my authority. Thinking quickly back to what pyjamas I'm wearing, I jump, rather than climb down the ladder of my bunk bed and stand in front of the group. To my relief, I see that I'm not the shortest os them; there's a ginger haired girl who's smaller than me. "Why are you here?" I repeat, still glaring, my arms conveniantly folded over my Tinkerbell pyjama top. The serious boy evidently decides that the others aren't going to provide me with an answer, so he pushes his way to the front (a challenge, considering the size and tidiness of my room).
"My name's Malfoy, Draco Malfoy." He says, extending a hand to me. When I ignore it, the black haired boy steps forward.
"Harry Potter" He says, also extending a hand, but dropping it quickly (and wisely) when he sees I have no intention of shaking it. "Amelia? How old are you?" He asks, quickly covering up the awkward moment.
"Fifteen. Why does that concern you?" I ask, still suspicious. He looks puzzelled as I bend my legs slightly, ready to either just out of the window behind me or to fight. One of the red haired twins sees my move, however subtle I wanted it to be.
"Petrificus totalus" Says one of them, pointing a rather unconvincing stick at me, for a split second, nothing happens, but then a bright white light shoots out the end and forces me back into the wall. I mentally shake myself and open my eyes to see me lying face up, staring at this motley crew. I try to talk, but my whole body seems to be frozen. The blonde boy and the dark haired boy are kneeling by my head, the Malfoy boy on my left, and Potter on the right. Next to Malfoy are the twins, looking at me with identical expressions, and then the small ginger girl. Next to Potter are the bushy haired girl, and another ginger next to her. The bushy haired girl speaks up,
"Amelia, please don't be afraid. My frie..." She shoots a glance at Malfoy before she continues, "My aquaintances and I want to help you. My name is Hermione, this," She gestures to the ginger boy next to her "is Ron." She nods to the ginger girl on the other side of me, "Ginny, Fred, and George, although don't worry yourself if you don't know which one is which." She says as the boys laugh. I tense my jaw, and finding I can move it again, reply,
"Why do I care about your names? What are you doing here?" Hermione takes a breath and speaks up again,
"We've come from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. We're in your year, and were told to collect you. You were meant to have recieved a letter when you were eleven, but obviously that never happened."
"The body binding spell should wear off in about 57 more seconds." Adds Malfoy, looking at a strange, but expensive looking watch. Sure enough, I clench my fists and wiggle my toes. "Just one question, and we'll explain everything else when we get to Hogwarts." He tells me. I think for a while, and prop myself onto my elbows.
"If I'm right, and where you're taking me's real, I must be a witch. My question is do my parents know?" I ask. Potter looks at the others and then turns to me.
"Your father is a wizard. He didn't want you to attend, wanted you to have a normal life, but you're not normal, and it just didn't work. Your mother knows nothing about you or your father." I look down, shocked. My father is a wizard? In all fairness, I had never felt like I fitted in, and I could do wierd things sometimes, but I'd always just assumed it was my stubborness that I wasn't ordinary.
The twins look at me, bringing me back to reality and ask as if they'd rehearsed it, "Which would you like to travel on? Flying car, or broomstick?" I blink stupidly at them, unsure if they're being serious. "Me, him, Ginny, Ron and ol' clever clogs over there will be in the car, the others will be on brooms." Either Fred or George adds, reading from my expression that I didn't believe them.
"Uh... Broom?" I say, not really sure I'll be alive at the end of the journey, but knowing that, unless this flying car is an expensive people carrier, which, judging by the state of their clothes, it wasn't, then it would have difficulty fitting me in. Realising that I'm still lying on the floor in between these people, I scramble up onto my knees and sit between Malfoy and Potter. "Can I get changed first?" I ask, noting Hermione and Malfoy looking curiously at my "Don't even Tink about it" pyjama top.
Thanks!! This is the first bit of my Harry Potter fanfic! More will be uploaded tomorow, or some other random time, and I promise you it will get funnier/better! In case you were wondering, my fic is set when all the characters are 15, so the Order of the Phoenix/Half Blood Prince. If people have died, they're alive now!!

text: As part of their investigation of Akt's role in herpes infections, the researchers took laboratory cultures of those human cell types and mixed them for 15 minutes with four different drugs known to inhibit Akt. The cells were then exposed for one hour to herpes simplex virus 2. All four drugs significantly inhibited herpes virus infection in each of the cell types. By contrast, cells not pretreated with the Akt inhibitors were readily infected on exposure to the virus."For people infected with herpes, the drug acyclovir helps prevent herpes outbreaks from recurring and lowers the risk of transmitting the infection to others," said Dr. Herold. "But some people have herpes infections that don't respond to acyclovir, and unfortunately there is no effective vaccine. So new approaches for suppressing and treating herpes infections are badly needed, and our findings indicate that inhibiting Akt should be a useful therapeutic strategy to pursue." The paper "HSV activates Akt to trigger calcium release and promote viral entry: novel candidate target for treatment and suppression" was published online by The FASEB Journal. In addition to Dr. Herold, other authors of the paper (all of them at Einstein) were lead author Natalia Cheshenko, Ph.D., Janie B. Trepanier, Ph.D., Martha Stefanidou, Niall Buckley, Pablo Gonzalez and William Jacobs, Jr., Ph.D. The research was supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health (AI-061679) and the Center for AIDS Research at Einstein and Montefiore Medical Center (AI-51519). Albert Einstein College of Medicine Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University is one of the nation's premier centers for research, medical education and clinical investigation. In 2012, Einstein received over $160 million in awards from the NIH for major research centers at Einstein in diabetes, cancer, liver disease, and AIDS, as well as other areas. Through its affiliation with Montefiore Medical Center, the University Hospital for Einstein, and six other hospital systems, the College of Medicine runs one of the largest residency and fellowship training programs in the medical and dental professions in the United States.

11. Time's Young Fugitive [III]
A hurt Zara looked up, but her eyes smiled at Aidelle's support, and at her acceptance, not hate. Zara hated herself because of what she had done, just like Aidelle hated her own actions. Their similarities delved down far more than skin-deep.
"I understand that it's hard for you, but I might lose myself. No-one could know what that feels like," Zara muttered.
Aidelle pondered at how Zara was trying to defy expectations, just like a typical teenager. Unfortunately, Zara was far from typical now. Therefore, still feeling sorry for the young girl, Aidelle strayed from rolling her eyes.
"I know."
Zara looked up suddenly, frowning as though she'd misheard. She snatched the tissue that Aidelle was daintily holding out, and dabbed at her sore eyes, thinking of things to say as a comeback. After all, she was a teenager, and the right response was vital to make an impression. A second more of thinking, and Zara realised how silly she was being; in her situation, comebacks were nothing- unless they were comebacks to another time!
"I may not have physically lost myself," Aidelle continued, "But up here, in my mind, I was lost." She tapped her right temple and smiled encouragingly. "When you came here, Zara, you brought me to life again. You are a little ray of light, despite whatever anybody from your time says. They can pull you back, they can lock you away, and they can keep you from me for another twenty-five years, but they will never stop me feeling your warmth. Your fiery heart will flame on and on and on."
Zara blushed, her spirits starting to cheer. Going back, even through memory, to the time that she wanted to forget, causing nothing but pain and heartbreak; on the other hand, hearing Aidelle's praise of what seemed to Zara as selfish own lifesaving, was much more than the reward of having time back to the way they wanted it. It was the piece of life that she had been waiting for; a reward for being herself, not who she was all expected to be. And, it seemed, the truth was made of much sweeter things.
If time never reversed, at least they would always have each other…in spirit, even if in nothing else.
Time… That reminded Zara to get back to her 'duty'. It put her mind back into the frame, reminded her why she had come there in the first place.
Zara cleared her throat, glanced anxiously at the time as it ticked on, the clock, that ticking time-bomb, and at Aidelle, an unusual, joyful and happy smile having made itself accustomed to her face.
They were both 'oh-so ready'!
"Right!" Zara stood up, and then sat back down again hastily, uncertain in all her past certainty about how to proceed. "We've got a lot to do in whatever time we have, so we'd better get a move on!"
Her optimism was vague to the point of being patronizingly annoying.
"So… We should get a move on, hopefully without touching that clock any more than necessary."
Aidelle laughed, and helped Zara back out of the kitchen chair she had collapsed into previously.
"Whatever you say, boss. But first, we'd better get you cleaned up."
Zara found herself being frog-marched up the stairs to a white pristine bathroom sink.
"Okay, but as long as it doesn't take too much time."
"Time? Oh, but don't you know? We have all the time that we want."
They both burst out laughing, as Aidelle started to run some deep, hot water and tossed a bright yellow flannel at Zara. They flicked the water teasingly at each other, and started to succumb to the fits of giggles, finding that they weren't going to stop soon.
For once, they were truly happy. It was good.

A seel of approval
"Here we are" Jacko announced hopping out of the boat "The seafoam Islands. Thy should get togged up"
"It means wear lots of layers" I answered, doing exactly that. Jacko smiled down at me and tussled my dark brown hair
"Thy's a clever lad...need a haircut though!" I ignored this and ventured into the icy caves with a pokeball in one hand, a flashlight in the other and Munchlax at my feet. Pippa stayed at the boat for some false reason. We presumed it was to avoid running in to any scary pokemon. Just to annoy her, Jacko threw a rock at the Zubat hanging from the cave ceiling. They all flew out screeching in panic, trying to fly out straight without the aid of sight. It was oddly satisfying to hear Pippa scream.
"Look here" I gasped "a lagoon" the crystal blue water rippled ever so slightly. It was an eerie silence to haunted us. Some pokemon was in this lagoon.
"Munchlax, use metronome" Munchlax's fingers allowed even more light. Suddenly, the whole lagoon was alive with frenzy as Munchlax began freezing it over. White pokemon began leeping and jumping, but all to no avail. All the pokemon were trapped under.
Jacko just made a sarcastic comment when the ice cracked and a pokemon burst out. Even Jacko was stunned. Any pokemon that powerful and determined was the pokemon for me. My pokedex revealed it was a Seel. A water-type.
"Metronome!" I ordered. Munchlax summoned a silver ball between his hands. It grew bigger before he fired it off. The Seel jumped back into the safety of the water before blasting Munchlax with a water attack.
"Lick!" I commanded, seeing Munchlax with his fat tongue out. The new attack worked and Seel was temporarily paralysed. I commanded a hopefully final Metrenome attack. Luck was on our side.
"Wing Attack?" Jacko spluttered "Munchlax doesn't have wings" He was right but the mighty gale still hit and sent Seel flying into the wall of the cave. The crystals began shaking violently, getting ready to piece Seel. I saved him. Sheilded him with a pokeball.
The crystals pierced the icy floor, setting the other trapped Seel free. My Seel was not as free, he was trapped in a pokeball. My pokeball. Seel was caught. My first capture.


text: Hoisin Chicken Noodle Wraps Recipes By Helen Schofield 27 May 2015 Wondering what to do with your leftover rotisserie chicken? Helen from Scrummylane.com has come up with this terrific 'Hoisin Chicken Noodle Wraps' recipe for you to try. Helen told HIF, "This recipe is perfect for lazy days when you have leftover rotisserie chicken that you don't know what to do with. Just shred it up and stuff it in a tortilla with rice noodles, crispy veggies, chili and hoisin sauce. Believe me when I tell you this makes a VERY tasty lunch!" Ingredients 40 grams fine rice noodles 2 tortillas a couple of handfuls of watercress, or other green salad leaves of your choice about a 10-cm piece cucumber, sliced into matchsticks about ¼ of a red pepper, thinly sliced about 2 handfuls cooked shredded chicken (leftover rotisserie chicken is great!) 2 spring onions 1 fresh red chili (optional) 2 heaped tablespoons hoisin sauce 1 lime Instructions Soak the noodles in a bowl of boiling water for about 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside. Warm the tortillas, either in a dry frying pan or in the microwave for 30 seconds. Lay the tortillas on a clean board or work surface. Lay half the watercress/salad leaves down the centre, then top with the noodles, cucumber and red pepper. Then scatter over the chicken, spring onions and chili (if using). Finally, drizzle over the hoi sin sauce and lime juice, then roll the wrap up as tightly as you can. Cut in half and enjoy immediately! Helen also told us, "I can think of lots of great things about this wrap, but the best are (in no particular order!): It's great for lunch or dinner. The rice noodles don't need any cooking, just 5 mins of soaking in boiling water. You already have your cooked chicken ready, remember, so that makes this a very quick and easy no-cook wrap! Hoisin sauce is very flavourful, as you may well know, so you only need to drizzle a heaped tablespoon or so over the ingredients in your wrap. Fiddling about with other dressings not needed! (oh, apart from a generous squeeze or two of lime juice!) The other little 'bits' you add to the wrap, as well as the chicken, noodles and hoisin sauce, can vary according to what you've got hanging about in your fridge. Enjoy!

Students arrived at the airport super early…Jaime got there at 7:30am. After checking in and saying our goodbyes we were on our way to Boston. During the flight we learned that Jordan doesn't like the take off and that Jaime is afraid of heights. They both helped each other out as you can see from this picture…I was trying not to laugh, I thought it was sweet.
Once in Boston we got a bite to eat and enjoyed some down town without ...

Bird walk by. Temperature drops. I walk back to my hotel and clean up for dinner. I look up restaurants again. Find an Italian place that has good reviews. Why not, Italian 2 times in one day. I walk down to check it out. Pretty quiet. It is, in fact, a Tuesday night. Wasn't too sure ...

Cognitive disability means:
Valid assessment considers cultural and linguistic diversity as well as differences in communication and behavioral factors
The deficits in adaptive behaviors occurs within the context of community environments typical of the individual's age peers
Specific adaptive behavior deficits often coexist with strengths in other adaptive behaviors or other personal capabilities
With appropriate supports and services over a sustained period, the life functioning of the individual with cognitive disabilities will generally improve
The IEP team may identify a child as having a cognitive disability if the child meets the criteria specified in PI 11.36 (1) (b) with regards to;
The child has a standard score of 2 or more standard deviations below the mean on a least one individually administered intelligence test developed to assess intellectual functioning.
When evaluating a child, the child has;
The child has deficits in adaptive behavior:
Assessments include interviews of the parents, tests, and observations of the child in adaptive behavior which are relevant to the child's age
Adaptive Behavior to be assessed includes;
Social skills (relevant for ages 3-21)
Self-direction (relevant for ages 6-21)
Leisure (relevant for ages 6-21)
The child is age 3 through 5 and has a standard score of 2 or more standard deviations below the mean on standardized or nationally-normed measures, as measured by comprehensive, individual assessments in at least 2 of the following areas:
Academic readiness
The child is age 6 through 21 and has a standard score of 2 or more standard deviations below the mean on standardized or nationally-normed measures, as measured by comprehensive, individual assessments, in;
And at least 2 of the following areas:
In the 1992 AAMR definition of CD, levels of
supports are used to reflect intensities of
supports and services necessary for
individuals with CD to become more
independent, productive, and integrated into
the community.
Cognitive disabilities typically manifest before age 18
The IEP team shall identify all of the following:
Modifications, if any, in regular education, such as;

Run outside and tell them to clear off
By the time you get outside, there is barely any room to move. So many screaming children have gathered that you have to carefully hop between the empty patches to avoid stamping on their arms. Not that stamping on their arms could possibly cause them any more discomfort than they already seem to be in... hmmm. You dismiss this thought as cruel.
Reaching a small clearing where you can stand safely, you try to summon their attention, but the noise of their amassed sobbing means that your shouts, claps and whistles have no effect. Your eardrums beg for mercy.
Looking up and down the road, you see 104 screaming boys to the west, and 113 screaming boys to the east.
What now?

Before they could say a word I had hared out of the door, leaving it swinging in my wake. I remembered the way now, as I hurried down the pavement, my footsteps ringing horribly loudly. The immediate area was deserted, the only cars halting at an intersection further up.
There was a sense of déjà vu as I passed a wide cobbled alley and finally made it to the gallery. The lights were still on, making the street in front glow. The pale interior was blindingly bright in comparison to the darkness outside. I grabbed the door handle and pushed it open, following a humming noise to the gift shop room.
Amber wasn't there anymore, but my mother was, humming to an unknown tune and storing the emptied cardboard boxes in the back room. She saw me and gasped.
"Oh, sorry, Ruby! I forgot, I didn't realise it was so late, but we got a new delivery, look!"
She pointed proudly at a set of beautifully framed looking glasses, hanging off the wall. They ranged from hand-mirror size to a full length one like the one in the 'Treasures' shop. In fact, I could have sworn they were almost identical; their frames were the same dark carved wood at least if the patterns weren't the same.
"Who gave you that?" I asked suspiciously, pointing to the mirror.
"They're a collection," my mother said happily, grabbing her black overlarge handbag from under the counter. "Left anonymously at the back door with a form passing possession to the gallery, for sale as the owner sees fit."
"So you're going to sell them?"
"They'll fetch a lot, they could be antiques," she replied more seriously as we walked out. I flipped off the lights before I left the room, and in the corner of my eye I thought I saw a flash of bright silver.

The next time someone tells you spoken word poets can't make poems come to life on the page, send them to Danez Smith's [insert] boy, a remarkable debut collection that puts that tired notion to bed once and for all. In these poems, Smith opens the reader to a world of desire, longing, and deep mourning that picks up where his brothers Hopkins and Whitman left off. Startling in their formal range and virtuosity, these poems interrogate the ways the body not only inhabits but actually becomes public and private space: …tonight, I am no one's pet, maybe an animal, wounded & hungry for revenge or sympathy but what's the difference? Danez Smith lays down the gauntlet for all of us to speak our deepest truths with more elegance, more ferocity, and almost more beauty than a reader can bear. —Gabrielle Calvocoressi, Apocalyptic Swing, Poetry Editor for The LA Review of Books

"Goners" – City types suffering from a Millennium-fuelled desire to "Get Out Now". Former Charles Russell solicitor Julia Bueno has a cautionary tale for those who want to give up their jobs and travel. Bueno went to India to improve her health and learn about reflexology. Following a nasty bout of projectile vomiting in Varanasi, Bueno endured a rickshaw crash, witnessed a soldier murder the rickshaw driver and was herself attacked and doused in petrol by a gang of men before being rescued by a passing Belgian management consultant. Now safely back in the UK, Bueno says: "I have lost the need to seem invincible." So we guess its back to pensions law.
Blue rinses. It seems the traditional image of the magistracy is a tad fuddy-duddy for the Lord Chancellor, who has launched a u420,000 advertising campaign to attract a more varied mix of applicants.
Self-regulation of the profession, which has come under attack from flamboyant Scottish solicitors Maria and Gordon Thomson, currently flushed with success after winning an appeal against being struck off by the Scottish Solicitors' Disciplinary Tribunal. The Law Society of Scotland must be quaking in its boots – not only do the pair famously ride Harley Davidson motorcycles and include the tougher element of Edinburgh's criminal fraternity among their clientele, but Maria is a well-known stage hypnotist.

On the Irish Waterfront: The Crusader, the Movie, and the Soul of the Port of New Yorkby James T. Fisher
Site of the world's busiest and most lucrative harbor throughout the first half of the twentieth century, the Port of New York was also the historic preserve of Irish American gangsters, politicians, longshoremen's union leaders, and powerful Roman Catholic pastors. This is the demimonde depicted to stunning effect in Elia Kazan's On the Waterfront (1954)/b>
Site of the world's busiest and most lucrative harbor throughout the first half of the twentieth century, the Port of New York was also the historic preserve of Irish American gangsters, politicians, longshoremen's union leaders, and powerful Roman Catholic pastors. This is the demimonde depicted to stunning effect in Elia Kazan's On the Waterfront (1954) and into which James T. Fisher takes readers in this remarkable and engaging historical account of the classic film's backstory.
Fisher introduces readers to the real "Father Pete Barry" featured in On the Waterfront, John M. "Pete" Corridan, a crusading priest committed to winning union democracy and social justice for the port's dockworkers and their families. A Jesuit labor school instructor, not a parish priest, Corridan was on but not of Manhattan's West Side Irish waterfront. His ferocious advocacy was resisted by the very men he sought to rescue from the violence and criminality that rendered the port "a jungle, an outlaw frontier," in the words of investigative reporter Malcolm Johnson.
Driven off the waterfront, Corridan forged creative and spiritual alliances with men like Johnson and Budd Schulberg, the screenwriter who worked with Corridan for five years to turn Johnson's Pulitzer Prize-winning 1948 newspaper exposé into a movie. Fisher's detailed account of the waterfront priest's central role in the film's creation challenges standard views of the film as a post facto justification for Kazan and Schulberg's testimony as ex-communists before the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
On the Irish Waterfront is also a detailed social history of the New York/New Jersey waterfront, from the rise of Irish American entrepreneurs and political bosses during the World War I era to the mid-1950s, when the emergence of a revolutionary new mode of cargo-shipping signaled a radical reorganization of the port. This book explores the conflicts experienced and accommodations made by an insular Irish-Catholic community forced to adapt its economic, political, and religious lives to powerful forces of change both local and global in scope.
Editorial Reviews
Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
"Amply fills in the gaps among organized crime, public officials and the street priests and Catholic hierarchy. . . also provides new insights into the long-debated claim that the film was intended by its screenwriter, Budd Schulberg, and its director, Elia Kazan, as a justification for their naming names of former Communist associates in their testimony before the House Un-American Activities Committee. He also clarifies the context of the famous utterance of Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City: 'I am the law.' It turns out Mayor Hague was not flaunting his legendary power (he did not have to). He was intervening to get jobs for two truants rather than complying with legalities by sending them back to school.Sam Roberts, New York Times, 29 January 2010
"Fisher has spent more than a decade studying the culture, history and soul of the docks and piers that once lined the West Side of Manhattan and the riverfront of Jersey City and Hoboken. He also has researched the making of the film and the controversies it touched off long before it appeared in theaters in 1954. As a result, Fisher probably knows more about the waterfront than any living person who has notas I assume he hasn't, although one never knowsstood in line at a shape-up. Fisher has poured all that knowledge into a glorious book that ought to change how movie critics view Schulberg's cinematic creation and how cultural historians interpret working-class culture in New York and New Jersey during the middle years of the 20th century."Terry Golway, America, 2 November 2009
"Fisher captures with great clarity and encyclopedic detail the multilayered and fascinating history of the New York–New Jersey waterfront depicted in Elia Kazan's Oscar-winning 1954 film, On the Waterfront. Fisher's impeccable research delves into the real-life stories behind the characters, particularly Pete Corridan, the crusading Catholic priest who tried to reform the longshoremen's union and the recently deceased Budd Schulberg, who adapted Malcolm Johnson's 1949 Pulitzer Prize-winning 'Crime on the Waterfront' newspaper series for the screen. Fisher considers every angle of the story astutely and meticulously, setting it well in its mid-20th-century American context. This engaging narrative is essential reading for both labor historians and cinema buffs, plus anyone studying the waterfront, working-class and immigrant history, anticommunism, blacklisting, and the House Un-American Activities Committee."Library Journal, 1 October 2009
"For anyone who has ever been moved by Marlon Brando delivering the immortal line, 'I coulda been a contender,' this book is a must. Through state-of-the-art research, James T. Fisher recreates the tough, corrupt universe of the waterfront, a huge commercial and criminal bounty where careers were built, noses broken, dissenters murdered, riches gained and lostand it all became the basis for one of the most cherished American movies of all time. On the Irish Waterfront is a major act of historical restoration and a fascinating yarn told by a skilled literary maestro."T. J. English, New York Times bestselling author of Paddy Whacked, The Westies, and Havana Nocturne
"James T. Fisher's On the Irish Waterfront gives a richly detailed portrait of the world of the New York Harbor within which lived the real people behind the characters in Elia Kazan's great film, especially the dynamic and charismatic priest Father Pete Corridan, whose efforts on behalf of the longshoremen won him the enmity of both the mobsters and many within the Church itself. Deeply researched and wonderfully written, On the Irish Waterfront brings to vivid life a tumultuous era in American labor history that itself brought into being one of our greatest films."Leo Braudy, University Professor and Bing Professor of English and American Literature, University of Southern California, author of From Chivalry to Terrorism and The World in a Frame
"With a subject as deep and as dark as the harbor, in a voice as colorful and as lively as his characters, James T. Fisher weaves a remarkable tale of saints and sinnersof Jesuits and gangsters, longshoremen and waterfront chieftans, not to mention Hollywood's elite. His readers will never look at the Hudson River piers in quite the same way again."Helene Stapinski, author of Five-Finger Discount
"James T. Fisher penetrates the code of silence that characterized the Irish culture of New York's waterfront, bringing to life the violent world of longshoremen, crooked unionists, politicians and businessmen, crusading writers, and Catholic clerics fighting over control of the nation's busiest port and what moral code it would live by. He brilliantly reconstructs the story behind On the Waterfront and the actual events on which that great film was based."Joshua B. Freeman, The Graduate Center, City University of New York, author of Working-Class New York and In Transit
"What a story: Religion, politics, ethnicity, labor, and a classic film. By giving a deep reading to this rich cultural mix, James T. Fisher reveals much about urban life and social change in twentieth-century America."James M. O'Toole, Clough Professor of History, Boston College, author of Passing for White and editor of Habits of Devotion
"James T. Fisher's treatment of the 'Spiritual Front' that brought the Irish Catholic priest Father John Corridan and the Jewish writer Budd Schulberg together in a common crusade for justiceand of their triumph, not on the waterfront, but on the silver screenis scintillating. Fisher is a good writer and a very fine historianintellectually sophisticated, indefatigable, wonderfully sensitive to human drama and foibles. On the Irish Waterfront covers an amazing amount of terrain. Urban, cultural, intellectual, and labor history all fall within Fisher's purview and magnify the importance of his work."Bruce Nelson, Dartmouth College, author of Workers on the Waterfront and Divided We Stand

Another great stay at this remote campground. We stayed 3 months and enjoyed every minute. Campers are free to keep boats and ATVs at their campsite at no extra charge. The owners are fantastic people that will do whatever is necessary to make your stay right. This is our summer campground. - nascaron

We camped at Christian's Campground in Pelican Lake, Wisconsin on a monthly basis with a very reasonable rate. We found the campground to be very quiet. Mostly seasonal campers with some weekend campers. During the week we were basically alone in the campground. The sites are big enough that we were able to put our 38 foot fifth wheel in sideways, with a lot of space on both sides, so our door faced the woods. All sites have full hookups with 50 Amp service. There is a pavilion, playground, and sand volleyball court available. All campers are allowed to store boats, ATVs, etc, on their sites at no extra charge. Pelican Lake is within a mile drive and an ATV trail comes right to the campground. The campground has a few piers on the lake for your boat and fishing use. We will be back next year. - nascaron

Nice quiet campground. Friendly staff. The upper campground is in a traditional wooded setting. The lower campground sites are close together but convenient if you have a boat. A water filter is recommended because of the high iron content in the water. There is a quiet road between the lower campground and the lake front. Very nice lake. Nice boat dock. Small beach. Good dock fishing. There is a dump station. Some seasonal campers. There is a bar on-site. Great food in the area. We stayed in the lower campground with our 35' rig and had plenty of room. We would stay here again. - Rudedude
Oct 2007 - $22.00
We arrived on October 5th knowing that the campground would turn off the water two days later. This is common during this time of the year. There are upper and lower areas in the campground. We were in the lower area which is across the street from the lake. Since the hookups were on the opposite side, we had to use an extension cord for the electric hookup. There are no pull-through sites in the lower area; however, we did not have any problems backing in our big rig. The campground was not crowded and very quiet during this time of the year. Visit their website; it provides photos and detailed information about the campsites. We would camp here again. - tumbleweeds

We have stayed at this park many times and have always enjoy our stay. In the spring we use the group site for a family camping weekend. This site works awesome for our group of about 8 campers. Can put them in a circle. It has a small shelter and your own clean pit toilets. No electricity on the group sites. We have used their regular sites with electricity and they are nice. They now have some sites that are reserveable otherwise it is first come first serve. Our only problem is getting a hold of them. No one ever answers the phone and it takes forever for them to call you back if they do. - Bailey222

Beautiful heavily-wooded park in the WI north woods, located on Jack lake, about 12 miles north of Antigo. Access roads are paved. Very curvy and somewhat difficult to maneuver into sites with a large rig. Jack lake allows only electric trolling motors, so it's very quiet. Great fishing. Camping is 1st come/1st serve. Pets are welcome in the campground, but not in the adjoining park. New bath/shower house with pay showers. Electric only RV sites. Water is available at entry, as is sewer dump, which costs $5.00 for registered guests. Many miles of hiking/biking trails, which joint up to WI Ice Age Trail.

We stayed here four nights when attending the Rhinelander School of the Arts. We didn't really like the campground, but it was close to Rhinelander and convenient for the workshops. The host was friendly.
There are two shower houses. The remote shower house was dirty and all of the knobs on the showers had been removed. The only shower in the campground that worked was in the basement of the main office. Fortunately, we had full hookups and used our own shower instead.
The roads are tight, dusty, and rough. Our site was challenging to get into with a 28 foot trailer and was very uneven. We had to use nearly three boxes of leveling blocks to get the trailer level side to side. The trees are very dense which makes parking challenging, but then there is lots of nice shade which was a fair trade-off.
We would not normally stay at a campground like this one, but it was the best option in the area to attend the workshops. We may look around more before next year's workshops. - User3641

This park was no problem for our 37' fifth wheel and Dodge 3500 DRW tow vehicle. Yes, the roads are very narrow, but it's possible if you take your time and are careful. Many of the sites will accommodate a 40' or larger motorhome. I suppose "friendly" is a bit of a stretch, but you can make it work. Wonderful wooded sites give a feel of seclusion and separation from your neighbor. Pool is great. There is lake access, but no pier or anything to ease swimming. Bath house was clean, but deteriorated. Water pressure was extremely low. Manager and staff was very friendly. - Phil Hyde

We drove into this campground early in the season to check it out. We live about 20 miles away and were looking for a place to stay for a weekend, some place new. We have a 31 foot camper and there was only about 2 sites that would have accommodated us. Even if we would have been able to get into the sites (there isn't much room for trying to back in to the sites) there would have been no room for any other activities as our camper with our slides would have taken up the entire site. We stopped to check out the playground for our young children, which was okay, nothing spectacular. We then stopped at the bathrooms and went in to see how clean they were. This often tells a lot about how a campground is kept up. It was filthy dirty and disgusting. On our way out of the bathroom a women, whom we assumed was a staff member, drove up in an old van and asked if we were camping here. We replied, "No, just checking it out" She replied with a very snotty, "This isn't a public restroom, get out!" We then told her we didn't use the restroom and she sped off shaking her head. Wow! We would not return here even if we could fit our camper. She was very rude so we will take our business elsewhere. I'd advise that you do the same! - mihalko05

This is a nice public owned park on a large lake with boating and swimming. The interior roads are paved, with gravel and grass sites. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is only electric hookups and a dump station. This is a popular park and no reservations are taken. The road to the park is a 2 lane country road and there are spots where care has to be taken as trees are close to or overhanging a bit on the roadway. It is about 3 miles south of town. I marked it down for the general lack of facilities, not the facilities or cleanliness or care of the facilities they have. We would stay here again. - nmmotorhome

We spent 30 days camping at Hiles Pine Lake Campground. The owners are next to none! They are extremely pleasant, hospitable and helpful. We spent most every day fishing for bluegill and crappie (we even caught some bass and perch). The site was level with full hookups (even a portable sewer container so I could dump without moving my travel trailer). The restrooms and showers were clean. The campground was very quiet and well maintained. Would definitely stay there again! - RTW

Nice place to spend a couple of nights. During the week, only two other campers in the campground: was nice and quiet. No big issue, but after staying in six other campgrounds, this one was the only one that had pay showers, assuming to save money. (But yet the men's urinal ran 24/7?)
Very friendly and courteous staff. - otdrnt

.We called this park after showing up at another nearby park at which we had reservations and discovering that they were under a county boil order for contaminated water. We were therefore delighted when the nice lady we got on the phone at Northforest told us to come on in!
They had a very nice playground for kids, shuffleboard, tennis courts, mini golf, and a nice beach. We were in a pleasant area with forest and a lake - the campground was nice and quiet. - Starxd

The campground is far off the beaten track. The road to it is gravel and almost a mile from the "main" road.
There were a lot of seasonal campers there. Great CG for families; playground, swimming, miniature golf, and a sort of hayride.
Sites are mostly grass. The sites they use for transients are mostly on the ends.
Wi-fi was okay. Cell reception was acceptable. Satellite depends on your site due to trees.
My main issue with the CG was the electric. There was a single box for 2 sites, both 30 amp. My neighbor for the one night I was there was in a Class A. The circuit breaker for the box (a couple of sites away) kept blowing. The manager showed us where it was and I reset it a couple of times, the breaker was Hot to the touch. Not a very good set-up. There were no sewer hook-ups in the transient area and they charge $7 to dump. - jnateg

This was a very sad little campground, about three miles outside of Three Lakes. New owners since April 2010. Mostly permanents with about six sites available to nightly. A lot of older trailers as permanents. The park is just across the road from a pretty little lake and they have an access for residents. Our site was a pad that was just exactly as wide and long as our rig (33') with a steep incline at the front making it impossible to pull thru, although it was advertised as a pull thru. No sewer hook ups and the dump site, once we drove all thru the park in order to come in on the proper side, was actually lower than our rig and so we had to jack up the fiver in order to dump. Even that was not very successful. No laundry facilities at the campground and the public restrooms looked very questionable. We would not return to this campground. - shovelguy

The $1,000 annual scholarship, named in honor of John Heydel, center, and his wife Drenda, is available to first and second year students enrolled in the Respiratory Therapy program at Piedmont Technical College. Heydel, a former respiratory therapist, is the retired Self Regional Healthcare President and CEO.
Engineering was always the dream career for Evan Amaya. He just never planned to teach it.
"I never thought I would ever teach in a million years," Amaya said. "It's not something that I ever considered doing."
Scholarships were presented to students and donors were recognized at the recent scholarship luncheon.
Recent graduates of Piedmont Technical College's associate degree nursing program at the Lex Walters Campus were recognized in a pinning ceremony in May.
Clay Sprouse, pharmacy technology program director at Piedmont Technical College, has been named the 2015 South Carolina Society of Health-System Pharmacists (SCSHP) Pharmacy Technician of the Year.
"This is a tremendous honor to be recognized by your peers from across the state," Sprouse said.
The students in the Honors Program at Piedmont Technical College are living La Pura Vida – the pure life.
Thirteen students and five faculty members traveled to Costa Rica during spring break to broaden their horizons, learn about other cultures and provide community service. The trip was one of the enrichment opportunities available for students in the program.
"This was an experience you don't get often in a lifetime," said Toby Boster, an associate in arts student from Newberry. "You get the educational experience and the cultural exposure."
Two Piedmont Technical College students were recently among those named to the Phi Theta Kappa South Carolina All-State Academic Team. Malaurie Hullings of Plum Branch and Kenneth Washington of Hodges were among the 29 students honored at a ceremony in Columbia.
Hullings and Washington are joining an elite group. Less than one percent of America's six million two-year college students have distinguished themselves with this superior level of academic achievement and service to their colleges and communities.
At Piedmont Technical College's recent spring commencement exercises, outstanding students from each of the college's seven supporting counties were honored for academic achievement.
Four Piedmont Technical College students recently attended the Phi Beta Lambda State Leadership Conference in Charleston.

Indians cruise on senior night
With three seniors walking across the gym, arm-in-arm with their parents, the Manhattan Indians had the chance to celebrate.
Just minutes before, they eased past last-place Highland Park 65-33 in the team's home finale, 65-33, while getting the chance to play most of their bench for extended minutes.
Manhattan coach Scott Mall is happy for his players, especially his seniors, but he knows if his team is going to celebrate a league title or a top seed at sub-state, it needs to bring its "A-game" next week. Manhattan will make a trip to Hayden and Seaman to cap the regular season, both of which are in a three-way tie atop the Centennial League standings with 9-2 league records after Friday night's games.
"I think we're ready for it," Mall said. "I told the girls, 'this is what we've been building for.' Next week is like our pre-sub-state week. These are important games, against good teams and there's something on the line for both league honors and sub-state seeding. So this is a good step for us.
"We've been preparing for this and now we're ready to step up and play our best basketball."
Manhattan started all three of its seniors on senior night, including Elayna Spilker, who hadn't taken to the hardwood for the Indians in a month. Joining her were Kristen Thompson and Katie Proctor, who have battled their share of injuries in the past while taking on unfamiliar roles this year.
"They're both mild-mannered girls, so for them to step up and assume leadership roles like they have is really something," Mall said. "Because they've almost had to step out of character to be vocal leaders in practice, and they've done it. Both of them have dealt with injuries, Katie had knee surgery last summer which really put her behind, but she kept at it, working hard in practice. And Kristen over the last two-plus years has had more injuries - painful injuries - and she keeps fighting and gives us a presence on the floor that helps us win."
The game itself was mostly a one-sided affair, with Manhattan staking a big halftime lead and watching a group of mostly JV players add to it in the final two quarters.
Manhattan had perhaps its most balanced scoring effort of the year, with no player in double figures and 13 girls scoring at least a point. Mall was pleased his team got the chance to rest its regulars while giving the younger players a chance to see some varsity time.
"I think every one of our girls had a chance to score," Mall said. "We missed some late, but our girls off the bench got a lot of chances. It's nice they all got to play. It was hard to get them all in there because we had 16 girls suited up."
The Indians won the battle on the boards 45-22, which was tough to do with the Scots throwing up shots without much notice. Mall said limiting the Scots to just one shot was key for his team.
"It makes it harder to rebound, because you're not ready to rebound and all of the sudden there's a shot, and with the shots they take, you don't know whether the rebound will go long or if it'll barely touch the rim and come down short," he said. "So you have to really be alert and want the ball. I thought it took us a while to get the hang of it, but then we did a pretty good job of it."
Manhattan (14-4, 8-3 Centennial) faced little resistance in building a double-digit lead, despite going to the bench in the first quarter. Manhattan led 14-3 after the first five minutes before Highland Park hit a trio of 3-pointers to make it 20-11. But the Indians outscored the Scots 18-2 in the second quarter to get to the locker room with a 36-13 halftime lead.
The Indians led 50-20 after three quarters before handing the game to a complete squad of JV players.
Highland Park (3-15, 1-10) never got much of an offense going, knocking down the occasional off-balance jumper while getting 13 points from Destini Gillian, who finished the night 4 of 6 from beyond the arc, despite several bank shots.
The Indians had just eight turnovers on the night as they welcomed back Spilker, who was scheduled just to make a token appearance on senior night but felt good enough to play for several short stretches, scoring seven points on 3 of 6 shooting. Mall is hoping to have Spilker next week for a pair of tougher games, but said her status remains a game-time decision.
With no more easy games left on the regular-season schedule, Mall hopes his team can buckle down and win a pair of tough games to claim the top seed at sub-state. With Wichita Heights falling on Friday, Manhattan controls its own destiny the rest of the way, though Washburn Rural and Heights are both just one game back.
"In our sub-state, there's not any really weak team, but the No. 8 team is probably going to be the weakest, so that's who you want to play," Mall said. "If you could get the one-seed and put Washburn Rural and Wichita Heights in the other bracket, there's still tough teams to beat, but at least they aren't teams that typically go on.
"But I like our chances no matter where we end up."
Win two games next week, and Manhattan's seniors can celebrate more than just the final home game of the season. Mall said he's proud of his team even for getting this far.
"These seniors definitely earned it," he said. "They've been great leaders this year. We wouldn't have gotten where we are if they hadn't stepped up right from the beginning."

Hi all,
I am IncogniPIPS, the name says it all I like to be in the background observing from a distance but strangely I have a very sociable personality. I am super new to trading, fact only about a month into it and still feel lost most of the time. Outside of learning how to trade, I enjoy running and I hope to blend my discipline and patient I have in the sport with trading. I've ran across this site a few times in my search of skepticism, but after digging in deeper I noticed there were a lot of valuable information that can help get me started. Currently I'm still in grade school and I am struggling to analyze charts, and identify my method of trading. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I rather envy you, I think. I'm the exact opposite: I like to be in the foreground observing close-up but strangely I have a fairly anti-social personality.
Good luck. There are many people here who are willing to help (though I think it's probably fair to say that "struggling to analyze charts" is more or less a continuing process, albeit one of which the outcomes tend gradually to improve with increasing familiarization); specific questions usually attract a range of answers, including some helpful ones. And welcome to the forum.
I am pevit2 Peter Viiting and from Denmark, sometimes Sweden,
I have not really any experience with trading. Some attempts. But as I do consider our economy a general ecological disaster I have been somewhat reluctant to follow through.
Finally I realise, that if I should be motivated to hang around for a considerable time, some income without all the usual constraints is imperative.
I live in a half open shack in the back of a friends garden, with some small dogs and some hens.
I collect most of our food by occasional dumpster diving. In this part of the world the supermarkets really dump a huge amount of useful food and other stuff. It is really disgusting. But at least the animals love the big variation of their food. The wind blows a bit and it is fairly mild for the season.
Hello to All respected members of the forum
I am sabyous live in Perth Australia. By profession I am a senior Banker but know nothing about forex trading as It is entirely different from my core field of general banking and credit. So I am also super new and start learning.This is huge platform for beginners. Hopefully I will make here new friends and at the same time will get valuable information.
Am Colisile from Swaziland.. Am new here still at school. Any help will be appreciated.
Hello everyone. Another newbie here excited to start my journey in this industry. The road is a long way to go and I do not know what to expect So far been reading a lot and absorbing things slowly one at a time, not going to overload my brain too much now. Looking forward to meeting new friends here and acquiring more knowledge. Have a good one folks! Cheers
Hi its dinamok here, i trade for 2 years with Elliott waves, still learning. Im from eastern europe, but i dont live in my country since was a baby... but im still on east
lets make some pips
Hi all my name is Santosh i am trading in demo ac from last 1.5 years with multiple accounts, They are free :P .Made some super profits from first day 4000$ in single day of ac of $10000 next few days some more profit. And day comes, one day full ac burnet.
Ok then trading is not just about profits its about skills money management and mainly emotional management. Market doesn't have any emotions so one has to leave their emotions also it works better that way.
Rest Technical learn from here. Practice more and control.
Good luck to all
Hello, I am new to the forex trading market. I remember once, when i was a teenager i came across this website, and now 5 years later i wanted to try again. I come with an open mind set to encounter and to learn.

The Guardians.
Well, the Guardian's are a race of beings that are there to protect four humans that have been born to rid the world of evil spirits. This is the story of Adam, one of those four and Evelyn, his Guardian.
My life is not easy.
I have a duty to perform, to my people and to the human race. There are a select number of humans who are destined for greatness. These humans must do what it is they were chosen for; they must restore peace to the world. In order to do this they must be kept from harm at all times, no matter where they are or what they are doing.
There is a world, not far from your own, where a race once lived in happiness. They were carefree once upon a time; your world was also peaceful at this time, thousands of years ago. However, war is rife in your world and has been for many, many years ago, and that causes this race intense anxiety and pain, for they are designed for one purpose. Their purpose is to maintain peace on earth. Through no fault of their own, this race is unable to fulfil their duty as peacemakers. They have chosen four humans on earth to assist them in restoring peace, for they cannot do it alone. These four humans are unaware of being chosen, and they do not know that their lives must not end before it is their time. Because of this, each of them has been assigned a protector to ensure that, however reckless they may be, they do not die. I am one of these protectors. I must keep my human safe at all costs, to allow my race to save the earth, and to protect the minds of my people. We must protect them.
We are the Guardians.
