Did You Know?
Domination may sound like something that's achieved by military force. The total domination of Europe, for example, has never been achieved: The Roman empire could never fully dominate the northern Germanic tribes; Napoleon couldn't conquer Spain; and although Adolf Hitler was briefly dominant over most of the continent, he never managed to overpower England. But the word's earliest appearances don't necessarily involve physical force; Chaucer, for instance, speaks of a mind's domination by strong drink. So we may observe that a great tennis player has continued his domination of the world's courts this season, or that the domination of popular music by rock and roll was obvious by the end of the 1950s.

Amending our privacy policy to comply with EU "Cookie Law"
In November 2009 the EU Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive was modified to regulate the use of cookies and local browser storage. Before the amendment, a website had to allow you to opt-out of cookies, and this was usually performed by the browser manufacturers. The new directive stated that users should be asked to opt in to cookie usage BEFORE they are placed on a computer. The directive will become UK law on May 26 2012 – just one month away.
The new law has been widely derided by anyone who knows anything about web technology. The EU were trying to protect privacy, particularly from cross domain tracking which allows an organisation to collect large quantities of data on people and use that data for commercial purposes. However the vast majority of cookies are used in very simple ways – for example a cookie (which is basically a text file) might just contain your username and password to help you log in to a website, or it might contain some preferences that you have set so that your favourite website is shown using the particular layout that you like.
The law is, however, the law. Here at Buyometric we have been looking at our use of cookies and thinking about ways that we can either reduce their usage or explain them more clearly. The first step in this process is to amend our privacy policy to include a table of the cookies we use and explain what they do.
A good example is our auto-login cookies log_u and log_p. Like many websites, we give people the option to "remember me" when logging in. When you do this, we set a cookie on your computer that contains your email address (log_u) and encrypted password (log_p). When you revisit our website we check for this cookie and use the data to log you in. Only our software can decode your password, so it is safe from preying eyes!
Over the coming weeks we will be thinking about how we can make the setting of cookies more explicit throughout our site, in a way that doesn't inhibit the user experience. It's quite a challenge.

2006 Team Performance
This team didn't exist in '06, though its planning has been underway for more than two years. Toyota's much-ballyhooed entry into Nextel Cup racing has ramped up from Craftsman Trucks and Grand-Am Cup Sports Touring since 2004, and in '06, Toyota won the manufacturer's championship in the trucks series, capturing 12 of 25 events, and was the make of choice for '06 champ Todd Bodine. The main question throughout '06 was: which drivers would Toyota lure to its new teams?
2007 Team Outlook
Michael Waltrip's new Toyota venture went the geezer route, signing himself, Dale Jarrett and 36-year-old rookie David Reutimann. Team Red Bull, on the other hand, chose a more developmental path, focusing on a 23-year-old (Brian Vickers) and a 25-year-old (A.J. Allmendinger). Vickers saw the writing on the wall at Hendrick Motorsports last year, and signed his deal with TRB in late June; Allmendinger parlayed a tumultuous but ultimately successful '06 on the open-wheel Champ Car World Series into a late-season Craftsman Truck ride with Bill Davis Racing, and then an October contract with the boys from Red Bull. There's no question this is one of the best-financed new teams ever to hit Nextel Cup racing, and a lot is expected of this duo right away. Vickers, in particular, has three full years of big-league stock car experience, and won his first race at Talladega last fall. Allmendinger will surely have a tougher row to hoe, considering he's never experienced a Nextel Cup race behind the wheel. He's a really good road-course guy, though, so that'll be something to watch. Of 2007's new teams (and there are at least six), Team Red Bull smells most like a competitive group right out of the gate.
83 - Brian Vickers
Wins: 1
Best Finish: 1st
Poles, Top-fives, top-10s, DNFs: 1, 5, 9, 2

When El Hadji Diouf gets on the ball at Elland Road tomorrow tonight and runs at the Southampton defence he will not just expect to be booed by the opposing fans, he will relish the prospect.
"I like being booed," he says with a gold-toothed smile. "When people boo me I always want to show them I am the best – I know they hate me but I want to say, 'You can hate me but you can love my football.' Everyone wants to beats Leeds because they know it is a big team, and there is a big character on the team: myself."
For the Senegalese to be ignored is far worse than being disliked. There is a touch of Oscar Wilde when he says of himself: "My reputation is not me, but it is good to have a reputation. People talking good or bad about you is only publicity."
It was not always thus. Having come to prominence in the 2002 World Cup Diouf had an indifferent spell at Liverpool, attracting unsavoury publicity, including a conviction for spitting. By the time he was playing for Bolton Wanderers the constant baiting by opposition fans was beginning to wear him down. Then came an intervention from the late Gary Speed, Wanderers' senior pro.
"One day I was asking, 'Why do people boo me every time? I don't understand.' He came to see me, took my hand and said, 'People never boo a bad player. They boo you because you are good and they try and wind you up.' When he said that I understood. Coming from him it was good."
Diouf now plays for Leeds United, where Speed is still revered for his role in their last title success, in 1992, and we are talking in the office of manager Neil Warnock. The same Warnock who, in January 2010, described Diouf as "lower than a sewer rat" after Diouf had accused Jamie Mackie of QPR, then managed by Warnock, of faking his agony as Mackie lay stricken at Ewood Park with a broken leg. The subsequent union of Warnock and the player he calls his "matador" raised many eyebrows.
"Me and the gaffer, it is in the past," said Diouf. "Lots of people say there are things between us, but the most important thing today is he enjoys working with me and I enjoy working with him. What I like of him we have the same temperament, we want to always win. He is a bad loser and a good gaffer. We are the misunderstood, a lot of people do not know us, but they judge us.
"Friends who play with him before, like Adel Taarabt and Armand Traoré, they tell me he is a good gaffer, he loves joking and working hard. So I say to him, 'Why not I come and play for Leeds?' I know he thought it was a joke at first but that joke came true. People can hate you, but recognise your talent. He recognised my talent."
Diouf was poised to go to Saudi Arabia when Warnock, searching for players within a limited budget, decided to see if Diouf was serious. The money on offer was a fraction of that available in the desert, and Diouf would have to start on a week-to-week trial basis.
"I said, 'Why not?' The big challenge today is to be in Leeds. I remember playing here with Liverpool [Diouf's fifth start in England, Liverpool winning in front of more than 40,000]. The atmosphere was unbelievable. I say to the lads: 'We can do it. We can be part of the story of Leeds United. People talk about Lucas Radebe, Eric Cantona, why not us?' To go up with Leeds would be massive, the biggest thing in my career.
"Elland Road has the same atmosphere as Anfield. A lot of teams in the Premier League do not have as exciting a stadium as we have. Leeds has a Premier League stadium and Premier League fans in the wrong division, we have to change that. I think we can do it this season, We just need to believe in ourselves, he [Warnock] won promotion with Sheffield United and QPR, why not here?"
A lack of funds is the most likely reason, with takeover negotiations with various parties now having taken more than six months. Having reached the play-off places early on this season Leeds have dipped, with two points from their last three matches, but the 2-1 home victory over Everton in the last round of the Capital One Cup showed what was possible.
Diouf was outstanding in that match and has generally been in excellent form. His current contract, however, expires in January and while Leeds have offered him a new one with a significant pay rise he will only say, when asked if he will stay, "We'll see." It may depend on whether Warnock will by then have the cash required to give Leeds a realistic chance of going up. "Me and the gaffer have the same ambition: to go into the Premier League," said Diouf.
There he would face again Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher, former Liverpool team-mates who both criticised Diouf in their autobiographies, prompting withering replies, articulated again in L'Equipe earlier this month.
"I don't want to waste any more time talking about them," says Diouf. "Liverpool is a great club but for me it is in the past, I am looking to the future. When I was at Liverpool we had good players, but we did not make a team. We had a lot of problems there between foreign players and the rest, but I think that goes for many teams."
It was at Liverpool that Diouf was involved in the first of several spitting controversies. "I regret what I did in the past," he said. "I was young, I don't do it any more. I apologise to all people I have hurt. It was a result of my background."
Diouf's upbringing was a difficult one, living in poverty with his grandparents after his father left when he was eight, then moving to France to make his way as a footballer at 14. "It made me independent. I was always looking after myself, then after all my family too. I'm proud about that, and about the charity I have, helping a lot of people in Senegal."
Despite the animosity he attracts, Diouf enjoys playing in England, having spent the last 11 seasons here excepting a brief spell at Rangers. "I have had offers to go to Spain, back to France or Italy, but it is more exciting here. If you play 15 years in football and you don't play in England it is a big miss."
In the long-term Diouf expresses an interest in coaching and managing, which could be interesting, and there is a book on the horizon: the title … "Misunderstood".
He said: "People think they know me, then after meeting in a restaurant, or out somewhere, they talk for five minutes and say, 'I'm sorry I thought bad things about you before.' Even my wife. I went to talk to her and she didn't want to be with me because of what she had read about me in the papers in Senegal and what people say about me, but I am a different person. My reputation is not me."Reuse content

STOCKHOLM (AP) Asafa Powell's injury may have delayed the race of the season but Usain Bolt and Tyson Gay said on Thursday that they still expect a fast 100 meters race at Friday's Diamond League meet in Stockholm.
The three fastest men in the world were due to face each other for the first time this year at the DN Galan, but Powell withdrew on Wednesday evening after failing to shake off a lower-back injury.
"It's sad because I think people were really looking forward to the three of us (racing)," Bolt said. "But it's still going to be a quick time."
Bolt said that in the absence of Powell, he is still wary of the threat that Gay poses.
"In Jamaica a lot of people have been seeing me and saying 'you can't let Tyson beat you,'" Bolt said.
Powell said that he had been looking forward to facing his close rivals again. The Jamaican said that he sustained the injury three weeks ago, and is unsure when he will be able to compete again next.
"Since the start of the year, this was the race that I've been looking out for," Powell said. "I've been very excited about it, so I'm very disappointed because I want to go out there and run against Usain and Tyson."
Gay said that he had mentally prepared himself to face both of the Jamaicans in the 100 final at the ancient Olympic stadium.
"It put a little dampener on it, but it's just as big a race," Gay said. "I know I'm going to need to run my best to even be in the camera shot."
Olympic champion Bolt and Powell share this season's best time of 9.82 seconds.
Bolt set the current world record of 9.58 the last time the three met on the track, at the World Championships in Berlin last August.
As well as his performances, Bolt's reputation as a showman has made him a huge draw in the Scandinavian capital. Hundreds of fans waited for hours at a city park to catch a glimpse of the Jamaican when he signed autographs for local children at an athletics clinic on Wednesday.
The big three's faces adorn the event T-shirts on sale in the city, inevitably overshadowing many of the other matchups, in what is the 11th meeting of the Diamond League's inaugural season.
European champion Blanka Vlasic of Croatia faces silver medalist Emma Green of Sweden and American Chaunte Howard-Lowe in the women's high jump.
Howard-Lowe is also going to do one long jump prior to the high jump competition, to try to reach her ambition of being the only woman to jump both 2 meters in the high jump and 7 meters in the long jump.
In the high jump, Howard-Lowe said she expects fierce competition from Green.
"I think it's great for the meet that the hometown girl really has a shot at taking this thing," Howard-Lowe said.
The women's long jump is likely to be closely fought, with the three medalists from the recent European championship competing. The champion, Ineta Radevica of Latvia, and Portugal's Naide Gomes both jumped 6 meters 92 in Barcelona. Bronze medalist Olga Kucherenko's jump of 7.13 is the season's best.
Brittney Reese, the world champion, also jumps, as does the former Olympic heptathlon and home-crowd favorite, Carolina Kluft of Sweden.
The shotput competition will take place separately from the other events for the third straight year on Thursday at the Kungstradgarden, or "King's Garden," adjacent to the Royal Castle. The dominant American Christian Cantwell headlines.

I Lit The MatchMature
Sep didn't ask any questions, he guided her to the bathroom and sat her on the laundry basket while he ran the taps, steam rolling off the water as it swirled into the corners of the tub. He held her hand so gently, smiling as he helped her step into the bath, like a lord helping a lady out of a carriage. Sitting there watching her submerged limbs turn pink, Christina sat placidly as Sep dribbled water over her shoulders and neck, the crusty, rust coloured symbols flaking away bit by bit and dissolving in the hot water.
As they disappeared, she gradually began to feel more herself and weariness crept over her, her muscles relaxing in the soothing heat of the water. A slight delirium tugged at the back of her mind, anxiousness tightening the corners of her eyes as her brain whispered to her of some horrible experience that she was blocking out. We'll let you remember when you can deal with it – her subconscious told her barely waking mind.
She woke with perfect alertness, weighted down by the quilted and woollen blankets that had been heaped upon her, she calmly pushed them aside. There was no confusion, she knew exactly where she was. Home.
The bed was high and as she swung her feet over the edge of the bed and dropped them to the floor she could see the silver blue moonlight slashing across the mirrored wardrobe. She walked ceremoniously to it's shining, hard, cold surface and touched it with the reverence that a child has for unfamiliar objects that have little worth to grown ups who know their purpose. She could see her dark eyes reflected very close to her face, the whites taking on the pale colour of the moon. She heard a wolf howl, very close, just outside her window and a ripple of fear ran through her. Christina searched her own reflection for protection, as if imploring her mirror image to fight in her stead.
It was then that she began to drink in her reflection, the liquid contours of her body, highlighted here and there by the moonlight, the dip of her navel, the round ball of her shoulder and slash of her shoulder blade. She gasped, at first in horror then in delight as the satanic charms began to appear all over her body again, not painted on in blood but bursting out from beneath her skin, pushed outwards from the core of herself. She raised her arms in the air to study those symbols on her rib cage as they moved with her excited breathing, it was as if they had always been there, just below the surface, waiting the expanse of years to be revealed.
The wolf howled impatiently, and this time Christina grinned at herself in the mirror. She could feel the danger of the predator but no longer his meek prey she revelled in the idea of sharp long teeth, lips snarling over dark pink gums, coursing with blood and adrenaline. She could feel that within her she had the power to rip the wolf apart by it's limbs if she had to. Filled with hunger for the fight she flew down the stairs and through the kitchen, throwing open the back door. Tiny tornados of soot swirled around the skirting boards, but Christina didn't notice, her teeth and eyes sparkled with glee as she searched the night for her destiny.
It took her breath away when Sep stepped out of the shadows, smiling.
'Christina… how are you feeling?' He asked, she could sense insincerity in his movements, the arrogant twist of his mouth.
'Fantastic' She circled around him as she spoke. 'What did you do to me?'
'Nothing!' he exclaimed, holding his hands up in mock innocence.
He twisted to face her as she prowled around and around him. 'Christina I…'
'Liar!' she snarled, before he had chance to defend himself.
For a brief moment he glimpsed the volcano of power that was Christina erupting just behind her eyes, he sensed the very real danger that despite all his dark arts, he could easily be washed away by the fire and lava. For a brief moment he felt no bigger or more consequential than an ant. He had to get her back on his side, leash her in.
'Christina, can't you feel the raw elemental force unleashed within you? You were nothing before, a mediocre career in front of you, failed relationship. Now you are a goddess…' He took a breath, a dramatic pause but she stole his thunder.
'I? a goddess?' She was toying with him now, a thrilling mix of anger and playfulness. ' I thought that Sandy was your queen of the gods.'
Septimus recognised the game. If simple flattery was all she wanted, she was already on his side.
'Oh baby' he said brave enough to reach out and put his hand lightly on her arm 'you are so much more than Hera.'
Suddenly, an image flashed in Christina's mind, and one again she was swathed in luxurious blue fabric, stood between two grate pillars, with the beautiful, shimmering curtain of pomegranate seeds behind her.
'… and whatever flame has been lit in you, I struck the match.' He edged further forward and with his hand in her wild, dark hair he kissed her.
Christina pushed him to the ground roughly. She was full of energy raging inside, like a tornado and so hungry for Sep. She knelt down over him seductively, moving serpent like, lowering herself onto his body.
On the spot where the cards had fallen the night before, Christina could feel that as their limbs entwined, so their fates, there was no going back. But at the back her mind, lay the newly discovered certainty that what ever was behind the curtain that caught the light like thousands of beads of blood, was hers alone to give or withhold, and that she would always have that over him.

On the road again
By Rorie 3 Comments
Hey all,
I'm heading to Virginia tomorrow for my sister's graduation. She's going to be a doctor of criminology or something like that, I guess. I don't really pay much attention to that kind of stuff because she's an icky girl.
Anyway, I'll be only intermittently online from Saturday until Wednesday, and queries to firstname.lastname@example.com may go unanswered until I get back. I'm sure I missed some emails or PMs this week due to the busy-ness, but feel free to email me at email@example.com if you haven't gotten a response to something yet. I'll try to get back to you at some point!

From Rags to Riches
... NH and the next day took a drive to Franconia Notch State Park. AMAZING! We saw the Old Man in the Mountain, rode the tram to the top of hill for a foliage extravaganza, hiked the Notch Flume, and got our butts kicked on the biking trail! We loved our time in New Hampshire. We were amazed at the beauty! We took a train ride on the Conway Scenic Railway.
So off to Vermont where we imagined even more ...
Week 6 September 27 - October 2
... close together: what wonderful people to do this for us!
Tues Sept 29, 2015 Bus tour started with a visit to the Vermont State Capitol. We sat in the House chamber (I chose original desk 33!), stared at the portrait of George Washington at the head of the room and marveled at the history of the place. Our guide took us to the governor's office (he was not IN), media room, etc. It was fun to have freedom to ...
Burlington Breather
... like he was a rugby player - and he was (played for 11 years). When he heard our accent, he could not wait to engage us in conversation about all things football, Jarryd Hayne and how good it was to watch him play for the 49 ers.
We finished the day on the boardwalk along the foreshore of Lake Champlain after a little retail shopping at L.L. Bean.
Shelburne - An Amazing Museum
... even searched for appropriate buildings to house the collections and had them dismantled and moved to the location.
The first building had a furniture collection and the next contained American art. Dave commented, "I feel like we are at the Antiques Road Show without the lines of people."
The last exhibit we visited was some of the rooms in Electra's ...
Uphill Walking and Stairs
Whoever wrote the sign at the entry to Franconia was a master of understatement. The sign warns 'a trip through the flume involves uphill walking and stairs. If I weren't so out-of-breath, hopefully from my cold, I might have counted the stairs. Just kidding. But my iPhone says I only climbed three flights of stairs, but I climbed 7 the day we visited Portland's signal tower. I think my iPhone is broken.

How to Nominate
Working for the people
Judd Buchanan, '53 BA, displayed a strong work ethic from a young age. Beginning with his first paper route, he moved on to work as a "redcap" with CP Rail, unloading luggage and pocketing tips.
He earned an economics degree while serving as president of his fraternity, Kappa Sigma, and the U of A Liberal club. His political interest began when he worked for his father's provincial Liberal campaign. Nelles V. Buchanan, '21 LLB, didn't win, but the teenaged Buchanan was hooked.
Buchanan was elected to the House of Commons in 1968 and appointed to the cabinet in 1974. He served as minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development, minister of Public Works, minister of state for science and technology and president of the Treasury Board.
He helped form one of the earliest Toastmasters clubs in Canada: the Forest City Toastmasters in London, Ont. Buchanan's days serving travellers at CP foreshadowed things to come. He became the first chair of the Canadian Tourism Commission and he invested in Silver Star Mountain Resort near Vernon, B.C. Buchanan was also the first chair of the group that built the Wickaninnish Inn, a hotel on the beach in Tofino, B.C.
His volunteer work has included serving as chair of the Greater Victoria Hospital Society and working with other organizations in London and Victoria. He became an officer of the Order of Canada in 2000.
By the book
Linda C. Cook, '74 BA, '75 BLS, '87 MLS, was one of those kids who read under the covers with a flashlight. When this avid reader enrolled in her first university class, The English Novel, she fell in love with the course.
After completing her library studies degree, Cook began her first library job at the Misericordia Community Hospital, where she learned that librarianship is about helping people and making a difference.
After serving as director of the Yellowhead Regional Library System in Spruce Grove, Alta., Cook began a new journey as chief executive officer of the Edmonton Public Library until her retirement. For 19 years she fought for the public library system, implementing a self-check-in and checkout service, free memberships, an Aboriginal services librarian, a lending machine in an LRT station, new and renewed libraries, and outreach workers to help customers who are at risk use the library.
In 2014, EPL became the first Canadian library to be named North America's Library of the Year, a proud moment for the dedicated CEO and her staff.
Cook continues to make a difference by volunteering on various boards. She was the first recipient of MacEwan University's Gold Medal, has won the U of A's Library and Information Studies Alumni Association Distinguished Alumni Award and both the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal and Diamond Jubilee Medal.
Helping Hands
When Donald C. Fletcher, '80 BMedSc, '82 MD, was in kindergarten, someone asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up and his answer was a doctor or a tiger. He chose scrubs and surgery over stripes and claws.
Ophthalmology appealed to Fletcher and working with low-vision patients called to him. His patients have significant vision loss that affects their everyday life, especially the ability to read. He has provided care to more than 25,000 patients and has worked on technologies to help his patients read.
One of his proudest contributions was to incorporate a team approach that included occupational therapists in low-vision care. It took him 15 years to get blanket approval from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to include rehabilitation with vision improvement.
He has also helped establish low-vision rehabilitation clinics in the Philippines, Zimbabwe and North and South America.
Fletcher has served in leadership roles for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As bishop for a San Francisco congregation at one point, a relative shared that he was a member of the LGBTQ community. Fletcher welcomed the community into the church.
"I think this is one of the most correct things I've ever done, and I will keep pushing until the day I die to ensure my brothers and sisters who are gay know God loves them."
Lawyer, judge, pilot, mayor, lifesaver
Virgil P. Moshansky, '51 BA, '54 LLB, followed an arts degree with a law degree and worked as a lawyer for many years. A move to Vegreville, Alta., brought three terms as mayor.
As a private pilot and aircraft owner, he flew between his office and courtrooms across the province.
In 1976, the federal government called and, after 21 years in Vegreville, Moshansky and his wife June moved to Calgary, where he served on the bench of the Supreme Court of Alberta for 28 years.
On March 10, 1989, Air Ontario Flight 1363 crashed and Moshansky was appointed to head the commission of inquiry into the causes of the incident that killed 24 people in Dryden, Ont.
His team spent three years conducting what has been called the most exhaustive aviation system investigation. A main area of concern was the lack of proper de-icing fluids and procedures. Transport Canada and other international regulatory authorities adopted his recommendations, making revolutionary changes to aircraft de-icing and saving countless lives.
Moshansky received the Order of Canada in 2005 and was elected as a fellow of the U.K. Royal Aeronautical Society in 2007. He has spent much of his time volunteering. He is a life member of the Vegreville Lions Club and a past international director of Lions International.
One life, one goal
When Norgrove Penny, '71 BSc(Med), '73 MD, was three years old, he knew he wanted to be a doctor. Penny grew up in Rhodesia, then Zimbabwe, where his father, Cherer, was a missionary doctor. Penny wanted to follow in his father's footsteps, helping those in need.
With political problems brewing in Rhodesia, his father moved the family to Canada. After medical school, Penny set up Vancouver Island's first sports medicine clinic in Victoria in 1978 and was a consultant at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, Spain. After serving as chief medical officer of the XV Commonwealth Games in Victoria in 1994, Penny was ready to contribute elsewhere.
He and his wife, Anné, and daughters Rebecca, Bethea and Genevieve, travelled to Uganda, where they lived until 2002, so Penny could work with Christian Blind Mission International developing a rehabilitation project for children with polio, congenital club-foot deformity and other disabilities. He was the only pediatric orthopedic surgeon in Uganda.
The orthopedic rehabilitation work Penny began in Uganda has become a successful model program around the world. He received the Order of Canada in 2007.
Penny still works as an orthopedic surgeon in Victoria, and he is on committees that focus on initiatives for children needing orthopedic surgery. He travels overseas to help establish children's programs and to train orthopedic surgeons in developing countries.
Bob H. Aloneissi, '84 BA, '87 LLB, works tirelessly to help make the world a more just and humane place. He is known as one of Alberta's leading criminal lawyers. Outside the courtroom he spends much of his time as a philanthropist. He is a U of A sessional lecturer, teaching criminal trial procedure. His work inspired some of his peers to create the Aloneissi-Gower Pro Bono Community Service Award for law students. Aloneissi has worked on the difficult yet rewarding Victim Offender Rehabilitative Dialogue project, which allows victims to meet and question offenders. In 2012, he was appointed Queen's Counsel, an honorary title given to select lawyers. Aloneissi helps organize an annual Crown versus defence lawyer hockey game, with the proceeds going to charities such as Right to Play. He also supports the World Food Programme, the YMCA's Strong Kids campaign and the Phoenix Multi-Faith Society for Harmony, which fosters harmony among Edmonton's diverse communities. Aloneissi and his wife have four children, and his compassion led to him organizing a group that helped a Syrian refugee family with six children start a new life in Edmonton.
Carla Cuglietta, '01 BEd, '01 BPE, is known for her commitment to volunteer work and service learning with her students as an educator with Edmonton Catholic Schools for 15 years. She has taken her love for service to a global scale by also working in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Mexico, India, Sierra Leone, Uganda and China. One of her biggest passions is securing clean drinking water and micro-finance loans for women in urban slums and rural areas of India. In Sierra Leone and Uganda, she taught peace education and gender equity courses to teachers in partnership with the Canadian Teachers' Federation. She was awarded the Prime Minister's Certificate of Achievement for getting students involved in their community, and won the YWCA Woman of Distinction Award for her global work on gender equity. Locally, she co-founded WE Stand, a leadership summit that inspires and educates young people on how to foster personal growth in a way that creates positive change for others. WE Stand will embark on a world tour to seek out and develop 10,000 young leaders over the next 18 months.
Watch her shock upon learning that she would receive an Alumni Award.
Joel Cohen, '88 BSc, is an award-winning writer and executive producer for one of the most oft-quoted television shows ever. The Simpsons is an animated half-hour of comedic genius that's bursting with social commentary on everything from modern culture and social norms to politics and education. After earning his MBA at York University, Cohen started to dabble in writing, eventually moving to Los Angeles and landing a gig writing for the sitcom Suddenly Susan. In 2001, Cohen began writing for The Simpsons, and there's been no looking back. He now shares his experiences through corporate lectures in a presentation he calls "The Business Tao of Homer: Lessons in Creativity and Innovation From The Simpsons." He is also working on various movie projects. Cohen is an inspiration to past, present and future students, and he wisely says his education was fuelled by curiosity and a sense of self-discovery. His journey from science to satire has been one filled with milestones and much success.
When you look at the work of paleoartist Julius T. Csotonyi, '98 BSc(Hons), '02 MSc, you can almost feel the ground shiver and hear the snuffling and snorting of prehistoric beasts. It's no surprise Csotonyi is one of the world's leading natural history illustrators. His work is in museums such as the Royal Tyrrell Museum and the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum. He contributed to Canadian cultural identity by creating five prehistoric animal-themed stamps for Canada Post and coins and medallions for the Royal Canadian Mint. Csotonyi is a favourite artist of paleontologists around the world, as they look to him to illustrate new species for their research publications. He is also a three-time winner of the John J. Lanzendorf PaleoArt Prize, the only award in the scientific community that recognizes paleontological art.
The phrase "make the world a better place" is used repeatedly when people talk about Margaret Jean Epoch, '77 BPE, '97 BEd, '02 MEd. As a teacher and archivist at a small K-9 school in Niton Junction, Alta., Epoch makes a big difference in the world. Her list of projects, volunteer activities and awards is lengthy. One of her proudest accomplishments is helping make Niton Central School the first Canadian elementary school to be accepted as a member of the Associated Schools Project Network by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The school proudly flies the United Nations flag. Her local volunteer work with students, staff and community members includes Habitat for Humanity, the Terry Fox Run, Aboriginal Achievement Awards, Wigs for Kids, the local food bank and many more programs. Epoch also volunteers with victim services and helped fundraise for the school's naturalization park. She started a fundraiser to help rebuild a school in India after the 2004 tsunami, and her students sent letters of support to victims after the 9/11 attacks and the shooting of four RCMP officers in Mayerthorpe, Alta.

Poppy Barley
When Justine Barber, '06 BCom, had boots made to fit during a trip to Bali, she was told that most people don't make footwear like that anymore. Barber believed if North American customers were given the option to input their measurements online, made-to-measure footwear, created by craftspeople with fair salaries and healthy working conditions, could be delivered to their door.
In pursuit of this dream, she and her sister Kendall travelled to León, Mexico, considered the shoe capital of the world, to partner with translator and shoe broker Laura Obregon-Cordova and factory owner Lupita Lyons. Poppy Barley was born.
In 2012, Poppy Barley became the first company in North America to sell custom fashion boots online. Barber regularly meets with suppliers and tours the factories to ensure transparency, cleanliness and safety.
The Poppy Barley company believes in a collaborative approach. Local employees include U of A grads Monica Gault, '05 BA, Caroline Gault, '10 BA, and Jane Sevick, '14 BCom. The company opened a shop, office and showroom on Edmonton's Whyte Avenue in February 2015, coinciding with a large product-line expansion. A flurry of media attention followed, from Flare and Glamour to Refinery29 and the Globe and Mail. The company currently ships hundreds of pairs of custom leather footwear across North America every month, as well as boots for two National Football League cheerleading teams every season.
Reclaim Urban Farm
Ryan Mason, '09 BA, '15 MSc, and Cathryn Sprague, '09 BCom, '14 MSc, met during graduate studies at the U of A's Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences as they worked on master's degrees in environmental sociology.
With a shared passion for gardening and food security, Mason and Sprague decided to reclaim vacant urban land and use the space for growing food in an effort to improve the local food system. They studied intensive agriculture, invested in equipment and began reclaiming land in May 2014. Reclaim Urban Farm was born.
Mason and Sprague work 15 plots of land borrowed from community partners throughout the Edmonton region. They focus on growing nutritious food with the lowest environmental impact and on educating local communities. They plant every week year-round, including micro-greens indoors during the winter. They harvest on average 45 kilograms per week, easily doubling or tripling that during the summer months. Reclaim shares its produce with its partners and supplies the City Market Downtown, retail locations and several Edmonton restaurants.
Murray Cunningham, '97 BSc(CivEng), grew up on a farm near the eastern Alberta village of Mannville. His legacy with U of A athletics is that of an award-winning, six-foot-six, 245-pound basketball centre and football player. He was with the Golden Bears for their first national basketball championship in 1994. That same year, Golden Bears football coach Tom Wilkinson invited Cunningham to spring training camp and convinced the Edmonton Eskimos to give him a spot on their training camp roster. Cunningham played football with the Bears and was drafted by the Eskimos in 1996. He won some impressive awards, including U of A male athlete of the year. Since graduating, he has built a strong career with Scott Builders and is now chief operating officer of the company. Cunningham lives in Lacombe with his wife, Nadine, and three children. His community involvement has included United Way of Central Alberta, past president of the Golden Bears basketball alumni, a founder of the Lacombe Community Basketball Association and chair of the Lacombe Athletic Park Association.
Toni Kordic Gass, '86 BCom, has devoted more than 30 years to the sport of basketball. Her list of accomplishments is filled with impressive numbers and statistics. Three-time CIS All-Canadian. Four-time Canada West First Team All-Star. Represented Canada at four international competitions. Recipient of the Bakewell Trophy for outstanding female athlete at the U of A. Member of the national women's basketball team. Played in the 1984 Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
After completing her business degree, she moved behind the bench and across the country to coach at Bishop's University in Quebec. She also coached high school ball for more than 20 years. Her love of athletics extends to hockey. She has been a volunteer team manager for a number of hockey teams and helped secure funding to start an AA hockey program in her area. Kordic Gass and her husband, Lucas, have four children and operate a farm in Quebec.
When Carlo Panaro, '99 BSc, '03 MD, twice won TSN's prestigious Russ Jackson Award for excellence in athletics, academics and community service, it truly summed up his achievements. This two-sport athlete was captain of the Golden Bears football team and played in the CFL, winning a Grey Cup with the Edmonton Eskimos in 2003. Panaro was also a member of the Golden Bears wrestling team and the Canadian national wrestling team, and was an Olympic alternate in 2000. Along the way, Carlo earned his doctor of medicine and became an orthopedic surgeon. He has trained in Europe, Great Britain and the United States and volunteered in Ecuador. Panaro lives in Edmonton with his wife, Lauren, and two daughters. He works at the Misericordia and Royal Alexandra hospitals and with the Edmonton Eskimos medical team.
What Jeffrey Zorn, '08 BMedSc, '09 MD, has accomplished is almost unheard of in Canadian university sport history. As a Golden Bears hockey player he had the rare distinction of being named a CIS All-Canadian four times and a CIS Academic All-Canadian five times. Zorn won the prestigious Dr. Randy Gregg TSN Award as an outstanding student athlete, excelling in sport, academics and community involvement. He was also a member of the Golden Bears 2005 national championship team. While a student, Zorn volunteered with Friends of University Hospitals, the tobacco-free kid program and the postgraduate medical education mentor program. He received the Dr. Martin T. Spoor Memorial Award from the U of A's Department of Surgery in 2013 for his commitment to providing outstanding patient care as a surgical resident. Zorn is a urologist in Courtney, B.C., where he lives with his wife, Laura. His interest in surgical volunteer work abroad has recently taken him to Guatemala.
Andrea Johnson, '16 BMedSc, is a strong supporter of inclusivity, mentorship and encouraging well-rounded, healthy living. As a leader on the medical school orientation committee, she ensured her fellow students felt welcomed upon entering school, and she later facilitated student mentorship and presentations supporting their transition through medical training. A skilled swing dancer, Johnson helped increase membership in the university swing-dance club as president and later co-founded the Medical Students' Association Dance Club as a way for her fellow students to network, promote healthy balance and relieve stress. Johnson is engaged in several youth mentorship and preventive health programs, such as a weeklong summer camp teaching about science and healthy living, and a smoking cessation education program. Outside of class, Johnson is a talented pianist and artist and recently travelled to the Mediterranean with friends and family.

The Calm Before a Storm.
It feels like the calm before the storm. I can feel how tense everyone seems but on the outside they affect the divinity of being serene. I mimic their manners and laugh at their plights alongside them. They make light of problems they themselves don't understand. I can't take it anymore.
I want the storm to come. I want to bask in the rain. Eventually, the lightning will come and the thunder will make them cry. Eventually, the rain will wash away sorrows and everything will seemingly return to normal.
But we'll be wet with the tears we shed. We'll be covered in the cloudy gloom unless a rainbow breaks through and colors the sky.
Erases the tears.
Makes everything seem alright.
I want the storm to come.
I want to feel like crap and like I can't stand it anymore. I want them to yell and scream and get out all their feelings while I hide behind the clouds.
I want to feel the refreshing rain on my skin while I admire the brilliant flashes of lightning. I want things to be better.
I can't believe they don't realize a storm is coming. I can't believe I'm the only one to appreciate its beauty and worth.
When will it be over?
I know it can't last forever. I can make it through the storm and hope for the rainbow. But to reach the end, it needs to start.

It quoted Houshang Sobuti, an official of the Cultural Heritage Organisation in the western Iranian city of Zanjan, as saying the pickled corpse, with a gold earring in its left ear, was found in the nearby village of Chehrabad.
'The eyebrows, moustache and beard on the face of the man, who apparently died in the partial collapse of the quarry and was buried under thick layers of salt, have remained intact,' Mr Sobuti said. Preliminary studies put the corpse's age at 2,600 years and pieces of pottery from the sixth or seventh century BC were found nearby, he added.Reuse content

A 14-year-old Palestinian schoolgirl jailed by Israel for allegedly throwing stones has been freed after her case sparked international outrage.
Malak al-Khatib was arrested by the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) as she walked home from school on 31 December in the village of Beitin, near Ramallah.
She became a symbol of the hundreds of imprisoned children from the West Bank and her sentence unleashed a wave of protests by Palestinians and supporters.
After more than six weeks in prison, Malak was released on Friday, her family told Ma'an news agency. Pictures showed her family greeting her in emotional scenes at the Jubara checkpoint in the West Bank.
Malak had been sentenced to two months in jail after being convicted of "attempting to throw objects at a transportation route, possessing a knife and throwing objects at a person or at property", Haaretz reported.
Israeli prosecutors claimed she intended to stab soldiers with the knife but her family deny all the charges. In addition to the prison term, she was fined 6,000 shekels (£1,000).
"My heart broke when I saw her in court, cuffed and shackled," her mother, Khawla al-Khatib, recently told AFP from her home.
"I brought in a coat for her to wear because it was cold, but the judge refused to let her have it."
Palestinian authorities claimed Malak was handcuffed and blindfolded upon arrest, interrogated without a family member or lawyer present and detained for three weeks before her trial.
An Israeli military spokesperson told AFP that the girl was convicted after a plea bargain over an alleged incident on the Route 60 motorway, which is used by both Israeli settlers and Palestinians.
An indictment served at a military court said Malak had "picked up a stone" to throw at cars.
"Rock-throwing is an extremely dangerous crime, which has maimed and killed Israeli civilians in the past," the spokesperson added.
Malak's imprisonment ignited anger about the detention of children by Israeli security forces.
A letter from the Palestinian government to the UN in January said around 300 Palestinian children are currently being held in Israeli jails and a total of at least 1,266 were detained in the West Bank and East Jerusalem during 2014.
The majority were between the ages of 12 and 15 but some were much younger, the letter said.
"The occupying forces continue to harass and attack Palestinian children in violent raids on towns, villages and refugee camps, at checkpoints and in peaceful demonstrations and continue to carry out pre-dawn raids on the homes of families, seizing children in the dead of night, intensifying the trauma for both child and parents," it continued.
"It is also a routine practice of Israel to detain Palestinian children for extended periods of time without access to parents or lawyers and to subject children to forced interrogations, leading to confessions made under duress, and to beatings, solitary confinement and other forms of psychological and physical torture, as well as to military court trials."
The vast majority of arrested children are boys, drawing Malak's case to public attention.

In a report released in February 2013, Unicef criticized Israel for its treatment of arrested Palestinian children, saying their interrogation combines "intimidation, threats and physical violence, with the clear purpose of forcing the child to confess."
"Children have been threatened with death, physical violence, solitary confinement and sexual assault, against themselves or a family member," it claimed.
The Israeli embassy has not responded to The Independent's request for a comment.Reuse content

Munhuwepasi Chikosi, working as a locum at the time, insisted he could not leave the Vets Now clinic in Bedford to attend a Labrador cross which had been run over.
The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) has struck off a vet from the register after he delayed attending a dog that had been run over by a car.
Munhuwepasi Chikosi, originally from Zimbabwe, appeared before the college's disciplinary committee (DC) on June 18 and, following a two-day hearing, was found guilty of "unreasonably delaying" attending Mitzi, a 14-and-a-half-year-old Labrador cross, and of "unnecessarily causing" her to remain in pain and suffering for at least an hour.
On September 9 (2011), when Chikosi was working as a locum at the Vets Now out-of-hours emergency service in Barton-le-Clay, Bedford, Mitzi's owner telephoned him to say his dog was severely injured and requested a home visit for euthanasia. Chikosi asked the owner to bring Mitzi into the practice, but this was unsuccessful and the dog "uncharacteristically" bit the owner's son. The owner called the practice again, but Chikosi insisted he could not leave the practice, as he was looking after other animals. Instead, he said he could possibly organise another vet to visit "probably within the next hour or two".
At the DC hearing, the committee considered Chikosi's actions in context of the RCVS Guide to Professional Conduct (2011), which lists a number of factors for vets to consider when deciding whether to attend an animal away from the practice premises, such as the treatment needed, the owner's ability to manage pain before "normal" veterinary hours and travelling time for the vet.
The committee found Chikosi had made no enquiries to determine whether Mitzi was in a fit condition to be moved, and offered no advice as to how her condition could be alleviated while waiting for the home visit. Further, his advice that Mitzi should be moved on a blanket was wrong, as she may have had an injured back. Plus, despite him insisting he was unable to leave the practice, the committee noted he only had three in-patients and no critical cases. A qualified veterinary nurse was also present.
The DC said it found "there was no good reason" why Chikosi should not have attended the farm, which was 10 to 15 minutes' drive away. Also, by the time Mitzi's owner called the second time, it was clear the out-of-hours service was experiencing difficulty finding another vet, but, instead of going to the farm himself, Chikosi waited another hour until another vet was available.
Chairman of the DC Peter Lees said the committee was "satisfied" the delay from Chikosi caused Mitzi unnecessary suffering, evidenced by her biting the owner's son, something out of character for her.
"[Her owner] had recognised the severity of the injuries and the need for euthanasia as soon as was practicable," said Prof Lees. "[Chikosi's] failure to attend a seriously injured dog promptly in the circumstances described falls far short of the conduct to be expected of a reasonably competent veterinary surgeon."
He directed that Chikosi's name be struck off the register.

Your thoughts on PR70 vs MS70? value wise longterm.
I don't think it matters too much, as long as the company that did the grading is respectable.
Do you like PCGS or NGC for grading? Face value vs weight & purity makes no difference to me personally. With this being said the proof coins are stunning!! When it comes to pure aesthetics in my opinion the proofs always look better than the BU coins, no matter if it's an Eagle, Libertad, Buffalo, etc.
Proofs don't only look better, they also build value better. I really like my proof Maple Leaf Panda Privy. When it comes down to grading, I'm alright with PCGS or NGC. However, if I wanna pay less for the same coin, I'll go with NGC.

Love and its innocence
Short Story by: ChristinaDelano
Status: Finished
Genre: Romance
I think we all remember how love felt when we were 16. Nothing mattered except the two of you. You were going to spend the rest of your lives together. I remember my first love. I was 15 and we were gonna go to Georgia and get married cause it was legal there......lol. No matter that, I was head over heels. He was it for me. Some people find this love at a tender age and lose it and have a bitterness in their heart from the pain. Some people find this love and it lasts forever. You ever notice that alot of marriages that last started in high school? That is because when we were young we werent afraid of love. We werent afraid of what people thought about us or our "other" and we didnt need approval. We loved the way we were meant to. We werent bitter from pain. People are so stuck on the past and what has happened to them as they get older that they forget about the true innocence of love. People are scared. But, we are all scared. Some of us are just willing to take that chance to find what we know exists. So when you find someone that you have that connection with and you get scared.......remember the first time you looked into your first loves eyes and the way you felt. Remember that first dance at your sweet 16 party. Remember the first kiss you had with your love. Remember the butterflies you felt. Remember being carefree. And live life like it is still that love. When you do you will find an everlasting love again. And if you can overcome your fears and the obstacles that you face....then you will be graced with the love that God intended us all to share.
This brings me to my next topic......lol......yeah I know.......theres more....bare with me. People quit. They quit jobs, they quit school, they quit smoking, they quit alot of things. Because it is the easy way out. Usually. Well I dont see love that way. I do believe that there is a time and place to end a relationship. infidelity, abuse, beliefs, but just giving up on love because you are tired of "the way things have gotten" is quitting. It is putting all of the love, sweat, and tears you have contributed to this relationship and saying......I lied. It wasnt worth it. I understand we all get upset and hurt when we fight and go through hard times, but people give up so fast. Everyone says let him go, if he loves you he will come back. Dont do that to love. Love is hard. Love is work. It isnt all fun and games. It isnt all romance and kisses. It isnt all butterflies. Its hard times, and seperation, tears, and sweat, fights, and disagreements, and the courage to stand back up after all of it and say......I made a promse to you and I am true to my word. At the end of the day all any of us have is our word. People fall out of love, and if you do, then there is no relationship left. But if you are out of love, then you can walk away. But if you are in tears and sobbing and "dont know what to do".......you are in love. Work for what you want. Dont ever give up. Dont become bitter. Dont let love become just another word. Just remember love at 16. Remember that dance at your sweet 16, remember that first kiss, rememebr the butterflies, remember the carefree. Live life like it is still that love. It will be hard.....But that is love. No one said it would be easy. Its the hard that makes it great.
And for you girls that are stuck and "dont know what to do"......you love him. Dont let go so easy. Stick it out. You may be surprised to see what happens. But never, never.......be bitter.

Okay not a short story this in one of your rants :-) And a good rant it is you have covered the subject well and yes you have to work at keeping love going good. And some make walking out of a relationship to easy. I enjoyed this read PLUS I would sit there and listen to you give this rant if you were up on a soapbox
Wow! All I have to say is AMEN TO THAT! Love rules! :)
Your last paragraph really hit me. It is very motivating in asking people to follow their hearts but yet remember not to be bitter. Just a sentiment here... I think it's very difficult not to be bitter. The stronger the love, the harder you fall in the case of breakups. Overall, this is a very nice short story to read. ^.^
