mad little story about a post appocolypse US where religion has taken full control (so not so mad there).
It was the first of Cory's works that I read, and I've continued reading his stuff, so it must be okay (and have even bought one of his works in paperback, on the strength of this story).
Out of five I'd give it three, so it's worth a few hours of your time to read.

In "Eckhart" and the "Runenberg" we have seen some of the moral trials which meet men on first starting into life.
Eckhart has been called the first of the speculative mystics.
He was the iron landmark of the ages—Eckhart, the creator of eternal values.
In point of fact, Eckhart did give expression to some propositions which implied pantheism and were condemned by the Holy See.
But whence did Eckhart derive his expressions which reappear in Dante?
But the soul of the mystic in stone contains the same elements as the soul of Eckhart, who was also a schoolman.
I am as necessary to God, Eckhart is fond of saying, as God is necessary to me.
The time was ripe and the consummators came: Dante in the south, Eckhart in the countries north of the Alps.
Another point of resemblance with Eckhart is suggested by his words: "That foolish people take evil for good, and good for evil."
Eckhart experienced and recreated the shapeless depths of the soul, the regions of the blending of the soul with God.

Listen to Paramore Radio on iHeartRadio
Paramore's Hayley Williams hopes to be back on stage Thursday night after she and her bandmates were forced to pull out of two back-to-back stops on their Monumentour with Fall Out Boy.
The singer explains that her doctor and vocal coach kept her in bed because of a chest infection and general exhaustion.

Erlotinib (Tarceva®)
Pronounced: er-LOE-ti-nib
Classification: Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor
About Erlotinib (Tarceva®)
Erlotinib is a small molecule drug that inhibits tyrosine kinase, an enzyme associated with the human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR). By inhibiting this enzyme, erlotinib prevents EGFRs from stimulating the uncontrolled growth of cells that contributes to tumor growth.
How to Take Erlotinib
Erlotinib comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually taken on an empty stomach once a day, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after eating a meal or snack. Take erlotinib at around the same time every day. Take the tablet whole, do not break, crush or chew.
The blood levels of this medication can be affected by certain foods and medications, so they should be avoided. These include: grapefruit, grapefruit juice, verapamil, ketoconazole, rifampin, phenytoin, St. John's wort, and modafanil. Be sure to tell your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you take.
The levels of this medication can also be affected by medications used to treat heartburn. Do not take proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole, Nexium, Protonix, Prevacid) while on erlotinib. If you need to take an H2 blocker (tagamet, zantac, pepcid), these should be taken 10 hours before and 2 hours after erlotinib (for example, take erlotinib at 8am, take tagamet at 10am & 10pm). If you need to take antacids (Rolaids, tums), separate these from the erlotinib by several hours.
The blood levels of this medication can also be impacted by cigarette smoking. Be sure to inform your healthcare provider if you are currently smoking, or if you quit smoking while taking this medication, as the dose you receive may need to be adjusted.
Storage and Handling
Store this medication at room temperature in the original container. If you prefer to use a pillbox, discuss this with your oncology pharmacist. Ask your oncology team where to return any unused medication for disposal. Do not flush down the toilet or throw in the trash.
Where do I get this medication?
Erlotinib is available through select specialty pharmacies. Your oncology team will work with your prescription drug plan to identify an in-network specialty pharmacy for distribution of this medication and shipment directly to your home.
Insurance Information
This medication may be covered under your prescription drug plan. Patient assistance may be available to qualifying individuals without prescription drug coverage. Co-pay cards, which reduce the patient co-pay responsibility for eligible commercially (non-government sponsored) insured patients, are also available. Your care team can help you find these resources, if they are available.
Possible Side Effects of Erlotinib
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of erlotinib. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
Nail and Skin Changes
Erlotinib has some unique nail and skin side effects that you may develop. Patients may develop a rash. While this rash may look like acne, it is not, and should not be treated with acne medications. The rash may appear red, swollen, crusty, dry and feel sore. You may also develop very dry or darkened skin, which may crack, be itchy or become flaky or scaly. The rash typically starts in the first week of treatment, but can occur at any time during treatment. Tips for managing your skin include:
- Use a thick, alcohol-free emollient lotion or cream on your skin at least twice a day, including right after bathing.
- Avoid sun exposure, as it can worsen the rash or cause a severe burn. Use a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and wear a hat and sunglasses to protect your head and face from the sun.
- Bathe/shower in cool or lukewarm (not hot) water and pat your skin dry.
- Use soaps, lotions and laundry detergents without alcohol, perfumes or dyes.
- Wear gloves to wash dishes or do housework or gardening.
- Drink plenty of water and try not to scratch or rub your skin.
- Notify your healthcare team if you develop a rash, as they can provide suggestions to manage the rash and/or prescribe a topical medication to apply to the rash or an oral medication.
- If you develop peeling or blistering of the skin, notify your healthcare team right away.
While receiving erlotinib, you may develop an inflammation of the skin around the nail bed/cuticle areas of toes or fingers, which is called paronychia. It can appear red, swollen or pus filled. Nails may develop "ridges" in them or fall off. You may also develop cuts or cracks that look like small paper cuts in the skin on your toes, fingers or knuckles. These side effects may appear several months after starting treatment, but can last for many months after treatment stops.
- Follow the same recommendations for your skin (above).
- Don't bite your nails or cuticles or cut the cuticles.
- Keep your fingernails and toenails clean and dry.
- You may use nail polish, but do not wear fake nails.
- Notify your doctor or nurse if any nails fall off or you develop any of these side effects or other skin abnormalities.
Eye Concerns
While receiving erlotinib, some patients may develop irritation or damage to the cornea (clear part covers the eyeball) or changes in your eyesight. Notify your healthcare team if you develop any eye pain, swelling, redness or any vision changes, including blurriness and sensitivity to light.
Hair Changes
While receiving cetuximab, your eyelashes may grow very fast, become very long and bother your eyes. The hair on your head may become curly, fine or brittle. These tend to resolve once treatment is stopped.
Nausea and/or Vomiting
Talk to your doctor or nurse so they can prescribe medications to help you manage nausea and vomiting. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
Your oncology team can recommend medications to relieve diarrhea. Also, try eating low-fiber, bland foods, such as white rice and boiled or baked chicken. Avoid raw fruits, vegetables, whole grain breads, cereals and seeds. Soluble fiber is found in some foods and absorbs fluid, which can help relieve diarrhea. Foods high in soluble fiber include: applesauce, bananas (ripe), canned fruit, orange sections, boiled potatoes, white rice, products made with white flour, oatmeal, cream of rice, cream of wheat, and farina. Drink 8-10 glasses on non-alcoholic, un-caffeinated fluid a day to prevent dehydration.
Decrease in Appetite
Nutrition is an important part of your care. Cancer treatment can affect your appetite and, in some cases, the side effects of treatment can make eating difficult. Ask your nurse about nutritional counseling services at your treatment center to help with food choices.
- Try to eat five or six small meals or snacks throughout the day, instead of 3 larger meals.
- If you are not eating enough, nutritional supplements may help.
- You may experience a metallic taste or find that food has no taste at all. You may dislike foods or beverages that you liked before receiving cancer treatment. These symptoms can last for several months or longer after treatment ends.
- Avoid any food that you think smells or tastes bad. If red meat is a problem, eat chicken, turkey, eggs, dairy products and fish without a strong smell. Sometimes cold food has less of an odor.
- Add extra flavor to meat or fish by marinating it in sweet juices, sweet and sour sauce or dressings. Use seasonings like basil, oregano or rosemary to add flavor. Bacon, ham and onion can add flavor to vegetables.
Fatigue is very common during cancer treatment and is an overwhelming feeling of exhaustion that is not usually relieved by rest. While on cancer treatment, and for a period after, you may need to adjust your schedule to manage fatigue. Plan times to rest during the day and conserve energy for more important activities. Exercise can help combat fatigue; a simple daily walk with a friend can help. Talk to your healthcare team for helpful tips on dealing with this side effect.
GI Tear (Perforation)
This medication can cause a tear in the intestinal wall, also called a gastrointestinal perforation. Signs of this can include: new or worsening pain in the abdomen, new abdominal swelling, chills, fever, constipation, nausea or vomiting. If you experience any of these, contact your healthcare provider immediately or go to the emergency room.
Lung Changes
Erlotinib can cause lung problems, including interstitial lung disease. Call your physician right away if you have shortness of breath, cough, wheezing, difficulty breathing, or fever.
Liver Toxicity
This medication can cause liver toxicity, which your doctor may monitor for using blood tests called liver function tests. Notify your healthcare provider if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes, your urine appears dark or brown or pain in your abdomen, as these can be signs of liver toxicity.
Heart Attack and Stroke
Erlotinib can increase the risk of stroke and heart attack. If you experience symptoms of these problems, you should contact your healthcare provider immediately or go to an emergency room. Symptoms can include: chest pain or pressure, pain in your arm, back, neck or jaw, shortness of breath, numbness or weakness on one side of the body, trouble talking, confusion or mental status changes.
Reproductive Concerns
Exposure of an unborn child to this medication could cause birth defects, so you should not become pregnant or father a child while on this medication. Effective birth control is necessary during treatment and for at least 2 weeks after treatment. Even if your menstrual cycle stops or you believe you are not producing sperm, you could still be fertile and conceive. You should consult with your healthcare team before breastfeeding while receiving this medication.

|January 2, 2012 - Allstate Sugar Bowl Press Conference Quotes
Michigan Head Coach Brady Hoke
THE MODERATOR: We'll go ahead and get started with coach Brady Hoke, Michigan head coach.
Coach, just a few thoughts on how your preparations have gone for the game, and we'll open the floor for questions.
COACH HOKE: Well, first, on behalf of the University of Michigan and Team 132, our kids, the staff, trainers, the marching band, everybody, we can't tell you how thrilled we are to be here and how much we appreciate the great hospitality the city of New Orleans has given us and the Bowl committee, the Sugar Bowl committee, and all their people and their efforts. It's been great.
I want to thank Tulane and the opportunity to use their facilities. They were tremendous, and really as a team I think we've had good preparations starting back in Ann Arbor, navigating finals and all those things that are a part of it.
And then coming down here, I think our team has really done well. I think we've gone out every day and competed. I think we've had a focus and an intensity.
And so we're excited. And I think, like everybody, we want to kick it off and play the football game.
THE MODERATOR: Questions?
Q. With this being your first year, how much of this team has your fingerprints on it versus what you just had to use because this is what the old regime had?
COACH HOKE: This is our seniors' team. It's not Brady Hoke. It's our seniors. And what those fourth? and fifth?year guys have done, how they have managed this football team and their expectations.
It is never about the coach at Michigan. It's never about anything but Michigan and the guys who are playing.
Q. There's obviously a disparity, experience?wise, between yourself and Coach Beamer. Can much be made of that? Or obviously the game's going to be played on the field between the players, but can much be made of that, I guess, in terms of preparation or anything like that?
COACH HOKE: You know, I don't know. I think there's always ?? the more you have experience at something, you probably tweak it and figure out a few more things.
But we are a pretty seasoned staff, when you look at us from guys who have coached in a lot of Bowl games, a lot of different teams. So we always have great input on preparation and are we doing enough or are we not doing enough and those kind of things.
But I would think that there's something to having those years of experience and the quality of coach that Coach Beamer is.
Q. I know you talked about this being for your seniors and the end of the line, but how much thought have you given to that Alabama game next September in Dallas?
COACH HOKE: You know what, really not much. You know, we gotta finish this one off. And that will be a great opener for us a year from now.
But right now we've got to finish off ?? we started it, and so we need to finish it.
Q. Coach Beamer talked about all the things that winning a Bowl, a BCS Bowl, does going into talking to people in the off?season and getting ready for spring ball. Can you talk a little bit about what that would mean?
COACH HOKE: Well, you know, I think there's a momentum that any team has when you win that last opportunity you have to play.
I think there's something to be said for that. You're on a national stage. The only game in town. And so people who love and have a passion for college football, they're going to take notice.
Q. Obviously in your first year you got your players you recruited so they don't necessarily lend themselves to the system that you want to run, particularly Denard Robinson. Talk about how you've tweaked your offense a little bit so you're able to use his dynamic way that he plays football.
COACH HOKE: You know, Al Borges, our offensive coordinator, is a very smart man. He's coordinated a lot of different places. I think we have a system that we're working towards. But I think Al's really done a great job on the different things that Denard ?? because of what he brings to the table, his athleticism, I think, you know, and how he's progressed in what we're doing.
I think he's a big part of what we want to do as a football team. And I think we're smart enough to know that we've got a pretty good football player there, so why not utilize what he does well.
Q. Brady, the defensive improvement you guys made this year is well documented. What ?? when you first came in with your staff and Greg Mattison, what was the biggest and first thing you had to change about the defensive mentality?
COACH HOKE: You said it there at the end. There's a mentality and an expectation, and there's a pride ?? and coaching there at Michigan before, there's a pride that you play Michigan defense and Michigan football.
And, you know, the scheme was different. Personnel was a little bit used differently. But I think all those guys on defense are such good teachers from a fundamental and technique standpoint and expectations that our guys hear every day of how you play Michigan football.
And then it's really up to those guys, the Mike Martins, the Woolfolks, and Van Bergens and the guys who are the leaders on that defense and everything that they've done.
Q. Coach, being a Ohio native coaching at Michigan, you were an assistant at Michigan before taking the head coach job, does that offer anything interesting? Does that come up in the process and coaching there?
COACH HOKE: No, not really. Michigan's had some pretty good Ohio coaches as assistants. And a guy name Schembechler wasn't bad. And, believe me, there's no near comparison, but it's still the greatest rivalry in the sport, that game.
So it's a lot of fun.
Q. Brady, you talked about ownership. And how long did that process take for your seniors to really take hold of the team, especially with you being a new coach and you wanted to put your footprint on the program?
COACH HOKE: Well, you know, again, our seniors, you know, we communicate a lot. We talk a lot. We do leadership seminars all during the second semester with our seniors and talk about leadership and influence and what it is. And those have all helped. Coach (Aaron) Wellman and I run those. And guys really being committed to each other, it's a big part of it, and respecting each other, and that's what they've done.
Q. Have you thought of the prospect of Denard Robinson playing on field turf in the Superdome? And also, seriously, do you feel like you've had enough time to get used to the Superdome as Virginia Tech practiced three times last week?
COACH HOKE: I hope so. I think we had a pretty good practice when we went over there the other day. We do more than walk?through today; we practice. And so we'll get some work in there again. And the turf and the field itself is in great shape and it's a great turf. And Denard would be fine, I think.
Q. I know you're a little reluctant to look ahead. But next year with Ohio, would you like to say in transition, Penn State in transition, Wisconsin and Michigan State losing their quarterbacks, is there a window of opportunity for Michigan, you're going to be good anyway, but to be in that national championship picture?
COACH HOKE: Oh, I don't know about that. We really ?? you know, every team's different. We're going to find out a lot about Team 133 and the seniors who are going to lead that team.
We're going to have some holes to fill, like everyone does, and I think once we get through spring, I think we'll have an idea where we're at.
Q. Frank was in here talking about his first few years at Virginia Tech, it took some time for him to get that rolling. At Ball State it took some time for you to get that rolling. Do you see in college football now where administrators are just less patient and guys aren't getting a fair shake?
COACH HOKE: Well, you're probably going to have to ask the administrators that. It's part of what college football is to some degree, with what have you done lately. And just how it is. I mean, but certain places have a different philosophy at times. Certain places don't.
It's all part of it. And I can't judge if you get enough time, don't get enough time.
Q. If you guys win this game, would you say Michigan is back as far as the national, the national attention that you guys would get going into the off?season?
COACH HOKE: I don't think Michigan ever left. There was some ?? maybe a lean year or two. But Michigan was always Michigan. And will be.
So Michigan never left.
Q. You've talked a lot about how your nerves mostly come out in the days leading up to a game and that you're mostly calm on game days. Do you expect that to still be the case tomorrow?
COACH HOKE: It's going to be fun. It's going to be a lot of people cheering and it's going to be bands there and people are going to have fun.
Q. I don't know if you've been asked this question, but what is your definition of a Michigan man?
COACH HOKE: It's always been a guy who plays at Michigan who has got a toughness to him in how he plays the game. He's got a tremendous respect for the University of Michigan and his teammates. A guy who has got integrity, and a guy who has character.
Q. Team 132, seems like I've heard that from you quite a bit over the course of the season. Is that something you just started at Michigan or Ball State where you started talking about Team 78, Team 79?
COACH HOKE: We've always numbered our teams. At Ball State, whatever those numbers were, and San Diego State, and Coach Carr kind of indoctrinated me into that when he was the head coach at the University of Michigan. And it's about a legacy as a senior class.
And it's about that team, because you're remembered. This team has a chance to be the fifth Michigan team to win 11 games. And that's significant. And it's significant for those seniors. And so we've always done that.
Q. You said Michigan never left, so Michigan can't be back, but is it safe to say there are some elements that are back that were maybe gone, such as physical play and toughness up front along the lines?
COACH HOKE: We hope so. It's something we've always wanted to ?? that we believe in, and that's what we believe Michigan football has been for many, many years.
Q. Is the goal against a team like Virginia Tech, with the team speed issue, is that going to be an emphasis for you guys in the future in recruiting to try to get faster to have greater team speed?
COACH HOKE: I think everybody wants to have speed. It's the balance between the physicalness and the speed that you want.
So, yeah, I think everybody wants to have team speed. And I don't know how fast we are or how unfast we are.
THE MODERATOR: Thank you, Coach.

Best Of :: Bars & Clubs
The last time I saw Barbie, she looked pretty desirable. But after a long night of drinking at PRL, she's ended up naked and tied up in a birdcage. Unfortunately for Barbie, explicit photographs of her risqué night of partying adorn the walls. Albeit, she's doing better than the Polish soldiers — all that's left of them is their hats. And poor Tony Montana... looks like someone robbed his grave, displaying his gun like a trophy. Perhaps the perpetrator is the same person who hung the plastic helicopters from the ceiling pipes. I'm a little confused about how the music is still playing, considering that a heap of records has ended up nailed to the wall. I think the only way I'll be able to get the full story is by looking through the photos in the corridor leading to the bathroom. Regardless of what happened here, the walls of PRL really do tell a story.
Hidden on the bottom floor of a condo building is a dimly lit enclave of polished exclusivity. Just a handful of tables fits inside, and lights shaped like champagne bubbles hang from the ceiling. A large, comfy leather couch sits beneath a huge flat-screen TV that flashes soundless classics such as the The Big Lebowski. Along with the wine bottles lining every available shelf space, floor-to-ceiling pillars cleverly pose as life-sized corks, engraved with names such as Merlot, Fer, and Marzemino. A glass coffee table in the back is filled with more corks, lest you forget your purpose in lounging here. As you sit and sip from your favorite pinot, you can graze on cheese plates and dark-chocolate-covered açaí berries. A quote on the bathroom door says, "Wine is bottled poetry." In this bar, they mean it.
At first, you might think you love Vibe just for its nice rack. But after spending a little bit more time with this sensual, jazzy, 4,000-square-foot indoor/outdoor club that bills itself as Fort Lauderdale's "only music ultra lounge," you might discover that your love runs a little deeper. Yes, the overhead lighting panel that resembles several dozen breasts of various shapes and sizes is both glowing and glorious, but at Vibe, there's more to life than beautiful bosoms: Strong drinks and good music are pretty awesome too.
Laser Wolf's genesis occurred when a group of flannel- and skinny-jeans-wearing, craft-beer-drinking 20- and 30-somethings finally realized they were much too cool for the bars on Himmarshee. Now they all go to Laser Wolf. They chill out and play music you have never heard of from a vinyl record player. They're hot and young and fun, and they'll even welcome you if you're not as cool as them (and trust me, you aren't). A word of caution: Do not refer to them using a certain word that rhymes with flipster or you will be sent away to hang out with the drunken frat boys, trashy townies, and common folk who have generic musical tastes.
Finding a happy-hour spot in Fort Lauderdale is about as easy as spotting a guy wearing Ed Hardy. You just have to open your eyes. However, many of the happy-hour specials don't get started until after the workday, and what fun is that? So for those who live by the motto "It's 5 o'clock somewhere," Bahia Cabana is the happy-hour destination for you. Kicking off at the crack of dawn, it has not one, not two but three happy hours a day — 7 to 11 a.m., 4 to 7 p.m., and after 10 p.m. During the morning and afternoon, all drinks are a dollar off. Two-for-one piña coladas and rum runners start after 10 p.m. Added bonus: If you're not stumbling too much, enjoy the rest of happy hour in the pool. Don't worry about driving home either; Bahia Cabana is a stop on the Water Taxi circuit, making this happy-hour extravaganza safer than the rest.
Here's what a sports fan wants — nay, needs — in a good sports bar: good food, reasonably priced alcohol, plenty of screen visibility, and a crowd that doesn't make the entire thing painful. It sounds like a simple formula, but it's almost never done right. Duffy's, a Florida-based chain of fan-friendly bar and grills, is catching on, though. The location just off SE 17th Street in Fort Lauderdale, in a building that used to house a steak joint, features a bar surrounded by giant flat screens hanging overhead like glowing altars to gods of sport. The menu is also diverse, with everything from glazed ribs to burgers to decadent nachos to goat cheese salads. And the regulars are generally above drunken obnoxiousness but not above giving a stranger a high-five when the home team scores.

The space shuttle Endeavour's trip to the California Science Center next week will trigger rolling road closures across Los Angeles and Inglewood, making it difficult for the public to get close-up views along sections of the 12-mile route, police officials said Thursday.
But at least a handful of public events are planned as the retired orbiter moves on a transporter from Los Angeles International Airport to the Science Center in Exposition Park.
A celebration is scheduled from 8-10 a.m. Oct. 13 at The Forum in Inglewood before the shuttle, which should arrive by 9 a.m., continues east on Manchester Boulevard to South Los Angeles.
Free public parking at Hollywood Park will be provided starting at 4 a.m., but no overnight camping will be allowed, Inglewood police Lt. James Madia said.
The Saturday morning event - which can accommodate 10,000 people - could be the best bet for many wanting to see the orbiter pass through Inglewood.
That's because seven power lines along the path will need to be temporarily deactivated to allow the shuttle to pass beneath them, prompting closures on streets crossing Manchester. "Almost every block it has to stop for electrical lines," Madia said. "It moves when it can and it stops when it has to."
Another celebration - this one produced and directed by choreographer Debbie Allen - is planned starting at 1:30 p.m. Oct. 13 at Martin Luther King Jr. and Crenshaw boulevards. It will feature more than 200 artists, including gymnasts, dancers, taiko drummers and more.
Officials said the Inglewood public event would be able to handle a larger crowd.
"It's very limited viewing there," Shell Amega, vice president of communications for the science center, said of the event planned near Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza.
The shuttle is expected to reach the science center by 9 that evening, Amega said.

Bodegas Volver Tarima Hill 2009
Mourvedre from Jumilla, Spain
Winemaker's Notes
A big, dark, intense wine. Fragrant, violet nose. Lush, dark, blackberry jam palate with a structured, slightly leathery finish.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Vivid ruby. Sexy black raspberry and oak spices on the nose, with notes of fresh rose and anise adding complexity. Sweet, sappy and expansive, offering lively dark berry preserve flavors and a velour-like texture. Graceful and balanced but also packs a punch. Finishes smooth, spicy and quite long."
Bodegas Volver Winery
The Spanish enologist, Rafael Canizares seeks to achieve the maximum expression of the Tempranillo grape grown in the environment. This winery is located in the best terroir of La Mancha found in the eastern region of the Denomination of Origin. The soil is the reason that the winery committed themselves to purchasing 228 acres of vineyards with an average age of 40 years. The sandy soils (up to 1 meter in depth) has an underlayment of large river stones. View all Bodegas Volver Wines
About Jumilla(hue-MILL-ah)
Notable FactsThe grape Monestrell (known as Mourvedre in France) is making an impact here, taking up over 80% of the vineyard land and producing wines of dense fruit and spice character. It snagged the common partner syrah for blending, as well as the international grape, Merlot. Monestrell takes well to the flat vineyards and rocky soils that retain heat. The red wines from Jumilla are full-bodied wines with flavors of black fruits and plums. Rosés of the Monestrell grape are refreshing and fruity.
About Spain
The most popular red varieties of Spain include Tempranillo and Garnacha (Grenache). Whites don't garner quite as much recognition, but there are some regional varieties not to be missed, like Albarino and Verdejo. The popular red regions of Spain include Rioja, known for its outstanding wines of the Tempranillo grape; Ribera del Duero, producing high quality reds from Tempranillo and Garnacha; Galacia, with the sub-region of Rias Baixas, home to the deliciously crisp and floral Albarino grape; and Priorat, a region increasing in popularity with its high-quality cult reds. Other regions of note are Rueda, growing the Verdejo grape, La Mancha, a wide desert region, covered in the most planted white variety in the world, Airen, and Jumilla, making wines based on Monastrell (Mourvedre).
Spain's wine laws are based on the Denominacion de Origen (DO) classification system, devised in the 1930's. A four tiered system, the most basic level is Vina de Mesa (table wine) followed by Vino de la Tierra (country wine), DO and at the top DOC. Currently, only Rioja and Priorat have DOC status, while over 65 DO's scatter the country.
Most DO regions are classified and regulated by how long they age the wines. On a red wine label, one may find the terms Crianza, Reserva or Gran Reserva, denoting the wine's barrel and bottle time. Crianza is usually two years between barrel and bottle (the time in each depends on the DO and/or the winemaker), Reserva up to 4 years and Gran Reserva 5 – 6 years. Classifications of each region and wine are controlled by the region's Consejo Regulador.

Post subject: POLL: Most in a day & How/Where to break a hundred?
Many of you out there have done this before and many may be trying, so let's hear some tips/strategies to get there - or at least a bit closer. Maxing at 51 in a day (and it was a looong day) makes me wonder how I could double that and bow down to some numbers I've heard.
So what worked for you on your record day????
PQs with terrain under 2? 1.5? 1?
Difficulty under a certain number?
Lots of driving or finding different areas where walking gets a bunch?
Staying away from certain EVIL cache owners?
GSAK filter recommendations?
Time limit set at a cache before moving on?
Recommendations for an area of the cities (Personally, 475 finds within 10 miles of 169 and Old Shakopee and only 83 10-20 miles away leaves lots to be had).
Thanks for any info, and if anyone wants to join me on Sunday, 4/17, that's going to be my first shot at it!!

Ours was just sheer determination. Andrew and I had found 7 (which was out previous daily record) and just pushed on.
I was actually going to go out and try to hit the Wall Trail series of 25 today, but between the morons at work and the weather I decided to try for another day.
There's actuall a new macro for gsak
that doesn't some magic selecting of cache names to try and identify series.

I've done it twice. The strategy the first time was starting at 5AM and ending at midnight. The strategy the second time was caching in Sica Hollow State Park in South Dakota. (There are about 70 caches there all about 600 feet apart.) I imagine you could get well on your way to 100 without driving that far or staying up that long if you tried Bobcam's bus stop series.

Tonkajen and I and our 2 teenage sons have logged 101 in one day. It requires way more than just a pocket query. It took hours of route planning so that you do the least amount of driving between caches and get the max caches in a given area. Research the caches and only choose ones that have been found recently. Don't pick ones with off coords or where people had to search a long time. Keep track on a paper with the plan printed out.
We (and many others) used a route between Clearwater and St. Cloud because the area is dense with lampskirts and neighborhood parks with close parking. We did not split up and we signed every log (although others use stamps or stickers). We left the house a little after 6 am, logged our first cache at 7:10 am and logged our last one about 12 hours later. We were home by 8 pm. We brought food and snacks but we did make an ice cream stop. One thing that will for sure sabotage your goal is to stray from the plan. If the plan is good, you should be able to get to 100.

Oh, and one of the best route planners that I know is Minnstars. He is a really good resource for how to plan. I cached Hudson Hot Air Affair with him and some other folks. We got over 50 in 6 hours with 2 hours drive time.

Hudson Hydrant series by HudsonHotAirAffair (50 or so caches?)___St.Paul BS series by bobcam (75 or so caches?)___Blaine Wall Trail series by TopGear (24 or so caches?) could add up to a 100+ local cache day?

For sure. I am working on a plan to get KB's 3 state 100 in a day challenge and it looks easily doable with the Hudson Hydrant caches and the Bobcam BS series. The longest part of the day would be the trek to Iowa to get that 3rd state.

I never really wanted to grab 100 caches in a day, but since there was a challenge for it I decided to go for it. Laura (no name) and I sat down with two laptops. She looked at the map and I created a bookmark list. I labeled each cache in the order that we were going to do them. We then printed out the list to keep track of where we were on the list and where to go next. Mainly 2/2 and below that had been found recently. If you see the word pine tree, skip it. We wasted a lot of time on "easy" pine tree caches. If you are trying for three states, which we were, I would recommend caching from Austin to La Crosse and then drop into Alamakee County Iowa. We made sure that we had 100 MN caches and a few from each of the other two sates. Teamwork is key. We did it in 18 hours, but we had a couple of other goals that ate up some time. I believe that my bookmark is still active if you want to check it out.
I think I am going to try and break my current record soon with 150+ in a day. There is a "power trail" west of Sioux Falls of 100 caches. It isn't a true power trail since some are more than .15 miles apart and I saw some diff 4 and 4.5 in there. But it should be an interesting set of caches. There is another actual power trail south of Sioux Falls of 30 caches.

I have yet to break 100 in a day but I do know it is possible with minimal effort if your timing is right and you pick the correct area.
My top counts per day, 61, 60, 54, and 50-something, ALL took place during the winter months with snow on the ground and minimal daylight hours. Had I done the same during the summer, I know for sure that my top count in a day could be double.
But in the summer months I have other goals.. so 100+ finds per day doesn't interest me all that much anymore. While I am still into the "numbers", as soon as the snow melts, it's quality over quantity.
Having said that, time to stay on topic. If you want serious cache density, head to Rochester or St. Paul. While Hudson can get you quite a few caches, not sure that's the best place to go unless you include a second area.

Post subject: Poll: Most in a day
Last fall we joined up with Captain and Mate and in just shy of 11 hours got 110. Could easily have been more but we ended up with a very slow start due to our choice of starting points and ened up with some longer driving in between finds than anticipated. Once the sun came up, finds also became easier. I'd defininately recommend doing this as a team. We had a driver, navigator and planner who manned the back seat (operations center as we called it). Being a diabetic, some stops were needed but we did pack some food and tried to only stop when fuel was needed. We used some MutherandSon power trail caches near Pioria Il. It was't something I would enjoy doing very often. By the time we got done, if I never saw a 35mm container at the base of a sign post again I would have died happy. Having done it I can definately say that I'd be capable of doing 200 given the right location but don't see how we possibly could have done more than that. I'd be wiped out both physically and mentally. But that's just me. I'm quite sure there are MANY more Cachers more finatical than I am. I should also add that this was not a team thing. We were each physically present at each find and attached a "Sticker" with our names instead of signing the log.

Wow! I wasn't expecting the 100+ to be the highest in the poll - I sure have some work to do. I probably won't get 870 tomorrow, but I hope to at least beat my 51 - and someday with a bit of planning and a couple more people, I'll break that hundred barrier. The three state hundred challenge looks like fun!
Thanks for all the tips and locations. Keep 'em coming!

Hudson - Hydrants (50) + MNWild11 series (11). Woodbury's UM series. That got us a great start.
Didn't there used to be a normal 100 in a day challenge? All I can seem to find is the KB 100 in 3 states and the KB MN 100 in a day challenge... Which doesn't help when I'm split between WI and MN. Or am I missing something...

My high is 50. I'm not sure if I should vote for 25-50 or 50-75 as it fits in both. It was in Hudson and it could have easily been 75. It only took about two and a half hours and we didn't even get all the hydrants. We didn't have a plan, we just drove from one to another.

Our best is 55 doing Bobcam's BS series. We only had a few hours to go that afternoon but we made the most of it. I'm sure we could have done 100+ if we'd had more time. Maybe this summer...

I'm learning to surf and today's small waves in Assateague were just about what I needed. Still working on standing on the board but I'm catching the waves and getting used to the drop. I paddled out last Sunday in bigger waves at high tide and didn't do so well but at least I was out there!
Thanks to all the local surfers out there who have been so supportive of me trying to learn. I definitely appreciate the mellow, tolerant vibe. I have to say, whether it's big waves or small, and whether I'm standing on the board or just getting up on my knees I love being out there. There's just nothing better.

Hamilton Hall Public Art Initiative: ConDuctile
Mar 24—May 4 2013
Hamilton Hall Broad Street Platforms
The Hamilton Hall Public Art Initiative at the University of the Arts presents "ConDuctile," an art installation by Philadelphia artist Matt Ziemke. Featuring two platforms of ceramic sculptures placed outside the University of the Arts' Broad Street facade, the work is inspired by the industrial forms and function of the Reading Viaduct in Philadelphia.
"The Reading Viaduct is one of Philadelphia's remarkable architectural relics. It recalls a period of prosperity and industrial strength. Today the community is facing its revival. It's truly a part of Philadelphia's visual archeology" said Ziemke.
On Saturday, May 4 beginning at 11 a.m., the 54 individual pieces of "ConDuctile," as a work of art about the city, will go into the hands of those that live here. Each ceramic sculpture will be removed from its respective platform by the artist and sold as "Pay What You Wish": the price to be named by the individual interested in purchasing and owning a piece referencing the Reading Viaduct. In the interest of making the work widely available, pieces will be limited to one per Philadelphian. Cash and credit accepted.Hamilton Hall

Was $59.95 NOW $29.95
This is the remote controlled police cruiser that lets enforcers record their own message to broadcast to potential ne'er do wells. With the touch of a button on the roof, officers can record 15 seconds of audio to instruct suspects to "Drop that toy!" or "Stay out of my room!" When played back with the three-channel controller, the recording sounds like an instruction uttered via megaphone by an officer inside the car. The heavy-duty SWAT vehicle has off-road tires for pursuing suspects over rough terrain and eight bright flashing LEDs in the grille and light bar to disperse traffic during high-speed chases. The cruiser also plays a siren and other emergency sounds. Cruiser runs on five AA batteries (included); controller requires two AA batteries. Ages 8 and up. 6" H x 13" W x 7" D. (2 lbs.)

Stylius saidthose icons are awesome.
http://themeforest.net/user/ThemeFuse/portfolio These guys know.
I always thought items thumbnails should contain some information text about the item in order to be accepted. But those icons mentioned are great indeed, thanks for sharing!
By the way, how you guys handle this: you outsource the art/designing part of your projects? I usually spend for the art/design work in my projects a double time than for coding and still I am not happy with the results I am seriously considering an association with an experienced designer. So who does the design/artwork in your projects?
For marketplaces that support a thumbnail hover, the 590×300 preview image sort of becomes an extension of the thumbnail. When I shop, usually I need a thumbnail to stir my interest, but a hover preview image to close the deal (warrant a click). So in this context, the thumbnail really becomes more of a way to capture your attention, but the preview image is the gatekeeper.

AUSTRALIAN cycling bosses are privately relieved that the findings of a federal government review into the sport after its latest doping crisis are not worse.
A report with recommendations - Fairfax Media has been told the document is about 100 pages in length - has been delivered to Australia's federal sports minister, Kate Lundy, and Cycling Australia.
It will be released and published online on Monday morning.
While Cycling Australia president Klaus Mueller would not elaborate on the topic at the end of the five-day national road championships in Ballarat on Sunday, he said the report ''gives us confidence about the future of the sport in Australia''.
The federal government-ordered review into Cycling Australia was first revealed by Fairfax Media in October after Matt White's sacking as national road coach.
A former pro rider, White was axed after his admission to doping when he was a teammate of Lance Armstrong's.
Cycling Australia was thrown into further turmoil when long-time board member and former pro rider Stephen Hodge resigned after confessing to doping.
It is understood the recommendations of Justice Wood, QC, the chairman of the NSW Reform Commission who was charged by Lundy and the Australian Sports Commission to undertake the review, are largely focused on governance.
Separate investigations, being conducted by the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority, are more likely to climax in the naming of names.
''We've seen the report,'' Mueller said of the document completed by Justice Wood.
''I think it gives us confidence about the future of the sport in Australia. And when read carefully I think it demonstrates that those who have investigated us carefully have seen that there is integrity in the program and that many of the recommendations are consistent with the views that we've put forward and things that we've been doing.
''There have been additional inputs that we think are meritorious, but the reality is we need to look properly at the report, and we haven't had a chance to do that. In the days following the official release we'll comment properly on it.''
ASADA is believed to have had long discussions with White, who was also sacked as the head sports director of Australia's professional road cycling team, Orica-GreenEDGE.
Veteran cyclist Stuart O'Grady recently told Fairfax Media that he had also been interviewed by the national anti-doping body and that the organisation wanted to talk to him again. A veteran of the professional peloton, O'Grady has denied ever doping.
Meanwhile, GreenEDGE is conducting its own review into doping after hiring expert Nicki Vance to interview its riders, coaches and administrators, and consider the new team's anti-doping policies.
One outstanding issue is an allegation by former Australian track world champion Martin Vinnicombe that a former coach who still holds a position of power in Australian cycling oversaw doping at the time Vinnicombe was competing.

Lower extremity venography is a test used to see the veins in the leg.
X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation like light, but of higher energy, so they can go through the body to form an image on film. Structures that are dense (such as bone) will appear white, air will be black, and other structures will be shades of gray.
Veins are not normally seen in an x-ray, so a special dye (called contrast) is used to highlight them.
Phlebogram - leg; Venography - leg
This test is usually done in a hospital. You will be asked to lie on an x-ray table. A numbing medicine is applied to the area. You may ask for a sedative if you are anxious about the test.
The health care provider places a needle into a vein in the foot of the leg being looked at, so that an intravenous (IV) line can be inserted. The contrast dye flows through this line into the vein. A tourniquet may be placed on your leg so the dye flows into the deeper veins.
X-rays are taken as the dye flows through the leg.
The catheter is then removed, and the puncture site is bandaged.
You will wear hospital clothing during this procedure. You will be asked to sign a consent form for the procedure. Remove all jewelry from the area being imaged.
Tell the health care provider if you are pregnant, if you have allergies to any medication, which medications you are taking (including any herbal preparations), and if you have ever had any allergic reactions to x-ray contrast material or iodine substance.
The x-ray table is hard and cold, so you may want to ask for a blanket or pillow. You will feel a sharp poke when the intravenous catheter is inserted. As the dye is injected, you may experience a burning sensation.
There may be tenderness and bruising at the site of the injection after the test.
This test is used to identify and locate blood clots in the veins of the legs.
Free flow of the blood through the vein is normal.
Abnormal results may be due to a blockage caused by blood clots, tumors, or inflammation.
There is low radiation exposure; however, most experts feel that the risk of most x-rays is smaller than other daily risks. Pregnant women and children are more sensitive to the risks of the x-ray.
Ultrasound is used more often than this test because it has fewer risks and side effects. MRI and CT scans may also be used to look at the veins in the leg.

11/13 Kansas State Falls At Iowa State, 73-67
11/13 Kansas State Falls At Iowa State, 73-67
Jan. 26, 2013
AMES, Iowa – Senior Will Clyburn collected a double-double, including a game-high 24 points, as Iowa State extended its homecourt winning streak to 18 games with a 73-67 win over No. 11/13 Kansas State before 14,376 fans at Hilton Coliseum.
The win not only pulled Iowa State (14-5, 4-2 Big 12) into a third-place tie with Kansas State (15-4, 4-2 Big 12) and Oklahoma in the conference standings, it also ended the Wildcats' six-game road winning streak and gave the squad back-to-back losses for the first time this season. The six-game winning streak in road games dated back to last season and was the longest such streak since February 2010.
Iowa State scored an opponent-high 73 points and knocked down 11-of-22 from 3-point range in the game, while Kansas State connected on 50.9 percent of its field goals (28-of-55), including 64 percent (16-of-25) in the second half. However, the Cyclones controlled the glass, out-rebounding the Wildcats, 35-28, and posting an 18-2 advantage in second-chance points. The squad is now 1-4 on the season when being out-rebounded, while they are 14-0 when posting a rebounding edge.
In a game that saw nine lead changes and four ties, the Wildcats had numerous chances at end the homecourt streak, taking a 53-51 advantage with 9:08 to play on a lay-up by senior Martavious Irving and holding a 56-55 edge with 7:31 to go on 3-pointer by junior Shane Southwell.
However, the Cyclones always seem to have the right answer, as junior Chris Babb gave the squad the lead for good at 57-56 on a lay-up with 7:13 remaining. The Babb shot ignited an 8-0 run by Iowa State, which pushed the lead to 63-56 with just 5:28 to go.
Junior Will Spradling gave the Wildcats' one-last push with his fourth 3-pointer to close the gap to 68-65 with just over two minutes play. But the team could get no closer, as the Cyclones knocked down 3-of-4 free throws, including a pair by Clyburn, and Korie Lucious made a lay-up down the stretch.
Spradling rebounded from his scoreless effort against Kansas on Tuesday to post a team-high 15 points on 5-of-8 field goals, including 4-of-5 from 3-point range. Senior Rodney McGruder tallied double-digit points for the 10th straight game with 13 points and a team-high seven rebounds in 40 minutes of action, while Southwell added 11 points on 5-of-11 shooting. He has double-figure points in four of the last five games. Sophomore Angel Rodriguez registered nine points and a team-best eight assists with zero turnovers. He now has 25 assists to just three turnovers in his last three games.
Clyburn paced four Cyclones in double figures, including two with double-digit rebounds, with his 24 points on 8-of-16 field goals and 10 rebounds. Freshman Georges Niang scored 15 points on 6-of-11 field goals, while Tyrus McGee and Lucious added 11 and 10 points, respectively. Lucious, the transfer from Michigan State, also dished out a game-high eight assists in the win.
K-State closed the first half on a 12-2 run to take a 27-26 lead at halftime. The Wildcats were down as many as nine in the opening half before the run, which included five points from McGruder and four from Southwell. Despite shooting just 40 percent in the first half, the squad was able to take advantage of seven missed free throws by the Cyclones to get back in the game.
Kansas State returns home on Wednesday night, as the Wildcats play host to Texas (8-10, 0-5 Big 12) before a national television audience on ESPN2 at 7 p.m. CT.
A limited number of single-game tickets are still available for $50 for general admission seating and can be purchased online at www.kstatesports.com/tickets or by phone at (800) 221-CATS.

Inder Verma Receives Spector Prize, Gates Foundation Grant
Inder Verma, a professor in the Laboratory of Genetics and the Irwin Mark Jacobs Chair in Exemplary Life Science, will receive the 2010 Spector Prize in honor of his work in developing an HIV-based vector for use in gene therapy.
Awarded by the department of Ophthalmology at Columbia University and co-sponsored this year by the department of Genetics, the prize recognizes the contributions of Abraham Spector, the Malcolm P. Aldrich Emeritus Research Professor who was a leading figure in eye research.
Verma is the third recipient of the prize, which is intended to honor outstanding basic research that has made fundamental contributions to elucidating cell biology and that provides the basis for designing approaches for controlling and curing disease.
In related news, Verma was among a group of researchers who received a $100,000 grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in October to develop a mouse model of human malaria. The model will serve as a new tool for evaluating strategies to fight the disease, including testing critically needed new anti-malarial drugs and vaccines as well as testing for long-term toxicity of anti-malarial therapies.

Get the Recipe
When Christmas time rolls around, I thank my Wisconsinite friends for schooling me in the ways of the Kringle. This tender, buttery, fruit or nut-filled pastry takes its name from the Danish word for pretzel. But make no mistake, it's not your supermarket Danish.
And though traditional recipes typically involve cutting butter into a yeast dough and can take up to three days to prepare, a friend shared her mom's recipe for a simpler kringle dough that's made with butter, sour cream, and flour. It turns out a delicate and delicious pastry in a fraction of the time it takes to make a yeasted kringle, making a perfect choice for a Christmas (or New Year's) breakfast.

For the first time ever this summer, the Grand Canyon Railway (GCR) welcomes children ages two to 15 years old to its Observation Dome-class cars. In addition, the GCR debuts a sixth class of service in Pullman cars for an affordable $59 for adults and $29 for children round-trip.
From the day's start to finish, guests will be captivated with the splendor of the passing landscapes of the Colorado Plateau and wildlife during a 65-mile journey to the south rim of the Grand Canyon. Prior to boarding the train, an interactive Wild West show gives guests a taste of history and sets the stage for entertainment throughout the trip, which includes strolling musicians and knowledgeable train attendants. Children aboard the train will also enjoy coloring books and puzzles throughout the ride.
Guests may choose from six classes of service, from vintage 1920s Pullman class to varying levels of Coach, Observation Dome to Luxury Parlor. The Pullman class is the newest class of cars to be offered to guests of the Grand Canyon Railway. Fares are an affordable $59 for adults and $29 for children ages 15 and younger. On the first Saturday of each month through September, guests may experience the Grand Canyon Railway by a steam engine, which runs on recycled waste vegetable oil and offers all six classes of service. A special steam run on September 21 is also available to honor the train's 112th birthday.
Observation Dome-class service allows passengers to ride in a 1950s era glass-enclosed streamliner with sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding countryside in the comfort of padded high-back chairs while enjoying light refreshments, snacks and a sparkling wine toast on the return trip. Should riders wish to experience a different class of service while riding the Grand Canyon Railway, upgrades are also available for one direction of travel. Upgrading to a different service must be scheduled prior to boarding the train.
Trains depart daily at 9:30 a.m. from the Railway's historic 1908 depot in Williams, Arizona and return at 3:30 p.m. with a three-and-a-half-hour period to explore South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Overnight packages and in-park tours are also available featuring Maswik Lodge accommodations. From now through October fares for the Observation Dome-class round-trip rides are offered at $170 for adults and $140 for children ages 2 to 15 years old. These fares also apply to the steam locomotive excursions on the first Saturday.

Chinese Fortune Calendar
2010 - Year of Tiger
2016 is Year of the Monkey and it will arrive on February 4, 2016. But Chinese New Year Day is on February 8, 2016. This is because Chinese New Year is from Chinese Lunar calendar. Chinese Zodiac signs are from Chinese Astrology Calendar.
The Year 2016 is the 4713th Chinese year. It's a Red Monkey year.
What Is Chinese Zodiac
Chinese Sheng Xiao 生肖 ("birth resembling" literally) is also known as Chinese Zodiac. 12 animals, each with unique characteristics, were chosen to represent the years. Every person born in the year of the assigned animal is said to have personalities and traits resembling that animal. The 12 animals in Chinese Zodiac are: Rat 鼠, Ox 牛, Tiger 虎, Rabbit 兔, Dragon 龍, Snake 蛇, Horse 馬, Sheep 羊, Monkey 猴, Rooster 雞, Dog 狗, and Pig 豬. For Chinese Astrology and Horoscope analysis, the 12 zodiac animals are also assigned to the month, day and hour. Read More About Chinese Zodiac for details.
This site provides the zodiac analysis of personality, compatibility, fate, and career choices. It describes how you perceive yourself, or how others perceive you at a glace. Although it may seem very general, its purpose is to provide the tendency of your perfections and flaws, friends and foes, and the future trend.
Origin of Chinese Zodiac
|The history of Chinese Zodiac can be traced back two thousand years ago to the Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD). As most of the people were illiterate in ancient China, 12 animals that influenced people's life the most were chosen to represent the 12 time periods of a day as they were easier to use than the official terms (see More About Chinese Zodiac). Then, the use of the 12 animals to represent the hour also applied to the day, month, and year. As a year representation, the animal sign changed around the Chinese Lunar New Year, and people born in that year are said to have personalities resembling that animal.

Did you know it is more common for Chinese to ask "what is your Zodiac Animal" than "how old are you"? It is a much more polite way to ask, and it is more acceptable when asked. You may be surprised that people are willing to tell you his/her Zodiac Animal but not the age, even though we know it is very easy to look up the Zodiac Animal and figure out the age – unless someone looks more than 12 years younger or older than his/her age. Give this a try next time.

Social Justice Awards presented to university community
The University of South Carolina's Martin Luther King Jr. Day Committee recently presented its Social Justice Awards to three members of the university community who exemplify the philosophies of Dr. King through random or ongoing acts of community service, social justice or racial reconciliation.
The faculty award, recognizing outstanding accomplishments in teaching, research or creative work, service and outreach, went to Dr. Saundra Glover, associate dean for health disparities and social justice in the Arnold School of Public Health. Glover, cited for her consistent commitment to educational outreach and research aimed at eliminating disparities, recently collaborated with investigators from the Medical University of South Carolina and South Carolina State University to establish a $7.2 million Center of Economic Excellence (CoEE) in Prostate Cancer.
Staff and student awards recognize outstanding accomplishments in community service, social-justice outreach and racial reconciliation.
Attorney Pamela Robinson, director of the School of Law's Pro Bono Program, was presented the staff award. She was nominated for her long-term commitment to helping people who cannot afford legal representation, including her volunteer efforts with Richland County Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA), the South Carolina Bar Pro Bono Program and the Children's Justice Act Task Force. She is also faculty advisor to the Women in Law program.
Anna Walton, a senior biology and Spanish major, received the student Social Justice Award. She is president of Amigos Buen Samaritano, a student organization that assists the West Columbia Good Samaritan clinic in coordinating volunteers and providing assistance with computers and raising funds. She was nominated for her commitment to improving the quality and access to public health within the Hispanic community.
