the guardian newspaper in praise of rosemary sutcliff
Rosemary Sutcliff's 1954 children's classic The Eagle of the Ninth (still in print more than 50 years on) is the first of a series of novels in which Sutcliff, who died in 1992, explored the cultural borderlands between the Roman and the British worlds – "a place where two worlds met without mingling" as she describes the British town to which Marcus, the novel's central character, is posted.
Marcus is a typical Sutcliff hero, a dutiful Roman who is increasingly drawn to the British world of "other scents and sights and sounds; pale and changeful northern skies and the green plover calling". This existential cultural conflict gets even stronger in later books like The Lantern Bearers and Dawn Wind, set after the fall of Rome, and has modern resonance. But Sutcliff was not just a one-trick writer.
The range of her novels spans from the Bronze Age and Norman England to the Napoleonic wars. Two of her best, The Rider of the White Horse and Simon, are set in the 17th century and are marked by Sutcliff's unusually sympathetic (for English historical novelists of her era) treatment of Cromwell and the parliamentary cause. Sutcliff's finest books find liberal-minded members of elites wrestling with uncomfortable epochal changes. From Marcus Aquila to Simon Carey, one senses, they might even have been Guardian readers.

Students may pursue major and minor programs offered in the Department of Kinesiology and Health Studies that will prepare them both for entry-level professional careers and graduate study in Kinesiology, Exercise Science, Athletic Training and Public Health. In addition, our curriculum prepares students for future study in the allied health professions (physical therapy, physician assistant, and occupational therapy).
Major in Athletic Training
The B.S. degree in Athletic Training is offered to students who desire to either enter the work environment or to pursue graduate education in this field. Certified Athletic Trainers work under the direct supervision of a licensed physician and perform a wide variety of services to the physically active population. Their primary responsibilities include, injury prevention, recognition and evaluation, management, first aid, and rehabilitation of injuries, organization, administration, education, and counseling. Certified Athletic Trainers are employed in such settings as high schools, colleges and universities, orthopedic clinics, professional sports, industrial settings, and physician's offices. This program will require some off campus travel to various clinical sites. Successful completion of this program will allow the student to be eligible for the national certification examination administered by the Board of Certification. Students interested in this major should contact the Athletic Training Program Director for more information and other requirements regarding this program. Major courses include: KHS 216, KHS 271, KHS 273, KHS 275, KHS 277, KHS 285, KHS 287, KHS 304, KHS 306, KHS 320, KHS 322, KHS 390, KHS 395, KHS 400, KHS 403, KHS 407, KHS 423 (42 hours). Allied courses required for this major include: BIO 100 or 111 and PSY 211/ MAT 111(6 hours). Total required hours: 48.
Those interested in the Athletic Training Program will begin the application process and pre-requisites to be admitted to the program during their first semester. The application process consists of submitting a portfolio, fulfilling academic requirements, and completing program requirements, technical standards and health care standards.
A student must complete the application process in order to be considered for acceptance into the Athletic Training Program. Completion of the application process does not guarantee admission into the Athletic Training Program. Students not accepted into the Athletic Training Program can continue their education in another major of the Kinesiology and Health Studies Department. Students are not officially admitted until the spring semester of their second year upon successful completion of all requirements.
Admission to the Athletic Training Program at Georgetown College is competitive and should not be confused with admissions to the College. Athletic Training room hours (800) will be required once admitted to the program. The program requirements that must be met prior to official application are:
- Must have earned a minimum of 30 credit hours of college credit.
- Minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale.
- Completion (or in progress) of BIO 100 or 111 and KHS 216 with a grade of B or better.
- Current CPR and First Aid Certification.
- Interview with the Athletic Training Program Admissions Committee.
Students with any deficiencies in the above criteria can be admitted at the discretion of the Athletic Training Program Admission Committee.

Topic: Tarceva working to stop growth of my advanced IHC
I haven't posted in a long time, I am now 2 years after diagnosis with advanced inoperable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Standard chemo regimens worked for a while and then were ineffective; then was on a clinical trial that unfortunately did not work. The only therapy left for me was to try drugs that may help but as of yet have no robust clinical data proving efficacy.
In February my oncologist started me on Tarceva (ertonilib), an epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor. It is administered orally once per day. It is currently used for treatment of advanced pancreatic and non small cell lung cancers, but has been tried a bit with cholangio patients. Well, it is working to keep me alive so far. Tumours are stable; will be scanned again next month to see how things are doing. My health is ok as well. Not great! But good for someone in our position.
If your doctors don't have any help for you, you may want to try this drug. Keep in mind it may not be covered by insurance, if not it is 3 to 4 grand a month.
Good luck to all and God bless,

Indie Horror Film Descends On The Jersey Shore
Lights! Camera! Bloody shovel?! A new independent horror movie is being filmed at the Jersey Shore. It's called Gravedigger and features a bevy of talent both in front and behind the lens.
The movie was primarily shot in Point Pleasant Beach and will wrap next month in Asbury Park after some additional shooting. According to an early press release, the summary tells us its sure to be a nail-biter.
Gravedigger tells the story of Steve Borden who is a brilliant, young criminal defense attorney. As junior partner in a local, high end law firm, he makes his living defending the indefensible. When a case gone horribly wrong haunts him, Borden's conscience begins to send him into a guilt-ridden spiral. Police Chief George Orkin is the town's top cop. With more bodies turning up buried, District Attorney Mike Ruble suspects Orkin's ties to crime boss Charles Muzzatti may be the answer to the case. Now, Orkin must deal with his own eroding sense of integrity to keep both sides of the law off his back. As paranoia rises and Borden, Orkin, Ruble & Muzzatti try to pin the murders on each other, could another, more sinister force be hunting them? Codes, morals and misguided views of justice collide when the law, the mob and the Gravedigger face off in a bloody battle that will darken the survivor's souls forever. But will burying the guilty, bury the Gravedigger's own guilt?
Over the last 11 years or so, there have been a number of productions based at the shore. Some major and minor film and TV projects. But what's the appeal? Gravedigger director and Long Branch native Doug Bollinger tells us "the color of the backdrop is perfect. There's everything here in one place for all occasions'. I think there's a lot of people checking out Red Bank and Asbury Park because of their art culture. There are also a lot of professionals from New York who are migrating down here. So it seems like a good place for a good story."
Bollinger says "we used several locations in Point Beach and had full cooperation from the community. Everyone wanted to lend a hand in the making of the production."
Upon completion, the producers plan to submit it to local and national film festivals as well as horror fests. They will then be seeking some kind of distribution – either direct to DVD or in a Netflix streaming capacity.
The film is Produced by Keith Collins. Executive Producers John Stoerback, Michael Levine & Jeff Quinlan. Written by Joseph & Billy Pepitone. The film stars Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal ("Guns N Roses"), Jim Leyritz (Former "NY Yankee"), Brian McRae (Former "NY Met","KC Royals"), Annette Dziamba ("The Apprentice"), Gregg Valentino (TLC's "The Man Whose Arms Exploded"), Billy Sample (Former "NY Yankee"), Gervase Peterson ("Survivor, Season One"), Brandon Ruckdashel ("Co-ed Confidential"), Emilio Masella (Oxygen's "Love Games"), Gary Garver ("formerly from the Howard Stern Show"), Mark Pinkhasovich ( NBC's "The Biggest Loser"), Keith Collins ("Stuck in the Middle", "The Meat Puppet"), April Hunter ("WCW", "TNA"), John Stoerback ("The Next Vigilante"), Theresa Galeani ("Cross the Line", "I am Legend"), Asbury Park's Joe Sernio ("All My Children"). Cindy Fox ("The Naked Cowgirl"), Adam ("Speed bag Scissorhands") Salomon.

7 Fab Tips on How to Dress On-Trend for Pennies
You can look like you walked out of a magazine's fashion shoot or off a red carpet and spend almost nothing!
I'll be honest with you; I love fashion. While I do adore clothing and accessories and jewelry and shoes, I hate the thought of spending a lot of money on any one item. My closets are stuffed with Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Ferragamo, Prada, Kooba, Chloe and other expensive labels. But here's the thing, I don't think I've spent more than $20 on one of those item. I once bought an YSL bag for $6, a Chloe Paddington bag for $2 and Prada driving shoes for $8. I'm going to share my super shopping secrets on how to dress like a million dollar baby for much less. You can find bargains online and in stores, it's just a matter of patience and a penchant for hunting for a deal.
1. Know your size before you shop online
Before you shop online for an item, hit the store that carries the brand or designer and find the size and style that fits you. One brand's size 6 may be another brand's size 4, so try it on first.
2. Online bargain hunting tools
You can save a lot of money shopping online. You can set up sale alerts for brands you love on ShopItToMe.com. Sign up with them for exclusive sales on your favorite brands. Pick up promotion codes and online sales coupons on RetailMeNot.com. Scoop up deals on BradsDeals.com, HauteLook.com, RueLaLa.com, Ideeli.com, Fab.com and Gilt.com. Finding that deal that makes you swoon over the tiny price tag takes patience and time. It's worth signing up to a lot of sites so you can check out their sale emails.
My absolute favorite bargain site is eBay.com. I once bought a pair of brand new, never worn Ferragamo boots for $9.99. How to get the best deal on eBay? First, set up an alert on what you love—J Brand Jeans, Kate Spade shoes, cameo rings—whatever it is that you want and you'll get a daily email with those exact items on auction in eBay. Secondly, give yourself a price limit when you bid. A bargain isn't a bargain when you've spent over your limit.
How to get a dress for $0.99 and more up next!

Clippard's struggles undo Roark's bid for win
Reliever allows four Angels runs after starter's 6 2/3 shutout innings
WASHINGTON -- All the hype at Nationals Park was about the meeting between Nationals left fielder Bryce Harper and Angels center fielder Mike Trout on Monday night, but the night belonged to Raul Ibanez, who had a three-run double as a pinch-hitter and helped the Angels defeat the Nationals, 4-2.
The Nationals had a 1-0 lead going into the eighth inning when the Angels went ahead against reliever Tyler Clippard. Albert Pujols led off the inning and hit a routine ground ball to shortstop Ian Desmond, who booted the ball for his eighth error of the season. Pujols then easily stole second base after Ian Stewart struck out. After Howie Kendrick singled and Brennan Boesch popped up to Desmond, Erick Aybar singled to right field, scoring Pujols.
Chris Iannetta walked to load the bases before Ibanez came up. One would have thought that manager Matt Williams would have brought in left-hander Xavier Cedeno to face Ibanez, but Williams says Clippard is his eighth-inning reliever and added that Clippard has a good track record against lefties. In fact, left-handed hitters are hitting under .200 against him.
"So I want to stay with him there," Williams said. "I want him to be our guy that shuts down that eighth inning. Tonight wasn't his night, though."
It looked like a great move at first. Ibanez swung and missed at the first pitch -- a changeup -- for a strike. But Clippard threw the same pitch, and Ibanez hit it to left-center field for a three-run double. Desmond was charged with his second error of the inning when his throw allowed Ibanez to advance to third base on the hit.
"It was a good changeup [to Ibanez]. The first one was in the same exact spot, swung through it. He is a guy that traditionally hunts fastballs, and I knew that," Clippard said. "I felt like I made a good pitch [with the second one]. I have to go and look at it. There was something where I was tipping, or you have to tip your cap to him. He made a good swing. Those things happen."
"I was not looking for an offspeed pitch," Ibanez said. "At that point, I was just trying to hit a line drive up the middle, hit whatever he threw. He's got a very good changeup, but a very good breaking ball, too, and a good fastball, so he's a tough pitcher. You have to respect his fastball. You can't just sit on one pitch."
Does Williams have any concerns about Desmond and Clippard, who are off to slow starts? The answer is no. Williams felt the first error by Desmond was a tough play, but Desmond said he is a Major League shortstop and should have made the first play.
"It wasn't that tough," Desmond said.
Desmond leads the Major Leagues in errors. He simply said he is not making the plays he needs to make.
"That's what I'm most mad about. Clippard did his job, and I wasn't able to help him out," Desmond said.
Williams said Clippard hasn't found his changeup this season, and he wasn't able to get the right-handed-hitting Iannetta.
"He's been a little inconsistent, certainly, with the location on his fastball, and the concerning thing there is that he had the righty-righty matchup and walked Iannetta," Williams said. "So we didn't help him out in the infield, either."
Right-hander Tanner Roark started for the Nationals and was outstanding. He didn't allow a run in 6 2/3 innings.
Los Angeles had opportunities to score against Roark in the second and third innings, but couldn't send anyone home. In the second, the Angels had the bases loaded with two outs, but starting pitcher Garrett Richards struck out to end the threat.
An inning later, Los Angeles had runners on first and second with nobody out, but Pujols hit into a double play, and Stewart flied out to center fielder Denard Span to end the inning.
"I felt like first-pitch strikes was the big thing for me tonight. The sinker was working well tonight. I kept attacking," Roark said.
Richards also was strong. He lasted six innings and allowed one run on one hit. The one run occurred in the fourth inning, without Washington collecting a hit. Richards lost control of his pitches and walked the first two hitters he faced. Then Richards hit Jayson Werth on the arm with a pitch to load the bases. Adam LaRoche followed and hit into a fielder's choice, but Span scored on the play.
"He was effectively wild today," Span said. "He had high velocity. His ball was moving a lot," Span said.
Desmond homered off Angels closer Ernesto Frieri in the ninth for the Nats' final run.
With the loss, the Nationals dropped their record to 11-9.

Despite fans' verbal punishment, WPIAL football refs dedicated to craft
Angry football fans have questioned Mike Jarosinski's eyesight, and others have worried about his ability to rest, wondering how he could sleep at night? He sleeps fine.
"You ignore most of it," he said, "and obviously you don't react to any of it."
Bashing referees has become somewhat trendy. The tired taunts are heard by all who wear black-and-white stripes. But this season came a new barb Jarosinski had never heard. A taunt that his crew laughed off, but the sentiment had him "honked off."
From the crowd someone shouted: "They must be replacement officials."
Hardly. Jarosinski, like many officials overseeing WPIAL, City League and District 6 games, has walked sidelines for decades. Jarosinski has for 37 years. They're gluttons for punishment who get a little money and very little sympathy on Friday nights.
"Most guys get into it because they enjoy the game," said Jarosinski, secretary of the Alle-Kiski Football Officials Chapter. A Springdale resident who works for Graybar Electric Company on Pittsburgh's North Side, Jarosinski is among them.
Calling them replacements would be wrong — with one exception.
George Trout actually was one of the NFL's replacement officials. Trout, 41, worked four preseason and four regular-season games, including two in one week. He was the field judge when the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears met at Lambeau Field. This Friday he'll work the Albert Gallatin at Laurel Highlands matchup.
"It's the first time I've done a high school game in a bunch of years," said Trout, a Penn Township resident with 23 years of experience, including six NCAA Division I FCS seasons. "There's nothing better than a Friday night Western Pennsylvania game."
Adjusting to NFL speed was a major challenge, but the replacements did their best, said Trout, who ignored any negative media coverage. But whether you're wearing back-and-white stripes at Lambeau or Laurel Highlands, there's one fact that's undeniable.
"Officiating can be a thankless task," he said.
For some, officiating is a way to stay connected with a sport they love. Some are former standout athletes, like Rick Druschel, who played guard for the Steelers in 1974. Some are second-generation officials such as Jarosinski, whose father also wore stripes. Or even third-generation, like Mike Burrell, 31, who followed his father and grandfather.
Nobody's getting rich on Friday nights, which pays $85 for a Class AAAA game and a little less for lower classifications. For some, officiating can become a career, but few start out with that expectation.
"When you sign your son up for pee wee football, do you hope he makes it to the NFL?" Jarosinski said. "It's kind of that same scenario. It would be great someday, but let's take one step at a time."
Western Pennsylvania has a strong football history. It also has a strong history of football officials, with five natives currently working Sundays. Jeff and Jerry Bergman of Wexford, Gene and Tony Steratore of Washington, and Tom Stabile of Natrona Heights are NFL officials. This area also has supplied a significant number of college referees, with most or all of them having started here on the local level.
"We have a lot of guys from Western Pennsylvania who have been very successful," said Brad Rauber, a talented official who has begun climbing the ladder. "It helps to have those guys to look up to, and be able to pick up the phone and ask them questions. They're always willing to help."
Along with high schools, Rauber, a referee, officiates NCAA Division I FCS, and Division III under the guidance of Gene Steratore Jr., who oversees officials in the Presidents' Athletic Conference. Rauber also officiates Division I women's basketball. This weekend, he will referee Friday in Uniontown and Saturday in Kentucky for a college game at Thomas More.
Climbing the officiating ladder requires several things. The official must be skilled. They almost always need help from somebody above. They have to be willing to travel almost anywhere. And they need a very understanding family.
Jarosinski, Rauber and Burrell are members of Class AAAA crews. Similar to the way officials move from working youth games to junior high, junior varsity and varsity, those working high school games successfully often are promoted to Class AAAA.
There are 15 local chapters of officials covering WPIAL and City League football games, and they're all searching for new members to cover youth football and eventually varsity.
The PIAA has four test-taking meetings each year, but recruitment has slowed.
"We're almost in crisis mode right now," said Rauber, 42. "When I first started officiating, I was the youngest guy there. It's been 20 years now and I'm still one of the youngest guys officiating. It's getting to be an old industry."
The constant criticism could scare some away.
"It's not for everybody," Trout said. "You have to have a certain mentality that you're going to get criticized. But you have to stay professional and do the best you can."

The Throne looks pretty baller imo, especially when it's modded. It lends well to liquid cooling because of all the space, and well, it has the potential to be... as i stated before... baller. Reply

I really don't know why half the enthusiast cases look like they were designed by adolescent boys :( Reply

JDG1980 - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkYou mentioned the Raven RV04, but SilverStone has had the Fortress FT04 on sale for a couple weeks now, which has a very similar layout but should offer lower noise (with acoustic padding) and better fit and finish. Any chance we'll be seeing a review on that soon? Reply
SergeyN - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkI want SilverStone FT04 review too! Reply
MiLuong - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkOhh! I saw this case's debut at PAX, and it's actually really a cool case. It's very large, and offers plenty of room for a sweet liquid cooled system. They had it modded, and it looked slick. Even without liquid cooling, there is plenty of air circulation space in the Throne case - room for multiple graphics cards, plenty of power, good cable management, etc. Un-modded, I still think the design is sleek, but I guess that is all a matter of preference - some say it's ugly, some like it... opinion. Anyhow, great gaming case.
As the article mentions, dust will be an issue with just about ANY case, and so it's up to the user to keep that clean. I've found it's a pretty simple case to blow out on occasion, and keep the dust down, but, like I said ~ ANY case is going to get dust.
Good Article. Thanks. Reply
Spydermag68 - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI just cannot get past the look of the front of the case. It just screams don't buy me. Reply
Bonesdad - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkLooks kinda Cylon to me..."Don't Buy Me!!!"...by your command. Reply
Subyman - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI don't understand the market position. For people that need this large of a case for E-ATX, quad sli, with water-cooling, and so forth, they are already spending $3K+ on gear, so why save $50-100 on a case? It would be good for that anyway though, since it only supports one 280mm radiator. I see most people that purchase this case being the type that buy the biggest there is to put a standard ATX motherboard and one GPU in it, but bigger is better right? Reply
glugglug - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI'm thinking of getting a case like this for my next build because it is going to have a slew of drives for use as a whole-home DVR. I'm thinking 4x4TB drives to start with (8TB storage with mirroring), plus boot SSD + blu-ray + SD card reader = half those drive bays filled immediately, good to have room to expand. Reply
Grok42 - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkWhy would you want your main box to be your storage box? Build a dedicated server for file storage. Reply
ZPrime - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkYou really don't need 8TB of storage for WHDVR unless you are basically recording everything on TV. I have a 3TB mirror (using a pair of WD Red) and Media Center tells me that using *most* of that 3TB (I think I have it leaving a few GB free), it's over 300 hours *of HD*.
Unless you are just saving the crap forever... but at that point, you can move it off to a NAS, which you can keep in the basement/closet/other room, where heat and noise don't matter. For HTPC, the sweet spot is a smaller system that is as quiet as you can get it. I'm using a Silverstone Grandia GD06 -- similar to the GD05 that Anandtech reviewed, but it has hotswap SATA bays in the front which make replacement of a failed drive from your mirror MUCH easier (the Grandias are a pain in the ass to work in otherwise). This way if I lose a drive, I RMA it and insert the replacement without any downtime to the machine. Reply
Grok42 - Sunday, August 04, 2013 - linkI personally have almost 1TB of just music and audio books. I have kids and you wouldn't believe how much just their movies take up and they watch them dozens of times per year. Most of the stuff I own are DVDs I ripped into ISO format. All in all I'm using about 4.5TB on my media server. That said, I'm with you that too many people save too much junk they will never watch again. Most of my non-kid stuff is old rips from media I wanted to throw in the attic and I don't watch it much if ever.
NONE of this is in my living room. I can't imagine why I would want it there. I also don't want it generating heat in any of the boxes I use daily. I put all of that on my house server in the closet that also handles SVN, FTP, HTTP and other duties. I have gigabit networking to most rooms but my main TV can't have a wire run. I use a wireless N bridge that has never had issues other than a slight ~3 second buffering when playing a video. I recently upgraded to AC and it is unbelievably good.
Again, why would anyone that has a ton of video/audio want to store this on their main workstation? I built my server new for less than $400 + HDs. Most have a basic system they could use for basically free. Reply
piroroadkill - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkWorld's most hideous DVR.
If I needed that many drives in the machine next to my TV, Fractal Design Define Mini, maybe, but even that is too big. This thing? A godawful, open mesh, noisy beast. God no. Reply
mwildtech - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkOnly in Texas.. and well... yeah.. Reply
DanNeely - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkA case like this makes tri-SLI on an ATX board easier too; it's not just EATX builds that benefit. If you get a board with x16 slots at positions 1, 4, and 7, you've got an empty slot between each pair of cards to improve airflow and cooling. While there are atx cases with an 8th slot cover to let you do the same, most of them will push the bottom card up against the PSU obstructing it.
I don't think this case is in play for significant water cooling at all. There doesn't appear to be enough clearance between the mobo and the top fans to fit a radiator, without dremeling out the 3.5" cage, you're not going to fit one in the front, and a larger PSU would obstruct the bottom fan mount. The giant door fan should help a lot if you're running multiple air cooled cards; which I think is where this is being targetted. Reply

WhitneyLand - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkAre these giant case articles less popular on AT nowadays? They seem so irrelevant and anachronistic.
@Dustin: Love your writing and articles. This is not a criticism of an author.
I know some people still want to read these, but what's the big picture trend here with the AT audience? Reply
ShieTar - Thursday, August 22, 2013 - linkPersonally, I tend to be most interested in the two extreme options: The Mini-ITX on the one hand, for Media-Player solutions or just On-the-Desk-Systems for friends who need very little computing power. And on the other hand the very big towers, for my own gaming system which just sits next to my desk and gets opened up and fed with new hardware about once a year.
So, from an enthusiast point of view, there is nothing anachronistic about giant cases. They give you plenty of options for your build, and as show in this review, once you put an overclocking/SLI setup together, they can quickly become the most silent option too. Reply

warpuck - Thursday, December 18, 2014 - linkLooks good, that is until you try to install 280 radiator in it. Put it in the top? Nope. Put in the front ? Nope. HDD cage is riveted. OK lets see inside the cage then, maybe. Nope. Outside cage? Sell my 690s and get something shorter? Nope fake 3mm screws. OK then a thin 240 in the top maybe if you can live without heat spreaders on your memory. Looked good up to the point after I put the extreme 9 in. OK time for the Dremel tool, saber saw and drill. So the only thing that fits in there handily is a 140 radiator on the exhaust. Reply
Moyer1666 - Wednesday, December 30, 2015 - linkYou've seem to have done a terrible job with cable management. I think that's the problem you're running into. This case has plenty of grommets and mounts for zip ties to do some great cable management, but you aren't taking advantage of it. It looks like you simply threw everything in without trying, and said it was a bad case for organization. Reply

Following centuries of speculation about its ethnic origins, a multiracial group in southern Appalachia known as the Melungeons may finally have some real answers about where its people come from.
Kevin Jones, a biologist at the University of Virginia's College at Wise, completed a two-year study of Melungeon DNA and announced the results to the Melungeon Heritage Association this summer. Among 150 people studied, 5 percent of Melungeon DNA is of African descent, 5 percent is Native American and 90 percent is Eurasian, according to Wired News. Previously, it was thought that European men had intermarried with Native Americans and African-Americans to produce the Melungeons. Now Jones plans to research genetic links between Melungeons and unusual diseases, such as familial Mediterranean fever.

I use this cream at night and in the morning. It is light enough to use under your foundation. I am almost 50 (UGH!!!) and I have tried other products, less expensive and more expensive, but always seem to come back to this cream. Perfect for mature skin...
- I can see the results. Review by Sal
Quality Price Value
I bought this for my mother for her to use in conjunction with the hyaluronic serum. I noticed a big difference immediately. She's never been one to take care of her mature skin. She suffers from dull , dry skin and this has already improved the elasticity and reduced her wrinkles. She has quite sensitive skin and both are gentle enough for everyday/night use.
- Great Night Time Firming Cream Review by steffd
Value Quality Price
I have been using this cream, in combination with Kate Somerville Retinol Serum and Vitamin C with Hyaluronic Acid Serum and have seen positive results. I have purchased twice and find that the cream is light and a little goes a long way and it absorbs fairly easily when I take the time to massage it in. I am (UGH!) 69, and have found this really does show results, but I hate the ritualistic night time regimen, which seems to take forever. I only use this at night - I like to just lightly moisturize in the morning to minimize the time it takes to prepare for the day. All in all, a great product and will continue to use. I also really love the pore minimizer - it is fantastic and results come very quickly!

This product is amazing! I can't say I love the way it feels on my face when it first goes one, but then I don't notice it at all .. and more importantly, IT WORKS! I work a lot of overnight shifts and my skin gets so dry and "saggy" and the minute you put this stuff on, it makes my skin look brand new and healthy!
- Best in the Southwest for dry skin relief! Review by BWA
Price Value Quality
Living in the SW USA my skin is prone to be very dry and textured feeling almost all the time. WR Face Cream too care of all that for me. Over night application results in an amazing feel of super smooth and soft surface removing wrinkles and parching.
I have tried numerous face moisturizers over the years, and this is the only one that has so many beneficial qualities. For 57 bucks there is no other brand that ever gets close... don't rely on other comments that are negitive on this site, try it for yourself, you will not be dissapointed. I'm 60 years old and a male.

I am well pleased with this product. My skin texture was extremly dry and wrinkled. With the calming botanticals of the White Tea, my skin is hydrated, smooth and no wrinkles. I catch myself looking in the mirror. Many thanks for this oustanding product.

- Fantastic Line of Products Review by Nancy

I have been using the entire line of Wrinkle Revenge for over a year and have seen dramatic results. I have oily skin and this moisturizer absorbs quickly and leaves my skin silky smooth. I switched from Eminence and have never looked back. This is not an overnight sensation, but with continued and consistent use, you will see a big difference. I am very happy with this line of products. I just wish it was a little less expensive.

I have very dry allergic skin and have been using Clinique DDML for 20 years, but it wasn't moisturizing like it used to. I tried this and immediately my skin felt better. I have not had any allergic symptoms. I do think it is very expensive and because it is so thick, it barely lasts me two months. But, I really love it.

I've only used this product for a week, but I am impressed! I'm 32 and still have somewhat oily skin, and the facial cream hasn't broke me out. I haven't used it enough to say how much it helps with fine lines, but I can say that my skin does look more toned and moisturized.

During the winter I get really really really dry skin where I need to use a moisturizer on the dry part. I started using wrinkle revenge all over instead of the dry areas when I realized that it's not making my face oily during the day. Soaks in well, feels great... a new favorite product!

I have been using the DERMAdoctor wrinkle revenge facial cream and eye balm for only a couple of weeks and am already seeing improvement! I am 54 years old and definitely have visible signs of aging. I had been using a different product line for a while and hadn't noticed much change at all. These two DERMAdoctor products seemed to "plump out" and smooth out my skin noticeably in a relatively short period of time. THANK YOU!!! BTW, are you planning to add a facial mask to this line? I will be first in line to purchase it if you do!!
- Fabulous-- Except Review by TKW, Albuquerque, NM
Quality Price Value
I have used Kinerase for over a year. It really did great things for my face (living in such an arid climate); however, due to the expense of Kinerase, I thought I would try wrinkle revenge. This is a fabulous product, better than what I expected; the texture of my skin changed right away. It works better for me than Kinerase does. However, it seems you need to use quite a bit (although it is think, I can't get it to spread easily)to get all over the face. Therefore, it does not last long, which makes it even more expensive. Whereas Kinerase lasts me about 2 1/2 months this lasts half the time.

This stuff works FAST. I'm 50, with good skin and mild wrinkles to start with. Even so, I noticed a real difference in about a week. In contrast to another reviewer, I find a little goes a long way. Not greasy, and leaves my skin soft. I use it only at night. I believe I'm on my fourth jar.
- Not for Oily Review by New York City
Quality Price Value
While this facial cream feels very nice and is not overly heavy (it is thick), i found it to be too moisturizing for my Combination/Very Oily T-zone Skin. I have a few sample packets so i am going to save them for colder weather when my skin could use the extra moisture; but just too heavy otherwise. I LOVE the WR Eye Balm though - I hope DERMAdoctor will come up with a Lotion version for us more Oily skins!!
- Breaks me out Review by ND, Phoenix/AZ
Quality Price Value
I had such high hopes for this product since it is expensive, but unfortunately it is causing me to break out! I have combination skin and while I only use it sparingly it's just not working for me. I do love that my skin feels so soft and its texture feels and looks great with this product if it just weren't for those darn pimples it is causing me! I now use it as nighttime treatment so I can reap the anti wrinkle benefits of it for 8 hours and then wash my face in the morning and apply a more appropriate face lotion for all day wear and under my makeup! I would say that Wrinkle Revenge is not for oily, acne prone skin but rather for dry, not sensitive skin.
- It's ok Review by IN

I also have found this cream is too heavy for me to use in the daytime. I get shiny and oily really quickly and I break out when I use my foundation over it. I use it overnight but still wake up oily. This cream seems to sit on top of my skin. Probably best for dry skin types - we need an antiaging cream for oily/combo skin please!!!
- Great product. Review by Susan, San Jose, CA

About 6 mos ago I began using a prescription retin a cream. About 2 mos ago I began applying the Wrinkle Revenge on top of my retin A cream- waiting 15-20 minutes between applications. My 50 year old- skin looks better than it did 5 yrs ago! I am going to delay starting Botox it looks so good. Tease Zone takes care of any oiliness. Amazing!
- Awesome Cream, Would Recommend! Review by ACD, Corona, CA USA
Quality Price Value
I purchased this product after reading the many great reviews on this website as well as my positive experiences with other products from the DERMAdoctor line. I also purchased it in combination with the eye cream (combo pack) and I am so happy that I did! From Day One my face appeared softer, brighter, firmer, glowing even! Product goes a long way, so only a small amount is needed, thus the jar will last a long time, making it a great value for me. Very silky, soft, non-odorous, gentle. Would def recommend to anyone!
- Awesome Review by MG, Palm Bay, FL

Totally disagree with whomever said it is heavy. Goes on oh so smoothly and just a little is all you need. Was using Patricia Wexler M.D. Now that is heavy. Stayed on top of my skin and I felt gooey all the time. This is definitely a superior product. Use the Wrinkle Revenge eye as well and will be using the DERMAdoctor cleanser and well as some of the other products. I am a convert.
- Can't use with any makeup Review by MAF, Seattle

This lotion just sits on top of my skin, and when I try to apply makeup, the lotion rubs off like a thin layer of rubber cement. I can use this at night I suppose, but during the day--no.

THORNBURY and Gloucestershire Academy cricketer Tom Shrewsbury is relishing the opportunity to play in South Africa with England under-19s.
Shrewsbury, who turns 18 tomorrow, was due to fly out with the squad for the Test and One-Day International series today and is still coming to terms with his international call-up.
After a successful two-day trial in the summer, the off-spinner was selected in the England Development Programme at the start of the winter, where he attended a training camp in Loughborough and did enough to convince the selectors to take him on tour.
England will play at Test ground Sahara Park Newlands in Cape Town in the first four-day match against South Africa, starting on January 27, with the second and final game of the series at Boland Park in Paarl on February 3 before the five-game one-day series starts on February 13.
Shrewsbury, who is from Cornwall but currently boarding at Wycliffe College, has been to South Africa before on an under-13s schoolboy tour and is excited to be heading back with England.
He said: "When I got the phone call to say I was selected I was over the moon. I still can't believe it.
"I've got some experience of the pitches and the heat and I'm really looking forward to going back there. It will be a challenge but I enjoy challenges.
"The next step with England will be matches in the summer against Pakistan and Bangladesh. Next year is the under-19 World Cup and I will still be able to go to that, so my ambition is to get into that."
Gloucestershire were tipped off about Shrewsbury by his coach in Cornwall and he was selected for the academy three years ago.
With director of cricket John Bracewell keen to give youngsters a chance, Shrewsbury is hoping to make his breakthrough on the county cricket circuit next season after playing some games for the seconds last year and unexpectedly scooping the Academy Player of the Year award.
"There were a few lads in the year above so I thought one of them would get it, but I'm very happy with it and proud of myself," he said of the award.
"I'm happy with the way it's going. I'd like to do well in the seconds, hopefully get noticed and get the odd game for the firsts."
Shrewsbury is hoping to play for Thornbury again next season after the wet summer limited him to five appearances in the West of England Premier League Premier Two last year, but he impressed by taking eight wickets at 18 apiece.
He also benefited from the guidance of former England off-spinner David Allen, who is president of both Thornbury and Gloucestershire and played a key role in taking Shrewsbury to the club.
"It was nice to have someone at the games to give me encouragement and that extra experience on the sidelines," said Shrewsbury.
"He's such a nice chap, he made it a lot easier. It's nice to know you're being coached by a former England player – not many can say that.
"They're a really good bunch of lads. I really enjoyed being with them, it was a good atmosphere and a good standard of cricket, so it was a good challenge."
Shrewsbury's international call-up was also a proud moment for everyone connected with Thornbury, coming just three years after the club's youth product Chris Dent was selected for England under-19s and signed a professional deal with Gloucestershire.
Captain Richard Trotman said: "It's excellent and keeps Thornbury on the map. It wasn't long ago that Chris was doing it so it's great to see, and part of what the club is about is the youth set-up."
"He (Shrewsbury) was trusted to improve with us and our link with Gloucestershire paid off. He's a very good bowler."

Diana Butler Bass on "Christianity after Religion"
Diana Butler Bass says we're now living in a post-religious age. What's surprising is how many people are abandoning organized religion, but not God. She talks about the people who identify as "spiritual but not religious," and describes her own journey through several Christian denominations.
Inaccurate statement
Enjoyed the interview, but Diana Butler Bass claims the PCA is "experiencing huge declines", but that is simply not accurate. She claims the PCA has shown "very substantial membership declines." Again, this is not true. In fact, the PCA has grown significantly in the past decade. The PCA had one year with a 1.3 percent decline after a large church purged its rolls, but regained that number and more the following year.
The church that is about half of its former size, and continuing to bleed members is the PCUSA, the Presbyterian Church USA, NOT the PCA, or Presbyterian Church in America. See http://www.layman.org/news.aspx?article=26072
Further stats
The information on the PCA comes from an article from the University of Chicago's Martin Marty and the yearbook on American and Canadian churches (the year available at the time of writing my book), both objective and highly respected sources on church membership.

Try to do some mentalrobics every single day!
Free radicals are molecules that are naturally produced by the body during normal functioning. Free radicals are highly reactive and thus are likely to take part in a chemical reaction. In the body these reactions tend to be destructive, and over time can contribute to various problems, including memory decline. Antioxidants are chemicals that can neutralize these free radicals and thus prevent them from initiating any harmful reactions.
Vitamin A (Beta-carotene): Found in carrots, squash, broccoli and other fruits and vegetables.
Vitamin C: Found in citrus and green leafy vegetables.
Vitamin E: Found in nuts, seeds, whole grains and green leafy vegetables.
Bio-flavonoids: Found in berries and green tea.
In one study, vitamin E was shown to help prevent normal age related memory decline. In another study vitamins C and E showed some promise in helping patients with dementia. Many other studies have shown additional health benefits from eating antioxidants. So, eat your vegetables!

John Ralfe, an independent pensions expert, is convinced that the National Union of Teachers has misled members in a fact sheet it gave them ahead of today's strike.
The NUT insist that their wording is correct; not being a pensions guru, I can only present the two sides of the argument.
The key bit is near the top of the second page, "How much longer does the government want me to work?" The document says that older teachers will be affected: "Anyone aged 57 or less would have to work to 66 and anyone aged 42 or less to 67 (to get their teachers' pension in full.)" Read more

TORRINGTON >> Two children reported missing Thursday night were returned home safely by their aunt Friday morning after a Silver Alert was issued by state and local police.
But the aunt, 27-year-old Jennifer Wheeler, was arrested by Torrington police and charged with two counts of risk of injury to a minor, two counts of reckless endangerment and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Police Lt. Bruce Whiteley said 25-year-old Melissa Sturz reported that her sister, Wheeler, had failed to pick her up at work in Canaan as planned. Sturz also told police her two children, Ariana, 5, and Savannah, 3, were in her sister's care. Sturz said she last heard from her sister around 5 p.m., when she called to say she was on her way to Canaan.�
Sturz told police Wheeler suffers from a drug addiction.
After Sturz reported her children missing, a silver alert was issued. Police were able to "ping" Wheeler's cell phone and learned she was in the Waterbury area. Police there assisted �in the investigation.
Around 9 a.m. friday, Sturz called police again and told them Wheeler had returned to Sturz's Torrington home with her children. Police responded to the scene, and found a crack cocaine pipe and other drug paraphernalia on Wheeler, Whiteley said.
An ambulance was also sent to the house and the children were taken to Charlotte Hungerford Hosptial for a precautionary examination, though they appeared fine, Whiteley said.
Detectives said Wheeler spent the night at a friend's home in Waterbury, with the children, after injesting cocaine to the point she was not capable of driving.
Wheeler was taken into custody and transported to police custody. She was held on $75,000 bond and later arraigned at Bantam Superior Court.

"Boogieman" Works Ahead on "Juneteenth Day"
COLUMBIA - Curtis "Boogieman" Soul was playing music for a crowd of about 20 Sunday afternoon in Douglass Park. He was doing to celebrate Black Music Month in June and also previewing the "Juneteenth" celebrations that are two weeks away. "Juneteenth" is the anniversary of African Americans receiving their emancipation from slavery in the United States.
"It didn't come 1776, July 4th," Soul said. "It came to us in 1865, which was a little short...only about 150 years."
The 10th annual Fayette Fabulous Festival will be held June 17th and the 18th in conjunction with St. Paul United Methodist Church's celebrations.

text: Brother of Rachel Donelson, the wife of Pres. Andrew Jackson. Husband of Elizabeth Glasgow, the daughter of James Glasgow, the NC secretary of state who resigned after he was implicated in the land-fraud scheme that came to bear his name (i.e., the Glasgow Land Fraud). Donelson, the surveyor-general of NC and a major land speculator himself, was also heavily implicated in the scandal but was never brought to trial. Hundreds of East Tennesseans were suspected of having benefitted from falsified titles. Attorney James Woods Lackey, the brother of Wm. Lackey, Archibald Lackey, and Hannah Lackey Chamberlain, who was closely associated with Donelson, was, however, never charged in the case. Earlier, Stockley Donelson had served as speaker of the legislature of the ill-fated state of Franklin (c1785) and also as a prominent militia officer. Some researchers claim that Donelson's death occurred not in Jefferson Co., TN, but in Nashville or in Dixon Springs, Smith Co.

The Mind shop in Ilkley has launched an appeal for residents to bring in unwanted presents, to meet increased demand for shop sales.
Customers, who have had to tighten their belts in this period of austerity, are flocking to charity store in search of gifts and The Mind shop needs to re-stock its shelves with good quality clothing, winter coats, accessories, CDs and DVDs.
Mind shop manager Angela Yelverton said: "Christmas is a time when everyone would like to buy and give gifts to their loved ones. This year many people are feeling the pinch, and charity shops are proving to be a great option for those on a budget.
"However, due to a dearth in donations, Mind cannot meet the additional demand.
"The Mind shop in Ilkley is therefore asking people to look carefully at last year's gifts, that they no longer need and donate them to make someone's Christmas wishes come true. Anything you can spare would be welcome.
"All your donations to our shops go to a worthwhile cause. It is thanks to your support that we are able to raise funds for the charity's vital work in ensuring no one has to face a mental health problem alone."

Swimathon fundraiser for pool
4:07pm Wednesday 21st May 2014
4:07pm Wednesday 21st May 2014
Supporters of the Llandysul Aqua Centre are organising a 24 hour Swimathon to raise money for the community pool. The Swimathon, planned for 21-22 June, will last from 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon to 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, a ond individuals and groups of adults and children will be swimming through the day and night in order to raise money to ensure the future of the centre.
There will be entertainment laid on at some times during the event, including a climbing wall, cake stall, refreshments, and for those taking part, maybe bacon sandwiches!
It is thanks to the generosity of members of the local community that Llandysul's Aqua Centre has been able to remain open, and already a community group is planning to run an extra weekly activity at the pool.
Chairman of the Trustees, Gareth Bryant says: "In order to make savings we have had to reduce the opening hours and increase prices but the public understand the reasons for this and realise it all helps towards securing our future. Now, we have several free slots that are available for the use of local groups and schools – and one group has already asked to run aquarobics sessions. It is an exciting time for us!"
Late in 2013 the pool, which is a registered charity, received the news that Ceredigion County Council had chosen to cut the grant funding it receives, leaving it with no option but to consider closing down. At a public meeting in December, which 300 people attended, 150 offered to sign up to a monthly donation system, to help keep the pool open. Since then the pool has several new Trustees and has also set up a dedicated fundraising group made up of volunteers.
Gareth Bryant again: "It is regrettable that the Council chose to cut funding to one pool instead of spreading it across the other pools in the County. However, we are very grateful to the community for getting behind the pool and so far 87 people are donating a monthly amount through our dedicated direct debit and standing order system and we have received several one-off donations. We still have a long way to go, and to help secure our future we desperately need all the people that initially expressed interest in the scheme to sign up, but the support has been very encouraging so far."
"There's plenty more hard work ahead, and it won't be easy. We've set a target of 300 monthly contributors, which will give us a solid base and allow us to invest in the pool's future. There's a desire in the community to do something, but not everyone has got around to it yet. But i't vitally important that the community continue to fight for this much needed community facility, and that they come up to use the pool as well. It would be brilliant to get more offers from the community to run, or suggest new activities at the pool, but in the meantime, thank you to everyone who has contributed already – we are still open because of you!"
There are still places available at the Swimathon. Anyone interested in taking part, signing up to the donation scheme, joining the volunteer fundraising group or offering new activities can contact Trystan Davies at the pool on 01559 362548 or email: email@example.com

Headlines (News Releases)
Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies
Lauriers Master of Music Therapy program marks 10 years as it unveils first-of-its-kind lab
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Apr 1/13| For Immediate Release
Carolyn Arnason, Associate Professor, Music Therapy
Kevin Crowley, Director, Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
WATERLOO Lauriers Faculty of Music will celebrate 10 years of alumni and student excellence in its Music Therapy masters program April 9 as it also unveils a Music Therapy Clinical Improvisational Lab the first of its kind in Canada.
The improvisation lab will enhance research, as well as teaching and learning in the undergraduate and graduate music therapy programs. Heidi Ahonen, a music professor at Laurier and director of the Manfred and Penny Conrad Institute for Music Therapy Research, received the funding for the lab.
The lab enhances client and therapist sessions through the use of modern equipment and technology, furthering the research of clinical improvisation as a whole, said Ahonen. Improvisation provides the opportunity for clients to express themselves through sound.
As the Faculty of Music gets ready to unveil its lab, it will also celebrate the Music Therapy master programs 10th anniversary with student performances, keynote speakers and a reception.
Over the past 10 years, graduates of this program have developed into a community of music therapists practising music-centred psychotherapy. Students gain practical experience working with clients through community practicum placements and in the facultys on-site clinic.
Music is at the heart of our work and it is music that breathes life and potential into the therapeutic process, said Colin Lee of Lauriers Music Therapy program. Through the inspiration of improvising, creation of song, the deep listening of guided imagery and music, and through the experience of low frequency sounds, clients are given the opportunity to develop and reach their full potential.
Laurier has the longest running Master of Music Therapy program in Canada and is the only university in Canada that offers both undergraduate and graduate music therapy education.
An open house for the Music Therapy Clinical Improvisational Lab will be held April 9 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Room A210 in the John Aird Building on Lauriers Waterloo campus. A celebration marking the programs 10th anniversary will follow at 7:15 p.m. in the Maureen Forrester Recital Hall.
To attend either event, please contact Debra Martz Melanson at firstname.lastname@example.com or 519-884-1970 ext. 2658. For more information about Lauriers graduate and undergraduate music therapy programs, visit www.wlu.ca/music.

The Black Ears are one of the hill tribes that live in the Mountains of the Moon. They derive their name from their habit of chopping off the ears of their victims and wearing those as a necklace.
They are ruled by Chella, daughter of Cheyk. Together with other hill tribes, the Black Ears joined Tyrion Lannister and helped him get out of the Vale in return for money and weapons to take over the Vale for themselves.
In the books
The Moon Brothers and the Black Ears have strong bonds together.
While the Black Ears do cut the ears off of their fallen enemies, they don't necessarily kill them. As Chella explained: "We don't kill our victims. Only cowards do so, because they fear they can't conquer them twice."

Security is everyone's responsibility and we're free to organize in affinity groups to keep each other safe.
1. For direct action, Tactical WG will serve as hub for communication, scheduling, inter-team and Occupy Seattle participation, and if desired, assistance.
1. Occupy Seattle joins the struggle of students, faculty and staff at Seattle Central Community College and other colleges and universities to defend public education and all other social services against the vicious attacks coming from Olympia and Washington, DC, The fight to defend education and social services is our fight. We say no to tuition hikes, budget cuts, and layoffs. We say cancel student debt. Quality education is a right, not a privilege. It should be free. Unite to defeat budget cuts and fight for instead full funding for education and all other social services.
2. Occupy Seattle joins the struggle of students, faculty, and staff against the attacks on public education and social services by building for and carrying out these three actions:
a) Rally and protest here at SCCC on 11/15. We're calling it "Defend education for 99%".
b) Occupy the Supercommittee. This is a week of action that's been called nationally against the mass attacks coming from this unelected Supercommittee. $1.5 trillion targeted public education, Medicare, Medicaid, and all other social services. A mass rally is called for Saturday 11/19. We build for that and also a weekday action in which Occupy Seattle will occupy the Federal building and shut it down.
c) In Olympia on the 28th, a bunch of groups are building for a mass action that was announced here by Sisters Organizing for Survival that we should join this effort. We should vote to join this also, to go down to Olympia and occupy the Capitol.
3. Whereas our constitutional rights, especially the right of free speech and the right of peaceable assembly is critical to this movement, the Legal workgroup seeks authority from the GA to do two things:
a) Legal asks for authority to approach and retain a law firm to represent Occupy Seattle free of charge for the purposes of considering a lawsuit to enforce our constitutional rights. Legal would only consider law firms that have the resources and a reputation for fighting for constitutional rights which in legal's opinion would do justice to Occupy Seattle's principles of anti-oppression, equality, and fairness. One such firm we would approach would be Davis Wright Tremaine, the firm most identified with fighting against governmental limits on first amendment rights including the cases of Berger vs Seattle and Nicklesville, both of which Davis Wright Tremaine won.
b) Legal seeks authority for another thing. Though authority over decisions to begin or end a lawsuit and all other major decisions would remain with GA, Legal asks for the authority to make day to day strategic decisions. Of course, Legal would provide weekly written and oral reports on all litigation activity.
c) (amended proposal) Legal will provide a workshop.
4. a) Put Hip Hop Occupies' event, 'Rise and Decolonize' on Occupy Seattle's press schedule
b) (amended proposal) On November 18th, GA is rescheduled for 2pm
1. Liam: Occupy Seattle has many different politics and visions within it. This is our strength. We will not allow any in our movement to be singled out and attacked for their politics whether they be anarchist, progressive, communist, liberal, socialist, radical, etc. We welcome healthy debate among and between each of these groups, but debate is very different from irrational attacks and fear-mongering. We will defend each other and our movement.
If people are partaking in actions which are damaging to the movement or risk the safety of its members unnecessarily, this should be dealt with as a separate matter, outside the purview of this statement of principle. But no one will be allowed to ostracize or demonize our fellow occupiers for their world views or goals. Unless that be a world view or goal which is decisively against the general unity and aspirations of the movement, such as: fascists, the openly racist, sexist, or homophobic, white-nationalist populists, ageist, ableist, etc. No action, except those passed by the General Assembly, represent Occupy Seattle as a whole. We do, however, stand in solidarity with actions taken against the powers that be by any group or individual within this movement.
2. Josh: Proposal to Organize and Occupy in Solidarity
We officially establish and re-affirm that this occupied space at SCCC, and all future occupied spaces in Seattle are: public spaces, Occupy Seattle spaces, and activist spaces. These spaces are not individual or private spaces. Given the following logistical and strategic concerns for how we can operate effectively as a community and as a political action, including: our collective need for more adequate infrastructure, problems with black mold, bed bug infestation, threats to security, the placement of pallets, bigger tents with heat and lighting, the installation of electrical infrastructure, rubbish in walk ways, police raids, placement of honey buckets, wind blocks, continuing expansion, and other developing issues and concerns.
We therefore give working groups the right to make adjustments to infrastructure and perform their respective work so long as it is announced before the General Assembly (GA) in a respectful way.
Twelve hours notice shall be given to the community, in the form of a GA announcement, regarding large-scale restructuring of camp or emergency actions which affect everyone. Such announcements will also be posted on the announcement board at the Info tent, and it is the responsibility of our community (including working group members) to spread information about urgent working group actions by word of mouth, to those not able to attend a particular GA.
In the course of all work by any working group, every effort should be made to respect individual property and autonomy.
Regarding Process and Facilitation: When such GA announcements are made, a temperature check will be done to determine whether the working group should proceed with their work, or if the project affects the community too broadly to proceed without discussion. When it is determined that more community discussion is needed, interested individuals are invited to join an immediate working caucus after GA has disbanded to discuss the proposed work and contribute information or consultation as needed. The results of this caucus will be a proposal that must be brought before the following GA for democratic consensus or rejection. However, given the urgent nature of some of these announcement/proposals, the GA must receive the working group proposal on the following day regardless of it being a regular scheduled voting day. Every effort will be made by working groups not to overburden the GA with unnecessary restructuring announcements. Routine work should not be announced at the GA.
In the event that a working group has information or reasonable belief that there is an imminent emergency which threatens the stability of our movement (such as an impending police raid), we give working groups the ability to take immediate action as needed to resolve the threat.
Regarding the need for accountability to our democratic process and to our community: Individual autonomy should be respected so long as it does not endanger the democratically derived authority and greater efforts of Occupy Seattle. It is recognized that unity, and maintaining the integrity of our democratic process, are core values of Occupy Seattle. When individuals within our community engage in behavior that appears to threaten our democratic process, action must be taken to help people change or end such behavior. Disputes and conflicts are to be addressed by individuals through a conflict resolution process. In cases where a person is seen to have offended the entire community, then a community conflict resolution process will happen, to be detailed in a later proposal, or by later amendment of this proposal. As an absolute last option, after all other efforts at conflict resolution have been exhausted, individuals who are seen as circumventing the General Assembly's process should be barred from organizing within GA working groups for a period of a week after the first offense, then barred from the Occupy Seattle activities at large for a period of a month after the second offense, and barred from Occupy Seattle for a year after the third offense. Charges of circumventing the GA's process shall be brought before the GA for adjudication until some point in time when another process of conflict resolution is formed or this proposal is amended.
1. Mohawk: No smoking in tents or flammable area, no open flame in straw area or tents. Additional detail: first consequence: kicked out for night or 8-10 hours, after both sides of story heard. Second: kicked out 24-78 hours. Third: Banned permanently or required to do community service.
1. Solidarity with Occupy Oakland. Port Shutdown.
1. Resignation of John Diaz: In consideration of the Seattle Police Department's systematic use of excess force on the citizens of Seattle, its violent and unnecessary repression of nonviolent protesters and its disproportionate targeting of the most disenfranchised members of society, whether they be people of color or simply people without houses, Occupy Seattle hereby calls for the resignation of John Diaz, Chief of the Seattle Police Department and the prosecution of all officers found to be repeatedly engaged in misconduct.
2. Finances:
a: All money in the Occupy Seattle general fund be spent using the 80% consensus of the occupiers who choose to vote during a weekly meeting scheduled and made public on the site at least 1 week in advance. (ex: inter-work group meeting)
b: That all money be accounted for and publicly accessible and copies of all receipts be made. The current balance, (original and copies) of the receipts, money spent and donations be publicly accessible, both in hard copy and digitally. The current balance be put on a tab on the Occupy Seattle website and the money subtracted and added each week be accounted for on the website and updated in this tab on a weekly basis.
c: Money donated to specific projects, work groups, or affinity groups belongs to those groups. Funds raised for specific causes, by work groups, or affinity groups may only be spent for purposes authorized by those groups unless otherwise specified by the donors at the time of collection. This includes monies raised via we-pay. This respects the intent of donors and the work done by these groups to secure funding for their projects
3. Proposal to support the EGT Grain Ship arrival Action: We join Longview in calling out to all occupies, from New York City down to Florida, all the way through to the West Coast, to join us in solidarity.
1. Have a Community Tent for Storage of Items.
1. Create a Sustainability Work Group to Guide the Actions and Implement the Ideas for a Sustainable Occupy Seattle.
2. Let's Call Everybody Volunteers, not Representatives, Co-ordinators, or Anything Else.
1. When Tents are Erected Tomorrow, We Do Not Enter Them.
1. Fundraising Committee and other Appropriate Working Groups be Authorized to Organize a Mass Potluck Sometime in the Next Two Weeks.
1. This Saturday, After the Two Demonstrations, We March to SCCC to Set up New Base Camp, and Maintain a Daytime Presence at Westlake through GA, Work Groups, Direct Action, etc.
2. We Will Not Call the Cops On One Another in this Movement.
1. In solidarity with Indigenous People Around the World, Occupy Seattle will Change Its Name to Decolonize/Occupy Seattle.
1. Have a Mass, Indefinite Occupation of SCCC, with Tents, and Prepare for it All Week.
1. Adopt Occupy Seattle Good Neighbor Guidelines
1. Occupy Seattle will be officially a non-violent movement. We don't tolerate people who are violent toward others, whether members or non-members. If someone is violent, he or she will be removed from the camp and allowed to discuss the situation later. And right now to propose a resolution in the future about a conflict resolution.

If you are using Adobe Reader 10.1.2 you may experience some problems when attempting to print a PDF document. The symptoms of this problem will be that either nothing will be printed, or, Reader may crash.
This is a bug in Reader 10.1.2 and is resolved with the 10.1.3 and later releases. The problem is related to network printers that do not have a "Share name" defined.
If you cannot update to 10.1.3 immediately (in controlled enterprise environments) we have provided known workarounds to avoid the issue until you can install the update.
1. Open Reader
2. Choose Help > Check for Updates
Reader installs the update automatically.
If you prefer, you can download and install the update yourself. Click the link below and scroll down to the update section of the page.
Option 1: install patch for Adobe Reader 10.1.2
- Log in to your computer as an Administrator.
- Click the link to download the AdobeReaderPatch10.1.2_cpsid_92870.zip file.
- Unzip the file to extract the executable AdobeReaderPatch10.1.2_cpsid_92870.exe.
- Close Adobe Reader if it is running.
- Do one of the following to run the AdobeReaderPatch10.1.2_cpsid_92870.exe file:
- Double-click the AdobeReaderPatch10.1.2_cpsid_92870.exe file.
- Run the AdobeReaderPatch10.1.2_cpsid_92870.exe file in silent mode by specifying the -silent flag on the command line. Open the command prompt 'As Administrator' to avoid UAC prompt dialog.
Example: <path to AdobeReaderPatch10.1.2_cpsid_92870.exe> -silent
- Once the process is completed, you receive a prompt stating the result of the operation.
Note: When run in silent mode, all dialog boxes are suppressed. No success message or error message appear.
- A log is created in the temp directory (%temp%) with the name AcroPatchApplication1012.log. (The changes sometimes only take effect after you restart your computer)
Option 2: create share names for all network printers
- Go to Start > Devices and Printers.
- Access all Network Printers installed on your machine.
- Right click on each network printer to access the printer properties.
- Goto the Ports Tab and verify the printer is a network printer (i.e. it is using a "Standard TCP/IP Port").
- You only need to continue if this is a network printer.
- Open the Sharing tab and give your printer a "Share name".
- If you wish not to share your printer then you may choose to give it a "Share name" and then select the "Do not share this printer" checkbox.
- Please ensure that all Network printers have been assigned a Share name otherwise the problem will persist. Please find below a screenshot for your reference.
Option 3: disable protected mode
The second work around is to turn off the Protected Mode of Adobe Reader and the problem will be resolved right away. However, it is not advised to keep the application in non-protected mode for security reasons. It is advisable to turn this setting ON once you are done with your printing task.
You can access this setting by going to Edit–>Preferences–>General, and un-check the option "Enable protected mode at start-up" at the bottom of the window. You will need to re-start the Adobe Reader after you have made changes to this setting.
