text: Politics 4 March 2002 The common man For Studs Terkel, chronicler of everyday life, history is in the people. Matthew Dodd considers the Sign up for our weekly email * Ordinary people are everywhere. Everywhere in the media, that is - from Helen in Big Brother and reviews by email@example.com to the man on the poster who's just bought his schoolboy hero's cricket bat because he uses a particular brand of Isa. The media are hungry to pull consumers into the production of media output. Their "ordinariness" makes them the centre of attention. Strange, then, that every time the legendary Chicago journalist Studs Terkel has a new book published, the profiles that mark its imminent arrival speak in reverent tones about his unique ability to give voice to, well, ordinary people. "Singing the unsung hero", "Everybody who's nobody", "The man who interviews America" are typical of the review headlines. But how can he be the man who interviews America, when America, like everywhere else, is being interviewed all the time? The answer is that Studs Terkel's interviews are different. In contrast to the traumatised first reactions, the polished soundbites and the confessional outpourings that fill the ether, Terkel uses the classic devices of oral history. He talks to his subjects about their lives, usually over several sittings, listens intently to their answers, transcribes the conversations, edits out his own questions and then often changes the people's names before publication. In his own words: "It's got to be the person's truth, highlighted." In a world of multimedia sophistication, it seems quaintly old-fashioned. Yet the reality is that life stories, told straight and at length from the mouths of people who aren't momentarily famous - or weird - still seem pretty rare. And radical, too. Terkel's collections of interviews - Hard Times, about the Depression, Race and The Good War, about America in the Second World War (which won a Pulitzer Prize) - make one thing clear: despite the democratic truism that all opinions are as valid as others, many voices are still not listened to unless they are focus-grouping, performing or bystanding. In Terkel's books, the story is not the story; the story is the people. Ever since Henry Mayhew published the first volume of his ground-breaking London Labour and the London Poor in 1851, the idea of listening to the unheard has remained a powerful engine of oral history. Mayhew walked the East End and made an encyclopaedic survey of the destitute and unemployed. His detailed findings and the stories he recounted shocked mid-Victorian society, which preferred to talk in the most general of terms about an impersonal and faceless mass: "the poor". The power of oral history ever since has been that it has sought to bring to life subjects that are taboo and voices that have been ignored. It is no surprise that Terkel cites Mayhew as one of his heroes. His forthcoming book, Will the Circle be Unbroken?, is a series of conversations about one of our enduringly sensitive subjects - death. For all our media exposure, our open-mindedness and freedom of expression, the success of Terkel's books suggests that we still have not worked out how to bring wider exposure to experience that is individual and unique but, by historical or journalistic standards, unexceptional. It is noticeable how many of the newspaper features on the tragically astounding events of 11 September were based around the unaccompanied words of those involved. Diary pieces, extended vox pops and streams of consciousness were all used. It is as if journalists realised that their copy would somehow intrude on the true teller of the story. Terkel and his fellow oral historians have for years been employing exactly the same principles in their efforts to chronicle the shape of the everyday, not the exceptional. One of Terkel's most successful and best-known books, Working, first published in 1974, came from hearing about experiences of working life from shop floor to boardroom. Superficially, no topic of conversation could be more routine or mundane. In practice, getting people to talk frankly about their jobs has the air of subversion: the manager who confesses that he only pretends to believe the company philosophy; the politically incorrect thoughts of the gasman. Working now features on school curricula in the US. In television and radio documentary-making, there is a superficial sense that, today, oral history is all around us. It got a particular boost at the time of the millennium epics, when the BBC brought us People's Century on screen and The Century Speaks on radio. The eyewitness is currently an essential component of the standard 20th-century historical documentary - and is used to brilliant effect by such television film-makers as Steve Humphries and Laurence Rees. And Video Diaries created a more up-to-date snapshot of the nation. However, the vast majority of oral testimony is an illu- strative accompaniment to bigger narratives, rather than centre stage. How often are people interviewed for documentaries (I know because I have been guilty of it myself) because they prove some point or show how something was experienced, rather than just asked - with no preconception - what it was like? If the answer is unwieldy, or does not fit into the preconceived narrative of the bigger picture, well, then it often (not through malice) slips out of the final programme. Even more dubious is the fashion for using oral testimony as a form of authenticity to enhance fictional productions. Steven Spielberg has been particularly keen to do this, inserting interviews with former GIs into his production Band of Brothers. Their essential role is to verify that this is a true story - not to offer the detail of their experience. There is no doubt that Terkel's own popular version of oral history can have a "folksy" feel to it, in our age of postmodern marketing categorisation. His strong belief in the universality of human experience leads him very deliberately to mix celebrities and ordinary Joes, elite and blue collar. Typically, in his forthcoming Will the Circle Be Unbroken?, the words of the celebrated author Kurt Vonnegut appear alongside those of Rick Rundle, an unknown city sanitation worker. Terkel's approach was formed in the 1930s and 1940s, when progressive unity was the watchword of the Popular Front. There is a romantic simplicity to this sociology which, under current conditions, verges on the sentimental. But oral history can be far subtler. Britain's own answer to the Chicago talker, the late Tony Parker (the man who Terkelled Terkel and wrote his biography), spent much of his career in oral history, like Henry Mayhew, dealing with crime, criminals and the dispossessed. Parker's The People of Providence, a series of personal stories from a housing estate in south London, has nothing less than the quality of a novel. The vignettes of life in a place that, to the outsider, might look lifeless give a vivacity that would be unrepeatable in any conventional exercise in journalism or social history. It is also a technique noticeable in widely read and recent works of sociology, such as Richard Sennett's study of the new working environment, The Corrosion of Character. At that book's core are personal stories about life in the deregulated jobs market of hi-tech industries. Amid the coldness of objective indicators, market testing and quarterly targets, oral testimony can reclaim for sociologists aspects of the qualitative assessment of modern life. And this is perhaps one of the most important dimensions of Terkel's collections of interviews. They give the lie to our inability to get beyond the anonymous babble of modern communications. Intimacy is their outstanding characteristic. It is a quality that perhaps stems from Terkel's training as a journalist: "I came out of radio, not writing. That is important." And he talked to the high- and low-born on his daily show on WMFT Chicago for 45 years. The best of radio interviewing has an intimacy and closeness to its subjects to which oral history also aspires. It is as if the simplicity of radio means that the medium can be wished out of the way to reveal the unadorned voice, and the experience it relays. Naturally, it is an illusion to think that we can somehow listen to other people free of intervention from technology - but it is a worthy ideal. As Lord Reith hoped, all those years ago, for his new invention the BBC: "Nation shall speak unto nation." Terkel does not set himself up as "anti-media" - but one cannot help feeling that his work produces that impression. He is about as starry as oral historians get; even so, he comes across as a subtle enabler, like a documentary producer whose presence is invisible but constant. He is the opposite of the ego-historians who stalk our bookshops pronouncing on world events, and who dwarf the poor souls who are the subjects of their studies. After all, none of these books is entitled Studs Terkel on . . . Today, at the age of almost 90, Terkel claims to have conducted 9,000 interviews and, in his semi-retirement, spends time at the Chicago Historical Society cataloguing them. It is far too easy to believe that the lines between recording equipment and subject are now so blurred that we are all enmeshed in the ubiquitous media world. It gives the false impression that we all have equal access to the means of registering our experience. Digital technology may yet bring that. While Terkel's method of research - an old tape recorder that he's not quite mastered - does have an outdated feel, the spirit of the exercise - "personal truth, highlighted" - remains as valid, and sometimes as unreachable, as ever.

Highly placed sources confirm that Tehelka has appointed veteran journalist and author Prem Shankar Jha as Consulting Editor. Jha is already associated with the Tehelka magazine as a columnist.
As is known, Tehelka lost two of its top editorial heads – Founder-Editor Tarun Tejpal and Managing Editor Shoma Choudhary – in the wake of allegations of sexual misconduct against Tejpal leveled by a junior female staff of the magazine.
In the course of his career, Jha has worked with Hindustan Times, The Economic Times, Financial Express and The Times of India, among others.
He has also been associated with world bodies such as the United Nations, World Bank, and the Asia and Pacific Development Administration Centre of the UN for various projects.
He has also been a columnist for The Hindu, The Hindustan Times, and Business Standard, besides Tehelka. Incidentally, his latest column in Tehelka explains why 'Tehelka is now bigger than any single individual'.
A prolific writer, Jha has authored several books including 'India: A Political Economy of Stagnation', 'In the Eye of the Cyclone: The crisis in Indian Democracy', 'Kashmir 1947: The Origins of a Dispute', 'India & China: The Battle Between Soft and Hard Power', and 'Destruction of A Nation', among others.

New Delhi, Dec. 24 -- A Delhi Police constable, who is battling for life at the RML hospital, was among the 78 police personnel who were injured during the day-long protest at India Gate on Sunday.
Apart from the police personnel, 65 protesters also sustained injuries when police lathicharged and directed water cannons at the demonstrators to disperse them.
Senior police officers said the critically injured constable, identified as Subhash Tomar, lost his consciousness after suffering injuries during stone-pelting. But doctors at the RML hospital said Tomar apparently had a cardiac arrest.
"Constable Subhash Tomar is fighting for his life at Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital," said Taj Hasan, joint commissioner of police (central range). Tomar is posted at Karawal Nagar police station. He was beaten up at Tilak Marg near India Gate in the evening by "hooligans among protesters".
Dharmendra Kumar, special commissioner of police (law and order), said, "He is critical. He sank thrice but was revived by doctors. He is now on ventilator."
"When he was brought here, he was in a state of cardiac arrest. He was very critical and we performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on him. He is presently in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and his condition is serious," said Dr TS Sidhu, medical superintendent of Ram Manohar Lohia hospital.
Among the 78 policemen injured were some senior officers such as joint commissioner (Central) Taj Hasan, additional commissioner (New Delhi) KC Dwivedi, deputy commissioner of police (Outer) BS Jaiswal and additional deputy commissioner (New Delhi) Sanjay Tyagi.
At least 25 vehicles - 12 DTC buses, 12 PCR vans and a Doordarshan vehicle - were damaged.

Structural diversity in one-dimensional coordination polymers of a flexible multimodal ligand
Amoore, J.J.M. and Hanton, L.R. and Spicer, M.D. (2005) Structural diversity in one-dimensional coordination polymers of a flexible multimodal ligand. Supramolecular Chemistry, 17 (7). pp. 557-565. ISSN 1061-0278Full text not available in this repository. Request a copy from the Strathclyde author
Four one-dimensional coordination polymers were prepared by the reaction of a flexible multimodal ligand, bis(2-pyrazylmethyl)sulfide (L), with AgX salts (X = ClO4- or NO3) and CuI in a 2:1 M-to-L ratio and with AgCF3SO3 in a 1: 1 M-to-L ratio. The one-dimensional polymers showed considerable structural diversity and the influence of ligand conformation and anion on the formation of these coordination polymers was explored. A ladder-like polymer, 1, was formed with AgClO4 while a U-shaped chain, 2, was formed with AgNO3. An X-shaped chain, 3, was formed with AgCF3SO3 in which the Ag(I) ion adopted a square-planar geometry. A fused-loop chain, 4, was formed with CuI and these chains were stacked on top of each other to give large channels. Three different conformations and four different coordination modes of L were identified in these structures.

Elizabeth Basya Cohen, 3 May 1915, Brooklyn, New York City, New York, USA, d. 23 November 2006, New York, USA. After graduating with a degree in science, Betty Comden strove to find work as an actress. During this period, the late 30s, she met Adolph Green (b. 2 December 1915, the Bronx, New York City, New York, USA, d. 24 October 2002, Manhattan, New York City, New York, USA), who was also seeking work in the theatre. Unsuccessful in their attempts to find acting jobs, Comden and Green formed their own troupe, together with another struggling actress, Judy Holliday. In the absence of suitable material, Comden and Green began creating their own and discovered an ability to write librettos and lyrics. At first their success was only limited, but in the early 40s they were invited by a mutual friend, Leonard Bernstein, to work on the book and lyrics of a musical he planned to adapt from his ballet score Fancy Free.

CaptainDoug - Friday, January 11, 2013 - linkI wonder how much one of these thing will cost. They're smaller than I would expect. Reply
MGSsancho - Friday, January 11, 2013 - linkThe unit itself, maybe under $10. Article mentions the need for a fiber link to a remote facility to house possible 1U (I added this) or more of support equipment. Might end up costing a carrier $30k to deploy with licensing, labor, adding gear, space rental on buildings since you really can't have gear on poles in most places. It will not be cheap compared to what we might be thinking. But this is great for phone retail stores (people can run benchmarks off a local cell lol. Either way this device is cheap compared tot he cost of putting up a more common carrier pole which run the price of a small home (California prices).

Aikouka - Saturday, January 12, 2013 - linkVerizon could really use this in some of my local stores. My local Target has no data service for pretty much the entire store, and amusingly enough, the Verizon Wireless store is in the same shopping complex! Luckily, Target has a guest WiFi, so I can still comparison shop. However, I would prefer to rely on my LTE connection instead! Reply
pixelstuff - Sunday, January 13, 2013 - linkMaybe they will deploy something like this near my house. It's almost like I have a dampening field around my property due to valleys and hills. Tech support said it is likely to stay that way. I can drive 1,000 feet in ether direction and get good service. My house has zero bars and a few places around the property can get one bar (sometimes). Reply

It was not a fun weekend at all.
I saw a tropical depression Friday night and then got depressed watching a football game Saturday. Like all Mountaineer fans I'm emotionally involved. It's difficult to remove the emotion, but after Saturday's performance I think it's important to take an objective look at what's going on within the Mountaineer program.
We are watching a team going through major transitions on offense and defense.
It is a team that lost eight starters on defense. Four of those players earned all conference honors, including Marc Magro and Keilen Dykes who are currently on NFL rosters.
It's an offense that's running a new series of plays with new terminology. That's obvious by the number of times Pat White has to point out where a teammate should be lining up.
It's a defense that lacks leadership; last season's leading tackler and Fiesta Bowl MVP Reed Williams, who's recovering from double shoulder surgery, hasn't played a snap.
Those are the facts, but there are some other things to consider before you think one loss on the road to an experienced East Carolina team equals a losing season.
A staff that has 221 years of experience at the college level is coaching this team. It's a staff that has combined to play in 12 national championship games - winning four. It's a staff that has won 37 conference championships and coached in 89 bowl games.
It's a proven staff that knows how to teach and knows how to win. There is a great deal of teaching and learning that must take place before the Mountaineers regain their well-known swagger. Swagger is the byproduct of experience plus confidence and right now both ingredients are lacking.
History shows us that coaching transitions are not easy. Since 1950, West Virginia University has hired seven football coaches. The only coach to win more games in his first season than the man he replaced was Don Nehlen who won six games after inheriting a team that won five. That means Art "Pappy" Lewis (two), Gene Corum (zero), Jim Carlen (three), Bobby Bowden (eight), Frank Cignetti (five), and Rich Rodriguez (three) all won fewer games than their predecessor.
The bet from here is that the 2008 Mountaineers will improve each time they take the field. However, it's a process that you can't speed up. History shows us that transition years are difficult. So hang in there with the knowledge that the guys in charge of the coaching know how to win - it's only a matter of time.

Chiquita Sponsors U.S. Men's and Women's National Soccer Teams
CINCINNATI (Monday, March 31, 2003) – Chiquita Fresh North America today announced its sponsorship of the United States Men's and Women's National Soccer Teams, becoming the official banana and fresh produce of the U.S. Soccer Federation. This sponsorship reinforces the company's ongoing commitment to support good nutrition and a healthy, active lifestyle for children and adults.
Chiquita has signed two of the sport's most visible and popular stars to serve as brand spokespersons. Landon Donovan, a forward on the U.S. Men's National Team and a member of the 2002 FIFA World Cup All-Star Team, and Shannon McMillan, a forward on the U.S. Women's National Team and U.S. Soccer's 2002 Chevrolet Female Athlete of the Year, will help promote Chiquita® bananas and other fresh fruit as part of the company's sponsorship.
"Soccer is the fastest-growing participation sport in the United States, making it an excellent way for Chiquita to communicate the importance of a healthy diet and lifestyle to millions of Americans," said David Lund, director of marketing, Chiquita Fresh North America. "Sponsoring both the men's and women's national teams will help us reach both kids and adults across the country. We want to educate families about how eating Chiquita bananas and other fresh produce, when combined with the physical demands of a sport, such as playing soccer, can help them meet their daily nutritional and exercise requirements and lead healthier, more enjoyable lives."
Chiquita's sponsorship will be communicated to consumers via signage and public address announcements at U.S. Soccer matches, soccer-themed in-store signage, and on the U.S. Soccer (www.ussoccer.com) and Chiquita web sites. The sponsorship will also be featured in Chiquita's 2003 summer promotion, in which a trip to a U.S. Soccer match in the Caribbean will be the Grand Prize.
"Chiquita is an ideal partner for the U.S. Soccer Federation, because we both believe that physical activity, combined with a nutritious diet, forms the basis for a healthy lifestyle," said Dan Flynn, Secretary General of the U.S. Soccer Federation. "We are pleased to welcome Chiquita into the U.S. Soccer family, and know that their support will allow us to spread our message about soccer, physical fitness and health to an ever-growing audience."
Soccer has experienced tremendous growth in popularity in the U.S. in recent years. In total, more than 18 million Americans of all ages play the sport, including one in four children ages 7-18. Soccer is also the number-one sport among the rapidly growing Hispanic-American population. The sport's popularity has grown in part due to the U.S. Men's historic quarterfinal finish in the 2002 World Cup and the U.S. Women's thrilling championship win in the 1999 Women's World Cup.
As the governing body of soccer in all its forms in the U.S., the U.S. Soccer Federation has helped chart the course for the sport in the country for 90 years. In that time, the Federation's mission statement has been very simple and very clear: to make soccer a pre-eminent sport in the U.S. and to continue the development of soccer at all recreational and competitive levels. To that end, U.S. Soccer has managed 12 different National Teams, from Under-16s Boys' and Girls' teams up through the Men's and Women's World Cup sides. In the 1990s, U.S. Soccer served as the host federation for World Cup USA 1994, the highest attended event in FIFA history, and as the host federation for the most successful women's sporting event in history—Women's World Cup 1999. Founded in 1913, U.S. Soccer now has the largest membership among U.S. Olympic Committee national governing bodies.

We have operated My Sisters' Place in the East Valley since 1985. In that time, we have received generous support from community, especially during the holidays. We are again asking the community to help make the holiday brighter for the women and children of our shelter.
These women have had to flee their homes due to domestic violence. And while we provide what we can to meet the day-to-day needs of our clients, we rely on the community to help provide for those extra things for the holidays.
We need donations of new, unwrapped non-violent toys, gift cards and nonperishable food items to help make the holidays bright for its residents. We also need baby items and gifts for moms, including bath and spa products, cosmetics, robes and journals or day planners.
Donations may be dropped off at Engenuity Systems, 2165 W. Pecos Road, Suite 1, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Dec. 13. For more information, call My Sisters' Place, at (480) 821-1024.
Our shelter was founded in 1985 to answer the need of women and their children who are fleeing domestic violence. We are one of only two confidential domestic violence shelters serving the East Valley and providing a private and comforting environment for survivor's safety and recovery. We go beyond just providing shelter. We help to empower women and their children through education and self-determined services, helping them work towards an independent and abuse free life.
In addition, My Sisters' Place addresses the needs of the littlest victims of domestic violence. Our caring staff helps the children feel as comfortable as they can in their new surroundings while providing support to meet their unique needs. We have dedicated childhood case workers and provide therapeutic children's programming, including art and pet therapy.
With help from the community, My Sisters' Place was able to provide more than 8,308 nights of safety for 309 women and children last year alone. We could not provide the services we do without the help of caring people like you. Thank you for considering our request to help make Christmas possible for those residing in our shelter this holiday season.
• Peggy Dudinyak is the domestic violence program manager for Catholic Charities Community Services.

So, I'm loving getting to visit all of these different Craigslists (Craigslistes? Craigslisti? What's the plural of Craigslist?) but I have to confess – I find a new city I want to move to every week now! That, or I find myself wanting to spend exorbitant amounts of money to have these (AMAZING) furniture pieces shipped to me!
I didn't realize it until after I had gathered all of the finds for this week, but it looks like I have dressers on my brain. Either that or the people of Washington DC own the most amazing dressers ever. Maybe a little bit of both?
All I know is that I'm totally jealous of Camille, the lovely reader who asked me to scope out what I could find in Washington DC, because she actually could go out and buy every one of these ridiculously beautiful pieces. I know I would if I were her.
(Craigslist Washington DC – $260)
Oh, hello most amazing dresser EVER. Y'all, I'm in love with this thing. The hardware is amazing, I love the slightly curvy legs and the pretty detail on the bottom, and OMG that color is amazing. On a slightly unrelated note, I'm also a little obsessed with how they've styled the room and this dresser. I love the orange flowers with the blue dresser, and that lamp and mirror are both gorgeous. I am not even kidding when I say that I'm contemplating a road trip up to DC to pick this guy up.
(Craigslist Washington DC – $325)
I love love love the shape of this dresser. It's nice and simple with clean lines, and some very subtle detailing on the legs. Gorgeous! And again with that beautiful industrial hardware – it's perfect! I probably would want to paint this guy – it would look good in just about any color! If I bought it, though, it would definitely get painted a glossy black and placed in our guest room. Wouldn't it fit in perfectly?!
(Craigslist Washington DC – two for $150)
I usually try to avoid putting Ikea furniture in these posts (or really, any furniture that you could find at a big box store), but this deal is too good to skip including! I really love this line of furniture from Ikea, and Corey and I have been seriously contemplating picking up a piece or two from the collection. Since there are two of these, I think they would look amazing used as extra-large bedside tables (in our guest room? Perfect fit!) or even flanking a couch. This is even better than a buy one get on free deal here, people – someone needs to snag these guys!
(Craigslist Washington DC – $400)
I am having a big love affair with bamboo pieces right now – especially after my sister bought a beautiful faux bamboo dresser for my nieces' play room and gave it the most amazing makeover ever. The listing says that there is only one of these guys left, but I would kill for a set of dressers like this to use on either side of the bed in our guest room. They would look amazing next to our brass bed! Can you tell I've been thinking about the guest room a lot lately? But seriously, these dressers look amazing with almost any color of paint on them, and I'd love to have one or two to use somewhere in my house!
(Craigslist Washington DC – $200)
I guess this one is technically more buffet than dresser, but it could be used as either one. I know some of you are looking at the finish on it and cringing, but I am actually just a little bit in love with it. It has that Anthropologie-ish vibe that I can never quite attain in my own house but always drool over it in other spaces. I think that this thing could easily be left alone and placed in a living room (or dining room, or bedroom – wherever, really) under a pretty vintage mirror with an eclectic collection of pretty things sitting on top of it. Gorgeous. Of course, if the Anthro look isn't really your thing, this buffet would also look fabulous painted. Or stained. Or whatever – it has amazing bones and would look awesome with just about any finish on it!
(Craigslist Washington DC – $150 each)
And finally, my other little crush right now – campaign style dressers. I can't tell if the photos are just deceiving or if this pair is really as deep as it looks like they are, but I think they're adorable. They would look great next to a couch or a bed – and my favorite color for campaign pieces right now is kelly green, thanks to Centsational Girl's post about her kelly green campaign style desk this week. So beautiful!
Okay, so I guess it's time for me to start packing. And maybe rob a bank so I can afford to buy all of these pieces once I make it to Washington DC. (Just kidding – I'm not really going to rob a bank. At least, I probably won't.)
Keep the Friday Finds requests coming, please! I'm having a blast virtually visiting all of your cities!
Is there a specific piece of furniture you're lusting after right now? Obviously I'm in the market for a dresser or two!
Wanna see a Friday Finds done in your area? Shoot me an e-mail at email@example.com and you can see what we might find in your town!

Jaipur, July 6 (IANS) An eight-year-old girl was raped and then murdered in Rajasthan's Pratapgarh district, police said Saturday.
According to police, the body of the girl was found in a forested area Saturday afternoon near Arnod town in the district, some 400 km from Jaipur.
Additional Superintendent of Police (SP) Bhagwat Meena said the girl was last seen around 4 p.m. Friday with Prahlad Kumar, a resident of the same village near Arnod to which the girl belonged.
"The family members kept searching for the girl throughout the night and today (Saturday). Some passers-by saw the girl's body in a necked condition lying in a forest area and informed police," he said.
He added that the girl had been raped and then strangulated to death.
"A search has been launched for the accused man who is on the run," said the officer.

The Good News (for everyone but Victor Lams): JJ Abrams is set to direct the new Star Wars flick.The Bad News: Sources now reveal that "JJ" stands for "Jar Jar".
The Good News (for everyone but Victor Lams): JJ Abrams is set to direct the new Star Wars flick.
I'd like to see the Coen brothers take a crack at Star Wars! Or Peter Jackson. Nobody does an epic like him these days. And as a bonus, he could work in a scene where Gollum kills off Jar-Jar. "We wring it's filthy neck, precious!"
I demand that you make a movie with that scene, or even just a movie consisting entirely of that scene. Crowdsource it. I'm certain it will smash all existing records for movie budgets.
And by crowdsourcing I meant kickstart it. More coffee now …
How about a plot where Jar-Jar gets recruited by The Sith and becomes the worst Dark Lord of all, surpassing The Emperor, Darth Vader, and Mark Shea.
No one can surpass Mark Shea in Dark Lordship.
On one hand, Abrams is infinitely better than George Lucas, so this is good for the franchise.
On the other hand, I'm worried that I won't be able to read the introductory scrolling with all the lens flare.
I told my daughter about the new directorship yesterday when I found out, and she was very excited. Her next Facebook post was : Help us, J.J. Abrams, you're our only hope.
I will have to break the bad news to her about his Jar Jar secret. Saying that name in our house gets a similar reaction to the name Haman during Purim.
I would have said: The bad news is, J.J. stands for Jar Jar, and he's going to start off by remaking the Star Wars Holiday Special.
J.J. is a great choice. My #1 choice would've been Brad Bird, but barring that, let's go with J.J.
I just hope his producer has the backbone to make him cut down on the lense flares.
You know, I was trying to work up some outrage over this but I was struck by the realization that J.J. Abrams really can't do anything to Star Wars (in terms of the ret-conning war-crime he did to Star Trek) that Lucas didn't already do in Episodes I-III.
So have at Star Wars, J.J. Abrams. Maybe that help you take your eye of Star Trek for a while and then we can get back to REAL stories in the REAL (i.e. TNG/DS9/Voy) continuity written by REAL Trek writers (Braga, Berman, Moore, and Behr)!
Cracked had an article about this a while ago. Basically, it was saying that Disney doesn't make bad movies. It sometimes makes mediocre movies (John Carter, etc.), and it frequently makes GREAT movies (did you know they did the Avengers?), but almost never makes a truly BAD movie.
Plus, if they're horrible, at least we'll get some fantastic Plinkett videos on Red Letter Media like we got for the prequels. And that's fine in my book.
JJ Abrams is *such* a safe choice…I'm kinda disappointed in it.
My choice would have been Chinese director Yimou Zhang (of Hero, House of Flying Daggers, etc).
Since Star Wars was originally a Sci-Fi version of Seven Samuri to begin with, I think a Chinese director would have been an interesting idea.
Normally I wouldn't nitpick, but this is the internet talking about Star Wars, so I figure I'm pretty safe. You were pretty close, but Star Wars is more based on Hidden Fortress, a different film by the same guy, Akira Kurosawa, who is Japanese. As are samurai in general. The more you know!
If you are looking for a Western version of Seven Samurai, check out Pixar's "A Bug's Life", which is pretty much the same movie at 1/1000th the scale.
Toshiro Mifune was Lucas's original choice to play Obi-Wan "Ben" Kenobi, but the studio insisted on a big name Western actor.
Can't I just watch The Magnificent Seven or Three Amigos if I want to watch a western version of Seven Samurai?
Ooh! JJ Abrams reboot of "A Bug's Life"!
Oddly enough, that's how Alias started.

BRICs and South Africa move to unseat dollar as trade currency
By Thandeka Gqubule and Andile Ntingi
City Press, Johannesburg, South Africa
Sunday, March 25, 2012
South Africa this week will take some initial steps to unseat the US dollar as the preferred worldwide currency for trade and investment in emerging economies.
Thus the nation is expected to become party to endorsing the Chinese currency, the renminbi, as the currency of trade in emerging markets.
This means getting a renminbi-denominated bank account, in addition to a dollar account, could be an advantage for African businesses that seek to do business in the emerging markets.
The move is set to challenge the supremacy of the US dollar. This, experts say, is the latest salvo in the greatest worldwide currency war since the 1930s.
n the '30s, several nations competitively devalued their currencies to give their domestic economies an advantage over others.
And this led to a worldwide decline in overall trade volumes at the time.
The north will be pitted against the entire south in a historic competitive currency battle — whose terrain has moved to the Indian capital, New Dehli — where the Brics (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) nations will assemble next week.
China seeks to find new markets for its currency and to lobby to internationalise it throughout the Brics states.
The Rest…HERE

Warsaw (Feb. 9)
Solomon Horowitz, a resident of the village Siennica in the district of Minsk-Mazowiecki, was elected sheriff of the village on January 25, but was barred from taking office by a decision of the District Governor.
The District Governor refused to confirm Horowitz's election on the basis of an old Czaristic law, according to which Jews are barred from the offices of sheriff or judge in such villages or counties where the population is not entirely Jewish.
The matter has aroused nation-wide attention in view of the persistence of the Club of Jewish Deputies for a number of years for the final abolition of the Czaristic anti-Jewish limitations in the Republic of Poland. Taking this case as further proof of the existence of the Czaristic laws against Jews, the Club of Jewish Deputies introduced an interpellation into parliament today asking the central authorities to overrule the objection of the District Governor as the application of the Czaristic law is contrary to the provisions of the Polish Constitution and to the provisions of the Versailles peace treaty.
The interpellation also points out that the government has repeatedly made assurances in parliament that the Czaristic restrictions against Jews are no longer in existence in the Republic.
Full details concerning the character and number of legal disabilities under which the Jews of Poland still suffer by the application of the old Czaristic laws, as enumerated in a recent interpellation of the Club of Jewish Deputies introduced into parliament, will be published in the issue of the "Jewish Daily Bulletin" of Wednesday morning.

Mary Fleming, the mother of 32-year-old Frank Sinatra, Jr., confirms that the hospitalized man is indeed the late star's grandson, but denies the 'blown out of proportion' suicide report.
The mother of Frank Sinatra's grandson has spoken out to clear up reports about his recent hospitalization, insisting the alleged suicide attempt has been "blown out of proportion". Emergency services were called to the home of Frank Sinatra, Jr.'s son, also named Frank, in Downey, California on August 2 and admitted a 32-year-old male to Downey Regional Medical Center.
Reports suggested Frank had tried to kill himself, while subsequent rumors claimed the man was not even a member of the famous family and simply shared the name of the late crooner's grandson. But Mary Fleming, who conceived the younger Frank Sinatra, Jr. after an affair with Ol' Blue Eyes' only son, has now confirmed the initial reports, admitting her 32-year-old son did spend a night in hospital earlier this month.
However, she claims the situation only occurred after his pals failed to reach Frank Sinatra, Jr. and overreacted when they found him in a deep sleep on his couch. She tells U.S. tabloid Globe, "He took one of his sleeping pills, lay on the couch and fell asleep."
Fleming reveals her son has been battling depression since the breakdown of his three-year marriage earlier this year and friends feared the worst when they thought he had overdosed on the sleeping aid. But she insists her son, who has been snubbed by his dad and the Sinatra clan, is not looking to end his life.
She says, "My son is not suicidal. But he has been extremely depressed. His wife walked out on him recently... He was absolutely devastated.... . Knowing how sad he was, his friends started freaking out because they couldn't get a hold of him. One called the police, who went in, found Frank conscious and took him to the hospital... They (doctors) quickly determined he wasn't suicidal. They didn't pump his stomach or give him medication. (He was) released the next day." She adds, "Now he just wishes all the drama would go away."

In law, malpractice is a form of negligence where a professional's actions fail to follow the generally accepted standards of the profession. The term is used in the medical profession to refer to the actions of Doctors in treating medical conditions.
One who feels as if they are a victim of malpractice can take legal action against the person responsible and attempt to recover money or other damages from that person.
In 2372, Quark believed himself to be a victim of malpractice after being informed by his doctor, Orpax, that he did not have Dorek Syndrome as he originally thought. Quark was overjoyed at the thought of being able to sue Orpax for malpractice, although the revocation of his Ferengi business license may have affected his plans. (DS9: "Body Parts")
In 2375, while under the influence of the Vinculum, Seven of Nine threatened The Doctor with a malpractice suit. (VOY: "Infinite Regress")

Alabama, Notre Dame present classic matchup
MIAMI — At a time when college football was generally considered the domain of eastern blue bloods, Notre Dame and Alabama were upstart teams that gave blue collar fans a chance to tweak the elite.
About 90 years later, the Fighting Irish and Crimson Tide are the elite — two of college football's signature programs, set to play a national championship game Monday in Miami that could break records for television viewership.
No. 2 Alabama vs. No. 1 Notre Dame. Even casual sports fans understand this is a college football classic.
"I think it's basically because they've won more national championships than anybody else, and they've been doing it since the '20s," said Dan Jenkins, an award-winning sports writer and author who is also the historian for the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame. "Plus they've had a bunch of gods coaching them."
He's right. And to understand just how Notre Dame and Alabama became touchstones for their uniquely American sport, you have to look back to the 1920s, when beating an Ivy League team was a huge deal, and there was nothing bigger than playing in the Rose Bowl.
"Up to that point college football was important but only in the fall," said Murray Sperber, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, who has written two books about the history of Notre Dame football. "The fans tended to be only alumni of the schools and local middle class people.
"And that was true of Notre Dame before Rockne became coach."
Knute Rockne was a Norwegian-born former end for Notre Dame, who helped his school to a head-turning upset of Army as a player and then took over as coach in 1918. He was media savvy, and intent on turning the football program into a national power. Part of his strategy: turning recent immigrants to the States, many of them Catholic, into Notre Dame fans.
Notre Dame was the college football team for the people who didn't go to college.
Yet for all the mythology and folklore around Notre Dame football, the biggest reason for its popularity was quite basic.
Few programs have won like Notre Dame. Alabama is one of them.
The Tide made a similar breakthrough in the 1920s under coach Wallace Wade. The Tide's big victory against the Ivy League came in 1922 against Penn.
"Back in those days, Alabama beating Penn was as surprising as if Penn were to beat Alabama today," said Kirk McNair, who worked as sports information director for Alabama during the 1970s and now runs Bama Magazine.
The Fighting Irish went to the Rose Bowl in 1925 to play Stanford. Notre Dame beat Pop Warner's Stanford team, 27-10.
Alabama won the 1926 Rose Bowl, 20-19, against Washington, went back to California in 1927 and tied Stanford 7-7. The Tide then won three more Rose Bowls from 1931-46, losing one.
Alabama hit hard times in the mid-1950s, but fixed its problems by bringing home one of its own. Under Bear Bryant, Alabama dominated the SEC and won six national championships between 1961-79.
And Bryant remains one of the most well-known figures in American sports. And you don't have to be from Alabama to know "Roll Tide" is more than just rally cry.
But he never beat Notre Dame in four tries. Former Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz said that always stuck with Bryant.
Holtz won Notre Dame's last title in 1988 and two years later the school inked a television contract with NBC to become the first school to have its own network television deal.
Both Alabama and Notre Dame went through hard times in the 1990s and early 2000s, trying to find the right coach to restore the magic.
Nick Saban arrived in Alabama in 2007, and the Tide have won two of the last three national championship and could become the first program to win three in four years since the BCS was implemented in 1998.
"I know there's a lot of national interest here because of two great programs that have tremendous tradition," Saban said as he stepped off Alabama's plane in Miami. "We certainly respect that on both sides.
"It's really a special game to be a part of."
Brian Kelly took over in South Bend three years ago, and like Leahy, Parseghian and Holtz before him, he has a chance to win a national title in his third season — against Alabama, no less.
The Fighting Irish against the Crimson Tide, a marquee matchup in any era.

Farmers' efforts to sell raw milk in Louisiana died Wednesday in a state Senate committee.
Supporters of House Bill 1279 pinned on "I love raw milk" buttons, assembled information packets and gathered 800 signatures on a petition. They pitched their product as a cure for medical concerns, including osteoporosis and lactose intolerance. They lobbied legislators. They even suggested that God is on their side.
"When God brought the Israelites to the land of milk and honey, he didn't tell them to boil their milk first," Rocky Branch farmer Matt Napier told the Senate Committee on Health and Welfare.
However, the bill clashed with concerns about the safety of unpasteurized milk.
State Agriculture and Forestry Commissioner Mike Strain predicted people would get sick from drinking raw milk. He said the health risk is 150 times greater than drinking pasteurized milk.
"We are charged, you and I, with public health, protection of public health," Strain said.
Only one committee member voted in favor of advancing HB1279. Four others voted against it.
"Good legislation sometimes takes time," state Sen. Fred Mills, R-St. Martinville, told disappointed raw milk supporters as they gathered their belongings and left the committee room.
HB1279 divided dairy farmers. In pasteurization, bacteria is killed by heating milk to a high temperature. Raw milk is unhomogenized. Louisiana is among 10 states banning raw milk sales. The other states are Hawaii, Nevada, Montana, Iowa, West Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, Delaware and Rhode Island.
Dairy farmer Joy Womack warned legislators that a little bit of feces could easily get into raw milk, creating a breeding ground for bacteria. "Pasteurization is very much needed," she said.
Napier, who runs a small farm in Union Parish, told legislators that they are more likely to get sick from eating a home-cooked hamburger or at a salad bar than they are from guzzling a glass of raw milk. He said no deaths have been associated with raw milk in the last decade.
"This nation is a nation of freedom. The freedom of basic food choice is one that never should've been taken away," he said.
Napier said raw milk is safe for commerce and consumption when handled safely and regulated.
Another dairy farmer, Melville resident Sierra Majors, said HB1279 doesn't authorize retail sales but the sale of a gallon of milk to a neighbor. She became a raw milk advocate after researching growth hormones added to milk and meat sold at the grocery store. Her husband brought home a goat for her birthday. Now they own cows.
HB1279 would allow farmers to sell up to 500 gallons of goat milk and whole milk a month that has not been pasteurized. The milk would be sold with a warning about the risk of foodborne illness.
The bill's sponsor, state Rep. Stephen Ortego, compared the warning to the one that accompanies the sale of raw oysters.
State Sen. Yvonne Dorsey-Colomb, D-Baton Rouge, told Ortego that the bill caused problems for her at home. Dorsey-Colomb's husband grew up in the country and drank raw milk as a child. She joked that he pressured her to vote in favor of the bill.
Dorsey-Colomb asked who would assume the liability if someone did become sick from drinking raw milk.
Majors said a customer could sue her and her farm, adding that HB1279 would require annual vet checks to ensure the animals are healthy. "We're law-abiding, educated citizens. We don't want to be made an example of in a courtroom," she said.
State Sen. Dale Erdey, R-Livingston, told the raw milk proponents that he once drank raw milk as a small child. He said he didn't like the taste and asked for horse milk.
"Why did we get away from raw milk?" Erdey asked, getting serious.
Majors blamed the Industrial Revolution. She said cows were brought into cities, away from the natural habitats. Ortego, D-Carencro, said cows were put into feeding lots. The result, he said, was food-borne illnesses.
"We're keeping it at a very small scale," he said, seeking to reassure the committee.
Strain stalked the back of the committee room during the raw milk proponents' testimony. He carried a fat stack of documents, including handouts of a May 2014 letter from Robert V. Tauxe, a deputy director at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
In the letter, Tauxe stated that pasteurization "is the only way to ensure that fluid milk products do not contain harmful bacteria." He wrote that reports were received between 2007 and 2012 of 979 illnesses and 73 hospitalizations related to raw milk consumption.
State Sen. Ben Nevers, D-Bogalusa, offered the proponents a suggestion. He said state law doesn't prohibit the sale of milk pails, suggesting farmers could put the price tag on the pail rather than the milk inside it.
Majors said she didn't want to do anything illegal that would take her away from her children.
"We're just asking a very simple, pretty please question," she said.
Mills, who was running the committee, received silence when he asked if anyone wanted to make a motion on the bill. Finally, he recommended that the committee advance the bill. The motion triggered an objection. The committee killed the legislation, which was just steps from final passage.
Voting FOR raw milk sales (1): Mills
Voting AGAINST raw milk sales (4): Sens. Sherri Buffington, R-Keithville; Dorsey-Colomb; Erdey; and Nevers

Operatic Comedy
Theater Reviews
a reputation for being light and insubstantial. It is the stuff that
provides levity from negativity and eases stress. However, just as a
laugh is not the opposite of a tear, comedy is not the opposite of
drama. Both can cover the same ground in ways that are equally
compelling. Even the most cerebral concepts can be explored in just as
much detail with just as much insight in comedy as they can in drama.
Stephen Temperley's Souvenir is a shining example of how comedy can cast a light into even the most abstract notions of the nature and value of art. The Skylight presents its production of Temperley's comedy now through March 30 at the Broadway Theatre Center.
The play, billed as "a comedy with music," is not actually a musical comedy. Based on a true story, Linda Stephens stars as early 20th-centuryNew York society lady Florence Foster Jenkins.
The play outlines the first meeting between Jenkins and McMoon, going on to illustrate key moments in their relationship as Jenkins' success as an unsuspectingly comedic singer takes her all the way to Carnegie Hall. In spite of a few tiresome moments, the production ends up being very well executed. Though the comedy wears thin in repetition, Stephens' deliberately bad singing comes across quite brilliantly.
The non-musical end of her performance as the soprano who doesn't know she can't sing is sweet enough to work well. Most of the work of rendering the mood of any moment however, is handled by McMoon as narrator. Here Carsey clearly shows the kind of charm and charisma that made him capable of tackling the post of artistic director for five years. His musical ability and brilliant sense of comic timing deliver a surprisingly engrossing evening held together by two people, a piano and some costumes.

When the weather warms up, it's important to take steps to ensure that your pet doesn't end up with heat stroke, a serious and potentially fatal condition.
There are a few things that can predispose or contribute to your pet ending up with heat stoke:
- Leaving a dog locked in a hot car (even in the shade and with the windows down)
- Confinement in any outdoor space without shade
- Restricted access to water
- Short-nosed or flat-faced dogs, dogs that suffer from bronchial problems or cardiovascular disease are in a high risk group for a predisposition to heat stroke
Symptoms of heat stroke include the following:
- Rapid, frantic, and noisy breathing
- Tongue, gums and other mucous membranes are bright red
- Saliva is thick/frothy and foaming
- Pupils may be slightly dilated or eyes may have a 'frantic' or stressed look
Extreme cases will include these symptoms:
- Unsteady, staggering gait
- Diarrhea
- Rectal temperature over 106 degrees Fahrenheit
What to do:
- Move to a cooler location immediately
- If the dog has a high temperature or a staggering gait, submerge dog in tub full of cool (but not freezing cold) water or hose off (making certain that the water is reaching the skin)
- Take your pet to the closest animal hospital and make sure that air conditioning is on full-blast. If you can, call ahead to let them know you're on your way with a heat stroke victim so they can prepare for your arrival.
- Many holistic vets recommend Rescue Remedy for heat stroke. This flower essence combination is available from most health food stores and can help to 'bring around' your pet en route to the vet. Rescue Remedy is not, however, a replacement for veterinary attention.

Man did I get a wake up call the other day. A guy from work told me that a friend of his killed a deer and wanted to get it mounted. He told me the story behind it and it is amazing. His friend is paralyzed and in a wheel chair from a auto accident. He was givin a special gun mount for his wheelchair from a guy who makes them in Churabusco, Indiana. It allows him to move and fire his gun with the limited use of his hands that he has. The guy at work made him a ground blind and went with him on the opening day of gun season in IN. He shot the deer first thing in the morning. At first it was not that big of deal to me, until I started thinking about the guy. I have taken so much for granted in my life that it makes me feel sick to my stomach. I get upset when I don't see the buck I want to shoot or I don't kill any ducks after hauling all my gear to the blind, But you know what? I am able to walk to my tree stand and to my duck blind. This guy is in a wheel chair for the rest of his life. He cannot walk anywhere! I bet we all have taken things for granted in our lives. When you start to do it again, just think of people like Jim Ray. I will remember this guy for the rest of my life. I have never met him personally yet, but I can"t wait till I do. The fellow making the mounts is making them for Buckmasters now from what I was told. They found out about the mounts and contacted him to make them for them.

I have been there for some time now , makes you wonder what else you have to learn doesn't it ? My son and I deliver Thanksgiving dinners to people that cannot get out of thier houses and you realize even more what gifts God has given you . Use them.
we all need a story like this from time to time to put things in their proper prospective.
A fellow from Jackson, Tennessee, taught me that lesson thirty years ago. I will let him remain nameless here. As a youngster, he rolled his trike out in front of an oncoming car. The resulting accident left him without the use of his legs for the remainder of his life.
This gentleman went on to become a college professor, but above that, a consummate sportsman. He excelled at trap shooting, among other things. He duck hunted from atop a four wheeler, used tree stands that he reached by climbing with arm strength alone. He obtained a pilot's license and flew single engine, private aircraft. He even took at least one African Safari that I remember.
Most people with physical limitations are capable of many things if they have the courage to venture forth. Sadly, it takes more than courage, it requires oportunity, and that often means the sacrifice of time and effort on the part of others in order that dreams may be realized by those less fortunate.
Years ago, Camp A.P.Hill in Virgina hosted a special deer hunt for disabled veterans and others in similar predicament. Hundreds of volunteer soldiers drove deer to the stands and ground blinds occupied by those vets, I was fortunate to have participated on two occassions.
And let us not forget those older sportsmen who, for one reason or another, no longer hunt and fish, sometimes because no one is willing to take the time to escort them to, from and in the field. We have all witnessed the decline of our mentors over the years. Most of them would like to do a lot more than talk about past outdoor adventures. They, like the disabled, just need a chance. Let us all try to give them that opportunity.
Good post, Tom
One of my customers called me and said he was bringing me a duck to mount. He said "things have changed since you saw me last..." He showed up in a wheel chair and explained that he was in a construction accident where an electric line fell on him. He lost both arms and one of his legs and almost didn't live through it. But now, he has artificial arms/hands and a leg and still loves to hunt ducks. I've since taken him a few times and it's amazing what he can do and at the same time makes me wonder what I would have done in the same situation. His wife also deserves credit for her strength and ability to work with him through the tough times. He's able to joke about his "bionic" arms now and I can "stick" him in the mud while I put out decoys, but it really makes you count your blessings at the end of the day.
Thanks for the post Tom.
I just finished a mount for a disabled gent, Deaf and cannot speak. Killed a monster whitetail in Ga. I cannot imaging how it must be for someone who is disabled to acomplish some of the things they do,especially when it comes to hunting. Being 58 years old myself and hunting and fishing all my life, I only can hope that if I live another 20 years, someone will wheel me out to the river or woods once in awhile.
is in a wheelchair has been for 9 yrs now. He was on his way to church and had a wreck in the pasture next to ours. His wife who didnt get up in time to go to church that morning. We were walking out the door on our way to the same church when we saw a police car go by then she calls to tell me to get up there.
Well now he hunts with my husband as they always have and we do mounts for him and the other "wheeling buddies" (as they put it) that hunt together on his fathers land. I mean there are six guys in this "hunting club" that are all in wheelchairs. Everyone that hunts around here checks in and makes sure if they need any help hauling deer or anything else. They are a great brunch of guys and really show us all that life isnt so bad.

Ford Announces Recalls
Ford announced a voluntary safety recall Friday of 1.4 million cars and trucks equipped with potentially faulty seat belt buckles.
According to Ford, the recall covers the 2001 Ford Crown Victoria, Windstar, Ranger, F-Series, Excursion and Expedition; the Mercury Grand Marquis, Lincoln Town Car and Navigator; and the Mazda B-Series truck built before May 26, 2001.
Less than 5 percent of the buckles will likely need to be replaced, Ann O'Neill of Ford's customer service division said in a statement.
"Our testing indicates that even among defective buckles, customers can help assure a proper latching of their seat belt if they push the tongue quickly and forcefully into the buckle, and then pull on it to help ensure the seat belt is securely latched," she said.
Ford spokesman Mike Vaughn. said that a small percentage of buckles on driver's seats and front right-hand seats may not fully latch, front center seats and rear seats are not affected, because they have a different designs.

Kids loved 'em. We had one kid over here who had never eaten grilled chicken wings before, so he was pretty happy!

Research Activities
My general area of research is theoretical condensed matter physics and quantum materials. I am currently working in the two areas of superconductivity and graphene-based materials.
Superconductivity is a phenomenon occurring at very low temperatures approaching absolute zero (-273C) where certain materials lose all resistance to the flow of electrical current and become perfect conductors. In recent times new families of superconductors have been discovered at a phenomenal rate. A major breakthrough came in 1986 with the discovery of the cuprate materials which superconduct at much higher temperatures than previously known. This mobilized unprecedented activity amongst scientists around the world due to the potential for applications and improvement in existing applications. Superconductors are used in a range of applications such as the high speed MAGLEV (Magnetic Levitation) train being implemented in Japan, superconducting cables for power transmission, industrial magnets, medical diagnosis with MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), etc. In addition, they are being developed as microwave filters for the communication industry and investigated for possible use in quantum computing. My own work has centered around calculating various experimental properties in order to test theories for the various manifestations of superconductivity occurring in newer materials. One of our group highlights was to propose a new experimental probe [angle-resolved specific heat (ARSH)] for determining the symmetry of the order parameter in exotic superconductors. This is done via measurements of the specific heat in rotated magnetic field. This proposal has been implemented by several groups in the U.S.A., the U.K. and Japan and has been shown to be successful in many materials. Identifying the symmetry of of the order parameter is felt to be key to identifying the mechanism of the superconductivity which in turn may lead to the discovery of new superconductors.
Graphene, a single sheet of carbon atoms, is a material which shows highly unusual properties because the electrons act like they have no mass. Isolated for the first time in 2004, this material may be able provide tests of fundamental quantum physics (notably the Dirac Hamiltonian for massless fermions) in addition to potentially revolutionizing microelectronics. Graphene has the highest charge mobility seen in materials at room temperature and can be patterned directly into an electronic device, including the contacts. Indeed, a single electron transistor has already been made from graphene. In addition to potential for fast electronics, graphene has unusual properties which may facilitate its use in surface coatings and photovoltaics. For instance, graphene might some day replace the current materials used in LCD displays. My research in this area has been on the topic of calculating the optical properties of monolayer and bilayer graphene which is important both for technological applications and also for understanding the unusual quantum physics seen in this material.

BERNE (Jan. 9)
New regulations which aim at depriving certain Jewish widows and orphans in Germany of the pensions to which they are entitled, were issued this week in Berlin jointly by the German Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Finance, and published in the Juedisches Nachrichtenblatt of Jan. 6 which reached here today.
The regulations provide that Jewish widows and orphans will henceforth receive not more than half of what non-Jewish widows and orphans of Jewish pensioners are to receive, and only when it is established that "all other means of support are exhausted." While payments to these widows and orphans who fall in the non-Jewish categories is to start automatically with the death of the Jewish head of the family, the survivors classified as Jews, will, under the new regulations, not receive such payment before they submit a petition for the pension to proper authorities. The beneficiaries classified as Jews are also required to immediately give notice of any change in their circumstances which might justify reduction or cancellation of their benefits.

BASINGSTOKE Bison have added their first new face to their line-up with the addition of speedy Bracknell Bees forward Grant Rounding, while back-up goalie Connor Standing has left the Herd.
Rounding, who lives in Eastrop, will add even more firepower to what is shaping up to be one of the best offensive units in the league.
The South African-born British forward moved to Basingstoke from Johannesburg when he was eight and started playing ice hockey for the under-10 Bison team before moving to Bracknell four years later.
The 23-year-old remained in Bracknell until the autumn of 2011, when he joined Wightlink Raiders, then in the English National League, where he was a line-mate of Bison fans' favourite Joe Rand.
His season was cut short on the island due to injury and the following year he suited up for the Bracknell Bees.
Last season, Rounding scored 11 times in a final points tally of 19, but he is best remembered for scoring the winning penalty shot in Bracknell's first-ever EPL win in Basingstoke against the Bison last November.
Bison player/coach Doug Sheppard is delighted with his latest addition and said: "I think Grant can get 15 goals next season. He is a fast skater who makes things happen and his work ethic makes him a great fit for the team."
Rounding is pleased to be pulling on a Bison shirt and said: "I feel it is like a home coming for me and I want to be fighting for trophies.
"I am really looking forward to it. I remember scoring the winning penalty and all my family were there. I hope to get the chance to score the winning penalty shot for the Bison this season."
Basingstoke-born teenage netminder Connor Standing has left the Bison after two seasons after being offered the chance of a starting goalie role with a National League South One side.
This is the league below where the Bison play and it certainly help his development so one day he will be able to return to the Herd as their number one goalie.
Sheppard said: "When Connor (Standing) told me he had the chance to become a starting goalie, I immediately agreed it would be the best move for him at this stage of his career. We wish him well for the future."
