Malignant obstructive jaundice is caused by tumors arising from the head of the pancreas and biliary tree, or seen due to secondary metastases in the porta hepatis lymph nodes. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that can be used for imaging the entire biliary tree and pancreatic duct system. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of MRCP in the diagnosis of malignant obstructive jaundice. The methods used involved comparative review of the images obtained by using magnetic resonance imaging and MRCP as well as comparison between MRCP- and pathology-based diagnoses. The accuracy of MRCP-based diagnosis of malignant obstructive jaundice was analyzed. Our data show that the positive rate of anatomical diagnosis and the detection rate of bile ducts on the proximal side of obstruction are 100%. The diagnostic accuracy of malignant obstruction was 82.9%. MRCP was found to have high diagnostic specificity for determining the location and extent of obstruction. We, therefore, concluded that MRCP had significance for clinical diagnosis of malignant obstructive jaundice. The positive rate of localization diagnosis was 100%. Distinguishing the quality of obstruction was also important. The diagnostic accuracy of MRCP for malignant obstructive jaundice was remarkably higher.

Stern administrative measures will be taken against workers who had participated in an anti-government demonstration at Writers Buildings on Friday, finance minister Asim Dasgupta told reporters on Saturday. The agitation took place during a pre-lunch pen-down strike at the behest of nine employees unions.
According to Dasgupta, special secretary to the finance department Bikash Majumdar will inquire into Fridays happenings at the state secretariat and submit his report to the government by October 7. Disciplinary action will be taken on the basis of his report, the minister said.
Nine trade unions, under the banner of the West Bengal Government Employees Union (Navaparjai), went for a pen-down strike at Writers Buildings on Friday to protest the governments 50 per cent slash in Puja bonus and advance for state government employees. They shouted anti-government slogans and displayed posters. In course of the day, members of the CPM-controlled Co-ordination Committee of the State Government Employees also got into a scuffle with reporters.
Addressing a press conference on Saturday afternoon, the finance minister said a government order would be passed on Monday, detailing plans for curtailment of non-plan expenditure and ways to raise revenue. Such measures would help save over Rs 500 crore for the state exchequer in the current year, he said.
Dasgupta claimed that the funds crunch the state government has been facing is solely because of certain Union government policies.
Everybody should appreciate that despite severe financial constraints, we are offering festival bonus and advance, the finance minister added. He dismissed as false propaganda the claim made by Navaparjai that many states, like Goa, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Assam, were paying bonus to their employees.
Dasgupta ruled out any immediate meeting with staff representatives as the atmosphere was not conducive for any such discussion.
Commenting on the Centres announcement of the Rs 878-crore mid-term loan, Dasgupta said it would not result in any major relief to the government unless the interest was reduced from 12 per cent to eight. He said West Bengal had neither received the loan nor any communication from the Centre on its request for reducing the interest. He, however, conceded that the loan would help ease the states financial crisis.
Dasgupta said one of the major reasons for the financial crisis was the additional burden the state had to bear for the enhanced pay recommended by the Fifth Pay Commission. We were compelled to raise the salary of state government employees as the Centre had done the same, the minister added.

Science, Facts, and Fun, Oh My! A Must Read
At the top. I don't usually like books when the author is also the narrator, but Garth Sundem does a great job.
He sounds like he is having a blast, and his enthusiasm is contagious.
There is an immense amount of valuable information. That is I found both practical and useful.
This question does not apply to this book.
Did I cry? That would be a big NO. Did I laugh? That would be a big YES!
I would highly recommend this book. It was both entertaining and educational.

I think if I were the type to murder someone, I would go the ancient Egyptian method and remove the organs, salt them and the body. Then expose them to high heat and low frequency sound waves to possibly shatter the remains into a powder.

New Delhi: Even as India blamed Pakistan-based 'elements' for the Mumbai attacks, Islamabad today proposed setting up of hotline between intelligence chiefs and National Security Advisers of the two countries for regular contact and information sharing to fight terror jointly.
"I proposed to let the intelligence chiefs meet. There should be a hotline between the intelligence chiefs and National Security Advisers of India and Pakistan so that we can share information timely and collectively in dealing with the menace," Qureshi said adding: "Let us cooperate and not accuse each other."
His comments came hours after External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee said that 'some elements' based in Pakistan are responsible for the terror attacks in Mumbai.
Contending that India is an 'important neighbour' for Pakistan, Qureshi said that he always advocated friendly co-existence between the two countries and that he has come here to 'build bridges'.
"I want to turn the tide from confrontation to cooperation," he said.

Still Looking
I am still looking for a job there is a chance i could be team lead at Reitmans but i need to open my availability for that. I really desire an office job , just a change from the faster pace of retail and the hours are better. I need to focus on my kids and their activities David joined the basketball team at school, i would like to see his games and be there for him. We also have piano going on to, which does take up some time with practise. Hubby might take the winch truck and do that more often which would be a major increase in his pay check which would be great then i dont have to work that much either . Time for family here , and focus and Love.

New Year New Job!
Since September I have been working at Reitmans. Looking after a couple of kids from Jesse and Shantal's classes. In December i let the hospital go, it was a hard decision but one that had to be made. I can no longer work in a negative environment, 13 years of being told I was not good enough for them was enough. So now I am hitting the pavement looking for other opportunities. I have an interview with a mortgage company later today and the hours are great. I will post the outcome when I know. Here are some photos of Shantal's 10th birthday partyand here is some from christmas
I will update again when i can trying to get back in the swing of it off to get ready for job interview wish me luck..

Enchanted Makeovers Celebrates 5 Years of Transforming Lives!
For the past 5 years, Terry Grahl and her team of volunteers have been on an enchanted journey. Their mission is to transform not only the lives of women and children living in shelters but volunteers and communities as well. See what's next!
Over the past 5 years, Terry has brought her unique approach to many shelters across the nation. The most comprehensive makeovers took place in her home state of Michigan. Terry starts with the premise that everyone is worthy. She and her group of volunteers physically improve shelters by turning them into whimsical cottage-like retreats. The shelter becomes a place where the residents thrive, now feeling hopeful for the future.
Based on the tremendous impact Enchanted Makeovers' projects/programs have had, this work needs to be brought to the next level. In order to extend the reach of this movement, Enchanted Makeovers has created a replicable model that can be adopted to empower all communities across Michigan and beyond. But presently, all activities are coordinated out of Terry's home she shares with her family of six. The leadership team and staff are running the mission from their homes across the country. This structure has limited the number of shelters that could be positively impacted by Enchanted Makeovers. The organization'
Enchanted Makeovers is looking for an angel investor who will help launch the mission to the next level! They are in desperate need of warehouse storage space and office space and are asking for a one-year tax deductible donation of both. If you know of an angel investor who can help in the Downriver Area, MI (Allen Part, Southgate, Lincoln Park, Trenton, Taylor, Riverview) please contact Enchanted Makeovers today! This donation will change the lives of many in ways never thought possible.

Dead Horse Ranch State Park
Tuzigoot National Monument
Shower head. Glass stained bath door. The extremely comfortable bed and softness of bedding. Starbucks was a nice extra touch. Wood flooring... the courtyard was quaint, unique we loved the stay.. Shelving over microwave.
Staff was phenomenal. They even called me in the morning after checkout to tell me that I left a phone charger in the room. Cute little Inn with great personality.
We've stayed in many many hotels all over the world and this was one of our favorite stays! From the personalized service from Tracy, to the excellently maintained rooms and courtyard, we can't fault this great little hotel. Rooms are small for a typical hotel but are more than compensated for due to a great layout, and all the amenities you could need. This was the first hotel EVER that we have stayed in that had two luggage racks in the room. I cannot find fault with the Iron Horse Inn and will stay here again on our next visit to the Cottonwood/Sedona area.... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Good location within walking distance of nice restaurants. Friendly staff at check in and check out. Room was very small by stairs to upper floor; stairs cut into the room making it even smaller. No individual light over the sink; had to use the room overhead lights to see at sink. Bath and room had been updated so very clean and nicely decorated. Interior courtyard had nice furniture to relax on; best place to get good wifi connection not possible in our room. Overall fairly quiet despite the room air conditioners running. Nice amenities in the guest coffee room: free Starbucks machine coffee plus fruit and ice machine.
Newly remodeled, but kept the quaint "old town" appeal. Loved the location and the shared courtyard. The coffee was the best we had on our whole trip! We loved the small cozy room but some might prefer more space.

Ethernet pulls into double diamond lane
Hold on to your computer mice. A new Ethernet high-speed study group kicked off this month. No targets or goals have been set yet but the expectation this IEEE group will have to wrestle with is whether it can define a spec for 100Gigs. Yowsa!
The group kicks off the same month the IEEE finally ratified a standard for 10Gbit Ethernet over copper. Some engineers are just recovering from the Herculean efforts that required including a major shift in cabling, signaling and on and on.
Hats off to John D'Ambrosia (pictured), the energetic and omnipresent IEEE standards maven from backplane Ethernet who was elected to chair the new group. He'll need all the energy and mellow spirit he can muster to ride this wave.
"Everything is on the table at this point, and we do not see this as the last of the high speed Ethernet study groups" D'Ambrosia told me in an interview for a story you can find Monday at eet.com by searching for 100G.
Next big meeting is November in Dallas. Stay tuned! --rbm

text: One of the best tips I received a couple of years ago when I started flying and filming still rings true today. Don't fly in GPS mode. It is such a common problem with DJI products that people have GPS issues and the best way to get smooth footage and avoid those issues is to always fly in Atti mode. There are a couple of problems with flying in Atti mode but these problems can be avoided with PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE! When you are in Atti mode the craft strives to maintain level flight with no stick input and maintain altitude but THAT'S IT! If the craft is moving and you let off the sticks it will keep moving in the direction it was going so you have to have situational awareness and realize the craft will not park itself in the air when you cease stick input. The WORST part about GPS mode is that when you are filming and you let off the sticks it jerks to a halt and is constantly fighting you when minimal stick input ventures into neutral stick position which ruins smooth shots. I encourage anyone that wants to get good smooth footage to learn how to fly exclusively in Atti mode and only use GPS to park the craft. If you can get into the habit of launching, flying and retrieving the craft in Atti mode you will be a better, smoother, and safer pilot. All of these amazing GPS tools should be a backup when talent runs out, a safety net as it were. If you are rarely using GPS mode you will almost completely avoid the already rare GPS problems with DJI products and get smoother prettier shots...and it flies and maneuvers faster too!!!!! Practice Practice Practice!

descriptionVinyl LP pressing. 2013 release. In early 2003, a young writer/director contacted Explosions In The Sky requesting permission to use one of their songs in his second film, All the Real Girls. Fast-forward a decade: the band's music has become an integral part of countless film and television programs; Green is an internationally renowned, impressively eclectic filmmaker; and David Wingo is a highly acclaimed film composer and leader of acclaimed indie-rock group, Ola Podrida. They've all become very close friends, and that tight-knit friendship spawned Green's stirring new film, Prince Avalanche. Much like the film, the soundtrack stitches dozens of tiny moments of heartfelt brilliance into an emotionally resonant whole far more expansive than its intimate roots might imply. Explosions In The Sky excel at making even the most mundane moments in everyday life seem downright revelatory. David Wingo and David Gordon Green have made careers out of pulling off similar feats in film. It was only a matter of time before these guys all collaborated, and Prince Avalanche delivers on the inspired expectations of such a union.

Richard slid his thumb down the ass crack of the blond boy first.
The kid was naked, and kneeling on the floor of the bondage club basement. He was probably twenty or so, thin but not particularly athletic. He had a septum ring, which is what first caught Richard's eye when the kid walked through the door of the club that evening.
Richard had chatted him up and liked what he heard. The kid wanted to obey, and was looking for an embarrassing scene to do with a group. Richard grabbed him by the arm and led him downstairs, then ordered him to strip and kneel.
A little light brown hair swept across his chest, but his pubes were thick. The kid was shy - or at least he was pretending to be - and covered his dick his hands.
Next to him was the soccer player, also kneeling. He had come straight from the gym, as Richard had ordered after their last session. He was sweaty and reeked, the pits of his t-shirt drenched and his athletic shorts musky and humid. He was studying the blond boy out of the corner of his eye, curious about this newcomer.
And next to the soccer player was an unfamiliar submissive. Richard hadn't seen this one before, but his friend Toby had sent him down tonight. Toby ran the wrestling pit on the first floor of the bondage club and knew Richard's tastes, and if there was a wrestler that he thought Richard would like, he'd personally pin him in the ring, then send him downstairs to be humiliated.
Richard wasn't sure what to make of this one. He was wearing a sleeveless hoodie, and had big muscular arms. The hood was up so you couldn't see his face. The wrestler was kneeling, his hands on the ground and his head held down. Richard was intrigued, but he'd save this one for last.
"Hands behind your head," Richard said to the blond.
The kid smiled and obeyed. Richard cupped the kid's ass cheeks, which had just a light dusting of blond hair, and the boy hummed happily.
Richard slapped him hard on the ass. "Quiet," he said.
"Yes sir," the boy whispered. He had a big broad stupid smile. It was his first time at the club, and he didn't know all of Richard's rules yet. But he'd learn.
Richard flicked the kid's septum ring. He was standing with his crotch right in the kid's face.
"Take my dick out," he said.
The blond unzipped Richard's jeans. He wasn't wearing anything underneath, and the kid pulled Richard's semi-hard dick from his pants. He opened his mouth and leaned in to suck it, but Richard grabbed him by the chin to stop him.
"No dick sucking. No ass fucking."
The kid leaned in again to suck Richard's dick anyway. Richard slapped him. "Do as I say," he said.
"Yes sir," the boy said again, looking chastened.
Richard rubbed the kid's chin, then slid his thumb into his mouth.
"You want something to suck? Take this," Richard said. The boy closed his mouth on Richard's thumb and massaged it with his tongue.
"Good," said Richard. "You need to learn to obey." He pulled his thumb from the kid's mouth and slapped him, but softer this time. The blonde grinned his big dumb grin again at that.
Richard looked over at the soccer player. His smell was strong, manly, sour. The soccer player was kneeling next to the blond, his arms up over his head for inspection.
Richard grabbed the back of the blond's head and pushed it into the soccer player's armpit.
"Inhale," said Richard, but the boy struggled a bit. Richard gripped the back of his head more tightly and shoved it again. "Follow commands," he said. "Inhale."
The blond took a deep breath. Richard slapped him hard on the ass again. "Keep your face in there. Breathe it in," he said. The kid obeyed.
The soccer player ignored the blond in his armpit and just stared up at Richard. "How long was your workout?" Richard asked.
"Two hours, sir," said the soccer player.
"What did you do?"
"An hour of lifting. Then an hour on the treadmill."
"How do you feel?"
"I'm so sore, sir," said the soccer player.
The mysterious newcomer hadn't moved during any of this. Meanwhile, the blond was still breathing deeply in the player's armpit. Richard grabbed him by the back of the neck and pulled him out.
"Look at this one," Richard said. "He knows how to obey." Richard grabbed the blond's head with both his hands and stared deep and close into the young man's eyes. "I control you now. You do what I say. Everything I say. You obey me. Got it?"
"Yes sir," whimpered the blond.
"Undress him," Richard ordered, letting him go again. "With your mouth."
"Uh," said the blond, a little unsure. He looked at Richard, confused.
Richard grabbed him by the back of the head, and pushed his face into the soccer player's crotch. "Pull it down," he ordered.
The blond bit the waistband of the shorts and pulled them down. Under his workout gear, the soccer player was wearing the latex underwear Richard had given him. It was formed so that the dick fit into a latex sheath, with just the head exposed. In back, there was a nub inside the ass that pressed against the butthole. And there was a small latex loop down at the taint. The purpose of that would become clear soon enough.
The blond had managed to pull the shorts down around the player's knees, and with a little fumbling they were both able to disentangle him from the shorts altogether. The shirt went next, and soon both subs were kneeling again. The blond was naked, the soccer player in the underwear Richard had supplied.
"Good," said Richard. "Lie on your back," he told the player. The soccer player obeyed silently.
"Put your face under his balls," said Richard. The blond knelt down on the floor and pushed his nose up against the latex loop in the taint of the underwear. The soccer players balls and dick lay against his face, the exposed tip of the dick leaking pre-cum.
Richard took a little clasp from his pocket and reached down to the blond's face. He snapped one end of the clasp around the kid's septum ring, and the other into the latex loop. The blond was now attached by his nose to the soccer player's taint.
"You're going to stay there for a while," Richard told the blond. "Your face is going to reek of ball sweat when we're done. And soon enough, of cum. You're basically a cumrag from now on."
"Yes sir," came the blond's muffled voice.
"Jerk off," Richard told the soccer player. "Cum on his face. If you can do it in under 5 minutes, I'll let you lick my balls."
"Yes sir," said the soccer player as he set to work. Richard turned his attention to the hooded newcomer.
"Look at me," Richard said. The wrestler looked up, and Richard was surprised to see that he looked a little scared. It was unusual for one of the subs to actually be frightened, and Richard thought about ending the scene so he could make sure the guy was okay.
"What's your name?" he asked. He didn't usually ask.
The wrestler just barked. Realistically. It sounded exactly like a dog. Then he looked ashamed.
Richard shrugged. Okay, so that was the game. A little pup play. Fine. He patted the wrestler on his still-hoodied head. "Good boy," he said.
He circled around the wrestler, taking him in. He really was a big buff muscle-head. Richard was surprised Toby had been able to pin him to send him downstairs.
Tucked in the band of his jockstrap was a note, and Richard pulled it out.
"Have fun with this one," Toby had written. "He really knows his obedience training."
Richard bent down to look at the man. He still had a fearful look in his eye that Richard wasn't quite sure how to read. "Toby says you can do tricks," he said. The wrestler's eyes darted around nervously.
"Shake," said Richard. The wrestler held up a hand, his fingers curled to make it more of a paw.
"Good boy," said Richard. "Lie down."
The wrestler put his arms down on the ground and lay on his stomach.
"Good boy," Richard said again. He rubbed the wrestler's head, still wearing the hoodie, and the man rolled over onto his back, arms and legs held up in a classic rub-my-belly pose.
Richard could get a better look at him now. He had a thick beard that grew down his neck into what looked like a thick chest pelt.
"You're a hairy fucker, huh?" Richard said. The man barked again.
Richard unzipped the man's hoodie and saw that his chest was unbelievably hairy. "Oh man, look at that," Richard said. He rubbed the chest hair, and the man started panting happily. "Who's a good boy?" he said.
The man barked again, and again. He whined a little bit, then barked once more and looked over to the stairs.
Toby was descending, wearing an assless wrestling singlet. He was big and burly, not as muscular as the pup on the floor but still intimidatingly strong.
"Having fun?" Toby asked. "I heard the barking. He had quite a mouth on him until I took his voice away."
The wrestler whined and covered his mouth with his hands.
"Nice job on this one," Richard agreed. "Super sexy with all that hair."
"Thanks," said Toby. "The hair's a new addition. My own little touch."
Richard looked confused. "What's that supposed to mean?"
Toby looked smug. "You want to know how I got him so obedient? And took away his voice?" he asked.
Richard shrugged. "The usual sub training?"
Toby shook his head. "Nope. I'm trying a new technique. This one's my first experiment and I think he came out perfectly. Heel!"
The man rolled back over and trotted on all fours over to Toby, then sat down next to him on his haunches like a dog. He looked up at Toby and whined plaintively.
"Check this out," said Toby, pulling the hoodie off of the man's head at last.
"What the hell?" gasped Richard. The man's ears weren't human - they were dog ears, pointy and furred. Exposed, the man looked panicked and afraid. He howled.
"Quiet," said Toby, and he stopped.
"What is this?" Richard said, bending down to touch the man's ears. They were warm, soft, and he could feel the muscles moving them slightly as he petted the cowering man. They were definitely real. The man hung his head, but let Toby inspect him.
Toby held up a little white pill. "I got this a few months back from my regular dealer. A small dose makes subs super-obedient. It's been working great. So tonight I experimented with a bigger dose, and this is what we got."
Richard looked baffled. "You're telling me you have a pill that turns people into dogs?" he said. "That's ... well it's ridiculous."
Richard shrugged. "That's what I thought. But look. I gave him a small dose and he was totally under my command. Did whatever I said. Then I gave him a bigger one and told him he could only bark, and he lost his voice. One more dose and I told him he was furry, and he grew that chest pelt. Told him he had dog ears, and that came true too. Watch what happens when I give him another suggestion."
He looked down at the man. "You're a good boy. You always do what you're told," said Toby. The man looked up at him, frightened. He barked again.
"Grow a tail," said Toby.
There was a rustling sound from the man's ass. Richard couldn't believe what he saw: hair sprouting above the ass crack. A little nub formed, hairy and short, but steadily growing. It pushed out from the man's butt, extending longer and longer. It started to wag as it descended down over the ass, the hair growing longer and longer. The tail pushed out until it nearly touched the ground.
"Good boy," said Toby. The man looked around, confused, then felt something brushing his butt, looked back over his shoulder, and saw the tail. He yelped in surprise. His tail tucked between his legs.
Toby laughed. "What do you think?" he said to Richard.
Richard was agape. He knelt down and patted the cowering man on the head. "Did he agree to this?" Richard asked.
"Yeah," said Toby, "But I don't think he believed it would actually work. I'm not sure I did either."
The man howled unhappily. He pawed at his new tail with his hands, still balled up like paws.
"Can you change him back?" Richard asked.
"I honestly don't know," said Toby. "Maybe I'll just change him all the way into a dog."
The man looked up at him in shock.
"Oh don't worry," Toby smiled, "I'll take good care of you."
"Can I try it?" Richard asked.
Toby shrugged. "Do what you want."
Richard rubbed the man's head, petting him gently. "Good boy," he said, and the man nuzzled his head against Richard's hand. "You've got your human voice back."
The man howled when he heard that, then the howl turned into a series of short barks. Each one sounded a bit more scratchy and rough until Richard could hear a human grunt in them.
"Wruff - ruff - ugh - uh - oh God," panted the man. "Ugh - thank you. Thank you sir." He looked up at Richard. "I didn't know. I didn't know it would work, that I'd be ... that I'd be this."
"Don't thank me yet," said Richard. "Your whole body is covered in fur."
"Oh please sir no!" the man cried. "Ugh I can feel it growing!"
A brown dusting materialized across his back, his muscular shoulders, his brawny arms. The fur grew in fast, covering him first around his neck, then down his back to his tail. The arms grew shaggy all the way down to his wrists, and his thick thighs and calves soon followed.
"Please," he panted. "You made me a freak. Please turn me back." He looked back at himself and winced. "I can't go out like this. I can't hide this tail."
"Quiet," said Richard. "You like it." The man shut up. Richard slowly patted his head and the man closed his eyes and instantly calmed down. Richard slid his hand down the man's furry back and scratched just about his tail. The man moaned.
"How's that?" said Richard.
"That's real nice, sir," said the man.
"Good boy," said Richard. "You like being a pet. It's what you're made for." He looked up at Toby. "How long does this last?"
"And hour, maybe two," said Toby. "Then their changes revert, and they stop being so obedient."
"You hear that?" said Richard. "You'll only be a dog a little while longer."
"But I wanna be your pet," panted the man, wagging his tail.
"Then you'll have to keep coming back," said Richard, still scratching the spot by the tail. "And we'll make you a dogboy again."
"Yes sir," then man panted. He rolled over and exposed his furry belly. Richard gave it a rub, then jerked the man's still-human dick. "And maybe we'll play with this thing next time."
To Toby, he said, "so in small doses it just makes people obedient? No body changes?"
"Yeah," said Toby. "You want some?"
Richard looked back over to the wrestler and the blond. He'd almost forgotten they were there. The wrestler had just finished jizzing on the blond's face and looked pretty pleased. The blond was whimpering a bit. He probably wanted to be released.
"Yeah," said Richard, "I have some ideas."

When I went to UTA I thought that we were going to tour and have fun. Even though I thought that sitting down was really boring I still had fun. The best part of the field trip was the science show. BUT I'm still glad they tried to keep a smile on my face.
The thing that I didn't like was sitting down the entire time, from my point of view we could of toured the inside ,but the classes that were going on and all of those schools I knew we couldn't do that.
I wont apply to UTA because I really love A&M, really think I should go to A&M because people know me their and I have friends and I just really want to go to A&M and become an AGGIE. UTA looks fun but I want to go to a new college .
I hope that we get to go to tour UTA again in avid, and I'm really looking forward to it, and I cant wait to hopefully tour UTA next year. Now if we don't get to tour UTA like we did this year I know not to complain.
Also, thank you so much for taking me to the UTA field trip.

Online Petition Seeks Release of Sevan Nisanyan
VIENNA, Austria — A petition started on change.org seeks the release of Sevan Nisanyan, the Turkish-Armenian journalist who has been arrested on various charges since 2012. He has been held in a maximum-security prison since 2014. He was arrested on charges of violating zoning and building codes, charges which do not merit the harsh sentence. He has been a vocal and longtime critic of the regime.
Almost 12,000 have signed it so far.
The petition, which is reproduced below, is being sent to Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu:
Sevan Nisanyan (60), a prominent Turkish intellectual of Armenian origin, was handed a cumulative jail sentence of 16 years and 7 months after he made the fatal mistake of using mocking language about Muhammed, the prophet of Islam, in a blog entry in September 2012. He has been held in a maximum-security Turkish prison since January 2, 2014. He will not be eligible for parole until 2024.
Nisanyan is a man of multiple achievements. Graduate of Yale (BA 1979) and Columbia (MA 1983), he taught linguistic history at Istanbul's prestigious Bilgi University. His Etymological Dictionary of Modern Turkish (first ed. 2002, currently in 3rd ed.) is the main work of reference in its field. He has also written frequently on cultural and historical topics – erudite, witty and often provocative studies of the Turkish national psyche. His targets have included Atatürk and Islam, two "untouchables" of Turkish public discourse.
Nisanyan is also known for Sirince, an ancient hill village in the South Aegean, where he has lived with his family since 1992. A self-taught architect, Nisanyan led the effort to preserve and renovate the village, using strictly traditional techniques and forms. Along with Ali Nesin, a prominent mathematician, and others, he founded a series of unconventional academic institutions in Sirince, including a mathematics institute, a philosophical academy and a theater school. His work received awards, and was nominated for the prestigious Aga Khan Award for architecture.
In recent years Nisanyan wrote often about the rising Islamic threat to liberties. On 22 Sept. 2012, in response to a proposed government bill to tighten blasphemy laws, he wrote that mockery of "an ages old Arab leader who made political, financial and sexual profit by claiming contact with Deity" must come under the protection of free speech. His statement was vilified by several close associates of Mr. Erdogan, then prime minister. He was demonized in the pro-government press. Demonstrations in the southeastern city of Batman called for his death. In May 2013 he was sentenced to 15 months of jail under art. 216 of the Turkish Penal Code, which regulates "insulting religious sensibilities" – the third time that this article was invoked in recent years, and the first time ever that it was applied to a member of a non-Muslim minority.
This case, however, was allowed to languish at the Court of Appeals, where it seems likely to remain for a long time. Instead, the high court took up more than a dozen cases involving minor legal infractions in connection with Nisanyan's building activities in Sirince, and handed down drastic sentences for each case. These sentences now add up to 16-plus years, and yet more may be the come.
For anyone familiar with the workings of the Turkish legal system, it is obvious that the construction charges are a smokescreen, and Nisanyan is punished for his political and religious impertinence, made graver by the fact that he is an ethnic Armenian. Nisanyan is currently the only person in Turkey who is actually in jail under Law 2863, art. 65, which governs "unlicensed construction in a historical heritage site" and this, in a country where over half of all construction is estimated to be illegal, and the presidential palace, completed in 2014, was itself built without license on a listed heritage site in defiance of a court injunction.

I have been a longtime fan of Roger Ebert. If you don't know know who he is or what he is battling, and winning, I must add, you can read the Esquire article.
Roger Ebert: The Essential Man
It has been nearly four years since Roger Ebert lost his lower jaw and his ability to speak. Now television's most famous movie critic is rarely seen and never heard, but his words have never stopped.
I too am an avid reader. When not swamped working, I try and read 2 - 3 books a week. I do not have a TV and feel that reading helps me think, create and maintain a certain state of mind, that in this world of chaos (shootings, war and poverty), incompetence (BP, car recalls and our politicos) and general pop culture nonsense (Hi Britney!), reading keeps me sane. Well, as sane as I can be?
I have followed Roger Ebert on Twitter (@ebertchicago) since day one. You should too. This is a man of pedigree, sensibilities and depth. Regardless whether you agree with his politics, you should hear him out. it is like reading a good book.
This latest article by him is so thought provoking, so deep in meaning - I suggest you go read it. Will do ya good!

One of my favorite courses I teach is Creative Development. It is an amazing team builder and so much fun to facilitate!
Developing the Creative Craft
Socrates wrote that inspired thoughts originate with the gods, ideas coming not when a person is rational, but when someone is "beside himself", when "bereft of his senses. Since the gods take away reason before bestowing the gift of inspiration, "thinking" might actually prevent the reception of divinely inspired revelations.The word "inspiration" is based on a Greek word meaning the God within.
One aspect of a creative personality is the fluency with which he/she generates a number of new ideas. Not only does the creative person think of good ideas, but he/she can think of many ideas, explore them, and record them. If you feel a need to quantify your creative ability, go to a local psychologist and ask about taking a test to measure your creative ability. If you live near a college or university approach their psychology department with this request. But recognize that creative ability can be learned, improved upon, and increased over time.

What is everyone's take on this? Two thumbs up? Great viral? Or????
It isn't only that people don't learn to write, because they don't acquire the habit of reading. It takes time to teach people how to write. You have to learn grammar and syntax, and you must read because there's no other way to learn it. And that's not the way it's [taught] in many of our schools. We're not teaching it that way.
Ten years ago I taught a course at Yale University in writing, and it was a course for credit, it was not just one of these visiting celebrity type things. These are very bright kids, they were juniors and seniors, and I had twelve of them in the class, and I made the mistake of saying -- it was thirteen weeks, and I said there'd be a paper every week. I had no idea how hard that was going to be to correct those papers. These were kids that supposedly wanted to become writers of some sort, and so the first essay I assigned them was "What do you read?" And "very little" were the answers on the twelve papers. I mean, they read one or two magazines and they would read -- let's say as a junior they would read Dickens' Great Expectations and they'd read it very carefully and they'd be able to analyze -- you know, follow the course instruction and analyze it on five levels of allegory and six levels of symbolism, and so forth. And then I'd say to them, "Well, did you ever read another novel by Dickens?" and it had never occurred to them! Of the twelve kids in the class, three could write, three almost could write, and the other six simply couldn't. It was painful. They were very, very bright, but their heads were filled with images.I've seen eighth grade examinations that were given in Kansas in the 1880s and there's no Harvard student in the world that could even come close to passing one of these tests. Because without the phone and without the television, people would read. I, at one point, was going to do a television show on the exploration of the American West in the 1840s, the Western movement, and I read letters, many, many letters from individuals traveling in the trans-Mississippi west, writing back to their families in the east, and they're amazingly wonderful letters. The spelling's not right, but the fluency of the language and the ease -- and these are not university students. But it was a natural language. It was as natural to them to write as it would be to us to talk on the telephone.
1941 the average vocabulary of a high school senior was something like 9000 or 10,000 words, and four or five years ago when I last saw the statistic it was down to 5000 words. That's a result of television, of the broadcast discourse.To alleviate this, the way we write, I believe, should be the way we speak. It is a start until you develop your style or voice. My personal voice ticks people off sometime. I am sorry about that, but it is my voice and, right or wrong, it gets the point across. I have never written to get everyone to agree with me. I write down what I believe. And put my heart on my sleeve.
Apple recently announced that they have absolutely no plans to enable Flash content on iPhones, iPods or iPads and this has made everyone in our business re-think the utilization of Flash in web content. But the more conventional wisdom would be to think multi-platform. Think inclusive rather than exclusive.
What this announcement really brings home is the difference between the wired and mobile web. The world is changing and mobile devices are leading the way. If popular devices such as Apple's repertoire do not support one of the most popular animation applications on the internet, an adaptation or a correction if you will, has to take place somewhere down the line.
One thing seems certain. The adaptation will not come from Apple. They have listed reason after reason why their devices will not support Flash.. And all these reasons are quite valid. Apple believes in the open web, and Flash is closed and proprietary (even though many of their products, including the operating system on the iPhone, iPod and iPad are proprietary). This closed third-party architecture can be quite ubiquitous for developers when trying to integrate with these platforms. From a more basic perspective, Flash doesn't support touch navigation, which is a biggie, and can be a big drain on battery life. Another biggie.
So I get it. I understand Apple's position. It makes sense.
That doesn't change the fact that this stance they are taking is completely incompatible with today's web. So many sites offer Flash today as a central part of their content. The smart sites detect if a the Flash player is available, and if it is not, it serves up a boring placeholder image, and that cool user experience is lost. It's not Apple's fault. It certainly isn't Adobe's fault. And it also really isn't the designer's fault either. It is the fault of the web as we know it today. The web is primarily designed for the wired, not the mobile device.
Yes, there are plenty of mobile versions of sites being produced. Basically, these are stripped down versions of websites, lightweight interpretations that play nicely in the mobile world. But the iPhone offers an interface canvas that can easily allow for all the bells and whistles. The iPad in particular certainly should be able to keep up with the media rich content of today's web, no? Considering that you can play HD quality video on the thing!
What we have here is a complete change from what we expected a few years ago. Back then we were starting to see platforms coming together, making web design simple in that it was truly becoming a build once, run anywhere medium. But that has changed because the media has changed. Mobile users demand that content be delivered compatible with the devices they own, and at the same time, they will be unimpressed with the overly stripped-down. We are reaching a time where content from the world wide web will need to dynamically and drastically adjust for the platform, and web designers will be challenged to make that happen. Even more challenged will be the agencies as they try to convince their clients that they don't just need to add the mobile version for their website, but the iPad, or touch navigation version as well.

Use our downloadable Priority Index Tool to guide you through the prioritization process, and help you drill down on the value added for each proposed initiative.What are the Most Important considerations?
Back in the day brands would stand on the mountain top and shout their sole purpose for existing - the one compelling reason people should make them part of their everyday lives. I remember days of yore where businesses would go to war to defend their value-propositon and rally resources around ensuring they had purpose in people's hearts.
But alas, those days seem to have gone.
A classic case in point is Toyota. Back then Quality with synonymous with the manufacturer along with its sidekicks Reliability and Dependability. This holy-trinity took it from a Japanese domestic producer to a global juggernaut that redefined manufacturing with the constructs of JIT (just-in-time) management and Kaizen respectively. If you listen carefully you can almost hear the fading echoes of the single-mined zaibatsu screamings from the top.
Where did it go wrong? How can a brand built on the bastion of Quality, an excellent thing, have its offspring recalled due to its lack thereof?
Oh cry the beloved car.
I believe they did one thing wrong – they decided to muddy their sole-purpose-for-being with other purposes for being in the hope of capturing more owners.
Fragment your laser-like focus and you land up where Toyota is today…back on the mountain top screaming Quality on deaf ears. Problem is exactly that, the damage has been done. Toyota has broken the trust of its people, much like a partner finds out their partner has been cheating. No matter how much they work on the relationship there will always be a whispering doubt that it could happen again.
Now what I do admire about Toyota is that they had a single brand purpose to begin with. Most brands don't – they may think they do but they don't. And that is why I wish Toyota the best of luck because they are embarking on something that is one of the hardest things to do in business – regaining something that you once were a leader in but lost along the way.
I am infinitely interested in this outcome as it will serve as a great case supporting Kevin Roberts' and Saatchi's philosophy of Lovemarks, the likes of which create loyalty beyond reason.
I leave you with this – a business must find its sword and fall upon it at every opportunity because only then will people keep choosing to include it in their everyday lives. And please, keep the sword in its pure-form.

A chunky edition of 'Country Life' is not a reliable indicator of the market, writes House Rat
Country Life magazine landed on coffee tables last week with a particularly resounding thump. Containing 107 pages of property - 169 houses for sale - it was the heaviest April edition in the magazine's history, and compares with the 50 or so pages taken out this time last year, when the war in Iraq brought the market to a virtual standstill.
The extra weight came from The Mayfair Office, a national network of 120 independent estate agents, which took out an unprecedented 44 pages. This was designed to reflect "the buoyancy of the country house market". It was also, I was told, "an opportunity to make a splash and create conversation". And why not?
Were Country life advertising a reliable indicator of confidence and the supply of good property on the market, this apparent surge would come as a relief all round. To buyers from central London, for instance, who could at last sell their Victorian terrace in the booming market (the fastest rising prices in the country last month) and make their long-awaited move to the country. To frustrated estate agents, who have had nothing substantial to offer eager buyers. And to search agents, who have had little to show wealthy, demanding clients.
Except that a chunky edition of Country Life is not a reliable indicator of the market. In this case, it is misleading. Until last week the magazine was a good deal thinner, and will, in all likelihood, return to a slender form this week. Indeed a few houses in its pages this spring have looked distinctly familiar, having been dusted down and relaunched after failing to shift. The word from agents is that there is still little on the books.
"Nothing of real quality is coming onto the market," says one Oxfordshire-based buying agent, who reports a dearth of good stock. When a great property does come up - a secluded cottage down a quarter-mile track, a manor house in its own parkland - there is heated competition, and it commands a 10 per cent premium.
That said, many agents expect a lively May - traditionally, as the leaves come out, so too do the best properties. But will stock levels rise to meet the demand? People will sell only if they really need to, seems to be the message. And four per cent stamp duty on properties over £500,000 remains a strong incentive to stay put.
