Sonya Rose - Service and Sacrifice: Colonial Troops and the First World War
Birkbeck Institute for the Humanities
Wednesday, 14 March 2012 from 12:30 to 14:00 (GMT)
Event Details
Birkbeck Institute for the Humanities
Sonya Rose - Service and Sacrifice: Colonial Troops and the First World War
Wednesday 14th March 12.30 - 2.30 Room G16 Birkbeck Main Building
This seminar will explore what historical scholarship suggests about how the meanings of the key wartime concepts of service and sacrifice resonated across Britain's colonial empire. It will consider what it meant under different circumstances to 'volunteer' and will assess how colonial participation in the war effort was secured and with what consequences. The issues of gender, race and national consciousness will be central to the discussion
Sonya O. Rose (BIH Visitng Fellow) is Emeritus Professor of History, Sociology and Women's Studies at the University of Michigan and Honorary Professor of History at the University of Warwick (UK). A scholar of nineteenth and twentieth-century British history, she was at the University of Michigan from 1993 until her retirement in 2006, and Honorary Professor of History at Warwick 2007-2012. She is the author of Limited Livelihoods: Gender and Class in Nineteenth-Century England (Berkeley: University of California Press, 1992); Which People's War: National Identity and Citizenship in Wartime Britain, 1939-45 (Oxford University Press, 2003), and What is Gender History? (Polity, 2010). She has also co-edited several volumes of essays, most recently with Catherine Hall, At Home with the Empire: Metropolitan Culture and the Imperial World (Cambridge University Press, 2006). Author of numerous essays, her work has focused on gender as a central factor in the development of industrial capitalism, in its complex relationship to citizenship, and on the home front in World War II and its aftermath. Currently she is collaborating on a handbook project, 'Gender, Military, and War in Modern History (1600-2000)'. Her primary focus concerning this project is on the 'The Age of the World Wars (1910s-1940s)'.

What I really liked about this site, as compared to other rv sales sites was the smaller number of vehicles for sale which vastly improved the visibility and exposure of our ad. I received friendly courteous help when I rang for assistance writing up the ad and thought the pricing was good value for money.
Very good service. Will definately recommend your site to all my friends.
Sold in less than a week! After advertising our caravan on your website we received our first call within hours and sold the van later in the week so we couldn't be happier. Very impressive!
I would highly recommend using this website if your are looking to sell your RV. We had over 10 phone calls in the first week and sold it within 2 weeks. Also great value for money at only $50 an ad.
I am very pleased with the service I received from the team at Ozrvsales.com.au. They were very helpful when it came to selling my motorhome as I'm not very computer literate. Justin talked me through adding my photos to the ad as I was having difficulties doing so myself. I sold "winnie" in just over a month and got very close to my asking price. I will recommend this website to all my friends. Thank you

Dakota Fanning was a presenter and a winner at the People's Choice Awards Wednesday night.
Fanning and co-star Queen Latifah picked up the favorite drama and independent movie awards for "Secret Life of Bees."
Fanning will next be seen in the sci-fi thriller "Push" expected in theaters next month.
What the El!?! Editorial:
I tuned in for a short time last night as I waited for "Damages" to premiere on FX (great show by the way).
Was anyone stunned by Dakota Fanning!?! She looked totally different.
Yes I know child stars grow up, it just seems like we haven't seen her in a while and now she's blossoming.
Good for her, don't we all like it when child stars can grow up gracefully in the industry?

{similar top | unknown cardi | jeans | boots | love necklace, c/o Onecklace}
I just have to start this post by saying how utterly happy I am that the super freezing, -17° weather seems to have passed (at least for now). Never in my life has 35 degrees felt so warm! Anyway, I received this awesome necklace in the mail a few days ago from Onecklace.com, and I, pardon the pun, love it! I was able to choose from a plethora of different fonts (I settled on this pretty, delicate script), as well as the finish (24K gold plated), and even the length and style of chain. I thought a lot about what word I wanted, and finally in the end chose simply, love. Because love is all you need. The processing time is impressive, considering that each necklace is custom made. I don't think I waited longer than 2 ½ weeks from the time I placed my order until it was in my hands, and that was with the holidays. Not too shabby!
On a completely unrelated note, I'm thinking it may be time for a slight hair color change. The ombre is looking a little overwhelming and a tad orange, and while it's totally 90s grunge perfect, it's just not working for me. The surprising part is that when I wear my hair wavy (which I shockingly have no photos of yet since getting the new color), it blends perfectly and looks gorgeous. But worn straight, something looks a little off. Perhaps a warm brown is in order. Now, to simply book a last-minute flight to go see my hairstylist in FL...you know, no biggie.
Partying with these peeps, yo.

The newest radio from Stryker Radios, the SR-447-HPC2 is now shipping! We're very impressed with what this radio manages to pack into a small case, continue reading to see why.
Small Size, Big Power
Designed specifically to fit in the overhead cabinets and drawers in most modern semis, the 447HPC2 is an excellent solution for any Kenworth Truck that uses the drawer system, the Freightliner Cascadia above-head cubby, Volvo cubby's, and any other truck that has a smaller CB cabinet. If a Cobra 29 will fit in your truck, so will this radio.
Powerful Performance
Don't let the small size fool you, Stryker has smartly designed this radio to have at least 55+ watts PeP output out of the box. With our alignment, we have seen a clean 75+ watts PeP on a Bird wattmeter. Yet even with this high power output, the amperage requirements are small. This means your stock power wires are enough to power this radio. No extra wiring needed!
Stryker quality, Stryker Sound, and Stryker features.
The 447-HPC2 is an amazing piece of radio equipment, mostly because of what it does right. It's a simple, easy to use radio, that packs a lot of power in a small chassis. Another of the 447HPC2's strong features are it's elegant multi-colored faceplate, large easy to read meter, and simple to use tactile control knobs. When beauty meets elegance and simplicity, you get a radio that you'll enjoy to use for years to come.

Whitehorse RCMP say there were only minor injuries after a head-on collision on the Alaska Highway Monday evening.
Const. Dean Hoogland says the crash happened on the Alaska Highway between Kopper King and the Fish Lake Road turnoff. Police were called around 5:15 p.m.
Hoogland says one car crossed the median and slammed into an oncoming car. Both vehicles were badly damaged.
Hoogland says both drivers were taken to the hospital. One had a wrist injury, the other only needed to be checked over.

I absolutely love this product! I purchased the starter kit originally and although I didn't get the hang of it at first, once I watched the instructional video that came with it, I was hooked. Even though it looks relatively easy to use (and it is!) there were several key pointers on the video that really made a difference. I now use this constantly! I love the borders on the templates as well as the variety of shapes available. I did find cutting out the square and the rectangular shapes a bit more difficult than the circle and ovals, but once I slowed down and didn't rush, it really wasn't a problem at all.
I tried this on a recommendation of a friend when I ran out of my regular adhesive and couldn't find any refills. I have to say I am not thrilled with this. I find that half of the time it doesn't put down a full strip of adhesive. Usually about half of it is left on the tape. I'm using it now because I don't have any alternative, but as soon as I can find my refill I am going back to my other brand.
I really like this glue pen...it came in so handy when I needed to add glue to small items, like my little diecut letters from my sizzix sidekick. I think it is easy to use and I like that I am able to control how much glue comes out.

This is a very pretty Weller cornucopia. The colors are caramel and green with a pinkish colored flower. It is 6" tall and is in very good condition. There are no chips or cracks. but it does show some crazing. The bottom is marked "Weller Since 1872". The inside is very clean...just a great vase. Please email me with any questions. (14)

Fantastic and massive human-headed, winged bulls and a curious wedge-shaped writing system are the best-known legacies of the place known as Mesopotamia. Although these objects give some sense of the grandeur and mystery of an ancient culture, the influence of the region and its people extends far beyond them. Long described as the "cradle of civilization," Mesopotamia is clearly one of the earliest civilizations in the world. Its many contributions include the development of written language, as well as several advances in science, economics, law, and religion. Mesopotamian astronomers, for example, devised a 12-month lunar calendar and divided the year into two seasons.

More "purity for profit" goofiness on #2A gun rights - this time in NC
More Lies About HB 69 from False Flag Gun Group "North Carolina Gun Rights"
Recently, NAGR's North Carolina Gun Rights ("NCGR", which is likely a deliberately misleading anagram of our own GRNC) and one of O'Neal's other entities, "firstinfreedomdaily," have obliquely referred to GRNC as a "fraudulent gun rights organization," attempted to bill brand House Bill 69 for constitutional carry as "compromise carry," and lied about veterans supposedly being denied their rights under the bill.
Meet the scammers at North Carolina Gun Rights Group
To give you the flavor of the two operatives involved, O'Neal, formerly a campaign manager for Greg Brannon's US Senate bid, and also formerly a Ron Paul campaign staffer (in conjunction with NAGR, whose principals consulted for Paul), has reportedly been disavowed by Brannon.
In addition to other dubious fundraising organizations on a variety of issues here in North Carolina, O'Neal was the subject of ethics complaints for his "Defense of Liberty PAC" ("DOLPAC") in Maine and has been caught doing predatory fundraising in Louisiana.
Then we have Mr. Fritsch. Considered by some as responsible for sinking the US Senate bid by pro-gun Mississippi state Sen. Chris McDaniel, for whom he served as communications director, Fritsch was reportedly a subject of a grand jury investigation into whether he or others paid someone to lie about vote buying by McDaniel's opponent. Indeed, Fritsch was so "popular" in Mississippi during the debate over constitutional carry there that his own bill sponsor threatened to call capitol police on him.

Westminster Commences Fiber Deployment| Written by Lisa Gonzalez | No Comments | Updated on Oct 17, 2014 The content that follows was originally published on the Institute for Local Self-Reliance website at https://ilsr.org/westminster-commences-fiber-deployment/
Westminster's open access fiber optic project is now officially in construction, after a groundbreaking ceremony on October 16th at a local deli in the Airport Business Park. Dr. Robert Wack, spearheading the initiative in Maryland, told the Chamber of Commerce:
"The Air Business Park is the ideal location for our groundbreaking since this is our first business location for fiber installation," says Dr. Robert Wack, President of the Common Council. "This initiative is a key factor in economic development, and we are eager to offer broadband in an effort to bring more new businesses in Westminster."
According to an article in the Carroll County Times, directional drilling is expected to move along at 500 feet per day to an eventual 60 miles.
The community originally planned several pilot projects, but enthusiasm grew quickly; even before the start of deployment, businesses expressed intense interest. After examining the need, the possibilities, and the risks, the Common Council approved a budget that included funding for a broader deployment. The project will eventually take advantage of the nearby Carroll County Public Network for a wider reach.
You can listen to Chris interview Dr. Wack on episode 100 of the Community Broadband Bits podcast.

Tualatin High School Theatre excited to present 'timely' production of 'The Crucible'
When American playwright Arthur Miller wrote his Tony Award-winning play "The Crucible" in the 1950s, he conjured the setting of the Salem witch trials of the 1690s to tell a story more contemporary to his time.
"When Arthur Miller wrote it, it was kind of an allusion to what was happening in the Cold War at the time, with, like, McCarthy trials and everything," said Tualatin High School senior Camryn Gray.
Gray is one of the lead actors in Tualatin High's production of "The Crucible," which opens Thursday at 7:30 p.m. To make the allegory more explicit, Tualatin High School Theatre is performing the show with '50s-style costuming and set design.
Drama teacher and director Jenn Hunter said the backdrop of that "Red Scare" era, in which U.S. Sen. Joseph McCarthy zealously led controversial investigations into alleged communist activities, has some resonance in today's world.
"We, once again, have found ourselves doing a play that is pretty timely with the current climate," Hunter said. "So we hope that the audience thinks about that on the drive home, and they figure out a way to participate in a thoughtful way in today's challenging times."
Senior Ian Edney, who plays opposite Gray in the show — the actors portray the married couple John and Elizabeth Proctor, respectively — agreed with Hunter's assessment.
"One thing that I'd want people to understand, kind of, is that Arthur Miller wrote this because he noticed similarities in the '50s as to the witch trials in the 1600s. And so he saw the witch trials, and he saw something bad going on there, and he noticed it in the '50s as well," Edney said. "And it's just important to realize that this kind of thing has happened before and it can happen again, and I think it's really important for people to realize that, because as long as people are aware of that, it's much less likely that it will ever happen again."
Miller wrote his dialogue to ape the flowery, old-fashioned language of the 17th century, and despite the 1954 setting of the Tualatin High show, the actors are using the original script. Miller did not skimp on length, either — the show comes in at about two hours and 15 minutes, including an intermission, Hunter said.
Not surprisingly, the lead actors — Edney, Gray and junior Megan Woodward, who plays the manipulative Abigail Williams — agreed that the show is one of the toughest they have ever acted in.
"It's, like, second to Shakespeare, I feel like — the language," Woodward said.
The rehearsal process for the show was affected by winter storms in January and February. Even still, it has come together for its five-night run this weekend.
"I could not be more impressed and proud of these students, because it's one of my favorite productions that I've directed, and I think it's one of the most difficult scripts for high-school actors to attack," Hunter said.
"The Crucible" shows at the Tualatin High School auditorium at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with matinees at 3:30 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday. Tickets are available at the door.
Tualatin High School is located at 22300 S.W. Boones Ferry Road.

Guidelines for images, photos and other graphics used on HSC websites.
Minimum standards
All images, photos and other graphics should be
- Professionally designed or produced
- Web layouts, templates and web graphics must be created by the professional graphic designers on the OIT web team or those in Public Affairs
- Graphics and design elements created elsewhere must be approved by Public Affairs
- Photos are professional in appearance and composition (preferably shot by a professional photographer)
- Consistent with the look and feel of HSC websites
- Sharp on a high resolution screen
- Useful & relevant - does it enhance the content?
- Optimized using Photoshop's 'save for web' or equivalent
- jpg compression between 70 & 90%
- Appropriately sized and cropped - e.g. is a 10000 x 10000px photo being used at 100 x 100?
- Used at the correct aspect ratio - no stretching or skewing
- Given a concise, descriptive alt tag
note: the terms photo, image, graphic can be used interchangeably, these guidelines apply to all
1. Legibility and credibility
Can you clearly see the content of the photo/s on both mobile and desktop?
e.g. Focus, size, quality, composition, exposure, crop etc.
- Focus: are the important elements of the photo in focus? Does all of the photo need to be in focus to communicate its message?
- Composition: has the composition been used effectively to draw attention to the relevant part of the photo and to create an aesthetically pleasing image? Would the photo be more effective if it was cropped in a different way?
- Quality: is the photo pixilated or easy to see? Is it properly exposed? Check on mobile and desktop.
- Size: is the physical size of the photo appropriate? Does the size make the subject of the photo clear enough?
Do the photos look credible?
e.g. Does it look professional? Does it suit the brand? Is it appropriate & relevant?
- Professionally shot: do the photos look like they have been taken by a professional? Is this appropriate given the context of what you are evaluating?
- Match the brand: are they the kind of photos you would expect to see from this brand?
- Appropriateness: Are the photos appropriate given the context within which they will be viewed?
- Believable: to what extent have the photos been manipulated? Does this affect the credibility of what they depict or the message they convey?
- Relevance: is the photo relevant to the content that it accompanies?
2. What messages do the photos communicate?
What do you want the photos to communicate?
e.g. 'Look how awesome and modern our classrooms are.'
What messages should the photos communicate to meet user needs?
e.g. 'How does the tuition compare to similar programs at other schools?'
What messages do the photos actually communicate to users?
e.g. 'That college looks like its stuck in the 90s!'
Do the photo/s support one of our key messages?
Supporting our key messaging isn't always applicable for all content but should be kept in mind for content that promotes our programs
- Responding to the state's needs
- Delivering real-world solutions through innovative research
- Reflecting the changing face of Texas
- Connecting with communities
3. Usefulness and effectiveness
Do the photos result in the desired emotional response?
e.g. Does it make me want that thing? Does that photo have a calming effect?
- Desire: does the photo represent something in an attractive way?
- Aspiration: does the photo communicate how a product may fit into someone's life or help them to live the life they aspire to?
- Aesthetics: is it pleasing to look at?
- Others' emotions: does the content of the photo result in a direct emotional response from the viewer (for example, are people in the photo smiling, frowning or angry)? Does the photo create a calming effect?
- Entertainment: is the photo funny? Is it intended to entertain the viewer?
Do the photos help the user with their task?
e.g. Does the photo serve a purpose or is it just a placeholder?
- Useful: does the photo serve a purpose or is it just a placeholder?
- Helpful: does the photo help users with their tasks? Does it prevent them getting lost? Does it answer their questions or help them to make the right choice?
- Instructional: does the photo show someone how to do something?
- Constructive: does the photo help to mitigate a user anxiety? Does it answer a typical question or concern?
- Prevent errors: does the photo help users to avoid making mistakes?
- Recognition over recall: does the photo aid recognition to save people having to remember things?
- Communicative: does the photo communicate its intended message effectively?
- Global suitability: will the photo mean the same in different countries or cultures? Might it offend people from other cultures?
- Educational: does the photo teach something or provoke thought about a subject in a different way?
- Complexity: does the photo convey something that would be difficult to put into words?
Will the photos influence the behavior of the user?
e.g. Does the photo have the desired effect it was planned to have?
- Gaze direction: should the people in the photos be looking towards other elements on the page or is it more appropriate for them to be looking back at the user? Service related websites benefit from eye contact with users, whereas product sites may benefit from gaze being diverted towards a specific call to action or button.
- Prompting an action: is the photo designed to prompt action such as apply to a program? Do the contents of the photo encourage this behavior? Does the photo encourage users to act or to make a decision?
- Changing opinions: will the photo help to change our point of view?
- Creating desire: does the photo make your college, department, program or services desirable?
- Perception: will the user attribute a particular quality to our brand having seen the image, such as quality or heritage?
- Message: does the photo communicate the message to people that is intended?

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: Master cylinder and rotors and pads all went at once??? on 2001 Subaru Legacy
I had the master cylinder replaced, the pedal was mushy and that was the diagnosis and the dealership did repairs for about $500. 6 months later(7,000 miles) it was making noise and I guessed it was brakes. I took it to a goodyear independent and they said it was a $1000 job and it needed pads, new rotors and pads and drums redone. When I questioned that $7000 miles earlier I was told it was ok, they called back and said they would give me a brake and do the job for $800. When I said I would come get the car, they kept it for hours and then everything was grinding and screeching when I left. I took it to the dealer and they said the drums were scared and everything. I had to pay them the $1000. Does any of this sound right?
| |
A little expensive for a brake job on a Subaru but the pad material has nothing to do with the hydralics. Did you get to see the used parts? Typical pads and rotors plus shoes and drum resurface should be around $500.00. Now that you've found us you know that dealers are where people go for manufacturer's warranty work.
SouNds aboUt right... well what I think happened is the independent shop probably went to take the drums off and the friction material may have detached from the brake shoe, Ive had that happen to me during an inspection, and when you didnt want the repair done there they had to put it together
Didn't find what you were looking for?

Christian Aid Week Event In Dorchester
9:44am 15th May 2013
A church committee is doing their bit to help eradicate world hunger in Dorchester today (Wednesday 15th May).
The group, who're supporting charity Christian Aid, is hosting a fundraising market in the United Church Hall to raise money that'll help build infrastructure in the poorest places so people can make their own food.
Researchers estimate 1 in 8 people go hungry everyday around the world.
Tony Boyden from the Dorchester church committee told us the figures are shocking; "It's shocking, but you can make a difference. It's interesting when we do door to door collections in Dorset, we do get a lot of goodwill. Some people say we're not Christian but that's fine, the issue is about hunger and poverty".
The market at United Church runs from9:45am - 1:45pm and will be opened by the Dorchester Mayor and Councillor Andy Canning.

text: I made this half a year ago after looking for a usb loader that supported WiiRd. I don' know if any currently do, otherwise this is basically useless as it is only a very simply modified version from the original v1.5 source. When configurable usb loader came out with WiiRd support i could never get it working, but I have not tried it lately. Tested extensively with Mario Kart Wii and works well. Also worked with Fire Emblem, not tested with any others. It only makes use of 1 hooking method that was available from old geckoos sources when I made it so I am sure it will not work with all games. Not sure if it works with the updated sdk. I also deleted the contents in the build directory when preparing to post this and I never got it to compile again. I don't know or really care anymore but hopefully this will be of some use to someone otherwise sorry for wasting your time. Self-explanatory, just pick a game then press + to start with debugging instead of a. Load up WiiRd. hbc app folder source

I'm a 20 year old college student going to USC and living in Downtown LA. I don't have much money, but I do like to go out to dinner quite a bit, and am willing to spend a reasonable amount on good food. I also love to cook and am a recent vegetarian, so I'm having a lot of fun with that. I think I have the "potential" to be quite a foodie, but how do I start on that path if I don't have much money?
Also, are there any chocolate or cheese tasting options that don't include alcohol, or do I just have to wait a year to do that?

San Diego. An abrupt departure from Arizona's formidable dust, this place is uncomfortably perfect. The average San Diegan spends an impressive amount of time outdoors, they just don't realize it because the inside and outside have blended into a mix of perfect that is hard to discern. Shopping, dining and drinking take place in a hybrid environment of sunshine, hallways, ocean breezes and wild birds.
Won't find many angry people here, it works like AT&T Rollover Minutes. With each day comes the same perfect weather, smooth running public transit, innovative fast food solutions...
Low stress allows for this excess of good times to carryover until needed during tax season or for a unexpected trip to Tulsa.
I traded my Nielsen business cards for a NEA conference badge and settled in for the combination of sightseeing, seafood and education based democracy.
New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson spoke about the importance of funding education. Teachers rallied against adopting performance based pay, after arguing over how to define it. Former Vermont Governor, Doctor, Democratic Party chairman, Presidential hopeful, and infamous screamer Howard Dean promoted his book about how to fix healthcare. Manny Ramirez returned after a 50 game suspension, apparently baseball was played, I found $2 huge draft beers by way of the black market Petco Field beer trade.
San Diego reminds me of the cover of Sim City 4, municipal perfection that borders on impossible to make when you play the game yourself. A little bit of this makes up for a whole lot of what comes next.

Chapters 18 and 19 were really intense. We learned about the failure which was Rosemary, and we end up knowing that she signed up to be released. Then in chapter 19 we learned what "release" is... it's when you are injected with some sort of liquid and then... die. I myself didn't feel anything (I don't know how... but I fell messed-up!) And I felt (in chapter 18) that the story that they gave Rosemary was great. It had what every super villain had (not saying that she's bad or anything...) a sad backstory and then something in the process that makes them go berserk and do a action that inflicts the area/community on them and in this scenario it was killing herself...so suicide. Well... it technically was suicide because she said that she wanted to inject herself in... and she did. I felt like they did a good job at making the story sad... well... at least somewhat sad.
Some Random Person: "Chill,"
Me: "OKAY!!!! ERG, I mean... okay."
The community is messed up, it's possessed! Jonas, you're community is possessed sorry >u<! The community decided... oh they look like each other... instead of putting them elsewhere or in different communities lets just kill them and put them in a carton. (Well, that's what I think because I got confused when the book mentioned a carton.)This is what I think about the community. I say that the way that they control the climate, clear the landscapes so that it will all be flat, make everyone equal, and even take away memories! Not to mention that they do everything for you! SO YES! This society is messed up and it deserves to come to it's end.

Covenant of Mayors highlighted as strategic 'key action' in Commissions' Energy Security paper !In its [communication on the European Energy Security Strategy->http://ec.europa.eu/energy/doc/20140528_energy_security_communication.pdf] dated May 28th, the European Commission makes special reference to the Covenant of Mayors and the crucial role of Sustainable Energy Action Plans in reducing EU's external energy dependency.
Under the chapter "Moderating Energy Demand", the Covenant is indeed pinpointed among five strategic key actions to be taken by Member States. More specifically, the document states that "Member States should speed up to achieve the 2020 energy efficiency target", "notably through accelerated implementation of the Sustainable Energy Action Plans submitted by municipalities participating to the Covenant of Mayors".
This reference to the Covenant of Mayors is a crucial political endorsement of the initiative's impact, which now includes close to 6, 000 signatory cities, among which over 3, 500 have already submitted their action plans. The ball is now in Member States' court to support their local authorities in reaping the full benefits of the Covenant of Mayors implementation.

West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is alerting residents about a scam involving senior citizens who receive phone calls from people claiming to be a family member in distress, according to a news release.
Officials said the scam typically begins with a frantic phone call from someone posing as a grandchild or someone in law enforcement who is calling on behalf of the grandchild. The caller then explains that the family member has been involved in some type of trouble while traveling outside the country. The caller then claims that the family member needs hundreds of thousands of dollars wired immediately to pay for medical expenses, to post bail, or for car repairs, according to the news release.
The scammers also sometimes call twice in a short period of time, first calling as the grandchild and then call as a family friend, law enforcement officer, or medical provider. According to the news release, the second caller sometimes even claims that the amount quoted in the first call was too low or asks for additional money.
"These scams prey on the love elderly West Virginians have for their family, and our willingness to do anything we can to help a loved one in distress," Morrisey said. "But people need to remember that wiring money is the same as sending cash, and consumers have very little protections if they wire money to an individual. Typically you cannot reverse the transaction once it is made, nor can you trace the money or recover it from a con artist."
Morrisey said that scammers goes as far as randomly dialing people until they reach a senior citizen and then let the senior "fill in the blanks" voluntarily saying the grandchild's name.
If you believe you have been scammed in this way, call the West Virginia Attorney General's Office Consumer Protection Division at 800-368-8808 and file a report. According to the news release, you should also contact the money transfer company immediately to report the fraud and file a complaint. You can reach the complaint department of MoneyGram at 1-800-666-3947 or Western Union at 1-800-448-1492.
Consumers also should file a complaint with their local police department and report the scam to the Federal Trade Commission at www.ftc.gov or by calling toll-free 1-877-FTC-HELP.

Ganglion blockers and neuromuscular junction blockers make up the antinicotinic drugs. The ganglion-blocking drugs have little clinical use and are discussed at the end of this chapter. Neuromuscular blockers are discussed in Chapter 27. This chapter emphasizes drugs that block muscarinic cholinoceptors. ++ Five subtypes of muscarinic receptors have been identified, primarily on the basis of data from ligand-binding and cDNA-cloning experiments (see Chapters 6 and 7). A standard terminology (M1 through M5) for these subtypes is now in common use, and evidence—based mostly on selective agonists and antagonists—indicates that functional differences exist between several of these subtypes. ++ The M1 receptor subtype is located on central nervous system (CNS) neurons, sympathetic postganglionic cell bodies, and many presynaptic sites. M2 receptors are located in the myocardium, smooth muscle organs, and some neuronal sites. M3 receptors are most common on effector cell membranes, especially glandular and smooth muscle cells. M4 and M5 receptors are less prominent and appear to play a greater role in the CNS than in the periphery. ++ Muscarinic antagonists are sometimes called parasympatholytic because they block the effects of parasympathetic autonomic discharge. However, they do not "lyse" parasympathetic nerves, and they have some effects that are not predictable from block of the parasympathetic nervous system. For these reasons, the term "antimuscarinic" is preferable. ++ Naturally occurring compounds with antimuscarinic effects have been known and used for millennia as medicines, poisons, and cosmetics. Atropine is the prototype of these drugs. Many similar plant alkaloids are known, and hundreds of synthetic antimuscarinic compounds have been prepared. ++ Chemistry & Pharmacokinetics ++ Source and Chemistry ++ Atropine and its naturally occurring congeners are tertiary amine alkaloid esters of tropic acid (Figure 8–1). Atropine (hyoscyamine) is found in the plant Atropa belladonna, or deadly nightshade, and in Datura stramonium, also known as jimson-weed (Jamestown weed), sacred Datura, or thorn apple. Scopolamine (hyoscine) occurs in Hyoscyamus niger, or henbane, as the l(−) stereoisomer. Naturally occurring atropine is l(−)-hyoscyamine, but the compound readily racemizes, so the commercial ...

Recently, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn used an amendatory veto to create an open primary system in his state. Currently, Illinois operates a closed primary system in which voters must first register with a particular political party. Once they have declared a political party, the poll worker will then provide them with a ballot listing the names of the candidates running to represent that party.
By preventing a Republican from voting for a Democrat, or an Independent for a Green Party candidate, the closed primary system ensures that the eventual party nominee is actually the person chosen by members of that party. The majority of states currently operate some form of the closed primary, including Iowa and Illinois.
Under Quinn's changes to Illinois law, voters would no longer be required to state which party they belong to, if any. Under the illusion that voters are scared away from closed primaries because they would have to declare a party, Quinn argued that "Illinois' not about professional politicians…We need to use a crowbar to open up the process and let people vote in a primary without disclosure of their party."
Presumably, Illinois would only become a partially open primary because voters would still be required to vote only for one party's slate of candidates up and down the ticket. This would prevent, for instance, voters from voting for Republican candidates for governor and Secretary of State and Democrats for Lt. Governor (who, in Illinois, is selected by voters rather than the gubernatorial candidate) and Attorney General.
California voters, however, refused to share such restraint when they recently passed Proposition 14, better known as the Top Two Candidate Open Primary Act. Under California's new primary regime, all voters, even Independents, will receive the exact same ballot listing every single candidate for office. Candidates will be designated with their party of choice, if they desire to list a party at all.
Unlike Illinois, voters in California will not be required to vote a straight party ticket but can instead vote for whichever party they desire for each office listed. The two candidates who receive the most votes will then face each other in a run-off, regardless of party affiliation. It is entirely plausible, therefore, that two Democrats could face each other in November for the governor's mansion, or two Republicans would end up on the general election ballot for the same Congressional seat.
The changes Illinois and California have made to their primary systems are just the latest in a disturbing trend towards abridging the ability of people to associate together for the purpose of political speech and choosing their candidate as their spokesman. The U.S. Supreme Court has long recognized the First Amendment rights of political parties to "associate with the persons whom they choose and to refrain from associating with persons whom they reject."
As a part of this right of political speech and association, political parties have the right to choose and promote the "standard bearer who best represents the party's ideologies and preferences." As Justice Scalia noted in a 2008 dissent, "The electorate's perception of a political party's beliefs is colored by its perception of those who support the party, and a party's defining act is the selection of a candidate and advocacy of that candidate's election by conferring upon him the party's endorsement."
But open primaries flagrantly deprive political parties of their constitutional right to ensure that only their members choose their standard bearer. Under open primary schemes, a candidate can pick which party he wants to be affiliated with (even if they don't want him because he is unrepresentative of their platform) and be made that party's spokesman by voters who are not members of that political party.
Open primaries will also all but ensure that minor political parties such as the Libertarian, Green, and Constitution Parties will not be represented on the general election ballot come November because, in most case, their candidates will be unable to finish among the top two candidates in the primaries. Without such access to the ballot box, the Federalist Party would never have given birth to the Whig Party, which in turn gave birth to the Republican Party.
The ability of like-minded individuals to join together to form a political party to select a standard bearer who, if elected, would work to implement their political ideology is a core right protected by the First Amendment. It is imperative that courts vigorously protect that right by striking down open primary laws such as those in Illinois and California.

Atheist Forced to Attend Religious Drug Treatment Program to Receive $2 Million in Court Settlement
Carrie DedrickReligious persecution, missions, Christianity around the world
- 2014 Oct 16
An atheist in California has been awarded almost $2 million after authorities forced him to undergo drug treatment in a religious program.
Barry Hazle Jr., 46, argued that the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation ordered him to attend a religious rehab center after one year spent in prison for drug charges. The treatment suggested turning one's fate to a "higher power" and encouraged prayer.
Hazle was eventually returned to prison for being "disruptive, though in a congenial way, to the staff as well as other students ... sort of passive-aggressive," in the program.
According to The Christian Post, Hazle will now receive the settlement for his "physical and emotional symptoms and injuries," as well as to cover court costs spanning six years the lawsuit states.
"I'm thrilled to finally have this case settled. It sends a clear message to people in a position of authority, like my parole agent, for example, that they not mandate religious programming for their parolees, and for anyone else, for that matter," Hazle said.

Bang! Waaah! So begins another fun-filled day in the Lawyer's household, this time with Liability sobbing her heart out in the bathroom because her father won't let her have a mobile phone.
"You are SEVEN YEARS OLD!" he shouts at her. "At your age I was lucky to be allowed to see my friends, let alone talk to them."
"That's because you're a boy," yells Liability from the bathroom.
"Boys don't need to talk, they just hit each other all the time."
"Way to go, Dad," says Deminimus, giving his father a friendly punch to the kidneys as he passes the stand-off in the corridor.
"Don't worry, Liability," shouts Subjudice over her father's shoulder.
"Just nick one off someone at school. They can't touch you for three years." She's full of these 'get out of jail' bits of wisdom. It looks scarily like she will become a lawyer, and one of the low-earning ones, to her father's disgust.
For a man trained in negotiation (he often boasts that if he wasn't running projects he'd be rescuing hostages) the Lawyer has a terrible way with women. He sometimes feels that his lasting memory of the fairer sex will be the sight of them running to the bathroom, slamming the door and sobbing noisily, with the sound echoing out so everyone can hear that he's made someone else cry.
One winter it was so bad in the office they had a sweepstake on who would get to five toilet breakdowns first; in the end it was Amelia, his new trainee, who just beat his secretary by a nose (quite appropriate, really, as she was later sacked for hoovering up cocaine with it; really, the office toilets were like a second home to her).
Anyway, the sound of blubbing in the loo puts the Lawyer into a strange state of paralysis. He can't go in to comfort them (no room, anyway; the sound of cubicle crying always brings a herd of sympathetic sisters stampeding to the water hole, where they gather round and break off bits of bog roll and mutter about what swine men can be). He can't even get in there to sack them, and although he tries manfully to stop the words "bang goes your promotion" from parading through his head, I know that's all he can think of. He once told me that equal opportunities in a solicitors' firm would mean removing the loos altogether, as they give women the chance to scupper their own careers without the men having to lift a finger.
I find him with his forehead resting wearily against the bathroom door. Liability is sniffing inside, although I dismiss the thought of a juvenile cocaine habit as unworthy of me. "Why do women do this to me?" he asks. "I mean, you're supposed to be the great communicators, and here you are locking men out."
I wonder whether to let him in on the big secret – that blubbing in the loo is just one stage in the negotiations – but realise such sophistication is beyond him. Men are so short-term; they don't realise a dispute can go on for weeks, which is amazing, considering how long the Lawyer's contracts take to argue out. Perhaps a good bit of blubbing in the loo would wrap it all up sooner.
"You can have one when you're sixteen," he shouts through the door, to be met with a fresh storm of weeping, as that's more than double Liability's life away. I just thank the Lord he chose commercial law, and not family: the firm would be washed away on the tears.

People who like awesome stuff were already aware that Fox is producing an animated series based on the best thing the human mind has ever, and likely will ever concieve: Axe Cop, a comic created by a five year-old, drawn by his 29 year-old older brother, starring a mustachioed titan of masculinity who dispenses hickory-handled justice upon those who do evil, like Pretzelhead, the Vampire Man-Baby Kid, and Mr. Doo-Doo.
Today, thanks to contractual obligations clearing themselves up, Fox was able to announce that yes, showrunner Nick Weidenfeld (Children's Hospital) made the only acceptable choice to voice Axe Cop; Ron Swanson himself, Nick Offerman.
But that's not the only bit of good news. Over on the Axe Blog, co-creator Ethan Nicolle broke down the rest of the cast, which includes some of alternative comedy's best (Patton Oswalt, Ken Marino, Peter Serafinowicz, Rob Heubel); alongside some serious heavy hitters, like Breaking Bad's Gus Fring and Mike Ehrmantraut (Giancarlo Esposito and Jonathan Banks) Mad Men's Pete Campbell (Vincent Kartheiser), and finally, Michael Fucking Madsen.
The best animated show television will ever behold premieres July 27th, 11pm, on Fox.

(You can also see more photographs on the facebook page)
If you are on twitter you can follow me at @_JPostlethwaite and use the hashtag #BadBookProject There are tweets/photos from the night already on twitter.
What is the Bad Book Project?
The Bad Book Project is a new free Brighton night run by me (Jane Postlethwaite) at the Marwood cafe and studios. It is a fusion of ideas from worldwide nights that I think are awesome.
It is mainly inspired by the American events called 'Moth' and 'Celebrity Autobiography'.
From researching for my night, I know there was also an event called, 'Bad Book Club' run by Robin Ince in London many years ago. I have heard of it, but never saw it or read the book about it. I have been in contact with Robin Ince on twitter to make him aware of my night and he replied telling me to go ahead with future nights. I know also know there is a great night in London called, 'Cringe' where people read out their childhood diaries or stories.
My main inspiration for the night was a video of Kristen Wiig reading from the Suzanne Somers Poem book, 'Touch me'. See video below. I ordered the poem book from America 5 years ago knowing it would one day be read at a night like this. Miles can be seen reading from it in the pics above.
As far as I know, there has never been another night in Brighton & Hove like the Bad Book Project. The night is made extra special and unique by the talented people who come along to read and the fantastic audience. I want the audience to be able to sit and fully relax in an intimate environment so they can have a really good time. No two nights will ever be the same.
Watch this space for the next event!

Reminder to Corporate Press: PHP is Not Linux
Somehow a PHP issue gets described as a "Linux worm" (usually in headlines, too) for many other writers to repeat without researching any further. If there is any issue associated with embedded devices (which cannot be patched easily, if at all), then don't blame Linux; embedded systems just happen to be an area reined by Linux and GNU. Windows would not have coped any better.

Should be quite a shock when/if Luke finds out...Obi Wan left a few details out, heh... hm, in a post-rebel-victory scenario, I'd imagine Luke, trying to re-establish the Jedi, woudl not approve of the Shadow Jedi very much- the new Jedi would likely be quite paranoid about anything that wasn't Light-
| SoCleverWhatever chapter 6 . 2/18/2007
I absolutely LOVE Anakin (not in that way, he's my fave charrie in SW) and the idea of triplets in very neat. Although, I personally like to think of Anakins daughter with his blond hair and blue eyes, like him... it's your fic, though, and I just have to say that this is PURE GOLD! I love it.

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to spend a week with CWC's Executive Director in 2011 at Stone House Retreat Center in NC. It was wonderful to hear her share her experiences with founding CWC but also sustaining the orgamnization and its programs. Her efforts to raise herself up after Hurricane Katrina and then to support other women in need are amazing! I understand the plight of sustaining a small nonprofit organization. It's a constant challenge. Hats off to Sharon Crenshaw and all the people who support her.
I have had the pleasure of working with CWC for more than five years, and as a nonprofit and advocact expert, I have never witnessed a small group have such a profoud impact in the community and the Gulf Coast region. CWC and its fearless leader, Sharon Hanshaw, are a testament to how passion coupled with tenacity can drive positive change. I am constantly amazed and inspired by their accomplishments and vision, and will forever remain a loyal supporter.
Mississippi gets least money per person from foundations than any U.S. state. Coastal Women for Change helps low income residents of the Gulf Coast, which despite its many casinos has much unemployment and poverty. Operating on a shoe string budget, CWC has an annual school supply giveaway in the summer, help distribute toys and books to poor families during xmas and an annual senior appreciation dinner. CWC also works with at-risk youth at the local juvenile jail.
I am inspired by Coastal Women for Change ("CWC"). This organization of dynamic women develops the leadership of women to be community leaders in Biloxi, Mississippi and work to overcome social inequities. CWC works for climate justice, gender and racial equality, governmental accountability, quality public education, and health care with the wisdom of knowing that these are not "issues," but are rights that have been denied. For this reason, CWC's work and accomplishments focus on defending and advancing these rights to ensure that women and women-led families live with dignity.
The Biloxi Branch NAACP office was the original location for Coastal Women for Change (CWC). I as President of the Branch served on the original board for CWC. CWC began after Hurricane Katrina as an organization designed to keep the Women in East Biloxi informed about the rebuilding process in Biloxi. Ms. Sharon Hanshaw was elected as Executive Director for the organization. She lost her house and business in Katrina. Ms. Hanshaw and CWC have done a tremendous job in the community. They have started several programs such as Computer Training for Senior Citizens, Thanksgiving Dinner for Seniors, a Community Garden. They are also very supportive to other organizations such as STEPS, Biloxi NAACP, Miss. Center for Justice, Save Our Schools Coalition, Second Liners Mardi Gras Club and many of the local Organizations. They have personally supported the Biloxi Branch NAACP through memberships, working with our youth branch, developing programs, supporting our Freedom Fund Dinner and Awards Program and Chairing our Mother of the Year Program which is one of our major fundraisers. This organization is still needed in our community and definitely keeps the Women in our community involved and informed about the issues affecting East Biloxi.

When is the last time you stopped to reflect on patience? Think about how much is centered on instant gratification these days.

Call for national rollout of development rebate scheme
The Government needs to impose the proposed local development charge rebate scheme nationally to ease the housing supply crisis and create conditions which will help both first and second-time buyers, according to a leading estate agency group.
Failure to recognise that supply problems are not just an issue in the capital or Cork will do little to alleviate the current impasse which has led to a nationwide accommodation shortage.
'Although the Taoiseach has confirmed that the Government will introduce a local development charge rebate scheme for large housing projects in Dublin and Cork, they are failing to recognise the fundamental supply issues that exist in urban areas nationwide,' said Rob McCormack, from REA McCormack Corish in Wexford.
'In concentrating on urban areas around the country, we have seen micro markets opening up, with specific towns in counties behaving completely differently, influenced by the availability of small numbers of starter homes.'
He said further evidence of the nationwide shortage is shown in the recently announced 80 per cent fall in available rental properties.
'The cause of this nationwide lack of suitable housing supply, especially in three-bedroomed semi detached homes, is that builders cannot yet sell at a profit,' said Mr McCormack, 'there is still a huge gap in the cost of building and bringing a house to the point of sale, and what it can achieve on the open market,' said Mr McCormack
