Critical Essays
Cynthia Ozick's central intention in The Shawl is to blur the line between life and death in order to imply the continuity of life. She conveys this impression by presenting motherhood as equally biological and spiritual. As Rosa goes from being a mother to being a survivor and a madwoman, she faces conflicts that call into doubt the integrity of her past choices. Knowing that Magda is always near her in spirit, Rosa remains deeply self-righteous about those choices.
Ozick's intention becomes clear only when the two stories are considered together. Taken alone, "The Shawl" leaves the reader with nothing except the unfillable emptiness of its aftermath. One watches as the body of Magda is replaced in Rosa's head by humming steel voices. After reading "Rosa," however, one learns that for Rosa motherhood has not ended with Magda's death; Magda has materialized as a phantasm, appearing to Rosa in many forms. Without the history of "The Shawl" as context, it takes the reader of "Rosa" much longer to discover that Magda exists only in Rosa's imagination. Examined together, the two stories emphasize the continuity of life through the spiritual bonds offered by motherhood.
By calling herself a "madwoman," Rosa links herself with a tradition in which angry or grieving women were silenced by being institutionalized as "mad." In the case of Rosa, that tradition's truthfulness is undercut by the sarcasm with...

The President ran on a balanced approach. Yet the approach he put forth post election is nothing but a tax increase.
He pretends cuts agreed to in 2011 are "new cuts" to the tune of 1 Trillion. He includes 800 Billion in savings from the winding down of Iraq (Ended through the Bush policy of withdrawal, btw), but this spending was never budgeted in future years, it is not a cut. The last cut he offered was a vague 400 Billion in future "increases" to Medicare with no actual policy and the cuts wouldn't come until the 8-10th years of his plans. In essence Obama offers zero cuts. Not really the "balanced" approach he ran on.
The Tax Policy Center has already stated capping tax deductions at 50k a year would hit the Rich 97% of the revenue (the other 3% are in the top 5%) and would raise as much as simply extending the rates. So he would still be getting the rich to pay "more of a fair share". I don't know why he is reticent.
Finally, Obama has asked for an increase of Stimulus spending by 50 billion next year as well as new "investments" in infrastructure. Essentially he is asking to spend the new revenue he is asking for in new tax revenue.
Obama has not proposed a deficit cutting proposal. He has offered an increased tax and increase spend plan. He lied to the American people and most notably liberals who are buying his constant lies.
44% of people who votes for Obama (according to a new poll linked to on politico) said they want the primary deficit cuts from more Spending cuts than taxes. Only 4% wanted deficit reduction by spending only. Obama is going against his own constituents. He is offering no cuts. He is offering only to raise taxes more and spend more.
He has increased the baseline budget by 20% since 2009. Stimulus and TARP were one time spending events, not permanent increases to the budget. Shove your Rex Nutting flawed analysis, it is a laughable analysis. The Obama outline continues to spend 24% of GDP for the next 4 years, and that is under rosy economic assumptions. Under not so rosy it will actually rise to 25% of GDP. Historic average is 20%, under Clinton it was 18.1%
Sorry liberals, you were lied to, and it's been fun watching you defend a person so blatantly lying to you.

North Canton Medical Foundation is committed to providing compassionate healthcare of the highest quality to every patient every day and improving the health and education of the community.
Our Audiology Department uses advanced technology to conduct diagnostic hearing evaluations for both adults and children, including infants. A diagnostic evaluation helps detect and measure the severity of hearing impairment and loss in children and adults. It is important to receive a hearing evaluation each year because hearing loss usually occurs gradually over time, making it personally harder to notice. Most patients should at least have their baseline diagnostic hearing evaluation by the age of 50, but with our levels of noise pollution, 40 is not too early!
We also offer ongoing consultations, hearing aid services with a wide variety of styles and models, and hearing protection services including earplugs, swim plugs, and specialty molds.
Denise Testa, Au.D. Doctor of Audiology

Diagnostic Hearing Evaluations A diagnostic evaluation helps detect and measure the severity of hearing impairment and loss in children and adults.
Balance or Dizziness Problems Using videonystagmography (VNG), a noninvasive test of the balance system, we can determine if a vestibular disease may be causing a balance or dizziness problem. VNG consists of a series of assessments designed to document your ability to follow visual objects with you and how well the eyes respond to information from the balance system. Infrared goggles are used to monitor and record your eye movements during testing.
Hearing Aid Services Only 20% of hearing losses can be treated medically, so the majority of patients can be treated effectively with today's hearing aids. These are available in a variety of styles and price ranges.
Hearing Protection Services Earplugs, swim plugs, and specialty molds are available.

Rep. Juan Vargas, D-Chula Vista, sits down in an interview with Imperial Valley Press Staff Writer Alejandro Davila to talk about the border crossing project, future funding for the Salton Sea and more.
Jobs, opportunities for growth and comprehensive immigration reform are what U.S. Rep. Juan Vargas listed as his priorities in an interview Friday during his first visit to the Imperial Valley since he was sworn in to his new position earlier this month.
Vargas, D-San Diego, said jobs and opportunities for people are priorities "that we have not only for the Valley, but for San Diego and the whole nation."
Vargas, the first Latino to represent the 51st Congressional District, also noted Imperial County's high unemployment does "require more help, especially with infrastructure."
He also listed renewable energy and diversification as the solutions to the chronic nature of the Valley's unemployment.
"So for example, the solar panels that we have now are ones that I think are very beneficial, but even more so is geothermal," Vargas said.
"Geothermal is a resource here that is rather unique to this region," he said noting that unlike wind turbines and solar panels, "geothermal runs 24 hours a day."
"One of the other things that we are hoping to do is bring the F-35s here, the Joint Strike Fighter. … We think that that would create probably 4, 000 jobs at least," he said.
Vargas also acknowledged that diversification has prompted some animosity in the Valley, "but I think it's important that you diversify the economy down here, that it's not just simply based in agriculture."
Another aspect in Vargas' agenda is a comprehensive immigration reform that addresses "everyone that is here undocumented."
He advocates that illegal immigrants get "earned citizenship; earned in a way that if they haven't paid their taxes they have to pay them." However, those with criminal records shouldn't be allowed to get citizenship, he said.
But this reform has to include everybody, not just dreamers, Vargas said while referring to the estimated 1.4 million immigrants who could meet the requirements of the so-called deferred action initiative. The deportation reprieve program gives work permits to certain immigrants.
"There are some Republicans who are coming around saying well that it should only be those dreamers, those kids that came here through not on their own volition, and that we should only deal with them," said Vargas. "I would say no; that tackles 10 percent of the problem."
Vargas, who met with the local leaders Friday to discuss border infrastructure funding, praised a recent state Assembly joint resolution urging the federal government to fund renovations for the San Ysidro and Calexico West port of entries.
But obtaining funding is going to be difficult, he said.
"Let's not pretend that it's not. However, all that being said, I'm going to make this argument and I think that you are going to see that it's going to come to fruition."
Vargas's argument is that costs in China are accelerating at a much higher pace than in Mexico and that these costs will eventually meet those of Mexico causing an increase in manufacturing along the border; "and once that happens I think you are going to see even larger lines of trucks trying to cross (the border)."
Vargas is optimistic that funding for the Calexico West Port of Entry will be achieved but acknowledged he doesn't know when that funding could materialize.
"I don't want to make it up. The reality is I just got there (Washington, D.C.)," he said, "and secondly, I am surprised at the level of dysfunction that I found in Washington."
As far as a public-private partnership, Vargas said that could be one solution to the lack of funding for the port of entry.
"If we get trapped at the border it's going to be very problematic. I think we'll miss out. (And) so we've got to figure out some way to develop this infrastructure and this might be the right way to do it."

This is one recipe I had to put immediately no matter what. I don't have a grill nor do I have a traditional tandoor. But I figured out how to make this coveted tandoor dish in my oven. It tasted so so yummmm. I had this slab of tofu lying around in my fridge and said to my self-"why not give it a try?" I made these in the afternoon and the smell of this dish woke my husband up and he told me,"what ever you are cooking in that oven; it is making me hungry". Hahhahaha.....the whole house smelt of wonderful tikka being cooked.
Grilling the tikkas are the best option next to tandoor, but some recipes suggest frying them in a pan. I tried that and it never gave me the tandoor essence. This oven recipe does justice to the tikkas.
Tandoor traditionally is an clay oven (cylindrical) meant for cooking and baking. Tandoor dishes were introduced to India by the Mughals (from the Persian and Afgan culture). As these regions (mostly were desserts) in olden days lacked enough wood that was needed to cook, they used these clay oven's cook their food.
Here is the recipe for a quick afternoon snack:-
5-6 squares of extra firm tofu (medium thickness).
one small sized onion diced
one small sized potato cut in rounds of medium thickness
fresh lime as desired
Tip:-If your tofu is not firm, you may bake it on a greased tray @350 F for 5-10 minutes. They normally ooze out the extra water and become firm than what they were before.
Marinating Batter:-
1/2 cup of curds
1 tbl spn of red chilli powder
1 tsp of jeera powder
1 tsp of garam masala
1 tsp of coriander powder
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tsp kasoori methi
1 tsp pf mint leaves paste
1 tbl spn of ginger-garlic paste
1 tbl spn of oil
salt to taste
pinch of saffron food color (optional)
With some kitchen tissues, press the tofu gently to take out as much water as you can.
Mix all of these in a bowl and add the tofu, potatoes and onions in the bowl and marinate them for at least an hour or two (over night is excellent).
Put them in your skewers . (I just used one skewer)
Preheat the oven to 400 F.
After an hour, use a baking tray/pan (small 8" square one) to support the ends of the skewers. This is done so that, the tikkas do not touch the tray (they tend to stick to the stray and will break when you try to pull them off) and secondly, the marinating liquid tends to drip and liquid will collect in the tray and will not dirty your oven.
Mine took 10-15 minutes to cook and some dark spots appeared on the surface. If you want more burnt look, keep it longer.
Keep a watch on the oven every 5 minutes so that they won't get burnt.
Take them out and let them cool.
Squeeze some lemon juice on them and relish.
Welcome my new family member, freebee. Avi found this lovely plant next to our apt's trash area with a note last night (poor thing was freezing in the cold). We immediately adopted her. Doesn't she look lovely?

Turn of Mind: Summary and book reviews of Turn of Mind by Alice LaPlante
Some of the recent comments posted about Turn of Mind. Join the discussion! You can see the full discussion here.
This was truly a book I couldn't put down, read in two sittings on the eve of the first anniversary of my mother's death from Alzheimer's complications. I had only brief glimpses of what my mother's reality was like as I tracked her decline from a distance. This book filled in the blanks for me - at alternating times tearful, joyful, and humorous. The writing is so skillfully done that the story flowed seamlessly from beginning to end. I'll remember this book not only for the writer's expertise but also for bringing me greater understanding of the last years of my mother's life (Judy G).

PROFILE of Theodore B. Taylor, 48, a nuclear physicist, who worries about the possibility of people fabricating an atomic bomb on their own with nuclear material stolen from private industry. In the course of a series of travels writer made with him to nuclear installations around the U.S., he showed how comparatively easy it would be. He earnestly wishes to demonstrate to the public that the problem is immediate as the nuclear power industry is about to enter an era of considerable growth. When he was in his 20's & early 30's he worked in the Theoretical Division at Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, where he was a conceptual designer of nuclear bombs. He grew up in Mexico City where he went to the American school. He had 3 particular interests: music, chemistry & billiards. In the fall of 1941 he went to Exeter for a year of additional secondary schooling. He decided he wanted to be a physicist. He went to Calif. Institute of Technology. He spent his 2nd & 3rd years there in the Navy's V-12 program, graduating in June, 1945, at 19. Quotes from a letter he wrote to his family on the atom bombing of Japan. He served in the Navy in 1945 & 1946. He went to the Univ. of Calif, at Berkeley where he planned to take a Ph.D., but failed his orals twice & then went to Los Alamos Scientific Lab. Tells at length about nuclear safety: interviews with experts & visits to plants, background on atomic energy.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.-- Jacksonville's new courthouse is facing a new deadline some local leaders say it has zero chance of meeting.
While the building has been operating for months, it still doesn't meet certain building codes. Right now, the temporary certificate of occupancy expires on Monday.
The hallways of the new courthouse are still pristine months after opening. What you don't see is work still being done behind closed doors. The city council president says many of those doors still aren't up to code. "It's my understanding the doors are not aligned properly," said Bill Bishop. "The amount of pressure it takes to open certain ones is a problem."
It's a problem that makes the $350 million building not handicapped accessible. That means the building still only has a temporary certificate of occupancy. That was eventually issued in June after the building failed multiple fire safety tests. It was extended in August. In an October email, Action News was told by the mayor's spokesman, "The department of public works anticipates it will be the only extension needed."
Bishop says there's no way all the work to make the building handicapped accessible will be done by Monday. "Turner hasn't agreed to do the things that need to be done. Their position is it's not their responsibility. They're still arguing," said Bishop.
He maintains Turner was paid to build a compliant building and he's worried now this $350 million money pit will get even bigger. "The issue is what is the cost to fix it. I don't have that number," said Bishop. "There is no more money to spend on this."
We did send requests to both the city and Turner for comment on when this would all be done. Both replied back saying they're working on getting that information.
The city hired a local construction law group to start laying the groundwork for a potential lawsuit against Turner Construction. They were to be paid 60-thousand dollars over a two to three month period. No word yet on the outcome of their investigation.

"Bottom line is I want to go somewhere where guys are willing to win. It's not all about the pay checks, somewhere where the franchise is going in the right direction" - Trey Burke, Leader
As Matt Harpring said. Do we even have a ****ing offense? I have said since 2 weeks into the season that we don't have an offense. If we can't run, or secondary break, we are screwed. We don't run any sets, we don't have an answer for teams that can pressure the ball and guard AL man to man. We don't even attempt to run a passing game and seem to be unable to run a PNR effectively. We pretty much rely on all of our half court scoring to come from a single post up player and passing it when he's doubled. If he doesn't get doubled because the other team has a guy that can defend him, we have no answer or options except throw up a bad 3 pt attempt.
Yay. Off season successful. Now time to see how good these young guys are and enjoy the ride.
Three players scored in double figures?!? That's it? And only one of them is on offense? C'mon this awful. I'm sick and tired of the Jazz playing like garbage. We can't win with Jefferson and Millsap so why play them both so much? Play Kanter and Favors along with Burks and we'll still lose games but we'll be better in the long run...this coaching is driving me up the wall

Hand vs. Machine Quilting Part 3: Quilting
Now that the top is finished I am ready to get to the quilting. As I mentioned before, quilting is the sewing through and together of 3 layers: the back, the batting, and the pieced top.
For both of these mini quilts I used a small piece of Quilter's Dream Request Weight 100% cotton batting, which has the thinnest loft.
Making a Quilt Sandwich
The first step is making a "quilt sandwich". The "quilt sandwich" process is the same for hand and machine quilting.
I cut a red piece of fabric for the back, a few inches larger than my top. I laid the backing fabric right side down and smoothed it flat. Usually the back is taped down before basting to create a wrinkle-free backing. In this case I didn't tape it because my quilt is so small.
I then unfolded the batting (which was cut to roughly the same size as the back) on top of the back, smoothing it flat from the center out. Batting is delicate so I was very gentle. (Joelle always says to treat batting like pie crust for the bakers among you.)
And finally I lay the top right side up on top of it all.
Thread Basting for Hand Quilting
Basting is used to hold the three layers together and steady while you're quilting and it gets taken out after the quilting is finished.
Because this project will be hand quilted I decided to thread baste it (you'll see safety pin basting in the machine section). I picked a green 100% cotton thread for the basting to contrast against the red of the quilt which made it easier to see and pull it out at the end.
I used a curved basting needle and, without picking up the quilt sandwich, sewed through all 3 layers with large running stitches from the middle in a spiral. I didn't tie a knot in my thread and left long tails so it would be easy to pull out later.
I put my sandwich in a quilting hoop to hold it steady but I let it stay pretty loose in the hoop (unlike in embroidery where the fabric is pulled taut.)
Quilter's Knot
The next step was to tie a quilters knot so I could start quilting. I cut 18 inches of hand quilting thread and threaded a size 10 between needle (these needles are very, very short which makes them very useful for hand quilting.)
I held the needle between my right thumb and index finger horizontally so the needle tip pointed left. I pinched the end of the thread into those same fingers so that the needle and the end of the thread were facing different directions and the thread made a loop.
With my left hand I then wrapped my thread around the needle twice.
Then I pinched my wrapped thread with my right fingers and pulled it along the length of the thread. At the end of the thread a knot magically appeared.
Hand Quilting
My next step was to hide my knot and begin quiting. I stuck my needle in-between the top and the backing (so it went into the batting but not so it poked out of the back) of my quilt and pulled it out at the point that I wanted to start my quilting stitch.
With a little tug the knot disappeared and I finally got to start quilting!
Note: if you see your thread end poking out after you've hid he knot just nip it off.
I decided to mostly quilt in the ditch. "Stitching in the ditch" means to quilt in your pieced seams. Since it's pretty impossible to get exactly in the seam ditch you usually quilt right next to it, on the lower side (the side without the seam allowance behind it). For the quilting lines where I wasn't doing this I used a Hera Marker to guide me.
Keep in mind that you quilt towards yourself.
I put my thimble on my right index finger (many people use their middle finger instead) and put my left index finger under the quilt, touching the backing fabric. I inserted my needle perpendicularly into the fabric and, using only my thimbled index finger I pushed it thru until it pricked (but not in a painful way) my under finger.
Next comes the tricky part. Using only my right index finger I rocked my needle backwards and pushed it forward while my right thumb pushed the front fabric down against my under finger. This motion allowed the needle to poke through and make a small stitch.
Then pulled my needle through and my first stitch was done. As I got more comfortable with making my stitches even and small I put more stitches on the needle at a time to go a little faster.
Once I was almost out of thread I tied my magic quilters knot again.
And hid the knot in the same way I did earlier and nipped the thread end so it disappeared.
Here is my front all quilted. Now I was ready to pull out my green basting thread.
The pulling out of the basting is pretty self explanatory and fun. I just grabbed one end and pulled.
Here is the front after the basting was pulled.
And here is a close up of the back
Pin Basting for Machine Quilting
To start I made a quilt sandwich as above.
Because this quilt will be machine quilted, I decided to baste using curved safety pins which is much quicker than thread basting. Without lifting it I stuck a curved safety pin in the middle of the quilt sandwich through the top, bating, and backing.
I added more safety pins in a spiral, placing them a fist's width apart until filled up the space.
Here it is completely basted.
Machine Quilting
Now I could start the quilting. I used a Janome Jem Sewing Machine and attatched it's walking foot. The walking foot pulls the top and back of the quilt along at the same rate. I put my quilt in the machine and manually turned the wheel (always turn the wheel towards yourself) until the needle went into the exact place I wanted to start. Since I was stitching in the ditch this meant that the needle was on the low side of my seam.
The walking foot sews pretty straight so I gently guided my fabric through the machine. I also made sure to keep a lot of slack in front of the foot so that nothing got too stretched out. As I came to the safety pins I took them out. I didn't bother to close them after I took them out, so they'd be ready for my next project.
For the sections where I wasn't stitching in the ditch I marked my top with a Hera Marker as shown below.
And here is my quilt top.
And here is the back
Final Thoughts
I finished both quilts in the same way. I used the outside edges of the top as a guide and cut off the extra batting and backing using a ruler and rotary cutter. Then I attatched the binding. Here they are totally done:
Once they were done I was struck by how different they were. The hand quilting looked so handmade and pretty, whereas the machine quilting looked more clean and modern. Either way, you're now equipped to do try it yourself!
As a post script: I ended up washing the handmade quilt to fluff it up for the pictures and it BLED! You might be able to see it in the photos above but here is a close up.
This is because I didn't pre wash my fabrics. It was pretty sad after spending so much time and energy on it. I cannot recommend pre washing enough. Even if you're in a hurry to start it will save you time and heartache in the end. Happy Quilting! --Molly

Dashboard Co-Op, a group of like-minded people committed to bringing art to a wider audience, among other things, presented BOOM City on Saturday night at the M. Rich Building in downtown. Artists from Atlanta, New York, and New Orleans came together to transform a building that sat aging and forgotten into a space teeming with art and life.
It wasn't difficult finding the building - the entire facade was lit with pink lights. After checking in and riding an ancient elevator, I walked down pink-lit stairs and entered a vast space, cordoned off here and there with walls not quite reaching the ceiling. A large performance space was ringed with sculpture, paintings, and a larger-than-life drawing. Through a looped hallway, I could enter any of the rooms on the right, left, or middle and experience a fabricated world - from installation to interaction to painting to sculpture to photography. A room of butterflies ringed with large framed photographs. A room in almost complete darkness, grass and mulch, stars above and brightly lit photographs. One-way glass booths so others could watch your audio experience. Interactive light installations repeated again and again. Brightly colored pipes weaving through it all. The night was filled with performance after performance.
BOOM City took place one night only, but you can still check out the space - the show will be up until March 2. The gallery is open on Mondays and Wednesdays, 6-9 p.m. by appointment only.

Inside the band room at Davis High School, you'll find organized chaos. Nearly three hundred kids and instruments can make quite the chaos, but when band leader Steven Hendrick takes control the chaos can be a thing of beauty. This beauty, the Davis High School Marching Band, will be marching in the Tournament of Roses Parade January first.
Chase Blackwell, the Drum Major said, "It's an opportunity of a lifetime. They call it the super bowl of parades."
Ashley Witherspoon is also a Drum Major, she said, "The fact that we get to go and perform in front of millions of people, it's exciting."
It is exciting and also an honor. An invitation to march in the parade is a huge accomplishment. Only sixteen marching bands from the entire country perform; some college bands, others professional, only half high school bands like Davis.
Blackwell said, "It's one of those things that you hope your band gets to go, but it doesn't happen to everyone."
The next step of the preparation comes from the marching. The Rose Parade's route is nearly six miles. That is nearly three times the size of any other parade the band marches in.
Witherspoon said, "We have been working up to our 5 mile parade route, so we have been marching until dark playing songs over and over again."
Band Director Steven Hendricks explained the need for practices, "It's literally just building stamina and get good use of their lips so they don't run out."
In addition to the work from the band, the community has helped to pay to get the kids to California.
Hendricks explained, "Our community through our city canvasing program, contributed 30 thousand dollars to get us to Pasadena."
Making this experience not just about the band, but the entire community and state of Utah.
The parade starts at 9 a.m. on the morning of January 1st. The band is number eleven in the route.
