This is a sad day. The grand jury's decision is yet another sign that all of America's sons' lives are not yet valued equally in the eyes of our courts. All of America's fathers, mothers and children should stay outraged and in motion for progress until we are finally what we say we are: One Nation, Under God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All. The path to these goals is focused advocacy and, where necessary, non-violent direct action. Those are the strategies that led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act and Civil Rights Acts 50 years ago and the outlawing of racial profiling in New York City just two years ago. Today we are all Michael Brown. Tomorrow we must ensure each of our lives is valued equally in the eyes of our nation's laws, law enforcement officers, and courts.
We are in a state of emergency, a time of challenge and controversy, but not because of the protestors. That state of emergency will continue until we stand, become uncomfortable, and demand a justice system that addresses the manifestation of pain in protest, the further chipping away of respect, and the real state of emergency our country faces.
This is consistent with the cultural logic that makes it okay in America to use brutal force when confronted by a Black villain. Thus, how can a grand jury indict Officer Darren Wilson when he was battling The Hulk?
We now all have the chance to examine the evidence -- released last night -- in the grand jury's decision not to indict white police officer Darren Wilson, who fired multiple bullets into Michael Brown. But the verdict on America's criminal justice system is already in for many Americans: guilty, for treating young black men differently than young white men.
I can't speak. My country has scarred me once again. How can I go to work in the morning on a train full of people who care not? At a workplace of people who missed the story because of football or reality television?
Perhaps the call to examine this one case would be understandable if justice came more often, but we've seen these unjust acts in communities of more color for far too long.
On March 22, 1991, a visibly shaken and angered President George H.W. Bush said he was "sickened and outraged" by what he saw on television. That was the beating of black motorist Rodney King by a swarm of LAPD cops.
The convenient spectacle of "violence in the streets" obscures the perpetuation of "structural violence" everywhere.
The gradual ground we have gained regarding our civil rights should not be confused with the literal stalemate we have had with the U.S. justice system regarding our human rights for more than 200 years.
These things happen all the time, right? They will happen forever, right? It's nice to think they won't. It's probably best to think life won't always be like this. Optimism is good. But I know I'm going to have to tell my future children about this country. What should I tell them?
The tragedy of Michael Brown's death, unarmed and shot by a member of the Ferguson police, is now followed by the tragic failure of the local courts to force the policeman to stand trial. This cannot stand without a measure of accountability. And on that score look no further than the prosecutor's office.
Deep down, whether I want to admit or not, I know the truth. The racism that James Baldwin knew and ultimately made him leave the country isn't really gone. It's just changed its form.
To understand this moment, we have to understand that Ferguson is yet another unraveled thread in the closely woven fabric of racism that has cloaked this country for 500 years.
The world of short blogs and 140 characters is symbolic of the all too prevalent overly simplified analyses, and sensational headlines that might generation "likes" and "retweets," but do not bring us to a better understanding of people, communities or our history.
The only thing left to do is to unite and use the power of our voices to make a difference. Instead of using violence, use your voice to stand up for injustice in the world. Form collaborative partnerships within the community that can truly make a difference.
I don't think the fate of Darren Wilson as a human being really means anything to the ruling class. At the end of the day, people like Bob McCulloch aren't protecting Wilson so much as the system that he stood for.
Saying "all lives matter" is nothing more than you centering and inserting yourself within a very emotional and personal situation without any empathy or respect. Saying "all lives matter" is unnecessary.
So many of us feel so powerless, unable to affect substantive change, unable to do anything other than hurt. Powerless does not mean there isn't work to be done. It is silence, inactivity, complacency and disconnect that are the enemies of justice, not rage.

Below are the available bulk discount rates for each individual item when you purchase a certain amount
Bonika Shears recommends the Scimech Flathone for sharpening their shears. Why? Because it is the best machine on the market for the sharpeners to give the stylist who use Bonika Shears the original edge. Bonika Shears perform better year after year when sharpened correctly on a Scimech. No other machine does a better job for the stylist.
Smaller is better. Sharpen in the tightest location in the busiest most crowded salon. Light enough to save your back.
Stronger is better. Enough power to put a mirror polish down. The torque to sharpen at slow speeds with consistent power. Other equipment bog down and slow as you apply pressure requiring you to sharpen at higher speeds and remove too much metal.
Swivel is better. Rotate the flathone to the position that suits you best. Change your mind tomorrow! Give your shoulder and elbow a rest. You can stand or sit with total comfort in any position. Other equipment offer only the option of standing or sitting on a tall stool in a hunched over position.
Simple is better. Compact sharpening equipment, easy to use. Pack your supplies, equipment and tools and work right in the beauty or pet grooming salons. Less attachments to your machine makes everything easier to carry. Store your supplies and tools together in a separate tool box. You full spectrum light Tensor light (included) is cooler than halogen lights. Since it is not attached to the machine it is easier to put it in the correct position and keep it out of your way. Water is simply sprayed on as needed instead of a messy drip system that often floods your area.
OUR CLAMP is better. The new IMPROVED ERGONOMIC, EASIER TO USE, QUICKER CONVEXING
The Scimech clamp can sharpen both left handed shears and right handed shears with almost no adjustment to your equipment. Rotate through the entire face of the blade for a correct convexing and precise repeatable angle position. There is no weight on your hand since the clamp and shear rest on the arm and you merely rotate the blade. Some sharpening equipment that say their clamp mirrors free-hand sharpening. Free-hand sharpening can cause damage to the small nerves in the hand. Our clamp and equipment has been inspected by a noted hand surgeon and hand physiologist to be more ergonomic for the wrist. Both right handed and left handed sharpeners can use the clamp with ease. Any length shear can be sharpened and you can sharpen with the shears together (as recommended on most bevel and low-end shears) or apart. Our convexing scissor jig holds the correct angle for sharpening making it easy to convex or bevel a pair of scissors. It allows you to sharpen every radius a shear may come in, which can vary between 500mm to 1500mm. Some Bonika Shears like the Fishbone have a very low radius and others like the Bonika Baby have a high radius. Sharpeners learn in training how to maintain every radius or curve on a shear. There is no optimum single radius that is best on every shear.
Scimech is better.
Perfect for in-salon sharpening of quality beautician shears as well as other shears. Only Scimech sharpeners can become full service Bonika Warranty centers.
The Scimech includes the following items:
International contacts, please email us with the voltage and electrical requirements for your country. There are additional charges for wiring the Scimech for overseas operation. Shipping is additional and will be added later. You may order here on line or we strongly suggest that you call us first before you order so we can send out the correct DVDs for you to watch BEFORE you receive your equipment and we can help you order any additional supplies that you will need that do not come with your equipment.
Two forms of financing available:
Posted by PaulAuriemma on 5th Aug 2014
I have been sharpening scissors for over 25 years using the Ookami Gold and the Twice as Sharp from Wolff Industries. I recently decided to become a full time sharpener and started to wonder if my equipment was the best thing for producing the best edge while also being easy to use. I can now say it's not. I purchased the Scimech and am not only impressed but truly amazed. It's easier to use and twice as fast. I sharpened 8 pairs of scissors at a salon yesterday in 2 hours. One pair was beveled so I decided to use the Ookami and all I can say is after the Scimech it's seems archaic and crude to say the least.

Edgeware Sharpening Service
Posted by Daniel Roa on 13th Aug 2013
I just wanted to tell about the service and support that I received from Bonika shears while I worked as a sharpener. I met Bonnie who is an exeptionally qualified person when it comes to shears and the shear sharpening business. Anytime that I needed help with shears I could always call on Bonnie or her staff who gave me the support that I needed. Their equipment and supplies were of great quality. I highly recommend to anyone who is seeking a part-time or even a full-time business to either sharpen shears, buy and sell shears to visit Bonika's website at bonika.com to see for yourself what great products they have to offer. Along with their exceptional supplies and products the customer service that I received made me feel like family. Go to Bonika's website today and see for yourself. Contact their office support and speak to their staff who can direct you on what will work best for your needs. Happy shears!

Rare Tiffany & Co. bicycle up for auction
By Emily Clark
June 1, 2008
Most noted for high-end jewelry, Tiffany & Co. was also a creator of unusual objects in the 19th century. One such item, a silver-mounted lady's bicycle, is set to go under the hammer at Bonhams fine art auction house in Manhattan on June 4.
Founded by Charles Lewis Tiffany and Teddy Young in New York City in 1837, Tiffany & Co. is a US maker of jewelry and silverware. In its early days the store sold a range of stationery items until 1853 when the emphasis shifted to jewelry. The company now has stores all over the world and has become a household name synonymous with 'Tiffany Blue' gift boxes.
Featuring carved ivory handle grips, the Tiffany bicycle is one of only a handful of these luxury two-wheelers produced in the late 1890s. One of which was made for actress Lillian Russell, confidante of the famed collector "Diamond" Jim Brady, one of Tiffany's favorite clients. The auctioneers are expecting an estimated selling range from US$50-70,000.Share

Strawberry Bliss Omelet
Instead of the usual ham and cheese, try dressing up eggs with strawberries and cream cheese. "I first tasted this dish while vacationing at the beach," recalls Selina Smith of Frostburg, Maryland. "We like it now as a change of pace for dinner."
3 Servings
Prep/Total Time: 15 min.
6 eggs
2 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 ounces cream cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1-1/2 cups sliced fresh strawberries,
Confectioners' sugar
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, water, salt and pepper. Heat butter
in a 10-in. nonstick skillet over medium heat; add egg mixture. As
the eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath.
When the eggs are almost set, sprinkle cream cheese, brown sugar and
1 cup strawberries over one side. Fold omelet in half. Cover and
cook for 1-2 minutes or until brown sugar begins to melt. Slide
omelet onto a plate; top with remaining strawberries and dust with
confectioners' sugar. Yield: 3 servings.

Director, Legal Research and Resource Development Centre, Prof. Ayodele Atsenuwa, in this interview with ADEMOLA ALAWIYE speaks on solemn issues in the country
What is your view on doing business in Nigeria?
I think that the business climate is definitely challenging. I think we are not aware of the indices of corruption which mark up the cost of production. We are not unaware of the problems of transportation which hinders the distribution of goods and services and again hike the cost. We are not unaware of the fact of poor infrastructure which has forced many of the manufacturing companies to close down. I do not know of any economy which can grow effectively in the absence of manufacturing. Otherwise, it is going to be consumer based which will be about buying and buying only. I'm also aware that the quality of education is on the decline. The quality of people to be employed to do the work around which business are founded is declining. All these make business environment to be harsh.
Is that why most businesses in Nigeria don't live beyond five years?
A business will definitely fail when there is lack of infrastructure even if you have a fair income. If you have a fair income but you have failed infrastructure such that you have to buy fuel to power your generator, sink borehole to provide uninterrupted water supply, provide security for yourself, then you have little money or no money left to purchase anything more than what you require for just survival. And of course if there's no market for what is produced, then there is going to be more challenges.
Vocational skills can be a game changer in the labour sector but interest in it has really declined. How can government revive this sector to address unemployment?
It will appear that technical education and the regulation of technical education have been left unregulated. I do not know any artisan that actually holds certification. People register business names without showing any certification that indicates that they are actually trained. You will not register a nursing home without showing that the person who is going to take charge is trained. We need to recreate awareness.
Some people are agitating for an increase of the 13 per cent derivation fund; do you think that is a right call?
I believe this is one of the issues that the national conference should address. It is not a figure to be fixed arbitrarily; it is to look at what is the expectation of the people of government, what amount of social goods should be delivered at the devolved level. It is when we have a realistic conception of this that we will be able to say if states control their resources, then we will be sure that what accrues to them is effectively used. You just don't fix things arbitrarily, you must look at what end will be served. Of course, there should be a lot of calculation to determine what should be for government at the centre.
What is your view on resource control?
I'm a federalist but I believe areas of Nigeria which produce the resources should definitely have control over the resources. I think that if the resources are controlled from that point, we can mediate, we can ensure that the Federal Government has access to some of the resources. But I think we have a military legacy that makes us think that it is only the Federal Government that is capable of delivering social good and so many things. Experience has shown that when the control of resources is over-centralised, there is a tendency to be too far removed from the people. Then it makes accountability even more difficult. It becomes difficult for people in the different parts of the country to hold the Federal Government to account than it is to hold the state governments.
The budget of N7bn earmarked for the conference has fallen under criticism; what's your take on that?
The budget of N7bn is not an insignificant amount of money. It is not so much as to whether it is just too much but as to whether it is going to be judiciously put to use. I have not seen the breakdown of the budget but I think the key concern is that if we are going to spend N7bn, we must hold the government to account and the process must work in such a way that the outcomes can yield result. We do not want this to be like the National Political Reform Committee of 2005 during President Olusegun Obasanjo's time, we do not want it to be like the committee chaired by Justice Uwais which engaged in a very consultative forum but a significant number of its recommendations were rejected. If this is the way we are going, then it's unacceptable.
Do you think the conference is coming at the right time?
I do not think the national conference is coming at the right time. However, I accept that we are far gone into the process of convening the conference. The reason why I do not think it is coming at the right time is because there are elections in the offing and I'm concerned that some of the issues that will be taken on at the confab are issues that Nigerians are passionate about, and I think it's important that the intentions around those issues are not transposed on to the electoral process in form of violence etc. Also I'm aware that there is a constitutional reform process that is ongoing and I believe that quite a number of issues to be addressed in the conference will likely touch on the issues that will be addressed in the constitution. I'm concerned that there is nothing in the modality stated that shows how the outcome of the conference is going to interface with the ongoing constitution reform being undertaken by the National Assembly.
Do you think the conference is a remedy to Nigeria's socio-economic problem?
I believe it's critically important that Nigerians talk because the coming together of Nigerians is something that has always been questioned. To the extent that to some people, this question challenges the legitimacy of the Nigerian state. It is not enough to say that there are no go areas because if people feel that something is questionable and they do not accept its legitimacy, silencing them does not legitimise it for them so we will continue to have dissatisfaction around the question. So I think it is important for some talking and hopefully in that talking, we will actually know how we can move forward. It is not all the solution because bad governance is actually what has led to the challenge of the Nigerian state. It is the failure to deliver good governance in large part that has caused all these problems, it is that sense of alienation. So having the conference is not the real solution. We will continue to have alienation if we do not work very hard at ensuring inclusion, and at ensuring that people get the beneficial outcomes of being members of the Nigerian state.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Tuesday, June 24, 2008
Missouri Women and Families Declare Victory
Independence Day Comes Early for Midwives as State Supreme Court Upholds Right to Practice
JEFFERSON CITY, MO (June 24, 2008) - Today's Missouri Supreme Court decision is a tremendous victory for Missouri families, who have been working for 25 years to gain legal access to professional midwives. The ruling increases access to maternity care in the state and allows women and families more birth options and affirms their ability to exercise their rights to choose how their babies are born.
In a 5 to 2 ruling, the Court upheld a law that legalizes Certified Professional Midwives (CPMs) who practice in the state. The Court determined that the physician groups that brought the suit to overturn the law lacked standing because their only interest in the case was economic.
"The Missouri Supreme Court made the right decision today, and after 25 years of legislative struggles to ensure more birth options for families, we are very excited," said Mary Ueland, Grassroots Coordinator for Friends of Missouri Midwives (FOMM). "Now, we can commence with creating a system in Missouri where CPMs are part of a team of caregivers, where mothers are truly informed and able to determine their own birth preferences, and where midwives can appropriately transport when the need arises, without fear of reprisals, and without intimidation and harassment of the parents."
The decision makes legal Certified Professional Midwives (CPMs) and removes the threat of prosecution to professional midwives who assist families who choose out-of-hospital birth. State and national birth and midwives advocates hailed the ruling as a triumphant and historic moment in Missouris history and evidence of a tipping point at hand on the national scale.
"Certified Professional Midwives must pass rigorous exams to obtain the credential, and participate in continuing education and peer review to keep current. They practice according to their Practice Guidelines within national standards for CPMs," said Debbie Smithey, president of the Missouri Midwives Association, "Missouri was one of only nine states to prohibit CPMs from practicing, and now the number drops to eight states remaining."
The Courts opinion summary is posted online. The ruling makes Missouri the 23rd U.S. state to allow professional midwives.
"Todays victory over Big Medicine is a real shot in the arm to the growing campaign to legalize midwives across the nation," said Susan Jenkins, legal counsel for the National Birth Policy Coalition and a consultant to the Missouri midwives. "This case confirms the message thats been reverberating loud and clear in both the mainstream media and the blogosphere ever since the American Medical Association launched its attacks against midwives and home birth in Mid-June 2008 - physicians do not have the right to speak for patients when it comes to deciding who delivers their babies. Missouri families now have legal access to CPMs, who provide high-quality, cost-effective care and fill significant gaps in the state health care system."
Across the nation, many have stepped up to help in a case that has been likened to a David-and-Goliath battle, with midwives supporters hosting bake sales and garage sales to stand up to the enormously well-financed Missouri State Medical Association, an affiliate organization of the AMA. In February, an amicus curiae (friend of the court) brief was submitted by:
The amicus brief submitted by the coalition urged the Court to reverse the injunction against the midwives law and made the case that increasing access to trained and qualified CPMs and out-of-hospital birth is beneficial to Missouri citizens.
The new Missouri Midwifery law was supposed to take effect Aug. 28, 2007, but the Missouri State Medical Association (MSMA) organized a well-financed challenge to the new law and was granted a temporary restraining order on July 3. Then on Aug. 8, Circuit Court Judge Patricia Joyce, who serves on the Board of Directors for St. Marys Health Center in Jefferson City, disallowed the Certified Professional Midwives provision contained within HB818 regarding portability and accessibility of health insurance.
Judge Joyce ruled the provision was unconstitutional and unrelated to health insurance, despite hearing from Assistant Attorney General John K. McManus and Midwifery Coalition attorney Jim Deutsch that decriminalizing midwifery does indeed relate to health insurance as they recalled that the Missouri Supreme Court has already ruled health insurance is interdependent on health services, and the two subjects are related.
During the Circuit Court appeal to Judge Joyce on Aug. 2, Deutsch cited nine other states where Medicaid covers home births attended by Certified Professional Midwives and many others where CPMs receive private insurance reimbursement. Both McManus and Deutsch argued that families obviously cannot get health insurance reimbursement for their midwives if their providers are considered felons by the state. They agreed that legalizing Certified Professional Midwives is a first step to home birth families being able to have their maternity care providers covered by insurance. They also cited the lower cost of midwifery care, which in turn could encourage insurance companies to lower their rates for healthy women.
Midwives Supporters Seek Donations to Help Pay Legal Fees
To help pay for the legal fees incurred over the past year, families across Missouri have undertaken fundraising efforts, including bake sales, garage sales, and other community fundraising events. "Through our own efforts, we have steadily chipped away at our legal bills, but we still need help," said Laurel Smith, President of Friends of Missouri Midwives. Smith added that donations to help pay the legal fees of the coalition of midwives and their supporters can be made at www.FreeTheMidwives.org.
Missouri is a priority of The Big Push for Midwives Campaign, a nationally coordinated campaign to advocate for regulation and licensure of Certified Professional Midwives (CPMs) in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, and to push back against the attempts of the American Medical Association Scope of Practice Partnership to deny American families access to legal midwifery care. The Big Push for Midwives Campaign is the first initiative of the National Birth Policy Coalition (NBPC). Through our work, we are playing a critical role in the building of a new model of U.S. maternity care delivery at the local and regional levels. At the heart of this new model is the Midwives Model of Care, which is based on the fact that pregnancy and birth are normal life processes.
Media inquiries about the Missouri Supreme Court case should be directed to Mary Ueland at (417) 543-4258, email@example.com. Media inquiries about The Big Push for Midwives Campaign should be directed to Steff Hedenkamp at (816) 506-4630, firstname.lastname@example.com.
NOTE: The Missouri Supreme Courts ruling today legalizes Certified Professional Midwives and how they practice within their scope of practice for pregnant women, and has nothing to do with abortion, c-sections, or epidurals.
The Midwifery Amendment
376.1753. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, any person who holds current ministerial or tocological * certification by an organization accredited by the National Organization for Competency Assurance (NOCA) may provide services as defined in 42 U.S.C. 1396 r-6(b)(4)(E)(ii)(I). **
* Tocology is the science of midwifery or obstetrics. The National Organization for Competency Assurance (NOCA) certifies more than 160 credentials, most of which are in the medical field. The Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) and Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM) are the only tocological certifications under NOCA. CNMs are already allowed to practice under their own statute. There are no ministers certified by NOCA. Therefore, the CPM is the only credential affected by this language.
** This portion of the US Code says "services related to pregnancy (including prenatal, delivery, and post partum services)."

Interview with Murder Slim Press
Murder Slim: Let's start off with NAM. We know you were stationed in Vietnam during the war, but why do you think it took over 30 years for you to respond to the war as you have by way of this story collection?
MS: How much of the collection is really true? And how many of the other characters' voices you use are based on personal experience?
MS: What are your main memories of the war? Are you still haunted by them?
MS: Did you ever make your anti-war feeling known at the time? And did you try to dodge the draft?
Anti-war feeling was not uncommon among the soldiers in Nam, especially in the latter years of the war. And, yes, I certainly did express my anti-war feeling while in Nam, at least to an extent I could get away with. The incident in NAM-I don't off-hand recall in which story-where the narrator recounts throwing his Bronze Star medal into the waste basket in front of the colonel in charge of his unit . . . this was me. I shit-canned the thing immediately after they gave it to me. I was so bitter about the war that I wanted no part of any such award for my participation in it. After I left Vietnam I still had some time to do in the Army and so was stationed at Oakland Army Base, in California, for several months, where I was, miserably, processing guys over to the place, Vietnam, from where I'd just returned. I did while at Oakland Army Base attend a few antiwar rallies in San Francisco, and I distributed, secretly, an anti-war paper on base. After I was released from the Army, however, I needed to put Nam behind me and recapture my own life. It was at that point that I began, unconsciously, the process of stuffing the very troubling Nam experience down so deep that it became far distant from me for decades.
MS: You've been mostly known before as an artist. What have you been up to artistically over the years?
MS: It isn't too hard to find details about your artwork, and you were a master of getting information about your gallery in the press. What are your views on promotion? Is there a line where it becomes indecent? And where is that line?
MS: Your visual art is largely abstract, while your writing is largely realistic. What ties do you find between both styles? What marks them as distinctively McGowan?
But, for good or ill, I've never been able to keep driving down the same road forever and ever. I feel it's a matter of personal growth. With any given body of my work, whether literary or visual, once I've got what I want, I'm inclined to take off from where I've been and move on beyond that place into further exploration, toward that ever-illusive whatever-it-is that an artist seeks to find.
I should note, however, that I am frequently startled, especially in the visual work, to realize that what I'm doing in the present relates very clearly to what I'd done previously, perhaps even years and years earlier, so that it's clear there are certain core features of my expressive impulses that are settled in and that keep coming forward repeatedly over the years. In other words, some aspects of a single direction do make themselves apparent time after time. An utterly fascinating phenomenon. And wholly mysterious. No one understands what makes this happen.
As for what might seem distinctive about my work . . . in my writing, I would think my prose style-precise, unromantic, no poetry-is generally pretty much my own, whether I'm writing realistically or otherwise. And, by the way, not all of my fiction falls into the realism camp. I have for example two short novels, as yet unpublished, Bad Night and Entry, that are decidedly unconventional and that in my opinion represent a high level of maturation in my work as a fiction writer.
In answer to your question concerning ties between my visual work and my writing, I can only say that there might actually not be any, no significant ones anyway. Hell maybe I'm just two wholly different people. This could, in a sense, be so. Who knows. I must say that I'm very much aware, painfully so sometimes, of there being in me an ongoing battle for supremacy, as it were, between the writing and the art-making, as though the two me's were battling it out down there inside. I don't know, I just do what's in me to do. Someone else, should they for some reason be interested in doing so, can try to figure this out, not me.
MS: Another of your story collections, Stories from the Art World, is forthcoming very soon from the new American indie publisher, Thumbnail Press. Again, how much of this fiction is based on personal experience? And how positive do you find the art world to be? Is it as phony as most people suspect?
Most of the first half of my adult life was spent in the art world as a teacher, a producing artist, a gallery director, a newspaper art critic, etc., so all of my art-world fiction is derived of a very broad experience in that world. Is the art world phony? In a word, no, no more than is so of any other realm of competitive professional endeavor. I mean, if you want petty politics and phony one-upmanship, just spend some time in a university academic department, no matter what the subject concentration. Every profession has it's sea of bullshit. As for the art world, people who've had no real contact with that world, except maybe for the occasional glimpse in a museum or gallery at artwork they find incomprehensible, can conclude that artists and art museums and galleries are engaging in some species of fraud, snootily seeking to foist off on an innocent public a body of offensively meaningless crap. And, absolutely yes, there is a lot of incompetent, inconsequential crap being made and shown at any given time or place in the art world. But, again, this would be so in most other professions, as well, in certainly any profession in which the work being done is subjective in nature. But, in my experience, artists and others in the art world are entirely serious about what they're doing. True, the contemporary art world can indeed seem, or even be, insular, so that the lay person can understandably feel mystified by it, and perhaps miffed because of that. But, however arcane the art world can be or seem to be, it's by and large simply untrue that artists and their supporters are trying to pull the wool over the public's eyes and laughing about it behind closed doors. The same accusations could be leveled at contemporary poetry. Sometimes you do have to be in a world (art world, poetry world) in order to understand what's going on there.
MS: We've talked a lot about your wife, Peggy McGowan, before. What is she known for, how did you meet, and how is she?
Professionally, as you're aware, Peg is known as the first woman ever to win a national Emmy as a camera person. She worked for some years in Hollywood at NBC, running camera on numerous major television shows and specials. She has many, many fascinating stories about her encounters with the likes of Johnny Carson, Bob Hope, Steve Martin, Robin Williams, Bette Davis, numerous legendary musicians, many others . . . Her determination to win that Emmy is the same determination that has helped her recover so energetically from cancer treatment. An utterly remarkable woman, Peg is.
Peg and I were introduced by a mutual friend about twenty years ago. We've had a deeply satisfying marriage. We're each other's best friend. She says I can be the boss in our home as long as I do everything she tells me to do, so that's what I do, because I like being the boss around here; it makes me feel macho.
MS: This is the ol' standard interview question, but which artists and writers have inspired your work? Do you have one piece of work that you really recommend to readers?
But, in perfect honesty, I cannot cite any particular artist or period of art, except probably for American Abstract Expressionism in general, that has influenced my own visual work.
And I would say roughly the same concerning literature: no major influences. For the most part, I've simply found my own way as a writer. Possibly because, though I'd written art criticism and other nonfiction for some years prior, I didn't begin writing fiction until I was more than fifty years old. I was by then well past youth, that early portion of life when people are influenced by others as they struggle to find creative direction and maturity. At a certain point in one's life, if you're lucky, you feel you've attained a reasonable breadth of experience concerning what others have done so that you can settle fairly securely into your own sensibilities and impulses. I could mention writers whose work I adore and/or respect-Nicholson Baker, J.M. Coetzee (the later work), Lydia Davis, Max Frisch, David Markson, James Salter, W.G. Sebald, among others-but I don't feel I've been much influenced by any of these.
MS: Your short personal essay "Mystery" deals beautifully with your religious disbelief. And you were a philosophy major in undergraduate school. How does all of this inform your thinking? And how does it make you feel about death?
MS: What do you want to achieve before the ol' void?
MS: Are you happy with the response to NAM so far?
MS: What pisses you off most about people?
MS: What gives you a buzz?

Program lets doctors dial up specialists
Phone-in service offers quick advice about diagnosis, medications and treatment
Pamela Fayerman, Vancouver SunPublished: Wednesday, September 18, 2013
Instead of waiting weeks or even months for a referral to a specialist, patients and their family doctors in B.C. can get speedy phone advice from medical experts through a Vancouver-based program meant to improve care, save money and cut hospital visits.
The on-the-spot advice about diagnosis, medications and treatment plans is delivered when family doctors and nurse practitioners call a designated Telus phone number. A message is sent to an appropriate specialist who returns the call as quickly as possible. Involvement in RACE, or Rapid Access to Consultative Expertise program, is optional, so not all family doctors use the service. Those who don't must try to catch specialists on the fly, with no guarantee of a timely callback. Playing telephone tag is a common problem.
Evaluations of the RACE program, which began three years ago, have shown that 90 per cent of calls are answered within 15 minutes, often when patients are still sitting in the family doctor's waiting room. The analysis showed that 60 per cent of patients who would otherwise have been referred to a specialist were treated without a visit to a specialist. Also, a third of patients were spared from having to go to hospital.
RACE was started by doctors at St. Paul's Hospital/Providence Health Care in a small pilot program. It has expanded to cover the entire Vancouver Coastal and Fraser health regions, with collaboration of the B.C. Medical Association and the B.C. Health Ministry.
Dr. Scott Lear, Pfizer/Heart and Stroke Foundation chair in cardiovascular prevention research at St. Paul's, was involved in the development of the service when it began modestly as a way to improve access to cardiologists.
Lear said in an interview that the system became possible with the creation of fee codes entitling doctors to bill for phone advice.
Specialists get about $60 for giving phone advice while family doctors who make the calls requesting advice get $40. While the total cost for phone interaction between doctors is $100, cost savings are achieved because in-office patient visits to specialists cost about $200 a visit.
Figures for what an emergency department visit costs are harder to ascertain because there are so many variables and overhead costs to take into account.
"It's really a customer service type of program," said Lear. "The goal is for a 100-per-cent response time within two hours but what's most desirable is to have calls returned in real time, when the patient is still in the office."
Margot Wilson, who helped create the program and remains involved as director of the Chronic Disease Management Strategy at Providence, said a website was launched earlier
this summer (www.RACEconnect.ca) along with other marketing to ensure all doctors are aware of the program. She's unaware how many doctors are using the service but since June 2010, 7,000 calls have been made by family doctors and 120 medical specialists have responded.
She concedes some doctors won't participate in the service if they already have established, preferred referral networks.

AfterEllen.com's Top 50 Favorite Female TV Characters
24. Dana Fairbanks (Erin Daniels), The L Word
Before she was ruthlessly murdered by Ilene Chaiken, Dana Fairbanks was one of the most engaging, relatable lesbian characters in the history of TV. Over the course of three seasons, she fell out of the closet, fell in love with her best friend, and proved that sometimes a cat really does make a better companion than a girlfriend. Poor Mr. Piddles. Poor Dana. Poor us. (We're still not over it.)
23. Alice Pieszecki (Leisha Hailey), The L Word
Even when TLW tasted like poopy shit, we couldn't get enough of Alice Pieszecki. Some of us wanted to be her bestie. Some of us wanted to be her wife. Some of us just wanted to eat gay brownies and giggle at her classic one-liners. Plus she prepared us for a life of network TV viewing with this little gem: "Most girls are straight until they're not, and then, sometimes they're gay until they're not."
22. Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), Parks and Recreation
Even though she was born in Eagleton (home of Lord Voldemort), we'll never stop loving Leslie Knope. We'd eat waffles and whipped cream with her, we'd carry a three-legged dog across an ice skating rink for her, and we'd vote for her in any election. In fact, we wish Knope 2012 were a real campaign. A President of the United States campaign.

Bay Leaf, California
Used for shorter cooking times, the California Bay hints at camphor and eucalyptus. The large dried leaves of the bay laurel tree are one of the best herbs for soups and broths, rice, and sauces, giving a mild, delicious savory taste. Bay leaves are among the oldest known cooking herbs.
ORIGIN: California
Bay Leaf, Turkish
This Mediterranean bay leaf is excellent for longer cooking times as it has a potent aroma.
The large dried leaves of the bay laurel tree are one of the best herbs for soups and broths, rice, and sauces, giving a mild, delicious savory taste. Bay leaves are among the oldest known cooking herbs.
ORIGIN: Turkey
Beet Powder
A powdered version of the familiar and often maligned vegetable. Try it in soups and stews or in a vinaigrette to add great color and mild sweetness. With mild thickening properties, it can used to add body to a sauces.
This fiery recipe from Ethiopia and Eritrea is a complex blend of spices and is used in stews (called wats) of meat, vegetable or lentils, and also to coat foods to be fried or grilled. Key spices used are chillies, ginger and cloves, Cumin, allspice, cinnamon, fenugreek and ajowan…among others
Bird's Eye Chile
This organic bird's eye chile is small but packs quite a lot of heat. At one time it was even listed as the hottest chili in the Guinness Book of World Records but other hotter varieties of chili have since been identified. It's what gives local dishes such as bicol express their fiery zing. It is also used to flavor vinegar.
Black Cumin
Black cumin grows wild in Iran and Kashmir. Called royal cumin, or kala jeera in India, the small, dark brown, curved seeds are highly aromatic, with a resinous, astringent flavor that's sweeter and more complex than common cumin. It's preferred for northern Indian meat kormas and shows up in savory dishes of North Africa and the Middle East.
ORIGIN: India
MEDICINAL: Helps build your immune system
Black Lime
Dried limes and lemons are very traditional, special ingredients from the Middle East. The highly aromatic, tart and slightly fermented flavor notes in black limes complement chicken and fish particularly well. Add one or two whole to soups, stews or in the cavity of poultry before cooking, piercing them lightly with a fork to allow the flavors to infuse.
ORIGIN: Turkey
Black Pepper, Smoked
Smoked black pepper is boldly aromatic with a mild smoke taste that goes great anywhere you want a bit of spicy smokiness: BBQ, omelets, Latino food, spiced nuts, etc!
Black Truffle Salt
Truffles are a genuine treasure imported from Italy. Fusion Black Truffle Salt utilizes the unique power of sea salt to intensify the aroma and complex flavors of this exquisite mushroom. Truffle salt is ideal with egg dishes, pasta, mashed potatoes, red meat… even on buttered popcorn.
ORIGIN: France
Blackened Jerk Rub
A dry seasoning blend which is used primarily in the preparation of grilled meat, with flavors of chiles, thyme, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves, garlic and onions. Jerk seasoning can be either rubbed directly onto meat, especially chicken or pork, or blended with a liquid to create a marinade.
Bolivian Rose Salt
Hand harvested from the Andes Mountain range in Bolivia. Ancient sea salt deposits were covered with volcanic lava creating this high mineral salt and protecting it from pollution. The light rose & orange color of Bolivian Rose makes it gorgeous when presented in a clear salt shaker or mill.
ORIGIN: Bolivia
Cajun Creole Bayou Blend
Cajun Creole can be used in many ways but one of our favorites is making crawfish. Corn and tomatoes are always a needed for a great crawfish dish. Some call this Cajun smothered corn. You can also use canned whole kernel combined with cream style corn. Another cool recipe is to add an ounce of CCB to a pound of ground beef and fry some Cajun sliders…delicious.
California Chile
The California is a beautiful russet red, translucent, thin-walled dried chile, measuring between 10-15 cm in length and between 2.5-3.25 cm in width. Most chiles grow hanging downwards (pendant).
Caraway Seed
Caraway is an essential taste in sauerbraten, sauerkraut and rye bread. It figures prominently in the cuisines of Germany, Austria, Eastern Europe and Scandinavia. It seems to have a special affinity for apples, pork and sausages. It is also popular in Middle Eastern and North African cooking.
ORIGIN: Holland
Cardamom, Black
Black cardamom has a smokier, more savory taste than the green pods and adds an exotic, authentic taste to Indian lentil soups, rice dishes, pickles and stews. Try it in BBQ sauces for an exotic smoky taste.
ORIGIN: India
Cardamom, Green
Cardamom's bright and strong flavors have a camphor-like quality and citrus intensity. An ancient and highly-prized spice, its high price makes it a 'festive' spice. It goes well in sweets and pastries, but is often used in savory meals too. The pods can be shelled to collect and grind the seeds or used whole in chai tea or Turkish coffee.
ORIGIN: India
Diced carrot pieces can be added to soup mixes and re-hydrate to a sweet and intense flavor. These also make an interesting base for homemade hot sauces as they combine very well with chiles.
Cascabel Chile
Cascabel means "rattle" in Spanish as the seeds shake about freely in this spherical chile. With its low heat level and tangy flavor the cascabel works well when combined with its spicier cousins. Try it in bean soups or puree with tomatillos for a tangy green salsa.
ORIGIN: Mexico

This case has been settled!
After more than seven years of intense litigation, the Partnership for
Civil Justice Fund announced that it had reached a proposed settlement
with the District of Columbia. The settlement will provide up to $18,000
in compensation for each person arrested in Pershing Park, plus will
impose new policies and practices on the MPD and its attorneys. Those
who were arrested will have their records expunged and their arrests
declared null and void.

Carl Messineo on Fox 5: Allegations of Tampering with Pershing Park Arrest Documents
Fox 5 DC on Pershing Park Mass Arrest Settlement
On the morning of September 27, 2002, the D.C. Police Department working
with the U.S. Park Police encircled Pershing Park, refused to allow
anyone to leave and then arrested and hog-tied peaceful demonstrators,
tourists, passers-by, and legal observers. Many were bound wrist to
ankle on a police gym floor for upwards of 24 hours.
The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia certified this lawsuit as a class action with respect to the Pershing Park arrests, with attorneys at the Partnership for Civil Justice as class counsel.
The Pershing Park case received national and international focus after
it was revealed by the PCJF that the MPD and its attorneys had engaged
in widespread destruction and withholding of evidence. PCJF attorneys
uncovered and exposed that the Command Center Running Resume, a
comprehensive computer database repository of police activity and
decisions on the day of the arrest, had been destroyed. PCJF attorneys,
conducting a painstaking and detailed review of audio recordings also
discovered that the system tapes of the days' dispatch and police radio
communications appeared to have been edited. The District of Columbia
was forced to concede that "some, if not all" of the scores of hours of
radio recordings were missing data.
The Barham settlement exceeds $8.25 million. It comes on the heels of the announced $13.7 million settlement of the mass arrest class action claims in the case of Becker v. District of Columbia, which arose out of an April 15, 2000 mass arrest using the same unlawful police tactics. The PCJF is class counsel in the Becker case also.
The equitable relief provisions in these two class settlements imposes many new requirements on police and attorney practices in demonstration cases, including: That the MPD and the D.C. Office of the Attorney General is required to centrally index and log all materials collected and reviewed in demonstration cases, a measure calculated to create an audit trail that will prevent future acts of evidence destruction; funding is established for document management software to be used to log and index evidence; new mandatory requirements are imposed for the preservation and indexing of, and maintenance of the integrity of, the command center running resume, recorded police communications and video recorded evidence; and ongoing obligations for the Office of the Attorney General to report to PCJF attorneys every six months for the next 3 years on the implementation of these measures. There are additional training and accountability requirements for police personnel including requirements for training on lawful standard operating procedures in the context of First Amendment protected assemblies and mass demonstrations; and additional obligations when the MPD obtains the assistance of outside law enforcement agencies for demonstration related duties.
The arrests of the over 1,000 persons falsely arrested in these two mass arrests will be declared to be "null and void" by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia and all arrest records will be expunged.
The Becker and Barham class action settlements constitute the largest protest-related settlements in U.S. history.

From receipt of your application and required documentation, the majority of accounts can be opened within five working days. The steps are as follows:
As long as you have completed all relevant sections of the application form and enclosed the appropriate certified governing documents to confirm your organisation's legal status we will set up your account and confirm this in writing by sending you a Welcome Pack.
We will contact you within two working days to confirm that you have received your Welcome Pack, at which point we will activate your account and order your account stationery (e.g. paying in book and cheque book, if applicable). We will also set up your Internet Banking facility, if you completed the Internet Banking section on your application form.
If you have decided to transfer your account(s) from another bank, and have completed the Account Transfer Request we will request from your previous bankers any existing Direct Debit and Standing Orders to be transferred to your new account. Whilst we will make every effort to ensure that this happens efficiently and smoothly, we are in the hands of your existing bankers.
We will contact you with the list of all of your Direct Debits and Standing Orders to confirm which of these should be transferred to your new Unity account. Upon receipt of your authority we will advise the beneficiaries of your new account details.
How long will it take to open a new account?
- Although we have no branches, you can nominate a high street bank to deposit and withdraw funds. Some banks do not offer these facilities so we ask you to nominate two options and we will do our best to set up this facility at your first choice. Alternatively, we can provide you with Freepost envelopes so that you can send cheques direct to our clearing centre.
- If you have sent your cheques through the post, using our prepaid envelope service, the first day of clearing will start once our processing centre has received the cheques.

Lemon-Garlic Pork Tenderloin
I enjoy grilling, so I worked hard to develop marinades and sauces to accompany the meats. This blend of tangy lemon and savory garlic mixes perfectly with pork.
2 Servings
Prep: 15 min. + marinating Cook: 30 min.
2 tablespoons canola oil
1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1-1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
3 garlic cloves, minced

1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 pork tenderloin (3/4 pound)
In a resealable plastic bag, combine the oil, lemon juice, peel,
garlic, oregano, salt and pepper; add pork. Seal bag and turn to
coat; refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
Drain and discard marinade. Grill, covered, over medium heat for
about 13-14 minutes on each side or until juices run clear and a
meat thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 5 minutes before
slicing. Yield: 2 servings.
