Another quick collection of interest:
My views on the Liberal Democrats in government – A very good post by Duncan Stephen on his opinions of the party in Government. Too nuanced for a simple summary to suffice, but worth reading regardless of your views of the party and the government.
The Lib Dems need to whistle their way through these dark days – Andrew Rawnsley provides some good advice in his Observer column.
Solving the Lembit for Mayor problem in one easy stroke – Dan Falchikov suggests a much more plausible Lib Dem Mayoral candidate than Lembit. Though admittedly, 'more plausible Mayoral candidate than Lembit' isn't exactly a small field.
Would You Please Fucking Stop? – Ursula K Le Guin on the use and overuse of swearing. May offend people who react badly to certain combinations of letters. (via)
If humanity went extinct, what species would replace us? – Some interesting speculation from io9. My money's on the elephants, not that I'd be around to collect on that bet, obviously.
And a special bonus: Talking with the Councillor about culture – Jason Cobb's article about his interview with me, this time on his blog in case the link to 101 disappears.

text: I like this new law, and I like the ban on Burkas (as well as large crosses and yarmulkes) in schools. I also like the fact that the French only allowed the Notre Dame church (the magnificent church in the heart of Paris) and other churches to stay as the property of the church if they would open it up as a public tourist attraction. Thus, the French don't single out one religion over another; they are simply trying to protect their common values and the separation of church and state. France bans street prayers | Reuters A French ban on praying in the street came into force on Friday, driving thousands of Muslim worshippers in northern Paris into a makeshift prayer site in a disused fire brigade barracks, angering a small but vocal minority. The street-prayer ban has highlighted France's problems assimilating its 5-million-strong Muslim community, which lacks prayer space, and follows a long-running controversy, fanned by far-right leader Marine Le Pen, over Muslims forced to lay their prayer mats on the streets in big cities. Interior Minister Claude Gueant directed Muslims in Paris to temporary spaces made available pending the building of a huge new prayer space and warned that force would be used if necessary as police end their tolerance of street prayers. Seven months before a presidential election, the ban has struck some in France as an attempt to rally far-right sympathizers to President Nicolas Sarkozy's center-right camp.

Father/son team Tweedy have been steadily releasing tracks since the project was first announced — so far, we've heard "I'll Sing It," "Summer Noon," "Wait For Love," "Diamond Light Pt. 1," "Fake Fur Coat," and some live debuts. And here's another semi-new one for you. It's the studio version of "Low Key", which Tweedy played at a show last month, and as the title hints, it's a relatively low-key and laid-back affair. It features some restrained drumming from Spencer Tweedy and a few pleasant "ooh-oohs" from Lucius' Holly Laesig and Jess Wolfe. Listen below.

Welcome to michaela's Member Page
See my Clippings See my Journal See my trade list Send me an email
I like almost any perennial that will grow here in 'Seymourville' located south of Knoxville, TN. I'm especially fond of hardy ferns, mosses, sansevieria, hosta, bulbs, insectivorous plants, and oriental lilies; I also have a reasonable variety of native wildflowers. I once had brief affairs with succulents (non-hardy plants with fat leaves), and iris. Currently, I do enjoy collecting Sansevierias. Basically, I am a plant collector, not a landscaper. I've also kept chickens for about 20 years I presently keep about 30 black australorps and some Americaunas.
I live in: United States
My zone is: z6+ TN
My favorite forum 1 is Sansevieria.

And the award goes to...
The Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club recently recognized Don Wall of Ames by awarding him its Commendation Award at the chapter's Annual Meeting and Awards Celebration north of Ames.
In addition to paying bills and tracking donations, the job of treasurer requires keeping up with policies and laws pertaining to chapter funding and ensuring the chapter complies with 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) funding. The treasurer's position also requires filing laborious reports to the National office for tax purposes and coordinating with Group treasurers to make sure that their reports are also timely.
Thanks, Don, for all you've done to support our chapter!
Don Wall (right) was presented with the Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club's Commendation Award. Jerry Neff, member of the Executive Committee, presented the award at the Chapter's Annual Meeting and Awards Celebration.
Tahirah Elliott, the Zoning Administrator for the city of Hudson, recently accepted the Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club's Public Service Award.
Elliott was recognized for her willingness to support sustainable land use and to speak out against development plans; to fight the drumbeat that every proposal brought before a city must be approved in order to encourage economic development. Her courage in speaking out about planning and zoning issues in her city and to point out violations of her city's land use plan and zoning policies are rare in Iowa. As part of her statement to the city council she said, "We cannot wear blinders concerning the issue of sprawl. Our perspective must be greater than the immediate future and we must not take into account only one factor, our present economic situation. We cannot be short-sighted and we need to realize what the actual cost of this development is." She initiated the process of developing a new comprehensive plan for the city that will include public input as part of the process.
The Chapter's Public Service award is presented to a legislative or governmental employee or appointee who has contributed significantly to environmental issues directly affecting Iowa.
Tahirah Elliott (right) receives the Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club Public Service award for her support of sustainable land use and opposition to development plans. Chapter Executive Committee members Wally Taylor (left) and Jane Clark presented the award.
Dr. Bill Stigliani was recognized for his ongoing work on air quality and environmental health. As a result of his study on the health effects that a 750-megawatt coal plant in Black Hawk County could have on people of all ages, in 2008 the Black Hawk County Board of Health voted to support a statewide moratorium on new coal-fired power plants. The report also recommended that county boards of health be part of the monitoring and permitting process. Dr. Stigliani has presented this information to numerous civic groups and other county boards of health and he continues his dedication to public services—sustainability, energy, recycling, public health, land use, and waste management.
Dr. Stigliani currently is on sabbatical at the Lund University Center for Sustainable Studies [LUCSUS] in Lund, Sweden, and was unable to attend. His wife, Marie, accepted the award on his behalf.
JulieTurner recently was recognized for her grassroots efforts organizing to oppose the proposed damming of the South Raccoon River to create a privately developed lake in Dallas County. The dam would have flooded much of the natural areas along the river valley and when Julie Turner heard about the project, she and Kay Martin contacted people and organizations who might be able to help with the fight to stop the ruination of the Middle Raccoon, South Raccoon and Panther Creek. They organized attendance at meetings, studied what sort of barriers might be found to stop the project, and they challenged the assumptions and misinformation put out by the developers. Julie created a contact list and a website and organized neighbors to plan a strategy and the Friends of the Raccoon River Valley was born. The developers withdrew their offers for land in the area and apparently have folded their tent but Julie continues to lead the organization which is on guard against other assaults to the Raccoon River.
The Grassroots Activist Award may be presented to an individual whose contributions have resulted in significant change regarding the environment in a local community.
Julie Turner accepted the Grassroots Activist award from Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club Executive Committee Member Jim Riggs at the chapter's Annual Meeting and Awards Celebration held recently north of Ames.
The Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club recently recognized John Wenck for his grassroots efforts to organize, clean up and protect the Des Moines River and its water trail. John produced a video of the Des Moines River Cleanup, helped to plan the River Run Garbage Grab and also helped create kiosks about the new Des Moines River Water Trail in Polk County. As the vice president of Iowa Whitewater Coalition (IWC), he has helped spread awareness about the dangers of low-head dams on Iowa's rivers. He promotes getting more people out to experience the beauty of Iowa's rivers and to realize the need to restore and protect them through his photography, saying "Iowa is so beautiful when seen from her rivers." John has also been very active in opposing the NW 26th Street Interchange and MLK Extension through the Des Moines River Valley.
The Grassroots Activist Award may be presented to an individual whose contributions have resulted in significant change regarding the environment in a local community.
John Wenck recently received the Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club's Grassroots Activist award for his efforts to clean up and protect the Des Moines River and its water trail.
Robin Fortney was recognized for her grassroots efforts to organize the Des Moines River "River Run Garbage Grab." Robin held many committee meetings over the past two years, reaching out to volunteers and to businesses, seeking contributions to cover the many expenses involved in a clean-up of this size and organizing all the logistics for the event. Through Robin's planning, hundreds of volunteers have removed tons of trash from the Des Moines River in 2007 and 2008. Cleaning up the Des Moines River and its trails in Polk County reconnects people to an often overlooked natural resource. Everyone who volunteered walked away with a renewed respect for the river and its greenway, and many realized for the first time how much the river needs our help.
The Grassroots Activist Award may be presented to an individual whose contributions have resulted in significant change regarding the environment in a local community.
Robin Fortney received the Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club's Grassroots Activist Award. Chapter Vice Chair Jane Clark presented the award.
The Iowa Chapter of Sierra Club recently presented representatives from Iowans for Saving our Attractive Rural Resources (I-SOARR) its Grassroots Activist Award for organizing supporters to challenge plans by Johnson County Engineering Department to widen and realign a rural roads near the Coralville Reservoir. The area proposed for widening and realigning is heavily wooded, with some farming areas and the road with gentle curves is regularly used by bicyclists. Neighbors, plus some Iowa City residents, banded together to challenge the plan. They were successful in convincing the county supervisors to contract for an independent study, and when the process did not include open meetings that resulted in a final version of the study that was far different from the first draft, ISOARR members worked to change the membership of the Board of Supervisors and to begin a legal challenge of the closed meeting.
Tom Carsner (right) and Larry Meyers accepted the Grassroots Activist award on behalf of I-SOARR. Jane Clark, Iowa Chapter vice chair, presented the award.

Hear Janelle Monae Dance Around David Bowie's 'Heroes'
"The respect is mutual," 'The Electric Lady' singer said
The eclectic Janelle Monáe covering David Bowie makes so much sense, it's a wonder that it didn't happen earlier. The Electric Lady singer, fresh off reviving American Idol, tackled the Thin White Duke's "Heroes" as part of a Pepsi ad campaign, updating the 1977 classic with a peppier, more danceable beat. "Bowie knows what's up," Monae told Rolling Stone, which premiered the song. "He's a fan and I'm a fan of him. The respect is mutual. I hear from his wife Iman that he's a huge supporter of me, the way I dress and my music. I just hope that we made him proud." In an interactive video for the cover, Monae plays a busker on the streets of Rio alongside a number of soccer stars. Check out the standard version of the ad and the audio of "Heroes" below. And for a classic dance version of "Heroes," revisit Big Ben Tribe's 1983 Italo-disco cover.

User Reviews
A fun & exciting watch!I really liked this show and I think it was worth every second of watching. It's got a great character cast. The animation isn't outstanding, but it's good. The voice acting is well done. And if you're searching for something to watch, I really don't think you can go wrong with watching Durarara! I'm definitely watching the next season.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:My favorite anime everThis is the best anime show I've ever seen. The story is amazing, the story telling is amazing and the characters are also extremely interesting. The story starts off like a normal slice of life show, but quickly turns into something else. It starts off with the main character coming to Tokyo to go to school with his childhood friend. After being told not to talk to or mess with a select group of ...Read more
Original, interesting, worth watching.I was hesitant at first, but after watching more, I found such complexity and originality within this anime. Very interesting anime for sure, and unlike many, its ending allowed for closure, as well as reassurance that adventure would continue. Wished I had watched it earlier.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:If you like Baccano!, you will love this!Very awesome plot, akin to Baccano!, because they both start off confusing and then come together in a sort of amazing mind game. Everything suddenly clicks. Interesting, full of action, and some magic thrown in. Great show!
Animation: 5/5
Plot: 5/5
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful:My new favorite animeBrilliant. I stumbled on this anime not knowing what to expect. It's diverse, suspenseful and keeps me on my toes. There is constant twists and turns and surprises and it keeps me from getting bored. It's been awhile since I found an anime that truly keeps me on the edge of my seat. It's unique to the core.

This series came exactly when I needed something slightly dark but entertaining. True, the plot is not absolutely amazing (but it's still good), the pacing is not great, and the plot twists are quite poor. Yet, this work is not about any of that, and you can tell that by the start. It's the characters ...
Amazing Anime! All the Different Characters Makes it Amazing!The very informative backstory from the very first few episodes negated the pacing of the story a little bit but without the explanation, the audience would probably be lost anyways. I really liked how they use a lot of the characters, in the first few episodes, to explain the backstory while implying character development at the same time. It's not only about the main characters but more about ...Read more
One of the best shows I have seen.After watching great shows like Kill la Kill and Gurren Lagann, I thought it would be difficult to find a show that would fill the void. I loved this show. Thevepisodes flowed nicely and are filled with amazing and interesting characters. This show is extremely original and should be seen as one of the best.
A mysterious rider, strong man and three kids all jammed together.I kept thinking when I watched the opening that this resembled Baccano and it was indeed the same author. I liked all the elements of the show. I really had a hard time getting into the show at first because I am a bit of a snob when I start trying to watch a show.Read more
But it pieced together quite well. It's funny how small a world can be or how even looking into our own worlds, we all come ...
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:A Review of DurararaDurarara is truly an interesting piece of work. Similar to Baccano, Durarara doesn't follow the story of just one character, nor does it focus on any one of these characters for long periods of time. Set in the constantly active city of Ikebukoro, Durarara will keep you hooked with it's huge cast of characters, multiple plots, and supernatural elements.Read more

Blogs: CDC in South Africa
Closing the Loop in Medical Diagnostic Laboratory Testing Phases
August 07, 2014, 2:00 pm ET U.S. CDC South Africa Office
Laboratory diagnostic tests play a critical role in the provision of relevant healthcare services. The tests are heavily relied on for making accurate diagnosis, and monitoring of treatment and treatment outcomes. Prevention interventions and surveillance activities also depend on diagnostic tests to function effectively. Therefore, it is very important to make sure that laboratory services are of high quality – as medical decisions made based on them could only be as good as the quality of the results supplied.
Partnerships Bolster African Labs
July 30, 2013, 2:00 pm ET U.S. CDC South Africa Office
Adequate diagnostic capacity is key to improving global health. Here at CDC-South Africa, through the Laboratory Branch, we work closely with the National Health Laboratory Service (NHLS) to continue building laboratory capacity and strengthening laboratory infrastructure for rapid, effective disease response. To ensure sustained enhancement and advancement for laboratory programs, experts in the field, together with CDC-South Africa's Division of Global HIV/AIDS (DGHA) International Laboratory Branch, are regularly meeting and developing partnerships. I recently attended two meetings that were very important to the continued advancement of laboratory programs in Africa. These meetings are described below.
ASLM 2012, Addressing the Fundamental Strengthening of Laboratory Systems to Improve Healthcare and Save Lives in Africa
December 12, 2012, 2:00 pm ET U.S. CDC South Africa Office
The U.S. CDC's role in the global health response is multi-faceted, and at the core is the agency's role in establishing and strengthening international laboratories for rapid, effective disease response. The impact of CDC's work in building sustainable and robust laboratories worldwide was evident last week at the African Society for Laboratory Medicine's (ASLM) First International Conference in Cape Town, South Africa December 1-7.

Verso Paper Corp. Announces Proposed $345 Million Debt Offering And Commitments From Lenders For New Credit Facilities
Verso Paper Corp. (NYSE:VRS) announced today that its subsidiaries, Verso Paper Holdings LLC and Verso Paper Inc. (the "Issuers"), propose to issue $345 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2019 (the "Notes") in a private offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Notes will be guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of Verso.
Verso also announced today that it has received commitments from lenders for a new $150 million asset-based revolving loan facility and a new $50 million first-priority revolving facility. These commitments would be utilized in lieu of Verso's previously announced $100.0 million of commitments for an accounts receivable securitization facility and approximately $55.0 million of commitments to provide a new and/or extended revolving facility under Verso Holdings' existing senior secured revolving credit facility.
Verso intends to enter into the new credit facilities as soon as practicable following the completion of the Notes offering and upon satisfaction of customary conditions. While Verso has received commitments from lenders for the proposed new credit facilities, there can be no assurance that Verso will enter into such facilities. The new credit facilities will replace Verso's existing $200 million revolving credit facility which matures on August 1, 2012.
Verso's subsidiaries that intend to issue and guarantee the Notes are the same entities that issued and guaranteed Verso's existing senior secured notes. The Notes will be secured by first priority security interests in the "Notes Priority Collateral" (which generally includes most fixed assets of the Issuers and the guarantors) and by second priority security interests in the "ABL Priority Collateral" (which generally includes most inventory and accounts receivable of the Issuers and the guarantors), in each case subject to certain permitted liens and as described in the offering circular relating to the Notes.

Tea Light Frame
By: Tiffany Windsor
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Are you all out of frame craft ideas? Have no fear - we have the perfect project for you. A Tea Light Frame from Tiffany Windsor is a fun, whimsical take on a classic idea. This is a great gift for a friend or family member.
- Frame (white or desired color)
- Scissors
- Wooden skewer
- Tea lights (I used traditional size and oversize tea lights)
- Aleene's Liquid Fusion Glue
- Rustoleum Flat White Spray Paint
- Flat backed marbles
- Quote for center of frame
- Wooden skewer (to hold pieces in place while spray painting)
- Spray gloss (optional)
- Select tea lights. ( On this project, I have used traditional sized tea lights and oversized tea lights that I purchased at Ikea.)
- If the tea light is new, just grab wick and pull out the wick and wax. If the tea light is used, remove the remaining wick and metal. You will also need to remove any left-over wax so that your paint will stick. (I like to use new tea lights so that no wax remains inside. Keep the wax candles - you can burn them in votives.)
- The metal used in tea lights is very thin and easy to cut. Make first cut in side of metal.
- Space cuts for desired number of petals.
- Place face down on tabletop and press flat with palm of hand.
- Use scissors to round edges of petals. You might want to wear protective eyewear during this step because the small sharp corners can fly when you cut them off. Also, use a paper towel, wet wipe or fabric to remove these small pieces into your trash can. In other words, don't use your hands to clear these tiny cut pieces from your tabletop. They are sharp!
- All the petal corners are rounded.
- Now it's time to give your petals some shape. Using two fingers, press and fold the edges of each petal to the center.
- Then fold back. You can also use a wooden skewer or toothpick to turn the edges of your petals for a different look.
- Repeat on each petal to create a pretty dimensional flower.
- In well ventilated area, spray each flower. I use a wooden skewer to hold the flower in place while spraying. These flowers are really light-weight and can fly around when you try to spray them so it's easier just to hold them in place. Spray back side first. Let dry. Spray front side. Let dry.
- Lay out on frame to determine desired placement. Snug the flowers together and overlap petals. You may also need to cut some flowers in half to fill in open spaces. Glue each flower in place on frame. Let glue dry.
- After my flowers were glued in place and completely dry, I re-sprayed the entire frame with white again and let dry completely.
- If desired, spray with gloss finish. (Be sure to test compatibility of your gloss finish with your spray paint. My gloss finish wrinkled the paint which was fine with me but if that is not your desired final finish, be sure to test compatibility first!)
- If desired, glue flat back marbles in center of flowers. You can also use beads or other embellishments and trinkets for your flower centers. I also found a beveled glass circle that fit perfectly inside my large flowers. I pressed a silk flower and leaves underneath the glass and glued in place.
- I stacked a vellum quote over scrapbook paper for the center focus of my frame.
- You can also use these large (or small) flowers individually to create pretty magnets. On this magnet, I stamped a word on hand-colored paper. You can use dabs of glue to hold in place or reverse decoupage the paper to the back of your glass and then glue the glass in place.

How to Become an Orthopedic Technician in 5 Steps
Orthopedic technicians help doctors and orthopedic surgeons in acute and clinical settings with tasks such as removing casts and splints. Find out about other job duties as well as education and certification options. Schools offering Medical Assisting degrees can also be found in these popular choices.
What Is an Orthopedic Technician?
Orthopedic technicians, or orthopaedic technicians, fit patients with canes, braces and other orthotic devices. You may also measure and fit patients with prosthetics. Adjusting bandages, making plaster casts and handling traction equipment under the supervision of an orthopedic physician may round out your duties.
Step 1: Earn Your High School Diploma
A high school diploma is required for admission to orthopedic technician or technology programs. In high school, it's important to pay attention to math and English classes; some schools require that assessment tests in these subject areas be passed prior to admittance into the relevant program.
Step 2: Enroll in a Postsecondary Program
Technical schools and colleges offer orthopedic technician or technology programs that commonly result in a certificate or an associate degree. Training usually includes classes in anatomy, mathematics, medical terminology, splint application, aseptic techniques and physiology.
Step 3: Complete Training in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
Off-site, hands-on coursework is required in most orthopedic technician or technology programs. Prior to undertaking this component of the program, you may need to show proof that you've been certified in CPR through the American Heart Association.
Step 4: Undertake Hands-On Training
Many programs include practicums or an externship. This provides clinical or on-the-job training, allowing you to gain practice in local hospitals or other medical facilities. You'll learn to apply orthopedic technology terminology, basic practices and policies in a real-life setting.
Step 5: Earn Certification in the Field
Graduates of approved orthopedic technology programs may pursue the optional Orthopaedic Technologist Certified (OTC) credential offered through the National Board for Certification of Orthopaedic Technologists (www.nbcot.net). If you haven't met education requirements, you may still be eligible if you complete a certain amount of work experience. In order to gain the credential, you must complete an examination.

A few months ago I went to Princeton University to see what the young people who are going to be running our country in a few decades are like. Faculty members gave me the names of a few dozen articulate students, and I sent them e-mails, inviting them out to lunch or dinner in small groups. I would go to sleep in my hotel room at around midnight each night, and when I awoke, my mailbox would be full of replies—sent at 1:15 a.m., 2:59 a.m., 3:23 a.m.
In our conversations I would ask the students when they got around to sleeping. One senior told me that she went to bed around two and woke up each morning at seven; she could afford that much rest because she had learned to supplement her full day of work by studying in her sleep. As she was falling asleep she would recite a math problem or a paper topic to herself; she would then sometimes dream about it, and when she woke up, the problem might be solved. I asked several students to describe their daily schedules, and their replies sounded like a session of Future Workaholics of America: crew practice at dawn, classes in the morning, resident-adviser duty, lunch, study groups, classes in the afternoon, tutoring disadvantaged kids in Trenton, a cappella practice, dinner, study, science lab, prayer session, hit the StairMaster, study a few hours more. One young man told me that he had to schedule appointment times for chatting with his friends. I mentioned this to other groups, and usually one or two people would volunteer that they did the same thing. "I just had an appointment with my best friend at seven this morning," one woman said. "Or else you lose touch."
The Next Ruling Class?
What makes today's students tick? And how did they get this way? Join David Brooks for a special forum on this article, in Post & Riposte.
There are a lot of things these future leaders no longer have time for. I was on campus at the height of the election season, and I saw not even one Bush or Gore poster. I asked around about this and was told that most students have no time to read newspapers, follow national politics, or get involved in crusades. One senior told me she had subscribed to The New York Times once, but the papers had just piled up unread in her dorm room. "It's a basic question of hours in the day," a student journalist told me. "People are too busy to get involved in larger issues. When I think of all that I have to keep up with, I'm relieved there are no bigger compelling causes." Even the biological necessities get squeezed out. I was amazed to learn how little dating goes on. Students go out in groups, and there is certainly a fair bit of partying on campus, but as one told me, "People don't have time or energy to put into real relationships." Sometimes they'll have close friendships and "friendships with privileges" (meaning with sex), but often they don't get serious until they are a few years out of college and meet again at a reunion—after their careers are on track and they can begin to spare the time.
I went to lunch with one young man in a student dining room that by 1:10 had emptied out, as students hustled back to the library and their classes. I mentioned that when I went to college, in the late 1970s and early 1980s, we often spent two or three hours around the table, shooting the breeze and arguing about things. He admitted that there was little discussion about intellectual matters outside class. "Most students don't like that that's the case," he told me, "but it is the case." So he and a bunch of his friends had formed a discussion group called Paidea, which meets regularly with a faculty guest to talk about such topics as millennialism, postmodernism, and Byzantine music. If discussion can be scheduled, it can be done.
The students were lively conversationalists on just about any topic—except moral argument and character-building, about which more below. But when I asked a group of them if they ever felt like workaholics, their faces lit up and they all started talking at once. One, a student-government officer, said, "Sometimes we feel like we're just tools for processing information. That's what we call ourselves—power tools. And we call these our tool bags." He held up his satchel. The other students laughed, and one exclaimed, "You're giving away all our secrets."
But nowhere did I find any real unhappiness with this state of affairs; nowhere did I find anybody who seriously considered living any other way. These super-accomplished kids aren't working so hard because they are compelled to. They are facing, it still appears, the sweetest job market in the nation's history. Investment banks flood the campus looking for hires. Princeton also offers a multitude of post-graduation service jobs in places like China and Africa. Everyone I spoke to felt confident that he or she could get a good job after graduation. Nor do these students seem driven by some Puritan work ethic deep in their cultural memory. It's not the stick that drives them on, it's the carrot. Opportunity lures them. And at a place like Princeton, in a rich information-age country like America, promises of enjoyable work abound—at least for people as smart and ambitious as these. "I want to be this busy," one young woman insisted, after she had described a daily schedule that would count as slave-driving if it were imposed on anyone.

Long campaign over lawn signs
|Signs in front of the home of Tom Arras on Main Street South in Woodbury endorse Republican Mark Greenberg for Congress and criticize Zoning Commission Chairman Martin Overton. The commission has indicated a willingness to remove a regulation limiting political signs on private property.
WOODBURY — Election Day has come and gone once again, but the campaign for the campaign signs marches on.
For those in town seeking to eliminate all regulations on political signs, the issue goes beyond electoral politics. They argue any sign expressing an opinion on a public matter should face no government restriction or risk violating the state constitution and the U.S Constitution's First Amendment protection of freedom of expression.

Military Medicine Museum
History of St. Petersburg Museum: Rumyantsev Mansion
By Gus Peters
The St. Petersburg Times
Published: April 16, 2014 (Issue # 1806)
Manifesta, the biennial contemporary art festival that St. Petersburg is scheduled to host this year, has already run into its fair share of criticism. Artists have begun to boycott the event because of the situation in Ukraine, while St. Petersburg's city hall has scrambled to rescue the reputation of an event that some in the local art community deem inappropriate considering the political climate.
However, the festival is not simply about artists in the painting, sculpting and photographing sense. In collaboration with the Goethe Institute of St. Petersburg, St. Petersburg will also be host to Manifest 10: Favorite Movies of Contemporary Artists, a film festival starting Apr. 17, two months before the official opening of the art exhibition.
Eight artists have chosen movies that are their favorites, ones they say that they can watch again and again without ever becoming bored.
As anyone will tell you, it is difficult to choose a favorite film and, for some people, the answers the artists give may seem like an unlikely choice. In this particular variation of a film festival, each artist will present his or her film to the assembled audience, screen the film and then discuss its merits so that viewers not only attain a greater understanding of the film but a better idea of the artist's influences.
The first film of the festival, Billy Wilder's comedy "One, Two, Three," screens on Apr. 17. Wilder's classic follows the exploits of a Coca-Cola salesman in Cold War Berlin who tries his best to keep his boss' daughter from marrying an East German communist. The movie is the choice of Kasper König, an icon in the contemporary art world as well as the curator of this year's Manifesta in St. Petersburg.
The film festival will culminate on Oct. 17 with the showing of "The Dead," the 1987 drama inspired by the James Joyce short story from his famous collection "The Dubliners." The film is the pick of Susan Phillips, an artist born in Scotland in 1960 who won the Turner Prize for contemporary art in 1960, the most prestigious British art award available. She lives and works in Berlin.
The films will be shown intermittently throughout the course of the coming six months. One of the other films is Federico Fellini's "8 1/2," the choice of Katharina Fritsch, a German sculptor. The film is about an Italian director in the midst of a creative crisis who decides to find inspiration in his own thoughts and memories.
John Varsha, the curator of public programs for this year's festival, chose "Soy Cuba," an ode to the Cuban revolution in 1959 that shocked the world and transformed Fidel Castro and Che Guevara from unknown rebels to international icons. The movie, made in 1964 by Soviet filmmakers, is a series of short stories detailing the struggle to overthrow then-dictator Fulgencio Batista.
"Soy Cuba" might not be the only film to portray the effects of communism in a positive light either. Pavel Braila, a Moldovan filmmaker, chose "12:08 East of Bucharest" as his selection for Manifesta's festival. The film is similar to "Soy Cuba" in that it is a series of vignettes rather than one coherent storyline but unlike the other film's portrayal of the socialist revolution as an uplifiting, proletarian experience, Braila's choice of movie tries to answer more difficult questions about whether or not the revolution that deposed Nicolae Ceausescu in 1989 was, in fact, a revolution to help the people or something different.
The film festival will feature eight favorite films of some of the festival's more prominent participants. All featured films will be shown at the Avrora Cinema at 60 Nevsky Prospekt.
The art festival is scheduled to begin on June 28 and stay in St. Petersburg until Oct. 31. The State Hermitage Museum is the planned sight for the artists' work and St. Petersburg's city hall hopes that the event will boost the international image of the city.
Deputy Governor Vasily Kichedzhi was quoted on City Hall's website on Feb. 12 as saying that "Manifesta 10 is one of the main events of the Year of Culture in Russia."

With CSR In Global Demand, Corporate Reputation Is At Stake, According To New Research From Cone Communications And Echo Research
BOSTON, May 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- No longer a nice-to-do, corporate social responsibility is now a reputational imperative – or liability. As revealed in the 2013 Cone Communications/Echo Global CSR Study, released today, companies are expected to be an active participant – if not a driving force – in solving the most pressing social and environmental issues. Corporations that disregard this consumer-demanded role risk more than their reputation – nine-in-10 global citizens say they would boycott if they learned of irresponsible behavior.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111004/NE79797LOGO)
The study, a follow-up to the 2011 global survey of consumer attitudes, perceptions and behaviors around CSR, was conducted by Cone Communications and Echo Research. Reflecting the sentiments of more than 10,000 citizens in 10 of the largest countries in the world by GDP, including the United States, Canada, Brazil, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia, China, India and Japan, the research is complemented with insights from country-specific CSR experts.
"Consumers across the globe resoundingly affirm CSR as a critical business strategy," says Dan Soulas, managing director of Echo Research. "It is vital for companies to understand the unique, market-level nuances to effectively participate in the CSR interchange. A one-size-fits-all approach just won't work."CSR has never been more urgent – incidents of corporate negligence are tenaciously reported by mass media, but consumers all over the world are also taking to social channels to learn and engage around critical issues without constraint. Nearly two-thirds of global consumers (62%) say they use social media to address or engage with companies around CSR. Although the majority shares positive information with their networks, more than a quarter are communicating negative news:
- 34% of consumers use social media to share positive information about companies and issues
- 29% are using social media to learn more about specific organizations and issues
- 26% are using social media to share negative information
- 22% of consumers believes companies have made significant positive impact on social and environmental issues
- 27% believes consumers themselves can have significant positive impact through their purchases
