I graduated from Ohio State in 2009 with a Bachelor of Arts in Chinese and Japanese, and a Master's inChinese through the Chinese Flagship Program.
I chose Ohio State because it was close to home, but it enabled me to reach further in distance and aptitude. After studying one year of Chinese at Ohio State, my instructors recommended me to participate in an elementary study abroad program in Qingdao. I participated in the Chinese Flagship Program's study abroad portion which included both language-focused classes as well as normal Chinese graduate course study where we were allowed to choose which subjects we wanted to study. I also participated in several internship programs arranged by Ohio State, the most memorable of which was my volunteering with the Qingdao Olympic Committee for the sailing portion of the 2008 Olympic Games in Qingdao.
I was born and raised in a small farming community near Wooster, Ohio and started my studies at Ohio State's Agricultural Technical Institute. I then transferred to the Mansfield branch and eventually landed in Columbus. I graduated from Ohio State in 1991 with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and Public Relations.
I currently live and work in Shanghai, where I serve as vice president for Asia sourcing with Lowe's Home Improvement. In many ways Shanghai reminds me of Ohio State—there is great diversity in the people and so many awesome opportunities to experience.
I graduated from Ohio State in 1984 with a Bachelor of Sciences in Business Administration and Marketing. My father also attended The Ohio State University. I came to China at the recommendation of Roger Blackwell, a professor of mine. From one comment by him came my decision to come to China.
Ohio State affected me and my career paths internationally. In today's world, it is almost impossible to remain isolated. How could you lead without an international understanding?
My attraction to East Asia was first sparked in 1999, when my wife and I adopted a baby girl from Hunan, China. Then in 2004, I was chosen by Minru Li of Ohio State to participate in the first term of the Wuhan University Summer Intensive English program, which brings educators from across the U.S. to teach interactive, theme-based English lessons in China.
Meet Michael Smith, a 2000 graduate of the Fisher College of Business at Ohio State. As a member of the Honors Business Cohort, he enrolled in an import/export class where he communicated with students at a sister university in Johannesburg, South Africa, using video chat technology. Michael marks this experience as the first time he began to appreciate the ability to connect around the globe.
I participated in four study abroad experiences during my time at Ohio State: the London Honors program through Ohio State; the Institute for Balkan Studies International Summer School for Greek Language, History and Culture; the Summer Modern Greek Program at the University of Athens; and the London Theatre Program through Ohio State (for which I received the International Travel Grant funded by the Office of the Executive Dean of the Colleges of Arts and Sciences).
I studied abroad in London, England my freshman year, and participated in the Canadian Parliament Internship later in my college career. The Canadian experience was run through multiple universities, but Ohio State was unique in that we had a class to prepare us for the experience. Without that initial support, I would not have had such a positive experience, nor would I have been as effective in my internship. Ohio State made sure we were prepared and had a "leg up" on other interns participating in the program.
I remember looking through the course listings for my final quarter at Ohio State and when I saw the class about the Lost Generation and a trip to Paris, I couldn't be more excited. I had already traveled to Paris with a group from my high school and I had been dying to go back. I loved my experience studying abroad and honestly, had I done something like that earlier in my college career, I would have done another one. I learned so much, met some great people and got to spend my spring break in my favorite city in the world.
I took advantage of two study abroad trips during my undergrad at Ohio State. One was Literary Locations: American Expatriate Writers in Paris (spring 2006). The other was the English Literature Program at University of Greenwich (summer 2007), for which I received a scholarship through the College of Arts and Sciences Study Abroad Fund. Studying abroad during my time at Ohio State was a huge part of how and why I decided to go to grad school in England.

Volcker Rule: Now or Never
Large banks "sometimes have to take a position to hedge against exposure," and if the "Volcker Rule covers that type of trading, it is very difficult to stay in business if they can't actively balance their risk in some way," according to McGovern.
Mayer says he "would imagine we will see congressional hearings in fairly short order," and let's face it -- we all love these hearings, as we watch executives get grilled.
But more importantly, Congress can provide a clear direction for regulators as the Volker Rule is implemented, since "investors are going to want to know whether the institution they are investing in is adopting an approved hedging strategy or is in some exception area, and there may be a premium associated with that," according to Mayer, who adds that "the market is sometimes ahead of the regulators."

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Djinn Breeze
Go inside the Tret tree. To get to the entrance, there are vines going around his face. Solve the puzzles and get through the little mazes until you reach a room with a Psyenergy Stone and a chest. It is on level 4 of the tree. You may get those if desired. In that same room is a vine to get out. Climb it to get to another room (level 5). In that room, there is an entrance at the bottom. Go there, and follow the branches until you get to another vine going to another branch. Climb the vine and follow the branch. One of the branches leads to a room, level 6, with a chest. That same room is the one used to get to Tret (follow the path to the middle leaf, then jump off it. Jump back to it to fall through and end up at the bottom of the tree. There you will find Tret). You will finally see a final branch. Follow it and at the end is Breeze. You must battle him to use him.

Moonstruck (1987), starring Cher and Nick Cage, is one of my favorite movies. The screenplay by John Patrick Shanley is smart, tight and psychologically savvy. Cher is brilliant. Cage is convincingly intense and passionate. He plays a man who has lost his hand in a tragic accident, and with it, his fiancee and all hope for future happiness. Cage's character could be viewed as providing a perfect dramatic depiction of the American Psychiatric Association's newly proposed Post-Traumatic Embitterment Disorder. (See my previous post.)
Post-traumatic embitterment disorder is, at present, only a proposed addition to the forthcoming DSM-V. Like PTSD (see my previous post) , PTED will, if included, probably apply to a person experiencing, witnessing or being directly confronted with a highly traumatic (though, unlike PTSD, not necessarily life-threatening) event or events (e.g., difficult divorce, major losses, serious illness, disability, physical or emotional abuse, etc.) leading to chronic ( more than three months minimally, but more realistically, I would say at least one year) feelings of anger, resentment or rage, and the obsessive, sometimes compelling desire for revenge and retribution. As with most diagnosable mental disorders today, the degree of embitterment would need, by definition, to cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other important areas of functioning.

New Dev diary from The Secret World
Even if you want to forget about The Secret World, EA and FunCom won't let you. In addition to multiple teaser trailers, they have now released a dev diary that takes a look at pvp and factions. The nice thing is that this trailer shows some actual gameplay, so you have a better idea of what you might expect from the title.
The Secret World still looks like fun, the factions still look interesting and I still like the idea of mixing legends and stories with secret societies in a modern setting. These guys really don't need to do anything more to convince me to try their game, I'm sold, but extra information is always nice, so I have no reason to complain about the dev diary. I do kind of wish I was playing the game, instead of watching a video about it though.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Political parties
The Italian Socialist Party (Italian: Partito Socialista Italiano, PSI) is a minor social-democratic[3] political party in Italy.
The party was founded in 2007–2008 by the merger of six minor social-democratic parties and groups: the Italian Democratic Socialists, Democracy and Socialism, The Italian Socialists, the Socialist Party–De Michelis, the Association for the Rose in the Fist and Socialism is Freedom. Until October 2009, the party was known simply as the Socialist Party (Partito Socialista, PS). Since July 2008 Riccardo Nencini, of Tuscany, has been party leader.
A merger of all the parties coming from the tradition of the late Italian Socialist Party (PSI), disbanded in 1994 as a result of Tangentopoli scandals, was initially proposed by Enrico Boselli during a congress of the Italian Democratic Socialists (SDI) in April 2007. In that occasion the party decided not to join the Democratic Party (PD) and called for a "Socialist Constituent Assembly" (Costituente Socialista) aimed at uniting all Socialists instead.
Some minor parties and associations, including The Italian Socialists of Bobo Craxi, Socialism is Freedom of Rino Formica and the Association for the Rose in the Fist of Lanfranco Turci immediately welcomed the proposal by Enrico Boselli. In June 2007 the Socialist Party – New PSI (NPSI) split in two groups: the first, led by Stefano Caldoro, opted to stay within the House of Freedoms; the second, led by Gianni De Michelis, agreed to join the Constituent Assembly. The former retained the NPSI identity, while the latter formed the Socialist Party–De Michelis. At its foundation in October 2007 the PS was joined also by Democracy and Socialism, a group of former Democrats of the Left coming from Democratic Left.
At the 2008 general election the PS stood alone and Boselli was its candidate for Prime Minister.[4] In the election, the Socialist Party gained less than 1% of the vote and failed to win any seats in the Italian Parliament.
Out of Parliament[edit]
At the first party congress, which took place on 4–6 July 2008, Riccardo Nencini was elected secretary, replacing Boselli, while Pia Elda Locatelli was elected president.[5] In September Nencini, proposed a new "reformist axis" comprising the Democratic Party (PD), the Union of Christian and Centre Democrats (UDC) and the Socialists, while explaining that the Democrats needed to choose between the reformism of the PS and the populism of Italy of Values (IdV).[6]
In October 2008 Gavino Angius led his group into the PD, proposing that the entire PS should follow him.[7][8][9][10] In reply Nencini underlined that no former members of the late PSI were leaving the party. In fact, Spini, the only former Socialist in Angius' group, chose to stay in the PS.[11] However, Gianni De Michelis left the party soon after.[12]
For the 2009 European Parliament election the PS formed a joint list named Left and Freedom (SL) with the Movement for the Left, the Federation of the Greens, the Democratic Left and Unite the Left.[13] SL received a mere 3.1% of the national vote and failed to return any MEPs. Despite this, the national council of the PS chose to continue the experience of SL in order to build a "secular, libertarian and left-wing" force which would join the PES.[14] This led to the exit of Bobo Craxi, who launched the United Socialists in October.[15] However, one month later, the PS suddenly left SL, having refused to merge into it and lose its identity.[16] The party otherwise chose to support joint candidates with the PD and run its own lists in the forthcoming 2010 regional elections.[17] Subsequently Craxi renewed his party membership.[18]
At the 2010 regional elections the PSI elected a total of 15 regional councillors.[19] The party had its best results in Apulia (9.7% with SEL and 4 councillors out of the 11 elected by SEL), Basilicata (4.6% and 1 councillor), Umbria (4.2% and 2 councillors), Campania (3.5% with SEL and 2 councillors out of 2) and Calabria (3.7%, just 0.3% short of the electoral threshold). At a congress in July Nencini was re-elected secretary, but the party was divided between three political lines: the majority of Nencini supporting a "reformist" alliance with the PD, UDC and SEL (excluding IdV and the Communist Refoundation Party, PRC), the "autonomist" wing led by Craxi and the "frontist" wing in favour of a stronger co-operation with SEL.[12]
In December 2010 Enrico Boselli, long-time SDI leader and PS/PSI founder, who had left active politics after his 2008 defeat, joined Alliance for Italy.[20]
Return to Parliament[edit]
In November 2011 Carlo Vizzini, a senator of The People of Freedom (PdL) and former secretary of the Italian Democratic Socialist Party (PSDI), joined the party, giving it parliamentary representation again after more than three years. While leaving the PdL, Vizzini stated: "It seems to me that the PdL is set to become the Italian section of the European People's Party. I come from another tradition: I have been secretary of the PSDI and I was one of the founders of the Party of European Socialists. When I joined Forza Italia there were Liberals, Socialists, Radicals. Now everything has changed."[21]
The PSI did well in the 2012 municipal elections. In Carrara the Socialist mayor Angelo Zubbani was re-elected by a landslide and the party obtained 14.4% of the vote. The PSI also won 15.1% in Todi, 8.9% in Narni, 7.2% in Civitanova Marche, 9.5% in Frosinone, 11.8% in Paola, and 9.4% in Trapani.[22]
In the 2013 general election the PSI was part of the Italy Common Good coalition headed by PD leader Pier Luigi Bersani,[23] whom the PSI supported in the 2012 centre-left primary election. In the election the party elected 4 deputies and 2 senators in the lists of the PD. Nencini was elected to the Senate.
Popular support[edit]
Similarly to its precursors, the PSI has its strongholds in Southern and Central Italy.
In the 2008 general election it got 1.8% in Umbria, 2.0% in Calabria (2.8% for the Senate), 2.8% in Basilicata, and 1.6% in Apulia. In the 2010 regional elections the party confirmed its strength in its strongholds: 4.2% in Umbria, 3.7% in Calabria, 4.6% in Basilicata, 9.7% in Apulia (along with SEL), and 3.5% in Campania. In the 2013 regional election the party increased its percentage of the vote to 7.5% in Basilicata.
- Secretary: Enrico Boselli (2007–2008), Riccardo Nencini (2008–present)
- Co-ordinator: Marco Di Lello (2008–2014), Gianfranco Schietroma (2014–present)
- Treasurer: Oreste Pastorelli (2008–present)
- President: Pia Elda Locatelli (2008–2010), Carlo Vizzini (2014–present)

This is that life-saving, thick, pasta-and-bean meal of a soup as sung about by Dean Martin in "That's Amore." It's just the thing you want to eat when the rain's battering against the windowpanes and just what you need to cook to make you feel that you're safe and warm, happy and occupied within.
I have to say, it's the first time I've included a knee-high hosiery sock among any list of ingredients. By all means bundle the rosemary and onion into cheesecloth if it makes you feel more satisfactorily homespun, but I am just not one of those efficiently traditional domestic types that keeps cheesecloths and muslins on hand.
Put the cranberry beans in a large bowl, cover with cold water and let the beans soak overnight or for at least 6 hours.
Drain the beans and tip them into a large saucepan. Using the flat side of a large knife, press down on the whole garlic cloves so that their papery skins tear and begin to come away. Peel them and chuck the bruised cloves on top of the beans. Now take your knee-high and in it pop the sprigs of rosemary and cut-up onion. This will stop the needles (which turn bitter on boiling) from infiltrating the soup (very irritating between the teeth, too) but allow their resiny fragrance to seep through. I also find it better not to have slimy onion skins all over the place later. Cover everything generously with cold water, clamp on a lid and bring to the boil. Once it's started boiling, turn the heat down and simmer for an hour. Check the beans to see how cooked they are and, only when they're tender, add salt to taste.
Chuck out the corpsed knee-high and its contents. Remove a mugful of beans—or more if you want a very thick soup—and tip into a blender (my preference) or processor, along with a tablespoonful of tomato concentrate and 1¼ cups of the bean-cooking liquid and liquidize.
Now, add the 3 tablespoons of oil to a small saucepan and grate (I always use my fine Microplane for this) or squeeze in the sixth clove of garlic. Cook over a low to medium heat until soft but not colored and then stir in the finely chopped rosemary. Cook for another scant minute, add the liquidized soup and cook for a minute or so, then tip into the large pan of beans. Bring back to the boil and add the ditalini, cooking them according to package instructions. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and serve.

As it was marketed in 1989
Ah, good old Tetris. Has there ever been a game with as rampant a one-more-go factor? Unless you count having a heavy crack habit as a game (instantly appealing gameplay, short lifespan, minimal replay value, 5/10) then the chances are, no. The constantly gratifying line destruction. The all-or-nothing tension of waiting for the long block to complete your meticulously-planned tetris. The increasing obsession with that much-needed geometry, that projects bricks onto the inside of your eyelids and haunts your every dream.
As it would be marketed now
Hmmm, how could the modern market capitalise on such a beautifully simple and universal experience if it appeared now? Simple really. It's not that they'd be ripping you off of course. Just offering an enhanced experience for those players willing to pay. They'd even probably give players with pre-release registration a few bonus long blocks for half-price. Now there's a valuable incentive.
As it was marketed in 1985
The Mario series has always been a tale of an ordinary, honest, blue-collar man using his natural abilities and winsome tenacity to save the woman he loves. He runs, he jumps, he throws and he kicks, but his high spirits and dedication to the cause are what really get him through.
As it would be marketed now
Get with the program, Nintendo! There's Royalty at risk! You don't send a plumber to do a SWAT team's job. Gritty realism is far more important to modern gaming than the folly of whimsically designed, characterful worlds. If a dignitary needs rescuing, you send a shaven-headed marine. Straight in, straight out, and with as much high-speed killing as possible in between. Why be endearing when you can be flesh-searing?
As it was marketed in 1992
Oh Dizzy, you sweet, naive, foolish egg. Always merrily romping through your Magiclands and Fantasy Worlds with a winning smile and a striving enthusiasm to save the day. Today's gamer would never accept such petty conceits as doing good and saving the world. If the world hasn't already ended before the game even starts, then where are we to get our much needed dose of bleak, hopelessly destructive nihilism?
As it would be marketed now
Forget Crystal Kingdom Dizzy. Nowadays we'd demand Post-Apocalyptic Wasteland Dizzy, wherein the only item trading the ovoid one would carry out would involve collecting dead children's severed limbs to supply cannibalistic mutants in exchange for armour-piercing incendiary rounds. After all, if there was anything worth saving, we might have to reconsider killing everything in sight, and we certainly don't want to do that.
As it was marketed in 1976
Breakout is an evergreen stalwart of computer, console, mobile phone, browser, and soon no doubt heavily-modified matchbox. And it's stuck around for a reason. It's a perfect, bite-sized mix of action game and puzzler, with instantly accessible gameplay and clear, simple presentation that you'd have to be as intelligent as a rhino's haemorrhoid not to understand.
As it would be marketed now
But screw that. No-one will accept simple, clear presentation of a simple, enjoyable game when it can be saturated with eight billion polygons of realistic carnage and Hiroshima-belittling explosions. So what if the game itself is just the same, simple, bat-sliding affair? Just play to the modern gamer's blistering graphical tech-lust and bang out a few ads full of "illustrative footage" and you'll be absolutely fine. Well, usually.
Marketing bullshit gamers should stop being a part of

text: Let's face it Matt Cassell hasn't started since 1999 and that was in High School ! Brady is probably one of the best ever QBs in NFL history, now what ? The team is also going with 2 rookie back ups, please. I'm losing faith in Bill's judgement on this. The Pats need an available experienced guy to be signed. Forget Bledsoe, Flutie, and some other has retired has been. Joey Harrington is not the best QB in the NFL and certainly wouldn't beat out Brady , but he has the potential and has a proven record of experience within the NFL and is available as of last night. There are teams looking at Joey Harrington, since he was cut 8/31 from the Falcons. With protection and weapons the Pats have, Joey could be a star. He has a very strong desire to win games, and has hit multiple receivers and has late game comebacks, has descent stats with not so descent teams. WAKE UP BILL. We need an NFL QB with Joey's potential, sign him before someone else does.
