Section Description
English 41: Murder and Mayhem in Fiction and Film. This course will explore the detective and mystery genre from its initial emergence with Edgar Allan Poe's detective trilogy and Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes tales to contemporary adaptations by Sara Paretsky, Walter Mosley, Denis Lehane, Stieg Larsson, among several others. We will explore various categories of detective fiction, including the Classic tales, the Golden Age, the hard-boiled and film noir, multicultural detection, and lesbian narratives. Some questions the course will address include: Who is the detective figure and how do differences of race, gender, sexuality, and class affect his/her methods of detection? How do certain detective methods reflect the detective?s historical context? What are the detectives? limitations? How do these detectives comment upon and critique social and political concerns as well as ethical and moral problems? How do these narratives mirror and promote cultural norms and knowledges? What is the relationship between detective fiction and its audience? In addition to literary representations, we will also examine the detective figure in film and popular culture.

To be really honest never did it till I met the guy I'm with, now honestly when I do I think of him. Honestly. I'm sure its not the same for every girl, but for me I'm highly attracted to my guy on every level and our sex life is great so Ik that's why its him I'm thinking of and no one else!
um...everyone has a view and thingies...for me? it is a >Sin< so I do not. I need a hubby! *glomps someone*
I'm curious what make it a sin for girls to masturbate? Surely it's no more sinful than randomly glomping! lol

it's bad because we say it is?not a type of reasoning I like
"it's bad because we say it is?" No, its bad for me, in my religion, not for others who think differently, this is my opinion and I responded as asked. "not a type of reasoning I like" you do not have to like my opinion, everyone has there own, acceptance is the key. Believe what you wish~!To me, it is religiously sound, to a health professional they might disagree and say it makes us happy & healthy. Opinions and views are so many. What is wrong to me might be right to you.

Most Helpful|2003 Subaru Legacy Wagon L AWD 4dr Wagon (2.5L 4cyl 5M)
Liked it alot when I bought it -but won't do this model again. Many people I know LOVE their Subaru- but, IMHO- it's too much $$ for the bang. Our plan was to buy a new car that we can drive for many years. It's cramped when 4 in the car- and worse if an avg size dog comes with us. Exterior paint stinks-chips easily. Too many blind spots to find during test-drive. (I didn't read the articles for testing- beforehand.) Thought gas would be better- 19-21 is best mileage yet.Don't fall for the brouha-ha... I'm going with Honda or Toyota for my next car- asap.
We upgraded to leather seats. Love the dual roofs.
Better the gas mileage; improve the pick up; loose the blind spots.
2003 Subaru Legacy Wagon L AWD 4dr Wagon (2.5L 4cyl 5M)
Bought this car new in 2003 because of manual transmission,wagon&4wheel disc. Until 2006 this was a reasonable car for my wife to drive for errands and commute. 2006 brought out the true character, noticed the clutch slipping at 48K. Had moved, took it to a dealer in new location, need 3 part clutch and brakes, calipers and rotors for ~$4.2K. Brakes had never "chirped", pass. front rotor very thin. Subaru after much back and forth did the parts but not the labor ($2.4K) at 48,000 miles. Fast forward to 2011, front brakes rotors and calipers @ 8 K mi., and today at 88K same for rears + fluid flush because of heat damage. Called Subaru today, thanked for report. Will NOT buy Subaru again
Quality and durability is poor. I would rank it below that of British Leyland (Triumph) of the 1970s. Costs of repair need to be improved. 60K suggested maintainence was in excess of $800. Buckets need more support, 500 miles in a day is hard on the back.

DNA iPhone 4 Case
It's sickening how many iPhone cases there are on the market. You can choose from the cheap to the ultra expensive. Take for example Case-mate's Titantium Premium case. It costs a whopping $300. Hardly worth the price based on the materials alone, but since it's produced in limited quantities it's a supply and demand scenario, though that's Case-mate's fabrication. But despite the over inflated price, the idea of a feather weight case has its attractive qualities. So what's one to do?
The DNA Case weighs less than 1oz (25g) and will cost just $50 when it goes into production. It's currently a Kickstarter.com project, but they've already doubled their goal of $5k, so it's pretty much a guarantee that it will go into production.
Much like Colorware's iPad Grip Case you'll need to use a screw driver to install it – extra screws and screwdriver included. And for the record it's not a case. In fact it's a bumper that protects the edges of the iPhone 4. What you can't see is integrated rubber bumpers that should protect if from dings and drops. All of the ports remain accessible.
No word on an official launch date, but we're assuming September since they've already achieved their funding goal. You'll be able to choose from a black, white, aluminum (pictured), and limited edition chrome finish, though the latter will be slightly more heavy.

I just bougt a 1993 GMC Yukon with a 5.7 L engine. Had one week alternator went out, replaced , ran for 2 days then acted like it was running out of gas, got gas then just stalled out.. it now starts and idles for about 4 minutes then dies.. does the same thing , replaced fuel filter and no difference.. Please give me suggestions on what could be wrong.. Thank you
Test fuel pressure, is there any other checks you have done? Cap and rotor, plugs, wires, ignition module...what happens when you try and idle it up or drive it? need more info.
We don't have any tools to test anything... we put our whole tax return in this thing and now we are BROKE... ugh! so anyways when I try to rev it and keep it at about 1200 Rpms it seems ok maybe it cuts out a little bit , but dosn't stall.. if I put it in drive it dies immediently... is there anything I could check without needing special tools? thank you so much for your time.. Darbie

Implementing a 48 h EWTD-compliant rota for junior doctors in the UK does not compromise patients' safety : assessor-blind pilot comparison
Cappuccio, Francesco P., Bakewell, A., Taggart, Frances M, Ward, G., Ji, Chen, Sullivan, J.P., Edmunds, M., Pounder, R., Landrigan, C.P., Lockley, S.W. and Peile, Ed. (2009) Implementing a 48 h EWTD-compliant rota for junior doctors in the UK does not compromise patients' safety : assessor-blind pilot comparison. QJM, Vol.102 (No.4). pp. 271-282. ISSN 1460-2725

Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/qjmed/hcp004
Background: There are currently no field data about the effect of implementing European Working Time Directive (EWTD)-compliant rotas in a medical setting. Surveys of doctors' subjective opinions on shift work have not provided reliable objective data with which to evaluate its efficacy.
Aim: We therefore studied the effects on patient's safety and doctors' work-sleep patterns of implementing an EWTD-compliant 48 h work week in a single-blind intervention study carried out over a 12-week period at the University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust. We hypothesized that medical error rates would be reduced following the new rota.
Methods: Nineteen junior doctors, nine studied while working an intervention schedule of <48 h per week and 10 studied while working traditional weeks of <56 h scheduled hours in medical wards. Work hours and sleep duration were recorded daily. Rate of medical errors (per 1000 patient-days), identified using an established active surveillance methodology, were compared for the Intervention and Traditional wards. Two senior physicians blinded to rota independently rated all suspected errors.
Results: Average scheduled work hours were significantly lower on the intervention schedule [43.2 (SD 7.7) (range 26.0–60.0) vs. 52.4 (11.2) (30.0–77.0) h/week; P < 0.001], and there was a non-significant trend for increased total sleep time per day [7.26 (0.36) vs. 6.75 (0.40) h; P = 0.095]. During a total of 4782 patient-days involving 481 admissions, 32.7% fewer total medical errors occurred during the intervention than during the traditional rota (27.6 vs. 41.0 per 1000 patient-days, P = 0.006), including 82.6% fewer intercepted potential adverse events (1.2 vs. 6.9 per 1000 patient-days, P = 0.002) and 31.4% fewer non-intercepted potential adverse events (16.6 vs. 24.2 per 1000 patient-days, P = 0.067). Doctors reported worse educational opportunities on the intervention rota.
Conclusions: Whilst concerns remain regarding reduced educational opportunities, our study supports the hypothesis that a 48 h work week coupled with targeted efforts to improve sleep hygiene improves patient safety.

Formed in 2004, the band's breakthrough debut Robbers & Cowards was released to considerable acclaim in 2006. The darker Loyalty To Loyalty followed two years later, and 2011's Mine Is Yours introduced deeper anthemic qualities to the eclectic group's catalog. Dear Miss Lonelyhearts, which features the rollicking, energetic single "Miracle Mile," is Cold War Kids' first release with former Modest Mouse and Murder City Devils guitarist Dann Gallucci, who also handled its production alongside Lars Stalfors.

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Anyway can you please help me out with the following? 240V , 50 Hz electrical appliance is rated at 2 kW. It has a lagging power factor of 0.7 (a) What is appliances power factor when it is used on a 60Hz supply. (b) What is supply voltage required to maintain appliance at its rated power when operated off a 60 Hz supply? 2. The attempt at a solution No idea..! Can you suggest some relevant equations and guidance? Thanks in advance
First find Z of the load using the relation P=V^2/Z. Then using the given power factor you can find the reactance X=Zsin(theta). Let this be X1. Now find new X (X2) for 60 Hz. Remember X is directly proportional to frequency for a lagging circuit since it is inductive. From X2 you can calculate the parameters you want to know.
You are asked to find pf on 60 Hz. You may remember that the impedance of the load Z=R+jX, where X is positive for inductive loads i.e., lagging pf and only X is dependent on frequency. Also pf=tan(X/R). Now if you change frequency of supply X changes proportionately. You know X=2*pi*f*L for inductive load. So for change in frequency from f1=50Hz to f2=60Hz , we have X2/X1=f2/f1. The first thing you have to do is find X1 i.e., X at 50 Hz using relations I mentioned earlier (Note pf=cos(theta) and so you can find theta). Then find X2 and from this since R is unchanged, you can find new pf.

Local artist surprises with lace portraits
Behind this big, burly man with a gruff beard lies a gentle soul with a knack for crocheting beautiful pieces of art.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Donovan Hannis has done plenty of different and interesting things in his life before finding his way to Alice Springs.
He was the Mayor of his home town in America, has worked in a Japanese factory, edited a newspaper and done time as a computer database manager.
But it's crochet and craft making that really sparks his interest and for the first time his work is featured in a major solo exhibition.
A tall man with a bushy beard, Donovan says people are often surprised when they hear about his work.
"Especially when I [crochet] somewhere in public..." he says.
"But I'm a big bloke and when you're as tall as I am and as big as I am, with the bushy beard, you don't really care much what people think whether your crocheting or not so it's alright!"
This exhibition features portraits of people Donovan has met on his travels and many of the pieces have been packed away in boxes for years.
"The big doilies, the big pieces, they started when I was in Japan so it's been maybe nine years that I've been doing those," he says.
Growing up in an Illinois Church, Donovan was first drawn to crochet when he spotted a big table cloth depicting the last supper, but it wasn't until he was older that he really took it up as a hobby.
"It's very relaxing, it's hard for me to just sit and not be accomplishing something, and this helps me to relax. So I can sit and watch TV and not feel like I'm wasting my time.
"When I picked up crochet years ago I had just stopped smoking, and I needed something to do with my fingers and this was the trick so 12 years and we're still good," he says.
An artist as well as a craftsman, Donovan is a perfectionist.
"I always think after someone picks up crochet they finish their first project they should just rip it all out so that they know that it is not the end of the world if you have to take out two or three lines to get that extra stitch back in."
The exhibition will be on display at Central Craft in Alice Springs until the 28th of April.

At least 30 Egyptian tanks were massed along the Gaza-Sinai border on Monday afternoon, a Turkish news agency reported.
According to the report in Anatolia, cited by Ynet, it is the "first time in years" that the Egyptian army has deployed tanks in the region. Under the Israel-Egypt peace treaty, Egypt is obligated to coordinate movement of heavy military vehicles and weapons in the Sinai with Israel.
Egypt is in a state of high-alert due to massive, countrywide protests against the rule of President Mohammed Morsi, which have seen millions take to the streets. Since the latest round of protests began on Sunday, at least 16 people have died and hundreds have been wounded.

Our family of 4 (parents and 2 college students) stayed in this unit for Spring break (March 17-22).
This was by far one of our best beach trips.
First let me say that the agency with which we booked the condo "Five Star Living & Concierge Service" their staff was really nice and very helpful with the reservation and later on answering my question. I will definitely use them again for our next trip to Florida.
We did our extensive initial research looking for a place to stay in Destin. I'm so happy we picked up Silver Shells Beach Resort, they even exceeded our expectations. Location was perfect: 100 yards from the beach, across the street is WalMart (grocery shopping), 2 miles down the road is Harborwalk with all the shops and restaurants. The pool was exactly like the pictures on the web – very clean, quite large and plenty of lounge chairs. Tennis courts were in perfect condition. Our son used the gym few times and he was very pleased with it.
The condo: very good quality, extremely clean, good view, nice furniture. Master bath is huge almost the size of a normal guest room. The balcony is big and well furnished – we used it for our breakfast several times. The entry to the condo is with keycard like in hotels. There is parking garage under the building and our unit's parking space was very close to the entrance. Elevators are going down to the garage and there are many baggage carts, so no worries about carrying luggage or grocery.
The beach: simply fantastic! If I have to describe it – it has the water of the Caribbean Sea and the sand of a desert. Our kids took a Parasailing – great experience.
We are coming back again, it is a great place!!

Spacefaring EU flag returns home
Mr Fredrik Reinfeldt, the Prime Minister of Sweden, which currently holds the presidency of the EU, was on Monday presented with a European flag that travelled 9 262 217 km in space aboard the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station.
When Swedish ESA astronaut Christer Fuglesang was launched into space on the Space Shuttle Discovery on 28 August, the crew carried a special item: an EU flag with the famous circle of golden stars on a blue background, representing solidarity and harmony between the peoples of Europe.
This flag was seen on the TV images sent from the ISS and is in the background of many of the photographs taken during Fuglesang's mission. Having travelled 217 times around the globe, the flag returned to Earth with the STS-128 crew and is now back in Europe.
The flag was handed over to Mr Reinfeldt at a ceremony in the Rosenbad government palace in Stockholm on Monday afternoon in the presence of ESA Director General Jean-Jacques Dordain.
"The ISS is a fantastic technological endeavour, which now will be utilised to its full potential for some 10 years," said Mr Dordain at the ceremony. "However its most important feature is the international partnership, which has shaped, and which will be the foundation for, future space exploration."
Discovery also carried into space the Multipurpose Logistics Module, containing a number of microgravity experiments, as the primary payload. During the mission, the crew made three spacewalks, during which Fuglesang replaced a materials processing experiment outside ESA's Columbus module and returned an empty ammonia tank assembly to the Shuttle payload bay.
STS-128 crewmembers, NASA astronauts Patrick Forrester, Kevin Ford, John Olivas and Jose Hernandez, have been travelling with Christer Fuglesang in Sweden since last Friday on the post-flight tour. This tour is an important activity after each spaceflight for communicating results with professionals, decision-makers and the general public, transferring impressions and meeting people who have been involved with the mission.
The crew returned to Houston on Tuesday after visiting industrial partner in the city of Linköping in Sweden and giving a lecture at the European Astronaut Centre in Cologne, Germany.

Long-awaited results from Long Island study. (Cancer).
Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs; combustion by-products) raises women's risk of breast cancer by only a statistically insignificant amount, whereas exposure to several organochlorine chemicals has no link to breast cancer, according to two long-awaited papers published in the August 2002 issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention. The papers report results of the two primary hypotheses of the Long Island Breast Cancer Study Project (LIBCSP), a population-based study conducted in New York's Nassau and Suffolk Counties among more than 3,000 women.The study is unusual in having been mandated by Congress after women's activist groups such as the Baldwin, New York-based 1 in 9: The Long Island Breast Cancer Action Coalition pressured local politicians for an investigation into why area rates of breast cancer were going up. In 1993, Congress passed a bill for the National Cancer Institute to study the possible environmental causes of breast cancer on Long Island.
The first paper reports on PAH-DNA adducts (chemicals attached to the genetic material) as a measure of exposure among 646 breast cancer patients and 429 controls, and found no evidence of a dose-response relationship, nor of any association with the main sources of PAHs, cigarettes and grilled and smoked foods. Principal investigator Marilie D. Gammon, an epidemiologist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, says these results may be due to a threshold effect, or that the relationship between PAHs and breast cancer may not be causal. Breast cancer, however, correlated strongly with nonenvironmental factors such as age, alcohol consumption, number of pregnancies, and weight.
The second paper reports on blood serum levels of several organochlorine compounds among the same group of women. No dose-response relations were apparent, nor was organochlorine-related risk noted among women with several other breast cancer risk factors.
The results disappointed the activists whose lobbying spawned the LIBCSP. Many believe the studys should have looked at currently used pesticides rather than the long-banned organochlorines. Ruth Allen, former program director for the LIBCSP at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and now an agency environmental epidemiologist, says the study's focus was logical at the time it was funded (1993) because a series of papers had implicated organochlorines in excess breast cancers in New York State.
Many media outlets have taken the results as evidence that pollutants contribute little to the Long Island breast cancer rate, which is only slightly above the national average of 114.3 cases per 100,000 women. Allen counters, "It's an epidemic any way you look at it." The rate of breast cancer incidence on Long Island and in many other communities throughout the Northeast has doubled over the past 50 years.
It is premature to absolve pollutants of blame, says Allen; negative results on a few chemicals do not constitute a not-guilty verdict. Three million people live above the aquifers that supply Long Island's drinking water, and, she says, "whatever they put in the soil goes right into the groundwater." Seventy-eight air strippers run continuously to strip volatile organics from the water supply aquifer as a precautionary step to reduce human exposure to chemical residue from past polluting activities.
The studies themselves are first steps--not final results--in the effort to pinpoint causes of breast cancer. An earlier study published in the March 2000 issue of the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology implicated organochlorine pesticides, especially dieldrin, in breast cancer. Gammon plans to test for this association among the Long Island cohort. Women with defective detoxifying genes may be highly susceptible to breast cancer, and the Long Island researchers are investigating this and other possibilities.
Geri Barish, president of 1 in 9, says a geographical information system would enable the correlation of cancer prevalence with exposure to pesticides and other pollutants as documented by various agencies. The National Cancer Institute developed such a system specifically for this study to integrate air pollution, water pollution, hazardous and municipal wastes, electromagnetic fields, and other factors into the study. The system will soon be available for further studies of cancers on Long Island.

2001 explained
There are thousands of interpretations of the meanings within 2001: A Space Odyssey. This might be the best of the bunch.
in the bleachers
Like a lot of newspapers of late, the Los Angeles Times has had to deal with layoffs and shrinking page counts. The sports section is a shell of its former self, but, miraculously, In the Bleachers, the one-panel cartoon from Steve Moore, is still there. (It's buried in the back, next to the minor-league baseball standings and the gambling column.) It's very much in the oddball vein of The Far Side, which debuted six years before it, but while no one would describe the strip as hip or edgy, it makes me laugh on an almost-daily basis.

beyond the call
Beyond the Call is a well-meaning documentary about three unpretentious Good Samaritans who are worth admiring. Too bad the film about them isn't.

who you calling bald?
Like the rest of us, rock stars have to worry about losing their hair. Well, not all of them: Some do just fine without their lovely locks.
the sword
The Austin metal band is back with a new album, Gods of the Earth. Some people think they're joking with their Norse imagery and Sabbath-size riffs. They're not joking, folks -- they're here to rock.

the return of harold and kumar
Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle was a fun surprise that did decent business, so of course a sequel was inevitable. Sadly, Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay is less funny and a whole lot cruder.

street kings: keanu reeves tries to walk like a man
Street Kings, which opens Friday, is a perfectly competent thriller, but it's the sort that perpetuates all the tired cliches about bad cops, codes of honor and this-is-a-man's-world bravado. My review appears in The Village Voice.

george clooney has a ball in leatherheads
Leatherheads has its faults, but for the most part, it's a stylish, smart period comedy. Elsewhere in my Consumables column, I take a listen to the new Death Cab single and Cadence Weapon album, and sing the praises of The Bank Job and Paranoid Park.

this is my first grow. im using bag seeds. the plants are just over 2 weeks old. i give them a splash of distilled water every day. i also mist the leaves with distilled water every other day. i have a house fan blowing in their direction 6 feet from them. i have a 400 w MH lamp 18/6. they have always had droopy leaves, they kind of look like the mcdonalds arches. yesterday, two plants started developing yellowish brown spots on the first set of leaves. i was originally growing them in 3 inch terra cotta pots with "miracle" grow potting soil with nutrietns already added. yesterday, as i saw the problem, i picked up some nursery soil with only peat and perlite added. no nutrients. i also picked up some fish emulsion (5-1-1) and some superTHRIVE. I have transplanted them from the miracle grow into the new soil, and also switched to the larger container. when i transplanted them, i noticed the root ball was really nice and full already. im curious about what could be wrong. here are some pictures. Thanks for any help you guys can get me.
Add some peroxide to your water to get some oxygen to those roots. Cant see the pic...it was just a X but it may be my computer. Also, Ive read epsom salt works, but def ref all that to get the exact directions. I dont go by measurements I just do however much I wanna add...lazy sometimes I guess...but havent killed a plant yet.
hey XX... You only need to water your plants every 3-10 days once they get a good root system.. WHEN you water. water thoroughly and then let the soil dry.. STOP SPRAYING your plants.. spraying is totally unnecessary... pictures? iloveyou In the future, mix 20-50% perlite in your soil.. this makes it ALMOST impossible to over water
thanks for the advice! it makes sense that the spots only appear on the plants that have droopy leaves. i hear its common for a first timer to overwater.. im gonna let them mellow out for a few days and see if they straighten up.
Listen to Garden Knowm, he/she's right on the money. No, those leaves won't recover, so keep an eye on the newest growth, to indicate recovery.
