Record of Decision [PDF 13.6 M, 329 pp]
Proposed Plan [PDF 4.9 M, 37 pp]
EPA added the Cidra Groundwater Contamination Site in Cidra, Puerto Rico to the Superfund National Priorities List on July 22, 2004 because potentially harmful chemicals were found in the ground water. The superfund site consists of portions of the commercial district of the Cidra Municipality and includes the Cidra Industrial Park to the southeast. Approximately 874 people were served before the four contaminated wells were closed. There are 15 active drinking water wells located within four miles of the site, serving a total population of 8,838 people. The Cidra Groundwater Contamination site consists of a ground water plume with no identified sources of contamination of volatile organics compounds (VOCs). The Puerto Rico Department of Health (PRDOH) ordered four public supply wells operated by the Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority (PRASA) to be closed. Samples taken from on-site wells proved that they were contaminated with VOCs.
In June 2002, EPA collected ground water samples from the closed municipal supply wells and 20 other active and inactive wells in Cidra. Investigations were made from various industrial sites as potential sources of contamination for the ground water plume. In June 2003 and early 2004, EPA conducted an Expanded Site Inspection to determine the magnitude and extent of contamination and to identify potential responsible parties. An investigation to determine the magnitude and extent of the contamination and to identify the source of the contamination was initiated in 2007.

I have said this before: Ellie LOVES to shop. Whether it's at the grocery store, the mall, catalog shopping, or online, the girl has an opinion about everything. Most recently, she has gone Christmas shopping with me and has become quite the savvy shopper… "Mom, check and see if this one's on sale!"
Last week, she was blessed to receive a gift card in the mail & oh, baby… it was burning a hole right through her Cabbage Patch Kid pocket book. So, in the midst of all the Christmas shopping madness, I took her to Toys 'R Us to spend her gift. Not all products made for kids are something that I'd like to have in my house & many {too many} are not made well. It's a terrible feeling to see a toy fall apart in a couple of days when you know how hard your child worked to save their money to earn it. As we looked at toys, we noted the quality and mommy's approval rating. It was a fun shopping trip BUT exhausting.
Insert Virtual Piggy™ — the first online shopping experience for families designed to empower children to make smart purchases, while allowing the parents to maintain control. Parents can sign up for an account, manage the controls, approve purchases, & let their kids check out with their secure Virtual Piggy™account. Parents maintain control by setting monthly allowance amounts, savings targets and charity goals. Plus, you're able to set transaction limits, restrict the merchants where your children can shop, & have the option to require approval on EVERY purchase your child makes.
If you've ever found yourself saying over & over to your kids to "put it on your wishlist", one awesome feature of Virtual Piggy™ is the ability for your kids to create a wishlist within their dashboard. In that same dashboard, they can track their finances, too — that's certainly motivation to keep saving. {I don't know about you, but I'm willing to pay a little bit to get some *extra* help around the house.}
Ready to check out Virtual Piggy™ for yourself? When you do, be sure to check out these MVP savings from special merchants just for checking out with Virtual Piggy™! With the Member Value Program, your child can save money off their purchases with the merchant codes listed on the page. The codes listed are good until January 15, 2013.

My Scope of Practice: Educator, Entrepreneur
The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled. — Plutarch
"Wound and ostomy professionals are a special breed," says Nancy Morgan, RN, BSN, MBA, WOCN, WCC, DWC. "They are amazingly talented and caring. If an individual shares that passion and has a little rush every time he/she sees a patient with a wound or ostomy, it affirms the calling." Undoubtedly, Nancy has experienced that rush when caring for a patient with a wound or ostomy. But it's the rush she gets when teaching a colleague something new about wound care that helped her realize her calling as an educator. As one of the founders of the Wound Care Education Institute (WCEI), Nancy puts her wound care knowledge, nursing skills, and entrepreneurial spirit to the test every day.
Nancy was 18 years old, working as a home health-certified nursing assistant, when she encountered a patient with a large wound on the sacrum. "I never saw anything like that on a human being," she says. "I was horrified that a person could have something like this." She paid special attention to how the home health nurse treated the patient and was amazed when the wound slowly began to heal. "I saw first-hand the special care it took, not only to treat the wound, but also to take care of the whole patient," she says. After that experience, it was just a matter of time before Nancy became a CWOCN and started caring for wounds full time. She earned her BSN from Lewis University (Romeoville, IL) in 1993, began working at Marianjoy Hospital (Wheaton, IL), and shortly after she became wound-certified.
After completing her certification, Nancy became a clinical consultant at Hill-Rom. In this capacity, Nancy and her colleague, Donna Sardina, RN, MHA, WCC, DWC, noticed a critical need for additional wound care experts to care for patients. Eager to fill the void, Nancy and Donna founded Wound Consultants, Inc, a hands-on wound care consulting company. Nancy and Donna were unable to handle the huge number of requests they received to provide consultations. It became clear that what patients needed were more trained wound care professionals. Creating an organization that would provide wound care education to healthcare professionals was a logical step in that direction. The demand for services, including education among healthcare professionals, was high. The result was the creation of the Wound Care Education Institute®.
"We developed a comprehensive course in skin and wound management, focusing on the bedside practitioner's need for knowledge that can be immediately used to improve wound care outcomes for their patients," Nancy says of the WCEI programs. "We made a commitment to multidisciplinary education early on because wound prevention and treatment often comes from the combined efforts of many disciplines." Nancy spread the word about the WCEI through social media marketing and by attending professional conferences.
Because the Institute appreciated the importance of certification to the credibility of the course and value to the student, WCEI worked with the National Alliance of Wound Care® (NAWC) to develop the certification process.
"For 10 years, the WCEI has provided wound care certification information," Nancy says. "Because of our reputation, expertise, and delivery model, our certification partner, NAWC, has chosen our group for education associated with their other specialized wound care certifications in Diabetic Wound Care (DWC)® and Lower Extremity Lymphedema Management (LLE)SM. We are working closely with NAWC to identify additional opportunities to meet the growing demand for education on wound and ostomy care."
With wound care education constantly evolving and the success of the WCEI continuing to grow, Nancy spends most of her time striving to stay on top of what clinicians need to know in order to deliver the best care to patients. This involves keeping up-to-date on new product technology, reimbursement issues, and research.
Helping patients has always been a priority for Nancy, and the desire to help as many as possible has fueled her entrepreneurship. As a nurse from a small town in the Midwest, Nancy was only able to help a small number of patients in her region, but with the creation of the WCEI, her reach is literally endless. "It is incredibly rewarding to know we are teaching thousands of clinicians, who then go back and make a difference in the lives of their patients," Nancy says. She urges those she educates to take a collaborative approach to wound and ostomy management and to always keep the patient perspective in mind. "I see myself as working to make it easier for bedside clinicians to shine, feel proud of who they are, and exceed wound care goals in their practice settings," Nancy says.
To wound, ostomy, continence nurses, Nancy says, "Follow your dream and get involved in the lives of your patients with challenging conditions. They will inspire you to obtain the needed education and training to grow in this field and make a much needed difference."
Patients aren't the only ones who inspire healthcare professionals to advance their wound care knowledge. People like Nancy continue to kindle the spark that encourages many clinicians to get the education they need to advance their scope of practice.

Its back, and with Michel Roux Jnr to boot!
I have very fond memories of watching this program as a kid with my parents and was very happy to see it return and even happier to see M. Roux Jr presenting.
I missed last weeks but have smiled my way through this weeks with Mary Berry - what a lovely program! This week we saw madelaines and creme patissiere tarts for an afternoon tea with Prosecco and English sparkling wine (and tea!), pieces on real bread and french patisserie and Michel making an apple tart.
And baking marge won a blind taste test over butter with a victoria sponge.
Welcome back.
Anyone else enjoying this?
Long may it continue.

Not doubt it will be criticized for being retro and basic, but it is nice to have a food show that is about the food rather than about the presenter.
Posted 12 February 2013 - 03:24 AM
Although it seems to lean heavily towards the participation of the celebs of the industry.
that is about the food rather than about the presenter.
I have two other negative comparisions with the older format. Firstly, it is no longer a topical show - surely you would have expected some mention of horsemeat. And, in Jilly Goolden's day, she would have been telling you exactly what wine she was suggesting, where you could buy it and how much.

The piece about how wonderful things were in France was somewhat annoying. No, not everyone in France buys the finest, local artisan produce daily. But equally, if you do want good bread that will last past the morning then you don't buy a Baguette - there are plenty of other french breads that will last, and Michel Roux presumably knows that.

WEBBER TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WZZM) -- 60 volunteers, including Grand Valley State University football players and coaches are in Lake County searching for former quarterback, Cullen Finnerty.
GVSU football coach Matt Mitchell says former coach and current Notre Dame offensive coordinator Chuck Martin is among those in Lake County.
Finnerty was last seen fishing Sunday evening on the Baldwin River, northeast of Baldwin. His family owns a cabin near Bray Lake.
Police say Finnerty called his wife and in-laws to come and pick him up and he sounded scared. When they got there they found his small pontoon boat, but he was gone.
Lake County Sheriff Robert Hilts told the Ludington Daily News Finnerty had a "nervous episode" and ran into the woods.
Finnerty was the quarterback of the Grand Valley State Lakers, leading the team to three national championships in 2003, 2005, and 2006.
The Lake County Sheriff's Department says volunteer searchers, as well as crews from the Michigan State Police and area fire departments are assisting in a systematic and methodical search for Finnerty. The search is centered around section #25 of Webber Township.
The Lake County Sheriff's Department has also used search dogs and an aerial unit. Authorities say no more volunteers are needed and all current volunteers should not search for Finnerty on their own.
A bus full of GVSU football players and coaches pulled out of Allendale this morning, bound for Baldwin. Coach Mitchell told reporters Finnerty was more than a championship quarterback - he was "a great teammate - a very loyal person to the people in the locker room - he had a tremendous number of great friendships.. I think that's another reason why so many people are coming to his aid because of those relationships that were formed during the years when he was here as a player."

Losing Downward Dog. ~ Ashley Carpenter
It was probably a year before I was forced to re-think what I was doing. Work left me aching. My body was slowly declining into something I can only describe as a dark place. And for someone who had discovered what light could do, I was fighting it with everything I possibly could. Denial of being able to fix things or change the way you do things would only make it worse. The physicality of my job left me broken to a point that a gentle yoga class no longer suited me. I went from attempting intermediate classes I absolutely adored, to taking steps back trying to find a comfortable place. Even restorative left me in a place that I knew my body just couldn't handle. When nerves are affected things get scary, emotional and my yoga home seemed so far away.
Reluctantly, I found the yoga I had been taught during training that allowed me to work through things no matter how hard they got. While I waited for a treatment that was suppose to relieve some pain, I soaked in baths, meditated on candlelight, and took deep breaths. The hardest part of everything was not being able to take a class when I was overwhelmed and anxious. Trying to find that peaceful place when the only Om you have is your own. Somehow it should be easier to find peace when suddenly you have more than enough time on your hands to do it. But the lack of activity and not being able to do so much made it increasingly difficult. There were definitely moments of great thoughts and positive thinking.
But when the pain struck I often felt helpless.
The fact was that not only was my yoga taken away due to injury but so was this career, that whether fantastic or not, I was facing not being able to continue. Even if these treatments get me back to one hundred percent, there was still a big chance that if I had one rough day at work, in extreme situation (which is quite often in my job) that it would lead me right back to where I am today. Pain, Pain, Pain. For so many thoughts in my head all I can do is write it out, breathe deep, and hope that the answers will find me and I them.
Yoga gave me something that I cannot lose no matter how harsh the circumstance and that is faith, yoga at its simplest form made me understand that I am here and it such a beautiful day.

Did Nicole mention safety signals in her book at all? I remember reading in Karen Overall's book or perhaps it was one of her papers a reference to a study where a safety signal was used to tell a dog their owner was coming home any moment. Apparently the success rate was up around 80%, which as far as I know beats the pants off every other method. I'm very interested in safety signals. I taught my hare a safety signal that has been very helpful in training him. He will actually pause when I use it when he's in a state provided he's not running blindly, and if he's indecisive and looks like he might move away from me, I can use it to turn the tide in my favour and he will usually stay put for long enough to calm down enough to change his mind about running away. I've been thinking about how it might be useful with my young Vallhund, who sometimes gets spooked by things like someone making a loud noise in another part of the house, or strange people that come around and bustle about in his house and don't ever say a word to him. His response to being spooked is to bark a lot and get all tense ready to do something. I have been thinking, if I could just tell him at that point that he's safe, maybe I can deal with these things well before I have to start counter-conditioning.

ARMSTRONG, JAMES (ca. 1811–1879). James Armstrong, politician, was born in Kentucky about 1811. He came to Texas shortly before the Texas Revolution and joined Capt. James Chessher's company of Jasper Volunteers on March 3, 1836. He was discharged on July 26 of that year. Armstrong was elected to represent Jasper County at the Fourth Congress of the Republic of Texas in 1839–40. He subsequently was district attorney for Jasper in 1840–41 and served as president of the board of land commissioners of Jasper County before moving to Beaumont. Jefferson County voters elected him to serve in the House during the Ninth Congress (1844–45) and in the Convention of 1845. After annexation he was elected to the House of the Second Legislature from Jefferson County. Armstrong moved in 1848 to Williamson County, where he became an attorney and a rancher. He subsequently returned to public life and served in the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Texas legislatures as the senator from his home district, which included Williamson County. By 1860 he owned three slaves and had a total estate of some $6,000. He had at least five children. He returned to Beaumont about 1868.

Front end grinding - ONLY while coasting in 4x4 high
Hey guys,
It's been snowing on and off here in WI lately. I had to use 4x4 high twice in the last week on the highway; speeds around 30-40 mph. I noticed that when I would let off the accelerator, I would get a grinding noise (metal on metal whir) in the front end while coasting. Press the accelerator, noise goes away. It is less pronounced at lower speeds...so I just get passed the crappy parts on my drive, then switch to 2wd and white knuckle it slowly. (would rather do that then wreck something in the drive train)
I did a bit of interweb searching, but couldn't find much. A lot of "it's brakes", "it's u-joints", "it's CV boots" with no solutions....but it only happens in 4x4 high, while coasting. So those responses don't make sense to me. I have been driving with my hubs locked for 2 months now, no noise in 2wd with them locked.
What do you guys suppose? Could it be pinion bearings? How would I check those? (no experience there)
I'm thinking, I'll change my front differential fluid and strain for filings. I have search for a specific 6.4L tutorial, to no avail. Any of you guys do this before? Got pics or suggestions on the procedure?
sounds like a bad carrier bearing..
this is not our differential, but everything else is consistent... D represents the carrier bearing cap, and E represents the shims:
those bearings, while loaded with torque, tend to align properly.. when coasting, they tend to wallow.. wallow enough, and they wear- allowing more room to wallow, hence the bearing needs to be replaced.. wallow it enough to release a shim, the shim is now free floating around in the differential- which brings the expression "monkey wrench in the gears" to mind..
differentials are $$expensive$$ to replace, or work on.. I'd rec you open it up most ricky-tick and figure out what the issue is..
edited to add: here is a good start on servicing/rebuilding a differential... http://www.pirate4x4.com/tech/billavista/Gear_Setup/ ... note: hopefully you'll catch it quick enough that a full rebuild isn't required.. the thought of rebuilding one gives me instant heepeejeepees and doing it will cause lasting nightmares. seriously... that job sucks..

I don't see the diagram in the post? But, I figure it's from that link.
I've never worked on one of these before. Would I be able to tell by just checking the "wobble" like a normal bearing? Currently everything in 4x4 high works fine. But I don't want to use it because of the noise and possible more damage.
Is there a way to tell what axle is in my truck? Are they all Dana 60s? I like doing things myself, because then I know they are done right (I can't seem to find a good, honest mechanic around here). I know enough about working on vehicles that I know when people are blowing smoke or don't fix things properly....so I just do it myself most times. This seems to be a bit over my head right now, but I would still like to do it if it's not terrible.
I will do some research while a await some responses.

Despite efforts by administration and staff to reduce costs and save money at the Wayne County Nursing Home, the Board of Supervisors are seeking professional help to market and possibly sell the facility.
Despite efforts by administration and staff to reduce costs and save money at the Wayne County Nursing Home, the Board of Supervisors are seeking professional help to market and possibly sell the facility.
At their last meeting, the board approved a resolution "to prepare a Request for Qualifications for professional assistance in marketing and selling the Wayne County Nursing Home." Not all supervisors were in agreement with resolution. Arcadia Supervisor Dick Colacino said Nursing Home Administrator Margaret Haroff was tasked with finding ways to cut costs at the facility — something she is still working on. Colacino felt the resolution was premature.
"I want to give them a chance first," he said. "The administrator does a real good job. They deserve a chance."
The county has been subsidizing the nursing home for some time now and anticipates providing $1,522,084 from the general fund to assist the facility for 2013, as well as requiring an estimated $2.9 million in intergovernmental transfer funds (IGT). Without this intergovernmental funding, the county's subsidy would grow an additional $1.45 million in 2013 for a total allocation of $2,972,084.
Haroff and Nursing Home Comptroller Judith Seier presented an update of the nursing home's financial condition, noting that originally county subsidies were necessary for regular operation of the nursing home, but were decreased when revenues increased. However, with reductions in Medicare and Medicaid allocations from the state, county support is becoming a necessity to keep the facility running. Colacino said reimbursement from the state is often not enough and can take up to a year to receive.
Haroff has been working to reduce county financial support by instituting efforts to reduce operational costs, including the creation of short term rehabilitation beds, saving on energy costs, streamlining the purchasing and prescription ordering systems and decreasing contractual expenses. Haroff told the board the nursing home is now bidding to outsource food, manitenance and cleaning services, all while they have vastly improved quality and cost efficiency for operating the facility by taking part in the Lean Six Sigma Program, a methodology which seeks to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the causes of errors and minimizing variability in manufacturing and business processes. According to Haroff, the highest operation cost at the facility is personnel, which can only be changed through contract negotiations. She has also looked into revenue enhancements with adjusting the billable days of care.
The board is concerned about the long-term availability of IGT funding as well as long-term impacts of the level of revenues for the nursing home. Although the board recognizes the importance of the staff continuing to work toward bridging the gap between revenues and expenditures, supervisors also expressed the need of the county to explore all their options, including selling the facility.
Colacino noted that the board has not voted to sell the facility at this time, only to explore the possibility.
Page 2 of 2 - Opposing the resolution to look into selling the nursing home with a no vote were Colacino, Butler Supervisor Dave Spickerman, Galen Supervisor Steve Groat, Huron Supervisor Laurie Crane, Lyons Supervisor Brian Manktelow, Rose Supervisor Kenan Baldridge and Savannah Supervisor Michael Kolczynski.

Peter asks:
Previously the only teeth I had extracted were my wisdom teeth. However, my #18 molar's root canal failed and it was infected. This week my molar was extracted and human bone graft material was inserted. The plan is to get an implant. I am 58 years old. My question is, do I have to replace this molar? What would happen if I don't get a dental implant and I just leave it alone once healed?
Dear Peter:
Your mandibular second molar (#18) is the last molar on your lower jaw, and you can function just fine without it.
I can tell you that replacing it with a dental implant would prevent the upper molar from erupting down into the space left by the missing molar. Also, the bone slowly disappears after an extraction and an implant would prevent this from happening.
But, basically it is a decision that you need to make. How important is it to you to replace that missing molar?
As a dentist, the ideal solution is the implant, but it is up to you to determine (with the advice of your dentist) what is best for you.
Good luck.
Carlos Boudet, DDS, DICOI

Releases @ TCC
Out of Nowhere – a poem that connects "adult orphans"
HAMPTON ROADS, Va. – (Aug. 25, 2008) – Tidewater Community College writing instructor Mary L. Martin will receive her first "royalty" this fall with publication of one of her poems in a juried anthology of poetry and short stories.
"Out of Nowhere" will appear in The Poet's Domain, Vol. 24, published by Live Wire Press, Charlottesville, Va., due out this November. The competitive selection process included work by poets from North and South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware.
Written shortly after her mother's death, "Out of Nowhere" offers solace and spiritual connection to others, says Martin, who also serves as learning communities coordinator at TCC's Portsmouth Campus. "Writing this poem was an epiphany for me; it gives me great comfort to read it even today. Being a Baby Boomer, I hoped the poem would touch the lives of others who had lost their parents or who must, at some point, however begrudgingly, become adult orphans, too."
Martin, whose work appears regularly with pieces by other Chesapeake Bay-area writers in a local anthology, Skipping Stones (Mindworm Press), notes how art can arise from loss. Her beloved father died suddenly just four months after her mother, and followed her husband's loss of his parents in 2005.
Martin has other projects in the works, including a nonfiction novel, Beechwell, based on where she once lived that has historical relevance to Whaleyville in Suffolk. "I plan on recording oral histories about the colorful people who once lived there," she adds. She's also outlining a play about complacency toward AIDS resulting in a rise of HIV in Hispanics, women and teenagers, including in South Hampton Roads.
The poetry anthology will be available after its release at the college's bookstore, Barnes & Noble at TCC. Martin plans to read from her work during the premier Books in the Park event on Sept. 28 in Town Point Park, Norfolk – part of the Sunrise to Sunset Acoustic Music Festival, in a new partnership with TCC and its bookstore.
Celebrating its 40th year, Tidewater Community College - the largest provider of higher education and Workforce Solutions services in Hampton Roads - enrolls nearly 40,000 students and has the second largest undergraduate student body in Virginia. The 23rd highest producer of associate degrees in the nation, and the 35th largest community college, TCC is among the 20 fastest-growing large two-year institutions in the United States. Founded in 1968 as a part of the Virginia Community College System, the college serves the South Hampton Roads region with campuses in Chesapeake, Norfolk, Portsmouth and Virginia Beach as well as the TCC Jeanne and George Roper Performing Arts Center in Norfolk's theater district, the Visual Arts Center in Olde Towne Portsmouth and a regional Advanced Technology Center in Virginia Beach. Forty-six percent of the region's residents attending a college or university in Virginia last fall were enrolled at TCC. For more information, visit www.tcc.edu.

Warriors Don't Cry: A Searing Memoir of the Battle to Integrate Little Rock's Central High
History/Women?s Studies 453: U.S. Women?s History Fall 2008 M,W,F 10:10-11:00 (Section 003) HSS 111 Dr. Nancy Schurr Office Hours: M,W,F 8-9:30 2645 Dunford Hall and by appointment (865) 974-5406 (office) (423) 987-6448 (mobile) firstname.lastname@example.com Course Description This course is a survey of American women?s history from the point of contact between Native Americans and Europeans through the present. Using various primary and secondary sources, we will learn about the changes and continuities in women?s lives over time and space. Also, we will move beyond the traditional (white, middle-class) focus of women?s history and explore the experiences of various racial and ethnic groups with a particular focus on the lives of African-American women. Lectures and readings are organized thematically within a roughly chronological framework. Please note that this is a very work-intensive, yet hopefully rewarding, upper-division history course. Students should expect to spend approximately six to seven hours each week, outside of class, reviewing notes and preparing for discussions, papers, and the two exams. Required Texts James West Davidson, ?They Say?: Ida B. Wells and the Reconstruction of Race (2007) Melba Pattillo Beals, Warriors Don?t Cry: A Searing Memoir of the Battle to Integrate Little Rock?s Central High (1994) Note: the ?course readings? on Blackboard are also required. Grades Both the mid-term and the final are essay exams that require you to draw on both lecture materials and course readings. Students will receive a review sheet approximately 2 weeks before each exam. Additionally, students will complete two papers (each consisting of 5-7 typed pages) outside of class. Grades will be determined as follows: 20% = Mid-term exam (taken in HSS 111 on October 1) 20% = Final exam (taken in HSS 111 on Friday, December 5, 10:15-12:15) 20% = Paper #1 on Ida B. Wells (due on October 8) 20% = Paper #2 on Melba Pattillo Beals (due on November 14) 20% = Class participation (please see description below) This course will use the following grading scale: 93-100 = A; 90-92 = A- 87-89 = B+; 83-86 = B; 80-82 = B- 77-79 = C+; 73-76 = C; 70-72 = C- 67-69 = D+; 63-66 = D; 60-62 = D- 0-59 = F Class Participation This course will combine elements of lecture-based learning with a more student-centered approach. I believe that student participation forms an integral part of the classroom experience; thus, it is a significant proportion (20%) of your final grade. The course schedule (see below) has the dates for each class period devoted to discussion. On these days, please bring the assigned readings with you (either in paper or electronic form) and be prepared to contribute to our class conversation. You will be graded each session on both the level and sophistication of your participation, which means that to earn a satisfactory grade in class participation, each student must engage with his or her peers in class. I expect each student to analyze the material, draw their own well-informed conclusions, and be willing to share their opinions with their classmates. Please heed this warning: those who fail to participate on a regular basis will earn unsatisfactory marks in class participation?no exceptions and no whining. As you read the assigned material, please consider the following: who is the author, and does s/he have any potential biases? What is the overall tone and point/argument? What details does the author provide to support his/her main point? Who is the intended audience? Does the document link to?either support or refute?other course readings and/or lectures? Finally, you should assess the overall strength and/or weakness of the source?is it compelling? Why or why not? It might be helpful to jot down some notes as you read each document. That way, you will have your thoughts handy for our classroom discussions. If you have questions or concerns about this course requirement, please speak with me sooner rather than later. Writing Assignments Paper #1 (on Ida B. Wells)?due on October 8 at the beginning of class Paper #2 (on Melba Pattillo Beals)?due on November 14 at the beginning of class Each of these papers should be 5-7 pages in length. Please see the ?Guidelines and Policies for Paper Assignments? below for more information. Both Paper #1 and Paper #2 should address the following themes and questions. Although in different ways, both Ida B. Wells and Melba Pattillo Beals refused to accept the status quo or conform to societal expectations. Describe the ways in which each woman was a rebel/outsider in terms of the racial and gender politics of her era. To what degree did each woman choose her outsider status, and to what degree was it thrust upon her? If we accept that both women lived outside the mainstream of American society, then what does this tell us about the mainstream?particularly in terms of what is expected of and valued in women? Guidelines and Policies for Paper Assignments Each paper should fall within the required page length and conform to standard font and margin size (a 12-point font with uniform 1-inch margins). In Microsoft Word, go to File, Page Setup to make sure that your margin settings match these guidelines. (Please note that a title page does not count as a ?page?). Please number your pages. Each assignment should contain the following: a compelling title, a thesis, and evidence drawn from the reading to ?prove? your argument. Papers turned in without rigorous proofreading and/or without a title, thesis, and supporting evidence will, at the very least, be average (i.e. C-level) work. Please do not use any contractions or slang in your formal writing. Please limit the use of quotations in your paper; I am interested in your thoughts and analysis. A bibliography or works cited page is not necessary. A citation (footnotes, endnotes, or parenthetical) is required when quoting directly from a course document. Please staple your paper together before turning it in. (No, I do not carry a stapler to class). Please do not plagiarize. Plagiarism is the use of another?s words or ideas as your own; I will not tolerate plagiarism in this course. The minimum penalty for academic dishonesty is failure of the course. Students are prohibited from using sources outside those assigned in this course to complete the paper assignments. This includes non-course related sites on the internet. Your papers will be evaluated using the following criteria: the effectiveness of your analysis and the strength and clarity of your presentation?grammar, spelling, punctuation, style, and organization. Papers are due at the beginning of class. Late papers will be penalized in the following manner: under 24 hours = 10 points; under 48 hours = 20 points; 3-5 days late = 35 points. I will not accept papers more than 5 calendar days after the due date. (And remember, you must complete all assignments in order to pass the course). If your paper is late, you must email me the final version (email@example.com) as a Word attachment and then, without making any changes, turn in a hard copy at our next class meeting. I will not accept papers that are placed in my departmental mailbox, shoved under my office door, or deposited under my car?s windshield wipers. Most importantly, if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. Class Policies and Etiquette There is no attendance policy in this class; however, regular attendance is a good foundation for success in this course. Cheating and/or plagiarism will not be tolerated. The minimum penalty for cheating or plagiarism is an F in the course. For more about plagiarism, please see page 38 of the undergraduate catalog. Extra-credit work is not available. Make-up work is possible only in extreme circumstances (severe illness, family death, official University business, etc.) and requires written documentation. Failure to complete all components of the course (i.e., the papers and the tests) will result in an F for the semester. All communications devices (cell phones, blackberries, instant messages, etc.) must be turned off during class. I reserve the right to answer your phone if it rings. Newspaper reading, talking, listening to music, surfing the Web, and other rude behavior will not be tolerated during class. This is your class. Engage the ideas, question the readings and lectures, and, after careful reading and critical thinking, develop and express your own opinions. If you have questions, please ask. I am here to help you. Final Exam Policy ?Students are not required to take more than two final exams on any day.

New Delhi: The Mumbai Police on Monday claimed to have recovered Gurunath Meiyappan's mobile phone from his yacht. The police is still looking for three more phones of Meiyappan, a suspect in the IPL betting case. Police sources said Meiyappan used these phones to stay in touch with bookies.
Meanwhile, Meiyappan's father-in-law and BCCI chief N Srinivasan continued to defy all calls for his resignation on Monday, saying he was being hounded by the media and would not step down at any cost. Srinivasan, who landed in Chennai from Kolkata on Monday, maintained there was no reason for him to resign.
Meanwhile, CNN-IBN nailed the Chennai Super Kings' lie that Gurunath Meiyappan had no substantial links to the team. Visiting cards recovered from Meiyappan's residence said that he was the Chennai Super Kings' Team Principal. On Sunday, Srinivasan had claimed his son-in-law was merely an enthusiast.
Police sources also said that other items found during the raid also linked Meiyappan with the IPL team.
Meanwhile, CNN-IBN also accessed a copy of an email sent by IPL chairman Rajiv Shukla to team owners three years ago that mentioned Meiyappan as CSK owner. The mail was sent in December 2011.

How to search for Absolute Genitives
Posted 29 October 2011 - 05:24 AM
However, many interesting things can be found also in the main Search Window.
If I type:
[ANY genitive]@[Subject]
I will find any Genitive that is Subject. In Greek, this happens when the Predicate is a Genitive Participle.
In other words, the result of the search will be a genitive absolute.
Instead of entering [ANY genitive], I could have entered a part of speech, as [NOUN genitive] or [PRONOUN genitive]. This is good if I want to restrict my search to Prononuns or Nouns. But if I want to make it general, [ANY genitive] will fit better my purpose.
P. Universit� della S. Croce

Posted 31 October 2011 - 03:51 AM
The second Genitive Absolute may be hard to find, as its Subject can be omitted: it is understood that it is the same as the Subject of the first Genitive Absolute.
As a consequence, we cannot search for a [Subject] that is also [ANY genitive]: Accordance can�t find what is not there.
Rather, we need to search for two Genitive Participles, that are part of two Adjunct Dependent Clauses.
In turn, the two clauses will be part of the same Predicate Phrase, as they are both adverbial adjuncts to the same Predicate
We can do this as follows:
- Open a new Search Text, choose GNT-T as search text, and choose to search for Words (not Verses) within every Chapter or Book (not Verse, etc)
- Open a new Greek Constuct (Command-2), that will be automatically linked to the Search Text
- In the Greek Construct window, drag the Phrase element and drop it into the first column
- When prompted, choose Predicate Phrase
- Drag the Clause element and drop it into the first column, within the PREDICATE PHRASE
- When prompted, choose Dependent and Adjunct
- Drag the Verb element and drop it into the first column of the Adjun. DEPENDENT Clause
- When prompted, choose Mood: participle and Case: Genitive
- Press the option key, click on Adjun. DEPENDENT and drag the whole clause to the first free column of the PREDICATE PHRASE. This will duplicate the Adjun. DEPENDENT Clause with its content.
- Press Return, or click on the search button.
The results are as follows:
Screen shot 2011-10-31 at 09.26.34.PNG 273.87KB 18 downloads
Let us examine the results in Search Text Window.
The first hit is Matthew 13:19. The first Genitive absolute is παντὸς ἀκούοντος etc., where παντὸς is the Subject and ἀκούοντος is the Verb in the Predicate. The second Genitive absolute is μὴ συνιέντος. The Verb in the Predicate is συνιέντος. There is no overt Subject, as it is understood that the Subject is still παντός that appeared in the preceding Clause.
The second hit is Mark 6:22. The first Genitive absolute is εἰσελθούσης τῆς θυγατρὸς αὐτοῦ Ἡρῳδιάδος etc., where εἰσελθούσης is the Verb in the Predicate and τῆς θυγατρὸς αὐτοῦ Ἡρῳδιάδος is the Subject. The second Genitive absolute is ὀρχησαμένης. The Verb in the Predicate is ὀρχησαμένης. There is no overt Subject, as it is understood that the Subject is the same that appeared in the preceding Clause.
And so on.

I get 305 hits doing this against the GNT28-T text. What text are you using and do you have the Greek syntax module ?

Hi mkzumaeta,
this might be a silly question, but you have purchased and installed the GNT28 Syntax module haven't you? (or GNT Syntax if that's the text you use).

Hi LeoC1,
This is really odd. I can get your results though I hit issues which I'll have to log separately. But I agree the results do not look correct.
In your example Matt 2:19 does not look like it should be included.
In addition the one reported in Marco's example above Matt 13:19 does not appear with the same highlighting.
Examining these two together which is what I've been puzzling with over the course of the morning, I wonder a couple of things.
The syntax query appears to only be finding a single adjunct in each predicate phrase. I tried a version of the query with just a single adjunct clause under it and that also fails to highlight 13:19 ἀκούοντος yet the syntax chart shows the structures as essentially identical. I've annotated a fragment of the relevant syntax chart for this case.

Apart from the additional adjunct for the negation the structures look the same. There is some nesting of Adjuncts under the Predicate proper but I am not sure whether, or why, that should be relevant.
I suspect a bug here but someone from Accordance will need to check and offer an opinion.

Thank you so much Daniel!
So, I was wondering, is there any other way (any other command) to look for the same grammatical construction in the NT?
Posted 18 April 2015 - 05:40 PM
Good question. It turns out that it's a business creating searches for some of these seemingly very common structures. I have not tried this one myself in earnest. When I try to do these I start with a definition of the construction - usually Wallace is pretty good for getting these. He also provides lists of such constructions. I start developing something and then see if I get his examples in the hits. Of course his lists are not exhaustive so it only gives you an idea whether you are on track or not. In this case with a bit of mucking around I came up with this based on the three basic properties that Wallace cites for this construction, namely :
a. Structure
Structurally, the genitive absolute consists of the following:
1) a noun or pronoun in the genitive case (though this is sometimes absent);
2) a genitive anarthrous participle (always);
3) the entire construction at the front of a sentence (usually).

Now of course this might be criticized in a number of ways but I usually start with something and there play with additional variants to handle word order and so on. And because the above is not a syntax search you can set the scope to Sentence which is helpful given 3 above.
Oh try the one below - I added pronouns which helps a bit I think.

Readership: All those interested in the history of Georgian England and eighteenth century Europe, and in the
history of landscape architecture and the great gardens of Britain and the Continent.
Gordon Campbell, Professor of Renaissance Studies, University of Leicester
Gordon Campbell is Professor of Renaissance Studies at the University of Leicester. He is the author of the best-selling Bible: The Story of the King James Bible and of many other books on literature, art, history, and biography. A fellow of the British Academy and a former chair of the Society for Renaissance Studies, in 2012 he was awarded the Longman - History Today Trustees Award for a lifetime contribution to History. In this book his interests in cultural history, architectural history, and designed landscapes converge in a
pioneering study of the phenomenon of the English ornamental hermit and his hermitage.
"Garden hermits have always been a reproach to luxury and a fascination for voyeurs. They are back in the news because their history has just been set out brilliantly by the distinguished historian, Gordon Campbell." - Robin Lane Fox, Financial Times
"This compelling book is meticulously researched and well written, and superbly produced with excellent photographs and illustrations." - Garden Design Journal
"Gordon Campbell is extremely knowledgeable on garden history and for the hermitage-bibber his book will be a valuable guide." - The Oldie
"[A] gripping detective story,
wonderfully written and illustrated, with an astonishing conclusion. Unmissable." - The Tablet
"[A] succinct and fascinating history ... Although scholarly, it is written in a relaxed, non-academic style and is enlivened by a nicely dry humour." - Peter Parker, The Spectator
"[A] rollicking new history...a book for the enrichment of all our lives." - The Daily Telegraph
"The delicious subtitle of this fine little study - From Imperial Rome to Ornamental Gnome - catches its tone perfectly. Gordon Campbell treats the topic with the seriousness and attention to detail one expects of a scholar, but he never falls
into the academic's trap of assuming his readers are would-be hermit scholars." - Country Life
"[An] engaging study of one of the oddest fads in garden design." - Charles Elliott, Literary Review
"[An] intriguing book." - The Lady

The Washington Redskins are getting a bigger showcase in Carolina Panthers country. Charlotte television station WSOC-TV announced on Monday that it will air Redskins preseason games in the market this August.
Through the ABC affiliate's Channel 9 and TV64, it will televise Washington's exhibition contests against the Tennessee Titans (Aug. 8), Buffalo Bills (Aug. 24) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Aug. 29). The last of the games will be shown on a tape delay on Aug. 30 to avoid a conflict with the Panthers' preseason finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers the night before.
The Redskins, right up there with the Steelers and Bills, have a large following in Charlotte, given Washington is only about a six-hour drive north and many grew up with that team before the Panthers started playing as an NFL expansion franchise in 1995. Although Washington's popularity has only been raised by the presence of quarterback Robert Griffin III, given the status of his rehabbing knee, he may not see game action until the Redskins' regular-season opener.
The Panthers have their own dynamic Heisman Trophy winning quarterback in Cam Newton, and are trying to raise their national profile. To that end, WSOC also bought the local rights to Carolina's marquee regular-season Monday night game against the New England Patriots on Nov. 18.


text: Let's face it. We all get calls from time to time that we don't want. I was receiving a lot of unwanted calls and decided to play around with the settings on my phone to determine if I could stop the calls that way. No luck. So I went in search of an app. When I found Call Control - Call Blocker from Kedlin Company, I was a bit skeptical because the app is free to download and use. However, I've been greatly impressed. The app not only works like it said it would, it offers features I didn't even know I needed. What I wanted from the app was for it to allow certain calls through, but block everything else and it does just that. However, you can also just block certain numbers. There is so much you can do with this app. You can choose for blocked calls to go straight to voicemail or for the phone to pick up and hang up on the caller. If you're tired of being harassed by unknown callers, put a stop to it! I give this app 5 out 5 stars and highly recommend it.

Mentioning all of this is not only relevant, but downright inevitable, in talking about Neil Burger's new film adaptation — screenplay by Evan Daugherty and Vanessa Taylor — because it does precisely the same thing. Like Roth's book, it's smart enough to appeal to "The Hunger Games"' target demographic, but not good enough to stand up to the comparison. It may not be fair to judge the movie against its spiritual forerunner, but frankly, everything about "Divergent" invites the comparison.
Imagine a dystopian future — not too distant from our own — where oligarchs strictly enforce an imposed class system as a means to control the populace. As in "Hunger Games," each group fulfills some necessary function; but here there's no geographical segregation. The five groups all live in a kind of artificial balance. Our heroine, Beatrice (Shailene Woodley) — soon to take on the name Tris — is from Abnegation, the group that is charitable and self-effacing. The other four groups are Erudite (brainy), Candor (truthful), Amity (peaceful), and Dauntless (brave).
In a public rite of passage, Tris chooses to join Dauntless. In fact, she is a Divergent — one of the rare ones whose characteristics fail to fit into a single group. The government council is afraid of Divergents, so she has to keep her multiple talents a secret.
It's not all "Hunger Games" Lite. There are elements that are more like "The Matrix" and "Ender's Game." But most of the details cleave to its main source: the plucky heroine, the romantic interest who shifts between ally and villain, the brewing revolt, and on and on.
Then there's the casting: If the filmmakers wanted to discourage the comparison, they shouldn't have hired Woodley, who looks (or is made to look) as much like Jennifer Lawrence as possible. The comparison is not a fortunate one.
Much of this would be fine if "Divergent" were better than (or at least as good as) "Hunger Games." But in every aspect it falls short. The characters are less complex; the specific story developments are generic; there are none of the genuinely clever plot twists and action ideas; the entire universe of the film is less convincingly put across.
It's possible that youngsters who haven't seen "Hunger Games" — if such beings exist — will be satisfied. Older viewers are likely to get fidgety before all two hours and 20 minutes have unspooled.
