The Hermantown School Board has voted to reinstate funding for the high school's cheer team.
The board voted 4-2 Monday to restore the money. The vote comes two weeks after the board approved to cut the team's district dollars.
School officials said the cut was part of larger district-wide cuts. The board asked administration to cut $250,000. The cheer program was budgeted $2,500.
WDIO-TV reports cheerleaders cheered following the vote.
Board members who supported reinstating funding said they didn't have enough information when they made the cut at the last meeting.
But board chair Greg Carlson expressed concern about "saying it's OK to cut classrooms, just don't touch extra-curriculars."
The reinstated funding will allow the girls to hold tryouts for next fall's team before this school year is over.

UN1001: Perspectives on Inquiry Hope ? A Global Perspective Fall 2006 Why Perspectives? The Perspectives course sequence is intended to provide you with a comprehensive introduction to the genre of the university and the means of study here. It is for this reason that I designed this particular section to be seminar-style. Although seminars are mainly found at upper-division and graduate levels, the personal responsibility required to succeed in the seminar will be a valuable resource for your future education. In addition to the discipline required to complete the work on a weekly basis, this course will provide opportunities for critical thinking, understanding research, exploring ethics, and practicing communication. Course Description What enables one to have hope? What role does hope play in the life of an individual and in a society? This course addresses these overarching questions in an effort to explore the ideas and institutions that provide and support opportunities for hope, as well as examining those circumstances that lead to non-hope or despair. Through study of literature, memoir, philosophy, ?lm, and documentary, we will confront the personal and social challenges of attaining and maintaining hope in a constantly-changing global society. Through research, discussion, and writing, our study of hope will examine the ways hope and despair are engendered in our own lives, our community, and in the lives of others. Ultimately, viewing hope through both a personal and global perspective may help us better understand the ways in which we, as individuals and as a collective, confront change and address the challenges of our future. Required Course Materials All available at the bookstore: The Freedom Writers Diary by the Freedom Writers with Erin Gruwell Reading Lolita in Tehran by Azar Na?si The Future of Peace by Scott A. Hunt Field Notes from a Catastrophe: Man, Nature and Climate Change by Elizabeth Kolbert Composition Journal Resources ?

For general assistance with research, writing, editing, and presentations, contact the MTU Writing Center at 7-2007. Attendance and Participation Attendance includes not only coming to class, but also participating in the daily activities. I expect you to be prepared for the class by having completed all readings and assignments due for the day, and to listen and contribute to class discussions. Because we meet just once a week, more than one absence will affect your ?nal grade. You are responsible for letting me know in advance if you will be absent, and for completing all assignments due for that day. In unforeseen circumstances, such as illness, email me as soon as possible. cynthia weber ? email@example.com ? walker 137 ? office hours: tues 7?9pm, wed 5?7pm There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance. ?

You are responsible for all assignments, even if you are absent, and all work must be completed to receive a ?nal grade. All written assignments must be typed, oral assignments must be accompanied by a written outline, and visual assignments should be burned to a cd. Assignments will be given out in class and also, when possible, posted to my website in advance. Check the course calendar for due dates, especially for those assignments that have multiple components. Please note that each course reading is considered an assignment. Journal To practice both thinking critically and transferring those thoughts into written language, you will be responsible for keeping a course journal. You will be assigned both speci?c questions and general entries in response to the readings, ?lms, and discussion. Entries should be a minimum of two pages in your composition journal (based on average-size handwriting; if yours is larger or smaller, adjust accordingly). Journals will be collected approximately every two weeks, and can be picked up at my of?ce prior to the next class. Grading Your ?nal grade in the course will be calculated with the following percentages in mind: Class participation (attendance, participation, in-class activities) 20% Journal and Writing Assignments 20% Research Project and Presentation 20% Individual Presentation 15% Research Paper 25% To receive a C in this class (remember, C is average) show up to class and complete the minimum requirements for all assignments. To receive an A or a B, you must participate in daily class activities and discussions and complete work beyond the minimum ? work that demonstrates critical thinking and understanding of and engagement with the subject matter. Academic Integrity Presenting others? work as your own or failing to credit resources results in plagiarism, which can lead to academic probation.

Insurance carriers across the country cover artificial disc replacement surgery for the cervical spine with greater frequency. The alternative to the more popular spinal fusion is gaining ground with 200,000 Americans with spinal disorders now having potential access to artificial disc surgery through insurers. The Chicago Institute of Neurosurgery and Neuroresearch (CINN) offers cervical artificial disc surgery from some of the most well-trained neurosurgeons in the country.
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) July 13, 2009 -- For more than a decade, Virginia Sabine endured. But the vibrant 40-year-old wanted more than unbearable neck pain and addictive medication. She wanted her life back.
In 1996, Virginia had two discs fused. Now a third disc was acting up, and she went hunting for answers. She found them in Geoff Dixon, M.D., an experienced neurosurgeon with the Chicago Institute of Neurosurgery and Neuroresearch (CINN). He recommended an artificial disc for the cervical (neck) region that was unanimously approved by the Food and Drug Administration in July 2007. Neurosurgeons at CINN are among the most well-trained surgeons in the country in performing cervical artificial disc surgery and frequently are asked to teach other spine surgeons in the technique.
"The decision to go with artificial disc replacement was easy," Virginia says. "Not only was the procedure covered by insurance, but the benefits far outweighed spinal fusion."
She says that the difference between the artificial disc operation and the

"It's helpful to take incremental steps in terms of individual and family preparedness. So for example, you're about to become a parent for the first time… you don't need to become a pediatrician, but you should know how to do infant CPR and that only takes a couple hours," Friese says after being asked by Hartman on what sort of "realistic"
The theme of the episode, and of the Holistic Survival Show as a whole, is educating and preparing oneself for emergencies to reduce the fear and effect a disaster may have on you and your family. The episode focuses on taking an individual approach with the mentality that anyone, at anytime, could be in a situation where they may need to tend to an emergency.
In speaking about the natural disaster, Hurricane Katrina, Hartman states, "there was a complete lack of preparedness, and way too much interdependence and not enough independence."
Friese also advocates for ongoing emergency and first aid training. He believes education and training can have a positive effect on recognizing a life-threatening emergency when one is happening. Closing the episode, he suggests the American Heart Association and American Red Cross as great organizations to receive basic CPA and First Aid training.

Holistic Survival is about being prepared for modern survival with simple, realistic steps everyone can take to make the world a better place. It's about turning problems into possibilities. It's about stability and community and equipping, fortifying, perfecting, providing, and securing peace of mind. It's about self-reliance and personal responsibility.

Handwriting Fonts: Most Popular Typefaces, Best for Webfonts
Handwriting, penmanship, or calligraphy: they all have different meanings, and they all pertain to specific aspects of writing. Nevertheless, it was an artistic, personal and quintessential method to translate ideas to a semi-permanent format such as paper or parchment, and be used for different ways, but more importantly, to serve as a communication tool, or historical document. Handwriting fonts such as that of several cursive and script fonts have become very popular in the 19th century onwards to the middle of the 20th century. It has become an important tool since a lot of people, especially from, advertising who wanted fonts that are personal and close to known forms especially if they did not have any lettering specialists.
The history of handwriting is extensive and the handwriting fonts are not just limited to cursive or script fonts. Many other fonts have been based on handwriting and thus, can all be attributed as part of the handwriting influence. Other fonts have emerged such as of transitional and modern as well as sans serif fonts as a reaction against more humanist styles connected to handwriting.
Western Calligraphy
The pen is an important tool for any calligrapher. The pen can be round nibbed or flat-balled. Another important tool would be the brush. If you would compare many fonts of today that are calligraphic, cursive or script, they resemble some qualities of being written either by pen or brush. These are characteristics that define handwritten fonts. Other materials used for calligraphy include ballpoint pens as well as felt tip pens but since they produce only thin lines, they do not create fluid, angled lines and variations in strokes. Writing also employed the use of inks. Water based inks are preferred since they are not as viscous as oil-based inks.
In the west, Sacred Western Calligraphy contained unique features as apparent with the illuminated manuscripts. There is an obvious need for ornamentation and letters, especially first letters of each chapter would tend to carry a more artistic flair. Nevertheless, strict rules applied when it came to Western Calligraphy. There is a geometry followed and the rhythm of the text had to be observed. The characters also had specific forms and stroke orders to create consistent results. The unique feature of western handwritten calligraphy is that sizes, colors and styles have different connotations compared to typefaces that focused more on form. Also, with the Sacred Calligraphy of the West, it did not have to be legible but the viewer can definitely empathize with the artwork. A good example of contemporary Western Calligraphy can be explored in Saint John's Bible.
Latin Calligraphy
Latin script was a defining component of western calligraphy and has been developed in Rome to different formats. The Roman Imperial Capitals, Roman cursives and Rustic capitals are used specifically for different media and purposes. Developments continued during the 2nd and 3rd centuries when uncial was created and became very important for monasteries especially when copying the bible. Thanks to the monasteries, they were able to keep old calligraphic legacies within the 4th and 5th centuries as the Western world of the past fell under the Dark Ages. The uncial generated a wide variety of forms depending on where it was used. The styles are dependent on the monasteries. Some of these forms are cursive in nature and like some cursive fonts today, they are not the most pleasant to read especially in extended texts.
When the Carolingian Dynasty came to being, a standardized form of writing was adopted. The style would come from popular monasteries in the 8th century. The Carolingian Script was established and its influence spread across other territories and kingdoms. The said form was adopted for several centuries until they outgrew the past forms and the Carolingian script was transformed to gothic. Its compact and economical format becomes highly popular across Europe. During the 13th century, the first printer was created by Johannes Gutenberg and so the first typeface to be used was the Gothic style. In the 15th century, the Italian humanists created a unique variation to Carolingian and were termed originally as littera antiqua which we now recognize as the humanist minuscule.
With the popularity of copperplate engraving, handwriting became more popular since penmanship books can now be produced faster. They first appeared in 16th century Italy. As the centuries progressed, the need for penmanship became more important.
Handwriting, especially with that of cursive writing has become very important in the 19th century and towards the 20th century. While handwriting and cursives are still required in some schools today, for some reason, the discipline of formal penmanship has been lost due the availability of fonts. For some, traditions like perfect penmanship are obsolete, but with the help of typefaces today, we are able to look back at the history of human skill, how technology became extensions of the hands, and how we perceive good handwriting nowadays.

President Obama's comments on Friday about the killing of Trayvon Martin were remarkable in many respects, but not least because of the distance he has traveled since the equally notable speech he delivered in 2008 during the controversy about his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
When Obama — then an aspirant to the presidency — spoke in 2008, he sought to translate and explain the grievances, fears and resentments of both whites and blacks concerning the volatile topic of race in America. He spoke as a bridge builder who was trying to give something close to equal weight to the views of each side.

The Magazine
The world according to John Irving.
Aug 13, 2001, Vol. 6, No. 45 • By MICHAEL LONG
THE DISSONANCE OF A JOHN IRVING NOVEL—the typically staid John Irving prose used to express the typically steamy John Irving topics—can be overwhelming. It's like listening to a schoolmarm reading aloud the letters to Penthouse.
Irving's novels are a parade of cross-dressers, kink freaks, transsexuals, obsessives, adulterers, and romanticizers of incest—with fantasists, fetishists, emotional nomads, and intellectual onanists. If your definition of a good book is a book about sex, then Irving is the place to go, because does this guy ever write about sex. Constantly. Continuously. Prodigiously. Intensely. Religiously—especially religiously. For Irving's characters, sex is a sacrament. It is the gateway to other awareness, other possibility, other consciousness.
As it turns out, his characters pursue sexual gratification with a peculiarly modern devotion. They go to sex the way a lot of Americans seem to go to church—as a reflexive act, engaged in with little thought, but imagined to be good for the children. For John Irving's characters, sex is the sect, and no one is devout.
The Fourth Hand, Irving's tenth novel, is another exercise in sharply rendered prurience as the driving force of life. Patrick Wallingford, a roguish and immature television reporter whose stories are of the National Enquirer bent, has his hand bitten off by a lion. Just after the accident, he dreams a detailed vision of a love affair.
At the same time, a woman in Wisconsin—the woman of his dream—offers her husband's body for transplant replacement parts, should an early death befall him, which it soon does. The hand changes owners.
The reporter and the widow are irresistibly drawn to each other; they believe their meeting is destiny. He tries to become worthy of the dream girl; she waits around for him. And in an unrelated plot—it's more of an extended anecdote, really—the lonely, brainy transplant surgeon who performs the operation finds love, too.
If Irving had used a lighter touch, the book might have been a sex farce, like his 1972 novel The Water-Method Man. But every moment in The Fourth Hand is rendered in tones so earnest, it's clear Irving intends this as A Serious Piece of Literature.
One wishes to ask him how seriously we are supposed to take a book in which even the most mature characters possess the sexual sophistication of a high-school boy on prom night. In The Fourth Hand, love arrives first, always, and only as sexual attraction. For instance, in Wallingford's dream, his fantasy lover has a voice so provocative that it spontaneously arouses any man who hears it. And when the transplant surgeon hires a live-in housekeeper, she falls in love with him and parades her nubile self around the house naked to get his attention. Not once do two people meet, discover common interests, or flirt. They rut as rite; it is what acquaintances of the opposite sex do just after exchanging names.
John Irving has always been the voice of the libidinous male fantasy, but it seems to have thinned down over the years into nothing except libidinous male fantasy. His stock characters are trotted out—mystical physicians, circus people, seductresses, afflicted animals, poop-hurling joggers, baby-obsessed single women—but without a theme or plot that significantly connects them. They are only riffs on material he's shown us before. (For instance, an early scene in a doctor's office seems a deliberate echo of the encounter between Jenny Fields and the coma patient in The World According to Garp.)
And meanwhile, any touch of reality seems to have faded. In The Fourth Hand, no one worries about their sexual encounters' possibility of disease or unwanted pregnancy—or what their sex lives might reveal about their lives the rest of the time. Wallingford impregnates a freshly minted Midwestern widow in a doctor's office. Callous as that is of Wallingford, what kind of widow—what kind of woman—is so desperate to get pregnant, and so unmoved by grief, that she rapes a stranger for his fatherhood potential within hours of the death of her dedicated husband?
Surely that deranged woman would act deranged in a few other situations. But in The Fourth Hand, Irving's characters engage in sexual distraction and even procreation with all the forethought and consequence of people choosing a candy bar in the checkout line.

I am speaking of the reissued scent.
It has a GREAT rose opening -- wow, it is warm and inviting, really excellent. That combines well with the other floral notes. It is very attractive. The rose has such depth that it suggests earthy notes. The florals are rich but not excessively sweet. They are handled with panache. The overall effect is round and even a bit creamy. The creamy note is augmented by sandalwood. The vanilla (thankfully) is restrained, and merely adds a further softening note which compliments the sandalwood. I'd say this is lovely for a woman and yet woody and restrained enough for a man. The rose note persists, and makes welcome appearances from time to time. The sandalwood likewise persists, in a fairly dry manner. The scent is subtle, classy -- a real winner sure to appeal to many who appreciate a well-constructed and complex scent.

I have looked around with no success. I'm after an inventory or similar plugin which will list inventory items (no shopping cart).
Part No | Description | Price | thumbnail image
An item on this list should hyperlink to a more details page, maybe with a larger image.
It should produce a simple list and generate a menu/page structure which mirrors the categories.
I've tried some shopping cart plugins but can't find one that either allows removal of the cart function or produces a simple spreadsheet like list.

While I don't know for sure, I suspect they made far more than 500 90mm Angulons, and in any case the camera can be used with pretty much any small 90mm press style lens with just some shimming, shims to be included I think, and the job should be pretty easy with the ground glass they are including.
I happen to have a Linhof Angulon that I got years ago with my Tech III so I bought one of these almost right away, but even if I hadn't, I would have bought one. Keeping an eye out over the coming months would turn up something workable, I'm sure.

MINNEAPOLIS — Kevin Love in a Nuggets uniform?
Given the way the Minnesota big man has been ripping through the NBA — particularly from a rebounding standpoint — it would have been a welcome sight to many Nuggets fans.
According to coach George Karl, the Nuggets put feelers out to the Timberwolves in the summer to see if Love was available.
"We liked him last year when he was kind of inconsistent," Karl said. "We made inquiries on Kevin Love this summer. (But) we didn't think this. We didn't think he'd make the huge step that he's made from last year to this year. This is incredible."
Asked how close the Nuggets were to acquiring Love, Karl said: "I know he was on our radar screen. I know there were inquiries. In some of the meetings we talked, his name was out there. It never got close, I know that."
Love ripped the Nuggets in their first meeting this season for a career- high 43 points and 17 rebounds.
"He kind of rebounds like Wes Unseld," Karl said. "He's definitely a rebounder beneath the rim. And then I think the combination of his outlet passes. . . . (He) just anticipates the angles, he seals, he plays before the ball hits the rim. I think he reads the ball before it hits the rim. He just has that knack, that commitment."
Nene's return.
Nene was out of the Nuggets' lineup with a sore low back and hamstring. While Karl couldn't give a solid timetable for his return, he hoped Nene would return for Saturday's game against Sacramento, along with Kenyon Martin and Carmelo Anthony.
While Nene was a late scratch, Karl said he saw the possibility for a missed game Tuesday night.
"He came out of the game in the third quarter and kind of, at that time didn't feel that he could go back in the game," Karl said. "We didn't need him to go back in the game, but we knew last night he had felt his muscle tighten up."

Campus & Community
In addition to its regular business intensives, the Texas Business Foundations Summer Institute is turning its attention to health care.
This summer's Texas 4000 bike ride enabled business students to to help fund cancer research while spreading the pillars of hope, knowledge, and charity.
In a recent commencement address, Charles Holley, chief financial officer of Walmart, urged Master of Science in Information, Risk, and Operation Management graduates to follow these six steps for success.
A new campus-wide initiative is placing mental health professionals into six colleges across The University of Texas at Austin, including the McCombs School of Business, to make counseling services more accessible for students.
Between the fall 2013 and spring 2014 "Austin A-Lists," nine of the 24 hottest startups identified were either founded by McCombs alumni, launched from the school's Texas Venture Labs, or participated in the Texas Venture Labs Investment Competition.
Students and alumni are navigating what it means to be "out" as LGBT in both school and the professional world.
Sometimes perfectly good words transform into jargon or business clichés through repeated abuse. McCombs professors explain why you should send the hip and high-tech facade of business jargon packing.
Founded in 2003, the Intellectual Entrepreneurship program assists University of Texas at Austin students in exploring graduate programs.
For more than two decades, the Business Foundations Program has been providing students from across the 40 Acres with an education in the fundamentals of business.
Before our newest alumni from the Class of 2014 left campus, they were treated to some final lectures from a distinguished crop of commencement speakers.

Self-compassion, another tool, is a must. "To stay healthy in this chaotic world, one has to hold on to one's own needs, know what those needs are, protect wellness, hold on tight."
"I recently reverted back to some old, unhealthy behaviours," Gardiner says."Old habits do die hard. I then rather promptly found myself in the middle of a depression. The episode was short-lived, thanks to the tools and strategies I've developed for myself, and now share with others. But there is no doubt - depression is a powerful reminder that self-care is essential for the long term."
Many other unique stress management techniques, insights and ideas can be found throughout Gardiner's website.

Who Am I, Anyway? Changing Natures in the Forest of Arden
Wednesday, July 13, 2011
"As You Like It" is considered a romantic comedy, and it certainly has the right "boy meets girl" ingredients. In fact, by the end of the play four boys meet girls. But though the relationship of the central couple, Rosalind and Orlando, is a core element in the work, and is heard in a minor key in the wooings of the three other couples, Michael Boyd's production for the Royal Shakespeare Company reminds us that all kinds of love are on offer here. There is parental love, filial love, the love of servant for master, and vice versa; there is instant love, devoted love, rejected love — and all of them are put to the test in the Forest of Arden.

Want more information? Check out the Halo Trainer spotlight in our Blog: Get a Grip on Your Core.
This friction-fitting ergonomic handlebar apparatus allows the exerciser to control the level of stability while using a stability ball, BOSU, or TRX. Hundreds of exercises have been classified into level of difficulty to make it easy for personal trainers and exercise enthusiasts. In fact, the Halo Training System is very effective as a group fitness class tool and a fun addition to bootcamp classes.
It is very common to hear "core" used interchangeably with "abs". Although the abdominals are a large contributor to the core, there are many more muscles that compose the core – 29 to be exact. Think of the core as a cylinder around your spine. A cylinder is a three dimensional shape with top, bottom, and contoured sides, front, and back. All these muscles have a role to protect, stabilize, or move your spine for safe and efficient movement. The Halo Trainer encompasses this very approach to training. Our exercises will engage your core while strengthening your shoulders, hips, knees, etc. Why not save time on your workouts by efficiently incorporating core strengthening into your workouts.
- Can be used with any 55 cm to 65 cm exercise ball
- Heavier gauge frame, thicker, and more durable rubber grips
- Easy click connectors make it easy to assemble
- Tested up to 800 lbs.
- Width: 21" (53.3 cm)
- Length: 24" (60.1 cm)
- Height: 12" (30.5 cm)
- Weight: 8 lbs. (3.6 kg)
Halo Training currently consists of 4 levels of difficultly for functional bodyweight training.
Level 1
This is an entry level to fitness. If you are reasonably healthy but have not really engaged in much physical activity, this is the level for you!
Level 2
This lever is a great next step in your fitness journey. If you have already been working out consistently, then Level 2 might just offer the challenge you are looking for.
Level 3
This is very challenging. Although it is not the hardest level, proceed with caution. Many exercises will require great core stabilization and upper/lower body strength to complete the challenges.
Level 4
This level is reserved for experience exercisers or competitive athletes. Many of the exercises require very fine control, great strength, and significant power.

Useful Notes: Meiji Restoration
The contrast between that which preceded the funeral car and that which came after it was striking indeed. Before it went old Japan; after it came new Japan. New Japan quickly separated to left and right and seated itself in the pavilions on either side. But old Japan had passed by and disappeared, and we could only hear now and again the distant wail of the reed pipes. After that the long rites began.Before the 1870s, Japan was ruled by the Shogun, a military ruler, for all intents and purposes. In 1854 that began to change when Commodore Matthew Perry note of the U.S. Navy pulled into a harbor in Shimoda and used Gunboat Diplomacy to open Japan into trading with the outside world. This opened up all kinds of turmoil within the various clans. In 1866, the Satsuma and Choshu domains (nursing a 250-year old grudge over their defeats against Tokugawa Ieyasu) allied and built the foundation of the Meiji restoration, challenging the Tokugawa clan to restore power to the emperor. The previous Emperor passed away in 1867, allowing Meiji (Mutsuhito) to take the throne. The Meiji restoration officially began when the Shogun resigned and handed duties and prerogatives over to The Emperor. It was not a peaceful transition, as the Shogunate's supporters and those of the Emperor struggled for dominance. The infamous Shinsengumi were formed by the Shogunate during this time. The Boshin War began in 1868, when The Remnant of the Shogunate (including the last remaining members of the aforementioned Shinsengumi) made a last ditch effort to create a republic in modern-day Hokkaido and fought with the Emperor's forces as a result. With the final defeat of the Shogunate forces, Japan was reunited under Imperial rule. The Meiji period covers the entire reign of Emperor Meiji from the Restoration in 1867 to 1912, when Meiji was succeeded by his son Taishō (Yoshihito). The Meiji period saw Japan's adoption of a Western-style constitutional monarchy, modeled primarily on that of Imperial Germany. Nominally, the Emperor had a great deal of authority, but in reality power lay with the genro, a group of aristocrats who ran the ministries and had brought about the Restoration in the first place. The genro established a Western-style title system, merging the Japanese nobility, which had previously been bifurcated into Imperial Court nobles (kuge) and feudal lords (daimyō), into a single class (kazoku), whose members sat as the upper house of the new Imperial Diet, the House of Peers. The lower house, the House of Representatives, had rather stringent age and property requirements for voting during the Meiji era, and its powers were limited. The Imperial Prime Minister and Government were theoretically appointed by the Emperor, but Emperor Meiji seems to have decided that for his own sake it would be better to allow the genro to decide who would take office when (a wise choice, seeing what happened to Wilhelm II in Germany). More significantly, although all bills had to get the assent of both houses of the Diet, they could not originate in the Diet (the Government had to propose them), and they also had to have the assent of the Emperor. All in all, it's not clear how much influence Emperor Meiji had; he was a very private man and seems to have been a rather gentle-tempered sort of fellow (one of the few glimpses into his personality is a short poem that seems to mark him as, if not a pacifist, then certainly someone who disliked fighting and war), and he certainly never used his powers directly without his advisors' say-so. Still, it's entirely possible that he exerted subtler influence on policy; this is, after all, Japan, where deals done quietly in a back room are the norm. The period saw rapid industrialization in Japan, with urbanization (and its problems) to match. Most of the zaibatsu were founded during this time (although two of the largest, Mitsui and Sumitomo, dated back to the 17th century, and the actual term was not widely used until after World War I), with both the long-suppressed merchant class and noble and ex-samurai families trying their hands at commerce and building industrial empires. Japan's political empire has its origin here, as well: the new Japanese industries, hungry for resources and markets, saw the government snapping up Pacific islands such as Okinawa and Formosa and, by winning the First Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War, carving out spheres of influence in nearby China. Japan's first large-scale colony was established when Korea became a Japanese "protectorate" in 1905, becoming annexed in 1910. The Meiji reforms were promoted with a number of slogans that could be written with four kanji:
—The New York Times, "The Funeral Ceremonies of Meiji Tenno", October 13th 1912
- Fukoku kyōhei (富国強兵) — "rich country, strong military"
- Shokusan kōgyō (殖産興業) — "increase production, promote industry"
- Bunmei kaika (文明開化) — "civilization and enlightenment"
- Wakon yōsai (和魂洋才) — "Japanese spirit, Western learning"
Works set in this time period include:
open/close all folders
Anime and Manga
- Rurouni Kenshin begins in the eleventh year of the Meiji period (1879) and among other things deals with ex-samurai trying to find their new place in the world in the period.
- To give a few examples, Kid-Appeal Character Yahiko and his friend Tsubame struggle with chains to the past early on (Yahiko tries to act like a traditional samurai, while Tsubame initially serves the descendent of a samurai family her own family served for generations). In addition, Saito Hajime (formerly of The Shinsengumi) views the police force he now works with as successors to his fallen comrades due to the Shinsengumi's original job of protecting the peace and so is somewhat displeased when someone goes around gleefully slaughtering them.
- Gintama takes place during the same period as the restoration, but with aliens as the foreigners and the shogunate actually winning the war.
- Donten ni Warau is set during this era, however the focus is less on politics and more on the supernatural.
Comic Books
- The Abrafaxe spend the arc from Mosaik No. 323 to 343 in Japan in the year 1872. There they meet the Prussian engineer Heinrich von Himmelgut (on a mission to help build Japanese railways), who falls in love with Toshiko, the daughter of a former samurai.
- The Last Samurai takes place in a somewhat skewed version of the Satsuma Rebellion and Boshin War events.
- Blossoms and Shadows is a dramatization of the beginning of the Meiji Restoration through the eyes of a fictional young woman tending the wounded. Many parts of the book are about the "Village School Under the Pine" and its students, which played a significant part in fomenting dissent against the Tokugawa government.
Live Action TV
- The NHK drama Saka no Ue no Kumo (Clouds over the Slope) covers the lives of the Akiyama brothers from 1868 to the end of the Russo-Japanese War.
Video Games
- Total War: Shogun 2: Its expansion Fall of the Samurai takes place in this period.
- Victoria 2 covers the time period during which the Meiji Restoration took place. Japan can choose to enact a political decision that models the Restoration by allowing the nation to adopt Western policies more quickly. The Boshin War is not specifically modeled by the game, but general uprisings can occur among more conservative populations if the Restoration occurs too soon.
- Dai Gyakuten Saiban: Naruhodou Ryuunosuke no Bouken, a Meiji-era spinoff of the Ace Attorney series, starring Phoenix Wright's (Ryuuichi Naruhodou) Identical Grandfather Ryuunosuke Naruhodou. The game is described as taking place in a time where the profession of a "defense attorney" is still a fresh one in Japanese society. While the game's first case takes place in Meiji-era Japan, the rest of the game takes place in Victorian London, where Ryuunosuke meets, among other characters, the famed Sherlock Holmes.

How Johnson Fought the War on Poverty: The Economics and Politics of Funding at the Office of Economic Opportunity
Martha J. Bailey, Nicolas J. Duquette
NBER Working Paper No. 19860
This paper presents a quantitative analysis of the geographic distribution of spending through the 1964 Economic Opportunity Act (EOA). Using newly assembled state- and county-level data, the results show that the Johnson administration directed funding in ways consistent with the War on Poverty's rhetoric of fighting poverty and racial discrimination: poorer areas and those with a greater share of nonwhite residents received systematically more funding. In contrast to New Deal spending, political variables explain very little of the variation in EOA funding. The smaller role of politics may help explain the strong backlash against the War on Poverty's programs.

I look forward to hopefully having some good conversation on how we can get this team turned around and get back to a Superbowl and win it this time. What? So you jumped off the wagon of a talented 2nd year QB who made the Pro Bowl last season and broke P. Manning rookie passing yards already?? Shame on you. But glad you now know you're wrong.
