An Beal Bocht Cafe
RECOMMENDED: More best date spots by neighborhood
An Beal Bocht Cafe
There's something going on nearly every night of the week at this spirited Riverdale Irish pub, whether it's live music, a monthly quiz night, or occasional comedy shows and book readings. If you'd prefer to entertain your date with rehearsed stories about yourself, there are plenty of quiet corners for doing that as well.
- 445 W 238th St between Greystone and Waldo Aves, Bronx (718-884-7127, anbealbochtcafe.com)
Bronx Alehouse
Plan a series of dates at this brick-walled pub, a bona fide craft-beer headquarters. You and your squeeze can attempt to become Gold Members of the bar's Beer Club by sampling and rating 100 different quaffs from their brew list. And thanks to a sizable lineup of domestic-leaning taps, a rotating cask and plenty of bottles, hitting that mark isn't all that hard a task.
- 216 W 238th St (between Putnam Ave West and Review Pl), Bronx
Bronx Museum of the Arts
- Free
In the '70s, a group of community activists established this institution to showcase the work of African-, Hispanic- and Asian-American artists, and to create a meeting point for the surrounding multicultural community. And they mean it about being inclusive—admission is free.
- 1040 Grand Concourse (at 165th St), Bronx
New York Botanical Garden
Want to experience more exotic flora than Central Park has to offer? Whisk your beau away to the NYBG's Enid A. Haupt Conservatory. Here, you can experience 11 different ecosystems, including a rain-forest canopy with fig and rubber trees as well as an American desert terrain with cacti and mesquite plants. Back outside, you can explore the 250-acre landscape covered in diverse gardens; in the winter, check out the fir and spruce trees in the Arthur and Janet Ross Conifer Arboretum. After you're done exploring, duck under the shade of one of the more than 30,000 trees to do a little planting of your own—and by that we mean kisses, on each other.
- Bronx River Pkwy (at Fordham Rd), Bronx
Wave Hill
You'll find meticulously groomed gardens, as well as stunning views of the Hudson River and the Palisades, at this formerly private estate. A free shuttle from the Metro-North Riverdale station (and at the end of the 1 train) will escort you to the garden. Enjoy the view, take a hike through the woods, then stretch out on the wide lawn to canoodle and soak up the sunshine. For gratis admission, visit Saturday (9am–noon) or Tuesday (Nov–Apr, July, Aug all day; May, June, Sept, Oct 9am–noon).
- W 249th St (at Independence Ave), Bronx

The funding allocations for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Consortium Annual Action Plan for the fiscal year of 2013-14 will total $1,047,319. During CDBG program years, the City of Sparks receives direct funding, which this year totals $545,181. Additionally, the city's partnership with the Washoe County HOME Consortium (WCHC) brings in supplemental funds as well. The city has identified projects and services to carry out using the new block grant funding including:
•$126,473 for planning and administrative activities including; planning and administration, housing rehab administration, fair housing and continuum of care.
•$81,777 to support operation of the Community Assistance Center (Homeless Shelters).
•$50,000 for the city administered Emergency Repair Grant Program (ERG).
The city will use the carryover funds for previously approved activities including:
•$95,000 for the city administered single family, owner-occupied housing rehabilitation loan program.
•$188,000 for Community Assistance Center facility improvements. Some activity will be funded with a combination of new and reprogrammed funds:
•$506,069 for pedestrian improvements in a project area with boundaries of Pyramid Way on the west, Prater Way to the north, 4th Street to the east and Victorian Avenue on the south. Of this amount, approximately $286,931 is new funding and $219,138 is from previous years.
The WCHC proposed projects include a pre-planning of the Sage Apartments, a new multi-family apartment development proposed for a site at the intersection of 4th and Wright Way in Sparks.
On a separate agenda item, the Sparks City Council awarded Spanish Springs Construction with a portion of the 2013 Curb, Gutter, Sidewalk and Pavement Replacement Project worth $432,444. This portion of the project will target Sbragia Way from Rock Boulevard to 9th Street, and 9th Street from Sbragia Way to Greenbrae Drive.
City of Sparks Professional Engineer John Martini said in a staff report the debilitated roadway in Sparks does not function properly. He said the work to be done by Spanish Springs construction is in a preventative nature designed to save the city money.
"The concrete surface is spalling, causing trip hazards as well as restricting flow within the curb and gutter," Martini said in the report. "The existing roadway has deteriorated and is in need of repair, an overlay at this time will repair the roadway in a preventative manner and save the city money by not having to rebuild the road in the future at a much higher cost."
Three local parks were also approved for improvements Monday by the Council. The parks will receive new playground equipment and shading for the upcoming summer season. The Council approved $40,700 for a Mega Span Shade at Shadow Mountain Sports Complex that staff said will provide shade and protect spectators from foul balls.
Cottonwood Park near the Truckee River was also approved for four shading structures, which will be purchased and installed for about $61,000. The shading, according to city staff, will provide "much needed shade and seating" for frequent visitors to the park.
Van Meter Park in east Sparks will replace 14-year-old playground equipment that was deemed unsafe after a city review. The new equipment will be purchased for just less than $26,000 and will be the "standard play equipment" the city places in local parks, according to the staff report. It will satisfy ages 2 and older.

"There's a saying which made its rounds in geekdom recently – "Real nerds watch Community". Now I take issue with the idea of "real nerds" but the sentiment still stands. Whereas The Big Bang Theory sees nerd culture as an object of ridicule, Community celebrates it. Community's laughing with you whereas Big Bang is giving you a wedgie and laughing at you. When TBBT makes a pop culture reference it uses it as a punchline, it names a show like Firefly and asks you to laugh at it. When Community makes a pop culture reference it commits. Community makes a whole episode based on a trope or a genre, it doesn't just use paintball as a plot device it takes paintball seriously and bases two season finales around epic battles of paint. Community doesn't laugh at the idea of playing D&D it bases an episode on it. Parallels can be drawn between the characters of Sheldon in Big Bang and Abed in Community. Abed too has trouble reading sarcasm and emotion, he has obsessions with routine and structure as well and disruptions in routine cause him considerable distress. Abed sees everything in terms of television and film tropes. This is how he understands the world around him and how he figures out how best to react. Unlike Sheldon, it is often confirmed that Abed does have mental difficulties, most likely Asperger's Syndrome. But, crucially, the main difference between Sheldon and Abed is that Abed is treated as a hero. In the pilot episode Jeff Winger, arguably the most conventionally "cool" member of the group says this: "Abed is a shaman. You ask for bread and Abed gives you soup because soup is better. Abed is better". In one episode Abed is literally treated as a god. Yes, his neuroses do at times inconvenience the rest of the group but his belief that they see him as a nuisance is dismissed as his own insecurity rather than the truth. Community positions us, its audience, as Abed. It knows that we are knowledgeable about the things we love, it knows that we understand tropes and genre conventions, it gives us the benefit of the doubt and treats us as intelligent human beings who will not only understand the meta pop culture references, but will find them funny and love the show for it. Community tells us it's cool to be a nerd. If Abed is better then we are better. Community is a warm hug of acceptance whereas The Big Bang Theory is a pantsing and a punch in the face."—

Harvest praise band releases CD
Date: July 1, 2009
by: Michael Eng | Executive Editor
LAKEWOOD RANCH — Some bands labor over a recording project for years.
Harvest United Methodist Church's HY5 Praise Band completed its debut album in one day.
The group, comprising eight teenagers and Harvest Youth Minister Scott Harris, released "Believe Belong Live Love Grow" in April. Recorded in one whirlwind session at Cornerstone United Methodist Church in Naples, the six-track disc features covers of popular contemporary Christian tunes as well as Harris' own arrangement of "Come Thou Fount."
"This is something I've always wanted to do; it's always been in the back of my mind," Harris said. "It was crazy and hectic, but it was a great experience."
Normally, recording studio rates range from $50 to $80 per hour. But Harvest was able to offer its facility to Cornerstone's Holy Moly band for a concert in exchange for studio time in the Venice church's Broom Closet Studios.
"It definitely was a great opportunity for us," Harris said.
The band rehearsed feverishly in the weeks before the studio date. Because of time constraints, the band had to record everything live — meaning each musician had to play his or her parts perfectly at the same time. There was no time to go back and rerecord a botched drum fill or guitar solo.
"The first 45 minutes were rough; there was a lot of stop and go," Harris said. "But then, we kicked it into gear. The kids did a great job."
The CD is both a memento for the HY5 Praise Band and the Harvest family as well as a promotional tool for the music program as a whole. Because the band utilizes teenage musicians, its lineup likely will change every few years. But Harris hopes projects such as "Believe Belong Live Love Grow" will stimulate interest for years to come.
"All of the money (from CD sales) goes into the ministry of music here," he said. "We hope to keep it going and make it sustainable."
And of course, the album gives the group a chance to share their Christian faith.
"In the (CD liner notes), there are no names; it's not really about us or glorifying ourselves," he said. "This is all about providing a message that's inspiring to people."

ANNAPOLIS, MD (July 13, 2010) – First Lady Katie O'Malley today addressed participants of the National Network to End Domestic Violence's Annual Convention which was held at the Renaissance Harbor Hotel in Baltimore. The two-day conference convened national experts from state and federal agencies to discuss ways states can solve problems with regard to enforcing state and federal firearms laws. As an Associate Judge for the District Court of Baltimore City, in her prior work as a prosecutor, and in her volunteer work at the House of Ruth, First Lady Katie O'Malley has worked tirelessly to strengthen protections for victims of domestic violence.
"Today's conference is about keeping guns out of the hands of abusers. Everyone here today knows how critical this issue is, but I want to underline why it's so important for us to focus on," said First Lady Katie O'Malley. "In my work as a judge, I have seen too many times the tragic results of what happens when domestic abusers have access to firearms."
"Over the last year in Maryland, we have had 53 domestic violence-related deaths – and more than half of those deaths were by firearms," she continued. "Studies show that the presence of a gun in a home is associated with three times the homicide risk of a home without a gun. That risk increases to eight times when the offender is an intimate partner or relative of the victim, and is 20 times higher when a history of domestic violence exists."
"While there are still far too many deaths from domestic violence, my husband – Governor O'Malley – and the General Assembly are working together to make real progress to crack down on abusers, take guns out of the hands of violent criminals, and to make our State safer for all Marylanders," she said.
Last year, the O'Malley-Brown Administration partnered with members of the General Assembly to pass legislation that removes guns from the hands of domestic abusers. This year, the O'Malley-Brown Administration partnered with members of the General Assembly to pass legislation allowing a victim of domestic abuse to terminate a residential lease with a copy of a final protective order.
"The legislation provides important new restrictions and reduces the risk of death or injury to those most vulnerable to attack, as well as to police officers," said First Lady O'Malley. "These new laws are vitally important to us, since District Court judges enforce state law – not federal law. These important new state laws give Maryland District Court judges powerful new measures to protect victims in domestic violence cases."
In enacting these laws, Maryland not only comes into compliance with Federal Law, but also joins seven other states in which judges are required to order a respondent of a final protective order to surrender all firearms, and twelve states that require judges to order the surrender of all firearms during a temporary protective order.
American women who are killed by their intimate partners are more likely to be killed with guns than by all other methods combined. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, compared to homes without guns, the presence of guns in the home is associated with a 3-fold increased homicide risk within the home. The risk increases to 8-fold when the offender is an intimate partner or relative of the victim and is 20 times higher when previous domestic violence exists.
In addition to the firearms legislation, the Governor's Office of Crime Control and Prevention has distributed federal Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds for initiatives to aid in the fight to stop domestic violence and assist the victims of these crimes throughout the state. The forty-five grants to date total $2.3 million.

Hospitalization can be an ideal window of opportunity for assisting patients with their tobacco use. Many patients already view this time as a possible "headstart" for quitting their tobacco use. The less nicotine withdrawal the patient is enduring the more pleasant patient experience they will have and the fewer patient care complications providers are likely to encounter.

At Halloween we scare ourselves with tales of ghouls, ghosts, and The Boogeyman. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
We adults know these stories are not true, but in recent years we've been spreading myths--even that we believe that homicidal strangers are regularly poisoning trick-or-treat candy.
Every year, newspapers and television programs warn parents about this "threat' with grave reminders to check apples for razor blades and needles.
This year, the Food and Drug Administration has joined in the tale-telling, warning parents to inspect commercially wrapped treats for signs of tampering, such as an unusual appearance or discoloration, tiny pinholes, or tears in wrappers. Throw away anything that looks suspicious.
But the FDA is telling just another scary tale, with as much truth as the legend of Hookhand: Halloween candy-tampering is a myth. <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />University of Delaware sociologist Joel Best studied national criminal data going back to 1958 and found only 76 reports of any kind of tampering, of which almost all turned out to be mistaken or fraudulent.
In all that time, there have been three incidents of children dying in what were reported as cases of tainted candy, but even these had nothing to do with homicidal strangers.
A case in 1970 involved a child from Detroit who stumbled upon and ate his uncle's stash of heroin. The child's parents, not wanting the uncle to go to jail for possession, concocted the tainted-candy story.
In 1974, a Houston boy was intentionally poisoned by his father, who then made up the story about contaminated candy.
The third case, in 1990, concerned a Los Angeles-area girl with a congenital heart condition. The girl had a fatal seizure while trick-or-treating. Even though her parents immediately notified the authorities about their daughter's heart condition, television, radio and newspapers blared shocking news reports of poisoned Halloween candy. No evidence of tampering was ever found.
There is one undetermined case. In 1982, 15 children and one adult fell ill after eating candy and cakes at a New Jersey school Halloween party. Some observers were suspicious, although there did not appear to be any tampering. Regardless, no one died.
The lack of evidence is such that Mt. Holyoke College criminologist Richard Moran could "not uncover a single case of child murder that could be attributed to Halloween sadists.'
His conclusion: Such incidents are "mythical.'
So why do we persist in scaring ourselves this way?
Strangely enough, the reason may lie in how safe our society is for children. If our children are not subjected to the real horrors of disease, starvation and war that have worried parents throughout history and still do so in some parts of the world, we still feel a need to protect them from something. The figure of the murderous candy-poisoner fills the vacuum very well.
In recent years, we have conflated the idea with terrorism, to the extent that some parents now worry about al-Qaida operatives tampering with the treats.
To students of psychology, this is an interesting twist in the legend. To children, however, it is positively harmful.
In protecting children from an unproven threat, parents may not just be taking some of the fun out of childhood but also raising children in an atmosphere of paranoia, which cannot be good for them.
There is another downside. Repeating myths like these every year may ultimately create a self-fulfilling prophecy, inspiring deranged individuals to carry out previously nonexistent crimes.
To paraphrase some useful advice: The FDA should be careful what it warns about, it just might get it.

Clam AntiVirus is a multi-platform GPL anti-virus toolkit. ClamAV is often integrated into mail gateways, and used to scan mail traffic for viruses. More information about ClamAV is available from http://clamav.net/. Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME), is an internet standard for sending email with non-text attachments, multi-part message bodies, and non-ASCII character sets.
Remote exploitation of a directory traversal vulnerability in Clam AntiVirus' ClamAV allows attackers to overwrite files owned by the clamd scanner.
The vulnerability specifically exists due to the lack of validation of the id parameter string taken from a MIME header. When parsing a multi-part message clam takes this string from the header and uses it to create a local file. By sending a string such as "../../../../some/file" an attacker can create or overwrite an arbitrary file owned by the clamd process. Data from the message body is later written to this file.
Exploitation allows attackers to degrade the service of the ClamAV virus scanning service. The most important mitigating factor is that the clam process runs with the privileges of the clamav user and group. This group has access to a limited subset of files on the host. A possible target for overwriting is the virus database file. By overwriting this file an attacker could then send a virus through the gateway without clam recognizing it; this effectively denies service. Arbitrary viruses will be allowed to pass through, creating a false sense of security.
iDefense has confirmed this vulnerability affects Clam AntiVirus ClamAV v0.88.6. All versions prior to the 0.90 stable release are suspected to be vulnerable.
iDefense is unaware of any effective workarounds for this issue.
Clam AntiVirus has addressed this vulnerability in the version 0.90 stable release.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the name CVE-2007-0898 to this issue. This is a candidate for inclusion in the CVE list (http://cve.mitre.org/), which standardizes names for security problems.

Local, national and international groups and alliances of forest rights holders are working with the IUCN through the Growing Forest Partnership initiative and The Forests Dialogue to explore how to ensure that appropriate support and investments reach the people on the ground – "investing in locally controlled forestry". The goal of the dialogue initiative is to; build relationships between the stakeholders; identify the obstacles and opportunities for investment in LCF; increase the visibility, role, and potential that locally controlled forests can have; and identify tools and processes to support enhanced investment.
The long term objective of this process is to ensure that investment streams address the concerns of forest dependent people and contribute to the positive role of sustainable locally controlled forestry.
Throughout the process LCF groups, donors, NGO's, and the private sector have all been involved. It has also included a classification of types of investment into LCF and ensured all different types of investors have been involved in the process – the process has had up to 250 stakeholders involved to date.
As outcomes to the process to date a guide has been designed and TFD will have produced a review to summarize the key process steps and findings. WCC would provide a platform to launch these to a global audience.

i mean if my php code lacks security features.....and i am using ssl connection is that enough for protecting my website.....and also tell me about any software which can help me for protecting my php website...thank you:)
If the underlying php code is not secure then using ssl is like taking an aspirin for a cut on your finger, (it may make you feel better, but it will not fix the problem).
Also the use of an ssl certificate from any of the reputable suppliers does require you to ensure that your code is as secure as is reasonably possible, if it is not then the use of the ssl certificate is invalid.
No one expects you to provide the same security as one would expect from a banking site, (unless you are a bank) but basic security and good coding practices should be a given anyway.
An SSL certificate only secures the passing of data between the browser and server. There are many other extremely serious vulnerabilities that it does not protect.
Your most important security concern should be any forms that accept user input of any type, especially if the input populates a database. These forms must be protected with validation that sanitizes out malicious code injections. They should also verify that email addresses follow the actual structure of email addresses, that integer fields are really integers, etc.
If your users upload files or images to your site, then you must protect your server from a variety of vulnerabilities, such as malicious code being uploaded to your server that gives hackers server access.
There are many other vulnerabilities to be aware of.
Anyone who figures the hackers would have no interest in their website should examine their server logs to view all the activity coming from Russia, China, etc., such as failed FTP attempts.
Unfortunately there is not any actual software that you can just add to your website to protect it. Your best defence is your own knowledge of the vulnerabilities and the appropriate defences. If you control your server, then the one piece of useful software is a good firewall.

Very true. You can't have enough layers of security these days.
To step things up a notch, we recently added Secure Live to our VPS and Dedicated Servers with good results. Secure Live is also available for single domains.
PS. I don't work for them. I just use their product.

Getting a ssl certificate for securing your website is a good choice but getting the right ssl certificate is very important. So get a ssl certificate which provides a strong protection by using best encryption methods , Comodo ssl certificate is having the best encryption methods. If you have a website with more sub domains then go for Wildcard SSL Certificate which is a single ssl certificate that secures all domains.
Just so there's no misunderstanding, adding SSL to a website that a) collects user input, and b) otherwise has no protection from injection and does not sanitize user input is a useless step.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla.—Chance Warmack is a key ingredient in moving Alabama's offense down the field, but the senior left guard and potential first-round NFL draft pick only learned how to drive—a car that is—three months ago.
"I'm just lazy," he said, laughing. "I had a whole bunch of friends who could drive me around, so I didn't ever wanna get my license. But I got it now."
Warmack's grandfather, Virgil Sanders, lives in Mobile, Ala., which is three-and-a-half hours south of Tuscaloosa. When Warmack would visit, Sanders would take him to an empty parking lot to learn the rules of the road.
Back at school, Warmack said some of his teammates would practice with him, but it came at a cost. His offensive line brethren, especially D.J. Fluker, Barrett Jones and Cyrus Kouandjio, would mess with him.
"I always try to clown on him when I get the opportunity, so it was a blessing when I heard he didn't have his license," Kouandjio said. "It just opened up a whole wardrobe of jokes."
Kouandjio wouldn't reveal the jokes in question, saying they "weren't appropriate for the media," but he did tease that he'd only drive Warmack around if he asked nicely by saying please. "And then I'd think about it," he said.
Asked if getting in the passenger seat of Warmack's car after he got his license made him nervous, Kouandjio said, smiling, "He's a scary guy, so I only trust him if he drives really slow and careful. I just put my seatbelt on and close my eyes…Nah, it's not bad at all."
For the past four years, Fluker has been Warmack's main chauffeur since the two, who both came to Alabama in 2009, are best friends.
"I'd be like, 'Hey bro, you gotta learn how to drive, man," Fluker said. "He made me drive everywhere. I felt like I was James Bond in the car. But I mean, he learned eventually, and I'm proud of him for that."
Now Warmack is paying his dues by driving Fluker everywhere, the right tackle said.
So with this new skill still fresh, the question had to be asked: Can Warmack parallel park?
"God no," Fuker said, laughing. "God no. He cannot."

I like them both ---they are both beautiful. What about compromising and naming the baby Nora Genisis or Genisis Nora? Either way they are both beautiful and unique names.
Oh, I love your name! Nora is such a pretty name and I think it's just timeless and classic. I'd maybe go with your first name and compromise by having your husband pick the middle name. That is what my husband and I did with our son and it worked out well. :-)
thnk yall both..well i lik nora and now we are deciden on nora Alexandria luevano...she can b here any day now :)
Beautiful! SO PRETTY - make sure to put up pictures when she arrives!
So glad you were able to come to an agreement on the baby's name. Choosing a baby name is so hard sometimes, but I think you have a beautiful one! Let us know when she arrives!

Over the years, Southern dove hunts have grown and established deep traditions of heading out into the field on a late summer afternoon with a trusty shotgun and plenty of shells. Some dove hunts begin early in the morning long before the official shooting times. Hunters gather near the field to do a little grilling to welcome the start of the season.
Fellowship among hunters and story swapping is one segment of the hunt. Old hunting buddies get reacquainted, and new friends are made. There's more to a good old-fashioned dove hunt than just shooting.
Dove hunter safety
Dove shoots can range from just a few family and friends to more than 50 hunters on public and private hunts. The hunters position themselves around the edge of a field or tree line. They should allow plenty of room between hunters for shooting safely. Determine the location of other hunters around the field before the shooting begins.
The top safety rule is not to shoot or even think about shooting at a low-flying bird. Doves may dip and dive after being shot at, but hunters should avoid the temptation of taking a shot at a low bird over the field. A rule of thumb for many dove hunters is not to shoot at a bird below the 10 o'clock position.
Most dove hunting accidents occur when a hunter swings on a low flying bird. Make certain of your target area and what is beyond, shotgun pellets can travel farther than one might expect. Always unload your gun when crossing a fence or ditch or approaching other hunters. It is always safety first.
Hunters under 16 years old must stay within reach of the licensed hunter. The children can't be off by themselves.
The Alabama Department of Conservation sponsors youth hunts around the state. Youth hunters must be accompanied by a licensed adult hunter 25 years old or a parent/guardian and the adult is not allowed to shoot. Hearing and eye protection is recommended on any dove hunt.
Pre-hunt practice
For most dove hunters it may have been awhile since they have fired a shotgun. Before heading out to the dove field, you may want to brush up on your shooting skills and check the operation of your old scattergun. Sporting clays present the shooter with various targets under different shooting situations. Youth hunters should get in some practice shooting as well before opening day. Single shot or pump action shotguns are a safe bet for young hunters on the dove field. These guns are lighter and are easier for the youngsters to handle.
Migratory bird regulations apply for dove shooting. Make sure your gun's magazine is plugged or otherwise incapable of holding more than three shells at a time. Do not load your shotgun until you are in your hunting area and ready to hunt.
"Some dove hunters over choke their guns," said Richard Patty, owner of Shotgun Sports in Anniston. "The first part of the season an improved cylinder choke is best for early doves."
Patty said the tight full choke pattern is small for fast flying birds. After a couple of weeks into the season a dove shooter may want to move to a modified choke if the birds are flying higher. The best all-around shot sizes for doves are either No. 7 1/2 or No. 8 size shot.
Most dove hunters will carry a 12 gage shotgun for dove shooting. This is a popular gage for many hunters and various loads and shot sizes are readily available. However, a 20 gage with a modified choke will take its share of doves on opening day.
Pre-season scouting
Area farmers and landowners offer one day pay type dove hunts. Folks can show up ready to shoot or reserve a spot with a pre-paid ticket. Generally the hunt master will have ribbons tied to tree limbs or bushes marking the locations for hunters. Usually the spots are spaced out around the field to give everyone plenty of room.
The Alabama Cooperative Extension System has made changes concerning practices involving mourning dove management. There are no longer three planting zones for fall or winter plantings for wheat. Fall and winter wheat may now be top sown statewide from Aug. 1 to Nov. 30. A well-prepared seed bed is still required. Check the Alabama Hunting and fishing Digest for dove regulations.
Dove hunters should inspect and scout the field before they plan to hunt. Ask questions of how the field was prepared and what was planted in the field.
Dove day tips
Hunters may want to bring along a chair, stool or traditional dove bucket. These will allow the hunter to sit down for a rest or to help camouflage from the old eagle-eyed doves. Not only is camouflage important in dove hunting, but remaining still until the bird is in range will improve your chances of getting a shot.
Dove hunters with youth may want to wait a little later in the day if the weather is hot. The doves should be flying by mid-afternoon and the younger hunters won't have to endure the heat waiting on the birds to get going. A comfortable dove bucket or folding chair will be welcomed.
The weather can be hot on a dove field. Hunters will want pack in some cold water or soft drinks along with a few snacks. Also, some large freezer bags to put your doves and keep them in your cooler. Doves shot early in the afternoon could spoil in hot weather.
Some hunters use dogs to retrieve downed doves. Don't forget man's best friend will need a drink of water during the hunt especially on a hot afternoon. A bucket or some water bottles will be welcomed by your dog.
With an early opening day for doves this year, the action and the weather could be hot.

Hist. 80010- Literature of American History l
GC: R, 2:00-4:00 p.m., 5 credits, Prof. David Waldstreicher
This course introduces Ph.D. students to the historiography of the U.S. through the Civil War and is intended to prepare students for the First Written Examination. We will consider classic debates and texts as well as representative studies and classics in the making in a variety of subfields while each seminar member prepares a historiographical essay and presentation to be shared with the group on a specific topic of their choice. One of our primary concerns will be periodization. To what extent should the colonial period be considered a prologue to U.S. history? And on the other side of the nationhood divide, are there analyses that suggest a coherence or continuity to U.S. history beyond the peculiarities of the early republic or Civil War periods? What is the status of the Revolution and the Civil War, and the political history that drives or used to drive the narrative of U.S. history, amid transformations that might otherwise be seen as social, cultural, economic? Are there explanations that that cut across centuries, or stories that hold up in our time? What are the most important achievements of recent US historians, and what are the trends in the field now?
Hist. 75200- The Age of Revolutions
GC: T, 2:00-4:00 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Oakes
Hist. 75700- Aftermaths: World War to Postwar and Cold War
GC: T, 9:30-11:30 a.m., 3 credits, Prof. Nasaw
"Math": the old-English term for harvest.
When the cutting is done and the field is barren, there arises a new growth, stunted, near deformed, but alive and reaching upwards for the light. This is the aftermath.
We shall together explore and investigate the violent transformations wrought by the Second World War in Europe and the attempts of Americans and Europeans to make sense of their recent pasts and begin the difficult, but necessary work of reconstruction. The bulk of the reading will be secondary sources, though I intend to assign some contemporary novels, autobiographies, and films. The reading will be heavy at times—at least one book a week, often more than that. There may be a few brief writing assignments during the semester. For their final papers, students will prepare and write a lecture in which they introduce advanced undergraduates to the issues, themes, and dilemmas associated with the study of the immediate postwar period.
Readings will focus on Europe, east and west, and the United States. They may include secondary works such as:
Atina Grossmann, Jews, Germans, and Allies. Princeton University Press, 2007.
Tony Judt, Postwar. Penguin Press, 2005.
Ian Kershaw, The End: The Defiance and Destruction of Hitler's Germany, 1944-5. Penguin Press, 2011.
Thomas Childers, Soldier From the War Returning. Boston: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2009.
Alan Allport, Demobbed: Coming Home after the Second World War. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2009.
Arnold A. Offner, Another Such Victory: President Truman and the Cold War, 1945-1953. Stanford U.P., 2002.
Gerard Daniel Cohen, In War's Wake: Europe's Displaced Persons in the Postwar Order. Oxford U.P., 2012.
Ian Buruma, Year Zero: A History of 1945. Penguin Press, 2013.
Hist. 75900- Race, Punishment and Citizenship in US History
GC: W, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Khalil Gibran Muhammad
HIST78400 - Social Impacts of Science and Technology: Case Studies
GC: Tuesdays, 4:15-6:15 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Joseph Dauben
This course will study some of the great discoveries of science and inventions of technology that have changed the course of human history, with a view to assessing their origins, impact, and eventual consequences, both foreseen and unintended. Through individual case studies, from the invention of the wheel or the arch to atomic energy and space technology, using selected case studies across time and in particular parts of the world, or the contributions of individuals like Newton or Darwin, or by genres including film and fiction, this course will survey major scientific discoveries and technological inventions that have changed human history in significant ways. Reading assignments are given for every class, and students will make weekly seminar reports. There will be a series of short essays during the course and a final research paper (approximately 15-20 pages) due at the end of the semester.
Hist. 72200- Sex Society and Politics in Postwar Europe 1945-89
GC: T, 4:15 – 6:15 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Sneeringer
Students will explore in detail moments in the social history of postwar Europe, East and West, using sex and gender as key categories of analysis. We will explore how the story of Europe changes when sex and gender are the focus, re-examining such phenomena as postwar reconstruction, the Economic Miracle, consumer culture, daily life under communism, the rise of youth culture, "deviant" subcultures, second wave feminism, 1968, terrorism, and the revolutions of 1989.
Hist. 71000- The Politics of the Enlightenment
GC: R, 4:15 - 6:15 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Rosenblatt
Since the mid 20th century, the Enlightenment has been under attack for a variety of purported sins, including Eurocentrism, imperialism, racism, sexism, and proto-totalitarianism. In fact, Enlightenment-bashing has become such a popular sport that many intellectuals are now feeling the need to "rescue," "reclaim" and "redeem" it for the progressive goals they say were at its core. In this course, we will read texts by some of the most important political writers of the Enlightenment (Locke, Montesquieu, Rousseau, Ferguson, Jefferson and Wollstonecraft) with a focus on the following themes: the social contract and the role of government, property and commerce, race and slavery, women and religion. We will also read recent critiques and defenses of the Enlightenment, with a view to deciding for ourselves whether it is worth "reclaiming".
Hist. 72400- The Outcome of Classical German Philosophy: From Hegel to Adorno
GC: M, 4:15-6:15 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Wolin
In 1886, Friedrich Engels wrote a perfectly mediocre book, Ludwig Feuerbach and the Outcome of Classical German Philosophy, which nevertheless managed to raise a fascinating and important question that is still being vigorously debated today: how should we go about evaluating the legacy of German Idealism following the mid-nineteenth century breakdown of the Hegelian system? For Engels, the answer was relatively simple: the rightful heir of classical German philosophy was Marx's doctrine of historical materialism. But, in truth, Engels' response was merely one of many possible approaches. Nor would it be much of an exaggeration to claim that, in the twentieth-century, there is hardly a thinker worth reading who has not sought to define him or herself via a confrontation with the heritage of Kant and Hegel.
Our approach to this extremely rich material will combine a reading of the canonical texts of German Idealism (e.g., Kant and Hegel) with a sustained and complementary focus on major twentieth-century thinkers who have sought to establish their originality via a critical reading of Hegel and his heirs: Alexandre Kojeve, Georges Bataille, Jean Hyppolite, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Theodor Adorno, and Juergen Habermas. But we will also seek acknowledge the importance of the contemporary North American Hegel renaissance, as exemplified by the work of philosophers such as Robert Pippin, Michael Forster, Terry Pinkard, and Allen Wood.
In his "Discourse on Language" Foucault warns us appositely that, "Truly to escape Hegel involves an exact appreciation of the price we have to pay to detach ourselves from him. It assumes that we are aware of the extent to which Hegel, insidiously perhaps, is close to us; it implies a knowledge that permits us to think against Hegel, of that which remains Hegelian. Thus we have to determine the extent to which our anti-Hegelianism is possibly one of his tricks directed against us, at the end of which he stands, motionless, waiting for us." Foucault's insightful caveat will, in many respects, function as our interpretive watchword as we seek to decode and reconstruct the legacy of German Idealism and its most significant contemporary heirs.
Hist. 79200- Political History of European Jewry 1750-1850
GC: M, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Sorkin
This seminar focuses on the tumultuous period in European history (Enlightenment, industrial revolution, partitions of Poland, French revolution and Napoleon, Restoration, revolution of 1848) that fundamentally altered the Jews' status and is conventionally known as the era of "emancipation." We will study these development, especially the ideal of full equality yet, even more, the idea and practice of various forms of partial or conditional equality, through a combination of primary and secondary sources. Students will write a research paper on a relevant topic of their own choosing.
Hist. 80020- Literature of European History l
GC: T, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., 5 credits, Prof. Covington
This course will introduce first-year students to the rich and extensive literature of the late medieval and early modern period, from approximately 1300 to 1700. The centuries that comprise this period elicit some of the most heated debates undertaken by historians, across a range of subjects that include political developments and the emergence of state systems; economic and scientific revolutions; social and gender relations; religious movements and persecutions; technological innovations such as the invention of print; and the often-fraught encounters between cultures, civilizations and ideas. All of these themes will be explored in classic and more recent books that represent divergent perspectives, offering the student a foundation in understanding historical developments and the manner in which historians forge arguments and attempt to illuminate old documents and theses with new questions. In addition to providing preparation for the First (Written) Examination, the course will help students to understand the long reach of European history; to grasp the current state of scholarship in relationship to older and still-enduring texts and positions; conduct research by studying the works of masters; and learn how to formulate theses for their future work, by understanding how historians did so in the past.
Hist. 78110- Authority, Affinity and Resistance in the Construction of the Modern Middle East
GC: M, 4:15 – 6:15 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Davis
This course explores relationships between local, regional and outside constituencies which have framed Middle Eastern experience from the late eighteenth century onwards. The leading themes will be of empires and imperialism, in cultural, economic societal and political context, and the implications of such currents for understanding intra-regional, international and global relations historically. Each session will feature a discussion on a theme preceded by suggested readings, including course texts, published documents in translation, and assigned items of canonical and current academic journal literature. Students will each complete a research essay chosen from one of the major course topics, a number of smaller critical exercises, and a final examination.
Hist. 72700- Historical Perspectives on Africa
GC: Wednesdays 2:00-4:00 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Vaughan
In this course we take a historical perspective on a range of issues affecting sub-Saharan Africa today. We'll begin by examining the nature of political power in precolonial Africa and its relationship with demography, environment,the impact of the slave trade and its abolition. We'll then move on to address a range of topics including:
-the role of colonialism in transforming African economies and societies
- artistic production and historical knowledge
-the impact of the world religions
-currents in African political thought in the twentieth century
-aid and 'development', wealth and poverty
-population, environment and climate change
- gender and sexualities
- the new 'scramble' for African resources
Throughout the course we'll critically examine questions of the production of knowledge about Africa and ask what a longer-term historical perspective has to offer for analyses of critical contemporary issues.
Hist. 76910- Renaissance Atlantic: Movement, Power & Difference in the Making of Early Latin America
GC: Tuesdays 2:00-4:00 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Bennett
Hist. 72300- Quantitative Methods for Social Scientists and Humanists
GC: Mondays 4:15 – 6:15 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Bergad
This course was designed with a mind toward helping students with no background in statistical analysis develop a basic literacy of quantitative methods. Through computer-lab based tutorials students will gain proficiency in tools commonly used by the quantitative community such as SPSS Statistics, the U.S. Census Bureau's American Fact Finder, IPUMS datasets, Microsoft Excel, and ArcGIS mapping. This course will be especially useful for historians, anthropologists, and other social scientists looking to add a statistical component to their work that moves beyond basic secondary source data. Particular emphasis will be given to the ways social scientists and humanists can use data to formulate new perspectives on their research and challenge prevailing trends in their respective fields.
Hist. 84900- Seminar in American History l
GC: M, 2:00-4:00 p.m., 5 credits, Prof. Kessner
This seminar is designed to train incoming graduate students in the craft of historical research and writing. Over the course of the term, each student will formulate a research topic, prepare a bibliography of relevant primary and secondary sources, write an historiographic essay, and present and defend a formal project proposal for the substantial research paper that is to be completed in the second semester seminar. Weekly meetings will discuss common readings, share and critique written work and develop and refine the research proposals. We will also be devoting some time to methods and issues involved in undergraduate teaching.
Students will focus primarily on framing a topic and honing a well defined, focused and reasonable research question for their papers. The purpose of the collateral assignments is to help push this process forward. Thus, from the very beginning will be thinking about their research project, sampling secondary readings and investigating the availability of accessible sources.
Hist. 80900- Seminar in European and non-American History l
GC: Mondays 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., 5 credits, Prof. Alborn
This course seminar will provide an introduction to the nuts and bolts of historical research as well as an introduction to a number of electronic databases and metropolitan-area libraries, and a behind-the-scenes look at submitting an article for publication. In the context of this seminar students will be expected to formulate their own research paper topics and produce a paper prospectus, which they will have the opportunity to present to their peers for feedback and constructive criticism.

GC: T, 11:45-1:45 p.m., 4 credits, Prof. Wilson
This is a course in the major figures of early modern/Enlightenment philosophy up to and including Kant. Topics to be covered include the mechanical philosophy and the problem of force; the laws of nature; sensory qualities; the animal machine and the status of the soul; the nature of matter, teleology, the problems of generation and adaptation, the existence of species, and the relationship between God and Nature. Readings are drawn from primary and secondary sources. Independent research is required from all students.
Phil 77600, Justice, Memory, and Forgiveness
GC: M, 2:00-4:00 p.m., 4 credits, Prof. Blustein
Email address: firstname.lastname@example.com
This course addresses key issues in the theory and practice of what is known as transitional justice, a conception of justice associated with periods of upheaval and dramatic change in the political and social conditions of societies, from dictatorship to democracy and from war to peace. Though readings will be drawn from diverse fields, including political science, social anthropology, and international law, this is a course in moral and political philosophy, so emphasis will be placed on the conceptual and ethical issues raised by different options for responding to past atrocities and human rights violations.
Specific case studies will be used to illustrate different approaches to justice in transitional societies, including Argentina in the aftermath of the dirty war (1976-1983); post-apartheid South Africa; Rwanda after the genocide; and Eastern Europe following the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the successes and failures of each will be assessed. (The list may change.)
ASCP 81000, Introduction To American Studies: History And Methods
GC: Thursdays 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., 3 credits, Prof. Martin Burke
This course examines the intellectual and institutional histories of scholarship in American Studies, and the American Studies movement, from the middle decades of the twentieth century to the present. We will read and discuss classic and contemporary texts, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary works in cultural history, literary studies, and the social sciences. In particular, we will consider such models and metaphors as "culture," "civilization," "mind," "myth," and "national character," and how they have been employed by academics and social critics. The course is required for students in the American Studies Certificate Program, and also welcomes Americanists from the Ph.D. Programs in English, History, Art History, Music, Theater, Urban Education, and the M.A. Program in Liberal Studies.
