My apologies for being somewhat out of season and for that I was unable to reproduce the illustration found in the original version....• mistletoe •
Pronunciation: mi-sêl-to • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Noun, mass
Meaning: A parasitic shrub with thick evergreen stems and leaves, and waxy white berries, that grows in dead or dying sections of trees.
Notes: Over the year, mistletoe accumulates the magical power to grant anyone the right to kiss anyone else standing beneath it. How it does that, scientists have yet been able to determine. In England you are obliged to pluck a berry from the twig each time you take advantage of this power, thereby exhausting the twig bit by bit. In the US, we leave the berries up and indulge ourselves until there is no one left we haven't offended.
In Play: Although it began as a symbol of good luck, mistletoe today is ineluctably associated with holiday kissing: "This grapefruit makes me pucker more than a tree full of mistletoe." Unfortunately, its magical powers are non-selective, so you might hear something like this: "I would sooner eat the mistletoe than kiss him." Of course, you want to watch you language around the holidays. Avoid crude insults like, "Kiss my . . . whatever" in favor of more gentile suggestions like, "As I walk away, kindly note the mistletoe on my coattail."
Word History: This good word in Old English was mistiltán "mistletoe twig" from mistil, mistel "mistletoe" + tán "twig". The Old English word for mistletoe, 'mistel,' was probably a dimuntive of 'mist', a word it clearly is related to. It may also be related to missel of the missel thrush, a bird known to propagate mistletoe. "Toe" is clearly by folk etymology after the loss of tan in English—don't those little white berries look just like a baby's toes? The Celtic and Norse peoples considered mistletoe powerful magic. They hung sprigs over doors and elsewhere to protect themselves from evil and bring good fortune. If warring parties met in the forest and noticed mistletoe growing in a tree, according to tradition, they were sorely pressed to lay down their arms (though not kiss and make up).

Hide-and-seek in the animal kingdom
When you play hide-and-seek, you might scramble behind a tree or crawl under a bush where no one will see you. Animals hide in the wild, too. But they can't always find good hiding places. Instead, they hide in plain sight using camouflage. Camouflage is an animal's way of disguising itself.

Just about every animal at the Milwaukee County Zoo has some sort of camouflage. Take the jaguar. Why does it have those beautiful spots? Find out below when you make a jaguar-spot pillowcase.

BCG Therapy Safety
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I want to visit my mother, but her husband is undergoing BCG Vaccine treatment for bladder cancer. They are 87 and 85 years old, and do not use the best hygiene measures. I am concerned about my own health, as a 2-year breast cancer survivor. Am I at any risk while being in their home? Thank you for your help.
Michael Vozniak, PharmD, BCOP, Hematology/Oncology Clinical Pharmacy Specialist, responds:
BCG, or bacillus Calmette-Guerin, is a vaccine that is made from bacteria. It is a non-specific immunomodulator, which means that it stimulates the body's immune system. BCG has shown positive re sults when instilled into the bladders of certain patients with superficial bladder cancers who are felt to be at high risk of disease recurrence after surgical treatment alone. Superficial bladder cancers are only a few cell layers thick and are confined to the inner lining of the bladder, and so the BCG (or other drugs instilled directly into the bladder) can be absorbed into the superficial layers of the bladder and thus should reach all of the cancer cells.
BCG is placed into the bladder using a catheter, and left in the bladder for up to 2 hours. The catheter is left in place and clamped off to allow the bladder to be adequately exposed to the BCG. After two hours, the clamp is removed and the BCG is drained out. Because it is a live vaccine, it is recommended to pour liquid bleach into the toilet for up to 6 hours after receiving the medication in order to kill the vaccine. Pour 2 cups of bleach into the toilet and allow it to sit for 15 minutes before flushing. The patient should drink plenty of fluid in the hours/day after the treatment to flush the bladder. The treatment is given once weekly for 6 weeks, and may be repeated if necessary in the future.
Of note, men having this treatment can pass on BCG to their partners during sexual intercourse. To protect the partner from exposure to BCG, patients should not have sex for 48 hours after each treatment. A condom should be used at other times during the six weeks of treatment and for six weeks after treatment has ended.
There should be no risk to you if the bathroom is cleaned the day of administration, or alternatively, if you did not share a bathroom.
A good resource on bladder cancer treatments:

Latest News
South Florida Jews continue tradition of volunteering on Christmas Day
Why was Aaron Niskin, 26-year-old Florida International University student, playing "Jingle Bells'' on an acoustic guitar for sick kids and their parents at Miami's Ronald McDonald House on Christmas Day?
He shrugged like a Borscht Belt comic, then true to the stereotype, answered the question with a question.
"I'm Jewish. Why not?''
It's the same reason that a small army of men, women and kids signed up for the Greater Miami Jewish Federation's increasingly popular Christmas Volunteer Day. They passed out toys at the Chapman Partnership's downtown Miami shelter, served a lasagne, salad and brownies lunch to Ronald McDonald guests, and cooked a hot holiday meal at the Salvation Army.
Niskin volunteered with his mother, Debbie Niskin, of Miami Beach — mother of four, grandmother of seven — who thinks that for those who don't celebrate Christmas, "It's nice for you to take the place of someone who could be home with their families.''
As Jews, added her friend, Rita Restler, "It's in us to help.''
Indeed, both faith and tradition dictate that Jews give charity — not just money, but time and effort — as a way to repair a troubled world.
Dozens of volunteers, including several entire families, arrived early Tuesday morning with hundreds of gifts at the Homeless Assistance Center, 1550 N. Miami Ave.
Among them: three generations of Rostons from Pinecrest. Dylan, 12, and Zachary, 14, piled a conference table high with new basketballs, footballs, soccer balls, models and stuffed animals that the family bought.
"I want everybody to enjoy themselves,'' Dylan said.
His father, attorney Carl Roston, said the project "gives the kids a little perspective on how fortunate they are.''
Added his wife, Wendy: "This teaches them about giving back, and the importance in seeing how giving puts a smile on their faces.''
On the next table over, other volunteers set up a frost-your-own cookie station. Elsewhere, several "tweens'' helped little girls make woven rubber-band bracelets on plastic looms.
"Giving back'' seemed an almost universal motivation.
Wine buyer Melanie Uchin and husband Adam, brought son Benjamin, 15, down from Weston, even though Adam, 48, recently lost his job.
Even so, he said, he's got so much more than the parents whose children have no homes.
"I still have a loving family and a roof over my head,'' he said. "For us, this is one little setback.''
Not so for many of the shelter residents.
Chantanell Williams, 36, said she moved into the shelter two months ago with her children, ages 4-17, who were happily playing with a Rubik's Cube and a wooden peg game called Road Race.
A temporary school-bus driver, Williams said that when she doesn't work, she can't pay for an apartment.
She wasn't sure why strangers had come to give her kids presents, but "we appreciate whatever they give.''
When she learned that the volunteers didn't observe Christmas, but wanted others to be able to, she broke into a grin.
"That's real nice,'' she said. "I like that.''
Many volunteer parents said it wasn't too early for their young children to learn the lesson of giving.
Amy Pinzur of Aventura, a third-year volunteer, brought daughter Maia, 8, who helped make rubber-band bracelets.
She was there, Maia said, "to make children feel good.''
The bracelet looms belonged to Julia Bernstein, 12, whose mother, Nancy Bernstein, said it was Julia's idea to bring them — and to leave some behind.
They were rewarded with a handwritten thank-you note, in crayon, from a little girl.
Michael Litel, a marketing-services company executive, said he was participating for the third year.
"In today's world, with all that's going on, we all have a responsibility to help out,'' said Litel, 57, a Broward resident. "It's the right thing to do.''
"Not everyone gets to live in a gated community,'' added lawyer Jeremy Ben-David, 33, acting as captain of the dining-room serving line. "There are other things going on in this world.''
There were more volunteers than tasks, so he urged everyone to "try to stay busy,'' putting up decorations, sprinkling wrapped candies on the tables, escorting diners to their seats.
"People are in need,'' he said. "Whatever little I can do makes them happy.''

Asoka and the Missions Home Page[The Passing of King Asoka]
[from XIX. The Journey of the Great Bodhi Tree]
[The Nuns and the Nunneries]
118-120 & 166-189 ≠ Mhv 68-85
Near the Lord's Great Bodhi Tree, through the wonder of being near the flag of the true Dhamma preached in the lovely words of the land of Laṅkā, Queen Anulā, with five hundred women and together with another five hundred women of the harem received the going-forth in the presence of the Elder Saṅghamittā, and those one thousand nuns, after developing insight, in no long time It seems to me, that as Arahat Saṅghamittā herself had received the Sikkhamāna training for two years, that she would have asked Anulā and the others to keep it too, so no long time here should probably include that period. 01 attained the state of Worthiness.
* * *
The Great Elder Saṅghamittā lived in the Nunnery known as the Lay-Womens' Monastery together with her Community. She made there three dwelling places which were considered the foremost. In Mhv it mentions that she built twelve dwelling places in all.02
Previously Queen Anulā had heard a Dhamma teaching in the Elder Mahinda's presence, understood the Truths, donned the yellow robes, undertook the ten precepts and made her dwelling in the home of the minister named Dolaka. It appears from this that the Lay-Women's Monastery had previously been Doloka's residence. Exactly how we reconcile this with the statement in XVIII v.12 that the King had built the Nunnery I don't know. It may be that the traditions were not properly harmonised at this point.03
Afterwards, with the coming of the Elder Nun to the Island of Laṅkā, these three foremost palaces: Small Chapter, Great Chapter and Increasing Splendour were made by the Lord of the World.
For the benefit of his retinue and many others in the palace, when the Great Bodhi Tree was brought in the ship, the Ruler of the World had the mast placed in the house named the Small Chapter, the sail was established in the Great Chapter house, and then the rudder was placed in the Increasing Splendour house. Dr. Hema Goonatilake, in her paper, The Unbroken Lineage of the Sri Lankan Bhikkhuni Sangha from 3rd Century B.C.E. to the Present, makes the interesting point that these nunneries are the first museums we hear of in history.04
The Lord of the World, who was of such a kind: endowed with virtue and respect for the Three Treasures, paid lifelong respect to the Bodhi Tree and caused all the places in the Isle to be prepared, gaining a famous name, lasting even until today.
The King's state elephant, which wandered wherever it liked, stayed on one side of the city in a cool spot in a mountain grotto, near to a Kadambapuppha bush, where it grazed.
Often people journeyed there, and after seeing the elephant, and saying: "This elephant delights in the Kadamba Grove," fed it with rice and fattened up the elephant, and that place came to be known by the name of the Measure of Grain. Contrary to Geiger, who interprets ālhaka as meaning post (a meaning not found in the Dictionaries), this story indicates that the reason for the name is that the elephant was given a full measure of food by the visitors to the place.05
One day the elephant didn't take even a morsel, and the King asked the Elder who brought faith to the Island the reason. "Near the Kadambapuppha bush site he desires that a Sanctuary be built," the Great Elder said to the Great King.
The King, who was ever delighting in the welfare of the people, quickly built a Sanctuary there together with a relic, and a Sanctuary room.
The Great Elder Saṅghamittā, who longed for an empty abode, as the dwelling place she lived in was crowded, seeking the benefit of the Dispensation, and the welfare of the nuns, being wise and desiring another Nunnery went to that lovely Shrine House, which was comfortably secluded, and spent the day there, she who had faultless skill in dwellings.
The King, after going to the first Nunnery in order to worship the Elder Nun heard that she had left the place. He departed from the Nunnery, arrived near the Shrine House and worshipped the Great Elder.
After exchanging greetings with the Elder Saṅghamittā, understanding her intention, the Guardian of the World, who was a wise man, skilled in intentions, a hero of great power, had a delightful Nunnery built near the Sanctuary House.
The Nunnery was built near where the elephant took his measure of grain therefore it became well-known as the Elephant's Measure monastery.
The good friend, This is a play on her name, which means friend of the community.06 the Great Elder Saṅghamittā, who was greatly wise, then made her dwelling in that delightful Nunnery.
Thus benefiting the world of Laṅkā, and accomplishing the development of the Dispensation, the Great Bodhi Tree, endowed with various wonders, remained for a long time, Indeed it still remains there to this day, being the oldest historical tree in the world.07 in the Great Cloud Grove, in the delightful Island of Laṅkā.

Atlanta airport celebrates its first Airbus A380 route
The world's busiest airport now has regular service on the world's biggest commercial passenger plane.
That's after Korean Air inaugurated A380 service this week between Atlanta and Seoul on its Airbus A380 superjumbo jets.
The airline's first A380 flight to Atlanta arrived this past Sunday. But airport and airline officials saved the official welcoming fanfare for Friday morning, when Korean's A380 received a water-cannon salute (see photo) and ribbon-cutting ceremony upon arriving in Atlanta. A Korean Air spokeswoman tells Today in the Sky that airport and airlines officials opted to stage the celebration Friday, instead of during the Labor Day holiday weekend.
Korean Air has been flying to Atlanta since December 1994, but has decided to upgauge its flights on the route to its bigger A380s.
"The arrival of the Airbus A380 underscores the prominence of Atlanta as a gateway city and a competitor in global markets," Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed says in a release. "We're pleased that Korean Air has chosen to introduce travelers to its A380 service to Seoul."
ARCHIVES: Freshly painted: Korean Air shows off its first Airbus A380 (Feb. 2011)
LOCAL REPORT: Atlanta celebrates A380 super-jumbo jet (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
To accommodate the plane's size, the Atlanta airport had to widen two runways and three taxiways by a total of more than 855,000 square feet. The airport also had to install new passenger loading bridges that could accommodate the double-decker plane.
"We've spent several months making a number of enhancements to airport facilities in preparation for the arrival of the world's largest aircraft," Louis Miller, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport's general manager, says in the statement. "We see these improvements as part of the growth process inherent in being the world's busiest airport."
With its arrival, Atlanta notes it becomes only the fourth U.S. city to offer A380 service to Asia. A number of other U.S. airports, however, host at least seasonal A380 service on trans-Atlantic routes. Among those are New York JFK, Washington Dulles and Miami.
Korean Air initially will fly the A380 three times a week between Atlanta and Seoul, with a brief cessation of A380 service during the second half of September. The A380 flights will resume in early October and will become daily on Oct. 27, a Korean Air spokeswoman tells Today in the Sky.
"Our A380 flight is a game changer for the region," John Jackson, Korean Air's VP of marketing for the Americas, says in a statement. "We now offer service to Asia from Atlanta that no one else can meet. Our aircraft is roomier, quieter and more comfortable than any other serving the Southeast. Our traffic between Atlanta and Seoul has been growing at 10% per year and it makes good sense to invest in markets that are showing long-term growth."
ARCHIVES: Korean Air promises 'the most spacious A380 anywhere' (Oct. 2010)
ARCHIVES: World's 'most-spacious A380' now flying at LAX (Oct. 2011)
Korean Air boasts that its superjumbo A380s offer the most spacious seating of any carrier flying the jet. With just 407 seats on its A380s, Korean Air says that "provides more space per passenger," especially as "compared to more than 450 seats on other carriers' (A380) planes."
Korean Air's A380s feature 12 Kosmo First Class suites, 94 lie-flat sleeper seats and 301 coach seats.

StarCraft 2 demo replaced by 'Starter Edition'
Blizzard has replaced its original StarCraft 2 demo with a new "Starter Edition," which features four single-player missions, two challenge missions, and a number of other components.
Today, Blizzard replaced its demo for StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty from its website, replacing it with a new trial based on a similar platform as its recent changes to the World of Warcraft trial.
StarCraft 2: Starter Edition includes the game's first four missions, whereas the original demo only featured three. The Starter Edition also gives players access to the first two challenges in the game.
According to the announcement post on Blizzard's official site, the missions included in the demo are "Mar Sara 1-3 and the choice to embark on Tychus's first mission or Dr. Hansen's first mission."
Like the original demo, players are restricted to the Terran race in skirmish play against the AI. For the first time, players can test the waters online against other players in a rotating set of custom maps.
The current set of maps include Xel'Naga Caverns, Shattered Temple, Discord IV, and High Orbit.
Unlike the original demo, however, the "Starter Edition" of StarCraft 2 requires a Battle.net account to access. The Starter Edition also requires constant connection to the internet.
Blizzard notes: "Any campaign progress and achievements you earn while playing StarCraft II: Starter Edition are automatically saved to your Battle.net account, and will carry over should you ever upgrade from the Starter Edition to the full version of StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty."
The original demo is still available for download from Shacknews.

Special Edition Podcast
Show Notes
For a long time no one seemed to know what to make of this film. A super hero movie? Starring Seth Rogan?
Well, here we are.
We've seen a bunch of trailers released and despite the naysayers I never saw anything but a fun action comedy. I had faith. And then a funny thing happened, lots of other people started having faith too. In fact, all I read this week on the industry blogs and in the magazines was that the buzz on The Green Hornet among test audiences was strongly positive. Then I started seeing people I knew who went to early screenings posting positive reviews on Twitter. Will the early word that the film is indeed a fun action comedy pan out? We'll see. I have to say that a film directed by Michel Gondry and written by the two guys who wrote Superbad shouldn't surprise anyone when it's good.
The iFanboy staff will be going to see this one as soon as possible so we can bring you a Special Edition Podcast this Sunday.
Are you going to see it? Possibly! So let's talk about it!
If you haven't seen the movie yet be forewarned — there be SPOILERS ahoy! So don't scroll down any further if you are sensitive to that kind of thing.
Get Involved
Doing the podcast is fun and all, but let's be honest, listening to the 3 of us talk to each other can get repetitive, so we look to you, the iFanboy listeners to participate in the podcast! "How can I get in on the fun?" you may ask yourself, well here's how:
- E-Mail us at email@example.com with any questions, comments or anything that may be on your mind.
Please don't forget to leave your name and where you're writing from and each week, we'll pick the best e-mails to include on the podcast!

The Truth About Going Gluten-Free
Whether prescribed to by a doctor or simply by choice, it seems that more and more people are adopting a gluten-free diet. With an increasing number of products on the shelf, it is getting easier to go gluten-free--but is it right for everybody?
Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye and barley that some people cannot properly digest due to abnormal immune response. After blood tests and intestinal biopsies are performed , they are diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Once diagnosed you must avoid eating gluten for the rest of your life.
Even if you need to eliminate gluten from your intake, you can still eat a balanced diet from all the food groups. There are plenty of wheat alternatives to fill up your "Grain" requirement (ex. rice, buckwheat, corn, quinoa, potato flour, soy flour). You will even find gluten-free cake, muffin and pancake mixes on the shelf of your mainstream grocery store.
Many people think eating gluten-free will mean you'll lose weight -- that is false, you still have to make good, healthy choices about what you eat. If you are losing weight on a gluten-free diet you should meet often with your GI doctor and your dietitian because it could be a sign of intestinal damage or presence of gluten still in your diet.
The symptoms of celiac disease vary widely and can often be confused with symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. A doctor might suggest someone try a gluten-free diet when they report chronic gastrointestinal distress. While it's pretty easy to switch to gluten-free, be sure to test for celiac disease before eliminating gluten (especially if you have a family history of the disease) or the test cannot be performed accurately.
If you choose to eat gluten-free even when it's not medically necessary there is no difference in how your overall diet should look. You still will need about 5-6 ounces of "Grains" a day followed by the appropriate amount of fruit, vegetables, meat/beans, dairy and oils. You may find you enjoy the gluten-free way of eating because many of these foods are less manipulated and contain less additives. For others, it may just be a fad-diet.

Carly Eisenbrandt
Class of 2014
Major/Minor: Art/Business Management
Campus Involvement
- Peer Mentor
- Member of Women's Varsity Lacrosse
My name is Carly Eisenbrandt and I will be a senior this year. Before coming to WAC, I spent my first fall semester of college at High Point University. During high school, I really was not interested in the stressful search for college and my priority was lacrosse. Originally, I wanted a small school, but at the same time, I wanted to play Division I lacrosse. With the luring incentives to attend a school that provided a high level of lacrosse along with the ease of committing the summer going into my senior year, I decided High Point was the place for me. That fall semester I learned a lot about myself. I found myself consumed with lacrosse with no time for any school involvement. I wanted to focus more on my academics but also wanted a competitive college sport. School involvement has always been important to me. With lacrosse, I was unable to get involved as much as I wanted. At the same time, I knew if I quit my sport, I would no longer enjoy any part of High Point.
Transferring seemed like such a hard decision to make, but when I realized how unhappy I was, I knew that it was time to branch out and look at other schools. So when winter break came to an end, I decided to revisit the Eastern Shore. Needless to say, I fell back in love with this school. I already had a connection to the school (my brother graduated from WAC), and walking on campus gave me an instant feeling of being home. There is a sense of community, not only with the students, but also with the faculty members. I knew with a smaller school, I would be able to really focus on my academics and make great relationships with my professors. I also would be able to become involved on campus in addition to participating in a competitive sport. When I arrived to campus for the spring semester not only my lacrosse team but also everyone on campus welcomed me. One of the greatest characteristics of WAC is our small size. The students are your friends and your family. It allows you to find your closest friends but also allows you to meet and get to know so many different people on campus. The most challenging part of transferring is the fear of finding friends so late in the game. The students at WAC are so welcoming and always looking for new friends. I was astonished by how nice people were when I first started school. The best thing about it is that you have the opportunity to get involved with clubs, sports, or any other activities. They all lead you to new friendships and new discoveries about yourself. My biggest advice would be to not be afraid to put yourself out there. Don't be afraid to get involved right off the bat and to socialize.
I started just as a member of the Women's Lacrosse team my freshman year. By sophomore year, I became a Peer Mentor and a member of the Student Affairs Committee. I started as a business major, but through lectures and other activities, I changed my major to art and kept business as a minor. Having these diverse extracurricular activities allows you to find out what you want to study and brings personal growth into your life, just as it did for mine. Like I said before, my biggest advice to every student is to get involved! It is so incredibly easy at Washington College. Taking the risk and transferring to Washington College was one of the best decisions I made in my life. If I hadn't made that crazy decision to transfer, I would not be where I am today!

|This project brings together the histories of subjectivity, early modern drama and economics. Moving across the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, I chart a significant shift in subjectivity and social relations that connects the individual, art, and the market. Indeed, as the commercial market takes off, poets begin writing to please (and edify) for profit (financial gain). That is to say, the struggle between the Roman and Greek poetics is complicated by the change in "profit;" the "old profit" means education and the "new profit," even as it demands pleasure for success, also entails financial gain. Recent criticism focusing on economics emphasizes the materiality of the stage. Whereas the mind is often secondary to the material in such critiques, the development of the mind occurs alongside the development of the body. In fact, early modern poets get to the mind through the body, and get to the body of the viewer or reader through the mind. The fact that audience members see bodies acting out other bodies and persons on stage furthers the distinction between bodies and selves. At the time, the very idea of the self or even the soul as separate from the body was troubling. On the stage, then, and in early modern play texts, I argue the expanding early modern subject is made visible as a body in flux.; I begin my first chapter with the early modern theatre before the advent of the commercial market. I study plays performed within schools and the inns of court – Gammer Gurton's Needle (1562-3), Gorboduc (1562), and Roister Doister (1562) which are highly invested in "old profit," or profit in the sense of education. Nevertheless, the bawdy bodily pleasure involved as a means of diversion in these texts highlights the division between classes, genders, and even social concepts like love and marriage.; In my second chapter, I argue the commercial theater proffers a space and play of "new profit" that, while still grounded in instruction, is ambiguous in its increase of pleasure and subsequent criticism of itself and its audience. I argue that in Shakespeare's plays we can read through material objects and their constructed emotional power to arrive at the individual and the staging of the self as disavowal and discourse. Conceptually, I map my own discourse through Shakespeare's plays The Merchant of Venice (1596-7), As You Like It (1598-1600), and Twelfth Night, or What You Will (1600) by first situating their physical settings and the recent critical reception. I then explore: the commodification of characters and cultural concepts through coins; shapeshifting, as represented with the purse; the recurrent imagery of circumcision and the cutting away of men. In exchange for the coin passed to gain entry, the playing company provides the viewer the experience of pleasure, of feeling. Market logic impacts early modern culture in corporeal ways as an emerging discourse that rejects marriage solely along class lines. The residual discourse of male-male love is being rejected and replaced with a romantic love ground in instability and uncertainty. And finally, the emerging discourse of shape-shifting bodies provides solutions to the problems of marriage against class lines, at the same time that it re-affirms class division.; On the other hand, in my third chapter, on Jonson's Volpone (1606), Epicene (1609), The Alchemist (1610) and Bartholomew Fair (1614), instability creates room for pain, penetration, movement and liberation. The emerging discourse is the moving body, a body that changes from one thing to another, in the name of profit and pleasure. For Jonson, the space of drama is the social and interactive experience of the stage, and the private, imaginary space of the play text. Time is a concept Jonson wields as an exchange; in return for admission, Jonson asks not only that his audience stay and enjoy his work, but also that they re-experience the play above and beyond its "two short hours." The plays and the people playing on stage, as well as the audience on occasion, are thus commodified. Moreover, Jonson crafts subjects in the experience of the stage, even as he critiques them. The animosity and excoriation we feel in Jonson's plays stems from Jonson's ambivalence around the "new profit." All of Jonson's work, particularly through the emerging discourse, demonstrates a newfound reliance upon individuals as self-governing subjects seeking financial gain. Jonson's use of meta-narration reflects his own art, subjectivity, and the market as the struggle that persists to this day.; Parliament closed the theater in 1642, but the reopening of the commercial theater and the return of the monarchy after the civil war, brought about important changes. At the end of the early modern poetic market – from William Davenant's The Man's the Master: A Comedy (1669) to Margaret Cavendish's closet drama The Convent of Pleasure (1668) and Milton's closet drama Samson Agonistes (1671) – the problem of the body becomes a subjective and internalized process of self discovery. Re-imagined off-stage and through the process of reading, early modern subjects envision bodies in action. Restoration theater, with its privileging of class in the audience, coupled with the emphasis upon new profit and pleasure on stage, attempts to fix the body as demonstrative of class and worth, even as the new drama relies entirely upon adaptation of foreign work and translation of earlier English plays.; Advancing the new economic criticism by employing my own sort of cultural materialism grounded in the critical work of Raymond Williams, I flesh out the dominant, emerging, and residual discourses developing amidst an early modern culture in transition. Moving away from economic analysis invested in objectification, I argue that gender as instability allows early modern subjects to negotiate class issues. Across the period, the body itself is the site wherein cultural anxiety is performed. I draw on early modern literary criticism to demonstrate the contemporary engagement with these issues of market culture, material, and the changing early modern mind. The generic manipulations at the end of the seventeenth century bring us to the long-eighteenth century and eventually on to the appearance of the novel, a form particularly apt for commodification. What makes the English early modern stage so important to us today, above and beyond its function as the background of the Renaissance and humanist movements, is its relevance to our continued struggle with art and capitalism, our unceasing complication of human beings as both subjects and consumers.

Prostate Cancer Treated With External Beam Radiotherapy
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
I am requesting information on prostate cancer. I had surgery in March of 1993. The doctor was unable to get to the gland to remove it. He took out the lymph nodes and they were negative. I had 39 radiation treatments. My follow-up results were good.
I then progressed from 3 month exam intervals to 6 months, and am now at 1 year intervals. Please tell me if this seems like a normal course of treatment.
Thank You
Neha Vapiwala, MD Senior Editor of OncoLink and Assistant Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania responds:
Dear OncoLink Reader:
Thank you for your question.
The recommended follow-up regimen for prostate cancer patients who were treated with external beam radiotherapy is similar to what you describe. Typically, you are evaluated by your physician every three months for the first year or two, then every four to six months for another year or two, and then yearly from then on, assuming there are no concerning findings at any of the regular visits. During these follow-ups, your radiation oncologist will perform a complete physical examination, including a digital rectal exam on which the prostate can be palpated for any new nodules or growths. In addition, a serum PSA (prostate specific antigen) level will be measured around the time of each visit. The PSA blood test and physical exam will detect the large majority of recurrences. At this time, there is no proven beneficial role for regular CT scans, MRIs, or PET scans in the routine follow-up of treated prostate cancer patients. If there is a specific complaint or a suspicious finding on digital rectal exam, a CT scan or MRI of the pelvis may be ordered to help evaluate further.

HILLSVILLE — An Aug. 17 ribbon cutting will launch the official opening of the Hale-Wilkinson-Carter Home at 3 p.m., according to foundation officials.
The historic home at 205 N. Main St. has been bustling with activities this spring and summer, according to the Carter Home Foundation's Elizabeth Huff.
Visitors and tourists from far and near have come to see and learn about the home and its history.
Local organization and club meetings, weddings, class reunions and receptions have been held at the Carter Home in the past few months, she said.
The foundation and its program manager also hosted the Virginia State Welcome Center directors and senior church groups.
The downtown celebrations and cruise-ins have brought in monthly financial support through food sales, Huff said. And, an art show has been held during each cruise-in on the home's porch, sponsored by the Hillsville Civic Association.
"The public is invited to attend this ribbon cutting, enjoy refreshments and celebrate this important even in the official opening of the Hale-Wilkinson-Carter Home," Huff said.

⁃ "The Saddharmapundarikasutra in Chinese History and Its Significance in the 21st Century"
⁃ "Is Tendai Buddhism Relevant to The Modern World?"
You may already well know these but because I found them and read them in the same 24 hours they seemed to malke sense together and so I thought I'd share. These are 2 articles about integrating the Lotus Sutra and modernity. Both I think have interesting approaches to reinventing thinking about the Lotus Sutra and its presentation to maintain the meaning.
Both provide a different approach to presenting a survey course to the doctrines, texts and chief leaders and history of Tendai Buddhism as centered on the Lotus Sutra.
I think "Significance" is aimed at identifying the attitudes you yourself need towards keeping the meaning alive. It understands that just as much as any ideas there may be in ancient forms of Buddhism or modern thought, it's really the amount of openness in us that will determine the success of a project to bring the Lotus Sutra into the 21st century. He identifies the core ideas of the Lotus Sutra as a 1st step in getting the ball rolling.
"Relevant" presents a psychological comparison that isn't trivial, because he goes beyond simply comparing a system of old religion to a system of new psychology to identifying the core shared approach used by both in using a human "developmental" context for a healing and spiritual path - a method which could be modified and applied by you taking whatever factors you think are more important into account.

Re: INTEGRATING THE LOTUS SUTRA AND MODERNITY
I particularly like the Chappell article.
Re: INTEGRATING THE LOTUS SUTRA AND MODERNITY
I've read the second article but have to say I got lost a couple of times. I'm not much of reader and being dislexic I found it a bit weighty.
I'll print off the first artcle to read over at a later date. Thank you for that

Habanero Recipes
Spicy Butter Recipe (with Habanero Chiles)
We picked the last Habanero peppers yesterday, officially marking the end of our vegetable season. I feel a little bad about that seeing as folks on the East Coast are already dealing with snow. Sorry! I think I've mentioned that due to a very frustrating gopher infestation, my husband Lulu planted mostly everything in planters this year. We had one planter full of Habanero chiles, which are famous for being the hottest peppers in the world. If you've never gotten a chance to experience Habanero peppers, they are extremely fragrant and fruity. The flavor is almost indescribable, as is the heat follows. Our plants were prolific; three habanero plants produced over 20 cups of peppers! Of course, having that many peppers forced us to get creative with how we used them, which was a lot of fun.
The first application we came up with was a flavored butter, which oddly wasn't all that spicy to my taste. I think the casein in the butter neutralizes a lot of the heat. Trust me, if I can enjoy it, you can too. I've been married for many years now, and before, I couldn't bare the spiciness of black pepper. I'm sure it helps marrying into an Indian family, but this Habanero chile butter captures that intoxicating fragrance without being overly spicy.
I pulsed red Habanero chiles with garlic into a purée and mixed them into soft butter. I measured 10 grams for a mild butter, 20 grams for medium and 40 grams for extra spicy. You could reduce the ratio, depending on how strong you want the heat. This butter is lovely as a spread for sandwiches, in pasta or as a garnish for a juicy steak. I especially like it on whole grain bagels.
I'll slowly post all the other ways we put these peppers to use. Try them if you dare!

Chili Garlic Sauce (Tuong Ot)
As promised, this is the recipe of tướng ớt, literally spicy dipping sauce in Vietnamese. It's ultra easy. This sauce is great for dipping and stir-frying. The last time I used this condiment was for my father-in-law's favorite Asian dish, green beans and tofu stir fry.
It contains the bare minimum ingredients: something sweet, something savory and of course a ton of spiciness. This blend has a delicious garlic flavor.
Every year, my husband Lulu plants an incredible amount of all sorts of chiles. My parents-in-law loves extremely spicy food. Before I got married, I hated spicy food. To be honest, I could barely handle a dash of black pepper, let alone a jalapeno or heaven forbid a habanero. I guess marrying into an Indian family helped my taste buds. I've gotten better. I'm learning.

The column this week can be one of the most important, yet can be painful if you are or know someone who feels, "I just don't fit in ... they just don't like me."
Having been an elementary teacher for one year before I became a school psychologist in the public school system, I experienced some of the visual pains that were displayed in some of the faces of some of the nicest kids I worked with. I felt some of them when I was a child, as well.

Swansea head to Stamford Bridge for Wednesday night's first leg seeking to reach a major Wembley final for the first time in their 100-year history. Club-record signing Hernandez, bought from Valencia for £5.55million, is likely to return to the starting line-up in London, along with top scorer Michu and Ashley Williams, after recovering from a thigh problem.
And if Swansea are to give themselves a chance of winning the tie, Hernandez knows just how crucial it will be to stop Chelsea's creative fulcrum. He said: "Mata is a big friend of mine. He was my room-mate at Valencia for two years. We used to eat lunch and dinner together too. He's a good player."
He added: "I'm happy that I can play against him and Chelsea but he is a player we need to stop. I remember he missed the Premier League game against us because he was injured, but he is back now and is an important player for Chelsea. He won't be easy to stop but I have confidence in the Swansea defence."
But winger Hernandez, 27, hopes Swansea's good record against the Premier League's big guns will stand them in good stead for the task ahead.
"It's an important game for the club. To play at Wembley in a final would be great," he said. "We have two matches against Chelsea and it will be difficult. Chelsea are a good team and the last winners of the Champions League, but I think we can beat them in Swansea.
"We've won at Arsenal and beaten Manchester City and Liverpool at the Liberty Stadium before so we know we can play well. If we score in the first match then it is possible to win in the second one."
Chelsea are the favourites to lift the trophy, with Aston Villa and Bradford contesting the other semi-final. Failure to do so would heap the pressure on interim manager Rafael Benitez, who was an unpopular appointment among Chelsea fans.
And Swansea manager Michael Laudrup has told the Spaniard he must win silverware to get the fans on his side, saying: "He (Benitez) has so much experience. I think he tells his players that what happens in the stands, happens. They must concentrate on playing. You can't change the mind of some people.
"But I still think that with results and more results, suddenly you get more and more respect and less will be shouting bad things about the manager. If everybody in football says you are the favourite you have to accept that. That is part of being a member of a big club."

When was the last time you laughed really hard - a hearty, sidesplitting belly laugh that suddenly grabbed you and sent you reeling out of control? Or you laughed so hard that you forgot what triggered it, leaving you laughing without reason?
Modern science is beginning to confirm that this kind of laughter is not only enjoyable, it's also health-promoting. Laughter is an invigorating tonic that heightens and brightens mood, gently releasing us from tensions and social constraints. Humor offers a valuable perspective on ourselves and our world. What strikes us as funny is usually triggered by a mismatch between what we expect and what we see.
Laughter is an affirmation of our humanness, a face-saving way to express our anxieties, fears, and other hidden emotions to others. It breaks the ice, builds trust, and draws us together into a common state of well-being. Entertainer Victor Borge once quipped, "Humor is the shortest distance between two people."
Humor may be one of our best antidotes to stressful situations. When confronted with a threatening situation, animals have two choices: they can flee, or they can fight. We humans have a third alternative: to laugh. By seeing the humor in a stressful situation, we may be able to change our response to the threat. Humor allows us to distance ourselves and replace paralyzing feelings of anxiety with mirth. When we laugh, we simply cannot be worrying deeply at the same time.
What the Research Shows
Laughter is called "inner jogging." A robust laugh gives the muscles of your face, shoulders, diaphragm, and abdomen a good workout, and sometimes even your arms and legs. Heart rate and blood pressure temporarily rise, breathing becomes faster and deeper, and oxygen surges throughout your bloodstream.
Your muscles go limp and your blood pressure may fall, leaving you in a mellow euphoria. A good laugh can burn up as many calories per hour as brisk walking. During a good hearty laugh your brain orchestrates hormonal rushes that rouse you to a high-level alertness and numb pain. Researchers speculate that laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the brain's opiates. This may account for the pain relief that accompanies laughter.
Norman Cousins claimed to nurse himself back to health from a crippling arthritic condition, in part with old tapes of "Candid Camera" television program and Marx Brothers movies. He claimed that ten minutes of belly laughter had an anesthetic effect and would give him at least two hours of pain-free sleep.
In controlled studies, humor has been shown to lower pain thresholds, reduce stress and even boost immune system function.
In one study, people listening to twenty minutes of Lily Tomlin joking about the telephone company were far less sensitive to pain than those who listened to an academic lecture. The Tomlin tape also blocked pain as effectively as a standard relaxation tape-and you know which one was more fun.
People who use humor a lot are less likely to get upset when faced with negative events. In another study, students had to solve increasingly tricky math problems, becoming highly stressed in the process. Afterwards, they could listen to relaxation tapes, watch an exploration film on the Icelandic River, or see a funny "Candid Camera" scene. The relaxation and funny tapes both reduced stress. But humor only worked for people used to laughing a lot. Laughter needs to be a regular part of your life to get its full benefit.

An Orange City family whose cat went missing found it shot to death two days later, the Sheriff's Office said Monday.
The animal had been shot with a pellet gun in front of the cat owner's son, said Sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson. The boy was able to recognize the shooter as William Stroud of Orange City, Davidson said.
But Stroud, 22, was not arrested until two weeks after the incident, Davidson said, because deputies could not find him.
The shooting occurred on Nov. 9 when the cat was sitting in the driveway of its home on 6th Street in the city, Davidson said. The cat scurried away, but the owners were not immediately aware that the animal had been shot.
When the cat failed to return home, the owners began looking for it and found the pet in a sewer drain just a few hundred feet from their residence, Davidson said.
The owner's son recalled that the animal had been shot and he said Stroud was the suspect, Davidson said.
Because deputies could not immediately find Stroud, they obtained an arrest warrant from a circuit court judge, Davidson said.
Stroud was arrested on Nov. 23 and charged with animal cruelty. He was taken to the branch jail on $3,000 bail.
Deputies: Orange City man shot and killed cat

Denver Art Museum hosts fashion events during Yves Saint Laurent exhibit
Starting with Friday's Untitled # 45 Haute, the Denver Art Museum is hosting a slew of special events and activities for fashion lovers during "Yves Saint Laurent: The Retrospective." Here's a rundown:
Untitled # 45 Haute
As part of its final Friday of the month Untitled series, the museum from 6-10 p.m. offers a number of activities around the museum including a fashion show, performance by Buntport Theater, on-site interior design consultations, hands-on haute couture skills workshop, local music, food and a cash bar. Ticket info at ysldenver.com
Unfortunately, if you're not already holding a ticket to the fashion show, you're out of luck because it's sold out. Denver designer Fallene Wells and Forever Darling invited contestants from the TV show "Project Runway" to design a collection inspired by Saint Laurent. The designers — including Julie Tierney and Michael Costello — will be present. The crowd and a panel of judges will vote on the evening's winner.
But there's another opportunity to see the looks as the show is being repeated Saturday. Forever Darling is partnering with Fashion Group International to present "Dressing is a Way of Life" at Walker Fine Art Gallery Gallery, 300 W. 11th Ave #A.
Tickets: $40 seats, food and drinks are limited and will be at a first come, first serve basis. Details at foreverdarling.org
The Fashion Studio
The museum has created an interactive Fashion Studio on the Hamilton wing's main floor. Would-be designers can try fashion illustration, drape a dress on a dress form, create an "inspiration board" or walk a runway. Visitors can peruse tools of the fashion trade, browse fashion magazines and watch a fashion video. On the weekends, such local fashion designers as Mona Lucero, Kotomi Yoshida, Jose Duran, James Silvrants and Stephanie Ohnmacht will be in house.
Through Sunday and timed to appeal to kids on spring break, the Fashion Studio offers activities like mixing patterns and selecting fabrics. The museum also has two "hotspots" that focus on fashion. Guests can make an Egyptian flower collar or design jewelry. The museum also has placed costumes throughout so children can dress up as cowboys, Renaissance royalty or a Chinese emperor. Kids 18 and under receive free general admission. Children 5 and under are always free. (A special exhibition ticket is required to tour the YSL show.) Details at 720–913-0130 or email email@example.com.
Yves Saint Laurent Pairings
On select Tuesday nights in May, museum staff members will team up with local experts to deliver a one-of-a-kind in-gallery experience and chance to see the show in a smaller, after-hours setting. Tickets to these events include entrance to "Yves Saint Laurent: The Retrospective."Each program costs $28 for DAM members and students and $35 for the public.Reservations are required; details at denverartmuseum.org/adultprograms or call 720-913-0130.
Fashion and Perfume Pairing
Perfumer Dawn Spencer Hurwitz and Laura Bennison lead the program May 1, 7:30–9 p.m.
Boulder perfumer Dawn Spencer Hurwitz brings to life the sights and scents of French haute couture. Participants will tour the exhibition and sample perfumes created for this event while leraning more about the creative world of Saint Laurent.
Fashion and Wine Pairing
Scott Mattson of Mondo Vino, Laura Bennison and Darrin Alfred, May 8, 7:30–9 p.m. (repeats May 29)
This Tuesday night lecture pairs DAM staff with local wine expert Scott Mattson of Mondo Vino for a multi-sensory experience. Participants will tour the exhibit while two wine experts connect the show with an array of wines. A wine tasting will follow the lecture.
Yves Saint Laurent: Fashion and Music Pairing
Musical performers and Darrin Alfred, May 15, 7:30–9 p.m.
Darrin Alfred teams up with local musicians to bring to life the sounds surrounding high fashion. Participants can enjoy musical performances in the gallery with a discussion to follow.

Michigan Tech to Dedicate New Solar Energy Research Center
By Marcia Goodrich | Published
The Keweenaw Research Center (KRC) will dedicate Michigan Technological University's first facility devoted to solar energy research on Wednesday, Sept. 28, at 9 a.m.
The Michigan Tech Solar Photovoltaic Research Facility includes an array of solar panels and an advanced energy-monitoring system at KRC's Engineering Design Building, near the Houghton County Memorial Airport. The two-kilowatt system will generate enough energy to charge all of the electric snowmobiles competing in the SAE Clean Snowmobile Challenge, held at KRC every March.
But this photovoltaic system isn't just about saving money on the electric bill. "The new facility will be used primarily to advance solar-energy research and education," said KRC Director Jay Meldrum.
The complete AC module system—including solar panels, microinverters and monitoring system—represents a new way to harvest solar energy that is making solar more affordable, productive and reliable. SolarBridge Technologies, of Austin, Texas, has provided 10 state-of-the-art microinverters, which convert each panel's DC current into AC current compatible with household use. In addition, SolarBridge has donated equipment and software for managing and monitoring the system.
Dow Corning, of Midland, and Hemlock Semiconductor, a partially owned subsidiary of Dow Corning based in Hemlock, are donating a variety of solar panels made by a number of manufacturers. Dow Corning produces the silicones used in making the panels. Hemlock Semiconductor manufactures polycrystalline silicon, the black, glass-like material on the panels' surface which absorbs sunlight.
Several Michigan Tech researchers will study the solar panels and the microinverters, evaluating the different designs and materials. Their work will enable manufacturers to develop higher-quality systems that are even more efficient and cost-effective.
"Recent advances are driving solar power closer to wide-scale adoption, and discoveries made at the Solar Photovoltaic Research Facility will accelerate that process," said Ron Van Dell, president and CEO of SolarBridge and a 1979 electrical engineering graduate of Michigan Tech. "SolarBridge is proud and excited to be part of this groundbreaking effort."
The facility will also provide opportunities for undergraduate work. KRC has a small weather station, and students in the Alternative Fuels Group Enterprise will correlate the solar cells' output with local weather conditions. Their advisors are Meldrum and Wenzhen Li, assistant professor of chemical engineering.
Student involvement is a key component of the project, said Billy Huss, global productivity manager for Dow Corning and a 1983 chemical engineering graduate of Michigan Tech. "Both Dow Corning and Hemlock Semiconductor are proud and happy to make this possible for the University, and we're excited about the research potential," he said. "But it's equally important for us that the center will help Tech students learn about solar energy systems and prepare them for employment in the field. That's a win-win-win situation, for the students, our industry and for society."
KRC is known for its research relating to snow and ice, so it might not seem like an ideal location for studying solar-energy systems. But the region's demanding weather provides a big advantage, says energy researcher Joshua Pearce. "This will allow us to evaluate solar-energy systems in real-world conditions," said Pearce, an associate professor who holds a dual appointment in the Departments of Materials Science and Engineering and Electrical and Computer Engineering. "The critical mass of Michigan Tech faculty, staff and students with related interests represents a massive potential to do photovoltaic research here, and we hope to expand the facility."
Other Michigan Tech faculty members using the Solar Photovoltaic Research Facility are Julie King of the chemical engineering department; Bruce Mork and Paul Bergstrom, electrical and computer engineering; Fernando Ponta, mechanical engineering–engineering mechanics; and Stephen Hackney, Miguel Levy, Yun Hu and Peter Moran, materials science and engineering.
Van Dell and Huss will attend the dedication, along with Dave Kraycsir and Stephen Trombley, both of Hemlock Semiconductor. The public is invited.
Michigan Technological University is a public research university, home to more than 7,000 students from 54 countries. Founded in 1885, the University offers more than 120 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in science and technology, engineering, forestry, business and economics, health professions, humanities, mathematics, and social sciences. Our campus in Michigan's Upper Peninsula overlooks the Keweenaw Waterway and is just a few miles from Lake Superior.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. -- The 2014 edition of the annual USATF National Club Cross Country Championships will take place in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, on the easy-to-remember date of 12-13-14 (Dec. 13, 2014--a Saturday). The competitions, which highlight club and age-group scoring, will be run over Lehigh University's time-tested and historic cross country course.
The top men's and women's Open teams will compete for $25,000. The top men's and women's Age-Group teams will divide up $10,000. In addition, the individual male and female with the best age-graded score will receive $100 each. Men compete over a 10K distance, women over 6K.
Lehigh has been host to five NCAA Division I Cross Country Championships, including an epic battle between Henry Rono and Alberto Salazar in 1979. (Rono won.) Lehigh also hosts the annual Paul Short Run, which attracts 5000+ high school, college, and open runners.
The Club Championships are a joint presentation of USATF and the Lehigh Valley Cross Country Council. "We're confident that the great Lehigh course and the experience of our Paul Short officials will combine to make this the best Club Championships yet," says Terry Delph of the LVCCC. "Bethlehem is within driving distance from much of the East Coast, and Lehigh Valley International Airport gives us a convenient airport. We also have ample free parking immediately adjacent to the course, which is very spectator-friendly."
Through the years, dozens of American greats have raced on the gently-weaving Lehigh course. These include 2004 Olympic Marathon bronze medalist Deena Kastor, and Jen Rhines, Amy Rudolph, Sydney Maree, Jim Spivey, John Tuttle, Brian Diemer, Ed Eyestone, Alan Culpepper, Keith Brantly, and more.

On 23 June 2016, the United Kingdom (UK) electorate voted to leave the European Union (EU) in a so-called 'Brexit' referendum. The full implications of Brexit are unknown and unknowable at this time as the referendum decision will need to be implemented over a period of time - expressed in the Treaty on European Union to be a period of up to two years from the time that notice of withdrawal is formally served. Until such implementation, there will be no automatic change in law or regulation.
However, even now this historic decision raises questions regarding financial services activity within the UK and the EU. Absent alternative arrangements, Brexit has potential consequences on a number of areas of financial services across the UK and the EU.
Against this backdrop, what are some potential consequences of Brexit on financial services in EU countries in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and South Eastern Europe (SEE)?
Passporting and access
Currently, UK/UK domiciled and regulated non-EU (Russian, Ukrainian and Turkish, as well as Swiss and US) banks, insurance companies and asset managers may operate across the EU through their UK bases by 'passporting' in accordance with European laws, such as the Capital Requirements Directive and the EU Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MIFID). With the implementation of Brexit, such financial businesses may not be entitled to passport across the EU from the UK. Such financial businesses may need to show that the UK regulatory system meets equivalence tests, establish EU bases, or cease operations in certain markets.
Regulatory compliance
EU financial services, particularly banking and capital markets, are highly regulated, in part due to requirements promulgated by the UK as an EU financial centre. With the implementation of Brexit, UK and EU regulations may gradually cease to be aligned. Certain UK financial services regulations may change and be incompatible with EU financial services regulations. EU entities providing services in the UK, UK entities providing services in the EU and non-EU entities proving services in both the UK and EU, may in some circumstances need to comply with dual regulations.
Contractual arrangements
English governing law has long dominated financial services contracts (LMA and ISDA standards for instance), and in particular contracts concerning cross border financial services. EU law has been embedded in English law either by reference or by practice for over 40 years. With the implementation of Brexit, parties to existing English law governed contracts may need to consider how to interpret certain contractual references to EU legislation. Moreover, to the extent affected contractual provisions are material, parties may need to consider whether under their local law, the choice of law in the contracts themselves are still valid and enforceable.
Enforcement and remedies
Currently, EU courts enjoy reciprocity of enforcement and remedy whereby UK court judgments may be enforced by all EU courts on assets located anywhere in the EU and vice versa. With the implementation of Brexit, the UK and the EU may no longer recognise such reciprocity. Accordingly, parties may need to review existing contractual dispute and jurisdiction provisions to mitigate enforcement and remedy risks.
