When Robert Rizzo pleaded no contest to corruption charges last month, many of the trappings of his former life as Bell's highly paid city manager were gone: the house near the ocean in Huntington Beach, the horse farm outside Seattle, the stable of racehorses.
But Rizzo still has two lucrative streams of money from his days in local government that neither Bell nor prosecutors can touch: his 401(k)-style retirement account that once held more than $1 million and an annual pension of $116,628.
As part of Rizzo's plea, he is expected to spend years in prison and probably will be ordered to pay up to $3.2 million in financial compensation to the city. But city officials say they are legally prevented from going after the pension and the retirement account — which appear to be Rizzo's main remaining assets — limiting how much the city can get back from him.
City leaders say it's a bitter pill because Rizzo amassed much of the retirement money by paying himself more than $1 million a year.
"It's mind-boggling that after so much he did that he's still able to receive money from the city because of the pension," Bell Councilman Ali Saleh said. "He's done dramatic damage to our city."
Rizzo's attorney said his client wants to make amends and help the city but that he is entitled to his retirement money.
"Mr. Rizzo has earned it," said his attorney, James W. Spertus. "He spent 30 years in public service and everyone is focusing on the last two or three. Most retired city managers with 30 years of service are making what Mr. Rizzo made from his pension or more."
Spertus said Rizzo could be forced to pay as much as $3.2 million in compensation to Bell, but city leaders are not sure where that would come from.
Since Rizzo's arrest, he has been battling on several fronts over various financial issues.
Rizzo's pension, once valued at more than $600,000 a year based on his pay in Bell, was slashed to $50,000 a year by the
Rizzo received some bad news earlier this month, though, when a state appeals court ruled that Bell did not have to pay his legal bills related to the
"So much for Rizzo making amends to Bell," said Anthony Taylor, Bell's lead litigation counsel.
Rizzo will join a long list of public officials who have continued to draw large pensions after being convicted of a felony. State law says that an elected official convicted of a felony loses his pension, but an appointed city official like Rizzo is not covered by the law.
In 2007 after outrage that former Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham, a San Diego-area Republican, would receive his congressional pension after being convicted of taking bribes and evading taxes, President
Rizzo's financial situation, attorneys for the city say, is similar to
Rizzo is expected to be sentenced in March after pleading no contest to misappropriating public funds, hiding and falsifying records, perjury and other crimes. He faces 10 to 12 years in prison, but with good behavior he'd spend about half that time behind bars.
David J. Cook, a San Francisco attorney who has pursued Simpson's money, said authorities should subpoena any loans Rizzo took out over the years for homes or cars, for example, because they would provide a snapshot of his assets at the time.
It is unclear how much Rizzo has in his retirement account. At one point it exceeded $1 million. But he's agreed to pay $242,720 back to the city.
Some are outraged that Rizzo is receiving anything.
"His pension will sit in bank accounts earning interest while he's in prison and taxpayers are paying his room and board," said Dan Reeves, chief of staff to state Sen.
"It seems like there should be restitution to taxpayers to at least pay room and board while he's in prison," he said.
Rizzo once lived in a four-bedroom, five-bath home, but these days he lives in a condominium in Torrance owned by his mother-in-law, tucked behind a guard shack.
He sold the Huntington Beach house for $939,000 in 2011, at a loss of $191,000.
The Washington horse ranch has a short sale pending for $575,000, according to real estate agent Cari Franklin, meaning it is selling for less than what the bank is owed. Rizzo bought the ranch for $930,000 in April 2004, around the time his salary began to skyrocket.
No one has lived at the 10-acre ranch for almost two years, the pastures are overgrown and the buildings are in disrepair and have been vandalized, Franklin said.
"The property," she said, "is not what it was in the past."

Last week we learned about Rover's aborted Mini Cooper concept that had an engine in the back. The more traditional front-wheel drive, front-engine idea won out, but what do you get when you combine the two and add 500 horsepower?
Answer: You get the Twini, a project car built by San Francisco tuner Jacques Andres that packs a traditional 1.6-liter supercharged Mini engine into both ends of the car. It's an all-wheel drive, two engine Cooper built for endurance racing. Yahoo! Motoramic says the Twini has two transmissions as well, but only one set of controls, which is probably good.
Andres and his team lent the Twini to noted denim and car enthusiast Jay Leno, who found it to be a nasty-sounding marvel of engineering that pulls with manic power.
It's a real shame it's not street legal, though I'd still love to see what this thing could do on a track.

The University of Maine at Farmington's 3 + 3 agreement with Logan University offers a quicker and more affordable pathway to becoming a Doctor of Chiropractic.
The University of Maine at Farmington's 3 + 3 Pre-Chiropractic program with Logan University provides a remarkable way to earn a Doctor of Chiropractic degree.
You complete the first 3 years of undergraduate study at UMF (considered your "home institution") then transfer to Logan University to begin your Doctor of Chiropractic Degree Program where you'll complete the remaining requirements in just 3 years — a total of 6 years rather than 7.
This unique fast-track arrangement saves you both time and money. The concurrent enrollment in basic science coursework satisfies the academic requirements for both your Bachelor's degree in Biology from the University of Maine at Farmington and your Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Logan University.
It lets you pursue your dream of becoming a chiropractor quicker — and you'll enjoy the convenience of finishing school a year sooner than others attending Logan.
Located in Chesterfield, Missouri, Logan University blends tradition and innovation. Since 1935, Logan has had a long, well-established reputation in the chiropractic profession. Logan was founded on chiropractic care providing the health consumer with a viable choice to traditional medicine.
Logan University's model is a non-drug, non-invasive form of care. It's based on the relationship between the structure and function of the human body. This includes the ability of the body to heal itself naturally given the right circumstances. Logan graduates recognize and embrace the fact that chiropractic care plays a significant role in managing this nation's $80 billion back pain epidemic.

This archive contains all documents published by cep over the last few years:
cepAdhoc: Incisive comment on current EU policy issues.
cepPolicyBrief: Concise 4-page reviews of EU proposals (Regulations, Directives, Green Papers, White Papers, Communications) – including a brief summary and economic and legal assessments.
cepInput: Impulse to current discussions of EU policies.
cepStudy: Comprehensive examination of EU policy proposals affecting the economy.
According to the Commission the potential of liberalisation of the electricity and gas markets should be further tapped. Competitive solutions are to increasingly enjoy priority over price regulation. Moreover, the Commission is making statements on the frequency of supplier switching.
In the end there seemed to be too much political pressure. Shortly before the EU-Elections the Commissioner for the Single Market McCreevy presented a proposal for the regulation of alternative investment funds (AIF), in particular of hedge funds and private equity funds.
The concept of a "European maritime transport space without barriers" aims to eliminate or simplify administrative procedures in intra-EU maritime transport. Thus it is to be made "more attractive, more efficient and more competitive" and more environmentally friendly.
According to the Commission climate change requires adaptation measures in key policy sectors such as health and social affairs, agriculture and infrastructure. In order to supplement the expenses of Member States and to share burdens, adaptation measures could be financed through EU spending programmes.
In response to the financial crisis the EU-Commission strengthens CEBS-, CESR- and CEIOPS-Committees and provides to them additional funding. The Committees are to enhance closer cooperation between national supervisory authorities and to strengthen the stability of the financial system.
The EU-Commission has fundamentally revised the EU Codex for Medicinal Products in its Pharmaceutical Package presented in December 2008. The focus lies on informations for patients, the protection against falsified medical products and the monitoring of authorised medical products (pharmacovigilance). For the latter, essential improvements are the obligation for an implementation of a risk-management-system for all newly authorised medical products and the option for authorities to impose requirements even after authorisation.
The European Commission wants to reduce the administrative burdens of micro-entities. It is therefore proposing an amending Directive, which would enable Member States to exempt micro-entities from the obligation to draw up annual accounts.
The consumer markets scoreboard serves to monitor the "performance" of the internal market from the consumers' perspective and to identify parts of it that "are not functioning well". Moreover, consumer options for cross-border shopping within the EU are to be assessed and the general conditions for effective consumer protection in the single Member States be benchmarked.
The Proposal for a Directive is to recast the "WEEE Directive" 2002/96/EC, which regulates the waste management of electrical and electronic equipment. The adverse impact of this waste on the environment and human health is to be prevented and used more efficiently as a source of raw materials. Producers must meet an annual minimum rate in each Member State for overall recovery, as well as for the preparation for the re-use and recycling of WEEE. Registration and reporting obligations should now be harmonised and the national registers should be made inter-operable.
The Commission wishes to accelerate the deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and to establish a legal framework. In its Action Plan the Commission calls for action and sets a timeframe for the deployment and improvement of single ITS.

SC Attorney General – Informational Website
The attorney general is the state's legal advisor and the main chief law enforcement officer for the state. They represent that state as the prosecutor and the head of law enforcement surrounding the state. Each of the 50 states in the U.S. has an attorney general. There are currently 43 states in the U.S. where the attorney general is decided by an election but in 7 states the governor appoints the attorney general. As the chief legal advisor for the state, the attorney general weighs in on both criminal law and civil law issues. Examples of criminal issues could include the legalization of marijuana in their respective states, passing certain statewide gang or firearms laws and interacting with the department of justice. Civil actions generally include responding to lawsuits against the state or suing certain businesses or schools as a result of what they believe to be unfair business practices.
The current attorney general of South Carolina as of 2016 is Alan Wilson, he is the 51st South Carolina attorney general. Mr. Wilson is a republican and in 2014 he petitioned to stop same-sex marriage licenses from being issued. He has had some controversy during his time as attorney general, one issue being that he did not declare a certain amount of campaign donations and the other being that he claimed on Fox News that there were people who were dead that were still voting. Both issues were resolved and there have never been any criminal or civil charges against Mr. Wilson in either situation. Before Wilson, Henry McMaster was the SC attorney general. McMaster was the 50th South Carolina attorney general and he served as attorney general from 2003 until 2011.
California Attorney General
The current attorney general in California is Kamala Harris. Ms. Harris is the 32nd attorney general in California. California is a very large state and often people ask if California is split into a Southern California Attorney General (SC Attorney General) and a Northern California attorney general but that is not the case, instead there is just one attorney general that manages both districts.
As a former California criminal lawyer and actually a prosecutor, Ms. Harris has been very vocal on California criminal law issues. Throughout her time as attorney general she has been a strong proponent of gun control and while a district attorney she had even challenged gun control laws in respect to the second amendment of the constitution. The attorney general in California has also been very local about the housing crises and mortgage fraud; she believes that we should be stricter with mortgage fraud and she has increased state prosecutions of these individuals who are doing it. Being the attorney general in California there is a lot of overlap with criminal defense law. These individuals need to look at the large spectrum of criminal law and see where they can make a difference overall as a state. When criminal defense attorneys file papers against the state as a whole saying that the state made a mistake, it is the attorney general's office that has to act as legal counsel for the state and step in to defend them. Ms. Harris has sued the mortgage industry in regards to mortgage fraud and has recovered billions of dollars for the victims of criminal fraud, she has also sued certain schools for what they believed were predatory practices on students.
Criminal Law in California
Criminal law in California is unfortunately a big part of the state, people keep committing crimes and the crimes continue to be prosecuted. When someone is first a victim of a crime they call the police and then it goes through the regular channels. If it is an issue where the investigative agency is a department of the state then it will generally be prosecuted by the Attorney General's office of California. If it is an issue where the local or county police are involved then it would likely be handled directly by the District Attorney's office of the district where the crime was committed. This informational site provides information about Attorney General's in the U.S. We also discuss legal aspects on current events regarding attorney generals in our law news section.
If you are the victim of the crime, you should certainly reach out to your local law enforcement agency and tell that what has happened. That is the best place to start and they generally have the resources elevate your claim to state authorities if needed. For further criminal law issues you should contact San Diego Criminal Lawyer Alex Ozols at Ozols Law Firm. They will be able to give you a lawyer's perspective on current criminal defense issues and any type of other law information you may need.

Okay, I have about 8-10 people who are interested in coming to BB with us. I've emailed and ask about availabilities for a place to stay at Zentrum für Umwelt und Kultur Benediktbeuern for 10 people. Just got an answer from them.
They have 5 doubles available for the 22nd-23rd September, which means we can have 10 people coming. It costs EUR 29.50 / person including breakfast. I need to get confirmation from people who are definitely coming and book the place ASAP, so please contact me either here by leaving a comment or email (in the sidebar) to confirm your place as soon as possible! (preferably at the latest by the end of this week!).
So far, these are the people I have on my list:

Nuclear technology is not just used to supply electricity to the grid; it is in a wide variety of other uses such as medicine, heating and space travel.
Nuclear medicine uses radiation to allow doctors to make a quick, accurate diagnosis of the functioning of person's specific organs, or to treat them. Radiotherapy can be used to treat some medical conditions, especially cancer, using radiation to weaken or destroy particular targeted cells.
Tens of millions of patients are treated with nuclear medicine each year. Over 10,000 hospitals worldwide use radioisotopes in medicine, and about 90% of the procedures are for diagnosis. The most common radioisotope used in diagnosis is technetium-99, with some 30 million procedures per year, accounting for 80% of all nuclear medicine procedures worldwide.
Modern industry also uses radioisotopes in a variety of ways. Sealed radioactive sources are used in industrial radiography, gauging applications and mineral analysis.
Heat from nuclear reactors can be used directly, instead or as well as being used to generate electricity. This heat can be used for district heating, as process heat for industry or for desalination plants, used to make clean drinkable water from seawater.
Radioisotope thermal generators (RTGs) are used in space missions. The heat generated by the decay of a radioactive source, often plutonium-238, is used to generate electricity. The Voyager space probes, the Cassini mission to Saturn, the Galileo mission to Jupiter and the New Horizons mission to Pluto all are powered by RTGs. The Spirit and Opportunity Mars rovers have used a mix of solar panels for electricity and RTGs for heat. The latest Mars rover, Curiosity, is much bigger and uses RTGs for heat and electricity as solar panels would not be able to supply enough electricity.
In the future electricity or heat from nuclear power plants could be used to make hydrogen. Hydrogen can be used in fuel cells to power cars, or can be burnt to provide heat in place of gas, without producing emissions that would cause climate change.

Dartmouth Engineering Students Invent Gel for Cancer Treatment
By Anna Fiorentino
June 2013 • Thayer By Degrees: MS
A slow-release gel invented by Dartmouth engineering MS student Ben Cunkelman Th'13, '14 and Robert Collier Th'13 is designed to be mixed with iron oxide nanoparticles to enhance an experimental treatment called magnetic hyperthermia developed by the Dartmouth Center of Cancer Nanotechnology Excellence (DCCNE). The postoperative gel already tested on dogs will prevent the tiny nanoparticles (100,000 can fit on a pen tip) from trickling out of a tumor bed and will help the particles target any remaining cancer cells.
Collier and Cunkelman filed for a patent for the biodegradable gel made of a water soluble, film-forming starch polymer called pullulan in February, after beginning work on it in Adjunct Professor of Engineering Jack Hoopes' Introduction to Biomedical Engineering course last spring.
"The idea is to apply the gel onto a tumor margin after surgery and after a certain amount of time the gel will degrade, leaving the nanoparticles on the margin," says Cunkelman, a dual-degree student from Colby College. "The majority of cancer recurrence following tumor resection occurs at the tumor margin."
Magnetic Hyperthermia—which for now the DCCNE is pairing with chemotherapy and radiation—injects coated magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles either locally or into the bloodstream so they can make their way to tumors and cancer cells in corners of the body. The tumor is then placed under an alternating magnetic field that activates the nanoparticles, allowing them to heat up, by tumbling, to an optimum temperature to kill the cancer and any other cells containing the nanoparticles.
"The gel itself is basically a supersaturated solution that dissolves rapidly once it interacts with the abundance of water in human tissue," says Cunkelman. But there is still a lot to learn about the degradation and elution kinetics before the students can begin to better understand the efficacy of the gel. The gel formulation will be tested in a mouse model of surgical bed resection to assess in vivo gel dissolution, how well it enables the nanoparticles to reach the cells, and its heating capability when exposed to the alternating magnetic field.
"I hope that someday this type of treatment can be effective in treating cancer patients who have to undergo surgery for tumor resection," says Cunkelman who is now pursuing his MS in biomedical engineering and doing orthopedic implant research in the Dartmouth Biomedical Engineering Center with Professor John Collier:comments powered by Disqus

What is a Tummy Tuck?
Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty) is a cosmetic surgery procedure used to make the abdomen more firm. The surgery involves the removal of excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen in order to tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall.
Tummy tuck is usually sought by patients with sagging after major weight loss, or by women after pregnancy.
According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Abdominoplasty is the 4th most popular cosmetic surgery procedure in the United States (2008 stats).
What types of Tummy Tucks are available?

Visiting Student Career Changes Policy
The Office of Admissions, in coordination with UMKC Central, processes all non-degree applications which are commonly referred to as visiting students. Visiting students apply to take classes as undergraduate or graduate students. The level of the students (undergraduate or graduate) determines the fees associated with the class and the type of credit that will be awarded.
Visiting student will have until the University Census date of each semester to make a request to change their enrollment degree level status. Changes requested after the University Census date will not be approved. Students who request a degree level change after the start of the term and prior to the University Census date will be charged a $50 late registration fee.
UMKC Student Preferred Name Policy
UMKC acknowledges that many students use names other than their legal name to identify themselves. Student can update their preferred name in Pathway
Adding a preferred name does not change a student's official name as a part of their educational record. Your official name is your legal name. Your official name is used for financial aid, transcripts, international student I-20's and other documents required by the university.
Preferred names will be displayed in the Pathway student center, Pathway class roster, and Pathway grade roster. Additionally, a preferred name may be displayed in other university maintained software applications such as Blackboard or Moodle.
Students who choose to take advantage of this preferred name policy are subject to the University Collected Rules and Regulations as well as the University of Missouri Kansas City Acceptable Use Policy for technology.
• Policies on official name changes can be found
• Information about changing a legal name in Missouri can be found here.

• Information about changing your preferred name in Pathway can be found here.
University-Wide Service Indicators
In some situations, it is important that records or holds preventing certain actions be maintained in student records across the four campuses in the University of Missouri System. For instance, if a student is sanctioned with University Dismissal, University Suspension, University Expulsion or other sanctions/agreements that extend beyond a given campus, a mechanism to enforce such agreements or sanctions is needed. More information can be found here.
A university/system-wide service indicator or hold may be placed within the student information system (e.g. PeopleSoft) that will enforce the policy. These are placed and removed by authorized individuals on each campus and will automatically be added or removed from impacting students on all campuses.


text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OverviewGame Over is a message that is displayed on screen, announcing the end of gameplay, after the player has failed one the game's main objectives. The Game Over screen can display a number of other messages as well, such as "You Are Dead" or "Mission Failed", though "Game Over" is, far and away, the most commonly used. The idea is now so universally known that it has become a common phrase in the English language used to signify the end of something.HistoryLike many of the classic video game mainstays, the concept of the Game Over was constructed out of the necessity for arcade games to get more money from players. The idea was to limit gameplay time so that people could not simply continue playing forever on a single quarter, thus making more money for those collecting.The game over screen, classically, was shown to tell the player that they had failed the game (or in some cases, finished the game), and could progress no further. Their only option being to insert more money into the machine and begin playing the game again from the very start. This later gave birth to the "Continue?" screen which gives the player the option to continue progressing through the game after losing, provided they insert more money into the machine.Games were usually constructed in a manner in which the player would have a limited number of tries to complete a goal or beat the game before their play was ended by the getting the Game Over screen. The most common of which was the concept of the player having a finite amount of "extra lives". One extra life would be taken from the player each time their character died in the game, until all extra lives were gone, resulting in Game Over.Modern UsageIn the era of the home console, the Game Over screen is an increasingly rare sight in modern video games. Because most games are now a one-time purchase, there is no need to force a final end to the gameplay onto the player in order to get more money. This allows games to be longer, have more depth and complexity, and better stories, among many other things.Many games still feature the Game Over screen for when a player has failed one of the games main objectives, but rather than forcing the player to restart the game from the beginning, the Game Over screen now more commonly presents the player with a series of options which could include restarting from a checkpoint, from the beginning of the level that they're currently playing, from the most recent point at which the player saved their progress, or simply quitting out of the game.However, many modern games have completely done away with the concept of the Game Over screen, instead continuously reverting to the most recent checkpoint or save point each time the player fails until they choose to quit.Further, because video game designers no longer rely on limiting gameplay to gain profit, the door is opened for many genres of games to be made that could never exist in an arcade setting because they do not feature any way to fail or any real end to gameplay, allowing a person to continue playing a game for as long as they like.

Picture: Demi Lovato - 2013 MuchMusic Video Awards at MuchMusic HQ - Arrivals - Toronto, Ontario, Canada - Sunday 16th June 2013
Singer Demi Lovato has cancelled an appearance at a publicity event for America's The X Factor following the death of her father.
The sad news was revealed by the singer's sister Dallas on Saturday (22Jun13), when she wrote in a post on Twitter.com, "Rest in peace daddy I love you."
No more details about Patrick Lovato's death were available as Wenn went to press. He was a former country singer and studio engineer and was believed to have been battling cancer in recent years.
Lovato's parents divorced in 1994 and she has been estranged from her dad since 2007.
After news of Patrick's death broke, Demi's mother Dianna, published a picture of him with the singer and her sister on her Twitter.com page, adding, "Thank you all for the outpouring of love and prayers. Y'all are amazing!"
Lovato was reportedly due to attend a photoshoot with her fellow The X Factor judges on Saturday, but pulled out of the event.
The show's host, Mario Lopez, revealed her absence by posting a picture of the remaining judges on his Twitter.com page, writing, "With my The X Factor Usa team! Missing (Demi Lovato) today... :("

Orthopedic Specialists was originally founded by Dr. John Sullivan in 1985 and has been located in our current Palm Harbor location since 1997. Since 1985, Orthopedic Specialists has grown to a practice of seven Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeons that have over 100 years of combined orthopedic experience. The Orthopedic Specialists physicians are John G. Sullivan, M.D., Brian Maiocco, M.D., Andrew C. Maser, D.O., R.Brian Williams, D.O., Alan Graves, M.D., Scott Brotherton, M.D. and Brandon Taylor, M.D.. They are trained and skilled in modern techniques of non-operative orthopedics as well as orthopedic surgery, including arthroscopic surgery and total joint replacements, and have performed thousands of successful surgeries. Their approach to patient care continues to emphasize conservative, non-surgical methods whenever possible and they will only recommend surgery when it is absolutely necessary.
While the physicians of Orthopedic Specialists all specialize in different areas of orthopedic surgery, many of the surgeries that are performed by our surgeons can be performed by more then one of them. Since a vast number of patients do not require surgery it is important to know all of the physicians here are trained in the non-surgical treatment of the orthopedic conditions. This allows us the ability to offer most people same or next day appointments. Patients that do require surgery will always be referred to the appropriate physician that specializes in that surgery.
Orthopedic Specialists does not substitute any physician's assistants or other "physician extenders" to see our patients. Every patient will see the doctor on every visit, providing a level of personalized care unsurpassed in the community. Our office staff are all very professional, friendly, and courteous. During office hours, callers will always speak directly to a staff member, and not to a voice menu system. Our office does not close for lunch, and our physical therapy department has extended hours for your convenience.

text: December 26, 2013 Lori Bowen December 26, 2013 Lori Bowen If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also — Matt 5:39 This specifically refers to a hand striking the side of a person's face, tells quite a different story when placed in it's proper historical context. In Jesus's time, striking someone of a lower class ( a servant) with the back of the hand was used to assert authority and dominance. If the persecuted person "turned the other cheek," the discipliner was faced with a dilemma. The left hand was used for unclean purposes, so a back-hand strike on the opposite cheek would not be performed. Another alternative would be a slap with the open hand as a challenge or to punch the person, but this was seen as a statement of equality. Thus, by turning the other cheek the persecuted was in effect putting an end to the behavior or if the slapping continued the person would lawfully be deemed equal and have to be released as a servant/slave. (via thefullnessofthefaith) THAT makes a lot more sense, now, thank you. (via guardianrock) I can attest to the original poster's comments. A few years back I took an intensive seminar on faith-based progressive activism, and we spent an entire unit discussing how many of Jesus' instructions and stories were performative protests designed to shed light on and ridicule the oppressions of that time period as a way to emphasize the absurdity of the social hierarchy and give people the will and motivation to make changes for a more free and equal society. For example, the next verse (Matthew 5:40) states "And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well." In that time period, men traditionally wore a shirt and a coat-like garment as their daily wear. To sue someone for their shirt was to put them in their place - suing was generally only performed to take care of outstanding debts, and to be sued for one's shirt meant that the person was so destitute the only valuable thing they could repay with was their own clothing. However, many cultures at that time (including Hebrew peoples) had prohibitions bordering on taboo against public nudity, so for a sued man to surrender both his shirt and his coat was to turn the system on its head and symbolically state, in a very public forum, that "I have no money with which to repay this person, but they are so insistent on taking advantage of my poverty that I am leaving this hearing buck-ass naked. His greed is the cause of a shameful public spectacle." All of a sudden an action of power (suing someone for their shirt) becomes a powerful symbol of subversion and mockery, as the suing patron either accepts the coat (and therefore full responsibility as the cause of the other man's shameful display) or desperately chases the protester around trying to return his clothes to him, making a fool of himself in front of his peers and the entire gathered community. Additionally, the next verse (Matthew 5:41; "If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles.") was a big middle finger to the Romans who had taken over Judea and were not seen as legitimate authority by the majority of the population there. Roman law stated that a centurion on the march could require a Jew (and possibly other civilians as well, although I don't remember explicitly) to carry his pack at any time and for any reason for one mile along the road (and because of the importance of the Roman highway system in maintaining rule over the expansive empire, the roads tended to be very well ordered and marked), however hecould not require any service beyond the next mile marker. For a Jewish civilian to carry a centurion's pack for an entire second mile was a way to subvert the authority of the occupying forces. If the civilian wouldn't give the pack back at the end of the first mile, the centurion would either have to forcibly take it back or report the civilian to his commanding officer (both of which would result in discipline being taken against the soldier for breaking Roman law) or wait until the civilian volunteered to return the pack, giving the Judean native implicit power over the occupying Roman and completely subverting the power structure of the Empire. Can you imagine how demoralizing that must have been for the highly ordered Roman armies that patrolled the region? Jesus was a pacifist, but his teachings were in no way passive. There's a reason he was practically considered a terrorist by the reigning powers, and it wasn't because he healed the sick and fed the hungry. (via central-avenue) yo i like thisi would like to know more about thiswhere does one learn more about this seconded like whoa (via wanderingoff) whether jesus was a pacifist or not is actually debatable. he also instructed his followers: "if you do not have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one" (Luke 22:36). He may not have actively advocated violence but he was not above using it and he arguably aimed to one day overthrow the roman rule over judea i don't know about the validity of these particular interpretations - because a lot of the new testament was written by people who purposefully altered what the historical jesus said and did to turn a Jewish, anti-roman, radical peasant into a peaceful heavenly figure and make his Jewish movement a universal religion for roman consumption - but it's definitely true that a lot of what jesus actually did say was about changing the status quo and challenging the jewish aristocracy and roman state at the time (via theroguefeminist) Lori Bowen

Welcome to the Kumoricon Forums! Remember: Have fun! – Forum code of conduct.
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
What (if any) sort of background do you have in this field? Do you have any formal training related to this aspect of marketing?
With us possibly facing a very hard cap in 2010, would it make more sense for Publicity to focus on building community partnerships than trying to promote Kcon to new people?Basically, the money that usually pays for advertising would support our work with Keep Portland Weird, Eugene Asian Festival, outreach events and the like?
A question set for any potential Publicity Directors who will also be running for other departments:Do you feel you will be able to simultaneously fulfill the duties of multiple departments? Or would you instead prefer one department over another?
A question for JeffT:Could you please summarize and enumerate the typical duties Publicity has before the convention (besides the obvious), and any duties Publicity in general and the Publicity Director in specific have during the convention? (I consider the initial run of signs as pre-convention setup; though it should count towards 'at convention' time for any involved staff.)My current understanding of during-convention duties for Publicity involves communicating updates to event scheduling via several formats, and effectively operating as press-specific relations for both pre-arranged journalists of various types and any local/national media which might suddenly realize they'd like to cover Six Thousand people, a good percentage of which are in cosplay, stuffing in to a single hotel downtown and driving local business.
While it might be hard, it would be a nice thing if you could get an add on one of the TV stations that people know about and hit a larger audience. Ya they cost monies maybe you could try to get some shout outs on the local community access hehe
Also, Freedom TV isn't with the guy who always wears that baseball cap is it? Doesn't seem like the place for an add if that was him, but anything helps.
I'm fairly sure I've seen at least one of her shows. My family think I'm weird for it being one of my only channels I like. I think they are brainwashed. Anyhow hope we get that vid and more like it for next year.
(a) I'd be into buying previous year's posters and con books as souvenirs and as promo material to show family/friends what I've been investing all this time and energy in for the past 7+ years. Is that something Publicity is/should be open to?(b) Would you be open to creating staff positions, the sole task of which is copy editing the con book (and perhaps the schedule)? Not having to be involved beforehand, not having say (editing), but looking at the finished prototype that is about to go to print, and objectively (as folks not having already invested hours in it) catching typos, layout issues, etc.? (If so, I am open to be part of a team helping with this.)(c) Are there areas of your department that definitely need more help, or less help?(d) When there is a need for any kind of "damage control", is that Publicity, Relations, or Facilities Liason, or does that vary with in whose eyes our image needs repair?(e) Are there any material items that need to be acquired and dedicated to the department, rather than relying on staff/management's personal versions of those pieces of equipment? If so, would you (or Relations) be able to secure corporate donations of them, or would we have to fundraise for them or allocate to them from con budget?(f) Do we use recycled paper and soy-based inks? If not, can we start doing so?
Thanks for a thorough and logical reply.I would love to get an extra copy of the con books from 2008 and 2009 (PM me about feasibility).Honestly I would've been certain there were 10 hours' worth of copy editing chores between the con book, the schedule, and the online version of the schedule. But if you feel there is not, perhaps someone could also work on the newsletter (or, as you mentioned, you could cull folks from other departments who happen to have a knack and talent for copy editing ).BTW, whatever happened to the newsletter? What would you like to see happen with the newsletter?Should KC develop its own youtube (or comparable) channel? If so what should be on it?
Next year I actually already have an assistant lined up for the weekend for my AA table, so I shouldn't have any problems there. And I should be able to some panels still, baring any directorship emergencies.
How comfortable are you talking with and schmoozing with press and industry? How are you with press in general? Press can be pretty aggressive and negative / freaky stories play better to general public than stories about how nifty something is. How can you make them interested in seeing Kcon as a whole, and not just a lookit-these-wierdos newsbyte?Industry sometimes involved Pub as well as Rel.

Celebrating Malbec World Day!
Wines of Argentina, the organization responsible for the image of Argentine wine worldwide, is hosting Malbec World Day 2012 on April 17.
This time, the main celebrations will take place in New York, Washington, Los Angeles and Seattle in the USA. Canadian cities such as Ottawa, Toronto, Victoria and Vancouver will also participate in the celebrations, as will the UK, the Netherlands, Colombia, Peru, Mexico, Brazil, Costa Rica and Buenos Aires City, in Argentina.
In collaboration with the Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Worship, the events will be held in over 42 locations around the world, featuring tastings, tango performances and food, with the attendance of journalists, buyers and special guests.
According to WofA authorities, the wineries that participated and the Argentine Chancellery, Malbec World Day 2011 was a roaring success and not only strengthened Malbec and Argentina's positioning in 46 cities from 33 different countries, but also motivated an increase in sales of this varietal in particular and of Argentine wine in general. Malbec export income, it is worth mentioning, rose 11,4% in FOB with respect to 2010. Likewise, premium wine exports showed a 32.2% increase in growth for the USD 40 and USD 90 segment (9-liter cases), and a 40.7 % increase for 9-liter cases worth over USD 90.
President of Wines of Argentina Alberto Arizu Jr. stated: "These figures can only validate our strategy at Wines of Argentina, which basically involves using Malbec as the door to open world markets while positioning the country brand as a premium wine producer. Our aim is for consumers to immerse themselves in the diversity of our wines starting with Malbec, the best of our credentials."
The events programmed for Buenos Aires City will include a cocktail party at Puerto Madero's Yacht Club, tastings of Malbec from a variety of wine regions and a tango performance featuring worldly-acclaimed dancer Mora Godoy and her company. Simultaneously, key points across Buenos Aires City like the Obelisk, Puente de la Mujer, Dam 4 canal in Puerto Madero and Monumento de los Españoles will be lit up in Malbec color.
Wines of Argentina is the organization responsible for promoting the brand Vino Argentino and the image of Argentine wines abroad, in addition to guiding their export strategy through careful study and analysis of the changes taking place in consumer markets. Seeking to enhance its positive image in the wine trade and among opinion leaders and consumers, Wines of Argentina's goal is to help Argentina establish itself among the leading wine exporting countries in the world and contribute to the global success of the wine industry.
Why April 17 Was the Chosen Date
Malbec originated in the southwest of France, where this variety was cultivated and whose resulting wines, named "from Cahors" after the region, have enjoyed increasing recognition since the times of the Roman Empire. Their prestige became consolidated in the Middle Ages and they gained full recognition in modern times.
The conquest of the English market was a crucial step for this variety to become appreciated in England and the world. When phylloxera destroyed French viticulture towards the end of the 19th century, the "Cot" fell into oblivion. However, a culture of appreciation of Malbec had already become consolidated, and laid the foundations for the development of Argentine Malbec some time later. It was brought to our country by Michel Aimé Pouget (1821-1875) from France, an agronomist who was hired by Domingo Faustino Sarmiento to run the Quinta Agronómica de Mendoza.
After the French model, this Quinta Normal sought to incorporate new varietals as a way to boost the national wine industry. On April 17 1853, with the support of Mendoza's governor, Pedro Pascual Segura, a bill was submitted to the Provincial Legislature for the foundation of a Quinta Normal and a School of Agriculture. The bill was enacted as law by the House of Representatives on September 6 1853.
By the end of the 19th century, viticulture experienced an exponential development in the hands of Italian and French immigrants, and so did Malbec, which adapted quickly to the varied terroirs offered by our geography and developed even better than in its original land. In this way, over the course of time and after a lot of hard work, Malbec came to be Argentina's flagship variety.
The efforts made by Pouget and Sarmiento for the Quinta Normal of Mendoza played a key role in that process. To Wines of Argentina, April 17 not only represents the transformation of Argentina's wine industry but it is also the starting point for the development of Malbec as the iconic variety and international flagship of Argentina's viticulture.

Summer Camp at home with PBS Parents
Posted by
If you're a kid, summer is the best time of year, but if you're a parent or grandparent, it can have its challenging moments. How do you keep your kids engaged when they don't have school during the day? How do you help them avoid the summer slide? And how do you keep them from staring at a computer, tablet or TV screen for 3 months?
PBS Parents recently released a special "Summer Camp" webpage that's full of free (or nearly free) activities, ways to include learning in summer fun, cool outdoor activities and so much more. There's even a summer bucket list for 2014 that includes activities like catching fireflies, making homemade popsicles (recipe included), going to the county fair and building a bug house.
Check it out and let us know some of your favorite summer activities in the comments! Here's the link to the camp page: http://www.pbs.org/parents/summer/.
We also especially love the bucket list: http://www.pbs.org/parents/summer/camp-pbs-parents-summer-bucket-list-2014/.

[written by Vampire Awareness Month, co-conspirator, Mark S. Deniz]
Well I even have to admit to getting a little emotional whilst typing the subject for this post. I have to be honest though and say it might not just be melancholy at the thought of this most wonderful of events ending but it could also be from a lack of sleep, brought on by, not just this, but two announcements that will be made tonight (coming up in this very post).
Saying all that though, I'm quite sure that the main reason I'm feeling emotional right now is that I am aware that several of you have settled down with your popcorn, crisps and soft drinks, to watch easily the worst of the sixteen vampire films of the schedule, the yawn-inspiring Twilight. I braved it the other day and it took me five sittings to get through it…
But yes, this month is now to go the way of many a good thing before it, and I'm a little sad about that, as it's been absolutely fantastic. Not only have Peter Bell and I been rather surprised by how his little idea took off but that we got so many readers, so many mails and so many interested people, both in what we wanted to do and in the topic itself!
For a hastily put together event it went ever so smoothly, the contributors sent their posts to me, with enough time for me to tweak them, add pictures and schedule them for their allotted time. From an outside viewer, coming along to view the posts every day, it must have seemed ever so organised.
Yet we agreed things could have been done better: I think the event grew too big for my blog and would have been better housed somewhere else, not so much for you lot but for me, as it got to the stage where I didn't want to add my daily thoughts, thinking they might get confused as rubbish posts on the event…;) I even missed blogging about the World Cup final, as it fell on the third day of Vampire Awareness Month. Did you notice that? I did!
My other niggle was that we created an event, rather than a group on Facebook, and this lead to all sorts of limitations over there. Facebook is a wonderful social tool and we really think we could have gotten more exposure had we looked at that differently.
BUT, and it's a big but (as you can see), we have to remind ourselves (make that me, as Peter has been very satisfied with it all) that it was pretty much a spontaneous event that we turned into a very workable and very engaging month of stuff about the vampire.
May saw me watch twenty-six zombie films, after reading someone else's blog about the official Zombie Awareness Month, which is really official, before then being asked to write an article for Dark Fiction Review's Full Moon Month, in June, not surprisingly featuring werewolves. After Peter mentioned vampires we were then set for the third monster!
As mentioned in the earlier post, Stoker's Dracula is easily one of my favourite novels of all time but I had forgotten how much I do like this creatures, in their many guises. I was reminded of this when I re-read Keats' Lamia poem, thanks to Tom English, watched the TV series, Ultraviolet, which I rather enjoyed. I also went back to True Blood, a series I had given up after one episode but actually enjoyed, as I began to watch more.
I am currently re-reading Dracula, and still loving it (ow that sounded like a film parody there) as well as fully immersing myself in all the films, as there were several here that were on my list that I just hadn't got around to: 30 Days of Night, Shadow of the Vampire, The Hunger and Martin were all films I hadn't seen before – Martin pretty much ending up being my favourite vampire film ever made – yes, I said it now, so it must be!
But as well as all those gems we got these excellent posts from so many writers, reviewers and artists out there, which basically made the month. I mean the films were good and I've enjoyed reading the literature but the posts made the month, they made us re-assess where we are with vampire, what we love about the vampire, what we should be reading, watching, listening to, eating…
A huge thank you, massive in fact, goes to every single one of you, for being a joy to work with, for giving of your time, for linking to/pinging back to/commenting on all the posts, for making Vampire Awareness Month the absolute joy that is was. I am so looking forward to us working together sometime soon…
Which brings me to the first of the two announcements for this evening and that is that after we've said goodbye to our little bloodsuckers, we are going to jump right into the next festival, that of Ghost Appreciation Month, as, much as I love the vampire, and the werewolf, and the zombie, the ghost is easily my favourite of the 'monsters' I like to write about/read/watch and after hinting the thing to Peter a couple of weeks ago we had made up our mind to go for it.
Bearing in mind all I have mentioned about where we could improve, we have decided to get started on it all now, tonight, and have added it to a website, in readiness for the event, which will take place in October this year. More can be found here:
but more will be forthcoming.
The wily ones among you may also have noticed things going on in that link and that refers to our brand new shiny website, Beyond Fiction, which will not only be the host of Ghost Appreciation Month but will also be home to interviews, reviews and other goodness in this fair industry of ours.
So that's it for Vampire Awareness Month, hope you enjoyed it as much as we did and very much hope to see you at Ghost Appreciation Month in October!

Robin explains the differences in how the collections are displayed.More about Collections and Specimens
The diversity of both the Museum's collections and its staff has, to Robin, been one of the most enjoyable aspects of his working life. He describes his research on the brachiopods collection as a 'jigsaw puzzle' with a third of the pieces missing, and emphasises the satisfaction in curating specimens that he has himself collected.
Since his retirement in 1998, Robin continues to work in the Palaeontology Department, not only because of his passion for the collections but also to witness the various changes in Museum displays and how visitors can enjoy the millions of specimens exhibited.
Robin joined the Department of Palaeontology in 1965. His research interests were principally in Lower Palaeozoic stratigraphy and continental positions, palaeo-ecology, and engineering geology. He rapidly progressed through the ranks to the position of Keeper in 1986.
Robin explains the differences in how the collections are displayed.

Massage After Lymph Node Dissection
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
Can I get a massage if I had lymph node dissection or have lymphedema?
Andrea Richtel-Branas, MSE, MPT, Lead Therapist at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Massage itself is not indicated to treat lymphedema. Deep tissue massage in the quadrant where someone had an AND (axillary node dissection) can increase their risk for lymphedema. In addition, there are massage therapists who do "Lymphatic drainage" and there are some who do "Complete Decongestive Therapy/CDT". The problem with lymphatic drainage is that the therapists are typically only taught how to treat an intact lymphatic system. People who have lymphedema secondary to cancer treatments do not have intact lymphatic systems. If the massage therapist does not know how to handle the damaged lymphatic system, they can cause more harm than good. Massage therapists who have CDT training are great, there just aren't enough of them in the world.
You should visit the NLN website to find a certified therapist. As I discussed above, if the massage therapist is going to treat the lymphedema, then they need to be trained as a CLT. If they are just giving massage, then they need to know enough to avoid the area at risk or with lymphedema.
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series. See the full transcript of Integrating Complementary Therapies into Your Cancer Care.

The Yellow Cab Man An inventor's unbreakable... MORE > $15.96 Regularly $19.99 Buy Now
powered by AFI
Brief Synopsis
An inventor's unbreakable glass attracts the attention of businessmen and gangsters.
While crossing a busy intersection in Los Angeles, Augustus "Red" Pirdy, an accident-prone inventor who has devoted his life to safety, is struck by a taxicab. Although Red is not seriously injured in the accident, the Yellow Cab Co., fearing a lawsuit, sends its claims adjuster, Ellen Goodrich, to discuss a settlement with Red. Red admits that the accident was his fault and is about to sign a document that will absolve the company of any responsibility when Martin Creavy, an unscrupulous attorney, tries to persuade him to reconsider. Creavy suggests that Red instead sue the cab company for a large sum of money, but Red rejects his advice. When Red reveals that he has invented a special type of unbreakable glass, which he calls "Elastiglass," Ellen and Creavy see the potential in Red's discovery and begin vying for his confidence. Red eventually decides to put his trust in Ellen when she suggests that he try to sell his glass to the Yellow Cab Co. for the manufacture of safety windshields. Creavy, however, does not give up, and the following day he uses blackmail to force Willis Tomlin, a Yellow Cab Co. executive, to help him sabotage Red's efforts to sell his patent to the cab company. As part of his plan, Creavy arranges to have Tomlin replace the Elastiglass with regular glass just before Red demonstrates his invention for the cab company. Because of the switch, the demonstration ends in disaster and Ellen is demoted to the company's lost and found department. Later, Mickey Corkins hires Red to be a cab driver with the company, hoping that will get a second chance to demonstrate his invention. Though Red bungles his first attempts at driving a cab, Mickey persists in training him, and he eventually becomes a licensed Yellow Cab driver. Creavy, meanwhile, devises a plan to force Red to reveal his Elastiglass formula and sends one of his accomplices to frame Red in a taxicab accident. After the "accident," Creavy volunteers to act as Red's attorney, and has Dr. Byron Dokstedder, another one of his accomplices, pose as a psychiatrist sent to examine Red. Dokstedder tries to use hypnosis to force Red to reveal the secret of his unbreakable glass, but the session is interrupted when a sprinkler system in Red's living room is accidentally activated and the apartment is flooded. Meanwhile, at the cab company, Willis tells Ellen about the switched glass and vows to arrange another demonstration for Red. Ellen, who has fallen in love with Red, later tells him the good news at a home furnishings trade show, but Red is distracted by Dokstedder's hypnotic suggestions to avoid Ellen. After leaving the show, Red is knocked unconscious by Creavy's accomplice, Hugo, and is given an injection of truth serum to make him talk. Red, however, manages to escape by creating a diversion, and races to the Yellow Cab Co, where he discovers Willis murdered. Because Dokstedder had planted the idea in his mind that he was planning to kill Willis, Red becomes deeply confused and begins to believe himself to be the murderer. While Ellen and Mickey search for Red, Creavy and Dokstedder find Red and inject him with more truth serum. Red reveals the secret formula, but when he continues his drug-induced chatter and explains that he has proof that Creavy was responsible for Willis' death, Creavy decides to kill Red and dispose of his body at the home funishings trade show. By coincidence, Mickey and Ellen are at the trade show auditorium searching for Red just as Creavy and his men are about to kill him. Ellen is captured by one of Creavy's men, but she and Red manage to escape by driving a car onto the main floor of the trade show. As a wild chase ensues throughout the auditorium, Mickey summons a brigade of cab drivers, who arrive in time to save Ellen and Red. Creavy and his men are eventually apprehended, and Red finally gets a second chance to demonstrate his Elastiglass.
