Gerard Butler produced one of the worst Irish accents of all time in 'PS I Love You', so why is he now playing a leprechaun, asks Stephen Milton
Well bejaysus and begorrah, Hollywood's not been the kindest to us Irish.
To be sure, they've only managed to butcher and botch the brogue at every attempt, from Tom Cruise's TooraLooralar-ish in 'Far and Away' to the blustering blarney of 'Leap Year', which was surely enough to sever diplomatic ties – even if it's exactly how we're expected to behave during The Gathering.
But beyond the horror of Brad Pitt's ex-IRA gunman in 'The Devil's Own', and the terror of Sean Connery's twitterings in 'Darby O'Gill', we'll always come back to Gerard Butler in 'PS I Love You'.
Not because his performance was one of the worst attempts at an Irish accent ever committed to the big screen. It's rather because he's conveniently sitting in front of us, head cupped in his hands, wailing in remorse for the massacre of our beautiful accent.
And, let's face it, we're not going to have Cruise or Connery doing the same.
"Why are you doing this to me?" the handsome Scot cries, playfully rocking in his seat. "Every time I try to move on, I try to get past what I did – it just keeps coming back to haunt me."
Wiping a faux tear away, Butler flashes a wicked grin, the very one that's made up for the dodgy accents and the frequent dubious script choices such as 'The Bounty Hunter' and 'The Ugly Truth'.
In the case of Cecelia Ahern's first crack of the Hollywood whip, the Paisley-born actor, all rippling muscle and impossible masculinity, acknowledges his grotesque mistake. And, frankly, it's part of his charm.
"I'm the first one to say, it wasn't the best attempt," he says. "It came across like more of a caricature and it wasn't going to win me any awards.
"But, in my defence, there were a couple of Irish guys and girls on set. So where were the helpful tips?"
A relative late bloomer in Tinseltown circles, Butler was nearly 34 – a veritable geriatric by industry standards – before Joel Schumacher cast the unknown in his big-screen adaptation of 'Phantom of the Opera', which ultimately crashed and burned.
It was his hulking turn as King Leonidas in mythological comic-book smash '300' that really put Butler on the map – as well as a then little-known Michael Fassbender.
Butler has since cultivated an action-man image with Guy Ritchie's 'RocknRolla', 'Law Abiding Citizen', and a decent turn in last year's flawed biopic, 'Machine Gun Preacher'.
While we'll see him later this year in Antoine Fuqua's 'Olympus Has Fallen', protecting the US president and White House from Korean terrorists, Butler's next film sees the 43-year-old star embark on a bold, some might say rather foolish, path, playing a foul-mouthed leprechaun in 'Movie 43'.
A mish-mash of 12 film shorts featuring a who's who of Hollywood, from Halle Berry to Richard Gere, Naomi Watts and Emma Stone, Butler takes on the dual role of twin leprechaun brothers, with matching local brogues, who become increasingly hostile and violent after one of them is kidnapped by former 'Jackass' star Johnny Knoxville and Seann William Scott.
So is this a vain attempt to eradicate the memory of 'PS I Love You' with a more memorable performance?
"Well, the way I see it, I made a terrible botch of the Irish accent once, so it can't get any worse as a leprechaun surely," he chuckles, planking his scuffed Timberlands on a coffee table in an airy suite in London's Corinthia Hotel.
"It literally was one day's work and I'm very happy with how it turned out. But you have to be clear; it's one of those things that needs to be seen to be believed.
"And hey, at least it'll make the Irish part of me proud. It doesn't get more patriotic than playing a leprechaun," he adds.
Currently romancing Romanian model Madalina Ghenea, reportedly 'the one' to have finally tamed the notorious ladies' man, Butler still can't quite get to grips with the Oscar-winning A-list talent involved in the movie.
"This is a film full of the most sick, outrageous ideas that people will either deplore or really dig, or at least appreciate. I cannot believe the pool of talent or what they got them to do, from Halle Berry to Hugh Jackman to Kate Winslet," he says.
"I mean, the Hugh Jackman bit, he basically has... well, let's say for PC's sake, a part of the male anatomy coming out of his neck. This is Hugh Jackman – I don't know how they got him to do it."
One star who couldn't be persuaded, however, was Colin Farrell, initially cast as Butler's leprechaun brother.
"And conveniently, he couldn't make it. 'Oh no, I think I need to cut my toenails' may have been the excuse," the actor roars with laughter. "It's like, c'mon Colin, you saw sense and backed out, admit it.
"So after that, there was the brother role to fill, so I just said, 'I'll play the other brother; I'm making a fool of myself once, I may as well make a fool of myself twice'."
"But hey, Colin missed out," he continues. "I had a great time making it. I got to play a leprechaun and throw down a few fists and moves and spew the most vile language you're likely to hear. It was a blast."
A trained lawyer from Glasgow University, Butler kicked the bar and headed south to London to pursue acting, landing a string of minor roles in 'Tomorrow Never Dies', 'Mrs Brown', and a stint filming in Wicklow with Matthew McConaughey for 'Reign Of Fire', an experience he calls "magic".
When Hollywood came a-knocking, a sociable Gerard became well-known for his partying, which quickly eclipsed his work on screen, much of it derided by the critics.
More famously, however, the actor sealed his reputation as an unrepentant ladies' man after many, many reported dalliances including Jennifer Aniston, Ashley Greene and Cameron Diaz.
Happily ensconced in what seems to be his longest-standing relationship to date with Ghenea, a subject he's reluctant to be drawn on, Butler admits to a shift in his priorities.
"I can see how easily someone in the game goes off the rails," he says. "The money's being thrown at you, the fans, the adoring fans, you're constantly being praised and it's hard to stay grounded.
"And it doesn't matter what age you are when you start or when success hits. I was that bit older than some of the young fry setting off now and it doesn't make any difference.
"There are a lot of privileges and opportunities taken for granted in this game, until you sit back and realise it's a good life. And I see that. I see I have a very good life; one that I like to slow down now and enjoy."
And it's never any harm to have a reputation that zings with the ladies.
"Well, there's certainly worse to be said about a person, isn't there?" he says.
Gerard, or Gerry as he prefers to be known – "because no one says 'Gerard' correctly in the States," he snaps – feels as if he's also embarking on a new direction in his career, with plans to start filming on Holocaust drama 'Dynamo', charting the Ukrainian uprising against the Nazis.
Is this perhaps related to his near-death experience in Hawaii in 2011 when the actor was sucked under a wave and remained under water for three minutes?
"Maybe, and that certainly was a life-changing moment for me, but whether it's directly affected where I go with my career, I don't know," he says.
"I'm not sure if I'm that calculated. Maybe I should be sitting down with a blueprint for how to win an Oscar. Maybe that should have flashed before my eyes when I was down in the water.
"All I know was that moment put the fear of God into me, made me realise how precious it all is."
Butler seems so nonchalant in his laid-back humour, it's difficult to ever imagine him agonising over a lack of industry acclaim. Does he ever find himself day-dreaming of a golden statuette?
"All the time," he smirks, "the whole shampoo-bottle job. No, not really. I mean it would be lovely, wouldn't it? So many say they aren't bothered, but it's a lovely recognition for your work.
"I think every actor has a moment where they think, 'That'd be nice'. But we'll see down the line, who knows? Although one thing's for certain: it's not going to happen for playing a leprechaun."

M.G. Bryan Equipment Co., a leading heavy equipment and machinery OEM for the oil and gas industry, is using cloud computing for remote asset management of high-tech fracturing equipment. Designed and integrated with Rockwell Automation, M.G. Bryan's new equipment's control and information system leverages Microsoft Corp.'s Windows Azure cloud-computing platform to help provide secure remote access to real-time information, automated maintenance alerts, and service and parts delivery requests. With Rockwell Automation, M.G. Bryan designed a simple, user-friendly system using the cloud to improve productivity and business intelligence.
"Fracturing vehicles operate in extreme, isolated environments," said Matt Bryan, president, M.G. Bryan. "They typically require new oil filters every 200 hours and complete engine rebuilds after 4,000 to 5,000 hours of service. Leveraging the cloud, we can cost-effectively keep tabs on our equipment and help customers maximize asset uptime, dramatically improving their return on investment."
Rockwell Automation upgraded M.G. Bryan's fracturing equipment with a tightly integrated control and information system that brings together disparate information sources, including historical, relational and transactional data. To fully leverage this rich data without requiring M.G. Bryan or its customers to build and manage their own data centers, Rockwell Automation turned to cloud computing. Using mobile technology and the seamless transfer of business information over the cloud, M.G. Bryan has access to a higher degree of connected intelligence, enabling new levels of customer service in this industry.
"Our alliance with Microsoft explores industrial uses for the cloud to open the door for our customers' innovations," said Sujeet Chand, chief technology officer, Rockwell Automation. "For M.G. Bryan, the cloud offers a highly scalable, cost-efficient method for storing and remotely accessing real-time information that will help extend equipment lifecycles and optimize productivity. Focusing on building solutions that consider productivity, user-friendliness and connected intelligence in a scalable platform is how we leverage the pillars of Microsoft's Discrete Industry Reference Architecture. We see this as an attractive solution for many other equipment builders and end users around the world."

Obama's new issues: Investigations
If he wasn't having enough trouble with the budget, sequestration, immigration and gun control, President Obama now faces the bane of many a second-term predecessor: congressional investigations.
The promise of more investigations arose Friday after a report that State Department officials edited "talking points" about the attack Sept. 11 on a U.S. diplomatic building in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans and an apology by an IRS official that the agency had given extra, undue scrutiny to conservative Tea Party groups.
ANALYSTS: Questions remain despite Benghazi testimony
MORE: GOP reaction in IRS case spurs calls for probe, apology
Friday's one-two punch of bad news made it one of the most troubling days of Obama's tenure, although he has weathered tough times before, such as the collapse in July 2011 of a planned "grand bargain" with Republicans on the budget and the subsequent downgrade of the nation's credit rating.
Republican lawmakers took to news shows Sunday to pledge aggressive investigations of two items: the attack in Benghazi and the Internal Revenue Service's admission that conservative groups were targeted during the 2012 election.
Benghazi has been a long-running dispute, and Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., told ABC's This Week that a special select committee needs to investigate the "unanswered questions" and interview "everybody" surrounding the attack.
"I don't know what level of scandal — quote, unquote — this rises to, but I know it rises to the level where it requires a full and complete ventilation of these facts," McCain said.
Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., said Congress also needs to look at the IRS admission, telling Fox News Sunday, "I don't care if you're a conservative or a liberal, a Democrat or a Republican — this should send a chill up your spine. This is something that we cannot let stand. It needs to have a full investigation."
White House officials have expressed concern about IRS targeting of groups with "tea party" and "patriot" in their names, but they criticized Republicans for politicizing the attack on Benghazi that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
The Obama administration would not be the first to have to grapple with investigations in the second term.
Watergate during the Richard Nixon administration. Iran-contra during Ronald Reagan's second term. The Monica Lewinsky affair during the Bill Clinton years. The investigation into the outing of a once-undercover CIA officer during George W. Bush's presidency. It seems like investigations have become a way of life for second-term presidents.
"After the election, the president said he was familiar with the literature on second-term difficulties," presidential historian Michael Beschloss told The Washington Post. "We scholars may be about to see whether knowledge of that history can help a president when they begin to strike."
Many congressional Republicans say the White House initially tried to cover up evidence that the attack in Benghazi was organized by a terrorist group. Obama officials initially attributed the attack to protests of an anti-Islam film. The GOP has zeroed in on administration editing of "talking points" that preceded Sunday show appearances by United Nations Ambassador Susan Rice five days after the attacks.
"The American people were effectively lied to," said Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., who conducted last week's Benghazi hearings as chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform committee. Issa appeared on NBC's Meet the Press.
Issa and other Republicans have raised questions about security lapses at Benghazi and the U.S. response while the attack was going on.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said officials spoke about what they knew when they knew it, and the facts changed as the initial investigation progressed. "The talking points were focused on what we knew and not speculation about what may or may not have been responsible or related," he said.
Carney said the GOP investigation of Benghazi is more about politics than fact-finding.
"I think efforts to refight the political battles of the past are not looked upon kindly by a majority of Americans," Carney said.
The Benghazi investigation could affect someone who might seek the presidency in 2016: former secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
As for the other investigation, Carney stressed that the IRS is a non-partisan organization with only two political appointees and that the White House supports the agency's investigation of the matter.
"We would fully expect the investigation to be thorough and for corrections to be made in a case like this," Carney said. "And I believe the IRS has addressed that and has taken some action, and there is an investigation ongoing."
Rogers and other congressional Republicans said an outside investigation is needed. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, told CNN's State of the Union that Obama himself "needs to make crystal clear that this is totally unacceptable."
Beschloss, the presidential historian, told the Post, "What we've seen in the past week reignites the question scholars ask about problematic second terms ...
"Is it mainly a coincidence that every president of the past 80 years has had a hard time after getting re-elected? Or is it somehow baked into the structure of a second-term presidency that some combination of serious troubles is going to happen?"

Cage temps change tumor growth in mice
Courtesy of Kathleen Kokolus and Sandra Sexton
Lab mice kept in cool cages grow tumors faster than those living in balmier conditions.
Mice living in cages with temperatures of about 30° Celsius had better control of tumor growth than rodents kept at about 22°, the mandated temperature for lab mice. When kept in warmer cages, the lab mice had more killer T cells active in the diseased tissue and fewer cells that suppressed the immune system, scientists report November 18 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Cooler cage temperatures may cause the mice to experience cold stress, which would divert energy from an anticancer immune response toward producing body heat. This may influence the animals' responses to experimental cancer therapies that target the immune system, the authors suggest.


text: Help! My triplets were delivered by c-section 10 weeks ago. They were initially not quite strong enough to latch well, so I started pumping immediately. I had the help of a lactation consultant to teach me how and fit the equipment, but from the beginning it has been painful. My babies rarely get the opportunity to nurse but I would have loved for that to have been more the case. I think the pain has kept my milk supply very low and prevents me from pumping as frequently as I should. I've tried changing flange sizes, my industrial strength pump is on it's lowest setting and have consulted 2 lactation consultants who are completely baffled and have essentially given up on me. I was given Nystatin and used it for a day or two, but since my babies are almost never on the breast, have no symtoms and my breasts showed no improvement, I stopped using it. I am only able to produce enough to give my babies one supplement of breast milk a day and with the amount of pain, I'm beginning to wonder if such a small amount is even providing much protection for them. I have no cracks or blisters and use nipple cream or an olive oil based version consistently. I don't have deep breast pain, but deep nipple pain when first turning on the machine. I have to squeeze both breasts and bear through the pain for the first 2 minutes or so, then I can usually tolerate the pain level a little better. They are equally painful and are tender and achy after pumping. Because of some complications with my kidneys after delivery I had to stop taking ibuprofen, which helped some, and now can only use Tylenol, which helps very little. I'm completely at a loss and feel like I've tried everything. I mentioned it to my Dr. at my postpartum visit and she had no ideas to offer. I'm running out of options and the pain seems to just be getting worse. I don't want to quit because I know premature babies (& 3 babies in one house sharing germs) need all the extra immune help they can get! Any suggestions would be tremendously appreciated!

Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Michael Chabon ("The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay") reflected on 2012's cultural highlights and currents in a conversation from his home in Berkeley.
What were your favorite books this year?
I really loved my friend Dave Eggers' latest book, "A Hologram for the King." That was probably my favorite of all the new books that I read. He's written some incredible works of imaginative projection in his last couple of books. Very impressive works, but they're pretty serious. Not that "A Hologram for the King" isn't a serious book; it has a lot of serious themes, but it also made me laugh out loud while I was reading it many times.
I know that you always strive to entertain. Do you think "entertainment" has become a dirty word among purveyors of high culture?
Sure, and with good reason, in the sense that most of what gets labeled "entertainment" is really terrible. We get the entertainment we deserve. To me, being entertained is having your mind engaged with the work of art on multiple levels. So I think a lot of what gets passed off as entertainment really does not qualify for that definition. It's merely diverting at most.

Saturday morning in the NCAA South Regional Qualifier in Tuscaloosa, Ala., the Bisons finished 16th out of 26 teams and the Lady Bisons were 19th out of 23 teams.
"Those are the highest men's and women's team finishes at the NCAA I South Regional Championship," said Taylor.
Senior Ryan Chastain crossed the finish line in 38th place for the Bisons with a time of 31:46.15, making him the highest finisher for the men's program in the NCAA I South Region meet.
"Our goal all season was to finish in the top 15," said Taylor. "That's where we have been ranked and we wanted to justify that ranking. We finished 16th, just 10 points behind 15th, with four freshmen in our top five and three of our regular top five not competing because of injury.
"Ryan ran tough today. It wasn't easy for him and I know it wasn't the race he wanted, but he fought through stuff to stay up there. He will be very tough to replace, but I think we have guys who can run up where Ryan has. I said that with a plural. The foundation is being set for a big future."
Helping to form that foundation for the future will be Tim Muller, Jeff Musick, Ashton Fisher and Mike Yang, the top four freshman finishers to the Bisons.
"There is certainly a lot of room to improve, however I feel like 16th is really incredible under the circumstances," said Taylor. "It's not easy for a freshman to face an NCAA I Regional Championship and a 10-k race, much less to put four freshmen out there.
"If the guys want to be an incredible program, they have shown they will have that opportunity. They have to want it, and from what I've seen I believe they do."
Junior Caitlin Anderson paced the Lady Bisons with a 77th place finish with a time of 22:34.74.
"Caitlin ran very strong," said Taylor. "She really fought hard."
The finish might have been even better for the Lady Bisons as a team had sophomore Catherine Beals not been forced to deal with an injury during the race. She was the Lady Bisons top finisher at the Atlantic Sun Conference Championships.
"Catherine had her hip lock up on her and went from second on the team very close to Caitlin, to seventh on the team with less than a mile to go I think," said Taylor. "She couldn't even walk after the race, but told me she was determined to finish for the team."
Anderson, sophomore Ashley Lehman, freshman Shelby Marvel, sophomore Louisa Van Batavia and freshman Priya Pappu all set person records for a 6-kilometer race.
"We've had five all-time PR's in both championship races this year," said Taylor. "It's a very good way to finish the season. I'm proud of the way the women resurrected the season.
"They moved from being a team all year of individuals trying to survive to a team that has started to learn what it means to fight for each other. I'm pleased with the direction we are headed now."
But like the men's team Taylor is going to be expecting even more from the women's team next season.
"We still have a lot of work to do and a long way to go," said Taylor. "I expect to take big steps forward this off-season and through the track season. We are moving in a very positive direction now, but we must keep moving, growing and building."

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The nationally-ranked No. 5 MIT men's basketball team erased a 13-point deficit with stingy defense and timely shooting to defeat Babson College, 59-47, in New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) action on Wednesday night in Rockwell Cage. The Engineers held the Beavers without a field goal for a 12:22 stretch in the second half and limited Babson to just 15 points after the intermission to improve to 21-1 and 9-1 in the NEWMAC. Babson drops to 11-12 and 4-6 in the conference after losing its third straight league game.
Junior Mitchell Kates (Colts Neck, N.J.) led all scorers with 13 points while playing all 40 minutes. The point guard also dished out five assists and grabbed four rebounds. Senior Noel Hollingsworth (Salt Lake City, Utah) was in double figures with 10 points to go along with four rebounds. Junior Will Tashman (Atherton, Calif.) finished one point shy of a double-double, grabbing 10 boards.
Junior Russell Braithwaite (Brooklyn, N.Y.) picked up double figure points and rebounds, finishing with 10 and 12, respectively, while also stuffing the stat sheet with five steals and three assists. Marcus McDermott (Milton, Mass.) was the high-scorer for Babson with 12 points.
McDermott's jumper at the 16:03 mark of the second half gave Babson its largest lead of the night at 40-27. From there the Tech defense dug in, holding the visitors scoreless for nearly 10 minutes and limiting them to just two field goals the rest of the way.
The Cardinal and Gray slowly chipped away at the deficit midway through the period, as senior Daniel McCue (Hampden, Maine) knocked down a three-pointer from the wing to close the gap to six, 40-34, and force a Babson timeout with 13:28 to play. Tashman would then convert a tough layup on Tech's next possession before canning a jumper a few minutes later to get his team within two.
After three Babson free throws by David Mack (Holden, Mass.) stretched the lead back to five, MIT responded with eight straight points on a layup from Hollingsworth and back-to-back three-pointers from senior Jamie Karraker (Morgantown, W. Va.) and McCue to put the hosts on top for the first time all night.
The MIT defense would force Babson into five turnovers down the stretch and convert some key free-throws to hold on for its 21st win of the season.
Babson jumped out to a quick 10-3 lead and took a 32-25 advantage into the intermission thanks to eight first-half points from Braithwaite and Alex Rudolph (Bal Harbour, Fla.).
The Engineers shot an uncharacteristic 15-for-26 from the foul line but made 11-of-12 down the stretch to seal the win. After allowing Babson to make 14-of-24 first-half shots, the Cardinal and Gray held its opponent to 28.6% field goal shooting in the second.
MIT will hit the road for its final two games of the regular season, traveling to central Massachusetts to take on a pair of Worcester-area foes. Tech will play at Clark University on Saturday at 3:00 p.m. and faces WPI in the season-finale on Wednesday, February 15 at 7:00 p.m. Babson will face Wheaton College next Wednesday at home.

A task force mandated by President Barack Obama in the wake of Hurricane Sandy and charged with developing a strategy for rebuilding areas damaged by the devastating storm has issued a report recommending 69 policy initiatives, most focused on a simple warning: Plan for future storms in an age of climate change and rising sea levels.
The report released Aug. 19 by the Hurricane Sandy Rebuilding Task Force says coastal communities should assume floods are going to happen more frequently and realize that spending more now on protective measures could save money later.
It calls for development of a more advanced electrical grid less likely to be crippled in a crisis, and the creation of better planning tools and standards for communities rebuilding storm-damaged areas.
"Decision-makers at all levels must recognize that climate change and the resulting increase in risks from extreme weather have eliminated the option of simply building back to outdated standards and expecting better outcomes after the next extreme event," the report says.
On one vital issue related to insurance, the task force had no easy solution.
It noted that because of reforms to the financially distressed National Flood Insurance Program that began before the storm, many thousands of people who live in low-lying areas will likely see significant premium increases if they don't lift their homes up on pilings. The task force said that for many homeowners, both options will be unaffordable. It recommended further study of that dilemma.
Some of the group's key recommendations are already being implemented, including the creation of new flood-protection standards for major infrastructure projects built with federal money and the promotion of a sea-level modeling tool that will help builders and engineers predict where flooding might be an issue in the future.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (August 25, 2011) – The ETSU volleyball squad will get its 2011 campaign underway this weekend when it travels to Greensboro, N.C. for the UNCG Invitational on August 26-27 at Fleming Gymnasium.
The Bucs will play four matches during the weekend as they open with Evansville at 3 p.m. on Friday and then UNC Greensboro at 7 p.m. ETSU will then turn around and play North Carolina A&T on Saturday at 11 a.m. and will close the tournament against Coastal Carolina at 5 p.m.
ETSU returns five letterwinners, including two starters and its libero, from a squad that advanced to its first ever trip to the Atlantic Sun Conference tournament final. Highlighting the list of returning players are senior middle blocker Jamie Stancliff (Advance, N.C.), senior libero Kiley Tamblyn (Torrance, Calif.) and sophomore outside hitter Megan Devine (Kingsport, Tenn.). Stancliff finished the 2010 season ranked second in the league in blocks at 1.07 per set, while Tamblyn led the team and ranked third in the A-Sun in digs with 4.20 per set. Meanwhile, Devine was the 2010 Atlantic Sun Freshman of the Year after leading the Bucs in kills and points. In addition, senior McKayla Barber (Columbus, Ind.) is back after being plagued by an injury for much of last season. Barber still managed to record 123 kills and 52 blocks during the 2010 season.
The Bucs went 26-9 with a 7-3 Atlantic Sun record in 2010. The 26 wins were the most for the program since the 1978 season. In addition to the five returnees, ETSU welcomes seven highly touted newcomers to the squad.
For fans unable to attend the tournament in Greensboro, live stats will be available throughout the tournament on UNCGSpartans.com.
Scouting the Opponents
Evansville enters the weekend fresh off a 17-13 overall record in 2010. The Purple Aces return 10 letterwinners and six starters from last year's squad that finished seventh in the Missouri Valley Conference. Evansville returns its top attacker from last season in outside hitter Brooke Maher. Maher finished the 2010 season by leading the team in kills (331), while finishing second on the squad in service aces (18) and digs (322). The Purple Aces also return middle hitter Kaisi Nixon as she led the 2010 squad in blocks (91), while also recording 233 kills and an attack percentage of .249. Evansville leads the all-time series against ETSU 3-2. The two teams last met in 2006 with Evansville winning 3-2.
UNC Greensboro is coming off a solid 22-12 season in 2010. The Spartans also advanced to the Southern Conference semifinals. UNCG returns libero Kellie Orewiler, who was named to the SoCon All-Freshman Team and Ariel Newman, who led the team in kills per set (2.97). The squad also returns setter Ari Lysacek, who led the squad in assists. ETSU faced UNCG last year in the Buccaneer Classic with the Bucs pulling out a 3-1 victory. ETSU leads the all-time series against UNCG 13-7.
North Carolina A&T is one year removed from a tough 2-31 campaign. The Aggies do return their top attacker from a year ago in sophomore Jeana Daniels. Daniels led the squad in both kills (146) and blocks (65). N.C. A&T just recently announced the hiring of new head coach Earl Hilton, who was an assistant coach at Elon for the past six seasons. The Bucs lead the all-time series against the Aggies 3-0. The two teams last met in 2006 with ETSU earning a 3-1 victory.
Coastal Carolina enters the 2011 season following a 14-18 overall record last season. The Chanticleers return eight letterwinners and four starters from last season's squad, while also adding six newcomers. Erika Lightsey is a key returner for Coastal Carolina after finishing second on the squad in kills (267) and third in digs (296). ETSU defeated Coastal Carolina on the final day of the season opening Deacon Invitational last year, 3-0. The Bucs lead the all-time series against the Chanticleers 3-2.

Spina bifida is a type of birth defect. It is a problem with how the spine and spinal cord develop. Spina bifida can begin to develop in a fetus before the mother even knows she is pregnant. In some cases, structures that should be inside the spinal canal can slip out. The structures affected may include:
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
There are 3 kinds of spina bifida:
The cause of spina bifida is not known. There is a strong genetic factor for some with spina bifida.
Many studies have also shown a link between a low folate diet in the mother and birth defects. In particular, low folate diets are associated with an increased risk of spina bifida.
This condition is more likely in females. Other factors that increase the risk of spina bifida include:
Occulta may not have any symptoms. Some with this type may never know they have spina bifida. There may be a small tuft of hair or skin discoloration over the low back.
The immediate symptoms of meningocele and myelomeningocele include:
Infants and children with meningocele or myelomeningocele spina bifida may also experience long-term symptoms such as:
A blood test of the mother before birth can predict the risk of spina bifida. If the test predicts a high risk of neural tube defects, then 2 more tests may be done:
A diagnosis before birth can help you and your doctor make plans. Surgery may be needed soon after birth.
After birth, meningocele and myelomeningocele are usually found on physical exam. Many tests will be needed to find out which bones and nerves are involved. The kidneys may also be damaged. They will need to be watched closely.
Most children with occulta spina bifida will never be diagnosed. This condition rarely causes any symptoms. It also has few complications. It may be discovered during a routine medical exam. It may also be found following
of the lower back.
Occulta spina bifida requires no treatment.
Meningocele spina bifida is treated with surgery. It is done to remove the cyst. This form of spina bifida can be treated.
Treatment for myelomeningocele spina bifida is complicated. It may include surgery to place the nerves and spinal cord back in place, physical therapy for any physical problems, and supportive care for any other complications. Treatments for myelomeningocele may include:
During surgery, the nerves, membrane, and spinal cord are put back into place. It will be done within 24-48 hours after birth. In some cases, the surgery may be done before birth.
Surgery is done as early as possible to prevent further nerve damage. It cannot reverse damage that has already occurred.
More serious forms of spina bifida may require more surgeries throughout childhood.
Therapists will teach parents how to exercise the infant's legs and feet. Walkers, braces, and crutches will often be needed to let the baby move around.
Complications of spina bifida can be ongoing and extensive. It will be important for you to work with a team of doctors. It is important for you to get help for your child's physical needs and emotional support for you and your family.
To help reduce the chance that your baby will be born with spina bifida:

I'm having a lot of difficulty packing enough veggies into my bentos. I love carrots, raw or cooked, so I make carrot kinpira quite a lot (thanks Maki!) but I need more greens. I love asparagus, but it never is even remotely palatable after it cools down in my bento. I detest broccoli- no matter how I try to like it I just can't stomach it- so always seeing it in bento pictures makes me sad. Isn't there anything else I can pack for a nice, balanced, GREEN bento? If you have any recipes or tips for packing veggies (especially greens) that don't taste gross after sitting for a while, please post them here!
My own suggestions (and those of others) were covered in this thread
(I can't stand calabrese broccoli either, but the Heston Blumenthal method is exceptional and it's still the only way I can enjoy this loathed vegetable - EDIT, sorry, should have added that you can substitute other oils for the butter in his recipe to make it vegan and it still works)
Thanks. I searched but somehow missed that.
I'm getting ready to make steamed green beans (haricot verts, actually) with a splash of ponzu--my husband especially loves this. I love it because I can keep frozen beans on hand. For two servings, you only need about 1 tsp of ponzu. A little goes a long way.
I also just tried Maki's braised potatoes, kale, and bacon recipe earlier this week, and it was a hit! I think you could just make the kale with bacon.
Other green veggies I like in bentos: braised swiss chard (Maki has recipes), blanched spinach with a sauce of sesame seeds, soy sauce, and sugar (eat this one cold), snow peas as part of a stir-fry, and braised bok choy and mushrooms (seasoned with garlic and soy sauce).
I love leftover Scarlet Runner beans. They are my very favourite vege, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that you mostly grow them for the flowers in America. They have a much firmer texture when cooked than French beans do.
My blog is Food and Shoes
I must say that I am NOT a fan of broccoli, but have put it in my bento anyway. A couple pieces done up with the wasabi from one of Maki's posts makes the stuff more edible. I have to steam it and split a head in half as my son won't eat the wasabi broccoli. Other than that, my green standbys are blanched spinach or snap peas.
If you like carrots I'd suggest mixing raw carrots with daikon (pickled radish), the sweetness of carrots goes well with the sour taste of the radish. keeps well in the fridge for ages if you put in a air tight container.
I definitely like snow peas--they have such a satisfying crunch if they're not cooked too long. And, in general, people need a lot more of the kinds of vitamins that come in leafy greens like spinach and kale. My roomate and I love spinach sauteed with butter and garlic--not the healthiest, but tasty (although I dunno how it would taste at room temperature, but warm it has a taste very similar to asparagus, in my opinion). Good luck. :)
Onaka ga suiteiru!
the pea burgers are really really good and adding them subtly into your food really helps bring up your count
I am a bit late answering on this one, but here are some green-specific bento fillers:
If you like asparagus, it can be super-delicious in a bento, IF it isn't overcooked. I saute the asparagus (never thick stalks) in sesame oil, with garlic and sesame seeds until it turns bright green, then IMMEDIATELY remove it. If I have fresh lemon, I spritz a bit on when the cooking is compete. This cooks it, but leaves enough texture that it can stand being reheated. It is also quite yummy at room temperature or straight from the fridge.
Kale, chard and spinach are excellent with eggs. Saute a bit with onions or garlic and then mix with egg, a splash of milk (or milk substitute) and maybe some cheese. Place in a casserole or even better, a muffin pan and bake at about 350 until set. You have mini-frttatas with veggies. This is how I hide broccoli from myself. These freeze really well too, especially if you use muffin tins.
Also, zucchini sliced raw is great. If you need to reheat your bento in a microwave, if you bit it in a silicone cup with a couple drops of water, it steams nicely (though is a bit bland steamed). There are small spring squashes that are green and yellow and look a bit like flowers. These are delicious roasted in pesto. But then again, anything is (including chard, kale, spinach and zucchini) and can go alongside rice or pasta.
Hope these give you some ideas!
I've been looking for more ways to get veggies in, too! Greens in particular. Here's one that's a creative and delicious twist on peas that i've tried and love:
Here's a few for asparagus that i haven't tried but want to soon:
And this is one for cabbage (any color, I think) that I'm also looking forward to:
Just remember, the more colors you get, the more variety of vitamins and minerals. You don't have to have a green veggie every time for it to count, and you certainly don't have to settle for broccoli!!! Also remember that any pickled vegetables count, too, although they might be higher in sodium and more acidic than fresh veggies.
Here's a salad that I freeze in 1/2 cup servings and thaw to stick in my bento as needed:
1 cup grated carrots
1/2 cup raisins (steamed or boiled until plump)
A dressing can be easily made with mayonnaise and sugar with just a bit of vinegar, but the dressing doesn't hold up so well in the freezer. This salad is sweet and delicious, a perfect freezer joubisai!
Hope you find some more recipes!
I love broiled asparagus in a bento. Just throw the asparagus under the broiler for 10 minutes or so, until they develop a nice caramel color. Salt them and when they cool, I cut them into little bite size pieces and include a fishy of vinegar.
Some yummy salads that can be eaten hot or cold:
Garbanzos & Spinach:
Saute some onion in oil or butter til translucent, add garbanzo beans (chickpeas). Stir and heat until hot, then add spinach and cook until wilted. The end result should be about half garbanzos, and half spinach after the spinach shrinks down. I season this with either salt, pepper, and curry powder, or salt, pepper, fennel and caraway.
Sweet & Sour Cabbage:
Heat a couple tablespoons oil in a pan. Add 1-2T sugar. Cook and stir until sugar is carmelized. Add shredded red cabbage. Stir. Add 1-2T apple cider vinegar. Cook until slightly softened but still crunchy. Season with salt and caraway seeds.

Player of the Week
Sophomore Jordan Williams just continues to evoke high-praise from the powers that be (I'm referring to myself here). The meaty Maryland center has been curb-stomping his opponents all season long, and last week was no exception. In his last two games he's averaged 25 points on 69% shooting to go along with 13 rebounds per game. Using a combination of power and skill, Williams' back-to-the-basket game is simply overwhelming at this level of competition. His affinity for devouring smaller players in the post has earned him the Spanish nickname "Monstruo Deliciosa". Besides his new nickname, there really isn't much more to say about "Monstruo Deliciosa" that hasn't been said already. If he focuses on improving himself over the next few years and shows a commitment to staying in shape, then we're looking at a very nice NBA prospect down the road.

Player of the Week
Rick Jackson
Jackson may not have the flash or the scoring numbers, but his consistent play for the 5th ranked team in the country should get him some recognition. He's had a double double in all but 2 games, while leading the Big East in rebounding at 12.5 per contest. Against Michigan State, Jackson put up 17 points and 16 boards, providing the Orange with an inside force that can score in the post or off second chance opportunities. Shooting 58% from the floor, Jackson has been a big reason for the Orange early season success.
Darius Johnson-Odom
In a week of few games, it was pretty easy to pick out the cold player of the week. Congratulations Darius Johnson-Odom, your inspiring 1 for 9 performance at Wisconsin has earned you the worst performance of the week honors, and a third non-conference loss. Marquette is going to need DJO to get it going if they want to make a Big East run when conference play begins.

Part I — Old books and basements
I had dreamed about traveling to England, Scotland and Ireland to research genealogy and capture enough ambience to write a book. The dream started to come true when my sister and her husband said, "We're going to England." We decided to combine itineraries and go together.
I had been to England once before. I considered myself a veteran because I had taken a tour of London on a double-decker bus. While Debbie and Eddie visited the sights, I went digging for ancestors.
There's never enough time, as people who have been researching their families for decades can tell you. I narrowed my search to the family of Thomas English, my ninth great-grandfather who moved to Ireland in the 1600s. There I was in London, looking for Irish records.
I found them in the basement of St. Magnus the Martyr Church — English churches have creative names. I followed paper signs for the Irish Genealogical Research Society to a spiral stairway leading to the basement. I held onto the railing as I descended narrow stone steps. I ended up in a small library, where three faces looked up to register the newcomer.
The Society members were kind and helpful. As I pored through books, the lady asked me if I'd like some tea. It was rainy and chilly out, so I accepted gratefully. I expected a paper cup of warmth which I would sip quickly and then continue with my work, but she meant "Tea."
Everyone pushed their old books and research aside when she brought out a tray complete with teapot, milk, sugar, and "biscuits" (cookies). They chatted with each other as if sitting in a living room. It was an unexpected highlight of the trip.
I found mention of Thomas English in a book that was so old I was in heaven just to handle it. I love old books wherein an "s" looks like an "f" and the language is eloquent.
Thomas Wight's "History of the Rise and Progress of the People called Quakers in Ireland" recorded the meetings in Ireland and detailed many hardships that Quakers endured during that time.
It said that a (Quaker) meeting was started at the house of Thomas English in Moate in 1659.
I wasn't as lucky at the British Library, since the genealogical reading room was closed. But the Library had a museum of old books and manuscripts on display. I saw old Bibles, an early collection of Shakespeare, Beowulf, original sheets from Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland" and Jane Austen's childhood satire.
While the Englishes did not live in Scotland, my ancestress Mary Glendenning Hoggatt did (Mary of the Hoggatt House in High Point and the first grave at Springfield Friends).
After exploring Edinburgh Castle together, my family remained as tourists while I skipped off to be a scholar in the National Library of Scotland reading rooms.
For those who have never been in a reading room, it's a collection of books and records so wonderful or old that no one can check them out.
I found a marriage index record for Mary's parents, David and Margaret (1685), and a reference in the 1715 town minutes that David was to be paid 20 Scottish pounds per year to care for the town swans.
My favorite find in Scotland was in Inverness. I don't mean the Loch Ness — although yes, it was beautiful and no, we didn't see Nessie. I mean Leakey's Used Books. It was filled with books and more books, plus maps and a cafe upstairs. A bibliophile's dream.
I bought a collection about England's social history during Thomas English's lifetime.
Did I mention that I love books?

Filmmaker Alex Gibney's Lance Armstrong documentary isn't exactly going to be the comeback story the cyclist first imagined.
Produced by Sony Pictures and now set to come out later this year from Sony Pictures Classics, Gibney's film will be called "The Armstrong Lie," Sony said Wednesday.
"We set out to make a movie about a comeback — with unlimited and unprecedented access to Armstrong and the inner workings of the Tour de France. Along the way, we ended up chronicling the collapse of one of the greatest myths and legends of our time," producers Matt Tolmach and Frank Marshall said in a statement.
PHOTOS: Lance Armstrong through the years
Sony and Armstrong have a long relationship. For years, the studio developed a movie based on the cyclist's 2000 memoir, "It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life," which chronicled Armstrong's recovery from metastasized testicular cancer to his first Tour de France victory in 1999.
In 2009, Sony shifted gears, saying it would finance a documentary about the cyclist's return from retirement, following him as he competed in that year's Tour de France. Armstrong finished third, with worse news around the corner.
Last year, the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency charged Armstrong with using performance-enhancing drugs. Armstrong was banned from the sport and stripped of his seven Tour de France wins between 1999 and 2005.
In the middle of production on the documentary, Gibney (whose most recent film is "We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks") made a prophetic comment about how Armstrong, who tried to destroy people who accused him of cheating, protected his image.
"Maybe the most daunting part of telling this story is that Lance is so very good at telling his own story," Gibney said at the time. "There are levels within levels. He's a masterful producer-director of his own myth."

why do the US companies compete so much, what would happen if the talent from google, microsoft, redhat, oracle, ibm, sun, and many others shared resources to make IT (software, whatever) easy for the common man/woman. Not to be National (i.e. focused on the us as there are many nations that contribute to new technologies in the IT spectrum) But, to be blunt to all (all earthlings) would benefit from partnerships with differing ideas but shared resources, not separatist strategies. Too many times the focus is on money and if anyone is following this strategy it is microsale(soft). The industry age competition was based on competing over years of competitive development. For example, the car manufactures. That made sense 10-15 years ago. But in software and hardware development lifecycles; innovation can be driven in far greater lengths (shorter timeframes) by sharing ideas in real "shared" time to the benefit of all.
Quote: "Many minds are greater than one mind, although it takes a great mind to decipher the true path of the many. Still without the direction of the many the great mind will only see one path. A good one, but not
the right one."
If the human race (each individual) could fight their own greed issues we would all be happy. Please pass this on to your friends who fall into the big "G" category. I believe and U should to that if they realize this, they will change. If they don't then they shouldn't be your friend and everyone needs friends.

Three pitchers combined Sunday for the first no-hitter for South Carolina in nearly 37 years as USC swept Albany in a doubleheader.
COLUMBIA — Three pitchers combined Sunday for the first no-hitter for South Carolina in nearly 37 years as USC swept Albany in a doubleheader.
In Game 1, starter Colby Homes went six innings with three strikeouts and a walk, Forrest Koumas went two innings with three walks and a strikeout and Josh Knab let no one on base as he picked up the final three outs as South Carolina beat Albany 14-1 in the first game of a doubleheader.
Albany got its only run in the fourth inning on a leadoff walk, a throwing error and a sacrifice fly. The Great Danes (0-5) led 1-0 going into the bottom of the fifth before the Gamecocks (5-1) scored nine.
Sunday was the first South Carolina no-hitter since March 1975 when Ray Lavigne led South Carolina to an 8-0 win over George Mason.
In Game 2, USC stormed ahead with six runs in the first three innings on the way to a 6-4 victory.
Gamecocks starter Nolan Belcher allowed two runs on eight hits in six innings of work to pick up the win. He struck out seven and did not walk a batter.
Senior left-hander Tyler Webb recorded the final two outs of the game to pick up his second save of the year.
Albany starting pitcher Austin Chase suffered the loss, working four innings and allowing six runs, three earned, on seven hits with a pair of walks and four strikeouts.
LB Dantzler led the way for USC, going 3-for-4 with a RBI and two runs scored in Game 2. He was 9-for-13 in the series with 10 RBIs.
Clemson 7, Wright State 0: Scott Firth pitched eight scoreless innings of five-hit ball and the Tigers broke the game open with five two-out runs in the seventh inning in a win over Wright State. The Tigers, who swept the series 3-0 and improved to 6-0 all-time against Wright State, upped their record to 5-1 on the season.
With the win Clemson recorded back-to-back shutouts for the first time since 2009. Firth (2-0) allowed just five hits and two walks with four strikeouts. Shane Kennedy and Jay Baum each had two RBIs for the Tigers. In the first inning, Thomas Brittle led off with a walk and stole second. Later in the inning with two outs, Brittle scored on a wild pitch.
The Tigers added to their lead in the sixth inning when Steven Duggar (Byrnes) led off with a double to right field, Clemson's first hit of the game, then Steve Wilkerson reached on an infield single. Two batters later with one out, Jon McGibbon belted a 1-2 pitch off the wall in right field for a double to score Duggar.
In the seventh inning, the Tigers broke the game open with five runs. Garrett Boulware grounded a one-out single through the right side and went to third on Brittle's single through the right side. Later in the inning, Shane Kennedy came through with a single to right field to score Boulware and Duggar. Clemson's scoring ended when Jay Baum laced a double over the third-base bag to score Wilkerson and Kennedy, while McGibbon also scored when catcher Garrett Gray dropped the relay throw at the plate.
USC Upstate 9, George Washington 3: USC Upstate faced an early three-run deficit, but the offense exploded for nine unanswered runs to take down George Washington 9-3 and complete a three-game weekend sweep of the Colonials at Harley Park.
The Spartans (5-1) outscored the Colonials (0-5) by 13 runs in the three-game series. The only offense of the day for GWU came in the second inning when a walk and a crucial error led to three runs for the Colonials, who enjoyed their biggest lead of the year with the offensive output. Tyler Miller and Daniel Seeba each had three hits for the Spartans, with Miller tallying four RBIs. David Roseboom earned the win for Upstate. He allowed three runs, none earned, while striking out four.
Wofford 3-8, Pittsburgh 2-19: Wofford split a doubleheader with Pittsburgh at Russell C. King Field. In Game 1 the Terriers scored the winning run on a safety bunt by James Plaisted for a 3-2 win. Pittsburgh scored seven runs in the first and ninth innings of the second game on the way to a 19-8 victory.
Wofford (4-3) was led at the plate by Josh Hyman (Woodruff), Plaisted and Seth Neely, who each had three hits on the day.
North Greenville 4-6, Mount Olive College 7-4: In Mount Olive, N.C., the Crusaders split a doubleheader with Mount Olive College.
After losing Game 1, Andrew Lawrence led North Greenville to a victory in Game 2, pitching five innings while allowing two earned runs to earn the victory.

Note that this is NOT intended to be a discussion on the validity of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). I have my doubts on the theory, but nonetheless, I find it fun to discuss and think about. So with that said, I'll move on to the topic.
I had forgotten about MBTI for a good 2-3 years, but after the recent topic on personality -- http://www.crunchyroll.com/forumtopic-786549/what-is-your-personality-type -- I went on a bit of a research binge on MBTI, and got a little re-interested in figuring out types for some of my favorite characters. Given the significant popularity of MBTI, I thought it might be a topic that people are relatively knowledgeable about, so here I am. You can name a few of your favorite characters, and give your reasons, or just give a laundry list. Or maybe you want to type all the characters from a particular series. Whatever you want is cool -- the goal is just to give your opinion on the character's personality type. Of course, arguing is expected.
I may post more later, but here are the first ones that come to mind, and note that I tend to relate more to the TP characters, so there will probably be more of them:
Okabe Rintarou -- ESFP, I could see ESTP
Makise Kurisu -- INTP
Lelouch Lamperouge -- INTJ
Araragi Koyomi -- ESFP or ESTP
Hitagi Senjougahara -- ISTP, or maybe INTP
Emiya Kiritsugu -- INTJ, I could see INTP
Sagara Sousuke -- ESTJ
Furukawa Nagisa -- INFP
Okazaki Tomoya -- ESTP
Suzumiya Haruhi -- ESTP
Kyon -- ISTJ/ISTP, I find him difficult to type -- I could even see F for him.
Holo -- INTP
Kraft Lawrence -- ESTP
Edward Elric -- ENTP, and I could totally see F, although I still think T fits better.
Alphonse Elric -- INFP/INFJ
Itoshiki Nozomu (Zetsubou Sensei) -- ESTJ/ESTP
Ginko (Mushi-shi) -- INTP
Spike Spiegel -- ISTP, but I'm not entirely convinced.
Watashi (Humanity has Declined) -- INTP
Gintama has a huge cast of interesting characters, and I am unshamefully biased toward it, so I'll give it it's own section:
Shimura Shinpachi -- ESFJ
Kagura -- ESFP
Kotaro Katsura -- INFP/INFJ
Shimura Otae -- ENFJ/ESFJ
Hasegawa -- ENTP/INTP
Tama -- ISTP/INTP
Isao Kondo -- ENFP
Toshiro Hijikata -- ESTJ
Okita Sogo -- ISTP
Tsukuyo -- ISTJ
Sakata Gintoki -- INTP (I have never seen a character so hard to type as Gin-san. If anyone wants, I would love to argue it, but this is a pretty long opening post as it is, for a topic that may not even get many replies, so I'll leave it at that.)
apparently I share personalities with Kiritsugu and Lelouch. I don't know if I should be happy or not.
glass, once broken, can never be restored perfectly
I agree. Gintoki is currently an INTP but was born an ESFJ.
He grew up in war and stress so his personality changed into
it's "shadow" self. That's what I believe.
Look at all these possible INTP's:
Makise Kurisu
Hitagi Senjougahara
Emiya Kiritsugu
Sakata Gintoki
I don't often think I'm awesome, but if I share personality types with Gintoki... I will not question the wisdom of this test. Also, I really want to see Fate/Zero now.
Actually, I'm a bit surprised that Holo and Senjougahara cross over with my type. I could never really tell exactly what they were thinking in any given situation. Perhaps that's how I come off to others.

Students using theater to 'Revive Mumbai'
Since the November 2008 terrorist attacks in India, Brandeis students have mobilized to form a new social change organization, Revive Mumbai. They have raised funds, created a proposal for an undergraduate scholarship, and met with the city's community and religious leaders.
This summer, their effort is taking takes them directly into the Wadala slum community to create an original theater play with underprivileged children, that was performed on June 29. They are also documenting their experiences through a blog.
During the spring semester, Revive Mumbai conceived of the summer internship program, which is student-run and funded, that would take a group of Brandeis students to Mumbai from late May until July. They formed local partnerships with the Parivartan School, a center that educates children of the Wadala community; AID Mumbai, a non-profit foundation devoted to alleviating poverty in India; and the Experimental Theater Foundation (ETF), which uses artistic and creative expression to inspire social change.
Four students -- alumnus Juhi Chadha '09, Sriya Srikrishnan '12, Ria Chadha '11, and Zohar Fuller '10 -- are participating in the program in Mumbai. They've spent the last few weeks getting oriented to the theater foundation's methods through extensive training, and have led daily improvisational exercises. Their goal is to work with the students to produce an original street play about their lives, hoping to empower each child to think broadly about his or her future.
The Revive students aim to explore how certain sections of Indian society are left out of the current paradigm of development, fostering some of the misunderstanding and frustration that the Brandeis students believe can lead to terrorist acts. The group also hopes that this experience grows into a sustainable program that builds community in Mumbai.
The Revive students are among many Brandeis students doing independent summer projects and internships around the world.
For more information on Brandeis connections to India, please visit the Brandeis-India Initiative Web site.

Clinical Trials & Research
What is a Clinical Trial?
Scientists all over the world conduct research studies known as clinical trials.
View the list of currently available clinical trials at Middlesex Hospital
Why are Clinical Trials important?
Clinical trials are an important treatment option for people with cancer to consider. A cancer clinical trial is a research study in which people help doctors, nurses, psychologists and social workers, find ways to improve cancer care. These cancer research studies try to answer scientific questios and find better ways to prevent, diagnosis, or treat cancer. They also try to find ways to improve the lives of survivors.
It is important that men and women of all ages and background take part in clinical trials. Each trial has eligibility criteria (or rules) about who can and cannot be in the study. Talk to your doctor to see if this may be an option for you.
Clinical Trials at Middlesex Hospital Cancer Center
At Middlesex Hospital Cancer Center, we're constantly researching cutting-edge, innovative treatment options-testing the effectiveness of new drugs and treatments to find better ways to treat cancer and improve the quality of life for our patients. Patients who volunteer to take part in clinical research trials play a very important role in advancing our knowledge of how cancer responds to new treatments, and this knowledge helps us tailor cancer treatment to better target the cancer and increase the likelihood of a response.
We participate in a wide variety of clinical trials, including National Cancer Institute (NCI) cooperative group oncology programs and industry-sponsored studies. And our membership in the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) and the Cancer Trials Support Unit (CTSU) gives us expanded access to oncology clinical trials from across the United States and around the world.
Our Clinical Trials Office (CTO) includes two certified research coordinators, a research nurse and a certified regulatory specialist who work with oncologists to ensure that all patients are screened for eligibility; that they're provided with education and support before, during, and after treatment; and that the research is conducted according to federal regulations.

Discover Quito's historic Old Town. Your personal guide will show you the city sights and lead you down Calle La Ronda, Quito's oldest street
Is this trip right for you?
Due to the high altitude of many of the places we visit some people can suffer altitude sickness, regardless of age, gender or fitness. It even happened to Sir Edmund Hillary! Some people aren't effected at all, but if you are, be sure to drink plenty of water and don't push yourself too hard. Please see the 'Fitness' section of the trip notes for more important information about altitude sickness.
Declared a World Heritage site in 1978, there's much to discover by meandering through the narrow, cobblestone streets and exploring the lively Plaza Grande and Plaza San Francisco. Continue onto visit the Church of the Society of Jesus (La Compania de Jesus). With its ornate facade and intricately decorated and gold-gilded interior, this is Ecuador's most impressive church. You'll then travel north of the city for about 45 minutes to visit 'La Mitad del Mundo' – a monument commemorating the equator line. The 'Middle of the World' monument was built during the 17th century when a French expedition defined the precise location of the equatorial line.
After having a look inside the monument, head across to the Inti Nan local museum, which claims to be located on the true equatorial line. While here, partake in various experiments that seek to prove that you are indeed on the equator.
Notes: Due to the high altitude of many of places we visit some people can suffer altitude sickness, regardless of age, gender or fitness. Please see the 'Is This Trip Right For You?' and 'Fitness' sections in the trip notes for detailed information.
