Hold Tight, Don't Let Go: A Novel of Haiti by Laura Rose Wagner, Hardcover | Barnes & Noble®
by Laura Rose WagnerLaura Rose Wagner
This coming-of-age story conveys the country's deeply entwined faith and fear of the unknown through the eyes of a teenager named Magdalie Jean-Baptiste…Wagner paints a lush and authentic image of Haiti, breathing life into Port-au-Prince's inhabitants…Wagner has delved deep to shed light on one girl's journey to find sure footing in an unsteady world.
In this formidable first novel, 15-year-old narrator Magdalie loses everything after the Haitian earthquake of 2010 and is forced to rebuild along with her country. This well-adjusted schoolgirl goes from living in Port-au-Prince with her close cousin, Nadine, under the watchful care of Nadine’s mother, to finding her own way in a camp after her aunt’s death and Nadine’s emigration to the United States (“Since January 12, every good-bye feels like it might be forever”). Wagner effectively and unsentimentally highlights the emotional and economic aftermath of the disaster as Magdalie grieves the loss of her family; realizes she cannot afford school; adjusts to life with her reluctant guardian and uncle, Tonton Élie; and begins to accept that Nadine is unlikely to send for her as promised. Wagner’s portrait of Haitian culture is particularly compelling, and her descriptions of the settings of the city and Tonton Élie’s country hometown are lush, despite the nation’s dire circumstances. An epilogue, set in 2020, resolves the story a bit neatly, but this strong heroine and her will to survive triumph. Ages 14–up. (Jan.)
Gr 9 Up—When a natural disaster strikes, what happens after the telethons, after the donations, and after the media attention has disappeared? This powerful debut novel follows Magdalie in the two years following the 2010 earthquake in Haiti as she grieves for her manman, adapts to life in the tent camps, and tries to find a place and a community that feels like home. Magdalie seeks to live a normal life in an impermanent society where "my memories are out to get me." People she loves appear and disappear, her home is made of plywood and plastic tarps, she ducks for cover at the slightest sound, and she has no hope of returning to school. She faces the tenuous circumstances with her beloved cousin Nadine, but then must brave them alone after Nadine is granted a U.S. visa. Wagner creates a portrait of post-earthquake Haiti that is a study of contrasts—hopeful and bleak, warm and lonely. Magdalie searches for connections and solutions, but is also afraid of loving anybody when they might disappear at any moment. There have been literary works that highlight the devastation of the earthquake, but Hold Tight Don't Let Go is unique in that it highlights the two years after—what international aid really looks like, how temporary situations become permanent, and the how profound losses affect those who are left. Wagner also effectively highlights the nuances of urban poverty and rural poverty. The book ends with a sweet, optimistic epilogue that provides happy endings, but detracts from the power of the novel. Wagner provides a helpful glossary and brief history of Haiti. A worthy companion to author Nick Lake's In Darkness (Bloomsbury, 2012).—Susannah Goldstein, Convent of the Sacred Heart, New York City
Two cousins, close as sisters, survive the Haitian earthquake, but will life ever be the same? Magdalie and Nadine, two 15-year-old schoolgirls, instantly lose their Manman, their home and their equilibrium to the disaster of January 2010. When Nadine's father resurfaces and whisks her off to Miami, Magdalie is forced to confront her new life in a relief camp with her uncle-turned-reluctant caregiver, Tonton Élie, and heartbreaking challenges, still holding out hope that Nadine will one day send for her. Eventually Magda's anger and grief find release via visits to a vodou priestess, the mourning and burial rituals for Manman, and emerging love. Debut novelist Wagner lived in Haiti and wrote her cultural anthropology dissertation on disaster and community in Port-au-Prince. She successfully folds in sensory experiences of the capital city and beyond, along with meditations on love, loss, home and hope, without lecture or contrivance. Readers will find the characters believable and engaging. The title reflects a form of Haitian Creole goodbye that captures the complexity of separation, while the final chapter is Magdalie's hopeful projection for the future for herself and Nadine, as well as all of Haiti. An insightful disaster-survival story with far-reaching emotional resonance. (brief history notes, glossary) (Fiction. 14 & up)

An elongate hollow body terminates in a pair of opposed blades perpendicular to the said hollow body being pivotal on two axes. The endotracheal tube used for the intubation rides within the hollow tube on the introducing means disposed in the cavity of the said hollow body. Light conducting means illuminate the larynx and optical means are provided for inspecting the larynx during the intubation procedure.
What is claimed is: 1. A laryngoscope, comprising,an elongate body consisting of two hollow tubes, having a proximal and a distal end, two blades pivotally mounted to the distal end of said elongate body, in an angle of 90� degrees, in opposing relationship to each other, means for pivotally moving said two blades in opposing direction from each other, an elongate, flexible and steerable, tube introducing means disposed within the elongate hollow body and between the opposed blades, an endotracheal tube longitudinally disposed within said elongate hollow body and riding on said elongate, flexible and steerable tube introducing means, means for extending the tube introducing means from said elongate hollow body into the larynx and trachea, and means for introducing said endotracheal tube from said elongate hollow body into the trachea. 2. The laryngoscope of claim 1, further comprising,light conducting means for illuminating the patient's laryngeal region during intubation, optical fibers for transmitting light from a source internal or external of said laryngoscope to the laryngeal region, and said optical fibers longitudinally disposed within said elongate hollow body in substantially parallel alignment with said tube introducing means. 3. The laryngoscope of claim 1, further comprising,optical means for viewing the illuminated pharingeal region, an ocular disposed at the proximal end of said elongate hollow body parallel to the blades, and objective means comprising a system of lenses for forming an image on said ocular. 4. The laryngoscope of claim 1, said means for pivotally moving said blades relative to each other comprising,a lever, said lever disposed in angular relationship relative to said elongate hollow body so that said blades are in juxtaposition when the angle between said elongate hollow body and said lever is maximal, and so that said blades are widely spaced apart when said angle between said lever and said elongate hollow body is minimal, and bias means for urging said lever into its maximal displacement angle so that the opposed said blades are easily held in juxtaposition when said blades are introduced into a patient's mouth thereby enabling intubation of the patient unable to fully open the mouth. 5. The laryngoscope of claim 1, said means for extending said tube introducing means comprising,a lever integrally formed with said tube introducing means, said lever lying on said proximal end of said elongate hollow body so that the user of said laryngoscope easily manipulates said lever, and said proximal end of said hollow body that can be telescopically introduced into said elongate hollow body so that said tube introducing means be projected forward between said blades and into the larynx. 6. The laryngoscope of claim 1, the means for transferring said endotracheal tube from said tube introducing means and the means releasing said endotracheal tube from said tube introducing means, comprising,a lever attached to said endotracheal tube and positioned so that manually advancing said lever pushes said endotracheal tube forwardly, said lever lying on a line angled perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of said endotracheal tube, and an elongate slot formed in the wall of said tube of said elongate hollow body so that said lever for said tube introducing means travels forwardly and rearwardly within the confines of said elongate slot. 7. The laryngoscope of claim 1, said means for pivotally moving said blades relative to each other comprising,an elongate flexible rod disposed interiorly of the distal part of said elongate hollow body, means for causing said elongate flexible rod to move linearly in a forward and rearward direction within said elongate hollow body, a rack gear having linearly spaced teeth as a part of said elongate flexible rod, a pinion gear for imparting reciprocal lineal motion to said rack gear, and said pinion gear as an integral part of said two blades. 8. A method of inserting said endotracheal tube, comprising the steps of,introducing a pair of opposed, juxtapositioned blades into the pharingeal region through a patient's partially opened mouth, increasing the spacing between said two blades only after said two blades are correctly positioned in the pharyngeal region, illuminating the patient's pharyngeal and laryngeal region, viewing the illuminated laryngeal region through said objective means, advancing said elongate, flexible and steerable tube introducing means forwardly relative to the opened blades so that the same enters the larynx, holding said endotracheal tube when the same is correctly positioned, returning said blades to their initial position, withdrawing said blades and said tube introducing means, releasing said endotracheal tube in desired position.

The present invention relates to a support device for animal clamp, and more particularly to a device for supporting an animal clamp fixing a small laboratory animal in a specific position with respect to examination equipment.
In laboratory experiments using rabbits, guinea pigs and other small animals, animal clamps are usually used to restrain the motions to prevent the animals from struggling or escaping during the experiment. An example is shown in FIG. 3.
This animal clamp 100 is of box type having the front end portion 101 reduced and the rear end portion 102 opened. In the front end portion 101, there is an opening 103 at its upper surface for projecting the head 201 of an animal 200. Behind the opening 103, a fixing plate 104 for pressing and fixing the neck of the animal 200 from the back is slidably attached. In use, the animal 200 is put in from the rear end portion (opened portion) 102 of the animal clamp 100 with the head 201 first, and after projecting the head 201 out of the opening 103, the fixing plate 104 is moved to the front end portion 101 side to press the neck, and finally fixing screws 105, 105 are tightened to fasten the fixing plate 104 completely.
In experiment, for example, a drug is administered to the animal 200 fixed in the animal clamp 100, and its reaction is observed by testing apparatus. If the testing apparatus is small in size to be held in the hand of the operator, the apparatus may be easily fitted to the target position of the animal. If the case of a large apparatus, however, it is not so easy as in the small apparatus, and the animal clamp must be set at a specified position in relation to the testing apparatus. However, since the setting position of the animal clamp is usually higher than the floor on which the testing apparatus is installed, the animal clamp must be lifted to a specified method and supported by some means.
In such a case, hitherto, a platform was prepared by using box or board, and the animal clamp was put thereon.
In such prior art, however, it not only takes time to prepare the platform, but also it is necessary to adjust the height every time by remaking the platform when the size of animal or animal clamp or the type of testing apparatus is changed, and the preparation for observation is complicated.
Besides, when the animal is relatively heavy, the height adjustment is very difficult, and it is hard to correct the position of the animal with respect to the testing apparatus, and accurate observation may not be done.
Furthermore, for example, when observing the eyes of the animal, usually, the head of the animal is inclined and the animal clamp is tilted to fit the eyes to the specified position of the testing apparatus, but in the prior art it is difficult to incline the animal clamp correctly to a proper angle for observation.
The invention is to solve all these problems of the prior art by presenting a support device for an animal clamp capable of supporting the animal clamp at a specified position with respect to the testing apparatus easily and securely, and adjusting the position easily, regardless of the weight of the animal.
To achieve the above object, the invention presents a support device for animal clamp for supposing the animal clamp fixing a small laboratory animal at a specified position with respect to a testing apparatus, comprising a base board fitted to the testing apparatus either directly or indirectly, an elevating board disposed above the base board, elevating means for lifting or lowering the elevating board, being installed between the base board and elevating board, a clamp mounting board disposed on the elevating board for mounting the animal clamp on, with the front edge pivoted to the elevating board, tilting means for tilting the clamp mounting board about the front edge, being installed between the elevating board and the clamp mounting board, and clamp slip preventive means to prevent the animal clamp from slipping off the clamp mounting board.
The base board is mounted on a table disposed adjacently to the testing apparatus, or fixed to the testing apparatus through proper stay, arm or other gripping tool suited to the testing apparatus.
The elevating board is lifted and lowered by the elevating means installed between it and the base board, and the clamp mounting board is tilted by the tilting means installed between it and the elevating board. Accordingly, the position of the animal clamp mounted on the clamp mounting board, that is, the height position and inclination angle may be determined. By properly manipulating the elevating means and tilting means, the position may be finely adjusted.
Furthermore, owing to the clamp slip preventive means of the clamp mounting board, the animal clamp does not slip off the clamp mounting board.
FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view showing an embodiment of a support device for animal clamp according to the invention, FIG. 2 is its side view, FIG. 3 is a sectional view showing an example of animal clamp, and FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 are partially magnified views showing other examples of sliding members for composing the tilting means.
The invention is described in greater detail below by referring to the accompanying drawings.
As is shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, this support device for animal clamp 1 comprises a base board 2, an elevating board 4 disposed above the base board, elevating means 3 disposed between the base board and elevating board 4 for lifting and lowering the elevating board 4, a clamp mounting board 8 for mounting an animal clamp on disposed on the elevating board 4 with the front edge 81 pivoted on the elevating board, tilting means 6 disposed between the elevating board 4 and clamp mounting board 8 for tilting the clamp mounting board 8 about its front edge 81, and clamp slip preventive means 7 for preventing the animal clamp 100 from slipping off the clamp mounting board 8.
The base board 2 is made of metal plate or synthetic resin plate. A pair of mounting stays 9, 9 are drooping from the front edge of the base board 2. The mounting stays 9, 9 are intended to mount the device 1 on a testing apparatus 300, and are disposed opposite to a pair of testing bench mounting parts 301 of the resting apparatus 300 as shown in FIG. 2. In this case, the testing apparatus 300 shown in the drawing is the human ocular fundus inspection tool used for animal eyegrounds examination, and the testing bench mounting parts 301 are the parts for supporting the jaw and forehead of the man. If the testing apparatus has different bench mounting parts, instead of the mounting stays 9, mounting parts in a form corresponding to the different mounting parts may be installed on the base board. Or, if the testing apparatus does not have any bench mounting part, a grip for holding a part of the testing apparatus may be disposed on the base board 2, or without putting anything on the base board 2, it may be directly mounted on a table placed adjacently to the testing apparatus.
The elevating means 3 is intended to lift and lower the elevating board, and the clamp mounting board 8 through the elevating board, and to position the animal clamp 100 mounted on the clamp mounting board 8 at a specified height. In this embodiment, the elevating means 3 is composed of a set of two jacks 31, 32. The jacks 31, 32 are both so-called pantograph type jacks, and the pantographs 34,36 are expanded and contracted by screw rods 33, 34. The both jacks 31, 32 are fixed parallel on the base board 2 so that the mutual screw rods 33, 34 may be positioned coaxially, and the screw rods 33, 34 are mutually linked with a linkage rod 37. A manipulation handle 38 is attached to the end of one screw rod 33, and by turning this manipulation handle 38 by hand, the both screw rods 33, 34 are turned, and the both jacks 31, 32 are raised or lowered together.
In this embodiment, the both screw rods 33, 34 are turned by hand, but they may be rotated by a motor M as shown in FIG. 1. The jacks 31, 32 are not limited to the form shown in the embodiment. The elevating means 3 is not limited to the jack, but an air cylinder A.C. as shown in FIG. 2, an hydraulic cylinder H.C. as shown in FIG. 2, and other machines generally used in elevating and lowering motion may be used.
The elevating board 4 is made of, same as the base board 2, metal plate or synthetic resin plate. This elevating board 4 is placed and fixed on the jacks 31, 32, and is moved up and down by the ascending and descending motion of the jacks 31, 32.
The clamp mounting board 8 is for receiving the animal clamp 100, and is made of a metal plate or a synthetic resin plate, same as the base board 2 and elevating board 4. The front edge 81 of the clamp mounting board 8 is pivoted to the front edge 41 of the elevating board 4 through one or a plurality of hinges 5, so as to be tiltable in the vertical direction about the front edge 81.
The clamp slip preventive means 7 is intended to prevent the animal clamp 100 from slipping off the clamp mounting board 8. In this embodiment, this means 7 is composed of a flange standing up from the front edge 81 of the clamp mounting board 8. However, the clamp slip preventive means 7 is not limited to such flange, but it may be a band for tying the animal clamp 100, for example, to the clamp mounting board 8.
The tilting means 6 is to tilt the clamp mounting board 8 to incline the animal clamp 100 on the clamp mounting board 8 at a specified angle. In this embodiment, the tilting means 6 is composed of a jack 61 and a sliding member 62.
The jack 61 is a so-called pantograph type jack, and is designed to extend or contract the pantograph 64 by the screw rod 63. This jack 61 is fixed in the middle of the elevating board 4 so that its screw rod 63 may orthogonally cross the screw rods 33, 34 of the two jacks 31, 32 for composing the elevating means 3. A manipulation handle 65 is attached to the screw rod 63, and by turning this manipulation handle 65 by hand, the screw rod 63 is turned, and the jack 61 is raised or lowered.
The sliding member 62 is intended to achieve smooth rubbing of a top plate 66 of the jack 61 and the rear side of the clamp mounting board 8, always while the jack 61 is ascending or descending. In this embodiment, the sliding member 62 comprises a roller, and this roller 62 is fitted to the front edge of the top plate 66 of the jack 61. The sliding member 62 is not limited to such roller, but it may be a ball or others as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the sliding member is an arch curved piece 621 made of synthetic resin piece with small coefficient of friction. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the sliding member is an oscillating receiving piece 622 with a smooth surface. In the case of the example in FIG. 5, the synthetic resin piece described above may be also adhered to the surface of the receiving piece 622.
In this embodiment, the screw rod 63 of the jack 61 is turned by hand, but it may be also rotated by a motor. The form of the jack 61 is not limited to the form shown herein. Furthermore, the sliding means 6 is not limited to the jack, but air cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or other means may be used.
The method of use of the support device for animal clamp 1 described herein is explained below.
In the first place, the mounting stays 9 are inserted into the bench mounting parts 301 of the testing apparatus 300 (the ocular fundus inspection instrument), and the support device 1 is set in the testing apparatus 300.
Next, the animal clamp 100 fixing an animal is set on the clamp mounting board 8.
In succession, operating the manipulation handle 38 of the elevating means 3 and the manipulation handle 65 of the tilting means 6, the elevating board 4 and clamp mounting board 8 are lifted or lowered so that the animal clamp 100 may be located at specified height and specific tilting angle with respect to the testing apparatus 300, and the clamp mounting board 8 is tilted. Is this time, since the clamp mounting board 8 ascends, descends and inclines smoothly by the elevating means 3 and tilting means 6, and the height and angle of the animal clamp 100 may be set finely very smoothly regardless of the weight of the animal. Hence, the precision of examination may be high.
Afterwards, the animal is observed by means of the testing apparatus.
Meanwhile, to reduce the entire weight of the device 1, multiple holes may be provided in all or some of the base board 2, elevating board 4 and clamp mounting board 8.
The support device for animal clamp of the invention, being thus composed, allows the clamp mounting board to ascend, descend or incline smoothly. Therefore, regardless of the weight of the animal, the animal clamp may be supported in a specified position with respect to the resting apparatus easily and securely, while the position may be adjusted finely, so that it may be suited to obtain accurate data in experiment using laboratory animals.

BSNL gets additional spectrum for 2G mobile services - business - Hindustan Times
BSNL gets additional spectrum for 2G mobile services
Department of Telecom has given additional spectrum to BSNL for mobile services in 17 circles, taking the allocation of radio waves to the state-run firm to a maximum of 10 Mhz in each of these regions.
business Updated: Oct 04, 2007 17:45 IST
The Department of Telecom is understood to have given additional spectrum to BSNL for mobile services in 17 circles, taking the allocation of radio waves to the state-run firm to a maximum of 10 Mhz in each of these regions.
With this, BSNL now has 10 Mhz spectrum each in 16 circles, while in West Bengal it has around 8.8 Mhz.
A senior DoT official, however, said the PSU has been allocated 1-2 Mhz of trial spectrum in certain circles and no regular allocation has been made to it.
So far, a handful of operators like Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Essar and BPL Mobile have got a maximum of 10 Mhz in two-three circles.
In a letter to circle heads late last month, BSNL head office had asked them to put the allocated trial spectrum to commercial use immediately.
The additional 2G (current mobile usage) spectrum has been earmarked in the 1800 Mhz band for the 16 circles in the range of 2-3.8 Mhz in the run-up to the total 10 Mhz. In all these circles, spectrum was already earmarked in the 900/1800 Mhz up to 8 Mhz.
The Wireless Planning Coordination (WPC) wing of DoT had during March-May this year allocated trial spectrum to BSNL for these circles.
However, it was later decided that this would be converted for commercial use, according to BSNL's directive to its circle heads.

Pradel, France. abdellah.aouifi@vnumail.comAbstractOBJECTIVE: To determine the value of procalcitonin (PCT) as a marker of postoperative infection after cardiac surgery.DESIGN: A prospective single institution three phase study.SETTING: University cardiac surgical intensive care unit (31 beds).PATIENTS: Phase 1: To determine the normal perioperative kinetics of PCT, 20 consecutive patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass were included. Phase 2: To determine whether PCT may be useful for diagnosis of postoperative infection, 97 consecutive patients with suspected infection were included. Phase 3: To determine the ability of PCT to differentiate patients with septic shock from those with cardiogenic shock, 26 patients with postoperative circulatory failure were compared.MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Phase 1: Serum samples were drawn for PCT determination after induction of anesthesia (baseline), at the end of surgery, and daily until postoperative day (POD) 8. Baseline serum PCT concentration was 0.17 +/- 0.08 ng/mL (mean +/- SD). Serum PCT increased after cardiac surgery with a peak on POD 1 (1.08 +/- 1.36). Serum PCT returned to normal range on POD 3 and remained stable thereafter. Phase 2: In patients with suspected infection, serum PCT was measured at the same time of C-reactive protein (CRP) and bacteriologic samples. Among the 97 included patients, 54 were infected with pneumonia (n = 17), bacteremia (n = 16), mediastinitis (n = 9), or septic shock (n = 12). In the 43 remaining patients, infection was excluded by microbiological examinations. In noninfected patients, serum PCT concentration was 0.41 +/- 0.36 ng/mL (range, 0.08-1.67 ng/mL). Serum PCT concentration was markedly higher in patients with septic shock (96.98 +/- 119.61 ng/mL). Moderate increase in serum PCT concentration occurred during pneumonia (4.85 +/-3.31 ng/mL) and bacteremia (3.57 +/- 2.98 ng/mL). Serum PCT concentration remained low during mediastinitis (0.80 +/- 0.58 ng/mL). Five patients with mediastinitis, two patients with bacteremia, and one patient with pneumonia had serum PCT concentrations of <1 ng/mL. These eight patients were administered antibiotics previously and serum PCT was measured during a therapeutic antibiotic window. For prediction of infection by PCT, the best cutoff value was 1 ng/mL, with sensitivity 85%, specificity 95%, positive predictive value 96%, and negative predictive value 84%. Serum CRP was high in all patients without intergroup difference. For prediction of infection by CRP, a value of 50 mg/L was sensitive (84%) but poorly specific (40%). Comparing the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves, PCT was better than CRP for diagnosis of postoperative sepsis (0.82 for PCT vs. 0.68 for CRP). Phase 3: Serum PCT concentration was significantly higher in patients with septic shock than in those with cardiogenic shock (96.98 +/- 119.61 ng/mL vs. 11.30 +/- 12.3 ng/mL). For discrimination between septic and cardiogenic shock, the best cutoff value was 10 ng/mL, with sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 62%.CONCLUSION: Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass influences serum PCT concentration with a peak on POD 1. In the presence of fever, PCT is a reliable marker for diagnosis of infection after cardiac surgery, except in patients who previously received antibiotics. PCT was more relevant than CRP for diagnosis of postoperative infection. During a postoperative circulatory failure, a serum PCT concentration >10 ng/mL is highly indicative of a septic shock.PMID: 11008977 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] ShareMeSH Terms, SubstancesMeSH TermsAdultAgedC-Reactive Protein/metabolismCalcitonin/blood*Cross Infection/bloodCross Infection/diagnosis*Diagnosis, DifferentialFemaleHeart Diseases/bloodHeart Diseases/surgery*Heart Failure/bloodHeart Failure/diagnosisHumansIntensive Care UnitsMaleMiddle AgedPredictive Value of TestsProspective StudiesProtein Precursors/blood*Shock, Cardiogenic/bloodShock, Cardiogenic/diagnosisShock, Septic/bloodShock, Septic/diagnosisSurgical Wound Infection/bloodSurgical Wound Infection/diagnosis*SubstancesProtein PrecursorsprocalcitoninCalcitoninC-Reactive ProteinLinkOut - more resourcesFull Text SourcesLippincott Williams & WilkinsOvid Technologies, Inc.Other Literature SourcesLabome Researcher Resource - ExactAntigen/LabomeAccess more work from the authors - ResearchGateMedicalHeart Disease in Women - MedlinePlus Health InformationHeart Diseases - MedlinePlus Health InformationMolecular Biology DatabasesCALCITONIN, SALMON - HSDBPubMed Commons home

Holiday Coalition Gets Space For Now - The Washington Post
Holiday Coalition Gets Space For Now
By Leslie Shepherd By Leslie Shepherd November 7, 2004
Lerner Corp. has donated 20,000 square feet of space in a Sterling office building for the Community Holiday Coalition to conduct this year's Thanksgiving and Christmas food basket program and winter coat drive.
The coalition had been searching for space since learning in mid-September that the Lerner building on Route 28 in eastern Loudoun County, where it has operated its holiday store for two years, would not be available this year.
With Thanksgiving only 21/2 weeks away and about 800 families expected to request assistance, coalition coordinator Karen Velez expressed relief, even though the lease expires on the new space at the end of the year.
"It was getting very, very tense, to say the least," she said. "Literally hundreds of calls [were made], not just by me. I had volunteers, donors, recipients calling people. There's a lot of support for this program in the community."
The Salvation Army, however, is still looking for 5,000 square feet of storage and distribution space for its Angel Tree Christmas gift program. Both organizations also need volunteers.
Velez said she had to put 60 pallets of tables, coat racks, refrigerators and other items into storage after her space across the parking lot from Wegmans was rented to a furniture company. She said that before the new Lerner space became available, Loudoun Transit officials offered her about 5,000 square feet of space in Purcellville for Thanksgiving only.
Velez said the Holiday Coalition helped 800 families last Thanksgiving and 1,100 at Christmas, and she said she expected the numbers to be about the same this year. The deadline has passed for applying for Thanksgiving baskets, but applications will be taken for Christmas baskets until Nov. 30.
The new location for the Holiday Coalition, which includes nonprofit and government agencies in Loudoun, is in the Vintage Park One Office Complex, 45335 Vintage Park Plaza, off Routes 28 and 606. Velez said that the lease at that site will expire Dec. 31 and that she will have to find space for next year.
"It would be nice to have a permanent home," she said. "If we had a permanent home, we could do so much more year-round to help people."
Donations can be made at Holiday Coalition sites throughout the county, which have already opened, or at Vintage Park Plaza next Sunday and Nov. 15. Recipients will be able to pick up their baskets from Nov. 16 to 18.
Velez said one of the main ways people can donate to the Holiday Coalition is to participate in the Boy Scout food drive. Boy Scouts were to distribute plastic bags to homes in Loudoun this weekend and pick up filled bags Saturday. The Boy Scouts collected 56,000 pounds of food last year.
"We look for traditional holiday food: stuffing, yams, vegetables, potatoes, pumpkin pie filling and crust mix, boxed hot roll mix and other nonperishable foods," Velez said. "We prefer grocery store gift cards to be used for the turkey and other perishables."
In addition to food, the Holiday Coalition is collecting gently used and clean winter coats and blankets for distribution with Thanksgiving food baskets. Coats are needed in all sizes from infant through adult but especially for children and teenagers. New gloves, hats and mittens will be distributed in December.
Cash donations can be made payable to County of Loudoun-Holiday Program and sent to 102 Heritage Way NE, Suite 200, Leesburg, Va. 20176.
Donations of food and clothes may be dropped off at all Loudoun County community centers; the Ashburn Ice House; Arcola and South Riding fire stations; Dulles Town Center mall (coats only until Nov. 16 and then nonperishable food); Edward Jones, 108-A South St., Leesburg; Eastern Regional Library in Sterling; Glen Apartments in Leesburg; Good Shepherd Thrift Shop in Sterling; Guardian Storage in Leesburg, Ashburn and Chantilly; Hunt Country Furniture in Leesburg; Jerry's Florist and Leesburg Pharmacy, Virginia Village Shopping Center in Leesburg; Loudoun Convention & Visitors Association, 222 Catoctin Cir., in Leesburg; Middleburg Bank at all locations; Potomac Valley Bank, Leisure World and Lansdowne; Rivercreek Country Club & Community, 43730 Olympic Blvd., in Leesburg; Sawdust Specialties & More, 8 Fort Evans Rd. in Leesburg; South Riding Town Hall; Store to Door in Ashburn; United Bank in Sterling; and World Gym in Leesburg and Sterling.
To help with receiving, sorting and distributing donations, call 703-737-8367.
For more information on the Thanksgiving or the December programs, call 703-771-5718 or visit www.loudoun.gov and click on Holiday Coalition under "Hot Topics."
Applications in English and Spanish are available online and at the Loudoun County Department of Social Services, 102 Heritage Way NE, Suite 200, Leesburg, Loudoun Interfaith Relief and the Good Shepherd Thrift Shop in Sterling, or by calling 703-771-5718.
The Salvation Army of Loudoun County said it needs 5,000 square feet of storage and distribution space from Friday to Jan. 8. The space must be heated and have adequate lighting and at least one restroom. Contact Capt. Syung Young Lee at 703-771-3371 or syung_young_lee@uss.salvationarmy.org. The Salvation Army will provide a letter for tax purposes, pay the utility costs and provide an insurance rider for its personnel and volunteers who will be using the space.
Anyone who is interested in volunteering for either the Angel Tree or Kettle Drive should contact Jennifer Coombs at 703-771-3371 or christmas@SalvationArmyLoudoun.com.

I will review the article sometime later today or tomorrow. Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 03:30, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
Sources 11, 17, and 23 need a publisher. Ruby2010 talk 22:26, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
There appears to be an edit problem with User: 200.120.81.30, and it doesn't seem to have been completely resolved yet. Care to comment on it? Ruby2010 talk 22:26, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
It's just something so trivial I had to put on WP:LAME.
Stop deleting four accurate words and the stability is rock solid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.120.81.30 (talk) 02:04, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
Not to complain, but I guess I'll try some different word combinations. Truthfully, though, it seems a long drawn out process for something so small, so innocuous and with info whose accuracy is completely undisputed. It could have been over YEARS ago. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.120.81.30 (talk) 22:40, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
First of all, I am not a bot. Second of all, you're correct, this could have been over before. You seem to be the only person continually adding this unneeded information to this article. The facts of the matter are these- 1) Any other episode article where this character is mentioned makes no reference to his other sue of name; 2) Different word combinations will not make up for the fact that you continually add this information even though it's been made clear on the article talk page, your personal talk page, and through edit comments, that the information is unneeded and other editors (the community) feel you're vandalizing. This GA review is to improve the article and get it up to a certain standard here on Wikpedia. Your continued edits are seemingly making that impossible. It was never said by anyone other than yourself that this seems necessary. And in reference to your "years ago" comment, from what I remember, except for a few different IPs, for the most part, the issue had been settled on the talk page and the article reflected the consensus to not include the information, that is until a few months ago when you deemed it necessary. --HELLØ ŦHERE 23:08, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
And just for a clarification, while looking back through the history of the article, I found that not only did this specific IP start this whole "nonsense war" in October of 2010, but the last time someone else had put this same bit about "Dr. Candle" in (from what I found), was one year prior to that (October 2009). So, it seems, that for a whole year, the matter was settled.
Hello there, Hello There! Nice to hear from you again! I would say that you greatly mis-characterized the "Edit War Nonsense" section. No need to answer, it's on you. The info is accurate and brief. No one argues it's veracity. People who might look for the time when this moment is revealed could find it here, if not for this issue. This is the mandate of the site, no? Waiting controversy out is not the same as dispelling controversy. It's true that I started this whole thing again, by accident. I stopped in and noticed that the edit had stayed for months and commented on how happy I was.
To the GA reviewer:  Sorry that you had to see this.  Seriously, though, it's a cheesy tv ep summary...aren't there more deserving articles to look at?
Anyhoo.  Best wishes.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.120.81.30 (talk) 00:02, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
This guy must get points for style? Or at least a special mention for his demonstration of dedication to the Marvin Candle Appreciation Society? That Ole' Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 00:21, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

The lead should have a brief summary of the episode's critical reception (just a few components of the episode that seem to have a consensus among reviewers). Ruby2010 talk 20:56, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
Also, the lead doesn't need citations, as it is meant to be a summary of the article (and the citations should thus be in the body). Ruby2010 talk 20:56, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
In 2007, back in Los Angeles, two lawyers visit Kate Austen (Evangeline Lilly) and serve her with a court order for a maternity test for her and Aaron, Claire Littleton's (Emilie de Ravin) son, whom Kate is raising as her own, but they refuse to reveal their client's identity. The sentence makes sense, but is a little long and wordy. Maybe split into two, or add a semicolon in there somewhere? Ruby2010 talk 20:56, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
The production section has some tense issues. Following a writing "mini-camp" to map out the fifth season,[5] the premiere's script was written and filming began on August 19.[6] While previous seasons had been filmed in high definition, this season premiere is the first Lost episode to be edited in it.[7]. Choose either past or present tense, and stick with it. Same goes for the rest of the section. Ruby2010 talk 20:56, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
I'll come back to the reception section in an hour or so and complete the review. Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 20:56, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
The reception section looks good. Just reply or edit accordingly to my suggestions/comments and the article will be good to go. Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 22:26, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
Did those, though I'm not so sure if my rewrite of the sentence in the third bullet point is good enough; anything else? igordebraga ≠ 00:35, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for making the changes. I would be happy to pass the article, except for the still ongoing issue with the IP user, who again just made an edit that was previously reverted. I can see the merits of both sides of this issue, but since the issue has yet to be completely resolved, I added the issue to the GA talkpage to get a second opinion. I'll put the GA nom on hold for another seven days while the issue gets looked at. Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 03:06, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
Seeing as how the article is now protected and no one really responded negatively to passing the article for GA, I'll go ahead and approve it. Nice work, Ruby2010 talk 18:22, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Americas | Havana Journal Cuba’s Rap Vanguard Reaches Beyond the Party Line
By MARC LACEYDEC. 15, 2006
The rappers Bian Rodríguez Gala, second from left, and Aldo Rodríguez Baquero, right, of Los Aldeanos.
Jose Goitia for The New York Times HAVANA — In a country like Cuba, where the state has its hand in just about everything, it is perhaps not surprising that there is a governmental body that concerns itself with rap music.Alarmed by the number of young people in baggy clothing and ill-aligned baseball caps rapping around the island, the government created the Cuban Rap Agency four years ago to bring rebellious rhymers into the fold.The person chosen to lead the agency was Susana García Amaros, 46, who studied Latin American literature at the University of Havana, specializing in the writings of Afro-Cubans. She said that when officials from the Ministry of Culture approached her for the job she told them that she was not a rap expert. But she said she appreciated the music and its underlying messages.“Rap is a form of battle,” she said. “It’s a way of protesting for a section of the population. It has force. It’s not just the beat — the boom, boom, boom — it’s the lyrics.” Continue reading the main story
“We don’t have songs on a record that speak badly of the revolution,” Ms. García Amaros said on a recent day. “That doesn’t make sense.”Not surprisingly, most rappers, who are by definition a rebellious lot, are averse to joining forces with the government, even as they struggle to spread their rhymes on their own. Only nine groups are working with the agency. Of the remaining 500 or more across the island, some voice discontent with Cuban society in language that is as blunt as the accompanying beat is loud.“We are not in agreement with any political system, the one here or the one you have,” said Aldo Rodríguez Baquero, 23, who teams up with his friend Bian Rodríguez Gala in a popular group called Los Aldeanos, or The Villagers. “We want liberty and freedom.”
While rap appeals to just a subset of Cuba’s youngsters, many of the five million Cubans under the age of 30 similarly question the system.The government’s own surveys have found that the bulk of the unemployed in Cuba are young and that many youths are uncertain about their future. The blame, the government argues, lies with the United States trade embargo.
Foreign Minister Felipe Pérez Roque raised the disenchantment of many of Cuba’s young people in a speech last year, which was reported by The Miami Herald. “We have a challenge,” said Mr. Pérez Roque, who is in his early 40s and is considered one of the next generation of Cuban leaders. “These young people have more information and more consumer expectations than those at the start of the revolution.”He added that young people were more likely to hear their elders telling stories about social progress under the current government and respond, “Oh, please, don’t come to me with that same old speech.”
Cheri Dalton, an American exile who goes by the name Nehanda Abiodun, has been working with Cuban rappers to promote their music.

The rappers speak of these and other problems, often bluntly.“What we sing, people can’t say,” said Mr. Rodríguez Baquero, who wore a blue bandanna to pull back his braided hair as he rapped on the sidewalk outside an overflowing club. “They think we are crazy. We say what they only whisper.”
He acknowledged that his mother and his rap partner’s mother worried about their outspoken ways. “They don’t want to lose us,” he said.But they keep rapping, even though some of Havana’s club owners have banned them for a time over some of their toughest songs, including one dealing with police harassment.
As for the rap agency, Mr. Rodríguez Baquero dismisses that with a wave of his hand. “We don’t want to be in any agency,” he said. “It’s the same as slavery for us.”But not all that many people hear what he and other independent rappers have to say. They produce albums in their homes in bare-bones studios and distribute them by hand.“It’s very difficult to do rap in Cuba,” he acknowledged.One of those working behind the scenes to aid Cuba’s rappers is Cheri Dalton, an American who goes by the name Nehanda Abiodun. She is a black militant who is wanted by the F.B.I. in connection with a string of robberies, including a 1981 holdup of an armored car near Nyack, N.Y. Now living in exile in Cuba, she has formed a Havana chapter of Black August, a grass-roots group that promotes hip-hop culture.“There’s always been a love for music from the States in Cuba,” said Ms. Abiodun, who declined to discuss her own case. “You can go back to Nat King Cole, Earth Wind & Fire and Aretha Franklin.”
But despite the disenchantment of many young people with Cuba’s system, rap appears to be losing some ground here. The hip-hop festival, held every August, was a flop last year and was canceled this year. Nobody seems sure why. Some rappers say the culprit was not so much the government involvement as it was another musical genre that is pushing rap aside. Reggaetón, a blend of reggae, rap and Latin music that was born in Puerto Rico, is now the rage.The governmental rap agency has begun promoting reggaetón artists, whose messages are often intended more to get people on the dance floor than to protest. It is harder than ever for rappers to find a stage.
