Narrated By 'Abdullah bin Umar : Umar bought a silk cloak from the market, took it to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Take it and adorn yourself with it during the 'Id and when the delegations visit you." Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) replied, "This dress is for those who have no share (in the Hereafter)." After a long period Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) sent to Umar a cloak of silk brocade. Umar came to Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) with the cloak and said, "O Allah's Apostle! You said that this dress was for those who had no share (in the Hereafter); yet you have sent me this cloak." Allah's Apostle said to him, "Sell it and fulfil your needs by it."
Narrated By 'Aisha : Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) came to my house while two girls were singing beside me the songs of Buath (a story about the war between the two tribes of the Ansar, the Khazraj and the Aus, before Islam). The Prophet (p.b.u.h) lay down and turned his face to the other side. Then Abu Bakr came and spoke to me harshly saying, "Musical instruments of Satan near the Prophet (p.b.u.h) ?" Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) turned his face towards him and said, "Leave them." When Abu Bakr became inattentive, I signalled to those girls to go out and they left.
It was the day of 'Id, and the Black people were playing with shields and spears; so either I requested the Prophet (p.b.u.h) or he asked me whether I would like to see the display. I replied in the affirmative. Then the Prophet (p.b.u.h) made me stand behind him and my cheek was touching his cheek and he was saying, "Carry on! O Bani Arfida," till I got tired. The Prophet (p.b.u.h) asked me, "Are you satisfied (Is that sufficient for you)?" I replied in the affirmative and he told me to leave.
Traditions regarding the celebrations of the Eid festivals by the Muslims.
Narrated By Al-Bara' : I heard the Prophet (p.b.u.h) delivering a Khutba saying, "The first thing to be done on this day (first day of 'Id-ul-Adha) is to pray; and after returning from the prayer we slaughter our sacrifices (in the name of Allah) and whoever does so, he acted according to our Sunna (traditions)."
Narrated By 'Aisha : Abu Bakr came to my house while two small Ansari girls were singing beside me the stories of the Ansar concerning the Day of Buath. And they were not singers. Abu Bakr said protestingly, "Musical instruments of Satan in the house of Allah's Apostle !" It happened on the 'Id day and Allah's Apostle said, "O Abu Bakr! There is an 'Id for every nation and this is our 'Id."
Narrated By Anas bin Malik : Allah's Apostle never proceeded (for the prayer) on the Day of 'Id-ul-Fitr unless he had eaten some dates. Anas also narrated: The Prophet used to eat odd number of dates.
Narrated By Anas : The Prophet said, "Whoever slaughtered (his sacrifice) before the 'Id prayer, should slaughter again." A man stood up and said, "This is the day on which one has desire for meat," and he mentioned something about his neighbours. It seemed that the Prophet I believed him. Then the same man added, "I have a young she-goat which is dearer to me than the meat of two sheep." The Prophet permitted him to slaughter it as a sacrifice. I do not know whether that permission was valid only for him or for others as well.
Narrated By Al-Bara' bin 'Azib : The Prophet delivered the Khutba after offering the prayer on the Day of Nahr and said, "Whoever offers the prayer like us and slaughters like us then his Nusuk (sacrifice) will be accepted by Allah. And whoever slaughters his sacrifice before the 'Id prayer then he has not done the sacrifice." Abi Burda bin Niyar, the uncle of Al-Bara' said, "O Allah's Apostle! I have slaughtered my sheep before the 'Id prayer and I thought today as a day of eating and drinking (not alcoholic drinks), and I liked that my sheep should be the first to be slaughtered in my house. So slaughtered my sheep and took my food before coming for the prayer." The Prophet said, "The sheep which you have slaughtered is just mutton (not a Nusuk)." He (Abu Burda) said, "O Allah's Apostle! I have a young she-goat which is dearer to me than two sheep. Will that be sufficient as a Nusuk on my behalf? "The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "Yes, it will be sufficient for you but it will not be sufficient (as a Nusuk) for anyone else after you."
To proceed to Musalla (praying place) without a pulpit.
Narrated By Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri : The Prophet used to proceed to the Musalla on the days of Id-ul-Fitr and Id-ul-Adha; the first thing to begin with was the prayer and after that he would stand in front of the people and the people would keep sitting in their rows. Then he would preach to them, advise them and give them orders, (i.e. Khutba). And after that if he wished to send an army for an expedition, he would do so; or if he wanted to give and order, he would do so, and then depart. The people followed this tradition till I went out with Marwan, the Governor of Medina, for the prayer of Id-ul-Adha or Id-ul-Fitr. When we reached the Musalla, there was a pulpit made by Kathir bin As-Salt. Marwan wanted to get up on that pulpit before the prayer. I got hold of his clothes but he pulled them and ascended the pulpit and delivered the Khutba before the prayer. I said to him, "By Allah, you have changed (the Prophet's tradition)." He replied, "O Abu Sa'id! Gone is that which you know." I said, "By Allah! What I know is better than what I do not know." Marwan said, "People do not sit to listen to our Khutba after the prayer, so I delivered the Khutba before the prayer."
Walking and riding for the Eid prayer. The Eid prayer is offered before delivering the Khutba and there is no Adhan or Iqama for it.
Narrated By 'Abdullah bin Umar : Allah's Apostle used to offer the prayer of 'Id-ul-Adha and 'Id-ul-Fitr and then deliver the Khutba after the prayer.
Ata told me that during the early days of Ibn Az-Zubair, Ibn Abbas had sent a message to him telling him that the Adhan for the 'Id Prayer was never pronounced (in the life time of Allah's Apostle) and the Khutba used to be delivered after the prayer.
Ata told me that Ibn Abbas and Jabir bin 'Abdullah, had said, there was no Adhan for the prayer of 'Id-ul-Fitr and 'Id-ul-Adha."
'At a' said, "I heard Jabir bin 'Abdullah saying, 'The Prophet stood up and started with the prayer, and after it he delivered the Khutba. When the Prophet of Allah (p.b.u.h) finished (the Khutba), he went to the women and preached to them, while he was leaning on Bilal's hand. Bilal was spreading his garment and the ladies were putting alms in it.' " I said to Ata, "Do you think it incumbent upon an Imam to go to the women and preach to them after finishing the prayer and Khutba?" 'Ata' said, "No doubt it is incumbent on Imams to do so, and why should they not do so?"
The Khutba delivered after Eid prayer.
Narrated By Ibn Abbas : I offered the 'Id prayer with Allah's Apostle, Abu Bakr, Umar and 'Uthman and all of them offered the prayer before delivering the Khutba.
Narrated By Ibn Umar : Allah's Apostle, Abu Bakr and Umar! used to offer the two 'Id prayers before delivering the Khutba.
Narrated By Ibn Abbas : The Prophet offered a two Rakat prayer on the Day of Id-ul-Fitr and he did not pray before or after it. Then he went towards women along with Bilal and ordered them to pay alms and so they started giving their earrings and necklaces (in charity).
Narrated By Al-Bara' bin 'Azib : The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "The first thing that we should do on this day of ours is to pray and then return to slaughter the sacrifice. So anyone who does so, he acted according to our Sunna (tradition), and whoever slaughtered the sacrifice before the prayer, it was just meat which he presented to his family and would not be considered as Nusuk." A person from the Ansar named Abu Burda bin Niyyar said, "O Allah's Apostle! I slaughtered the Nusuk (before the prayer) but I have a young she-goat which is better than an older sheep." The Prophet I said, "Sacrifice it in lieu of the first, but it will be not sufficient (as a sacrifice) for anybody else after you."
And Al-Hasan said :(In the life time of Prophet (s.a.w)) It was forbidden to carry arms on the day of Eid except if there was fear from the enemy.
حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَبُو السُّكَيْنِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُوقَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ حِينَ أَصَابَهُ سِنَانُ الرُّمْحِ فِي أَخْمَصِ قَدَمِهِ، فَلَزِقَتْ قَدَمُهُ بِالرِّكَابِ، فَنَزَلْتُ فَنَزَعْتُهَا وَذَلِكَ بِمِنًى، فَبَلَغَ الْحَجَّاجَ فَجَعَلَ يَعُودُهُ فَقَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ لَوْ نَعْلَمُ مَنْ أَصَابَكَ. فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ أَنْتَ أَصَبْتَنِي. قَالَ وَكَيْفَ قَالَ حَمَلْتَ السِّلاَحَ فِي يَوْمٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُحْمَلُ فِيهِ، وَأَدْخَلْتَ السِّلاَحَ الْحَرَمَ وَلَمْ يَكُنِ السِّلاَحُ يُدْخَلُ الْحَرَمَ.
Narrated By Said bin Jubair : I was with Ibn Umar when a spear head pierced the sole of his foot and his foot stuck to the paddle of the saddle and I got down and pulled his foot out, and that happened in Mina. Al-Hajjaj got the news and came to enquire about his health and said, "Alas! If we could only know the man who wounded you!" Ibn Umar said, "You are the one who wounded me." Al-Hajjaj said, "How is that?" Ibn Umar said, "You have allowed the arms to be carried on a day on which nobody used to carry them and you allowed arms to be carried in the Haram even though it was not allowed before."
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ دَخَلَ الْحَجَّاجُ عَلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَنَا عِنْدَهُ، فَقَالَ كَيْفَ هُوَ فَقَالَ صَالِحٌ. فَقَالَ مَنْ أَصَابَكَ قَالَ أَصَابَنِي مَنْ أَمَرَ بِحَمْلِ السِّلاَحِ فِي يَوْمٍ لاَ يَحِلُّ فِيهِ حَمْلُهُ، يَعْنِي الْحَجَّاجَ.
Narrated By Said bin 'Amr bin Said bin Al-'Aas : Al-Hajjaj went to Ibn Umar while I was present there. Al-Hajjaj asked Ibn Umar, "How are you?" Ibn Umar replied, "I am all right," Al-Hajjaj asked, "Who wounded you?" Ibn Umar replied, "The person who allowed arms to be carried on the day on which it was forbidden to carry them (he meant Al-Hajjaj)"
To offer the Eid prayer early.
Abdullah bin Busr said: We used to finish the Eid prayer (in the lifetime of Prophet SA) at the time of Tasbih ( Duha or Ishraq prayer) i.e after sunrise.
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ زُبَيْدٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ، قَالَ خَطَبَنَا النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ قَالَ " إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا نَبْدَأُ بِهِ فِي يَوْمِنَا هَذَا أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ ثُمَّ نَرْجِعَ فَنَنْحَرَ، فَمَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ أَصَابَ سُنَّتَنَا، وَمَنْ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ لَحْمٌ عَجَّلَهُ لأَهْلِهِ، لَيْسَ مِنَ النُّسُكِ فِي شَىْءٍ ". فَقَامَ خَالِي أَبُو بُرْدَةَ بْنُ نِيَارٍ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَنَا ذَبَحْتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ وَعِنْدِي جَذَعَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ مُسِنَّةٍ. قَالَ " اجْعَلْهَا مَكَانَهَا ـ أَوْ قَالَ اذْبَحْهَا ـ وَلَنْ تَجْزِيَ جَذَعَةٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ "
Narrated By Al-Bara' : The Prophet delivered the Khutba on the day of Nahr ('Id-ul-Adha) and said, "The first thing we should do on this day of ours is to pray and then return and slaughter (our sacrifices). So anyone who does so he acted according to our Sunna; and whoever slaughtered before the prayer then it was just meat that he offered to his family and would not be considered as a sacrifice in any way. My uncle Abu Burda bin Niyyar got up and said, "O, Allah's Apostle! I slaughtered the sacrifice before the prayer but I have a young she-goat which is better than an older sheep." The Prophet said, "Slaughter it in lieu of the first and such a goat will not be considered as a sacrifice for anybody else after you."

Maureen Rohleder is organizing this fundraiser on behalf of Anita Wright.
Created September 3, 2015
Early in the morning on Thursday, Sept. 3, 2015, Newman University senior Reece Wright-Conklin died in a motorcycle accident. The 21-year-old member of the Newman Wrestling Team was on his way to a part-time job at PetSmart when the accident occurred. Reece had just recovered from multiple knee surgeries and was excited for his senior season as a healthy athlete. Off of the mat, Reece was always happy and was very driven to accomplish his goals. Reece has touched the lives of so many friends and family members, the Lawrence, KS and Newman University communities, and mostly his wrestling family. Please reach out to Reece's family and help in any way you can to financially support them through this rough time in the coming weeks.

Guardian live blogger captures the crazy moments of an epic Wimbledon match
Geeky Fun, Random
Last Friday, history happened on Court 18 at Wimbledon tennis ground. The match that will never be forgotten from Wimbledon 2010 between American John Isner and Frenchman Nicolas Mahut, lasted 11 hours and 5 minutes and stretched over a period of 3 days. It was eventually concluded with John Isner winning the match and the fifth set at 70-68.
I never got to watch the match, but reading the updates from Guardian blogger and editor Xan Brooks who was blogging live from the stadium was fascinating. Brooks' hilarious posts brilliantly pictures the physical torture the player's bodies were subjected to and the exhausting effect the seemingly never ending match had on the spectators.
4.05pm: The Isner-Mahut battle is a bizarre mix of the gripping and the deadly dull. It's tennis's equivalent of Waiting For Godot, in which two lowly journeymen comedians are forced to remain on an outside court until hell freezes over and the sun falls from the sky. Isner and Mahut are dying a thousand deaths out there on Court 18 and yet nobody cares, because they're watching the football. So the players stand out on their baseline and belt aces past each-other in a fifth set that has already crawled past two hours. They are now tied at 18-games apiece.
On and on they go. Soon they will sprout beards and their hair will grow down their backs, and their tennis whites will yellow and then rot off their bodies. And still they will stand out there on Court 18, belting aces and listening as the umpire calls the score. Finally, I suppose, one of them will die.
4.25pm: News from all-around. …[snipped]…. But none of this means a thing to the Everlasting Zombie Tennis Players on Court 18. They hear nothing but the thud of the ball off their racket and the sonorous tones of their Zombie Umpire. They can think of nothing beyond their next trudge to the chair for a short sit down before the ordeal begins again anew. They have forgotten all about Wimbledon and the world beyond the backstop.
John Isner's serving arm has fallen off. Nicolas Mahut's head is loose and rolling bonelessly on his neck. And yet still they play on. The score is now 21-21 in the fifth and final set. This is now, officially, the longest final set in Wimbledon history.
The updates started turning even more bizarre as Brooks slowly, steadily and surely began losing his mind.
6pm: The score stands at 34-34. In order to stay upright and keep their strength, John Isner and Nicolas Mahut have now started eating members of the audience. They trudge back to the baseline, gnawing on thigh-bones and sucking intestines. They have decided that they will stay on Court 18 until every spectator is eaten. Only then, they say, will they consider ending their contest.
6.48pm: The sun is sinking and the court is a blur. It is at this stage that Zombie Isner starts to look like Zombie Mahut and the Zombie Umpire stops croaking and starts to chirrup like a grasshopper. In other words, we're here but we're gone. Is anyone still alive up in the stands or have they now all been eaten? It's 40-40. And that's games, not points
7pm: The umpire climbs down from his chair and starts mildly slapping the net cord with his right hand. No one knows why. John Isner winds up for a backhand and misses the ball entirely. No one knows why.
What's going on here? Once, long ago, I think that this was a tennis match. I believe it was part of a wider tennis tournament, somewhere in south-west London, and the winner of this match would then go on to face the winner of another match and, if he won that, the winner of another match. And so on until he reached the final and, fingers crossed, he won the title.
That, at least, is what this spectacle on Court 18 used to be; what it started out as. It's not that anymore and hasn't been for a few hours now. I'm not quite sure what it is, but it is long and it's horrifying and it's very long to boot. Is it death? I think it might be death.
42 games all.
7.20pm: And so this match goes on and on, on and on. Somewhere along the way, the players have mislaid their names. The man who was once Mahut is now a string-bag of offal. The man who was Isner is a parched piece of cow-hide. The surviving members of the audience don't seem to care who wins. They just cheer and applaud whoever looks likely to make a breakthrough and bring this nightmare to a close. Invariably they are disappointed.
7.45pm: What happens if we steal their rackets? If we steal their rackets, the zombies can no longer hit their aces and thump their backhands and keep us all prisoner on Court 18. I'm shocked that this is only occurring to me now. Will nobody run onto the court and steal their rackets? Are they all too scared of the zombies' clutching claws and gore-stained teeth? Steal their rackets and we can all go home. Who's with me? Steal their rackets and then run for the tube.
By night fall, Brooks had gone insane, but he was not alone:
8.05pm: In the stands, a woman is laughing. She laughs long and hard and her laugh is the sort of ghastly yodel you normally hear in antique horror movies about Victorian insane asylums. "Wa-la-ha-la-wah," she goes. "Wa-la-ha-la-ha-la!" Will nobody drag her out? Call in the goons in white coats. Get this woman to a lobotomy!
8.20pm: Wow, is that really the time? I must go home; can't think what's kept me. Wa-ha-la-ha-la-ha-la!
Oh yes, just remembered. The tennis.
8.40pm: It's 56 games all and darkness is falling. This, needless to say, is not a good development, because everybody knows that zombies like the dark.
This guy deserves a medal.

YouTube's Geek Week Easter Eggs
Last week was "Geek Week" on YouTube. For those who were not aware, it was a celebration of geek culture…


Some storms may become severe ahead of the front Wednesday afternoon and evening across portions of Deep East Texas and Western Louisiana along and south of Interstate 20. Damaging winds and large hail will be the primary threats. I don't see us getting the 1/2 dollar size hail nor the 60-75 mile per winds except under the larger T-storms down bursts ahead of the main front out flows.
Impacts: Damaging winds and large hail Wednesday afternoon and evening, mainly in the slight risk area. Locally heavy rainfall will be possible area wide from late Thursday morning is possible with this fast moving front.
The NWS Slight risk is the mid point for Severe weather. Low to No tornado activity is expected, but strong winds as the cold air aloft collides with very humid Gulf air (10-15 mph) at the surface and temperatures in the 80-82 degrees range. The strong Southerly winds will begin their arrival mid day Tuesday along with with the arrival of clouds moving in around noon to 2 pm. Those very warm 80-82 degree temps will contribute to the event.


Prototype of a medium tank developed by Daimler-Benz from 1939 through 1941. The new vehicle was to become a new standard medium tank of the Wehrmacht. The prototype was deployed on the Eastern front. Combat testing revealed a number of serious faults. In 1941, the tank was deemed obsolete, and the project was discontinued.
This tank is similar to a Pz.Kpfw. III in playstyle, but more defensive. While it is considered by many to be inferior to the Pz.Kpfw. III, these players have not correctly interpreted the stats of their tanks. If one were to look deeper, they are at mostly equal, with several things stand out. Those who are familiar with it praise its survivability: its armour is bouncier when angled well, the shorter hull is a smaller target, and it has 1 degree more gun depression.
However, the armour on our tank can be angled to more than 20 degrees due to the stronger 40mm side plating, and can bounce many a shot off lower tiers. Hull down is very effective due to the exceptional 'Western/American' gun depression and strong mantlet. Like the Panzer 3, you will have to keep poking in and out if a tier 5 tries to bring their gun to bear on you, but this is no different to another tier 4 such as the Covenanter. In short, the frontal armor is mostly on par and provides many more possibilities (to angle or hull down) than the Panzer 3, increasing survivability.
The engine is the second most criticized aspect. It is without the very good hp/ton ratio of the Pz 3 due to extra weight, and so inferior in acceleration. Sharp circling turns are to be avoided. However, it has equal reverse speed if it does need to retreat, and its can top speed can still be easily reached. It is more crucial to get into a position that allows for quick escapes or hard cover, such as a ridge. This is very similar to the Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. G and a good preparation for later tier tanks of the VK 30D line, as these tanks have a somewhat underpowered engine but good top speed until the Leopard 1 at the highest of tiers.
The gun selection is the same as the Pz 3, but worse than the Luchs. It is no weaker, and can be better applied over ridgelines due to the slightly better gun depression. Still, due to poor penetration, flanking or shooting weakspots is the best tactic with the guns. Still if credits are not an issue, HEAT or APCR in either of the guns will get rid of the one and only problem with the guns; lack of penetration. The 50mm KwK 39 L/60 has okay DPM and can make short work of any tier IV tank, especially if aimed at weaker sides or any weakspots, but regular AP struggles against heavies with less than even 70 penetration. It may be easier to pop out and aim with the 75mm KwK 37 L/24, but it is still better suited as a support gun when firing HEs to cripple enemy tanks. As usual HEAT is usually mandatory to do reliable damage, especially against equal or higher tier vehicles.
All in all the tank is geared towards a more defensive and more discerning player, who can take advantage of the better gun depression and angling capability to ensure they survive first, and then use the top speed mobility to relocate, without having to brawl at close range. As well as this, if you are willing to forgoe the history of the Panzer, it is more forgiving as a whole. Finally, it is better preparation for the ridge-poking maneuvers, which become a cornerstone of the rest of the line, as part of the high gun depression playstyle. It is a thoroughly viable alternative to Panzer 3.

GeTe is a well-known ferroelectric and thermoelectric material that undergoes a structural phase transition from a rhombohedral to the rocksalt structure at ∼600–700 K. We present a first-principles approach to calculate the thermal expansion of GeTe in the rhombohedral phase up to the Curie temperature. We find the minimum of the Helmholtz free energy with respect to the structural parameters, including the internal atomic displacement, in a manner similar to the traditional Grüneisen theory, explicitly accounting for the variation of the static elastic energy with respect to all structural parameters. We obtain the temperature dependence of the structural parameters of rhombohedral GeTe in very good agreement with experiments. In particular, we correctly reproduce a negative volumetric thermal expansion of GeTe near the phase transition. We show that the negative thermal expansion is induced by the coupling between acoustic and soft transverse optical phonons, which is also responsible for the low lattice thermal conductivity of GeTe.

Cities of Translation: Ways of Envisioning the East-West Spaces in Leila Aboulela's Literary Works
Michael Moreno, Green River College
This paper explores how Leila Aboulela's novels The Translator and Minaret interpret urban spaces—both public and private, visible and veiled, sacred and secular—as cultural nodes and contact zones that translate and transform the post-colonial fragmentation between Islamic principles and a British ethos into an East-West discourse.
Over the last several decades, the waves of immigration sweeping across the European continent have been reimagining and re-envisioning the identities of its cities and spaces. This cross-culturalization is particularly visible in the growing Muslim communities and their varied receptions by European cities. The United Kingdom has especially been reshaped by the émigrés, refugees, and immigrants coming from Islamic nations, many of them former colonies of the British Empire. In a number of British cities, it is not unusual to behold minarets visible from English parks, veiled women and bearded men moving meticulously in the open market spaces, halal butcheries and restaurants inscribed with Arabic signage, or the centuries old adhan echoing through cobblestone streets and subway stations. Simultaneously, public manifestations of Islamophobia have become hallmarks to a contested intermingling of East-West experiences and epistemologies throughout the United Kingdom. In these urban contact zones, literary spaces can best demonstrate the public and private tensions and concurrences transforming the 21st century British multi-identity, as clearly illustrated in Sudanese writer Leila Aboulela's novels The Translator (1999) and Minaret (2005).
This paper explores how Aboulela's novels interpret urban spaces—both public and private, visible and veiled, sacred and secular—as cultural nodes and contact zones that translate and transform the post-colonial fragmentation between Islamic principles and a British ethos into an East-West discourse. A devout Muslim, Aboulela interweaves her spirituality throughout her writing, imbuing her female protagonists with the struggles involved in being a racial and religious minority in the United Kingdom and European continent. The Translator demonstrates how a widowed Sudanese immigrant working as an Arabic translator for a Scottish professor of Middle Eastern Studies grapples with her Islamic spirituality as it is challenged by a growing love for the non-Muslim professor and a grave sense of loneliness, exile, and estrangement from the city of Aberdeen. Minaret charts the journey of a once-privileged young Sudanese woman, forced to flee with her family after a coup, and live in London now as a maid for a wealthy Arab family. In both novels, the cityscapes respectively overlap with the protagonists' Islamic sensibilities forcing them to translate the experience of an East-West identity for which they are not wholly prepared. In turn, they learn to cultivate different ways of envisioning Islamic spirituality alongside British tenets of capitalism and individualism within the interstices of their East-West realms.
Utilizing the theories of Mary Louise Pratt, Waïl Hassan, and Eisa Nefertari Ulen, this paper further examines Aboulela's production of a counter-narrative of Islamic identity and culture, one digressing from Western stereotypes of exoticism and terrorism. Aboulela effectively translates the East into the West and the West into the East, modeling "linguistic complexity [that] reflects language as both the site of power struggle, and the crucible of cultural and literary creativity" (Gilmour, 2012). Hers is a unique take on the post-colonial narrative as she employs the concept of translation and transmission to articulate Islam's compatibility, albeit a complex one, with Western traditions and secularism. My analysis of these novels underscores how spatial theory becomes a lens through which East-West discourses can articulate greater ways of seeing socio-cultural interactions and reconfigurations.

Form 6 took inspiration from an online masterclass to come up with fascinating story ideas.
This week we are celebrating success in on the tennis court for two members of the class. These two sportsmen competed in the doubles competition and won the Sevenoaks Schools Tennis Cup.
We also have talent in the field of ICT and in particular coding. In assembly we saw several games created by children in Forms 6 and 7. Pictured above is the creator of Beetle Attack playing his own game, complete with moving graphics and sounds. Other children in the school have been invited to play the game to see how high they can get the score.
For yet another non-stop Book Week, this week Form 6 took part in an online 'masterclass' with author and illustrator Alex T. Smith. He talked about how he takes inspiration from even the most mundane things around him, shaping these everyday experiences and objects into something creative.
The children had a go at this in the classroom, looking at a variety of objects, emotions and colours and writing down snippets of ideas as they occurred to them.
We talked about how many authors carry a notebook filled with jottings, doodles and notes, most of which remain as such until the perfect story occurs to them to accommodate these isolated ideas.
The imagination the children showed was wonderful: we had clogs inspiring an idea about a leprechaun who lives in a windmill; the hat of wisdom and the cat of truth; a notion for a Dutch sea-battle; a talking cat and a carnivorous gingerbread man.
After all of those story sparks, it was just a matter of planning and writing a cohesive story. What phenomenal imaginations these children have!
Their imaginations were also vividly on display on World Book Day when they dressed up as book characters including Fantastic Mr Fox, James Bond, Mary Poppins, Wally, General Harrison and, of course, several Harry Potters to mention just a few.

Hiacynta (oryg. wł. Giacinta) – powieść Luigiego Capuany, opublikowana po raz pierwszy w 1879 roku. Jedna z pierwszych włoskich powieści werystycznych; w założeniach autora miała służyć jako wzorzec gatunkowy nowoczesnej powieści naturalistycznej.

Okoliczności powstania
Hiacynta była pierwszą powieścią Luigiego Capuany, który do tej pory zajmował się krytyką literacką i teorią literatury. W założeniach autora miała być to wzorowa realizacja nowego typu powieści (tj. powieści naturalistycznej lub werystycznej), który wcześniej charakteryzował w swoich esejach jako najdoskonalszy gatunek literacki. Pisząc utwór, Capuana przede wszystkim dążył do pełnego dostosowania go do założeń teoretycznych poetyki naturalistycznej, naśladując twórczość Emila Zoli – jemu też zadedykował dzieło.

Treść
Główna bohaterka utworu, Hiacynta Marulli, jest córką urzędnika niskiego szczebla, Paolo Marulliego, i jego żony Teresy. Niechciana przez matkę, która stale zdradza swojego męża, człowieka słabego charakteru, wychowuje się na wsi, u wynajętej niańki. Jako dziewczynka zostaje zgwałcona przez parobka Beppe, nie zdaje sobie jednak sprawy z charakteru poniesionej krzywdy. Dopiero po osiągnięciu pełnoletności zaczyna dręczyć ją niejasne poczucie winy i głęboki wstyd. Wewnętrzny kryzys Hiacynty przekłada się na jej irracjonalne zachowanie – chociaż z wzajemnością zakochuje się w Andrzeju Gerace, odmawia poślubienia go, lecz dzięki uzyskanemu spadkowi po dalekim krewnym zawiera małżeństwo ze znacznie starszym od siebie arystokratą, hrabią Giulio. Równocześnie kontynuuje romans z prawdziwym ukochanym.

Naśladując swoją matkę, która całe życie manipulowała słabym i uległym ojcem, Hiacynta wymusza określone zachowania na mężu i kochanku. Odmawia hrabiemu zbliżeń seksualnych, zmusza Andrzeja do porzucenia pracy urzędnika i utrzymywania się wyłącznie z jej pieniędzy i prezentów. Jej stan psychiczny zaczyna jednak ulegać pogorszeniu. Hiacyntę przeraża natarczywość męża, a następnie jego alkoholizm. Jeszcze większych cierpień doznaje widząc, jak Andrzej coraz bardziej się od niej oddala, upokorzony ich relacjami. Bliska obłędu, Hiacynta szuka pomocy u lekarza Felliniego, ten jednak doradza jej jedynie podróże, dzięki którym będzie mogła zapomnieć o swoich kłopotach. Gdy Andrzej ostatecznie zrywa związek z Hiacyntą, kobieta popełnia samobójstwo zażywając kurarę.

Cechy i recepcja utworu
Hiacynta jest typową powieścią naturalistyczną, przedstawiającą dzieje głównej bohaterki jako naukowe studium ("studium psychopatologii"). Powieść wskazuje, iż wszystkie działania postaci tej są motywowane jej pochodzeniem, środowiskiem, w którym się wychowała, a także cechami dziedziczonymi po przodkach; w dalszych latach jej życia wszystkie zachowania Hiacynty determinuje przeżyty gwałt, nawet jeśli bohaterka nie zdawała sobie sprawy z istoty poniesionej krzywdy.

Poetykę naturalistyczną w powieści ma potęgować wprowadzenie do utworu postaci doktora Felliniego, który w finałowej części tekstu bada Hiacyntę i prowadzi z nią rozmowy na temat jej życia. Wzorem dla tego bohatera był Pascal Rougon, lekarz z cyklu powieściowego Zoli Rougon-Macquartowie. Wprowadzenie Felliniego do utworu miało również zapewnić zachowanie zasady bezosobowości i nieingerencji autorskiej w tekst: Capuana zamierzał w ten sposób zatrzeć wrażenie, iż autor nie analizuje beznamiętnie losów Hiacynty, lecz zaczyna współczuć jej w nieszczęściu.

Capuana uważał swoją pierwszą powieść za dzieło o ogromnym znaczeniu. Jego przyjaciel, czołowy pisarz werystyczny Giovanni Verga ocenił utwór entuzjastycznie. Hiacynta nie zyskała jednak uznania wydawcy ani krytyków, którzy zgodnie uznali utwór za "plugawy", gorszący i słaby pod względem stylu pisania (z tym ostatnim zarzutem zgadzała się również krytyka późniejsza). W związku z tym pisarz opracował drugą wersję powieści, ukończoną dziesięć lat po publikacji pierwszej, nie wprowadzając jednak zasadniczych zmian w treści, a jedynie dopracowując styl i skracając niektóre ustępy.

This two-day workshop deals with the fundamentals of organizing and managing the front office of a collision shop. This workshop clearly defines the roles and responsibilities of each employee, resulting in everyone being on the same page and in agreement on how and what needs to be done.
The first part goes over the basics of organizing and managing any type of operation, but is specifically designed for automotive shops.
The second part deals with the practical applications of organizing and managing the front operation of any type of shop.
The last part of this two day workshop is dedicated to creating a personalized plan you will take back to your shop to turn your operation into a lean, mean, money making machine. This workshop gets the best results when both the owner and all key production employees have done it.
As a shop owner, DRIVE gave me my life back. I run my shop and it no longer runs me. It's a great feeling to not have your business be an obligation but more of a success enjoyed. The entire staff is friendly and accommodating and their methods produce true results.
I was in business 20 years before I began training with DRIVE. Those years were extremely frustrating and difficult. Back then I learned from trial and error, which is costly, exhausting and was a great strain on my personal life. This program was a game changer for me in business and in my personal life. I have worked with my advisor to create a clear cut path to our goals. I have learned financial control and no longer have to wait for our accountant to tell us how we are doing. My full understanding of finance enabled us to purchase our building, build capital and secure our financial future, this would not have happened without proper training. My only regret is that I did not work with them in the beginning!
Dave Bloom	Pine Aire Truck Service Bay Shore, NY.
There's not a lot of words that I can say to express what DRIVE has truly done for my shop. They helped me achieve more freedom and time with my family, but those are just quantifiers. It's so much more than that. DRIVE has allowed me to find who I am not only as a shop owner, but as a person, and that has affected me and helped me in my professional life, as well as a member of my community.
We've got the answers. Get the details on how you can grow in this course.

Unable to watch live today. While I wait for todays episode to be posted, I stepped back in time, and watched this interesting TMRO SpacePod from 2015 about why there is no cold beer in space.
Wow! I'm so young! Thanks for sharing, it was good to get a reminder of what I used to create!
But seriously, this SpacePod needed more pictures!!! Gah.
What's this? Food in the lab! Tsk.
Very valid point. I was breaking the rules here! In fact, I used to film my SpacePods very late on a Tuesday night (like 9pm onwards) so that the Lab would be empty. Mostly because I never asked permission to film, but also so I wouldn't disturb or be disturbed by anyone.


Today we are setting out to break new ground and to decisively improve the way in which we manage and coordinate our interdependent economies in the European Union.
I sincerely believe that today by adopting this Annual Growth Survey 2011, we are in fact initiating what can be a new phase in European integration.
The European semester that begins today is at the heart of the reformed economic strategy. This is the first time we are going to put in place these instruments of joint governance at European level. It is not just a timetable - it will help to change the way governments shape their economic policies. We are effectively introducing a genuine EU dimension into national budgetary and economic policymaking for the first time. Of course, Member States will be taking the final decisions. But from now on, each Member State will bring ex-ante the EU dimension into the shaping of its national policy and decision making. This is the EU model. This is our economic governance in action. This will be further strengthened when we have the six legislative proposals on economic governance that were approved and now we need a formal adoption before the summer. And it is also a break from the past in that we will now be steering the policies upfront rather than judging and correcting them afterwards.
This Annual Growth Survey launches the European Semester, which shines a light on what every government in Europe is doing. And on where every government should be heading, keeping its eye squarely on the goals of our Europe 2020 strategy.
The Commission sees three main priorities and proposes 10 actions, to be agreed by the European Council. The three priorities are: 1) macro-economic stability, namely fiscal consolidation; 2) structural reform, namely in the labour markets; 3) growth-enhancing measures, from the Single Market to trade and common energy policy.
The first priority is enhancing macro-economic stability. Commissioner Olli Rehn will develop this. This means above all fiscal consolidation – not for its own sake but as a means of securing our future growth, jobs and prosperity. We need a plan to balance the books. Many Member States also need to tackle large and persistent macroeconomic imbalances. At the same time, bank restructuring must be speeded up to bring stability to the financial sector. Only then will we create the conditions for confidence.
Second, we need to push forward with structural reforms. If we don't want to have jobless recovery, Member States need to focus this year on labour market reforms so we can remove obstacles to higher employment. Commissioner Andor will develop these points. We need to help people get back to work or find new jobs by making work more attractive, urgently reforming pension systems and making sure that unemployment benefits provide an incentive to work.
This does not mean reducing our level of social protection – but it does mean modernising our labour markets to keep more people in work and to bring in those who are currently outside the labour market, namely young people. We can adapt while keeping our social market economy. In fact we need to adapt if we want to keep our social market economy. That means being more flexible with contracts and benefits while building new and dynamic ways of providing protection. We will continue to protect the vulnerable in our societies and at the same time work harder to make sure we have less vulnerable people.
Third priority, we need to speed-up investment in future growth through new sources of growth. Tough fiscal action and a plan for growth are not alternative strategies. They are different parts of a comprehensive strategy.
That means supporting business and investing in the growth industries of the future like green energy, innovative start-ups and advanced manufacturing. It means tapping into the potential of our Single Market. It means increased investment in major infrastructure projects through EU project bonds for instance.
The Annual Growth Survey puts all the elements together in one process. The 10 actions set out what the Commission believes is needed – based on serious analysis which underpins our proposals. Together with the chapeau Communication on this Annual Growth Survey we have presented a Progress Report on Europe 2020; a Macro-economic Report and the Joint Employment Report.
On this basis, I want Heads of State and Government to discuss and commit to these actions. Member States need to make clear national commitments in their medium term budgetary strategies and in their national reform programmes. The Commission will then propose country specific recommendations for each Member State which they should take into account when preparing their budgets for 2012.
As regards the issue of financial stability, namely the EFSF, the Commission states clearly in this document that we consider that its effective financing capacity must be reinforced and the scope of its activities widened. It is perfectly possible to take these decisions no later than at the next European Council in February.
In 2011, we need to get our act together. We need to break the vicious circle of unsustainable debt, disruption in the financial markets and low economic growth in some Member States. We face a simple choice: a decade of debt or a generation of growth. All the tools should be used to do the job.
What we have agreed today is a resolute prioritisation of growth. This is part of the comprehensive response. The difference here is that we are boiling that all down into what should be the essential focus for Member States in 2011. In fact markets are demanding precisely that: a stronger governance and increased economic coordination in the euro area and the EU.
We know the challenges ahead and we are doing what it takes to address them. I am confident we will be successful. Thank you for your attention.

Book Review: Burying the Black Sox, by Gene Carney
Burying the Black Sox : How Baseball's Cover-Up of the 1919 World Series Fix Almost Succeeded
by Gene Carney
c. 2006 Potomac Books Inc. $26.95 (Hardcover)
"Was [reporter and scandal-investigator Hugh] Fullerton a Don Quixote? He took a huge risk, and lost. He underestimated baseball's ability to keep the lid screwed tightly on the scandal. Fullerton had a blind spot when it came to the Sox's owner...and this ultimately cost him. He imagined that the baseball owners and [American League President] Ban Johnson had consciences to which he could appeal with passion and logic. he may have hoped that his voice would be joined by writers in every major city, and his articles would be the snowball that started an avalanche. But instead, by iself, his case had more like a snowball's chance in hell."
I usually like to include a short but meaningful quote from the books I review, some pithy comment by the author, to give you an idea what his or her book is about, but Gene Carney presented me with a unique problem. There is very little about his book that could be accurately described as "pithy". Not to be misunderstood, it's not as though he goes off on weird, irrelevant tangents all the time like, for example, I do. It's just that his subject requires fairly dense prose to give it the proper attention, which he does. The quote above does the best job of summarizing the meaning of and reason for the book he wrote. It just isn't short. Sorry about that.
But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me back up.
I first found out about this book in March, when I wrote a column for All-Baseball.com about the 1919 Chicago White Sox, ostensibly because last year's White Sox team wasn't ineresting enough to justify a column, but really just because the Black Sox were what I wanted to write about anyway. Mr. Carney's publisher commented on the post and contacted me to see if I'd be interested in reading and reviewing this book, which of course, I was, and I did. You see, I spent perhaps the better part of a week doing research for my article, while Carney spent years researchiing his book. It turns out that I had a lot to learn.

The Facts about Yelp and other arbitrary online reviews regarding property management companies.
More and more we have heard from potential clients, existing clients, colleagues, residents and even friends and family, "you should look at the Opulent Real Estate Group LLC reviews on Yelp and we tell them, "if we are doing things right, we should only have 1 star!" In fact, in our business, we wouldn't be doing things right if we had 5 stars, otherwise that would mean that we never evicted residents, charged tenants for damages, said no to illegitimate repair requests, or increased rents. Additionally tenants would not be sent to collections, and deductions would never be taken from their security deposits. Real, experienced management companies have to say "No" and that is what's reflected in yelp and other arbitrary online review platforms. The reason we use the word "arbitrary" is because by definition it means " based on random choice or personal whim, rather than any reason or system". We feel there is no better word to best describe the lion share of the management companies' reviews on these sites, our company or otherwise.
In over a decade of being in business Opulent Real Estate Group LLC has dealt with hundreds of clients and thousands of tenants or prospective tenants. There are some negative reviews on Yelp, some positive however only a small portion of the reviews are from actual clients.
Batches of FIVE STAR reviews from actual clients and residents have been filtered off online review sites and do not appear on the pages at all.
A large percentage of our negative reviews online are from prospective residents who could not qualify for a rental, were evicted, whom were upset they were charged for damages they caused to the property, people whom we have never even heard of, or occasionally even posted about the wrong management company.
We are an accredited member of the BBB with an A+ rating. The Better Business Bureau is and always has been the only properly evaluated source for authentic client reviews.
If you are reading this you are a probably a property owner and hopefully a potential client. As a savvy real estate owner you are aware that there are always issues with unhappy residents, no matter what you do and there is always more than one side to a story. We strive to make all our properties a clean and a happy place to live. We also understand that these properties and buildings are important investments for our clients and it is our duty to make sure they run efficiently and in a fiscally responsible manner. We proudly stand by our work, our results and always happy to take on the role of the "enforcer" for our client so they do not have to.


La Rencontre features works by several contemporary composers: Julie Spencer, Oleksa Lozowchuk, Emmanuel Séjourné, Guillo Espel, and Keiko Abe, along with Caron's own transcriptions of Letter from Home by American guitarist Pat Metheny, and Cinco Piezas by Argentinian master Astor Piazzolla.
The compositions are full of musical subtleties that call for highly acrobatic technique on the part of the performer, who plays an instrument that ranges over five octaves. The marimba's roots can be traced to primitive traditional instruments developed in Asia, pre-Colombian America and Africa. In the 16th century, black slaves imported the marimba to Latin America. It has come to be considered the national instrument in Mexico and Guatemala.


I joined Cleveland State University in 2014 as Director of Talent Development and I currently serve as the Interim Director for the Office of Career Services. My career background has focused on organizational development with extensive experience in training development and career coaching using appreciative inquiry. Previously, I served at Case Western Reserve University in several leadership positions including Associate Director for Programs and HR Training Manager where I was responsible for designing and delivering professional development programs, training sessions, and workshops. Prior to that, I was an organizational development professional for University Hospitals where my role included facilitation of the strategic training direction for 200+ employees and change management efforts for new business acquisitions and physician engagement activities.
Formerly known as the Career Success Network, our office re-aligned recently to the Division of Student Affairs and was rebranded as Career Services to reflect our true service mission. Career Services continues its traditional offerings like career counseling, resume assistance, and career fairs while we also aim toward more widespread presence across campus and a stronger emphasis on connecting students directly with employers for career placement.
Along with our student services, we serve employer needs. Employers no longer concentrate their recruitment activities on individual openings or departments. They now streamline their recruitment to add efficiency. We see more and more employers using HR Generalists to recruit on behalf of the needs of the entire organization at once. To build stronger relationships with these employers, we created a network of Career Liaisons. These members of CSU faculty and staff provide expertise and resources from within the respective Colleges to help us make stronger connections between employers and our CSU students seeking career, co-op, or internship placements.


With Halloween fast approaching the local council is saying it's time to plan parties, create costumes and carve pumpkins.
Although a lot of fun, Halloween can be an expensive and needlessly wasteful time of year, here are some top tips to make your waste less frightening.
Every year more than one million pumpkins are bought and carved for Halloween.
A huge trend of intricate pumpkin carving has emerged and many households display more than one pumpkin in their windows to keep the ghouls away.
In fact 90% of the total annual sales of pumpkins occur in October.
Sadly, this results in 180,000 tonnes of edible pumpkins being thrown into the bin each year.
Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council would like to encourage you to give new life to your pumpkins this year by turning them into a wholesome meal or tasty treat.
Keep the autumnal chills at bay by sipping on hot pumpkin and chilli soup as you watch the festive fireworks or try a slice of pumpkin pie.
Remember to save pumpkin seeds which can be roasted as a tasty savoury snack or pureed to make pumpkin seed hummus.
Or why not get crafty with the pumpkin seeds and use them to make autumn necklaces during the Halloween half term break.
Alternatively you can entertain the kids, and save some money, during the school holidays by helping them create their own costumes for the Halloween fancy dress events happening across the Borough.
Instead of buying a throw-away costume this year which will inevitably end up in your bin, design and make your own.
Keep old clothes throughout the year that you can turn into original, unique costumes or buy your outfits in charity shops instead of purchasing something new.
You can also swap or mix and match last year's costumes with your friends.
You don't have to be a master seamstress, just use a little imagination and let your creativity flow.


West Burton can safely lay claim to have one of the loveliest Methodists Chapels; and one with a history. The present chapel built in 1898 by local craftsmen replaces one that was built in 1812 and which, until fairly recently was used as the Village Institute.
Present membership stands at nineteen. They have their own website: www.westburtonchapel.com This site operates independently of the NYDalesmeth site.

The county comprises part of the Cotswold Hills, part of the flat fertile valley of the River Severn, and the entire Forest of Dean.
The county town is the city of Gloucester, and other principal towns include Cheltenham, Cirencester, Stroud, and Tewkesbury.
When considered as a ceremonial county, Gloucestershire borders the preserved county of Gwent in Wales (now Monmouthshire) to the west, and in England the ceremonial counties of Herefordshire to the north west, Worcestershire to the north, Warwickshire to the north east, Oxfordshire to the east, Wiltshire to the south and Bristol and Somerset to the south west. Ceremonially, it includes the area covered by the South Gloucestershire unitary authority.

History[edit]Main article: History of GloucestershireGloucestershire is a historic county mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle in the 10th century, though the areas of Winchcombe and the Forest of Dean were not added until the late 11th century. Gloucestershire originally included Bristol, then a small town. The "local" rural community moved to the port city, (as Bristol was to become) and Bristol's population growth accelerated during the industrial revolution. Bristol became a county in its own right, separate from Gloucestershire and Somerset in 1373. It later became part of the administrative County of Avon from 1974 to 1996.
Upon the abolition of Avon in 1996, the region north of Bristol became a unitary authority area of South Gloucestershire and is now part of the ceremonial county of Gloucestershire.
The official former postal county abbreviation was "Glos.", rather than the frequently used but erroneous "Gloucs." or "Glouc.".
In July 2007, Gloucestershire suffered the worst flooding in recorded British history, with tens of thousands of residents affected. The RAF conducted the largest peace time domestic operation in its history to rescue over 120 residents from flood affected areas. The damage was estimated at over £2 billion.[1]
The county recovered rapidly from the disaster, investing in attracting tourists to visit the many sites and diverse range of shops in the area.

USP-NF Chapter 797, published in January 2004, is having a major impact on sterile compounding operations within hospital pharmacies. These new regulations come partially as the result of public outcry over sterile compounding incidents that caused patient deaths in US hospitals.
Unlike past sterile compounding guidelines, USP 797 has the power of the law behind it. And while it brings a host of new challenges to hospital pharmacies, the standards also provide pharmacists with justification to seek funding, to upgrade barrier isolators and other equipment, and to implement new policies and procedures to achieve unprecedented levels of patient safety. The new standards also help assure personnel safety during the compounding of hazardous products such as chemotherapy drugs.
In this video, recognized thought leaders outline the specifics and the implications of USP 797. After reviewing this program, pharmacists will understand the basic changes needed to meet the rigorous requirements of the new standard.
The program features interviews with 6 thought leaders: Philip J. Schneider, MS, FASHP, Director, Latiolais Leadership Program, College of Pharmacy, Ohio State University; Luci A. Power, MS, Senior Pharmacist, Manager, IV Additive Service, University of California Medical Center; Hank Rahe, BSIM, MSE, Technical Director, Containment Technologies Group; Doug Lang, RPh, Pharmacy Manager, BJC Home Care Services; Clyde Buchanan, MS, FASHP, Senior Director, Pharmaceutical Services, Emory Healthcare; Sylvia Bartel, RPh, MPH, Director of Pharmacy and Clinical Support Services, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
