Wow, we've reached the end of the year. December is almost done. I have no words. I'm working on my year-end for 2016 and though I've been a bit MIA from LJ this year (and probably moreso in 2017), it's been a fun ride.
December had a lot going on -- the holidays, work, hellos and goodbyes and I'm just happy to be standing at the end of it. How was your December?
I ran my first 10K in years that I actually trained for but about 60% through it, I was just not sure i was going to finish so I took it slow. I'm glad that I finished. I'm not happy it wasn't as fast as I could have gone, but it was still better than my 5K so that's not bad. I'm so glad my siblings were there to meet me at the finish line, too.
There was this one week where I had to work for 7 days straight and the Saturday was me at a photoshoot. I wasn't looking forward to it at first but then it turned out to be not too bad and a bit of fun, hanging out with new colleagues and going around Singapore like tourists in a way.
My sister-in-law, Ashna's birthday also happened this month and it was nice to celebrate it with her family. The food was amazing. I'm not one for vegetarian fare just because I was raised meat-eating but her mom made the most amazing vegetarian lasagna. I also at ate a ton of it, which defeats the purpose but that's ok.
My sister had her baptism too and it's pretty amazing how far she's come from when she moved to Singapore. I'm really happy for her and it was nice to see her welcomed into her new church. We had dinner and drinks after and explored a bit of the East. All in all, good times for all.
I also got to hang out with Becky and Kaulin after forever and before they flew off for the holidays. I ended up going to a museum with Becky and her colleague and working through happy hour. Not too bad for a Sunday.
Though I didn't go home for the holidays, it was nice to see some friends before everyone flew away. Dinner with Christopher, Erica, Raman and Denise (who's about to pop!) was so nice. The food was amazing. The drinks were fantabulous and the company was great, of course. Plus, we're all neighbours. It was pretty swell walking home after.
It's funny that I don't see Chaps enough either. It's a good thing Koko had asked to deliver something to him and so we ended up catching up one each other even for just a bit. It's always nice to see folks back from home.
And then my parents came over and that's both fun and amazing and crazy tiring. This time, my grandma came along too. Which was nice because we were able to slow things down a bit. I'm glad I was able to join them for Friday lunch and dinner despite work.
Saturday (Christmas Eve) was planned by my sister and it was nice to hang out at a museum and go around for a bit. opening of gifts was a little strange given how little we were this year compared to years before but it was nice to chat with my brothers and sister in the US separately even for a bit.
Sunday (Christmas Day) was on me and it was just a food fest. I was honestly just super tired and wanted to sleep but I'm glad we were able to have lunch and dinner and attend mass together.
The next day was a holiday in Singapore so my brother planned a chill day in the East. I'm glad we just stayed in and watched Chef's table on Netflix. Definitely a good call. And although the last day was the parents shopping and me being able to take a day off from work, I'm glad they came around even if I was exhausted the whole time. I wish i had more energy, really.

Serena loses in return but says 'on the right track'
February 12, 2018 SportsAsdiq Rana
12 Feb, 2018 3:40 pm
ASHEVILLE (Reuters) – Serena Williams was understandably far from her best in her return to competition on Sunday but the greatest player of her generation said it was a positive step towards her goal of returning to the pinnacle of her sport.
Williams, playing her first official match since having a baby, and older sister Venus were beaten in a dead doubles rubber by the Netherlands in the Fed Cup in Asheville, North Carolina, but walked away feeling upbeat.
"I honestly feel better than I thought I was going to feel," said Williams, who prior to Sunday had not played a competitive match since her 2017 Australian Open victory.
"I feel like I didn't expect to play, you know, like that for me. I feel like I'm on the right track."
Williams, who gave birth to her first child last September, showed glimpses of both her prowess and rust during the 6-2 6-3 loss to Demi Schuurs and Lesley Kerkhove.
Early in the match Williams showed the effects of her lengthy layoff, perhaps most noticeably when she shanked a routine volley that left her bent over in embarrassment.
But shortly after, the owner of an Open-era record 23 grand slam singles titles drew wild cheers when she confidently stepped to the net and stretched out to drive home a superb backhand volley.
"I didn't know what to expect. Maybe that's why I felt like I did better. I didn't expect to …have that much power on my serves, even though they didn't go in," said Williams.
"It's just a start. I feel like that's a very good step in the right direction."
Despite the loss, it was a positive step for Williams, who was bedridden for six weeks from a series of complications, including a pulmonary embolism that led to multiple surgeries, after her daughter was delivered by emergency caesarean section.
Still, the 36-year-old American said she came into the tie with high expectations.
"If I walk out there with low expectations, then I need to stop doing what I do. So that's never going to happen for me," said Williams.
"I'm always going to have the best and highest expectations for myself."
The rubber had no impact on the best-of-five tie as it was played after Venus gave the United States an insurmountable 3-0 lead that put the reigning champions into the April 21-22 semi-finals against France.
Williams, who played an exhibition match last December in the United Arab Emirates, where she lost to French Open champion Jelena Ostapenko, said in addition to working on her serve and returns, she needs to manage her time better now that she has her daughter in tow.
"I didn't manage my time well, but I was thinking about it in the future how to manage it better," said Williams, whose daughter was among those in the sellout crowd.
"This is literally my first time travelling with the baby and everything. I'm going to try to do better. It was hard. It was the first time for me."

Gabriela Hasbun for The Wall Street Journal.
Dog breeding expert, Marina Hall Phillips, with a litter of yellow labradors.
Marina Hall Phillips calls herself a "crazy, passionate dog person." But as a puppy breeder, she spends more time studying spreadsheets than visiting kennels.
In her current work as a consultant, she advises dog organizations about breeding and puppy development. And as the head of Guide Dogs for the Blind's breeding department—a position she held for more than a decade, until last year—she oversaw the raising of about 10,000 puppies for the national organization and managed what is today one of the largest dog-breeding colonies in the U.S.
"She's created exceptional puppies for us," says Brent Ruppel, Guide Dogs' director of community programs.
She starts with a list of the specific traits desired in a dog. Guide Dogs, a nonprofit group founded in 1942 to provide assistance dogs to seeing-impaired servicemen returning from World War II, sought dogs that were healthy, compliant and eager to please. These days, it provides around 300 dogs every year to blind and seeing-impaired people at no charge. To help her better understand how to breed for the preferred traits, Mrs. Phillips reached out to Thomas R. Famula, a quantitative geneticist and one of her former professors at the University of California, Davis, where she graduated with an undergraduate degree in animal science and psychology in 1991.
Nature and nurture both count. Using Dr. Famula's analysis, Mrs. Phillips estimated that 41% of those qualities could be bred for; the remaining 59% come from environment and training. Because Guide Dogs' colony is now more than six decades old, she was able to trace character traits and qualities generations back. "Each individual dog carries the wealth of its ancestral history," she says.
She introduced a more sophisticated way to quantify a dog's traits, assigning numbers between one and four to such qualities as confidence, sociability and physical condition. Ultimately, each dog would be assigned a compound number—known as its estimated breeding value—ranking it against other dogs in the program and predicting its potential to produce future guide dogs.
Marina Hall Phillips with some young labs.
She approaches the dogs at the bottom of the list unsentimentally. She retires breeders that aren't up to the job—either because the litters are too small or the temperaments of the puppies they produce aren't suitable.
"Dog breeding is mostly an art, but Marina brings more science to the process," says Dr. Famula, who continues to consult for Guide Dogs and other assistance dog organizations, as well as for the cattle industry.
When Mrs. Phillips first became Guide Dogs' breeding manager, in 1999, the colony had a problem with puppies that had difficulty swallowing milk, due to a genetically heritable condition. Through breeding choices, she quickly solved the problem.
One risk in managing a breeding colony is what is known as "kennel blindness"—a breeder's inability to see the faults in his or her own kennel. Forging partnerships with assistance guide organizations in Korea, Japan, the Netherlands and elsewhere helped to avoid bias. It also added genetic diversity to the colony, by swapping puppies and breeding dogs with them.
She is convinced that she has learned more from her mistakes than from her successes. "You learn more from your bad dogs than your good dogs," she says, as long as you try to figure out what went wrong. A bad dog is one with a health, behavioral or other problem that makes it unsuitable as a guide dog.
After Mrs. Phillips retired from Guide Dogs last year, she founded a company called Phillips Next Generation, which offers consulting services to the assistance-dog industry. Mrs. Phillips remains passionate about her own dogs—a petite mixed-breed named Biko, a Golden Retriever named Tassel, five new yellow Labrador retriever puppies she's raising for the nonprofit group Canine Companions for Independence, their mother Kamela, and a black Lab breeder named Kathleen.

Key court hearing put on hold for state official in Flint water scandal
Posted November 8, 2017 12:16 p.m. EST
By Jessica Royce
GENESEE COUNTY, MI — A key court hearing has been put on hold in the case against one of the state's top health officials charged in connection with the Flint water crisis.
Dr. Eden Wells, chief medical examiner for the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, is charged with involuntary manslaughter for failing to warn the public about a deadly legionnaires' outbreak.
The outbreak happened in 2014 and 2015, shortly after the beginning of the Flint water crisis. At least 12 people died during the outbreak.
Testimony was put on hold Wednesday after new documents were presented in the case which the prosecution had yet to review.
The hearing was suspended until Nov. 21.
If put on trial and convicted, Wells could serve up to five years in prison.

Pioneer Youth Corps of Oregon
The History of PYCO
The origins of the Pioneer Youth Corps of Oregon lie in New York City. The designer of the program, William Lay, grew up in Brooklyn. At age 14 he joined the Washington Grey's Cadet Corps and remained in that organization until graduating from High School. During that time he rose to become a Company Commander and started two separate Companies, one in Brooklyn and one in Long Island. In 1969 he joined the U.S. Army and eventually was stationed in Alaska. In 1971, he wrote to the Commanding General of the Alaska National Guard about starting a cadet corps similar to the Washington Grey's. The proposal was accepted, and Mr. Lay was assigned to supervise the program development. The program was then called the National Army Cadets.
In 1972, Mr. Lay joined the Anchorage Port Police Department and began a ten-year career as a law enforcement officer in Alaska, the US Army and Oregon. After moving to Oregon in 1980 he then earned his bachelor's in social work. Between 1985 and 1993, Mr. Lay worked with the Oregon Child Services Department. Looking around him in his field, Mr. Lay decided the most effective way to turn the tide of the many juvenile problems was to teach them how to develop the important life skills they were not learning elsewhere.
By 1993, Mr. Lay had spent over twenty years making adjustments to his National Army Cadets plans. In November of that year he formed the non-profit corporation, the Pioneer Youth Corps of Oregon in order to implement that plan.
In January 1994, he began teaching eleven cadets the basics of the program: Personal Accountability, Responsibility, Good Decision Making and Leadership. These cadets he put through an intensive seven-week training course including Cadet Basic Leadership School and the Non-Commissioned Officer Academy. Seven cadets graduated in March and formed the first PYCO NCO corps. The doors of the 1st Battalion of the Pioneer Youth Corps were then opened to general enrollment.
Over the first few years, PYCO grew quickly. By May 1995 a unit was opened in Medford, Oregon at first called the 2nd Battalion, it was soon changed to the 1st Battalion of the 186th PYCO regiment in honor of the sponsoring National Guard unit there. The Eugene unit was then named the 1st Battalion of the 162nd PYCO regiment to honor the National Guard unit there. A year later a detachment of the 1/162 opened in Cottage Grove, and February 1997 opened the 1/1249th opened in Salem under Cadet Major Beau Litner.
During this period it became evident that there was a pressing need for an academic program designed after the PYCO after school program. PYCO was also experiencing difficulty developing funds to maintain the program and meet its needs. All the staff was volunteers and the program had become so large that it was very difficult to administer. At one point there were 56 volunteer staff and over 300 cadets in four locations with no central headquarters or administration.
In the summer of 1997 Springfield School District contracted with PYCO to open an alternative education program in their district. A second contract was signed with the Harrisburg District but was never activated. It was decided that what little resources remained would be concentrated toward the development of an academic program in the Eugene-Springfield community. The other units by this time were becoming inactive and by the beginning of 1998 all of them had been disbanded including the after school program in Eugene-Springfield. In September 1997, Cadet Captain Jason Westra was appointed the Commandant of the first academy under the Pioneer Youth Corps Academy Project with Michael Rossiter as the Academy Sergeant Major. The enrollment started with two cadets, and continued to grow from there. By the fall of 1998 the program had 18 cadets and two more districts had signed contracts to refer students. In March 1998 PYCAP officially changed its name to the Pioneer Youth Corps Military Academy, no longer a pilot project but now was a full Academy program.
More growth and development came and by June 1999 the program was serving 17 school districts and had reached a maximum enrollment of 65 cadets. It was clear that this was serious program and had to become more professional and develop a more military atmosphere. By now the Academy was developing a waiting list and there was concern that students who needed the program could not attend because they could not get a referral from their district. In 1999 this problem was solved by the Oregon State Legislature, which passed Senate Bill 100 establishing the Charter School law. PYCO applied to develop the first military charter school in the US and was one of the first five charter schools developed in Oregon. Now students from anywhere in the country could enroll without a referral. To support the small outlying school districts, PYCO continued to operate an Alternative Education program in addition to the new Charter School. Since the program had out grown its space and would only get bigger, an arrangement was made to move into the old Willard Elementary School in Eugene. It only took a year to outgrow this and at 130 cadets the Academy needed its own facility.
PYCO purchased the old Eugene Moose Lodge in 2001 and moved in that summer. It took a lot of work and effort on the part of parents, cadets, and staff but classes opened in the new building in September 2001. The Academy remained in this building until June of 2003 when the Eugene School Board determined that the program did not fit their needs any longer and refused to renew the three-year Charter. The Academy had over 160 Cadets enrolled for the following year with no home. After intense negotiation the Fern Ridge School District agreed to pick up the charter and in September 2003 the new Willamette Leadership Academy opened in the old Central Elementary School under a Charter from the Fern Ridge School District.
In 2005 Colonel Lay retired from the position of corps commander. He and his wife Catherine remained on the PYCO board of directors. They retired from the board in 2011.
In February of 2012 the Willamette leadership academy board worked with the PYCO board and determined that the central elementary school in Veneta could not accept the growing number of cadets desiring to enroll due to facilities limitations. The WLA board commenced a casting about for a new location.
In August of 2012 the academy was released from its charter and obligations to the Fern ridge school board and received a new charter with the Springfield school district. In the same month the academy relocated to its present location of the old Goshen elementary school with nine companies; A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and I.
The program grew to such proportions that more facilities were required. In 2013 PYCO activated a second battalion, comprised of the middle school and with the help of the Springfield school district occupied the Mohawk school.

Septic systemc can vary in their components.
It is important to know why you have a septic system, and basic understanding of how it works. It is also important for you to know your particular system and each of its components. Knowing your system can help you maintain it correctly, increase its longevity, and prevent unwanted emergencies.
If you are unsure what makes up your system, and if you are not already in our database, you can make an appointment for a septic system assessment. During the apointment we can educate you on your system including locating your system, and important maintenance requirments.
A septic system is designed to treat the waste water from the home on the house's property so that the waste water is not polluting any ground or surface water source. Most septic systems have two major parts to it. The first part is the septic tank. The septic tank is there to allow any solids in the waste water to settle out from the liquid. The solids are stored in the septic tank until the tank is pumped out. The liquid portion of the waste water flows out of the septic tank into a treatment area. Conventional treatment areas are called tile fields. This refers to large amounts of pipes with holes in the bottom being laid in the ground with a special type of stone under the pipes. This allows the waste water liquid to be distributed over the stones and be filtered by the ground of any harmful elements before it makes its way back to the ground water table. There are two main types of tile fields. The first uses the native soil to filter the waste water, and the second uses soil or sand that has been trucked in for use as the filter. When soil or sand is trucked in it is because the native soil is not suitable as a filter for the waste water.
Other treatment systems use methods that are able to treat the waste water liquid better then conventional systems in a smaller amount of space. This is done by using air loving or aerobic bacteria to treat the waste water. The bacteria are contained within a treatment unit that contains some form of filter media that the bacteria can cling to. Examples of filter media are peat moss like in the Ecoflo systems. Or foam sponges like in the Waterloo bio filter.The size of the septic tank that is used and the length of distribution pipe, or size of treatment unit, that is used is determined by factors in the home including number of bedrooms, square footage, and number of plumbing fixtures in the home. If your septic system does not have any type of dispersal or treatment for the wastewater it is called a holding tank. A holding tank requires emptying as often as it takes to fill the tank up with waste water.


But for a part, production was lost!
Every day, we transport valves, pumps, electrical panels and much more to offshore bases to supply rigs and turbines around the UK.
We know just how much production and revenue can be lost due to a simple part failure. We also know the meaning of 'in a hurry'.
That's why our dedicated vehicle system will ensure that, whatever it is that is needed, we will get it there without delay. Whatever it is, wherever it is needed, we will get it there for you, today!

Bourne End railway station serves Bourne End in Buckinghamshire, England. It is on the Marlow Branch Line between  and ,  down the line from Maidenhead and  measured from .

Services are provided by Great Western Railway. The ticket office is open on weekday and Saturday mornings. There is a customer car park south of the station. The station has two platforms.

History
The station was originally named Marlow Road station. In 1874 Marlow Road station was renamed Bourne End to obviate confusion with the newly opened Marlow station.

The station was opened in 1854 as part of the Wycombe Railway Company line between  station and . To reach Bourne End, a wooden viaduct was built across Cockmarsh and a wooden bridge was built across the River Thames.

In 1873 a line linking Bourne End with Marlow was opened to the public, with 1,700 tickets being sold in the first week. Originally the branch line was served by a third platform on the west side of the station.

The service on the branch line is known locally as the "Marlow Donkey", which is commemorated by a local pub of the same name, although the origin of the term is unclear. The 'small' waiting room building from Bourne End Station (left of picture) lives on at Bourne Again Junction on the Fawley Hill Railway, home of the late Sir William McAlpine. A camping coach was positioned here by the Western Region in 1960.

Partial closure
British Rail closed the line between Bourne End and High Wycombe in May 1970, but trains still run between Maidenhead and Marlow.

Future
It has been proposed that the Line between Bourne End and High Wycombe be reopened. A feasibility study is under way to see if it is economic to do so.

Services
Bourne End is a terminus but effectively acts as a through station, with the driver having to change ends to continue to the next station. During peak hours service frequency is increased by having two trains work the line, each using Bourne End as the terminus: one runs Marlow – Bourne End and one Maidenhead – Bourne End, with passengers changing trains at Bourne End. This service pattern is needed to meet peak-time demand, as the platforms at Bourne End are not long enough to accommodate longer trains. While Bourne End has two platforms, platform 2 is only accessible from Maidenhead and not from Marlow, and so cannot be used as a passing loop. Since May 2017 there are no through trains to London Paddington.

The basic daytime service runs hourly each way to Maidenhead & Marlow seven days a week, with the additional peak services operating half hourly Monday to Friday only.

BRITISH GOVERNMENT CONCERNED OVER ALLEGATIONS OF CORRUPTION IN KOH TAO MURDER INVESTIGATION
In Hannah Witheridge and David Miller, murders, Uncategorised by Andrew Drummond 25th October 2014
On the day British police finally made it to the Thai island of Koh Tao the scene of the murders of Hannah Witheridge and David Miller, Britain's Foreign Office has stated that it is concerned not only about the alleged mistreatment of the two Burmese men now held in Koh Samui jail but also concerned about allegations of corruption.
This is the first time the British authorities have referred to corruption in the Thai Police investigation and the term was used in answers to ten questions submitted by the local newspaper the East Anglian Daily Times.
On being asked how confident it was that those responsible for the killings would be brought to justice the FCO replied:
"We want to see the perpetrators of this crime brought to justice and we have asked the Thai authorities to keep our Embassy in Bangkok closely informed on their investigation.
The British government cannot interfere in Thailand's judicial proceedings, just as other governments are unable to interfere in our own judicial processes.
That said, we are very concerned by the allegations of corruption and mistreatment of the suspects and it is very important that whoever committed these murders is brought to justice.
We call for the investigation to be conducted in a fair and transparent way, in line with international standards."
It is not clear what allegations of corruption the FCO are referring to. There have been public allegations that they offered to pay a taxi driver to give false testimony, but other allegations relating to the police relationship to a local island family, which in the view of many has access to the truth, have only been mentioned in social media.
The FCO stated: "A detective chief inspector from the Metropolitan Police Service Homicide and Major Crime Command and a forensic operations co-ordinator from Forensic Services have been deployed and are in Thailand."
The Bangkok Post reported today that other officers had already been on the island since Friday.
COMMENT: If Thailand needs to get 'in line' with international standards it should of course remove the shackles of the two Burmese, Win Zaw Htun and Zaw Lin.

Fumigation Saint John is a method of pest control that would fill an area with fumigants or gaseous pesticides to poison or suffocate the pests within. It is the sole method utilized to control pests in soil, produce, grain, and in buildings and it is used in processing of goods that are to be exported and imported. This is done to prevent the transfer of any exotic organisms. For your termite and pest control needs, Furthur can provide you with the highest level of services.
There are lots of methods that can effectively eradicate pests but when everything else fails, rely on Furthur's fumigation Saint John experts to do the job. If you are currently overwhelmed by the pest infestation in your home, all you need to do is contact the representatives of Furthur. Their Saint John fumigation services, especially termite fumigation Saint John, has proven to make homes and establishments pest-free. The specialists of Furthur know that you would want to eliminate the termites and pests that are upsetting your life as quickly as possible. Because of this, they would make the entire process enjoyable and easy for you. Furthur genuinely cares about their customer's experience and it shows in all of their services.
How should I prepare for fumigation in Saint John?
When scheduled for a fumigation in Saint John, you should know what to have inside and out the house because when fumigation chemicals come into contact with some household items, it might be dangerous for your health. You should use nylofume bags to pack your drinks, store food, and things like animal feed. Your foodstuff should be stored in glass bottles, jars, cans and so on. You should also remove your indoor plants and even the ones on the patio from your property until the fumigation is complete. Remove all your beddings, mattresses, pillows and so on. Also, during the fumigation, there should be no people in the structure. Only the professionals should be allowed into the property. You should also arrange for the safekeeping of your pets which might also include fish and reptiles to stay away from the property until it's safe to go back.
Will my outdoor plants get affected during the fumigation in Saint John?
Most likely not, but it also depends on the fumigation chemicals and techniques the specialists use during the fumigation in Saint John. The proximity of the plants might at times factor in as the tarp sometimes covers a portion of the plants if they're really close to the house. In such cases, professionals take measures to make sure the least harm comes to your plants during the process if they cannot prevent it at all. However, any indoor growing plants, potted or otherwise should be taken out of the property.
How I'm I sure that my belongings will stay safe during the fumigation in Saint John process?
If need be, the fumigation companies will always make sure you both account for everything in the house before and after the fumigation in Saint John; and in the case of any damages or theft, you might get compensated. They will also make sure that everything gets returned to its rightful position.
Where do you need the Fumigation done?

A Few Things Creative Writing Can Teach Accelerate...
A Few Things Creative Writing Can Teach Accelerated Composition
davidstarkey
(A Brief Homage to Wendy Bishop)
I was lucky to learn from and collaborate with the late Wendy Bishop, whose loss—more than sixteen years ago now—is still hard for me to accept. Wendy was a force of nature, a whirlwind of ideas about how to create better writers and better teachers of writing. Her early focus was on employing composition scholarship to inform the teaching of creative writing, but she quickly became just as, if not more, interested in ways that creative writing could bring life to expository writing courses.
Wendy's first book, Released into Language, was published in 1990, the year I began full-time college teaching, so she has been a constant presence in my thinking about pedagogy. Whenever I encounter a new teaching challenge, I wonder how Wendy would face it, and now that nearly all first-semester composition courses in California's community colleges are accelerated, I'm returning once again to her work for ideas and inspiration.
Always ahead of the curve, Wendy seems to have intuited acceleration's insight that students are ill-served by what Katie Hern calls "layers of remedial coursework." Wendy writes in Released into Language that it "is no longer effective to remain tied to hierarchical ways of thinking," arguing:
We should not assume that "basic" writing instruction should take place at "lower levels," while upper-level classes exist merely to sort the "best" writers into smaller and smaller cadres. Instead, teachers need to look at the beliefs, goals, and pedagogy for each of these levels and to dismantle artificial "class" boundaries that have been formed, mainly, by a relatively unstructured historical progression. (xvi-xvii)
Wendy's punning on "'class'" is particularly appropriate to acceleration, as one of its chief goals is to break down the class (and racial) barriers that keep students entangled in pre-college-level classes.
Another aspect of Wendy's work that is especially germane to acceleration is her persistent turning from the theoretical to the practical. Yes, she was concerned to ground her pedagogy in writing research, but she was never content to leave an idea alone until she could figure out how to apply it in the classroom. For all its cutting-edge scholarship, Released into Language is also a goldmine of specific ways that teachers can help their students become better writers. Wendy emphasizes the importance of course design and generative writing, which, are crucial in acceleration, where students benefit from clearly articulated goals and lots of help early in the writing process, when the blank page or screen can look so forbidding.
Accelerated composition instructors often teach Carol Dweck's work on growth and fixed mindsets and Angela Duckworth's ideas about grit, but Wendy was there much earlier, letting writers know that failure is not only okay, it's inevitable—and temporary. "'Take Risks Yourself'" was the title of an interview I published with her, and she was forever pushing herself, and the writers around her—both student and professional—to experiment and expand their repertoire of rhetorical moves, even if it meant falling on our faces.
Wendy loathed the Old School workshop model, with the bored professor fixated on taking down his—almost always his—students a peg or two, but she loved to create settings in which students could share their work with one another. Above all, she was keen to shift the focus "from the production of texts to the development of students as writers" (Bishop and Starkey 38).
Accelerating students are often underconfident because they don't yet have a language for talking about when and where their writing is, or isn't, working. In The Subject Is Writing, Wendy maintains that "a well taught composition or creative writing class should allow you to explore writing beliefs, writing types (genres) and their attributes and your own writing process. You will be successful to the degree that you become invested in your own work" (251). Metacognition, which is so essential to acceleration, was second nature to Wendy: a writing task was never complete until the writer had examined and learned from it.
Most importantly, she though writing was fun, an insight I am always trying to convey to my students. Wendy wrote all the time, and sometimes seemed to put as much passion into her emails as she did into her poems, essays and books.
I received my last email shortly before she died on November 21, 2003, at the age of 50 from complications caused by acute lymphoblastic leukemia. She talked briefly about her illness, but her focus, as always, was on the work ahead of her. Afterwards, I remember thinking, How she loved to write! As an epitaph, I think that would have made her smile.

I too was lucky enough to work with the amazing Wendy. She did much to blur the lines between creative writing and composition. She taught many of us the value of process oriented vs mastery models in our classroom pedagogy and to see students as writers. Ownership, creativity, metacognition -- her lessons still resonate for us today. Thanks for these great reminders.

Köprülü Ahmed törökül Köprülü Fazıl Ahmed, horvátosan Ahmed Ćuprilić (1635 k. – Konstantinápoly 1676. október 19.) albán származású oszmán nagyvezír.  Az ő és apja, Köprülü Mehmed nevéhez köthető az Oszmán Birodalom lassú hanyatlásának ideiglenes megállítása.

Élete

Apja helyét 1661-ben vette át és egy ideig az oszmán hadakat irányította a kandiai háborúban (1648–69) a velenceiek ellen. Kivételesen tehetséges és kemény politikus volt. Neki, akárcsak elődeinek célja Bécs elfoglalása, Nagy Szulejmán álma, de tudta, hogy új módszerekre van szükség. Terve szerint, előbb meghódítja a Királyi Magyarországot, Horvátországot, Morvaországot és Sziléziát, gyűrűt vonva ezzel a császárváros köré, mert világosan látta, hogy életveszélyes egyből Bécs falainak vezetni a török sereget.

1663-ban elinduló újabb Habsburg–török háború keretében, 1664-ben kb. 60 ezer főnyi seregével vonult a Kanizsát ostromló keresztény sereg ellen. Zrínyi Miklós visszavonult előle, s nem sokkal később, június 30-án a nagyvezír elfoglalta Zrínyiújvárt. A vár felmentését Raimondo Montecuccoli császári generális végre se tudta hajtani a seregében levő káosz és elégtelen létszám miatt.

Köprülü serege mintegy másfélszázezer fősre növekedett, de komoly utánpótlási gondokkal küszködött. Bár parancsa volt rá, hogy Bécset meghódítsa, de mindenekelőtt Magyarországot és néhány osztrák tartományt kívánt elfoglalni. A Rába vonalának vette az irányt, hogy a fontos átjárót megszerezze. Vele szemben a Montecuccoli által vezetett, az oszmánoknál kb. hatszor kisebb erejű osztrák-német-francia hadak és horvát segédcsapatok Szentgotthárdnál vívtak csatát augusztus 1-jén. A keresztények nyílt csatában legyőzték a Rábán átkelni próbáló törököket. Egyfelől szerencséjük is volt, mert Köprülü egy helyen próbálta megtenni az átkelést, de a döntő ütközetet 2-án akarta megvívni. A csatában mintegy  emberét vesztette el, seregének harci morálja megtört. Köprülü jól tudta, milyen veszélyekkel jár az azonnali visszavonulás, ezért egy napig még a csatatéren maradt, és megszervezte a rendezett visszavonulást. A keresztény sereg a folyó áradása és különféle anyagi hiányosságok miatt nem tudott átkelni a Rábán, hogy üldözhesse.

Mivel a Habsburg Birodalom nem a török kiűzésével, hanem a francia vetélytársakkal törődött, csakhamar engedékeny békét kötött Vasváron. A szultán a vereség ellenére megtarthatta a háborúban megszerzett területeket.

1669-ben a kandiai háborút is lezárták Velencével. Közben Ukrajnában, az ottani kozákság, Petro Dorosenko hetman vezetésével felkínálta az ország feletti uralmat IV. Mehmed szultánnak, amennyiben kiűzi onnan az oroszokat és a lengyeleket. A nagyvezír, és a szultán a krími tatárokkal és a román vajdákkal közösen óriási létszámú sereggel indultak Ukrajna meghódítására, 1672-ben. Csatlakoztak a kozákok is, és bevették a török-lengyel határ fő védelmezőjét Kamienec-Podolski várát, s alávetették Podolét és Délnyugat-Ukrajnát. E hadjáratban vett részt a nagyvezír oldalán kajmakámként Kara Musztafa, majdani utódja, aki később, 1683-ban Bécs alatt irányította a vesztes oszmán hadakat.

A lengyelek azonban visszaszerezték az elvett területeket és Sobieski János legyőzte a törököket a chocimi csatában (1673). Ezekben a hadjáratokban Köprülü Ahmed már nem vett részt, és a lengyel–török háború után meghalt.

Határozott politikájával ideiglenesen megállította a birodalom hanyatlását, amely azonban halála után tovább folytatódott. Testvére, Musztafa későbbi nagyvezír a szalánkeméni csatában esett el, 1691-ben.

Life of Ramakrishna | 10. Pilgrimage
10. Pilgrimage
About four years before the incidents narrated towards the close of the last chapter—in 1868— Mathur and his wife arranged for a pilgrimage to Northern India and wanted Śrī Ramakrishna to accompany them.
At their earnest request the Master consented to be one of the party.
They started on 27 January, and halted for a few days at Deoghar to visit the shrine of Vaidyānātha. Here an interesting thing happened:
One day while passing through a neighbouring village Śrī Ramakrishna was greatly distressed to see the wretched condition of its people.
Moved with sympathy for them, he said to Mathur:
"You are the steward of the Mother. Feed these poor people and give everyone a piece of cloth."
Mathur at first hesitated saying:
"This pilgrimage will cost a lot of money, and these people are very numerous. We may be short of funds on the journey if we try to feed and clothe them. So what do you say to this, father?"
But Śrī Ramakrishna was inexorable. He shed tears at the sight of such abject misery and said in anguish:
"Fie upon you! I am not going to Varanasi. I prefer to remain with these helpless people."
Like a petulant child he left Mathur's company and sat with the poor villagers.
At the sight of his compassion, Mathur was much moved; and he ordered bales of cloth from Calcutta to distribute among them, and fed them as well.
Śrī Ramakrishna then cheerfully started for Varanasi. As he approached Varanasi by boat across the Ganga, the City of Shiva appeared to him to be made of gold—'a condensed mass of spirituality.'
It seemed as if the precious thoughts of countless monks and devotees had accumulated there, making the place an abode of the gods.
Śrī Ramakrishna used to visit the shrine of Viśvanātha, the presiding Deity of the place, almost daily. He would fall into a trance even on the way, as well as in the presence of the Deity. He also went to visit the noted monks of Varanasi.
One day he paid a visit to the famous Trailanga Swami, who was then under a vow of silence. The Swami beckoned him to take seat and held out his snuff-box to him as a mark of welcome.
Śrī Ramakrishna asked him some questions, which the Swami replied by gestures.
Trailanga Swami was then constructing a bathing ghat. At the instance of Śrī Ramakrishna, one of his attendants dug a few spades of earth for the work, which pleased the Swami greatly.
The Master invited him one day to the home of Mathur and entertained him with great respect.
After about a week's stay at Varanasi the party moved on to A-bad, where all bathed in the sacred confluence of the Ganga and the Yamuna. After three days the party returned to Varanasi.
At the end of a fortnight the Master and his party went to Vrindāvan. During his stay there Śrī Ramakrishna was always in high spirits.
This sacred place, rich in the countless sweet memories of Śrī Krishna, constantly filled his heart with unspeakable emotion. Even the slightest suggestion was enough to plunge him into an ecstasy of delight.
It was with great difficulty that he could manage to keep his feelings under control. Sometimes they would break all barriers and throw him into deep and prolonged trances.
At Vrindāvan he visited Ganga Mata, a Vaishnava woman devotee, noted for her great spiritual realizations. About sixty years old, she had spent the greater part of her life at this holy place.
At the very first sight she understood the greatness of Śrī Ramakrishna and considered herself blessed to have met him. Śrī Ramakrishna also was charmed with her piety and devotion.
He stayed at Vrindāvan for about a fortnight. He visited Mathura also.
As in Vrindāvan so also in Mathura, Śrī Ramakrishna was in an ineffable spiritual mood—his mind constantly soaring high—especially at the sight of the spots associated with the memory of Śrī Krishna.
The Master returned with the party to Varanasi, where they stayed till May.
On his return journey Mathur had a mind to visit Gaya. But as Śrī Ramakrishna declined to go there, he had to give up the project.
The Master thought that if he once visited that sacred place, his mind would leave the physical plane for ever:
He knew of his father's vision at Gaya before his birth, and was convinced that his mind would become permanently absorbed in God there.
He considered himself an instrument in the hand of the Mother, and bowed to Her decree that his body should remain in the world to carry out Her divine purpose.
Accordingly the party returned to Calcutta direct.
It was now sixteen years since Mathur had first met Śrī Ramakrishna. A wonderful change had been wrought in his mind during this period.
In the month of July, 1871, Mathur was suddenly taken ill with typhoid fever. From the beginning Śrī Ramakrishna knew that this was to be the end for Mathur.
The fateful day arrived. Mathur was carried to Kālīghat. That day the Master fell into a deep trance, which lasted two or three hours.
After 5 p.m. Śrī Ramakrishna regained outward consciousness and calling Hriday to him said that Mathur's soul had gone to the Divine Mother. Late at night the news reached Dakshineswar that Mathur had died exactly at five o'clock.
With the death of Mathur there passed away a figure closely associated with Śrī Ramakrishna during the most eventful epoch of his life.


Karlie and Kevin are going to get my long distance wedding award this year. These two came all the way from Oklahoma to Karlie's native NJ to celebrate their wedding at the beautiful Neshanic Valley Golf Course. Despite the hot weather, we had a fantastic time working with the newlyweds and their family and friends. Narrowing down my favorites from this one was way too difficult so I'm just going to post a bunch!

Commercialization of Intellectual Property by Universities and Research Institutes: the U.S. Experience and Possibilities for Its Use within Ukraine

1Kyiv Institute of Intellectual Property and Law of the National University Odessa Law Academy
2Ukrainian Research and Technology Center, Kyiv
The model of intellectual property commercialization in the U.S. universities is discussed. To a large extent, the success of this model is based on three fundamental conditions proceeding from the Bayh-Dole and the Stevenson-Wydler laws: a) the universities and federal laboratories are granted with ownership rights to intellectual property developed at the expense of federal funds, b) the universities and federal laboratories are charged with responsibility and obligation to commercialize these rights, and c) the royalties and licensing fees are shared between the university or laboratory and the inventors. The authors propose to enshrine in the law the developer's responsibility for the transfer of intellectual property created at the expense of public money to the industry.

John Pinkerton (1845 – 4 November 1908) was an Irish Protestant nationalist politician and Member of Parliament (MP) in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.  As a member of the Irish Parliamentary Party he represented Galway Borough from 1886 to 1900.

Pinkerton was born in Ballymoney, Co Antrim, the son of John Pinkerton of Seacon More. He was educated privately. He rose to local prominence as a member of the Ballymoney Debating and Agricultural Societies. He was a tenant farmer, a JP of Co Antrim, and served as a member of the Coleraine Board of Guardians.

He was a leading speaker and organiser in the tenant-right campaign from 1878-1888. He sympathised increasingly with the Catholics of north Antrim in their support for the national Land League. Over the objections of many in the Ballymoney Agricultural Society, the Route Tenants Defence Association and Antrim Central Tenant-Right Association with which he had been associated, he endorsed the Land League as the best means to free "the white slaves of Ireland". In 1882 he invited Michael Davitt and John Ferguson to a meeting in Ballymoney. He joined them in denouncing the inadequacies of the 1881 Land Act which had abjured compulsory sale to tenants. "Landlordism", he asserted, "is doomed. ... Landlords should either sell out or buy out." Protested by Orangemen beating their drums, the meeting was followed by serious disturbances.

During the Land War he was involved with the Ballycastle and Loughguile Land League branches.

Pinkerton was an unsuccessful candidate in the 1885 general election in which he stood as an independent "representative of small farmers and labourers" for the North Antrim constituency. Despite defeat, he so impressed the Irish Parliamentary Party that he, a Protestant tenant farmer, was picked by Charles Stewart Parnell as the party candidate for Galway Borough in the 1886 general election in which he was successful.

During his 14-year career as an MP, and as a founder member of the Protestant Home Rule Association, he was active in advancing the cause of Home Rule and Land reform at Liberal demonstrations throughout Scotland and England.

In 1873, he married Isabella, daughter of Robert Pinkerton, of Ballaghmore, Co Antrim. They had one son and one daughter. Another daughter died in infancy.

In 1913, their son, John Wallace Pinkerton (1878-1949), a solicitor, was an organiser in Ballymoney of a "Meeting of Protestants" at which Roger Casement, Alice Stopford Green, and Captain Jack White spoke in protest against "the illegal policy of Carsonism"—the preparation by unionists of an armed resistance to an Irish parliament.
