Sima is the second Bangladeshi woman to be included in BBC's list of influential and inspirational women

A Bangladeshi woman has been included in BBC's "100 Women 2018".

Sima Sarker, 44, was included in the list as a mother who had to carry her 18-year-old disabled son to an examination centre every year, and whose story later went viral, reports BBC.

BBC 100 Women names 100 influential and inspirational women from around the world every year to share their stories. The women gather to discuss the issues and achievements they face in the society today.

Sima joins a list which includes other prominent figures such as


Peruvian author Isabel Allende, Chelsea Clinton, vice-chairman of the Clinton Foundation and daughter of former US President Bill Clinton and former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Russian model Svetlena Alekseeva, and others.

Sima is the second Bangladeshi woman to be included in the 100 Women list, as previously, Rubana Haq, a Bangladeshi entrepreneur, writer and philanthropist, was included in the 2013 list.

Nadiya Hossain, a British baker, author and television presenter with Bangladeshi origins, was also included in the list of BBC 100 Women in 2016.

BBC 100 Women started in 2013 with a gathering of 100 women at the BBC's London headquarters, Broadcasting House, for a day of debate and discussion.

But that was as close as the Wolves would get.

Ellington had a chance to trim the lead to three points, but his long shot fell short. The Grizzlies won the foul-and-free-throw game and recorded their seventh victory in a row against the Wolves.

Since beating the Trail Blazers on March 7 and putting themselves in playoff position, the Wolves are 3-8 and now firmly on the outside looking in. Overall this season, the Wolves are 11-15 on the road.

They are now 3.5 games behind Denver for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference and trail two other teams (Houston and Phoenix).

The skinny

The Wolves were once again without guard J.J. Barea and center Nikola Pekovic after the two remained in


the Twin Cities to continue rehabbing their injuries.

The Wolves appeared to catch a break on the injury front when it was announced before the game that All-Star center Marc Gasol of the Grizzlies would miss his first game of the season because of a sprained ankle.

Two days after a hot shooting performance gave them an easy victory over the Nuggets, the Wolves shot only 38.8 percent in the loss. Take out the combined 16 of 32 shots made by Love and Ellington and the rest of the Wolves shot a combined 32 percent.

Love finished with 28 points and 11 rebounds in 38 minutes for another double-double. He also added four blocks, two assists and a steal.

The only other Wolves starter in double-figures was Derrick Williams, who scored 14points in a team-high 41 minutes.

Ellington scored 15 points off the bench and now has put together four consecutive double-digit scoring games -- a feat only accomplished one other time in his career. He played 27 minutes -- five more than starter Wesley Johnson -- and added two rebounds, an assist and a steal.

Ridnour -- coming off a season-high 25-point performance against Denver - made only four of 13 shots in 38 minutes and it appeared his injured groin was bothering him more than it was against Denver. There was some question about whether Ridnour was healthy enough to play, but after Barea didn't make the trip the Wolves had little choice but to use the veteran.

The Grizzlies were led by Rudy Gay's 21 points, and Dante Cunningham


just had so many injuries and it just keeps putting him out and throwing off his rhythm," Adelman said.

The latest setback comes at a particularly frustrating time because Barea had seemed to finally get into the type of rhythm that made him a fixture with the NBA champion Dallas Mavericks last season.

Barea had 10-plus assists in his past three games and put together his first career triple-double in last Friday's double-overtime loss at Oklahoma City.

There was no further information on Pekovic's status. He was ruled out for the current trip on Sunday and the team is hoping the pain will subside so Pekovic can resume the season before undergoing offseason surgery to remove bone spurs in his ankle.

Up next

Another night, another flight. The Wolves left for Charlotte afterthe game where they play the second of back-to-back games on Wednesday night.

The Bobcats (7-40) are comically-inept this season and have their hopes set on owning the most ping-pong balls in the NBA draft lottery this summer -- something the Wolves know a little bit about.

The Wolves then return to Target Center on Friday to face Kevin Garnett and the Celtics at home for the only time this season. It will be only their second game at home since March 12.

HONOLULU – The Coast Guard, the Hawaii State Department of Health and the Robinson family continue to monitor the removal of fuel from a grounded fishing vessel at Kawaihoa Point, on the southern tip of Niihau Friday night.

Coast Guard marine safety personnel from Coast Guard Sector Honolulu traveled to the site today to assess the damage to the Wahine Kepaloa II and evaluate the area for fuel removal operations. Pacific Environmental Company has been hired to conduct the oil removal operation.

The master of the vessel estimated the vessel had less than 1,000 gallons of fuel aboard at the time of the grounding.

The master of the 44-foot vessel radioed a Mayday at about 7:15 p.m. Friday; the same time as an emergency signal was received from the vessel’s 406mHz emergency position indicating radio beacon at the Coast Guard’s command center here.

The two men donned their lifejackets and swam to shore. A Coast Guard HH-65 Dolphin helicopter and crew was sent from Barbers Point; the Coast Guard also issued an urgent request for assistance from mariners in the area. The master of the cruise ship Pride of America diverted to assist. The cruise ship’s crew used high-powered search lights to search the area.

The helicopter crew airlifted the two survivors from the cliffs and returned them to Kauai. Neither survivor reported any injuries.


Homeowners underwater

About one in five central Ohio homeowners owe more on their mortgage than their home is worth,
according to figures released today by the mortgage information company CoreLogic.

The company found that during the third quarter, 82,042, or 20.7 percent, of central Ohio
homeowners with mortgages were "underwater," compared to 20.1 percent during the second quarter.
Another 7.1 percent have less than 5 percent equity in their home.

Central Ohio homeowners are faring slightly better than U.S. homeowners, 22.1 percent of whom
are underwater (also referred to as "upside down"). That's down a bit from 22.5 percent during the
second quarter.

"Although slightly down, negative equity remains very high and renders many borrowers vulnerable
when negative economic shocks occur, such as job loss or illness," said Mark Fleming, chief
economist with CoreLogic.

Throughout Ohio, 22.6 percent of homeownersto avoid holidays, because that is when lots of people have days off from work and school and will also be looking for a vacation.

September and early October are your best bets because school is in session and it is the peak of hurricane season. The first two weeks of December and the weeks following New Years in January are good times for deals too because with Christmas and New Years holidays, most folks will not take a vacation right before or right after. Plus, school is in session during both times.

Pick older ships

Royal Caribbean likes to shine the spotlight on its newest and greatest ships and it makes sense because those ships offer so many cool new innovations. But if you are in the market for a

Royal Caribbean has a fleet of 23 ships and the basic rule is the newer the ship, the higher premium for it.

You can often find better deals on these ships

Deals can also be found on other Vision, Radiance and Voyager class ships but it will largely depend on other factors.

Just because a ship is older, does not mean it will be boring or not worth your time. Rather, Royal Caribbean has poured millions of dollars into these ships in the last few years to refurbish them with ammenities and activities that were first introduced on the OasisA friend confessed to me recently that this was the only film to have given him, in adult life, a proper wake-up-sweating nightmare.

It Follows is from the American director David Robert Mitchell, whose 2010 debut movie, The Myth of the American Sleepover, was a gentle, unthreatening drama about teens and platonic crushes. That was Dr Jekyll to the snarling Mr Hyde of this new one. It genuinely is disturbing.

What Mitchell has given us is a contemporary reworking of ideas from MR James; in particular, his 1911 ghost story Casting the Runes. Jay (Maika Monroe) is


a high-school student who has just started to date a nice enough guy called Hugh (Jake Weary); the rest of the time she hangs out with her sister Kelly (Lili Sepe), Yara (Olivia Luccardi) and a shy childhood friend called Paul (Keir Gilchrist) who has long had a hopeless crush on her. Jay’s normal sex life takes its normal course, but then she finds out, too late, that she has been inducted without her knowledge into a supernatural death cult. The sex act means that she will be followed, at a zombie’s walking-pace, by a demon that only she can see, and which will kill her.

Enlarge this image toggle caption Museo Nacional del Prado Museo Nacional del Prado

Spain's national art museum, the Prado, has been around nearly 200 years and has one of the world's biggest collections of Renaissance and Baroque art.

But only now has it devoted a solo exhibition to a female artist: the 17th century Flemish painter Clara Peeters.

Not much is known about Peeters' life. The mysteries include her family background, the dates of her birth and death, and even her age in 1607, when she painted her first known work — a dark, intricate still life of a candlestick next to sprig of rosemary and a glass of wine. Barely 40 of her paintings have survived the centuries.


Fifteen now hang in the Prado as part of this exhibition, many on loan from other museums and collections. Most were painted in 1611 and 1612.

A few of Peeters' paintings had been in the Prado for years, mixed in with other artists from the Baroque period in northern Europe. But until now, she never had a room of her own.

When the Prado decided a few years ago to search for a female artist to showcase, the museum's director went to Alejandro Vergara, the senior curator of northern European paintings. Vergara says Peeters immediately came to mind.

But Vergara also tells a personal story from several years earlier, when his wife at the time came to visit himto be seen."

She was trying to be seen in the 17th century art world, run by all-male art guilds. Peeters may have come from a family of painters. But she wasn't a household name — then or now.

"That was, I must admit, the first time I heard her name," says Flemish Culture Minister Sven Gatz, describing the call he received from Prado officials inviting him to this exhibition of a Flemish painter. He says he had to look up who Peeters was.

"But it was quite nice to see that the old masters were not always the 'old boys,'" Gatz says. "There were also women."

In modern art, there's more gender parity. But when you browse through collections of medieval, Renaissance or


Baroque art, it's mostly male artists.

"I think there have been equal numbers of male and female artists. It's just that we have history being told exclusively through male eyes and voices," says Micol Hebron, a feminist artist, activist and associate professor at Chapman University in California.

A few years ago, Hebron launched Gallery Tally, a survey of gender in hundreds of museums and galleries worldwide. She says she found that even in contemporary art, there's a roughly 70-30 split of male versus female artists on display. With older art, it's even harder to find women — but that doesn't mean they weren't there, she says.

"There were many women artists who took on the names of male artists or who had anonymous attributions to their work — or who weredoing the work in male artists' studios and were under-acknowleged," Hebron explains. "A lot of that information is no longer secret."

Museums are now starting to act. Over the past decade, the National Gallery in London has held at least two solo female shows. The Louvre in Paris has spotlighted contemporary women's art. The Royal Museum of Fine Art in Antwerp, Belgium — Clara Peeters' hometown — recently hosted a solo exhibition of her work, including many of the paintings now on loan to the Prado.

In conjunction with the Clara Peeters exhibition, which runs through Feb. 19, 2017, the Prado is hosting an academic conference on women in art, organized by Maria Cruz de Carlos, an art


historian who specializes in religious images, women's culture and engravings.

"The historical facts deny the idea that women didn't have a presence in the arts. They always did," Carlos says. "It's art history that has hidden that presence."

She says stodgy old art museums, rooted in tradition, are slowly changing. The Prado's collection includes more than 5,000 male artists and 41 women — though it likely has more, with their works labeled as "anonymous," Carlos says.

As women emerge from behind those works, they reveal their role in an art world mistakenly seen for centuries as all-male.

Clara Peeters made that clear, with her self-portraits popping out of dark corners in her still life paintings — demanding to be seen.final steps for bringing a powerful and coherent experience at anytime and anywhere in the world of We Happy Few!

"Iwant to give a picture of Dublin so complete that if the city suddenly disappeared from the
earth it could be reconstructed out of my book." --James Joyce (Budgen 69)

Introduction

Imagine no longer having any recollection of your hometown because it doesn’t exist anymore. This was the thought of James Joyce when he began to write the short stories Dubliners, in 1914. Joyce wrote the short stories in Dubliners in chronological order by age, to give the reader a perspective of Dublin to each age group. He was able to create a real life image of his hometown Dublin, the place in which he grew up and spent part of his life living in. In creating the book, he introduced places that hemay have visited in his childhood and into adulthood. In order to preserve his city, he filled a lifetime of information into a single group, in order to interpret and introduce the people of Dublin to the readers. Overall, the aspects of James Joyce’s story, the Dubliners agree with the time period of Dublin, in depiction of religion, political, economical, and geographical locations.

Catholics vs Protestants: The Historical Picture

In the late 19th Century and early 20th Centuries the Catholics and Protestants clashed. This clash between the two sectors of Christianity was due to the superiority of the Protestant minority in the social classes. According to Joseph V. O’Brien the clash was due to the superior economic and social status that the Protestants had. “Dublin Protestants continued to wield a


disproportionate share of the social power and influence that derived from their status in the occupation hierarchy” (O’Brien, 40). The Protestants held most of the prestigious, high paying jobs compared to the Catholics who generally had lower-paying and more labor-intensive jobs. This created a tension between the two groups, which divided the population of Ireland. The Protestants looked down upon the poorer Catholics, while the Catholics were envious of the Protestants superior economic status (O’Brien 39-44). James H. Murphy illustrates the effects of this divide in his book Evangelicals And Catholics In Nineteenth-Century Ireland, in which he argues that the Catholics were made very self conscience about their religion due to their socio-economic status. Murphy portrays the Catholics loyalty to the church and resistance to insult of theirreligion in his statement, “The faith of the Irish Catholics is so strongly planted in their breast, no matter how poor they may be, that they would prefer to die or suffer any amount of coercion rather that have faith that faith subjected to insult” (Murphy 226). This quote portrays how a follower of Catholicism would risk his or her life to defend their beliefs in a heartbeat.

The Church had great influence on the people during this time period. In his book James H. Murphy argues that the Church was very influential upon the decisions the Catholics made. The Churches held great sway during this time because of their position in the Irish culture. During this time the Catholic Church put very strict rules on its followers. Followers


of the Catholic Church were extremely disciplined and listened to every rule the Church laid down. This made the Church very powerful in the country of Ireland. The people looked to the Church for their daily need and obeyed every rule in fear of going to hell and their desire to go to heaven (Murphy, 142).

According to Murphy, this power of the Catholic Church has both good and bad features as a whole for the country. The good of this power is that beliefs of moral discipline and duty outweighed the impulses of violence in conflicts. This factor is very important because it gives the Church the power to act as a police force and eliminating the peoples will to strike back. The bad of the power isthat the Church also had the power to disturb other sectors of Christianity. Overall, the church had the power to alter people’s views of morality. The Church had the power to alter people’s decisions and the ability to decide what the views of their followers were on almost anything. With this influence the Church had the power to control its followers in almost any situation (Murphy 163). The priests of both religions, Catholicism and Protestantism, during this time period, despite their power and prestige, still had problems with crooked religious officials. Murphy characterizes such problems through the example of a bishop “.Describes the bishop as a ‘very useful personage’ who could charge higher prices for his religious and social efforts as a Bishop’s spiritual services were naturally of


greater value than those of the inferior clergy (Murphy, 137). During the time period, the Church had some officials that abased this power for their personal monetary gain. The religious officials had the power and influence of their followers, they also had the power to use this to their advantage for their selfish greediness (Murphy, 137-140).

Catholics vs Protestant: Dubliners

Religion is a theme in Dubliners that reoccurs throughout many of its stories. James Joyce is able to depict how religion plays a role in daily life in almost every story. In the short story “The Sisters,” the plot revolves around the death of a priest who was the mentor of a young boy. This priest had much influence over the young boy. This priest influenced the boy just likethe Church influenced the people of Ireland during the time period. The religious officials were very well respected and had a huge responsibility; this was portrayed in the book through the breakdown of the priest due to religious pressure. The priest was overwhelmed by the strict rules of the Church. “...He was too scrupulous always, [she said]. The duties of the priesthood was too much for him” (Joyce p.9). This quote shows how the priest broke down because of the importance the role of the Church played and how he was so afraid of making a mistake because he would lose respect as a priest.
In the story “An Encounter,” a group of boys ditch school in order to go on an adventure they had always desired to go


on. Joyce is able to show the tension between the two groups in this story in a comment from a stranger to the boys. The boys are accused from another group of kids of being Protestants. The boys are yelled at, being called, “Swaddlers! Swaddlers” (Joyce, 14). The boys are quick to say that they are not Protestants. This use of language and the boys reactions show that the boys absolutely do not want to be confused with Protestants. The teacher of the boys is a priest as well, and the school is a Catholic school. The teacher who is a priest makes the comment to one of the boys on his view on how the catholic school is better than that of the National school. This commentshows that the Catholics think they are better in a school alone then being integrated with Protestants. This comment by the teacher emphasizes the tensions between these two religions (Joyce p.11-20).

The story "Grace" by James Joyce is about a middle-aged alcoholic. The man falls down a flight of stairs and creates a scene which leads his friends to decide they must change his alcoholic ways. They attempt to reintroduce him to the Catholic Church. In doing so,the men try to save their friend by teaching him about the Church, their information however regarding the Church is invalid. In the story, Joyce is able to show the view of the Protestants; they believe they are superior


for years and is also included in the “Ivy Day in Committee Room.” “Ivy Day in the Committee Room,” was created because of an election that took place in Dublin between the two candidates Tierney and Colgan. The story began with a peddler named Mat O’Connor quarreling with a fellow peddler, Joe Hynes. Hynes joined O’Connor at a pub and began to instigate him, by accusing Richard Tierney, the candidate that O’Connor supports, of being sympathetic with the British, even though he claims to be a nationalist. Siding with the British appears to be a bad move as it earns Tierney many enemies including the support character, Hynes. The characters in the story in "Ivy Day" obviously have not forgotten their recent history (Joyce 115-133).

"Ivy Day in thewas also unusually low due to families' inability to afford it. Children dropped out of school early in order to work the little jobs there were (Hill). Unemployment was quite high and subsequently, labor conditions were quite poor. Ireland's economic problems can be attributed to their population nearly doubling during the first half of the century and their inability to transport (export) goods due to a lack of railroads.

Irish Economy in Dubliners

In Dubliners, you see as people struggle with money and their standards of living. This is very much like the true Dublin citizens during this time era. Dublin was a very poor city and the conditions were very bad. According to “Irish Question: the housing conditions were the worst of the cities in Europe. The average number


of rooms was one and a half per family. These extremely high living conditions created very dirty areas of the city, which was the main cause of the High death rate shown in Dirty Dublin (O’ Brien p.21).
An example of the lifestyles that most Dubliners sought is depicted in "After the Race". Joyce tells the story of a few friends who are living lavishly Ireland. They play cards, sail on big boats, and drive fast cars. Though they are each from different backgrounds, (American, French, Canadian) they are all bounded by one thing: wealth (Joyce 35-42).

Geographical Locations

Imagine walking down the streets, pass buildings, churches, bridges, and all the squares throughout all of Dublin in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century. If you can't imagine this Joycedoes an excellent job of showing these places throughout his stories. Each short story is full of locations in which the main characters are shown going through these locations. Streets are by far the most prevalent area, which are mentioned throughout the stories. Each place also has played an important part in the history and culture of Dublin. Joyce states in the introduction of his notes that he used, "I have accepted Gifford's division of the city into four quadrants which allows directions and locations to be given in relation to points of the compass" (Joyce p.237). This quote shows that Joyce was giving a lot of consideration to being geographically correct on where he said places were. In doing so he paints a picture of the map


of Dublin at this time period.

Streets, Churches, Buildings, and Parts of the City

During "The Sisters" the first main street mentioned, is Great Britain Street. In the book A Traveler’s Companion it tells that nowadays there is no such street because it was renamed after Charles Stewart Parnell who was an Irish statesman. Because of this Great Britain Street was renamed as Parnell Street, and can be found in the North Central part of Dublin. Great Britain Street or Parnell Street at this point in time was inhabited by the poor and was known as more or less the slums of the town (Pakenham p.44). Another such street is that of Gardiner Street.This street can be found on the north side going from LowerDorset Street to The Custom House. It is between Parnell Street and The Custom House. In the book Dublin Old and New, the author states that the street was named after Luke Gardiner, "who was the chief designer and layer-out of all this quarter"(Gwynn p.63).

Present day Parnell Street

George's Church of Ireland

("Ireland from a Polish persective")

In addition, another such street is that of Grafton Street which is found in "After the Race". It used to border the notorious north side slums, which were fine house abandoned to the poor. Grafton Street at this time though was a much more desirable and upper-class street (Parkenham p.200). These houses as time went on were to become department stores and then office buildings in the future. Grafton Street has had its fair


share of events happen in it. For example, In A Traveler’s Companion John Joly retells his story of seeing the Irish rebels take over the city, " A sort of barrier had been placed within the large gate facing the foot of Grafton Street. Behind it stood, with set face and in Sinn Fein uniform, an armed man" (Parkenham p.282). Another such street would be Earl Street, which is mentioned in "Two Gallants". At this time period this area was known as the red-light district, which as defined as the sign of a brothel or area where prostituion takes place in.

Throughout history Churches have played a major role in the society of the country and of life. In Dublin two such churches were St. Catherine's and George's Church,St. Catherine's is a prominent Catholic Church with a rich history from the start of Dublin. On the other hand George's Church is a Protestant Church, which was part of the Church of Ireland. In a Traveler's Guide it talks about how Reverend James Whitelaw was the rector of St. Catherine's Church and ended up dying due to catching a fever from his parishioners who were mostly the poor. This could be understood as saying he got sick because of his dirty and poor parishioners which shows that the church was in a poor area (Pakenham p.100).

In addition, there are many buildings, which play a big role in Dublin, one of which is the Pigeon House. The Pigeon House, which can be found according to A Traveler's Guide,


"about 3 miles from Dublin and 1 from the landing place, is the customary landing place of passengers from the packets..." (Pakenham p.256). Also the Pigeon House at this time was where Dublin got most of its electricity. As is stated by Gilligan, "The site had been sold to Dublin Corporation in 1897. So if this story is set at roughly the same time as "The Sisters", then the Pigeon House in "An Encounter" must be reckoned the military dock it was at the date of sale"(Gilligan p42).

Lastly, two areas, which are Kingstown and Irishtown. In Lewis' Dublin it gives a picture of what Kingstown looked like, " a seaport and market town...This town, which is situated on the southern shore of the bay of Dublin" (Ryan p.197).It also goes on to say how it was mostly a Protestant town, but was very English like due to George the IV leaving from this port in 1821 (Ryan p.197-202). Irishtown is explained in Lewis' Dublin as the southern portion of Ringsend and is in "less ruinous condition" (Ryan p233-234).

James Joyce created a great description of Great Britain Street and the house in which Father Flynn had lived and died. Joyce writes of what the building on the street was like, " It was an unassuming shop, registered under the vague name of Drapery. The drapery consisted mainly of children's bootees and umbrellas and on ordinary days a notice used to hand in the window, saying Umbrellas Recovered" (Joyce p.3).


and took his friend there before going out to dine with Segouin. (Joyce p.38) The final street was that of Earl Street, which was mentioned in “Two Gallants” as the road where Corley remembered a past lady, he had "dated". He said, "She's on the turf now. I saw her driving down Earl Street one night with two fellows with her on a car" (Joyce p. 47). Joyce shows a description of Earl Street as a place where prostitution and other unlawful acts took place. It fits in great with the historical information of the street as being the red light district (Joyce p.45-47).

In addition, Joyce does a great job once again in incorporating these real places into his stories. St. Catherine's Church is mentioned in "The Sisters"as the Church in which Rev. Flynn used to preach at. In the story the priest is told as being head of this Catholic Church in his early days, which matches up, with the description of the real Church today. In addition, George's Church, which comes into the picture during the “Boarding House” on a Sunday morning, is described as, "sent out constant peals and worshippers, singly or in groups..." (Joyce p.58). In the notes in the back of the book it tells of how it was a known Protestant Church, which matches up with its actual history also. Next, the Pigeon House which is the place where the boys planned to go on their adventure during "An Encounter". They don't give a real description of what it


is, but an idea can be drawn due to the fact that they have to get off a ferry in order to reach it. In reality the same thing has to be done and it can't just be by mistake that they are both described as the same thing. The last two areas are Kingstown and Irishtown, the first of which is mentioned in "After the Race". In it Joyce tells of how it was mostly a Protestant town, which had a harbor, this matches up with the description of the actual area. Lastly, Irishtown comes up in “The Sisters” as the place where Rev. Flynn was born and had wanted to take a trip to. In the story Eliza tells that they wanted to go this summeraccurate view of the area. The way in which religion had a very dominant influence over the country can not only be shown in history, but also in Joyce's explanation. As for the political aspects you have seen that 1880-1914 was full of turmoil between the two sides. The economy in Dublin was just starting off in a sense but was still very week. This is clearly shown by Joyce in his deception of the poverty in his book. Finally, Joyce's use of the streets and locations creates a map of the city for the reader. Overall, the aspects of the story Dubliners agrees with the time period in Dublin, which depicts religious, political, economical and geographical locations.

Here is an example of present day Dublin with areas listed


574 Reginhild

Reginhild (minor planet designation: 574 Reginhild) is a minor planet orbiting the Sun that was discovered by German astronomer Max Wolf on September 19, 1905.

Photometric observations of this asteroid at the Organ Mesa Observatory in Las Cruces, New Mexico during 2010 gave a light curve with a period of 14.339 ± 0.001 hours and a brightness variation of 0.17 ± 0.02 in magnitude. The light curve shows three uneven minimums and maximums per rotation cycle.

19050919MV St Helen

MV St Helen was a vehicle and passenger ferry operated by Wightlink on its route from Portsmouth to Fishbourne on the Isle of Wight. Due to her age, she was sold and was removed from service on 26 March 2015. She now operates in Sardinia with the name Anna Mur, operated by Delcomar, together with her sister ship GB Conte, the former .

History
St Helen was built by Robb Caledon Shipbuilders; the last ship to be launched from their Leith Shipyard. She entered service with Sealink on 28 November 1983 shortly after her sister St Catherine, She was positioned on the Portsmouth to Fishbourne route, the route she has taken through her life and was the largest Isle of Wight ferry until 1990 when  was introduced


2000-2002 tax payments and filings. It was a particular eventa breach of contract occurring on June 29, 2001(and *1265 certainly not unrelated events from years earlier (1991-1996) that the government's brief so heavily focuses on while ignoring the relevant event) which was the legal cause of the penalties now at issue.
6. I made specific provision for timely payment of the balance of my 2000 taxes and other obligations due in 2001 and/or 2002 through a contract dated February 20, 2001, for the sale of my home in Evanston, Illinois, where I then lived. The contract was entered into prior to the April 15 original due date of my 2000 tax return. The sale was to close no later than July 14, 2001. My 2000 tax return was notdue until at least August 15, 2001 (and an additional extension until October 15, 2001 was also available), so a closing by July 14, 2001, would have allowed me ample time to file and pay my 2000 taxes on a timely basis. The proceeds of a closing on July 14, 2001, would have resulted in freeingup of home equity approaching $300,000, which was far more than my then-pending 2000 tax liability and sufficient to provide for my 2001 tax liability (which was not due until April 2002), and also freed assets for payment of 2002 taxes.
Schroer Decl. [Doc. 94] at ¶¶ 4-6.
In addition, Mr. Schroer relies on the downturn in his salary to support his claim of reasonable cause. In 1996 he joined the law firm of Fitch,


At that time, out of desperation, my wife and I finally decided that the circumstance in Colorado was beginning to significantly damage our family's quality of *1266 life, and we arranged for moving of the contents of our Illinois house to Colorado. When the moving van arrived, because the Colorado house was much smaller than the Illinois house, the garage was literally stacked with furniture and boxes from floor to ceiling, and the financial records were not reasonably accessible or organized. For practical purposes, the records needed to prepare my 2000 tax return remained unavailable until the summer of 2002. In any event, filing of a return appeared a futile, useless exercise to me, since until the closing of the Illinois house in June 2002, I simply hadin the 1980's, I was given advances during a calendar year approximately 60% of my total income from the prior year. The balance would then be paid in a lump sum after yearend. This arrangement meant that in-year cash flow was substantially smaller than year-end income was expected to be. Thus, paying quarterly estimated taxes would substantially disrupt and reduce in-year cash flow out of proportion to the expected total income, the bulk of which was not expected actually to be received until January of the next year.
64. One means of raising funds in-year to make estimated tax payments was by borrowing. However, interest rates at that time for lines of credit for such purposes were expensive, commonly 8-10% or substantially more in some periods as I recall.
65.


In the mid-1980's, I had discussions with a number of people, including colleagues and other professionals about a prudent way to deal with payment of estimated taxes. Among the people whom I remember discussing this subject with in the mid-1980's was Mitch Goldstein, then a prominent tax partner at Faegre & Benson in Minneapolis, and Nate Bergeland, then a certified financial planner also in the Minneapolis area. I came to understand that many professionals considered it financially prudent not to make estimated quarterly tax payments during the year, but rather to make larger, lump sum payments at year-end to cover yearly taxes. It was considered prudent to do so because the penalties under the tax code for underestimating quarterly payments were relatively low, and that a taxpayer couldmade the conscious decision to put his personal financial interests ahead of his obligation to pay his federal income taxes. He could have borrowed money to pay his taxes when due, pending final distribution of his earned income. Or he could have saved money from current earnings or from a previous year so as to have a reserve to pay his taxes as they came due. He chose instead generally not to pay estimated taxes when due, and to face a large year-end tax bill, including estimated tax penalties, so as not to "disrupt and reduce in-year cash flow" and to use his money to invest in retirement accounts that earned high rates of return. Under these circumstances, it cannot be said that Mr. Schroer was without fault


National Research Council, which is one of the four divisions of the National Academies (the other three are the National Academy of Science, National Academy of Engineering, and Institute of Medicine).

The survey was divided into five sub-disciplines. The Inner Planets Panel dealt with Mercury, Venus, and Earth's Moon; Mars had a panel of its own. The Giant Planets Panel covered the four outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, while the Satellites Panel looked at the numerous moons of the outer planets. All the other smaller bodies that orbit around the Sun, such as the asteroids, comets, and Kuiper belt objects were covered by the Primitive Bodies Panel.

We started working on the survey in the summer of 2009, and the first step was to gather input from theentire planetary science community, which came in the form of white papers. In the end, we received 199 papers with a total of 1,669 authors. As of October 2010, Planetary Science Division of the American Astronomy Society had about 1,415 members, so the survey gathered voices from a majority of planetary scientists in the US and abroad. It was an extremely active process and many of us participated in multiple white papers—I was an author on six of them. The white papers spelled out the scientific priorities, requisite technological developments, and mission plans to be considered by the survey.

Each of these five disciplines had equal weight in crafting the final recommendations, and contributed a chapter for the final report, which underwent rigorous peer review. The chapters were compiled


a similar mission, but it is designed to analyze the samples on board without bringing them back to Earth.

Waiting for a new start

The second priority, the Jupiter Europa Orbiter, also has an astrobiology emphasis—it will employ ice-penetrating radar to peer through the moon's surface ice and measure its thickness. There is now a strong evidence that the moon has a deep saline ocean underneath the surface ice, which may harbor living organisms.

This mission concept has a long history, which has already been covered in depth. It was recommended as the single highest Flagship priority by the last decadal survey, and NASA and ESA made an agreement two years ago to work together to develop a joint mission. The plan calls for NASA and ESA to separately send theirmade the decision to accept the money.

From a professional ethics perspective, it makes no difference which of them made the decision. The fact is their relationship became a matter of legitimate public interest once it was revealed it led to the expenditure of public money in finding Campion a government job outside Joyce’s office, given her presence inside it had become untenable because of their affair.

Several other factors added to the legitimate public interest in the matter, because in the end they brought about his resignation as deputy prime minister:

his poor judgement in allowing the relationship with Campion to develop as it did while she remained on his staff;

his prevarication on the question of whether she was actually his partner at various relevant times;

his deplorable public airing of

Italian patent application VR93A000012, filed Feb. 18, 1993 in the name of the same Applicant, discloses a process and an apparatus for casting in an inert atmosphere which uses a crucible placed adjacent to a casting cylinder which contains refractory material with an impression: the crucible and the cylinder are located within a sealed casting chamber. The casting chamber can be tilted to cast the molten metal into the crucible by gravity. The ambient air contained by the crucible section and by the cylinder section is aspiratedby means of a pneumatic circuit connected to a vacuum pump. After producing a certain degree of vacuum, the aspiration circuit is disconnected and inert gas is introduced from the crucible section. The gas then passes through the chamber that contains the crucible and the casting chamber and the related impressions, performing an effective flushing action. After casting, inert gas is introduced at a relatively high pressure into the chamber that contains the crucible in order to inject, by pressure, the molten metal into the casting cylinder. The aspiration circuit is then disconnected from the casting chamber section as well, the unit is opened and the casting cylinder is removed from the muffle.
Such a solution according to the above mentioned patent application, while being a considerable improvement over


budget approved by the Legislature, which says student "participation" is to be defined the same for district online programs as for cyber schools.

State law requires public schools of all types to provide a student at least 1,098 hours of scheduled instruction each year in order to get the designated foundation allowance funding on behalf of that student. The foundation allowance, the bulk of state money a school receives, is determined by the number of students physically present or active at a school on two “count days,” one in October and another in February.

The first rule says cyber schools "cannot enroll a pupil if, at the time of enrollment, less than 1,098 hours remain in the cyber school's schedule." In other words, cyber schools can only receive funding onbehalf of students who enrolled very shortly after the school year begins.

But schools like Success VLC often take in new students who transfer midyear from a different school. It's bad enough that the law puts so much weight on a fall count day (it determines 90 percent of a school’s student tally), which means that most of the funding doesn’t follow these midyear transfers. But worse, under this new interpretation of the law, a student could enroll in a cyber school in time to be included on count day but still not generate any new funding for it.

The second rule is even more unreasonable. For the first time, the department says that cyber schools must log a full 1,098 hours of a student's activity online, tracked by the

The world of genre movies can be an insular one, with low budgets and distribution difficulties that hinder even well-regarded projects. But what might seem like constraints to another filmmaker are for director Mattie Do a world of possibility. When Do, who is from Laos, premiered her horror movie *Dearest Sister *at Austin's Fantastic Fest in September, it was her home country's 13th film—not of 2016, but ever.

Laos has operated under a strict Communist government since the 1970s, and non-propaganda filmmaking only started there in the last decade. That makes Do, who was born in Los Angeles to Lao parents and moved to Vientiane in 2010, not just one of a small handful of filmmakers in the country, but the only horror director—and the only woman. She's responsibleits Fantastic Fest debut, *Dearest Sister *has spread to festivals across the globe. It was selected as the opening-night feature for October's inaugural Brooklyn Horror Fest, and screenings have popped up in Europe, Asia, and South America.

The movie follows Ana and Nok, two cousins on opposite ends of Laos' class structure. When Ana starts to go blind, her husband sends for Nok, who leaves her family in rural poverty and goes to the city to care for Ana, hoping to earn some money for her struggling relatives in return. But as Ana's condition worsens, she seems to be having visions—and only Nok is around to interpret the numeric messages that will dramatically change their relationship.

The Burundian crisis as described by the United Nations and a report delivered to the United Security Council on the 23rd February 2017. This is the most recent compiled report on the situation of safety, human rights and peaceful work in the East African republic. Where the President Pierre Nkurunziza, decided to run for a third term, even as the constitution after the Arusha Peace Agreement, was set to be possible to have two terms.

So we are in March 2017, as the crisis has been going on since 2015. The Burundian government have continued to assassinated, detained and intimidated their population, as much they have also created a political climate where the Nkurunziza regime is hostile to foreign interference, as well as the toil of the crisis, alsotorture and enforced disappearance, along with the discovery of bodies, continue to be reported” (…) “The Imbonerakure reportedly also routinely participate in joint operations with the police and intelligence services and are reported to have been implicated in numerous cases of arbitrary arres t and disappearance, ill-treatment, killings and some cases of sexual violence” (UNSC, P: 5, 2017).

Burundian and Rwandan Relations:

“Relations between Burundi and Rwanda remain tense. Throughout the reporting period, isolated border incidents, as well as trade and movement restrictions, were witnessed.

The number of internally displaced persons is estimated at 170,000, while the number of spontaneous returnees identified so far in some targeted provinces is approximately 37,000. The monthly rate of arrival of refugees in Neighbouring countries from August to October 2016 doubled from previous months, and the increasing trend was confirmed in the first weeks of 2017. As of early February 2017, the number of Burundians who had fled the country since April 2015 stood at 387,000” (UNSC, P: 10, 2017).

The conditions for the bail was set for that he has to report to the Kampala Central Police Station, do this twice a month and register that cost $6,000, leaving behind his passport and not allowed to travel without permission. The issue for giving Kifefe bail was that the Government of Uganda feared the smear and loses appeal with the donor nations. Next date that is set for PRA suspects is set for July 16.2007 (WikiLeaks, 2007).

Corruption cases:

Immunization Corruption Case:

In January of 2006 the President Museveni requested that the


Inspector General of Government (IGG) to investigate the former Minister of Health Jim Muhwezi. This was because of the alleged scheming money from the vaccine program of Global Alliance for Vaccine and Immunization (GAVI). The funds for this program were instead spent on SIPIDIS – Constitutional Referendum and National Resistance Movement. President Museveni asked First Deputy Prime Minister Eriya Kategaya on how much of these funds we’re used for campaigning in 2005-2006. While the President pushed for IGG to investigate the Fund. Janet Museveni tried to stop this and support Jim Muhwezi. In April of 2007 the Justice Faith Mwondha that the former Health Ministery and other government officials had misused the GAVI funds. These persons were Jim Muhwezi, Mike Muluka, Alex Kamugisha and also the first ladynot something the Ugandan public expected since she had been a part of the household of Museveni. Kaboyo claimed that she did this on verbal agreement with the President. Muhwezi was away when the arrest order came, but he turned to the police in 28th May 2007 from there he was sent to Luzira prison. Mukula and Kamugisha were granted bail on the 25th May 2007. The issue with this case was that the party of people took more money than where authorized to do and didn’t prove what they used that money for. Muhewezi is now seen as “not political responsible”. The Cabinet wanted just to “clip his wings” because they could be implicated by the case. This is something the President Museveni accepted (WikiLeaks, 2009).

Wakiso By-Elections:

4th


November 2008 there was held by-election to fill the seat of the Kyaddondo North of the Wakiso District. “NRM candidate and son of Kibirige, Robert Kibirige Kasule, won the tightly contested race with 8,183 votes – just 60 more than DP candidate Regine Bakittee. Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) candidate Pallyne Nakabuye finished a distant third with 1,900 votes” (…) “Allegations of electoral malpractice, including ballot stuffing, bribery, multiple voting, and violence were widespread. In one confirmed incident, a polling station’s presiding officer and other officials were found at the site before the polls opened with a number of pre-marked ballots already in the box. The police and Electoral Commission Returning Officer were called in and the presiding officer was later arrested and the ballot box confiscated” (…)accuse the EC of placing 500,000 to one million pro-opposition “ghost” voters on the voter registry to force the NRM’s Presidential candidate into a second round election run off in 2011. The report singles out EC Secretary Sam Rwakoojo, Legal Council Alfred Okello Oryem, and a handful of mid-level officials for corruption, fraud and conflict of interest, and recommends firing Rwakoojo “forthwith as he as done the most to damage (the) NRM.” (WikiLeaks, 2009).

NRM-Membership program:

“The NRM membership campaign probably also serves to strengthen Museveni and Mbabazi’s power within the party. NRM leaders are likely looking to prevent an embarrassing repeat of the 2006 legislative election when 37 NRM members, frustrated by the lack of internal democracy within the party, defeated hand-picked NRM candidates by running for parliament as


political independents. With the registration campaign, party members could be identified earlier and threatened with permanent alienation from the NRM if they bolted to seek election as independents. Mbabazi may also use his control of the registration campaign to boost his own embattled position within the party by withholding registration to those in the NRM who do not support him. Mbabazi’s position as Secretary General is up for re-election in late-2010, and he will likely face stiff competition for the NRM’s contested top spot” (WikiLeaks, 2009).

The day before riots:

“The government closed five radio stations on September 11th two CBS stations plus Suubi FM, Radio Sapientia, and Radio Two Akaboozi Kubiri – for violating Uganda’s Electronic Media act. At least two other stations – Radio Simba and WBS TV– have been warned to censor their reporting or risk closure” (…)“On September 11, well known Radio One talk show host Robert Kalundi Sserumaga was abducted by unidentified assailants riding in an unmarked sedan as he left the WBS studio. He was later dumped in front of a police station and arrested” (WikiLeaks, 2009).

Riots in Kampala:

“Rioting in Kampala subsided on September 12 after the King of Buganda postponed his visit to the disputed district of Kayunga” (…) “There was sporadic gunfire during the morning of September 12 on the outskirts of Kampala, as well as road closures and checkpoints near the city center amidst a heavy police presence. Several police posts and dozens of vehicles were burnt during the riots. One reportedly Asian-owned paint factory was also torched”


then before therefore it’s a shock that they torture the people they are arresting. IGP Gen Kale Kayihura on the 17th October he had to change the Rapid Response Unit(RRU) in the Police after claims of torture of alleged corruption case against the Executive Director of UNFA (Uganda National Forestry Authority) and his wife where the RRU is suspected of detaining them for a week and threathen to torture them. The RRU director David Magara was because of this moved from his position into a leadership role in the CID (Criminal Investigation Directorat). In Hoima the mayor who is a part of the FDC Atugonza is in proceedings against the state for a torture case where he was attacked by JATT (Joint Anti-Terrorist Team) in April 2009. Thiswas a closed session from the public. The Mayor of Hoima claimed in court that he was sent to a “safe house” and tortured there by the CMI (Chieftaincy of Military Intelligence). Because of this Dr. Kizza Besigye has said that he would make litigation against Minister of Security Amama Mbabazi for the treatment of Atugonza by security agencies he controls (WikiLeaks, 2009).

New Districts in 2009:

“On November 11, Minister of Lands Adolf Mwesige asked Parliament to approve the creation of seven new administrative districts on top of the 14 districts already slated for creation in 2009 and 2010. If approved, this will bring the total number of administrative districts to 101, or three times the 33 districts existing when Museveni took power in 1986” (…) “According to the


on corruption. Many political contacts and other Western diplomats are wondering if Museveni has a clear game plan, desired outcome, or defined roles for the IGG and public prosecutors” (WikiLeaks, 29.05.2007).

Ugandan Boarder Tension:

“Museveni and his Congolese counterpart Joseph Kabila met in Tanzania to discuss border issues after Congolese military units moved a border demarcation four kilometers into an agreed-upon no-man’s zone on the Ugandan border” (…)”Lt. Gen. David Tinyefuza, Museveni’s security czar, reported to Museveni that Congolese units allegedly erected a border crossing four kilometers on the Ugandan side of the border. However, a team of security officials led by Deputy Director of the External Security Service Emmy Allio, who is from West Nile, determined that the Congolese had not moved the demarcation posts into Uganda, only intoof the 14 parliamentary seats from the four districts that make up the Bunyoro Kingdom. Although Banyoro appear to be the largest ethnic group in these districts, they do not hold a majority. Restricting elected offices to only ethnic Banyoro would therefore disenfranchise a majority of the population resident in these districts” (Sampson/WikiLeaks, 19.08. 2009)

“Captain” Mike Mukula, disgraced former Ugandan Health Minister and current National Resistance Movement (NRM) vice-chairman for eastern Uganda, warned that the 2011 presidential elections will be worse than the deeply flawed 2006 presidential contest. Mukula, whose political reputation was battered by the 2006 Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI) scandal, said the September 10-12 riots provided a brief preview of one potential election scenario. He also said President Museveni’s popularity was decreasing within


the NRM, and speculated that Museveni may be interested in setting up his son, Muhoozi, as dauphin.

Describing himself as Museveni’s “fall guy,” Mukula blamed his involvement in the GAVI scandal on Museveni’s need to placate international donors concerned about corruption, and his own rising popularity as evidenced by a newspaper poll that listed Mukula asmoves made by Museveni – from pandering to ethnic Banyoro along Lake Albert (ref. A), to the recognition of the Rwenzururu Kingdom in southwestern Uganda and the decision to support the minority Banyala’s quest for autonomy from the Buganda Kingdom (ref. B) – were all designed to obtain the two percentage points needed to push Museveni from 49 to 51 percent during the first round of voting in 2011” (…)”Mukula said Museveni was increasingly patterning himself after Robert Mugabe and wants to position his son, Lieutenant Colonel Muhoozi Kainerugaba Museveni, as his eventual successor.

Romans-sur-Isère: France launches terror probe after knife attack Published duration 5 April

image copyright AFP image caption Police suspect there may have been a terrorist motive behind the attack in Romans-sur-Isère

French police have launched a terrorism investigation after two people were killed and five wounded in a knife attack in south-east France.

The attacker entered a tobacconist shop in Romans-sur-Isère, near Grenoble, and stabbed the owners and a customer.

He then attacked more people at two other shops before being arrested.

Prosecutors said the suspect was a Sudanese refugee in his 30s who lived in the town. Two other people have also been arrested, police said.

At the time of his arrest on Saturday, the man was "found on his knees on the pavement praying in Arabic", prosecutors said.

David Olivier Reverdy, of theNational Police Alliance union, said the man had asked police to kill him.

Counter-terrorism prosecutors said they had launched an investigation into "murder linked to a terrorist enterprise".

The suspect was not previously known to the police or intelligence services, news website France Bleu reported.

On a visit to the town, Interior Minister Christophe Castaner said: "This morning, a man embarked on a terrorist journey."

Town mayor Marie-Helene Thoraval told AFP news agency that after leaving the tobacconist, the suspect went to a butcher's shop where he grabbed another knife before attacking people queuing outside a bakery.

The butcher's shop owner, Ludovic Breyton, said: "He took a knife, jumped over the counter, and stabbed a customer, then ran away.

Mr Macron promised that "light will be shed" on the crime.

Ronan Keating was told he couldn't sing

Ronan Keating was told by a producer he couldn't sing in the early part of his career.

The 'When You Say Nothing At All' hitmaker - who has enjoyed huge success with Boyzone and as a solo artist - worked hard to "prove" the producer was wrong.

He said: "[My music career started with] getting cigarettes and bottles of beer thrown at us ...

"A producer kept saying, 'The blond one can't sing - get rid of him,' and I knew I could be dropped in a heartbeat. I had to prove them wrong."

And Ronan now wants to turn his hand to acting but admits it was tough at first to dispel any myths about him as he was in a boy band.

He added: "I'm


Welcome to the IAF Northwest!

The IAF Northwest is a regional network of broad-based community alliances in Washington, Oregon, Canada and Australia. Each alliance’s goals are to build individual civic leadership, strengthen its member organizations, and to serve as a vehicle for these members to act in the public arena with sufficient power for the common good.

The IAF Northwest is part of the larger Industrial Areas Foundation which has affiliates in 19 additional states, the United Kingdom and Germany. Started in 1940, the IAF is the oldest and most widely recognized network of its kind. The IAF Northwest consists of eight established local Alliances and four start-up Alliances.

Each of the Alliances is a broad-based organization made up of a diverse group of resourceful, passionate everyday people—united through their religious,education, labor and community organizations.

The Alliances create opportunities for these people to connect and act powerfully and creatively as leaders - to bring about practical solutions to the challenges facing their families and communities. The IAF Northwest is nonideological and strictly nonpartisan, but proudly, publicly, and persistently political.

CURRENT CAMPAIGNS

Clinic Based Organizing

The Clinic Based Organizing Initiative builds on the historical roots of community health centers, in which the clinic collective - providers and patients together - worked to address fundamental injustices in the community by exercising "power with". The initiative’s goal is to demonstrate the effectiveness of organizing efforts today in addressing the "social determinants of health" by surfacing and equipping patient leaders in communities highly impacted by health, income, and race-based disparities to act together on their own


behalves to address issues at the root of those injustices.

Physical Education (PE) Campaign

The American Heart Association recommends children receive 150 minutes per week of physical education in elementary school - benefiting health, academics, and student behavior. Some Washington schools, especially in communities highly impacted by health, income, and race-based disparities, have been failing to provide even the low current state standard of 100 minutes of PE per week. This campaign is focusing on getting schools in the state's largest district - Seattle - to meet the state PE standard across the board, starting with those schools most impacted by health disparities.

NEWS:

February, 2015 -- On February 3, over 50 people from 16 institutions gathered to review the results of a capacity building campaign that had, over the past month,gathered stories from over 350 people from a diverse range of institutions including 6 Seattle schools, unions, churches, the Health Equity Circle, and Casa Latina. Guided by table discussions, the group discerned three areas to focus further research and action:

February, 2015 -- At the last Metro Organizing Team meeting, MACG member institutions decided to embark on a listening “campaign”.
The goal is for MACG leaders to listen to each other within their institutions, to generate stories and take note of issues that we share commonly in our community.

February, 2015 -- In the first win for Sound Alliance homelessness work, 275 leaders and allies made a proposal to Federal Way Mayor Jim Ferrell to work together to develop a day shelter-hygiene center benefiting homeless people at an assembly on November


11, 2014 at member institution St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church. The Mayor agreed to work with the Sound Alliance and to find more partners to make the project a reality.

January, 2015 -- MACG has a new Latino Organizer! Paul Riek is bilingual/bicultural community organizer with many years' experience working with marginalized Latino communities. He is a member of MACG member St. Andrew Catholic Church.

January, 2015 -- Sound Alliance leaders are carrying out a series “house meetings” to surface new leaders, form stronger relationships, and better understand the pressures that are affecting our community. The campaigns will culminate in a Discernment Assembly on February 3 where Sound Alliance leaders will prioritize the issue areas that will engage the most new leaders and have the biggest positive impact onHorsefeathers!™ is a cute satirical comic strip that is a politically-oriented.

Scene 25: The Battle of Naboo

The sky is the most perfect blue that a sky can be, speckled with the fluffiest of cotton clouds. The grass waves with shifting shades of green, flashing pink and golden flowers in the afternoon breeze. It's a surreal contrast for Anakin, who feels like he's walking into a child's picture book to face his doom. For the amphibious army trudging behind him, it's downright miserable.

"Yous betta be hopin da Choosin One tinkin good," says Tarpals, annoyed that on this greatest of all days for the Gungans he should be left in the back to babysit. "Yousa sniffin kadoodoo witoutim, Sahjint!"

The army is on a flat plain, making their way toward a gradually sloping ridge. Boss Nass and Anakin take the lead onThe noise is deafening. The kaadu buck, and Nass and Anakin leap from their mounts and let them retreat. The shields hold.

"Steady! Steady!" Anakin shouts to his warriors as the last of the barrage echoes away. "Activate personal defenses!"

The warriors press buttons on their gauntlets, and long personal shields of pure energy snap into existence in front of them. Jar-Jar fumbles with his, bashing his wrist against the ground to try and make it work until Tarpals activates it for him.

"Here they come!"

Over the ridge rolls a pack of nearly a hundred droideka. The shell of the Gungan army's outer shield wobbles as they penetrate through it. Once inside, each ball sprouts three legs and its own shield, letting forth a volley of blaster fire. Most of the


blaster shots bounce off the Gungan personal shields, but a few Gungans begin to fall. The Gungans return fire with their boomers, small ones thrown by sling and large ones thrown by catapult, but the boomers smash harmlessly against the droideka defenses as they continue to advance.

Anakin and Nass retreat slightly to stay out of the direct line of fire. Nass begins to run among the troops, issuing commands to keep them organized and direct their attack. Anakin, however, is dazed and bewildered, watching the front lines clash. The droideka are plowing his army under faster than he could imagine, and a knot forms in his stomach.

He raises a hand tentatively toward a droideka and pushes it back with the Force, but the droideka simply snaps into aball and rolls back to where it was. He uses his shield to deflect blaster fire from a second droideka, and uses the Force to send it hurtling toward the first, but they simply bounce off each other.

"C'mon, don't panic," he thinks to himself. "All these Force powers, there's gotta be something I can do to stop these things!"

Another droideka directs its fire at him, and he reaches out and grabs it with the Force. He holds the spinning ball hovering over the ground. He shuts his eyes, and tries to block out the chaos surrounding him, focusing all his attention into a squeeze.

KERCHUNK! The droideka collapses into a twisted hunk of scrap metal and falls harmlessly to the ground.

Anakin looks at his hand with awe.

the racks unfold and drop thousands of metal cubes into formation. The cubes transform themselves into spindly humanoid battle droids, flimsy but difficult to target, each bearing a powerful blaster. All at once, the droid army begins its perfectly synchronized march toward the Gungans.

Accordingly, in the case of the forward pump scheme, the signal lights are amplified as the power of the pump lights is large near at the entry terminal, and the signal lights are decreased as the signal lights approach the emitting terminal (receiving terminal) as shown in FIG. 9A. Conversely, in the case of the backward pump scheme, the Raman amplification gain is almost zero as the power of the pump lights is small near at the entry terminal of the signal lights, and the signal lights are amplified due to the large power of the pump lights as the


Moreover, it is assumed that the center wavelengths of the first signal light S01 and the second signal light S02 lie in Raman gain-bandwidths uniquely defined according to each pump wavelength of the first Raman pump light P01 and the second Raman pump light P02.
The Raman amplification effect for the first Raman pump light P01 over a short distance step on the optical-fiber transmission-line 100 is shown by the following equations (1) to (3). In these equations, S01: the first signal light, S02: the second signal light, P01: the first Raman pump light, P02: the second Raman pump light, gR: a Raman gain coefficient, ωs01: the center frequency of the first signal light, ωS02: the center frequency of the second signal light, ωP01 the center frequency of thesignal light S02 in the vicinity of the output terminal of combined lights of the optical combining and branching filter 101, where the first Raman pump light P01 is injected into the optical-fiber transmission-line 100. Accordingly, the power of the first Raman pump light P01 for amplifying the second signal light S02 is lost, and it becomes impossible to obtain desired receiving characteristics for the second signal light S02.
Similarly, the power of the Raman pump light is greatly consumed by amplifying the second signal light S02 transmitted in the second transmission direction D2 with regard to the second Raman pump light P02 originally to amplify the first signal light S01, as the power strength of the second signal light S02 is stronger than that of the first signal

The Western Association of Women Historians (WAWH) was organized in 1969 to meet the diverse needs of women historians in the Western United States. First known as the West Coast Association of Women Historians, the organization brought together women historians in colleges and universities to share scholarship and develop professional networking. In 1980 the organization’s name was changed to the Western Association of Women Historians. Over a period of 40 years the organization has grown to include a membership of over 400 historians. During this time WAWH enabled women to share ideas and experiences which not only redirected scholarship but also changed the course of women historians. Women historians responded to the equal rights and women’s liberation movement at the national and local levels to elevate the


status of women faculty members on campuses.

Annual conferences include scholarly panels and papers on diverse historical fields which are a major source of information sharing. Executive and Business meetings provide opportunities for organizational input from members. Annual prizes for books/monographs, articles and dissertations by the membership stimulate competition and participation in the historical process. A goal of WAWH is to integrate the study of women into mainstream history. A WAWH task force strives to do this in two ways: first, by including the history of women within the profession; and second, by pressuring textbook publishers and public schools to integrate women’s history into the larger historical context.

Scope and Contents note

Over a forty year period, WAWH has amassed a collection of minutes of Executive and Business meetings, written andelectronic communications of the Executive Committee members, communications of Award and Prize Committee members, program reports, programs of Annual Conferences, newsletters, and artifacts related to the organizations. Given the duration of the organization’s history some communications are missing.
