I somehow ended up with my father's second wife's wedding ring. Although it could actually be his third wife's wedding ring. All I know for sure is that the delicate, hand-crafted gold ring was among Dad's possessions when he died. Sorting through his things, I recognized it. Kind of. I knew it was a wedding ring. I just didn't know whose.
Dad's marital saga, through no fault of his own, was quite an odyssey. After our mother, his first wife, died of cancer, he married Enid, who also, eventually, died of cancer. Then he went steady with Evelyn, but ended up marrying Madalyn, who left him after he had a seizure (So much for "in sickness or in health…") After another interlude with Evelyn, Dad ended up spending the last 14 years of his life, happily unmarried, with Anita.
My sister and I decided that, even though she'd left Dad, Madalyn would probably have kept her wedding ring. If she'd returned it, it was unlikely that our father would have hung onto this reminder of a failed marriage. So we were pretty sure this was Enid's ring.
Enid, dad's second wife didn't like us. We didn't like her either. So it was odd and a little unsettling that her ring ended up in our hands. We were there when Dad first slipped it on her finger. My sister and I had flown to Detroit from Philadelphia for the occasion. They were married in a brief ceremony by a really cool, locally famous, gay atheist Rabbi. It was a good marriage, but Enid was a rotten stepmother. She adored my father and hated having to share him with his daughters. Her attitude toward us was, to put it mildly, adversarial. My sister and I were forever grateful she'd come into Dad's life after we were grown and out of the house. Otherwise, it would have been Cinderella city.
Enid died after a long battle with the same kind of cancer that took our mother. I learned of her death while on vacation in Bali. (I didn't fly home for the funeral.) Enid apparently wasn't buried with the ring on her finger, and Dad's love for her went on, because our usually unsentimental father stored the ring in his office safe through several moves, another wife, and two more relationships. And so it ended up with us.
"What should we do about Enid's ring?" I asked my sister from time to time. One thing was certain: although it was a lovely ring, neither of us were going to wear it. That would be just too weird. When Mom died, I inherited her beautiful diamond engagement ring, which I wear whenever I want to feel close to her. The last thing my sister or I wanted was to feel is close to Enid, a woman we struggled to tolerate when she was alive.
We thought about tracking down Enid's daughters and giving the ring to them. But they hadn't liked us any more than she had. And after Enid died, they'd sued Dad over the house. And there was the slight chance this wasn't actually their mother's wedding ring after all, but that of the woman he'd married after her death. However much you disliked someone, you wouldn't want to track them down and present them with that.
A wedding ring isn't jewelry. It's a symbol. This ring meant something, to Enid, and, until his death, to our father. But the moment he died, that value was gone. The ring had no sentimental value for us. If anything, it had reverse sentimental value. It brought back memories of a woman we didn't want to think about.
When a pawnshop opened in my neighborhood, I brought the ring in.
If I were a better person, I could report that I donated the money to a charity that Enid would have approved of. Perhaps breast cancer research. Or, taking another tack, that my sister and I used that cash to take ourselves out to lunch to celebrate the fact that, despite everything she'd put us through, we'd outlived this particular evil stepmother. But in fact, we did neither. We just put the cash in our wallets and went on with our lives.
One moment, a symbol of enduring love. The next, carelessly cashed in and melted down. Maybe it's karma. What goes around, comes around? Maybe selling Enid's ring didn't mean a thing. It could be that the ring wasn't even hers. Like so many things in life, that ring will always remain a bit of a mystery.
A bit of mystery, a bit of money, the best outcome.
I love your story and struggle with what to do with things I've inherited, from I don't even know who's they've been, but I got them. Great piece!

The constructive side of syndicalism - Arturo Giovanitti
Written in 1913, Giovannitti, Secretary of the left wing Italian Socialist Federation and editor of Il Proletario attempts to distinguish syndicalism from trade unionism, reformist socialism and anarchism.
The Constructive Side of Syndicalism
Its Nature and Aim
Like all the other new theories that have loomed up in the horizon on the troubled waters of capitalist society, or, for that matter, any society whatever, syndicalism is naturally going to be very much maligned, calumniated, and revolted against, not only by those that are not in sympathy with it from the economic point of view, but also from those that are sincere in their beliefs and earnest in uplifting mankind to the higher plane of civilization. It has been ever so throughout history, and it is so today.
But whatever may be said against syndicalism, the fact is this, that syndicalism has given expression to all the hopes that were latent for centuries and centuries in the breasts of the poor and downtrodden of society; that it represents the awakening of the working class; that it represents one of the most powerful social forces today that makes for the uplifting of mankind to the higher plane of civilization; that syndicalism represents all that is good, noble, uplifting in the heart of the proletariat. It is a fighting force today, it is the force today of capitalist society, but it is more than that. It is a constructive movement which will make for a new society, a society which will know neither master nor slave, and from which will have been forever eliminated the pauper and the millionaire, those who produce everything and own nothing, and those who do not produce anything and own all the good things of life.
An Old Fight in a New Form
This mighty struggle, which lately we have called class struggle, has gone on since the dawn of civilization and in every region, from the birth of mankind up to now. As Mr. Perkins told you this morning, it was in the darkest age a struggle between the slave and his master, afterwards between the serf and the baron, and now it is the struggle between the employee,—or the proletariat, if you want to call it by that word which is so very dear to us, — and the capitalist. It has assumed various forms and various shapes. It has fought by various methods; it has compromised sometimes, and sometimes it has fought to a finish; once, at least, it has remodeled and changed and completely revolutionized society, and today it is striving to do the same thing.
No Quarter Given or Taken
This mighty war, according to our theory and according to our study of the history of mankind, is something that cannot be arbitrated. It is something that cannot be neutralized, it is something that cannot be settled unless it be settled right. And we say that it cannot be settled right except in two ways, either that the capitalist society, capitalist class, by using all the oppressive weapons at their disposal will crush and destroy and obliterate in the hearts of the workers this magnificent spirit of rebellion which is so dear to us, and therefore drive back the course of history into the black ages, where the stronger ruled upon the weaker; or it will be solved by the working class taking in their hands the reins of their own history and by driving out of existence this class which has been the abomination of mankind. Driving out this way, I say, not by destroying it, but by assimilating it into the ranks of the workers themselves.
The Creators of our Civilization must be its Rulers
Labor, being at the bottom of society, labor, being the exclusive — not only the only reason but the exclusive reason — of the present civilization, it is natural and it is logical that when labor has risen to the full conception of its importance, of its power, and of its utter necessity, labor will eventually control all the powers of society. It may control them through the State, it may control them through a friendly understanding between the capitalist and between the bosses, it may control them by assuming directly the superintendence of everything, but this fact remains, that without labor modern society cannot exist, and that without capitalism probably modern society will exist much better than it exists today.
The Worker will Solve his own Problems
They have said that syndicalism is a destructive movement; that syndicalism would drive back humanity to the dark ages; that it wants to tear down everything beautiful and everything good that we have built so patiently for ages and ages. I believe, and I affirm most solemnly, that syndicalism is the only constructive movement in society today; it has nothing to destroy, it has everything to upbuild.
The social question, which has been the most perplexing question of the last five or six decades, is going to be solved only by those who are directly interested in solving it. However in earnest you may be to solve this question, let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, that you can do absolutely nothing. The workers are the ones that are going to work out their own salvation. The workers are the ones who are going to dictate under what terms they want to work and under what terms they are going to produce whatever is necessary for the maintenance of society. Everybody speaks about the workers today; the preacher from the pulpit is very much in earnest about bringing about some remedies whereby the working class might be benefited; the politicians speak of nothing else but that; all the political platforms are full of various plans for the poor, downtrodden working class. The capitalists, too, are racking their brains to invent all sorts of schemes in order to do something for those poor workingmen. Every one is willing to put a hand and a shoulder to the wheel to let this car go ahead and solve the social question, but nobody wants to recognize that the workers alone are to solve this question.
We go to the workingmen and say, "Now, you are the persons who are most concerned in this case; what are you going to do about it?" Nobody says that except the syndicalist. Therefore, I say that the only constructive movement that aims at the direct solution of the social question in behalf of the workers is naturally the movement of the workers themselves.
Syndicalism not a Theory, but a Fact
It is more than a fact; it is a movement. On this movement we have tried to build some kind of what you may call a philosophy, but it is not an abstract philosophy. We do not start from an idea or from a theory and then begin to come back; we do not build the house from the roof; we start from the practical facts; we recognize that the working class today is in a condition of abject slavery, that the working class wants to get out of this condition, and that the only way to get out is to gather together in one big mighty whole and there discuss the ways and means whereby they can attain their liberation and emancipation.
Classes and Class War
That being the fact, we recognize another thing, namely, that there is amighty struggle going on, as in the past centuries, between the class that has the economic power and the working class. Between these two classes there are quite a few intermediate classes — there are the professional classes, there are the small business classes, there are various other classes that are not interested in the advancement of the capitalist or in the uplifting of the working class in the economic field. These intermediate classes live simply because capitalism exists. The lawyer could not live if there was not capitalism, because if there was not capitalism there would be no strikes, there would be no lawsuits, there would be no thieves, there would be no murder. There would be nothing to be argued before the court of justice. The business man, the trader, the tradesman, the merchant, lives only because capitalism exists.
If the workers were the direct producers of all wealth and were the direct consumers of all that wealth, naturally there would not be any room for those middlemen. The professional classes exist because capitalism exists and they have all their interest to uplift capitalism. They know that the day the working class takes hold of the reins of society they will be abolished, absorbed into the ranks of the workers, and they themselves will have to work for a living. Therefore, they are inventing all sorts of palliatives and all sorts of remedies, and inventing all sorts of methods to pacify these two conflicting classes in order that one would not take the upper hand on the other class.
We do not Believe in Social Pacification
The interests are diametrically opposed to each other. The capitalist wants to make as much money as he can and the working man wants to make as much money as he can. The capitalist wants the workingman to work as long as he can, and the workingman, on the other hand, would like to work, not eight hours, but six hours or four hours, and if they could not work at all probably they would like it much better, because, as you know, labor has always been considered as a curse from the Almighty on mankind, and every one of us more or less feels this curse. I do not mean intellectual labor, but manual labor, those men who have been put down to the same level as the brute.
Who Shall be the Arbitrator?
Who is going to say what is a fair share for the laborer? Who is going to say what is a fair share for the capitalist? Who is going to say how many hours one should work and the other should sleep? We must have a neutral judge, an absolutely impartial judge, who could go to work and regulate everything to the satisfaction of all. That is why we syndicalists, by following to the letter the doctrine that has been preached and heralded for so many years by the socialists of the various schools, have thought that the conflict must go on between those two classes until the workers have come into the full inheritance of what was originally their own and what is the product of their own sweat and of their own labor. We want to eliminate completely the middleman.
Ours is not a Gospel of Peace
It is not a gospel of pacification, it is not a gospel of harmony and brotherly love. So far as the economic conditions are concerned, ours is a struggle for the mastership and for the rulership of the earth. Ours is the gospel of the social war; ours is the gospel of the individual that has labored against another individual, and the class that is laboring against another class. If we can obtain justice by good means let us have them immediately, but if in order to get justice we must have war and fight, then let us fight. If we have no other weapons we will use our claws and hands. Because justice is something which must be established firmly in all those who have for so many centuries lived on injustice. Justice is something that cannot be granted from above; justice is something which must be fought out from below.
Syndicalism has very little to do with the expectation of what is going to happen tomorrow. Therefore, I cannot tell you how we are going to run the industries when syndicalism or socialism has been established, but I can tell you how that thing is to be established, and every one of you will be very much more interested in knowing how we are going to dispossess him than how we will run his business afterwards.
Having disposed of all this outside interference between these two classes, the capitalist class and the working class, standing squarely and uncompromisingly upon the ground of the class struggle, we simply face the capitalist class with the united power of our hosts. We tell the workers that they must unite together in one solid unit; that they must develop in the ranks a spirit of solidarity, a spirit of interdependence; that they must study more and more what concerns them directly, and that they must develop in themselves a spirit of self-denial and a spirit of sacrifice, which is the only thing that can keep them together and that can insure them a final victory. When wc have a union of workers we know that in that union of workers there is a spirit of unrest, we know there is the spirit of revolt, and we go to the capitalist class and say, "They are not going to work any more for the conditions which they have faced before."
Distinguished from Trade Unionism
Syndicalism — or rather, I prefer to use the word "Industrial Unionism" — is different from the other trade organizations. It docs not belong in the sectional or factional or trade or craft division of the working class; it belongs in the absolute unification of every man and woman and child who works with his hands and brain, no matter which, for the direct production of all that is necessary in society. Industrial unionism does not believe in nationality, does not believe in creeds, does not believe in political parties; it simply tries to unite together in one solid amalgam all those forces of the working class and then pit them against the capitalist class. It does not believe in the trade strike; it has a different method, it believes in the industrial strike. It believes that when the time of action has arrived the workers of a given industrv will strike simultaneously, or, to put it with the phrase of Bill Haywood, "All together."
Outside of the immediate industrial union we have a national industrial union, and then a federation of all these national industrial unions, which controls all the industrial workers of the world. We have no contract, because we refuse to sign any contract with the bosses, and by having no contract with the various trades or with the various industries we are in a way free at a moment's notice to call a strike in which every industry will be affected throughout the State or nation, and by a series of strikes and by the enforcement of the boycott, whereby we can refuse to buy goods from an unfair firm, and by a rigid application of the label we can force the capitalist class to terms.
Strikes and the General Strike
Every one of us knows — and no man is more convinced of it than I .— that the strike to a certain extent is very futile. When a strike is settled there is an agreement made between the boss and the workers in which the workingman pledges himself to work for certain hours, say for eight hours a day, and to receive for his labor, say, $4 a day. The boss, on the other side, does not pledge himself not to raise the price of the product that these workers produce, and naturally the next day, as soon as he finds that he has been hit very hard in his pocketbook, the boss immediately remedies his loss by raising the price of his products. Thus this seesaw movement continues interminably, until sometime the workers are going to put an end to it by making an actual dent in the profit of the boss. For making this dent in the profit of the boss one thing alone is necessary, to devise some means and schemes whereby the boss will be prevented from raising the price of the product. How are we going to do it? In this way: By striking simultaneously in all the industries, if necessary, and by forcing the label on the boss, and by telling him we are not going to buy any more of his goods unless sold at the same price as before.
How We Shall Deal with the State
Then in this mighty struggle between the workers and capital we find that we are hampered in making clear cut the class divisions. We find that there are some impediments that stand between the army of the capitalist on the one side and the army of the workers on the other side. If these two armies were on a war footing and were just one against the other, with their artilleries in shape, I think that the social question would have been settled long ago. But there is something else which stands in the way, and that something is the State, it is the power of government. It is what is supposed to be the instrument of the will of the people. The State has its soldiers, it has its policemen, it has its laws, it has its legislative assemblies, it has its judges, it has its jails, it has its hangmen and executioners, and all these various elements which constitute the government are all directly interested in keeping society as it is now. Now, you may transform it as much as you want to, you may modify it and modernize it, but the fact remains that this State exists because these classes exist, and if you are going to put these classes up or down this State will eventually disappear. That is what we syndicalists say. We say that the State is the great impediment to the solution of the social question.
And here is where our attitude differs from the attitude of the socialist and from that of the anarchists on the other side. The socialists say that the root of all evil is the State; the anarchists say likewise that the root of all evil is also the State. But the socialists say, "Let us capture the State and by capturing it we will remedy everything." The anarchists say, on the contrary, "Let us destroy it, and by destroying it we will also remedy everything." Now, we syndicalists say that we are going neither to capture it nor to destroy it, but to gradually absorb it into the working class.
"Direct Action"
Let me tell you how we are going to do it, and how we are doing it. All of the functions of the State are gradually being transformed to the working class. There was a bill for an eighthour law a few years ago in this country, and I think it passed the Congress and the Senate, — I don't know whether it was the Federal Congress or Senate, — but it had been passed practically in seven or eight States, and then this law was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court and was never put into effect. Then the workers took this law into their own hands. They assembled in their convention halls and they passed an eight-hour law right then and there. They have struck for this eight-hour law and they are going to get it. And if they do not get it just now they will get it later on. But that is the only way to get it, simply by taking it into their own hands. This is what we call direct action. Therefore one function of the State, so far as the industry is concerned, has been taken away from it, it has been transferred into the labor union.
Syndicalist Schools
Also, other attributes of the capitalist State are gradually taken by the workers themselves. One of the most necessary functions of the State is the question of education. It has been said that the State was going to educate every citizen and give every citizen a liberal education. Well, we syndicalists have come to a different conclusion; we are not satisfied with the way our children are taught in the public schools; we do not want them to go any more to the public schools; we are going to build our own socialist school, our liberal school, where we are going to teach them truth, science, and everything that makes for the uplifting and for the betterment of mankind. We are not going to read them the Bible every morning; we are not going to make them sing about the American flag and how beautiful it is to get slaughtered to defend one's country; we are not going to tell them that the American people are the greatest people in the world; we are not going to tell them that in case of war it is a great and beautiful thing to go and be shot to pieces simply to defend the pocketbook and the commerce of the master class; but we are going to tell them and educate them along class lines.
We are going to give them a one-sided education, but this one-sided education consists in instilling into their hearts the most strong dislike and the most bitter hatred against all form of oppression. Therefore, against this last rampart, this last bul wark of capitalism, we are going to oppose the Modern School, for which Francisco Ferrer was shot to death four years ago in Spain.
An Issue Forced
And then when we have done all these things you will naturally see that all the other classes will have been compelled to take sides or issue either with one class or the other class. When the lines are sharply drawn between these two classes, then, ladies and gentlemen, it will come to the question of a test of force, to a test of power. I do not mean necessarily violence, but I mean power. Because all the evangel of the Industrial Workers of the World and the syndicalist movement all over the world is this: that there is no such thing as right without a good solid force to back it up.
A New Social Order
It is a new State in society that we are going to have just now; it is a movement upward, it is not a movement downward. It is the next degree in the tragedy of social and human evolution, it is something that will grant to every individual the full product of his labor and guarantee to him the most complete expression of his own individuality. For I claim that syndicalism is not the "slavery" that Herbert Spencer called socialism. Syndicalism is something more powerful than that. It does not believe in the almightiness of the all-powerful capitalism that has had to dispense welfare to every member of the community by keeping them in subjection arid slavery. It is a new individualism; not the individualism of the economic man as the capitalist understands it, but the individualism of the complete individual, the one that feels first of all the power of his own personality and believes that he must develop himself in order to develop the environment in which he is, and then he knows that he is a unit of this mighty whole which goes forward toward a definite goal which some of you might call the Kingdom of God and which I prefer to call the Kingdom of Man.

Entdinglichung
any idea what Giovanitti did after 1914?
sorry for the derail, but how you doin' david?
I'm doing well thanks. Recovering nicely
A small publishing house that keeps some of Giovanitti's poetry, which is very good by the way, in print has this timeline.
1914 – Translates Emile Pouget's Sabotage into English for the IWW, and translates Leopold Kampf's drama On the Eve into English. His first book of English poems, Arrows in the Gale, is published with an introduction by Helen Keller. Establishes Il fuoco, an anti-war journal.
1915 – Il fuoco ceases publishing and Giovannitti starts another journal, Vita.
1916 – His drama Tenebre rosse is staged — one of many plays he wrote during his life. Both his brothers fought and died during World War I, serving in the Italian Army.
1923 – Organized the Anti-Fascist Association of North America and became its secretary-general.
1924-1925 – Edited the Italian-language journal, Il veltro. In 1925, Giovannitti reunites with Joseph Ettor to lobby for the release of Sacco and Vanzetti.
1930s – Gradually stopped writing for the American press and centered on his leftist activities. His heavy drinking starts affecting his health.
1938 – Publication of Parole e sangue, a book of his Italian-language poems.
1940s/50s – Giovannitti's health continues to decline. He eventually ceases all writing and political activity.
1957 – Quando canto il gallo, a collection of his Italian-language poems is published in Chicago.
1959 – Dies in the Bronx on January 31. He was separated from his wife Carrie and survived by a son, Len, and two daughters, Roma and Vera.

Biology in Carroll County Public Schools is taught during the tenth grade year as a rigorous lab based science course preparing students for a high stakes Maryland State High School Assessment. Students must pass the Maryland H.S.A. in order to receive a high school diploma. Biology is the third course in a high school scope and sequence following Conceptual Physics and Chemistry.
In Biology, students will use the skills and processes of science along with major biological concepts to explain the uniqueness and interdependence of living organisms, their interactions with the environment, and the continuation of life on earth. Within the course students will use the language and instruments of science to collect, organize, interpret, calculate, and communicate information. They will understand the correlation between the structure and function of biologically important molecules and their relationship to cell processes. Students will also know that all organisms are composed of cells which can function independently or as a part of multicellular organisms. Additionally, students will know that inherited traits are passed on from one generation to another, and there is a mechanism of evolutionary change that explains relatedness and how living organisms change over time. Finally, the course will emphasize the interdependence of diverse living organisms including a consideration of current biological issues that impact living organisms.
The Carroll County Biology curriculum is closely aligned with the Maryland Core Learning Goals for skills and processes of science as well as for biology content. Students are immersed in the scientific method and the language of science throughout the course. The chemistry of life is a concept thoroughly explored as students describe the unique characteristics of chemical substances and macromolecules utilized by living systems. An understanding of homeostatic mechanisms that regulate chemical activities is rigorously developed as well. Students also compare the transfer and use of matter and energy by studying photosynthesis and respiration. Students develop an understanding of cells and cell processes as they explore unicellular and multicellular organisms. Genetics and heredity are covered allowing students to analyze how traits are carried from parent to offspring. The theory of evolution helps students explain how organisms are related and how they change over time. Ecological concepts are also developed as students investigate organism relationships and interaction of organisms within the environment.
Students also explore how they impact the world around them. These unifying principles in biology are rigorously explored and explained throughout the biology course.
Carroll County Biology Teachers utilize the 5E Inquiry Model in all unit and daily planning. This constructivist approach to instructional delivery provides learners with opportunities to construct content knowledge. Teachers plan and implement a variety of strategies which promote inquiry. Teachers function as facilitators guiding student learning through lab experiences, web quests, computer simulations, and other student centered learning opportunities. Student learners collect and analyze data, synthesize information, interpret meaning and draw conclusions on a wide variety of content topics before applying these understandings to real world situations. Technology is widely used and features, but not limited to, computers, internet, software, simulations, interface, sensors, and gel electrophoresis. Students develop techniques in the use of the technology tools of real world Biologists. Differentiated Instructional strategies provide teachers with the ability to modify content, process, and product to reach the learning styles and needs of their diverse learners. Flexible grouping, cooperative learning, anticipation guides, tiered lessons, learning profiles, and double entry journals are some examples of DI strategies that may be used. Assessment is used early and often by biology teachers. Teachers elicit prior knowledge from students before implementing lessons. Evaluation is often seamless with instruction as teachers check for student learning. Assessment tools model Maryland H.S.A. items enabling learners to effectively prepare for high stakes testing. Formative assessments in the form of benchmarks are given electronically throughout the course helping teachers check student progress and make instructional decisions. The Carroll County Biology curriculum sets challenging and rigorous expectations for learning and provides teachers with the equipment and materials needed to help students succeed.

Sustain Our Nation's Forests and Grasslands
Local and international monitors assist with Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie annual survey
ILLINOIS – Floristic quality monitors teamed up from as far away as London, England this summer to help survey the diversity of prairie restoration areas at the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie. Their involvement is essential to progress in the native Illinois prairie habitat restoration that began here nearly 25 years ago on land previously belonging to the former Joliet Army Arsenal.
Of the 18,500-acre Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie, there are over 3,000 acres at various ages and levels of restoration. A measure of quality control is to survey, analyze and compare, each year, restoration sites on the Midewin with other known high-quality natural areas.
Native Illinois prairie plants are monitored within random quadrants along 100-meter transects each year. Data that is collected helps determine diversity and success of restorations over time.
Emily Blackmore participated in the surveys on July 16 while on a travel scholarship through a certificate program with Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, near London, England ("Kew Gardens"). Blackmore visited 10 sites within two weeks in northeastern Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin.
The intent of her U.S. visit was to experience remnant prairies in their natural habitats, managed restoration prairies, prairie planting in cultivation and the urban environment in the Midwest.
"I wanted to study prairie plants within the remnant habitats and observe the ecosystem they support," Blackmore said. "I wanted to learn more about restoration of prairies and the research required for implementation and management. I wanted to visit prairie planting used in cultivation and the urban environment and explore the considerations for the selection, design and maintenance of planting and its environmental benefits."
Blackmore said she had worked with many Illinois prairie plants before, such as solidago, asters, echinacea, panicum and baptisia but her visit to the U.S. exposed her for the first time to plants such as silphium, milkweed, big bluestem and more.
Floristic surveys on the Midewin this year began on July 1 and continued through the third week of July. Fourteen Midewin volunteers and Midewin restoration staff were led by Midewin Botanist Michelle Pearion. The teams counted the numbers of native Illinois prairie plants growing in 16 transects on the west side. The teams used quadrats to study the transects with 25 quadrats on each transect.
On July 1, a team surveying at Blodgett Road off of West Patrol Road spotted white wild indigo. Monitors also spotted abundant black-eyed susans, cup plant, ironweed and more native Illinois prairie plants.
The Midewin Volunteer program is managed by The Nature Conservancy in Illinois in a partnership agreement with the USDA Forest Service.

Clarice Tompkins
Highgrove Home for Children :: Information Centre :: The Filing Cabinet :: Resident Files
Clarice Tompkins on Mon Mar 05, 2012 8:29 pm
Resident Full Name: Clarice Imogen Tompkins
Resident Date of Birth: February 27, 1996
Resident Age: 15
Resident Gender: Female
Current Address: 147 Hopewell Drive
City/Town: Chatham
County/State: Kent
Resident Hair Colour: Light Brown
Resident Eye Colour: Hazel
Resident Height: 5' 4"
Resident Weight: 112 lbs
Distinguishing Marks: I have a roughly cross-shaped birthmark on the left side of my torso.
Do you have any ongoing medical conditions for which you require long-term treatment or medications?
No, I do not.
Are you aware of any allergies you may have to foods, medications or environmental elements? If so, please list them below along with age of onset.
I get a little sneezy in the springtime, probably from all the pollen in the air. I don't think I'm really deathly allergic to anything, though.
Do you take any other medications or drugs not prescribed to you, or participate in the consumption of alcohol or tobacco?
I don't touch drugs or alcohol, because I don't want to take in anything that might cloud my mind. I need to be alert to the purposes Father has for me.
Environmental Screening
Where were you born and where did you grow up? What was it like there?
I was born in Chatham, Kent. I grew up in a small, three bedroom flat above a shop owned by my maternal grandparents. There were six of us in that flat, and I'm the eldest. I shared a room with my younger sister, Corrine. My younger twin brothers, Colin and Cooper, also share a room. Mum and Dad raised us to be polite a respectful. We went to church every Sunday, prayed and read the Bible as a family, did our chores and homework, and were expected to behave ourselves in public. Really, I don't see why I had to be taken away from my family. Everybody ought to live like that.
What Clarice fails to mention is the fact that her father works in construction, and often has to be away at a job site, sometimes for days at a time. I have also been informed by Clarice's grandparents that her mother was in the habit of sleeping with other men while her husband was out of town. I don't know if Clarice is aware of her mother's infidelity, and even if she is, she would be in deep denial about it. Clarice was largely raised by her deeply religious maternal grandparents who live nearby, although she prefers to be seen as belonging to a more traditional family dynamic.
Please describe your relationships with your biological family, including parents, and siblings if applicable.
I obviously love my family. I was lucky to be born to parents who taught me to respect God and others. My brothers are young, only seven, and try to be good boys. Corrine, who is thirteen, is far too impressed by the trappings of the world, despite my attempts to persuade her away from such things.
Clarice's attempts to 'persuade' her sister have included her throwing away or destroying her sister's property such as make-up, clothing, and CDs. She feels that her sister is too young for the clothing and make-up she wears, that it is too revealing and provocative despite that by modern standards, her sister was often quite modestly dressed. She also disapproved of her sister listening to popular music, saying that popular music only serves to glorify wickedness. She's also gone so far as to write 'harlot' across her sister's forehead while Corrine was asleep, and also established a pattern of bullying and verbal abuse towards her.
How were/are you in school? How are your grades? Do you enjoy school?
I endure school because I know that Father expects his servants to educate themselves. My grades have never been at the top of my class, but I do try my best.
Clarice does not enjoy school largely because she does not enjoy other people. She feels that she should be exempted from school because she believes that she has a special status as an 'Instrument of God'.
Do you participate in any extracurricular activities or belong to any after-school clubs?
I do not. I devote myself fully to the worship of my God. If I didn't know that God wanted me to go to school and educate myself, I'd have given that up too.
If you no longer reside with your biological family, please describe any previous homes as well as your current situation.
I was taken away from my family six months ago, after that unfortunate incident involving my teacher. The woman running the group home I live in now won't tell me why I can't go home.
The 'incident', which I will go into more detail about below, involved Clarice harassing one of her teachers to the point where the woman resigned.
Do you have many/any friends? If so, please describe them.
I find children, particularly girls, my age hard to relate to. They don't understand me, and I don't want to be sucked into their shallowness.
Clarice holds herself above others, though she makes a show of being humble. She has little in common with her peers.
Are you sexually active? Are you aware of any gender preference, or preferences in intimate practices, activities or situations?
I believe in abstinence until marriage.
Clarice fears she may be bisexual, and worries that it makes her more common. She is sexually inexperienced not only due to her religious beliefs, but also because she doubts that there exists anyone worthy of her.
Have you ever knowingly committed a crime? Were you caught and convicted? If convicted, what was your sentencing?
I believe that the actions I took regarding my teacher were termed harassment, although that certainly wasn't my intent. As an educator of young minds, she ought to have known better. Most people my age are known to be extremely impressionable.
A teacher at Clarice's school, who taught both biology and sex ed, became the object of Clarice's wrath when not only did she refuse to teach creationism alongside evolution, but also urged the school to provide free condoms, and passed them out herself during her sex ed class. Clarice not only campaigned to have the teacher fired, but sent anonymous hate mail including death threats, graffitied her car, and lied about being sexually assaulted by the teacher. A court sent her to me for therapy, and removed her from her home, placing her in a home for troubled girls. She has a restraining order taken out against her by the teacher, and was required to complete two-hundred hours of community service.
Clinical Screening
Have you ever been diagnosed with any psychiatric ailments by a medical or psychiatric professional? If yes, please explain below.
When I was taken away from my parents, the therapist they sent me to diagnosed me as Narcissistic and Delusional. This is not true.
Clarice is deeply in denial about her problems. She not only holds herself above others as being special, but she also firmly believes that she has been chosen by God. When questioned about these beliefs, and how she arrived at that conclusion, she either becomes hostile, withdrawals, or quotes passages of the Bible. She doesn't appear to suffer from hallucinations regarding her relationship with God, or else she would surely hold those as proof of her 'purpose'. She has a hard time dealing with situations in which she feels ignored or belittled, and requires an unreasonable amount of praise from others in order to function on any sort of social level. She shows little remorse for her actions, although I am confident that she knows that they are wrong.
Please describe any incidents associated with these ailments, such as antisocial behaviours, social or environmental difficulties, incidents of self harming, suicidal thoughts, suicide attempts, substance abuse, etc.
In addition to her treatment of her sister and her teacher, Clarice habitually exploits others for her own gratification, expects special treatment, has an inflated sense of self-importance, and fails to see that how she treats other people is hurtful. In her current residence, she has antagonized not only her roommate, but also the other girls and the woman running the place. She feels that their refusal to accompany her to church (she is escorted to church by a worker at the place she's staying) is a rejection of her. The threat of not allowing her to attend church on Sundays is the only way to compel her to be amiable towards others.
Have you ever seen a licensed psychiatric professional, psychologist, or counsellor for these ailments? If yes, please list doctor(s) or counsellor(s) below:
I have a court-mandated therapist twice a week. Her name is Brenda Edwards.
Do you take any medications for any diagnosed psychiatric ailments? If yes, please list medication, dosage, and frequency of dosage below:
Risperdal 0.5 mg once daily. I don't like taking it because I don't need it, but they make me take it anyway. Obedience is a virtue, I guess.
Have you ever been admitted to a short or long-term psychiatric facility as a result of these ailments or associated incidents?
The group home I'm in now is supposed to be for 'disturbed' girls. Does that count?
Clarice is currently staying in a facility that cares for troubled girls. Many of the cases are of eating disorders or behavioral problems, and most of the girls are required to attend therapy. She does not attend school currently, instead being educated by a tutor who comes three days a week to instruct all of the fifty or so girls that live there. She had a short stay of two weeks in a mental facility before being assigned to her current residence.
How do you feel these ailments affect your quality of life or your situation in life?
I don't know, since I don't suffer from any ailments.
If you could be cured of your ailments, what would your goals in life be?
My goal in life is to be a good Christian woman.
How do you feel these goals would be best attained?
I always try and do my best to live a Christ-centered life. I also try and set a good example for others.
Why do you feel you are being referred to Highgrove, and by whom?
I cannot stay here because my roommate is a psychopath. She assaulted me for no reason--and when she really ought to be thanking me nonetheless--and continues to threaten me and use obscene language and gestures in my presence.
Clarice attempted to re-establish the pattern of dominance she enjoyed over her younger sister, antagonizing and destroying the property of her roommate. Unfortunately for Clarice, her roommate was not willing to be passive or docile. The young woman suffered from a conduct disorder, and attacked Clarice when she caught her trying to throw away most of her belongings. Clarice had already destroyed many of the items so that they were useless. Clarice was beaten so badly by her roommate that she required six stitches over her right eyebrow, and her left wrist was fractured. Despite this, she continued to antagonize the girl, including several attempts to frame her for various misbehaviors. I fear that Clarice is no longer safe in this environment.
The Spoken, Representative Interview
Hello, and thank you for meeting with me today. Our interview today will be recorded for review later. I'm going to ask you a series of questions, and I'd like for you to answer as fully as you are able. I'd like to start by asking you how you're feeling today.
Fine, thank you.
Patient Observation: Clarice appears composed and smiles pleasantly.
Okay. And how are you feeling about this opportunity to join our family at Highgrove?
Not to sound ungrateful, but I'd rather have my real family back, actually.
If you could alter one event in your life, what event do you think you would change or remove, and why?
If Father had removed this cup from my lips, perhaps I could have lived a more ordinary life. Although, while that might have been easier, I know Father has blessings stored up for me in the hereafter.
Patient Observation: Clarice speaks clearly, her head held high, her posture perfect, and an arrogant expression on her face. It's clear she believes what she's saying.
If you had to describe yourself in only three words, what words would you choose and why?
Good Christian Woman. I believe that this encompasses not only who I am now, but who I am trying to become.
How do you feel currently about your life so far, and anything you may have done?
I have done only what was required of me. Unfortunately, I can choose only my own actions, and not those of others.
Patient Observation: Clarice's tone turns condescending when she speaks of others.
What would you do if you found a stranger being attacked by another stranger, and why?
I would try and call for an authority figure. Failing that, I would intercede on the victim's behalf.
What would you do if you were being threatened by a stranger, and why?
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Patient Observation: Clarice holds eye contact as she tonelessly recites this passage. She cannot be coaxed to answer the question any other way.
Have you ever deliberately harmed yourself, another, or animals in the past? If so, why do you think that was?
No. What kind of person do you think I am?
Patient Observation: Clarice is clearly offended at this question, and her facial expression registers indignation and contempt.
And lastly, what do you hope to find at Highgrove, and how do you think this will help you to learn and grow?
I trust that if I go to Highgrove that Father has a purpose for sending me there. Is that all? May I be excused?
This concludes our interview for today. Thank you for filling out our application and speaking with me. We will contact you or your guardian shortly with our decision or recommendations.In the meantime, enjoy the rest of your day. Goodbye.
Out of Character Section
Is there anything your character is not telling us? Do they have any dirty or dark little secrets they're omitting from their application? Please explain below.
Clarice is indeed aware of her mother's infidelity, although she prefers an alternate explanation. When she was eleven, she overheard her paternal grandparents discussing her mother by saying something to the effect that Clarice might not be her father's child. Clarice believes that her biological father may be an angel or other divine personage. This, combined with her birthmark has lead Clarice to deeply believe that she is chosen of God to proclaim His gospel.

On the occasion of World Rhino Day, the Minister of Environmental Affairs, Dr Edna Molewa, has thanked all government departments, law enforcement agencies, civil society and all South Africans for their commitment to conserve one of the world's most iconic species, the rhino.
"Whilst it is important to acknowledge the efforts of government departments and agencies in implementing the Integrated Strategic Management of Rhinoceros approach, at the same time we must recognise the efforts of our communities, the NGO community, business, and all ordinary South Africans who are doing their part," said Minister Molewa.
Every year on September 22nd, the world marks World Rhino Day to raise awareness around the impact of rhino poaching. The theme of this year's World Rhino Day is Five Rhino Species Forever; in reference to the five species of rhino: the Black rhino, While rhino, Greater one-horned rhino, Sumatran and Javan rhinos.
"As home to the largest population of rhino in the world, South Africa continues to have a proud record for species conservation… despite the grim impact of the illicit transnational wildlife trade on our rhino, we continue to register successes in bringing poaching numbers down," said Dr. Molewa.
South Africa brought the rhino back from the brink of extinction in the 1960's and today has an estimated 20 000 black and white rhino.
This is thanks to the collaborative conservation efforts of government departments and agencies, private rhino owners, NGO's and most importantly, the efforts of communities living adjacent to national parks as well as state ad privately-owned conservation areas.
Key aspects of the Integrated Strategic Management (ISM) Approach are managing rhino populations, compulsory interventions (including proactive anti-poaching measures), international and national collaboration and cooperation, as well as long-term sustainability measures.
Significant progress has been made with regards to the implementation of the interventions, such as a slow but steady decline in rhino poaching numbers.
The Integrated Strategic Management Approach draws together the Justice, Crime Prevention and Security Cluster Departments as well as the Departments of Defence, Environmental Affairs, Justice, Constitutional Development and Correctional Services, the South African Police Service (SAPS), Ministry of State Security and its Agency, South African National Parks (SANParks), the South African Revenue Service (SARS), as well as provincial conservation authorities.
There has in recent months been an increase in the number of detections of illegally trafficked rhino horn at ports of entry and exit thanks to the work of the Department's Environmental Management Inspectors, better known as the Green Scorpions. They work in collaboration with SARS' customs and excise unit, the SAPS and other law enforcement entities stationed at the airport.
The Department used World Rhino Day to reassure South Africans that government has strict legislative provisions in place to ensure that the domestic trade in rhino horn takes place in a well-regulated manner. The international trade in rhino horn remains prohibited in terms of the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
Bringing local communities into the mainstream of conservation is central to government's anti-poaching strategy. To this end, World Rhino Day serves as an opportunity to build and instil a culture of responsible citizenship amongst communities living adjacent to conservation areas.
It is communities who suffer the most from the increased insecurity that results when there is poaching-related activity in the vicinity in which they live.
Through the National Biodiversity Strategy (BES) government aims to give historically disadvantaged communities a greater stake in the wildlife economy, including through game donation and supporting community-owned tourism ventures.
"Wildlife tourism is the mainstay of our country's economy; rhino poaching negatively impacts our reputation as a tourism destination, which in turn impacts the ability of the tourism sector to generate jobs and sustainable livelihoods, especially for communities in rural areas where most of our parks are located," said Dr. Molewa.
The Minister called on all South Africans to join hands with government to put an end to rhino poaching by reporting suspected rhino poaching activities.
"By blowing the whistle on all forms of wildlife crime you are not only contributing towards saving a species for future generations to enjoy and benefit from, you are also contributing to a safer society," said the Minister.

Marshfield girls fall just short in sectional final
WESTON - With her team facing a double-digit deficit early in the second half Saturday, Marshfield coach Heidi Michaelis called a timeout and asked her players one question in the ensuing huddle.
"It was simply a matter of saying, 'This the way we are going to end our season? Just going away doing everything we didn't do to get us to this point?' (The players) kind of got mad and said, 'If we're going down, let's go down hard.'"
The top-seeded Tigers responded by rallying and taking the lead against Appleton North twice late in regulation before ultimately falling to the Lightning 56-54 in a WIAA Division 1 girls basketball sectional title game at D.C. Everest.
Sophomore guard Kari Brekke led North with 18 points. Sophomore guard Meg Bryan had a team-high 17 points for the Tigers.
Marshfield had a final possession with just under six seconds left, but couldn't get a shot off in time as the third-seeded Lightning earned the victory.
North junior forward Callie Pohlman's drive down the middle of the lane broke a 54-54 tie with 14 seconds left in regulation.
"We ran that set three times and we failed on it twice. We just missed (Pohlman), she was open," North coach Joe Russom said. "I said, 'We'll run it again and you guys find her. She's open.' And Grace (Garvey) did. That was huge."
Marshfield then called a timeout with 5.8 seconds left to set up its final possession. Ema Fehrenbach inbounded the ball from under the basket to the top of the key, and Hannah Meverden swung the ball to the right wing.
McKayla Scheuer then got a quick pass and started to drive toward the middle of the lane before passing to Fehrenbach on a backdoor cut. The clock expired as Fehrenbach turned and before she released her shot.
"It didn't go the way we wanted, but I still think (the play) was a good idea," Michaelis said. "You want Ema going to that left side and finishing (on the play). Appleton North covered it well. They knew what it was. In retrospect, you always look back and say, 'Maybe I should have done that.' But that's basketball and that's scouting. You always want to get a shot off and when you don't, it's kind of hard. But the kids battled and I'm proud of them."
Garvey banked in a shot to give North a 44-32 lead, its biggest cushion of the game, with 12:10 left in regulation. Marshfield responded with a 19-6 run and took a 51-50 lead on Bryan's 3-pointer from the left corner.
Bryan had tied the game 48-48 moments earlier with a shot from the same spot and had three 3-pointers in the second half and five for the game.
"I didn't even see the last (3-pointer) she hit, I just heard the crowd go crazy," Michaelis said. "She's a good shooter and she can get hot. She didn't play scared and that whole game she just wanted that ball."
Marshfield led for the majority of the first half and North didn't take its first lead until Kari Brekke hit a pair of free throws to put the Lightning in front 22-21 with just over four minutes left in the half.
It was part of North's 11-4 run to close out the half as the Lightning entered the break with a 31-24 lead.
Brekke had 14 points in the first half and half of that came in the Lightning's late push.
"You watch the tape and know that she is quick, but in person she is even quicker," Michaelis said of Brekke. "She just runs the show out there. You have someone who can knock down a (3-pointer) and you have someone that if you come out at (on the perimeter) will just go right around you to either finish or kick (the ball) out. She is going to be a lot for anyone to deal with in the coming years."
Marshfield committed nine turnovers in the first half against North's run-and-jump pressure defense. Roughly half that amount came in the final stretch of the first half, including a 10-second backcourt violation as Marshfield was unable to advance the ball past midcourt on the play.
"All year long we have talked about playing defense," Brekke said. "(Marshfied) did a good job at times with ball-handling and dealing with (the pressure), but I think the biggest thing was fatigue. I was guarding No. 1 (Scheuer) and No. 3 (Bryan) and I could see it."

AMD has "no software ecosystem that's meaningful" without Intel
Intel's 2019 Investor Meeting this week was chock full of hardware strategy, new CPU roadmaps, and 10nm and 7nm process insights. But it also contained a little shade being thrown over its competition by Raja Koduri, Intel's systems and graphics architect and senior VP.
While talking about Intel's new software strategy Koduri took time out to look at what its competition is doing in that field, with very thinly veiled references to both Nvidia and AMD. Without mentioning either by name, but with some very obvious colour palettes used, he referenced what Nvidia is doing around its GPUs, and poured not a little scorn on what his erstwhile employer is doing itself.
He was not always Intel's Raja Koduri, but once a big noise at AMD, and as such you'd think he would have some very specific insights into the inner workings of the red team. "[AMD] has two architectures," he says, "no memory or interconnect strategy that I know of, and the size of the developer ecosystem is tiny. In fact, without our invaluable software contributions they have no software ecosystem that's meaningful."
Ouch. That's a stinging indictment of AMD's software strategy right there, but also it seems a little at odds with what he's said in the past. Granted, that was when he was still employed by the red team, but still it's hard to believe he's forgotten all about the Infinity Fabric interconnect, and the AI-centric Radeon Instinct line of GPUs that he helped start.
Top chips: These are the best CPUs for gaming today
As AMD's chief architect, however, Koduri did regard Infinity Fabric as an interconnect.
"Infinity Fabric allows us to join different engines together on a die much easier than before," he once said. "As well it enables some really low latency and high-bandwidth interconnects. This is important to tie together our different IPs together efficiently and quickly. If forms the basis of all of our future ASIC designs."
That does sound a lot like an interconnect strategy to me.
But it's also interesting that in the comparison slide Intel actually has Nvidia (on the left) as the bigger competition, with AMD (on the right) barely a speck on its radar, judging by the scale used on-screen. There's also no mention of any of AMD's burgeoning data centre work alongside the interconnect omission either.
Analysts are still predicting that AMD is gaining market share in the data center despite its revenue falling, though it seems Intel is barely even registering its existence on that front. At least, that's how it's presenting the situation to its investors anyway…
And when you're talking directly to the people pumping money, or prospectively pumping money into your coffers you're always going to dial back the threat the competition poses.
But what Raja Koduri is talking about regarding Intel's software ecosystem is actually rather fascinating. Despite almost fighting a war on four fronts, creating different architectures for its CPU, GPU, AI, and FPGA strategies, Intel is looking to create a unified API for developers to use when creating software for Intel products.
That's a smart move as it aims to make working for Intel hardware as simple as possible for software developers.
"We've got to have one developer experience," Koduri says. "Today we sometimes make working with Intel like working with ten different companies."
But with the oneAPI project Intel is creating almost a one-stop shop for developers, but also one that's open – something AMD regularly touts as a pillar of its own software strategy – and without the proprietary nature that some decry Nvidia for.
"We're committed to open standards," says Koduri," open for all, and Intel has the best open source practices in the industry. We are the number one contributor to the Linux kernel stack."
So while the shade might seem a little strong, the proffered software updates look like an interesting prospect for anyone hoping to work with Intel. And that means any products built around its hardware – maybe a high-end discrete graphics card getting released next year, for instance – will have a serious level of support from day one.

CD8 (ang. cluster of differentiation 8) to błonowa glikoproteina o masie cząsteczkowej 13,5 kDa będąca koreceptorem cząsteczki TCR. CD8 wiąże się z białkami głównego układu zgodności tkankowej klasy I (MHC klasy I). Cząsteczka CD8 jest dimerem, a każda z podjednostek (CD8α i CD8β) jest kodowana przez osobny gen. U człowieka obydwa geny CD8 są zlokalizowane na chromosomie 12. CD8 występuje przede wszystkim na limfocytach T cytotoksycznych, a także na komórkach dendrytycznych, komórkach NK oraz tzw. podwójnie dodatnich tymocytach. W odróżnieniu od cząsteczki CD4, której ekspresja jest zachowana w przypadku białaczek wywodzących się z limfocytów T, CD8 zwykle jest tracona przez komórki nowotworowe.

Struktura
CD8 należy do nadrodziny białek immunoglobulinopodobnych. Dimer występujący na powierzchni komórek zwykle składa się z podjednostki α i podjednostki β, ale niektóre komórki wykazują obecność mniej powszechnego dimeru CD8α-CD8α. CD8 zawiera także fragment błonowy oraz krótki fragment wewnątrzcytoplazmatyczny. Zewnątrzkomórkowa część CD8 ma strukturę domeny immunoglobulinowej IgV.

Funkcja
Rolą CD8 jest wiązanie cząsteczek MHC klasy I, co z jednej strony stabilizuje kontakt pomiędzy limfocytem T cytotoksycznym i komórką docelową a z drugiej wspomaga aktywację limfocytu poprzez wzmocnienie szlaków sygnałowych biegnących od receptora TCR.

If you drink alcohol on a regular basis? Are you consuming more today than you were three to five years ago? Were you drinking more five years ago than the five years before that?
Alcoholism is a progressive disease. What this means is that for people who drink regularly, five years from now you most likely be drinking even more than you do now. Do you feel that you are in this situation? If so, it may be time for you to take some action and get yourself some help.
Unquestionably, there are people who can consume alcohol regularly and would not feel they are a problem drinker. Only you can make that determination for yourself. While others may say you have a problem, it won't be of help unless you come to that realization for yourself.
When alcohol is gone as a part of your life, there will be noticeable changes in you physical and mentally. Pains that you may have associated with getting older will become less pronounced or will simply go away. That's not to say that there are o age-related pains. However, some of the pains that you thought were age-related were in reality, related to you drinking. When alcohol is gone from your life, you will also feel more energized. You will also save a significant amount of money. Alcoholic products can be quite expensive.
Another significant benefit from removing alcohol from your life is that you will sleep better at night. Of course, drinking alcohol can help you get to sleep faster, but you go into a deeper sleep. When this happens, you are more likely awake in the middle of the night. Once you stop drinking, your sleep will become more balanced. You will sleep more naturally and your sleep will be more rejuvenating.
Many people believe that they can cut back on their alcohol consumption. However, they are mistaken. They may have success for a short time, but they tend to return to their prior level of drinking. Very often, it comes back with a vengeance too. When that happens, they begin drinking even more they did before they tried to cut back.
If you find that you can admit to having a problem with drinking alcohol, you must also realize that you need to give it up for good. There is no going back. There must be acceptance that it has control over you. That acceptance can form the foundation for giving it up; quitting for good. Nothing is more important than taking the proper measures to insure, as much as possible that you never to go back to it. If you do acknowledge that you have a problem with alcohol or other substances, there is help available, now.

Whipple's procedure is the treatment of choice for pancreatic and periampullary malignancies. Preoperative histological confirmation of malignancy is frequently unavailable and some patients will subsequently be found to have benign disease. Here, we review our experience with Whipple's procedure for patients ultimately proven to have benign disease. The medical records of all patients who underwent Whipple's procedure during a 15-year period (1987–2002) were reviewed; 112 patients underwent the procedure for suspected malignancy. In eight cases, the final histology was benign (7.1%). One additional patient was known to have benign disease at resection. The mean age was 50 years (range: 30–75). The major presenting features included jaundice (five), pain (two), gastric outlet obstruction (one), and recurrent gastrointestinal haemorrhage (one). Investigations included ultrasound (eight), computerised tomography (eight), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (seven; of these, four patients had a stent inserted and three patients had sampling for cytology), and endoscopic ultrasound (two). The pathological diagnosis included benign biliary stricture (two), chronic pancreatitis (two), choledochal cyst (one), inflammatory pseudotumour (one), cystic duodenal wall dysplasia (one), duodenal angiodysplasia (one), and granular cell neoplasm (one). There was no operative mortality. Morbidity included intra-abdominal collection (one), anastomotic leak (one), liver abscess (one), and myocardial infarction (one). All patients remain alive and well at mean follow-up of 41 months. Despite recent advances in diagnostic imaging, 8% of the patients undergoing Whipple''s procedure had benign disease. A range of unusual pathological entities can mimic malignancy. Accurate preoperative histological diagnosis may have allowed a less radical operation to be performed. Endoscopic ultrasound–guided fine needle aspirate (EUS-FNA) may reduce the need for Whipple's operation in benign pancreaticobiliary disease in the future.
