Archaeology Today:
Challenges, Approaches, Ethics
21st Archaeology & Theory Symposium
Date: 22nd of April 2014 (deadline abstract submission: February 28th)
Venue: Rijksdienst Cultureel Erfgoed (RCE), Amersfoort
Sponsored by ARCHON and the RCE
Stichting Archaeological Dialogues invites you to participate in a one-day forum aiming at highlighting the changing position(s) of archaeology, both in academia and in the private sector, within the contemporary socio-political context. The challenges we are facing are multifaceted and complex, with impact on archaeology as a discipline but also archaeology as a practice – including of course its practitioners! These challenges concern our relationship with the state apparatuses, with society but also with our own attitudes and responses to inescapable ethical dilemmas of practicing archaeology in rapidly-changing socio-political circumstances. How are we poised to address these challenges and where do we aim to be in the next few decades?
The present symposium aims to provide a forum for debating ideas and solutions on issues that most of us feel directly irrespective of disciplinary subdivision or field of practice. Potential contributors are asked to submit an abstract of ca. 250 words to ArchaeologicalDialogues@yahoo.com by February 28th 2014, indicating also with which theme their proposed topic is connected. We invite contributions on the following themes:
Archaeology and policy: challenges, responses, future outlook
Overhauls in public policies concerning the funding of excavations, archaeological research, teaching at universities as well as the dissemination of research (e.g. open-access publishing) affect us directly. Often this has severe repercussions, creating an environment of (professional) uncertainty and of shrinking importance of the discipline within universities. Policy-makers can have an impact on the paths that research takes. Should there be a concerted attempt to highlight, from an archaeologist's point of view, potential disadvantages if such can be demonstrated? How can open access affect the quality of publishing? Are there ethical issues associated with broadening access to (raw) data? How can research be affected if the required outlet of publishing is in open access, when there are often significant associated costs?
Engaging the public: responsibilities, responses to problems, approaches
How should we aim to engage society with archaeology, as a source of valuable experience and powerful knowledge? Perhaps 'catching' the attention of the public should not be our responsibility? Nowadays it is becoming increasingly evident that 'popular science' magazines, websites and television have gained impetus among the wider public, casting aside more legitimate sources of learning about the past. Is it possible for professional archaeology to engage with and 'compete' for public attention with science fiction/highly popularized accounts of the past offered by non-archaeologists? Community archaeology would provide the affirmative answer, it would seem. What are the ethical dilemmas, however, in delegating the excavation of sites to amateur archaeologists (pensioners and schoolchildren) when many professional archaeologists are frequently unemployed or are forced to choose a different career?
Ethics in the practice of archaeology
In an era where so much of our emphasis has been on building a sound theoretical framework and codes of good practice, often geared on 'decolonizing archaeology', how can there be such an overt discordance between practice and theory? This is an issue often seen in situations of armed conflict. Within the past decade we have been thrust into situations that are ethically, politically and legally complex. As a professional body, we archaeologists appear to be lacking the means to address these dilemmas. How can the broader archaeological community be engaged in an open dialogue? Should we be envisaging an all-encompassing ethical code of praxis or should such decisions rest with the conscience of individuals?
Date: 22nd of April 2014

Running camps are a staple for many top scholastic teams, and the market has expanded to adult runners wanting to improve. Often, however, the weeklong time commitment is too much for Type-A runners who are typically involved in a hundred and one other activities as well.
With that in mind, Greg McMillan came up the idea of the Running Getaway in Boulder, CO, in June; a four-day retreat for runners in one of America's running meccas while being inspired and educated and improving their own running.
"We conceived of the Getaway as a vacation for runners, not a running camp," said McMillan, who felt it came off exactly the way he had envisioned it. The Getaway was a limited enrollment concept, to provide the maximum one-on-one interaction between participants and clinicians. "We realized that next year we can handle more" than the half dozen who attended this time, said McMillan. "But we'll always keep it small."
The weekend opened at a reception with Lorraine Moller, who brought her Olympic bronze medal and allowed each participant to hold it. This inspiration carried over for the next three days when they did guided runs on some of Boulder's famous training trails—Boulder Creek, Mesa, Reservoir, and Magnolia Road. "Now they can name drop to their friends," said McMillan.
To fuel these workouts, meals were at some of the best restaurants in Boulder. "We wanted the participants to feel like they were on a vacation, not going away to a training camp," McMillan said.
Things weren't simply eating and running, however. Olympian Todd Williams gave a presentation on what it takes to become an elite runner, and then stayed the rest of the weekend to participate in the group runs. Attendees got training ideas from McMillan and University of Colorado assistant coach Jay Johnson. They also joined in a larger presentation by Nobby Hashizume of the Lydiard Foundation on the training principles of the late New Zealand coach, who did a similar clinic himself a year ago.
Part of another day was devoted to personalized gait analysis and shoe fittings at Fleet Feet Sports, one of the sponsors of the Getaway. This was one of Boulder's rare rainy days, and the participants were offered the option of skipping the planned run to go shopping in town, but the vote was unanimous to head out to Boulder Reservoir. That dedication was rewarded with an invitation to Moller's birthday party that evening.
Following a Sunday long run where they encountered several elite runners, including Jorge Torres, everyone relaxed by watching the Prefontaine Classic on TV before returning home to the realities of training amidst everyday life.
"We were absolutely thrilled with how it went," said McMillan a few days later. Plans have already been made for next year, when the Getaway will be held later in the month. In addition, a similar Getaway will be held in McMillan's hometown of Austin, TX, in mid-February, to "give people from cold-weather climates a chance to do some warm training during the winter."
Information on next year's getaways is available at www.runninggetaway.com.

Q: Looping through a CSV file and storing line value in a variable C# I want to cycle through a single columned CSV of emails and store them in a variable that can be used to make an API call.  So the first email in the CSV would be stored in a variable, the api call would be made, the response would be stored in database and then the second email would be called.  Any help on this would be much appreciated.  Some of the code I have left out as it contains my api key and information.
    private string CreateRequest(string queryString)
    {
        string UrlRequest = requestUrl + ReadEmail() + queryString;
        return UrlRequest;
    }

  private string[] ReadEmail()
   {
        new StreamReader("App_Data/list.csv");
         {
          foreach  (var email in Emails) {
           string line = email.ReadToEnd();
           string[] emails = line.Split(',');
           return Emails;
         }
       }
     }

A: You need to call your reading function first and then call your api for each value retrieved:
private static void YourApiCall(string email)
{
   //...
}

private static void RunApiWithEmailsFrom(string file)
{
    System.IO.File.ReadLines(file).ToList().ForEach(YourApiCall);

Russians will be supplanted by the American race – Max Handel's forecast
The world-famous Max Gödel said with confidence that "the Russian people are a long-suffering nation that will finally find its happiness and prosperity ." Is everything in this prophecy so smooth? Let's find out the truth of these words.
The future of the Russian state does not allow many famous minds of mankind to sleep peacefully. The most interesting even for those who have never even come to our country. One of these was at one time, the American Mac Handel (years of life 1865-1919).
Why is Max Handel famous?
To begin with, this is his pseudonym, in fact his name is Karl Ludwig von Grashof.
He was the founder of the Rosicrucian brotherhood;
He wrote the book "The Cosmo-Concept of the Rosicrucians, or Mystical Christianity". It was this book that was considered a textbook on Christian metaphysics.
He also wrote two other famous books: Esoteric Principles of Health and Healing and Blavatsky and the Secret Doctrine.
He taught the people esoteric Christianity, as he assumed that in the near future all nations would unite in one huge brotherhood.
Max Handel's Predictions
In his book about the Rosicrucians, the author plunged into the origins of the universe. In this edition one can find a clear description of how man has evolved, as well as his composition and development.
This book also contains several predictions.
The author said that when our era ends, the Highest Initiate will descend to people. He will come with a mission to unite all the peoples of the world. This will initiate a new race. After that, a new era in the development of mankind will come.
About the fate of the Russians
The prediction about which I wrote above is interpreted by many in different ways, but everyone agrees that a new race will come out of the Slavs. But again, not everything is so simple.
What exactly does the prophecy say? " Russians and Slavs as a whole will reach the highest point of spiritual development, which will open the way for them further ." But then the author writes that the great and joyful world will not last long.
It is the Slavic race that will serve as the beginning of the formation of the last seventh race of the Aryan era, and it will be the last, and also close the 5th era.
When the 6th era begins, this race will be replaced by a nation that will come out of the USA.
As a result, we can conclude that the prediction about the mighty Russian people is nothing more than a snatched phrase from the text, which conveys the prophecy of a short period of time, and which as a whole does not give a general picture of the future.

Life is our journey towards the life we truly desire for our only limitations are the ones we envision as real.
Self empowerment breaks the barriers of bullying. It's the power of our positive actions that inspire our passion to stop the negative influences of others from controlling our lives.
Our feelings of love and the passion it ignites in our spirit will help us break the barriers of the abuse inflicted upon us by others.
Bullies create atmospheres of prejudice to weaken our positive feelings of harmony, but we can breakdown their barriers by using our unique and diverse backgrounds to create positive changes that benefit us all.
Bullies create atmospheres of abuse to weaken our positive feelings of love, but we can breakdown their barriers with the feelings of love we have for ourselves and others.
Bullies create atmospheres of fear to weaken our feelings of success, but we can breakdown their barriers by instead of dwelling on our fear of possible failure, we focus on the positive changes our successes will bring into our lives.
Bullies create atmospheres of negativity to weaken our feelings of happiness, but we can breakdown their barriers with the positive energy happiness brings into our lives.
Dreams are the birth of great achievements.
Help teach our children to realize their power and abilities to take positive actions to stop the negative influences of others from controlling their lives.
Feeling different doesn't mean we're not as valuable as others. We can choose to feel left out, we can choose to feel inferior, or we can choose to appreciate our unique and special beauty.


Sofia and I met my sister and her boyfriend in Bangkok, together we crossed the border into Myanmar and celebrated Christmas and New Year's Eve together. After two weeks, Marie-Luise and Richard left and the tow of us kept traveling around the country on motorcycle.
After a week in India, Sofia and I flew into Bangkok and stayed with our new American friends, the Quinley family, who run a Thai NGO. On December 22, my sister Marie-Luise and her boyfriend Richard came to visit us – the plan was to spend Christmas and New Year's Eve as a group of four in Myanmar. We picked them up from the Bangok airport, had dinner together at the Quinley's house and took a night bus to Mae Sot, close to the Thai-Myanmarese border. Then we spend two nights in the area of Pha-An, where we celebrated Christmas, rented motorcycles and explored the area.
We then continued to Yangon. In the biggest city of Myanmar, we split up: my sister and Richard went to Bagan and from there took the ferry to Mandalay. Sofia and I went straight to Mandalay and spent some time recovering from the past few weeks which were quite intense.
When they arrived in Mandalay, we rented motorcycles and drove east. Here are the pictures of a 7-day round trip, including our private little New Year's Eve party at a campfire within a small monastery complex. We had an awesome time together!
My sister and Richard flew from Mandalay to Bangkok and then back home again. For them, it was just a two-week trip, but our 8-months journey continued. Before we started our long river expedition in the south, we wanted to do another motorcycle tour in central and eastern Myanmar. This time we went on a 12-day trip and drove deep into Chin State. On the way we passed the temples and pagodas of Bagan, visited an abandoned wooden monastery, visited the Chin people and took pictures of their elderly woman, who at very young age got their faces tattooed as part of a cultural ritual that is about to die out.
On January 21, Sofia and I took the train from Mandalay to Yangon where we picked up our new inflatable expedition canoe and got ready for our river trip on the Tanintharyi River (Great Tenasserim).

There are 120 markers in the Colored Cemetery on Mill Hill, traditionally used for the burial of people of color, as of July 2004.
The first mention of the Mill Hill cemetery was in the Nantucket Registry of Deeds, Proprietors Records, Vol. 1, p. 228, 29th day of fifth month, 1805: "Voted that the Black People may fence in one acre of land where their Burying Place is and that the lot layers measure it to them." 3rd day of sixth month, 1805: "Then measured where the Black People's Burying Place is: from a rock to the southwest of where they have buried eastward 12 1/2 rods; from thence northward 12 1/2 rods; from thence westward 12 1/2 rods; from thence to the southward 12 1/2 rods to said rock; containing about one acre which was granted to the Black People to fence in for a Burying Place by the Proprietors as by a vote on record will appear."
From this we know that by 1805 this part of the common landland was already used as a burial site and it was granted by the Proprietors (not the town meeting or selectmen) to the "Black People," not to a church or other organization.
The first recorded reference is to "the Black People's Burying Place." A deed written two years later in 1807 for an adjacent piece of land refers to the cemetery as "the Burying Ground that Belongs to the Black People or People of Colour." It is often marked simply "Burying Ground" on plats and maps. Town records of burials and maintenance refer to it as "Colored Cemetery." On modern maps, it is usually referred to as "Mill Hill Cemetery."
Recently, a new marker was placed in at the site to honor it.
At the April 23, 2008, meeting of the Nantucket Board of Selectmen, it was decided to officially designate the cemetery at Mill Hill as the "Colored Cemetery" and officially named the "Founder's Cemetery." Town Counsel had recommended adding "Historic" before the name "Colored Cemetery," but the stakeholders had voiced their displeasure with including the term "historic" because they felt it was caving to political correctness and the board agreed.

Tell us your Willie P Bennett stories. (click here) » Down and out in Fernie
Doug Snelling New Zealand
I used to play in a Southern Alberta folk act called PlainsFolk out of Lethbridge/Fort MacLeod with Maureen Chambers in the early 80's. I knew about Willie from the gigs I'd seen him play in Southern Ontario and through his albums, so when we had the chance to share the bill with him in Fernie we jumped at the chance. We all stayed at the hosts house. Tjhe club used a small church basement as a venue. I remember that Willie was sober then (he didn't want any of our pre-set schnapps) and he was also pretty down on his luck. His next gig was somewhere north of Vancouver and even with the proceeds from the show he was short the bus fare so we gave him our share along with a new set of strings. It was the least we could do for one of the greatest Canadian singer songwriters ever. Maureen has been at the helm of the South Country Fair festival and in later years Wille was one of the headliners more than once. A true legend.
Jean Vancouver
My friend Duane was a busker for many years on the streets of Vancouver. One day he was playing "Willie's Diamond Joe" after which a fellow who'd been listening asked him he'd written the song. Duane said, "No, it's a Willie P Bennett song." The guy asked Duane if he'd like to see Willie play live, and Duane said he would, so the fellow gave him a ticket to a show that night at the Town Pump. Duane went to the show and it turned out the fellow who gave him the ticket was Willie!

Willie and I both frequented Anne Grindstaff's Change of Pace café upstairs on Talbot Street in London ON in the mid 1980's. He seemed to me a happy sprite who played the bars and planned extensive touring trips which hung on only bits of a chance. I love his songs and the memories that they pull together of the music and musicians that I knew and know now as well.


Yesterday I watched Cision's webinar on Social Media ROI. I guess webinars act as an all-singing all-dancing white paper, promoting thought leadership whilst simultaneously advertising your wares in a more interactive way (there was a Q & A session at the end). Happily, Cision didn't go for the hard-sell, and it was actually pretty informative.
The comments about Twitter were particularly useful. It seems the number of Twitter followers you have has fast become synonymous with the number of Facebook friends you had at uni; breaking through that all important 1000 threshold might make you look popular online, but confirmed 200 "Attendees" on your 21st birthday Facebook event doesn't remotely translate to 200 of your nearest and dearest incarnate on the day (luckily, as my card was behind the bar).
The same goes in the Twittersphere and corporate accounts. It doesn't actually matter how many Twitter followers your company's account has, as a high number of Twitter followers does not necessarily equal a higher number of X sold (subscriptions in our case).
I guess it depends how a company chooses to use Twitter, and who it is they are targeting.Twitter can definitely be used as an effective B2C tool for customer services. It's somehow comforting to think there's a human responding from the vast faceless corporation that is @Starbucks. I think this is great, and if our subscribers chose to tweet us a problem rather than email, we'd be sure to respond (although providing detailed technical support in 140 characters would be a challenge).
Since taking over the Twitter account, however, I quickly realised that, for Exact Editions at least, it's much more effective as a B2B marketing channel than B2C. We provide a platform for 100s of magazines, and we can see that, say, Jazzwise fans aren't going to talk jazz in a forum of thousands of subscribers to different titles; it'd fall on deaf ears, and social media is supposed to be, well, social, not a monologue.
And this is a much more accurate KPI – we know we're on the right tracks when others in the profession are engaging with our views and perpetuating them, adding to them, refuting them, and generally causing that all important "Buzz" or "Chatter", that leads people back to www.exacteditions.com to work with us.

You usually have to pay council tax if you're 18 or over and own or rent a home, but there is a number of exemptions and discounts available too. You'll also get the same discount if no-one else in your home counts as an adult – for example, if you're a single parent and have children under the age of 18.
What is the difference between single mother and single parent?
Single, defined by the IRS, is designed for the single PERSON, not single PARENT. But while their feelings are extremely valid, any mom who is doing more than her fair share of 50 percent of a two person job, should be considered a single mother.
How do single moms survive financially?
Six financial tips for single moms
Earn like your life depends on it. The vast majority of single moms raise their kids with little or no financial or logistical help from their children's fathers.
Get real about what you can afford.
Pay off debt — for good.
Protect yourself and your children.
Save for the short- and long-term.
Set big goals.
How do I start my career as a single mom?
But how can a single mom rebuild a career while unemployed ? Here's some suggestions to follow:
Ø Start to research resources.
Ø Cultivate your network and ask for support.
Ø Make Your Job Search a Priority.
Ø Take Care of Yourself.
Ø Pick a path that suits you:
Working in a place with flexible hours or day care services.
How can I get a council house fast?
The eligible people need to fill the form and wait for the council's allocation. You can apply to the local housing register to increase your chances of getting accommodation. There are also options to get such a dwelling at a lower rent (70 to 80% of market rate).
How much benefit does a single mother get?
2020/21 weekly amount: Up to £58.90 for single people aged 24 or under, up to £74.35 for single people aged 25 or over, £116.80 for couples and civil partners (both aged 18 or over). There are extra amounts if you are disabled, a carer or a pensioner. How to apply: Phone or claim online via Gov.uk.
How much rent help can I get?
Current maximum rates of Rent Assistance range from $62.13 per fortnight for single people (no children) in shared accommodation to $123.76 per fortnight for couples with three or more children.
How many hours can you work to claim housing benefit?
Can a single father apply for housing?
The US Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides the best housing assistance program for single parent low income families. If you do not qualify, many States offer Rental Assistance programs in geared-to-income housing complexes if you qualify.
How do single parents start over?
It is pretty challenging to start anew as a single parent, and I highly recommend the following:
Make friends.
Lean on existing friends/family.
Prioritize your health.
Stop doing extra stuff that doesn't matter and only serves to stress you out.

James De Lancey
James De Lancey (November 27, 1703 – July 30, 1760) served as chief justice, lieutenant governor, and acting colonial governor of the Province of New York.
De Lancey was born in New York City on November 27, 1703, the first son of Étienne de Lancy and Anne, a daughter of Stephanus Van Cortlandt. His brother, Oliver De Lancey, became a senior Loyalist officer in the American War of Independence, joining General Howe on Staten Island in 1776, and raising and equipping De Lancey's Brigade, three battalions of 1,500 Loyalist volunteers from New York State. His sister Susannah Delancey (1707–1771) became the wife of Admiral Sir Peter Warren.
James went to England for his schooling, and to Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, where he was tutored by future Archbishop of Canterbury Thomas Herring, before studying law at the Inner Temple, London.[1] Having been admitted to the bar in 1725, he returned to New York to practice law and enter politics.

Nurse Shark

These bottom dwelling sharks are usually yellowish-tan to dark brown and, as adults, average around 7.5 to 8 feet long and over 200 pounds (Rosa et al. 2006). They are nocturnal, scouting the sea bottom for crustaceans, mollusks and stingrays during the night before returning to their preferred cave or crevice where they will often lay together in groups to sleep during the day (Compagno et al. 2005). Nurse sharks are not aggressive, but there are attacks on record, that are usually the result of human provocation (ISAF 2018).
Order – Orectolobiformes
Family – Ginglymostomatidae
Genus – Ginglymostoma
Species – cirratum
The term "nurse" probably derived from "Nusse", the common name originally applied to catsharks of the family Scyliorhinidae, to which G.cirratum was originally thought to belong. In Caribbean waters, the nurse shark is still often referred as "tiburon gato", or cat-shark (Castro 2000).
Other common names used to refer to this shark include:
carpet shark (English)
cat shark (English)
atlantinpartahai (Finnish)
dormeur (French)
ammenhai (German)
squalo nutrice (Italian)
amerika-tenjikuzame (Japanese)
lixa (Portuguese)
lambaru (Portuguese)
barroso (Portguese)
bañay (Spanish)
con barbillas (Spanish)
gata común (Spanish)
gata manchada (Spanish)
Importance to Humans
Historically, nurse sharks were targetted for their liver oil and for their skin which yields high quality leather (Compagno et al. 1984). At present, there is not a commercial fishery for this species. Regionally, Nurse sharks are still marketed for their fins, meat, and skin, particularly in Panama, Brazil, Venezuela, and the Caribbean. In other areas, nurse sharks are caught and killed by fishermen as they are considered a nuisance animal that takes bait intended for other species. In the Lesser Antilles, where nurse sharks often raid fish traps, they are considered a pest. In the United States commercial fishery, they are often caught as by-catch but are released alive (Rose et al. 2006).
Danger to Humans
Nurse sharks are not generally aggressive and usually swim away when approached. However, some unprovoked attacks on swimmers and divers have been reported. If disturbed, they may bite with a powerful, vice-like grip capable of inflicting serious injury. In some instances, the jaws lock and can only be released using surgical instruments. The frequency of bites has increased in recent years as a result of ecotourism feeding operations (ISAF 2018).
IUCN Red List Status: Data Deficient
The IUCN list Nurse Sharks as data deficient. It is not an endangered species; however, its abundance in the littoral waters of Florida has decreased in past decades. The presence of this species in areas with constant anthropogenic activity make it susceptible to disturbance. Because of its relatively docile nature, swimming with, handling, and feeding nurse sharks is popular with ecotourism operators.
In the Eastern Pacific, populations have declined precipitously. In the southern-most ranges of Brazil, the nurse shark is considered locally extinct.
The effects of interactions with humans in coastal waters are unknown, but nursery areas are now limited to remote regions, suggesting an association. Identification and protection of these areas, coupled with further research on the biology of the nurse shark, is needed to provide effective conservation measures (Rosa et al. 2006).
> Check the status of the nurse shark at the IUCN website.
The IUCN is a global union of states, governmental agencies, and non-governmental organizations in a partnership that assesses the conservation status of species.
World distribution for the nurse shark. Map © Chondrichthyan Tree of Life
The nurse shark is common in the Atlantic, in the coastal tropical and sub-tropical waters. The Eastern Pacific population has recently been described as a separate species (Ginglymostoma unami). Its distribution ranges from Cape Verde to Gabon, Rhode Island to Southern Brazil (Compagno et al. 2005). Some individuals have been reported in the Gulf of Gascogne in southwest France, as well. This species is locally very common in shallow waters throughout the West Indies, south Florida and the Florida Keys.
The nurse shark is a nocturnal animal that rests on sandy bottoms or in shallow-water caves and rock crevices during the day. They occasionally occur in groups of up to 40 individuals, where they can be seen lying close together, sometimes piled upon one another (Compagno et al. 1984). Nurse sharks are active during the night, often swimming near the bottom or clambering across the sea floor, using their muscular pectoral fins as limbs (Compagno et al. 2005). Large juveniles and adults are usually found around deeper reefs and rocky areas at depths of 3-75 meters (10-246 ft) during the daytime moving into shallower waters of less than 20 meters (65 ft) after dark. Juveniles are generally found around shallow coral reefs, grass flats or mangrove islands in 1-4 meters (3-13 ft) of water (Castro 2000). Nurse sharks show a strong preference for specific resting sites, repeatedly returning to the same caves and crevices after nocturnal activity (Compagno 1984).
Distinguishing Characteristics
Nurse shark (Ginglymostoma cirratum). Illustration courtesy FAO, Species Identification and Biodata
1. Mouth near tip of snout has nasal barbels on either side
2. First and second dorsal and anal fins are broadly rounded
3. The second dorsal fin is slightly smaller than the first
4. There is no distinct lower lobe on the caudal fin
5. Eyes are very small
6. First dorsal fin originates well behind the pectoral fins and over or behind the origin of the pelvic fins
Nurse sharks have two spineless, rounded dorsal fins with the first larger than second, and one anal fin. The origin of the first dorsal fin is over the origin of the pelvic fin. The caudal fin is more than ¼ of the animal's total length (Compagno et al. 2005).
The sub-terminal mouth is well in front of the eyes, the spiracles are minute, and moderately long barbels reach the mouth (Compagno et al. 2005). Nasoral grooves are present, but there is no perinasal groove.
Adult nurse sharks generally range from light tan to dark brown in color. Juveniles up to 55 cm (22 in) have small black spots, with an area of lighter pigmentation surrounding each spot, covering the entire body. These are bands of lighter and darker pigmentation along the dorsal surface. Juveniles (70-120 cm / 28-48 in) are capable of limited color changes. In a tank experiment small nurse sharks, covered for just a few minutes became considerably lighter than individuals exposed to full sunlight (Castro 2000). Unusually pigmented individuals (e.g. brilliant yellow or milky white) have been reported several times.
Independent dentition of the nurse shark. Image courtesy FAO Species Catalogue (1984) vol. 4 part 1.
Nurse sharks possess an independent dentition, the simplest type of tooth arrangement found in sharks where there is no overlap between teeth. This allows forward movement of replacement teeth that is independent of adjacent teeth in the jaw. (Sharks with imbricate or overlapping dentitions, can only replace teeth when the adjacent "blocking" teeth are also lost). Replacement rates among juveniles are generally faster than for adults. Tooth replacement occurs faster in summer, when water temperatures are higher (Luer et al. 1990).
Size, Age, and Growth
Size at maturity for females is about 230-240 cms and about 210-214 cms for males. Size at birth is in the 27-30 cms (11-12 in) range. Age at maturity for females is 15-20 years and for males 10-15 years. The maximum recorded size of a nurse shark is 308 cm (Rosa et al. 2006).
The nurse shark is a nocturnal predator that feeds mainly on fish, stingrays, mollusks (octopi, squids and clams) and crustaceans. Algae and corals are occasionally found in their stomachs, as well. The nurse shark has a small mouth but its large pharynx allows it to suck in food items efficiently. This system probably allows the species to prey on small fish that are resting at night, but that are too active for the sluggish nurse shark to catch during the day. Heavy-shelled conchs are flipped over, and the snail extracted by use of suction and teeth (Rosa et al. 2006).
Young nurse sharks have been observed resting with their snouts pointed upwards and their bodies supported off the bottom on their pectoral fins. Some suggest this posture may provide a false shelter for crabs and small fishes that the shark can ambush and eat (Compagno et al. 1984).
Egg cases from nurse shark. Photo © George Burgess
The nurse shark is an ovoviviparous species. This means that embryonic development occurs in an egg case within the mother's ovary. The embryo has its own yolk sac, which is absorbed during development, and there is no placental nourishment from the mother. The nurse shark has a biennial reproductive cycle. After mating, gestation takes five to six months (Compagno et al. 2005). The young are born in late spring/early summer with litter of 20-30 pups. Each pup measures 27-30 cm (10.6-11.8 inches) total length (Rosa et al. 2006). It takes another eighteen months for the ovaries to produce enough mature eggs for the next breeding cycle. In the waters of the Florida Keys and the Dry Tortugas archipelagos, the reproductive behavior of the nurse shark has been regularly observed and studied.
Its copulatory behavior is among the best documented among sharks. Males approach females that are resting on the sea floor or are swimming just above it. The male then bites one of the female's pectoral fins simultaneously pushing, trying to turn her onto one side (Compagno et al. 2005). In this position it is easier for a male to insert his clasper, vigorously bending the lower portion of his body towards the female's cloaca.
A large number of males generally try to mate with a single female, often leading to females bearing numerous scars and bruises from male bites. Females frequently try to avoid contact with males by swimming in very shallow water, where they can bury their pectoral fins in the sand (Castro 2000).
There are no species that regularly prey on nurse sharks. However, some larger sharks are known to occasionally feed on them. Remains of nurse sharks have been found in lemon shark and tiger shark stomachs, and attacks on nurse sharks by bull sharks and great hammerhead sharks have been observed (Castro 2000).
Nematodes have been observed in the gills of nurse sharks in captivity at the New York Aquarium, U.S.
The nurse shark was first described by Bonnaterre (1788), as Squalus cirratus. The current scientific combination, Ginglymostoma cirratum was first assigned by Muller and Henle in 1841. Gynglymostoma is derived from the Greek words "gynglimos" = hinge and "stoma" = mouth. The species name cirratum is translated from Latin as curl. Synonyms used to refer to this species in past scientific literature are Squalus punctulatus Lacepède 1800, Squalus punctatus Bloch & Schneider 1801, Squalus argus Bancroft 1832, Ginglymostoma fulvum Poey 1861, and Ginglymostoma caboverdianus Capello 1867.
Similarities in the reproductive cycle and molecular phylogenetic data indicate a close relationship between the nurse shark family Ginglymostomatidae and the whale shark family Rhincodontidae.

How To Transfer a Car Title in New Jersey
In New Jersey, whenever someone buys or sells a car, they must transfer the certificate of title to the new owner. The car title, sometimes known as "pink slip", is issued by the Secretary of State from your local New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC). It is a certificate that legally proves the ownership of a vehicle and can be transferred whether the vehicle is new, sold, gifted or inherited.
What is a Car Title?
The certificate of title is a record of the cars lifespan and ownership, including important identifying characteristics. Versions of vehicle titles can vary from state to state, but they all will contain vehicle specifics such as the VIN (vehicle identification number), make, and year of manufacture. It will document mechanical data such as the vehicle weight, motive power, and odometer. The license plate number, the owner's name and address, purchase price, and details of any debts are also included.
Remember to never keep your car title inside your vehicle, but stored somewhere safe.
How Do I Apply for a Car Title?
Car titles can be acquired by visiting the motor vehicle agency in person with the necessary documents. Based on if the title is for your new, used, or an out of state vehicle, knowing what you need to bring to the MVC is essential.
When purchasing new vehicles from a dealership in NJ, they should perform the titling during the sales process. In the case that you did not receive a title upon purchase, you have 10 days to get it titled without facing a penalty fee. You will need to have the Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin (MCO) with a stamp showing it is sales tax satisfied. Some vehicles are exempt from sales tax, but if it is owed you can pay it at the MVC. To apply for titling of financed vehicles, the address and Entity Identification Number (EIN- formerly Corpcode) of the lien holder is required and then the lien holder will be sent the original title. Newer vehicles may also need to meet emission and fuel standards that could be subject to surcharges.
To apply for the title of a pre-owned vehicle you need to bring the previous title to the MVC. The assignment section on the back of the title must be filled out and signed by the former owner. Details include information such as sales price, odometer reading, and seller's name and address.
A car bought out of state by a NJ resident can be titled in NJ with a more detailed process. Be prepared to bring original documents showing evidence of ownership and follow instructions based on if your car is new or used. New cars will need the Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin (MCO). Used car owners must have the VIN and former registration if no title exists. You will also need a mileage statement, NJ insurance card, and NJ driver's license.
Be prepared to pay Title Fees:
$60 for a standard vehicle
$85 for a financed vehicle with one lien
$110 for a financed vehicle with two liens
Replacing a Lost, Stolen or Damaged Title
Circumstances that require a replacement for a vehicle's title are when it goes missing or has been damaged. In most cases, the MVC will issue a duplicate for lost or stolen titles after you submit a request for replacement in person or by mail. You will just need to have your current registration and proof of insurance. Next, fill out the "Application for Duplicate Certificate of Ownership" form and pay a $60 fee. If there is no proof of ownership available, you will need to fill out additional forms.
When there is a lien on the vehicle, the duplicate title will be sent to the lien holder.
A damaged vehicle title can also be replaced at the MVC or by mail. You will need to prepare a written statement describing how it was damaged, along with your name, address and vehicle description such as make, model, and VIN. Include the old title and a $60 replacement fee.
Careful, fines can be issued to a person who knowingly has the original title and requests a duplicate.
If you wish to request a replacement by mail, submit the required information and replacement fee to:
Motor Vehicle Commission
Database Correction Unit
225 E. State Street
Fixing Errors on a Title
Be careful. If there's an error on the title that's your fault, the NJ MVC will charge you $60 to fix it. But if the NJ MVC makes a mistake on the title, corrections are free. Submit a request by mail or at the MVC agency to make corrections to your title. You will need to provide the original title along with proof of the error.
How Do I Apply for a Car Title Transfer?
When you decide to sell your car, you're required to go to your local NJ MVC with the following documents:
Your car title with the back information completed
Proof of your car insurance
Payment for the title transfer fee
Transferring Your Car Title
Anytime a car is bought or sold, the title must be transferred to document the change of ownership. To transfer the certificate of title, a trip to the local Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) is required. You can speed this process along by being prepared with the necessary documents and understanding the process of the buyer and seller's responsibilities beforehand. Be sure to transfer the title within 10 days from the Date of Sale. Otherwise, you'll end up paying a $25 penalty fee.
If there's no lien (a type of property claim, explained in more detail below) on your car, you will apply for a NJ car title transfer in person at a MVC branch. You'll also complete a Sales Tax Stamp at the MVC office, and you are exempt from payment if you bought your car in another state (not NJ) and you were a resident of another state when you bought the car only.
Make sure to bring:
Application for Certificate of Ownership (found on the MVC website)
$60 title transfer fee
Quick Steps for Title Transfer:
The seller needs to sign the reverse side of the title and the bill of sale needs to be filled out with the car buyer's name and address, sale date, odometer reading, purchase price, and signature.
Take the plates off the car you're selling and turn them over to the MVC or transfer them to another car. You can transfer plates to another car, but not to another owner.
Once the title transfer is completed, hand the certificate of title over to the buyer.
The buyer of the car also has some responsibility. They are required to sign the back of the title, provide his/her driver license number (or EIN), and report to an MVC agency to register the car and pick up the plates.
Transferring a Title from an Out of State Vehicle
A part of becoming a New Jersey resident is transferring your car title within 60 days of moving. Bring your ID, original title and current insurance information to the local NJ MVC. If you are leasing or financing a vehicle, fill out the appropriate forms for the title to be released from the lien holder or leasing company to the MVC. When they receive the document you will need to go back to complete the "Application for Certificate of Ownership", apply for registration, and pay the fees. Owners with no liens will be given their titles immediately. Vehicle owners with liens or leases will be given a receipt as the original title is mailed to the lien holders or leasing company.
What Does "Gifting" a Car Mean?
When you give someone a vehicle, like a friend or family member, it's called "gifting". You are required to sign over the title to that person, and the same goes for if someone gifts you a car. Make sure the seller uses the word "GIFT" as the purchase price when filling out the back of the title. Here are the steps you'll want to follow to transfer the title:
Complete the buyer, seller, and vehicle information on the back of the title
Provide an accurate odometer reading at the time of sale
Visit your local MVC office
Pay the car title fees
A car is exempt from sales tax if indicated that it's a gift on the sales tax form.
How Do I Claim an Inherited Car?
In New Jersey, you can use the vehicle up to 30 days after the owner's death without applying for a vehicle title transfer. When you go to the MVC, they'll require proof and an in-person visit to the agency (these requests are not processed by mail). Remember to bring ID, any/all supporting paperwork (i.e. relationship to the owner of the car, will or death certificate), and the completed and signed title.
*Inherited vehicles are exempt from sales tax, but remember to contact the lienholder (if applicable) to see if the lien must be paid off before the title can be transferred.*
If the vehicle was left in a will:
Submit the old title assigned by the executor of the estate and a Surrogate's Short Certificate (this is the person that determines the validity of wills)
Pay the $60 title fee
Apply for a new car registration
Once the transfer is authorized by the MVC, be sure to update your car insurance policy with your new vehicle information.
The NJ MVC website has additional information regarding what happens when someone dies without a will in place.
What Should I Know About Liens and Fees?
A lien is a legal claim of ownership on a car that is contractually set against your personal property. It's a collateral safeguard for the seller in case someone doesn't make the required payments on the car. Once a car loan is paid off, you own the car outright and the lien is removed. Usually, the lienholder will take care of this for you.
When the lien release is signed and mailed to you, make an appointment with your local NJ MVC office. Once you're there, submit the lien release, a completed vehicle title transfer application, and pay the transfer fee. If you opt to mail the documents, keep in mind that there will be additional processing time.
*In New Jersey, if there is no lien, the fee to transfer a title is $60. With a lien, it's $85.*
What Should I know About Sales Tax and Exemptions?
Some cars are exempt from sales tax in the state of New Jersey based on how the vehicle was acquired, how it was used (i.e. commercial), if the car was a gift, etc. Please find the complete list of exempt vehicles on the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission website.

Индустриализм и линии раскола в политической экономии
Вопросы политической экономии. 2019. № 4. С. 78-93.
Гловели Г. Дж.
This article reveals the changes in meaning that the concept of the "classical school in political economy" experienced in the course of nineteenth-century industrialization. The development of liberal Anglo-French political economy is traced in its "optimistic" (Smith, Say) and "pessimistic" (Ricardo, Malthus) versions. An account is provided of the transformation of the liberal school into "orthodoxy", which provided a theoretical justification for economic rivalry accompanied by indifference to the fate of the poor classes (laissez faire, apologetic Ricardianism, "Manchesterism"). Also provided is an account of the split within "orthodoxy", a rift associated with the emergence of the concepts of the inevitability of crises of overproduction (Sismondi) and of the appropriation by capitalists of surplus value (Thompson). Particular attention is devoted to the fundamental difference between Marx's interpretation of "classical political economy" and the concepts of the "classical school" in the bourgeois university tradition, including in Russia. Also noted is the influence exerted by the Saint Simon School on Marxian political economy at its formative stage.

The article is devoted to the influence of Giambattista Vico on Edward Said. It claims, first, that Vico inspired Said to engage in the intellectual-political project of Postcolonial Studies, and second, that Saidian reading of Vico is the most sophisticated, detailed and fresh left interpretation of the great Neapolitan philosopher in the twentieth century.

Sraffa and the Reconstruction of Economic Theory
Vol. 3: Sraffa's Legacy: Interpretations and Historical Perspectives. Houndmills: Palgrave Macmillan, 2013.
Written on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the publication of Piero Sraffa's Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities, the papers selected and contained in this book accounts for the work completed around the two central aspects of his contribution to economic analysis, namely the criticism of the neoclassical (or 'marginalist') theory of value and distribution, and the reconstruction of economic theory along the lines of the Classical approach. Divided into three volumes, the book debates the most fruitful routes for advancements in this field and their implications for applied and policy analysis. The third volume collects papers concerning the interpretation of Sraffa's contribution, its relation with other streams in economic thinking, methodological debates and the history of economic thought or the evolution of his views both in general and on specific themes.
"Soviet Antiquity": Looking for a Cohesive Theory
Ladynin I. A. Humanities. HUM. Basic Research Programme, 2017. No. 161.
The problem basically unanswered is whether the Soviet historiography has ever developed an all-embracing concept of antiquity as a slave-owning society and whether it produced a general scheme of this period at all. Two attempts to create a uniform Marxist concept of "slave-owning antiquity" in 1930-1940s (undertaken by the scholars of GAIMK and by A.V. Mishulin with his followers) failed; a real generalization of ancient history was not achieved before 1980s, when it was perceived (not quite in the manner of Marxist method) as the evolution of rural communities rather than slavery.

The M.I. Tugan-Baranovsky's view on the national factor role of economic development is considered in the article. His relevant works on political economy and the unknown article on anti-Semitism are analyzed. His public activities and memoirs are considered. The contrast between nationalistic ideas and Tugan-Baranovsky's ethical principles based on Kantianism is shown. The distinctions between his theoretical position on the national aspects of economics and positions of K. Marx, F. Engels, V. Sombart and P.B. Struve are shown. The author came to conclusion, that M.I. Tugan-Baranovsky's social views do not include nationalistic elements.
Современная социалистическая утопия: от критического анализа к мобилизации через отрицание
Мусихин Г. И. Полития: Анализ. Хроника. Прогноз. 2011. № 3. С. 143-197.
In the article the author looks into the theoretical prospects of socialist utopia rebirth as the so called horizon line that is impossible to cross, but easy to see as if it were reachable. The author shows that post-Fordism capitalizing and alienating nonmaterial labor has become a real problem for the radical negation in the framework of neo-Marxist utopia since under such conditions any social alternative is in danger of becoming a part of the capitalist reality. Such disciplinary power of the modern capitalist logic generates rejection of the political action as it is rather than a protest. In this situation radical Marxist utopia comes down to the affective negation that cannot become a subject to reflection. Its creators and proponents do not want to find themselves in the capitalist present, aspiring in their expectations into the future that will not grow out of the modern capitalism and will never be capitalism in principle.

The impact of state-controlled banks on the Russian banking sector
Vernikov A. V. Eurasian Geography and Economics. 2012. Vol. 53. No. 2. P. 250-266.
The paper examines the structure, governance, and balance sheets of state-controlled banks in Russia, which accounted for over 55 percent of the total assets in the country's banking system in early 2012. The author offers a credible estimate of the size of the country's state banking sector by including banks that are indirectly owned by public organizations. Contrary to some predictions based on the theoretical literature on economic transition, he explains the relatively high profitability and efficiency of Russian state-controlled banks by pointing to their competitive position in such functions as acquisition and disposal of assets on behalf of the government. Also suggested in the paper is a different way of looking at market concentration in Russia (by consolidating the market shares of core state-controlled banks), which produces a picture of a more concentrated market than officially reported. Lastly, one of the author's interesting conclusions is that China provides a better benchmark than the formerly centrally planned economies of Central and Eastern Europe by which to assess the viability of state ownership of banks in Russia and to evaluate the country's banking sector.

Институт минимальной заработной платы в странах ОЭСР
Вишневская Н. Т. Проблемы рынка труда. WP3. Высшая школа экономики, 2005. № 03.
The paper examines the institute of minimum wage in developed and transition economies and in a number of the developing countries. First of all the institutional mechanism of minimum wage fixing is considered. One of the sections explores the dynamics of absolute and relative levels of minimum wage. The special attention is paid to the impact of the institute of minimum wage on the labour market. The author considers the mechanism of transmission of the minimum wage increases on the employment and unemployment dynamics. The paper also contains the result of the empirical research. The experience of many countries witnesses that large increases in minimum wage levels lead to the stagnation of the employ-ment, especially of the disadvantaged groups. The negative effect is larger for the companies with higher share of labour costs and more active use of unqualified labour, that is small businesses and agricultural enterprises. One of the main conclusions is that the minimum wage is not an effective tool of the poverty reduction as the majority of the recipients live in households of average and upper average income.

Competition impact of market structure: The case of banking services markets in two Russian regions
Anisimova A. I., Muradyan P. A., Vernikov A. V. SSRN Working Paper Series. Social Science Research Network, 2011. No. 1919817.
This empirical paper adds to competition and industrial organization literature by exploring the interplay between industry structure and competitiveness on local, rather than nation-wide, markets. We use micro-level statistical data for banks in two Russian regions (Bashkortostan and Tatarstan) to estimate Herfindahl-Hirschman index, Lerner index, and Panzar-Rosse model. We estimate Panzar-Rosse model in two ways: via the widely used price-equation that accounts for scale effects and then via a revenue-equation that disregards scale effects as suggested by Bikker et al. (2009). We find both regional markets to be ruled by monopolistic competition, although estimation by revenue-equation does not reject monopoly hypothesis for Tatarstan. Existence of sizeable locally-owned and operated institutions does not necessarily lead to higher competitiveness of the given regional market, and the results from non-structural methods of estimation suggest that bank competition in Bashkortostan is stronger than in Tatarstan. Going further away from aggregated analysis we compute Lerner indices in two product segments of Tatarstan – retail and corporate loans – and find that retail segment is significantly more competitive. Local banks exert more market power in corporate loans, while federal branches – in retail loans.

An Optimal Incentive Contract Preventing Excessive Risk-Taking by a Bank Manager
Penikas H. I. Financial Economics. FE. Высшая школа экономики, 2012. No. 03.
The Basel Committee of Banking Supervision initiated a discussion on the most efficient practices to prevent bank managers from excessive risk-taking. This paper proposes a game-theoretical approach, describing the decision-making process by a bank manager who chooses his own level of risk and effort. If the level of risk implies the variability of the future outcome, the amount of effort applied affects the probability of a positive outcome. Although effort is unobserved for the bank's stakeholders, the risk level is under control, and is associated with certain indicators such as capital adequacy ratio or leverage level. The risk-neutral utility function of a bank manager and a binary game outcome of gaining profit or loss for a bank are assumed. Starting from the general incentive contract scheme having the fixed and variable parts of remuneration, it is proposed that differentiating the variable part of remuneration is sufficient to motivate bank managers to make fewer risky decisions. More precisely, the variable part of remuneration (e.g. the share of the bank's profit) needs to be higher in proportion to the higher variance of outcome for the high -risk outcome case to stimulate a bank manager to opt for lower-risk decisions in place of higher-risk situations.

Modeling policy response to global systemically important banks regulation
Penikas H. I., Titova Y. Financial Economics. FE. Высшая школа экономики, 2012. No. 02.
In this paper we elaborate a simple model that allows for the predicting of possible reactions from financial institutions to more stringent regulatory measures introduced by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) in regard to global systemically important banks (G-SIBs). The context is framed by a 2011 BCBS document that proposes higher capital requirements for global systemically important banks. We attempt to analyze bank interactions in an oligopolistic market that is subject to demand constraints on loan amounts and additional loss absorbency requirements introduced by the regulator. We distinguish between the bank's announced funding cost that determines both the loan amount issued and the market interest rate, and the bank's true funding cost that has a direct impact on retained earnings. We conclude that in a two-stage game both banks will announce the highest funding cost, thus reducing the amount of loans granted (in line with the regulator's objective), but at the expense of a higher cost of borrowing established in the market. If the game is repeated, then both banks also choose lower loan amounts in the periods prior to the last one in which the declared funding cost is the lowest possible. It should be noted that the designated outcome also coincides with the findings of the Monetary Economic Department of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.
