Abstract: The use of intertextual elements in the Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein complicates the characters of Victor and the creation allowing for sympathy of the creation. The references to Paradise Lost and Mary Shelley’s version of Genesis put forth her view of a cruel dark world shifting the monster from Victor’s creation to society in our world.
- What is working? I believe I have a strong counterargument that helps further and support my argument.
- One thing I believe I could have done better is used more in text evidence and developed a deeper reading, however I feel as if my argument was not affected by the minimal use of textual evidence.
The Humanization of a Monster
The English idiom “Don’t judge a book by its cover” is very applicable to the world around us. Many people today hide their vast amazing knowledge behind a wall that someone passing by would never suspect. In Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Victor’s creation is judged by his cover and for that reason is an alleged monster. The intertextual evidence used by Mary Shelley in the writing of her “horror classic” complicates and destabilizes the mainstream idea of the creation being a monster. Her comparisons to the characters in Paradise Lost and her rewriting of the Genesis story allow for readers to humanize the creation understand the author’s view of a cruel dark world that shifts the monstrosity from the creation to the society around us.
The monster is humanized in the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley through the use of intertextuality. Throughout the novel, there are many signs of intertextuality. Mary Shelley references the literary works of Paradise Lost and the Genesis story in the bible. These were seen as the monster began to educate himself and explore literature. Through this self-exploration of literature, the story of Frankenstein is further complicated by the intertextuality used by Mary Shelley.
The monster starts to read books he found in a satchel, and began to find similarities between himself and fictional characters. One of the books that he began to read was Paradise Lost by John Milton. Unaware the story was fictional, the monster read the story as factual history. Further reading the story, he sympathized with the character of Satan. The reading of Milton’s Paradise Lost allowed for Victor’s creature to realize that he was a monster. He found similarities between himself and Satan, and began to sympathize with Satan. The sympathy shown by the monster for Satan, humanizes him which furthermore complicates the simple storyline of Frankenstein.
Victor Frankenstein is also seen in the novel to have startling similarities to the characters in Milton’s writing. Victor Frankenstein begins the novel as an innocent happy character. He begins a quest for knowledge and complicated sciences that allow for him to play creator. This “forbidden” knowledge causes him to “fall from grace.” He creates something that he sees as evil and satanic and refuses to claim it. This shows similarities to God in the Paradise Lost story. Victor compassioned with his Satan when he was speaking but could not overcome the monster’s looks. “His words had a strange effect on me. I compassioned him, and sometimes felt a wish to console him; but then I looked upon him, when I saw the filthy mass that moved and talked, my heart sickened, and my feelings were altered to those of horror and hatred. I tried to stifle these sensations; I thought, that I could not sympathize with him, I had no right to withhold from him the small portion of happiness which was yet in my power to bestow” (Shelley 158). Mary Shelley in this excerpt uses the book of Genesis to additionally complicate the story. Victor is the creator with the power to give the monster (Adam) a loving partner (Eve). Victor’s original thought of creating a partner was innocent, just how God never thought that Adam and Eve would sin and betray him by eating the forbidden fruit. The intertextuality of Milton’s story and the book of Genesis complicates the characters of Frankenstein through hidden comparisons and references.
The intertextuality of Paradise Lost in Shelley’s Frankenstein destabilizes the main storyline of the novel. The main storyline of the novel that common Hollywood producers take from the original novel, is that Victor’s monster is a ruthless killer. The comparison of the monster to Satan and Victor to the creator, destabilizes the original storyline by humanizing the monster. This destabilization complicates the original understanding the reader of the book has by shifting the monstrosity from the creation, to the people of society. Mary Shelley’s reference to Paradise Lost changes the depiction of the “monster” to a “creation,” also allowing readers to see the world in Mary Shelley’s dark perspective. Through her writings in Frankenstein, she puts forth her view of a dark, mean world.
Mary Shelley uses the intertextuality of Paradise Lost to show readers that the world she sees is mean and dark. She rewrites the Genesis story to fit her perspective of the twisted world. Victor’s creation is constantly rejected by society and his creator because of the way he looks. Nobody in the novel sees through the appearance of the monster, and looks at the intellectual beauty of him. Victor can be referenced throughout the novel as the “creator,” just as God created Adam. However, in this world, unlike the biblical version, the monster gets no partner and is rejected by its creator. In Milton’s Genesis, Eve played a key role in humanity. According to him, Eve’s sin by taking the apple is what makes us human. After Victor refuses to make another creature, the creation becomes filled with rage that was not previously seen before. The creature was inherently good, but throughout the novel was shown nothing but evil from a “dark” world. Coincidently, all of the wrong doings of the monster, happen at night. The world that Mary Shelley creates in Frankenstein is a cruel and twisted representation of the Genesis story.
It is easy to overlook the intertextuality placed before the reader and say that I, as a writer, am looking too deeply into Frankenstein. People in our world are reluctant to look at monsters in film, as human or good. It is in human nature to use black and white words to describe the world around us. Words like: good, bad, evil, villain, and hero are commonly used in stories. If readers were to overlook Paradise Lost in the novel, then they would view the creature as “evil,” and believe that it deserved the treatment it received. Without the deeper reading of the novel, it is a classic horror script as seen in the Hollywood productions. Mary Shelley would be disappointed if she were to see the reproductions of her novel in film. The comparisons to Paradise Lost and her recreation of the Genesis story in her “horror classic” allow for readers to sympathize with the creation, destabilizing the thought that it is a monster.
When the word Frankenstein comes to mind, the Halloween green skinned, wide eyed, huge monster comes to most people’s mind. The deeper reading of Frankenstein allows for the finding of hidden messages in text. Intertextual elements are used by writers to complicate, compare, and destabilize the upfront plot of a story. Mary Shelley uses Paradise Lost and the Genesis story to humanize the creation allowing for readers to sympathize with him. The character comparison between stories allows for the complication of the plot destabilizing the Hollywood depiction of Victor’s creation and putting forth the author’s view of a dark and cruel world. Based on my analyzation of Frankenstein, the genre of horror should be deeper understood for: who exactly is the “monster”?

https://theeasybeats.wordpress.com/singles/for-my-womansay-that-youre-mine/ The page for “For My Woman” is now online. More singles pages to come!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KG1yuBL3eZc
The Angels front man Doc Neeson’s new single is a cover of Flash and the Pan’s “Walking In The Rain”. The single is Neeson’s first studio recording in 7 years. Doc’s recording was produced by ARIA Award winning producer Brendan Gallagher.
According to the blurb on Doc’s Facebook page:
“When discussions began between RocKwiz producers and Alberts about the iconic Australian songs and suitable performers, the idea of teaming Doc’s mellifluous voice and the speak-style of ‘Walking In the Rain’ was ignited.
“The strength of the song written by George & Harry is dreamlike or trancelike in mood. The lyrics are a stream of consciousness which so masterfully creates a subconscious state of mind. One of the biggest challenges was to get in that state of mind to sing the song,” said Neeson.
“The song is so elegantly, deceptively simple. The motif moves through three chromatically rising and falling notes underpinned by three book-ended chords, then a classic 7, 5 chord turnaround for the chorus. The bass holds the song together. From there it’s all about the vocal. That’s where Doc comes in. Doc has gravitas the equal of the song’s majesty, “said Gallagher.
Along with Neeson’s vocal delivery, Gallagher had a few ideas in the back of his mind that he introduced to the recording of the song.
“I’d thought of using a sample from Jonathan Zwartz’s Shimmer, the first track from his 2013 album The Remembering & Forgetting Of The Air, as the basis of a song. It gives ‘Walking In The Rain’ its meandering intent, its momentum. Blues veteran ‘Continental’ Robert Susz’s (The Dynamic Hepnotics) windy city harmonica is the lace on the curtain.”
Doc Neeson ‘Walking In The Rain’ available now from iTunes.
For this year’s Record Store Day Australia event, Sony Music and Albert Productions will be reissuing the 1967 Australian/New Zealand compilation album The Best of The Easybeats + Pretty Girl. The best of album will join four other classic albums from the Albert Productions productions catalog: Stevie Wright’s debut solo album Hard Road (1974), the Vanda and Young produced self-titled Rose Tattoo (1978) and The Angels’ Face to Face (1978). All albums have been remastered by Don Bartley and are pressed on 180gm vinyl.
Unfortunately for those readers outside of Australia and New Zealand – these albums are only available in Australia and New Zealand. There is no word yet as to whether they will be released post RSD.
Below is the official press release from Alberts News section:
EASYS, STEVIE, ANGELS & TATTS RE-VINYLED!
Posted on 21 Feb 2014
FOUR SEMINAL AUSTRALIAN ALBUMS HEADLINE ALBERT PRODUCTIONS’ VINYL REISSUES SERIES RELEASED SATURDAY APRIL 19TH
Four seminal Australian albums THE EASYBEATS The Best of The Easybeats + Pretty Girl (1967)STEVIE WRIGHT’S Hard Road (1974) THE ANGELS’ Face To Face (1978) and ROSE TATTOO’S Rose Tattoo (1978) headline ALBERT PRODUCTIONS’ vinyl reissues series.
The classic albums, revered and influential from release, are scheduled to be released on high quality, 180 gm vinyl for maximum dynamic and authenticity. Renowned mastering expert Don Bartley painstakingly converted the original analogue tapes to new vinyl masters, on vintage and retooled analogue studio gear.
The albums will be available world-wide through Albert Productions via Sony Music Australia on Record Store Day, April 19.
Enthusiasm for the series was summed up by Angels’ lead singer Doc Neeson.
“I don’t think it was accidental that Face to Face was on the charts for 71 weeks while we toured every part of Australia “said The Angels’ singer Doc Neeson.“People checked us out live then heard that same, roaring dynamic captured on top quality analogue vinyl. On great vinyl the fans could hear the full quality of sound they had experienced at an Angels concert and that excited them.”
‘Good old analogue vinyl’ is back to the future after three decades of consumer fascination with digital technology. As compact disc was introduced in 1982 and mp3 players appeared in 1999, vinyl became the preserve of dedicated music buffs.
Around 2009 however, a new generation of vinyl buyers appeared, attracted by the fullness and ‘warmth’ of analogue sound … and to the 12” album cover art … and to the tactile rituals of placing the record on a turntable … and dropping the stylus into the grooves while reading informative information on the artist and the production of the album.
What was a blip is now a surge.
Ted Albert, Australia’s legendary music visionary and fourth generation scion of the successful Australian music publishers J. Albert & Son, launched Albert Productions in 1964. 2014 marks the venture’s 50th anniversary.
Albert Productions got off to a flying start with a barrage of #1s from Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs. Ted Albert then discovered, fostered and recorded The Easybeats – the first Australian rock group to make international charts.
From 1974 to 1979, with Easybeats guitarists Harry Vanda and George Young songwriting and producing, Albert Productions dominated the Countdown pop era, occupying an amazing 20% of the Australian singles charts – with at least 4 tracks in the Top 20 at any one time.
From the mid-70s onwards, Albert Productions was integral to the growth of Australian pub rock; signing seminal rockers AC/DC, The Angels and Rose Tattoo.
THE EASYBEATS – Best of Easybeats + Pretty Girl – Ted Albert produced the band’s astonishing run of seven Australian Top 10 singles (four of them #1) from 1965-66. After relocating to London, The Easys linked with The Who and The Kinks producer Shel Talmy for “Friday On My Mind” – another Australian #1, Top 10 in the UK and Europe and Top 20 in the USA. Pretty Girl, another prime cut of direct and driven R&B, was also produced by Talmy.
STEVIE WRIGHT – Hard Road – The debut album for The Easybeats singer and teen heart throb, all grown up and battling inner demons. Former Easybeats guitarists Harry Vanda and George Young produced and wrote the biographical title track. Undoubtedly the album’s showcase is the Vanda/Young 11 minute rock suite Evie (Pts 1-3) which traces a relationship from young lust to pensive joy and, finally, soulful heartache. Wright penned 6 tracks, varying from the sunny Life Gets Better to the swagger and scream of Commando Line.
THE ANGELS – Face To Face – is the controlled dementia of urgent guitars, ferocious rhythm, chanted choruses, overlaid by singer Doc Neeson’s incantations of anger and despair. Inspired by the nihilism of German Expressionism; Face To Face mirrored youth disenfranchisement in late-70s Australia. Thirty six years later, the rush of Take A Long Line, the brutal beat of Comin’ Down and the fervent I Ain’t the One still reflect societal alienation and will likely continue to do so forever.
ROSE TATTOO – Rose Tattoo – Formed by virtuoso slide guitarist Pete Wells and produced by former Easybeats Harry Vanda and George Young, Rose Tattoo is an avalanche of hard, heavy, fast, crunching rock ‘n’ roll. Chicago blues and working class boozy roots show through on Rock ‘n’ Roll Outlaw and The Butcher and Fast Eddy. Nice Boys is pure adrenaline, while the irresistible throb and swing of the Top 20 single Bad Boy for Love later influenced the formation of Guns N’ Roses.
ROCKWIZ SALUTES VANDA AND YOUNG IN A SPECIAL EPISODE TO LAUNCH THE NEW SEASON
While The Easybeats had Friday on their mind, RocKwiz have Monday on theirs when the new season launches on Monday March 24 with a special episode saluting Australian songwriters Harry Vanda and George Young.
Season 12 kicks off with a live show recorded at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre in December last year where RocKwiz paid tribute to Alberts writers Vanda and Young – Australia’s most famous songwriting and production team. From The Easybeats to Flash and The Pan, to producing material for The Angelsand AC/DC, Vanda and Young were responsible for some incredible music.
This special episode pays loud and loving tribute to an important slice of our musical history. Joining the delightful Julia Zemiro, charismatic showman Brian Nankervis, beloved human scoreboard Dugald and the RocKwiz Orkestra, are a cavalcade of stars including Doc Neeson (The Angels), Isabella Manfredi (The Preatures), The Basics (the band featuring Wally De Backer aka Gotye), Steve Kilbey, and Gossling to name just a few.
Episode One airs Monday March 24, 9.30pm on SBS ONE

Majority of U.S. companies are making staff work longer since recession
A survey of U.S. and Canadian employers found nearly two thirds are asking their employees to work longer hours since the recession.
And about half of the 300 companies asked expect the trend to continue for another three years.
The worrying trend seems to have been particularly bad for senior and middle managers, according to the Towers Watson survey.
Rest: One in three of respondents said their employees had been taking less time off during the working year
The survey also discovered that it is not only the length of the working day that has been affected, but the amount of time off.
One in three of respondents said their employees had been taking less time off during the working year.
But there was some hope, after half the U.S. companies admitted they knew the strenuous demands on their employees meant there was little
According to the report: 'Nearly six out of 10 U.S. companies reported problems attracting critical-skill employees this year.
'That is an increase from 52 per cent last year and 28 per cent in 2009.'
Ryan Johnson, CCP, Vice President of Research for WorldatWork, said: 'Employees generally don't mind doing more with less especially when economic conditions are tough.
'But when this drags into multiple years, and they start to hear anecdotes of recovery, they become less understanding.
'At that point, the entire employee value proposition is crucial to retention.'
Laurie Bienstock from Towers Watson added: 'In the short run, having employees work extra hours can increase productivity, but in the long run, extended hours can negatively affect employee well-being and retention.'

The United States once again steps foot in Libyan affairs, interrupting its years-long disregard for the oil-rich country. Is Washington able to overcome old mistakes and help end the endless war?
During the session of the Libyan parliament in the eastern city of Tobruk on March 15, the newly appointed Prime Minister Abdulhamid Al Dbaiba and members of the incumbent presidential council led by Mohamed Al Manfi took a constitutional oath and officially headed the interim Government of National Unity (GNU) of Libya.
This historic meeting of the House of Representatives, which is expected to put an end to many years of diarchy and the struggle for political leadership, was not entirely predictable, but quite the long-awaited outcome of a slow-paced process under the auspices of the United Nations.
Stephanie Williams, the American diplomat who took charge of the UN Support Mission in Libya after the resignation of Ghassan Salame, initiated the Forum of Libyan Political Dialogue. The platform proved to be crucial in determining the current shape of the GNU. As a result, many Libyans sceptically refer to the new administration as ‘Stephanie’s government’.
The success of the initiative brokered by Williams coincided with the election of Democrat Joe Biden as president of the United States and Washington’s reanimated interest in reconsidering its stance on the Libyan conflict. Long before Biden took office, concerted efforts had been made by representatives of the Democratic Party and the US State Department to move away from the policy of non-interference and reduction of military presence abroad, something Republican Donald Tramp attempted – or at least claimed – to adhere to during his presidential term. Back then the Trump administration and the Republican-dominated Senate managed to tame the State Department’s creeps and ensure that the foreign policy towards the countries of the Middle East and North Africa remained unchanged.
Biden’s victory in the presidential election as well as winning a majority in Congress gave the green light for the resumption of US political and military expansion in Libya, which the Democrats have so persistently called for. The change of power in Washington has already made itself felt in the statements of the acting head of UNSMIL, Stephanie Williams, who blamed the former US President’s adviser on national security, John Bolton, for unleashing an armed conflict between the Government of National Accord and the Libyan National Army headed by Khalifa Haftar. Williams said it was the conversation with Bolton that prompted Haftar to launch a military offensive on Tripoli in April 2019.
Such statements by the head of the UN diplomatic mission clearly indicate a dramatic change in the political climate in Washington. Casting the principle of non-intervention aside, the United States is increasingly participating in the peace process and reaching out to the parties to the conflict. In an attempt to compete with other foreign stakeholders and restore the influence partially lost during the reign of Trump, Washington has acquired a habit of making verbal interventions condemning the interference of foreign states in the internal affairs of Libya. The United States has also adopted the Libya Stabilization Act, which envisages the sanctions against all those who ‘threaten peace and stability’ in the North African country. The list of the states whose activities were considered suspicious by Washington includes almost all of the countries involved in the Libyan conflict in one way or another: Turkey, Russia, the UAE, Qatar, and Egypt.
Many analysts suggest that the United States are seeking to prevent Russia and Turkey from strengthening their hold over the region. At the same time, the ‘Russian threat’ and ‘Turkish menace’ came in handy to justify Washington’s efforts to increase military and diplomatic activity in the Libyan issue before the American public.
However, in an attempt to sideline interested countries and exclude them from the political settlement and post-conflict reconstruction, the United States risks spoiling the fragile balance in the country, repeating its old mistakes.
The former US President Barak Obama repeatedly expressed his regret over Libya, naming the White House’s failure to prepare for the aftermath of the ousting of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi ‘the worst mistake of his presidency’. The US’ lack of any action plan strangely coupled with a blind conviction in their own rightfulness plunged the North African nation into a series of endless wars and economic turmoil. In fact, the Jamahiriya, with its undeveloped democratic institutions, appeared simply unprepared for progressive reforms of the autocratic political system, while the Western countries turned their backs on Libya, leaving it alone during the first stages of the chrysalis of its newly claimed statehood.
Therefore, in order not to fall into the same trap, the United States, as well as other countries, if they really want to help Libya, has to develop a concrete, long-term plan of action that takes into account the interests of all involved parties. This very issue has been at the core of the complexity of the Libyan conflict, that has long evolved from a civil war to a hybrid confrontation between multiple foreign states.
A compromise between internal and external players in Libya is difficult, but not impossible to reach. Although it will probably take more time to find a path towards and follow it, this is undoubtedly the cornerstone of the sustainable solution to the conflict.

Derrick Henry ran over the Chiefs in the regular season, rematch looms
When the Titans beat the Chiefs in the regular season, Derrick Henry led the way. If the Titans are going to upset the Chiefs again on Sunday in the AFC Championship Game, they’ll be counting on Henry to get the job done again.
Henry carried 23 times for 188 yards and two touchdowns when the Titans beat the Chiefs in the regular season, and the Titans rode him all day. In addition to a spectacular 68-yard touchdown run, Henry ran for 10 first downs in the game. Henry only got stuffed for no yardage once.
The Chiefs’ most glaring weakness all season was their run defense. In most games, that didn’t matter all that much because the Chiefs’ offense was good enough to put them in the lead, and opposing teams had to pass to try to catch up.
The Titans, however, didn’t stop giving the ball to Henry even when they fell behind 10-0 in the regular season, and it’s a safe bet that they won’t stop going to Henry in the AFC Championship Game. They’ll try to attack the Chiefs’ defense by going to Henry over and over again, and given the softness of the Chiefs’ defense against the run, it might just work.
The Chiefs are justifiably favored, but the Titans’ experience in the regular season shows they have a path to victory. When Henry is running the ball effectively, the game is going the way the Titans want.

Affordable Care Act’s Employer Mandate to be Delayed Until 2015
July 3, 2013
The Obama administration announced Tuesday that it will delay until 2015 the requirement that businesses with more than 50 employees provide health insurance to their workers or pay a penalty under the provisions of the Affordable Care Act.
This delay is designed to allow for more time to consider ways to simplify the new reporting requirements consistent with the law, according to Valerie Jarrett, a senior adviser to President Obama, in a White House blog post released Tuesday.
It will also “allow employers the time to test the new reporting systems and make any necessary adaptations to their health benefits while staying the course toward making health coverage more affordable and accessible for their workers,” she wrote.
Other key parts of the law remain intact. Health insurance exchanges are still scheduled to be open for business on Oct. 1, and the “individual mandate,” requiring most individuals to have insurance or pay a penalty, will still go into effect in 2014.
This change does not affect businesses with fewer than 50 employees, who were already exempt from the employer mandate rule. Most large businesses already offer coverage to their employees.
The government still encourages businesses to voluntarily begin reporting in 2014 so they will be ready for 2015.
The National Retail Federation was quick to respond to the delay, calling it a “wise move.”
“This one-year delay will provide employers and businesses more time to update their health care coverage without threat of arbitrary punishment,” said National Retail Federation President Neil Trautwein in a statement.

From humble beginnings come great things...
I’m walking round with a sheaf of photocopied posters inviting women to our first DivaManc meeting this Thursday. It feels old skool – but in a good way – finding space alongside the Missing Cat, Grime Night, School Fair, Hajj travel offers, to invite local women to “be part of the debate to shape devolution in Greater Manchester”. Because although this devolution debate feels like something happening somewhere else, in rooms packed with suits, in photo calls with hard hats and hi-viz vests pointing in to the far distance, it is coming to us, this place where we live, and in some cases (like the devolution of the Health and Social Care budget) it’s already happened.
First stop along Withington Road is the Post Office – now located in Bargain World, and absent of the usual accumulation of hand written ads and notices. The smart young headscarved woman scans it and not only offers to put it up, but says she’ll share it on facebook. She’s got friends who’d be interested. After a few takeaways and newsagents it’s the Internet cafe – bedecked with bright Sudanese fashions hanging along the walls. There’s a bit of confusion about whether I need to pay but the proprietor agrees – “it’s for the community then it’s okay” she says, but I must only use blutack. I’ve brought my own, so it’s all fine.
I bump into a friend – a brilliant youth worker who’s despairing at the decimation of youth services and lack of funding for women and girls. She scans the poster I’m holding; “Yeah looks good that– yeah, I’ll come to that”. The laundrette is empty apart from a small boy, but through the back a slightly harassed woman agrees with a wave of her hand to a zone crowded with a mass of leaflets. I try to find a good spot.
After the Mediterranean Cafe it’s Pamela Jean’s Hairdressers, where local radio and an air of calm descend. A customer and friend asks for a leaflet and wants more detail. “We didn’t want a Mayor – everyone voted No to one, but looks like we’re getting one anyway”, says the woman getting her streaks redone. “You coming?” “ Yeah, I’ll come, I will, because I’m sick of finding out things after they’ve happened.”
This is not twitter. This is the street where we live. We hear a lot about the mythical “doorstep” behind which apparently live the closet racists and the naysayers, the common sense purveyors and the merely apathetic, who seem to be portrayed as both a forgotten majority, and somehow the backbone of England. But perhaps there’s another sort of conversation to have, about what’s missing, what’s not being asked, what’s your lived experience of living, working, caring, studying in this place like, what’s at stake for you and how we can do things differently? That’s a conversation we hope DivaManc will start.
We’re not suggesting that some women at one meeting will speak for all women at all times- Helen Pidd’s article on DivaManc in the Guardian rightly cautions against the dangers of narrow representations of women’s interests - and we have all had a bellyful of that intractable argument. I don’t know if anyone is going to come because they saw an old skool poster in a newsagent’s window, but I do know our meeting was booked out within 48 hours of being advertised. If each of the women who join our first DivaManc meeting carry on the conversation, with friends, families, colleagues, facebook groups, strangers at the bus stop, and with each other, if they’re inspired find out more, set up their own group, scrutinise the plans, get involved, change the plans, then it’ll have been a great start.

The Nigeria National League board have suspended FC Taraba until they pay off all the monies they owe their players from last season, reports Completesportsnigeria.com.
The Jalingo-based outfit were relegated from the Nigeria Professional Football League last term.
NNL Secretary, Lawrence Katken, stated that the club will play no part in the league until they comply with the decision of the 2015 Annual General Assembly of the Nigeria Football Federation on the payment of backlog of salaries and allowances to the players.
“Football is governed by rules and rules are meant to be obeyed. We have no choice but to implement the decision of the Congress,” said Katken in a release made available to Completesportsnigeria.com.
“We always have to ensure that clubs in the NNL are ready to run because they move to the Premier League from the NNL.
“It behoves on us to direct them well.”
FC Taraba are due to take on Supreme Court on Sunday.

A History of Childhood: Children and Childhood in the West from Medieval to Modern Times / Edition 1by Colin Heywood
Pub. Date: 12/31/2001
In this lively and accessible book, Colin Heywood explores the changing experiences and perceptions of childhood from the early Middle Ages to the beginning of the twentieth century. Heywood examines the different ways in which people have thought about childhood as a stage of life, the relationships of children with their families and peers, and the experiences of young people at work, in school and at the hands of various welfare institutions. The aim is to place the history of children and childhood firmly in its social and cultural context, without losing sight of the many individual experiences that have come down to us in diaries, autobiographies and oral testimonies.
Heywood argues that there is a cruel paradox at the heart of childhood in the past. On the one hand, material conditions for children have generally improved in the West, however belatedly and unevenly, and they are now more valued than in the past. On the other hand, the business of preparing for adulthood has become more complicated in urban and industrial societies, as the young face a bewildering array of choices and expectations.
A History of Childhood will be an essential introduction to the subject for students of history, the social sciences and cultural studies.

Sampling the Placental Insertion Site Improves Funisitis Sensitivity: Implications for Maternofetal Cross-Talk
AM VanSandt, TK Morgan. OHSU, Portland, OR
Background: Acute chorioamnionitis is a sensitive sign of intra-amnionic infection. Maternal neutrophils infiltrate the placental chorionic plate and membranes. In contrast, funisitis is a specific sign of infection, mediated by fetal neutrophils. We hypothesize that if maternal cytokine signaling plays a role in stimulating funisitis, the distal placental insertion site may be the most sensitive section to detect this fetal inflammatory response.
Design: We performed a prospective study of placentas collected at OHSU from October 2008 to October 2009 (n=509). The proximal fetal and distal placental insertion sections of the umbilical cord were sampled for histologic examination. Only singleton placentas were included and cases were excluded if the cord was not adequately sampled, the cord was detached, short (less than 10 cm), or abnormally inserted (eg, velamentous). Sections of the cord were scored for funisitis and arteritis. Sections of the placentas were scored for signs of infection, which required at least acute chorionitis (reported negative predictive value of 97%). All slides were reviewed by a placental pathologist (tkm) and pathology resident (avs). Their diagnoses were compared by kappa statistic to test agreement between pathologists and between the fetal and placental sections of the cord.
Results: The frequency of intra-amnionic infection in our cohort was approximately 35% (acute chorionitis 13% [n=67], chorioamnionitis 21% [n=109], necrotizing chorioamnionitis 1% [n=5]). Funisitis was seen in 14% of our cohort. We observed excellent diagnostic agreement between pathologists (kappa 0.63, p<0.0001), but only moderate agreement between the fetal and placental sides of the cord (kappa 0.46; TABLE). Using acute chorionitis as the gold standard for infection, the sensitivity of detecting funisitis at the placental side of the cord was 97% (95% CI, 90-99) and 65% at the fetal side (52-75).
|Proximal Funisitis (n=24)||Proximal Arteritis (n=23)||Proximal Negative (n=26)*|
|Distal Funisitis (n=38)||16||5||17|

1. Most Probably and ATTENTIVE. Put aside times in private along with your teenager supply their undivided focus. Set aside mobile phones and converse in a host you’re both comfy in.
2. determine your very own prices beforehand. Teenagers might ask you to answer questions regarding the way you look at connections. Exactly how should individuals act if they disagree? How should union behavior be made? Maybe you have started envious in a relationship? What’s a healthier method to act when you’re jealous? Be prepared to answer potentially tough issues as actually as you are able to.

4. on a regular basis discuss the media’s union portrayals. Since they are a new comer to internet dating, preteens and teenagers have impractical expectations of interactions according to overwhelming mass media influences that stress jealousy, regulation, extreme crisis, and stalking behaviors as signs and symptoms of really love.
5. track social networking use and have now available discussions about drawing technical limits.
Whenever is TOO much communications problems for the teenager? Not enough? Continual access to development blurs lines about acceptable amounts of communications (“textual harassment”).

Less than six months ago, we wrote in this column about the demise of a popular bookstore in Sobo, and how it left a void in the lives of its loyal patrons across the city, for whom it was a nurturing and was a nourishing place that spanned generations. It’s bad enough that our readers have to deal with an already shrinking ecosystem with little reading space [physical bookstores and libraries], The pandemic hastened the process where not only in Bombay but across the country such platforms got sweaty fearing the worst.
Recently, the other end of the industry saw its first crash with the news that the publishing house, Westland, would cease operations from 28 February. This is another knock with far-reaching effects not only on the readers, but also on their list of authors. In all our years of being involved with books, first as a reader, then as a library and bookstore custodian, and finally, as a journalist and author, this is an unheard of scenario. We’ve heard of books ceasing publication for a variety of reasons – from banning to being out of stock because they were no longer commercially viable for reprint. But to hear about a major publishing house ending its run with a strong list is a sad one.
The shuttering of Westland by Amazon, which bought it five years ago, sent shock waves across the various layers of the company. The writers will take a long time to recover as they come to terms with the news, and seek new homes for their work, as are its employees, many of whom are highly respected names in India’s publishing world. Bookstores around the country are encouraging readers to buy stock to support these authors. It was a wonderful gesture to see this important team in the publishing world do their job, offering to ship titles anywhere in the country.
I remember the time in the mid-2000s, when I was informed by the publisher of my first solo book that they would have to stop releasing it. I felt like an arm and a leg had been amputated. It was a quiz book on Bombay, which was read lightly that a trivia lover would enjoy an evening of quizzing fun while hanging out with like-minded friends. But it probably didn’t resonate enough. I had bought a few copies that were in stock from the Strand Book Stall (where else!) for memory, as I said goodbye to seeing it on the bookshelf, gave me great joy and pride. If at the time I felt this way about a book that had at least two years to go, I can’t even imagine what must have been going through the minds of these writers, especially new ones, who have just started out. Will be Cherish its success.
An employee posted a heartfelt message on social media after the news broke why we shouldn’t wait for a bookstore or publishing house to close. Instead, he elaborated, people should introduce their children, parents, siblings, neighbors to the magic of books and motivate them to visit bookstores and establish a closer relationship with books. . The experience is far richer and longer lasting than visiting a coffee shop. That idea resonated, big time.
Why aren’t birthday parties held inside a bookstore? Why not use the time at the bookstore to hang out with friends? Or on Sunday evenings to discuss a favorite book? How many of us continue to gift books to our friends or friends’ children for their birthdays or special occasions? These are small but constant reminders that can make a difference, or to quote Sherlock Holmes, “the little things are infinitely most important.” It’s never too late to introduce or rekindle the idea of books in one’s life. You never know how far it will go to impress and impress someone. About 15 years ago, during a two-year volunteering stint for an NGO, I taught the basics of journalism along with the history of the city to middle and senior school children in the chawls of Worli. Gone are the days when young people had limited access. Internet, and smartphones were not around. My overflowing bookshelf meant that I would constantly pass out books I thought I grew up on to these kids. I did it on autopilot because it came naturally to me. When the semester was over and it was time to say goodbye to the batch, I received a hand-written ‘thank you’ from some students for the books I had given them. I cherish those notes forever.
The current rush to buy titles shouldn’t be a forgotten reaction until next month. This closure, like many others who have influenced our universe of books, should instead serve as another catalyst and a reminder, so we never forget these constant companions and their nurturers—whether it be Bookstore or publishing house. Both deserve our endless support and respect to survive as a society where reading is not a luxury but second nature to our existence.

NOBLEX has been making high-end optics out of Germany for 150 years. A well-known brand, but they weren’t on my SHOT Show must-visit list. Thankfully a picture of this new “NOBLEX Sight for GLOCK M.O.S. System” optic caught my eye and I popped in to check it out. This is easily one of the coolest micro red dot pistol sights available.
Whereas other MRDS use the GLOCK M.O.S. mounting plate as a sandwich-style adapter in-between the optic and the gun, the NOBLEX optic IS the mounting plate.
It’s the lowest-mounted reflex sight in the world. Even GLOCK’s factory, plastic sights can be lined up through the lens of the NOBLEX — no suppressor-height sights necessary.
Unlike the vast majority of other reflex sights on the market, the NOBLEX is fully enclosed. This protects the LED from water, dirt, mud, etc. that can block its ability to reflect onto the lens where the shooter sees it as a floating dot.
On the NOBLEX, the 5 MOA, auto-brightness-adjusting dot is projected from an LED inside of the two-lens, enclosed optic that’s surrounded by a steel housing.
NOBLEX says it’s impervious to heavy use, and the design is certainly a great step in that direction. It’s also sleeker, lower, and generally less likely to snag than many MRDS and, as it mounts directly to the slide rather than via an adapter, it’s a more integral connection with half as many screws and what should be a more secure, solid connection to the gun.
Hopefully we can borrow one for review, because on paper and just playing with it in the SHOT Show booth it seems really promising. Plus, I dig its unique look.
