Cases that are refractory to the standard protocols developed and used by the Provincetown Center for Coastal Studies (PCCS) are especially head and flipper wraps in right whales. There is a need both for immediately deployable solutions and development of better technology and techniques. Such advances must avoid proliferation of at sea personnel and include plans for next steps in each possible contingency. These are not currently supported within the Disentanglement Network or NOAA. History: two prior workshops resulted in a focus on the potential for sedation to enhance tractability, the delivery of hyper-concentrated Meperidine and Midazolam via a pole delivered, gas powered syringe to an entangled right whale, the acquisition of a working right whale tail model and its use to develop tail harness systems, and the conceptualization of a suction cup tag that could deliver drugs on demand and monitor the status of the individual. Experience from sedating marine mammals in captivity, and observation of sleeping right whales suggests that adequate tractability might be achieved in free swimming animals without significant loss of equilibrium.

    A QUALITATIVE STUDY OF WOMEN’S EXPERIENCES TRANSITIONING FROM THE SEX TRADE TO LEGAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES A Dissertation by SHANNON KNIGHT DEER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Lisa M. Baumgartner Committee Members, Jill Zarestky Valerie Hudson Nancy Plankey-Videla Head of Department, Fredrick M. Nafukho May 2017 Major Subject: Education Human Resource Development Copyright 2017 Shannon Deer ABSTRACT Law enforcement, the media, and the public have given recent attention to the sex trade in conjunction with an increased focus on combatting sex trafficking. However, little is known about women’s experiences transitioning out of the sex trade, especially related to learning and finding economically sustainable employment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the experiences of women transitioning out of the sex trade, especially related to finding legal employment. Transitional learning theory, experiential learning theory, and a general transition model formed the conceptual framework which guided this study. Participants included 10 adult English speaking women who engaged in the sex trade in Texas for at least 1 year, and who exited the sex trade at least 3 months before being interviewed. Data collection involved two semi-structured interviews composed of open-ended questions and probing questions. I used the constant comparative coding method for data analysis. Respondents described the challenges, supports, and types of learnings used throughout their experience transitioning from the sex trade. The participants’ experiences were categorized into (a) employment related challenges, (b) managing mental health and emotions, (c) navigating basic life skills, and (d) building, rebuilding, and managing relationships.

Grant Barrett’s Nominations for Words of the Year 2005 blame game n. mutual reproach or an exchange of accusations among people who refuse to accept (sole) responsibility for a failure or other undesirable outcome. Dating to at least as early as 1937, blame game became far more common in the 1970’s. This year, the blame game was played between state and federal officials debating who was responsible for the failures to evacuate, protect, and rebuild New Orleans. crotchfruit n. a child; children. Perhaps inspired by the expression the fruit of one’s loins, this term began among proponents of child-free public spaces, but has since spread to parents who use it jocularly. counter recruiter n. a person who actively discourages enlistment in the armed forces. Counter recruiters seek equal time in high schools to oppose recruitment there. CXO n. any executive with a title on the pattern of CEO, CFO, CTO, CIO, etc. Increasingly, corporate head-honcho positions pass between a variety of top-level executives with different areas of expertise. dirka dirka n. a derogatory mimicry of spoken Arabic. Also use attributively to connote things Muslim, Arabic, or Middle Eastern, or those related to terrorists or terrorism. This was first used by a caricature of Osama bin Laden in the animated television show South Park, episode 509, “Osama bin Laden Has Farty Pants,” which originally aired Nov.

The relief of a gorgon stared back from behind the glass, tongue out, teeth bared, the circular edges of the coin stretched so much like Play-Doh she imagined the Greeks entrusting its minting to a child. She stood back up and was startled by a tall red-haired young man hovering over her. She knew his face from the opposite end of a scratched-up wooden table on the ground floor of Logan Hall. He apologized, but lingered as if they were already in the midst of a conversation. He explained that drachmae were made of electrum, an alloy of silver and gold, but only made with a wee bit of gold once circulated under the Roman Empire.

He sprang up in the dark, flipped the light, and hit the deck for sit-ups. His abs burned as his shoulders curled off the carpet, his scrawny belly mushing over the ratty elastic of his briefs. He needed to tell Mom to buy him some new underwear. He pulled on sweatpants, bounded down to the treadmill. The living room had a radio too, but he preferred cadences for jogging. He was his own drill sergeant, the call and the response. He barked both parts quietly as his feet slapped the whirring band; Mom was still asleep. Mama, Mama can’t you see? What JROTC’s done for me.

The veteran whaler worked from a small dinghy and used only a lance… The Argus 12 November 1936 A dark shape lolls out in the bay. A seal perhaps, catching the last warmth of the winter sun – flippers skyward, head down, looking like an old box washed out to sea. From his seat in the outhouse up the ridge, the old man can see right across Twofold Bay. On a clear day he can see the white caps break over Mewstone Rock. Random patches of foam cling to the surface for a breath or two before subsiding into blue. Even now he can spot the patches that fracture the surface in close succession, those that linger longer than they should, that surge in troughs rather than peaks, suggesting a source from beneath rather than above. Fish, dolphins, whales, seals, sharks; their signatures written on the water for those who can read them. The shape rolls into view again. Not a seal: too dark, too large. He watches as it drifts closer, appearing and disappearing in the troughs of the swell.

(For immediate release) 12.21.05 2005 WORDS OF THE YEAR TO BE CHOSEN IN ALBUQUERQUE For the past 15 years, the 116-year-old American Dialect Society has chosen Words of the Year—a word or phrase that best reflects the language and preoccupations of the year gone by.
