Homeland Season 3 Episode 1 recap
Nothing is, anymore. There's only what was and isn't any longer. It's that weird, quiet space in the aftermath, and the show doesn't squirm away from it. It's there.
Firstly, there isn't the CIA. Obviously. It was summarily blown up. 58 days, we are reminded, and over 219 lost lives. They repeat those numbers a lot, lest we forget. They remind us that this is the biggest strike against the US since 9/11.
What there is, in the absence of the CIA, is Saul – much more highly involved than before. He doesn't seem altogether comfortable with this, obviously, but he's not shirking his duty, either. Kind of as though he might have expected something like this to happen someday. There doesn't exist the warm relationship between Carrie and Saul, either. In his official capacity he's practically honor-bound to sell her out (and eventually does, live on what passes for CNN) but there's something missing in his eyes, too. Two years (or many more) of dealing with Carrie has hardened him somehow, and Saul doesn't protect her at all. At least in public, at least in front of his new associates. We never see Saul and Carrie alone, and given that we have time to see his wife Mira, and to hear about how well their relationship isn't going, that's entirely intentional. There is no Carrie in Saul's life, at least not that can be seen. Maybe that's for self-protection. He also has a new CIA analyst to deal with, and he needs a stiff upper lip for that. His warmth seems completely gone.
There isn't Carrie Matheson in any sort of powerful capacity, not officially and not in the force of nature way we've seen her before. She is merely an informational source for the examination tribunal, though they do have the grace to interview her behind closed doors because they don't want to blow up networks of hers unnecessarily. We reach about the seven-minute mark before someone asks her, in so many words, what she's smoking. Which is exactly the antiquated type of comment that an old white guy would say, so points for that.
In fact, there isn't the Carrie of any recent memory. She's compliant and cooperative in her interrogations, and she's open-faced and innocent in the spectre of anyone telling her she's a threat to her country. There is, almost until the end, no indication of the Carrie we knew, and certainly not the Carrie who did anything to make sure Brody was safely in Canada. Instead, she's having sex on her stairs (with, it's implied, someone she met at Wal-Mart) and screaming at Saul for having betrayed her. He might not have, of course, but when it comes down to who might have done, it's not like you believe him. He makes a point of interrogating someone else about it – mildly, as Saul does – but it's not exactly satisfying.
There's Carrie's family ,who always show up for an episode or two to carp about her medications (remember those nieces she loved?) and she gets to tremble in front of her father, who calls to tell her to do things like read the paper to learn the latest about herself, where she's been outed in all but name. But it feels like what it probably is – the beginning of the season. Just a table-setter.
There is, surprisingly, still a Brody house. Because someone told Alex Gansa that we still care about them. Having said that, this part of the story is actually kind of interesting. The Brody family has been vilified and excommunicated – as you would expect. They harboured a criminal, or so the world thinks – so they're not free to walk around in the world, and their lives and their finances are affected. I actually buy this, just like I buy that the family without Brody is more talkative than they've been in years. It's saying something, especially since in the aftermath of Brody's accusations and disappearance, Dana has made a pretty serious suicide attempt and part of Jess's efforts to hold the family together with gum have included having the bathroom redone so Dana isn't reminded of her fragile mental health.
Oh, and of course there isn't any Brody.
This is where the show begins, where they swore to us they could make it work. Brody should have died, maybe several times, but they couldn't bring themselves to do it – so he lives, somewhere out there. The question is whether any of these characters and stories are better off if he comes back. This is a slower-moving premiere. There isn't the manic energy of "The Smile". This is an aftermath if we ever saw one. But it seems as though Brody's absence should feel more like the other shoe about to drop, and it doesn't, really. Not yet.
How did it make you feel?

This article presents the outcomes of a research project conducted in five small Russian towns. Different coalitions between local actors take place in all communities. However, coalitions that meet the criteria of the urban regime (in Stone's classical interpretation) have been discovered, with certain reservations, only in two towns.
Most historically and predominantly white institutions (HPWIs) now desire some number of black students on their campuses. However, recent theoretical scholarship suggests that HPWIs' desire for and willingness to embrace black students is predicated on their racial palatability. The theory of intraracial discrimination stipulates that white gatekeepers are increasingly inclined to screen blacks to "weed out" those they perceive as too concerned with race and racism.

It was a normal week day and her husband was at work. After finishing her duties at home, Salma was busy as usual helping her neighbors, today washing their clothes. Her friends were surprised at her selfless kindness but she always told her friends: "A kindness a day keeps the devil away. I try to do one act of kindness everyday in hopes that it will eradicate a sin I may have unconsciously committed in the Book of Life".
One Sunday Salma's husband said, "May I ride with you today when you go to do the grocery shopping?"
Salma was obviously surprised, but she didn't question his request and said, "Sure why not, then we can spend some time together as you are always busy."
So Salma and her husband left and spent the whole day together. When they got home and put away the groceries, Salma thanked her husband for being so kind as to come with her.
He answered, "Salma, the real reason that I went with you is because you always tell people to do just one act of kindness, like eating an apple a day, keeps the Devil away, so I asked to ride with you to see just how kindly you act with people every day."
Salma asked with astonishment: "Why?". He replied, "Because I wanted to see how do you practice kindness, and I wanted to see if you practiced what you preach. And trust me, I will never doubt anything you say again."
He continued and said to Salma:
(1) "When we got in the van, you let the car across from us go first while watching that no car was coming from behind and you signaled him to go.
(2) "When we reached the stop, you signaled for people to cross the street saying that this way you protect them at least when you are at the stop sign because most drivers don't care about people, they just want to be on their way.
(3) "On the freeway you signaled the trailer trucks when you were letting them take the lane and slowed down to give them space to change lanes, saying that they had a delivery to make on time and that you had all the time in the world.
(4) "When we arrived in the store parking lot as you went to take a spot, someone else just swiped in front of you and we had to go all the way to the back. You never got angry. You said, "Well, maybe he has sore legs and needs to be closer," and you laughed.
(5) "As we arrived at the entrance door, you opened the door and let an elderly couple in saying, "Beauty before age."
"Well when I counted up 25 acts of kindness I stopped counting because your one act of kindness just rolls into many more. I couldn't believe it; you are so kind that I am sure that in the Good Book it will outweigh whatever you do wrong. From now on I will also do one act of kindness a day, and I will never doubt anything you say you do ever again".
Salma laughed and said, "Kindness is like a box of chocolates, when I open the box, I can never eat just one. I finish the box! And this is true, that is why I don't buy a whole box; it doesn't last the day. But I am so used to being kind that I don't even notice I am doing it. It is just lovingmy fellow human beings. It is just following Bibi Fatima (as) who said: "(Help) the neighbor first, before your own self."
Subhanallah, Salma was indeed a true follower of Bibi Fatima (as) who was so kind that:
(1) Bibi Fatima gave her new marriage dress to a poor person and wore her old dress instead, in the wedding. The next day when the Prophet (saww) asked why she was wearing an old dress, she replied that she gave the new dress to a poor person. Can we get such example of kindness anywhere?
The Prophet (saww) asked: "Why didn't you give your old dress instead?".
She replied: Because the Holy Quran says: "You will not achieve piety until you give out what you love the most." (3:92)
(2) Bibi Fatima and her whole family remained hungry for three days but offered the evening meals after three long days' fasting to the beggar, the orphan and the prisoner.
Holy Quran, praising this kind act, says: "And they feed, for the love of Allah, the indigent, the orphan, and the captive." (76:8)
(3) Bibi Fatima was so kind to her servant Fizza, that Fizza worked one day and the other day Fatima (as) would work so that Fizza could rest. Such example of kindness can only be found in the family of the Prophet (saw).
Alas, such a kind and benevolent lady was so much terrorized after the death of her father that she had to say addressing her father, the Holy Prophet, standing before his grave: "Oh! Father dear! After you, fell on me such miseries that had they fallen on bright days, the bright days would have turned into darkest nights."

The Art Institute of Chicago, the High Museum of Art, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston (MFAH), and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art are pleased to announce the launch of The Andrew W. Mellon Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship Program, which provides specialized training in the curatorial field for students across the United States from diverse backgrounds. This initiative is generously supported by a grant of $2,073,000 from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. A National Fellowship Coordinator based at LACMA, the institution to which the grant was made, will work with regional coordinators to execute the program across all of the museums.
The fellowship seeks to make a critical impact on American art museums by developing gifted curators who are committed to engaging with the full spectrum of museum audiences. Fellows will participate in The Andrew W. Mellon Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship Program throughout their undergraduate career, with the goal of continuing their education through graduate work.
Twenty students nationwide will be selected for this intensive program following Summer Academies at each museum over the course of the grant period. The Summer Academy is a one-week intensive program consisting of workshops, tours, field trips and networking events with museum professionals. They will be offered in summer 2014 and summer 2015 at each partnering museum. This program is open to freshmen and sophomore students, enrolled in undergraduate programs located near the partner museums, representing historically underrepresented groups in the curatorial field or who support the goal of promoting inclusive, pluralistic museums.
Douglas Druick, President and Eloise W. Martin Director at the Art Institute of Chicago, said, "We are grateful to The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for funding such a visionary program that will provide students with meaningful formal experience in curatorial endeavors, mentoring, and exposure to professionals across wide areas of expertise, including conservation, education, and digital access. This initiative is critical to the vitality of museums and museum leadership around the country, and I look forward to supporting and encouraging young scholars here in Chicago as the program unfolds."
"We are honored and extremely excited to participate in this important initiative and to help foster future leaders and diversity in the curatorial field," said Michael E. Shapiro, Nancy and Holcombe T. Green, Jr. director of the High. "This program offers the very special opportunity for undergraduate students to gain a true understanding of how museums work and for art institutions to become more inclusive and representative of the communities they serve."
"We believe The Andrew W. Mellon Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship will have a lasting impact on the next generation of curators," said Michael Govan, LACMA CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director. "We are pleased to partner with our colleagues on this important initiative. We thank the Mellon Foundation for their generous support and applaud their tremendous dedication to pioneering programs such as this."
"Demographers have determined that Houston has the most diverse population of any American metropolis," commented Gary Tinterow, MFAH Director. "Crucially, this initiative will enable us to educate and mentor a new and more diverse generation of museum professionals, one that truly reflects the changing face of our country."
Julián Zugazagoitia, CEO & Director of The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, remarked, "I am very proud that the Nelson-Atkins is part of The Andrew W. Mellon Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship in partnership. We live in the heart of the United States at a crossroads of diverse cultures and perspectives. We have a tremendously talented team of curators and staff excited about helping students shape their future and the rich varied future of our field."
Selected fellows will participate in a multiyear program that provides hands-on experience inside a museum setting, such as working with curators and staff on exhibitions, collections, and programs. Designed as a series of ongoing summer internships at the museum, followed by continued engagement during the academic school year, fellows are provided a stipend and are assigned museum mentors. Mentors will work with students to enrich the academic experience and to increase exposure to the museum context while broadening their understanding of art and art history.

About The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation
The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation currently makes grants in four core program areas: Higher Education and Scholarship; Scholarly Communications and Information Technology; Art History, Conservation, and Museums; Performing Arts. Within each of its core programs, the Foundation concentrates most of its grantmaking in a few areas. Institutions and programs receiving support are often leaders in fields of Foundation activity, but they may also be promising newcomers, or in a position to demonstrate new ways of overcoming obstacles to achieve program goals. Our grantmaking philosophy is to build, strengthen and sustain institutions and their core capacities, rather than be a source for narrowly defined projects. As such, we develop thoughtful, long-term collaborations with grant recipients and invest sufficient funds for an extended period to accomplish the purpose at hand and achieve meaningful results.

About Us
Alpha Omicron Pi Fraternity was founded on January 2, 1897 at Barnard College of Columbia University in New York City. The ideals of sincerity, service, and friendship provide the foundation for AOII. As one of our founders Stella George Stern Perry explained, "We cared so profoundly for one another that we unconsciously desired a society based upon original feeling... We felt that as love never faileth, a future on that foundation was assured."
With over 168,000 initiated members from 206 collegiate chapters, the values on which AOII was founded help lead us in the decisions we make and the behaviors we exhibit in our daily lives. We are inspired to promote the values of simplicity, integrity, tolerance, generosity, personal dignity, and love. Our lives are to be living symbols of these values that we hold in common. They enable us to go with character and confidence into the world around us, with assurance in knowing AOII is ours, offering friendships and opportunities throughout our lifetime.
There are three key components that AOII uses to communicate our purpose: The Object of the Fraternity, our Mission Statement, and AOII's Vision Statement. Although each individually unique, the three components work together to guide and direct our ever-expanding membership and leaders.
The object of the Fraternity shall be to encourage a spirit of Fraternity and love among its members; to stand at all times for character, dignity, scholarship, and college loyalty; to strive for and support the best interest of the colleges and universities in which chapters are installed, and in no way to disregard, injure, or sacrifice those interests for the sake of prestige or advancement of the Fraternity or any of its chapters.

A proper trailer for Runner, Runner, starring JT and Ben Affleck, has not yet been released but Entertainment Tonight aired a preview the other day and, well, if you were curious whether or not Justin's acting has improved, the answer is...
Why are you curious?
Timberlake's voice gives him an advantage in music. Musically, his voice is a gift. In movies though, that voice is a major disadvantage. There's something about the way JT speaks that is so inauthentic, it takes you right out of the scene. Is this irony?
Also, while Affleck has proven himself to be an outstanding director, it's not like anyone ever thought he was Daniel Day-Lewis, right? So the two of them together...
Is messy the right word?
Runner, Runner is due in theatres in September.
Here's Ben in Santa Monica yesterday for a lunch meeting.
Thanks Moreen!

The little children were probably dreaming of Christmas morning when a monster opened fire with his state-of-the-art weapons. Don't say you're shocked that 20 children were slaughtered — and more of us must admit that, unless something changes, we expect there will be more such massacres. Isn't it time for this nation to say, "We've had enough?"
When will people of faith awake and lead this gun-crazed country to adopt laws which make our streets and elementary schools as safe as those in other developed nations? Any gun lover who does not grieve over this tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School, and who continues to oppose any and all preventive measures to stop gun violence, serves an idol instead of the Living God.
As I wrote in 9mm Golden Calves in this month's issue of Sojourners magazine:
Back in 1990, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) issued this warning: "The religious community must ... take seriously the risk of idolatry that could result from an unwarranted fascination with guns, which overlooks or ignores the social consequences of their misuse." Two decades later, about 660,000 more Americans have been killed by guns, with a million more injured.
These figures convince me that what was a risk in 1990 has become our reality today: For too many, guns have become idols. They claim divine status; make promises of safety and security they cannot keep; transform people and neighborhoods; create enemies; and require human sacrifice.
James E. Atwood, a retired Presbyterian pastor, is a gun owner, author of America and its Guns: A Theological Exposé, and chair of the Greater Washington chapter of the anti-gun- violence group Heeding God's Call.

Chancy: Fans hope to ice visit with Hilary
The swish of skates and the swirl of tiny skating skirts in the rink echoed the excited energy in the lobby of the Charlottesville Ice Park Saturday, July 23. About 20 happy little girls and their moms and dads waited with high hopes and wide eyes at the drawing for two front-row tickets to see teen idol Hilary Duff in Richmond.
One mom admitted that entering the contest had occurred to her daughter and her friend only as they passed by the Ice Park's neon sign announcing the drawing. Other eager youngsters had come especially for the chance to see their hero in person.
The excitement peaked at 5 o'clock when Hook rep Jamie Price pulled Mary Fitzgerald's name from the big box. Nineteen-year-old Fitzgerald– who was just as eager as pre-teens to have a chance to see the teeny bopping star of Lizzie McGuire and other films– didn't seem inclined to console the disappointed little girls around her.
"I was hoping I'd win," she said. "I'm obsessed with Hilary Duff."
Catalina Chernavvsky-Sequeira and Elizabeth Ganey-Kerekes hope they win the tickets to see Hilary.
Bill Field cuddles with daughter Lauren as they wait for the drawing.
Morgan Sparks files her entry in the Hook box.
Samantha Rougeau, Heather Royston, and Dominic Brown, the ever helpful Ice Park staff, were in charge of crowd control at the drawing.
Samantha Ehlers swears she was not packing the entry box!
The happy winner!

For Spring – Summer 2012 antithesis and contrasts are the main elements of the collection. For this collection the creative director of Byblos was inspired by the most iconic figure of the 90s, Isabelle Blow, a romantic and yet cold woman with a great effect on many aspects of art and fashion.
As Isabelle said, «fashion overdoes things to make them more beautiful». Her more intimate and delicate look, was translated in this collection into soft fabrics and laces but with a very clear and cold cut. The show opposes her two different souls – the scabrous soul, precise, cold, impetuous, geometrical, defending, and – the most intimate and consealed neo romantic soul that comes alive through flowing fabrics, light colors and sensationally technical shaped jackets.
For this season, in the main tent of Milan's fashion week, the main colors that prevail are black, white, cream, moca, and as acsents, mustard, red and grey are mostly used. The long aerial dresses, the structured pants, the spacey shorts and the lasered lace, inlay a flavor of futuristic sense styles on the catwalk. Shaping the body with light silhuettes and beautifully structured capes, brings out the true DNA of Byblos, a brand that has made a major comeback during the last seasons.
«I don't follow trends, I follow instincts» said I.Blow - in the jacquard interpretation prints, placed organically on the item. And at the same time, the artistically created high-heels with the heel put in the center of the shoe, are a tribute to it! A tribute to Byblos! A tribute to her!

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and retire from your White House press corps job after getting caught on camera saying that Swedish people need to "get the hell" out of your local IHOP. LET'S GO!
GLEE – 9:00PM (FOX) And now your 2009-2010 TV season comes to an official close with the season finale of FOX's smash musical hit. Olivia Newton John guest stars as a regional finals judge. Almost a shame they couldn't get John Travolta to come join her. OR DID THEY? No, just teasing. They didn't. Sorry.
Tonight episode is called "Journey." Any takers as to just whose songs might be covered this evening? If you said Bachman Turner Overdrive, go to your room and never come out. The Journey covers featured tonight include a reprise of "Don't Stop Belivin'," (hopefully with no smash to black before anything interesting has occurred), along with renditions of "Faithfully" and "Any Way You Want It." If the latter song isn't performed with students dancing around an oversized golf club bag, I'll be sorely disappointed. ANTICIPATION: HEY EVERYONE, WE'RE ALL GONNA GET SINGY!
PRETTY LITTLE LIARS – 8:00PM (ABC Family) It's the premiere of this new ABC Family show based on Sara Shepard's best-selling young adult books. The premise is this: A group of ultrapopular girls are haunted by the now deceased (murdered?) leader of their clique. She sends text messages from the grave! Which is still a more welcome development than getting text messages from Verizon. Stop harassing me! I'm already a customer, man! ANTICIPATION: MEAN GHOSTS!
HELL'S KITCHEN – 8:00PM (FOX) I'd like this show far more if the chefs they brought in appeared to be talented, as they are on Top Chef and on other good foodie competitions. But I feel like Fox just picks the crummiest chefs they can, so that Gordon can yell at them more. I like yelling as much as anyone, but the food porn addict in me demands someone who can make a proper gastrique. ANTICIPATION: BOLLOCKS!
LAKERS/CELTICS – 9:00PM (ABC) The series shifts to Boston tonight. The Celtics won game 2 thanks to Ray Allen playing out of his skull and Kobe Bryant getting in early foul trouble. At least one of those two things won't happen again this evening, I assure you. ANTICIPATION: SEPIA FOOTAGE OF BOB COUSY!
DAILY SHOW – 11:00PM (Comedy Central) Tonight's guest is Christopher Hitchens. And if you're feeling bad about how much you had to drink on this Tuesday evening, don't worry. Hitchens drank more than you. Far more. ANTICIPATION: DRUNKEN ATHEISTS!
Tuesday Watch List: Glee Finale! So Glittersweet!
Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and retire from your White House press corps job after getting caught on camera saying that Swedish people need to "get the hell" out of your local IHOP. LET'S GO!

Budget Tips for the Sandwich Generation
In the early 1980s, demographers took note of the so-called "Sandwich Generation," members of the baby boom who were caring for aging parents while they still had young children at home.
Since then, the Sandwich Generation has grown noticeably larger. Americans are living longer—the life expectancy is now 78.8 years—but older Americans are not necessarily healthy nor independent during those bonus years. They may have outlived their money. More Americans than ever are providing hands-on and financial assistance for senior loved ones. They might be caring not only for aging parents, but for grandparents and even great-grandparents!
Meanwhile, these days the "small children at home" aren't so small. A May 2016 study from Pew Research reported that today, the No. 1 living arrangement for Americans aged 18 – 34 is with their parents, rather than living alone or with a spouse, partner or roommates. Demographers speak of this new life stage as "emerging adulthood"; pundits use the term "boomerang kids." What's behind this trend? Young adults today settle down with a spouse or partner at an older age. Changing economic conditions mean it's harder to establish a well-paying career right away. They are more likely to attend college, which delays their entry to full-time employment and may leave them with sizable student loans. They might be living with Mom and Dad while they save up a down payment for their first home. If a marriage breaks up, adult children might move home, perhaps bringing grandchildren who add yet another layer to the sandwich.
These demographic changes come at a substantial cost to members of the Sandwich Generation. A recent survey from TD Ameritrade showed that today, 20 percent of Americans provide financial support to a parent or an adult child, at an average cost of $12,000 per year, and they're more likely to be in debt. Pew reports that half of all adults have provided financial support to grown children during the past year; 27 percent were providing primary support. These extra years spent in the middle of the sandwich are expected to take a long-term financial toll on baby boomers and members of Generation X (those born between 1965 – 1979). Sandwich caregivers must live a more frugal lifestyle. They work longer and give up retirement goals such as travel or remodeling their home. Most concerning, many of these caregivers are failing to save for their own retirement and future long-term care costs.
If you're a card-carrying member of the Sandwich Generation, it's time to take a realistic look at your financial well-being. Here are eight steps to take:
Create a budget. If you've never put it all in writing, now is the time. Studies show that few elder caregivers or parents of adult children have an accurate picture of how much they are spending. Don't forget to factor in expenses such as food, cellphone and cable bills, and health and car insurance. And don't forget the "flight attendant rule": Put your own oxygen mask on first! What will it take for you to stay out of debt and put away money for your own retirement and future healthcare needs?
Share your findings with your parents and children. You don't need to disclose your full financial picture, but you do need to explain the basics. This will help Mom and Dad understand when you can't take more time off work or travel more to visit them if they live at a distance. It will demonstrate why you can't help adult children with luxuries. Psychologists say being open about money helps nudge children toward greater independence. Go ahead and play your ace: Remind your children that saving for your own retirement and care makes it less likely that this responsibility will fall on them someday!
Don't be afraid to set boundaries. Every family has its own dynamics. You might have very independent parents who say "Please don't do anything for me" and adult children who are out on their own as soon as possible, both of whom have the wherewithal to make that happen. Yet a study on intergenerational interdependency from Merrill Lynch Wealth Management found that in many families, one member is thought of as "the bank"—the person family members turn to for financial help. If you can't afford to be "the bank," it's important to say so—and to learn to say no.
Lower costs by presenting realistic expectations. Have a frank discussion with senior loved ones about the cost of various care options and what you and they would be expected to pay. And early in your children's college planning process, set out the facts about financial limitations: Living at home, choosing a school with in-state tuition and going to a community college for the first two years can save many thousands of dollars. They needn't go to the priciest, most prestigious college to get a good education. Let children know how much of the tab they will need to pick up through savings, working part time and perhaps student loans.
Do some homework to locate financial resources. From scholarships for the kids to Meals on Wheels for the folks, don't overlook resources that can help. Contact the local senior services agency about assistance programs for older adults. Be sure your loved one is getting all they can from their retirement benefits, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and veteran's benefits. Find out if you qualify for caregiver tax breaks. And well before children begin applying to colleges, learn about financial aid such as scholarships, work study, grants and loans.
Bring in the experts. As a dual caregiver, your financial life is complicated! Financial planners, elder law attorneys, geriatric care managers and college admission advisors can help you create a realistic budget and locate the resources for your parents and children. These services can quickly pay for themselves. And these professionals can prevent some of the emotional pitfalls so common during conversations about money, keeping things businesslike when they need to be. A poll in the June 2016 issue of Caring Right at Home showed that about half of our readers felt they could use some help in this department!
Talk to other relatives. If an ex-spouse or co-parent is partially responsible for your children's expenses, college is a good time to revisit their contribution. And are your siblings paying their fair share for the care of your elderly parents? So often, one adult son or daughter tends to be nearby when Mom needs something repaired ... or reaches for their checkbook at the pharmacy when the copay of Mom's prescription is higher than expected ... or must pay to install a wheelchair ramp and make other pricey modifications to their home if their loved one lives with them. Many of us find it hard to ask for help, but it's important to work with your siblings on a fair division of elder care expenses.
Protect your career. If you have a job outside the home, you might be tempted to resign or to cut back on your hours, especially if your children are young or your parents' care needs are great. But this can be a very bad decision for your own future financial well-being. Many caregivers report that when they later return to the workplace, it is hard to get back on track. One solution is to involve the generations in caring for one another. Depending on your living situation, the age of your children and the health of your parents, it might be possible for older children to provide more care and assistance for elderly relatives, or for senior loved ones to care for smaller children. If professional care is the better choice, talk to other family members about sharing the cost of professional in-home care.
Caregivers whose loved one has Alzheimer's disease or other dementia face extra challenges, both financial and emotional. Read the next article, "Seven Stress-Busting Tips for Alzheimer's Caregivers," to learn more.

LAS VEGAS – For a company that hasn't attended CES since 1992, Apple dominates the show.
You can't walk more than a dozen feet here at the Las Vegas Convention Center without seeing an iGadget or iAccessory of some kind. Apple's overwhelming presence by proxy is impressive, and underscores the immense place the company occupies in the consumer electronics sector.
Of the 3,000 or so exhibitors here at CES, nearly 500 reside in the iLounge pavilion, a section dedicated specifically to Apple-related products. And then there are the hundreds of audio, automotive, health, gaming, and accessory companies hawking iOS and Mac peripherals.
There are more iPhone and iPad adaptors, docks and dongles than you could possibly imagine. Vendors are showing off iPad camera rigs, solar-powered Mac batteries and even an iPhone-connected plant sensor. And then there's the sea of bedazzled and bedecked iPhone and iPad cases.
The biggest reason for this is, of course, Apple's dominating presence in the consumer electronic space. It's a lot easier for startups and established players alike to ride Apple's coattails than those of, say, Google or Microsoft.
"We know that Apple is doing well," said Howard Cheng, Just Mobile's director of operations. "We know that it's better to make Apple products than anything else."
Another advantage to going down the iRoute is Apple's tight focus on a few products and form factors. It's far easier to tailor accessories to Apple than anyone else.
"Accessory makers can reach virtually the entire installed base of iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch owners with two products, determined by the connector," the 30 pin or Lightning, said Charles Govin, an industry analyst with Forrester. "Similarly, a case maker must create many SKUs for the Android market, but essentially only three (iPhone 3G, 4, and 5) for the entire iPhone market."
The relative ease with which companies can develop peripherals for Apple is made all the more appealing by the fact Apple customers have proven themselves only too happy to shell out money to accessorize their iDevices.
"Apple owners have a demonstrated willingness to spend for accessories, cases, and other customizations," Govin said. "Essentially, the potential return on investment is more promising for Apple-related products."
CES also shows just how willing people are to build on Apple's iconic "i" branding. There's iLounge, iBattz, iSkin, iConnectivity, iPort and even iCat all within a few feet of each other on the show floor. Spend five minutes walking the floor and it becomes clear there's no need for Apple to be here. Hundreds of companies are only too happy to carry Cupertino's banner.
Apple's presence here has grown rapidly. In the three years since the iLounge Pavilion launched, the space has quadrupled to 120,000 square feet, all but taking over an entire hall and pushing the automotive industry into another space.
But does anyone wish Apple were actually here? Not really.
"I don't care," said Raymond Meng, president of iSmartAlarm. His company is releasing an iPhone-controlled home alarm system, which Meng says was inspired by the burglary of Steve Jobs' house this summer. Meng said that it doesn't matter that Apple isn't at CES with a booth or keynote, because CES is already the most successful and popular show for companies like his.
Cheng, from Just Mobile, agrees. "At this point, I don't think Apple needs to be here," he said. "They have their own events and that works for them."
Just Mobile already has eight products in the Apple Store and uses CES to expand into the international market and meet clients. As for meetings with Apple, "We visit them at their campus," Cheng said.
Of course, CES could be a much hotter destination if it had the hottest tech company involved. With Microsoft dropping out, CES is losing even more of its sizzle. But the CEA, the organization that puts on the show, says that Apple skipping out isn't a big deal.
"Apple is a CEA member. It's just their prerogative to not exhibit and they've found it more cost effective to host their own events," CEA spokeswoman Danielle Cassagnol said. "They've never keynoted or exhibited at CES, so them not being here isn't really a loss for us."
That's not entirely true, since Apple did introduce the Newton at CES in 1992, but perhaps the CEA wants to forget this fact. But the fact remains that Apple and its products are the widely seen, and discussed, at CES. It's here, even if it isn't.
"They have employees that attend the show, so in that way, Apple sort of is here," Cassognal said.

After leading the Canisius College hockey team to its most successful season in school history, Dave Smith has signed a contract extension that will keep him as head coach of the program through the 2016-17 season, announced by Director of Athletics Bill Maher on Wednesday.
Smith is set to enter his ninth season in charge of the Golden Griffin program after leading Canisius to its first conference championship during the 2012-13 campaign.
"Dave has done a tremendous job in building Canisius into a championship level program in the Atlantic Hockey Association, which was evident with the team's run to the program's first conference championship and NCAA Tournament berth in 2013," Maher said. "He continues to recruit outstanding student-athletes who represent what is best about Canisius, both on and off the ice. This past season was another positive step for Canisius College hockey and we are thrilled that Dave will lead the program as we continue building on last season's success."
Smith has continued to lead the Golden Griffin program to new heights as head coach. During the 2012-13 campaign, Canisius won its first Atlantic Hockey title with a 7-2 win over Mercyhurst, advancing to the NCAA East Regional Semifinal. The Griffs also finished the season ranked 19th in the final USCHO.com Division I poll, the program's highest placement in the national rankings.
Success off the ice has become just as common under Smith's watch. The hockey team currently owns a cumulative GPA of 3.42 – the highest of any team at Canisius – and three student-athletes have been honored as Atlantic Hockey Top Scholar Athlete in the last seven seasons.
In addition, Canisius received national attention after the success of 2011 graduate Cory Conacher. The 2009-10 Atlantic Hockey Player of the Year, Conacher became the first Griff to play in the National Hockey League when he totaled 29 points, 11 goals and 18 assists in 47 games with the Tampa Bay Lightning and Ottawa Senators this past season.
Overall, 19 Griffs have signed professional contracts after playing under Smith at Canisius, highlighted by Conacher and defender Carl Hudson inking NHL deals. Hudson became the first Griff to join an NHL franchise when he signed with the Florida Panthers after graduating in 2010.
"Susan and I are thrilled and very thankful for the opportunity to continue to play a role at Canisius College." Smith said. "We are already looking forward to next season and building on the success of our program. I am very grateful to the Canisius community because of the commitment it has shown to developing leaders both on and off the ice. President Hurley, Bill Maher and John Maddock have been great leaders for Griffs hockey and it is a really exciting time for our program."
Before joining Canisius, Smith spent three seasons as the associate head coach and recruiting coordinator at Mercyhurst College, helping the Lakers to two league titles and two NCAA Tournament appearances. He has also served stints as an assistant coach at both Bowling Green and Miami.
Smith graduated from Ohio State in 1992 with a degree in journalism/public relations and then spent the next six years playing professionally. Smith and his wife, Susan, have two daughters, Ellis and Kylie, and reside in Amherst, N.Y.

10 Fun Shoebox Projects to Do With Your Kids

Shoeboxes are the perfect size. They're big enough to inspire imagination, but small enough to be a manageable project and easily stored at the end of the day. You can even use a shoebox to store a project. Play games, construct objects—the sky's the limit.
A shoebox adventure is multi-dimensional, whether you make a mini-theater, a zoo, a fish tank or something your kids haven't imagined yet. You and your kids can create characters and a backstory, make a shoebox "home" where they can come to life and then enter into your imaginary world again and again for hours of fun, creative play.

I had the biggest craving for red velvet pancakes the other day so I asked my twin and sister if they'd be down to go to Larchmont Bungalow… they said yes!
The tragic mess below is a not-so-great vegetarian benedict. The potatoes were pretty bitchin' though.
And this is what I wore. Before groans ensue, outfit photos will not be a regular occurrence on this blog. They make me feel a bit stupid and narcissistic but I wanted to show I don't always dress like a dude…I wear dresses, too!
Yesterday was National Dog Day and I let Lily hang out in my lap longer than usual. We watched Jackass 2.5 together (I'm pretty sure your opinion of me just dropped but I'm OK with that).
The last photo was taken a few days ago when I washed her bed. Even though she had another one in the living room, she chose to stay near me on the floor. Seriously, I love her.
I'm off to eat falafels. Love those, too.

Kagbeni appears over the ledge of a hillside vista like a fantasy village dreamt up by C.S. Lewis. Perched on a small isthmus in the valley, its glistening green fields glow against the drab colors of the rocky plateau. It's an oasis in the middle of a veritable desert. Teetering on the edge of a cliff below the harsh white peaks of the world's largest mountains, Kagbeni is the end of the road – the final frontier of sorts.
No foreigner is admitted past the borders of this remote town. Beyond, lies the world's last "Forbidden Kingdom."
On the way into town, a man sells fossils found amidst the rubble of the Himalayas' greatest rift. Above him, a sign warns foreigners from venturing past Kagbeni. The fine for entering upper Mustang (the "Forbidden Kingdom"): $500 USD per day.
The streets of Kagbeni are lined with Tibetan prayer wheels. Devotees spend their free moments marching through the town, spinning wheels as they mutter chants. The sky above is peppered with the bold-colored prayer flags that wave in the wind until they've disintegrated back into the breeze.
Below the rainbow of colors are hidden alleyways of an ancient city. Stone barns sit next to mud brick houses. Back alley corners hide erotic phalluses and a piecemeal settlement that straddles gushing, milky blue rivers.
The walled-in town feels medieval. Ancient. Like a time warp to another era.
Life here is methodical. It's ritualistic. It's hard. The winter is long and there are no Western comforts to make it more bearable. Kids play in the brisk cobblestone streets until their rosy cheeks turn so red, you'd swear they'd burst. Women walk in sandals with no socks until their feet stiffen into solid blocks.
Drunks and beggars prey on the piety of generous Llamaists and wandering pilgrims.
In the afternoon, women sit on their roofs to take in the heat of the sun and avoid the walloping winds that race through the deep valley walls of the Kali Gandaki.
But, it's the sounds of sunset that are unforgettable.
As the blazing sun cuts its path through the Himalayan Range, the delicate drone of devout Llamaists echoes throughout the valley. A dreamlike warmth blankets the frosty town in this violet hour and magic feels very real.

SARASOTA, Fla. -- Promising to give a Sarasota audience "the whole load" of his GOP criticism, Vice President Joe Biden unloaded a barrage of derision Wednesday over a Romney campaign ad alleging that American automakers are planning to move manufacturing overseas to China.
Calling the Jeep ad "one of the most flagrantly dishonest ads I can ever remember in my political career," Biden called the allegation - which has been widely disputed by fact checkers and by the auto companies themselves - "an outrageous lie."
"All my time I have never heard an American corporation in the waning hours of the campaign engage with that kind of description of what a presidential candidate's doing," Biden said after quoting a General Motors statement calling the Romney ad "campaign politics at its cynical worst."
Responding to Biden's criticism, Romney adviser Kevin Madden said "We've got an ad out that we believe makes the case for why Gov. Romney would be stronger for the auto industry and why the auto industry's an important part of a strong economy. They've got an ad that they're using to make their case to the public, and we'll leave that with voters."
In Sarasota, Biden claimed that auto workers in Ohio have been frightened about losing their jobs because of the ad, calling United Auto Workers representatives to ask if its allegations are true.
"Folks, the president's job is not to show confusion," he said. "It's to plant the seeds of confidence."
The vice president's remarks to a crowd of over a thousand came 1100 miles away from the rust belt cities where the Romney ad is on the air, emphasizing how strongly the Obama team hopes to push back against the commercial and make its claims into a character issue for Romney. President Barack Obama is not on the campaign trail today, traveling in New Jersey with GOP governor Chris Christie to survey damage from SuperStorm Sandy.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - One in five teens who lost one of their parents to cancer cut or burn themselves, compared to one in ten teens with two living parents, according to a new Swedish study.
"We were very surprised to find that so many did it," said lead researcher Tove Grenklo, a behavioral scientist at the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm.
Cutting and burning is thought to be how some troubled teens express their emotions, according to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. Those teens may hurt themselves if they can't talk about their feelings, are upset or have low self esteem.
Earlier this year, a study found that children start harming themselves as early as third grade. (see Reuters Health article of June 11, 2012. reut.rs/Kveo8v)
The study's researchers write in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine that past research showed children with one dead parent are already more likely to have - among other things - psychiatric problems, depression, drug and alcohol abuse and anxiety.
Grenklo and her colleagues wanted to see if they were also more likely to hurt themselves.
For the study, they used Sweden's national death databases to find and survey teens who lost one of their parents to cancer between 2000 and 2003, when they were between 13 and 16.
They then found teens who still had two living parents for a comparison group.
Of the 851 teens who lost a parent, 622 returned their survey, as did 330 of the 451 teens in the comparison group.
Overall, about 20 percent of the teens with only one surviving parent said they hurt themselves, compared to about 10 percent of teens with both parents living.
"This study is one of the first to establish that (losing a parent to cancer) might be a unique risk factor for this behavior," said Stephen Lewis, who was not involved with the new study but has studied self-injury at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada.
Lewis added that the study's findings seem to be in line with other estimates of how many teens injure themselves.
The researchers say teens may be driven to self-injure after their parents' deaths by an increased sense of emotional distress and numbness.
Another possible explanation for the increase is that the teens lost a caretaker who would notice their emotional suffering and prevent self-injury, they add.
As for prevention, both Grenklo and Lewis emphasized communication.
"I'm a strong believer that we should talk with each other," said Grenklo. "Children need to know the facts of what happened and why. And that it's OK to be sad and talk about the diseased parent."
"We know one of the reasons people self injure is that they use injuring as a way to release their emotions," said Lewis, who added that it's important for parents, family members and teachers to know how to talk about self-injury and how to prevent it.
Lewis said information on preventing and handling self injury can be found at SIOutreach.org - a Web site where he is co-director.

This is soooo sad. Why don't they put out more media requests for information regarding the person of interest. I have seen too little about this case in the media for a child to have been missing for a MONTH!! Everyone in Charlottesville should be talking about this and they are not. Can we get some national media coverage to help find Deshad or Erik McFadden?

To prevent the future creation of lots of duplicate threads about the Commend/Report/Ban/Mute logic, I'm creating this sticky. Put all of your feedback around those topics in this thread only.
Low Priority Queue Logic
After a certain amount of Abandons (usually on your second abandon) or Reports you will be send into LPQ for a period of time.
The more abandons you have, the longer your time in LPQ will be.
The more reports you have, the longer your time in LPQ will be.
The shorter the window of time or games in between your games is, the longer your time in LPQ will be.
Note that there is no distiction between Abandons because of technical difficulties, real-life issues and those that were done on purpose (e.g. rage).
One reason for that is that there is no reliable way of telling which is the cause of an abandon. The other - more important - reason is that any abandon regardless of reasons impact the quality of the game of the remaining 9 players.
No LPQ time will be removed!
