MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- International charity and educational partner Free The Children, in partnership with Title sponsors Cheerios, Green Giant and Yoplait, announced the second group of names joining the star-studded lineup set to inspire 18,000 students who have earned their way through service to attend the first-ever We Day Minnesota at the Xcel Energy Center on October 8.
Sharing their passion for change, international experiences and energizing the crowd with unforgettable performances will be multi-platinum, chart-topping artists the Jonas Brothers and Carly Rae Jepsen along with renowned speakers including Barbara Pierce Bush, award-winning actress and activist Mia Farrow, international activists and Free The Children co-founders, Craig and Marc Kielburger. Also joining via Skype for an important message will be award-winning singer-songwriter and Free The Children ambassador, Demi Lovato.
Considering We Day has been called the Super Bowl for service, the event's all-star roster will fittingly include NFL players from the Minnesota Vikings and other local dignitaries and personalities, including We Day co-chairs and siblings, Dean Phillips and Hutton Phillips, the Governor of Minnesota, Mark Dayton, Minnesota Commissioner of Education, Brenda Cassellius, Mayor of St. Paul, Chris Coleman, Jack Jablonski and spoken word poet and rapper Dessa.
In the year of the 50th anniversary of his father's memorable I Have a Dream speech, an exciting addition to the lineup is human rights advocate Martin Luther King III, who will be speaking at all We Day events across North America in 2013.
Leading the electrified crowd as a co-host will be platinum selling artist and star of Disney's Good Luck Charlie, Bridgit Mendler.
The full list of speakers and performers announced to date includes:
"I had the opportunity this past summer to participate with Free The Children's communities in Kenya, and see first-hand the lasting impact that youth in North America are making through their charitable work," said Joe Jonas from the Grammy®-nominated, multi-platinum band the Jonas Brothers. "I understand what it means to these communities to have access to clean water and an education and I was thrilled to get involved by committing to help build two schools overseas with Free The Children. It may seem like a simple assignment to make one local and one global commitment, but these efforts fundamentally impact the lives of people around the world."
We Day is a stadium-sized educational event and a movement of young people leading local and global change. We Day is tied to the year-long program, We Act, which supports students and educators with free educational resources, student-led campaigns and support materials to help turn the event's inspiration into sustained activation. Since 2007, youth involved in the We Act program have raised $37 million dollars for over 1,000 local and global causes and logged more than 9.6 million volunteer hours.
The 2013/2014 We Day season will be the largest season to date. We Day will see more than 160,000 in attendance in 12 cities across North America, and internationally for the first time with We Day UK in spring 2014, truly making this a global movement for change.
We Day and the We Act program are free of charge to the thousands of students and educators in attendance at the event and state-wide, thanks to the generous support of sponsors led in Minnesota by Title Sponsors Cheerios, Green Giant and Yoplait along with other supporters, including Bremer Bank, the Otto Bremer Foundation, The Edward J. Phillips Family Foundation and the Carlson Family Foundation.

Brighton police release images of men wanted in connection with March for England violence
1:51pm Monday 21st May 2012 in News
Pictures have been released of five people wanted by police investigating violence which flared during the March for England through Brighton last month.
A 10-year-old girl and two police officers were injured after bottles were hurled at the fifth annual nationalist gathering.
The event attracted counter-demonstrations by anti-fascist protesters, leading to three arrests following ugly exchanges on April 22.
Sussex Police said there was a "considerable level of violence" directed at the 140 marchers and attempts were made to block them at several points along the route.
Today, officers issued pictures of five people they want to question over the trouble. All are suspected of throwing bottles, cans or containers at police officers and crowds.
Mounted police were drafted in to maintain calm but Superintendent Steve Whitton said it was clear some people were intent on not protesting peacefully.
He said: "We were able to restrain these groups and individuals with a firm, robust but fair policing response but this did require a major police presence at several points."
The three people arrested were all men who were not connected to the march. All were detained on suspicion of public order offences at separate points along the route.
One was later released without charge and the other two, both aged 20 - one from Brighton and one from Worthing, West Sussex - are on police bail pending further inquiries.
Police said they were also investigating a report of common assault on a 43-year-old man who was walking behind the march when he was allegedly grabbed.

Cellar/Tasting Notes Deep ruby-red. Aromas and flavors of dark raspberry, iron, tobacco and licorice. Densely packed but juicy too, with terrific definition for such a youthful wine. This is the Bond wine from the lowest-altitude site. Closed today but already quite sexy. Like the Quella, this is most impressive..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Good bright ruby. Reticent but powerful nose hints at dark berries, licorice, mint and bitter chocolate, conveying a strong impression of gravel. Plush on entry, then large-scaled and generous in the middle but with little in the way of easy sweetness. Seems riper than the preceding wines, and..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "How much fun collectors will have comparing the 2007 and 2008 La Joies over the next three decades. A blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec (48% from Alexander Valley Mountain Estate, 34% from Chalk Hill and 18% from Knight's Valley), the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A blend of 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 3% Malbec (52% Chalk Hill, 45% Alexander Mountain Estate and 3% Bennett Valley fruit), the 2008 may have even greater intensity and richness than the 2007. Still young and unformed, it exhibits phenomenal richness and equilibrium as well as a finish..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2008 vintage presented challenges for Cabernet Sauvignon, but this Cabernet Franc-based blend succeeds wildly. It's bone dry, tannic and enormously complex, with flavors of sour-cherry candy, red currant, licorice and spicy cola. Ninety-five percent new oak lends this a wonderful toastiness...
Cellar/Tasting Notes Not surprisingly, the 2006 is a bigger, more muscular, less charming effort displaying unbridled power, full-bodied richness, and notes of new saddle leather, black fruits, roasted herbs, and burning embers. Powerful and rich with sweet tannin, low acidity, and more structure and density than the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Good ruby-red. Nuanced aromas of blackberry, minerals, licorice and wild herbs; a bit more medicinal in character than the 2008 version. Quite closed and inexpressive following the recent bottling, but concentrated dark fruit flavors show a lovely light touch, with mineral and floral notes..

In-depth BiographyMuse's fusion of progressive rock, electronica, and Radiohead-influenced experimentation is crafted by guitarist/vocalist Matthew Bellamy, bassist Chris Wolstenholme, and drummer Dominic Howard. Bored by the sleepy life provided by their hometown of Teignmouth, Devon, the three British friends began playing music together. They started the first incarnation of their band while only 13 years old, changing the name of the group from Gothic Plague to Fixed Penalty to Rocket Baby Dolls as time passed. By 1997, the bandmates settled on the name Muse and released their self-titled debut EP on Dangerous Records, followed by the Muscle Museum EP in 1998. The group's emotive, passionate sound and live presence drew critical acclaim and industry buzz, and Muse signed a deal with Maverick Records after a trip to New York's CMJ festival. The singles "Cave" and "Uno" preceded their debut full-length album, Showbiz, which was released toward the end of 1999. Two years later, Muse issued The Origin of Symmetry and had a major hit with "Hyper Music."
In 2002, fans were treated to a combination rarities/live set, the double-disc Hullabaloo Soundtrack. Muse's fourth album, Absolution, got the usual royal treatment upon its late-2003 release, and stateside fans finally got a taste when it was released on Warner Bros. the following March. A short North American tour in the spring of 2004 coincided with Muse's spot on the fifth annual Coachella Music and Arts Festival. Their fifth effort, 2006's Black Holes and Revelations, marked the band's brightest, most dynamic set of material to date, topping the U.K. album charts within its first week and earning Muse their second consecutive number one album. In America, Black Holes and Revelations broke into the Top Ten. Muse toured Europe, America, Australia, and Southeast Asia in support of the album, and their dynamic stage performance (which has won the band multiple awards for Best Live Act, including accolades from the NME Awards, the Q Awards, and the Vodafone Live Music Awards) was captured on 2008's H.A.A.R.P. Live from Wembley. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide

Report: Chavez is paraplegic, and was transferred from Cuba back to Venezuela because doctors couldn't do anything more for him (February 21).
Government response: Officials have not specifically addressed this claim, but have repeatedly accused Marquina and others of waging a disinformation campaign.
Validity: The public hasn't seen evidence of Chavez walking in months. The only photos released of him recently show him laying down on a pillow. But it cannot be confirmed that he is paraplegic. Marquina first warned that paralysis was a possibility in December.
Report: Chavez is likely showing signs of renal failure and lung infection (January 3).
Government reponse: That same day, National Assembly President Diosdado Cabello said, "Don't fall victim to the opposition's rumors. ... They have bad intentions every time they talk." The government had already said there was a lung infection, but only later spoke about respiratory insufficiency.
Validity: The seriousness of the lung infection was confirmed as Chavez battled it for weeks, but little has been said that could confirm that he is having kidney problems, too.
Nelson Bocaranda, investigative journalist
Report: Ever since returning from Venezuela, Chavez remains the same, tired and ailing from the trip, which was never recommended (February 21).
Government response: Officials trumpeted Chavez's return to Venezuela, but have not given reasons behind the move. "Thank God! Thank you dear people! Here we continue the treatment," a post on Chavez's Twitter account said that day.
Validity: Bocaranda says the return was never recommended. Marquina says it was because doctors could do no more. Blasco says the Cuban government was pushing for the return. They can't all be right.
Report: Only a handful of people -- Chavez's family, the Castro brothers and medical staff -- could visit Chavez in Cuba. Even Maduro and Cabello were limited to short visits with their president. There were metal detectors, no cell phones allowed, and Chavez's medical information is under lock and key (February 7)
Government response: In January, Information Minister Ernesto Villegas insisted that Chavez was still very much in charge of the country, meeting with leaders and making key decisions. Maduro and Cabello traveled to Cuba several times to visit Chavez.
Validity: There is a contradiction here. If access Chavez was truly so limited, it makes it less plausible that Chavez was holding meetings and directing the country from his hospital room. If security was so tight, leaking information seems like a risky endeavor.
Report: Chavez has emphysema and has lost 70 pounds (February 6).
Government response: The government has spoken at length about a "respiratory insufficiency" that Chavez suffers, but has not said exactly what is causing it.
Validity: It is certain that Chavez has lung problems, but the details of what they are and how long they have affected him remains unknown. Only a few photos have been released of Chavez since his December surgery, and it is difficult to tell how much weight the president may have lost.

Maine Shrimp Chowder
- 3 lb. very fresh Maine shrimp in their shells
- 2 oz smoked slab bacon, diced about 1/4 inch
- one large leek, white part only, rinsed and diced about 1/4 inch
- 3 medium russet potatoes, peeled, quartered lengthwise, and sliced about 1/2 inch thick
- 3 cups of shrimp broth
- sea salt, fresh-milled black pepper, and cayenne
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup rich cream (preferably not ultra-pasteurized; it really does make difference)
- about 2 tablespoons snipped chives
- New England common crackers
For the chowder base
Shell the shrimp and reserve the heads and tail shells for the broth.
Poach bacon in simmering water for one minute, drain and reserve.
'Try' the bacon over moderate flame in a heavy non-reacting soup pot until some fat has been rendered and the bacon pieces begin to color. Add the diced leeks and potatoes, stir, and cover. Cook about five minutes over moderate-low flame without browning, stirring occasionally. Add the shrimp broth and simmer about eight minutes, or until the potato pieces are tender and crumble easily when pressed. Season with sea salt, a generous grating of the peppermill, and a pinch of cayenne. Keep chowder base warm.
To finish the chowder
Melt the butter over moderate flame in a heavy non-reacting skillet. When the foam subsides, increase the heat to high, add the shrimp meats, and sautée over high flame just until shrimp meats begin to 'set' and become opaque, about one minute. In a separate saucepan, heat the cream to scald. Pour the hot cream over the shrimps, swirling the pan to combine. Add the cream mixture to the hot chowder base, stirring gently. Off heat, cover the chowder and allow it to ripen for ten minutes in a warm place. Adjust the seasoning and serve in heated soup plates. Sprinkle with snipped fresh chives, and serve plenty of common crackers on the side.
For the shrimp broth:
Place the shrimp heads and tail shells in a non-reacting saucepan and add enough cold water to just cover the shells. (Don't be concerned about any shrimp eggs that may be present. The broth won't be affected.) Bring to a simmer over high flame, then reduce the flame to low and gently simmer the broth uncovered about five minutes, skimming off the foam as it rises. Strain through a colander lined with three layers of cheesecloth.
Search Maine restaurants to find Fore Street and other destinations for fine seafood, chowder and lobster dining from award-winning chefs, and turn your trip to Maine into a culinary vacation.
Recipe courtesy of Chef Sam Hayward at Fore Street in Portland, Maine.

Colorado Springs administers several programs to distribute federal funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
In fact, there's a pool of about $700,000 available to help area residents install new windows, doors, furnaces, water heaters and other necessities. It's distributed by the city's Housing Development Division.
Loans are available to low- and moderate-income residents. There's also money for landlords to help rehab rental units they own. And for folks needing to make their homes handicapped accessible.
There's just one problem. Few people are applying for the rehab funds.
We're talking loans with 3 percent interest rates to those who qualify. Some can get loans with no interest!
All you have to do is apply. The first step is calling the city's rehab coordinator, Eileen McMullen, at 385-6877 or the main office at 385-5912.
McMullen and her office will talk about what's available — the city won't buy hot tubs or water sprinklers. But it will lend money for windows, doors, roofs, furnaces, hot water heaters and more.
For owner-occupied properties needing rehab, go to this link at the city's Web site.
For landlords wanting to rehab rental property, the criteria can be found here.
And find information about handicapped accessibility at this link.

A student-authored statement guides all our actions, behavior, and conduct at Deerfield Academy. It reads:
"I will act with respect, honesty, and concern for others and will seek to inspire the same values in our community and beyond."
This statement should be regarded as the single most important rule at Deerfield.
Any community can survive only in an atmosphere where honesty—and the trust that results—is a guiding principle; at Deerfield we value honesty above all. Dishonesty is a breach of trust and subjects a student to disciplinary action. In the case of lying during a disciplinary hearing, students may be liable for dismissal.

Prayer as sanity and balance
Friday, 08 February 2013 00:00
Our generative years are a marathon, not a sprint, and so it's difficult to sustain graciousness, generosity and patience through the tiredness, trials and temptations that beset us through the years of our adult lives. All on our own, relying on willpower alone, we too often fatigue, get worn down, and compromise both our maturity and our discipleship.
Confession: Celebration of mercy, not trial before prosecution
Friday, 08 February 2013 00:00
Priests hearing confessions need to replace any negative or aggressive attitudes with meekness and mercy toward the penitent, said a Vatican expert on confession.
Catholic schools: Educating, nurturing for the common good
Friday, 01 February 2013 00:00
A Catholic education is an advantage for life. There is abundant research to uphold the validity of this statement as well as the informal opinions of parents and graduates of Catholic schools.
The intelligence inside of the aging process
Friday, 25 January 2013 00:00
What can God and nature have had in mind when they designed the aging process? Why is it that just when our mental prowess, our human maturity, and our emotional freedom are at their peak, the body begins to fall apart?

Nicholas Lash, in a deeply insightful essay on God and unbelief, suggests that the God that atheists reject is often simply an idol of their own imaginations.

Architectural motifs create unity in design in this Italian-style kitchen. Arches repeat in the kitchen's design, creating work zones over the sink and range walls as well as visual interest in doorways and windows. Even the cabinetry toe kicks echo the room's arch theme. Reclaimed wood beams span the ceiling and copper wraps around the range hood, cementing the kitchen's Old World feel and drawing the eye upward. To maintain a furniture look, the designer chose a warm wood tone for the kitchen island and cabinetry in sage green with a cocoa patina for the walls. Panels conceal an integrated refrigerator, freezer and dishwasher. Posts lining the kitchen island, large crown molding topping the cabinets, and a separate red hutch for storage also help maintain the unfitted look of this Italianate kitchen.

SOLAR CELL: The silicon in photovoltaic cells transforms incoming light into electricity rather than heat.

The Best Science Writing Online 2012
Showcasing more than fifty of the most provocative, original, and significant online essays from 2011, The Best Science Writing Online 2012 will change the way...
Read More »
The sun—that power plant in the sky—bathes Earth in ample energy to fulfill all the world's power needs many times over. It doesn't give off carbon dioxide emissions. It won't run out. And it's free.
So how on Earth can people turn this bounty of sunbeams into useful electricity?
The sun's light (and all light) contains energy. Usually, when light hits an object the energy turns into heat, like the warmth you feel while sitting in the sun. But when light hits certain materials the energy turns into an electrical current instead, which we can then harness for power.
Old-school solar technology uses large crystals made out of silicon, which produces an electrical current when struck by light. Silicon can do this because the electrons in the crystal get up and move when exposed to light instead of just jiggling in place to make heat. The silicon turns a good portion of light energy into electricity, but it is expensive because big crystals are hard to grow.
Newer materials use smaller, cheaper crystals, such as copper-indium-gallium-selenide, that can be shaped into flexible films. This "thin-film" solar technology, however, is not as good as silicon at turning light into electricity.
Right now, solar energy only accounts for a tiny portion of the U.S.'s total electricity generation, because it is more expensive than alternatives like cheap but highly polluting coal. Solar power is about five times as expensive as what people pay for the current that comes out of the outlets.
In order to have a hope of replacing fossil fuels, scientists need to develop materials that can be easily mass-produced and convert enough sunlight to electricity to be worth the investment.
We asked Paul Alivisatos, deputy laboratory director at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California and a leader of their Helios solar energy research project, to explain how people capture energy from sunlight and how we can do it better.
[An edited transcript of the interview follows.]
What is a solar cell?
A solar cell is a device people can make that takes the energy of sunlight and converts it into electricity.
How does a solar cell turn sunlight into electricity?
In a crystal, the bonds [between silicon atoms] are made of electrons that are shared between all of the atoms of the crystal. The light gets absorbed, and one of the electrons that's in one of the bonds gets excited up to a higher energy level and can move around more freely than when it was bound. That electron can then move around the crystal freely, and we can get a current.
Imagine that you have a ledge, like a shelf on the wall, and you take a ball and you throw it up on that ledge. That's like promoting an electron to a higher energy level, and it can't fall down. A photon [packet of light energy] comes in, and it bumps up the electron onto the ledge [representing the higher energy level] and it stays there until we can come and collect the energy [by using the electricity].
What's the biggest difference between how a plant captures light energy and how we do it with solar cells?
We wish we could do what plants do because plants absorb the light, and [they use] that electron to change a chemical bond inside the plant to actually make fuel.
Could you do artificial photosynthesis and emulate a plant?
We would love to be able to make a solar cell that instead of making electricity makes fuel. That would be a very big advance. It's a very active topic right now among researchers, but it's hard to predict when we will be able to use it.

Julie Hermann promised to help Rutgers' athletic program bounce back after an abuse scandal rattled the university and drew national attention.
But now the woman tapped to turn around the troubled program is facing abuse allegations herself.
Hermann's appointment as the school's athletic director came more than a month after a video of a Rutgers coach hurling basketballs and yelling homophobic slurs prompted the coach's firing, the resignation of the school's athletic director and sharp criticism from New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
"It is a new day," Hermann told reporters on May 15. "(The problem) is already fixed, and there is no one that doesn't agree about how we treat young people with respect and dignity and build trust."
But a group of former volleyball players said Hermann used a different approach when she coached them at the University of Tennessee in the 1990s: "mental cruelty."
In a letter written in 1997 and obtained by the The Star-Ledger newspaper, members of the team purportedly claimed that Hermann called players "whores, alcoholics and learning disabled."
Verbal abuse from Hermann became so intense, they claimed, that the team banded together to write the letter, calling the situation "irreconcilable." After the team presented the letter to Hermann, she chose to stop coaching them, according to the newspaper's report.
In a written statement released Monday, Hermann said her former students' comments are "heartbreaking." She denied the allegations of abuse and vowed to push ahead in her new role.
"I was never notified of the reported letter outlining the concerns of some former athletes. However, I am truly sorry that some were disappointed during my tenure as coach," she said. "For sure, I was an intense coach, but there is a vast difference between high intensity and abusive behavior."
Hermann said her commitment to students' success has been firm throughout her career.
"Over the years, I have tried to learn from each mistake, including the lessons I learned as a young coach," she said. "I have become a stronger leader, administrator, and educator as a result. If you look at my 25-year career in athletics, I believe the record shows I am a steadfast advocate for student athletes. I intend to take that passion and hard-earned experience into my leadership role as athletic director of Rutgers University."
Rutgers University President Robert l. Barchi said Monday that he stands by the school's choice.
"Rutgers was deliberative at every stage of this process," he said in a written statement. "Over the course of the search, Julie's record established her as a proven leader in athletics administration with a strong commitment to academic success as well as athletic excellence, and a strong commitment to the well-being of student athletes."
Word that Rutgers picked Hermann to turn around the school's athletic program after an abuse scandal came as a surprise to Kim Obiala, one of the players who said she wrote the letter about her coaching in 1997.
"I think my first reaction was, 'Hey, isn't that ironic?' Of all the people that they can hire, (they pick) someone who's actually done that kind of thing to me and to others," Obiala told CNN's "Starting Point" on Monday. "Over the years, she might have changed and learned her lesson. Back then, she was a similar coach."
Players whom Hermann coached were pushed to a breaking point, Obiala said.
"You have to keep it on the court. Once you attack someone outside the court, where you're attacking their personality, who they are as a person, that's where you've crossed the line. There's no reason for that," she said. "I've definitely had such tough coaches that have pushed me beyond my physical limits. But this was more mental and psychological."
A University of Tennessee spokeswoman declined to comment.
The abuse allegations once again drew the attention of New Jersey's governor.
"He's not going to make any judgments at this time, but he expects to be talking with the Rutgers administration this week to get the details," said Michael Drewniak, a spokesman for Christie.
Another allegation from Hermann's past came up at a news conference after Rutgers announced her hiring.
In 1997, a jury awarded $150,000 to a former Tennessee assistant coach who claimed that she was fired because she was pregnant.
To make her case, the former assistant coach, Ginger Hineline, gave a copy of her wedding video to The Star-Ledger.
"I hope it's good tonight," Hermann, then a bridesmaid at the wedding, says in the video. "Because I know you've been waiting for a while, but I hope it's not too good, because I don't want you to come back February with any surprises, you know, the office and all, and it would be hard to have a baby in there."
Asked about the video at a news conference this month, Hermann appeared taken aback.

Packers LB Desmond Bishop: DPOY or Playing for a Different Team?
This story from Tyler Dunne in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel about Packers linebacker Desmond Bishop is extremely well written. After reading it, you can't help but like the guy even more than you probably already do.
In the story, Bishop says one of his goals is to win defensive player of the year in 2013.
Unfortunately, as entertaining as the story is, it doesn't really address the main question I have about Bishop as the Packers open OTAs: What are the odds that he's actually on the team once the season starts?
Reports surfaced during the NFL draft that the Packers were trying to trade Bishop. Several moves the Packers made in the offseason — bringing back A.J. Hawk, re-signing Brad Jones for $4 million, adding another inside linebacker in the draft — made it appear that the Packers might not be too confident in Bishop's chances of returning from the torn hamstring he suffered last preseason.
"Trade or release Bishop?" you're probably asking. "But I thought he was supposed to boost the Packers physicality and automatically improve the inside linebacker corp?"
In a perfect world, that's exactly what would happen. But how perfect is the Packers' world when it comes to injuries lately? Not very. J.C. Tretter, one of Green Bay's fourth-round draft picks, just snapped his ankle in a fumble-recovery drill. Two of the past three seasons have seen the team ravaged by injuries. The scuttle around the Packers is that Ted Thompson won't hesitate to jettison players who are hampered by injuries.

It amazes me how certain types of people could possibly believe that paying a worker more can end it for a business.
I know there's the "MATH" but what has this country come to when certain types see it as a SIN to pay a worker a healthy wage?
If you can't "afford" to pay your employers a good wage, especially considering inflation, then you have no BUSINESS starting your own BUSINESS. Some bosses (term used loosely) sure have forgotten what it was like to be the worker.
The same goes for those "poor, little" CEOs and those "horrible, dreaded" tax hikes. If a CEO or Company president/owner can't handle a tax hike, then he/she has NO business running a company in the first place.
Look at it this way. I don't see any of your Trumps, Zuckerbergs, or Papa John Schnatters holding up any "homeless" signs.
BTW...I think teachers deserve to be paid better.
My wife is highly educated with an MBA and all she can make is 45K a year? Now that's sad! With all of the hours and weekends she works I doubt it's MW. Ha

SOURCE Parkinson's Disease Foundation
Emphasizes Critical Role of Care Partners in Parkinson's Research During National Family Caregivers Month
NEW YORK, Nov. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As part of National Family Caregivers Month this November, the Parkinson's Disease Foundation® (PDF®) asks care partners to play their part in helping to find the cure for Parkinson's disease by visiting www.pdf.org/pair.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111101/DC97663LOGO)
"When our loved ones are first diagnosed, we as care partners may feel helpless, as if there is nothing we can do to fight Parkinson's disease," says Richard Hoffmann, Pharm.D., a PDF Research Advocate who works as an advisor to the US Food and Drug Administration. "But we have an intimate understanding of Parkinson's disease and a sense of urgency that few others can offer. I encourage my fellow care partners to realize that they too can help change the future for our loved ones."
Despite promising research, there is neither a cure for Parkinson's disease nor are there medications that can reverse its course. But there can be. To get there, people living with Parkinson's disease and their care partners must be primary partners in research alongside scientists, industry and government. As a signature program of PDF, Parkinson's Advocates in Research is making this partnership a reality.
Many of PDF's Research Advocates are care partners who are working on the frontlines with researchers to solve the challenges of Parkinson's disease. They volunteer as healthy controls for clinical trials, educate their communities about research and advise professionals designing studies. PDF invites care partners to join the Parkinson's Advocates in Research program by applying to an upcoming training by Monday, December 16 or by taking its online course, both available at www.pdf.org/pair.
"Care partners have unique insights to offer professionals who are developing new therapies, including a passion and commitment that few others possess," said Veronica Todaro, M.P.H., PDF's Vice President, National Programs. "This November, we ask care partners to help us change research. Their contributions are essential to bringing about better treatments at a faster pace."
Learn how care partners and their loved ones living with Parkinson's disease are changing research at www.pdf.org/pair.
About Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects nearly one million people in the US. Although promising research is being conducted, there is currently no cure for Parkinson's.
About PDF's Programs for Care Partners
As the population of the US ages, the incidence of Parkinson's disease is expected to increase. This will affect the number of people needed to care for people living with Parkinson's disease. To support this growing population, PDF offers programming and services for care partners, including a toll-free HelpLine available at (800) 457-6676, an online seminar held annually during National Family Caregivers Month and print resources geared toward care partner needs. To learn more, visit www.pdf.org/caregivers_month.
Parkinson's Disease Foundation®
The Parkinson's Disease Foundation® (PDF®) is a leading national presence in Parkinson's disease research, education and public advocacy. We are working for the nearly one million people in the US who live with Parkinson's disease by funding promising scientific research while supporting people living with Parkinson's disease through educational programs and services. Since its founding in 1957, PDF has dedicated over $100 million to fund the work of leading scientists throughout the world and over $42 million to support national education and advocacy initiatives.

Mr. HART moved to take up his bill [S. 274] to legalize the incorporation of a Baptist Association in Gibson County. He said he had letters from citizens of his County, urging the passage of this bill, who would not ask anything unjust, or anything that is not right. They were from an ex-Congressman, from the Treasurer, and the Auditor of the County and from many of the best citizens known to him personally, and the writers say the bill seeks simply to correct a mistake made by an attorney in drawing up papers for the Association; therefore he hoped the bill would be passed. It affects nobody but the Association, and it is but just and right that it should pass.
The motion was agreed to, and the bill being read the second time with a Committee report recommending that it lie on the table--
Mr. HART moved to amend the report of the Committee so it shall read favorable to the passage of the bill.
Mr. MENZIES favored the motion. The bill is intended to make clear the title of some real estate this Association has.
Mr. VOYLES, as a member of the Committee, the bill is very broad in its terms, and the Committee were not satisfied but what there might be an effort in it to kill off some pending litigation, or in some way affect what might be termed vested rights.
Mr. FOSTER understood there is a division among the people down there about the propriety of this bill, and therefore he thought it ought not to pass, but that the report of the Committee should be concurred in.
On motion by Mr. HART, it was referred to a Special Committee of three, which the Lieutenant Governor made to consist of Messrs. Hart, Sayre and Ristine.
