The Braintree My Pinnacle Network, is scheduled for the first Tuesday of the month, from 8:30 a.m. – 10 a.m. at 25 Braintree Hill Office Park, Suite 200, Braintree, MA 02184.
Welcome to a completely new approach to networking.
No stress and no obligation please attend our next "business to business" networking meeting and determine if this is a good fit for you.
The business model is based on a simple premise. Most people buy from someone they know, like and trust. And they buy from those referred and introduced to them by someone they know like and trust.
Service professionals such as accountants, lawyers, financial planners, printers, sales coaches and more than 40 other categories we have identified build their entire practice on referrals and introductions.
Although there are many "business to consumer" networking groups such as BNI and Le Tip that meet on an all too frequent basis, there are very few "business to business" networking groups that streamline the process by putting members shoulder to shoulder with others who are in the exact same traffic lanes.
Additionally, typically "business to consumer" networking groups meet weekly which is cumbersome for the busy professionals' schedule. My Pinnacle Network will meet monthly and maintain enough contact among group members to generate significant introductions without becoming a nuisance and time waster.
Business to business groups are so scarce that service professionals battle aggressively for the exclusive right to represent their category. In many respects, we have NO competition. A handful of independent groups exist, but there is NO national organization.
We are the ONLY game in town. And a game that many HAVE to play.
There are several other advantages that My Pinnacle Network offers to business to business professionals. First and foremost, it is open ONLY to business to business professionals. No more wasting time with the fruit basket lady, the chiropractor or the nail salon operator.
Second, My Pinnacle Network adds the element of "high tech" to "high touch" of monthly face to face meetings. All group data flows through a robust and easy to use website. This keeps everyone accountable and highly visible.
All introductions/leads are posted to the My Pinnacle Network website and the website's automation both tracks leads and provides reminders to pursue them. Each member's lead production and closing can be measured by the group leader at any time. Thus, non-productive members can be further coached to improve their value to the group or replaced by someone who will be more productive.
Currently, My Pinnacle Network is offering a special charter rate of $200 per. Only one B2B professional will be selected for each category.

Red, the Color of Christmas offers truth and hope for readers and explains the real meaning of Christmas and our Redeemer. In this book author Greg Laurie takes the approach that perhaps we have made Christmas too beautiful. Jesus came to earth and was born as a human baby, not just to teach us to be good, but to die an agonizing death to ransom us from an eternal death sentence.
The shadow of the cross lay over the beauty of that first Christmas night. Within the joy and wonder of Christmas, there is also pain and the red blood paid to redeem us - the only gift that literally keeps on giving. Leather-look with embossed title and ribbon bookmark.

Lots of colorful starfish live under the sea with Ariel, but this beautiful necklace brings them onto land. Use salt dough to create starfish beads. Paint them in pretty pastels, and sprinkle them with glitter. It's a necklace any princess would be proud to wear.
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Combine flour, salt and water in a small bowl. Stir until the dough forms a ball.
Place the ball on a floured surface. Knead the dough, adding flour if it's too sticky.
Roll the dough to a 1/4" thickness, then cut star shapes using cookie cutters. Place the stars on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Use a toothpick to make a small hole at the end of each star. This will be for threading the star onto the necklace.
Bake the stars for 2 hours, or until firm.
Remove baked stars from the oven and let cool.
Put newspaper or scrap paper over your work surface, then paint the stars in bright sea-inspired colors.
While still wet, sprinkle stars with glitter.
Let dry and then tap off excess glitter.
Cut a length of braiding cord long enough to fit around your child's head comfortably.
Fold the cord in half and push the loop through the hole at the top of the star.
Pull the remaining cord back through the loop and tighten to hold the star in place.
String pony beads on each end of the cord and tie the ends together.

Gun Background Check Bill Delayed
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A proposal that would exempt handgun carry permit holders from background checks when they purchase a firearm has been delayed in the Senate.
The measure sponsored by Republican Sen. Steve Southerland of Morristown was scheduled for a Senate floor vote on Wednesday. But Southerland said he delayed the vote after the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation asked to discuss the bill.
He said he doesn't know the reason for the request.
The companion bill is awaiting a vote in the House Judiciary Subcommittee.

The Manor—officially located at 1 Hundred Acre Drive, Bethel Park, PA 15102, in Allegheny County's South Park—is considered by many critics, including those at TopHaunts.com and at HauntWorld.com, to be one of the world's best haunted houses.
Hundred Acres is also a top philanthropic organization, as proceeds from the yearly attraction benefit two major charities in western Pennsylvania—the Homeless Children's Education Fund and Animal Friends.
Guests can enjoy six attractions for one price at the Manor—Dead Lift, Damnation, South Valley Hospital, The Family: Unearthed, The Maze and Brine Slaughterhouse.
Ranked as the No. 1 Charitable Haunt in the United States byT onic.com, Hundred Acres Manor and its predecessor have raised approximately $2 million for their charities since 1992.
Hundred Acres, which fittingly opened on Friday, Sept. 13, is run primarily by volunteers who construct and operate the haunted house while also performing as zombies and monsters.
"While we're proud to say we're ranked one of the top haunts by many respected industry names," Hundred Acres CEO and President Ted Sobek said in a news release, "our longtime work with local nonprofits is what really sets us apart from the others.
"We like that our guests can have fun and enjoy our terrifying attractions while also keeping in mind that their ticket proceeds are going to support a great cause."
Ticket prices for "victims" are as follows:
- General admission tickets cost $18 each.
- For $20 each, Scare Saver V.I.P. admission grants guests front-of-the-line access and reduced wait time. The Scare Saver V.I.P. admission is valid during operating season on only Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. These tickets are available only online.
- At $25 per guest, regular V.I.P. admission grants guests front-of-the-line access and reduced wait time and is valid during all nights of operation, including Fridays and Saturdays. Only a limited amount of regular VIP passes are sold each evening.
- Super V.I.P. admission is for the ultimate thrill seeker, and for $35 per guest, it grants guests preferred parking, access to the front of the line and an official Hundred Acres Manor souvenir T-shirt, while supplies last. Only a limited amount of Super VIP passes are sold each evening.
- There are a number of individual and group discounts that can be applied, such as student and military. You can also host a party in the Manor's VIP Room. Click here for discount and party details.
- *All admission is for one night only. Multiple nights must be bought separately.*
- *On-site ticketing is CASH ONLY; however, an ATM is on-site. Manor officials encourage buying tickets online.*
Days/hours of operation:
- The Manor is open Sept. 20-22, Sept. 27-29, Oct. 2-6, Oct. 9-13, Oct. 16-30 and Nov. 1-2. Hours of operation are from dusk (approximately 7 p.m.) until 10 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, and from dusk until 11:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.

VA solves project management woes through competency models
Thursday - 11/10/2011, 7:02pm EST
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
When the Veterans Affairs Department decided to renovate its oversight of technology projects, officials found two things: a shortage of trained people in critical management skills, and a wide gap in how busy employees were in managing the projects.
Stephen Warren, VA's principal deputy assistant secretary in the office of information and technology and principal deputy chief information officer, said the solution to both of these problems turned out to be fairly simple.
Warren said employees now sit in competency models where they move from project-to-project based on the program's needs at the time. After they are finished, they go back to the competency pool and are assigned to the next project that needs their expertise or receive training.
"We are doing dynamic allocation of resources, people and dollars," he said. "We essentially spent a year wrestling with the old way against the Program Management Accountability System (PMAS). What we found was, we were not getting full value for the people; some folks were being used 10 percent and some folks were being used 200 percent. It was not fair to either side. We get them into a pool and find a balance of when they actually need to be applied and utilized and when they are not, make sure we are training them and make sure they have the opportunity to work on their quality skills and performance skills."
Each pool of experts has a leader and that person is responsible for making sure the employees are receiving training.
Warren said under this model VA increased the number of projects it was working on by 60 percent.
"That was showing our rough wastage of people sitting in a program executive office structure versus a competency model," he said.
Warren said VA has about 450 employees in the competency pools providing expertise in everything from master scheduling to project management to developers and integrators.
"Any skill set required to deliver a product that we made a commitment to, those individuals run out of pool structure," he said.
Warren said VA supplements the pool with contract services. VA buys the services on an as needed basis.
To create these pools, VA had to retrain and hire new employees.
Warren said VA also spent a lot of time making sure the pool leaders were highly qualified.
"The leadership or managers have one priority, make sure the individuals on the team were fully qualified to do work that the project team needed," he said. "There's a major challenge you run in on project teams, the project team is focused on outcome, outcome and outcome and training always seems to take the back seat. We have an organization whose leadership responsibility is to make sure the staff receives training, counseling in how you do this. We think we've found a good blend of what you need to put in place to get a motivated, qualified workforce that is driven to outcomes."
Warren added VA believes this approach is working. He estimated VA's turnover rate among its IT workforce is 8 percent, while the private sector is around 15 percent and other federal agencies around 9-to-10 percent.
As for PMAS itself, Warren said projects now are meeting 80 percent of their milestones, up from 35 percent two-and-a-half years ago.

Leonard Riggio, Barnes & Noble's chairman and largest shareholder, with 30% of the company's common stock, is exploring the possibility of buying out B&N's bookstore chain.
Additionally, an unnamed source told the New York Times Barnes & Noble is considering a move away from engineering and building devices and toward a focus on licensing content to other device makers.
"They are not completely getting out of the hardware business, but they are going to lean a lot more on the comprehensive digital catalog of content," said this person, who asked not to be identified.

'Here Ye, Hear' Ye ft. Sk8brd
Once dubbed "the Jay-Z of the South" by Pharrell Williams, T.I. gradually came into his own and established himself as one of rap's most successful MCs during the early 2000s. Like Jay-Z, T.I. — born Clifford Harris in Atlanta, Georgia — carried a balance of smoothness and toughness, and although 2001's I'm Serious didn't shoot him out of the gate à la Reasonable Doubt, he consistently grew and launched a string of major hits with 2003's "24's." Throughout the six following years, T.I. maintained a consistent presence on urban radio stations in America: 2003's Trap Muzik, 2004's Urban Legend, 2006's King (released in tandem with T.I.'s debut screen appearance in ATL), 2007's T.I. vs T.I.P., and 2008's Paper Trail — all released through the MC's deal with Atlantic — were Top Ten albums, with the latter three even spending time at the very top of the chart.
For better or for worse, T.I. also courted a good deal of controversy during his rise to superstar status. Far more ink was spent on his legal issues and conflicts with other rappers, including fellow Southerner Lil' Flip, than his Katrina relief efforts and other humanitarian involvements. One notable event occurred on May 3, 2006, when T.I.'s crew was caught up in a shooting after a show in Cincinnati. The crossfire left three people injured, while longtime friend and personal assistant Philant Johnson was fatally wounded. Despite such incidents, T.I. continued to flourish as the decade drew to a close, charting three chart-topping rap singles and four Top Five pop hits between 2008 and 2009. His career took a breather in 2009, however, when the rapper entered an Arkansas prison to serve a year-long sentence related to federal gun charges. He was released from prison at the end of 2009, serving the rest of his sentence at a halfway house in Atlanta. Just prior to the December 2010 release of his seventh album, No Mercy, he returned to prison, sentenced to 11 months for violating his probation. The albu

when all they do is FIGHT?

I need to succeed
So I could use some help

Best Reason to Leave San Francisco San Francisco 2001 - The Intolerance
S.F. may posit itself a liberal, open kinda town, but the last year or two has proven otherwise. The city no longer welcomes all: It's them vs. us, artists vs. dot-commers, bohemians vs. yuppies, anti-dog people vs. dog owners, "true" (we use the word lightly) San Franciscans vs. newcomers. Fresh factions seem to pop up weekly. Whatever group you associate yourself with, there is bound to be someone agitating for or against you, and if there isn't at the moment just wait awhile -- they'll surface.

By JAMES COOK
---- — TRAVERSE CITY — Game on.
Or, perhaps more accurately, game back on.
Now that the Winter Classic has been officially given to Detroit again, Traverse City Central, TC West and Cadillac are all hopeful that they'll be included once again in the outdoor Hockeytown Winter Festival contests to be played in the run-up to the game between the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs.
The three squads were scheduled to play in the festival last year — with Central and West playing each other — but those hopes went down the tubes when the NHL lockout extended long enough to cancel the Winter Classic.
"We're hoping," Central coach Chris Givens said. "It was good last year when everything fell apart, for them to say, 'Hey, if this goes next year like we're thinking it will, we'll keep everything the way it was supposed to be.'"
"They assured us earlier when it was canceled," TC West coach Jeremy Rintala said. "They said we had the option to either go down there and play a game at Joe Louis Arena this year or wait and we would be guaranteed to play the same matchup."
Cadillac actually is hoping to do both — playing Big Rapids last season at the JLA and retaining a spot in this year's festival.
"For that length of a trip to play at the Joe, we'd just rather wait and play at Comerica next season," Rintala said. "They kept our deposit to play down there. So as long as it's a go, we're going."
Each team has already paid a $1,000 deposit of $2,500 each to play there. Each team then gets 500 tickets to sell, so in theory each squad could break even on those costs if they sell all 500 tickets at $5 each.
"You look at it and think, 'Jeez, that's an expensive trip when you figure in the fees and transportation,' which it is," Givens said. "But I think it will be well worth it for everyone involved."
Rintala said the team has received no recent communication from Olympia Entertainment, which was running last year's Hockeytown Winter Festival. But he's anticipating a game date before Christmas. Last year's Central-West game was slated for Dec. 18.
The Wings and Leafs will play Jan. 1 at the University of Michigan's football stadium, while a list of youth, high school, junior and minor-league games will be played at the Detroit Tigers' Comerica Park prior to the NHL matchup, leading up to an alumni game between former Detroit and Toronto players on Dec. 31 at Comerica.
There will be American Hockey League between the Grand Rapid Griffins and Toronto Marlies, two Ontario Hockey League games involving the four area teams, high school and youth hockey games played at Comerica, as well as public-skating sessions. The events will run for the final two weeks of December.
"Back when they offered us to play at Joe Louis Arena, they told us we would be guaranteed a spot in that," Cadillac coach Scott Graham said.
Complicating matters somewhat has been the departure of Adam Dubois from Olympia Entertainment. The marketing assistant was the main contact for the festival's hockey teams last year.
"I sent them an email before spring break," Graham said of Olympia Entertainment. "And I'm still waiting to hear back from them. So they told us yes, but that was back in November. All I can go off of is what they said then."
Graham expects to play Big Rapids again. "That's what everything is earmarked for," Graham said.
Cadillac will graduate five players, West eight and Central 11 before a new shot at playing at Comerica comes again.
"It wasn't the best news for them," Rintala said. "They missed out on it. But there's nothing we could do about that."
"You feel really bad for those kids," Givens said of the seniors. "They were so excited about it. The opportunity is gone for them, but at the same time, you're excited and happy for the guys coming back and the guys who will be first-year players on both teams who would have missed out on it, had we played (last) year."

TUESDAY, Aug. 27 (HealthDay News) -- Government efforts to keep minors away from tobacco appear to be working, with a new U.S. report finding sales of cigarettes and other products at near-record lows.
The Synar Amendment Program, initiated 16 years ago to prevent the sale of tobacco products to youth, has seen very low rates of retailer violations of the ban on tobacco sales to those under the age of 18.
Overall, only about 9 percent of retailers violated the ban, according to the latest annual report -- well under the target of 20 percent set by the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). It's the second lowest national retailer violation rate observed since the law's inception.
What's more, while 33 states and the District of Columbia are now registering local violation rates of below 10 percent, nine other states have seen their statewide violation rates plummet to below 5 percent.
"Over its 16-year history the Synar program has made remarkable strides in lowering the levels of illegal tobacco sales to minors across the nation," Frances Harding, director of SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Prevention, said in an agency news release.
The Synar program (named after its legislative sponsor, the late Representative Mike Synar of Oklahoma) was first enacted in 1996 as part of the passage of the Public Health Service Act.
Since its launch the program has required that all states and U.S. jurisdictions implement both laws and programs to enforce them, to prevent access to tobacco products among the under-18 set.
Despite the program's success, Harding said the fight to keep youth and tobacco apart is far from over.
"Far more needs to be done to prevent kids and young adults from using tobacco, which is still the nation's leading cause of preventable death," she said.

Summer signals warmer temperatures, more sunshine and time spent at the beach or pool. For many children, it also means summer vacation and a welcome break from school. However, a break from school should not signify a subsequent break from reading. Reading is a crucial skill that can be further honed during the summer months, when children may have some extra "free" time.
Studies repeatedly demonstrate that poor reading skills lead to poor outcomes:
There are several populations who are at greater risk to struggle with literacy skills. Specifically, studies indicate that economic circumstances play a role in reading proficiency. In fact, only 16 percent of students eligible for free or reduced lunch programs (based on household income) are proficient in reading. In comparison, 42 percent of students who are not eligible for a free or reduced lunch read at proficient levels (NAEP Reading 2009). In addition, reports from all 50 states indicate that boys are less proficient readers than girls. In some states, the gap is as large as 10 percentage points (Center for Education Policy).
There are many ways to help youth become more skilled readers. The key is increasing their exposure to reading materials and opportunities to read:
By making reading more accessible and more fun for youth, caregivers and other adults can play an important role in improving children's level of reading proficiency. These acts, while seemingly small and simple, have the power to offer life-changing and life-long benefits.

Social Media has become part of daily routines, especially for teens. Almost all teenagers have social media accounts and 78 percent of teens have smartphones. Our world seems to revolve around social media, and most people are constantly on a phone, iPad or computer throughout the day.
Teens have created a daily routine, and most don't even realize it. They wake up and frantically look for their phones to check their text messages or see who posted what on Instagram and Facebook. Even during school hours they find a way to get on and use their social media apps. Teens would rather text or chat via social media than talking to communicate with one another.
Take a look at this infographic provided by Teen Safe that shows a typical day in the life of an app-addicted teen.

"Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" – a well-known phrase in the U.S. Declaration of Independence meaning to pursue happiness as long as it does not infringe on the rights of others. It is the freedom to live as one chooses, and simply to be happy. Isn't that what we all want?
Being happy really comes down to being content with yourself and your life. You need to decide what brings you happiness then make it happen. What makes one person happy may not bring the same joy to another. But why are some people happy and others are not? It may seem like a complex puzzle, but the answer is actually quite simplistic in that we have the power to make our lives positive. Most truly happy people are optimistic and live by the Law of Attraction, which means whatever you dwell on shapes your life. So if you fill your mind with happy thoughts, you will attract happiness.
Of course it's not practical that everyone is happy go lucky all the time. Every one of us will encounter some sort of tragedy or difficult times, even if it is only the stress of trying to accomplish all that needs to be done when there never seems to be enough time. And it is OK to feel sad or stressed because if we were happy all the time, that feeling would eventually lose its impact. As Dolly Parton said, "If you want the rainbow, you have to put up with the rain."
Researchers have found that living a balanced life that incorporates family, friends, work, personal growth, spirituality, community and health can help you achieve happiness. Happier people have actually been known to live longer, healthier lives. Sometimes it is as simple as looking for humor in trying situations or purposefully doing something that will bring you joy. We all know the importance of exercise in that it can help prevent diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease, but it is also known to release endorphins that give you a feeling of euphoria.
Some people think money will buy happiness. But while it can afford you material items that might make you outwardly more comfortable, it does not impact true happiness. When lottery winners were interviewed about how their windfall affected their lives, most were no happier and many actually found themselves broke a few years later. It's the same effect we sometimes see with celebrities who have every material possession yet still struggle to be happy. It is easy to take for granted all that we have – our families, a roof over our heads or a reliable car to drive. We forget to stop and appreciate the little things. The secret to true happiness is to listen to your heart and let your head tell you how to follow your heart's path.

There is no doubt social media has its advantages. Businesses use it to promote their goods and services, share industry updates and showcase special events. Individuals rely on it to network and keep in touch with friends and relatives who live far away.
Yet while social media can be helpful in both professional and personal circles, Janene Holter, a special agent with the Pennsylvania Office of the Attorney General, also warns it can be detrimental. During a recent workshop at KidsPeace, Holter challenged attendees to take a closer look at their social media strategies, asking questions like "What are your priorities and values?" "Who are your friends?" "Who are their friends?" For people working in the behavioral or mental health field, online "friends" should never be former clients.
By now, most social media users are savvy enough to realize that information posted online remains there forever. But did you know that once content is on social media, you no longer own it? Holter shared the story of a third-grade teacher who took a vacation to the Dominican Republic and posted some photos of herself on the beach to Facebook. The owner of a gentlemen's club saw one of the pictures and used it for the company's billboard, which happened to be a few blocks away from where the teacher worked. When she requested they take it down, the owner refused because once content is online the original poster no longer owns it. The teacher lost the fight and her job.
It's even more confusing for children and teenagers, who view burgeoning friend lists as a mark of their popularity. They are also more inclined to share personal information online or trust strangers who reach out to them.
"Social media is changing the dynamics of the definition of a friend," Holter said. "Unfortunately we are seeing that students feel invincible."
"Social media is changing the dynamics of the definition of a friend," Holter said. "Unfortunately we are seeing that students feel invincible."
And it is that false sense of security online that leads many young people into trouble. A teenager who would never get in a car with a stranger who pulled up outside her school connects with someone much older online and eventually agrees to meet in person. That was the case in "Alicia's story," one of many educational videos produced by the Pennsylvania Office of the Attorney General that share true stories. Alicia was a 13-year-old girl who lived near Pittsburgh. She befriended "Christine," 14, online, and the two began sharing intimate details of their lives. After a 13-month online friendship, "Christine" revealed herself to actually be a 38-year-old man. Alicia says she was angry and stopped talking to her for an hour or so, but she resumed the relationship because she still felt close to this person.
"He always made me feel pretty and special," Alicia recalls. "That's what every teenager wants."
"He always made me feel pretty and special," Alicia recalls. "That's what every teenager wants."
To make it up to her for lying, the man told Alicia he would pick her up and take her out in her neighborhood. At 6 p.m. on New Year's Day, Alicia walked out of her parents' home – without a coat, or money or a cell phone – to meet a total stranger. From the moment she got into his car, her life was forever changed. He took her to West Virginia, where for four days he and his friends kept her in a dog cage, chained to the floor, wearing a shock collar, as they raped, beat and tortured her. It was only after the ringleader videotaped the assaults, live streamed them online and someone saw the footage and called the authorities, that she was saved.
After she was rescued, her mom recalls that she was afraid of everything. She had flashbacks, she couldn't sleep alone and she had to be homeschooled.
"You do whatever you have to do to survive, no matter how painful or disgusting or humiliating that might be," Alicia said. "These people want a piece of you … and those pieces are really hard to get back. I'm still trying to find all of mine and glue them back together … My life will never be normal. There will always be something missing."
"You do whatever you have to do to survive, no matter how painful or disgusting or humiliating that might be," Alicia said. "These people want a piece of you … and those pieces are really hard to get back. I'm still trying to find all of mine and glue them back together … My life will never be normal. There will always be something missing."
"Unfortunately, there's a lot of Alicias out there," Holter said.
And even though Alicia's case is horrific, some are even worse. "Christina's story" tells the tale of a 13-year-old girl from Connecticut who moved in with her aunt in Pennsylvania when her parents got a divorce. Her aunt, in an effort to make her feel at home, got her a computer for her room – something Holter suggests never doing. Christina made many online friends, one of whom was a 24-year-old man whose wife was pregnant with their first child. They started meeting at the mall every Friday night, though Christina told her aunt she was meeting friends. One week, her aunt went to pick her up, and she wasn't there. Hours later, police found her body in a nearby stream. She had been strangled.
After looking at her Internet history, authorities were led to her attacker. Holter pointed out that their relationship started innocently, with the two talking and sharing information. Then, the man started promising Christina gifts or calling her "sexy." He asked her to send him suggestive pictures of herself. They met nine times before he killed her, and authorities were never certain what went precipitated her death. Even after Christina's killer was incarcerated, he continued to set up social profiles online in an attempt to get young girls to write to him.
Predators are willing to take as much time as they need to build a rapport with these children, and they are experts at mirroring the lives of their victims to create a sense of connection. Holter said a red flag for adults is if a child is closer to online friends than those in real life. She tells parents to ask their children often what they are doing online, what information they are sharing and who their friends are. Holter encourages parents to take away all electronic devices – laptops, tablets, phones – before children and teenagers go to bed at night since most online contact that could be dangerous occurs between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. She advocates that parents not only have all electronic passwords, but that they check them often to ensure their children haven't changed them. Aside from keeping parents in the loop, these passwords could be critical if a child does get into a dangerous situation because it can take days for authorities to be granted a search warrant to retrieve electronic information. Holter reminds parents it's not about invading children's privacy, but about offering protection.
"I don't care if they think you're violating their rights," she said.

As the summer months approach, many youth will be out of school for summer break. However, learning should not cease just because another grade level comes to an end.
There are many opportunities for youth to continue to learn, whether they are enrolled in a structured educational program throughout the warm weather months. Activities that promote learning do not have to be overly structured, expensive or time-consuming. Rather, the best opportunities are often environmental or situational endeavors.
The outdoors provides an excellent opportunity to explore and learn. Nature walks give youth the opportunity to take a closer look at the beauty of the world around them. They may find vegetation that is unfamiliar to them and choose to do some follow-up Internet research to identify it. Or, they may catch sight of a bird or hear a bird call that they had not heard before. Youth with a penchant for creativity may collect a few items and create beautiful art from nature. After dark, youth can view the night sky and learn about stars, constellations and planets.
Parks provide opportunities for youth to grow socially. Children typically gravitate to playground equipment and swing sets. Often, even children who are tentative to make new friends are drawn into imaginative play as groups of their peers explore and create scenarios on playgrounds shaped like castles and pirate ships. Unplanned "play dates" emerge as children who may not otherwise spend time together find themselves embroiled in creating new, fluid story lines which change as the "characters" arrive at and leave the playground throughout the day.
Local parks also offer occasions for pick-up basketball, volleyball or baseball games. While these games are excellent opportunities for youth to hone their athletic skills, even more important lessons are learned: Teamwork, cooperation and turn-taking, which are valuable tutorials that youth can carry with them throughout their lives.
Gardening is a popular summer activity. However, not all youth have an opportunity to tend to a backyard garden. If possible, youth can offer to help a neighbor with his or her garden, volunteer to tend a garden at a local park or provide similar outdoor or landscaping assistance at a senior center. Gardens offer excellent lessons on healthy food choices, but more importantly, help children learn the importance of patience and careful cultivation in helping something grow.
Summer months don't always carry the promise of good weather. In the event that poor weather prohibits outdoor play and learning, one of the easiest and most significant activities that can encourage youth to continue to learn is reading. Local libraries open a world of opportunity at no cost. Research demonstrates that youth who are proficient at reading are more likely to graduate from school. If poor literacy skills extend into adulthood, they represent a significantly higher risk of living in poverty. Promoting literacy among children and youth is one of the most important lessons an adult can impart on a child. In fact, high frequency reading parents are six times more likely to have high frequency reading children. Therefore, it is important for youth to witness significant adults in their lives invested in reading and literacy.
While the warm weather offers a multitude of learning opportunities in the absence of a structured educational program, adults are a key part of cultivating this learning. Significant adults in the lives of youth must help expose them to these opportunities and encourage them to participate in activities that will further their learning.
Michelle Vance wants the world to know that a stable home environment is the most critical requirement for a young person to succeed in school, find steady employment and have access to necessary health care. And it becomes even more important if that young person is struggling to gain control of a mental illness. Vance was one of five young adults to share their experiences with mental health troubles at Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA) National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day on May 6 in Washington D.C.
Vance, 24, knows what it is like to have nowhere to call home. As a teenager, she spent six months couch-surfing, sleeping in her car and constantly worrying about where she would find her next meal. She was exhausted, stressed and bedraggled. People often asked her if she was abusing drugs. "It would have been more helpful," she said, "if someone had asked if I had eaten or slept."
Vance was fortunate to meet a mentor who found her a safe place to stay and helped her pave a new path, but not before she found herself in some scary situations. "Every night, I had to figure out where I was going to spend the night," she said, adding that couch-surfing is not really free. "I had to bend some of my own values and beliefs to stay safe."
Now, Vance is becoming a vocal advocate for other young people dealing with similar hardships, and she is immensely grateful to have the opportunity to collaborate with other young people to hopefully enact change and eliminate the stigma surrounding mental illness.
"The only person who will change my life is myself," she said. "But the support of peers who want the best for me is incredibly helpful."
ADDitude Magazine, a publication whose target audience is individuals whose lives are impacted by ADHD, recently published an article about the "long-term obsessions" of some children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Based on the comments posted by online readers, the author's perspective resonated with a number of parents of ADHD youth. By "mastering their one-track minds," parents and caregivers can harness ADHD youth's enthusiasm and guide them in using their interests as a vehicle to unlock their learning potential.
For these youth, their interests go beyond the typical "phases" that many children experience while growing up. Most children do, in fact, establish interests that are generally age-appropriate, peer-related hobbies and activities that are eventually replaced by "the next big thing." However, for the ADHD child, the interests run deep and the level of detail into which they delve is extraordinary. ADHD youth with long-term obsessions immerse themselves in the topic, learning all they can about the subject using a remarkable number of resources available to them. They are also able to pass the knowledge on to others with fluency and cognizance.
It was once thought that individuals with ADHD were unable to maintain focus on a topic. However, more recent clinical research indicates that their inability to focus is situational. In fact, it is now recognized that individuals with ADHD are more inclined to sustain focus on activities that are of strong personal interest to them. It is this proclivity to hyper-focus on topics of interest that allow the ADHD brain to absorb and retain the information it gathers related to the topic with indescribable capability.
Parents, caregivers, teachers and other adults in the lives of ADHD youth have a responsibility to help them find the interest that taps into their remarkable capacity to learn. Harnessing this interest is a key component to setting them on a path for success. Many ADHD youth struggle in school, the typical setting in which learning is "expected" to occur. However, for ADHD youth, the process of learning often occurs in a different setting or through a different conduit. The challenge for parents, caregivers and teachers is to find ways to merge school-based learning with the ADHD youth's capacity to absorb knowledge about topics of interest. This task is difficult, but not impossible, and most importantly, it is a crucial step in the growth of the ADHD youth into a successful adult. Adults close to ADHD youth often say, "I can't wait to see what he is going to be when he grows up. Our challenge, and our greatest reward, is helping him get there."

Good as a very basic recipe, but it needs more seasoning - a little turmeric, ground coriander, ground cumin, some cayenne. Salt and pepper too. I made it with coconut milk but also added a glug of heavy cream. A medium potato, peeled and diced, makes it go a little further too. This turned out nicely but it needs a bit of tweakage. Thanks!
Yum Yum
I gave this five stars with taking into account Caroline C's tips on adding spices. I added extra curry paste, cumin, coriander, cayenne, salt&pepper, and otherwise followed the recipe. I really think the added spices are important. I loved the smooth delicious flavor of this HEALTHY soup and will definitely make it again!
This was a fabulous soup - I did doctor the ingredients a bit - I added more curry paste, cayenne pepper, Kosher salt and dried basil leaves. My boyfriend insists that on the next go-around I add baby peas and shrimp - since he has very good taste, I just might listen (for once). Thank you for submitting this healthy and delicious meal. Cheers! **Update** - added the shrimp and it was . . . SWITCHED ON! (a.k.a EXCELLENT!) - Thanks again

There are no real rankings in the UFC, that should be pretty clear by now. That's one reason why the "sport" isn't taken as seriously as it could be taken. Let's be honest, the UFC makes money fights and does not even have a semi coherant ranking structure to even try to justify title fights. Hell even boxing with it's alphabet soup has more rhyme and reason to it's title fights. Dana likes to point at officiating, but he should pull the motes from his company's own eye....
The new definition of MMA math: how many title defenses at LHW does it count for if you defeat 2 MW & 1 HW?
Don't forget to get Sonnen to carry the 1 million buys because that matters, and he is the only one who will do it.
Roy Nelson aint quite a title shot.

This. He's still pretty chubby at 230 and is known for not eating well. It's hard to say what improving his diet and conditioning training will do, but I'm pretty optimistic.
That said, there's a world of difference between being able to grapple most of the division and beating Jones. I do think that when DC enters that fight he'll no longer have a speed advantage, will still be a mediocre striker, and will be at a huge reach disadvantage. IMO Jones stays on the outside and takes the decision.
Why do people talk about him cutting and having trouble getting to that weight. He would probably only have to change his diet and that would put him close to it. Dude has plenty of fat to fall off of he wanted it to....
DC wouldn't have any cardio at 205, nor would he have a major speed advantage.
DC just needs to get suspended and he a shoe in for the title.
Grant it he held a title in SF but only 1 fight in the UFC and offering a title fight in a different div. Next we'll have people climbing over the cage to interfear with matchs so the ref miss's something and lets throw some chairs in while were at it.
DC would probably lose his speed that he has against LHW's.
His speed is one of the things that he has a huge advantage over in the HW division.
Vitor just fought Jones, after all.
Sure, why not. Its not like the UFC is concerned at all by the legitimacy of their titles anymore.

Not really. At least Cormier is coming off a win, though at the wrong weight class.
The fact that this could actually happen and not be the biggest slap in the face of the fighters and fans in the past year is just sad.

Benefits of Obama's Minimum Wage Hike Outweigh Costs
Minimum wage laws can make jobs more stable while raising wages.
Chad Stone is chief economist at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
The panel of roughly 40 economic experts that the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business surveys regularly on public policy issues has reached its verdict on President Obama's proposal to raise the minimum wage to $9 an hour:
The distortionary costs of raising the federal minimum wage to $9 per hour and indexing it to inflation are sufficiently small compared with the benefits to low-skilled workers who can find employment that this would be a desirable policy.
When weighted by the confidence with which the experts held their opinion, 62 percent agreed with that statement while only 16 percent disagreed (with the rest undecided). That's true even though the panel was evenly divided over whether the increase would make it "noticeably harder for low-skilled workers to find employment.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the economy.]
Obviously, some of the panelists who agreed that the minimum wage increase would make it harder for low-skilled workers to find work still thought it was worth doing. You don't have to abandon basic principles of supply and demand in a competitive labor market to conclude that low-wage workers as a group could benefit from a minimum wage increase. If the employment effect is "noticeable" but relatively small compared with the size of the wage increase, aggregate wages among minimum wage workers would still rise.
Problems could arise if a small group of people were likely to bear most of the burden of the higher unemployment. But if the burden of unemployment were spread relatively evenly (say, it takes a little longer, on average, to land a job because employers become a little pickier) the net gain might be spread relatively evenly as well. That likely would occur in real world low-wage labor markets, where there is a lot of turnover and churning.
[Take the U.S. News Poll: Should the Minimum Wage Be Raised?]
But there may be no adverse impact on employment, or just a very modest one. In this interview, Arindrajit Dube, a leading minimum wage researcher, discusses his own finding of no adverse employment effects and explains why, in more realistic models of the low-wage labor market than the simple competitive supply and demand model, minimum wage laws can make jobs more stable while raising wages.
Center for Economic and Policy Research economist John Schmitt has a an illuminating analysis that summarizes the empirical research and discusses a range of adjustments that employers and workers make that help to explain why so much research finds that the minimum wage has little or no effect on employment. For example, workers may have an incentive to work harder to keep a job that pays more, reducing labor turnover; employers may organize work more efficiently and be less tolerant of shirking; and businesses may raise prices modestly.
[Read the U.S. News Debate: Is Obama Turning the Economy Around?]
One common reaction to proposals to raise the minimum wage is that a better way to help low-wage workers would be to raise the Earned Income Tax Credit. In fact, the Earned Income Tax Credit and the minimum wage are better viewed as complementary policies than as substitutes. In the 1990s, my organization, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, labeled them the twin pillars of an effective make-work-pay strategy. That remains the case today. The Earned Income Tax Credit gets people into the labor force very effectively, but it would cost the federal government much more if it had to do the job alone. In addition, people typically receive the Earned Income Tax Credit just once a year—at tax time. The minimum wage does not entail large budget costs but, without the Earned Income Tax Credit, policymakers would have to raise it far above its historical level to provide the same level of support that it does in conjunction with the Earned Income Tax Credit—high enough that the grumpy concerns of critics might prove more convincing than they do now.
The president's proposal will, if enacted, move the minimum wage closer to the top of its historical range in inflation-adjusted dollars but not outside the range of experience tested in existing minimum wage research. My reading of that research puts me with the majority of the Booth panel. It's a desirable policy.

Adventure swimming
From OpenwaterpediaAdventure swim can start on land, piers, pontoons, jetties, breakwaters, boats and be done in oceans, lakes, bay, estuaries, reservoirs or rivers. An adventure swim may be done with or without the use of aids of any sort (e.g., fins, wetsuits, paddles, technical swimsuit, flotation device, shark cage, protective wear) and can be conducted under any set of rules or course design. Adventure swimming can be attempted or done for personal reasons, pure adventure, new experiences, memories, records, history or promotion (either self-promotion or promotion of a charity, issue or cause). It can be a solo effort or a relay (group) exploit or a Stage Swim.
According to Jamie Patrick, Ultra Adventure Swimming is self-created and self-designed. It is about going beyond limits, exploring abilities, experiencing the world through swimming. It is blazing new paths in oceans, lakes, and rivers just for the simple reason of adventure.

The hotel's location is perfect. Near the main square (San Marcos) in Venice. The hotel is ok. The room was a small room, no big deal. Ok to sleep over. Breakfast was ok too. Staff were kind. They let you leave your bags if you plan to stay late in the city and you did your check-out. For a short stay, I would come back."
Myself and my boyfriend stayed here for one night and were very happy with our stay. It is located in a very central area. Walking distance to all sights and good eateries. The room was clean and tidy. The recptionst was helpful and friendly. It has an unusual setup where by you enter the building and skype call an alternative hotel reception. You then proceed to that hotel to pick up keys. It was painless and we had no problems with this as the hotel was only a 3 min walk away. Def would recommend to those wishing to stay in Venice at good price. Venice is a must see at night. Much more relaxed than during the day with thousands of tourists milling about."
Cozy place right near the Rialto Bridge. Easy to find which is important in Venice. Clean room, great service from the staff. If you want a real taste of a typical Venice room, this is perfect. Nice bathroom, they had a cot for my son ready when we got there. We got in late, so there was nobody there, but they left me a key and buzzed me in when got there. Could not have been more convenient. Small, but only there to sleep and shower anyway. We Would stay there again."
Peaceful rustic hotel in pretty location near the lake. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, good outside dinning under cover. Rooms are quite basic but clean."
The hotel is very well located, easy access from the train station. Very close to the city center. For the price you cannot expect huge, modern room. But everything is clean and the stuff is very nice and friendly. I recommend this hotel for low-budget trip."
Our second floor apt was very up to date, comfortable bed, WIFI, nespresso machine (if you have capsules with you, as I did), overlooking main shopping street and leads into Duomo plaza. I picked it because we arrived late and left early the next day, so I wanted to share the Duomo area with my partner (late dinner is no problem in Italy). I had the hotel arrange a driver to take us to the apt buldling, which is a good idea because it is in a maze of pedestrian only streets (how the driver got to within 1 block I dont know - when we left we walked down the shoipping street until we reached the first main cross street, where there was a taxi stand. There is also a metro station about 2 blocks toward the Duomo, if you have light luggage. I do not think you could easily find this place without help, or without a cellphone to call for assistance. The manager recommedned dinner at the Novocento museum - great view of plaza and great food. Perfect romantic night in Milan."
clean rooms, amazing internet, close to numerous shops and restaurants and just a 2-3 minute walk to the metropolitana I actually extended my stay there from 2 nights to 6 nights, and very friendly staff"

Ganesh immersion or Ganesh Visarjan 2013 dates. Ganesh immersion or Ganapati Nimajjan, also known as Vianayaka Visarjan is the culmination day of 12-day Ganesh Chaturthi or Ganapati Navaratri celebrations. Usually, Ganesh immersion is held on Anant Chaturdashi day.
Genrally Ganesh nimajjan is performed on the 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th or the 10th day of Ganesh Navratri festival.
Here is the list of Ganesh Visarjan dates in 2013:
- Ganpati Visarjan after one and half day – 10 September 2013
- Ganesh immersion after three days – 11 September 2013
- Ganesh Visarjan after five days – 13 September 2013
- Ganesh nimajjan after seven days – 15 September 2013
- Ganpati Visarjan after ten days – 18 September 2013
- Final day of immersion or last day to perform Ganesh visarjan is – Anant Chaturdashi– 18 September 2013
In some places, from the day of Ganesh Chaturthi festival, the Ganesha idols are also prepared for immersion. Due to terrorist activities and other security reasons, in 2013, Ganesh immersion throughout India will be performed under tight security of the armed forces.
To make the festival more enthusiastic and keep the globe free of pollution, use clay or eco-friendly Ganesh idols. The Ganesha Thathwa (Philosophy of Ganesh worship) teaches the same. We use 21 types of herbal leaves and flowers during Ganesh Festival to worship Lord Ganesh.

As per tradition, Ganesh immersion is performed on Anant Chaturthi day, which is September 29 in 2012. In 2011, it was on September 11.

A Salem husband and wife were arrested Sunday morning after Jeffersonville police responded to a vehicle in a Walgreens parking lot that contained a child and an unconscious man in the passenger seat.
Heidi Powers, 31, was preliminarily charged with misdemeanor neglect of a dependent and possession of controlled substance and possession of syringe, both class D felonies.
James Powers, 40, faces the same preliminarily charges, with the addition of D felony possession of paraphernalia.
A call to authorities had been made and two JPD officers responded to check the welfare of the child in the Ford Mustang at the 10th and Spring streets Walgreens about 12:15 a.m. At the scene, police reported finding James Powers in the vehicle " ... slumped over with saliva coming out of his mouth" and a 5-year-old boy sleeping in a backseat.
As James Powers was awakened, a plastic bag containing 31 packets — seven of which were open — of Suboxone films were located between his legs. According to suboxone.com, the substance is a prescribed medication to help people overcome opioid dependence. Opioids include the street drug heroin and prescription medications like Oxycodone and Hydrocodone.
The bag of Suboxone was found to be prescribed to James Powers from a Rite Aid pharmacy. After he was removed from the car, a large prescription pill bottle containing 11 Alprazolam, also known as Xanax, a prescribed anxiety drug, was found in his pocket. Police reported the prescription pill bottle containing the Alprazolam was prescribed to him, but for a different medication.
A syringe was also located in the passenger door as James Powers was assisted from the vehicle.
As police conducted an inventory search of the vehicle before it was towed away, five spoons with blue and white residue and three additional syringes in a Rite Aid prescription bag were located in the trunk.
Police found the driver of the vehicle, Heidi Powers, inside the Walgreens with another child. She told police she, James Powers and the two children had driven from Salem to Jeffersonville earlier in the evening to shop.
Heidi Powers said her husband had used drugs before making the trip and that he abuses prescription medications. She said she knew James Powers was "zoning," according to the police report, and that she had decided to take only one of the two children in the store with her, despite knowing " ... the drugs James had used were affecting his ability to care for the child, but she stated that she was only going to be inside the store for a few minutes."
She also told police James Powers was awake, but not coherent before she entered the store.
Heidi Powers allowed police to search her purse, where a syringe, a spoon with residue and three small packets of Suboxone strips were located, according to the police report.
James Powers was taken to Clark Memorial Hospital due to being under the influence of narcotics, police reported. He was later released and booked into the Michael L. Becher Adult Correctional Complex.
Police reported the two children were without shoes and proper clothing to wait outside for the Department of Child Services officials who had been contacted, so they were taken to the Jeffersonville Police Department temporarily.
