One Test. Two Lives. HIV Screening for Prenatal Care
CDC's One Test. Two Lives. program gives healthcare providers tools to test pregnant women for HIV infection and help reduce the number of infants born with HIV. One Test. Two Lives. is a part of the CDC Act Against AIDS campaign.
CDC recommends HIV screening for all women as a standard part of prenatal care in order to identify and treat HIV and to prevent transmission of HIV to infants. Women who test positive for HIV and begin treatment early in their pregnancy reduce the risk of mother- to- child HIV transmission to 2% or less. CDC's One Test. Two Lives. campaign gives obstetricians, nurse-midwives, and other providers tools to ensure that all their patients have the opportunity to learn their HIV status as a routine part of prenatal care and to protect their newborns from HIV infection. Kevin Ault, MD, Associate Professor of Gynecology and Obstetrics at Emory University's School of Medicine and a consultant to the campaign, commented, "All pregnant women want the best for their children, and routine prenatal HIV testing is part of that".
The decrease in pediatric AIDS diagnoses can be attributed to routine screening and the use of antiretroviral medications. However, mother-to-child HIV transmission continues in the United States, in part because many pregnant women still are not being tested. Studies suggest that 26 percent of mothers who gave birth to HIV-infected infants were unaware of their infection prior to labor and delivery in 2007.
Campaign Uses Simple Messages to Encourage Prenatal HIV Screening
One Test. Two Lives. emphasizes three points:
- Pregnant women are likely to get tested if their providers strongly recommend it. In a study of 1,362 pregnant women, 93 percent of women who felt their providers strongly recommended an HIV test decided to get tested.
- Screening for HIV early in pregnancy, preferably at the first obstetrical visit, benefits both mothers and babies. Women with HIV who start treatment early and maintain it throughout their pregnancy protect their own health and rarely pass HIV to their infants. Women who have not been tested or have increased risk for HIV should be tested in the third trimester.
- It is never too late for pregnant women to get tested. Rapid HIV tests allow women who arrive at delivery rooms with unknown HIV status to receive an HIV test. Preventive medications administered to the mother during labor, and to the infant after birth, can reduce the risk of mother-to-child HIV transmission to about 10 percent. Some clinicians may also test a pregnant patient late in the third trimester of pregnancy.
Program Provides Tools to Overcome Barriers to Prenatal HIV Screening
One Test. Two Lives. offers a range of provider materials to help facilitate screening in prenatal settings such as CDC's guide to using an opt-out approach to HIV screening and a tip sheet for talking to patients about HIV screening. A patient brochure, a fact sheet on recommended prenatal tests, and a display poster for medical offices are also available to ensure that patients are aware of the facts and benefits of HIV screening.
Free materials are available on the campaign Web site: www.cdc.gov/1test2lives or by calling CDC INFO at 1-800-CDCINFO (1-800-232-4636).
"This is another opportunity to carry out our mission to protect women's and children's health, put prevention first, and decrease the impact of HIV/AIDS in newborns. These additional resources will help clinicians talk to their pregnant patients about important tests for a healthy pregnancy," noted Yvonne Green, Director of the Office of Women's Health at CDC and a consultant to One Test. Two Lives.

Everyone complains about media overload, but no one, including me, wants to give up access to magazines, newspapers, TV, blogs, or Web sites—the thousands of sources of urgent or frivolous assertion. We are caught, willy-nilly, between hunger and surfeit, curiosity and dismay. I assume that Brian De Palma's fascinating but strangely tormented "Redacted" was made in something like this ambivalent mood. It's based on actual events—the rape and murder of a fourteen-year-old girl, and the murder of her family, involving five members of a U.S. Army platoon, near Baghdad, in March, 2006. (Four men have been convicted, and one is awaiting trial.) De Palma has made a fiction out of the events, creating characters and situations whose precise nature he inferred from blogs, soldiers' videos, and news reports. And he has realized his fictional version with fictional visuals: a video diary made by one of the soldiers; a terrorist Web site showing the murder of the platoon's master sergeant; a portentous French documentary complete with stern Baroque music; and so on. De Palma told a similar story in the 1989 "Casualties of War"—a squad captures, violates, and kills a Vietnamese girl—but in that movie he shaped everything into an uninterrupted flow of emotionally upsetting but physically beautiful narrative. He must now feel that neither a unified Hollywood treatment of such a story nor the aesthetic softening that beauty provides is still possible—that such an experience can't simply be told but must be jaggedly assembled through clumsy, off-center representation. The movie is a grimly mischievous emblem of our media-blitzed world.
"Redacted" is a low-budget experimental film without stars, although there are remnants of the traditional Second World War platoon movie. The rough vessels of democracy here include a house intellectual, who reads John O'Hara and stays out of trouble; the diarist, who thinks his video will get him into film school; two racist buffoons; and a straight arrow named Lawyer McCoy, who tries to argue them out of what they want to do. The men have some happy moments, but they're generally in terrible shape—scared, trigger-happy, and quick to launch ritual accusations of faggotry or pussydom at anyone who doesn't want to do something violent. They don't know why they are in Iraq; they "do their job" as narrowly defined, which often means doing it blindly, senselessly—shooting at a frightened driver who runs through a checkpoint, for instance. When the sergeant is killed by a bomb, the two thugs, terrified, release their fear by assaulting the most vulnerable and innocent person around, a teen-age girl.
"Redacted" is hell to sit through, but I think De Palma is bravely trying to imagine his way inside an atrocity, and that he's onto something powerful with his multisided approach. The French documentary frames the events impassively, as timeless tragedies of war. The diarist, in his amiable desire to become a filmmaker, doesn't realize at first that thrusting a camera between himself and a murder cannot absolve him of complicity in the crime. Finally, the terrorist video is itself an act of violence. In other words, the mock-documentary material moves from observation to complicity to participation. The movie interrogates itself. De Palma is caught in the coils of the problem: how do you register and create outrage at a crime without seeming to capitalize on it?
"Redacted" takes all kinds of risks, and so it's perhaps not surprising that it has already been charged with fomenting anti-Americanism, or that De Palma himself has been accused of exploitation. But the movie explores an issue that has been debated for years, by Susan Sontag, among others—the morality of visual representations of atrocity—and it comes off as the opposite of exploitation. De Palma exposes no flesh, and illuminates the assault with only a flickering, wavering light; the murders take place off-camera. In all, the assault excites nothing but disgust. None of us particularly want to hear what "Redacted" has to say, including liberals who criticize the war but regard the soldiers as noble victims. De Palma suggests, by contrast, that some soldiers have become demoralized by the incoherent war policy and have fallen into criminal behavior—an unpleasant idea, but hardly, after Abu Ghraib and Haditha, a lie. To transfer the anger engendered by the movie to the moviemaker himself is to allow one's feelings to blur what's on the screen.
In "Love in the Time of Cholera," Mike Newell's adaptation of Gabriel García Márquez's great 1985 novel, Florentino Ariza—a hustling, excitable teen-age boy living in late-nineteenth-century Colombia—catches sight of a pretty rich girl, Fermina Daza, and falls in love with her forever. Some years go by, and they exchange many letters, but Florentino (Javier Bardem) loses Fermina (Giovanna Mezzogiorno) to another man, the aristocratic young doctor Juvenal Urbino (Benjamin Bratt). Trailing around after her, Florentino languishes in his soul while carrying on innumerable meaningless affairs. We can take it on faith, I guess, that his eternal love is based on that first impression—after all, Dante claimed to be inspired his whole life by a quick look at Beatrice when he was nine and she was eight. Florentino is a bit of a poet, too, and obsession like his, one would think, is its own reward; that is, the benefit of the obsession is precisely the exquisite emotions of longing and suffering. But that's not García Márquez's idea. He's a romantic, not a Freudian; and Florentino is no commonplace neurotic. The book, moving toward its triumphant conclusion, is a wonder. The long, magnificently adorned sentences—a stately river depositing alluvial riches of Colombian culture, décor, sexuality, humor, and manners into the reader's heart—are as intoxicating a literary experience as any available to us.

If the UFC 62 card left a bad taste in your mouth, look no further. Pride Bushidos Survival is packed with MMA veterans going head to head. Its the perfect way to forget the fact that just last night, you spent your hard-earned money to watch an event that was mostly put together using fighters recruited from events called Battle in the Barn and Farm Fights. Also, it shows what you can do when you pay top dollar for top fighters instead of getting third rate bar-brawlers who will fight anyone for a pack of cigarettes.
Dan Henderson vs. Kazuo Misaki
Hendersons right hand punch is as straight as a beam of light and almost as fast. When he hits people with it, they drop like theyve been shot with a high-caliber rifle. Look up One punch, one kill in the karate dictionary and you wont find Hendersons picture next to it, but you should. Of course, Misaki just beat Phil Baroni; but the difference between Baroni and Henderson is as vast as that between a drugged-up orangutan and Roy Jones Jr. Henderson has beaten Misaki once already and will do it again, likely by TKO.
Denis Kang vs. Amar Suloev
Amar Suloev is the sort of opponent who makes most grapplers crap in their spandex fight shorts, and rightfully so. His footwork makes the guy from Lord of the Dance look like a stumbling drunk. It also makes taking him down essentially as hard as catching two chickens simultaneously while someone nails you in the head again and again with a shovel. Add to that the fact hes the kind of tough you can only find in a Russian gulag and he presents quite a foe. That being said, Kang
will set up his takedown with punches and pull off a submission (ala Paulo Filho) in the first round.
Ryo Chonan vs. Paulo Filho
Filho is not interested in foreplay. When it comes to fighting, he does not whisper in your ear or rub your back. Instead, he gets immediately to the action and dumps you straight on your head. Then, while you are protesting that he didnt set the mood, he tears your arm off and strangles you with it. Wham. Bam. Thank you Ryo Chonan. Filho will win by submission in round one.
Jason Black vs. Shinya Aoki
Blacks only loss came via freak injury, when his elbow spontaneously dislocated for no good reason during a fight with Shonie Carter. Now hes facing a guy whos infamous for giving his opponents elbows plenty of good reasons to dislocate. If youve seen Aokis DVD, you know what I mean. Kieth Weisnewski probably still has nightmares where Aoki rips his arm off and dips it into melted butter before greedily consuming it. Will he do the same to Black? Maybe. Assuming Black has done his homework hell keep his arms attached and win the fight by TKO.
Gerard Mousasi vs. Akihiro Gono
Mousasi beat Makato Takimoto by finding the secret weakness of the judo practitioner. Namely: punching him hard in the face. Ippon! Akihiro Gono has made himself a reputation for handing out piñata-style beatings to anyone who steps in the ring with him. Who wins here? Oh no! Its Gono! (fun to say) probably by unanimous decision.
Gilbert Melendez vs. Nobuhiro Obiya
There are a million fighters out there who are undefeated. For the most part, these guys havent lost because theyve been fighting bums who are willing to let someone beat the crap out of them in exchange for soup, cocaine or hamburgers. Its pretty rare to see an undefeated fighter these days who has actually been fighting tough guys or, in this case, two of them fighting each other. Who wins? Im thinking Melendez who will take home the winning cheque and a Pride ring girl, despite the fact that they seem to walk the fine line where pre-pubescent turns to gender-neutral. Meanwhile, Obiya will spend the night in the graveyard as atonement for his loss by split decision.
Chris Brennan vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri
Brennan is coming off a loss to Shaolin via verbal submission due to swollen eye. News Flash: If having swollen eyes makes you re-think your desire to fight, Kawajiri is the last person on Earth you want to fight. If youve ever seen a pit bull puppy attack a running shoe, youve seen a good approximation of what will happen here. Kawajiri wins by unanimous decision.
Jeff Big Frog Curran vs. Hatsu Hioki
Big Frog is not a very good nickname and conjures images of Kermit the Frog clad head to toe in gladiatorial combat gear. Hioki is coming off a win over Mark Hominick. Also, its much more fun to shout Hatsu again and again than Jeff - which is a name Im pretty sure most people in Japan would not be able to pronounce, even after weeks of practice. Curran wins by decision.
Butterbean vs. Ikuhisa Minowa
Minowa will fight anyone, no matter who they are or what kind of bean they might be named after. You might call him crazy. I would say hes crazy like a fox. He would probably say hes power of dream samurai whirlwind and then go do cartwheels directly into oncoming ocean waves. No, Im not making that up. Still, there is a big difference between crazy and dumb and, though The Punk is obviously crazy, he always has a strategy to defeat his opponent and sometimes it even works. What is it this time? Likely a diving tackle followed quickly by a heel hook. Minowa RD1.

I am placing a word document which contains cross references to headers and captions/figures within the document. They seem to be fine and function correctly in the Word document, however, after I place this word doc into my InDesign doc, I take a look at the cross references panel and notice that the cross references have been corrupted. It is wrapping the wrong portions of text from the cross reference destinations. See screenshot for a visual of how the cross references are malformed. For example the 7th cross reference in the list should say Framework Details, not "Framework Detai
InDesign Cross References Panel - showing malformed bits of text
Another visual of this issue can be seen if I view the text frame in Story Editor view, see below. You can see that the cross reference source tags (blue arrow like symbols) are wrapped around the wrong portions of text. The blue tags shoud be wrapped around Framework Details and 52
InDesign Story Editor
You can see below as to why I think the cross references are fine in the Word doc, you can see the same cross reference I used in the example above in the word doc and it is wrapping the correct portion of text:
Word - showing cross reference is formed corerctly
Why is this not being maintained after placing this file into InDesign?
Also I am not performing any cross reference updates after I import, this problem occurs immediately after the place of the doc.
Why would InDesign be having difficulty in importing these cross references? I have set up a simple test Word document with cross references to headers and figures in and they have imported fine. What could be wrong with this other particular word doc that would be causing this "corruption" of cross references? This is not only causing my cross references to break visually and lack the update capability but also I cannot export the InDesign doc to an ePub as it keeps crashing. I believe from my reading on the web that if there is only one broken cross reference source i.e. the cross reference destination that it is trying to link to is missing, then the export to epub will fail. So this is causing a massive headache for me at the minute.
Is there anything I could be looking at in the Word doc to try and figure out why the porblem is occuring in the first place?
If anyone has any tips or a possible solution to this I would really appreciate it. Even better if someone knows the reason why this is happening I can tackle it from the source and prevent it happening time and time again.
Thanks, Dave
What version of ID, and what format are you saving in Word?
I am using InDesign CS5.5, the Word Document has been saved out of Microsoft Word 2010 as type Word Document (*.docx)
Also: If of any use, when clicking "Help > About InDesign..." it says that the InDesign version is 7.5.3
Try saving as .doc and see if it makes a difference.
I saved the word .docx file out as a .doc. I placed this into my InDesign file and I still get corrupted cross references. Except that this time only one reference is appearing in the cross ref panel. Also, the blue markers are appearing in story editor view wrapping the wrong portions of text again but they have shifted around slightly. This brings up another related question., If there are cross reference source markers visible in the story editor, then why are these not appearing in the cross reference panel?
See screenshots below:
Cross ref panel after placing .doc file
Story Editor after placing .doc file
I've never tried palcing a Word file with cross-refs, so I'm a bit beyond my comfort level. Word Import can be very flakey, though.
Presumably you don't have un-accepted tracked changes? Those cause huge headaches. Sometimes RTF works when the native Word formats fail, but I don't recall that RTF supports cross-refs so that may not help. Can you backsave to Word 2000 .doc?
Jongware may drop by with some other ideas. I suspect he would suggest that if you have CS3 or CS4 you place the file in that version, then export as tagged text and import that into CS5.
I dont have the option to save the word file as type Word 2000 .doc, only, Word 97-2003 Document (*.doc) which I tried previously.
Could you ellaborate a little more please on "Presumably you don't have un-accepted tracked changes?". I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this.
Tracking changes is an option in Word that allows various users to make changes which can then be accepted or rejected by a responsible party. Should be in the Tools menu in Word.
Hi Peter.
The Word Doc has no outstanding changes, I chose the Accept all changes option anyway, saved a .doc and .docx version out, then imported each of these. Each one had the same result as previous. I have tried importing them into a completely different InDesign doc too (Ctrl+N), and get the same corrupted cross references.
I have also tried, selecting all of the content and updating all cross references with F9. Then tried importing this version into InDesign. Same problem.
I have also deleted the table of contents and index page from the Word doc, in order to see if these were affecting it, same problem after placing into InDesign.
I'm still hoping Jongware will pop in. He has a lot more experience with this kind of problem.
Only bad experiences, Peter ...
I've seen this character shifting before on numerous occasions, both with cross references and with hyperlinks. (It's especially funny with hyperlinks, 'cause you can see that the outline box shifts one character at a time per each next link...)
The thing is it's not just limited to hyperlinks and cross refs. Dave's screenshot doesn't show bold, italics, or other local formatting, but it's a fair bet these are off by a couple of characters as well.
Dave's experiment of making a "minimal" Word document to confirm it's a persistent bug didn't work. I found the same thing: either a document comes in fine, or everything is foo-bar right from the start. There must be some internal Word code that InDesign forgets to count as 'a character position'. Without delving into the Word file with some very advanced tools, it's anyone's guess what code that would be.
I can only offer the one solution that works for me: in Word, remove all hyperlinks (which is what Word uses for internal links as well as for external ones) and convert all cross-references to text. Then, if the file finally imports fine, re-build them in InDesign. It's a cumbersome workaround, but slightly better (only just) than checking each reference, delete, rebuild, check next -- etc. (And with that the chance that your other text attributes are also off.)
Thanks Jongware, that's a workaround i'm hoping to avoid. I want all of the content and referenes to be defined in the Word doc (if I can fix the issue) and then do only minimal changes in the InDesign doc. I'll keep looking into the possible cause.
I had a theory.
Basically, there are custom bullets defined in the Word Doc which are based on a font called "Symbol". On placing the doc into InDesign, InDesign complains that it is missing a font called "Symbol Bold" and I choose the option to substitute it. I thought that the substituted font might have affected the way that the characters render in some way, which causes the cross reference markers to shift.
I tried removing the reference to Symbol Bold from the word doc and placing this new doc into indesign. I no longer received the message that Symbol Bold isnt available so didnt need to subsitute it. However I still had the problem with the broken cross references. So doesnt seem that this is the cause.
Have you any other theories or tests I could try?

Have you any other theories or tests I could try?
No, my single theory is the "some Word code that's not counted in InDesign" one, based solely on my observations of the shifting stuff.
Maybe you could repeat your experiments with saving your doc as RTF ("Rich Text Format"), which, despite its history and name, is just a plain Word document (read: "All Crap Included™") but written out in human readable form. So if you can locate a paragraph in which your cross-reference is okay, and one where it is not, there logically must be something in between that InDesign ignores but Word does not.
Note that most likely, even if you find the problem, you cannot "do" anything about it. The only thing you can do with this information, is pass it on to Adobe in a Bug Report. But don't hold your breath; I have reported this, and similar issues, for several different versions of ID, and It Only Got Worse with every new release.
I had another theory. Maybe InDesign can't handle the index markers that are littered throughout the Word doc and this causes the shift.
I did a find replace on all index markers in the Word doc, effectively deleting them.
I then imported the Word doc into InDesign and the cross references seem to be ok! See screenshots.
So, now it seems that I can't generate an Index in Word and bring this into InDesign, without breaking the cross references. Is there a way around this issue so that I can place a Word doc into Indesign with Index markers and cross references in it?

Just finishing up week 1 and feeling great! My pants are already starting to move lower on my waist and hips! I feel stronger and lighter! Im so glad to be on this program. Im having a little bit of a hard time with eating only 6 meals a day. I tend to get hungry around 8-9 pm and my 6th meal usually happens around 6 pm, so that seems to be my only problem. Hit my high point with jogging today and thought I was going to die but pushed past level 9 to level 10. My self control felt a little stronger by the end of my workout! :) Hope everyone is doing well with their programs!!!
Congrats on making it thus far! I'm impressed you are already seeing results. Understand you probably won't see the same big loses every single week and that's ok, over 12 weeks you will transform! Keep up the great work.
I was just reading about how women see big changes in week 8 so Ive been setting my focus on these next 7 weeks as being more foundational than anything. Thanks for the response and the encouragement!!
Prepare your mind for the full 12 weeks and setting expectations, but physically attack every week like its your last! No excuses, nothing can stop you except you!

Monday on Mayhem:
Could another big-time Hawk be on the way to Brooklyn? ESPN's Chris Broussard reports that the Nets are actively trying to trade for Josh Smith, who would join with former teammate Joe Johnson in the borough of Kings. NBA.com's Sekou Smith separates fact from fiction with us at 8:02.
First he's going...then he's staying...but in the end, Georgia defensive coordinator Todd Grantham is sticking around in Athens after kicking on the tires on the New Orleans Saints gig over the weekend. Is that good or bad news for the Dawgs moving forward? We'll ask you at 7:32.
Georgia Tech took care of business on the road on Saturday and head coach Brian Gregory joins us in-studio at 9:32 to talk about that and a wild weekend of college basketball.

As the author, you have full copyright to the summarizing chapter (Swe: "kappan") of the thesis. At least that chapter shall always be published in the Epsilon Open Archive (according to a decree from the vice-chancellor since 2003). If the articles in your thesis have been, or are to be, published in journals you need permission from the publishers to deposit a copy of the articles in Epsilon (also in the Open Archive). This is called parallel publishing. Read more about open access and parallel publishing here. Also see the section about scientific articles below.
As the author, you have full copyright to your monograph thesis. By the vice-chancellor's decree, it should be published in its entirety in the Epsilon archive for theses. If you are going to sign over the copyright to a publisher, make sure to retain the right to also deposit a copy in the SLU institutional archive Epsilon.
When an article is to be published in a traditional, non-Open Access, journal your copyright is normally signed over to the publisher. Each publisher then has its own rules regarding what you as an author can do with your article after signing the contract. If you want to comply with the SLU Open Access policy, your publisher must allow parallel publishing in an institutional archive. About 70 % of all publishers now allow this in some form in their standard copyright transfer contracts. Your SLU library can help you investigate what rights you have!
As part of your education at the SLU, you are to publish your student thesis or theses in Epsilon. This is mandatory for all of SLUs faculties and departments by vice-chancellor's decree (dated 18th of June 2007) and valid from the autumn semester of 2008. As an author, you have the copyright to your thesis. The agreement you sign by depositing your thesis in Epsilon only means that you give the SLU the right to publish and keep a copy of your thesis online in the archive. You may still use your thesis any way you choose. If you sign any other agreement later, however, you must make sure that the new agreement permits that the SLU keeps a copy of your thesis online in Epsilon.

He was helping her out of the ditch when I slowed my bike to a stop on the Ladiga Trail. She righted her bicycle, brushed herself off and explained with one word, "squirrel." I nodded my understanding. My friend Rene once spent some time on crutches with a cast on her ankle for the same reason. When those bushy tailed rodents stop in the middle of the lane and do their little shimmy dance, why do we swerve? People can not out-reflex squirrels.
My father taught high school driver education in addition to many other hats he wore during 30 years with the Birmingham City Schools, and he used to quiz me about driving situations. The one I always got right was probably the most useful too. Question: "What if something is in your lane and you don't have time to stop?" Answer: "Hit it." Dad was convinced that swerving while driving a car could make any accident more serious and he wanted to train my first thought to be "Hit it." The rule came in handy when a ladder fell off the truck in front of me while driving on I-20 in heavy traffic, and also when assorted wildlife darted in front of my vehicle over the years. Swerving can cause a lot of trouble, and frankly, it almost never saves the deer either.
We can't always weigh every option when faced with a quick decision regarding an obstacle in our path. But what about the things in life that are more important than bicycles, ankles, cars or deer? How do we know when to take a stand and when to keep the peace? I've always been a big fan of Dietrich Bonhoeffer who was one of the first Christians to stand up to Adolf Hitler. Bonhoeffer became so frustrated by the lack of action among his fellow clergy that he became involved in a plot to assassinate Hitler. As it turns out, good Christians do not always make good assassins and evil dictators have a much higher success rate when it comes to killing off their opponents. I'm not an advocate of assassination in general, but you have to admit Bonhoeffer decided not to swerve.
WWJD? Jesus seemed to have an inordinate amount of patience with some people and a very short fuse with others. He compared respected teachers to whitewashed tombs --- pristine outside but dead inside. He invited outcasts to eat and chat. He was no stranger to verbal barbs nor to words of compassion that surpassed anything the world had ever seen. And of course there was that incident in the temple with the overturned tables.
So how to know? Maybe when I feel like telling someone off I should show love, and when I feel like melting into the woodwork I should speak out. Courage is an interesting virtue… one you may not know you have (or don't have) until faced with a dictator or a table that needs to be overturned.

I have not done internships through school
I love the AT program. People are great and working with athletes is awesome. Get to know everybody. Very time consuming tho
Campus Strictness:
School policies are a joke and often ras will not uphold them. Easy to get away with a lot. Spo cops are the worst, only there to give parking tickets and probably over paid
Fridays are more chill but plenty of parties. Saturdays are party filled with everyone ending up at roscoes
Local Atmosphere:
Small town with no room for personal growth. Everything stays local. Its a nice area but its not close to any bigger towns
Off-Campus Dining:
All local restaurants. Good food but can get pricey
Off-Campus Housing:
The off campus houses are owned independently of the college by landlords who are extremely helpful and willing to help students. The college can be assholes when it comes to deciding who can live off campus. Its cheaper to live off campus but you have to do all the work yourself, no help from the school, to find a place. General maintenance is needed on all houses
The college is fairly diverse as they pride themselves in having international students attending school. Luther has a very open community to sexual orientation.. I mean come on, its a music first school
They have a good number of scholarships based on academics through high school and your act score. Along with grants and federal aid you can take a good chunk out. However, its about 45k to go here so you'll still end up with quite a bit of loans to pay off
Drug Safety:
RAs try and control it but a lot of people drink underage. Its not a dry campus so those of age also drink in the dorms and around campus. Marijuana use isn't too big at the school, mainly alcohol. Many people are smart about drinking and walk to the bars
Everything is close, its a small campus. We walk mostly everywhere and off campus stores aren't too far either. Most people bring a car but don't use them too much. There are taxis around decorah if needed
Greek Life:
The idea of them is good if they would actually do the community service they say they are going to... its mostly just an organized group to drink with
Health & Safety:
Decorah isn't a very big town so you don't have to worry about your stuff getting broken into and stolen. On campus, I have never had a problem with safety and security. Luther, with its high standards, draws nice, well rounded kids to come to school there. Overall, security and safety is never a problem... although there are occassional false fire alarms on weekend nights.
Greek Life:
Greeks and pledging are generally seen as annoying by non-Greeks. Not sure of the housing situation, but the presence overall is not that huge besides Wednesdays, when they all show off their pretty sweatshirts.
Health & Safety:
Luther sits on top of a hill in Decorah above the town so there is very little non-student presence on campus. Campus security is fast to respond, less than five minutes to any need whether it is being locked out of your room or hearing an odd noise outside. There have been very few cases, less than five, times where the police have been called in my three years at Luther. I feel completely safe on and off campus.
Luther is very strong in supporting diversity and acceptance in regard to ethnic/racial diversity, economic background, political beliefs, religion, and/or sexual orientation. There are many groups around campus that are supporting and raising awareness of issues on campus and around the world. There are housing options available that focus on community building and raising awareness as well.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are many reasonably priced options around the Decorah area. There are Chinese, Mexican, Italian, American, Pizza, Sushi, sports bars and fast food options. They are mostly on the main downtown strip which is within walking distance if you do not have a car. The best places to look for while in Decorah are Mabe's Pizza for some of the best pizza in town, The Family Table for good home-style cooking and T-Bock's for burgers and more!
Chemistry and the sciences in general are very strong at Luther College. Luther is a very strong academic as a whole and is selective in the admissions process. The most important criteria are academic achievement and community service certainly doesn't hurt. There is no strange requirements to get into Luther.
The Chemistry Department at Luther College is very good at working with students to prepare them for their future. The specific program is enjoyable to be in. The professors are always willing to help clarify any questions or misconceptions that you have and the upper class students are always willing to help out as well. I feel the junior and senior student involvement in the program is unique as many times it's every man for themselves but at Luther, we are constantly pushing each other to be the best we can be and always lending each other a lending hand. There are always research, job and internship opportunities posted in the Chemistry study lounge.
Campus Housing:
I really like my room mate and my floor mates. It makes it real easy to fit in the social atmosphere.
Guys & Girls:
I chose Luther, because of the students and the atmosphere the students omit. It is great to attend a college where other students have similar interests- choral, dancing, etc.
Keeping my grades up allows me to receive an academic scholarship. Without that scholarship, it would be hard to attend this university.
The workload can be difficult, but I dont mind as I really enjoy the subject matter for English major.
My career goal is to be a HS English teacher and possible write a book someday.
Campus Strictness:
There are quiet hours for the dorms especially at finals time.

Written by William Morris
The Luther bubble does a wonderful job of creating an experience that is not duplicated anywhere else, and many students hold that near to their hearts. The campus's small size allows for plenty of bonding and gives students support and a sense of community and common purpose. The College's "liberal" bent has less to do with politics and more to do with personal choice. The College allows students to be creative and experiment on their own terms without punishing them for being different sexually, personally, or in terms of viewpoint. In the same way, professors at Luther are not about pushing their own ideas onto other students; they would rather present multiple viewpoints to you and let you make your own decision based on what you've learned. The community is also present outside of academics, and everyone is in the same boat at Luther. Despite the existence of a small Greek system, there is no real hierarchy at Luther over who rules the roost. If you're looking for an Animal House-type experience or plan on living and dying based on the basketball team, you'll be out of luck at Luther.
Many students love Luther for the simple fact that the bubble allows students to experience all kinds of fun. Academics aside, many students come here for the opportunity to perform in music, play sports, make a difference in student government, or contribute to the campus's vibrant performing arts society. The workload at Luther and variety of majors allow students to get a great education and forget about it on the weekends, but that doesn't mean every night has to be a party. Most professors place an emphasis on writing competence at Luther, which means you can expect more term papers than worksheets, especially if you're in a writing-intensive major. Luther teaches students that although many of the best things can be found on campus, you should still venture into the unknown just to be sure. College is not about ivory towers, old brick buildings, and a false sense of importance; it's about finding and creating yourself. For many students, there's no better place to complete that project than Luther.

I'm not sure what there is to say about The French Laundry that hasn't been said. It remains the definitive luxury restaurant experience in America, the standard by which all else is judged. If you want modernism, It's Alinea; if not, The French Laundry. End of story.
BIGGEST RIPOFF EVER! – This review is LONG overdue, and i can not get this ridiculous experience out of my head. First of all, the hype around French Laundry is completely overrated! The fact that they make you call 3 months to the date that you want to make a reservation should have been the red flag... We get there, and are totally unimpressed with the decor, not elegant at all, very quiet, and the staff is not very friendly, almost snobbish. Fine. We are here. We order. Every add on is more and more money. Fine. Take my order. The waiter takes my order, and I point out to him that there is a bug (gnat) on my plate. He takes his finger and SQUISHES IT ON MY PLATE, and then proceeded to walk away! We all looked at each other in disbelief...I then asked him for a clean plate, and he said to me..."you are not going to eat off that plate anyway" and started to walk away. I KNOW WHAT A CHARGER PLATE IS, I live in San Francisco and eat in fine restaurants often. From that point on the meal was done for me. We should have all walked out. The entire staff was cold, the food was totally unmemorable, and I would NEVER recommend FL to anyone! Go to Gary Danko in
Should Be On Every Foodie's Bucket List – The French Laundry is not just a great French restaurant in America, it is a great French restaurant anywhere in the world, most definitely including France. There is a magic that has been cultivated here that inspires the kitchen each day. This is an intangible that is extremely rare in the brutal world of the culinary arts where even the most enthusiastic practitioners can fall prey to the grind of the kitchen.
Also adding to the FL's ability to perform at such a high level on a consistent basis are their strong relationships with other inspired vendors. The herb garden across the street provides a good foundation upon which to rely, however, the meats and seafood that make it into this kitchen come from vendors who truly care about their products and the customers who they serve.
Every single aspect of the FL has intelligent thought put into it. The type of salt, pepper and oil are as carefully chosen as the meat or mollusk in which they will flavor. It all works together in synchronicity much like nature itself. A meal at the FL is similar to experiencing any other great art. It will linger pleasantly in your brain for several days afterward eventually finding a comfortable niche in the pleasant part of your memory. It will be there forever to enjoy like your first love.
This is truly one for the "bucket list" if you are a foodie. Go there at least once and celebrate one of the greatest gastronomic experiences available on Earth.
Best French food even compared to France! – Go for the tasting menu it changes often and the 9 course will fill you up and you will be amazed at every dish. The common words you hear from everyone is "WOW" and most will say that at least half of the dishes!
I've been to the best places in Paris and France and while there were many 9 out of 10's only the French laundry gets my vote for a 10!
I came into this restaurant without much expections at all. Or perhaps what I mean is not too high an expection. I certainly wasn't shocked when that's exactly what I got.
When I saw it on the menu and the foie gras terrine (not fresh) was presented, I knew I had to brace myself for disappointment. The food was the biggest disappointment. The servers really tried their best. It wasn't their fault. It was the food that was all to blame. I think maybe chef has been resting on his laurels too long because there was certainly nothing new, innovative or worthwhile from what my partner and I ate.
We eat a lot at restaurants, and are serious foodies, but to a point that we're very forgiving too. It's just that the food here really disappointed.
The only reason I gave an extra star is for the great service. At least these people tried.
Surpassed my expectations – I made reservations two months ago and dined tonight. During that time, I had spent several weekends researching all I could about Thomas Keller, his restaurants, his philosophy, studied the 100+ page wine menu, etc. I've read more reviews than I can remember, both good and bad. I tried going in with reasonable expectations: this is considered the best restaurant in the Americas by Restaurant Magazine. What does the "best" restaurant taste like? I think what makes The French Laundry different is that you're not just having a meal; you're having an experience. I'd heard from several people who explained it as such, but now I really get it. Your dining experience starts, in my opinion, once you get out of your car and walk up to the building. 4 hours later, when I left the restaurant to return to my car, I felt I got my money's worth. Not just with the food, but, well, everything. Alot of people complain about the portions at high-end restaurants. I cannot possibly imagine anyone complaining about how much food you get here. I literally couldn't eat another bite of dessert by the time we were done with the 9 courses. One thing I tried and was very happy with was doing a wine pairing; you get to try many different wines by the glass and each one compliments each course perfectly--a credit to our sommelier. The service was exceptional--every time either one of us would get up, we'd come back to the table to refilled water glasses, a clean table, and fresh napkin. I know that sounds trite, but every little nicety adds up to an unbeatable experience. Before ordering, our server asked us if there were any foods we were allergic to or didn't like. How cool is that? What could be your excuse for having a bad time here? I'd wholeheartedly go again, maybe in the Fall when they have white truffles. Unfortunately it was raining tonight so we didn't get a chance to enjoy the garden or the outside seating...someday!
Wishing for the wow factor! – I dined at the French Laundry & was a bit disappointed. Started w/ oysters with a sabayon sauce, which I would have preferred chilled, I guess I wasn?t expecting the oysters to be poached, however the caviar was briny & delicious. Foie gras was the best dish of all, served with 3 different salts and the most delicious brioche, the salt cut the fat perfectly. If your brioche gets a bit cold, warm brioche is ready to replace it! However, I was disappointed that the foie gras was an additional charge to the prix fixe menu. The urchin dish was a true disappointment, again I guess I was expecting a cold dish, instead it came on top of a gratin of warm cabbage, with some kind of cream sauce; not good. Next course was seared scallop; it didn't stand out. The braised pork belly was very good, but how can you go wrong with pork belly and it's on everyone's menu. Lamb was delicious, with the cutest carrots I've ever seen and the dates were just sweet enough to go with the sauce. Had the sheep's cheese, served along side a green apple relish, which was really good, but it was a less than a thimble size with a drop of excellent honey. Palate cleanser was refreshing guavasteen sorbet. Finally the finish was pumpkin sherbet (which was delicious) pumpkin croutons which were light and fluffy and pillowy chocolate dentelle. Of course, the alcohol bill was gigantic, but I guess it has to match the food. The food presentations were immaculate and beautiful (except the uni dish), over all I felt the environment while stately, was bland. While I appreciate the quality and dedication to the art of this culinary experience, I would not make the effort to go again. I must be a philistine.
French Laundry SO Not Worth The Price. – We dined with a party of ten in Sept. 2006 and 2007. At our 2007 seating they forgot the promised birthday cake and 5 of the 9 dishes were the same as the previous year. When we emailed and asked them to vary the menu for our 2008 seating, Thomas Keller called us personally and said, "If you don't like what I serve, don't come. I'll even help you find another restaurant to eat at." We canceled and will now dine at Gary Danko's in S.F., a much better restaurant. French Laundry is SO not worth what they charge you. For $6,000.00 for dinner for 10 people Keller should kiss the foot of his customers and remember his roots and where he belongs, sweating over a hot stove to earn his keep. There is no longer room in his restaurant for customers along with his ego.
"Discriminating" Service – Due to character limitations, I can't show my full review, but it can also be found on the Yelp website. Look up user "Dave M" under the French Laundry reviews.
Simply put, the food was incredible. A culinary masterpiece, sadly tainted by a clear example of discrimination.
Disregarding the above issue (albeit a difficult thing to do), from a service perspective, I was much more impressed with local San Francisco gems such as Chapeau! and Gary Danko. French Laundry's service was structured and formal, but far from personalized during our meal.
In summary, he did provide an apology for the "embarrassing and unfortunate experience", stating this action did not reflect the establishments customer service "ideals" and "that the situation was addressed with all those involved that night."
What was missing was any attempt to address my personnel satisfaction or any effort to make up for the experience.
The service ruined the entire experience... – We went here for our 5th anniversay, after a wait of nearly 4 months. The dishes was okay, but far from spectacular. I am a pretty nice guy and maybe my expectations were higher, but this is truly a classic example of a restuarant with rave reviews that has become lazy and now is run solely on the reputation of it's former glory.
It's a shame as I see this a lot. A restaurant gets divine praises and then the wait list becomes neverending, the prices increase, the head chef is never there, and the quality of food and service declines rapidly. We did a tasting menu (and paid out the wazoo for it, believe me), and the dishes were decent and good, but no better than a meal I could of gotten at my local french restaurant, only except it would have been only about 10% of the price...
The main complaint (ant utter surprise really) I had was how poor the staff and waiters were. 4 of the courses came out disassembled, meaning that the food "stack" clearly had fallen over (again, attention to detail- it seemed like a 15 yr old mop boy plated our food), but what was over the top was our waitor who, on TWO occasions, used his hands to fix the food once it was on our table!! I almost had a heart attack!
The staff here is extremely pompous and has a higher than thou attitude that makes me think they are thinking "I am working at the FRENCH LAUNDRY and therefore I am BETTER than you!". My wife asked alot of questions and the answers were given very harshly and in a condescending way. Basically, they made us feel like idiots.
I can forgive alot of things because I understand things happen and we have off nights, but poor and RUDE service I will not tolerate, and because of the service we recieved, not only is the French Laundry andsuppar experience, but it has joined my list of one of the worst dining experiences I ever had, and I will be sure to tell as many of my colleagues as I can.
Such a disappointment – After waiting the apparently "required" 2 months to get a reservation at The French Laundry, my husband and I were extremely excited to experience this "world class" restaurant. The wait staff, though attentive, was stiff and pompous, the food was a disappointment, and the final bill for the evening over $800.00. The next day we enjoyed a picnic on the grounds of a beautiful winery, with lovely bread, cheese, olives, and wine, that beat The French Laundry by a mile. Don't believe the hype.

Eco Designer Rachel Mace's Totally Trashed Fashion on the Runway (with photos)
Editor's Note: Who's Rachel Mace? You can learn more about her and her journey to become an alternative fashion designer from our profile of her.
Rachel Mace (aka Keseken) describes her debut of Totally Trashed Fashion (a clothing line made completely from trash) at the fourth annual Runway Renegade Show as the "most amazing experience of her entire life." Every seat was filled, and the crowd cheered as Mace's models were the first to strut down the runway. All of the small kinks had worked out to produce an "incredible" show. The audience's positive feedback was the boost Mace needed to affirm her new role as an alternative fashion designer.
"This show helped me learn some things about myself: My design preference leans towards the more extravagant pieces. I had trouble finishing the really simple things because I just wasn't as into it. I expect my next line to be full of big, exciting dresses," said Mace.
Mace has already begun eagerly working on her second line for Spokane's Sustainable Uprising Fashion Show in September. You can take a look at the some of the pictures from the Runway Renegade Show on the following pages (with Rachel's comments); you can view them all at the Totally Trashed Flickr stream.
If you know any other designers creating fashion and saving the planet using unconventional materials, leave me a comment or send me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com. I'll take a look and possibly feature them on sustainablog.

I ordered two of this perfume because of the beautiful bottle which has made of a nice golden bangles and I can not find it anywhere else, the pricing is very good also, I appreciate it to keeping it in stock. It is a very special perfume that should every woman has. Also need to add that it stays so long and it is very strong and I always get a lot of compliments and I enjoy it too.

bijon with a twist is a very woodsy scent. At first I don't like the initial top notes but when it dries down it gets much more earthy smelling and I do like it after that. It reminds me of a fall day with the scent of falling leaves in the air. This is the best description that I can say this scent smells like.

Great zoo! – Really like the Dallas Zoo and have been to others including the famous San Diego zoo, but I think Dallas has a better one. Like the monorail which takes you thru the exhibits.
Fun zoo! – This zoo is very easy to locate and the price is right! We buy a family zoo pass every summer. At least once a week I take my kids early in the morning and we are out by lunch. This makes for a great morning with little traffic.
Where the wild things live in Big D. – In Short
Not only is the Dallas Zoo the oldest one in Texas (founded in 1888), it's also the largest in land, with 95 developed acres. The Wilds of Africa exhibit is 25 acres, featuring the different environments and animals found in Africa. A Monorail Safari takes about 25 minutes and winds through the six habitats. The Children's Zoo features interactive activities and a live tree growing inside the Discovery House.

Most people have nightmares about being naked in public, but not True Blood's Rob Kazinsky. In fact, he looks forward to it.
"The idea of being naked on screen was really intimidating," the British actor, 29, tells PEOPLE about filming love scenes for his new role as the "half-fairy," Ben Flynn, on the HBO vampire hit. "But after your first time it becomes really fun and incredibly freeing and empowering."
Kazinsky admits that his foray into the frequent nudity on the Sunday night series was made all the easier thanks to his costar in the scene, Anna Paquin.

Stephen Moyer has been stripping down for years on True Blood. But for some episodes of the new season, he was in charge of getting his costars naked, too – and found that just as enjoyable.
"It was a lot of fun doing three hours of makeup and getting into complete red-blob land, and then directing my fellow actors naked. That was a lot of fun," Moyer said Tuesday at the HBO vampire show's season 6 premiere at Hollywood's Cinerama Dome at the Arclight.
Moyer, 43, who tries his hand at directing this season – which kicks off Sunday (9 p.m. ET) – says he's very understanding with the other actors when it comes to the pressure of baring all for the cameras.

New parents Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer stepped out for dinner on Saturday night at Boa in Santa Monica with their twins in tow.
As the babies rested comfortably in their stroller, Paquin and Moyer took a seat in the busy restaurant's lounge, where they dined at a small table.
With Paquin dressed in head-to-toe black and Moyer wearing dark jeans and a dark sweater, the True Blood costars enjoyed conversation while checking on the babies every now and again, an onlooker tells PEOPLE.

She's not yet introduced them formally to the world, but True Blood actress Anna Paquin found time for a Sunday family stroll in Los Angeles with her 2-month-old fraternal twins.
Paquin, 30, was joined by her mom, Mary Paquin, on the post-Thanksgiving outing, as they took in some fresh air with her son and daughter, born in September. Dad is her costar and husband, fellow TV vampire Stephen Moyer.
The Hollywood couple has yet to reveal the names of the twins and have thus far kept their sweet faces private, even as photographers have caught them frequently strolling near their Venice, Calif., home. – Andrea Billups

The only thing tighter than their lips are their abs, but the cast of True Blood let a few spoilers slip Saturday during a panel at Comic-Con – and it looks like Bon Temps is in store for a particularly steamy summer.
"I sexually eviscerate another cast member in one of the episodes coming up," werewolf hunk Joe Manganiello revealed, after showing off his body-rolling skills to the packed room of thousands of fans.
But the lucky lady in question may not be Anna Paquin's Sookie Stackhouse, who got hot and heavy with Manganiello's Alcide Herveaux earlier this season.

Anna Paquin is not one of them.
Although her husband and father of her baby-on-the-way, Stephen Moyer, 42, costars with her on True Blood, the actress has no qualms about filming sex scenes with fellow cast mate Alexander Skarsgard.
"We feel completely comfortable together," Paquin, 29, tells Redbook in its August issue hitting newsstands July 10. "Steve and Alex are buddies. It's nothing like, 'Oh, hi, nice to meet you. Now take off your clothes and go into the fog.' Everyone is respectful of each other's boundaries ... They're all very gentlemanly about it."

DUBLIN, January 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vcfcnj/healthcare_it) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis of the International Healthcare IT Outsourcing Market - Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130307/600769 )
The introduction of information technology in the healthcare and life sciences industries has quickened the healthcare process, thereby reducing costs while efficiently managing huge amounts of patient data. However, the adoption rate of healthcare information technology is still low in many regions due to the high costs incurred for implementation, maintenance, and up-gradation services; poor in-house IT skilled resources; and inadequate IT infrastructure. Outsourcing has emerged as an effective tool to combat these challenges. Outsourcing enables the healthcare and life sciences industries to focus more on their core businesses. Furthermore, it offers various benefits such as reduced operating costs, access to skilled resources, quick deployment, flexibility in the choice of technology and modules, improved cash flow, and risk sharing. The global HCIT outsourcing market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 7.6%, to reach $50.4 billion by 2018 from $35 billion in 2013.
The healthcare IT outsourcing market for this report has been segmented by application and by industry. The application market is further classified as provider IT outsourcing, payer IT outsourcing, life science IT outsourcing, operational IT outsourcing, and infrastructure IT outsourcing. Provider IT outsourcing is further segmented into electronic health records (EHR), laboratory information management system (LIMS), pharmacy information system (PIS), and revenue cycle management (RCM) systems. Payer IT outsourcing includes the following sub-segments, namely, customer relation management (CRM), claim processing, billing system, and fraud and detection.
Life science IT outsourcing is divided into enterprise resource planning (ERP), clinical trial management system (CTMS), clinical data management system (CDMS), and R&D IT services. The sub-segments of operational IT outsourcing included for study are supply chain management (SCM), and business process management (BPM) outsourcing. IT infrastructure outsourcing is further divided into two prominent sub-segments, namely, infrastructure management services (IMS), and cloud computing. The market by industry is segmented as healthcare provider system (including hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, and clinics), biotechnology, pharmaceutical, clinical research organizations, and health insurance.

Falcon Ridge Golf Course
1024 Normandy Ln.
Mesquite, Nevada 89027
(702) 346-6363
Visit Website
A golfing gem in northwest Mesquite, Falcon Ridge Golf Course is one of the most picturesque courses in the entire state. The course is a spectacular combination of truly stunning scenery and outstanding desert golf that will accommodate beginner and skilled players alike. Designed by Kelby Hughes, Falcon Ridge measures more than 6,500 yards for a par of 71. The course winds through rolling canyons and bluffs, featuring dramatic elevation drops, beautiful water elements and gorgeous vistas. Falcon Ridge is accented with intimidating boulders and strategic bunkering, and the immaculate conditioning on the multi-tiered greens and lush fairways make the course a must-play.
While the front nine holes stand out for sheer beauty, particularly the fourth and fifth holes that play uphill, it's the back nine that are known to present quite a challenge. Soaring elevation changes on every hole in the back nine make for an exciting roller-coaster ride that will test the skills of even the seasoned player.
In addition to its truly spectacular course, Falcon Ridge has practice facilities that include a warm up area and putting green. Players can unwind after an invigorating round at the full-service restaurant and bar, and a conference room and pro shop are also on site.
