I knew that I was going to write this blog post about the news concerning the resurgence of measles and its relationship to the dangerous and misguided anti-vaccination movement. The difficulty was with all the lunacy out there I did not quite know where to start. I grew up in the era prior to vaccination against childhood diseases. I had measles, mumps, rubella and chicken pox. I remember the fear people had of these infectious diseases and even as a child I was aware of how welcome these immunizations were when they became available. It seems absolutely inconceivable that decades later people are advocating against vaccines and placing their children and others at risk of infection with potentially devastating diseases.
There now seems to be a perfect storm of parents making poor choices for their children, a few vocal physicians giving bad advice, a staggering number of ill-informed celebrities saying truly stupid things, and political cowardice and hypocrisy failing to react appropriately. Let's talk about the history leading to this unfortunate circumstance. Keep in mind that in the year 2000 measles was considered to have been vanquished in the US. There were a few dozen cases all contracted by people who had travelled overseas. However, these few cases were not transmitted to others because the rate of immunization was so high, despite the high level of contagiousness. This circumstance has now changed with people forgoing the vaccinations and like-minded people creating communities with high levels of the unvaccinated.

Andy was the youngest of the three Davis brothers, who were friends with Mac Taylor when they were children. The oldest brother, Will, would make deliveries for a local mobster named Bobby O'Toole. One night, Mac and Jimmie tagged along. Though they didn't allow Andy to come with them, he discreetly followed them anyway. At O'Toole's apartment, something went wrong and he started beating Will. Mac drew O'Toole's gun out of a drawer to stop him, but was unable to pull the trigger. Jimmie then took it from him and shot O'Toole in the chest, killing him. Unfortunately, Will didn't survive. Mac and Jimmie fled from the scene, unaware that what they did would classify as self-defense. Andy, who witnessed everything unseen, was traumatized for life, but kept it a secret. After Mac's big drug bust in "Snow Day", which led to the press praising him as a hero, he snapped, changed his name to "Drew Bedford" and began stalking Mac, feeling that his hero status was undeserved because he didn't save Will all those years ago. He used "333", O'Toole's apartment number, as his signature. He also started wooing Stella in order to get closer to Mac.
Known Victims
- Mac Taylor (stalked for months; later abducted and attempted to kill; was rescued)
- Kevin Carmichael (pushed through a window and killed)
- The train trap (no fatalities):
- Jimmie Davis (his brother; accidentally shot in the leg with a shotgun)

The user enters the target's subconscious by placing a hand on the target's head and extracts any information needed, even if the target has forgotten it or has had it blocked. A special device can be used to decrease the time it takes to read the target's mind and allows other ninja to assist. Memories that have mental blocks on them will require longer periods of time to probe through and obtain however. Depending on the skill of the user and their level of experience, they will be able to go through days worth of the target's memories in a matter of moments and sift through until they find what they want while other may have to go through each memory in its entirety.[1][2]
- Nagato, through his Human Path, was also able to read minds simply by placing his hand on his target's head. This was effective as it was quick and did not require any devices or machines but had the drawback of permanently extracting the victim's soul afterwards.
- Obito stated that he also could use this ability (on Yamato), but it still would have the drawback of extracting the individual's soul afterwards.
- In Naruto: Shippūden episode 227, Aoba demonstrated the ability to read a targets mind without actually coming into direct physical contact with them.

Patrons rushing for the door got crushed. A complaint says the owners violated a previous court order. It called for the second floor of the building to be closed. Their lawyers have argued the order referred only to balconies above the second floor.

to Reading Recovery at the Watson College of Education
Reading Recovery® is an early intervention program for first grade children intended to significantly reduce reading failure within a school system. Reading Recovery® teachers provide one-on-one tutoring for the lowest achieving first grade children. Most of these children develop effective strategies for reading and writing and reach average levels of classroom performance within 15 to 20 weeks.
Reading Recovery® teacher leaders train teachers at the home site during their first year of teaching. Having a teacher leader is an essential requirement for a Reading Recovery® site. The following key elements of Reading Recovery® operate within educational systems:
- Intensive daily one-to-one instruction for first-grade children most at risk of reading failure
- A year-long training course and continuing professional development for Reading Recovery® teachers
- A research/evaluation program to monitor program results and provide technical support
- A long-range literacy plan to chart a course toward literacy for all children.

Eurostat, the EU's statistics office, said consumer prices in the eurozone were up 1.7 percent in March from the year before, its lowest rate since August 2010 and down from 1.8 percent in February. Weaker energy price inflation was one of the main reasons behind the fall.
Though the decline takes inflation further below the European Central Bank's target of keeping price rises just below 2 percent, no change in interest rates is expected at Thursday's monthly policy meeting.
The ECB has been reluctant to take its main interest rate below the record low of 0.75 percent even though the eurozone is in recession and inflation has dropped.
"Despite muted inflationary pressures and mounting signs that the already weak eurozone economic situation is deteriorating anew, the ECB still looks likely to hold off from cutting interest rates," said Howard Archer, chief European economist at IHS Global Insight.
The decline in inflation in March was widely expected, though some economists were anticipating a bigger drop to 1.6 percent, as prices continue to be weighed down by the recession and high unemployment, which, among other things, keeps a lid on wages and consumer spending.

Federal law requires colleges to have notification systems for emergencies
Cleary Act amended to make it mandatory
SEATTLE - It's a grim fact of life today that colleges across the country are under a constant state of vigilance, prepared to go into emergency mode if a shooter begins firing bullets on campus, as happened at Seattle Pacific University this week.
But although it may seem like such shootings are on the increase, they are sporadic and relatively rare, experts say.
"Campus violent crimes are more rare than in the general population among that age group. But certainly, it's a great tragedy when it happens on campus," said Chris Blake, chief staff officer for the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators.
A federal law in place since the Virginia Tech massacre of 2007 requires colleges to create notification systems that can alert the entire campus community when there is an emergency.
Colleges and universities have invested in systems that can deliver text messages, send alerts through Twitter and Facebook, take over the screens of every networked computer on campus, sound indoor and outdoor alarms and even lock building doors remotely.
"You can never be fast enough," said University of Washington spokesman Norm Arkans. "Speed matters, and reliability of the system matters."
The SPU shooting happened less than two weeks after a 22-year-old man went on a deadly rampage near the campus of the University of California, Santa Barbara. He killed six students before taking his own life.
The worst mass shooting in U.S. history took place on a college campus, in April 2007, when a lone student gunman at Virginia Tech shot and killed 32 students and faculty members before killing himself. Later, Virginia Tech was sharply criticized for failing to alert students immediately that a shooting had taken place.
The federal Cleary Act, a campus crime-reporting law, was amended in 2007 to require all colleges to have an emergency notification system, although it does not specify the type of system that must be used to alert the campus community.
Many colleges and universities have installed sophisticated, redundant systems that use a variety of methods to reach everyone at once.
At SPU on Thursday afternoon, after shots were fired, a message was sent out campuswide via cellphone texts and emails, alerting to students and faculty to the shooting.
"Emergency! A campus lockdown has been initiated. This is not a drill," the first email read.
Clocks throughout the campus began beeping and flashing the word "lockdown" in red letters. Doors locked automatically. Students across campus crouched underneath desks, terrified, while digital information about the crisis played out in real time on their phones.
In a news conference Thursday night, Seattle police praised the university's quick response.
"The shooter," said Arkans, "is everyone's worst nightmare."

Narrow your search
Though the LG Lancet is reliable and inexpensive, the Microsoft Lumia 735 gives you more for your money.
Durable and water resistant, the Kyocera DuraXV is one of the most capable feature phones available.
Water resistance and a long-lasting battery make the Motorola Droid Maxx 2 a standout midrange phone, but it's limited only to Verizon customers.
The versatile Jetpack MiFi 6620L is an excellent mobile hotspot for those who live and travel within Verizon's 4G LTE coverage.
If you don't mind its extra bulk, the Kyocera Brigadier is a rugged and water-resistant device that delivers a modern smartphone experience for a low price.
Even with its hefty design, the Motorola Droid Turbo's robust battery, powerful processor and vivid display put it on the short list for Verizon customers.
With its generously sized screen and smooth performance, the LG Exalt is a top contender in Verizon's line of basic phones.
Save for the LG Lucid 3's disappointing photo quality, the mid-tier device ranks high in its class and is an excellent value on contract.
Pricing not available
The latest LG Lucid handset for Verizon sports a 4.7-inch display and a quad-core processor, and is available for free after users sign a two-year carrier agreement.
Pricing not available
Kyocera's Elite will quench Verizon users' thirst for a stylish and reasonably priced water-resistant phone -- just don't expect it to be a powerful speed demon.

"You know your breast size better than any measuring system, so go with what is comfortable
and looks right to you."
"Keep reading. The following sections contain the preferred methods to measure for an exact bra fit. "
•Meet Tomima
Many factors affect our bust measurements, such as pregnancy, exercise, birth control pills and weight fluctuations.
Did you know the average woman wears six different bra sizes throughout her life?
If you own a bra that fits you well, that bra represents your correct bra size. That bra also represents a good brand
for you. Every lingerie manufacturer has its unique take on fit. Like shoes, if you find a brand that fits and is comfortable,
chances are their other styles will fit you as well. You should look to that brand first before venturing out to others.
I've looked at dozens of measuring systems, carefully tested them, and spoken to many experts in the industry. What I've
learned is that no one measuring system gives an accurate result for every woman - measuring for a bra is not an exact science.
So, what's a woman to do? Armed with a few guidelines and common sense, you can figure out your correct bra size. All things
considered, it will be worth your while to grab a tape measure and check your size. (Download a Printable Tape Measure here.)
Keeping in mind the many variations in measuring systems, this is the closest I've come to an accurate way to measure for a bra.
My system is great for determining band size. Cup size is always the difficult calculation. Don't be surprised if the calculation
results in the wrong cup size.

NBS Helps Communities Fund Tomorrow with an Eye to Sustainability
From the flow of water to the flow of revenue, NBS helps facilitate the intricate balancing act that keeps communities running fiscally strong. NBS consultants and engineers have provided focused financial consulting, assessment engineering, special assessment software, ongoing special assessment, tax and fee administration, and related support to over 300 public agencies. The ultimate goal of NBS is to ensure quality results for the local public agencies it serves so that they are seen as serving their constituents in an exemplary manner.
NBS is also committed to being part of the solution to avoid overuse of resources in our economy today, striving to be good business partners with its local government clients.
Tim Seufert, Managing Director of NBS, put it very plainly: "Being "green" is good for our planet, our people and our bottom line. What can we do about global warming and our significant impact on the environment? We can simply lessen our business impact on the environment."
In 2007, NBS began measuring and neutralizing the carbon emissions associated with its office energy consumption and business-related travel. NBS's support of Carbonfund.org helps fight the effects of climate change through innovative projects such as the Tensas River reforestation project in Louisiana that absorbs carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as well as the Truck Stop Electrification project that has enabled truckers to reduce tailpipe emissions, saving a gallon of diesel per hour.
Over the past seven years, NBS has mitigated the effects of 875,000 pounds of carbon emissions through its support of Carbonfund.org's carbon reduction projects. This equates to removing the carbon dioxide produced by burning almost 45,000 gallons of gasoline.
In addition to neutralizing carbon emissions from unavoidable business travel and office energy usage, NBS continues to reduce its operational impact on the environment by:
• Minimizing usage of disposable materials by minimizing hard copy printouts in presentations and using dishware in the office instead of paper and plastic;
• Recycling paper and most food and beverage containers;
• Purchasing "good" paper and printing services, such as recycled paper and paper that meets the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) standards; and
• Prescribing to Carbonfund.org's motto of "reduce what you can, offset what you can't™" by minimizing travel via technology and online conferencing tools in lieu of physical travel.
NBS is a great example of a consultancy focused on improving the efficient, sustainable operation of communities by maintaining those principles within its own organization. Carbonfund.org congratulates NBS on its seventh year of carbon neutral operations.
Carbonfund.org and Propel Fuels Partner to Create At-the-Pump Offsetting Option
As part of Carbonfund.org's mission toward a ZeroCarbonTM world, our programs make it easy and affordable for any individual, business or organization to reduce and offset their climate impact and hasten the transition to a clean energy future. This focus on simplicity and affordability made it a natural to expand our partnership with CarbonFree® Business Partner Propel Fuels to create an at-the-gas-pump CarbonOffset program supporting clean air technology.
Last May, Carbonfund.org partnered with Propel Fuels, a retailer of renewable fuels that began offering consumers the ability to offset their driving emissions at the Clean Mobility Center in Fullerton, California any time they fill their gas tank. Customers may select the CarbonOffset option at the pump, and the funds will go towards Carbonfund.org's clean air projects that spur technology developments to reduce carbon emissions.
Since CarbonOffset was launched in May, customers have chosen to contribute $1.00 per fill to fully offset the emissions from their fuel purchase more than 1,000 times. The two-month pilot has offset more than 160,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions at this single station, which is equivalent to taking 84 cars off the road in the same two-month time period. CarbonOffset contributions from the program's first year of operation will help support Carbonfund.org's Truck Stop Electrification project, which improves air quality around truck stops and surrounding communities and offers drivers, employees and residents a cleaner and quieter environment with fewer harmful air pollutants.
"The early success of Propel's CarbonOffset program is strong evidence that consumers are ready and willing to support clean energy, especially if the cost and benefits are clear," said Eric Carlson, President of Carbonfund.org. "Thanks to Propel, thousands of drivers can vote with their dollars to support clean energy and domestic, renewable fuels."
If the CarbonOffset program continues at its current rate of participation, the program has the potential to offset more than 5 million pounds of carbon emissions over the next five years at this station alone, making a measurable contribution to emission reductions and a cleaner environment. Carbonfund.org is proud to partner in this ground-breaking program and to facilitate a simple and cost-effective method for vehicle emissions offsetting through supporting clean air technology.

Bulletins and reports
Finland's participation in the peacekeeping operation in Southern Lebanon is supported. The ABDI Survey 11/2006
Three-fourths (74%) of Finns support Finland's decision to deploy peacekeepers to the UN operation in southern Lebanon. From the perspective of security in the region, 71 per cent consider this a positive thing, and from the viewpoint of Finnish foreign policy, 73 per cent of the population thinks so.
This survey was conducted to ascertain the opinions of Finns on Finnish foreign and security policy as well as on defence policy.

A Colorado inmate suspected of being the "Ether Man" serial rapist has been sentenced to 156 years in prison on rape charges in New Mexico.
Robert Howard Bruce was sentenced Tuesday in an Albuquerque court after pleading guilty to nine charges of rape.
Bruce is serving a 64-year sentence for attempting to blow up a police officer's home. He is accused of being the Ether Man, who was known for using chemicals to subdue dozens of rape victims in Colorado, New Mexico and Texas.
He has also been linked to rapes in Oklahoma.
It was unclear which attorney in New Mexico was representing Bruce.
He will serve his time in Pueblo, Colo.

The Kurio 7S from Techno Source is a fully functioning, 7-inch, Android tablet that is designed for families to share. The 7S has the Android 4.2 operating system, 8 gigabytes of storage, Wi-Fi, a USB adapter, external speakers, headphone jack and front and rear facing cameras.
The 7S comes preloaded with more than 75 apps, including popular games like Angry Birds, Cut The Rope and Fruit Ninja. There are also E-books from Disney with interactive stories for Cars, Disney Princesses and Toy Story. Additional interactive books include an Avengers interactive story read by Stan Lee. There are also several educational apps that help kids learn essential skills like color and shape recognition, Math, Spelling and Geography.
Sharing the tablet is a big feature of the 7S, which is why it comes with the ability to set up eight User Profiles. A parent or caregiver can create an owner profile and then set up another seven profiles for different members of the family. Each profile has a few presets that allow adults to set some restrictions, which is great because this tablet comes with a web browser.
The tablet comes in a bright blue silicone bumper but when you take it out of the bumper, it looks like any other Android tablet on the market. This makes it a great tablet for kids around the ages of 5 and up because at that age, they are starting to recognize the difference between a child's tablet and the one that their parents or caretakers use. The real tablet look of the Kurio 7S will also make this appealing to older kids and tweens.
Additional apps can be downloaded through the Kurio App Store, which is a family-friendly app store that requires a Kurio account to access. Those accounts can only be created by a person 21 and over, which gives adults control over the tablet. Parents also have a Parental Area that allows them to further control what each profile can do with the 7S tablet.
Unlike other Android tablets, the Kurio 7S cannot access the Google Play app store, which means the only apps that can be added are the ones available through the Kurio App Store. This is great for parental control but it limits the appeal to older kids and tweens who might like this tablet if it had the ability to access Google Play.

Peoria, AZ (SportsNetwork.com) - Dustin Ackley's bases-clearing double fueled

Ackley finished 2-for-3, while Robinson Cano added two hits and an RBI for the
Mariners. Nick Franklin and Ketel Marte also drove in a run.
Ramon Ramirez picked up the win by tossing two innings of scoreless relief for
Blake Beavan, who started the contest and allowed four hits and one run over
three frames.
Rob Scahill was tagged for all the runs while recording only two outs in the
deciding frame in defeat. Brandon Barnes hit safely twice and drove in a run
for the Rockies.

Investigators say the call came from the 800 block of Durham Lake Road near Dudley Wednesday morning.
Deputies tell WITN one man, whose name has not yet been released, was shot and wounded. His injuries are not life-threatening, according to investigators.
Wayne County authorities said the shots were fired outside of a home on Durham Lakes Road, but no suspect information is available at this time.

Note: This entry was orignially posted on National School Boards Association's (NSBA) Center for Public Education's blog The Edifier.
It took awhile but states will finally be able to count those students who take longer than four years to earn a high school diploma (late graduates) as graduates through a common graduation rate formula that all states must use starting this summer. NSBA has been fighting for this change ever since the Center released its Better Late Than Never: Examining late high school graduates report over two and half years ago which showed that late graduate's were more successful after high school in terms of earning a college degree, finding a good job, civic engagement and living healthier than those students who earned a GED or never earned a high school credential. As a matter for fact, late graduates' postsecondary outcomes outcomes did not differ much from those students who graduated on-time. So there was little reason why late graduates shouldn't have been counted as graduates.
The adoption of the common rate enables states to report an extended-year rate which would include late graduates that are currently not counted in most state gradation rates. In a press release announcing the common rate the U.S. Department of Education declared:
States may also opt to use an extended-year adjusted cohort, allowing states, districts and schools to account for students who complete high school in more than four years.
Moreover, in the release Secretary Arne Duncan stated that a common rate "…will also encourage states to account for students who need more than four years to earn a diploma."
This is a major step forward in giving districts credit where credit is due by counting all students who earn a standard high school diploma as graduates not just those who earn a diploma in four years. However, how districts get credit, if any, for their late graduates under Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) / No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) and most state accountability systems is still unclear. Hopefully Congress will reauthorize ESEA soon and put into law that indeed late graduates are graduates even for accountability sake.

The Republican plan to eliminate more quickly the $2.5 billion North Carolina owes the federal government for unemployment benefits is now just one step away from Gov. Pat McCrory's desk and his likely signature after a vote in the state Senate.
Senators gave tentative approval Tuesday to the House measure that would require higher taxes on businesses but also cut maximum weekly benefits for the future unemployed by one-third. A final Senate vote is likely Wednesday before the bill goes to the new governor. McCrory had said he supports the bill.
The bill passed by a vote of 36-13. GOP legislators defeated several Democratic amendments, including one that would delay benefit changes until next January so federal extended emergency benefits could continue for 170,000 displaced workers.

OpenPCR: DNA amplification for anyone
OpenPCR is a cool new project dedicated to building plans for an open source PCR machine. There's not much inherently complicated about a PCR machine and it's about time — a PCR machine built with $300 in parts using a modern software controller will likely be as powerful as any non-realtime PCR out there. Of course, the reagent pricing is what gets you.
Josh and Tito are raising money for this project using Kickstarter. $1024 gets them to build you a PCR machine, which is a reasonably good deal in the scheme of scientific equipment. I gave them $8, because I like stickers and already have a PCR machine that doesn't exactly get a lot of use.

Eminent Domain: Abuse of Government Power?
Recorded: Tuesday, January 31, 2006
In June 2005, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Kelo v. New London that local governments may force property owners to sell out and to make way for private economic development, even if the property is not blighted. In response, many states have passed legislation and proposed amendments to their state constitutions to block this unprecedented government assault on the rights of property owners.

Step 1.
Attach a cleaning brush that is the same size as the caliber or gauge of your firearm onto a cleaning rod. Pour a small amount of cleaning solution into an open container, such as a film canister, and dip the brush into the cleaning solution. Dipping the brush directly into the bottle of cleaning solution will contaminate the entire supply.
Place the cleaning rod with a brush attached into the bore and work the brush down the entire length of the barrel.
Remove the cleaning brush from the cleaning rod and attach the slotted patch holder onto the cleaning rod. Attach a clean patch onto the slotted patch holder and run the patch down the entire length of the barrel. Next, use the bore light to inspect the action and bore. If you spot any more residue, use another patch until it's completely clean.
Attach a clean, well-oiled patch onto the slotted patch holder and run it down the entire length of the barrel. The oil will prevent rust in the barrel. Your barrel is now clean!
Use a copper cleaning brush and work it around the bolt, bolt face and action to remove any powder residue. Wipe the bolt and action clean and apply a thin coat of oil.
Wipe down the entire firearm with a lightly oiled rag to clean and protect the outside surface.

11 News reporter Alyssa Chin played willing victim for firefighters in an ice rescue training session at Memorial Park in Colorado Springs Saturday afternoon.
The training comes at a time when firefighters say they've been seeing an increase in ice rescues. The Colorado Springs Fire and Rescue team said their main goal is to keep people off the ice.
For an up close look into how rescues work, first things first. I had to get into a safety training suit. Then the training began. I hopped into water that was just 40 degrees and followed instructions, which was to wait for help.
Firefighters said if we're ever trapped, there are three key things all people need to remember.
"Not to panic, hold onto the (ice) shelf, and wait for help."
Rescuers told me they always go around to the back of the victim to create leverage with the rope.
"We got ahead and make a certain signal that we go ahead and the patient starts getting pulled up on the ice," firefighter/heavy rescuer Eric Ruettinger said.
The training was all done under the watchful eye and safety of those trained firefighters.
Already this season CSFD has been called out to several rescues for pet owners who went onto the ice after their animals. Firefighters said it's the inconsistent temperatures that create the patchy and unsafe ice.
We asked pet owners what they would do if their pets ran out on their own.
"I think I'd be too scared to jump into the ice."
"I probably would for my little dog, if it were my child though, definitely, 100 percent."
"The last thing that would help her is me falling in too."
Last year we saw an ice rescue turn deadly after a man went in after his dog and drowned. Rescuers told me they understand animals will venture off on their own, but they will always be there to help if called. They said there is no reason anyone should put themselves in a bad situation.
"Just please stay on the shore. Call to (your pets), they're going to try to come back to you, most likely. They may be out chasing the ducks. We understand that, but try to call to them from the shore, do not go out onto the ice," Ruettinger said.
Firefighters say the best advice: stay off the ice.

REDD Remedies At Ease PM 30 Vegetarian Capsules
Redd Remedies At Ease PM is designed to help you fall asleep and stay asleep all night long, so you can wake up refreshed.*
Do you have trouble falling asleep at night?
We all have experienced a night of tossing and turning—staring at the clock and counting the minutes until we have to get up for the day. Irritability, lack of focus, nervous tension and fatigue rule our daily activities.
A good night's sleep is as important to health as a good diet of nutritious foods and exercise. Sleep presents the body an opportunity to repair and rebuild. It also gives the mind an opportunity to process the stresses and events of the day. While we may focus on sleeplessness and restlessness at night, sleep problems can actually begin during the day. Anxiety and nervous tension are some main causes of restlessness.
At Ease PM has 4 key functions that provide a wonderful night's sleep:
Promotes neurotransmitter balance*
Key Ingredients
B-vitamins promote healthy neurotransmitter levels in the brain, including GABA and serotonin.*

- "And one day, Willem came riding back into town. And I buried an axesword so deep into Willem's skull they had to bury him with it. Willem's horse got me to the Wall and I've been wearing black ever since."
- ―Yoren
Yoren is a recurring character in the first and second seasons. He is played by Francis Magee and debuts in "Lord Snow." Yoren was a recruiter for the Night's Watch.
Yoren is a sworn brother of the Night's Watch, in which he serves as a recruiter. He was forced to join the Watch after murdering the killer of his brother with an axe. His job is to travel the Seven Kingdoms searching for fresh recruits, either willing ones or (more frequently) criminals that choose a lifetime on the Wall over punishments such as death or mutilation.[1]
Season 1Yoren meets Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister, and Benjen Stark as they are traveling north to the wall. He arrives at their camp with two rapers, one of which is Rast.
Tyrion Lannister befriends Yoren at Castle Black, enjoying the fact that Yoren has a sense of humour, unlike most of his comrades. They talk about what is the strangest thing you've ever eaten, Tyrion asks if Dornish women count. Yoren considers Benjen Stark as a close friend and ally and sees him off when he departs on a ranging beyond the Wall. He agrees to travel with Tyrion on the Kingsroad back to King's Landing to pick up more recruits from the city dungeons.[2] He is present when Commander Mormont asks Tyrion to use his connections to intercede on behalf of the Night's Watch for more and better quality recruits and funds to rebuild.
Yoren and Tyrion arrive at Winterfell, Robb says pointedly that any man of the Night's Watch is welcome as a guest (making it clear that Tyrion is not welcome). After Tyrion gives Bran the plans for a new saddle Robb changes his mind, but Tyrion says he would prefer the brothel in town. On the road south, he is still travelling with Tyrion when they reach the Crossroads Inn, where he witnesses Tyrion being taken into custody by Catelyn Stark.[3] Yoren rides with all speed to the Red Keep, where he finds Ned Stark and is introduced to Arya (after first mistaking her for a boy). After Jory takes Arya from the room Yoren is able to warn Eddard Stark about his wife's actions before they become public. Eddard agrees to let Yoren comb the city dungeons for fresh recruits for the watch.[4]When Eddard is confronted with his wife's actions he then takes the blame saying she acted on his orders, leading to confrontations with Robert Baratheon and Jaime Lannister.
Eddard is arrested for treason when he questions the legitimacy of the king's successor, Joffrey Baratheon. Eddard is brought to the Great Sept of Baelor to stand trial and Arya watches from the square. To see over the heads of the crowd, she climbs onto the pedestal of Baelor's statue. When Eddard is brought out he spots her. Then as Eddard is pulled through the crowd, he goes past Yoren and manages to point her out to Yoren by head jerk and saying "Baelor" hoping that Yoren will recognize her and wishing him to protect Arya. Despite a confession Eddard is unexpectedly executed on Joffrey's orders.[5]
Yoren Grabs Arya as she is trying to rush to her father. She is pushing her way through the crowd trying to draw her sword. He holds her still, covers her ears, and keeps her from witnessing the beheading by blocking her view. Once out of the square he cuts Arya's hair with a knife and instructs her to pose as a boy. He intends to take her north to Winterfell and safety, hiding her among a group of 20 recruits for the Night's Watch He instructs her to go by the name Arry the orphan boy, because no one cares or asks questions of orphans. Yoren warns her not to trust the other recruits, as any of them could turn her in for a reward, or rape her. [6]
Season 2
Yoren takes the recruits along the Kingsroad into the Riverlands. He warns the rest of the party to stay away from the three prisoners caged in the wagon. Two gold cloaks find the party camped in the Riverlands. The lead gold cloak calls to Yoren, asking if he is in command of the group. Yoren ignores the question and tells them that they are a long way from home. He walks across a wooden bridge towards the visitors. The gold cloak reminds Yoren that he asked a question and Yoren says that he asked without manners so he chose not to answer. Yoren grips the blanket that protects the gold cloaks horse from the saddle. The gold cloak produces a scroll and says that it is a royal warrant for one of Yoren's "gutter rats". Yoren says that the recruits belong to the Night's Watch and are beyond the reach of kings and queens. The gold cloak moves to draw his sword but is halted when Yoren places the point of his dagger against his femoral artery. Yoren notes that men worry about their throats but often forget about the vulnerability of their lower regions. He tells the gold cloak that he has sharpened the knife and warns him that no-one can save him if the artery is nicked. Yoren takes the man's sword, saying that good steel is always needed on the wall. The recruits have surrounded the gold cloaks, weapons in hand. One of them picks up the sword from the ground. Yoren tells the gold cloak that he has a choice; die there or return to King's Landing and tell his master that they did not find what they were looking for. The gold cloak defiantly shouts that they are looking for Gendry and describes the bull's head helmet that he carries. He offers a reward to anyone turning him over and promises that he will return with more men. He warns Yoren that he will take his head home along with the "bastard boy".[7]
Arya sits up cleaning Needle while the rest of the recruits sleep. Yoren enters and sits across from her. He notices her watching him and asks what she wants. She asks him how he sleeps with the terrible things that he has seen. He says that he prevented her from seeing her father's execution. She says that she cannot forget seeing the Queen, Joffrey and Sansa standing next to him on the podium. He tells her about the murder of his brother by a boy named Willem. He says that he thought constantly about revenge and eventually made it a ritual to say the killer's name before falling asleep. When Willem returned to town Yoren killed him with an axe and then took his horse to ride to the Wall and join the Night's Watch to avoid prosecution. He urges Arya to get some sleep but they are interrupted by horns sounding outside. Yoren wakes his recruits and marshals them for a fight. He warns Arya and Gendry to stay out of sight and flee north if the fight is lost. Lommy picks up Gendry's bull helm. As they rush outside one man trips and drops his torch, setting a fire near the prisoner wagon.[8]
They are met by Ser Amory Lorch and a force of men loyal to House Lannister. Lorch points out the Gold Cloaks with him and says that they have come for Gendry. Lorch orders Yoren and the recruits to drop their weapons. Yoren remains defiant and Lorch orders him shot. Yoren takes a quarrel to the shoulder but kills the crossbowman before he can reload. Yoren fights alone, killing several men before he is overwhelmed. Lorch himself kills Yoren by driving his sword through the back of his neck.[8]

- "I always hated crossbows, take too long to load!."
- ―Yoren's last words
- "I sharpened this blade before breakfast... I could shave a spider's arse if I wanted to."
- ―Yoren threatens to cut the Gold Cloak leader's femoral artery
- "This lot, half of them would turn you over to the king quick as spit for a pardon. And the other half would do the same, except they'd rape you first. So keep to yourself, and if you have to piss, do it in the woods, alone."
- ―Yoren warns Arya about the recruits for the Night's Watch
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels Yoren is a stalwart soldier of the Watch, not the most refined member but loyal and trustworthy. He is described as having lice in his thick beard. His work as a recruiter means he frequently travels throughout the realm searching for new men to join the Watch. Thus he often passes through Winterfell, and he knows the members of House Stark and has a certain loyalty to them. He meets privately with Ned Stark as in the show, but then also appears formally before the court to ask for recruits. Eddard Stark asks all the knights present if any will do honor to their names and volunteer. No one does, then permission is given to comb the dungeons.
In the books there is no mentioning if Yoren has any relatives. The story about Willem and how Yoren came to the Wall doesn't appear in the book nor the ritual of saying Willem's name: Arya starts that ritual on her own. Yoren gives Arya a bad spanking when she beats up Hot Pie after he tried to take her sword. She can't sit down for awhile, but still comes off better than Hot Pie. Yoren also tells Arya that the execution wasn't supposed to happen. The reason Yoren was at the Great Sept of Baelor and not already on the road is that Varys had contacted him and told him that Lord Eddard was to be given mercy and allowed take the black and would be traveling with Yoren back to the Wall. When he tells her something must have gone wrong she replies, "Joffrey."
Yoren plans to take Arya back to Winterfell, but as he approaches the lands south of Harrenhal and witnesses the devastation left by the war in the Riverlands he wishes he had never come by the Kingsroad. He has taken this road for thirty years and has only lost three recruits (one to illness, one to snake bite, and one who tried to cut Yoren's throat as he slept). Even if he had to leave the wagons and give up the possibility of continued recruitment, he wishes he had hired passage on a ship. Because of the officially neutral position of the Night's Watch in politics he left the city unarmed, a decision he regrets as he takes his recruits on difficult paths to avoid groups of soldiers who would take their wagons supplies, and possibly also forcibly conscript them.
In the book, Yoren's group takes shelter in a deserted keep and then tries to defend it against Ser Amory Lorch. Unlike the Gold Cloaks who encountered the group earlier, Amory was not looking for Gendry, but picked a fight with Yoren's group without any reason or provocation.
In the TV series we see Lord Commander Mormont's letter arrive at the capital telling of the attack by reanimated Night's Watch soldiers and asking for more men. The books also show the results of sending Ser Alliser Thorne with the severed hand to King's Landing with a jar holding the still twitching dead hand of the reanimated ranger that attacked Mormont, to show the royal court. When Tyrion is told that a man of the Night's Watch wants an audience he firsts asks if it's one named Yoren (as they are friends and he is unaware that Yoren is already dead because of Cersei's orders to find and kill Gendry). When he is told it is Ser Alliser Thorne, Tyrion remembers his distaste for the man and tells the guards to make him wait for days in a shabby room. It's weeks before Ser Alliser gets an audience, and by then the hand rots to pieces, so the royal court does not believe him.
According to the TV series official pronunciation guide developed for the cast and crew, "Yoren" is pronounced "YOR-in", as opposed to "Your-ENN", etc.

Maine's Bureau of Insurance today approved the health exchange network proposed by MaineHealth and Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, with some modifications.
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) _ A health exchange proposed under the Affordable Health Care Act by MaineHealth and Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield has cleared a major hurdle.
The Bureau of Insurance on Thursday approved the proposed network of hospitals and physicians, with some modifications.
The Portland Press Herald reported that Maine Insurance Superintendent Eric Cioppa wrote in his order that Anthem's network is "capable of providing 'reasonable access to health service.'''
The bureau still has to approve pricing and whether existing customers can be moved into the new plans.
Central Maine HealthCare had slammed the proposed Anthem-MaineHealth network as a "backroom deal'' that discriminated against subscribers in central and western parts of the state, who'd have to travel farther for care.
MPBN Radio will have more on this story this evening on Maine Things Considered, beginning at 5:30 p.m.
