Today I took my oldest daughter to Freshman Orientation. It was an exciting day, and I really enjoyed the two hour drive with her.
The day we move her into the dorm will be our 20th wedding anniversary. Two big milestones that I'm sure will leave me in a state of pondering, if not a bit emotional.
I had the option of staying for parent orientation, and I briefly considered it. The topics being presented didn't seem like they would be very interesting, and it was much too warm to be meeting under a tent, so I opted to spend the day on my own.

- Low cost and high performance Al nanoparticles for broadband light trapping in Si wafer solar cells
- Author(s)
- Zhang, Yinan; Ouyang, Zi; Stokes, Nicholas; Jia, Baohua; Shi, Zhengrong; Gu, Min
- Abstract
- In this paper low cost and earth abundant Al nanoparticles are simulated and compared with noble metal nanoparticles Ag and Au for plasmonic light trapping in Si wafer solar cells. It has been found tailored Al nanoparticles enable broadband light trapping leading to a 28.7% photon absorption enhancement in Si wafers, which is much larger than that induced by Ag or Au. Once combined with the SiNx anti-reflection coating, Al nanoparticles can produce a 42.5% enhancement, which is 4.3% higher than the standard SiNx due to the increased absorption in both the blue and near-infrared regions.

Economic opportunity
To build a brighter economic future, we know that young people around the world need education, resources and support. Watch the video above to learn how we're empowering young people in Africa to go after their dreams, start their own businesses, and succeed — no matter what challenges they may face.
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.
All stories about Economic opportunity
Kosovo: Making the economy buzz
Ali Rama is a 50-year-old beekeeper from the Vushtri Municipality in northern Kosovo. While Ali has enjoyed relative success in his honey production and sales for the last 10 years, he was looking to expand his business into new opportunities.
Kosovo: How a tractor changes everything
The village of Videja is a rural community of 1,000 residents near the Dukagjini Valley, the heart of western Kosovo's agricultural lands.
Kosovo: Not small potatoes
Naim Fejza is a veteran potato farmer in the small town of Mogila in southern Kosovo. For his entire adult life, he and his household — which includes his parents, wife and three children — have eked out a living on the small income from the sales of potatoes on their farm.
Uganda: In northern Uganda, hope springs eternal
As the brutal twenty-year civil war in Uganda has unofficially ended, many non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have exited Pader — a district in the country's northern Acholiland — which was for many years at the epicenter of atrocities committed by the rebel Lord's Resistance Army (LRA).
Vote now to help bring healthier food to children!
Over the past several months, we've posted many articles about our Kedai Balitaku (My Child's Café) program to help bring healthy food to Indonesia children. You may have read about it — and now's your chance to help us do more with the program!
Kyrgyzstan: A fund in Kyrgyzstan to rebuild micro-enterprises

Needs Grow As Economic Crisis Spreads
How is the economic crisis affecting you? Most of us are feeling it in some way. We're thinking harder about what we can afford and what we can do without. Routine purchases a few months ago now seem unnecessary or out of financial reach.
Uganda: From our photo library: An 'Easter egg' from Uganda
Staff members send me photos they've come across pretty regularly. The special ones I call "Easter eggs" because they're such a pleasant discovery.
Haiti: Bringing help to Haiti's rural economy
An estimated 90,000 earthquake survivors fled Port-au-Prince to Haiti's Central Plateau. Even before the quake, this was one of the country's poorest regions. Its agricultural economy has suffered from environmental degradation and poor infrastructure.
Tajikistan: Sewing for success
Last week I visited Mercy Corps' first youth employment project to get started under the Tajikistan Stability Enhancement Program, the program I'm assisting with this summer. In the sweltering heat, we entered a small room with five girls working away on sewing machines.

As a student at Columbia College, Earl Sewell studied both fiction and screenwriting and by the age of twenty he'd written several short stories and a screenplay. Throughout his college years he worked at his local library where he spent a large amount of his free time reading a variety of fiction and romance novels.
Shortly after college Sewell wrote his first novel but after querying publishers and receiving more than twenty rejection letters, Sewell abandoned the dream of becoming a published author.
Years later, after losing his mother to heart failure, Sewell gave writing another shot. He completed his second novel and decided to publish the book on his own. He launched his own publishing company called Katie Books, which he named in honor of his mother. His second effort was a hit with readers and Sewell began to gain a loyal following. Two years later he signed a publishing agreement with a major publishing house. Over the years he has written six novels and has had short stories published in three anthologies and several national romance magazines.
In addition to writing, Sewell has bicycled with a touring group from Red Wing, MN, to Bar Harbor, ME, and recently completed his third Chicago Marathon. He also volunteers as a motivational speaker, touring the country to speak to students about being an author, his life-long love of athletics as well as the power of a positive attitude. In his spare time Sewell enjoys restoring old furniture and gardening. He lives in South Holland, IL, where he is working on his next novel.

Ex. Ord. No. 12999. Educational Technology: Ensuring Opportunity for All Children in the Next Century
In order to ensure that American children have the skills they need to succeed in the information-intensive 21st century, the Federal Government is committed to working with the private sector to promote four major developments in American education: making modern computer technology an integral part of every classroom; providing teachers with the professional development they need to use new technologies effectively; connecting classrooms to the National Information Infrastructure; and encouraging the creation of excellent educational software. This Executive order streamlines the transfer of excess and surplus Federal computer equipment to our Nation's classrooms and encourages Federal employees to volunteer their time and expertise to assist teachers and to connect classrooms.
Accordingly, by the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the provisions of the Stevenson-Wydler Technology Innovation Act of 1980, as amended (15 U.S.C. 3701et seq.), the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, ch. 288, 63 Stat. 377 [now chapters 1 to 11 of this title and division C (except sections 3302, 3307 (e), 3501 (b), 3509, 3906, 4710, and 4711) of subtitle I of Title 41, Public Contracts], and the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996, Public Law 104–106 [see Tables for classification], it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Protection of Educationally Useful Federal Equipment. (a) Educationally useful Federal equipment is a vital national resource. To the extent such equipment can be used as is, separated into parts for other computers, or upgraded—either by professional technicians, students, or other recycling efforts—educationally useful Federal equipment is a valuable tool for computer education. Therefore, to the extent possible, all executive departments and agencies (hereinafter referred to as "agencies") shall protect and safeguard such equipment, particularly when declared excess or surplus, so that it may be recycled and transferred, if appropriate, pursuant to this order.
Sec. 2. Efficient Transfer of Educationally Useful Federal Equipment to Schools and Nonprofit Organizations. (a) To the extent permitted by law, all agencies shall give highest preference to schools and nonprofit organizations, including community-based educational organizations, ("schools and nonprofit organizations") in the transfer, through gift or donation, of educationally useful Federal equipment.
(b) Agencies shall attempt to give particular preference to schools and nonprofit organizations located in the Federal enterprise communities and empowerment zones established in the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1993, Public Law 103–66 [see 26 U.S.C. 1391 et seq.].
(c) Each agency shall, to the extent permitted by law and where appropriate, identify educationally useful Federal equipment that it no longer needs and transfer it to a school or nonprofit organization by:
(1) conveying research equipment directly to the school or organization pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 3710 (i); or
(2) reporting excess equipment to the General Services Administration (GSA) for donation when declared surplus in accordance with section 203(j) of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as amended, 40 U.S.C. 484(j) [now 40 U.S.C. 549]. Agencies shall report such equipment as far as possible in advance of the date the equipment becomes excess, so that GSA may attempt to arrange direct transfers from the donating agency to recipients eligible under this order.
(d) In transfers made pursuant to paragraph (c)(1) of this section, title shall transfer directly from the agency to the schools or nonprofit organizations as required by 15 U.S.C. 3710 (i). All such transfers shall be reported to the GSA. At the direction of the recipient institution or organization, and if appropriate, transferred equipment may be conveyed initially to a nonprofit reuse or recycling program that will upgrade it before transfer to the school or nonprofit organization holding title.
(e) All transfers to schools or nonprofit organizations, whether made directly or through GSA, shall be made at the lowest cost to the school or nonprofit organization permitted by law.
(f) The availability of educationally useful Federal equipment shall be made known to eligible recipients under this order by all practicable means, including newspaper, community announcements, and the Internet.
(g) The regional Federal Executive Boards shall help facilitate the transfer of educationally useful Federal equipment from the agencies they represent to recipients eligible under this order.
Sec. 3. Assisting Teachers' Professional Development: Connecting Classrooms. (a) Each agency that has employees who have computer expertise shall, to the extent permitted by law and in accordance with the guidelines of the Office of Personnel Management, encourage those employees to:
(1) help connect America's classrooms to the National Information Infrastructure;
(2) assist teachers in learning to use computers to teach; and
(3) provide ongoing maintenance of and technical support for the educationally useful Federal equipment transferred pursuant to this order.
(b) Each agency described in subsection (a) shall submit to the Office of Science and Technology Policy, within 6 months of the date of this order, an implementation plan to advance the developments described in this order, particularly those required in this section. The plan shall be consistent with approved agency budget totals and shall be coordinated through the Office of Science and Technology Policy.
(c) Nothing in this order shall be interpreted to bar a recipient of educationally useful Federal equipment from lending that equipment, whether on a permanent or temporary basis, to a teacher, administrator, student, employee, or other designated person in furtherance of educational goals.
Sec. 4. Definitions. For the purposes of this order: (a) "Schools" means individual public or private education institutions encompassing prekindergarten through twelfth grade, as well as public school districts.
(b) "Community-based educational organizations" means nonprofit entities that are engaged in collaborative projects with schools or that have education as their primary focus. Such organizations shall qualify as nonprofit educational institutions or organizations for purposes of section 203(j) of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as amended [now 40 U.S.C. 549].
(c) "Educationally useful Federal equipment" means computers and related peripheral tools (e.g., printers, modems, routers, and servers), including telecommunications and research equipment, that are appropriate for use in prekindergarten, elementary, middle, or secondary school education. It shall also include computer software, where the transfer of licenses is permitted.
(d) "Nonprofit reuse or recycling program" means a 501(c) organization able to upgrade computer equipment at no or low cost to the school or nonprofit organization taking title to it.
(e) "Federal Executive Boards," as defined in 5 C.F.R. Part 960, are regional organizations of each Federal agency's highest local officials.
Sec. 5. This order shall supersede Executive Order No. 12821 of November 16, 1992.
Sec. 6. Judicial Review. This order is not intended, and should not be construed, to create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law by a party against the United States, its agencies, its officers, or its employees.William J. Clinton.

A program that offers assistance to residents with mental health disabilities has found a way to stay open after being on the verge of having to shutdown.
Medicaid funded Lifequest Incorporated of Washington was on the verge of being closed down last month.
East Carolina Behavioral Health, the organization that manages the program, overturned that decision.
For eight years Lifequest has helped people with mental health disabilities learn life skills and overcome daily challenges. Program director Adam Congelton says after they appealed to ECBH October 30th they received a letter Monday saying they would be allowed to continue operating as long as they make some changes.
Congelton says, "They helped us identify some areas of improvement. We do have a chance to do a plan of correction now and we will have a follow up with ECBH and we anticipate implementing this plan of correction and that going smoothly."
Congleton says over the past few weeks when they believed they would close they lost 20 clients and had to let go of three staff members. They are now working to get the staff and the clients back.

From bikes to tires to hydration systems, the right gear is essential to finishing the seven-day stage race. Here's what worked for one rider. --Louis Mazzante
I've been riding this SRAM XO 2x10 drivetrain for more than a year, and it's been remarkably worry free. My only hope would that my run of trouble-free rides would continue across the race's seven stages. With a 39/26 front chainring combination and 11/36 spread in the back, the set up has a wide gear range that proved low enough to spin up steep trails that other riders hiked, and sprint past slower riders on the flats—though those opportunities were few and far between. Despite some muddy initial stages and 200 miles of racing, the drivetrain worked so flawlessly I didn't even have to turn a barrel adjuster—it felt as smooth and crisp crossing the finish line as it was when the race started.

June 26, 2012
Josh McCuistion
ATLANTA, Ga. - In spite of the fact that two of them call the same state home, when Oklahoma's trio of commitments arrived for the Rivals.com Five-Star Challenge they were each relative strangers. Sure D.J. Ward and Stanvon Taylor had spoken on Twitter and Facebook but were largely unknown to each other but held a relationship that already far surpassed what existed between either and fellow commitment Greg Bryant.
As they departed for their respective hometowns each came away much closer to the other.
In the case of the top two players in the state of Oklahoma, they were, unsurprisingly, placed in the same room together and had roughly 48 hours to get more acquainted with one another.
And while Ward and Bryant didn't get a ton of time to catch up, Taylor and Bryant spent a lot of time around each other during the various events through the weekend.
"When we went to Six Flags (on Saturday night) I sat next to (Bryant) and we talked a lot. He is a really cool guy," Taylor said.
More notable than the continuity they began to build over the course of just two days was the similarities in their performances - with each exceeding expectation by various margins.
In the case of Taylor, he was seen by some as something of a late fix with the Southwest squad simply needing a slot wide receiver - a position at which Taylor figures to be enjoying his final year before heading to Norman to become a cornerback.
However, from the outset it was clear that Taylor saw the event as an opportunity to not only change the perception coming in but just the overall opinion some have of his game. Taylor showed off explosive upfield ability and went head to head with some of the nation's elite corners like Jalen Ramsey, Chris Hawkins, and Kendall Fuller among others and more than held his own.
The Sooner coaching staff has offered, and taken his commitment, at cornerback but there is no doubt that some of the skills that helped him make an impressive showing at wide receiver should translate well to defensive back. Taylor created space with great change of direction and quick precise cuts on his routes. That level of footwork and athleticism should enable him to be a difference maker in the secondary.
And the outgoing athlete actually spent some of his down time talking with some of the cornerbacks about their workouts and technique.
"Those guys are good and I just wanted to speak with them about what they do, little things to make myself better," Taylor, the king of the two-point conversion on Sunday, explained.
While Taylor came in to prove doubters wrong, few came in with any doubts about Bryant; his battle was simply a matter of trying to earn his fifth star and cement himself as one of the country's elite talents.
Many came in with little knowledge of Bryant's background as a cornerback and slot receiver early in his career and were unsure of just how well he'd perform out of the backfield. Needless to say Bryant staggered people with his route-running and natural pass-catching ability. Mix that with the quantities that many knew - great feet and impressive open field moves - and it's no surprise that he was a resounding hit both in one-on-ones as well as Sunday's 7-on-7 competition.
Late in the afternoon Sunday Bryant took a pass over the middle stuttered and froze a Northeast defender and burst on for a touchdown causing one of the bigger eruptions all day from the assembled crowd of family members and coaches.
Speaking of coaches, following his work on Saturday some weren't even sure who Ward was but following a really impressive performance on Sunday he had several of the coaches on hand looking for information with questions of 'Who is No. 13?'.
An obviously elated Ward admitted after his work on Sunday that he got into more counter and secondary moves and felt as though the level of competition started to even out a bit for him on day two in Atlanta. One of the better athletes of the weekend at offensive tackle was Maryland's Derwin Gray and the, now, explosive Ward on back-to-back reps flashed a great first step and burst by Gray to best the four-star Terrapins commitment. Showing that he was more than just speed Ward returned to better Brendan Mahon with a powerful move to the inside.
"(Mahon) got outside and got extended so what am I going to do, keep going outside? I just ran through him because I knew he was off balance," Ward said afterward.
Regardless of what was laid in front of the three emerging friends it's clear that each made a strong impression and could be in line to make a move in the Rivals.com rankings.
Touchdown Treadwell
Oklahoma's highest ranked non-committed target at the camp was Crete (Ill.) Monee wide receiver Laquon Treadwell who wasn't always dominant on Saturday but during the 7-on-7 work Sunday showed why he is considered one of the nation's elite receiver targets catching one touchdown after another.
Treadwell is somewhat reminiscent of former elite Texas prep receiver Sloan Thomas in his economy of motion and the resulting appearance of ease in his route-running. Treadwell doesn't seem to be doing anything fast or working overly hard but against the best cornerbacks in the country he made one big play after another.
He isn't the type of player to make highlight reel open field moves but for a bigger guy he does a great job in the open field finding creases and gets north and south very quickly. On the day he had some great battles but there is no doubt that Treadwell is more than worthy of his lofty ranking.
*Kenny Lacy may not have the upper body strength to dominate yet but he doesn't lack for the ability to slide his feet and frequently was able to meet speed rushers on the edge. As he gets stronger his initial punch will become more violent and it'll make his job even easier getting square with off-balance defenders. He'll have to continue to work on his hand use, but Lacy showed why some think his upside is as good as any tackle in the region.
*One player who really impressed with his actions as much, if not more, than his play was Fort Valley (Ga.) Peach Country wide receiver Demarcus Robinson. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound prospect spent most of the first day and a few hours working exclusively at receiver before being moved over to the Southeast secondary during 7-on-7 drills after many of his teammates pulled out citing exhaustion, muscle cramps, and various other ailments. Robinson has a nice frame and is somewhat physically reminiscent of former Sooner Will Peoples, though a more fluid athlete. He says he'll visit Norman before deciding and seems eager to learn more about Oklahoma.
*The Fresno (Calif.) Edison duo of Hatari Byrd and L.J. Moore may have gotten a late start - arriving around midnight Eastern on Saturday morning. But they wasted very little time getting familiar with Byrd impressing a lot of people on Saturday with his range of movement and ability to turn and run with receivers in spite of the frame that screams safety. Meanwhile Moore, a near dead-set cross between corner and safety, showed better feet than one might expect with his frame though at times he struggled with more physical receivers who were able to match his length on the perimeter.
*Finally, three young defensive backs who really made a name for themselves were class of 2014 stars Laurence Jones of Monroe (La.) Neville, Beaumont (Texas) Ozen's Tony Brown, and Jalen Tabor of Washington (D.C.) Friendship Collegiate Academy. Jones is a massive defensive back who looks like a safety but was more than holding his own against elite, and older, receivers - look for him to be among the top handful of defensive backs in the country for his class. Don't expect either Brown or Tabor to be too far behind that with Brown excelling during Saturday's one-on-one events, though he did struggle a bit with the zone schemes the Southwest employed in 7-on-7. Much like Brown, Tabor had a better day Saturday but was very solid on Sunday even making one impressive catch offensively showing off the ball skills and hands that has people talking. ...More...

The Mlimani City is expected to be the venue for the friendship party to be thrown by the Serengeti Breweries tomorrow.
The brewers have invited friends from all corners for the get together party but at a price courtesy of their Bailey brand.
The night full of fun and other entertainment activities is expected to thrill the crowd as confirmed by the SBL's marketing manager for spirits Emillian Rwejuna at a press conference yesterday.
"It will be a friendship night to share delicious moments with special friends," said Rwejuna.
Attendants of the party will also stand chances to win some prizes in the full red carpet event, so says Rwejuna.
Besides interaction with people from various corners of the city and beyond, the brewers have prepared to step up a new benchmark in terms of weekend entertainment in the city.
Benjamin Mariki, the spirits brand manager, said tickets will be available at Shear Illusions Millennium Towers and Shear Illusions Mlimani City at 20,000/- for those who are interested to join the fray.
However, the party organisers have cautioned all friends who are expected to attend the friendship party to drink responsibly.
"The party aims at providing full entertainment, get together in the spirit of true friendship as well as cooperation in the most safest way," said Rwejuna.

Maloja RebeccaM. Skort - Women's $0.00
A skirt you can functionally ride your bike in may seem like an oxymoron to some, but we're pretty keen on the idea. Maloja continues to blend the lines of fashion and function with the Women's RebeccaM Skort. It's a functional mountain biking piece made to take the rigors of the trail.
Okay, so maybe it functions more like a proper pair of mountain bike shorts than a skirt, but make no mistake about the toughness of this skort. The shorts and skirt portion are both constructed from Cordura Stretch fabric. The stretch of the fabric keeps the shorts and the skirt from getting in the way of pedaling. In places where the fabric of shorts tends to pull more, restricting your movement, stretch inserts have been placed to keep you moving freely. The waistband on the RebeccaM comes with an internal waist adjustment system. To achieve the ideal fit, use the tabs on the inside to make the shorts fit exactly where you want them. The added bonus of belt loops helps you achieve a more secure fit if you need it.
The RebeccaM comes with two front pockets and two rear pockets for storage of small ride essentials or cash for a stop at your favorite post-ride watering hole. A single Majola graphic on the back, right pocket, accented with leaves, adds a bit of flair to the shorts portion. Tough enough for the single track and stylish enough for the city, you might find yourself sporting this skort on your morning commute.
The Maloja Women's RebeccaM Skort comes in Pine, Moonless, Hazelnut, and Granite. Sizes run X-Small through X-Large.

Best buy of this year
- Familiarity:I've used it several times
- Fit:True to size
I got these for my girlfriend and this is her review "This pair of skort is fantastic. These are flattering, comfortable and fast drying. The length is perfect - just before the knee. They are multi-functional - I now own 4 pairs in different colours. Not only do I cycle wearing them every day, they are fantastic when travelling. The material is crease-free and easy to keep clean. I am extremely satisfied with these."

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL -- In just his first full season at Florida State, head coach Jimbo Fisher is making recruiting in South Florida a huge priority. That is especially the case at one of the most storied football programs in the state, St. Thomas Aquinas.Former Raider standouts currently on FSU's roster include offensive lineman Andrew Datko and cornerback Lamarcus Joyner. That number will likely double in 2011. Current St. Thomas Aquinas seniors Rashad Greene (WR) and Bobby Hart (OL), both four-star prospects according to Rivals.com, have made verbal commitments to Florida State. This weekend, the standout prospects helped lead STA to a big win over Kingsland (Ga.) Camden County, 42-28, in a nationally televised game. Following the match-up, Warchant.com spoke with the duo about building a St. Thomas Aquinas pipeline and their future at Florida State. ...More...

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Friday, Jan. 4, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- There's a new sheriff in town, and along with his new position comes a new tradition. On Friday night, Sheriff Richard Roundtree is hosting the city's first annual sheriff's inaugural ball, which he plans to make a yearly event.
"It's going to be a good turnout, a lot of people are excited," he said.
They're expecting 300 people at the black tie event, and we just had to ask the sheriff what his attire would be: classic or flashy?
"I think I'm going classic tonight," he laughed.
And it's a valid question since the sheriff has turned heads before, rolling up to make his announcement to run for sheriff in a stretch limo and wearing a baby blue suit for his swearing in.
Willie Davis Jr. has lived in Augusta more than 30 years, and he says, "I think he's going to make a really great sheriff, but right now, I think he really needs to back up and think a little bit before he starts doing things."
Some in the community argue the pricey tickets for the inaugural ball alienate the people who put him in office.
"The average person, or citizen, that I know, can't afford $150 or $250 ticket," Davis said.
Roundtree responded, saying, "We're not going to alienate anyone at all. 49,000 people put me in office, and you're not going to be able to accommodate everybody at every event."
He says the gala is just one event that comes with a price tag, but he plans to have several others throughout the year for free.
"Like when I did my swearing in, you know, we had over 500 people come there for a free luncheon," he pointed out.
"That was good enough," Davis said. "All the citizens could afford to come there and eat and everything, rather than have this private party type thing. It just makes him look real bad and stuff."
But others say it makes sense to have different events to cater to different groups.
"You can imagine a six-figure person coming into the hood for a barbecue? Come on, let's keep it real," said Bundy Amos.
"I think he gonna be a great sheriff, but Mr. Roundtree needs to know who put him in office," Davis said.

A new study points to a "stubborn gender inequality" affecting females in U.S. media. "The Status of Women in the U.S. Media 2013" study, released in March by the Women's Media Center (WMC), found that women are seen less often than men on Sunday morning news shows and are often relegated to write "pink topics" such as food
and family stories. The overall employment of women in television newsrooms "remains flat," according to the study. It also shows that "story framing and descriptions of women still too often fall into lazy stereotypes."
"A gaping divide" in gender parity exists at both traditional and newer news sites. Male bylines outnumber female bylines by two-thirds "even in coverage of issues of great importance to women," notes the WMC report. Continue Reading →

The address where two people were found dead following the Waldo Canyon Fire had no associated phone numbers registered for emergency notifications, according to the El Paso and Teller County 911 authority.
The bodies of William Everett, 74, and Barbara Everett, 73 were found in the remains of the home at 2910 Rossmere Street. According to El Paso and Teller County 911, that address was not associated with any phone numbers registered for emergency notifications.
Colorado Springs Police spokesperson Barbara Miller says evidence found after the fire shows it appears the couple was preparing to evacuate. Things had been loaded into a car and they had told a family member by phone they were preparing to evacuate.
Tuesday morning, flowers were left outside the home.
Approximately 118,000 emergency notifications were made during the week following June 23. At the peak, about 32,000 people were evacuated.
Spokesperson Ben Bills says approximately 20,000 of the notifications were never completed. They aren't sure yet where things went wrong.
"It went out to our bank or phone line that we make those calls from," he said, "but somewhere from the phone lines they - for lack of of a better word - were not made."
In this system, more than one phone can be registered for each person or address.
The El Paso and Teller County system is voice activated, meaning the message won't begin to play until it hears a voice on the other end of the emergency notification call. When it does, the subscriber is asked to press a key to hear the message play. After the message, the system also offers an opportunity to play the message again.
If the buttons are not pressed because a voicemail system answered the call, the emergency notification system waits 7 seconds to get around the entire voicemail greeting before leaving a message.
In most cases home phones and land-lines are already connected to the system, but officials said you may want to double check with your phone provider.
A total of 346 homes were destroyed by the Waldo Canyon Fire. William and Barbara Everett were the only reported deaths.
