Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 535772
Internet Explorer (IE) problem with Advanced Settings
Last modified: 2013-08-31 07:04:17 EDT
On the monitoring tab of a resource when a user clicks on "Advanced Settings " link to change the time interval to view the displayed metrics, nothing happens. Pop-up blocker is disabled.
Issue Tracker ticket # 343060
Also fails in rev5152 on IE8
Click on the metric in the chart. At the bottom of the screen is the Advanced Settings (Display Range Settings). It is working from this location.
This bug was previously known as http://jira.rhq-project.org/browse/RHQ-2433
Temporarily adding the keyword "SubBug" so we can be sure we have accounted for all the bugs.

closing per gwt effort
This issue seems to keep getting reported/hit by customers. With such a simple fix, it might be worth getting the fix committed in lieu of the GWT effort in RHQ 4 and the workaround proposed in Comment 2.
The 'onclick' event for the "Advanced Settings..." link is calling the JavaScript window.open() method with an invalid 'strWindowName' parameter.
Advanced Settings...
Although spaces in the window name value are tolerated in many web browsers, some browsers will fail to execute the window.open() method due to the value of "Metric Display Range Settings".
The window name value must be a valid identifier and therefore can not contain spaces in its name:

Tina Fey keen to get Mean Girls: The Musical underway in 2013
The 30 Rock creator and star wrote the screenplay for the popular 2004 teen comedy, which was partly based on Rosalind Wiseman's non-fiction work Queen Bees and Wannabes, and now she is eager to see the film make its transition to the stage.
Fey has been working on a musical adaptation with her composer husband Jeff Richmond for several months and she wants to get the ball rolling on its production sooner rather than later – as soon as she can convince Paramount film bosses to sign on the dotted line.
Addressing the status of the musical project, Fey tells E! News, "We want to, I'd love to. I'm trying to develop it with my husband, who does all the music for 30 Rock, and I think Paramount's on board."

The boys really had their work cut out for them though.They learned and performed three men's choir pieces. Georgia is famous for its polyphonic music, which has been included on UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage list.

One of the songs they sang was "Chakrulo," an old Georgian folk song with origins in Kakheti, Georgia, one of the most famous examples of Georgian polyphony. I recorded a video, but the audio is pretty bad on my camera (sorry about that!).
Who really stole the show though was the youth folk dance group that followed. They were INCREDIBLE! I didn't realize they were a world-famous, traveling dance group until afterward, though I definitely wasn't surprised. They go by "Los Niños Virtuosos de Cáucaso" in Spanish and "The Little Virtuosos" in English and the dancers are between the ages of 7 and 13.

National Policy Reports
KIDS COUNT, a project of the Annie E. Casey Foundation, is a national and state-by-state effort to track the well-being of children in the United States. By providing high-quality data and trend analysis, KIDS COUNT seeks to enrich local, state and national discussions on ways to secure better futures for all children and to raise the visibility of childrens issues through a nonpartisan, evidence-based lens. The following are the most recent national policy reports produced by the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
A Shared Sentence
The Devastating Toll of Parental Incarceration on Kids, Families and Communities
More than 5 million U.S. children have had a parent in jail or prison at some point in their lives. The incarceration of a parent can have as much impact on a childs well-being as abuse or domestic violence. But while states spend heavily on corrections, few resources exist to support those left behind. A Shared Sentence offers commonsense proposals to address the increased poverty and stress that children of incarcerated parents experience.
Every Kids Needs a Family
Giving Children in the Child Welfare System the Best Chance for Success
This KIDS COUNT policy report highlights state data that point to the urgent need to ensure, through sound policies and proven practices, that everything possible is being done to find loving, nurturing and supported families to children in foster care. The report also highlights the promising ways that state and local government leaders as well as policymakers, judges and private providers can work together as they strive to help these 57,000 children who are living in group placements and overall, the more than 400,000 children in the care of child welfare systems.
Every Kid Needs a Family recommends how communities can widen the array of services available to help parents and children under stress within their own homes, so that children have a better chance of reuniting with their birth families and retaining bonds important to their development. And it shows ways in which residential treatment a vital option for the small percentage of young people who cannot safely live in any family during treatment can help those young people return to families more quickly and prepare them to thrive there.
Data Snapshot: Measuring Access to Opportunity
This KIDS COUNT data snapshot illustrates how outdated methods measuring poverty in the United States are giving an inaccurate picture of how families are really faring and what public programs are actually working. The brief introduces the more accurate Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) and shows how it shows lower state poverty rates.

Creating Opportunities for Families. A Two-Generation Approach
Breaking cycles of poverty requires strategies that address two generations at once and focus on education, public programs and local solutions, according to a new KIDS COUNT report, Creating Opportunities for Families: A Two-Generation Approach.
Kids Count Data Book - 2014The annual KIDS COUNT DATA BOOK (italics) shows South Carolina remains 45th in the nation in child well-being. While South Carolina children are showing progress in some areas, the progress is not significant enough for South Carolina's children to move out of the bottom 10 percent of the country.
Kids Count Data Book, 2014 - PDF
Race for Results
In this first-time index and new KIDS COUNT® policy report, Race for Results: Building a Path to Opportunity for All Children, South Carolina trails national levels. This new compilation shows South Carolina below national figures for its three largest racial and ethnic groups on how children are progressing on key milestones.
Race for Results Data for South Carolina
Early Reading Proficiency in the United States
In this KIDS COUNT® data snapshot, the Annie E. Casey Foundation finds that 80 percent of lower-income fourth graders and 66 percent of all kids are not reading proficiently - a key predictor of a students future educational and economic success. If this trend continues, the country will not have enough skilled workers for an increasingly competitive global economy by the end of this decade.
Early Reading Proficiency in the United States finds that two-thirds of all children are not meeting an important benchmark: reading at grade level at the start of fourth grade. Of even greater concern is that the gap between students from higher- and lower-income families is growing wider, with 17 percent improvement seen among the former group compared to only a 6 percent improvement among their lower-income peers.
Early Reading Proficiency in the U.S. - PDF
First Eight Years
South Carolinas children are vulnerable and a new policy report makes recommendations to help ensure future success. The Annie E. Casey Foundations policy report, The First Eight Years: Giving Kids a Foundation for Lifetime Success, sounds the alarm that the nation is failing to invest enough in a childs early years. For South Carolina, the warnings are especially relevant. Decades of brain and child development research shows that children who enter kindergarten with below-average language and cognition ability need effective practices and supportive measures to develop their social, emotional and learning skills. The report makes the correlation between poverty and age-appropriate cognitive ability.
Youth Incarceration
In this KIDS COUNT data snapshot, the Casey Foundation finds that the rate of young people locked up because they were in trouble with the law dropped more than 40 percent over a 15-year period, with no decrease in public safety. The snapshot indicates that the number of young people in correctional facilities on a single day fell to 70,792 in 2010, from a high of 107,637 in 1995. The publication also recommends ways to continue reducing reliance on incarceration and improve the odds for young people involved in the juvenile justice system.Keeping pace with the national downward trend, S.C. has been successful in reducing youth incarcerations over the past decade.
Reducing Youth Incarceration - PDF
Kinship Families
Kinship Care is when grandparents, other relatives and close family members have stepped forward to raise children whose parents can no longer care for them. This practice helps protect children and maintains strong family, community and cultural connections. When children cannot remain safely with their parents, other family and friends can provide a sense of security, positive identity and belonging. In South Carolina, the Department of Social Services as in other states, strongly recommends the use of Kinship Care. Today, more than one in four children in foster care are living with relatives rather than stranger foster care. This report explores the increased number of children living with extended family and close friends with recent data and recommendations on how to support kinship families.
High Poverty Communities
In February 2012 the Annie E. Casey Foundation released a data snapshot on children living in high-poverty communities. The report discusses how living in concentrated poverty is harmful for children, of concentrated poverty is defined and how concentrated poverty is on the rise. In South Carolina there are 133,000 children living in concentrated poverty. There has been a growth of more than 71,000 children living in concentrated poverty since 2000. This is an increase of 115 percent.

Skip to comments.CA: Romer reveals donors - Building, publishing firms provided bulk of donations
Posted on 07/13/2005 9:07:42 AM PDT by NormsRevenge
The nonprofit organization Superintendent Roy Romer set up to defend Los Angeles Unified's image against political attacks relied almost entirely on contributions from construction firms, textbook publishers and other school contractors, records released Tuesday showed.
Friends of L.A. Schools Inc., which Romer formed in February just days after Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger announced his support for plans to break up the district, received single donations of $10,000 from investment bank Goldman Sachs, DMJM building consultants, Turner Construction and publishers Harcourt Inc. and Pearson Education - all of which have contracts totaling millions of dollars with the school district.
Romer defended the more than $146,000 in total donations, which he sought personally, saying his fundraising never influenced LAUSD business.
"I have absolutely no issue of ethics in doing what I'm doing here. I'm clearly representing the district here and I have no hesitancy in going to people for money," Romer said after releasing the list. "I'm not going to skinny down in some hole like I did something wrong."
Still, the list raised questions among a number of political observers.
"It's an ethical question," said Bob Stern, president of the nonpartisan Center for Governmental Studies.
"The question is why are these companies giving? They're giving because they want to curry favor from the school district and by giving money to this fund they will gain an advantage. Decisions are supposed to be based on the merits, not on who's giving to Roy Romer's fund. The perception is that you have to give if you want to receive benefits from the school district - that money has an impact."
Romer said he created the nonprofit to counter "brutal" attacks. In February, mayoral candidate Bob Hertzberg made reform of the LAUSD a major issue in the campaign by calling for breaking up the nation's second-largest school district. Schwarzenegger backed his call and other major candidates proposed their own reform plans, including the city's new mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa, who called for direct authority to name school board members.
Romer, the former governor of Colorado and erstwhile head of the Democratic National Committee, said his fundraising was no different than what the governor and mayoral candidates do to get money for their campaigns and their own causes.
"Don't put a standard on a school superintendent that you don't put on everybody else," he said.
Romer does not get involved in awarding contracts, said special assistant to the superintendent Glenn Gritzner.
Romer's office will release by the end of the week a detailed account of the fund expenditures, but the money was spent on the district's State of the Schools address in May and related community forums to get its accomplishments out to the public, Gritzner said.
"There's no correlation between the people who do business with us and whether or not they contribute. What about looking at how many people do business with us that don't contribute," Gritzner said. "It's a perfectly legitimate and understandable effort to communicate more effectively, more often, with a wider group of people."
Kathay Feng, executive director of California Common Cause, said Romer's fund and its activities raise serious ethical and legal questions and should probably be investigated or audited by an outside authority, although she was not certain whether county or state officials would have jurisdiction.
Such organizations are not allowed to advocate for or against candidates, she noted. And they are only allowed to spend 20 percent of their time and resources on issue advocacy.
Because Romer's group was formed during a mayoral campaign, and apparently in response to issues raised by one of the candidates - and at a time when there was no specific legislation or ballot measure proposed - the group stepped into a "gray area" between advocating for issues and advocating for and against candidates, she said.
"As a 501(c)3 (an IRS-designated charitable organization), they're speaking to an issue. Where there is no initiative or something you can point to that is not related to a candidate's race, it makes the 501(c)3's advocacy much more questionable," she said.
"The timing of the creation of the 501(c)3 was at the very moment when we were engaged in a mayoral race, again where no initiative was on the ballot and this was not an issue being discussed outside of the mayoral race, (which) really puts into question whether or not this 501(c)3 legitimately advocated on these issues."
One question that an investigation should examine, she said, is how much of the organization's time and resources were spent on promoting an issue, and whether the group has a life outside of that issue. In other words, did the group cease its activities after the mayoral campaign ended? The law says such groups can only spend 20 percent of their resources on advocacy, she said.
"The problem of somebody who is holding a public service office soliciting money from people who are vendors to that office - that raises serious questions about the ethics of the relationship between the officeholder, Roy Romer, and the vendors," Feng said. "It raises serious concerns for us that there is pay-to-play politics involved."
Hertzberg, who now heads Villaraigosa's transition team, called for full disclosure of the donors.
In a letter to Romer sent late Monday, Hertzberg urged him to "follow the inspired lead of our new mayor of Los Angeles, who set the high ethical standard by requiring that contributions made to the L.A.'s BEST after-school program during his inaugural celebration be made public, despite no specific statutory obligation to do so."
Nonprofits are not required to disclose the names of donors.
"We really need to examine this from a public-policy point of view. Should a superintendent who has power over contracts raise money in this way? These are important questions given the ethical issues that we've been facing in Los Angeles government," Hertzberg said.
Ed Burke, chief of staff for school board member Jon Lauritzen, said the only problem they have with Romer's nonprofit is they were not "in on it in the beginning." Otherwise, they laud Romer's abilities to raise funds for a district that needs it.
"It's not like these companies are going to get something from him because they're already involved with the district. Most of those people believe in what the district is doing and they are people who tend to be friends. It's the board who awards the contract, not the superintendent. We think Romer's strongest point is the fact that he's able to raise funds and do this for the district. He's a good defender and cheerleader for the district."

During the past 50 years, animal agriculture has gone through a seismic shift in the United States. Family farms and red barns have been replaced by industrialized facilities controlled by large corporations that rely on concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs). In this system, cavernous warehouses crowded with thousands—even tens of thousands—of animals form the equivalent of an agricultural assembly line.

Vietnamese woman says she had 18 abortions in bid to conceive son
29 May 2015
Vietnamese woman says she had 18 abortions in bid to conceive son - © Frank Leonhardt, dpa
Hanoi (dpa) - The story of a Vietnamese woman who says she had 18 abortions in her unsuccessful quest for a son provoked sympathy among internet users Friday on sex-selection practices that officials say have reached an alarming level.
In a TV appearance this week with her face concealed, she described how after giving birth to four daughters, her husband's disappointment and her depression led her to repeatedly terminate pregnancies when the foetus was female. "I was very frustrated and wanted to commit suicide, to leave everything behind," the woman said. "My husband still goes out to find someone who can give birth a son for him."
Social media erupted with shock after the woman's story was aired. "How sad for this woman that she did not dare to oppose such a dated thought," one reader wrote on the Kenh14.vn news site.
Gender-based abortion, a long-recognized phenomenon in India and China, has soared in recent years in Vietnam. A recent survey showed that in some of Vietnam's rural provinces, the imbalance had reached 150 boys for every 100 girls. This contributed to national imbalance of 120 boys born for every 100 girls - up from a 111/100 ratio in 2011.
At the turn of the century, the gender birth ratio was close to the accepted international average of 104 boys to 100 girls. Easier access to clinics that can determine foetal sex early on and terminate pregnancies have contributed the growing imbalance. Authorities have tried to address the imbalance by forbidding clinicians from revealing whether it will be a boy or a girl. This rarely works in practice, as doctors use the euphemism "bird" for boy and "butterfly" for girl.

About Me
MY name is Collin and I am a model/ photographer/ writer from Camden Town, London, now living in Bondi Beach, Australia.
First things first: I am aware that any model on this site should be on guard for creepy dudes looking to mask purvy-ness behind faux arty-ness. I am aware of this because my wife and creative partner is also a model on this site, who shoots nudes and has to read between the lines for every photo-shoot she is offered. It's a shame, but its reality, and I would recommend the same discretion to anyone using these sites as I do to her. I.e. meet everyone you might consider working with in advance (even if just by Skype meeting) and discuss creative ideas to be sure it's within your comfort zone. Chaperones, although sometimes an impediment to the creative process, should always be welcomed; even if it's a girlfriend coming along for moral support. Safety first!
Our project: That said Matilda and I are working in a creative new project bridging my past experience with scenic, artistic photography and her successes in portrait, fashion and artistic nude modeling. Our goal is compile a body of brilliant, intriguing and positive work for our portfolio, to later be used for both commercial purposes and the compilation of an artistic photography book.
About me: While studying philosophy and history in Brittan, my hobby of photography became an expression of many of the most positive ideas learned from my studies. I began by applying photos from my travels around the world to these concepts and have produced a book called 'The Unnatural World', published by The Globe & Compass Press, on artistic scenic photography and aesthetic philosophy. The images in this work were selected for their power to make us question the creation and appreciation of beauty by humans around the world, at different times in history, up to the modern era. This book was a critical reflection on art, culture and nature, which produced some fantastic images, inspired by ideal environments, created by diverse cultures.
Our work: My new venture is a unique photo project called Eudaimonia Photography. Its focus is ideal atmospheric scenes of beauty and happiness, using subjects who represent a broad spectrum of human beauty. It is inspired by the Ancient Greek concept of Eudaimonia, meaning the highest human flourishing, or what really is 'good' and how it is to be achieved. Like aesthetics, this requires one to explore the nature of art, beauty, taste but also the essence of happiness and its perils.
Inspiration: This is our own unique project which we are building from little more than creative ideas, largely because we are disappointed in the quality and expression in artistic photography being produced at the moment. It seems that most pictures of people these days fall into clear and slightly boring categories like 'glamour', 'fashion' and 'porn'. We believe the camera and model are far more expressive and deserve more from artists than simple products to sell in the media market. To this end we are looking for interesting and creative models who can share our vision, who would like to help us produce something beautiful.
The show: Forums for our work are galleries, photography competitions and possibly another book, but we also hope for it to lead to many more lucrative opportunities in the future, for both us and the models we choose to promote.
You: If this sounds like a project you may be interested to be involved with, let us know by message and we can arrange an opportunity to look through your portfolio and discuss the future with you.

REED SORENSON (No. 41 Target Dodge Charger)
COMMENT ON THE DAYTONA TEST SO FAR "We blew a motor and it was a good one, too. It was a new motor they built over the winter, and it was a lot better, but it blew up. That's what tests are for. They came and got it this morning and took it back to see if they could find out what happened to it and get it fixed for the Daytona 500."
ARE BOTH CHARGERS CLOSE? "We switched motors in them yesterday before the good motor blew up and they ran about the same, so we feel like the cars are pretty close. If anything happens to one of them the other one will be just as good."
WHAT DO YOU TRY TO ACCOMPLISH AT THIS TEST? "We ran a decent time yesterday, and we were pretty far off on the speedway stuff last year. We were just trying to come down here expecting to get better. We're not trying to challenge for a pole or anything. We just wanted to get better and we are. The new motor was a lot better and the new Dodge nose helped out a little bit. We just wanted to put ourselves on the other side of the field. We feel like we're going to have a little bit better shot this year."
IS THERE A VETERAN DRIVER IN THE GARAGE YOU COULD GO TO FOR ADVICE? "I still consider Casey Mears a good friend of mine and any time I need to talk about something I can talk to him. I could go to Jimmie Johnson. A driver has to learn most of the stuff out there on his own. You can sit down and talk about this stuff all you want, but when you go out on the track a lot of stuff changes. I feel like I learned a lot of stuff last year, and I feel like I'm going into this year as a smarter driver and a better driver. I'm going to try not to make as many mistakes and see if we can't come out a little better."
DO YOU LIKE SUPERSPEEDWAY RACING? "It's fun. It's pretty stressful at times. The body shop guys have done a great job on our bodies. We've just been off a little bit on motors. The motor guys have been working really hard all winter to make up for that. They've done a great job and if they can give us something like they gave us here for the test and we can make all 500 miles it will be great."
HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK YOU'VE IMPROVED FROM LAST YEAR? "We've got so many races through the season you've just got to stay on track with what you're doing and not worry about what anybody else is doing. As soon as you do that you get off schedule of what your goals are. We've set our goals for this year, and we're going to try to points race this year and make sure we don't do anything to make ourselves fall out of any races. We're going to try to be a top 15 or top 10 car every weekend and that's all we can do."
IS MAKING THE CHASE A GOAL THIS SEASON? "We're going to points race. Wherever that puts us we can talk about it from there. We'd like to win a race, get a pole and we're going to points race. How well we run is where we'll be in the points."
WHEN DID YOU TURN IT AROUND LAST SEASON? "We had some good races. Then we had a month when we couldn't finish a race. We were passing people in points and then we went the other way. That's what we've got to make sure doesn't happen this year. When we gain momentum, we've got to make sure we don't get off track. The team stayed together, and Jimmy (Elledge) and I worked well together last year. I think now we've got a better understanding of what kind of cars we need to bring to the track. I think we can work a lot better together planning on races coming up. I think our communication is just fine."
WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE LIKE WITH JUAN PABLO MONTOYA AS A TEAMMATE? "I haven't really hung out with him too much. He raced a lot at the end of last season and he's a good guy to hang out with. I think he'll be a good teammate."
DO YOU THINK CHIP GANASSI WILL EXPECT MORE OUT OF YOU THIS SEASON? "He expects more out of everybody and we expect more out of him as well. We expect more out of each other. We don't want to be a bunch of losers just hanging out having a good time. We want to be winners. We're going to feed off each other. He pushes us, and we're going to push him so we can get better as a team. It's hard to be a car owner in two different series. His Indy cars didn't run good two years ago and he turned that program around and got them back up front winning races. He's open for whatever it takes to get our cars better and keep them running up front. He's been really good making sure we've got everything we need to win races. If we can keep doing that we'll be all right."
LOOKING BACK WHAT WAS YOUR BIGGEST HURDLE TO OVERCOME AS A ROOKIE? "Starting out with a new team and going to some tracks I hadn't been to was big. I think we have a little better understanding of what we need this season."
WILL THE COT PRESENT A MAJOR CHALLENGE THIS SEASON? "It will. What it boils down to it'll be a huge part of who runs well in the points. Who has the best development of those cars over the winter will be in the drivers' seat. Hopefully we'll be up to par with that stuff, but we won't know until we get there. I tested one last year at Bristol and Nashville. At Bristol I couldn't tell a lot of difference. It was just slower. At Nashville it was tight and didn't turn very good."
PERSONALLY WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO SATISFY YOU THIS SEASON? "I don't know what they're going to do with The Chase. I've heard they're expanding it a little bit. The 41 team would like to be the one to break that four-year winless streak. We'd like to get one win at least and a pole. One each would be nice. We want to be competitive every weekend. We don't have to go out and set the world on fire. We just want to be competitive. If we're not in the top five we want to be in the top 10. If we can do that we'll be up there in the points, and that's our goal.. We want to be consistent, win a race and get a pole. I think we can do that. I think there will be times during the year we don't run as well as we need to, but I think at times we'll be good and consistent. If we can come out of those tracks where we didn't run well last season with a decent finish then we can capitalize on some of the places we ran well last season and get a win there."
WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU CAN WIN? "I felt like last year at Dover we had a top three car and ran out of gas running fourth with a lap to go. If we can go back there and get that car as good as it was we'll definitely have a shot at a place like that. If we get our car right on a mile and a half track, I think we'd have a shot at any of those."

Legal, Actual and Desirable Independence: A Case Study of the Bank of Israel
This paper documents the evolution of the legal independence of the Bank of Israel since its creation in 1954 to present times, provides an international comparison, and assesses the changes in the actual independence of the Bank on a yearly basis following the 1985 stabilization of inflation. The data developed in the paper makes it possible to compare the evolution of actual and of legal independence after the 1985 stabilization and to compare the legal independence of the bank with that of other countries at different points in time. The paper also evaluates the level of legal independence embedded in the Levin's committee recommendations for reform of the Bank of Israel law. The paper shows that various institutional changes have induced, since 1985, substantial changes in the actual independence of the bank without any legislative change. The paper also identifies domestic and international factors that stimulated those changes and evaluates the desirable level of independence for the future.

Allowing others the dignity of their experience
When we relinquish control, we give others the dignity of their own experience. That means that we can see the divine order in what and who they are in this time and space.
We can apply this idea to so many situations. If we are single and have been heartbroken, we can release the other person toward whatever path they are meant to go.
If we are in a relationship, we can stop being the boss of our partner! What this can look like is this:
We get a strong urge to fix or control our partner because they are "messing up." One time, a friend of mine told me it was excruciating to watch her husband chopping peppers because of the way that he cut them. She had a good chuckle at herself, because it really didn't matter; yet her ego was screaming to correct him.
Often we interfere when we ought to be minding our own business!
When I was accepted as one of twelve incoming students to my graduate program, I was very excited but needed some money to make it happen. I pursued one of only two fellowships and was awarded it. This award made it possible for me to pull up stakes in California and move to Chicago for school. As I later saw, I was neither the most ambitious nor the most talented student in my cohort.
Had I not received the fellowship, I likely would never have moved to Chicago and gone to that particular graduate school. It was in Chicago that I found meditation, which changed my life from one run by fear and selfishness to a life of serving others and pursuing truth. I started my search for happiness in love there and it was also in Chicago where I met my husband!
So while there were others in my cohort that seemed more deserving, the bigger picture was, I was meant to be in Chicago. It was there that my life changed in order for me to help people like you change their lives! Isn't that amazing?!
Remembering this story, I can have compassion for people who are performing less than I think that they "should" because I rest in the knowledge that there is a bigger order at play and I do not know it. This does not mean that I have to get entangled with them or the games or drama that might be involved with them. It means I can have compassion for them from a distance!
Your Assignment:
Look for opportunities to allow others the dignity of their own experience. Where is your need for control thwarting the higher order? Where can you allow for something that you would do differently but may very well be in divine order?

So, *Chuck, according to your logic, Cory will have to go without food or drinks during his trip.
Cory, it all depends on what you like. I'm a big fan of Ghost Street for the Sichuan restaurants and overall ambiance. NLGX is another great traditional neighborhood with loads of great restaurants: both domestic and foreign.
In terms of nightlife, Glen is great if you're a fan of whiskey, while Q Bar has a decent crowd and excellent cocktails. Both are in Sanlitun South.
If you dig live music with your drinks, check out Yugong Yishan, Club Obiwan, MAO Live House or D-22.
While I haven't been, Apothecary is a new bar that's been getting props for it's old-timey drinks. Same goes for Lugar (Worker's Stadium).
I dislike Houhai due to it's tout culture. I hate being grabbed by the arm and bothered by bar staff and people trying to sell me stuff.
Cory said, "I'm looking for some good restaurants and places to go for drinks."
Nothing in that statement indicated that he wasn't going to see "glorious places full of their cultures and traditions."
Furthermore, why couldn't you do both? What's wrong with going to the Great Wall, Summer Palace and spending a day strolling throughout this harmonious city and then proceeding to enjoy a nice meal accompanied with a few drinks?
You're projecting animosity.
You didn't give any advice. You just made the assumption that Cory wasn't planning on checking out cultural things and instead was coming to Beijing to party.
Put it this way:
I'm going to Toyko in early-2010. While I'm going to sightsee during the day, I'd still like to know where to grab a decent meal and have a few drinks at night.
That was the point of Cory's question, which you missed entirely.
Thanks, *Chuck.
At Kkg: On and off since Jul 2006.

Adhoi (Bhuj), July 4: The boardroom looks plush. The huge oblong table has rows of blue executive chairs lined up on both sides. A cluster of overhead lamps glows blue, orange and green on either end of the table.
The only thing incongruous is that this is a gram panchayat.
The devastation over, earthquake-hit Bhuj is now at the receiving end of bounty. First the Narmada, which changed its course and wandered into the district during the quake, brought much-needed water into parts of the dry, arid district. The Asian Development Bank has sanctioned Rs 4,000 crore for the project.
And now, the landscape of Bhuj is changing.
It is yet to rise fully from its ruins. Houses lie flattened along the highway, in the state they were at the time of the quake. But interior Bhuj has become swank, with model villages dotting the countryside, thanks to the generosity of corporates, rich sons of the soil and neighbouring governments.
One model village is at Adhoi, built by the Maharashtra government. The state may be bankrupt it posted a fiscal deficit of Rs 9,000 crore this year but the Chief Ministers Relief Fund, into which money was poured in by rich Gujaratis, has spent Rs 79 crore to build the new village and a smaller one at Vondh and on relief work.
But Adhoi is hardly a village its a spanking little town, with amenities many a suburb doesnt have. Its a 285-acre settlement of 2,000 cheerful-looking homes two-room concrete houses of 510 square feet each, painted a bright shade of pink, with separate toilets for each house. Sintex tanks standing atop the houses supply the water. But thats only the tip of the iceberg.
Adhoi was an affluent village, many of Mumbais leading businessmen having their roots there, but the new village is state-of-the-art.
Theres the gram panchayat with the boardroom, a school with sound boxes in its rooms and a hospital with an ICU. There are provisions for a library, a balwadi, two small community halls, a large one and a mahila kendra. We may even build a swimming pool, says Vinayakrao Patil of NGO Unique Service Trust, the man behind the rehabilitation project, and adds he is not joking.
The hospital has 30 beds, including a 10-bed ICU. The entrance is protected by Lord Ganesha, enshrined in a plastic miniature temple.
Theres an OT, a room for delivery, and the 10 beds of the maternity ward have cradles attached to them. The only thing to be decided is who will run the hospital doctors from the Gujarat government service or private practitioners.
The school is cosier. Its a primary school, with classes till standard VII, but it would give many high-end city schools competition. Apart from well-furnished classrooms, theres a recreation room for the students and a childrens room, though in both there is a preponderance of cutesy posters. As the old Rafi number Yeh Bharat Desh Hai Mera pours out from the hall, the corridors and the classrooms, one wonders what so many baby-love posters are doing in the nursery and concludes that they have created the atmosphere.
Theres a garden in the village with a memorial in honour of the 346 people who died. Its floor is woven with Korean grass.
Old Adhoi, a prosperous village with many two-storey and three-storey houses where 3,000 families lived, lies stretched like a heap of rubble just half-a-kilometre away. Villagers are frightened to return to their homes they think their houses are haunted by the dead. They stay in the shelters near the village built for the interim period.
They will move into the new homes in a weeks time, says Patil, who has done rehabilitation work in Latur after the quake and in Orissa following the cyclone. The residents will have to be given a little training, says Patil, so that they can use the facilities properly.
The villagers are not very sure about how they will fare in this totally new environment. They are a little dazzled at the moment. A teacher at the old school, who will also be teaching at the new school, says she is happy with the way things have turned out, but says not all her neighbours are comfortable. Some are unhappy with the position of the houses allotted, some basically with change.
The sceptics feel they may be selling the houses once two years the period during which they cant sell their homes elapse.
Along with Adhoi, the Maharashtra government has rebuilt another village at Vondh, setting up 868 houses. The chief ministers Gujarat relief fund was earmarked only for the earthquake victims not for rehabilitation of the riot victims.
The Maharashtra government is not the only one. Corporate houses like HLL and Reliance have adopted villages, too, in Bhuj. The Malayala Manorama group has set up a small settlement.

Committee Opinion Number 642, October 2015
(Replaces Committee Opinion Number 450, December 2009)
ABSTRACT: Unintended pregnancy persists as a major public health problem in the United States. Although lowering unintended pregnancy rates requires multiple approaches, individual obstetrician–gynecologists may contribute by increasing access to contraceptive implants and intrauterine devices. Obstetrician–gynecologists should encourage consideration of implants and intrauterine devices for all appropriate candidates, including nulliparous women and adolescents. Obstetrician–gynecologists should adopt best practices for long-acting reversible contraception insertion. Obstetrician–gynecologis...
Committee Opinion Number 666, June 2016
ABSTRACT: In the weeks after birth, postpartum care often is fragmented among maternal and pediatric health care providers, and communication between inpatient and outpatient settings is inconsistent. To optimize postpartum care, anticipatory guidance should begin during pregnancy. During antenatal care, it is recommended that the patient and her obstetrician–gynecologist or other obstetric care provider formulate a postpartum care plan and identify the health care professionals who will comprise the postpartum care team for the woman and her infant. Ideally, during the postpartum period, a s...
Committee Opinion Number 590, March 2014
(Reaffirmed 2016. Replaces Committee Opinion Number 487, April 2011)
ABSTRACT: Patient care emergencies may occur at any time in any setting, particularly the inpatient setting. It is important that obstetrician–gynecologists prepare themselves by assessing potential emergencies, establishing early warning systems, designating specialized first responders, conducting emergency drills, and debriefing staff after actual events to identify strengths and opportunities for improvement. Having such systems in place may reduce or prevent the severity of medical emergencies.
Committee Opinion Number 649, December 2015
(Replaces Committee Opinion Number 317, October 2005)
ABSTRACT: Projections suggest that people of color will represent most of the U.S. population by 2050, and yet significant racial and ethnic disparities persist in women's health and health care. Although socioeconomic status accounts for some of these disparities, factors at the patient, practitioner, and health care system levels contribute to existing and evolving disparities in women's health outcomes. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists is committed to the elimination of racial and ethnic disparities in the health and health care of women and encourages obstetrician–g...
Committee Opinion Number 535, August 2012
ABSTRACT: Increasing numbers of women and adolescent females are incarcerated each year in the United States and they represent an increasing proportion of inmates in the U.S. correctional system. Incarcerated women and adolescent females often come from disadvantaged environments and have high rates of chronic illness, substance abuse, and undetected health problems. Most of these females are of reproductive age and are at high risk of unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Understanding the needs of incarcerated women and adol...

Dallas Mavericks center Nerlens Noel has decided to wait a year to try to cash in as a free agent.
Two people with knowledge of the agreement said Saturday that Noel accepted a $4.1 million qualifying offer for one year, essentially betting on himself that he can get something closer to a max contract as an unrestricted free agent next summer.
Noel's decision as a restricted free agent means he can't sign a long-term deal until after the upcoming season, one of the people told The Associated Press. Both spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the contract is pending NBA approval.
The Mavericks acquired the 23-year-old Noel at the trade deadline last season...

Kruithof Anouk . Happy Birthday to You LANG ZAL ZE LEVEN
Happy birthday to you is an unconventional publication about a social project by Anouk Kruithof, which she undertook during her stay at the artistic residence 'Het Vijfde Seizoen' at the Altrecht psychiatric unit in Den Dolder in 2011. Kruithof interviewed 10 patients about their birthday wishes and then celebrated it with and for them according to these wishes. 'One of them wanted a big party with live performances and herring on toast with fresh orange juice for all guests, the next wanted to go to Utrecht to smoke a birthday joint.' Anouk asked each patient for their favourite colour, and they all got a cake adorned with their portrait photograph. Anouk did this deliberately, because cutting and eating 'your own face' always puts people as ease. The publication consists of both quotes from the interviews as well as photos of hand-made 3D sets in which the documentary photographs of the birthdays are displayed as small exhibitions. The publication offers a chronological overview of how the 10 birthdays were celebrated and of the honest collaboration with people with a psychiatric condition/
In 2012 Anouk Kruithof won the Young Photographer Infinity Award from the International Center of Photography New York


text: I currently have an HTC EVO, which I am happy with, but for some reason I am drawn to these Samsung phones. I am concerned with a few things, like not having an LED flash, but I am curious about how you folks feel about the phone and if anyone has converted from an EVO. My 30 days is about over and I am exploring all options before I am tied into a 2 year contract. I know the battery life is not very good, but I figure it is the same with most phones these days. I use my phone at the gym for cardio and watch a lot of movies. The super amoled screen is my main draw to this phone. Also, the phone is thiner & weighs less, the internal 16gb of memory is sick & the sleek, not bulky design just looks great. So what do you folks think? Mistake or good move?
