Although current state statutes limit marriage to couples of the opposite sex, we believe they are vulnerable to constitutional challenge. ... We believe it likely that a New Mexico court would apply intermediate scrutiny to this state's laws limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples. If so, based on the cases in other states that have applied intermediate scrutiny to similar laws in their states, there appears to be little possibility that New Mexico's laws precluding same-sex marriage would withstand an equal protection challenge.
The issue of same-sex marriage [JURIST backgrounder] remains controversial in the US. In May the Minnesota House approved a same-sex marriage bill which was later signed [JURIST reports] by the governor. Earlier that week Delaware's governor signed [JURIST report] a same-sex marriage bill into law. That same month Rhode Island's governor also signed [JURIST report] a same-sex marriage bill into law. In March the US Supreme Court heard oral arguments in two same-sex marriage cases. The first case, Hollingsworth v. Perry [JURIST report], examines the validity of Proposition 8 [JURIST news archive], a California referendum that revoked same-sex marriage rights. In the second case, United States v. Windsor [JURIST report], the court examines the constitutionality of Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act. The court granted certiorari [JURIST report] in the two cases in December. Both cases could have an important impact on the ongoing same-sex marriage controversy in the US. A ruling is expected later this month.

Cubs Season in Review
Dempster loses in season finale (GETTY)
The Sports XChange
Posted Sep 29, 2011
Not much was expected of the Cubs this year, and they delivered in kind with a record of 71-91.
That was enough to get general manager Jim Hendry fired (finally) in August, and it might cost field manager Mike Quade his job, too.
What the Cubs learned was that they were woefully short of depth, particularly in starting pitching. Right-handers Randy Wells (forearm) and Andrew Cashner (rotator cuff) went down after their first starts of the season, and there was nothing homegrown with which to replace them.
The Cubs had to sign retreads such as Doug Davis, Ramon Ortiz and Rodrigo Lopez, and the results were predictable: woefully inadequate. It was an indictment of a minor league system without any starters close to being major league ready.
The offense flashed power at times, with first baseman Carlos Pena, left fielder Alfonso Soriano and third baseman Aramis Ramirez each hitting at least 25 homers. But the Cubs ranked at or near the bottom of the National League in walks all season long.
Shortstop Starlin Castro is a star in the making, as he led the NL in hits with 207. He's still a work in progress defensively, but he's also only 21 years old and figures to be a fixture for this franchise for years to come.
While the starting pitching came up short, the bullpen performed generally well despite some monumental lapses in control and effectiveness by closer Carlos Marmol. Lefty Sean Marshall might be the best left-handed setup man in the league, and right-hander Jeff Samardzija made significant strides.
Team owner Tom Ricketts says he wants his new GM to be more analytical from a statistical standpoint than the old-school Hendry. The Cubs need to stress getting on base more. The new GM will have his work cut out in finding at least two solid starting pitchers and possible replacements at first base, third base and in the outfield.
--RHP Ryan Dempster reached the 200-innings mark for the fourth straight season. He endured a rough final start, giving up eight hits and nine runs in 5.2 innings. He needed 3.1 innings to reach 200. Dempster finished the season 10-14 with an ERA of 4.80. His ERA has risen from 2.96 in 2008 to 3.65 in 2009 to 3.85 in 2010. Dempster has a $14 million player option for next year that he's likely to pick up. He said he wanted time to "breathe" before he thinks too much about next year. "I'm proud of the way I battled all year," he said. "I was able to make my starts and give us a chance to win."
--Castro wound up leading the National League in hits and became the youngest player (and the first 21-year-old) ever to lead the NL in hits. Castro is the third Cub in the last seven years to lead the NL in hits, joining Juan Pierre (2006) and Derrek Lee (2005). Castro also ended the season with an 11-game hitting streak and a 40-game on-base streak. He finished the season with a .307 batting average and a .341 on-base percentage.
--Pena fell short of the 30-homer mark, finishing with a team-leading 28, to go along with 80 RBI. Pena led the club by far with 101 walks. It was the 12th 100-plus-walk season for the Cubs. Pena is a free agent at season's end. "I'm very grateful," Pena said of his year with the Cubs. He added that he hopes to be back but that he understands how the business of the game works if the Cubs choose to go in a different direction.
--Soriano tied for second on the club in homers with Ramirez (both players had 26). Ramirez has stated that he'll test the free-agent waters and that he's likely done as a member of the Cubs. Soriano still has three seasons remaining on his eight-year, $136 million deal.
"I'm (a) Chicago Cub," Soriano said. "We'll see what happens in the offseason. I hope to come back with a good year on a very good team to contend with next year."
There has been speculation the Cubs will try to trade the one-dimensional Soriano even if they have to eat money.
--C Steve Clevenger picked up his first major league hit in the season finale, a pinch-hit double leading off the fifth inning. Clevenger remained in the game replacing Koyie Hill behind the plate. Clevenger, 25, came up from Class AA (Kodak) Tennessee Sept. 19. He has a chance to make the club out of spring training next year. "Left-handed (hitting) catcher, and he can hit," said Quade.
BY THE NUMBERS: 0 -- The Cubs hit no grand slams all year. It's the first time they went an entire season without a grand slam since 1997.
HE SAID IT: "I think one thing you've seen in baseball over the last few years is that turnarounds can happen pretty quickly. I don't think it's meaningful to describe a year as a rebuilding year." -- Team chairman Tom Ricketts, on whether he considers 2012 a rebuilding year.
The Cubs were every bit as bad as their 71-91 record indicated. Their starting pitching is thin, and their offense continues to be on-base challenged. Most important, the Cubs need a new general manager to replace Hendry. The new GM inherits much of Hendry's front office as key personnel were retained. But whoever the new GM is will decide the fate of Quade, who is under contract for one more year. Ricketts likely would take the entire month of October before deciding on his GM choice.
BIGGEST NEEDS: Although the bullpen performed reasonably well, Cubs starting pitchers finished the season with an ERA of 4.79. The Cubs need two decent starting pitchers and after that there are still plenty of holes to fill. The new GM is looking at potential vacancies at first base, third base and right field, and ownership must decide what to do with Soriano, who still has three years left on his eight-year, $136 million contract.
FREE AGENTS: 3B Aramis Ramirez (mutual option), 1B Carlos Pena, RHP Ryan Dempster (player option), LHP John Grabow, OF Reed Johnson, RHP Kerry Wood.
Ramirez has repeatedly stated that his days in Chicago are likely over as he'll decline his part of the mutual option and seek a multiyear deal on the open market. The Cubs seem to want Pena back, but that will be up to the new GM and also if ownership decides to get into a bidding war for either Albert Pujols or Prince Fielder, should they hit the market. Dempster is weighing his options, but he's likely to return. Grabow is a goner after two ineffective years. Johnson's return will depend on the new GM. Wood, a Chicago favorite, has said he'll either pitch for the Cubs next year or retire.
ARBITRATION-ELIGIBLE: C Geovany Soto, IF Jeff Baker, C Koyie Hill, IF Blake DeWitt, RHP Matt Garza, RHP Randy Wells.
The Cubs had only one case go to arbitration in the Hendry years, and it will be interesting to see if there's a philosophy change with a new regime. Ownership no doubt would like to tie up Garza with a long-term deal. Soto has had an up-and-down career, but the Cubs likely will keep him. Wells will be entering arbitration eligibility for the first time, and he figures to be a back-of-the-rotation guy the Cubs will keep. Baker is a useful part, but DeWitt may be a non-tender candidate.
IN LIMBO: RHP Carlos Zambrano, LF Alfonso Soriano, RHP Carlos Marmol.
Zambrano has a grievance pending on his being put on the disqualified list. The Cubs will try to move him and eat money on the final year of his contract. Soriano ended the year with decent numbers, but he's become a one-dimensional player and his contract is an albatross. The Cubs no doubt want to move him, but they will have to eat a significant portion of the money. Marmol had a rough year as closer, but he signed a three-year contract before the season. The Cubs might have been best served dealing him at the July 31 trading deadline, but they might not get much in return now, and the money is a problem.
--Cashner missed five months of the season with a strained right rotator cuff. He'll go to the Arizona Fall League to build on the innings he got out of the bullpen in September. Right now, it's not known whether the Cubs see him as a starter or a late-inning reliever next year. His health and the new GM will determine that.
--Wood was scheduled to have arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. He'll be a rehab case if he and the Cubs decide to continue their relationship.

Looking to past wars for insight into the present conflict Published before the outbreak of the major conflict between Hizbullah and Israel, Shlomo Ben Amis important book provides perspective on the Jewish states arrival at this juncture in its history. Ben-Ami, the former foreign minister of Israel under Prime Minister Ehud Barak, was involved in the Camp David summit in 2000. His book reflects the politics of the Israeli Left those who view the choices facing Israel during Ariel Sharons tenure as prime minister, and now under Ehud Olmert, as options between a violent and unilateral separation or disengagement and a comprehensive peace plan that would be imposed on both parties by an international peace coalition headed by the United States. Ben-Ami, in urging the latter path, argues that such a peace plan be anchored in a special UN Security Council resolution that will view it as the authoritative international interpretation of UN Resolution 242, the basis for the land for peace formula that has become the mantra of the Israeli Left. Present when Yasser Arafat rejected the Clinton plan that would have led to the creation of a Palestinian state on more than 90 percent of the West Bank and Gaza, Ben-Ami faults former President Bill Clinton for his failure to rally the Arab governments behind his peace initiative and for not building a solid and effective international foundation to sustain and internationally legitimize his plan. Ben-Ami is prescient when he also argues that a major fallacy of the Oslo Accords was that they lacked any mechanism to lead the transition of the Palestinian resistance from a revolutionary movement to one committed to an orderly and democratic state. The result was that Hamas, unreconciled to Israels existence, continued to use the language of confrontation against the Jewish state and, through the democratic process, was elected a majority in the Palestinian parliament. It was simply a matter of time, therefore, before the militant Hamas movement, ideologically committed to the destruction of Israel, would lead the Palestinians into confrontation with their sworn enemy. In providing the historical background for this summers hostilities in Lebanon, Ben-Ami is critical in his description of Israels initial military incursion into Lebanon, which lasted from 1982 to June 2000. The major objective of Israels invasion was to eliminate the military and political challenge posed by the Palestine Liberation Organization, which had created a powerful standing army in control of much of the country. Although dismantling the Palestinian infrastructure in Lebanon was the primary objective of Israels military strategy, Ben-Ami reveals that the architects of the invasion, Prime Minister Menachem Begin and his defense minister, Ariel Sharon, had far wider ambitions. They believed that the defeat of the Palestinians in Lebanon would trigger a mass exodus of Palestinians to the east bank of the Jordan River, which in turn would bring about the collapse of the Hashemite dynasty and the Palestinisation of the kingdom in a way that would allow Israel a free hand to assert her rule in Judea and Samaria. Having defeated the Palestinians, Begin and Sharon planned moves to create a new order in Lebanon, with an undisputed Christian hegemony that would be forced to make peace with Israel. Ben-Ami notes with passion: But the war in Lebanon, which started in deceit and with grand strategic designs, ended in military disaster, political defeat, and human disgrace. It developed into an all-out confrontation between almost all the ethnic and national forces in Lebanon, and its saddest episodes were the massacre of hundreds of Palestinians in the Sabra and Chatila refugee camps that was perpetrated by Israels allies in the Christian militias with IDFs connivance. Ben-Ami helps us understand the background of the current crisis that Israel faces in Lebanon when he notes that although Israel destroyed the PLO infrastructure in Lebanon, it unleashed an even more formidable threat to its northern border with the founding of the Shiite militias of Hizbullah. The war in Lebanon in 1982, as is the case in the present conflict, brought Iran through its proxies the Hizbullah militias to Israels doorstep. Ben-Ami points to a similar dynamic in regard to Gaza whereby Israel, obsessed with the destruction of the PLO and the elimination of Arafat, ended up enthroning Hamas and other Islamic fundamentalist groups.

text: Hi, I'm Jessie and this is Nicci. We're here in the EatingWell Test Kitchen today, and we're going to talk with you a little bit about how you can eat more and lose weight. If you do just one thing to make your diet healthier, you should add fruits and vegetables. They not only decrease your risk for heart disease but also help you feel full. Okay, Nicci, over here we have one chocolate chip cookie for about a hundred calories. For that same number of calories, you can have a whole cup and a half of strawberries. Plus you get vitamin C. Over here you get a little portion of creamy macaroni salad for 300 calories. Or for the same number, you can have this whole plate of salad with lean protein on top that's really going to fill you up. This plate of high-fat Alfredo pasta has about 400 calories, and so does this plate of pasta which is about double the size, and is packed with vegetables and a little bit of heart-healthy olive oil too.

A taxi driver giving us a tour, seeing that I had a camera, told me too get out and take this picture. So I did, and the shot becoming one of my favorites. I used aperture to lighten the houses and darken the city.

Chubu, what we have right now is a working prototype -- that's what was required by the Level Up 2010 -- of BilliChess made using Unity3D. That's why I'm talking about rebuilding BC from scratch. So more than "some new graphics" and UI is needed.

In Topic: Kickstarter – testing the waters
27 January 2013 - 12:47 PM
Thing is that if I could get a relevant answer (numbers, please!) I'd provide the link to this thread on Kickstarter. Gamedev is a reputable site, BilliChess already proved to be a winning concept and if one puts two pluses together it'll result a .. well .. bigger plus.
I'd guess that somebody with some experience as a coordinator (i.e. s/he put together team/s before that actually concluded their project) would be best to provide some relevant numbers. Taking into account the best deals available will surely result in an acceptable $ amount for Kickstarter. Then it's up to us to make (A) things happen; (B) history ..

Python, 'higher than what you think, but not by too much that it deters possible donors' is not something that'd be acceptable on Kickstarter, or any other similar sites. I need to come up with a number ($ amount) most probably based on the reality of the video game industry.

3. I'll have to repeat myself, but the other application is a SE.

The Perseids meteor shower is tonight. Anyone going to go out and watch?
what time?
Which direction is best to watch toward?
I heard look to the west between 2 and 3 am.. Correct me if I'm wong.
This says anytime between midnight and dawn.
Cosmic Log - See (and hear) the meteor show
Started already, best should be from 3-before dawn
I don't know if you are in fact wong.
i heard 2-5 with 3 being the peak
I am gonna lay in my bed shortly and watch my popcorn ceilings spin.. that should be goode enough
Saw a few already. Should be northeast, but almost straight up.
They need to have these things during the day so I can get my beauty sleep.
I'm not going to get up early to watch at peak time.
Unless it's a double meteor shower :jimlad:.
I am always disappointed by these showers. I need my sleep more
Pretty cool outside. Perfect drinking conditions.:yes:
"The cosmic ballet goes on"
Just went outside and stood in the middle of my yard for 5 minutes with my head cranked up to the sky, I saw 1 meteor and wished for a championship at ISU. It better come true.

This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
As the ClubJeska tour page loaded, my "not overly excited" turned to "one-hand typing." (Okay, you know what? That isn't true. I am still typing with both hands. I'm sorry for not being honest, I was just trying to paint a picture for you.) Regardless of how many hands I am currently typing with, the point is that Jeska is hot!
She is a self-proclaimed punk-rock chick, so don't come looking for the blonde bimbo thing here. This hottie has a couple piercings in her bottom lip, one in her nose and her right arm and the right side of her abdomen are covered in tattoos. She is a professional nude model who, as she writes, "specializes in glam, fetish and sexy sexy hot pictorials."
The site appears to be updating weekly and so far Jeska has 57 photo sets and 50 videos. The pics are available in high-res and cover all aspects of her specialties (nude, glam, light fetish and sexy, hot images). The movies are short, about three to six minutes, and range from hot dildo masturbation to filmed photo shoots to softcore teasing to get-to-know video blogging. Unfortunately, the movies are average in quality (they can be downloaded or streamed right on the site).
Jeska has a twitter account that she seems to update constantly, although most of the tweets are a few words and not very interesting. Her inconsistently updated diary is a mixed bag – sometimes she writes a long entry about herself and her life and other times it's just a few sentences about how she is horny or how she wants a new tattoo. There is a webcam section, but there was nothing there when I checked it out.
Jeska is well deserving of her own site and from what she said in one of her ClubJeska video blogs, this site – and her fans – are important to her, which will make those who sign up feel like they can get to know her. However, at this point, the videos are too short and video quality could be improved. And there aren't any bonus sites with which to occupy your time between updates.

Custom Voodoo Curv. The latest and greatest by Sandy Reid and his design team at Rigging Innovations in Eloy, Arizona.
In addition to all the latest features from Rigging Innovations, the Voodoo Curv comes with just about every "option" included in the base price.
Highlights of the Voodoo Curv include:
- Eliminates the gap at the back by curving to your body
- Specially designed end tabs that result a lower profile of the main container
- Increase of 10% volume
- More comfortable during canopy flight
- Incorporates webbing stow band - no more losing them!
- Stainless steel mini ring hardware standard
- Protective BOC stowage flap
- "Sure-Grip" handles
- Included slider stow
- The upper harness is built from TY-8 webbing for comfort and flexibility.
- The leg straps are built from TY-7 webbing backed with TY-12 to preclude slippage of the stainless leg adapters.
- Stainless steel mini ring hardware is standard for looks and durability.
- All housings are completely fabric for looks and utilize stainless steel clamps for security
The Voodoo Curv design allows a smooth airflow over the back of the rig and jumper in any freefall attitude. The Voodoo Curv incorporates the Bio Curv backpad where the profile of the backpad, instead of being straight, is curved inward at the midpoint and follows the natural curve of the back. This allows the containers to hug the back intimately and eliminate the gap between the back and the rig. This then allows for an increase of approximately 10% in the available volume for each main container size with no increase in width or length. A totally new concept is the "Bio-Yoke" configuration (Patent Pending). This design concept incorporates a secondary shoulder yoke that holds the containers higher on the back and relieves the pressure of the regular shoulder yoke with its associated webbing and hardware. The Bio-Yoke spreads the load evenly across the back and shoulders.
The fit of the Voodoo Curv is more akin to wearing a vest or backpack than putting on an older style rig. With the distribution of the weight across the entire back, the perceived weight of the system is less than the actual weight. The inside of the yoke and leg pads are built with an inside seam resulting in greater comfort. The main container side flaps incorporate specially designed end tabs that result in a lower profile of the main container.
The Voodoo harness has become the standard of the world for fit, comfort and strength. The 3-ring geometry has been changed to slightly lower the 3-ring location for a more comfortable seated position during canopy flight. The lower hip ring geometry has been changed to allow more flexibility of the horizontal back strap, allowing the containers to seek a more natural location on the back. The leg strap junction has been totally re-designed to provide greater comfort and security around the upper thigh. This holds the leg strap and pad in place and prevents them from sliding down the leg in freefall. This virtually eliminates the need for the "bungee" cross connector.
The chest strap incorporates a webbing stow band to replace the elastic keepers that stretch out of shape or get lost. The lower main lift webs incorporate slim line modular pockets for the 3-ring release and reserve ripcord. The pockets also protect the lift web webbing from wear, abrasion and ultra violet degradation, and allow the main lift webs to stretch under high "G" loads, preventing hard pulls of the reserve and 3-ring release.
Main risers and toggles. TY-17 risers with stainless steel hardware, Velcroless toggles, dive loops, and anti-twist cable tubes are standard. Standard length is 20" with custom lengths available at no additional charge.
Main Pilot Chute and Bridle. The standard main deployment configuration is a BOC throw-out pilot chute with a Hackey and kill-line collapsible bridle.
The BOC pocket incorporates a small stowage flap that helps keep the pilot chute from creeping out and positions the handle in the same place every time.
Reserve ripcord and 3-ring release handle. A metal mini trapezoidal ripcord handle is standard with a pillow or loop handle optional. The pillow ripcord and 3-ring release handle come standard with rubberized "Sure-Grip" fabric for a better grip under all conditions.
Slider stow. A specially designed loop is built into the top reserve flap which allows attachment of a custom designed magnetic slider stow without interfering with the operation of the reserve.
Hook Knife. A high impact hook knife and pocket is integrated into the right side main lift web cover and 3-ring release pocket.
To place an order for a custom Voodoo Curv, download the order form from this link. The completed order form should be faxed or scanned/e-mailed directly to ChutingStar.

Gruden staying put at ESPN
Jon Gruden told ESPN that he will remain with the network as an analyst through at least the 2014 season.
Gruden is a rumored candidate for the vacant Houston Texans' head coaching job, but said he is going nowhere.
"I'm just trying to do my job," Gruden said. "I'm not going to address every little rumor or supposed conversation that takes place, according to these so-called sources.
"There are a lot of good coaches out there available to coach these teams. I'm just hoping ESPN likes the job I'm doing. That's my focus."
Gruden wants to continue as the "Monday Night Football" analyst, his quarterback camp series televised by ESPN and his outreach to consult high school coaches.
Gruden coached the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a Super Bowl title over the Oakland Raiders a decade ago after previously coaching the Raiders. In 11 seasons, he compiled a 95-81 record, including five playoff appearances.
He has worked at ESPN since 2009.

Michelle Sale, The New York Times Learning Network Andrea Perelman, The Bank Street College of Education in New York City Subjects: American History, Geography, Science Interdisciplinary Connections Review the Academic Content Standards related to this lesson. Suggested Time Allowance: 1. Explore hurricanes through an informational quiz. 2. Consider the damage caused by Hurricane Charley by reading and discussing the article "Federal Relief Is Distributed in Florida Areas Hit by Storm." 3. Research various major hurricanes in United States history for a guide book on hurricanes. 4. Create pages for a class guide entitled "Hurricane History" and compare various aspects of the storms they researched. Resources / Materials: -pens/pencils -classroom blackboard -copies of the article "Federal Relief Is Distributed in Florida Areas Hit by Storm," found online at http://www.nytimes.com/learning/teachers/featured_articles/20040817tuesday.html (one per student) -resources about hurricanes (science textbooks, atlases and/or maps of the United States, encyclopedias, computers with Internet access) -sheets of drawing or graphing paper (optional) -markers (enough for students to share) -large sheets of construction paper (one per group; to be used for pages for the "Hurricane History" guide) -string or fastener (to put guide together) 1. 'Hurricane' is another name for a typical storm involving thunder and lightning. 2. Hurricanes can occur in any part of the world. 3. During a hurricane, windows should be covered in tape to prevent them from breaking. 4. Hurricanes that affect the east coast of the United States usually occur in the summer and early fall. 5. Hurricanes and tornadoes are basically the same phenomena."
After a few minutes, allow students time to share their responses. Then provide the correct answers, with information taken from the National Hurricane Center's FAQ's Web page at http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/tcfaq/tcfaqHED.html:
2. As a class, read and discuss the article "Federal Relief Is Distributed in Florida Areas Hit by Storm" found online at http://www.nytimes.com/learning/teachers/featured_articles/20040817tuesday.html focusing on the following questions:
3. Divide students into small groups of three or four students. Explain that each group will be researching a hurricane that had a great impact on the United States, and then compiling their information into a class "Hurricane History" guide. Each group will be creating a page for the guide, which will eventually be archived as part of the school's reference library. Allow each group to choose a major hurricane from this list: Galveston (1900), Great Atlantic (1944), Connie and Diane (1955), Donna (1960), Camille (1969), Hugo (1989), Andrew (1992), Mitch (1998), Floyd (1999) and Isabel (2003). Encourage students to begin their research at http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/HAW2/english/history.shtml, finding the answers to the following questions (written on the board for easier student access):
Once groups have completed their research, they should divide the work for creating the group's page for the guide book, "Hurricane History." Tasks may include, but are not limited to: 4. WRAP-UP/HOMEWORK: In groups, students work to complete their assigned tasks and pages for the "Hurricane History" guide. In a future class, students should present their pages to the class and then compile the guide. (The teacher may ask students to create a cover for the guide as extra credit.) The teacher should plan time in class for students to analyze the statistical data for each hurricane and create charts comparing various aspects of the storms. Finally, the guide should become part of the school's library for future reference. -What could people do to their homes to safeguard them against hurricane damage? -What are the requirements for an area to be called a "national disaster"? -How is the amount of federal aid for a disaster determined? -Consider the items listed in the article that people considered necessities, such as gasoline, milk, ice, water, etc. What are the things you think you couldn't live without? Why? -How would not having electricity impact your life? What changes might you have to make? 2. Write a research paper examining the field of meteorology. What do meteorologists study? How is the information gathered distributed to members of our society? 3. Create a glossary of hurricane terms, including descriptions of the categories used to describe them. 4. Research how hurricanes are named. Create an oral report and include an explanation of what role your name has played in the history of hurricane naming. Has it been used, or is it on deck for future use? Retired? 5. What types of natural disasters occur in the area in which you live? Create a family disaster plan detailing escape routes, emergency supplies, contact plans, and so on. Language Arts - Write a series of journal entries from the point of view of a person who survived the hurricane you researched during class. Be sure to include information about the storm itself, its aftermath and the cleanup. Mathematics - Choose two storms featured in the "Hurricane History" guide and compare their numbers as percentages. (For example, "Storm X lost 20 people, which is five percent more than those who died in Storm Y.") Be sure to show the formulas used to create your answers. Social Studies - Create an oral report on the Hurricane Hunters, a division of the Air Force Reserve that actually flies into the eyes of major storms. Their Web site (http://www.hurricanehunters.com/) provides a detailed history and pictures inside various storms. Teaching with The Times - Gather at least ten Times articles about Hurricane Charley and examine the range of specific topics covered. Write an essay demonstrating the various (and sometimes surprising) story angles, such as the areas of politics, insurance, water shortages, survival stories, and so on. Technology - Research how wind affects ocean waves. Prepare a Power Point presentation illustrating your findings about the relationship between wind speeds and water depths. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)'s Web site (http://www.fema.gov/) provides information about emergency assistance. The National Hurricane Center (http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/) provides tracking and forecasting information about hurricanes and tropical storms.

Inability to produce white dermographism in the early stage of infantile eczema. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 2704663 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
White dermographism constitutes an abnormal vascular reaction characteristically demonstrable in atopic dermatitis; however, there is no information about it in the infantile phase of atopic dermatitis. Therefore we examined 73 infants younger than 3 years of age with eczematous dermatitis for the demonstrability of white dermographism after mechanical stroking of the lesional skin. None of the 40 healthy control infants showed white dermographism on their normal skin. In contrast, an age-dependent increase was demonstrated in patients with infantile eczema, from 11% in those 1 to 2 months of age to 85% in those older than 7 months. There was no correlation between the demonstrability of white dermographism in early infancy and the prognosis of infantile eczema. Based on our study of various types of dermatitis experimentally induced in adult volunteers, we think that, in addition to the immaturity of infantile skin, the presence of acute dermatitic changes may be related to inability to demonstrate white dermographism in the early phase of infantile eczema. |

Your Future Is In Your hands
* Praise God for His plan for the future. Let HOPE spring forth. Thank Him that He has an expected end.
Even though these ppl were carried into captivity by Nebuchadnezzar, God still had a plan for them that was great. They were told to build, plant, and be productive.
As Christians, we have to understand that no matter what situation we're in that God still has a plan for our lives! In the midst of trouble, stay productive, seek Him, and not allow the situation to effect your walk.
LET'S THINK: we all was once in the world, but now we're Saved by grace. What was your life like when you was in the world? Even in the mess you was in God had a plan all along. LOOK NOW…your life is nothing like you expected & accomplish goals you never thought you would reach. See God was working in your behalf.

INDIANAPOLIS — INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - A health insurer providing Medicaid coverage has enlisted the Indiana Minority Health Coalition and the group's 25 local affiliates to educate members of its plans on their benefits.
Managed Health Services is one of three private insurers that provide Medicaid coverage under the Healthy Indiana Plan for low-income adults and Hoosier Healthwise for children and pregnant women.
It said Monday that its Family Education Network will advise Medicaid plan members on their benefits, how to access care, and other topics. MHS says the network now is available in Marion, Lake, Vanderburgh, St. Joseph and Elkhart counties and more counties will be added later.
MHS will first direct members of its plans to Minority Health Coalition offices in Indianapolis, where staff will assign member to local offices for scheduling.

We rented a car for three days while in Spoleto (Abbiamo noleggiato una macchina per tre giorni a Spoleto--well, I think I will stop the real-time translation now...). This and the next few essays will review the trips we took. I hope that you, who will no doubt want to take a car trip through Umbria some day, will file away some of these trip tips for your own benefit.
Day Trips in Umbria
We stayed in Spoleto, the capital of the ancient Lombard duchy and decided to take day trips and then return for concerts and other performances at the Spoleto Music Festival (Festival dei Due Mondi) in the evenings. The first day saw us take a circle to a National Park to the East of Spoleto, through Visso, Castelluchio and finally to Norcia. During the second day we headed for central Umbria through some back roads, repeatedly getting lost, until we came to Montefalco and the Antonelli winery near Montefalco before doubling back towards Spoleto to visit the ancient monastery/church of San Pietro and then the magnificent and stunning Marmore (waterfall) about five miles from Terni. Finally, the third day we headed way up north to take in Assisi and then the most preserved medieval town in Umbria, Gubbio. Here are a few thoughts, with pictures and commentaries on a few of these trips.
Day 1: North to Visso and Over to Castelluchio
The 1980-style map we had didn't show a tunnel built in the 1990s that sliced through the mountains East of Spoleto and delivered us to the beautiful Nera Valley. The day was hot, about 90 degrees, and I knew we eventually would be doing considerable climbing, to reach a road altitude of about 5,000 feet, but first we wended our way through the parklike forests to Visso, a small town in NE Umbria. It was here that we finally learned how "Reverse" worked in our Fiat. I was ready to trade the car in, or at least push it backwards while Virginia, ever the more practical, just played with the stick until she realized she had to so some lifting and sliding before the stick would shift to reverse. That, I am afraid to say, was the most exciting part of our 30 minute stay in Visso. But then we headed over through the National Park, the Sybillini Mountains and to the small mountain hamlet of Castelluccio. On the way, however, we reached a high spot in the road, and so we stopped. As is so often the case in Italy, there were signs of religious (Catholic) faith even in these remote locales, and we found this charming little shrine/chapel at the highest spot in the road.
Also at the crest of a hill was the following sandstone (I think) monument of sorts, celebrating the simple life of the shepherd, tying it also to expressions of religious faith.
Drinking in the Vistas
As we left this high point in the road (we could have gone yet higher, to a a resort of sorts), we headed toward Castelluccio, advertised as the highest town in Italy (about 4900 feet above sea level) outside of the Italian Alps. The town was perched on an outcropping of rock and looked out to the towering (8000 feet or more) heights of the Mt. Vettore across the valley. Here is one view of the mountains.
To the right is the tiny village of Castelluccio, but straight ahead (East) are the Sybillini Mountains. You can even see the narrow veins of snow that still were unmelted even in the relatively hot late June sun, though by the time we got to Castelluccio it was not more than 75 degrees, I would imagine. Virginia found a man who made cowbells and bought a new bell for her front door. I though we would find a monastery atop the hill but we did not.
Several hiking trails led from Castelluccio either to the Sybillini in the East, to some hills across the way to the West, or to the valleys surrounding us. We didn't have time to take them, but filed them away for another time though, with Robert Frost, we doubted if we would ever come back. So, we walked through the winding streets of Castelluccio, looked in their tiny church, took pictures of the valley below, walked down narrow passageways and then returned to our car to continue our journey. The next essay tells more.
