What to Expect
Are you interested in impacting today's youth? JA volunteers are passionate people inspiring kids to learn the economics of life through free enterprise education. JA enables caring adults to share their experience with students to show them what it takes to be successful in school and in life.
The volunteer time commitment varies according to the grade level and/or program chosen. Programs at the elementary level are 30-45 minute visits once a week for 5 weeks, requiring just 5 visits from the volunteer. Programs at the middle school level are 45 minutes a week for 6-8 weeks. Programs at the high school level are 45 minutes a week and typically last a semester.
New volunteers must attend a 1 hour training session, and an initial classroom observation visit is recommended. JA does offer online training. Most volunteers prefer this method of training because it's available to them at their convenience. To access online training, click here.
Junior Achievement will provide you with professionally developed curriculum materials. You add your personal experiences to make it come alive. The classroom teacher remains in the room to assist and support your activities.

I'd certainly back away from that. They want to be able to send me email because I did them a favor and put a link to their website on Facebook? That seems like way to much information they want access to but anymore you never know what people have access to especially via Facebook.
It seems like more and more sites are accessing or trying to access that type of thing. Ended up on Buy.com when looking for something and got some kind of a popup about going shopping with my (Facebook) friends. Um, no thanks.

What if I lose my job?
The loss of a job may create new tax issues. Severance pay and unemployment compensation are taxable. Payments for any accumulated vacation or sick time also are taxable. You should ensure that enough taxes are withheld from these payments or make estimated tax payments to avoid a big bill at tax time. Public assistance and food stamps are not taxable. The IRS has updated a helpful publication which lists a number of job-loss related tax issues. For more information, see Publication 4128, Tax Impact of Job Loss and the Tax Center to Assist Unemployed Taxpayers.

Glocalizing HR Service Delivery
In this webinar, Ben Martinez, organizational development expert and HR Director at HireVue, and Dwane Lay, Head of HR Process Design at Dovetail Software, will discuss how HR SSCs can glocalize HR service delivery. Glocal refers to taking products or services intended for a global market and adapting them to fit local needs. HR Shared Services Centers (HR SSCs) that operate worldwide are implemented to standardize their core HR systems and processes globally. How, then, can HR SSCs operate globally but customize service delivery to suit local laws, cultures and communication standards? Watch now to find out!
Most organizations implement HR Shared Services Centers to streamline their service delivery processes, reduce costs and hopefully provide better service to their employees. To accomplish these goals, designing a shared services model that supports company culture and fosters user adoption is critical.
In today's webinar, Dan Vander Hey, Shared Services expert and Principal Consultant at KnowledgeSource, and Kane Frisby, Chief Strategy Officer at Dovetail Software, will discuss how to set up HR services that work for your Shared Services Center and accomplish its overall goals. Watch Now!
The driving forces behind most HR Shared Services Centers is efficiency and quality. Measuring these two attributes in a meaningful way can be can be complex and differs from organization to organization.
In this webinar, industry veteran and Lean Systems authority Dwane Lay will discuss how to define metrics that really matter for your HRSSC, the best ways to present your findings, and how to leverage them into a true competitive advantage.
In this webinar, HR compliance expert and co-founder of Omega HR Solutions Mike Haberman and Dovetail's Head of HR Process Design Dwane Lay will discuss ways you can become the HR compliance expert in your organization and share best practices for compliant and consistent employee relations.
Hosted in partnership with cfactor. In this webinar, panelists Jim Scully, Founder of HR Shared Services Institute, Kane Frisby, Chief Strategy Officer at Dovetail Software and Cary Schuler, CEO of cfactor will discuss how you can apply the same culture and values that make a business thrive in an HR Shared Services Center to achieve optimal results, operational agility, and permeate all parts of your organization.
In this webinar, participants will learn the basics of Twitter and how to monitor small lists of people, specifically for human resources professionals.

How do you know your shared services model is performing as efficiently and effectively as it should? What metrics should you be tracking?
Unfortunately, there is no simple or universal answer,but there is a proper and useful way to measure shared services performance and value.
In this webinar, Jim Scully, president ofthe Shared Services Institute,explains the flaws of conventional benchmarking and performance measurement approaches and offers a step-by-step method of defining and measuring shared services value.
With the great expense that is poured into developing and acquiring technology, HR departments have repeatedly found themselves bemoaning poor adoption and usage numbers. More vexing still are the stories of other organizations that have implemented identical platforms, but with much different outcomes. The message, then, is that adoption and implementation is far less about the technology than it is the people, the process, and understanding of your own organization.
In this webinar, Dwane Lay, Head of HR Process Design at Dovetail Software, and China Gorman, CEO at CMG Group, will review the most common reasons implementations fail, and simple steps technology owners can take to support early adoption and long term usage.

To develop a self-assessed melanoma risk score to identify high-risk persons for screening
We used data from a 1997 melanoma case-control study from Washington State, USA, where 386 cases with invasive cutaneous melanoma and 727 controls were interviewed by telephone. A logistic regression prediction model was developed on 75% of the data and validated in the remaining 25% by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), a measure of predictive accuracy from 0.5–1 (higher scores indicating better prediction). A risk score was calculated for each individual, and sensitivities for various risk cutoffs were calculated.
The final model included sex, age, hair color, density of freckles, number of severe sunburns in childhood and adolescence, number of raised moles on the arms, and history of non-melanoma skin cancer. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC) was 0.70 (95% CI: 0.64, 0.77). The top 15% risk group included 50% of melanomas (sensitivity 50%).
This self-assessed score could be used as part of a comprehensive melanoma screening and public education program to identify high-risk individuals in the general population. This study suggests it may be possible to capture a large proportion of melanomas by screening a small high-risk group. Further study is needed to determine the costs, feasibility, and risks of this approach.

The fact that it lost lift so quickly in a thunderstorm may mean it went through a downdraft.
A microburst perhaps.
A BHOJA AIR 737 carrying 127 passengers and crew was coming in for a landing in a thunderstorm near Islamabad on Friday when it suddenly dropped from 2,900ft (883 metres) to 2,000ft (609 metres), appeared to lose control, hit the ground, bounced up from the impact and exploded, according to witness accounts and government statements. There were no survivors.
In Pakistan, the rush to judgment has already begun. Farooq Bhoja, the head of the airline, has been barred from leaving the country—a hint that a criminal investigation may be on the way. Rehman Malik, the country's interior minister, has implied that the age of the aeroplane, which has been in service with various airlines for over three decades, may have been a factor. Bhoja Air "seems to be at fault as it had acquired a very old aircraft," he told the press. But well-maintained planes can last significantly longer than 30 years, and the age of an aircraft is rarely cited as a factor in a fatal crash.
The Associated Press has an excellent story on the crash that takes an appropriately sceptical tone towards Mr Malik's statements and the three crash probes that have been launched since Friday:
Malik's comments—and the three official investigations—appeared to be part of a government effort to move quickly and deflect some of the criticism that it is likely to find itself under in coming days because of the crash.
Such is distrust of the state in Pakistan, few believe the government—which lurches from crisis to crisis, clinging to power in the face of a mostly hostile media, opposition and judiciary—has the will to hold politically connected people accountable or carry out credible investigations.
A rush to judgment, irresponsible comments from the government and three separate investigations are not going to do much to restore flyers' confidence in the Pakistani government's ability to safely regulate its airlines. Pakistan's state-owned flag carrier, Pakistan International Airlines, was barred from all EU airports for eight months in 2007, so it's clear that international air-travel regulators haven't had the highest opinion of Pakistan's aviation sector in the past. So far, the chaos following this incident—the second major crash near Islamabad in as many years—is only making the Pakistani government and its Civil Aviation Authority look worse.
It is of course possible that Bhoja Air was at fault in Friday's crash. But other factors could have played a role in this tragedy. Hazardous weather conditions were reported near the airport. Pilot error could have been a factor. It's impossible for anyone—Mr Malik, the media, or outside experts—to know exactly who or what is at fault for this crash before the plane's black boxes are examined and a full, professional investigation is completed. Let's wait for that to happen before we decide who deserves the blame.
The Economist welcomes your views. Please stay on topic and be respectful of other readers. Review our comments policy.
The fact that it lost lift so quickly in a thunderstorm may mean it went through a downdraft.
A microburst perhaps.
The aircraft appears to have been one which was in service with BA/Comair in South Africa until 2009. There is no question that it would not have been well maintained up to that point, its age is therefore irrelevant.
What happened to it after it left South Africa is likely to be a very different story.
As in most accidents, there is very rarely a single cause, but rather a combination of circumstances.
At this time, it appears that in regard to the major cause of the accident, everything points toward "pilot error" (and don't blame me for saying that, I myself am a pilot... and there are many examples of similar "pilot error" resulting in fatal accidents): the pilot in command pushed to land under adverse weather conditions (thunderstorms, hail, etc.) instead of "going around" and diverting the flight to an alternate airport with better weather conditions. Age of airplane has nothing to do with it... unless maintenance should be a factor, and even then, it most likely would be only a "contributing factor" (as the weather was). That the authorities and the operator are quick to point fingers at each other is a sore spectacle worthy only of a banana republic...
Makes me wonder how civil servants in Pakistan manage to get any work done. All that distraction from "disasters of the week".
At this rate, Pakistani Air Minister may end up being clobbered to death like his neighbour in Afghanistan, resulting in Pakistani version of THIS headline in a few months:
I wonder how Pakistani airborne Sumo differs from the Afghan ones... :P
It seems to me that governments usually rush judgements of disasters or accidents when they happen to be culpable.

Four reasons to consider strengthening security
Benefits Beyond Security
Besides strengthening facility security, visitor management systems:
The world has changed.Workplace violence, industrial espionage, and terrorism threaten personnel and property security. When facility entrances aren't secure, companies are vulnerable - and liable. For example:
A visitor management system with software tools, ID validation, physical barriers, and a well-designed lobby can keep the wrong people out and let the right people in efficiently.
Lobbies are your first defense."The lobby is the single-most important security point in any building or facility where protection of personnel and property is paramount," says Richard Grassie, a Certified Protection Professional and president of TECHMARK Security Integration Inc., Rockland, MD. "Security around visitor management has to be nearly flawless."
Grassie says that lobby systems must support security physically, electronically, and procedurally. Visitor management systems should:
Digital trumps paper for security."A digital system provides an audit trail that's easy to create and access," says Orchid. When facilities rely on logbooks, reusable visitor badges, and security guards, security breaches are more likely:
Visitor management already works.Consider:

Washington, D.C. (June 29, 2010) − D.C. United announced today the club has released midfielder Christian Castillo.

MLS clubs return to US Open Cup action
MLS clubs continue their involvement in the nation's oldest soccer tournament when they kick off the third round of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup this week.
Similar in format to England's FA Cup, the 96-year-old tournament is open to all clubs—whether professional or amateur—that are members of the United States Soccer Federation.

Seasonal Depression Disorder
Yep, it's that time of year again-the delightful season when nature gifts us with a show of her finest colors, when the weather cools enough for light scarves and boots, when the kids pick out pumpkins and costumes…
…and when Seasonal Affective Disorder hits me like a winter storm. Seriously, it's a thing-SAD, which is about the most apropos abbreviation for a legitimate disorder I've ever heard. That moniker it's right on the money-it makes you sad.
I first heard about SAD in 2003, when my husband and I moved to Oregon for nine months early in our marriage. Kyle grew up in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, a beautiful slice of country that's known for nine months of drizzle and more gray than sun. It was not strange to him that your foot would usually sink several inches when you step in the grass, or that people comment more when the sun is out than when the forecast predicted rain.
Related: The 8 signs of Holiday Affective Disorder...and how to get help
Strike that, reverse it for me. I grew up in Austin, Texas, in the heart of the hill country, better known as God's Country. 300 days of sunshine, on average. Regular sufferer of drought, Austin has no shortage of cloudless days, even in the winter.
So when I moved to Oregon, you can imagine my surprise-they gray knew no end. But the thing is that while I noticed the obvious rain and gray skies, I didn't put two and two together-that the weather would affect my physical well-being-into we were deep into winter.
That winter was the first time I really experienced depression, and I didn't know what was up. I was lethargic, spacey, and unmotivated to really do anything. It took a lot of effort to get out of bed and get ready for the day, much less get dinner on the table or run errands. I would cry about the ridiculous. I was overly sensitive. It was a rough season for me.
One day in late February, enough was enough. Another day of gray and rain was forecasted, so I decided to research how long it had been since the sun last shone. Early November. As in, almost four solid months of NO sun.
I did a bit more research, and sure enough, there's this thing called Seasonal Affective Disorder, where you actually have circumstantial depression caused by the lack of sun.
Our bodies need vitamin D to thrive, but it only makes it when our skin is exposed to efficient sunlight. According to WebMD, only people who live south of a line drawn from Los Angeles to Columbia, South Carolina get enough sunlight for vitamin D production throughout the year. That line is pretty far south of Oregon.
And sure enough, by the time May rolled around that year and the sun peeked from behind the clouds, my mood brightened, I started feeling more like myself, and I had productive days once again.
Since that season almost a decade ago, I've learned that I'm prone to SAD, so I take precautionary measures when I notice the days getting shorter. Each of these things are small steps that add up to a clearer head and brighter days in the dead of winter. It's the same simple routine for me this year-here's my basic checklist:
1. Aim for sufficient vitamin D.
I take 4,000 IUs of vitamin D daily, regardless of the season. Most of us don't get enough anyway, and from what my nutritionist and naturopath have said, it's pretty difficult to get too much. I take the basic Kirkland brand from Costco. Vitamin D deficiency is the basic issue with SAD, so making sure I get enough is one of the easiest, most obvious things I can do.
Related: You'll save money on therapy...and 7 more unexpected benefits of exercise
I love to exercise…. once I get out the door and get started. All that other stuff beforehand? That's another story. It's still a habit I'm working on, but the natural endorphins do wonders for my combating depression. It doesn't take much-just 20 minutes a day produces enough endorphins to help you feel significantly better. Right now, I like to run.
3. Early to bed, early to rise…Nights are longer and days are shorter, so it's a bit easier to turn in earlier during the colder months. It's more of a challenge to wake up early, however, but it's significantly easier for me when I get a solid eight hours sleep. Sticking to a sleep routine-going to bed when my body says it's time, and then waking to start the day even if I don't always "feel" like it-really kicks my SAD to the curb. It tells my body that YES, we will have a fruitful, productive day.
4. Grab sunshine when you can.Even prolonged periods of gray weather are treated every now and then with a few minutes of sunshine. I go out of my way to spend a little bit of time outdoors every day-even a simple walk around the block. Day after day locked in my house, and I start to go a bit nuts. Ask my husband.
People who have more serious issues with SAD equip their homes with special lights that stimulate the sunshine, and counseling often helps as well. I have a history of depression, so I can tell you first-hand how much cognitive therapy helps. If you feel like you have more serious symptoms-get help. Really. No shame at all.
Now that I live in another city with plenty of sunshine, I still feel the side effects of SAD every winter, so these simple steps go a long way to preserve my sanity. Fall remains one of my favorite times of year, but it's simply the dawn of winter-and it's long up here in the north. Baby steps like these can help get you though those six months of cold, dreary weather.

George Shearing
George Shearing
For a long stretch of time in the 1950s and early '60s, George Shearing had one of the most popular jazz combos on the planet -- so much so that, in the usual jazz tradition of distrusting popular success, he tended to be underappreciated. Shearing's main claim to fame was the invention of a unique quintet sound, derived from a combination of piano, vibraphone, electric guitar, bass, and drums. Within this context, Shearing would play in a style he called "locked hands," which he picked up and refined from Milt Buckner's early-'40s work with the Lionel Hampton band, as well as Glenn Miller's sax section and the King Cole Trio. Stating the melody on the piano with closely knit, harmonized block chords, with the vibes and guitar tripling the melody in unison, Shearing sold tons of records for MGM and Capitol in his heyday.

Prince William and Kate Middleton New Years Eve party animal skin theme?
January 2nd, 2012
Prince William and Kate Middleton celebrated New Year's Eve in a rather nontraditional style. Rather than partying it up at William's father's estate in Aberdeen, Scotland, the famous royal couple pitched a tent in the back yard of the Middleton family home in Berkshire, England. Kate's sister Pippa Middleton served as the hostess, a business with which she is well familiar. After all, the Middleton's are known for owning a huge family rum party planning business in London, England! So why are they in trouble with animal rights activists? Over rumors the New Years Eve party was held in an animal skin tent. Keep reading... More good news and green gossip on this [...]

Holistic Living - From Life Positive to Life Divine
by Purnima Coontoor
Four Steps to Surrender
Shri Shri Nimishananda Guruji outlines four simple steps that can be practiced by anybody with a will to be transformed, which will lead to destruction of the ego, and foster an attitude of totalMore >>
As temple bells chime during the maha-mangalarathi every Sunday evening at the Shri Nimishamba Devi Temple in a peaceful suburb of Bangalore, the chanting of om reaches a crescendo in the satsang hall below. Seated on an ornate peetha bedecked with flowers, resplendent in white kurta and dhoti with a red angavastram, Shri Shri Nimishananda Guruji speaks to hundreds of avid seekers about the path to self-realization. His language simple, his discourse laced with humor, and peppered with everyday instances that people can identify with, Guruji serves the bitter pill of Vedanta in easily palatable doses. In all his talks, he emphasizes the importance
of patience, tolerance, and unconditional love. Helping people to establish their lives on the stable cornerstones of dharma, satya, ahimsa and prema, Shri Nimishananda Guruji is one of the prominent guiding lights in a world filled with the darkness of ignorance.
Guruji is one of the rare souls who experienced samadhi by the grace of the divine mother in 1995, when he was just 36, which prompted him to abandon the pursuit of worldly pleasures in favor of a spiritual one. A yogi belonging to the grihasta rishi sampradaya (the order of householder rishis), he is now engaged in sharing the divine grace with serious sadhakas. Gurujis compelling personality is evident in the powerful influence he wields through love and compassion towards his devotees and disciples, many of who have shifted residence and even cities to be near him. Most of them talk reverentially of the miracles wrought in their lives after coming under his grace, benefiting both materially and spiritually. Guruji also meets individuals on a personal level to counsel them, and gently set them on the path to right living. His discourses have been telecast on Aastha, and is presently available on Z Kannada every morning. The Shree Public Charitable Trust is also engaged in socially beneficial activities, including free ambulance service 24 hours a day, and annadana every single day.
In a chat with Life Positive, Shri Shri Nimishananda Guruji talks of the divine alchemy of converting a life
negative into a life positive, and then to a life divine.
Guruji on his Journey so Far...
I was born Shri Harsha in Mysore, a simple seedha sadha individual who loved God, though he didnt know who He was. I wasnt into intense worship, but had surrendered to a Higher Power. I was a civil engineer by profession, self-employed with a construction firm. At one point of time, I found myself stuck in my work, and encountered many obstacles. Somebody suggested that I visit the temple of goddess Nimishamba who had the reputation of granting instant boons (as her name suggests). I went to this temple near Mysore and prayed like everyone else, asking her to solve my problems. But on my third visit, I lost myself in her kingdom, and had a mystical experience. If you ask me to describe the experience, I cant its like eating a sweet, its difficult to explain its taste, but easy to experience it (smiles). Just like that, at that moment I had the feeling that Im not the body anymore, I am the soul.
Im enjoying the bliss of that experience even now. Im getting deeper and deeper into the domain of soul which is peace, happiness, contentment, tranquility. Nothing disturbs me any more. Im able to take different emotional states at the same level. I have the same love for all beings; power and position have receded to the background.
There is absolutely no conflict with my life as a spiritual guide and as a family person. In fact, I am able to show more love and concern for my family now, whereas previously my work claimed most of my attention. But I have space for everyone in my life now my love is all-inclusive.
Now my goal (if you can call it that) is to bring peace and serenity into the lives of people who come to me. I tell them how to get liberated from thoughts. That is enlightenment a thoughtless state is an enlightened state.
On Religion and Spirituality...
Rites and rituals are an important part of religion. In Sanskrit, each and every letter is a deity each syllable is an encapsulated cosmic energy. Mantras and shlokas, when chanted in a certain manner, connect the atma (individual soul) to the paramatma (divine). But in modern times, people are bored with the overdose of religion, which spells rites and rituals, because nobody has told them of their significance. Thats why religion is equated with dogma these days, and has resulted in factionalism and fragmentation.
Religion is the outer garment, spirituality is the inner garment. Culture is now coming back to spirituality people hanker to feel serene and be in harmony with everything. They want to be left alone. I ask people not to reject religion religion is just to bring in discipline and external harmony a way of setting right the genes so that the offspring will have a purpose in life. Spirituality will bring in internal harmony.
The doctrines of all religions are the same dharma, ahimsa, prema, satya. These are the basic tenets of our sanatana dharma (sanatana: eternal; dharma: principles). No religion preaches an eye for an eye...
Will Power v/s Total Surrender
According to Indian philosophy, one has to surrender to the divine. If you orient yourself to divine will through sadhana and discipline (which could be rites and rituals), then cosmic energy will release its grace you can tap the energy in the overhead tank through your own will power. Mantras have the power to orient your thoughts and make them powerful.
According to karma siddhanta, our free will operates only to the extent of two per cent, whereas fate and destiny control us 98 per cent. But using soul power through firm resolution generates will power which allows you to achieve your goals. Sanatana dharma has several methods to tap the cosmic energy karma yoga, jnana yoga, or ashtanga yoga.
If you have a spiritual bent of mind, you can surrender. But the younger generation needs to be explained about the power of sankalpa or resolution. They should focus on an aim and goal, tap the soul energy and pass it on to thought, which then becomes an arrow, and achieves whatever is willed. When you raise your spirit thus, you shall become what you think. Spirituality will give you the power of discrimination. You need not know what you want; practice meditation, and things will slowly be revealed to you.
On the Importance of a Guru...
A teacher is one who provides general education, and to a certain extent, moral education, to help you get your bread and butter. A guru is one who helps you harmonize your thoughts, helps you comprehend and analyze situations, trains the mind and motivates the soul. A teacher trains the intellect, but a guru trains the soul.
A guru helps you take no for an answer and minimize negativity; helps you to surrender totally to a higher power. Because of our tradition of the gurukula system, dispassion or vairagya is easier achieved in the East than in the West. With no such system in place, Western society is plagued by overindulgence and materialism.
The guru helps you to reclaim yourself minus all your identifications he is the key to open up the treasure of cosmic energy. Have an inner goal, and the guru seeks you when you are ready. It is most beautiful that within 48 days of your sankalpa (resolution), youll find that the guru will knock on the door of your heart. Just as an engine attaches itself to a bogey and pulls the train along, the guru will pull you along the journey of life, and reveal life to you step by step. And the moment the guru seeks you life positive will be converted to life divine! You will find that your thought processes change, and your level of confusion declines.
Surrender yourself to a guru, and your karmas shall burn like a dry stick fed into a fire.
On the Setbacks in Life...
Often, setbacks happen for no fault of ours, maybe because of our past actions and negative thinking. But setbacks are a great opportunity to convert life negative into life positive. This is the time to start seeking answers to the questions What am I doing in life? Why is this happening to me? Who am I? This is a great way of opening up your insight. This is the time to reorganize your inner life, or have an inner life to begin with.
To start with, make a resolution every morning that you shall think noble, hear noble, speak noble, and act noble. This is the beginning of spirituality. When you start your day like this, within 48 days, divinity will be yours. Like air, cosmic vibrations are everywhere. Just as you can feel air when the fan is switched on, youll feel it when you tap it.
Everything starts from a thought. One thought is food for another thought negative thought seeks negativity. Think divine, and divinity will seek you. Stop seeing and start seeking spirituality. You are born with that energy. The human brain is capable of incredible levels of comprehension: computer, space science, chemistry. The grey cells are such powerhouses. Man is fortunate in that he has the three powers of sankalpa shakti (resolution), jnana shakti (knowledge) and kriya shakti (action).
Have a material goal, as well as a spiritual goal. Theres a certain negativity attached to material success, but with an internal goal, you will have peace, happiness, bliss.
My wish for readers of Life Positive is that from now onwards, let them not be mere readers, but become seekers. Reading only gives you information. Let that information lead to reformation and transformation from today. Move from life positive to life divine. That is my wish.

Scarlett O'Connor (Clare Bowen) is getting her first taste of fame on ABC's Nashville(Wednesday, 10/9c), but will the pressure be too much? Last week's episode saw the aspiring singer/songwriter turning to pills to keep her creative juices flowing.
"I think she's coming to the end of her tether, really," Bowen tells TVGuide.com. "She didn't anticipate any of this at all. ... She didn't have any grand ideas of being a performer. She just created things. So the whole thing, it's a big rollercoaster for her."
There's no shortage of unanswered questions to be resolved when Nashville returns onWednesday (10/9c, ABC). Who will live? Who will die? Whose love lives will remain in limbo? Who will find domestic bliss? And what musical collaborations can fans look forward to in the second half of ... read more
If the best songs come from heartbreak, Gunnar Scott (Sam Palladio) should have plenty of hits up his sleeve on Season 2 of Nashville. With his career prospects self-immolated and his marriage proposal to Scarlett (Clare Bowen) turned down, where will Gunnar go from here?
Dust off your cowboy hats. Nashville returns for its second season Wednesday (10/9c, ABC), and there's sure to be no shortage of drama.
Just as Nashville fans were happily embracing Rayna and Deacon's romantic reunion, a major paternity bombshell ripped the pair apart. When the show returns, is there any chance for a reconciliation?
"You will see happy times between the two. They might not necessarily be the happy times that we want, but we'll certainly be working towards more happy times," showrunner Dee Johnson tells TVGuide.com. "They have to work through their relationship and what it means to both of them and hopefully they'll come to some understanding that leads them back to each other."

Sinomhlobo Marwanqa (1996-08-16 / East London)
Emotional Paralysis
The energy I do not have to fight this
Its like a black hole reeking my sense of pride
Its feels like with it I'll never have peace
For the past few days its been taking me for a ride
The spoken word is my only form of releasThe spoken word is my only form of release
The emotion filled liquid can smoothly glidThe emotion filled liquid can smoothly glide.
Dont ask. I have no answers
Dont hide. I have no energy
Dont love me. I have no love
Dont hurt me. I have no tears left
Dont use me. I have no fight left in me
Dont do anything. I have lost everything
Right in the fire
When things were lovely and gooWhen things were lovely and good
My belongings burnt
When things went souWhen things went sour
My life turned to ashes
You are nothing but your life
I am nothing but ashes
All around I am filled with strife
To this glass life adds dasTo this glass life adds dashes
Last time against me it held a knife
They go infront of me too quickly like flasThey go infront of me too quickly like flashes
Propelled to be compelled to switch it off
I am no machinery but I am controlled
I am defenceless for they did maul
I lie. I say I'm fine
Dont dispute that. I have no gut left in me
Dont ask me to breathe. I have none of that left
Dont ask me to live. I do no have him
Foolish enough to still want him
After he has damaged my trust
At this point everything seems so dim
Or maybe I'm driven by lust
Its time I stopped being hateful
We were.
We were greatful.

Hello Good People,
I am making the journey over the hill this Thursday, the 10th if any one would like to re-up on some local food. We are temporarily out of Wild Alaskan Salmon. I exhausted that source and am looking for another sustainable fisher to work with. I sold out of cheese as well over the holiday and haven't had opportunity to replenish that stock yet. I do have plenty of juice, jam, beef, buffalo, elk, lamb, granola, Leroux Creek Spa Skin care and cookbooks for offer.
I have a lot of grass-fed beef stew meat and I have a lot of grass-fed ground beef. The grass-fed ground beef is $5.55 a pound, but I would like to offer that if you buy 5 or more pounds at a time and you can have it for $4.70 a pound. Wahoo! Got Beef?
Lastly, I have been busy over the holidays cooking for people and was remiss in planning and teaching my popular Cooking Workshops. If any of you out there would like a private one-on-one lesson instead, I am parting with all that healthy cooking knowledge in my head for the rest of January and the first week of February. I charge $ 65 an hour
to teach, plus food, and may I say, a few hours tutorial can make a huge difference in your desire to eat healthy and feed yourself and your family.
I am also available for fridge stocking (preparing meals for the week) and small parties! I should be for the most part living in the Roaring Fork this winter until April, with a trip over to Paonia every few weeks to keep that good local food coming our way!
Take care and eat well! Dava

The conference was was so interesting with talks from Peter Nencini, Rick Poyner, Francois Chastanet, Cox & Grusenmeyer and our very own tutor at Camberwell, Fraser Muggeridge. Listening to these practitioners talk all within one day was so invaluable.

A Clear Lake family is feeling a little relief. Christina and Grant Maulsby watched the babysitter who abused their son get handcuffed and arrested in a Florida courtroom on Tuesday.
"It's very challenging. I haven't seen her since that day and my husband had never seen her, so to actually be in the same close vicinity as her I can honestly say my husband and I felt feelings we've never felt before," said Christina.
The woman Christina is talking about is Cherie Landowski, the daycare worker who was looking after their son Quentin when she abused him three years ago while the Maulsby's were living in Florida.
"The rage, the anger, the hurt that somebody would to this to our child kind of all rushed over us," Christina said.
Detectives say that Landowski purpously hit Quentin over the head when he was just 5 months old. And as a result of that abuse, Quentin suffers from permenant brain damage.
"Quentin struggles everyday, he has numerous special needs. He does various therapies throughout the week, definitely not a typical child," said Christina.
Landowski pled no contest to the abuse charge and will serve a 10 year sentence followed by 20 years of probation.
"There was a sense of relief knowing that this woman was no longer walking the streets and able to enjoy life, there was a sense of anger that I can't believe we're sitting here and this is a reality," said Christina.
Landowski will have to serve at least 85 percent of her sentence in Florida before she can get out on good behavior.

Elizabeth Bishop Collection Nudges at Perfection
This roundup of Elizabeth Bishop's slim but sharp poetic output proves that some writers never produce a bad work. That goes for the selection of her prose (including a wonderfully telling reminiscence of Marianne Moore titled "Efforts of Affection") and letters included here. In "The Colder the Air," an early work, she wrote, "We must admire her perfect aim, / this huntress of the winter air / whose level weapon needs no sight, / if it were not that everywhere / her game is sure, her shot is right." And so we admire Bishop herself.

Airline Seat Guide (CNET 100: iPhone Apps)
If you're like me and you're picky about your airline seat, Airline Seat Guide is a good substitute to Web sites like Seatguru.com. It displays full seating maps for aircraft from most major U.S. and foreign airlines with a color code--green is good, yellow is average, red is bad--for finding the best place for your behind. You'll see the leg room (aka pitch) and width of each seat class, and some entries even tell you which rows are missing a window (a particular pet peeve of mine).
Unfortunately, Airline Seat Guide doesn't tell you why a particular seat is bad; you just know that it is. Also, the type of information displayed isn't consistent. But even so, the range of covered aircraft is pretty extensive and I like that the data for the most popular aircraft and airlines is stored directly on the phone. For the less common entries, however, you'll need an Internet connection.

About the Law & Security Program
The Law & Security program defends freedom – freedom that derives from a robust national security that complies with our values, our Constitution and international law. Our priorities:
Prosecuting Terrorism
Federal courts delegitimize would-be terrorists by treating them as criminals, not warriors. Federal courts also legitimize America as a country of laws. Federal courts have convicted 400 terrorists since 9/11. Military commissions have convicted only 6. Federal courts have nearly 225 years of experience, with precedent to guide them. Military commissions are new, and many of the rules remain constitutionally defective. Read more»
Torture and Accountability
Torture is illegal, immoral and counterproductive. Human Rights First helped secure the Executive Order rescinding the Bush torture memos and establish a single standard of humane treatment and interrogation. HRF continues to press for accountability of those who engaged in or condoned torture, as well as remedies for those who faced torture. HRF remains vigilant as opponents continue to press for reinstituting the so-called "enhanced interrogation techniques" that were tantamount to torture. Read more»
Guantanamo remains a powerful recruiting poster for terrorists. It must be closed. Human Rights First has attended every military commission hearing since their inception, providing testament to a system that is rife with constitutional defects. HRF actively opposes legislation in Congress that would thwart the closure of Guantanamo. Read more»
Since our report Fixing Bagram in 2009, the U.S. has agreed to turn over detention operations to Afghan authorities. Human Rights First continues to monitor detention practices and policies closely, traveling to Afghanistan in 2011 and issuing the report Detained and Denied in Afghanistan in 2011. This report details that, even though conditions have improved since 2009, the detention system in Afghanistan continues to fall short of the standards of international law. Read more»
Private Military Contractors
Private security contractors have fallen through the cracks of oversight and accountability. Human Rights First is advocating for greater jurisdictional oversight through the Civilian Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act, through an international multi-stakeholder code of conduct, and targeted litigation support.

Your ignition system is generally the launching spot of any car and fires your engine unit to life each instance you head out for a ride; within the system rests a variety of parts that must all work together to be able to avoid misfires and motor start up delays. To assure proper distribution of electrical current all the time, you should fit a dependable Cadillac Deville spark plug in the assembly; the current shot by the plugs has to be solid enough to generate a spark that can light the pressurized motor gasoline within your cylinder block and start the entire vehicle.
Usually, spark plugs are manufactured with a heat-resistant cable so electric power of high voltages can quickly travel from one point to an electrode where the spark jumps through an opening and toward the waiting engine block. This piece may cease to bring you efficient support as soon as it arrives at around 1,000 miles of usage and any defect may result in motor breakdown or road crashes; for affordable replacements that could certainly meet your spending budget, just check out Parts Train and don't hesitate to explore our vast E3, Karlyn, and OES Genuine Cadillac Deville spark plug inventory.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. They are a credit to your institution
Not really
Placed in a great location - and a little upbeat as a hotel, we really enjoyed the stayAmazing location, amazing room, amazing view, great staff and amenities.
The staff are fantastic. Check in was fast and easy.
Great location. Lovely room. Really appreciated the complimentary drinks.Big rooms, non-alcoholics drinks are free, very nice neighborhood, pestative staff, pool view of the city is amazing
Parking rate
Liked the fact you didn't feel nickel and dimed for the most part. Nice pleasant stay, good beds and pillows plus the roof deck and pool were very comfy.
The television and stereo system were a bit bizarre and cumbersome. Didn't like any of the media in the rooms etc.
The rooftop pool and view.
The service was excellent. I love the modern decor and little touches - artwork, free mini bar etc. The rooftop pool is awesome, the view is fantastic and the bar fabulous. There is plenty of cool stuff to walk to or just a short bus/cab away.Location was fun, room was simple (which I like), bedspread was clean white, snacks and drinks were a nice amenity to offer.
Parking was expensive ($33), was asked to upgrade to get a king bed ($25)!! Pool area closed for a private party so we couldn't even use the pool! And no one told us even though we asked about it at check in. I thought that was duplicitous.
The rooms, pool and lobby are nice but not extraordinary. i was 'looked down upon' because we reserved through Priceline. Person who checked us in didn't know what she was doing.The view.
We loved the room. Our room overlooked the strip which was great for people watching. The bed was very comfortable and the sitting area by the window was great for enjoying the view including downtown LA. The free mini bar (excluding alcohol) was great for us because we dont drink much alcohol. The staff was very nice and friendly, including the valet. Those guys are great, very nice and helpful. The rooftop pool is very nice but I liked view from up there even more. This was our first trip to California and we can't wait to go back. We would definitely stay at Andaz again. They made our stay very relaxing and enjoyable.Staff was superbly helpful! Great rooms, great common spaces, great gym, great location; perfect value for money.

It's hard to say which quote inspires more sense of duty: the one from Ed Quinn, the TW Perry chairman who helped create the Yellow Ribbon Fund; or the one from Jessica Allen, a Yellow Ribbon Fund staffer who helps ease the many burdens of wounded veterans.
Support for the troops runs high in the lumber and building material industry. That's because there's a relatively high percentage of builders and lumberyard workers with military backgrounds -- at least from an anecdotal standpoint.
Another reason is people like Ed Quinn Jr.

I think it's pretty fucking hilarious that people are looking for some sort of meaning or logic in a game made by Cactus. I think you did a wonderful job porting this to flash, surpassing the original by using a legible font.

people these days
you know, i don't get people, just cause they don't understand the game, or find it too difficult or just refuse to see that this game is more then meets the eye, they just rate it down, seriously -_-
oh well, the game rocks, it's one of those rare "original" games that does something other games didn't, good job man, good job ;)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars April 15, 2011
Difficult but fun.
I found the game rather difficult at times but once I got past the hard parts I found it quite fun. I actually though the bee bit was my favourite bit, flying wasn't so hard once you got the basics of it down. I wish it was a little bit longer though. Oh and lol at "I AM THE MAGICIAN!". XD
