Three of five N.M. congressmen cosponsored SOPA and PIPAIn light of today's blackouts, I hit up all of the state's representatives and senators in Washington to get their take on the Stop Online Piracy Act and its twin, the Protect IP Act. Meanwhile, around the country cosponsors are announcing they can no longer support the legislation. But three of New Mexico's delegation have their names signed to the bills. Read on to find out who and why.
There's an existing law, she says, that allows the courts to shut down and Internet site for illegal activity, such as child pornography. But U.S. laws don't have international reach. PIPA requires Google and other search engines to stop linking to illegal sites, she says. Calling it "censorship of the Internet," she notes, is shorthand and creates misunderstanding. But the bill is not without its issues, she acknowledges, and Bingaman is working to make improvements on it before it exits the Senate.

When to Seek Medical CareIt is prudent to see a physician to confirm the diagnosis of psoriasis when the disease begins. The physician can provide helpful suggestions on how to minimize exacerbations of the condition and treatment options. In minimal disease, over-the-counter medications may be sufficient to control the condition. In more severe, extensive, and perhaps debilitating disease, physicians have a variety of treatments that can lessen the manifestations of psoriasis.

Friends of Pulaski Park
"The City of Holyoke has certainly been wise to provide this elevated park commanding views over the Connecticut River. The location and the principal feature of its plan -- a broad promenade following the crest of the bluff -- are excellent."
J.C. Olmsted, in a letter to the city of Holyoke, April 1901
Pulaski Park is a historically significant park located in downtown Holyoke, Massachusetts. Holyoke, known as Paper City, was the first planned industrial city in the country. Though designed initially to power mills, Holyoke's dam and three-level canal system now produce abundant renewable energy. Pulaski Park was designed as a 'promenade park' overlooking the beautiful Connecticut River and the dam.
Friends of Pulaski Park is a park advocacy organization, dedicated to the restoration, preservation and improvement of Pulaski Park for the enjoyment of present and future generations. We collaborate with government, public and private organizations and individuals who care about Pulaski Park.
Support Pulaski Park!
Friends of Pulaski Park is raising money to clear as much of the river view as is allowable by environmental regulations. Being able to see the river from the park was the most requested improvement (83% of respondents) in a survey of park users. The work is very expensive and we really need your help. Please use the 'donate' button below to donate! Friends of Pulaski Park is a 501(c) 3 not for profit, and 100% of your donation is tax deductible.

It's not everyday you can dream up something and someone will make it come true. But that's the job of the staff and volunteers at the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The Central New York Chapter granted 85 wishes this year. Our Iris St. Meran spoke to some of the star honorees about their wishes.
SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- The children in this room proved through their resilience they are shining stars. Thursday night was all about them during the Star Party at Make-A-Wish. This year the foundation granted their wishes.
Diane Kuppermann, Make-A-Wish CNY President & CEO, said, "Kids go to Disney World. We had kids go fly fishing in Wyoming. We had kids go cruises. We have a very special Police Officer here tonight."
That special police officer doesn't patrol the streets.
CJ Mills was sworn into the Syracuse Police Department over the summer in the a special ceremony. He took part in training, roll call and a mock hostage situation. An experience he'll never forget.
"They made me feel happy," CJ said.
During the celebration he and the other stars shared their wishes and then placed their stars on the foundation's Wish Child Honor Wall.
Nine-year-old Mackenzie Kulawy got to meet her favorite singer, American Idol contestant Adam Lambert and watch him in concert.
"I had butterflies in my stomach," said Mackenzie.
Kuppermann said, "The wishes are as unique and individual as the kids. Thanks to our donors and volunteers and incredible community that we live in we can say yes to the kids and their wishes."
Nine-year-old Francesca Chirco is one of those community members. She donated the $13.60 she made from her lemonade stand to continue the work of making children's wishes a reality.
"It doesn't matter how young you are, you can always help out," Francesca said.
And her help will add more stars to the wall, smiles to these children's faces and little inspiration to the lives she will undoubtedly touch because she cared.

You're one step closer to paradise...
Do you talk on your phone and drive? How about text and drive? Or play games on your iPhone while you sit in traffic?
Today, I drove to Lihu'e. It's a 30-mile, round-trip journey that takes me past Kealia Beach—boogie boarders popped in and out of view as the waves rolled ashore. Through downtown Kapa'a—diners lined up outside Mermaid's Café, famous for their ahi nori wraps. My progress slowed a bit as traffic funneled across the Wailua River bridge. That's when I pulled out my phone and started texting.
Yes, I drive and text. But, possibly, not for much longer.
On July 1, 2009, the city and county of Honolulu/O'ahu banned the use of portable electronics, such as cell phones, video games and music players, by drivers of vehicles that have their engines running, and on the first day, the police ticketed 38 drivers in violation of the new law.
I expect my days of texting and driving are numbered. I predict the law will go something like this: First, O'ahu. Then, the state of Hawai'i. (Keep in mind, Kaua'i is not O'ahu. Our "highway" only has two lanes with a max speed limit of 50 mph.)
In the mean time, if you're headed for O'ahu on vacation, tuck your phone in your pocket and pop your Bluetooth in your ear. (And since we're on the topic of multi-task-driving, drop the guidebook, too, and keep both hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.)
Note to self: Stop texting and driving.

Asshat of the Week"All our social policies are based on the fact that their intelligence is the same as ours--whereas all the testing says not really."—Dr. James Watson on Sunday, Oct. 14, referring to his belief that those of African ancestry are inherently less intelligent than those of European descent Watson, who won the 1962 Nobel Prize for his role in discovering the double helix structure of DNA, later apologized for his comments, saying they had no scientific backing, but did not retract them. The uproar over what he said forced him to resign from his position at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in Long Island. (SM) Public Comments |

Pacific Grove, Central Coast, California Vacation Rental
5 bedroom, 2 bath property sleeps 6-7 in 3 Bedroom 1 Bath Main Quarters downstairs and 4-5 in 2 Bedroom 1 Bath Guest Suite upstairs (contracted separately)
Guest Comments
#3343 Walk to Restaurants & Shopping, Beautiful Designer Decor, Pet OK
Welcome to "The Gingerbread House"! Main House:
A touch of Europe prevails in this unique stucco two-story, five-bedroom, two bath home located just four blocks from downtown Pacific Grove and the sparkling blue waters of Monterey Bay. With its pointed-arch roof line and front door, river-rock wall and manicured landscaping, this appealing house combines a sense of tradition with sophisticated style and beach comfort. The large home is divided into two separate areas that can be rented separately or together.
A light-filled second-story two-bedroom guest quarters, with bay views and sunny beach décor, features a cozy combined living/dining room and large old-fashioned kitchen.
The three-bedroom first-floor main house, with its sophisticated Pottery Barn décor, spacious living/dining room and hardwood floors, can sleep up to seven. This is the perfect home for family/friend reunions, wedding guests, golf buddies and girlfriend get togethers, as all the bedrooms have been set up for either single or couples. The two units together can sleep 12 single guests or five couples and two singles.
Upon your arrival you will be greeted by complimentary hors d'oeuvres and wine, passes to the famous Spa on the Plaza in downtown Monterey that has recently undergone a $2 million renovation, Scheid Wine passes and a basket of local information. An assigned concierge vacation house manager is at your disposal to assist you during your stay. We have also provided spa amenities in the bathrooms, plush spa bathrobes, slippers, over-sized towels and beach gear. Pets are allowed on the first floor only.
The first-floor main house, which is 1,700 square feet, features a spacious living room with hardwood floors, sophisticated décor in dark woods and earth colors accented in jewel-tones of blues and greens. Furnishings include a sleigh sofabed that can sleep one, two comfy overstuffed chairs and a large coffee table. A panel of old-fashioned half-paned windows looks out to a manicured front lawn with neatly trimmed shrubs, colorful flowers and well-established trees. On the opposite wall is a 46-inch flat-screen TV with LED, HDL and BluRay DVD. Built-in book cases are filled with inspirational reading material.
A sparkling kitchen, in ocean colors of crisp bright white with royal-blue and turquoise tiles on counter tops and splash-backs, is equipped with an electric stove, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator. A stacking washer/dryer is provided nearby in the bathroom.
The adjacent dining room, with French doors leading out to a small redwood deck equipped with gas grill, has a dark wood rectangular table that can seat eight but expand to seat 12. A tall redwood table and chairs for two situated on the lawn near the deck affords a lovely spot for sipping morning coffee or tea while enjoying the fresh sea breezes.
The master bedroom has a king bed (with Memory Foam topper that can be converted to two twins) and is beautifully decorated with rich dark wood furniture and colors of teal blues and aquamarine greens. A second bedroom likewise has a king that can be converted to two twins. A third smaller bedroom features a trundle bed that can sleep one or two singles or become a king if necessary. All beds have luxury-hotel-quality linens with white sheets, a coordinating white duvet comforter and sophisticated coverlets in vibrant sea tones of turquoise and aquamarine blues.
A full bathroom features mossy- and forest-green tiles around the sink, on the walls and lining the shower-tub.
If the main house and guest quarters are rented individually, then there are separate entrances at opposite sides of the house. If they are rented as one house, then the front door entrance allows easy access to both floors. Easy parking on a safe street.
Guest Suite:
Gaze out into the distance over tree and rooftops to the brilliant blue waters of Monterey Bay from this sunlit second-floor aerie in a lovely traditional house located just four blocks from downtown Pacific Grove.
You will be greeted upon your arrival with complementary hors d'oeuvres and wine, passes to the famous Spa on the Plaza in downtown Monterey that has recently undergone a $2 million renovation, Scheid Wine passes and a basket of local information. An assigned concierge vacation house manager is at your disposal to assist you during your stay. We have also provided spa amenities in the bathrooms, plush spa bathrobes, over-sized towels and beach gear.
The spotless newly renovated 750-square-foot, two-bedroom guest quarters can sleep four-five guests and can be rented together with the first floor of the main house or separately. (Please note that four is the maximum number of guests if rented separately from the main house.)
This light-washed dwelling has a combined living/dining room, two bedrooms, one full bath and a large friendly old-fashioned kitchen with a long white farm type table that doubles as extra counter space or a spot to pull up a stool and converse with the cook.
The décor, with its photographs of playful otters and palette of crisp whites, sandy beiges, and turquoise blues and greens, has a beach-cottage quality that imparts a relaxed, getaway feel.
From your seat on a day couch, you can look up from reading one of the numerous inspirational books provided and watch the clouds drift by over sailboats in the distance on the bay. Enjoy the same expansive view as you take your meals at a round glass-topped dining table and chairs that seat four in the opposite corner.
Should you prefer to be entertained electronically, a 42-inch flat-screen TV with LED, HDL and BluRay is provided. The living room also has a comfortable chaise perfect for reading or watching movies and TV.
The surprisingly large kitchen, with its color scheme of bright and creamy whites, includes an electric stove, microwave and refrigerator (no dishwasher). Built-in cabinetry offers plenty of storage. Alfresco meals can be prepared on a separate gas grill and enjoyed at a wooden table and benches in a nook bordered by a hedge just off the front lawn.
The master bedroom features a king bed with white shutter headboard, Memory Foam topper and highest-quality spa linens. The second bedroom, with a trio of half-paned windows overlooking the front lawn, also features a king with Memory Foam topper and luxurious linens and a built-in chest of drawers. If preferred, the king beds in both rooms can be converted to twins.
The full bathroom, with its recently updated look, features a fresh white tiled floor, cottage-style white vanity sink and a white-tiled tub. You will find vibrant turquoise and white plush terrycloth towels and spa robes that will make you feel totally pampered.
If the main house and guest quarters are rented individually, then there are separate entrances at opposite sides of the house. If they are rented as one house then the front door entrance allows easy access to both floors. Easy parking on a safe street.
Please note that there is no washer and dryer in the upstairs unit.
The many delights of Pacific Grove's quaint city center, including boutiques, shops and a multiplicity of outstanding restaurants, are within easy walking distance, as is the stunning rocky shoreline of Monterey Bay with its pedestrian and bike trail that extends for miles, with the famed Aquarium at one end and Asilomar Beach at the other. The popular destinations of historic Monterey and the artist colony of Carmel-by-the-Sea are 10 minutes away by car.

I've read the Shining and as it's one of his early books I don't know but apprently there are references to Salem's lot? Does anyone know and could someone tell me anymore links it has with any other King book.
I've read the Shining and as it's one of his early books I don't know but apprently there are references to Salem's lot? Does anyone know and could someone tell me anymore links it has with any other King book.
I dunno about Salems Lot, but the cook, Dick Halloran, makes a brief appearance in It during the burning down of the Black Spot (was that the name of the club? Not sure...)
Like Jerusalem's lot, the overlook hotel had a bad history. The lot had Marsden, and the lots residents had quite a few dirty secrets, And the overlook had the bad history with all the gangster/mafia ownership and murders. The Point im trying to make is that the two books involve bad places with bad history/people attracting the supernatural. Thats just my opinion i guess.
Also, you can definitely spot the sense of an It-type sinister creature present in the Overlook in The Shining. I think The Shining was part of the development that led to King's being able to put together the masterpiece, It. I read It this past summer, and read the Shining just recently, and several times when the narration in the Shining referred to the evil presence as an "it," I almost had a flashback.
I have yet to read The Shining. But it is on my Top 10 must reads this winter. Looking forward to it since a lot of people think it's SK most scary book. Looking forward to it.
While reading The Shining I noticed that Jack's dad had called him Jacky Boy, made me think of Travelin' Jack from Talisman.
I don't know anything about about Salem's Lot, I haven't read it, unfortunately. But as far as I remember, there was a brief mention of Overlook hotel in Misery. Although, I've read Misery quite a long time ago, but I suppose it was there that the hotel was referred to. Well, if someone has already mentioned it and I haven't noticed, then excuse me.
You are right Lina, and let me warn whoever didn't read Misery: Don't read it before The Shining, it has a HUGE spoiler from The Shining in it. And to the OP, the future books make this connection happens. For instance: Annie Wilkes from Misery talks about the Overlook Hotel, then years later, some character in Rose Madder is reading a Paul Sheldon book (he's a character from Misery), the book makes a brief comment about a character named Susan Day who appears in Insomnia, that is obviously linked to IT, and Dreamcatcher, and mostly of the others books, and of course with The Dark Tower, in which Father Donald Callaham, a character from 'Salem's Lot appears. So, there is your connection between Salem's and Shining.
Yup, the cook in The Shining might be the same cook seen in IT, at the Black Spot bar, which got burned down.
The "REDRUM" word also appears in a fighting fantasy gamebook by Steve Jackson & Ian Livingstone, titled "House of Hell", where the main character gets trapped inside after a car accident in an old rickety haunted house ruled by Lord Kelnor, the Count. In the cellar, there'z a secret door with can be opened with the password "MURDER". Normally this wouldn't be a reference. However, during the gamebook, the main character needs to talk with a hunchback named Shekou, and give him brandy to ask him about passwords. Shekou tells that the password openin' the secret door in the cellar is something like the house's name, but the letters are all shuffled. And the house is called "Drumer". This just screams for a linking to The Shining.
ALL of Sk's books are somehow related to one another-hence the book "The Stephen King Universe"...these connections are sometimes blatantly in your face-other are much more subtle, but they are always a blast to look for...

NYSNA member Herdley Hill spoke during the July 28 Brooklyn Work Group Public Hearing of the state's Medicaid Redesign Team, advocating for the preservation of hospitals in Brooklyn. Hill, who works at Long Island College Hospital (LICH), urged the work group not to close or merge the community's hospitals, but to invest in and adequately fund Brooklyn's safety net health services. His comments can be heard on the archived copy of the hearing at the New York State Department of Health website. His comments begin at 134:15 on the video.
The work group has been charged with evaluating the health and ongoing viability of Brooklyn's hospitals. The Nurses Association believes that New York City, in general, and Brooklyn, specifically, are already facing a crisis in diminished access to healthcare services.
NYSNA's Economic and General Welfare Program is working with the Save Our Safety Net campaign to preserve and improve healthcare access and quality.
Attached below is an informational flier with details about the 2011 New York City Labor Day Parade, scheduled for Saturday, September 10. You're invited to join NYSNA members and staff for this event, and discover more on how you can help save our community's safety net hospitals.
The New York State Nurses Association is the voice for nursing in the Empire State. With more than 37,000 members, it is New York's largest professional association and union for registered nurses. The association represents registered nurses, and some all-professional bargaining units, in New York and New Jersey. It supports nurses and nursing practice through education, research, legislative advocacy, and collective bargaining.

NEW HAVEN — A Yale professor who was among three Americans who won the Nobel prize for economics said Monday that rising economic inequality in the United States and other countries is the most important problem.
Robert Shiller, known for developing a widely used measure of home prices, was awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Science on Monday. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences honored Shiller and Eugene Fama and Lars Peter Hansen, who are associated with the University of Chicago, "for their empirical analysis of asset prices."

Founded on June 22,1950 the Lombard Jaycees had 15 charter members. The members sold Christmas trees and held social dinner dances to raise funds for their struggling new chapter and to help the community. From those humble beginnings we have grown by leaps and bounds. The Lombard Jaycees currently have close to 60 members and continue to grow from month to month and year to year. We have past members that are officers in the Village of Lombard including the Village President, Village Trustees, and the Park District President.
Over the years the Lombard Jaycees have played an important part in creating some of the traditional events that happen within the Village of Lombard. The Distinguished Service Awards & Man of the Year ceremony is over 60 years old. The Haunted House is the longest consecutively running haunted house in the country and has been scaring the residents for over 40 years, the Taste of Lombard is THE PARTY in the park for the 4th of July and is over 30 years old.
The Lombard Jaycees are fun, caring people who are ages 18-41 that are willing to share their spare time to make the Lombard area a better place to live. At the same time the Jaycees are also working to improve themselves. Some of these improvements are learning organizational, communication, teamwork and leadership skills that can help you advance at work. Jaycees are provided with leadership learning opportunities through hands on experience. This experience is gained through local, state, national and international levels on everything from community projects to guiding Junior Chamber International. True leaders aren't born, they're made.

The District's published communications about the time and date for next week's BoE meeting have been, to say the least, confusing. Is the meeting on Monday, March 3rd or Tuesday, March 3rd, as shared in an email blast to parents? Is it at 6:00 p.m., 6:30 p.m. or 5:00 p.m.?
This communication reads: Tuesday, March 3, 2014 at 6:30:
This one reads Monday, March 3, 2014 at 6:00 p.m.:
Today, when we checked the District's website, we found Monday, March 3, 2014 at 5:00 p.m.
Sadly, this is not an isolated example of confusing communications about dates and times. For weeks we have been trying to catch Liz Fagen's radio show, but that's a hard event to nail down as well.
"Let's Talk Education"–but at what time?
If you read this email, you might tune in on Thursday at 1:00 p.m.
But, if you click on the link, which takes you to the DCSD website, you'll tune in at noon on Thursday.
Maybe, because you're confused about the exact time, you'll click on the link for Velocity Radio. Unfortunately, that's even more confusing because that webpage indicates the show is on from 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. on Thursday.
We once again ask: how many communications directors does DCSD have? How many will it take to get it right?

Those are battle scars. I bought a Sigg in Switzerland before they hit it big over here and traveled around the world with it. Lots of dents and chips. I think stalagmites were growing on the inside by the time I trashed it. I remember running to catch the train to New York one day and it fell out of my bag and rolled onto the tracks. I was able to make a daring rescue the next day.
In college we dropped a Nalgene four floors (empty) onto a linoleum floor. It bounced and didn't break. Then we filled it up with water and dropped it four feet....broke instantly.

Barbecued Chicken with an Apricot GlazeThis is a sauce that's suitable for all meats but particularly chicken drumsticks. One important point is that drumsticks need pre-baking in a pre-heated oven for 15 minutes just before glazing and barbecuing. |
Serves 6 This recipe first appeared in The Delia Collection: Chicken. |
MethodBegin by placing the apricots in a small saucepan with enough water to cover them, then bring them up to simmering point and simmer for 2 minutes. Now drain off the water and, as soon as they're cool enough to handle, slip off the skins (protect your hands with a cloth if they're too hot). Then halve and stone them and place the flesh in a blender or food processor, together with all the other glaze ingredients. Whiz everything to a purée and the sauce is ready. All you do now is arrange the drumsticks in a shallow dish, pour the glaze over them – turning the pieces of chicken so that each one gets a good coating – then cover and leave in a cool place until you're ready to cook. Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 4, 350°F (180°C). When you light the charcoal, pre-cook the chicken drumsticks for 15 minutes, then, when your charcoal is at the right heat, brush the drumsticks with the glaze and cook for about 5 minutes on each side about 3 inches (7.5 cm) from the coals. What we like to do sometimes is scrape any sauce that's left in the dish into a small saucepan, add a glass of white wine to it, and bring it all up to simmering point to give some extra sauce. Serve the barbecued chicken with a crisp salad and some very robust red wine! |

I live a stones throw away, and this would obviously be better for something like a sidewalk or porch vs breaking your back with a shovel. If you've got a long driveway, do yourself a favor and buy a gas-powered blower. |
What you boneheads might want to try is to get out and do a interim clearing when the snow gets a couple of inches deep rather than wait until its over and 8inches deep and go..."Duh..the snow is too deep for this machine"....NO....The "Operator is not deep enough to operate the equipment"
Last edited by DEMFED; 02-27-2013 at 05:10 AM.. |
Man I was looking for this deal when I still had a house and driveway.
Honestly people, a $100 electric blower isn't going to perform to the standards of a $500 gas one. I thought this was common sense? Do people seriously wait (unless it's a daytime storm and you are at work) for the snow to completely stop before shoveling? If the forecast calls for 12" of snow, for gods sake, save your back and shovel the first 6" and then again for the second 6". Do the same for this electric blower and you should be fine. I would rather run this thing 2-3x over my old driveway than wait for the full 1-2 feet and then try to push even a gas blower through that mess... |
Agree with above, unless you have a hefty two stage you need to be out there every six inches. The Toro with the 15 amp is probably the best and most likely the best build quality.
Also if there is a menards in your area I just picked up the Snow Devil 18" 13 Amp blower for $99. Sure it takes a little while to clean the drive but it saves my back when the snow is wet and heavy like it is now. Eventually I would like to find the snowthrower attachment for my old Bolens riding mower but until then this will serve its purpose. |

Berhane Hewan: Supporting Girls in Rural Ethiopia
The goal of Berhane Hewan, which means "Light for Eve" in Amharic, is to establish appropriate and effective mechanisms to protect girls at risk of early marriage and to support adolescent girls who are already married.
I hate early marriage. I was married at an early age and my in-laws forced me to sleep with my husband and he made me suffer all night. After that, whenever it starts to get dark, I get worried, thinking that it will be like that. This is what I hate most.
—Amhara girl, age 11, married at age 5,
first sex at age 9
In the Amhara region of Ethiopia, rates of child marriage are among the highest in the world. Nearly half of all girls in Amhara are married before their 15th birthday. Educational attainment in the region remains low. Berhane Hewan ("Light for Eve" in Amharic) helps girls stay in school and remain unmarried.
Identifying populations in need of support through research (2002–04)
In 2002–03, Population Council researchers conducted in-depth interviews and a quantitative survey of more than 1,800 adolescent boys and girls in rural Amhara region, Ethiopia. The objective of the survey was to identify subgroups of adolescents who were not being reached by current programs and to use research data to design support programs for them. Married adolescent girls were identified as a vulnerable and underserved group.
Amhara girls interviewed described the trauma and isolation of early marriage:
- Early marriage was extremely common, virtually always arranged, and girls had very little foreknowledge of their marriage or their husband. Ninety-five percent of the girls surveyed did not know their husband before marriage, and 85 percent were given no forewarning that they were going to be married.
- Marriage effectively forced girls into having unwanted, uninformed sexual relations with a relative stranger.
- More than two-thirds of married girls reported that they had not yet started menstruating when they had sex for the first time.
- Not surprisingly, many of these marital unions are unstable, and 12 percent of girls in Amhara aged 10–19 already are divorced.
- Girls experienced significant trauma during these transitions as well as social isolation and lack of support following marriage.
Testing strategies to increase the age at marriage and keep girls in school (2004–09)
The Berhane Hewan pilot project was first implemented in late 2004 as a joint project between the Population Council and the former Amhara Regional Bureau of Youth and Sports (ARBOYS), now the Amhara Regional Bureau of Women, Children, and Youth Affairs. The goal was to establish appropriate and effective mechanisms to protect girls at risk of forced early marriage and support girls who were already married.
The program addresses the cultural and economic drivers of early marriage. "Community conversations" were used to encourage communities to discuss child marriage. Families were offered school supplies (US$6 in school supplies for each girl, per year) to address the economic barriers to sending girls to school. In addition, families who kept girls unmarried for the duration of the two-year pilot were awarded a sheep or a goat valued at $20–$25 in a public ceremony. Further, girls who were already married were encouraged to join mentoring groups to address their social isolation and were provided with nonformal education and support to get family planning if they desired.
The evaluation found that girls aged 10–14 in the experimental site were one-tenth as likely to be married at endline, compared to girls in the control site, and three times more likely to be in school. Married girls in the project site were three times more likely to be using family planning methods compared to married girls in the control site. A shortcoming of the evaluation was that it was unable to determine which component of the intervention—community conversations, school supplies, sheep/goats, or the mentoring groups—was most successful.
Identifying and costing critical strategies that impact upon child marriage, schooling and reproductive behavior (2010–15)
With support from USAID, the Population Council and the Amhara Regional Bureau of Women, Children, and Youth Affairs are continuing Berhane Hewan in Amhara region. To determine the most effective strategy to delay early marriage, various interventions are being implemented in different districts, focusing on girls aged 12–17. Components include providing school materials, conditional cash transfers, and community awareness activities through religious leaders and community conversations. The impact of the strategies will be measured through population-based surveys that examine age at marriage, educational participation, and reproductive health behavior. Researchers will also track intervention costs and estimate the cost-effectiveness of approaches.
The Berhane Hewan program is one of the first rigorously evaluated projects with the explicit objective of increasing the age at marriage. The project hosted the first field visit of "The Elders" (Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Dr. Gro Brundtland, and Mrs. Mary Robinson), just prior to the launch of its "Girls, Not Brides" campaign.

Changing transition & title length: Final Cut Pro X
I hope the solution to this is easy cuz it should be! (That word "should" comes up all the time!)
What's my problem? Well, adding a transition and titles is easy; super easy; however, when i want to change the length of the transition or the title, it ends up with some weird numbers. For example, I've now got it as 3 seconds as the default. So let's say I wanna extend it to 6 seconds. Okay, I click and select the transition or title; then I hit Control and D. Fine. Now I can type in the length that I want. So I type in 600 and it shows as 6 seconds; I hit the enter/return key. I give it time to save. I click on it, Control and D and... it's not 6 seconds! It might be something like 9 seconds or 4 seconds! Please tell me there's a simple solution and explanation! Thanks. Last edited by sunandsurf; Dec 6, 2012 at 05:44 AM. |

In a bit of a rush so I'll make this quick. I updated my app to 10.0.6. Not a key issue; why not? Cuz I found out that transitions and titles get "influenced" by stuff around it. By that, I mean if I have a clip that is deemed "too short", the length of a transition can be messed up.
I think it's a weakness of a program that a user can't do anything he/she wants to do but that's another subject. So, what's a guy to do but figure out some work around! Instead of using a fade to color transition, just use a custom generator; create two key points (start and ending) and set opacity at 100% or 0% to create a fade to black or fade from black. Also, I found that inserting a slug is a good way to create a one second black pause before something else happens. Anyway, that's just one way to do what I was trying to do.... ! |

So sorry to hear you are in a rush. So i make it fast. FCP-X is now 10.07.
After putting you title down or any other clips all you got to do is "TRIM" no need to play around. Could tell thee more but time factor. |

Is it possible to use the "trim" function in version 10.0.6?
Thanks for the advice! |

Dec 9, 2012, 02:33 PM | #9 |
Well Sir. I would advice you when you have time to try the function out and see what happens.
I think any person working in this software should be comfortable with all the tools available. |

Hayward Travel Tips
Delight in the Charm of Hayward, Wisconsin
Hayward has a typically small-town atmosphere and many visitors return time and again because of the warm welcome they receive. There are a wide range of resorts and rental homes, some of which are delightful log cabins. Well equipped and cozy, most have a fireplace that you can light up in the cold winter months. Larger homes can cater to families or groups of friends; you'll still have enough space to store your mountain bikes, kayaks, skis and other sporting equipment. Outdoor decks are perfect for enjoying summer evenings star-gazing or socializing with friends. With the wide range of attractions and activities it's nice to have your own Hayward private home, be able to come and go as you please, and enjoy your vacation on your own timetable.
Stay at Hayward Resorts and Join in the Seasonal Festivals and Events
There are several high profile events that put Hayward on the map. When the snow has settled in the wintertime, cross country skiers from all over North America come to participate in the American Birkebeiner Cross Country Ski Marathon at the end of February each year. The event is the largest and one of the most prestigious events on the cross country ski calendar and attracts close to 8,000 skiers to the line-up of events.
In the summer months, you can attend the Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival, a weekend of mountain biking events which are loads of fun. Mud and fun are the order of the day with the serious race happening on the Saturday so that you can enjoy the festivities for the rest of the weekend.
Another entertaining event is the Lumberjack World Championships. Attracting participants from as far afield as New Zealand and Australia, this is a demonstration of brute strength and precision lumberjack skills.
Traveling to Hayward
Hayward is a year-round destination, with more than enough summer and winter activities to keep visitors to Hayward lodging entertained. The closest major commercial airport is Minneapolis, although Hayward does have a small regional airport. There are regional bus and shuttle services. Chauffeur-driven limousines and taxis are also available if you'd prefer private transfers. Many people drive up to Hayward and road access is easy. Located off the main I63, the routes are clearly posted and the roads are well maintained.
Lots to see and do at Hayward Vacation Rentals
Hayward typically attracts visitors that love culture, nature and the outdoors. The miles of mountain trails are open for hiking, mountain biking and horse riding in the summer months. You can spend days out in the mountains looping around on various trails and never get tired of the scenery.
In the wintertime, the area becomes a haven for cross country skiing, snowmobiling and snow shoeing. There are over 600 miles of groomed snowmobile trails and cross country ski routes over varying distances and terrains. Ice fishing can be enjoyed on many of the lakes and when the spring thaw comes, the streams and rivers are superb fishing grounds.
In the spring and fall, the vibrant natural colors create wonderful photographic opportunities. The serenity of the lakes contrasting with the orange hues of autumn make for a picture perfect moment. The spring thaw and bright green new growth that it brings with it are equally enchanting.
Bird-watching can often be combined with a leisurely paddle on the lakes. There are also more than 200 miles of rivers suitable for canoeing. The river systems flow through pristine undeveloped lands, national parks and forests, occasionally emptying out into small swamplands that are a haven for waterfowl.

It could easily be confused with a 14-second stocker with a few exterior mods. However, the four-lug Cobra R replica wheels successfully hide the 777 lb-ft of torque, and the flawless Kona Blue paint should help onlookers realize this car isn't your average Fox. The one-piece headlights feature a Bi-Xenon HID conversion, while the taillights have been smoked—and if you get a good glimpse of them, you've been smoked! The cowl hood and Cobra exterior upgrades are from Cervini's Auto Designs, and a Saleen rear spoiler harkens back to days we wish we could remember.

ALBANY - The Lifetime movie about convicted Capital Region killer, Christopher Porco will air as scheduled this Saturday night.
An attorney for Lifetime Entertainment was in Albany Thursday, fighting for the right to air the movie, after Porco got a temporary restraining order to keep the movie from airing Saturday.
He's convicted in the axe murder of his father and the attempted murder of his mother in their Delmar home 9 years ago.
The judge granted Lifetime attorney's appeal late Thursday afternoon.

Would you rather have a super smartphone or a new Netbook?
Just last week, we got a peek at Nvidia's new line of HD-video-playing processors in downtown Manhattan. One, the Ion, is a GPU that pairs with an Atom processor to give Netbooks gaming and HD-video-playing muscle, coming soon in Netbooks from Lenovo and Samsung.
The other, Tegra, is an all-in-one chip: it has an HD video processor, but it also has an ARM processor, making it an all-in-one computer on a chip that will be put on phone company-branded Netbooks toward the end of the year, according to an Nvidia representative.

Course reviews
+2 votes Cory King › October 26, 2010
Overall a rather nice short technical 10 hole course. Plays in a small hilly park with lots of trees which creates a nice mid range and putter round of golf. Grabbing a few discs and playing a couple rounds is the appeal. Needs some long overdue maintenance and upgrades which could make this a much better course.
+0 votes John Sales › August 5, 2011
I rate this course 2 out of 5 stars.
- Small parking area. Two pavilions with multiple grills.
- Baseball fields on both sides along with a kids' play area
- Two porto-potties, one on each side of the park
- Map on site is very handy and accurate
- Two tees per hole. Note that the majority of the long tees were only marked by a post in the ground. Some of those posts had a hand painted map on them.
- Natural tees are mostly in good condition
- Tee signs help some to keep you ...

Some interesting basket placements and little elevation changes. A fun course to play if already close, good for all skill levels.

It was actually a pretty cool course to play at. Very pretty in the fall when the leaves are falling. There was basically noone there when I went which is whatever. The bad things about this course is the maintenance is terrible. There are no pads, the signs are missing and one basket was even sitting on the ground. but the shots you got to throw were really cool. The multiple amounts of trees makes it really hard to bomb it. I had fun though!
+0 votes Dominic G › November 23, 2012
Not a great course but one of the better "small" courses. I wouldn't go out of my way to play it but if I lived close I could enjoy getting in quick rounds there all the time. Nothing great to say about it but it doesn't have any major drawbacks either.

NEW ALBANY — With its high-powered offense struggling, nobody could have blamed the Mount Vernon 12-year-old all-star team from folding up the tent Tuesday.
The future Yellow Jackets were shut out by Cambridge in the first game of the championship of the District 5 Little League tournament and were barely showing any signs of life in the second.
But, Mount Vernon dug deep, getting a small spark in the fifth inning of Game 2. That spark turned into an inferno as the Jackets scored eight times in the inning and went to claim the District 5 title with a 10-8 victory over Cambridge.
"This was all about the team. Somebody came up big; nobody quit," said Mount Vernon All-Star coach Steve Franko. "After their second home run, we could have packed it in and been run-ruled. But, we held it together and picked up some big runs.
"We finally got it going. We had 10 innings where we basically had not scored. But, everybody kept going after it; we had a couple of things go through and the momentum changed."
Mount Vernon will now play Boardman, the District 2 winner, in the state tournament on Saturday at 3 p.m. at Hamilton.
Cambridge pitcher Austin McKee had shut down Mount Vernon in the first game Tuesday, rolling to a 7-0 victory and forcing a second game.
In the second game, Mason Long was doing pretty much the same thing, holding MV in check.
The Jackets were at least able to squeeze out a few hits against Long, but had left five runners in scoring position in the first four innings.
Nate Orr, who had four singles in Game 2, provided the initial spark for the Jackets. He singled and moved up on walks to Drew Hedrick and Ashton Spurgeon. The Squatches changed pitchers (Jacob Lyons) and the MV spark turned hot quickly. Gerrit Franko was hit by a pitch and Kaden Daniels blasted a sharp triple up the middle to plate all three runners. Cambridge went to another pitcher, Koby Berger, but he wasn't able to silence the MV bats either.
MV got singles from Dustin Hess, Orr, Marcus Shellenbarger and Spurgeon, as well as walks by Jeffrey Rucker and Hedrick, to score eight times in the inning.

904cc, 80bhp, 140mph, Insurance group 14
Real retro sports motorcycle that was outdated when new. If you're after all-out speed, practicality or reliability look elsewhere. If you want old school charm, a great twin cylinder sound track, stunning looks and handling to surprise the odd modern motorcycle the Ducati 900SS is worth a look.
618cc, 60bhp, 125mph, Insurance group 11
Cosmetic and engine update from the long running SS family of sports-retro Ducatis. The entry level Ducati 620 Sport was never a big seller and wasn't on offer for long. It's not that fast or comfy but it handles well. Afflicted by the traditional Italian glitches but a cheap way into Ducati motorcycle ownership.
992cc, 84bhp, 134mph, Insurance group 14
It's difficult to pigeonhole the Ducati 1000SS. It's definitely no full-on sports motorcycle, but you couldn't really claim to tour on it, either. It's hugely charming, but is not really the sort of motorcycle to thrash. Best not to worry about all that and simply revel in the Ducati 1000SS' easy handling, V-twin soundtrack and retro looks.
748cc, 103bhp, 150mph, Insurance group 16
The Ducati 748 is nearly identical to the iconic Ducati 916 but with a smaller engine (and narrower rear wheel). That means sublime handling on smooth surfaces, terrible comfort, high running costs and a feel-good experience most other motorcycle can't touch. Even well over a decade on few motorcycles match the simple, gorgeous curves of the Ducati 748.
