[JURIST] US District Judge Reggie Walton [official profile] ruled [opinion, PDF] Thursday against allowing the testimony of memory experts in the CIA leak trial [JURIST news archive] of former White House aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby [defense profile; JURIST news archive]. Libby, charged [text, PDF; JURIST report] last year with perjury and obstruction of justice, blames faulty memory for the false statements made to investigators regarding his conversations with members of the press about former CIA operative Valerie Plame [JURIST news archive]. Plames identity was revealed days after her husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, criticized the Bush administration's pre-Iraq war intelligence. Libby sought to use memory experts [JURIST report] to show that he innocently mis-remembered facts, and did not intentionally misrepresent his knowledge of the leak. Walton found that the defense failed to conclusively show that the memory testimony would be helpful to the jury, but instead could potentially mislead and confuse them. He said the theories on memory advanced by the defense were common sense, and that "the Court has no doubt that aided by the normal trial processes, and the assistance of very capable legal counsel, the jurors will have the ability to collectively draw upon their common-sense understanding of memory and render a fair and just verdict." Last week special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald [official website; JURIST news archive] grilled a psychologist called by the defense to convince Walton to allow the testimony, challenging the validity of memory research [JURIST report], and dissecting her work until she eventually admitted some errors and misstatements.

[JURIST] The US Marshals Service [official website] captured over 10,000 fugitives last week, the largest number apprehended in a single enforcement effort in US history, US Attorney General Alberto Gonzales announced Thursday. During the press conference [transcript], Gonzales said that the nationwide sweep, entitled Operation FALCON III [US Marshals backgrounder], "has broken all US Marshals records for the number of fugitives, sex offenders, and gang members arrested in one week," culminating in the arrest of some "1,600 sex offenders - 971 of whom were unregistered - and 360 gang members."The operation took place in 49 US districts throughout 24 states and was similar to enforcement efforts that took place in April 2006 and April 2005 [DOJ press releases; JURIST report]. The US Department of Justice and the US Marshals Service partnered with other US agencies to implement the effort, including the US State Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. AP has more.
[JURIST] Human Rights Watch (HRW) [advocacy website] Thursday accused the British government of encouraging torture in a new report [text; summary]. HRW slammed the government of Prime Minister Tony Blair for attempting to lead evidence gained through torture [JURIST report] in court cases; for trying to deport terrorist suspects [JURIST report] to countries known for torture; and for failing to condemn the US for its own alleged use of torture [JURIST report]. In this last respect the report concluded:
This determination not to speak out, nor publicly to press Washington with difficult questions, made it easier for the US to continue this abusive practice. International pressure, together with decisions by the US Supreme Court, helped prompt the White House's September 2006 admission [of secret CIA detention centers]. But Britain has repeatedly avoided opportunities to exert such pressure, and even moved to prevent criticism by others of US secret detention facilities, where torture is known to have been carried out.
[JURIST] The German Federal Court of Justice [official website] ruled [press release, in German] Thursday that because the country was not directly involved in the 1999 NATO bombings that killed 10 Serbs [CNN report] and injured 30, it is not obligated to compensate victims. The 35 Serbs who brought the case against Germany [JURIST news archive], a member of NATO [official website], however, argued that the country could have used its veto power to prevent the air strikes [BBC backgrounder].The attack, on May 30, 1999, was part of NATO's campaign to drive Serb forces out of Kosovo [JURIST news archive]. The court also ruled that German law allows for compensation between states, but not for compensation between states and individuals. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] The Center for Digital Democracy and the US Public Interest Research Group [advocacy websites] have filed a 50-page complaint [PDF text; press release] with the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) asking it to look into allegedly "deceptive and unfair" advertising practices of Internet companies [CDD backgrounder], including web giants Microsoft, Google, and Yahoo! [corporate websites]. The consumer advocacy groups claim that current privacy protections mandated by the FTC [official website] are inadequate and that advertising practices "aggressively track us wherever we go, creating data profiles to be used in ever-more sophisticated and personalized 'one-to-one' targeting schemes." The complaint further maintains that "the FTC has largely ignored the critical developments of the electronic marketplace that have placed the privacy of every American at risk." A Google spokesperson told the Washington Post that "the idea that trust of the user is paramount" is key in development of new advertising mechanisms. The Washington Post has more.
[JURIST] Former Computer Associates [corporate website] CEO Sanjay Kumar [Wikipedia profile] received a 12-year prison sentence and an $8 million fine Thursday after pleading guilty in April to charges [press release; JURIST report] of securities fraud and obstruction of justice for his role in the company's revenue-swapping of $2.2 billion with another company in 1999 and 2000. Though Kumar could have faced a life sentence under federal sentencing guidelines, US District Judge Leo Glasser said that was unreasonable. Glasser noted , however, that Kumar "did violence to the legitimate expectations of shareholders."In June, the company's senior vice president Thomas Bennett also pleaded guilty [JURIST report] to obstruction of justice charges. Former sales chief Stephen Richards also entered a guilty plea to several charges at the same time Kumar pleaded guilty. AP has more.
[JURIST] Australian Guantanamo Bay detainee David Hicks [JURIST news archives] has refused to meet with Australian consular officials in order to avoid punishment by US guards, his lawyer has told an Australian Senate panel. The lawyer said that Hicks believes he has been punished after previously complaining about his treatment at the US prison camp, but the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs [official website] said it did not know of any refusal by Hicks to meet with Australian officials. Hicks allegedly refused to meet with the Australian Consul-General to the US in September, but Australian officials said Hicks did not offer a reason for his refusal. In October, Australia's justice minister denounced Hicks' five-year detention [JURIST report] without trial in Australia's boldest official statement in months concerning the Guantanamo prisoner. Hicks was taken to Guantanamo Bay after he was captured in Afghanistan, where he allegedly had been fighting with the Taliban. Hicks faces trial under the new Military Commissions Act [text, PDF; JURIST report]. His defense lawyers recently said they plan to challenge the act as unconstitutional [JURIST report]. Australia's ABC News has more.
[JURIST] Ohio absentee voters must continue to show proof of ID when applying for an absentee ballot, but absentee ballots already obtained without ID will still be counted after a settlement [PDF text] was reached Wednesday between the state and groups opposed to Ohio's voter ID law [Ohio SOS backgrounder]. The settlement, reached in a federal lawsuit [PDF complaint] challenging the Ohio law, also allows voters who go to the polls in person next week to provide Social Security numbers, ID cards from county or local governments and university IDs instead of government-issued identification cards. A federal appeals court on Sunday stayed [order, PDF; opinion, PDF; JURIST report] a lower court order [JURIST report] that would have temporarily suspended Ohio's voter ID law. The US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit [court website] granted Ohio Attorney General Jim Petro's request for a stay in the case, effectively overruling the district court's temporary restraining order [PDF text]. Wednesday's settlement means the parties will not appear before US District Judge Algenon Marbley to determine whether people voting in Tuesday's election must show ID; last week's decision applied only to absentee ballots. AP has more. The Columbus Dispatch has local coverage.
[JURIST] UK Information Commissioner Richard Thomas [official website] on Thursday warned that Britain is becoming a "surveillance society" [press release], where the daily lives of citizens are increasingly monitored and privacy is being gradually - if often imperceptibly - eroded. He said governmental, commercial and even private surveillance activities, however ostensibly benign, may have serious social side-effects:
[U]nseen, uncontrolled or excessive surveillance can foster a climate of suspicion and undermine trust...As ever-more information is collected, shared and used, it intrudes into our private space and leads to decisions which directly influence people's lives. Mistakes can also easily be made with serious consequences - false matches and other cases of mistaken identity, inaccurate facts or inferences, suspicions taken as reality and breaches of security
[JURIST] The retrial of two British National Party (BNP) [party website; BBC profile] officials on charges of inciting racial hatred began Wednesday in the UK, with hundreds of supporters protesting outside the Leeds Crown Court. BNP leader Nick Griffin [Wikipedia profile] and senior aide Mark Collett face two race hate charges based on speeches in West Yorkshire in 2004, taped by the BBC, that showed Griffin calling Islam a "wicked, vicious faith" and Collett referring to those seeking asylum as "a little bit like cockroaches." Griffin insists the speeches are legitimate political dialogue [BNP backgrounder, PDF; Griffin trial blog]. In February, the two men were cleared of similar charges of inciting racial hatred, but the jury failed to reach a verdict on all charges [BBC report], leading to a second trial.The British National Party, formed in 1982, requires that all members must be of British or kindred European ethnic descent [BNP membership materials]. It has called for an immediate stop to all non-white immigration to the UK and for the voluntary resettlement of non-whites to the lands of their ethnic origin. The party has failed to garner widespread support, winning only thirty-three council seats [list, PDF] nationwide in May's local elections. AP has more.
[JURIST] Thai interim Prime Minister Chulanont Surayud [official website; BBC profile] Thursday promised to investigate allegations of human rights violations by the government of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra [BBC profile]. Speaking to Muslim leaders in the southern Pattani province, Surayud apologized for the former government's crackdown on an Islamic insurgency in the country's southern region and said the government will allow a limited use of Islamic Law in such cases as inheritance and family disputes. Nearly 2,000 people have died in sectarian violence in the Muslim-dominated provinces of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat since 2004. The Thai military seized power from Thaksin in a bloodless coup [JURIST report] in September and has imposed martial law [JURIST report] in the country. Surayud has said that the Thai government will maintain martial law until Thaksin supporters quell their protests [JURIST report]. Last week, Army Chief Gen. Sonthi Boonyaratglin [BBC profile], who led the coup, admitted that investigators are struggling to find evidence of corruption [JURIST report], the reason given for Thaksin's overthrow. AP has more. The Bangkok Post has local coverage.
[JURIST] The United States is violating its universal human rights obligations by its failure to protect millions of illegal immigrant workers from exploitation and discrimination in the workplace, according to a petition [PDF text; press release] filed with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) [official website] Wednesday. The petition was filed by the American Civil Liberties Union, the National Employment Law Project [advocacy websites] and the Transnational Legal Clinic at the University of Pennsylvania School of Law with the IACHR on behalf of the United Mine Workers of America, the AFL-CIO, Interfaith Justice Network [group websites] and six immigrant workers [descriptions of petitioners, PDF] in order to draw attention to the six million illegal immigrants who make up nearly five percent of the US labor force. Announcing the petition, ACLU attorney Claudia Flores said:
The most poorly paid and least desirable jobs in the United States are filled by undocumented immigrants, yet the government increasingly limits the safeguards available to this population, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation and workplace discrimination. The United States government has an obligation under universal human rights norms to protect vulnerable populations, such as immigrant women, and has failed in this regard.
[JURIST] Germany's Federal Constitutional Court [official website, in German] has refused to rule on whether the European Constitution [official website] conforms with the German Constitution until a final decision on its ratification has been made. The German parliament ratified the document last year, but German President Horst Koehler [official website, in German] refused to approve the ratification until the court issued its decision in the case, in which German MP Peter Gauweiler argued that the European document represents an usurpation of the German parliament's powers. The German court, however, ruled Tuesday that the issue was not a priority and deferred its decision until Europe reaches consensus on the document, saying that it didn't want to interfere in the political process [DPA report]. German Chancellor Angela Merkel [official website, in German; BBC profile] has initially said that when Germany takes over the European Union presidency in January 2007, she plans to revive [JURIST report] the European constitution [JURIST news archive] ratification process. In June, Merkel stated that attempts to revive the European Constitution will be delayed until 2008 [JURIST report] and won't occur during Germany's six-month presidency of the European Council as Germany had hoped. European foreign ministers in May said there was little hope [JURIST report] that Germany would be able to achieve substantial progress on ratifying the document during its presidency in the first half of 2007.Although the EU Constitution requires ratification by all member states, it was rejected by French and Dutch referendums [JURIST reports] in 2005 and ratified by only 14 member states. If enacted, the European Constitution would streamline voting procedure on EU laws, provide for an official EU foreign minister, grant new substantive oversight powers to the European Parliament [official website], create a bill of fundamental rights, and transfer new police and immigration powers to the European Union [official website]. EUobserver.com has more. Die Welt has additional coverage, in German.
[JURIST] Lawyers representing detainees held in the US prison camp at Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] Wednesday petitioned [brief, PDF; second brief, PDF] the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to declare a portion of the Military Commissions Act of 2006 (MCA) [PDF text; JURIST news archive] unconstitutional. A key provision in the act, which was signed into law [JURIST report] by US President George Bush last month, strips US courts of jurisdiction to consider writs of habeas corpus filed by detainees who are detained as enemy combatants [JURIST news archive]. The lawyers argued that the MCA as written still permits detainees who have not been charged to pursue habeas claims and that the US Constitution gives prisoners the right to challenge their detentions in civil court. After the measure was signed, the US Justice Department sent letters [JURIST report] to the DC district and appeals courts, notifying the lower court that it no longer had jurisdiction over some 200 pending cases filed by Guantanamo detainees, and urging the appeals court to reach the merits on two cases currently on its docket in light of the MCA. Wednesday's briefs were filed in the two appeals court cases. Reuters has more.Joining in the challenge Wednesday were seven retired federal judges who in an amicus brief urged [brief, PDF] the appeals court to rule that portions of the MCA violate the Constitution. Judges from both political parties said the MCA's prevention of civil courts from hearing cases brought by uncharged detainees "challenges the integrity of our judicial system." The seven also said the Act does not adequately prevent the military's use of torture [JURIST news archive] since there is no "check" on suspect methods of interrogation without prisoners having the opportunity to use the courts to challenge alleged torture. The Bush administration has until November 13 to respond in the cases, which are expected to eventually reach the US Supreme Court. The high court previously ruled that the commissions, as initially constituted, lacked proper legal authorization [JURIST report], a decision that prompted the new legislation. AP has more. SCOTUSblog has additional coverage.
[JURIST] US Army Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez [Wikipedia profile] retired from the military Wednesday saying he was "forced" to leave [Monitor report] because of the Abu Ghraib prison scandal [JURIST news archive] which occurred during his tenure as the commander of all US forces in Iraq. In an interview with the McAllen, Texas Monitor, Sanchez, who served in the Army for 33 years, said he retired because he was not given a comparable position upon his return from Iraq. He was once considered to take over the US Southern Command [official website], which has responsibility for the US prison base in Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive], but was rejected for the position after the situation at Abu Ghraib made international news.While he was commander of the Army V Corps [GlobalSecurity backgrounder] in 2003, Sanchez wrote three memos that called for harsher interrogation methods [JURIST report] including the use of dogs [JURIST report], sleep deprivation, and stress positions, but only with written approval. During court-martial proceedings for several Abu Ghraib dog handlers convicted of abusing detainees, Col. Thomas Pappas [Wikipedia profile], the senior officer running Abu Ghraib's interrogation center, testified that he was confused by the changing rules for interrogation. In 2005, US Army Inspector General Lt. Gen. Stanley Green determined that criminal accusations against Sanchez were unsubstantiated [JURIST report]. AP has more.

The manufacturing of cement requires a lot of energy, cement plants use several forms of energy, like coal, some use natural gas, and some also burn things like hazardous waste and tires. Cement plants are the 3rd largest emitter of mercury emissions. Mercury isn't the only thing coming out of the stacks at cement plants, they also give off things like sulfur dioxide, dioxins, and more.
I live just over two miles away from a cement plant that burns tires and other toxic things. They are classified as a high priority violator of the Clean Air Act by the EPA. Yet with many things made of concrete being marketed as green and the plant itself telling everyone it's green, it's an issue that is being overlooked. This cement plant even says it's recycling tires when it burns them for fuel and they say they are committed to environmental issues, they chair the local green committee and are sponsoring a green expo. All while polluting our air at an alarming rate.
Many people think I want to shut down the cement plant near me but that's not the case. If the one by me shut down they would have to make more cement somewhere else to meet demand and would just end up polluting another town. Cement can be made in a greener way but many of the cement companies don't want to invest in newer technology or even follow current laws as it cuts into profits. The way the law is now the fines often are smaller than what the company makes from breaking the law.
This issue is why when deciding if a product is eco-friendly or not, we must look at the manufacturing as well as the finished product. No product is perfect but we have to try and make informed choices. If you want to see how close you are to a cement plant check out Earthjustice's interactive cement kiln map.

Nando's Peri-Peri
Even though Portuguese explorers couldn't pronounce the Swahili name for the African bird's eye chili—pili-pili—the sailors fully embraced its flavor shortly after landing in the region known today as Mozambique. Intrigued by the small, fiery pepper, they combined it with aromatic doses of herbs, garlic, and lemon to create the first peri-peri sauce. That sauce eventually became a wildly popular marinade for poultry, and the tasty concoction made its way to South Africa over the next several centuries. There, in 1987, two friends decided to honor this culinary legacy by founding the first Nando's Peri-Peri restaurant. The eatery continued to remain true to its South African roots, even while expanding to encompass locations in 24 countries across four continents.
Beginning with fresh chickens that never see the inside of a kitchen freezer, the chefs furtively marinate the birds in a secret peri-peri sauce for 24 hours before grilling them over an open flame. Diners dictate the heat level of their order, requesting that the grilled chicken arrive relatively mild or that wings be slathered with even more incendiary spices. The succulent chicken can be plated with hearty side dishes—such as Portuguese-style rice with herbs and peppers or peas with mint—or served in the form of a sandwich, wrap, or pita. To complement the menus' African flavors, Nando's worldwide locations collectively feature more than 4,000 pieces of African artwork.

Apparently, this bit of news has become the talk of Argentina:
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) -- Reports that an agile Argentine thief snatched the purse of one of the twin daughters of President Bush while U.S. Secret Service agents were nearby had local media in a buzz Wednesday.
"Bush's bodyguards couldn't handle San Telmo purse-snatcher," read a headline on the Web site of official news agency Telam.
Telam said a government source, who asked not to be named, confirmed reports regarding the robbery. Different local reports said the incident happened on Sunday or Monday.
A law enforcement source briefed on the incident told CNN that Barbara Bush's purse was stolen while she was in Argentina with her twin sister, Jenna. But the source said that "at no point were the protectees out of visual contact and at no point was there any risk of harm." Barbara Bush, 24, who has the same name as her grandmother, the former first lady, was in a restaurant in the San Telmo neighborhood when her purse was taken, Telam reported.It was not clear whether she was wearing her purse at the time of the theft or whether she was in an open-air restaurant or indoors.
Radio and television reporters flocked to the main square in the historic neighborhood -- known for its outdoor restaurants and tango performances -- trying in vain to find out in which restaurant the purse had disappeared.
First question: where the hell was the Secret Service? Second, I wonder if the thief had any idea that he was about the steal a purse from one of the daughters of the leader of the free world? Lastly, when did young Barbara become hotter than her twin sister Jenna?

I have no problem with my Rugers....
I totally agree with the post here.I've had my LCP for a few months now.Took it to the range when I first got it and fired a hundred or so rounds through it.No errors what so ever.I got mine "after" the fix.
The recall was on the pistol possibly firing if dropped on a hard surface.I thought this to be dumb,until Mr. Columbo,me,accidently knocked mine off the little table next to the bed.It landed on a
hardwood tile floor.The gun didn't go off.I have complete faith in my LCP.The big guns are built stout and the ones I,ve fired are brutes.Ruger makes a fine weapon.
I have no problem with my Rugers....
When I first started shooting hammer blocks were new and not on all pistols or revolvers--and certainly not on any older ones. Is it a defect? It is a defect like leaving the seat belts off of a new car is a defect.
A girl friend of mine complained once that new cars are not nearly as good as the old ones her father used to buy. Her reasoning was when she was a kid they never used to have recalls at all.
No, there were no recalls. The bean counters would say, "How much will it cost us in lawsuits if, say 200 people get killed because of this defect? And how much will it cost to fix the defect?" If the cost to fix was higher than the predicted lawsuits then they would just let the 200 or so people die.
Ruger is making a voluntary recall. Here is the notice: Ruger - LCP Product Safety Warning and Recall Notice
It seems like they are behaving well. It is important that the manufacturer be more worried about the defect than the consumer. In that way it will always to the right thing.
I wouldn't carry my sr9 or my lcp if I didn't have total confidence in them. I have never had a problem w/ either of them.
I've owned my LCP for over a year now and I have had NO problems with it or any Ruger product.
I have posted here last August and at that time I own only 2 Ruger products. Now I own 10
There were re-calls, but I truly believe that Ruger now has some GREAT products and the issues in the past were part of the expansion a couple of years ago.
A true and proud Ruger owner.
I do like my Rugers.....Just bought the LC9 and I like it....
Yes, it is a great pocket pistol and very reliable, I have put many rounds through it and rarely had any problems. As long as you use it for what it is intended for you cant go wrong(pocket pistol, not a target pistol or primary carry). I also added crimson trace laser and it works great, a can literally shoot from the hip, makes for a quick response to a close up threat, just paint the target with the laser.
Love my LCP carry it daily as primary or back up but traded the LC9. No reliablty issues just could not get use to the trigger.
I looked at the LCP 380 and couldn't say it jumped out at me as something I have to have.......So I bought a much larger Kimber Ultra Carry stainless 45 auto......Love that gun ....but after reading this thread I am going to pick up a Ruger 380 just for kicks. Sounds like you all think pretty highly of it and I can use it for a summer carry
LCP in the pocket...
PM9 in the pants ...
XD 45 on the belt ...
I carry the P95.....love everything about it. A friend has the LCP.....way to small for me. Never shot one....but wonder just how accurate it could be bechause it is so small.
This could be said about any choice.Ruger is just responding to avoid a lawsuit happy individual that is careless.I watched a history show about Wyatt Earp where he sat in a saloon and his pistol slid out and discharged.Only damage was his coat but it can happen to the best.1911 carried cocked and locked scare alot of people but I feel safe doing it.It is about being responsible in your handling.
A good pistol is a good pistol. After that, it is all about shot placement. Practice shot placement with the pistol of your choice.
An eyeball shot with a .22 cal. is better than a miss with a .45 cal. any day of the week. IMO, of course.
Interesting, that you had that experience. I have the LCP and the LC9 and I feel like the triggers are almost the same. I have to adjust for the trigger if I shoot my Glock 26 and then my LC9, due to the difference between the two pistols. But, when I shoot my LCP and then my LC9 the only differences I notice is the LC9 has a better grip and better sites. I still like the LCP and think it is fun to shoot, just isn't as comfortable as the larger pistols.
You won't be disappointed with the LCR in any caliber. My girlfriend has 2 of them. One in 38 Special which she bought, and one in 22. Even though I reload for both of us, it was getting hard to keep up as we were shooting 2000 rounds a month. So I bought her the 22. The 22 is dirt cheap to practice with, and it's exactly the same as the 38. I've shot them both extensively. They're reliable as dirt, butter smooth trigger, and accurate as all heck. Go to youtube and do a search for them and you will find a ton of reviews on them in every caliber. On youtube, Hickok45 is nailing a gong at 80 yards with the LCR 38. I shot a 1" group from a rest at 20 yards with it. Do the youtube thing ! ! ! ! !
Don <><
I purchased an LCP a few years after the recall. Never had a problem. Nice little gun.

W.S.Well u should avoid 2 much of interaction because too much of interactionare opening gateways for haraam things, mmoreover Allah forbids marrying unbelieving women until she believes in ch 2 v 221, Allah says in ch 5 v 72-those who regard Jesus (pbuh) as God r commiting shirk.so brother I m not saying that u shud defriend her because u don't know when u or her need help but keep in mind don't advance too much.

According to me you can make any one your friend if he/she is good of nature and care for you. And the religion should not come between the friendship. It should be demand free. If you break your friendship only for your religion I think you are going out from humanity.
If point comes about wedding, I think Islamic man can marry with woman of monotheistic religions , i.e Jewish, christian with some formalities of religion change. Edited by herber345 - 15 December 2013 at 11:00pm |

Fellowship Donation Form
AACP, ACCP, and President-elect J. Lyle Bootman, Ph.D., announce a newly created fellowship. The pharmacy academy and the wider pharmacy community can now make a significant impact on the work of the esteemed Institute of Medicine through this fellowship.
This is part of a broader fellowship program created to honor IOM's 35th anniversary by enabling talented, early-career health science scholars to participate actively in IOM initiatives and further their careers as future leaders in our field.
The program details include:
The first fellow will begin the program in October 2012.
AACP and ACCP are endowing the fellowship with contributions of $150,000 per organization. A generous gift from the Research Corporation Technology, Inc in honor of Dr. Bootman provides additional support. To fully endow the fund and launch the 2012 inaugural fellowship an additional $275,000 must be raised from individuals and organizations.
AACP and ACCP invite you to help us bring a rising star to the IOM as the inaugural Pharmacy Fellow.
With October right around the corner, we're moving with great enthusiasm and speed to develop funding as we solicit nominations for our first fellow. Please consider supporting this important effort.
The benefits of this fellowship are enormous—mainly, we have the opportunity to strengthen the IOM's focus on critical pharmacy issues. As you consider a donation, please know that we will match our gratitude with recognition of your support in various communications related to this fellowship. Thank you!
The IOM Anniversary Pharmacy Fellowship will provide an exceptional opportunity for early career scholars to experience the work of the IOM. The IOM brings together the most eminent researchers, policy experts and clinicians from across the country to work together to provide nonpartisan, scientific and evidence-based advice to national, state and local policymakers; academic leaders; healthcare administrators; and the public. This Fellowship builds on a program created to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the IOM's establishment and will enable select early career health policy or health science scholars in pharmacy to participate actively in the work of the IOM and to further their careers as future leaders in the field. Each Fellowship will be awarded for a two-year period. During this time, Fellows are expected to continue their work at their main post while being assigned to a board of the IOM. The boards are:
The Fellowship requires a 10-20 percent commitment of time for two years and includes attendance at a one-week orientation to health policy in October, the Fall IOM Annual Meeting, and the meetings of the assigned board. Additionally, Fellows will participate actively in the work of an appropriate expert study committee or roundtable, including contributing to its reports or other products.
This experience will introduce Fellows to a variety of experts and perspectives, including legislators, government officials, industry leaders, executives of voluntary health organizations, scientists and other health professionals. Each Fellow will be assigned to an IOM member who will serve as a senior mentor during the two years of the fellowship.
Each Pharmacy Fellow will be asked to designate a tax exempt institution, which shall receive an unrestricted award of $25,000, with an expressed preference that the award be used to advance the Fellow's professional and academic career in so far as it is practical to do. The stipend will be administered through the appropriate department in the Fellow's home institution.
Nominees for the IOM Fellowship must meet the following requirements:
Preference will be given to candidates who have a demonstrated interest in and focus on healthcare quality or health services.
All materials should be sent to Dr. Lucinda L. Maine, AACP Executive Vice President and CEO, or Michael Maddux, ACCP Executive Director, no later than June 29, 2012.

I dislike Annabel, though I know I'm in the minority. Anastasia feels like a totally different name to me, not a variant of Ann (and it reminds me of Cinderella's mean sister). And Ann does combine well with other names. You could do compounds or hyphens (Annemarie or Anne-Marie).
But I really love the idea of Anna _______ with the nickname Nina. Nina even isn't too nick-namey, so she won't grow out of it. The family tradition continues, but she gets something distinct to her. Great idea!
April 18th, 2013 01:16 PM #10
I love Anna, but I'm going to suggest you to use the variation instead. Or use it as a middle name. It's just your family already have too many Anna/Anne/Ana. And if you use Anna, you and your daughter will have an exactly same name, correct? I don't know the other people, but for me it can be troublesome.
I second I Annika nn Nina, btw.Call me Cynthia, Angie, or Luna.

Motorola still has some issues
Motorola Mobility isn't quite in the clear yet.
That's the opinion of RBC Capital analyst Mark Sue, who says there are still a lot of issues surrounding the manufacturer of handsets and television set-top boxes. His biggest complaints: a slow move into the white-hot 4G LTE segment, too little product diversification at major customers Verizon Wireless and AT&T, and a slow product-development cycle.
Delays in Motorola's LTE devices and its reliance on an aging product portfolio may be contributing to market share losses within the growing Android ecosystem," he said in a research note … Read more

Pogoplug Video recalled for overheating, catching on fire
If you own Cloud Engines' Pogoplug Video, please pay attention to this product recall.
Cloud Engines, makers of the Pogoplug series of products, announced a recall of its most recent Pogoplug Video--a device we've been testing here at CNET. According to an e-mail sent last night, all Pogoplug Video units (Pogo-11, -12, -13, and -14) are susceptible to overheating and, in at least one reported case, erupting in actual flames.
Owners of the Pogoplug Video are urged to unplug any hard drives and turn off the devices immediately. (Update/correction: Cloud Engines is currently asking that owners collect proof of purchase and await further instructions on the return process.)
The recall is only for the Pogoplug Video, and not the Pogoplug or Pogoplug Biz. We'd advise you to check your Pogoplug and its box to make sure whether you own one, since many Pogoplug products look nearly identical.
Recall information can be found at Pogoplug's blog, or by e-mailing firstname.lastname@example.com. We did notice that our Pogoplug Video unit was extremely noisy and active, although we have no idea if that's related to the overheating issues.
Editors' note: We recently shot a First Look video for the Pogoplug Video, but it was recorded before the news of the product recall.

Amanda Bynes came one step closer to disaster Thursday night when she was driving around West Hollywood -- on a suspended license -- and got into an accident ... though, luckily, it was minor.
Amanda was driving her black BMW 5-series out of a parking lot on Sunset Boulevard around 10:30 PM when she tapped the bumper of a white car in front of her, leaving little or no damage.
Amanda was attempting to cover her face when she love-tapped the other vehicle -- and both drivers left without exchanging information on the scene. In fairness to Amanda, some of the photogs were very close ... training bright lights on her face.
It's unclear if the other driver reported the fender bender to cops, but it's a damn good bet Amanda and her suspended license did NOT.
TMZ published photos of Amanda smoking a marijuana pipe during a day of aimless driving around the San Fernando Valley on Tuesday.
Those pics and Amanda's recent driving record -- DUI arrest, multiple hit-and-run allegations -- have several cops worried she's going to kill someone on the road.
The BEST thing you guys can do is stay ON her like this!!! We need all this proof to get this head-case OFF the roads.
Menace2Society, much?
"Nuff said!
Haven't you seen Seinfeld? Don't you know about the Good Samaritan Law? Are you phoning the police when you see her, since you know she is commiting criminal offences? Should you be arrested for failing to report? I think so, yes. Imagine if somebody died because TMZ was too busy getting the shots, to care about having this wild animal apprehended.
Is she truly this arrogant and stupid or is she Bi-polar? The fact that she would drive like this, knowing she may go to jail for YEARS tells me she just HAS to be Bi-polar and in her manic phase. She needs help.
If Harvey is so concerned about getting Amanda Bynes off the street why doesn't Harvey instruct his camera people if they see her driving call the police?
This chick neeeds to have some driving lessons.
Did she get her licence out of a cereal box? she also needs to abstain from the ganja whilst driving, some people just can't handle it.
Omg this Betch is crazy! Like I am serious dying ha how could she top Lindz like this. I'm happy no one has been injured but she has to be mental because her ass is gonna go to jail. What 5 or 6 crashes in less the 2 months? She wants to get caught and loves the attention.
How come she's still driving? Doesn't she have any family member who can call police when she takes off in her car? She won't stop till she kills some innocent person.
Did she finally get her car washed? Hopefully she emptied the garbage & had it vacuumed.
So Amanda decided to drive with a suspended license and get in an accident a couple weeks ago. Why do you have to keep bringing it up every other day? Oh right.... because it keeps happening every other day.
TMZ you really have to call the cops instead of just taking pictures if she does have an accident and you have seen her in whatever state then you will at least morally be responsible. The police need to do something there is evidence as clear as day of her driving and smoking something when she shouldn't be. Someone is going to get killed and it seems to be race between Amanda and Lindsay to who is going to destroy their or someone else's life the most.
It's funny how a TMZ camerman always seems to be there and no other media outlet. You would think they would call the cops and get footage of her getting caught which would be more worthwhile and interesting. I'm starting to think you guys are setting these photos up yourselves?
Everyone should contact LAPD, either via phone or via the web until they arrest her a$$ and put her in jail. If this was one of us regular folks trolling around LA smoking some kind of drugs and driving on a suspended license, we would have been put in jail already! Get this dead-beat off the road!!

The park has very limited hours. They close at 5:30 - right when everyone is arriving. There are no internal lights to guide you in the dark. I had reserved a pull thru. I was shocked to get to our space and find it was a back in. Only being there one night we didn't want to unhook the car. I called the closed office and they said that they didn't have a record of my reservation being for a pull thru but it had been reserved as a back in. I have reserved 3 months ahead and somehow my reservation had been changed without my knowledge. They said that all the pull thrus we're full. The next morning as we were getting ready to go the trash cart man came by and yelled at us telling us that we only had 30 minutes to leave as check out time was 10. While the park was nice the staff was rude and unhelpful. They don't seem interested in short term reservations nor the need to get them correct.

We stay here often as it is one of our favorite parks. It is beautifully kept and very relaxing. The only thing that I have consistently not been happy with is the excessive lawn watering. They water 5 of 7 nights and the water pressure is so high that it waters RVs, cars, and patios, as well as the lawn. The sprinklers aren't aimed properly to only water the grass. So every night, except Fri and Sat., everything gets soaked! It takes hours in the morning sun for it to dry out, only to be re-soaked again the next night. Nothing can be left on the patio that can't tolerate a drenching. I complained about this and was told it was the best they could do with the system they have. I appreciate a green lawn, but the sprinklers should only sprinkle the grass, not the patio, not the RV and not as a deluge of water. The perimeter spots are nice and big with a fenced yard. They are very wide and worth the extra cost if you like room on your sides. The regular full hookup sites have 6 - 8 feet in between the sites. The perimeter spots come with a fire pit and BBQ grill at no extra charge. They do get drenched every night and are rusty. There is a nice large fenced in dog area. The pool area is very nice, but the pool water is kept on the chilly side. The showers are clean. They have interesting activities on the weekends; BBQ on Fridays and ice creme and movie on Sat. nights. They are consistently upgrading the park and things keep improving. It's a very pleasant park like atmosphere.

When we arrived we were handed a list of 36 rules! Within 2 hours of being there I saw 6 of the rules being violated without any enforcement. After that it got worse. There are many long term residents in this park - app 85%. They don't respect the space of the short term pull-throughs. We had people letting their dog poop on the small gravel patch that was our spot. Between the hours of 3:30 - 7 on weekdays and well beyond those times on the weekends, we were in the middle of an unsupervised skate park with 7-10 children of all ages running, skateboarding and biking through the streets and unoccupied sites. The long term people used the empty short term spots to park their extra cars and weren't happy about someone being in the spot. The office personnel was not friendly nor helpful. The showers were clean but spartan; only one hook and nothing else. The short term spots are all cement with a little bit of gravel separating some of the spots; not all. While each pull-through is long, there is only 7 feet between the spots so slides and awnings just miss each other. There is insufficient space to park one's car; so much so that doors are bashed into each other. This is not my definition of a "resort". The Good Sam rating of 9/9/8 is way too high for this park! Everything is a little insufficient in the park, but nothing is really awful.

The best thing about this park is the ocean view. It's spectacular. Otherwise, it's a giant parking lot. There's only about 4 feet in between the RV's; not even the width of a walkway, let alone anyplace to set out a chair to enjoy the view. Many spaces are too short to park a car and rv together. Getting to the park from the north side of S.F. is a real pain; 4 freeway interchanges and a toll bridge make it a harrowing adventure. Getting here from the south on Highway 1 is a lot easier. There are many long term residents here with junky rv's; some are on blocks with parts all over the ground. There are some end spaces with grass that are nicer then the all blacktop spaces, but one has to request them. The grass on the end spaces is the "dog walk" areas. So dogs visit your spot all day long. Most of the spaces are all blacktop with only the hookup pedestal in between. It looks like a mall parking lot.

This is a good park for overnight. It's quiet, with level sites. The spaces are back to back, so it's close on the back side of the RV. However, each space has a patio, picnic table and a grass area, so the front side of the space is nice. There are a lot of long term RVs around, some are junky others are well kept. There aren't many RV parks on this part of Interstate 5, so this is a good overnight park. It's an easy on and off from the freeway.

This is a nice park. Gravel pull through spaces are wide and long. They are easy to fit into. The showers are clean and convenient with all the necessary amenities. They have a lot of space and need to put in a pool and dog run. They also need to put more trash dumpsters around the park. It's right off the freeway and very easy to get to. The freeway noise is minimal.

Premier RV Resorts of Eugene Oregon

This is a really nice resort. The pond and privacy spaces in the back of the park have a lot of room; length and width. The view is very nice. The interior spaces are smaller and closer together. There seems to be lot of long term RV's in the interior, cheaper spaces. However it is neat and tidy looking. We were at the far end of the park - away from the freeway. The freeway noise did not bother us. My main issue with this park is that for a 300 space park the laundry and showers are insufficient. There are 2 laundry areas, each with only 3 washers and 4 dryers. They are busy constantly except for the 2 hours in the middle of the day when they are cleaned. 3 washers is not enough for one person to do all of their clothes! I suspect these laundry areas were designed by a man who wore shrunken, faded clothing from not knowing how to separate his hot/cold, & light/dark loads. It takes forever to do the separate loads with only 3 machines, which causes other people to wait longer. Additionally each of the 2 restrooms only had 2 showers in them. The regular shower is very nice, with a shelf, bench, separate drying area & hooks. The other shower is a handicap shower. It was a large room with nothing in it except the shower head. No rails, no shelf, no bench, no drying area. It is a giant wet room. There was no way the handicapped person could dress without getting their clothes wet. Not all handicap people are in a wheelchair; other room furniture is still needed. Lacking these necessities is why I only gave them 8 out of 10 stars.
Fairview, Oregon
Portland Fairview RV Park
[ 8/10 ]
This is a very nice campground. The spaces are wide and you have plenty of room for a patio and to park the car, plus slides and awnings. There's about 20 feet between the RV's in the pull through sites. There is less space between the RVs in the back in spaces. The restrooms/laundry/clubhouse/pool area is for a park 1/4 the size. I would guess the park expanded at some point and they didn't put in anymore facilities. The laundry/restrooms pool area is very small without enough car parking around it. The showers 'drying area' isn't separated by a step therefore it's like getting dressed in the shower! Even the shower curtain doesn't touch the ground and is useless at stopping the water from running into the drying area. The showers are dark and need more light fixtures. The trash/recycle area is clustered in the middle of the park. So if you're at the front of the park or the 3rd section of the park, you have to climb a hill to dump the trash. Since the park is so large, every section of the park needs they're own dumpster! The cable TV at our site only half worked. I told the office and they told me it was my equipment (which worked at the last campground). The park is very large with lots of extra space. It would be easy to put in a fenced dog run & a playground for kids. Right now, there is only a dog path on the upper level and a duck pond on a lower level. There are some spots that are not satellite friendly, so ask for a satellite friendly spot when you reserve.
Kent, Washington
Seattle / Tacoma KOA
[ 4/10 ]
The best thing about this park is it's location. It's right off the 5 freeway about 20 minutes from Seattle. It is very kid and pet friendly. That being said, it has some major problems. The spaces are too close together. The "Deluxe Patio sites" don't have a patio. It is a blacktop pad that connects in the back of the space to the space next to you, which makes a little BBQ area. There is about 10 feet between the RV's in the deluxe sites. The water hookup is in the middle of the next persons outdoor area. The electric and sewer are where they're suppose to be, but the water is all the way over to the next person's area, so much so that you step on it when you come out your door. We seriously questioned whether the utilities installer was drunk when they installed them. No two sights have the utilities in the exact same position; some are worse. The place is way overpriced for what you get. Charging $1.50 per pet, per day is ridiculous. The interior roads are too small. There were 3 accidents that we know of, while we were here. There is no room to park a car, if it does not fit on the space. The office car spaces are always full. People's cars hang over into the narrow streets as the sites are too short and placed too closely together. With the cars hanging into the narrow streets and RV's trying to get by, accidents happen easily.

Trailer Inns RV Parks
[ 6/10 ]
The pull thrus in the front are very close together and small. Pay the extra for the "super premium site". They are wide, long and worth it. There is no satellite access here. The trees are large and the foliage is heavy. They could have sat. access if they'd trim the trees, but that doesn't seem likely. The man on the phone lied to me and said most of the sites were sat. accessible - the residents told me otherwise when we arrived. They do have good cable TV but that doesn't help if one is missing their prime satellite channels which they pay extra for. There isn't a pet area. They say there's a pet walk but it's out the gate on the street. A street parkway is not a pet walk no matter how many signs say it is; it's the public street! It's very quiet here and the manager is helpful. The 2nd access door to the showers and laundry needs to be opened; it is currently sealed. Dragging all one's clothes through the office is annoying and intrusive. The pool is indoors and heated which is very nice. However there are no windows; it's like swimming in the dark dungeon. There are a lot of junky permanent trailers around but no one bothered us. Because of the junky trailers we chose not to leave any valuable RV items sitting outside unattended (grills, surge suppressors, etc). It is primarily a residential park with a small number of RV's going in and out.
Pendleton, Oregon
Pendleton KOA
[ 5/10 ]
This RV park is clean and quiet, but it has the ambience of sleeping in an RV storage yard. The park is long and narrow and the sites are close together. It has no pool, a very small pet area and a very small playground. It has 3 very nice private "unisex" bathrooms complete with showers. The laundry area only has 6 washers. The back in spaces are extremely small, however they are on a cement pad. Most of the short term back in spaces are back to back. The pull thru spaces have more room, but are on gravel with grass as a patio. Some pull thru gravel spaces are not level. Some have a raised sewer connection (which is very difficult to use since water doesn't run up hill). It's a nice park for a short stay.
Caldwell, Idaho
Ambassador RV Resort
[ 8/10 ]
Very nice RV park. Our only complaint was that the pool and clubhouse/laundry was too small for such a large park. The pool is very narrow and 6 kids filled it up. There are only 6 restrooms and 6 machines in the laundry (6 washers/6 dryers). The restrooms are like private bathrooms and very nice - there just needs to be more of them. The line in the laundry room was quite long; a 45 minute wait for the washers. The park itself was great - clean and beautiful. There needs to be more dumpsters around as they only had 2, and they were always full with trash overflowing. We would definitely stay here again the next time we're in the area. It's 29 miles away from Boise, but it's nicer than any of the parks closer into town.

The spaces here are a little too close together. We had to juggle a little to get our slides between the electric post and not be in the next person's yard! The spaces are very long, & all our equipment fits on the space. There are a lot of trees, but we managed to find a satellite friendly spot with our yard mounted satellite stand. It's a very nice ambiance. The old rustic "Oregon Trail" decor is very nice. The people in the office are super nice. They were having a city water problem when we were there, and the lady in the office called us before we left our other campground and told me about the water problem (so we could fill our water tank from where we were before we left).. They also gave out free bottled water until the city water problem was fixed.
Twin Falls, Idaho
Twin Falls / Jerome KOA
[ 7/10 ]
This is a friendly and clean park. The only problem is the back to front spaces. Who wants to share their grass area with total strangers? When two rigs pull in so they are door to door, there is no privacy. If you're traveling with friends or family and want to do that, it's great. But most of us travel alone and appreciate a little privacy. Shared grass means that you could be parking next to noisy kids or dogs and there's no escape. A few of the spots had private yards, but you still share the electric post, so you were back to back. It was as close as an Interstate rest stop. It made it difficult to open slides and window awnings. Forced intimacy is not what I want when camping.

Very nice campground. The spaces were very wide, so there was a lot of room for slides, awnings and privacy. The restrooms were clean but the floors of the showers were peeling and needed to be re-done. We had full use of the hotel amenities like the very large pool and casino. The pool was in the full sun and the only way to get shade was to rent a cabana, which wasn't cheap. They needed some tables with umbrellas, for no charge. They need to put in cable TV - everything else was so nice, it was strange not to have it. We stayed for 11 days and it was very enjoyable.

The sites are so close together it looks like a used RV sales lot. Our slides almost hit the neighbors awning. The sites aren't level. They say they're pet friendly but they'll only allow dogs on a gravel path and demand they stay off the grass areas. Walking my dog in a parking lot of stones isn't a pet path!

BUGS EVERYWHERE!!!! Don't go to this park unless you like ants. Swarms of ants were everywhere and the park didn't seem to care much about it. They were doing major landscaping and everyone was complaining about the ants. No one seemed to be listening. The office needed to have a major pest control company come in the park and spray. With the landscaping work, it would have been the perfect opportunity to bug spray as well. Instead they sent one of the handymen down with a garden sprayer. After they used the garden sprayer, they turned on all of the sprinklers so it washed away the insecticide that had just been sprayed! When I complained, they told me it was scheduled lawn watering time! This park doesn't really care about their customers if it interferes with the scheduled maintenance. Don't go here unless you want bugs in your coach - lots of bugs! Also, there is no golf course. There's 2 holes- one is a "driving range' and the other a 'chip and putt' . The driving range has no balls to offer and you have to collect your own balls after you hit them. The chip and putt is OK but none of the putting greens have holes. The golf portion of this park is a bad joke.

The spaces are too close together. I asked for a wide space in the office and was told that I was being given one. There was only about 12 feet between my RV and my neighbor in my space. When my neighbor put out their awning, it was one inch away from my slide out.

While the park advertises that it has cable TV hookups, it does not have them in every site. The "premium" river view sites do not have cable TV hookups. The antenna reception is very poor because of the trees. The WiFi connection is very weak and is only available in the center of the park, in the tent area which is very close to the router. It is not available from your space. The park has a beautiful view, but it's spaces are too close together and it is over priced for what it offers.
Gilroy, California
Garlic Farm RV Park
[ 5/10 ]
Nice park; no pet area. Very little grass. The landscaping is mostly large clumps of hard dirt rocks, which are hard to walk on. Upon our check in a man in the office who identified himself as the manager, said he had 'nothing to do, so he'd help us" get settled in. He went out to our RV, which was parked in the registration area and immediately started yanking on my tow bar. I was behind him and had to yell to him not to touch the tow bar handles as the unit was not straight and they would not release on a curve. When I finally caught up to him, he was waiting patiently for us to straighten up. After we straightened he started "helping" us undo the tow. I was very specific and told him not to undo any cords from the RV but to disconnect ONLY from the car end. He said OK. Less than 2 minutes later he handed me my electrical cord's adapter - disconnected from the RV. Seeing that the cord had a pin adapter plus my verbal instructions should have given him a clue that this cord has a delicate connection and should not be yanked. I said nothing and we proceeded to our spot. When we arrived at our spot he came over in his truck. He insisted that we park in such a way that our slide trunks wouldn't open. I informed him of the trunk problems and also the unusual location of our sewer connections and his response was "I know". It is impossible for him to know the particulars of every make/model of RV, so I found his comment ridiculous. When I told him again that his parking position wouldn't work for our configuration he got very nasty and insisted saying "I am the manager and it's my park and I know how to park RV's"! I told him that we have a similar problem when we stay at a resort in San Diego and we just angle the coach a little and it works well. He answered saying "This isn't San Diego, and I'm the manager, and you can't do that!". I then asked him why we couldn't angle a little and he said that our car wouldn't fit on our space. I told him that it was a small car and it would fit. He insisted that it would not, so I moved the car into the space while he watched. It easily fit. At that point he got in his truck and sped away (exceeding his own 5 mph speed limit). We then had to figure out how to park the RV from the unusual position that he had us parked us in, which took us quite a while. He pulled around to the other street and sat there and watched us the entire time. While we had an enjoyable stay, this was not an enjoyable start to our vacation.

The state's public school system remains the top school system in the country for a fifth straight year, according to a report released by Education Week Thursday.
A leading education publication, Education Week graded Maryland public schools a B+ overall, the only state to receive such a high mark. Massachusetts, New York and Virginia followed Maryland in the ranking, each receiving B marks.
Maryland earned its best marks, A's, in the areas of early-childhood education and preparing students for the workforce. The state's school system received A- marks in the areas of college readiness and school accountability.
The state received its lowest mark, C-, for equity in K-12 achievement. A summary of the Education Week report can be found here. Maryland's report card can be found here.
In a press statement, Gov. Martin O'Malley said that despite recent economic struggles Maryland has continued to invest in its public schools.
"From the earliest days of our administration, job creation and its primary ingredient, education, have topped our agenda," O'Malley said. "Every year of this administration, even during the toughest of times, we have invested to make this a reality . . . with better choices, we have built what Education Week magazine says is the #1 best public school system in America for the fifth year in a row because of our students, educators and parents who understand that the investments we make in education are investments in the future we all share."
Maryland schools superintendent Lillian M. Lowery said the rankings should be used as motivation for greater improvement.
"Every child, every parent, and every educator in Maryland has the right and expectation to have a world-class school in their neighborhood or where they work," Lowery said. "Education Week's analysis of our work illuminates many positives, but we also know where we need to improve. We'll use this, and other information, to help make certain we have better classrooms for every student."
From the Maryland State Department of Education press release:
"Maryland has continued to build upon its success since gaining the top slot in the nation in 2009. In 2010, Maryland was awarded a portion of the federal government's $4.3 billion Race to the Top funding, which has helped the State strengthen standards for students and educators, build a new data warehouse, and improve educator evaluation. Last year, Maryland received an additional four-year $50 million federal grant to help continue its reform efforts in critical early childhood education programs."

This is great--very rich, but tasted delicious with all the wonderful fruits & nuts. A cake like this, I prefer just to dust the top with powdered sugar.

From Openwaterpedia
Dr. Rondi Davies is an accomplished marathon swimmer, American record holder for the fastest time around Manhattan Island (5:44:47) for a woman and a postdoctoral research scientist and geologist in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the American Museum of Natural History. She also co-founded the 8 Bridges Hudson River Swim with David Barra and was the only person besides Grace van der Byl to finish each of the 7 stage swims of the 2012 8 Bridges Hudson River Swim.Dr. Davies grew up in Papua New Guinea. At the age of 11, her family moved back to their native Australia and she attended high school in Canberra.
"Growing up in Papua New Guinea was really great. It was in the tropics, we were outdoors all the time, we didn't have television, and we swam constantly. Everything centered around the ocean," recalled Dr. Davies.
Marathon Swimming Career
Besides her record-setting solo circumnavigation swim around Manhattan Island in September 2011 and her 10-mile world record in the Kingdom Swim in Vermont, Dr. Davies also has competed the swims organized by NYC Swim including the Manhattan Island Marathon Swim, Park to Park Swim, Great Hudson River Swim, Liberty Island Swim, Little Red Lighthouse Swim, Brooklyn Bridge Swim, Governors Island Swim, and the Stars & Stripes Aquathlon as well as the 8 Bridges Hudson River Swim down the Hudson River.
