Sign up to re-enact First World War truce at Haworth 1940s Weekend
7:00am Friday 3rd January 2014 in News
People interested in re-enacting the experiences of First World War soldiers have been invited to be part of this year's Haworth 1940s Weekend.
Although the popular annual event always looks to recreate the atmosphere of Second World War Britain, a small part of this year's instalment will look back to the First World War to mark the 100th anniversary of the start of the conflict.
The 2014 1940s Weekend is being organised by the Soldiers, Sailors & Airmen's Families Association (SSAFA).
Haworth Main Street trader, Nikki Carroll (pictured), said organisers are in the very early stages of planning a re-enactment of the unofficial Christmas 1914 truce, when troops on the Western Front briefly ceased fighting and even took part in football matches.
"We thought this would be in keeping and a respectful way of commemorating the Christmas Day Truce," she said.
Anyone willing to come forward as a re-enactor can contact Nikki on 01535 643800 or e-mail her at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The New York Yankees' Derek Jeter has become the 28th player in major league history to register 3,000 hits, and he did it by slamming a David Price curveball into the left field seats at Yankee Stadium in the top of the third inning Saturday afternoon.
In doing so, he became the second player to hit a home run for his 3,000th hit — Wade Boggs of the then Devil Rays did so in 1999 — and also became the 11th player to have 3,000 hits, all for one team.
Jeter was the second hitter to bat in the bottom of the third inning in Saturday's game against the Rays; he took a ball, then a called strike, then another ball from Price. After a foul ball, Price threw a pitch outside the zone to run the count to 3-2. Jeter then fouled off two Price offerings before hitting the home run for the milestone hit.
It was the third home run of the season for Jeter and 237th of his career. And, also importantly for Yankee fans, it tied the game 1-1.

Bears QB Jay Cutler is questionable to return against the Packers after suffering a knee injury.
Cutler hurt his knee in the second quarter and played during the Bears' first possession of the second half, but backup QB Todd Collins has since replaced Cutler.
Cutler completed 6-of-14 passes for 80 yards and one interception before going to the bench.
Collins, 16th-year veteran, played in two games and started one during the regular season, throwing no touchdowns and five interceptions.

Michael Pineda, Gio Gonzalez, and Mat Latos are all young, good, and cheap. There was absolutely no urgency for their former teams to trade them. It makes sense to compare the three trades that sent them elsewhere.
Latos was traded for Yonder Alonso and Yasmani Grandal. There were other players in the deal, but those two were the main pieces. After figuring out that Alonso couldn't even pretend he was a Raul Ibanez-level clomper in left, and with Devin Mesoraco already in the system, the Reds knew they probably had to trade both of them. It was unexpected, though, that they'd go in the same deal to the same team. The Padres will miss Latos, but they're right to be a little excited about their haul.
Gonzalez was traded for a chunk of the Nationals' farm system. That's the kind of trade description that can be thrown around lightly, but it was a legitimate chunk -- the Nationals traded four out of the top ten prospects in their system to get Gonzalez. The A's didn't have to trade the left-hander, but considering what they got in return, it was a deal that would have been almost impossible to pass up.
The Mariners traded Michael Pineda for one prospect*. There wasn't a pairing of highly regarded prospects, like the Alonso/Grandal deal. There wasn't a gaggle of B+ to B- prospects, like in the Gio Gonzalez deal. When considering service time and ceiling, Seattle almost certainly had the most valuable asset to trade, yet they received the fewest rebuilding pieces back in the deal.
* Well, there was a teenaged pitcher that went to the Yankees in the deal, and there was a MLB-ready pitcher who came back to the Mariners, but whittled down to its core, the trade was Pineda for Jesus Montero.
The Mariners got one player in return. One lonely prospect. The A's can use their bounty of prospects to light cigars. Well, the half-smoked nubby cigar that someone left in an ashtray, at least. That's the new market inefficiency for cigars. The Mariners got a guy.
So in that sense, the Mariners didn't do nearly as well as the Padres or A's. The Mariners have a lot of long-term holes that need fixing. They got a guy. They created another hole to get him. It's worthwhile to compare the three trades, tally up the prospects, and declare that the Mariners didn't do nearly as well.
But in another sense, the trades aren't comparable. The Mariners don't think they got a guy. They think they got a guy. That is, a future star. A once-in-a-generation player. Of all the players who switched sides in the three trades, the Mariners almost certainly feel that they received the most talented one. They have minor league pitchers advancing through the ranks to replace Pineda, but they didn't have any middle-of-the-order types who were close to graduation. So they made a swap and got a guy. It was a totally different strategy than what the A's or Padres were going for.
This doesn't have a lot to do with what you think about Montero -- you might think he's overrated, and that he'll never stick at catcher -- but rather what the Mariners think of Montero. All of the prospects in all three deals have their warts. Grandal doesn't project to be a slugger. Not one of the Nats' four prospects got anything above a B+ from Sickels. And Yonder Alonso's .870 OPS in AAA came when he repeated the level in his age-24 season. Montero outdid Alonso in the International League when he was 20.
And the Mariners think Montero can stay at catcher. The Yankees sure did:
Butch Wynegar, a former major-league catcher who has worked extensively with Montero as a Yankees instructor, dismisses the comparison to Piazza.
"Monty is not Mike Piazza," he told the New York Post last spring. "He is not going to be a hitter-only as a catcher. He is going to be an everyday catcher in the big leagues who can handle the catching. I truly believe that."
To put the entire trade frenzy in terms of Baseball America's top-100 prospect list from 1994, they think they got a Carlos Delgado who can remain at catcher. They weren't interested in sifting out the Shawn Greens and Johnny Damons from the legions of Marc Newfelds, Tyler Greens, or Arquimedez Pozos in the middle of the list. If the Mariners were going to trade Michael Pineda, they were going to trade him for what they think is going to be a future star, not a bunch of raffle tickets.
The Padres and A's could say, "Look at all this stuff!" after their trades. The Mariners could say, "Check out this guy." You might not agree with their excitement when it comes to Montero, but it sure makes it hard to compare the deal with any of the other trades made this winter. Different trades, with different returns, that followed completely different strategies.

Group for people suffering from diabetes-related eye disease meets on Thursday
1:36pm Monday 17th February 2014 in News
PEOPLE suffering from eye disease as a result of diabetes are invited to a support group meeting at Worcestershire Royal Hospital on Thursday.
The Worcestershire Diabetic Eye Disease Support Group will meet at the hospital's diabetes centre from 10am until midday on Thursday, February 20.
The group will be led by consultant Jasbir Chhina, who will talk about the benefits of registering as sight-impaired, and senior Orthoptist Carol Allen, who will have information on low vision aids.
The high levels of glucose caused as a result of diabetes can cause diabetic retinopathy, or damage to the retina.
Mrs Chhina said: "Retinopathy is the most common cause of blindness among people of working age in the UK.
"It is important to understand what it is, how it is treated, what can be done to reduce the risk of developing it and what positive actions you can take."
Family members supporting people with diabetes-related eye diseases are also welcome.
To confirm attendance at the meeting or for more information call 01905 763 458 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

Woodside: Couple fined for illegally downing trees

When you're rich, it is easier to do the crime and pay the fine than to deal with plebeian permits.

When doing remodeling, it's not the responsibility of the homeowners to pull permits, its the responsibility of the contractor. I would have imagined the same applies to tree removal companies. I guess not...
on Jan 22, 2014 at 12:44 pm
Let the suckers burn, it's along the same line of "responsible behavior" that our wonderful councilpersons apply the failing bridges of the Town of Woodside.

"When doing remodeling, it's not the responsibility of the homeowners to pull permits"
The buck stops her.... elsewhere?
on Jan 22, 2014 at 2:22 pm
And if the crowded trees had caused a catastrophic fir, the couple would be fined. The permit requirement for felling trees on one's own property is ridiculous. The property owners are responsible for the trees and so should be free to take care of them however they choose.
on Jan 22, 2014 at 2:25 pm
RW is incorrect. The homeowner is ultimately responsible to insure all work that is required to be permitted is done under permit. The contractor and homeowner can make an agreement as to who is responsible for obtaining permits, but that is a contractual issue between those 2 parties. A licensed contractor is required to do work under permit and in order to not jeopardize his/her license he/she should make sure permits have been pulled, but the contractor is not necessarily the one obligated to apply for the permits.
on Jan 24, 2014 at 10:48 am
It would seem appropriate for Woodside and Portola Valley to do a bit more balancing of competing interests when it comes to trees. Preserving a feeling of openness, light, vistas and "viewshed" deserves its due along with the trees (which seem to be presumptively sacrosanct). Which trees are planted -- and where -- should receive the same scrutiny as which trees may/may not be removed. Property owners preferences and rights should also be in the mix.
on Jan 25, 2014 at 2:03 pm
When I stop to think of all that has come and gone in a mature tree's life time .and the fact that this tree has survived it all to cut it down seems the ultimate arrogance. Justify it any way you want.
on Jan 27, 2014 at 10:51 pm
When I think of looking out on a wide open vista where I can see the distant hills, the sky or the Bay... to obstruct that view, that feeling of freedom and openness seems like an unfortunate circumstance which should be viewed with a sense of balancing these naturally competing interests and concerns. A sense of accommodating the trees and those who legitimately value both the trees and being able to see what is in the distance beyond should help us have a productive discussion and develop some guidelines which reduce the tension surrounding these issues.
Neither trees nor views should trump the other. There needs to be a balance.

Five Free Math Games For Kids
June 21, 2010 | Posted By: Kelly Wilson
The lack of routine at the beginning of summer vacation is fun for about three days. After that, I begin to see my childrens brains turn to mush.
Each year around June 15th, I begin my fight against the threat of brain degeneration. My previous strategy included a trip to the local teacher store for workbooks at the correct grade levels for my kids. This worked fine until money got tight, and I couldnt afford as many educational materials as I wanted to buy.
In order to supplement the curriculum I could afford, I came up with a few easy math activities to do with kids over summer break. These are appropriate for younger and older kids, and can be adjusted to fit your childs age and developmental level.
Make Your Own Counting Book
Use a notebook and have your child title the first page "My Counting Book." On the next page, write the number one at the top, number two on the second page, and so on. Provide as many numbered pages as youd like, depending on your childs age and skill level.
For a short time each day, have your child provide a picture that demonstrates the number at the top of the page. For example, if the number is "eight," have your child draw eight birdhouses along with writing the number eight. For a fun alternative, provide stickers, beads, or foam shapes for kids to glue into their notebooks to illustrate the number on the page.
Egg Math Game
This activity will require an egg crate and either plastic Easter eggs, paper eggs or foam eggs that you make and cut in half. On one side of an egg, write a math problem in permanent marker. The difficulty of the math problems will depend on the age and academic level of your children, but the problems can be addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, or even fractions.
Write the answer to each problem on the other halves of the eggs. Repeat this for at least twelve eggs, separate them, and mix them up in a large container. Then your kids can spend some time matching the eggs and putting them into the crate! For an extra challenge, create eight to ten more egg math problems each week to throw into the container.
Clean Out the Junk Drawer
This is a great activity that cleans something while at the same time allows your kids to practice counting, sorting and classifying objects, and solving a variety of math problems.
Take everything out of the junk drawer (ours is in the kitchen) and simply dump it on the table. With your kids, separate the items and sort them into categories, which may include coins, pens, pencils, permanent markers, stuff that absolutely belongs somewhere else, scissors, and notepads, among other things.
While sorting, have your kids make addition, subtraction, multiplication or division problems using the items. One addition problem I personally like is 1 cleaned out junk drawer + 2 kids helping = Mom feels more sane! When youre done with the junk drawer, considering moving on to another catch-all area of the house, like a closet or the garage!
On a Roll
This game is fun for the whole family. Grab two dice or make them out of cubes. Each person takes turns rolling the dice and adding up the numbers, and the first to 100 wins. Variations on this game include increasing the total to 250 or more, as well as multiplying the numbers on the dice instead of adding them (the first to 500 wins).
Whats the Best Deal? Im not going to lie to you, shopping with my kids is not my favorite activity. I try to go without them, but the fact remains that theyre with me a lot more over the summer. Plus, I need to teach them about shopping smart while I can!
One way I like to do this is through the Shopping Trip Scavenger Hunt. There are two versions of this activity, one for younger kids and one for older kids. For both levels, these sheets provide interactions with items in the grocery store, as well as activities that involve counting, adding, couponing, and thinking about how a grocery store is set up to cater to consumers. And kids are consumers.
These five easy math activities have helped me stay involved in my kids education and support whatever teaching materials my budget has allowed. And by September, its clear that these activities are well worth the effort!

This past summer, "Lawless," a gripping, based-on-a-true-story gangster movie from Australian director John Hillcoat, opened and closed without much fanfare, despite its uniformly excellent cast (included: Tom Hardy, Jessica Chastain, Shia LeBeouf, Guy Pearce, Mia Wasikowska and Gary Oldman) and the fact that it was a really terrific movie. Thankfully, if you missed it in the theaters, you have a second chance as "Lawless" debuts on Blu-ray, DVD and iTunes this week. To mark the occasion, we got to speak to Hillcoat about the top five films that influenced his thrilling film.
1) "Bonnie & Clyde" (Arthur Penn, 1967)
Unsurprisingly, Hillcoat's first choice is Arthur Penn's immortal "Bonnie and Clyde," a similarly dusty look at old timey outlaws. "I've always been very inspired by that film," Hillcoat confessed (and, now that we think of it, you can see bits of the film in his debut, the settlers-versus-aborigines epic "The Proposition"). "The way that it just got under the skin of those characters from that time and the way that it played with mythology and violence. I loved the way it was looking at those people at a time of major change in America." The film is nestled between two of Hillcoat's greatest cinematic pleasures. "My two favorite genres are the western and the gangster film, and it was great to see the gangster film in the country," Hillcoat said. "It was a very different sort of film focusing just on that one mythic couple. But the way that it deconstructed the myth but also added to the myth was also amazing and inspiring. And you just sort of felt like you were in those times and with those people."
We then asked him about what he assimilated from the film's use of violence (there are more than a few moments of shocking violence in "Lawless" that had us squirming). "The violence is very explosive and very harsh and brutal," Hillcoat explained. "[But] the violence, when it does erupt, is not gratuitous and is very truthful."
Next up on the hit parade is Raoul Walsh's gangster classic "White Heat," made for Warner Bros. near the end of the forties (in 2003 its importance was solidified when it was added to the National Film Registry). "To me it's the high point of the classic gangster genre," Hillcoat said. A lot of this has to do with the film's lead. "The great thing about [James] Cagney was that no matter how goony he was, he was always truthful."
"What's amazing about 'White Heat' is that, even for its time, it's very truthful in the way it deals with violence," Hillcoat explained. "It's shockingly visceral." What's also incredible is how the genre was still in its infancy when "White Heat" came along and made its mark. "You can see the birth of this genre and it's kind of defined by that movie in so many ways," Hillcoat said, noting that it provided direct inspiration for at least one character in the film. "That was a great inspiration for the character of Rakes [a villainous law enforcer played with lip-smacking gusto by Guy Pearce] and the kind of Chicagoan from those times," he added.

Iâm going to have to check out those documentaries. Iâve only recently become interested in that era of history, but it seems very fascinating. I havenât seen Lawless yet, but one of my coworkers at DISH told me it was the kind of movie you only want to see once. So I wonât be blind-buying it. I used to buy most of my movies before I saw them, but that habit left me with a bunch of discs Iâll never use again. Thatâs a lot of money wasted. Once I started thinking like that I decided to change my habits, and now I use DISHâs Blockbuster @Home to rent all my movies before I buy them. I get thousands of titles streamed whenever I want to my TV and PC and over 100,000 titles by mail for a flat monthly fee, and it keeps me from buying movies that are just going to gather dust.
Dom Pink | November 28, 2012 6:53 PM
THE PROPOSITION was not Hillcoat's debut.
JD V | November 28, 2012 1:26 PM
"The genre was in it's infancy"...??? White Heat came out in 1949. It was considered a REVIVAL of gangster movies. Josef Von Sternberg's Underworld, probably the first real classic gangster movie, was released in 1924. Even if you don't accept Underworld as the beginning of the genre, Little Ceaser was a big hit in 1930.

There are 12 games to go in the regular season and the biggest obstacle the Chicago Blackhawks will face is themselves.
The St. Louis Blues came into Thursday night's contest as a playoff bubble team and skated away with two hard fought points. The Hawks are one of the best teams in hockey, but when facing a desperate club a full effort is often required.
More concerning than getting outplayed in the third period again and losing to a lesser team on home ice was the response from Joel Quenneville. In postgame comments, the head coach seemed to think a lot of his team's 4-3 shootout loss and that was surprising.
"I like the way we played tonight. I thought we played a good game," Quenneville said, according to ChicagoBlackhawks.com. "We couldn't get the extra goal there to get ahead by two. Third goal – I like the way we came back in the game as well. I thought we played well for the majority of the game."
I agree the Hawks played well for the majority of the first period and fully controlled the middle frame. With all due respect to the Blues they shouldn't be able to outplay the Blackhawks in a third period at the United Center. This is especially so after the Blues were completely dominated in the preceding period and were outshot 15-5.
St. Louis, who isn't exactly considered a four line team, yet was led by their fourth line, was able to capture momentum and steal a victory. Their goaltender Brain Elliott could be classified as having a bad shootout history but was still able to outplay Corey Crawford to get the win. It took six rounds in the shootout but the Blues found a way to win.
It's not a shock the Hawks lost to the Blues Thursday night. But anyone not a little troubled as to the way recent losses are happening is ignoring the obvious.
Since the consecutive point streak ended the Blackhawks are just a shade over .500. That isn't terrible considering the injuries to Marian Hossa and Patrick Sharp. Although what should be a concern are some bad habits setting in that are costing points, especially on home ice.
The Blackhawks can be so good when they manage the puck well and keep the game simple. The best teams close games out and don't lose because they are not mentally engaged. The Blues showed what a determined effort is like, and deserved to win.
Thursday night, Patrick Kane was trying to do too much and was neutralized for the most part. Kane managed to make a great pass to trigger the first Chicago goal but sometimes he needs to simplify his game.
Duncan Keith looked a bit too casual. Keith wasn't skating hard enough to catch the play after a Michal Rozsival giveaway resulted in a goal.
Brent Seabrook made a mistake by making a half-hearted attempt to block a long shot which led to a deflection and a Blues goal.
There were unforced errors as turnovers are a great equalizer.
The power play was unsuccessful in three attempts and for the most part was overpassing and playing out on the perimeter.
There was more but you get the idea, although Quenneville was correct, for the majority of the game the Hawks outplayed the Blues. What he skipped over was his club has failed to seal the deal of late and hasn't been able to play an effective 60 minutes.
So maybe Coach Q. is being a little too delicate and his lack of criticism is curious. Possibly he is being too respectful of team that still has the best record in the NHL. Trends develop slowly and sometimes stick around for a long time. Currently the Blackhawks are being outworked in crunch time.
One thing that is for certain in the NHL, the better team doesn't always win playoffs rounds.
Al's Shots
I tried to warn anxious Hawk fans there probably wouldn't be any more acquisitions for the big club after the Michal Handzus trade. My thinking turned out to be correct as the trade deadline day went quietly in Chicago.
GM Stan Bowman was true to his word and didn't trade anyone off the NHL roster. Much of what was rumored didn't have a chance of happening, but that was then.
Often trades take place long after they were first discussed. Judging by whom I heard the rumor from, of a possible Islander-Blackhawk trade both here and in New York, there was probably something to it. So maybe those two get together this summer for a transaction.
The scuttlebutt coming out of New York about possibly being able to acquire rookie Brandon Saad was off base. It would take a far bigger return than the Islanders would be willing to put together for Bowman to trade Saad as he is almost untouchable.
As this season goes on, Saad is getting better and better, and now is scoring goals.
Usually a forward has to be in the top two in rookie scoring to have a chance to win the Calder Trophy. No disrespect meant to the sports writers who vote for the Calder winner, but it seems like this is largely a scoring stat reward.
So in my book for Saad to have a chance, no matter how well he plays in every facet of the game, he needs to put up goals and assists.
Florida's Jonathan Huberdeau and Ottawa's Cory Conacher have 25 and 24 points respectively. Montreal's Brendan Gallagher has three more goals than Saad but both are tied for third in rookie scoring with 21 points.
If Saad could finish at least second in rookie scoring, and he could be there soon, he should have a big shot to win the Calder. Saad. unlike the two leading rookie scorers. is a strong +13 which is better than other freshman.
Jonathan Toews had another fine game and looks to be quicker and faster than ever. Toews knows how to score dirty goals and did so Thursday night.
Hossa was in good form in his first game back from injury.
Newcomer Handzus played well. He was a +1, with three hits and was a strong 71% to the good in the faceoff circle to lead all Hawks.
Hard-working Viktor Stalberg was rewarded with a goal Thursday night.
I will have more to say next time about some rule changes that need to happen as soon as possible in the NHL.
Here's a story that should be appreciated by fans of any sport but especially those who once wanted to be an NHL player.
On April 2, 31-year-old center Greg Rallo, who is from the Chicago-area, scored his first NHL goal. Rallo is with the Florida Panthers and although I have never seen him play, his career is a journey of passion.
I can't imagine how proud his family and friends must be as Rallo endured a very long road to get to the NHL. From his days in youth hockey the car trips, early morning practices, bumps, bruises and ice bags have to be too numerous to count.
Rallo got a taste for success during his youth hockey career while playing for the Franklin Park Flames. He played junior hockey in the North American league for two seasons and then went on to play four years at Ferris State.
That was fun compared to the work Rallo put in over the next eight years.
Since 2005, Rallo spent parts of three seasons in the ECHL, and then played for six different AHL clubs. Rallo had a brief two game stint with Rockford during the 2007-2008 campaign.
Rallo's first chance in the NHL happened last season in a one game call-up with Florida. His power play goal the other night which helped the Panthers get a shootout win over Tampa Bay had to be an unbelievable thrill.
There is no substitute for hard work and determination, and no doubt Greg Rallo is the definition of both.
I will be back on Sunday to discuss the game in Nashville. You can follow me on Twitter @AlCimaglia.

Get a package of cotton candy (I found some at Wal-mart). Show the girls the cotton candy...pick off a piece and roll it in a ball. Hold up the original cotton candy to the ball you just created and tell them that we are a lot like the cotton candy. Explain that cotton candy is cotton candy, whether in a ball or in its light and fluffy form. We are all God's children and He loves us all, regardless of how our bodies are formed. We need to be compassionate, look deep, and be sensitive to the feelings of others. (Credit Unknown)
In one ward we were in, we had quite a few children who had different learning disabilities. For a teacher inservice, I handed one of the teachers a Japanese Book of Mormon and asked her to read it out loud for everyone. She could not and looked rather flustered. I then began to read from the book for them and then turned to someone and asked them a question in Japanese. We then talked about the feeling of frustration some of our children may have, how to help them process the information we are giving them and how to help them feel more comfortable. Sometimes they may not be able to hear us or understand us as well, sometimes they may not be able to read as well, … I thought it worked quite well as an introduction. (Dona Braswell)

I don't know why, but there's something fantastic about Travis McCoy responding to a fan who thinks his band, the Gym Class Heroes, is a bunch of "sellouts" for touring with Lil Wayne and T-Pain with the retort "you're soooooo Saddle Creek!" Maybe it's the dearth of new insults in 2008? Also, a Lil Wayne and T-Pain tour as a dealbreaker with a band who I have personally seen share a stage with Hinder? I mean, it was one of those radio-station clustershows where everyone gets three songs, but Lil Wayne > Austin Winkler times a million. [Travie McCoy.]
The best part about this is that GCH already reached for the mainstream rap crossover brass ring with all those The-Dream and Cool & Dre collaborations on their last album and failed miserably.
hi,really beautiful apple,do you know where i can find that beautiful.thanks,Vox

The Dominican-born population in the United States has grown rapidly since 1960, and today, the United States is home to 960,000 immigrants from the Dominican Republic. This article provides up-to-date demographic information for Dominican immigrants in the United States, including statistics on distribution by state and metro area, educational and professional attainment, income levels, health care coverage, and more.
The U.S. immigrant population—estimated at 40.8 million in 2012 — is the nation's historical numerical high, and it is also the largest foreign-born population in the world. About 20 percent of all international migrants reside in the United States, even as the country accounts for less than 5 percent of global population. This article presents the latest, most sought-after data on immigrants in the United States—by origin, residence, legal status, deportations, languages spoken, and more—in one easy-to-use resource.
MPI's Aaron Matteo Terrazas and Claire Bergeron report on the halting of DHS plans to crack down on unauthorized employment, Iraqi refugee admissions, the extended deployment of the National Guard on the Southwest border, and more.
In the 1990s, Mexican immigrants began to leave California, Texas, and Illinois for the so-called new settlement states where they had not previously resided. As Ivan Light of UCLA explains, their reasons for leaving or bypassing Los Angeles were both economic and political.

Recognizing the particular challenges to refugee protection faced on both sides of the Atlantic, this report questions whether strengthening resettlement programs in the U.S. and Europe can help to address ongoing concerns over security, the volume and diversity of migrants, the rise of right-wing parties and the role of the welfare state.
Canada and Mexico's importance to the United States is more than simply a border-state phenomenon. The trading relationship between United States and Canada represents the largest bilateral flow of income, goods, and services in the world. Meanwhile, Mexico is the United States' second largest trading partner.
This fact sheet provides an estimate and brief description of the unauthorized immigrant population in the United States in 2003.
In the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, changes to visa policies, new security procedures, and measures to combat fraud contributed to a shift in the traditional composition of immigration flows. This report highlights recent data on immigrants to the U.S. and offers key analysis of what these figures mean in terms of U.S. policy.
The events that unfolded in the U.S. on September 11 generated a renewed sense of urgency over border management. Bilateral Smart Border agreements were reached between the U.S. and Canada as well as the U.S. and Mexico in December 2001 and March 2002. This report tracks the implementation of these border accords and seeks to evaluate their effectiveness.
On November 25, 2002, Congress passed the Homeland Security Act, which effectively overhauled the former Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and called for a massive reorganization of immigration functions under the newly formed Department of Homeland Security (DHS).This report outlines key changes incurred, highlights points of concern and offers policy recommendations aimed at remedying some of these concerns.
Amidst heightened security concerns in the post-9/11 world, this policy brief examines international responses to the Iraqi refugee situation and explores various tools that can effectively allow states to reconcile security efforts with the continued commitment to international protection.

Cuts "ensure competitiveness"
Hampshire and Essex-based electronics firm SELEX Galileo says measures have been ongoing for several months to try to cope with a decrease in orders.
But the company said to ensure it remained competitive, it had been forced to announce a planned reduction in the workforce of up to 25 per cent at the Basildon and Portsmouth sites.
The company has begun collective consultation with elected employee representatives.
– Statement from SELEX Galileo
SELEX Galileo will be making every effort to avoid compulsory redundancies. Should they be necessary, they will not take place prior to March 2013 and outplacement support will be provided. The reduction in workforce will not affect the delivery of any programmes or contracts currently underway."

Drexel's men's and women's lacrosse teams hit the ground running at the open of the 2013 season. Both squads registered upset victories over nationally ranked programs and, through the first week of competition, they have a combined record of 5-1.
The Drexel women knocked off No. 11 Penn, 11-8, on Feb. 23, notching their first win over the rival Quakers since 1993. With wins over La Salle and George Washington to start the season, Drexel is now off to its best start since 2010.
Senior Kelli Joran has been a big part of the team's early success, notching three goals in each of the Dragons first three contest. She was named Co-Player of the Week by the Colonial Athletic Association and Player of the Week by WomensLax.com for her outstanding efforts.
After coming up just short in a 13-12 overtime loss to national power Virginia to open the season, the men's team has been playing some inspired lacrosse. A 20-19 win over No. 16 Albany on Feb. 23 vaulted the Dragons to a No. 14 national ranking and they defended the honor with a 12-10 victory over city rival Villanova on Feb. 26.
Junior Nick Trizano, who scored four goals against Albany to rally the dragons from a seven-goal deficit, earned CAA Player of the Week honors. His classmate Ben McIntosh, who also notched four against the Great Danes, leads the Dragons with 10 goals on the season.
The men will play Robert Morris in Pittsburgh on March 2 before returning to Drexel's Vidas Field to face Bryant on March 9. The women will be back in action against a pair of city rivals in the coming week, traveling to play Saint Joseph's on March first and hosting Villanova on March 6.

Hi: 21° Lo:11°
By Ian Dipple Friday 21 February 2014 Updated: 21/02 09:49
FAILURE to take action at a bridge over the Bromsgrove Highway where several people have lost their lives could leave the county council open to legal action, it has been claimed.
Coun Graham Vickery, who represents Redditch North division which includes the bridge, suggested witnesses to suicide attempts may be able to claim for damages for emotional and psychological distress, while there was also the cost to the emergency services of dealing with any incidents to be considered.
Between April 2006 and October 2012 six people died at the site, with a further five attempts and 32 threats. In 2009 police asked for action to be taken at the bridge because of the high suicide rate including putting up protective fencing.
The idea was recently considered but the £60,000 cost and concerns about setting a precedent for other foot, road and rail bridges across the county meant it was rejected along with the installation of catch netting underneath. Worcestershire's Health and Well-Being Board also stated that a 'possible cluster of suicide attempts and suicides' was 'no longer evident' at the site which was another factor in the decision not to take any action.
During a debate at County Hall last Thursday (February 13) Coun Vickery asked if the council had sought legal advice on the decision of the health and well-being board to ignore calls for action from organisations including the North Worcestershire Community Safety Partnership, police and Redditch and Bromsgrove Clinical Commissioning group.
"If councils are open to legal challenge if somebody trips over a misplaced pavement or if this council can be brought to a court of law about damages to vehicles caused by potholes, surely there is a risk this council could be taken to task for consciously and deliberately deciding not to prevent falls from that bridge by action rather than by signing?"
But Coun Marcus Hart, responsible for health and well-being on the council, said the site and others across the county would be monitored and if there was an increase in incidents within the next 12 months then the decision would be reviewed. He disagreed they had taken no action as signs had been installed by Samaritans - although it was pointed out they had not been put in place by the county council and before the health and well-being board made its decision.
Coun Hart added: "I can confirm I have sought legal assurance that has advised it would not expose the local authority to risk in respect of damages at this location or indeed any other."

Manicotti With Ricotta Recipes
Mushroom Manicotti Pasta Recipe
I hope your long President's Day weekend was a lovely as ours. We had some company on Saturday and had a relaxing Sunday and Monday. Yesterday, we made a few appetizers and mostly snacked on these bite-size finger foods and a few sweets throughout the day. By the evening, I still felt pretty full and assumed everyone else was too, but I was so wrong. I ran into the kitchen and improvised a meal with one Portobello mushroom, ricotta cheese, manicotti pasta shells, tomato sauce and a jar of peach jalapeno preserves from our friend Martha at San Saba River Pecan Company.
I completed a salad and mushroom manicotti dish in less than 40 minutes. The challenge was to turn a handful of key ingredients into a dish as fast as possible before baby Aria woke up from her afternoon nap. Come to think of it, that sounds like a fun Food Network Challenge! At any rate, I'm proud to report my husband Lulu and family absolutely loved the dishes. I'll share the salad with you soon.

Onion Masala Manicotti Pasta Recipe (+Giveaway)
I came up with this new dish after I received masala marinara pasta sauce from our friend Dave of DavesGourmet.com. This special sauce was the winner of the Sofi Award for outstanding pasta sauce in 2010. The sauce is very creative and definitely has a South Asian flair with hints of ginger, coconut and kaffir lime leaves. It's a must try.
Since the sauce itself is a fusion of cultures, I thought it would be fun to continue the theme and make an Italian pasta dish with Indian flavors. I made Indian-style pearl onions cooked in onion masala sauce, called dopiaza. I used that mixture to flavor manicotti stuffed with ricotta cheese and a generous helping of French triple cream cheese. If that sounds a bit decadent to you, well, it is!
If you're itching to try the sauce I used in this dish, Dave's Gourmet kindly agreed to be a part of our 25 days of giveaways. For a chance at winning, just go to our 25 Days of Giveaways page and enter. We'll announce the winner tomorrow!
Make sure you're a fan of PhamFatale Facebook fan page and Dave's Gourmet or follow @Phamfatalecom and tweet about this giveaway. To make it easy, you can just copy and paste this tweet if you'd like: "Dave's Gourmet Pasta Sauce #HolidayGiveaway from @Phamfatalecom and @DavesGourmet: http://bit.ly/vVk4L8".

Clinical Faculty
The Director of Clinical Training (DCT) coordinates the program and implements policy decisions made in clinical faculty meetings. In addition to their informal input through conversations with advisors, other faculty members, and the DCT, students have other formal channels of communication with program faculty, by which they can influence policy. Students elect a representative who attends clinical faculty meetings and has the right to place any item of interest to students on the agenda of a meeting. He or she reports to the students regularly, seeks their input on matters to place before the faculty, and meets often with the DCT. In addition, student-faculty committees are formed as necessary to work on various issues of concern to the program. Search committees for new faculty members include student members, for example, and, in recent years, student-faculty task forces have been formed to investigate such matters as admission requirements for APA-approved internships and diversity training. All clinical students have access to the DCT, who serves as an advisor in general matters of clinical training.

Two local middle school girls will be heading to the state championship spelling bee next month in the Capital.
Out of 21 qualifiers Madeline Rickert and Alyssa Ramsey out witted classmates, friends and neighbors.
Both girls have previously competed in the Ward County Spelling Bee but only Rickert, the reigning champ has been to state before.
Rickert says, she will be taking her strategies all the way to nationals.
(Madeline Rickert, First Place Speller) "If I blank on a word, I'll ask for the definition, which I'll remember, language of origin, which I'll remember, and then I'll ask for them to use it in a sentence so that I'll have time to think, because for some reason, like when I get really nervous, I blank on some of the easier words..."
The two girls will have a chance to catch fire again on March 21, the date of the North Dakota State Spelling Bee.

we were on the Millennium and it was the ship chosen to christen the new Passenger Terminal at Hong Kong's old Kai Tak runway. The terminal was still under construction and I am sure will be fantastic when completed this July.
Having sailed on the Millennium three times now we were little concerned about the bad reviews it was getting. Thank goodness our concerns were eliminated once we were on board. Great staff, food we thought was the best so far and the big production numbers in the theatre were outstanding.
The attention to detail and incredible frienliness by our main dining staff was excellent and made our evening trip to the dining room a joy. Speciality dining at the Olympic and Qsine was of excellent standard. However, as the main dining was such a high standard we will probably not choose these options in the future or go back to "Blue" with the Aqua class. The two trainers in the Gym were exceptional and James from Australia must be the best motivator we have ever encountered on any cruise. His classes were overbooked and rightly so.
The port stops are very akward on this cruise, be prepared for delays in getting off the ship and for very long bus rides.
We chose email@example.com for our private transport for the 2 days at the Bangkok port. On time and clean and reasonably priced. Avoid the tourist floating markets.
Following others recommendations we chose email@example.com for Ho Chi Minh.
The car is at the wharf and you meet Tri Dung Nguyen in the city at the Rex over a delicious iced coffe. He is without a doubt one of the best guides we have ever had.He provides you with a disk of over 100 photos of you over the day and then provides a portfolio of information on Vietnam to your web address.
Finally we chose Ha Vietland Discovery - email@example.com for our days in Hoian and Hanoi and Halong Bay.Signs are held with your name at each port. You are whisked away before the big groups thereby avoiding the queues. Be warned the trips are long but what the heck if you want to see these cities just have a little shut eye on the trips.The rest stops are very very clean.
The temporary arrangements at Hong Kong port were conducted with precision and need tobe congratulated.
Overall we had a great South East Asia experience.

DETROIT, Mich. (WLNS)- A petition asking the government to deport 19-year-old singer, Justin Bieber back to Canada has passed its goal after only 6 days.
The whitehouse.gov petition was started by "J.A." in Detroit, Michigan and has a deadline of February 22 to reach 100,000 signatures. As of 5a.m. on Thursday January 30th, the petition has 177,784 signatures.
The size of the petition merits an official response from President Obama and his administration.
The petition says, "we the people of the United States feel that we are being wrongly represented in the world of pop culture".
It was created after the Canadian born singer was arrested in Florida on DUI charges and an ongoing investigation of an alleged egg-throwing incident at Bieber's neighbors home, in California.

Native American: The Original Locavores
When the first Europeans landed in America, the natives they encountered relied on three staple crops—corn, beans and squash—along with wild berries, fruits and other plants. Fishing and hunting filled out their meals. As Native Americans became displaced during America's westward expansion, many culinary traditions were abandoned. Today, some preservationists, farmers, chefs and cooking schools are trying to revive that food culture.
Near Tucson, Arizona, a nonprofit called Tohono O'odham Community Action (TOCA) grows and harvests desert crops as the Tohono O'odham Nation did years ago. Chefs in the area are buying TOCA's tepary beans, squash, saguaro fruit, 60-day corn, prickly pears and cholla buds, and translating them into Native American-inspired dishes. Executive chef Ken Harvey of the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort features several at his Blues, Brews and Barbeque Brunch and on the menu at Flying V Bar & Grill.
"These ingredients grow under drought conditions, so the beans and squash are very dry and earthy tasting," Harvey explains. "They inherit the flavors of whatever you cook with them." He uses white tepary beans in a stew made with tomatillo broth and squash, and brown teparies in a spicy BBQ beans dish with chorizo. Harvey also sources TOCA's saguaro syrup, made from cactus blossoms. "The color is vibrant magenta and flavor is comparable to balsamic vinegar with a molasses finish. I use the syrup in a demiglace for steak and splash it on salads," he says. Speaking of steak, some of the beef Harvey sources is from the reservation's jojoba-fed cattle.
Tonto Bar & Grill in Cave Creek, Arizona, also offers Native American-style dishes.
Chef Aaron Geister's menu utilizes some products that come out of the Native Seeds SEARCH program, another nonprofit that supports ancient crops and cultures. They go into items such as Indian Harvest Torta, layered with Braised Anasazi Beans, Tomatoes, Ancho Chili Goat Cheese, Rancho Mañana Palm Dates and Tomatillo Relish. His Duo of Pork Chop and Mini Braised Pork Shank has an ancho chili and prickly pear glaze and comes with a French bean, cholla bud and tomato salad.
While some chefs are reinterpreting Native American ingredients, others advocate a more traditional approach. Freddie Bitsoie, a trained culinarian and member of the Dine tribe of the Navajo nation, feels that just because a dish uses native ingredients doesn't mean it's true Native American cuisine—it should be called "Native-inspired." As the director of the Native American Program at the Classic Cooking Academy in Scottsdale, he wants every tribe respected for its culturally specific foods and uniqueness.
Like the Tohono O'odham, several tribes are forging their identities by marketing their products and helping restaurants menu authentic dishes. The Seminoles of Florida launched their own brand of beef and began selling it to the Hard Rock Café. Teaming up with other cattle-ranching tribes and distributing through US Foodservice, they are able to deliver a consistent supply.
