Oklahoma's Woman of the Year finalist: Darcie Harris
In 2009, Darcie Harris was in Rwanda helping women in that African country do what Harris has done here: succeed in business. Harris traveled there as part of a team from the Institute for the Economic Empowerment of Women that presented a leadership-training program, then visited businesses of each of the students.
The outreach was part of the institute's Peace Through Business program, which helps train women entrepreneurs from war-torn countries in business practices, followed by mentorship with American women business owners. Harris currently mentors a woman from Afghanistan who wants to become a consultant to female business owners. "It would be hard to count the actual number of women Darcie has helped," Cyndy Hoenig, public relations specialist in Oklahoma City, wrote in nominating Harris. "The number of lives she has touched is in the thousands." Harris 12 years ago founded EWF International, a company that offers peer advisory groups, coaching and consulting for female business owners and executives. The company has licensed branches in Tulsa and in Colorado. Before launching EWF, Harris managed a 24-hour crisis help line with a staff of five and 250 volunteers that helped with recovery after the Oklahoma City bombing in April 1995. She has held positions in sales, marketing and management and is a regular editorial columnist for The Journal Record newspaper.

WASHINGTON - To Americans who watch China closely, the arrest of a coffee-shop-owning Canadian couple this week fits a familiar pattern.
They point to domestic Chinese politics to explain the openly Christian family's arrest on espionage charges.
China's new leaders have adopted a broad two-fold strategy for maintaining public support for the ruling party, they say: tighten discipline internally, and play the nationalist card against outside forces.
The detention of Kevin Garratt, 54, and Julia Dawn Garratt, 53, might serve both general objectives, they say. The case has received ample media attention in the United States and elsewhere in the world.
Robert Daly, the head of the Kissinger Institute on China and the United States, said it's hard to imagine that actual spies would be operating in a highly conspicuous coffee shop on the main drag of a remote, politically sensitive, tightly monitored city along the North Korean border.
But their arrest sends tough political messages, Daly noted.
He placed it in the context of China's raids on Microsoft and Daimler; corruption charges against the vanished leader Zhou Yongkang; the disappearance of television host Rui Chenggang; crackdowns on scholars, media, think tanks, and NGOs; and an ongoing campaign vilifying Western thought.
"The leaders that ordered the arrest knew that it would be another blow to China's soft power," said Daly, a former diplomat who heads the China institute out of Washington's Wilson Center think-tank.
"That they went ahead with it indicates that they are playing not to world opinion but to a domestic audience. If this analysis is correct, the Communist Party's goal is to demonstrate to the Chinese people that it is not cowed by the accusation that Chinese hackers attacked the Canadian National Research Council."
The spat with Canada comes after a similar tit-for-tat with the United States.
When the U.S. announced criminal charges in May against five members of the Chinese military for corporate spying, Beijing called in the American ambassador, threatened retaliation, and accused the U.S. of hypocrisy given its own recently revealed penchant for widespread espionage.
The Chinese have brushed off the American distinction of spying for corporate gain, versus their spying for counter-terrorism purposes as revealed by the torrent of Edward Snowden leaks.
One academic who's releasing a book on Chinese cyber-espionage says it's also true that other countries spy on businesses.
In fact, said Jon Lindsay, the U.S.'s 1996 Economic Espionage Act was prompted by incidents involving staunch American allies — France, Germany, Japan, South Korea, and Israel. But in the nine foreign-espionage cases where the act has been applied, eight have a connection to Chinese companies.
Lindsay said a frequent object of Western suspicion is China's State High-Tech Development Plan — better known as the "863 Program," which has been linked to people involved in corporate espionage cases.
Might this program have been stealing material from Canada's National Research Council, touching off the current dispute?
"There's lots of pieces of the Chinese state that might be interested in cutting-edge science and technology from the West," said Lindsay, a University of California academic who co-wrote and co-edited the upcoming book, "China and Cybersecurity: Espionage, Strategy, and Politics in the Digital Domain."
"It's reasonable to surmise that 863 might be involved, but there's no proof."
What is clear, he said, is that the Chinese leadership is increasingly intolerant of accusations from abroad.
Members of the ruling party are even believed to have crafted a strategy document that lists seven threats to their continued leadership and, according to a version that has leaked out publicly, most of the so-called "Seven Perils" refer to Western influence.
Lindsay said there's now a crackdown on purported hostile foreign forces — not just political dissenters, but also religious minorities. He said the espionage accusations might serve as a handy pretext to rein in the Garratts.
In addition to operating their coffee shop, the Christian couple routinely provided humanitarian aid to orphanages and nursing homes in North Korea, and hosted Sunday services at their home.
"There is a real effort to crack down on discipline and try and buttress the party's standing. There's a fear that the increasing globalization and growth of China, coupled with a potential economic slowdown, could undermine the legitimacy of the Chinese Communist Party," he said.
"So having hostile foreign forces, if you will, as a scapegoat to sort of distract attention from these issues while simultaneously buttressing discipline is a convenient way to make sure the regime maintains its hold on power."

I stayed at the Bellagio, in a deluxe room, with a friend for 3 nights. The room was beautiful, very clean and we were offered turn down service each night in addition to daily cleaning that was always done discreetly. We never had staff knocking on our door to get in and change out towels. They always waited until we were out and about before slipping in and straightening up which is something I appreciate. The hotel staff in the restaurants, and generally throughout, we're helpful and polite. Security was excellent and no one was allowed near the elevators that didn't have a room key. I cannot really say enough about the amazing restaurants and lounges, they were wonderful and the food/drinks were amazing. I would definitely return to the Bellagio if going to Vegas.

SAG-AFTRA Reaches Deal with BeeAudio
SAG-AFTRA today announced it has reached an agreement with audiobook producer BeeAudio. The BeeAudio deal is the latest in a series of efforts by SAG-AFTRA to enhance its organizing reach in the area of audiobooks.
In November of 2012, SAG-AFTRA issued "Do Not Work Notice" against the Ashland, Oregon based company that was producing books for various major publishers paying half or less than half the industry standard rate to narrators.
Under this new contract, audiobook narrators will be paid industry-standard rates ranging from $150 to $240 per completed hour of work. This deal affects the more than 200 audiobook professionals currently on BeeAudio's roster.
"We are thrilled to have an agreement with BeeAudio," said Jane Love, SAG-AFTRA Audiobook negotiator. "It makes sense for the company, the narrators, and the industry and we look forward to working with everyone at BeeAudio going forward."
"The relationship between BeeAudio and SAG-AFTRA began with a series of misunderstandings which have been amicably resolved," said James Adams, Founder and CEO of BeeAudio. "We are in The Middle of a publishing revolution and that clearly involves audiobooks. It's vital that innovative entrepreneurial companies like BeeAudio and unions like SAG-AFTRA work together to steer a steady course for the benefit of the consumer, business and union members."
The agreement with BeeAudio marks the 27th audiobook producer organized since 2008.

Having changed his name to avoid confusion with the popular Jamaican dancehall artist, Sean P of the YoungBloodZ has leaked another song from his upcoming solo album Watch Me Do My Thang, called Good Look. Over a beat courtesy of super-producer Scott Storch (who worked with YBZ on Chop Chop) Sean brags yet again about his deep pockets, his pimped-out rides, and most of all, his swagger, which gets all the fellas hatin' and the ladies flockin'. Reggae vocals from Junior Reid help to give Good Look a widespread appeal and Jive Records knows more than anyone that he'll need it to be successful.

SALT LAKE CITY — State lawmakers moved a step closer Wednesday to making human sexuality instruction in Utah public schools abstinence-only or nothing at all.
After long and sometimes uncomfortable debate, the House passed an amended version of HB363. It now moves to the Senate. One amendment restricts teaching about sexual intercourse and erotic behavior and prohibits the advocacy of sex outside marriage, contraceptives and homosexuality.
Parents should be the ones who teach their children about sex, said Rep. Bill Wright, R-Holden.
"I am not comfortable turning these sensitive subjects over to somebody else," he said. "Why would you ask somebody to do something you could do for yourself?"
The measure, which passed 45-28, also included an amendment requiring local school districts that choose to develop abstinence-only curriculum do it in consultation with parents.
Classroom instruction would stress the importance of abstinence from all sexual activity before marriage and fidelity after marriage as the only sure methods of preventing certain communicable diseases, according to the bill.
Wright said he began looking into changing the law after he saw materials developed by Planned Parenthood being used as part of maturation programs at some schools in the state. He also disagreed with a slideshow that the State Office of Education developed about contraception because it showed pictures and brands of condoms.
Rep. Brian King, D-Salt Lake, a father of four daughters, questions whether parents actually teach their children about sex.
"We've all done that, right? Really?" he said. "In truth, few of us are up to the task of teaching our kids about sex."
The bill, King said, deprives the public schools of teaching things parents don't want or know how to teach their children.
School districts currently set their own standards for human sexuality instruction, but local school board policy may not exceed what is allowed under state law.
Four school districts offer abstinence-only curriculum: Canyons, Jordan, Nebo and Provo. State law allows abstinence-based instruction. "Teachers are required to present a strong abstinence message, but the law allows instruction in areas of contraception and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases," according to the Utah State Office of Education website.
The policy requires parents to sign "opt in" permission slips allowing their child's participation. Utah is one of three states with that requirement.
Rep. Lynn Hemingway, D-Salt Lake, wondered what an abstinence-only curriculum sounds like. "If you're talking about abstinence, what do you talk about?" he said.
Wright said there's plenty to talk about.
Rather than talking about "how to have sex and how to get away with it," teaching could focus on friendship, dating and love. It could address the downside of sex outside marriage such as sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancies, he said. The largest indicator of poverty is single-parent families, he said.
"Why don't we just be honest with our children and tell them right up front that sex outside of marriage is devastating. There is no evidence that it is nothing else," he said.
Wright said teachers would still be able to answer questions from students who want more information as long as the exchange stays within the bounds of state law. But, he said, he hopes they would do it outside class.
"What I would not want to happen is that one student in 30 asks some pretty promiscuous questions and the teacher is forced to respond in front of the 29 other students," he said.
The debate took an uneasy turn when Rep. Jen Seelig, D-Salt Lake, asked a question of the sponsor of the amendment prohibiting advocacy of certain behaviors.
"Could you describe erotic behavior for me please?" she asked Rep. Ken Ivory, R-West Jordan.
Ivory said he'd leave that to Seelig since she has run bills on the subject.
"I think that gets to my point. Erotic behavior is subjective," she said. "Some people would consider applying lip gloss erotic behavior. In turn, what would the advocacy of that be?"
Seelig said it's unfair to teachers, parents, and students when there is no clear line of what can or cannot be discussed.
Rep. Francis Gibson, R-Mapleton, said he hopes advocates of abstinence-only don't ignore that the state has a problem with teen pregnancy.
"I hope as we make this decision we realize that it's not so simple as to say, 'Abstinence-only: We hope that fairy dust has been sprinkled and teen pregnancy is no longer a problem.'"

GL: What do you love most about your character Phoebe?
Kira: She's a math nerd kind of dorky, which I can relate
to. She really cares about her school, and that's totally cool to me since
she's also a superhero.
Judging by some of the pics we've seen, part of your
wardrobe is pretty hilarious. Care to elaborate on any of them?
Well, recently Jack Griffo [who plays Max, Phoebe's twin
brother] and I both had to wear this cow costume. We were in our polka dotted
pants and suspenders, walking around set. It was hilarious.
Speaking of Jack, what's one thing fans might be surprised
to learn about him?
Jack and I have actually known each other for a really long
time before the show. We both moved to California to act at basically the same
time. And he actually went to the first commercial audition that I ever went to
[years ago]. His mom took us…we carpooled.
That's adorable! Well if you and Jack were sibs in real
life, what's something you'd tease him about?
It's so funny. Since we've been working on this show
together, we've totally become brother and sister. We pick on each other all
the time about our laughs because we both have really loud distinct ones. Like,
if you hear them in a room, you know it's us and we can impersonate each
other's spot-on at this point.
Clearly, super powers play a big theme in this show. If you
could have any super power right now, which would you want?
You know what, I wish that I had the ability to function on
only like two hours of sleep. There's just not enough time in the day to dance,
act, sing, see all of my friends…do all the things that I love to do. So if I
could just cut down that nine or 10 hours a night of sleeping, it would be
Who's one fictional superhero you think is awesome?
Superman. He can do everything!
What about one fictional super villain you secretly love?
Ursula from The Little Mermaid. There's something so creepy about her that I just love.

How To Make Hamster Toys
Part of the joy of having a hamster is to see it go about its business in the cage and playing with toys, so nothing can be more fun than learning how to make hamster toys and watch your pet play with them. You may use household objects to make hamster toys, which are more economical and environmentally friendly than purchasing toys at a pet shop.
Things you need:
- Cereal box
- Paper towel roll
- Scissors
- File folder
- Shredded paper
- Empty food can
- Cardboard boxes in various sizes
Hide-and-Seek Box: This one of the easiest hamster toys you can make at home.
- Cut several holes on an empty cereal box.
- Tape the box to one side of the cage.
- You may also let your hamster play with the box in a playpen.
Hamster Maze: With multiple cardboard boxes, you will be able to make hamster toys that not only engage your pet, but also entertain you and your family.
- Cut holes in the boxes so that you can link the boxes together using a cardboard tunnel you obtain from used paper towel.
- Extend the maze according to your preference.
- Place your hamster in the maze so it can begin its exploration!
Play Tubes: With simple file folders, you can create hamster toys that will intrigue your furry little friend.
- Cut a folder into rectangles of desired sizes and number. This will determine how many tubes you can make and how big they will be.
- Roll the cut-out pieces to form the shape of a tube.
- Use strong masking tape to hold the tubes in shape.
Hamster Nest: Hamsters enjoy burrowing and you can make hamster toys according to their nature.
- Smoothen the edge of an empty food can.
- Place shredded paper in the can.
- Place it in your hamster's cage or in the playpen.
Learning how to make hamster toys is fun and simple. In addition to the above suggestions, you can also use your creativity to create a more fun environment for your hamster.
- Hamsters chew and eat almost everything. Make sure that the hamster toys are safe and will not lead to suffocation or intoxication.

Darling calls for tougher global regulation
Thursday 08 January 2009
The Government set out part of the agenda for April's global economic summit of the G20 nations yesterday, stressing the need for "tougher global financial regulation".
In a letter to fellow G20 finance ministers, the Chancellor, Alistair Darling said: "The ability of the financial system to perform its critical role in the economy – allocating capital, managing risk and facilitating transactions – has been badly undermined... Our first objective should be therefore to return trust and confidence to financial markets."
However, Mr Darling said much less about the more pressing questions of global coordination of fiscal and monetary policy – issues that have provoked tensions both between nations, most notably in the recent spat between the German and British governments, and within national authorities, as witnessed in the recent Westminster speculation about the Bank of England's supposed opposition to Gordon Brown's plans to "print money".
Mr Darling will find more scope for agreement on reforming the international regulatory system after the banking crises that have engulfed the world's banks. Even so, there may be some argument between the European authorities, who tend to favour tighter regulation, and the US and UK ones, traditionally more inclined to a lighter touch. Much depends on the attitude of the incoming US Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner. During his time running the New York Federal Reserve, Mr Geithner was not noted for his enthusiasm for "early warning systems" of the kind repeatedly called for by Mr Brown.
Mr Darling's remarks in his letter that "we must recognise that we neither could nor should operate in a zero failure regime. This is sensible recognition that regulation will never prevent all failures" are in tune with Mr Geithner's philosophy.
Mr Darling also shows himself conscious that recent market failures may undermine confidence in the market system more widely: "The financial system delivers capital – the life-blood of economic growth – to the real economy and no other better system has been developed than financial markets for allocating capital or managing risk."
The 2 April summit at Downing Street will be a follow-up to November's financial crisis summit in Washington, this time with the fresh leadership of Barack Obama. The G20 includes emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil as well as the major Western nations.

Gov't approves copayments for independent psychotherapy
group psychotherapy, psychology, support group 370.
(photo credit:Thinkstock/Imagebank)
Despite opposition from some MKs and professional groups in the mental health
field, the Knesset Finance Committee on Monday decided that people who need
psychotherapy techniques not included among treatments at health fund mental-health clinics will have to pay partial out-of-pocket fees to independent
therapists.The proposal was requested by Prime Minister Binyamin
Netanyahu, who is also formally the health minister.The copayments will
be NIS 50 for the first appointment and NIS 120 for each subsequent treatment.
The copayment for group therapy will be NIS 55 per session. The rates will go
into effect on July 1, 2015, the same date that the health funds officially take
over mental health care from the Health Ministry.At present, there are
no substantial fees, but queues for treatment are very long.The
committee also decided that for a visit to a clinic psychiatrist, copayments
will be charged at the same rate as ordinary copayments for medical specialists
and be included in the arrangement, setting a maximum in copayments by family
members for each quarter.Deputy Health Minister Ya'acov Litzman, who
presented the request, said that the rates reflected those previously approved
for Maccabi Health Services. Outgoing ministry deputy director-general Dr. Yoel
Lipschitz, who supervises health funds and supplementary health insurance, told
the committee that the copayments involved only those made to independent
therapists and not those who work for the health fund. Copayments for mental
health care will be the same as those presently collected by specialist
physicians treating physical conditions.But the decision did not please
everyone. Abarbanel Mental Health Center social worker Hanna Yitzhaki said that
the fees "create discrimination against patients needing psychotherapy. The
charge is per visit and not per quarter. It will be easier to give these
patients psychoactive medications that will drug them so they won't have to pay
much more for talk therapy. They will avoid going for treatments."She
added that people with psychiatric problems usually don't have the means to
finance their treatments."In countries where treatments are provided
privately, many troubled people live in the streets, and this is very harmful to
society," Yizhaki said.Mordechai Basson, representing families of
patients at Abarbanel, was furious about the new regulations and "other bad
decisions" in this field over the years."Permission for the health funds
to charge copayments [for outside therapists] is only a continuation of the
policy that harms psychiatric patients."Hanna Strum Cohen, the chairman
of the Psychologists and Social Workers Forum, complained that such the decision
was made so fast."These are high prices for those who won't go to health
fund clinics. Has somebody checked how many such clinics there will be and their
locations? The rules will create an impossible situation for patients, many of
whom will forgo psychiatric treatment."Knesset Health Lobby chairman MK
Rachel Adatto (Kadima), who is a physician by profession, also voiced her
opposition to the charge of the copayments.Finance Committee chairman
Moshe Gafni, of Litzman's United Torah Judaism party, voiced his support for the
prime minister's request, "which is supported by the deputy health minister,"
after Gafni said he checked with Health Ministry personnel."This is
copayment only for those who are referred to external therapists, and the state
will ensure there are enough psychotherapists for patients [at health fund
clinics]," he said.

The Space Between - Physical
When you started out as a parent, chances are you felt completely unprepared to deal with the challenges of a child. But at some point in your journey, you've probably found yourself feeling confident in your parenting role and abilities. The routine and predictability of your child's life became manageable and fairly easy to navigate. Now that your child is a teenager (or soon-to-be teen), you may be feeling overwhelmed at times with fear, confusion, frustration, and a lack of understanding. It almost feels like you're starting all over with a screaming, needy, and sometimes whiny child (only
taller and with more attitude!). The changes of adolescence, while normal for every teen, feel completely abnormal to parents and teenagers, often leaving you feeling like a helpless bystander. But you're not alone, and there is hope to help you (and your teen) get through these challenging, changing years. For more than 30 years, Dr. Walt Mueller has studied adolescents and the culture they're surrounded by. His expertise was put to the test when his own children became teenagers. Now he's bringing wisdom from research and his own experience to help other parents through the tumultuous years of adolescence. With empathy and practical tools, this book will help you understand the changes your teen is experiencing, and help you effectively parent them as you explore how to: create a smoother adolescent period for your teen begin to break through the walls of confusion, fear, frustration, and misunderstanding be a positive and proactive bridge-builder into the life and world of your teenager Dr. Walt Mueller is the founder and president of the Center for Parent/Youth Understanding, a nonprofit ministry organization that has served churches, schools, and community organizations worldwide for more than 30 years. He's a sought-after authority on youth culture and family issues and has appeared on CNN, Fox News, and the BBC.

Hoya 82mm HRT Circular PL Polarizer Multi-Coated Glass Filter
The Hoya HRT Circular Polarizing (Cir-PL) Ultraviolet (UV) Multi-Coated Filters eliminate reflections from nonmetallic surfaces and increases contrast and color saturation such as water and glass. This filter uses a newly developed High-Rate Transparency film that passes more visible light through the filter while still filtering the same amount of polarized light. The HOYA HRT circular polarizer filter transmits as
as 25% more light through the polarizing film giving the photographer about 1/3 stop more light than a standard circular polarizer. The HRT polarizer which combines a UV Filter with the latest generation in circular polarizing films apparently developed for 3D cinema glasses. The result is a lighter tint in the filter as it lets more light through and also less of a blue cast while the UV filtration moderates blue cast. Hoya HRT Cir-PL UV filters are optimized for use with digital SLR cameras but they are also perfect for traditional 35mm SLR applications including black and white photography.

Bison Jerky
We thought artisanal jerky couldn't get
healthier, then we found Roaming Acres Farm in northwestern New Jersey. We're long-time fans of Todd Appelbaum's ostrich jerky (it was one of our first products at Mouth!), and now he's raising bison as well. Todd's animals are free-range, pasture- (grass) fed and raised with respect. Like ostrich, bison is low-calorie with virtually no fat; it's also exceptionally high in iron and vitamin B-12. And delicious. tip of the tongue Bison are one of the last evolutionary links to the Pleistocene era, which began 1.8 million years ago (how cool is that?!). There's a grassroots campaign to make the bison the official national mammal and celebrate Bison day on November 2. We're definitely in favor! Learn more at www.votebison.org.

This fortified mix of high fiber hay, healthful whole grains, and dried veggies and fruits is just what your chinchilla needs to live a happy, healthy life. Fiesta MAX chinchilla food is full of nutrients essential to your small pet's health, including: balanced Omega-3 fatty acids that help develop healthy coats; antioxidants to boost the immune system and fight illness; and insoluble fiber to keep that digestive system on track.Chinchilla owners know that their little furry friend has a particularly sensitive digestive system. High moisture and super fatty foods, those that chinchillas are not naturally accustomed to eating, can make them ill. That's why top quality Kaytee Fiesta MAX Food for Chinchillas is designed with a variety of fortified nutritional ingredients to give your small pet just what she needs. The high fiber portions of this chinchilla food are good for her, and the sweeter dried foods taste good to her. The balance of healthy fiber and tasty treats keeps her eating what's good for her but doesn't hurt her little tummy.In the wild, chinchillas have adapted to survive on little because food can be sparse in their mountain habitats. Similarly, their domesticated relatives are naturally light eaters, so it can be easy to overfeed a pet chinchilla. It's important to give her only as
chinchilla food as is recommended by the manufacturer (usually just a couple of tablespoons per day). Kaytee Fiesta MAX Food for Chinchillas is available in a 2.5 pound resealable package; store it in a cool, dry place or freeze it for long term use!

The Healing
My pain is deep, so deep no water on earth compares
no mountain can bear my weight of grief I carry
no volcano can erupt as my heart
can from its deepest despair
no stars can blind like that from the light of death
no tree I climb will take me to heaven's gate to you
no prayer will bring you back to my side again
no miracle can be asked for, but understanding
no loss is greater than the loss of a child
but within my silence I find my sight
serenity and strength to peel back the layers of grief
to heal my burning body of heartache
and turn my darkened world to a brighter one.
