Students complete career readiness program
MONTPELIER — At just 15, Shaylee Martin knows she wants to become a preschool teacher. Taylor Beaudet, 16, is interested in graphic design. And Dylan Martin, 17, a senior, plans to be a truck driver after high school.
They are among 11 Williamstown High School students who have completed a 15-week pilot program run by their school and the Community College of Vermont to get them ready for work or college after high school. The school was among six in Vermont that were awarded grants in the fall of 2011 to engage in innovative learning.
During the fall and winter, the Williamstown students learned how to put together resumes and an online portfolio of themselves and worked on computer, speaking and collaboration skills. They took tests to assess their achievements in reading and math. And they did some of that outside of school, at Community College on Vermont.
"We weren't just stuck in the classroom five days a week," Martin said. "We actually got to go to CCV and try different things."
On Thursday, Gov. Peter Shumlin presented them with the Governor's Career Ready Certificates at the Statehouse. Later they met with legislators to talk about what they've learned.
Beadet said she and some other students impressed perspective employers at a technology job fair in Winooski when they handed out their resumes for possible summer internships.
"They were impressed with the resumes because they hadn't seen many kids actually had resumes with them," she said. She doesn't have job experience to list but can tell potential employers what she's interested in and good at.
The program is part of a move to find different ways to engage kids in their learning, said Williamstown High School Principal Scott Lang.
"We're a rural, pretty poor community with not a lot of families who are educated. So for many of our kids it's a first experience," he said.
The Legislature is considering a bill that would combine and expand secondary school programs including dual enrollment and early college to increase the number of students completing school and help prepare them for life after high school.
"It offers a lot of different choices for kids. It keeps them engaged," said Johannah Donovan, chairwoman of the House Education Committee. "Oftentimes it gets these kids working toward a future and they actually have concrete plans."MORE IN This Just InBARRE The mid-November deadline has passed and the resumes are all in, but the number of...

With used cars, its all about what is available locally and what condition it is when you are looking. If I were you I would spend some time exploring private parties, seeing what's available used near you for cheap and see if you can pick up something fantastic cheap. That is instead of picking a particular kind of car and then searching.
That said, being that you are in Florida so not in need of AWD, you can likely do better than a WRX. I know that back when I was an STi owner, and active on the Subaru forums, that any Suby with a turbo offered after 2007 had engine reliability issues. That was one of the reasons for not buying another STI. The other was I could not find one locally that was not modded to hell, returned to stock, and clearly beaten on by its owner. Ditto with used Evos. Which, if you are considering a WRX you should also consider.

Diagnostic techniques used for IAQ evaluations are usually
divided into a qualitative and a quantitative phase.73 Instrumentation
used during the qualitative IAQ evaluation is limited and is
intended primarily to supplement the investigators visual observations.
Direct-reading instruments are used to measure relative
humidity, room temperature, O3, CO, CO2, and particulate
concentrations. The qualitative evaluation for microbial contaminants
includes an assessment of the building and heating, ventilating,
and air-conditioning (HVAC) system for water damage and
moisture problems, including condensation and the presence of
visible mold or musty odors indicative of mVOCs.26 The qualitative
evaluation for VOCs includes an observance of odors, building
renovation, specialized office equipment, pressed wood
products, and cleaning products used. Methodologies for collecting
and culturing dust, bulk, and air sampling are discussed in
more detail elsewhere.73,74 Environmental testing should be restricted
to specific situations that warrant further assessment of
the relationship between IAQ and clinical symptoms.
Building procedures
The allergy specialist should have some familiarity with
building a healthy home because patients are frequently presenting
with health complaints related to poor IAQ attributed to their
home or workplace. The 3 primary considerations in improving
IAQ are (1) evaluation of construction failures that allow moisture
into the walls of a building, (2) poor ventilation causing excessive
humidity and accumulation of gaseous and/or chemical exposure
from materials in the living space, and (3) poorly designed or
failing HVAC systems that contribute to poor air circulation. An
extensive overview of building sciences and the guidelines for
new home construction can be found at http://www.healthhouse.
org. Building a healthy home should take into account costs versus
energy savings and improved health outcomes. Further studies
are needed to confirm the health benefits of healthy home
IAQ standards
In contrast with the industrial workplace setting, quantitative
standards for chemical, biological, and particulate exposures as
well as ventilation requirements have not been well established
and are not routinely monitored. Although some government
entities provide guidelines related to IAQ concerns, these generally
take the form of recommendations for the control or
elimination of sources and strategies for exposure reduction,
rather than for achieving pollutant levels below some specific air
concentration (Table I). Legislation such as Clean Indoor Air acts
ban or restrict smoking in workplaces and in public places and reduce
exposures to ETS for workers and patrons.75 The Environmental
Protection Agencys IAQ Tools for Schools program
addresses IAQ management in schools by providing guidance
for those aspects of building maintenance, housekeeping, and
daily school operations that can influence IAQ, such as the importance
of preventing water intrusion; carefully selecting, using,
and storing cleaning and pesticide products; and ensuring proper
ventilation. This program also provides resources and strategies
for remediation of allergen and irritant-induced IAQ problems
and strategies to maintain good IAQ over time.76 These voluntary
programs are gaining widespread acceptance.76
This review was prepared with the goal of providing allergists
with a balanced perception of indoor pollution and how to apply
this information in the evaluation of individual patients who
present with suspected symptoms arising from poor IAQ. As the
patients foremost advocate, the allergy consultant should be
prepared to acquire and maintain expertise in environmental
factors that directly affect genetic susceptibilities inherent in
allergic diseases. Evaluation of an individual patients exposure
also requires that the allergist be familiar with methodologies for
monitoring IAQ and interpreting results in the context of the
patients exposure history. Finally, the allergist should be informed
about existing indoor and outdoor air quality standards with the
goal of advising patients about rational environmental control

White House threatens veto on Oregon lands bill
Sep 18, 2013
By JEFF BARNARD
Of the Associated Press
GRANTS PASS — The White House is threatening to veto a bill to boost logging on national forests, including a provision aimed at producing more money for timber counties in Oregon.
The Statement of Administration Policy issued Wednesday by the Office of Management and Budget says if the bill were presented to President Obama, his senior advisers would recommend a veto.
The bill includes a provision developed by members of the Oregon delegation to turn over half the so-called O&C lands in Western Oregon to a state-appointed trust that would manage them for timber production. The other half would be managed for fish and wildlife habitat, and includes creation of new wilderness areas. The measure includes a federal subsidy for timber counties until the logging revenues start to come in.
The administration says that would harm habitat for endangered species, increase the chance of lawsuits, and limit the president's ability to create national monuments.
The bill could hit the House floor for debate as early as Thursday, said Andrew Malcolm, an aide to Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., a co-sponsor of the bill.
Since 1937, the so-called O&C counties have received half the gross revenues from timber cut on a patchwork of federal lands in Western Oregon that reverted to the federal government after the bankruptcy of the Oregon and California Railroad.
When logging was booming in the 1970s, some counties did not have to charge property taxes. But since logging cutbacks were implemented on federal lands in the 1990s to protect the northern spotted owl and salmon, the payments have dropped precipitously. A federal safety net to make up for the drop has expired, and two counties face possible bankruptcy if voters don't approve tax increases.
Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., chief sponsor of the O&C lands provision, said if he were president, he would also threaten a veto, due to the controversial nature of three of the bill's four provisions, which are expected to die in the Senate.
He added he has negotiated in good faith for the best deal he can get from the Republican majority. He said he still hopes his O&C provision can move on to the Senate, where Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., can make changes that will make it acceptable to other Democratic senators, as well as the White House.
Walden said the White House fails to understand what is happening in rural communities throughout the West.
"Mills are closing, counties are literally going broke, and wildfire season seems to get worse and worse every year," he said in a statement. "The status quo isn't working. This broken system has to change. "
Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., is chief sponsor of the overall bill. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The veto threat was good news for conservationists who have opposed DeFazio on the plan for the O&C counties from the start.
"I think this letter is a signal that the DeFazio bill and the Hastings provisions are dead on arrival in the Senate," said Steve Pedery, conservation director for Oregon Wild. "And I hope it allows Ron Wyden to start a more adult conversation about a practical, rational approach to how to fund counties without sacrificing clean water, wildlife and the tourism and recreation economy Oregon depends on."
Randi Spivak, a spokeswoman for the Center for Biological Diversity, said the veto threat marked a big change for Obama, who has not been green on national forest policy.
"This strong statement finally puts them on record for protecting the public forests, endangered species, clean water and the laws that are meant to protect these values," she said.

When Sony Ericsson launched the Xperia Mini back in 2010, it really wasn't the best smartphone around. And it really was the only tiny phone around, which is why it didn't get beat there as well. However, developers at Sony Ericsson are certainly not the ones who go through the denial phase. Good thing, because that probably makes them more receptive to genuine feedback, rather than taking it as an ego issue. They went back to the drawing board, tweaked a few things, overhauled some other things, and basically put in an earnest effort at improving the product.
Look & Feel
The updated Xperia Mini is slightly bigger than the predecessor. Quite obvious, since the older one had a 2.55-inch display, but the new one has a 3.0-inch one. We appreciate this bump up in the size, since it affords a more comfortable platform for touchscreen use.
The power key sits on the top panel, with the notification LED right next to it. The bottom panel has the micro USB port and the 3.5mm audio jack. The USB port has a nice cover on it, and while it isn't very solid, it is one of the better ones we have seen so far. However, the two seem to be placed a little too close, and connecting both simultaneously will be a bit of a wire twisting experience. The right side panel has the camera key and the volume rocker, on the chrome strip. The left side panel has the chrome strip as well, but has been left untouched otherwise.
On the rear panel is the 5MP camera, with the LED flash on top. The nice rubberized finish is quite helpful when gripping the phone. And don't let anyone kid you that it isn't necessary, because this tiny phone has the tendency of wriggling out of your hands if you aren't careful. However, we do not like the side pulling out mechanism for the battery cover. It is just uncomfortable and the risk of the plastic teeth holding it down in place may snap, if you are a little too harsh with it.
Overall, the phone fits well in the hand, and is possibly the most comfortable one to use with one hand. The good build quality gives it a premium feel, something that is sorely missing from most phones in this price bracket.
The updated Xperia Mini does have a lot of interesting stuff. The 1GHz processor is paired with 512MB of RAM. While we would usually criticize 'just' 512MB, but keeping the price in mind, we don't really mind. The OS is now the latest one available- Android Gingerbread 2.3, something that really helps this phone stand out in the crowd. None of the rivals in this price category (except its own QWERTY version sibling- the Mini Pro) offers Android 2.3 yet.
The slightly bigger display on this version just makes it every so slightly more comfortable to use, while retaining the ultra-compact form factor. The Bravia Engine display feature that we saw on the Xperia Arc is also available with this phone now.
Speaking of which, the Timescape UI has come a long way since we first saw it. The Xperia Mini also has the app shortcuts on all four edges of the display- Corner UI. Now you can set up to four icons in any of the four clusters. Five home screens to spread the widgets around. What hasn't changed is that natively, Timescape supports connectivity to Twitter and Facebook. More services haven't been integrated yet.
[RELATED_ARTICLE]With the 1GHz Qualcomm QSD8255 Snapdragon processor powering the Xperia Mini, paired with 512MB of RAM, the Xperia Mini isn't a slouch. On the contrary, it seems to be one of the best performers out there, at least in this price category. It doesn't get bogged down when we install apps on it, and only slightly slower when you have a bunch of apps running in the background. But then again, background apps do cause all phones to become a bit sluggish, even the really high-end ones. However, what helps the Xperia Mini is the UI isn't as heavy as the HTC Sense. No wonder HTC phones tend to become sluggish under the same usage scenario we put this through.
The 3.0-inch display is the LED backlit display with a resolution of 320x480 pixels. While this is a slight bump up, size wise, from the predecessor, it still keeps the Mini well inside the tiny smartphone category. However, typing out an SMS just became a lot more comfortable. Scrolling through the app list becomes less of an "opened an app by accident" exercise. The display is quite crisp, and despite the small size, we were impressed by how well text was handled. No needs to squint to read the name of the app you want to open or the number of the person you want to call.
Camera performance is a bit of a disappointment though. Images are not very crisp, and lack the detailing we expected from a camera in this price category.
Battery life is quite un-SE-esque! This one lasts a day and a half, from full charge to complete discharge. Well, the usage included quite a few voice calls, constant connectivity to either Wi-Fi or EDGE and the inevitable WhatsApp chats. Not bad, considering that in the present day, this kind of battery backup solidly falls in the good category. This phone has a 1200mAh battery, to be precise.
Our Take
For a box price of just over Rs 13k, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini is a phone worth considering. Assuming of course that you are comfortable with the tiny (well, we are being spoilt by those 4-inch displays) display. The performance is very good. The build quality has improved leaps and bounds from what we saw with the predecessor. And of course, the specifications are a lot better than what the rivals offer – 1GHz processor, 512MB RAM, Android 2.3 and a UI that is visually appealing and doesn't slow down the phone. If a matchbox sized Android smartphone is all you want, this may just be the phone to consider. Or consider its sibling - the Xperia Mini Pro with the slide-out QWERTY keypad.

Museums Don't Seal Garments – Neither Should You
Similar to museum heirloom dress storage, our Museum Method™ wedding dress preservation uses a Cotton Bag Hanging method of wedding gown preservation that will keep your gown in better condition than boxing or sealing it.
Museum Method™
Wedding Gown Preservation Benefits
- Your gown is easily accessible. You can inspect your gown to ensure that it has been cleaned to your satisfaction and admire it any time you like.
- Your dress is protected from damage from wrinkles and creases. Fabric, like paper, is weakened from folding, often resulting in tears or permanent creases. With Museum Method creases and wrinkles are almost non-existent!
- Your dress is protected from acid migration. The acid-free and lignin free tissue or cotton muslin fill (depending on which package you select) absorbs acid which could damage your gown.
- Your dress fabric can breathe! Museum conservators all agree that heirloom garments need to breathe. Our cotton cover does not seal in any moisture or chemicals, thus reducing the risk of damage from mildew or chemicals.
- Your wedding gown preservation bag can be personalized! You can choose to add a custom label to your preservation bag with the bride and groom's names, and wedding date and location on it. It is ironed onto the bag's front pocket to personalize it.
7. You can store a wedding photo and a a written story of your special day in the back pocket of the preservation bag.
8. Strapless gowns can also be preserved in a preservation bag. We will sew cotton straps into the lining of the gown to hang it. And the gown is very well supported with acid-free tissue in the bodice as well.

November 27, 2014
Meridian, Miss. It has been two weeks since tornadoes left their brutal mark and devastation all across Mississippi, but relief is continually flowing. Mississippi state Rep. Greg Snowden was on hand at the monthly Lauderdale County Council of Governments meting to discuss the recent special session held in Jackson. The session was for those affected by the April 28 tornadoes.
"The governor called the legislature in to special session last Thursday at 1 o'clock," said Snowden." I'm proud to say we finished our work in three hours and at the end of those three hours, we approved an appropriation of about $17 million. The money will be for disaster relief, to communities throughout the state that were hit by the tornadoes late last month."
The $17 million is set aside to aid counties that have been declared federal disaster areas by President Obama.
"The money will be used for debris removal primarily and also by local governments for preparedness and even reimbursement for things they did in advance of the storms," said Snowden. "Primarily, though, for debris removal."
There were a dozen counties in the state that received significant damage from the tornadoes and the money provided by the state is a way to alleviate the burden of recovering.
"Basically what we did as part of our legislative package, was to provide from the state level all of the money the localities would otherwise need to match the federal funds," said Snowden. "So the state has stepped in and picked up not only the state match, but the localities' match."
Twenty-three twisters touched down in Mississippi, damaging over 1200 homes, and 200 businesses, as well as injuring numerous victims and killing 14 people.

Smoked Turkey Barbecue Sandwiches
Smoked turkey stands in well for barbecued pork in a Carolina-style sandwich. The hot, vinegary sauce adds moisture to reheated turkey, which makes for some very fine drippings over coleslaw. More

Northern-style cornbread is defined by a sweetness and moistness that more closely resembles cake than bread. This recipes gives you all that, plus a deeply browned, crisp Southern-style crust. More
If you've never had New Orleans-style barbecued shrimp, you're forgiven for thinking you're about to see a recipe for shrimp swamped in smoky-sweet BBQ sauce. Instead, get ready for a spicy, vinegary, garlicky, wow-that's-a-lot-of-butter sauce, and have a crusty piece of bread on hand to soak up every last drop when the shrimp are gone. More
Asian flavors seem to bring out the best in pork. So if you're working with a gorgeous rack of grilled baby back ribs, dousing them in gingery, orangey, soy sauce is a pretty great way to go, like in this recipe from The Big-Flavor Grill, by Chris Schlesinger and John Willoughby. More
So, tell me, how do you feel about steak, prepped and grilled in less than 20 minutes, with a deeply flavored, seared crust and juicy, pink middle? Pretty good? Hmm, coincidence, me too. That's why I'm so darn happy to have found this fairly foolproof recipe from Chris Schlesinger and John Willoughby's The Big-Flavor Grill. More
After years of learning convoluted tricks for making competition-worthy pork ribs, I've realized the ribs I like best are made more simply and have bolder flavors, like the earthy, spicy rub and fruity, smoky apricot sauce in this killer recipe. More
Pork belly has been enjoying its 15 minutes of fame for the last, what, 7 years or so? And no wonder: pork fat tastes good, and as every bacon-lover knows, pork belly is wonderfully fatty. This recipe, from Tom Mylan's The Meat Hook Meat Book, couldn't be easier, and lands you with luscious, wobbly, sweet-and-savory hunks of pork that are as good as any in Chinatown. More
Thai-style grilled chicken coated in a marinade flavored with cilantro, white pepper, and fish sauce is one of the tastiest things you'll ever pull off of your grill. There's a reason you can't walk more than a few blocks in Bangkok without catching a whiff of its intense aroma. Here's how to make it in your own backyard. More
Smoky, juicy, tender, and flavored with a carefully calibrated homemade sauce, this pulled barbecue chicken is way better than just about any version we've ever had before. More
This chicken won the Fourth of July. The recipe, from Pitt Cue Co.: The Cookbook, sounded delicious on the page: A whole bird, rested overnight in chipotle and garlic pastes, maple syrup, butter, and Pitt Cue's aromatic, spicy-sweet House Rub, then slow-smoked until perfectly burnished. Yes, please. More
The four partners from the London BBQ restaurant Pitt Cue Co. are serious about their meat. In the new (to the U.S.) Pitt Cue Co.: The Cookbook, they strongly encourage homecooks to get serious, too. This recipe turned out smoky, unctuous, crazy flavorful ribs. It is one of the simpler preparations in the book, requiring only the ribs and the House Rub; sauce is optional and unnecessary. More
This fragrant, sweet, gently spicy dry rub makes several appearances in the pages of Pitt Cue Co.: The Cookbook. This week, we'll use it as the sole seasoning on their outstanding Beef Ribs and as a defining element in the wet rub for the Whole Spicy Smoked Roast Chicken. More
Pork shoulder is beloved for good reason: it's cheap, forgiving, and it can feed an army. Those reasons alone make it a winner of a cut in my book. It's also barbecue spice-ready, too, as you'll see here. And when that version is paired with a homemade, garden-fresh condiment, it comes mighty close to being my personal version of heaven on earth. More
Invented by a restaurant owner from Greece, Memphis dry ribs are bathed in vinegar while being grilled over smoky charcoal, then coated with an earthy, herbal rub once they're done cooking. Just don't let the name mislead you: There's nothing dry about these babies. More
The time investment of using dried beans pays in this recipe, which produces some of the best barbecue beans you'll ever have—a slowly reduced sauce packs a deep and complex barbecue flavor while tender and creamy beans round it out. More
Great barbecue beans don't need to take half a day to make—using canned beans with a sauce built from scratch delivers a lot of the depth associated with more time-intensive recipes.

Taking a cue from Kansas City barbecue sauce, this ketchup delivers the sweet tang with a little heat, without being overwhelmingly strong. More
Mayonnaise probably isn't the first ingredient you think of when you hear the words "barbecue sauce." It might even be the last thing that crosses your mind (especially if you're not a coleslaw-on-pulled-pork kind of person). Yet the creamy condiment is, in fact, the main ingredient in Alabama white barbecue sauce, a tangy and sweet blanket for slowly grilled chicken. More
Rubbed, steamed in beer and rubbed again, these burnished baby back ribs are a great option when it's too cold to grill. More
A Filipino barbecue-inspired glazes gives this ham a crust that has a depth far beyond its sugary base, packing a ton of flavor into each small bite. More

We begin today's compendium with a stunning graphic from the World Bank, revealing the extent of the devastation the disease has wrought to one country's working class:
From the News in Monrovia, Liberia, critical context:
'Dumpsite Food' Eaters
Residents of a community outside Buchanan, Grand Bassa County, known as 'Own your Own' are said to be surviving on food from dump sites in the county.
The area is where Arcelormittal and other concession companies are operating. These companies dispose spoiled foods in the dump sites just opposite the Ebola Treatment Unit constructed by the United States Government.
Some of the citizens and residents who spoke to our reporter said the dump site has been their source for food for the past seven years.
Our reporter who recently returned from the county said most of the citizens using the dump site for survival are women and children.
Meanwhile, returning American sailors smile through quarantine, via the McClatchy Washington Bureau:
Seabees' morale high despite long Ebola quarantine, congressman says
There were no hugs or handshakes just in case Ebola germs lurked, but Rep. Steven Palazzo found 15 Navy Seabees from Mississippi in "good spirits" Friday as they waited out a 21-day isolation period at Virginia's Langley Air Force Base after a seven-week stint building treatment facilities in disease-ravaged Liberia.
"Everybody had a smile on his face," Palazzo said.
The Seabees "were nowhere near any of the Ebola victims or the medical personnel that were treating them" while working in Monrovia and even had "limited involvement" with Liberians in the community who had been found free of the disease, he said.
While Reuters covers critical quarantine questions:
US quarantine moves hurting Ebola response in Africa -Harvard
Moves by some U.S. states to isolate medical workers returning from fighting Ebola in West Africa could worsen the global health crisis by discouraging badly needed new volunteers, according to health experts at Harvard University.
Ebola has killed more than 5,450 people in West Africa since March in the disease's worst outbreak on record, striking hardest in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, which are among the world's least developed countries.
"By far and away what is needed most in West Africa are care providers who can help," Paul Biddinger, director of the Harvard School of Public Health Emergency Preparedness Program, said during a panel discussion about the disease on Tuesday.
But "because of a fear of stigma, of being involuntarily quarantined … people don't want to necessarily subject themselves to this, and that is tragic."
From Agence France-Presse, a video about a video:
African celebrities in Ebola campaign video
Program notes:
African celebrities have called for action against Ebola in a video produced by the ONE Campaign.
Next, a warning from the United Nations Development Program:
Ebola crisis may result in more hunger: UNDP study
Wild price swings caused by the Ebola health crisis are making it more difficult for households to feed themselves and make a stable living, according to a new study by the UN development programme.
"Border closures, movement restrictions and a slowdown in farming activity are shaking food markets badly," said Ayodele Odusola, Chief Economist at the Regional Bureau for Africa of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
"This could have a disastrous impact on households, both because farmers are unable to make a living and because families are finding very different prices on the local market from one day to the next. People living in rural and remote areas are feeling the impact of reduced purchasing power more than their urban counterparts," he added.
Since the onset of the Ebola crisis, buying power went down by 20 percent in Sierra Leone and by more than 25 percent in Liberia. The study also found rural communities were worst affected, due to more expensive transport costs and dependency on declining farming incomes. Reduced traffic has been observed in more than two-thirds of Liberia's counties, for instance.
As a result, in October, Monrovians paid $17.5 for 25 kilograms of rice, while people in the Southeast paid $21.3 for the same quantity. Because Liberia and Sierra Leone depend on Guinea for food imports, their situation is particularly serious.
PCWorld covers another development:
Ebola speeds up educators' embrace of tech in Sierra Leone, Liberia
The deadly Ebola outbreak has sparked some creative thinking among academic institutions and private education initiatives determined to reach out to students who have been hunkering down for months in Sierra Leone and Liberia.
Faced with a raging epidemic, the University of Sierra Leone plans to upload lecture notes on its website, send learning material through email and engage students through social media platforms like Whatsapp and Facebook. The 2014/2015 session, which should have begun Oct. 1, was postponed due to the Ebola outbreak.
Sierra Leone is one of the countries worst hit by the disease, which has already claimed over 5,000 lives in West Africa. Just last week, Sierra Leone recorded 435 new confirmed cases of Ebola and 110 confirmed deaths.
On to Mali with the Associated Press:
Mali confirms eighth Ebola case
Mali has confirmed a new case of Ebola, bringing to eight the number of people who have fallen ill with the deadly disease in the West African country.
A government statement issued Monday night said the patient had been placed in a treatment center.
All of Mali's Ebola cases can be traced back to a 70-year-old imam who was brought to the country from Guinea, where the epidemic first began.
Six of Mali's eight Ebola patients have died. The government said Saturday that another patient who tested positive was also receiving treatment and had been isolated.
From Voice of America's TV2Africa, a video report on the course of the disease in Mali:
Mali Ebola
Program notes:
Almost a month after a 70-year-old Guinean Imam sought treatment at a clinic in Bamako, Mali is scrambling to stop a potential outbreak. Five people have died so far. A sixth related Ebola case was confirmed Saturday. VOA's Anne Look reports from Mali on what the country is doing to shut down the chain of transmission.
On to Liberia, first with FrontPageAfrica and another campaign launched:
Initiative Spearheads Setting up of Ebola Force on Reducing Denial
UNDP /Ministry of Health Community Based Initiative in the West Point Community District #4, has organized a meeting with the elder Council, the new Commissioner and the youth of West Point.
The meeting was part of efforts by Active Case Finders and Contact Tracers of West Point to facilitate the establishment of an Ebola Task Force to help mitigate the resurging denial of the Ebola Virus, stigma, and hiding of the sick.
An earlier meeting held with the elder council indicated that the people of West Point were hiding their sick because it was popularly believed that those who went to the ETUs never came back to their families. As a way of dispelling this belief, Active Case Finders providing services in the Community, identified 12 survivors from the West Point Community and presented them to the elder council.
The Inquirer covers a return:
Catholic Hosp. Reopens
The St. Joseph Catholic Hospital yesterday opened its doors to the public following months of closure as a result of the deadly Ebola virus outbreak which victimized a number of medical staff and missionaries.
The hospital's re-opening was attended by a number of international Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs), the Catholic Church in Liberia and the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare.
The Human Resources Manager of the hospital, Mr. Joel N. Williams said the hospital attended to 23 patients yesterday but did not admit any because the reopening process will be carried out on a gradual basis.
Mr. Williams said the hospital is beginning its operations on a gradual basis by first reopening its Maternity ward with eight beds which will be increased on a weekly basis with the sponsorship of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).

MoH issues Ebola regulations
The Government of Liberia through the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare has set up anti-Ebola regulations to govern all citizens irrespective of status or affiliation.
Outgoing Health Minister, Dr. Walter T. Gwenigale, has mandated that all video clubs, night clubs or restaurants should have chlorinated water placed at the entrances of those businesses for hands washing, and everyone's temperature should be taken, stressing that anyone with 37.5 degree Celsius should be denied entrance and considered an Ebola suspect.
Minister Gwenigale has also instructed that vehicles in Liberia should continue to carry three persons at the back seat until Ebola is eradicated here. He said no community should allow visitors from various counties, especially when the person is sick, adding that if any community has such case, it should be reported to community leaders, who will immediately inform health authorities.
