Women Writers Triangle
Donna Frost
Donna Frost is a true traveling troubadour, logging thousands of miles year round performing shows in cities all across the US. She is currently promoting 2 new Cd's which were released in 2014. "Bare Bones" with rockabilly legend, Billy Hancock, was released June of 2014, recorded at
Sun Studios in Memphis, TN. Her 4th solo CD, "Ukeabilly Mama", is her first all original ukulele music project, released in August of 2014 and it has been receiving a lot of positive response all over!
Donna has been an ASCAPlus recipient for the past 10 years for her work as a performing songwriter. She was a Kerrville New Folk finalist in 2004. She was lead singer and rhythm guitarist for the rock band, the BUNNIEs, one of the early new-wave bands in Nashville in the 1980s. She worked with the late Skeeter Davis as her background singer from 1996-2002. Donna performed Skeeter's hit "The End of the World" at the induction ceremony for Skeeter at the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame in April 2013. She contributed to Marley Brant's book, "Tales from the Rock and Roll Highway" and Rev. Keith A. Gordon's "The Other Side of Nashville." Donna has acted in theatrical productions, including a starring role as Janis Joplin in "Kozmic Blue" & works as an extra in movies and TV, including the ABC series "Nashville". Donna is currently writing her first book, "My Life in Song"
Ruby Lovett
Ruby Lovett is pure country. She is heir to a tradition of women with drawls and spunk, women who,
truth be told, built and nurtured country music from its beginnings through early Reba. She is funny, unaffected, and unabashedly traditional in her outlook. Her music is as authentic as she is, full of honest emotion and real-life situations/ sung with unaffected grace and power.
While working on an album for Curb Records with producer Allen Reynolds, she became friends with Garth Brooks who says of Ruby, "For the people that say 'country' is what's missing from today's country music, find Ruby Lovett." Great advice!
Taylor Pie
Taylor Pie is a veteran musician and singer of almost 60 years! She learned to play and sing songs off the radio before radio had categories like folk, country, jazz or rock. All that mixing and mingling of styles shaped her into an eclectic root based poet minstrel who can deliver a song with such a motherlode of honesty that you may be brought to tears or suddenly find yourself singing loudly, whether you can carry a tune or not! Her voice is visceral… as if it's rising from the marrow of her soul.
Pie's songs are instinctive, elemental emotional journeys into the heart of being human. "Listening to her music is like putting on your favorite pair of blue jeans, so comfortable and the fit is perfect, voice, words and music matched with real experience, character, grace, and charm…"

Frances Lawrence to Direct 'Hunger Games' Sequel CATCHING FIRE
LIONSGATE®, a leading global entertainment company, announced today that Francis Lawrence has officially signed on to direct CATCHING FIRE, the sequel to THE HUNGER GAMES, based on the second in a series of books by SuzAnne Collins that has 36 million copies in circulation in the US alone. The announcement was made by Lionsgate's Motion Picture Group Co-Chairmen Patrick Wachsberger and Rob Friedman.
Lawrence, who is represented by CAA and 3 Arts Entertainment, has experience directing films that make him uniquely suited to handle the blend of character driven drama and high stakes action of CATCHING FIRE; among them are I AM LEGEND, CONSTANTINE, and WATER FOR ELEPHANTS.
"Lionsgate, the cast, and filmmakers are all thrilled to have Francis Lawrence come on board as director of Catching Fire. Suzanne's brilliant book is the intense story of the birth of the rebellion and Katniss' emotionally charged journey as she takes on the mantle of the Mockingjay, and we all think Francis is the perfect director to bring the story to life," said Erik Feig, Lionsgate's President Of Production.
"From the very beginning of this brilliant trilogy's journey from page to screen, our first priority has been to stay true to the heart and soul of SuzAnne Collins' powerful stories. From my first conversation with Francis, I knew he would make a great partner for both me and Suzanne. His passion for Catching Fire and inspired ideas for a faithful adaptation make him the perfect director for this movie. I know this will be a wonderful collaboration and I cannot wait to get started," echoed producer Nina Jacobson.
Said Francis, "It is truly an honor and a privilege to bring Catching Fire, the second chapter of Suzanne's beloved trilogy, to the big screen. I fell in love with the characters, the themes and the world she created and this chapter opens all of these elements up in such a thrilling, emotional and surprising way. I can't wait to dive right into it and bring this chapter to life along with the truly superb cast and filmmakers involved."
Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, and Liam Hemsworth will reprise their roles as Katniss, Peeta and Gale, with Lenny Kravitz, Elizabeth Banks, Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland, Toby Jones, and Woody Harrelson also returning to their respective roles. The film will be produced by Jacobson's Color Force in tandem with producer Jon Kilik. Production is slated to begin this Fall, and the film will be released on November 22, 2013.

A lipogram (from Ancient Greek: λειπογράμματος, leipográmmatos, "leaving out a letter") is a kind of constrained writing or word game consisting in writing paragraphs or longer works in which a particular letter or group of letters is avoided—usually a common vowel, and frequently "E", the most common letter in the English language.[1] For the Ancient Greeks, the absence of the sigma is the earliest example of a lipogram.[2]
Writing a lipogram may be a trivial task for uncommon letters like "Z", "J", "Q", or "X", but it is much more difficult for common letters like "E", "T" or "A". Writing this way, the author must omit many ordinary words. Grammatically meaningful and smooth-flowing lipograms can be difficult to compose.
A pangrammatic lipogram or lipogrammatic pangram is a text that uses every letter of the alphabet except one, e.g. "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog", which omits "S".
The late antique Greek poets Nestor of Laranda and Tryphiodorus wrote lipogrammatic adaptations of the Homeric poems: Nestor composed an Iliad, which was followed by Tryphiodorus' Odyssey.[3]
One of the most remarkable examples of lipogram is Ernest Vincent Wright's novel Gadsby (1939), which has over 50,000 words but not a single letter "E".[4] Wright's self-imposed rule prohibited such common English words as "the" and "he", plurals in "-es", past tenses in "-ed", and even abbreviations like "Mr." (for "Mister") or "Bob" (for "Robert"). Yet the narration flows fairly smoothly, and the book was praised by critics for its literary merits.[5][6]
However, Wright was not the first lipogram writer. Indeed, he was motivated to write Gadsby by an earlier four-stanza lipogrammatic poem of another author.[7]
Even earlier, Spanish playwright Enrique Jardiel Poncela published five short stories between 1926 and 1927, each one omitting a vowel; the best known are "El Chofer Nuevo" ("The new Driver"), without the letter "A", and "Un marido sin vocación" ("A Vocationless Husband"), without the "E".[8][9]
Interest in lipograms was rekindled by Georges Perec's novel La Disparition (1969) (openly inspired by Wright's Gadsby) and its English translation A Void by Gilbert Adair.[4] Both works are missing the letter "E", which is the most common letter in French as well as in English. A Spanish translation instead omits the letter A, the second most common letter in that language. Perec subsequently wrote Les revenentes (1972), a novel that uses no vowels except for "E". Perec was a member of Oulipo, a group of French authors who adopted a variety of constraints in their work.
More examples[edit]
After Perec's work, many other authors have taken to write under these (or even stronger) constraints. To cite some examples:
- Gyles Brandreth re-wrote some of Shakespeare's works as lipograms: Hamlet without the letter "i" (e.g., "To be or not to be, that's the query"); Macbeth without "A" or "E"; Twelfth Night without "O" or "L"; Othello without "O".[10][citation needed]
- Fate of Nassan, an anonymous poem dating from pre-1870, where each stanza is a lipogrammatic pangram (using every letter of the alphabet except "E").[11]
Bold Nassan quits his caravan,
A hazy mountain grot to scan;To quarry on thy Arab boy.
Climbs jaggy rocks to find his way,
Doth tax his sight, but far doth stray.
Not work of man, nor sport of child
Finds Nassan on this mazy wild;
Lax grow his joints, limbs toil in vain—
Poor wight! why didst thou quit that plain?
Vainly for succour Nassan calls;
Know, Zillah, that thy Nassan falls;
But prowling wolf and fox may joy
- Cipher and Poverty (The Book of Nothing), a book by Mike Schertzer (1998), pretends to have been written "by a prisoner whose world had been impoverished to a single utterance... who can find me here in this silence". The poems that follow use only the four vowels "A", "E", "I", and "O", and eleven consonants "C", "D", "F", "H", "L", "M", "N", "R", "S", "T", and "W" of this utterance.
- Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn (2001) is described as a "progressively lipogrammatic epistolary fable": the plot of the story deals with a small country which begins to outlaw the use of various letters, and as each letter is outlawed within the story, it is (for the most part) no longer used in the text of the novel. It is not purely lipogrammatic, however, because the outlawed letters do appear in the text proper from time to time (the characters being penalized with banishment for their use) and when the plot requires a search for pangram sentences, all twenty-six letters are obviously in use. Also, late in the text, the author begins using letters serving as homophones for the omitted letters (i.e., "PH" in place of an "F", "G" in place of "C"), which some might argue is cheating.
- In December 2009, a collective of crime writers, Criminal Brief, published eight days of articles as a Christmas-themed lipogrammatic exercise.[12]
- In June 2013, career and personal finance author Alan Corey published "The Subversive Job Search",[13] the first non-fiction lipogram ever published.[14] The entire book was written without the letter Z.
- How I met Your Mother: Season 9, Episode 9: "Platonish" In this episode, Lilly and Robin challenge Barney to obtain a girl's phone number without using the letter "E".
- Another type of lipogram, which omits the letter from the word as opposed to finding a synonym not using the letter to be omitted, was recorded by Willard R. Espy, called 181 Missing O's.[15]

Non-English examples[edit]
- In Sweden a form of lipogram was developed out of necessity at the Linköping University. Because files were shared and moved between computer platforms where the internal representation of the characters "Å", "Ä", "Ö", "å", "ä", and "ö" (all moderately common vowels) were different, the tradition to write comments in source code without using those characters emerged. Some also used this as a pastime to write texts using this restriction.[citation needed]
- Zanzō ni Kuchibeni o (1989) by Yasutaka Tsutsui is a lipogrammatic novel in Japanese language. The first chapter is written without あ, and usable syllables are decreasing as the story advances. In the last chapter, the last syllable ん vanishes and the story is closed.
- Zero Degree (1991) by Charu Nivedita is a lipogrammatic novel in Tamil language. The entire novel is written without ஒரு (one), and there are no punctuation marks in the novel except dots. Later the novel was translated in English.
- Russian 18th-century poet Gavriil Derzhavin avoided the harsh R sound (and the letter) in his poem "The Nightingale" in order to render the bird's singing.
- Russian author Sergei Dovlatov did not use two words that start with the same letter in a single sentence, inspired by Perec's experience.

Bruins 1, Maple Leafs 0
Chris Bourque scored his first goal with the Bruins and Boston held on to edge the Toronto on Saturday night.
The Bruins threatened throughout the tightly played game, but James Reimer stopped 33 shots from all angles as Boston came at him in waves.
The Bruins (6-1-1) limited the Leafs to 21 shots and killed off two penalties in the last nine minutes to hang on to beat Toronto (4-4).
Boston is 24-5-5 in its last 34 games against Toronto and 13-2-3 in its past 18 visits to Toronto.
Tuukka Rask, acquired from Toronto for Andrew Raycroft in 2006, earned the win.
Rangers 3, Lightning 2
Rick Nash scored a go-ahead goal early in the third period and New York beat Tampa Bay.
The Rangers took a 2-1 lead on Nash's second goal of the season, coming at 3:04 of the third period. He skated in from the right wing boards, eluded Tampa Bay defenseman Victor Hedman and jammed the puck past goalie Mathieu Garon.
Carl Hagelin made it 3-1 with 5:13 to play with his first goal in 20 games. Derek Stepan also scored for New York.
Steven Stamkos scored both goals for the Lightning.
Penguins 5, Devils 1
Sidney Crosby and Chris Kunitz each had a goal and two assists, and Pittsburgh picked up its first home victory of the season.
Penguins defenseman Robert Bortuzzo scored his first NHL goal, Brandon Sutter got his first with Pittsburgh and Kris Letang also found the back of the net for the Penguins.
Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 15 shots for the win.
Andy Greene scored a short-handed goal for the Devils. Martin Brodeur was sharp through two periods, stopping 17 of 19 shots, but allowed three goals in the third.
Flyers 5, Hurricanes 3
Claude Giroux and Danny Briere each had a goal and an assist to help Philadelphia beat Carolina.
Kurtis Foster, Brayden Coburn and Mike Knuble also scored for the Flyers.
Joni Pitkanen, Eric Staal and Patrick Dwyer had Carolina's goals.
Ilya Bryzgalov made several tough saves among his 39 stops for the Flyers.
Canadiens 6, Sabres 1
Rene Bourque and David Desharnais each scored twice to lead Montreal.
Carey Price made 30 saves for the Canadiens for his fifth win of the season. Lars Eller added a goal and two assists, while rookie Brendan Gallagher also scored.
Ryan Miller stopped 17 shots over two periods for Buffalo before being replaced in the third by backup Jhonas Enroth.
Avalanche 3, Oilers 1
P.A. Parenteau and Jamie McGinn scored goals 3 minutes, 29 seconds apart in the second period to help Colorado rally past Edmonton.
Paul Stastny also scored and Semyon Varlamov made 25 saves for Colorado.
Devan Dubnyk stopped 37 shots and Nail Yakupov scored for the Oilers.
Blue Jackets 4, Red Wings 2
Artem Anisimov scored twice in the second period, and Steve Mason stopped 32 shots to lead Columbus.
Mark Letestu added a short-handed goal, and James Wisniewski also scored for the Blue Jackets before leaving with an injury after he struck the end boards with his back early in the second period.
Coyotes 2, Stars 0
Mike Smith stopped 17 shots and Phoenix was at its tight-checking best in its win over Dallas.
Nick Johnson scored his third goal of the season and Mikkel Boedker his second for the Coyotes, who have points in four straight games.
The Coyotes have gotten back to their stay-at-home style that helped them reach the Western Conference finals last season.
Phoenix kept the Stars to the outside offensively most of the night while getting sticks and their bodies in the way whenever they tried to shoot. Smith was there to turn away anything that reached the net for his 20th career shutout, first this season.

A slit in podocyte death.
ABSTRACT Recent advances have identified the podocyte as a key target in glomerular injury. The podocyte is a highly specialized cell which is responsible for the glomerular permselectivity for proteins in the kidney. Podocyte injury or loss leads to proteinuria. Apoptosis has been shown to contribute to renal cell loss, including loss of podocytes. The most striking feature of the podocyte is its ability to form intricate specialized cell junctions, the slit diaphragm. Slit diaphragm proteins play an important role in podocyte biology, protein permselectivity, cell signalling and disease. This review focuses on recent advances on the understanding of podocyte survival regulation, its relationship to slit diaphragm structure and function, and how this knowledge may affect our therapeutic approach to proteinuric kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: Podocytes are specialized cells that contribute critically to the normal structure and function of the glomerular filtration barrier. Their depletion plays an important role in the pathogenesis of glomerulosclerosis. Here, we report generation of a genetic model of conditional podocyte ablation and regeneration in zebrafish using a bacterial nitroreductase strategy to convert a prodrug, metronidazole, into a cytotoxic metabolite. A transgenic zebrafish line was generated that expresses green fluorescence protein (GFP) and the nitroreductase fusion protein under the control of the podocin promoter Tg(podocin:nitroreductase-GFP). Treatment of these transgenic zebrafish with metronidazole results in podocyte apoptosis, a loss of nephrin and podocin expression, foot process effacement, and a leaky glomerular filtration barrier. Following metronidazole washout, proliferating cells were detected in the glomeruli of recovering transgenic fish with a restoration of nitroreductase-GFP fluorescence, nephrin and podocin expression, a reestablishment of normal foot process architecture, and glomerular barrier function. Thus, our studies show that zebrafish podocytes are capable of regenerating following depletion, and establish the Tg(podocin:NTR-GFP) fish as a new model to study podocyte injury and repair.Kidney International advance online publication, 6 March 2013; doi:10.1038/ki.2013.6.Kidney International 03/2013; · 8.52 Impact Factor
Article: Globotriaosylsphingosine actions on human glomerular podocytes: implications for Fabry nephropathy.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and the macrophage inhibitory factor receptor CD74 link the metabolic disorder with tissue injury in diabetic nephropathy. Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal glycosphingolipid storage disorder resulting from a deficient activity of α-galactosidase A that leads to proteinuric renal injury. However, the link between the metabolic abnormality and renal injury is poorly characterized. Globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) was recently identified as a bioactive molecule accumulating in Fabry disease. We hypothesized that lyso-Gb3 could modulate the release of secondary mediators of injury in glomerular podocytes and that recently described nephroprotective actions of vitamin D receptor activation in diabetic nephropathy may apply to lyso-Gb3. Real time RT-PCR, ELISA and Western blot were used to study the biological activity of lyso-Gb3 in cultured human podocytes and potential modulation by vitamin D receptor activation. In human podocytes, lyso-Gb3 dose and time dependently increased the expression of TGF-β1, extracellular matrix proteins (fibronectin and type IV collagen) and CD74. TGF-β1 mediated lyso-Gb3 effects on extracellular matrix production. Vitamin D receptor activation with paricalcitol or calcitriol prevented the increase in TGF-β1, CD74 and extracellular matrix induced by lyso-Gb3. Lyso-Gb3 may have a role in glomerular injury in Fabry disease by promoting the release of secondary mediators of glomerular injury common to diabetic nephropathy. These effects are prevented by paricalcitol, raising the issue of vitamin D receptor activation as potential adjunctive therapy in Fabry nephropathy.Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation 06/2011; 26(6):1797-802. · 3.37 Impact Factor
Article: Etiopathology of chronic tubular, glomerular and renovascular nephropathies: clinical implications.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) comprises a group of pathologies in which the renal excretory function is chronically compromised. Most, but not all, forms of CKD are progressive and irreversible, pathological syndromes that start silently (i.e. no functional alterations are evident), continue through renal dysfunction and ends up in renal failure. At this point, kidney transplant or dialysis (renal replacement therapy, RRT) becomes necessary to prevent death derived from the inability of the kidneys to cleanse the blood and achieve hydroelectrolytic balance. Worldwide, nearly 1.5 million people need RRT, and the incidence of CKD has increased significantly over the last decades. Diabetes and hypertension are among the leading causes of end stage renal disease, although autoimmunity, renal atherosclerosis, certain infections, drugs and toxins, obstruction of the urinary tract, genetic alterations, and other insults may initiate the disease by damaging the glomerular, tubular, vascular or interstitial compartments of the kidneys. In all cases, CKD eventually compromises all these structures and gives rise to a similar phenotype regardless of etiology. This review describes with an integrative approach the pathophysiological process of tubulointerstitial, glomerular and renovascular diseases, and makes emphasis on the key cellular and molecular events involved. It further analyses the key mechanisms leading to a merging phenotype and pathophysiological scenario as etiologically distinct diseases progress. Finally clinical implications and future experimental and therapeutic perspectives are discussed.Journal of Translational Medicine 01/2011; 9:13. · 3.46 Impact Factor

TSA Body Scanners Will No Longer See You Naked: Here's Why
- Order Reprints

By Mark Johanson | January 19, 2013 6:27 AM EST
It's been a long and winding road, but the Transportation Security Administration has finally removed controversial backscatter body scanners from U.S. airports after bowing to months of increased pressure.
The TSA says it's ended its contract with Rapiscan, a unit of OIS Systems Inc., because of the company's "inability to deploy non-imaging Automated Target Recognition (ATR) software by the Congressionally-mandated June 2013 deadline."
"The TSA has strict requirements that all vendors must meet for security effectiveness and efficiency," the administration said. "By June 2013 travelers will only see machines which have ATR that allow for faster throughput. This means faster lanes for the traveler and enhanced security."
The TSA added that, as always, passengers are allowed to opt-out.
Rapiscan CEO Deepak Chopra (not the New Age guru of the same name) said he was "pleased to reach a mutually satisfactory agreement with the TSA," adding that Rapiscan would help the agency move the $180,000 machines to other U.S. government agencies. The company had approximately $5 million of backlog orders with respect to the ATR software development, which Chopra said will be de-booked.
Rapiscan's full-body scanners were at one point active in about half of all U.S. airports and use low-level X-rays to create near-naked images of travelers' bodies. Designed to detect hidden weapons at screening checks across the nation, many passengers found the images the machine produced to be invasive and humiliating. Others complained that the backscatter scanners expose passengers to a small dose of ionizing radiation, which at higher levels has been linked to cancer.
In late 2011, the European Commission banned security scanners that use X-ray technology "in order not to risk jeopardizing citizens' health and safety." European officials removed some of the last remaining backscatter machines in England from the UK's Manchester Airport just last September.
Roughly 75 of the machines quietly disappeared from U.S. airports in October, though the TSA said it was simply shuffling them around. TSA Director of External Communications David Castelveter confirmed to IBTimes at the time that the units had been removed from Boston Logan, Los Angeles, Chicago O'Hare, Charlotte Douglas, Orlando, LaGuardia and John F. Kennedy in New York. Castelveter said the agency was "still evaluating" which airports would receive the units, though it appears now that they have remained in storage. The remaining 174 are expected to be gone from airports by June.
A second type of scanner, built by L-3 Communications Holding, uses millimeter-wave technology to produce a cartoon-like image of the human body. Its low-energy radio waves are similar to those in cell phones, and they pose no known health risks.
The TSA has installed the millimeter-wave technology machines with a greater frequency over the past year compared with the year before, though various tests (none sponsored by the TSA) show its false alarm rate is between 23 and 54 percent, compared with the backscatter scanners' 5 percent.
The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear a case last October brought by Florida-based blogger Jonathan Corbett, who maintains the website TSA Out of Our Pants!
Corbett contended the TSA's use of advanced imaging technology and "invasive" patdowns violates passengers' protection against illegal searches under the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. He argued in court papers that the TSA has no unilateral authority to adopt such procedures.
The TSA rolled out the backscatter scanner machines in October 2010 after three years of testing and subsequently authorized enhanced patdowns, which could include the touching of breasts, buttocks and genitals, for passengers unwilling to submit to those scanners. The machines went on to become the most hotly contested anti-terrorism weapon in the TSA arsenal.

Netherlands/Jakarta, 14 November 2014 - The announcement on November 13th of a US-India agreement on trade facilitation and India's food security programme was denounced today by Transnational Institute and Serikat Petani Indonesia (SPI), the Indonesian Peasant Union Federation as a "victory for transnational corporations at the expense of peasant farmers."
More than 180 cities and communities in 35 countries have taken back control of their water services in the last 15 years, a new report released today by the Transnational Institute (TNI), Public Services International Research Unit (PSIRU) and the Multinational Observatory reveals.
Amsterdam, 12-9-2014 - Een verzoek voor de lancering van een burgerinitiatief rond TTIP en CETA is op 10 september door de Europese Commissie afgewezen. De Europese Commissie weigert het initiatief te registreren omdat het buiten de bevoegdheden van de Commissie zou vallen. Maatschappelijke organisaties, waaronder TNI en SOMO, vinden dat de Commissie zeggenschap van burgers ondermijnt en roepen de nieuwe Commissie op om dit besluit terug te draaien.
Despite promises made during the negotiation process, the multiparty trade agreement between the EU, Colombia and Peru has not helped to improve the living conditions of the Colombian population. On the contrary, conflicts linked to export sectors and EU investment have continued and, in some cases, worsened.
European Citizens' Initiative demands: Stop negotiations for TTIP and CETA ECI-Registration 15 July 2015 – criticism: insufficient democratic participation and weakening of standards
Twenty country members of the United Nations Human Rights Council, representing a population of 3.8 billion people, voted today in favour of a historic resolution to build a binding treaty against TNC human rights abuses.
Bouncing Back - Relapse in the Golden Triangle, a new in-depth report by the Transnational Institute (TNI) launched in Yangon, Burma/Myanmar, on Monday June 2, highlights the profound changes in the illicit drugs market in the Golden Triangle – Burma, Thailand and Laos – and neighbouring India and China over the past five years.
More than 120 organisations critizise the corporate agenda in the TTIP negotiations
TNI's new report chronicles working alternatives across the world that have succeeded in increasing food security while protecting family farmers, their communities and the environment.
On the 15-16th of May, representatives from organisations across Europe gave testimony to an era of financial, economic and social crisis which began in 2008. Their verdict? The EU's policies have taken Europe on a course towards social and political regression.

6th grade was terrible, I suggest not going to this school. teachers don't care, and students get away with bad behavior, they don't seem to care if they get in trouble. too much bullying has occurred here, and I was one that was being bullied once.
im in 6th grade the teachers are good though very strict on 6b and the kids are soo mean and they bully me every single day so I'm not going to attend to hnms for 7th grade and if your in choir the make fun of the way you sing and they talk about you be hide your back. they make fun of your lunchbox too the kids are so f*** mean so if i was you i would not send your child to this solo its the worst school I've ever been to in my life.
Pretty good school. My son is in 7th grade and enjoys attending North Middle. Teachers have great communication in regards to students' academics and progress. The school has plenty of programs and extra curriculur activities.
I'm a A student now their is a lot of problems with the school but defiantly not with the teachers or just the school the problems are mostly with SOME kids who's parents don't care the school is top of the line if only like Maybe 47%of the kids weren't there this school would be the best school in Saint Louis an we don't have a lot of fight there has only been two in the past year. An there are a lot of kids who aren't black an they don't get made fun of ... Let's Go Panthers...
My white daughter attended Nth Middle for 6th grade and the beginning of 7th until we moved. She had all A's, the teachers and staff were great and well educated. The students have all the bells and whistles of a new school-smartboards-tv's high tech. Too many kids don't care,the parents don't care. My white child-yes white was scared on the bus- I can't count the times the bus went back to school because of a fight/arguement or too many "F" words being yelled out. Girls yes girls fought bad enough to have the lady security guard be involved and also get hit. Its sad, the school building is top rate- the teachers are excellent- the parents do NOT support the staff- Don't take the childs phone away in class and expect them to come retrieve it- and go out of THEIR way..My daughter liked the teachers more than the students..I'm sorry for the ones that actual want to get an education and are left there to have to deal with the unbelievably large amount of idiots who have no intention of behaving or learning. So glad we got out of there when we did.
This school not conductive to teaching special needs child. Lacks teacher training in recognizing behaviors and traits that are associated with autistic child.
My daughter is in the 6th grade this year and I feel very confident that she is getting the best education she can get.
So far I am very pleased with my childrens experience there. Teachers are very nice and they are very good at communicating with the parents. I am looking forward to this up coming shcool year.
I went to north middle when it was first opened, which was the year 2007-2008.I was a student(7th grade). And from my point of veiw the staff and everyone did a real good job.Many of the teachers started clubs and after school activities. I look in my year book and i'm in there 5-6 times.So if you decide to have your child attend north middle your making a goog decision. Oh yeah I passed with straight A's (all year 'round).

Sorry, Chic Ain't Effortless
How Putting in Extra Grooming Time Helped This New Mom Look Fabulous
"Magazines love to show these images of models with their effortless style," says Melissa Magsaysay, author of City of Style: Exploring Los Angeles Fashion From Bohemian to Rock. "But unless you're gorgeous and twenty years old and don't need a bra, it takes a lot of money and time to get that look."
Indeed, a peek at online retailer Netaporter.com's "off-duty" dress section reveals a gorgeous Vanessa Bruno smocked silk-crepe mini that is described as "effortlessly chic." Never mind the fact that it costs $650 and can only be dry-cleaned, a frock like this demands a pair of flashy pumps or booties and a respectable handbag. Oh, and factor in time to shave your legs, too.
Indeed and really, what's wrong with admitting that you make an effort to look good or stylish? It takes time for me to maintain harmony in my marriage and I work very hard at my writing. The return on the energy I expend as a mother defies value.
So my new personal style is: elbow-grease chic.

Thanks very much for your response, I have been trying to locate someone with this book for quite a while. I am trying to locate the parents of my great-great-great-grandfather, Stephen Burritt Morehouse. He was born August 1809 in Westport CT. He married a Catherine Amelia Kirby in 1840 also in Westport. My grandmother has an old bible page which indicates that Stephen B may be related to a Stephen Morehouse and his wife Esther Taylor, but I can find no info to prove it. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Masked Robbers Hold 3-Year-Old at Gunpoint
Last Edited: Friday, 30 Nov 2007, 5:39 PM EST
Created: Friday, 30 Nov 2007, 5:27 PM EST
By NICOLE FERGUSON
FOX8 News
REIDSVILLE, N.C. (WGHP) A three-year-old was held at gunpoint during a home invasion by four armed men wearing ski masks. The attack happened Thursday morning in a home off Lincoln Street in Reidsville.
Howard Scales lives in the house with his three-year-old son and Shenika Flippen.
Police said Scales saw men running toward his home. By the time he reached the living room, they had reportedly kicked in the front door, forced Scales to the floor and moved to the back of the house toward Flippen and the child.
Police said the men tied Scales' and Flippen's hands together. They held the toddler by the neck, a gun pointed at his body as they collected money, jewelry and a cell phone and other items before taking off.
Flippen was able to escape and call 9-1-1 from her neighbor's home.
"She was just shaking and crying. She was frantic," said Carel Wheeler.
Based on how the robbery was carried out, police believe the robbers knew their victims well.

As new power models become integrated into the daily lives of people and the operating systems of communities and societies, a new set of values and beliefs is being forged. Power is not just flowing differently; people are feeling and thinking differently about it.
A teenager with her own YouTube channel engages as a content creator rather than as a passive recipient of someone else's ideas. A borrower on the peer-to-peer finance platform Lending Club can disintermediate that oldest of old power institutions, the bank. A Lyft user experiences consumption as a kind of sharing and subtly shifts his view of asset ownership.
These feedback loops—or maybe we should call them "feed-in" loops, given that they're based on participation—make visible the payoffs of peer-based collective action and endow people with a sense of power. In doing so, they strengthen norms around collaboration and make the case that we can do just fine without the old power middlemen that dominated the 20th century.

"Big deal"
I read the "big deal" comments on this thread and shake my head. It is true that people can machine their own weapons before this plastic gun idea came about. Heck, I've even seen a forum thread where a guy documented making an AK47 out of a flat shovel. However, I see a similarity to free speech. I can imagine that the same "big deal" comments came about with the onset of the internet. "Big deal, people have been printing newspapers and books for centuries, anyone can do it." Despite the technology being there, not everyone had a small printing press and put out newsletters, etc.
I see this becoming huge in a different way: Rendering the big gun manufacturers obsolete. Think about that for a minute. Would you pay several hundred to several thousand dollars if you could print a gun at home for less? Companies like Remington and S&W might find them struggling the way the printed newspaper companies find themselves struggling. I doubt DHS will be printing guns any time soon, if ever. I think gun ownership is somewhere around 25% here in the US, and way lower worldwide. However, 3D printer ownership may go extremely high within the next 20 years. If that is the case, then 100% gun ownership is really only a few hours away at that point, depending on printer speeds.
Currently, freedom is a background check away and for some states, 3 to 7 days, even longer in some states and entirely forbidden in most nations. With 3D printed guns, freedom is only as far away as the nearest 3D printer. 7 billion people in this world, tyranny is screwed if they all start printing guns.

DIY: An Ikea Hack of West Elm's Parsons Cube
DIY: An Ikea Hack of West Elm's Parsons Cube
by Casa Community 13 Reactions 23 Shares Print
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member 2ndfloorliving of the Su Casa group:
I'm proud of my first "Ikea hack." I combined the parts from two Lack Side Tables ($7.99 each) to make one cube-like side table that looks very similar to West Elm's Parsons Cube Side Table ($149 each). All it took was some Liquid Nails to glue everything together! So for about $15 plus the cost of Liquid Nails ($3) you can make your own "$149" table.
I came up with the idea while doing research on Ikea Lack table hacks. You can see all the great examples I found on my blog.
Have you been doing any hacks of your own lately? Be sure to post photos and tales in the Su Casa group!

Were four killed? Or nine? In Egypt, the deaths keep racking up - and few pay any attention
When Mubarak fell the country was bright with optimism. Now life is cheap and the future brings only fear
Isra Lutfi was only 15 years old and the men beside the bright blue tent where she died pointed to the bloodstains on the mat with something approaching indifference. "She was running from the gunfire and that's where the bullet entered," one of them said, pointing to the neat little hole in the cheap plastic wall of the tent. Whoever was shooting at the Muslim Brotherhood encampment in Giza at dawn yesterday morning got away, as usual. He – or they – were probably firing from the grounds of Cairo University. Indeed, just opposite the place of Isra's martyrdom stands the great domed hall where, four years ago, Barack Obama asked the Muslim world to forgive the sins of George W Bush.
Four members of the Brotherhood also found death amid the tents and garbage opposite the university gates yesterday. "But we carried on praying," the man at Isra's tent said, as if martyrdom were a way of life. Since violence has become so normalised in Egypt now – since the local papers often fail even to mention the names of the dead – let those who died at Giza here be recorded. Apart from Isra, all were men. One was an engineer, Hossamedin Mohamed. Another was a lawyer, Mohamed Abdul Hamid Abdul Ghani. The Brotherhood did not know the job of Abdul Rahman Mohamed and they knew only the first name of the fifth victim of the morning. Osama. All were shot by high-velocity rounds. Who fired those bullets? Who knows?
In a land where killers go free, they were variously said to be plainclothes policemen, army agents, "Baltagi" – slang for thugs, ex-cops and drug addicts – or local residents sickened by the camp and its graffiti and posters of bloodied martyrs. No one came to investigate the shooting. Egyptian radio claimed nine had died although there wasn't a bearded man – and the Brotherhood men were all bearded – who could account for the extra four dead. Local flat-dwellers may not like the Brotherhood but they would surely not try to shoot them down. Yet there is a kind of torpor around the camps, both in Giza and in Nasr City, where the wind rips away the posters of the corpses from the massacre on 8 July that left more than 50 dead, where "Morsi President" is lamely spray-painted on the walls while pictures of General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, Defence Minister and leader of the coup-that-wasn't-a-coup, has a Star of David painted on his military cap.
In a city which now boasts more conspiracy theories than Beirut, the Israeli "plot" – getting rid of the only Islamist-led state on its border – is now doing the rounds, along with the Morsi "plot": that the man was dismantling the state of Egypt when the army arrived in the nick of time to save democracy. A subsidiary plot now involves the one soldier the military claim was killed by the Brotherhood during the 8 July massacre. Weirdly, he did not receive a military funeral – as all Egyptian soldiers do, for example, when they are killed in Sinai. The "plot"? He must have been killed by his own officer for refusing to shoot at Brotherhood supporters – and thus forfeited last rites from his army.
The lawlessness now cloaking Egypt is real enough. It's not just a matter of village lynchings and the shooting of Christian Copts and Brotherhood supporters and widespread theft. A young woman told me of her father's predicament, a landowner with property 150 miles from Cairo who was visited by an "armed group". Baltagi, I asked? She didn't know, but what she did know was that they asked her father to hand over his property. He refused and found that other landlords in the same city were now all paying protection money to the "group" – and when they complained to the police, they found that the cops were themselves also paying protection money to the same "group".
Some believe they include men freed from state prisons during the 2011 revolution, several of whom are known to live as outlaws in the Sinai desert outside el-Arish. Lawlessness on the Egyptian side of the Israeli frontier existed in Mubarak's time and now includes al-Qa'ida-inspired gangs who supposedly owe their freedom to Morsi. On average a soldier is killed every day in Sinai but when Lina Attalah – one of the most assiduous of Cairo's reporters, who goes to Sinai every month – visited el-Arish last week, she found it strangely calm. "It doesn't feel like a war zone," she says. "There are 'jihadi' groups and a level of militancy exists with some form of organisation. The risk is that they will start operating together but they don't seem able to grow or recruit. The tribes there like the soldiers. They prefer the army to the police who treat them badly."
The one thing that the events of the past three weeks has proved, however, is that the Brotherhood does not have a militia. A few guns fired off by angry supporters, perhaps, but no secret army, no armed commandos, no "fedayeen". Not that you'd believe this from the Cairo press which is now showing a subservience to the army that it once displayed towards Hosni Mubarak before the 2011 revolution, if it was such a thing. Leftist liberals – the Egyptians beloved by all journalists – say that the coup-that-wasn't-a-coup was in fact a continuation of the revolution, while the Brotherhood believes that the 2011 revolution can only be restored if Mohamed Morsi is put back in power, an event as unlikely as the return of the Pharoahs.
By chance, yesterday was the 61st anniversary of the Egyptian military revolution by General Mohamed Naguib, who toppled King Farouk in 1952 and who was in turn toppled in a coup-that-wasn't-a-coup by Colonel Gamal Abdel Nasser a year later. Without any sense of irony, General Sisi – in his new role of first Deputy Prime Minister as well as Defence Minister, head of the army and leader of the coup-that-wasn't-a-coup – went ahead with a vast military parade in Cairo on Monday to mark the Naguib coup.
The extraordinary thing about the coup-that-isn't-a-coup is the vast number of the aforesaid intellectuals who support it. Folk who would normally frown at the mere sight of khaki are now even making excuses for the 8 July killings. One old friend of mine – a genuine "analyst" of Egyptian politics – said that the army must have been "badly provoked" on the day of the killings. He spoke of how an army could only "act like an elephant" in such situations – not an idea to commend itself to Gen Sisi, I should imagine – and how the army would never wish to undermine democracy. "You have to understand that Morsi was hijacking our country, he was dismantling the state – in one more year, he would have completely dismantled it. He was following the definition of democracy that [the Turkish Prime Minister] Erdogan gave to a journalist when he was governor of Istanbul. Erdogan said that democracy was "like taking a tram – you ride it to your destination and then you get off". That's what Morsi thought. He pushed through his wretched constitution. He didn't plan to have any more "democracy" or any more elections."
All this can be unsettling when it is repeated, over and over, by otherwise perfectly sensible, reasonable free-thinking Egyptians. How, for example, can an army be in favour of democracy when it has accepted dozens of fake elections for Egyptian dictators – Nasser and then Sadat and then Mubarak – and yet steps in to prevent the winner of the only real presidential election in modern Egyptian history enjoying more than a year of democratically won power? True, Morsi only received 51 per cent of the vote. But that is surely more realistic than the 96 per cent vote of the dictators whom the army always protected. In a perverse logic, the very continuation of the Brotherhood demonstrations now "prove" that its supporters are not democrats; for if they were, they would acknowledge that Morsi cannot return to power now that the people "support" a new interim government chosen by the army.
So how will the Brotherhood demonstrations end? An appeal to do so by Morsi, perhaps? Unlikely, since Morsi – wherever the army has closeted him – has so far clearly refused to make such an appeal. If he was ready to, the army would assuredly have freed him to do just that.
When the Algerian army forbade the last round of elections in 1972 for fear that their Islamist party, the Islamic Salvation Front (FIS), would win, it opened vast prison camps in the Algerian deserts to jail thousands of FIS supporters without trial.
Have the Egyptian generals been chatting to their opposite numbers in Algeria? If they have, be sure they won't be chatting about the civil war that followed the cancelled elections in 1992 – and killed a quarter of a million people.
Let me list the reasons that the Green Party should definitely not be allowed into the TV election debates...
