Grassley: In Order For Health Care To Be 'Bipartisan, 'We Need To Make Sure There Is No Public Option'
"Grassley: In Order For Health Care To Be 'Bipartisan, 'We Need To Make Sure There Is No Public Option'"
On MSNBC this morning, Norah O'Donnell asked Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), the ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, "what needs to be in" a health care reform bill "for it to be bipartisan." After saying it needs to be paid for, Grassley declared, "We need to make sure that there's no public option." When O'Donnell double-checked that Grassley was saying that a public option was a dealbreaker for Republicans, he replied, "Absolutely." Watch it:
By claiming that a public option would destroy bipartisanship, Grassley is ignoring the preferences of a strong majority of Americans. Earlier this week, a New York Times/CBS News poll found that a public health insurance option (which would lower costs and improve quality) is supported by 72 percent of Americans, including 50 percent of Republicans.
Additionally, Grassley's antipathy to a public plan flies in the face of his own constituents. In May, the Des Moines Register Iowa Poll found that 56 percent of Iowans support a public plan:
More than half of Iowans support a public health insurance plan, and almost half of the state's residents who aren't already insured say they would consider enrolling.
The Des Moines Register Iowa Poll, conducted March 30 to April 1 by Selzer & Co. of Des Moines, showed 56 percent of Iowans support creation of a public plan, 37 percent oppose the idea and 7 percent are unsure.
During his press conference yesterday, President Obama indicated that a public option was not "non-negotiable." In a meeting with Senators yesterday, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel reportedly said that the White House wants a "bipartisan" plan and is "open to alternatives" on the public plan.

[Recipe] Bacon & Pea cheesy risotto
Bacon & Pea Cheesy Risotto: We love risotto in our family but we usually have the same one all the time, so when I saw this in the Good To Know recipe magazine I thought we should give this a try.
I really need to get better at taking food photos – with a photographer hubby you would think I would be, but granted when I make dinner it gets devoured immediately so I had to quickly snap a picture.
- 250g Arborio Risotto rice
- 200g Bacon Lardons
- 200g Frozen peas
- 45g Parmesan cheese
- 4 x Chicken stock cubes
- Mix up the chicken stock - I don't' know the exact amount but i fill a small pan full of boiling water with the stock cubes in.
- Melt a little bit of butter in a large pan and then add the risotto rice
- Add the stock small amount at a a time until the rice has soaked it up and is soft and cooked.
- In a small frying pan, fry the lardons for about 5 mins until golden, and cook the peas in the microwave.
- Once rice is cooked add the Parmesan cheese and stir well.
- Then add the bacon and peas give it another stir to mix well.
- Serve
- This recipe was adapted from the Good to Know recipe magazine, they sprinkle the cheese on top and use pre-packet rice whereas we like to mix the cheese well into the mixture.

Silent Sunday 14/9/14
[Recipe] Thai Green Curry
** I am copying over all my recipes from my other blogs to this one **
This used to be Lee's signature dish, but now I am the one who cooks it all the time It is not your usual Thai Green Curry as it doesn't have half the things it that it should, so this is our take on it and it is mighty fine if you ask me
- 250g Diced Chicken
- 1 Jar Thai Green Paste
- Baby Sweetcorn
- Mange Toute
- 1 Lime
- 1 tin Coconut milk
- Pan fry the chicken until no longer pink
- Add the jar of Green Paste - lower the heat as it will jap! Make sure all the chicken is covered.
- Next add the tin of coconut milk - leave a little in the tin if you want to add it to the rice and make it sticky.
- Add the baby sweetcorn - whole or chopped (we prefer the sweetcorn chopped into pieces) and the mange toute.
- Then add the juice of half a lime or the full lime according to taste.
- Leave to simmer and prepare the rice - remember to add the left over coconut milk if you want.
[Recipe] Spiced Carrot & Red Lenti Soup
** I am copying over all my recipes from my other blogs to this one **
Tried this recipe out as I had bought way to many carrots and I didn't want them to go to waste (something we really need work on is our food waste, but that is another story!)
- 2 tsp cumin seeds
- pinch chilli flakes
- 2 tbs olive oil
- 600g carrots, washed and coarsely grated (no need to peel!)
- 140g split red lentils
- 1L hot vegetable stock
- 125ml milk
- plain yoghurt and naan bread to serve
- 1. Heat a large saucepan and dry-fry the cumin seeds and chilli flakes for 1 min, or until they start to jump around the pan and release their aromas. Scoop out about half of the seeds with a spoon and set aside.
- 2. Add the oil, carrot, lentils, stock and milk to the pan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 15 mins until the lentils have swollen and softened.
- 3. Whizz the soup with a stick blender or in a food processor until smooth (or leave it chunky if you prefer).
- 4. Season to taste and finish with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkling of the reserved toasted spices. Serve with warmed naan breads.
- I tend to miss out the cumin seeds mainly because I didn't have them the first time I made this, and so have not bothered to buy them - I add and extra pinch of Lazy Chili instead
[Recipe] Homemade Mac & Cheese
** I am copying over all my recipes from my other blogs to this one **
A good old staple food that is actually really easy to make – I had my doubts when I first started making my own mac n cheese that it would be a faff and take ages. But was I wrong!
- 250g Macaroni
- 40g butter
- 40g plain flour
- 1 pint milk
- 250g grated cheddar cheese
- 1. Cook the macaroni as per instruction, drain then set aside.
- 2. In a lan larger than that used for the pasta, melt the butter, then add the flour and stir to form a roux
- 3. Gradually whisk in milk a little a time and cook for 10/15 min until thickened and smooth sauce.
- 4. Remove from heat and add cheese, stir well until cheese is well combined and melted.
- 5. Add the macaroni to the sauce and stir well.
- 6. Transfer to a deep dish and grill with some cheese on top until brown and bubbling.
- sometimes I add sliced tomatoes on top before covering with cheese and putting under the grill.
[Recipe] Easy Easter biscuits
** I am copying over all my recipes from my other blogs to this one **
Today we made Easter biscuits! despite it being a nice day out I thought we would do some baking since we are going over to my mum tomorrow and on Sunday. I am not one to cook or bake and this recipe was unbelievably easy to do.
Jack was my little helper and he enjoyed using writing icing to decorate them. There were more than what is shown on the plate, but a few bunnies lost their ears or worse their head so we just had to eat those….. right?
- 170g butter
- 170g Plain flour
- 55g Corn flour
- 55g Icing sugar
- Preheat oven to 190c/375f/gas mark 5
- Mix all the ingredients into a soft dough with your hands.
- Place dough on a large clean surface sprinkled with some plain flour
- Roll out to about 1inch thick.
- User shaped cutter or round cutter to cut out dough.
- Place on a baking tray and put in the oven for 10-12 min (remove from oven firm on top but still pale)
- Allow to cool on a wire rack before decorating
[Recipe] Fifteens
** I am copying over all my recipes from my other blogs to this one **
We were visiting out good friends Al and Amy on Sunday, and Amy introduced us to Fifteens.
These are super easy to make, so easy in fact that Jack helped me make some today
- 15 marshmallows halved
- 15 glace cherries halved
- 15 digestive biscuits crushed
- 150ml condensed milk
- cut marshmallows in half and toss in a large bowl with the cherries and biscuits.
- gradually stir in the condensed milk until it becomes a soft, moist dough.
- add a little more milk if it too dry
- On a clean surface use your hands to make the dough into a sausage shape
- Wrap twice in clingfilm and put in the fridge for 2-3 hours
- You can chose to roll the mixture in coconut whilst shaping it, but I chose not to on this occassion.

I was thoroughly impressed from the minute i set foot on the main lobby all the way till check-out. the lobby was filled with a soothing vanilla fragrance. staff was extra attentive and helpful. rooms were clean, adequately spacious and i don't think any other hotel offers free wired and wireless internet access. Our room also came with a free minibar. the location of the hotel is the best in orchard rd. Another plus is its close proximity to the mrt and bus stations. There is also a 24-hour starbucks, a kfc, and mcdonald's outlet nearby. one last thing, we noticed the numerous awards the hotel received over the years displayed at the lobby. we now know for a fact that each one of those awards were truly well-deserved!
Its location was perfect for business needs in Singapore City
The staff is really really great, make you feel you are in a palace! The ultra kitsh entrance hall although it reminds you, you are in "bling" Asia!
Its a good hotel with strategic locations for holiday and bussines.
The staff were friendly and helpful, the location was close to the main shopping areas, the room was comfortable and had free mini-bar which was a nice touch.
The Hotel location and facilities. The staff are always polite and willing to assist in anyway. Also they are immaculately dressed and attentive.
Very convenient location in high end area, very helpful staff
The Hotel is fantastic for a stop over in Singapore. The rooms are quiet, large, modern and ultra comfortable. The Hotel provides complimentary drinks and Nespresso coffee. The hotel is slap bang in the middle of the main shopping district. It is also great value for money- a little Singapore secret.
Good service on check-in and check-out. check-in was less than 15 minutes after arrival and check-out was less than 5 minute.good location which was close to orchard road and mrt station. comfortable rooms which includes mini bar, wifi internet, nespresso machine and good selection of cable tv channels
Everything about the hotel was excellent. My 1st choice of stay whenever I'm in Singapore whether on business or leisure.
Super room and bathroom, free wifi, good location for shopping and public transport.
How incredibly helpful the staff were. Very professional and friendly. The location was also great. Taxis right outside and close to all the shopping!!!!

Truth is, I thought it mattered. I thought that music mattered.
But does it? Bollocks! Not compared to how people matter.
- pete postlethwaite
I love rolling. In those days when your first instinct is to curl up in a little ball, rolling is a pleasent reminder that you may get knocked down but you can get up again. (as the song goes). Like rolling, bouncing back up does not come naturally but is something that has to be learned. Sometimes even the best rollers don't come back up on their first go but of course you just set up for the next attempt.
I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to
Keep me down

ONE: There's a group of union workers that's expected to go to work all day Thursday, Thanksgiving Day, and just about everyone likes it. At least they're not as hated as Wal-Mart. It's their time of year. The NFL's annual 'Turkey Day' games, a long, time-honored tradition, is set for a triple header Thursday. All three games are rivalries, which is like piling the dressing on our plates. It opens with Chicago at Detroit, two teams often seen on this day. In the afternoon, Philadelphia is at Dallas, a turkey day stalwart. Then in the evening the latest and bestest rivalry, Seattle at San Francisco. That doesn't have the same impact as it did in the beginning of the year – when both teams were fresh and unbowed – but both the Hawks and 49ers desperately need a victory here to enhance their post-season aspirations. Sunday, there are a couple good late games, New England at Green Bay (Brady vs. Rodgers) and Denver at Kansas City.
TWO: It was a bad collection of college football games last week that created very little turmoil. This week is not much better, but we're saved by the traditional rivalry games, such as Michigan at No. 6 Ohio State Saturday. The Buckeyes are aiming for the final four and the Wolverines would love to spill that applecart. No. 13 Arizona State takes on its natural rival, also ranked No. 13 Arizona on Friday. No. 18 Georgia Tech is at No. 10 Georgia Saturday. Both are outside the circle of contention. No. 3 Florida will have another chance to escape with a narrow victory when it hosts Florida Saturday. No. 4 Mississippi State plays No. 8 Old Miss. That's a good one for those Southern institutions. The one game that likely will attract the most eyeballs, however, is No. 14 Auburn at No. 1 Alabama. Don't think rival Oregon State has what it takes this year to challenge No. 2 Oregon.
THREE: Soccer continues to draw a pulse, at least on the coasts. The two best teams in the West and recent rivals, L.A. Galaxy and Seattle Sounders, play the second leg of their series Sunday in Seattle. The Galaxy won, 1-0, in the first game Sunday. Saturday, New England goes to close out the New York Red Bulls in the East Conference series. The Revolution beat the Red Bulls, 2-1 Sunday.
FOUR: This is just the beginning of the silly season. It's also the time championships can be won. The Boston Red Sox struck Sunday night by leaking word that infielder Hanley Ramirez is about to sign a $90 million contract, which is mere funny money to most people, even those getting it. How do you grasp that kind of cash? Then realize that Giancarlo Stanton will be getting $325 million over 13 years with Miami. To answer your question, no, there is no end to it. More free agents will fall this week and they will fall in the lap of luxury. But that's what it takes this time of year to put a championship foundation together. Just try not to think of how high that dollar-bill pile would be.

In 2009, Southern Vermont College Added New Living and Learning Space with Hunter Hall
Southern Vermont College opened its architecturally beautiful living and learning space, Hunter Hall and Greenberg Atrium, to students in 2009.
For frequent updates and photos of the construction in process, select the timeframe you're interested in:
- Spring 2010
- Fall 2009
- Summer 2009
- Spring 2009
- January 2009
- November 2008
- October 2008
- September 2008
- Summer 2008
Pictured above is an architectural rendering of the 41,000-square-foot structure's façade. (Click here for a full-sized image)
On June 6, 2008, a formal Groundbreaking Ceremony was held, which marked the momentous project. Due to inclement weather the ceremony and program were held inside the Everett Mansion. Click here to view photos from the event.
The three-building, three-story structure will be located south of the current dormitories and cafeteria, across the pond that, as part of the construction project, will be restored and flanked by walking paths. It will be linked to the upper campus and the Everett Mansion by a walking path.
In the foreground of the picture below is a model of the new residence hall, with the pond and the current residence halls beyond.
The inset photograph at right presents the view from the residence hall site facing east toward the town of Bennington and Bald Mountain beyond. The Southwest Vermont Medical Center is just visible below.
With current residential capacity for 230 students in five residence halls, the expansion project comes in response to projected increases in enrollment over the next six years during which time the College anticipates expanding its student population to 750.
Every room in the complex is a single in a suite style (with four to five single rooms per suite) as depicted in the drawings below of the room and suite floor plans. Each suite has a shared full bath as well as a half-bath, and a shared common room. Each floor also has a shared common lounge and study room.
Reproduced below is the floor plan for the residence hall's main level. Please note that the entranceway to the complex opens to a large lounge area with a balcony, working fireplace and full kitchen that can be used for events.
The new residence hall is geared toward upper-class students.
Green Building Practices
Southern Vermont College built Hunter Hall with a keen eye toward energy efficiency opportunities. Below is a summary of some of the green building practices implemented in Hunter Hall:
- It is a super insulated building, with R-29 walls and R-50 ceilings. Also, the entire building is wrapped in 2" rigid insulation to minimize thermal transmission through the framing;
- Comprehensive air sealing to meet Efficiency Vermont standards;
- Low-E argon windows;
- Insulation, air sealing, and windows allow downsized mechanical systems, reducing energy consumption.
- High efficiency lighting and natural day lighting;
- Occupancy sensors to control lighting;
- Low-flow plumbing fixtures;
- Local materials sourced within a 500-mile radius used whenever possible;
- Large roof overhangs that protect the building from the summer sun while allowing sun to enter the building in winter;
- Prepared for future solar hot water heaters for domestic hot water;
- Heating system designed to accommodate a future wood pellet boiler that will supply heat for the entire building;
- Constructed using building materials that will last for 50 years or more, significantly longer than the industry standard of 20 years; and
- Building placement minimizes northern exposure.

DEFINITION of 'Convertible Bond'
A bond that can be converted into a predetermined amount of the company's equity at certain times during its life, usually at the discretion of the bondholder.
Convertibles are sometimes called "CVs."
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Convertible Bond'
Issuing convertible bonds is one way for a company to minimize negative investor interpretation of its corporate actions. For example, if an already public company chooses to issue stock, the market usually interprets this as a sign that the company's share price is somewhat overvalued. To avoid this negative impression, the company may choose to issue convertible bonds, which bondholders will likely convert to equity anyway should the company continue to do well.
From the investor's perspective, a convertible bond has a value-added component built into it; it is essentially a bond with a stock option hidden inside. Thus, it tends to offer a lower rate of return in exchange for the value of the option to trade the bond into stock.

Category — Keeper's Komments
Close Enough to Care
Each and every day at the Cincinnati Zoo we ask ourselves "How do we inspire our guests to truly care about wild animals and wild places?" What we have determined is this caring starts with a personal connection between a guest and one of our wonderful animals. We call this getting our visitors "close enough to care." The Zoo's goal is to bring guests up close and personal with as many animals as possible. This could mean standing within inches of a Malayan tiger, racing against chickens in the Blakely's Barnyard Bonanza, or touching a flamingo while walking through the Zoo.
And, the Zoo's Interpretive Collection is critical to the success of this goal. Also known as the Zoo's outreach collection, more than 200 animals are used exclusively for educational programming and intimate encounters with guests. Bringing animals out on Zoo grounds and into classrooms allows guests and students to get close enough to care. Once someone can make a physical connection, phobias are broken down and a new understanding emerges. Adults and children alike make a personal connection with the animals as individuals. Our hope is that this will translate into caring for the species as a whole.
Every animal in the Interpretive Collection can be handled in one way or another by specially trained staff and volunteers. The animals are cared for by seven full-time keepers that are fully devoted to supporting the mission of the Zoo through close-encounter experiences. The Interpretive Collection's mission is to provide unique opportunities and experiences, positive relationships, and greater knowledge to the people and animals we encounter each day.
The Interpretive animals are often found running in and out of a circle of children, flying over-head in a classroom, coiling around an arm, flapping down a path, creeping over a hand, burrowing under an arm, or rooting through a garden. We aim to let each animal showcase its natural skills and abilities. Every animal is given the choice to participate in a program or encounter, which keeps the animal, visitor, and keeper happy.
Many of our animals are trained through operant conditioning, using only positive reinforcement. Some are simply trained to crate themselves while others are trained to exhibit said natural behaviors for guests. Relaxed animals make for great encounters and that is an important rule that the Interpretive Collection staff lives by.
As the Zoo's attendance continues to increase and more educational programming is added, the need to grow the Interpretive Collection also increases. We already have the distinction as one of the largest (if not THE largest!) interpretive collection in the United States. So the next time you are at the Zoo or the Zoo is visiting you – get up close with the animals. Ask questions, touch them, take your time and study them. Whatever you do, please get close enough to care!

Rhino Conservation in Uganda: The Human Effect
By Renee Carpenter, Rhino and Hoofed Stock Keeper
Seven years ago, I had an amazing opportunity to represent the Zoo at an International Rhino Keeper Conference hosted in Australia. During the week-long conference, I met a man named Henry Opio from the Uganda Wildlife Education Center (UWEC). Henry impressed me with his passion for conservation. He had a dream that black and white rhinos would someday return to the wild in Uganda where they had been eliminated through poaching in the 1980s. Wildlife and people alike had experienced tragic hardships and loss during that time of tremendous political and civil unrest. With the region now recovering, facilities like UWEC, with the full support of the current government, are working hard to save what was lost and foster a "pride of heritage" in the people for their wildlife.
As I spoke more with Henry, I fell in love with the idea of returning rhinos to Uganda, too. Henry presented on the possibility of reintroducing rhinos into Murchison Falls National Park in Uganda and how UWEC would reach out to each and every village surrounding the park before animals would be released (wow, what a huge task!). They would focus on the children and reach the parents and others in the community through them. I, along with a colleague, was there to present on a fundraising project called "Rhino Rembrandts" with proceeds going to field conservation…a possible aid to this Ugandan rhino project, I thought to myself.
After the excitement of the week, I was sitting in the plane for the twenty-plus hour flight home and I couldn't help but wonder…how could I help Henry and Uganda's lost rhinos with more than just what my little fundraiser would do? Coincidentally, when I returned to work I read an email about an internal grant opportunity with a fast approaching deadline. So, many emails and anxious waiting later… I have, just this past week, submitted the report for the seventh straight year of successful funding from the Zoo!
Back over in Uganda, my friend Henry and UWEC are working hard at conservation education on many fronts. However, the return of the rhino to a people re-learning the importance of safeguarding it is closest to my heart.
The human effect of any conservation initiative is what makes it successful. UWEC reaches out to the communities (person to person) through education about the importance of rhinos to their community as well as helps to improve daily life tasks such as farming and waste management practices and identification/use of medicinal plants. Through this process, the communities become invested in the idea of bringing rhinos back and the positive impact it will have on them if the rhinos are protected.
For me personally, last year's successful grant application brought the whole process very close to home. At the conclusion of last year's work, Henry contacted me about a 14-year-old girl named Vivian. She showed great interest and passion for rhino conservation. She also expressed to him concern about her father who was a poacher back in their village. She felt she could convince him to stop, even though that would mean ending the income that enabled her to attend school. Vivian's father was convinced and, in an attempt to still fund her education, he carved two beautiful wooden rhino statues and presented them to Henry for help. As you can see, they now have a new home here in Cincinnati. Henry was also able to help Vivian's father gain employment as a ranger protecting wildlife. It's fascinating how a person's actions can change when given a better option. This is what I love about this project – protecting wildlife while improving people's lives – a recipe for success! This has only been made possible by the Zoo's internal grant program and dedication to field conservation.
Although much more work needs to be done before rhinos once again roam in the wild in Uganda, the rhinos themselves are doing their part. At Ziwa Ranch in Uganda, they are busy making babies to support the release. UWEC's rhinos serve as ambassadors for any and all visitors and the dedicated staff there will continue to work with the communities surrounding Murchison Falls National Park until they have all been reached (fingers crossed for future success in partnering).
As a rhino and hoofed stock keeper here at the Zoo, I have been blessed, alongside my friends and colleagues, with the opportunity to work with these awesome animals, be involved in efforts to safeguard them in the wild, and to share my experiences and love of rhinos with the people I meet.
So I invite you to come visit us here at the Zoo and be part of the human effect of conservation, too! There are so many more people like Vivian out there just waiting for that connection to become stewards of their own land and wildlife.
Also, don't miss World Rhino Day on September 21st here at the Zoo when we celebrate these marvels of nature and the work being done to safeguard them. Come out and have some family fun while making a difference!

Asha the Gorilla's Expected "Little" Bundle of Joy is "Big" Part of a Much Larger Picture.
The Cincinnati Zoo Primate Department provides excellent care for our extended family of about 25 primate species, which includes approximately 70 individuals. A lot of effort goes into their care and proper management. In addition to the basic nutritionally balanced diet, exemplary husbandry, and dynamic environmental enrichment, a comprehensive operant conditioning (OC) program has been in place for more than ten years. Operant conditioning with positive reinforcement refers to a method of training that incorporates building a trusting relationship with the animals along with a systemic communication technique that allows keepers to cooperatively shape desired behaviors needed from them to make the animals' lives better.
For instance through OC training, the Zoo's Western-lowland gorillas have numerous behaviors that they will offer to aid in evaluating health. The gorillas will present their hands, feet, ears, bellies, backs, knees, shoulders, open their mouths, and stick out their tongues, all on cue followed by a positive reinforcement, which is usually a favorite food item like grapes. OC is engaging and mentally stimulating for the gorillas and allows keepers and vets the opportunity to do some important work with them. The Zoo's gorillas will also allow cardiac ultrasound imaging work to be done, all voluntarily, while awake, through a protective mesh safely separating the keepers and gorillas. Training techniques are also used to encourage natural behaviors and help form a cohesive social dynamic within the family group.
Recently, we initiated some maternal management behavior training with an expecting gorilla named "Asha". One of our primary goals was to do regular fetal ultrasounds throughout the pregnancy. Early on in the pregnancy, primate keeper Ashley Ashcraft worked as the primary trainer for this. As with most of the OC work, the zoo's wonderful vet techs, Jenny Kroll and Amy Long, were also included to assist with the monitoring, along with additional help from the Zoo's Lindner Center for Conservation & Research of Endangered Wildlife (CREW) scientists. Throughout Asha's gestation we have been able to follow along with fetal development and are still doing ultrasounds once or twice a week as we come down to parturition. At this point, the fetus is a little too big to see fully on ultrasound but we clearly see a good heartbeat and movement. Asha, understandably, rests a lot and eats like a horse. She is still well within the predicted birth period so all is looking good. Gorillas have a gestation period of 250 to 280 days.
Asha will be a first-time mom but has great history with younger siblings, from growing up in Brownsville, Texas. She has also had the chance to watch little Gladys, with her surrogate mother "Mlinzi", for additional lessons. The Zoo's team of volunteer observers are also watching Asha overnight, by remote monitor, just to be extra safe. The family group Asha currently lives with is very cohesive and lead by the great silverback, named "Jomo," who is also very good with little ones.
Jomo (formally of the Toronto Zoo) and Asha, along with approximately 360 other gorillas in about 50 zoos, are managed cooperatively through something called a Species Survival Plan(SSP) under the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). The SSP carefully tracks the genetics of each gorilla, gorilla personalities and facilities, and with critical input from each zoo, develops a comprehensive Masterplan every two years that outlines recommended transfers for breeding, or to help social situations. Zoos are very altruistic in how they view gorillas and work hard together for the betterment of the overall big picture management.
So, thanks to great team work on the national level, as well as right here at the Cincinnati Zoo, we are prepared and patiently awaiting the birth of Asha's baby. Everyone is excited and very hopeful all will continue to go smoothly as we come down to the end. Stay tuned……

November 27, 2014
May 6, 2009
(AP) - Bill Stanley, a conservative lawyer from Franklin County, is running for chairman of the state Republican Party at its convention later this month.
In announcing his candidacy Wednesday, the attorney who represented former chairman Jeff Frederick at his ouster proceeding
last month repeated many of Frederick's themes.
He said in a three-page statement that the party must be driven by its conservative "grassroots," and it "must not permit the judgment of the few to instruct or override the will of the many."
He said the chairman "must be elected, not anointed."
That's similar to what an angry Frederick said after the party's
governing central committee voted 57-18 on April 4 to remove him.
Last weekend, the committee elected longtime Fairfax and Loudoun
GOP activist Pat Mullins as interim chairman. Convention delegates
will choose between him and Stanley on May 30.

The pop icon opened the big show at the Superdome with Love On Top and was joined by a large troupe of dancers for renditions of her smash hits Crazy In Love, End of Time and Baby Boy, which included a visually stunning dance routine.
Her former Destiny's Child pals Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams then jumped out from beneath the stage to play their first live set in five years.
The girls, all dressed in skin-tight black leather, turned up the heat with sexy performances of Bootylicious and Charlie's Angels theme tune Independent Women, complete with pyrotechnics.
Rowland and Williams stayed on stage to join Beyonce for her hit Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) and then departed as she wrapped the 12-minute gig solo with Halo.
Famous fans of the headliner took to Twitter.com after the performance to rave about the set - Demi Lovato declared: "Good GOD Beyonce is one of the greatest performers to have ever walked this planet... She's KILLING IT!!!!!", while Olivia Munn mused: "Wow. Beyonce brought Destiny's Child to Super Bowl 2013! What a woman/friend to share this moment w/ (with the) people who helped start it all."
Sophia Bush told her fans:"Never has their been a woman so simultaneously sexy-as-f**k and so-damn-classy", and rapper Eve commented: "Who gave B s**t for lip syncing??? She just MURDERED half time!! Love the Destiny's Child moment".
Beyonce's sister Solange Knowles simply stated: "No. One. Better."
The superstar made a point to sing the whole show-stopping set live after the controversy at US President Barack Obama's inauguration ceremony last month, when she was caught bolstering her vocals for the National Anthem with a pre-recorded version of The Star-Spangled Banner.
The Super Bowl kicked off with Beyonce's Dreamgirls co-star Jennifer Hudson, who paid tribute to victims of the December shooting at Newtown, Connecticut's Sandy Hook Elementary School by performing America the Beautiful with the school's choir, while Alicia Keys belted out the National Anthem while playing a grand piano.
The Baltimore Ravens led the San Francisco 49ers 21-6 at half-time. Play was interrupted for 34 minutes at the start of the third quarter due to a power cut to the stadium, but the Ravens just managed to hold on to a narrow lead as the 49ers made a second half charge to end the game 34-31 and take home the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

November 28, 2014
Superintendent, Scottie Griffin, unveiled the first set of her budget recommendations.
The budget didn't seem to go over too well with the public.
"It takes much consideration, but my gut reaction is this does not move the school board in the way the community would like it to move," said an attendant, Stephen Campbell.
Some of the things Griffin includes in her plan are to cut the number of PE teachers at the elementary level and guidance councilors, in half.
Also, a number of individuals would be losing their jobs after the end of the school year.
"On those five key points, most of those don't make sense. In this time of great obesity of our children, to reduce the PE program at this time. We have a lot of disadvantaged youth in the city, it doesn't make sense to cut the guidance program. We spent more than a decade reducing the central office staff in reference to spending money in the classroom. It doesn't seem to make sense to reverse that trend and put money back into the central office especially, on the classroom instruction," said Campbell.
If you'd like to get involved there will be a work session to discuss the budget in detail.
For the time and date of that discussion log on to the Charlottesville School Board's Web site: http://www.ccs.k12.va.us

Wind turbines of the Future, Purdue Researchers Leading Project-WLFI.com
May 28, 2009
Purdue engineers and Sandia National Laboratory are producing a "smarter" wind turbine structure that reacts better to changing conditions to better transfer energy from the wind to the turbine blades, and from the turbine blades into the electrical grid.
"There needs to be a way to try to sense what the blade is doing in terms of the wind as it acts on the blade. How is it deflecting? What are the forces that are transmitted through the blade to the hub?" said Adams.
Mechanical Engineering Associate Professor Doug Adams said right now there's no real way to measure those forces, which can hurt reliability.
"If you can identify when the wind fluctuates you can do better maintenance on the turbines, because that fluctuation is what drives reliability problems in the gear boxes," said Adams.
Adams said the measurements collected will also help capture wind energy.
"You can optimize energy capture for low winds to high wind conditions," said Adams.
To measure those forces, engineers embedded 12 sensors inside a wind turbine blade as it was being built. Purdue Doctoral Student Jonathon White is leading the research with Adams. He said testing has now begun on this wind turbine located in Bushland, Texas.
With the United States being the world's largest harvester of wind power, White says he hopes the new "smart" turbines will pop up all over the country.
White said the team has more questions to pursue even after they are satisfied with the new the new turbine.
"How can we retrofit turbines that already exist? There are many more turbines that are going to be installed or are currently installed, but still you'd like the ability to go back into the turbines that are already in there and go back and retrofit with the new technology," said White.
The research is ongoing, but White said a patent is currently pending for the smart turbine blades. With the information already collected during the past year, White said the smart blades may be available for commercial use within six months.

A Charleston man threw a beer can at a North Charleston store clerk when he was caught stealing it, then punched the clerk and another person outside the store, according to police.
Peter Jenkins, 52, of Heathwood Drive, was charged with strong-arm robbery and second-degree assault and battery on Sunday morning.
A clerk at Tiger Mart, at 3255 Rivers Ave., caught Jenkins taking a beer from the store and opening it, according to an incident report. When the clerk confronted him, Jenkins threw the beer can at her and began punching her and threatened to kill her, the report stated.
Jenkins then went outside and began using an umbrella to hit a person outside the store, according to the report.
When a North Charleston police officer approached Jenkins, he ignored him, the report stated. When the officer tried putting his hands on him, Jenkins pushed the officer off and "took a fighting stance," according to the report.
The officer grabbed Jenkins by the arm and Jenkins tried to resist him by pulling away, until the officer was able to get him handcuffed, police said.

I've got good news and bad news for y'all. The good news is, Jared Evan and Statik Selektah have stepped into the Booth with a fresh collaborative record. The bad news is the song itself—as in, its title is actually "Bad News." So, really, I was f*cking with you and it's all good news. A bonus track off the iTunes version of their collaborative debut, this smoky, soulful number finds the unsigned singer, songwriter and producer lamenting the spell a certain shawty has him under. As the freestyle series alum explains over his partner's vibraphone-laced sample work, he knows she'll only lead him into ruin, but still he can't seem to stay away. Like what you're hearing? Then click here to cop the record, along with the rest of Evan and Statik's Boom Bap & Blues LP, via iTunes. The original version of the set is still available for streaming in The DJBooth.
