Malcolm "Ole Jade Jaw" Harbatken posted these images of Vlad by Daniel Leister and Cassie and Vlad by Tim Seeley.
Tim Seeley's new ongoing series EFFIGY was announced for January 2015 release at the VERTIGO imprint at DC Comics. See Comic Book Resources for more on the story and an interview with Seeley.
As part of New York Comic Con's Vertigo: Defy Conventions panel, the DC Comics imprint is announcing that Tim Seeley, who is currently co-writing "Grayson" and Batman Eternal," will make his Vertigo debut in January 2015 with a new ongoing series titled "Effigy."
The series, illustrated by relative newcomer Marley Zarcone ("Madame Xanadu"), is about a former Hollywood child star-turned-Z-lister named Chondra Jackson who returns to her hometown of Effigy Mound, Illinois after a sex tape scandal. Troubled by her own personal life, she finds a seemingly impossible crime — a fresh corpse in an ancient Indian burial site. Even weirder, the murder resembles a scene from an episode of the old TV show, "Star Cop," a live-action children's show about a kid detective, that she used to star in.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
We are extremely confident that we are making the best choice in education by sending our child to North Shore Community School. The staff and administration at NSCS are outstanding: they are all caring, highly competent, and committed to providing a safe and rich learning environment. . We have found the administration to be very approachable and attentive. The staff go above and beyond on a daily basis. We are very happy with the responsiveness of the school to our child's individual needs. We are grateful for every opportunity that NSCS provides for our student. We know he is well cared for and getting a stellar education. The best part: our student is excited to go to school every day!
I think it is a privilege to be able to send my daughter to an excellent school like North Shore Community School, which is a charter school for free. I drive 25 miles one way every day to make sure my daughter goes there-which is a commitment in itself. My daughter is the youngest of our children, ranging from 27 to 11. Our older ones went to various schools in the Twin Cities, both private and public. The cost of private school was just as much as college tuition, and not necessarily as good. I never felt that I could share my concerns with those schools and have my voice heard. With North Shore Community School I feel that they are willing to hear me and adjust if they feel my concerns are valid. That in itself is a contribution to the education of our children. If the parents and teachers can work together it is ultimately for the benefit of the children and community as a whole. I feel that I have found that at North Shore Community School.
I m saddened to hear about the misgivings of some of the earlier posts. I have been able to share my concerns through email, which works the best for me, and I have always gotten a response back within a reasonable amount of time. If there are parental concerns I would suggest to go through the PTA to be able to communicate more efficiently until the matter is resolved? They might be able to problem-solve some issues too. I think every school has some issues that not everyone is happy with. It s finding a way to be heard and finding a balance for everyone that is a challenge- which I think the administration is continually working to improve that immense job. As far as not having a full-time nurse on staff, I think it s ok overall. I was glad to hear that all of the staff had gotten training on allergic reactions and epi-pens. Schools need to adjust as kids have different needs, which they seems to be doing. I don t think a full-time nurse would be of great benefit, but that is just my opinion. So, to wrap up this long review, I think North Shore Community School is the best school in the Northland.
North Shore Community School is a great school with dedicated teachers and an administration committed to providing a quality education for students. We chose to send our children to North Shore and are glad we made the choice. Advice to other parents: make your choice on where to send your kids to school by visiting the school and talking with the teachers and staff.
This school used to be a great school until a couple years ago! The teachers and administration are not impressive! They have cut funding and last year was the last straw, they cut the school nurse! The nurse they had was wonderful to the students and staff. Yet they cut her because they couldn't afford her. Its funny how they keep adding on the school, but they can't afford a school nurse!!! (Plus you know that the school nurse was not paid well.) So now the secretary is in charge of the nurses office, THAT IS WRONG!! The secretary already has enough on her plate but now she's in charge of the nurses office now too. What happens if there's a hurt child on the playground and they need a nurse there asap, what happens to the office during this time?? This is just ONE of my complaints about this school!!
My wife and I also once were proud to send our children to the school. We had no misgivings with the first two who attended the school but that was 3 years ago. We still stand behind the teaching staff but our concerns are with the schools administration. We had every intention of having our youngest continue at the school through 6th grade but before the start of this year, we had a change of heart and enrolled him in another school. We expressed our concerns to the director, via voice mails and emails, why we were making a switch but to this day have never received a return call. We have spoken to other parents of our doubts about the school and several agree with us....the teachers are some of the best around but the lack of support from administration have us doubting if the number 1 priority of the administration is the welfare and education of our children.
I used to be a huge cheerleader of this school. We loved it for 3 years. As long as you do not expect the administrators to return phone calls or e-mails about serious issues, then it might be OK. The board seems to have little direct control over the job performance of the 2 administrators. The teachers are dedicated and seem to run the school fine with little leadership. The curriculum is pretty good, too. However, there have been some serious leadership issues in the past 2-3 years and they make one seriously question the future of the school and whether or not the needs of all kids are considered when making important policy decisions. The school actively contracts out work that directly impacts student success and the resulting turnover and lack of quality in these areas is a concern. There is no school nurse or dedicated health aide.
I can tell by reading the reviews, that this would not be a school of choice for my children. Seriously! Learn how to spell! Also have friends with children there - they have many regrets.
Use this school as a last resort. If you want your children to regress, than send them to this school. The two stars is for the arts and crafts program. They at least do this well.
My oldest son went to North Shore and my youngest son is a 3rd grader there. The staff is highly qualified, motivated, adaptive and creative. In being a charter school, they are not handcuffed by a large administration so decisions can be made quickly. Being on 40 acres, the staff and kids have an excellent outdoor lab. They are very good at securing funding for all kinds of projects (greenhouse, cross country skis, snowshoes, hockey rink and warming shack, playground equipment, 3 new classrooms and computer room, etc.). Most of the staff are long term, although they do not get tenured, which in my opinion, allows the administration/school board to act quickly if a staff member is not doing their job (this has not been much of an issue since any openings that become available are very much in demand, due to the school's reputation).
I am so thankful my kids go to NSCS! I wish my oldest would have had the opportunity to attend, but I feel blessed my youngest 2 are being taught by these amazing individuals. I feel they truly care for these children and take extra pride in making sure they are succeeding and reaching their true potential. When their is a child that is strugging the teachers make sure they get the help they need. The extra-curricular activities are wonderful and the community involvement is above no other. Special thank you to Mrs. Camper and Mrs. Compton
They really work hard with students epsessily Mrs.Wood
When moving back to the Duluth area, we specificly chose to build in Duluth Township so our children would attend North Shore. My husband and I are both educators, and the quality/variety of education our children get here is way above what our own experiences have been in other schools.
Upon moving to the Duluth/Two Harbors area we were concerned we would not find a school that was to our expectations! We were refered to NSCS because of its all day Kindergarten program!! We love this school , the teachers, others staff and above all the cirriculum!!! They have so many oppurtunities not offered at other schools. The Fabolus music and art specialist. Quality PE , that gives them a goal to live a healthy lifestyle. The Reading and Math cirriculum is top notch!! Also several afterschool activities with a wide range of interests included! And the outside space they have to explore is beyond compare! I can't imagine my children going to school anywhere else!! All around EXCELLENCE!!!

Nintendo 3DS Finally Hacked After 3 Years On The Shelves

This evening, a hacker going by Smealum released an exploit that seems to allow 3DS owners to run unauthorized code — or "homebrew", as it's known — on their devices. Read More

The menu at Rav's Creekside Tap & Grill is definitely extensive?patrons can order anything from calamari and 12 kinds of wings to half-pound burgers and new york strip steak. But ribs are their specialty, half or full slabs of pork that's steamed in beer before being slow-roasted and painted with a choice of sauce. And like the diverse menu, there's also a diverse lineup of entertainment here, including seven HDTVs and a projection screen for games, as well as karaoke, DJs, and live bands. Whatever the evening's entertainment, groups should make a point to check out the patio, which is one of the largest overlooking nearby Tinkers Creek.
Inside Panini's Bar and Grill's palace of brick and stone in Twinsburg, pennants, jerseys, and famed sports photos bathe in the glow of 31 high-definition televisions. Outdoors, a bank of four televisions hangs over a covered bar, the centerpiece of the full-service outdoor patio. To round out the pairing of sports and overstuffed sandwiches, Saturday nights bring in live entertainment. Panini's has hosted such acts as the Rocket Men Dueling Pianos, in which two astronauts drop grand pianos on one another to demonstrate the principles of gravity.
Gionino's Pizzeria serves up Italian and American eats ranging from pizza and pasta to fried chicken and wings. Specialty pizzas include the mediterranean, topped with spinach, feta, and roasted red peppers, and Gionino's Best, a signature pie with nine toppings, including four meats and veggies such as black olives, banana peppers, and mushrooms. Fried chicken is prepared in peanut oil, and unbreaded chicken wings are slathered in a choice of seven sauces, including hot, honey mustard, or spicy garlic.

NEW YORK Nonferrous scrap exporter Longyu International Inc. is suing a New York recycler for allegedly shorting loads of copper scrap that Longyu had paid it to export to China.
Longyu is seeking nearly $151,000 in damages from Troy, N.Y.-based eLot Electronics Recycling Inc. and its proprietors, Anthony Dawson and Morris Freedman, according to the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in California.
Monterey Park, Calif.-based Longyu said it paid nearly $318,000 for four containers of scrap copper wire from eLot in February and March 2012 and have the recycler ship the material to China.
When the containers arrived in China, however, they weighed less than the contracts stipulated and were "found to contain inferior copper wire, circuit boards and other materials which were not in compliance" with Longyus agreements with eLot and resulted in fines and penalties for the company, according to the court filing.
The lawsuit accuses eLot and its proprietors of fraud for "knowingly misrepresent(ing) and omit(ting) information regarding the true nature of the materials that (eLot) had sold and shipped."
In May, Camden Iron & Metal Inc. sued Dawson and Freedman for allegedly contaminating and failing to clean up a 12-acre scrapyard in Green Island, N.Y., that Camden purchased from the pair in 2010, leaving the Camden, N.J.-based recycler with the cost of remediating the site (amm.com, May 6).
Neither Longyu nor eLot could be reached for comment.

So most moms said that they have worries about when the baby comes, anyone else here have crazy past pregnancies?
|Sat, 12-11-2010 - 9:24am
Other than turning into a emotionally crazy person, nothing really extraordinary... though I am questioning my wisdom in reading this one... it seems a good way to get myself in trouble worrying about a whole bunch more conditions...
Probably the weirdest thing I had was actually post-partum, and it was wierd because it is not supposed to happen post-partum.
|Sat, 12-11-2010 - 12:49pm
PUPP very rarely happens in subsequent pregnancies and almost never after birth.
|Sat, 12-11-2010 - 2:57pm
Thank you in regard to my name.
Thank you also for your concern that my doctors have misdiagnosed me, but there is really little question that it is PUPPPs.

5.0 out of 5 stars PERFECT Luggage-LOADS of Compliments,
Tallgirl77 (GILBERT, AZ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rockland 3 Piece Vision Polycarbonate Abs Luggage Set (Apparel)
I am a frequent business traveler for the last 15 years (at least 10 trips a year or more) and I have used a lot of different luggage over the years.
This luggage is hands down, the best luggage I have ever used. Here is why:
1. The hard side luggage stands up so nicely to wear and tear. I have used it twice now, and all I had to do was use one of those magic sponges to remove a few scuff marks from the dirty conveyer belt.
2. The 4 wheels are an absolute necessity. They turn flawlessly, allow you to let go of the handle to show ID, get a latte, etc.
3. The handle expands and goes back in like it should. No fumbling or problems and the handle goes down far enough into the case as to not get broken when the baggage handlers throw it around.
4. The inside of the luggage is very practical and roomy. I use the side with the zippered protective cover for my nice business clothes. I roll my pants like towels, lay them on the bottom. Then I layer nicely folded shirts on top, and finish with my three business suit jackets layed on top. That way, when I zip the protective cover, the suit jackets never move in transit-- no matter how they throw it around, the suits stay firmly folded and protective. LOVE THIS! On the other, open side, I put my toiletries, shoes, cell phone plugs, etc. A nice feature is that the protective zipper side is the same side as the cute little metal wing medalion on the outside of the case so that you always know how to open the suitecase to avoid dumping the open area stuff on the ground if you make sure the little medalion is on the top when you unzip the case.
5. The design is so pretty. I bought the "Pucci"...the basic black with pink designs. I cannot tell you how many people commented on the beautiful luggage and asked me where I bought it (and not just women!) They look extremely classy and distictive, and I did not have any problems finding my luggage on the carousel!
Other reviewers have commented on the chemical smell when you receive them. I did have the same smell, but I was able to completely get rid of the smell by opening the three cases about a week before I used them, and after a few days of airing out, I sprayed the fabric inside with Febreeze. It worked like a charm, and my clothes did not smell like the chemicals when I arrived.
I am so in love with this luggage!
UPDATE 7/16/12: After traveling A LOT in the last month, I am still in love with this luggage...perhaps even more. The stable wheels are great, and everything is holding up perfect. I use the medium size for my trips of 3-4 days or less. I use the large size for 5 or more days. I have used both at least three times, with many transfers inbetween. (I have never used the smaller size as of this date) The luggage is receiving some "scratches" here and there-- which you would expect. When I get home, I wipe the luggage down with a damp cloth and use one of those magic sponges to remove any black smudges. However, the cases are not as amazingly shiny as when I first purchased them. So if that will bug you, there you go. I still think they are wonderful and I still get compliments on EVERY trip.
UPDATE 2/7/13: Still using the luggage several times a month, and it is still going strong. So far, nothing has broken, which is pretty amazing for me and my luck with luggage. I still mostly use the middle size piece, so it is getting the most wear and tear. And I still love it.
UPDATE 7/2/13: More than one year later, this luggage is still working like a champ. Middle size is getting the most wear (at least 15 flights and checked luggage encounters) and there has been no damage or problems. Zipper stills works great, wheels roll flawlessly. I LOVE THIS LUGGAGE !!
UPDATE: 2/26/14: Seriously, I still LOVE this luggage! I think it has made 20 trips since I purchased it. Middle size still getting most of the use, and nothing has been broken, fallen off or anything. Handle still telescopes up and down, wheels work flawlessly, even the zipper is working great. The shiny sheen is not there anymore, but it still looks great. I still get compliments.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!,
Michele Pelkonen "bayoumomma" (Mandeville, LA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rockland 3 Piece Vision Polycarbonate Abs Luggage Set (Apparel)
I wanted to wait until I had traveled with this set, in order to give it a fair review. I got the three-piece set in Pucci, as a gift before an overseas trip (to Finland and a Baltic Sea cruise). My fear was that the wheels would become damaged, as that has happened to every piece of rolling luggage I have owned (I suppose the gentle treatment of our U.S. baggage handlers just wasn't gentle enough).
I need not have worried! A long flight that connected through Chicago, and then on to Finland, then on to a cruise ship, and then back to Helsinki, and THEN being rolled over cobblestones, brick paving, concrete, toted up stairs, dragged on to buses, and so on -- the wheels have held up beautifully! The finish has scuffed some, and in one corner, the bag was so abused as to be scraped down to the fiberglass/plastic/whatever, but that's just decor. The function has been retained.
These bags are light, and might even feel a little flimsy, due to a lack of "heft", but they are workhorses. When used in conjunction with the e-bags (also on Amazon), I was able to pack quite a lot of stuff in to them. All three sizes (including the small) come with a zippered side, with handy sections, while the other side has the cross-fastened stretchy thing.
The only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 is what is probably a minor quibble, but enough that I ran into it a few times to make it stand out. Because they are hard-sided, if you want to add something small to them, you almost always have to entirely unzip the suitcase, add your item and then rezip it. You can't just stuff it with some give at the top. In addition, if the carry-on had some sort of outer pocket, I would be over-the-moon in love with these. I saw one in the Skyway magazine that claimed it was the only hardside with an outer pocket, but it definitely was a great idea.
Otherwise, these are a great investment and well worth every penny (and more!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it but....,
C. Dorsey (Cockeysville, Maryland United States) - See all my reviews
I love the look of the luggage, very easy to find, I bought the purple pearl. But.. I used it once last week and one of the wheels broke off. Not just the wheel but the whole shabang, casing and all. Part of the zipper had popped open too but was easy enough to fix. I like that it's a spinner and truly very light weight. I'm really hoping that Fox Luggage does the right thing and replaces or fixes it because I love the luggage. I have better more expensive luggage, but this set appeals to my senses. =
Be aware that because the luggage is hardsides, although pliable, it opens in 2 equal halves. One half does have a zippered cover but the other has only the straps so it can be tricky when opening and closing. Also, there are no outside pockets which doesn't bother me but some people want them.
I don't know how many stars to give. I absolutely love the color, the weight, the spinners but I don't know if the luggage is junk or what, I didn't use it long enough. I'm disappointed that I had a problem the first time out, but I'm hoping it was a fluke. I'd love to buy the luggage in different colors as gifts for my family. First I'll wait and see how the luggage company handles the problem.

4.0 out of 5 stars fits the bill,
I'm in a long distance relationship and fly cross country at least every month. Travel way to much and after two years of this my old luagage was a mess! I was looking for a hard shelled case where I wouldn't have to worry so much of my stuff getting broke or smashed. When I got this product it was a tad flimsier than I imagined. But I kept it anyway. Used it several times over the last couple monthes and it fits its purpose. Its bright and easy to find. Light weight and glides with ease ..even the large bag. The price was great! And most of all nothing in my bag has been broken or smashed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome set for the price,
This review is from: Rockland 3 Piece Vision Polycarbonate Abs Luggage Set (Apparel)
I bought this luggage because I wanted a hardsided spinner set that would be easy to spot on an airport luggage carousel. This set had such a great price and really unique patterns - I couldn't resist. I bought the butterfly print and have now taken the largest and the carry-on on an international trip. They've held up great. Did get a bit scuffed up, but I expected as much with a shiny hardside. The 360-degree wheels spin perfectly, and the telescoping handles operate smoothly. Glad I made this purchase! Only wish the purple set would've been available when I purchased - would've rather had that. Still, it's very unlikely I'll run into anyone else with the same pattern on the carousel!

This review is from: Rockland 3 Piece Vision Polycarbonate Abs Luggage Set (Apparel)
I just received my set today in the Pucci print. It is gorgeous! The colors are vibrant, the pieces are lightweight, and the handle doesn't take up too much room inside. I almost didn't buy this set because it appeared in the pictures that the zippers weren't lockable and I didn't see anything to the contrary in the description. I even asked customer service over at ebags and they said the zippers were not lockable. I'm so glad that I ordered this set anyway, because the zippers are indeed lockable!
I will be taking all three pieces on a trip to New Orleans in a couple of weeks, and based on others' reviews, I have high expectations that they will survive the airline's rough handling!
I had comparison-shopped in a couple of luggage stores (including an "outlet") prior to placing my order and could not find any 28" hardside spinners for less than $150!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!,
The luggage is beautiful!!! It is amazingly tough and I have used it three times, once international and it still has the 'out of the box' look. Best luggage ever, great buy!! Three good size pieces of luggage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value,
This review is from: Rockland 3 Piece Vision Polycarbonate Abs Luggage Set (Apparel)
I just returned from a marathon trip with this luggage. I was previously looking at a Samsonite product because I already have a spinner suitcase from them and love it. The prices are outrageous, however, so I looked for something more reasonable.
These suitcases are as described. I stuffed them to the gills and the zippers stayed true. The wheels didn't buckle. The spinning mechanism and the collapsible handle work perfectly. There is one minor scratch on the suitcases; otherwise they look shiny and new- better than the Samsonite I already own.
I purchased the butterfly pattern- it is the least "girly" option- our boys refused to be seen with the other choices.
The only thing I don't like is that the spinning mechanism takes up a decent amount of inside space- more than the Samsonite.
All in all, I heartily recommend this product and I thank the previous reviewers who convinced me to purchase them.

Obama vs. Us
The recent elections, which gave Republicans control of both houses of Congress, clearly indicate a repudiation of much of Obama's agenda. But the question is whether the Republican majority has the courage to act on that repudiation and stop the president from running roughshod over the Constitution.
Educational Fraud
The discovery of the "phantom courses" at UNC and resulting scandal are simply the tip of the iceberg and a symptom of a much larger problem.
Scholar-Athlete Charade
Chapel Hill campus of the University of North Carolina, the state's flagship university. Nearly 50 percent of the students taking the phantom classes were athletes on the university's football and basketball teams.
Africa: A Tragic Continent. But Why?
Poverty is not a cause but a result of Africa's problems. What African countries need the West cannot provide. They need personal liberty.
Embarrassing Economists
There are economists, most notably Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman, who suggest that the law of demand applies to everything except labor prices (wages) of low-skilled workers.
FDA: Officially Killing Americans
When the FDA calls a news conference to announce approval of a drug, somebody should ask the official how many Americans died from the drug's not being approved the previous year.
Teacher Indoctrination
Students at several Jefferson County, Colorado, high schools walked out to protest the school board's recently proposed curriculum review committee that seeks to promote patriotism, respect for authority, free enterprise, plus the positive aspects of U.S. history.
Do Statistical Disparities Mean Injustice?
How many times have we heard laments such as "women are 50 percent of the population but only 5 percent of Fortune 500 CEOs" and, as the Justice Department recently found, "blacks are 54 percent of the population in Newark, New Jersey, but 85 percent of pedestrian stops and 79 percent of arrests"?
The Role of Money in Politics: Favors and Loot for Sale
The bedrock problem is the awesome power of Congress. We Americans have asked, demanded and allowed congressmen to ignore their oaths of office and ignore the constitutional limitations imposed on them. The greater the congressional power to give handouts and grant favors and make special privileges the greater the value of being able to influence congressional decision-making.
Things I Don't Understand
If one cannot contract Ebola, as the CDC claims, except through exchange of bodily fluids, then why were millions of dollars spent transporting Ebola patients Dr. Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol from Liberia to a U.S. hospital under extreme isolation procedures?

Air Force ADP:
Systems Funded Without Adequate Cost/Benefit Analyses
IMTEC-90-6: Published: Dec 28, 1989. Publicly Released: Jan 30, 1990.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-6240
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Air Force Logistics Command's (AFLC) development of four management information systems, focusing on: (1) whether initial project planning weaknesses identified in other system development projects occurred in these projects; and (2) the cost-benefit analyses AFLC prepared in justifying and planning the projects.
GAO found that: (1) AFLC performed inadequate cost-benefit analyses on three of the four projects, while the fourth project, the Air Force Technical Order Management System (AFTOMS) was still in the initial planning stage; (2) the cost-benefit analyses that AFLC performed on the Air Force Equipment Management System (AFEMS), the Automated Technical Order System (ATOS), and the Reliability and Maintainability Information System (REMIS) included only the existing system and one alternative, even though AFLC identified several feasible alternatives for each project; (3) AFLC claimed that the new systems would provide about $8.4 billion in benefits, but could not support any of the claimed benefits; (4) AFLC significantly understated estimated project costs because it did not include data-loading costs in its analyses; (5) although the Air Force stated that AFLC could have done more complete analyses, it believed that the analyses met minimum requirements; and (6) many systems experienced cost increases and schedule slippages, because the Air Force consistently allowed systems to proceed into development with deficient cost-benefit analyses.

You are within 30 minutes of being incinerated from nuclear weapons!
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
8/1/2014 (3 months ago)
Published in Living Faith
Keywords: nuclear weapons, weapons of mass destruction, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Obama, Putin, Global Zero, Bruce Blair, St. John XXIII, Pacem in Terris, Tony Magliano
If you live in or near a large U.S. city or major military installation, you are in harm's way. And when considering that radiation fallout from a nuclear attack would hurt virtually everyone, we are all threatened by nuclear weapons.
Dr. Bruce Blair, a former officer responsible for 50 Minuteman nuclear missiles in Montana, and now co-founder of Global Zero (www.globalzero.org) - an international organization dedicated to eliminating all nuclear weapons - shared with me a highly dangerous little known fact: Both the United States and Russia each have approximately 1,000 nuclear warheads still aimed at each other. And what's even worse, these weapons of mass destruction are programmed at launch ready alert - otherwise known as hair-trigger alert.
Because Russian and American land-based nuclear missiles can reach their targets in just 30 minutes, Blair said "the president, after a very short briefing, would have just 12 minutes max, and more plausibly only five minutes to decide whether to launch a nuclear attack against Russia. And if a reported Russian attack is launched from sea, the president would only have seconds to make a decision."
Blair said that Russia has a very similar system, except that much of theirs is antiquated, thus increasing the chance of a nuclear exchange based on misinformation or technical malfunction.
In fact, due to sloppy communications and/or computer errors, Russia and the U.S. have come within minutes of nuclear war more than once.
This very dangerous game of nuclear American-Russian roulette should deeply concern each one of us.
And when we factor in that seven other nations possess nuclear weapons, the chance of nuclear war increases significantly, especially when we consider the very unstable regimens of Pakistan and North Korea.
On August 6, 1945 over 70,000 people - mostly civilians - were killed when a United States Boeing B-29 bomber dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan.
Then on August 9, 1945 the U.S. dropped a second atomic bomb, this time on the Japanese city of Nagasaki, killing at least 60,000 people - again mostly civilians. At the time Nagasaki was the center of Japanese Catholicism.
The tremendous death and destruction caused by these two nuclear weapons is small in comparison to the carnage that would result today from the detonation of two far more powerful modern nuclear weapons.
And since a limited nuclear exchange would likely escalate into an all-out nuclear war, the death and destruction that would result is unimaginable.
Global Zero has developed a plan to completely eliminate the world's approximate 16,000 nuclear weapons by 2030. To learn how you can help, go to http://www.globalzero.org/our-movement.
Global Zero co-founder Bruce Blair said that an international conference of all nuclear countries, and would be nuclear countries, needs to be convened to work out an agreement on a step by step process towards a world without nuclear weapons.
Also, Russia and the U.S. need to take the missiles aimed at each other off hair-trigger alert by physically removing the warheads form each missile, said Blair.
Please contact President Obama urging him to convene an international nuclear weapons elimination conference, and to enter into negotiations with Russia to take the missiles aimed at each other off hair-trigger alert.
Just go to www.whitehouse.gov and click "contact us."
And ask your parish, school, and friends to do this.
Recently canonized St. John XXIII would like to weigh in here. In his prophetic encyclical Pacem in Terris ("Peace on Earth") he wrote, "Justice, then, right reason and consideration for human dignity and life urgently demand that the arms race should cease...that nuclear weapons should be banned."
Let's pray and work that justice, right reason, consideration for human dignity and life prevail!

Policy Brief
Rules Issued for State Fiscal Stabilization Aid, Round 2
The U.S. Department of Education last week issued a detailed list of data and information that states will need to submit if they want to get a piece of the second and final round of State Fiscal Stabilization Fund money—$11.5 billion this time—under the federal economic-stimulus program.
The last round of funding is part of the nearly $48.6 billion fund created under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to help state budgets weather the economic downturn. The final installment will be distributed in coming months.
To qualify for that money, states will need to meet a total of 35 reporting requirements, according to the applications released Nov. 12. Eight of the criteria can be addressed using already existing data.
The criteria address the four "assurances" that Congress wanted states to work on as a condition of getting stimulus money, including teacher quality and distribution, standards and assessments, state data systems, and turning around low-performing schools.
Teachers and Turnarounds
This time around, the Education Department is seeking some additional specifics on teachers and teacher evaluation, including whether evaluation systems take into account student-achievement outcomes or student-growth data. Officials also want to know about systems used to evaluate and promote principals and determine their compensation.
The teacher requirements also ask states to specify the number and percentage of core academic courses taught, in the highest-poverty and lowest-poverty schools, by teachers who are considered "highly qualified."
The turnaround section has the most requirements—13. Several deal with charter schools, including the number of charters states have operating and the number and identity of charters that have closed in the last five years.
Building on the emphasis on high school reform in the Obama administration's education agenda, the department wants to know from states seeking state stabilization dollars just how many secondary schools are eligible for—but don't get—Title I money and have persistently low student achievement.
The department is also seeking information related to high school outcomes, including the number and percentage of graduates who enroll in an institution of higher education within 16 months of receiving their diploma.

|Orioles reinstate third baseman Mora from 15-day DL
|Written by Admin
|Sunday, 05 August 2007 06:47
Mora had been out since July 13 with a mid-foot sprain. He went 2-for-7 in two minor league rehab games with the Gulf Coast League Orioles.
``Mora would not have been activated today if he did not assure all of us that he's 100 percent,'' Baltimore manager Dave Trembley said.
Mora was hitting .265 with 12 homers and 41 RBIs in 79 games when he was injured.
Hernandez hit .333 with four RBIs over 13 games. He was called up from Triple-A Norfolk on July 7 and made his major league-debut one day later.
