This study examines the causes and effects of low enrollment and high dropout rates at the upper secondary level in Mexico, where upper secondary completion rates are well below those of other Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries and the regional average. ... 更多显示 Through a disaggregated analysis of coverage, absorption, and dropout data in secondary education at the state level, the study categorizes states according to the stage in the educational cycle at which dropout primarily occurs. The study further examines the academic, social, and economic consequences of dropout through an analysis of employment and youth survey data. The analysis of factors associated with dropout uses self-reported factors as well as estimated probit models that use household data from national surveys and the national standardized test. The central conclusion reached is that in addition to the patterns of dropout found, multiple elements intersect with the patterns to form a complex panorama. Key findings include: i) personal, family, and household economic factors and the prevalence of social risks have a closer association with dropout earlier in the education cycle; ii) the association between dropout and the quality of education has greater intensity in states where dropout occurs primarily during upper secondary education and in those with the lowest upper secondary dropout rates; and iii) as the returns to education grow, dropout is lower; in the case of returns to higher education, the association with dropout is stronger for states that have the highest dropout during upper secondary education. This complexity merits differentiated responses, which are explored through a brief look at relevant international approaches. 更少显示

Ratings for the Second Education Development Policy Loan (DPL) Project for Morocco were as follows: outcomes were moderately satisfactory, risk to development outcome was substantial, Bank performance was moderately satisfactory, and Borrower performance was moderately satisfactory. ... 更多显示 Some lessons learned included: the DPL, particularly when it is limited to one year, is not an efficient instrument to promote institutional reforms in the education sector. Reform processes in the education sector should go through long successive phases without interruption (development, consultation, feasibility study, and a pilot before a full scale implementation) to be successful. The decentralization to the regional academy of education and training (academie regionale deducation et de formation) (AREFs) is essential for assessing the needs, locating investments, targeting social programs, motivating teaching staff, assessing quality, and more broadly achieving better sector performance. To measure quality, national learning assessments should be frequent, procedures should be standard, and results should be disseminated widely at the school level and to all stakeholders. The establishment of internal audit units in the AREFs was a useful action. Teachers' pre- service training (university education programs (filieres universitaires de leducation) (FUE) and regional centers for education and training (centres regionaux metier education et formation) (CRMEF)) should be assessed urgently to determine the corrective measures necessary to improve its quality and efficiency. 更少显示
The development objective of the Enhancing Teacher Effectiveness in Bihar Project for India is to enhance teacher effectiveness through institutional reforms and improvements in teacher management and accountability. ... 更多显示 Some of the negative impacts and mitigation measures include: (1) carrying out dissemination and awareness raising activities amongst teachers about the work of the grievance mechanisms; (2) ensuring that all necessary staffing is available with adequate skills; (3) building dissemination and awareness raising activities for environmental and social due diligence measures into the Bihar teacher education (TE) program; and (4) undertaking inclusive on-going consultations with stakeholders and developing a training program for implementers. 更少显示

As Dubai has grown over the last two decades, the demand for private education has grown with it, a reflection of the number of expatriates settling in the city and the various curricula on offer to cater to expatriates. ... 更多显示 Given the city-state's unique context (in which a majority of the population are expatriates, not Emiratis), the immediate challenge for this new public institution was to identify an appropriate approach for regulating a private education sector. It was the central tenets of this approach, dependent essentially on oversight rather than intervention, which appealed to the knowledge and human development authority (KHDA) and so the policy framework from that report was adopted, adapted, and put into place in Dubai. The KHDA has returned to the World Bank requesting a review of the governance initiatives. A World Bank team, working in close collaboration with counterparts in the KHDA, and in consultation with the wider stakeholders in question (private school owners, heads, teachers, and parents), completed the review and the findings are presented in this report. 更少显示

Jobs are critical to ending the cycle of poverty because they give people the opportunity to support themselves and their families. Policymakers focused on helping people move into the workforce often turn to vocational training and retraining programs. ... 更多显示 But do these actually improve peoples chances of finding work? Do the jobs pay enough to justify the costs of the training programs? Who provides the best courses - private firms or state organizations? Policymakers and researchers are looking for answers to these questions and more in order to understand how to create programs that work best. In Turkey, researchers from the World Bank worked with the government to evaluate the impact of the Turkish National Employment Agency's (ISKUR) vocational training program to reduce unemployment. Based on the results, the government increased courses by private providers and took steps to ensure the quality of the offerings. The government also added job search assistance, improved employment counseling, increased efforts to enroll beneficiaries of social assistance programs who are able to work, and offered incentives to those beneficiaries of social assistance who actively search for a job after the course. 更少显示

The objective of this Stepping Up Skills Project is to boost the employability and employment outcomes of Guinean youth in targeted skills programs. ... 更多显示 There are three components to the project, the first component being fund for skills and employability. The Fund will support new two to three year professional training programs adhering to international certifications and delivered through a Public Private Partnership, or PPP. It will: (a) contribute to reforms by incentivizing and supporting innovative approaches to improve skills, employability, and employment; and (b) create opportunities to design and test new training program models with a view to improving quality and relevance. The second component is the Education to Employment (E2E) program. The E2E program will provide unemployed graduates a career pathway to professional opportunities in training, internships, jobs, or self-employment through incentive-based PPP contracts. Finally, the third component is the institutional support and regulatory framework. By allocating resources directly to training institutions and introducing more spending flexibility, the competitive fund encourages a paradigm shift in institutional management and governance. 更少显示

This policy note shows how accessible childcare services can increase young women's participation rates in training, their productivity (in terms of decreased absenteeism and retention), and there may also be benefits for children's development outcomes. ... 更多显示 Increasingly, the potential for packaging childcare into economic interventions for poor vulnerable women is being considered, for example into agricultural extension services. Youth employment projects in Latin America have traditionally included childcare in the program design. Similarly, some of the AGI pilots, mainly the Economic Empowerment of Adolescent Girls and Young Women (EPAG) project in Liberia, integrated childcare into the package of services designed to increase young women's employment and earnings. Lessons learned from these pilots include how: 1) projects can do their demographic homework to make informed decisions about offering childcare; 2) to design a childcare delivery model that fits the local context; 3) to encourage the use of existing care and support systems; 4) to establish clear eligibility criteria for participants and qualifications for childcare providers; 5) to define quality assurance mechanisms and do routine monitoring; 6) childcare can be included in youth employment projects at a relatively low-cost; 7) childcare provides an opportunity to intervene and benefit children at early ages; and 8) youth employment projects working with young parents may be an entry-point for cultivating good parenting skills. 更少显示

The development objective of the Parana Multi-Sector Development Project is to modernize public sector management to improve service delivery and make access to opportunities for economic and human development more just and environmentally sustainable in the State of Paraná. ... 更多显示 Despite the positive or neutral impacts foreseen, some small-scale investments could potentially have adverse environmental impacts. Illustrative types of small-scale investments that might include some adverse effects are: (i) rehabilitation of schools; (ii) rehabilitation or maintenance of municipal feeder roads; (iii) improvements to small producers farm and off-farm infrastructure; and (iv) improvement of agriculture (and other) production technologies (e.g., product diversification and/or value-added products). Any environmental impacts are expected to be localized and preventable through responsive mitigation measures. The Project has most of its activities related to institutional strengthening of public management modernization, equipping the offices involved, and these are largely aimed at mitigating environmental impacts. On the other hand, some interventions that modify the environment such as adequacy of rural roads, implementation of community systems of water supply in rural areas, establishment of new businesses in rural areas (production, processing, processing, processing, storage, grading, marketing agricultural products) and renovation and expansion of schools and health care facilities will be subject to a routine analysis by the agencies responsible for the issue in the state, and adoption of appropriate mitigation measures. 更少显示
Ratings for the Second Phase of the Third Education Project for Gambia, The were as follows: outcomes were moderately satisfactory, the risk to development outcome was moderate, the Bank performance was moderately satisfactory, and the Borrower performance was also moderately satisfactory. ... 更多显示 Some lessons learned included: this projects introduction of a performance-based management approach, whereby every civil servant in the Ministry had a performance-based contract (i.e., service level agreement) including teachers, administrative staff, both at directorate and regional levels provided important incentives for behavioral change at all levels. Supporting and drawing on local partners (private local operators) can be useful in ensuring effective delivery and sustainability of an intervention. Under the Project, literacy activities relied on the work of local private operators for implementation wherein literacy training was provided to more than 4,839 learners. The reach (and effectiveness) of this activity was likely much greater than an externally supported activity might have been. Improving the quality of teaching and teachers performance is driven by both capacity-building and the provision of incentives. The Project contributed to an increased level of confidence and motivation among teachers as the activities supported under the Project improved their content knowledge in key subjects and, in turn, their capacity to teach. It is essential to ensure that first, teachers have the basic content knowledge to teach.. The teachers learning assessments undertaken by the project highlighted the continued need for support to improving teachers content knowledge. It was important to ensure that training covered basic knowledge needed to teach in lower basic schools before covering those areas that would be required to receive West African Senior School Certificate Examination, or WASSCE credit. 更少显示
Ratings for the Higher Education Project for Mauritania were as follows: outcomes were moderately unsatisfactory, the risk to development outcome was moderate, the Bank performance was moderately unsatisfactory, and the Borrower performance was also moderately unsatisfactory. ... 更多显示 The key lessons learned are as follows: Policy reform is a complex undertaking and this awareness should be reflected in the project design. The visibility of Bank support should not be underestimated as it can act as an important catalyst in mobilizing resources from both the Government as well as other development partners. Bank teams should ensure the establishment of a robust M&E system in order to properly document the achievements and shortcomings of a Project. The Bank should ensure that procurement processes applied during implementation enable the Project to effectively evaluate the quality and adequacy of proposals and their associated bids. The cost of an intervention may not be directly proportional to its impact. 更少显示

This school is horrible! The teachers don't know how to teach, they don't care if my child is failing, and the principle isn't doing anything about it. The kids are so rude especially to new kids! Next year i'm bringing my child to public schools, it is this bad!
WORST PRIVATE SCHOOL IN ROCKFORD! The teachers are inadequate and half of them are just friends who want to get quick cash without actually working. The students are so rude especcially to new kids. Ive been here 4 a year and juding by the community the school has been this bad for 5 years and is getting worse. There getting a sub princible to sort things out but no one is doing anything.
This school is so bad! Kids get into arguments for no reason and are so rude! The teachers are inadequate and the new principle isnt doing his job! Iqra school has been bad since 2009 and if they dont change something theyll continue to go down hill.
Iqra school is the best school to educate a muslim child in rockford area, excellent teachers, friendly principal and extra-ordinary administration.
I love the fact that students here still have recess in high school, I think every school needs recess time because it allows students to relax and take sometime off of studying
Iqra school is an amazing school filled with smart, hardworking, and talented students and devoted staff.
This school is the best school that I ever sent my children to. Really, if you prefer that your children have an Islamic education within a strong academic program, choose IQRA.

"The Office": live onstage this weekend
OK, it's not really The
Office live onstage. But if you're in Los Angeles this weekend,
you can catch the cabaret debut of Melora Hardin, otherwise
known as Jan on The Office.
And here she is as Jan.
She'll be performing at the Catalina Jazz Club tonight, tomorrow and Sunday, and
will be singing a mixture of jazz and Broadway standards, as well as some
of her own songs. (I'm particularly interested in her song titled "A
Boy and His Cat.")
Although best known for her
role on The Office, Hardin has a long career in television. She began working as
a child actress in the late '70s and accrued all the standard credits:
The Love Boat, Diff'rent Strokes, Little House on the
Prairie and, of course, an ABC Afterschool
And look how cute she was as a kid actor.
If you want to catch her this
weekend, you can get more information here or at the Catalina Jazz Club website. If you'd rather just watch
a clip of her expressing her desire for Michael on The Office, you can watch a clip here.
If you do see Melora's show, please report
back! Of course, now I'm completely
fixated on the idea of The Office: Live Onstage! In the early
'90s, I saw two productions of the The Real Live
Brady Bunch
— staged recreations of Brady Bunch
episodes. (The two I saw were the "Romeo and Juliet" and "Oh,
My Nose" episodes. Brilliant. Brilliant, I say.) So much could be
done with The Office. It boggles the mind, really.

Dream: Losing My Hair and Going Bald
This morning I awoke from a dream, the kind I haven't had in a while and a very specific kind I have never had. Ever. I dreamt all of my hair was gone, and I was bald.
My hair has been a distinguishing feature of mine since I was a child. Hair stylists naturally gravitate to my tresses and touch my hair without asking. But these guys are almost always gay, and they're more interested in my hair than me, so I never really minded them.
However, on too many occasions to recount, I have been standing or sitting, minding my own business, only to feel something strange happening to the back of my head and realize some stranger was groping and fondling my hair. From a guy at the mall when I was 12 — who wound my hair around and around his arm and said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself", to which I replied, "Oh, yes, you could have!" — to a creepo, sleazy, fat guy with one tooth at the circus who operated one of the rides, men are drawn to my hair. An artist wanted to paint me nude because of my skin tone and my hair. Because of these experiences over the years, my hair is definitely one of my sensitive spots. These creepy follicular invaders somehow had the nerve to get offended that I was offended that they were touching and stroking my hair. They would guffaw and sneer, "What do you care? It's just hair. It's dead."
Newsflash: As long as my hair is attached to my head, my hair is a part of my body and is off-limits to anyone unless I personally give permission for a person to touch my hair. Period.
People are taught that hair is dead. Sacred teachings say it is not. In the ancient culture of the tribes of Ireland, Scotland, Gaul, and other European pagan traditions, hair was very sacred. Most people never cut their hair; they let it grow their entire lives, for to cut your hair (nonchalantly) was to cut off your power. In some instances just before major battles, some warriors might cut their hair as a sign of sacrifice to the gods, for blessing in battle. They may also cut their hair while mourning.
The head was sacred to the indigenous tribes of pagan Europa. The head is where we think, see, hear, smell, taste, talk, sing, kiss — all of which are extremely important to every person. In fact, the head was so revered that warriors would take the heads of their enemies to prevent their power from transferring with the deceased to the Other Side. If you've ever seen a depiction of the great mother goddess Kali from the Sanatana Dharma teachings, you know the head is a prized possession in several cultures.
Samson, from the Judeo-Christian bible, owed his considerable strength to his hair. Some American Indian tribes have traditions that involve cutting their hair when a loved one has died. Keeping the hair long is part of many yogic traditions that go back thousands of years. The hair is thought to be like "antennae" to the surrounding environment, able to pick up on energetic vibrations, useful, informative sensations that are then transmitted to the brain. Even beards were required of scholars in academia and holy men in some religions.
So hair has always been a very conscious matter to me…. The Broadway musical included.
Note: I've never had a lucid dream, and the one dream in which I actively controlled what happened was a real doozy. Oftentimes my dreams are like films, and at an important moment, I'll get an extreme close-up, zoom-in shot to hone in on what is important.
I had already had my dreams for the night, gotten up to go to the bathroom, and gone back to bed, only to lay in bed for over an hour unable to fall asleep. Sometime after that, I dozed off and had this dream.
I was looking into a mirror that was in my bedroom closet, brushing my hair with my hands. Suddenly a clump of hair came out into my hand. I was understandably upset. My hair is one of my signature features. More hair fell out. I went to my bathroom to look in the bigger mirror, and my hair around my ears and the back of my head was gone. Suddenly, a zoom-in, close-up showed my scalp, and the hair was cut close to the skin, but it was obvious that it had been cut, i.e., with clippers.
I was instantaneously back in my bedroom looking into the mirror in my closet, and I was completely bald. But I wasn't upset. In fact, I ran my hand over my bald scalp and smiled.
Dream ended.
When I woke up, I was confused and slightly worried. Losing hair so drastically is usually a sign of severe illness such as Diabetes or thyroid dysfunction, or worse, the effects of cancer treatment such as chemo and radiation. I have dealt with my hair thinning out due to my thyroid dysfunction, but I've been able to regrow my hair now that I have my thyroid and insulin response under control thanks to a superb product. And I would never do chemo or radiation if I had cancer, so I knew that this was not a precognitive dream, showing me a scene from my future (as I sometimes dream).
Having been immersed in the ballet world growing up, I know a ballerina in rebellion will cut her hair. Remember when Rosie O'Donnell got her famous haircut and the media crucified her? I'm not G.I. Jane or Sinead O'Connor. I wouldn't look good bald. So I consulted the wonderful world of Google for some dream meanings to make sense of this dream that threatened to rock my body and cranial image.
Losing one's hair in a dream spells gloom and doom according to some interpretations (particularly the religious interpretations). But my dreams are never as concrete as many of the standard interpretations anyway, and I quickly found several interpretations that resonated with me and my current situation.
Losing power was associated with losing hair throughout the various interpretations, but they also noted that the hair that has fallen out (or been cut off) represents something you no longer need. So losing a clump of hair could be a sign of getting rid of something that no longer serves you or an end to a stressful time of your life. They also mentioned that losing hair to the point of baldness could signify a whole new chapter in your life because when you get rid of all that doesn't serve you, you are left with a blank canvas — a bald head, in this case — to start over. They note that being bald was seen as a sign of wisdom in some ancient cultures, as priests and sages would shave their heads to show they were on a path of knowledge and wisdom. The best explanation said, "You are at a stage in your life where you are confident in fully exposing yourself." Hmmmmmmm…..
One important thing was whether the hair was falling out on its own or was cut off. My zoom-in, close-up, Mr. DeMille shot clearly showed that my hair had been shorn off with clippers. In effect, I was purposely getting rid of things that no longer served me. I was purposely on a path to greater knowledge and, hopefully, greater wisdom.
I can only go by what I felt when I woke up. And with this dream, though I was a little shaken at seeing myself bald, I did not have any bad feelings upon thinking about the dream. This was one reason I didn't freak out … like I did after the time I dreamt of all my teeth falling out. Yikes!
This dream is accurate in my opinion. Since I'm still processing my Congressional run and getting my personal life and my self back on track for what I should be doing with my life, I can see how this is a good dream to have. My existence will be uncomfortable as I move forward and let go of the things (and people) that do not enrich my life or my work, but the path (to knowledge and wisdom) is most definitely a path I want to take.

OpEd: Oh, to Belly Dance Naked at Burning Man….
I have long had an interest in Burning Man, the bohemian, heathen, socialist event that happens in Nevada every year. According to the website, Burning Man is an art event at which participants "dedicate themselves to the spirit of community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance. They depart one week later, leaving no trace."
As more and more people are awakening to the evils of crony capitalism and oppressive patriarchy, events that promote such blatant rebellion in the face of the prudish establishment are becoming more accepted and, hopefully, more common.
I used to do all sorts of ethnic dancing, and I particularly loved belly dancing. It's been a while, but I'm feeling the pull to get back into my shimmies and camel walks.
There is a powerful connection to the earth and goddess energy and being Woman that happens during belly dancing, Flamenco, or plain ol' make-it-up-as-you-go-along free expression. I was raised in ballet, which I still adore, but ballet is the opposite of everything that is free and lithe and curvy about belly dancing.
By the way, belly dancing isn't just for thin women. Women who are curvy have an advantage in belly dancing in that your extra jiggles cause extra jingles of your coin-hip belt. Yes, it's called BELLY dancing for a reason!
Recently, I've been looking into what all attending Burning Man would entail, and I don't know that I can afford it this year, but I am definitely putting it on the books for next year. A friend of mine in New York told me about something that happened in the temple last year that was a beautiful, amazing testament to what happens when people come together in unity. He said after that, he will never miss another Burning Man. The entire experience was just too incredible for words.
So, now I MUST experience Burning Man. I NEED to experience this art event that is an example for all of society on how people can come together in love and harmony and respect the earth in the process. And to have the freedom from neo-Puritanical laws that shame the human body — particularly women's bodies and women's nipples, to be able to dance naked amongst like-minded bohemian heathens is too tempting to resist, to paraphrase Oscar Wilde.
I encourage every woman to loosen up and try belly dancing as a way to connect to the sensual divine within you. This isn't about being perfect. There is no judgment allowed! And who knows, maybe next year, I'll be amongst the living goddesses celebrating the beauty of the human body and the human spirit at the one and only Burning Man!

OpEd: Where Is the Body-Positive Body Image for Women in Media?
While I am a sex-positive & pro-sex movement activist, I think it's sad that the majority of the body-positive photos of women I see are in and amongst the BDSM and sexualized violence porn of Tumblr. There are many amateur sites that feature full-figured women, but the amateur photo-snaps are not of the technical quality of a professional photographer. And where are the professional photographers taking professional photos of real-sized women, using beautiful lighting and honoring the female body? The average sized woman in the United States is a 14/16. You can be a size 14 or 16 and still be healthy. Why aren't we represented in the media and culture? Do I really need to go into a rant about matriarchal cultures of the past and the ancient preference for curvy women, immortalized in goddess images like those found at Willendorf? Seriously?
Why aren't women allowed to be "heavy" or real-sized in magazines and on TV and film? Why aren't stretch marks a sign of accomplishment for giving birth rather than a source of embarrassment or shame because our skin isn't flawless anymore?
Why is a thigh-gap so sought after by teenage girls and 20-somethings? Is it because they don't know that thigh fat makes sex feel really, really good for the guy? AND for the woman?
I've seen a statistic that girls see 400 ads per day telling them how they should look. Is anyone telling teens and young women they are beautiful the way they are?
One of the best things about the amateur porn on Tumblr is the real bodies. The women have real breasts — large or small. They have thigh fat and butt fat. They look healthy and natural. Usually, the men are not overly muscled; they are athletic but not steroid- addicted, bodybuilder over-muscled. For the men and the women, their bodies look normal and natural. And the best part — the orgasms are real. Real people with real bodies having real orgasms. Who knew?!
We come in all shapes and sizes, and these shapes, sizes, skin tones, hair textures, and nose and lip shapes should be reflected in the media. Diversity is a beautiful thing. Women who are naturally skinny are beautiful, and so are those of us who are not.
Be you. Be proud. Be seen.

OpEd: British Art Installation Piece Celebrates 'The Great Wall of Vagina'
Jamie McCartney is a British artist who created an art installation piece of plaster casts called "The Great Wall of Vagina". On his website are images of the entire installation along with the motto, "Changing female body image through art".
His website explains the art piece:
The 9 metre long polyptych consists of four hundred plaster casts of vulvas, all of them unique, arranged into ten large panels. McCartney set out to make this project as broad and inclusive as possible. The age range of the women is from 18 to 76. Included are mothers and daughters, identical twins, transgendered men and women as well as a woman pre and post natal and another one pre and post labiaplasty.
One of the many reasons I love this piece is because when I directed/ produced a production of The Vagina Monologues in 2006, one of the comments repeatedly mentioned by women who auditioned was how much they hate what their vagina looks like. Of course, they were actually referring to the vulva — as does this art piece (hint: the vagina is the inside part). Only one female at the auditions, a 24 year old girl who had not yet had kids, said she loved how her vulva looked like a beautiful flower. One woman said her "vagina" was ugly because she'd had 4 kids. Frankly, I don't think most women know what our genitals are supposed to look like because our perception is skewed by porn and skin mags.
The month that I turned 40, I took pictures of my vulva and saw my vulva for the very first time ever (not counting when I was in labor and saw my daughter's head crowning in the mirror up on the wall of the delivery room — I'm nearsighted so I couldn't really see it). Turning 40, I wanted to love my body visually the way I adore my body sensually. But seeing my vulva pics, I burst into tears because she looked so different than what I envisioned. My fair-skinned legs and rosy labia were not what I'm accustomed to seeing because most of the women I've seen in erotic photos are tan. Then there was my clitoral hood and the shape of my inner labia…. I thought, "WHY would a man like this?! I look so different…."
I deleted the pics immediately. But I took some more pictures the next day, and this time I didn't cry. I guess I was getting accustomed to seeing what I look like. I sent the pics to 3 guy friends I could trust to tell me the truth, and each one said my vulva was beautiful. I was really annoyed with myself that I felt I needed that kind of validation, especially from men, but men know vulvas, and they know what men like in a juicy yoni. And frankly, if I'd sent my pics to other women, would the women have been grossed out because they likewise have little clue what "vaginas" are supposed to look like?
As I continued to look at my vulva pictures (and even took some more), it was amazingly empowering to know and love my genitals and not compare mine to women in porn or magazines. Aside from the genital grooming that is prolific in erotic photography, many people don't realize that porn performers often have cosmetic surgery to alter their genitals, including labioplasty to make the labia smaller or conform to some ridiculous notion of what labia are "supposed" to look like.
This brings me to my point and yet another aspect of healing women's body image. There is NO one way a vulva is supposed to look. Every vulva is different. Comparing vulvas is like comparing snowflakes — each one is unique and beautiful in her own way.
I think McCartney's work is very important for a few reasons. One, he cast all sorts of women when making his plaster art, and you see all sorts of labia shapes and sizes (and piercings!) represented. Also, because the work is in plaster as opposed to photography or paint, race is not an issue, and all the vulvas can be appreciated without an ingrained idea that "white chick" vulvas are more pleasing to the eye.
Check out McCartney's website to see the many other panels in this art installation.

Twitter Happier: Scientists Track Tweets to Trace National Moods
The study, which restricted its scope to U.S. users only, confirmed the obvious by concluding that tweeters on the West Coast tended to be "happier" than those on the East. The report also claims that American Twitter users, overall, tend to be happiest on Sunday, and saddest on Thursday evenings. "The visualizations are amazing and I think it is absolutely fascinating to see the nation's mood vary in near-real time," says Johan Bollen of Indiana University.
Mislove, meanwhile, admits that his team's system of mood evaluation had its flaws. If someone tweets, "I am not happy," for example, the team's system would count it as a positive tweet, simply because of the word "happy." He still says, though, that the map revealed intriguing demographic trends, and exposed interesting commonalities between users in disparate parts of the country. Both East and West Coast users, for example, tended to follow the same mood patterns throughout a given day.
It may seem like a primitive study, but it's still a fascinating approach to measuring the temperament of an entire country. His method may not be perfect, but, considering how large Mislove's sample was, it seems like it would be a reasonably effective metric. What excites scientists most about Twitter is the fact that its data is dynamic and changing by the second. Twitter is an inherently ephemeral medium, and its form encourages users to approach the Internet with goldfish memories. Yet, every now and then, it's fun to take a step back from the short term, and examine Twitter through an entirely different, more global lens. [From: Pulse of the Nation, via: NewScientist]

Makes: 1 loaf (about 10 servings)
½ package premium or organic tofu (soft), drained
½ can pumpkin
½ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup water
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup wheat flour
1 cup all purpose flour
3 tsp. baking soda
¾ tsp. salt
3 tsp. pumpkin spice
Dash ginger
1. In a blender, combine pumpkin and tofu. Puree until smooth and transfer to a large bowl.
2. Add sugar, vegetable oil, water, and vanilla to tofu mixture
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, and pumpkin spice.
4. Combine dry and wet ingredients. Mix thoroughly and pour into loaf pan.

Recommend Lou's original idea
I had my Staton gearbox converted to tri-hybrid for ~$40, including shipping. Dave drilled the hole for me and I just had to wrench it together. My intermediate shaft turns at 1100-1600 r/m, perfect for motor/gen PTO.
Just to update, my motor/gen was apparently bad. Four volts are useless, no matter the current. The new one (~$30 delivered) puts out the good volts. And the controller also worked. It blinks like it should when hooked up to the battery, while being charged from my motor/gen. The weather got cold so I could not test the whole system (motor/gen, controller, battery, and Nuvinci auto shifter as electric load) while riding, but I'm guessing it's ok. I'm also guessing there's enough extra power for a 12v light in front. I'll hang the bike off and check it out with the hyperterminal from my wife's netbook and my Radioshack voltmeter first.
We need to fully appreciate the practicality of Lou's thinking. This is a system that is affordable, balanced, and available to anyone using a Staton gearbox. I could have Mickey Moused around for months otherwise. There are lots of builds that could easily be retrofitted. I did it, so believe me, you could too!
Best to all;

Charging system, lesson learned
I have recently used up 2 of these little motors, as generators.
They work well for a few hours, giving me plenty of power to shift my Nuvinci 171 CVP with the auto shift from the Developer's Kit. But then, voltage drops away. I took apart my first one, and it seems that my brushes wore down. Suppose I could replace them, but I don't want that much frequent maintenance. I am still thanking Loquin because he got me pointed in the right direction, and only pointed out this product without touting it.
Here is the advice from the folks I'm going to try now, along with the product..
I hope it works. I will have to get a belt and mount to fit, but that's achievable. Also a bridge circuit, but that's cheap from Radio Shack. Any advice/user experience would be appreciated.

re the surplus center motors: what sort of voltage regulator circuitry did you use, b.o.b ?
That motor is 1/25th HP, and at 28 volts, you can only pull apx. 1 amp from it. If you are over-drawing on the current, this would cause the brushes to wear down very quickly.
Ideally, you would want to use a switching-type regulator, as this is the most efficient means of getting your battery charged (you don't waste a lot of the available power in heating up a resistor.) Nor do you want to just feed the voltage directly to the battery, as the high voltage difference between battery (14.4) and generator (28) will pull excess current from the generator to drag down the voltage.
motorscooter type regulators are going to pull down the voltage on the generator as well; they are designed to work with a 12V alternator/generator that has beefier wiring (and brushes, if it's a generator) that'll support 60-100 watts of power at that voltage.Lou

My voltage regulator
Hello Loquin;
Here's what I ended up with. If I screwed up the attachment I will see when I post and reattach.
I tried the smaller one you pointed me to, but two of them failed. My currently installed regulator seems to be working ok. I don't know my charging amperage, but I had enough amperage to both charge the tiny motorcycle battery to a charging voltage of ~14.5 volts, and send ~2.5 amps at over 12 volts to my transmission shift control. I know that amperage because I can measure it on my wife's netbook using hyperterminal. That amperage might be higher when running (not just hung off stationery) because I am shifting under load. I charge up even while running, and with using the battery for downshifting to a stop (the mid drive gearbox PTO is stopped then). The voltage regulator was never hot, and seems to be well below it's rating, so if I had an overloading problem I think it would have been from the motor/gen. FYI, I took it apart and saw no burning of varnish or anything like that. Just worn brushes.

Saturday September 5, 2009
B.W. Webb had three interceptions and William & Mary shutdown Virginia's new spread offense in a 26-14 win on Saturday.
The Tribe forced seven turnovers and Webb returned his last
interception for a 50-yard touchdown with 2:39 left in the fourth
quarter. The Cavaliers used all three of their quarterbacks, trying to get something going, but none were affective.
The best quarterback on the field, it seemed, was R.J. Archer. The redshirt senior who grew up near Charlottesville and was a regular in the stands at Scott Stadium threw for 184 yards and made only one mistake - a fourth-quarter interception that Virginia did not capitalize on.
The loss was Virginia's first to a Football Championship Subdivision school since 1986, when it lost 41-37 to the Tribe. William & Mary last beat an I-A school in 1998 (Temple).

Puyallup, WA
Puyallup—meaning "the generous people"—is a historic community of just under 40,000 people nestled in a verdant valley that provides breath-taking views of Mount Rainier from almost everyone's front doorstep. In Puyallup, being able to enjoy the perks of the open spaces does not mean compromising access to metropolitan areas. Puyallup residents can easily travel to Washington's major cities because it is located just 35 miles south of Seattle and 20 miles north of the State's capital, Olympia.

Puyallup is home to Washington's State Fair. The city prides itself on this event, attracting over a million people a year to Puyallup. The Fairgrounds serve as a geographic cornerstone for the entire city, and are used to host numerous events throughout the year; however, none compare to The Puyallup Fair! The Fair is one of the top-ten largest fairs in the entire country, and it runs for nearly three weeks every September. The festivities involve the entire city, garnering contributions from local businesses, restaurants, and residents.

Founded in 1930, the Karshner Museum is a natural history museum located in the heart of Puyallup. The Karshner Museum is made especially distinct because it is one of the only museums in the country that is owned by a school district. The Museum plays an active role in the lives of Puyallup's 20,000+ students and their families, imbuing visitors with hands-on, curriculum-based experiences that focus on learning more about history, culture, and art. The collection includes over 10,000 artifacts, and has recently expanded to include exhibits from the South Pacific Islands as well as a glass sculpture done by Dale Chihuly.

BEIJING--China's Ministry of Public Security said Monday that GlaxoSmithKline PLC (GSK) executives have apologized to Chinese officials after authorities alleged the British drug maker was involved in widespread bribery in the market.
Abbas Hussain, the London-based president of emerging markets and Asia Pacific, apologized on behalf of Glaxo, saying that the company supports China's action against corruption and will fully cooperate with authorities in an ongoing investigation, the ministry said in a statement on the main government website.
The statement, which didn't disclose details of when Mr. Hussain offered the apology, said Glaxo has an obligation to abide by Chinese law.
Glaxo didn't immediately respond to requests for comment.
Glaxo sent three top executives to China late last week to meet with authorities in attempt to manage a high-profile bribery investigation that has left the company's China-based leadership in disarray, according to person close to the matter.
China has accused Glaxo of using travel agencies as vehicles to bribe government officials, hospitals and doctors in order to sell more drugs at higher prices. The investigation, which publicly kicked off in late June, has caused upheaval among Glaxo's senior management in China.
The company's finance chief in China, British national Steve Nechelput, has been barred from leaving the country, Glaxo said last week. Authorities also have detained four of Glaxo's high-level Chinese executives over allegations that they "severely violated" Chinese law.

Charles Arlinghaus: Gov. Hassan has to cut spending right now
The state budget law allows the governor to issue an executive order with the approval of the legislative Fiscal Committee in the event of a revenue shortfall and likely deficit. Doing this is not unusual. Every governor in the last 30 years has been required to do it.
New Hampshire's two-year budget will end in deficit if no action is taken. While revenue is coming in ahead of budget in general, there is a problem with the Medicaid Enhancement Tax (MET). The MET will likely end the year $36 million behind schedule. After accounting for a 2012 surplus, revenue ahead of projection in other categories, some spending savings, other savings that didn't materialize, etc., the problem is a little smaller, but the state still faces a $25 million deficit.
The MET was inaugurated as a sort of pass-through, pretend tax to dragoon more Medicaid money out of Washington. Hospitals paid the tax, the feds matched it as Medicaid spending, and hospitals received all of it back the same day as a grant that just happened to match what they paid.
Some changes were made because of Medicaid rules, but then in the last budget the pretend tax was turned into a real tax. Hospitals didn't get the money back. This created an incentive for them to actually care about how much they paid and to structure their finances - in the same manner as any other taxpayer might do - to minimize their liability and conduct business in a way to help their bottom line not the state's bottom line.
This is perfectly rational and predictable behavior. But it left the state with less revenue.
Fortunately, state law provides a solution. The governor can and should immediately issue an executive order curtailing $25 million worth of spending (about 2 percent of the annual general fund budget). Making adjustments to spending in the final six months of the two-year budget cycle is something every governor has to do. If she does not, then by state law those cuts must be part of the budget she proposes on Feb. 15.
Whatever she chooses, we have long known that the Medicaid enhancement revenues were unreliable. When Gov. Craig Benson vetoed the budget 10 years ago, one complaint in his veto message was that the state needed to reduce reliance on the MET for stability. Many people who disagreed with the veto itself agreed with his warning.
The state budget has problems when revenues are unreliable or vary a great deal. The MET is a problem especially now that hospitals can and should treat it as a normal tax. In addition, the federal government, which keeps threatening to repeal the loophole that allows it, is under great financial pressure.
Ideally, that revenue should be used not for general operating expenses, but for one-time, non-recurring expenses. The state should wean itself, or at least its general operating expense budget, off the MET over the next four years.
It also should serve as a warning for other revenue enhancements being considered. One-time or otherwise unreliable revenue sources should not be spent on annual expenses like salaries or ongoing programs.
Lawsuit settlements are a good example. If the state settles a lawsuit for tens of millions of dollars, that money cannot in good fiscal conscience be devoted to expenses that continue indefinitely. Fix a bridge or pave a road, perhaps, but don't use it to hire a permanent employee you can't afford when the windfall runs out.
We had a huge deficit, and therefore budget crisis, two years ago because we borrowed to spend or spent money we hoped to get but didn't. (In 2010, we budgeted and spent $60 million from "sale of state assets." Three years later, we're still at zero in that account.) We have a smaller problem now because of an unreliable revenue source. Let's avoid both mistakes.

Over the past decade, Mystikal has had a surprisingly long and fruitful career for a rapper best known for maniacally catchy novelty hits like "Shake Ya Ass" and "Danger." Part of the appeal, of course, lies in his distinctive voice, a wild and loud bark that sounds like someone yelling in a club at the top of his lungs. But he's also a keen lyricist who delivers lines with vivid imagery. "You see them fuckin' lights/You hear that fuckin' crowd?/ Start that goddamn show, I'm comin' through," he shouts on fellow Atlanta rapper Ludacris's "Move Bitch." Okay, so Mystikal's no Shakespeare, but he definitely has a raw, uninhibited energy that's representative of Southern rap, a raucousness that should be on ample display when he performs at the Beat (WMIB-FM) 103.5's "Official Spring Break Jam."

About Roger Ritter
We have been avid Disney fans our whole lives and wanted a place where we could relax after a day at the parks.
Roger Ritter purchased this house in 2012
Why Roger Ritter chose Indian Ridge
After touring many properties, we found this gem. We purchased this home from the original owners, a nice retired couple from Scotland that used it to go on holiday. The home was well cared for with many upgraded features, so it gave a 'home' feel rather than a typical rental.
What makes this house unique
We like peace and quiet and privacy. This home sits on an over-sized lot with no rear neighbors, walking paths, or other public distractions.
Guestbook comments from the manager
Hi! Our stay was beyond words. Everything surpassed our expectations. Thank you!!

Who's That Girl Lyrics - Madonna
Review The Song (4)
Who's that girl, who's that girl
When you see her, say a prayer and kiss your heart goodbye
She's trouble, in a word get closer to the fire
Run faster, her laughter burns you up inside
You're spinning round and round
You can't get up, you try but you can't
Quien es esa nina, who's that girl
Senorita, mas fina, who's that girl
Quien es esa nina, who's that girl
Senorita, mas fina, who's that girl
You try to avoid her, fate is in your hands
She's smiling, an invitation to the dance
Her heart is on the street, tu corazon es suyo
Now you're falling at her feet
You try to get away but you can't
Light up my life, so blind I can't see
Light up my life, no one can help me now
Run faster, her laughter burns you up inside
He's spinning round and round
You can't get up, you try but you can't
Who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
Now, who's that girl

While shooting for the film, then called Slammer, Madonna had requested Patrick Leonard to develop an uptempo song that captured the nature of her film persona. She later added the lyrics and vocals to the demo tape developed by Leonard, and decided to call both the song and the movie "Who's That Girl".
Wiki is pretty handy sometimes...
Matt Loc | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/17/11
I love this song, not only because it has a quality flavor of sound to me, but also because it is really relatable to a situation I was going through back in March. Sarita if you are by any chance seeing my post, you know I am talking about you. You are "delicious poison" and this song proves it!
credibility | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/17/10
how much credit does Madonna get for creating this song? Is this song really by her? Where is the source you got the lyrics from? I would be happier if you place the source at the end. I wouldn't be surprised to see how many other people want the same info as I!
