The drumbeat is growing louder for a new bus-rapid transit line with dedicated lanes across Nashville known as The Amp. Meanwhile a small handful of skeptics are starting to take their concerns online.
A well-funded group of Amp backers put out a list last week of dozens of community and business leaders cheering for the project. Contributors to the Transit Alliance of Middle Tennessee include big companies like Bridgestone and Regions, as well as engineering and law firms, and universities.
And there's a big one: Vanderbilt. The Amp would go right past its campus. Vandy is committing more than half a million dollars to the Transit Alliance through 2015, says Beth Fortune, Vice Chancellor for Public Affairs:
"We have long been supportive of mass transit, and see the need for it because of faculty recruitment, because of safety, because of convenience and accessibility, and because of the environment."
But a campaign against the project may be on the horizon, with neighbors and businesses worried dedicating lanes down West End Avenue will actually worsen traffic. Under the banner Stop BRT, Save West End, opponents have started a group on Facebook.

Will I experience side effects from my treatment?
Experiences with treatments will also vary from person to person. Most people will experience some of the common treatment side effects, while others may experience rare side effects or not have any side effects at all. While most side effects can be managed without having to stop therapy, certain ones can be life threatening.
How will I feel during treatment?
Gleevec—Side effects include nausea, acid reflux, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle cramps, skin rashes, and bone and joint pain. Some people may have weight gain and swelling, particularly around the eyes, hands and feet.
Chemotherapy—Side effects vary with the type of chemotherapy and may include mouth and throat sores, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, hair loss, bruising, infection, fatigue and shortness of breath. Some chemotherapy drugs can cause a loss of libido and/or fertility.
Interferon—Side effects may include flu-like symptoms such as fever, fatigue, muscle aches and headache, as well as numbness, GI disturbances, mood disturbances and skin reactions.
High-dose chemotherapy followed by stem cell transplantation —High dose chemotherapy can destroy healthy blood cells as well as leukemia cells in the marrow and therefore can result in infections (due to low white cell counts), anemia (due to low red cell counts) and bleeding (due to low platlet counts). Stem cells from a donor can result in graft-versus-host disease, which is an immune reaction to the donor's cells.
Hydroxyurea—Side effects may include skin rashes, stool changes and urinary symptoms. People taking the medication long term are at higher risk for skin cancer.

The Royal Mint has announced its 2015 bullion proposition following a year that has seen some notable additions to the organisation's offering,
1 reviews
No Longer Available
Few coins in the Royal Mint showcase carry such charisma as a Britannia gold coin. Excellently struck and strictly limited, this fabulous £25 Britannia coin contains a quarter-ounce of pure gold to make a coin that will be treasured forever.
Boasting the new, very patriotic portrait of Britannia by David Mach RA and minted in 22 carat yellow gold to impeccable Proof quality, the coin comes in a handsome presentation case complete with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity guaranteeing its provenance, gold content and stringent minting limits.
Please note: this coin is subject to a maximum coin mintage of 5,200.
'How to work with Britannia and make her a contemporary image and not just appear nationalistic?' was the challenge David Mach set himself when asked to create a new portrait of Britannia for 2011 coins. It was a question answered brilliantly for, marrying Britannia's long history with modern values, he has created a Britannia that reaches into the very heart of British consciousness, a symbol of enduring patriotism, seated among the billowing folds of the Union Flag.

By Korak,
The product is good but the online order status page on this website is very poor. It was never made clear when the product was posted. At the time of writing, it still shows my order is under process when it has been delivered. Very very misleading.Royal Mint response: Thank you for your feedback Korak - the Britannia is a very beautiful coin. We are currently experiencing an issue with our order tracking facility which we hope to resolve over the next couple of days. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Most online poker clients offer a fully downloadable version of their software. However, what if you are in a situation where it is not feasible for you to download an online poker client? Perhaps you are a person that does not own a computer and has to rely on library or internet cafe computers. Maybe you want to play poker in a college lab where downloading is not allowed. Whatever your case may be, you need an online poker no download option. Let's take a look at several options that may be suitable for you.
Bwin.com offers an instant play option for their website that is accessible by any computer with a web browser and java installed. This online poker no download option is also accessible to those with mac and even Linux operating systems. Just signup for an account on Bwin.com and then go to the website to access their instant play feature. The software will open in a separate screen and give you options to most of the games that are available to regular download clients. Bwin has excellent traffic and support ranging from email to live phone support. Speed of game play is fantastic and multi-tabling is allowed on the site.
A site that has come a long way in its online poker no download offering is PartyPoker.com. In the past, PartyPoker only offered a simplistic version of this client that allowed you to play only Holdem, and only one table with very limited options for table selection. Fortunately, PartyPoker upgraded their instant play site to make it look and respond exactly like its download client, even down to the sounds. When you load the software, all of the typical options are there for games and multi-tabling is now permitted. Be certain that you have java installed and popups enabled, or you will not be able to access this site.
For US players, Absolute Poker offers an online poker no download option very similar to that of PartyPoker.com. As part of the Cereus network, Absolute Poker offers a spread of games that is understandably Holdem heavy. While Omaha and Stud are offered, the popularity of the games do not come close to that of other sites. The site loads and responds similar to the typical download client and game speed does not suffer.
Titan Poker offers a flash based client for those wanting to play online poker no download. Windows and Mac are both compatible with the site as long as you have Firefox. Safari is not supported by Titan so you must have Firefox on the mac. Although not a problem for most, the only game option on Titan Poker is NL Holdem. If you play anything else, you are out of luck. However, for the NL junkies, which encompasses most of the poker world, this is a solid option. Multi-tabling is allowed, but with a cap at four tables max.
Another option for Holdem only players is PaddyPoker.com. This site offers a flash online poker no download option that focuses primarily on Holdem. However, unlike Titan Poker, PaddyPoker offers all variants of Holdem. So if you play Fixed or Pot-Limit, this site deserves a look at. If you are a beginner, you have an option to play at beginner tables. At these tables, players have been here 30 days or less.
Pacific Poker offers another online poker no download option for those not overly concerned about multi-tabling. Multi-tabling is offered at this site but with a four table max. All the typical variants are offered including Holdem, Omaha, and Stud. Traffic is pretty solid with a user base of over 23 Million registered users.
If you haven't noticed, when looking for an online poker no download option, you will typically run into three requirements. First, you must have popups enabled in order to allow for other tables to open. Next, you must have java or flash installed depending on your website. For those worried about downloading software onto your computer, java and flash are both relatively standard software programs and most websites and web based applications will require one or the other. Most college pc's will already have this installed on them. If you find that it is not installed, you can always inquire about installing one or the other. You may want to tell them a legitimate or school related reason for the download. Lastly, you will want to have an email account that is accessible from the web, especially if you are using a computer that does not belong to you. This will become necessary in order to complete singup.
An online poker no download option is great for those unable or unwilling to download a full online poker client onto their computer. Most will allow you functionality comparable to their standard downloadable client. Our best suggestion is to test out several and see which one works best for you. It only takes a couple of minutes to register for an account and load the poker client. Good luck to you at the tables.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. government is stepping up efforts to help Central American farmers fight a devastating coffee disease — and hold down the price of your morning cup.
A fungus called coffee rust has caused more than $1 billion in damage across Latin American. The fungus is especially deadly to Arabica coffee — that's the bean that makes up most high-end, specialty coffees.
It's already affecting the price of some of those coffees in the United States.
The U.S. Agency for International Development is concerned about the economic security of small coffee farms abroad.
On Monday, agency head Raj Shah plans to announce a $5 million partnership with Texas A&M University's World Coffee Research center to try to eliminate the fungus.

Marissa Webb: No Sleep 'Till NYFW? No Problem
Sure, Marissa Webb may be lacking in the sleep department, but missing out on a few zzz's was completely worth ither first runway show (third collection) was a hit. The former J.Crew designer incorporated a mix of contrasting elements, both masculine and feminine, all with an underlying rock 'n' roll edge. Our favorite insider tid-bit: The bright blue and red hued pieces from her line were a nod to her secret love for super hero action movies.
We snagged Webb backstage for a quick chat about said lack of sleep (not that you would be able to tell by her pre-show giddiness), love of personal style, and more.
So how much sleep did you get last night?
Do you want the honest answer? Three hours.

Well on Tuesday night I started having contractions/back pain. Wednesday we went to the OB/GYN only a centimeter dilated but 85% effaced. Went home to rest and wait for more progress to happen. About 1:30pm my contractions were 2 1/2 minutes apart.. Went to the hospital- was admitted and they broke my water- labor wasn't to bad, I did however have really bad back pain because my little angel was face up. But a 7:51am on Thursday we welcomed our baby girl into the world.

Airbus reveals 'smart bag' prototype, tells you where your luggage is headed, if it's been opened, and more
Posted By Briley Kenney On June 10, 2013 @ 3:28 AM In General Tech | 2 Comments
A common problem that occurs when traveling with luggage is that airline employees can easily misplace said belongings. All it takes is for the bag of personal items to make a wrong turn on the travel belt and it ends up heading to another country on a whole different plane. Therefore, it's even more stressful to travel, because you have to worry about your luggage making it to the same location as you.
Airbus aims to eliminate some of that stress with their new smart bag and companion iPhone app. Thanks to an integrated RFID chip inside the bag, the system is capable of doing a lot more than just tracking your precious belongings. According to a promo video for the smart bag setup, it would keep track of a list of restricted items and even determine the total weight of the bag. When you're finally ready to set off, you can scan a QR code to synchronize the mobile app with the device- thus sealing it up for the journey.
As soon as you check your bag, the app will keep track of its progress and inform you of things like its location, and whether or not it has been opened. The system can even alert you when you're allowed to use electronics on your trip (the FAA has strict rules now, don't ya' know).
Ultimately, it helps reduce the stress during travel in regards to luggage. Well, most of it anyway, I'm sure some people will stress over other things. Although, there's no mention about what to do if the situation turns sour. For example, what if you're sitting on a plane waiting to taxi off to Hawaii for a nice vacation and the tracker shows your luggage headed in the opposite direction to London? Even worse, what if it tells you that your bag is being opened, there's not all that much you can do about it in the moment is there?
Still, those are issues that would need to be addressed in some way or another in the future, and right now it sounds like the whole system is still in a prototype stage. Rightfully called the Bag2Go system, it was developed in partnership with T-Mobile and Rimowa (German luggage company).
Airbus's Chief Innovation Officer, Yann Barbaux apparently told Australian Business Traveller that the bag will only cost about 20 percent more than traditional luggage. How about them apples?
Can I just say though, that thing is one bulky looking piece of luggage and from the screenshots it looks pretty ugly? Of course, aesthetics matter little when it comes to practicality and usefulness, but still- the Bag2Go could really use a makeover.

Crestwood Suites UCF Hotel, Orlando
Reviews - Crestwood Suites UCF Hotel
- Age Group: 31 - 40
- From: United States
- Traveller type: Budget Traveller
You're guaranteed a weekly cleaning of the room...see if you get it.
And there was a particular concierge - nastiest little 'fellow' you'd never want to meet - incapable of customer service, but very capable of instructing paying customers in how to "address" him.
This place will sour your trip completely...unless you happen to win the lottery.
- Age Group: 31 - 40

- Traveller type: Young & Single
When you check in, they show you these beautiful, clean model rooms. What you get is a stained and funky-smelling carpet. They're supposed to clean the room once a week, but in my 3 week stay that never happened. I had to clean my own sheets and towels. Management is a joke - they haven't a clue about scheduling or running a hotel..."always friendly, always clean" - a total lie.
A few of the staff try to do their job, but many have serious attitude problems and have business at all working with the public. Case in point - R. Morris. This boy has no business dealing in customer service because he doesn't grasp the concept. He was extremely arrogant, rude and condescending - a complete and total ass.
Look a bit more...I wouldn't wish this place on my worst enemy.

Top Local Tips for Orlando
hotel laundry As any seasoned business traveler knows, hotel laundry service is expensive. That leaves travelers with the options of either 1) hand washing in the sink and hanging items up to dry on hangers 2) loading up all your laundry in said rental car and going to a laundry mat or 3) hoping that your hotel has a laundry machine and drying tumbler on property. Out of all these options in Orlando in particular, you are better off with option 3 as in doing your laundry on site in the hotel guest washeteria. Orlando hotels usually have washing machines and tumble dryers that range from 75 cents to 2 dollars. That is per load, per wash and dry. Public laundry mats in Orlando are usually expensive and not comfortable ( i.e. crowded and humid). Hand washing and drip drying in hotels is good in europe, but for the love of pete, don't hang your hangers on sprinkler heads. That can cause lots of trouble.
great attractions Great amusement parks. Those seem to be really the only things Orlando has.
Blue Martini Go dancing it was AMAZING!

Published by Beth Mader at 12:08 AM under Anger | Anxiety | Bipolar Disorder | For Loved Ones | Recovery | Relationships | Self-Esteem | Stress
Successes, big and small, measurable, and less so, for folks with bipolar, can be compared to the ongoing laying of pavement in the road to recovery. We achieve a thing, we can move forward. Lately, I've a string of successes. I should be cruising right along. Then why am I suddenly panicked, depressed and energetically irritable?
A couple of weeks ago, I started yoga again since stopping about eight months ago when I had the flu. Taking new, high-quality vitamins and eating well over the last month has me feeling good physically. I am finally sleeping right. Last week, an article I wrote was published on another website. And, I am working to complete my first art commission in four years. So why did I verbally attack my husband and slap the plastic microwave food-cover on the counter, smashing it to bits (yes, I did this—I needed to hear the smacking sound)?
These good things were going on but I was feeling down, and I resented it! What the heck? I didn't understand why I was depressed all of a sudden when I should be feeling happy about the changes happening! I acted out because I was confused. Then an epiphany: my mood switched from feeling buoyed by my triumphs to worry and fear about the potential results of my accomplishments.
Here's how it worked in my brain: "Super, Beth. You are making it down your road. You have and are continuing to achieve some of your goals! You rock! But. Wait. What if you do … achieve them? Then you have to keep doing it. You have to keep it up. Oh. What about that. What about THAT. What if you can't? What if you can't keep doing it? What if you fail? Oh boy, this is scary! Beth, you are scared. It may just be time to panic."
Instead of giving into my brain's attempts at sabotage, I decided instead to appreciate a few new things:
1. It's OK to be scared. I must continue building the road via achievements anyway.2. I must trust my feelings and listen to the warnings of my self-talk before acting out! 3. I must continue to take responsibility for my behavior. I apologized to my husband and to myself (the new microwave cover is on its way).
We learn as we go. This, too, must be considered success.
Is success a challenge for you and your moods?

PREFACE to BIPOLAR BUFFALO- A Mosaic of Minds Journey
Until mid-life I struggled with bipolar disorder—historically known as "manic-depression," the more vivid and original name. This condition is characterized by intense energy swings. Shifts can range from mania, excessive and high mind-body enthusiasm and possibly unmanageable energy levels (uncontrolled "aliveness" as I call it), to depression, a decrease or loss of mind-body activity with feelings of inadequacy and sadness (uncontrolled "deadness," in its extreme).
My bipolar struggles are mostly behind me. These days, I help maintain equilibrium by balancing my physical and mental selves in accordance with the seasons. During warm Buffalo summers, my body comes alive and my mind slumbers. In winter, I feel the opposite happen. With these seasonal changes, I adjust the seesaw fulcrum of my mind-body condition to account for the imbalance I feel.
I write to stimulate my mind during Western New York winters.
I write because after laboring without confidence on the early stories of this manuscript, I sensed that I had something worthy to say about my life, about its beauty, its humor, and its shortcomings.
I write because finding a purpose to life is a journey common to everyone—for me it involves the search for one's true self and an authentic meaning to life.
I write for the underdog. That is the central theme of Bipolar Buffalo—it is a story of an underdog and in this way, it is universal. Yet it is my own personal story. It contains the reality of growing up working-class, Catholic, of Polish ancestry, and open to widespread dumb Pollock jokes during the mid-century. And it contains the realities of coming from the steel making city of Lackawanna, possibly the least desirable area in the Buffalo region, that larger city itself the object of derision on a national level. Add to all of that the bipolar affliction of mental breakdowns, and you will find ample underdog baggage to shoulder on your reading journey.
During the mental breakdowns described in the book, I morph into another brotherhood of underdog—in Buffalo, I become the manic outburst of a Jewish comic (Lenny Bruce) and in New Orleans, I become the punching frenzy of a Black heavyweight fighter (Muhammad Ali). The book's title traces back to shooting a game of pool out West with Native Americans, a primary underdog.
Yet, I am an underdog only because my mind paints me that way. The bipolar division between this outer reality and my own inner perception becomes part of my life's struggle.
I write because I regret not knowing more about the lives of my parents, grandparents and extended family members before they died. Although my relatives were an intelligent lot, they did not express themselves very much, not in spoken or written language. In social situations, they listened and observed. Looking back, I see many blank spaces in my family history that will never be filled. Who were these people in those faded black and white photographs? What were their young lives like? What were their journeys? What were their hopes, fears, disappointments and joys? Their stories, most likely vivid and gratifying, remain untold.
I write as a surrogate for them and for the common laborers of my hometown. To walk in the forgotten and vanished places of Lackawanna, New York and the greater Buffalo vicinity is to remember the unsung working people who lived there—and then disappeared forever.
I write to unleash the atoms of creativity energized inside me when young but locked by a lack of courage as I aged.
I write for the beauty of the printed word, hopefully creating a deserving work of literature.
I write to express a flicker of the emotion, humor, and hope I felt as a self-doubting, second-generation, working class child, growing up bipolar, Polish and Catholic in the Buffalo region during the mid-twentieth century.
There are countless universes, and within each, billions of galaxies. There are many more suns than specks of stardust. I am aware of my own insignificance. And yet I want a tiny spark of me to survive—to leave behind a shred of tangible evidence that I once lived here. This drives me. Leaving behind an account of this journey, for my children, grandchildren, and others who share the conditions and circumstances of my life, makes my task worthy.
The outcome is here: a mosaic of diverse pieces of mind—self-contained stories that overlap time with place, and come together to form a fragile wholeness to this singular existence.
A seed sown so long ago finally breaks out from the underground!
Response by Joanne Shortell on 8/5/2013 6:16:25 AM
YES! Great piece. The fear of success is a tremendous roadblock in the process of recovering one's ability to live a good life. While pharmacological treatment of my bipolar disorder was a complete failure, I've worked my process of recovery to the point where I have such a wonderful life my friends and family are jealous (for details see my Life Unlimited essay published by DBSA last fall, about 6 stories from the top at www.dbsalliance.org/.../PageServer
Fear of success and fear that one will be held to a standard beyond one's long-term ability are perhaps the biggest roadblocks to creating a new, healthier life. I used an 8-step process to create my new life (maevetour.blogspot.com/.../...eight-steps-to.html) and the first step addresses the need to repeatedly failure and mistakes:
1. Forgive yourself for often failing or underachieving at everything in this list
It's absolutely critical to recovery that one expect to have setbacks,

Response by Nicole Bergstrom on 8/5/2013 7:42:17 AM
I've never really considered success through that lens, even though I self sabotage myself all of the time. I do the same thing with relatio ships.
"Wow, this is an interesting person. I could really get along with them. Man this is great, we have a lot in common. Oh, I want to be just like them. They are perfect! Wait, I'm not perfect. What if they see through my efforts to be like them. What if they think I'm a fake? Oh no, I'm a fake. Who am I? I don't deserve them. They do t like me. I will never have friends. I'm worthless. I'm a failure"
Be real, be honest, be BRAVE!
Response by Clear Panic Away on 8/5/2013 8:05:33 AM
I often feel like this. I'll have swings where one week I'm on top of the world, and the next week, for no reason, I'm down in the dumps. If things are going well, there's something at the back of my mind saying "Just wait ..." - it's sometimes a struggle, but these moody feelings have to be recognized and brought out in the open.

I think that we all have to realise that it is ok to be scared.
The fear of failure is often spoken about but the fear of success is just as big an issue. As you say, if you are rocking it today and achieving your goals what are you going to do once you have reached them?
There is nothing worse in life than to achieve ones every last goal, that's why we need to keep stretching ourselves and finding new goals to shoot for.

Title: Blast Off!
Date: Oct 27, 2010
This costume is adorable and well-made. The material is thin, but this makes for a lightweight costume that's great for warmer climates. It is generously sized so warmer layers could be added under the costume for chilly Halloween nights.
We received many compliments on our family outing to the pumpkin patch. My busy girl had no trouble getting around in the suit. It features snap legs so diaper changes are a breeze too.

This costume is so cute and realistic looking! However, the cap is HUGE! I don't see it fitting any 18 month old...or 3 year old! That is the only thing wrong with this costume. Otherwise, it is adorable!

This is the second costume I've purchased from this website! The quality is definitely worth the money! This suit is very nice - with authentic looking patches. It fits perfectly (although my son is small for 18 months, only weighing 22 pounds).

Former Catillacs guitarist Richie Bean and drummer Susan "Crash" Costa are now flying a new flag and living a new adventure. Teaming up with the multi-talented Joe Wright on guitars and mandolin and Monte Allen on the Fender bass they have formed the Americana-rock band Lonesome Highway.
Bean and Costa share the vocal spotlight, often singing in tight harmony, with Joe also being a featured vocalist on select numbers. They do several originals ranging from folk-rock ballads to trippy psychedelic garage rock. Also covering songs by the likes of Lucinda Williams, Ryan Adams, Warren Zevon, The Jayhawks and Drive-By Truckers, with the odd Elvis or Glen Campbell thrown in, they are a dynamic and entertaining band.
Hailing from different parts of the United States, the members of Lonesome Highway bring a mixture of cultural and musical backgrounds to the table, which blend together in an interesting way. Richie and Joe represent the west, hailing respectively from Reno and Marin County, while Costa, from Fall River Massachusetts brings the east coast element, and Monte, who once worked in Little Richard's road band is the southernmost, coming from Louisiana.

Oztrail Wentworth Swag
Oztrail Wentworth Swag
Enter qty and post code to calculate shipping:
No shipping charge if collecting from our warehouse. Address to pick up from Unit 9 / 19 Powells Rd, Brookvale, 2100, NSW. Mon-Fri between 9-4pm
Configure your combo.
OZtrail Wentworth Swags
Dimensions - 210cm x 85/65cm shoulder / foot 65cm height
Packed dimensions - 70 x 35cm
Weight - 6kg
• Tough and reliable 320gsm SatProof™ 600+ canvas
• Full size hoop pole dome style construction with generous height
• High-tensile Durallium™ 7001 alloy pole
• Front window with awning
• Easy access top opening
• No-See-Um mesh panels for total insect protection
• 5cm high density open-cell foam mattress with polycotton sleeping surface
SatProof™ 600+Canvas
SatProof™ 600+ Canvas is a blended cotton canvas used in a variety of material weights depending on the design requirements. The anti-mildew water proofing agent is saturated throughout the canvas before manufacture so even after wear and tear it will still provide a waterproof barrier. SatProof™ 600+ Canvas creates a waterproof canvas that minimises condensation build up, while the structure of cotton allows water vapour molecules to pass through and at the same time provide a barrier to water droplets. The roof fabric in the Cabin Tents and Camper Trailer Tents is rolled under pressure to accept a silver coating that blocks out more than 98% of UV radiation and heat. The technology used in this protective coating has been developed to provide a level of finish never before seen in a canvas product.
Conditioning your Canvas
It is vitally important that you season your canvas when it's new and also after long periods of storage so it gives its best performance. Simply pitch your tent or swag and wet it down with a garden hose. This enables the stitching holes to shrink around the thread of the stitch lines and the cotton in the canvas to swell. Let the canvas dry completely before repeating this two or three times.
Tips and traditional first aid for canvas products
Even though you may have seasoned your canvas, sometimes you can miss a spot or a seam. An age old remedy if this happens is to carry a clear wax candle with you when you go camping. If you do notice a seam has not been seasoned properly, simply rub the candle on the exterior of the stitch line. This will create a waterproof barrier quickly and easily.
If cared for correctly, your OZtrail canvas will still be around for the next generation of campers to enjoy.

Superior entry level swag
These are a great entry level swag for anyone starting out camping, I purchased one for a grandson and within a week or two had purchased another for another grandson, both teenage boys and chose these swags for the remarkable value for money and also the simplicity of setting them up, with teenage boys involved there are not too many parts involved and the chances of them loosing bits is considerably diminished. They are an easy swag to look after and roll up after use, I expect them to get several years of happy camping from them. The insect proofing is a great feature as they often camp near the river when fishing, so the local mossies will need to look elsewhere for a feed. So to sum up :-
1. great price
2. good quality
3. insect proof
4. Kelly's are great to deal with, rapid delivery and good custumer service.............. thank you :)

Our Conferences and Events
The 2014 National Conference on Dialogue & Deliberation was held on October 17-19 in the Washington, DC area. Visit www.ncdd.org/ncdd2014 to learn all about the conference. We especially encourage you to check out…

- NCDD-CRS Meetings Being Planned Across the Country
- Peek into the NCDD conference on Storify
- Check out the best photos from the conference and learn all about our visual field mapping project
We hold our much-loved national conferences every two years, but NCDD always has something going on. Learn more about our Confab Calls, Tech Tuesdays, and other activities below, and follow the news blog for upcoming events in the field, and to learn more about the various projects NCDD is involved in.
"Confab Call" Series
NCDD's popular "Confab calls" are opportunities for members of the NCDD community to connect with each other, hear about exciting projects in our field, and explore our field's most pressing challenges. Our confabs feature some of our community's most exciting leaders, projects and topics. Check out the confab archives to access audio recordings and archives of the collaborative docs participants have worked on for all our past confabs!
Next confab:
We've been busy planning our National Conference, but our Confab Call series will return!

Upcoming events:

Text, Talk, Act on Mental Health
On December 5th, 2013 and then again on April 24, 2014, we encouraged NCDD members to participate in the first-ever, nationwide text-enabled dialogue on mental health. All that was required was 1 hour, 4 people, and at least 1 phone.
This is a project of Creating Community Solutions – a collaborative effort led by the National Institute for Civil Discourse, the Deliberative Democracy Consortium, AmericaSpeaks, Everyday Democracy, National Issues Forums Institute, and the National Coalition for Dialogue & Deliberation. We're excited to be experimenting with the use of text messaging technology to help groups of young people and adults, all over the country, get together in small groups for one-hour discussions on mental health.
The initiative was designed to engage high school and college students in particular, using technology that is ubiquitous in their lives. Over 600 phones (and approx. 2,400 people) joined in to "Text, Talk, and Act" in December, and about 800 phones and an estimated 2,000 people participated in April.

NCDD was proud to help the Kettering Foundation identify a couple dozen leaders from the dialogue and deliberation community to be invited to attend this year's annual Public Voice event at the National Press Club – both as featured roundtable participants and as observers. The overall program was organized by the Kettering Foundation.
Members of the NCDD community who were in attendance gathered for an NCDD-hosted meeting immediately after lunch at the Press Club, where we networked, reflected on the morning's discussion between deliberative democracy leaders and policymakers, and gained a better sense of each other's strengths, current projects, needs, and capacity. We explored how we can collectively become more of a united force, and discussed some ideas for ambitious projects we can work on together.
