Online learning requires regular access to a computer with Internet as well as basic competence in word processing, email, and Internet. The MPH Program utilizes the learning management system, ANGEL (A New Global Environment for Learning), which runs well on the most common operating systems. ANGEL is compatible with a PC utilizing MS Windows OS: Internet Explorer or Firefox or with a Mac utilizing OS X: Firefox.
Students need a good command of the English language. The ability to read and write well is important because much of online learning is print based, and student assessments are often based on written assignments.
Most students have many other responsibilities, such as family and work, so a strong motivation to complete each course is essential.
Online learning is very independent and flexible, which makes it easy to put off class work until the last minute. Procrastination can be a significant problem. Self-discipline is required to stay current on assignments and complete class work in a timely manner.
While there are opportunities to work with other students, the majority of class work will be completed independently. There usually is no face-to-face contact with faculty or other students, and when students have questions, they must take the initiative to communicate with their instructor.
Feedback may – or may not – be immediate in online learning. It takes time for instructors to respond to questions and grade assignments, so patience is required. On the other hand, online quizzes may grade automatically, notifying students of their scores and explaining the correct answers immediately after submitting.
Online courses require as much time as – and often more than – classroom courses. On average, an online course requires 6 to 10 hours per week. However, shorter (more intense) summer courses may require more.
Online learning provides students with the flexibility to create their own schedules. Course materials are available 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. This allows students to tailor their schedules to their responsibilities and personality (i.e. late night vs. early morning person).
The MPH program works hard to support our public health students. Instructors want students to succeed and will work with them to ensure they do. Additionally, program staff are available to assist and offer advice, as needed.

Production: Overdrive Release Date: 2013/02/28 Artist: CaS Song: Feather Song Resolution: 1024x576 File Size: 120MB ---> 51MB Official Site | Getchu | EGS | VNDB
Tomoe's life appeared to be quite dull. He didn't make any friends (of course no girlfriend) nor did he have any hobbies. He gets up only to go to school and sleeps after he returns home. Every day is just the same unchanging routine. However, he was not unhappy with his life. There is nothing to lose when you don't have anything in the first place. If you wished for something, you would only end up getting hurt in the end. He knew this since he had already tasted the cruelty of the world before.
His quiet days came to an end when the angel Aine appeared before him. Angels are the protectors of love, who spin the 'red string' and sing to support humans. Tomoe did not believe that love could bring happiness, but Aine objected and enlisted his help in getting couples together. Maybe seeing the many forms of love and happiness with his very own eyes would make Tomoe understand what true happiness is, as well as the reason for him living on. – Hau~ Omochikaeri~!

A 5 minute walk will take you to the paddle tennis/pickle courts.
If your choice of activity is off the courts, there are weekly organized bike rides and hikes around the area. There are book discussion groups, yoga pool class, quilting gatherings, mah jongg, donuts/bagels/coffee every Sunday at Clubhouse
At the Clubhouse, there are daily bridge games, a fully stacked library, a ping-pong table, pool table and couches to relax and converse.
This is also the site for the Sunday morning gatherings around the sunken stadium Center Court with coffee and donuts available.
Frequent afternoon/evening events are held here, many pot-luck, usually centered around a holiday, an event (Super Bowl) or a tennis function.
For off-site activities and entertainment, DCTC is a mile from the renowned El Paseo with fabulous shops, restaurants, and art galleries.
There are world-famous golf courses, all within a 5 mile radius.
Weekends--a fun Street Fair and Market, there's a choice of over 25 movie theaters, hot-air ballooning, and the Water Park (for the grandkids).

DCTC is a gated community where you are guaranteed to have a wonderfully relaxing fun vacation in the Desert. This is where you can come and participate in a fun community of active vacationers or just sit on the patio, surrounded by the snow-capped mountains, and read away the quiet days in the sun.
Keywords: bright, townhouse, facing greens, fully loaded, home away from home
I work full-time in the entertainment industry, teaching the minors who act in film, TV, commercials and live theater. I enjoy biking, tennis, hiking, my grandkids, and love to travel. My favorite place to relax and recoup is at DCTC. A load is lifted off my shoulders as I round the turn leading into the Desert area and I always return to my home in Los Angeles happy and refreshed. This is the best therapy for my overloaded, stressed, high energy lifestyle.
The Owner purchased this condo in 1979
I choose to own a vacation home at Deep Canyon Tennis Club in Palm Desert because this is the place I can always return to if I need to unwind from the hectic activities of city life in the 21st century. There's hardly a 'bad' day in the Desert and once here, it takes seconds to settle into this new mode of relaxation and ease. The unique location of DCTC protects it from the winds and there is nothing more pleasing than sitting on the patio watching the sun go down behind the snow-capped mountains.
DCTC offers some of the best tennis in the area. The tennis pro is brilliant at matching up partners and games and there is tennis available, from sun-up till way past sun-down (thanks to the court lights). There is a unique community of winter vacationers who return to DCTC year after year, drawn back by new and old friendships, the laid-back lifestyle and the availability of activities that range from bridge to quilting to guided bike rides and hikes. You can engage in activities throughout the day or just meander through the art galleries and museums on El Paseo and catch up on a year's worth of reading. You have as much privacy as you wish, but if you want company, it's usually less than a minute's walk away.

So t
he production duo called 42Ghosts just emailed me a link to their entire album remix of Death Grips Exmilitary.
They renamed it Triple Ex Military and put up some interesting imagery behind it.
Also swore at me a lot in their email.. Followed by what looks like a death threat?
" We are going to make you the 43rd Ghost if you don't post this you bitch"
I was almost offended… Almost.
Press viagra super active australia play. You will find yourself pleasantly tolerant of insults and such if you hear what these fuckers are putting out there.
As far as what's next, they told us they are "working on trying to get Paul McCartney to rap but he is too drunk to respond to the emails"

Hey everyone,
This is my third introducation post on these Expecting Club forums, but unfortunately I've needed to drop out from the two before this. I experienced a spontaine miscarriage as well as a blighted ovum last year, so this is my third pregnancy and I'm hoping this will end with me holding a healthy baby in my arms. It's really early days and I know anything can happen, but I try not to worry and take one step at a time.
I'm glad to be here and hoping I get to stick around through September :) Any other first-time moms here?

Where Are They Now, 2010; Part 25
After being drafted by the Atlanta Hawks this summer, Gladyr left the Ukraine for the first time and moved to the ACB to play with Suzuki Manresa (formerly known as Ricoh Manresa). Manresa have an 11-13 record on the season, yet they're comfortably in the middle of the table, currently placing 10th out of 18 ACB teams. Gladyr is third on the team in scoring with a 9.9ppg average, alongside 2.1 rebounds, 3.6 fouls and no other significant statistics per game. For a shooter, though, he's not shooting too well, shooting only 32% from three point range. And given that he has attempted 135 three pointers compared to only 35 two points, that's not ideal. It is not an ideal first season in Spain for Gladyr; that said, for a 20 year old in the ACB, it's pretty good. Young players don't normally play much there.
- Dion Glover
Glover played briefly on the 2004-2005 Spurs team that won the NBA Championship, but found himself having to go to summer league that year in order to get more employment. After averaging 19/5/5 for the Rockets team, Glover got a contract from Houston and made the team, but was waived in December of that year without playing a game. He never played in the NBA again.
Glover split the 2006-07 season between Lebanon and the D-League, and later played for a couple of Dominican Republic teams. He last played in March 2008 with a Venezuelan team called Gaiteros de Zulia, for whom he totalled 8 points in his only appearance. As for what he's done since then, here's Dion telling you himself.
Also note the accuracy of his prediction there. Well, half of it.
- Andreas Glyniadakis
Ex-Pistons draft pick Glyniadakis is Olympiakos' 15th and cheapest man. Olympiakos bought him from Marousi in the summer, along with former Minnesota pick Loukas Mavrokefalidis, in order to fill their quota of Greeks, and the two now spend a lot of time on the bench together, waiting for Olympiakos to build up a lead so big that they can take out Giannis Bourousis, Sofoklis Schortsanitis, Nikola Vujcic and Linas Kleiza. Glyniadakis has played 103 minutes all season, totalling 33 points, 22 rebounds and 28 fouls. This means he must have made contact with an opposing player at least 28 times. I'm not sure I believe that.
- Anthony Goldwire
NBA journeyman Anthony Goldwire made an unexpected appearance in the Spanish fourth division last season at the age of 37, playing for the remnants of Girona, a former ACB team who imploded due to bankruptcy a couple of years ago. Goldwire averaged 10.4 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists at that incredibly low standard of basketball, and has since called it quits. He now assists Lifetime Fitness in establishing their basketball league program. Goldwire was also on hand to help manage the Bakersfield Jam's open tryout back in March, which seems odd in that he appears to hold no formal position with the team.
This seems like a good moment to post a picture of Anthony Goldwire modelling an ill-fitting coat.
- Joao Gomes
Gomes is an athletic Portuguese forward who was an NBA draft candidate back in 2007. He is playing with Breogan in Spain's LEB Gold, and is averaging 11.7 points and 5.4 rebounds per game. Gomes was not drafted and is not very interesting, so let's move on to Jamon Gordon.
- Jamon Gordon
Gordon was one of the replacements Marousi brought in this summer as they tooled up for their debut Euroleague season. It was a good season at that; they were still in the competition up until yesterday, when unfortunately their already-eliminated Greek rivals Panathinaikos beat them by three points and eliminated them. Gordon had 10 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in the game.
On the season, Gordon leads the team in assists in both the Euroleague and Greek leagues, a feat not insignificant considering that Marousi play a two point guard lineup with Gordon and Billy Keys. Gordon averages 10.5 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.1 assists in the Euroleague, alongside 8.9/3.1/4.1 in the Greek league. He has shot a combined 17/71 from three point range.
He is known as Jamon Lucas in Greece, even having that on the back of his jersey. I do not know why this is.
- Jamont Gordon
The confusingly similarly named Jamont Gordon is also in the Euroleague, playing for Cibona Zagreb. Like Marousi, Cibona just got knocked out of the Euroleague at the Top 16 stage; like Jamon, Jamont leads his team in assists. He averaged 13.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game in Euroleague play, including ranking 1st overall in scoring in the Last 16 group stage (20ppg) and 5th in rebounds. Gordon also averages 13.1 points, 4.0 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game in the Adriatic League.
Jamon Gordon is the lefty out of Virginia Tech. Jamont Gordon is the lefty out of Mississippi State. They're both big strong athletic point guards with jumpshot concerns, whom both just got knocked out of the Euroleague. It's not in the least bit confusing.
- Brian Grant
As you probably already know, Brian Grant recently went public with his struggle against early onset Parkinson's. That struggle continues; sadly, that struggle will always continue, because a cure does not yet exist. This article by Ken Berger describes Grant's daily battle with the disease, what it's cost him, and of what it's going to cost him. I found it very upsetting and I believe you will too. God bless you, Brian Grant. He definitely owes you one.
- Taj Gray
Since leaving Oklahoma in 2006, Gray has spent four years in France. He started with Chalon, averaging 16.1ppg, 6.1rpg, and 1.3bpg, before moving to Paris-Levallois for the 2007/08 season and averaging 10.4/5.0/1.3. Last year playing for Roanne, those numbers shot up to 19.5/7.3/1.1, which was enough to get him a training camp contract with the L.A. Clippers. He didn't make the team, and thus went back to France to rejoin Chalon, for whom he is averaging 17.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 0.7 blocks per game in the French league, alongside 14.4/5.9/2.0 in the EuroChallenge.
- Caleb Green
Caleb Green, one of Division 1's elusive 2000/1000 club, is still in Belgium. Last year he averaged 15/6 for Dexia Mons-Hainaut, and this season he's averaging 12.0 points and 5.1 rebounds per game for Oostende.
After going 9-29 from three point range in his four year college career - as opposed to his 812-1495 from two point range - Green is now turning himself into a three point shooter. He has 78 three point attempts in 21 games this year, compared with 101 two pointers and 88 free throws. He's good at them, too, making 34 of those 78 for a 43.6% success rate. Reinventing himself rather well, it appears.
His teammates there include Eddie Gill and Bracey Wright, and Oostende also feature two other Americans in Matt Lojeski and former Padres closer Trevor Huffman. The rest of Oostende's rotation features a Cameroonian (Stephane Pelle), a Slovenian (Dragisa Drobnjak), a Nigerian (Leigh Enobakhare, henceforth known as "Emo back hair") and a Bosnian Serb (Veselin Petrovic). Other players to have left Oostende during the season include Ivan Paunic (Serbian international; moved to Aris), Vladan Vukosavljevic (another Serbian; moved to Aliaga in Turkey), and Javier Mojica (American/Puerto Rican; now playing for Bayamon in Puerto Rico). Because of those 12 foreigners, Belgian players for Oostende have played only 176 minutes all season, split between three players; Quentin Serron (166), Jean Salumu (7) and Yacine Baeri (3). That's 176 out of a possible 4,200 minutes; therefore, only 4.19% of Oostende's PT has been shared amongst Belgian players. For comparison's sake, Americans have a 53.62% share.
God bless Belgian basketball.
- Devin Green
Green made his way to his fifth consecutive NBA training camp when he signed with the Minnesota Timberwolves this summer. He did not make the team, as he and every other signee lost out on a spot to Jason Hart, who played all of 5 minutes for the Wolves and who is now out of the league. Green then moved to Greece and joined Olimpia Larissa, leading them in scoring with a 14.3ppg average along with 4.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. However, he left the team in January, reportedly because of a pay dispute. (Note: when American players leave Greek teams midseason, it is usually because of a pay dispute.) Green has joined the annual Puerto Rican exodus, signing with Galitos de Isabela. In his two games for the team so far, Green put up 38 points and 13 rebounds.
- Gerald Green
Green squirmed out 4 years in the NBA, but never came close to realising the potential that a man with his combination of athleticism and jumpshooting has by default. He last played with the Mavericks; however, at the Nerdjerkfest Conference Thing last week (or whatever it was called; said with affection, by the way), Mark Cuban famously and amusingly stated that Green "just doesn't understand the game of basketball." Quite the burn there from a man who spent a year signing his paychecks, but after four years of experimenting, the whole NBA seems to have bought into it.
Green is now in Russia playing for Lokomotiv Kuban. He is averaging 15.6 points and 3.4 rebounds per game.

Just some stuff about Sergyi Gladyr's life in Spain. She's currently injured because he punched a hoarding during a game after missing a 3 pointer shot. Result: a broken hand. For a shooter like Gladyr, that sucked. I think he still have to be an extra month out.
He's also a tough defender, and made an amazing block to center Chris Moss some weeks ago. I'm sure you will find it in Youtube.
Besides of that, I had the chance to meet him personally in Manresa, and he doesn't think he has yet the level to play in the NBA, but it's convinced that he can do great things in Spain. He has the talent to do it, i'm sure.
And the people around him say he's a hard-working nice guy. It seems he's already adapted to Spain. Such a shame his injury!.
Your webpage is absolutely classic. Great work!!
Good luck!!
Christians have mistakenly believed the perception of the Biblical definintion of The Beast as a person. I suggest The Beast instead refers to a place:::The San Francisco Bay Area. In fact the Gods offer a geographic clue suggesting this, like so many others they offer around the globe, to help people understandL:::ReplyDelete
Mt.Diablo, "The Devil" is the "eye" of The Beast, the EastBay shoreline as the upper jaw/incisors while the peninsula is the grinding lower jaw. Witness the disturbing upturned smile in the gullet.
The fact than man has shaped much of the shoreline in the 20th century is a testiment to the God's refusal to accept any culpability.
Gold Rush, counter-culture, alternate lifestyle acceptance, etc. The Beast was used to promote social decay throughout the 20th century and beyond. Difficult to perceive in the current age, one can understand their impacts from a historical perspective.
There was a time when once the Gods "divinely" inspired punishment, where the act was inflicted by the hand of God. They were punishing people and accepting the culpability arising, maintaining societal integrity. Now, in the 20th century and beyond, the Gods tempt man to inflict this punishment, selling them on "earning", incurring no culpability in the process. The result is social decay and deterioration of mankind's favor in the eyes of the Gods.
The Italian peninsula is very pronounced as it juts out into the Medietereanean.
Considering the shape it is quite obvious they were the primary targets of the post-IceAge/Straight of Gibralter/Noah's Flood disaster.
Considering the shape of the boot and how Sicily "caught" the surge, the resulting tsunami inundated the entire southern portion of the peninsula, killing everything and perhaps covering even the highest land masses.
In the 20th century the Italians were convinced entering clone hosting was ascention into heaven, and their success was a recruiting tool, just as the Holocaust was for the Jews.
The Gods have black women betray the men to prime misogyny in the black community.
They're lying to you and they've been your WHOLE LIVES!!
Europeans deserved to be inflicted with Christianity and the United States. It's just too bad the black man had to assimilate into this white punishment.
How ironic:::As they strive for "equal rights" they actually are sinking lower into the mire of disfavor.
Reverse positioning.
Just as the Gods prohibited the Italians from attacking the Moors because of their favor, so were the Jews prohibited from attacking (most) motherland Germans. Instead they attacked German-Americans.
And the United States for ignoring the Holocaust as it happened. Thus we had the 60s and the deterioration of decency in society.
The Italians, sexual a primary problem, had an endless supply at hand.
The Jews, sheltered from this new-world holocaust in their communities, watched the devestation.
As you entered the "valley of steel" you fell prey to temptation and betrayed your families and were punished:::The Gods "managed" these groups whom did their dirty work, "downgrading" the Jews for their obscene wickedness post-Holocaust.
Both Catholic, the Irish were too drunk to organize, which is why they didn't hurt the BILLIONS which Italians did.
It was the degenerate Italians who planned and did the legwork for WWII who were funneled into the Nazi death camps when they thought they were ascending into heaven, avoiding the ugliness they planned for everybody else.
Life can be so sweet.
I want to play doctor.
And justice for all.
That's pretty much the best comment ever.ReplyDelete
the previous post said you would have one of james gist more famous teamates and i was expecting to see john gilchrist but he is no where to be foundReplyDelete
I'm referring to one of Gist's current teammates.ReplyDelete
Gilchrist was one of the best players in Australia this year but suffered a season ending injury a few weeks back.

For Home Sweet Home, Rosenbaum transformed over fifty Brazilian homes with colorful makeovers that were easy on the wallet. Their beautiful homemade vertical garden infuses a home's walkway with greenery, and it can be constructed almost entirely with found materials. Cilantro, basil, parsley, chives and lettuce grow in tufts all along the walkway, infusing the air with fresh scents.
To construct the garden Rosenbaum first collected hundreds of plastic soda and water bottles and then rinsed them and stripped them of their labels and logos. A rectangular cut was then made in each bottle to serve as the top of the planter. Rosenbaum then threaded the bottle planters together in columns by poking holes at either end of each bottle and holding them in place with anchor weights. Spaced evenly apart, the columns of bottle planters were hung along the wall to form a grid. Each bottle is then filled with dirt and seeds, and voila – a living vertical garden.
The firm released an official instruction manual (in Portuguese) to inspire others to create their own vertical gardens that not only grow food, but also repurpose plastic bottles found around the house.

I love it ! I saw this pic last year and decided to do a search, in order to find out what herbs were planted and how to make it. I\'m so happy I found all the information. I am replicating it as a part of my New Year\'s resolution. Thank you
willemvancotthem February 26, 2013 at 3:57 pm
This is a pretty wall garden, but not a practical one as one has to water each bottle separately. That problem could be solved by hanging the bottles in vertical columns and having a couple of drainage holes at the bottom of every bottle. Thus, one could water the top bottle of every column and water would drip from bottle to bottle. Anyway, I prefer to set up bottle towers (see my You TUBE-videos on that method).

Family budgeting is all about choosing between the options available to us, including those that help us to stay out of debt. One of those important options we have includes creating a family budget that meets our individual needs. Unfortunately, for many of us, budgets are a reality check that we try to avoid. For example, our family budget might tell us that we make enough money each month to pay that electric bill, but we need to give up going out to eat twice a week, or eliminate a habit of buying such expensive clothing or take paycheck loans in order to afford all these things.

We used budget tool for the first time. Entered Income and Expense information. When we went to update financial info, the income fields showed up just fine. When we went to enter expense info, however, the categories didn't change to expense fields, they stayed as income. Is this a glitch that is being worked out? Thanks.

The family budget tool is very useful, but will you ever provide it in Spanish? I love that I can change the language of the site, but I noticed that the Spanish version lacks the Family Budget Tool. Is it in your future plans to create one in Spanish? It would be a great help at my organization, but only in Spanish.
Hi brookechcdc, I am the Producer of the Beehive Money section. We are in final stages of a new and improved budget tool available in both English and Spanish.

Modernizing the Constitution
Oct 12, 2012
General Nonsense
If you were going to modernize and redesign the constitution of the United States, what changes would you make?
You and I have two huge advantages over the Founders. We have the benefit of a few hundred years of track record to see what worked and what didn't, and we have the Internet. It's hard to imagine that Franklin, Jefferson, Madison and the rest would design the constitution the same way if they were starting now.
Our biggest political problem at the moment is that we have two powerful political parties, and two is a bad number for getting anything done. Every issue becomes an endless slap fight with no clear winner.
So what is the optimum number of decision-makers?
If you have only one decision-maker, you have a dictatorship. That would be terrific if your dictator happens to be awesome. But no one wants to take that sort of risk. Dictators are rarely awesome.
A many-party system, such as Israel, has its own set of problems. You don't want too many parties all pulling in different directions.
The ideal number of decision-makers for any sort of organization is three. When you have three votes on any issue, the result is always a decisive 2-1 or 3-0. Obviously that only works if the decision is a yes-no type. The worst case would be three parties with three different plans.
So how do you design a system that has the benefits of three decision-makers without the risk of getting three different plans for each issue?
My proposed constitutional change is to allow three - and only three - political parties, as follows:
1. Liberal Party
2. Conservative Party
3. Science Party
Each party - no matter how many members - would get one collective vote in Congress on each bill. All bills would be decided on a 2-1 or 3-0 vote. So you always get a result that looks decisive to the public. That's the first benefit.
Now let's say the Science Party is all about data and rational thought. The party would recruit scientists, engineers, and other quantitative types. The Science Party would be allowed to vote, as a block, on every bill, but they wouldn't be allowed to introduce their own legislation. That prevents a situation where there are three plans for the three parties and nothing but deadlock. The Science Party would only be allowed to vote for the liberal or the conservative plan. But the Science Party would have tremendous influence on those plans because the other parties would understand they have to get the Science Party vote to succeed.
With this arrangement, the Science Party is on the winning side of every vote. The public would always have the benefit of knowing that the facts mattered. That doesn't mean the Science Party is always right. It just means the decisions are always informed by reason. Realistically, the Science Party would usually be settling for the lesser of evils.
The risk is that the Liberal Party or the Conservative Party would each try to get their moles elected in the Science Party. But if that were a huge risk, you would see it happening under other Democratic systems, and you don't. I think well-defined parties would do a good job of filtering out the pretenders.
The Science Party would need the power of abstaining in case the other parties produce two thoroughly unworkable plans. So you still have gridlock if you need it. But members of the Liberal and Conservative parties would have a hard time getting reelected if they kept disagreeing with the Science party. Challengers would use it as a hammer.
I would also tweak the constitution to make it illegal to combine different topics into one bill. That gets rid of the pork projects.
The Science Party would be charged with keeping the public informed via Internet. Unlike the other two parties, the Science Party would fully explain the counterpoint to every argument and lay out all of the data and reasoning behind each issue.
I would also make voting mandatory, and require that it be done by Internet, assuming proper safeguards could be put in place to avoid voter fraud.
If the Founders had the technology we have today, and they had a robust scientific and analytical community to draw on, as we do, I think they would have designed the Constitution to take advantage of those assets.

You know the current Constitution says nothing about having two parties, right?

So... Explain again how the Science party does not end up being the ruling party?
Or... How the Science party remains in power after the Liberals and Conservatives agree to write them out of the constitution because they have too much power?
Perhaps the founders knew that there are no easy answers for overcoming political gridlock, that debate and negotiation between opposing views is a good thing, and that time and general elections will eventually overcome political gridlock.
Oh, and good luck convincing the population at large that this is a good idea anyway. Can you image the debate? "The Science Party doesn't care about you! They care about atoms and electrons! They think God is a particle and built the universe with Strange Quarks! I don't know about you, but I'm in this for the people, not for spending millions and millions on Silly String Theories!"
Liberal and conservative politicians may not be great at understanding science, but you've got to give them credit on the whole influencing people thing.

How can safeguards be put in place to avoid "moles" in the science party? What about the Paul Broun sitting on House Science, Space and Technology Committee mess. He is a medical doctor, but holds opinions that do not agree with known science. How can something like that fiasco be avoided?

I'd take most of what we have now, but...
Insist that all voting contests be ranked (a.k.a instant runoff voting, alternate voting), as our understanding of game theory unequivocably shows that First-past-the-post voting is detrimental.
I'd return senators to assignees from state legislators (instead of popular-vote positions -- the original intend was to protect individual state interests, and the senate has abysmally and utterly failed at this).
I'd also make our federal position on tax more practical and clear, specifically regards income, VAT, property, and estate taxes. I think taxes were a colossal weakness on the part of the original constitution. Particularly in light of taxation being their main issue at the time. Their "no federal taxes" plan as codified in the original constitution was impractical enough as to guarantee that someone would eventually reverse that and then have free reign to pervert it into today's tax chaos.

You totally had me up until you said better food on airplanes. You must be really good at telling ppl what they want to hear cuz I did not see that coming.
I dont "get" the impulse some ppl have to induce arbitrary pet peeves or favorite creature comforts into the power of govt. And its not just enshrining its value into the state. What this causes is the state to micromanage the bargains of private citizens. Now i cant buy a plane ticket without a 7 course meal, even if there is a market for low cost tickets, since govt prevents the commerce from occurring. All the cheapskates lose out. Im forced from changing the purpose of my ticket transaction. No longer is my purpose to get from point A to point B. Now im buying an experience (enjoyment/entertainment), that incidentally transports me as well.
I totally understand what its like to have a desire that is so underrepresented in society that there is no market created. It means my want wont get filled. Try living in another country, you will have the same effect when you go to the supermarket and look for your favorite brand of cereal.
This way of thinking (solve annoyance issues by power of govt) honestly feels like alien technology to me. its foreign and makes no sense to me. Enough ppl think that way that i must ask myself what am i missing? Are ppl with reasonable worldviews of govts role suggesting this?
I saw a movie trailer last night for the new Tom Hanks movie. The narrative started with something like "We dont belong to ourselves, we belong to society", immediately Im replaying "you didnt build that" in my mind. Seems fitting that the movie is named so closely to Atlas Shrugged. maybe tom hanks is secretly obama's speech coach...
To me the airplane food and the collectivism are 1 and the same argument. I thought we already worked that out centuries ago with separation of church and state. govt provides for fair treatment via force, religion motivates ppl to do good voluntarily. they are 2 social institutions that have separate purposes and means to an end. combining moral worldview with (institution of) force is just bad policy. imo leftwing social agenda qualifies as a moral worldview such as religion. we are mismatching purposes and forms of coercion.
can we plz stop trying to sneak "brands of morality" into law? if you think a carbon tax is a science measure ive got a bridge to sell you. listen to the justification narrative. it has villains and victims, its a story of hubris and "right and wrong". If you want to take my money by force, dont sell it to me on moral grounds. i dont share your morals, and i dont want them forced upon me. Use all the morality arguments you want for voluntary telethon fundraising, maybe ill voluntarily adopt those values.

As usual, a technocrat's idea of "progress" is to limit freedom to assume that "science" is somehow inherently incorruptible.
Two fixed parties (which many people don't even identify with) isn't the solution.
A "science" party (that can just as easily be corrupted or biased as any other party) isn't the solution.
The Constitution doesn't need to be "modernized". It need to be followed according to its original intent.

I actually liked Bill O'Reilly's comment from the Rumble in the Air-Conditioned Auditorium, that Americans should only be allowed to vote if they were eligible and voted in the last election.
And naturally (by my previous discussion, for which I apologize if that's responsible for your note) I'm in favor of a 3rd party as deadlock-breakers, but I'd be fine with more than 3 and I definitely don't like the 'collective vote' idea. I think it entirely eliminates representative democracy.

Here's a moist robot tangent: what would the women (and men) of the science party look like? UCLA released an interesting study about 6 weeks ago that showed a minor correlation between facial features and political party.
I suspect many will be wearing glasses and have an Einstein haircut.

If you didn't think Merlisk was really advocating killing the elderly why were you going on about the benefits having elderly in your society in a post directed at him?

Another change I would love to see is an automatic expiration date on all new laws. That probably sounds pretty radical but I think it would fix a big problem. We've got this group of lobbyists and legislators constantly passing new laws. Over time the federal register has gotten so big that I bet almost everything a human being can do is now illegal.
A new law should go through an experimental stage that last for, lets say, five years. At that time it expires. If it's working, it would have to go through the political process again and be re-passed and re-signed. That would give it another five years. Only if it gets passed a third time does it become permanent.
Think of how great this would be! The politicians could keep passing their big piles of crap every year based on whatever the current political hot button is. In five years it all goes away unless it's important enough to still get enough political support to pass. If it can do it again, it's probably important enough to qualify as a good law.
Of course this would also require the single bill, single subject change. It would make the passing of laws less efficient but it would also make learning and obeying the laws much simpler and that would benefit everyone.

One flaw in the constitution is that it only means whatever the 9 justices of the Supreme Court say it means. This has led to some pretty twisted rulings and a concentration of power at the federal level.
I'd allow Supreme Court decisions to be overturned by the state Supreme Courts. It would work like this. If a controversial decision was made by the Supreme Court, each state's Supreme Court could decide to hear the case and vote to uphold or overturn it. The Supreme Court decision would be overturned if 2/3's of the states overrule it. I'm not sure what ratio would be best. Maybe a simple majority would work. Whatever the ratio, the ability of the states to overrule the federal court would tend to keep them honest.

I can just imagine all of the lunacy that would be included in this new document. Teenagers will insist that driving is a right. It isn't. Atheists will insist that marriage is a right. It isn't. Liberals will insist that healthcare is a right. It isn't. None of those things are in the current document or any of its amendments. And rather than trying to change the (lesser) laws which do enumerate these things, the weak minded and foolish will attempt to just push you over or scream loud enough and say that they are rights. If you want marriage to be equal to civil unions, change the laws that say "marriage" to say "civil union" instead. Simple, and no one has to get bent out of shape. Same for the rest.
The current United States Constitution is just fine the way it is. Those who cannot see that, well, they never will.
The idea of having 3 parties with 1 vote each is simply absurd, as others have already pointed out. It's a great way to make things worse, as others have already pointed out as well.
I do like that idea of 1 issue, 1 bill/law. No riders, no combining things, just let the really good stuff get done and let the chaff blow in the wind. Of course, this will kill almost all of the political rhetoric we're currently enjoying as the elections near. But that's a chance I'm willing to take.

I wouldn't make massive changes--Although I've got the benefit of hindsight, I don't think I'm smarter than the collective authors of our current constitution. I would remove some ambiguity, especially in the commerce clause., trying to keep a better balance of power between federal and state.
For elections my goal would be the opposite of a limited number of ideas--I would have a runoff system rather than winner takes all, so there are viable candidates for those of us who don't fit a standard left/right division. At least one house of congress would be set up so that each district had 5 or so representatives rather than just one.
I would also try to figure out some sort of soft term limits to counteract the incumbent's advantage. Never a situation where you aren't allowed to run, but add more hurdles the longer someone has been in office. (Maybe make congressional pensions larger than congressional salaries?)

Most sound like they are trying to make the Constitution better for the country and better for everyone. IF the Constitution was created today it would be more like the green lantern world or like the Borg. We really want everyone to be the same. You can't dissent.
Efficiency and safety. There would be no religion because we wouldn't agree or offend anyone. the Constitution in Canada I heard was originaly debated 2 ways. Should it say how Canada is now or should it say how Canada should be.
IF a new constitution of America was made it should say how America is now, not how it could be.
So basically it would be more of a " We the people who login to face book look around for hot mates and !$%*! about having to lift a finger. We red Blogs and share our thoughts in the hope of appearing clever. The smart ones like comics and visually can get what the world is. We see others as stupid and if we envy what someone else has we find some fault. Government is ironically made by people to control others from doing stuff that they probably would like to do themselves such as drive without seatbelts, drink, or think differently."
anyway If I could change things, I'd allow more state power and less National Control. Better food on airplanes, cheap fuel for motorcycles, steak and bacon 3 meals a day for everyone, access to exercise facilities, swimming pools, cigars, PS3 games, wall to wall walmarts. heh,
Why not have people choose what state to live in ?
One state could be the smoking state, the drinking state, the pizza state. I mean we may as well have fun if we are going to rearrange the country.
Pull all troops back from abroad. Hmm. Interesting question but really who should be president?
Different Kingdoms would be fun. Like Madonna could have a cult city and lady gaga another. I think if we redid the constitution the world would quickly become like Mad Max's.

That Merlisk had actually advocated killing the elderly.
That really is a mystery to me because I was unaware of such a belief on my part.

The fundamental premise of your argument, Scott, is that we can somehow construct a framework that will constrain the current abuses of the system.
We can't. Humans are just too clever and resourceful.
It's like campaign finance reform. Like it or not, money is essentially equivalent to speech in modern times. If you don't let me spend money directly supporting my candidate, I'll spend money on her political party (see: DNC, RNC). If you don't let me do that, I'll spend money on TV ads arguing positions that happen to coincide with my candidate's. If you don't let me do that, I'll pay for a documentary biography of my candidate that just happens to cast her in a very favorable light. If you don't let me do that, I'll throw a huge party with free beer and snacks where everyone invited is given a free pamphlet espousing my candidate's positions. You can't stop me from wielding my financially-based influence unless you jail me. (Maybe not even then.)
So look -- there is only one way out of our current conundrum: reduce the size, scope and power of the federal government. That's it. Period. If you do that, you won't have $1m salaried lobbyists hanging around Washington, D.C. because it will no longer be profitable.
Currently, we're placing a truly gargantuan amount of money and power in the hands of about 500 people. Is it any wonder that this attracts the unscrupled? DC lobbyists get paid so handsomely because the expected value of their "contributions" is likely to be five or 10 times what you pay them. If I could pay a lobbyist $1m to get $5m in tax breaks or subsidies from the feds, why wouldn't I? What a great return.
Downsize, folks, downsize.

Scott, I just have to ask you - what's wrong with freedom? Why do you keep on insisting that we need a big, bloated, expensive, out-of-touch, ever more restrictive government to "decide" things for us?
Government tends to grow larger. The more unchecked it is, the larger it will attempt to grow. The founders realized this, and so they created a Constitutional Republic and the concept of federalism - that is, people in the US are citizens of two !$%*!$%*! the nation, and the state in which they reside. The purpose of the Constitution was to limit the powers of the federal government by specifically enumerating what those powers were, and restricting the federal government from doing anything else.
As the Constitution was being written, some people were afraid that the people had to be specifically protected from the government in that document. Jefferson and Adams countered that, if the Constitution was structured such that the federal government could just do such-and-such and no more, there was no reason to guarantee any protection of rights, because the federal government by law could not go beyond the bounds of the enumerated powers. But the worriers prevailed, and so the first ten amendments to the Constitution came into being. We call these the Bill of Rights.
The Constitution is the supreme law of the land, but today it is largely ignored by an out-of-control, overly powerful federal government. I don't think you appreciate how much the founders wanted freedom and liberty to always be protected as, in effect, "Job 1." That was the concept that permeated their thinking in building the framework for this country.
I don't think you have an effective understanding of how brilliant and well-educated these men were, or how much thought and planning went into the structure of the country they built. I really wish I could give you the chance to understand all of this, rather than always seeing you look to create a bigger and more powerful government through restricting freedom and liberty. Force people to vote? Only allow three parties? Gee, Commissar Adams, should we then replace the national anthem with "The Internationale?"
Here's a gentle suggestion: read the Federalist Papers. Read some of the writings of Jefferson, Adams (not you; the second president) and Franklin. Read some of the writings of the people who influenced the founders, such as John Locke. Try to understand this country's structure and what the founders were trying to protect us from, before you jump into a plan to make it even worse than today's federal government.
Shortly after adopting the Constitution, Franklin was asked by a Mrs. Powel of Philadelphia, "Well, Doctor, what have we got? A republic or a monarchy?" Franklin replied, "A republic, if you can keep it." We're pretty much no longer a republic - we're sadly living in a post-Constitutional America. The utopians have pushed freedom aside in pursuit of an impossible perfection, leaving the Constitution in the dust.
I know Scott won't take my advice, but for the rest of you, you should try to understand what I'm writing about. Read the things I suggested to Scott. You can get all of them at any public library, so it won't cost you a cent. I'd also recommend reading Mark Levin's book "Ameritopia," to get an understanding of the philosophies behind the competing ideas of utopianism and freedom. Go to Hillsdale College's web site (www.hillsdalecollege.com) and take their free courses titled Constitution 101 and 201. Even if you don't want to take the whole course, you should at least listen to Dr. Larry Arnn's first lecture, which is an introduction to the Constitution, specifically as to how and why it was created.
Our schools no longer teach this, so you're going to have to get it on your own. Public schools nowadays seem more focused on teaching climate change theory as fact, or discussing the Seven Pillars of Islam, than they are about teaching about the founding and structure of what at one time was the freest and most prosperous nation on earth. But it's more than worth a few hours of your time. I hope some of you will take me up on this. If anyone would like to discuss this directly with me, email me at email@example.com. All rational, non-insulting emails will be responded to.

The MIMO Study Group proposes to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial in order to determine whether a low implant density cohort has equivalent clinical and radiographic results to a high implant density cohort. This study is proposed as a trial of equivalence. The null hypothesis is that significant differences exist in percent major Cobb angle correction between high- and low-implant density cohorts for Lenke 1A curve types, the most common scoliotic curve pattern (73). Consecutive qualifying patients will be screened and enrolled by high-volume spine surgeons at 14 sites and randomized to spinal instrumentation with a low- or high-density screw pattern. Patients will return at 3-months, 1-year, and 2-years for exam, radiographs, and collection of patient-reported outcome scores. The Harms Study Group Foundation will serve as a collaborating organization and will provide database development and management, secure online data collection, centralized radiographic measurements, and data quality control. The University of Minnesota team will lead study design, protocol development, IRB/data use agreement contracts, patient randomization, and statistical analysis, including quarterly data review. Imaging will be obtained either with an EOS system or using a calibration belt during the radiographs, which allows for subsequent with the 3D modeling of the deformity. Six enrolling sites currently have this capability (EOS - Montreal, St. Louis, Iowa, Mayo, DuPont, and San Diego). An additional five sites already have calibration belts - Dallas, New York, Baltimore, Boston, U. of Rochester), and new calibration belts will be fabricated for the additional sites. The Montreal site will supervise collection of radiographic data with 3D capability and assist with troubleshooting and radiographic quality control. Although the study is primarily powered to detect change in percent correction of the major coronal curve, preliminary data will be gathered on axial and sagittal plane correction as well as complications, surgical factors, and patient-reported outcomes.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients aged ≥10 and ≤ 17 years
- Male or Female
- Diagnosis of idiopathic scoliosis for which surgery is recommended to prevent the curvature or to correct trunk disfigurement Lenke 1A curve pattern
- Curve cobb of 45° to 65°
- T5-T12 kyphosis measuring 0° to 40°
- Spina bifida Oculta is permitted
- Spondylolisthesis and Spondylolysis are permitted, as long as non- operative
Exclusion Criteria:
- Prior spinal surgery
- MRI abnormalities (including >4mm of Syrinx and/or Chiari malformation)
- Neuromuscular or other serious co-morbidities
- Thoracogenic or cardiogenic scoliosis
- Associated syndrome or developmental delay
- Unable or unwilling to firmly commit to returning for required follow-up

maybe I should start watching TARA lol
The comparison that comes to my mind is with Dustin/Kandace, who as winners of Miss California and Miss New York both had constituencies of more than 30 million people. Pailin and Natalie match them in beauty and charm, but seem to fall woefully short in intelligence and endurance. If they had those qualities in abundance we should be hearing about that and we aren't. What a pity!

Yellow Squash recipes?
My neighbor gave me some yellow squash and I'm looking for some ideas with it.
Kevin PA...........can you make that "Mock apple pie" dessert with yellow squash or does it have to be the zucchini?
Thanks for responding Kevin. I will give it a try!
bumping for more ideas for yellow squash............
My favorite is deep fried with ranch dressing for dipping. I like it grilled too. Of course there's the standard squash sauteed in butter with onions and garlic. I also like squash casserole--I plan on trying this one using lc bread crumbs for the topping
I LOVE that Paula recipe!.....I also replace the cracker crumbs with LC bread crumbs AND I add cooked, crumbled bacon....*LOL*
hmm.......that Paula Deen recipe does sound good! (but I'm not surprised) :hyst: I never thought of grilling it? And I like grilled veggies. I just might try it! Thanks..........and keep those ideas coming!
Sliced with onion, tomato, mushrooms, and fried with bacon!
yellow squash sliced & vadallia onion , 1 clove of garlic chopped sauteed with olive oil and your choice of herb and spices. Delish. Ess
Sauteed in butter with about a tablespoon of Worsterchesire sauce, and some parsley, oregano, garlic to taste.
Raw, julienned (sp) with, oil and vinegar.
I grill mine on the Foreman. Slice it, spray with Pam, grill for 12 minutes, toss with butter and seasonings (we love Greek seasoning for this.) Even the kids love this.
My two fave ways to cook it are:
Sauteed in butter with a little Mrs. Dash added in during the last minute of cooking-and I like it al dente.
The other way is to oven roast it in some peanut oil and add some Mrs. Dash on top.
It's also great raw in salads or sliced thinly and dipped in ranch dressing...it tastes kinda nutty. The best squash eaten raw in my opinion are the pattypan/scallop squash--they have the best flavor.
Wow.......who knew there were so many recipes with the lowly yellow squash! I've made zucchini sauteed with garlic, onion, and then added stewed tomatoes and put shredded cheese on top. I never thought of using yellow squash for this? Thanks everyone for all the ideas............
Oh, yes, you need it! :p It is very versatile. Perfect for pork chops, great on eggs (I don't like eggs much, so I am always trying to fix the taste of them), soups, potatoes, and whatever else you have. We haven't found anything yet that it doesn't work with. It is my favorite mixed seasoning in the kitchen. Also, my DH has a shaker of it at work, he uses it on his lunches there.
Slice,add to ziplock bag with olive oil,minced garlic & italian seasonings. Shake until they're all coated. Place single filed on a foil lined pan then sprinkle with parmesean (dry grated) cheese. Bake for about 15 minutes @ 350.
If you like zucchini chips try these sliced real thin and baked until crisp. YUM!
My votes go to squash cassarole and grilled that's my favorite ways to fix it.
Whenever I have yellow squash I just boil it and put my homemade alfredo sauce on it. I made it the other night and my kids kept asking for more! My alfredo sauce is quick and easy-- 1 stick of butter, 1 cup of heavy cream and 3/4 cup parmesan cheese (the cheap in a green container kind) and 1-2 cloves of garlic. I then add some cream cheese to thicken it a little--sometimes a few ounces, sometimes the whole 8 oz brick just depends on what I have on hand. I just put it on the stovetop to "melt" together, but you could microwave it. I love it on chicken too!
MMMMM! That sounds yummy! I am adding that to my to try list!
This is from Southern US Cuisine
Yellow Squash Pie
Sure the sweetner, flour and pie crust could be sub. Never tried this before but I saw it and thought, heck why not post it, maybe someone has tried it and can tell us what it taste like.
This squash pie is a dessert pie made with cooked summer squash and other ingredients.
5 medium summer squash, sliced
1/4 cup melted butter or margarine
3/4 cup sugar = Splenda??
1 tablespoon lemon or vanilla extract
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour=Carbquik or Carblose Flour??
2 egg yolks, beaten
dash of salt
baked pie shell, 9-inch=Carbquik/nut crust or no crust??
Steam squash or cook in a little boiling salted water until tender. Drain squash and mash. Combine butter, sugar, and lemon extract; stir in flour, beaten eggs, and mashed squash. Pour squash mixture into baked pie shell; bake at 375° for 25 minutes, or until firm.
Slice it julienne style with zucchini, quarter some purple onions, chunks of bell pepper. Put in a ZipLoc bag with some olive oil and apple cider vinegar with whatever spices or herbs you like (basil, sometimes I add chopped cilantro, salt, pepper). Put in fridge and marinade several hours. It's a nice cold veggie salad on hot summer nights.
Here's what I ended up doing with the squash........
I sliced it fairly thin, put it in a casserole dish, covered it with a chunky pizza sauce, chopped garlic, salt and pepper, and covered it with shredded mozzerella and provolone cheese. I baked it in my convection oven for about 40 minutes on 375. It turned out wonderful and my DH who said he didn't like yellow squash ended up eating most of it. It tasted like pizza! Yummmm.....
If your neighbor happens to bring you some more summer squash...here's another delish recipe to try... :)
"Aussie" Squash Fries
Long neck yellow squash (or possibly zuchini)
cheddar cheese, shredded
bacon, cooked and chopped
Olive oil, salt, & pepper (plus other spices to your taste)
Cut squash lengthwise into fry shaped pieces
Fry in olive oil until browned and done.
Remove from skillet and place in oven proof baking dish.
Sprinkle with cheese and bacon pieces.
Heat in oven until cheese is melted.
Serve with spicey ranch dip.
Pretty yummy!
Has anyone tried the aussie squash fries? That pic sure does look good.
I have tried them and really enjoyed them. They did not taste like fries (of course), but it was quite enjoyable all the same!
I like to slice the squash into rounds that are approx 1/4-1/2 inch thick. Slice some onion into rounds. Slice some bell pepper, mushrooms & use Cherry tomatoes. Any other veggies are fine too.
Place ALL of it onto some HEAVY DUTY foil. Add at least a half stick or more of butter. Sprinkle garlic salt/pepper & 1 -2 tsp. of oregano. Sprinkle lots of Parmesan cheese. Wrap the veggies tightly in the foil. Place on hot grill for about 5 minutes then carefully turn over and heat an additional 5 minutes (more or less depending how thcik your veggies are cut).
All that butter melts along with the seasonings & cheese while cooking! YUMMY!!!
Old Fashion Boiled Squash and Onions
Slice the squash into rounds, quarter some onion.
Place in a pan with some water, salt, pepper and a touch of butter.
Boil until tender ...enjoy!

The fighting between Israelis and Palestinians continues to escalate, as Hamas takes credit for a rocket hitting just outside of Jerusalem. Our Erin Connolly has the latest on the situation in the Middle East.
ISRAEL --Palestinian militants targeted Jerusalem Friday for the first time in the three days of fierce fighting between Israel and armed groups in the Gaza Strip. Air raid sirens were heard throughout the city, and witnesses said they saw a stream of smoke in a suburb of the Capital City. Hamas took credit for a rocket hitting just outside of Jerusalem. Several rockets have already been launched into Tel Aviv since Wednesday.
Dr. Steven Leibo, a professor at The Sage Colleges said, "Hamas has been lobbying weapons and bombs into Israel for years, but not very effectively. What's changed is their ability to get to population centers more significant Tel Aviv and that area.''
Dozens of missiles exploded in Gaza City over the past few days, hitting the Interior Ministry and targeting about 150 other sites. Earlier Friday, Israeli leaders said they would suspend their offensive in the Gaza Strip during a visit by Egypt's prime minister, as long as there wasn't hostile fire from Gaza into Israel. Militants ignored the message, instead firing more than a dozen rockets toward Southern Israel during the visit. Israel responded by bombing the house of a Hamas commander in the Gaza strip.
Dr. Leibo said, "The single bottom line is that communities on both sides are trapped with leadership too often dominated by people with no imagination and no willingness to move to some reasonable compromise."
Many believe these latest attacks could draw an Israeli ground invasion of Gaza even closer.Meanwhile, the U.N. chief is urging Hamas to end its rocket attacks on Israel and asking leaders there to exercise maximum restraint. We requested an interview with the Palestinian Rights Committee located in Albany, but our phone calls were not returned. We did talk to the chair elect of the Jewish Association of Northeastern New York.
Louis-Jack Pozner, the chair elect for the Jewish Federation of Northeastern New York said, ''As a Jewish American, it's particularly upsetting but as an American who understands that Israel is the only democracy in that part of the world, they share our values and their prime minister is a native born American and its very distressing.''
And unfortunately it doesn't seem like peace in the Middle East is in the foreseeable future.
Dr. Leibo said, ''In the end, Americans like to think that everything can be solved and that's not necessarily the case here.''
