Mustang, Camaro and Challenger owners use statistics like 0-60 times and quarter-mile trap speeds to prove why their chosen muscle car is better than the rest. If there's any other segment of the industry where numbers mean everything, it's heavy duty pickups.
Need proof? Check out the latest set of towing and payload ratings for the HD versions of the Chevrolet Silverado, Ram, Ford F-Series and GMC Sierra. For what it's worth, the GM twins officially have the highest set of numbers with up to 23,000 pounds of capacity when trailering a fifth wheel, 18,000 pounds with a conventional trailer and 7,215 pounds of payload capacity when properly equipped.
So, GM's got the bragging rights... for now. We expect Ford and Ram to counter GMC's latest statistics with revised ratings of their own, after a few small tweaks allow them to earn back their place atop the HD standings. After all, it's been happening exactly this way for the last several years.
For a fun little rundown of how the three American pickup makers play the game of one-upmanship, we suggest you check out this story from our friends at PickupTrucks.com. Speaking of which, after that website's latest HD pickup comparison, at least GM has earned the right to boast by taking top honors against the F-Series and Ram.

Soaring Adventures
Ever since Hollywood action heroes began flying on steel cables strung between cliffs, buildings and trees, zip lines have captured the imagination of the everyday person. The true birthplace of zip-line tourism, however, rests with the rainforest canopies of Costa Rica. It was here that zip-line excursions took hold, and then spread worldwide, offering an ideal "high thrill-to-skill" activity for almost anyone with an adventurous spirit and average fitness capabilities.
How-To Guide
The zip-line industry is growing rapidly, and keeping up with the latest technology, best procedures and most effective policies can be a daunting task, says Monty Holmes, owner of Captain Zipline Adventure Tours in Salida, Colo., just west of Colorado Springs. A comprehensive source for information is the Association for Challenge Course Technology (ACCT), a trade association which offers membership and training.
The Nuts And Bolts
Most zip lines are made of galvanized aircraft cable built to military specifications, but stainless-steel cables and connectors are used in some jungle and marine environments.
There are several different cable configurations and braking systems, both mechanical and gloved participant-actuated. Some systems use twin cables–one above the other–where others use two harnesses and a single cable. Alternative braking mechanisms are being developed constantly. For zip-line rides with steep descents, a cable-car assembly may be more appropriate.
Before opting for a mechanical component in a zip-line ride, consider carefully since this decision mandates inspections by the state amusement-ride authority, and adds to operating costs substantially. Captain Zipline Tours utilizes the original Costa Rican zip-line techniques with a single ½-inch cable and gloved-hand braking and cable-rope brakes operated by the landing-area guide with no mechanical equipment involved.
A typical zip-line tour begins with a group of 4 to12 guests and two guides. Prescreening potential zip participants is important to weed out any conditions that could compromise the guests' health and safety. Explanation of the required liability release and signature are required for insurance regulations, and provide a last check of past and present health conditions. No cellular telephones or cameras are permitted on the tour, as they are an unnecessary distraction. Guide presentation of the tour sequence and discussion of safety issues are followed by fitting the harnesses and helmets. Trolley and carabiner gear are attached to the harness, and gloves are fitted to participants; one final check for proper gear fit and a personal observation of the participants are conducted before the practice zip-line demonstration. Specifically, guides check for the "Five H's":
1. Long hair must be tied back and under the helmet.
2. The harness must fit snugly.
3. All hardware should be in good, working order and properly configured.
4. Helmet fit has to be comfortable and secure.
5. The "human" condition is evaluated for readiness and ability to travel on the cables. All guests are assisted "zipping" on the practice (bunny) cable while proper technique is explained until each guest feels ready and willing to continue.
Guides must check each other's gear before beginning the zip tour. The lead guide goes first, zipping down the cable to the landing to await the customers, and providing rope-assisted braking for them, if needed.
Back at the takeoff location, participants are hooked up individually by the trailing guide; they zip down the cable, are unhooked at the landing platform, and are directed to assemble in a group out of the traffic flow.
The trailing guide follows and unhooks himself/herself, and the group proceeds to walk (between the guides) to the next cable span.

Wow about 4 pages of comments on pres. Odramas visit ,and most don't deal with anything said,alot with contraversies with Paterson,nothing about healthcare,Van Jones, ACORN ect..
Despite your fevered imaginings, #1, Van Jones and ACORN are 100% irrelevant to anything.
Really ACORN isn't important to anything?
The only people who care about ACORN are birthers and tea partiers.
Complaining about ACORN is thinly veiled race bating. It is really just an excuse some conservatives use to justify their ill behavior.
In the Nixon years, these same people were saying love it or leave it. Now the shoe is on the other foot.
Acorn should be investigated how taxpayers money was spent.
President Barack Obama can discuss personally about Governor
David Paterson 2010 aspirations. The President should not
be involed in local politics. There are national social problems
to solved.
I guess someone should tell congress and the senate that ACORN isn't relavant,Sancho are you asserting that ACORN is a black only group?So I guess all those 83 senators are racists birthers?
The 83 senators are primarily chickens. ACORN is a liberal group that has done a lot of work to get poor and often black people registered to vote. Most of this work is legitimate and legal.
The fear mongering usually has an economic slant to it. If the brown people are empowered to vote, they will have more pie. There will be less pie for white people if they have to share it with the brown people.

Live your Unitarian Universalist values out loud. Make your year-end gift today!
About Us
Press Room
Page Navigation
The Unitarian Universalist Association has passed several resolutions that recognize racial and economic disparities in sentencing within our legal system. The more salient are excerpted below. To search the full catalogue of Social Justice Statements, click here.
Alternatives to the "War on Drugs"
2002 Statement of Conscience
OUR CALL TO END THE "WAR ON DRUGS" AS A MATTER OF CONSCIENCEFor more than thirty years, American public policy has advanced an escalating "war on drugs" that seeks to eradicate illegal drugs from our society. It is increasingly clear that this effort has failed. In practice the drug war disproportionately targets people of color and people who are poverty-stricken. Coercive measures have not reduced drug use, but they have clogged our criminal justice system with non-violent offenders. It is time to explore alternative approaches and to end this costly war.
Instead of the current war on drugs, we offer the following policies for study, debate, and implementation:
Substance Abuse
1991 General Resolution
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Unitarian Universalist Association, its member congregations, and individual Unitarian Universalists be urged to call upon all people and governments to:
4. address the underlying economic, social, and psychological conditions which give rise to substance abuse;
5. enable growers in source countries to replace drug crops with other economically rewarding crops;
Drugs1973 General Resolution
BE IT RESOLVED: That the 1973 General Assembly of the Unitarian Universalist Association urges the governments of the United States and Canada:
3. To place a major emphasis upon eliminating the social conditions like poverty, unemployment, and racial discrimination which may feed addiction;
End the Death Penalty
2000 Action of Immediate Witness
Holding capital punishment as inconsistent with human life on account of its retributive, discriminatory, and non-deterrent character, General Assemblies of the Unitarian Universalist Association have opposed capital punishment restoration or continuance in any form (1961, 1966, 1974, and 1979).
How much longer will we, as a nation aspiring to democracy and fair play, condone capital punishment? How much longer will we, as a nation aspiring to liberty and justice for all, condone the ultimate loss of liberty for so many, whose numbers include a disproportionate percentage of persons of color?
Capital Punishment
1979 General Resolution
WHEREAS, the aforementioned resolutions have urged complete abolition of capital punishment as inconsistent with respect for human life; for its retributive, discriminatory, and non-deterrent character; and opposed its restoration or continuance in any form;
Capital Punishment
1961 General Resolution
WHEREAS, capital punishment has not always been used impartially among all economic and racial groups in America;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: That the Unitarian Universalist Association urges its churches and fellowships in the United States and Canada to exert all reasonable efforts toward the elimination of capital punishment;
Criminal Justice and Prison Reform
2005 Statement of Conscience
As Americans, we take pride in our constitutional promise of liberty, equality, and justice for all, including those who have violated the law. Yet the incarceration rate in the United States is five- to tenfold that of other nations, even those without such a constitutional promise. Our corrections system is increasingly rife with inequitable sentencing, longer terms of detention, racial and ethnic profiling, and deplorable jail and prison conditions and treatment . The magnitude of injustice and inequity in this system stands in stark contrast to the values that our nation - and our faith - proclaim. We are compelled to witness this dissonance between what America proclaims for criminal justice and what America practices. We offer an alternative moral vision of a justice system that operates in harmonious accord with our values as a community of faith. This vision includes the presumption of innocence, fair judicial proceedings, the merciful restoration of those who have broken the law, the renunciation of torture and other abusive practices, and a fundamental commitment to the dignity and humane treatment of everyone in our society, including prisoners.
The Current Crisis
There are also stark disparities in the racial composition of our nation's prisons, as African Americans account for fully half of the prison population and comprise only thirteen percent of the total population.
Failures in the criminal justice system have created a disenfranchised, stigmatized class who are predominantly from lower-income backgrounds, poorly educated, or from racial and ethnic minorities.
A Call to Unitarian Universalists
Advocacy Goals
Legislation that strengthens gun control, ends the so-called "War on Drugs," disallows mandatory minimum sentencing, provides for fair, equitable, anti-racist sentencing, and abolishes the death penalty.
Criminal Justice
1974 General Resolution
WHEREAS, the current prosecution, court and penal practices frequently translate political, social, and economic problems into personal and psychiatric problems, thus justifying increased control and repression;
Penal Reform
1971 General Resolution
NOTING: That the majority of persons arrested are males between 10-30 years suffering such social injustices as poverty, racism, poor education;
FURTHER NOTING: That public pressure for punishment has resulted in barbaric prison and jail systems productive of more crime;

Your Weekend Photography Project – Your Neighborhood
Written by: Tiffany Joyce
As the co-owner of a website whose readership spans the entire globe (hello to our reader from Vanuatu!), I am always very interested in learning about where our readers come from, and what their daily lives look like. So, in light of the article I wrote yesterday, I offer the following weekend challenge for you all. Pick one, pick two, pick all three, or put your own unique spin on it. These weekend challenges are just designed to spark some inspiration and get you out there with camera in-hand!
1. Go outside and photograph your neighborhood. Host a photo walk of one (or take your family along – this is a GREAT project for kids just starting out in photography), walk around your neighborhood, and take shots of those things that appeal to you. This will be a great prep for those of you who are planning on joining a photo walk. As an added challenge, try to stick to a single theme – things that are round, things that are red, flora, fauna, interesting textures, and the like.
2. Go macro and photograph your back yard. This is also a great one for including your kids! Pretend you're a giant spying on a tiny little world. Grab your macro lens and get down in the dirt – photograph the industrious ants, the texture of a tree trunk, the details of a fallen feather. Conduct a photo walk in your own back yard, covering every inch of it. You'll be surprised at all the things you discover!
3. Go inside and photograph your home. If it's cold or rainy outside, that doesn't mean you can't play! Photograph a "day in the life" – of yourself, your child, your significant other, or your roommate. Take some self-portraits. Pretend you're shooting for an architectural or home decor magazine and create classy still-life and lifestyle shots. Pursue a theme within your home – vases, wall hangings, sentimental possessions, or your pets. Cook a delicious meal and photograph each stage of preparing it. Use your imagination!
Please share your photos on our Facebook page or our Flickr group. Most importantly, have fun!!!

Parkersburg (AO–163) was laid down 30 December 1943 as MC hull 1731 by Sun SB & DD Co., Chester, Pa.; launched 12 April 1944; sponsored by Mrs. Anne L. Curry; and acquired by the War Shipping Administration.
Under WSA the vessel was named Fort Cornwallis and operated by Spencer-Kellogg & Sons, Inc. until she was purchased in the late 1940's by the Standard Oil Co. (N.J.), New York, N.Y. and renamed Esso Parkersburg.was activated by the Maritime Administration and transferred to the U.S. Navy for service in the Military Sea Transportation Service and designated USNS Parkersburg (T–AO–163) on 28 November 1956.
Parkersburg was operated for MSTS by Marine Transport Lines Inc. She subsequently transferred to MARAD 27 September 1957 and was struck from the Naval Vessel Register the same day.
Parkersburg remained laid up with the James River Maritime Reserve Fleet until purchased in 1967 by the Marine Chemical Carriers Corp., which had the vessel "jumboized" and converted for use as a liquid chemical carrier. Upon completion of her conversion, she was renamed Marine Eagle and serves in this capacity into 1970.

Operation: White House 2012 by Worldwide Soapbox
Greetings all!
We have just released a new app for iPhone and iPad and wanted to let you all know about it!
Operation: White House 2012 is a non-partisan, fast-paced, arcade-style game that parallels this year's US Presidential election. Players begin by selecting the candidate that they wish to defend and then proceed through increasingly complex levels by fending off incoming attacks, in the form of 'issue bombs', that are being dropped by the opposing candidate.
The game features regular appearances by the candidates themselves, timely campaign-related content, and a multitude of issue-specific attacks and responses. It will be updated on an ongoing basis to incorporate the latest sound bites from the campaign trail.
Operation: White House 2012 also includes Game Center integration allowing players to challenge their friends to beat their high scores and match their in-game achievements.
As if addictive game play and killer user experience wrapped in a topical bow isn't enough, for the first time ever, Operation: White House 2012 lets players vote twice in a U.S. Presidential election! The first time the game is launched, players get to vote for the party to whom a percentage of profits should be donated.
The iTunes link to the Universal app for iPhone and iPad is: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/operation-white-house-2012/id562822609?ls=1&mt=8
A YouTube video showing the app in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0Lh9rvrsdE
The Great Debate levels are currently being finalized and tested so a new release with 20 brand new levels, each incorporating audio from the first presidential debate, should be submitted to Apple for review within the next 24 to 48 hours!

Point Park beats Carlow, earns second win a row
Jan. 27, 2009
WEST MIFFLIN, Pa. – Point Park defeated Carlow, 79-61, Tuesday in an American Mideast Conference women's basketball game at CCAC South Gymnasium to earn its second victory in a row.
Point Park (8-9 overall, 2-6 AMC) led by 15, 47-32, at halftime and cruised to victory over Carlow (0-17, 0-6). The Pioneers have defeated Carlow twice this season. Point Park defeated the Celtics, 67-57, Nov. 18 in an AMC crossover game.
Ashley Henderson (Greensburg/Greensburg Central Catholic) tallied 20 points and eight rebounds for the Pioneers. Henderson made 9 of 10 free throws, and the sophomore guard has scored at least 20 points in three of the last four games.
Henderson leads Point Park in scoring at 15.5 points per game, and she entered last night's game as the eighth-leading scorer in the AMC. Henderson, who transferred from Pitt and Canisius, ranks first in scoring among newcomers to the conference. She has five 20-point games on the year.
Terrica Jones (Pittsburgh/West Mifflin) recorded her second straight double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds. The redshirt freshman forward has four double-doubles on the year, and Tuesday she boosted her season averages to 10.0 points and 7.3 rebounds per game.
Senior captain Ashleigh Hays (Pleasant Hills/Thomas Jefferson) chipped in 12 points and nine rebounds as Point Park led on the boards, 54-39. Heather Swedish (Sewickley/Avonworth) added 10 points, four rebounds and three assists.
Henderson hit a pair of free throws to give Point Park a 13-5 lead after 3:58, and Swedish's 3-pointer gave the Pioneers a 19-8 lead two minutes later.
Carlow battled back to trim the lead to 22-17 on Lauren Roscoe's trey at the 12:10 mark. Roscoe led the Celtics with 20 points and nine rebounds.
Point Park built a 46-30 lead with 55 seconds left in the half on a 3-pointer by Hays before going on to lead by 15 at the break.
Marissa Reinhard (Plum/Plum) converted a 3-point play to put the Pioneers ahead, 60-40, midway through the second half. Carlow got within 68-57 with 5:46 left after Roscoe's 3-pointer capped an 11-2 Carlow run.
But a 3-pointer by Emily Anderson (Plum/Plum) and a layup by Henderson stretched the Point Park lead back to 16 points, 73-57 with 3:14 to play.
Point Park shot 40 percent (25-for-63) from the field and was 23-for-34 from the foul line. Carlow shot 30 percent (21-for-71) from the floor and committed 10 of its 15 turnovers in the first half.
Heidi Hollingsworth had 12 points for Carlow, and Erica Holby added 10 points, five assists, four rebounds and four steals.
Point Park travels to Malone Saturday for an AMC game at 5:30 p.m. Point Park defeated Malone, 67-57, Nov. 25 in an AMC crossover game at home. Malone (4-15, 1-7) lost to Walsh, 74-51, in an AMC game Tuesday.

We are pleased to announce the official launch of Princeton Alumni for Life and Marriage! This will be a monthly newsletter that runs during the school year with notes from the presidents of Anscombe and Princeton Pro-Life as well as campus updates and alumni events. Find out more here!
Gay Marriage? A Debate
The Elizabeth
Anscombe Society
Gay Marriage? A Debate
Join us this Wednesday, November 5th in McCosh 50 to hear Professor Stephen Macedo debate Sherif Girgis '08 on this topic:
Resolved: The case for same-sex marriage has a rational limiting principle, and changing marriage law accordingly would strengthen the institution of marriage.
Doors open at 7:10pm. Latecomers will be admitted at the back of the room at suitable intervals. Books to be sold following the debate.
See the Facebook event here.
Sponsored by the Princeton Anscombe Society with the support of the Love and Fidelity Network, the Leadership Institute, the Alliance Defending Freedom, Christian Union, the Program in Gender and Sexuality Studies, the Office of Religious Life, and the USG Projects Board
Welcome, Prospective Students!
All of us at the Anscombe Society would like to welcome you to Princeton, and we hope you enjoy your brief stay on campus!
Many of you will have some idea what club hockey, an improv group or a Christian fellowship are, but very few of you will have heard of anything like the Anscombe Society because there's nothing like it in high school. We are a club dedicated to promoting sexual values through reasoned discourse There are two aspects to our club: what we believe and what we do. You can see what we believe in our various position statements, but briefly we are a club that affirms the inherent goodness of human nature and human sexuality but that believes that that nature requires certain constraints on our actions. Who we are as humans and what our ultimate fulfillment looks like entail how we should act. Thus we believe in the importance of the virtue of chastity and defend the institutions of marriage and family. We also believe that the sexual norms we endorse are affirmed by human reason even without the aid of revelation or religion.
What we do is a bit more straightforward. We seek to develop an understanding of sexual ethics among our members and their ability to express that understanding, but we also engage the campus culture and hope to bring about wider acceptance of our views. Thus we not only have our weekly meetings where we discuss articles on ethics and politics but we also host public events such as Ryan Anderson's talk on marriage last semester and Professor Alex Pruss' on Christian sexual ethics.
If you're interested in getting involved with the Anscombe Society, please email us at email@example.com. Even if you ultimately decide on another school, we hope you can get involved with the pro-chastity, pro-family cause elsewhere.

Surrogacy Documentary Screening with Filmmaker Jennifer Lahl
Come watch filmmaker Jennifer Lahl's new documentary Breeders: A Subclass of Women?. This documentary explores the unintended consequences of surrogacy, as well as the moral and social implications of this increasingly common arrangement. A discussion and Q&A with Ms. Lahl will follow the screening. For more information, see the facebook event and the poster below.
This event is co-sponsored by Princeton Pro-Life
From the film's website:
"Surrogacy is fast becoming one of the major issues of the 21st century—celebrities and everyday people are increasingly using surrogates to build their families. But the practice is fraught with complex implications for women, children, and families. What is the impact on the women who serve as surrogates and on the children who are born from surrogacy? In what ways might money complicate things? What about altruistic surrogacy done for a family member or close friend? Is surrogacy a beautiful, loving act or does it simply degrade pregnancy to a service and a baby to a product? Can we find a middle ground? Should we even look for one?
From The Center for Bioethics and Culture, producers of the award-winning Eggsploitation (2010, 2013), and Anonymous Father's Day (2011), Breeders: A Subclass of Women? explores this important issue, talking with surrogates, physicians, psychologists, and activists across the political and ideological spectrum."

RESCHEDULED: Pruss Event this Friday
This Friday February 7th at 4:30pm in McCormick 101, Professor Alexander Pruss, a philosopher at Baylor, will be visiting Princeton's campus to givea public talk about Christian Sexual Ethics and its philosophical and theological foundations. After the talk, a group of Anscombe members and Christian student leaders will meet with him for dinner. We're really looking forward to the talk and dinner because Professor Pruss is one of the most brilliant Christian philosophers today.
We've invited him to speak about sexual ethics because he's recently published a book One Body on the topic. Professor Robert George called this book "quite simply the best work on Christian sexual ethics that I have seen," and we recommend this review on Public Discourse to get a sense of it.
(Pruss' lecture was originally scheduled for December but due to inclement weather and flight cancellations we had to reschedule for this week)
Please check out the Facebook event for the talk itself! Also have a look at Professor Pruss' blog, which he updates almost daily with interesting philosophical posts.
Who Killed God?
Together with the Tory and Whig-Clio, Anscombe is hosting Mary Eberstadt for a lecture on her new book How the West Really Lost God: A New Theory of Secularization. Many people think that secularization led to a decline in moral and family values ("the family that prays together stays together), but Eberstadt argues that rather the collapse of the family caused the decline of faith in the West. It should be an engaging talk, and it'll be interesting to see Mrs. Eberstadt defend such a bold thesis. Check out the facebook event also.
Letter to the Editor
Our president Ben Koons and vice president Christian Say had their letter to the editor about the Daily Princetonian's print edition headline of Ryan Anderson's talk published today.
Here's the Prince's headline:
Here's Koons and Say's letter in its entirety:
Letter to the Editor: Anscombe supports (media) equality
Regarding "PEP supports equality at marriage talk" (Thursday, Oct. 17, 2013)
The Anscombe Society would like to thank Regina Wang for her well-balanced piece covering our event last Thursday with Ryan T. Anderson '04 speaking about marriage. We believe, however, that the editors of The Daily Princetonian did a poor job of respecting Wang's balanced news coverage in the framing of her story.
Unfortunately, the print edition's headline following Anderson's lecture misleadingly read, "PEP Supports Equality at Marriage Talk." Had the editors paid any attention to the event itself, they would have known that Anderson observed up front that both sides of the marriage debate are in favor of marriage equality — contingent upon what marriage itself is defined to be. The headline pushed through by the editors of the 'Prince' was the mark of a biased editorial staff.
Further proof of this lies in the discrepancy between the headlines of the online and print editions. Online, the Anderson article has the much more balanced title, "With demonstrators in the audience, Heritage Foundation fellow Anderson '04 urges traditional understanding of marriage." This headline was released soon after Anderson's lecture, and the discrepancy between this balanced title and the biased print version reveals a conscious editorial decision to manipulate the coverage.
This poor framing of an otherwise generally well-written story should come as an embarrassment to the 'Prince.' We hope to see better editorial decisions in the future.
Ben Koons '15 and Christian Say '16
President and Vice President of the Anscombe Society
Event Photos!
Anderson Talk Video!
The daily paper the Prince has put together a video of Thursday night's event. Thanks to Zach Stecker for making this video!
One note though about the student's comments at the end, Ryan did not present any religious arguments in his presentation, and it's unfair to dismiss someone's legitimate arguments as religious just because one is unable to refute them. Also, Ryan spent half of his presentation talking about why the government involved itself in marriage at all, and so he certainly did not ignore the civil aspect of marriage. The student's comments were really off-base criticisms of an excellent argument.

text: Blue-eyed-soul singer Teena Marie always transcended race. Now she transcends time. Though 48, and more than a decade off the charts, Marie sounds right in step with today's neo-soul on her smashing comeback, thanks to collaborations with Cash Money producer Mannie Fresh and rapper Common. For a vintage R&B flavor, she's paired on one track with Gerald Levert and on another with Rick James, her benefactor of old. But even the hot material and taut production can't upstage the real star: Marie's sexy, supple voice.

Rich guys interested in Newsday; that's good, right?

Of course. That's how middle-aged parents should react in situations such as this.
But I also know this: I've seen many ups and downs in my (almost) quarter century around here, and I do believe Newsday's invaluable brand name on Long Island and decades of community service suggest we are not going away any time soon.

Animal Connections: Our Journey Together
Exploring Animal Connections: Our Journey Together
From cows that provide milk for a bowl of cereal to sea lions working with their trainers at the zoo or even puppies that chase the ball in the yard, the connections between humans and animals are vast.
A fascinating mobile exhibition, "Animal Connections: Our Journey Together," highlights this special relationship. Developed to inspire future generations of veterinary professionals, the exhibit explores and celebrates the enduring bond we all share with animals – from pets to livestock to animals in the wild – and the vital role that veterinarians play.
"Animal Connections: Our Journey Together" was created by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and is a collaboration with the American Veterinary Medical Association and the American Veterinary Medical Foundation, and with Zoetis as our company affirms a singular focus on animal health.
Tour Content
This 1,000-square-foot exhibit housed on an 18-wheel truck is divided into five sections, devoted to animals in the home, on the farm, at the zoo, in the wild and at the veterinary clinic. Visitors are offered a variety of ways to learn, including informative displays, dynamic videos and interactive experiences. In the home section, visitors will learn how to select the right pet and the possible dangers from pets eating food prepared for family members, household items like plants and even holiday decorations. A display in the farm section highlights the mobile clinics that large animal veterinarians stock with a variety of tools—from dental speculums to cow magnets—to ensure they are prepared for any procedure. A virtual clinic at the center of the exhibition provides visitors the opportunity to be the veterinarian. Through touch screens, they can examine and diagnose what ails their virtual patients—a dog, a piglet and a cheetah.
Zoetis and Animal Connections
Zoetis is proud to support "Animal Connections: Our Journey Together." The exhibition affirms our commitment to veterinarians as we strive to enhance the understanding of the vital role veterinary professionals play in protecting animal health and, in so doing, safeguarding human health. We aim for the exhibit to inspire young people to pursue careers in veterinary medicine and the allied professions.
Zoetis works every day to better understand and address the real-world challenges faced by those who raise and care for animals in ways they find truly relevant. We believe the connection between humans and animals is one of the most fundamental bonds that human beings experience. We are excited to introduce the exhibition to everyday citizens by showing the impact of animal health and demonstrating our dedication to the veterinarians and livestock producers on which we all depend.

(News Bulletin, December 2005)
If you are an educator, you have certainly heard students ask, "Will this be on the test?" The implications of this statement are far-reaching, since we know that students will focus their attention only on concepts and skills that they know will be evaluated. Assessment, according to NCTM's Assessment Standards for School Mathematics, is a process of gathering information about students' understanding for a variety of purposes, only one of which is evaluation. Evaluation is a process of assigning value to students' understanding. Although assessment is a valuable tool for teachers, students are most concerned about evaluation and their grades. In a very real sense, what teachers choose to put on tests helps students determine what mathematics is important, and in fact, helps shape their view of the nature of mathematics. For instance, if students see nothing but test items that evaluate their ability to do rote mathematical procedures, then it is very likely that they will come to view mathematics as a set of rote procedures.
To illustrate how our selection of test items can affect our students' attitude toward mathematics and their learning, consider the following example from the Open-Ended Assessment in Math Web site, at www.heinemann.com/math.:
Below is one student's response.
Clearly, this student is proficient at generating equivalent fractions to compare two fractions. However, the student has not demonstrated an understanding of the concept that to compare fractional parts you must also consider the sizes of the original wholes. This student would be able to correctly answer the question, "Which is greater, 1/2 or 1/4?" But a teacher who asks questions that are phrased like the example above will be able to assess the student's conceptual understanding in addition to his or her ability to perform mathematical procedures. From this assessment, the teacher will be able to determine whether more instruction is needed or not.
The NCTM Standards documents advocate learning mathematics with understanding, as opposed to merely learning rote mathematical procedures. The processes of problem solving, reasoning and proof, communication, making connections, and representing mathematics in a variety of ways play a fundamental role in developing students' conceptual understanding of mathematics. If teachers truly value these processes, then not only do students need to have opportunities to engage in such processes, but the processes also need to be evaluated in ways that have a significant impact on students' grades.
For example, if teachers value problem solving, students should be given opportunities to solve problems. There is a difference between working exercises and solving problems. An exercise involves following procedures that are the same as or very similar to examples shown in class. Problem solving, however, involves "engaging in a task for which the solution method is not known in advance" (Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, NCTM 2000, p. 52). If teachers want to send the message that problem-solving is an important part of mathematics, then not only should the opportunity to solve problems occur during homework, classwork, and extra-credit assignments, but it should also occur during evaluation. That is, the process of problem solving needs to be evaluated in a way that has a significant impact on students' grades.
When students ask the question, "Is this going to be on the test?" they are really asking you what you value about mathematics. We encourage you to take a look at some of your recent tests and consider what message you have been sending to your students about mathematics through the test content. Do your tests really reflect what you believe and value about mathematics?

Drug inhibits enzyme that spurs cancer growth
By Scott Roberts
WEDNESDAY, Feb. 12, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of Imbruvica (ibrutinib) has been expanded to include people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have tried at least one other anti-cancer therapy.
CLL progresses slowly, gradually leading to an increase in white blood cells called B lymphocytes. Last year, some 15,680 Americans were diagnosed with CLL and 4,580 died from it, the agency said Wednesday in a news release, citing the National Cancer Institute.
Imbruvica was approved last November to treat people with mantle cell lymphoma.
Approval for CLL was based on clinical studies involving 48 people, the FDA said. Some 58 percent of participants had their cancer shrink after treatment.
Among the most common side effects of the drug were: low blood platelets, diarrhea, bruising, upper respiratory tract infection, fatigue and muscle pain.
Imbruvica is manufactured by Pharmacyclics, based in Sunnyvale, Calif.
More information
The FDA has more about this approval.

'Supermom' denies arson; infant girl's death investigated
Melinda Sayers, the South Hill woman accused of starting a fire in her home the day before her baby daughter died at Seattle Children's hospital, pleaded not guilty Friday to first-degree arson and presenting false insurance claims.
Seattle Times staff reporter
A Pierce County woman, whose South Hill home burned the day before her baby daughter died, pleaded not guilty to first-degree arson and presenting false insurance claims on Friday, the same day authorities revealed they are investigating her daughter's death.
Melinda Sayers, 37, allegedly lit a candle in her living room and opened the valve on an oxygen tank for her 11-month-old daughter, Abigail, before calling 911 to report the resulting explosion and fire, according to the Pierce County Prosecutor's Office. Abigail, who was born three months premature, was scheduled to go home from Seattle Children's hospital the next day.
Sayers started the fire because she didn't want her daughter to come home, charging documents say.
Her financial gain — from a crowdfunding website and an insurance company — is under investigation, the Prosecutor's Office said Friday, and the Seattle Police Department is assisting the Pierce County Sheriff's Department in investigating Abigail's death, spokeswoman Renee Witt said.
Sayers told authorities on April 1 that she threw her 2-year-old son, Eli, out their home's ground-floor window after she saw smoke inside. She jumped out after him before an explosion, which at first was thought to have been caused by a leak in the oxygen tank. Sayers initially told detectives she didn't know how the fire started.
Abigail, who was scheduled to be discharged from Children's on April 2, suffered seizures that night and was returned to the intensive-care unit, where she died. Sayers spoke to several media outlets, who dubbed her "Supermom" for saving her son and coping with her daughter's death.
Fire investigators determined her story about the fire didn't match the evidence, which included a handheld butane lighter found on the living-room couch, according to a probable-cause affidavit. Sayers called 911 and said there was a fire alarm going off because of a fire in the living room; however, fire investigators noted it wouldn't have been possible to see any portion of the living room from the bedroom.
Detectives interviewed Sayers on Thursday and concluded they had enough evidence for an arrest, according to the Sheriff's Department. She was booked into the Pierce County Corrections Center on Thursday afternoon.
After the fire and Abigail's death, a page was created on a crowdfunding website for the Sayers family. It raised $32,000 to replace the family's belongings and help with funeral costs. Wanda O'Dell, who created it, wrote on the page Thursday that she is "horrified by the events" and was working with the crowdfunding site to refund contributions to those who want their money back. O'Dell noted, however, that Sayers' husband and children had been "victimized again from all of this."
The family also received from an insurance company a cash advance of $5,000 toward the loss of their home's contents and to help with temporary housing.
Sayers remains in custody in lieu of $200,000 bail. A jury trial is scheduled for June 17.

Marketers are constantly being challenged to get the most out of their budgets. And the process of measuring campaign performance that informs and delivers these results is analytics.
Break through the noise and reach customers with precision-targeted mobile marketing. This Aberdeen Group report highlights industry best practices for maximizing business results from mobile marketing initiatives.
Organizations today increasingly rely on social media to answer questions about their business: What do our customers think about us? What do they say about our competitors? What questions do they have about our products and services? Where and when do they talk about us? What do they love, and—as painful as it may be to hear—what do they hate?
Altimeter Group identified six primary top-down and bottom-up approaches and developed three case studies that illustrate how organizations measure the impact of social media on revenue. But while these six ingredients are consistent, the emphasis each company places on them depends on the nature of their business. There is no "one-size-fits-all" approach. The following pages aim to identify and describe — based on business, product, media, and customer type — the most effective "recipes" for measuring the revenue impact of social media that we have seen adopted to date.

Is your marketing as relevant as it should be? Gary Angel says, "Probably not." Read his latest white paper, and discover the most effective way to send the right message to the right audience at the right time using scoring and segmentation.
Gary Angel, President of Semphonic, brings his experience, knowledge, and ideas together in this informational white paper on segmentation in Financial Services. Gary brings practitioner experience from his database marketing roles along with segmentation and targeting consulting experience with companies including Visa and American Express.
Segmentation is used in a variety of ways by businesses today. The two most common applications of segmentation are reporting/analysis and targeting. Segmentation is often applied to reporting and analysis to help marketers understand the behavior of one portion of the population when compared to another. Segmentation is also used by virtually every marketer to target sales prospects and customers. This white paper focuses on common applications of segments in targeting within the healthcare industry.
Perhaps the most powerful and underused marketing tool available today is segmentation: the ability to identify high-opportunity customer groups within your marketplace. As competition heats up, marketers must get smarter and more creative about whom they are targeting for new acquisition and retention programs. The use of segmentation is a fundamental strategy for companies that wish to increase sales, uncover new opportunities and improve customer retention. In this paper, Kevin Hillstrom, President of MineThatData covers ten things you should know about consumer segmentation.
Like most solutions to business problems, successful site optimization requires the right combination of people, process, and technology. This whitepaper will go in depth on the people and process aspects of site optimization.
No matter what business you're in, converting prospects through the marketing funnel equals revenue. Whether you want customers to download, register or buy, you want your conversion rate to be the highest it can be — conversion equals the bottom line. The best way to achieve this is through testing variations of content to know for certain what drives conversions.
As customer engagement is now conducted largely through digital channels, offering relevant experiences becomes more and more vital to brand success. That's why testing and measuring content – from graphics to offers – to determine the best response rate is so important to marketing campaign success.

EU data proposals should 'go back to the drawing board' say MPs
A group of MPs is urging the EU to go "back to the drawing board" over its proposed reform of data protection laws.
Data protection: MPs and media industry bodies urge EU rethink over proposals
A report by the Justice Select Committee said the proposed updates to data protection laws, which would mean that brands would have to ask for prior consent from consumers to use their data, are "too prescriptive".
The committee was responding to a request from the European Scrutiny Committee for its opinion on both the draft Regulation and draft Directive, announced in January.
Sir Alan Beith, MP and chairman of the Justice Select Committee, said the current data protection laws for general and commercial purposes needed to be updated, as they did not account for the digital world.
However, he said he agreed with the Information Commissioner's Office, that the system set out in the draft regulation "cannot work" and is "a regime which no one will pay for".
Beith said: "We believe that the Commission needs to go back to the drawing board and devise a regime which is much less prescriptive."
The report claims the proposals "do not allow for flexibility or discretion" for businesses or other organisations which hold personal data.
Industry bodies have been pointed in their criticism of the EU's data law reform proposals in the past, labelling them as "chilling".
The Direct Marketing Association (DMA) has announced its support for the Justice Select Committee report.
Caroline Roberts, director of public affairs for the DMA, said: "We're pleased that the Justice Select Committee has taken on board the many concerns that businesses have about the draft Regulation and recognises that as it stands, the Regulation is not fit for purpose. Data protection legislation needs to be updated to reflect the realities of today's digital economy.
"We hope that EU lawmakers go back to the drawing board and create a Regulation that strikes the right balance in protecting the data privacy rights of individuals when sharing their information with businesses. Failure to do so would have terrible consequences for UK plc."
Last week the DMA, the Internet Advertising Bureau, the Advertising Association, the Incorporated Society of British Advertisers and the Institute of Practioners in Advertising met Helen Grant, justice minister and Ed Vaizey, culture minister, to put forward their concerns abut the draft Data Protection Regulation.
Following the meeting Vaizey said: "This Regulation puts at risk the innovation which drives online business and creative content, and it's particularly important for the UK that we address this. We must find a way to protect consumers that doesn't undermine some of our most valuable sectors."Follow @shearmans

Joe Rickman wasn't just another foot soldier. For the last eight years Rickman had ran the CIA's clandestine operations in Afghanistan. It was a murky job that involved working with virtually every disreputable figure in the Islamic Republic. More than a quarter billion dollars in cash had passed through Rickman's hands during his tenure as the master of black ops and no one with a shred of sense wanted to know the details of how that money had been spent. At first glance it looks as if Rickman has been kidnapped, but Rapp knows certain things about his old friend that cause him to wonder if something more disturbing isn't afoot. Irene Kennedy, the director of the CIA, has ordered Rapp to find Rickman at all costs. Rapp must navigate the ever-shifting landscape of Afghanistan as the Taliban, Iranians, Pakistanis and Russians all plot to claim their piece of the war torn state. With Afghanistan crumbling around him, Rapp must be as ruthless as his enemies and as deceitful as people in his own government if he has any hopes of completing his mission.
