Confessions of a Failed Young-Earth Creationist
I became such an expert in young-earth creationist theology and science that it turned into a wrecking ball for my faith.

I became such an expert in young-earth creationist theology and science that it turned into a wrecking ball for my faith.
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
Collection of the best articles of the past several weeks on science (and faith) from around the web.
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
Recent high-school graduate Jacob shares about his journey from young-earth creationism to evolutionary creationism, and how his faith was challenged and strengthened along the way.
The new Gallup survey shows in broad strokes the challenge we face. But more nuanced surveys find that only 8% of Americans are convinced creationists whose beliefs are dear to them, and only 4% are convinced atheistic evolutionists whose beliefs are dear to them. The vast majority of Americans are not sure of their position and are open to a conversation.
This weeks in Origins news: studies of a skeleton uncovered in 2007 provide clues about rapid human evolution in the Americas, our climate and Christian stewardship, a few BioLogos folks give interviews, and some cool links to miscellaneous finds.
We must press beyond the various creation narratives in the Hebrew Bible, including the final chapters of Job, to the picture of God revealed in the New Testament—the Creator who does not rationally explain away the scandal of suffering but who instead enters into it.
This week in our Origins News Roundup: News of new nucleobases, the future of synthetic biology, and some healthy dialogue and critique of certain aspects of modern science.
We are searching for a qualified candidate to serve as Content Editor, beginning August 1.
Today's Origins News Roundup features a tour of trending topics in neuroscience, from commentaries and questions made recently by popular media to developments in neuroengineering and the BRAIN initiative.
The BioLogos Book Club discussion of Francis Collins' The Language of God.
Does BioLogos believe that God is the creator? Yes, all Christians believe this; the question is, how did God create?
So what is BioLogos? Well it all began with a scientist and a book.
Because BioLogos accepts the scientific evidence for the age of the earth and common ancestry, Ham believes we are undermining the Bible and denying its authority. However, the authority of the Bible is key for all that we do at BioLogos.
So what is BioLogos? Well it all began with a scientist and a book.
Watch to see whether the debate encourages the opinion that science and Christianity are at war. We don't think you have to choose sides.
This list didn't come from a boring discussion of "what should be our core values." Rather, each of these commitments came up repeatedly in our discussions of what BioLogos is all about.
"Evangelicals really needed an organization that would stand up and say, in a nutshell, I'm an evangelical, and I accept evolution," he said.

Apply Now for the Write Time Black Writers Retreat
3 Jan 2012 BWRCadmin 3
Write Time Black Writers Retreat is a 2-1/2 day program immediately following Black Writers Reunion & Conference that offers attendees the peace and quiet to work productively on your writing in the calming surroundings of a beautiful beachfront resort. This retreat is about doing the work. Whether the work consists of the mental part of figuring out where the story is going, or what's not working, or the pounding out of a rough draft, here's your chance to escape and focus solely on your pages.
The retreat was created with the inspired attendees of the Black Writers Reunion & Conference in mind in response to their expressed frustration upon returning home eager to sit down and apply the skills and knowledge gained from the conference to their writing only to find their efforts thwarted with distraction after distraction. Open to anyone regardless of race, age, sex, or whether you attend or do not attend the conference, Write Time immediately follows the conference to allow motivated attendees the opportunity to leave the mundane details of your busy lives on hold for a few more days in an ambiance conducive to creativity and let the energy generated during the conference gain momentum and propel you toward achieving your goals.
The 2012 retreat is being held on Labor Day weekend, September 1-3, at the Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort & Spa, 321 N. Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33304.
The retreat schedule consists of large blocks of unplanned, unscripted time for participants to write and get feedback, shared morning and evening meals, and morning and evening group sessions that include brief check-ins and progress reports. The retreat allows ample time for individual writing and thinking, punctuated by sessions with groups and conferences with facilitators.
Interested individuals have two options for attending the retreat. The program is geared toward emerging writers who currently have a work in progress, are serious about working on a piece of writing, and are not yet or only recently published or produced. Inexperienced or beginning writers or anyone wishing to take advantage of time to simply write and enjoy the resort may opt to attend the retreat as a Universal participant. Universal participants do not attend any of the group sessions and are not required to check-in with facilitators; however, Universal participants are free to attend the retreat kick-off, pair up with writing partners, join writing groups, organize readings, and other activities.
All participants may utilize the on-site literary services, which includes manuscript review, editing, and private coaching.
The cost of the retreat program is $359, which includes shared housing at the Westin for two nights plus five meals. Universal retreat registration is $69. For more information or to download an application or registration form, visit Write Time Retreat.

Ida 57, Brooklyn Columbia Central 54, 2OT
BROOKLYN — Ida still has a shot at winning the Lenawee County Athletic Association title after a dramatic double-overtime win over Brooklyn Columbia Central.

Richnau scored 21 points, Brooke Lassey had a double-double with 13 points and 10 steals. Mallorie Duvall added 9 points and 15 rebounds. Ida is 14-3 overall.

Toward a better society.....
Find a Conversation
|Sun, 07-22-2012 - 1:48pm
I thought this was an interesting article. Something merely talked about in politics but certainly doesn't mean it's not critical to the discussion.
snip: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2010/feb/20/just-society-civic-virtues
"Today, most of our political arguments revolve around welfare and freedom – increasing economic output and respecting people's rights. But a just society requires something more: reasoning together about the meaning of the good life. Whether we're arguing about financial bailouts and bankers' bonuses, or the growing gap between rich and poor, or how to contend with the environmental costs of economic growth, questions of justice are bound up with competing notions of civic virtue and the common good.
In 2008, Barack Obama tapped Americans' hunger for a public life of larger purpose and articulated a politics of moral and spiritual aspiration. During the first year of his presidency, however, he has found it difficult to translate this politics of aspiration into governance. So, as frustration with politics builds on both sides of the Atlantic, it is worth asking what a new politics of the common good might look like. Here are four possible themes: Citizenship, sacrifice and service, The moral limits of markets, Inequality, solidarity, civic virtue, A politics of moral engagement.
If you click on the link it will further explain what each of the themes cover.

<<I saw that the "great teacher" really was great...at reading a script. When the script failed, she became a witch...not the kind of thing i wanted for my son. >>
It's really sad when a teacher is rated great because she can read a script but hasn't a clue how to teach. This is what we call education reform!
|Wed, 07-25-2012 - 10:21am
A glimpse at our future in education? Also, whose pulling the strings behind education reform....follow the money trail.....
snip: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/13/education/online-schools-score-better-on-wall-street-than-in-classrooms.html?pagewanted=all
"Nearly 60 percent of its students are behind grade level in math. Nearly 50 percent trail in reading. A third do not graduate on time. And hundreds of children, from kindergartners to seniors, withdraw within months after they enroll.
By Wall Street standards, though, Agora is a remarkable success that has helped enrich K12 Inc., the publicly traded company that manages the school. And the entire enterprise is paid for by taxpayers.
Agora is one of the largest in a portfolio of similar public schools across the country run by K12. Eight other for-profit companies also run online public elementary and high schools, enrolling a large chunk of the more than 200,000 full-time cyberpupils in the United States.
The pupils work from their homes, in some cases hundreds of miles from their teachers. There is no cafeteria, no gym and no playground. Teachers communicate with students by phone or in simulated classrooms on the Web. But while the notion of an online school evokes cutting-edge methods, much of the work is completed the old-fashioned way, with a pencil and paper while seated at a desk.
Kids mean money. Agora is expecting income of $72 million this school year, accounting for more than 10 percent of the total anticipated revenues of K12, the biggest player in the online-school business. The second-largest, Connections Education, with revenues estimated at $190 million, was bought this year by the education and publishing giant Pearson for $400 million.
The business taps into a formidable coalition of private groups and officials promoting nontraditional forms of public education. The growth of for-profit online schools, one of the more overtly commercial segments of the school choice movement, is rooted in the theory that corporate efficiencies combined with the Internet can revolutionize public education, offering high quality at reduced cost."

It's even worse when a good teacher is squelched because she refuses to teach the script. The excellent teachers at my kids' elementary school used to complain about having less and less time to work on creative things because the volume of material the kids were tested on increased each year. Pretty soon, even the good schools find themselves using scripted lessons because it nets them higher scores on state standardized tests.
|Wed, 07-25-2012 - 2:31pm
I also find this trend disturbing. I'm not convinced that some of these rather expensive programs and the people who designed them understand anything about childhood development, nevermind, much at all about best practice.
The primary grades piloted this new math program with some push back from teachers and parents to no avail. The program requires kindergarten children to fill in missing addends in a workbook by midyear. Many of the children are still learning basic number skills like number identification and how to count. Many are still in the pre-operational stage of learning and are not ready to developmentally understand missing addends. It's illogical but yet we are required to do it. Then you have children at the end of the year that become frustrated with math. It's really quite tragic. This is not a race to the top.
|Wed, 07-25-2012 - 2:42pm
Yes, it's all about test scores and we no longer can see the forest for the trees.
I know an excellent veteran teacher who retired early because she was told she could no longer teach by theme. She was an award winning educator that did an incredible job educating children using a multitude of experiences across subject matters and it was taken away. We now have cookie cutter teaching at the expense of creativity and imagination. I can't imagine what her face would look like today if she was told to read a script. She left in time before our new transformation into revolutionary teaching.

It's the McDonaldization of education. Ray Kroch's genius was turning the dinner business into a repeatable process that could be done by the lowest skilled worker. He no longer needed trained cooks. His processes enabled him to hire low paid, unskilled labor to create the same product over and over with the same results in thousands of restaurants across the country.
And we all can taste the difference between the McDonald's hamburger and an individually cooked burger made to order in a nicer restaurant.
So in order to create efficiency, we are sacrificing quality in education. Isn't there a Kurt Vonegut short story about his?
|Sat, 07-28-2012 - 1:29pm
Yes, whenever you hear conversations centered around teachers and degrees it usually is coming from some libertarian think tank because their belief is basically anyone who can raise testing scores can teach. Of course, they don't talk about other things critical for educating the next generation because it purely centers around teaching to a test which is "skill" based. Anyone can use a scripted curriculum (with fidelity-meaning not having to think) because many of these libertarian think tanks believe is it is the curriculum that is "teaching" the students and not the teacher (hence: scripted program). Rather pathetic and also very telling. Tragically, it's our entire society that will pay the price. It also goes back to the question about what public education's role is in a society. Also, another question that should be asked should be "will reading scripted programs teach all children those specific skills during a specific time period with absolute success"? Naturally, when it suits their need, they will be the first to blame the teacher when a child fails such a scripted approach. It is paradoxical thinking at its best and this is what teachers are now being assessed on and perhaps a means to be compensated. Perhaps, the best teachers that can cheat the system will be the winners. I see lots of proof that teaching to a test has brought out the worse in human behavior around the states in both charter and public schools. Again, another tragedy which may lead us once again toward moral hazard.
"In a speech at an American Enterprise Institute forum on Wednesday, the secretary of education, Are Duncan, said state and local governments should rethink their policies of giving pay raises to teachers who have master's degrees because evidence suggests that the degree alone does not improve student achievement. The remark was part of a speech about ways lawmakers can use current budget shortfalls to make public schools more productive. " http://chronicle.com/blogs/ticker/duncan-rewarding-teachers-for-masters-degrees-is-waste-of-money/28478
Depends what encompasses "student achievement" but that is the big elephant in the room for these people who are now trying to control education policies.

"I did all of the talking to everybody," she explains. "I did the CDBaby, Amazon. He trusts that I'll get the job done."
Though Davis had to raise about $7500 by selling beats to cover album costs, he doesn't doubt his remaining beat collection will provide similar funds for printing and releasing future records.
"He's done hundreds of songs, but he has thousands of beats," Rosario says.
Lately, however, Davis has taken a break from beats and has taken up the Beatles, listening to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and recording rock music.
"If I hear music and I like it, no matter what kind of music, I want to make it myself," he says.
Though he has recorded 70 rock songs, Davis doesn't feel ready to release a rock album yet (but he assures one will be released by year's end). And he still has many other goals he'd like to meet.
"I want to start my own movement just based on my own music; I want to build my own studio; I want to start my own label; I want to do everything."
Despite his rampant recording, Davis has yet to perform live.
"I'm all about visuals," he explains. "When I do eventually start doing shows, I want to make sure I have the budget to make my performance like a musical play."
In the meantime, he will continue recording, producing, and immersing himself in his music.
"I look back on all my old work and I'm disgusted by it," he says. "I don't want to look back; I'm always trying to reinvent myself."

Some of us have met at the March board, but I thought I'd re-introduce myself here.
My name is Sarah and DH and I are expecting our first baby April 7, 2013. I am a cancer survivor. Before my battle we had been trying to start a family and suffered two losses, one in the first trimester and one in the second. I had bloodwork done today which confirms that there is, in fact, a bun in my oven. Needless to say, I'm nervous about this baby and as horrible as it may sound, neither DH nor I are getting our hopes too high just yet.
Here's hoping I get to spend the next 9 months with you ladies. Best of luck to all of your for a healthy and happy pregnancy!

Greek Marinated Fried Chicken - Kotopoulo Tiganito Marinato Reviews
Epicurious | April 2010
reviews & comments (3)
This recipe is excellent. The marinade gives the chicken such a wonderful flavor - even cold the next day. I made this exactly as the recipe states, except my family is GF and I used Bob's Redmill All-Purpose flour. Also, used the peanut oil to fry the chicken pieces which made it really crispy.
I'm picky about my chicken and don't like fried foods in general. But this marinated, fried and baked recipe was one I'll make again! I used skinned chicken breasts. The meat came out flavorful, and the light flour dusting allowed the chicken to come out not too greasy.

A tabloid reporter and his son investigate a town full of children who have ritually murdered their parents.
Hang 'Em High starring Clint Eastwood, Ed Begley, Inger Stevens
Watch 'Hang 'em High' on Cinemax on xfinityTV.com
A man seeks revenge against the gang that tried to lynch him. Another decent Eastwood spaghetti western!
Based on true events, "Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here", tells the story of one of the last Western manhunts, in 1909. Willie Boy, a Native American, kills his girlfriend's father in self defense, and the two go on the run, pursued by a search posse led by Sheriff Christopher Cooper.
A rebellious Native American races to elude a bloodthirsty posse in Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here (1969) starring Robert Blake and Robert Redford.
From the long opening scene, Cooper (Clint Eastwood) is in-effect tried by Wilson (Ed Begley) and henchmen (Alan Hale Jr., Bruce Dern, et al) in his first Hollywood Western starring role, in Hang 'Em High, 1968.
The alpha and omega of Dennis Hopper's memorable if pointless appearance, as Marshal Bliss (Ben Johnson) is rounding up candidates for hanging, including Cooper (Clint Eastwood), in Hang 'Em High, 1968.
For reasons not explained, shopkeeper Rachel (Inger Stevens) gets to inspect fugitives (including Cooper, Clint Eastwood) brought to town for hanging by Bliss (Ben Johnson), Judge Fenton (Pat Hingle) observing, in Hang 'Em High, 1968.
The neighboring town of Hemingford has discovered not only the gruesome massacre of Gatlin's entire adult population, but also the orphaned children who refuse to participate in the human sacrifices. The once quiet Midwestern town is jolted into activity as a barrage of media reporters descend upon it. Among them is tabloid reporter John Garrett (Terence Knox), who is hoping to save his career by breaking the story on the bizarre murders. Traveling with Garrett is Danny (Paul Scherrer), his defiant 19-year-old son. Garrett arranges for him and Danny to stay at a local bed and breakfast, also home to the orphaned Micah (Ryan Bollman). Micah soon becomes the leader of the resurrected corn cult, and under the influence of the mythic "He Who Walks Behind the Rows," more adults die horrible, violent deaths. Sensing that Danny is at odds with his father, Micah tries to lure him into joining the cult.
The neighboring town of Hemingford has discovered not only the gruesome massacre of Gatlin's entire adult population, but also the orphaned children who refuse to participate in the human sacrifices.

Among them is tabloid reporter John Garrett (Terence Knox) who is hoping to save his career by breaking the story on the bizarre murders.
Jed Cooper (Clint Eastwood), an ex-lawman turned rancher, is moving a small herd of cattle when a group of nine men on horseback, led by Captain Wilson (Ed Begley Sr.), ride up and accuse him of having stolen the cattle and killed their owner. They refuse to believe his account, stringing him up by the neck and leaving him for dead. Lucky for him, they don't do the job right, and as Cooper dangles there, barely alive, Deputy U.S. Marshal Bliss (Ben Johnson) spots him and cuts him down. After surviving the next few days in Bliss' tumbleweed wagon with the other prisoners, he is cleared of all accusations and released by Judge Fenton (Pat Hingle). Although Cooper witnesses the hanging of the man who really murdered the owner of the cattle and took Cooper's money, he still wants revenge on the nine men who tried to hang him. Fenton insists that he leave the bringing of them to justice to his deputy marshals. Cooper and Fenton, realizing that they need each other, strike an uneasy bargain, Cooper agrees to wear a badge and bring in the men he's looking for to be tried. This task proves easier said than done as Cooper experiences a number of difficulties in capturing all nine members and bringing them to justice. In the course of his quest, Cooper also makes the acquaintance of a young woman Rachel (Inger Stevens), with her own search for justice. The two of them are drawn together, no more so than when Wilson and two of the others try to gun Cooper down in cold blood. The final confrontation between Cooper and Wilson escalates in violence to its savage, irony-laced conclusion.
In this American version of spaghetti Western, Clint Eastwood plays an innocent rancher who is about to be hung by the angry lynch mob who mistook him for a rustler and killer. Saved at the last moment by a passing marshal (Ben Johnson), Eastwood is taken before a notorious "hanging judge" (Pat Hinge). The judge deputizes Eastwood, provided that Eastwood arrest his tormenters and bring them back for trial. Eastwood is not to be bound by such rules. He seeks out the men who tried to hang him and kills them, one by one, except their leader (Ed Begley), who catches Eastwood off guard and shoots him. Recovered, Eastwood follows Begley to his ranch. There he will find Begley surrounded by henchmen and gunfighters. As for Begley, a dark, ironic fate awaits him... Also in the cast are Bruce Dern and Dennis Hopper.

Sexy Bootie
"I tried these shoes on at DSW prior to purchasing them. I usually wear a 6.5 but my foot didnt fit into it so I purchased size 7. I have a wide foot. I love this shoe! The picture doesnt do it justice. Its absolutely hot!! I went dancing in them. Thats where I had some trouble because this shoe does not offer a lot of support around the ankles. However, I had no problem with heel height or it hurting my feet."

Verizon Wireless may end unlimited data plans this summer
The Verizon iPhone launched with an unlimited data plan, but that all-you-can-eat option may be disappearing this summer. During the Reuters Global Summit, Verizon chief Financial Officer Fran Shammo hinted that the carrier's unlimited data plans would be replaced by a mega-data plan.
These new data plans would offer data in the same way a family share plan handles voice minutes. A subscriber would buy a tiered data plan whose GB allotment could be shared by multiple devices. Shammo did not mention pricing or even when these mega-plans would roll out. He said these plans were "a logical progression" for the carrier. Such a plan would make sense for someone with a Verizon iPhone and a 3G iPad, as long as the pricing is kept in check.
No worries if you are already on an unlimited data plan, you will be able to keep your plan as long as you keep your iPhone. If you switch to another phone or buy a new phone, then you will have to upgrade to these new plans.

Following the Gonzaga University women's basketball team's eighth straight West Coast Conference title victory, the individual accolades started flowing in. Read on to find out which of the Zags made the All-West Coast Conference team and what's in store this week for Washington State, Eastern Washington and Idaho this week.
It was the final West Coast Conference regular-season contest for the No. 25 Gonzaga women's basketball team on Saturday afternoon, and in fighting for outright ownership of the title they had won for the previous seven years against a team that defeated them by 30 points earlier this month, the Bulldogs scored a 77-60 win over Brigham Young to capture their eighth consecutive WCC championship in front of a sold-out crowd of 6,000 at the McCarthey Athletic Center.
You can read my game story here.
The Gonzaga women shook off a slow start and pushed ahead in the second half to score a 66-40 victory over Pepperdine on Saturday afternoon. You can read about the game here.
Less than an hour until the Gonzaga women's basketball team and Pepperdine Waves (12-12, 7-6 WCC) tip-off at the Kennel. One piece of good news, aside from the Bulldogs' 87-55 win over Santa Clara on Thursday, was last-place San Francisco's victory over BYU this week - leaving the Bulldogs in sole possession of first place in the WCC standings.
Some quick hits between the Bulldogs and Waves:

Imuran''s side effects are to strong for me I have not seen any stop in my symptoms while on Imuran.
The side effects really bother me at higher doses. I have shallow breathing, complicated by asthma. My chest pounds and I get really shakey like I am having an anxiety attack.
I become very tired and continue getting weaker each time I increase my dose.
I start out at 50 mg.'s and noticed the side effects listed above. after six weeks at that level my body seemed to tollerate Imuran better. Dr. suggested increase dose 25 mg. per week. I did till I hit 150 mg.'s and had to much trouble breathing, and lost all energy.
Dr. said quit Imuran for a while and I did. I now am back on 50 mg. daily and am ready to go back up to 75 mg.'s.
I am preparing to begin Remicade IV therapy and Dr. said having Imuran in my system will benefit my next step of treatment with Remicade.
I have Ulcerative Colitus and this did not help stop the bleeding at the low doses I was on.

What we are really thinking about...
Everyone talks about 'working hard.' Every company touts their work ethic. But what does that mean, anyway? Hard work is different for every one. And frankly, we don't care if you 'work hard' -- we want you to work on what you're passionate about. What is it that makes you want to contribute to a team, and have fun doing it? If you love to design and write intelligent code, this might be the place for you. What matters to us is if it's a good fit. If you love what you do when you're here, we'll both get the best out of the relationship.
Because, hey. We're all lazy, when it comes down to it, and we want to get back to spending time with our loved ones. (We do, too.)

Mark Zuckerberg was asked about the movie social network "interesting". The purpose of the show was checking Mark Zuckerberg's sense of humor. and he was simply brilliant. Mark had a short offstage time with Executive Producer Lorne Michaels and live chat with Eisenberg and Samberg.

Posts tagged: Senate Budget Committee
The Washington Post has posted a 12-page memo from U.S. Sen. Patty Murray outlining her positions on writing a budget for 2014.
Murray, D-Wash., argues that deficit reduction has so far focused almost entirely on cuts and not enough on "revenue" — tax increases.
"We need to make sure any budget deal we make is balanced, fair for the middle class, and calls on the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share," Murray wrote in her letter introcuding the memo.
Murray, who was in Spokane last week highlighting job programs, is the new chairwoman of the Senate Budget Committee.
The memo and Ezra Klein's analysis is worth a glance and is a good outline for the Democrats' position and interal battles in the upcoming budget showdown brewing in Congress.
Patty Murray will be the Senate's chief budget writer next year when Congress convenes for its new session.
The Washington Democrat announced today she will seek the chairmanship of the Senate Budget Committee, a position that will become open at the end of the year with the retirement of Sen. Kent Conrad of North Dakota. Although the position won't become official until the new Congress meets, Democrats will hold a 55-45 majority in the chamber so the result is a foregone conclusion.
The committee also considers the nation's economic policy and the budgetary impact of "everything we do and everything wie fight on," Murray said. She hopes to expand the discussions of the committee, which in recent years have focused on debt and deficits, to consider the other side of the budget: the nation's spending priorities and the investments it should make.
"It gives me a really good place to fight for the priorities of Washington state," she said, such as the cleanup of waste at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation, better transportation systems, military and veterans issues and improved job training for health care and aerospace workers.

Nine Quarter City
|Issue Date:
|My Design project is a music store/performance area. I chose this because Madrid is a very culturally diverse city and so I wanted to express some of this in the form of music. By having a music store as well as performance areas, not only is the art of music encouraged, but sharing the creations of music is also promoted. The cladding of the building is made of bronze and has a very curvy look. This is to not only imitate the shape of a musical instrument but also represents the flow and waves of music. The shape also provides for a balcony for the 1st and 2nd floor of the music store. The building is made up two areas, the store and the performance areas. The store component has three levels which are accessed through a stairwell. Similarly there are three performance areas. The first performance space is on the ground floor and is accessible from the entrance without entering the store itself. This is because this performance area is more geared towards formal musical performances and so any night time performances have easy access On the first floor up and past the store area, there is a courtyard. This is the second performance space which allows for people to try out instruments (from the store racks) and perhaps share the music with any other musicians. The third performance space is a rooftop stage. This is also on the first floor and the stage itself overlooks the storefront. This space is designed to be the most expressive out of the three as performers would not only share music for those seated on that floor, but also anyone who passes by on street level. The stage can also be seen from balconies from the 2nd floor.

The UK Ministry Of Defence Uses IBM Technology To Create Smarter, Greener Buildings
For instance, with these new capabilities DIO can assess if buildings or bases are not being used at full capacity. They can then decide to consolidate resources to either free up space for other uses or eliminate the cost from their balance sheets.
The IBM solution will also enable processes to be streamlined across the MoD's diverse organization by linking with the systems used by DIO's Next Generation Estate Contracts team. This will reduce reliance on multiple outdated systems, and greatly speed up and improve the flow of information between the organization and its industrial partners. Overall, this will help to support an improved, more agile and strategic management of its estate.
"Having the right data at the right time is essential for DIO," said Dave Bartlett, vice president, Smarter Physical Infrastructure, IBM. "IBM's analytics and smarter buildings software will help provide a new level of intelligence to how the MoD is managing its global real estate portfolio."
The upgraded system will be launched in a number of capability releases through April 2014. These are based on analysis of future business needs, the current DIO technology landscape and engagement with industry through procurement.IBM's strategy is to seamlessly integrate technology into the world around us to drive greater intelligence on this Smarter Planet. The world around us is changing, and technology is no longer a siloed area, but a fundamental element to the growth and success of every business. Everything from buildings, to transportation systems, manufacturing, healthcare and to cities themselves are becoming smarter. Launched in 2008, IBM has been focused on driving this next era of information technology and its impact on business and society. For additional information on DIO, visit: www.mod.uk/dio.

New Boston Children's Hospital Program Offers Holistic Approach To Treat The Female Athlete
Focuses on female-specific treatment for injury prevention, exercise habits and hormonal balance
BOSTON, April 3, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Boston Children's Hospital announces the Female Athlete Program, co-directed by Kathryn Ackerman, MD, MPH and Martha Murray, MD, both of the Sports Medicine Division. One of the only programs in the country of its kind, the Female Athlete Program combines sports medicine specialties to help pediatric and adult female athletes stay as healthy as possible while competing.
Supported by a team of a world-class sports medicine physicians, the program offers multi-disciplinary care and stands out for its specialized treatment and research on the Female Athlete Triad (the interrelationship between bone health, nutrition and menstrual cycles). The team has also conducted landmark research on knee pain and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, which are five to eight times more prevalent in girls.
"Having a program that fully understands the culture of female athletic competition as well as the intricacies of the female musculoskeletal and hormonal systems is paramount," says Ackerman. "We want female athletes to be as healthy as possible while still enhancing their competitive performance."In the last 40 years, the number of girls competing in high school sports increased from fewer than 295,000 to nearly 3.2 million, and more women are paying collegiate sports than ever before. The need for a program with customized care for female athletes is crucial, and the Female Athlete Program centers on the specific health issues make female athletes unique, such as:
- Interrelationship of nutrition, menstrual cycles and bone health
- concussion and ACL injury prevention and treatment
- adolescent sports health
- metabolic assessment for athletic performance
- pregnancy and exercise safety
