- Color: Cream Or Ivory
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Male

Skye's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with cats.
Skye is a rescued male kitten that needs a loving home. His mom was rescued only 12 hours before he and his 6 littermates were born. His mom is very old and needed help with the birth as well as caring for her kittens, so Skye and his littermates were also bottle fed. He is extremely social and friendly since he has been with people from birth. He has tested negative for FELV/FIV, he is neutered and vaccinated. If you would like to meet Skye, please call Sharon at 631 987 8152.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Skye, a Speonk Colorpoint Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Colorpoint Shorthair for sale in Speonk, or seeking a Colorpoint Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Speonk.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Speonk already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Speonk breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Colorpoint Shorthair breeders who help with Colorpoint Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Speonk paves the way for another one to be saved.

It may be a serious worry to many fashionistas to find a gray hair among their luxurious locks, but somehow the Marie Claire Turkey 'Zit Luks' pictorial makes a full head of white hair look like the coolest haute couture companion.
The editorial featuring model Iza Olak and photographed by lens-lover Umit Savaci is a simple and stunning compilation of stark snaps. The clothing sported by Olak is a mix of clean and crisp pieces by Thierry Mugler, Topshop, Vakkorama, Phillip Lim and a multitude of other mega-designers showcasing their black and white contrasting collections.
The Marie Claire Turkey Zit Luks editorial will make you mad for mod monochromatic and ease you into the idea that white-washed wearables (and coifs!) are wonderful.

1 Paul, an apostle (not from men, neither through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead), | 1 Paul, an apostle--sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead-- |
2 and all the brothers who are with me, to the assemblies of Galatia: | 2 and all the brothers with me, To the churches in Galatia: |
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, | 3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, |
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father -- | 4 who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, |
5 to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. | 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. |
6 I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different gospel; | 6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel-- |
7 and there isn't another gospel. Only there are some who trouble you, and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. | 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. |
8 But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any gospel other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed. | 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned! |
9 As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any gospel other than that which you received, let him be cursed. | 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned! |
10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn't be a servant of Christ. | 10 Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ. |
11 But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the gospel which was preached by me, that it is not according to man. | 11 I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I preached is not something that man made up. |
12 For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ. | 12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ. |
13 For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God, and ravaged it. | 13 For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it. |
14 I advanced in the Jews' religion beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers. | 14 I was advancing in Judaism beyond many Jews of my own age and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers. |
15 But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me through his grace, | 15 But when God, who set me apart from birth and called me by his grace, was pleased |
16 to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I didn't immediately confer with flesh and blood, | 16 to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not consult any man, |
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus. | 17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went immediately into Arabia and later returned to Damascus. |
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days. | 18 Then after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to get acquainted with Peter and stayed with him fifteen days. |
19 But of the other apostles I saw no one, except James, the Lord's brother. | 19 I saw none of the other apostles--only James, the Lord's brother. |
20 Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I'm not lying. | 20 I assure you before God that what I am writing you is no lie. |
21 Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia. | 21 Later I went to Syria and Cilicia. |
22 I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in Christ, | 22 I was personally unknown to the churches of Judea that are in Christ. |
23 but they only heard: "He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy." | 23 They only heard the report: "The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy." |

OK......I'm planning on putting ABCs on wooden blocks. Will use one letter per block and three pictures that match that letter. I will paint and then decoupage the letter and pictures. I need a source for uniform letters and animals, objects, etc. That means 78 pictures of animals and/or objects. My blocks are 2 1/4 in square. Haven't looked in the "School/Teacher" stores I see. They might have something like this. Any ideas???? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I wonder if you did a google search for baby abc blocks if something wouldn't show up. I bet it would then you could print off. |
Tried that......there are many wooden blocks to sell and I can see some as examples. I might try kiddie books in the library. I just need them all to be a consistent size. Thanks |

My name is Monika!
Facts about Monika
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray, Blue Or Silver Tabby
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Monika's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Monika and Bond were TNRed last year by some of our volunteers around 47th and Cottage Grove. They were too sweet to leave outside, so we've brought them in and they are doing well and adjusting to the cushie indoor life. These two are probably about nine months old and littermates. They are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. They will keep each other happy, healthy, and occupied for life!
Fostermom writes "They are very sweet cats. Bond is a bit on the shy side but enjoys petting and especially cheek and tummy rubs. They are litter trained, use a scratching post, and enjoy playing with their toys. They are quiet and well behaved. They like catnip. They enjoy the company of other cats. One fun fact about Bond is that on each paw, he has some pink pads and some grey ones."

2nd Annual Conference on Ultrasound in Anatomy and Physiology Education
Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) in Norfolk, Virginia, will host the second annual Conference on Ultrasound in Anatomy and Physiology Education on March 21-22, 2014.
Sponsored by the Society of Ultrasound in Medical Education (SUSME), the conference is intended for anatomy and physiology educators interested in learning about ultrasound and its value in a medical and health professions curriculum. (The first conference was in the spring of 2013, hosted by the University of South Carolina School of Medicine.)
With the rapid advances in ultrasound technology and the growing evidence of ultrasound as an effective teaching and point-of-care clinical tool, schools across the country are moving to ensure that this technology is used in the best possible fashion for learners and patients alike. Below is an example of a normal Parasternal Long Axis (PLA) view of the heart. Echocardiography helps students better understand cardiac anatomy and physiology.
Through a combination of presentations and hands-on labs, the Conference on Ultrasound in Anatomy and Physiology Education provides unique learning opportunities to help any educational institution maximize its ultrasound education program.
Why you should attend
The advent of high-resolution, low-cost ultrasound has enabled this technique to become a literal lifesaver in a number of clinical disciplines ranging from emergency medicine and cardiology through to family medicine and ophthalmology.
Progressive medical educators have realized the need to incorporate ultrasound in their medical school curriculums. In addition to its clinical utility, ultrasound can also be used as a powerful teaching tool in basic science education intimately linking concepts and clinic, especially in anatomy and physiology.
We are bringing together leading ultrasound educators and clinicians from around the globe to provide both fundamental and advanced concepts regarding the developmental, technical, and operational aspects of ultrasound and its integration into your evolving medical curriculum. If you are contemplating, planning, or implementing ultrasound into your educational curriculum, you will gain information, approaches and contacts to achieve this goal by attending the conference.
The venue
The conference will be hosted by Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) at its beautiful campus in Norfolk, VA. Attendees can stay at the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside hotel, which overlooks the scenic downtown vista. Both EVMS and the hotel are within walking distance of many fine restaurants, shopping malls, boutiques, galleries and the Chrysler and the Nauticus museums. Free transportation from the Sheraton to the EVMS campus and conference special events will be provided. Both the hotel and EVMS are only about 15 minutes from the Norfolk International airport (ORF).
EVMS is home to the Jones Institute for Reproductive Medicine, internationally known as America's first in vitro fertilization (IVF) clinic and the facilitator of America's first IVF baby.
Dr. Alfred Abuhamad, immediate Past President of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) and a featured conference speaker, is a leader in global Fetal Maternal Medicine, prenatal diagnostic ultrasound and ultrasound education. In the field of echocardiology, Dr. Alex Levitov is a world leader in bedside ultrasound and pulmonology, a critical care medicine specialist and the author of several major clinical ultrasound textbooks.
EVMS is also home to the Theresa A. Thomas Professional Skills Teaching and Assessment Center, one of the first and most robust Standardized Patient (SP) programs in the world. More recently, EVMS has constructed Lester Hall, a building that has a state-of-the-art medical education and simulation center that continues to make a local and global impact in the world of medical simulation.
In, 2012, after a year of planning, EVMS, supported by the administration and an equipment grant from GE's hand-held ultrasound division, initiated a fully integrated ultrasound curriculum designed to span all four years of medical school.
The program's format
We have designed a single plenary format with several small group experiences that will allow sufficient time for discussion, questions and hands-on experiences in a comfortable surrounding. During the program we will examine the fundamental issues facing those currently in the process, or planning to deliver, a sustainable undergraduate medical curriculum incorporating ultrasound.
For those with an established ultrasound curriculum, we will offer the chance to both learn new techniques and educational approaches and to network with faculty from new and existing ultrasound programs to find new ways to maintain and extend ultrasound curricular development. Vendors will be present to display and demonstrate current and emerging technologies and tools to assist you in your educational mission.
Leaders in ultrasound from multiple disciplines, including Emergency Medicine, Radiology, Critical Care Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Anatomy, Pathology & Physiology, Clinical Ultrasonography and Medical Simulation, will provide attendees with an in-depth look at the many facets of ultrasound education, including: assessment tools, simulators, phantoms, and approaches to enlist clinical and foundational sciences educators, administrators and other institutional experts in facilitating and optimizing the development and delivery of an ultrasound curriculum.

Metropolia of the
Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church
of North & South America
Óęđŕżíńüęîż Ŕâňîęĺôŕëüíîż Ďđŕâîńëŕâíîż Öĺđęâč
â ŃŘŔ
Article 1- Preamble and Jurisdiction
The Metropolia of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church of North & South America ("Metropolia"), with headquarters located in the cities of New York, New York and Cleveland, Ohio, U.S.A. and Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, is an self-governing church
sui ijuris
in spiritual communion with the mother church of Ukraine and the Kyiv Patriarchate.
The Metropolia was established in order to preserve the particular identity, cultural and spiritual heritage of Ukrainian Orthodox Christians and is Autocephalous (independent) in all matters of its life and government, and its rights are equal with those of the other Autocephalous Orthodox Churches.
The Metropolia, being Sobornopravna, is governed by the Holy Scriptures, Ukrainian Orthodox tradition and the Church Sobor, called by the Primate and consisting of delegations of the clergy and laity.
The Metropolia may embrace within its spiritual and temporal administration other Christian Dioceses and Parishes that have voluntarily submitted to its jurisdiction and which acknowledge the dignity of the Patriarchal See of Kyiv and All Rus-Ukraine and the Primate of the Metropolia.
The Metropolia serves Ukrainian Orthodox Christians in the United States of America, throughout North and South America and in Western Europe and Africa.
Article 2 - Mission of the Metropolia
The mission of the Metropolia is to proclaim the Gospel of Christ, to teach and spread the Orthodox Christian faith, to vitalize, cultivate and guide the life of the Church in the Diaspora, according to the Orthodox Christian faith and tradition. The Metropolia sanctifies the faithful through worship, the divine liturgy and the sacraments, enhancing and edifying the spiritual and ethical life of the faithful an accordance with the Holy Scriptures, the Sacred Tradition, the doctrines and canons of the ecumenical and local councils, the canons of the Holy Apostles and Fathers of the Church and all other councils recognized by the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church.
The Metropolia serves as a beacon of witness of the message of Christ to all persons, through divine worship, preaching, and living the Orthodox Christian faith. As to its intra-Orthodox, intra-Christian and inter-religious activities, the Metropolia shall be guided by the positions and guidelines established by the hierarchy, in cooperation with the Metropolitan Council and ultimately, the Church Sobor.
Article 3 - Organization of the Metropolia
The Metropolia consists of all entities of the UAOC currently under its jurisdiction, including eparchies, exarchates and vicariates. The See of the Primate of the Metropolia is designated as New York, New York, according with the prestige, centrality and cosmopolitan nature of this primatial city. The Primate of the Metropoila is by the nature of his position, the Archbishop of New York. This is in continuity with the history of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church of the U.S.A.
The Archeparchy of Cleveland is comprised of parishes, monasteries and institutions in the continental United States, Central and South America, under the jurisdiction of the Eparchial Bishop of that See, who functions as the main vehicle of Ordinary jurisdiction in the Archeparchy.
The Archeparchy of Cleveland is divided into three Deaneries or Protopresbyteretes, namely, the Eastern, the Central and the Western Deaneries. These subdivisions of the Archeparchy are led by Deans who assist the Eparchial Bishop in matters of administration and also serve as a means of disseminating important information and announcements, as directed by the Primate or Eparchial Bishop.
The Archeparchy of Cleveland and its Ordinary are further assisted by the ministry of the Auxiliary Bishop, whose presence on the West Coast of the United States serves to assist clergy and faithful in those far reaching areas of the country, should the need or occasion arise. This is accomplished though the office of the Western Vicariate or more properly in canonical terms, Syncellete, which allows the Auxiliary Bishop to, at the direction of the Primate or Eparchial Bishop, to function in matters usually reserved for the Ordinary and as delineated in the Code of Canon Law of the Eastern Churches.
The Eparchy of Canada is comprised of parishes, monasteries and institutions in the territory of the country of Canada, with its eparchial See located at Mississauga, Ontario. It is divided into two Deaneries or Protopresbyteretes, one in the Eastern and another in the Western territories of the country.
The Eparchy of Western Europe with its See at Toulon, France administers the needs of the faithful in those countries of the European Continent, including France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Great Britain and Italy, with missions also in Cuba and Africa.
The Exarchate of Germany, with its See in Brandenburg (Berlin), Germany, is an apostolic administration that serves the needs of the faithful living in that region where many Ukrainians first migrated after the Second World War.
Article 4 - Administration of the Metropolia
Comprised of the Metropolitan/Primate as President, the Co-adjutor Archbishop as Vice-President and the other Bishops as its members, the Council of Hierarchs or Holy Synod constitutes the highest ecclesiastical administrative authority of the Metropolia. The Metropolitan/Primate also has the distinction of "Major-Archbishop" which further describes his role as head of a self-governing church.

8. Cultivates and strengthens the bond of unity between the Metropolia and the Kyiv Patriarchate.
9. Carries out and implements the provisions of this Charter.
Article 7 - Responsibilities and Rights of the Eparchial Bishops
Each Eparchial Bishop within his Eparchy has the rights and responsibilities of a Bishop in accordance with the canons and established practices of the church, including the exclusive right to occupy the throne behind the altar and to preside over the Eucharist. Among the rights and responsibilities of an Eparchial Bishop are to: be a member of the Eparchial Synod and participate in its work; consecrate and sanctify for worship churches and chapels; administer his Eparchy in an orderly, harmonious and fiscally responsible manner for the common good; convene and preside over the Spiritual Court of First Instance in his Eparchy; issue permits for the celebration of the sacrament of marriage and decrees of ecclesiastical divorce; distribute to the priests the Holy Chrism (Myro) and, ordains priests, deacons and minor orders in his Eparchy.

In the event an Eparchial See becomes vacant, the Eparchial Consulters, in consultation with the Metropolitan/Primate, chose a priest of the Eparchy to serve as Apostolic Administrator of that particular Eparchy, who serves until the successor is elected. The Metropolitan/Primate or another bishop designated by him, shall see to any episcopal needs within the vacant Eparchy, until the new Eparchial Bishop takes canonical possession of the Eparchy.
Addendum to Article 12
As agreed upon at the 1998 Sobor of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church Sobornopravna, held at the Cathedral of SS. Boris and Gleb in Cleveland, the current office of Metropolitan and Primate held by Metropolitan Stephan Petrovich shall be for life or until such time that he, by his own free will retires. This Sobor, consisted of clergy and lay delegates and elected Metropolitan Stephan to the position of Primate.
At such time of the death or voluntary retirement of Metropolitan Stephan Petrovich, the Coadjutor Metropolitan Archbishop Michael J. Champion will take up the position of Primate of the Metropolia, as also agreed upon at the Sobor of 1998 in Cleveland. There will be no vacancy in the Metropolitan See, since Archbishop Michael will succeed immediately, as provided for by the 1998 Sobor.

The historical election of a future Primate of the Metropolia shall also take place according to the ideals of Soborpravnist, i.e.: election involving both clergy and laity.
Candidates for the offices of Primate and Bishop must be Ukrainian by heritage and fluent in both Ukrainian and English. Only candidates of Ukrainian ancestry shall become bishops within the Metropolia. In the event that a candidate cannot be found in the United States, the Metropolitan Council will turn to our Motherland, Ukraine to seek a candidate for the episcopacy.
Article 13 - Election of the Primate
The election of the Primate is the right of the Church Sobor under the guidance of the Council of Hierarchs and the Metropolitan Council as follows:
Immediately following the vacancy of the office of the Primate, the Apostolic Administrator shall convene the Council of Hierarchs for the purpose of establishing the Metropolitan list of those who are eligible for the office of Primate. This list is submitted to the Metropolitan Council. Following receipt of the approved list from the Metropolitan Council by the Council of Hierarchs, the advice of the Consulters is requested.
Forty (40) days following the vacancy, the Apostolic Administrator re-convenes the Metropolitan Council for the purpose of nominating three (3) persons for election to the office of Primate from the list of those eligible.
The Council of Hierarchs, led by the Apostolic Administrator, will issue the call for an extraordinary Church Sobor, which will elect the new Primate. The Sobor will be held within ninety (90) days from the completion of the list of the three nominees in accordance with the canons of the church.
A nominee for the office of the Primate shall be a person of deep faith, a Ukrainian Orthodox Christian, a graduate of an academically recognized or accredited School of Theology, have a fluent knowledge of spoken and written English and Ukrainian, have proven ability in administration and pastoral work, be fully aware of ecclesiastical affairs of the Metropolia and be totally committed to the preservation of unity within the Metropolia as well as to the bond of spiritual communion with the Kyiv Patriarchate. In addition, he shall not be less than thirty-five (35) years of age and have a period of service in the Metropolia of not less than ten (10) years.
Those fulfilling the above conditions are candidates and are included in the catalogue of those eligible, regardless of the place of residence during the time of the election.
The process of election shall take place in accordance with the rules and norms set forth by the Metropolitan Council and previous Sobors.

From the list of three (3) nominees thus established, an extraordinary Eparchial Convocation, called by the Apostolic Administrator and presided over by the Metropolitan/Primate together with the Council of Hierarchs, will elect the new Eparchial Bishop. A nominee for the office of Eparchial Bishop shall be a person of deep faith, a Ukrainian Orthodox Christian, a graduate of an academically recognized or accredited School of Theology, have a fluent knowledge of spoken and written English and Ukrainian and have a proven ability in administration and pastoral work.
The Eparchial Convocation shall consist of the Council of Hierarchs of the Metropolia, the Apostolic Administrator of the vacant See, the College of Consulters of that particular Eparchy, clergy delegates elected by them, and clergy and lay delegates chosen and elected by the respective parishes of that Eparchy.
In addition, the nominee shall not be less than thirty-five (35) years of age, and have had a period of preferably ten years, but not less than five (5) years of service in the Metropolia.

The election of an Auxiliary Bishop is the competence of the Council of Hierarchs and is accomplished according to the following order:
In consultation with the Metropolitan Council, the Council of Hierarchs shall establish the list of eligible persons serving the Metropolia for the position of Auxiliary Bishop.

The magazine that got General McChrystal fired comes at us next month with another Obama cover, this one bearing a pic of a stern and suited president, hands in pockets, behind the cover line, "Obama Fights Back—The Rolling Stone Interview."
But you won't have to wait for the magazine's November edition to read the conversation between Jann Wenner, Eric Bates and the president inside; the folks at Rolling Stone published the interview this morning, clearly sensing they were on to something good.
They were right. It's a long and meaty thing—they got an hour and fifteen minutes with the president in the Oval Office—and covers everything from Afghanistan to BP to Goldman Sachs to filibusters to the midterms, and of course, includes the requisite "What's on your iPod?" question. One passage likely to set the liberal blogosphere ablaze is this little spiel from the president, who returned to the Oval Office after leaving the interview to volunteer a few extra thoughts:
One closing remark that I want to make: It is inexcusable for any Democrat or progressive right now to stand on the sidelines in this midterm election. There may be complaints about us not having gotten certain things done, not fast enough, making certain legislative compromises. But right now, we've got a choice between a Republican Party that has moved to the right of George Bush and is looking to lock in the same policies that got us into these disasters in the first place, versus an administration that, with some admitted warts, has been the most successful administration in a generation in moving progressive agendas forward.
The idea that we've got a lack of enthusiasm in the Democratic base, that people are sitting on their hands complaining, is just irresponsible.
Coupled with the Vice President's comment yesterday about "whining" liberals, we should expect some pushback today.
The media doesn't play a big part in Wanner and Bates's line of questioning, but the president does offer a few choice words on our dear profession—few of them overly adulatory. Asked, inevitably, what he thinks of Fox News, Obama demonstrates some solid historical knowledge of the press:
[Laughs] Look, as president, I swore to uphold the Constitution, and part of that Constitution is a free press. We've got a tradition in this country of a press that oftentimes is opinionated. The golden age of an objective press was a pretty narrow span of time in our history. Before that, you had folks like Hearst who used their newspapers very intentionally to promote their viewpoints. I think Fox is part of that tradition — it is part of the tradition that has a very clear, undeniable point of view. It's a point of view that I disagree with. It's a point of view that I think is ultimately destructive for the long-term growth of a country that has a vibrant middle class and is competitive in the world. But as an economic enterprise, it's been wildly successful. And I suspect that if you ask Mr. Murdoch what his number-one concern is, it's that Fox is very successful.
He also pays lip service to the Huffington Post and Rolling Stone itself when asked about frustration in his base:
I could have had a knock-down, drag-out fight on the public option that might have energized you and The Huffington Post, and we would not have health care legislation now. I could have taken certain positions on aspects of the financial regulatory bill, where we got 90 percent of what we set out to get, and I could have held out for that last 10 percent, and we wouldn't have a bill. You've got to make a set of decisions in terms of "What are we trying to do here? Are we trying to just keep everybody ginned up for the next election, or at some point do you try to win elections because you're actually trying to govern?" I made a decision early on in my presidency that if I had an opportunity to do things that would make a difference for years to come, I'm going to go ahead and take it.

Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Nicholas!
Facts about Nicholas
- Breed: Miniature Poodle
- Color: White
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Nicholas's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, purebred, and up to date with shots.
Nicholas is a super sweet, gentle soul who wants a lap to lay on. Despite his initial jittery reaction to new things, he is totally trusting to anyone who is giving him loving attention.
We really appreciate your wanting to give a shelter animal a home and encourage you to search for just the right pet.
FOR APPLICATION, please visit http://humanesocietyny.org/adoptions/ and download then email it to firstname.lastname@example.com, fax it to (212) 752-2803 or bring it in to the adoption center.
The Humane Society is a no-kill shelter. Our on-site clinic and staff of skilled Veterinarians looks after the health and well-being of every animal here. We offer FREE Vet care for the first 3 weeks after adoption. We also have a great adoption matchmaker who will gladly take your profile and match you or your pet with just the right cat or dog companion. Please feel free to submit your application!

Each and every animal here is very special to us. We are dedicated to finding each one just the right home. So for some cats and dogs, that means a much longer stay - as sometimes they are not as outgoing, pretty or have as perfect manners as they could. And because we don't "dispose" of them for this, our cost for keeping them healthy and becoming better companions is high.
Our one and only location is:
306 East 59th Street (between 1st & 2nd Avenue) in Manhattan.
Our adoption hours are 7 days a week, 10:30AM - 4:00PM.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Nicholas, a New York Miniature Poodle dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Miniature Poodle for sale in New York, or seeking a Miniature Poodle dog from a breeder in New York.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in New York already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a New York breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Miniature Poodle breeders who help with Miniature Poodle rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in New York paves the way for another one to be saved.

Meet a Connector: Nick in Atlanta, Georgia
If there's one thing Nick Reynolds learned from his time in Peace Corps Ukraine, it's this: meeting in-person is always a good idea.
"In Ukraine, you only knew something was definitely going to happen when you had that face-to-face meeting. When you looked that other person in the eye and said, 'This is how it's going to happen, this is what we're going to do, right?' And if they said 'yes,' you could count on it," he says.
As the Community Manager for the Idealist Atlanta local page and a member of the Atlanta Connector Team, Nick has transferred that lesson to meeting in person with local organizations to see what they're up to and share more about how Idealist can support their work.
His first step is always encouraging employees to create an Idealist profile if they haven't done so already. And nine times out of ten, they're likely to pop up on the site if he's had the opportunity to shake their hand.
He also plants himself at a local cafe each Monday for anyone—organizations, Idealist community members, Connectors—to chat.
"I consider myself to be an involved person. If there's an opportunity to serve and I can't come up with a reason not to do it, I'm going to wind up doing it," he says.
Nick hopes the Idealist Network will help make more in-person connections in Atlanta that will lead to greater resource-sharing among organizations and more people getting involved in the causes they believe in. Living in the birthplace of the civil rights movement, he'd be hard pressed not to.
"[Atlanta] is a beacon of activism," he says. "You can't drive through the city without passing something that reminds you that the potential for positive change is here if you just get involved and engaged."
Do you live in the Atlanta area? Join Nick! Not in Atlanta? Look for a Connector Team near you.

Saturday, November 15, 2003 - Page updated at 12:00 A.M. Industry tax breaks fill GOP energy bill By Seth Borenstein and Sumana Chatterjee
WASHINGTON Congressional leaders yesterday forged a national energy bill that contains tens of billions of dollars worth of tax breaks and subsidies to oil, gas, coal and nuclear industries while emphasizing production over conservation. A cornerstone of President Bush's energy policy the controversial drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge was eliminated because of a lack of support in the Senate. Also missing is the oil industry's desire to test fo oil and natural gas along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Details of the legislation remain under wraps to all but a handful of Republican lawmakers and their aides, who promised to make it public today. Those who wrote the bill, however, acknowledged the details may not look good. "We know that as soon as you start reading the language, we're duck soup," said Senate Energy Committee Chairman Pete Domenici, R-N.M., one of the bill's two major authors.
Next it will go to the full House, which is expected to pass the bill easily, and the Senate, which is not. In the closely divided Senate, many Democrats who complain that the bill favors production over conservation have hinted at trying to block it with a filibuster. They could be joined by Republicans displeased with the bill's cost up to $100 billion over 10 years and a provision that would limit the liability of manufacturers of a fuel additive blamed for contaminating water supplies from California to New Hampshire. Congress has struggled for years to come up with a national energy bill. This one reflects Bush's general philosophy to boost domestic production, but the overall costs are substantially higher than what the administration sought. Lobbyists say there are at least $20 billion in tax breaks for the oil, gas and coal industries in the new bill. The size of the tax breaks may be a problem because the Senate allowed for only $16 billion worth of energy tax cuts in its annual budget while Bush wanted only $8 billion. With subsidies, loan guarantees and direct spending, the total cost of the bill is well past $100 billion. "It's an Iranian bazaar, not an energy bill. It's a leave-no-lobbyist-behind bill," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. He vowed to oppose the measure. Industry lobbyists and some Republicans worry Democrats will filibuster to stop the bill. "The comprehensive energy plan may not be the sexiest or most tangible legislation we pass this year, but there are few other issues that are more critical to job creation, our security, and our quality of life," said House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas. Over the years, there have been several energy problems, but it was the Northeast blackout in August that prompted legislators to rewrite decades-old laws governing electrical transmission, power-company ownership, reliability standards and connection costs for new power plants. House Energy Committee Chairman Billy Tauzin, R-La., said the new bill would have some kind of federal, but still voluntary, oversight for new reliability standards. While drilling for oil in the Arctic refuge is out, Congress would give the industry a loan guarantee, estimated at $18 billion, to build a natural-gas pipeline from Alaska to Chicago, Domenici said. Environmentalists also said the bill would increase drilling for oil and natural gas on public land in Western states. The energy bill won't mandate an increase in car-gasoline mileage as environmentalists and many lawmakers wanted, Domenici said. But it will give the makers of a gas additive that taints water supplies protection from multimillion-dollar lawsuits, he said. Industry lobbyists said the bill adds $800 million to clean up tainted water. To encourage farm-state Democratic support, the energy deal would eventually nearly double the amount of ethanol used in gasoline to 5 billion gallons. There also is language allowing some smoggy areas, such as the Dallas-Fort Worth region, more time before they have to clean up their air, contrary to federal court orders that ban such extensions. Environmentalists complain this provision undermines the Clean Air Act. Republicans say the bill would stimulate domestic energy production and create 1 million jobs. "This is, in essence, a jobs bill," Tauzin said at a news conference. "This bill will begin the process of stopping the erosion of jobs in our economy." Democrats were skeptical about the number of jobs promised and the bill. "This is a grab-bag of goodies for special interests at a time when we desperately need a comprehensive energy policy to deal with the very real energy problems our nation faces," said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y. Material from The Washington Post is included in this report.

Bacteria are capable of forming inorganic crystals either intracellularly or extracellularly. Calcite (calcium carbonate) precipitation is a well-known example of extracellular bacterial biomineralization. Certain species of marine moderately halophilic bacteria have been shown to precipitate minerals in water supplemented with artificial marine salt media and differing Mg2+:Ca2+ concentration ratios. Formation of fluorescent calcite associated with specific catalysis by the thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus thermoglucocidasius and its possibility for industrial application is also documented. Although various chemical methods have been extensively developed for recovering precious metals from aqueous solutions, another possible method is recovery using intracellular microbial reduction of gold ions in solution. Microbial recovery of precious metals is potentially attractive as an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional methods. Researchers and engineers in materials science have only recently begun to focus on biomineralization. This review discusses seminal historical and recent research on bacterial biomineralization and its applications, focusing on the formation of calcite and precious metal-containing crystal species. Additionally, bacterial calcification as it relates to the panspermia theory is discussed.

Designed for space-critical applications, the ADR520/ADR525/ ADR530/ADR540/ADR550 are high precision shunt voltage references, housed in ultrasmall SC70 and SOT-23-3 packages. These references feature low temperature drift of 40 ppm/°C, an initial accuracy of better than ±0.2%, and ultralow output noise of 14 μV p-p.
Available in output voltages of 2.048 V, 2.5 V, 3.0 V, 4.096 V, and 5.0 V, the advanced design of the ADR520/ADR525/ ADR530/ADR540/ADR550 eliminates the need for compensa-tion by an external capacitor, yet the references are stable with any capacitive load. The minimum operating current increases from a mere 50 μA to a maximum of 15 mA. This low operating current and ease of use make these references ideally suited for handheld, battery-powered applications.
A trim terminal is available on the ADR520/ADR525/ADR530/ ADR540/ADR550 to allow adjustment of the output voltage over a ±0.5% range, without affecting the temperature coefficient of the device. This feature provides users with the flexibility to trim out any system errors.
