I am need of help in deciding on what kind of mattress to buy. I have a multitude of back problems; osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, bulging discs. Most of my back pain is in the middle of my back, and it seems that all the muscles in my back are just tight, tight, tight. I have looked at the Simmons Comforpedic Natural mattress (found one on closeout for 1200.00 for the queen), Tempurpedic, and other memory foam mattresses because I have heard they are best for those with back problems, but am not sure that I would be happy with them since I am not used to the style. I also have neck problems, soreness and stiffness caused by a chiropractor. I know that if I sleep on too hard of a mattress it ends up hurting my shoulders and hips as I am pretty much a side sleeper. I also don't really want to have to break the bank.
Can you please help? Lois
Hi Lois. A closeout latex mattress is a good deal...as long as it's not too soft. The memory foam looses its resiliency too quickly and many who buy that type are sorry before long. Better to have a firmer mattress for your disc issues and then soften it with a latex topper. Latex topper provide a soft surface that keeps it shape and the firmer mattress provides adaquate support.

L'Ecole No. 41 gets global praise for its local focus
While much of L'Ecole's production relies on grapes from the 11 million-acre Columbia Valley, Marty Clubb is narrowing his focus on Walla Walla Valley grapes.
Special to The Seattle Times
L'Ecole No. 41 2011 Ferguson Vineyard, Walla Walla Valley, $60: The newest wine in the L'Ecole lineup is a massive cab-based blend that will only get more interesting with time. Right now, it reveals aromas and flavors of crushed walnut, black cherry and fresh-from-the-oven brownie, all backed by assertive tannins. I recommend decanting.
L'Ecole No. 41 2011 Seven Hills Vineyard Estate Syrah, Walla Walla Valley, $35: This is a glorious expression of Washington syrah, thanks to aromas and flavors of plum sauce, blackberry jam, dark chocolate and marionberry that intermingle with feathery tannins and a luscious finish.
L'Ecole No. 41 2011 Seven Hills Vineyard Perigee, Walla Walla Valley, $50: This cab-based blend from estate grapes on the Oregon side of the Walla Walla Valley is rich yet elegant, with aromas and flavors of mild oak, blackberry jam and black cherry, all backed by rich yet balanced tannins.
L'ECOLE NO. 41 has long been one of the darlings of the Walla Walla Valley and the Washington wine industry. Now it is becoming a global juggernaut — all by focusing on grapes that are closer to home.
L'Ecole began in 1983 in an old schoolhouse along Highway 12 west of Walla Walla. Baker and Jean Ferguson, owners of Baker Boyer Bank, launched the winery as a retirement project. A quarter-century ago, their son-in-law, Marty Clubb, took over the operation and has since crafted some of the Northwest's finest wines.
In the past few years, Clubb has guided L'Ecole through many changes, not the least of which was a conversion three years ago from the beloved label that depicted the schoolhouse with a child's drawing. This was all part of Clubb's plan to evolve L'Ecole into a winery that could earn respect worldwide. The new label, an artist's rendition of the schoolhouse, fits the classy, upscale elegance that Clubb seeks.
And while much of L'Ecole's production relies on grapes from the 11-million-acre Columbia Valley, Clubb is narrowing his focus on Walla Walla Valley grapes. For many years, L'Ecole's prized vineyards have included Pepper Bridge and Seven Hills — the latter Clubb co-owns with Gary Figgins of Leonetti and Norm McKibben of Pepper Bridge. Now, he is bringing in grapes from Ferguson, an estate vineyard on the Oregon side of the valley, not far from the town of Milton-Freewater.
This spring, Clubb and winemaker Mike Sharon released their first wine from the vineyard, the 2011 Ferguson, a cab-based Bordeaux-style blend that ranks as L'Ecole's highest-priced wine. It's immediately turned heads around the world. In June, it won a prestigious International Trophy at the Decanter World Wine Awards in London for best Bordeaux-style wine over £15 — beating out the best from France and California.
While far from being a large producer, L'Ecole now has distribution nationwide and overseas, and Clubb's vision of his winery carrying the message of Washington's high quality to the world is coming to fruition.

We named our son Levin, which is an archaic English word meaning "lightning." I think word names work best when they are not words in everyday use. I particularly like Reverie, for example, but I would never use Dream.
I like virtue names, like Temperance, Mercy, Justice, Rejoice, Redeemed
I knew a girl named Satin in high school. Everyone called her Satan, though. She was really a mean girl, possibly because her name was Satin. And a girl I went to school with named her daughter Vanity. These are examples of bad ideas.
I would not ever name a child Hush. That seems a little...squelching? Or Boulevard. Sorry. Or Together.
One of my guilty pleasure names is Measure. There was a book character named that. I would never use it on a person, though.

I'm not really a fan of word names, but Lilac and Harmonia are lovely. (I guess Melody would fall into this category too.) I particularly like the flow of Harmonia, and Lilac has a pretty feel to it. And another word name that I like is Sky. Here are some word names that I can think of (do names of Seasons count?):
Most of these names aren't particularly strange, but when I first heard of them I found Lettuce, Christmas, Wednesday, Promise, Princess, Brick and Silence to be quite unusual. Christmas actually sounds quite sweet, and apparently Lettuce was popular in Victorian times. I've also heard that Silence is an old Puritan name. I quite like the idea of having Seasons and Months as names, at the moment I'm warming to Spring and April. Eclipse sounds cool as well, but somehow it's not warming to me as a name yet.teenberry . names . royals . history . photography

text: Big room gets tired real quickly over here in DAD HQ so when we get a bumpin electro house pop remix like this, you know we'll be rinsing it out to all the basics. Gazzo's remix of Anoop Desai's "Love War" is a groovy one with it's hopping percussion, quick vocal chops and driving pace. It doesn't have the name recognition of a Beatport banger and yet it still packs a punch as it's got the right vocals to keep the girls on the dancefloor and the fists pumping. We have no doubt that a main stage DJ can drop this and make a dancefloor go crazy, but this doesn't have the name recognition for that so it should be in every opening DJs crates at the very least.

27 Years Ago Today, Canada Allowed Unlimited Abortions Up to Birth for Any Reason
Students for Life Honors Memories of Kortney, Sophy & Jon
by Kristan Hawkins | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 2/9/12 11:10 AM
During our 2012 National Conference last month, SFLA honored the lives of our dear friends Kortney Blythe Gordon, her pre-born daughter Sophy, and Jon Scharfenberger, who were killed by a drunk driver in Macon, Georgia last October.
Our team decided the best way to make sure that Kortney, Jon and Sophy are a part of all of SFLA's National Conferences moving forward was to name 3 Everyday Hero awards after them. SFLA will present the Kortney, Sophy and Jon Everyday Heroes awards at each National Conference to honor the memories of our friends.
These awards will be given out to thank and publicly recognize 3 selfless defenders of the preborn who don't normally get much attention for their tireless work, and to inspire this generation of pro-life leaders to follow these these defenders' footsteps. We also hope that this annual awards ceremony will serve as a strong reminder to those students we work with that driving under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or other mind-altering substances is never the pro-life choice.
SFLA extends our congratulations again to our 2012 Winners:
- John-Paul Deddens, founder of Students for Life of Illinois and recipient of the Jonathan Daniel Scharfenberger Everyday Hero Award
- Don Blythe, founder of At the Well Ministries, Inc. and recipient of the Sophy Joy Gordon Everyday Hero Award
- Kathleen Wilson, co-founder of Mary's Shelter and recipient of the Kortney Blythe Gordon Everyday Hero Award

Emily went home and asked her mother if they could afford voice lessons. Velma said they'd find the money; after what she had been through, she would do whatever it took to see that her girls could pursue their dreams.
Emily was fifteen minutes late and had forgotten the check for her first voice lesson, neither of which sat well with Anne Van Etten, a tall, lithe, blond woman who towered over the shorter Latina girl. But Anne's pique wilted in the face of seventeen-year-old's Emily's dazzling smile. And it disappeared entirely when Anne heard her sing.
She sings slightly flat, Anne thought, but that's a technical fault, easily corrected if she has any kind of ear. The exciting thing was that Emily had a real voice--a professional-caliber voice. It was more than pretty. It had power, too. Untrained though it was, Emily's voice had a unique depth and color that was particularly rare in one so young.
Anne was fond of telling students that since opera was larger than life, an opera singer's voice must be larger than life. "To succeed, the opera singer, without microphones, must be able to reach out across a large stage, past the orchestra, and pull the audience in," she said.
Anne looked the girl over: It helped that she was beautiful. There was an exotic sensuality to Emily's dark features and an innocent friendliness to her smile. She could play the ingenue, the villainess or the heroine with equal success.
The more Anne talked to the girl, the more she came to appreciate Emily's natural charisma. That should carry over to the stage, she thought. A successful opera singer's personality had to fill a theater. And a truly great one extended her persona beyond the halls, adding to the mystery and drama. It was no accident that the term prima donna originated with opera. But while the words had been corrupted to describe a person with an exaggerated sense of self-importance, in opera they were not a slight. To be the "first lady" was a title of distinction.
This was not a career for the weak-spirited.
Still, while Emily's voice was a gift most people would never have, there was much work to do. In the opera world, there are thousands of voices for every opening--and sometimes more when the opening is for a lyric soprano. Many hurdles lay between a seventeen-year-old warbling at the baby grand piano in Anne's basement and the Central City stage, much less the Met in New York. Emily would have to learn to act. She would need a good ear for languages; in America, opera singers were expected to be at least phonetically familiar with Italian, French and German, and to understand the languages well enough so that they could know what their character was saying.
Anne could coach her through much of this. But the girl would have to find the will to succeed from within. No one could give that to her.
Anne knew that lesson well. Born in Norway in 1944, she, too, had a real voice. After receiving her master's degree in vocal performance at the prestigious Boston Conservatory of Music, where she'd studied with John Moriarty, she'd gone on to study in Germany and had been offered singing jobs in Europe.
But Anne had lacked the drive to push herself to the next level. Rather than enjoying it, she found performing stressful.
The turning point was the birth of her son, Lars. In order for her to succeed on the stage, opera would have to come before anything else. Anne wasn't willing to make that sacrifice. Weighing opera against motherhood, she chose to raise her son.
In the process, though, she found a career she truly loved: teaching others to sing. The year before Emily started taking lessons, Anne and her husband, Karl, had moved to Colorado, where Karl became the dean of the Community College of Aurora. Anne worked there as a vocal instructor and occasionally took private students.
Like Emily. As she talked with the girl about what she expected from her students and warned of the long, hard road ahead, she wondered if Emily could stick with it. Developing even a real voice took years of constant practice and fine-tuning. Indeed, it would be ten years--at least--before Emily would be ready for her break.
In the meantime, such a voice was extremely vulnerable to social pressures--like smoking, drinking and staying up late to party. Even talking too much could ruin a voice for the opera stage. Would this pretty, gregarious girl be willing to give up those youthful pleasures? And if she did, she would be following a long, lonely road with no guarantee that she'd reach her destination.
But wait: Emily had just announced her musical aspirations. She wanted to be a Broadway star!
Anne shook her head. She arched an eyebrow and announced, "A Broadway musical is all well and good." With her Norwegian-accented English, well and good came out vell ahnd goot. "But you have a voice for opera."
It would be years before Emily's voice was strong enough to even attempt an aria without risking irrevocable damage. In the meantime, Anne concentrated on strengthening her student's voice and correcting her technique.

Learn English Underwater With Kaplan!
Our friends at Kaplan International have done it again. Their educational research and development department, located in London, have discovered what I believe will be the next trend in the language teaching industry – underwater classes. According to the findings of Professor Martinhoff, the head of Kaplan's research department, studying underwater can boost a student's learning ability by almost 60%. Dr. Martinhoff conducted research with a group of students in a swimming pool at the Kaplan Torquay campus. One student from Colombia said that the underwater class improved her ability to think in English, and another student reported the ease of fluency he experienced was beyond his expectations.
Registration for this unique, underwater course begins on April 1, 2014. I personally think this program will sell out quickly, so don't delay. For complete information and to register, please visit Kaplan International and learn more about their Underwater English Program. Courses will be held in Kaplan's special underwater campuses off the coasts of the USA, Australia and the UK.
If you know anyone who is interested in this topic, why not help them out! Just share this article with them. Thanks for studying today!

Velázquez Announces $23.5 Million in Emergency Funds for Housing Vouchers
Federal Money to Help Close Budget Gap at New York Housing Agency
Washington, DC –The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) is receiving a short term emergency funding infusion of $23.5 million from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY) announced today. The funds will be used to help cover a $45 million shortfall in the agency's Section 8 program that has put 10,000 tenants' rental assistance vouchers at risk of being revoked.
"While more remains to be done, this announcement is good news for our City, for NYCHA and, most of all, for thousands of New York families that rely on Section 8 to find affordable housing," Velázquez noted. "By helping close NYCHA's budget gap, these funds will offer a lifeline to some of our most vulnerable residents."
Earlier this year, because of lower attrition rates from the program and higher than anticipated demand, NYCHA was forced to rescind vouchers from households that had been promised assistance. While the New York City Department of Homeless Services is taking steps to assist many of the affected families, Velázquez made clear there is a need for better administration of the agency's programs.
"Certainly, NYCHA faces difficult challenges because of the economy, but recent events also suggest a need for more transparency in how it operates," Velázquez said. "In coming weeks, I'll be keeping a close eye on NYCHA to ensure it uses theses resources wisely and prevents problems like these from occurring again."
In recent weeks, Velázquez pushed the Department of Housing and Urban Development to set aside some of its funding to help address the NYCHA budget shortfall. In addition, last month, she and other New York Members of Congress helped broker a deal that federalized several NYCHA public housing properties, providing immediate funding to update and improve the facilities, while ensuring the buildings also receive steady source of federal money in the long term. Velázquez is a senior Member of the House Committee on Financial Services, which has jurisdiction over housing matter.

Got a new thermostat that requires a 24v common C wire. The current cable is a 3 conductor that I had previously labeled Rh, W and G when replacing the old round mercury thermostat a few years ago.
Looking for some advice before I get started. Running the new wire shouldn't be a problem as it's pretty much a straight run through an interior wall and I can see where the wire comes out in the basement. There is a small panel mounted on a wall which I believe houses the transformer (will double check when there) that has armored cable coming into it from the main breaker panel and going out through armored cable to the gas fired boiler. The three conductor cable runs directly from the thermostat to the the boiler. Old house, old wiring but in good shape. Boiler was replaced a few years ago. Some questions: Should I replace the existing wiring completely or is it ok to just add a single wire for the C wire? What gauge wire is recommended? Where does the other end of the C wire attach to? Somewhere on the boiler with the other thermostat wires or somewhere in that box on the wall? Anything else I should consider? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I suggest running a new set of thermostat wires. There are wire bundles made specifically for thermostats. You can use 18 or 20 guage wire. The C wire is the common ground. It should go on the ground side of the transformer. The G wire is normally the fan control. What does the G wire do in your set up? |
- Posted by TomNorthJersey (My Page) on Thu, Oct 4, 12 at 16:36
I just looked up what the wire letters stand for. I assumed G was a ground. When I first replaced the old, gold colored, round thermostat (honeywell I think) with a different model programmable thermostat years ago I just remember following the instructions and labeling the wires without giving it much thought. I just looked up what the letters and G doesn't make much sense for my system. This thermostat only controls the boiler. The G wire is inserted into the G terminal. Everything has been working fine. Looks like on a 3 wire system it should be R, W and Y not R, W and G like I have it. Later tonight I'm going to check the connections at the boiler and see if G is even connected to anything. If not I can use that for C. Found this video on a way to use a different wire for C. Any idea if I can do something like that if my G wire isn't usable? |

- Posted by TomNorthJersey (My Page) on Thu, Oct 4, 12 at 18:00
The end of the cable in the basement has 4 conductors. Red and White (maybe was yellow) were connected. The other two were folded back and not connected. Only saw 3 wires at the thermostat end. One of the must have broken off. COuldn't make out the colors of any of them. 50/50 chance I get it right the first time. I couldn't make out any markings on the terminal block where the red and white wires were connected. There was one wire coming off the transformer and into that block. I'm guess that was C right? Will go over over the schematic again and try and take a pic of the terminal block. The face is pointing towards the side, not the front and it's difficult to make out anything on it. |

New Synthetic methods, total synthesis and silole based materials |
Pagenkopf Group Research Overview |
Research in the Pagenkopf group broadly covers three areas of research: natural product total synthesis, development of new synthetic methods, and silole based materials. Recently completed total syntheses include bullatacin (see full publications list, publication 30), aplysiallene (34) and goniomitine (38). New synthetic methods developed within the group include alkynylations of quaternary epoxides (17), reactions of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (see our review) to prepare hetereocycles including pyrroles (19) and substituted indoles (33). We also use modern synthetic methods to prepare novel materials based on the silole chromophore, including dissymmetric siloles (23) and siloles with unusually high photo luminescent quantum efficiencies (27). Our work on siloles is becoming highly interdisciplinary, and current collaborative projects include work on electrogenerated chemiluminescence, organic photovoltaic devices and molecular sensors.

Hollywood Tans, one of the nation's largest chains of tanning salons, turns dermises gold with a special alchemic process known as Tanetics. Skin specialists consider each customer's tanning goal, skin tone, and skin sensitivity before helping them choose the perfect skin-shading procedure. Four clean and comfortable types of stand-up UV tanning-booth options filter out most pestiferous UVB rays while speedily darkening pigment. Pricing varies, but five 11-minute bouts inside Hollywood Tans' HT42 booth ($30) are enough to leave any pelt polished with a glossy base tan. For Daphnes fleeing Apollo, a Mystic spray-tan booth (starting at $19) depales pasty parchment with a misty coat of bronze that can last 5–7 days. The Mystic's cartridges can be changed to allow users great flexibility in choosing their preferred skin patinas, or they can be purchased in bottle form for do-it-yourself home applications (starting at $19). A plethora of lotion is available to give your skin a longer lasting hue and moisturize your dermis until it's a glowing beacon of hydrated human hide.
At Nevaeh Management, infrared-energy treatments help clients achieve slender bodies with healthy circulation. Six silicone treatment pads envelop the thighs, hips, abdomen, and arms during infrared body wraps, facilitating the pursuit of cellulite reduction and mummy impersonation. Although the treatments are primarily used for detoxification and weight loss, they may also relieve pain due to sports injuries, chronic fatigue, or fibromyalgia.
Originally opened in 1987, Shear Power pampers the Ranson community with indulgent spa and salon services that nourish the skin and the hair with botanically-derived Aveda products. The staff includes several stylists, an aesthetician and makeup specialist, a massage therapist, and an independent nail technician who operates out of the salon. These professionals all work together to spruce up clients' appearances by designing a flattering hairdo, pampering and revitalizing visages, or using gel polishes to perform long-lasting mani-pedis.
At Capitol Vein and Laser Centers, a board-certified team of physicians keeps a professional eye out for the latest in future-grade technology. As a result, clients can expect a tailor-made approach to their particular issues. Some spider veins can be taken care of with non-invasive lasers, while others may require a more intensive, minimally invasive course of action. Whatever the case, folks can rest easy knowing that every diagnosis is handled by an accredited vascular laboratory stocked with medical professionals.
At LaBella MediSpa, owner and registered nurse Helene Taylor and board-certified plastic surgeon Guy Cappuccino gently fell follicles with help from the Lumenis LightSheer and Palomar YAG lasers. First, a routine questionnaire and horoscope reading are administered to determine overall health and rate of hair growth in new patients. Dr. Cappuccino or Nurse Taylor then select the laser most suited to each patient's unique skin type, tone, and dermal demands, adjusting the beam's intensity for maximum complexion protection. Aiming photon pulses at burrowing bristle, she permanently pulverizes up to 90 percent of follicle fortifications and tricks stubble into surrender with targeted heat and the promise that they'll be granted asylum in Belgium.
Imagine dropping a stone into a pond. Though the stone only touches a small portion of the water's surface, the effects of the impact radiate throughout the entire pool. Reflexology is based on a similar idea—as a therapist stimulates pressure points on the feet, the effects are said to affect the entire body. At Magic Foot Spa, practitioners specialize in this therapy, first soaking feet in water warmed over the blushing cheeks of an ankle-anxious Victorian before targeting pressure points that correspond with various body organs. As practitioners increase pressure on each foot, the manipulation can ease muscular tension and release energy blockages in the digestive, immune, and circulatory systems.
The team also performs full-body acupressure treatments that are based on similar principles. These gentle massages work by activating the key pressure points used in acupuncture, but with fingers, palms, and elbows instead of needles. As clients lie fully clothed on a massage table, therapists focus on these points—which are believed to correspond with the body's energy channels—so that they can balance opposing energy forces and thus improve bodily function.

'Les Misérables' will make you sing and cry
The long-awaited film of the Broadway musical, "Les Miserables," directed by Tom Hooper and starring Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, Russell Crowe and Amanda Seyfried, will make you sing ... and cry, too, writes Seattle Times movie critic Moira Macdonald in this review.
Seattle Times movie critic
Movie Review
"Les Misérables," with Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne, Sacha Baron Cohen, Helena Bonham Carter, Samantha Barks, Aaron Tveit. Directed by Tom Hooper, from a screenplay by William Nicholson, Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schönberg and Herbert Kretzmer, based on Cameron Mackintosh's production of Boublil and Schönberg's stage musical. 160 minutes. Rated PG-13 for suggestive and sexual material, violence and thematic elements. Opens in several theaters on Dec. 25.
Resistance is futile to Tom Hooper's "Les Misérables." It is going to sing at you until you succumb — and you just might.
"Les Mis," as millions already know, is a sung-through musical tale (based on Victor Hugo's sprawling novel) of love and death and revolution in 19th-century France, in which nearly every song is a catchy ballad and nearly every character we get attached to dies — generally immediately after singing an especially pretty and catchy ballad. The long-awaited screen version of the hit stage musical (now in its 28th year on London's West End) makes things difficult for itself, with one key miscasting and a clunky opening sequence seemingly designed to clear the cinema of anyone not already a fan. But sit back and wait for this film — and these actors — to find their rhythms. This isn't a great movie musical, but it's a good one, with a couple of truly transcendent performances.
One of those comes from Hugh Jackman, who overcomes a rocky start (why does his voice sound so oddly tinny at the beginning?) to deliver a moving depiction of Jean Valjean, the saintly former convict now trying desperately to overcome his past. Jackman, a stage-musicals veteran, knows how to make singing seem as natural as speech, and his emotional connections with factory-girl-turned-prostitute Fantine (Anne Hathaway) and her daughter Cosette (played as a child by Isabelle Allen, then by a sweet but thin-voiced Amanda Seyfried) give the movie its heart. Russell Crowe, as Valjean's nemesis Inspector Javert, is less successful: Crowe has a small, tight singing voice and — worse — he seems to stop acting when he sings, making the two an uneven match.
Hathaway, though in the movie briefly, is utterly riveting — in a performance that wouldn't be possible onstage. Singing much of "I Dreamed a Dream" in a voice so tiny you fear it will fade away, like breath on a cold night, she makes Fantine's pain immediate and real, and the way she curls her mouth into scorn on the song's last line ("Now life has killed the dream I dreamed") is devastating.
Hooper's direction isn't particularly imaginative; most of the songs are shot in tight close-up, which gets repetitive (as do all those ballads — though Samantha Barks as Éponine and Eddie Redmayne as Marius are particularly good at delivering them). But "Les Misérables," with its ever-soaring music and ever-dreaming characters, has a grandeur to it, and the final interaction between Jackman and Hathaway would take a heart of stone to resist. Yes, I cried, and yes, I'm still humming; you might, too.

In honor of our military veterans, I'm reprinting below a message from ABA President Steven Zack calling for legal help, and providing some resources for lawyers who want to get involved.
Dear Colleagues:
On this Memorial Day, the American Bar Association is calling on all members to assist in a critical effort to support our nation's veterans. Service men and women have devoted their lives to our country and to protecting our freedom. Now, we ask you to donate your time to assist them.
Veterans face a wide array of legal issues created by their unique circumstances, including challenges in obtaining medical care, disability benefits, reemployment rights, as well as help with consumer, housing, criminal and family law matters, but often are unable to afford legal counsel.
There are many ABA programs making an indelible difference in the lives of our nation's veterans. Our Coordinating Committee on Veterans Benefits and Services web portal provides an entry point for attorneys seeking program information and volunteer activities.
The ABA Commission on Homelessness and Poverty partnered with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Veterans Affairs to launch a national pro bono project providing critical legal assistance to our country's more than 100,000 homeless veterans. This initiative is cited as Signature Initiative #1 in the Administration's plan to end homelessness.
The ABA Commission on Law and Aging has provided four capacity-building mini-grants to non-profits and bar associations to recruit attorneys to provide veterans with pro bono legal assistance. This effort has allowed us to develop VA-accredited video training materials and webinars on veterans' benefits.
The ABA Section of Administrative Law & Regulatory Practice's Veterans Committee works alongside important groups like the National Veterans Legal Services Program and the Department of Veterans Affairs on efforts to improve administrative procedures in the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC). Current efforts are aimed at methods to streamline the appeals process, eliminate lengthy delays in decision-making, and reduce the number of remands to the Board. Proposals for expanding the jurisdiction of the CAVC to provide for de novo review of fact finding by the Board as well as the Federal Circuit, and to provide class action authority for the CAVC are under development.
These ABA programs along with a number of important state and local bar association programs are only effective with the strong commitment of volunteers. We ask that you consider giving your time to aid veterans. To volunteer for an ABA program, visit www.americanbar.org/veterans or send an email to email@example.com. For a list of programs you can volunteer for in your area, view the Directory of Pro Bono Veterans Resources.
We encourage you to get involved by serving those who have served us.

Glad he was not hurt. But the news media is a bunch of idiots. The man who was struck by bullets, identified as 20-year-old Cortez Bradley, was transported to Grant Medical Center. Investigators said that the second suspected robber, Bradleys 16-year-old cousin, fled the scene and sent a text messages to family members, indicating that he was shot twice. The identities of the suspected robbers were not released.
Romans 1:16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
My oldest son delivered pizza's for several years to help put himself through college. Fortunately, we live in a small town where most people know each other and he was relatively safe. I say good job on this pizza delivery guy that defended himself. And, at least for my son, he was not paid minimum wage. He was paid whatever the delivery fee was charged, given a certain amount of gas money a night and kept his tips. The better and more organized the delivery driver is, the more he made a night. My son made damn good money delivering pizzas, but it was crazy work, to be sure. Many deliveries to drunks at parties..........who would tip outrageously large amounts of money....or invite him to come back to the party after he was off work. People answering the door wrapped in towels just out of the shower, people who would spend 10 minutes looking for their checkbook or trying to scrape up the money like they were surprised they'd have to pay for the pizza they order. Once he delivered a pizza to a farm house and when the door swung open in response to his knock, he found a shotgun pointed at his face. The guy answering the door didn't know someone else in the house ordered a pizza. I was PISSED BEYOND BELIEF when my son told me this. Dogs jumping all over him........and little kids who thought the pizza delivery guy was almost as wonderful as Santa Claus.
I hope they learn a lesson. But I doubt it.
It appears the owner, while his instructions were not followed, is supportive of the guy, so I hope he doesn't lose his job. More guns equal less crime. It's a statistical fact. Who's got that quote about two wolves and a sheep discussing what's for dinner and balancing the vote is the sheep with a firearm? JD
Good for him. My friend delivers pizza, Carey's his .45 acp sig at all times.
Oh dern.... Revelation 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

Summary: Elyn Saks is a success by any measure: she's an endowed professor at the prestigious University of Southern California Gould School of Law. She has managed to achieve this in spite of being diagnosed as schizophrenic and given a "grave" prognosis -- and suffering the effects of her illness throughout her life.
Saks was only eight, and living an otherwise idyllic childhood in sunny 1960s Miami, when her first symptoms appeared in the form of obsess ...show moreions and night terrors. But it was not until she reached Oxford University as a Marshall Scholar that her first full-blown episode, complete with voices in her head and terrifying suicidal fantasies, forced her into a psychiatric hospital.
Saks would later attend Yale Law School where one night, during her first term, she had a breakdown that left her singing on the roof of the law school library at midnight. She was taken to the emergency room, force-fed antipsychotic medication, and tied hand-and-foot to the cold metal of a hospital bed. She spent the next five months in a psychiatric ward.
So began Saks's long war with her own internal demons and the equally powerful forces of stigma. Today she is a chaired professor of law who researches and writes about the rights of the mentally ill. She is married to a wonderful man.
In The Center Cannot Hold, Elyn Saks discusses frankly and movingly the paranoia, the inability to tell imaginary fears from real ones, and the voices in her head insisting she do terrible things, as well as the many obstacles she overcame to become the woman she is today. It is destined to become a classic in the genre. ...show less

Muslims and Jews on common ground: Both face increasing discrimination around the world
Discrimination against Jews and Muslims is on the rise around the world, according to a new report in the US.
The annual US Department of State report for 2012 has revealed an increase in anti-Islamic sentiment in Europe and Asia.
The report also said there was growing anti-Semitism, especially in Venezuela, Egypt and Iran.
According to the BBC, the International Religious Freedom Report noted that in Egypt, anti-Semitic sentiment in the media sometimes included Holocaust denial or glorification.
The report said that even in the 21st Century, traditional forms of anti-Semitism, such as conspiracy theories, use of the discredited myth of 'blood libel' and cartoons demonizing Jews continued to flourish.
It found that Muslims faced new restrictions in Belgium, which had banned face-covering religious attire in classrooms.
The report also raised concern at the restricting of headscarves in schools in Mangalore, India. It also highlighted the targeting of Islamic minorities in majority Muslim countries.
The report said that there had been rising violence against Shia and Ahmadi Muslims in Pakistan, discrimination against non-Sunni Muslims in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, and the arrest and harassment of Sunni Muslims in Iran. (ANI)

Subject: DISCUSSION - Weapon sales to Georgia
Russia has in the last few days accused U.S. and Ukraine again of rearming
Georgia. The rhetoric on this front is heating up. This could be Moscow
setting up a reason to intervene anew. Not saying, in any way whatsoever,
that they would attack because of this. I am just saying that it could be
something they want to have on the backburner if they want to invade.
Look at it this way. When Russia invaded Georgia last year, the invasion
mirrored U.S. intervention in Yugoslavia in 1999 almost to the T. Russia
even called their intervention a "humanitarian intervention" that was
initiated due to Georgia's failure in its "responsibility to protect" its
citizens. It was comical how much they tried to make it sound like Kosovo.
But this is not about comedy. The point about R2P (responsibility to
protect) and humanitarian intervention legitimization is that U.S. is a
world hegemon and can say whatever the hell it wants to invade. Russia was
sending a direct message to the U.S., by using that language last year,
that it too is a hegemon (albeit regional one) and that it can use any
excuse for interventions as well. THAT is the message that was sent.
In the case of Georgia in 2009, Russia could easily then try to mirror the
2003 invasion in Iraq. Saying that it was a preemptive strike against a
"murderous regime that attacks its own people and that the international
community cannot allow to rearm." By using the same language and
legitimization as U.S. did, Russia would again illustrate that it is
(within its sphere of influence) a hegemon.
o (8/5) Russia on Wednesday accused the United States of quietly
rearming Georgia a year after Russian forces crushed the ex-Soviet state's
US-backed military and warned it would respond accordingly. Delivery of
weapons from the United States is continuing," Deputy Foreign Minister
Grigori Karasin told journalists at a briefing ahead of the first
anniversary of the 2008 Russia-Georgia war.
o (8/4) "Washington is playing the key role in rearming the Georgian
military machine," Grigory Karasin, a deputy foreign minister, said in
comments reported Tuesday by the Interfax agency. "It would be in the
interests of Georgian democracy ... to refuse to arm this country at all."
o (7/27) Russian-backed South Ossetian President Eduard Kokoity
accused the United States, Ukraine and Israel of aiding genocide by
supplying weapons to Georgia to incite military actions against the
breakaway region."The United States, Ukraine and Israel bear a heavy
responsibility for the genocide of the Ossetian people." Kokoity said in a
televised broadcast on Russia Today. "They are arming Georgia to the teeth
and holding more military exercises."
o (8/6) Russia calls on the international community to stop supplies
of any kind of arms to Georgia - not only offensive, but also all other
military systems, RF Foreign Ministry spokesman Andrei Nesterenko said on
the Vesti news television channel on Thursday in connection with the
anniversary of tragic events in South Ossetia.
o (8/5) South Ossetia's rebel leader Eduard Kokoity accused the EU
observers on Wednesday of giving "tacit approval" to Georgia's military
build-up along the tiny enclave's de facto borders with Georgia, Interfax
quoted him as saying.
o (7/23) "Russia will take "concrete measures" to prevent Georgia from
re-arming after its war with Moscow last year, ITAR-TASS news agency
quoted Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin as saying on Thursday. "We
have a deep worry regarding the activity of the Georgian leadership over
remilitarising its country, which several states are responding to in a
surprisingly calm and positive way" Karasin said, in comments directed at
Tbilisi's allies. "In the event of foreign states supplying Georgia with
arms and war equipment -- from Russia, or Soviet-developed, or produced by
Russians or Soviets -- we will consider the question of limiting or
stopping military-technical or military-economic development with these
states", Tass quoted Karasin as saying. Karasin did not name any country
but Moscow has previously expressed anger at Ukraine for selling weapons
to Georgia which Russia says were used against it during the fighting.
The Russian official also took aim at countries he said were concealing
military aid under the guise of humanitarian programmes. "In recent
months, we have observed efforts by some states to act in an underhand way
to conceal military cooperation with the Georgian side, which includes
masking it under the guise of 'humanitarian aid' to overcome the
consequences of the conflict", Karasin said.
o (7/24-from Moscow Times) Countries that have supplied such arms to
Georgia include the Czech Republic, Poland, Bulgaria, Uzbekistan and
Ukraine, which Biden visited before arriving in Georgia as part of a
weeklong tour aimed at assuring both countries that they had nothing to
fear from Washington's efforts to improve ties with Moscow.
o Ukraine admitted it still supplies Georgia with weapons, RIA Novosti
reports alluding to The Vedomosti newspaper.
o Yesterday Eduard Kokoyty, the leader of South Ossetia, claimed that
the USA, Ukraine and Israel still supply armaments to Georgia. In early
July Sergei Bondarchuk, Ukrspecexport director general, in his interview
to The Syogodni newspaper stated that the company had complied and
complied with the weapon supplies contracts.
o But Ukraine really supplied weapons even after war - to comply with
the contracts signed in early 2008: twentyT-72B tanks, also, possibly,
several dozens of APC -70 DI and antitank missiles.
o Israel's relations with Georgia have been close, partly because
there is a large Georgian Jewish community in Israel. In recent years,
ties have also taken on a military dimension, with military industries in
Israel supplying Georgia with some 200 million dollars worth of equipment
since 2000. This has included remotely piloted planes, rockets,
night-vision equipment, other electronic systems and training by former
senior Israeli officers.
o Israel is not a major supplier of arms to Georgia, with the U.S. and
France supplying Tbilisi with most of its weaponry. But the arms transfers
have attracted media attention partly because of the role played by some
high-profile Israeli figures, including former Tel Aviv mayor Roni Milo,
who conducted business in Georgia on behalf of Israel Military Industries.
o Further attention was drawn to the Israel-Georgia arms trade earlier
this year when a Russian jet shot down an Israeli-made drone being
operated by the Georgians.
Russian forces have seized a "large arsenal" of U.S.-made weapons in the
western Georgian city of Senaki including hundreds of assault rifles, a
military spokesman said Friday. "In Senaki, we seized a large arsenal of
weapons including 664 U.S.-made M-16 rifles" and a number of M-40 sniper
rifles, General Anatoly Nogovitsyn told a news conference in Moscow.
"There were 1,728 weapons total.
o Georgia has bought from Bosnia and Herzegovina a shipment of
long-range 262-millimetre reactive systems for fusillade M-87 Orkan MLRS.
Besides, seven GradLAR MLRS, used for shooting in 13 directions at a time
at a distance of up to 45 km, were bought from Israel, from the Czech
Republic - six MLRS RM-70.
o What is more, from Ukraine and the Czech Republic, AGS-17 "Plamya"
from Ukraine, anti-mechanized flame throwers "Fagot", fabricated in
Bulgaria and licensed in the times of the Soviet Union.
o As part of its rigorous rearmament program, Georgia purchased 30
towed (122-mm D-30) and 12 self-propelled (152-mm "Dana") howitzers from
the Czech Republic in 2006; 6 Mi-24B/P and 2 Mi-8MT assault helicopters
from Ukraine in 2005; 31 T-72 main battle tanks from Ukraine and the Czech
o Republic in 2005; 25 120-mm mortars from the Czech Republic and
Bosnia also in 2005; 20 BTR-80 armored personnel carriers from Ukraine in
2005; 12 self-propelled 152-mm 2S3M howitzers from Ukraine in 2004; one
Mi-35 assault helicopter from Uzbekistan in 2004; 40 BMP-2 APCs from
Ukraine in 2004; 14 120-mm mortars from Bulgaria in 2004; 6 122 mm RM-70
MLRS systems from the Czech Republic in 2003; and other heavy weapons,
including fast attack craft, more mortars, howitzers and helicopters.

Hello. I'm Brittany and I'm honored to have made the top 5 in Seventeen magazine's Pretty Amazing contest. I'm sick right now because I had a cold in San Francisco this weekend when I was presenting an award to Facebook at the GLADD Media Awards, but I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you why I think you should vote for me, but because my voice is a little bit grumpy right now, I got my friends to tell you instead.
You should vote for Brittany McMillan because number 1, look at her awesome Iron Man teddy bear and secondly well honestly I'm blessed to have Brittany as a friend, and nobody deserves this more than Brittany.
Brittany McMillan is sweet and caring. I remember when I first met her a long time ago, she's been a great friend for me ever since and she's been there whenever I need her.
Hi. I'm Courtney, Brittany's sister, and this is our dog, Hanna, and I'm her stepsister, Shantel. The reason why I'm voting for our sister is because she's probably the most accomplished teenager we know, and after creating Spirit Day, she's really come out of her shell. We love the person she has become.
Hi. I'm Ryan. I'm Brittany's big brother. The reason I'm voting for Brittany is because she's helped so many people all over the world and made them feel like they're not alone.
So these are my friends and the reasons why they think you should vote for me, but because this is my video I feel if I should say something too. The reason I think I deserve to win this contest is because I'm working with GLAAD and Pride Live Nation to make a difference in the world. I created the Spirit Day, a day to wear purple on October 20th to stand up to homophobic bullying and support LGBT teens. If you think I deserve to win this contest, please head over to seventeen.com/pretty-amazing and vote for me. Thanks for your support. Bye.

If your like me and can't remember every character and location name in Tolkien's middle-earth, but you would like to see the connection between his work and the lotr card game, then your in luck.
Some of you may already be familiar with these resources, Tolkien's world from a-z by Robert Foster and The Atlas of middle-earth by Karen Wynn Fonstad.
These are excellent resources for bringing more lotr lore to your gaming experience. If your wondering about who characters like Beregond or Erestor were in the novels, or would like maps of Moria, or find out where locations like cair andros were, then get these books.
Strangely, I can't find any information on the two heroes Eleanor and Beravor. Does any one know anything about them, or are they just made up by FFG?
i'd also be curious to know if there are any other resources worth checking out.

Does anyone have photos to share of their container garden.
I want to try one of the new smaller butterfly bushes in a container this year Buddleia 'Blue Chip' Have seen in containers , wonder if it actually does ok in container - Mike |
Follow-Up Postings:
Oh gosh Mike, I tried it in a container here, and it died..died...died. I'm pretty good at keeping things alive and thriving, and I had NO luck with it. I have a TX friend (very green thumbed) who tried it in a container and had the same experience. Not trying to discourage, but they are pricey.~~Angie |
- Posted by coolbutterfly 5A (My Page) on Wed, Apr 18, 12 at 20:53
I think I've also read in here that people said it attracted less butterflies...and almost ALL butterfly bushes attract lots of butterflies. I am growing a butterfly buddleja BUZZ in a container and it looked great last year and is coming back good now. It attracted lots of butterflies too. I think the new dwarf series that a lot of people are buying now is the flutterby series...I haven't heard reviews about them though. I'm sure someone here has tried them. Good luck, Tony |
Mike, it is said that "need" is the mother of invention. In my case I surely had a "need", I was losing ten and more healthy plants every year to voles. They were eating the entire root system to just below the ground level. The solution I reached involves planting the new plant in a pot and then planting the plant, pot and all in it's final location. I am using this method for all my outdoor plantings and have for about the last ten years. I use 7 gallon pots for smaller plants and 15gallon pots for, perhaps full-size roses such as Hybrid Teas or Shrub roses. I modify the pots before planting by adding about 6 holes about 1" in diameter about 1/3rd of the distance up from the bottom. These extra holes provide extra drainage but their true value is that the plant's internal anchor roots have escape outlets to provide the necessary stability. One tip, a 15" pot with plant and soil in it is pretty heavy! Try digging the hole to fit the pot, place empty pot in hole, level it and then put in some of the planting soil, plant your new specimen and then finish placing the balance of the soil in the pot. You will find that you will be able to use less water and fertilizer because you are containing the area treated. The pot can stay planted forever. It will continue to provide a barrier that is reasonably efficient in repelling voles. I have a five year old Viburnum (Summer Snow) that is ten Feet tall now and is still in the 15 gallon planter. Mike Cronin came and dug up tons of potted host and pollen plants for butterflies last year to replant in a memorial garden in SW Virginia. Being potted, the digging was much easier and less stressful on the plants. The critical feeder roots were protected and essentially undisturbed. All my buddleisa are, and have been, planted in partially buried containers and do very well. I am attaching a few shots for reference.

Slimming World
Slimming World is a long-established UK weight loss company which has recently begun serving both the USA and Canada.
They operate a very successful weight-loss program as a weekly class for members as well as an extensive online program as well as publish a magazine entitled Slimming World.
The Slimming World Diet is based on its diet plan centered around their concept of "Food Optimising".
All trade marks mentioned in this article are the property of the registered proprietor.
Food Optimising Plan
The Slimming World Food Optimising Diet Plan promotes weight-loss through calorie restriction in the diet, but in a way that promotes satiety and not starvation.
The Optimising Diet is based on these principles:
- Nutritious or filling foods having a low calorie content are termed "free foods" (that is, the quantity consumed is unrestricted).
- Some higher-calorie foods containing plenty of minerals, vitamins, or fiber are limited to 1 portion per day.
- Other high-calorie foods like cheeses are measured and eaten according to the meal plan provided.
For a better understanding of how food optimizing works, they have a free 7 day menu published on their website.
Body Magic Exercise
Exercise is an important part of Slimming World. However, they realize that exercise is difficult for some people, so they emphasize the importance of starting small and gradually increasing activity as strength increases and weight comes off.
Members are encouraged to regularly do 5-10 minutes of activity by starting off small — for example, just walking down the driveway or to the end of their street.
The ultimate goal is for Slimming World members to complete 30 minutes of exercise 5 times a week.
Built in Support
Slimming World recognizes that dieters can increase their chances of success drastically by having a support system in place.
Members are provided with a trained Slimming World Consultant that will answer questions, provide positive reinforcement, as well as offer suggestions for increased success on the diet.
Members are also asked to join a weight loss group either at their few centers in Texas, Canada, and the UK or online through their website member resources.
Sample Slimming World Meal Plan
Breakfast 1oz muesli and fat free vanilla yogurt. |
Snack Skinny latte and 1 banana. |
Lunch Cheese and ham potato salad, made with baby potatoes, chives, scallions, fat-free Cheddar cheese and shredded, cubed lean ham |
Dinner Spaghetti Bolognese, with an onion cooked in low-calorie spray, extra lean ground beef, tomatoes, mushrooms, bell peppers, grated carrot, celery, garlic and oregano. |
Program Costs
Slimming World offers to levels of membership.
- Silver – which costs $65.00 for 3 months.
- Gold- which costs $85.00 for 3 months.
