Comfyshoes - I have heard about that type of therapy. It also makes you feel more youthful and energetic. I know that there are many herbs for menopause.
Suzanne Somers has written a lot of books on the subject and is a strong proponent for herbal remedies for menopause as well as hormone replacement therapy.
She explains on her web site how a lack of Estradiol will cause weight gain in the midsection. She believes that by replacing this hormone with the exact amount lost not only would you lose weight but you would feel younger.
If you want to find a doctor that specializes in this form of treatment you can search the American Academy of Anti-Aging.
These doctors can provide remedies for female and male menopause symptoms in order to elevate your quality of life. Suzanne Somers is in her sixties and she looks great so she has to be doing something right.

Travel Tips from people who've been to Lund
Nice place, extremely friendly people (overall). If you wanna chill and have a beer or two go to the bars next and behind the Cathedral. For cheap food, i recommend Kebab... it was quite good as well. Or some pizza in front of the train station. And if you want a unique experience... you should stay at Tåget youth hostel, also next to the train station. Good tip? (0) Very nice town, animated as there is an active College. Cathedral is a must-see : splendid architecture, wonderful retable, and quite unique astronomical clock with chime (noon & 3 pm, if I remember). Drivers, be advised that you must us parkings. Best way to visit is foot or bike ! Good tip? (0) lund .. ein verschlafenes dörfchen. der dauerlärm und geschmack ist gewöhnungsbedürftig, vorallem wenn man der sache auf den Grund geht.

text: Why he lives in metro Detroit: In order to understand why I launched my legal career in Detroit, I would like to share with you what I learned from my role model and my hero. The person I am speaking about is my father who has had an impeccable legal career in Michigan practicing labor law and resolving very complicated employment disputes. My father excelled at Harvard University to obtain his undergraduate degree in economics. When it came time for him to select a law school, he chose Wayne State Law School. His selection was motivated by the three-generation commitment to Detroit and not by the fact that he was not accepted to Harvard law school or another Ivy League law school. When I decided to become an attorney, I had several educational options. Yet, I selected Michigan State University for my undergraduate education and Wayne State for my law degree. I also had other career opportunities outside of Michigan after law school. I decided, however, to stay in Michigan like my father. My decision to stay in Michigan for my education and then to work in Michigan is a very deliberate decision. I believe Detroit is in a unique position to re-focus, to reinvent itself, and to become a major contributor to large-scale research throughout the world. I am excited to be part of that re-emergence. I have never regretted my decision to stay in Detroit. Our state is in desperate need of leadership. It is not enough to cover budget expenses with a combination of tax increases and cost cutting measures. In order to succeed, Detroit must draw businesses and people to create a strong work force. Visionary leaders must make tough decisions in law, in business, and in the work force. Part of leadership is human ingenuity. This is the crux of why I stayed in Michigan. I could not stand idly by and watch a once glorious and rich industrious cityDetroitfall into ruins when I believe I have the education, energy, imagination, and talent to achieve solutions. The way to make the Detroit area more appealing to individuals under 30 is to challenge them to re-energize the city. This challenge would take the form of businesses offering mentoring programs to individuals under 30. This mentoring would not be confined to professional jobs. The mentoring would be in skilled labor such as carpentry, plumbing, masonry, and mechanics. Detroit has a rich tradition of hard-working, industrious people that changed the face of the world economy through the auto industry. The next generation of workers is no less industrious and committed than the generation before. In addition to a mentoring program, businesses need to engage individuals under 30 and encourage them to express their ideas in performing a job. Individuals should be encouraged to look to new, original ways to achieve a solution. No one should be discouraged from offering suggestions about completing a project. Keeping the business environment open to diverse ideas should help all industries keep ideas dynamic and fresh. Workers would then be excited to follow-through to the completion of a project. My core idea on the solution is that industries must devote resources to keeping individuals under 30 in Detroit. The closing of businesses, the exporting of our technology, the focus of making our city a service economy, all these have contributed to the destruction of the greatness that once belonged to Michigan. Michigan has always relied on its industrious, committed workers to achieve greatness. Businesses must challenge the next generation to pick up the torch left by their parents. This is why I have chosen to stay in Michiganto continue the traditions left to me by my father. I believe others of my age are no less committed if they are reminded of this great legacy left to them by their parents.

Labor says Abbott breaking election promise with lower GST threshold for online shopping
PUBLISHED: 27 Nov 2013 11:30:23 | UPDATED: 28 Nov 2013 07:56:02PRINT EDITION: 27 Nov 2013Prime Minsiter Tony Abbott says moves to lower the threshold for GST for online purchases are about ensuring 'jobs in retail stay protected'. Photo: AAP
Phillip Coorey, Joanna Heath and Lucille Keen
Federal Labor has warned the Abbott government it will be breaking another election promise if lowers the $1,000 threshold at which the GST is applied to internet purchases from overseas.
A day after the government broke a key promise to honour Labor's school funding arrangement with the states, shadow treasurer Chris Bowen said any change to the GST would breach the Coalition's pre-election promise that there would be no changes to the tax this term of government.
"Yet again the Coalition is doing something in government [different] than what they promised they Australian people they'd do when in Opposition,'' he said.
Treasurer Joe Hockey, who met the state Treasurers Wednesday morning to discuss the matter, has dismissed this argument, saying lowering the $1000 threshold is a tax integrity issue, not a structural change or broadening of the tax.
The Labor states Tasmania and South Australia also support lowering the threshold.
Earlier Wednesday, Prime Minister Tony Abbott left the door open to approve a push from the states to lower the $1,000 threshold for overseas online purchases but said the states would have to bear responsibility.
This is a matter for the states, the GST is essentially a state tax," Abbott said.
"My understanding is the states are concerned retail remains strong, that jobs in retail stay protected. We want a strong sector, we want to protect jobs in retailing."

GRANTS PASS, Ore. – Anti-GMO activists in Josephine County are in a bind after last night's vote.

We need dedicated, Christian foster parents to care for children in your community. Our foster parents are the heart of our ministry. They share our vision and desire to help abused and neglected children. Becoming a Grandfather Home foster parent means opening the doors of your home and heart to children. Our foster families must be willing to make a child a true part of their family.
Our foster families are licensed according to NC licensing standards. In addition, each family receives child-specific training according to the needs of the child placed in their home. Therefore, training is individualized. Parents meet with training staff one-on-one. This allows us to gain personal knowledge of the foster parents and assists us with matching the strengths of the foster parents to the needs of foster children.
Our retention rate for foster families is 90% as compared to the national average of 50% to 60%. Our families tell us that it is because of the "support they receive from our case managers." We maintain low case loads so our case managers can provide intensive support 24/7 for our families.
Click here for the Foster Parent Application.
.Family Foster care is a temporary living arrangement for abused and neglected children. Frequently, the Department of Social Services (DSS) takes custody of children when they believe the children are unsafe and their families cannot take care of them. In most cases the foster parents, DSS, agency staff and birth family work toward reunification. When reunification is not possible, foster parents may be considered as the adoptive parents.
Therapeutic foster care is also a temporary living arrangement for abused and neglected children. These children may be in the custody of DSS or their birth parents. These children have diagnosed mental health disorders and need structured homes to provide treatment and care.
Each year thousands of children in North Carolina come into foster care. They range from birth to 18 with the majority being 8 or older. These children have unique backgrounds, experiences and needs.
Some children may only stay a few days while a relative is identified to take the children. Other children may never return to their birth family and may need to be adopted.
We are now serving 270 children daily.
No, you must have a stable, safe home to reside in, but you do not have to own it.
We provide foster care from the Raleigh area all the way to the far western counties of the state. We are always looking for good foster families in these areas.
Foster parents must be at least 21 years old. They must have a stable home and income. They must be fingerprinted and have a criminal record check; their residence must pass physical and fire inspection. They must complete all required training to become licensed.
Our agency provides foster families with a case manager who is available to our foster families and children 24/7. Monthly stipends are provided to foster families, with the amount much higher for therapeutic foster children.
Grandfather Home is very blessed with a special fund from the Grandparents' Club. This fund was established to help provide items to foster children that birth grandparents might provide. Examples of such items include pictures, car seats, school yearbooks, prom dresses, tutoring, vacations, school supplies, birthday gifts and much more.
If you have more questions or are interested in becoming a foster parent, please contact:

Invasive Aquatic Species Program
Invasive aquatic species are introduced exotic flora and fauna that displace native plant and animal communities. Infestations result in habitat disruption, loss of property values, diminished water quality, reduced fishing and water recreation opportunities and significant expense for mitigating these environmental costs.
Maine DEP addresses invasive aquatic species - primarily plants - three ways: prevention, early detection and control.
Prevention involves educational outreach and watercraft inspections at boat ramps to keep infestations from migrating from one water body to another.
Early Detection includes monitoring public waters, seeking invasive species and responding rapidly when identified.
Control tackles existing infestations directly by applying technologies and management practices that mitigate invasive species' impacts upon water quality and habitat.
DEP collaborates with lake associations, non-profit organizations, resource managers, municipalities and academia. These activities are funded by the Maine Lakes and Rivers Protection Fund sticker.
Cost Share Grants Cost share grants for local removal projects.
How to report invasive plants. What to do if you think there is an invasive plant growing in your lake or stream.

Happy news - I'm going to a Men's Wearhouse today to rent a tux for my senior photos. I'll be sure to post a scan of the the pictures here as soon as I get them. The photographers said to wear a drape or a tux for the classic formal pictures ... I just hope they accept my choice of the two.
One in ten is the number typically given of people who are queer. It is also the number of women who will get breast cancer in their life-time.
I'm queer. My mom may have breast cancer.
I'm not like other girls, and I never have been. When I was in grade school, I got in to fist-fights with boys when they would make fun of my weird, nerdy friends. Even in third grade, I was called a bull and a gorilla. I resented wearing a dress during chorus, although I loved singing. I tried to get of of the dress-wearing by pointing out that we needed more tenors, and I had the deepest voice of any of the girls, so I should sing a tenor part with the boys chorus. I was angry when the chorus teacher didn't buy it. Even younger than that, I played with both Hot Wheels and Barbies - but when when we left a box of toys at my old home when we moved, it was the cars and the cars only that I cried for. In middle school, when the other girls began to like make-up, I could only think of how it made my face uncomfortable and fake. I began to hate the pretty clothes that my mother and aunts bought for me. We fought about it. We still do.
A Brief Though on School, Teen Sex, And School-Sponsored Cheerleaders Shaking Their Cute Little Asses
We have a new gym at my school, and it officially opened today. There was a pep-rally to celebrate it's opening and the first game that is to be held in it. Of course, there were plenty of cheerleaders there, doing their little dances and stunts (so of them were quite impressive).
Now, my question is this: what is it that compels the administration to, on the one hand, refuse to provide free or low-cost safer sex materials to students in the clinic or bathrooms - there was a big stink about the issue last year - and on the other hand, support and sponsor such blatantly sexual activity? There's no way you can convince me that putting a dozen pretty girls up on stage in ultra-short skirts and bare tummies to strut and shake and bounce their stuff is not obviously and vigorously sexual.
As most of you know, the US presidential elections are tomorrow, November 2nd. I live in a conservative area of the south-eastern United States, and I have one teacher in particular who enjoys not letting us ever forget that. He is very right-wing-conservative, and frequently takes time out of class to talk politics. Today, he certainly had to chime in about the elections. He spent 1/2 of our hour-long class talking about the politics, and then felt it appropriate to thusly close his statements on the issue:
"Well, I know who I'm going to vote for, and I can tell my wife who to vote for with my fist.

Match Preview
Davidson back for Thistle test St Johnstone will welcome back Murray Davidson for Saturday's Scottish Premiership meeting with Partick Thistle at McDiarmid Park. The Scotland midfielder injured a knee in the 2-1 defeat to Celtic last week and missed Tuesday night's League Cup win over Hamilton but has now been passed fit for Thistle's visit to Perth. Only long-term broken leg victim David Robertson is unavailable to boss Tommy Wright but the midfielder is nearing a return to action. Wright has told the Perth support to think again if they believe repeating last year's feats will be easy. The McDiarmid manager saw his side bounce back from four Premiership matches without victory by beating Hamilton in the League Cup on Tuesday. The Northern Irishman denied he felt under pressure during that run but did admit expectations have risen for Saints since their impressive displays in the Europa League qualifiers. Now he has warned the club's fans that reaching the top six and qualifying for Europe for a third year in a row will be as hard as ever. Wright saidt: "From that run of four games, the only disappointing performance - and even then it was only parts of the game - was against Hibs. "We were never worried and I think we have still had a good start to the season and have won a cup game. Maybe expectation levels have risen among some supporters and some parts of the media. "Maybe they think we are going to be a shoo-in for the top six and a European spot. But we never said that. We want to be there come the end of the season but we know it will be difficult. "There will be games where we don't perform well and lose. That happens in the league. We will never get carried away or downbeat if we don't pick up one or two results." Thistle boss Alan Archibald is hopeful Stuart Bannigan will be fit. The Scotland Under-21 midfielder missed Wednesday's Scottish League Cup tie against Dundee United at Tannadice with a groin strain but expects to return. Aaron Taylor-Sinclair picked up a knock against United but should be fine although Jordan MacMillan misses out again with an ankle knock. Archibald's side have scored seven goals in seven league games to take them into seventh place. But midfielder Stuart Bannigan believes they could be further up the table if more chances had been converted. He said: "In most games we have played in, we have actually dominated possession or had the bulk of possession so we have to start converting that into goals. "It has been hard. Teams are quicker and sharper around the box and they will punish you if you give them a chance. So you need to be on your guard at all times. "Maybe last year we would have got away with a bit more. Defences were not as good and we maybe scored goals a bit more freely but this year if we don't take our chances, they go up the park and score against you. "We have not won since beating St Mirren so we are looking for a good performance up in Perth."

I hereby nominate myself as dummy of the month!
I made a VERY long post to the "reference and how-to" section without really reading how it works first. I'm wondering if maybe it could be posted in a public area (where it should have been) and then later moved into "reference and how-to"? Normally, I wouldn't even bother outing myself as being a dummy... but it was such a long piece of work.

A few years ago Paula Schleis, staff writer for The Akron Beacon Journal asked readers, "How did your life change after Sept. 11, 2001... Are there changes in your personal habits? In your beliefs? In your attitude about anything, from traveling to politics? How do you feel about your country? About other countries? About mankind and your hopes for peace?
"Did the economic mess that followed cost you a job? Inspire you to start a business? Make you more charitable or teach you to watch your checkbook more closely? … What have you lost? What have you gained?"
The newspaper assembled a number of responses for a special section in the Sept. 11 edition.
I remember watching a cable news channel as the attacks occurred. While struggling with the horror of seeing the first plane hit the World Trade Center, the second plane struck.
Once the confirmed number of deaths rose into the thousands, pundits and politicians evoked American history's only comparable catastrophe - the attack on Pearl Harbor. Of the 2,400 who were killed in that attack, fewer than 100 were civilians.
The vast majority of the 3,000 September 11 victims were civilians. Even a majority of the 125 people killed at the Pentagon were civilians. Nevertheless, the staggering number of 9/11 fatalities made such a comparison inevitable.
However, the same politicians and talking heads who conjured up comparisons to Pearl Harbor focused on the loss of life, but never mentioned how the American people responded.
Isoroku Yamamoto, Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Japanese Fleet during World War II, revealed an understanding of what Japan faced because of the sneak attack when he wrote in his diary, "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."
Yamamoto, who planned the attack on Pearl Harbor, seemed to understand that no matter how long it would take, American victory was a certainty.
Whether he understood why the Americans would probably win in the end is unclear. Nevertheless, history reveals in vivid detail that the United States would prevail because every American contributed to the war effort.
During WWII, Americans drove their cars, fueled by a few gallons of gas each week, on bald tires. They grew victory gardens. Women's nylon stockings were replaced by rayon stockings because nylon was reserved for parachutes and other war necessities. And in summer, women even wore leg makeup to mimic the seams in the nylon stockings they had to forgo.
Children collected scrap metal, rubber, and paper was recycled into weapons, ammunition, and tires for jeeps and tanks.
Meanwhile, youth organizations like the Minute Maids (a group similar to the Girl Scouts or the Camp Fire Girls) sold war stamps or bonds.
Schools and groups like the Minute Maids sponsored rallies, parades, and dances at which war stamps and bonds were sold.
Children and teens also volunteered with the Red Cross, wrapping bandages and putting together kits of items for children made homeless by the war. They knit sweaters, socks and blankets for soldiers. They helped to harvest crops whenever there was a shortage of workers. They even made model airplanes spotters used to recognize enemy aircraft.
Everyone participated. Everyone sacrificed.
Contrast this with the American response to 9/11. After the attack, President Bush had a golden opportunity to unite the nation in a noble cause.
He could have summoned Americans to break their addiction to oil, since oil finances all the terrorism originating from the Middle East.
Instead, he told us to maintain the status quo. In a speech on September 20 to a joint session of Congress, Bush said "It is my hope that in the months and years ahead life will return almost to normal. We'll go back to our lives and routines and that is good."
He was urging us to change nothing. At that moment Bush proved to be incapable of anything more than sucking up to a self-indulgent spoiled constituency.
His message was "If we change our way of life, they win!" The message should have been "If we stop financing terrorism at the gas pump like junkies making drug dealers rich, each of you wins. And the nation wins."
In the same September 20 speech, the President defined his foreign policy as a false dichotomy when he said, "Every nation in every region now has a decision to make: Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists." (Stephen Colbert would often parody this with remarks like, "Either you are for the Iraq War - or you hate America.")
It is not as if Bush was clueless how divided the nation already was. After Al Gore conceded the 2000 election, Bush said "Our nation must rise above a house divided... I know America wants reconciliation and unity. I know Americans want progress. And we must seize this moment and deliver."
The President is obliged to protect the nation from enemies both foreign and domestic. But the Bush administration turned the enemy switch to 'on' at all the wrong times. As a result, this "You're with us or against us" mindset also became the Bush administration's approach to domestic issues, not to mention a hallmark of rightwing politics.
Then, the Bush administration took advantage of the nation's fear to start the Iraq War.
The fear factor also allowed for such un-American excesses as the reactionary passage of the ill-conceived Patriot Act, a statute so contrary to our nation's principles that even a staunch conservative like the late William Safire expressed his outrage in a2002 New York Times editorial titled "You are a Suspect."
But when it came to milking the attacks for political gain, nobody outdid Rudy Giuliani.
In 1994, Giuliani told a forum "Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do."
Seven years later, Giuliani's Orwellian understanding of freedom was validated by the Patriot Act.
In 2007, Giuliani claimed to have been at the Ground Zero site "as often, if not more, than most workers." He claimed, "I was there working with them. I was exposed to exactly the same things they were exposed to. So in that sense, I'm one of them."
Some 9/11 workers objected to those claims. Their objections were justified because the claims were nonsense.
A week after Giuliani made the claim, The New York Times reported that in more than three months after the attack, he spent a total of 29 hours at the site.
Some recovery workers spent that much time at the site in two days.
Giuliani was also eager to buttress Bush's call to inaction when he instructed New Yorkers to "Show your confidence… Show you're not afraid. Go to restaurants. Go shopping!"
The result of all this was a cartoonish patriotism, measured not by what a citizen sacrificed for the nation but, rather, by how little one changed anything, or by how many "Support Our Troops" ribbon magnets one had on his SUV.
It's been noted that if WWII-era Americans, the generation that defined national sacrifice, behaved as Americans continue to behave since 9/11, the nation's official language today might be German.
The 2001 attacks changed everything for the victims and their families, intrepid rescue workers and their families, and of course Americans fighting and dying in Iraq and Afghanistan and their families. But for the other 300 million of us, September 11 didn't change much of anything.
However, it gave rise to inconveniences at the airport. And we briefly had to endure directives from manipulative media demagogues and countless ribbon magnet patriots that Americans must call French fries "freedom fries."
Still, Americans are extraordinary people and, as such, would have made sacrifices. We would have done the right thing. But at that moment, the United States needed a courageous president, politically astute and sufficiently intelligent to guide the nation in the necessary direction. We needed a president like Franklin Roosevelt, who united the nation in a common purpose.
Instead, we had George W. Bush.
He urged Americans to change nothing, and we came through.
The September 11 catastrophe was the perfect opportunity - not to mention the perfect reason - to unite the nation.
The United States was already polarized by an election in which the winner was the first presidential candidate since Benjamin Harrison in 1888, and only the fourth in American history, to lose the national popular vote - in Bush's case, by more than a half million votes - but win (sort of) the Electoral College.
Given the circumstances, it behooved him to behave in a less confrontational and divisive manner. Instead, Bush took a nation already divided and erected an ideological wall that remains intact and impenetrable to this day.
After 9/11, the American way of life stayed pretty much the same.
As for this writer, the only real change has been a sadness and cynicism born of knowing that after September 11, 2001, we could have emulated the nation's greatest generation instead of letting our government use our outrage to invade a nation that had nothing to do with September 11. We could have honored that generation's commitment by making the necessary sacrifices to achieve positive change in our time.
Instead, we went shopping.
For love of country, we went for a drive.
I would like Americans to drive less and walk more, carpool whenever possible, drive smaller, more efficient cars, carry reusable shopping bags to the grocery store, recycle everything that can't be reused, lose weight, go paperless whenever possible, eat more locally produced foods, turn down their thermostats in winter, use water collected in rain barrels to water plants, walk more, lose weight, and get off their butts on election day.
I'd also like Americans to sacrifice a reasonable amount of time to get involved in solving our nation's complex and interrelated problems.
The sacrifice American people need to make is not to support war but, rather, to avoid war. If the nation reduced its bloated demand for oil, not only would we and the planet we share be better off. We'd also eliminate the temptation to turn the chicken droppins of trying to seize control of Middle East Oil whenever possible, we'd have a lot more money to rebuild that crumbling infrastructure.

70 years ago, national sacrifice was a war effort. Today, national sacrifice means finding every way to avoid it.

Financial Literacy Research and Studies
Through demand- and supply-side surveys, research and think tanks the NFEC gathers information to provide the financial literacy industry data. The goal is to share best practices with others so they can develop or improve their financial education program.
National Financial Literacy Test Results
The NFEC's National Financial Literacy Test measures the areas covered within national financial literacy standards and breaks down the results into three distinct key areas that have an impact on one's financial capability: Motivation to Learn, Subject Knowledge, and Recognition of the First Step.
There were 2459 youth between 15 and 18 years old who participated in this national financial literacy test between January 3rd 2012 and February 21st 2014. Youth from over 40 states completed the exam and the average score was 59.6%.
Of the 2450 participants: 115 (4.7%) participants achieved a score at or above 90%, 271 (11.0%) participants achieved a score at or above 80%, 539 (21.9%) participants achieving a score at or above 70%. The remaining 1534 (62.4%) participants scoring at or under 69.9%.

Youth Financial Literacy Test
Updated to Include 2014 Results
Who's Responsible for Teaching Kids About Money?
In an online financial literacy poll conducted by the NFEC, 622 participants responded to the online survey question: "Who do you feel has the primary responsibility to teach children about money before they leave home?" The results:
Teaching Personal Finance Research
The NFEC research into the best practices of teaching personal finance is compiled in the Certified Financial Education Instructor program. One of the NFEC's lead instructors, Gary Jaeckel, has collaborated with academics who have specialized knowledge in instructional strategies and compiled numerous scholarly articles and research.
Its focus is on the methods and pedagogies of teaching financial literacy rather than the content associated with personal finances. Its goal is to permit the reader to teach financially sustainable behavior to our secondary education students. The 250 page report covers various teaching methods and how they can be used to by teachers when teaching personal finance. Some of the areas covered included: Multiple Intelligence (principally Howard Gardiner's theories), Vocabulary (Bob Marzano's methods), Visual Tools (David Hyerle), Games Based Learning (Jack Naglieri), Online ( US Department of Education), Mathematics of Money (Joseph Ganem), Blinkers (Brazil's ENEF).
To have "financial capability" means two parts: (1) content knowledge—this is the literacy part—as well as (2) the intent and ability to change financial behavior. Financial literacy does not mean that an individual or a household has the capability to alter their practices, like taking out a payday loan. That is why more and more educators are beginning to use the phrase "financial capability" ratherthan "financial literacy." Without capabilities, a financially literate populace may not increasesavings and investment or reduce debt and risky behavior.

College Debt & Financial Education Survey
Do you feel that college-bound students would make different student loan decisions if they received a financial education that helped them understand their repayment terms before committing to a loan?
See full results below:
The National Financial Educators Council, in collaboration with Ed Hathman, PhD, gathered results from individuals who participated in an online survey. The total number of survey responses received (including partial responses) was 452 from respondents made up of 97 (22%) educators or employees of an educational institution, 94 (21%) financial professional / employee of a financial organization, 63 (14%) employee of a nonprofit organization, 117 (26%) students and 78 (17%) that answered 'other' when describing their profession.
Survey responses were collected between November 21st, 2012 and August 14th, 2013. The sample was taken from visitors to the website www.FinancialEducatorsCouncil.org; visiting the site was the only inclusion criterion. Participants resided in 35 states across the United States. Two (2) respondents came from Puerto Rico and one (1) response came from the US Virgin Islands.
The results demonstrated that 243 (54%) of the respondents were parents while 205 (46%) answered 'no' to the question 'are you a parent'. Participants identified their political leanings as: 25 (6%) Libertarian, 160 (36%) Democrat, 102 (23%) Republican, 110 (24%) Independent and 52 (12%) as Other.
The survey was designed by Dr. Hathman – an expert in survey design and statistical analysis who is credited with pioneering online data collection. His company, Survey Design and Analysis, also led the NFEC's team on an international financial education campaign which involved more than 1,000 face-to-face interviews.
Before committing to federally-backed student loan debt, do you believe that kids under 21 years old should take a personal finance course that teaches basic personal finance topics like budgeting, credit, debt management, loan terms, and long-term financial planning?
Some students do not understand the financial ramifications of taking out a student loan. How big do you think this problem is?
Over half of U.S. states have introduced legislation to address the financial exploitation of the elderly and other vulnerable adults. Do you think financially uneducated kids under age 21 should have similar legislation to protect them from exploitation?
Would you have a more favorable opinion of schools (elementary/middle schools, high schools, and colleges) that offered comprehensive financial literacy programs?
A lender asked students under 21 years old to complete a financial education course to help them understand repayment terms before they commit to a student loan. Would you consider that responsible lending?
Assuming that all other factors are equal, would you be more inclined to choose a financial institution or financial professional (credit union, financial advisor, bank, insurance representative, realtor, etc.) that offered independent financial education to its members or clients?
The student loan debt industry shares many similarities with the subprime mortgage crisis before the bubble burst. In 2007, the subprime mortgage debt was an estimated $1.3 trillion with about a 16% delinquency rate. In 2012, the student loan debt totals more than $1 trillion with a 13% three-year delinquency rate. How concerned are you that this student loan issue will have negative effect on the national economy?
Pew research Center has found that over 19% of U.S. households have college debt. Do you think this debt has a negative impact on America's economy?
Since federal student lenders do not evaluate students' ability to pay back the debt, do you feel that asking financially illiterate youth under 21 years old to commit to federally- backed student loan debt is unethical?
U.S. Department of Education calculated that the cost of attending public school increased by 6.5% each year over the last decade. If that trend continues, by 2030 the total cost for a four-year degree from a public school will be over $200,000 and over $400,000 from a private institution. When do you think families should start saving for college?

If you are playing local network multiplayer you can share an expansion with your opponents. To play online multiplayer, you need to buy the expansion to play with it.
• Can I play with expansions in quick play?
Yes. However currently we limit the combinations of the expansions in quick play to avoid fragmentation of the player base and longer waiting times for games. We try to give three or four useful combinations for quick play. There is also the "Automatic" category that tries to match you up with anyone who wants to play right now.

Public Schools Marketing to Homeschoolers
Its official title is, An act relating to prohibiting advertising and marketing to students receiving home-based instruction.There are requirements, in statute, in Washington that address the district's obligation to inform public school parents about program offerings. They must let parents know if what they are offering covers the learning goals or essential academic learning requirements and, one step further, whether the program permits the student to meet one or more of the state's or district's graduation requirements. This law exempts homeschoolers from such statute. It forbids school districts from disseminating advertising, marketing or soliciting for their programs to parents who have submitted a declaration of intent to homeschool. So, if your school district is operating an alternative learning experience program, a digital or what we call virtual public school, they may no longer use any means to solicit you for enrollment. They are prohibited from even marketing to you for part-time enrollment. Keep in mind that advertising to you is not limited to just their alternative learning programs, sometimes called PPP's, Parent Partnered Programs, but any program offered by the district. Washington Homeschool Organization * School districts are not obligated to mail the declaration of intent to homeschool parents. |

The estrogen receptor alpha (ER), a member of the steroid receptor superfamily, contains an N-terminal hormone-independent transcriptional activation function (AF-1) and a C-terminal hormone-dependent transcriptional activation function (AF-2). Here, we used in-gel kinase assays to determine that pp90rsk1 activated by either epidermal growth factor (EGF) or phorbol myristate acetate specifically phosphorylates Ser-167 within AF-1. In vitro kinase assays demonstrated that pp90rsk1 phosphorylates the N terminus of the wild-type ER but not of a mutant ER in which Ser-167 was replaced by Ala. In vivo, EGF stimulated phosphorylation of Ser-167 as well as Ser-118. Ectopic expression of active pp90rsk1 increased the level of phosphorylation of Ser-167 compared to that of either a mutant pp90rsk1, which is catalytically inactive in the N-terminal kinase domain, or to that of vector control. The ER formed a stable complex with the mutant pp90rsk1 in vivo. Transfection of the mutant pp90rsk1 depressed ER-dependent transcription of both a wild-type ER and a mutant ER that had a defective AF-2 domain (ER TAF-1). Furthermore, replacing either Ser-118 or Ser-167 with Ala in ER TAF-1 showed similar decreases in transcription levels. A double mutant in which both Ser-118 and Ser-167 were replaced with Ala demonstrated a further decrease in transcription compared to either of the single mutations. Taken together, our results strongly suggest that pp90rsk1 phosphorylates Ser-167 of the human ER in vivo and that Ser-167 aids in regulating the transcriptional activity of AF-1 in the ER.

About the NLN
Joining Forces
Among the most pressing health care issues facing military men and women and their families are the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); traumatic brain injury (TBI); and other combat-related injuries. Approximately one in six service personnel returning from Afghanistan and Iraq — more than 300,000 veterans — have been affected by PTSD and TBI; since 2000, more than 44,000 of those troops have suffered at least a moderate-grade traumatic brain injury. In April 2012, through the Joining Forces initiative, spearheaded by First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden, the NLN and many other nursing organizations and schools committed to educate current and future nurses how to recognize the symptoms of these debilitating, though often invisible, conditions and provide care appropriate to each nurse's practice setting. The curriculum resources provided on these pages are offered by the NLN to faculty as teaching tools to provide evidence-based references ready to use in your classrooms and clinical settings. Please use them throughout the program of learning to teach students to provide quality care to military men and woman and their families.

I have considered becoming a medical insurance specialist -- I've worked in medical transcription for years, so I know some about the industry -- but it seems like the job really takes a lot of work. I mean, I'm not looking for a walk in the park, but it took me long enough to learn medical coding for my transcription work, I can't imagine learning a whole new system about payments as well. What do you all think?
Does anybody reading this work in medical insurance, can you give me a little better feel for the day to day in this job?

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I am a hospice nurse working with an elderly patient who has excessive mucous from his stoma for over a year, and which causes erosion of the stoma seal. He has to change the seal several times a day. He is very active and is disgusted with this problem. He also has mucous from the rectum, which soils his pants. Is there any medication that will reduce the mucous; does he possibly have a C. difficile infection, and could you suggest the best supplies that will not break down around the stoma site? His surgeon said this problem will probably last forever, and I would like to figure out some solutions.
Ave Preston, MSN, RN, CWOCN, Ostomy Nurse Specialist at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
I would suggest an evaluation by an Ostomy Nurse Specialist to see if there is a different pouching system that would get a better seal. Several manufacturers make skin barriers with extended wear barriers which may hold up better and/or he may benefit from a convex skin barrier pouching system and belt to help the stoma protrude more into the pouch. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with meds that would decrease mucus production.
See this previous question about rectal mucus after colostomy.

One of the keys to any postseason run is having experienced players go above and beyond their play in the regular season.
Which is why the Lady Colonels are heading to the district finals and South Oldham is heading home after a 63-45 defeat in the first round of the postseason Wednesday night.
The Lady Colonels (13-15) relied heavily on seniors Jayla Davis, Kasey Wernert and Abigail Stewart, who scored 47 points combined for Oldham County.

Thursday, February 28, 2013
HAMPTON — In just over one hour's time, Winnacunnet High School's hopes to reach the Division I girls basketball semifinals went from looking unrealistic to very, very possible.
Dover's Molly St. Germain had six early points and Molly Wotton scored twice inside in the second quarter. The Green Wave was crashing the offensive boards and Winnacunnet was strictly a two-girl offense with Mimi Macleod and Carly Gould.
When Valcich left the court for a breather just before the third quarter ended, Winnacunnet led 43-17. Eight quick points to start the fourth quarter eliminated any doubt. |

In case you have not noticed yet… the smallmouth fishing in Indiana is on fire right now. Not only are we catching all sorts (and sizes) of smallies in the waters around Indianapolis but we get reports daily from folks fishing Sugar Creek, Flatrock, The Big Blue, Tippy, Eagle Creek, and Fall Creek.
One of the great things about fishing for smallmouth bass at this time of year is you can catch them on almost all types of flies at various times of the day. Crayfish, sculpin, streamers, poppers, and even nymphs are bringing in smallies. However, soon the waters will start to cool and become clearer. This means the smallmouth will change the food they are targeting as well as where and how they feed.
Dave Karczynski has a very nice article over on MidCurrent that is sure to help you keep catching our favorite bass as the waters cool down. Late-Summer Smallmouth Tactics is all about shallow clear water strategies for catching smallies as they target baitfish in the late summer and fall months. This can be one of the most productive times of the year to fish as the smallmouth target one to two inch baitfish. Takes are aggressive and the fights are hard but you have to change from your hot summer tactics to something a little softer. Read the article and get ready for a great fall of smallmouth fishing.

If the black hole is that big, what should i imagine for the event-horizon?
Nov. 28, 2012
FORT DAVIS, Texas —
Astronomers have used the Hobby-Eberly Telescope at The University of Texas at Austin's McDonald Observatory to measure the mass of what may be the most massive black hole yet — 17 billion times our sun's mass — in galaxy NGC 1277. The unusual black hole makes up 14 percent of its galaxy's mass, rather than the usual 0.1 percent. This galaxy and several more in the same study could change theories about how black holes and galaxies form and evolve. The work will appear in the journal Nature on Nov. 29.
NGC 1277 lies 220 million light-years away in the constellation Perseus. The galaxy is only 10 percent the size and mass of our Milky Way. Despite NGC 1277's diminutive size, the black hole at its heart is more than 11 times as wide as Neptune's orbit around the sun.
"This is a really oddball galaxy," said team member Karl Gebhardt of The University of Texas at Austin. "It's almost all black hole. This could be the first object in a new class of galaxy-black hole systems." Furthermore, the most massive black holes have been seen in giant blobby galaxies called "ellipticals," but this one is seen in a relatively small lens-shaped galaxy (in astronomical jargon, a "lenticular galaxy").
The find comes out of the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Massive Galaxy Survey (MGS). The study's goal is to better understand how black holes and galaxies form and grow together, a process that isn't well understood.
"At the moment there are three completely different mechanisms that all claim to explain the link between black hole mass and host galaxies' properties. We do not understand yet which of these theories is best," said Nature lead author Remco van den Bosch, who began this work while holding the W.J. McDonald postdoctoral fellowship at The University of Texas at Austin. He is now at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg, Germany.
The problem is lack of data. Astronomers know the mass of fewer than 100 black holes in galaxies. But measuring black hole masses is difficult and time-consuming. So the team developed the HET Massive Galaxy Survey to winnow down the number of galaxies that would be interesting to study more closely.
"When trying to understand anything, you always look at the extremes: the most massive and the least massive," Gebhardt said. "We chose a very large sample of the most massive galaxies in the nearby universe" to learn more about the relationship between black holes and their host galaxies.
Though still ongoing, the team has studied 700 of their 800 galaxies with HET. "This study is only possible with HET," Gebhardt said. "The telescope works best when the galaxies are spread all across the sky. This is exactly what HET was designed for."
In the current paper, the team zeroes in on the top six most massive galaxies. They found that one of those, NGC 1277, had already been photographed by Hubble Space Telescope. This provided measurements of the galaxy's brightness at different distances from its center. When combined with HET data and various models run via supercomputer, the result was a mass for the black hole of 17 billion suns (give or take 3 billion).
"The mass of this black hole is much higher than expected," Gebhardt said. "It leads us to think that very massive galaxies have a different physical process in how their black holes grow."
Founded in 1932, The University of Texas at Austin's McDonald Observatory hosts multiple telescopes undertaking a variety of astronomical research under the darkest night skies of any professional observatory in the continental United States. McDonald is home to one of the world's largest telescopes, the 9.2-meter Hobby-Eberly Telescope, a joint project of The University of Texas at Austin, Pennsylvania State University, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, and Georg-August-Universität Göttingen. An international leader in astronomy education and outreach, the McDonald Observatory is also pioneering the next generation of astronomical research as a partner in the Giant Magellan Telescope.
Notes to editors: High-resolution images to accompany this release are available here.
McDonald Observatory also produces a web resource on black holes for public, the StarDate Black Holes Encyclopedia. The site includes articles, images, and videos on all known black holes.

Wo it's to biggest. Super super. Good articles. Thanks.
3. Mr Masten Petley said on Nov. 30, 2012
1. The black hole has consumed NGC1277 (which was once large) and is now at a tipping point and will start evaporating.
2. The black hole is consuming matter we are unable to see.
3. The black hole does not work as we think it should and is consuming something else (a dark matter black hole?)
4. The black hole has been join by another one without causing a recoil.
4. Troy Johnson said on Dec. 13, 2012
How do we know it's a black hole? Is there synchrotron radiation present? What, if any, is the relationship, if any, between dark energy/matter and a black hole? If this is the largest black hole, what is the smallest black hole? Where did you get the figure 17 billion solar masses? How big is the Milky Way's central black hole? Does anybody really understand exactly what a black hole is?
