Physical inactivity has emerged as an important risk factor for a number of diseases, but the typically crude exposure assessments in epidemiological studies, with entailing variation in measurement accuracy, may be a source of heterogeneity contributing to inconsistent results among studies. Consequently, the choice of method for the assessment of physical activity in epidemiological studies is important. Good methods increase our chances of avoiding misclassification and may enhance our understanding of the association between physical activity and health. Since physical activity is also a potential confounder of other lifestyle-health relationships, good methods may enhance our ability to control for confounding. But despite a steadily increasing selection of methods to choose from, no method is suitable for every situation and every population. Although the questionnaire is the most widely used method in epidemiological studies, and laboratory methods are mainly used for validation purposes, improved technology may change our ways of assessing physical activity in the future. This paper describes different methods to measure physical activity and energy expenditure from the epidemiological perspective, and attempts to address the concepts related to the measurement of physical activity.

This is intended to be a list of notable accidents which occurred during the shooting of films and television, such as cast or crew fatalities or serious accidents which plagued production. It is not intended to be a list of every minor injury an actor or stuntman suffered during filming. Stuntwork accounts for over half of all film-related injuries, with an average of five deaths for every 2,000 injuries.[citation needed] From 1980 to 1990 there were 37 deaths relating to accidents during stunts; 24 of these deaths involved the use of helicopters.[1]

From the editors of Condé Nast Traveler:
Location, location and now luxury. The Portuguese chain Tivoli overhauled this 220-room concrete business hotel one block from São Paulo's main drag (Avenida Paulista), two blocks from its best museum (the MASP), and in its top restaurant area (Jardins), finally giving the perfect address the swank it deserves. The glass-enclosed lobby is surrounded by vegetation that makes it feel more tropical retreat than big-city high-rise. Tucked beyond the slick Narã Bar and Lounge is a cozy pool area with a multitude of lounging options among the cushiony daybeds, beach chairs, and chaise longues. The orange-tiled pool itself is oddly overheated but perfect for admiring over a complimentary caipirinha. (Order the tangerine version with pouco açucarlightly sweetened.) Earth-tone rooms are spacious if utilitarian, though a Nespresso machine and Brazilian-themed turndown service (Havaianas flip-flops and a treat like a chocolate-honey pão de mel) add a homey touch. Catalan chef Sergi Arola's first restaurant outside Spain, Arola Vintetres, has a high-end tapas menu; the twenty-third-floor restaurant is already a hot spot with Paulistas. Overall, service is extremely considerate if occasionally flawed: Dial "3" for everything becomes dial "3" for nothing if no one answers, as happened twice to our reviewer. But as long as someone picks up the phone, requests are fulfilled with speed and flair. 2010 Hot ListWhich room to book: Anything with the word Collection is spacious and has completely overhauled bathrooms.

Concierge.com's insider take:
Up high on a bluff overlooking Fiskardo's port, Nicolas Taverna boasts a gorgeous view of the sheltered harbor. It's also got a bon vivant owner, Nicolas—who, along with his sons, leads guests in Greek dancing when the mood strikes him. It may be his outsize personality that has attracted celebrities such as John Hurt to the restaurant; the overall vibe is casual and laid-back, and the food, though reliably good, isn't particularly inventive. Apart from the salads and calamari dishes, a good choice is the Hunter's Chicken, smothered in onions and sautéed in wine.
Closed from mid-October through April.

Challenge outcome: Grinding oats to coat the cod impressed several judges and adding currants to tomatoes, olives and pine nuts impressed one judge in Round 1. The sweet and savory combination of her pizza using sardines, chick peas, raisin and micro greens made her shine in Round 2.

Two Toms River families whose loved ones were murdered by Seaside Heights Patrolman Edward L. Lutes in 2002 will receive more than $5 million in a lawsuit settlement with Seaside Heights, Toms River and retired Seaside Heights Police Chief James M. Costello, according to a report in the Asbury Park Press.
The three surviving children of the Williams family, whose parents were shot and killed by Lutes, will receive $2.3 million from the Municipal Liability Joint Insurance Fund. Relatives of the second slain family, the Gallianos, will receive $3.4 million, said Jean Cipriani, the lawyer representing Seaside Heights in the cases, the Press reported on its Web site.
The Williams family's settlement has already been finalized, while the Galliano settlement is pending approval in U.S. District Court, Trenton, Cipriani told the newspaper. She said the Galliano settlement is expected to be approved within 60 days.
In the worst mass murder in Ocean County history, Lutes used his MP-5 assault rifle to shoot and kill Toms River residents Gail Galliano, 49, her husband, Dominick, 51, and their son, Christopher, 25, along with two members of the Williams family, Gary, 48, and his wife, Tina, 46, on April 9, 2002. Lutes and the Gallianos lived on Second Avenue in the East Dover section, the Williamses on George Road.
Lutes' shooting rampage ended after he drove to Costello's Barnegat home, shot and wounded the chief, and then fatally shot himself in a nearby Barnegat resident's driveway.

It's been a huge year for Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. On Jan. 9, Prince William's wife turned 32 — and she has so much to celebrate! Click through our gallery to see pics from her year!
Kate Middleton definitely has had the best year ever! She gave birth to her adorable baby Prince George of Cambridge on July 22, and she and husband Prince William have broken many royal traditions and are now making their own!
Kate Middleton: Happy 32nd Birthday
Kate gave birth at St. Mary's Hospital in London, where three doctors helped her through a no-painkiller labor — for 11 hours!
When she stepped out for the first time with Prince William and their new baby boy, she had never looked better or happier, even showing off an adorable post-baby bump.
Kate's Non-Traditional Style
The mother has proved that although she's royalty, it doesn't mean she wants others to take care of her baby. She and William are extremely hands on — they even said they were changing diapers already.
Not to mention that the Duchess is always looking better than ever. On Christmas, she stepped out in two different outfits during the holiday — both looking exquisite. She even wears super affordable dresses and accessories from stores like Zara!
We know that Kate has had a busy year, so hopefully she'll take some time to lay low with their family! Kate could actually be pregnant again. She's reportedly hoping to have a little girl to add to her adorable family!
We're hoping she is too — she's such a great mom! So, HollywoodLifers — do you think this has been her best year ever? Do you hope she has a little girl? Let us know!

Insurance limits often cut off therapy in the middle of recovery for patients such as Ellie Cizek, 20, of St. Paul.
Ellie Cizek and her brother, Zach, took the family golden retrievers for a run last week. "I want my independence back," she said.
The way it's been explained to her family, 20-year-old Ellie Cizek has about 18 months to regain the memory and thinking skills she lost on the Colorado ski slopes in January, when she glanced off a chairlift post and slammed headfirst into a tree.
So imagine their frustration this spring when, only four months into her recovery from a traumatic brain injury, her health insurer denied further care at a specialized rehabilitation center in Omaha and the family had to bring Cizek home to St. Paul.
"Insurance is pretty mean to brain-injured patients," Cizek's sister, Josie, said last week as the family prepared a fundraiser to pay for her care.
It's a common refrain for patients like Cizek — and a growing concern in the United States, where the concussive force of sport injuries, car crashes and other accidents causes 1.7 million traumatic brain injuries each year, including 90,000 severe enough to cause long-term disability.
Doctors often recommend cognitive rehabilitation — a set of therapies to retrain patients' brains and restore lost brainpower — beyond what insurance companies cover. Insurers face the dilemma of trying to hold the line on therapy costs, especially if it appears that patients have plateaued in their recoveries, amid mixed evidence about what works best. And families often learn that insurance coverage is ending just as they see substantial progress in their loved ones.
Getting rehab right is crucial: A traumatic brain injury can rob patients of memory, thinking skills, emotional regulation and even motor control of their arms and legs.
High-profile successes, such as former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, draw attention to the potential of cognitive rehabilitation, but also to the fact that most people can't afford the level of care she received.
A 2011 U.S. Institute of Medicine report concluded that rehab is often "incomplete" for those with severe brain injuries and that "many patients may not receive prescribed treatments due to limitations in payer plans."
"You're dooming people to social Darwinism — who has [access to care] and who doesn't," said Pete Klinkhammer of the Brain Injury Alliance of Minnesota, an advocacy organization.
Temporary amnesia
To a visitor's eye, Cizek is every bit the smiling young woman who made friends easily at Cretin-Derham Hall High School in St. Paul and then at the University of Kansas. The accident left her in a coma for days and in an amnesia-like state until April.
The physical scars have faded, but there are gaps in her planning and reasoning skills, and doctors have recommended inpatient rehab services.
"She can communicate and understand, but when she tries to plan an event or plan into the future, it just doesn't quite stick," said her father, Bill Cizek.
Ellie Cizek participates in group therapy at Courage Center in Golden Valley, but her parents want her to return to Quality Living Inc., in Omaha, one of the only inpatient rehab centers for traumatic brain injuries in the Midwest, so she can receive more intensive services during this critical period of healing.
Unfortunately, the fact that Cizek can walk and talk has weighed against her, because her insurer required some form of physical disability in addition to her cognitive problems to approve prolonged inpatient therapy.
Cognitive rehabilitation is an umbrella term for an approach that includes speech, occupational and physical therapy, and other techniques that coax injured portions of the brain to repair themselves or to kick-start other parts of the brain to take over.
Research on the effectiveness of cognitive rehab has accelerated since the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, where so many soldiers suffered brain injuries from roadside bombs that traumatic brain injury has been dubbed the "signature injury" of those conflicts.

Mali on the Move
Photo: Six Degrees Records
by John Oseid
My head is swaying like a bobble-head dog's and my feet are tapping like I have a bad case of restless leg syndrome. I pull out my headphones, open my eyes, and realize that I am sitting on a packed subway car. Uh, awkward. I blame my chagrin on Issa Bagayogo and his thrilling new album Mali Koura. Bagayogo may play a traditional six-stringed harp called a kamele n'goni, but they don't call him "Techno Issa" for nothing back home in Mali--his latest release is jammed with funky Western and African flavors.
I've had Mali on my mind since James Truman wrote "Where the Music Lives" for the November issue of Condé Nast Traveler. Mali produces high-quality music at the rate Michigan used to pump out cars and James captured beautifully the world of griot story-tellers/singers and the astonishing diversity of Malian sounds.
Bagayogo's label Six Degrees is offering a free download of his opening tune "Sebero" on its Web site. Log on now and you'll thank me. The rest of the album is filled with electronica beats hovering behind his bass voice and strings. Horns and flutes on "Filaw" and "Tcheni Tchekman" add jazzy inflections, while the piano and guitar on "Dunu Kan" put you right in a swinging nightclub. I could swear the dulcet female voice on "Poyo" and the balafon (gourd xylophone)-enhanced "Ahe Sira Bila" were calling to me.
The back story to Bagayogo's success is that he went through years of tough times before arriving on the world's top stages like the Kennedy Center. Not bad for a one-time bus driver with a drug problem. Expect to hear from Techno-Issa for years.
The fine World Village label just released Douga Mansa, a lush new album by another respected Malian artist, Mamadou Diabate. Diabate plays the kora, a 21-string harp with a gourd base, that to my ear sounds something like a harpsichord. I have great memories of sitting in cafes in Bamako listening to skillful kora players create some of the most achingly lovely sounds I've ever heard. On Douga Mansa, Diabate innovates off of traditional songs, but uses no overdubbing. His cascading kora notes on "Bi Allah La Ke" put me in a seven-minute trance. In the album liner essay, music writer Banning Eyre of Afropop Worldwide notes that Diabate studied his countrymen's kora techniques on YouTube while living in the States. We're entering a whole new world of vibrant connections.
More music:
* Mamadou Diabate plays New York's Highline Ballroom on January 17, followed by a return to Mali for the Festival on the Niger, which James Truman highlighted in "Where the Music Lives."
* U.K. music journalist Charlie Gillett reviews Issa Bagayogo's album Mali Koura for the Guardian newspaper.
* In his November Conde Nast Traveler story, James Truman recommended Toumani Diabate. This Sunday, November 2, the great kora player (and Mamadou's cousin) performs in a World Music Institute-sponsored show at NYU's Skirball Center. Look for the rest of his U.S. schedule on his MySpace page.
* Singer/guitarist Rokia Traoré is one of Mali's great young international stars. I'm betting she's as awesome on her new album Tchamantché as she is live.
* One of the most gorgeous kora albums I know is the late Senegalese Kaouding Cissoko's 1999 Kora Revolution on Chris Blackwell's Palm Pictures label.
* In the January 2003 Word of Mouth, I introduced you to the great guitar rocker Habib Koité. In the January 2005 Word of Mouth coverage of the Festival in the Desert, we published a great photo of a Tuareg guitarist sitting on his camel.
* In the September 2008 issue of Condé Nast Traveler, Amy Wilentz trailed famed development economist Jeffrey Sachs through Mali for "Jeffrey Sachs's Grand Experiment."

Now come on, the movies weren't all _that_ bad. I loved Jessica Alba as Susan Storm! That said, I've always had a nagging feeling that they should have been done better. Making Johnny such a wise-guy sugar-daddy was a bad idea. Most of all, though, they botched Dr. Doom, making him pretty much a recycled Norman Osborn (Julian's McMahon's voice didn't work well with the mask, either).
Someone suggested using the Mole Man for the first movie's villain, then bringing in Doom for the sequel. I think that'd be a great idea; it worked well for the Batman films. And give Doom an origin story worthy of his character!

From a womans point of view im sure you will love it as it really is aimed at you.

Re: ConsumerRebalanceFailedException
Yes - rebalance => consumers trying to coordinate through ZK.
Rebalances can happen when one or more of the following happen: - a consumed topic partition appears or disappears - i.e., if a broker comes or goes. - a consumer instance in the group comes or goes "goes" could also be triggered by session expirations in zookeeper - typically caused by client-side GC or flaky connections to zookeeper.

I have enormous respect for dedicated Christians. I was raised to follow the church's tenets of treating everyone with respect. The hypocrisy of the LDS forced me to leave the church of my family. The Birch Society showed me that the hypocrisy of division within their members showed me that this Christian movement in America would keep us in a constant state of war with any nation who did not accept Jesus Christ. President Bush 43 proved my point.
The state of a peaceful mind was not to be mine in a world of division brought on by how many Christians defined their desires.
I love the Christian music and play it daily hoping I could take in what it offered. When this movement headed for government power, I got annoyed at the audacity of their interpretation.
You describe exactly why the Tea Party/Conservative interpretation will destroy the GOP. Good Riddance.

Capstone Certificate
in Communication Sciences and Disorders
Capstone Certificate
2014-2105 Academic Year
Program Director: Professor Katherine Hustad
The UW-Madison Certificate in Communication Sciences and Disorders (CSD) is offered to students who have completed, or will complete, an undergraduate degree in a field other than Communication Sciences and Disorders, and who wish to prepare themselves for admission to a graduate training program in Communication Sciences and Disorders. The certificate is designed primarily for students who wish to pursue a clinical graduate degree (M.S. in Speech-language Pathology, or Au.D. in Audiology), but is also appropriate for students from other fields who wish to pursue a research graduate degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders.
Benefits of an On-site Capstone Program
The Capstone Certificate in Communication Sciences and Disorders not only offers students the bulk of the course sequence taken by our undergraduate majors, it also—because it is an on-site program—affords opportunities for students to get to know the faculty and for faculty to get to know the students. In addition, the give-and-take of classroom and office-hours communications is likely to produce a much broader and deeper knowledge base than is typically provided by on-line coursework. Furthermore, face-to-face learning from our world-class faculty is a good foundation for requesting and obtaining positive recommendations to graduate programs.
The certificate is earned upon completion of the following nine courses, over the course of one academic year:
- CSD201: Speech Science (3 cr.)
- CSD202: Normal Aspects of Hearing (3 cr.)
- CSD240: Language Development in Children and Adolescents (3 cr.)
- CSD315: Speech Pathology I (3 cr.)
- CSD320: Introduction to Audiology (3 cr.)
- CSD371: Pre-Clinical Observation of Children and Adults (2 cr.)
- CSD425: Auditory Rehabilitation (3 cr.)
- CSD440: Child Language Disorders, Assessment and Intervention (3 cr.)
- CSD699: Independent Study (1 cr. From CSD318, craniofacial module)
Most Capstone Certificate students will take all nine courses (24 credits total), but in some cases one or two courses may be waived depending on coursework taken previously, during the undergraduate degree; the minimum number of credits required for the certificate is 18.
To qualify for enrollment in CSD371 (second semester of the Capstone sequence), students must earn a 3.0 grade-point average across the same three "gateway" courses (CSD201, CSD202, CSD240) in which undergraduates must earn an average GPA of 3.0 to declare their major as Communication Sciences and Disorders. Capstone Certificate students who do not earn a GPA of at least 3.0 across these three courses will not be allowed to enroll in CSD371 (Spring semester), and therefore will not be able to earn the Certificate, although they can (if they choose) continue to take the remaining program coursework. Prospective Capstone Certificate Program students should also be aware that The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) standards have changed for 2014, and Standard IV-A now specifies a course in Biological Sciences (such as Biology, Human Anatomy and Physiology, Genetics, and so forth), Physical Sciences (Physics or Chemistry), and a Statistics course as requirements for clinical certification. Whereas many students who apply for the Capstone Certificate will already have some or all of this coursework, the prospective student should know that these requirements must be fulfilled prior to the student's application for ASHA certification (typically applied for following the master's degree and a clinical fellowship).
Financial Aid
Capstone Certificate students are classified by the University as post-baccalaureate, non-degree students. As a Capstone student you would be eligible for student hourly positions and to apply for Financial Aid through the Campus Financial Aid Office.

Admission - Apply for this Capstone Certificate as a University Special student through the Division of Continuing Studies online application.
In addition to completing the online application please send to Maureen Garity (email@example.com), Graduate Studies Coordinator in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, proof of your undergraduate degree, or proof of satisfactory progress toward your undergraduate degree that will be completed prior to beginning the Capstone Certificate Program. Only students with a current or final GPA of 3.0 in their undergraduate programs will be considered for admission to the Capstone program. An official, current transcript can serve as proof of the above.

Mustard'Osaka Purple'Seed source: The Cook's Garden Test Gardener: Tracey Parrish |
Tracey Parrish counts herself among those who enjoy their greens on the zesty side. Her partiality to spicy flavors makes mustard an essential crop on her ¾-acre urban farm in Boulder, Colorado.
"I love the tastes of mustards and grow a number of different varieties," says the former plant geneticist. "'Osaka Purple' is one of the prettiest mustards I've grown; it has a very large leaf, dark purple on the upper surface and lime green underneath."
Mustard is a cool-season crop and matures quickly. Baby greens of 'Osaka Purple' can be harvested in as little as 3 weeks from sowing. "Here in Colorado, I seed it under glass as early as early March, in the open garden in April and May, and then again in late summer for a fall crop," Tracey says. Like many mustards, 'Osaka Purple' is very easy to grow and readily self-seeds in the garden.
"I eat mustard raw as a salad green, very thinly sliced with a simple vinaigrette. It's not suitable for all palates, as it is rather spicy and becomes even hotter with warmer weather," she acknowledges. Its sharp taste mellows with cooking.
We also grew lots of flowers in our test garden... check out this year's favorites!
Lettuce'Black Seeded Simpson'Seed source: Peaceful Valley Farm & Garden Supply Test Gardener: Jackie Smith |
Before she retired in 2012, Jackie Smith's job included coordinating vegetable and flower trials for the University of Minnesota Extension Master Gardener Program. She has grown countless varieties of edible crops over the years, always with an analytical eye toward weighing positive traits against faults. When it comes to lettuce, Jackie recommends the heirloom loose-leaf variety 'Black Seeded Simpson'.
"Red and speckled lettuce varieties add visual spice, but nothing beats 'Black Seeded Simpson' as the dynamite background lettuce in any salad," she says of this prolific standby. "The pale green to chartreuse leaves never fail to look delightful and taste sweet with a tender, yet crisp, texture. And the plants hold well in the garden without turning bitter; I have even harvested them as they were starting to bolt and found the flavor still perfectly acceptable."
An advantage that open-pollinated varieties hold over hybrids is their ability to reproduce true to type from seeds the gardener collects—or from seeds that fall to the ground.
"Since 'Black Seeded Simpson' is an open-pollinated lettuce variety, I generally let a few plants go to seed in late spring, when they will happily spread their seeds around the garden," Jackie says. "Most years, I am able to harvest a second crop in the fall from these spring-sown volunteers, and I can reliably count on self-sown seedlings the following spring—all without any more work on my part!"

5 Simple Tricks for a Better Relationship
Find the best vendors in Hawaii here!
Photo: Tracy Yu and Leon Stronsky
It's obvious why Maui is one of the Magic Isles: Rainbows are regular occurrences and artists swoon over the dreamy vistas. By day, sunny shores, palm-fringed golf courses, and the largest dormant volcano in the world -- filled with hiking trails and lush valleys -- battle for your attention. At night, you can try swanky restaurants, watch a luau, or simply sit on your star-lit lanai and listen to waves break upon the moonlit shore.
Best weather: Mild year-round, though summer temps can reach the low 90s; slightly less rainfall between March and November. Southern shores generally receive less rainfall than those in the north.Best prices: Comparable prices year-roundFestivals: The three-day Celebration of the Arts, featuring Hawaiian music, dance concerts, and art workshops, occurs in March or April; Maui Onion Festival peels out in August; and Maui County Fair happens in September or October. All islands celebrate Lei Day on May 1; Kamehameha (named after a Hawaiian king) Day in June; Obon season (Buddhist temples have festivals featuring Japanese folk dancing) in July and August; and Aloha Festivals (a celebration of Hawaiian culture) in September and October (Maui's is the last week in October).
Scenic drives: Hop in the car and have your camera ready for a cruise on the Hana Highway, one of the most enchanting coastal routes in the world. Its 53 miles along the eastward shore is distinguished by 600 curves framed in lush jungle- and waterfall-covered cliffs and ocean drop-offs. Stop at Waianapanapa State Park to stroll a black-sand beach, hike, or explore a nearby lava tube. Hana, a quaint and friendly community, gives you a peek at old Hawaii. Continue just outside town to beautiful Hamoa Beach and Oheo Gulch, Maui's seven sacred pools, to hike and swim.
Volcanoes: Haleakala National Park is the largest dormant volcano in the world, and within it is a Manhattan-sized crater filled with hiking trails and lush valleys. Start at the base and drive from sea level to more than 10,000 feet in 38 miles. On your way up through the clouds, the weather will change and you'll pass many overlook ops, including Kalahaku Overlook, at 9,000 feet, where you can gawk at the five-foot-tall silver sword plant, found nowhere else on earth.
Cute towns: Check out Lahaina, a whaling town and Hawaii's former capital, it's where missionaries wrestled to save the seafaring souls of whalers in the 1800s. Wander the Baldwin Home to see how the locals lived or lounge under the massive Banyan Tree for shade or sunset mynah bird serenades. At night, enjoy an authentic feast and show at Lahaina Lu'au, or, if it's Friday, stroll the streets for Aloha Friday when galleries stay open late.

MakerBot Donates MakerBot Replicator 2 Desktop 3D Printers To Yahoo! Japan For "Hands On Search" Program For The Visually Impaired
MakerBot is donating several of its popular 3D printers, the MakerBot® Replicator® 2 Desktop 3D Printer, to seven schools for the blind in Japan in conjunction with Yahoo Japan Corporation, the operator of Yahoo! Japan. The donated MakerBot Replicator 2 Desktop 3D Printers will be part of Yahoo! Japan's innovative new program, "Hands on Search," that allows visually impaired and disabled children in select schools throughout Japan to have the ability to touch and feel 3D printed objects made on a MakerBot Replicator 2 Desktop 3D Printer.
Announced in Japan on November 1, which is known as the Day for Braille, the "Hands on Search" project is a new program that evolved from finding items on the Internet and taking those items and converting them into real, physical objects. The concept takes "seeing, hearing, visual and audio inputs and puts them into an innovative format for the children to touch and feel by 3D printing models of items they would find in their school, home and in the environment. The items being printed are some of the downloadable digital designs available on the MakerBot® Thingiverse® website, the world's largest 3D Design Community with more than 100,000 downloadable digital designs for discovering, printing and sharing 3D models.
The program was first conducted as a pilot program from September 20 through October 31, 2013, at the Special Needs Education School for the Visually Impaired, affiliated with the University of Tsukuba (School for the Blind), where visually impaired children had the "Hands on Search" experience, which allows them to touch more than 90 solid objects printed out on a MakerBot Replicator 2 Desktop 3D Printer. Children enjoyed learning on their own by confirming the output of shapes and objects to items they already knew or by learning new ones.
The "Hands on Search" program is now being expanded and Yahoo! Japan will bring the program to the public and will be donating the "Hands on Search" machine to the University of Tsukuba, which will be responsible for managing the machine to provide opportunities for more people to experience "Hands on Search." Any new 3D design files that are created for the program will be uploaded onto the MakerBot Thingiverse 3D Design Community website, where the files can be downloaded by anyone for free. Source code for the program will also be shared to Github. The "Hands on Search" machine will be donated to the University of Tsukuba and will be lent out to two public schools for the blind, the Hanawa Hokiichi School and the Yokohama City Special Support School.
"MakerBot is proud to be able to support the 'Hands on Search' program being pioneered by Yahoo! Japan," noted Bre Pettis, CEO of MakerBot. "We've seen some pretty exciting and innovative uses of 3D printing over the years, and those that impact children and help them see, or in this case feel, the world differently, are important to us. This program showcases how beneficial the sharing of information is and how it can transform someone's perception about the world around them."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Speaker: Lee Myung-Bak, President, Republic of Korea
Presider: Robert E. Rubin, Co-Chairman, Council on Foreign Relations
September 21, 2009
South Korean President Lee Myung-bak spoke at the New York office of the Council on Foreign Relations on September 21, outlining the future of the U.S.-South Korea alliance and concerns about a nuclear North Korea. Lee called for the United States and South Korea to ratify the free trade agreement pending in the U.S. Congress. He also discussed South Korea's role in the upcoming G-20 summit and global climate negotiations.
Here are some of the points featured in his speech:
North Korea's Last Chance: Lee called for North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons. He said the latest UN Security Council Resolution against Pyongyang would continue to be implemented even as the international community encourages North Korea to denuclearize. "North Korea is facing not a threat but an opportunity. North Korea must not throw away what may be their last chance," he said. He also stressed that the international community must change its traditional pattern of negotiating with Pyongyang, which until now had resulted in compensating North Korea for rescinding on its promises. He said the five parties within the six-party framework (excluding North Korea) must agree on an action plan toward complete dismantlement of North Korea's nuclear program. In return, he said, Pyongyang would receive a grand bargain: security assurances and international assistance.
Expanding the U.S.-South Korea Alliance: Lee called for a sustained strategic partnership with the United States that went beyond security to cooperate on issues such as climate change, nonproliferation, and economy. He said trade between the United States and Korea has been "faltering a little bit in recent times," and called for both countries to ratify the pending free trade agreement.
A Bridging Role on Climate Change: By the end of 2009 South Korea will announce a mitigation target for carbon emissions, said Lee. As a Non-Annex I country in the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change treaty, South Korea does not have to commit to legally binding emission targets. But Lee said he hopes this measure will encourage other emerging economies and play a bridging role between the advanced and emerging economies split on the issue of emission targets.
G-20 and the Financial Crisis: Ahead of the G-20 summit in Pittsburgh on September 24-25, Lee said it's going to be very difficult for all the leaders at the forum to come to full agreement on financial regulatory reform. He stressed the importance of preparing for the post-crisis period, rebalancing global growth, and enacting reform of institutions such as the International Monetary Fund.

Campbell evaluates the implications of the Boko Haram insurgency and recommends that the United States support Nigerian efforts to address the drivers of Boko Haram, such as poverty and corruption, and to foster stronger ties with Nigerian civil society.
Koblentz argues that the United States should work with other nuclear-armed states to manage threats to nuclear stability in the near term and establish processes for multilateral arms control efforts over the longer term.
The authors argue that it is essential to begin working now to expand and establish rules and norms governing armed drones, thereby creating standards of behavior that other countries will be more likely to follow.

do u think it would be stupid to ask the person you like to a
dance if they just got broken up with and they're wicked sad
about it?
cuz yea. i like this guy and i liked him b4 he had a gf
and we're friends and everything but i dont know if he
would go to it with me because hes so broken hearted.
he told me that he hasnt eaten seice wednesday. it made
me worry. and whenever hes sad i'm sad. i dont even know
and i saw his ex walking in the hall way and she looked at him
and made this really mean face (i dont know her. i've only seen
them together which is how i know who she is.) and i seriously
wanted to punch her in the face. i've never wanted to hit some1
that i dont even know. but here is my explaination in the form
of a quote.
"He's my friend. Break his heart and i'll break your face!"
lol i love quotes
sorry to babble. can u give me some input on the question.
GGGGYYYYYAAAAAHHHH!!! who said that?? who said that?? I forgot... was it Roger to Angel?... or.... Ellie to Dylan?.... TELL ME TELL ME!!
That'll drive me nuts 'til you tell me.
okay, I just googled it, and I don't think I've ever seen that, but it's so totally similiar to other things I've heard.
It depends. Are you asking him to go as just a friend or not? Does he KNOW if your asking him to go as your date or friend?
I just know eventually he'll realize just what a shitty person his ex is - mebbe it's just 'cause I believe that you really can only tell how a person is when they're at their bitchiest.
