Expanding Universe and Galactic Collisions
Name: Tom Status: other Grade: other Location: NV Country: N/A Date: N/A
The Andromeda Galaxy, being a blue-shifted object, is understood to be on a collision course with our own. There are other examples of two galaxies that have already collided. How can this be possible if the universe is expanding in all directions? Hasn't everything been moving away from everything else since the big bang? If galaxies are colliding, then their path since the big bang must have changed direction at some time in the past! What could cause this, gravity from another galaxy? I do not see how that could be--everything is moving away from everything else.
Dear Tom,
At its largest scales, you are right-- everything is indeed moving away from everything else. But within clusters of galaxies, galaxies can approach and collide with one another. The red shift is intended as a distance yardstick for distant objects
Good question.
David Levy
Think of it as two forces opposing each other: gravity that tends to bring things together, and the expansion of the universe which tends to spread things apart. In the case of Andromeda and the Magellanics, these galaxies are close enough to the Milky Way that the resultant gravity and the relatively close proximity of the galaxies to each other results in a strong enough attraction to resist the general expansion. In the cases where the galaxies are farther apart, the gravitational pull is not strong enough so that the galaxies drift away from each other.

Green Legacy Hiroshima receives 2014 award from the Hiroshima Peace Creative Fund
4 March 2014, Hiroshima, Japan - Green Legacy Hiroshima, the global Initiative supported by UNITAR, the NGO ANT-Hiroshima and a host of local and global partners, which was co-founded by UNITAR's senior advisor Nassrine Azimi and ANT executive director Tomoko Watanabe, has won the prize awarded by the Hiroshima Peace Creative Fund. The award ceremony took place in Hiroshima on 3 March 2014.
Since 1994, when Hiroshima hosted the Asian Games, many groups and individuals have developed international exchanges to encourage mutual understanding and long-lasting friendships.
The prize started as part of the activities of the Hiroshima International Culture Foundation in 1998, and was succeeded since 2012 by the Hiroshima Peace Creative Fund. Two other groups - the Hiroshima Volunteer Interpreters and SALAM, a women's group assisting Palestinian counterparts, also won awards.

The UNITAR Hiroshima Office, in collaboration with ANT-Hiroshima, recently held a Public Session that examined the continued efforts of Green Legacy Hiroshima to spread worldwide seeds and saplings of Hiroshima's A-Bomb survivor trees. The Public Session served as an opportunity to reflect on the deeper meaning and message of A-bomb survivor trees, and was attended by more than 100 representatives of the wider Hiroshima community.

The Jujube tree (Ziziphus jujuba) on Peace Boulevard offered the first bounty of the GLH seed-picking season this year. Thanks to botanical advisors Horiguchi san and Sera san, new efforts to have seeds germinate have started (last year we were not successful!).
In July 2013 GLH started its third year, now accompanied by partners in some 20 countries.
- On Saturday 27 April, 2013 Sally Fegan-Wyles, Executive Director of UNITAR, accompanied by the Green Legacy Hiroshima team, visited some of the survivor trees. Mr. Yasuyoshi Komizo, Chairperson of the Hiroshima Peace Culture Foundation and Mr. Akio Nishikiori, President of the Hiroshima Architects Association - both members of the Green Legacy Hiroshima Working Group -- joined the tour on a beautiful sunny day. The visit took the group to the memorial of Dr. Marcel Junod, head of the ICRC delegation at the time of the atomic bombing, and a well-loved, renowned figure in Hiroshima. For this occasion, a second-generation Gingko biloba sapling, destined to be planted on the ICRC grounds at its headquarters in Geneva, was handed over to the UNITAR delegation. Thanks to Sally and Alex Mejia, the sapling has now arrived safely in the hands of the gardeners at ICRC headquarters, and will be planted this year in a special ceremony marking 6 August.

Secretary Sullivan Announces $500,000 PARC Grant for Medford
MEDFORD – Monday, October 31, 2011 – Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary (EEA) Richard K. Sullivan Jr. today announced a $500,000 grant will be awarded to the city of Medford as the part of the Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities (PARC) Program.
The grant will be used to support a $930,000 installation a synthetic, or turf, multi-purpose field at Hormel Stadium.
"On behalf of the Patrick-Murray Administration, it gives me great pleasure to award this grant to Medford for a project that will revitalize key open space used by many of the city's young people for recreation," said Secretary Sullivan. "I want to thank Mayor McGlynn and city legislators for partnering with us at EEA to make this happen."
Since Governor Deval Patrick took office in 2007, EEA has invested over $32 million in PARC grants to support communities in renovating or developing 108 parks.
The PARC Program (formerly the Urban Self-Help Program) was established in 1977 to assist cities and towns in acquiring and developing land for park and outdoor recreation purposes. Financed by Massachusetts environmental bond fund, the program was created to support land acquisition and the construction, or renovation of recreation facilities – such as swimming pools, zoos, athletic fields and playgrounds.
"The PARC Program picked an excellent project to invest in, one which will benefit Medford High School, young people involved in local sports leagues, and the community as a whole," said Sen. Patricia Jehlen. "Upgrading Hormel Stadium, including the installation of a synthetic field surface, will allow for more usage and provide much better and safer field conditions, especially in the spring and the fall when our weather can often make maintaining natural grass fields difficult and expensive."
"This grant provides a great opportunity for the residents of Medford to utilize and to enjoy the field at Hormel Stadium for many future years", said Rep. Paul J. Donato.
The application process for PARC grants is open each spring to all 351 cities and towns across the Commonwealth.

Imprint: Berkley (trade paperback and digital)
From the author of the "beautiful and engaging" (Open Book Society) debut novel Louder than Love, comes the story of second chances, missed flights, and a woman ruled by her mother's wedding dress.
As the dress-bearer for her mother's wedding, comic book artist Laney Hudson has a lot more baggage than the bulky garment bag she's lugging from New York to Hawaii. Laney is determined to prove she's capable of doing something right, but running chores for her mom's fairytale nuptials is proving to be a painfully constant reminder of her own lost love.
So when she's mistaken for the bride and bumped up to first class, Laney figures some stress-free luxury is worth a harmless white lie. Until the flight crew thinks that the man sitting next to her is Laney's groom, and her little fib turns into a hot mess.
The last thing Noah Ridgewood needs is some dress-obsessed diva landing in his first-class row. En route to his Vegas bachelor party, the straight-laced software designer knows his cold feet have nothing to do with the winter weather.
When a severe storm leaves them grounded in Chicago and they find themselves booked into the last available honeymoon suite, Laney and her in-flight neighbor have little choice but to get better acquainted. Now, as her bridal mission hangs in the balance, perhaps the thing Laney gets right is a second chance at love.

In this powerful debut novel, a young librarian grieves the loss of her husband…and discovers a love that defies classification.
It's been over three years since a train accident made a widow of Katrina Lewis, sending her and her young daughter Abbey back to the suburban town of her youth…the only place that still makes sense. Lauder Lake is the perfect place to hide and heal.
Recluse rocker Adrian "Digger" Graves survived the implosion of his music career, but his muse has long lain dormant. Until Kat hires him to play at her library—not on the basis of his hard rock credentials but rather, because of the obscure kids' TV jingle he wrote years ago. In a case of mistaken identity, Adrian stumbles into the lives of Kat and her comically lovable daughter.
Using tattoos as a timeline, Adrian unfurls his life for Kat. But as the courtship intensifies, it's unclear whose past looms larger: the widow's or the rocker's. Will their demons ever rest, or will they break these soul mates apart?

When I first bought this blush, I really loved it. I had actually replaced my Nars Orgasm with it! The thing about this blush though is that the color is long lasting but it tends to take me a lot of product to see any color, and there is a very fine line between too much blush and not enough. I ended up returning it and going back to Nars but it's definitely a good blush.

I have recently added Peaceful and Captivating in my Tarte blush collection. Both are beautiful peachy blushes. I was expecting to like Captivating more but I'm suprised that I'm grabbing Peaceful alot more. I have tried this blush on 5 bridesmaids ranging fair asian complexion to medium and tanned. It is universally flattering on every skin tone. Peaceful is alot more sheer but buildable, looks beautiful on any skin.

I love these Tarte blushes. I have 6 and this is probably the second most reached for shade of them all, after my beloved Tipsy. This blush isn't matte, so if I want a little glow/shimmer on my cheeks, I reach for this. If I want a natural, long-lasting wash of color, I reach for this. It's just so flattering on my light yellow-toned skin. It's taking forever for me to even make a dent in the pan b/c the texture is not too powdery and thus I don't waste any product when I dip in my brush. I also have Nars' Orgasm, and to me, this is so much more wearable b/c the shimmer is more subtle. It's also cheaper than Nars, I'd recommend getting this (and all Tarte Amazonian Clay blushes) over the Nars blushes.

I read below that this was in a way a dupe for nars orgasm but more peachy- agreed. However, for me this product beats the Nars blush on several fronts. A. the color is universally flattering it looks good on a tan brazilian friend of mine and a medium skin toned african american friend of mine B. for me personally this tone flatters me and gives me a more etheral glow much more natural. Obviously, this product is a bit expensive but I assure you it is worth it. Next time you stop at ulta or sephora pick this baby up.

I love this color... Almost a dupe of the Nars Orgasm blush, but a tad bit more peach. It goes on smoothly and stays on most of the day. I find the amount of pigment to be just right. I have to be careful not to put too much. It's a nice youthful looking color. Will probably repurchase.

This is a beautiful color. However, I have two Tarte Amazonian Clay blushes and I just don't like the formula and don't think they are worth $26. To powdery and not enough pigment.

This has been one of my go to summer colors. Its a nice bright peachy pink on me but isn't overbearing. Its nicely pigmented and blends in nicely. The staying power could be better, but nothing really lasts more then 4 hours on me.

I like this product, but it's not one of my favorites. I've generally been pretty pleased with products from Tarte. I agree with other reviewers this shade is just hard to pull off. I am pretty fair, NC15-20 and I didn't find that this complimented my skin well. It's a very nice shade and well pigmented, but it doesn't work for me. I was trying to broaden my blush horizons and do something other than pink.

Let me start off by saying this is the wrong color for me, however, I can still use it with a very light hand. I think this will look best on very fair skin, and possibly cool-toned ladies. I am "light", with yellow understones, and if I use too much of this blush it just doesn't look right on me at all. However, this was my fault, and not tartes :) I love these blushes and I would buy this again in another color. This blush does live up to it's claim and it last all day, all night. It is easy to blend, great pigmentation.

Your Testimony?
I grew up believing if I "behaved" myself and lived up to the expectations of my parents; then I'd be able to have the things I wanted and dreamed about for my life. My thought process was, "If I do my part, then God will do His part." But bad things still happened...life still happened. Over time, I decided I would be the one "in charge" of what happened to me. I had one "face" for my parents, one "face" for those at work, one "face" for those I hung out with on the weekends, and even a "face" for God.
It took many years and a lot of physical and emotional pain for me to find my way back to God. I had made so many mistakes in my life; I wondered how He could ever want me back. But He did. In His love, I found complete acceptance and forgiveness. I didn't have to "be" a certain way. I didn't have to complete a long list of things in order for Him to say, "You are worthy." He loved me as I was...He wanted relationship with me in my "mess" and current state of chaos. That realization was the start of an incredible journey. A journey I still walk today.
It's not that I have all the questions answered in my life or that I reflect balance. There are times I still need to wrestle with Him – it's almost like I have to come to the end of my own strength to fully realize the power of His strength. I want to be real in my relationship with Him and in my relationships with others…especially with my students. It's part of the journey we walk together – discovering who He wants us each to be as we follow His amazing plan and purpose for our lives. It's a life-changing experience for each of us.
Favorite Bible verse and why?
The LORD will guide you always;
He will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land
and will strengthen your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like a spring whose waters never fail. - Isaiah 58:11 (NIV)
I've tried living life with "me" in control. It didn't work. Trying to do things in your strength leaves you exhausted, empty, and without hope – especially when you're trying to please everyone else in your life.
This verse is guiding me as a woman in my 50's. The reality is that more of my life is behind me than what is ahead of me. I want my life to count for Him. I want to make a difference in the lives of others so they experience and know the impact of a completely forgiven, redeemed life. I want students to show care and compassion in a way that reflects how Christ loves each of us. I want each student to see the possibilities for creating positive change in their own lives, in the lives of their families, where they work, as well as in their communities at both a local and a global level. Such possibilities for change do exist when we are connected to the true source of strength in our lives and as we live our lives according to His plan and purpose.
Hobbies and Interests?
- Camping
- Hiking
- Movies with lots of action and explosions (it happens after raising two sons!)
- John Wayne movies
- Facebook - it's been a great way for me to stay connected with my family, my students, and our grads

What I enjoy the most is the chance to interact and to influence the lives of students. I have the opportunity to work with students in one of their first nursing courses, Foundations of Professional Nursing. I tell the students at the start of each semester:
This program will change your life. You find yourselves stretched in ways you never thought possible. You will also find yourself accomplishing more that you thought possible and you'll have the opportunity to grow deeper in your relationship with Christ. You are going to change the lives of others. And in the process, you are going to be changed as well.
What I've come to realize is that it's more than the student's lives who are changed. I know that I am changed as well. Each May as they cross the stage to receive their nursing pin, I remember where they were during that first semester. I remember the times I've interacted with them in the classroom, in clinical, in the Nursing Lab, in my office, by email … and even by Facebook. I see dreams that have been realized and the promise of new dreams that have yet to be fulfilled.
What differentiates your program from similar offerings at other colleges?
There are many positive differences between Crown and other colleges:
- Our smaller class size. In the courses I took as a student preparing for my BSN, I was one of over a hundred students. There wasn't time for interaction. Classes were basically lecture and we'd write down notes as fast as we could.
I expect students to come to class prepared and to have read the material ahead of time. But it can be difficult for a student to know how to break down a chapter into what is important. I "scaffold" or outline the chapter for them ahead of time. It helps students to know what to focus on as they read.
I do use lecture, but I also use other learning activities as well, such as:- Small group activities
- Simulation
- You Tube videos
- Case studies
- Real life experiences from my own practice/life as well as what the students are seeing in clinical
- Pictures or mnemonics to describe certain conditions
- Links and focused activities that are available on the web
- I want to be open to the student's questions. If we're not sure about an answer, sometimes we'll look it up together during class. If it's a question that involves a bit more research, I'll send out the information and links to the students after class.
- Many students arrive at college "learning" the way they were taught in high school. But our brains operate / learn in a variety of ways. I work with students to help them develop strategies that will fit the way their brain processes information. It maximizes their learning and their success.
- Reflection is a part of most of my classes. Studies have shown that students who are stronger with reflection do better on their Boards. They also make better nurses. Every three weeks, my students submit a reflection. They look at their strengths, what they are learning, challenges they have faced personally and academically, and where they are spiritually. If they identify a problem, I ask them to look at strategies to help address that need. I want students to write down what is real for them – not what they think they want me to have them write. I read each reflection. I use what they share to pray for them and to better meet them where they are.
- There are great opportunities at Crown to put feet to your faith by participating in cross-cultural experiences. Maybe this means working with elders in a long-term care facility or with families at a local food shelf. Maybe this means a missions trip here within the States or somewhere overseas. These experiences give students the chance to look at the world around them with different eyes. They also begin to see steps they can take to impact the lives of others.
How do you define "Academic Excellence?"
Academic excellence requires action to take place because of an investment and commitment that I've made as well as my students. It is a dynamic partnership that sets the tone for a lifetime of learning.
For my students, it means:
- Having an open attitude towards learning.
- Coming to class prepared.
- Using the resources that are in place to equip them to succeed.
- Giving me their very best.
- Incorporating the feedback I share with them into future assignments and their overall thought process.
As a faculty member, it means:
- Helping them to stay centered in their faith and to continue to keep Christ as their focus.
- Knowing the needs of my students – academically and spiritually.
- Coming to class prepared with information that will equip them to be nurses who care and who provide safe, competent care.
- Providing a variety of different ways for students to "connect" with the information.
- Being honest and real with my students.
- Being open to their questions and frustrations while we move together to where they need to be.
- Giving students the ability to see themselves as leaders and change agents within this profession.
What would your students say about taking your classes?
I set the bar high for my students, but I also provide support for my students to meet that bar. My students know that I care about them. I work to be aware of where they are. This is why I scaffold their courses and provide additional resources for them both in / out of class. This past semester, I felt that students would benefit from some additional support academically so each week, I provided an extra two-hour study session. Students weren't required to attend, but many made the choice to be there. We used the time to focus on content the students were covering in both pharmacology and in their med-surg nursing course.
Our work paid off – the students in my Pharmacology class take a standardized final that is given in nursing programs across the nation. Their average score on this final was 100 points higher than students in other BSN nursing programs across the nation. I see that as an affirmation of the work, effort, preparation, and prayer support each student was willing to put into this class to do their very best.
Sometimes students will say that they have been "Secor-ed" on a quiz – which usually means all the pieces didn't quite come together for them for the score they wanted to receive. And there is a certain "tension" in our classes. Student's goals include successfully passing a quiz or successfully passing a course. My goals for them look more at the long-term – I want to prepare them to thrive in this demanding, chaotic, and life-changing profession. I want to equip them to be leaders. My brother posted this on my Facebook wall in response to my congratulations to the work and accomplishments of our juniors and seniors…it expresses my commitment to each student:
Being "Secor-ed" has come to mean: 1. Prepared me to be the best I can be with God's help. 2. Loved me when I felt all was lost. 3. Mentored me to give everything I had for the sake of God's Kingdom and be His hands and feet among the hurting.
From a career standpoint, what will students be prepared to do with a degree from your program?
Students who graduate from Crown's nursing program are prepared to provide safe, competent care to individuals in a variety of settings – from long-term care to acute care. Each student has also been equipped with skills and training to serve as leaders. They are moving into positions of leadership and management in the workplace. They are pursuing graduate degrees as advanced practice nurses. They are serving over-seas in short-term and long-terms capacities. They are giving of themselves to make a difference in the lives of others.
What would you say to parents of prospective students about having their son/daughter at Crown?
Crown College's nursing program is a place where your son and daughter will:
- Be supported, encouraged, and challenged to grow beyond their expectations.
- Make a difference in the lives of those they encounter in clinical, in their communities, and the world.
- Find opportunities to use their skills, knowledge, caring, and servant leadership to create positive life change to people in a variety of cultures and across the lifespan.
- Develop a deeper insight of the needs of the world and the possibilities within themselves as they look through the eyes of Christ.

Designed by Kiss+Cathcart Architects, Solar 2 is set to become a must-see green destination. The building will have a non-integrated 90 kWh solar canopy that will provide 100 percent of Solar 2′s energy. Non-integration will allow for upgrades as technology advances. The building will also have a green roof to reduce heating and cooling needs while helping to eliminate CO2 and stormwater runoff. In fact, no waste water or stormwater will go to the sewer. It will all be treated on-site in a Living Machine ecosystem that will return the water for use in irrigation and toilets.
Surrounding the building will be a vegetation "green screen," essentially a second skin created of vertical gardens. The plants will provide natural shade in the summer and create a habitat for birds and insects. The basement will have transparent walls to allow visitors to see the geothermal systems and learn how green HVAC systems work. A north-facing skylight and large glare reducing windows will allow for ample daylighting. Hopper windows will be installed to ensure maximum natural ventilation. The building's exterior and interior will be constructed with recycled and renewable materials.
Solar 2 will have outdoor and indoor classrooms, plus a green theater and solar-powered stage where they will host festivals, concerts, and many other performances. The rooftop Eco-Cafe will serve food grown in the center's hydroponic gardens, as well as fair trade, organic treats.
We know the construction team hasn't even picked up their shovels, but we're seriously excited for Solar 2. Now, if we could just get them to add a water taxi stop for easier access!

Homemade ice cream is one of those things that leaves me drooling when I visit other sites. I have so many recipes bookmarked that if I ever bought an ice cream maker I wouldn't even know where to start. The only thing that has kept me from making them is the extra effort it takes to make it yourself, without an ice cream maker. Not that it's hard work, but on hot summer days when we're practically living outside I have no desire to sit inside and babysit my ice cream with a bowl and whisk.
This recipe is the perfect compromise. It takes absolutely no babysitting and is a great alternative for lovers of ice cream who don't have an ice cream maker.
I've seen variations of this ice cream on both Martha Stewart and Good Food. The sweetened condensed milk replaces the typical custard base making this smooth and luxurious as it melts in your mouth. My only issue with it, is that it doesn't soften up as quickly as regular ice cream, so it's a bit hard to scoop. But honestly, there's none of the icy-ness that's usually associated with no-churn ice cream and as soon as you start eating it you won't even think about the fact that it wasn't made in a more traditional way.
I took Martha's basic No-Churn Vanilla Ice Cream added some cream cheese and swirled in some fresh blueberry syrup. It turned out rich, smooth and creamy. Heaven in a cone… or in a bowl. :)
- 200g spreadable cream cheese (about 3/4 cup)
- 1 can (14oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups heavy (whipping) cream, cold
- *3/4 cup blueberry syrup
- In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese until creamy and smooth. Slowly add condensed milk, creaming between each addition to avoid lumps. Stir in vanilla extract and heavy cream. Switch to the whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form when beaters are lifted.
- Spread half into an 8×8 inch, square baking dish. Dollop with half of blueberry syrup. Top with remaining cream mixture, spreading evenly. Dollop with remaining blueberry syrup. Using a knife, swirl the syrup into the cream mixture. Cover with foil and freeze for 6 hours or until firm.
*Here is a recipe for homemade blueberry syrup.
Adapted from Martha Stewart.

Natural Ice is the ONLY such product on the market that gives my lips the protection they need all year round. I am a lung and brain cancer survivor. And with all the various treatments I have been and will continue to be receiving I need all the help I can get. Natural Ice is one such helper.
I use to buy this lip balm at Walgreens. After trying so many different brands of lip chap this was the only one that keep my lips moist without the sticky, shiny look of lip gloss. Walgreens no longer carry this item so i started purchasing it here. This is a great price.
This lip balm is the only one I've found that does not melt at high temperatures and lasts a long time. It is difficult to find in a regular pharmacy.
I only use the classic,especially the spearmint. but i can never get it because i've been told''it's a seasonal product''. if your going to sell a product,please sell all of them. not just specific type. and not make it seasonal.that's not fair to the customer....can i get them at a lower quanity???? instead of a gross? my husband has asked me to switch flavors. ''never in a million years''. i'll only use the spearmint.....

I worked at Family Dollar Stores
ProsThis company has great value to each community, strong values and a great merchandise mix. Family dollar is committed to the metro and urban customers as well as rural towns.
ConsStore payrolls are very tight, expectations are very high and when staffing is not perfect, everyone including the customer suffers. Senior management accepts no excuses and turns people quickly and sometimes for the wrong reason.

- Comp & Benefits

I have been working at Family Dollar Stores part-time (more than a year)
Pros-Your co-workers and associates in the store will become your family in a way, not to mention I have always been greeted with kindness and friendliness in distant Family Dollar Stores if I or they happen to spark a conversation and i mention that i work for Family Dollar also.
-As far as working environments are concerned, this company in the retail stores has one of the best in my personal opinion.
-Benefits are offered for both full and part-time positions.
-Issues within the store between other co-workers are usually resolved very well.
-District Managers are very professional and work with their retail stores as well as possible.
-Raises are given vs. a dead end minimum wage job
Just as a start off note, i have had experience in the past year as a cashier with this company, this is my personal view and i want to share my journey and tips to help anyone possible.
Stores will vary as I have been with two and I have also worked in a different one as well for temporary fill for a day. As a suggestion, if you're interested in working in a particular store and you're not sure about the people there, walk around, shop, take a gander, and listen to how the cashiers, assistant manager, and the manager treats the customers. Watch their work ethic and take that into consideration when applying for a job, because that can make your life harder in the long run. For myself i have had personal experience with that area and it can be difficult, but overtime that issue was resolved, that is why i recommend this company. They have been great in resolving issues.
If you cannot work with the public personality-wise, this job may not be for you, but if you can grin and bear it, give it a shot! You will meet all sorts of people in this type of environment. Nerves will be pushed, yes, but, having the strength and will to manage stocking, greeting customers, taking purchases at the cash register, recovering, and all while being in a fast-paced environment is a great thing.Cons- The computers that run the register can be a consistent issue, the technology needs to be replaced and updated. This would alleviate a lot of issues and problems for the stores and corporate.
-There are no employee discounts, but on the other side, this is one of the very few companies that do offer part-time benefits.
Just a little more advice for you.
When working in this store, as you know the floors are concrete. Wear comfortable and supportive shoes that last you all day, not just a couple of hours. Your hands will dry out between the use of hand sanitizer because of money handling, handling boxes, and shelving other items. I personally keep a bottle of lotion in my designated area to use when possible because my hands can crack, especially in the winter.Advice to ManagementAdvice-Update the computers throughout all stores in the company retail stores. Spending a little bit of money on decent and cheap computers that will run well compared to what is in the stores now would be much better than the current setup.
-Clear communication and instruction to 3rd party workers that come inside the store. I have had to personally do some part of their jobs. Plus having to go back over messy or improperly placed and unfinished work when they are finished. it makes the store look atrocious and causes a lot more hassle.
-Spend a little more time on your retail workers, they are your workforce, I personally don't feel much appreciation coming our way for the hard work that we do, a piece of paper or posting in the office is not that sufficient.RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEO -

In a final tune-up prior to the Touchstone Energy All A Classic State Volleyball Tournament the Trimble County Lady Raiders overcame a determined team of Walton-Verona Lady Bearcats to win 25-21 and 25-23 Thursday at home.
The largest lead of either team was Trimble's 8-2 advantage in the first game. In that contest the score was tied six times. The score was knotted nine times in the second game. Trimble led 24-20 but allowed the Lady Bearcats to score three times to pull within one point, at 24-23, before Trimble closed the door.
The Trimble County Runnin' Raiders have literally been on the run during the past several days competing in three meets around the area. While failing to field enough runners for team scores in the girls' events, Trimble's athletes nevertheless have posted strong individual times. Trimble's boys were also short-handed at the North Central Kentucky Conference meet at Carroll County last Wednesday but rebounded for a strong performance at North Oldham Saturday.
Shelby County Invitational
Trimble County's volleyball team will travel to Jeffersontown, Ky., Saturday to compete in the 2012 Touchstone Energy All A Classic Volleyball Tournament. The appearance will be Trimble County's second consecutive in the elite Sweet Sixteen of class A champions from the 16 regional sites around the state. This year's tournament will be held at the Mid America Volleyball Center in Jeffersontown.
The Trimble County Lady Raiders continue to reign supreme over North Central Kentucky Conference opponents in high school volleyball. Trimble claimed victories last week over Gallatin County (2-0) at home and Owen County (2-1) at Owenton.
It wasn't always pretty, but it was a win.
The Trimble County Lady Raiders managed to pull out a win on the road against the Carroll County Lady Panthers 3-1 Thursday night, despite not playing their 'A' game.
Trimble head coach Ruth Staples said to come out with a win when your team plays bad is "encouraging."
By TODD POLLOCK Special to The Trimble Banner
The Trimble County Middle School football Raiders kicked off their season in grand fashion last Thursday evening when they hosted Carroll County Middle School Panthers. The Raiders routed the Panthers 38-12 by playing exceptionally well on three out of four phases of the game.
Bradey McCane, who leads the offense as quarterback, ran for one touchdown and threw for another to connect with Kaje Brummett.
The 2012 cross country season got underway Saturday for the Trimble County High School harriers who joined with runners from nearly 40 schools in Kentucky and Indiana to compete in the Tiger Run in Louisville. The host school for the event held at Louisville Champions Park was St. Xavier High School.
Although 30 schools managed to field a complete team, Trimble's ladies failed to field enough runners to compile a team score. There were 281 runners who competed in the girls' 5K.
By JAMES LINE The Trimble Banner
Trimble County High School triumphed in its first win of the season, defeating the Clinton County Bulldogs 10 – 8 at home. The game was a golden opportunity to regain momentum after the Raiders' heavy loss at Berea. "We're going to fire off harder, run the ball harder, and hit harder," said sophomore Tyler Kelley before the game. "We need to keep it physical." Senior Trent Taylor added, "We have to step up and stay together as a team."
The Trimble County Lady Raiders captured their second consecutive 8th Region All A Classic tournament title over the weekend.
Following on the heels of a near upset of Oldham County last Thursday, Trimble handily dispensed with Gallatin County, 25-13 and 25-15, in the opening round of the tournament played at Eminence on Saturday.
Other first round matches saw Carroll County defeating Owen County, 25-23 and 25-10; and Eminence went the distance in two games before escaping with a win, 25-22 and 26-24, over Williamstown.

Alleged Poor Tactical Decisions or Judgments No Legal Basis for Federal Criminal Charges
United States Attorney Jeffrey C. Sullivan announced today that after an extensive review of the facts and federal criminal statutes, he is declining to file federal criminal charges against any law enforcement officers involved in the March 1, 2006, shooting in the rental car parking lot of the Homer Alaska Municipal Airport. Fugitive Jason Karlo Jacob Anderson died in the shootout, after badly injuring his two-year-old son by shooting the child in the face. The United States Attorney for the Western District of Washington was asked to review the Alaska State Troopers investigation for possible federal charges after the U.S. Attorney's Office in Alaska was recused from the case.
"There is no question that the events of March 1, 2006, were a tragedy," said U.S. Attorney Sullivan, "But it was a tragedy of Jason Anderson's own making. It was Jason Anderson who shot his son, fired at officers, and then killed himself. With 20/20 hindsight we can all see ways that law enforcement could have improved their apprehension plan. But none of us were in their shoes, making decisions minute to minute. And none of us know what the outcome might have been, had they allowed Jason Anderson to drive out of that parking lot. Anderson was a ticking time bomb, who could have injured or killed more innocent people in his efforts to avoid apprehension."
The United States Attorney's Office for the Western District of Washington reviewed more than two thousand documents generated by the investigation of the Alaska State Troopers and the Alaska Bureau of Investigation. These included the transcribed interviews of digital recordings of more than thirty witnesses. The Assistant United States Attorney assigned to the case evaluated all the facts in the case in light of the federal statutes available for prosecution. The United States Attorney's Office has provided appropriate authorities with a 57 page memo detailing what happened in the Anderson investigation and shooting, and fully explores which federal statutes might be appropriate for prosecution. In the final analysis, the report concludes there is no reason to believe that any law enforcement officer acted willfully to violate the civil rights of Anderson or his son.
One critical question for federal prosecutors is whether the actions on March 1, 2006, constituted a violation of Fourth Amendment protections against unreasonable seizures. The case law in the 9th Circuit states clearly: "Our precedents do not forbid any consideration of events leading up to a shooting. But neither do they permit a plaintiff to establish a Fourth Amendment violation based merely on bad tactics that result in a deadly confrontation that could have been avoided." In this case, a Fourth Amendment violation is not established and no federal criminal charges are warranted.
The Federal Privacy Act prohibits the U.S. Attorney's Office from releasing the memo in its entirety. Today we are providing an Executive Summary that details the federal laws that apply to this case and the legal analysis. The U.S. Attorney's Office provided the complete report and decision today to Alaska U.S. Attorney Nelson Cohen, the U.S. Marshal Service, the Alaska State Troopers, and the Alaska Office of the Attorney General. The Department of Justice Civil Rights Division reviewed the report prior to its release.
For additional information please contact Emily Langlie, Public Affairs Officer for the United States Attorney's Office, at (206) 553-4110.

Obamacare Begins Child Sterilization, Without Parental Consent Comments
With back-to-school season in full swing across the nation, parents in Oregon have more to worry about than shopping for sweaters and purchasing pencils. In the state of Oregon, the Obamacare mandate, which went into effect on August 1, 2012, provides free sterilizations to girls as young as fifteen. Now, your daughter, your high school freshman, can choose, without your consent, to be permanently sterilized. Continue Reading

What can be decided at the family level should not be decided upon by the government.
^^^ I hope that statement also applies to those who decide to marry their committed, same sex partner. Oh wait, the gov't is trying to decide if that is ok, too.
Sterilization is an evil that has no place in healthcare, ever.
^^^^ Love the generalizations. You do know that sometimes sterilization is life-saving, not only for the adults who choose to undergo the procedure, but also for any future kids who might be born to someone who doesn't want them?
I had my tubes tied after my 2nd child with zero regrets. Had I become pregnant with a 3rd I would have strongly considered an abortion. thankfully my Catholic hospital "decided for me" that I was "approved" for my tubal (you know, because I would have changed hospitals anyway had they thought they were able to make that choice for me).
While I don't think a big decision should be made so young, some people DO know they don't want kids ever. They should be allowed to choose that for themselves (preferably with parental involvement). -

We hear about the "slippery slope" of certain policies and ideas, which sound good at first but then become intrusive. In my opinion "allowing" teens and young adults to sterilize themselves will definitely become a policy which requires that they be sterilized, especially in certain socio-economic groups. It was Margaret Sanger who said that her goal was to get rid of the excess population, meaning the poor, new immigrants, and minorities. Hitler got his ideas of sterilization, eugenics and genocide ideas from Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood. In my opinion, Planned Parenthood needs to be defunded at every level of government with a goal to put it out of business.

I am saddened that the federal and local governments are encouraging a wedge between children and their parents. It concerns me that my children can go to school and be "informed" and encouraged to solicite advise from strangers who do not have their best interests at heart...and call it freedom. I'm alarmed that they can be led to a clinic and receive counseling that paints me, their parent, as an individual who is an obstacle to their free will. I love my children. I want the best for them. Why are we as parents slated as the ones to deceive. We are the ones who have been there, and will continue to be there, long after any procedure is finished...sometimes not knowing the pain and guilt our children are bearing alone.
I believe in family, community, volunteering, stewardship, giving back and paying forward. I believe in accountability and taking responsiblity for one's actions, good or bad.
I am doing everything I can to encourage my children to come to me with ANYTHING that they are struggling with, so we can talk it through, examine the facts, and explore the consequences.
We all have free will. Our country allows us free choice. I am doing my best to remind my children that we are only free to live with the consequences of our choices.
This type of legislature undermines that work I am doing as a parent. -

I cannot disagree with this enough. Are we now in a world where you can determine fertility --quite literally the birthright of humankind--at only 15?

I would expect this website to retract this false article since it states this started in August of 2012 because of Obamacare but if you look at the form itself, it was REVISED in July of 2011 which means it is even older than July 2011.
Why wouldn't a religious website care about truth? -

If you had criticized the State of Oregon for enacting such a law, I would have stood with you.
But instead the article dishonestly misleads the careless reader into believing that this practice has been created and enacted by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act enacted by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by the President, which is not true.
If Oregon had this law on their books before the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was passed, then what has changed? And how can the Federal Government be criticized for whatever laws Oregon citizens have on their books? I fail to see the connection. If Oregon citizens don't like their own laws, they are the only ones that can change them. You might instead have encouraged Oregon voters to revoke this law. That would have been more intellectually honest.
I am disappointed in you. -

This article is so grossly misleading. Obama's health plan did not herald in some kind of sinister plan to sterilize children. The problem is with Oregon's STATE laws that allows for any medical procedure without parental consent at those ages. And those laws have been in effect for years and years, long before Obama's term or the (often life-saving!) medical plan he drafted was passed into law. Moreover, the lack of common sense in this article is appalling. How many girls do you know who would go SEEK OUT a sterilization? The odds that this would occur anyway are slim, not only because girls wouldn't want this procedure but also because DOCTORS WOULDN'T GIVE IT. For almost any woman (in her twenties, thirties, forties, etc.) who seeks tubal litigation or similar, the doctor makes sure there is a very good, valid reason. Sterilization is not taken lightly. Just because services such as this can now be provided for "free," DOES NOT mean that they WILL be utilized, or that they will be provided injudiciously. That religious folk take issue with a healthcare plan that offers such tremendous good to people who could otherwise never afford health services, labeling it as "evil," makes me very, very sad and angry. Of course most parents would want their son or daughter to go out and get sterilized. But Obama's healthcare plan is in no way recommending or endorsing such! My goodness. And people, if you don't want your kids to go out and do crazy things without your consent, why don't you raise them in such a way that they will be unlikely to do so? I completely, wholeheartedly disagree with the views expressed in this article and really hope that religious people are educating themselves on all the facts and not subscribing to such outlandish views, though I doubt it. Healthcare for the poor. That's what Catholics should be striving for, yes? I would hope to God so.

I am astounded when liberal nod their heads like sheep and pretend Jesus Christ, who spoke about slothfullness, and commended even the ant for working diligently, and whobtold us that " if a man will not work,neither shall he eat" -supposedly told us it is good to pillage the man who works and steal from him in order to feed the welfare crowd? Liberals cherry pick from scriptures they heard from politicians, scriptures that are either so grotesquely misinterpreted or intentionally invented they cannot resemble the heart of Christ. How is it that my God, who called me to take care of my own detests me so much that He would pillage my earnes income to give to some random person who exemplified laziness, selfishness, idleness, gluttony, and slothfull lifestyles? That would mean God could not be trusted to go against his own words! Who is my government to decide what I might or might not have left to fund others with? Who is Obama to twist the words of God so as to justify theft and debauchery, or hideous behaviors such as sterilization of young girls? If a person, liberal or not, cannot see that this man is diameteically opposed to the words of the Most High God, they might need concern for their own eternity. There has never been a more vile leader in this country. The only ones woelrse in the world are imfamous for some of the same heinous sins. Obamacare though in its infancy has already cost our special needs family more than a36% increase in premiums, not to mention less items covered by the policy, less items covered by our own money in the medical savings plan account, and special supplements we can't afford due to the increases. Its ALREADY harming the average family! So no, don't sugar coat the bovine effluent and pretend Obama has done any good at all. Because at the end of the day the very bedrock of society, those whose ancestors and family have shed blood to sustain our freedoms, those folks hear the sound of their breaking back. We look around to see Obama standing on it.

This article is very misleading and gives Christians a bad name. In your effort to make Obamacare look bad and feed the hatred people have for our leader you've made yourself look incompetent. This article isn't about Obamacare, it's about Oregon's STATE laws. The people to blame for this madness are the Oregon state legislators, NOT Obama. Quit with the mud slinging and start giving people a reason to vote FOR Romney, not against Obama.

I wasn't able to attend the Consumer Electronics Show this year so I appreciated Visteon's invitation to tour their CES exhibit at their headquarters near Detroit. Highlights included their C-Beyond and Growth Market demo vehicles, but I was also intrigued by an application that helps vehicle occupants find the music they like wherever they are.
Visteon says its C-Beyond vehicle includes more than 40 innovations in interiors, electronics, climate and lighting. Most noticeably, Visteon engineers replaced traditional instrument panel climate registers with four roof-mounted registers that direct air flow from the ceiling to the floor. The design frees-up considerable space in the cockpit area and gives the vehicle a more roomy feel that is enhanced by ambient lighting.
The Growth Market car, developed jointly with 3M and targeting consumers in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, and South America, features a very large mostly touch-screen control panel and more interior space than one might expect. The car's headlights, door handles, and center stack are highlighted with 3M Light String technology, which has a single core fiber with a transparent polymer that converts limited light from a LED into a longer, more uniform light guide.
Besides the cars, Visteon showed a "Wall of Apps" for telematics and infotainment, scalable platforms based on various operating systems and microcontrollers, and a wide range of components representing each of its application categories (interiors, electronics, climate, and lighting).
And on top of all that, Visteon created an application called TerreNet (TNet) for the convenience of drivers and passengers with particular tastes in infotainment. As with Internet radio services like Pandora and Slacker, users create a profile to chart their preferences, and that's fine in the car as long as the vehicle can hold an Internet connection or the vehicle occupants' attention. TNet promises something similar on terrestrial FM radio. Basically, it knows what kind(s) of music (or sports or talk format) vehicle occupants like, and also knows what is playing on which stations in any geographic area. No more fiddling with the radio dial to find something to listen to – TNet does the fiddling for you. I didn't try it out, but the concept sounds promising. We shall see if automakers pick it up. Meanwhile, Visteon is considering a TNet smartphone app.

KIPS is a convenient, reliable, evidence-based tool to effectively measure parenting behaviors. Family service programs commonly aim to enhance parenting to promote children's development. However, few programs directly assess parenting behavior. By assessing parenting, you can tailor services to individual families, track parenting progress, and document program outcomes.
1. Sensitivity of Responses2. Supports Emotions3. Physical Interaction4. Involvement in Child's Activities5. Open to Child's Agenda6. Engagement in Language Experiences7. Reasonable Expectations8. Adapts Strategies to Child9. Limits & Consequences10. Supportive Directions11. Encouragement12. Promotes Exploration & Curiosity
Since KIPS is used to observe caregiver-child play, it is well received by families and children. KIPS assesses a caregiver (e.g. parent, other family member) interacting with a child. The observation requires only 20 minutes (15 minutes of free play and 5 minutes of clean up, if appropriate). Scoring takes only 10 minutes. To assure reliability, we recommend that you videotape the play session and score later.
12 KIPS items use 1 to 5 quality ratings with behavioral anchors

This recently, I have been affected by my kneecap acute pain as well as coughing and flu. It caused me to require good sleep. And I must tell you that it felt really good to sleep! Also, I must say that glucosamine works wonder to my kneecap! Nevertheless, I have neglected my projects a little and I must continue to finish them one at a time.
But I have not failed to buy yet another 1200 stock images at a really good Christmas deal from sitepoint! It costs around $60 only!
The recent decision from Google to stop offering free accounts to Google Apps was really a bad news for the startups. I know many of my entrepreneurial friends told me that this shouldn't be a barrier at all. It should part of the entire eco system in the business. The point that I wanted to drive is that whenever I help my friends to set up their hosting and email, they wouldn't have thought that they will pay a separate dollar to enjoy gmail features for their email accounts. Now, I have to think of another solution for them to access their email accounts with ease everywhere they go… No matter how I try to convince them that they should get a Google App, the thought of saying a few dollars a month is just putting them off.
