Mission: The dedicated Political Opportunity Program (POP) team hits the road every week to recruit, train, and support women candidates – knowing that a key reason women hesitate to run for office is because they simply haven't been asked. POP identifies tomorrow's political leaders – and we ask! POP's goal is a steady and sustainable increase of women in the political pipeline, where they gain the leadership and legislative skills necessary to be effective in their current offices and – if they wish – prepare for statewide or federal campaigns. Yes, we're building a farm team, but by helping women win key races up and down the ballot – the legislators who write laws, the attorneys general who defend and enforce them, the secretaries of state who oversee their states' elections – POP also helps put women in charge of the decisions that affect each of us, every day.

Running to Govern
Works with: We will recruit candidates who are fully committed to good politics and effective policy. A candidate will never be able to govern if they don't win. Conversely they cannot govern effectively if they run a divisive campaign full of empty promises.
Mission: Running to Govern was founded to recruit, train, support, and hold accountable a new generation of elected leaders who are committed to effective and responsible governance. We are all-partisan and believe that there is nothing inherently wrong with politics or partisanship. What is wrong, however, is when politics and partisanship turn legislating and governing into a zero-sum game. Even if just a few far-sighted leaders are successful by taking a different path others will follow.

Fundraiser helps new learning center offset costs
Written by Deborah Patterson Tuesday, November 06, 2012 02:34 pm
< Prev | Next > |
CORBIN CITY – Fundraisers are a staple in many communities for organizations to get, well, funds to purchase much needed items, to keep things going or to help pay for the replacement of things running down.
Abundant Life Church Learning Center in Seaville is no exception. The center held a fundraiser on Saturday, Nov. 3 at The Buck Tavern, Rt. 50 in Corbin City, to raise money they will use toward the purchase of more school supplies for their increasing enrollment, and to offset some of the start up costs.
My friend Diane Thompson, of Seaville, invited me to go so I grabbed my camera and took some pictures. While I was there it was nice to see all of the support from families and friends of the employees, but also the families of the students.
Jen Gillespie was already enjoying the buffet when I arrived and the first thing I said to her was "I miss Zumba." While "Frankenstorm Sandy" closed Upper Township schools, the Zumba classes I attend were cancelled. I feel like a slug. Lynn Sooy was also there and I got to see her newborn Pauly.
Jeannette Haynes and I talked books like we always do. She said she thoroughly enjoyed my latest recommendation, "Outlander" by Diana Gabaldon, so much that she is now reading the sequel. I told her I was rereading Tolkien's "The Hobbit" in anticipation of Peter Jackson's movie release this December.
Barbara Baum and Jane Guyon were working the front door, where you could purchase tickets for their Chinese Auction. Lots of gifts were donated, many appropriately for children, but Diane won a beautiful basket full of Christmas decorations and holiday-themed items.
Greg and Meghan Guyon were helping seat people and clear tables as was Paul Devine. Rob Ohlsen, the owner of The Buck Tavern, was serving at the buffet along with his daughter Christina and Kathy Mason.
I also saw Courtney Smith with her three children and Barbara Foster enjoying the evening.
The night turned out to be a big success with many happy children getting to see their classmates outside the school environment. I wouldn't be surprised if the school plans another get-together for just that reason.

For all of you lucky people living in the great city of New York, here are two fantastic upcoming events that you should try and attend.
First off, next Thursday, February 21st at 7pm at McNally Jackson, Stephen Snyder and Allison Markin Powell (both of whom make me swoon) will be talking about Japanese literature in translation as part of the always excellent Bridge Series.
Here's a bit about both Stephen and Allison:
Stephen Snyder is Kawashima Professor of Japanese Studies at Middlebury College in Vermont. His most recent translation is Yoko Ogawa's Revenge: Eleven Dark Tales (Picador, January 2013). He has translated works by Ogawa, Kenzaburo Oe, Ryu Murakami, and Miri Yu, among others. His translation of Kunio Tsuji's Azuchi Okanki (The Signore) won the 1990 Japan-U.S. Friendship Commission translation prize. His translation of Natsuo Kirino's Out was a finalist for the Edgar Award for best mystery novel in 2004. His translation of Yoko Ogawa's Hotel Iris was short-listed for the Man Asian Literary Prize in 2011. He is the author of Fictions of Desire: Narrative Form in the Novels of Nagai Kafu and co-editor of Oe and Beyond: Fiction in Contemporary Japan, and he is currently working on a study of publishing practices in Japan and the United States and their effects on the globalization of Japanese literature.
Allison Markin Powell is a literary translator and editor. She has translated works by Motoyuki Shibata, Osamu Dazai (Schoolgirl, published by One Peace Books in 2011), and Hiromi Kawakami, among others, and was the guest editor for Words Without Borders' first Japan issue. Her translation of Kawakami's novel The Briefcase (Counterpoint, 2012) has been shortlisted for the 2012 Man Asian Prize.
I'll bet this will be fantastic . . . really bummed that I'm only staying in NY through Wednesday night. And we'll have a review of The Briefcase soon. I quite liked Hiromi Kawakami's earlier novel, Manazuru, so I'm psyched to check this out. And Ogawa's Revenge is top of my to read pile thanks to Will's review.
Also next weekend, the Fourth Annual Festival Neue Literature celebrating German-language literature will be taking place across Manhattan and Brooklyn. This year's festival is curated by Susan Bernofsky and will feature Clemens Setz (Austria), Cornelia Travnicek (Austria), Leif Randt (Germany), Silke Scheuermann (Germany), Ulrike Ulrich (Switzerland), and Tim Krohn (Switzerland), as well as U.S. authors Joshua Ferris and Justin Taylor.
There are two "signature discussion panels" taking place this year: "Closed Circuits: Shrunken Dystopias" and "Breaking Away: Contemporary Travelogues." Here's all the info about both of those:
Closed Circuits: Shrunken Dystopias
Saturday, February 23rd.
6:30-8:30pm @ powerHouse Arena
37 Main Street, Brooklyn
With authors Leif Randt, Silke Scheuermann, Clemens Setz, and Justin Taylor
Dystopias used to be grand affairs, encompassing entire planets, but now you can find one contained in a suburban block on the outskirts of Frankfurt, an uncannily odd resort town in a mysterious locale, or a home for children suffering the world's strangest disorder. Dysfunction is the new dystopia, and these subtly wry to bitingly ironic commentaries uniquely encapsulate the post-modern condition.
Moderated by Susan Bernofsky
Breaking Away: Contemporary Travelogues
Sunday, February 24th
McNally Jackson Bookstore
52 Prince Street, Manhattan
With authors Tim Krohn, Cornelia Travnicek, Ulrike Ulrich, Joshua Ferris
Here today, there tomorrow. Old-style travel stories seemed always to be about characters in search of themselves as inscribed in foreign landscapes. But what if the point of the travel is more escapist than exploratory? In these novels of discovery-avoidance – an avoidance not always successful – the journey is both more and less than a destination.
Moderated by Claudia Steinberg
You can find the complete schedule of events here.
The last five days of the eleventh-century Icelandic politician, writer of sagas, and famous murder victim Snorri Sturleleson (the Norwegian spelling, Snorre, is preserved in the book) make up Thorvald Steen's most recently translated historical fiction, The Little Horse. Murdered. . .
We all know Paris, or at least we think we know it. The Eiffel Tower. The Latin Quarter. The Champs-Élysées. The touristy stuff. In Dominique Fabre's novel, Guys Like Me, we're shown a different side of Paris: a gray, decaying. . .
One hundred pages into Birth of a Bridge, the prize-winning novel from French writer Maylis de Kerangal, the narrator describes how starting in November, birds come to nest in the wetlands of the fictional city of Coca, California, for three. . .
At 30, the Mexican writer Valeria Luiselli is already gathering her rosebuds. Faces in the Crowd, her poised debut novel, was published by Coffee House Press, along with her Brodsky-infused essay collection, Sidewalks. The essays stand as a theoretical map. . .
Fantomas Versus the Multinational Vampires: An Attainable Utopia (narrated by Julio Cortázar) is, not disappointingly, as wild a book as its title suggests. It is a half-novella half-graphic novel story about . . . what, exactly? A European tribunal, Latin. . .
Marie NDiaye has created a tiny, psychological masterpiece with her Self-Portrait in Green. In it she explores how our private fears and insecurities can distort what we believe to be real and can cause us to sabotage our intimate relationships.. . .
Reading a genre book—whether fantasy, science fiction, crime, thriller, etc.—which begins to seem excessively, stereotypically bad, I have to make sure to ask myself: is this parodying the flaws of the genre? Usually, this questioning takes its time coming. In. . .

5 Yr. Old Daughter Daydreams in Class
My daughter's preschool teacher says she day dreams and looks around and doesn't do her work unless she gets on to her to do it. She takes her time on her work and is usually the last one that finishes. I don't if it's b/c she doesn't want to do it or what. Can someone help me? It's like she's in another world, from what her teacher says. She went to the evaluation center and they said she's fine. Hopefully it won't have any effect when she starts kindergarten this coming year.

Hey N. -
I was diagnosed with ADD at that age for the exact type of behavior. Maybe have her evaluated? But try not to squelch the daydreaming all the way... I'm a successful writer now because I was given the opportunity to be in "my own world" and hone my creative thinking. It might look like she's not doing anything... but in reality her mind is very busy. Give her space to do this if its not hindering anything. As for school.... she's gotta to work and pay attention to pass, I'd suggest an evaluation and that might help.
Best of luck!!

M.L. answers from Oklahoma City on April 27, 2010
It could just be the way she is. One of my girls had a similar issue, especially during K and 1st grades. She simply took her time, or would wait until someone noticed that she didn't have a pencil instead of asking for one (she didn't want to bother anyone).
As a 4th grader now, she still will move at her own pace, but has realized that she will miss out if she does not complete her assignments when told.
She would take her time to do a lot of tasks, not just school related ones. We joked that it was Sami speed and she would get to where she needed to be when it was time for her to get there. While frustrating for me, especially in the mornings when rushing to school, I have found that it is easier to accept it and embrace it as part of her personality.

L.O. answers from Chicago on April 24, 2010
I was like that, but I was exceedingly bored. I had the textbooks all figured out the first week of school and so slacked off in school after that. My mother got me extra workbooks to challenge me at home, but the school work was boring, so she compromised with me so I could have my challenges, and please the teachers.
I have a relative that has an absence spell disorder treated with medication(not common, but easily treatable), but it sounds more like boredom from your description of it. Talk with your daughter in a positive intelligent manner and let her know your concerns, and perhaps she will let you know so you both can work through this.
B.C. answers from Norfolk on April 24, 2010
It could be a lot of things. If she's gifted, she could be bored if the work is too easy for her. Or she might have a focusing/concentration issue. Is she easily distracted? Has she had her eyes/ears checked? My son was having a hard time seeing the board across the class room until he got glasses. A hearing problem might mean she's not sure what the teacher wants her to do until the teacher specifically tells her.
W.Q. answers from Tulsa on April 25, 2010
Hi N.,
You don't say her age or how long this has been going on. It might simply be a phase she is going through. I can remember daydreaming during school...not very often, but some of them are still clear today. (I'm 57)
If this is an extreme problem though I'd suggest having her checked out by a psychologist. A psychologist can tell you, after a few simple tests, if your daughter is simply a dreamer or if there is a problem. It wouldn't hurt to remove all doubt or concerns of something else being the problem.
My son is a dreamer. It wasn't until he was a tween that we discovered that he has Asperger's Syndrome Disorder, a form of Autisim...early on he was diagnosed as having ADHD only. I am in no way suggesting that your dauhter has a mental illness. I'm simply suggesting that you rule out any possiilities.
I must add that I'm not quite sure if I would have taken another person's advice about seeking help with someone other than our family doctor. Hindsight being perfect, I should have taken him to a specialist long before I did. Our family doctor wasn't trained in recognizing the subtle signs of something other than a physical ailment.
I'm hoping that it's just a stage with your daughter, or maybe her work is too easy and she just is bored with doing it...thus the daydreaming. She may be gifted...something else that a psycholigist can determine.
Don't squelch her daydreaming...it makes for a very creative mind. Be her advocate and uncover the underlying reason. Needing glasses or a hearing aide, boredom, health (physical or mental), even where she sits in her class, could be the reason for her daydreaming or appearance of not participating. Simple tests can be done to determine your child's needs and it could be just a simple fix and all your worries will disappear. Well...you are a mom...at least your worries will diminish about this aspect of your daughter's life.
Good luck and God bless.
D.D. answers from Pittsburgh on April 24, 2010
I have to agree with many of the other posters, your daughter is likely bored. If she does understand the work and get's it done correctly, then yep.. she is bored. Last year when my daughter was in kindergarten, I was always getting called for her falling asleep or talking too much. Turns out it was the teacher. My child was bored to sleep or to just find her own stimulating conversation. It was not until this year in first grade, when my daughter has a fabulous teacher that I realize just how much her kindergarten teacher was lacking. I am not saying it is all the teachers fault, I would just say that perhaps your daughter is not being challenged by the activities the teachers have prepared.
A.H. answers from New York on April 24, 2010
maybe the teacher is boring.. not keeping her attention. When she watches a tv show that she likes.. does she really watch it.. not put on something she may not like ... like the news... tell her to watch it.. see if she is day dreaming... it may be the teacher isn't keeping her attention... next year ask for an interesting teacher.. tell the principal what your child is like.. and she needs someone to be fascinating... good luck

Yields: 48 cookies
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 3 cup(s) all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon(s) baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1/2 cup(s) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 4 tablespoon(s) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1.5 cup(s) light brown sugar, firmly packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup(s) almond butter
- 1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) pure almond extract
- 1/2 cup(s) sliced almonds, crushed
- 1 cup(s) sugar
- 2 tablespoon(s) honey
- 1/4 cup(s) heavy cream
- Make the dough: Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside. Using a mixer set on medium speed, cream 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually adding the brown sugar, continue beating butter until sugar is incorporated. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. Add the almond butter, vanilla, and almond extract and mix thoroughly. Reduce mixer speed to low, add the flour mixture, and mix until combined. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.
- Bake the cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Pour crushed almonds into a shallow dish and set aside. Line two baking pans with parchment paper. Let dough come to room temperature. Shape the dough into 1 1/2-teaspoonful balls; roll dough balls in the almonds, place on the prepared baking pans, and press an indentation into the center of each ball. Chill for 10 minutes. Bake for 8 minutes, remove pans from the oven, indent the cookies again, and continue to bake until lightly browned and firm -- about 8 more minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.
- Make the caramel centers: Combine sugar, 1/4 cup water, and honey in a heavy saucepan. Cook mixture over high heat until it reaches a dark-amber color -- about 12 minutes. Stir in remaining butter and cream and cool. Spoon about 1 teaspoon soft caramel into the center of each cookie. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

We've just returned to our hotel room after CES Unveiled, a sneak peek intended to highlight the best of show. Tthe urge to be downbeat is strong: there wasn't a lot of spectacular stuff on display. Hard times call for austerity, folks. These things are frivolous luxuries, right? Right.
Highlights included a convertible tablet netbook from Asus, an ultra-realistic Guitar Hero game controller from Logitech, and a handset from Krone that converts English to sign language. Then there were many tables of nothing much memorable.
Xeni and Joel took up the slack, recording footage for Boing Boing Video. In a brief face-to-face interview, Joel convinced Consumer Electronics Association CEO Gary Shapiro to anoint him the Official King of CES. Shapiro smiled and extended his hand like a sword, gently dubbing him on the shoulder.
It seemed almost plaintive, but why shouldn't he play along? He was promoting the show, his life's work.
When we filtered out of the hotel, long rows of taxis waited to take us back to our pad: a rare convenience during CES week.
It'd be easy to write the same "recession-hit CES" story that you'll find elsewhere. It'd be easy to take gleeful pleasure in charting the show's decline. The fact that this would be so much fun, to writer and reader alike, is not a good thing.
We shouldn't enjoy it when the things we love aren't popular. And what the consumer electronics industry sells isn't very popular right now.
Gadget blogging's always been laden with snark; its the internet's motherlode of the stuff. It won't stop, either: it's our fluent language, a fair response to the subordination of innovation to business. But when tens of thousands of jobs will likely be lost in the coming months, what's the point in kicking the trade when it's down?
It's time to have a little hope, and to find things to be positive about.
A year ago, an expensive gizmo that does nothing more complicated than display a picture of someone's hands could easily have been mocked or ignored. This device, however, permits communication between a frustrated parent and a disabled child. It's the application of technology to solve a problem. Its value transcends its specifications.
It works, it's wonderful, and it's yours, for $200.
Just a luxury, right?

STANFORD, Calif. -- Stanford kicked off its second spring session after a three-week break this week, and here are some notes from the Pac-12 blog's visit on Thursday.
- And the first quarterback of the post-Andrew Luck Era is ... Yeah, right. It's likely going to be either junior Brett Nottingham or senior Josh Nunes, but coach David Shaw said the competition will extend into fall camp. "I want them to finish spring in competition mode. And I want them to start fall camp in competition mode," he said. "I don't want to name a starter the week of the first game. I'd like to do it before that so we can start to settle in." Shaw called the competition "Neck and neck."
- A recurring theme from the coaches -- Shaw and both coordinators -- is that members of the 2012 recruiting class are going to play in the fall. Several, in fact. Particularly in need areas such as the offensive line and secondary. Yes, those touted frosh O-linemen are going to see immediate action.
- As for the competition among existing players to replace left tackle Jonathan Martin and right guard David DeCastro, those spots are still up in the air. Brendon Austin and Cole Underwood are in the mix at LT, and Khalil Wilkes and Kevin Danser are in a battle for DeCastro's guard spot.
- Talented sophomore James Vaughters will get on the field, and don't be surprised if he ends up at inside linebacker. At least, that seems to be where defensive coordinator Derek Mason envisions him at present. Part of this appears to be his comfort with Kevin Anderson, who's been playing defensive end, and Alex Debniak backing up outside 'backers Trent Murphy and Chase Thomas.
- By the way, Mason loves his linebacker depth. He said as many as 10 could play in the Cardinal's 3-4 next year.
- Henry Anderson and Josh Mauro are locked in a tough competition to replace underrated defensive end Matt Masifilo.
- The Cardinal need to replace both starting safeties. The name that comes up the most is Ed Reynolds, who was out last season with a knee injury. Jordan Richards, Kyle Olugbode and Devon Carrington are in the mix also, but Mason doesn't hesitate to bring up incoming freshmen Drew Madhu and Zach Hoffpauir.
- It's pretty clear that the not-entirely-unreasonable questioning of whether Stanford can remain an elite team post-Andrew Luck is serving as motivation in the locker room. While the topic is hardly obsessed over, it's also fair to say everyone is aware of the widespread doubts heading into 2012.

EUGENE, Ore. — Athletes from across the country are making their way to Eugene this week for the NCAA Track and Field Championships, which begin Wednesday.
The championships draw large crowds and hundreds of athletes. Travel Lane County says when people are staying hotels, eating at restaurants and just checking out the town, they boost our economy.
"This is traditionally an event that does bring in significant numbers of people, and significant impacts outside of an olympic trials event," said Lisa Lawton, Travel Lane County Director of Community Relations.
Travel Lane County expects the championship to bring in about $6.4 million. It doesn't start until Wednesday, but athletes, coaches and fans are already pouring into Eugene to prepare for the competition.
"Cornell, Dartmouth, North Carolina, Washington, San Diego State, UTEP–I mean, you hit every corner of the country," said Sam Seemes, U.S. Track & Field & Cross Country Coaches Association CEO.
The hotels are filling up fast too.
"We have a few rooms here and there but most of the major hotels are pretty well full. But again we're tracking cancellations and occasionally rooms blocks will open up," Dawton said.
Travel Lane County is prepared to showcase the area and plans to set up booths in some of the hotels.
For some athletes, the Pacific Northwest is a nice change of scenery.
Lubbock is kind of a flat dry desert, so when you get up here it's definitely a change, but it's a neat experience," said Joshua Weldon, Texas Tech thrower.
"I get excited when I think about it. And I mean, being my first time being here, I know I just want to get on the track and show my tail," said James Harris, Florida State three-event athlete.
"Since it's Track Town, I guess it's going to be a really exciting meet. Everybody's going to be there watching, so that's kind of nerve wracking as well," said Cierra White, Texas Tech sprinter.
And most have one goal in mind.
"Get first of course, of course. Big throws. Have a great competition, hope everybody the best but oh yeah main goal is definitely to win," Weldon said.
Travel Lane County says some teams even stay after the competition to sight see around Eugene, and that only helps boost the economy even more.

The USGA's recent announcement that one of its oldest championships, the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship, would be eliminated after 2014 [2] caught a lot of people off guard, including some of the event's most prominent past champions.
"I must say I was definitely caught by surprise," said Trevor Immelman, who won the Pub Links at Torrey Pines in 1998." After reading through the release I understand what they're saying. Back in the day, the Pub Links was for people who were not members of the USGA because only members of the USGA were allowed to enter the U.S. Amateur. Now that all those rules have changed and anyone can enter the U.S. Amateur and compete, there really is no need for the Pub Links. But, man, there is such a great history behind that tournament."
Brandt Snedeker, Ryan Moore, Billy Mayfair, Tim Clark and D.J. Trahan all won the Pub Links, but the event also showcased such colorful champions as Omer Bogen and Smiley Quick. Reactions have varied, but all living champions are wistful that an event dating back to 1922 is being kicked to the curb.
"I'm sure they have their reasons," Immelman said. "Maybe the casual observer doesn't realize how many tournaments they put on between the men's and women's Amateurs, the U.S. Junior, the Mid-Amateurs, it is quite a busy schedule, so I guess they're trying to figure out what to keep and what to get rid of so they can grow. That's the tricky part. Change is difficult for everybody. [The Pub Links] is almost 100 years, so that part of it is tricky, because people obviously have an emotional attachment to it."

"Read-i-cide"" n: The systematic killing of the love of reading, often exacerbated by the inane, mind-numbing practices found in schools. " Reading is dying in our schools. Educators are familiar with many of the factors that have contributed to the decline--poverty, second-language issues, and the ever-expanding choices of electronic entertainment. In this provocative new book, Kelly Gallagher suggests, however, that it is time to recognize a new and significant contributor to the death of reading: our schools. In" Readicide, "Kelly argues that American schools are actively (though unwittingly) furthering the decline of reading. Specifically, he contends that the standard instructional practices used in most schools are killing reading by: - valuing the development of test-takers over the development of lifelong readers; - mandating breadth over depth in instruction; - requiring students to read difficult texts without proper instructional support; - insisting that students focus solely on academic texts; - drowning great books with sticky notes, double-entry journals, and marginalia; - ignoring the importance of developing recreational reading; and - losing sight of authentic instruction in the shadow of political pressures. Kelly doesn't settle for only identifying the problems. "Readicide" provides teachers, literacy coaches, and administrators with specific steps to reverse the downward spiral in reading--steps that will help prevent the loss of another generation of readers.

Radioactivity level spikes 6,500 times at Fukushima well
Posted By admin On October 18, 2013 @ 4:48 am In Featured Stories,Tile,World News | Comments Disabled
October 18, 2013
Radioactivity levels in a well near a storage tank at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan have risen immensely on Thursday, the plant's operator has reported.
Officials of the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) said on Friday they detected 400,000 becquerels per liter of beta ray-emitting radioactive substances – including strontium – at the site, a level 6,500 times higher than readings taken on Wednesday, NHK World reported.
The storage tank leaked over 300 tons of contaminated water in August, some of which is believed to have found its way into the sea through a ditch.
The well in question is about 10 meters from the tank and was dug to gauge leakage.
TEPCO said the findings show that radioactive substances like strontium have reached the groundwater. High levels of tritium, which transfers much easier in water than strontium, had already been detected.
Officials at TEPCO said they will remove any contaminated soil around the storage tank in an effort to monitor radioactivity levels of the water around the well.
The news comes after it has been reported a powerful typhoon which swept through Japan led to highly radioactive water near the crippled nuclear power plant being released into a nearby drainage ditch, increasing the risk of it flowing into the sea.
On Wednesday TEPCO said it had detected high levels of radiation in a ditch leading to the Pacific Ocean, and that it suspected heavy rains had lifted contaminated soil.

UPDATE: Pregnant missing teen found
POSTED: Friday, April 19, 2013 - 3:31pm
UPDATED: Friday, April 19, 2013 - 3:32pm
EL PASO — El Paso Police said they located 16-year-old Vivian Justine Cohn at a downtown shelter Friday. A citizen called police after seeing coverage of the missing girl to report that she had been staying at the shelter. Officers responded to the shelter and located Cohn who appeared to be in good health. Cohn has been reunited with her family.
The El Paso Police Department extended their gratitude towards the public for their assistance in helping locate Cohn.
Police earlier were asking for the public's assistance in locating Cohn, 16, who had not been home since March 15.
Officers said they arrived at her home after a family member reported she had left the home voluntarily. Relatives were worried that she was not receiving adequate medical care for her five-month pregnancy.

now that some people mentioned it, it has passed a long time since a beatifull female without a strange headgear come out. nothing against liss.
Hmm i have a speculation this character may be quite like a certain comic book character... My evidence that i think they may be similar to my favorite comic book non-villain non-hero DEAD-POOL.
Junior Member
Hi! Thanks for taking so much time and answering questions * * 1. 116 seems to be a lot about one-upping people/events. Is this based on her desire for vengeance or purely ego? 2. Do her tattoos have anything to do with her gameplay/abilities? If so, awesome. 3. If 116 found herself at a crossroads and had to make a decision, how would she make it?
Avalon Bright
Okay mister Ransom. Answer me this please and this is harmless enough... When are we getting the big teaser for #116?

A practical guide for nutritional and traditional health care. HERBS BASICS AILMENTS THERAPIES DETOXIFICATION MEDICAMENTS FLOWERS FACTS HOME |
MeaslesMany children are often affected by a severe and very contagious viral infection during childhood called measles. This viral infection can bring about many symptomatic signs of the viral infection including fever, the presence of malaise, the presence of a cough, a runny nose in the child, and other conditions like conjunctivitis which may come on as a secondary infection in the child. The typical symptom of measles is the appearance of a rash on the fourth day after initial infection, though the symptoms themselves tend to worsen gradually over a period of time. The itchy rash is a raised, splotchy, reddish-brown or purplish-red colored area of skin, which form all over the body of the infected child. The rashes appear on the skin of the child and persist for about five to seven days in total, beginning on the face and the neck and slowly spreading down to the trunk region, eventually reaching the extremities and the feet. A symptom is the appearance of red spots with a bluish-white center called Koplik's spots on the inside of the mouth, twelve hours before the development of the first rash on the body; these Koplik's spots signal the eventual arrival of the rash. What usually occurs after an initial infection of measles is that the measles virus incubates for nine to fourteen days before symptoms begin to appear in the skin. Once the disease is firmly established in the child's body, then the child is considered contagious for at least seven days following the physical symptoms. Ten days is the usual time it takes for the disease to run its course within the child's body. The patient will feel a lot better once the temperature of the body lowers and the symptomatic rashes begin fade to a brownish color that slowly disappear and the affected area of the skin sloughs off on its own. The contagious period has been crossed by the affected child once this event occurs. Because of its potential to cause some very complicated illnesses especially following the infection itself, the disease is considered a very serious condition in children; this consideration of severity is not dependant on the symptoms but on their likely ability to bring on other severe condition in the child. A very common complication which can be brought about by measles in a child is the appearance of ear infections. Many other serious and potentially lethal complications are also possible following an infection of measles; an example is pneumonia and encephalitis which can result because of an inflammation in the lining of the brain. You must turn to a doctor immediately if certain signs become apparent in a child affected with measles, examples are - the body temperature of the child suddenly skyrockets, the child has a sudden seizure, or the presence of any noticeable changes in the level of consciousness or mental functioning. Such symptoms are a sign of incipient encephalitis, a potentially lethal condition. Supplements and herbsSee age-appropriate dosages of herbal remedies Restless children can be calmed using a herbal preparation of chamomile tea, give a single dose of the tea two times every day. Infection can also be eliminated using a combination formula of the Echinacea and goldenseal herbs, these herbs support the functioning of the immune system, they are also helpful in soothing the skin and the inflamed mucous membranes which cause discomfort. Another powerful attribute of the Echinacea is its powerful antiviral property. Until the fever has completely abated, children can be given a single dose, every two hours as treatment. After which a continuation supplementation can be done with a single dose of the herb, taken thrice daily, for a treatment period lasting one week in total. Some of the beneficial effects of an herbal tea are its ability to reduce fever, its property of brining down a child's temperature, its power to decrease chills and its ability to induce perspiration in the body. To prepare such a fever reducing herbal tea, use a combination of equal parts of one or all of the following herbs, the leaves of the lemon balm herb, the flowers of the chamomile herb, the leaves of the peppermint herb, the root of the licorice and the elder flower can all be used in the herbal tea. To improve the flavor and the taste for older child, add a little honey; this also sweetens the mixture. Dosage of this herbal tea for children can be a single dose of the tea, taken four times every day, for a total treatment period of two or three days. Instead of the tea being used directly on the baby, a nursing mother can drink one adult dose, four times a day as indirect treatment. The baby will gain all the beneficial effects of the herbal mixture from drinking breast milk. Ideally, this tea should be as hot as possible when ingested. HomeopathyThe following homeopathic remedies can be used at dosage strengths of 6, 12 or 30 potency (x or c) once every 2 or 3 hours, this dosage can then be brought down slowly as the condition improves to dosage thrice a day, as recovery continues a single dose per day will be sufficient to bring complete healing.

Nerdist Podcast: Billy Eichner
By Katie Levine on May 25, 2012
Billy Eichner talks about growing up from a strange, fat, Jewish kid in New York to having his own show, Funny or Die's Billy on the Streets! There's also talk about destination weddings, Jonah brags about reading and Billy tells some hilarious stories from his show!
Follow @billyeichner on Twitter!
The music in the background during the intro while Chris is talking reminds me of background music in Totoro. Now I have to have a Miyazakifest in my house
So of course, I had to Google Mo'Nique and found this: "Why wasn't Mo'Nique at the [2011] Oscars?" http://content.usatoday.com/communities/entertainment/post/2011/02/why-wasnt-monique-at-the-oscars-/1#.T8AIjlKwXio AND that her show may not be on the air anymore. So…I found crap all that's recent.
Joe Pesci has retired to play country music
Chris, who was laughing at you in the intro!?
Billy fucking Eichner. Discovered him through How Was Your Week? and have been a fan ever since. Billy on the Street is one of the funniest things ever produced.
It's nice to hear this and his excitement at going to the Superbowl, knowing that his halftime show coverage was hilarious.
Ya know, it's totally illegal to even try to sell your Oscar unless you sign a waiver that says the Academy has the right to buy it back first — for $1.
As for melting it down, Oscars are not pure gold but gold-plated brittanium: 93% tin, 5% antimony, and 2% copper. Probably not worth too much on the open market…
@Roger … Oh man, 5% antimony. I can relate. I too missed most of antimony class — all those embarrassing diagrams!
Great ep, guys!
Those of us who were doing data entry while listening to this episode, thank you yet again for making our lab sound like it is full of crazy people.
Just listened to this eps…
Now where's my Chris and Matt ringtones! Come on, don't fail me now Internets!
[…] Billy Eichner has charmed, or screamed and maniacally run, rather, his way into America's heart with his man-on-the-street/game show hybrid Billy On The Street. That's why the third season of Billy On The Street will premiere tonight at 11/10c on Fuse. Of course, there will be plenty of sticking a microphone in the faces of random people walking around New York and asking them questions the correct answers for which are Billy's opinion, but Eichner manages to make the show, somehow, even faster paced than that.

Value of: Enterprise Partnerships |
Value of: Commercialisation |
Research partnerships ensure our research is relevant to industry and government demands. Our aim is to encourage more focused research activity by moving from a research-push towards a market-pull position. This will result in increased efficiency and repeat business. As a result Macquarie has set targets aimed at diversifying our funding and strengthening our connections with private industry.
Commercialisation is an efficient means of transferring the results of our research from the University sector to the business or government sectors. At a specific point in the research process the commercial potential of the research is established and a decision has to be made as to whether intellectual property (IP) protection is required. The successful commercialisation of a product or service enhances both the University and the inventors reputations within the community and amongst their peers and if it becomes profitable, both parties benefit financially. A commercial invention can be defined as any product or service that can be protected by law and is potentially profitable for those who develop it sufficiently to sell. |
