Dr. Jessica McCannon reports:
My husband and I are one of a rapidly growing number of dual-language families in the U.S., if the Census Bureau is any indication.
Spanish, in particular, is the second most-common language spoken in households in the U.S.
I don't know how other couples manage two languages, but there are times when either Spanish or English is better suited for a particular activity — arguing, for example.
I can feel somehow liberated to communicate (and am able to match my husband's Mediterranean volume and tone in a way that English doesn't permit).
But, even though we are trying very hard to make our home environment Spanish-only, there are moments with my sons and my husband when I must speak my mother tongue, a phrase that means so much to me now.
For example, when I talk about death — in general or my own — it's just easier for me to do in English. I imagine that's a common phenomenon because it's all in the details… the nuances of each word.
I know from direct observation and experience that even with the best-intentioned health care providers and interpreters, navigating the U.S. health care system when English is not your first language is deeply challenging.
It's hard enough to talk about illnesses and treatments. That difficulty multiplies when thinking and communicating about more deeply personal topics. Spanish — and hundreds of other languages in the U.S. — are spoken by individuals who may not be familiar with the amount of personal input welcomed (and sometimes demanded) by the American health care system, particularly when it comes to end-of-life care.
We have recently posted a Spanish translation of The Conversation Starter Kit and hope that more languages are to come. It's only the tip of the iceberg, but we hope it's a start.
Dr. Jessica McCannon is board-certified in internal medicine, in her final year of Harvard's Clinical and Research Fellowship in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine. After completing her internal medicine residency training at Massachusetts General Hospital, she began providing care to adults at the Mass General Hospital Down Syndrome Program. She received her BA from Cornell University. She has been a core member of The Conversation Project since the organization was founded.

Davies expects tough Shrews test
The midfielder, who was an inspirational figure as Shrews reached the play-off final last season, rejected a new deal at the Prostar Stadium in order to sign for County, who have since seen their expectations rocket as a result of recent investment. And as he prepares to face his former employers at Meadow Lane this weekend, Davies told the Magpies' official website what he is expecting from Paul Simpson's men. "They will be a good side - they will be organised, disciplined, good at set-pieces," he said. "It will be a tough game for us but at home, with a new manager and good crowd behind us, if we play the way we can then we can beat anyone. "All of their players are ones to look out for. But it's more about us than them on Saturday, they'll come here and be aggressive and pass the ball so we've got to prepare for that and hopefully our quality will shine through." Asked what kind of reception he expects to receive from the travelling support, Davies replied: "I don't know really. I enjoyed my time there, I had a good three years so if they want to come and boo me and give me a bit of stick then that's up to them."

FIX THE YEAR and I'm sold.
I don't quite like these designs, but having HoC shirts is an excellent idea. Keep 'em coming!
@EdBatters, it seems the design is not meant to be a campaign shirt but shows the fact that he is already 46th president of the good old USofA. Although I do agree it would be better if it was looking forward to the 2016 election instead
Please fix the date and I will buy in a heart beat!
The Campaign one should say 2016, as he is already president in 2015.
I think all pass, cool shirts though

Hatchets, Ratchets & Pivots: Book Talk by Ruth DeFries
As Professor Ruth DeFries aptly stated in her opening remarks at yesterday's book launch for "The Big Ratchet," if you look at satellite pictures of the earth, you see the imprint of the human species everywhere. Humans have come to dominate the planet. But how did this come to be? This question, among others, is what DeFries hopes to answer in her new book, "The Big Ratchet: How Humanity Thrives in the Face of Natural Crisis." How did humans acquire the capability to spread out over the entire earth and control other species?
Tanzania Launches Plan to Fight Climate Impacts on Agriculture
Vital Signs is a key part of Tanzania's new Agriculture Climate Resilience Plan, which presents a strategy for sustainable agricultural development in the face of shifting rainfall patterns and other effects of a changing climate.
Larry Gibson and the Lobster Boat
There are many brave people who recognize the climate crisis and are beginning to stand up and take personal risks to try to stop expansion of the fossil fuel industry, across the United States, in Canada, and in other nations. Their courage is remarkable and I hope it has an awakening effect.
Internship Opportunities with the Earth Institute Director's Office
The Office of the Director of the Earth Institute is offering two internship opportunities: the Administration, Communications, and Research, Director's Office (DO) internship; and the Communications, Research, Writing and Event-Planning Internship. Both will work with the Office of the Director.
Reduce, Reuse and Re-(bi)cycle
Audra Stark plans to pedal 300 miles from New York City to Washington, D.C., from Sept. 20-24 to raise money for The Earth Institute and other organizations working on the issues of climate, environment and transportation. "Too often I've found myself and others complaining about and debating an issue without taking action in our daily lives," she said. "Joining Climate Ride is one more way I can act on my lifelong concern about climate change, and take a further step on my personal road to a low carbon footprint."
Practicum Introduces Students to Earth Institute Research

The Energy to Fight Injustice
The enormity of these anti-nuclear policy decisions is difficult to exaggerate. Energy consumption is an inescapable requirement of development, and renewable energy sources alone cannot satisfy the energy demands of China and other developing nations. They now have no choice but to burn massive amounts of coal if they wish to raise their living standards.

I am using Nokia UI API to play sound. More specifically I use the init method of the Sound class:
init(byte[] data, int type);
and then
and on the phone, the music starts playing, but it's like some tones doesn't play. Especially if tones are "too close" to each other, it seems as if the sound chip just skips some of them to make room...
does anyone know of this problem?
The phones I am trying this on is a Nokia 3510i and a Nokia 6100.
I am thinking if this could be resolved by writing a separate class that calls init(int freq, long duration) and does the timing itself.
But I don't want to do so if the problem is in the sound chip and this can't be solved...

Edited 8.22.08: While I really like this makeup and the Intensive, I have recently re-tried the Semi-Matte and O-Glo and I'm really liking them too. I think each has its use. Everyday formuals are the matte or the semi-matte; the intensive is for extremely hot or oily conditions or more coverage, and O-Glo creates a more dewy slightly more sheer, look.
I am starting to suspect that Intensive, and Fyrinnae Superpower in Matte, are a little too drying for everday use, that my skin may do better over time with Semi-Matte, Matte or O-Glo, but that's not confirmed yet. I think my skin may overcompensate with oil using the Intensive and the similar Fyrinnae superpower, especially, although those really will probably be for more coverage going forward. I will update this as needed.
5 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I tried this after failing with EM's intensive formula and I must say, I LOVE THIS! The coverage is pretty similar to what you'd get with EM's intensive formula, except it doesn't magnify pores nor make your face/nose get so oily. It lasted an entire day on my face and didn't oxidise that badly compared to their intensive formula foundations. One thing though, I'm undecided about whether its the cause of the these two new zits on my forehead. Its also that time of the month for me so for all I know those zits might just be hormonal. Will update in time to come, but for now, I'm liking this one. If you didn't like EM's intensive formula don't give up yet and give their other formulas a try. Might work for you like it did for me (so far)!
EDIT: Since the review up there, my skin is clearing up. I'm left with a two little bumps on chin and a bunch of icky scars because I picked on my pimples (*hangs head in shame*) I'm still using EM foundation on days when I go out. Buttered Tan is wonderful on my NC37-40 skin. So maybe those zits were hormonal eh. ;) I love EM! My custom kit is on its way, yay yay!
I am overall very happy with this foundation. The coverage is great without being too heavy or too light... it covers imprerfections and looks natural. By the end of the day I sometimes notice a little dryness on the dry areas of my face, and I do have to blot my oily forehead by mid-day, but that's typical for me with any foundation. I love that this doesn't clog my pores or look harsh. The Medium Beige Neutral shade is a perfect match for me.
This is really good foundation. However, in order to realize its full potential you absolutely have to "set" it with Finishing Dust. I like the Matte the best. Original Glo is a close second.
I wish I could get behind this product like everyone else has. Ive now tried 2 sample packs of various foundations and colors and must say I have been disappointed. I do have oily skin in the t-zone and found that this foundation started to get cakey around my nose and chin within an hour. The coverage seemed to fade very quickly as well. I will not be a repeat customer of this product. Also the sample size containers are so small it's almost impossible to get the product out. On the plus side I do commend everyday minerals on offering sample sizes so we dont have to waste our money on a full size.
More reviews by prsleanansidhe
This is my favorite formula of EM foundation. I have oily/combination skin and live in a hot/humid environment and this works fantastically. With Youngblood, Jane Iredale, or BE, I always got extremely shiny towards midday, but with this, I barely get any breakthrough and it's only on my nose. I like the semi-matte as well, but prefer it only in the winter, as I look a bit too shiny during the summer months. I'm still working with the eye area application, as I have dark circles under my eyes and this gives me spotty coverage there. They have a fantastic selection of colors and their beige category contains the only minerals I have found that aren't too yellow, orange, or pink for my skintone. Overall, the best MMU I have tried. At this price, I'll be stocking up.
More reviews by brightpinkflowers
I bought this after reading all the fantastic reviews and also because it is so cheap! But I am very disappointed to find out that the makeup is shimmery! This is not suitable for oily skin in a tropical country. Finishing dust is a better choice for oily skin relative to this product, because it is totally matte. But finishing dust also do not control shine well, sigh.
Update: Try Ettusais 2-way foundation. That is gentle on skin and controls oil so so much better!
This does a very good job evening out my skintone without looking mask-like, and has very good coverage w/out using a lot. I am NC30/Chanel Shell/GA 5 (Asian, yellow-neutral) and use Medium Beige. I like using this with the Everday Minerals Flat Foundation Brush (a steal at $10) and the Sephora #25 Bronzer Brush - so the investment for a good brush is imperative. I get great coverage with less product by first spritzing my face with MAC Fix+ or a MAC Charged Waters, then buff the powder into my skin. This seals the makeup (no need for loose powder afterwards) and prevents that powdery look inherent to powder foundations. I use a retinoid at night and can get flaky but using EM Matte Foundation while wet elminates flakes. This product has the right combination of performance, price, and ease of use which earns it a 4.

This and the semi-matte formula are my HG foundations! The semi-matte is great for me on most days and the matte is perfect for my oilier days. This make-up feels like I'm barely wearing any (in fact sometimes I actually forget I'm wearing it), seems to actually help clear my skin up, offers perfect, buildable coverage, and is one of few make-up brands to carry a shade light enough for me. MAC makes a NW15 concealer that's light enough for me, but even their regular NW15 foundations are too dark, if that tells you anything. I wear their old balancing powder that I don't think they make anymore on my T-zone, then foundation, then finishing powder and my make-up lasts all day and my oil doesn't break through making me a shiny nightmare a few hours after application (or at all) like it does with almost every other foundation I've ever worn.

5 reasons to throw a veterinary hospital open house
My practice had only been open a couple of months when I hosted my first open house in 1993. Every year for the next 20 years, I held an open house that became an important fixture on our community calendar. Although the events, dates and staff would change, the fun, educational opportunities and client bonding remained steadfast. While I discovered innumerable motives to continue for two decades, here are my top five reasons you should hold an open house this year. 1 The educational opportunity. For several years, Seaside Animal Care in Calabash, N.C., held two separate events—an open house and a pet health fair—until the fair grew so large that we merged the two events. Each open house now has a pet health theme, and we create two or three education stations loaded with brochures, giveaways and free health screenings. 2 It paves the way for new clients. Chances are, there are plenty of outstanding pet owners who'd love an excuse to see whether you're really as good as everyone says you are—and not pay an exam fee to get that peek. I'm always surprised at the number of unfamiliar faces who become clients after an open house. 3 A reason to clean. I strongly believe in having a regular reason to spruce up your clinic. Too often we get lazy and things get dirty. Hosting an open house forces you to critically evaluate how your clinic looks and smells.4 An excuse to show off. In addition to cleaning and organizing, I like to have something cool to show off at our open house. Whether it's a new laser or simply a new vaccine or service, use your open house to showcase your progress and investments in new stuff. 5 It's an icebreaker. Many clients get locked into seeing only one of your five veterinarians. Use this open house to show off your entire staff to every client. After meeting your other doctors, you may find clients are more flexible when scheduling. For me, the open house is about giving back to my community. Free T-shirts, food, drinks and goodies are my way of saying "thank you." I feel privileged to be able to share good times with pet lovers in my community. Get creative and have fun with what I still consider to be our practice's best word-of-mouth advertising generator.

Income inequality is surging, and there are few countries where it is rising faster than the United States. The distance between rich and poor is greater in America than nearly all other developed countries, making the US a leader in a trend that economists warn has dire consequences. GlobalPost sets out on a reporting journey to get at the 'ground truth' of inequality through the lenses of education, race, immigration, health care, government, labor and natural resources. The hope is to hold a mirror up to the US to see how it compares to countries around the world.
President Obama's focus on income inequality in America resonates with many in the land of his father.
"For we, the people, understand that our country cannot succeed when a shrinking few do very well and a growing many barely make it," Obama said.
For a population that tends to view their own government as if from across a great distance — "they don't know where I am," "we're too far away" and "the government doesn't know me," were common explanations from Kibera's residents for the absence of any tangible state presence in their lives — this American president is viewed with a surprising immediacy by many here.
"Obama is our neighbor, he understands what we are going through," said Rosaline Amondi, known as "Mama Fish," who owns a modest restaurant on one of Kibera's main avenues.
Less than a month before Kenyans head to the polls, Obama drew on his connection here in a video posted last week urging voters to conduct peaceful, fair elections on March 4.
The video calls for Kenyans to "come together" to avoid the bloodshed that marred its last election. Much of that chaos was orchestrated by leading politicians, who capitalized on the tribalism that has long plagued the country.
The question of ethnicity, though, is closely tied to economics here. Kenya has more than 40 tribes, but the largest group, the Kikuyus, have dominated business and politics since the country won independence from Britain in 1963. This sense of favoritism mixed with gross poverty makes a volatile cocktail that Kenya is scrambling to put a lid on before votes are cast and counted.
In Nairobi especially, argued Catherine Wambua-Soi, a producer for Al Jazeera, in a recent blog post, the battle lines of this election are being drawn between the rich and the poor.
"Arguably, for the first time in the history of multi-party politics here, Nairobi's county elections will be more along class lines rather than the traditional tribal blocs," she said, detailing politicians' efforts to connect with the capital's slum dwellers by wearing ripped clothing, handing out food and bragging about being "from the hood."
The Junction
The Muthaiga Golf Club is an exclusive, members-only club in a wealthy suburb of Nairobi. |
Encircling Kibera, and serving the city's elite, are the manicured lawns of the Royal Nairobi Golf Club, a handful of gated embassies, and a mile and a half down the road the upscale Junction Mall. Though named for a point of convergence, the traffic barriers and security checks make the Junction as impenetrable for Kibera's residents as a feudal castle.
In the tasting room at WWW Shop and Bar, Christopher Muthuko is spending his Saturday afternoon catching up with a friend. Nairobi's first wine bar, WWW Shop is one of many such swank establishments that have popped up in the past few years. They serve elaborate "bitings," and for the deep-pocketed romantics, "precious stone cocktails" which offer one's date the choice of a drink and a rock: tanzanite, pink topaz or diamond.
Muthuko, who owns a farm in western Kenya, leans back in his leather booth, polished glasses set casually atop a shaved head. He thinks Obama can help by bringing attention to the issue of income inequality, which until now has been seen here as "just something inevitable."
"The politicians need to see this as a platform for unifying the country, and the more attention Obama can bring to it, the more likely things will be brought to the table," he said.
Across the booth, Kojo Acquaisie, a political advisor for the United Nations, disagrees: "He has his issues to deal with in America, and our problems, they are for us to solve."
This edge of survival
Nairobi is the economic heart of Kenya, accounting for 45 percent of GDP. Yet two out of three of the city's residents live in slums and informal settlements, half of them in Kibera.
The line here between formal and informal work is not drawn neatly between planned neighborhoods and slums, but a strong correlation does exist. State investment in wealthier neighborhoods is much higher in Nairobi, even when poorer areas are much more densely populated. Access to capital is also key. Most banks won't lend to those with nothing to leverage against a loan, often not even a permanent address.
In the shade of a makeshift awning, Kyalo Mungudi is orchestrating a rhythmic flow of water delivery. The jingle of coins changing hands, then the thunk of water hitting hollow plastic sounds on endless repeat through this narrow pathway. A lean teenager in sandals made from recycled tires, Mungudi operates this water point for its owner, who moved out of Kibera long ago.
At a stakeholders' workshop last year Martin Mascinde, a fiscal analyst with the Parliamentary Budget Office, said that the Kenya Revenue Authority has lost more than 200 billion Kenyan shillings, or over $22 million, in three years due to the government's inability to tax the informal sector.
"If the underground economy remains untaxed, the government will continue losing billions of shillings… it will become increasingly difficult for the government to hit its revenue targets," he said.
For Mungudi too, the issue of taxation is central to progress.
"When the government collects taxes they can put more water points in Kibera," he said. "We should pay so the country can develop."
For now, the government delivers water to only a tiny portion of Kibera, leaving most reliant on hawked water from private taps, where they pay two to ten times what is paid by a Nairobi resident outside the slums.
"We are the ones helping ourselves, we're forgotten by the government," said Mary Okoth, who has come with three jerry cans to be filled. Scoffing at the idea of paying taxes to a government she never sees, she shrugs her shoulders: "For what?"
From her office on the top floor of the University of Nairobi, Dr. Mary Njeri Kinyanjui, a senior research fellow at the Institute for Development Studies, shares a similar skepticism.
"An industrialist will boast about his contributions to the national economy by paying tax, yet most of his workers can't afford the goods he produces," she said.
For Kinyanjui, though, the solution lies not solely on tax reform, but on wages: "We are a labor surplus economy so we keep our wages low, but meanwhile people are living just on this edge of survival. How can we grow like that?"
Jua kali: Swahili for innovation
in the Cana Children's Center, three classes crowd together in a single room. Three years ago, before the Cana Center was built, none of these children attended school, and many spent days without a hot meal. |
The development world has long viewed the informal economy as second-rate, or simply backwards, but here in Kenya many are beginning to view places like Kibera for what they are: consummate machines of production and creativity.
"Western industrialization has failed to respect informality," said Kinyanjui, who believes that the solution to inequality here rests not on imposing formalization, but rather in supporting the informal sector as an indigenous advantage.
In Swahili, this informal spirit is known as jua kali, which means "hot sun," and was originally applied to artisans who labored all day in the open air.
Folding his hands together, Acquaisie argues that the jua kali needs to be better supported by the state.
"These traditional mechanisms help pull society together," he said. "But these ideas need to be institutionalized. We need to mainstream ideas that already exist in our society, and we need government policy and legislation to back them."
Technology has also been used as a bridge between the formal and informal economies. Following the explosion of access to mobile phones, Kenya's Safaricom developed M-Pesa, an innovative system that allows those without a bank account to transfer funds with the ease of a text message.
On both large and small scales, such creativity is often born of necessity.
Beams of light flood into the Cana Children's Center through holes in the corrugated metal roof. Three classes crowd together in a single room, their lessons coming from community members who are little more than volunteers. Yet three years ago, before the Cana Center was built, none of these children attended school, and many spent days without a hot meal.
"There's just too much need, and too little being offered by the state," said Martha Ayuma, the founder and principle of Cana Children's Center.
"Bit by bit, though, we are building something new."

I Wish Holiday World Was Open For The Holidays!Although, I'm thankful for Holiday World from May through August, I sure wish they had a world class party during the Holiday season too! From Rod Whitenack
After seeing a photo of that Thanksgiving dinner from the Plymouth Cafe at Holiday World, I found myself wishing Holiday World would open limited hours for the Holidays. I'd love to visit Thanksgiving Land around Thanksgiving, ride the Voyage in the cold and take a trip through Gobbler Get-A-Way. I think Holiday World could also put on a limited (without all the rides open obviously) Christmas party with a great light show every December. I bet people would drive for hours to visit the official Santa Claus Land around Christmas just to look at lights, drink hot chocolate and meet Santa Claus. Of course, they could also take advantage of Halloween Land to host a family friendly Halloween event. I'm sure the Koch family needs a little break to plan the next Summer's fun, but I think they could score big with families during the Holidays.Posted November 28, 2010 at 4:19 PM Comments in chronological order. Most recent at the bottom. Scroll down to respond. From Anthony Murphy
I am thinking that it should stay open until the end of November (limited hours of course, perhaps weekends).Posted November 28, 2010 at 4:20 PM Assuming that they have the same weather as here in Chicago, it does not get really cold until the end of November. I am actually suprised they are not open for Halloween! From Mike Gallagher
Sounds like a great idea for a great park. Here's another suggestion for the Koch family:Posted November 28, 2010 at 4:57 PM Move the park about a thousand miles east. :) From Anthony Murphy
No, Move it to Chicago! LOL!Posted November 29, 2010 at 9:11 AM From Rod Whitenack
I'm surprised Pat Koch hasn't emailed me yet to discuss my ideas! Hee hee. BTW, Holiday World is fine right where it is. Maybe you guys can convince them to franchise another park?Posted November 30, 2010 at 2:28 PM This discussion has been archived, and is not accepting additional responses.

This is All About YouThis Is All About You:Most people giving you advice, might take a quote from a bookMost people giving you advice, have never had a real lookSo from someone who's been watching, let me lay my heart bareI want to show you all the special things, about the girl for whom I careShe always does her very best, no matter how tough the taskEven when she's struggling, she puts on a brave maskShe's always trying to learn new things, just for a chance to make you proudShe can be a little bit quiet, but I think that's better than being loudShe's not the very best in sports, I know she can be kind of a klutzBut she smiles and goes on anyway, now that takes a lot of guts...She gets embarassed pretty easily and gets far too nervous to talkBut I know she'd like it if we held hands, whenever we went for a walkShe doesn't need a lot of pretty things, she just wants someone who caresI bet she'd like to have someone, whom she knew would always be thereI remember when she tried to cook
I Comfort MyselfWith a warm drink, whispering secrets to my own reflection.The struggles that plague me, though none may know,Are only for the ears of my quiet mirror, who smilesSoftly, warmly and with care. He tells me, I'm fineI've done well for now and soon I may finally rest.Though the silence continues to press upon me,Weighing upon my soul like an iron crate.Still I find comfort in whispering secrets,If only to my own reflection - holding a warm drink...-Chen Yuan Wen, 17th October 2012
I'd Be Pretty If I'd Just...I'd be pretty if I'd just smileIf I'd cut my hair a certain wayAnd cover myself up in that chemical crap you call make-upBut did you ever think that just maybe...I don't wanna be prettyThat I just wanna be meWho cares if no one ever calls me beautifulWho cares if I'm never asked to danceHell I don't even know how to dance anywayI don't care how the world sees meI only care how I see meAnd I think there's nothing wrong with the girl in the mirrorSure she doesn't smile much but that's cause she's going through hellHer face may look plain without any make-upBut that's just the way I like itAn old pair of jeansThe first t-shirt could findMy hair in a braidI'm ready to goTo where no one cares just what I look likeLeast of all meIt's a barn full of horsesThat's where I choose to spend my daysWhere no one cares about what I wearWhere I never have to hear "I'd be pretty if I'd just..."
She always fell for boys who needed saving.She always fell for boys who needed saving.Giving them kisses in the darkto numb their headache fromdrinking too much and yetnot enough to kill lust.She was always adored by boys, who,if given the chance, would rebuildthe world for her.But she wanted to be the heroineand refused to seeshe needed saving, too.
Sometimes I Lose ThingsSometimes I lose things.Sometimes it's little things.Things like my ipod or my keys.Bobby pins and chapsticks often evanesce without warning or cause.Sometimes I lose bigger things.Things like my favorite sweater or my school bag.Things like the reason I came into a room,Or the memories of what I had for breakfast that morning.Sometimes I lose my train of thought, or the point I was trying to make or an idea.Sometimes I lose arguments.Sometimes I lose friends.I like to think all the things I lose go to the same place.A plain white place full of hair ties and dollar store bracelets,And I like to think they all wait there, patiently.Wait there to be found.One day I lost my passion.It floated away like a helium balloon drifting toward the sun.But I couldn't let it go.I chased it into the sky,Past the moon and the stars and the milky-way,I followed it into the white place,I faced a sea of bobby pins and hair ties and chap-sticks.I faced all those lost arguments and id
They Watch UsThey Watch Us:Perched high upon the mountains;With wings as black as night.They watch us in the hour,Before darkness turns to light.I've seen them in my visions;In dreams they come and go,But the things they seem to tell meI guess nobody should know...I've seen children that are buried,Beneath a frozen lake.A maiden sits there weeping;Her heart is soon to break.The crows flutter downward,A noose amongst their hands.They take the maiden away,To a dark and distant land.And even if I follow -Even if I try...I'll simply end up buried,Where the frozen children lie.-Chen Yuan Wen, 10th November 2012

Football: Pardew fined $212,000 by Newcastle over headbutt
Published on Mar 2, 2014 8:43 AM
NEWCASTLE, United Kingdom (AFP) - Newcastle fined manager Alan Pardew £100,000 (US$212,000) and gave him a formal warning on Saturday for headbutting an opposition player in the Premier League game at Hull.
The 52-year-old clashed with Hull's David Meyler during his side's 4-1 win and later apologised for the sensational incident.
"Alan has accepted a formal warning from the club in relation to his behaviour today and also a club fine of £100,000," said a club statement.
Despite apologising, Pardew will still face a Football Association investigation.

This shade was a perfect fit for the kitchen window over the sink. It looks great and keeps the bright morning sun from blasting into the kitchen. It produces a nice glow of light that is pleasant. It is very easy to raise/lower.
Very easy to install and I am extremely happy with the blinds. They brighten the room up! The pure white look brings a 'clean' light into the room. Would highly recommend these!
These blinds are as advertised. They shipped and arrived SUPER fast, too! But they came with no instructions. I had to google for how to use the little clips to install them. Other than that, they are fine. They look nice and went up easy after I figured out how to do it. I can't speak for longevity since I just got them up, but they are what they say they are.
We have ordered several and in different sizes. Only one package arrived without the hardware. Not easy because they were all gone but finally Overstock provided the hardware. Great service

As a business owner, a great question to ask yourself is; "Would people miss my business if I stopped trading?"
Without doubt, one of the best investments you can make in your business, is to constantly look for ways to be irreplaceable.
Think of it like this:
- If people want carrot flavour ice cream and you're the only person who makes it, carrot ice cream lovers would miss you like crazy if you stopped trading.
- However, if people want a good quality training provider or consultant and that's what you offer, it's relatively simple for them to find another good quality provider.
Not easy, but required
As a small business owner, there is enormous value in finding your equivalent of carrot flavour ice cream. By being hard to replace you give your existing clients no reason to look for another provider. Additionally, it is a great deal easier to successfully market a service, which offers unique value. Just as importantly, because your service will no longer be just like all your competitors, you no longer need to compete with them on price.
No, it's not easy to develop a product or service that is irreplaceable. That's why your competitors are not doing it and why the opportunity exists for you.
However, if you want to retain more of your clients, generate more word of mouth recommendations, do work that matters and earn the fees you deserve, it is required.

Everyone wants to be my friend

I'm pretty psyched about this, even though I've had a love/hate relationship with Fitbit ever since I got the Force rash (while pregnant, too!). (I now wear a Fitbit Flex but only when I'm going on a walk or run.) The little rubber bracelet is functional, but it sure is ugly — so like I said, I'm really excited about this collaboration. The hinged metal bracelet (pictured) is $195; there are some more affordable silicone bracelets with fun Tory Burch patterns and colors on them (for $38).

Healdsburg's West Side Elementary School is closed for the week after a fire in the school over the weekend.
Authorities say three classrooms and the multipurpose room at the school were destroyed when the fire roared through the school a little after 6:00 Sunday morning.
Damage to the 50-year-old building is estimated to be around $500,000.
Fire investigators don't think the fire was started deliberately, but believe it might have started from an electrical malfunction in the administrative offices.
It's not clear yet if the 150 students who attend the school will have to make up the canceled week at the end of the school year.
The school board is expected to meet with the school's teachers today.

5 Stocks Setting Up to Break Out
Brigham Exploration
One final breakout play that comes out of the energy space is Brigham Exploration (BEXP), an independent exploration, development and production company that utilizes advanced exploration, drilling and completion technologies to systematically explore for, develop and produce domestic onshore crude oil and natural gas reserves. This name is off to a solid start so far this year with shares up over 17%.
Exploration and production stocks like Brigham Exploration are off the races today after BHP Billiton offered $38.75 a share for Petrohawk Energy, a 65% premium to its closing price from the previous day's trading session. Brigham Exploration, along with names such as Oasis Petroleum (OAS), Range Resources (RRC) and Kodiak Oil & Gas (KOG), have been mentioned by analysts as possible takeover targets off the heels of the BHP deal.
If you take a look at the chart for Brigham Exploration, you'll see that this stock has just started to break out above some past overhead resistance at around $31.87 to $31.89 a share. This past resistance area is very significant, because the stock has failed twice at this level during the past three months. A move above $32 could set this stock up for a run back towards $34 to $35 a share rather quickly.
Traders should keep in mind that shares of BEXP were acting bullish even before the BHP deal hit the wires. You can this on the chart when you notice how BEXP has been making higher lows for the past couple of weeks, which is a bullish technical sign. A pattern of higher lows means that large traders were eager to buy any dip on the stock. One could be a buyer of this stock as it clears $32 and simply use a mental stop like 15 cents below that price. I would add to any long positions once BEXP clears $34 to $34.95 a share on strong volume. Look for volume that's well above or close to the three-month average action of 3.5 million shares. A move above $34.95 should set up BEXP for a run back towards its 52-week high of $37.87 a share.
