Town, school budgets get hearings
Sunday, January 20, 2013
The Town and School Budgets have had public hearings this past week and the budget and warrant articles are on the websites.
The School Board wanted as small an increase as possible while funding areas that will impact education for years.
A default budget does not respond to the needs of the district. Even if the actual difference between default and new budgets amount is not much, the money will not be as usable due to line item funding. The school board feels that the proposed budget is not a big increase for what it is trying to accomplish.It will provide full time kindergarten — essentially without any additional cost and keep classroom sizes throughout the district the same.
Highlights will include a visit to the largest blackgum (tupelo) tree in Strafford County, and a look at the large Creek Pond marsh, which comprises much of the headwaters of the Oyster River.
It will be about a two-mile excursion. Bring water, and leave pets at home.


text: On the "easy to use" argument I couldn't agree more. Before software center I could never understood why people said that Ubuntu was "easy to use" when AFAICT Fedora was exactly the same but in a blue hue. Nowadays Software Center does make it easier to discover and install applications, and Unity is different from what you get in other distros, but other than that there's not much difference. I use Ubuntu now, after a few years with Fedora and openSUSE, mainly because of Unity (yes, that's right: Unity) and software center.

Bugged on campus:Hundreds of crickets get loose inside UNH dorm
Wednesday, February 13, 2013
DURHAM — There are many things students can expect to see in their room when they return from class or a meal. Three hundred crickets probably isn't one of them.
The crickets presumably pushed through a poorly taped air vent while the student was away from his room.
The student said that he has been hearing about "crickets in the upper quad" fairly often since the whole event happened. While no one has directly confronted him about it, he has heard that people were initially upset about the whole fiasco.
"I had no intention of letting this happen, and I ended up breaking a rule for a less than worthwhile reason," the student said. "But no, I really didn't do this on purpose."

Drunken Chicken
Nook & Pantry is a food blog I follow and admire since the early days. Over the past few years, I have watched the blog blossoms with mouthwatering recipes and seriously exceptional food photography. Authored by Amy, Nook & Pantry is a journal of Amy's cooking. I love the recipes on Nook & Pantry—simple, delicious, and down-to-earth everyday dish. Please welcome Amy as she shares her family's drunken chicken recipe, a Shanghainese dish that I truly enjoy.
When Bee asked me to write a guest post for Rasa Malaysia, I immediately said yes. Rasa Malaysia is one of my favorite food blogs and writing a guest post is a tremendous honor. Agreeing was a no-brainer—choosing a recipe, on the other hand, was the hard part. I was torn between a recipe that showcases the wonderful seafood we have here in the Pacific Northwest or something that pays tribute to my Chinese heritage. While we both love seafood, but in the end, because of Bee's focus on Asian cuisine, I settled on the latter. My family is from Shanghai and drunken chicken is a well-known specialty of the region. Summer is coming to an end but for areas of the country still experiencing lingering heat, this cool and refreshing recipe could be just what you're looking for.
When I visited my relatives in Shanghai many years back, I remember my uncle made the best drunken chicken. He pulled out an unassuming looking Tupperware from the fridge, but inside sat bite-sized pieces of chicken with a shiny, bouncy skin, surrounded by wine spiked aspic.
Drunken chicken is traditionally made with a whole chicken but no matter how delicately I cook the chicken, the breast meat is never as tasty as the dark meat. The first time I made this, I used a whole chicken, but the second time I used just the leg quarters and was much happier with the results. There are two techniques you can use to cook the chicken. The more traditional way is to poach a whole chicken gently in a pot of barely simmering water. The plus side is that huge pot of water transforms into the most delicious chicken broth that's great for soups. Or you can steam the chicken. Dark meat is way more forgiving of the higher heat in the steamer. No one likes dried out, cardboard chicken breast no matter how much booze you soak that sucker in. After steaming, the chicken legs release about a cup of gelatin packed chicken stock concentrate and after it's mixed with shao hsing rice wine, it solidifies into a delicate aspic.
The jello, gelatin, aspic, whatever you want to call it, is the best part! It's nothing like the strangely colored, rubbery concoction ubiquitous to American cafeterias. This chicken and wine flavored aspic hugs each piece of chicken and melts instantly in your mouth, serving as a built in self-basting system for the chicken. But if jello isn't for you and regardless of which method you choose to cook the chicken, drunken chicken is best served cold. You can serve it alone as an appetizer or with a bowl of noodles in hot chicken broth or fluffy white rice for a juxtaposition of temperatures.
There's one catch—the Chinese cleaver. After cooking, it's traditional to use the Chinese cleaver to chop the chicken into bite-size pieces that can be easily picked up with chopsticks. One decisive twack is designed to cut through skin, meat, and bone. Don't try to do the same with a chef's knife, it will never forgive you. A Chinese cleaver is heavy duty because the weight of the knife does most of the work. The trick is to aim well and make one strong decisive movement. Even a split second of hesitation will translates a botched cut job where the cleaver doesn't make it all the way through the bone, or bone shards. If you don't own a Chinese cleaver or don't want to deal with butchering chicken, that's okay! You can cook drumsticks, which are smaller, score larger pieces of meat down to the bone before marinating so the wine has a chance to penetrate.

Oooh I love this dish. I don't know why, it might not have an appealing aesthetic but there's something so delicious about the chicken and the gelatin around it.
what a treat?! Woooo I will like to give this a try!
This is bookmarked to try. The only thing is that I will have to make a small portion as no amount of convincing will win me Caribbean dining companions with this – people in these parts like to see their food coloured :)
This chicken looks AMAZING, I actually feel like I need to lean forward and lick my computer screen. Am bookmarking it for the next time I cook chicken rice. :)
Looks very moist and succulent. It's such a great way to cook chicken.
I remember reading about this dish in The Last Chinese Chef. It looks great!
I love drunken chicken the first time I tasted it. Looks really succulent & delicious. Great recipe & background information!
This is quite easy and simple, think i am cooking this next week. Thanks for sharing!
This is one of my favourite Shanghaiese starters. Well done and gorgeous photos :)
thanks alot, i've been finding this method of how to steam a chicken. thank you!

Made this recipe for my radio show Lucky Cat as I was doing a special programme on the 7 singing stars of Shanghai from the 1930s/40s. Fanastic recipe, loved it, thanks to you and Amy for sharing it. Took a pic for my blog:
I am a bit confused. You have Shaoxing rice wine in your recipe, but I don't see it is used in the cooking process!?
:) Tip to poached chicken (breast especially) is to let it sit in low heat around 65 degree Celsius. I find if I bring the stock to a boil again, the chicken tend to be tough.
For the best result, the chicken should be at room temperature before going in to the boiled water. And the most important thing of all is to be patient.
Can you have this dish hot with out reheating to avoid drying it out?
Is there another substitue for rice wine?
Can't believe I first made this some 30 years ago. I bought the ingredients from a fantastic – I really mean fantastic (you could spend an afternoon there, and not get bored) – Chinese wholesale shop in Birmingham, England. Even bought an expensevive-ish (£10?) chinese meat chopper to cut the chicken.
My variation? I substituted the rice wine with sherry. That's all, Must've made it at least 10 times for my guests, and it vanished before I could ask "anyone for more??"
You substituted the rice wine with sherry and you was at a Chinese wholesale shop? You should try it next time with the Shaoxing rice wine….. Unbelievable!!
Pingback:I WON! « From Our Family Kitchen
this is crazy delicious. i cooked this twice over the period of 2 weeks. and my husband is still crazy over it, and he's been raving about it so much, his friends want to try it too. i always have to cook extra for him to get his 2nd helping.
thank u so much for posting this. really helps singaporeans living overseas get over their cravings for sg hawker food. hehe.
i posted this recipe on my blog, and added a link to u..
thanks once again.
you have shaoxing wine and sugar in your recipe but i didn't see you use it.
when should i use it if i choose steam method?
Whenever I steam or boil whole chicken, the skin always tears when I try to handle the whole chicken. Any tips on keeping the skin flawless?
The trick is to simmer the chicken after the second boil. Keep the flame low so the bubbles rise up to the surfact slowly, almost one at a time. Secondly, be patient. Third, shock the chicken in ice water after it is cooked.
This looks like something I would love to eat! Thanks for sharing! :)
oh woww.. my MIL made this for me last week and can't wait to try this on my own!
Any ideas on what the leftover poaching liquid can be used for?
Pingback:Din Tai Fung review – the biggest restaurant chain you've never heard of | The Picky Glutton
Pingback:A Rice Beer Recipe | TempestTcup
Does the type of chicken make any difference? Chicken fresh and frozen?
E.g. China Chicken, Malaysian, Australian etc…
Hi would it taste as good If I buy chicken that is already chop up?
Using the poaching method, with a whole chicken, how long is the cooking time? It seems to be 10 minutes plus time to cool… is that right?

5 Questions About This Product
Q: "Nurseryworks' finishes and wood?"A: Nurseryworks furniture is handcrafted from woods finished with non-toxic and certified-safe lacquer and veneers. A child can not be harmed by these finishes. Furniture may be affected by a teething child. Replacement parts, touch-up paint, and wood stain pens are available for sale from Nurseryworks. Nurseryworks products are handcrafted and made of woods. Wood is a natural material, which may bend and cause a variation in the alignment of the drawers. Should this occur, Nurseryworks recommends attaching felt tabs or rubber pieces underneath the drawers to ensure that the drawers align.
Q: "Manufactured in?A: Taiwan
Q: "How should Nurseryworks furniture be cared for?"A: A cotton cloth and a nontoxic cleanser will handle most needs. Nurseryworks fabrics are stain and water resistant; blotting a stain immediately with water will remove most spills.

Periodic polishing or oiling of legs that have a stain finish will maintain the rich tones.

Latest update : 2012-01-02
2011: a year of protests
From the Arab Spring to the Occupy and 'Indignants' movements, social networks have played a key role in the unrest that has shaken the world throughout 2011. And some of the most popular viral videos of the past twelve months…
2011: a year of protests
2011 was quite clearly a year of protests. From the uprisings of the Arab Spring, the "Occupy" or "Indignant" movements, (in Europe and North America in particular), against corporate greed and the abuses of capitalism, to the wave of democratic fervor in Russia: the past twelve months have seen a proliferation of protest movements across the globe, with the web, and more specifically social networks playing a major role.
The people of Tunisia, Egypt and Libya made great use of Facebook and Twitter to organize their revolutions, with cyber activists taking to these social media sites to denounce the abuses of their respective and weakening regimes and also to share their iron, unwavering will to obtain political change. By posting comments and videos, web users were able to use these platforms to mobilize support and report in more or less real time on how these popular uprisings were progressing. And social networks continue to play a key role in the Arab World revolutions, particularly so in Syria; they provide an area of freedom where citizens can protest against the government and bear witness to the repression inflicted upon them.
But it is not just the Arab Spring movements turning to the web and social networks, far from it. In Europe and North America, activists have been coordinating mass demonstrations online to protest against the abuses of capitalism and corporate greed. Throughout the year reports of rallies from Spain to Greece to a number of cities across the United States, have been relayed via the web. The so called "indignants" and supporters of the Occupy movement have been using all sorts of online tools to encourage their fellow citizens to take action in this fight against social injustice.
And Russia was also caught up in the wave of unrest that has swept across the globe since the beginning of the year. When Vladimir Putin's government was reelected, amid much controversy, people took to the streets demanding democratic reforms, the protest movement has grown steadily over the past weeks, and once again this is largely down to the use of social networks, particularly so as they provide a means of bypassing the censorship of official state media.
Although they have different objectives, these movements all have one thing in common: they can all count on the support of various hacker groups, like the "hacktivists" from informal hacker group Anonymous. They stepped forward and offered the protest movements their support by carrying out a series of cyber-attacks and finding ways for cyber activists to bypass censorship and protect their online communications.
The videos of the year
Funny, unnerving, endearing, here are just some of the online videos that have created a buzz over the past twelve months.
In April, one mobile phone company made the most of the excitement surrounding the wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton by releasing this video which went viral. It's a parody of the wedding ceremony, using lookalikes of the Royal Family dancing their way into the cathedral.
On an entirely different note… this video of an antelope ramming a cyclist in the South African savanna. Fortunately the man was more shaken than anything else and came out unscathed, but he's unlikely to forget this astonishing encounter in a hurry.
And on video sharing platforms, cats were taking center stage, the little fluff balls were everywhere, but this year it was a fictional kitty that stole the show. "Nyan Cat" with his rainbow and frenzied music has drawn millions of fans and inspired a multitude of parodies.
And finally, throughout 2011, the Internet has provided a platform for musicians and singers to share their talents with the general public. Jorge Narvaez and his 6 year old daughter Alexa for example became online sensations with this rendition of the Edward Sharpe and Magnetic Zeroes track "Home".

Gallery: Green-Roofed La Llotja Theater Takes Color Cues from the Fruit...
The theater, which is situated between the Seu Vella Mountain and the Segre River, resembles a flat plateau that seems to have sprouted from beneath the ground. Clad in slightly varied colors of stone like a tortoise shell, the building has an organic look that is betrayed only by the bursts of color emanating from within its large glass windows. Inside, the theater boasts 37,500 m2 of space with two main congress halls (the larger one doubles as a theater), a smaller congress hall with 200 seats, a multifunctional space, 9,500 m2 of parking, a public square of 15,325 m2, office space and retail.
La Llotja boasts several sustainable features like a cantilevered shape to provide shade and shelter, PVs, and thermal storage. But its most noticeable green design element is also the most enjoyable – the roof garden. Laced with pergolas supporting a range of roses, jasmine and ivy, the spacious deck and lounge has a view of the old city and the Segre River. In addition to providing a place for Lleida's citizens to hang out, the green roof also keeps the building cool in the summer.
Green roofs like the one on La Llotja reduce the urban heat island effect, insulate interior spaces, and help minimize stormwater runoff.

Why was "tantrum" trending last week?
Old English hydan "to hide, conceal; preserve; hide oneself; bury a corpse," from West Germanic *hudjan (cf. Middle Dutch, Middle Low German huden), from PIE *keudh- (cf. Greek keuthein "to hide, conceal"), from root *(s)keu- "to cover, conceal" (see hide (n.1)). Hide and seek (by 1670s), children's game, replaced earlier all hid (1580s).
"skin of a large animal," Old English hyd "hide, skin," from Proto-Germanic *hudiz (cf. Old Norse huð, Old Frisian hed, Middle Dutch huut, Dutch huid, Old High German hut, German Haut "skin"), related to Old English verb hydan "to hide," the common notion being of "covering."
All of this is from PIE root *(s)keu- "to cover, conceal" (cf. Sanskrit kostha "enclosing wall," skunati "covers;" Armenian ciw "roof;" Latin cutis "skin," scutum "shield," ob-scurus "dark;" Greek kytos "a hollow, vessel," keutho "to cover, to hide," skynia "eyebrows;" Russian kishka "gut," literally "sheath;" Lithuanian kiautas "husk," kutis "stall;" Old Norse sky "cloud;" Old English sceo "cloud;" Middle High German hode "scrotum;" Old High German scura, German Scheuer "barn;" Welsh cuddio "to hide").
The alliterative pairing of hide and hair (often negative, hide nor hair) was in Middle English (early 15c.), but earlier and more common was hide ne hewe, literally "skin and complexion ('hue')" (c.1200).
"measure of land" (obsolete), Old English hid "hide of land," earlier higid, from hiw- "family" (cf. hiwan "household," hiwo "a husband, master of a household"), from Proto-Germanic *hiwido-, from PIE *keiwo- (cf. Latin civis "citizen"), from root *kei- "to lie; bed, couch; beloved, dear" (see cemetery, and cf. city).
The notion was of "amount of land needed to feed one free family and dependents," usually 100 or 120 acres, but the amount could be as little as 60, depending on the quality of the land. Often also defined as "as much land as could be tilled by one plow in a year." Translated in Latin as familia.
horsehide (1940s+ Baseball)Related Terms
take it out of someone's hide, tan
the pelt taken from a cow, steer, or bull of the bovine species, from the pelt of a horse, or from the integument of some other large adult animal. The pelts of smaller animals are commonly called skins-namely, sheepskins, goatskins, calfskins, etc. For the preservation and tanning of hides, see leather.

Is the Cleveland Clinic the city of Cleveland's savior?
Blog Entry:

Cleveland Clinic spinoff will work to commercialize breast cancer vaccine
Cleveland Clinic spinoff will work to commercialize breast cancer vaccine
Can the
Cleveland Clinic
save Cleveland?
That's the question at the heart of
this story
Forbes calls the Clinic campus "a gleaming testament to modern medicine stretching out over 46 buildings and covering 167 acres." During the tenure of CEO Toby Cosgrove, its revenues nearly have doubled to $6.2 billion.
"Four minutes down Euclid Avenue from the Clinic is
University Hospitals
of Cleveland, a $2.3 billion facility also ranked among the nation's finest," the magazine says of Cleveland's health care assets. "University employs 19,000. A third hospital system,
, employs another 6,200."
Tom Gentile, CEO of
GE Healthcare Systems
, who lived in Cleveland in the early 1990s, tells the magazine, "The whole corridor between University Hospital and the Clinic has regenerated. I barely recognize it. The Clinic has attracted the best physicians in the world. It is a focal point."
notes the city has done less well, and 85% of its income tax revenue now comes from people who live in the suburbs. Health care "is the city's saving grace and a key factor in why Moody's Investors Service recently kept an A1 rating on the city's general obligation debt," according to the story.
"Health care has definitely been a stabilizing factor for them," says Moody's analyst Hetty Chang.
The story also notes that Dr. Cosgrove has "pushed to spin off companies from the clinic — 60 of them in the past decade. Together they have raised $700 million in outside equity funding and created 1,000 jobs."
also looks at the Clinic's significant involvement in launching the
Global Center for Health Innovation
, which it says is "emerging as an
Epcot Center
for med tech" with high-profile tenants including GE Healthcare, Siemens, Philips Health Care and Cardinal Health. Dr. Cosgrove personally made a heavy push to attract another key tenant, the
Healthcare Information & Management Systems Society
, which takes up 30,000 square feet of the facility.
"Playing off Cleveland's strength, which is the Clinic, makes a lot more sense than playing off another industry," one venture capitalist tells
Dr. Cosgrove hopes for an economic spark from the Global Center, telling the magazine, "It will begin to influence the city as it comes back and make it a destination medical city."
This and that
Coming up short
that public pension liabilities in five states, including Ohio, "could represent more than 40 percent of their local economies," according to an analysis released on Tuesday by a conservative group that lowered the assumed rate of return for pensions' investments.
The group, State Budget Solutions, which aims to reform budgeting practices by state and local governments, "used a rate of return that is less than half the historical averages that are used by most public pensions," Reuters says.
State Budget Solutions "found retirement systems are short $4.1 trillion to pay future benefits in total, based on a projected rate of return on investments of 3.225 percent, which it said was the 15-year Treasury bond yield on Aug. 21," according to the story. Historical averages "are usually between 7 percent and 8 percent."
Ohio has the greatest shortfall as a percentage of its gross state product, at 56%, followed by New Mexico, at 53%, according to State Budget Solutions.
Reuters notes that conservative political leaders such as U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch, a Republican from Utah who is making a strong push for public pension reform, say pension systems should rely on a "risk-free rate" in line with the yields paid by Treasuries.
Using the "risk-free" rate, State Budget Solutions said Ohio has a shortfall at $287.37 billion.
More choices:
Developers are beginning to see Brooklyn, N.Y., as an alternative office locale for New York's technology and media firms, Bloomberg
, and that's a good development for
Forest City Enterprises Inc.
Industrial buildings in Brooklyn "evoke a feel similar to Manhattan's midtown south, where demand has driven rents out of reach for some tenants in those fields, while the borough is experiencing a broader renaissance as retail districts flourish and home prices surge," according to the story.
While the push to expand its office space is just getting off the ground, Brooklyn is already in the midst of a housing and construction boom, Bloomberg notes.
The area "enjoys probably the hottest real estate market in the country now, particularly for residential," says Bruce Ratner, chairman of
Forest City Ratner Cos.
, the New York arm of Cleveland-based Forest City Enterprises. In Brooklyn, his company developed a 3.7 million-square-foot campus called MetroTech as well as the Barclays Center, the year-old downtown arena that last month hosted MTV's Video Music Awards.
Credit function:
Huntington Bank
is getting
back in the credit card business
The Wall Street Journal
reports that Columbus-based Huntington, a major player in Northeast Ohio's banking scene, today will launch a consumer credit card "that allows customers to choose among rewards in 13 categories or low interest rates on their revolving balances."
The move "reflects the trend of banks setting up one-stop shopping experiences for their customers by offering a wide assortment of financial products,"
The Journal
says. By not having its own card, "Huntington essentially has been allowing its customers to form relationships with other card-issuing banks."
The new card marks the first time Huntington will issue and service credit card accounts since 1999, when it outsourced those functions for its $585 million portfolio to Chase Manhattan Bank, a predecessor to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. Huntington has been completely without a card since 2012, when a relationship with Bank of America ended, the newspaper notes.
You are what you eat:
seems obvious, but it's good advice anyway.
"People who changed their eating habits for the better following a heart attack tended to live longer than those who stuck to eating not-so-heart-healthy foods in a new U.S. study," Reuters reports.
Among some 4,000 men and women, those whose post-heart attack diets improved the most were 30% less likely to die from any cause and 40% less likely to die of heart disease, compared to those whose diets improved least.
"This study really suggests that lifestyle changes — specifically those geared toward making changes in your diet — will have an impact," says Dr. David J. Frid, a preventive cardiologist at the
Cleveland Clinic
who was not involved in the study.
"I think it's something we've assumed for a long time, but we had no compelling data to substantiate it."

Read To Your Health
Read to Your Health
On the eve of 2009, it is time to draw up that list of resolutions for the new year. Many people resolve year after year to lose weight or otherwise to take better care of their health. Reading is an excellent activity to help achieve these health-related resolutions.
Seriously? How so?
The act of reading for pleasure slows down respiration, heart rate, and skin temperature, and provides the perfect bridge into sleep and dreams. Inadequate sleep is a known factor contributing to obesity, diabetes, and heart disease, all conditions on the rise in American society. By making a little time for bedtime reading, you insure a better and more healthful night's sleep and are more likely to feel like meeting the challenges of the new day. Reading may be the ideal sleeping pill and, if you become addicted, well, as Martha Stewart says, "It's a good thing." And, if your kids are reading by flashlight under the covers, that's a good thing, too, so pretend you don't know.
Reading also prepares the body to ward off disease. In a study at the Center for Occupational and Environmental Neurology in Baltimore, neurologist Margit L. Bleecker found that factory workers exposed to lead suffered far less mental impairment if they were good readers. It is not that these workers were smarter, but that their reading gave them more cognitive reserve, that is, better or more resilient neural connections in the brain, which allowed them to perform 2.5 times better on tests of memory, attention, and concentration. Dr. Bleecker concluded that the brain is like a muscle, and exercising it strengthens it and makes it better able to counter the ravages of disease and poisoning.
Another study found that reading daily predicts improved aging and reduced mortality among men from a cohort of community-dwelling 70-year-olds.
Reading, along with other mental and physical activity, can help prevent or slow Alzheimer's disease. According to a news report on CNN, scientists now understand that the brain continually rewires and adapts itself. In the teenage years, large brain-cell growth continues, and even older adults can grow new neurons. Scientists at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, studied 550 people and found that those less mentally and physically active in middle age were three times more likely to get Alzheimer's. Reading habits between the ages of 6 and 18 can also predict risk of getting the disease.
Research has also shown that reading aloud and arithmetic calculation stimulate brain function, and promote cognitive rehabilitation of dementia patients.
Besides having a proven positive physiological impact on the body, pleasure reading allows the mind to relax. Stories have the power to transport a reader to other worlds and to take the mind away from daily stress and anxiety. Some medical practices in England are beginning to include book discussion activities to encourage socialization and mental health. (No wonder we feel so refreshed and stimulated after our book discussions at the library!)
Consultant occupational physician at Bristol Royal Infirmary Dr Robin Philipp is a firm believer in the healing power of poetry, having found that reading poetry to patients and encouraging them to write it appears to have a calming effect. Philipp is to undertake a clinical trial of poetry therapy as part of a World Health Organization project on mental health. Another research study in Germany found that reciting rhythmic poetry, such as that by Longfellow, can calm the heartbeat and give the heart muscle a rest.
So, resolve to include reading in your evening routine in the new year. In fact, this should be so pleasant and painless that you may want to get an early start. How about tonight? Read in the new year. Want some suggestions, or need a book? Call the library at 988-2541.

Komen Race for the Cure returns
Sunday, March 3, 2013
PORTSMOUTH — New Hampshire's second annual Komen Race for the Cure returns to Strawbery Banke Museum on May 11, 2013; sponsorships, in the form of cash or in-kind donations at all levels, are available now.
The chance of a woman getting invasive breast cancer sometime during her life is about 1 in 8. Think of that. The chance of dying from breast cancer is about 1 in 36. The fact is, however, that breast cancer death rates have been going down, most probably due to earlier detection and better treatments. Right now there are more than 2.9 million breast cancer survivors in the United States.

Poorly trained cop beats woman in IHOP after he slaps her and she hits him. There are at least two angles of this event (here's the other: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Pw-bEwEUvI ).
This again comes via a social media site for cops, with lots of comments by other cops. It's pathetic and rife with remarkable quips. The big question is: What are the details of why the cops were called in the first place? The big lesson is: Get out of private property if the owner requests you do so, and run if the cops are called.
