It is the policy of the Federal Government to treat all of its employees with dignity and respect and to provide a workplace that is free from discrimination whether that discrimination is based on race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity or pregnancy), national origin, disability, political affiliation, marital status, membership in an employee organization, age, sexual orientation, or other non-merit factors. Agencies should review their anti-discrimination policies to ensure that they afford a non-discriminatory working environment to employees irrespective of their gender identity or perceived gender non-conformity.
The purpose of this memorandum is not to address legal rights and remedies, but instead to provide guidance to address some of the common questions that agencies have raised with OPM regarding the employment of transgender individuals in the federal workplace. Because the guidance is of necessity general in nature, managers, supervisors, and transitioning employees should feel free to consult with their human resources offices and with the Office of Personnel Management to seek advice in individual circumstances.
Gender identity is the individual's internal sense of being male or female. Gender identity is generally determined in the early years of an individual's life and, if different from the individual's physical gender, may result in increasing psychological and emotional discomfort and pain. The way an individual expresses his or her gender identity is frequently called "gender expression," and may or may not conform to social stereotypes associated with a particular gender.
Transgender: Transgender individuals are people with a gender identity that is different from the sex assigned to them at birth. Someone who was assigned the male sex at birth but who identifies as female is a transgender woman. Likewise, a person assigned the female sex at birth but who identifies as male is a transgender man. Some individuals who would fit this definition of transgender do not identify themselves as such, and identify simply as men and women, consistent with their gender identity. The guidance discussed in this memorandum applies whether or not a particular individual self-identifies as transgender.
Transition: Some individuals will find it necessary to transition from living and working as one gender to another. These individuals often seek some form of medical treatment such as counseling, hormone therapy, electrolysis, and reassignment surgery. Some individuals, however, will not pursue some (or any) forms of medical treatment because of their age, medical condition, lack of funds, or other personal circumstances. Managers and supervisors should be aware that not all transgender individuals will follow the same pattern, but they all are entitled to the same consideration as they undertake the transition steps deemed appropriate for them, and should all be treated with dignity and respect.
The World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH), an international organization devoted to the study and treatment of gender-identity-related issues, has published the WPATH Standards of Care, which explains gender transition as a process that may include therapy, hormones, and possibly surgical procedures, or any combination of them. In particular, as explained by the WPATH Standards of Care, a transgender individual's gender transition will usually proceed in the following order. First, the individual will meet with a mental health provider to ascertain what transition steps are most appropriate to address the lack of congruity between his or her gender identity and the sex assigned to him or her at birth. Second, after appropriate evaluation and counseling, the individual may begin a course of hormone therapy, usually under the supervision of both her mental health provider and an endocrinologist. Third, after a period of time on hormone therapy, an individual will be ready to commence the "real life experience," which is when an individual transitions to living full-time in the gender role that is consistent with his or her gender identity. It is at this point that an employer is most often made aware that an employee is transgender and undertaking a gender transition.
Gender identity health care providers recognize commencement of the real life experience as often the most important stage of transition, and, for a significant number of people, the last step necessary for them to complete a healthy gender transition. As the name suggests, the real life experience is designed to allow the transgender individual to experience living full-time in the gender role to which he or she is transitioning. Completion of at least one year of the real life experience is required prior to an individual's being deemed eligible for gender reassignment surgery.
There are several issues that commonly generate questions from managers and employees who are working with a transitioning employee. In order to assist you in ensuring that transitioning employees are treated with dignity and respect, we offer the following guidance on those issues.
Confidentiality and Privacy: An employee's transition should be treated with as much sensitivity and confidentiality as any other employee's significant life experiences, such as hospitalization or marital difficulties. Employees in transition often want as little publicity about their transition as possible. They may be concerned about safety and employment issues if other people or employers become aware that he or she has transitioned. Moreover, medical information received about individual employees is protected under the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a).
Employing agencies, managers, and supervisors should be sensitive to these special concerns and advise employees not to spread information concerning the employee who is in transition: gossip and rumor-spreading in the workplace about gender identity are inappropriate. Other employees may be given only general information about the employee's transition; personal information about the employee should be considered confidential and should not be released without the employee's prior agreement. Questions regarding the employee should be referred to the employee himself or herself. If it would be helpful and appropriate, employing agencies may have a trainer or presenter meet with employees to answer general questions regarding gender identity. Issues that may arise should be discussed as soon as possible confidentially between the employee and his or her managers and supervisors.
Dress and Appearance: Employees who begin the "real life experience" stage of their transition are required under the WPATH Standards of Care to live and work full-time in the target gender in all aspects of their life, which includes dressing at all times in the clothes of the target gender. Once an employee has informed management that he or she is transitioning, the employee will begin wearing the clothes associated with the gender to which the person is transitioning. Agency dress codes should be applied to employees transitioning to a different gender in the same way that they are applied to other employees of that gender. Dress codes should not be used to prevent a transgender employee from living full-time in the role consistent with his or her gender identity.
Names and Pronouns: Managers, supervisors, and coworkers should use the name and pronouns appropriate to the employee's new gender. Further, managers, supervisors, and coworkers should take care to use the correct name and pronouns in employee records and in communications with others regarding the employee. Continued intentional misuse of the employee's new name and pronouns, and reference to the employee's former gender by managers, supervisors, or coworkers may undermine the employee's therapeutic treatment, and is contrary to the goal of treating transitioning employees with dignity and respect. Such misuse may also breach the employee's privacy, and may create a risk of harm to the employee.
Sanitary and Related Facilities: The Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (DOL/OSHA) guidelines require agencies to make access to adequate sanitary facilities as free as possible for all employees in order to avoid serious health consequences. For a transitioning employee, this means that, once he or she has begun living and working full-time in the gender that reflects his or her gender identity, agencies should allow access to restrooms and (if provided to other employees) locker room facilities consistent with his or her gender identity. While a reasonable temporary compromise may be appropriate in some circumstances, transitioning employees should not be required to have undergone or to provide proof of any particular medical procedure (including gender reassignment surgery) in order to have access to facilities designated for use by a particular gender. Under no circumstances may an agency require an employee to use facilities that are unsanitary, potentially unsafe for the employee, or located at an unreasonable distance from the employee's work station. Because every workplace is configured differently, agencies with questions regarding employee access to any facilities within an agency should contact OPM for further guidance.
Recordkeeping: Consistent with the Privacy Act, the records in the employee's Official Personnel Folder (OPF) and other employee records (pay accounts, training records, benefits documents, and so on) should be changed to show the employee's new name and gender, once the employee has begun working full-time in the gender role consistent with the employee's gender identity. See 5 U.S.C. 552a(d). Instructions for how to reconstruct an employee's OPF to account for a gender change are set forth in Chapter 4, How to Reconstruct a Personnel Folder.
Insurance Benefits: Employees in transition who already have Federal insurance benefits must be allowed to continue their participation, and new employees must be allowed to elect participation, in their new names and genders. If the employees in transition are validly married at the time of the transition, the transition does not affect the validity of that marriage, and spousal coverage should be extended or continued even though the employee in transition has a new name and gender. Further information about insurance coverage issues can be found on the web at OPM's Insure website, or by contacting the relevant OPM insurance program office.
Specific Questions: For further guidance on these issues, contact the Diversity Program Manager, Office of Diversity and Inclusion, Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E Street, NW, Washington, DC 20415, at (202) 606-0020.

Blue Jays steal momentum, set up rubber game
The Toronto Blue Jays will look to continue their momentum after a come-from-behind victory Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers when the two teams battle it out in the rubber match of their three-game series at Comerica Park on Thursday.
Toronto's early struggles have been well documented, as the club has been out of sync in all three phases of its game since the season began.
"I know that all we have to report on is what we see each day, and it's going to be a story. You just can't react to tiny sample sizes at this point," Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said prior to Wednesday's contest.
Things turned in Toronto's favour on Wednesday in the sixth inning after Detroit took an early five-run lead. The trio of Rick Porcello, Brayan Villarreal and Darin Downs surrendered the Tigers' lead, giving up seven runs in the sixth and seventh inning combined, proving to be the difference in the ballgame.
Before Wednesday's middle-innings meltdown, the Tigers looked to be in complete control of the first two games of the series, and they'll look to rebound on Thursday.
Starting for the Tigers will be Doug Fister, who earned the victory in Detroit's home opener against the New York Yankees last Friday. Fister allowed three runs on six hits while walking two and striking out two over five innings.
Josh Johnson will make his second start for the Blue Jays and hopes to emerge with his first victory since joining the team. Johnson took a no-decision in his first start with Toronto on Friday, allowing three earned runs on nine hits, while striking out six over six innings.
Tigers: Leyland seems set on a closer
• With Jose Valverde beginning his comeback attempt in Florida and Bruce Rondon in Triple-A Toledo, the closing duties appear to have fallen to Joaquin Benoit.
"On a lot of the days, if it's doable, I think Benoit is the most experienced and versatile enough against righties and lefties to pitch the ninth," said manager Jim Leyland on Wednesday.
• Victor Martinez returned to the Tigers' lineup after missing Tuesday's contest with a cut thumb and went 0-for-4 while leaving four runners on base. He did collect an RBI by coaxing a bases-loaded walk in a four-run fifth inning.
• The top four batters in Detroit's lineup -- Austin Jackson, Torii Hunter, Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder -- are all off to great starts this season, batting a collective .365 with three home runs and 23 RBIs.
Blue Jays: Struggles continue defensively
• Toronto has struggled defensively all season, most notably Emilio Bonifacio at second and Maicer Izturis at third. Combined they have six of the team's eight errors, while playing at slightly unfamiliar positions.
• J.P. Arencibia, Wednesday's hero with a three-run go-ahead double in the seventh inning, has started the year red hot, batting .313 with three home runs and seven RBIs.
• Toronto starters have allowed 30 earned runs in 41 1/3 innings for a 6.53 ERA through the team's first eight games.
Worth noting
• Blue Jays third baseman Brett Lawrie will play in an extended spring game on Thursday, his first since his injury in early March.

Columbia University Dance Team
The Columbia University Dance Team is a collegiate dance team that performs and appears locally and competes nationally. The team was founded in 1994 by Francine DeSanctis.
For more information, email the team at email@example.com
We compete in the Spring Semester at the NDA National Collegiate Championship held each year in Daytona Beach, FL. The Dance Team has placed in the Top 10 in Division I Finals three times in the past four years.
We perform on campus and locally at various events, including: Columbia Men's and Women's Basketball games, and Volleyball games. The team appears at events such as home Football games and the annual Coogan Run. Please see our Calendar of Events for dates and locations of performances.
Style of Dance
The Team performs routines comprising of three distinct styles of dance: Jazz, Hip-Hop and Pom. Precision and uniformity as a Team transcends all three styles of dance, as these are the key qualities that we are judged on.
Auditions are held each year in September and April. We welcome dancers of all backgrounds. Each dancer auditioning should be able to execute mid to advanced level leaps and turns. These elements include triple pirouettes, fouette turns, and various switch-leaps. Prospective dance team members need not be able to perform all of these elements at the time of their audition. However these elements will be expected from each team member by mid-season.
Auditions will be held over the course of two to three days during which you will be taught several eight counts of choreography. You will be notified by the morning after the last day of auditions as to whether you have been invited to join the team.
Please wear form fitting clothing and dance footwear to the audition. Please do not wear tennis shoes.
You must bring proof of insurance and passed physical in the last calendar year in order to participate.
Practice and Conditioning
The Team holds 2 ½ to 3-hour practice sessions each Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday night in Dodge Fitness Center located on Columbia University's main campus. All members are also required to condition (running, light weights and abs) on off-days.
Each Team member is expected to spend 1-3 hours a week helping the Team fundraise the money to pay for our Team to go to the NDA National Collegiate Championship.

Belmont voters take little time to add money for rescue boat
"It was the quickest town meeting I have ever been associated with," said Selectman Ronald Cormier Jr., who has been a selectmen in town for nine years.
On the proposed budget, Article 7 asked voters to approve $10,000 for the purchase of a rescue and fire suppression boat, with the money to come from the town's Fire/Ambulance Equipment and Apparatus Special Revenue Fund. The town isn't sure yet if it will buy a new or used boat, Cormier said.
The budget committee had recommended $10,000 for the boat, but the selectmen had recommended $25,000.
Voters chose to amend the article to the $25,000 figure.
"There was some discussion and the people felt they needed more for the boat," Cormier said.
Article 4, which would raise $355,000 to replace 3,750 feet of water line within Belmont Village, did not draw much discussion. The town hopes that all of the project's costs would be paid for by a government Community Development Block Grant Program.
Also going without much discussion was Article 6, which asks voters to approve $180,000 for a new fire department ambulance, with the funds to come from the Fire/Ambulance Equipment and Apparatus Special Revenue Fund.
The new ambulance would replace two town ambulances, both of which will be used as trade-ins or sold outright to help pay for the new ambulance.
Voting will take place on March 12 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at Belmont High School.

I had a terrible time deciding between a Colima ceramic dog and this color lithograph by Rufino Tamayo but the lithograph finally won out, partly because I've never seen the actual print, but would love to. I could also imagine that huge, slick ,white dog of Nara's getting sick of just standing in place for years, being observed and laughed at. At night, he probably throws back his head and howls!

Cant believe the amazing deal on these cordless, lined roman shades! I have been wanting them but all the ones I have seen have been so expansive (and not as good as quality). I loved them so much I have since purchased several others!
My husband didn't find the directions all that good, but was able to put it up without too much trouble. The window moulding of my bathroom window has a curve to it, so it was a bit tricky to install within the frame. All in all it looks good, though. Hope it lasts.
Color, function, and style are fantastic. Be prepared to get what you pay for. Three of the four shades we ordered were on target with shade consistency. The fourth was much darker and needed to be returned. (Think tan versus brown.) Also, a few of the wing nuts did not fit properly, and had to be forced on. Luckily, my husband is handy and made it work. Overstock.com was very helpful with the return and replacement, and in the end we are happy with our purchase. The fabric lining on these shades puts them above and beyond anything comparable in terms of energy savings.
Very hard to find shades that are truly cordless and that have lining for privacy. These have both. Easy to install. The colors of my 2 shades in this size don't exactly match but because I plan on ordering more in this size, I am sure it will all work out!!

Don't worry though, we have a lot more Men's Mountain Bike Saddles in stock than that.
WTB Silverado SLT Saddle $0.00
Reviews & Community
What do you think of the
WTB Silverado SLT Saddle

looks great and saves your taint & g's
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Originally I was going to buy a fizik saddle that I used to have on a Cannondale team scalpel from 2007. I didn't end up w/ that saddle due to the vendor no longer manufacturing the specific color I wanted. I wanted to give this a try since my friend has a wtb saddle on his bike that I've road around a couple of times. I mtb and do a fair amount of climbing since I live in an area that has 0-9000ft in elevation changes on a good ride. The saddle I had prior to this purchase was a stock bontrager saddle. I've never been a fan of them. Reason why is that they always give me some nasty monkey butt on long 5-6 hour rides. I would snap a pic, but I would be crossing the line ;) I have since swapped that saddle for this and as a man feel like I've done my goods a favor. On those 5-6 hour rides w/ thousands of feet of elevation change, I no longer have that red burn in that certain area. That means no more evenings applying vaseline every 2 hours between the nutz and loaf pincher. I would not say this saddle is as long as a fizik, but for me it is very comfortable and ergonomical. Works well for a lot of pedaling and shifting around on steep technical business. Looks cool and is super light. I would buy again for another bike in the future.
Too small and uncomfortable
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
Seems fairly lightweight and just enough padding, but the profile is way too narrow for me. Really uncomfortable and had to return it.
Comfy and light
Great, comfortable, and light saddle at a bargain price. I use it for endurance races and I have no problems with it.
Stephen Darcy
Sleek, Light, and Fast
I have this on my DH and slalom bike. It is absolutely the best saddle especially for DH. It has a fairly wide rear profile, which is perfectly suited for using the saddle during cornering and also through technical terrain. Low profile looks awesome on my rig and it's way light to boot!

I was only moderately excited about this cover and soon grew to hate it when I could NOT get it to come off. I struggled to get the darn thing to open back up but it was impossible - I needed something that would come off a bit easier because I work out a lot and put my iPhone in an armband and it won't fit with a case. I finally had to break the damn thing to get it to let go of the death grip it had on my phone. As a side note, the white plastic absorbs stains like nobody's business. and good luck trying to clean it...
We ordered two and the clip was broken on both and so now they don't stay on the phone correctly.
This is a really nice case. Makes the iphone look even sleeker thatn without a case.
I would not recommend this case simply because I have this nice iphone 4s and this now ghetto case. At first glance it looks as though the case is just dirty but upon a closer look it looks like it is burned around the white edges. Not pretty.
Gets dirty easily because of the material and color. Also, the back has a ridge so it doesn't lay flat on surfaces.
The items must arrive at our warehouse within 30 days of purchase. You must return items in their original condition to qualify for a full refund. We will issue a partial refund of up to 70 percent if returned items have been opened, used, or returned late. More details

*Synthetic clothing dries quickly and is the best choice for outdoor pursuits. Please do not wear cotton clothing. When wet, cotton rapidly robs the heat from your body and takes a long time to dry. We also recommend you dress in multiple layers, allowing you more flexibility to comfortably respond to the weather conditions and your level of exertion.
Please call ahead if you plan to use your own equipment as it must pass inspection by L.L.Bean staff before use. If it's deemed unsuitable, we will provide you with the necessary equipment.

What you once were is history, because you slowly become something else so you can met her expectations, because she usually is high matienance, demanding jewelry and designer clothes

Rectal cancer is cancer in the rectum, the last part of the large intestine. The rectum allows waste to pass through the anal canal and out of the body.
Cancer occurs when cells in the body divide without control or order. Eventually, these uncontrolled cells form a growth or tumor. The term cancer refers to malignant growths. These growths invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body. It is not clear exactly what causes these problems in the cells, but is probably a combination of genetics and the environment.
Risk Factors
Being over 50 years of age increases your chance of rectal cancer. Other factors that may increase your chance of rectal cancer include:
In most cases, there are no symptoms with rectal cancer. When symptoms do appear, they may include:
- A change in bowel habits
- Blood, either bright red, or black and tarry, in the stool
- Stools that are narrower than usual
- Diarrhea, constipation, or feeling that the bowel does not empty completely
- General abdominal discomfort, such as frequent gas pains, bloating, fullness, and/or cramps
- Unexplained weight loss
- Constant feeling of fatigue or tiredness
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Your rectum will be checked for lumps or abnormal areas.
Your stool may be tested. This can be done with:
- Blood tests
- Fecal occult blood test
- Biopsy
Your bodily structures may need to be viewed using an instrument. This can be done with:
Images may be taken of your bodily structures. This can be done with:
- Barium enema
- CT colonography
- CT scan
- Positron emission tomography (PET) scan
- Transrectal ultrasound
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment may include one or more of the following options:
Surgery is the main treatment for rectal cancer. There are several options for surgery depending on the location of the cancer and how much it has spread:
- Polypectomy and local excision—Early stage removal of the cancer.
- Local transanal resection—Removal of the cancer with a margin of surrounding healthy tissue.
- Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM)—Removal of the cancer in the rectal wall with surrounding healthy tissue. The hole in the wall is sewn back together.
- Low anterior resection—Removal of the cancer, surrounding healthy tissue, and lymph nodes for cancers high in the rectum, closer to the colon.
- Proctectomy—Removal of the rectum. This surgery also involves attaching the end of the colon to the anal canal in order to preserve bowel function.
- Abdominoperineal resection—Removal of rectum, anal canal, and surrounding tissue.
- Pelvic exenteration—Removal of rectum, anal canal, and nearby organs with cancer, such as the prostate, uterus, or bladder.
Some surgeries may require temporary or permanent colostomies. A colostomy is a surgical opening through the wall of the abdomen into the colon. This is used as a path for waste material to leave the body. After a colostomy, you will wear a special bag to collect body waste. If the bladder is removed, you will also need a urostomy. A urostomy is an opening in the abdominal wall that allows for the passage of urine.
Radiation Therapy
Radiation is used to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. It is directed at the site of the tumor from a source outside the body. This therapy is aimed at the immediate area of the cancer. It is used alone or with chemotherapy.
This therapy uses drugs to kill cancer cells. It may be given in many forms, including pill, injection, and via a catheter. Drugs enter the bloodstream and travel through the body killing cancer cells. They can also kill healthy cells. This therapy is systemic, meaning it affects your entire body.
Targeted therapy uses medications to target and kill cancer cells, while sparing healthy tissue. They are currently used to treat advanced cancers. Targeted therapy is less harmful to healthy tissue, which reduces side effects. It may be used alone or in combination with chemotherapy.
Some medications can be used as part of a treatment plan. Other medications may help to either prevent or reduce side effects of treatments, or to manage certain side effects if they occur. These include:
- Corticosteroids
- Blood stem cell support medications
- Anti-nausea medications
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen
- Opioids
Tell your doctor when you notice a new symptom, and ask if any of these medications are right for you.
The causes of most cancers are not known. However, it is possible to prevent many colon and rectal cancers by finding and removing polyps that could become cancerous. Beginning at age 50, both men and women at average risk should follow one of the following screening options:
- Colonoscopy every 10 years
- Flexible sigmoidoscopy every 5 years
- CT colonography every 5 years
- Double-contrast barium enema every 5 years
- Stool DNA test every 3 years
- Annual fecal occult blood test (FOBT)
- Annual fecal immunochemical test (FIT)
People with any of the following risk factors should begin colon and rectal cancer screening earlier and/or undergo screening more often:
- African Americans or Native Americans
- Strong family history of colon or rectal cancer, or polyps
- Family history of hereditary colon or rectal cancer syndromes
- History of colon or rectal cancer, or adenomatous polyps
- History of chronic inflammatory bowel disease
Be sure to discuss colon cancer screening with your doctor to see how and when you should be screened.
Lifestyle Changes
There are also lifestyle changes that may reduce your risk of rectal cancer. These include:
- Not smoking
- Drinking alcohol in moderation—no more than 2 drinks a day if you are a man, and no more than 1 drink a day if you are a woman
- Eating a healthy diet high in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and low in red meat
- Being physically active by exercising at least 30 minutes a day on most days of the week
- Maintaining a healthy weight

Dennis Hopper Estate
Vintage stained mahogany mirror.
Dennis Hopper was an actor, a director, a passionate art collector, and a countercultural hero. He was as unforgettable onscreen--as the baby-faced Goon in Rebel Without A Cause, the iconic Billy in Easy Rider, or the menacing gas-huffing Frank Booth in Blue Velvet-- as he was in his life, and filled his eclectic homes with things (and people) he loved. With this Tastemaker Tag Sale, One Kings Lane is honored to bring our members these personal pieces from the estate of the legendary actor.
