This program introduces students to the social, political, economic, and environmental issues of development in Uganda. Students examine development theories from Ugandan perspectives, consider the historical context in which current development is taking place, and experience development in practice through engagement with local projects and practitioners. Students conduct a field-based research project or an in-depth, hands-on practicum with entrepreneurs or with an international or grassroots development agency.
The SIT Uganda program is a completely transforming experience, which sets the ultimate direction for so many people's lives. Uganda has always been and always will be intertwined through my life and soul. Everything I do comes back to lessons that I learned during this semester.
Michael Roscitt, University of Notre Dame
Emerging from a turbulent political past, Uganda is now on a firm path of economic and social recovery. As a result of two decades of economic and political reforms, the private sector, civil society, and nongovernmental organizations in Uganda are vibrant and expansive. The women's movement in Uganda is renowned for its influence throughout Africa. Uganda has also made significant strides in human rights, HIV/AIDS prevention, grassroots development, microfinance availability, community conservation, tourism and development, and studies of development-induced displacement.
While these changes are exciting, they raise many questions. Students explore the social issues that come with these transformations, along with topics related to development theory, foreign aid, the impact of recent oil discoveries, China's emerging influence, development as a contested terrain, and the sustainability of Uganda's recent advances.
Engagement with development practitioners, community activists, and Makerere University professors and lecturers provides students with the latest information, theories, debates, and expertise on issues in Uganda. Makerere University students are invited to SIT lectures, allowing local and US students to share ideas and perspectives.
For two weeks in the middle of the program, students concentrate their studies in one of five areas:
The first of these weeks is spent working with leading scholars at one of five partner institutions. The second week is spent at selected field study sites in and around Kampala.
Students work with organizations such as:
Weekly processing sessions, which are student-facilitated, provide an effective forum for sharing experiences, cultural insights, and adjustment within the group and with the academic director. The sessions focus on student questions and observations that emerge from lectures, excursions, and conversations with local people. These are augmented with discussions of readings on each program topic.
Rwanda, East Africa's fastest growing economy, provides a stark contrast with Uganda and with fellow member states of the East African Community. Students visit genocide memorials to help them understand and appreciate the impact of genocide on Rwandan communities and how post-genocide Rwanda has made great strides in national reconciliation. Rwandan professors and practitioners provide insights into how Rwanda, backed by rigorous evaluative mechanisms, is ensuring development projects are on track. By the end of the excursion, students have firsthand knowledge of Rwanda's booming economic growth and the substantive differences in Rwandan and Ugandan approaches to development.
Students have the option to pursue a research- or practicum-based Independent Study Project (ISP). In the practicum-based ISP, students select a development organization or social entrepreneurship initiative with which to complete a six-week practicum. In consultation with the academic director, the practicum can be completed in Kampala or other areas of Uganda with organizations engaged in a broad spectrum of development initiatives. The practicum integrates the information gained through the language, Development Studies, and Research Methods and Ethics courses. The practicum further provides opportunities to analyze development theories in a practical setting. In both forms of the ISP, a final paper and oral presentation are submitted for evaluation.

This program is designed to expose students to as many aspects of development in Uganda as possible. The program is deliberately structured to move from the general to the specific and from the theoretical to the practical. Thus, students first spend time as part of a group focusing on more general historical and contemporary development issues before going out into the field to investigate those theories and principles.
Studying in Uganda would be incomplete without looking at political and security issues, as well as related environmental issues, in the Great Lakes region. Students visit national parks in Uganda to focus on issues of conflict, eco-tourism, and conservation. In addition, the program takes students to neighboring Rwanda, the location of unprecedented genocide in 1994 and now a vibrant locus of economic development.
Development Studies Seminar – syllabus
(AFRS 3000 / 4 credits / 60 class hours)
This integrative, interdisciplinary course engages students in concepts and current debates in development studies, with emphasis on their relevance to development approaches in Uganda and, more broadly, East Africa. With development in Uganda as its focus, the course articulates local history and geography, contemporary political developments, and development priorities and approaches.
Lectures are held at Makerere University, the SIT Resource Centre, and related sites within and outside Kampala. They are conducted by professors from Makerere University and experts from private nongovernmental organizations and cultural institutions. Assignments integrate readings, lectures, processing sessions, field trips, and/or in-class discussions.
Educational excursions form a significant part of learning in the course. Sites visited may include Millennium villages, the Inter-African Committee on Traditional Practices Affecting the Health of Women and Children (an organization working to stop female genital mutilation), and Uganda's parliament — a site of animated debates at the intersection of politics and development.
Recent oil discoveries have come with their own challenges and add new dimensions to development discussions in Uganda. The uses and abuses of oil as a development strategy will be an additional focus of the program.
Luganda – syllabus
(LUGA 1000 / 3 credits / 45 class hours)
The primary role of Luganda language training is to provide students with the principal tools needed to gain insight into Uganda's many cultures and Luganda-speaking communities. Given its location in Kampala, where Luganda dominates, the program focuses on Luganda as the primary local lingua franca to best facilitate interactions and cross-cultural communication. The course is organized by a language coordinator and taught by a staff of native speakers experienced in teaching Luganda as a foreign language, with an emphasis on cross-cultural communication.
Language learning consists of 45 hours of formal instruction. Luganda study is reinforced through the homestay experience and various participatory and interactive assignments. Language instruction may also include simulations and field trips to supplement classroom learning.
Research Methods and Ethics – syllabus
(ANTH 3500 / 3 credits / 45 class hours)
The Research Methods and Ethics course is designed to prepare students to undertake independent field-based research or a practicum experience within a development organization setting in Uganda. The course provides the theoretical and practical frameworks to facilitate successful adjustment to life in Uganda and to enhance student capacity to accomplish challenging tasks in new and unfamiliar settings, while conducting field research or engaging in a practicum that is ethically, methodologically, and analytically sound.
The course prepares students for either a research- or practicum-based ISP experience using readings and activities designed to build skills in qualitative research methods, including rapid rural appraisal and participatory methods, as well as project selection and refinement. Finally, students consider the norms and expectations of ethical field engagement and reciprocity, while reflecting critically on their role as "outsiders" in the development process.
Independent Study Project – syllabus
(ISPR 3000 / 6 credits / 180 class hours)
Conducted in Uganda in an approved location appropriate to the project, students may pursue a research- or practicum-based ISP. For the latter, students select a development organization or social entrepreneurship venture, identified through the program's academic directors, with which to complete a six-week practicum. In consultation with the academic directors, the practicum can be completed in Kampala or other areas of Uganda with organizations engaged in a broad spectrum of development projects. The practicum helps to integrate the information gained through the Development Studies and the Research Methods and Ethics courses and, as appropriate, Luganda language studies. Both research- and practicum-based ISPs provide the opportunity to analyze development theories using data and reflections from field-based experience. In both forms of the ISP, a final paper and oral presentation are submitted for evaluation. Regular sessions are coordinated for students to share their progress, challenges, and experiences with each other and with faculty mentors in order to become more effective researchers and consultants. Sample topic areas: environmental conservation and development; rural finance self-help groups and poverty alleviation; decentralization, participatory processes, and community empowerment; health, education, and the effectiveness of the Millennium Villages Project.

Please note that in order to take advantage of dynamic learning opportunities, program excursions may occasionally vary.
During an excursion to western Uganda, students see the work of nongovernmental organizations (including Uganda Women's Efforts to Save Orphans and the Uganda Red Cross), explore Ankole cattle culture, learn about rural homestead appraisals, put research methods into practice, and visit the Nakivale refugee settlement and Queen Elizabeth National Park.
The program travels to Rwanda to compare Rwanda's and Uganda's significantly different approaches to development. Rwanda, East Africa's fastest growing economy, provides a stark contrast with Uganda and with fellow member states of the East African Community. Students visit genocide memorials to understand the impact of genocide on Rwandan communities, while also exploring examples of Rwanda's booming economic growth and the implementation of Rwanda's Vision 2020. Key site visits include the Rwanda Governance Board, which oversees the national development plan, and the Kigali Free Trade Zone, to consider the nation's development approaches in contrast to those of Uganda.
An excursion to eastern Uganda allows students to visit rural water schemes and projects for street children, gain insight into local circumcision practices, and conduct participatory research with a rural community.
The program also includes visits to sites of historical, cultural, and ecological significance, such as Kasubi Tombs, Uganda Museum, Kabaka's Trail, and the Sezibwa Falls.
The SIT staff played an absolutely critical role during my semester in Uganda and have remained instrumental in my life since, guiding me on many academic and career endeavors. They are the foundation of the SIT Uganda program and are the primary reason why the program has changed the lives of so many students that have passed through its doors

He is the author of highly contested articles on foreign aid, which include "Patronage Politics, Donor Reforms, and Regime Consolidation in Uganda" in African Affairs (2005), published with Tangari Roger. Mwenda's articles have been published in the International Herald Tribune, The Times, The Economist, The Washington Post, and The New York Times. He is the founder and editor of The Independent, regarded as one of Uganda's premier current affairs news magazines.
The homestay experience has always been a challenging, yet rewarding part of the Uganda: Development Studies program. It is an opportunity for SIT students to become directly immersed in a new culture by participating in household activities, interacting with homestay siblings, engaging in ongoing local development debates and discussions of daily importance, and attending traditional ceremonies. Homestays also help SIT students learn about the significance of the family in development processes and approaches of Uganda.
The program's academic director works with experienced homestay coordinators to find the most suitable host families for each student. The program features two homestays that are designed to introduce students to the cultural and economic diversity of Ugandan life.
Each student is placed in a different host family in the suburbs of Kampala from where they leave to attend the various program activities on a daily basis. Host families are carefully selected to represent the diverse social and economic characteristics of the people in Kampala. This diversity creates a great learning experience when students share their homestay experiences with each other through the processing sessions that take place at the end of each week.
Kampala is a vibrant cosmopolitan city representing a diverse range of ethnic groups in Uganda. The dominant language spoken in and around Kampala is Luganda. Since Luganda is the language taught on the program, a deliberate effort is made to place students with Luganda-speaking families.
The urban homestay is six weeks long with a break in the middle for a one-week educational excursion.
Eighty percent of Uganda's population lives in rural areas, so this homestay is aimed at exposing students to an agrarian way of life as experienced by most Ugandans. Students spend one week living among, engaging with, and learning from a rural community.
The rural homestay is conducted in Busia District in eastern Uganda at the border with Kenya, where the majority community is Samia-speaking. Students live in pairs with a host family in grass-thatched homes made of wattle and daub, with no running water and no electricity. Typical family size in this area ranges from 6 to 10 people.
During this homestay, students practice research methods with the host families as their primary resources. This opportunity to engage directly with Ugandans dealing with the challenges of rural development is a highlight for students.
Kelly Muenchen, fall 2011 student, talks about her homestay experience. Read more.

Authoritative compendium of statistics from the National Center for Education Statistics, provides a wealth of statistical information on education at all levels and from multifarious government perspectives. Topics in the Digest include: the number of schools and colleges; teachers; enrollments; graduates; educational attainment; finances; federal funds for education; employment and income of graduates; libraries; technology; and international comparisons.
Guest curated by graduate student Katie Wills
Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Two links forever joined. The Infinity Collection is a fresh take on the ancient symbol. A pair of elliptical smooth and cabled links interlace in perfect harmony. In pure precious metal or set with radiant stones, the designs evoke ageless symbolism with contemporary elegance.
"Gemstones have a beauty unlike anything else," explains David Yurman. He is known for his use of brilliant colored stones in bold dimensions and unconventional combinations. What makes them radiate is the designer's signature faceting. David Yurman has developed exclusive cuts that reveal a stone's fullest brilliance and color. Unique settings further highlight the beauty of the gems—proving once again that when this sculptor's skilled artistry meets nature's most beautiful materials, beautiful things happen.

Customer Reviews for Yellow / Cream Simply Chic Semi-Opaque
"Great conveinence"
By gail from texas
I was a little relunctant to spend so much on a cellular shade, but am glad I did! The ease of use in a hard to reach kitchen window made this choice a real time and effort saver for me. I love the remote control application. I am too short to reach above my sink to open and close blinds, so this is a real benefit to me.
View this product"Best Blind"
By Remodeling bath from Augusta, GA
We recently had our master bath completely remodeled. Although it looks great, adding the Kellie Clements blind was the final, needed touch! It was remarkably easy to install and came with extremely understandable instructions and quality packaging. Will add two more, similar products in the near future.

He is a shinobi from Konohagakure.
During the Nine-Tails' Attack on Konoha, Kurenai's father was seen placing the young shinobi inside a barrier, informing them that they were to stay out of the fight against the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, to which Kurenai voiced her discontentment. He told his daughter that she is a shinobi who may or may not live a long life, and requested of her to live long enough to give him a grandchild whom the Will of Fire could be passed to.
Like his daughter, he has black hair, and very distinctive ringed, red eyes. He also has a very prominent jawline and wore the standard Konoha shinobi outfit with what appeared to be slightly longer sleeves than usual, shinobi sandals, his forehead protector which he wore like a bandanna, and a flak jacket. He also carried a sword strapped vertically over his right shoulder and a small cylindrical object strapped to his right lower back.

The Aerodactyl would have been traded back to RBY then had the Rock Slide TM used on it then transferred back to GSC.
Oh my... I have been using bulbapedia over the last few days to get info on baby pokemon for the community shiny hunt. I didn't see a warning about it. And then my laptop had some issues and it was saying windows wasn't genuine. I am unsure if it is related or not but i managed to solve the issue (it seems).
By the way i just wanted to ask, is the lightball in gen V or do you have to get a volt tackle pokemon from previous gens? Was just wondering for the community hunt. If i go for Pichu then i'd want volt tackle on it.
Shinies are good.
Thank God..the Bulbapedia warning has gone away
i still remember the time i evolved my lairon into aggron.i was so happy.i used him in the elite four and in the battle tower in diamond.i still use him.ounce you get one you fall in love.aggron can learn good moves like earthquake.he can learn bad ones like headbutt.aggron is great.really.he is awsome.
me:cat use scratch. friend:your cat is not a pokemon. ME: OH YEAH? CAT USE GROWL. CAT:MEOW (SHUT UP! JUST BECAUSE I CAN DO THAT DOES NOT MEAN I WILL DO THAT!) FRIEND:HA HA! ME:FEEL THE WRATH OF MY CHARZAIRD! FRIEND: DUDE THATS A TOY. ME:WAH! CAT AND FRIEND:HAH HAH! IDIOT. LATER: HEY CAT IS THAT A ARCANINE?! CAT:MEOW (I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT IS BUT I DONT LIKE CANINES.) FRIEND:RUN! ME: HAH HAH. TURD FACE...I TOLD HIM POKEMON WERE REAL. BY AGGRON GUY
I'd use my Aggron more if not for the fact that fighting moves are so ridiculously common nowdays (No thanks to the Low Kick and Superpower move tutor) that there's hardly anything it can go up against without a risk of taking serious damage or getting OHKO'd.
I used Aggron in my BW2, and, even though it's an amazing-looking Pokémon, it can get killed pretty easily. It has great defenses stats, but since it's slow, it's usually out-speeded by any other Pokémon, and, as Rarukai said one post before mine, Fighting attacks are pretty common. So I thinl that Aggron could have a bigger potential if it weren't for his typing.

Type: Poison
Pokémon: Venomoth, Gloom, Drapion
If you add me, please PM me so I can add you back
Sturdy helps it land a blow though.
Yes that is a Female Dino Charge Red. It's a FanFic thing
Aggron is one of my favorite Gen III pokemon.
Speaking of rock pokemon, does anyone use Golem nowadays?
PSN: DCCBruceWayneSAS
3DS Friend Code: 5129-0459-2616
I actually use a Heavy Metal Aggron, called Dio w/Heavy Slam and Head Smash... It gets off two killer attacks and dies most of the time.. But if it can get rid of that one or two annoying pokemon by simply overpowering it with Heavyx2Slam, then yeah.. That fulfills its purpose. In the metagame it sucks though...
Talking about metagame, how do you use your Maractus? I'm baffled on how to use something like that.
Nope.. Sad though, I used Golem in Silver back in the days, but ever since then avoided Geodude and the like.. Just because for some reason I simply didn't catch it (and Onix) until they were the last pokemon I needed to catch back in GenIV.. Weird how that goes.
Answer to all the bad things in the world: Give up on trying to make everything better. Hence, accepting it for what it is. YOLO! <- Click the link and daw.. -.-
I've always followed the team set up of Fire, Water, Grass, Flying and two random pokemon. It just feels weird not having them.
And in every game I always have a Crobat in my team. Are there any Pokemon that anyone else uses in every game they're available in?
My First Journey (Yellow):
fire, water, electric, grass, water, and a sixth type (usually psychic, dragon, ground, fighting, or ice). I'm actually planning on using crobat for white 2; i only have 2 badges
Pokemon X AND Y IT IS!
Avid Pokemon Event Collector!!
Add me 4098-5518-0449!
They should make a mummy pokemon, possibly with a second type, prefferably ice, fighting or even grass. Chespin should evolve into a Grass-Ground or Grass-Steel pokemon, Fennekin has got to become a Fire-Dark and Froakie should become Water-Poison type
Umm... not Pokemon has to be a certain type. I think by Fennekin's Confusion or Psychic attack, however, it could end up as Fire/Psychic. But that move hasn't been confirmed as Psychic yet, so Fennekin may be Fire/anything as of now.
A Fire/Psychic however may give Infernape and Blaziken good competition if it has good special attack and speed.
Scientists will eventually stop flailing around with solar power and focus their efforts on harnessing the only truly unlimited source of energy on the planet: stupidity. I predict that in the future, scientists will learn how to convert stupidity into clean fuel.

Here's hoping Vulpix and Ninetales get buffed! whether stat-wise or moveset-wise
If u need prayer, lemme know, k
Just finished the Dark Monotype challenge! I feel good.. :P
Ninetales isn't going to get hurt by Fennekin. Fennekin and evolutions may have slightly better stats at the end, and who knows, STAB Psychic, but that still pales in comparison to having a Drought lead in competitive play, without having to go Ubers with Groudon.. Fennekin will have the Blaze ability, so will not hurt Ninetales in that respect at all.
Answer to all the bad things in the world: Give up on trying to make everything better. Hence, accepting it for what it is. YOLO! <- Click the link and daw.. -.-
We still don't know anything about their Hidden Ability. Who knows, Fennekin might receive Drought as its Hidden Ability
As for buffing old Pokemon, so far they've done it only once (if you count adding the Steel-Type to Magnemite line as a buff, that is), I honestly don't see them doing it again, other than maybe giving some new good moves that are not accesible by Fennekin.
My shinies are not for trade or cloning.
Shinies are not listed in order, for example the last shiny on the banner is not always the latest shiny I've obtained.
Banner 1 made by Light Venusaur, thanks ^_^
I obviously just wanted to say that my favorite pokemon is Sandslash, and he is in all my parties all the time xD
I really hope Fennekin doesnt end up evolving into a Fire/Fighting type...Im tired of that XP
I for one really want to see a Grass/Fire type in this gen. Ive wanted to see one for so long lol.
Also I bet this has been said but I think more Pokemon need to be given moves/abilities for dealing with hazards...
Also Im kind of amazed by how much fanart popped up after only one day after the announcement

Dunno if anyone saw, but Gamestop put up preorders for the games. They're listed with an October 31st release date though (that's a Thursday)
A foreign site (I think it's dutch? I dunno, it came up in my searches haha) has them both listed as being released on October 18th (that's a Friday)
Now, granted that those are probably just placeholder dates, does that mean we can probably expect the game to launch middle of the month? Will ALL regions get it on the exact same day, or will they have like, Japan get it Friday, UK on Saturday, and US on Sunday?

Z is 6 months old and starting to move (inching, rolling around, etc.) She no longer fits in her ********** (she is to long). My DH and I are scared to leave her alone in our bed for fear that she will fall off. DH wants us to put her in her crib because it is safer. What did you do when your little ones were at this stage? How did you keep co-sleeping?
Announcement Module
No announcement yet.
Co-sleeping question
Page Title Module
we put our mattress on the floor and pushed it into a corner so the top and side were against the walls. babies then slept between me and the wall. if we left them alone on the mattress, we put pillows all around the edge of the bed in case they rolled off (which i dont' think ever happened).
Yes, that is what we did too. Some people do not want to change the design of their bedroom but that is really the safest option. You could have a futon on the floor for sleeping when she is in bed alone, but then push it under the bed during the day so your bedroom still looks regular.
We were concerned about this too. We lowered our bed and followed the guidelines in the Co-sleeping Guide. What I found that worked best was a bed rail on one side (mine) and my maternity worm-like pillow on the other. When we went to my sister's house, we would put Q on her bed and create a barrier with pillows and rolled up blankets. He would stop when he rolled into something that didn't budge at first contact.
You'll see what works best for your little one. Just try some things that you are comfortable with and go from there. Believe me it took us a few tries to create the best setup to put our minds at ease.

Specialized Business Solutions — Keystroke Point of Sale
From the September 2009 Review of Point-of-Sale Systems
Keystroke Point of Sale from Specialized Business Solutions offers a solid point-of-sale (POS) product that is well suited for specialty shops and smaller retailers.
The main menu of Keystroke POS contains function keys at the top of the screen
and a main menu grid to the right, which offers access to all installed system
modules, along with a custom option and exit option. Icons to the right of the

Various tender options are listed, as well, and a calculator is provided at the bottom of the sales entry screen. For returning customers, a handy customer lookup option will display detailed customer information on-screen. Otherwise, a default cash customer can be used. Conveniently, both customers and products can be entered on the fly.
Modules included with Keystroke POS are the Sales Manager and the Database Manager,
where inventory, customers, contacts and vendors are entered and tracked. Also

Easily adaptable, Keystroke POS offers a level of scalability not often matched.
Smaller retailers can easily purchase Keystroke's base system and add
additional modules over time.
Keystroke POS offers a customizable toolbar to suit the needs of multiple users.

Other features, such as customizable form capability, multiple pricing levels

this product.
Keystroke POS is a fully integrated system. Custom modules like GL-Link allow
Keystroke to integrate with popular accounting products such as Accpac, CYMA,
Peachtree and QuickBooks. The Import module makes it easy to import data from
other products into inventory, customer, department and vendor databases. The
Integration Toolkit extension features dozens of custom-designed programs that
work in specialty environments, and the QwikTouch extension offers e-commerce
and product shipping integration as well as other features. For payment processing
and gift card processing, Keystroke POS integrates with Mercury Payment Systems.
It also works with the necessary hardware peripherals, including electronic
cash drawers, barcode scanners, pole displays, magnetic credit card readers,
MICR check readers and touch-screen monitors.
Keystroke POS offers excellent tracking capability, particularly customer tracking,
including a complete customer transaction history. Inventory can be tracked
by best and worst sellers. An excellent audit system tracks all data entered
into the system as well as who entered it.
Reporting options are good and available in all of the modules. Clicking on a particular module will pull up the available reporting options for that module. You can also save frequently run reports for quick access and then run them all at the same time.
Keystroke POS is an excellent system highly suited for mid-sized retailers that
desire a high level of flexibility and customization. Pricing starts at $1,295
for a single-user system, with additional workstations available for $495, making
Keystroke POS not only powerful, but affordable, as well.

Athletes' Dreams Take Flight Thanks to Cessna Citation Owners
Orlando, Fla., Oct. 29, 2012 – Cessna Aircraft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, today launched their signature community endeavor — the Citation Special Olympics Airlift (CSOA) — and began its call for Citation owners and operators to help transport more than 1,000 athletes and coaches from across the nation to the 2014 Special Olympics USA Games in New Jersey in the Greater Princeton/Mercer County area. Cessna launched the CSOA campaign at a press conference at the National Business Aviation Association 65th Annual Meeting and Convention.
Cessna President & CEO Scott Ernest with Corey Brunson of Special Olympics Florida. Corey's first flight - ever - was during the 1999 World Summer Games Cessna Citation Airlift to Raleigh, NC. He was be a part of the 2006 Airlift to the USA National Games in Ames, Iowa as well.
"We, along with our many volunteer partners, are extremely proud to kick off our seventh CSOA in support of bringing athletes and coaches to the 2014 Special Olympics USA Games," said Roxanne Bernstein, Cessna senior vice president of marketing. "This is a signature community endeavor for Cessna and unique opportunity that enables everyone from our employees to our customers to get involved and be a part of the Games." With its seventh occasion of organizing the CSOA, which is held every four years, Cessna hopes to recruit at least 175 Citations owners to transport 1,000 athletes to New Jersey on June 14, 2014 and then return them to their home bases on June 21, 2014. "The Citation Special Olympics Airlift is one of the most spectacular traditions of our national Games," said Bob Gobrecht, President and Managing Director of Special Olympics North America. "The generosity of Cessna, their industry partners and the Citation owners not only provides our Programs with a much needed solution to the costs associated with transporting delegations, but it also gives our athletes a once-in-a-lifetime aviation experience."The first CSOA in 1987 involved more than 130 Citations carrying athletes to and from South Bend, Ind. The last airlift, in 2010, included 165 Citations transporting 830 athletes to and from Lincoln, Neb.
Trenton-Mercer Airport will serve as the Host Airport. "This is a wonderful opportunity for the Airport and the County as a whole. Special Olympics is an internationally known organization dedicated to helping people with intellectual disabilities meet their fullest potential on the field of competition and in life. Being part of this effort is a calling of the highest order, and we readily accept the challenge," said County Executive Brian M. Hughes.
Corporations and individual Citation owners and operators in every state are needed to donate their Citation business jet(s), pilots and fuel for the airlift. While the Games are located in the Northeast, more than 3,500 athletes will travel from all over the U.S. to compete; more than 1,000 of those athletes will arrive in Cessna Citation business jets."Organizing and coordinating the airlift for the seventh time is a great honor for Cessna. The team effort behind-the-scenes with all of our many partners — Citation customers, the FAA, Ronson Aviation, Cessna employees and so many others — is unbelievable and makes the airlift a great success," said Rhonda Fullerton, Citation Special Olympics Airlift director. "But, the most important part is bringing the athletes to the Games and taking them back home safely — what a joy it is to see their smiling faces as they fly through the air, some for the first time, in Citation aircraft. "Registration is exclusively online at www.airlift.cessna.com.
The 2014 Special Olympics USA Games will take place in New Jersey, June 14 through June 21. More than 3,500 Special Olympics athletes from all 50 states and the District of Columbia will compete in 17 sports. An estimated 10,000 volunteers as well as 50,000 additional spectators will be in attendance.

Niese looks for some run support facing Cubs
Feldman aims to keep up solid pitching, clinch series win in New York
Jon Niese started off the season by getting a lot of run support, which resulted in wins for the Mets. Recently, however, the run support has not been great, and the Mets have dropped seven of Niese's last nine starts.
The lefty and the Mets will attempt to reverse that trend Saturday against the Cubs.
Niese was 2-0 after his first three starts, and he got a combined 34 runs of support in those two games. However, his record has dipped to 3-5, and the Mets have averaged just 2.6 runs per game in his last nine appearances.
The 26-year-old -- who has a 5.61 career ERA against the Cubs -- has solidified himself as the Mets' No. 2 starter in a rotation that has been full of uncertainty this season. Neise has gone at least six innings in each of his last four outings and has a 1.67 ERA in those starts.
Scott Feldman will get the ball for the Cubs in the second game of the weekend series. The 6-foot-7 right-hander has been solid in his first season with the Cubs and has a 3.22 ERA and one complete game.
One mistake cost Feldman in his last appearance Monday, as he gave up a grand slam to Brandon Phillips in a 6-2 loss to the Reds.
"If it was a ground ball [by Phillips], he would've ended up pitching a good game," Cubs manager Dave Sveum said. "There wasn't a whole lot of hard contact besides Phillips' jam shot to right [in the first] and he hit the grand slam nice. Other than that, he pitched pretty darn good."
Mets: Top pitching prospect set for debut
Zack Wheeler, the Mets' top pitching prospect, is scheduled to make his Major League debut Tuesday in the second game of a doubleheader against the Braves.
Wheeler was ranked as the No. 7 prospect in baseball by MLB.com entering the season and was 4-2 with a 3.93 ERA in 13 starts for Triple-A Las Vegas. The right-hander was selected sixth overall in the 2009 First-Year Player Draft by the Giants and has a career 3.56 ERA in the Minors.
Mets manager Terry Collins on Friday officially announced Wheeler would pitch in the second game of the twin bill, and Collins acknowledged the start would be widely watched, no matter when the 23-year-old made it.
"It doesn't matter if it's at noon or if it's at 1 or if it's at 7," Collins said. "It's a big league game, his first Major League start. There's going to be a lot of heat on him."
Cubs: Sveum happy to not see Harvey
The Cubs limped into Citi Field this weekend losers of five of their last seven games.
But they were able to get a win Friday night, and there's more good news for the Cubs -- they don't have to face Matt Harvey, the Mets' best starter.
Harvey, who has a 2.04 ERA and 102 strikeouts in 97 innings this season, faced the Cubs on May 17 and kept their lineup in check. The right-handed phenom allowed two runs and struck out six in 7 1/3 innings for his fifth win.
Sveum is pleased his team will not have to hit against him this weekend in New York.
"That's sadistic to want to face the best pitchers in the game," Sveum said. "When you're in a series, you're happy with missing those kinds of guys. Going in, their ERAs don't lie."
Worth noting
• Center fielder David DeJesus left Friday night's game after crashing into the wall while attempting to make a catch. DeJesus' right shoulder took most of the impact. He hit a three-run triple earlier in the game.
• With the loss Friday, the Mets scuffled to a 2-8 mark in June.
• Anthony Rizzo and Nate Schierholtz were flip-flopped in the Cubs' order Friday. The move seemed to work for both players as Schierholtz hit a solo homer in the first from the No. 3 spot in the order, and Rizzo went 3-for-4 from the five-hole.

Cardiogenic shock is when the heart has been damaged so much that it is unable to supply enough blood to the organs of the body.
Shock - cardiogenic
Cardiogenic shock occurs when the heart is unable to pump as much blood as the body needs.
The most common causes are serious heart complications. Many of these occur during or after a heart attack (myocardial infarction). These complications include:
An exam will show:
To diagnose cardiogenic shock, a catheter (tube) may be placed in the lung artery (right heart catheterization). Tests may show that blood is backing up into the lungs and the heart is not pumping well.
Tests include:
Other studies may be done to find out why the heart is not working properly.
Lab tests include:
Cardiogenic shock is a medical emergency. You will need to stay in the hospital, most often in the Intensive Care Unit. The goal of treatment is to find and treat the cause of shock to save your life.
You may need medicines to increase blood pressure and improve heart function, including:
These medicines may help in the short-term. They are not often used for a long time.
When a heart rhythm disturbance (dysrhythmia) is serious, urgent treatment may be needed to restore a normal heart rhythm. This may include:
You may also receive:
Other treatments for shock may include:
In the past, the death rate from cardiogenic shock ranged from 80 - 90%. In more recent studies, this rate has decreased to 50 - 75%.
When cardiogenic shock is not treated, the outlook is poor.
Go to the emergency room or call the local emergency number (such as 911) if you have symptoms of cardiogenic shock. Cardiogenic shock is a medical emergency.
You may reduce the risk of developing cardiogenic shock by:

An acclaimed artist and instructor, Bennett Vadnais draws on classical painting techniques to demonstrate color mixing, glazing, texture and detail work. If you're looking to broaden your palette from oils or watercolors, or even have experience in acrylic, you'll gain fresh insight through observing Vadnais' classically inspired process. After an overview of tube vs. fluid colors, brushes and panel preparation, Vadnais launches into the the creation of a landscape, drawing on extensive training and experience as an artist in classical realism. The intimate studio setting allows you to see close-up how Vadnais transfers a drawing, builds a monochromatic underpainting to establish values, then creates both atmospheric effects and rigorously defined details with with glazes and opaque painting methods.
Meet Bennett Vadnais, learn about the materials you'll use and set up your workspace.
I really enjoyed the step-by-step building of the painting and the knowledge. The format taught me a lot and I also liked the ability to stop and return at my convenience. Thanks so much, I learned a lot.

Did you know that you can create an account to record, track and share your climbing ascents? Thousands of climbers are already doing this.
A second cluster of areas around a km downstream
Access issues inherited from Upper Gara Gorge
Gara Gorge is located 16km south-east of Armidale's CBD. To get there, take the Grafton road east out of Armidale then turn right onto Castle Doyle road (just after the 100km speed limit signs) This road goes onto Blue Hole road, turning to dirt straight after the cattle grid, takes you to the Oxley Wild Rivers National Park. Once at the river follow the road right until it comes to a turning circle/parking area at the beginning of the walking track. This is the focus of most of the bouldering in the area. Access to the second car park referred to in the rest of the guide has been blocked to vehicles. To get there walk up onto the ridge and follow the old car track along until it stops. This is the old 'Car Park'. From the old car park there are several ways of getting into the gorge. Either follow the well defined track which leads east along the ridge to drop down to the Roadblock area and the Mad Woman's Breakfast boulder, or veer left (north) from this track at its start and walk straight down towards the Hope Buttress region. To get to the Thick As Thieves / Private Sector area, scramble up past the upstream end of Hope Buttress, then head straight across, past a small gully, then on to the main gully, the main water course. Another way to access the Thick as Thieves and Schoolgirl area is to follow the walking track from the first car park until you are above them, and then drop in via the riverbed (about 500m).
Ethic inherited from Upper Gara Gorge
Basically, the climbers of Armidale are a pretty laid back, free thinking group and as long as you don't go out of your way to put people's noses out of joint you'll be amazed at how helpful they can be. The quickest way to piss people off is by ripping off projects. There are a few devoted locals making an effort and putting up quality new climbs. A lot of time, hard work and even money goes into their endeavours (cracks can be projects too) and there is too much unclimbed rock around to justify destroying someone else's motivation. Any routes marked as such or not in the guide should be left alone. The simple courtesy of asking first may save you from being stripped naked and being staked out for the crows to pick your eyes out. If putting up new routes is your thing then please feel free. The only request is that you avoid placing hangers or conspicuous bolts around the Gara Boulders as we are already viewed as an environmental menace by the NPWS - bolting in National Parks is actually illegal.

Jay Z doesn't give many interviews. In conversation, he often pauses mid-sentence, considers, rewinds, slices and reshapes his answer, choosing a more appropriate word or analogy that draws a finer point before revealing it to the interviewer. What's commonly assumed is a mistrust of the press may just be that unlike his work in the studio or onstage, Jay Z doesn't ultimately control the final result of an interview, and therefore treads more carefully while giving one.
Jay Z has set his sights on buying Aspiro, the Swedish parent company of two subscription streaming services, WiMP and TIDAL.

It was announced by Aspiro early this morning and has already been accepted. Trading of Aspiro stock was up 76 percent on the news this morning, to 0.08 per share.

I first read "Drakkar Noir" and then I wondered why it wasn't Boss Todd in the picture.
I had the same thought.
I always imagined Boss Todd reeks of Marlboro Reds, vehicle exhaust, and week-old laundry.
He wears Sears house brand musk. Available in gallon bottles.
Todd has his own vintage stash of Hai Karate that he found while vulturing storage unit auctions. Best $13,000 he ever spent.
I've always assumed that Boss Todd smelled like a combination of Arby's, Kools, Armor-All and Valtrex.
With just a hint of a pina colada scented car air freshener added to the mix.
That said, you could make a case for Hai Karate.
