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.

Car Brakes: How Do You Know When to Change Them?
By Zach Bowman For those who suffer a daily commute through heavy traffic, your vehicle's braking system can bring thousands of pounds of metal, plastic and empty Starbucks cups to a stop hundreds of times before you get to work. It goes without saying that these pieces wear out, but they do so slowly, meaning you may not notice they need attention until ...

I am a urologic surgeon whose clinical practice focuses on the care of patients with urologic malignancies with emphasis on prostate and testicular cancers.
In my clinical research, I am evaluating the outcome of patients following treatment for prostate cancer or testis cancer, with the goal of improving overall cancer therapy for these patients. My interests currently focus on the quality-of-life issues facing cancer survivors and how different therapies may impact these quality-of-life issues.
Additionally, I have maintained an active role in translational research studying the molecular pathways responsible for prostate cancer initiation and progression. Through this work we hope to identify important pathways in tumorigenesis that may have diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications. Collectively, these studies have resulted in several national meeting presentations and peer-review journal publications.

Dodgers host Nats in battle of division leaders
On Friday, reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw gets the ball for the Dodgers, opposed by fellow southpaw Ross Detwiler, who's off to a hot start at 2-0 with a 0.56 ERA.
Kershaw has posted some pretty solid numbers, too. He's 1-0 with a 1.61 ERA. For opposing hitters, perhaps the scariest part of those numbers is the way manager Don Mattingly reacted to being asked whether Kershaw has reached his peak. "I don't think Kersh is where he wants to be yet," Mattingly said. "He's been pretty good, but he hasn't quite been what you would consider midseason form. ... We're not sitting here complaining, but I don't think he's been quite right yet and where he wants to be." Mattingly has been getting the majority of his offensive production from two hitters -- Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier, who are 1-2 in baseball in RBIs. But Mattingly has stressed the importance of production coming from elsewhere. "For me, it's having that big two -- two guys in the order that you can build around," Mattingly said. "Then you've got to get guys to get on base for them. We've got to be able to generate. We've got two pretty good players. You can build around them." In the series opener, the Dodgers will face Detwiler, who has gone 16 innings in his three starts this year and has allowed just one run. The 26-year-old hasn't thrown more than 81 pitches in a game this season. On Friday against the Marlins, the left-hander got his second win of the season, tossing six innings and giving up only three hits. He also struck out seven and walked only one.
Nationals: Zimmerman to see specialist
Nationals third baseman Ryan Zimmerman attempted to take some swings on Thursday but felt the same pain in his right shoulder that has kept him out of the lineup since Saturday. And with the team headed to Los Angeles for a weekend series with the Dodgers, Zimmerman will visit a physician at the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopedic Clinic and likely receive another cortisone shot in the affected area.
Johnson said the team would prefer to wait to see how a second treatment works before putting Zimmerman on the disabled list.
"I think our doctors feel like [the DL is] probably the best course to ensure that he recovers," Johnson said. "But, we're in the season. If he's going to be better, two days after the treatment or something. We'll just have to wait and see after tomorrow."
Dodgers: Rivera improving
Left fielder Juan Rivera showed improvement Wednesday from a strained left hamstring he suffered running out an infield single on Tuesday.
The Nationals have only taken a season series against the Dodgers one time -- in 2005, their first season in Washington. In total, the Dodgers own a 24-17 edge over the Nationals since the move to the capital. The Dodgers have won four of six series this season, but all four series wins have come against teams that finished below .500 in 2011. Against Milwaukee and Atlanta, two clubs that won 96 and 89 games, respectively, the Dodgers are 2-4.

The Capital Asset Pricing Model: Theory and EvidenceEugene F. FamaUniversity of Chicago - Finance Kenneth R. FrenchDartmouth College - Tuck School of Business; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) August 2003 CRSP Working Paper No. 550; Tuck Business School Working Paper No. 03-26 Abstract: The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) of William Sharpe (1964) and John Lintner (1965) marks the birth of asset pricing theory (resulting in a Nobel Prize for Sharpe in 1990). Before their breakthrough, there were no asset pricing models built from first principles about the nature of tastes and investment opportunities and with clear testable predictions about risk and return. Four decades later, the CAPM is still widely used in applications, such as estimating the cost of equity capital for firms and evaluating the performance of managed portfolios. And it is the centerpiece, indeed often the only asset pricing model taught in MBA level investment courses. The attraction of the CAPM is its powerfully simple logic and intuitively pleasing predictions about how to measure risk and about the relation between expected return and risk. Unfortunately, perhaps because of its simplicity, the empirical record of the model is poor - poor enough to invalidate the way it is used in applications. The model's empirical problems may reflect true failings. (It is, after all, just a model.) But they may also be due to shortcomings of the empirical tests, most notably, poor proxies for the market portfolio of invested wealth, which plays a central role in the model's predictions. We argue, however, that if the market proxy problem invalidates tests of the model, it also invalidates most applications, which typically borrow the market proxies used in empirical tests. For perspective on the CAPM's predictions about risk and expected return, we begin with a brief summary of its logic. We then review the history of empirical work on the model and what it says about shortcomings of the CAPM that pose challenges to be explained by more complicated models.

San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site
The 1,200-acre San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site, which is also a national Historic Landmark, consists of the Battleground, Monument and Battleship Texas. It is located within minutes of downtown Houston and a short distance to the beaches of Galveston Island. Millions of visitors come to this area each year to enjoy the mild coastal climate and cultural and sports activities. Visitors can experience history first-hand through living history at the San Jacinto Battleground and Battleship Texas State Historic Sites.
The famous Battle of San Jacinto that brought Texas its independence was fought on this site. Texian troops under General Sam Houston achieved the independence of Texas by defeating a Mexican Army led by General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna on April 21, 1836.
Things to Do
San Jacinto Battleground
Walk the Battleground and relive the famous battle for Texas Independence. Granite markers throughout the site designate locations of the Texian camps, the Mexican camps, the site of the advance by Texian forces and other strategic parts of the battle. Most markers can also be viewed from your vehicle. Free admission.
- A Battleground Walking Tour Guide (Boy Scouts earn a badge for this activity)
- Compare the San Jacinto Battleground area from 1836 to present.
San Jacinto Monument
The San Jacinto Museum of History is housed in the base of the San Jacinto Monument. The museum contains priceless artifacts and dioramas, as well as a rare collection of 250,000 documents and 40,000 books chronicling more than 400 years of early Texas history.
Take the elevator up to the Monument's Observation floor, 489 feet above the Battleground, with outstanding views of the city and the busy Houston Ship Channel and harbor.
Admission to the Monument ground floor, and the Museum, is always free. Information on pricing for the observation floor and special attractions. The Monument is managed by the San Jacinto Museum of History Association and does not accept Texas State Park Passes.
Battleship Texas
There are many recreational and educational experiences for visitors and organized youth groups, as well as numerous programs for students of all ages, self-guided tours of the Battleship and Battleground, confined space rescue training, and internships.
- Learn more about Battleship Texas visitor programs and tours
- Learn more about Battleship Texas student programs
Marsh Restoration and Boardwalk
From the 1,210-foot long marsh trail and boardwalk you can view the native prairie, tidal marsh and bottomland forest as it appeared at the time of the historic 1836 Battle of San Jacinto. Read or print out the Marsh Interpretive Trail Guide: "Habitats of the Upper Texas Coast."
Alligators live in the park; read our alligator safety tips.
Recreation Area
Picnic tables, grills and water faucets are available throughout the San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site. An enclosed picnic pavilion overlooking Buffalo Bayou is available by advance reservation.

An electronic portfolio, also known as an e-portfolio or digital portfolio, is a collection of electronic evidence assembled and managed by a user, usually on the Web. Such electronic evidence may include inputted text, electronic files, images, multimedia, blog entries, and hyperlinks. E-portfolios are both demonstrations of the user's abilities and platforms for self-expression, and, if they are online, they can be maintained dynamically over time. Some e-portfolio applications permit varying degrees of audience access, so the same portfolio might be used for multiple purposes. An e-portfolio can be seen as a type of learning record that provides actual evidence of achievement. Learning records are closely related to the Learning Plan, an emerging tool that is being used to manage learning by individuals, teams, communities of interest, and organizations. To the extent that a Personal Learning Environment captures and displays a learning record, it also might be understood to be an electronic portfolio. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: E-portfolio)

If we can't plead stupidity, what else is there? How do we live with ourselves? Is it all the stuff we buy that manages to numb our brains and consciences? When I see a headline like this one at Bloomberg today, World Needs Record Saudi Oil Supply as OPEC Convenes, there's just one thought that pops into my head: what the world needs is for us to stop doing this thing we're doing. Even apart from peak oil concerns, it's obvious we're going to run out at some point or another, and it doesn't matter whether that's tomorrow or at some other point in the future, though we do know it's not going to take another 100 years, or even 50. And nothing will ever take the place of oil; once those unique carbons are gone, that's it, we'll have to find a completely different way of running our societies, and if we're not smart enough to prepare for that beforehand, we'll be cats fighting in a sack and use the last scraps to kill off each other. And our legacy won't be the Greek thinkers and Picasso and Dostoyevsky and Walt Whitman and Maria Callas, since there won't be the means for our children anymore to share what makes man great between them. Our main legacy will instead be bloodshed, we will have gone the exact same path that any non-thinking or even primitive organism would have taken, who don't have opera or philosophy or poetry to their name.

Read Review details ►I have used Joop for many years. When the first woman approached me to ask what I was wearing and I would say Joop. I didn't know any of these women and was a bit taken aback by the interest in the fragrance. I have never had that happen before. I am 68 now and I still get asked about the fragrance. Now some women know the scent and state, "That is Joop, isn't it?" Nothing like that to build up your confidence.

The Fall of Aziz
The Generals
Two Days to Retirement (Berezino)
Post-session testing: Riverdispute
The lower turnout allowed us to play an old mission, The Fall of Aziz, to great success, despite angry civilians. GosseChase will see some adjustments but what I experienced in Opfor was very enjoyable. Let's hope to make it an equal experience for Blufor in the next iteration.
As usual leave feedback, comments, love letters to Tigershark below.

The Fall of Aziz
I was the commander in charge of making sure Aziz got to his AN2 safely.
However the spies within our ranks poured some poison into my tea making my vision go from this:
to this:
So I handed over command of my loyal troops to Aziz himself and sat down in a house.
(restarted, checked drivers, restarted, reconnected) And I was still in the house! Woo.
Found my loyal medic Head and we ran all the way to the airfield and into the An2.
Aziz got there eventually and we won.
Thank you Dogface(Aziz) for taking over. Great job everyone!
Pilot of Blackhawk 1, Callsign "Fireball"
Got Alpha Squad(commanded by Joe) in the back and we flew north, engaged a technical, dropped them off, circled, circled...
It seems like the script for the hostages to report their position every 180secs broke so we had no idea where they were.
After some time Wolf admitted that they were headed NW so we flew there and a rokkit/missile/bird-on-fire hit us and Fireball earnt her name once again.
Seems to be some errors/bugs in that one but It'll be awesome when they're fixed.
The Generals
AR In Alpha 1.
Alpha was tasked with running on the north side of the road all the way to the firestation so me and Joe went a bit further up north to the dirtroad and stayed about 100-150m ahead of our FTL to scout in case of flankers.
We got past the firestation and turned south while our FTL and his AT secured the Firestation with A2.
Seems like we hit the rear of OpFor and we shot some dudes while our gloriouz General was drinking tea in the Stationhouse.
Overall lots of death was had and we either killed all OpFor or our General was in there long enough.
Either way, BluFor won! (And I killed Head, woo!)
Two Days to Retirement (Berezino)
After much-much-much confusion we got into town, I ran a total of 30m before Joe screamed "They're behind us" and everything went white. D-E-D, DEAD! :(
Some issues with mapreading but in the end we came up to the artysite.
The LAV tried mating with the arty and everything died. We won :P

The Fall of Aziz
Part of Delta Fireteam (of which I eventually ended up leading). Killed a ton of angry civvies, helped blew up a few technicals, had a friendly fire incident, a well worked mission if a little low on the ei count.
Bravo 2 Fireteam leader. After leaving an AI behind (still not entirely sure where he ended up), got dropped off at Mogilevka which was mostly uneventful apart from Toppometer saying something about a 4x4. Unfortunately the VON quality turned to shit at this point and I couldn't tell a word anyone was saying. Zero enemy sightings until a magic missile hit our Helo and I accidently chucked an injured passenger out the side in my desperate (and in vain) attempt to eject in time.
The Generals
Carnage. After rescuing Toppometer at the crossroads, we were flanked by Blufor and by the time we'd managed to regroup and reorganise the train had left.
Two Days to Retirement (Berezino)
Commander for the first time. Following some CC mishaps I was left behind the hospital away from my intended position. Blufor drove straight past our defences and into several objects and what appeared to be two fireteams ran straight past me as I crouched down in a bush. Typically, the very last cop to walk past happened to turn around and see me hiding - I wasted him but got gunned down as I made my escape. None of the fireteam leaders lasted long but the gang members ended up winning!
River Dispute;
LAV parked in front of a machinegun as I was in commanders seat. Fired directly into my viewing slot. Instant death.

The Fall of Aziz.
Echo Rifleman. After some nice compound clearing from the villa to the city center, with most suspense being felt as those filthy civilians traitors had an habit of pulling their gun from their ass the moment you stopped watching them, i was shot at a corner. Good Toppo got me outta there and fixed me up, but i had to face up to the facts: something was bruised in my spine and my legs weren't responding to my brain influx anymore. Comrade FTL Wolf did call a medic, but hey. Medic, no spinal surgeon.
I could have stopped here and begged for some mercy lead in my face, but decided to give my death some sense and to charge/crawl to the airport. So here i went, (comrade Wolf, on his two legs, died at this point) and I crawled beyond our positions so much that i ended up being a scout, the tip of the spear. Death was spared to me, as i called and engaged a few contacts, some technicals and BTRs. My fireteam somehow managed to catch up with me, in spite of of my superslug speed, and i was wounded (again) by a secondary (was probably more of a tertiary) explosion on a needlessly destroyed BTR. I was fixed up again, and God injected His own Magnificence into the fingers of my saviour, who in turned injected his own fingers into me and bare-handedly fixed-up my spine.
Allah Akhbar. I felt the Touch of Him, and understood Aziz was to live to fight another day, it was a part of the Big Plan. Unfortunately, i was told his uncompetent medic wouldn't suffer the same fate.
We stormed the airfield, waited for ages, executed the doomed medic Kefirz, and after much exploderizing on the runway, we won.
Alpha Squad Medic / FireBall 1 Crew Chief.
Spent the whole mission in Ice's doomed chopper, Joe on the other minigun. We tried and give comrade Tiger "Stevie Wonder" Shark some indications about where he was supposed to go with his small-but-unfortunately-not-RC helicopter, until we heard a fatalistic "Tiger's going down" over the radio. Turns out he finally was about where Joe needed him, only his chopper had turned into a burning wreck. The absence of any life signs forced us to assume nobody could bail out before smacking the planet. By that time we had inserted our squad around Mogilevka, taken some sporadic fire, sprayed much lead on a technical in the woods, and had to bring ourselves to assume that somebody went up the ass of the two hostages and removed the mini-sputnik we had inserted there.
After some communicating, we were told the hostages were moving North-West. Then the russians committed an act of war and we said hello to a SAM. Somehow two survived the crash, but the Bravo BlackHawk / FireBall 2 would swiftly follow us in our demise.
Just so you know, i had a script error very soon into the mission, relative to markers (didn't have time to take notes about what script/what line it was, but i think it was due to a variable not being defined correctly). Looked like a really fun mission when sorted out though.
The Generals
BluFor B2 FTL.
I liked the plan from the very beginning, and, under the command of our beloved SL Frou, we and B1 moved up to the train station in an astute bounding movement. I had my AR (Jrides) posted otside the building, along a wall, so he could SAW anybody that would dare and enter our newly gained territory. Zitron and myself, plus our squad medic Storm, were inside said building. I massacred the naughty Stranglove, as he tried to treacherously murder me through the doorway. At that point Fer had joined us inside. Seeing that my boys were doing a pretty decent job at holding the building, i got out from the other side and tried to clear the south side of the courtyard. Yet i ended up facing some legs behind a corner, and by the second it took me to identify the camo those were wearing, the whole body that was hiding above them had turned around and was facing me. Much point-blank suppressive fire was exchanged, and i finally died. We still won.
Two Days to Retirement (Berezino)
A2 (i think) automatic pistolman.
After carefully choosing our positions, much confusion was had regarding what the hell was happening, and we moved to the hospital. I went there as much carefully, watching every corner to see if i could find some PCP and my guitar, and by that time my whole fireteam was down. I got into the hospital, which was pretty much surrounded by the whole country's Law and Order force (Protect and Serve, my ass) and found a comrade there (i think it was Zitron?). I yelled, urging him to crawl back to me so i could fix him up, but unfortunately he was Served tryin. Then some dirty cop came in, and after some more close range inaccurate suppressive fire exchanges, the thing that was supposed to be my lifeline (along my guitar-slash PCP-stack) ran out of lead. Death. Again.
LAV driver.
Decided to surprise the Takistanis with an invasion gift, and crossed the river on the south side instead of dying on that death-trap dam. That was after murderizing Fer's soulless body. Drove all the way up to the arty site without any contacts.
At that point, being unhappy with comrade gunner Head's firerate, i tried to run over some guy in a static Dskm. Unfortunately one of his bullets went through the hull as well as my skull, and i died, my LAV slowly coming to a halt right in front of the devil's thing. Then the other comrades slaughtered the indigenous and we won.
I missed the first mission, but it was a fun session despite the hostage mission being broken.
Goose Chase
Alpha Squad Leader
ASL Medic: Black Mamba
A1: Cheesse
A2: Sam
One of my fireteams rode in a littlebird, the other in a Knighthawk piloted by Ice. Mamba and myself acted as door gunners. Washington's plan was simple, for us to orbit the likely avenues of escape of the enemy, and to use our choppers to deploy in blocking positions once we had a fix on their location. Alpha was tasked with the western sector, while Bravo took the east.
From the start our plan got a bit confused, as suddenly it was decided that Bravo was going to land near Moglievka (the enemy's starting location) and assault it directly. This new plan being relayed over cc, combined with having to coordinate two choppers, made things very confusing for me and at this point I had a hard time keeping track of things and confused Ice and Tiger (who was flying A1's MH-6) with some contradictory orders. For some reason no one in Tiger's chopper was able to help him navigate so I had to handle that using his map marker, which was very imprecise and difficult to do while talking to Wash, Fer (Bravo's leader) and Ice.
Eventually we landed A2 west of Moglievka to help with the assault, and we spotted a technical near a castle nearby. I ordered Tiger to set his bird down south-west of it, so that A1 could assault from that direction while A2 sprinted to attack it from the North East. Things got very confused, but I think Mamba managed to hit the techie with a burst from his M240.
At this point it emerged that the hostages map markers, which were supposed to give us updates on their location, were not working. Tiger's LB was mysteriously destroyed, and A2 found the technical abandoned. I was confused and more than a little annoyed at this point, and with no chance in hell of tracking down OPFOR infantry on in the forest I said fuck it and just got both fireteams back into the Knighthawk.
Wash ordered us to land to block OPFOR from getting to their camp while Bravo pushed at them, theoretically allowing us to catch them in a pincer move. Unfortunately as we flew North West our chopper was instantly destroyed by a SAM from the Russian base, even though the mission notes told us that they wouldn't attack unless we entered their area. I guess Tiger got hit by the same thing.
Bravo's chopper suffered the same fate, and in the end there were a handful of BLUFOR stranded in the middle of nowhere with no idea where the hostages were, so we just spectated OPFOR's tedious jogging towards the end trigger. Head offered some light relief by escaping, but the mission was called.
The Generals
I was Alpha 1 AAR, and myself and Ice hooked north and got behind OPFOR without being detected. I shot a few in the back, incapping some and killing one, and then chucked grenades. Most of them were dead at this point, and our general was in the station, but Head (who was incapped at the time) dropped me, but Ice avenged me by coming in from the other side and killing him.
Two Days to Retirement (Berezino)
I loaded my trusty boys in blue into their squad cars, making sure we had as many as possible on the road for maximum psychological effect. One fireteam attacked from the north, while two followed me in from the south. I plowed my car into a wall, bailed out, ran for a bit, and got shot. Apparently those damn rockers with their guitar music won the day.RPS Arma 2 community server!

Dawn (Japanese: ヒカリ Hikari) is a beautiful young Pokémon Coordinator who used to travel through the Sinnoh region along with Ash and Brock. Dawn started her journey at the age of 10, honing her skills as a Pokémon Trainer and focusing on becoming a Top Coordinator like her mother, Johanna.
She's notable for her confidence, even when things are not going well. She has learned a lot throughout her travels and battles and can get very emotional when it comes to winning or losing in a contest. Throughout her Sinnoh travels she has developed rivalries with many coordinators such as Zoey, Nando, Jessie, Kenny, and even a fierce one with Ursula, her rival. There's also a disputable romantic interest she has in Ash.
Diamond and Pearl
Dawn made her debut in Following A Maiden's Voyage! when she picked Piplup as her starter Pokémon. In the next episode she met Ash's Pikachu after it had temporarily escaped from Team Rocket. Returning Pikachu to Ash would be how she met him and Brock. Dawn traveled with Ash and Brock through Sinnoh until Ash and Brock left for home after the Sinnoh League.
When she makes a mistake she will often quickly recover and strive to do better. Sometimes she can be a little overconfident though, and it may cause her to make a mistake, like when she had her newly evolved Ambipom use Swift. Despite this, Dawn is carefree, upbeat, cheerful and is always confident in her abilities, even from the beginning of her journey. Dawn's mother, Johanna, gave Dawn her very first ribbon in the first episode and now Dawn keeps it with her as a good-luck charm. Her old friends for some mysterious reason (which Dawn keeps trying to hide) call her "Dee Dee" (Diamond Dandruff).Dawn seems to be more fixated on her appearance then the other two main female characters Misty and May. In an episode, Dawn would refuse to show herself to Ash and Brock until she straightened out her bed hair.
In her first contest, Dawn makes friends with a talented Coordinator called Zoey. Dawn loses her accessory just before the contest and thus the contest. Zoey talks to Dawn about how losing is just a lesson that you should learn from. Dawn promises that she will become just as good as Zoey one day.For a while, Dawn seemed to be on a losing streak, losing in the appeal round of her competitions two times in a row. Her goal proceeded as she participated in her fourth Pokémon Contest in the episode Another One Gabites The Dust! where Dawn faced a rather mean and arrogant girl named Ursula. After insulting her, the two coordinators developed a fierce rivalry. Soon enough, two girls faced each other at the finals where Dawn's Pachirisu barely managed to beat Ursula's Gabite though winning the battle. As she learns about the double appeals in the upcoming contest, Dawn is determined to create a new combination. At first she lacks of ideas, but soon develops an Ice-Fire combination idea consisted out of Mamoswine and Cyndaquil.
It was revealed that the reason for the name was due to her hair glittering (ピカピカ pikapika) after being shocked by the class pets in her kindergarten, Plusle and Minun. With her hair ruined, Kenny spread the word and soon she was teased by the nickname.Since her last win in the Daybreak Town, she has been training hard for the upcoming Grand Festival and has come up with many new combinations such as the Pachirisu/Mamoswine combo and the Buneary/Cyndaquil combo.
In Last Call — First Round! the Grand Festival begins. Except Kenny, all of Dawn's rivals including Dawn make it to the Battle Round.Dawn battled Ursula once again and after 5 minutes of intense battling Dawn defeats Ursula. After Ursula's defeat she admitted that she is weaker than Dawn.Dawn managed to reach the semi-finals of the Grand Festival. There, she found herself against to no other than Jessilina. In the end, Dawn won and advanced to the finals to face Zoey who has beaten Nando in the semi-finals. Zoey and Dawn, they both showcase their skills as Top Coordinator; but as the time runs out, with only few points difference Zoey wins the title of Top Coordinator and the Sinnoh Ribbon Cup so she gets in the second place. She promises to her Pokémon that they will not stop trying until they reach the top.
Upon returning to Twinleaf Town, Johanna informs Dawn that Paris from Hearthome City wants Dawn to model Buneary and the outfits she designed. Although Dawn was originally going to leave with Ash and Brock to go to Kanto, she decides that she will remain in Sinnoh.
Season 15: Black and White
Ash, Iris and Cilan arrives at Cynthia's house waiting to see who's waiting for Ash. Once they come in Dawn sneaks behind Ash and pokes him, making him think someone's behind him. She's then introduced to Iris and Cilan and Ash tells Dawn about his new friend Meloetta. Dawn misunderstands what he's talking about and he decides to show her Ash's new Pokémon and Iris' and Cilan's as well. She introduces herself to them and brings out her own Pokémon, revealing her Cyndaquil evolved into Quilava which impresses Ash. Cilan decides to battle Dawn since Dawn is a coordinator and Cilan is a connoisseur. During the battle Dawn showed everyone her contest moves and Cilan gave his evaluation which confused Dawn and embarrassed Iris. After the battle they decide to relax for a while and they hear Meloetta sing its song. Team Rocket records the song and reports it to Prof. Segar as they make preparations for the future.In BW095, she left for the Johto region.

The dimensions are wrong on the site and the product packaging, and the sink is not flat. We had 2 of the same sinks sent to us thinking the first was a fluke, but they were both the same.
I bought two of these sinks. They are very modern and sophisticated looking. They are visually very sturdy looking and definitely will be the star in any contemporary bathroom.
love the size, depth, look. great price
Shipped well, safely and fast. Looks great in a small bathroom . Would recommend!
I have rehabbed and remodeled many houses. Some on the cheap for a flip and some higher end for homeowner clients. We ordered these because they were porcelain and advertised as being able to be used on a counter, under a counter or wall hung on their own. We couldn't use them as a vessel sink above counter. Laid on a flat surface these sinks wobbled. Same issue with under mounting them. Although the top edge of the sink was the most even surface. We then went to hang them off the wall. No hardware came with it so to use it as a wall hung sink we had to find then customize mounting brackets to it. But once hung one of the sinks seemed to be angled downward while another was skewed to the left. Even though both the back sides of the sinks were pressed FLAT against the wall.
Did not expect to find a sink that was exactly what I was looking for. Narrow sinks are hard to find and this one is great.

text: Homeopathic Materia Medica by FarringtonTHE NOBLE METALS( )In this group we have AURUM METALLICUM, AURUM MURIATICUM, ARGENTUM METALLICUM, ARGENTUM NITRICUM, PLATINUM, and PALLADIUM. There are, also, two or three others of which we know but little.Aurum and Argentum have many symptoms in common, and yet their distinctive characteristics are sufficient to enable you to separate them readily in practice. I will give you the general distinctions between the two drugs before I consider them individually. Gold affects more the circulation of the blood. It also acts on the mind, producing emotional symptoms. Now, by this I mean that if you find symptoms of the nervous system in Aurum, they will be followed by symptoms of the circulation as the primary or most important quality. Argentum has more symptoms of the respiratory organs and intellectual part of the mind. With Aurum, we have tendency to hyperaemia; in Argentum more nervous phenomena; only, Aurum seems to attack the bones. We find very few symptoms of Argentum indicating it in bone affections. The latter, however, causes an arthralgia, or neuralgic pains in the joints. It also attacks the cartilages of joints. For instance, you find Argentum metallioum useful in the arthralgia pains of women who suffer from prolapsus uteri. They can scarcely move their joints, and yet a most careful investigation shows no rheumatic inflammation. Aurum suits in scrofula with redness of the face, thus keeping up the tendency to hyperemia or fulness of the bloodvessels. In these scrofulous cases, you will find that the opacities and ulcers on the cornea are"surrounded by well-filled bloodvessels; here again the hyper-aemic quality of the drug is well brought out. Argentum suits in chlorosis. It affects the oxidizing power of the blood ; it shrivels the body. Aurum affects the distribution of the blood, giving us fulness or hyperaemia, whereas Argentum affects its quality, rendering it incapable of fully carrying oxygen. Hence all parts of the body become dwindled from malnutrition. Silver, and especially its nitrate, coagulates albumen, and this is the reason why the latter has been used locally for so many years as a caustic. When applied with moisture to animal tissues, it immediately coagulates the albuminous portions, and so tends to destroy whatever process is going on. Its action does not extend deeply, however, on account of the formation of this layer of coagulated albumen. Argentum Nitricum more than the metal itself, causes gastro-enteric inflammation, very much like Arsenic. In poisoning cases it also, seems to affect the epithelial layers. For instance, when animals that have been fed on it for quite awhile die, the epithelial layers in all parts of the body seem to be more or less destroyed. That is the reason why you find it of use in cancer and in haemorrhages, in both of which conditions the epithelial structures are diseased.

Facing felonies, woman misses court date
BARRE A Williamstown woman missed her arraignment Thursday on felony charges she stole her brother-in-laws identity and racked up around $1,000 of debt in his name.
Debra A. Hutchings, 57, is facing charges of false pretenses and identity theft both felonies in Washington County criminal court in Barre. She was supposed to be arraigned on the charges Thursday, but Hastings did not show up.
A judicial summons was issued for her to appear at a later date. If Hutchings is convicted, she faces a maximum sentence of 13 years and a $7,000 fine.
According to the Vermont State Police affidavit, Hutchings brother-in-law, James Papineau, went to the state police in December saying Hutchings had opened up four credit cards in his name.
Papineau gave state police documentation showing electronic checks were issued in his name in the accounts totaling $1,028.29, including overdraft fees.
Papineau told state police Hutchings used a fabricated company, Papineau Meat Cutting, and her own address to open one of the accounts. Papineau said he had done some butchering in the past so he could only assume that is where Hutchings must have gotten the name, according to state police.
When questioned by state police about the accounts, Hutchings admitted to using Papineaus name, Social Security number and a date of birth exactly one year off of Papineaus in order to create the accounts. Hutchings told the state police she had fallen on difficult financial times and created the accounts so she could pay her bills. She told state police she planned to pay the bills off but things escalated and she could not pay off the debt.
State police say they received an email from Capital One, one of the banks where she allegedly opened up a fraudulent account, saying Hutchings had contacted them and had taken responsibility for the debt.MORE IN This Just InWAITSFIELD An armed robber held up the Northfield Savings Bank on Tuesday afternoon, the second...

Medicare enrollment streamlined for children
At an October meeting, Plumas County Public Health Director Mimi Hall told the Board of Supervisors her department automatically enrolls children receiving free lunch at schools in MediCal.
Hall said the effort began when a 2008 research report, written in collaboration with the Sierra Institute, supported her department's previous assumptions about a lack of healthcare coverage.
"We have too many people in our communities, both in the state and in our county, who are uninsured, underinsured or sometimes spend half the year insured and not insured," she reported.
"That lack of healthcare coverage isn't just having an impact on the individuals. It's also having an impact on the viability of our local district hospitals."
The department head said Eastern Plumas Health Care in particular was "struggling with cash flow."
The board heard that the hospital's ideal goal was to have 30 days' cash on hand but struggled to have one day's cash on hand.
Hall's department has focused on increasing enrollment in MediCal and Medicare by making it a priority in many different but related efforts without expending extra funds specifically for that purpose.
Part of the effort was something called "express enrollment" that allows certain public entities to share eligibility information.
Hall indicated she "changed the federal school lunch application to actually serve as a MediCal application," because "every child who's eligible for free school lunch is eligible for MediCal."
There are many kinks to be worked out, but in the first six weeks of school, 36 children were enrolled in MediCal through the program.
"When they turn in their school lunch application, within five days they get a benefits card in the mail.
"We contact these families and we assist them in getting permanent coverage. So it's not just those 36 kids because those 36 kids also have parents and family members."
Apart from that program, Hall's department is preparing for the changes that will come with federal health reform.
She said much was still unknown, but there would be considerable healthcare funding for prevention. Funds for rural health and local health departments are slated to arrive in 2011.
Chairwoman Sherrie Thrall commended Hall for the department's work on health coverage. "I know you'll continue to be on the cutting edge of all of these things because you always have been, and I think that's why you've managed to stay funded as well as you have through the last couple years."
