The branded identity uses a set of graphic building blocks to identify AHRQ. AHRQ also has developed design elements that assist in identifying an AHRQ product. This section provides an overview of how to apply AHRQ's branded identity and design elements to your products and materials. The AHRQ branded identity will be referred to as the HHS-AHRQ branding. Return to Section Contents Branding and Design Element Treatments The HHS-AHRQ branding must be included on all AHRQ print and electronic products and communication materials produced in-house or by a contractor. The HHS-AHRQ branding is a combination of design elements in this order: Department of Health and Human Services logo (Department level). Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality logo (Agency level). Advancing Excellence in Health Care (AHRQ's tagline). www.ahrq.gov (Agency Web address). Optional: other logo or program identification. Note: The following formats are to be placed at the bottom of the first page of the document.

It is available on the AHRQ Intranet at http://my.ahrq.gov/AHRQSlidetemplate. AHRQ master slide template examples Contractors are not required to use the AHRQ slide template for presentations they make on the Agency's behalf; however, the HHS-AHRQ branding should appear on the title and subsequent slides. The program sub-brand (e.g., Effective Health Care, CAHPS®) may be prominent on the title slide but should not be larger than the HHS-AHRQ branding on subsequent slides. Contractor logos may not be used on the slides, however the contractor company name may be identified on the title slide. For example, "Presented by _____ under contract to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality." PowerPoint slide examples with sub-brand Return to Section Contents Family of Products Products for AHRQ's major programs have a "look and feel" that ties the products together as a family. Unique colors and design elements give them their own branded identity within the AHRQ brand. Design specifications are available for products within AHRQ's major programs. Both in-house and contractor designers must adhere to these specifications when creating products for AHRQ programs. An OCKT managing editor can provide additional information about design specifications. Specifications for Effective Health Care (EHC) Publications (PDF File, 575 KB; Plugin Software Help).

Return to Section Contents Special Uses For AHRQ Logo In most cases, the AHRQ logo must be used with the HHS logo. In some cases, the AHRQ logo may be used by itself. General guidance for using the AHRQ logo by itself follows: Do not provide the AHRQ logo where it may be construed as an endorsement. Contractors and grantees should provide a funding statement without the AHRQ logo on their products, including poster presentations and reports. Example: "This project was funded under contract/grant number XXXX from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The opinions expressed [in this document] are those of the authors and do not reflect the official position of AHRQ or the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services." In most cases, if other Federal agencies have provided their logo, AHRQ permits its logo to be used. Do not provide the logo without first consulting OCKT publishing staff. Link to an AHRQ document and include citation of the source (without the AHRQ logo). Contractors may use the AHRQ logo (without the HHS logo) for handouts when conducting work on behalf of the Agency, e.g., training materials, PowerPoint slides. Other considerations: Grantees may not use the HHS or AHRQ logos on their products. Products prepared under contract to AHRQ must include the HHS-AHRQ branding and may not contain contractor logos. The contractor's role is usually given in the acknowledgments section in the front matter. The HHS-AHRQ branding is only to be used for official, AHRQ-sponsored products.

After we initially picked up that ball or held that hockey stick or bat, we made the choice to practice and play and to improve and grow. As college athletes, my teammates and I chose to work on our individual skills and watch game film to improve and be prepared for upcoming games. We chose to grow every day so that we could continue to help our team be successful. As followers of Christ, God doesn't intend for us for us to receive Him and stop there. He wants us to continue to grow in Him once we receive Christ as our Savior. He wants us to experience the joy that comes from His freedom and for us to be used by Him to make a difference for His Kingdom. However, we can't expect to be able to do either of those things without being, as it says in the verse above, rooted and built up in Him. How do we do that? First, the foundation of our faith is built on His Word. Our faith isn't built on feelings, emotional experiences, or even other people. Our roots of faith and the ensuing growth can take place when we spend time reading His Word and making it important in our everyday lives. Just like we choose to train as athletes, we can choose to train spiritually, being disciplined to read the Bible daily. We also have the choice of how we will act while we are in the building process. According to Scripture, we should approach this process with thankfulness. And why can we be thankful? Because of what Christ did for us on the cross. He endured every pain, every temptation, and even death so that we could not only receive Him and His gift of eternal life, but also that we could be strengthened in Him to help spread His love to others. Today, make the choice to train spiritually just as you would for your sport. Choose to be rooted in Him so that you can take part in building God's team! Now it's your Turn.

Never underestimate the ability of Donald Sterling to do something to embarrass his team.
http://blog.sfgate.com/stew/2014/04/26/ ... irlfriend/
Clippers owners Donald Sterling has allegedly told his multiracial girlfriend he doesn't want her to bring black people, including NBA Hall of Famer Magic Johnson, to his NBA games.
The argument appears to be centered around photos his girlfriend, V. Stiviano, posted to her Instagram feed. Hear the recording, posted by TMZ Sports, above.
In the nearly 10-minute heated exchange, Sterling tells his girlfriend, who identifies herself as a "mix," that he wants her to love black people privately and not post photos of herself with minorities.
He told her that she's "supposed to be a delicate white or a delicate Latina girl" and taking photos with minorities is like "talking to an enemy."
He added, "Why bring it to my games?" around 4:05 and later in the argument specifically says he doesn't want Magic Johnson to come to his games.
In her rebuttal, she said "I'm sorry that you still have people around you that are full of racism and hate in their heart. I'm sorry that you're still racist in your heart."
Appearing on TNT, former NBA superstar Charles Barkley said "he has to be suspended right now" by Commissioner Adam Silver, assuming the tape is genuine.
Former star center Shaquille O'Neal added that "there is a question whether he should continue to be an owner."
V. Stiviano's Instagram feed is currently set to private.
The Clippers, by the way, will play the Warriors in the playoffs on Sunday at 12:30 p.m. in Oakland. The Clippers lead the series 2-1.

Exactly, this is nothing new. He treated Elgin Baylor like crap, and unfortunately got away with it. Everyone that has worked for him has stated how Sterling is as an owner.
I hope he is forced to sell the team. |

The 55-year-old rocker said while he was doing a sound check Friday, his heart rate jumped to 190 beats per minute and stayed that way for more than an hour.
"Paramedics started an IV and gave me a shot to momentarily stop my heart and get it into a normal pattern," he said. "Not knowing if this episode was life-threatening made it even more exhausting."
Stanley said after consulting the paramedics and a cardiologist at Cedar Sinai, he decided not to risk performing that night.
He apologized to KISS fans and thanked his bandmates for going on without him.

Pledge of Allegiance Tour
By Sarah Quelland
Whew! This is one pissed-off lineup. Spawned by rock's mutant hydra Slipknot and the wicked caravan System of a Down, the inaugural outing of this extreme metal festival includes war-painted aggressors Mudvayne (pictured), nihilistic German pyromaniacs Rammstein and raging newcomers No One. Both co-headliners are touring to promote new albums, with Slipknot's highly anticipated Iowa hitting shelves just last Tuesday (Aug. 28) and System's Toxicity slated for a Sept. 4 release. Still, if OzzFest was any indication, Mudvayne could well steal this show. With barking, sputtering vocals cast over complex waves of music that alternate between fury and melody and psychotic theatrics, this uncompromising band devours its crowds.

People are lining up on opposite sides of the fence on this movie, loving or hating it with a unique amount of passion. For me it boils down the voice of the movie's main villain, Royalton (Roger Allam). He plays the role as if he was dubbed from Danger: Diabolik. Any movie that does that gets my vote though I have to admit they had me at monkey. The Wachowski Brothers do nothing half way in this visually insane adaptation of the late 60's Japanese cartoon. If there's any question of how much they love the source, listen to the closing credits track ("Speed Racer"). It is a pitch perfect update of the opening/closing TV credits that intercuts the loop "Go Speed Racer!" next to the original Japanese "Mach a-Go-Go!"
One of the bolder moves of Speed Racer is to tell the story in overlapping timelines, so that a sequence can be cutting between 2 or 3 events or periods, flashing forwards or backwards in a whiplash speed. Likewise, the movie may quickly switch tone from family drama to broad comedy to action and back again. Michael Giacchino guides it along masterfully. He switches styles and references constantly, but it is always sincere.
Of course he uses the famous Nobuyoshi Koshibe theme. Love goes beyond what he does with it. To use an elaborate metaphor, Giacchino takes the theme apart like a custom built car and uses every part, organically rearranging the little pieces as various leitmotifs throughout the movie. The full eight note fanfare becomes the main theme which he then emphasizes lovingly in "Racing's In Our Blood", in a rousing fashion ("Go, Speed, Go") or triumphantly ("Let Us Drink Milk"). Meanwhile the Four-note "Mach-a-Go-Go" is then weaved through the action scenes ("Thunderhead", "Caso Cristo"). In "Milk" especially, he takes the rising three-note pattern of "Here He Comes" and uses it for a rousing brass repetition that goes higher and higher until the entire orchestra takes up the "Go Speed Racer Go" section with a full choir. He'll dance around the fragments in a montage like "32 Hours" playing the three-note in opposition to the four-note which then contrasts with the Royalton theme. Its killer stuff.
And that's just the tip of it. Giacchino mines the entire late 60's for other pastiches. "Vroom And Board" uses classic 60's TV cartoon light strings and xylophone. No one else nowadays seems to know how to use a xylophone like him. Giacchino develops some great smaller themes like the Rex motif ("Tragic Story Of Rex Racer") and the family motif (started in "World's Best Autopia") both which use a steel guitar, driving percussion and rising/falling strings. He also creates a nice Bond-styled bad guy motif for Royalton that starts playful ("Vroom And Board") and then gets mean ("True Heart Of Racing"). Giacchino ties it all together in "Reboot", which takes the previous themes and blends them together into an overwhelming choral climax very reminiscent of Don Davis Matrix work.
The rest of the album comes together under Giacchinos trademark action cues have that blend of Lalo Schifrin action, John William string clusters and John Barry horns/percussion stings. "Casa Cristo" has a galloping Castellan rhythm. "Grand Ol' Prix" and "The Maltese Ice Cave" contain some fantastic string work. Bumper To Bumper, Rail To Rail" sounds like it just came out of Nelson Riddle's Batman work (jazzy beats with punctuating trumpet swells).
No one is arguing the greatness of Giacchino's work, which is easily his best since The Incredibles. I'm leaning towards saying it may be even better, but I'm not that bold yet. Giacchino set a high watermark with that score and everything he's done since has been under its shadow. I'm a big fan of Mission: Impossible III and Ratatouille. Individual cues were top-notch but on a whole, both scores didn't have development. Here you dont feel hes trying to pull off a trick (now Ill do Barry or Schifrin or Mancini). Like the best scores, the parts unify and this may be the best adaptation of a TV theme Ive ever heard.
From the recording sessions that were previewed online previewed last month, it's clear we're not getting everything but this is a very representative one-disk release. We're losing about an hour of material I hope comes out down the line (I especially miss the Casa Cristo finale). Then again, I could say the same about a lot of Giacchinos work.
Not even halfway through 2008, I'll say this is one of the best scores of the year.

Man sentenced for crash that killed brother
SPARTA, Wis. (AP) -- A Sparta man has been sentenced to five years in prison for driving drunk in a car crash that killed his brother.
Jason Schodeberg told a judge in Monroe County Thursday he doesn't remember who was behind the wheel before the crash in July 2009. Thirty-year-old Glenn Schodeberg died when their car rolled over in the town of Jefferson. Authorities say Jason Schodeberg fled from the scene after the crash and later denied that he was involved.
In May 2012, Jason Schodeberg's ex-girlfriend told authorities that he had confessed to driving drunk and crashing the car. The La Crosse Tribune says Schodeberg told Judge Mark Goodman that he's ready to deal with his drug and alcohol addictions that have played a role in his criminal record, including the latest conviction for homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle.

Hide Ya Kids! Amber Rose Says Lil Willow Smith Reminds Her Of Herself As A Youngster
- By Bossip Staff Categories: Celebrity Seeds, News, PreciousnessWe're thinking that Willow will probably have no problem sticking to her individuality, especially since her parents have clearly worked hard to instill that in her. But uhhhh we hope that's really the trait Amber is identifying with because there are probably a few things Willow's parents don't want to remind them of young Amber.
It's probably too late to prevent the holding hands with girls part, but hopefully she can avoid the perils of the pole still…

What about all of those titles then: Patriarch, Metropolitan, Archbishop, Bishop? What does all of this mean?

What about all of those titles then: Patriarch, Metropolitan, Archbishop, Bishop? What does all of this mean?
Speaking about the clergy, what are the clerical offices in the Orthodox Church and what is their significance?
What are all the requirements that lead to the priesthood?
Dear Father,
I am a twelve year old an I wish to be a priest. I was wondering if perhaps you could tell me a procedure which would help me do so.
I hope you will be able to answer my question, Father.
We are Greek Orthodox. My son has recently shown interest in the priesthood. When I mentioned that he would first have to learn the Greek language, he became frustrated...
For years I have felt drawn to the priesthood. However, I have one major obstacle to being a priest. I must confess that I am an atheist, or at the very least a very skeptical agnostic. Does this condition absolutely bar me...
I am interested in the priesthood, and I am new to the Orthodox faith, coming over from Roman Catholic, where I was a member of a religious order. Can you tell me what I need to do?
To ascertain whether the Orthodox Church is where I belong, I have read a couple of books by Bishop Timothy Ware. I was thrilled at what I read. However, something that I read about recently has thrown me.
I read comments...
What is the orthodox stance on ordination of women to the priesthood and episcopacy, and how do you back it up?
What is the official position of the Orthodox Church on clergy ordained through a "mail-order" or "on-line" ministry? I am considering becoming a member of the clergy. While there are no Orthodox churches in the immediate...
I am neither Roman Catholic nor Orthodox but am learning what I can about both communions. I'm reading Thomas Merton's A Seven Storey Mountain, which leads to the question below.
In the Roman tradition it seems that those...
I am a recent convert to Orthodoxy and am very interested in pursuing a vocation to the priesthood. I am in my mid-40s, a college professor, and have a Ph.D. I have heard very generally about the OCA's "Late Vocations"...
I am a student who is convinced of the vanity and folly of this world and who would like to achieve inner peace the only way it is possible, through Jesus Christ.
Is monastic life the solution?
You mentioned monks. Does the Orthodox Church have monks and nuns?
If a person had been married, and then is divorced, can he be ordained? Let's say that the divorce was not his fault, and now he has remarried, can he pursue a priestly vocation?
Does Canon Law prohibit his ordination, or...
The priest who performed the wedding that Iattended recently has been elevated to the dignity of Archpriest in the Antiochian Church. He is married. Is Archpriest or Propresbyter the highest he can go as a married man?

There are so many ah-ma-zing possibilities out there, and one of my most favorite parts of summer is reinventing my classroom to make it as coordinated as possible :)
I have had the same blue idea for several years and just recently started running with it.
My main colors are:
navy |
teal |
They are Cool Stripes and Cool Swirls. I love them- the stripes trim the tops of my white boards and the swirls surround my bulletin boards.
Some of my favorite themed items:
My "No Name" board |
Supply Organizer for all of my little odds & ends |
Storage shelf underneath my teaching white board |
Class Rules |
Class Supplies |
Class Pencils |
The fabric for my curtains was a clearance fabric at Walmart ($3/yd? Yes, please!) and fits well with my theme and our class mascot- the dolphin. Yes, we are near the mountains of Colorado and our mascot is the dolphin ;)

When people used to tell me, "Get the sleep you can now because you'll never sleep again," I laughed. I now know the kind of fatigue I battle on a daily basis is nothing like the days after late nights at work or cramming for tests in college. I'd also hear about "mom brain" and how formerly brilliant women have been rendered useless by the theory that pregnancy feeds off brain cells. I thought…

Maternal smoking during pregnancy is associated with fetal growth retardation. We examined whether a common genetic variant at chromosome 15q25 (rs1051730), which is known to be involved in nicotine metabolism, modifies the associations of maternal smoking with fetal growth characteristics.
This study was performed in 3,563 European mothers participating in a population-based prospective cohort study from early pregnancy onwards. Smoking was assessed by postal questionnaires and fetal growth characteristics were measured by ultrasound examinations in each trimester of pregnancy.
Among mothers who did not smoke during pregnancy (82.9%), maternal rs1051730 was not consistently associated with any fetal growth characteristic. Among mothers who continued smoking during pregnancy (17.1%), maternal rs1051730 was not associated with head circumference. The T-allele of maternal rs1051730 was associated with a smaller second and third trimester fetal femur length [differences -0.23 mm (95%CI -0.45 to -0.00) and -0.41 mm (95%CI -0.69 to -0.13), respectively] and a smaller birth length [difference -2.61 mm (95%CI -5.32 to 0.11)]. The maternal T-allele of rs1051730 was associated with a lower third trimester estimated fetal weight [difference -33 grams (95%CI -55 to -10)], and tended to be associated with birth weight [difference -38 grams (95%CI -89 to 13)]. This association persisted after adjustment for smoking quantity.
Our results suggest that maternal rs1051730 genotype modifies the associations of maternal smoking during pregnancy with impaired fetal growth in length and weight. These results should be considered as hypothesis generating and indicate the need for large-scale genome wide association studies focusing on gene – fetal smoke exposure interactions.

Eat Stop Eat: Review Examining Brad Pilon's Intermittent Fasting Program Released
Eat Stop Eat reviews have been flooding the Internet and HealthAvenger.com reveals the truth about this diet program that dispels every misconception associated with fasting and starvation modes, and provides a simple and flexible route to weight loss.
Houston, TX (PRWEB) July 05, 2013
Brad Pilon's Eat Stop Eat that combines the cleansing benefits of fasting with the muscle building benefits of resistance training to create a flexible, efficient program that leads to rapid weight loss and muscle gain has the caught attention of HealthAvenger.com's Stan Stevenson, prompting an investigative review.
"Eat Stop Eat is based on the concept of intermittent fasting and focuses on the effects of short term fasting on the metabolism of the body. The idea behind the diet is to restore the calorific balance of the body by creating a balance between its "fed" and "fasted" states," reports Stevenson. "In the book, Brad provides practical advice and simple instructions that allow the diet to be tailored according to individual needs. The rules of the diet and the logic behind them are explained and the recommended resistance training workouts are also outlined in detail."
Eat Stop Eat is written in simple language. Barely 175 pages long, it is easy to read it in a single sitting. The science behind each and every concept is explained along with research evidence, yet the book is free from tedious scientific jargon. Brad Pilon has also tackled several questions related to the diet and weight loss at the end of the book. This diet offers several benefits such as accelerated and sustainable weight loss, maintenance and increase of muscle mass, decreased blood sugar and insulin levels, better insulin sensitivity, increased growth hormone and glucagon levels, better lipolysis and enhanced fat burning/oxidation, etc.
"The main aim of Eat Stop Eat is to help people lose weight without any drastic changes to their eating habits or lifestyle. It also reduces physical and mental stress, decreases chronic inflammation, and cleanses and detoxifies the body," says Stevenson. "The diet recommends fasting for a period of around 16-24 hours once or twice a week in order to force the body to use up the stored fat reserves. The duration and frequency of fasting can be tailored according to individual needs and lifestyles."
"Research has shown that fasting is the best way to restore the calorific balance of the body and this is the foundation of Eat Stop Eat. This diet has rapidly gained immense popularity as a trustworthy diet resource. Brad also recommends certain resistance training routines to help the body build muscle mass. Since a muscle burns more calories than fat, this leads to further weight loss and toning. The main advantages of this program are that it is simple, easy to follow, remarkably free from side effects and requires no expensive pills or equipment. In fact, it is less of a diet and more of a way of living."

An initial search of downtown Alfred did not lead police to their suspect in this afternoon's Community Bank robbery, but police say residents need not worry about their safety.
Alfred police have released pictures taken from the bank's surveillance cameras behind the teller. They are looking for a 6-foot-tall man, slim-to-medium build, wearing a dark brown or green Carhartt-type hooded jacket, grey sweatpants and white sneakers with a blue athletic logo on them. The man fled on foot.
Anyone with any information is asked to call the Alfred police at (607)?587-8877 or Amity-based state police at (585)?268-9030.
Police Chief Timothy O'Grady said there's no evidence that it was an armed robbery.
"There wasn't a weapon displayed. The suspect has not been located, but at this point, I?don't believe there's any grave danger to the community at large,"?said O'Grady. "We don't have any evidence at this point that the person was armed."
The suspect walked into the bank, at 39 N. Main St., at 1:09 p.m. today, police said.
"A note was given to the tellers. An undetermined amount of cash was taken,"?O'Grady said. "We're unsure if it's a black male or white male, Hispanic. They were totally covered."
"Where they went after they left the bank, we don't know at this point,"?O'Grady said. "We're working a few different leads right now."
O'Grady said Alfred State and Alfred University were made aware of the robbery.
"They have been informed and I?think they have sent out their alerts as per their protocol and they're taking precautions for their employees and any students who may be on campus," he said.
Alfred police worked with university police initially and have also been working with New?York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation. The county Sheriff's Office responded as well, O'Grady said.

Plant the idea of purchasing this vid in your clientele\'s mind
Set almost entirely around a picturesque flower nursery, we were almost taken aback to see the extra effort and production values which went into the making of this Euro-feature (which, as an added bonus, is well-dubbed for a change).
Ostensibly the story of a female gardener whose angelic singing voice takes her down the road to pop fame and fortune (not to mention numerous encounters with horny farmhands and record producers), the main thrust of the story grinds to a halt for a different kind of thrusting. Suzy and her friends are so cute that even as the flimsy story begins to dissipate, the sexual action is just rewing up.
Threesomes, lesbian clenches and facials make a fine mulch for Suzy's carnal deflowering in the d.p. finale. It makes us wonder all the more why your average American pornstress looks like surgically enhanced white trash, while the European gals look more like the ideal, all-natural girl next door.
This is one good-looking, hot product which overcomes its banal storyline.

Brokaw: Obama Must Answer for Debt
Submitted By Todd on October 15th at 4:33am
Tom Brokaw says the president will have to answer to the American people for the exploding debt, referencing what Obama said in debate four years ago.
I looked at that debate we that talked about a moment ago, it was playing last night on C-SPAN... President Obama was saying, "Look, we've got a deficit of half a trillion dollars. I'm going to get that under control." Well, this week, that deficit is $1.1 trillion and it happened on his watch. He is going to have to answer for that.

Sure! It was just a one-on-one roleplay that lasted a couple of nights. The setting was 1920's Chicago, during the Great Depression, and the heyday of bootlegging and gangsters! It's ending was rather dark, with a lot of difficult choices that left me thinking for quite a bit after we'd finished.
