Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine works with City of Erie and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to train new dentists.
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine has announced plans to open a dental school with the help of a $1 million grant from the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The process to develop a school of dental medicine began with a vote by Erie City Council in support of the state grant.
LECOM has identified a critical need to attract more dentists to Erie and Pennsylvania. According to public health records, more than 46,000 Erie County residents go without dental care and the Commonwealth fails at meeting the dental health needs of children. The College has determined that dental medicine plays an important role in the team approach to better health care involving physicians, pharmacists and other health care professionals.
Building a dental school in Erie would create 86 professional, administrative and staff jobs not previously existing in the local economy. It will attract 100 students per class year to the community and involve construction of new, high-tech educational facilities to accommodate these students.
The College will invest between $37 million and $47 million to plan and construct the dental school on the main campus. This will result in new construction jobs over 18 to 24 months.
In 2009, the Pennsylvania Department of Health released the Pulse of Pennsylvania's Dentist and Dental Hygiene Workforce indicated that the development of the infrastructure to educate and train new dentists should be a Commonwealth priority. With the backing of the City of Erie, Erie County and the Commonwealth through the office of Senator Jane Earll, LECOM will open the state's fourth dental school to meet this priority.
There is a significant shortage of dentists in Pennsylvania and Erie County has been designated a Dental Health Professional Shortage Area (DPHSA) with a documented need for more dentists. Only eight states have a higher need for dentists than Pennsylvania according to public health data.
When it comes to addressing the dental health of children, the state received an "F" from the Pew Center on the States study entitled "The Cost of Delay: State Dental Policies Fail One in Five Children."
The demand for new dentists is growing as the current workforce ages. Nearly two out of three Erie County dentists are over 50.
LECOM projects the opening of the school with the first dental students matriculating in 2015. The College also has begun the planning for a dental school to serve the State of Florida from LECOM's Bradenton campus, which will open in 2012. Both locations will employ a community-based clinical plan, which will allow dental students to provide dental care in smaller dental clinics in off-campus neighborhoods where the need for care is the greatest. Unique among dental schools, LECOM will utilize the Problem-based, patient-case based educational curriculum that has been successful preparing osteopathic physicians in Erie, Bradenton, and the newest campus, LECOM at Seton Hill.
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and LECOM School of Pharmacy offer innovative and affordable education in osteopathic medicine and pharmacy. From campuses in Erie, Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Bradenton, Florida, LECOM provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals. Prepare yourself for medicine as your life's profession.

What I Wanted
I love the finished product of this card. I rated Flexible Sizing "average" because at times it was difficult to use certain pictures I wanted in the exact box for them. However, once I looked through my Engagement Photos more thoroughly, it was a matter of time before I found the right sized ones for the right photo boxes. The price and quality of this product I am very happy with.

There are twisted tales and twisted tales, but few are as twisted as poor Sado's, who's just realized that he actually likes being made miserable. Of course, knowing that only makes him more miserable, which in turn... well, you get the idea. Desperate to break the circle, Sado volunteers for a special club where he hopes he can work through his issues only to discover that the other members have equally... complex... issues to deal with.
For example, the hyper-aggressive club president Isurugi not only has a violent fear of cats, but also believes herself to be a god! Then there's Yuno, who's terrified of men; the Nurse, who forces other people to perform cosplay; and Hayama, Sado's best friend and a compulsive cross-dresser, who's also the girl that Sado is infatuated with.
Contains episodes 1-12.

Solar Carve-Out Revisions To Maryland's State RPS Hailed As 'Huge Victory'
Maryland's solar sector recorded a hard-fought win this week, as legislation providing for a temporary acceleration of solar requirements in the state's renewable portfolio standard (RPS) cleared the State Senate by a vote of 37-9.
Secret Ingredient To Making Solar Energy Work: Salt
The solar thermal power plant business is all about big: Square miles of mirrors in the desert that surround 600-foot-tall towers to generate massive megawatts of electricity for multibillion- dollar price tags. Big Solar's ability to compete against fossil fuels, though, could come down to grains of salt.

Dear Parents/Guardians and Students,
Welcome to another exciting year at Cabrillo. We hope you are enjoying your summer. We are eager to see you in September and are preparing to make sure we have a smooth school opening. Our faculty and staff are working hard to assure we provide you with an excellent education in a nurturing, safe environment. If it's your first year at Cabrillo we are positive you will feel at home. We hope and expect every one of you to take advantage of our wonderful curriculum, instruction and programs. We are certain you will thrive at Cabrillo!
We are so proud and humbled to start our 5th year together as Co-Principals of Cabrillo. We love working with an amazing and dedicated faculty of teachers and support staff. Together we have created countless opportunities for every student to become involved and learn beyond the classroom. Our Small Learning Communities continue to flourish and provide our students with relevant, real-world experiences. From working on and launching a rocket with NASA and a local aerospace firm, to being part of our award winning programs such as NJROTC and the Dance Team, to working as interns for companies such as Boeing, to serving as part of an actual jury in Teen Court, our students are immersed and benefit from our unique approach to learning.
We are happy to inform our 9th grade families that this year will be the fourth year of ACCESS (Academy of College and Career Exploration for Student Success), our 9th grade academy. ACCESS is part of Cabrillo's unique approach to transitioning middle school students to high school. The program has been a success and this year will mark the first time every grade level has gone through the ACCESS program. Every year ACCESS gets better as we listen to the voices and feedback of our parents and students who have enjoyed the support of this program. We are confident that you will enjoy what our dedicated ACCESS staff has put in place to support every 9th grader.
By the time we start school in September our new aquatic facility, with its pristine 44 meter competition-size pool is scheduled to be open. This is exciting news as our Cabrillo Students will receive swimming instruction during Physical Education for the first time ever and be equal to the rest of the LBUSD population. The Aquatics Center will also give us the opportunity to field swimming and water polo teams as well as servicing our community. Aside from the Aquatic Center, there is more construction happening at Cabrillo. When school opens in September as you approach the school on Willard, you will see additional open parking spaces that will be available and accessible to visitors during school hours.
Parents, please help us to accomplish our goals by giving us your support. It is extremely important that our students are here on time, attend every day, abide by the dress code, exemplify integrity and respect, and come prepared to learn. A strong parent partnership is vital for the success of our students. Please join the PTSA, Booster Clubs, and become active visitors on our campus. Our Parent Center is open daily and always in need of your support. We can succeed only with your help!

Meet Waffle. This charming Chihuahua spends her days playing with toys, snuggling into warm blankets, and running around with fellow dogs. But that wasn't always the case. Waffle first came to the ASPCA as one of a hundred dogs rescued from an animal hoarder. Her life at that point had been defined by loneliness and neglect, and the traumatic experience left her with an extreme distrust of humans. When we met her, she was anxious, timid, and very, very afraid.
While others may have seen Waffle as a lost cause, we knew that she was a perfect candidate for the ASPCA's Behavioral Rehabilitation Center in Madison, New Jersey. The center, which celebrates its one-year anniversary this week, is the first-ever facility dedicated entirely to behavioral rehabilitation for canine victims of cruelty.
Waffle spent more than two months working closely with the staff at the Behavioral Rehabilitation Center. Through our comprehensive treatment plan, she was able to tackle her fears and transform into the sweet-as-syrup pup she is today. She is now an official "graduate" of the Center, and she's ready to take on the next chapter of her life.
When you donate to the ASPCA, you are supporting projects like the Behavioral Rehabilitation Center. With its combined mission of welfare and research, the Center is at the forefront of progress in its field. But it can't run on good intentions alone. With your support, we can continue to give dogs like Waffle a chance to heal, and, more importantly, a second chance at life.
If you live in or near New Jersey and are interested in adopting Waffle, please contact Second Chance Pet Adoption League at [email protected]. Waffle is looking for a home with another friendly dog!
Waffle, I wish you love and fun and so much happiness. How precious and adorable you are. How brave you are! And thank you to all the fine people who patiently worked with you and brought out the true and perfect Waffle in you.
In agreement Emma. The people at the ASPCA are true heroes...
Waffle, I just wish you were in Houston so I could adopt you! Amazing how love and patience will soothe years of prior wounds. Just for the 'before and after' pics, one can see WHAT A DIFFERENCE these fine folks have made Waffle's life and who knows: she may end up being one's therapy dog!!! I have a magnet on my car that is a paw print and it says, "Who rescued Who?" Animals are such a blessing with their unconditional love and you have restored Waffle to full life! Many kudos!!! Keep up the good work!!
Emma, you said it all! Waffle, you are just so precious. I have no doubt you will find your forever home very soon. Thanks to the staff at the ASPCA for all of the wonderful care you gave Waffle and all you do for all of the other precious animals. Lots of love to Waffle!!!
Waffle has taught all of us a very important lesson.
Well said Emma and ditto!
Much love to Waffle, all the animals and everyone involved everyday!

Snohomish's Powell to play lacrosse at Canisius
Powell is first boys prep lacrosse player from north Sound region to commit to D-1 school
But it's special to be the first at anything.
Powell recently became the first boys prep lacrosse player from the north Puget Sound region to commit to a NCAA Division-1 school, announcing his commitment to Canisius College in late July. The long-stick midfielder/defender is a senior-to-be at Snohomish.
"It was weird," Powell said of being the first lacrosse commit from the north Sound region. "It'll be cool though to be able to tell my kids that I was the first and was able to play D-1 lacrosse."
Powell's coach at Snohomish, Chris Cote, said that Powell is very deserving of a D-1 scholarship. This past season Cote would position Powell, who was recently named to the All-State third team as defender, on the opposing team's best offensive player for the entire game and was confident Powell would neutralize him.
"He's very tenacious on defense," Cote said of what makes Powell a good defender. "He's got excellent stick skills and can use it almost surgically to take the ball away from the other player. He's got good feet and the ability to battle players and good speed to get away. He's a well-rounded player."
Powell's commitment is a sign of the sport's growth in the Northwest. Because most D-1 college programs are clustered on the East Coast -- the furthest D-1 program west of the Mississippi is in Denver -- getting noticed by college coaches can be tough. But recently the sport's growth has opened up new opportunities for lacrosse players like Powell, who was recruited personally by two D-1 coaches: Canisius' Randy Mearns and Eastern College's Kevin Wallace.
"Mearns and Wallace talked about focusing on West Coast now because it's really a hidden gem," Powell added. "Coaches didn't think of us before. It's kind of like 'They don't know lacrosse over there.' But now they recognize that there are good players from here."
It also helps to play on a select team that travels. Powell is on the Seattle Starz select team that plays in tournaments as far east as Pennsylvania. Many of his Starz' teammates, including Hank Bethke (Ohio State), Spencer Noonan (Fairfield) and Colin MacIlvennie (Maryland), are heading east to play college lacrosse.
"It's imperative for lacrosse players, if they can afford it, to play select because it gets them in front of college coaches that might not otherwise see them play," Cote said.
Mearns and Wallace both took notice of Powell, who was invited to a visit both schools in Philadelphia (Eastern) and Buffalo, N.Y. (Canisius) earlier in the summer. Powell said he liked Eastern but fell in love with Canisius. Two weeks later he made his decision. "I like the campus and we went downtown and Buffalo is sweet," Powell said. "You have the Sabres, Bills and, of course, the Bandits, the local pro lacrosse team. There's just a ton to do there."
For Powell, a lacrosse scholarship wasn't always the goal. Like most Northwest kids interested in sports, Powell's first love was football. But as a fifth-grader Powell was introduced to the sport of lacrosse when he tagged along to friend Jarrett Toy's lacrosse practice. He borrowed a stick and played wall ball -- practice tossing the ball against a wall and catching it on the rebound -- and was hooked.
Powell decided to join a team and was designated a goalie on the first day of practice. Mistakenly he ordered the wrong stick -- Powell ordered a 60-inch lacrosse stick that defenders use instead of a goalie's 40-incher. It was a mistake that turned out to be fortuitous.
"I hated playing goalie," Powell said. "They moved me to defender and I was just super comfortable."
As Powell's ability grew, the sport of lacrosse increased in popularity in the Puget Sound region as well. He and Toy gave up football as freshmen and concentrated on lacrosse. The decision paid off for both: Toy, who recently transferred back to Snohomish after playing lacrosse for Eastside Catholic the past three seasons, is headed to Mount St. Mary's to play lacrosse. The trail that Powell and Toy have blazed will likely help future lacrosse players in Snohomish County.
"I didn't think it would be that big," Powell said of the growth of the sport. "We didn't know we'd do this. It's really cool to be a part of something like that."

The flashing amber lights on a school bus are somewhat similar to a yellow traffic light. While it's not required to stop at the sign of the lights, it's probably a good idea to proceed with caution because the blinking indicates children are near — less than 300 feet away.
In Wake County Monday, school bus driver Gloria Smith had on only the amber signals when a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix struck 14-year-old Maria Fernandez Jimenez and ended the teen's life. The bus driver was approaching a stop, where she is required by state law to halt 15 feet away from where children are located.
Jimenez was crossing the street from a residence — ahead of her 16-year-old brother — to board the school bus and ran into the car's path, according to the North Carolina State Highway Patrol. She died at the scene, struck down in front of her brother, six children who were already on the bus and two other students waiting at the stop near J.R. Drive intersection.
"You're in a rural area where there aren't going to be very many crosswalks," said Sgt. Jeff Gordon, N.C. State Highway Patrol public information officer, of the Garner area near the Wake-Johnston County line. "It appears she was trying to cross the road and ran into the 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix."
He said criminal charges for the Pontiac driver Terri Lynne Guttery of Willow Springs aren't probable, but Highway Patrol will consult with the Wake County District Attorney's office after the investigation to finalize the decision. The car's speed was not applicable to the case, but Gordon said hopefully parents will sit down with their children to discuss school bus stop safety.
"Parents need to stress to (their children) to not cross the road before the bus completely stops, the red lights are activated and all traffic has stopped," said Cindy Bruner, local Transportation Information Manual System coordinator. "Just because the lights are red doesn't mean traffic will stop."
Gordon said numerous people fail to stop at stopped school busses, though a stop violation was not the case in the Jimenez scenario.
According to the state's Department of Public Instruction's Transportation Services, nearly 4,000 vehicles passed stopped school busses in 2011. Drivers have a log to keep track of the stoparm violations. Last year, more than 3,200 vehicles passed.
In Lenoir County, where about 6,000 students ride the school bus, all of them are educated on general school bus safety and tips. During the first 10 days of the school years, teachers enforce bus safety — from cautionary behavior to evacuation drills, which they learn on-and-off throughout the school year.
North Carolina's school bus safety website includes tips for drivers, parents in students, including safe ways to walk to the bus stop and board and exit a school bus.
Bruner said it's imperative for drivers, parents and students to be alert when a school bus is sighted, especially on small roads. The rural street where Jimenez was struck did not have any nearby crosswalks.
"In the more rural areas, the (bus) driver has to look at the situation that's going on around them," Bruner said. "We try not to make stops at blind curves."
The Lenoir County Bus Garage contacted the state's Department of Motor Vehicles to have a "bus stop ahead" sign placed on N.C. 258 North and Will Baker Road.
"That is kind of a blind curve," Bruner said. "Traffic doesn't see it until they're on top of the bus. It's a neat sign. It's got a bus on it and it's got red on the sign."
There are several other ways the county promotes school bus safety, such as not routing buses on busy streets such as Carey Road and changing bus stops that are too hazardous.
"(Bruner) will work with us to make sure our children are safe," said Cynthia Faulkner, Banks Elementary School principal. "She is very flexible."
Faulkner said her teachers monitor bus riders after school and bus drivers are aware of their surroundings.
"The driver knows; once you've been driving for a long time you kind of have a feel for it," Bruner said. "You can watch the children and the traffic and try to gauge what's going on most of the time. A good driver will be able to gauge the traffic and the setting of each stop."

North Carolina School Bus Stop Laws
When a school bus stops for passengers at a —
- Two-lane roadway: All traffic from both directions must stop
- Two-lane roadway with center turning lane: All traffic from both directions must stop
- Four-lane roadway without a median separation: All traffic from both directions must stop
- Divided highway of four lanes or more with a median separation: Only traffic following the bus must stop
- Roadway of four lanes or more with a center turning lane: Only traffic following the bus must stop

Nothing like the words "Arctic" and "oil drilling" to get the environmental campaigners excited.All of the protests in the world will add up to very little without a practical, politically feasible alternative way forward. The lack of wide open debate on climate policy options -- and indeed efforts to squelch such debate -- is why most climate activism is simply empty exhortation. Perhaps such exhortation is at least therapeutic for those involved. Simply adding intensity to a political debate is a recipe for all sorts of problems -- including policy gridlock.
Add banks to the mix, and you have the perfect mix for a modern day witch-hunt.
The latest targets are Cairn Energy and the Royal Bank of Scotland. In a joint press release, PLATFORM, Friends of the Earth Scotland and the World Development Movement on Tuesday said they "condemn [the] link between public money and Cairn's Arctic drilling - RBS provided loan to oil company one month before it acquired rig for arctic drilling."
The amount in question is a reported $100m lent by RBS - majority owned by UK taxpayers - last December.
The (first) problem with their point, however, is that RBS is a corporate broker to Cairn -so the $100m is likely to be just a fraction of the total it lent to the oil company last year. There seems to be no evidence to show that this particular $100m and the Arctic drilling are linked.
Secondly, the environmentalists' outrage at taxpayer money financing oil drilling bizarrely stops with the Arctic. Drilling in Rajasthan - where Cairn in fact gets most of its oil - doesn't seem to be a problem. Yet why is it less acceptable to drill near barely-populated frozen landmass than in the middle of India, where actual people may be affected by the drilling operations?
Maybe because polar bears are much cuter than people?

"The lack of wide open debate on climate policy options..."ReplyDelete
What makes a policy option qualify as "climate?"
For there to be a climate policy it seems there must be some demonstrable effect, symbolic gestures aside, on arresting or bending climate trends. I look forward to your explanation.
I see the debate on climate policy options as plenty wide-open, occupying a spectrum from denial of a climate problem and advocacy of business-as-usual, to advocates of delay on any climate policy changes like Lomborg, to advocates of technocractic policy solutions via large infusions of research dollars into decarbonization technology (such as yourself and the Breakthrough Institute), to advocates of adaptation approaches instead of GHG mitigation, to advocates of transition to nukes for decarbonization, and then to a mix of decarbonization options including renewables and nukes, and finally to purist visions of increased efficiency and distributed generation renewable solutions for full decarbonization and a return to 250ppm CO2. How is that range of climate policy debate not wide-open?ReplyDelete
Yes, good question.
Certainly there is diversity out there for those who look, but once you get into the actual political process (e.g., what options are discussed in IPCC, US, UK, Australia, Japan, EU etc. gov't reports, the focus of attention in academia, in thhe media etc. I'd suggest that the scope of options is pretty limited.
That said, it has opened up considerably over 2010, which is a good thing.
But to the extent that activism focuses on the need "to act" and fights against "denial" especially thru battles over science, policy making will suffer.

/loony conspiracy hat on
Viewed from outside the US, the United States is an Empire(some believe evil) and it's Achilles Heel is oil. There are more then a few people who would like to keep it that way.
The movie The China Syndrome depicting a nuclear core meltdown at a US nuclear plant was released on 16 March 1979. On the 28th of March in 1979 a partial nuclear core meltdown occurred at Three Mile Island.
What are the odds that the timing of the two events was 'coincidence'?

Policy making suffers when the sales pitch encapsulated by the descriptor, such as "climate," is not supported by demonstrable science showing investment of resources and effort to achievable results that reflect the policy descriptor.

For better or worse, policies focused on controlling greenhouse gas emisisons are called "climate policies."
I agree that this is not the best condensation of the actual policies that might be considered. But it is what it is.
If you'd like, call then "greenhouse gas policies" as I did in my most recent post.
For professors and scientists to use the misleading language popularized by policy advocates, simply because the lemmings are walking in unison towards the precipice of disbelief, tends to bring out the "jaded stink-eye" by those who discover they have been mislead.ReplyDelete
First, it makes sense to focus on protecting the Arctic. There is a lot of pristine wilderness and an enormous amount of wildlife. Also, the difficult access makes it harder to deal with accidents.ReplyDelete
But symbols are a problem. NGOs of all political stripes find symbols like cute polar bear cubs to be very effective fundraising tools. But it's one thing for people to send a check to help polar bears, much different for a society to make difficult choices.
I think that the US political system gets into ruts very easily. On almost any issue, it is very difficult to change directions once people are on record supporting or opposing a specific method. It's a serious problem.
I read Breakthrough and was not much of a fan of their proposals. Nonetheless, new thinking is needed, and open-mindedness to go with it.
There were a tiny number of 'protesters' and they made a fool of themselves by having a twitter page which was overwhelmed by scorn.ReplyDelete

Windowfarmers R&D-I-Y: An Open Source Community Developing Hydroponic Edible Gardens For Urban Windows.
Windowfarms let you grow food year-round inside while maximizing space. They are vertical food-growing gardens that use a dirt-free technique called hydroponics. You can buy a kit or build your own using low-impact or recycled local materials. Having a windowfarm is more about the activity and experience of windowfarming, these are living systems, not just a pretty thing to look at.
This site is the online community of windowfarmers around the world. Together, we are continually getting better at growing food in the local conditions of our own homes. We are contributing to the "green revolution" as non-experts. We call it R&D-I-Y, or Research & Develop It Yourself. We use this site to collaborate on evolving designs for these vertical hydroponic systems– proposing experiments, testing techniques, and developing a shared knowledge base around the many variables involved in building and maintaining a farm inside a city apartment. Welcome!

I never thought it would happen to me.
I never win anything. But it was my first company picnic and they were passing out raffle tickets for some awesome GiftTree gift baskets, and I didn't want to be rude. So I slid my little orange ticket stub into my wallet and went to get some hot dogs. After a quick bite it was time for the raffle!
The spread on the table near the barbeque grills had two astonishingly elegant gift baskets with gold and white ribbons, and interesting unique keepsake containers stuffed with gourmet items I could barely pronounce. From a short distance I could at least see summer sausage, smoked salmon, all kinds of gourmet chocolate, and a couple of beautiful wine bottles nestled in with some pretzels and crackers in the most modern–looking food boxes I'd ever seen. I admired it all from a distance, sure they would go to a lucky person but not me. Even so, I dug my ticket out of my wallet just to play along – no. 236302
First ticket – a paid day off: "2-3-6-3-0-0" – Jan from Accounting! Congratulations Jan. You deserve it.
2nd ticket – the largest gift basket, packed with the two awesome looking wines and all kinds of goodies: "2-3-6-3-0-1" Jeff from Customer Service! Alright!
Wow, now wait, Hold on, there are over 50 people here, and now they just read off two numbers in a row, AND mine's next. Now I'm interested.
3rd ticket –couples getaway on Mount Hood – "2-3-6-3-0-5" – Hey, Jim from Marketing got it. Awesome. Well it wasn't meant to be I guess. No surprises there, I never win anything.
4th ticket – the second and final gourmet gift basket: "2-3-6-3-0-2"
What?! I did a double take. That's me! I took off my hat, stood up proudly and went forward to retrieve my basket. Everyone was jealous, rightfully so.
A Gourmet Gift Basket Full of Surprises
We eventually left the picnic and took the gift basket to our next stop, a graduation party for my brother in law. And man did everyone love it! They couldn't stop talking about the quality of the items, the impressive showmanship, and the amount of goodies in the basket.
As we unpacked layer after layer my cousin even said she'd never seen a gift basket so impressive. Throughout the party we totally pampered ourselves with herb-encrusted salami, rosemary crackers, gouda cheese, fancy pretzels, the works!
Not everyone can be as lucky as me. But you can give the gift of a premium basket and make someone feel as lucky as I did! Check out our selections now at GiftTree.com

How to force paperwhite bulbs indoors
Narcissus papyraceus, commonly called "paperwhites," are extremely easy to force indoors over the winter. And while you'll see lots of kits for sale - for $20, $30 or even $40 - all you really need is bulbs, a dish, pebbles and some water. You can have a roomful of fragrant flowers in time for the holidays if you start today. Here's how.
1) Prepare the pot
Find a dish, pot or container that's 3 to 4 inches deep. Be sure there are no drainage holes on the bottom. Fill the container one-third to one-half full with pebbles, small stones or marbles.
2) Crowd a few bulbs on top
Set them pointy end up, positioning them on top of the pebbles so that they prop up each other.
3. Add more pebbles around the bulbs, leaving the tips exposed.
3) Fill 'er up
Add just enough water to reach the bottom of the bulbs. Place in a cool, dark spot - like a basement - checking daily to maintain the water level at the base of the bulbs. In about a week or so, when roots begin to develop and the plant sprouts from the top, move the dish to a sunny windowsill.
Paperwhites flopping over? Get them drunk
A common problem with paperwhites is that they grow too tall and leggy, and flop over. But the Flower Bulb Research Program at Cornell University has found a simple solution: alcohol.
Wait until shoots are green and about one to two inches above the top of the bulb, and replace the water with a solution of 4- to 6-percent alcohol. Then continue watering with this solution whenever water is needed. This will result in stockier, stunted plants that are one-third to one-half shorter, but their flowers will be normal sized.
You'll have to do a bit of math to concoct a water-to-alcohol ratio, depending on the type of liquor you're using. For instance, combining one part of a 40 percent distilled spirit (gin, vodka, whiskey, rum or tequila) to 7parts water will yield a 5-percent alcohol solution. Just don't use beer, wine or liquor containing sugar.
Rubbing alcohol (70 percent isopropyl alcohol) works just as well. Dilute one part to 10 or 11 parts water.

I've tried the black and brown but the leather is much stiffer, less pliable and less comfortable, and the distressed look of the deep wood is way cooler. thanks, stephen san francisco.
Thanks for being a fan of our Grant penny moc! The lighter leather in the side views are not available at this time but we offer the Black and the Cordo. We'll pass on your request for the deep wood to our production team.

I love these loafers, been wearing them for +10 years & have them in two colors. They look, fit & wear really well! Was a little confusing buying this last pair because they always used to be called the Sherman, & they've changed the name of the model to the Grant (same shoe).
Product Size Rating:Sized as Expected

Are Americans More Litigious? Some Quantitative Evidence
2012, An American Illness
Eric Bennett Rasmusen, J. Mark Ramseyer
Many observers suggest that American citizens sue more readily than citizens elsewhere, and that American judges shape society more powerfully than judges elsewhere. We examine the problems involved in exploring these questions quantitatively. The data themselves indicate that American law's notoriety does not result from how we handle routine disputes. Instead, it results from the peculiar and dysfunctional way American courts handle particular legal doctrines like class actions.
Rasmusen, Eric Bennett and J. Mark Ramseyer (2012), "Are Americans More Litigious? Some Quantitative Evidence," in Frank Buckley (ed.), An American Illness, forthcoming.

Wow, sometimes, you readers surprise us, I mean, even after 57 years of publishing Reader Finds, you never cease to amaze us with your odd assortment from the world of celebrity naughty. But, perhaps, today takes the cake. So utterly random. So utterly wonderfully raunchy.
Today's Reader Finds includes Zoe Lister Jones in some actually must-watchable moments from Whitney, Kesha flashing some udder, Ashley Tisdale caught in a compromising position, some more even racier angles of Rihanna in concert, Radha Mitchell cinematically topless, and, strangest of all perhaps, Aline Qaddafi, wife of Hannibal, son of on-the-run Moammar, posing sexy.

Detective Inspector Matt Gosling, said: "This was a brutal murder of an innocent young man who had a bright future.
"Arrests have been made and our enquiries are progressing. However, I believe there are people within the local community who may hold vital information and I would urge them to come forward to help us achieve justice for Nana's family.
"We understand the fear of witnesses in contacting police but Trident has extensive experience in witness protection and anonymity and have used these measures successfully on many occasions."

1948 Diamond T GPT
(Grand Prix Truck)
by Steve Walker
Commissioned by privateer Colin Case for the 1948 season of Grand Prix Truck racing.
Long distance Grand Prix Truck racing started up after the Second World War. Races were held on demanding transcontinental roads built to move men and material during the war such as the Alaskan Highway, Burma Road, Trans Siberia and Trans Sahara.
Sportsman entrepreneur Colin Case, (an avid yacht racer who also sponsored formula and sports car racing teams, gravity racers, bicycle racing teams and a hockey club), decided to enter the wildly popular new sport of Grand Prix Trucks.
Colin selected Diamond T to fabricate his GPT racer. The premier truck manufacturer in the world from1911 to 1966, founder C. A. Tilt started out building race cars and established a reputation for innovation and reliability.
Colin commissioned an entirely new design inspired by the forward thinking pre-war Auto Union Grand Prix cars. His mid-engined vehicle features a welded tube space frame, independent suspension, power steering and a straight six engine.
After many seasons of hard campaigning followed by long neglect, this vehicle was in sad shape when abandoned in the Close Enough Engineering parking lot by the last owner, Charles Van Ness.
The ongoing restoration has stretched over years due largely to the shifty character and slack work habits of the occasionally paid personnel of Close Enough Engineering.
Life is tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid.

Mountlake Terrace boys show hoops poise
Hawks battle back to defeat Shorewood 52-50
He got just that, but only because the T-Birds, which lost by 13 to the Hawks in the teams' last meeting Dec. 14, let an 8-point lead slip away.
A finger roll in the lane by Ben Andrews rimmed off before the buzzer sounded and Terrace escaped with a 52-50 victory.
Terrace coach Nalin Sood calmly exhaled as his team, which played in the 3A state tournament a year ago and includes seven seniors, outfought a feisty but less experienced team on the road.
"I didn't think it'd be easy for them and I didn't think it be easy for us," Sood said.
Scheffler could only shake his head.
"It was back and forth to be honest. Both teams were battling," Scheffler said. "We had a chance down the stretch. We didn't get quite the look we wanted.
Shorewood (9-2 league, 14-4 overall) had a chance to wrestle control of the league standings from Terrace (10-1, 16-2). Instead, the Hawks need just one win in their final two regular-season games to clinch a share of the title and a No. 1 seed for the district playoffs.
"That's where you want to be at the end of the game: ball in your hand with a chance to win," Sheffler said. "It hurts, but we're going to bounce back."
The T-birds actually controlled the majority of the game. After trailing 2-0 in the games' opening seconds, they pushed ahead until 7:30 remained in the game when the Hawks took their second lead at 40-39. Washington State University signee Josh Hawkinson was a force in and around the paint, racking up 14 points in the first half and a game-high 22 for the night. When he got the ball down low, he generally did what he wanted.
"He's a great player," Terrace's Marquis Armstead said. "We knew that we had to drop back off some of the non-shooters and help the bigs a little bit (on defense). But we knew if we kept him contained we'd have a good chance of winning this game."
That's exactly what Terrace did in the second half and Hawkinson had just four points in the fourth quarter.
Early on, the T-birds' guards made Terrace pay, but the rest of the teammates seemed to wilt under the pressure of the big-game when Hawkinson was double and triple teamed in the end.
Terrace trailed 29-22 at halftime and the Hawks drew from their experience in big games to keep fighting and stay in it.
"We talked about having poise and having confidence and having focus," Sood said. "If you don't have any one of those things you are probably going to get beat."
Hawkinson built the early lead. When he got the ball down on the block it was a virtual death sentence for the Terrace defense as the senior post converted nearly every chance. The Hawks did a good job of denying him the ball initially, but that left wide-open shooters behind the 3-point arc. Brandon Mar and Zane Hopen made consecutive treys with about 2:25 remaining in the first quarter to give Shorewood a 18-10 edge. Mar was second on the T-Birds with nine points.
Loren Lacasse responded for Terrace, calmly hitting his second 3 of the game, this time with a hand in his face from the 6-foot-9 Hawkinson. Lacasse finished with three 3s and a team-high 12 points. Armstead and Greg Bowman were right behind with 11 and 10 points respectively.
Terrace made their share of bad plays, but they never seemed to come consecutively, which kept Shorewood from running away with its early lead.
"I think we can get better ... We can be a little better, but I don't think we can be better with our fight," Sood said. "We had a great fight, a great competitiveness."
At Shorewood H.S.
Mountlake Terrace 15 7 16 14 -- 52
Shorewood 20 9 10 11 -- 50
Terrace--Zerom 6, Fernandez 6, Tewolde 0, Lotz 7, Armstead 11, Bowmand 10, Sarden 0, Lacasse 12, Munnis 0, Shorewood--Freeman 6, Mar 9, Hopen 3, Gronvold 5, Andrews 5, Rattray 0, Hawkinson 22, Boone 0, 3-Point Goals-- Lacasse 3, Armstead 2, Zerom 2, Bowman, Mar, Hopen, Gronvold, Lotz. Records--Terrace 10-1 league, 16-2 overall, Shorewood 9-2, 14-4

Results vs. Coker (2007-10-02 19:00:00)
October 2, 2007
|Falcons Lose in 5 to Cobras
|Tuesday, 02 October 2007
|Hartsville, SC- In the most heated volleyball game of the year, Coker defeated Pfeiffer in game five 26-24 to give the Cobras a 3-2 victory over the Falcons on Tuesday night in collegiate volleyball. The win improves Coker's record to 10-12 overall, and 7-4 in Conference Carolinas play, while Pfeiffer falls to 12-8 overall, and 6-4 in the conference.
The fifth game of the match was only supposed to be played to 15 points, but neither team seemed to want to do that, as there were 12 lead changes and numerous game points.
For Pfeiffer, Petra Ljubicic had 20 kills and three aces, while Lauren Spiotta had 15 kills and three blocks. Lauren Elmore and Brittany Dickens each had 11 kills, while Morgan Liebert had 52 assists.
Leading the Cobras, with a pair of double-doubles was Megan Haupt with 25 kills and 18 digs and Natalie Schembra with 13 kills and 29 digs, while Margaret Madison had 22 kills and four aces.
Pfeiffer will return to action Saturday when they host St. Andrews Presbyterian at 2:00 pm.

A local teen's leadership and initiative and has earned her one of the Girl Scouts organization's highest honors.
Stephanie Taylor of Hubert was recently awarded with the Girl Scout Silver Award by North Carolina Coastal Pines, the second highest achievement in the organization.

This is the first week in October. This month has a lot to offer. The pastimes changed from water sports, weekends at the beach, and gardening, to football, fall festivals, and getting ready for Christmas.
October is an assault on the senses with color that changes from moment to moment. The lush green leaves give way to subtle shades of orange, yellow, maroon, and brown that cause one to stop and contemplate all of life's gifts.
Later when the leaves begin to fall, people flock to their yards to enjoy the beautiful weather. Driving through most communities, you will see mounds of leaves, and columns of smoke that hang in the air like fog after a rain. The aroma of burning leaves in the air smells like expensive incense.
When I was in the Army in the tropics, the weather rarely changed. The only seasons were ones where it rained, and ones where it rained a lot more.
In October, all the guys there were missing autumn. The sister of a platoon buddy sent him a care package and used autumn leaves as packing material.
We headed to the beach that evening, built a campfire, and burned the leaves a handful at a time.
The smell of those burning leaves sent us all home for a little while.
Another thing I love about October is that the kinds of food we eat change. We have no more fresh tomatoes in our garden, but the greens are coming up.
Jilda stepped down to the apple tree yesterday and picked a half dozen apples the size of softballs.
She then baked a fresh apple pie that tasted as good as any dessert I've ever put into my mouth.
But autumn is also a metaphor for where I am right now in my life. Gone are the spring and summer days of youth. These days I can party hardy as long as they don't go past my bedtime at around 9:30 p.m.
My life goals and priorities have also changed. When I was 30, my philosophy was bigger, better, faster, and newer.
I can't remember how many new cars I bought through the years, and at times, I dreamed of getting a bigger house. I'm not sure why, because we didn't have kids, and more house would have meant more time spent cleaning and maintaining, and paying for something we really didn't need.
I worked hard to earn money for a rainy day. In my 40s, it was hard for me to imagine a time when I didn't have to "clock in".
The autumn of my life seemed as far away as the Milky Way, but then like autumn, the days began to get shorter.
I woke up one morning and my hair was gone, my waste line had expanded, and my knees squeaked when I stood too fast.
And in looking back, all those things that seemed so important back then, seem almost frivolous now.
As the old song goes, "Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers."
It's my intention to enjoy this autumn.
Happy October.
