ASI Competes for New Guinness World Record in Twisting
Benefited Juvenile Diabetes Foundation International
ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — On Monday, nearly 2,000 people went round and round and up and down dancing the twist in a Guinness World Record-breaking attempt that benefited the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation International.
The Advertising Specialty Institute (ASI) hosted the world's biggest dance party at its national trade show at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando. Chart-topper Joey Dee led the crowd in twisting to his signature song, "Peppermint Twist."
Guinness World Records officials will audit the event and determine within two weeks if the record was broken. The Peppermint Twist-off needs to break the previous world record of 1,692 people dancing.
Sydney and Mackenzie Cohn, Philadelphia sisters who were diagnosed with juvenile diabetes at age 7, co-chaired the twist-off. Over the past four years the girls have raised over a million dollars for the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation International. Monday, their efforts raised thousands more.
"We're so happy so many people turned out to dance with us and to learn about the importance of research into our disease," said Sydney Cohn, age 11. "We had so much fun," said Mackenzie Cohn, age 9. "The twist is really cool!"
"I thought I'd break a leg but I got out there and danced the twist – something I haven't done since the '60s," said ASI President and Chief Executive Officer Timothy M. Andrews. "It's a great feeling doing something that's so much fun – and means so much. ASI is delighted to help raise money toward such an important cause. Like the song says, we went bop shoo-op, a bop bop shoo-op, round and round and up and down."
Type 1 diabetes occurs when the body's immune system attacks and destroys certain cells in the pancreas, an organ about the size of a hand that is located behind the lower part of the stomach. People with type 1 diabetes must take insulin in order to stay alive. Type 1 diabetes is generally diagnosed in children, teenagers or young adults. Scientists do not yet know exactly what causes the disease. While progress toward finding a cure has been substantial, there is still no cure for diabetes. As many as 3 million Americans may have the disease and each year, more than 15,000 children and 15,000 adults – approximately 80 people per day – are diagnosed in the U.S.

Top Teachers: Annette Hodges
Donahoe E.S., fifth grade
As a student teacher in inner-city Philadelphia, one of Annette Hodges' first assignments was to work with a Spanish-speaking youngster named Oscar.
"They sent him to me and said, 'If you can just teach him a couple words of English, great.' And I thought, Why only a couple?"
So for the next five months, Hodges worked with Oscar and two other students diligently – setting the same high expectations for them that she had experienced herself in private school as a child. By the end of the school year, Oscar was reading, spelling words correctly and earning A's on tests.
"He wanted it because he was excited that someone believed he could do it," she recalled.
That philosophy has guided Hodges through her 21 years as a teacher, including the past three at Donahoe Elementary in Sandston, where this year she is teaching a boys-only class of 17 fifth-graders.
The gender-specific class was Hodges' idea – something she said grew from her examination of single-sex private academies in which students seemed to excel.
"I thought, Why is is that that's not something that is offered in the public school setting?" she said. "I wanted to encourage [students] and give them expectations."
Hodges is drilling into her students' minds that they will become 'men of honor' by the end of the school year.
Every Monday, the boys "dress for success" by wearing khakis or blue jeans and a light blue Izod shirt that Hodges purchased each of them in September. The point? To teach them what success looks like and help them internalize it.
"Many of them did not know what success was," Hodges said, recalling a recent exercise in which one student said his mother was successful because she went to work every day, even though she hated her job. "They have to see it before they can truly believe it because they know what they're looking at. It's about breaking habits that they've seen or thought were okay and rebuilding things for them."
Her approach is working.
"Through tears, attitude, and smiles of the boys, the joy of accomplishment is the prize," one nominator wrote. "Ms. Hodges has a heart of a lion and patience of an angel. The spirit and success of the boys are the amazing result."
Though her students have scored well in reading and math tests, she is motivating them to achieve 100 percent passage rates in both.
"I just don't want them just simply to pass to say they passed," she said. "I want them to leave being able to transfer the knowledge to the following year. I want them to truly be true learners."
"I go to bed a great deal at night with a heavy heart because I'm thinking, 'How can I reach this one, how can I get that one to understand?' You don't have time to spend time celebrating successes."

More than monkey business
Disneynature's 'Monkey Kingdom' is its strongest yet
"Did you know monkeys could swim?" asks Tina Fey in Monkey Kingdom. While she's asking, a toque macaque (a two foot-long monkey with red-white fur and great hair) breast-strokes under the surface of a pond, yanking out lily pad flowers by her teeth and dragging them ashore to munch later.
Turns out monkeys can swim. And slide down telephone poles. And do the thing from Flashdance where you bring down a cascade of water on your head and shake it off in slow-motion.
All will happen in Monkey Kingdom, the eighth film in nine years from Disneynature, Disney's wildlife documentary outlet. > Read more.

cancer treatment
|Hyperthermia is used for the treatment of a number of diseases, including muscle injuries, inflammations, tendinitis, and osteoarticular disorder. More recently, hyperthermia has been used as an adjuvant in cancer treatment. Only two studies have shown that hyperthermia leads to hypertrophy in in-vitro models of cardiac and skeletal muscle cells. Functional, biochemical and molecular mechanisms of hyperthermia-induced hypertrophy in muscles remain largely undiscovered. We investigated the effects of mild heat shock (HS) on C2C12 skeletal, HL-1 cardiac and AR-75 smooth muscle cells. Mild HS (20 min 43ºC) induced increases in the cell area in all muscle cells tested. C2C12 cells are a well-accepted model of skeletal muscle fibers, and were selected for complementary studies. First, to biochemically confirm an increase in protein synthesis we measured and found an increase of ~6% in total protein content 24 hrs after HS. Second, we examined potential modifications in calcium (Ca) homeostasis regulation by measuring intracellular Ca. We detected a lower resting level of intracellular Ca and smaller and longer caffeine-induced Ca transients in C2C12 muscle cells 24 hrs after HS. Next, to search for molecular mechanisms involved with HS-induced hypertrophy and calcium homeostasis modifications, mRNA from C2C12 muscle cells was analyzed at different time points after HS (0, 1, 2, and 24 hrs). We used an ABI Step One Plus RT2 PCR Array System and a custom-built 96 gene array. We report for the first time that the expression of key heat-shock, hypertrophy/ metabolic, and Ca+2 signaling genes were altered after HS. Hsp70 and Hsp72 genes were highly expressed (211-1829 fold change) after HS. Also, Myh7 (MHC-I), Myh6, Srf, Ppp3r1 and Pck1 were up-regulated by 2-6 fold change compared with control cells.. Furthermore, a reduction in the expression of RyR and Trdn genes was observed (2- 3.6 fold change) with an associated increase in the expression of IP3R genes (2-4 fold change). These results indicate that hyperthermia modulates not only heat-shock related and hypertrophy genes, but also genes involved with metabolism, apoptosis repression, calcium homeostasis and signaling, and cell homeostasis. Our studies offer an initial exploration of the functional, biochemical and molecular mechanisms that may help explain the beneficially adaptive effects of hyperthermia on muscle function. Our studies shall also prove useful for the refinement of a specific device (EM-Stim) to be employed for the treatment of muscle and bone diseases (See poster by Hatem et al). Importantly, our studies have potential translational applications. By learning how to more precisely use hyperthermia to control specific genes that can improve or treat muscle injuries, musculoskeletal, and cardiovascular diseases, the ensuing benefits shall be unmistakable. Our short and long-term goals are: i) optimize our protocols; ii) test HS in animal models; iii) manipulate expression of promising genes of interest in vitro and in in-vivo animal models; iv) initiate clinical studies to fully translate from the bench to the bed-side.

Nsanmini Guesthouse: Nsanmini Guesthouse
The quite new guesthouse Nsanmini where I spent my night in Bolga, really is great value for money with the only 45.000 cedis ($ 4,5) I paid for it. For that amount you get a double room with fan, and you can use the shared - and very neat - showers and toilets.
The guesthouse has a nice, quiet, inner square: a nice place to sit in the evening. The place is quite difficult to find, but if you look for the signboard at the westside of the mainroad towards Navrongo/Paga, and from there you ask for the guesthouse, it will not be any problem to find it.
You can order drinks in the guesthouse, and the good restaurant "Swad Fast Food" is only a few hundred meters away towards the north.
Cheap, quiet, and a very pleasant atmosphere

Sand Gardens Hotel: Sand Gardens has the layout of a resort motel
I just stopped by to pick up a friend who was staying there, but I was favorably impressed by the lay out and rooms. I didn't see any reason why one would need to book ahead to get a room, despite the popularity of the place.
I recall that the prices were posted in the lobby. My understanding is that this hotel is one of the older ones in town, but it appeared to be well maintained. The Sand Gardens Hotel had an outdoor patio restaurant.

Premier Lodge: Great New Hotel in Bolga
The Premier Lodge on Navarango Road in Bolgatanga would be my first choice if available. It was the newest hotel in the Fall of 2010. Rooms are large, well lit and pleasant. Most had private bathrooms. Other amenities include wireless and normal internet, satellite TV, air conditioning, shared TV room, Dining room, and a lovely veranda in an encloded courtyard. Clean and well kept. It offers a warm and inviting stay at great prices which ranged from about $20 to $35 dollars US a day when I was there in November 2010. This includes breakfast each morning, consisting of egg, bread, and tea.
Air conditioning, internet, satellite TV and private bathrooms. All staff speaks English and are most helpful and pleasant!

Grace and Glory Guest House: Grace and Glory Guest House Catholic Social Center
Although it's called a "guest house", the Grace and Glory guesthouse is more like a small conference center with a few rooms and a kitchen. Located out of town, you'll need to hitch a ride with someone who works there. We were served breakfast, but we ate lunch and dinner out. The room was comfortable and had AC. The bathroom was a shared situation, but we were the only guests at the time. There were a couple of self-contained rooms with bathrooms as well.
There's a pleasant garden and the guest house is situated on the outskirts of town in a small neighborhood.

Premiere Lodge: Fabulous Bolgatanga Hotel
Great comfort in Bolgatanga! We ended up here after other reservations we'd made were no longer available, and what a great surprise! Most of this hotel is brand new construction. The rooms are large with ceiling fans and AC, big windows, lots of light, intact screens, TV. I think all rooms have private bathrooms (also large) and some have large jacuzzi-sized tub (but no jets), and consistent hot water. There is wifi available. If it's not working, Martin will show you how to hook up directly to the internet via ethernet wire. He is very welcoming and friendly, like most of the staff. There is a very nice common room with TV, and a place to eat. Breakfast is included. They serve other meals, but it's best to let them know ahead of time if you want to eat an evening meal. They have a very nice conference room, as well.
Clean, new, fairly modern, conference center, wifi. These are unique qualities in this part of Ghana, at least in my experience.

Giant Retailer Reeling From Accounting Scandal
Dutch consumer giant Royal Ahold, the world's third largest retailer after WalMart and France's Carrefour SA, has announced an accounting irregularity in its U.S. division that amounts to at least $500 million. The company plans to restate financial statements for 2000 and 2001 and has indicated it will hold back its 2002 financial statements, originally expected to be released next week.
While a spokesman for Ahold's auditor Deloitte & Touche said, "We stand by the work we did for Ahold," Standard & Poor's took no chances and reduced the company's credit rating to B++, otherwise known as "junk." Company stock plummeted by two thirds of its value Monday to 3.59 euros. At its peak, Ahold stock traded at 38.55 euros in April 1999.
Ahold's two top executives, CEO Cees van der Hoeven and CFO Michiel Meurs, were let go by the company, with Ahold chairman Henny de Ruiter trying to hold on to the reins while replacements for the other executives are sought.
Ahold's U.S. business consists primarily of a distribution service that delivers food to restaurants, schools, and prisons. Ahold also owns the U.S. Stop & Shop chain and Giant supermarkets.
The accounting irregularities stem from local managers booking higher promotional allowances, provided by suppliers to promote their goods, than they actually received in payment. Besides the company CEO and CFO, several U.S. senior executives have been suspended pending further investigation.

ADA – Worthington Christian's strategy was obvious from the first minute of Lima Central Catholic's 64-37 win over the Warriors in a semifinal of the Division III boys basketball regional at Ohio Northern on Thursday night.
But so were its deficiencies. Combine LCC's skills with those flaws and it became a long night very early in the game for Worthington Christian.
LCC (21-4) ran out to a 38-14 halftime lead, helped by forcing 13 first-half turnovers out of a short-handed Worthington Christian backcourt.
Worthington Christian telegraphed its strategy when it held the ball for 57 seconds before shooting on its first offensive possession, then hung onto it for 44 seconds on its second trip down the floor before turning it over.
"We felt like we wanted to do anything we could to shorten the game and go into the second half and maybe have a chance to win. But that didn't happen," Worthington Christian coach Kevin Weakley said.
Once LCC got the lead, Worthington Christian couldn't hold the ball. And it couldn't hold LCC back.
"After watching them a couple times on film, I thought that pressure from our guards was going to be the difference tonight," Lima Central Catholic coach Frank Kill said.
LCC will play Ottawa-Glandorf at 7 p.m. Saturday in the Bowling Green Division III regional championship for a trip to the state tournament. LCC won the regular-season game between the two teams 64-44 on Dec. 15.
Worthington Christian (19-7) played without starting point guard and leading scorer Sam Condon, who left for a church mission trip in the Dominican Republic on Thursday morning. The Warriors were also missing three bench players who went on the trip.
Worthington Christian finished with 19 turnovers and LCC had only three.
Kill said he heard about the Warriors' absentees earlier in the day because the roommate of one of his co-workers at LCC has a brother who is a student at Worthington Christian.
"I heard there was a rumor, but I emphasized to our team that I don't care who is playing, we have to go out and play the way we want to play," he said.
LCC played the way it wanted from the start. Martyce Kimbrough led the Thunderbirds' scoring with 18 points and crossed the 1,000-point mark in his career with a jumper just inside the 3-point line late in the first half.
Xavier Simpson scored 14 points and had seven assists and four steals. Tre Cobbs had 13 points and was big in LCC's first half run out, when he hit three 3-pointers in a span of a minute, 15 seconds and had five steals.
There was no let-up in the second half when LCC extended its lead to as much as 36 points before pulling the starters for all but the beginning of the fourth quarter.
"Early in the year we did a bad job of getting a lead and keeping a lead," Kimbrough said. "Now we're trying to get a lead and step on them."
The 6-foot senior guard's journey to a thousand points began with a mid-range jumper for a two-pointer in the Tip-Off Classic as a sophomore.
"It's a good feeling," Kimbrough said about the milestone. "But I wouldn't have made it without my teammates and my coach."
Worthington Christian was led by Johnny Wordlaw, who scored 13 points.
The Warriors' Seth Weygandt called LCC "one of the fastest teams we've played all year."
"They kind of caught us by surprise. They were really fast. They played really great defense, really pressured us and got into us," he said.
Weakley said, "They've got some college basketball players, especially at the guard position. When you get to this level, you have to produce at that position."

Don't Miss It: Kemp Sculpture Garden
A beautiful spring day calls for exploring beauty outdoors, and the Kemp Center for the Arts' Sculpture Garden is a perfect place for a leisurely stroll.
The Art on the Green sculpture garden on the lawn surrounding the Kemp, 1300 Lamar is an oasis in downtown Wichita Falls.
Art on the Green sculpture garden, established in memory of Minnie Rae Wood, contains eight permanent sculptures and ten sculptures that are "invited" to spend a year on our grounds. Changed out each May the invitational sculpture exhibit provides visitors the opportunity to enjoy sculpture from a wide variety of artists and cultures.
The 2012/2013 exhibit was curated by Patrick Kelly, of Albany, Texas. Kelly is the curator of exhibitions at the Old Jail House Art Museum in Albany. The sculptures range from modernistic commentary to heartfelt bronzes, some of which tower above the grassy landscape while others are tucked among blades of grass.

3 killed, 5 missing in Indonesian floods
More News from Agence France-Presse
JAKARTA – Three people were killed and five missing Wednesday after floods carrying volcanic debris swept through a town in eastern Indonesia, a government official said.
"Following heavy rains during the night, volcanic floods hit early morning at 2:00 am (1700 GMT)," national disaster mitigation agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho said.
Two people were also injured as the floodwaters rampaged, damaging at least 20 homes in Ternate City in North Maluku province and forcing evacuations to government offices and schools, he added.
He said rescue workers were searching for five missing people.
The floods carried volcanic mud from Mount Gamalama, which forms the entire island of Ternate in the Maluku chain. It erupted and spewed a column of ash 2,000 metres (6,500 feet) into the air in December.
Two rivers on the eastern side of the volcano overflowed after heavy rains, carrying volcanic debris down to three residential areas in the town, Nugroho said.
The Indonesian archipelago has dozens of active volcanoes. The country's most active volcano, Mount Merapi in central Java, killed more than 350 people in a series of violent eruptions in 2010.

Whether a part of the beauty industry or not, all women at some point feel the pressure to look good. Even more so as one ages, the desire to keep looking slim and pretty makes many women turn to cosmetic treatments like Botox and fillers or even minor surgery. What if one could be free from the pressures of looking good all the time?
Alesia Raut, model
From day one, I've never pressurised myself and always allowed my wrinkles to show. I've been into fitness since childhood, it's something my mother always stressed about so for me being fit is a part of my lifestyle and I'm blessed with good genes. I do know that modelling as a career has a short span but I've been doing it for the past 14 years and when the time comes I will exit gracefully. I think it's important to flaunt your age with grace. I don't promote cosmetic treatments and have never advised it to anyone either. I think one should never mess with God's gifted body.
Shonali Nagrani, model and TV host
From the time we are born there's peer pressure to look and act a certain way so it's hard to imagine freedom from it. In our industry, appearance is the selling point and to a large extent our occupation demands it. I like looking good, However, I'm someone if I'm not feeling good I won't go out. I don't feel caged or burdened by this pressure to look good. Ideally speaking if there was no concept like vanity it would be great. Not to be judged by our looks would be ideal. Going under the knife for me is a no no. I think as long as you're secure with yourself you don't need to resort to extreme measures.
Shamita Singha, former model and wine connoisseur
I broke away from the shackles of the pressures of the beauty industry a while ago and came into my own. After a point I got so comfortable with my dressing and the way I look that I didn't really care what people thought. I think the older you get, the more confident you are about yourself. I have anyway never been over the top and always preferred simple and classic styles when it came to my clothing or hair and make-up. I like the way I look and think that is important. I'm absolutely against cosmetic treatments and going under the knife as I'm scared of something going wrong. I'd rather grow old gracefully.

So here is my piece for the contest:
Critique is very welcome. Let me know what you think, feel and what doesn't work.
I really wanted to play with composition, religion, symbols and the sub-conscious so I made everything line up to tell a story from this particular angle.
I feel it is at a stage where it is almost finished, just needs some more detail added and a few things rendered out a bit better.

I really like the way you drew it, and the composition is good too. However were it not for your explanation, all I would see is a guy getting his pants pulled down and not minded all too much.
July 15th, 2009 #3
I can definitely see the religious theme behind it. Like any other art, clues in the picture tell you what it is about, you just have to know what you're looking at.

This is a great satirical take on the ideologies of religion and the scepticism of non-believers (not that I am a believer myself) the concept of which can be described as nothing other than brilliant!
I agree though, it just needs a bit more rendering and you're there.
July 15th, 2009 #5
nice job on the concept. you just have to work it out and finish the picture the only thing i could say is that when Jesus was crusified the nails that went through his wrists damage a tendon which hold the thumbs up. when that tendon was damaged his thumbs closed into the palm. I would really love to see the finished work.

i like the image , its good, great idea too.
The guy has a bit goofy look on his face, i think that takes away a lot.

July 15th, 2009 #7
nice painting, but without explanation most os us wouldn't be able to recognise any significance. what's that blak & white pole behind him mean, if it is a pole.
July 15th, 2009 #8
Liffey: Thanks so much for the crit. I've had other people go straight to that conclusion as well. I'm in two minds about changing it because for some reason I think it's funny how some people take it. On the other hand, moving the hands so they are more shirt grabbing may help reinforce the piece. I have some thinking to do.
SOOPERMAN: I agree sooperman, ultimately I'd love it if this piece could communicate exactly what I wanted to say to anyone and everyone. Like on a sub-concious level. Thanks for the comment.
d00dlebug: Cheers. I'm glad some people are getting it.
WOMD: Yeah finishing a piece for me is always the hardest part. Thanks for the info on the crucifixion. I'd like to keep the thumbs up so the hands and pose also communicate an openess or accepting to what he's being told/thinking.
R a n d i s: Thanks man. I found the face a bit hard to put across what I wanted. He's supposed to be relaxed, looking up at the light, with a smirk/happy look on his face. Like he finally gets it and is now at peace.
miycko: It's really good to here your opinion. It's opened my eyes to the fact that everyone take on it is different. The pole behind is a zebra crossing light. I used that to give a reality to the halo behind his head.
Keep the critique coming.
July 16th, 2009 #9
I like the religious funny touch in this even without reading the description ^^
But I am worried about the way he is standing. Is he leaning on the pole ? Or is he falling back and just hold by the people ?
July 30th, 2009 #10
Vaejoun - He's falling back, i wanted him in an awkward sort of pose.
Thanks everyone for the crits. They helped a lot. I have taken a lot of them on board and made decisions that I think work best for the piece.

LONG BEACH – To find Troy Buckley, you walk into the Jason Giambi Baseball Offices and then into the Bobby Crosby room.
Across the way, Abe Alvarez has his own desk. On the walls you find images of Jered Weaver, Troy Tulowitzki and Evan Longoria, which adds up to a lot of victories, home runs and, not incidentally, dollars.
Long Beach State is one of the few places in the nation where the varsity baseball team could lose to the alumni without a sense of disgrace.
Problem was, the Dirtbags started losing to everyone else.
Last year, Long Beach State won 23 and lost 32. It was 11-18 at Blair Field, one of the friendliest places to pitch in college baseball. In the Big West the 49ers were 7-17.
In 2009, Long Beach State was 25-29, coming off a Big West title the spring before. It's the first pair of losing seasons since 1987-88, and Coach Mike Weathers resigned to make room for Buckley.
"Every shortstop we sign thinks he's going to be Troy Tulowitzki," Weathers said. "That's good. We wanted the guys to feel that way.
"But Weaver, Tulowitzki and Longoria weren't highly drafted kids. They put in the work and got to that point when they were here."
"We've had cliques on our team," said Andrew Gagnon, the Friday night starting pitcher this season. "I don't think we've bonded well enough."
Blurry focus isn't the only plague on the Dirtbags' house. The 2008 team had 12 players drafted, including five in the first three rounds. Mater Dei's Danny Espinosa, now with the Washington Nationals, was in that group.
In the interim, UCLA's John Savage has filled up the truck with Orange County players, adding to the competition that was heightened already by UC Irvine's revival.
Sure, there is enough baseball inventory in Southern California to carry the Big West, Pac-10, and WCC, but at some point they have to play each other, and someone must lose. It's in the rules.
Buckley was the pitching coach for Weaver, among many others. He was an outstanding catcher at Santa Clara and has that air of a jovial galoot that you know you shouldn't cross, much like Tesoro High football coach Brian Barnes.
Weathers brought him back from his job as the Pittsburgh Pirates' pitching coordinator, and Buckley recognized his surroundings but not the vibe.
"We just have to make sure these guys that are coming here are doing it for the right reasons," he said. "Not just to get to the big leagues or be a first-round draft choice.

Gagne for Thomas? 'No.'
|06.25.10 at 4:32 pm ET
Amidst rumors that the Flyers are looking to shed payroll in order to take on Tim Thomas' contract, a source close to the situation is saying talk that Simon Gagne could be swapped to the Bruins for the goaltender is bogus.
"This is not an accurate rumor at all," the source said.
Salary-wise, it makes sense, as Gagne will carry a $5.25 million cap hit next season, the final year of his deal, while Thomas has three years remaining at $5 million per season. On the ice, however, such a move could upset Flyers fans. Gagne can be counted on for 30 goals a season and is just 30 years old, while Thomas, 36, lost his starting job last season to Tuukka Rask.
The left-winger made a major impression on the Bruins in the postseason this past postseason, scoring in overtime in Game 4, adding two goals in Game 5, and slipping the series-winning goal past Rask in the third period of Game 7.
Gagne was hampered by groin injuries throughout the season and was limited to 58 games. He scored 17 goals and had 23 assists for 40 points after having 34-40-74 totals a year prior.

PORTLAND -- TriMet riders unhappy with a fare increase that took effect Wednesday held a protest at Portland City Hall.
TriMet faces a $27 million budget hole as fares went up a nickel. Starting September 5th, TriMet will reduce service aboard dozens of bus lines and cut two routes completely.
Also, anyone waiting for a train will have to wait an extra two minutes.
A group called Bus Riders Unite demanded a plan of action to reverse those changes.
I know that this isn't a good time to raise prices for anybody you know people are struggling, said MAX customer Michael Lewis.
Student Trisha Whitman said it's tough for her to get home at night.
TriMet spokesperson Bekki Witt says with so much of TriMet's funding dependent upon payroll taxes, the state's unemployment situation is taking an indirect bite out of the agency's budget.
We are doing the best we can. This has been really tough time for us, she said.
The TriMet board voted last March to make the moves, citing the effects of the recession and declining payroll tax revenues. The service cuts were proposed last January and made final after a series of public hearings.
The cost of an adult, all-zone ticket goes from $2.30 to $2.35 and a monthly pass from $86 to $88. Youth and student fares remain the same.
Honored Citizen tickets go up from 95 cents to $1 for all-zone tickets and $25 to $26 for a monthly pass.
The agency is promoting the bond measure as a means to replace older buses with ones better equipped to serve aging boomers.
If approved, it would assess a tax of 8 cents per $1,000 assessed valuation, or $28 for the owner of a $350,000 house.

Are POC planning sessions a load of nonsense?
TUGUEGARAO CITY—A dear friend, Leo S. Reyes, who died almost two months ago, must be smiling in his grave at the Sanctuary of Peace memorial park here.
A former scribe before he became a regional trial court judge, Leo longed for the day when this bustling city, his hometown and Cagayan's capital, would become a sports hub among provinces.
In death, Leo's wish could be coming true with the staging this week of the Private Schools Athletic Association (Prisaa) regionals at Balzain campus of the University of Cagayan Valley.
Funding for the meet certainly is not courtesy of Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile, Cagayan's most famous son. Manong Johnny's latest mind-blowing move was gifting most of his fellow senators P1.6 million each in additional maintenance and other operating expenses, MOOE for short, last Christmas.
With 13 events on the collegiate level, Prisaa is among a smorgasbord of athletic bowls organized by public and private schools. The idea is to chart the next firmament of sports stars, but the Philippine Sports Commission does not put a premium on Prisaa competitions.
Planners at the PSC and its Siamese twin, the Philippine Olympic Committee, do not think of the Prisaa as a little search engine that could—although Lydia de Vega-Mercado, one of its alums, went on to become arguably the country's best track star. That's because the sports bloc of private schools hold competitions without regard to the overall sports calendar.
"Scouts in search of potential members of the national athletes' pool are not at the Prisaa because we are not informed. We don't even know that its games are on the sports schedule," says POC spokesperson and first vice president Joey Romasanta.
Romasanta said the POC held planning sessions earlier this week to "revisit plans that worked or didn't work."
He said the course was laid out for the POC's "general direction" during the third term and hopefully the last for his boss, former Tarlac solon Jose Cojuangco Jr. And that's to improve "on all fronts" at the Southeast Asian Games, the Asian Games and the Olympics.
Joey says the main target remains ending the search for the country's Holy Grail, its first Olympic gold medal.
The POC's planning meetings are a load of nonsense, says an exasperated former POC official I won't name because the person dreads being branded "an enemy of the state."
Like before, Cojuangco and company would find a little heaven in their meetings, pronouncements, etc., but sports followers would find pure hell in the results, the ex-POC official said.
The plans accomplished nothing in eight years, they'd accomplish zero in the next four, the person said.
"The POC management is great at spinning things in the media. Nothing will change and that's the bottom line."

Isabela's ribbon of highways is among the best in Luzon; it would give the road networks of Tarlac, Pangasinan, La Union, Ilocos Sur, Ilocos Norte and Cagayan a run for their money.
Driving in the province is as smooth as silk, except for long stretches in the towns of Quezon and Santa Maria towns. The highway appears perfect until you drive over unexpected cracks surprisingly missed and not patched by the area's highway district.

COMMENT: Bullying guidance useless if not enforced 8
2:47 PM — We at Schools OUT should be jumping up and down with joy.In our 33 years of existence we have asked no more than that schools be made proper and safe places for the LGBT people that attend them, that they speak the truth of LGBT people's lives and achievements and thereby counter the prejudice and stereotyping that is rife in our society.At the end of last week the Department for Children, Schools and Families published such guidance that, if followed, would accomplish all the above for lesbian, gay and bisexual people at least.

EXCLUSIVE: Boris Johnson courts gay vote 14
9:40 PM — When I meet Boris Johnson in a Westminster cafe for his PinkNews.co.uk interview, it becomes apparent, immediately after he shambles in and launches himself into a chair, that 10am is not optimum Boris time.As he puts it in his diary of the 2001 election campaign, Friends, Voters, Countrymen, it is "a pretty ungodly hour for someone accustomed to journalism."The interview had been in the pipeline well before Labour activists started taking swipes at him over his views.

COMMENT: George Michael can't shrug off HIV 5
1:25 PM — It can be argued that George Michael's recent decision to pull his interview from the upcoming BBC programme Stephen Fry: HIV and Me is justified because it's such a personal issue.However, to discover that he does not believe in HIV tests and finds waiting for results too harrowing is pathetic and cowardly.Someone who is a role model, idol and influencer for so many, hiding from an infection which eventually led to the death of his former partner, Anselmo Feleppa, through an AIDS-related illness, is ignorant.
TURING: Dating the 21st century way 1
1:01 PM — Despite its past and its popularity, cruising sites like Gaydar have outrun their usefulness—and probably do more harm than goodIn many ways, Gaydar is a maverick among the so-called dating websites for men in Britain — gay, straight, bisexual and everything in between — and to a limited extent in a few other European countries, Australia and North America.Indeed, at one time in the not-so-remote past, Gaydar was the third most popular site in Britain after Google and the BBC.
COMMENT: Schools must clamp down on homophobic bullying 8
10:44 AM — Today is a watershed moment for education, as we unveil new guidance that will give schools detailed practical advice on how to deal with homophobic bullying for the first time.This is something teachers have frequently called for and will help schools get to grips with an issue that has blighted too many young people's lives.Every pupil in our schools has the right to be protected from bullying.

When you are a young gay kid, you want to be gay but normal."And he ought to know. Cultural theorist, nightlife journalist andauthor, Paul Burston has chronicled gay popular and club culture formore than 14 years.

TURING: Ads beware 1
10:40 AM — More often than not, the fuss is unnecessary. But, that does not relieve the media companies from their responsibilityMarshall McLuhan, the communications theorist, believed that advertising was the greatest art form of the twentieth century.The description could perhaps be made more accurate if one replaces his superlative adjective with a more plausible alternative —'greatest' with 'most controversial.'

Comment: Peter Tatchell on 9/11
4:21 PM — Six years after 9/11, the American public have still not been provided with a full and truthful account of the single greatest terror attack in US history.What they got was a turkey. The 9/11 Commission was hamstrung by official obstruction. It never managed to ascertain the whole truth of what happened on 11 September 2001.The Chair and Vice Chair of the 9/11 Commission, respectively ThomasKean and Lee Hamilton, assert in their book, Without Precedent, that they were "set up to fail."

TURING: Yours shamefully 4
2:45 PM — It is high time that the Home Office defined its policies for dealing with LGBT asylum seekers. Shame that it still refuses to do so.Iran is no place to be gay. Nor is it the best place for Westerners to campaign for the rights of sexual minorities.Even according to the most conservative of estimates, no fewer than 4000 people may have been executed in Iran for the 'crime of homosexuality' since the Islamic Revolution of 1979.
Feature: Grim realities of life for gays in Iran
12:48 PM — Gay Iranian organisation IRQO has published an in-depth interview with a gay male couple about the challenges of living in the Islamic Republic, both from the religious authorities, their families and other Iranians. Kamran, 24 and Kaveh, 25, have been together about 3 years."The way we are looked at is a source of torment for us. Even though physically we are not any different from them they discriminate against us. This makes our lives extremely difficult. I don't think there is any problem greater than being labeled abnormal in society when you are certain nothing is wrong with you."
Editorial: The Tories and PinkNews.co.uk 72
10:04 AM — The Conservative party is well-known for its ad campaigns.From the iconic 1979 "Labour isn't working" posters, to the "Demon Eyes" of Tony Blair in the 1997 election campaign, through to the "Five Pledges" of Michael "are you thinking what I am thinking" Howard in 2005, never let it be said that the Tory party were short of a strategy. Some, of course, more successful than others.Today marks a new stage in the party's attempts to disseminate its message to the voters.

11:27 AM — Peter Tatchell comments on Nigeria's treatment of gay peopleThe arrest on 5 August of 18 men at a private party in the northernstate of Bauchi is the latest incident in a wave of on-goinghomophobic persecution in Nigeria - much of which is incited byChristian bishops and Muslim imams.Bauchi is a predominantly Muslim region which has adopted Sharia(Islamic) law. Police officers acted on a tip-off from the HisbahIslamic anti-vice squad of the Bauchi Sharia Commission. They seizedthe men, aged 18 to 22, in rooms at the Benko Hotel in Bauchi.

TURING: The business of outing 2
10:16 AM — By all means, out someone if he or she is a hypocrite; just don't call them gay. It is nothing short of a comical irony. Ted Haggard, the ex-televangelist, and once the self-appointed spokesperson for Jesus Christ, has all but disappeared from public attention.Only a few months ago, he was reviled not just by the gay community for his blatant homophobic preaching, but also by intelligent people at large for his inability to handle rational criticisms and arguments.

Interview: Julian Clary's Murder Most Fab
4:35 PM — Comedian Julian Clary's debut as a novelist is a funny, farcical tale of a gay boy who falls in love, suffers a broken heart, moves to London, works as an escort and eventually ends up as TV star with a guilty secret.Murder Most Fab could only have been written by Julian, and his unique sense of humour and absurd but amusing plot make it one of the lightest and most pleasurable reads of the year.Julian, who looks about a decade younger than his 48 years, first shot to fame in the early 1980s as an outrageous stand-up comedian.

TURING: The case for a boycott 4
10:40 AM — Despite reasonable arguments to the contrary, it is better stay away from homophobic countries.The United States, not particularly known for its gay rights record, surprised a good many people in 2005 when its State Department, in its annual report on human rights, included for the first time a list of countries guilty of LGBT abuses.A painful evidence of the Bush administration's hypocrisy, it may well have been.

Comment: Despite the fanfare, freedom still eludes gay Indians 57
12:55 PM — As India celebrates the 60th anniversary of its independence from Britain, Balaji Ravichandran explains why he feels neither free nor independent. The celebrations started well before I arrived in India six weeks ago.From the moment I switched on the television at home the advertisements, programmes and notices, often painfully jingoistic in their self-congratulation, have constantly greeted me with their patriotic screams.

Analysis: 2008 candidates jockey for vital gay votes 3
2:43 PM — There was one jaw-dropping moment in last night's presidential forum on gay issues, and several lean-in-close moments too.While there were no major shifts in previously stated positions, the forum served at least two useful purposes for LGBT voters.It pressed six of the eight Democratic candidates in an unprecedented way on gay-related issues, and gave those candidates an opportunity to make their case for why gay voters should prefer them over the others.
TURING: An awkward trip to the seaside part 2
1:08 PM — The beach, like its counterparts around the planet, had a not-so-remote area infamously devoted to nightly cruising.No, it wasn't exactly gay cruising, should the readers misconstrue.It was a place where the society's rejected had an unenviable existence. They earned money by prostituting their minds and bodies for the amusement of patriarchal men — gay and straight.

How to Become an OBGYN Nurse: Education and Career Roadmap
Find out how to become an OBGYN nurse. Research the education and training requirements, and learn about the experience you need to advance your career in nursing.
Do I Want to Be an OBGYN Nurse?
OBGYN (obstetrics/gynecology) nurses are registered nurses (RNs) who specialize in women's health and reproduction. They perform many of the same job duties as registered nurses in other fields, such as recording patients' medical histories, symptoms, and medications, taking height and weight measurements, preparing and administering medications in office, and taking samples for testing. OBGYN nurses will also perform some tasks unique to their specialty, such as teaching patients about birth control methods, using fetal dopplers to track babies' heartbeats in utero, and, in hospitals, assisting to deliver babies. Some OBGYN nurses further specialize as delivery nurses or as postpartum care nurses to new mothers and babies.
OBGYN nurses may work in private doctors' offices or in larger medical care centers such as hospitals. They usually work full-time schedules although shifts may be irregular - such as 12-hour shifts - and hours may include evenings, nights, and weekends. The job can be highly rewarding as well as stressful. All employees of medical care centers are at risk of exposure to infectious diseases.
Job Requirements
OBGYN nurses must have postsecondary education and pass a licensing exam. Voluntary certification also is available. Additionally, some OBGYN nurses have completed specialized training. The following table contains essential requirements for how to become a registered nurse:
|Common Requirements
|Degree Level
|Varies: diploma, associate's degree, bachelor's degree*
|Degree Field
|Must pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN); voluntary certification is available*
|Earning certification in OBGYN nursing requires a certain amount of experience depending upon the specialty area***
|Key Skills
|Communication skills, emotional stability, attention to detail, organizational skills, critical-thinking skills, patience*
|Computer Skills
|Medical software, Microsoft Excel, accounting and database software**
|Technical Skills
|Measure vital signs, use various medical equipment, such as catheters, fetal monitors, forceps and endoscopes **
|Additional Requirements
|Additional licensing requirements, such as continuing education, vary by state*
Sources: *U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, **O*NET OnLine, ***National Certification Corporation.
Step 1: Obtain a Nursing Degree
While nursing diploma programs are available, most registered nurses have earned an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) and/or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from an accredited nursing school. This preliminary step can take anywhere from 2-4 years depending on the degree program. Nursing programs usually include courses in math, anatomy, physiology and microbiology, as well as supervised clinical training at local hospitals, community agencies, outpatient facilities or other sites. Students might be evaluated in areas such as critical thinking, communication, client advocacy and leadership.
Success Tip:
- Choose a program that offers a practicum in OBGYN nursing. Students can gain some nursing experience through a program's fieldwork opportunity. Obstetrics practicums address topics such as newborn care, crisis management, the reproductive system, illness prevention, patient assessment and pharmacology. Overall, these practical experiences focus on families in their childbearing years.
Step 2: Get Licensed
As part of licensing requirements in all states, RN candidates must pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN). This exam assesses the competencies, knowledge and skills that entry-level nurses need to perform their jobs proficiently. Other licensing requirements vary by state. Candidates can contact the board of nursing in the state where they intend to practice for specific information about licensure.
Step 3: Gain Work Experience
Before qualifying for voluntary certification as an OBGYN nurse, individuals must have experience caring for OBGYN patients or working in OBGYN administration. They also might work in research or provide education. Many OBGYN nursing jobs call for experience in labor and delivery, fetal monitoring and cesarean sections. OBGYN nurses can work in a variety of patient care settings, such as maternal newborn units or inpatient obstetrics.
Step 4: Earn Certification
The National Certification Corporation (NCC) offers certification in several specialties, such as maternal newborn nurse, and subspecialties, like electronic fetal monitoring. Candidates must meet experience and employment requirements and pass an exam. Continuing education or reexamination might be needed to maintain certification.
Step 5: Consider Advanced Education
OBGYN nurses only need a nursing diploma or undergraduate nursing degree to enter the career, but additional education can lead students to positions as a nurse midwife or women's health nurse practitioner. These career options require a Master of Science in Nursing. Students could complete these specialties individually or through a combination degree program.
Graduate programs focus on women's health issues, such as pelvic pain, fertility, breast abnormalities and menopause; clinical leadership; and environmental influences on women's health. Both nurse midwife and women's health nurse practitioner programs require supervised clinical experience.

Working on the 10th some more.
Back to my screw up earlier this morning. Before leaving Salida I wanted to drop by and meet Hayduke and Bonnie who I attempted to find the night before while I was at the Vic. Stopped by the shop little before opening and got me a little Safety Third sticker for the mule and had early lunch across the street.
Here's Duke's tee shop and the previous floating 'S' off to the left:
Loaded up on some fuel and then hooked up with 175 out near the new hosptial and headed somewhat NE out of town and into some beautiful country with wide open spaces looking like something straight out of
Lonesome Dove.
Eventually got onto County Road 53 I think and it dumped me out right south of Hartsel.
At Hartsel I went looking for and asking around for the hotsprings that the Garmn said where near by. Found out that they where full of sludge and no longer used. Damn shame those people don't get out there with a trachoe and fix the place back to its former glory, could be a real money maker.
From there went down to Spinney and 11 mile lake area and then crossed over to Florissant where I ran into a hellasish traffic jam that made me break many laws riding the left lane until I saw a trooper and then jumped back right side and creeped along the edge to the first turn to the right that brought me down to Cripple Creek, not intending but it turned out.
Saw a nice tribute to the forces made from some sand:
And saw a rare motorbike for this country, I think it was a Honda Varadero that had been kitted out extra fuel and bags on the crash bars, looked to be from GB if those are the right plates, anyone one here??
Never did see the riders
Downtown CC on the move here:
After milling through down I head on to Victor where I ended up on the best part of my day today. Hooked up with the Goldbelt Tour through Phantom Canyon here:
and it turned out a nice easy way to spend part of the day. TomTom, one of the Bandidos that I met at the Vic in Salida was the one that actually told me about the road and I happen to fall right onto it right outside of Victor.
Very nice views all over the place, hard to believe the narrow guage RR once plowed through here:
They had some nice p facilities along the route for your needs:
with some more history and cool old photos of what once was:
Some of the neater parts to me where the newer wood topped curved bridge looked straight out of Alaska to me:
Then nearer the end two of these which I really dug:
After this it led me out HW50 near Canon City where I hung a left and head to Peublo because I needed to get my super tracker startraxx updated for my trip. I'd screwed off to much during the day and showed up near 5pm in town and started looking for some free wifi, thought I found it at a McD and then also found you got to pay to play.
At this point I thought it was just best to find a cheap hotel with fast internet and I ended up with the motel 6 in the late afternoon, took a nice quick cool swim and then went in for a siesta.
The mule even got a decent spot to avoid the rain that I didn't know was coming:
I wanted to get the RR kicked off so I got back up around 11:30pm and decided to hoof it down the street for a little late night Taco Bell where I could practice some spanish. Turns out the goofy devils won't let you walk up to the window and order and since the bike was so far away I thought I'd be a tricky little bastard and flag down the next person coming through the line and ask a favor.
Sure enough shortly later a guy happened by on a S. Intruder and I offered to buy his meal to help me and we where good to go, me just feeling smug getting my order handed over- big freaking deal. Really feel sorry for the poor homeless person who scored a few bucks and was hoping for a late night taco because he is just screwed unless he pulls my trick.
The guy's name was Thomas I think and he was partially disabled guy, back trouble, who enjoyed riding in the evenings around Pueblo becasue of the nicer temperatures. He'd laid out on an earlier thunder shower that rolled through and now while we where enjoying our food on the front patio the rain return. We quickly finnished and then he offered to haul me back to the 6 up the road, I think because I let him have the rest of the Jackson. Kinda weird riding on back after always being up front, but it sure beat walking in the light rain.
Got back to 136 in time for the local mexican mafia wannabes to start circling the local hotel parking lots dropping m80s off in selected sites. I stayed up most of the night uploading pictures and starting this report and getting to realtime just now, after screwing my earlier post with a back arrow screw up and now have taken the advice and used wordpad for most of this go around, never seems the same each time you write something up, I guess we'll never know will we.
As my favorite saying goes "It's always something and it never quits"
Today I will be in Pueblo fooling with this Satellite tracker to see if I can get it set up for the rest of the trip. Would like to blast back to T-town in OK to have a cold beer with the boys from OK at the Colony this evening if at all possible. I'm going to go consult mapquest and check the possibilities.
More to come when I get back home for the next go up to the northeast, ferry from Sydney to Argentia is coming fast, I thought I got away from time scheudules when I quit my job...like a say it never quits.
Looking forward to more fun on the road

Music, no matter what genre, be it Jazz, Alternative, Christian rock, R&B, or Hip hop; is an extension of its creator. A firm belief of this is an Alabama Hip Hop artist known by the name of Sleepy. "My name stems from my work ethic. Sometimes I have a tendency to go overboard and sacrifice a few hours if not a few nights of sleeping in order to catch up or stay ahead of the game." Since the age of 15, Sleepy has been writing thought provoking verses, based more on reality than fiction. "I refuse to create…
