RODALE NEWS, EMMAUS, PA—Fish sticks aren't the only aquatic food choice that's questionable for your health. It's true that some varieties of fish contain an especially beneficial type of fat, called omega-3 fatty acids, which help to lower blood pressure, heart rate, and other risk factors associated with heart disease. But fish may also contain mercury and other contaminants, such as dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
THE DETAILS: According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, mercury (which fish absorb from water, suspended sediments, and their food) may affect the developing nervous systems of unborn babies and infants. Shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and golden bass all contain more mercury than other varieties. As for dioxins and PCBs, they accumulate in fish in much the same manner as mercury, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) categorizes them as likely human carcinogens. Also worth considering: the environmental impact of the fish you buy. Some fishing techniques deplete the stock of not only target fish but of other species caught incidentally. Some fish farms pollute the environment, or allow the farmed fish to escape into the wild and upsetting a delicate ecological balance.

Through inmates' own voices and artwork, Terezín explores the lives of Jewish people in one of the most infamous of the Nazi transit camps.
Between 1941 and 1945, Nazi Germany turned the small town of Terezín, Czechoslovakia, into a ghetto, and then into a transit camp for thousands of Jewish people. It was a "show" camp, where inmates were forced to use their artistic talents to fool the world about the truth of gas chambers and horrific living conditions for imprisoned Jews. Here is their story, told through the firsthand accounts of those who were there. In this accessible, meticulously researched book, Ruth Thomson allows the inmates to speak for themselves through secret diary entries, artwork, and excerpts from memoirs and recordings narrated after the war. Terezín: Voices from the Holocaust is a moving portrait that shows the strength of the human will to endure, to create, and to survive.

I actually didn't read all of it, because you had me at "lack of empathy."
That's an utter (commonly spread) lie - autistic people have as much empathy as anyone, or as little. They frequently have a hard time verbalizing their emotional states, or with figuring out what to do or how to behave regarding the emotions they are feeling.
But they absolutely DON'T lack empathy.
Welcome to the thread!
For the record, my ASC son is definitely my *easier* child by most counts in that he's calmer, more patient, and more "obedient" (hate that word) than my other one and than most kids his age I know.
Anyway, carry on...:

Spaghetti Squash With Zucchini, Garlic, And Tomato Sauce
|Spaghetti squash
|3 Pound (1 Spaghetti Squash)
|Olive oil
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|Yellow onion
|8 Ounce, cut into 1/2-inch dice (1 Medium Sized)
|2 Clove (10 gm), minced
|Canned diced tomatoes in juice
|28 Ounce, drained (1 Can)
|8 Ounce, trimmed and cut into 1/4 inch dice (2 Small Sized)
|Minced fresh parsley
|1⁄3 Cup (5.33 tbs)
|To Taste
|Freshly ground pepper
|To Taste
|Unsalted butter
|2 Tablespoon
|Grated parmesan cheese
|1 Ounce (Half Grated Parmesan Cheese)
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Pierce the skin of the squash in several places with a sharp knife or carving fork.
Place the squash on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until tender when pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes.
While the squash is baking make the sauce.
In a 10-inch saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Swirl to coat the pan and saute the onion and garlic, stirring frequently, until softened and just beginning to brown, about 4 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, adjust the heat so the sauce simmers slowly, and cook for 20 minutes.
Add the zucchini and simmer 5 minutes longer.
Add the parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
Keep warm over very low heat.
When the squash is tender, halve lengthwise.
Use a fork to scrape the flesh from the skin, and place the squash strands in a serving bowl.

Disgruntled iPhone 5 owners may be thrilled to see this soon (simulated image)
Article Summary
If you bought an iPhone 5 or iPod touch 5G, then you've enjoyed the perils and pleasures of the new Lightning connector. The tiny port lets Apple make their new devices so thin, but it also creates annoying costs. A Lightning-to-30-pin adapter costs a whopping US$30. Hardware hackers may have saved the day for Apple's customers, as the Lightning authentication chip has reportedly been cracked.

Water Pressure Regulator
Extend the life expectancy of your pipes and appliances and save money in the long run.
How do I know if I have high water pressure?
- Do you hear a "hammering" sound coming from your plumbing pipes?
- Does the force of the water coming out of the faucets seem too powerful?
- Have the gaskets & seals ruptured in your plumbing fixtures quite frequently?
What is water pressure?Water pressure is the "force of pressure" that must be obtained to "push" the water through an open tap. The continuous flow of water through a plumbing system is the effect of water pressure. Water pressure can fluctuate considerably throughout the Phoenix-Metro area.
What is considered high water pressure?High water pressure, which is commonly considered anything above 80 PSI, can be destructive. This can cause leaky water pipes, drippy faucets, eroded faucet washers, banging pipes and in some cases, high pressure can burst pipes and supply lines which could result in a flooded Valley home or business. Most city codes require a water pressure regulator valve to be installed on any Valley residence or business with water pressure in excess of 80 PSI. Most manufacturers of water heaters, dishwashers, water softeners or other water use appliances, recommend the pressure to be below 80 PSI. If damage is caused to the appliance due to excessive water pressure, this may void your warranty.
What is a water pressure regulator?A water pressure regulator is a plumbing safety device designed to prevent water pressure from climbing too high while also ensuring that the pressure remains high enough to maintain a consistent flow from faucets, taps, and shower heads. Typically, your water pressure regulator would be installed at your water entry to the home, regulating the water to the interior of your home and the irrigation system.
How do regulators save on water?1/3 less water flows at 50 PSI than at 100 PSI. Consequently, when you reduce your water supply pressure to a more moderate pressure of 50 psi, you can look forward to conserving much of the water that was previously wasted. This will be reflected on your water bills.
Do Regulators save on maintenance?When your water pressure regulator is well maintained the water flow into your Valley home or business you will save on the deterioration of all your fixtures, water appliances and piping. Having water pressure under lower pressure extends life expectancy of appliances and pipes and will cut back on service calls caused by avoidable pressure.

Robotic Exoskeleton Helps Get Vets Back On Their Feet
Monday, April 21, 2014
Several bio-tech companies are developing exoskeletons that give people superhuman abilities. These robotic suits are also doing something simpler: They're helping people who are paralyzed, including many veterans, stand up and walk. As Erin Toner of WUWM reports, the technology helps improve patients' mental and physical health, but it's far from changing their lives entirely.

Busta Rhymes ft. T-Pain, Ryan Leslie, OJ Da Juiceman & Gucci Mane - Hustler's Anthem (Remix)
Artist: Busta Rhymes
Featuring: T-Pain, Ryan Leslie, OJ Da Juiceman, Gucci Mane
Producer: Ty Fyffe
Album: Back On My B.S.
Avg Rating: 2.7 ( 36 votes )
Whenever Busta Rhymes releases a hit single, you can count on an equally successful remix (see Pass the Courvoisier, Touch It, Arab Money...). For the inevitable revamp of Back On My B.S. second single Hustler's Anthem 09, the rapper enlists the help of a few unexpected collaborators. Once Busta's spit his quick opener, Ty Fyffe slows down the beat for Ryan Leslie's smooth guest verse. After T-Pain's hook, OJ Da Juiceman and his mentor, Gucci Mane, showcase their adaptability by quickening up their typically slow ATL-style flows to match the unmistakably Northeastern percussion. While the "anthem" factor still isn't quite there, there's no reason this remix shouldn't earn as many spins as the successful original. Back On My B.S., Busta's eighth studio album, is set to hit record stores and online retailers everywhere May 19th.

"Their [US] defense budget in absolute figures is almost 25 times bigger than Russia's. This is what in defense is referred to as 'their home - their fortress'. And good on them, I say. Well done! But this means that we also need to build our home and make it strong and well protected. We see, after all, what is going on in the world. The Comrade Wolf knows who to eat, as the saying goes. It knows who to eat and is not about to listen to anyone, it seems."
- Russian President Vladimir Putin, speaking to the Federal Assembly in his 2006 annual address
The Mil Mi-28 (NATO reporting name 'Havoc') is a Russian all-weather, day-night, military tandem, two-seat anti-armor attack helicopter. It is a dedicated attack helicopter with no intended secondary transport capability, better optimized than the Mil Mi-24 for the role. It carries a single gun in an undernose barbette, plus external loads carried on pylons beneath stub wings.
The Mi-28 has two heavily armored cockpits, a windshield able to withstand hits from 12.714.5 mm caliber bullets, a nose equipped with electronics, and a narrow-X tail rotor (55 deg) with reduced noise characteristics. It is powered by two 2,200 hp Isotov TV-3-117VM (t/n 014) turboshaft engines.
While the Mi-28 is not intended for use as a transport, it does have a small passenger compartment capable of carrying three people. The planned purpose of this is to enable the rescue of downed helicopter crews.
The Mi-28N features a helmet mounted display for the pilot. The pilot would designate targets for the Navigator/Weapons Officer, who proceeds to fire the weapons required to fulfill that particular task.
Pictured here is a 1:72 scale replica of a Russian Air Force Mil Mi-28 "Havoc" Attack Helicopter.

Earl Spalding (born 11 March 1965 in South Perth) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for Melbourne and Carlton in the Victorian Football League/Australian Football League (VFL/AFL).
Spalding grew up in Perth, Western Australia, where he attended Wesley College. His father, George Spalding was a well-known West Australian National Football League (WANFL) player with the Perth Football Club.
After leaving school, Spalding played for 63 games for Perth between 1983 and 1986. He also played four games of first-class cricket for Western Australia as a fast bowler, during the 1984/85 season, taking 12 wickets at an average of 25.66.[1]

Students can register directly from their OneStop by following these simple steps: 1. log into OneStop 2. click on Tools, look for Academic Planning 3. under Academic Planning, click on Volunteer and Service-Learning Center link 4. fill out the form and click submit ONCE 5. a confirmation message will appear when the process is complete 2009 University Million Meals Event: Another Success! The second annual University Million Meal Event was held Saturday, August 22, 2009 at the Boys and Girls Club on Firetower Road. Over 650 volunteers made the event an overwhelming success by packaging over 176,000 meals. Million Meals is a project lead by Stop Hunger Now, a not-for-profit international hunger-relief organization based in Raleigh, NC. Stop Hunger Now has served over 65 countries over the past 11 years by hosting large and small meal packaging events across the state. The organization's mission is to achieve a world without hunger and every year they get closer to this dream by organizing events like Million Meals. This year's event combined the efforts of NCSU, UNCChapel Hill, UNCW , and ECU. The goal was to reach one million meals through the combined efforts of each community. The goal was met and surpassed with a total of 1,031,776 meals packaged. Next year we hope for an even bigger success! If you are interested in helping to plan for next year or in supporting Stop Hunger Now throughout this year please contact the VSLC.

Opportunity Page Four Calendar of VSLC Upcoming Events Fall Service Fair Red Cross Blood Drives A Pirate's Guide to Service Page 2 East Carolina University The Volunteer and Service-Learning Center (VSLC) offers a rare service to ECU students. Unlike at most public universities, ECU students have the opportunity to have the service hours that they complete to be recorded. Once a student is registered with the VSLC, they can fill out and turn in signed time sheets out lining the service that they performed. Once complete time sheets are turned in, a VSLC staff member enters in the hours for that individual into the Center's database. Anytime while enrolled at ECU, and up to two years after, a student may request to have his service hours verified and sent to him or to a desired organization or institution. You may ask, why are recorded hours a great service to ECU students? The answer is that service is something that most, if not all, employers, graduate schools, and professional schools look for in candidates. ECU students have the opportunity to have their hours printed and verified by a staff member How wonderful before applying to jobs or schools. Having a detailed record of service could very well be the element it is that that helps a Pirate graduate stand out! nobody Guidelines for Recording Hours: need wait a � Students should uphold the University Honor Code at all times.

VSLC Student Spotlight Student Spotlight: Charina Sumner As a new addition to "A Pirate's Guide to Service," we will be featuring a spotlight section in each newsletter that will highlight students, faculty, and staff who demonstrate a commitment to service. As our first official spotlight, the VSLC would like to introduce Charina Sumner. Charina Sumner is a senior health education and promotion major. She is from Kailua, Hawaii and came to ECU because she was impressed by the hospitality and kindness that greeted her on her initial visit to the campus and to play softball. Last spring, Charina was awarded the Conference USA Spirit of Service Award, an award designed to recognize the community service efforts of the conference's student-athletes, based upon significant community service, good academic standing, and participation in their elected sport. Ms. Sumner is a dedicated student and athlete but also finds time to give back. She states, "Although being a part of the team takes up the majority of my day, I try to do community service whenever I can." Over the last three years Charina has participated in numerous service events, such as Parent's Night Out, Relay for Life, Adapted Sports Day, and Meals on Wheels. In addition to one-time events, Charina is also a dedicated volunteer of the ECU Health and Wellness Program, which she intends to continue with this fall. When asked why she volunteers, Charina replied "I enjoy volunteering. It keeps me busy and allows me to feel like I have done something worth my time and energy. I truly feel like I have touched the hearts and minds of numerous people." Charina Sumner is an excellent example of how students, even those who are very busy, can become involved in service. The VSLC would like to congratulate Charina for receipt of the Conference USA Spirit of Service Award and for her continued commitment to serving ECU and the surrounding community. VSLC Service: Tracking Volunteer Hours A Pirate's Guide to Service Page 3 What is NC-ACTS! What is Service-Learning? Service-learning (S-L) is a method of instruction that combines organized service and purposeful reflection to deepen students understanding of course content. Service-learning students leave their classrooms and textbooks behind to engage with their communities and bring learning to life! Students apply the skills and theories they've learned in the classroom to solve the real-life problems facing their communities today. In service-learning, students don't just memorize course material, they put it to work for good! Why Service-Learning? Professors know that learning takes place both inside and outside the classroom. Because textbooks do not magically come to life, professors use service-learning to help students practice and question information they digest during more traditional learning acticites. By participating in service-learning, students have the chance to: � apply skills and knowledge � make real decisions that positively impact the sur rounding community � experience and embrace diversity � gain deeper understandings of oneself and society � develop as a leader � develop the ability to analyze information and ideas carefully and logically from multiple perspectives � improve one's ability to write, read, listen and speak effectively How you learn? In a traditional course the instructor will use lectures, course readings, tests, and written assignments. There is a clear distinction between the student and the instructor as the expert. In a service-learning course, the student is active in creating knowledge and determining course outcomes. Service is achieved by service in the community and through reflection in the classroom. East Carolina University Campus Opportunities Service-Learning at ECU Don't Miss This Oppor tunity Wouldn't it be great to be able to do service AND to get money for school at the same time? Well, for some qualifying North Carolina students this is a possibility through a program called NC-ACTS! NC-ACTS! is an Americorps program that stands for North Carolina - Activating Citizenship Through Service! The program began in 2004 and is sponsored by North Carolina Campus Compact, a coalition of 42 college and university presidents collaborating to increase campus-wide participation in community and public service. Participating students must complete 300 service hours in one academic year, in partnership with schools and community-based organizations. The three primary areas that NC-ACTS! students serve are: education, human services, and volunteer recruitment. After completing the 300 hour commitment, students are eligible for an educational award of $1,000 which can be applied towards outstanding student loans or the cost of attendance at a college or university. This year ECU has 25 allotted spaces for NC-ACTS! students. In past years, the spaces have been filled by students participating in unpaid internships, students working as peer counselors in the VSLC, and students dedicated to a particular community partner or organization in Greenville or the surrounding areas. If you or someone you know is interested in participating in the NC-ACTS! Program for the 2009-2010 academic year, please contact Kimberly Caudle at 328-2735 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

For more information, http://org.elon.edu/nccc/ A Pirate's Guide to Service Page 4 Fall Service Fair 2009 Every semester the VSLC sponsors a service fair on campus as a resource for students to meet community partners. The purpose of the fair is to allow for informal conversations between community partners and potential volunteers. The service fairs permit students to meet and learn about community partners and the resources they offer before going to perform service hours. These fairs, in many cases, prevent the need for cold-calling and give students more peace-ofmind when selecting an organization. This Fall's Service Fair will be held Wednesday, September 16 in the Bate Building lobby from 12:30-3:00 p.m. The fair already has 16 confirmed attendees and is shaping up to be a successful gathering. The confirmed Community Partners for the Service Fair are: American Red Cross - Blood Services Aseracare Hospice Carolina Pregnancy Center Community Homecare and Hospice Council on Aging ECU READS Food Bank of Central and Eastern Carolina Girl Scouts Go Science NC Folic Acid Campaign/March of Dimes Pamlico-Tar River Foundation Police Athletic League Real Crisis Center STARS/SONS TOP Soccer United Hospice - Farmville ECU Sponsored Blood Drives East Carolina University is a huge supporter of the American Red Cross. The university has a long tradition of assisting in the collection and donation of blood to support the organization and the surrounding community. Last year ECU broke their individual record for the amount of donations for a single academic year with 2,930 pints of blood being collected on campus. This year ECU's partnership with the American Red Cross continues and the goal is to have another record breaking year with 3,000 pints total being collected on campus. If you are interested in donating blood please attend one of the fall semester scheduled dates listed below.

Crystal Palace midfielder Nick Carle is still pondering a move to Chinese Super League club Shaanxi Chanba.
The Australian international is struggling for regular game time with the Championship club and has been offered a loan deal by Shaanxi until the end of the year but will make sure he researches all the ins and outs of the Chinese club which will include talking to former Adelaide United midfielder Jonas Salley, who has been at the club since March last year.
"An offer has been accepted by Palace and I'm just waiting on a ticket to head out there and have a look," Carle told The World Game.
"I'll also be talking with Jonas, who is still there and did well there last season. He'll be able to give me a few insights on what to expect.
"It's obvious I need to be playing first team football to have a chance of being picked for the World Cup and the standard of Asian football is on the rise. I need to get myself sorted and playing asap."
Carle says the chance of him joining Shaanxi is strong but he just wants to make sure he is taking the right path by doing enough research.
"Things are a little up in the air at the moment but it looks like I'll be heading there. I've done some homework on the club but you really have to be there in person to make a proper judgment," he added.

Villa Los Alamos Homeowners Association v. State Farm General Insurance Company Court of Appeal, First District (August 25, 2011)
In MacKinnon v. Truck Insurance Exchange (WLR September 4, 2003), the California Supreme Court previously held that a standard pollution exclusion clause in a CGL policy was intended to exclude coverage for injuries resulting from events commonly regarded as environmental pollution. This case determined whether the same standard applies in a first party property insurance policy.
The Villa Los Alamos Homeowners Association hired Cal Coast Construction to scrape the acoustical "popcorn" ceilings and stairways in one of its building. The Association was aware that there was some asbestos in the ceiling, and a resident was privy to a report that the material contained less than one percent asbestos. Cal Coast performed its work, and in the process disturbed asbestos contained in the ceilings, releasing asbestos fibers into the air, the common area hallways and stairwells as well as individual units and common areas and public spaces outside the building. The Bay Area Quality Management District cited Cal Coast and removed them from the project, and ordered the Association to perform comprehensive abatement of the building. Ultimately the Association paid $650,000 to fully clean and abate the building.

Clarification: JC Penney-CEO's Vision story
Monday - 1/21/2013, 3:07pm EST
NEW YORK (AP) - In a Nov. 17 story about changes CEO Ron Johnson has instituted at J.C. Penney Co., The Associated Press attributed to Michael Francis, a former Penney president, comments about Johnson's leadership of the company.
The AP quoted Francis as saying that Johnson sticks to his beliefs and that Francis harbors no hard feelings toward Johnson, who fired him. "Life is too short," Francis was quoted as saying.
AP obtained the quotes through an email conversation it initiated from a page for Francis on the social network LinkedIn. After the story was published, Francis called the AP to say that the LinkedIn account belonged to an impostor, and that he himself had made no comments to AP about Johnson. Francis said he had contacted LinkedIn and that the company eliminated the account.
LinkedIn confirmed to the AP that it had eliminated the account but declined to discuss why it did so or whether it had evidence the account was fraudulent.

CRANBURY, N.J., June 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The founders of Oncobiologics, Inc. today announced that the firm, a specialist in biologics proof-of-concept services, will launch itself to the biopharmaceutical industry at the 2011 BIO International Convention. The convention is being held June 27-30 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC.
Oncobiologics was founded by a group of leading scientists and engineers from top-tier global pharmaceutical and biotech companies, including Genentech, Eli Lilly, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Bayer, Merck, Johnson & Johnson, Schering-Plough and Medarex. The company is commercializing a new one-stop proof-of-concept "engine" that will enable biologic drug developers to economically and efficiently develop more of their pre-clinical drug candidates. Oncobiologics has raised start-up funding through U.S. government grants, bank loans, and investments by listed companies and private equity investors.
Oncobiologics founder and CEO Dr. Pankaj Mohan commented, "Oncobiologics was created to help unleash the tremendous wealth of pre-clinical assets generated by the U.S. biopharmaceutical industry. Historically, roughly 40% of those assets suffer significant delays due to capacity and financial constraints. Oncobiologics aims to deliver the world-class technical capabilities found at top-tier companies, with a cost structure that more closely resembles low-cost country outsourcing, thus easing this critical bottleneck."
Adds Mohan, "Our team sees a great business opportunity here, but we are equally committed to opening up the flow of promising drug candidates to the patient populations that so desperately need them."
The Oncobiologics business model features a core set of expert services that are supplemented by strategic partnerships with external industry specialists. Internal services include cell and molecular biology; and process, analytical and formulation development. Manufacturin

Dow Chemical sees deterioration in China in 4Q
Thursday - 1/31/2013, 7:50am EST
MIDLAND, Mich. (AP) - Dow Chemical saw significant deterioration in key markets during the fourth quarter, particularly in China, and posted a wider fourth-quarter loss Thursday.
The company lost $716 million, or 61 cents per share, compared with a loss of $20 million, or 2 cents per share, in the same quarter the year before.
Excluding restructuring and other charges, the Midland, Mich., company earned 33 cents per share, a penny shy of Wall Street estimates.
Revenue slipped about 1 percent to $13.92 billion from $14.1 billion, as sales slipped in North America, Europe, and Asia. That was still better than most analysts had expected, according to a poll by FactSet.
"The second half of 2012 saw significant deterioration in the markets we serve, particularly in China," said Chairman and CEO Andrew Liveris. "In response, Dow identified and took aggressive action to mitigate the effects of a slow-to-no-growth global environment."
China earlier this month showed some signs of a rebound, but it remains vulnerable economically. The economy grew by 7.8 percent, which was China's weakest annual performance since the 1990s.
When the economic downturn hit the U.S., Dow aggressively slashed costs and it has reacted quickly during a drawn out recovery to offset any lack of demand.
Dow said in October that it would close 20 manufacturing plants and eliminate about 2,400 jobs in reaction to slowing economic growth in Europe and elsewhere.
Fourth-quarter sales at Dow's agricultural sciences business rose 17 percent to $1.6 billion on higher volumes and prices, but were offset by lower sales at the company's performance materials and feedstocks and energy divisions.
Overall sales volumes were flat, as a 5 percent decline in Western Europe offset a 5 percent increase in Asia Pacific and 1 percent increases in both North America and Latin America, the company said.
For the full year 2012, Dow Chemical Co. earned $842 million, or 70 cents per share, down from $2.4 billion, or $2.05 per share, in 2011. Revenue fell to $56.79 billion from $59.99 billion.

On Tuesday night, the House of Representatives voted to increase the debt ceiling in exchange for cutting, capping, and balancing the out of control spending that has left us $14.5 trillion in debt.
Read more...
The problem with socialists, according to Margaret Thatcher, is that "they always run out of other people's money." We haven't hit that point just yet, but we have hit our nation's legal credit limit of $14.3 trillion. To avoid defaulting on our loans, policymakers must raise that limit.
The CBO's newly released 2011 Long-Term Budget Outlook forecasts that federal spending will soon exceed spending during parts of World War II. In 1942, federal spending equaled 24.3 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP) (Table 1.3). Less than 25 years from now (in 2035), according to the CBO, federal spending would equal 27.4 percent of GDP under current law, and 33.9 percent of GDP under changes to current law "that are widely expected to occur."
Obamacrats think their man is in trouble because (as usual) he's got "communication problems." He seems to suffer from these all the time, which is odd given that he was elected mainly because of his flair for communicating; given that the queen of England is still, no doubt, enjoying the audio versions of his greatest speeches which he presented to her a couple of years ago (unless she's memorized them by now and no longer needs the royal iPod). And now this formidable speaker can't even make himself understood?
In June 2009, President Obama said, "Medicare and Medicaid are the single biggest drivers of the federal deficit and the federal debt by a huge margin." Two years later, Paul Ryan and the House Republicans have advanced a serious proposal to deal with these two biggest drivers of our debt.
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell will vote against increasing the debt limit unless President Obama agrees to spending cuts and long term reforms that satisfy the bond market, as well as foreign investors, and "astonish the American people."
You see what happens when you bring rapacious lawyers and San Francisco politics together?:
Bill Kristol, with Mara Liasson and Charles Krauthammer, last night on Fox News:
"Welcome to Potemkin, Iowa."
The DCCC is only fooling some of the people some of the time.
"From suicidal astronauts to bestiality, you can learn a lot about what makes the world's worst tyrants tick from the terrible books they write."
Paul Ryan, architect of the Republican budget for 2012, sat in the front row at George Washington University as President Obama delivered his thoughts on the deficit, debt, and Ryan's spending plan. The White House had seated him there, directly in front of the president.
Talk about a successful budgetary proposal: House Budget Committee chairman Paul Ryan's budget would cut 46 percent and $4.4 trillion from proposed deficit spending under President Obama's budget, reform Medicare and Medicaid to put these programs on solid financial footing, and repeal Obamacare. And, within a fortnight, Ryan's proposal caused the sitting president of the United States to abandon any real attempt to defend his own budget, to give a major speech attacking the Republican budget, and to pick a fight that he likely cannot win.
Lately, I've been staying up late at night because I'm just too stressed over the state of the union. Unable to sleep, I often find myself toggling between scores of Excel spreadsheets, crunching all sorts of numbers to get my mind around the gaping budget deficit that is threatening the country. It isn't pretty, as we all know, and unfortunately my computations have only made me feel worse.
Mackenzie Eaglen, of the Heritage Foundation, writes:
Barack Obama responded to Paul Ryan's budget proposal yesterday, and the GOP congressman and chairman of the House Budget Committee will give his rebuttal today. The event is hosted by the think tank e21, and Fred Barnes will be the moderator. Here are the details:
In February, Defense secretary Robert Gates and Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, sounded a cautionary note at a congressional hearing on the defense budget. "We shrink from our global security responsibilities at our peril," Gates warned members of Congress. "Retrenchment brought about by short-sighted cuts could well lead to costlier and more tragic consequences later, indeed, as they always have in the past."

Critical Essay by Jean Fagan Yellin
SOURCE: "From Success to Experience: Louisa May Alcott's Work," in The Massachusetts Review, Vol. XXI, No. 3, Fall, 1980, pp. 527-39.
In the following essay, Yellin argues that Alcott's feminist concerns are revealed in her novel Work, which is distinguished from other nineteenth-century novels "in proposing that women extend their actions into the public sphere."
From Hawthorne's Zenobia to Chopin's Edna, in nineteenth-century American fiction female characters who stray beyond the domestic sphere end their lives as suicides. This literature was written while feminists were emerging into the public arena demanding economic, social, domestic, and political rights for women. During this period Louisa May Alcott wrote Work, an adult semi-autobiographical novel. Daughter of feminist abolitionist communitarians Abba May and Bronson Alcott, neighbor and friend of Emerson and Thoreau, Alcott lived near the center of many of the radical movements of...

Dosimetry audit
The optimum clinical outcome for a patient receiving a course of external beam radiotherapy is critically dependent upon the accurate calibration of the treatment unit. Although it is the responsibility of the clinical facility to ensure that all radiation beams are properly calibrated prior to the first treatment and that the output is closely monitored for stability over the lifetime of the device, it is prudent to obtain independent confirmation of calibration accuracy.
Important Principles
Various laboratories across the globe offer remote monitoring of therapeutic radiation beams through mailed out thermoluminescence dosimeters or other devices which can store information about the radiation dose they have received. Although typically not as accurate as an on-site dose determination with an accurately calibrated ionization chamber, postal audits are convenient, relatively cheap and can serve to identify treatment machine calibration errors in different irradiation geometries. Particularly when a new technology is being introduced, such as Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, mailed out dosimeters can verify that the data in the treatment planning system accurately describes the treatment beam.
