Holland Christian Schools is a partnership between parents, staff, students, and supporters who passionately love the Lord and are deeply rooted in His grace and love. We strive daily to bring our 1,700 students preschool-12th grade to a greater sense of awe and gratitude for the amazing world that He has called us to care for and serve.
With an outstanding teaching faculty, Holland Christian Schools has gained a reputation for educational excellence and for innovation and creativity both in and outside of the classroom. Leading test scores and the pursuit of best practices by our remarkable staff of professional educators have proven that to be the case year after year.
Education today is so much more than classrooms, science labs, art rooms, and gymnasiums. It is also the playgrounds and athletic fields, service trips and Bible studies, music rehearsals and marching bands; it is the relationships built between teachers and students, friends and colleagues, coaches, and athletes.
More than simply Bible classes and prayer tacked on to a standard curriculum, at Holland Christian faith and learning are inseparable, since all learning revolves, in some way, around the universe of our Creator. This encourages a "school of thought" where students learn not what to think but how to think.
Students at Holland Christian participate in an award winning technology program, equipping them with 21st century skills. The One to One Laptop Initiative equips each 6th-12th grade student with their own laptop computer for use 24/7, extending the educational experience well beyond the classroom walls.
Holland Christian has designed 21st century spaces for learning at all of our five school buildings to best reflect the way that today's student learns. This includes classrooms that utilize the latest in technology and meeting spaces for collaboration between students and faculty.
Transforming the world for Jesus Christ is highly inclusive work. More than 13,000 Holland Christian graduates are leaders in their homes, churches, communities, and in nearly every imaginable walk of life. With a Holland Christian education contributing to a rock-solid foundation, these leaders are making an impact in local, national, and international arenas.
At Holland Christian, educational, social, and spiritual opportunities abound beyond the classroom. 78% of High School students participate in co-curricular or extra-curricular activities. Holland Christian High School teams have won 19 State Championships in Athletics and four State Championships in Theatre.

Your baby's crib mattress is an important purchase for your nursery. Learn about the different types & features before you put your little one to bed.
shop crib mattresses
Interior Support System
The following are interior support systems that help prevent sagging and that are important features of a firm mattress:
- Border rods: Located around the perimeter of the mattress, border rods prevent the mattress from sinking when your baby stands or sleeps close to the corners or edges
- Interior steel vertical or X frame bars: Provide a flat uniform surface across the entire mattress
Organic Materials
These days, organic wool or cotton are popular choices for crib mattresses. These materials are naturally fire resistant and free of synthetic chemicals. Organic wool or cotton is also very breathable which can help maintain a comfortable body temperature for baby. These materials are also very resilient and mildew resistant.
There are several factors to consider before for choosing a crib mattress made with organic material. Organic mattresses don't contain polyurethane foam, which gives off potentially harmful VOCs. There is also no presence of unsafe fire retardants.
If you choose to go with organic, make sure:
- the coils have not been treated with oils or chemicals
- organic padding is thickly quilted to avoid slippage
- border wire is strong to prevent sides from sagging (it will last longer and the sheets will be wrinkle free)
- the purest natural materials are used (100% natural cotton, wool, or rubber)
Mattress Covers
It's a good idea to purchase a protective washable mattress cover for your crib mattress. A mattress cover will help keep the mattress clean and fresh and extend mattress life. Also look for a mattress that has a durable multi-layer cover that will protect the mattress from spit up or diaper accidents and one that has vent holes which allow air and odours to escape while preventing seams from splitting.

The T.K. Martin Center for Technology and Disability at Mississippi State University is ready to run, walk, roll, stroll, skate or dance its way through a one-mile course with the help of the Starkville community when it hosts its first Fun Run at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 26.
Speech-Language Pathologist and classroom instructor Christan Toney said the center has been brainstorming ideas for a fun, family-friendly fundraising event that was unlike anything Starkville had seen.
"The motto for our Fun Run is 'Run it, walk it, roll it, stroll it, skate it, dance it … just do it with style," she said. "We want everyone to participate in any way they can."
Toney said participants have the option to extend their run past the designated one-mile mark while stations are set up along the way encouraging those in attendance.
"You can do it one time or you can do it two or three times to make it more like a 5k distance," she said. "Along the route, we will have numerous 'Cheering Stations' that are there to cheer you and your family on was you make your way around the loop."
Toney said she and the center are excited about the event and appreciative of the support they have gained from Cadence Bank.
"We are very excited to be partnering with Cadence Bank for this event," she said. "They have been very supportive of all of our ideas and will be helping us out on the night of the event by volunteering their time."
Proceeds from the Fun Run will benefit Project IMPACT, a comprehensive preschool program for children with disabilities that Toney said has been active since 1999 and services children age birth to five with special needs.
"This program offers a continuum of early intervention services for children with developmental disabilities," she said. "Project IMPACT provides a family friendly approach involving parents and caregivers as essential participants in evaluations and the intervention process. Project IMPACT serves children from Oktibbeha County as well as nine of the surrounding counties."
Special Education teacher Elizabeth Williams said the center has an involved partnership with MSU's Day One Leadership Program which is serving an active and vital role in preparation for the event.
"We have been very impressed with the maturity, creativity and leadership shown by these young freshman students," she said. "Along with helping plan and execute our Fun Run, each Day One student has generously give over 20 hours to working in our classrooms with our teachers and students."
Williams said the the Day One students are impacted by the one-on-one interactions with the young children at the T.K. Martin Center.
"Each Day One student leaves our program with a better understanding of the challenges, and most importantly, the joys of working with children with special needs," she said. "The impact made on our Day One students during this semester will hopefully build a sense of enthusiasm that will lead to further commitments of service and leadership in their communities."
Director of the T.K. Martin Center Janie Cirlot-New said the center hopes to reach out into the Starkville community to further educate and garner support from residents.
"The community can support the T.K. Martin Center y letting others know the services provided by the center," she said. "They can support through donations and participation in the fundraisers."
Another Special Education teacher, Traci Campell, said seeing the improvement and progress of each student is what she enjoys the most about her job.
"My favorite part is watching them progress through our program and know that you were a part of such a vital part of their early childhood education," she said. "Also, when working with preschool children, you get the opportunity to form relationships with their wonderful families."
The teachers said their biggest hope for the Fun Run is for the families of the program to feel the outpouring support and encouragement from those coming out to cheer them on, and call them by name as they finish the run.
The teachers said many times people with special needs are defined by their disability rather than their name, and the race bibs the children will be wearing will show the how powerful it can be to be called out by their names, not their disabilities.
The T.K. Martin Fun Run begins at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 26 with open registration starting at 4:45 p.m. Early bird tickets are $12 for individuals, $30 for a family of three or more and $10 for a raffle ticket.
For more information, call 662-325-1028.

For Narnia
I found myself in a forest.. And realized why I don't go to Narnia.
Me? You want to know about me? You want the long version or the short version? Short versions fine with me.
Okay, here goes. Born and raised in North Pole. Crazy good family. Amazing church. Amazing God. Not perfect, not even close. I have anger issues sometimes. I have a hard time forgiving, but working on it.. If I'm weird, I don't mind your company. If my texts just say okay, I'm not sure how to answer yours. Rough school years.no pets now, but I make an okay dog sitter. Not sure what I want to be when I go to college. I stay up late when I shouldn't. Usually I'm writing when I do. Working on a novel I hope to publish in coming years. My best friend is my editor. Friends: couldn't live with out them. No love life, but don't care. But dream of the day when I marry a semi famous actor. Yah, you will see me on your TV's one day:)
Not sure if that works as a bio, but that's me. If you don't like me because of my faith in God, I'm fine with that. It's just the one religion I can put my hope in because all others have too many rules and not enough love. If I don't have love, I will die. I get really depressed when I don't feel loved. For some reason, I always forget that my God above loves me, and He always brings me up.
I don't coexist. I don't tolerate. I do my best to love people anyway, if that makes sense. I try. Love people because God loved us first. But, all things are possible with Jesus Christ my Lord. (:
And feedback. Don't forget feedback please:) That would be great.
Description: My name's Austin. My game? Assassin. Yah, I work for SHIELD, and I'm the sister of the famous Clint Barton. The Tapes will tell you the rest.

Apologizing for a fat joke he made against Alyssa Milano, comedian Jay Mohr admitted to shaming the "Mistresses" actress during a recent radio interview. Mohr tweeted on Thursday (January 2), writing, "She's stunning. I mistakenly thought the absurdity of what I was saying would have been taken as a joke. #fail." Earlier this week, the
Who's the boss now? Alyssa Milano isn't letting Jay Mohr's recent jab about her weight get to her — but she's not letting him off the hook, either. The 41-year-old actress sent the comedian a direct tweet on Christmas Day after she got wind that he reportedly slammed her for her post-baby body weight. Mohr

CBS has ordered a pilot script for a proposed "re-imagining" of Charmed (read here), but according to at least one of the show's original stars, it's too soon for a reboot.

Has anyone ever told you a juicy piece of gossip and you swore to keep it secret? All of a sudden each conversation that follows feels like you're sitting on a witness stand. If they just said, "Hey, no big deal, but listen to this…" you'd forget it seconds later, and never tell anybody. But
Alyssa Milano doesn't think every child actor is bound to get in trouble with the law.

Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo makes first rocket-powered test flight
by Clara Moskowitz,
Asst. Managing Editor

April 29, 2013
— A private spaceship designed to carry space tourists made its first rocket-powered test flight on Monday (April 29), reaching supersonic speed as it paved the way toward commercial flights in the near future.
Virgin Galactic's
fired its rocket engine for the first time during flight Monday morning in a test from the Mojave Air and Space Port in California. The vehicle was carried aloft by the mothership WhiteKnightTwo, and then released in midair at an altitude of about 47,000 feet (14,300 meters). At that point, SpaceShipTwo
test fired its rocket engine
, designed to propel the craft the rest of the way up to space.
After a short 16-second burn,
SpaceShipTwo soared
to an altitude of 56,000 feet (17,000 meters) before it flew back to Earth. The trip marked the 26th flight of the vehicle, and the first "powered flight," which propelled the ship to Mach 1.2, fast enough to beat the speed of sound, which is 761 miles per hour (1,224 kilometers per hour) at sea level.
"Ignition went as planned, with the expected burn duration, good engine performance and solid vehicle handling," said George Whitesides, Virgin Galactic president and CEO, in a statement. "The successful outcome of this test marks a pivotal point for our program."

"We will now embark on a handful of similar powered flight tests and then make our first test flight to space," he said.
is a suborbital vehicle, designed to carry paying passengers on trips to the edge of space and back for $200,000 a ride. Though these spaceflights won't circle Earth, they will offer a brief experience of weightlessness and a view of the planet from the blackness of space.
Virgin Galactic was founded by British billionaire
Richard Branson
, who was in Mojave on Monday to see the flight.
"This is a momentous day and the single most important flight test to date for our Virgin Galactic program," wrote Branson in a blog post on Virgin's website. "What a feeling to be on the ground with all the team in Mojave to witness the occasion."
If the test flights continue to go well, SpaceShipTwo may carry passengers as soon as late this year or early 2014, Virgin Galactic officials have said. Already, more than 500 people have signed up for the flights, which will be run out of Spaceport America in New Mexico once test flights are complete.

Monday's test flight began at 7:02 a.m. PDT (10:02 a.m. EDT, or 1402 GMT). Flying on board SpaceShipTwo were Mark Stucky and Mike Alsbury, both pilots with the private aerospace firm Scaled Composites, which designed and built SpaceShipTwo for Virgin Galactic. It comes after two recent glide flights, on April 3 and April 12, that tested the vehicle's nitrous venting, feathering and oxider "cold flow," which set the stage for Monday's landmark powered test.
Scaled also built the craft's predecessor,
, which won the $10 million Ansari X Prize in October 2004 by becoming the first commercial vehicle to fly people to space and back twice in two weeks.

Recently I have started seeing small jacks with yellow fins that are about 5 or 6 inches long. They are either young Bluerunner or Yellow jacks. Bluerunners are very common in this area, but I have never seen adult Yellow jacks here. You can see black tips on the tail or caudal fin, so does that make this a Bluerunner? I am confused because I don't see any reference that says a young Bluerunner has yellow fins. I checked the DVD, but it doesn't even have Bluerunners. The photos above are from two different dive locations I did in the last two weeks. Both dives were in the northern Gulf of Mexico, east of Panama City, FL ~Carol
First , it is on the CD-ROM. Look for Runner, Blue (not Bluerunner). Or under family names, Jacks, then scroll down to Runner. And even better yet... once you find them look at the last pic #6 Yellow tail and all. Although, in the text it doesn't say about young ones having yellow fins.
It doesn't seem to me to fit the shape (head in particular) of a yellow. The eye seems a lot closer to the tip of upper lip than in yellows. there also seems to be a lot less yellow on the top of the body itself.
Combined with the clearly yellow fins, the upward curving and sharp downward bending lateral line look like yellow jacks to me.
I agree - yellow jacks. the body shape just isn't right for blue runner. They almost look like young horse eye jack but the eye and tail aren't big enough.
Reading through back posts I find it interesting to see experts disagree. Visual fish ID is not an exact science.
I would say these are Blue runners, notice the dark tips on the caudal.
I think this looks more like the Atlantic bumper minus the spot in the worng spot. the body shape matches and the yellow tail
Thanks for this informative post.

The American Sheep Industry Association (ASI) is calling on sheep producers, both large and small, from east to west, to help accomplish the goal of improving sheep production efficiencies to develop a sustainable future for the industry. ASI has come up with a formula to address this goal, it's called Let's Grow with twoPLUS.
Goal 1
Encourage sheep producers to increase the average birthrate per ewe to two lambs per year.
Goal 2
Encourage producers to increase the harvested lamb crop by 2 percent – taking it from 108 percent to 110 percent.
By implementing pre-breeding and pre-lambing management tools like flushing, teaser bucks, cross breeding and nutrition, increasing the average birthrate per ewe to two lambs per year can become a reality. And although the industry will never do away with predator and disease issues, there are mortality reduction tools out there for those experiencing problems. A great resource for producers to learn about these practices is the SID handbook that ASI has produced. By being on the cutting edge of management practices and new technology, the industry can increase both the lamb birth rate and lower lamb mortality rates. For information on how to order the SID handbook, click on Resources.
Let's Grow with twoPLUS Partners
Producers from across the United States are participating in the twoPLUS initiative and are dedicated to implementing management practices to increase their flock. Click here to read more about these producers and to learn about their plans for expansion.

Oliver Stone heads 'South of the Border' to chat up Chavez and others
The director's new documentary seeks to change U.S. perceptions of South America's leftist leaders.
By Reed Johnson
September 1, 2009
E-mail Print Share Text size
In his new documentary "South of the Border," Oliver Stone is shown warmly embracing Hugo Chávez, nibbling coca leaves with Evo Morales and gently teasing Cristina Elizabeth Fernández de Kirchner about how many pairs of shoes she owns.
These amiable, off-the-cuff snapshots of the presidents of Venezuela, Bolivia and Argentina, respectively, contrast with the way these left-leaning leaders often are depicted in U.S. political and mass media circles. That's especially true of Chávez, the former military officer turned democratically elected socialist leader, who has become the ideological heir apparent to Fidel Castro and the bête noire of Bush administration foreign policy officials.
In setting out to make "South of the Border," which is scheduled to have its world premiere this week at the Venice Film Festival, Stone, a lightning-rod figure himself for the better part of three decades, says that he wanted to supply a counterpoint to the prevailing U.S. image of Chávez, who's frequently represented in stateside op-ed pieces and political cartoons as a bellicose dictator-cum-comic opera figure.
"I think he's an extremely dynamic and charismatic figure. He's open and warmhearted and big, and a fascinating character," says the director of "JFK" and "Wall Street," speaking by phone from New York, where he's working on a much-publicized "Wall Street" sequel. "But when I go back to the States I keep hearing these horror stories about 'dictator,' 'bad guy,' 'menace to American society.' I think the project started as something about the American media demonizing Latin leaders. It became more than that as we got more involved."
In addition to Chávez, Stone sought to flesh out several other South American leaders whose policies and personalities generally get scant media attention in the United States and Europe: Morales; Cristina Kirchner and her husband, Argentine former president Néstor Kirchner; Rafael Correa of Ecuador; Raúl Castro of Cuba; Fernando Lugo Méndez of Paraguay; and Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva of Brazil.
"The press in America, I think you're aware, has divided the Latin continent into the 'bad Left' and the 'good Left,' " Stone says. "They've now listed Correa as the bad Left, along with Morales and with Chávez. They call . . . Lula, the good Left. I don't know what they make of Kirchner yet, because they go back and forth, but I think they're turning against Kirchner more and more. You get this distinction, and I think it's a false distinction."
Both Stone and the film's writer, the Pakistani-British historian, novelist and commentator Tariq Ali, say that the roughly 90-minute documentary isn't intended to be a comprehensive analysis of current South American political trends. It doesn't try to parse the radically divergent views of a figure as polarizing as Chávez. Nor does it substantially address the ongoing criticisms of his incendiary rhetoric (he once called Bush the devil), his frequent dust-ups with Venezuela's opposition media (which supported a 2002 coup against him), or his disputed role in aiding leftist rebels fighting the government of neighboring Colombia.
"We had not set out in the spirit of, like, making this a contentious debate," says Stone, who first met the Venezuelan president in 2007. "When you try to get into every single rightist argument against Chávez, you're never going to win. You're going to bore the audience."
Instead, the filmmakers decided to make what Ali calls "a political road movie" by visiting Chávez's peers throughout the hemisphere and asking what they think of him. Stone and his crew travel from the Caribbean down the spine of the Andes trying to explain the Chávez phenomenon and account for the continent's recent leftward tilt.
A big part of the explanation the film advances is that the free-market economic policies pushed by the U.S. and the International Monetary Fund over the last several years largely have failed to alleviate Latin America's chronic income inequality. The film suggests that financial calamities such as the Argentine peso collapse of 2001, combined with Latin suspicions of U.S. drug-eradication efforts and resentment over the selling off of natural resources through multinational companies, also have contributed to the rise of socialist and social-democratic leaders across the region.
Ali believes that many United States foreign policy officials still are operating on a Cold War paradigm that prevents them from grasping the changing social realities that have brought a new generation of politicians to power.
"These changes that are taking place are not coming about through armed struggle or guerrilla warfare or Che Guevara," Ali says, speaking from London. "All these changes have come about through democratic elections. And that makes it a very, very significant development in that continent."
For some viewers and critics, the political nuances in "South of the Border" may register less than the sight of Stone playfully kicking a soccer ball with Morales or listening empathetically as Chávez articulates his dream of spreading what he calls his "Bolivarian Revolution" across the continent. Stone was roundly criticized for taking too chummy a tone with Fidel Castro in his 2003 documentary "Comandante." He then produced a harder-edged follow-up, "Looking for Fidel," in which he pressed the Cuban leader about his treatment of dissidents and other sensitive matters.
In an era when few Hollywood directors bother to deal with historical or political topics at all, Stone frequently has been targeted for playing loose with historical facts in movies including "JFK" and "Alexander," about Alexander the Great. On this score, he vigorously defends his record.
"You do your homework, you do your research, we always did, whatever you think of my work," he says. "Even going back to 'JFK,' I've always done as much research as we could. And there's mistakes made, but there's a lot of truth, you know, as much as we can put into these movies."
He's alert to accusations of "being soft-hearted or human-hearted" to politicians with whom he sympathizes. But he freely acknowledges where his sympathies lie in "South of the Border."
"I'm rooting for this Bolivarian movement," he says. "I'm rooting for their independence because I think that America has a new role to play in this world, and that's not of an oppressor, but that of a cooperative and, let's call it equal, partner."
The director says that the broader theme behind "South of the Border," and much of his other film work, is the question of "why does America reach out to make enemies." He plans to develop this theme in a 10-part cable TV documentary series "The Secret History of America" that is scheduled to premiere in 2010.
"I'm fascinated by that subject, whether it's the Taliban or whether it's Iran or whether it's South Vietnam, going back to those days," Stone says. "As a young man I [was] brainwashed into believing we had enemies left and right. And now that I've traveled the world, I mean you have to wonder why. Why do we constantly do this? Where is this paranoia born in us?"
Once disentangled, remain in the blissful state of ultimate tanglementlessness.
Any change in the Janquis attitude to explortation -really exploitation - would be welcome.
We'd have to let th southern hemisphere find their natural co-operative levels, without US interference.
We do have enemies though, the real enemies are the enemies we've always had to confront , because they threaten world order, or peace.
A nuclear Iran would fit that description.
The Americas should have a natural geopgraphical co-operation.
Cuba END THAT EMBARGO might naturally move back to a healthy relationship with the US .
Things would naturally co opt into political relationships
Once disentangled, remain in the blissful state of ultimate tanglementlessness.

Wireless Networking with KWiFiManager
Connecting to wireless networks is
more popular than ever. KDE's KWiFi-
Manager is a handy tool for monitoring
and managing wireless connections.
Wireless networks are a very
valuable addition to modern
day computing. Wireless technology
makes it easy to set up the network,
and users can get online from a
growing number of places, including
pubs, train stations, libraries, and airports.
Although a wireless network is physically
easier to install than a wired network,
the software side of a wireless network
is frequently harder to configure.
For instance, for each wireless network
connection, you must select the correct
network name – commonly referred to
as SSID (Service Set Identifier) – and you
must specify whether to use encryption.
If you are using encryption with the connection,
you must specify the right WEP
(Wired Equivalent Privacy) key. KDE's
KWiFiManager utility helps you manage
these and other wireless network settings
and also monitors your wireless
network connections.

The Greater Starkville Development Partnership Military Affairs Committee held its annual Memorial Day ceremony Monday in front of the Oktibbeha County courthouse.
Commander Robert Green of the United States Navy is co-chair of the Military Affairs Committee and welcome special guests Mayor Parker Wiseman, President of Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors Marvel Howard, former Lieutenant Governor and Mississippi State University Vice-President Amy Tuck and keynote speaker Colonel Matthew C. Isler of the United States Air Force.
Chaplain Bruce Latimer began the ceremony with an invocation followed by the presentation of colors by local Boy Scouts Troop 14.
After a rendition of the National Anthem by Lauren Hughes, Mayor Parker Wiseman spoke about the mixed emotions he feels on this holiday.
"Memorial Day marks the beginning of summer and the sense of joy and freedom," Wiseman said. "We must remember the heroic and brave sacrifices of the men and women of this country."
Wiseman said the sacrifices made by the men and women of the armed services are the bravest acts he knows, and stressed the responsibility each community has as the home town of fallen heroes.
"We have a responsibility to ensure that sacrifice is never forgotten," he said. "We must ensure that a hero from Starkville never dies in vain."
Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors President Marvel Howard recognized the collective homage the nation pays to its heroes on Memorial Day.
"We do our best to show our sincere appreciation and gratitude," Howard said, "but even then we would only scratch the surface of the debt we owe."
Howard thanked the men and women of the armed forces for their service and dedication.
"Most of all, however, we thank you for your freedom," he said.
Mississippi State University Vice-President Amy Tuck said she was humbled by the invitation to participate in the day's event, and proud to add MSU's voice to the tribute of our soldiers.
"We will always be thankful for your service and sacrifice," Tuck said. "It is because of them we have unprecedented opportunities."
Tuck said the university was committed to military families citing its Center for American Veterans.
"As we look to the days ahead, we know still that others will be touched by war," she said. "No words are sufficient to describe our national sense of resolve or collective feeling of thanks."
Keynote speaker Col. Matthew C. Isler of the United States Air Force remarked on the cost of freedom during his speech.
"Today we pause to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice and never came home," Isler said. "We gather to remember, heal and keep the families and friends of those lost in our prayers."
Isler spoke about the origins of Memorial Day and commented on the more than 6,000 men and women who have given their lives for the country in the 22 years the United States has been at war.
"We must never forget that freedom is not free," he said.
Area citizens and veterans were on hand to read aloud the names of the 92 men and women who gave their lives from Starkville and Oktibbeha County.
Members of the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars laid wreaths at the courthouse monument while the flag was raised to full mast under the sounds of Mark Hatch playing the traditional military taps.
Green concluded the event with a few remarks and a benediction by Chaplain Latimer.
A national moment of silence was recognized at 3 p.m. in remembrance of our fallen soldiers.

What is breast itch?
An itch is a tickling, irritating sensation accompanied by the persistent need to scratch. The medical term for itching is pruritus. In the breast, redness, swelling, soreness, flaking and scarring may occur in the area of itching. Although scratching may temporarily relieve your symptoms, it can cause more irritation or lead to infection. With most cases of itching, it is best if you can refrain from scratching and leave the area alone to heal.
Causes of breast itch vary and may include insect bites, allergies, trauma, and infections. The skin fold beneath the breast is a warm, shaded, moist area – a perfect environment for germs to grow. Fungal skin infections can thrive there. One of the itchiest infections you can contract is chickenpox, an extremely common childhood illness.
When wounds are healing they often start to itch, which is a sign of improvement. Eczema, contact dermatitis, scabies, and pinworm are other sources of itching. Breast itch can also be a symptom of inflammatory breast cancer, an aggressive form of breast cancer.
Most causes of breast itch are fairly mild and should not be a cause for concern. However, your health care provider should evaluate itching that is sudden, severe or unusual. Itching caused by a serious food allergy can come on rapidly with a strong need to scratch. This type of itching may be symptomatic of a serious anaphylactic reaction, which impairs breathing, causes swelling, fainting, and vomiting, and is considered a medical emergency.
Sudden itching can be a sign of anaphylaxis, a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction to a food, chemical, or insect sting. Seek immediate medical care (call 911) if an itch is accompanied by any serious symptoms, including swelling of the face, swelling or constriction of the throat, difficulty breathing, fainting, change in level of consciousness or alertness, or rash.
What other symptoms might occur with breast itch?
Breast itch may be accompanied by other symptoms, depending on the underlying disease, disorder or condition. Certain conditions that cause breast itch may also involve other body systems.
Related localized symptoms that may occur along with breast itchBreast itch may be accompanied by other localized symptoms including:
- Breast lump
- ... Read more about breast itchsymptoms
What causes breast itch?
Breast itch may have many possible causes, including allergens (agents that cause allergies), infections, autoimmune disorders, or other causes such as stress.
Allergic causes of breast itchBreast itch may be caused by contact dermatitis. Common triggers include:
- Cosmetics... Read more about breast itchcauses

Reuters reports that the strangely named D.S. Music Restaurant in Taipei has an even stranger theme: that of a hospital.
Diners sit around a "bed" as a "nurse" brings them food. Crutches hang from the ceiling, a wheelchair is parked outside, toilets have an emergency sign, and drinks are dripped into the glasses via an IV.
"Food is hard to compete on with other restaurants, so the part we emphasize is service," says assistant manager Ou Chia-hao, brother of the 29-year-old owner. "In Taipei, pressure on people is high, and they want a place near home where they can feel relaxed."
Just like I've always said: Hospitals are synonymous with relaxation and good food.

First Lady Michelle Obama does push-ups on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show'Add to Favorites | The Ellen DeGeneres Show
First Lady Michelle Obama stops by "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" Thursday (Feb. 2). Host Ellen DeGeneres challenges her to a push-up contest (hee!) and then gives the Obamas matching "Ellen" warm-up suits.
Ellen asks if President Obama picks up his own socks:
Ellen: Does he (President Obama) pick up his socks? (Question sent in from a viewer via Facebook)
First Lady: Does he pick up his socks?
Ellen: That's the question.
First Lady: No, no, he doesn't pick up his socks.
Ellen: He doesn't pick up his socks?
First Lady: He thinks he's neat, but he has people who help him. I'm like it's not you that's neat. It's the people who pick up your socks. Those are the neat people.
Ellen: So he's not that kind of anal, neat...hang things in a certain order.
First Lady: No, he likes it neat.
Ellen: But he doesn't do it.
First Lady: No, when we're in Chicago his idea of putting his suit away was hanging it on the edge of the door. So we would have jackets on the edges of the door. It's like there's a hanger. But no, he doesn't get neat points.
Ellen: You can't do everything right. You have to have some flaws.
Ellen and the First Lady do push-ups....
Ellen: How many push-ups can you do? 'Cause I like to do a push-up.
First Lady: I don't know. I can do some. Can you?
Ellen: I can do some. I'm just wondering if you could do more push ups then I can do?
First Lady: It depends on how your back is. I know that you have these back issues.
Ellen: No, no (Ellen stands up and takes off her jacket)
[Ellen and First Lady do push-ups together.]
Ellen: That was amazing...How many was that for her?
Audience: 25....
First Lady: I just stopped.
Ellen: And I thought it wouldn't be good to show off the First Lady so I stopped. Because I thought this looks bad that I'm going to beat her. I'm 54 and you're 48.
First Lady: It's true. There is an age difference.
Ellen: How amazing is that?

'vox-tech mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
You can alter a site's home page (or do more) with types of injection.
:( This random article has pictures of an example:
(See: Putting It All Together)
So depending on the site's places of 'input' - (search boxes, comment
boxes, even the address bar can be used) it is possible to inject code
and potentially do whatever you want.
Depending on the situation it may or may not be a security problem of
the hosting company but could be a vulnerability in a specific site's
code. Especially with PHP. PHP calendars, guestbooks, blogs, etc are
constant targets.
If this was an injection, and if you have access to the apache logs
you can see what exact ip address made the injection, and such. Look
for POST in the logs. A lot of times hackers will try again and again
for several days (weeks) posting random scripts until they get it. So
there can be a long track record recorded in the apache logs.

European pupils enjoy town tour in Burton visit
Posted: November 15, 2013|
YOUNGSTERS at a Burton primary school welcomed students from partner schools in Europe as part of a cultural exchange programme.
Teachers and pupils from schools in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Poland, Latvia, Hungary, Slovakia and Wales visited the Holy Rosary Roman Catholic Primary School where they observed and took part in lessons.
The European visitors also spent time at the National Brewery Centre, the National Forest Adventure Farm, Swarkstone Nurseries and enjoyed a sight-seeing tour of Burton on a vintage bus.
They also took part in activities at the East Staffordshire Horticultural Centre to boost their knowledge of English gardens which was the theme of this year's visit.
Neil Jinks, head teacher of the primary school, said everybody at the school had 'really looked forward' to taking part in the project.
He said: "This project has already benefitted the school culturally and socially.
"Burton is a fabulous town which embodies so many of the positive, traditional qualities of English culture.
"I hope that we provided our guests with a terrific, warm welcome and showed the town in the very best light."
The trip, which is part of the Comenius Project and funded by the European Commission, is now in its sixth year.
It is designed to improve education standards throughout Europe through creating partnerships between schools.
Mr Jinks also said the school's use of IT, classroom organisation and languages had improved as a result of the visit.
He said: "I hope that we provided the children and teachers of our partner schools with some valuable, contrasting learning."
Burton mayor Michael Rodgers and the town's MP Andrew Griffiths met those who took part in the project when they performed songs in a concert at the school.

A new, sustainable company that works on projects around the world has taken root in the Rogue Valley and they're in the business of "reclaiming" wood.
The company is TerraMai and they've moved into the old Burrill Lumber mill in White City.
"We take wood that isn't always appreciated and we turn it into some gorgeous materials like flooring or paneling," said Ken Westrick, owner of TerraMai.
The wood gets a makeover in the Rogue Valley. Depending on the wood, a makeover can mean a trip through a planer or a molder and getting a beautiful oil finish.
Then the good-as-new wood gets used in projects around the world.
"The types of projects we get involved in is Google offices, AT&T stores, Starbucks stores, HBO offices. We've done universities," said Westrick.
"Everything from flooring, paneling, [and] tabletops on some occasions."
The list of companies and projects TerraMai is involved in goes on as more large companies have started looking for sustainability.
"We never cut any live trees. It's always reclaimed. It can be reclaimed from structures," Westrick said.
He said his company takes wood that no one else wants.
"We really take it from [...] raw material that looks ratty to just gorgeous material," he said.
"We reclaim wood from literally around the world so we get material from Southeast Asia, Brazil, from Africa," said Westrick. He added that his company has about a million board feet stored at the facility in White City.
In addition he said some of the wood is sourced from the United States and even from the Rogue Valley.
"This redwood that you're looking at came from a water pipe outside of Prospect," said Westrick as he displayed an old plank.
Once the wood made it through a planing machine, it came out looking brand new.
"It's really cool in this world of homogenization and everything, to really have something that truly does have a story [...] everyone has sat on bleacher seats."
Westrick said it's that special story coupled with sustainability that shows the value in appreciating and re-using what we already have.
In the last year the company has created 20 jobs. Westrick said he anticipates creating more now that they're calling the Rogue Valley home.
According to Westrick, he moved his company to Southern Oregon partly because of the lumber infrastructure. The company in the business of "reclaiming" wood has in a sense, "reclaiming" and breathing a bit of new life into the Rogue Valley's longtime wood industry.

Earl Okine, DE, Florida (didn't see the field much but at 6'7" and good workout numbers he is the perfect PFA and stick him on a PS to develop. He probably has the best body frame of anyone in the draft. If you gave his frame to some of these top notch DE's it would make for an insane DE)

analysisBy Stephen Grootes
South African politics can move so quickly that some people may be forgiven for forgetting how important Trevor Manuel once was. Not to say he's not important now. Just that there was once a time when he was really the second-most important and powerful person in the country, when the rand appeared to quiver at his every word.
And when he was the financial face of the Mbeki government, the person who had to sell his macroeconomic policies to the western world and prove to them that South Africa was not going to follow the path of other African countries on our continent. We will miss him.
In 2008, just a few days after Gwede Mantashe's announcement that the ANC was going to recall Thabo Mbeki, I received a phone call. The person wanted to remain anonymous, and claimed that about half of the Cabinet was about to resign. In those heady days, anything was possible, and I was well ready to believe it. As the person went through a list of people, there was only really one name that mattered. Trevor Manuel's. His name was on the list. But I had two major problems. The first...

Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) April 14, 2014
The Stop EA (elder abuse) campaign is reminding the public to be aware of the common signs of elder abuse in nursing homes and assisted living facilities.
A nursing home, according to the National Institute on Aging, is a place for people who don't need to be in a hospital but can no longer be cared for at home. This can include people with critical injuries or serious illnesses, or those needing care after surgery.
Many nursing homes in California solicit vulnerable elderly clients with acute medical needs and promise to provide quality, individualized care. Instead, these facilities repeatedly use the same profit-driven philosophy that leads to systemic elder abuse in California.
To protect the residents in these facilities, Stop EA has compiled the following 12 symptoms of elder abuse for members of the public to look for in their loved ones who may be in a nursing home:
"It can be difficult to believe your loved one could be a victim of nursing home elder abuse or neglect. Some of the signs are very obvious, others are not," said Jay Renneisen. "Knowing what to look for and learning what questions to ask can help you know for sure and that is why we made this list for the public."
The Stop EA campaign, a California law firm and collection of elder advocates founded by three experienced elder abuse attorneys, seeks justice for families whose loved one's have been harmed in these facilities and to make sure that the same thing does not happen to the next vulnerable, unsuspecting family.
Those who are concerned about the quality of care their loved ones may be receiving in one of these facilities can obtain a free, private case evaluation from Stop EA by calling 1-866-864-1800.
For more detailed information on these symptoms, how to report elder abuse and informational videos, visit stopea.org.

One of the major issues in education is the attempt by pro privatization groups to discredit and destroy public education, replacing it with for profit schools. There are many major issues in education, but this attempt to discredit and destroy public education tops the list because it is through public education that the United States attained its world technological lead by the 1950s.
American public education has come under heavier and heavier attacks over the past several years. Those on the attack say that public school isn't educating our children properly. This attack continues unabated and is one of the major issues in education today.
Who and why are they on the attack?
According to one 2005 article, by Robert Freeman, there exists an organized, intense lobby to privatize public education and win the 500 billion dollars in contracts for grades K-12 that would be made available by such a victory.
Hence, in the interest of private industry, teachers are being criticized as lazy, public schools as failing, and public bureaucracies as unresponsive. A steady vilification of the public education system has been occurring over the past twenty years by these private interests and is one of the major issues in education.
But is public education really failing our children? According to one article, the answer is a resounding no.
Freeman maintains that the Scholastic Aptitude Test is the best measure of student progress for the following reasons:

The name of this organization shall be the Interfraternity Council of Hampden-Sydney College.
The new full Interfraternity Council shall take office at the first meeting in January.
The Interfraternity Council shall meet the first Tuesday in every month.

Other committees may be established by the executive committee of the Council to aid in conducting the duties of the Council.
Each fraternity shall pay to the Interfraternity Council annual dues of $10 for each member. Upon initially pledging, each new pledge shall pay $40 directly to the IFC. The funds collected shall be used to advance the total fraternity program. The due date will be set by the Secretary-Treasurer of the IFC. Failure to pay dues by this date may result in a penalty determined by the Judiciary Committee.
Amendments to this Constitution require a three-fourths majority of the entire Council.
Admission of a new fraternity to membership in the Council shall require a three-fourths majority vote of the entire Council in favor of the petition.
All measures passed by a majority vote of the Council at its regular meetings shall be entered into the Statutes from the time of their passage. These must be approved annually by the IFC.

House at the End of the Street Photo Movie Stills
House at the End of the Street is looking to be a great horror movie coming this September 21, 2012. They have just released a huge 10 photo movie still gallery giving us some pics as the relationship begins to form between the two. The horror film is directed by Mark Tonderai. The movie stars Elisabeth Shue, Jennifer Lawrence, Max Thieriot and Gil Bellows. Definitely an upcoming movie you should keep on your radar.
House at the End of the Street Photo Movie Stills
Seeking a fresh start, newly divorced Sarah (Oscar-nominee Elisabeth Shue; Leaving Las Vegas, Piranha 3D) and her daughter Elissa (Oscar-nominee Jennifer Lawrence; The Hunger Games, X-Men: First Class) find the house of their dreams in a small, upscale, rural town. But when startling and unexplainable events begin to happen, Sarah and Elissa learn the town is in the shadows of a chilling secret. Years earlier, in the house next door, a daughter killed her parents in their beds, and disappeared - leaving only a brother, Ryan (Max Thieriot, My Soul to Take), as the sole survivor. Against Sarah's wishes, Elissa begins a relationship with the reclusive Ryan - and the closer they get, the deeper they're all pulled into a mystery more dangerous than they ever imagined.

The 2014 edition of the forum Investir en Côte d'Ivoire (ICI) ended optimistically for several young Ivoirians who received funding to launch their projects. However, many young entrepreneurs regard self-financing as a more pragmatic way approach way of achieving their ambitions.
Four days, 3,700 participants - including 1,500 investors from over a hundred countries, 162 stands, 15 group sessions on themes like SME promotion, renewable energy and agro-business. Plus, investment intentions totalling 443 billion CFA francs.
As far as Ivoirian authorities are concerned, these figures testify to the success of the largest economic forum ever held in Abidjan, which took place earlier this month.
Funding opportunities
For Bacely, Philipe, Aline, Charly and many of their peers, the 2014 ICI was a golden opportunity to get business ideas and to learn from the experienced entrepreneurs taking part in the event as exhibitors.
Bacely Yorobi (featured in a previous RNW article here) is an internet marketer. The 26-year-old entrepreneur is the man behind SocialSpot, a project meant to ultimately enable small businesses to do proximity marketing and give web surfers free internet access via a wide network of hotspot connections.
As a laureate of the forum's start-up competition, Bacely received a cheque of four million francs. It was a much-needed capital injection to kick-start his project.
IT expert Ehui Delmas (who also featured in a previous RNW article here) was also among the contest's young laureates. His project, Môh Ni Ba, which uses communication technology to enable and facilitate birth registrations in rural areas, received funding from the government at this year's ICI forum.
Business connections
No cash prize went to Charly Kodjo (26). But the owner and manager of Instant de Vie Studio, a company specialising in internet photography and audio-visual productions, won in other ways. The young entrepreneur managed to sign up new clients and make business contacts.
"We want to solve the problem of [photographic] content on the web. The idea is to produce photographic content for commercial websites. With online shopping, the quality of the pictures greatly influences sales. But online stores in Africa tend to display poor pictures of their products," says Charly.
As far as funding is concerned, Aline Yao (28) and Philipe Kouakou (31) were successful at making business contacts. Aline talked to potential investors about the expansion of her interior decoration agency. Philipe got a few business people interested in his idea of a modern carwash franchise.
Self-financing, the ultimate solution
For entrepreneurs like Bacely and Ehui, the government funds provide much-needed starting capital. However they still need more funding if they want to sustain and grow their respective enterprises. The SocialSpot manager seems to have found a solution. "It is self-financing and we are working on it," he reveals.
Charly Kodjo is already in self-financing mode. "At the beginning, like any other entrepreneur, I was looking for funding. In fact, I used to believe in receiving funds from a bank or a relative. But now I don't wait and hope for these somewhat miraculous funds anymore. I have a plan [... ] I will finance myself by securing new contracts. I've already tried this and it works very well," he explains.
Philipe is also considering self-financing. "The funding we seek from government structures, private or state-related companies might never come - or arrive a little too late," he says.
"The next edition of the ICI Forum is in 2016 and young people should not wait until then," Aline adds. "If they hope to realise their projects by relying on funding from the government of private companies, they are in for a long wait. I think it is time they considered self-financing strategies."
