49 year old woman | Houston, TX, USA | Seeking men 30-50 within 50 miles
I believe this can really happen :-)
First off...don't hate the winks. How else am I going to know if you are interested? Trust me, I will take the time to respond and send a nice email once I know the feeling is mutual. I believe in love, laughter, having fun and good conversation. I am very comfortable with myself and my life, I'm just missing the right person to share that with. I do not indend to take over your life, I am only looking to be a part of it. It's pretty simple, I want to share the everyday responsibilities and joy's with someone, I don't want to do it alone anymore. It takes two to make a relationship work. A wise old man once told me that a relationship is not 50/50, it is 100/100. I like to travel and experience new cultures. My father was in the military, so I moved around growing up and was priviledged enough to get a taste of what it is like living overseas. Sometimes I am a trip planner and like to take a nice vacation; while other times I have been known to throw on a hat and take off at the last minute. I equally love dressing up for a nice night out or dressing down at a cozy hole in the wall place to relax. I definitely Iove to wear my teams shirts and watch football, just wish it could be all year round! If we click as a couple, you won't be hesitant to take me out. I dress well and am not shy to put on a sexy, but classy outfit. Some of the things I enjoy in a man are intelligence, charm, a good sense of humor (with a little sarcastic side like myself), kindness to others and a sensitive side. I like a man that cooks, watches movies in bed on a lazy day, and has a wide variety of interests. I understand that there is a balance between work, friends and family so I don't begrudge my partner time with the guys, as long as I can have my time with the girls as well. Believe in love at first sight? Perhaps! I do believe you can be strongly attracted to someone for both conscious and unconscious reasons. And I love the butterflies that go along with it when you do. So, here it is...I am looking for that one person I want to spend the rest of my life with. There are several dating sites oriented toward a brief encounter and that is not for me. And please understand that I am not interested in a friends with benefits relationship either. On the other hand, even if we don't find a connection as a couple, there is always the potential for a new friendship. Look forward to meeting you!! :-)
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Gardening/Landscaping , Hobbies and crafts , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing sports , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Baseball, Cycling, Football, Golf, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, VolleyBall, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Dogs, Horses
Sunday brunch, mexican food and sushi is at the top of the list. Favorite vacation spots would have to be somewhere with a beach or mountains. I loved my trip to Europe a few years ago, and looking forward to the next one.
Dogs and kids. Even though I don't have any of my own, I absolutely adore them!!
There is not much that I do not like to do. I am up for pretty much anything. I enjoy to play golf (more for fun)! Going to the movies or staying home and watching a movie. I love to cook and would like to find someone to share recipes with.

Well during the 4 weeks they showed no anime. One was in October, 3 in this time slot. Do you rewatch the episodes? Or do you just read the manga?
I tend to rewatch them, you tend to catch some minor stuff you missed before, and because it is so far, stuff makes sense surprisely.

Hudson thanks prosecutors, God after jury verdict
Alvarez said Hudson would not speak to the media about the verdict but would release a statement "at the appropriate time."
The jury foreman said he hoped the verdict would bring Hudson closure.
"I hope she can put this thing behind her and get on with the rest of her life," Robert Smith, a 47-year-old employee at Chicago Public Schools told reporters outside court.
Hudson, 30, rose to prominence as a 2004 "American Idol" finalist. But she became a bona fide star for her performance in the film adaptation of the musical, "Dreamgirls," for which she won the 2007 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
Hudson was the first witness prosecutors called to testify, and during her more than 30 minutes on the stand she talked about her murdered family members and spoke endearingly about her nephew, Julian King, whom she called Tugga Bear. She said she knew Balfour since the eighth grade and always deeply disliked him.
Balfour had lived in the Hudsons' three-story Englewood home after marrying Julia Hudson in 2006. He moved out in early 2008 after falling out with his wife, but witnesses told jurors he often stalked the home.
The killings occurred the morning after Julia Hudson's birthday, and prosecutors said he became enraged when he stopped by the home and saw a gift of balloons in the house from her new boyfriend.
After his estranged wife left for her job as a bus driver on the morning of Oct. 24, 2008, prosecutors said Balfour went back inside the home with a .45-caliber handgun and shot Hudson's mother, Darnell Donerson, 57, in the back; he allegedly then shot Jason Hudson, 29, twice in the head as he lay in bed.
Prosecutors said Balfour then drove off in Jason Hudson's SUV with Julian — Julia's son, whom she called Juice Box — and shot the boy several times in the head as he lay behind a front seat. His body was found in the abandoned vehicle miles away after a three-day search.
The defense tried to counter the portrayal of Balfour as an embittered husband by noting Julia Hudson continued to have sex with him until just days before the killings.
In heated closings Wednesday, Thompson, almost shouting, said prosecutors had failed to prove their case. Prosecutor James McKay shot back that the defense was exploiting a popular misunderstanding that circumstantial evidence is lesser evidence.

Prineville's doctor shortage
|| Print |
|High Five
|Tuesday, February 08, 2011
Prineville is experiencing a shortage of physicians, with a ratio of about one family doctor for every 943 citizens.
The shortage mimics a nationwide problem, says CEO of Pioneer Memorial Hospital, Bob Gomes. Specialists get paid much more than family doctors, and it is difficult to recruit physicians to remote, rural areas.

UPDATE: Richie Sambora Denies Threatening to Kill His Ex-Girlfriend
Los Angeles police are investigating claims that Richie Sambora threatened to kill his ex-girlfriend and "dig a hole in the desert and bury" her.
Los Angeles police are investigating claims that Richie Sambora threatened to kill his ex-girlfriend and "dig a hole in the desert and bury" her.
Jon Bon Jovi insists he has "no hard feelings" for Richie Sambora following Sambora's unceremonious departure from Bon Jovi.
Bon Jovi may be appearing without him on the "Because We Can" tour, but it's former guitarist Richie Sambora who seems determined to showcase an amazing versatility: Recent Australian shows saw him performing solo tracks and songs he hand in writing with Bon Jovi, of course, but also covers by local heroes like INXS and Midnight Oil - and even Prince.
The rumors continue to fly regarding Richie Sambora's absence from the latest Bon Jovi tour.
Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora isn't currently working with the band, but that doesn't mean he isn't working. Sambora surprised everyone by dropping the link to a new song on Twitter recently. 'Come Back as Me' came on Monday, during a conversation with his followers.
With no end to his hiatus from Bon Jovi in sight, guitarist Richie Sambora is keeping busy with some new solo material.
It's been tough for hardcore Bon Jovi fans to watch Richie Sambora sit out the band's latest tour (and feud with Jon Bon Jovi in the press), but all hope is not lost.
Richie Sambora's private plane was forced to make an emergency landing after running into some midair problems yesterday. Apparently trouble with the hydraulic pressure caused the unscheduled landing.
After laying low for a few weeks, Richie Sambora has decided to speak up about his recent departure from the Bon Jovi lineup -- and it sounds like fans may need to start preparing for the possibility that he may never return.
Jon Bon Jovi knows it's a hard, lonely life for a rock 'n' roll cowboy -- especially one whose pardner has vanished and the press won't stop asking him why.
Jon Bon Jovi still isn't going on the record about the circumstances that led to Richie Sambora's abrupt departure from Bon Jovi's most recent tour, but he insists the door is wide open for Sambora's return.
More bad news for Richie Sambora fans. Bon Jovi recently revealed that the guitarist will be sitting out the upcoming European and South African legs of their current 'Because We Can' tour, which kicks off on May 7.

How-To Program Guide for Army Family Covenant Functions 2008.06.18 Introduction: In October 2007, Army Leadership unveiled the Army Family Covenant. The Covenant communicates the Army's commitment to provide the Army Family with a quality of life that honors the sacrifices our Soldiers and their Families make to protect America's Freedom. The Family and MWR Command (FMWRC) recommends garrisons capitalize on local events (i.e. Soldier Show, Army Birthday Celebration, Town Halls, etc) and conduct a strategic communications function to promote the Army Family Covenant. The intent behind the function is to showcase garrison accomplishments and initiatives that are making the Army Family Covenant a reality. This document is a guide for garrisons to use in executing a successful function to "tell success stories" at your respective installations. If you have any questions on the development and execution of the function, please contact the FMWRC Marketing points of contact below. Marketing Account Manager Marketing Visual Design Manager POC: Jen Rondez POC: Edward Griffin Telephone: 703-681-5278 Telephone: 703-681-7486 DSN: 761-5278 DSN: 761-7486 Fax: 703-681-7353 Fax: 703-681-7440 Email: email@example.com Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Senior Marketing Manager Acting Marketing Director POC: Karen Waters POC: Kristen Campbell Telephone: 703-681-5275 Telephone: 703-681-5273 DSN: 761-5275 DSN: 761-5273 Fax: 703-681-7440 Fax: 703-681-7440 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Background/Overview of the FMWRC test pilot Army Family Covenant outreach initiative in conjunction with the Soldier Show: The first FMWRC Soldier Show Reception was hosted on Saturday, 12 April 2008 in the Wallace Theatre, Fort Belvoir, Virginia. The 45 minute progressive style reception ran from 1815-1900 before the Soldier Show performance scheduled at 1930. The program areas featured at the reception included: Standardizing and funding existing Family programs and services; Increasing accessibility and quality of health care; Improving Soldier and Family Housing; Ensuring excellence in schools, youth services, and child care; Recreation and Quality of Life; and Expanding education and employment opportunities for Family members. A large poster of each program was produced and placed in and around the Wallace Theatre. Each station was staffed with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) who discussed and highlighted key accomplishments in their respective program area in support of the Army Family Covenant. In addition, FMWRC provided food and beverages to guests. The reception was a successful collaboration between FMWRC, Installation Management Command, OTSG/Medical Command, and Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management. Three Step Process: The Army Family Covenant function is a three step process. Step one is knowledge and communication. Step two is planning and execution. Step three is event evaluation. STEP 1 – Knowledge and Communication The intent behind the function is a strategic communications opportunity for senior leadership to "tell the story" about how the Command demonstrates its commitment in delivering the Army Family Covenant promise to Soldiers and their Families. The goal is to host a function to convey the messages and obtain maximum attendance from the community to highlight the garrison's achievements in support of the Army Family Covenant. STEP 2 – Planning and Execution Planning Identify key garrison staff managers to assist in the planning and execution of the function. At a minimum, Marketing, Special Events, and Public Affairs should be represented on the team. Marketing will be the lead on this effort with solid collaboration from all garrison key managers. SMEs must be selected to assist in staffing the different program areas. The SMEs will be the "program ambassadors" in communicating the messages to attendees. Leverage local partnerships to obtain the maximum potential of this opportunity. Location If the installation function is in conjunction with the Soldier Show, utilize the same location or one within close proximity to where the Soldier Show performance is being held. Attendees The function is open to all authorized MWR patrons and invited guests. Program Stations: There are six program areas during the progressive function. They are Standardizing and funding existing Family programs and services; Increasing accessibility and quality of health care; Improving Soldier and Family Housing; Ensuring excellence in schools, youth services, and child care; Recreation and Quality of Life; and Expanding education and employment opportunities for Family members. Each program area must have three components of the Army Family Covenant: the Army Family Covenant signing poster; one specific program poster; and the garrison input of that respective program area. See illustration below: Under each program (using the template provided with this toolkit), list the installation Command accomplishments and/or initiatives that have been executed or in the plans of being implemented at your respective installation. Please collaborate accordingly with Program Managers before finalizing the key items that will be featured on the installation poster board. At the FMWRC VIP reception, Fort Belvoir accomplishments were highlighted to complement the national initiative exhibit of the Army Family Covenant. The Army Family Covenant poster cross-walked the Fort Belvoir display and demonstrated the installation Command's commitment. It provided the Garrison the opportunity to showcase its actions in support of the Army Family Covenant. Below are samples of the Fort Belvoir posters used at the FMWRC Soldier Show VIP reception: Catering: Service of food and beverages is an option to be considered for the function. Participating installations are given the flexibility to select one of two options: 1. For a quick and easy reception, recommend serving desserts and beverages. 2. For more elaborate reception, serving hors d'oeuvres and beverages butler style is ideal for a small venue. The key take-aways in hosting the reception are the opportunity to communicate and deliver the Army Family Covenant messages and highlights of the Garrison's efforts in making the Covenant a reality. Staffing: Program Managers are key in delivering the messages to the community. These different positions include the following: • Event Coordinator – oversees all facets of the event • Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) – assign two SMEs at each program area for maximum delivery of the Army Family Covenant messages. Both SMEs must be knowledgeable of all the materials being presented. To provide consistency in messaging, we suggest "talking points/script" consist of the top three accomplishments that provide the most value to the audience. • Official Party – meet and greet the guests o Garrison Command Staff • Welcome Committee o "Official Greeter" - welcomes the guests and provides a quick run down of what they are about to experience o "Event Operations" – responsible for the flow of guests from one area to another • Program Ambassadors – provide support in all areas as needed Execution: A review with all key managers about the intent of the function; how the event will run; and staff responsibilities prior to the event will ensure that everyone is familiar with the overall expectation. The key to success is preparing for expected and unexpected occurrences at the event. A rehearsal is recommended to work out details of the event execution prior to the actual event. During the dry-run, each SME should be prepared to practice the delivery of their respective program "talking points/script" in order of importance. Included are samples of the talking points/scripts used by FMWRC SMEs. Step Three – Event Evaluation It is important to utilize research methods to measure the effectiveness of the function and to obtain feedback from guests regarding their opinion about the Army Family Covenant. The following are possible mechanisms to conduct an evaluation: • On-site questionnaire to be completed by guests • Comments from event staff • Feedback from SMEs FMWRC is requesting a one-page event recap and event photos from the Army Family Covenant function two weeks post event (form attached). Send event evaluation to Ms. Jen Rondez, FMWRC Marketing Account Manager via the following options: Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Fax: 703.681.7353 Mail: 4700 King Street Alexandria, VA 22302-4403 Talking Points/Script for Standardizing and Funding Existing Family Programs and Services • Family programs at the Installation level are available through Army Community Service (ACS) and the Soldier and Family Assistance Center (SFAC). • The Army Integrated Family Support Network (AIFSN) was created to establish and reinforce partnerships between Active Duty, Recruiters, National Guard, and Army Reserve support services, local and state community services and corporate America. Families can use a single portal at www.MyArmyLifeToo.com with links to the Guard and Reserve websites. The AIFSN goals are: a. To establish a unified approach to providing support to the geographically dispersed. b. To provide baseline services ranging from Information Referral and Follow-up, employer support for the Guard and Reserve, child care, legal assistance to Wounded Warrior/survivor programs. c. To standardize program training for all component staff, Soldiers and Family members. • Provided 1,029 Family Readiness Support Assistants (FRSA) down to the battalion level to provide support to Family Readiness Group Leaders. The first initiative of the Secretary of the Army and the Chief of Staff was to have these FRSAs. They work for the respective commander and ACS supports them with Information and Referral and training. • Increased hours of Respite Care from 16 to 40 for Families with exceptional Family members. Provided approximately $8M to support Families enrolled in the Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) with medical or education needs. • Provided 477 Army Community staff positions to "right size" our ACS facilities to meet operational demands. • Increased the number of Military Family Life Consultants (MFLCs) throughout the Army including Guard and Reserve.

As of 30 Sep 07, ASEP Partners had hired over 23,460 military spouses, with over 7,214 hired in the period Jul 06 to Jul 07. • The Military Spouse Job Search website, www.msjs.org, was launched in Jul 05 as a portal for military spouse resumes and a place for ASEP partners and registered military spouse-friendly employers to post their job vacancies. Talking Points/Script for Increasing Accessibility and Quality Heath Care "We are committed to improving Family readiness by increasing accessibility and quality of health care." Soldier Family Assistance Centers in the vicinity of medical facilities have been established to provide one-stop assistance • Administrative and financial assistance • Assistance with coordinating government entitlements, benefits and services • Providing information and assistance in obtaining non-governmental benefits and services - A recent Warrior Transition Unit Survey found that Soldiers in Warrior Transition Units reported an increase in their ability to contact and talk with their PEBLO Adapt health care systems to improve access and quality • 35 Warrior Transition Units stood up (9,866 Soldiers) with singular focus of Warrior healing and support to Army Families - The Warrior Transition Units implemented a TRIAD of Care, to include, Squad leader, Primary Care Managers, and Nurse Case Managers to manage the care of Warriors in Transition, and augments each Warrior Transition Units with Social Workers to address mental health • 163 newly hired behavioral health providers adding 16,000 appointments per month - Filling behavioral health contracts has proven to be very difficult in some market areas.

Army Family Housing • Traditional Army Family Housing -- Consists of overseas and non-privatized Family housing programs. -- By the end of FY08 Army will have 29,000 government owned Family housing units of which 69% are located in foreign locations and 31% in the United States. --It is expected that by FY15 the number of government owned family housing units will be approximately 15,000 with 93% located in foreign areas and 7% located in the United States. • Residential Communities Initiative (RCI) -- Housing Privatization gives the Army the ability to leverage private sector capital and best business practices, providing quality facilities and communities today that will be sustained throughout the next 50 years. --The RCI Program will include 45 installations with over 89,000 homes at the future planned end-state. --This will equate to 97% of all Army Family housing in the United States. --As of 31 March 2008, over 77,000 homes at 36 installations have been privatized. --Also as of 31 March 2008,13,823 homes have been built and another 11,227 renovated. --All RCI newly constructed homes are Energy Star Compliant (only 5- 10% built in the private sector are compliant). --Accessible Boundless Parks/Playgrounds have been built. --RCI was selected as a 2008 winner of the Urban Land Institute's Awards for Excellence: The Americas Competition is widely recognized as the land use industry's most prestigious recognition program. --Fort Belvoir received the Congress of New Urbanism Award. --The Hawaii project won the Project Finance magazine 2005 Project Finance Award for best public-private financing in North America. • Leased Family Housing -- The Army will continue to lease Army Family housing in areas where on-post housing is insufficient or unavailable or where leasing is more cost effective than construction or other acquisition of housing. -- Family housing leases will continue to be a transitional mechanism for housing Soldiers and their Families until on-post housing and private development catch up to demand where significant force increases are experienced due to the Army Transformation and the Grow the Army initiatives. -- The domestic leasing program also includes Independent Duty leases to support geographically displaced Soldiers and Families from the US Army Recruiting Command, Cadet Command, and Active Reserve Component as these Soldiers are usually stationed distant from housing and other amenities normally associated with a military installation. -- The judicious placement and execution of Army Family Housing domestic leases is a significant factor in stimulating local development and easing the scarcity of adequate housing in markets significantly impacted by basing decisions. -- Foreign leasing of Army Family Housing is more economical than construction in many areas. In concert with the Global Defense Posture Realignment (GDPR), major Build-To-Lease projects are underway at Grafenwoehr, Germany (1,776 units) and Vicenza, Italy (215 units) -- Number of leases currently executed: Domestic = 2,672 Foreign = 6,276 • Housing for Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) - Housing is an overarching quality of life issue because it is vitally important to the morale and well-being of Soldiers and their Families – it affects readiness of individual Soldiers, their units and organizations. One aspect of the EFMP program ensures that Soldiers with dependents who have fiscal impairments relocate to and reside in areas that can adequately treat impairments. Commanders must ensure that EFMP documentation is processed through EFMP channels to ensure housing is available to support individual EFMP needs housing needs current and gaining installations. • Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliant Family Housing -- For military Family Housing, at least 5% of the total inventory but not less than one unit of all housing will be accessible or readily and easily modifiable for use by persons with disabilities. Common areas such as parking, play areas, streets, and walks, and common entrances to multi- unit buildings and facilities will be designed and built to be accessible. -- Garrison Commanders may approve exceptions to waiting list policies under special circumstances such as extreme hardship, compassionate, or medical reasons. • Housing Service Offices and Automated Systems -- Approximately 67 percent of our Soldiers with Families reside in off- post housing. Army housing is refining and enhancing its housing services to satisfy this requirement and increase its visibility to, and recognition by, our Soldiers. -- Our Housing Services Office (HSO) is the point of entry for community and privatized housing. HSO-enhanced referral services include new methods of delivery. -- The Automated Housing Referral Network (AHRN) (www.ahrn.com) is an intensified collaboration with other housing relocation entities and installation housing offices that is sponsored by the Department of Defense (DoD). It is the provision of home-buying services. -- Army Housing OneStop (AHOS) is dedicated to providing local and community information for each installation in the Army. The highlight of the AHOS website is that several installations have welcome videos that provide introductory visuals and facts to what is to be expected upon their arrival. Unaccompanied Personnel Housing (UPH) • The Army's barracks investment strategy is to deal the Army's barracks by immediately addressing Life, Health. or Safety (Triage), looking for ways to accelerate the Barracks Upgrade Program (BUP) and achieve basic quality of life by an amber rating. • First Sergeant's Barracks Initiative (FSBI) -- FSBI is a key component of the Army's Barracks Strategic Plan approved in October 2007, and will standardize barracks management Army-wide. -- This program enhances single Soldier quality of life, reduces overall un- programmed single Soldier Basic Allowance for Housing, maximizes barracks utilization while reducing the number of Certificates of Non- availability and reallocates Soldier time from non-war fighting tasks. -- FSBI will provide top quality oversight and management of daily barracks operations, will manage and champion daily maintenance and repair requirements and schedule sustainment for long term viability. The program management and sustainment cost is approximately $106M/year starting in FY08. -- After a comprehensive pilot program at Fort Hood, TX, in FY06-FY07, implementation at other Army installations was expanded. • Barracks Modernization Program (BMP) -- This fiscal year (FY08) the Army will have built or modernized 13,300 barracks spaces for about $1.84 Billion. -- Currently has funded a total $9.4 Billion for permanent party barracks through FY07 and is funding $2.2 Billon in FY 2008 for permanent party barracks construction, renovation, and modernization. -- The way ahead is to replacement construction for Korea-era barracks, deficit construction, replacement of Hammerheads (1951-1953);"H" style (1954-1958); and Rolling Pins (1958-1968). -- These modern barracks will be constructed in the 1+1 standard and accelerate the buyout of common latrines. -- All newly constructed barracks are fully equipped with new furnishings. • Training Barracks Program --The Training Barracks Modernization Program (TBMP) is funded for $6.4B Active Compenent (AC) trainees that will allow for 67,800 Soldiers to get out of dilapidated and poorly configured barracks. --$548.8M have been programmed for the National Guard and Reserves Training Barracks. --Relocatables will continue to be used until the FY15 buyout. • Operational Readiness Training Centers (ORTC) -- ORTC's are needed to provide barracks for annual training and Mobilization. -- The strategy is to demolish WWII-wood facilities as ORTC complexes are constructed. -- Funding has been programmed for FY09-13 totaling $403.0M for MCA, MCAR and MCNG projects. • RCI Privatized Senior Enlisted Unaccompanied Personnel Housing --The Army has expanded the RCI model to include Unaccompanied Senior Enlisted/Officer Quarters (USEQ/UOQ) apartments at 5 installations to the shortage of adequate/affordable off-post rentals. --5 on-post apartment residential communities (Fts Irwin, Drum, Bragg, Stewart and Bliss) have been approved for single senior Soldiers (SSG and above including officers). -- This program includes a total of 1,396 1 bedroom/1 bath and 2- bedroom/2-bath apartments (total of 1,804 accommodations/bedrooms). • Warrior Transition Barracks -- SRM Funding to support Warrior Transition interim barracks funded $162 Million in FY07 and $93 Million in FY08 to support 41 installations world-wide. -- Provides healing environmental campuses for Warrior Transition Units. Army Lodging • Army Lodging operates at 78 locations throughout the U.S, Europe and the Pacific. Over 19,000 guest rooms offer accommodations complete with standard amenities and services comparable to mid-priced commercial hotels. Army Lodging Wellness Program • A central strategy to upgrade Army Lodging infrastructure based upon professional marketing and architectural assessments for all Lodging operations. Projects are executed according to approved standards with detailed room designs to meet short and long term Temporary Duty requirements as well as the needs of Families traveling in connection with Permanent Change of Station moves. • Total new construction investment $345M with an additional investment of $76M in building renovation projects. • Program focus since FY06 has been on overseas requirements in response to the pending implementation of the Privatization Army Lodging initiative at US locations. Lodging Success Program • The Army contracts with commercial hotels for rooms at or below local per diem rates to accommodate official travelers in areas where official travel demand exceeds available installation assets or where there is no installation lodging. The program ensures ensure quality hotels, standard force protection, and standard levels of service for official travelers. • The LSP was recently modified to meet demand by long term Reserve Component personnel in an extended Temporary Change of Station status. The Program provides Soldiers high quality fully furnished apartments complete with internet, phone and cable television services in locations convenient to duty stations. Talking Points/Script for Ensuring Excellence in Schools, Youth Services and Child Care The Army Family Covenant specifically notes Army Leadership's commitment to "ensuring excellence in schools, youth services, and child care." As can be seen (pointing to the "Making the Covenant a Reality" poster) the Army truly believes that the strength of our Soldiers comes from the strength of their Families. When Soldiers are deployed, we want them to be able to concentrate on their mission. We don't want them to worry about whether their children are being well taken care of. We want them to know: they are!!! As you can see, there were some very solid accomplishments that resulted from the Army providing funding to Child and Youth Programs last year. I'd like to focus on just a couple: Note: From the list, I would ordinarily select Deployment Cycle Support, Fee Reductions, and Construction and Quality Programs. Deployment Cycle Support: Army Family Covenant funding has allowed us to extend the operating hours of our child and youth programs beyond the normal duty day to meet the particular needs of the garrison. Likewise it has allowed us to provide more respite child care – increasing it from 5 hours per child per month to 16 hours per child per month. This has been one of our most well-received offerings – since when a Soldier is deployed, the 'stay behind spouse' becomes the equivalent of a single parent. Respite child care provides that spouse the opportunity to "get a break" from the kids and take care of personal business and appointments. Fee Reductions: Army Family Covenant funding has allowed us to eliminate the standard garrison registration fee for our Child and Youth Program. It has also allowed garrisons to reduce patron fees for using our various programs. In times when money is tight, those fee reductions have also been greatly appreciated. Construction: Army Child and Youth Programs have entered one of the most intensive building periods in its history. Twenty-two Child Development Centers were funded last year as recognition that the Army must have quality facilities to meet our needs. As you can see with what is planned for the out-years in both Child Care and Youth Centers, we know we must grow. Quality Programs: We are especially proud that we continue to deliver quality child and youth programs as demonstrated by the fact that our facilities are annually certified by the Department of Defense as to health and safety requirements … but, even more importantly, more than 95% of our CDCs and School Age Programs have been nationally accredited by external professional organizations which require compliance to exacting program standards. I should point out that the average accreditation rate for civilian child care centers is about 10%. Last point would lead into my closing: "And that's how we know we are delivering on the Covenant's promise of 'excellence' in our child and youth programs." Talking Points/Script for Expanding Education and Employment Opportunities for Family Members Employment Readiness Program (ERP) The Army recognizes the importance of a spouse's satisfaction with Army life. Since spouse support is tied to spouse perception of quality of life issues – including financial well-being and the spouse's ability to realize personal and professional goals – spouse employment emerges as a major determining factor in the retention of high quality military personnel. Professional Job Search Trainers help clients identify skills and assist during job searches but do not provide jobs. They provide access to valuable references on the national job market and offer assistance in completing job applications and letters. Employment services are available to all Army components regardless of location. Army Spouse Employment Partnership (ASEP) • ASEP Partners sign a Statement of Support with the Secretary of the Army. • The Army Spouse Employment Partnership (ASEP) is a self-sustaining and expanding partnership that is mutually beneficial to the Army and Corporate America. The partnership provides Army spouses the opportunity to attain financial security and achieve employment goals through career mobility and enhanced employment options. Corporate Partners are provided the capability to tap into a readily available, diverse and talented pool of candidates. • Employment Readiness Program Managers work closely with our ASEP Partners to help employ our military spouses. Not just our partners on the National level, but also business partners on the Regional and Local levels. Military Spouse Job Search website (MSJS) Where military spouses are encouraged to post their resumes and where ASEP Partners and military friendly employers post their job vacancies. Also, MyArmyLifeToo (MALT). A site where military spouses can find out more about the ASEP Partners, and find out where job fairs are being held and read up on the latest employment happenings. Career Advancement Account (CAA) DOD and DOL initiative started in 2007. Currently located at 18 military installations, 5 of which are Army: Colorado (Fort Carson); Georgia (Fort Benning); Hawaii (Schofield Barracks) North Carolina (Fort Bragg) and Washington State (Fort Lewis). Qualified spouses are provided with $3,000 for continued education or certification the first year and if needed, $3,000 for the second year. To find out more about the CAA, go to MyArmyLifeToo (MALT); Milspouse.org, or ask your Employment Readiness Program Manger. Talking Points/Script for Recreation and Quality of Life Expanding recreation programs by adapting/increasing facility hours of operation to meet customer demand, partnering with Youth Services & Child Care to increase recreational/instructional opportunities (learn-to programs in outdoor recreation (hiking, canoeing, fishing, etc)) for our youth, on site child care (fitness centers) and delivering non –facility based programs to our customers rather than making them come to us (programs in housing areas, parks etc). We're expanding access to Library programs by offering services through the General Library integrated System (GLIS). GLIS is a web based service that allows anyone with an AKO account to access Library services electronically via the internet and we're shipping books not only to Libraries but to, deployed units, ACS offices, SFACs, and active duty FRGs Deployed Support: We have 12 deployed MWR personnel on the ground in Iraq serving Soldiers; deployed professionals serve 179 days. These individuals work, eat & sleep under the same conditions as the Soldiers and their primary function is to develop and conduct fitness, sports and recreation programs for the troops during their off-duty time. Next rotation is scheduled for Aug/Sep 08. Interested MWR personnel should contact Joe Pettoni at 703-681-7226 or email firstname.lastname@example.com Soldiers have received the following: - Small Unit Recreation Kits (sports equipment and recreational games) - Electronic Game Kits (play-station II, X-box) - Video Messenger Kits (Video camera, DVD-VCR visual display for recording messages and reading children's books to mail home) - Theater-in-a-Box (large screen, DVD/Video Player, projection unit, etc.) - Paperback book Kits - Playaway Kits (Self-contained audio books no larger than an iPod) - Service Level Kits (basic fitness, sports, and recreation equipment for Battalion sized elements) Internet cafes In conjunction with our World Class Athlete Program we've introduced a Sports Program for Wounded Warriors - Provides a goal oriented sports program for physically disable Soldiers who are allowed to remain on Active Duty. Program is designed to provide opportunities for physically disable Soldiers to remain physically active and pursue their athletic dreams. For additional information on the application process or the program in general please visit the web site at www.armywcap.com Inclusive recreation programs are being developed to accommodate all levels of abilities. The Army in conjunction with Penn State University developed a training program for our employees on inclusive recreation. The training for recreation staff will be taught by Penn State starting in the 1st qtr 09 Our Army BOSS program is designed to be the collective voice for single Soldiers through the chain of command. Garrison BOSS programs are playing an ever increasing role in supporting deployed units across the Army. The program concentrates on improving leisure and recreation opportunities for Soldiers and community service projects within the local community to improve Quality of Life for every member of the Military community. Soldiers interested in participating in BOSS programs should contact their local MWR POC or contact us via email at email@example.com Through our Army Outdoor Recreation program centers, we are training Soldiers in high adventure skills. The premise is that when such programs are offered to Soldiers in a supervised and safety-conscious environment, they serve as a stimulating alternative to other self-destructive behaviors. We are providing high adventure programs as safer, supervised alternatives: rock climbing, mountain biking, white-water rafting, paintball, and scuba. For additional information please contact your local outdoor recreation program manager or email firstname.lastname@example.com Through our entertainment programs we arrange live entertainment events at army garrisons. Intent is to provide a recreational outlet for returning Soldiers and families of deployed units and celebrate as a community the return to some semblance of normality. Additionally we provide entertainment "for the Soldier by the Soldier from April – Oct 2008, The US Army Soldiers Show will perform over 100 time at 60 locations (CONUS and Germany) and our USA Express and 5-6 piece Soldier band will tour the CENTCOM AOR and perform for our deployed forces We are standardizing and increasing the quality of our strength and cardio exercise equipment across the Army. Exercise programs prepare the body for the physical stress of the deployed environment and serve as stress relievers for returning Soldiers and families of deployed units. We centrally procure heavy use, commercial grade equipment for all our facilities. A Soldier/Family can move from location to location, walk into any fitness facility and safely use the equipment.

Product description
Lillie's papa believed in freedom-for him, his family, and all the slaves on the Greenfog plantation. So when the Confederate Army promised freedom to the family of every slave who served in the Civil War-whether they came home or not-Lillie's papa decided he had to take the chance. But when Lillie's family got the news that her papa was killed, they weren't freed. The army claimed that Lillie's papa was a thief. Lillie knew that couldn't be true! Even worse, the master started making plans to sell off Lillie's little brother, Plato. With the help of an old slave, Bett, who bakes bread that bends time, Lillie travels to the battle during which her father died to find out the true story. Using a little magic of her own, Lillie rights a few wrongs and buys her family their freedom. This is a beautiful tale filled with magic and hope and love.

Originally written on The Sports Bank | Last updated 6/14/12
Derrick Rose. Tyreke Evans. John Wall. Brandon Knight. The lineage of John Calipari-coached point guards is beyond impressive. That tradition continues with McDonald's All-American and one-and-done Marquis Teague from Kentucky. Teague is one of six players from Lexington at the NBA Combine this year. He was joined by Anthony Davis, MMA co-MVP Michael Gilchrist, Terrence Jones, sharpshooter Doron Lamb and versatile wing Darius Miller. Because of the team he played on, Teague has gotten a bit overlooked by NBA scouts. "Playing with Anthony Davis, he gets a lot of attention cuz he's so dominating. And Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, it's hard to show as much," Teague said at NBA Combine media day (This is a Paul M. Banks and David Kay collaboration.) A consensus top ten recruit, Teague was considered by most as the top point guard in the 2011 class. So it is only fitting the Indianapolis native chose Kentucky, where he won a national title, as his college destination over Kansas, Purdu...

Godsmack continues to build up to the August 5 release of its sixth studio album, 1000HP, with the fourth of five planned webisodes about the making of the album.
This entry focuses on producer Dave Fortman's work on the album; Fortman also helmed Godsmack's last album, "Oracle," in 2010, and frontman Sully Erna tells us Fortman is a perfect producer for the band:
"He's a great guy. He's got a really good head for melody and he's really funny and he's super easy to work with and he's a great sound engineer. I know he's a good producer, but he's really, really great at mixing the knobs; he can sonically make a record sound so good and tight and fresh, and I love that about him."
1000HP is currently streaming on iTunes in advance of its on-sale date.
Godsmack will be hitting the road to headline this year's Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival tour, which kicks off August 15 in suburban Detroit, with Canadian dates to follow after the trek wraps.
