Continue the antibiotic
Pain medicine: For ear pain or fever above 102° F (39° C), give acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol) OR ibuprofen as needed. (See dosage table).
Local cold: Apply a cold pack or a cold wet washcloth to outer ear for 20 minutes to reduce pain while medicine takes effect (Note: Some children prefer local heat for 20 minutes) (Caution: Hot or cold pack applied too long could cause burn or frostbite.)
Eardrops: 3 drops of prescription eardrops or olive oil drops will usually relieve pain not helped by pain medicine. If your child has ear tubes or a hole in the eardrum, don't use them.
Contagiousness: Your child can return to school or child care when feeling better and any fever is gone. Ear infections are not contagious.
Expected course: If you give your child the antibiotic as directed, the fever should be gone by 2 days (48 hours). The earache should be improved by 2 days and gone by 3 days (72 hours).
Ear discharge
Call your doctor if
Temporary hearing loss
Talking with your child
Reassurance: Some children have recurrent ear infections. If your child has lots of ear infections, here are some ways to prevent future ones.
Avoid tobacco smoke: Protect your child from tobacco smoke because it increases the frequency and severity of ear infections. Be sure no one smokes in your home or at child care.
Avoid excessive colds
Avoid bottle-propping
Get all recommended immunizations: The pneumococcal vaccine and the flu vaccine will protect your child from serious diseases and some ear infections.
Control allergies: If your infant has a continuously runny nose, consider allergy as a contributing factor to the ear infections. If your child has other allergies such as eczema, your child's doctor can check for a milk protein or soy protein allergy.
Check the adenoids: If your toddler snores every night or breathes through his mouth, he may have large adenoids. Large adenoids can contribute to ear infections. Talk to your child's doctor about this.

A fearful disease afflicts Corpus Christi
What's the old aphorism? "If I can't have it, then you can't have it either." The Christmas Day letter to the editor -- "Courage to change" -- indicates the ever-present ineptness and greed of the Corpus Christi business community.
Business owners -- large and small, in-town and out-of-town, owners alike, plus many others who possess the rabid foot-in-mouth disease "ego-itis" -- are draining our community of the vital development hormones needed for a positive endorsement of growth.
"Ego-itis," by the way, is a universal brain and heart disease with symptoms commonly expressed by "if I can't be successful, then I won't let you be successful either."
Today, we are experiencing a costly epidemic of this fearful disease here in Corpus Christi.
When members of the business community actually come out and say we don't want any more businesses, they are, in fact, endorsing a "no growth" attitude which leads to economic stagnation and the stunting of healthy competition.
Healthy competition includes the coming and going of businesses. Some businesses are destined to leave, fall apart, and/or go bankrupt. Others will thrive, expand, and multiply. But in a free-enterprise system the need for products or services should determine the success of a particular business, not the greed mentality of "ego-itis."
Over the past 40 years of owning a small architectural business here, I have found that when I have to compete for a project and I am successful, the owner/client and the community are both winners. Now if I'm not successful and another local firm is, then again the owner/client and community are still winners.
The destructive mentality that "if I can't be successful, then I won't let you be successful either" has to cease.
If we're truly going to experience change in the economic landscape and become a vibrant, visionary city, our business community and Chamber of Commerce needs to positively endorse new business opportunities even though they may come with the threat of competition and -- perish the thought -- receive monetary incentives from local government. Those existing business being threatened will then have three choices: remain status quo; develop a new competitive identity; or fold.
It's amusing how some try to make it appear that there's insufficient monetary power in Corpus Christi to make competition work. I'm not promoting a build-it-and-they-will-come scenario, but rather a return to a healthy free-enterprise setting. In this setting, the good, well-managed, and progressive business will survive and expand no matter how many buyers or sellers there are.
But the introverted and old-guard businesses not willing to change and compete will hang on for a while and then fold. Unfortunately, Corpus Christi is plagued with many such old-guard businesses that operate in a fear-driven mode that is stunting a healthy economic growth. And that sidetracks a progressive economy.
The unhealthy disease of "ego-itis" has severely retarded our ability to move forward and grow out of fear that it will take something away from me and I can't be profitable. Notice the "me" and "I" in that last sentence. How about, "a competitor will add to my success and we both will be profitable?" A change in mind-set and a renewed determination to be competitive will revitalize our local economy and trigger real, substantial economic growth in our community.
Let's free ourselves of the old mentality -- "if I can't be successful, then I won't let you be successful either" -- and diligently seek to rebuild our attitude for dynamic economic growth and let virtuous competition become a healthy practice in the Corpus Christi business arena. Now the question is: "Do we do, or do we die?" Visionary action and civic leadership is needed in 2008 for the health of our South Texas economy and, more important, for our next generation.
Johnny Cotten is a Corpus Christi architect.

Looking for something genuine!
So about me...oh boy...I graduated from college in May of 2007 with a BA in Electronic Media, Audio Production. After college ran sound on tour for a couple years. I now work for a school district on the east side as their Apple Systems Integrator. Grew up most my life in ohio but was born in California. I love to do just about anything...I do enjoy the great outdoors, whether its a walk in the park or attempting to summit some mountain. Used to water ski competitively during college in the area of slalom, but now just have fun with it. There's so many amazing things to experience in life...it really is an adventure, so I think we should embrace each moment! As far as who i would like to meet...to me someone who shares that communication is the most intimate thing you can do in a relationship! Everything pretty much stems from that! I think people can get so caught up in the physical and other parts of the relationship, that they lose the communication, meaning they lose the heart! Yeah there is a physical attractiveness, but that should just be a bonus to the true beauty deep inside...because in 10-20 years down the road, we aren't gonna look the same lol
Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Performing arts , Playing sports , Religion/Spiritual , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports

Spend the Night in an Igloo
For a thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime experience, you can't beat the Kakslauttanen Hotel and Igloo Village in the Finnish Laplands, well within the Arctic Circle. It ain't cheap. It ain't convenient. But you'll definitely get close as you huddle for warmth.
Each igloo contains a bed made of snow draped with blankets and reindeer hides. Even when the mercury dips below -40 degrees F outside, the igloos keep couples toasty at around 6 to 8 degrees F as they sip locally distilled Finlandia vodka and watch the aurora borealis light up the night. The Finns guarantee that any child conceived under the northern lights (best viewed September to April) will be male.
Or build an igloo in your yard next time it snows. It's nearly as fun.

Patriarchal Greek New Testament (PATr)
by Patriarchal Press of Constantinople•
Patriarchal Press of Constantinople 1912
The Patriarchal Greek New Testament (PATr) was published by the Patriarchal Press of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople on February 22, 1904. It was published as: The New Testament, Approved by the Great Church of Christ, with the intention of being the most authoritative text of the Greek New Testament available. As more critical or eclectic editions of the NT became the norm by the nineteenth century (replacing the Byzantine Text), the Patriarchate of Constantinople assembled a committee of scholars for the purposes of studying various manuscripts of the NT at both Constantinople and Mount Athos. Their goal was to provide "the best reconstruction of the most ancient text of ecclesiastical tradition and, more specifically, of the Church of Constantinople" (from the preface to the 1904 text). The manuscripts they selected were from the ninth to the sixteenth centuries, and were largely from lectionaries (that is, from texts that were actually used in the worship of the Church). After the Patriarchal Greek New Testament's initial publication in 1904, Professor Vasileios Antoniades of the Theological School of Chalki made some minor corrections to the text in 1912.
The morphology tagging in this edition of the Patriarchal Greek New Testament, prepared by Logos Bible Software, integrates with other resources tagged with the Logos morphology, making it possible to perform searches across numerous morphologically tagged texts such as the Septuagint, Pseudepigrapha, Apostolic Fathers, Philo, and Josephus. This allows for ease of comparison in examining the usage of various grammatical and morphological constructions across a variety of authors and Greek texts.
Looking for a translation of this text in English? The Eastern/Greek Orthodox Bible: New Testament is also available.

- anthropogenic-mediated migration;

- Salmo salar
This study focuses on temporal changes in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations from the vulnerable periphery of the species range (northern Spain). Using microsatellite markers to assess population structuring and introgression of exogenous genes in four different temporal samples collected across 20 years, we have determined the relative weights of climate and stocking practices in shaping contemporary regional population genetic patterns. Climate, represented by the North Atlantic Oscillation Index, was identified as the main factor for determining the level of population genetic differentiation. Populations within the region have become homogenized through gene flow enhanced by straying of adult salmon from natal rivers and subsequent interchange of genes among rivers due to warmer temperatures. At the same time, and in line with documented changes in stock transfer strategies, evidence of genetic introgression from past stock transfers has decreased throughout the study period, becoming a secondary factor in erasing population structuring. The ability to disentangle the effects of climatic changes and anthropogenic factors (fisheries management practices) is essential for effective long-term conservation of this iconic species. We emphasize the importance of evaluating all factors which may be linked to stocking practices in vulnerable species, particularly those sensitive to climate change.

Just Jane
The final run of the night and props fully spinning, a glorious sight and more importantly sound from those Merlin engines.
The final run of the night and props fully spinning, a glorious sight and more importantly sound from those Merlin engines.
Scored 16/20 in BCC POTY 2015 R1 - Not New.
Fiery Start
The second start of the evening in three stages composited together to show the fire coming from engines 1 and 4 during the start-up. Engine 1 had to have two attempts to start this time.
Crew Rest
Discussions ongoing leant against the undercarriage of the Lancaster.
Navigation Brief
Crew working in front of the Lanc and around the bombs discussing the routing.
With the first run completed the crew came out and prepared for the second run of the evening. Atmospheric lighting on this shot shows the cockpit up really well.
First run complete, the Lancaster sits on the pan ready for further action as the moon rises high and lights her back.
Head On
Looking almost directly at the nose of the Lancaster during the first run.
First Run
The first run of the Lanc in the last rays of light, mist creeping behind the aircraft. Blue flame can be seen from the exhausts as the Merlin engines spit and roar majestically in front of us.
Sunset and Mist
A small amount of mist creeps across the airfield towards the Lancaster as the sky turnes from day to night.
The big Merline Engines rest as the sun sets on the Lancaster Just Jane. A distinctive silhouette if ever I saw one.
A Douglas C47 sits in the hangar at East Kirkby, I love these old aircraft - always have.
A crew car sits on the Apron by Just Jane as the aircraft is prepared.
Crew Briefings
Three members of the crew sit around the port undercarriage briefing at sunset.
The Crew
The actors were perfectly dressed and very much looked the part all evening, some had apparently travelled from the south coast to be there for the evening.
Two pilots in discussion around Just Jane in the evening sunlight.
Evening Light
With the wet weather moving off to the east the evening sun bathes Lancaster Just Jane in a wonderful light.
Front Clearing
The weather on Saturday was horrible, but at around 4pm the front moved away to the east and the sun came out. The trailing edge of the front is clearly visible behind the Lancaster.
A Pipe and a Smile
One of the actors wearing his lifejacket and uniform had this pipe with him all evening.
Low and Fast
One of the final passes of Spitfire IX MH434 as Paul Bonhomme brings her in low and fast for a final run around the pylons and over the Extra and MX2 parked on taxiway delta. I've had Spitfire's do flyby's for the eight years I've been controlling at Cranfield, but never like we saw today. Fantastic.
How Close?!
The final flight of the day saw the Spitfire in formation with the Extra and the MX2, zooming around and through the pylons. I've not seen aircraft park at Cranfield this close, let along fly past at over 100mph. Spine tingling.
Filming the Landing
The FlyingTV helicopter hovers alongside the runway as the Spitfire lands on 03.
Fast and Low
Another fast and low pass over the runway and around the pylons for the promotional filming.
...and the Spitfire turns around the helicopter at 2000ft above the airfield. Incredible flying skills from both aircraft.
The Spitfire about to climb out of the picture on the first sortie, aiming at the R44 cameraship...

The Spitfire taxies past the tower for the first of three sorties. Not in picture and somewhat of a shock was an R44 camera ship which hovered along the taxiway above/beside the Spitfire - wasn't expecting that!
Nigel Lamb flew the second sortie in the Spitfire and made some incredibly low passes over the airfield including some loops and rolls.
Last Glows of Daylight
The sun has set on the Shard and More London Place, with just a faint glow of Orange above London Bridge to the right of the shot.

The Driver
The train approaches the platform from the north and the driver peers grimily out of the train cab looking backwards.
Entered into the 101st Southampton International Exhibition (Open Digital category) where it scored 12/15 and was accepted.
Scored 20/20 in the BCC POTY 2014 Round 3 - Character.
Cold War lining up
XS458 entering Runway 03 on the threshold for the first run of the day.
Showing a different side
The Lightning has two liveries - one on each side. Taxiing back we got a better look at the blue side with the Squadron badges along the fuselage.
Chute Deployed
Reheat off before the intersection, chute deployed just beyond. Good chute, the aircraft would come to a stop just about Bravo.
Reheat on
The Lightning is accelerating swiftly along Runway 03 with a blast of reheat for good measure.
Sunset at Pitstone
The Pitstone Windmill is believed to be the oldest windmill in the British Isles, and is dated 1627. Its working career was ended in the Great Storm of 1902, and is now maintained by the National Trust. Sunset tonight was spectacular with this as the foreground, the camera didn't quite do the colours in the sky justice.

Question: How Many Individual Servings Are There In A #10 Can Of Vegetables?
February 15, 2010
Permalink Anonymous
February 15, 2010
February 15, 2010
A #10 can contains approximately 13 cups of product. The recommended serving is 1 cup of green leafy vegetables or 1/2 cup of other vegetables. So, if you have a can of spinach, there would be 13 servings. If you had a can of corn, there would be 26 servings.
Permalink Denise Stange

1 cup of leafy green serving refers to fresh, not canned greens. Canned spinach would count as a canned vegetable, which has the serving size of 1/2 cup.

Constantia (typeface)
|John Hudson [1]
Constantia is a serif typeface designed by John Hudson and commissioned by Microsoft. It is a transitional serif design, influenced by Eric Gill's Perpetua design. Development of the typeface began in 2003 and it was released in 2006.
Constantia is part of the ClearType Font Collection, a suite of fonts from various designers released with Windows Vista. All start with the letter C to reflect that they were designed to work well with Microsoft's ClearType text rendering system, a text rendering engine designed to make text clearer to read on LCD monitors. The other fonts in the suite are Calibri, Cambria, Candara, Consolas and Corbel.
Constantia was designed for either print or on-screen uses. Numerals are text figures by default, as seen on the sample image; the font also includes lining figures as an alternate style. Reviewing it for the website Typographica, Raph Levien described it as likely to be "everyone's favourite face [in the suite]...a highly readable Roman font departing only slightly from the classical model, [but] it still manages to be fresh and new. It takes some inspiration from Perpetua and Felicity...but the triangular serifs bring to mind a chisel, and the font has enough calligraphic flavor to recall Palatino."[2]
Writing in 2011, Hudson commented, "I actually don't like the name Constantia very much, and every time I see the sea birds on the dock while I'm waiting for the ferry I wish I'd thought to call it Cormorant."[3]
It is also distributed with various free Office viewers,[4][5][6] the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack[7] and the Open XML File Format Converter for Mac.[8]

Yes, I was disgusted by the comments, but by attacking the situation with guns blazing and sending my bullets, which could possibly cause psychological pain, the way of the culprits, I decided in that instant that two wrongs made a right.
Did two wrongs make a right?
I don't know, which means I didn't pause to consider whether those actions warranted my response. Sometimes we do find ourselves in situations, during which we make split-second decisions that, when analyzed on their own, could be labeled a wrong, but this was not one of those moments. I had ample time to consider what I was writing, the literary technique I chose to employ and whether I was stepping all over my own ideals, and if so, was I warranted in doing so.
I failed to do that.
Now, back to the second point, I do want to again make clear that I sincerely apologize if any innocent individuals who happen to fall under the Republican banner felt I despised them or considered them aliens without a brain, suddenly lumped into the bucket with the individuals I was choosing to shine a light on. I would never want to do that, and in fact would hope that if I encounter such individuals in public they mention how I made them feel so I can offer a more personal apology.
My children inspire me to hope, fight and dream of a better, more compassionate world.
I need to make sure I model for them the behavior I believe would help make that world possible, and that is not by hurting others with my actions.

"Great Place to Race" from some of our visitors!
This is a great time in a well organized facility. The carts are fast and fun. Easy walk from City Center/Vdara. Would go back for sure the next time we are in Vegas. Best to call ahead rather than drop in. Occasionally they get busy with booked parties. Way more bang for your buck than shelling out $1000 at the LV Motor Speedway for a few laps in a Vette or something.
You must view a training film first, because these are very high speed carts. A guaranteed thrill if you like this sort of thing. By the time you finish your laps, you'll feel like you've working out at the gym. Very exciting and a great rush. ;lkHave at it!Fast Lap Indoor Kart Racing was amazing. The staff was extremely friendly, and they ensured that my family and I had the best time possible. We especially enjoyed the fact that the karts were gas powered, it allowed to us to get the whole real racing experience. We had a blast and I would definitely recommend visiting Fast Lap on your vacation.
I went with my 16 year old niece. She has her drivers license. I'm in my mid-50's, and, after one race, realized I have absolutely "aged out" of this kind of thing. Very hard, hot, uncomfortable, and physically draining. This is not the same as going to a track and "racing" a sports car- this is a real down-and-dirty mix-it-up with a bunch of other drivers going as fast as they can, willing to pass you on the right or left, and bump you if they have to. It seems very sketchy, with regards to safety- we saw a kid with flip-flops allowed to race, his essentially bare feet just inches from the completely exposed tires. Why more folks are not hurt here is a mystery to me. So why give it a good rating? My niece LOVED it! I sat out the other races, took photos of her, while she totally smoked the guys and men trying very hard to beat her. So for kids of driving age, say, from 16 to 22, this place is great.
Just one major tip: bring your own water, and plenty of it. They don't even have a water fountain here- instead charging $3 or so for a bottle from a vending machine. And, did I mention it is not air-conditioned? Really, really hot in there.
Jeff Dunham Visit's Fast Lap Las Vegas
Jeff stopped by for our very popular "Race and Shoot" with 11 of his friends. They all had a blast and said they would return soon! If you want to book an event for family, friends or company events give us a call at 702-736-8113 opt3 and speak with one of our staff.

Red Dawn:
went to a sneak peek of this and I haven't seen the original since the early 90's on old VHS. It wasn't one of those sacred to me 80's movies so my recollection on it was vague with just the main beats I recalled. So I set out to gauge this film on it's own merit. Overall I found it enjoyable. There is the one selfish teen who it takes the entire movie to realize bigger things are at stake. I even managed to not dislike him so much by the end. However, it's the end of the film that makes place this as a B- instead of a B+/A- grade. Again, maybe the original ends similarly but I don't like the end. After the struggle and conflict I need more solid info than the point it ends that things are looking up. If one has become a fan of Chris Hemsworth since he became leading man material then I think you'll like this film for him if nothing else.
Dracula (1979):
This version based on Bram Stokers book stars Frank Langella as Dracula and Donald Pleasance as Dr. Seward. I really liked this take and enjoy the work of both men. I found the f/x of the day to be adequate. The worst was when Dracula would become a bat and it was clearly "rubber bat on a wire" but it was one of the better attempts. I felt the story flowed well and ended on a good cliffhanger.
Dracula (2006):
This is Masterpiece Theater's take on the novel and I found it a bit choppy. Probably due to screenplay but partly budget as well as the audience it was playing to(general) by airing on PBS. While adding the '79 version I saw this one and it said starring Sophia Myles(who I knew from Underworld) and decided to go with a double feature of the Count. Here Sophia plays Lucy and again due to being constrained some of the more iconic scenes were not only trimmed but cut out. The acting was good which only adds to the woe of the film's constraint. The actress playing Mina(Stephanie Leonidas) I thought brought a great dual sense of trepidation and strength to her role. The make up for Dracula was passable and may be my one complaint outside the budget/editing ones I listed already.
The style and method with which each version chose to emphasis, or not, made me aware that it's time I reread the book. The most iconic film version I've seen repeatedly is the '92 version with Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder and Keanu Reeves so I'd compare both off of this film and what moments it emphasized. Time to pull this off the shelf at some point and give it a reread.

On This Day in History - 1938: The London & North East Railways' locomotive 'Mallard' breaks the world rail speed record by travelling at 126mph
The report into the Newton collision.
This document was published in November 1992 by Health and Safety Executive.
It was written by Health and Safety Executive.
This item is linked to the Accident at Newton on 21st July 1991
The original document format was Bound Booklet, and comprised 60 pages.

"The evening of Sunday 21 July 1991 was clear, dry and warm. Dusk was just falling when at 2156, the 2155 Newton to Glasgow train (number 2P55) driven by Driver Reginald McEwan, after leaving the Down platform at Newton Station, collided violently head-on with the 2055 Balloch to Motherwell train (2J66) driven by Driver David Scott, which was approaching Newton. The collision occurred at a combined speed of around 60 mile/h on the single track on the west side of the station...
This report...concludes that on the balance of probabilities, Signal M145, the platform starting signal, was showing a red aspect when it was passed by Driver McEwan's train; that Driver Scott's train was signalled to proceed into Newton Station; that in the particular circumstances and the time available it was in reality, if not in theory, impossible to expect Signalman Dillon both to recognise the indication of impending catastrophe on his signal panels and to send radio messages to the drivers in time for them to stop their trains; and that the integrity of the signalling system at Newton was not in doubt though serious questions arise as to its local reliability and manner of installation. The safety and reliability of Solid State Interlocking (SSI) systems in general, of which the Newton system is an example, were considered at length and are not regarded as compromised.
That three very serious accidents have occurred in the recent past at single-lead junctions cannot be ignored. Accepting that single-track working has been a feature of railway operations since they began, and can be safely signalled on the basis of long-established principles, this report questions the total reliance that BR has placed in some higher risk situations on drivers' behaviour in observing signals, when there is a very substantial body of evidence of the number of signals passed at danger each year. In some circumstances, such as those where single-lead junctions are entered by trains leaving platforms protected only by the platform starting signal, the risks of head-on collisions are significantly higher. The accidents at Bellgrove, Hyde and Newton were similar in this respect."

Now you put your ideas in the infospace by posting to a blog or to a mailing list. Of course the problem is that the reader must know which blogs and mailing lists match her interests. I subscribe to many feeds, blogs and lists but I am sure I don't see even a 0.1% of all the posts I would wish to read. Instead of posting your thoughts to a list, you should be able to just post it and rely on the ability of the global infospace to direct the reader to everything that match her interests.
The Bratz are now Baby Mommaz. Yes, the hooker-in-training dolls have children. Bratz are the main reason I do not keep a supply of bricks around the house, because everytime the commercials come on I wish to pitch something kiln-fired through the screen so hard it beans the toy exec who greenlighted these hootchie toys. The Baby Bratz are as bad as you can imagine: "Bottles with Bling."Insanity planet. What do you do when your kids get to the age where they see these things on TV, want them, ask for them, and chuck all manner of fits if they don't get them? Shouldn't the message underpinning the toys be socially responsible & positive even if the toys aren't?

"In this day and age of chronic housing shortage, if you do not maximise the use of a site, you are a negligent landlord and property owner. This is a long, narrow rectangular space which should not be wasted."via Mo's Musings and This is Local London.
there are two different axes which are important in describing British people's political views.Interesting to separate these things out this way. I, for instance, am an internationalist / rehabilitationist with centrist economic views, whatever that means...
The first and much more important axis descibe's people's views on crime and punishment, Europe, and other transnational issues including immigration and international law. This is an identifiably left-right axis, but it is not the traditional left-right scale of economic views.
The second axis, which is much less important is about economics — among other things. People who believe in free markets are also likely to support the war in Iraq and prefer an American to a European model of government. This too might be called left-right, but questions about international relations and other issues are mixed in with the economic issues.
Here are a baker's dozen of [lost architectural treasures] - all in Manhattan, which has suffered the greatest loss of architectural treasures - that are forever etched in the city's collective memory. All have disappeared since the demise of Penn Station, and most were subjects of controversy at the time of their destruction. They are just a sample of what has vanished.
Taken together, these lost buildings and rooms form a kind of ghost city, an island of memory that hovers above the real, evolving Manhattan. It is a shadow New York that once was and might have continued to be, had the economic and political forces that shape the city been different. It is also the only New York that is a perfect New York, for as Marcel Proust wrote in "Remembrance of Things Past," "the true paradises are the paradises we have lost..."
Here's the thing. Teri Hatcher isn't in the center of the picture, but she's in the center of the cover once you fold the picture. Anyway. Funny how TV drama needs real-life drama to keep us all interested, isn't it?
ABC News: NEW YORK Apr 5, 2005 — They may appear sultry and ready for summer on the May cover of Vanity Fair, but according to the magazine, the stars of ABC's "Desperate Housewives" were actually steaming angry.
Vanity Fair's cover proclaims: "You wouldn't believe what it took just to get this photo!" The article acknowledges that the poolside photo-shoot, in which the five women appear in different colored bathing suits, was manned by an ABC representative who was to make sure that certain demands were met including that Teri Hatcher didn't select her wardrobe first or appear in the center of any group photo.
"Whatever you do," the ABC rep, who wasn't identified by name, said when he arrived on the set, "do not let Teri go to wardrobe first."

Communitarian – 1
In cities with public transportation, a subculture of completely random people exists. There are neighborhoods of people; families, cliques and groups, housemates, coworkers, students, mysterious strangers. Most of these people do not interact with each other, and yet the train is a social network that connects people in a special way. It's my hope, through this series of short stories, to bring light to the tunnels below our feet, and discover the subculture that defines our cities.
I started riding the MBTA subway (a.k.a. "the T") in Boston when I was a freshman in college. For locals to that area, it was the Green Line B train. I got my first tour of the city on that train as a pre-frosh in orientation. Some of the students I was with had never been to Boston, let alone the United States. It was a thrilling experience for all of us. Things seemed a lot bigger back then.
The trains looked old and heavily used. There was a "subway" smell of burnt rubber and hot metal that resonated. The sound of the electric current pushing the train forward was unique, almost unearthly. I took it all in as we got on the train like wandering tourists. People of all makes and sizes were already there, watching us enter the train with cautious yet indifferent eyes. The girls looked at the guys, and the guys looked at the girls.
Our orientation guide took us to Newbury Street for ice cream at J.P. Licks. I wandered off to a small bistro down the street with a guy I got chummy with that first day. That friendship was short-lived; we took different programs at school, and rarely saw each other after that.
The T fare used to be tokens before it changed to electronic cards and paper tickets. I remember the sound tokens made when dropped on the ground, like quarters on brick stone, echoing. Our guide gave us tokens that time around, but a monthly pass was essential later on to see every inch of Boston. And I would learn over the next few years, every inch of the city was different, and worth exploring.
Within two weeks, I was comfortable riding the T.

San Bernardino, CA
Before I knew it, I was at the train station in San Bernardino, and Barnhart, my host out there, was ten minutes away with his girlfriend, Gigi. "Don't go exploring, you're in gang territory," says Gigi over Barnhart. "Gang territory?" (It kind of felt like a shady place to stick around.) "Yeah, you know, the Bloods and the Crypts do business out there. Don't wear anything red." I look down at my red plaid shirt, and I start to panic. "I'm wearing red. Come find me, now." Gigi takes the phone and says, "Get yourself inside somewhere. We're on our way," and before the line cuts off, I hear her say "shit" under her breath.
I waited at the Doughnut King nearby. The nice Asian shop owner gave me some extra doughnuts with my egg, ham, and cheese sandwich order. It was terrible. I picked at it enough to get my fill just as Barnhart and Gigi arrived. I was so glad to be leaving that area; some kids were loitering outside the shop, giving me funny looks. Barnhart was driving a big white truck, holding a 64-ounce cup of diet coke from Circle K. We had a quick hug and shake, and I threw my bags in the backseat. Barnhart had a ruffled look about him, as if hadn't slept much lately.
Barnhart used to work in real estate back east, but was originally from California. After a two-month solo adventure in Cambodia that almost got him arrested and killed, he returned home to begin more lucrative ventures. He started a delivery business that covers most of the area, and that has been his most recent passion project. For as long as I've known him, he has always worn Berkenstock sandals, in every occasion. Even in the midst of winter, he'd wear those sandals.
The drive was comical. Barnhart kept the 64-ounce cup of diet coke in his lap, and while driving with his left hand, he played the drums with a bound bundle of chopsticks in his right. The radio was not on, but still he kept a beat while asking me how things were going. The conversation was nice enough. On occasion he would drift into a separate conversation with Gigi, who sat in the back. The highway drive was dangerous like this, but I didn't mind. My eyes were too busy looking out at the mountains ahead.

San Bernardino, CA
I feel a cold coming on. The lack of sleep, water, and nutrition is catching up with me. The last couple weeks have kept my body in a state of fast-moving culture shock, and at last, I'm starting to crack under the pressure. Maybe it's the air. I was told by a couple people on the train that LA's pollution can make people sick. It didn't take long for the microbial bacteria to find another sucker to infect. I felt it give me a sore throat. I tried drinking lots of water while I was on the Metrolink to San Bernardino, but I was distracted by the need to capture the sights I saw. It was not always pleasant to see the transformation.
Mountainous valleys are surrounded by wispy clouds. Lots are full of disassembled cars, parts, steel girders and rusting industrial leftovers. There are graveyards full of junk. Neighborhoods without end are full of track homes and swimming pools. Some of them are crystal clean, and others are murky, green, or bone dry. A lot of good and bad graffiti decorate the walls surrounding these track home neighborhoods. A small playground sandlot is in the middle of a dangerous area. A storage lot the size of several football fields holds a closet full of someone's life. So monotonous.
A patio table and umbrella rest between two cars in a warehouse parking lot… A Zen rock garden rests next to basketball courts, next to an outdoor hockey rink, next to tennis courts, next to an open field, next to a parking lot, next to a gas station, next to a gentlemen's club… A man stands around a barrel bonfire, under a tree, surrounded by children's toys. A junkyard has a special hanger meant solely for car bumpers. A few first-generation trees remain in an empty plot of land. A dead bird cooks on the ceramic tiles of a Spanish shingle roof. I can stare at the sun because the clouds cover it just enough to look like a full moon in a clear night sky.

El Paso, TX
I don't think my uncle wanted me to leave. I think he would have benefitted greatly if I stayed a couple months and helped him cope with loss, and possibly expand his business. I'm confident that my brief stay showed him that he has family that loves him in more places than one, and that he's capable of so much as a bachelor. The sexual element of his freedom is not important; the prestige of independent success is worth fighting for. Again, he will do what he must to reconnect with his family. I'm but a catalyst in a post-divorce return to society, and he welcomed the gift of my presence as much as I welcomed all the things he taught me. Like a ripple effect in a great body of water, he and I made motions that would have never occurred if I didn't take this journey. The need for our entire family to reconnect has never been more paramount. I left around 5pm, and ate a home-made burrito as the sun went down over New Mexico.
On the Train – 15
El Paso, TX
My uncle was well enough to work while I drove around El Paso. He suggested the main strip by UTEP, the University of Texas, El Paso. I took the CR-V (he bought two identical models, one for him, one for his ex-wife) on a brief jaunt through back roads that all looked the same. When I reached the UTEP district on North Mesa Drive, the advertising orgy was well underway. Franchise after franchise blocked my view of scenic panoramas. It jaded my experience because nobody seemed to care. The roads and parking lots were full of trucks and sport-utility vehicles and customized muscle cars and hot-wheels. The sidewalks had an occasional young professional or student couple visually swearing off consumer trends. Everything was Spanish; the shops, the colors, the street names, the murals, the music, the food, the fashion.
Kids here adopt a cultural vibe from Mexico, and while their families try to inherit the American Dream, they rebel with tattoos and piercings in tattered clothes and vibrant tributes to gang mentality. In this way, they are breaking the barriers, much like the physical barriers a few miles away. No matter where you go, people will talk about the battles against normalcy while drinking coffee from Starbucks. The great battle of El Paso is advertising your oasis in the desert. If it weren't for that beautiful Thunderbird mountain with its beautiful colors watching over the valley below, I would lose myself in the expansive pavement terrain of suburban sprawl.
On the Train – 14
El Paso, TX
El Paso is an expansive suburban sprawl. Between mountains and valleys are ubiquitous mini mansions built with palm wood, stone, and red clay. The opportunity for unique, independent, interior design is lost in the faceless repetition of homes. Lawns with burnt-yellow grass are redeemed by epic Italian pines that seem anything but indigenous. Everything is spaced out and requires transportation. The roads are unrestricted playgrounds for billboard signage. Driving down I-10, there are as many ads on the highway as there are on the internet. Couple that with aggressive drivers who drink while driving, and I'm not surprised to hear how high the driver-fatality rate is.
But that's just El Paso and its massive roads. The heart of my experience here belongs to my uncle. While we drive, observe the scene, and see the evolution of his achievements, he is coming to terms with divorce. He talks of mistakes that feel like opportunities left to wilt. Quotations from a former life begin to resonate with us, such as "nothing ventured, nothing gained," and I get the feeling he would give it all up to show his family how good a father he is. Instead, he now belongs to a community of bachelors who have a fringe-like influence on their children.
"You got to teach them how to shave," I tell him as we drive away from the park where his ex-wife and kids are hanging out with other single mothers and their kids. He and I brought them doughnuts from Krispy Kreme. Minutes out of the day belong to bonding experiences shared between him and his two young, impressionable sons. He doesn't blame his ex-wife. He blames himself. His work and his hobbies filled a void that family simply couldn't. That was before he realized how important family is. In the absence of love, he would likely say, there is a void. To fill a void, you need a vacuum.

MOBILE, Alabama - Ohio State wide receiver DeVier Posey was busy bouncing from couch to couch, from interview to interview at the official Senior Bowl hotel Tuesday night when a scout from an NFL team within easy driving distance of Columbus cut him off in mid stride, extended his hand and introduced himself. "I've seen you a lot," was Posey's initial response to the scout. "It's nice to meet you." Posey had lots of time at practice to watch and observe last fall, enough that he worried that the entire season and this week at the Senior Bowl might go on without him. He finally got back on the field in late November. A few weeks ago the call came extending the Senior Bowl invitation. And the "real" really nervous moments began. Posey brings fresh legs, wide eyes and some simple goals to this week's Senior Bowl festivities. He doesn't necessarily have to make up for the 10 games he lost to NCAA suspension in his senior season but he has to prove that, with a little polish, he'll ...

The Mathematics and Science Partnership Program (MSP)
supports the improvement of mathematics and science instruction and learning
through partnerships between school districts, institutions of higher
learning, ESDs and educational organizations. The MSP projects provide
high-quality, content–based professional learning for K-12 teachers to
enhance teacher content knowledge and instructional classroom practices.
The MSP program is funded through Title II, Part B of the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act. OSPI currently funds 10 MSP projects across the state.
All projects are key leaders in the state's CCSS-Math and NGSS implementation
Congratulations to the Cohort 7 (2015-2018) Mathematics and Science Partnership (MSP) Grant Projects
There was an overwhelming response to the Cohort 7 MSP Request for Proposals (RFP) with fourteen highly competitive proposals submitted. This made the selection process extremely challenging. Each proposal was independently and objectively scored by a team of 19 reviewers using the MSP RFP Scoring Rubric and went through two rounds of review—the First Review and the Second Review. During the First Review, the review panel discussed each project and shared comments generated during the review process. In the Second Review applicants presented their vision and proposed work plan. Following presentations, the review panel considered multiple factors, including: reviewer scores, comments, and recommendations; proposal components; strengths and areas of concern based on the presentations; and questions raised about the project to prioritize the final rankings in order to determine awards, pending availability of funding. Funding allowed for the awarding of seven three-year Cohort 7 MSP projects, contingent on availability of federal funding, evidence of project effectiveness, and compliance to program requirements.
