|Anaheim Public Utilities
ANAHEIM, CA - (August 1, 2011) - At the July 27, 2011 Anaheim Public Utilities Board meeting, the board members unanimously appointed Jordan Brandman to serve as Chair of its Board and Dave Morgan as Vice Chair. The Board also welcomed long-standing community leader Susan Faessel as a new member.
Made up of seven Anaheim residents and appointed to staggered four-year terms by members of the Anaheim City Council, the Board's role is to advise the Council on various utility matters, including: sources of water and power supply; renewable energy resource options; water and energy conservation and efficiency incentives; water and electric rates; and annual capital and operating budgets.
As a member of the Board since 2007, Brandman has been pivotal in guiding sustainable efforts and helping to pioneer the popular Solar Flag program, which provides solar infrastructure to schools and are used to help educate the students on how sustainable energy is created. Brandman replaces former Chair, Lon Cahill, a 35-year veteran in the local fire industry. Cahill's distinguished career and the eight years he has served on the Board has provided unwavering leadership to the utility team.
Having worked for the City since 1974 and also serving as Anaheim's City Manager for eight years, Morgan assumes the role as Public Utilities Board Vice Chair. A seasoned veteran at creating solutions, Morgan has been a supporter of major utility capital projects including the development of the Canyon Power Plant - which addresses the reliability needs of Anaheim's growing community.
Faessel, an Anaheim resident for more than 50 years, has long been recognized for her work in serving the community. She is the current president of Anaheim Beautiful and previously held the position as Chair of the Anaheim Library Foundation.
"We are fortunate to have members who are committed to pursuing innovative projects that help to strengthen our utility," said General Manager, Marcie Edwards.

Jesse James on 'Nightline': I'm a Liar, Not a Racist
James said Bullock had suspected he was being unfaithful in the past, but "I lied and lied my way out of it. I lied to everyone about everything, even to myself."
But of all the reasons James sat down with ABC's Vicki Mabrey for the interview -- which airs Tuesday on 'Nightline' -- he revealed his main motivation was to dispel charges he's a racist.
"I think out of anything this is why I'm doing this interview the most," he said. "Because dealing with losing my marriage and my son and embarrassing everyone and decimating my life. But to be called a racist on top of that, it makes me really sad seeing the photo and the way I look.
The photo in question (Us Weekly had it) shows James sporting a Nazi hat and giving a Nazi salute. Compounding the bad press surrounding the shot is James' alleged relationship with stripper Michelle "Bombshell" McGee, who has been photographed wearing similar Nazi gear and reportedly sports a swastika tattoo.
"I don't even remember taking the photo," he claimed. "But I can tell by the look of my face that it was a joke. That was funny then, for like a minute. Looking at it in the context of my life now, it's not funny."
James said he "knew it was horrible" to cheat on Bullock but continued to do so out of desire to derail his life because things were too good.
"It made me feel horrible," James said of the infidelities. "And I knew I would get caught eventually, and I think I wanted to get caught. I don't think, I know for a fact now what it was. It was me trying to self-sabotage my life."
The 'West Coast Chopper' star became visibly upset when discussing the people he has hurt most in the scandal and the irony of the path he took.
"The last person I would ever want to harm is her or the kids," he said. "I spent my whole life with the kids and her, trying to protect her. But the most hurt she's ever been caused is by the person who wanted to protect her."
He continued: "It's really, it's terrible. And she's going to hurt for a long time. It's hard for me to talk about it a little bit, because I still really love and care about her."
James covers just about all the bases with 'Nightline' -- his cheating, his divorce from Bullock, his stint in rehab and his role in raising Louis, the baby boy Bullock and James recently adopted.
Asked if he's the "most hated man in America," James answers, grinning, "I think it's the 'most hated man in the world,' now."
Since news of his multiple affairs hit the press, James has kept a low profile, and has only been seen dropping his kids off at school. But while he's generally stayed out of the spotlight, the reality star has issued several statements apologizing for his behavior.
When PEOPLE broke the story of Bullock's adoption last month, Jesse released the following statement to the magazine: "My whole life has been full of hard decisions. The decision to let my wife end our marriage, and continue the adoption of Louis on her own, has been the hardest. The love I have for Louis cannot be put to words. Not having him around to love and to hold has left a huge hole in my heart."
The complete interview will air on May 25 at 11:35 PM ET/PT on ABC, and will be previewed on 'Good Morning America' that day.

No matter what the other person has done, you have to forgive, but you don't have to go back to the union. What Jesse James did was a very hurtful thing, in fact it's one of the worse things you can do to your spouse.

It IS the single worst thing a spouse can do to the other. The betrayal will change her and stay with her a very long time, if not forever.
Been there, done that.

It is possible to once day forgive.....but it is impossible to forget. The damage done to one's self esteem & self worth is sometimes irreparable, it isn't as simple as "get over it & move on".
Experience makes us stronger, wiser & less trusting. Its the adulterer that made us this way.

ANROSE: I can think of about 20 things worse a husband or wife could do. What most woman do not get, it is just sex. It is the deception and lies that freak woman out. You feel like a big fool. But, if he truly has no relationship with the woman what is really the harm. Practice safe sex. Does your husband know every time you spend money on something, sometimes do you not tell him? Then it is a big lie.

I think that J.J. getting on television and doing this candid of an interview is good for his recovery. I think that it's appropriate since the cheating was so public. I think that it's brave of him and even though he messed up, he's a stand up guy for doing this.
- Monday 24 MayBy Sadie
Rubbish! All the crying and boo-hooing and self pity. The REAL victims in all of this are his kids. His little girl is said to have loved and was dependent on Sandra for stablility and love in a relationship. He has destroyed that. And we are supposed to feel sorry for him? What a man! Wonder what he was telling the skanks he was with when he was lying with them? If you make excuses for this behavior, you are insulting all the good men out there who are real fathers and husbands.
- Monday 24 MayBy jeremy
You have a very low threshold for the title of 'stand up guy'.....
- Tuesday 25 May
Brave of him??? Are you kidding me??? There is nothing brave about JJ. Nothing brave about cheating, & hurting someone you supposedly love. JJ has a history of cheating & chooses to continue to cheat. The one thing I can't stand is when a person blames his childhood on his behavior. Your a big boy now. You are in charge of your life & how it turns out, not your parents. JJ is not marriage material & a terrible role model for his children. End of story.
- Tuesday 25 MayBy Amelie
This attitude by women is why we have males like him. They know they can do anything to these women and as long as they say they're sorry and maybe buy her something to "prove" their love these women refuse to see the truth. I did not refer to j.j. as a man because he isn't one . As for him getting caught on purpose he is so full of crap it's pathetic. He still thinks he is in control of this situation and instead of just accepting the fact that that he is no better than all the other cheaters ,male or female, he wants to pretend he is self destructive not just a bad person. The only love this man knows is for himself. Samantha stop settling for the bottom feeders, if you ever meet a real man you will finally know what we are all talking about.

I agree, Samantha. Most importantly his public acknowledgment is necessary to validate all of Sandra's suspicion and gut feelings that he now admits to have been lies he told her to cover up his bad behavior. Women are told how "crazy" they are for being so "jealous" and "insecure." I'll bet he even told Sandra some version of this: "I am offended that you would accuse me of sleeping with THAT ugly thing when I have someone as bright, beautiful, and talented as you. You must be CRAZY to think I would throw all of this away just to poke that skank."
And if the wife confronts the mistress, the husband states that the mistress is crazy and maybe even that the mistress has been stalking him. The worst I ever heard was a husband filing rape charges after being caught red-handed having an affair.

So he cheated. Big deal. So does everyone else, men & women. She has a choice of accepting it and forgiving if she wants otherwise if she can't take it, get out, which is what she did. I just wonder sometimes how many "media people" cheat. Everyone makes such a big deal about it. It's extra marital affairs, people, it's not murder!!
- Monday 24 MayBy monilynn
I've been hurt a few times(3) it's not fun! And the guy rarely if ever has an excuse. Because there is no such thing as a "good excuse" for cheating. If you want to be with that person be with them or leave them alone. That's why so many good women clam up their feelings, which in turn makes it harder for the next guy, but it was a guy that made it hard for that woman to open up...

In a YouTube interview conducted today, President Obama reiterated his strong support for net neutrality, responding to a prominent question by one of the thousands of citizens who participated in the online town hall.
Here's the exchange:
MR. GROVE: Great. Well, let's move back to the questions. And I got to tell you, the number one question that came in, in the jobs and economy category had to do with the Internet. And it came from James Earlywine in Indianapolis. He said: "An open Internet is a powerful engine for economic growth and new jobs. Letting large companies block and fill their online content services would stifle needed growth. What is your commitment to keeping Internet open and neutral in America?"
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I'm a big believer in net neutrality. I campaigned on this. I continue to be a strong supporter of it. My FCC Chairman, Julius Genachowski, has indicated that he shares the view that we've got to keep the Internet open; that we don't want to create a bunch of gateways that prevent somebody who doesn't have a lot of money but has a good idea from being able to start their next YouTube or their next Google on the Internet. So this is something we're committed to.
We're getting pushback, obviously, from some of the bigger carriers who would like to be able to charge more fees and extract more money from wealthier customers. But we think that runs counter to the whole spirit of openness that has made the Internet such a powerful engine for not only economic growth, but also for the generation of ideas and creativity.
This is an area where the executive branch is acting directly. As Obama mentioned, his FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski shares his vision, and the FCC has approved rules for an open Internet. The rules will be finalized in the spring, and certainly there is the possibility for wiggle room in the final language and explicit overturning of the rule from Congress. But this statement of continued support from the President aids the cause. Tim Karr of Save the Internet spoke with the questioner, who was pleased with the outcome.
"I was pleasantly surprised to hear he took my question," said Earlywine, an online marketing expert who is working with eScrapInc to recycle electronic products that would otherwise be put into a landfill. "This business relies upon an open Internet for our continued growth and survival. "
"I really believe in Obama's commitment to saving the Internet for people," Earlywine told me today. "Our nation's laws are intended to protect the weak. But there are a lot of powerful people trying to set the agenda for themselves. Government is supposed to be a counterbalance to that and it's nice to see we have a president who shares those values."
As the FCC prepares to make new rules on Net Neutrality this spring, it's important to hear Obama take a stand. Obama's statement comes on the heels of other prominent public officials expressing their support of Net Neutrality and Internet freedom, including FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Save the Internet has collected 1.7 million signatures in support of net neutrality.

Who's Who of Ferguson Protests: Leaders, Activists
The People of Ferguson
Danny Wicentowski
Obviously, these collections of competing interests, ideologies and politics make Ferguson a staggeringly complex situation to comprehend, let alone analyze. But from another perspective, Ferguson is actually very, very simple to understand:
People live here.
Put aside the high-minded talk of a nation confronting its historical racism -- it is the residents of this St. Louis suburb who must smell tear gas leaking into their homes each night. They are the businesses owners suffering after each round of looting. They are the parents whose children are not going to school. They are the workers missing shifts because police have blockaded the roads.
They are the homeowners who allowed photographers and reporters to hide in their living rooms while armored trucks lobbed tear gas into the streets where children play. Or used to play. They were the first ones to shed tears of grief for Michael Brown and his family. They are the families who cannot burn their community to the ground for a cause. Because for the people of Ferguson, the future of their community hangs in the balance. There can be no other cause.

Cornhucksters: Ethanol Salesmen Who Would Be President
In a National Review Online op-ed earlier this month, Katrina Trinko observed that four of the potential candidates for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination are stuck on ethanol:
What kind of Republican supports high tariffs on imports, dubious green tax credits, and consumption mandates to prop up unprofitable environmental darlings? The ethanol-loving midwestern kind, especially the ones running for president.
Currently, imported ethanol is slapped with a 54-cent-per-gallon tariff, while oil companies receive a 45-cent tax credit per gallon of ethanol blended into their gasoline. Both the tariff and the tax credit have just been extended for another year, thanks to a bipartisan push from Cornbelt politicians. In case these provisions aren't enough to help the industry hobble its way to satisfying profits, lawmakers also decided to mandate that U.S. consumption of renewable fuels (which will certainly be almost entirely corn-based and cellulosic ethanol) reach 36 billion gallons by 2022. And that's just the assistance provided on the federal level.
There are four potential midwestern 2012 Republican presidential nominees: Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty, Indiana governor Mitch Daniels, South Dakota senator John Thune, and Indiana congressman Mike Pence. When it comes to doling out favors to the ethanol industry, none of them can credibly claim his attitude was "just say no."
Does it matter? Absolutely: As this year's tariff and tax-credit extensions showed, even a Tea Party–driven small-government surge can't stop politicians from kowtowing to the ethanol lobby. Further, a Republican president who is willing to carve out exemptions for ethanol interests will lack credibility when he battles spending or tax breaks benefiting other special interests. And finally, while some claim that ethanol will allow our nation to achieve energy independence, the fact that the highest approved corn-gas blend is only 15 percent ethanol (and is approved only for certain automobile models from 2007 or later) suggests that an America running on corn is unlikely in the extreme.
Mike Pence has announced that he does not intend to seek national office. But a seemingly unlikely friend of the ethanol lobby is already taking his place. Newt Gingrich is a product of the southeast, not the midwest. But he is no less a snake corn oil salesman than his four counterparts in the American heartland, as a WSJ editorial, published today, reveals:
The former Speaker blew through Des Moines last Tuesday for the Renewable Fuels Association summit, and his keynote speech to the ethanol lobby was as pious a tribute to the fuel made from corn and tax dollars as we've ever heard.
Of course, the ethanol boom isn't due to the misallocation of resources that always stalks inflation. It is the result of decades of deliberate industrial policy, as Mr. Gingrich well knows. In 1998, then Ways and Means Chairman Bill Archer tried to kill ethanol's subsidies for good, only to land in the wet cement that Speaker Gingrich had poured.
Yet today this now-mature industry enjoys far more than cash handouts, including tariffs on foreign competitors and a mandate to buy its product. Supporters are always inventing new reasons for these dispensations, like carbon benefits (nonexistent, according to the greens and most scientific evidence) and replacing foreign oil (imports are up). An historian of Mr. Gingrich's distinction surely knows all that.
Given that Mr. Gingrich aspires to be President, his ethanol lobbying raises larger questions about his convictions and judgment. The Georgian has been campaigning in the tea party age as a fierce critic of spending and government, but his record on that score is, well, mixed.
Do we need to blend ethanol with our gasoline? Yes, but only as a fuel oxygenate and only in very small amounts. That was the original idea when it was discovered in the previous decade that the chemical compound MTBE, which was then the oxygenate of choice, was leaking from fuel storage tanks into the groundwater. MTBE was an excellent anti-knock agent, and it was hailed as a much less toxic solution to increase the octane level of gasoline than lead, which had been used for that purpose for much of the previous century. But environmental and health concerns brought us ethanol as a replacement.
Ethanol was first blended with gasoline at a 10 percent concentration (E10), which is more than enough for it to serve its function as an oxygenate. But an ethanol lobby quickly coalesced around the corn product, and soon it was pushing for higher concentrations of ethanol in each gallon of gasoline. E10 will soon be replaced by E15, and the lobby wants to see even high blend levels, such as E-85, the so-called "flex fuel."
As a motor fuel, ethanol is not without its issues. At higher concentrations, the net lower energy of the blend becomes a factor. A vehicle will get somewhat lower fuel mileage compared to conventional 87 octane unleaded gasoline. Although many modern American cars are capable of burning E-85 with no harmful effects to the engines, this is not true for all of them. And many owners of small engines, used in their lawn mowers, trimmers, outboard marine applications, etc. have reported severe damage from ethanol blend use, even at concentrations as low as 15 percent. And until cellulosic ethanol production become feasible, economically and otherwise, the sugar and corn we currently use will remain at higher prices than they would if the only demand for corn was for use as food.
The fact is that natural gas, coal, and oil continue to provide the most efficient use of energy defined by what it costs in dollars and energy (fuel and labor) to get to them versus the amount of energy they provide for those dollars and energy. Of these three, the environmental lobby least favors coal and oil, although it is not very fond of any of them because they are not considered "renewable" resources. But natural gas, when used as a motor fuel, has too many advantages to be ignored. It is relatively cheap, clean-burning (Honda's CNG-powered Civic GX is greener than a Toyota Prius hybrid), and plentiful. We're living right on top of lots of it, and it's not just deposited under a few corn-growing states. At least half of our country's states have natural gas reserves. The Natural Gas Supply Association says those reserves are sufficient for at least 60 years at current use levels, according to its most conservative estimates. Only 56 percent of the crude oil refined in the U.S. comes from North America, but 98 percent of the natural gas we consume is produced here.
What's holding natural gas back? Nationwide, there are only about 1,500 natural-gas refueling stations for motor vehicles, and only about half of them sell to the public. California and Oklahoma lead the nation in offering the most locations where owners of CNG-fueled vehicles can "fill up." If we're to invest in our infrastructure, natural gas refueling stations will likely provide more bang for the buck than money spent in other ways.
There's another factor holding back the use of natural gas, and that is the commitment to rely on it to make the United States truly energy secure and energy independent. Such a commitment requires a strong will, a vision for the future and a steel spine. Look over the list of potential candidates for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination and see if you can find one who meets these criteria. Hint: It's not one of the "good old boys."

I'd like to apologize to everyone who came out to the Alfred Q Pennybod show last night. Due to a mistake in our booking department, Alfred never received his all purple Fruity Pebble, as per his contract, hence the reason he never took the stage. The Henderson Account would like to warn residence near the park to stay indoors to avoid the rabid disgruntle Pennybod-heads. Reports show that some are hiding in park trash receptacles awaiting passers by to sing Alfred's hit "I am not a Bus". Please be advise the Boaz Celebration will continue and more information will be posted when available.

WHAT IS GOYA? GOYA is a ministry for middle and high school youth, whose main purpose is to support Christian Youth through the development of friendships and a sense of communion with each other. Whereas our other ministries for youth center on worship or education, GOYA builds the Orthodox Lifestyle through the ministry of fellowship. Friendships are fostered through activities incorporating the four basic characteristics of the Orthodox Life: worship, fellowship, service and witness. In all of this, GOYA provides an environment where youth are comfortable growing in their faith and building relationships based on common Christian values.
WHO IS PART OF GOYA? As for the membership of GOYA, any student grades 6 – 12 who wants to participate in activities or fellowship in a Christian environment is welcome. Friends of parishioners, seekers, and those looking for a safe environment of Christian love and support are always invited.
WHAT DOES GOYA DO? In GOYA this year, we will be getting together for various activities, outings, and fellowship gatherings. We will meet once a month for an event, outing, or service project, and once a month for a fireside chat and fellowship event. Fireside chat nights will involve games, activities, and fellowship followed by brief 20 minute spiritual discussions. Activities will involve anything from a mountain hike, bowling, laser tag, or ministering to the homeless to overnight retreats at the church and camping.
GOYA activities are vehicles in which Youth may build lasting Christian friendships. By getting together for different activities, service projects, and fellowship gatherings, Goyans enjoy a special time for fellowship, reflection, growth, and bonding as members of the body of Christ.
HOW OFTEN DOES GOYA MEET? GOYA will meet twice a month. The Welcome Back party is September 11 at the Payne Residence. Stay tuned for more upcoming events! We will have multiple events coming in October, including an outing with the Cathedral GOYA.
WHO LEADS GOYA? The GOYA leadership in our parish is comprised of Father Andrew Kearns and the following Youth Advisors: Christina Neal, Mike and Sara Sentena, Alexis Ninos and Jamie Payne. We will also be looking for student volunteers to become Student GOYA Leaders, as well as parents to make up a Parental Advisory Board that will meet periodically to make suggestions and offer support for events.
CONTACT: If you would like to be included on the GOYA contact/e-mailing list, if you have any ideas or suggestions for the ministry, please contact Father Andrew.
A Special Ministry of GOYA is the basketball program. The annual Basketball Tournament has proven to be an excellent opportunity for the youth of our Church to come together in the name of Christ for fellowship and growth.

As Reuters reports, both Apple and AT&T have agreed to license Klausner's patents relating to Visual Voicemail, and settle the lawsuit that was brought against them, although any other details are expectedly light at the moment. It seems that Klausner isn't quite content to sit on its patents just yet, however, with Reuters also reporting that the company is "in discussions" with both Comcast and Cablevision about them using the very same technology.[Via CNET News.com]

And the answer-- in my analysis-- is, as usual with most mergers: money. The fact is that Activision wants to be the biggest gaming company in the world. They want it all-- consoles, PC games, you name it-- and connecting with Blizzard helps them get a big part of that. World of Warcraft has turned Blizzard from a quality game designer into a videogame powerhouse, and Activision, in reaching for the top, has invited Blizzard on their team.
Blizzard will profit from it as well-- Activision knows how to get games published and marketed (just look at Guitar Hero III, which has done incredibly well for being a game that was not only not made by the original developer, but actually released up against a strong competitor made by the original developer). Blizzard knows how to make great games, and Activision knows how to release them, so both companies obviously think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
But is it?
Simon Carless at GameSetWatch has the most cynical commentary so far: he says that Activision's CEO getting put in charge means they wear the pants, so to speak, and that even so, Activision is actually marrying well in this relationship-- as you might imagine, World of Warcraft's revenues are "staggering." EA, says Carless, is probably worried, but not actually threatened, by the relationship-- they're still bigger than Activision, and if Warhammer Online does well, EA won't have anything to worry about in almost any of their markets.
So in the short term, the talking heads at the company are probably right-- nothing will change. Vivendi and Blizzard are just securing their future in game publishing with a company that's shown it knows how to publish great games and do it well. Blizzard will still be Blizzard, and Activision will still be Activision-- they'll just both be called Activision Blizzard.
Where things may change, however, is a few years down the road, when Activision's management has turned over a few times, and Blizzard is working on new properties, possibly even a console property. Right now, the two companies have almost nothing in common, and that's why a merger works so well for both of them. But if Blizzard decides (or, in the future, is asked) to work on a console title, or if Activision decides that an old Blizzard property needs a new title not made by Blizzard, then we could see problems. Blizzard is known for taking their time and releasing quality titles, and in profitable game publishing (like what Activision is doing), the chance to do both of those things is hard to find.
For now, everything's fine. World of Warcraft isn't going anywhere, and odds are that any titles Blizzard has in development won't change either (as if we would know if they did anyway). But in the future, the bond between these two companies may grow stronger (or weaker-- maybe Vivendi, who still holds a controlling stake in Activision, will decide it was a bad idea and separate the two divisions), and that's when we'll see the effects of these decisions come into play.

What is vaginal bleeding?
Vaginal bleeding is bleeding that flows from the vagina. Bleeding can originate in the vagina, cervix or uterus.
Abnormal or unexpected vaginal bleeding that occurs outside your normal menstrual cycle or causes extreme symptoms during your period can be caused by a wide variety of abnormal conditions, including hormonal imbalances, infection, complications of pregnancy, malignancy, trauma, and certain medications. However, many underlying causes of abnormal vaginal bleeding, such as vaginal dryness and cervical dysplasia, are very treatable if promptly diagnosed and treated.
Treatment of vaginal bleeding varies and is tailored to the individual case, the underlying cause, the severity of symptoms, and the presence of any complications.
Sometimes bloody urine, which is due to bleeding from the urinary tract, or bloody stools, which is due to bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract, can be mistaken for vaginal bleeding. Any unexplained bleeding should be evaluated by your health care professional.
Some types of vaginal bleeding can be caused by serious, even life-threatening conditions, such as an ectopic pregnancy, uterine cancer, or pelvic inflammatory disease. Seek prompt medical care if you have vaginal bleeding that is different than your normal menstrual period. Early diagnosis and treatment of vaginal bleeding reduces the risk of serious complications, such as infertility and metastatic uterine cancer.
Seek immediate medical care (call 911) if you, or someone you are with, are pregnant and have vaginal bleeding or abdominal pain.
What are the different types of vaginal bleeding?
Vaginal bleeding can be described in various terms, such as vaginal bleeding after menopause and oligomenorrhea. The terms applied to vaginal bleeding include:
Bloody vaginal discharge
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding, a general term for abnormal uterine bleeding that is not caused by the menstrual cycle
Menorrhagia, unusually heavy menstrual periods
Menstrual bleeding, vaginal bleeding that occurs due to a normal menstrual period
Oligomenorrhea, which is menstrual bleeding that occurs more than 35 days after the last menstrual period (less than 10 periods a year)
Polymenorrhea, which is menstrual bleeding that occurs less than 21 days after the last menstrual period (more than 12 periods a year)
Spotting, a type of vaginal bleeding that is light and irregular
Vaginal bleeding after intercourse
Vaginal bleeding after menopause
Vaginal bleeding during pregnancy or labor
Vaginal hemorrhage, which is very heavy vaginal bleeding
What other symptoms might occur with vaginal bleeding?
Vaginal bleeding may occur with other symptoms that vary depending on the underlying disease, disorder or condition. For example, excessive vaginal bleeding due to hemophilia (a bleeding disorder) may occur in conjunction with other bleeding symptoms, such as difficulty controlling bleeding from a small hand laceration.
Symptoms that may occur along with vaginal bleeding... Read more about vaginal bleedingsymptoms
What causes vaginal bleeding?
Normal vaginal bleeding occurs every 21 to 35 days during menstruation. Your menstrual period may last for just a few days or for more than a week. A normal menstrual flow can differ greatly from woman to woman and also varies in different phases of life, such as adolescence and perimenopause. Abnormal vaginal bleeding can be due to a range of different conditions, from mild vaginal irritation ... Read more about vaginal bleedingcauses

UNC system launches campus safety initiative
A committee charged with studying whether the 17 campuses in the UNC system are using best practices when it comes to safety got its marching orders Tuesday from UNC President Tom Ross during a kick-off meeting at the Friday Center.
Composed of academic and student affairs professionals, campus police chiefs, campus attorneys and others from across the UNC system, the committee will focus on responding to offenses against persons, campus public safety and security reporting and awareness.
"This university aspires to be a leader among higher education institutions in understanding and implementing the best methods and practices for responding to offenses against persons and ensuring that campus law enforcement operations function in accordance with well-designed policies and procedures," Ross said.
Led by N.C. State Chancellor Randy Woodson and N.C. A&T Chancellor Harold Martin, the 45 or more participants were separated into three working groups. Each group was asked to concentrate on one of the initiative's three focus areas.
Ross has asked that they submit a single report in April that also includes recommendations and best practices to ensure campuses are safe.
He acknowledged that it will be impossible to insulate campuses from the violence that exists in society and at the same time preserve a commitment to access and openness.
"Still, if the University of North Carolina is to effectively carry out our three-part mission of teaching, research and service, we must do everything feasible to promote a safe environment on our campuses and ensure that the rights of individuals are respected," Ross said.
In addition, to looking at campus safety issues, the working groups will weigh the impact of alcohol and drugs on campuses and make recommendations for system-level policies and procedures they deem are needed.
"As we know from our experiences, alcohol and drugs change behavior, change attitudes and perspectives and in many ways contribute to some of the inappropriate and unfortunate behavior of our students on our respective campuses," Martin said.
Abigail Boyer, assistant executive director of programs and outreach at the Clery Center for Security on Campus, said universities can use the annual security reports required under the Clery Act to their advantage by highlighting policies and programs they have in place to make their campus safe.
"I encourage institutions to use that opportunity, talk about what you are doing," Boyer said.
Ross announced the creation of the initiative in June at a time when UNC was in the national spotlight over its handling of sexual assaults.
Elizabeth City State University also found itself in the news this past summer after an investigation by local police found that campus police didn't investigate 126 reported crimes, including several alleged sexual assaults.
The discovery led to the resignation of the police chief and the retirement of the university's chancellor.

Abstract: J5.00001 : Overview of USPAS and its role in educating the next generation of accelerator scientists and engineers
Preview Abstract MathJax On | Off Abstract
William Barletta
(USPAS / Dept. of Physics, MIT / Fermi National Acceleratot Laboratory)
Accelerators are essential engines of discovery in fundamental physics, biology, and chemistry. Particle beam based instruments in medicine, industry and national security constitute a multi-billion dollar per year industry. More than 55,000 peer-reviewed papers having accelerator as a keyword are available on the Web. Yet only a handful of universities offer any formal training in accelerator science. Several reasons can be cited: 1) The science and technology of particle beams and other non-neutral plasmas cuts across traditional academic disciplines. 2) Electrical engineering departments have evolved toward micro- and nano-technology and computing science. 3) Nuclear engineering departments have atrophied at many major universities. 4) With few exceptions, interest at individual universities is not extensive enough to support a strong faculty line. The United States Particle Accelerator School (USPAS) is National Graduate Educational Program that has developed a highly successful educational paradigm that, over the past twenty-years, has granted more university credit in accelerator / beam science and technology than any university in the world. Governed and supported by a consortium of nine DOE laboratories and two NSF university laboratories, USPAS offers a responsive and balanced curriculum of science, engineering, computational and hands-on courses. Sessions are held twice annually, hosted by major US research universities that approve course credit, certify the USPAS faculty, and grant course credit. The USPAS paradigm is readily extensible to other rapidly developing, cross-disciplinary research areas such as high energy density physics.

Book News: Bush Library Exhibit Puts You In President's Shoes
By Annalisa Quinn
The daily lowdown on books, publishing, and the occasional author behaving badly.
- The George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum, which will be officially dedicated Thursday at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, features an exhibit intended to mimic the hard decisions the former president made during his eight-year tenure. The New York Times reports that "visitors to an interactive theater will be presented with the stark choices that confronted the nation's 43rd president: invade Iraq or leave Saddam Hussein in power? Deploy federal troops after Hurricane Katrina or rely on local forces? Bail out Wall Street or let the banks fail?"
- American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis was asked not to come to the GLAAD media awards over the weekend because of his controversial remarks about gays, such as his remark in 2011 that watching the television show Glee was like stepping "into a puddle of HIV." On Monday night, he (characteristically) took to Twitter, tweeting, "Thanks to all members of the LGBT community for your support. Not all of us are neutered politically correct snowflakes. Diversity=Strength."
- Maggie Shipstead deconstructs Isabel Allende's latest novel, Maya's Notebook, for The New Republic, calling it "a book so unconvincing as to raise questions about how many literary sins have been disguised by Allende's historical settings and shielded by the vague label of magical realism."
- Brain Pickings editor Maria Popova posts a photo of Vladimir Nabokov's immigration ID — "color of eyes: grey" and "nationality: without."
- Tuesday night is World Book Night, a nationwide event at which some half a million books are given away free to "light and non-readers" as a way of promoting literacy.
- In Slate, Mason Currey reports on W.H. Auden, Jean-Paul Sartre, Ayn Rand and other authors who relied on amphetamines to work. Curry writes that Sartre "turned to Corydrane, a mix of amphetamine and aspirin then fashionable among Parisian students, intellectuals, and artists. The prescribed dose was one or two tablets in the morning and at noon. Sartre took 20 a day, beginning with his morning coffee, and slowly chewed one pill after another as he worked. For each tablet, he could produce a page or two of his second major philosophical work, The Critique of Dialectical Reason."

I have had requests for a page of puppy pictures, so here it is! I enjoy taking photos of puppies and figured I should share them. They are sure to put a smile on faces! I love watching puppies explore, play and learn about life. They go at it with such gusto and joy. These pictures are my attempt at capturing just a little of that.
I added two more puppy photo pages, with the Even More Puppies page having some of our best and newest photos. Be sure to check them out too!
Puppies love to play tug-o-war!

The phones are a little pricey,but after initial investment my monthly plan is very reasonable.

Rates on hold
Another month goes by, another decision by the Reserve Bank to keep interest rates on hold.PT1M12S http://news.domain.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-3b3y5 620 349 June 30, 2014
The Reserve Bank decided to leave the cash rate on hold at 2.5 per cent on Tuesday with property experts now predicting that interest rates are unlikely to change until 2015.
Domain Group senior economist Dr Andrew Wilson said short of a "currency crisis" triggered by an unforeseen international event, "there is absolutely no rational case for an increase in interest rates given the short- and medium-term outlook for the economy".
A recent survey from mortgage comparison website finder.com.au also suggested a rate hike is unlikely any time soon.
Of the 18 experts that took part in the survey, 11 said the cash rate would stay on hold until 2015, with six boldly betting on no rise until the second half of next year.
But the director of the website, Fred Schebesta, said an ongoing period of cheap finance would not be enough to draw first-home buyers back into the market.
"Even though the cash rate has sat at a record low of 2.50 per cent for almost a year, it hasn't encouraged more Australians to enter the property market," said Mr Schebesta.
"In fact, we've seen a decline in the proportion of first home buyers out of all loans financed since the cash rate began to fall in November 2011."
Mr Schebesta said he expects the outlook for first timers to worsen and "drop to about one in 10 of all home loans".
Dr Wilson said a long period of low interest rates may have actually disadvantaged first-home buyers.
"The lower cost of finance has released pent-up demand, which has pushed prices up," he said.
"So what first home buyers have gained with low interest rates they've lost by actually having to borrow more because prices are higher."
Figures released by RP Data on Tuesday suggested that Australia's price growth had peaked, but first home buyers in some cities should still expect further price increases.
"The quarterly rate of growth peaked across the Australian housing market in August last year at 4.0 per cent," said RP Data research director Tim Lawless.
"Sydney is probably at or close to the peak of its cycle right now. . . we will start to see growth rates across Sydney tapering away to something that is more sustainable.
"Brisbane is the only other market really that may give Sydney a run for its money in terms of value growth performance because we are starting to see some momentum gather in that market now."
Mr Lawless agreed that the cash rate will remain at its current low setting.
"At least for the remainder of this year," he said.
A sentiment yet again echoed by Reserve Bank Governer Glenn Stevens who noted in his statement: "On present indications, the most prudent course is likely to be a period of stability in interest rates".

For the second day in a row, Iran demands that Turkey apologize for bombing an Iranian border village. The Turks deny the allegation.
July 18; The Iranian government said that Turkish army operations against Kurd rebels led to the bombing of an Iranian border village and the deaths of five civilians. The Turks said they double checked and denied that they had bombed Iranian territory.
July 17 , 1999; Student protests continue as students announce that 1,400 have been arrested.
July 16; The government bans further street protests and vows to severely punish anyone who violates the ban.
July 14: The government announced that 30 demonstrators were killed in one day of violence. Moderate Iranian president Khatami, not wanting an open split with the religious leadership that controls the police and army, has called for a crack down on street demonstrations. The religious leadership has already done this, and has called out fundamentalist volunteers to "assist" the police in suppressing the demonstrations. It was these fundamentalist vigilantes who increased the level of violence by attacking student demonstrators.

CHANHASSEN, Minn. - 11-year old Tyler Sullivan never made it into school on Friday, but he has a pretty good excuse.
"I was sitting in the front row," recalls Tyler. "It was pretty exciting."
Tyler and his dad listened to President Obama address supporters at Honeywell in Golden Valley, but it's what happened afterwards that left Tyler speechless.
"I had a chance to shake his hand," said Tyler. "The President said, 'you must be missing school.'"
The President then took out a notepad and a pen and wrote Tyler an official excused absence note, complete with a presidential signature.
"I was like really?!" said Tyler. "I kind of want to brag at school and say 'look what I got!'"
The note read: "Mr. Ackerman, Please excuse Tyler. He was with me. Barack Obama."
The 5th grader from Rochester now hopes his executive excuse holds up come Monday.
"I'm going to bring it and say 'this is why I was gone!'"

AVONDALE, Ariz. -- (AP) -- Joe Gibbs says he never considered firing Kyle Busch over the drivers' road rage incident in the Truck Series race at Texas.
But Gibbs says Busch will face more punishment from the race team, including financial penalties.
Busch will run Sunday's race at Phoenix International Raceway without primary sponsor M&M's. The company did want to sponsor Busch for the final two races of the season, so Joe Gibbs Racing longtime partner Interstate Batteries will be on the car.
Busch was suspended by NASCAR last weekend for intentionally wrecking Ron Hornaday Jr. under caution early in the truck race at Texas. He also was fined $50,000 and placed on probation through the end of the year.

Two gems of the Velva are the Velva City Park and Wildwood Parks. The City Park, located on 23 acres in the heart of the community, hosts picnic shelters, tennis and horseshoe courts with a walking bridge connecting to the recreation complex including softball, football and baseball fields, outdoor swimming pool and modern RV hookups. The park also features a myraid of playground equipment, shelters and kitchen with electricity and running water, bathrooms, grilling pits, and fresh running spring water.
The Wildwood Park is a designated Land and Water Conservation Park with walking trails. This peaceful area meanders around the Souris River and a variety of wildlife can be spotted year round.
The Star City Golf Course, is a 9-hole grass greens course just north of the city, complete with a full-service clubhouse and cart rentals. Summer also means summer recreation league for youth including t-ball, softball and baseball.
Fall and spring, large areas of land are available near the city for hunting of upland birds and waterfowl along with the late fall whitetail deer season.
The City of Minot is less than 30 minutes west of town with everything you could possibly need. A growing community, Minot offers the beautiful Roosevelt Park and Zoo, multiplex movie theaters, miniature golf, go-carts, ethnic dining, dancing, concerts, symphony orchestra, and semi-pro sports teams.
Some of the world's finest fresh water fishing is just south of town at Lake Sakakwea. Rustic and modern camping facilities are available, as well as rentals and guide services. Recreation abounds on the big lake, as well as on closer avenues, such as Strawberry and Crooked Lakes. Lake Metigoshe, a lake bordering Canada and United States, is north of Velva.

Gear Review
David Page
One of the Finest Made Product Ever
I bought one of these jackets around 1993. It was my main jacket for winter for many years. I left it at a new years party and my friend refused to return it conveniently because he love it so much.
This jacket is one of the greatest jackets ever designed. It has a thicker fleece exterior but it keeps you incredibly warm due to the wind-proof membrane. Pockets are large.
Patagonia makes quality products that are durable and this is one of the best.
I'm glad to have my new one for this winter.

CAPITOL HILL (AP) - The nation's top communications regulator
says his agency has all the power it needs to keep Internet service
providers from discriminating against some Web surfers.
Kevin Martin, who chairs the Federal Communications Commission,
told a Senate panel that new legislation isn't necessary.
His testimony came at a time when the issue of "network
neutrality" has heated up. That's the principle that people should
be able to go where they choose on the Internet without
interference from network owners.
Comcast has admitted that it sometimes delayed file-sharing
traffic for subscribers, as a way to keep Web traffic flowing.
Two senators have proposed legislation that would force those
who control Internet service to treat all traffic equally.

Memorial Service for Professor William Whedbee to Be Held at Pomona College on Feb. 14
A memorial service celebrating the life of Professor J. William (Bill) Whedbee, who died in his sleep at home on Thursday, January 22, will be held on Saturday, February 14, at 2 p.m. at Bridges Hall of Music on the campus of Pomona College, at 150 East Fourth Street in Claremont. Dr. Whedbee, who was 65, was the Nancy M. Lyon Professor of Biblical History and Literature and of Religious Studies at Pomona College.
A member of the Pomona faculty since 1966, Dr. Whedbee was a five-time winner of the College's Wig Distinguished Professorship Award for Excellence in Teaching, who touched and transformed the lives of countless students, many of whom were inspired to follow in his footsteps. "Teaching was his love and joy," says Zayn Kassam, a friend and chair of the Religious Studies Department. "It was an art for him. No matter how many times he had taught the course, he read just about everything important that had been published in the field after he had last taught the course and incorporated it. I can't imagine that incoming freshmen will no longer have the opportunity to take Bill's signature class, Biblical Heritage, which he taught every semester."
Dr. Whedbee also taught Elementary Classical Hebrew, Readings in Classical Hebrew, The New Testament and the History of Early Christianity, and Myth in Classical and Contemporary Religious Traditions.
"He was able to let the texts speak for themselves," noted his friend and colleague Jerry Irish. "He was able to step out of the way and, in doing so, he enabled hundreds of students to start telling and living their own stories. Bill understood that teaching, like friendship, was to hear lives into being, to listen and respond to the stories of others."
Rabbi Shelton Donnell, with Temple Beth Shalom Orange County and Pomona Class of 1972, is one of many who credit Dr. Whedbee with life-changing influence. "Bill is the reason I became a rabbi," he noted recently.
Dr. Whedbee's research covered Biblical and ancient near-Eastern literature and religion (especially mythological and epic texts, prophetic and wisdom literature), the history of biblical interpretation, hermeneutics, and literary criticism. He was the author of several books and articles, the most recent of which was the well-received The Bible and the Comic Vision (Cambridge, 1998). Its publication in paperback in 2002 (Fortress) illustrates its accessibility for students as well as scholars. "His distinctive contribution to the field," explains Professor Irish, "was to bring his considerable knowledge of contemporary literary criticism and critical theory to his studies of the Bible, evident in his attention to the comic vision in the Bible."
Dr. Whedbee's impact on Pomona's campus extended far beyond his students and department colleagues. Among those inspired were past and present Pomona-Pitzer soccer student-athletes who were "touched with Bill's kindness and unwavering support through the best and worst of times," said Bill Swartz, coach of the Pomona-Pitzer men's soccer team.
"While spending his last season with the team this fall, Bill continued to teach the coaches and players that 'whatever our hands had decided to do, to do it well.'"
Outside Pomona's gates, Dr. Whedbee gave seminars at Hebrew Union College and team-taught the Bible with his wife, Dr. Tamara C. Eskenazi, in a number of congregations. He earned his B.A. degree from Westmont College, his B.D. from Fuller Theological Seminary, and both his M.A. and Ph.D. degree from Yale University.
The family requests that donations in memory of Bill Whedbee be made to Pomona College in care of David Scott, Director of Stewardship and Memorial Funds, 550 North College Avenue, Claremont, CA 91711.
Dr. Whedbee is survived by his beloved wife, Dr. Tamara Cohn Eskenazi (professor of Bible at Hebrew Union College, Los Angeles), and son David Whedbee (a law student at the University of Washington), as well as his sister Shirley Herman of Seattle, along with step-children Willa Eskenazi (Denver), Kay Eskenazi (San Francisco), Joanne Cohn (Berkeley), Michael Eskenazi (Santa Barbara), and David Cohn (Palo Alto). Five step – grandchildren also survive him: Erika and Nicole Eskenazi, Miranda and Jeremy Cohn, and Alex Cohn White.

Dashboard Wars: Are iOS and Android Infotainment Cuckoos?
Forget phones and tablets, the next big thing in mobility really can move. Audi, so the latest rumors claim, is readying an announcement that it will put Android on future car dashboards, supposedly set to unveil a plan for NVIDIA-powered infotainment systems alongside Google at CES 2014 next week. The deal is said to be a strike back against Apple's play for the car industry; yet, not every car manufacturer is so keen to throw in with the mobile heavyweights. Soon, the battle lines will be drawn: do you embrace smartphone platforms on your dashboard, or stand against them?

Erin is an accomplished elite runner turned yogi due to a running injury and now understands the importance of balance. She was drawn to yoga after reaching a big turning point in her physical and emotional life. "Yoga was my saving grace," she began to practice as much as possible and soon fell in love, so much that she decided to teach! Erin received her 200-hour certification in 2009 in beautiful and healing Costa Rica! She wanted to give to others what she had received from her yoga experience — curiosity of my own yoga experience, the art of receiving, healing, and most important, self-love! Erin ultimately found balance through her yoga experience and also what has become her yoga and massage therapy specialty — prevention of injury and balancing the mind, body, and soul.
Krista first started practicing yoga while living in Australia in 2008. It quickly became the grounding force in her every day life and provided the space she needed to heal from decades of health challenges. The transformative power of yoga allowed her to pursue her passions and showed her the way to a more purposeful and meaningful life. She decided to share this gift with others and in 2012 attended Peak Beings Unified Yoga Teacher Training in Costa Rica and became a 200 Hour Registered Yoga Teacher. Since then she has continued to advance her yoga practice through further trainings and workshops including a 75 Hour Yin Yoga Training. Off the mat, Krista is a social entrepreneur based in Vancouver, B.C., Canada and is also a musician and lead singer in a band.
Tara began practicing yoga 10 years ago while studying in college and instantly fell in love with it. Tara quickly discovered the benefits of yoga including balance and strength and how they improved her favorite outdoor pursuits such as running, skiing and climbing. Yoga also reduced her stress at work and improved her body image, something Tara had struggled with in earlier years. Tara received her 200-hour teacher training in Hawaii through Peak Beings and today teaches classes to visitors, employees and friends in Sequoia National Park, where she works in California. She loves sharing this passion with others and enjoys teaching outdoors whenever she can.
Nikki grew up as a gymnast and dancer, and immediately felt she had found home on her yoga mat when she began to practice the asanas in 2010. She is a part of a vibrant community of yogis on the Jersey Shore where she practices and teaches. With love for the movement and a desire to learn more about the practice as a whole, Nikki began to explore different styles of yoga at various studios on the East Coast. It was always on her heart to share the practice further and she went on to complete her 200-hour yoga teacher training with Peak Beings in 2013. She now teaches students of all levels, from beginners to life-long practitioners. Nikki likes to design her classes based on the energy of those in the room each day with respect to each person's practice. She likes to explore different music while teaching, and finds that beyond alignment, there are endless opportunities for freedom and fun on the mat. She encourages each student to meet his or her own practice where it is each day. Explore your body and soul without fear, and have faith and trust that with practice all is coming.

Hurry Up Alfredo

Hurry Up Alfredo - TastyPlanner.com
Chef: Ashley Bothwell
It's also a great sauce for casseroles, over steamed veggies, on top of lasagna — wherever you want a basic creamy sauce. So not only is it really versatile, but it's also really quick!
The whole sauce is made in a blender, so the faster you can toss ingredients into a blender, the faster it's done. This also makes it super easy for additions. Recently I've been adding whole roasted red peppers (the kind they sell water-packed in jars).
Recipe Source: VeganYumYum
1 Cup soymilk
1/3 Cup Raw, Unsalted Cashews
1/4 Cup nutritional yeast
3 Tbs Low-Sodium Tamari or Soy Sauce
2 Tbs Earth Balance Margarine
1 tbs tahini
1 TBS fresh lemon juice
2 tsp dijon mustard
1/2 tsp Paprika (smoked is awesome)
1 Pinch nutmeg
2-4 Cloves of Garlic, optional
black pepper, to taste
Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. This may work best in a high-speed blender (like a Vita-Mix), but you can definitely make it in a regular blender. Just blend extra-long, or perhaps strain if if you want it perfectly smooth. Tiny bits of cashews won't hurt anyone though!
If you're making this sauce for pasta, drain the pasta and return it to the hot empty pan. Pour the sauce over, place on medium heat, and stir until heated through. Serve with lots of fresh cracked black pepper. I love it with steamed broccoli added in!
