Life Loyal Tri Deltas are members of all ages who continue to reap the advantages of Tri Delta membership long after their college years.
Something deep inside your heart caused you to embrace Tri Delta...Maybe it was a particular sister, or the activities and philanthropic causes of your chapter, or even Tri Delta's ideals and the visibly strong bonds of sisterhood and friendship that resonated with you and sparked your interest. Whatever it was, something spoke to you about the importance of having the Tri Delta family, sisterhood, and privilege in your life -- then, now and forever.
A Life Loyal Membership is perhaps the best way for members to take part in the enduring spirit and heritage of Tri Delta.
Life Loyal Membership comes with no meetings to fit into your hectic schedule, but with the promise of a renewed sense of purpose. There is a "perpetual bond of friendship" that we, as Tri Deltas, talked about in our collegiate years. You are now called to that bond again, so that the strength of your example can serve as guide for your sisters and generations of future Tri Deltas.
Learn the benefits of becoming Life Loyal here.

EVERYBODY'S BUSINESS: Tax credits, veterans events, book sales and more
Just in time for Veterans Day, Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.) has introduced a bill that would expand a tax credit for businesses that hire veterans and turn it into a permanent benefit.
The tax break — up to $5,600 for any business that hires a long-term-unemployed veteran and an extra $4,000 if that veteran has a service-related disability — is called the Work Opportunity Tax Credit for Returning Heroes and Wounded Warriors and is set to expire at the end of the year. Hagan's bill would make the benefit permanent and would also extend it to include military reservists and members of the National Guard.
In other veteran news, Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-N.C.) has filed a bill that would require the VA system to better inform vets in need of a prosthetic limb or orthotic care of their rights and entitlements.
Both of the bills come just in time for Veterans Day on Nov. 11. To celebrate the holiday locally, the annual Lee County veterans appreciation breakfast will be at 8 a.m. Thursday at the Enrichment Center, located at 1615 S. Third St. The event is free to all veterans and active duty personnel, but people must call (919) 776-0501 ext. 2201 by Monday to sign up. Guest speaker will be Lt. Gen. Joseph Anderson, commander of Fort Bragg and the 18th Airborne Corps.
Finally, any veteran goes to a Great Clips hair salon on Veterans Day will get a free haircut. Non-veterans in for a trim that day will get a card to give to any active/inactive/retired military member to redeem for a free haircut before the end of the year. Sanford has two Great Clips, one near the Lowes Foods in the Spring Lane Galleria and the other near the Food Lion in Tramway Crossing.

A previous house show report reported that there were only 200 fans when the individual who submitted the report arrived for the pre-show autograph session. This led to confusion about the show's attendance, and some websites have mentioned that there were only 200 fans there.
There were only 200 fans there with an hour before the show, but the rest then arrived shortly after.

Aransas Pass boys headed to state basketball tournament
SEGUIN - For the past year, Aransas Pass felt a trip to the state tournament was stolen from it by a controversial call in the final seconds of its Region IV-2A final loss Winnie East Chambers in 2013.
On Saturday afternoon, the Panthers stole that state title berth right back, forcing turnovers on Hallettsville's first three possessions to spark a runaway 66-45 victory in the IV-2A final at Seguin High School.
The Panthers will begin play in the state tournament Friday at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin. Their opponent and game time will be revealed Sunday by the University Interscholastic League.

I found
your eyes
so randomly,
your face did
not exist
No waist
to place my
arms around,
no lips for me
to kiss
No hair
to lose my
fingers in,
nor ear to
whisper sweet
No one
to hide within
my heart, to
fall in love
so deep
Your image
I saw by
a beautiful
vision to see
You held
me there with
just a look, as
you stared back
at me
Your eyes,
those lips, that
lovely face,
my feelings are
all for not
For you
are more
than a world
away, my beauty

The film 'Noah' might be doing well at the box office, but it has also engendered some renewed interest in the 'real' reproduction of Noah's Ark, moored on a canal in The Netherlands.
Johan Huibers and his Ark
Moored in the city of Dordrecht, just south of Rotterdam, Holland, the now familiar landmark is visible bobbing against the extremely flat and floodprone landscape, where Johan Huibers realised his 20-year quest to build a full-scale, functioning model of Noah's Ark.
Huibers relied on the Bible for the boat's measurements, using books 6-9 of Genesis as his inspiration, following the instructions God gives Noah down to the last cubit.
Translating to modern measurements, Huibers came up with a vessel that works out to a whopping 427 feet (130 meters) long, 95 feet (29 meters) across and 75 feet (23 meters) high. Perhaps not big enough to fit every species on Earth, two by two, as described in the Bible, but plenty of bulk to create quite an impression, particularly as it's filled with plastic animals.
Elsewhere on the ark is a petting zoo with live animals such as ponies, dogs, sheep, and rabbits and an impressive aviary of exotic birds. It also boasts a restaurant on the upper level and a movie theatre with a capacity for 50 people. Around the edges of each level of the craft are displays on ancient Middle Eastern history and dress, scenes from the life of Noah, and games for kids, including water pumps and a system of levers to lift bales of hay.
There is plenty of storage in hatches should the need arise for setting forth, and Huibers is even considering touring Europe or further afield with his awesome Ark.
Huibers, a builder by trade, says the concept began after a nightmare he had in 1992, when the low-lying Netherlands was flooded, as it has been many times.
Huibers thinks that floods of Biblical proportions are still possible, especially given the impact of global warming. He referred to a New Testament passage prophesying that 'the cities of the coast shall tremble' near the end of times.
Preparing for a flood is a secondary aim, as the builder said he wants to make people think what their purpose is here on Earth. 'I want to make people question that so that they go looking for answers', and ultimately find salvation through God and eternal life, he said.
Huibers has also written the story of his quest, releasing his autobiography 'The Unsinkable Dream', which his website describes as 'a compelling, moving and yet humorous account of what led him to build Noah's Ark'.

Heanor Memorial Hospital: Thousands sign petition calling for asbestos-hit hospital to re-open
Posted: March 12, 2014|
A PETITION containing more than 3,000 signatures has been handed in to the House of Commons in a bid to save Heanor Memorial Hospital from closure.
The hospital has been temporarily closed to patients since last year, after asbestos was discovered in a boiler room during a routine inspection by staff in September.
It means clinics and services have been moved to Ilkeston Community Hospital for the time being.
Since then, bosses at the Southern Derbyshire Clinical Commissioning Group have been looking at the hospital's future and come up with several options.
Related content
These included replacing the hospital with a new £1.6 million building or refurbishing the 89-year-old hospital, at a cost of £850,000.
During a public meeting about the hospital in January, Andy Layzell, chief officer of NHS Southern Derbyshire, said it would not be demolished without another NHS building put in its place on the site.
But Amber Valley MP Nigel Mills MP has now presented a petition to the Commons, to highlight concerns about the hospital's closure.
He said it showed "the strength of feeling" about the hospital and health provision in the town.
The petition calls on NHS Southern Derbyshire to allocate "sufficient resources" to ensure the hospital is re-opened and asks the Commons to call on the Government to take "all possible steps to ensure that the hospital remains open and that health provision in the town is enhanced, not diminished".
Speaking in the House of Commons, Mr Mills said: "It is with great pleasure that I present this petition, signed by more than 3,000 of my constituents, showing the extent of feeling about the closure of the Heanor Memorial hospital."
Outside of Parliament, he continued: "I organised this petition in response to uncertainty about the future of the hospital. I was very glad to see so many people at a subsequent meeting held by NHS Southern Derbyshire about the future of the hospital.
"It's vitally important this service is re-opened and NHS Southern Derbyshire has allocated resources so that it can work to re-open it.
"The group wants to hear local residents' views on what they would like to see on the site. This is good news – and I'm looking forward to seeing progress."

Teens give up technology for spring break
Pioneer camp consists of basic needs
150 youth from the San Antonio Texas North Stake, from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints took up the challenge of a 3-day pioneer trek.
The dedicated youth decided to spend three days of their spring break roughing it at the Y-O Ranch in Mountain Home. They learned to live life as the pioneers once did, without the modern conveniences of cell phones, iPods, TV, and video games.
On day 2 of the retreat, retreatant Emmie Eyden said, "I never realized before how much time I spend using social media and stuff like that."
Youth leader Paul Brown said during the 3 days on the ranch, the youth participated in pioneer activities including Dutch oven cooking, candle making, and black powder shooting. They also pushed and pulled handcarts through rough terrain for nearly 20 miles.
"Youth these days don't get an opportunity to do hard things enough and we felt this would be a good opportunity for that to happen," said Paul Brown a youth leader at the retreat.
While on the retreat, the teens were also broken up into 13 families. Church leaders hope this experience has taught them to gain a better understanding of what true living is all about.
"We try to teach them to help others to not only be takers but givers," said Brown.
Retreatant Jada Martinez said, "Electronics are more of a physical need and I don't really need that to go on with my life."
The teens were asked to bring little more than a sleeping bag, a jacket, a change of clothes, a plate, spoon and cup. They left behind their watches, cell phones, and make-up. The retreat will end on Wednesday.

|An engrailed cross in gold with a golden fiddle in the first and third quarters, a golden sword in the second and fourth.[2]
Daemon II Blackfyre was the third son of Daemon I Blackfyre. He used the alias John the Fiddler, a hedge knight, while traveling incognito through the Seven Kingdoms. He led the brief Second Blackfyre Rebellion. As John the Fiddler his coat of arms was an engrailed cross in gold with a golden fiddle in the first and third quarters, a golden sword in the second and fourth.[3]
Character and Appearance
When meeting him under the alias of 'Ser John the Fiddler', Dunk describes Daemon II as "a young man lean and lithe, with a comely clean-shaved face and fine features"[3] and with collar-length black hair and eyes that catch the deep blue of his doublet. Later, when revealing himself as the son of Daemon I Blackfyre, he has washed the black dye from his hair to reveal its silver-gold colour and earlier Dunk notes he has "Egg's eyes".
George R. R. Martin has confirmed that Daemon was homosexual.[4]
The Mystery Knight
Under the guise of Ser John, Daemon happens across Ser Duncan the Tall and Egg while heading to Whitewalls for the tourney that Lord Ambrose Butterwell was having.[3] During the wedding, he was given a place of honor on the dais, uncommon for someone supposed to be a hedge knight. After the bedding had taken place, Daemon, still under the guise of John, approached Duncan and told him about the dreams he was having, about Duncan wearing a white cloak in the future. He tried to win Duncan over to his side, but Duncan remained unsure and then they were interrupted by Lord Gormon Peake.
During the tourney, Daemon unseated Ser Franklyn Frey and Ser Galtry the Green.[3] After Ser Glendon Flowers was charged with the theft of the dragon egg that was the grand prize of the tourney, it was brought to the attention of Daemon that Glendon had been framed.[3] Daemon revealed his true identity and gave Glendon the power to defend himself against the charges by a trial by battle with Daemon himself. Glendon, still suffering from the affects of being tortured, defeated Daemon in the first tilt of their joust.[3]
News quickly spread that Lord Brynden Rivers was marching on Whitewalls to end what had become the Second Blackfyre Rebellion. Daemon tried to inspire the arms men who were within the castle, but they had no intention of fighting for such a weak warrior. Daemon then met the oncoming army and offered to do single battle but was arrested instead by Brynden Rivers. Rivers intended to keep him alive as a hostage to block Bittersteel from crowning Daemon's younger brother, Haegon.[3]

CLEMSON Clemson sophomore wide receiver Martavis Bryant was suspended for the Dec.31 Chick-fil-A Bowl game against LSU for academic reasons. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney made the announcement Tuesday.
Bryant has 10 receptions for 305 yards and four touchdowns in 10 games. He leads the nation in yards per catch among players with at least 10 receptions.
Morris interviews
Texas Tech athletic director Kirby Hocutt flew into Anderson to meet with Clemson offensive coordinator Chad Morris on Tuesday.
Hocutt spoke to reporters at the Anderson Regional Airport and said Texas Tech is seeking a replacement for departed head coach Tommy Tuberville as soon as possible.
Hocutts plane traveled from Houston, where he is speculated to have met with Texas A&M offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury about the position.
Morris and Kingsbury were reported to be right at the top of Texas Tech footballs list, according to the Lubbock (Tex.) Avalanche-Journal.
Kingsbury was a former quarterback at Texas Tech and coached Heisman-winning quarterback Johnny Manziel this fall.
Tuberville took the Cincinnati job last week.
Kiper on Boyd, Hopkins
ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper had some welcomed words for the Clemson football coaching staff. Kiper told reporters in a conference call he is of the opinion Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd and receiver DeAndre Hopkins should return for their senior seasons in 2013.
Boyd is expected to return as he is viewed as a mid- to late-round draft choice. Boyds father, Tim, told The Post and Courier last month he also thinks his son should return.
Boyd, at 6-1, lacks the height of a prototype NFL quarterback, and that is hurting his draft stock.
I believe seniors who are coming out are so much better served in the NFL, Kiper said. You ask so much of a rookie that extra year helps. One more year of NFL evaluations is big.
Boyd is not going to get any taller, but he can get more experience.
Hopkins is projected as a second-round pick.
While Hopkins would have a hard time bettering his numbers as a senior he caught 69 passes for 1,214 yards and 16 TDs this fall Kiper thinks he could benefit from being participating in the Senior Bowl and other postseason workouts attended by scouts.

Facebook Camera and Facebook Messenger are very slick apps on iOS, but the app for the Facebook client lagged behind. While the core features were good, the interface could be clumsy, it could take forever to load, and certain pages wouldn't update properly. Facebook version 5.0 for iPhone and iPad advertises ease of use and improved speed. So let's take a look at the improvements and see what changes were made.
The photos have been improved to behave more like Facebook Camera. I find that opening photos is now far faster, as they do not seem to just open new web pages as with the previous version. The pictures in the news feed simply fill the screen when tapped, and can be dismissed by swiping up or down on the screen. Comments within photographs now appear in a white 'Web 2.0′ rectangle, similar in appearance to the iPhone's built in twitter client. It is now possible to 'like' individual comments from the photo browser.
Facebook now notifies when you have additional stories in your news feed, with a notification bar that contains the number of updates. Just tap on the to see the new stories loaded on the top of your page. You don't need to pull down the feed to refresh. The new comments are already loaded.
There are a few minor interface changes around the app. Names in notifications are now black and bold instead of blue; pages display a message while loading; and the banner buttons for Status, Photo, and Check In have been tweaked. The menu bar is still on the edge of the screen, largely unchanged.
As for speed, Facebook 5.0 definitely feels more responsive than in previous versions. The scrolling isn't entirely smooth on my aging iPhone 4, it's a little jerky as if there are occasional missing frames in animation, but at least it does not lag or pause.
Overall, while Facebook 5.0 is faster, easier to use, and has lifted Facebook Camera's photo viewer, it's still Facebook. All the services you know and love still work, all the privacy concerns you may have had are still there, the app just doesn't feel as dated as it previously did.

Winning a Grand Prix du Design (recognizing excellence in design in Quebec), in the category Commercial Space: Boutiques (1,600 square feet and under), is Ruscio Studio – for its latest Solara shoe store, in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu.
One of the primary needs of Solara, which had two branches at the time (one in Granby, the other in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield), was to expand. The second requirement was to define its brand so that malls will be interested in giving them a prime location allowing them to easily reach their target customers.
One of the decisions made towards branding was not to sell unisex but rather to focus on women, especially on typical women 30 years of age. The retailer was very limited by its internal structure and staff resources; therefore Ruscio Studio had to create a visual impact without the need for regular maintenance.
The remarkable ceiling of shoes is an expression of creativity and originality of the brand Solara. More than 6,500 discontinued women's shoes were sprayed white and all mounted to the ceiling one by one. The audacious visual focuses on a particular demographic group, becoming an integral part of the concept, and more easily visible from the mall.
The result was an immediate success and has exceeded the expectations of the owner/client and customers. Sales have increased dramatically, to the point that Solara is negotiating with other malls to open new branches this spring.

In 1920, "The Chateau" was built as a summer home for Ernest and Maude Goff, and their children. The family, originally from Saginaw, Michigan, made its fortune in iron mines there, and in lumber in the Pacific Northwest. The 250 acres of land now Chateau St. Jean vineyards were initially planted with white grapes. Prohibition curtailed grape growing, however, and the family opted to grow prunes and walnuts instead.
When Chateau St. Jean was established in 1973, the decision was made to preserve the Goff legacy. "The Chateau" was fully restored and opened to the public. It has since been listed in the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

I came to Jake's for dinner a few weeks ago and wasn't a fan. I thought the service was poor, the staff was completely uninterested. I disliked the atmosphere too.
Posted by jackiebee on 03/02/2010
Jake's was one of my favorite restaura nts at one time, but it keep going downhill.
Posted by Pat on 02/20/2010
Great food! Excellent service! Our waitress was really nice and helpful! Great atmosphere! Will definitely be back!!

I read the review below and have to say, I totally diagree. My husband and I have eaten at Jake's several times and have always enjoyed ourselves. Yes, the staff is young, but that does not mean they are inexperienced. In fact, we have always felt the service to be very polished and unobtrusive. The maître' d really does a nice job working the room and mingling with the guests. He is also very knowledgeable and helpful with the wine list. The food is also superb. I hear they are opening a wine bar next door which should do great in manayunk. Perhaps the previous reviewer had a bad experience or was there on an off night, but should definitely give the place another shot.

I am new to the NWest and heard this was the best restaurant in Manyunk so I took my fiancee there for his birthday on a Saturday night. The place is crammed and loud, but we could have dealt with that. When the host brought us to the table, I sat right in crumbs which were left all over the booth. They placed us in the back by the noisy clueless servers crashing dishes at the wait station which could easily be shielded by a door or curtain. We waited 15 minutes for our inexperienced server to tell us the specials, then take another 15 to bring us wine in which she left cork floating in the glass and then disapperaed until dessert. We were interrupted periodically by unmannered bus boys saying loudly "Clear that ?" and not once greeted with a "Good Evening" or "How is everthing?" Then the valet disappeared and could not find people's keys in the big cardboard box he threw them into in his car. The food was good but the place is run by a bunch of kids who don't bwo the first thing about service. Huge disappointment - amateur all the way. We will head back to Center City if we want a nice meal next time.

Morehouse College has a new president, John Silvanus Wilson Jr., who was the executive director of President Obama's White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
Wilson will be the 11th president in the Atlanta school's 145-year history. He will follow Robert Franklin and be tasked with maintaining the college's reputation while making advances in fundraising, graduation rates and retention.
A 1979 graduate, Wilson is no stranger to Morehouse. In 2007, he and Calvin Butts, pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem, were finalists for the presidency, which went to Franklin.
At the White House Initiative, Wilson tried to strengthen the capacity of the nation's 105 recognized black colleges by working with the White House, federal agencies and private corporations to secure funding. Education Secretary Arne Duncan and Obama, who called on Wilson to continue "to inspire more of our nation's youth to pursue higher education," raved about the hiring.

By Army Lt. Col. David KonopSpecial to American Forces Press Service
KITGUM, Uganda, Oct. 15, 2009 When Staff Sgt. John Okumu joined the Army five years ago, he never dreamed he would one day deploy to Africa, the continent he once called home.
Okumu, originally from Kenya, was among the first U.S. soldiers setting up operations for Natural Fire 10, a multinational exercise set to begin tomorrow in northern Uganda with more than 1,000 servicemembers from the United States and five East African
During a recent visit to Kitgum High school, Okumu, a logistics noncommissioned officer, found himself surrounded by curious teens eager to learn more about the American sergeant who speaks their language.
Okumu welcomed such an ambush, responding to a barrage of questions from the students. Within minutes, a circle of a dozen students grew into a crowd of 60 or more.
"How can I go to the United States and become a soldier like you?" one teen asked.
What began as an impromptu discussion grew into a huddle of dozens hanging onto Okumu's every word. He told them how important it is for them to do well in school and reach for their goals.
"Education in the key," he said. "Everyone has a talent. You just need to find out what yours is."
The students paid close attention and asked many questions. At one point, they broke into laughter after a student asked a question the others thought was silly. Okumu was quick to jump in, telling the students never to be afraid to learn by asking.
"There's no such thing as a stupid question, except to the question that's never asked," he said.
The conversation went on in English, which the teens learn in their classes. But they initially were drawn to Okumu when they heard him speak Luo, the language spoken in northern Uganda, which Okumu learned as a child in Kenya. He emigrated from Kenya to the United States in 2000, settling in Missouri.
Okumu is assigned to a group of 21st Theater Sustainment Command soldiers tasked with constructing a base camp in Kitgum and providing logistical support for Natural Fire 10, an exercise co-led by U.S. Army Africa, a component of U.S. Africa Command, and the East
African Community Armed Forces.
Hundreds of soldiers from Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda will join U.S. troops for the 10-day exercise, which has been held in East Africa every two years for the past decade. The exercise includes training in humanitarian missions, natural disasters, convoy operations, crowd
control, weapons handling and vehicle checkpoints.
U.S. and East African troops also will provide medical, dental and engineering support to local communities. Engineer projects will be conducted at the Kitgum High School, Mucwini Primary School and Kitgum Government Hospital -- where students anxiously anticipate more interaction with Okumu and his fellow Americans.
Okumu looks forward to seeing them again soon. During their recent chat, he made sure they understood the importance of education to their future success.
"Good grades and test scores may qualify you for scholarships to the U.S.," Okumu said. "Do your best."
(Lt. Col. David Konop serves with U.S. Army Africa public affairs.)

The sad thing is the odds get worse every year as more people buy into the points game.
I think 1% is pretty good odds compared to alot of places. I apply in my home state because it dont cost much and I apply in Nevada because I apply for deer/elk/antelope and trophy species dont cost alot more there either. Other then that I havent seen any place that I think is worth it to start building points (worth it to me anyways).
The sad thing is the odds get worse every year as more people buy into the points game.
Well this sucks haha. It's slightly depressing to think that my best odds are paying 14000+ for a dall hunt in Alaska might be the cheapest sheep hunt other than the Barbary here in NM.
Atleast the Alaska hunt if you pay the money you can actually go on it. Here you could put alot of money into alot of states and never draw. I have been thinking about looking into the Barbary sheep in NM!
I have max points in Wyoming for deer, and one for antelope and none for elk. Here in Colorado I have 13 for antelope and 5 for deer and 3 for elk. None anywhere else.
The Wyoming deer situation is pretty bad as the unit I want is only a 5% draw with max points, I am probably going to use them on another unit soon. (at my age I can't just keep buying points for a hunt that might never happen) I'll keep buying antelope tags as my hunting buddy and I can draw what we want every couple of years.
Colorado antelope is a different story. The Hybrid draw is used on the unit I really want to hunt (I'm 1 behind on pts). I drew it in 2012 with less than what was needed because of the Hybrid. Unfortunately I turned it in before season opened because I had to go to Calif on a family emergency...got all my points back! I can draw the deer and elk tag I want every 2 or 3 years here, so I'll keep getting points. Once I use up all my antelope point, won't buy any more.
Colorado is in their planning process for the next 5 years right now and they are asking for public comments on the PP situation...looks like were are in for a big change, at least that's the rumor.

One other thing to look at are raffle hunts, I know it's a gamble, but the odds are related to how much money you spend, plus a hunt with a much longer season and extended area.
I will use Oregon as an example(Oregon does not a have points sytem for sheep): In Oregon a non resident has to buy a non refundable liscense + app fee = totaL of $148.50 to apply for one of the very few draw hunts available to a non-res with draw odds in the the .9% to .3% range. Then IF you were lucky enough to draw then you have to buy the tag for $1300.50! You would have $1448.50 into your tag.
In the raffle you can have better odds at that cost and hunt any unit in the state for 2 months. If you were to spend $1448 on raffle tickets you would have about a 5% chance of winning the raffle according to last years ticket sales. WANNA GAMBLE?
i agree timber. Raffles are a good way to get your name in the hat more times and some offer better odds then applying for a tag. I think I would rather spend the $148 on raffle tickets then the hunting license.
That raffle is interesting.

If there is such a thing as a rock star in the animal welfare business, it might be Temple Grandin.
She has single-handedly improved the lives of countless livestock -- millions of animals from the foothills of Colorado to the Canadian plains. Her animal welfare guidelines have become the gold standard in the $80 billion meat packing industry.
At her suggestion, electric prods have been replaced with plastic paddles. Workers are trained not to shout at the cattle, and plants are regularly audited to determine how well they're reducing animal stress.
Today, more than half the cattle in the United States and Canada are processed through cattle handling systems that she has designed.
But the key to the 57-year-old Grandin's expertise is not just her doctorate in animal science. Rather, it's the fact that she's autistic -- and her belief that animals and autistics perceive the world in similar ways.
"I don't like seeing people abuse cattle. Cattle feel fear, cattle feel pain," Grandin told ABC News' Jay Schaedler. "We owe animals a decent life."
In her current best seller, "Animals in Translation," Grandin argues that both autistics and animals are hypersensitive -- skittish in a sense -- to the tiniest changes in their environments.
They perceive the world not through words or a written language, but through their senses: Sounds, smells, touch and sight.
Animals are visual thinkers, she said. One of her favorite examples is the squirrel, who buries his nuts in a wide variety of different places.
"How does he remember that?" she asked. "After the nut has been buried, the squirrel rears up -- click -- and like takes a picture of what the surroundings look like. And then they store all these pictures."
Grandin said this is the same way she finds her car when she parks at the airport.
Many autistics are also visual thinkers, Grandin said. She likened her mind to "Google for Images": "If you put in a key word it pulls up pictures," she said.
This kind of perspective helped Grandin when she was called upon to redesign a feedlot. She took a cattle's eye view of the facility, recording what it would be like for an animal to move through it.
She saw how the cattle -- like some people with autism -- would fixate on sensory details: a coat hung on a fence or a man walking in front of a chute. A scrap of paper might even spook them.
So she redesigned the old square pens into long curved metal chutes, eliminating sharp edges while taking advantage of cattle's natural instinct to walk in circles.
"The reason for making it curved is because the cattle come on around the bend, they think they're going back to where they came from."
Grandin's animal welfare crusade has often been waged one rancher at a time. She was not only an unwelcome presence because she would get upset when animals were being handled poorly, but because she was often a lone woman among cowboys and ranchers.
"I got kicked out of a feed yard in the '70s because they said the cowboys' wives wouldn't like it and then they went and decorated my car with bull testicles," she said.
Grandin is comfortable in mainstream society today, but she has had a long struggle with her autism. She didn't speak until she was 4 years old.

text: Appendix C. Environmental Scan Process Clinical-Community Relationships Measures (CCRM) Atlas The environmental scan focused on identifying previous work that may be relevant to measuring the structures and processes surrounding effective clinical-community relationships for prevention. A resource was deemed relevant if it highlighted some form of relationship between a clinical and community resource and evaluated the relationship in some manner. Beyond surveying published peer-reviewed articles, unpublished literature such as dissertations, white papers, and other forms of publicly available information were included in the search. The environmental scan was performed in two phases—a literature review and a Web search. The scan did not evaluate identified resources for the quality of methods used or research rigor.For the literature review, iterative database searches were conducted. Various combinations of terms were searched and citation titles and abstracts were scanned to determine if the content related to measures of clinical-community relationships. As part of the search strategy, the following search parameters and terms were employed to facilitate the scanning of databases:Search Parameters. The following parameters for database searches of published literature were employed:English language.2000 – present.United States and international.Exclusion of editorials, commentaries, and book reviews.Search Terms. A list of keywords was generated and then grouped into four categories:Terms relating to community resources.Terms dealing with clinical practices.Terms describing relationships; and.Terms related to measures.Table C-1 contains a complete list of search terms used for both the literature review and the Web search.Table C-1.

Within an article, the goal was to find at least one of the terms within the column; thus, using "OR" between all of the terms within a column. There was also an interest in the combination of terms across columns, therefore the "AND" term was used for terms across columns. For example, a search incorporating both concepts of measurement and relationships would proceed as follows: ("effectiveness" OR "metric" OR "measurement" OR "evaluation") AND ("referrals" OR "sharing" OR "system" OR "linkage"). Further, variants of the search terms were included; for example, "medical home" and "medical homes." Along with the four categories mentioned, exact phrases were searched, including "clinical community relationships," "clinical community linkages," and "clinical community partnerships."Experts were also identified in the field of clinical-community relationships and a search of publications since 2007 was conducted; these experts are listed in Table C-2.Table C-2.

In order to determine this, the articles were analyzed for the following information:Clinical Setting. What clinical setting participated in the relationship? The clinical setting must focus on primary care.Prevention. What prevention strategy is the relationship addressing? Specifically, which U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommendation(s)?.Community Setting. What nonclinical community resource/entity participated in the relationship?.Nature of Relationship. Is there a formal relationship between/among the clinical setting and community? Are resources shared? What processes fostered the relationship?.Denominator. Specifies which members of the eligible population are to be counted in the denominator.Numerator. A count of the members of the denominator who achieved specified outcomes.Data Source(s). How are the data collected? This may include claims data, community assessments, or surveys.A total of 534 unduplicated abstracts were reviewed and, ultimately, 9 articles describing 20 measures were included from the literature search. An additional 4 measures were found in the Internet search for a combined total of 24 measures. Initially, only articles describing a linkage or relationship between a primary care clinical setting and a nonclinical community organization were included. Articles that focused on mental health settings were ultimately included, however, but only when it was determined that measures from these articles could be adapted for primary care settings.

In SharePoint 2010 New Features, Simon Allardice highlights the new tools and user interface enhancements Microsoft includes in the 2010 version of SharePoint Server. This course covers document collaboration and the social computing features in SharePoint, editing pages, creating themes, and integration with Office 2010. Improvements to the user interface, as well as updated permission controls, are also demonstrated.
For normal day-to-day operations in SharePoint, you don't need SharePoint Designer, but if you're planning on customizing your sites, either the way they look or the way they behave, you're going to want this application. SharePoint Designer 2010 is a free download from Microsoft. In previous versions you'd find it under the Microsoft Office set of tools but these days when it's installed, it typically installs under a SharePoint section. When I open up SharePoint Designer, it will ask me either to tell it the address of an existing SharePoint site or create a new one.
I'm going to open an existing one, which really means I just need to give it the name of the URL to that site. Now if you'd used SharePoint Designer 2007, you'll immediately notice that the user interface is significantly different this time around and that's because we've moved away from the idea of trying to show us the SharePoint site as if it was a conventional website, like you were using Dreamweaver or a conventional web design tool, into more of a SharePoint- centric view of the site, which is what seeing now and I believe much more useful way of looking at it.
With this site open, on the left-hand side of the screen we have the Navigation pane, which allows us to browse through the different components that make up our SharePoint site. I can select from my Lists and Libraries, from my Workflows or my Master Pages or Security Groups. Selecting any of these options will not only change the main part of the screen, but will also change the Ribbon along the top part of the user interface. Because like SharePoint itself, like the Office applications, the Ribbon is context-sensitive to what we have selected.
So if I have my Lists and Libraries selected in the Navigation section, I'll see the options to create a new SharePoint list or create a custom list or a document library. The way you can build out a website in SharePoint by using the browser is also replicated in here. So if you'd prefer to use SharePoint Designer to do all of your site creation, you could certainly do that. Now when people are new to SharePoint Designer, I often find they underestimate this application. It's a very common misunderstanding that what you use SharePoint Designer for is to change the way these sites look.
Their color schemes and their fonts and that's certainly something that you can do but it's much, much more than that. I like to think of SharePoint Designer as being used for four main reasons. You use it for branding, changing the way the sites look, you use it for workflows and defining business processes, you use it for connecting your web pages to external sources of data and use it for creating new entry forms. So let's take those four things one-by-one. The first thing, the most commonly understood piece, is the branding piece.
The idea that this site has a certain look and feel to it and we can change that. And very commonly, when you're working with the way that your site looks, you might be tempted to go to your site pages, but bear in mind, SharePoint generates most of the pages for you. So in fact, the most interesting piece that you're looking for is in your Master Pages section. Now depending on how your sys admin has this configured, you may not see this option because they have to allow master pages to be edited. But if I select Master Pages and then select v4.master, which is the default master page for a SharePoint 2010 site, it's going to first give me a lot of information about this file, who it was created by, what version it is, but I do have an option to edit it, and this will open it up in the conventional Designer view, allowing me to change the master page, and whatever change I would make here would affect every page in this SharePoint site.
So if I wanted to take my Quick Launch bar and move it over to the right-hand side, I could do that. Now if you're used to other conventional web design tools like Dreamweaver, you might also be used to the idea of shifting from the WYSIWYG, what you see is what you get view, into the Code view or even into a combination of the two. When you're editing a master page, you'll have a Style Ribbon, which will allow you to manage cascading style sheets or even attach a new style sheet for your overall design, and if you want to make a significant visual change to your SharePoint site, you're certainly going to want to use SharePoint Designer.
But that's only reason one of four to use this application. The next reason for using SharePoint Designer is to create custom workflows. Workflows are business processes, reusable collections of questions and tasks that you can have happen automatically when say a new document is created or a list item is changed. New in SharePoint Designer 2010 is the idea of both creating a Reusable Workflow, something we couldn't do before because all workflows had to be attached to a specific list or library, and you can even edit the existing out-of-the-box workflows that SharePoint provides like the Approval or Collect Signatures workflow.
Creating a workflow still requires no code. If you want to create say a workflow on the documents library for checking for a title, if you want to for example, create a workflow on a Document Library to make sure people don't upload policy documents into that library, your workflow is essentially a series of conditions and actions where you're going to ask questions. What is the name of this document, how big is it. Your conditions are things like, if it was created by a specific person, or the file size is a certain size, or in our case the Title field contains certain keywords.
You can then perform all sorts of actions such as sending an email to the user or checking it out, or updating another list such as the Task list. Workflows in SharePoint are an area you can spend significant time on and they've not only improved the workflow creation process in SharePoint Designer, but if you're someone who prefers working in Visio, you can actually use it in SharePoint 2010 to define and create custom workflows by visually putting together the flow of operations.
The third reason for using SharePoint Designer is you can select something called data sources. In a typical SharePoint site, your data sources are just your list and your libraries. But using SharePoint Designer, we can also define new data sources to a database or a web services connection or an XML file, which gives you actually a way of creating pages in your SharePoint sites that are using this external data as a source of information. The fourth primary reason for using SharePoint Designer is it allows you to make new forms and by forms I mean the web pages where you add, edit, or delete items in your list and your libraries.
If I go into a simple list like the Links list here, the summary information that I'm being shown includes the views of this list. I can also create new views in SharePoint Designer, and the forms that this list uses. The three forms being shown up here, DispForm, EditForm, and NewForm, are your display, edit and new forms. If you want to change one of those for example, the NewForm, we can open that up in SharePoint Designer, and I could do some basic changing about the way that this looks but I could also decide to create a new form for this Links list, and design it from scratch. I could even have the option of designing it using InfoPath.
SharePoint Designer 2010 should not be underestimated. It allows you to do way more than just design. If you're wanting to perform significant customization of the way that your sites look and the way that they behave with workflow, custom forms, effectively writing your own custom applications without code, this is the program to do it in.

Q:Is Bill Belton's ankle becoming an issue again? Or was today a result of Zach Zwinak being the hot back today?
Q:You felt like you could move the ball. You get the ball back at the end of the third quarter and go to the no-huddle. How much of a benefit is to be able to go to that? How effective do you think it was today, especially on those two touchdown drives.
Q:You guys are continuing to go for it on fourth down. Are the guys starting to take to these do-or-die situations on the field?
Q:What have you guys done in practice to address not leaving points on the board?
Q:In the first half, you appeared to be yelling at the referee and Pat Fitzgerald. Can you share what you said to him?
Q:Did the fumbled punt let some air out of you guys in the first half?
Q:On the third down play you scored on, did you make up your mind what you were going to do on fourth down? Did it depend on the down and distance?
Q:With it being Homecoming and with everything the kids have gone through and the community has gone through, how gratifying is it to you to see people enjoying this?

Q:Do you believe in any indicator from your team after a game like this?
Q:Speaking of situational football, what kind of situation was that for you as a coach after they returned the punt for the touchdown?
Q:What is the plan for the bye week as far as practices and schedules?
Q:What can you say about the offense balance in the second half, using the run to set up the play-action pass?
Q:What goes into the decision to go for it on fourth-and-four on the six-yard line instead of kicking the field goal to make it a one-possession game?
Q:On Matt [McGloin's] touchdown run, did he have a run-pass option there or did he just decide to take it?

Teen bride Courtney Stodden has one crazy life. We would try to explain it, but she really says it best:
"A typical day for me is crazy, let me tell you," she says. "I get up out of bed in the sexiest outfit you've ever seen. My hair is done, my makeup's done. I get up at around 12 p.m. I make my mocha. I don't care about anything else."
Ah, the life of a princess.

BitchTapes: Queercore Now & Forever More!
Welcome then to the second installment of Queercore Now and Forever More! I regret to am thrilled to inform you that the last BitchTapes devoted to contemporary queer music was incomplete. Limited to under 20 tracks with links flickering to former + side projects, there is so much more queer music to share with you reader/listener! Plus, after Not Enough! and the self-motivating cultural ripples the Portland-based queer arts/music festival creates, a heap of queer projects in the Northwest alone have started up since the last mix 10 months back. Check out the latest tracks from Queercore's lesser-known-soon-to-be-faves as well as established contemporary artists:
Queercore Now & Forever More from BitchTapes on 8tracks.
1. Forever - Blackout
This surfy post-punk four-piece is made up of queer superheroes. Reason 1). Members Sheana Corbridge and Jen Nigg organize Not Enough! every year with their friends. Reason 2). The above-mentioned also run queer feminist label Punkstartmyheart with their friends. I'm guessing the other two band mates are doing wicked shit we should all look into immediately.
2. Making Friendz - Situation
She may be in MEN now, but Queercore original Tami Hart is still finding time for her dancey+dreamy solo project, Making Friendz, in her tour-saturated schedule.
3. Lovers - No Regrets
Honestly, I was never a diehard fan of Lovers...no, not until their latest anthemic record. WARNING: if you haven't done so already, you will ruin Dark Light for yourself and anyone in earshot if you succumb to the 24-hour-7-day-a-week playing schedule that this record seems to suggest is a good idea.
4. Kumbia Queers - Tropikalipsis
All female Argentine queer garage punk. Boom.
5. Black Cracker - Satellite
This track is off Black's upcoming record Tears Of A Clown out this April. Poetic and heavyhearted in a refreshingly candid way, Black's solo work looms large beside his former acclaimed art-hop project, Bunny Rabbit, and is bound to blow up this year.
6. Xiu Xiu - Hi
If you've never experienced a decently sized one, Xiu Xiu's live shows tend to draw packs of young queer boys and men in a tightly wound ring of extra strength emotion around the stage. A must-experience. Hi is off their new record Always out this March.
7. Telepathe - Throw Away This
Here's a track from the Brooklyn-based electro-duo's single out this past summer. Just try to hold still.
8. N.213 - Birth
Not the easiest project to track down and not the easiest listening either (but totally worth the cassette player purchase to play). If self-made small pressings of noisy underground hits make you squeal, Nic Hughes a.k.a. N.213 is your god. If checked "yes" above, look at all the releases on Hughes label Isolated Now Waves. Eeeeee!
9. Grass Widow - Shadow
Is an intricately melodic psych track off an LP, Past Time, packed full of others. Let's hope this band has as much longevity as the listenability of this record.
10. Baths - Flux
As much as I love indie hip-hop put out by Baths' record label, Anticon, they have not one woman in their whole artist stable (someone please prove me wrong). I'd like to think Anticon is taking steps to amend this disparity by signing queer artists...truly though, homophobes would sign this band they're so good.
11. Chinawoman - A Woman's Touch
Chinawoman is a solo recording artist from Toronto, ON. Not suitable listening for the overly cheerful.
12. Rae Spoon - Are You Jealous of the Dead
This track is off Spoon's brand new and cleverly titled record, I Can't Keep All Of Our Secrets. Keep watch for Rae Spoon on tour (extensively) in Canada, and with a few US dates in February.
13. Tyler Holmes - Gilded Shells (Slutmix)
I'd like to think that Holmes was at the same or equivalent Xiu Xiu concert, went home that night, wrote a song that eventually became part Ghost Album EP and/or his four other gorgeous records. Even if he isn't a Xiu Xiu fan, I'd still like to see him and Jamie Stewart high five.
14. Sourpatch - Funny Inside
Ever wish that '90s bubblegum punk hadn't died? Wish granted.
15. Very Okay - Where You Go
A likable track by the kind of stand-up band you know will be dependable listening in a variety of locations, activities, and life circumstances. I discovered and free downloaded Very Okay on Soul Ponies "a home for lost and wayward queercore and riot grrrl music."
16. Fucking Lesbian Bitches - Eve
Truth is there are two bands called Fucking Lesbian Bitches living in Portland, OR. These FLB's are my favourite. Bandname(s) aside, isn't it the best when you can hear an older band's influence on a newer band? Two sacred words apply: The Need.
Thanks for listening and to all my friends and artists who contributed to this BitchTapes! What queer music are you listening to these days?
If you don't have a subscription to award-winning 80-page quarterly Bitch magazine, it's definitely time to start one.
