NCSPs are required to maintain proper documentation of their CPD activities but are not required to submit documentation of CPD credits unless their applications are selected for an audit. Approximately 10% of renewing NCSPs are randomly selected for documentation audits and are notified in writing. They are asked to provide documentation so that NASP can verify the activities and CPD hours on the signed affidavit. This notification may be sent at any time after the individual renews his or her NCSP credential. It is recommended that applicants maintain documentation for the duration of their three-year cycle.
An individual selected for audit has 60 calendar days from the date of the notice to submit documentation verifying that they have met all CPD requirements. The NCSP credential will be considered expired if the individual fails to respond within the 60-day time limit.
Once the documentation of credits has been received and processed, the applicant will be notified of the audit results. If it is determined that the documentation has any deficiencies, the applicant will be given 60 calendar days to correct this deficiency. Any deficiency not corrected with the 60-day period will cause the immediate expiration of the NCSP credential.
Documentation submitted for an audit will not be returned. Copies of the documentation are acceptable; please do not submit your originals.

Pilgrim movies are usually positive films about how European settlers outcast from their old country came across the Atlantic and learned to coexist with the Native Americans, starting Thanksgiving together and founding America. If you've studied history at all, you know this is completely inaccurate revisionist history, as the Pilgrims may have gotten along with the natives for a short time before the Americans pushed them out of their territories, killed most of them, and then relegated them to reservations. Not exactly cheery, feel-good stuff. However, there are a few films that get it right and we've got them listed here. Just don't watch them at Thanksgiving.
"The New World"
This excellent movie from visionary director Terrence Malick follows some of the first Pilgrims and explorers on the East Coast of America. Colin Farrell and a pretty Native American girl (who is actually Hawaiian in real life) have a love affair, before they come to realize, quite artistically, that their cultures cannot coexist.
"The Last of the Mohicans"
An excellent war film about the early exploration of the new world and the French and Indian war, in which the British and the French jockey for control of the North American territory. This film made Daniel Day Lewis the movie star he is today as well as a major sex symbol, even though he doesn't look the least bit like a Native American.
"Desperate Crossing"
This History Channel documentary mini-series tells the little known, real-life story of the Pilgrims crossing of the Atlantic to the New World. They hold no punches and tell of the ultimately harsh relationship between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans, seeds of which led to the natives' ultimate demise.
"Mayflower: The Pilgrim's Adventure"
Starring Anthony Hopkins and Robert Crenna, this narrative film tells of the Pilgrims' decision to leave their homeland and head to America, along with all the challenges they met along the way. As the Pilgrims are the heroes in the film, they are ultimately the bad guys, pushing the natives to do their will. Their arrival alone signals the beginning of the end of the Native Americans.
"Squanto: A Warrior's Tale"
This Disney film that is painfully historically inaccurate tells the tale of Squanto, the famous Native American warrior before, during, and after the Pilgrims arrive in 1620. While both the Pilgrims and Squanto are the heroes in this film, there are underlying messages about how the Native Americans are in trouble now that the white man has arrived. As with most Disney films, it's important to look below the surface.
"Little Big Man"
This Dustin Hoffman classic shows how Americans abused and destroyed Native American culture. Hoffman's character realizes what is happening and realizes he can do nothing to stop it. This is the aftermath of the Pilgrims' arrival in the New World and what ultimately happened to Native American culture and life.

Burn Notice: Long Way Back (summer finale)
(S03E09) Wow! Talk about a powerful finale. There were a lot of plot points and emotional issues addressed, and if you had any question about Michael's true loyalty, this show answered it. Burn Notice goes on hiatus -- is that what they call it? -- till the winter, and it's going to be a long rest of the summer and fall waiting for the story to resume. There was change in the air, what with Michael inching closer to a return to the CIA -- or so it seemed. More on all that and the blistering finale after the jump.
I never liked Tom Strickler. He was too irksome for his own good, too full of himself and his estimation of Michael. That, it turns out, was his undoing. Strickler's advice to Michael for acing an interview with the CIA was to tell the truth, but Strickler's version of it. But what was really irritating about Strickler was his insinuating that he was Michael's "partner" and that Strickler was doing what he did -- bringing in Thomas O'Neill to Miami and setting up Fiona for a deadly return to Ireland as O'Neill's prisoner -- was for Strickler and Michael's future together.
Watching Strickler get two shots from Michael -- using his favorite Fiona firearm -- was a turning point. Michael had to make a choice, a future with Strickler or one with Fiona. As Michael said before pulling the trigger, "Fiona is not my past."
There was a bunch of good stuff in this episode, including three great set pieces. To save Fiona from a full-out assault by O'Neill's crew, Michael had to use Mrs. Reynold's vintage Buick as a distraction. You think the producers knew from the start that the cherry red beauty was going to be trashed at some point by Michael? Another other terrific scene was Michael's meet with O'Neill with Sam, Fiona and Sean (her brother) providing back up. When Sean didn't want to turn off the laser sight, you could see how he was more impulsive than his sister. Finally, the boat dock rescue was a true team effort, with Sam and Michael packing heat and Fiona saving herself but nearly drowning in the process.
So Fiona cannot go back to Ireland. She can still leave Miami, but it doesn't seem to be where they're going with this. Fiona had as much trouble thanking Michael as he did trying to say goodbye. They both agreed on one thing: "It's okay. We're no good at this."
Amid the heavy duty emotions of the episode were some lighter ones. Madeline shook Michael to the core by simply hiring a realtor. Even if Michael has horrible memories from that house, it's home. Madeline realized that and removed the listing.
Finally, there was the issue of the burn notice. Diego died -- suicide or homicide, we don't know -- before being able to tell Michael what he knew. People higher up on the ladder were out to get Michael, and they still are. That's the resolution. Michael doesn't know who's after him and that not knowing is a very scary proposition ... How many months till the winter premiere?

A new study finds that physical activity may reduce the risk of lung cancer in current and former smokers. However, smokers still have a much greater risk for lung cancer, regardless of their activity level, than people who've never smoked.
Adult Male Circumcision Reduces Risk of Acquiring HIV
Medically performed circumcision significantly reduces a man's risk of acquiring HIV through heterosexual intercourse, according to an interim review of data from two clinical trials. As a result, NIHs National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) announced an early end to the trials this week.
Brains Fear Center Changes in Autism
People with autism have trouble engaging in give-and-take interactions and relating to others. A new brain imaging study gives insight into how such social deficits relate to patterns of development in the amygdala, the brains fear hub.
Comparing Drugs for Schizophrenia
An economic analysis of a large-scale schizophrenia medication trial suggests that the older, first generation antipsychotic medication perphenazine is less expensive (up to 30 percent less) and no less effective than newer, second generation medications, suggesting that the older medications still have a role in treating schizophrenia.
Disability Among Older Americans Declines
Chronic disability among older Americans has dropped dramatically during the past two decades, according to a new study. The study suggests that older Americans health and function continue to improve at this critical time in the aging of the population.
The Costs and Benefits of Enhanced Depression Care
Outreach and enhanced interventions have been shown to help people with depression, but many employers think such programs would be too expensive to provide for their employees. A new analysis, however, shows that it may be in employers' best interests to offer programs that actively seek out and treat depression.

Monitoring Fetal Oxygen During Labor
Outreach and enhanced interventions have been shown to help people with depression, but many employers think such programs would be too expensive to provide for their employees. A new analysis, however, shows that it may be in employers' best interests to offer programs that actively seek out and treat depression.
Studies Show Benefits of Caregiver Support Programs
Programs designed to support caregivers of people with Alzheimer's disease (AD) can help improve the quality of life for the caregivers and delay nursing home placement of the patients, two new studies have found.
Structured Exercise for Seniors
A structured exercise program may boost the physical well-being of sedentary seniors who are at risk of losing independent functioning, a new study has found. The study also showed that older adults can safely begin a program of moderate exercise.

Buzz: Glen Sather Is Apparently "Itching" To Bring In An Impact Player and Dan Boyle Could Be It
In the Ottawa Sun, Bruce Garrioch lists Dan Boyle as one of the top five players available at the trade deadline.
Garrioch says that the Rangers have been sniffing around Boyle and that Glen Sather has been "itching to make a move to bring in an impact player."
He adds that Boyle doesn't just help on the ice and with the power play, he adds leadership to the dressing room.
THIS SECTION is all about Dan Boyle.
Boyle, after he met with Tortorella and Mike Sullivan after a game in 2009, told a Tampa Bay paper "As I was telling him the other day, we had a lot of ups and downs, a lot of battles. But at the end of the day we both have respect for each other."
Adam Rotter: I don't know if Dan Boyle is the answer to the Rangers defense/power play issues. He certainly provides them with a proper PP QB, logs a lot of minutes and has a history with John Tortorella. If he was a pending UFA I think it would be more of a certain move to make for the Rangers, but with him signed for next season at $6.6 million it's a much tougher decision. The price to get him out of SJ needs to be determined and that may be the biggest issue with finding a match between the two teams.

I started photography as a young man to document where I've visited, people I've met, and special occassions in 1970. I always had the desire to expand into other areas of photography but was frustrated with the slow feedback of film. I started scanning my images and using photo editing software for enhancement in the mid 90's. The advent of digital cameras was what I needed to explore this as a great hobby and more. I'm mostly self taught through magazines, books, the web, and a couple of seminars. I've been encouraged to sell my photos so this is one of the ways I've chosen. Most of my photos have been adjusted in my digital darkroom. George Lepp would call these illustrations because I've gone beyond the normal minor tweaks. I love...

Plea to restrain action against Justice Ganguly
The Supreme Court will Monday hear a public suit seeking to quash the complaint against Justice (retd) A.K. Ganguly, accused of sexually harassing a law intern.
A bench of Chief Justice P. Sathasivam and Justice Ranjan Gogoi said it would hear the plea Monday after petitioner Padma Narayan Singh sought a direction to restrain the government from taking any action against Ganguly.
Singh, who appeared in person, urged the court to quash the complaint as void and illegal as it was also time-barred under the sexual harassment law.
The plea also sought direction to restrain the government from removing Ganguly as chairman of the West Bengal Human Rights Commission and arresting him unlawfully.
Criticising political parties across the spectrum gunning for Ganguly, the petitioner urged the court to act against Additional Solicitor General Indira Jaising as she was acting against professional ethics.
The petitioner said Ganguly was being maligned and was a victim of conspiracy as he had in an arbitration suspended Mohan Bagan for walking out of a football league match against the East Bengal club.
The All India Football Federation subsequently revoked Mohan Bagan's suspension but slapped a Rs.2 crore fine on it.
The government Thursday approved a presidential reference to the apex court for an inquiry against Ganguly on several counts, including the allegation of unwelcome behaviour of sexual nature towards the former law intern during the arbitration of the football matter.

In the Aftermath of Catastrophe
Founding Judaism 70-640
Mcgill-Queen's University Press (Canada), 2009
Size: 163x221 mm
List price: £44.00

In the Aftermath of Catastrophe
Neusner argues that the Judaism that emerged in late antiquity experimented with solutions to a critical and enduring issue of culture that continues to engage humanity - the crisis provoked by calamity. Exemplified in our time by the German war against the Jews from 1933-1945, in antiquity calamity took the form of the destruction in 70 C.E. of the Temple of Jerusalem and the cessation of its sacrifices, putting an end to the cultic calendar by which people had measured the passage of time in the heavens and maintained their relationship with God on earth. Resolution of this crisis required a radical solution, the reversion to prophecy, which had as a consequence restoration of world order Judaism as we know it responded then and continues to respond now to the paramount problem of that day and ours - the end of the old order and the advent of the new.

Childhood Cancer Awareness Month4th December 2012
In the UK and Ireland, one child in 600 develops cancer or leukaemia - that's around 1,700 new cases a year. Sadly, three out of ten children diagnosed with cancer will not survive.
December is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and CCLG members work tirelessly in caring and supporting children and young people, and their parents, families and carer, through their treatment. The aim is to not only cure cancer but also to limit the long-term effects from treatment through research and clinical trials.
Survival for children with cancer in the UK has improved dramatically from less than 10% in 1970 to nearly 80% today. This astounding success is attributed to national collaborations spearheaded by CCLG over the last few decades and the crucial role of our members.
To highlight this amazing achievement over the last few decades, we have published 'Milestones in childhood cancer in the UK and Ireland'.
What do our members do?
'Caring for children - curing their cancer' is our priority. CCLG brings together all relevant healthcare professionals to share best practice, advocate excellence and promote research and development. These include consultant oncologists, doctors, haematologists, paediatric nurses and radiographers as well as pathololgists and surgeons.

But does the end justify the means?
Maybe the "captains of industry" can write an open letter to us on that?
The "I" in "GHIT has hit the fan"
Infosys may be good at writing codes which comprise of "1" and "0" and exporting Indian brain cells via the internet to the rest of the world.
But they seem to be clueless on how to communicate with investors. Their stock price reacts to their quarterly announcements as a child would react to a hot pan - or to a candy. Either the market loves what they say (October 2012), or the market hates what they say (April 2013). With a stock that tumbled over 20% the day Infosys announced their 4Q FY 2013 numbers and gave their guidance for the next year ending March 31, 2014.
But there is something more sinister about what is going on in Infosys - and it's not about their strategy and what they will do with their cash.
It is a more fundamental question: how do they select their key leaders, including their CEO?
Watching their CEO on TV always brings up a fundamental question: is he there in the post of CEO because he was a founder? Or because he, indeed, deserves to be the CEO?
Is that the legacy of Narayan Murthy - the man who is seen to be the king of corporate governance in India?
And, for all their talk on corporate governance, why can't a non-founder be a CEO?
Or, is Infosys a modern version of the "family-run businesses"? In a family business, every heir with the last name as the founder gets a crack at being CEO. In Infosys, does everyone who signed the original shareholders register, get to be a CEO?
The "T" in "GHIT has hit the fan"
The Tata group is seen as the golden boy of good behaviour in corporate and social India.
Well, like HDFC, that sheen has been slowly rubbed off as many companies using the Tata name build out their own "culture" and "business practices".
In the 1980's there was the controversy over the NCPA and the alleged payment of money for cement (then in short supply); many of the Tata satraps or chieftains, were known to be "players" in the stock markets in the 1980's and the 1990's. Arundhati Roy has often written about the alleged theft of minerals from tribal areas by Tata companies. For those who recall the Radia tapes, connected to the 2G scam, there were conversations with Ratan Tata. In West Bengal, there was the ill-fated attempt to set up their Nano factory there. A year later, there was the visit of Ratan Tata to Gujarat and get land there for the Nano project - despite the shadow of Godhra.
And now, there is no Tata at the top.
That's probably good for corporate governance but, guess what?
The person running the show represents the largest shareholder group - the Mistry family.
The Mistry family were shareholders in South India Viscose, shut down since 2001. SIV, located near Sirumugai, had been accused by the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board of releasing untreated effluents into the River Bhavani. After the plant was closed, the company was a "sick" unit and poisonous gases like carbon disulphide were still there on the premises. The BIFR had to auction the gases to other parties who had to clear them away. I may be wrong, but it seems like the Mistrys washed their hands off SIV.
Any new cute onle-liners, Mr Dayal?
So, having been an investor (on behalf of clients and individually) at some point in time in these "gold-standard" companies over the past 30 years - and having authored that very cute sound-byte "there are only 4 things of immense value in India", the past few weeks have been jarring.
Many beliefs have been called into question.
HDFC group was caught with their pants down on March 13 and any premium the group may expect for "integrity" needs to be reviewed.
Gold got a beating on April 12, 15 - and still being punished.
Infosys continues to prove that it this baby has great potential - but probably needs to be adopted by someone other than its founders.
The Tata group has not released any bad news (as yet!) but they have been in a gradual state of decline in my "integrity" assessment.
So, companies I am affiliated with continue to be shareholders in - or recommend - buying some of the stocks of the groups mentioned here.
Just as all gold is not gold - the Quantum Gold ETF only buys gold bars rated by the London Bullion Market (LBM), and does not buy gold from Middle East refiners.
Investors should not assume that every HDFC or Tata group company is good - the various group companies may have the same brand name in front of them, but you need to dig a lot deeper to understand what they are about.
So, my new one-liner is: "Gold is the only thing of value left in the country - despite the wild swings in price; most corporate groups have shown they respect price more than they respect values."
But, my dear readers, Karl Marx - convinced about the death of capitalism - said it better, "All that holy is profaned".
The greed that people have will destroy capitalism.
The greed of the businessmen, the bureaucrats, and the politicians is destroying India.
How I wish the captains of industry would prove us wrong!

|Pre-pregnancy body mass index, gestational weight gain, and other maternal characteristics in relation to infant birth weight.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17713848 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVES: Infant birth weight is influenced by modifiable maternal pre-pregnancy behaviors and characteristics. We evaluated the relationship among pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), gestational weight gain, and infant birth weight, in a prospective cohort study. METHODS: Women were enrolled at < or =20 weeks gestation, completed in-person interviews and had their medical records reviewed after delivery. Infant birth weight was first analyzed as a continuous variable, and then grouped into Low birth weight (LBW) (<2,500 g), normal birth weight (2,500-3,999 g), and macrosomia (> or =4,000 g) in categorical analysis. Pre-pregnancy BMI and gestational weight gain were categorized based on Institute of Medicine BMI groups and gestational weight gain guidelines. Associations among infant birth weight and pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gain, and other factors were evaluated using multivariate regression. Risk ratios were estimated using generalized linear modeling procedures. RESULTS: Pre-pregnancy BMI was independently and positively associated with infant birth weight (beta = 44.7, P = 0.001) after adjusting for confounders, in a quadratic model. Gestational weight gain was positively associated with infant birth weight (beta = 19.5, P < 0.001). Lower infant birth weight was associated with preterm birth (beta = -965.4, P < 0.001), nulliparity (beta = -48.6, P = 0.015), and female babies (beta = -168.7, P < 0.001). Less than median gestational weight gain was associated with twice the risk of LBW (RR = 2.04, 95% CI 1.34-3.11). Risk of macrosomia increased with increasing pre-pregnancy BMI and gestational weight gain (P for linear trend <0.001). CONCLUSIONS: These findings support the need to balance pre-pregnancy weight and gestational weight gain against the risk of LBW and macrosomia among lean and obese women, respectively.

Vas Vega single: The Living Dead
By Zolton in New Music on Thursday 30 June 2011
This is one for all you aspiring indie bands out there: Jordan Holman and Mark LeRoy of the Toronto indie band Vas Vega sent their four song demo off to the five producers that they most wanted to work with. Remarkably, it all happened for them. Two months later they were in London recording with […]
New single from 31Knots: Candles on Open Water
By Gerry Mak in New Music on Wednesday 29 June 2011
Portland-based trio 31Knots have an undeniable pop streak to them that puts them somewhere in the same realm as fellow indie-prog band Yeasayer, but they're just weird enough to keep my interest. They have a new album out called Trump Harm.
Nico Muhly
By Luke Rathborne in New Music on Tuesday 28 June 2011
Nico Muhly is a young classical composer and arranger based out of New York City. I first came across his work in relation to arrangements he composed for another artist, Sam Amidon's record, All Is Well, and one day found myself riding an elevator with him. I was too shy to say hello.
Luke Rathborne
By Zolton in New Music on Tuesday 28 June 2011
We're digging the conflicting tones in New York songwriter Luke Rathbornes' music: sunnyside up melodies jarring with a melancholic minor key discourse. It's a compelling mix and one which catapulted him to adoration on the back of a scintillating performance at this year's SXSW in Austin. Check out his new single You Let Me In […]
Dreamboat: Patterns
By Olivier Olivier from Bikini in New Music on Tuesday 28 June 2011
Dreamboat is from Victoria. I found out about him through my brother, who saw him playing in a park in Toronto. Once I looked him up, I was amazed by his song called Molly Ringwald [listen below]. He has awesome danceable qualities that are paired with vocals tested by all the complexities of being culturally aware, but living a small suburban town.
Battles: Ice Cream (Featuring Matias Aguayo)
By Jason Howe in New Music on Saturday 25 June 2011
I'm always drawn to originality and a contemporary beyond the new, especially in the fine art of painting, but also, just as importantly, in music. Pushing the boundaries of what is rock, Battles create a sound I think a group of five year olds would make if they had twenty years musical experience.
Big Village records: Sydney underground hip hop
By Jason Howe in New Music on Saturday 25 June 2011
Big Village is a newly formed Sydney underground hip hop label. Containing MCs from Sketch the Rhyme, each member is from their own individual bands and contribute their expertise to the running of the organisation.
Beth/Rest by Bon Iver
By Paul Dempsey in New Music on Saturday 25 June 2011
The final track on the new Bon Iver record made myself and the other three people in the car laugh out loud the first time it came on: the sexophone (yes), the tasty guitar licks, the Whitney Houston piano. But then you hear it a few more times and it's pretty tops isn't it? And […]
Drakkar Sauna: The Family Who Prays
By Patrick Duegaw in New Music on Friday 24 June 2011
The music made by the Kansas-based band Drakkar Sauna (Jeff Stolz and Wallace Cochran) is otherworldly. It is completely original and quirky. Angelic vocal harmonies and soulful instrumentals work slyly with strange, provocative lyrics. Anachronistic and yet fresh. Every song will make you wistful, until it makes you laugh.
Pear Shape
By Greg Clennar in New Music on Friday 24 June 2011
Sydneysiders Pear Shape parade their own brand of joyous pop-rock on the track Righteousness. Set against the backdrop of a local indie music scene saturated with brooding experimentalism and ambience, Pear Shape provides a refreshingly accessible alternative, calling on the influences of their 60s predecessors, The Kinks and The Zombies.
Shiver Like Timber (The Great Escape of Houdini and Me)
By Marie Larkin in New Music on Wednesday 22 June 2011
A friend sent me this video link. It's not terribly recent, but I love the quirky animation style of the video clip. The singer is a lovely mix of CocoRosie and Lisa Mitchell (two of my faves). It's lovely.
Brilliant animated video for Efterklang's Mirador
By Tidelands in New Music on Wednesday 22 June 2011
You know those shows where it's so damn good there is a palpable sense of now and the energy among the crowd and stage just gets swirled around and lifted up and everyone in the room feels lucky to be there and this is why we're all here and enjoy it now because it's fleeting? […]
Metal Mother: Shake
By Zolton in New Music on Tuesday 21 June 2011
The video for the new Metal Mother single Shake is electrifyingly creative. It's taken off her debut album, Bonfire Diaries. Metal Mother is a Guest Writer for Lost At E Minor all this week.
Sufjan Stevens: The Age of Adz
By Metal Mother in New Music on Tuesday 21 June 2011
Listening to Sufjan Stevens' new album, Age of Adz, makes me feel like I'm talking to myself without having to actually commit the wonderful faux pas.
Chelsea Wolfe
By drave n. in New Music on Monday 20 June 2011
Los Angeles, California, home of one the darkest, yet bright, musical minds I've heard. Chelsea Wolfe's voice and rough riffs can turn suns and blue skies into the most enjoyable rainy days.

Ami Kutata draws 1000 watercolors for Holy Grail video
By Zolton in New Music on Saturday 18 June 2011
We love the dedication involved here. The duo, Tidelands, asked illustrator Ami Kutata to create a video for their new single, Holy Grail. Four months later, Kutata had completed the video, based on more than 1,000 pages of her hand-drawn work. Incredible!
Another awesome hand-drawn Chad VanGaalen video
By Zolton in New Music on Friday 17 June 2011
Yippee! Canadian musician and artist Chad VanGaalen has released a new animated video, prior to the release of his fourth album, Diaper Island', and it's another hand-drawn masterpiece, literally dripping with bright colours and touching pathos. [check out Chad VanGaalen's video for J Mascis]
The Strikers
By Gerry Mak in New Music on Thursday 16 June 2011
I haven't scratched my psychobilly-inflected punk itch in a while, so I was rather pleased to stumble across San Diego three-piece The Strikers. They use an upright bass for Pete's sake! So awesome. They're currently on tour with fellow San Diegan rockers, The Chop Tops.
School Knights
By Greg Clennar in New Music on Thursday 16 June 2011
I don't think School Knights were striving for originality when they wrote this song. By naming this track Fuck The Beach, this Colorado act are learly more than aware of the genre they fall into. But despite the song's generic prowess, this really is a lot of fun to listen to. Much like the fuzzy […]

Love, love, loved it!!! We are new to vegetarian cooking, and my husband is quite nervous about it (as he loves meat), and he LOVED this. Excellent flavors, easy to prep in advance, great meal! Highly recommend.flag if inappropriate
Loved it! Made this recipe with some very slight tweaks - increased the amount of tasty relish mostly. My cauliflower required a few extra minutes to roast - could be my oven but I'd say 15-17 minutes should do it. Check out the results: http://www.neurotickitchen.com/2012/09/good-deeds-grow-in-brooklyn-community.htmlflag if inappropriate
Terrific! We are not vegetarians, but had this for a main course and were very satisfied. I would warn that each cauliflower will only yield about 3 (if you are lucky) perfectly round and 'steak like' portions. So, for 4-people, if you want a nice presentation, you need to purchase 2-heads of cauliflower. Whatever leftovers you have, make soup!flag if inappropriate
fabulous!!!!! I have prepared this recipe three times. friends and family ssay it's a keeper.flag if inappropriate
perfectflag if inappropriate
Excellent and original way of serving cauliflower. Delicious especially the olive relish: it was a big hit for a dinner with friends. I did not bother to puree the tomatoes, infact they were perfect served whole with a little salt and pepper.flag if inappropriate
Thought this was a pretty good weeknight meal, and an unusual but yummy use of cauliflower.flag if inappropriate
Who in your test kitchen decided that vegetarians don't warrant a main course that contains protein? Either garnish with toasted pine nuts, or a serving of warm Tuscan beans for a vegan meal. Shaved Parmesan, or a soft goat cheese work well for lacto types. As is, this is an impressive-looking, not-too-heavy first course for a dinner party, but definitely better with a hit of crushed red pepper in the tomato sauce.flag if inappropriate
I really wanted to like this recipe since so many other people recommended it, but it was kind of lackluster. I think it would be better if the salsa was kind of mixed with the tomato sauce or if the salsa was hot in some way. It was weird having something crunchy and cold on top of something roasted. I liked the cauliflowers, but I was underwhelmed by the other components.flag if inappropriate
Delish!! Used a fraction of the oil (Weight Watchers for me) and extra tomato.flag if inappropriate

Date: February 24, 2005
Dear County and District Superintendents, and Charter School Administrators:
The California Department of Education (CDE) received inquiries regarding the appropriateness of using the Narconon Drug Abuse and Prevention Program materials and speakers in public schools. In response to these questions, I asked the California Healthy Kids Resource Center (CHKRC) to evaluate the Narconon program.
The CHKRC found that:
The Safe and Drug Free Schools and Communities Act (SDFSC) requires schools to use funds to support prevention programs for which scientific research provides evidence that the program actually reduces or prevents violence and drug use.
Fortunately, many programs are available to schools that have evidence of efficacy in preventing violence or drug use. Every school should focus on implementing the science-based programs and research-based activities listed in the Local Education Agency (LEA) Plan filed by school districts, county offices of education, and direct-funded charter schools. Those programs and activities have been rigorously evaluated and found to provide accurate information, effective instruction, and reduce drug use or violence.
For more information on these LEA Plans, please visit http://www.cde.ca.gov/nclb/sr/le/.
For a copy of the California Healthy Kids Resource Center's report, please visit http://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/he/at/narcononevaluation.asp.
If you have any further questions, please contact the Safe and Healthy Kids Program Office at 916- 319-0920.

Several pledges to Tri Delta sorority at Miami University required medical attention after they were taken off-campus and forced to drink alcohol, resulting in a two-year suspension for the sorority.

By STEPHEN JOHNSONUnited States Postal Service
The United States Postal Service recently delivered its transformation plan to Congress. The plan offers solutions to the current financial situation the service faces and, in the long-term, calls for a new business model to replace our 30 year-old operating structure.
Switching to a new business model will require legislative changes, essentially rewriting the 1970 Postal Reorganization Act that formed the current agency.
The U.S. Postal Service gets most of its revenue from first class mail - the kind used to pay bills and write letters.
Any decline in first class mail has huge consequences, since two-thirds of our costs are covered by the revenue it brings in. Add to that equation the 1.7 million new addresses created every year, nearly 18,000 in Utah, and you can see the crisis the service faces.
But we have solutions. In the long-term, the postal service will ask the U.S. Congress to adopt a new business model, called a commercial government enterprise.
Changing to a CGE would be a large step toward placing the U.S. Postal Service on more businesslike footing.
Postal employees would be expected to provide traditional and non-traditional products and services and implement market-based pricing. Universal mail delivery would be maintained by giving the agency the flexibility to survive in a new economy.
We will also cut costs.
The U.S. Postal Service cut $2.5 billion dollars in operating expenses since 1999. The postmaster general has asked us to cut $5 billion more nationally on an annualized basis during the next five years.
The old legislation served the country well.
In Utah alone, we deliver more than 27 million pieces of mail every week. The figure represents in excess of 1.4 billion pieces every year to more than 930,000 businesses and homes.
No system does what the U.S. Postal Service does. But what organization can keep the same business model for 30 years and hope to survive? Organizations must be able to change in order to survive.
Thirty years ago, no one could have predicted the rise of the Internet, electronic bill payment and competition from global mail providers.
Mail volume nationally and in Utah has always had steady increases and our old business model counted on volume always climbing. But that has changed.
Nationwide, the U.S. Postal Service lost $1.68 billion in 2001 and could lose close to $2 billion in the present fiscal year.
The transformation plan also allows the U.S. Postal Service to better meet changing customer needs, such as increasing access for consumers.
The Salt Lake district has 300 post offices and other retail outlets. But there are quicker, more cost-effective ways to get basic services like stamps.
People already purchase stamps by phone and over the Internet, but we will also explore other non-traditional outlets.
The U.S. Postal Service plans to offer simplified, pre-paid package shipping so customers can pay by the size of the box, not the weight.
And the organization recently introduced a product called Confirm, part of the new generation of "intelligent" services that allows large businesses to track mail in near real-time throughout the postal system.
As the district manager for Utah, I am excited to be a part of the transformation plan. Delivering the mail is a public trust. And the U.S. Postal Service is committed to guaranteeing mail delivery well into the future.
The transformation plan submitted to Congress by the postal service is the first step in the process of guaranteeing mail delivery well into the future and sparks the public policy dialogue with the American people.

59th General Assembly November 1987 Chicago, Illinois
BACKGROUND For the last two years, the Union of American Hebrew Congregations has participated in a coalition of five national and international Reform organizations which worked to secure increased funding for Reform programs in Israel from the Jewish Agency, the primary recipient of UJA and Keren Kayemet funds. This effort was undertaken to allow those in Israel whose spiritual search has taken them into a progressive religious path to have full and equal access to the resources of world Jewry.
Initiated by ARZA, the Reform coalition consisting of the UAHC, ARZA, the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, the Central Conference of American Rabbis, and the World Union for Progressive Judaism was successful in obtaining a $1.6 million grant from the Jewish Agency in February of this year. Reform leaders view this grant as a significant first step in the creation of new funding patterns by the Agency. They anticipate that as Reform programs are successfully implemented, they will receive ongoing and increased support, and that additional programs sponsored by our movement will also become eligible for Agency allocations.
In this light, we commend the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion on the dramatic expansion of its Jerusalem campus; ARZA for directing the Jewish Agency grant project and sponsoring the newly-created Israel Religious Action Center; the World Union for Progressive Judaism for erecting its youth hostel in Jerusalem and for its support of the Israel Movement of Progressive Judaism, the Central Conference of American Rabbis for returning to Israel this year, as it does every seven years, to lend strength to the Jewish State and to the Israeli Reform rabbis who work there; and the Israel Progressive Movement for developing new youth and outreach programs to meet the religious needs of the Israeli population. We view these efforts to promote the growth of an indigenous Progressive Movement in Israel as a critical factor in guaranteeing a religiously pluralistic and democratically-oriented future for the Jewish state.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Union of American Hebrew Congregations:
Applaud the decision of our national institutions to maintain their coalition for the purpose of obtaining increased allocations from the Jewish Agency for Reform programs and institutions in Israel.

Indian Massacre in Minnesota
A History of the Great Massacre by the Sioux
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
Indian Massacre in Minnesota was written over 100 years ago by a man whose job was to process claims for property damaged by Sioux raiders after they went on the warpath, killing pioneer families and taking many of those who survived into captivity. He documented the terrifying tales told by settlers of the horrors they suffered.
However, to properly present this tragic time, the book begins by giving a brief account of the Sioux Indians; the harsh treatment by our government (who ignored a treaty that promised $2 million for their land), their living conditions on the reservations and their complaints. The resulting account of the massacres and conspiracy by the great chief Little Crow is also described, along with the personal accounts of the survivors.
