The Sacred Art of Parenting
It's only been minutes since I read the post of a long-time friend giving birth to her newborn—a story written by her husband of his 43-year-old wife's home birth. It's another painful reminder of how some women never get the privilege of this experience, including myself. On the contrary, having been involved as a foster...

LULAC's Back to School rally mixes fun with serious messages about education
Getting kids fired up about returning to school may seem like a tough sell, but the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) were pushing the start of school year as if it were Christmas.
LULAC held its 20th Back to School rally Saturday at the Cesar Chavez South Park Recreation Center on Cherry Street, treating about 100 kids to school supplies, a chance to win one of six bicycles, a hot dog lunch and words of encouragement about doing well in class.
"What we're trying to do is encourage kids about how important it is to stay in school and do well in school in order to help them financially later in life," said Jack Guzman, president of LULAC. "We try to encourage them to stay in school and succeed."
Jorge Rangel, at-risk specialist in the Abilene Independent School District, was on hand to give children, who were elementary and middle school age, the same message.
"I think it's harder now than it used to be," said Rangel about keeping children on the right track in school. "You have so many families where both parents have to work and you have single-parent families and grandparents and cousins raising families."
Rangel said he wanted to stress to parents the importance of taking an active role in their children's education.
"I know when you both have jobs and you're working at night, it's almost impossible to find the time, but you need to try," he said. "I remember when I worked at H-E-B, I worked from four (p.m.) to midnight. How are you going to find time for your kids with that schedule? Fortunately, my ex-wife was able to stay home with our kids."
Rangel said he also was going to emphasize the importance of attending school.
"If you have to miss school because you're sick that's OK," he said. "But you need to be at school on the other days."
Rangel said the children he was addressing Saturday were the right age for the encouragement.
"We have to reach them early," he said. "By the time they get to high school, they're set in their ways."
Ideally, Rangel would like to reach the children when they're in sixth grade so that he can work with them throughout the rest of their public school career, especially when they become 16 and are able to drop out.
"Sometimes they get a job and they start making a little money," he said. "I have some kids who start laying bricks and they're making pretty good money and they want to drop out. I ask them, 'Why not stay in school and run the crew someday? That's when you'll start making money.'"
Rangel said the important thing for a school-age child was to allow an adult take an interest in them and become a mentor.
"These kids need to settle down and build a relationship with someone who takes an interest in them," he said.

awesome! I love that new one, hope it still the same feeling im getting when i play the game..
like conquest, it was awesome but then the singleplayer gets bored
There is a new lord of the rings game coming up from Snowblind studios, the people behinds: Aragorn's quest, Baldur's gate: Darg Alliance and Champions of Norrath.
Posted by LOTRuler on Mar 22nd, 2010
The new upcoming game is an action/RPG, where people will have the opportunity to see more about middle-earth and ofcourse the will be some famous places in there like: Erebor (the lonely mountain), Iron Hills etc. the game will be mostly focused on the region Forodwaith ofcourse in the north.
It will be released in 2011 at this time there will be no sure release time.
All the characters are new, but in your journey in the game you will meet them.
This game will be playable in Co-op up to 3.
The game will also be released for PS3, Xbox 360 and ofcourse the PC.
The Trailer is also released (News.teamxbox.com) whit some more information.
There will be an Preview in the official playstion magazine, it will be in shelves in begining april.
awesome! I love that new one, hope it still the same feeling im getting when i play the game..
like conquest, it was awesome but then the singleplayer gets bored
great bout damn time
Probably rated M, of course. I don't think Tolkien wanted THAT much blood in a game... still, looks pretty cool.
hope there will be a war in the south. Or a war for arda(the 1st war to the war of wraith).
Saw the trailer, sure it looks awesome, but I got a rather bad experience about LOTR games (especially Conquest.
Anyhow, just wait and see...
"hope it turns out well, if not, ok then"
By the way, can't someone force that bastards to make an LOTR RPG or something that takes place in the 1st age? Would love to kick Morgoth around (and Feanor's sons of course)
:O feanor's sons were the bomb! id rather kick thingol around doriath :P
Thingol would turf you out of the forest rather quickly. :P
hope you get to explore all of middle earth lol not just in the north
The North would be quite enough to keep programmers busy for years, if they had a sense of scale.
Of course, distances would have to be scaled down quite a bit, since otherwise it would literally take DAYS to move your character across the map... unless there was a fast travel feature...
lord of the rings online is really big its up in the north for right now.. preety big without there exspantion packs 2 but with them its even more big... so hopefully these guys take it to a whole new level and make it huge
hello my name is jenny amanda my email address is email@example.com
hello name is jenny amanda my email address is firstname.lastname@example.com
When you say the people behind Baldur's Gate, do you mean BioWare?
So, a Lord of the Rings RPG..... developed by BioWare.
Someone pinch me.
I want to ask something: The gameplay would be the same as lotr conqouest or you ll choose from the beginning a hero and finish the game with him?

< Previous Issue | Next Issue >
Houses Divided: Lincoln, Douglas, and the Political Landscape of 1858
The Lincoln-Douglas debates are often portrayed as a tale of delayed gratification: Abraham Lincoln lost his bid for the U.S. Senate in 1858, only to find the notoriety garnered from the debates hurling him toward election as the sixteenth president in 1860. In this telling, the ferocity and dynamics of the 1858 state election become subordinate to the national contest of 1860, while the connections between local and national politics in the antebellum period are lost altogether. Based on examinations of state vote ledgers, untapped newspaper accounts, and archival collections, Read online >re-creates those connections at multiple levels, offering new conclusions concerning who organized, who participated and who "won" in 1858. (pp. 391–417)
For suggestions on how to use this article in the U.S. history classroom, see our Teaching the JAH Web project at http://www.journalofamericanhistory.org/teaching/.
Market Visions: Expenditure Surveys, Market Research, and Economic Planning in the New Deal
During the New Deal, the federal government commissioned a massive and innovative survey of family income and expenditures. Although left-leaning economists designed the 1935–1936 Study of Consumer Purchases to raise working-class "purchasing power" and guide federal economic planning, the project often proved more useful to market—research analysts. Read online >shows how a shared desire for greater knowledge of consumer behavior and demand brought together left-wing advocates of centralized economics, advertising men, market researchers, and advertising agencies. The story of knowledge created by the federal government and its ramifications is an integral part of the history of the New Deal itself. (pp. 418–34)
The Strange Career of Annie Lee Moss: Rethinking Race, Gender, and McCarthyism
In 1954, Joseph McCarthy accused a Pentagon employee, Annie Lee Moss, of being a card-carrying member of the Communist party. Since then, Moss has become a cipher, caught between liberal commentators who portray her as a "little woman" of no significance, and conservative ideologues who see her very obscurity as a cover for Communist cunning. Drawing on Federal Bureau of Investigation files, government hearing transcripts, news reports, and letters from ordinary Americans, Andrea Friedman delves beneath the surface to show that, while Moss was never the "humble Negress" of myth, the intersections between Cold War politics, racial liberalism, and gendered notions of citizenship sharply constrained her ability to prove herself both a loyal citizen and an active defender of her own interests. (pp. 435–58) Read online >
You Can't Go Home Again: Homesickness and Nostalgia in U.S. History
How have Americans coped with the long-standing patterns of mobility and restlessness that have shaped social life in the United States? Read online >uses a four-century-long history of homesickness and nostalgia to answer that question. Exploring the emotions of colonists, immigrants, internal migrants, slaves, and soldiers, as well as the changing nostrums of doctors and psychologists, this essay probes the subjective experience of restlessness and dislocation and its effects on social and cultural life. Once seen as a potentially fatal condition, homesickness is now regarded as a childhood weakness, easily overcome through early training. To leave one's home and one's past behind has become an imperative of modern life. This essay traces how, over several generations, Americans have learned to do so. (pp. 459–87)

Putting Religion on the Map
In a 1961 article, the geographer Wilbur Zelinsky divided the United States into seven distinct "religious regions" and five "subregions." Nearly half a century later, a set of researchers, led by Mark Silk and Andrew Walsh, have adapted this rubric for the Religion by Region series. Reviewing the eight-volume series, Read online >highlights both the procedural differences between Zelinsky's project and the newer one and the assumptions underlying the analytical creation of regions in a way valuable to scholars. Although intended for a general audience, the series will benefit all those with an eye to the geographical and religious diversity of the nation. (pp. 515–19)

Medicare is having it's 49th Birthday!
And there is no better way to recognize the success of the Medicare program than to improve it and expand it to all residents of the United States. Health care is a human right, and it is time we live up to that standard.
Please join us on Medicare's anniversary -- Wednesday, July 30th, 11:30 a.m. -- at the Denver office of Congresswoman Diana DeGette, CD1, to ask her not only to support good policy, but also to stand up for the millions of uninsured and under-insured that desperately need our nation to finally live up to our ideals.
Activists with Health Care for All Colorado will be meeting earlier that morning at 10:30 am at the Qdoba Grill at 550 Grant to record video stories about the continuing health care shortfalls after the passage of the Affordable Care Act. If you have a story or would like to help record others stories please join us. We will add more details to this page as those details become available.
After we meet up and gather stories, we will walk together to Rep. DeGette's office at 6th and Grant to ask Rep. DeGette to commit to become a cosponsor of HR 676. The United States National Health Care Act, or the Expanded and Improved Medicare for All Act, which has been introduced every year since 2003 by Rep. John Conyers. Rep. Jared Polis was a co-sponsor of HR676 in a previous Congressional session, but not one of Colorado's current Congressional delegation has stepped up to support making health care a human right for all.
HR676 would save the American people 300 billion dollars per year and extend the great gains made by Medicare in the war on poverty beyond our elders to all people. For our action, you may also wish to make a sign or two to support HR676, Medicare for all.
To share a bit more of the history of Medicare, on July 30th 1965, as part of the War on Poverty, President Lyndon Johnson signed amendments to the Social Security Act creating Medicare. Medicare, by providing national health insurance to those with disabilities and those over 65, brought the level of poverty afflicting our elders from 28.5 percent in 1966 to 9.1 percent in 2012. Medicare has not only been one of the most successful anti-poverty programs ever enacted in the United States, but also a great moral and ethical advancement for our society and our communities. Harry and Bess Truman were the first to enroll on that historic day of Medicare's enactment, but it took only one year for all who were eligible to be enrolled in Medicare. No websites or exchanges needed. Everybody in and nobody out!
We'll look forward to seeing you on July 30th. If you work in the medical profession please wear your white coat or scrubs, etc.
If you are unable to attend the action please call Representative DeGette and your own Representative & Senator to ask them to support HR 676. We'll add phone numbers to an email blast and this page prior to the July 30 action.

The second video shows a bird in flight with flaps that are radically different from the duck-like flaps that were expected, but a long overlooked clue in a photo from 1939 suggests that there had been a misconception about the flap style. The combination of the flap style and the size rule out all species native to Louisiana other than the two large woodpeckers, but several characteristics rule out Pileated Woodpecker. This footage was obtained when an Ivory-billed Woodpecker flew along the bayou below a tall tree that was used as an observation platform, providing a view from an advantageous perspective of the white stripes on the back and the white patches on the wings. A little over a minute before the bird flew into view, the video captured a putative double knock that matches a putative double knock that was recorded by Hill et al. in Florida.
Collins began searching for Ivory-billed Woodpeckers in November 2005, shortly after Hurricane Katrina passed through the Pearl River. His first sighting was on February 2, 2006, and then two weeks later he discovered a "hot zone" a short distance up the same bayou, where he had five sightings (two of exceptional quality) and also heard the characteristic "kent" calls of this species on two occasions (once coming simultaneously from two directions) during a five-day period. The first video was obtained in the "hot zone" on February 20, 2006.
During the summer of 2007, Collins started climbing tall cypress trees to watch for Ivory-billed Woodpeckers flying over the treetops in the distance. The idea was to increase the encounter rate by opening up a larger field of view. Professor Steve Sillett, of Humboldt State University, and his colleagues, Jim Spickler and Michael Taylor, donated their expertise and time as well as a full set of gear for climb

"Making the dredging of our waterways more affordable and feasible is essential to help local communities prepare for tourism season," Price said. "Thanks to this legislation, communities can begin dredging projects immediately without high permit fees, financial strain or long waiting periods."
House Bills 4398 and 4400 will reduce dredging permit fees to $50 for projects that propose to remove 10,000 cubic feet or more, and whose dredge material has been determined to be composed of at least 90 percent sand. Previous permit fees ranged between $1,500 and $2,000.
For emergency situations where dredging is necessary to protect property, public health, safety and welfare of Michigan residents, House Bill 4399 exempts 20-day notification and public hearing requirements, Price said.
Snyder also on Wednesday signed Senate Bills 233 and 252, which provide funding for emergency dredging projects and create an emergency loan program for private marinas to borrow funds for dredging their facilities. They will provide $21 million for 58 emergency harbor dredging projects.
The emergency funds were requested by the governor in his February budget recommendation. Of the $21 million, $11.5 million comes from the general fund and $9.5 million comes from the Michigan State Waterways Fund.
"As the Great Lakes State, we need to ensure the availability of our beautiful waterways to boaters to support tourism, local communities, the state economy and safe boating," Snyder said. "I thank the Legislature for approving these funds in time for the boating season."

« Steve Nissen vs. GlaxoSmithKline |
| Unintelligent Design »
Posted by Derek
Back in March, Intermune's stock saw a sudden jump on news that an FDA advisory committee treated their drug pirfenidone more positively than expected. But the agency is in no way committed to following these recommendations, and yesterday they turned down the drug, sending Intermune stock right back down into the basement again.
Pirfenidone was, even after the advisory committee, an iffy proposition. It made it through one Phase III trial, but missed its endpoints on another. And even though there's no current treatment for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, there's no use in telling people that there is one (and asking their insurance companies to pay for it) if there really isn't. The company isn't saying much, but all indications are the the FDA is concerned about efficacy: they aren't convinced that the drug really works, and will want fresh clinical trial data before reconsidering approval.
Whether Intermune can raise the cash to do that is in doubt. If they can't convince the FDA that they have something worthwhile, they'll likely have trouble persuading investors.

How about GSK? Alternatively, perhaps they can get some money from Generex's investor base - on the other hand, this has been through significant trials, so maybe there's too much data.

I wonder if any of the advisory committee set up a short sale after they made their initial decision?
3. ER on May 6, 2010 4:23 AM writes...
The worry is what this will do to their current discovery programs/employees - i.e. when mamagement decide to apply the entire company's resources towards a 3rd phase 3 trial, and stop everything (layoff everyone) else.

H&R Block Tax Professionals relentlessly focus on making sure you profit from every deduction and credit available.
H&R Block Tax Professionals relentlessly focus on making sure you profit from every deduction and credit available.
There's a difference between withdrawing funds from a traditional IRA and withdrawing funds from a Roth IRA. We'll tell you how each might affect your taxes.
Traditional IRAs
The IRS will charge you a 10% early withdrawal penalty if both of these apply:
This is true unless you qualify for an exception
Exceptions include:
To receive the penalty exemption, you must meet all of these conditions:
You must follow the distribution methods approved by the IRS to figure the required payments. To avoid the penalty, these withdrawals must last:
The lifetime limit is $10,000. However, you and your spouse can each withdraw $10,000 from your IRAs. Together, you can have a total of $20,000.
You must use the money within 120 days from the date you withdrew it to qualify for the exception. In this case, a first-time homebuyer is someone who hasn't owned an interest in a main home for at least two years.
Qualified expenses for all students include:
The expenses must be required for attendance at one of these:
The amount you can withdraw is unlimited. However, the distribution is still subject to income tax. It could be taxed at a rate as high as 39.6% depending on your tax bracket.
Roth IRAs
Unlike traditional IRA withdrawals, qualified Roth IRA payments and distributions are tax-free. However, you must meet certain requirements.
First, you must make the withdrawal five years after the year you made your first contribution. The account doesn't have to be open five full years.
Also, for the payments to be a qualified distribution, they must be one of these:
When you withdraw your money from a Roth IRA, your contributions and earnings come out in this order:
You've already paid tax on your Roth IRA contributions. So, you can withdraw your regular contributions at any time and at any age with no penalty or tax. After you withdraw an amount equal to all of your regular contributions, the earnings will be taxable. This is only true if the distribution isn't a qualified distribution. If the distribution is qualified, then your distribution won't be taxed.
All of your Roth IRAs are treated as one for withdrawal purposes. It doesn't matter how many Roth IRA accounts you have.
Converted amounts and early withdrawal penalty
You can convert a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. To take a tax-free distribution the money must stay in the Roth IRA for five years after the year you make the conversion.
If you withdraw contributions before the five-year period, you might have to pay a 10% penalty. This is an early withdrawal penalty on the entire distribution. You usually pay the 10% penalty on the amount you converted. A separate five-year period applies to each conversion.
If you're at least age 59 1/2 when you make the withdrawal, you won't pay the 10% penalty. This applies no matter how long the money is in the account. You also won't pay a penalty if you:
Distribution ordering rules for Roth IRAs
If the money you withdraw from a Roth IRA isn't a qualified distribution, part of it might be taxable. Your money comes out of a Roth IRA in this order:
Roth IRA earnings
Your earnings are tax-free if both of these are true:
The earnings you withdraw are tax-free at any age if both of these apply:
If you die before meeting the five-year test, the IRS will tax your beneficiaries on distributed earnings until this test is met.
No matter your age, your earnings are taxable if you don't meet the five-year test. This is true even if your earnings are penalty-free.
Each traditional IRA you convert to a Roth IRA has its own five-year holding period.
The IRS requires your IRA custodian or trustee to send you Form 5498. This shows your:
You should receive the form by the end of May. Keep these records even though you don't report your Roth contributions on your return.
When you withdraw money from your Roth IRA, report it on Form 8606. This form keeps track of your basis in regular Roth contributions and conversions. It lets you see if you've withdrawn earnings. If you've held your Roth IRA for at least five years and you're older than age 59 1/2, all withdrawals are tax-free.
Traditional IRA distributions
If you wait until you're older than age 59 1/2, you won't pay the 10% penalty. If you deducted your traditional IRA contributions, the money you withdraw is taxable. However, if you made nondeductible contributions, part of your withdrawal will be tax-free.
Required minimum distributions
You must begin withdrawing money from your traditional IRA by April 1 the year after you reach age 70 1/2. If you don't withdraw the minimum amount, the IRS will assess a penalty equal to 50% of the amount you should have withdrawn.
If your 70th birthday is between January and June, you'll turn age 70 1/2 before the end of that year. At that time, you must start taking the required minimum distribution from your IRA by April 1 of the next year. However, you might want to take your first distribution in the year you turned age 70 1/2. By doing this, you avoid having to take two distributions in the next calendar year.
If your 70th birthday is after June 30, both of these apply:
Minimum withdrawals are based on life expectancy. Find out what your minimum required distribution is. Then, you can take the full amount from just one account or from several accounts.
If you fail to withdraw the minimum required amount, you'll have a 50% penalty. If you have reasonable cause for not withdrawing the minimum amount, the IRS might waive the penalty.
Getting your money early
You can receive distributions from your traditional IRA before age 59 1/2 without paying the 10% penalty. To do so, these conditions must apply:
If by age 59 1/2 you haven't been receiving payment for at least five years, you might have to pay the 10% penalty.
Also, if you change your method of distribution after reaching age 59 1/2, you might still have to pay a penalty. This might apply even if you haven't take distributions for five years. In that case, the tax applies only to payments distributed before you reach age 59 1/2.
This distribution method saves you the 10% penalty. However, you'll still have to pay income tax on any amount not considered a return of your nondeductible contributions.
Roth IRA distributions
If you've held your Roth IRA for at least five years and you're older than age 59 1/2, money you withdraw will be tax-free. If you open a Roth IRA account after you turn 59 1/2, you still have to wait at least five years before you can take tax-free distributions of your earnings. However, you can take tax-free withdrawals of your contributions at any time.
There's no required minimum distribution for a Roth IRA prior to the account owner's death. So, you're not required to withdraw any money during your lifetime. This is an advantage over a traditional IRA.
Death and the traditional IRA
If a person dies while there's still money in their traditional IRA account, the beneficiaries:
If the deceased had a basis in the IRA, the beneficiaries inherit this basis. They must use Form 8606 to figure the taxable portion of the distributions.
If you inherit an IRA from your spouse, you can treat the IRA as your own. Then, you can put off taking the required minimum distribution until you reach age 70 1/2. If you're not a spouse, you must figure your required minimum distributions from the account. To do this, you must use the IRS life expectancy table for beneficiaries.
Death and the Roth IRA
Roth IRAs have different guidelines. If you inherit a Roth IRA, you can withdraw the money tax-free. However, the IRA must first meet the five-year period.
If you inherit the Roth from your spouse, you can treat it as your own. You won't need to make required withdrawals during your lifetime.
However, if you're not the deceased's spouse, you must either:

Re: whats your rank of TOS and TNG films?
My faves have always been:
1. The Wrath of Khan-outstanding script, direction and acting. Not to mention Montalban's muscular chest! Wow!
2. The Search for Spock- for "Stealing the Enterprise" scene, Spock/Kirk "You came back for me" speech and performance by Mark Leonard as Sarek.
3. The Voyage Home - for "Punk on the Bus" scene, outstanding performance by De Kelley for "Chekov rescue scene" and enviromental message. Good script and direction.
4. The Motion Picture - Fond memories because it was the first Star Trek since TV series....hey, we were hungry in those days!
5. The Final Frontier- Enjoyable opening sequence in Yellowstone, good performance by Lawrence Luckinbill.
6. Insurrection - Like a good TNG TV episode.
7. The Undiscovered Country - Poor direction and pacing. Performances inconsistant. Pepto-Bismal Blood of Klingon unbelievable. Mind rape of Valaris disturbing.
8. Generations - Poor direction and plotting. Script nonsensical. Cast not taking their performances seriously. Killing of Kirk wrong. Outstanding performance by Malcolm McDowell.
9 and 10. First Contact & Nemesis - So bad I couldn't sit through them to the end. Poor direction and inconsistant plotting. Cast not taking roles seriously.
11. Star Trek 2009 - Not Star Trek in my opinion. Sorry, my gut won't allow any other answer.

When I Dream, I Feel Like This. ~ Ayşe Ay
I often dream and when I dream, I feel like this:
Then suddenly, I fall onto the earth.
Real people, real life, love, competition, hate, revenge, joy, everything is there.
I remember that I am a human.
Then, something terrible starts to work: my incredibly strong memory.
I start to recall everything, my disappointments, my fears….
I try to protect that little child sitting on the moon.
I decide to be a realist, calculate every single possibility of my dreams , and become a pessimist.
At that point, I start to do yoga to find my real self who is full of love, joy and happiness…
Ayşe Ay is a hopeless dreamer, a dedicated dynamic yoga student, an English teacher in Turkey and likes writing, especially for children.
