Mission and History
New York Medical College is a health sciences university whose purpose is to educate physicians, scientists, public health specialists, and other healthcare professionals, and to conduct biomedical and population-based research. Through its faculty and affiliated clinical partners, the College provides service to its community in an atmosphere of excellence, scholarship and professionalism. New York Medical College believes that the rich diversity of its student body and faculty is important to its mission of educating outstanding health care professionals for the multicultural world of the 21st century.
About the School
The Graduate School of Basic Medical Sciences educates future researchers and teachers, and prepares senior-level scientists and technicians to work in academia and industry. Of the approximately 200 students enrolled, half pursue their studies full time. Some 16 percent are international students. There are strong doctoral programs in cell biology and anatomy, biochemistry and molecular biology, pharmacology, experimental pathology, physiology, and microbiology and immunology. In addition, an M.D./Ph.D. degree program is available for those students capable of completing the rigorous program requirements.
Some Highlights in the History of New York Medical College and the Graduate School of Basic Medical Sciences
New York Medical College was founded in 1860 by a group of visionary civic leaders who believed that medicine should be practiced with more sensitivity to the needs of patients. William Cullen Bryant, the noted poet and editor, was the driving force behind this group and he served as the first president of the College, known then as the New York Homeopathic Medical College, when it opened its doors in 1860 in Manhattan.
A separate but related institution known as the New York Medical College for Women was founded in 1863 and graduated the first female physician in the country, Dr. Emily Stowe, in 1867, as well as Dr. Susan McKinney, the first African-American female physician in New York State, in 1870. When the Women's College closed in 1918, its students transferred to New York Medical College. The College was the first medical school in the nation to establish a minority scholarship program, in 1928.
The College occupied several different sites within New York City over the years, and finally re-located to Valhalla in Westchester County, NY in the 1970's. The College became affiliated with the Archdiocese of New York in 1978, which helped provide financial stability during a troublesome time and also recognized a shared commitment to the public good by the two institutions in the area of health care and the health sciences. The College remains affiliated with several hospitals in the Archdiocese's health care network as well as with other public and private hospitals.
The College's involvement in graduate education dates back to 1910, when its records show the existence of advanced courses and research programs. Graduate courses in surgery and medicine were offered in the 1920's. In 1938, the College's charter was amended to include the authority to offer graduate degrees such as the Master of Science in medicine, a doctorate in medical science, and a doctorate in public health. In 1963, the Graduate School of Medical Sciences was founded, establishing for the first time a center for graduate education separate from the medical curriculum. The school was renamed the Graduate School of Basic Medical Sciences in 1969.

Miami, FL (SportsNetwork.com) - Aaron Rodgers faced Joe Philbin for the first time and engineered a winning two-minute drill.
His old coach is working with a different quarterback these days -- and the new guy looked a lot like the old guy when it mattered most.
Rodgers threw a 4-yard touchdown pass with three seconds remaining on Sunday to lift the Green Bay Packers to a dramatic 27-24 win over the Miami Dolphins.
Andrew Quarless' catch in the front-right corner of the end zone capped a 60- yard drive in 2:01 that included a fake spike by Rodgers to set up a 12-yard completion on the previous play.
"A-Rod, I think that last drive, it just shows you what kind of leader he is," said Quarless of Rodgers. "He's just decisive and he makes plays. I'm thankful he came to me with it. It just shows how we're building."
Rodgers beat Philbin, the old Green Bay offensive coordinator who helped turn the Packers quarterback into an MVP but is now in his third year as coach of the Dolphins.
The winning throw came after Ryan Tannehill led the Dolphins on three straight second-half touchdown drives to take the lead before Miami was forced to punt on its fourth possession.
Rodgers passed for 264 yards and three touchdowns in his 100th regular-season game, the other two going to Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb to help the Packers (4-2) build a 17-10 lead after three quarters. Nelson gained 107 yards on nine catches, including an 18-yard gain on fourth down on the winning drive.
"An excellent road victory," Packers head coach Mike McCarthy remarked. "We knew this was going to be a tough game coming down here in the heat. The thing that impressed me the most in our victory is just the grit of our football team; the way each phase picked up for one another."
After Mike Wallace caught a 5-yard touchdown pass with 9:13 remaining for the Dolphins (2-3), the Packers scored 10 unanswered points for the win.
"This one is tough," said Tannehill. "Knowing that we didn't play well in the first half (and how we) fought ourselves back in (and) made a bunch of plays in the second half but didn't get it done right there at the end with (our) offense or defense, makes it hurt that much more."
Tannehill had two first-half interceptions but passed for 244 yards and two scores. Rookie wide receiver Jarvis Landry caught one of them for his first career touchdown. Lamar Miller ran for a score and Knowshon Moreno carried six times for 10 yards after missing the previous two games with an elbow injury.
Tannehill was backing up under pressure when he flung a 9-yard touchdown pass to Landry, who leapt to make the catch over Tramon Williams near the back of the end zone to tie the score three minutes into the second half.
Rodgers avoided a rush on his second touchdown pass, scrambling toward the right sideline to spot Cobb, who came forward in the end zone in front of three defenders to catch the 5-yard throw.
Not to be outdone, Tannehill wiggled out of a would-be sack for a 25-yard pass to Wallace on a swift 80-yard drive that ended with Miller's 5-yard touchdown run to make it 17-17 tie 78 seconds into the fourth quarter.
Tannehill was just as good on Miami's third drive of the half with another 25- yard pass to Wallace, a short throw Miller turned into a 20-yard gain and a 21-yard toss to Landry. His toss to Wallace made it 24-17 with 9:13 left.
The Packers settled for a 30-yard field goal from Mason Crosby after that, but Rodgers got the ball back at his own 40 with 2:04 to play after Miami punted.
Rodgers was sharp on the game's first drive, completing all five of his passes for 69 yards with a 9-yard strike to Nelson in the end zone.
A 54-yard kickoff return by Landry set up Caleb Sturgis' 48-yard field goal for Miami but Jonathan Freeny's blocked punt failed to produce points for the Dolphins when the Packers stopped them three times at the 1-yard line.
Only one of Tannehill's two first-half interceptions led to points when Crosby kicked a 43-yard field goal after Casey Hayward leapt in front of a, giving the Packers a 10-3 lead at the break.
Sam Shields, who also intercepted Tannehill, went down to the grass prior to a snap late in the third quarter with a knee injury. Williams, the other Packers cornerback, was helped off the field not long after that with an ankle injury.

I would highly recommend looking for a different school. "Miss. Sue's" response to bullying was kids will just have to deal with it as its apart of life. She goes above and beyond her position and attempts to diagnose children as though she were a doctor when in reality she just doesn't like your kid. Its been many many many years and i'm still really really upset with what went on here. I cant even begin to tell everything but I hope to god "Miss. Sue" is no longer the teacher here. I'm posting this now as there has never been any reviews of this school and I think parents have a right to know at least a small portion of my story. ** The community centre has fabulous other programs and I was involved in many of them at all ages, I am only commenting on the preschool and the specific teacher. **

A DC-10 is set to arrive at Denver International Airport on Wednesday from Bolivia with 25 lions rescued from small traveling circuses across the South American country.
Operation Lion Ark, as the $200,000 airlift is called, will have the big cats join about 270 other formerly captive wild animals — including tigers, bears, leopards, wolves, servals and other lions — at the Wild Animal Sanctuary, about 7 miles from Interstate 76, near Keenesburg, in Weld County
Nearly all the animals have been rescued from circuses, traveling shows and private residences.
For three months, Animal Defenders International, or ADI, has worked with Bolivian authorities to seize the 25 lions from circuses that typically had housed the animals in crates and cages, said Jan Creamer, president of the animal-rights group, which has offices in London, Los Angeles and Bogotá.
Creamer spoke by telephone on Friday from Santa Cruz, Bolivia, where ADI officials, and local government representatives have been caring for the lions since the circus rescues began in November.
Creamer said Bolivia's environmentally conscious government is a leader in the worldwide movement to promote national bans on wildlife in circuses and roadside shows.
"This is the first country that has been emptied of its performing animals," she said, referring to Bolivia's recent law prohibiting the commercial showcasing of wild animals.
"In a traveling circus, you keep large animals on the back of a truck, and they will always suffer," Creamer said.
Eight lions were found confined to one truck during one of the rescues, she said.
ADI researched the capabilities of various wild-animal sanctuaries to handle the large contingent of Bolivian lions and settled on Keenesburg.
The lions cannot be placed in the wild because the animals have lived their entire lives in captivity.
The Weld County sanctuary has about 320 acres, and it is dedicating 80 acres of it to the Bolivian lions.
On Friday, sanctuary operations manager Casey Craig and other employees were completing construction on the new lion house.
It is a fabric-covered structure with eight fenced-in and sodded enclosures where the Bolivian lions first will live indoors, acclimating themselves to Colorado's weather, while work is finished on four separate 20-acre, open-air habitats that will surround the building.
"The Wild Animal Sanctuary in Colorado is a dream come true," Creamer said. "We know the lions are going to have the life they deserve on these 80 acres. It is more than we could ever have wished for anywhere else."
The cost to care for a lion or tiger at the sanctuary is about $8,000 a year, bringing the total annual bill to care for the Bolivian lions to about $200,000, said Shawna Finkenbinder, the facility's development director.
Creamer said her organization, with help from Bob Barker, former host of "The Price is Right" game show and a longtime animal-rights activist, has contributed about $150,000 to help underwrite construction of the new lion house at the sanctuary.
"ADI always makes a promise that we will care for them for the rest of their lives," Creamer said of the lions' annual feeding and veterinary costs.
The carnivores at the Keenesburg facility, including its current complement of 15 lions and 70 tigers, eat about four tons of raw meat each week.
Five years ago, sanctuary officials said they might have to close the nonprofit facility after a drop in donations led to a financial crisis.
Since then, the sanctuary's financial condition has stabilized, Finkenbinder said, in part because of an animal adoption and pledge program that helps generate monthly income to supplement larger gifts from major donors.
The sanctuary, which relies on volunteers, is open to the public every day, except major holidays, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
It charges $10 for adults and $5 for children 3 to 12 for admission to rooftop viewing areas and raised wooden walkways that take visitors over some of the animal paddocks.
Sanctuary officials urge visitors to become part of a movement to eliminate the use of wild animals as pets or attractions in circuses or roadside shows.
It discourages visitors who merely are coming for "entertainment."
The sign at the facility's entrance says: "If you have come to learn about saving captive wildlife and want to support the important work that our sanctuary does, then please feel free to come in."
The facility's goal is to move as many of the sanctuary's animals as possible out of smaller, more confined paddocks and into large-area habitats, Finkenbinder said.
"We provide lifelong homes for the animals, and we educate the public about the captive wildlife crisis," she said. "Our long-term goal is to put ourselves out of business."

Hi Kirk,
Having a look around your website I see you discuss the granularity of modules and I guess this is discussed in the book.
I'm keen on domain driven design, where domain objects reside in the same packages as the factories and repositories that create and store them.
This means the application data access layer is not as a whole in a single explicit package.
Do you think that this is wrong and that domain entities should be separated from domain repositories (and DAOs), even to the extent of shifting them into separate modules?

Granularity is discussed at several points throughout the book. There is a section dedicated to Granularity in Chapter 5.
If your domain objects contain behavior (ex. business rules) and your DAOs contain data access code, then they should be separated. There are at least a couple of different reasons. First, it ensures physical separation in addition to logical separation. Second, you give yourself the opportunity to reuse each.
There are several different ways I've seen DAOs implemented. In some cases, the DAOs create the domain objects. I consider that bad. In other cases, the DAOs get the data and returns a simple DataBean (aka. Transfer Object) to the domain object. I consider this better. In the most flexible case, a DAOFactory assembles all of this stuff together for us (the DAO, DataBean, and Domain Object). That gives us much more flexibility in how we ultimately get the domain object. For instance, it means a domain object could be built several different ways using different SQL statements.
Since we don't typically create factory classes anymore, and instead use Spring, all of this would be assembled using a configuration file and you'll wire it all together at runtime. The remaining issue is that Spring config files are global. If you change any of the classes, you have to find the right config file and change that too. This is where OSGi and Spring DM can be pretty neat. You can encapsulate the factory within the module itself. Take a look at the end of Chapter 3 (excerpt link below) to see this in action. I think you'll find it quite interesting.

Hi Kirk,
Thanks, that excerpt is quite interesting – may have to buy the book
But I just have a few follow up points that perhaps you can help me with.
I'm using JPA and so my entities contain JPA annotations. Then my DAO implementations simply use the entity manager. So do you think this separation is still valid?
If so and I create different module JARs, can we put them in packages of the same name? I believe this is not allowed in OSGi because the packages will shadow each other, is this right?
In keeping with the domain driven approach, I have entity repositories that often use DAO interfaces, but are a domain concept – not a software one. My business logic involves the use of repositories to retrieve entities, update and save them. Would these become the service layer in a new module that encapsulated the data access logic?
I agree. Here's the link:

Thursday Midday Links: Double rainbows
Short Sharp Science: Double rainbow all across the sky – seen from space – "This satellite image shows both "glories" – the rainbow-like lines stretching diagonally through the centre of the image – and von Karman vortex clouds. We can see the Pacific island of Guadalupe in the top right corner in this image from NASA's Aqua satellite taken on June 20 this year." New Scientist
News Corp.'s Board Approves Split in Principle – WSJ.com – "One company will house entertainment businesses like 20th Century Fox, Fox broadcast network and Fox News Channel while another houses the publishing assets, which include The Wall Street Journal and the Times of London along with HarperCollins book publishing and News Corp.'s education business. . . .Publishing generates much lower profit margins than the company's TV and film operations, and faces stiff competition from online news outlets. Industrywide newspaper advertising has fallen about 50% in the past five years, estimates the Newspaper Association of America. While the Journal has added subscribers, and has protected its content behind a paywall, the new standalone publishing company will confront deep challenges." WSJ, Paid Link
News Corporation Announces Split – NYTimes.com – "The restructuring still needs final approval from the company's board, which gave the plan initial approval during a meeting Wednesday night.

Indie publisher prints books with disappearing ink | The Verge – "Ad agency Draftcb has won gold at the Cannes PR Lions for an innovative publishing concept, using disappearing ink to print books that gradually fade away over the course of two months. Dubbed "The Book That Can't Wait," the format — an intriguing one in a world increasingly dominated by Kindles and Nooks — is being pioneered by independent Argentinian publishing house Eterna Cadencia, which is using it to promote new authors. As the promo video (below) points out, "if people don't read their first books, they'll never make it to a second.""
Why?The Verge
Amazon to Acquire Dorchester (Unless You Are Ready To Outbid Them) | Digital Book World – According to a newly released notice, Amazon is the high bidder for the assets of Dorchester. Richard Curtis writes "In practice Amazon, or any firm that outbids Amazon in an auction to be conducted in August, will tender amendments to authors and agents transferring rights to the new entity, in exchange for which back royalties will be paid in full. The acquiring firm will then convert the books to e-books (a number of them have been converted already) and release them in e-book format. The original covers are among the assets to be acquired; our understanding is that Dorchester owned them outright and no rights clearance will have to be undertaken."Digital Book World
Amazon is trying to fulfill customer needs through its own catalog should publishers try to withhold content. It also helps to strengthen Amazon's vertical business silo. The next question has to be whether Amazon will acquire HarperCollins after it is spun off from the Fox entertainment division.

What about those Americans who cherish the sanctity of good Health care for everyone ???
hey viral - let those Americans who cherish the sanctity of good health care for all pay for it themselves!
What's wrong Viral...your food stamps not enuff 4 u...want more?
Finally health insurance for everyone. We are the only nation who does not take care of our
people. Finally parents with ill children do not have to worry themselves sick wondering
how are they going to get their sick babies to a doctor because they cannot afford.
No more big insurance companies ripping us off and no poor paying up the you know what
for health care. Bush ran up trillions and the republicans could have cared less.
Take your Republican party and shove it. You are what is wrong with America.
What will the historic yes vote in the House be?
Sharon - Give me a break. "We are the only nation who does not take care of our
people." Yeah, right. Cuba does a much better job, huh? And why do Canadians continue to run down here for health care because their own government is inept at running it? You are vastly uneducated when it comes to the issues, but then again that's par for the course when it comes to Liberals. Put down the Starbucks cup and go hug a tree.
Sadly the "Historic" vote won't be much higher than that...Sadly the most expensive piece of legislation I've ever heard of will be passed using reconsilitation... sadly the Democrats (and I can say that cause no republican is voting for this) is ignoring what over half of the people of this country say they don't want and doing what they think is best for them...Today if Democrats have their way the great american experiment will die...
I'm wondering about whether the President can use the power of his office to essentially co-write legislation. And by power I mean issuing Executive Orders before the bill is finalized and passed by the House. Using the office as a bully pulpit to persuade seems completely legit. Using the office to help the wheeling and dealing for vote buying might pass constitutional muster, but is unseemly. But now issuing a pre-fact Executive Order?
That's a slippery slope. Already the House was inclined to give up some of it's authority to the Senate with Deem and Pass, before the Executive Order. Now this.
And I wouldn't be too snarky about this Executive Order tactic if I was an Obama supporter. There's going to be a massive swing to the right starting this November, and however the separation of the branches of government, inter and intra, is currently blurred and left unchallenged, that will be there for the republicans when they take over.
If this thing passes and when subsidies can't keep up with medicical inflation, will the American masses suffer short term memory again? Or do we have to go through another messy legislative process of curruption, lies, and tireless propaganda?
Sharon and all of your fellow bleeding hearts - Poor people with sick babies take them to the emergency room, they don't go uncared for. Almost no one thinks that is the best solution but what the rest of us, who are apparently far more informed than you, are concerned about is that this disgusting piece of legislation driven by hubris and demagoguery will destroy the world's best health care for everyone! The government can't run anything well except our Armed Forces (and even in that there are areas of malfeasance). If you love Motor Vehicles, just wait for when every doctor visit is the same and there are fewer and fewer doctors, drugs, and medical advances. Why should companies invest in what is now a government run utility? Are all of our best and brightest going to want to work for the electric company? Think!
Once passed and signed, an executive order has no effect on the bill. A woman can demand what she is guaranteed under the verbiage of the bill passed by both houses and signed by the president. He cannot rule from the throne. The bills say what they will say. You may approve or disapprove, I will not get into that tar pit, but the president has no power to nullify the law passed by Congress and signed by himself except by a bill passed by Congress that he signs that revokes the earlier bill. Sorry, this is blowing smoke.
We need this and no backing down, the only reason the Republicans do not want this
is because they are for the big huge insurance companies. You know it and I know it,
so give me a break and stop being so scared of everything.
We need this for Americans and I'm glad that we have a President who cares to keep us
moving into the future for a greater American.
Did you not hear on CNN tonight that all over the world young people from other countries
are watching us and we are the only industrialized nation without health care for our
people. I'm sure other countries think we are just down right stupid.
Well it is time for the Republican party to cry and lets see now we are a communist country.
Stop the scare tactics and stop being so afraid of change, the Republicans want to keep
us in the dark ages and you think you don't have jobs now well put these sorry a----back into
office and you will see what becomes of American, won't be one.
Just like Bush and all the others they just don't care for the American people.
You Go President Obama and take us into the future and let it be bright.
Legal experts at the US Catholic Conference of Bishops, National Right to Life Committee, Americans United for Life, and Family Research Council have confirmed that if the Senate bill is signed into law, it is a statutory mandate for the new health plans to include federal funding of elective abortion. The need for an Executive Order is evidence that this is true, and Congressional Democrats know it.
You get any farm assistance, subsidies, price supports or benefit from USDA and trade programs PA Farmer?
Let us know please. Farmers are the biggest beneficiaries of government programs.
Sharon; It's time to take your Kool-Aid
I still don't get where they think that the house can make changes to the senate bill, it's unconstitutional, a bill has to first pass the house, then the same bill (identical in every last word, without any changes) must pass the Senate... If this bill (the senate bill) passes the house, as is, then, and only then will it be held constitutional... in no other form will it be held enforceable... even when the IRS Threatens you.... Infact, that may be grounds to Sue the IRS for the threats and Harrasment
They also cannot make a second bill that is passed before the first... the idea of passing a law to remove restrictions on a law that has not even been signed into law is utter nonsense.... also since that bill would have to pass the Senate, that is prob pretty impossible to even pass... if it does pass, then we need to Vote out all Incubents because this would be rigged by both parties... and We are all in danger of loosing all our rights
Also, Do the Extreeme Democrates like Pelosi think it's ok to force Layoffs of Police, Firefighters, and Teachers, and Many other state workers, but Hire 16,000 New IRS agents... That's 320 New IRS workers Per state... I'm sure we'll feel real safe Without haveing any Police around anymore to protect use
@Sharon: Hmmm....looks like you are using scare tactics to convince yourself about this! You are young and naive about this, so go back to your dorm room and worship your "Messiah".
There's really only one question you need to ask yourself...
If this "healthcare" plane was so good, Why would Congress Exempt themselves from it?
Barack Obama is the worst President ever. He is incompetent, an outright liar and a narcissist. The sooner he is driven out, the better it is for the world. He wants to socialize everything and would sell his mother to get his votes.
We don't want this bill! Pelosi even said we will have to wait till it is passed to find out what is in the bill. Stop the insanity right now. We will not forget this in November you!
That is what is wrong with you and your party, hate and more hate.
That is why I hope the Republicans never get back into office.
So much hate and ugliness. You are not for America.
The end does not justify the means. Everyone who has participated in deception to ram this monstrous bill through (including this latest scam to pretend that the abortion issue is settled when it is not) has blood on their hands.
Looks to me that you are scared period.
Anyone not for this bill, you have to been brainwashed by the Republican party do any of you read
and study anything or do you just listen to Fox, Rush, Glen, Palin and all the other UnAmericans
out there. They are not for America, Bush was selling you down the river.
Forget where you all of you when Bush was getting you into Trillions of dollars into debt
didn't hear any of crying. President Obama is doing a great job. Best thing I ever did for my
country was to vote him into office. Now sit down and pay for your two wars that Bush
got you into. What a genius you gave us HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I do not believe the "yes" vote will be much more than 200. Look at what is happening to "Dingy" Harry Reid and other stalwarts of the Liberal Democrats. They are getting their lunch handed to them in spades by their constituents back home. I have been following politics since the mid-1980s and have a love of US history. There has never been a more overt attempt to shove the US towards socialism/communism since 1776...not even FDR or LBJ can claim this.
This is the latest in a long line of UnConstitutional government seizure of private industry. Reminds me of the old truism...First they came for the charities (ie welfare) and I didn't protest because I wasn't a charity. Next they came for Big Auto and I didn't protest because I wasn't Big Auto. Then they came for Big Banking (TARP, anyone?) and I didn't protest because I wasn't Big Banking. Then they came for 1/6th of our Nation's economy...oh, wait a minute...there's no one left to protest.
A vast majority of Americans don't want this bill. Those of us trained in true economics know how devastating this would be for the economy and our future. We also see that the same tricks that brought down Enron, WorldCom, and Lehman Brothers are being used by the Liberal cabal in the House, Senate and 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. This is the height of fear-mongering and the same lame class envy we've heard since the mid-80s.
Why else am I not concerned about this bill? Go to http://www.landmarklegal.com and read the case to be filed if this travesty is passed. The American people are fed up and aren't going to take it any more. Also, we haven't lasted as a nation for over 233 years to see it fall to this Gang Who Can't Shoot Straight.
"Don't Tread On Me"
God Bless America!!!
What is being forgotten by our friends on the left is just how precious rule of law is. But periodically people have to repeat history and put themselves through hell via their belief that that concepts and theories are equivalent to reality.
Bush never shot straight. So I do not know what you are talking about.
There is more American who want this. Fox news again getting into your head.
This is not socialism or communism. If you don't like America you can always get
out. People like you who spill hate is not an American anyway.
Your party can talk about abortion but where you who cared for the unborn you did not
care if Bush murdered thousands of innocent Iraqi children.
Where was your care and concern. Hypocrite party
Protect the unborn and give decent health care to the living.
yes life is precious but
you know as well as I do that women will go and get abortions where ever they
can, years ago they died in back room abortion rooms. This will continue.
Yes it is wrong and President Obama wants to protect life but if women who
continue to get pregnant and do not want the babies they will get them no matter
There has never been a more overt attempt to shove the US towards socialism/communism since 1776…not even FDR or LBJ can claim this.
You may want to research Huey P. Long.
Also, we haven't lasted as a nation for over 233 years to see it fall to this Gang Who Can't Shoot Straight.
Don't brag about our 233 year history. That's only 7-12 generations of American's you're talking about. The U.S. is still considered an infant nation when it comes to having a history.
The issue here is about the federal government taking our tax dollars to pay for abortions. That should not be. Abortions are still legeal. The woman still has a choice but she has to pay for it herself.
we don't like to kill our unborn, we need them to grow up and fight our wars!
...i am totally anti abortion, so don't take that as if i'm not... you people will believe anything... look up "status quo"...that should be easy enough... retardicans

ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- The investigation continued Wednesday of an aircraft that hit a vacant auto center, killing a 4-year-old boy and leaving four others injured.
The crash occurred Tuesday night at 7th Avenue and Ingra Boulevard around 5:00 p.m.
According to the National Transportation Safety Board, witness accounts show that the Cessna aircraft had trouble from the start.
After it departed off of Runway 25 at Merrill Field, witnesses on the streets claim they could hear that something was wrong.
Witness accounts state the plane was unstable and flying nose-up. It clipped the east side of the Ingra House roof, and then crashed into the vacant auto center.
"That's when we knew that it was bad and saw it fly into the power lines here that building and we all grabbed fire extinguishers ran over and tried to assist them," said Brian Caton, one of the first on the scene to help victims.

Super Bowl Sunday is the second-largest day for U.S. food consumption after Thanksgiving Day. The lineup often includes fat- and calorie-packed selections such as pizza, chicken wings and nachos. But it doesn't have to be entirely unhealthy. Take Off Pounds Sensibly, the nonprofit weight-loss support organization with several chapters in Brevard County, offers these tips:
? 1. Have a small snack before you arrive at a party to curb your appetite. Overeating can be avoided if you don't arrive hungry.
? 2. Start out with foods that will leave you feeling fuller faster. A handful of almonds, containing about 160 calories, is a smart choice.
? 3. Go easy on anything with a thick, creamy consistency, such as dips or casseroles. Most often, these are high in calories
? 4. Take a walk around the buffet and consider your choices before putting anything on your plate. If you choose a high-fat or high-calorie item, take a small amount and put it on your plate last, after you've filled the space with healthier options.
? 5. Guacamole is high in the "good" types of fat - mono and polyunsaturated. Guacamole is also high in beta carotene, fiber, folate and potassium, making this a relatively guilt-free option.

Introduction – Central Distribution Module
Key Features and Benefits
Complex Material Development
About VG Scienta
The central distribution concept from VG Scienta provides more options in new material development, where the process could include steps such as in-situ analysis and multiple deposition stages for the qualification of material development without atmospheric exposure of the sample. Complexity is ever increasing in today's materials and material research owing to the development of novel materials, barrier layers, coatings, and special protective layer materials, which are produced by multiple layers of deposition in accurately controlled environments. Devices are often fabricated by depositing over 20 films of unique recipes in order to deliver the optimum performance.
VG Scienta has created a range of 'plug and play' modules that can be operated either as a component of a central distribution handler, or as an independent workstation with a fast entry load lock. The central distribution handler is available in both fully automated and semi-automated setups. The fully automated configuration that is controlled by the central control system provides rapid, repeatable, ultra precise positioning of the sample inside the process chambers.
The standard units are available with six exit ports for handling samples of sizes of up to 100 mm. There is an option to increase the number of ports to 8 based on chamber size and orientation. For highly intensive research programs, there is an option to integrate multiple cluster tools in order to provide more number of options in material development.
Central Distrubution Handler Design
The following are the key features and benefits of the central distribution module:
Complex materials require complicated processes with integrated analysis and multiple deposition steps for optimum material development. The OFT EDGE tool from VG Scienta is suitable for complex material development. In today's world, the requirement for innovative materials is ever increasing and devices need to produced under highly controlled environment with focus on host/dopant ratio, life time, thinness, brightness, electron transfer, cost, flexibility, scalability, durability, and efficiency. Accurately controlling the environment wherein the materials are fabricated becomes crucial to obtain the optimum performance from these highly engineered devices.
Typical Structure
The OFT EDGE tool provides a flexible step by step approach to deposit encapsulation layers, TCOs, and organics on many different substrates from glass, silicon and plastics with sizes of up to 10 mm. Many different configuration options are available for this tool in order to fulfill the prerequisites of the user base platform. Moreover, the tool provides a good base for future upgrades. The following are the example configurations:

Snooki is glowing!
The Jersey Shore star posted a new photo of herself, her soon-to-be hubby Jionni LaValle and her protruding belly on Instagram today and wrote, "My family," and while it could be the adorable white maxi dress that's giving Snooks a beautiful glow (or her tan), it's probably the anticipation of motherhood creeping up.
Snooki, currently eight months pregnant and ready to pop any day now, also posted another precious photo of her bump on Instagram.
This time, it was a snapshot of Jionni sleeping with his arms around her belly—awww!
"My two men cuddling already," she wrote.
Are you as excited as we are to welcome baby Lorenzo? Let us know in the comments!

Orthodox Faith
Welcome to the Orthodox Christian Faith
Although we are one of the major religious groups in the world, we often find that we are not well understood by members of other faiths. The points below represent our response to some of the questions about us:
We are Orthodox Christians
Many people confuse us with Orthodox Jews, but the similarity of names is pure coincidental. Actually, Orthodox is a Greek word meaning "proper worship" and "right faith."
You don't have to be "Ethnic" to be Orthodox
Converts are welcome in our parishes, and a large proportion of the services are conducted in English.
Greek Orthodox and Russian Orthodox are the same religion
The Orthodox Church is actually a "family" of churches, consisting of many ethnic groups. Each ethnic group, however, makes use of the title "Greek" in their official title. The reasons being: 1.) It is the language of the New Testament; and 2.) The language of the Christian Faith for one thousand years, when it was one Church, was Greek. We have parishes that are Greek, Antiochian, Serbian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Albanian, etc., plus the Orthodox Church in America (OCA) which is historically Russian.
We are the Church experiencing growth
Our total membership is estimated at 250 million – and rapidly increasing, due to the religious revival in Eastern Europe. In California, and many other states, we are officially considered the fourth major faith.
We have been active in the Ecumenical Movement
As Orthodox, we feel we should do everything possible to promote Christian unity. At the same time, our adherence to Christian Tradition has sometimes made our participation difficult.
We are Catholic, but not Roman Catholic
Catholic is a Greek word that means "according to the whole." We believe that we profess the Christian Faith in its fullness. We, therefore, are a Catholic Church. Catholic, in the sense of being "Universal," is also attributed to Orthodox since all people may join. The Western Church (headed by Rome) was with us until 1054, when East and West split, primarily over increasing authority the Pope tried to assume.
We are Evangelical, but not Protestant
Evangelical comes from the Greek word meaning "Gospel." We are very Gospel centered – in fact, a Gospel Book is always kept on our Holy Altar Table. But we are not Protestant, since we have never had a Reformation; our history goes back unbroken to the early Church found in the Book of Acts.
Our "Official Translation" of the Bible is the Original
The Orthodox Church is the only Church in Christendom that has read the New Testament in the original language since it was written. Some parts of it were actually written to churches in Greece (1 & 2 Corinthians and 1 & 2 Thessalonians).
We follow the Traditions of God, not of men
The Holy Bible itself could be described as "Tradition written down." "Unwritten Tradition" has also been preserved in our Church, from the Apostles themselves. As St. Paul said, "…stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter" (2 Thessalonians 2:15).
We are Conservative, but not Fundamentalists
To properly interpret the Bible one must take the literal parts literally and the symbolic parts symbolically. Tradition is our guide for telling, which is which. Even the early Christians knew that Genesis and Revelation contain a lot of symbolic language.
Orthodox Church Buildings are Christian Temples
Like the early Christians, our religious practices are based on Old Testament sources, fulfilled in Christ. These include: synagogue worship; ceremonial meals (like the Last Supper); and the ritual of the Temple. Early Christian worship, as described in Revelation chapters 4 & 5, includes vestments, incense, bowing down in prayer, etc.
Our Icons (holy pictures) are not idols
Icon and idol are both Greek words – with very different meanings. An idol is literally an image of God that is "dreamed up" by human beings. By contrast, the Bible calls Christ Himself the "icon" or "image" of God seven times (example, Colossians 1:15).
Married men are ordained to the holy priesthood
Ever since New Testament times, most of our priests have had the choice to marry (See Titus 1:5-6). Priest is just a shortened form of the Greek word "Presbyter," meaning "Elder." We call them "father" as a natural term of respect for an elder in the Christian family (See 1 Corinthians 4:15-16).
Our Sunday Services are called the Divine Liturgy
A Liturgy is a service done by a liturgist (leitourgos) – in other words, a priest who leads his people in formal, "liturgical" worship. In New Testament Greek, Christ and St. Paul are each referred to as a "leitourgos" (Hebrews 8:1-2 & Romans 15:16). Our Liturgy is the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
You are welcome to attend Orthodox Services
Visitors are frequently seen at our churches and they are welcome to come and experience Orthodox Christian worship with us. To receive Holy Communion one must be a baptized and/or chrismated Orthodox Christian, but at the end of the Liturgy, everyone is invited to join the faithful to receive blessed bread from the priest in token of Christian fellowship.
Church Design & Iconography
The Greek Orthodox Church of All Saints was built in 1943 as a small basilica. Traditionally, Orthodox churches are built small to enhance the sense of community in worship. The collective energy and resourcefulness of the entire Community are working to provide a spiritual atmosphere in accordance with Orthodox Christian teachings. Adhering to the Orthodox tradition, the design of All Saints is that of an ark, the ship that leads us to heaven. The church is divided into three parts: 1.) the Narthex; 2.) the Nave; and 3.) the Holy Altar.
The Narthex
The entrance of the church is the Narthex. This is where the Orthodox Christian prepares himself for worship by making his offering and lighting a candle as a symbol of prayer and confessing that Jesus is the Light of the world. The Light of Christ is to be reflected in the life of the believer and shared with others. We do not worship the holy pictures; we show honor and respect to the saint or saints depicted. We ask that they pray with us and for us.
The life of the Virgin Mary is depicted in the Narthex. Upon entering the church one realizes the important role of the Virgin Mary as the "handmaid of the Lord…" (Luke 1:38). Just as Christ was born through the Virgin Mary, we enter His House through her life. Within the Narthex we have five scenes of the Virgin Mary's life: The Nativity of the Theotokos; The Parental Bond depicting Ss. Joachim, Anna, & the Virgin Mary; The Entrance of the Virgin Mary to the Temple; The Dormition of the Virgin Mary; and The Life-Giving Fountain. On the ceiling of the Narthex is the Virgin Mary depicted as the Heavenly Queen surrounded by the angelic hosts. Surrounding this icon are ten Old Testament prophets whose message relates to the virgin birth of the Messiah. They are the Prophets: Jacob; Moses; Gideon; David; Solomon; Isaiah; Ezekiel; David; Zechariah; Habakkuk.
The Nave
Upon entering the Nave we gather in the area where the congregation participates in the services. The arched ceiling is symbolic of the truth that God is eternal. In churches following the Gothic design there is an attempt to reach toward heaven, while the vaulted ceiling in a Byzantine church serves to bring a little of heaven down to earth. The design, as well as, the traditional adornment of the interior of our church is based on this concept. The design of our church follows early Christian tradition, and is patterned after a more or less typical village church in Greece.
The Holy Altar
Separating the Holy Altar from the Nave is the Iconostas (Icon Screen) which symbolizes the curtain in the Temple in Jerusalem that separated the people from the Holy of Holies. Our Iconostas was hand-carved in Greece. The icons shown here exist to show our unity with Christ, His Mother, the Angels, and Saints.
There is a traditional order to the placement of the icons that adorn the Iconostas. Facing the Holy Altar, to the right of the Royal Entrance (the Royal Gates close off that area), is the icon of Christ and next to it, that of St. John the Baptist. To the left of the Royal Entrance is the icon of the Holy Mother of God (Theotokos) holding the Christ Child and next to it the icon to which our parish is dedicated, All Saints. It is the practice that this icon may vary from one Orthodox Church to another depending on the Saint or event in the Lord's life in whose honor the church has been named. The icon next to the All Saints Icon is that of St. Athanasios and the icon next to St. John the Baptist is that of Saints Cosmas and Damian. On either side of these icons are doors with depictions of the Archangels Michael (left side) and Gabriel (right side). These doors bear the icons of the Archangels who guard the entrance to the Holy Altar, symbolic of God's Kingdom, and are used by the acolytes (Altar servers) to exit and enter the Holy Altar. The Royal Entrance, mentioned above, is used only by the ordained clergy, Bishops, Priests, or Deacons, to enter or exit the Holy Altar. Over the Royal Entrance is the icon of the Last Supper, reminding us that our participation in the Divine Liturgy places us at that sacred event.
The holiest place in our church is located behind the Iconostas. Through the Royal Entrance one sees the Holy Altar Table. It represents the Heavenly Banquet Table the Kingdom of God. Placed in the center is the Holy Tabernacle for the Reserved Sacrament of Holy Communion and the eternal vigil light signifying the presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. In front of this is the Book of the Holy Gospels, a blessing Cross, and four candlesticks. Directly behind the Holy Altar Table stands a Cross with an icon of the crucified Christ. To the left of the Holy Altar Table is the Table of Oblation where the holy utensils (the communion chalice, paten, etc.) are kept, and where the bread and wine are prepared for the celebration of the Holy Eucharist. The icon in this niche depicts the Nativity of Christ. To the right is the Table of Service. It is here that the priest will place items needed for various services. The icon in this niche depicts Jesus Christ in Extreme Humility.
Above the Holy Altar the icon of the Mother of God is located in the Apse. This icon of the Virgin Mary with Christ seated on her lap is called the "Platytera." The Virgin Mary is the example for the entire assembly of believers who choose to live Christ-centered lives. The term "Platytera" is taken from one of the hymns of the Church which refers to the womb of Mary as "wider (platytera) than the heavens" because she gave birth to the Son and Word of God, Who is infinite and eternal, yet entered time and human history as a man (John 1:1-14). Depicted also are angels who worship in awe the mystery of the Divine Incarnation. Above the Platytera are placed the icons of the 12 Apostles with Christ at the center. Among the twelve Apostles are also added St. Paul and St. James the brother of the Lord and 1st Bishop of Jerusalem.
The area in front of the Iconostas is called the Soleas. This area serves as the place where baptisms, weddings and other sacraments are performed. Located to the right in this area is the Bishop's Throne symbolic of Christ as the High Priest present at all services. Next to the Bishop's Throne is the Chanter Stand where chanters and readers will assist during the services. On the north side of the solea is a wood-carved Ciborium symbolic of the Tomb of Christ. Next to it is the pulpit which symbolizes the stone that was rolled in front of the Tomb of Christ. It was there that the angels proclaimed to the myrrh-bearing women the Good News of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
More About Icons
The Orthodox Church calls for the elaborate use of symbolism and iconography in the interior decoration of the church building. The style of iconography follows typical Byzantine traditions. To the eye of Western Christians accustomed to the religious art of the Renaissance, Byzantine Art sometimes appears austere. For Orthodox Christians, however, there was a reason for developing this style. Icons are not simply portraits representing people, but graphic presentations of spiritual truths. They remain unmoved, formal, almost unreal, only a hint of emotion appearing on the face of figures. Icons are not intended to evoke emotional response as much as understanding and wisdom. Icons are symbols, not idols. Icons are venerated, not worshipped. When we venerate icons the honor is directed to Christ or to the Saint depicted on the icon, not to the wood, paint, or colors of the icon.
In the Orthodox Church the icons bear witness to the reality of God's presence with us in the mystery of faith. The icons are not meant to be human pictures, but visual aids to contemplation and prayer. We are to look beyond the external and deep into the spiritual meaning of living the Christian life. Icons are the witnesses of the presence of the Kingdom of God to us, and so our own presence to the Kingdom of God in the Church. It is in the Orthodox Christian Faith that icons are not only permissible, but are spiritually necessary because "the Word became flesh and dwelt among us" (John 1:14). Christ is truly man and, as man, truly the "icon of the invisible God" (Col. 1:15, 1 Cor. 11:7, 2 Cor. 4:4).
The power of icons is not mechanical or magical, but spiritual. It is a working of God's grace in the act of a personal expression of faith and through the intercessory prayers of the Saints who live in God's glory. Icons teach us about Christ and His ministry, as well as, about the Saints and their record of faith. As sacred art, icons are windows into heaven: they seek to symbolize the transfigured cosmos and the victory of redeemed creation by the glory of Christ. In the words of St. John of Damascus:
"The icon is a song of triumph, and a revelation, and an enduring witness to the victory of the Saints".

Rebels racing to Indianapolis
The Midwest Rebels made a major statement Sunday in Ottawa at the United States Specialty Sports Association Major and AAA State Tournament. Head coach Brian Ash, coach Phil Hannon and manager John Griffin led their 15-year-old squad to a remarkable second-place finish.
"All the kids contributed to make it a great weekend," Griffin said. "Brian Ash and Phil Hannon coached the kids extremely well, and the kids responded with effort and execution."
The achievement either capped off a highly successful summer or proved a springboard for national endeavors. Teams that finish in the top four of state tournaments open doors to national World Series tournaments. Consider the door open for the Rebels.
"Plans are being explored with the intent of going to Indianapolis/Greenfield, Ind., for the 15-and-under NBC World Series," Griffin said. "We are trying to pull together all of our families to go."
The World Series begins July 25 and runs through July 31.
Only 10 teams earned a trip to the tournament in Ottawa. Qualifying for state was made difficult by a short season that was greatly complicated by plenty of rainouts.
"Even though there were only 10 teams, the teams that were there were pretty darn good," Griffin said.
The teams were a mix of AAA and major division teams. Major teams generally consist of players that are considered the best in their age group. They characteristically have played together for years and compete in the most competitive tournaments nationwide.
'AAA' teams -- such as the Rebels -- consist of players whose love for the game and desire to improve motivate their participation. Their travel schedule is lighter and is more regionally focused.
The Rebels opened pool play Friday against the AAA Wichita Dawgs. The Rebels announced themselves with a 10-1 routing.
Friday night's game was lost to a sudden thunderstorm that brought with it golfball- and baseball-size hail.
In contrast, Saturday and Sunday brought high humidity and temperatures in the mid-90s.
"The kids played their guts out in extreme situations," Griffin said.
At high noon Saturday the Rebels matched up against a major team in the K.C. Royals. Despite a tremendous effort from starter Ryan Jorgensen the Rebels fell 4-2.
"Even though Ryan got the loss against the K.C. Royals to have kept us in a 4-2 game against a major-division team was an outstanding performance," Griffin said.
Saturday evening the Rebels once again matched up with a AAA team, the Old Ballgame Monarchs. The Rebels dethroned the Monarchs with a 6-0 shutout.
The Rebels completed pool play with a 2-1 record. They accumulated that record while allowing only five runs.
Four teams were eliminated Friday and Saturday. The Rebels by virtue of their two wins and miniscule ERA was seeded third among the remaining six teams.
The Rebels met another AAA team Sunday morning in the Pittsburg-Farrell Insurance. The Rebels amassed seven 'insurance' runs in the 9-1whipping. The victory propelled the three-seed into the championship game.
In the title match, the Eudora nine were stung 10-2 by the Hornets; a AAA team from Shawnee Mission Northwest. The Hornets competed as a major-division team the past three years before a change in the spring.
"The championship game results were disappointing," Griffin admitted. "Yet to have played in it was a great experience.
"The Rebels' pitching staff made that experience possible. Daren Parker from Lawrence won two games in the tournament. Baldwin's Jorgensen and Cory Wright also pitched well.
"I was really pleased with our pitching through the first four games," Griffin said. "It was the best pitching performances of the year."
Now the manager, coaches and families must work out the details on a trip to Indy. The team itself has earned an opportunity to rest and heal.
As for this week, it's Dirk Kinney's turn. The Eudora coach leads his 16-year-old Rebels into state play Thursday at Johnson County 3 and 2. At stake is a possible invitation to the 16U World Series in Orlando, Fla.

After the trades Orlando made figured I would give an opinion on what the best lineup would be for Orlando.
Right now Orlando has 4 point guards which I figure will have to lead to a trade sooner rather than later. Jason Williams and Duhon are of course the backup guards. Nelson and Arenas starting at the point is still at question. I've been vocal about wanting Orlando to trade for a point guard that can score consistantly. Unfortunately Nelson was not that guy. He and Arenas are young players. If Arenas does indeed stay healthy which I don't know, but if he did I would trade Nelson in a second or at least put him up to get some good offers to help the team elsewhere. The only worry I have with that is Nelson and Dwight have great chemistry which would lead me to believe he will be starting. Also hurt the chances of him being traded. I don't like the idea of having two point guards starting. If the team played LA who would guard Kobe? Certainly not Arenas.
Starting shooting guard should be Jason Richardson. Backups Q and Redick. Prefer Redick and Q be the backup for Turkoglu at the 3. Never got to see Earl Clark really play so it will be interesting to see what Orlando got.
Power forward position starter should be Bass with Anderson as the backup. Don't mind them with split minutes. Anderson isn't much of a rebounder, but he is good at the 3. Bass is more of a rebounder and he can shoot the ball at a distance as well. Bass brings a lot of energy to the lineup. I think he deserves this chance to start.
Center obviously Dwight Howard. Malik Allen and rookie center Daniel Orton will be the backup for him. Figure Allen will get the majority of the minutes with Orton coming off an injury. In any case I do believe Orlando didn't get better from the deals, but time will tell of course.
Starting lineup
SG-Jason Richardson
C-Dwight Howard
