~1/14 Dress up your pet day~
Dress Up Your Pet Day When : Always January 14th
Dress Up Your Pet Day gives you the opportunity to .... you guessed it......dress up your pet! Some pets like to get dressed up. Others, want nothing to do with it. This day is an opportunity to really dress up your pet(s). Make something for them to wear. Or, go to a pet store and buy an outfit. It's winter, so something warm is best. Sorry, we don't have any ideas on how to dress up goldfish.
Do you dress up your pet(s)?
Don't have any anymore but if I did I would not dress them up.

|From another board:
Note: The poor weather was ice and blowing snow causing occasional white-outs. Just about did one of those myself on Sunday. Drove what ordinarily is 75 miles (and the conditions were not, at that time, as bad as they were in northern Iowa at the same time.)
Those of you unfortunate to have not grown up in the northern plains may puzzle why they were out in that weather. Those of you who grew up on the plains and may still be there will understand that if you have to stay home in bad weather, you aren't going to go anywhere from November to April.
No doubt they were on the way to spend some time with his father who lives in Northern Iowa. This time, it didn't work out as they had planned. It happens.
The outpouring warmth, although he doesn't crave the attention, can't hurt.

Former University of Louisville center Derrick Caracter appears headed for an NAIA school, men's basketball coach Rick Pitino confirmed yesterday.
"I think it's an excellent choice for him," Pitino said at the Cardinal Caravan at Captain's Quarters restaurant. "Sitting out is not going to benefit Derrick, but playing right away will."
Pitino said he was unaware whether Caracter had chosen a school yet. Caracter's mother, Winnie Terry, informed assistant coach Steve Masiello of his decision, Pitino said. ...

Forgive me if this has been adressed before. I have tried to read all of the posts on this subject. My question is simple: How many bourbons are now available that are labelled "Bottled in Bond" I would like to set aside a special place for these in my display ( and for comparison) but I do not know how many there are. Any help?:cool:

Minutes of the
PRESENT: Mike Arguello, Chris Barkley, Monika Brannick, Mike Byron, MaryAnn Drinan, Katheryn Garlow, Doug Key, Stan Levy, Mario Mendez, Maria Miller, Ruben Murcia, Morgan Peterson, Suzann Norton, Jose Rangel, Joe Stanford, Sara Thompson, Rocco Versaci, April Woods
ABSENT: Bill Bedford, Judy Cater, Nancy Galli, Fari Towfiq, Anne Voth
GUESTS: Rebecca Faubus, Jose Fernandez
CALL TO ORDER: The meeting was called to order by the president, Chris Barkley, at , in Room SU-30.
Welcome: Morgan Peterson and Sara Thompson were welcomed as new Senators.
Approval of Minutes: The minutes of March 18, were approved as amended.
Motion 1 MSC Woods, Garlow: Faculty Senate approval of the outcome of the vote for the following committee appointments:
Committee on
Shayla Sivert
Patti Waterman
Chair of the Committee
on Committees:
Motion 2 MSC Stanford, Peterson: Faculty Senate ratification of the following faculty members to the Committee on Committees:
Doug Key
Ruben Murcia
Suzann Norton
Anne Voth, Chair
April Woods
Senate Liaison to PFF: Chris Barkley reported that the members of the Faculty Council and the PFF Executive Board have distributed a statement indicating their commitment to work together in the best interests of faculty. Establishing liaisons has been suggested as a way to keep the lines of communications open between the two bodies. She added that the Senate might wish to recommend that the individual appointed as the liaison be a member of the faculty council. This would be useful because council members are already members of the PFF/Senate Leadership Board and are privy to all of those discussions. One Senate member disagreed, stating that all senate members should be considered equally.
Motion 3 MSC
Discussion followed on how the position should be appointed. Chris Barkley suggested that those senate members interested in being considered should contact Committee on Committee chair April Woods by the end of the week for consideration at the next Faculty Senate meeting on Monday, April 8th.
MaryAnn Drinan added that the Executive Board of the Palomar Faculty Federation will discuss a liaison to the Faculty Senate at their next meeting.
Executive Session &
Agenda Items: Following up on discussion which occurred at the March 18th Senate meeting in relation to bringing items to the Senate for discussion, Chris Barkley stated that according to the Faculty Constitution, any Senator or faculty member can call for an Executive Session, but what is not clear is when during the meeting it can be called and if any notice should be given. She added that in an effort to run an effective meeting it is hoped that Senate members or visitors will inform her or the Senate Secretary of the issues they wish to discuss in Executive Session prior to the start of the meeting. The Faculty Manual also states that discussion at the Faculty Senate should be limited to items on the agenda unless there is concurrence of the Senate. Senate members agreed that some flexibility should be allowed if the Senate President or Secretary is informed of the issue prior to the meeting.
Discussion followed on the current agenda format and the use of "other" on the Agenda in bringing items forward. There were varied viewpoints on whether this issue places restrictions on individuals wishing to bring items forward.
PFF & Faculty
Leadership: Chris Barkley reported that the members of the Faculty Council and the PFF Executive Board met on Wednesday, March 20th. Members of both groups will continue to meet and discuss issues impacting faculty.
Academic Standards &
Practices Committee: Joe Stanford reminded those present of the meeting hosted by the members of the Academic Standards & Practices Committee on Thursday, April 11th at in Room D-10.
Proposed Layoffs
of Faculty: Jose Fernandez asked for Senate support in the form of a resolution opposing the proposed layoffs in the Counseling Department. Chris Barkley indicated that this item would be presented for Senate action on April 8th. Discussion followed on the need for faculty unity on this issue.
Chris Barkley added that the March 15th notices have gone out, but the layoff notices themselves do not need to go out until May 15th and we will still not have a new budget on that date. She indicated that the following arguments will be brought forward:
· If there are suddenly four fewer faculty serving our students as counselors, the entire program will suffer.
· In terms of the processes we use to determine who to hire on campus, it was determined through the Staff Priorities Committee that these four positions were needed.
· The school has already invested funds in training these faculty with the professional development they've done this year, including the week-long orientation, academic technology, etc.
Adoption of new
President's Advisory
Council: Reporting on the President's Advisory Council meeting, Chris Barkley stated that the group voted to disband PAC and EMPC for the establishment of the Strategic Planning Council.
ASG: Rebecca Faubus provided the following ASG report:
Members of the
ASG have just returned from a trip to
Box: Chris
Barkley reported that a letter was sent to the Senate Suggestion Box with an
article on
ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned at
Respectfully submitted,
April Woods, Secretary

Foam Positioning Wedges by Medline. These positioning wedges can be used anywhere you need firm yet comfortable support. The Nylex covers make them very easy to clean; just wipe them down with any household cleaner or soap. Measurements in Option box are shown as Length x Width x Rise.
Category: Foam Bed Wedges
I bought this product for my father who is bedridden. I was always trying to fix the pillows "just right" behind him so he could sit up to eat, read and watch TV. With this pillow he can now sit up straight or lay at an angle comfortably. The surface is easy to clean and it is firm but very light.
Pros:Very manageable.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
Really helps with repositioning in bed. Much better than pillows and because of the plastic covering, if any soiling occurs, you can just wipe it off.
Pros:Lightweight,effective for repositioning, easy to clean, non bulky, seems to keep it's shape.
Cons:None that I can think of.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
This for my son who is in a vegetative state
Pros:It is light weight, large enough for his body. Easy to clean
Cons:Because ofthe size sometimes bulky
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
Its amazing, I got my order next day. It was exactley as promised
much more effective than using pillows

Anyone and everyone can post your runs, cross-training, abdominal work, rest days, race plans, training questions, etc. The only stupid question is the one you did not post. There's a great mix of beginners and veterans, runners and walkers, and maniacs and returners (from injury, to running, to RWOL). We're all a little crazy here too! While this thread is a terrific source of motivation for runners and serves as outstanding accountability, you'll quickly find this remarkable group to be highly supportive of all life experiences. So, come on in, put your feet up and stay awhile (not literally)! And whoever is up first is welcome to start the thread and we definitely keep some weird hours around here.
Youth has no age. ~ Picasso * 1st road race: Charleston Distance Run 15 Miler - 1974. - Voice
Good morning runners! Saturday: SRD. Other than pushing snow around I was inactive yesterday. We're expecting record low temps for the next two days, so I'm considering running today since I'm not sure when we're supposed to get out of the artic basement.
Looking forward to the Chargers - Bengals playoff game @ 1 pm. My youngest will be sporting his San Diego jersey at a local gathering place cheering for our team. I'm sure we'll be out-numbered by Cinny fans. Run inspired!
Morning, Moth & Dailies! 6 done for me, 13 degrees and out before sunrise, but there was no wind so it was bearable once I warmed up. A decent January run, all things considered.
Ran 51:59 in my 10K on New Year's Day. Given the conditions (18 degrees, windy, ice and snow on the course), it was acceptable. 3.5 minutes slower than my 10K PR, though.
Later I'm making chili and watching more football, that sounds like a good Sunday!
Morning Moth and Turtle. Will be heading out to local park for ~8 miles on the trails once the rain clears up.
Have a great Sunday All!
1-1 in my playoff picks so far. Taking both road teams today.
I burp in parking garages to assert my dominance
I'm 1/1 also.
morning, guys! in from a very cold and very wet 4. running in this stuff IS for warriors and ducks and um, maybe those bizarre blind fish that live under the arctic ocean? yiiick. i kept to the roads, and everything was fine until about an 1/8 from home, just by the lake park, when some bagel fetching mommy, who was texting @ the intersection slushed me but good. !!!!!!!###***AHHHH! if i WAS a warrior, i should have jumped in front of her monster dodge truck, held out my hand (sword!) and pointed and shouted YOU - SERIOUSLY - SUCK!
but, i didn't. i just shook off as much of the slush from my legs and ice-logged sneaks and headed home. but up in my head, now seriously running to get warm again, i was sending an army of giant flying squirrels THAT BITE, to pick her and her truck up and drop her in the middle of the frozen lake.
i feel like someone just gave me a brand new 10 speed bike — and it's just my feet!
7 slowish miles today. Recovery from 14mi at semi-fast pace yesterday. Enjoying this weather, 50s this morning! Tomorrow the high is 25..Gotta love the crazy weather in the south.
Happy Sunday, enjoy the football games!

Lol, mud. Maybe the ice bath helped with inflammation? I don't know if there is a positive in that other than hearing you retell it.
I finally had a decent run yesterday. 5 miles at an upper 9 pace. I wasn't planning on running at all, but we watched Forest Gump and I ate half a family size bag of peanut m&m's, so when the motivation hit me I figured I shouldn't put it to waste. I am thankful I did go out because it was sunny and in the 60's. Today we dropped over 30 degrees with another arctic cold front. I will probably put in 4 easy on the treadmill. And try to forget that vacation is over.
Did 4.75 miles today.Slow as the last 2 weeks have been but done.Still coughing a bit and have a nose full but I believe the fresh air helps.They are calling for rain and freezing rain later as well as very cold temps for the next few days so I just went for it this morning.
Morning gang! It is a frosty 14* here, but clear and dry at least. 7 miles with an overall pace of 8:14. Decided to do a progressive run. Felt good to start slow and finish at 7:11 pace. Only down side today was my hands became very cold and numb. I need better gloves for this cold weather. I will be joining many of you and enjoying today's football games. Run happy!
PR: 5k- 18:46 (09/2015), 12k- 49:25 (05/2015), 13.1- 1:29 (04/2015), 26.2- 3:22 (10/2015)
-2 feels like -20, and it will drop to around -28 tonight progressively throughout the day. Good thing I'm sore from yesterday, because I don't see myself running today. We will bundle up and take the dogs for a hike, that's about it. Wind chills will be dangerous tonight into tomorrow, I hope my car starts tomorrow, otherwise I may have to stay home. Dangitall!
I don't remember what it feels like to run outside with shorts and a tee shirt, haven't done that since October...
8 miles 1:25:25 - 10:40 avg. pace - recovery in snow.
Good morning all.
mpj - unscheduled icing while running, hmmm. If there is a next time (hopefully not),I suggest you forget about jumping in front of her monster truck and yelling at the idiot. Just use your warrior sword and slash her tires. Running Warrior defeats Dragon Monster Truck!
32* with 16mph north wind here, which qualifies as a heat wave. If I had waited to run I might have been able to get some significant wrg points because there is rain coming, but there's too many chores a'waitin'. So I ran a dry 12.2 mile at 10:32 average pace, finishing the truncated first week of the new year with 30.15 (36.34 for the full week).
It's going to be lot colder tomorrow for some of us, so run warm, and run happy!
2015 race schedule: Knoxville Covenant Health HM, 29 March
Bloomsday 12k, 3 May
Chattanooga 7 Bridges Marathon, 18 October
1* when we left for church this morning; -3*, feels like -25* now, and dropping. Joy. Schools here have already been called off for Monday in anticipation of wind chills of -50* to -60* tomorrow morning.
I had planned on 5 miles and a yoga class after church today, but DS was up most of the night and he didn't want to go to the Y. Instead, he came home and climbed right into bed. I'll try to do some yoga here at home later. This gives me a whopping 11 miles for the week, so plans are to overload next week, then mini-taper for Icebreaker. Of course, plans have a tendency to fall through, so we shall see.
14,000+ miles and still running rebounding from knee surgery!
Good afternoon all.
Just finished my run after church and breakfast with the family. 28F and snowing here. We're on the frint end of the storm - Right now it's fluffy snow, but we should get 6-10 inches of accumulation by night time followed by the arctic blasts that our Wisconsin friends are already living through.
30 min E / 8 strides / 10 min E
5.39 miles at 9:11 pace.
I've noticed my paces are slowing and it's taking more effort to complete my runs. I'll push through this week, but if it keeps up, it may be time for a cut back week after that. We'll see.
Happy running!
5k: 20:43 (Mar-15) 10k: 43:16 (Apr-14) HM: 1:35:28 (May-15) M: 3:22:53 (Oct-15)
8 miles at 11:00 pace. Cold and rainy and muddy
Oh MuddlePuddle...What Moldy said. I'm sorry it happened but always enjoy the telling of your stories!
Don't yet know whether I will have time or energy to run later. A lot depends on my current cross-training project which is proving ridiculously STUBBORN. The recent ice-storm broke a huge limb of a tree in my yard, and it's been dangling ever since. I'm terrified it's going to drop on someone, so I've borrowed a neighbor's long sawing thing. Taking a break after the first hour of sawing and sawing. It's high and at a bad angle, but today's the day this sucker's coming DOWN!

Sunday is supposed to be a rest day but I lost my battle with the Blerch yesterday morning and missed my LR - so made it up today. 30K, with the last 10K being intervals - 1K MP, 1K easy.
Redneck solution: Get some rope and borrow a truck from someone...problem solved
^^ It was in the high 30's today and I ran in shorts. Supposed to be zero [0] on Monday.
Rest day for me...complete rest no cross train or anything.
Hi Everyone,
Scarlett, I love your sign. I agree with SC - truck and rope, problem solved.
MudPuddle, sorry about what happened on your run. We have the same problem with large, obnoxious truck drivers in Texas, too.
Good luck to everyone out running in the freezing weather. XT in the gym today for me. Maybe a nice indoor track tomorrow.
Have a great week!
Scarlett: Hope the limb came off OK. Looks like a pretty good upper body workout.
Mudpud: Dang. I've had trucks splash cold water --yuk , but snow and slush? Double YUK!
Watching national weather report: Crazy cold for a lot of people.
Long run day: 60 min. on spin bike, 92 min. pool running endurance pace (felt like fast easy pace).
30 min. elliptical this morning and tried to do at least one set of reps on every exercise on that Runner's World Iron Strength Workout Video -- it's a good one (i.e. hard!).
Then watched my Bengals get Dalton'ed. Too many turnovers… sigh… I suppose I can wait another 23 years for our next playoff win...
Nothing witty or clever to put here….
fyi losthog. Today i didn't run. First day since I began my memorial streak in Nov.
I'm ready for 2014 now.
Looking forward to some miles next week!

There are those who will claim the amazing powers of real estate property valuation software and other real estate development software. While we can appreciate and understand how that software can help us better make decisions, we should still be aware of the limitations of it. We should never get too carried away with any technology.
Anyone in the real estate and real estate development business knows the importance of real estate development software. This kind of software varies from smaller packages to help a single owner understand how better to appraise a particular property, to composite packages that huge companies use to manage and grow their real estate portfolios. There is one thing in common all of these software applications have in common. They allow us to produce statistics and information to better make a decision. Anyone who is considering entering the world of property investment and who is computer literate should consider the importance of using real estate software to help them make better decisions. At the same time, it is important to understand, any software, and particularly real estate software, has limitations. Here is a look at the limitations of property management and real estate related software.
· Analysis. Analysis is at the heart of any decision. Just having figures and information will not be enough to make any decision. An informed decision comes from one that has been provided information. Analysis and understanding of what that data means, can only come from consideration and experience of whoever uses that information. There is still little that can replace the ability of an experienced person to analyse data and information.
· Input. It goes without saying any calculation can only be as good as the data that is provided to calculate that. In the case of property developments and real estate software, there will be many factors and inputs required. Some of these input values, if incorrect, can be detected by the software as not being realistic, but there are others that will not. Ensuring the quality of input data is an essential to ensuring quality of output. A property can only be properly valued with property valuation software if the input data is correct. There will be many inputs at that.
· Prediction. There will be those who have experience, or just have the ability to look at a piece of property or a project, and they can confidently invest. There are many examples of people who can do this, and do this in history. These people did not have access to such software and computers to aid their decisions. While there are not too many people who have this natural talent, what we can draw from this is simple. Software is limited to the number of input considerations it has been provided with. In most cases, many of the possible considerations are real and have been included. A sudden flood or other strange natural occurrence can greatly influence an investment project. There are many social elements and other political factors that can change the considerations and elements that make up any calculation. Software can only predict based on what we know now, it does not really create a prediction.
Ultimately, it is a human that is still making the decisions. Well, hopefully, in most cases. Anyone, from the individual, to the biggest organisations, must understand these limitations and do their best to reduce factors that will make software results closer to reality. Analysis is still performed best by those who have many years of experience. Data entry must be made carefully, and a greater knowledge and understanding of what could happen, beyond normal market conditions by anyone will only come from experience.

Government spending >> I'm not liberal. I'm not conservative. About the unemployment extension, I can see the right's point but nowhere on Rush Limbaugh's show or on Fox News do you hear about the farm subsidy. The free government money that these farmers are getting include 11 Republican congressmen who have received millions of dollars of free government money yet are bashing people on unemployment.
Harbison Column >> My only response to Jim Harbison's latest commentary is, I tried contacting Rep. Steve Pearce several times over the last year about jobs, not repeal Obamacare and all I got in response was nothing but more repeal Obamacare.
Gov. Christie >> Just watching all the controversy in New Jersey with Gov. Christie and his debacle with the George Washington Bridge tie-up. He is going to be running for president in 2016 for the Republican Party? I don't want this man anywhere near the nuclear trigger.
UTEP >> Way to go UTEP basketball players. You screwed up even worse than Pete Rose. At least he has got enough money to survive. What are you going to do now because no one will take you.
Roads >> I agree with the Sound Off caller about fixing city roadways. I live on the East Mesa in the city limits and the roadways are appalling. Shame on you City Council.
Home invasion >> The Sun-News headline in Thursday's paper reads, "Family Honors Slain Suspect." There is nothing to honor about a man who broke into another man's home with malice in mind. There is nothing to honor about a man whose gang affiliation was well known to the police. If his family wanted to honor him they should have taught him better.
City Election >> It appears the District 6 City Council election was decided by money. Ceil Levatino got a whopping $22,235 in total, not including $6,700 from the National Association of Realtors; Mark Cobb, $9,519; and Curtis Rosemond, a meager $5,886.
Krauthammer column >> Mr. Krauthammer declares Israel to be "profoundly democratic," though of course almost half of the adult population ruled by Israel has no right to vote.
Harbison column >> As Jim Harbison explains it, because of the government, "we can no longer decide what kind of light bulbs we buy." I just got back from the home store and there must have been 200 different types of light bulbs. I guess Mr. Harbison doesn't get out much.
Harbison Column >> As Mr. Harbison notes, Democrats have held the Legislature for 80 years. When Governor Martinez took office we were ranked "27th best state to do business" by Forbes. We are now 45th for business (and 50th for quality of life). Same Legislature, new governor, what a difference.
Organ Mountains >> Supporters of the land grab keep mentioning Broad Canyon and the Butterfield Stagecoach road as tourist attractions. Entry to that canyon is blocked by a locked gate and the site where the road is visible is also posted.
District Attorney >> DA Mark D'Antonio did do a jury trial, a child abuse case, State v. Roberto Alvidrez on Dec. 18. The defendant was found not guilty, this is what happens when you have a politician for DA and not a trial attorney.
Gay Marriage >> Cherie McGinn's letter on Jan. 10 gives the best way to talk to your children -- or grandchildren -- about love in its many manifestations. Thank you for your intelligence and compassion, Ms. McGinn.

Key Club raises funds for schools in Guatemala
During the last school year, Southern Regional's Key Club organized a fundraiser for "Hug it Forward," an organization that facilitates the construction of 21 "bottle schools'' in Guatemala and El Salvador since 2009. Bottle school construction uses empty plastic water bottles stuffed with newspaper for insulation.
Megan Valeriani, who graduated in June, organized the fundraiser with a breakfast at Applebees just before Hurricane Sandy hit. ...
Megan's hard work raised over $2,500.

Sean Moore, a senior outside linebacker on Eastern York High School's football team, can't wait for the first home game Friday night against Columbia.
"This is going to be a huge game," Moore said. "We want to go out there and give everybody a good show."
Part of the show this season will include seeing how Eastern's athletic teams handle the school's new turf field, which was installed over the summer and is ready for play.
Resurfacing the track and installing a turf field have been a contentious topic in the district since 2010, with some people hesitant to pay the estimated $800,000 price tag.
But the turf is in place, with many high school teams already excited to be using the surface. The girls' field hockey team hosted a game in the stadium last Tuesday, and the boys' and girls' soccer teams have used it for back-to-back practices this week.
That's not to mention the practices and scrimmages the football team has held in the stadium to prepare for Friday's game.
The difference: Christian Buser, a senior defensive end, said the turf surface allows for a much faster game. Moore agreed, and said making cuts during plays was much easier.
Senior cornerback Justin Keller mentioned the turf's surface is sometimes warmer than the surrounding temperature.
But Keller said the temperature won't be a factor during game day, even if it is warmer.
"There will be too much adrenaline going through us," Keller said.
Richard Brubaker, the varsity football coach, said the players will be safer because the surface will be consistent, without any holes or divots to cause injury. Brubaker also said he hopes the team's excitement about the new turf will give the players extra cause to prepare for games.
"I think they take a certain amount of pride in it," Brubaker said.
Brubaker said games can be played much better in inclement weather on the new surface, which will decrease the costs incurred for canceled games.
From the ground: The actual construction of the turf field took only a few months, but the field will require continued care to keep the "new field" sheen.
Timothy Mitzel, the principal of Eastern York High School, said a "spreader," which looks like a street cleaner, will come in every six to eight weeks to redistribute the rubber pellets that get displaced during the field's use. The maintenance on the field isn't more than before, but Mitzel said it does take a different form.
All play: The football team is not the only one noticing the faster speeds and admiring the new field. Keenan Schaeffer, the varsity boys' soccer coach, said the surface allows for less friction between the ball and the ground, which makes for a faster-paced game.
Schaeffer also said the consistent surface allows the team to anticipate how the soccer ball will bounce on the ground, which gives them an advantage over teams who aren't used to playing on a synthetic surface.
Senior Andrew Wells, a captain and forward on the boys' soccer team, said the turf ensures the playing field will be smooth -- even if it has rained or the football team just finished its practice.
Wells also said having the chance to be the first seniors on the soccer team to play on the turf is an amazing opportunity. He said the pride in the community about the field inspires him to be at the peak of his game.
"It means you want to play your hardest," Wells said. "To represent what they gave you."

Divestment Movement Escalates
This week, the national fossil fuel divestment movement escalated, as student blockades popped up at Harvard and Washington University in St. Louis. By the end of the week, 8 students had been arrested across the two campuses, the first arrests since the fossil fuel divestment campaign launched nearly two years ago.
The skirmish at Harvard touched off Wednesday, where students organized as Divest Harvard have been pushing the university to get rid of the oil, gas, and coal holdings in its $33 billion endowment. Harvard's president, Drew Faust, has dug in against Divest Harvard's demands, even denying that the fossil fuel industry is blocking meaningful action to address climate change. Facing an administration that refuses to distance itself from the fossil fuel corporations driving climate crisis, Divest Harvard launched a blockade of President Faust's office that lasted more than 24 hours. On Thursday morning, Harvard University police arrested undergraduate Brett Roche -- the first arrest in the national divestment movement. Roche's arrest marks an increasingly hardline response from Harvard's administrators, as the university demonstrates a willingness to use police force to defend investment in fossil fuel corporations.
Brett Roche may have been the first divestment activist arrested on campus this week, but he certainly wasn't the last. This morning, Washington University in St. Louis joined Harvard in infamy: seven students were arrested as they attempted to deliver a letter to the university's board of trustees. Just days before, WashU Students Against Peabody ended a historic 17-day sit-in which demanded that Greg Boyce, notorious CEO of Peabody Energy, the world's largest private coal company, be removed from the university's board. During negotiations, Washington University chancellor Mark Wrighton flatly refused to respond to students demands. When asked to exercise leadership, he replied "I can, but I won't." Faced with an administration content to cozy up to fossil fuel interests, more than 100 students staged a peaceful sat-in outside Washington University's board meeting under the watchful eyes of police, some of whom carried shields and riot gear. When a delegation of students attempted to enter the building to deliver a letter to Washington University's board, they were arrested. All seven were charged with trespassing on their own campus.
The implications of this week of action are both scary and heartening. Novelist Margaret Atwood spoke to the scary, criticizing the administration's response as she received an award at Harvard yesterday: "Any society where arrest is preferable to open dialogue is a scary place." Indeed, university administrators at both Harvard and Washington University appear to be so committed to the fossil fuel industry that they'll arrest their own students for speaking out.
On the hopeful side, the student divestment movement is finding its power. After two years of power-building and by-the-book advocacy, campus climate activists are proving that they have the courage to stand up to their administrators and the fossil fuel industry. Earlier in the school year, students at Harvard, Washington University, and dozens of other campuses worked with Rainforest Action Network to disrupt campus recruitment sessions organized by Bank of America and Citi, two of the largest financiers of the U.S. coal industry. Those actions, and the arrests this week, point to a rising tide of resistance that won't be cowed by police response. A longer, deeper struggle is opening on campuses across the country, and administrators at the more than 300 universities with active divestment campaigns need to know that their chickens are coming home to roost. It's time to divest or expect resistance.
To support the Washington University in St. Louis students arrested this morning, call Chancellor Mark Wrighton at (314) 935-5100.
Tell him universities are for students, not for coal CEOs. Washington University needs to drop Peabody Energy so the school can get back to educating students, not arresting them.

Opponents Offer Fierce Resistance to Tar Sands, Enbridge and Keystone XL
Occupy Oakland: RAN Deplores Violence — But Come On Media, Get It Right
This Week In DC, The Outcry For Climate Solutions Has Become An Uproar
Today I spoke to a woman named Julie, a landowner from Nebraska who is the last person in her county to refuse to sign over her land for the pipeline. She's never been to a protest, much less been arrested. But she told me that she just had to come because the stakes are so high. Likewise Eleanor, a landowner from Texas, who said defiantly: "I am much more worried about the Keystone Pipeline and the damage it could do to our climate than I am about my children being left with a deficit." By some estimates, as many as two-thirds of the folks who have been arrested since the sit-ins began two weeks ago have never participated in anything like this — and yet they gave up their own time and spent their own money to voice their opposition to Keystone XL and tar sands oil. This is what a movement looks like. The movement to stop the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline has become symbolic of our struggle to avert climate catastrophe, and it's breaking through and gaining momentum. Here's how we know that the tide is turning:
- This week has seen the biggest days yet of the "Tar Sands Action" civil disobedience in DC. So far, over 800 people have been arrested in DC (including actress and nature lover Darryl Hannah, who was arrested on Tuesday along with RAN board members Randy Hayes and Jodie Evans). Over 130 were sitting in today.
- Keystone XL is getting a ton of media coverage: It has been a top item on Google News for the past several days, and the issue has been featured in front page articles by The New York Times and The Huffington Post. It has also received great coverage from CNN, ABC, Al Jazeera, Reuters, and more.
- Along with our partners, we've collected hundreds of thousands of signatures on a petition that we'll be delivering to the White House on September 3rd. If you haven't signed and shared it, please do so today.
- In the last few weeks, the tar sands protests have united the leaders of groups as diverse as Greenpeace and the Environmental Defense Fund. A few days ago, the leaders of the top environmental groups in the country all joined together in a letter to the President in which we told him that "there is not an inch of daylight between our policy position on the Keystone XL pipeline, and those of the protesters being arrested daily outside the White House." I have never seen this kind of unity in the climate movement.

Why Going to Jail for Climate Justice Is More Than a Responsibility: A Closer Look at Our Movement's Tactics
Six of us went to jail that day to draw attention to a local injustice. We have put the company on notice and after packing the lobby of City Hall for a hearing on the issue the next day, it is clear that we won't back down. But what is next for our movement? Will we continue to push our tactics and speak LOUDER until we are heard? Or will we allow ourselves to be silenced by the corporate pollution of our politics and the fear of going to jail for speaking the truth? This post is intentionally left open ended for greater discussion. What are the tactics that will allow us to win? We can't raise billions of dollars to influence Capitol Hill, so how do we level the playing field? I think our movement needs to take a close look in the mirror and consider how we respond to a political process mired in inequitable access and influence. So I ask, in the face of all these challenges, how will YOU be most effective?

Individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) of different structural and thus electronic characteristics can be joined to build up three-terminal logic devices. However, today this can only be achieved using highly sophisticated nanomanipulation processes. The direct growth of intrinsic functional CNT elements such as Y-shaped CNTS (YCNTs) and helical CNTs (HCNTs) can be considered as an important alternative. YCNTs already have proven to show rapid and nonlinear transistor action without the need for external gating, while HCNTs could be used as inductive elements offering rapid signal processing. Additionally, HCNTs have shown operational functionality as high sensitivity force and mass sensors and are of great interest for nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). A research group in Spain now reports that sulfur may be used as a highly efficient additive in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes, allowing enhanced selectivity in the synthesis of helical and Y-shaped CNTs.Posted: Sep 29th, 2006
Imagine to catch one, or a few, molecules dissolved in water, lock them up in a cage with a diameter of a few hundred nanometers, and keep them locked for a given length of time. Then bring these containers with the "captive" molecules to places within the solution where you want to have them, and release the captured molecules from their captivity on chemical command. Or simply keep the molecules in the cage "prison" locked up, add a few more different molecules to water, and watch their chemical reaction following movement across the container wall in "solitary" confinement within the containers with the molecules already captured. Such dreams of nanotechnologists have come much closer to reality as a result of a discovery made by a team of researchers, lead by Professor Julius Vancso of the University of Twente, from the MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology collaborating with scientists of the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces in Golm, Germany.Posted: Sep 28th, 2006
Spintronics (short for "spin-based electronics") is an emergent technology which exploits the quantum propensity of electrons to spin as well as making use of their charge state. The spin itself is manifested as a detectable weak magnetic energy state characterized as "spin up" and "spin down". Spin flip length is an important parameter to know for designing spintronics devices. Because in spintronics, electron spin carries the information, it is important to know how far electrons can travel in a device before this spin information is lost. In a discovery that could contribute to the emerging field of spintronics, scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Science, have demonstrated a way to measure the distance an electron travels in nanoscale materials before its spin is reversed due to scattering.Posted: Sep 27th, 2006
The ubiquitous static friction (stiction) and adhesion forces comprise a major obstacle in the manipulation of matter at the nanoscale. In order to realize the potential of nanotubes and nanowires as components in electronic devices or other microsystems, methods for reliable pick-and-place assembly must be established. A major obstacle here is the delicate balance required between the adhesion forces acting between the object to be manipulated, and the surface and the manipulation tool, respectively. A group od Danish and UK researchers found that self-assembled organic nanofibers, which are otherwise totally impossible to remove from any normal surface, can be lifted straight off from a nanotube forest. It means that the notorious stickiness of even the most soft and fragile materials, which immobilizes them and prevent handling, is a problem that now can be solved.Posted: Sep 26th, 2006
Phagocytosis is a cellular phenomena that describes the process in which phagocytes (specialized cells such as macrophages) destroy viruses and foreign particles in blood. Phagocytes are an important part of the immune system. Unfortunately, phagocytes are also a major limitation for the intravenous delivery of polymeric nanoparticles. The use of such nanoparticles to deliver therapeutic agents is currently being studied as a promising method by which drugs can be effectively targeted to specific cells in the body, such as cancerous cells. Researchers at Penn State are trying to trick the body's immune system, and increase the circulation time of nano drug carriers in the blood, with stealth drug nanoparticles that could be fabricated by self-assembling a shell on the surface of a solid drug core. This research could lead to the possibility of long term drug treatment in vivo.Posted: Sep 25th, 2006
Particulate nanocarriers have been praised for their advantageous drug delivery properties in the lung, such as avoidance of macrophage clearance mechanisms and long residence times. However, instilled non-biodegradable polystyrene nanospheres with small diameters and thus large surface areas have been shown to induce pulmonary inflammation. New evidence suggests that biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles designed for pulmonary drug delivery may not induce the same inflammatory response as non-biodegradable polystyrene particles of comparable size.Posted: Sep 22nd, 2006
Photonic crystals are attractive optical materials for controlling and manipulating the flow of light. They can be engineered to produce a variety of optical filtering functions. The growing efforts of physicists and materials scientists to fabricate photonic (nano)crystals were motivated mainly by the potential application of these materials in optical computing, the manufacturing of more efficient lasers, and other exciting new phenomena, like those arising from the application of disturbances such as shock waves. The manufacturing of large-area photonic crystals operating in the visible spectrum is still a challenging and expensive task, given present-day laboratory techniques. However, as with so many other materials, nature has already found a solution. Because they are ready made, common in nature, and because they show a very high complexity, biological photonic-crystal structures will be an essential tool for building a useful knowledge of inhomogeneous optical media.Posted: Sep 21st, 2006
In the field of Nanotechnology, where inherent risks are the subject of hot debate, developments within the nascent science of biomolecular motors is hailed by scientists to be relatively benign to humans and possibly beneficial to the environment (even for applications within the military). Biomolecular motors are currently an area of fundamental research, with working applications years in the future. Biological organisms on the micro and nano scales have always used the mechanism of converting ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate - the universal fuel molecule that powers all cells) into mechanical energy. Therefore an existence proof that this concept could fare very well has existed for millennia. Today's question is: "how to manufacture engineering devices powered by ATP?"Posted: Sep 20th, 2006

How to Get Your Husband to Eat More Veggies (also, the story of the Blendtec)
Erin | Apr 17, 2012 | Comments 6
I have waxed philosophic about how awesome my husband is on multiple occasions.
He is truly an incredible individual and the perfect partner for me. Now, neither of us are perfect, but we are perfect partners.
Having said that, he does not eat nearly enough vegetables. Recently, a colleague of his was telling him that he started juicing. He offered Jeff a glass of juice, which he actually drank. When I heard about this, I jumped on it.
"You mean you'll actually drink that?!?!" Never in a million years had I thought he would consider drinking a green smoothie or juice. Bingo, I thought. I can fit a whole day's worth of veggies in a smoothie. Plus, I'd been itching for an excuse to buy a Blendtec for a year.
I had been looking over the high powered blenders, the Vitamixes, the Blendtec, OmniBlend etc, and had decided a while back that I wanted a Blendtec. (Lexie's Kitchen has posted a great overview and comparison, if you need a place to start.) The online shopping fest began, and I was actually very fortunate to find a new one for a very reasonable price on ebay.
We're doing a green smoothie every weekday now. Sometimes on weekends, but not nearly as consistently. I've also used the Blendtec to make cookie, muffin, and quick bread batters, protein shakes, all kinds of stuff. It really is versatile and super easy to clean. I'm happy with the purchase for sure. More happy, though, that I am finally able to get the nutrition from veggies into my husband on a regular basis. I like him and I'd like to keep him around for a while
I could have tried to make the smoothie look all nice, in a glass, with a garnish or something but let's be honest. You're not here for the food photography. This is how we roll in the GFF household. BlenderBottle for the win. Those things are genius.
This is not a revolutionary green smoothie recipe, it's pretty basic. However, it packs in a lot of nutrition, a lot of greens, and it's tasty. It's a winner in our house. I've pinned a bunch of green smoothie recipes on my cleverly named "Green Smoothie/Juice stuff" board on Pinterest, so feel free to take a look and see what tickles your fancy. There are a ton of great ideas out there.
The players:
- 8 oz cold filtered water
- 2 big handfuls of baby spinach (maybe 3)
- juice of half a lemon
- one apple, cored
- half a medium cucumber

The game:
- Chop your apple and veg into big chunks. Add to blender. Blend. Serve (this is 2 servings for us-one for each of us). Drink. Feel virtuous and healthy. Be happy that there's several servings of veggies in that one glass (or shaker bottle.)

I have a Blendtec as well, but I really need to experiment with it more. I usually use it for smoothies, but I also have used it to grind oats and quinoa for flour when I've been out, and to grind flaxseed as it is cheaper in its whole form.
This is great! Who doesn't want to fill their loved ones with healthy fare?! I'm also loving your short review on the Blendtec… might have to buy one of those soon! Keep up the veggie packing
So far I have only gotten my husband to drink two green smoothies. I haven't given up yet though. He drinks a V-8 each day, which is full of sodium, but he is not one to get much salt elsewhere so I don't fet about it. Still … if he can drink V-8, there's hope he'll one day drink green smoothies with me! Congrats on your new Blendtec, Erin! I see lots of experimenting in the future.

15 graves damaged after crash in Gonzales cemetary
Related Story
GONZALES - Fifteen graves at Cornerview Cemetery were damaged after a car lost control and crashed into it.
The first funeral at the cemetery was in 1864. Now some with family members buried there want more done to protect their plots.
"You'd think after you put somebody in the ground that would be their final resting place and nothing should disturb them," said Albert Bertholot, who has family buried in the cemetery, "but apparently that wasn't the case."
The great-grandmother of Berthelot's wife is buried at the cemetery. He says there should be a barrier between the cemetery and Highway 429, where it is located.
"You're going to need some kind of a guardrail," he said. "Something that's gonna stop the traffic from going through one side of the road coming through here."
Saint Teresa of Avila Church runs the cemetery. Officials there told News 2 they have no plans to put up any barriers because they don't see how that could prevent another accident like this one. The church says an out-of-control driver would probably go right through a fence, and a guardrail could seriously injure somebody if they hit it.
Sources say the driver in Saturday's crash was not seriously injured.

LAS VEGAS (AP) - A defense attorney says two men pleaded not guilty to felony attempted murder and battery with a weapon charges in the stabbing of a tourist in a Las Vegas Strip hotel elevator.
Monti Jodana Levy, attorney for Carlos Heredia, said a judge on Tuesday scheduled trial May 20 for her client and co-defendant Trent Wilcox.
The 2 a.m. Feb. 16 incident left California tourist Eric Miller wounded at The Hotel at Mandalay Bay.
Video shows Miller and his wife, Diane Androvich, arguing in the elevator with Wilcox and Heredia before Heredia stabs Miller.
Wilcox also received stab wounds as he held Miller from behind.
Heredia is 23. Wilcox is 25. They're being held at the Clark County jail.
If they're convicted, each could face five to 55 years in prison.

DeKalb Medical Center
Revenue Cycle Department, Contracting and Process Improvement
The Revenue Cycle Department manages the strategic issues of revenue management for the DeKalb Regional Healthcare System. This includes negotiating payer (insurance companies) contracts and monitoring their performance. The complexities of healthcare payment processes are unimaginable to most and healthcare organizations continually strive to streamline the billing and payment process, reduce overhead, and increase opportunities to better serve patients.
DeKalb Medical Center has involved the Health Systems Institute (HSI) in supporting various special projects for several years. Currently, new challenges are being faced in providing "transparency" to the public relating to expected pricing of the most common care episodes. To aid in this effort, HSI students have developed systems to project pricing for prospective patients who request information prior to their service at the Medical Center.
About DeKalb Medical Center
Serving the Atlanta community since 1961, DeKalb Medical Center is a not-for-profit hospital system that includes the 451-bed DeKalb Medical Center on North Decatur Road in Decatur, the 76-bed DeKalb Medical Center at Decatur in downtown Decatur and the 100-bed DeKalb Medical Center at Hillandale in Lithonia.

Photo gallery: Socorro graduation
EL PASO -- When the seniors of the Socorro High School baseball team decided to forego their graduation ceremony last month for the playoffs, little did they know they'd gambled on making history.
But that's exactly what 15 Socorro seniors did as they traded the once-in-a-lifetime milestone of high school graduation for the top prize of the Class 5A state baseball championship this season.
Socorro defeated Lufkin, 12-7, in the championship game on Saturday in Round Rock.
Seniors on the team missed their May 23 high school graduation while playing in the regional quarterfinals in Midland.
So the players received their diplomas from the Socorro ISD board of trustees at the District Service Center in a later-than-usual graduation ceremony on Tuesday -- along with accolades and praise from lawmakers, educators, coaches and fans thrilled with the Bulldogs' win last weekend.
"These individuals, these student-athletes, scholar-athletes, deserve a commencement and graduation," Socorro ISD superintendent Xavier De La Torre said at the ceremony. "Be proud of these accomplishments, for tomorrow begins a new chapter."
Tomorrow is coming quickly for the Bulldogs, who finished the season 31-4 and ranked in the top 10 nationally.
Pitcher Bobby Mares is grappling with a decision to either play for Cisco Junior College or the University of New Mexico next semester. Cory Falvey, the state tournament's Most Valuable Player, plans to play at Cisco Junior College.
"We did expect to win it. You can't overlook things. You've got to take it a game at a time," Falvey said after graduating. "Our mental preps for the game were outstanding. We were focused. We were hungry, but we were ready to play at the same time."
The senior Bulldogs this year aren't the first to let the graduation ceremony take a back seat to the baseball playoffs. In 1998, five Socorro seniors skipped their graduation ceremony to play in the regional playoffs in Midland.
Tuesday's ceremony was replete with praise for the Bulldogs. They took home honors from state Sen. Eliot Shapleigh, state Rep. Chente Quintanilla and County Commissioner Willie Gandara Jr., who thanked the team "for bringing back pride to the valley."
The team also once again enjoyed throngs of supporters, who packed the District Service Center and waved flags and banners as senior members of the team made their walk across the stage.
Like other graduations, Tuesday's commencement marked a symbolic shift for student-athletes, who now are casting an eye toward their futures as they ponder careers and the prospect of playing college ball.
All the more reason for members of the team to savor their historic win, head coach Chris Forbes said.
"I want the kids to understand the impact that this has on El Paso, and have fun with it," he said. "So right now, we just want to enjoy this. This is quite an experience. It's an experience of a lifetime."

Jhpiego initially began work in Ethiopia in 2003 with funding support from the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief through the CDC. More recently, from 2010 to 2013, with funding from UNICEF, Jhpiego established standardized trainers and training sites across the country in basic emergency obstetric and newborn care. Additionally, from 2011 to 2014, under the Maternal and Child Health Integrated Program (MCHIP), funded by USAID, Jhpiego collaborated with Save the Children and the Johns Hopkins Institute for International Programs to reduce maternal mortality and morbidity by increasing the use of high-impact maternal and newborn interventions.
Jhpiego continues to expand its partnerships in Ethiopia to build the capacity of local institutions, including the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH) and the Federal HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control Office, to respond to the country's health needs. Jhpiego currently works with a diverse funding base to support the FMOH and other partners to address the challenges of maternal and newborn mortality, human resources for health development and HIV/AIDS through the following programs:
- The USAID-funded Strengthening Human Resources for Health project, designed to improve health outcomes in Ethiopia by strengthening the human resources management system to improve and monitor the quality of education, deployment and continued professional development of health care providers.
- The Maternal and Child Survival Program, also funded by USAID, which seeks to reduce maternal, child, infant and neonatal mortality and morbidity by increasing facility-based births with skilled birth attendance and by strengthening the provision of high-quality basic essential and emergency obstetric and newborn care.
- The CDC-funded, Columbia University-led grant, Technical Assistance for the Transition of Comprehensive HIV/AIDS Programs and Medical Education to Ethiopia, under which Jhpiego provides technical support in pre-service education and the provision of voluntary medical male circumcision services.
- The Empowering a New Generation to Improve Nutrition and Economic Opportunities Project, funded by USAID and led by Save the Children, under which Jhpiego works with universities to strengthen pre-service education in nutrition.
