Inspired by stories shared by birth parents, adoptive parents, and adult adoptees, PPL explores the dark side of adoption, and the consequences illegal and unethical actions have on future family-life and the well-being of those affected by adoption.
Too many children are placed for the benefit of agencies and based on the demands of prospective adoptive parents.
Too many children are placed in inappropriate homes because the business interests of adoption agencies have higher priority than the safety of children.
PPL documents and archives cases where the child placement system did not work in the best interest of the child and we offer a platform for those who want to express their thoughts and feelings about the dark side of child adoption.
Belus says transition difficult for victims
By Sarah Rafique
Christine Dodson shook her daughter awake.
She told the 11-year-old she had to watch the other kids.
Her youngest brother was not breathing.
"I came downstairs (and) in the foyer on the ground, my step-dad was doing CPR on him and didn't wait for an ambulance," said Kate Belus, 31, who now lives in Lubbock. "They packed up and went straight to the hospital."
A combination of trying to "beat the demon" out of him and lack of nourishment led to gangrene and, after several attempts of resuscitation, Belus' adopted brother fell into a coma. While at Brackenridge Children's Hospital in Austin, doctors conducted skin grafts to help his skin repair. They waited for the 5-year-old boy to wake.
It took several months.
Belus' mom and step-dad, Richard Dodson, were tried in 1996 for the abuse they caused him. They were never charged for the abuse Belus said she and her other siblings endured.
The Dodsons are serving 45-year sentences each.
Investigating child abuse
By Ted Sherman
Federal prosecutors say they intend to retry an Army major and his wife charged with abusing their children, after a judge halted the proceedings yesterday over the inadvertent disclosure that the couple's two-year-old son had died while in their care.
No timetable has been set yet for a new trial for Maj. John Jackson and his wife Carolyn, who are charged with endangerment and assault for abusing three of their six children, while stationed at Picatinny Arsenal in Morris County.
A conference on the matter is expected to be held after Thanksgiving.
A mistrial in the high-profile was declared yesterday morning by U.S. District Judge Katharine S. Hayden, a day after one of the prosecutors referred to the dead child, despite orders from the judge to keep the death from jurors because it would be prejudicial to the Jacksons.
The couple, who have been accused of hurting the child, have not been charged with his death, which was ruled by a medical examiner to be from "natural causes."
Prevalence of child abuse in Lubbock County has consistently been about twice the state's average
Kate Belus didn't run from the beatings that lasted until the wooden dowels broke.
She didn't run for food so she could finally eat for the day.
She didn't run toward help.
She was simply running — for hours — in circles outside her two-story home in Round Rock because she was scared of what would happen if she didn't.
"We had a figure-8 track in the backyard between two big trees and we had a triangular track in the front yard between three trees," said Belus, 31, who now lives in Lubbock after graduating from Texas Tech. "We literally would run around them for hours on end; that's hard after you just took a beating to your feet."
Belus, who was homeschooled and spent all day with her parents, didn't complain about the punishments, which sometimes led to broken toes hidden beneath her shoes and invisible to strangers.
She never talked back.
People who knew the accused killers of a 3-year-old girl had seen the couple spanking and bruising their children, according to redacted police reports released Friday.
Alberto Garcia, 31, and Carla Garcia, 30, fled their southwest Bakersfield home in 2010 before police found Serenity Julia Gandara dead and her 4-year-old brother, Isaiah, abandoned there.
The Garcias were arrested in Mexico in February 2012 and had been awaiting extradition until last month.
In 2010, neighbors and relatives told police they had seen Serenity and Isaiah with apparent signs of abuse, according to the new reports.
Some claimed the children were spanked or had their hands restrained if and when they cried.
Carla Garcia is charged with first-degree murder and three counts of willful cruelty to a child, and Alberto Garcia is charged with first-degree murder and two counts of willful cruelty to a child. Both are being held in jail without bail.

The child abuse trial of an Army major and his wife came to an abrupt end this morning, a day after a prosecutor mistakenly disclosed to jurors that an adopted two-year-old son of the couple had died in their care.
U.S. District Judge Katharine S. Hayden, who had ordered that the child's death be kept from the jury because it would be prejudicial, declared a mistrial in the high profile proceedings against Carolyn and John Jackson.
"I'm firmly convinced that the right to a fair trail has slipped away," said Hayden.
She said while the mistake was not malicious or intentional, it was unfair to the defendants to proceed, with the jury now knowing that one of their children had died.
"It begs imagination and logic to believe the jurors will disregard what they know and what they learned," she said—that their son died while in their custody.
By Thomas Zambito
Newark - A federal judge cut off testimony in the child abuse trial of Army Major John Jackson and his wife and sent jurors home today after a prosecutor slipped and suggested that one of the couple's three adopted children had died.
Defense attorneys for the Jacksons immediately demanded a mistrial out of earshot of jurors who, because of a pre-trial ruling, were not supposed to learn of the youngster's death in 2008 before he'd turned three.
U.S. District Court Judge Katharine Hayden said she will rule Friday morning on whether to declare a mistrial several weeks into the government's case against John and Carolyn Jackson.
The Jacksons are facing child endangerment and assault charges for abusing and neglecting three of their adopted children through harsh discipline that included feeding them red hot pepper flakes and pouring hot sauce into their mouths.
The couple was living at Picatinny Arsenal in Morris County with their three biological children and three adopted children when some of the abuse is alleged to have occurred. They had previously lived in Oklahoma.
By Aidan O'Shea
When an Ohio couple began adopting high-risk foster children, social services flagged them as a "go-to family." That couple's abuse of those children could have been stopped.
Witnesses at the criminal trial of Michael and Sharen Gravelle for the abuse of their 11 foster children testified that the Gravelles had hosed their children off outside in winter, that they had shoved children's heads into the toilet and flushed, and that they had beaten children with sticks and boards. Most notoriously, the Gravelles made some of their children sleep in wood and wire enclosures. These cages, the Gravelles argued, were used to protect the children from themselves.

Rana Cooper leaves district court Thursday followed by her husband, Richard, at right, after they faced charges in the alleged abuse of their daughter.
SLOVAN – A Cross Creek Township man was arrested Thursday on allegations he failed to protect his daughter from what prosecutors claim was horrific abuse she suffered over four years from her mother.
District Judge Gary Halvelka arraigned Richard Allen Cooper, 51, on a charge of endangering the welfare of children immediately after he ordered charges filed against the man's wife, Rana, 46, to Washington County Court.
"I don't think this child understood how horrific these things were," said Traci McDonald, an assistant Washington County district attorney assigned to the case. "She thought it was discipline."
Rana Cooper, of 159 Cooke Road, is charged by state police with simple assault, reckless endangerment and endangering the welfare of children, and she is free on $100,000 unsecured bond. Richard Cooper, of the same address, is free on $10,000 unsecured bond.

A Pennsylvania mother will stand trial on abuse charges after she allegedly forced her daughter to eat cat litter and tried to sew her mouth shut.
Rana Cooper, 46, told reporters that she is "a very good mother" after she left Thursday's preliminary hearing.
The girl, now 16 years old, said she was abused because her mother considered her "embarrassing to the family," which is a large group with seven sons.
"I was not allowed to go anywhere with the family," she said.
The girl testified that she suffered from abuse for several years; in one instance, her mother tried to sew the girl's mouth shut but stopped at one jab of the needle. She also testified that her mother would choke her until she blacked out, bit her on the nose, watched as she was attacked by a Rottweiler and held her head underwater in the sink.
"I don't think this child understood how horrific these things were," assistant district attorney for Washington County Traci McDonald said. "She thought it was discipline."
By Janice Crompton / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
A Washington County man was arraigned Friday on charges that he failed to intervene when his wife beat and assaulted their adopted daughter, disguising abuse as discipline and forcing her to eat cat litter and toilet residue as punishment.
Richard Cooper, 51, of Cross Creek appeared before District Judge Gary Havelka on charges of endangering the welfare of a child. He was released on $10,000 bond.
During the same time, his wife, Rana Cooper, appeared before Judge Havelka, and was held for court on charges that she tried to gouge out her daughter's eyes and attempted to sew the child's mouth shut. Police also have accused her of choking the girl until she blacked out and sitting on her so she couldn't breathe.
Ms. Cooper, 46, also of Cross Creek, was charged with aggravated assault, endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, and reckless endangerment. She was released on $100,000 bond. Her trial date has not yet been set.
The now-16-year-old girl had been abused for at least the past four years, police said. She was adopted at the age of 7 or 8.
PARIS TOWNSHIP - The adoptive parents of several mentally and physically disabled youths were arrested on warrants requested after a sheriff's deputy discovered they kept their legally blind and non-verbal son locked in a caged bed.
Timothy Tolin, 66, and Karen "Sue" Tolin, 65, were arraigned Tuesday in Huron County District Court on charges of unlawful imprisonment, a 15-year felony charge, and vulnerable adult abuse-third degree, a high-court two-year misdemeanor. The Tolins were each released on a bond of $5,000, which was set by Huron County District Judge David Herrington.
The 19-year-old man was discovered Oct. 20 by Huron County Sheriff's Deputy Steve Bismack, who had responded to a civil dispute at the Tolin home, located at 3700 Minden Road.
After speaking with the parties involved, Bismack was granted permission to enter one of the bedrooms in the home, where he found the alleged victim.
PARIS TOWNSHIP, MI — A husband and wife face a felony charge after their adopted 19-year-old son was found inside a cage in "extremely unsanitary" conditions, Huron County Sheriff Kelly Hanson reports.
Karen S. Tolin, 65, and Timothy E. Tolin, 66, occupants of the house where their adopted 19-year-old son was found, were arraigned in Huron County District Court Tuesday, Oct. 28.
Each is charged with a single count of unlawful imprisonment, a 15-year felony, and third-degree vulnerable adult abuse, a high court 2-year misdemeanor.
Both are free on $5,000 or 10 percent bonds, court officials said.
Police responded to investigate a civil dispute about 4 p.m. Monday, Oct. 20, to a home at 3700 Minden Road south of Priemer, when they discovered the mentally challenged male teen in a caged bed with the door chained shut, the Huron County Sheriff's Department said in a prepared statement.
"The odor was very noticeable as the deputy began to climb the stairs," Hanson said.

HARTFORD — All criminal charges against George Harasz, a former Glastonbury man who was accused of sexually assaulting boys that he and his former husband adopted through the state Department of Children and Families, were dismissed Tuesday at Superior Court.
Harasz's former husband, Douglas Wirth, was found not guilty after a trial last month.
Prosecutor Anthony Bochicchio told Judge Joan K. Alexander on Tuesday that the 8-year-old boy whose allegations of sexual assault against Harasz would have been the subject of his trial was not capable of testifying.
Bochicchio said that the boy, along with his DCF social worker and court-appointed guardian, attended a preparation session Friday at the courthouse in Hartford. The boy became physically and emotionally overwhelmed, and shut down, when questioned about the abuse that he said he had endured.
"All agreed that it would be in the best interest of the complainant not to testify," Bochicchio said, adding that he could not ethically bring the case to trial.
The family of 3-year-old Serenity Julia Gandara wondered if her foster parents -- her alleged killers -- would ever see trial, but the couple finally made their first Kern County court appearance Tuesday.
Alberto Garcia, 31, and Carla Garcia, 30, are accused of killing Serenity and abandoning her 4-year-old brother Isaiah Gandara in their southwest Bakersfield home in July 2010.
The Garcias then fled to Mexico, taking their two biological children and Carla Garcia's son from a previous relationship with them. The couple was apprehended in February 2012, and after exhausting extradition appeals, booked Friday into the Kern County Jail.
"I didn't think they would find (them)," Serenity's paternal grandmother Renee Maese said outside of court Tuesday. "I thank God every day they found them."
During the brief appearance, the Garcias wore jail uniforms and were handcuffed.
Kern County Superior Court Judge H.A. "Skip" Staley agreed to postpone their court appearance until 3 p.m. Monday.

PARIS TOWNSHIP, MI — Two adults were arraigned on charges of unlawful imprisonment and abuse after police found a 19-year-old "mentally disabled" man in a cage that was chained shut inside a Huron County bedroom.
Karen S. Tolin, 65, and Timothy E. Tolin, 66, both occupants of the house where the teen was found, were arraigned in Huron County District Court Tuesday, Oct. 28. Each is charged with a single count of unlawful imprisonment, a 15-year felony, and third-degree vulnerable adult abuse, a high court 2-year misdemeanor.
The two suspects were arrested on the charges authorized by Huron County Prosecutor Tim Rutkowski.

Many car owners consider their cars as veritable extensions of themselves. Hence, if you look at their cars, you will readily get a glimpse of their characters, tastes, and traits. For this reason, some cars are fashionably spruced-up to depict the styles and preferences of their owners. Many car owners enhance the appearance of their cars using car wraps, and like men's clothing, the car wraps can be readily removed and replaced. Likewise, owners have the option of partially or fully car wrapping their cars, though most vehicle owners prefer to partially car wrap their vehicles due to budgetary reasons.
Most companies that indulge in car wrapping industry have off-the-shelf designs out of which their prospective clients can choose from. Moreover, most car wrap companies offer alternative or customized designs to cater to the varying needs of their clients, albeit at a higher cost. These companies offer car wrapping services not only to cater to the whims and fancies of the owners, but also to preserve the vehicle's paint integrity. Likewise, car wrap is increasingly utilized nowadays as a popular medium of advertisement. Hence, it is not unusual to see buses and cars bedecked with advertising car wraps.
Car Wrap Materials and the Advantages of their Use
The vinyl sticker or film is the primary material used in car wrapping. This material is pliable and adheres to any smooth surface. Moreover, there are several types of stickers or films that you can use in car wrapping. In fact, there are printable and unprintable vinyl stickers, and the unprintable kind is similarly used in making machine-cut decals.
As a car owner, you can readily use stickers to sparingly cover some specific parts of your vehicle, or you can wrap the vehicle's whole body using a variety of vinyl stickers or films. Aside from the plain colored sticker, the printable stickers or films are the most favored car-wrapping materials for decorative or advertisement purposes. Furthermore, there are basically different kinds of printable stickers such as the reflective stickers, the perforated film, and the most common one—the plain printable films. Moreover, all printable films come in a wide variety of colors from which you can choose.
Another kind of material used for car wrapping is the carbon fiber film which is very similar to a very thick vinyl sticker with textured surface. The carbon fiber film is commonly used to wrap the engine bonnet or hood, and on some occasions, the vehicle's roof, for this material has inherent heat-absorbing property.
Depending on the vinyl film quality and the printer's ink, the car wrap may last from one to three years. Unprintable vinyl stickers, on the other hand, usually last longer than the printable film as the weather may easily fade the printed image faster than the rest of the vinyl material. For this reason, it is crucial to have basic knowledge about car wrapping materials so that you can choose the best car wraps for your vehicle.
Despite the limited durability of the vinyl sticker, it can still be very cost-effective as a means of protecting and preserving the paint works of your cars. The vinyl sticker can be easily removed and replaced in just a couple of hours as compared to the painting process which requires considerable amount of time and man-power. Moreover, car wrap could readily protect your vehicle from the wear and tear process.

For some odd reason Microsoft has made it quite the task to procure a legitimate ISO image of Windows 7. You would think they would have an easy to find place on their website for ISO images, because remember you really cannot take advantage of these ISO images unless you have a proper legal key. So many people end up losing the disc or ISO they previously had making it quite the challenge to get a replacement.

November figures provided by market researcher StatCounter reveal that while the adoption of Windows 8.1 and Windows 8 have increased a little bit in the last 30 days, Windows 7 is still on top as its market share has reached a record 55.75 percent. That means that more than 1 in 2 computers are now powered by Windows 7.

Windows 7 is clearly the number 1 operating system in the world right now and I do not see that changing anytime soon, especially with people choosing Windows 7 over the newly released Windows 8. Even though Windows 7 is the number 1 choice for 47.5 percent of IT workers Forrester analyst J.P. Gownder says that it's yet to reach the "ubiquity" of Windows XP in the enterprise market.

Windows 8, it seems like we have been hearing a lot about it over the past couple of months. Recently Microsoft has released the consumer preview, which is free to download so you can try out the new operating system before it ships. If you have ever installed any Windows operating system from a CD or DVD you know it can be very time consuming. Why not speed up the process by installing the operating system using a USB flash drive. In this article we will show you how to take the Window 8 ISO and put it on a flash drive for fast and easy installation.

Windows 7, I'm sure you have heard of it by now. Already Microsoft has a new operating system, hopefully this one won't be a disaster like Vista was. If you installed Vista or even later versions of XP from a DVD you know that it was very time consuming. Why not speed up the process by using a flash drive to install Windows 7. Windows 7 is currently in beta and Microsoft is offering it free to anyone to try out until August. In this article we will show you how to take the Windows 7 ISO and put it on a USB flash drive for fast and easy installation.

Posted on Feb 05, 11:47AM | IBNS
Mumbai, Feb 5 : Actor-Producer Abhishek Bachchan turned 37 years of age on Tuesday.
The junior Bachchan is likely to keep his birthday celebrations low key, said reports.
The actor, who always prefers to work on his birthdays, is predictably not taking a break from shooting.
He is also not in a celebratory mood because one of his closest friends, Sikander (Kirron Kher's son), lost his biological father, Gautam Berry, a few days ago.
Born to actors Jaya and Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek debuted in Bollywood with the film 'Refugee' in 2000, which won him critical acclaim, although the film failed to succeed at the box-office.
The actor had several unsuccessful films after his first venture including 'Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke' (2000), 'Tera Jadoo Chal Gaya' (2000), 'Bas Itna Sa Khwaab Hai' (2001), 'Om Jai Jagdish' (2002), and 'Desh' (2002).

- How to Measure:
- Measure from the tip of your middle finger straight down to the base of your palm (where it meets your wrist.) This will give you a "best guess" of your glove size. Personal fit preference and hand shape differ from person to person, so if you have a particularly wide or narrow hand, you may want to size up or down accordingly.

if the glove don't fit, you must

size up. These fit a little small but are great summer glove because they are light and comfortable. I would buy again.

Good (but not great) gloves
They are decent gloves with thick, firm padding that are good for longer rides. I like the snug fit and and the stitching is solid.
Two drawbacks:
(1) The velcro strap isn't that great and has to be reapplied sometimes.
(2) There is no reflective component so if your ride is going to spill into the lower light hours than maybe go with something else.
Ryan P.
Good with a small flaw
- Familiarity:I've used it several times
The gloves overall have been great. They fit well and have just enough padding to do the job without being bulky.
My one complaint is that each time I've worn them (had them a week), the excess black dye in the palms has stained my palms and my white bar tape. (Florida riding makes for some sweaty rides.) I've tried rinsing them with water and squeezing them to ring out some dye, and it seems to be less severe than the first couple rides. It washes off my hands easily, but my bar tape is ruined.

- Familiarity:I've used it several times
Got the white. Ordered the small and they fit really good. Like the material they are made of and like the way they look. My hand still gets a numb somewhat but I ride further before that happens that I could with my old gloves. I will probably buy my next pair with a little more padding. Short trips of an hour are fine with these gloves.

High Doses and Easy to Digest

I started taking about 500mg of magnesium daily a few years back. It was trial and error to find a preparation of larger doses of magnesium that did not cause diarrhea. Albion lab chelated minerals are the best I've found for magnesium and calcium in terms of absorption with no side effects. I highly recommend these if the doses are what you're looking for.

Bluebonnet Iron Free Chelated Multi Minerals is an excellent product. It has a good ratio of calc/mag/vit D and it is of better quality and absorbable calc/mag. It also contains many minerals that are essential for good health. Many of my clients are uneasy about taking so many vitamins so this is a good choice because it cuts down on the quantity of vitamins to be taken.
Best I have taken.

+ Contains copper + All minerals + Vitamin D3 + Decent amounts - Low amount of selenium Suggestions for bluebonnet * Maybe a little more copper * A little bit less calcium there is plenty of it in foods * Remove the magnesium oxide makes no sense For the rest one of the best multi minerals you can buy. I recommend to combine with concentrace trace minerals. Gives you a little bit extra magnesium (wich is good with the high amount of calcium in our diet) and a the extra trace minerals. For men/older people. Taking no iron at all is a little bit to optimistic since iron is still very important. So buy the iron containing version as well and swallow every day one with iron and one without iron. For people who want to save a little bit of money taking 3 caplets every 2 days. Will also give you decent amounts of minerals.
very good product

I bought this one with 2 more products, and ever since i started taking them i feel i have more energy and don't ger sleepy in the afternoons. I like it because the minerals are chelated which is from what i've read the best form for the body to absorb.

I absolutely LOVE lemons right now! I've been wanting lemon juice with everything and every time I go out to eat with my sister or hubby I order a plate full of lemon slices to munch on before and after my meal. The other day my sister brought home a bunch of fresh, homegrown lemons, and I've eaten 2 today! They're so delicious if you eat them while also drinking a cup of decaf tea!
Craving lemons!

I crave them, too. Plain with salt. Bad for us, though. :(
I know Elliana can fly!!
"You know what, Stewie? If you don't like it, go on the internet & complain!" ~ Brian Griffin
I read that it's not that bad actually. Lemons are loaded with vitamins and they turn alkaline as soon as they enter your body instead of acidic.

be careful when eating lemons. The acid can really ruin the enamel on ur teeth. When I was pregnant I ate lemons for like 2 months and ended up having to go to the dentist to get my 3 front teeth resin finishes....sucked!
Yesssss lemons and salt lol
Proud mommy of Renzo - 09/2003!! and Isabella born- April 28, 2010!!
OMG... haha thats all I wanted for the first half of my pregnancy... haha And yes please go out and get you some good tooth paste... it will really really help you !!! I would go through bags and bags of sunflower seeds (because of the salt ) and about 5 lemons a day!
Wife to Marine Hubby John-06 , Mother to Madalyn-09Loving the Wilder life!!! Sorry for typos and I don't always check back on what I write so Msg me..
oh yes. i have been craving lemon so much its not even funny. i went out and was craving some so sour, i wanted a margarita, virgin of course, but i dont think they make that. but any who i was very upset so i asked if the waiter can just give me some juice and squeeze lemon and salt around the edge of the cup. lol
I am watching how much I eat them because I know they can wear down the enamel on my teeth. I drink lots of water while eating them to wash down the juice as quick as possible and I brush my teeth after too!
I just love the lemons SO much!!!

In Hollywood, summer starts in May, or even earlier ... give it a few more years and there'll be an Avengers tie-in movie ringing in the season in early February. This weekend's "summer" blockbuster is Star Trek Into Darkness, directed by J. J. Abrams, who was recently tapped to helm at least the first film in the "Star Wars sequel trilogy." Lotta stars in J.J.'s eyes these days. At least he's having fun with it so far (my review of Darkness after the jump).
Also this week: he'll soon be playing the villain in Man of Steel, speaking of summer blockbusters, but Michael Shannon first appears as a based-on-truth hitman in the very fine Iceman, reviewed here by Dennis Harvey. Also of interest, the first Himalayan Film Festival is now underway in various Bay Area theaters; I take a look at the doc-heavy line-up here.

Nope Im not, Perhaps cross training is helping, but more then likely I have just learned better about how my body responds.:rolleyes:
Thank you both, its been a long road. Fortunately the fitness seems to return quickly.

Two things come to mind for me. First is pacing, riding within your ability. Second is eating and hydrating on the bike. If you do those two things you will be amazed at how far you can ride. If your...
Ive ridden Hwy 9 over a hundred times as it is close to home and a great ride. Ive ridden at 5 pm on weekdays and 7am on weekends. The problems are the same at any time. Its a few who drive faster...

I agree they look pretty equal. That said I say go with what is most comfortable for you to ride. If thats equal then Id buy from the shop that you prefer.
Finally got to ride the bike again. I lost track but I think its been 6 or 7 weeks and a few days. I rode 14 miles including about 750ft of climbing. Its safe to say Ive lost everything I had gained....
We(Los Gatos) used to have a saturday training ride, its sense fallen by the way side. Hopefully we can pick it back up this season. It was a much faster ride, more of a race simulation. We also do a...
Personally Id go with the TCR. Better components and build. If your comfortable on both bikes Id go with the more aggressive one, it will handle better as well.
Bummer. Thats a long drive and alot of preperation time to have to drop out. Stuff happens though.
anyone know what happened to Ygduf? I saw his name on the results but no times.
All of em of course.
I must be doing something wrong.
I have the Zipp 404's and the barrel adjusters work fine.
Yeah Ive heard it in other sports. Ive always believed it was just a status thing.
Im guessing you must really like the Scott. I was real close to getting one of these, still might happen.
Yeah I dont know. I use Esoles mostly for arch support, and they are pretty hard(more then the original). Since the shoe is pretty snug already I am thinkin the sole would already be compressed.
Your words-You're giving up stiffness in favor of comfort when you put in cushy insoles, which I think defeats the purpose of those fancy carbon soles.
You are not giving up stiffness at all,...
Get the wheels, you''ll be glad ya did. Not sayin they will make ya faster, but the ride will be better. I bought a set of ksyruim Elites for under $500, but they claim 1550gr. That said get the...
How in a insert gonna make the base of the shoe less stiff? My carbon soles are exactly the same stiffness with or without the footbed.
Nice bike. Id suggest a zero set back post. Looks like the seat is slammed forward.

Best nai polish I've tried. I have used pretty much every brand of nail polish from the cheapo N.Y.C. to O.P.I. I work in retail so I am constantly hitting my nails on stuff and this stuff would last more than a week.. I just redo my polish every week because I keep my nails extremely short. Last week I did my nails using the colour "hot for chocolate" and didn't have time to apply a top coat and it still lasted the full week. Incredible nail polish for an incredible price!
UPDATE...I found with this polish while the staying power is amazing however after about 1 or 2 times of applying it it bubbles a lot. I've now found a new HG...China Glaze polishes...they never bubble on me and the staying power is almost as good as Revlon.

So I have an off and on again love affair with nail polish. I recently went through a terrible mood swing and threw them all away. What was I thinking??? But Sunday I saw CVS had a sale of buy one for 3.99 and get 3 cvs bucks. Awesome! So I bought plum seduction and fell in love with the quality of this nail polish. So then later that day I went back using my 3 cvs dollars and only paid .99 cents (plus tax) and guess what I got 3 cvs dollars again. So the limit is six and I'll definately use that up! Heck,I might make my fiance get a card! lol The point is I love this nail polish. It has a good quality brush and the color is very pigmented. This is such a great deal :))

honestly, i can't go wrong with revlon's nail color. it's always been so smooth and pigmented and never had any issues. it's cheap, doesn't chip too bad with a good base and top coat. dries fast and isn't one of those nail colors that will 'dry' but still be able to get dents and scratches for hours afterwards.
i want to get more colors!

I like Revlon nail polishes a lot, but NOT their frosty/metallic nail polish shades, hence the 4 not 5 lippies. The regular plain colors with none of that are really nice. A little on the thin side, but with that, they glide on nicely, not gloppy. nice and shiny finish, use a top coat, and you're good to go.

I have this in a few colors, my favorite is bewitching bordeaux. It is a very dark plum color. The polish applies nicely and dries with a nice creamy finish. The only downside to Revlon nail enamel is they seem to have very limited colors, mostly reds and pinks, but there are a few really nice ones.

I absolutely adore Revlon polishes. I have about ten OPI colours and not one of them wears as long as my revlon polishes. I have 4 or 5 revlon colours and they are all completely opaque in two coats, wear for a very long time, dry quickly, and have a really nice selection of colours. I prefer them to both OPI and Essie, and are about half the price! love.

( colour 900: Pink Nude )Yawn. Boring colour. Took three coats to get something that hid the stains on my nails. I had to put a sheer glitery glaze over the top to inject some life into it. If you want a french mani then this would be ok but for a nice muted nude pink it's just too sheer.
And a drippy formula. Hard to control. Nice size brush though.

these are ok, the colors are nice, but i always get bubbles!! it makes me really mad, but maybe i just have to wait for the 1st coat to dry completely (like 5 hours! why does it take so long?) before i do the 2nd coat. i have gold get'em and passion punch shimmer, both are very nice, but got horrible bubbles, which make it look really bad. i'm not sure if its me or the polish.

PROS - The color range is really good, and it lasts well without chipping.
CONS - Takes the absolute longest of all my polishes to dry!! I find it takes 3 or 4 hours to harden.
If I also use Revlon's "Quick dry base coat" (aka longest dry base coat) it delays drying so badly that it bubbles and ruins the whole manicure. So I believe the problem is mostly from the Quick dry base coat but it should work with its own brand of polishes! I've never had this issue with any other brand!
Overall, it wears well and has pretty colors but Revlon is often a hassle to dry for me. I have not yet had this problem with these other brands: Avon Speed Dry, Maybelline,60 second, Napoleon, Opi, Orly or Sally Hansen. So if I found color dupes at reasonable prices I'd shift over to other brands that dry quicker than Revlon's

BGSU composer receives 2005 Barlow Endowment Commission
Dr. Burton Beerman, director of the MidAmerican Center for Contemporary Music, has been awarded a 2005 Barlow Endowment Commission for Music Composition.
Burton Beerman
Established by Milton A. and Gloria Barlow in 1983 at Brigham Young University, the purpose of the commission is to encourage, financially support and promote excellence in music composition. The endowment, which supports four programs—the Barlow Prize, Barlow General Commissions, Barlow LDS Composers Commissions and Barlow Education Grants—awarded $70,000 to 15 composers this year. It is considered one of the most competitive commissions awarded to composers.
Beerman, music composition, received a general commission for
"A Still Small Voice," a work for cello and dance. It will premiere in New York City during the 2006-07 concert season.
Composed for New York cellist Madeleine Shapiro and dancer/choreographer Celesta Haraszti, the work will utilize the BodySynth Sensor Suit, which allows both performers to interactively control sound in real time. The performance will mark the first time an instrumentalist has used the suit, which consists of sensors that work like an electrocardiogram machine to translate gestures and other movements into sonic textures.
Shapiro has participated in the premieres of numerous works by eminent composers, including Milton Babbitt, John Cage, Charles Wuorinen and Mario Davidovsky. From 1974-96, she was the cellist and co-director of the New Music Consort, a touring ensemble specializing in the performance of 20th-century music. Currently, she is the director of the chamber ensemble MODERNWORKS!, which has appeared at the Ravinia Festival in Chicago as well as the Museum of Modern Art and the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer has described Haraszti, who is also Beerman's wife, as a "virtuoso performer." Originally from Budapest, Hungary, Haraszti has performed in and created more than 40 works. Since 1982 she has toured with Beerman as the Electric Arts Duo, performing throughout the United States, Canada and Europe.
A composer, clarinetist, video artist and computer programmer, Beerman seamlessly integrates technology with other media. He has presented more than 100 concerts and master classes with Haraszti across the United States and Canada over the last four years.
The duo has performed at venues such as the International Summer Meeting of Electroacoustic Music in Hungary, LOGOS in Belgium, Piccolo Spoleto, ClariNet InterNational, Inc., Electronic Music Plus, the American Cultural Centre in Paris, the University of Japan, Town Hall in Brussels and Chopin Hall in Mexico City.
In 1980, Beerman founded the University's annual New Music and Art Festival, which attracts some 1,200 submissions annually from around the world. He received BGSU's Olscamp Research Award in 1999.
His composition awards include first prize from the International Society of Bassists for "Voices," written for soprano voice and string bass, the Martha K. Cooper Orchestra Prize for "Moments" and a D. Lipscomb Prize for "Romance for Piano and Tape." He has recordings on the Advance, Access, Orion and Capstone labels.
The Village Voice wrote of his work, "There is a remarkable clarity in the way Burton Beerman carries out the logic of his materials, and he has an excellent ear for sound color. … The composer displays an acute sensitivity to the differences between live sound and electronic sound, and the music contains extraordinary moments when the sound seems to belong to both worlds."
Beerman's most recent composition, "Tikvah: A Concert of Hope and Remembrance," was part of the University's Holocaust Conference last April. It blended live instrumentals, voice, narration, song and dance with video and special lighting design. The piece also has been performed at the Holocaust Memorial Center in Farmington Hills, Mich., and at the Marcus Jewish Community Center in Atlanta.

During 2011, many of the company's union partners and transportation service providers reduced or maintained rate levels to assist the company in its cost-savings initiatives, which included a reduction in non-union workforce.

National Environmental Engineering Lecture Series Comes to Campus October 16
KINGSVILLE - September 29, 2009
Jason Marton
email@example.com or 361.593.4143
Reception at 5:30 p.m., lecture at 7 p.m., all in Founders' Room
For the first time ever, the national Kappe Lecture Series, of the American Academy of Environmental Engineers (AAEE), comes to Texas A&M University-Kingsville Friday, October 16.
The Kappe Lecture Series is a fall series with the goal of sharing the knowledge of today's practitioners with tomorrow's engineers. It is named after Stanley E. Kappe, P.E., DEE, an environmental engineering who worked for more than 55 years in his field, earned a host of honors and served as the executive director of the AAEE from 1971 to 1981.
A&M-Kingsville was selected by AAEE to host 2009 Kappe lecturer Dr. Rao Y. Surampalli, engineer director for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). Surampalli will deliver the lecture "Nanotechnology and the Environment."
The event is being sponsored by the Center for Research Excellence in Science and Technology–Research on Environmental Sustainability in Semi-Arid Coastal Areas (CREST-RESSACA) in the department of environmental engineering at A&M-Kingsville.
A reception will be held from 5:30-6:30 p.m., with the lecture scheduled for 7 p.m., all taking place in the Founders' Room. The public is invited to attend this free event. Attendees are encouraged to RSVP at 361-593-4330.
The talk will focus on the potential environmental applications of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies, a burgeoning field that is and will be appearing in everything from green chemistry, to soil and water pollution treatments, to cleaning up industrial processes. While there are exciting developments being discussed, there are also issues about unknown consequences associated with exposure to nanomaterials.
Surampalli has been with the USEPA for the past 23 years. His career in private practice, government, university and applied research has given him the opportunity to experience and appreciate the varied interests and challenges of the environmental engineering profession. His main expertise is in the area of water/wastewater treatment, sludge treatment/disposal, hazardous/solid waste management and soil and groundwater treatment.
In addition to his position with the USEPA, Surampalli is an adjunct professor of environmental engineering at six universities: Iowa State University-Ames, University of Missouri-Columbia, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, University of Quebec-Sainte Foy, Tongji University-Shanghai, and Missouri University of Science and Technology-Rolla. He also is an honorary professor in Sichuan University-Chengdu.
Named a Distinguished Engineering Alumnus of both the Oklahoma State University and Iowa State University, Surampalli was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2005, and a member of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts in 2008. He also is a Fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers.
He has provided technical assistance, facilitated technology transfer, and built technical capacity for numerous developed and developing nations, including Brazil, India, Nepal, Taiwan, Japan, Thailand, Philippines, Panama, Germany, Hong Kong, Ghana, China and Korea.
Surampalli has authored more than 400 technical publications, including eight books, 42 book chapters, 142 refereed (peer-reviewed) journal articles, presented at more than 190 national and international conferences, edited 12 refereed conference proceedings and given over 60 plenary, keynote or invited presentations worldwide.
