|Marlins | Wei-Yin Chen the No. 2 starter
Tue, 12 Jan 2016 10:26:42 -0800
Miami Marlins SP Wei-Yin Chen is expected to be the team's No. 2 starting pitcher behind SP Jose Fernandez. Chen went 46-32 with a 3.72 ERA in 117 career starts in four years with the Baltimore Orioles.
Fantasy Tip: Chen is an underrated fantasy player, and the move to the National League and a pitcher's park should do wonders for him. He's not a strikeout pitcher, but he's good at keeping the ball on the ground, and if he continues to do that, he could be a bargain as you round out your fake pitching staff depth in the later rounds.

|Marlins | Wei-Yin Chen agrees with Marlins
Tue, 12 Jan 2016 09:55:44 -0800
Free-agent SP Wei-Yin Chen (Orioles) agreed to a five-year deal with the Miami Marlins Tuesday, Jan. 12. The deal includes a vesting option for a sixth year.
Fantasy Tip: Chen will benefit from the move from Camden Yards to the National League. He's a solid SP3 in fantasy with some upside.

|Marlins | Miami could pursue Wei-Yin Chen
Sun, 10 Jan 2016 07:17:05 -0800
The Miami Marlins are reportedly showing interest in free-agent SP Wei-Yin Chen (Orioles), according to multiple major league sources. However, no move appears imminent.
Fantasy Tip: Chen's fantasy value would be boosted by a move from the hitter-friendly AL East to the offensively-challenged NL East. The 30-year-old left-hander went 11-8 with a 3.34 ERA in 31 starts for Baltimore last season, with 153 strikeouts in 191 1/3 innings. Chen should be viewed as a SP3 in mixed fantasy leagues.

|Nationals | Gio Gonzalez on the block
Fri, 08 Jan 2016 06:38:16 -0800
Washington Nationals SP Gio Gonzalez could be dealt to facilitate the team signing free-agent SP Wei-Yin Chen (Orioles). The Nats are discussing such a scenario, sources say.
Fantasy Tip: Gonzalez slipped up a bit last year and has reached 30 years old. He's still a great SP3. Chen has a bit more upside as he's younger, but he's in that SP3 range as well.

|Royals | KC won't overpay for Wei-Yin Chen
Wed, 23 Dec 2015 11:22:17 -0800
The Kansas City Royals like free-agent SP Wei-Yin Chen (Royals) but aren't ready to go to six years or pay him $100 million on a five-year deal, according to a source.
Fantasy Tip: Chen has been pretty consistent in his days with the Orioles despite pitching in a heavily favored hitter's park. He's underrated as a strikeout artist for fantasy owners, too, and he'd certainly benefit from a move to the Royals. There's a nice buying opportunity here for 2016 drafts.

|Royals | KC eyeing two FA starters
Fri, 18 Dec 2015 10:20:08 -0800
Free-agent SPs Wei-Yin Chen (Orioles) and Yovani Gallardo (Rangers) are receiving interest from the Kansas City Royals. Chen is likely the top left-handed free-agent pitcher still on the market, so they push more for him. Kansas City is also interested in free-agent SP Scott Kazmir (Astros).
Fantasy Tip: Chen is certainly an underrated starter both in real life and in fantasy, and a move to KC would be a boost to his fantasy value moving away from hitter-friendly Camden Yards. Something similar could be said about Gallardo after he pitched his home games in one of the best all-around hitter's parks in baseball. Look for both to present nice buying opportunities in fantasy drafts next spring.

|Orioles | Wei-Yin Chen unlikely back to BAL
Thu, 17 Dec 2015 10:15:52 -0800
Free-agent SP Wei-Yin Chen (Orioles) is unlikely to re-sign with the Baltimore Orioles. The team seems to have moved on after learning he's seeking a five-year, $100 million deal.
Fantasy Tip: Chen will be a mid-to-back-end rotation guy in fantasy whenever he signs with a team.

|Giants | San Francisco seeking another starter
Fri, 11 Dec 2015 14:44:03 -0800
Free-agent SPs Mike Leake (Giants), Wei-Yin Chen (Orioles) and Ian Kennedy (Padres) are all of interest to the San Francisco Giants.
Fantasy Tip: San Francisco is looking for another hurler to fill out their starting rotation. Leake and Chen are low-end grabs in seasonal leagues because of their lack of strikeout upside, and should be reserved for deep mixed formats and usage as streamers in favorable matchups. Kennedy has upside as an end-of-the-rotation arm for your virtual rotation, especially if he sticks in the National League.

|Nationals | Nats could pursue Wei-Yin Chen
Wed, 09 Dec 2015 18:03:22 -0800
The Washington Nationals may decide to pursue free-agent SP Wei-Yin Chen (Orioles) if they are unable to sign free-agent SP Mike Leake (Giants).
Fantasy Tip: The Nationals are looking to fill a void in their starting rotation created by the departure of Jordan Zimmermann through free agency. Chen went 11-8 with a 3.34 ERA in 31 starts for Baltimore in 2015 and is 46-34 with a 3.72 career ERA. His fantasy value is certain to receive a boost if he makes the move from the hitter-friendly AL East to the NL East and he makes a solid middle-of-the-rotation option in all fantasy formats.

Constipation after introducing solids...
This is completely normal. Both of my boys experienced some form of constipation while their tummies were adjusting to solids. I learned that pumpkin is the great poop inducer!!! It made both my boys poop within a day of feeding it to them. GL!!
prunes work for us!!! i give her about 1/2 a 'tub' of gerber brand for breakfast and usually by lunch time, i have a dirty diaper!!
good luck!!! (and maybe try making the solids a little more liquidy!! it helps us)
The "p" fruits definitely help with constipation. Beware that peaches, pears, and plums (prunes) are on the "Dirty" list so buy organic!
my pedi said to stop giving constipating foods like bananas, avocado, sweet potatoes for awhile and only do prunes, pears and peaches. He's back on track now,pooping twice a day! He went about 5 days without poop when I saw the pedi and she wasn't worried, she said its normal for them to go even longer without pooping. So when I adjusted his diet to all the "P" foods, the poop started coming normally in a day or 2. GL!

wow, einfach perfekt. Wunderschön
You need to smooth out your breast wrapping under the boob tube the crease in the middle draws the eye to much. You skin make up is to dark go for a more orange look and smooth out the surface of the lekku at the top it looks to bumpy. And if u make the tails attach to the top/head piece further up you won't get the scrunched up look near the middle. It means the tails will have the flexibility to contour with your shoulders and chest better and give a much more natural look to them. Other than that good job lol. JFS
wow, great detail down to the redish skin, nice
That is so awesome!
I like.
My Wife and I have written a number of stories about Ahsoka and her life after she left the Jedi. We would love to use some of your excellent images for the covers of these books.
Please contact us so we can discuss royalties etc phone 0413309351 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
For me, you really look like Ahsoka if she existed in reality.

And you're very beautiful, also. Molto, molto bella.

iHerb Customer Reviews
Careful with amount applied
4 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer2932864 on Jul 25, 2012
This comes with a dropper. The smell is herbalist and a bit like grapefruit which dissipates after a while. The liquid doesn't seem oily to me, so the first time I used it, I was quite liberal in my application: parted my hair and put like one full dropper-full of this all over on my scalp. Hair was fine that day, but the next morning it was really greasy and oily! And I have dry frizzy hair! So in subsequent uses, I only apply 1/4 of a dropper-full to my whole head and that is more than enough. Noticed less shedding when shampooing. Hair is less poofy and more shiny. But now too early to tell if I have any major growth of hair. Will edit my review if anything.

this product really does work, my daughter has suffered from a itchy scalp for years and it took away the itch and smelt really fresh, and made her hair extremely soft. The only down side to this serum was that head lice loved this product. Within a day of using this product her lice free head was full of lice. We ceased it and reused it after getting rid of lice, only to have them return. It is a shame this is a great product.
Great but too oily

I really like this serum because it smells wonderful but also it really soothes the itchiness on the scalp. My only problem is that it is too oily. I don't know if it is the kind of hair I have, but one drop in the area makes my just washed hair look like it hasn't been washed for days. Other than that this product is great for the scalp to eliminate itchiness and restore it to a healthier state.

From contributing to children's books to simply lunching with K-12 students, from conducting outreach on the principles of robotics to grade-school students by Historically Black Colleges and Universities to recruiting high-school teachers to help with air-quality research, NSF-funded researchers already are engaged in a myriad of activities that fully reflect the spirit of National Lab Day.
While far from an exhaustive catalogue of grantees' education outreach to K-12 schools, these examples--drawn from projects from Montana to Louisiana and Alaska to Puerto Rico--provide templates for success for NSF-funded scientists, engineers, and mathematicians, as well as program officers and other members of the wider NSF community, eager to participate in National Lab Day.
Principal investigator: Lindsay Shopland, The Jackson Laboratory
How do you capture the attention of 8-year-olds? Easy--show them something slimy, smelly and gross. In Lindsay Shopland's experience, germs will do the trick. Shopland works with a team of scientists from the Jackson Laboratory to introduce bacteriology and the scientific process to second graders at the Conners Emerson elementary school in Bar Harbor, Maine.
Every year for the past 12 years, a group of Jackson scientists has spent three mornings leading second graders on a bacteria hunt. On day one, the scientists explain that bacteria are invisible but can be made visible if you give them food and a warm place to grow into a colony. The scientists work with the class to generate a hypothesis about where bacteria are growing in the classroom. Then the students, with the help of the scientist, set up the "Bacteria Hunt Experiment," testing for bacteria on their desks, the door knob, the sink, the plants and most importantly, their hands. They swab these test sites and transfer any bacteria to Petri plates with food for the bacteria to grow and form colonies. On day two, after the plates have spent the night in a nice warm incubator, the colony count begins. Like all scientists, the students log important results in their notebooks: how many colonies are on the plates, what color they are, and how they smell. As you might expect from second graders, their hands usually win the "germiest site contest." And so the "Hand Washing Experiment" begins. Students test their hands for bacteria before and after washing. On day three, they count bacteria colonies again. Parents take heart: the students are shocked to find out just how effective hand washing is. In addition to hygiene, the children's eyes are opened to the world of microscopic organisms. They also get to walk in the shoes of professional scientists, see them as real people and, best of all, wear lab coats.
Principal investigator: Michael Khonsari, Louisiana Board of Regents
"If you understand science, you can do that. And each of you will do it by the end of this class," promises Laura Whitlock, a member of Louisiana NSF EPSCoR's Speaking of Science (SoS) program, who personifies her contention that being a scientist is "cool." In her SoS presentation, "It's Toys; No, It's Science! Understanding Motion," she uses everyday materials to demonstrate basic scientific principles. Whitlock, for example, notes that it was Sir Isaac Newton who proved that to understand motion, you just need to look at all of the forces involved. Whitlock, an assistant professor of physics at Louisiana State University-Shreveport , cites her versions of his three laws of motion with which we can understand how most toys function: 1) All objects want to keep doing whatever they were doing and won't change unless you force them. 2) Forces can change your motion. They can speed you up or slow you down; make you turn left or turn right or even around. 3). If I push on you, you push back on me unless I break you. That push-back affects me; only the forces on you affect you.
Later, Whitlock gives students a paperclip, a strip of paper and directions on how to make their first helicopter. She then instructs them to stand up, drop it and tell her which way it is moving (counter clockwise). "Now reverse the folds and tell me which way it is moving" (clockwise). Citing Newton's laws, she explains why they can know how it is going to move. This plainspoken approach excites students about science and scientific principles in a way that stays with them long after the workshops.
Principal investigator: Jay Keasling, University of California-Berkeley
The NSF-funded Synthetic Biology Engineering Research Center (SynBERC) at the University of California, Berkeley has formed a partnership with the Saturday Engineering Enrichment and Discovery (SEED) Academy, a free program for underserved high school students in Massachusetts, to design and teach an eight-week biological engineering teaching unit. The SEED Academy's mission is to increase the number of traditionally underserved students in the pipeline for the technical workforce, so this new teaching unit is a perfect fit for helping to achieve that goal, especially given the Boston area's concentration of biotech startups, mature companies and academic and research institutions.
Though based in California, SynBERC works with institutions throughout the U.S. and as far away as Korea to further NSF's goal of improving education and outreach to communities that are underrepresented in the sciences, in order to expand the future pipeline of professionals in science and engineering fields. For two years, SynBERC graduate students worked with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), which organizes the SEED Academy, to design and teach the program for the high-school students it serves from Boston, Cambridge and Lawrence, Mass. The biological engineering teaching unit is also now available for wider use on the OpenWetWare wiki, a site for researchers and others working in biology and biological engineering to share information, know-how and wisdom.
Principal Investigator: Mayra Montrose, National Science Foundation
Caitlin McCabe, a fifth-grade teacher at Oak Grove Elementary School in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., and her students created their own Medal of Science award process in which each student researched and learned about a different famous scientist and then drafted a formal nomination, as though it were to be submitted to the National Science Foundation, which administers the Medal of Science for the White House. The class made their best case to NSF for why Ralph Baer (widely known as "the Father of Video Games"), Bill Gates, Marie Curie and other prominent people should win the coveted Presidential award. Mayra Montrose, NSF's National Medal of Science program manager, answered all of the students' nomination letters with personalized responses, thanking them for their nomination. She also provided NSF patches and rulers to each student. In the end, it was the students themselves who chose the winners: first place, Baer; second place, Walt Disney; and third place, Hippocrates.

Principal Investigator: John Spencer, University of Iowa
John Spencer, director of the Delta Center at the University of Iowa, and Christian Faubel, an artist and scientist at the Institute for Neurocomputing at the Ruhr University in Bochum, Germany, created a series of workshops entitled "Overhead 'Bots" to introduce 5-to-12-year-old children to basic ideas of cognition, development, and engineering, through active learning and play. The children built small robots by soldering parts, including a solar panel and simple motor, to a circuit board. They decorated the 'bots with colored wax paper, ribbons and other embellishments. When placed on an overhead projector, which provided the light source for the solar panel, the 'bots came to life and started moving in interesting ways, projecting lively, unpredictable art on the walls of the museum. This activity illustrated central concepts that Spencer and Faubel use in their research on cognitive and developmental science.
In a follow-up to the workshops for children, high-school students enrolled in the Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County participated in tours of several laboratories at the Delta Center at the University of Iowa.
Principal Investigator: Laura Allen, Vision Education and Media
GreenFab is an educational program at Bronx Guild High School, designed to introduce low-income, minority high school youth in the Hunts Point neighborhood of the South Bronx to engineering and technology skill sets that are used in the sustainable technologies industry. The program draws on students environmental and economic conditions and problems as raw material from which to create an instructional program. Partners in the venture include Vision Education and Media, an educational services provider that heads up the program, Sustainable South Bronx, a nonprofit organization, Bronx Guild High School, a public school, and New York Universitys Interactive Telecommunications Program. Through hands-on projects, students learn how to work with computers, and they design and build electronic devices that address environmental needs. Projects include building working model wind turbines and solar vehicles. They also learn to apply things they create to help raise community consciousness about the environment and how human behavior can help or harm it. With access to fabrication tools, the Internet and knowledgeable mentors (scientists and engineers), students are able to complete sophisticated projects that are usually only done by those with extensive preparation in science and mathematics.
Principal Investigator: Aaron Doering, University of Minnesota
What does climate change mean to each one of us in relation to our geographic location, our connection to the land and our sense of place? The project networks 40 schools across the U.S., Canada, Russia, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Greenland, allowing students and teachers to form partnerships with scientists to explore aspects of climate change across tundra, taiga, prairies and maritime regions. The project allows students to track a dog-sled expedition across these regions as a way to engage students. The 2010 expedition in Greenland will last from mid-April to mid-May.
Principal Investigator: Carole Greenes, Arizona State University
The Prime the Pipeline Project (P3) is implementing and evaluating a "Scientific Village" strategy to increase high school students' interest in STEM careers as well as to update science, mathematics and technology secondary school teachers in their own and related fields, and to introduce them to a new instructional strategy. Scientific Villages, each with 24 members, including high school teachers (participating as learners), high school students (of the class of 2011), undergraduate STEM majors (serving as mentors) and village leaders (practicing scientists and engineers from Arizona State University or industry), collaborate to solve long-term challenging problems that mirror the work of STEM professionals.
The Village approach is based on motivational research that suggests that learning is enhanced when work is project-based, capitalizes on students' interests and talents with technology, and provides extended opportunities for collaboration with experts and peers. Among the 16 different villages conducted to date are those in which villagers: explored and developed functioning models of clean rooms; considered alternative energy sources and built working models of wind turbines, "placing them" in areas in the world that are energy needy and have high winds; programmed applications for the iPod; developed computer simulations of traumas to the human body; and studied cell-phone communications and designed a cost-efficient network for Arizona.
Principal Investigator: Brad Weiner, University of Puerto Rico
In conjunction with NanoDays, a national event organized by Nanoscale Informal Science Education Network, researchers and students from the University of Puerto Rico take their research on nanoscience and technology to the general public at a two-day exhibition in the atrium of Plaza Las Americas, the 15th largest mall in the US. The Institute of Functional Nanomaterials trained 154 students from five public high schools in the jurisdiction to man eight interactive exhibits that presented the basic concepts and applications in nanoscience. Collaborating undergraduate and graduate students offered more in-depth explanations and participated in a poster exhibition, presenting current research themes in nanoscience. Five thousand people of all ages engaged in hands-on activities which aroused their curiosity. Interaction with the student presenters provided a venue for learning about applications of nanoscience research at the campuses of Puerto Rican universities.

Teachers and Researchers Exploring and Collaborating is a teacher professional-enhancement program that pairs 36 K-12 educators with polar researchers for field experiences in the Arctic and Antarctic, shared through live webcasts, Internet presentations, podcasts from the field, the daily posting of teacher journals, interactive bulletin boards, photo galleries, online multimedia learning resources and CARE (Connecting Arctic/Antarctic Researchers and Educators) web meetings to translate experiences into the classroom.
Principal investigator: Michael Tomz, Stanford University
Problems of credibility are central to international relations. Every day, leaders make threats and promises when dealing with other countries. Why and when should anyone take foreign leaders at their word? Tomz has developed an integrated program of research and education to explore this fundamental question. His work focuses on two potentially important markers of credibility: Did leaders go public by telling their citizens about threats and promises they issued abroad? And did they go legal by embedding their commitments in treaties and other international agreements?
Tomz has worked with a team of research assistants to create a new dataset about military commitments in international relations. Undergraduates have been involved in researching the histories and writing narratives of the more than 1,000 disputes in the NSF-funded Militartized Interstate Dispute dataset. To date, 31 high school students, from a wide range of backgrounds, have been involved in researching the history of militarized disputes and writing narratives about them. They have also participated in research conferences sponsored by Tomz in 2008 and 2009, where they made formal presentations in which they identified challenges of measurement and proposed ways to solve them. They also proposed new hypotheses about military disputes and designed research projects based on their ideas. By participating directly in research, these high school students gained a deeper understanding of scientific findings and methods. They also gained skills in a variety of areas--data collection and analysis, oral and written presentation, critical thinking and teamwork--that will serve them throughout their lives.

Concentrations of volatile organic pollutants were measured in and around homes in Missoula, Mont., in this unique collaboration between K-12 teachers and students from Big Sky High School and University of Montana researchers. Significant concentrations of organic pollutants, including toluene
were measured inside the homes. Despite the semi-rural location in this study, concentrations of indoor pollutants were comparable to those found in previous studies of urban homes. The project highlights a collaboration between David Jones, a teacher at Big Sky High School, his students; Heidi Underberg , an undergraduate student at Augustana College and university scientists Tony Ward, Raymond Hamilton and Earle Adams, that led to a significant result in environmental science.
Principal investigator: Melissa Hines, Cornell University
Over the past 10 years, researchers at the Cornell Materials Research Science and Engineering Center have developed hundreds of hands-on activities that bring the excitement of science into the classroom. To increase their impact, Cornell is partnering with colleagues at Arecibo Observatory and the University of Puerto Rico to take their expertise south. This spring, the two groups ran a joint workshop for elementary school teachers on the universitys campus in Mayagüez. At the one-day workshop, teachers learned new ways to integrate microscopy into elementary education and received supplies for
materials-focused classroom activities. At Arecibo Observatory, Cornell graduate students taught elementary students from around the island about energy and fuel cells. During the session, the students enthusiastically collaborated to build their own battery-powered electrolyzers.
Principal investigator: Steve Lansing, University of Arizona
Steve Lansing collaborated with children's book author, Jan Reynolds, to produce a tremendously successful middle-school science book on Balinese sustainable rice farming. The book is based on Lansing's many years of NSF-funded research on Balinese irrigation systems. The book has won numerous awards, including: Smithsonian Magazine's Notable Children's Books for 2009; Honor Book/grade K-6 Social Studies, Society for School Librarians International; Notable Books for a Global Society International Reading Association; Best books Grade 7-12 Science Society of School Librarians International; and the John Burroughs Young Readers Award from the American Museum of Natural History. The book is having a tremendous impact in its first year, and it is based entirely on research funded by NSF's cultural anthropology and biocomplexity programs.
Principal investigator: Shelly Harvey, Rice University
Shelly Harvey is a recipient of an NSF CAREER award. For the educational component of her project, she proposed to establish a two-week summer mathematics program for high school girls. Her goal was to introduce high level abstract mathematics to the girls in such a way that they will view the discipline as useful, fun and exciting. The first workshop was held in 2008 on the Rice University campus. Harvey received more than 75 applications from 13 different high schools and accepted 20 of those students. The teaching staff consisted of Harvey, a postdoctoral assistant and two graduate students, all female.
The core of the program was a two-week course in knot theory--a branch of pure mathematics closely related to Harvey's research program. Harvey describes knots as strings with closed ends in three-dimensional space. In addition, there were several individual modules on other parts of mathematics, including group theory, cryptography, countable and uncountable sets, probability, logic and proofs. Almost none of these topics are covered in a high school mathematics syllabus. Several connections were built between knot theory and the material developed in the modules. The participants also investigated some open problems. Harveys intention was to introduce the students to the concept of research in mathematics and demonstrate that, unlike the homework that they do in their typical math classes, not all mathematics problems are already solved.
Principal investigator: Andreea Trache, Texas A&M
Using funds from her NSF CAREER grant Andreea Trache from the Texas A&M Health Science Center in College Station organized an outreach program called "Saturday Morning Biophysics: Image Life!" The program's goal is to stimulate interest in science among high school girls from the surrounding rural Texas area and to communicate the excitement of research while also providing information on career paths at the interface between physics and biology. Through a partnership with Girl Scouts of Central Texas, Trache supplemented the NSF funding to subsidize the required transportation and meals for the participating students. The outreach program consists of five sessions in the fall semester, including: research lectures offered by Texas A&M professors from different colleges; an education and careers in science lecture offered by female graduate students, who are the first in their families to attend college and are presently graduate students at Texas A&M University; and hands-on activities and laboratory
demonstrations using atomic force and confocal microscopes organized by Trache's group. The program was offered in 2008 and 2009 to a total of 48 high-school girls (22 of them minority students) from five different towns in rural Texas. In addition adults also participated in the program (Girl Scouts chaperons and parents).
Principal investigator: Carlo Yuvienco, New York University
Carlo Yuvienco, a doctoral candidate in the Polytechnical Institute of New York University's (NYU-Poly) biomedical engineering program, coached at New York City's P.S. 11 for the borough-wide qualifier of the FIRST LEGO League, a competition that uses robots to conquer real-world engineering challenges. Yuvienco and 12 other NYU-Poly students have lent their services to middle schools in Brooklyn as part of the Applying Mechatronics to Promote Science (AMPS) and the Central Brooklyn Robotics Initiative (CBRI) programs, funded in part by NSF, the Brooklyn Community Foundation and a Motorola Innovation Generation Grant. Noel Kriftcher, executive director of NYU-Poly's David Packard Center for Technology and Educational Alliances, as well as Professors Vikram Kapila and Magued Iskander, guided the activities, which aligned with the center's mission to train and support teachers interested in weaving advanced technologies into their curriculums. Each week for 10-15 hours, Yuvienco and his peers visit a local classroom and share what they know about the STEM disciplines.
Principal Investigator: Anant Kukreti, University of Cincinnati
Building upon a successfully completed Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) site, the project provides a three-year research experience for 7th to 12th grade teachers in "Civil Infrastructure Renewal and Rehabilitation" through the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Cincinnati. The project educates, cultivates and facilitates 7th to 12th grade science and math teachers through exploration of the scientific method of inquiry and the critical research skills that engineers use to solve open-ended, real-world
problems. In this way, the teachers participating in the RET site will be able to apply their research experiences in their classrooms and with colleagues. The teachers' new skills will also enable 7th to 12th grade students to directly link their education to events and issues occurring within their community and will encourage them to become effective citizens in a technology-driven society. This summer experience motivates the teachers to become critical thinkers, apply science to daily living, use civil infrastructure examples as a context to
convey math and science concepts and encourage their students to consider engineering careers.
Principal investigators: Kent Murray and Jacob Napieralski, University of Michigan-Dearborn
The Geoscience Institute for Research and Education (GRI) is a partnership of the University of Michigan-Dearborn, the Detroit Public Schools (DPS) and local corporations to extend research and learning in the geosciences to underrepresented groups within the Detroit metropolitan area. The goal of the program is to build awareness of the geosciences and to create an enthusiastic learning experience designed to motivate students to stay in school and to consider science, particularly the geosciences, as a possible career.
The program is designed to reverse a current trend in which more than 40 percent of DPS students drop out of school and only 21 percent graduate from high school in four years. The project involves middle school students early in their educational career, along with their teachers, in ongoing, community-based research projects which demonstrate how the geosciences can be used as a tool to solve locally and socially relevant environmental problems that are also internationally important. The main GRI activities consist of spring and summer institutes that expose approximately 30-50 middle school students and their families and several teachers each year to the geosciences through inquiry-based, watershed-related environmental projects in southeast Michigan. The teachers, who typically do not have degrees in geology, are encouraged to return to school to take more geology courses in order to increase their competency, as stipulated by the No Child Left Behind Act, but also to increase their excitement and enthusiasm for the geosciences.
Principal investigator: Hazel Holden, University of Wisconsin-Madison
In Hazel Holden's lab, researchers study enzymes that are needed for the biosynthesis of various sugars that are attached, for example, to some antibiotics, anti-tumor agents, or to the outer surfaces of bacteria. The researchers use primarily X-ray crystallography, a powerful method that allows one to "see" a protein in three dimensions. For this technique, crystals need to be grown. Holden, a professor of biochemistry, believed that these projects are ideally suited for instilling in middle school students the excitement of chemistry through biochemistry.
Project CRYSTAL, developed by Holden, Dan Toomey, a science teacher at Edgewood Middle School, and three of Holden's graduate students--Nate Bruender, Amanda Carney and Rachel Kubiak--was designed to address two major issues facing our nation's children: obesity and healthy diet. The project serves to instill a love for chemistry in middle school students by studying the main food group elements: proteins, lipids and carbohydrates. It provides hands-on laboratory experience in an active, state-of-the-art research laboratory, thus fostering possible interest in a future science career. And outreach activities make chemistry more accessible to "at-risk" students.
During the fall of 2008, Edgewood Middle School students in Madison, Wisc., learned the basic lab techniques of molecular biology including cloning, protein expression and purifications. The students have already crystallized a protein that is being studied in Holden's lab. They are learning not only about the research that is being done in the lab, but how it applies to their own lives. By studying the biochemistry of sugars, fats, and proteins, the students will ultimately be able to make informed choices on what foods they eat.
Principal investigator: Lesley-Ann Dupigny-Giroux, University of Vermont & State Agricultural College and Vermont state climatologist
The Satellites, Weather and Climate (SWAC) project at the University of Vermont
(UVM) is two-year, professional-development program aimed at enhancing the competency of K-12 science and mathematics teachers. The primary SWAC partners are teachers from participating schools in Vermont.
Teachers have participated in four modules to date. Monthly workshops have been held since October 2008 during which SWAC team members--who include Regina Toolin, an assistant professor of education; John Aleong, a professor in the Plant and Soil Science Department; and Stephen Hogan, retired National Weather Service forecaster--share climate and geospatial content and hands-on activities for using in the classroom. The four modules include cloud identification and monitoring; weather interpretation; tropospheric profile creation and analysis and; land surface interpretation. The goal is for teachers to learn about SWAC content and make connections to real-world situations that have value outside the classroom, increase student engagement and motivation for the sciences and challenge students to think critically about such scientific problems as global warming.
Principal investigator: Tom Zinnen, NSF
"Tuesday Morning @ The Lab" gives 70 preschoolers ages 2 through 5 at the Bright Horizons National Science Foundation day care a chance to experience science as exploring the unknown through experiments. Each Tuesday, Tom Zinnen, an NSF staffer and parent of two children at the day care, leads an activity that invites the children and their teachers to explore and test their ideas, drawing on their own sense of fairness and curiosity. Zinnen works 15 minutes with each of six different groups of eight to 16 children, starting with the 2-year-olds and working up to the 5-year-olds. He starts with a germ of an idea using simple materials--for example, "Which milk makes better bubbles: skim, whole or chocolate?"-- and then the children's own reactions, insights and ideas drive the evolution of the activity from a germ of an idea to a well-honed activity over the course of the six sessions. The children get a weekly experience in science as "figuring stuff out," and Zinnen gets a weekly experience in amazement at how ingenious the kids are. This synergistic arrangement also serves as a 90-minute example of Rapid Prototype Development that speeds the testing, refining and development of new hands-on activities that emphasize science as experimentation and engineering as ingenuity.

We're hurtling towards the end of 2012 and it's normally at this time of year when annual awards are given out.
We've seen another fantastic calendar year in the Premier League that's been full of excitement and controversy.
The purpose of writing this was to name a player from the English Premier League who's entertained me the most, as a fan, in 2012.
Again, this is just my opinion. It doesn't make it right, it doesn't make it wrong, but it might be different than yours.
For me, Robin van Persie has been the most entertaining Premier League player of 2012.
Think about it.
Without the sheer volume of goals he scored last season, Arsenal would have been in deep trouble and in truth, his goals papered over a lot of the cracks at the Emirates.
He scored 30 league goals for the Gunners last season and was talismanic as they somehow managed to secure Champions League football again, despite a terrible start to the season.
Just look at the problems Arsenal have had since he left in August.
Without the outlet of Van Persie, in terms of his skill, touch, ability and goal threat, they've suffered badly.
Arsenal's loss has been Manchester United's gain though.
When it was speculated that Van Persie would leave the Emirates, I always thought that if he stayed in England, the team he signed for would win the title.
Sir Alex Ferguson shelled out £24 million to prise him away from Arsenal, and while the title race is far from over, Manchester United are in pole position to do that.
Van Persie has started off at Old Trafford where he left off at the Emirates, scoring 12 goals in 17 league games.
In 2012 alone, Van Persie has scored 25 league goals for Arsenal and Manchester United.
That's a phenomenal return, especially when you consider that the Premier League is widely regarded as the most competitive league in the world.
There's every chance he'll break the 30 mark by the time December's over too.
Football fans pay their season ticket money, or cash at the gate, to be entertained and to see goals.
Robin van Persie has done that over the last 12 months for two of the biggest clubs in the country and his contributions simply can't be overlooked.
I genuinely can't think of another player who's contributed as much to his club, or clubs, over the last 12 months than Robin van Persie, so for me, he has to be the most the most entertaining player of 2012.

The NFC East is tightening up as we get down to the end of the season. The Dallas Cowboys find themselves right in the middle of things with a 6-6 record and 1 game out of first place behind the struggling New York Giants. The Cowboys 38-33 win over the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday is turning out to be one of the most important wins of the year for the Cowboys since the Giants lost a close battle to the surging Washington Redskins 17-16 Monday night.As the week started the Cowboys injury report looked like a lineup in a M.A.S.H unit.

L'Ecume des Jours: Seafood, Wine, Cheese, Coffee and Calvados
On the terrace overlooking the harbour, the sun shining, a bi-lingual waiter and superb food. There is nothing comparable. It doesn't matter where you are, if you get this combination - life is sorted.
Watching the world go by, the working boats going about their daily busines, including one being filled with wooden pallets (boring perhaps, but not to me!).
A perfecty pleasant four course lunch, over a time scale of about 2 and a half hours, with two different wines and coffee and calvados to finish.
Service absolutely excellent. This is serious chill time.
New pic added of frontage which really doesn't do it justice - on warmer days the terraces really do add life to the place.*
Do visit the website for a taster.
Favorite Dish: To start I had the grilled lobster with scallops - to die for!!!
For main - monkfish with bacon and a walnut? tuille - I have now died twice!!!!!
I haven't even mentioned the amuse guille of mussels.
The selection of cheeses - I have now died three times in the same lunchtime!!!!!!
A couple of glasses of different wines, coffee and calvados and I am now well and truly buried!!!!!!!

Brasserie les Alizes: A Perfect "Menu Formule"
Unfortunately the ferry schedule on this trip didn't leave quite enough time for a lingering leisurely lunch but then if it had I mightn't have discovered the delights of this classy brasserie.
Les Alizes really is an attractive restaurant with its 1st floor dining room overlooking the harbour through its ceiling-high panoramic windows. The designer decor manages to blend traditional and trendy. The stone-clad walls act as a backdrop to the beachy modern artworks whilst the subtle use of sailcloth softens the harshness of the metalled and darkwood rails and dividers.
Service is smartly black-uniformed, once again trendy, but youthfully friendly and the lunchtime clientele (out of season at any rate) an egalitarian mix of locals and visitors.
The menu too offers an eclectic mix of classical and nouvelle, seafood and meats, with set formulas to suit most pockets, along with a short a-la-carte.
Favorite Dish: What caught my eye as I was wandering looking for lunch was the simple blackboard "Le Retour du Pecheur" menu at 12.50 Euro for 2-courses including wine. This offered a Terrine of Chicken Livers, a Poellee de Seches Bretonnes, a Panna Cotta a la Vanille and a cheery "Bon Appetit".
The terrine was a perfectly-executed classic: meaty and liverey and simply presented with a few cornichons and a cherry tomato. I wasn't sure what the "Seches" was going to be when I ordered it but I certainly wasn't disappointed when it turned out to be strips of squid, slow-cooked to mouth-melting tenderness in a seafood bisque. This came on a bed of buttery rice and attractively topped with a "spaghetti" of courgette and carrot and a little pluck of lamb's lettuce for colour.
Along with some excellent crusty bread and a glass of local vin de table this made for one of the best lunches I've had for a while and the view across the bay and the gentle Bretonne buzz of conversation around were welcome bonuses.
Well worth searching out - not that you need to search that far as it is a prominent building on the quayside.

Le Restaurant: Eating On The Ferries
All three of the boats that ply the Roscoff-Plymouth route have self-service diners offering a full-range of meals and snacks. In the mornings these are open for breakfast - everything from coffee and croissants to a full fry-up. On day sailings they offer hot and cold meals until about half an hour before arrival and on night sailings are usually open until about midnight.
The standard of food is excellent, prices are reasonable and staff are friendly, multi-lingual and generally helpful.
Favorite Dish: I usually just have something light and with a freshly-baked bread roll the aperatif platters make for a substantial snack. Pictured is a minted cous cous salad which came with a balsamic dressing and was exactly what I was after for a late supper. Washed down with a glass of Beaujolais Village the bill was less than 8 Euros.

La Moule Au Pot: Not a Breton Creperie!
This small bistro style French restaurant is located only a few doors away from our favourite B&B Hotel in Roscoff. After two previous unsuccessful attempts to get a table there we were third time lucky.
Reservation is recommended.
The menu is typical for a French fishing resort/port with many fish choices but an interesting selection of classic French dishes using meat and vegetables. My starter of tartine with the local Roscoff pink onions with a generous side salad, followed by parmentier de poissons - fish pie -were very good. John had a magret de canard with salad to start -excellent but was brought the wrong main course so he had a lasagne de mer instead of the ordered jambon dish. However it was excellent and he declined to send it back. Desetrs were both suberb - the best Far Breton in the west and a delicious egg custard with framboises.
A good, small selection of wines at prices that compared well with those in inferior but more expensive establishments.
The ambience is simple bistro, a huge chimney with a log fire, gentle but subtle lighting and some carefully chosen, colourful modern art work.
In spite of the hiccup with the order and a small, quickly rectified mistake on the bill we would go back ther very happily. THe restaurant was full and very busy the night we visited - 17 October 2009.
An extra pair of hands for waiting on would help.
Le Surcouf: Busy and Good
This large, corner restaurant in the main street always looked busy and we got the mistaken idea that it was a fast-food operation.
It was recommended to us on this visit so we ate there and found how wrong we were.
It certainly was busy and we were lucky to get a table on a Saturday night without a reservation.
Menus start at 16 Euro and both that and the 27 Euro, as well as ther Carte offer extremely good value.
The food is freshly cooked with an emphasis on fresh fish and seafood and local specialities like artichoke. My main course was a Marmite of fish stew while my husband enjoyed confit of duck in a red wine sauce.
There was a good selection of ciders and wines at fair prices.
Service was professional without pomp or fussiness and it is not hard to see why this is such a popular restaurant with locals and visitors.
I was intrigued by the name of the restaurant.
For the curious Robert Surcouf was an 18th century Corsaire after whom a number of French Naval vessels - frigates and a sub-marine have been named
Chez Janie: Excellent food and a lovely view
This is a really nice place off the old port. You can just stop on the terasse for drinks or you can do as I did and have a delicious stuffed artichoke for lunch. Staff speaks English as well.
It is also a hotel and has some seriously nice ratings on other sites...perhaps next time I will get a room here.
Favorite Dish: Roscoff has some sort of micro-climate and is really well known for its artichokes so that is what I ordered and it was just delicious.

Selflessness Can Threaten Clergy Members' Health
Latest Mental Health News
TUESDAY, July 10 (HealthDay News) -- The tendency of clergy to put others' needs ahead of their own may take a toll on their health, according to a new study.
Researchers from Duke University said chronic diseases and depression are more prevalent among clergy than lay people. Encouraging them to seek medical care is difficult because they focus on helping others first, the study authors said.
"Clergy recognize the importance of caring for themselves, but doing so takes a back seat to fulfilling their vocational responsibilities, which are tantamount to caring for an entire community," said Rae Jean Proeschold-Bell, research director of the Clergy Health Initiative at Duke Divinity School and assistant research professor at the Duke Global Health Institute.
The researchers examined focus-group data from 88 United Methodist clergy in North Carolina and found that clergy members have increased rates of obesity (40 percent compared to the average of 29 percent), as well as higher rates of diabetes, asthma, arthritis and hypertension.
The study also found that clergy members show signs of depression at nearly double the national average (10.5 percent versus 5.5 percent).
Despite greater prevalence of chronic diseases, clergy members also are more likely to say their health doesn't affect their ability to do their work, the study's authors said.
"Clergy perceive themselves to be much healthier than they actually are," Proeschold-Bell said in a university news release. "They don't always recognize that they need help. That makes it all the more important that we design health interventions that pastors are likely to accept."
Duke researchers said they are designing health programs that address the tendency of clergy to set their own health needs aside.
"Many pastors equate self-care with selfishness," said Proeschold-Bell. "They feel they need permission to take the time to attend to their health. A health intervention aimed at clergy must address this tendency head-on."
To be successful, health intervention programs for the clergy must find solutions to many barriers to care, including cost, unpredictable work schedules and fear of the stigma associated with mental-health issues. The researchers said a program designed for pastors also must show a link between physical and mental health and spiritual health.
The study, recently published in the Journal of Prevention & Intervention in the Community, doesn't prove that ministering to others causes chronic disease. It merely noted an association between clergy members and poor health.

According to reports, New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was arrested by Massachusetts State Police in connection to the murder of Odin Lloyd, an associate of Hernandez. Multiple police cars and a K-9 unit arrived at the home of Hernandez on Saturday afternoon and completed a mass search of his home. Lloyd's body was discovered in North Attleboro, Mass, less than a mile from the home of Hernandez. The two had previously been seen together on Sunday night with one another. There are reports from neighbors of hearing gun shots. Alleged evidence linking Hernandez to the murder of Floyd, a broken cell phone from Hernandez's home, surveillance video from Hernandez's that he reportedly tried to destroy, and the hiring of a professional cleaning crew the morning after the Lloyd's body was found. There is some additional circumstantial evidence that has been reported, such as a rental car driven by Floyd in the name of Hernandez, and the relationship of Floyd dating the sister of Hernandez's girlfriend. Last Friday, there were multiple reports that an arrest warrant had been obtained to arrest Hernandez under the charge of obstruction of justice. It was reported that the Patriots informed Hernandez to stay [...]

Quick & Easy Creamy Basil and Tomato Sauce over Fresh Pasta
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 15 mins
This is a favorite quick sauce for pasta. I love to serve this with fresh pasta, basil and tomatoes. It takes only minutes and is so easy ... but so good. Serve with with a fresh green salad and of course some crusty bread.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb fresh pasta (linguini is what I prefer and you could also use spaghetti)
- 1 (15 ounce) can chicken broth
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (room temperature)
- 1⁄4 cup parmesan cheese
- 2 1⁄2 cups plum tomatoes (lightly seeded and rough chopped)
- 1 cup kalamata olive, cut in half
- 1 small onion (cut in half and thin sliced)
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1⁄2 cup fresh basil, chopped
- 1⁄4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- salt
- pepper
- grated parmesan cheese
- Sauce -- In a large pan heat up the chicken broth to medium heat. Stir in the cream cheese until soft. Using a fork or small whisk, mix until well combined. Slowly add in the parmesan cheese, garlic, red pepper flakes and pepper (hold off on the salt) and mix well until heated through.
- Pasta -- Cook the pasta according to directions in salted water. Once done, drain (reserve 1 cup of the pasta water) and set to the side.
- Finish the Sauce -- Now the sauce is heated all the way through and the cheeses are melted, add in the olives, tomatoes and basil. Toss well and then check for salt. I like to add a little, but remember the broth and olives are both salty, so just add a little. Add in the pasta directly to the sauce and toss well. If you prefer your sauce a little thinner, add some of the pasta water. Garnish with fresh parmesan.
- Even though it is a rich sauce, the tomatoes and olives make it a very light pasta dish. It is great for a quick night dinner. Literally just 15-20 minutes to cook and it is on the table.
Most Helpful
Very good... I did alter a little bit... I cut out the olives and the onion... and I used garlic powder instead of the fresh garlic... but still turned out well... The only thing I would change for next time is to add some extra seasoning...
