U.S. Pushes Target for Hiring the Disabled
reposted from a story By MELANIE TROTTMAN
Employers and business groups are trying to stop an Obama administration effort that calls for federal contractors to hire a minimum number of disabled workers and could penalize those who don't by revoking their contracts.
The proposal could reshape hiring at roughly 200,000 companies that generate $700 billion a year in contracts with the federal government. They include defense contractor Lockheed Martin Corp., aircraft maker Boeing Co. and firms across the health-care, construction and information-technology industries.
Under the Labor Department plan, most firms that contract or subcontract with the federal government would be asked to have disabled people make up 7% of their work force. While the department says it wouldn't be an explicit requirement, companies that don't hit the target could have their contracts canceled or could be barred from winning future contracts until they show they are trying to meet the target.
Companies have flooded the department with complaints that the rule amounts to a first-ever government quota for hiring disabled workers that would expose them to a thicket of legal pitfalls. Some employers say there might not be enough qualified disabled workers in their fields to meet that target and that they may have to fire nondisabled workers to achieve the ratio. Others say that existing federal law actually prohibits them from asking whether a job applicant is disabled, potentially forcing firms to violate one law in order to comply with another.
"We are very concerned that the department is moving forward with what is clearly a fundamental change in longstanding policies regarding affirmative action," said Jeffrey McGuiness, president of the HR Policy Association, a trade group for human-resource executives at more than 300 of the largest private-sector U.S. companies.
The proposed changes were pushed in part by disability advocates, who say that decades-old laws intended to bring disabled people into the work force just aren't working. Technology has made it far easier for victims of illness or accident to complete work tasks.
"Often people make assumptions that people with disabilities can't do a 'real' job," said Patrick Wojahn, a public-policy analyst for the National Disability Rights Network.
The proposed contracting requirements are part of a broader federal effort aimed at making it easier for disabled people to find work, including injured war veterans. On Tuesday, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission released updated guidelines to ensure that veterans with wartime injuries such as post traumatic stress disorder and other ailments qualify for federal disability protections.
The Labor Department says the effort, disclosed in December, is necessary because 79.2% of working-age people with functional disabilities are out of the labor force entirely, compared with 30.5% of people without disabilities, a longstanding gap. Counting those who remain in the labor force, the unemployment rate for people with disabilities was 12.9% in January, compared with an unemployment rate of 8.7% for people without disabilities.
Current law encourages federal contractors to maintain a diverse work force but sets no parameters on how many jobs must go to disabled Americans.
"What gets measured gets done," said Patricia Shiu, director of the Labor Department's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. "And we're in the business of getting things done." The agency is proposing the change as an update to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
The 7% target would apply to a contractor's work force as well as subsets of workers based on factors such as their job description and wage rates. Disability advocates hope the subset requirement will ensure disabled workers aren't unfairly steered toward lower-paying jobs. The department settled on a 7% target because it estimates that 5.7% of the civilian labor force—those working or looking for work—has a disability but another 1.7% of the civilian population is disabled and, by the Labor Department's estimation, wants work but is discouraged from seeking it.
Regulators also are considering requiring that 2% of contractors' work forces be comprised of severely disabled workers, such as those with total deafness, blindness, or missing extremities.
The scope of what would constitute a disability also isn't clear since the Labor Department's proposal doesn't include a specific list. The Americans with Disabilities Act, updated in 2008, says that workers are disabled if they have a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of their major life activities. Lawyers who represent employers say that could include hundreds of possibilities from blindness to deafness to the less apparent such as asthma or mental illness.
Businesses with fewer than 50 employees and less than $50,000 in federal contracts would be exempt from the hiring changes.
Employers that don't reach the targets would be given a chance to improve compliance and would only lose contracts in "the most egregious cases" of not following the rule, Ms. Shiu said.
Business officials say it isn't that simple. "You're looking to fill a position with the best possible hire and that doesn't necessarily preclude or exclude somebody with a disability," said Joe Trauger, a vice president for human-resources policy at the National Association of Manufacturers, a trade group representing 11,000 companies.
Sonalysts Inc., an employee-owned professional-services business of 400 workers that mostly serves the Defense Department, is asking the Labor Department to scrap the proposal. The Waterford, Conn., company estimates it would spend about $120,000 a year to hire the workers, process data tracking disabled employment and pay for legal challenges it expects would result from the rule.
A Boeing spokesman said the company is studying the proposal, and Lockheed Martin declined to comment on what it told the Labor Department in response to the proposal.
FirstBank Holding Co. of Lakewood, Co., says the rule would burden the company with paperwork and reporting requirements without actually increasing the number of disabled workers it employs. "Individuals with disabilities are not even applying for our open positions," the company wrote to the Labor Department. FirstBank asked the department to scale back the proposal but favors its requirement that employers advertise job openings with specific organizations that target the disabled.
Kevan Johnson, an employment consultant with REACH of Dallas, a nonprofit that helps disabled people lead independent lives, said stronger regulations are needed because severely disabled workers are being overlooked by contractors "who think they can't do the job." Mr. Johnson said employers might not be aware of workplace accommodations they could make to enable a disabled person to do their job. "There's an education process," he said.
Some employers worry that, in seeking out disabled workers, they would end up violating the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, which they say prohibits employers from asking disability-related questions before hiring someone. There is also concern that such inquiries would make contractors vulnerable to lawsuits from people alleging their disclosures were actually used against them.
Labor's Ms. Shiu said the requirement would be legal because contractors would be inviting people to "voluntarily self-identify" a disability to improve data collection. Companies would have to invite employees to do the same through an annual, anonymous survey.
Pensioner trust funds misused for purchases
reposted from a story from Indaily's Blog
The news and reviews from www.indaily.com.au
A STATE Government department dipped into the personal trust funds of disabled pensioners to pay for equipment the department was meant to supply from its budget, the Public Advocate has revealed.
The Client Trust Fund, operated by the Department for Families and Communities, then removed the disabled clients from departmental waiting lists for the same equipment.
The situation has exposed a potential conflict of interest in how powerful government agencies can make decisions on behalf of people with disabilities without their knowledge or approval.
A Public Advocate investigation found 51 clients had purchases made on their behalf, which included 32 wheelchairs, 5 commodes, 11 walking frames, 11 electric beds, 11 slings and 12 other items.
The amount of money involved has not been disclosed.
The Client Trust Fund is a trustee service for people unable to manage their own finances because of a disability; and the Public Advocate reviews programs designed to meet the needs of mentally incapacitated persons.
The annual report of the Office of the Public Advocate said safeguards were put in place to prevent further misuse of the trust funds.
Yet the department refused to refund the money to the affected pensioners arguing "it would be difficult to identify the instances where a purchase was not reasonable".
Dignity for Disability MP Kelly Vincent said the refusal to provide refunds was "unbelievable".
"To abuse the trust of these vulnerable clients in the first place by spending their money on equipment which should have been state-supplied is unforgiveable," Ms Vincent told Indaily.
"To then refuse to refund that money to the clients after this inappropriateness was uncovered is beyond belief.
"Although I've seen hundreds of examples of the disrespect this government has for people with disabilities, the assertion that refunding this money to its rightful owners is too 'difficult' ranks among the most appalling."
The Public Advocate's report said it instigated an investigation after concerns were raised by Monika Baker from the Disability Advocacy and Complaints Service of SA.
"This Office asked for information regarding the number of occasions that client funds had been used by Disability Services to purchase equipment, including a breakdown of these purchases," the report said.
"The review looked at purchases made on behalf of the 751 clients currently living in supported accommodation. Purchases were made over several years.
"A follow-up request from this Office was that refunds be considered to individuals where it was apparent that private funds had been inappropriately used.
"We were advised that as these purchases had taken place over many years, it would be difficult to identify the instances where a purchase was not reasonable.
"The Public Advocate advised the Auditor-General of this matter, who will give audit consideration to the new equipment policy and procedure to deal with potential conflict of interest.
"In the future, there are now both internal and external safeguards in place. There is still uncertainty about some past purchases that have not been identified."
In his review of the Trust Fund, Public Advocate John Brayley
recommended that changes to the system to prevent further conflicts of responsibilities.
"There is, however, a policy argument related to this issue," Mr Brayley said.
"To avoid conflict of interest and a potential concentration of power related to decision making, it is preferable that service providers not be personal financial decision-makers for clients.
"Services already wield considerable power over their clients' lives, so to be the substitute decision maker for personal finances as well can be a problem."
Speaking to Indaily ahead of the public release of his report, Brayley said he had been using public forums to let people know about the inappropriate use of trust fund money.
"The government hasn't made people aware and it's relevant that people should be aware.
"I've been telling families so that if they are aware that their funds have been used, they might want to take action to get a refund."
The Public Advocate's report is being released today.
For Those who Think the Sexual Abuse by Catholic Priests Is Not real Read This
|Main Page Contact Us Our top stories
|This page of Catholic cases was compiled by Broken Rites Australiaresearchers and was last updated on 19 February 2012.Broken Rites Australia helps victims of church-related sex abuse to obtain justice. Since Broken Rites began operating its Australia-wide telephone hotline in 1993, we have received thousands of calls and emails about incidents of abuse. From these reports, we have built up a huge database of cases. Therefore, when someone contacts us to report abuse, it is possible that the name of the alleged offender may already be on our database. A victim will find it easier to achieve justice if our database reveals previous complaints about the same alleged offender.
Our complete database is NOT available on the internet. On this web page, we merely give a few examples of cases that have been researched by Broken Rites.
This webpage is divided into sections:
If a particular offender is not listed on this webpage, this does not mean that this person is not an offender. Many church-abuse victims remain silent for years or forever. Only a few victims have contacted the police; some victims eventually contact Broken Rites; and some victims (often unwisely) merely tell the offender's friends and colleagues (the bishop, etc) in the church. It is a wise move to contact Broken Rites first, for advice about options for obtaining justice.
Section A:
Here are some examples of criminal court cases, researched by Broken Rites Australia(since 1993), involving Catholic priests and religious brothers. Where possible, Broken Rites was present in court. Broken Rites also gave support to victims, either before or after the prosecutions. The list is not complete as some church offenders slip through the courts unnoticed.
The above names, in Section A, are confined to priests and religious brothers (including trainees). For lay teachers in church schools, see some examples in Section F, at the bottom of this page.
Section B:
As well as the above-listed criminal prosecutions, many church victims take out-of-court civilaction against the Catholic Church authorities. This can force the church to acknowledge the harm that has been done to the victim's life, thus giving the victim a sense of empowerment. Sometimes this action can force the church to give a written apology for having inflicted the offender on the victim. Perhaps, the church might even offer to reach a settlement with the victim, as the church often regards this as a cheap way of protecting the church's public image.
Here are a few examples of cases (researched by Broken Rites), in which victims could tackle the church authorities for justice.
Section C:
Section D:
Section E:
Section F:
Many victims have contacted Broken Rites about offences committed by lay teachers in Catholic schools or school youth camps.
The teachers' cases are too numerous to be all listed on this website. Here are just a few examples to demonstrate the range of cases:
The Broken Rites database contains many similar cases of teachers in church schools. Some of these are teachers of "religion", which indicates hypocrisy as well as a crime.
MONSIGNOR David Cappo has described the skyrocketing number of people in urgent need of disability services as "totally unacceptable".
Disabled fobbed off with 'nice words': Cappo
REposted from a story by: David Jean and Lauren Novak In the Adelaide Advertiser March 01, 2012 12:00AM

Monsignor Cappo, the former social inclusion commissioner, ranked finding supported accommodation for all "critical and evident risk" people as the second-most crucial element of a State Government-commissioned StrongVoices disability blueprint he completed late last year.
But Disabilities Minister Ian Hunter has not included this priority among the 16 recommendations he has so far pledged to deliver, despite data released this week showing the category one – or critical risk – waiting list has more than doubled since mid-2009.
Monsignor Cappo yesterday warned "it's money, not nice words that we need" and called on the Government to financially support each of the 34 recommendations in his report.
The Government describes category one clients as those who are at risk of homelessness or causing harm to themselves or others.
There are also 290 people on a category two, or evident risk, list. The Advertiser understands erasing the category one and two people lists – something Monsignor Cappo rates a "matter of urgency" that must happen "within one budget cycle" – will cost between $100 million and $140 million a year.
Erasing the category one list alone would cost between $60 million and $100 million.
In a written statement to The Advertiser, Monsignor Cappo urged the State Government to provide a financial response to the 120-page report it commissioned.
"The unmet demand waiting list continues to grow," he said.
"This is totally unacceptable. I hope that the social justice priorities of the State Government ensure that $50 million of new money is provided in the coming budget to address this shocking situation. And a financial plan to address all recommendations in Strong Voices is necessary.
"It is time for people with disability to be a priority in a state budget. It's money, not nice words that we need."
Public Advocate John Brayley has also weighed into the debate, calling in his 2010-11 annual report, presented to Parliament this week, for the Government to clear the waiting list immediately.
"Every day that goes on with people on this list in critical need is a day too long," he writes.
Dr Brayley said the "only acceptable target" was zero people waiting for accommodation and support services.
Mr Hunter did not specifically address The Advertiser's inquiries about the unmet needs list, but conceded disability services "needs a significant overhaul".
"That is why, in response to the Strong Voices disability blueprint, the Weatherill Government has announced major reforms to disability services, including the introduction of self-managed funding," he said, adding this gave people with a disability greater choice about the services they received.
"It will mean that the Government is no longer pouring money into the crisis end of the system, but providing more effective support where it is needed."
Julie Esposito cares for her son Anthony, 31, who has a severe intellectual disability, autism and behavioural issues.
She said Anthony had been on a waiting list for accommodation and support services for about eight years.
He was classified as a category one priority at one point but Mrs Esposito, 56, said he was downgraded to a category two because the family had not kept in regular enough contact with Disability SA.
"It seems hopeless. You just don't know if you can cope on a daily basis when there is no light at the end of the tunnel," she said.
Dignity for Disability MLC Kelly Vincent said supported accommodation was usually offered in group homes where carers lived on-site.
But hundreds of people were also waiting for in-home services like "someone to get them out of bed in the morning and help them shower".
"This is really the people who need the system the most that are being let down by the system," she said.
"Instead they're left to languish … in the `too-hard' basket," she said.
Ms Vincent called for an increase in funding to clear the waiting list and a commitment to build more accommodation.
Opposition housing and disability spokesman John Gardner said the Liberals pledged to clear the category one waiting list before the 2010 election.
He said the Labor government should commit more disability funding in the May Budget.
Communities department disability, ageing and carers director David Caudrey said spending on disability services had more than doubled from $135.4 million in 2002-03 to $286.4m in 2010-11.
The government also had committed an additional $56 million over the next four years.
"The need for disability services is increasing as the population ages," Dr Caudrey said.
"Certain disabilities are increasing in prevalence and people with disability are living longer."
Lindsay lohan you say your sober but don't know how long? Really I'm 4,945 days clean
What's drug and alcohol addiction got to do with disability you ask? I ask what hasn't it! next to morbid obesity it is the number one thing disabling our young the world over.
Lindsay Lohan as a younger actress had talent, she could play any part but I'm sorry I watched her with matt Lauer today and the one part she sucked at was lying to matt that she was clean. When Ms Lohan was asked how long since her last drink or drug she couldn't remember, I ring my drug counsellor every year to thank her, hell if you stop me in the street anytime I'll tell you to the minute, Because I'm clean and I'm alive and I'm damn proud of it and you miss lohan missed your chance to be a shining example that anything was possible with effort grit and determination.
The only reason an ex junkie can't remember how many minutes since they have used last is they never stopped, Don't bullshit a bulls hitter Lindsay, you may pass a piss test and you might fool a judge, hell any junkie on the last chance can do that with one hand behind their back and the other shooting up.Don't you get it for christ sake all you had to do was follow the plan and find a reason and if you can't find a reason to stop, then I'm sorry Whitney book a table for two Lindsay will be there soon. I found an inspiration, I wanted me back, because only when I found myself could I find my life, then and only then could I hope to find love.
Kids, teens, and strung out adults, I know you look up to the stars but Ms Lohan is a barely living very bad example. The only place to safely seek your inspiration is inside you, the universe made you with everything you need to be bloody amazing it has just been swimming in dope for so long you forgot what the hell it looks like but believe me it's there. So find it and find yourself, before a relative does on a hotel or bathroom floor colder than the tiles

What a Difference a Year Makes
Wow a year ago I was sitting In Nambour Queensland, a little town in Australia in an area called the sunshine coast.
I had lived there back in the 90's and then I was over 6ft and a fit healthy Aussie chef who thought nothing of walking 50 miles if I had to get somewhere.
This time, I was in a wheelchair for life, with a partner who worried about everything in a town with hills that makes San Francisco look flat trying to get around the hills in a manual wheelchair. When I lived there previously it wasn't a problem, and I never noticed the local disgusting attitude towards the disabled because I wasn't one.
My partner one day Knowing I used to write, told me to start venting through a blog or get a defence lawyer because my level of anger was at boiling point and even in a wheelchair with a lifetime of martial arts study under my numerous blackbelts trouble was in my future without a outlet ,and so My blog was born. We have covered the history of all this before, on January 6th the 1st anniversary, but so much good keeps coming from it. In the first 14 months I have gone from a pissed off dangerous Gimp raging against the machine, to an internationally published writer with a magazine article in march 2011 in Disability now UK magazine ,
to my first Novel "The secrets the mirror kept" being released worldwide December 15th 2011
to coming 4th in the "best medical blog on the net competition for 2011"on January 31st 2012
to being nominated and making the finals in an award for aussie living overseas who strive to make a difference in their community February 26th 2012 to being officially recognised as a journalist by the United Nations and being granted journalist credentials on February 29th .
I'm still angry folks, I'm still raging against a broken machine for some reason the world can't wrap it's brain around the fact that the disabled are people as in "we the people" so why do they not have equal rights and even worse they can't seem to work out how to stop child abuse and molestation and to teach men to keep their damn hands to themselves when the marriage vows said in sickness and in health the sickness part was not a do it yourself suggestion it was meant to be romantic so this published author and accredited journalist from 63 Alexander ave Campbelltown Adelaide Australia has to stop and have a smoko because this is all a bit too much but don't worry I'm not stopping just breathing , not drowning just waving.
Chardon Ohio! Tell the Grieving Parents that Bullying is Harmless, Someone Bullied that Kid and he Brought a Gun and Death to a School
"Bullying is a rite of passage! I survived it and I'm okay" "Everyone goes through it, it doesn't need laws to stop it" these useless utterings and others By law makers and politicians and school district officials around the world are cold comfort today as parents bury innocent children who were having a free breakfast at Chardon high in Ohio 48 hours ago then 10 minutes later they were being shot and their lives cut short BULLYING MUST STOP.
Until parents of the bullies start parenting, and schools get their heads out of their collective asses and actually pay attention to the activities of the students in their care children will keep dying, keep being murdered and committing suicide.
We have come a long way from the days when the only thing that died in high school was your hopes of dating the cheer leader or making first string on the football team, too many of our youngest and brightest are dying in a war we shouldn't be in once they have graduated no one should die trying to graduate.
Mr Obama, Mr Cuomo and all leaders here in the United States and around the world get off your asses and stop the symptom and put anti bullyng laws inplace,because once the illness is full blown bullying cause's death and there is no pill
Posted on Feb 29, 2012 at 08:49am IST The story below is the latest update on the case reposted from the source listed
Ohio school shooting: death toll rises to 3
Prosecutors identified the suspect as TJ Lane and said he has admitted to taking a knife and a .22-caliber pistol into the cafeteria at Chardon High School in a town 35 miles (56 km) east of Cleveland on Monday and firing 10 rounds.
Students Demetrius Hewlin and Russell King Jr, 17, were both declared dead on Tuesday from wounds suffered in the incident, according medical examiners. Another student, Daniel Parmertor, 16, died on Monday.
Prosecutors told a judge in Geauga County Juvenile Court that Lane told them he had selected his victims randomly. In his court appearance, Lane was ordered held in detention pending the filing of formal charges. The judge gave prosecutors until Thursday to file charges.
Lane will be bound over for trial as an adult if probable cause is found, said Geauga County Prosecuting Attorney David Joyce.
"As was stated earlier in court today, he chose his victims at random," Joyce said. "This is not about bullying, this is not about drugs, this is someone who is not well."
The judge ordered restrictions on what prosecutors and defense attorneys could disclose publicly in the case.
One student remained hospitalized with wounds from the attack while another was released from a hospital as the town prepared to hold a vigil to honor the victims later on Tuesday. At the high school, students spent the day huddling, talking and placing red ribbons around the grounds.
The incident marked the latest shooting at a US school. The deadliest school shooting in the United States was a 2007 massacre at Virginia Tech University in which 33 people were killed. The deadliest high school shooting claimed the lives of 12 students and a teacher in 1999 at Columbine High School in Colorado.
Chardon, the seat of Geauga County, is an affluent, semi-rural town with a population of about 5,000, according to the US Census Bureau.
Authorities said they expected to release the results of an autopsy on Parmertor later on Tuesday, and that autopsies may be performed on Hewlin and King on Wednesday.
King had no brain activity when he arrived at MetroHealth Medical Center and was declared brain dead, the medical examiner's office said.
"We ask that Russell be remembered for who he was, a strong boy with a big heart. He will be missed by many. He was so full of life and we are honoring his wishes to help others by donating his organs," King's family said in a statement.
Hewlin's family confirmed his death in a statement saying: "Demetrius was a happy young man who loved life and his family and friends."
"We will miss him very much but we are proud that he will be able to help others through organ donation," it said.
Previously, students and local media had identified Lane as a student at a school for at-risk youth. His family said they were in shock over the events and asked for privacy.
"The family wanted me to convey to the citizens of Geauga County and Northeastern Ohio that the family is devastated by this most recent event," Lane's lawyer Bob Farinacci told local WKYC news before the hearing.
"This is something that could never have been predicted. TJ's family has asked for some privacy while they try to understand how such a tragedy could have occurred and while they mourn this terrible loss for their community."
Farinacci represented Lane at the detention hearing, which was attended by Lane's grandfather and two of his aunts.
The school district was closed on Tuesday and will not reopen fully for classes until Friday.
Chardon schools Superintendent Joseph Bergant has praised the actions of teachers, who he said had acted quickly to protect the students.
Chardon Police Chief Tim McKenna did not disclose a motive on Tuesday for the shooting, which happened on Monday morning while students were studying and eating breakfast.
Some witnesses told local media the shooter appeared to target a table where a student who had started dating his former girlfriend was seated with friends.
Lane's lawyer described the suspect as a "good kid" who had never been in trouble and had impressive grades.
"He's a sophomore. He's been doubling up on his classes with the intent of graduating this May. He pretty much sticks to himself but does have some friends and has never been in trouble over anything that we know about," Farinacci said

Families have to tighten their belts to stay afloat. For example, last year, our family spent an average of $6.53 per person per day on food. Our 2014 target is $5.55. We've also put our four teenagers on a budget. Rather than pay for their clothes and extras like an occasional movie or McDonald's, we're giving them a monthly allowance and incentives to earn more through a list of chores. They'll decide how to spend their money—clothes, fun, whatever, it's up to them. This will help mom and dad stay on budget in 2014 while teaching our kids to manage money.
Now, consider the state of the U.S. economy. Some important facts: one in seven Americans is receiving food stamps; the unemployment rate that includes long-term discouraged workers has climbed steadily to over 20 percent, even though the official rate has fallen to seven percent; Obamacare continues to cause businesses to hold off on hiring and expanding; trillion-dollar deficits are the new normal; inflation calculated the way it was in 1980 is more than nine percent (not the two percent currently being reported); and the Federal Reserve is doubling down on the monetary blunders that led to the 2008 crash and the Great Recession.
That is the truth about America today. We have to come to grips with the reality that, as our 40th president was fond of saying, "Government is not the solution to the problem, government is the problem." I'd like to add that "We the people" are in charge of our government.
So, let's return to my daughter's question. Will we experience a depression in my lifetime or hers?
"Absolutely," I told her, "if our federal government doesn't change its ways." But, there's hope. There's always hope. One way to turn America in the right direction is to tell our kids the truth about what they face. After all, my daughter will be voting in two years.

[Pre-Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Lyric Meaning
This entire song is Gaga's rebellion against how the media portrays her. It is an anthem of strength against the judgmental negativity thrust upon her.
She is confident in her talents. She feels good with where her creativity is leading her.
She is Lady Gaga and she is adorable and strong.
But she also knows she is human. Being human she is allowed to fall and make those mistakes.
But the media world doesn't let her be human. One slip up and it's the next cover story. Each mistake blown out of proportion as if it's the most important latest breaking news. Which is really frustrating.
Gaga as a strong female refuses to let the media knock her down over something like her weight for instance.
So when the media said she was fat and needed to lose weight.
She responded:
DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH MY BODY is Gaga saying
You can have my body
Because honestly
Take my body she says, but you can't have my heart and mind.
The media can say whatever they want about her body, but she refuses to give them her heart and mind. She gives that love and incredible gift only to her fans.
There are already so many battles in the world. Battles that each of us has to fight personally on our own.
Don't let something so petty as the weight of her body become the headline because you can do what you want with her body, but her voice and influence has saved lives and is changing the world we live in to be a better place and you can't ever take that away from her.
Spread love and positivity!

I reply to this question even it is over one year old since I had the same problems recently. I described how I solved it in German in this article:ios 7 E-Mail-Client mit T-Online. In short the trick is to set an extra password for external email clients (like Outlook or the Apple email client) in the menue of the email center ("E-Mail-Center"), which has its own password - the same as that for the customer center ("Kundencenter").
Set the SSL-decryption setting to "on". Use the following ports:
inbox server: secureimap.t-online.de, Port: 993, safety: SSL/TLS,
outbox server: securesmtp.t-online.de, Port: 587, safety: SSL/TLS.
These settings should be found automatically during the setup of the email account.
And I recommend to set the storage time for emails in the email center from 90 days (default) to "never delete".

Persona 3: Minato and Thanatos by MadamNyxWatch
©2011-2016 MadamNyx
A drawing I started when Persona 3 first came out. As you probably noticed it's not even close to being done, but that's because I ran out of the blue color that's throughout this whole drawing. Another thing that might end up probably be pointed out is Minato's size, I drew him a bit big. . . .>.< This drawing was drawn on an 18'x24" piece of paper.

In the future, she would like to have her own store where she could be able to generate more income for she and her family. She will invest the granted loan in the purchases of diverse products such as pineapple, apples, and oranges for her juice stand.
María is very grateful to Kiva and Edaprospo for the help they've provided. She says goodbye with a big hug and with the promise that she will meet all of her goals.
Additional Information
About EDAPROSPOEDAPROSPO seeks to use micro-credit to foster productive commercial activity for the sake of economic and social development within vulnerable urban and rural sectors traditionally neglected by commercial banks. By offering innovative products such as technical education loans and microfinance groups for young people, EDAPROSPO helps disadvantaged Peruvians lift themselves out of poverty.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

This is the first time I bought an Everyday Minerals brush. I have to say this is an excellent brush! The bristles are so soft and dense. I use it to blend out eyeshadow and it works great, and feels very great on the skin.
Amazing brush!

If you would like to see the full list results, refer to this google doc.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Giantbomb Community GotY for 2013, we had a pretty big turnout this time around.
The game's people liked this year tended to be much more spread out, with much less consensus on what games to include on their lists and what place on their list they should be.
The scores underneath each game's description show the percentage distribution of scores. IE in the first spot is percentage of people who scored it #1, so on and so forth.
In addition, in the comments directly beneath this post, I will be putting an "alternative" interpretation of the list results.
Gianbomb Community 2013 Game of the Year
Bioshock Infinite is the Giantbomb Community's 2013 GotY! Bringing with it not a complete lack of controversy, it nevertheless demonstrated phenomenal world-building and story telling.
25% 20% 12% 12% 7% 5% 4% 4% 3% 3%
The Last of Us comes in at second. A narrative story told exceptionally well with character interaction that feels real and compelling. It's funny how the top two games this year are about a man protecting a younger girl companion at his side.
42% 21% 10% 8% 4% 3% 2% 1% 3% 1%
Considering that GTAV is one of the top 20 best selling games of all time, it should be no real surprise it would take a spot on this year's GotY list. A tremendous amount of content and attention to detail places it firmly in 3rd.
12% 13% 16% 17% 8% 7% 8% 6% 3% 5%
Tomb Raider successfully manages to revisit Lara Croft in a more modern context, bringing a mature and well-realized vision of Lara and her world than can be said existed prior.
7% 10% 13% 10% 9% 12% 8% 10% 10% 4%
What?! An indie game? Some total unknown whatsit? 5th place what are we mad? No, it's true. Gone Home managed to impress and impact in its little time spent with the gamer than many other games have managed in the course of tens of hours.
10% 13% 15% 9% 10% 8% 8% 9% 7% 8%
The Saints Row humor still charms, and while for many the new installment was too much of a retread of Saints Row the Third, for others that was exactly what was needed.
4% 14% 8% 10% 19% 9% 9% 10% 8% 4%
7. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
There are very few games that mean so much to a person's nostalgia as the Legend of Zelda series, and when the game released successfully appeals to that emotion it's a tremendous success. When that game is good even on its own rights? Well, that's when you know you have something really special.
16% 14% 13% 18% 12% 4% 8% 6% 2% 3%
8. Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
If you thought after Assassin's Creed III that the AC series was in murky shallows, you would have found few who would disagree. Ubisoft has managed to completely dispel that fear with the release of Black Flag and brought a renewed interest to a series and sailed it into fresh waters.
8% 12% 11% 15% 15% 10% 10% 6% 3% 5%
Fire Emblem appeals to an uncommon itch and it's no surprise that with the release of a new game its fans get excited. It is a surprise when people other than the fans are excited, and in the case of Awakening, the Fire Emblem team managed to make a game that is strategic, personal and dramatic on all fronts.
12% 15% 16% 14% 6% 8% 12% 5% 2% 4%
10. Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
Brad was right.
4% 7% 11% 5% 15% 11% 10% 12% 9% 11%

Russellville-Shawneetown TrailEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
- This trail runs from Russellville, Kentucky to Shawneetown, Illinois.
- It was a branch off of the Nashville-Ohio Falls Trail that ran from Nashville, Tennessee to Shawneetown, Illinois and important port on the Ohio River.
- The trail from Russellville was a route followed by settlers from Kentucky and other parts of the upper south to Illinois and other parts of the upper plains.
Shawneetown, Illinois
- Shawneetown was an important port on the Ohio located about 40 miles down stream from present day Evansville, Indiana.
- It served after the Revolution, as an important United States government administrative center for the Northwest Territory. Shawneetown and Washington, D.C., share the distinction of being the only towns chartered by the United States government.
- Old Shawneetown, a banking center, played a role in providing capital to build the western frontier.
Russellville, Kentucky
- It is located about 20 miles west of Bowling Green, Kentucky.
- Between the arrival of first settlers around 1790 and the town's incorporation in 1798, Russellville was known variously as Cook's Station, Logan Court House, Rogues' Harbour.
- Settlers decided on the name Russellville to honor war hero General William Russell. It is the county seat of Logan County, one of Kentucky's original counties.

Anti-SB 1070 Billboard on Camelback Near Third Street by Brave New Foundation
Despite the fact that District Court Judge Susan R. Bolton ripped out most of SB 1070's spine on July 28, Sheriff Joe Arpaio's still doing his anti-Hispanic dragnets. And if other law enforcement agencies in Sand Land don't have the carte blanche they would have had under an un-enjoined 1070, this recent video of a Tucson Police Department turnover to the U.S. Border Patrol demonstrates that Latinos are still being pulled over and transferred to federal gendarmes.
Plus, 1070 remains very much alive, kind of like Jason in the Friday the 13th film series. Just can't kill that monster, even when you lop off crucial body parts.
Which is one reason the California non-profit Brave New Foundation has just put up this billboard at Camelback Road and Third Street, near by SunUp Brewery, on the north side of the street.
I've yet to swing by and eyeball it myself, as it was posted this morning, but BNF sent along the above pic, and folks are telling me they've already driven past the stark message, which reads, "Have your papers ready -- Racial profiling just ahead."
BFN's communications director Martha de Hoyos tells me the ad cost around $4,000, and will be up for around four weeks. After that, BFN will decide whether or not to maintain the billboard.
BFN is a non-profit producer of social justice films, headed up by Robert Greenwald, the maker of such documentaries as Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers and Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price.
De Hoyos says the billboard was designed and funded through BFN's project Cuentame, which has close to 40,000 members on Facebook.
Kudos to BFN and Cuentame on the billboard. Not only will it get drivers thinking, it's also sure to tick off the nativists in town. You know like neo-Nazi hugging state Senator Russell Pearce, SB 1070's primary pimp. And that alone is worth the some $4K spent.

- Nice Product Review by K Hafen
Value Quality Price
Heavy duty, solid piece of equipment. Easy to use, heavy enough to dig into solid soil base. Pulled with my 500cc UTV, wouldn't want to use anything smaller of would have trouble pulling at full depth. Did a wonderful job discing a very hard surface and then smoothed out with the cultipacker.

- Solid piece of equipment Review by P. McGinnis
Price Value Quality
After three weeks of waiting since I ordered my Disc/Culti packer it finally arrived. No owners manual came with the item. Aside from that it wasn't too hard to figure out how it worked. Hooked it up to my ATV and took it for a trial run. Disked/packed approx. 1/2 acre in one hour. Had to go over the same area a few times adjusting the depth of the disc to get the hang of things. This is a solid piece of equipment. Having read several reviews on this Disc/Culti Packer I was convinced that my Suzuki 400 would be adequate for towing the disc. Just barely. I'm now looking for a larger (500cc-750cc) ATV. Better to have too much power than not enough.
I would recommend this product for small disking jobs around the house and garden. Would probably work on medium sized food plots as well.

- Great product I have had other Disc and they were very sub standard compared to this one, works just like the big ones with a tractor. Review by Glenn
Quality Price Value
I finally got a chance to try my Tarter disc. I spent several weeks researching and trying to figure out what the best one and I think it's the one I bought. It works great I bought the one with the cultipacker and I think that is the only way to go the extra weight makes the disc work well.

The food is excellentby on 09/08/2010
The food is excellent and not only that, the prices were very reasonable. I'm returning soon. ...I also order food and is always on time and warm. The salsa and chips are great !
Good food / Bad customer serviceby jitta156 on 02/03/2009
Delivery was advised 1 hour delivery time, which was fine. Received the wrong order, called them at 815pm. Spoke with the same woman who helped take order. First she verified with me what I had ordered and what was delivered. She asked if we wanted to keep what they brought or wanted our order made again. Advised them we would like what we ordered. Then I receive a call at 845pm, this time from a man. He implied that we did receive the right order, advised him what we ordered and what was actually delivered. They called again and advised they will trade with what they brought over and the new correct ordered. Which I was fine with we didn't need to keep the wrong order. The correct order came at 9:30pm.
Riquisimo!!by texmexican on 09/13/2008

My cousin Joe's son, Joe 3, decided after a brief stint as a city reporter for a small town newspaper that he wanted to go into a career with greater potential. So he went back to school and got a doctorate in philosophy. I believe his father best expressed his feelings at this choice when he opened a newspaper to the want ads and declared, "Do you see an ad saying, 'Wanted: Doctor of Philosophy for high paying job.' "
Despite my cousin's concerns, we apparently need philosophers because the world continues to be a complicated place. Despite what some might believe, not all is writ large in black and white. The amount of gray area in between fills the universe of our minds.
I recently heard from a reader who posed this question to me. How should we regard good that comes from something we consider bad?
At one extreme this begs the question that if Hitler developed a cure for cancer using unwilling human subjects who suffered and died to produce the cure, would we be ethically obligated to shun that cure? Or would we be ethically obligated to use it to end other human suffering while admitting its source was obscene?
In Alaska we are constantly confronted with a much milder version of this question. It is generally accepted that oil companies are the engines fueling our economy and they can do no wrong. There are some, though, who view the oil companies as despoilers of the last pristine wilderness left on earth. No matter which view you subscribe to, you need only look around the state to know that the oil companies have tried to be good neighbors. They fund charitable causes of every ilk. They are some of the first to sign on for any worthy event. They buy tables at auctions for the library, they fund scholarships for rural kids, they are on the front lines of every walk/race/hop/skip and jump-athon we can invent.
Do they do all that for altruistic purposes? I think they might do some of it out of a sense of communal obligation to a society in which their presence looms so large. But they are businesses and what they do, they do to enhance their business. So all these charitable endeavors probably have some bottom line objective. If you doubt this, let me ask you a question. Do you really think that Shell or BP will be funding charitable programs here when they and our oil are gone?
So if you consider Big Oil bad, how do you view the good they do here? If that good is coming from something you consider bad, do you accept it and just shrug or does it keep you awake at night wondering if you've just sold your soul for the cost of 100 more meals at Bean's Cafe?
The Pebble Project is about to cause us to once again revisit this thorny question. For many, the Pebble Project is evil writ large -- a company that wants to endanger the pristine waters that supply one of Alaska's most famous products. But they are also underwriting a full week's educational residency here in Anchorage by one of the world's finest jazz bands.
Are they doing this to try and buy some goodwill? Of course they are. Does this change what they want to do at Pebble? Of course it doesn't. So if you think the Pebble Project is the answer to the unemployment and economic woes of the Bristol Bay area, this program merely serves to confirm your belief in corporate goodness. But if you think the Pebble Project is inherently bad and your kid is in that part of the school district where this band will spend a week, do you let your kid participate? Does the good coming from something you view as bad cause you to think twice about letting your child be part of it?
My cousin Joe was wrong. His son's profession is greatly needed in today's world as we try to work our way through questions like this. Of course, his son will never make a lot of money. But philosophers find their reward is usually not monetary. It's the ultimate effect they have on history. Which, as my cousin Joe will all too willingly point out, does not buy groceries.

We're a family farm in the Hilltowns of Western Massachusetts, where we landed 15 years ago after leaving Maine for my husband's job in public broadcasting. Our site has always been a farm, historically of much larger acreage with large barns and a silo, but never in good repair. The scrappy 1843 farmhouse has been expanded many times, and we cringe to think of the underlying structural makeup. Our fields are only suitable for pasture, but the 7-stall modular horse barn was enough to lure us (me) here in the beginning.
I added horses within 2 months of our arrival, a story in itself, then our son requested chickens … years later, a day-long Joel Salatin session at a NOFA conference and a few CISA annual meetings with the farmers, and Dirigo Farm was born (Dirigo is the Maine state motto and means "I lead," even if we're only learning).
We've updated "the little barn" and much of the fencing, converted pastures close to the house to vegetable gardens, added permanent and mobile chicken coops, built a run-in shed for the horses and acquired 20 acres of pasture and forest across the road. We've even managed to hay two fields the last few years with some renovated equipment and generous farmer neighbors.
Soon we had three horses, were selling eggs, had a forestry plan for the woodlands, and every conference or class would yield a dozen new ideas for what we could do — from livestock, to mushrooms, to cut flowers and herbs. I had always wanted to learn to spin, so was set on sheep, until I took a dairy goat class at a NOFA session and decided friendly animals you could lead were preferable. Since I'm on the farm full time, I also realized my need for the daily routine that herd animals might not require.
After goat breed research that spring, we acquired Nubian goats and a Pygmy buck with intentions to breed for Kinders, a dual purpose meat/dairy breed that started in Washington state and hadn't quite made it to New England. Our first Kinder kids were born on 2011, a doe and a buck, along with numerous Nubians as we grew and refined our herd. In 2014 we purchased Kinder breeding stock from Wisconsin, where the breed is more established and had our first Kinder kids, along with Nubian kids this spring.
I'm now in my 6th season milking, and make a variety of fresh and aged cheeses (Camembert, Valencay, Parmesan, Blue) and Goat's milk soap. I'd misunderstood the laws around Raw Milk sales for VERY small farms, and now have a much better understanding of the regulations surrounding Grade A dairy and cheese operations. My research has led me to many great people with common goals (and frustrations) — and I'm still convinced there is a way to make micro dairying work for our farm.

HP has officially announced the all in one HP Envy Rove 20. First Sony released the Tap 20, Lenovo tagged along with its Horizon and now HP has come up with three new gadgets. It's an all in one touch screen that you can actually grab and carry around anywhere from room to room. It's a tablet PC with a 20 inch touch screen. An added advantage is its push button at the back which releases a hinge so you don't have to open the stand with your hand. This spring-loaded frame folds flat in the frame behind. It weighs 11.86 pounds which can be considered portable but at the sometime it's a half pound heavier than the Sony's Tap 20. Screen resolution is 1080p which is extremely smooth allowing you to operate it as more of a tablet or a twenty first century board game machine.

Hated it.
I found this to be very orange on my skin.
It is a warm shade and I do not see how this could be used for contouring but maybe more for warming up the face.
Personally I did not care for this at all.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
This bronzer is a great bronzer and for the price even better. I have a fair complexion and this bronzer does not make it look muddy or the orange and the color payoff it really good!! It is a good bronzer for most skin tones and the formula is a texture this bronzer applies well and easy to blend. Check it out
Age: 19-24
Skin: Acne-prone, Other, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
I never used bronzer before this one because every one i tried made me look muddy or orange or had way too much shimmer. This one is PERFECT. I have fair skin, and it looks good on me with or without a tan. I love that it doesn't have all this glitter and shimmer. It is the perfect color - not too brown and not too orange. FINALLY, how can you say no to a product that is so cheap!
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
A really good bronzer for warming up the face and adding a natural sunkissed contour. However, I would not use it for straight up contouring.. It's too warm.
It definitely doesn't show up orange on my face which I know a lot of people claim it does. Perhaps it's because of my already warm toned skin?
The packaging is cheap but really sturdy and for only $3 I can't complain.
All in all, it's a complete bargain.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Very Dry, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Hazel
This has quickly become my favourite bronzer of all time. It's one of the only bronzers I've ever tried that actually adds WARMTH to my skin rather than just making my face look orange/red. I've heard people compare this to Benefit's HOOLA bronzer, but from trying both of them myself I can definitely say that they are completely different in colour. Sunny is very warm toned whereas Hoola is quite neutral toned (I LOVE hoola for contouring!). I would definitely not recommend Sunny for contouring unless you have VERY warm toned skin, however as an all over bronzer it's absolutely amazing, plus it's dirt cheap.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Very Oily, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Red, Wavy, Coarse
Eyes: Blue
I swear, there's so many products I want to give 3.5 lippies but end up giving them 4 since A) it's not possible and B) they're a steal, so I rather round up. This is one of them. This stuff is dirt cheap! So I think I will make sure to always keep one handy, whether it's in my purse, traveling, or an apocalypse. It's pigmented and blends easily. I wouldn't call it buttery smooth but it's definitely not chalky. I bought this after I tried NYX bronzer and didn't like the reddish tones in it. This sunny bronzer definitely can pull orange if you're not careful. This bronzer looks great when I'm pale but a little too orange when I'm tan. I wouldn't use this as a contour but rather a bronzer to give warmth to the face; around the temples and lightly in the hollow of cheeks. Overall I'd buy it again but I will be looking for a bronzer a little more brown/cool toned.
Age: 44-55
Skin: Combination, Fair, Cool
Hair: Blond, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Green
I am fair (NW15-20) and I have a NARS duo of Laguna/Orgasm but Laguna is too dark for my skin, and the shimmer bothers me. So I was looking for a bronzer that wouldn't break the bank but would look natural. I don't really see orange on my skin like some of the other reviewers. On me, it actually picks up the pink in my skin and looks a tad pinkish brown. Sort of like a slight burn that is turning tan. The packaging is very cheap plastic and it is difficult to snap the case shut. It's not great quality but I didn't expect that it would be for under $5.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
Almost perfect dupe for Hoola Bronzer. But be careful because this is kinda orange. But so far i like it plus this is cheap.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
It goes on nicely, is cheap and the packaging is nice but the color seems too orange to me.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Oily, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
I understand the hype of this product!
PROS: affordable, looks natural, it makes my skin look soft, buildable. It just gives your skin a beautiful color!
CONS: you only get a little bit of product, the packaging is a bit cheap but I can't complain cuz it's pretty inexpensive
