New degree bridges cultures, 'knowledge gap' for teachers
An innovative new degree at BGSU will address the "international knowledge gap" by preparing educators to effectively teach an increasingly diverse group of students, and at the same time prepare those students to be successful in an increasingly internationalized world.
BGSU's College of Education and Human Development has responded to the problem by creating the master of arts degree in cross-cultural and international education (MACIE).
"There is a pressing need for this," said Dr. Patty Kubow, educational foundations and inquiry (EDFI) and one of the program's founders. "The international knowledge gap has been identified as one of today's most urgent problems in education. American students lack awareness of international issues. In fact, a recent educational study reported that 25 percent of college-bound students could not identify the body of water separating the United States from Japan."
The only one of its kind in the region, the MACIE program is designed to meet the needs of classroom teachers who plan to stay in the classroom, as well as people who will not be teaching in the traditional classroom but are nevertheless involved in educational outreach to disparate groups. In either case, program graduates will not only be able to teach but also to help make their organizations more globally aware.
The degree's designers, Kubow and EDFI colleague Dr. Peggy Booth (along with former EDFI faculty member Alexander Sidorkin), chose to make the degree a master of arts instead of a master of education to emphasize its focus on providing the broad knowledge base future educators will need when working with other cultures in some way.
The program builds on the existing strengths of the faculty, who have extensive international research and teaching experience and speak 10 languages among them.
"We define cross-cultural and international education as an examination of education from diverse perspectives in an international context," Kubow said. "It encompasses social, educational, cultural and economic factors and is a much more holistic approach."
MACIE students will take core classes in cultural studies in education, comparative education, and cross-cultural human development and learning from Drs. Awad Ibrahim, Kubow and Booth, respectively. The interdisciplinary program also allows students to choose from numerous courses in other colleges that contribute to the cross-cultural and international theme.
"We have designed the program to assist graduate students in different ways depending on what their goals are for international education," Booth said.
Classroom teachers gain insight, globalize curriculum
For classroom teachers who intend to stay in the classroom, the program will equip them to deal with the growing number of students from around the world who have come to the United States—and to enhance their American students' global knowledge.
"The population is becoming more diverse by the day," not just in national background but in social strata of immigrants as well, Booth said. With the influx of highly skilled workers from Japan related to automobile and other manufacturing, many children come from families with high educational expectations. Others are from low-skilled families, on academic exchanges or are political refugees. "For example, there's a big population of Somalis in Columbus now," Booth pointed out.
In addition to understanding students from other countries, the teachers will learn to relate to students from under-represented cultures within the United States, such as Native Americans or migrant workers. "Our teachers have to have a better understanding of their students' lives, homes and neighborhoods," Booth said.
Gaining cross-cultural sensitivity is a key goal for the program's enrollees, Kubow added. "I really believe teachers teach what they are. You can't project what you are not."
Teachers with the MACIE degree will be able to help internationalize their schools' educational practices and curricula by incorporating more diverse and different cultures into the course of study, whether those cultures are from outside the United States or inside.
International students are encouraged to enroll in the program for mutual benefit. "The international students will enrich our American students," Kubow said.
Also, "we are attracting students from countries that desire to join the global market," Booth said. In fact, the first student to enroll in the MACIE program is Annette de Nicker, from South Africa.
A grade 12 history teacher and head of her school's Department of Human and Social Sciences, History and Geography, de Nicker said what attracted her to the MACIE program was its cross-cultural and international aspect.
"While apartheid is officially over, the country is still very much segregated," she said. "People continue to be intolerant of other cultures and other ethnic backgrounds. I hope to use the experience and the knowledge gained through this degree to help bring acceptance of diversity. It saddens me that some of my students still think in terms of 'us' and 'them.'"
She said she looks forward to the challenge of implementing the goals of MACIE by serving as an effective leader in the internationalization of schools and communities in South Africa, and hopes to serve as a constructive facilitator of the new South African education policies, which are infused with cross-cultural sensitivities but not always effectively implemented and practiced in educational environments.
"In a cross-cultural curriculum, there's less of a focus on Western European history," Booth explained. "The teachers learn to place their specialty in a global context."
"I feel strongly that a teaching professional in the 21st century has to have this international perspective," Kubow said. "It enhances their professionalism.
"Only a few of the top 50 colleges in the United States require coursework in non-Western history for students who are preparing to teach history," she went on. "Cross-cultural education enables students to see the connections between the issues.
"One of our goals is for our students to see the relationship between education and globalization," Kubow added. "With the widening economic gap, globalization has the power to unite but also to be divisive. It's important for classroom teachers to understand both the barriers and the benefits, to understand the relationships between the developed and developing people of the world and to understand how people in the rest of the world see events through their own historical background."
Teachers outside the classroom gain skills
In addition to classroom teachers, "we're very open to people who are not traditional classroom teachers but who are involved in education in another manner," Booth said.
These might include returning Peace Corps volunteers or nongovernmental organization employees, people interested in doing extension work with adults for literacy or agriculture, or who are involved in public health campaigns such as AIDS education. Museum work is another area that would fit the MACIE degree—"anyone who is in education but in a nonlicensed, nontraditional school environment can customize the degree to their needs," she said.
Choosing a focus
After their core classes, MACIE students will choose an interdisciplinary, cross-cultural focus, in gender constructs, international development or poverty and marginalization, or in another area of their choice. "If students know what they want to do or what region of the country or the world they want to work in, they can develop their own theme," Booth said.
The program's foreign language component was implemented to help educators see "how language influences society and vice versa," Booth said. "The process of studying a language also creates cognitive structures important to understanding how someone else might think when learning or teaching in another language."
MACIE graduates will also leave knowing how to conduct and evaluate research. "We want them to learn to be educated consumers of other people's research and the information they will need to utilize in their professional lives," Booth said.
Learning through experience
A requirement that sets MACIE apart from other programs is the cross-cultural internship, either in another country or in the United States, working with a group that is under-represented or culturally different from the student's own. "Other programs suggest an internship but don't require it," Kubow said. MACIE students can benefit from the extensive international contacts of the program's faculty in setting up their own experience, she added.
With Gender Constructs across Cultures as her interdisciplinary focus for MACIE, de Nicker said she is certain her internship at the Women's Center will significantly enhance her education and understanding of domestic violence, sexual assault, environment, reproductive rights, and sexual identity issues. Though the extent may vary, "many of the issues, such as women's rights, reproductive freedom and sexual assault, are the same from country to country. I think there are similar problems and obstacles, and I hope that through what I learn here, I can make a difference."

I think when a star has established herself as an actress, hindi naman siya "bold star of yesteryears." Meaning Elizabeth Oropesa and Jacklyn are exempted, as, after all, their films play to good audiences and win good reviews abroad. And, uh lechOn 420, your wit doesn't quite cut in this case, the lead star of "Dabiana" just died a month or so ago, from complications of diabetes.
Although, I must hasten to add in a separate post, that at the rate she's going, and despite an acting award or two, Rosanna Roces might just end up as nothing but a bold star of uh yesteryears.

Import, export,
Lyric Meaning
Rocky doesn't necessarily do these drugs, but frequently mentions how he used to import and distribute them in Harlem. Rocky seeks to elevate himself from the crack heads and other users on the street by referring to himself as a supplier or someone who would actually be making money from these drugs. The message of making lots of money importing and exporting drugs fits with Rocky's message of making money i.e. Peso

text: Is there any way to predict how two chemicals will react or is it up to experimentation to discover that? Take salt + water for example: NaCl + H2O -> HCl + NaOH The equation is balanced, but obviously when mixing salt and water you don't get hydrochloric acid...you get salt water... So how can you determine how compounds will react and would there be a way to induce the above reaction? Sorry, just started learning chemistry like 15 minutes ago (to try and learn about chemiluminescence), and I apologize is this is a really newbie question.

Not-guilty plea in Syria-related passport case
SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say a California man charged with lying on a passport application so he could travel to Syria to join a terrorist group has pleaded not guilty.
U.S. attorney's spokesman Thom Mrozek says 20-year-old Adam Dandach entered the plea Monday in federal court in Santa Ana on two charges, each carrying a maximum five-year sentence. A trial is scheduled for Sept. 9.
Federal authorities say Dandach told them he was traveling to Syria to pledge his alliance to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.
Dandach was stopped at an airport July 2 attempting to board a flight to Turkey after he applied for an expedited passport, claiming he had accidentally thrown his out.
Authorities say Dandach's mother hid his original passport when he told her about his proposed trip.

will last forever if you use it gently
Posted by Reviewer1024808 on Aug 18, 2011
The crystal will last forever if you treat it gently. If you drop it, it may break. If it breaks it will be very rough and uncomfortable to use on your skin. My husband likes it because he can take it on the airplane in his carry-on luggage without worrying about carrying liquid. The plastic container is pretty flimsy and will break long before the crystal does, even if you don't drop it.

Respond to Review of Nice Slice
by srlonisshumate
Review: will start this review with this...we were staying in Providence for five nights and we ended up eating Nice Slice four of those nights (plus delicious breakfasts of cold pizza the mornings after). This was not due to the lack of vegan options in Providence, but due to the fact that the food was AMAZING and the staff was even AMAZING-ER! My wife and I had the vegan sausage special (add vegan chikn and foni-roni) the first two nights and the vegan cheesesteak pizza the last two nights. Both were excellant NY style pizzas. The sausage special has their delicious red sauce and the mock sausage and vegan cheese were tasty (as were the Chikn and foni-roni which we added for only $2.00 per topping). The vegan cheesesteak was just as delicious with a ranch sauce, onions, red and green peppers, mushrooms, and the best mock steak I have ever tasted. Plus the crust was thin, crisp, and had a wonderful flavor of its own. The kiddos got the non vegan cheese and said it was one of the best they have ever had. They also loved the red sauce and the crust. Two nights we ate there and two we took it back to the hotel and the staff was super quick and crazy friendly during each visit. We sat outside the two times we stayed and watched all the action on Thayer St which added to the great experience. The two times we got carry out, the friendly staff on the phone quoted 15 minutes and it was always ready when we got there. To sum it up...we ate EIGHT delicious pizzas in 4 nights and had 4 GREAT staff interactions. Plus all of the pizzas are inexpensive for the eight large ny style slices that you get. They also have a great beverage selection. Happy cow won't allow a 5 cow rating because Nice Slice is not veggie only, but it DEFINITELY DESERVES AT LEAST FIVE! Don't wait...go NOW!

The first daughter rides to the rescue of fourth graders. That's good news, because they need all the help they can get. Jenna Bush can dress Texas-style in cowboy boots, belts and buckles, but it's what's under her Stetson that will make the difference.
Jenna wants to teach at a school in the nation's capital. He's pleased that she wants to be a teacher, the president told me the other night at a Christmas reception at the White House, but if he knows which school Jenna has chosen, he isn't letting on. Among her available choices is a charter school where 90 percent of the children are from low-income families.
Coinciding with news of Jenna's career ambitions, which like everything else about a First Family is big news in Washington, is a new study that shows how American fourth and eighth graders lag far behind their peers in other countries. This suggests that we're not preparing the next generation to compete in fields where major technological advances are made. Neither the president nor anyone else is pleased about that.
The Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study, undertaken every four years, found that fourth- and eighth-grade students in Singapore scored highest in math and science. When compared with their grade peers in 45 countries, American eighth graders stand 15th in math and ninth in science; in another survey of 25 nations, our fourth graders stand 12th in math and sixth in science. It's nothing short of disgrace.
Despite all the talk about education and the importance of leaving no child behind, lots of kids are left behind. Even more troubling, another study evaluating how American students apply what they know shows our 15-year-olds lagging behind counterparts in other industrialized countries. This measurement of problem-solving ability is independent of math and science proficiency, but is obviously affected by those disciplines.
The Program for International Student Assessment found that American 15-year olds have trouble working out complex problems requiring creativity, competency and understanding, an ability to analyze and troubleshoot. We take pride in our excellent graduate schools and advanced technology, but we're not educating our children in the subjects that will get them to those graduate schools. Many of the highest scorers will do challenging work, but great numbers at the bottom won't. Blacks and Hispanics do not do as well in math, science and reading as children in other racial and ethnic groups.

Proposals that could have saved Saints
THIS is the letter Leon Crouch first sent to Saints back on October 28, 2008.
At that time the club had played almost a third of their Championship fixtures and bagged 13 points from 14 matches.
That put them third from bottom, two points adrift of Barnsley and Charlton.
Crouch's solictor, Mark Shephard, sent the following letter to Saints.
Dear Sirs, RE: SOUTHAMPTON FOOTBALL CLUB LTD (SFC) We act for Mr Leon Crouch.
We are instructed to write to you to set out formally the various matters that have been discussed informally.
Specifically, we have been instructed to propose that our client is willing to enter into a loan arrangement with SFC in the sum of £2 million, such loan to remain outstanding for an unlimited period, subject to repayment as and when SFC is in sufficient funds to make any such repayment or a significant investor is found.
You will, no doubt, appreciate that this is a very generous offer but one which my client considers necessary given the current finances of SFC and is made to ensure the financial stability of SFC until such time as an investor is found.
This offer is conditional on satisfaction of the following: 1. Messrs Rupert Lowe and Michael Wilde each entering into identical loan agreements, in the same terms as that to be entered into by my client, including as regards quantum and repayment terms; 2. Michael Wilde to resign as chairman of SFC; 3. My client to be reinstated as chairman of SFC and to be reinstated as a director of Southampton Leisure Holdings Plc; 4. Rupert Lowe to retain his position as chairman of Southampton Leisure Holdings plc, albeit that he shall continue to have no involvement on football matters; 5. That the management team of Jan Poortvliet and Mark Wotte are relieved of their duties.
Promoted stories
Any compensation payable to these individuals as a result of this action to be paid by Rupert Lowe and Michael Wilde in their personal capacities.
For the avoidance of doubt, no such compensatory payments are to be made by SFC or any other group company; 6. A new manager to be approved by the board of SFC and with experience of the English system to be appointed as soon as practicable.
A copy of this letter will be sent to Richard Fry of Barclays Bank plc.
Please acknowledge receipt of this letter. Given the matters raised by this letter a response within seven days of receipt is requested.
Yours faithfully, Shoosmiths solicitors Shoosmiths received a letter back from Saints' financial advisors Seymour Pierce dated November 4.
That read as follows ...
Dear Sirs, RE: Southampton Leisure Holdings plc (SLH) Seymour Pierce Limited acts as the Nominated Adviser and broker to SLH.
We are writing to response to your letter dated 28 October 2008 in which you set out the terms under which your client, Mr Leon Crouch, is prepared to enter into a loan arrangement to inject £2 million into Southampton Football Club (SFC).
The Board of SLH ('the Board') has carefully considered Mr Crouch's offer and has discussed this offer with its relevant professional advisers.
Whilst the Board appreciates the offer from Mr Crouch, the c o n d i t i o n s attached to the offer are u n a c c e p t - able in their current form.
The Board is however keen to explore the possibility of Mr Crouch providing a loan to SFC and wish to make it very clear that it is willing to enter into ongoing negotiations to this end.
The Board has asked me to convey their thanks to Mr Crouch for his continued support and interest in Southampton Football Club.
Yours faithfully, Paul Davies For and on behalf of Seymour Pierce Limited.
Acting on behalf of Crouch, Shoosmiths wrote again, this time to Seymour Pierce, on November 11.
That letter was as follows ...
Dear Sirs, SOUTHAMPTON LEISURE HOLDINGS PLC (SLH) Thank you for your letter of 4 November in relation to SLH replying to our letter of 28 October sent to Mr Rupert Lowe.
We note that the terms of Mr Crouch's offer to advance loan finance to SLH are not acceptable as presented but that the Board of SLH remains keen to explore the possibility of loan finance being provided by Mr Crouch to Southampton Football Club (SFC).
From his previous tenure as a director of SLH and chairman of SFC, Mr Crouch is all too aware of the financial pressures being faced by SFC.
Falling attendances and the club's struggling position in the League are likely to be making an already difficult financial position more so.
Mr Crouch remains willing to discuss the terms on which he may provide loan finance to SFC and while the terms set out in our letter of 28 October appear not to be acceptable they indicate clearly his approach on this matter.
We look forward to hearing from you as regards terms that you may be willing to put forward.
Yours faithfully, Shoosmiths CC Mr Leon Crouch As results failed to improve, Crouch became increasingly concerned for Saints and in January sought a meeting with Lowe and Wilde to discuss his proposals.
The meeting was held at St Mary's on the morning of Friday, January 23.
That date is significant because Jan Poortvliet resigned as Saints head coach later that afternoon.
Were the two events linked in any way?
Crouch arrived at the meeting armed with a copy of the agenda he had drawn up in conjuction with his solicitor AGENDA Meeting with the Board of Southampton Leisure Holdings plc (the 'Company').
1. Background The Company and Southampton Football Club (SFC) have been performing poorly, both on and off the pitch. Actions need to be taken urgently if the Company is to avoid further reductions in revenue and p o s s i b l e a d m i n i s - t r a t i o n and if SFC is to avoid relegation.
2. Purpose The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the terms on which Leon Crouch may be willing to advance funds to the Company and changes to the manner in which the Company and SFC are run.
3. Items for Discussion (a) As a condition of Leon Crouch advancing any new money to the Company/SFC, both Rupert Lowe and Michael Wilde must advance new money at the same time and on the same terms.
The amounts and the terms on which monies may be received by the Company/SFC are to be discussed.
(b) Chairman of SFC: - Resignation of Michael Wilde as Chairman and director of SFC: - Appointment of Leon Crouch as Chairman/CEO of SFC with terms of reference agreed with the Board of the Company.
(c) Responsibility for management and operation of SFC and the players (as opposed to the running of the Company).
(d) Football manager – new manager to be appointed.
(e) Appointment of Leon Crouch to the Board of the Company.
(f) Sale by Michael Wilde of his shares in the Company?
(g) Rupert Lowe to continue as Chairman of the Company.
Following that meeting, Seymour Pierce again wrote to Crouch's solicitor.
That letter is as follows ...
Dear Mark, RE: Southampton Leisure Holdings plc (SLH) Thank you very much to both you and Mr. Crouch for coming in to see the Board of SLH this morning.
The Board would like me to express their gratitude to Mr. Crouch for his offer of financial assistance to SLH at this time.
However, the conditions attached to Mr. Crouch's loan put forward to the Board remain unacceptable.
The Board does not feel that Mr.
Crouch's offer provides the Company with a workable solution to resolve its current financial issues.
To ensure there has been no misunderstanding, I set out our understanding of the main conditions attached to Mr. Crouch's offer of a loan: (a) Mr. Crouch's loan must be matched by an identical loan from Rupert Lowe. Michael Wilde is able to participate but his participation is not a condition of the loan; (b) Mr. Crouch is to be appointed Chairman of Southampton Football Club ('the Club') and is offered a seat on the Board of SLH; (c) A manager with suitable experience of the English football league is appointed prior the Club's next league match; and (d) Rupert Lowe is to devote his time to seeking new finance for SLH.
Whilst Mr. Crouch declined the offer at the meeting, the Board reiterates its willingness to consider an alternative proposal, which is supported by the appropriate proof of funds, whereby Mr. Crouch finances SLH without assistance from any members of the current Board and has the right to both remove the current Board (either in full or in part) and appoint his own board.
Yours faithfully, Paul Davies, For and on behalf of Seymour Pierce Limited

Bunch of Arseholes is a phrase that springs to mind!
Lowe has been taking money loosely termed "a salary" for years (£360k pa, prior to 1st relegation) and has never put a single penny in (apart from buying a few shares.
Wilde rode in on a manifest of promises and has delivered absolutely F.A.
The fact that they were not prepared to advance any money to help saints avoid administration and either/or/both relegation surprises me not one little bit.
The worst nightmare scenario is that Lowe manages to get back into control of the club once more following liquidation. In which case my 50yrs as a supporter will cease w.e.f.
I hope it doesn't come to that but my missus will probably welcome Saturdays back again!!

not even in the same realm. That's a 5+year old wired srm. I think that price is fair at best. If it was wireless with a pc6 or 7 for that price it would be a great deal.
EA70 stuff is pretty cheap and plenty stiff.
If you want some early season suffering come to CaliAggie next weekend. People always seem to bring their June-uary legs for it.
The 1/2 race is kind of a waste. It can be icy/rocky, no money and too short for training.
Just surviving and riding in out a "crit" with 4000ft of climbing.

I have a natural nail client who has red moons. They used to be healthy and white, but now they are an angry red about halfway up from the cuticles. She hasn't changed medications or detergent and she isn't experiencing any discomfort. What could this be?
Red lunula (moons) are seen in a number of disorders but also can be idiopathic (meaning they occur with no associated disease). Cardiac failure, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, pulmonary disease, and carbon monoxide poisoning are a few of the conditions that may be associated with red lunula. Also, some conditions that affect the nail can have red lunula such as psoriasis or alopecia areata, but usually there are other visible nail changes with those conditions. Your client should have a good physical examination, but if everything checks out normal, she should not worry about this change. — Phoebe Rich, M.D., is an associate clinical professor of dermatology at Oregon Health & Science University and a member and former president of the Council for Nail Disorders.

And then to answer the previous questions on PNG format, if you look at this picture, the checkerboard is "transparent" underneath it.

For instance outside of the main needle area it is all transparent. Inside the needle completely it is 0% transparent. However right on the edge, some are like 50% some are 60% some are 20% and so on. When that is placed over another image, it will blend what is beneath it into it making it look like it belongs. A gif image must be either 0% or 100% in transparency. So all those values inbetween could not be there and that creates akward little artifacts. Make sense now?
Then the following images are of me manually adjusting the values to different formats. I just used whole numbers, but any decimal will work:
The skin section for that is:
Where:Code:#ENABLEROTATEMAINS#true #ROTATESPINPOINT#153,153 #ROTATELOWHIGH#0;5 #ROTATEANGLES#20;300 #ROTATESTEPS#360
#ENABLEROTATEMAINS# tells the program to rotate the image at #IMAGESTATIC#
#ROTATESPINPOINT#153,153 where xxx,yyy are the coordinates to rotate around. For instance, the needle itself is 183px long. The circle bubble is 50px by 50px. I want the rotation to occur from the centre of that circle obviously, so 183-(50/2) = 153. And since I have positioned the needle in the centre of the entire 316px by 316px image, it will be symmetric so also 153 from the y direction.
#ROTATELOWHIGH#x;y where x is the lowest value in the guage and y. So for a speedometer, x would be 0 and y would be the top speed, lets say 200. However for temperature, you might want the lower limit to be 100F and the upper limit to be like 300F. As of now though it cannot accept evaluated data, so you would need to convert 100F and 300F into their repsective voltage numbers such as 2.3 and 3.8 (example only, not actual).
#ROTATEANGLES#20;300 The image will rotate clockwise. So with the picture I have, an angle of 0 is it pointing straight down, an angle of 90 is pointing to the left, an angle of 180 is pointing straight up, an angle of 270 is pointing to the right, and an angle of 360 will point straight down again. As of now there is no looping so any angle over 360 will always act as 360 so straight down. Also negatives are iffy. I havent tested thouroughly yet. Anyways, the 20 in the skin command means that the lowest angle you want is 20degrees clockwise or pointing down and left, and thehighest would be pointing down and to the right, just as a speedometer is. I have never seen a speedometer point vertically down before (without being busted!).
#ROTATESTEPS#360 means that there is a resolution of 360. If that was 4 then the needle would only have 4 positions. If the resolution was 8 then only 8 positions. Obviously the more positions, the less jagged it looks. So the default is set to 360 which is 1 image per angle which is the maximum pretty much because it does integer math to prevent epileptic flashes like on the analogue graphs (I still dunno what to do about that).... You can make it like 10000, but that will just eat up cpu cycles and not look any better.
So there you have it. Needles and any other rotation can now be done. Air pressure, fuel, rpm, anything just like a cluster guage. I will code this into the skin designer and then post both my new designer and main program.
Any suggestions or comments? I will duplicate this in the main thread for everyone to know about as well.

I don't think you can do what you want to do with that extra RCA. Your S/PDIF is output, not input, so that is out too. I think your best bet is the "CD-IN" connector on the motherboard. Check out this thread:
AUX Input options
Look at the 6th post. You can buy (or make) an adapter to turn that CD-IN connector into a 3.5mm line in jack. I believe it will show up in the windows volume control as the "CD Player" slider.
Good Luck.

When it comes to accusations of assault, one man will always matter more than any number of women. No number of women, no volume of women's testimony, will suffice as "proof."
In cases of rape, the "he said, she said" dilemma has outgrown the realm of legitimate legal query, and has instead come to justify the systemic failure of police and prosecutors nationwide to properly process forensic evidence that could lead to more sexual assault convictions, and also to identifying serial rapists who otherwise remain at large.
What I am seeing, with Dylan Farrow's recent open letter concerning the abuse she says she suffered at the hands of her father, is that a lot of people do not believe that we adult survivors live among them. But we are here.
Richard Mourdock argued in a debate that women who have been raped should not have access to abortion services because their pregnancies are a "gift from god." As a survivor of childhood sexual violence, I disagree with him completely.
As a victim and survivor of rape I am appalled and disgusted with the statements that have been made and although it is a very difficult thing to talk about I decided that I could not remain silent any longer.
I was raped during my freshman year of college. To add to the burden, I got pregnant.

Tiffany Blue and Red January
The end of January is usually cold, barren and grey, but you'd never want your wedding to be that way.

New Years Themed Wedding
Planning a wedding these early months in new year? I recommend black, gold and lots of glitter! This is one celebration where black table cloths with gold runners will look absolutely stunning. Decorate the tables with lots of flickering candles, gold painted watches or clocks for a surreal look, and let that glitter sparkle. New Years is all about the party, so don't forget to have the champagne flowing! If you want to be extra fun, give guests decorated masks to wear near midnight and add a little mystery to the evening.read more
Christmas Themed Weddings

Spray paint leftover Halloween pumpkins with gold spray paint. Uncut pumpkins will last well into Christmas if you keep them out of the rain or moisture.

Barrel Racing Trouble
I have recently been working with my horse on barrels for about a month now. We trotted the pattern for weeks and just started cantering. She will canter the 2nd and third barrel, but not the first. she will start trotting even if I push her. She has no health issues. My saddle fits. I make sure I bend her and get her stretched and warm her up both ways. Any tips?
Is she approaching it on the correct lead?
Lots of horses will slow to a trot when they're turning on the wrong lead to keep their balance.
Posted via Mobile Device
Posted via Mobile Device
Before anything like some previous posters have said, really make sure she is on a correct lead when approaching anything at the lope. If you are able to rule out any issue with teeth, chiro or tack fitting then there are some things you could try.
If she is just being a pill and won't lope into her first, start at the end of the arena before making your approach to the first barrel and lope some good size circles, making sure to circle the SAME way you are are going to turn your first barrel. Lope a few to make sure her body is collected and she is listening to your cues, then come right out of the circle and start into your first barrel that way to get the lope. Make sure your approach/pocket is giving her enough space to make a good turn.

Other banks owned at least in part by the Shuman family appear to have acted openly to help realize Shuman?s dream of no Jews in ?Palestine.? Arab Bank?s chairman allegedly issued a press release stating that the primary activities of another of his family?s financial institutions related to supporting Palestinian jihad.
Following is an excerpt from a May 30, 2001 article in al-Dayan newspaper of United Arab Emirates: ?Abd al-Majid Shuman, chairman of the board of Al-Ta?awun in Geneva, stated in a press release that most of the institution?s activities centered around supporting the Intifada and the Al-Aqsa Fund, which the institution had established at the beginning of the confrontation.?
Arab Bank also appears to have openly supported the Intifada. Shuman is cited in al-Dustour in October 2000 as having orchestrated Arab Bank employees ?to donate 5% of their salaries? ?in solidarity and in support of the Al Aqsa Intifada.?
The same article also asserts that Arab Bank hosted a meeting of the Popular Committee for Support of the Intifada, where the group discussed its plans to ?continue giving direct financial aid to the families of shaheeds (martyrs) and the wounded of the Al-Aqsa intifada as follows: 1000 dinars [roughly $1,400] to the family of each shaheed and 300 dinars [just over $400] to the families of the wounded.?
Lawyers representing Arab Bank, not surprisingly, released a boilerplate denial, stating, ?The accusations being brought against the Bank, as we understand them, are entirely false.?
If Arab Bank has not supported terrorism, however, then either Shuman has lied about his jihadist financing or various Arab newspapers have fabricated statements from him.
Neither potential explanation, though, would account for documents captured by the Israeli Defense Forces that show money being funneled to Hamas and other terrorist groups through Arab Bank?s New York branch.
The plaintiffs have already scored a major victory?before the case was even filed. Last month, a federal court in Chicago ordered the Quranic Literacy Institute to pay $156 million to the Boim family, whose 17-year-old son was shot to death in the West Bank in 1996. The ?non-profit? had been found liable in David?s death for its role in helping finance Hamas. It was the first time American-based supporters of terrorism had been held responsible for the actions of the terrorists they sponsor.
Regardless of how the case against Arab Bank turns out, terror?s sponsors will not have seen the last of Motley and his crew. The maverick trial lawyer is driven to bankrupt those who support and perpetrate terrorism; the September 11 victims? families he represents operate under the name ?9/11 Families United to Bankrupt Terrorism.?
Both in terms of punishing terrorism supporters and stopping the future flow of blood money, the suit against Arab Bank hopefully will mark another significant step by victims in their own war against terror.

Bahrain Bans Rallies - Except For The Pro-Government Ones
NPR's Peter Kenyon tells NPR Newscasts the Bahraini government outlawed demonstrations on Thursday but pro-government supporters held a large rally in Bahrain's capital. Peter saw the crowd at the Grand Mosque, which had access to large government water trucks, suggesting Bahrani officials supported today's turnout. No one was attacked, unlike yesterday's brutal police assault on anti-government protesters as they slept.
Peter says anti-government demonstrators plan to hold a huge rally in Pearl Square tomorrow, despite the rally ban.
The Los Angeles Times says Human Rights Watch is tracking anti-government protests in Libya, where 24 people reportedly died in several cities. Few journalists are there to corroborate facts but graphic video of demonstrations are on the web. Human Rights Watch alleges the Libyan government is coordinating supporters to attack demonstrators.
There's no sign of Wisconsin state senator Lena Taylor or her 13 fellow Democrats, who are unaccounted for. The Wisconsin State Journal notes the Democratic action prevents the Wisconsin state senate (all Republicans) from establishing a quorum to vote on business, including the controversial legislation stripping public unions of nearly all bargaining rights. Walker posted last posted this on her Facebook page: BRB. (HT: TalkingPointsMemo.)
10th ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEATH OF 'THE INTIMIDATOR'
Ten years ago today, race car driver Dale Earnhardt, Sr. died in a crash while racing at the Daytona 500. He was in third place, behind son Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Michael Waltrip, who were battling for the win on the last lap when he crashed and died. NPR's Steve Inskeep talks with Waltrip on Morning Edition about Waltrip's new book, "In The Blink of an Eye: Dale, Daytona, and the Day that Changed Everything".

MLB Swindler Was "Nostradamus w/ Better Body"
A few years ago, the NEW YORK magazine published a fascinatingly dull piece about a "life coach" named Azra Shafi-Schelierini who had been spending plenty of time with the Mets and Yankees. There were anecdotes about how easy she is to talk to, and how Jason Giambi "won't go to the bathroom without her," which seems just plain weird. But it never really addressed what it is she does, or more importantly how she made money. People don't really charge by the hour for this stuff, right?
(Ooooh, what does she see? She must see things that we can't see. Oooooooh. Psychics are real.)
And so while we see that Ron Darling's quotable assessment of her physical attributes is certainly correct - assuming Nostradamus wasn't some gorgeous ex-model lady, of course - her mental faculties may have been overstated just a tad; she's now in prison on grand larceny after a series of swindles.
