New support program at Vol State helps students tackle the tough subjects
Submitted on April 26, 2010 at 9:10 AM
The topic is the human nervous system and the material might cause students to be nervous about the next test. Anatomy and Physiology is one of the toughest classes at Volunteer State Community College. But a new type of study group provides help. The discussion leader has taken the classes previously and received an A. It's part of a new program called Supplemental Instruction (SI).
"It's about encouragement," said SI group leader Melody McVey of Gallatin. "We talk about what everyone is dealing with in the class. I think students get overwhelmed by the amount of stuff you have to learn in A and P."
It's more than a study group. The group leader has proven success in the subject and can provide insight and study tips from a student perspective. McVey aced the course several years ago and is now pursuing a nursing degree. Her help provides a knowledge and background that students in a normal study group might not have.
"It gives you a different perspective on the subject," said student Frank Jackson of Nashville. "You know that you are doing all you can to succeed in the class."
Student Jill Grenhaw of Gordonsville asks a question about the last test, looking for a new approach to the subject. The SI program began this year in the Math and Science Division.
"Our goal is to keep expanding SI to many courses in many different departments," said SI coordinator Brian Fischer. "We target the classes students traditionally struggle in. The students feel more relaxed in the groups and they have the opportunity to ask a lot of questions."
Fischer says research shows that the majority of students in Supplemental Instruction groups can bring their marks up by a full letter grade. Jackson is hoping that a good grade will help him as he applies to the extremely competitive Radiologic Technology program at Vol State. Grenhaw plans on applying to the TSU nursing program.
SI is just one of several ways Vol State supports students to help them succeed in the classroom. There are a wide range of tutoring and support centers available on campus, covering many different subjects. Visit www.volstate.edu/LearningHelp for a list.
For more information about Supplemental Instruction and a list of current courses offering the program visit www.volstate.edu/SupplementalInstruction

Journalists have been urged to invest in analytical reporting and research studies available in the country to unveil public interest issues.
The call was made here yesterday during a five-day workshop on investigative and analytical journalism organised by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (Unesco) in collaboration with St Augustine University of Tanzania (SAUT) as facilitators.
In the workshop, which brought together print and electronic media journalists from Tanzania Mainland and Zanzibar, the facilitator said although there was a certain degree of objective reporting in media houses in the country, there was a need for the journalists to invest in analytical reporting.
Unesco training consultant Rose Haji decried paucity of a reading culture amongst junior and senior journalists for failing to produce analytical stories of public interest to members of the public.
According to researches conducted in the country, she said, journalists needed to translate research findings and produce a distinct number of reports, unlike political or conference reporting which had limited coverage areas.
"Journalists normally have good ideas but lack focus on the agenda…they end up having a good story but of poor analysis," said Haji.
Investigative reporting facilitator and Mwananchi Communications Ltd Reporter Fredrick Katulanda some reporters going to cover stories were not well facilitated for analytical reporting.
He said journalists from different media houses had a single diary, thus failed to set action plans for analytical reporting.
"As a journalist you're supposed to have more than three diaries. One for writing assignments on a daily basis, another for interviews on the field and the other for analytical assignment plans," he said.
Al-Amin Yusuph, a programme specialist for Communication and Information with Unesco, for his part, challenged the journalists and media houses to change the way they covered and reported stories.
He said lack of awareness on legal frameworks was one of the factors that hindered analytical reporting among media outlets in the country.
Meanwhile, Mwanza Region Commissioner (RC) Eng Evarist Ndikillo has urged journalists to report on issues, which will protect and maintain peace in the country.
Speaking at a symposium on World Press Freedom Day in Dar es Salaam yesterday, Ndikillo said a good journalist must report on well researched issues of public interest.
"Journalists are key players in development and should be impartial in their reporting. If you go for such kind of reporting you will be respected and the media house you are working with," he told journalists.
On the Controller Audit General (CAG)'s report on the 2009/10 financial year, which unveils misuse of public funds in local governments he said: "The CAG's report is already out but you find out a journalist writing a feature, which commends a district leader, while in that particular district there are embezzlers of public funds," he said. He also urged journalists to participate well in the constitution making process
He urged them to report on factual issues and avoid cooking stories.
"We need you to specialise in issues like the environment, politics and human rights like CNN and BBC. They have specialised journalists in different categories. It is high time now for you imitated suck kind of reporting," he said.
He also urged journalists to participate in this year's census expected to start in August and inform members of the public on how they could make it a success in Tanzania Mainland and Zanzibar.
For his part, Retired Judge Thomas Mihayo urged journalists to spare some time and study well the current constitution (1977) so that they could be in a good position to educate other Tanzanians how to contribute to the writing of the new constitution.
"Read different issues about the world and people in order to acquire knowledge and be able to transmit it to others," he said.
Several themes are expected to be presented by senior media experts in the country. They are the role of press freedom to encourage transparency and good governance and ensure society enjoys true justice, 50 years of media in Tanzania, challenges and a way forward to be presented by SAUT senior lecturer on mass media communication Nkwabi Ng'wanakilala.
Others are media freedom and the power to transform societies, which will be presented by EALA member Dr Lwanyantika Masha, the role of the media in constitution making process by Zanzibar MAELEZO Director Hassan Mitawi and testimonies on challenges of media faces to be presented by SAUT FM Director Emmanuel Bulendu.
The World Press Freedom Day was sponsored by the Media Council of Tanzania (MCT), the Union of Tanzania Press Clubs (UTPC), the United Nations, Educational, Scientific and Culture (Unesco) and Mwanza Press Club (MPC) as a host. This year's theme is New Voices: Media Freedom Helping to Transform Societies.

When you're 6-foot-8, 315-pounds it's safe to say that college coaches will accept if you're a bit raw as a talent. It's safe to say that long-time Oklahoma commitment Britt Mitchell would fit that bill after an illustrious career at tiny Roscoe, Texas.The most promising thing about the three-star offensive tackle is that he understands there is a lot to learn for him to be prepared for the college level and knows that any time at all can help him be ready. To that end he'll be enrolling early and is well aware that he'll be redshirting during the 2008 season."(Coach Bob Stoops) and I, we just talked about me coming in. He said I looked good and just need to keep up the good work. I'm graduating early so I'll get up there, learn the schemes, and get a year and a half of redshirt in me and hopefully after that start competing for a job," Mitchell explained. ...More...

When its state legislature passed the Kentucky Education Reform Act more than two decades ago, the Bluegrass State was lauded as a leader in K-12 education reform.
"In 1990, we were the darling," said David Baird, associate executive director of the Kentucky School Boards Association. "Everyone was looking to Kentucky and saying, 'What a wonderful reform you have done.'"
Kentucky basked in that praise for many years – maybe too many years, Baird said Monday. Like just about every other state, even with education reform, too many of its high school graduates were needing remediation when they got to college.
But Kentucky snapped out of its complacency in 2009 when the legislature passed Senate Bill 1, a new education reform initiative that just happened to dovetail nicely with the Common Core State Standards Initiative. Once again, Kentucky was the first state to raise the bar.
Baird and Patte Barth, director of NSBA's Center for Public Education, talked Monday morning at the Federal Relations Network (FRN) meeting in Washington, D.C., about what school districts should expect from the Common Core – and what the Common Core expects of them. Described as "fewer, clearer, higher," the new standards aim to help all students be prepared for college or the 21st century workforce.
A state-led program sponsored by the Council of Chief State School Officers and the National Governors Association, the Common Core standards in math and language arts have so far been embraced by 46 states and the District of Columbia. It is built upon the strengths of current state standards.
"[NSBA] supports these because they are state-led," Barth said, but added that the organization expects more financial support for the program.
"We support more funding to go to research and support of assessments," Barth said.
Two consortia are developing assessments to align with the common core. The assessments are scheduled to be released during the 2014-15 school year; it's a scenario that doesn't give school districts a lot of time.
Among the biggest changes in language arts standards will be a new emphasis on exploring and analyzing nonfiction texts, Barth said. She said U. S. students score highly on international comparisons on their ability to analyze fiction, but do less well on expository texts.
Some English teachers have been critical of the standards, believing it would force them to limit the teaching of literature, but Barth said the aim is to spread the requirements for nonfiction reading across the curriculum and to all teachers.

A 'Eeveelution' (Japanese: ブイズ Buizu) is a popular term among fans that is used for the current group of eight Pokémon that evolve from Eevee. Eeveelution is a portmanteau from the words "Eevee" and "evolution". The term Eeveelution is because Eevee can evolve in different kinds of other Eeveelutions but with different kinds of types. The Eeveelutions are very liked among collectors when it goes about a full set of all eight evolutions including Eevee.
Many Eeveelutions have made their first appearances in almost every Pokemon handheld game since Generation I. The first three to be introduced in the first generation are Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon, which evolve from Eevee through the use of a Water Stone, Thunderstone, and Fire Stone, respectively. Two more Eeveelutions were later introduced: Espeon and Umbreon. These two can only evolve from an Eevee with a high level of happiness, and at different times of the day (Espion during the day/morning, Umbreon during the night/dusk), starting in Generation II , and onward. In Generation III , no new Eeveelutions were introduced, but in Generation IV , two new Eeveelutions were created, which are: Leafeon , who evolves from Eevee when leveled up near the green moss stone in Eterna Forest, and Glaceon , who evolves from Eevee when leveled up near an ice rock on Route 216/217. In February of 2013, Nintendo revealed a new Eeveelution for Generation VI , named Sylveon.
Generation I
There were three Eeveelutions introduced in the first generation of the Pokémon series, all three of which are obtainable through use of a Water Stone, Fire Stone and Thunderstone.
- Main article: Eevee
Eevee is the base Pokemon of the Eeveelution chain, and is considered to be one of the most popular and fan-favorited of all the Pokemon. Eevee was introduced in Generation I, and can be obtained in Pokémon Green, Red, Blue, LeafGreen and, FireRed at the top floor of the Celadon Condominiums in Celadon City , but the player can only obtain one per game. Eevee can also be obtained in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver from the NPC named Bill after speaking to him in his house in Goldenrod City if you have already meet him in the Pokémon Center in Ecruteak City. There is a second way to obtain Eevee in Pokémon Gold and Silver, which requires the player to obtain a total of 6666 coins at the Game Corner. Eevee is also obtainable as a starter Pokémon in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness . In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, the player will obtain an Eevee from the NPC Bebe in Hearthome City, but there is a difference between versions. In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, the player will obtain an Eevee from Bebe after obtaining the National Pokédex, but in Pokémon Platinum, obtaining Eevee from Bebe does not need a prerequisite. Eevees can also be found in the wild at the Trophy Garden of Backlot Mansion below Hearthome City. Eevee can also be obtained as a gift in Pokémon Black and White 2 from Amanita in Castelia City, but is extremely hard to find in Castelia City.
- Main article: Vaporeon
- Main article: Jolteon
- Main article: Flareon
Flareon is the Fire-Type Flame Pokemon and one of Eevee's final evolution forms, and can onty be obtained through use of a Fire Stone. Flareon is weak against Vaporeon, since Fire-Type Pokemon are weak to Water-Type abilities.
Generation VI
- Main article: Sylveon
- The two Generation IV Eeveelutions were both owned by rivals of Dawn. Zoey owns Leafeon and May owns Glaceon.
- Also Dawn's other rival, Ursula has a Vaporeon and Flareon.
- All but Jolteon have been owned by a character who plays a large role in multiple episodes and isn't a Gym Leader.
- No new Eeveelutions were revealed in Generation III or V.
- Ursula has a Vaporeon and Flareon.
- Sakura has an Espeon.
- Gary has an Umbreon.
- Zoey has a Leafeon.
- May has a Glaceon.
- Virgil had all current know Eeveelutions until Gen. VI.

The RC Baron is a miniature remote controlled airplane that appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The RC Baron is designed as a model bi-plane with a red body; this design trait, coupled with its name, suggests the plane's design is inspired by the Red Baron, an ace pilot in First World War. In its first appearance in GTA Vice City, the RC Baron originally featured landing gear wheels derived from sports cars in the game; for GTA San Andreas, the landing gear was modified to appear more to scale of the plane. The GTA San Andreas rendition also comes with a functional machine gun.
Prominent uses in missions
The RC Baron has been adopted for use in several missions in both GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas.
- For GTA Vice City, the Baron attains the ability to drop bombs during "Bombs Away!", and is integral to the RC Baron Race side quest from the top the North Point Mall's multistory parking lot; in both cases, the player must enter a Top Fun van in order to fly the planes.
- In GTA San Andreas, the Baron is used in two missions for Zero: "Air Raid", where it is used against Zero, and "Supply Lines...", where CJ uses it in order to help Zero to destroy Berkley's delivery service. The Baron is also used in an optional "Beefy Baron" side-mission for the same purpose as "Supply Lines...". The Baron has a self destruct capability along with a fuel meter in the latter two missions.
The RC Baron is otherwise unattainable outside the missions unless trainers or modifications are used.
- The GTA San Andreas rendition of the RC Baron comes with blinking lights on the wing, similar to an actual plane in the game.
- In GTA Vice City, the RC Baron's wheels are much larger than the San Andreas rendition.
- In GTA San Andreas, the sound of the RC Baron's machine gun and the AK-47/M4 are identical, only the RC Baron's machine gun being fired at a faster rate.

All Blacks deny SpringboksSat, 15 Sep 2012 11:43 AM
New Zealand continued their stranglehold on the Rugby Championship with a 21-11 win over South Africa in Dunedin on Saturday.
While the Springboks will look at this as progress, given that they were in with a real chance of winning, the reality is that they were again their own worst enemies and were denied a bonus point by one of their surfeit of errors.
The Boks left plenty of points out on the park, kicking just two out of nine shots at goal, and simply made too many mistakes to have deserved a win. In
There were two very contrasting styles - New Zealand preferring to play quickly, keep the ball in hand and play wide, while South Africa kicked their usual assortment of high bombs.
While the Springboks matched the All Black pack, at times even dominating, the visitors did not take their all their chances - several kickable penalties and a certain try going to waste. In that first half South Africa also dominated territory.
New Zealand's worst aspect was their poor discipline, as they conceded a string of penalties.
The second half started very much like the first for the Boks, with a golden try-scoring opportunity wasted through a handling error. And the visitors' kicking remained largely ineffective.
In fact South Africa, for brief periods, showed they can threaten when they keep the ball in hand.
However, the biggest loss was that there was no impact off the bench - Dean Greyling, Tiaan Liebenberg and Andries Bekker all contributing more to the All Black cause than their own team.
The Bok defence was very good early on, with some big hits by Willem Alberts.
However, the Boks released the pressure when they were free-kicked at the first two scrums for engaging too early. They also conceded a couple of turnovers by not holding on to the ball.
In fact, South Africa butchered a certain try when Zane Kirchner threw a shocker to Bryan Habana with an open tryline.
The Boks' next scoring opportunity came in the 10th minute, when Bryan Habana affected a penalty at the tackle and Frans Steyn stepped up from 45-metres out on the angle. Unfortunately he was well wide.
Despite giving away a penalty, which gifted the All Blacks a line-out on the Bok 22, South Africa's defence continued to hold out the Kiwis and eventually win a turnover.
South Africa's second kickable penalty came in the 17th minute, courtesy of a strong maul and a few good rucks. Morné Steyn, from about 40 metres out, opened the scoring - 3-0.
However, the All Blacks immediately made the Springboks pay for their a poor kick - a counter started deep inside their own half and with Israel Dagg very prominent in supporting the ball carrier, the fullback collected the last pass from Kieran read to score the opening try. The ability of the Kiwis to offload in the tackle is what set up the score. Aaron Cruden was wide with the conversion attempt - 5-3.
A few minutes later Duane Vermeulen gained his team penalty at the tackle when he latched onto the ball very quickly, but Morné Steyn faded it past the upright.
In the 30th minute, following obstructive running by Conrad Smith, Frans Steyn had a shot from almost 10 metres inside his own half. This time he had the direction, but was just short.
Two minutes later Kieran Read was penalised after again flopping all over the ball on the South African side of a ruck again. This time Morné Steyn shaved the upright on the wrong side.
Right on half-time Tony Woodcock was penalised for taking out the support player at a line-out, but Morné Steyn was again wide.
Despite butchering another try early in the second half, the Boks continued their early dominance and Bryan Habana scored a five-pointer for the Boks - a brilliant individual try when he first cut the line, then chipped and collected to score in the right corner - sheer genius! Morné Steyn's kicking woes continued, but at 8-5 the Boks had the lead again.
The Boks' inability to kick effectively continued to cost them, with Dean Greyling conceding a ruck penalty within a minute of coming on and Aaron Cruden levelling the scores with half-and-hour to go.
And the Kiwis made the Boks pay even more when Aaron Smith stepped past Flip van der Merwe at a ruck to score another brilliant individual try as the visitors seemed to drop their intensity. This time Cruden converted - 15-8, with a quarter of the match remaining.
The Boks seemed to lose the plot completely, with replacement Dean Greyling getting yellow carded within minutes after coming on - a filthy elbow in the face of Richie McCaw.
Aaron Cruden missed a penalty shortly before Bok replacement Johann Goosen was just short with a shot from inside his half.
Goosen managed to get the Boks back into the game with just over 10 minutes left on the clock, when he slotted a kick from just under 50 metres - after yet another Tony Woodcock transgression.
Cruden managed to restore the seven-point lead with just over five minutes left, but the penalty will be debated for some time.
Cruden missed a penalty shot a minutes from time, when he hit the upright, and had another right on full-time - this time slotting it to deny the visitors a bonus point.
Man of the match: Willem Alberts put in some big early hits, while Francois Louw managed the odd turnover. Duane Vermeulen also produced some strong carries. Then there was Bryan Habana - not just his high workrate, which included great kick chasing, but that sublime try 10 minutes into the second half that showed he has lost none of his genius. For New Zealand Aaron Smith showed his class with a great individual try minutes after coming on. However, our award goes to Israel Dagg. He was very good in starting counters and supporting the ball carrier, he was also rock solid at the back, often returning the Boks' kicks with interest. But it is his clearance kicks under pressure that were most impressive.
Moment of the match: You can look at Bryan Habana's try 49th minute try, a sublime individual effort. However, the turning point was Aaron Smith's try in the 60th minute, when he stepped past a defender and sprinted over for a sublime try.
Villain of the match: Tony Woodcock conceded simply too many mindless penalties - which include dangerous play. Luke Romano followed him closely in the penalty stakes. However, Dean Greyling gets the award for conceding a penalty within a minute of coming on and then getting yellow carded for hitting Richie McCaw with an elbow minutes later - he cost his team any momentum they had and with that the chance of winning this game. And he is certain to visit a disciplinary hearing next week.

This is more of an outline and proof of concept than anything else - just the first step in to making the map proper.
As you can see, this is a map of North America. The land itself is unchanged, but sea levels have risen 300 meters. This is a world that has suffered more than a melting of the ice caps: at some point in the past, the Earth passed through a massive cluster of comets. The comets did no physical damage, the cluster being more of an icy cloud, but the result of so much water vapor being released into the atmosphere inundated the world in a great deluge. The process was gradual, though - it took the Earth some time to travel through the cloud - and many civilizations survived by relocating to higher ground. Although reduced to turn-of-the-century technology on the most part, there are still relics of the past hidden in the world.
I chose this sea level because it resulted in a great interior sea, complete with the island of Appalachia and surrounding isles, while still retaining some contours of the old continent. Although the coastline is primarily composed of fjords and skerries, I would assume that sedimentation would, over time, convert much of the rugged coast into marshland, filling in some of the gaps.
Even though the map, in current form, is relatively accurate for such a sea rise, I would still like some input on the design - after all, accuracy isn't everything. Additionally, interior bodies of water have not yet been dealt with (speculation on that is a little trickier, and I'm currently trying to figure out what the general climate and water flow for the region would be), so suggestions for that would be greatly appreciated as well.
As I said before, this is a rough draft - the lines are pixelated and the general workmanship of the map is quite shoddy. There is little originality to the map in its present state, but that will soon be repaired. After making any needed changes and cleaning the map up, I will be adding climate and political divisions next.

Fiendish al-Qaeda terrorists are planning to rescue their imprisoned WMD expert during the chaos they create with their July 4th destruction of all bridges and tunnels to Manhattan. Now it's up to ex-SEAL Harvath to stop the evil-doers -- and neutralize the diabolical three-foot-tall villain known as "The Troll" who supplies their intelligence.
©2006 Brad Thor; (P)2006 Recorded Books
"If you're the type who enjoys the TV show 24 and other high-octane thrillers, Takedown is the...book for you. Chapters are short, crisp, and cinematic, with the focus on gun-blazing, gut-busting action. (The Tennessean)
"Very Enjoyable"
I like the book and was surprized by the ending. This book has lots of twists and turns and reminds me of the 24 series of which I am also a fan. If you like Vince Flynn you will like this also. Good solid book.
Great story! Moves along quickly and is captivating! If you like "24" you'll love Scot Harvath and his brand of justice!!!
"Fast-paced & action packed"
I thoroughly enjoyed this book from beginning to end. It kept me riveted during my commute. If you liked "License to Kill" or other books of this genre, this one is worth your time. The characters were good and not too over-the-top. The non-stop action was well written - I could see it all in my mind like watching a movie.
"Exciting, fast-paced thriller"
This was my first Brad Thor listen and now I do think I will get his other books right away. Scott Harvath, the main character in this book, has apparently has other adventures I need to read about. In TakeDown, Harvath captures an Al-Quaeda baddie and brings him back to the US for interrogation. Soon after, all hell breaks loose when terrorists strike New York City even harder than on 9/11/2001, blowing up bridges, tunnels and buildings and leaving thousands dead and injured. Unlike 9/11, the terrorists aren't suicide bombers, but well armed commandos with a plan, a back-up plan and a goal. Trying to figure out the terrorist's main objective keeps Scott and his hodge podge group of survivors busy. Just when they seem to be making headway, the terrorists have some new trick up their sleeves and manage to evade them. If you have listened to Brad Thor before you will likely enjoy this book, but if you are like me and hadn't run across him before you will especially enjoy finding a new author with other books to catch up on!
"Why didn't I knorw about this book? Excellent!"
This was a real page turner. I've never heard of, or read anything by Brad Thor, but am very glad I found this book. The plot was excellent, yet easy to follow. George did his usual great job as narrator. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!
sports announcer, cyclist, enjoys to travel and the outdoors.
"Great Book"
I am enjoying Thor's books. I really enjoed Takedown it is an excellent book. Worth the listen to.
"One of Brad Thor's Best!"
In my opinion, this has got to be one of Brad Thor's best Scot Harvath novels. I listened to the whole book in two sittings, it was impossible to put down. Granted, one must take into consideration the exceptional narration by George Guidall - he really brings these kinds of non-stop action novels to life.
If you enjoy reading Tom Clancy, Daniel Silva and Vince Flynn - you will enjoy Brad Thor.
Highly Recommended!
"Good not super"
This was my first book by the author. It was a good book but not great. If you like this type of book, I highly recommend the author Vince Flynn. He writes the same type of story but I enjoy them much more.
AMERICA...Military History, History, Action and the love of good believable thrillers.
"twists and turns"
This was a very good book with many twists and turns that I did not expect. It makes you want to pick up the next book and start reading immediately, to see what is going to happen?

Ways to Comfort a Crying Baby
Topic Overview
Comforting techniques often will calm a crying child if the crying isn't caused by pain. These techniques may help comfort a baby with colic, because colic isn't caused by pain. But if the crying doesn't seem normal or your baby seems sick, call your doctor.
First, check to be sure your baby isn't hungry. Very young babies usually don't eat much at one sitting and may become hungry 1 to 2 hours after a feeding. Feeding your baby might stop the crying.
- Offer a pacifier for sucking. Sucking can help babies relieve stress without crying.
- Try rocking your baby. Gently rock your baby, or use a mechanical swing.
- Sing quietly to your baby. You may find that singing the same song over and over is soothing. You can also try playing music at a low volume.
- Turn on something with a rhythmic sound, such as a fan that hums, a vacuum cleaner, a clothes dryer, tape recordings of womb sounds, or a crib sound-and-motion device. A vibrating soothing device, which generates white noise and vibrates the bed, may be soothing to your child.
- Cuddle and hold your baby close. Touching, holding, and softly talking to the baby may stop the crying. You can also try carrying the baby around (in a sling or other baby carrier) while you are doing activities so that the baby is comforted by being close to you.
- Wrap your baby's arms and legs snugly against his or her body in a blanket (swaddling). Be sure you don't make your child too warm.
- Give your child a warm water bath if he or she likes to take a bath.
- Try walking or taking your child for a ride in a stroller or a car. Sometimes a walk outside can change a child's mood.
- Change your baby's position. Hold your baby so that you put gentle pressure on the belly. Try holding your baby with his or her belly over your lower arm and his or her head at your elbow.
How to use the techniques
- Use one technique at a time.
- Give the technique time to work. Try it for about 1 to 2 minutes before switching to another technique.
- If your baby continues to cry for 20 to 30 minutes, change locations and try again. Sometimes nothing works. In these cases, consider placing your baby in his or her crib for a brief period (5 minutes at a time) while you stay close by. Then repeat your attempts to comfort.
- When you find what works, use it most of the time or use it as the first technique to comfort your child.

Skip to main content
And here's the second part of our volunteer profiles (part one is here) so all of you can better get to know some of the people we're so lucky to have on Team Scarleteen!
Age: 27
Where do you live? Melbourne, Australia
What year did you first find Scarleteen? 2004
What made you want to volunteer? I went through high school and the first couple years of university completely clueless about pretty much everything to do with sex and relationships. When I finally found Scarleteen and had my own questions answered so brilliantly, with so much information and so much obvious care, I knew I had to help out.
Biggest personal sexual epiphany (so far)? Learning to say "no", without any guilt, without feeling I'm letting a partner down, without second-guessing myself.
Best thing you ever learned from a Scarleteen user/users: That I can learn from them, really - I'm not always going to be the "expert". When I first started volunteering, I was so worried that it meant I'd have to know *everything* all of a sudden, but I figured out pretty quickly that I will always be learning something new here, and all of our users have a lot of knowledge to offer.
Favorite book: It's so tough to pick just one, but "A Wrinkle in Time" has always been near the top of the list. That, or anything by Terry Pratchett.
Favorite film: The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
One major life goal: To find a place that feels like home, and get to stay there for a good long time.
If you could sum up what you want to give to users here in your work at Scarleteen, what would that be? I want to help them be comfortable with who they are, to know that life is almost always best when you're being exactly who you are and not someone else's idea of who you should be.
Age: 27
Where do you live? Cologne, Germany
What year did you first find Scarleteen? 2005
What made you want to volunteer? I wanted to spread the joy, basically. Scarleteen opened up all of these doors to me that I hadn't even been aware of previously, and I felt that everyone should have those opportunities. (It's part of why I love to teach, in general: I get super excited about learning new things, and I love the look on someone's face when they just learned something new that is completely changing their world view in a positive way. Can't beat that.)
Biggest personal sexual epiphany (so far)? That it's okay if I can't pin down my sexual orientation for more than a day at a time, and that it's okay if I love and want to be with more than one person. We all have, and get to have, our own authentic approach to sexuality, and they're all equally valid.
Best thing you ever learned from a Scarleteen user/users: I've been around for so long and been part of so many conversations that it is hard to pick out just one. But I'll keep thinking, maybe something comes to mind!
Favorite book: The book that single-handedly saved my life when I was 16 is Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead. I'm also a big fan of the Harry Potter books and To Kill a Mockingbird, and lots of trashy vampire novels.
Favorite film: I have to watch Hedwig and the Angry Inch about once a week. I also like Out of Africa for when I'm feeling romantic, and My Girl for moments of childhood nostalgia.
One major life goal: To be able to live my life just the way I want it, unapologetic.
If you could sum up what you want to give to users here in your work at Scarleteen, what would that be? I want to give them the sense that they're okay, that there is nothing wrong with their wants or desires, and that they deserve to be respected.
Age: 24
Where do you live? Seattle
What year did you first find Scarleteen? 2002
What made you want to volunteer? A combination of being a sex ed nerd and a passion for helping people.
Biggest personal sexual epiphany (so far)? To relax and enjoy - it's supposed to be fun and feel good!
Best thing you ever learned from a Scarleteen user/users: The best thing I've learned from Scarleeen users is the importance of going through the process of learning what you like and don't like sexually (orientation, experimenting with activities, etc).
Favorite book: A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.
Favorite film: Once.
One major life goal: To figure out what awesome career I want to have before I have to major in it.
If you could sum up what you want to give to users here in your work at Scarleteen, what would that be? It would be that while no one has ALL of the answers (except maybe Heather [editor's note: I don't have them either! - HC]), we can work together as a community to keep everyone happy, healthy and full of real knowledge.
Age: 30
Where do you live? Kentucky
What year did you first find Scarleteen? 2000
What made you want to volunteer? While I understood the mechanics, I was pretty clueless about relationships when I came out of high school. The more I learned at Scarleteen, the more committed I became to the mission of helping others also learn more about healthy relationships and sexuality.
Biggest personal sexual epiphany (so far)? That condoms are awesome.
Best thing you ever learned from a Scarleteen user/users: The best thing I've learned from ST users is about how important it is to listen. Learning from others, communicating with partners, friends and others all start with listening.
Favorite book: Just about anything sci-fi/fantasy.
Favorite film: I love musicals. It's hard to pick just one favorite!
One major life goal: To do work that I love and feel is important.
If you could sum up what you want to give to users here in your work at Scarleteen, what would that be? I'm proud to be a part of a place that provides a safe space and honest information where everyone can share and learn from one another.
My fourteen year old daughter just became pregnant with her first ever shot at trying sex.Now I am being investigated by child protective services.It is to them considered child abuse and maltreatment.I am just as shocked and upset about my daughters pregnancy and dont feel i am to blame .i love my kids and care for them.I do not agree this is a social services problem.Do you???
I'm not sure why you posted this here, and I'm worried you won't see my reply because this is the only way I can respond to it, given you posted anonymously. But I'll give it a shot.
Why social services chooses to investigate families is sometimes very arbitrary, but also sometimes about more than is just on the surface. For instance, I have no idea about the context this happened in per her partner (if it was consensual, setting aside that her age alone may make it nonconsensual). I don't know about what, if any history, you have with your family and social services, nor what, if anything, they think your contribution with this may be.
So, I can't give an opinion here because I am going to be lacking a good many of the facts. However, what I would STRONGLY advise is that you make sure that both you and your daughter, especially her, are getting the support you both will need through all of this, even if social services were not involved. (Same goes for you getting the information and education you probably need per knowing how to be supportive of her yourself, especially at a time when you now have your own situation going on with this.) If you'd like for me to help connect you with local support services for both of you around this, please drop a line using the "contact us" link at the bottom of this page, and I will be happy to do that.

Your edit...
Rather than reverting back to an original poor edit why not simply take the time to look at what the editor has done. I improved the Los Santos Vagos (HD Era) page and you simply reverted it back to the crappy original. I've since reverted your poor editing choice back to my own edit. In future try to think about the quality before undoing edits. I'm just trying to help the wiki. Enigma24 (talk) 22:34, August 14, 2013 (UTC)
Dear Cloudkit01, the sentence that you have removed in Trivia_Test Drive is a true statement. Evidence can always be provided. It is not a "false info", therefore I re-wrote the sentence again.
In ressponse to the changes you've made in Trivia_Test Drive, I shall re-post the statement again with a video recording as the evidence soon.

Hey, I've got a picture of ingame footage of one of the missions called Repossesion but i'm really having trouble getting it into the info box and i'm new to this so i'm honestly confused could you help please?
Thanks James1579 (talk) 20:39, September 4, 2013 (UTC)Here's the photo by the way
- That's not from the mission; the mission takes place in urban Los Santos and doesn't feature Michael and Trevor. Plus, it's one of Franklin's first missions, so I don't think he'll have firepower like that so early in the game Jackbel (talk) 20:43, September 4, 2013 (UTC)
- I assumed it was part of the mission because the area looks like it's very close to the city and the mission description says at one point a car enters the area and crashes which you can see in the photo and it starts to leak gasoline to which Franklin shoots the gas tank and destroys the vehicle. James1579 (talk) 20:47, September 4, 2013 (UTC)

Remember that only individuals who were convicted and sentenced can be placed in the category, not ones who werre "simply" arrested by the cops. Thankfully I haven't noticed such mistake in your edits. Keep up! -- ILan (XD • Edits • Home ) 19:27, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Inactivity notice
I just wanted to let you know, school starts on 16 September. Here, at the end of the year we will have to pass 2 exams with a grade as high as possible, this will decide our future. The higher the grade, the better the high school. Due to this I'll have to learn a lot and do a lot of homework, so I will become inactive. I'll try to check the wiki as much as possible, maybe even daily, but I won't edit that much. Cheers! Dodo8 Talk

Crazyfan's sock
Mysterious Sprite Drink of Awesomeness 10000 (talk) 22:13, September 26, 2013 (UTC) I was wondering if you know about this guy @Crazyfan sock because I went on contributions on Amazing World of Gumball Wiki 10 or so days ago and didn't know for over 4 months that I was infinitely banned by @Ailourophile for this person accusing me of whoever @Crazyfan sock is. Yes I was a jerk to you guys in the past and I told myself that since I'm good outside of chats I decided to be good on chats. But I'm not this guy. & I know you're most likely still angered at me from in the past but I decided to change myself drastically. I'm only telling you this because I only trust you to see if these @Crazyfan sock accusions can be done with on me. You do think I'm not @Crazyfan sock right????? I'll do anything I can do to prove I'm not him.
Also sorry I'm very confused on how these talk things work. I'm more used to the threads seen on some Wikia's
& if you can't tell by the signature I'm Super Mysterious.
I made some edits to the Wanted Level. I need someone to verify them as a second person. Would you mind doing this? Thanks. Bar27262 (talk) 20:11, September 27, 2013 (UTC)

My bad for the mess, but can you add the Beta Police Cruiser and Police Maverick to the page in Grand Theft Auto V. I was publishing my edit with the Police Cruiser but because of Henriquedematos edit at the same time, it came up with that mess. Smashbro8 (talk) 02:41, September 30, 2013 (UTC)Smashbro8
I've remembered that in America English you take the "u" out of a lot of words, that explains your edit. I'm not sure if this Wiki uses English or American English, we seem to have a mixture of both at the moment. Tom Talk 22:31, September 30, 2013 (UTC)

When I make an edit, a message shows up in my email that says you edited that page, but it was actually because I made an edit and Wikia just confused you for me or whatever. WTF? Mike Cui (talk) 22:33, October 1, 2013 (UTC)

A user here stole images from me without credit so I am disallowing their use here
I couldnt message "The Tom" since its protected, but user DocVinewood used images from strategy guides I wrote without my permission. I only gave a few people permission to use my images and he was not one of them. He then removed the images after told him, but someone reinserted them. Please remove all his images. I am not given further permission since they were used like his own without giving me credit! I worked hard on taking all those screenshots. Thanks JoshGmr (talk) 00:37, October 7, 2013 (UTC)
I've checked, and it's the "Alamo Sea", not the "Alamos". I've renamed the article, but if you've changed the spelling on any other page, could you revert it please? Thanks. Tom Talk 09:29, October 7, 2013 (UTC)
I hope you don't mind :/

30 U.S. Code § 1721 - Royalty terms and conditions, interest, and penalties
prev | next
(a) Charge on late royalty payment or royalty payment deficiency
In the case of oil and gas leases where royalty payments are not received by the Secretary on the date that such payments are due, or are less than the amount due, the Secretary shall charge interest on such late payments or underpayments at the rate applicable under section 6621 of title 26. In the case of an underpayment or partial payment, interest shall be computed and charged only on the amount of the deficiency and not on the total amount due.
(b) Charge on late payment made by Secretary to States
Any payment made by the Secretary to a State under section 191 of this title and any other payment made by the Secretary to a State from any oil or gas royalty received by the Secretary which is not paid on the date required under section 191 of this title shall include an interest charge computed at the rate applicable under section 6621 of title 26.
(c) Deposit in royalty accounts of charges on royalties due and owing Indians
All interest charges collected under this chapter or under other applicable laws because of nonpayment, late payment or underpayment of royalties due and owing an Indian tribe or an Indian allottee shall be deposited to the same account as the royalty with respect to which such interest is paid.
(d) Charge on late deposit of royalty fund to an Indian account
(e) Nonliability of States for Secretary's failure to comply with the Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act of 1973 or regulations thereunder
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no State will be assessed for any interest or penalties found to be due against the Secretary for failure to comply with the Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act of 1973 [15 U.S.C. 751 et seq.] or regulation of the Secretary of Energy thereunder concerning crude oil certification or pricing with respect to crude oil taken by the Secretary in kind as royalty. Any State share of an overcharge, resulting from such failure to comply, shall be assessed against moneys found to be due and owing to such State as a result of audits of royalty accounts for transactions which took place prior to January 12, 1983, except that if after the completion of such audits, sufficient moneys have not been found due and owing to any State, the State shall be assessed the balance of that State's share of the overcharge.
(f) Limitation on interest charged
Interest shall be charged under this section only for the number of days a payment is late.
(h) Lessee or designee interest
Interest shall be allowed and paid or credited on any overpayment, with such interest to accrue from the date such overpayment was made, at the rate obtained by applying the provisions of subparagraphs (A) and (B) of section 6621(a)(1) of title 26, but determined without regard to the sentence following subparagraph (B) of section 6621(a)(1). Interest which has accrued on any overpayment may be applied to reduce an underpayment. This subsection applies to overpayments made later than six months after August 13, 1996, or September 1, 1996, whichever is later. Such interest shall be paid from amounts received as current receipts from sales, bonuses, royalties (including interest charges collected under this section) and rentals of the public lands and the Outer Continental Shelf under the provisions of the Mineral Leasing Act [30 U.S.C. 181 et seq.], and the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act [43 U.S.C. 1331 et seq.], which are not payable to a State or the Reclamation Fund. The portion of any such interest payment attributable to any amounts previously disbursed to a State, the Reclamation Fund, or any other recipient designated by law shall be deducted from the next disbursements to that recipient made under the applicable law. Such amounts deducted from subsequent disbursements shall be credited to miscellaneous receipts in the Treasury.
(i) Limitation on interest
(2) Excessive overpayment defined
For purposes of this chapter, an "excessive overpayment" shall be the amount that any overpayment a lessee or its designee pays for a given reporting month (excluding payments for demands for obligations determined to be due as a result of judicial or administrative proceedings or agreed to be paid pursuant to settlement agreements) for the aggregate of all of its Federal leases exceeds 10 percent of the total royalties paid that month for those leases.
(j) Estimated payment
A lessee or its designee may make a payment for the approximate amount of royalties (hereinafter in this subsection "estimated payment") that would otherwise be due for such lease by the date royalties are due for that lease. When an estimated payment is made, actual royalties are payable at the end of the month following the month in which the estimated payment is made. If the estimated payment was less than the amount of actual royalties due, interest is owed on the underpaid amount. If the estimated payment exceeds the actual royalties due, interest is owed on the overpayment. If the lessee or its designee makes a payment for such actual royalties, the lessee or its designee may apply the estimated payment to future royalties. Any estimated payment may be adjusted, recouped, or reinstated at any time by the lessee or its designee.
(k) Volume allocation of oil and gas production
(1)Except as otherwise provided by this subsection—
(A)a lessee or its designee of a lease in a unit or communitization agreement which contains only Federal leases with the same royalty rate and funds distribution shall report and pay royalties on oil and gas production for each production month based on the actual volume of production sold by or on behalf of that lessee;
(B)a lessee or its designee of a lease in any other unit or communitization agreement shall report and pay royalties on oil and gas production for each production month based on the volume of oil and gas produced from such agreement and allocated to the lease in accordance with the terms of the agreement; and
(2)This subsection applies only to requirements for reporting and paying royalties. Nothing in this subsection is intended to alter a lessee's liability for royalties on oil or gas production based on the share of production allocated to the lease in accordance with the terms of the lease, a unit or communitization agreement, or any other agreement.
(3)For any unit or communitization agreement if all lessees contractually agree to an alternative method of royalty reporting and payment, the lessees may submit such alternative method to the Secretary or the delegated State for approval and make payments in accordance with such approved alternative method so long as such alternative method does not reduce the amount of the royalty obligation.
(4)The Secretary or the delegated State shall grant an exception from the reporting and payment requirements for marginal properties by allowing for any calendar year or portion thereof royalties to be paid each month based on the volume of production sold. Interest shall not accrue on the difference for the entire calendar year or portion thereof between the amount of oil and gas actually sold and the share of production allocated to the lease until the beginning of the month following such calendar year or portion thereof. Any additional royalties due or overpaid royalties and associated interest shall be paid, refunded, or credited within six months after the end of each calendar year in which royalties are paid based on volumes of production sold. For the purpose of this subsection, the term "marginal property" means a lease that produces on average the combined equivalent of less than 15 barrels of oil per well per day or 90 thousand cubic feet of gas per well per day, or a combination thereof, determined by dividing the average daily production of crude oil and natural gas from producing wells on such lease by the number of such wells, unless the Secretary, together with the State concerned, determines that a different production is more appropriate.
(5)Not later than two years after August 13, 1996, the Secretary shall issue any appropriate demand for all outstanding royalty payment disputes regarding who is required to report and pay royalties on production from units and communitization agreements outstanding on August 13, 1996, and collect royalty amounts owed on such production.
(l) Production allocation
The Secretary shall issue all determinations of allocations of production for units and communitization agreements within 120 days of a request for determination. If the Secretary fails to issue a determination within such 120-day period, the Secretary shall waive interest due on obligations subject to the determination until the end of the month following the month in which the determination is made.

I have been sexually active for about three years now and have always had a problem with irritation after sex. I have recurring urinary tract infections which are now under control with medication, so I always assumed that the irritation was just the beginning of the infections. However, now that the UTIs are under control I have still been experiencing soreness, itchiness, and redness around the vaginal opening. Should I be using a different lubricant or am I allergic to latex? Are there good hypoallergenic lubes and condoms? Also, my boyfriend is on the larger side of the penis spectrum, so I don't know if the problem could be that we don't have an effective enough lube. Please, help!

It is requested that this article, or a section of this article, be expanded. Please help the Harry Potter Wiki by expanding this article to give more complete coverage of its subject.
A television is a Muggle device used to transmit images and sound from far away. Muggles use them for entertainment and information acquiring purposes. Most Muggle homes have at least one set, and there is most likely no wizarding world equivalent. Despite this, there was an attempt to create a wizarding television network in the early 1980s, but it was shot down by the British Ministry of Magic.
In 1991, Harry Potter was allowed to watch television during a visit with Arabella Figg.
Dudley Dursley regularly enjoyed watching television programs such as The Great Humberto and became distressed if away from the television for too long. He broke his first ever television set by kicking it, following the cancellation of his favourite program. For the summer holidays, he was given a second television to replace it.
Harry Potter was found by his aunt and uncle, hiding in a large hydrangea bush one evening while listening to the television for news about the mysterious events surrounding Lord Voldemort's return. He was unlucky, however, only hearing things such as news about a Spanish baggage-handlers' strike, an advertisement for Fruit 'n' Bran and fluff news about a water-skiing budgerigar.
Dudley is also rather distracted by the television during the Dursley's dinner with Aunt Marge.
A television was owned by the Luchino Caffe.
A television is found in a secret room at Hogwarts showing a rabbit.

text: There is no doubt that as a people we have come a long way in our struggle to overcome some of the most brutal experiences in the history of humankind; social movements as well as legal and political avenues have given us the means to overcome slavery, Jim Crow, and a host of other oppressive forces and atrocities. Yet, there is one struggle that appears to be ongoing, and that is the struggle to heal and build: specifically, to heal the pain stemming from disconnection from culture, loss of community, and separation from our intellectual heritage. Building on opinions expressed by some of our most well-known thinkers, activists and writers, in this article I will address community development from a cultural standpoint, because, as I have been taught by life, it is culture which provides the necessary foundation for a people to heal, work together and build. In my current role as a student of culture and life, I often call upon experiences I had as a child while living in the Mississippi Delta. It was while living in the Delta, an area considered one of the most destitute places in the United States, where I learned from an early age that Black people survived, maintained their integrity, and built economies using culture as the source.

(2) Dependent child described

(A) is a dependent child, under the terms of the plan, of a participant or beneficiary under the plan; and
(3) Certification by physician
Paragraph (1) shall apply to a group health plan only if the plan, or the issuer of health insurance coverage offered in connection with the plan, has received written certification by a treating physician of the dependent child which states that the child is suffering from a serious illness or injury and that the leave of absence (or other change of enrollment) described in subsection (a) is medically necessary.
(c) Notice
A group health plan shall include, with any notice regarding a requirement for certification of student status for coverage under the plan, a description of the terms of this section for continued coverage during medically necessary leaves of absence. Such description shall be in language which is understandable to the typical plan participant.
(d) No change in benefits
A dependent child whose benefits are continued under this section shall be entitled to the same benefits as if (during the medically necessary leave of absence) the child continued to be a covered student at the institution of higher education and was not on a medically necessary leave of absence.
(e) Continued application in case of changed coverage
(1) a dependent child of a participant or beneficiary is in a period of coverage under a group health plan, pursuant to a medically necessary leave of absence of the child described in subsection (b);
(2) the manner in which the participant or beneficiary is covered under the plan changes, whether through a change in health insurance coverage or health insurance issuer, a change between health insurance coverage and self-insured coverage, or otherwise; and
(3) the coverage as so changed continues to provide coverage of beneficiaries as dependent children,
this section shall apply to coverage of the child under the changed coverage for the remainder of the period of the medically necessary leave of absence of the dependent child under the plan in the same manner as it would have applied if the changed coverage had been the previous coverage.

On any NWF Expedition, you go home not only with snapshots or souvenirs but also knowledge, understanding and valuable experiences. Expedition prices include accommodations, transportation, guides and educational programming, most if not all meals, and a host of extras. Just one of these extras includes carbon neutral travel through a partnership with Carbonfund.org, supporting important climate mitigation projects that protect wild places in the United States and around the world. Plus, the average group size of their Expeditions is just 15 to 20 participants to ensure minimal impact on the environment and maximum enjoyment for the traveler. With 75 years of protecting wildlife, NWF Expeditions are a great way to go! For more information please visit their site, Travel with NWF, or "Like" them on Facebook to get travel updates.
