Using your Credit Union Debit MasterCard is a great way to make purchases with funds pulled directly from your checking account without incurring the interest you would pay if you were using a credit card. It is also more convenient than writing a check.
Have you ever noticed that merchants almost always ask you "debit" or "credit" when you use your Credit Union Debit MasterCard? The merchant is simply asking how you'd like your transaction processed.
When you answer
- Credit:
- You will sign for the transaction and it will be deducted from your checking account, stop writing checks and start swiping.
- Debit:
- You will be required to enter your Personal Identification Number (PIN). You can also get cash back when you enter your PIN at many merchants nationwide, avoid ATM fees by getting cash back when you shop (where available). The transaction will automatically be deducted from your checking account.
All purchases using the credit or debit option on your Credit Union Debit MasterCard are FREE! The next time you use your Debit MasterCard, tell the merchant it's a credit transaction, sign and go.
- Your Debit MasterCard is also your ATM card so you can use your card at thousands of ATMs nationwide to withdraw cash using your PIN
- Convenience of a no-surcharge ATM network.
- Over 28,000 ATM locations.
- Your Debit MasterCard is accepted worldwide for the purchase of goods and services, just look for the MasterCard logo.
- Unlimited debit transactions!!!! No per transaction fee
- There is ZERO liability to you for fraudulent credit transactions on your Debit MasterCard and $50.00 of liability when your PIN is used for fraudulent purchases and transactions.
- Service available to you 24 hours a day, seven days a week at ATMs and merchants worldwide.
- Free card: no annual fee; no interest charges.
- Security: no need to carry large sums of cash.
- Confidentiality: your PIN or signature on a receipt ensures that information about your account is confidential.

- Apply Online for your Credit Union Debit MasterCard or call member services at call us today!
Helpful Consumer Tips:
When you pay with your Credit Union Debit MasterCard, deduct the amount from your checkbook register just as you do when writing a check or getting cash from the ATM. Keep on top of your checking account balance – and out of overdraft trouble. Every time you make a debit card purchase you get a receipt, which makes record keeping easy. The receipt has complete information: merchant's name, date of purchase and amount. The same detailed information about debit card purchases appears on your monthly checking account statement. Does cash seem to slip through your fingers without a trace? Because using a debit card provides a monthly record where, how often and how much money you spend, you can manage money better.
Financial Facts to protect yourself… if you ever need to dispute a transaction you must first seek resolution with the merchant, we are now required to ask for your letter to the merchant or your documented conversation before we are able to assist you in any way. It is always a great idea when talking to any company regarding a transaction against your account to document the date, time, who you spoke with and your conversation. Protect yourself by sending a follow up letter to restate the conversation as this will help us to assist you if the merchant does not provide a refund credit back to you.

Remember what supporters of Amendment 64 called themselves? They were the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol. Fair enough. Well, here's something you can't do with booze: Swill it on sidewalks or in city parks.
If you do, you'll be ticketed — or at least you will in Denver if a police officer spots you. As The Denver Post's John Ingold reported Friday, "Officers wrote 651 tickets for public consumption of alcohol or possession of alcohol in parks in the first six months of 2013."
And the tally this year for the public puffing on pot? Just 20 citations.
Now it may be that a lot more drinking is going on than marijuana consumption. But that certainly doesn't seem to be the case in and around downtown, where the scent of burning marijuana is not unusual and 20 citations could be written in a day. And even though we've been strong advocates of implementing the provisions of Amendment 64 and keeping the federal government's nose out of Colorado's business, we also think it's important that cannabis use be kept out of public sight.
Not that there is anything contradictory in those views. Amendment 64 very clearly warns, "Nothing in section shall permit consumption that is conducted openly and publicly or in a manner that endangers others." The passage of Amendment 64 was not a signal that anything goes in public — any more than the opening of retail marijuana outlets next year will be.
It's hard to tell whether open use of marijuana has spiked since possession of up to 1 ounce became legal this year. Whether it has or not, however, public consumption clearly increased in some locales as medical marijuana moved into dispensaries and attitudes toward pot evolved.
And it's important that this behavior not become accepted as part of the street scene in Denver or other towns in Colorado. People who don't use pot generally don't want to be subjected to its smoke.
And since the law is on their side, it should be enforced.
We realize Denver voters approved a measure several years ago classifying small-scale marijuana offenses as "the city's lowest law enforcement priority." But that shouldn't prevent officers from ticketing obvious pot infractions they see. After all, we doubt that ticketing public booze consumption is a particularly high priority, either, and yet officers don't appear terribly shy about issuing those citations.
Another important consideration: Of the 10 largest cities in Colorado, Denver is the only one that will allow retail outlets beginning early next year. Denver must not allow the rest of the state — and country — to interpret its welcoming retail outlets as an endorsement of free-wheeling public consumption, too.
It's not, of course, but only if the law is enforced.

To a car driver deprived of his view of the road ahead, an SUV hogging the left lane is hardly a welcome sight. The longer it sits there, the more deeply the car driver ponders its often wasteful bulk, its appetite for gasoline and how brilliant it would be to confine these bloated conveyances to their own clogged stream over there on the far right. Who could possibly love an SUV?

It took until the last few seconds to put the game away, but the South Oldham junior varsity team survived a scare against St. Xavier Monday night, dispatching the hosting Tigers 38-26.
Despite the late game theatrics, South Oldham jumped to a quick lead in the contest and held its own throughout, never surrendering the advantage.
That's not to say they didn't try, letting St. X stage a late rally due to sloppy play and a lack of rebounding. After trailing by 11 entering the final frame, the Tigers went on a 17-8 run to close the gap.

An Eastern Carolina congressman says a local community college should not accept a grant that would explain the Muslim culture.
Craven Community College in New Bern says it will accept the National Endowment for the Humanities' grant. "Bridging Cultures Bookshelf: Muslim Journeys" would provide 25 books and a DVD to the college.
"It is appalling to me that a federal agency like NEH is wasting taxpayer money on programs like this," said Jones. "It makes zero sense for the U.S. government to borrow money from China in order to promote the culture of Islamic civilizations," said the Republican from the third district.
The NEH is collaborating with the American Library Association. It says it wants to provide resources "to enhance libraries' collections and their capacity to engage audiences" in an attempt to give the public trustworthy resources about Muslim beliefs and practices.
But in a letter to college leaders, Jones says if Craven accepts the grant, then he wants the college to give equal exposure to books about Christianity. He says the Craven-Pamlico Christian Coalition is offering to donate 25 books about Christianity and the county's "rich Judeo-Christian heritage".
Craven says it's one of seven institutions in the state to receive the grant. "Anytime we have an opportunity to apply for a grant that can get us money or resources that can enhance, say, our library collection, that's really an important resource to us" says college spokeswoman Judy Eurich.

Hey dor -
Have you applied for the bag expert job yet???
Thank you for your beautiful pictures with the various bags. I'm 4'11 (and 1/2)" and you really helped me make a decision between the Synapse 19 and 25.
Greetings dorayme,
Is your avatar a picture of you and Tom? If it is, it's quite delightful.
Hi dorayme,
It's me, linenchicken, from Ravelry. I hope you don't mind me adding you to my friends list. I thought it would be easier to keep track of your TB "words of wisdom" this way! Thanks!

I talked with the lady at the LYS today about them. She's getting some HiyaHiya sharps in this coming week and put me on the waiting list for size 2-8. I was very pleased with the tips on what she showed me. I was wary of Knit Picks because of the horror stories I've heard about the cables. I do like you can get down to size 2 needles and the shorter 16" cables. Everything else, including the Addi, just didn't start with small enough needles for me - especially since I like to do magic loop on size 1 or 2 needles for socks.
Is that your knitting kit that they posted on the blog? It's amazing. I absolutely love it, and now I'm getting ideas for the extra pouches I have. I was already turning one of them into a notions holder. You also inspired me to finally look into getting a set of HiyaHiyas. Ironically, I also just got one of those little tiny clippers like you have, except mine's blue (TARDIS blue I'd like to think!)
Hello, I have a question about the Western Flyer. Do you know if the Western Flyer, packed, will fit under the airplane seat?
Thank you,
Thanks!! I suspect it's mostly because I hate the sun!
Are you on Ravelry under the same name? If so, we have something else in common!

Spirit of Marquette Award
Julie A. Duffy, Comm '90
Founder of Dinner by Design
Just in case Julie Duffy wasn't busy enough in 2003 as a mother of two toddlers, she began working 16-hour days in a kitchen. That's just what you do when you start your own meal-making company.
Then just to keep things interesting she had her third son when her company was still in its infancy. "Jack hit the ground running with me when he was born. For the first six months he went to every meeting with me," she says, adding Jack tagged along on a kitchen site visit six days after the 12-pounder's birthday.
Those were the early days for Dinner by Design and its franchise arm, DbD Franchising Inc. Since then more than 50 additional outlets opened in the Midwest and Canada before Julie sold both companies last year.
Not bad for an executive who retired from Discover Financial Services so she could stay home with her boys. "Then I was bitten by the meal-assembly bug and the rest is history," Julie says.
She made history by following this entrepreneurial formula: Work hard, surround yourself with smart people, clarify your goals and share the pursuit of those goals with your team.
Then get real.
"No matter how much time you think running your own business will take or how much money, double it for a more realistic snapshot," she says.
Entrepreneurs also need to get familiar with the dirty work. "This job made my corporate career look glamorous," Julie says. "I went from jet setting to New York for lunch meetings to mopping floors, cutting onions, cleaning toilets and taking out the garbage."
How did she find time to get her family — which includes husband, Pat, Bus Ad '90 — to the table? Dinner by Design, of course. Since Julie sold the company, she's returned to her passion for cooking for family and friends. "I like to love people with food," she says.
What's next? The Duffys are relocating from Illinois, Pat's home, to Julie's native Wisconsin (her birth certificate states she's a Packer fan), she's considering writing a book, and may serve other businesses in a consulting role.
"I'll take the summer off, get the kids into their new schools and probably jump into another project then," she says.

Founder Insight gives you feedback from the startup trenches.
In this post from the Ansquick blog, Co-Founder and CEO, Rafael Calle, outlines 6 important points he took away from his four months at FI.
If you are thinking about launching a company with the Founder Institute, check out Rafael's tips for success. Below, a segment of Founder Institute – CEO of Ansquick shares his experiences has been republished;
"1. Starting a company is tough
Think twice before you get started - are you are really willing to do anything for your ambitions? Creating a startup is, frankly speaking, is not as romantic as it may seem. Before starting a project, take your time and think about whether or not you are willing to change your lifestyle, face uncertainties everyday, sleep fewer hours, etc. For some people, working for a larger company might be in your best interest (which is a respectable decision as well, of course).
2. Learn to listen to criticism, but do not let it bring you down
Be open to hearing that your idea does not work, and perhaps you should consider implementing some changes. Do not take criticism as something personal; take everything you have learned from feedback to improve your company.
3. Be humble and curious
One of the worst things entrepreneurs can do is be pretentious and egocentric. This is like condemning your project to fail. Smile and show a positive and friendly attitude.
4. The idea is 10% – execution 90%
Stop talking and start working on your idea to make it come alive. If you are not a programmer, there are tools to help you get started: buy a domain, open a blog, create a landing page and collect some leads. If you are not capable to execute, you are not going to be able to make your idea and dreams come true.
5. Create something that you would use
Does your product provide a solution? Would you use it? It not, you are probably headed in the wrong direction. You have to feel passion for what you do, and most importantly, the solution of your product must solve a current problem.
6. There are always competitors
If you say that your project does not have competitors or that it is entirely "unique", you've probably failed to research the market. Identify your competitors and establish some innovative features that differentiate your company from them.
If you do not know how to do something, look for help. Make deals, exchanges, look for partners, and most importantly: BE CREATIVE!"

"...she has the charm, knowledge, technique, and creativity to make her a real contender. Sonho is a step in the right direction for this newcomer talent. Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz
"Tsengs lyrical voice can be wistful or joyous, depending on the song. Sure of pitch and full of nuance, she really gets Brazilian rhythms, and vivaciously gives them their due." Rad Bennett, Ultra Audio

Emy sings in both Portuguese and English and is known for her music's relaxed vibe and sweet, wistful qualities. She regularly performs with DC's best jazz and Brazilian musicians.

"I did an official visit last week and was able get spend a lot of quality time with coaches and players. I really like where their football program is headed and their rich traditions. That combined with their highly ranked business school made it a good fit for me."

- "Ohh, what - a no good narrow minded hypocrite gang banger telling me what is right and what is wrong."
- — Kendl Johnson
Kendl Johnson is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a main character in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas as the player character (Carl Johnson)'s sister. She is shown to be dating Cesar Vialpando throughout the game (making her the connection between Cesar and Carl).
Kendl is CJ and Sweet's sister, and the older sister of the late Brian Johnson and the 4 of them are the children of Beverly Johnson (who dies just before the game starts). She is also Cesar Vialpando's girlfriend, and therefore affiliated with both Cesar's Varrios Los Aztecas and the Grove Street Families. After learning about Big Smoke and Ryder's betrayal, CJ requests that Cesar bring Kendl to safety by fleeing from Los Santos. Later in the storyline, Cesar pondered proposing to Kendl but the question of whether Kendl accepted or not remains unanswered.
Kendl is depicted as intelligent and pragmatic which suggests that although her brothers turned to crime as a last resort to support themselves. Kendl could become successful within the bounds of the law which makes her the "brains" of CJ's business ventures. She possesses entrepreneurial talents, strong willpower, creativity, and a sense of leadership. In fact it was Kendl who came up with the idea of "Letting money work for you" and when CJ responded with, "I ain't going to no college man", she shot back that she will take care of it. She has little tolerance for whining or complaining or complacecy which causes CJ and others to regard her as a bit bossy. This is exemplified in the mission Zeroing In, when she discovers everyone sitting around playing poker and chastises them questioning if that was how they would build their business.
Kendl has two known deceased relatives; her mother Beverly and her youngest brother Brian.
She is voiced by Yo-Yo.
Mission appearances
- GTA San Andreas
- The Introduction
- First Mission (Voice)

- Kendl is only seen in cutscenes and in "High Stakes, Low Rider", where she uses her beta model.
- Kendl's beta model wears a black #81 football jersey with "BROWN" on the back, blue track pants and white shoes. The model can still be found inside game files, and was edited slightly by Rockstar into a pedestrian model: "BROWN" was changed to "CROON", the "81" to "31", and black to purple.
- Deconstruction is the only mission where Kendl is the boss.
- The only time Kendl calls Carl "CJ" is the mission King In Exile.

The more often you use a Character, the more you unlock. Basically you level up a (underwhelming) Character as you progress through the game.
Each starterfile will have one "LevelUP" Character aviable to them.
Some examples:
Trait "Level UP"
Playing this Unit in matchups will earn it Experience Points.
- 100 Ep: This units StartSkill '??' effects itself.
Trait "Level UP"
Playing this Unit in matchups will earn it Experience Points.
- 150 Ep. This unit gets HP +5.
Trait "Level UP"
- 75 Ep: This unit Rankup requires 1 Less Gowenlvl.
- 200 Ep: This unit unlocks Skill '??'.
- 300 Ep: Whenever this unit attacks, substract -10MHP from a random enemy unit.
I'm sure we can all get creative with the Skills and buffs. Lets for a moment asume the testteam can think of "Level UP" Skills that's not over-the-top OPness and in correlation with its cost.
I personally like the feel of progress and working towards a goal. This provides that certain RPG element to the game. It can also bring more incentive to play underwhelming units into something better.
Like or not? (Ps: i know i've suggested something along these lines before, but just thought of throwing it out there again. I'm feeling hopeful after realising another idea was already in the works. xD)

Australia's grain industry represents around a quarter of all agricultural exports and plays a vital role in the country's economy. CBH Group is one of Australia's leading grain organizations and it represents more than 4,500 grain growers throughout Western Australia (WA). Last year, CBH Group recorded its largest ever harvest, handling more than 15.8 million tons of wheat, barley, canola and oats. But high summer temperatures – reaching over 40°C – and thick, fine dust makes this a difficult environment. CBH Group relies on a fleet of 59 Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) wheel loaders to ensure the grain gets delivered around the world, on time.
Headquartered in Perth, the CBH Group is a co-operative – owned by growers – and covers 12 grain-growing zones across the southern part of WA. Its fleet of L60 E-Series and F-Series wheel loaders move the grain from storages onto rail or trucks, to be transported throughout Australia and the world. The grain is shipped overseas from four ports in WA and then processed into different food produce or used to feed livestock.
CBH Group has been using Volvo wheel loaders as its primary loading equipment for over 10 years. Leon Fallon, network resources manager of Operations, says: "With our product being so essential to people, we need a brand of wheel loader that we can trust." Each of the 59 Volvo machines moves around 200,000 tons of grain per year, working for 8 hours a day and has a lifespan of around 13,000 hours.
Caring for the environment
The CBH Group regards protecting the environment and conserving natural resources as an essential element of the company's operations. In 2008, a Sustainable Fleet Initiative – a program aimed at reducing the engine capacities and increasing the emissions ratings of all the vehicles and machinery used on its sites – was introduced at CBH Group. "Volvo products perform better all round," says Leon Fallon. "Our wheel loaders use less fuel than other brands – and they are more efficient compact machines for our working environment."
Volvo's wheel loaders are characterized by lower fuel consumption and world class total economy. The F-Series range features a quiet, low-emission Volvo V-ACT D6E engine that delivers high torque near idle RPM. Teamed with the Automatic Power Shift (APS) function – Volvo wheel loaders always select the right gear for fast, efficient work cycles.
Service with a smile
With over-demand and under-supply issues throughout the global grain industry, CBH Group cannot afford to have its machinery out of operation – otherwise the world's food chain could be seriously disrupted. The company relies on Volvo CE's national distributor CJD Equipment Pty Ltd to keep its fleet of equipment up and running. "CJD Equipment has been a great business partner," Leon Fallon says. "The sales and service staff are very committed to us – and as a result we experience less downtime and more reliable machines."
Founded in 1974, CJD Equipment is also headquartered in Perth, WA, and has a network of sales and service centers to cover Australia from coast to coast. Its team of over 500 employees are highly trained – and experienced service technicians aim to be on-site within 24 hours to resolve any fault or maintenance issue. "We've always received excellent service from CJD," Leon Fallon adds.
Operating in comfort and style
Volvo's range of wheel loaders offer unrivalled operator comfort, with fully functioning in-cab climate control that keep operators cool – even in the blistering temperatures of the WA's summertime. The cab is designed to allow the best visibility, featuring wrap-around glass and a rear-view camera. Safety is at the heart of Volvo and the entire machine is built with the operator in mind to ensure safe access and maintenance in any jobsite conditions.
"By keeping our operators comfortable while they work, they are more engaged in what they're doing," explains Leon Fallon. "This leads to a more productive workforce – that contributes towards our bottom line." The CBH Group has been in existence for over 80 years, and Leon Fallon hopes that the company's relationship with Volvo CE and CJD Equipment will continue long into the future.

It is simple to navigate, uncluttered and the directory on the left hand side and at the top of the web page makes it easy to find items I'm looking for.

Amanda was very friendly, eager and very knowledgeable concerning multiple items in your company's product lines. I explained to Amanda that I was at work and unable to order anything using my company computer but that I would order from home as soon as convenient.

It may be hard to imagine life without a phone, but imagine not having someone to answer your call. That's how some people with severe and persistent mental illness feel when they're in distress: as if there's no one they can call for help. As a result, they turn to local ERs, and some individuals check in more than a hundred times per year. As part of the MPBN News series, Mental Blocks, Patty Wight meets a man whose job is dedicated to cutting down these ER visits just by picking up the phone.
Ben Skillings (l.), lead coach of the peer coach initiative, and Mark Wheeler (r.) meet for coffee a few times every week to prevent Mark from going into crisis.
Ben Skillings starts his day with a cup of coffee. But it's more than just a cursory detail to his morning routine. It's an important part of his job.
"Yeah, I'm here at Coffee By Design here on Congress Street, meeting with Mark here," Skillings said.
For two years now, Skillings has been meeting Mark Wheeler here at least three times a week. It's a chance to check in and see how he's doing because not so long ago Wheeler was paying a large number of visits to a local emergency room.
"About 165 times, 170 in the same year," Wheeler said.
He is a recovering alcoholic who said he has major depression, PTSD from childhood trauma and panic attacks. About two years ago, his girlfriend committed suicide.
"I was kind of like a zombie," Wheeler said. "It was kind of like my whole heart was ripped out my chest. I was shaky. I couldn't leave my house."
Except to go to the ER because Wheeler himself started to feel suicidal. He became one of dozens of mentally ill individuals who visit Portland's ERs multiple times a week or month. It's been a problem for years, and it got people at Amistad, a Portland-based mental health organization, thinking.
"Our belief was that they may not need to be there, but it's nobody's job to figure out proactively how else we can meet their needs without having them go to the ER," said Peter Driscoll, Executive Director of Amistad.
"So our belief was if we had somebody working with them, who was really interested in forming a relationship with them, kinda outside the traditional medical model, we might have success in getting their needs met," Driscoll said.
The Peer Coaching Initiative was born, and for two years, Ben Skillings has been the sole employee. He started by handing out his cell phone number to a half dozen of the highest frequency users of ERs and telling them his expectations.
"Um, we have to come to some sort of agreement that when you feel like going to the hospital or emergency department to call me first and we will try to meet and work it out and I will try to be as responsive as I can," Skillings said.
Now, he actively works with about 20 people, and at least a few dozen more have his phone number. Skillings works Sunday through Thursday, about 9 to 5, though sometimes his job extends into the evening. His days are a mix of fielding phone calls, to pre-arranged check-ins, like getting coffee with Mark Wheeler, to introducing himself to new peers. The program is covered through a private grant, so Skillings isn't bound by insurance requirements to bill and fill out paperwork. It gives him a freedom that most others who work with the mentally ill don't have.
"Ya know, it's easy to give up on somebody," said Skillings. "I've seen it happen. So basically they're saying, This person is too difficult. They're not getting any better, and they don't fit in with our model."
Peter Driscoll said Ben Skillings gives his clients what they can't get elsewhere, an authentic relationship.
"He's not asking about their diagnosis," Driscoll said. "He's doesn't expect them to follow a treatment plan. He's meeting them where they are. And he's a peer, so he's had the same lived experience that they've had, so that really is the basis for their genuine relationship."
The cost to run the the Peer Coaching Initiative is about $100,000 per year. Driscoll said in its first year, the program cut participants' ER use in half. For Mark Wheeler, it's been even more effective. In the past year, he's gone to the ER only a couple of times, for medical reasons. But Wheeler said Ben Skillings has done more than just help reduce his ER visits. He's helped him envision a future.
"I'm trying to go back to SMCC and try to be a social worker and stuff like that," Wheeler said. "Ya know this wasn't even in the realm of possibility a few years ago? I was just fighting to stay alive every day."
Ben Skillings said being a lifeline for people with severe and persistent mental illness may seem overwhelming, but it's actually pretty simple. He said, he treats people the way his mother taught him to. He just gets paid to show up and do it.

Twitter said Friday that it recently detected a series of attempts to hack into user data, and that the attackers may have successfully absconded with some users' information.
In a blog post Friday afternoon, Twitter explained the situation, and the steps it has taken to fight off the hackers.
This week, we detected unusual access patterns that led to us identifying unauthorized access attempts to Twitter user data. We discovered one live attack and were able to shut it down in process moments later. However, our investigation has thus far indicated that the attackers may have had access to limited user information - usernames, email addresses, session tokens and encrypted/salted versions of passwords - for approximately 250,000 users.
As a precautionary security measure, we have reset passwords and revoked session tokens for these accounts. If your account was one of them, you will have recently received (or will shortly) an email from us at the address associated with your Twitter account notifying you that you will need to create a new password. Your old password will not work when you try to log in to Twitter.
Twitter said in the post that a very small number of users were affected by the hacking, but it encouraged everyone who uses the service to ensure that they are practicing "good password hygiene, on Twitter and elsewhere on the Internet." Among its suggestions: using unique passwords of at least ten characters, including a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols. Based on attacks on other high-profile tech and media companies, Twitter also said it is recommending the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's recent advisory on disabling Java, among other precautions.
This attack was not the work of amateurs, and we do not believe it was an isolated incident. The attackers were extremely sophisticated, and we believe other companies and organizations have also been recently similarly attacked. For that reason we felt that it was important to publicize this attack while we still gather information, and we are helping government and federal law enforcement in their effort to find and prosecute these attackers to make the Internet safer for all users.

Pregnancy after breast cancer
Post-menopausal hormone therapy after breast cancer
The known link between estrogen levels and breast cancer growth has discouraged many women and their doctors from choosing or recommending post-menopausal hormone therapy (PHT), also called hormone replacement therapy (HRT), to help relieve menopausal symptoms.
Unfortunately, many women experience menopausal symptoms after treatment for breast cancer. This can happen naturally, as a result of post-menopausal women stopping PHT, or in pre-menopausal women as a result of chemotherapy or ovarian ablation. Tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors can also cause menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes.
In the past, doctors have offered PHT after breast cancer treatment to women suffering from severe symptoms because early studies had shown no harm. But a well-designed clinical trial (the HABITS study) found that breast cancer survivors taking PHT were much more likely to develop a new or recurrent breast cancer than women who were not taking the drugs. This is why most doctors now feel that if a woman was previously treated for breast cancer, taking PHT would be unwise.
Women might want to discuss with their doctors alternatives to PHT to help with specific menopausal symptoms. Some doctors have suggested that phytoestrogens (estrogen-like substances from certain plant sources, such as soy products) may be safer than the estrogens used in PHT. However, although eating soy foods seems to be safe for breast cancer survivors, there is not enough information available on phytoestrogen supplements to fully evaluate their safety.
Drugs without hormonal properties that may be somewhat effective in treating hot flashes include the antidepressant venlafaxine (Effexor®), the blood pressure drug clonidine, and the nerve drug gabapentin (Neurontin®). Acupuncture also seems to be helpful in treating hot flashes. For women taking tamoxifen, it's important to note that some antidepressants, known as SSRIs, may interact with tamoxifen and could make it less effective. Ask your doctor about any possible interactions between tamoxifen and any drugs you may be taking.

In the Outlands, Beck and Tron are riding their light cycles. It is Beck's first training session, and he is doing well until Tron makes a jump from across a chasm and tells Beck to do the same. Beck ends up losing his baton in the chasm and barely makes it to the opposite ledge. Tron tells him that the problem is that he hesitated. Beck has doubts about being the next Tron since he can't even match the real one. Beck leaves for Argon but he is found by a Recognizer and is told he is in violation of curfew. Beck makes his way to a checkpoint and is forced to hide in a giant crate but notices others inside. A program, Cutler, tells him that he has made himself a prisoner. The crate is taken by a Recognizer and Beck sees that they are heading for the Games.
At the coliseum, Beck and the other programs are given protective gear for the games. A program, Rilo, believes that they will all die and blames The Renegade. Beck tells him to calm down and to stick close. The group is pitted against Black Guards at a difficulty level of extreme. Tessler, Pavel and Paige are revealed to be attending. Tessler announces "Let the games begin!"
Rilo becomes confident after seeing Beck fend off a Black Guard and joins in the fight. He is able to derezz a Black Guard out of luck, but fails to notice another jump behind him and is derezzed. Beck is distracted by Rilo's death and is pushed out of the way of an incoming Black Guard by Cutler. Beck and Cutler are able to defeat all the Black Guards. In their holding cells, Beck expresses guilt and doubt because Rilo was derezzed. Cutler tells him he felt the same way when the ISO war was lost, revealing that he is a veteran. He says that his remaining friends that survived began to disband until the Renegade arrived. Cutler wants to be by the Renegades side fighting, since he is willing to risk his life to fight back. He explains that the reason he came to Argon was to join the Renegade and he believes him to be Tron.
While being transported to the light cycle arena Beck causes a distraction among the other programs, giving him and Cutler the chance to escape. But they are discovered by Paige and handcuffed to each other, put in the light cycle arena with no bikes and put up against three Black Guards with bikes. Using one of the guards light ribbons, they cut the line on their hand cuffs and take out the guards. Tessler is displeased that the crowd is cheering since Beck and Cutler are "conspirators" and wants them derezzed. Pavel suggests an alternative way of showing the audience that rebellion isn't tolerated.
Pavel escorts Beck and Cutler to the Disc arena and tells them that the winner of the next game will go free. Beck asks who they are fighting. He and Cutler are shocked when Pavel informs them that they will fight each other, to the death.In the subplot, Able asks Zed and Mara if Beck showed up for work. He was going to let Beck put up one of his favorite bikes. Able activates the baton revealing an ENCOM 786 (2nd generation light cycle). Mara is impressed since it is one of a kind, it was built for speed and Kevin Flynn rode one. Zed however isn't impressed because of it's an older model and prefers the newer models. Able tells Zed and Mara to tell Beck that the light cycle will be in his office, and he hopes that Beck isn't getting into trouble.
At the 0001001 Club, Zed is embarrassed to dance with Mara, his crush, and sits alone. An attractive female program, Perl, notices Zed and goes to talk with him. Mara notices and urges Zed to dance with her, but since she refers to him as a friend, he leaves with Perl. After seeing that they have limited options for fun, Zed takes Perl to the garage. Perl urges him to allow her to see the areas that are authorized for employees. In Able's office Zed shows Perl some of the old tech that Able has but she is unimpressed and wishes to leave soon. In an effort to impress her and get her to stay, Zed shows her the ENCOM 786, which she takes an interest to. She asks Zed to look at her light cycle saying that it's been acting up. After checking the bike, Zed says he couldn't find anything wrong. Perl than hits him on the head and rides off in the ENCOM 786. Zed now realizes he is in trouble and calls himself an idiot. A Bit from Able's office annoys him by agreeing with him.

A Republic Day celebration is organized by every Compassion child development center across eastern India to teach children in our sponsorship program about national pride. The celebrations include a series of programs like a parade and patriotic dances by the children, flag hoisting, a standing salute to the Indian tricolor by children and staff, and a short speech by the guest of honor.
Through these celebrations, children at the development centers are taught about brotherhood and harmony irrespective of their caste and faith. Children learn to become responsible and loyal toward their future duty as citizens of their nation.
"We are building future patriots for our nation by instilling patriotic fervor in our children through celebrations like Republic Day and Independence Day. If children understand their responsibility towards their motherland from their childhood days, I am confident they have the potential to do great things for our nation," says Puspita, a staff member at IN-729.
Republic Day (26th January) is celebrated every year across India with great pomp and pageant. It is one of the three national holidays of the country.
The occasion is marked by a grand parade in the nation's capital of New Delhi. It includes a march-past by India's three armed forces, distribution of bravery awards, and folk dances by tribal people in their traditional costumes, marking the cultural unity of India.
The Indian military also showcases its latest acquisitions of artillery, missiles and radars. Streaks of jet planes from the Indian Air Force leave a trail of tricolored smoke to culminate the celebration at the nation's capital.
Republic Day fills up every Indian heart with patriotic fervor because it was on this day in 1950 that the Indian Republic and its constitution came into force. On January 26, 1950, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar framed the written constitution of India with seven other members of the drafting committee that finally saw India become a republic nation.
Republic Day has set a milestone in India's history by giving all Indian citizens the right to exercise freedom in every sphere of their life and also teaching them to live in unity, equality and harmony amidst their vast cultural diversity.
The celebrations at IN-729 begin early in the morning as children line up with their center's banner and the Indian tricolor flag to parade through the campus to the rhythm of beating drums.
That is followed by a short prayer from a child and the unfurling of the national flag by the head teacher of the local government school.
The teacher also shares a short speech on Republic Day to encourage and inspire children:
"I have seen great change in this community through the initiative the child development center has taken in educating poor children of this community. I am hopeful that today's children will become tomorrow's leaders in this community; I am glad to see how they are also instilling patriotic feelings in these children through these kind of celebrations."
After flag hoisting, the children put together a beautiful patriotic dance dressed up in the tricolored attire, followed by another short message on the theme of Republic Day. Finally the celebration culminates with a vote of thanks and closing prayer from another Compassion-assisted child.
After the program ends, children line up in rows of two to collect sweets and the national flag is distributed at the gate by volunteers.
"I remember coming to the center and eating candies on Republic Day but as I grew older I realized the importance of this day. I read about Dr. Ambedkar in our history textbooks and it inspired me a lot. We celebrate this day with honor remembering all who helped to make India a republic nation," says Rumpa, a Compassion-assisted child.
Through Republic Day celebrations, the development center instills the spirit of brotherhood, unity and equality in all Compassion-assisted children.
"I want to do something for my nation that I can feel proud of. Besides, the freedom and equality we enjoy today was earned through the sacrifice of our freedom fighters and that is what I want our little brothers and sisters at the development center to know when they grow up like me," tells Anamika, another Compassion-assisted child.
The development center is ministering to children coming from both Hindu and Muslim families.
In the past, village standards were so rigid that Hindu and Muslims would not drink from the same hand pump without first washing it properly. Each had their separate ponds where they took baths. The center has helped children to advocate the message of brotherhood and unity in their families through which many Hindu and Muslim families have come together in love and harmony.
Staff member, Puspita says it well,
"Our children are spreading the message of unity and love in their neighborhood. This has brought a lot of change in the community. Celebrations like Republic Day help us to make that message even more powerful."

Editor's note: This is the second installment of "Deer Dilemma," a WTOP series about the controversial deer hunt planned for Rock Creek Park.
WASHINGTON – Plans for a controversial deer hunt in Rock Creek Park have been put on hold for now as parties on both sides wait for the outcome of a federal lawsuit filed by the hunt's opponents.
The hunt, the first since the park's 1890 founding, aims to thin the herd throughout the next several years.
For residents living near Rock Creek Park, opinions are divided on whether or not the hunt should occur. Some say their plants and gardens have been destroyed by hungry deer.
"I remember my neighbor across the street would call saying, 'The deer are eating your caladiums,' and we used to have impatiens," says Linda Crichlow White. "It's like deer food. It was their breakfast, lunch and dinner."
She and her husband Eric live off 16th Street Northwest on a street that dead-ends at the park.
They say problems with deer on their property peaked around 2006 and 2007, and they've since replaced their plants with more deer resistant ones.
WTOP's Garden Editor Mike McGrath says deer have big appetites.
"Each deer eats about 6 pounds of vegetation a day. When that isn't your azeleas, rhododendrons and arbor vitae, it tends to be native plants," he says. "Some of the issues that people may not think about when they're protecting the deer is they are a bigger threat to native plants surviving the next couple of decades than human habitation and exploitation and development."
White and her husband raised the fence in their backyard from about 4 feet to 6 feet to try to keep deer out, but McGrath says that's just not high enough.
"There are only two guaranteed ways to keep deer off your property," he says. "One is to have a fence around your entire property that is 11 inches taller than Shaquille O'Neal, and that includes the driveway."
"The only other thing that works even close to an 8-foot-tall fence is having a dog outside much of the time, on one of those invisible fencing systems," he adds.
A few years ago, a fawn got stuck in a window well on the side of the Whites' house. Eric created a ramp so the fawn could climb out.
But, despite the encounter, they think of the deer as a nuisance.
"If people wanted deer to roam around their lawns and what have you, they would live in a rural area," Linda says. "I guess there are some people in the city who think they're kind of cute."
She says something needs to be done.
"The deer are a health problem, they bring more ticks, they cause car accidents, they definitely eat our vegetation," she says.
Welcome back anytime
"We know that many people go to Rock Creek Park and delight in seeing the wild creatures of the forest," says deer kill opponent Carol Grunewald. "Whether they be red fox or pileated woodpeckers or deer, people love to see these animals, they're attached to them, they want to protect them, no one wants these deer killed. They don't need to be killed.
Anne Barton, who like Grunewald lives near the intersection of Military Road and Nebraska Avenue in Northwest, is also a plaintiff in the lawsuit to stop the hunt.
In 2004, Barton and her husband had a doe living in their backyard.
"She gave birth to her single baby that year in our yard, and they stayed there for a number of weeks," she says. "She would go every day — and I understand this is typical — she would go off and feed herself at various places, she'd go back to the park."
"She'd cross Military Road and give me a heart attack, but the baby stayed here very still," Barton says. "He never stood up or anything, except when his mother was there. So I took a lot of photos of them, and recently I painted a few pictures."
Barton admits the deer devoured many of her plants, but says she'd welcome them back anytime.
Some of Barton's neighbors even named the deer. Daisy was the mother and the fawn was Bambi.
