Chronicle of Philanthropy | July 22, 2012
Why he's leaving: Mike Laflin, 65, has retired as senior vice president at Education Development Center, where he oversaw international-development programs. He had worked for the Waltham, Mass., charity for nearly 20 years. His successor is Larry Lai.
Background: After three years as an English teacher in his native Britain, Mr. Laflin taught in Kenya under a British aid program in 1972. The Kenyan Ministry of Education later transferred him to the school's broadcasting service to write and direct educational radio programs.
Proudest accomplishment: Building a nationwide program that provided educational instruction over the radio to students in Zambia, which has lost many teachers to HIV/AIDS and where schools are scarce in rural areas. Communities organize sites where children meet for half-hour daily broadcasts for each grade, overseen by a local volunteer. Students who receive the radio instruction perform at the same level as their peers in conventional schools on tests for fourth graders. "It showed that there were other ways to meet the demand for education than just saying schools are the answer or we need to train more teachers," says Mr. Laflin.
Challenges for international development: Mr. Laflin worries that the trend toward data-driven grant making, while understandable, is curtailing experimentation and research. "If you are looking for evidence, you're by definition looking to the past or the present, but not to the future."
Salary: $275,000
What's next: Mr. Laflin plans to return to writing and theater, interests he had to put aside because of the frequent travel his job required. In the early 1980s, Mr. Laflin co-wrote two musical comedies that were staged at Washington's Folger Theatre. One of the plays was a huge success while the other was a flop, says Mr. Laflin. "That sort of told me, 'Well, you can't really do this and be going to Liberia every few months,' " he says. "They're just not compatible."

Saddam Hussein's Hanging - Possible Geopolitical Costs for the U.S.
By: Don Sutherland |
Saddam Hussein wasn't termed the "Butcher of Baghdad" for nothing. He was a ruthless dictator who committed crimes against humanity. He was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis. He deserved to be brought to justice for his crimes. Yet, in a sharp detour from the road to justice, Saddam Hussein was hanged in what amounted to little more than yet another act of the kind of raw sectarian revenge that has come to define post-war Iraq. By handing Hussein over to be hanged, the U.S. not only foreclosed the opportunity to bring Hussein to justice, but also undertook a course that will likely impose additional adverse geopolitical consequences at a time when it can ill-afford more such burdens.

Dr. Evan Stark is Keynote Speaker at Gender/Violence Conference at Izmir University of Economics
April 4, 2012
The U.S. Embassy in Ankara invited Dr. Evan Stark to portray the U.S. experience on gender based violence and domestic violence issues.
Evan Stark, a forensic social worker and award-winning researcher, recently
spoke to over 100 students, academicians, journalists, activists, and community
leaders about the causes, effects, and policy implications of domestic
violence. His speech focused on domestic violence in the form of coercive
control, which is oppressive conduct designed to establish domination over a
woman's personal life. Dr. Stark notes that incidents of violence against women
are usually not isolated events, but connected patterns of assault,
intimidation, and control. At the conference, Dr. Stark conducted workshops
where he discussed with community leaders from Turkey and around the world
about best practices for domestic violence awareness and prevention. With a
broadened perspective of violence against women, participants said they left
the conference inspired to contribute to social justice on grassroots and
policy levels.

Bringing the homeless in
By: Joyia Emard Gold Country News Service
Steve Davis, of Loomis, is doing his part to help the homeless in Placer County. Davis, a retired Rocklin schoolteacher, is one of the volunteer bus drivers for The Gathering Inn, a nomadic shelter housed inside local churches. Davis and other drivers shuttle up to 50 homeless people to different churches each night for a hot meal and a safe and warm place to sleep. "I have a very small part. I drive the bus," Davis said. Davis said the homeless live on the outer fringes of society. He sees his role as "giving them compassion and treating them like people. "They feel sadly about being a class of people that are outsiders. They'd like to be included," Davis said. "They're human beings. It hurts them that they're outcasts." Davis, who is a member of Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Rocklin, said all of his passengers have a story to tell that often includes a catastrophic event in their lives that leads to alcoholism. Some, he said, are mentally ill and others have just fallen on hard times and are out of work. Many, he said, come from very dysfunctional families. "What is surprising is how close you or I could be to their situation. I had a woman on the bus who was a San Francisco socialite. Her husband developed cancer and they spent their entire fortune on his medical care. When he died, she got depressed and began drinking and became an alcoholic." Davis said drivers pick up the homeless at a Roseville location, where they can shower and get clean clothes, then drive them to a church. The guests are picked up in the morning and returned to Roseville. The Gathering Inn serves the homeless in Western Placer County, which includes the cities of Roseville, Loomis, Rocklin and Auburn. According to the organization's Web site, a network of 60 churches act as inns for the homeless and provide them "with access to showering, clean clothes, hot meals and a place to relax." "It's a temporary shelter. We try to transition them to getting services and housing. There are always new faces," Davis said. Davis said those faces include families with children. According to Liz Nicholson, program director, The Gathering Inn serves 500 different homeless people during the course of a year. Davis said more bus drivers are needed to help ferry the homeless.

I should really keep up with my Blog but I have been very focused on writing a book about my cousin Robert Brouk. Robert was a Flying Tiger in 1941-1942 in China. He returned to Cicero, IL a hero, married and was killed in a flight training accident only three weeks after his wedding.
I would say the book is almost half written. The largest part so far is his war diary. Very interesting to read. Now I'm collecting photographs and more news articles about his homecoming and death. I received his Army Air Force Accident Report last week. I need to decide how to add this to the end of his book. There are photos in the report that should be added too. Such a tragic death. He was only 25 years old.
So the research and writing continues and I hope to have a draft done by end of summer. Until then I will do my best to update the blog with new research information on the rest of the family.

CO-OP OrientatedSilentAssassn87 | Sept. 14, 2011 | Review of Dead Island - PC
Aside from the launch nightmare, the game is great. This game really emphasizes on co-op. It can be played alone, but the game really shines with a friend, or two, or three. The game get progressively harder as you rank up and discover new areas. Likes: I loved the open world in this game. Each chapter takes you to a new location, but each location is huge and has many areas to explore. I like the Dead Rising weapon combination system. Some weapons are a bit extreme, but for the most part the weapon mods are not too far fetched. CO-OP is where the game shines! Really taking on these zombies in the open world with friends is so fun. Dislikes: As you rank up, so do the Zombies, so there never is a true sense of being far superior to the zombies. Yes this is challenging, but when a Zombie needs 5 hits to the face with a mace, it just breaks the vibe of the game. While I said that CO-OP is where its at, I think it can rely a bit too much on it. Some of the quests are really spread out across long distances and really make you wish your friends were on if you happen to play while they are not on.
Diverse and FunSilentAssassn87 | Sept. 2, 2011 | Review of Deus Ex Human Revolution (1) - PC
I'm new to the Deus Ex scene, so I can't comment about how this game in the series stands up to the rest, but I can say that I enjoyed this game very much. I'll start off with what I liked about the game. Pros: The fact that I can play this game entirely stealthy, or duck and shoot was great. I really enjoyed my first run through the game mixing both stealth and action in when I saw fit. The customization options were great and really seemed diverse for certain playing styles. If you were going to play the game without shooting anyone, then you could use your upgrade points where they would be better suited. The overall gamplay didn't really feel repetitive, or boring. There were always new ways to approach every area. Cons: This game doesn't feature a new game +. It really would have been nice to replay the game with a character that that already suited my play style, or at lease be able relocate upgrade points for a different build, but sadly that feature is not present. The story can seem a bit hard to follow and feels a bit cheesy at times, but the gameplay really makes up for it. Overall, I really enjoyed this game and see myself playing through it over and over developing my character differently each time.

Dorothy Elliott Regains Independent Living Through California Care Center Outpatient Therapy
Tuesday, October 25, 2011
A fall caused Dorothy Elliott to have to move in with her daughter. But through the outpatient therapy at California Care Center, Elliott is regaining her independence.
"She had fallen and came in here for physical therapy to strengthen her walking and balance," Heather Wolfe, occupational therapist at California Care Center, said. "She has also participated in occupational therapy to help her go home again safely doing cooking and cleaning home improvement type tasks."

Who Is Middle Class?
You get a very different picture of the world depending on whose definition you use.
Of course, you can stretch a dollar a lot further in some countries than others: Someone making $5 a day in Namibia is in relatively better economic shape than someone making the same amount in Belgium. Differences in purchasing power between countries and currencies make it difficult to come up with a common definition for what makes someone middle class.
Some have even argued we should ignore income entirely and look at purchases instead. Shimelse Ali and Uri Dadush of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace say the ability to buy a car is the best indication of middle class-ness. (Using this method yields a much larger middle class than Milanovic's preferred method—almost twice as large in the case of India.) Mexican pundits Luis de la Calle and Luis Rubio base their argument that Mexico has become a middle class society on people's access to technology such as cellphones.
Birdsall argues that a sense of economic security is what makes someone middle class: You've crossed the line when you no longer have to worry about falling back into poverty. She notes in a recent blog post that Mohamed Bouazizi, the Tunisian street vendor whose self-immolation set off the Arab Spring, lived on about $5 a day at the time, making him middle class according to a number of traditional definitions. While he was not living in what's generally considered abject poverty, his situation was precarious enough that he was facing economic oblivion after the police confiscated his cart.
This sense of security may be possible to quantify. Having looked at household survey data for Latin America, Birdsall argues that a rough but more reasonable standard for that region would be $10 a day.
"When you get to $2, you are still really poor," she says. "You are not secure at $2 even in really poor countries. At least in Latin America, it's only when you get per person something like $10 that you're reasonably secure from being thrown back into poverty. Until you get to $10, you're kind of bouncing around."
Her research found that at $10, people had only about a 10 percent chance of falling below the poverty line within three to five years. At $5 a day, there's a 40 percent chance.
Changing our standards to something close to this line would force us to adjust our expectations for global growth. "In the developing world, for the next 20 years, most people will still be below $10," Birdsall says. "They won't be middle class except in the mythology that $2 is middle class." The Times of India has pointed out that going by Birdsall's definition, India—one of the most-touted economic growth stories of the past 20 years—has literally no middle class: "everyone at over $10 a day is in the top 5 percent of the country."
But this view of the world isn't really as pessimistic as it sounds. "It's real that people around the median of global income have gained during the era of globalization, almost doubled their income," says Milanovic. "The problem is that when people use the term middle class, they imply a middle class at the U.S. level."
The notion of the United States as a middle-class country, with the health of both its democracy and economy rooted in the strength of that class, has been fundamental to America's self-image since at least the time of de Tocqueville, and the much mythologized middle class features in the political rhetoric of both parties. The fact that that middle class is feeling particularly insecure at the moment is one reason why certain debonair French economists are burning up the best-seller lists.
Talking about a "global middle class" can imply an emerging population of people in the developing world who will live and spend like Americans or Europeans. Despite the incredible reductions in absolute poverty we've seen in recent years and the economic stumbles of America and Europe, we're still a long way from that world.

By Zoe Eisenberg
A recent Century 21 survey found that 33 percent of buyers currently searching for a home have been on the hunt for more than a year.
According to the survey, 33 percent of those searching for a home have been hunting for over a year, and 67 percent have been searching for up to a year. Of those looking, 42 percent have made an offer in the past six months, while only 11 percent have had their offers accepted.
If you have clients who are struggling to close on a deal, here are a few tips to both encourage them, and ensure their success:
Get Them in a Decision-Making Mindset
In terms of transaction success, there is nothing worse than waffling. One of the most important things you can do for your buyer is to get them into a decision-making mindset, real estate coach Verl Workman notes.
Workman suggests the following dialogue: "If we go out and look at homes on Saturday and you find one you like, are you ready to start making offers?"
If the answer is no, don't take them to see the homes. This will force them to be serious before they begin looking, will improve their chances of actually landing a home, and won't waste anyone's time.

2014 Topps Valor Football Preview
Topps Valor makes its triumphant return after taking a break in 2013. The 2012 product impressed most collectors with its unique aesthetic styling, beautiful patch autographs, and clever packaging.

Andrew Luck 2012 Upper Deck Redemption Information

2013-14 Panini Crusade Basketball Review
At the end of May, Panini released Crusade Basketball for its sophomore season.

Quantum Football released a few months ago to mixed reviews. Collectors unanimously applauded the inspired card design throughout the set, most notably the "Signature Patch" cards.

George Springer Autographs coming to Topps Products in 2014
Boomshakalaka!!! He's on Fire!!! Although this term became famous in the basketball world during the NBA Jam craze of the late 1990s, the same fiery description may be used on the Houston Astros' blue chip prospect, George Springer.

The Spanish retook the island in 1633, but continued to be harassed by the Dutch. The Spanish finally relinquished Saint Martin to the French and Dutch, who divided it between themselves in 1648. Friction between the two sides caused the border to frequently fluctuate over the next two centuries, with the French eventually holding the greater portion of the island (about 57%). The cultivation of sugar cane introduced African slavery to the island in the late 18th century; the practice was not abolished until 1848. The island became a free port in 1939; the tourism industry was dramatically expanded during the 1970s and 1980s. In 2003, the populace of Saint Martin voted to secede from Guadeloupe and in 2007, the northern portion of the island became a French overseas collectivity. In 2010, the southern Dutch portion of the island became the independent nation of Sint Maarten within the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

In 2006, Shane J. discovered he had a broken back, the cause of which was a medical mystery. At the same time, he was suddenly racked with severe muscle spasms and seizures. Shane endured a life of pain for 18 months until he was diagnosed with Stiff-Person Syndrome (SPS)–a rare neurological disorder. There is no cure and the cause is not known. The resilience, determination, and resolve of rare disease patients go unmatched. Working through intense pain, Shane fought back against his disease and broke through SPS barrier after barrier until he decided to fulfill a lifelong dream and run the Boston Marathon. read more >

I am 6 1/2 weeks and noticed this afternoon, when I had a bowel movement that I had a little bright red blood from my vagina. The same things happened about 9 days ago. I haven't had any cramping, but with this being my first pregnancy I am a little worried. I called my Dr.'s nurse and she said just to rest and drink fluids and to call her if I started to cramp or the bleeding continued. Has anybody else experianced this? Should I be worried?

I also had bright red to brown spotting after a bowel movement for the past week. But only with the bowel movement. I called the dr. and they had me go for an ultrasound to give me a clear state of mind. We saw the heartbeat and everything was fine. It is so nerve racking.posted 03/27/2008 by teacher421
I'm also concerned - if I have a bm where I have to push a little too much, I have a little blood from my vagina, but I also have a retroverted uterus.posted 01/10/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
My niece had tha same problem, she bleed at 5 weeks. Basically her doctor told her that it is sort of like a menstrual cycle. Some women tend to bleed in their first couple of months while some bleed every month during their pregnancy. As lond as you are resting and drinking and eating with no cramping you should be fine...posted 10/29/2007 by Izabelle1201

Fundamentalist Christian
Islam is not the "peace loving" religion that you have been told it is time and again since 9/11. The only peace that is loved by true Muslims is the kind that involves the eradication of infidels (that's us!). The press, and anyone whose livelihood is decided by votes, tries to separate Fundamentalist Islam from the "mainstream" variant, but this separation is imagined. Instead of two kinds of Islam, there are varying degrees of belief.
You have some Muslims that are INO (in name only). These are the most "mainstream" as they pick and choose which tenets they will follow. They like to belong to something or social pressures require it. They probably go to a mosque that is very self-help-y. They know little of the Qur'an or what their religion actually stands for.
The next degree of Muslims are the largest group both here and abroad. They have studied the Qur'an and know, at least partly, what the goals of their religion are. Most of them believe what they are taught in their "real" mosques. They, either secretly or overtly, believe that Islam must conquer the rest of the world. Most of them do not, however, go around killing infidels. They leave that to others, but support the mission fully. They undoubtedly feel some guilt for not joining the "jihad" themselves. You can see examples of this by the celebrations that take place when someone is "martyred" while trying to kill infidels. These murderers are made into heroes.
The last group is often referred to as Fundamentalist Islam, Militant Islam, or, as I like to say, terrorists. These Muslims are die hard adherents to the tenets of Islam. They are daily in the mosques and consider us to be nothing more than filthy animals for the slaughter. They are ready and willing to support or join the jihad in any way they can.
The term "Fundamentalist" has a negative connotation especially in today's mainstream culture. This age of tolerance does not allow room for concrete belief or absolutism. It's OK to be a Muslim, but not a Fundamentalist Muslim. Just as it is permissible to say that your a Christian as long as you are not a Fundamentalist one. Bernard Lewis, a leading historian of Islam, has this to say of Islamic Fundamentalism:
The use of this term is established and must be accepted, but it remains unfortunate and can be misleading. "Fundamentalist" is a Christian term. It seems to have come into use in the early years of this century, and denotes certain Protestant churches and organizations, more particularly those that maintain the literal divine origin and inerrancy of the Bible. In this they oppose the liberal and modernist theologians, who tend to a more critical, historical view of Scripture. Among Muslim theologians there is as yet no such liberal or modernist approach to the Qur'an, and all Muslims, in their attitude to the text of the Qur'an, are in principle at least Fundamentalists.
Since old Bernard brought Christianity into this debate, let's begin to draw the parallels between Islam and Christianity. A lot of people that call themselves Christians today are INO. They don't fully buy the atheism argument, but don't, really, follow Christianity either. They believe what they want, when they want. They pick and choose which parts of the Bible to follow. Thou shalt not kill is an obvious one that all can agree to, but what about adultery, homosexuality, or idol worship (materialism)? What's their view on evolution?
Next we have Christians who believe, but fail to act. They (I should say WE) know the truth yet continue to make the wrong decisions regarding it. These Christians are so disenfranchised by the first group that they are starting to abandon the name "Christians". Most of my readers fall into this category. We are regular Christians. We believe the right things, we even say the right things, but we make little or no impact on the world. We exist merely as spectators who may want to do what God says, but are cowards when our faith is tested.
The last group of Christians, as in Islam, is the Fundamentalists. These Christians set aside the things of this world for the things of God. Instead of terror, they bring a message of love and hope. In the place of Sharia law, they offer the grace of God through His son Jesus Christ. Fundamentalist are not wackos or extremists, they simply maintain the beliefs that the rest have cast aside.
In light of this, I draw two very different conclusions.
(1) Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. When Europe abandoned the crusades, the Muslims merely switched tactics. They are conquering Europe through emigration. Their "Fundamentalist" leaders have repeatedly called for the annihilation of Israel and the United States and the only Muslims who are peaceful towards us are those who don't, truly, believe. We can no longer view Islam with curiosity, we must educate ourselves about it. We need to respond to this threat, through evangelizing, voting, and fighting if necessary.
(2)I want to be a Fundamentalist Christian. I am sick of the media referring to Christian Fundamentalists as some back-woods, redneck militia group. Christian Fundamentalist should be those of us who live and die for Jesus Christ. I dare you to find someone who has made a great impact for God that wasn't fundamentalist. You won't be able to because the core beliefs, or fundamentals, of Christianity are just that: core and fundamental!
Are you willing to be a Fundamentalist Christian? Will you give up acceptance for persecution? It's coming regardless of what we do, but how awesome will it be to seek it out and overcome it instead of hiding in a corner hoping that no one notices that we are Christians?

During a campaign stop in Rockford at midday Ryan said Barack Obama voted for 428 tax and fee increases over the last four years and supported $14 billion in new government bonding authority.
Ryan says a result of those higher taxes is that the state has lost manufacturing jobs, and he says he would support fewer taxes and less spending as a way to keep jobs in the state.
Obama, however, says the votes Ryan refers to were initiatives backed by Republicans when the GOP was in control of the governor's office. He called the attack on his record a "standard part of the Republican playbook."

1943 W. Division St., Chicago
(773) 489-0009
We all make changes when we have children. Maybe we eat a few
more veggies to set a good example. Or maybe we try to hit the gym
(or at least log fewer hours on the couch) to show our kids how
much fun it is to be active.
But there are very few who completely turn their worlds upside
down to make it a safer place for their children.
And Suzanne Price puts them all to shame.
Formerly a senior equity research analyst, she quit her job when
she found out she was expecting and founded Sprout San Francisco, a
store solely focused on providing the safest, healthiest products
for children.
In her previous job, she spent years studying organic consumer
products and learning about the effects of toxic chemicals on our
bodies-and she knew she wouldn't let those chemicals near her
So Price, who was raised in New York, studied at Northwestern
and currently lives in San Francisco, opened her first Sprout San
Francisco store in California three years ago. She opened another
in New York in September, and she finally made her way back to
Chicago in April at 1943 W. Division in Wicker Park.
"It's a neighborhood that's lacking other similar things," Price
says of her choice of location in Chicago, where the store "grow"
used to live.
Sprout San Francisco sells everything from baby shampoo to
organic mattresses, and its employees have been trained to explain
the safest, healthiest options for your needs. They'll also offer
story time, music classes and other fun entertainment for kids.
And if you could only splurge on one thing for your baby?
"Get an organic mattress," Price says, explaining that
traditional crib mattresses are sprayed with chemicals. "Your baby
spends most of their time on the crib mattress, and putting an
organic mattress cover over it isn't going to help much. After
that, personal care products are important because their skin is so
porous, and it absorbs everything."
Danielle Braff lives with her two daughters and husband in downtown Chicago.

Victoza and Byetta act like Glucagon-like Peptide 1 (GLP-1), a small hormone that does three things: (1) helps your pancreas secrete more insulin during meals, (2) makes your pancreas secrete less glucagon after meals, (3) suppresses your appetite.
The new diabetes shots should only be used if you have tried (and failed) Glucophage (metformin). That is…if your type 2 diabetes has progressed far enough to require insulin (Lantus, Levemir, Apidra, Humulin, Humalog) injections or drugs like Diabeta (glyburide), Victoza and Byetta are alternatives that might cause less weight gain and less episodes of very low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
In fact, Victoza or Byetta may help you lose weight, which, of course, may reduce your risk of heart disease or stroke. (Note: the only diabetes drug proven to lower the risk of heart attack or stroke is metformin!). So, if you're overweight, Victoza or Byetta may be better options than drugs like Januvia or Actos, too!
If you feel that Victoza or Byetta are options for you, you should know a bit about their differences before you see your doctor.
Victoza vs Byetta – Side Effects
Victoza is better than Byetta. Many patients are forced to stop Byetta because they cannot tolerate it's side effects (mainly nausea). Rarely, Byetta may worsen kidney function or cause pancreatitis. Both Victoza & Byetta cause thyroid tumors in rats.
Victoza vs Byetta – Cost & Blood Sugar Control
Byetta (~$150/month) is cheaper than Victoza (~240/month). If cost is a significant concern, consider using insulin instead. Insulin is 2-5 times cheaper than Victoza or Byetta.
Victoza lowers A1c slightly better than Byetta. But, if your A1c is close to or lower than 8%, Byetta may do a better job. Why? Byetta lowers postprandial blood sugar (your blood sugar 1-2 hours after a meal) better than Victoza. Lowering postprandial blood sugar is especially effective for lowering A1C that is close to normal.
Major Advantages of Victoza & Byetta
- You need to inject Victoza once daily; patients taking Byetta require two injections every day.
- Victoza lowers fasting blood sugar better; Byetta lowers postprandial (after-meal) blood sugar better.
- Victoza and Byetta do not cause weight gain and they cause less episodes of hypoglycemia than insulin. Insulin, when used properly, will likely provide better control of blood sugar, though.
Byetta Receives Expanded Approval from FDA, as Reported by DiabeticLive.com (prweb.com)
