Cancer Has a Sweet Tooth! New Research Names Sugar a Detector for Cancer Cells
If you haven't already, now may be a good time to decrease your consumption of processed sugar. New research published in the journal Nature Medicine shows a link between processed sugar and cancer cells. Though it is not the first study to find a correlation between the two, this particular study is the first to suggest sugar as a way to detect cancer in the body.
The detection method, called glucose chemical exchange saturation transfer (glucoCEST), was discovered when scientists from University College London were experimenting with a new cancer detection method involving a unique form of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The scientists programmed an MRI scanner to look specifically for glucose, and found that cancer tumors lit up brightly when scanned in this way due to their high sugar content. "The method uses an injection of normal sugar and could offer a cheap, safe alternative to existing methods for detecting tumors, which require the injection of radioactive material," said Dr. Simon Walker-Samuel, the lead researcher of the study in a release.

Acknowledgements: The GMO Panel wishes to thank Thomas Frenzel, Boet Glandorf, Esther Kok, Gijs Kleter and Richard Phipps for their contribution to the opinion. Type: Opinion of the Scientific Committee/Scientific Panel Question Number: EFSA-Q-2005-047 Adopted: 6 December 2006 Published: 14 December 2006 Last Updated: 14 December 2006. This version replaces the previous one/s. Affiliation: European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Parma, Italy Send Print Cite Note: Download Article (126.94 KB) Abstract: No abstract available Summary: This document provides an opinion of the Scientific Panel on Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO Panel) of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) on genetically modified LLCotton25 (Unique Identifier ACS-GHØØ1-3) developed to provide tolerance to glufosinate-containing herbicides. In delivering its opinion the GMO Panel considered the application EFSA-GMO-NL-2005-13, additional information provided by the applicant (Bayer CropScience) and the scientific comments submitted by the Member States. The application EFSA-GMO-NL-2005-13 covers the import and processing of LLCotton25 seeds and its derived products for use as food (e.g. oil, linters) and/or feed (e.g. meal, hulls, oil). The GMO Panel assessed LLCotton25 with reference to the intended uses and the appropriate principles described in the Guidance document of the Scientific Panel on Genetically Modified Organisms for the Risk Assessment of Genetically Modified Plants and Derived Food and Feed. The scientific assessment included molecular characterization of the inserted DNA and expression of the target protein. A comparative analysis of agronomic traits and composition was undertaken and the safety of the new protein and the whole food/feed was evaluated with respect to potential toxicity and allergenicity. Both, a nutritional and an environmental assessment, including a monitoring plan, were undertaken. LLCotton25 is derived from the cotton variety Coker312 which was transformed by Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer technology. LLCotton25 expresses the bar gene leading to the production of the enzyme, phosphinothricin acetyl-transferase (PAT) that acetylates L-glufosinate-ammonium. The PAT enzyme confers tolerance to glufosinate-containing herbicides (trade names: Liberty®, Basta®). Molecular analysis shows that LLCotton25 contains a single insert and does not retain backbone sequences from the vector. The GMO Panel is of the opinion that bioinformatic analysis of the DNA insert and flanking regions indicates no cause for concern, and that sufficient evidence for the stability of the insert structure was provided. Compositional and agronomic analyses indicate that the LLCotton25 was compositionally and agronomically equivalent to other tested conventional cotton lines, except for the introduced transgenic trait. The comparative analysis of LLCotton25 therefore provides no indication for unintended effects resulting from the genetic modification. The GMO Panel is therefore of the opinion that the LLCotton25 is as safe as its non genetically modified counterparts. The application EFSA-GMO-NL-2005-13 concerns import, processing and food/feed uses. There is therefore no requirement for scientific information on possible environmental effects associated with the cultivation of LLCotton25. The GMO Panel agrees that unintended environmental effects due to the establishment and spread of LLCotton25 will not be different from that of conventionally bred cotton. Considering the intended uses of LLCotton25, the monitoring plan provided by the applicant is in line with the EFSA Guidance document and the opinion of the GMO Panel on post-market environmental monitoring. However the GMO Panel is aware that, due to the physical characteristics of cotton seeds and methods of transportation, accidental spillage is unavoidable. Therefore the GMO Panel recommends that specific measures are introduced to actively monitor the occurrence of feral cotton plants in areas where seed spillage is likely to occur. In conclusion, the GMO Panel considers that the information available for LLCotton25 addresses the scientific comments raised by the Member States and that the genetically modified LLCotton25 is as safe as its non genetically modified counterparts with respect to potential effects on human and animal health or the environment. Therefore the GMO Panel concludes that LLCotton25 is unlikely to have any adverse effect on human and animal health or on the environment in the context of its intended uses. Keywords: GMO, cotton, LLCotton25, glufosinate tolerance, food/feed safety, PAT protein, bar gene, PAT protein, ACS-GHØØ1-3, human and animal health, environment, import, Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003.

Olympics the Chicago Way
Most American cities chose not to bid on the 2016 summer Olympics and with good reason. With the exception of the 1984 Los Angeles games, the Olympics has proved a big time money loser in city after city. More often than not, it has been staged more for the prestige – think of Berlin in 1936 or China in 2008 – it brings to regimes, particularly autocratic ones.
In Chicago, prestige is important, but graft is the real king. In Chicago, one of the most corrupt big cities, the Olympics represents, more than anything, a grand chance for a giant heist. read more »
Smart Growth Must Not Ignore Drivers
For the time being, battles over health care and energy seem likely to occupy the attention of both the Obama administration and its critics. Yet although now barely on the radar, there may be another, equally critical conflict developing over how Americans live and travel.
Right now this potential flash point has been relegated to the back burner, as Congress is likely to put any major transportation spending initiative on hold for at least a year, and perhaps longer. This also may be a symptom of mounting concerns over the deficit. Financing major changes in transportation, for example, would probably require higher federal fuel taxes, which would not fly amid a weak economy. read more »
The Curse of my.barackobama.com
President Obama's campaign was indeed a revolution, not one of policy, but rather a dramatic change in how candidates communicate with voters. It is a reality that helped make Barack Obama our chief executive, but now threatens his ascendancy as well.
It all started with Obama's hiring of Chris Hughes, one of the founders of Facebook, as part of his campaign team. Hughes' job was to develop an online community for the campaign. He was largely dismissed by seasoned political operatives more comfortable with conventional media and campaign tactics. read more »
The Costs of Climate Change Strategies, Who Will Tell People?
Not for the first time, reality and politics may be on a collision course. This time it's in respect to the costs of strategies intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Waxman-Markey "cap and trade" bill still awaits consideration by the US Senate, interest groups – mainly rapid transit, green groups and urban land owners – epitomized by the "Moving Cooler" coalition but they are already "low-balling" the costs of implementation. read more »
Alaska To Stimulus Funds: Yup, We'll Take 'Em
Earlier this month the Alaska state legislature, in a special session, voted 44-14 to accept $28.6 million in stimulus funds that Sarah Palin had rejected in May. Sean Parnell, Alaska's governor since Palin's resignation, says the money will be used primarily for energy efficiency improvements in public buildings.
The tale of the showdown between Palin, the state legislature, and the federal Department of Energy may ultimately reveal as much about state sovereignty under the current administration in Washington as it does about Alaska's internal politics. read more »
Millenial Generation Myths
1. Young people think and behave the same at all times. One generation is just like the one before it and the one that follows. False: Each generation is different from the one before it and the one that follows. Today's young people, the Millennials (born 1982-2003), are a "civic" generation. They were revered and protected by their parents and are becoming group-oriented, egalitarian institution builders as they emerge into adulthood. Millennials are sharply distinctive from the divided, moralistic Baby Boomers (born 1946-1964) and the cynical, individualistic Gen-Xers (born 1965-1981), the two generations that preceded them and who are their parents. read more »
High Cost of Living Leaves Some States Uncompetitive
Late this spring, when voters in California emphatically rejected tax increases to close the state budget gap, they sent a clear message to state policymakers. They were tired of California's high taxes, which according to the non-partisan Tax Foundation, consumed 10.5 percent of state per capita income last year. This compared with a national average of 9.7 percent, making California the sixth most heavily taxed state in the nation.
But if Californians were tired of paying an additional 0.8 percent of their income in state and local taxes, what would they make of research by economists at the federal Bureau of Economic Analysis that estimated that the cost of living in California, based on 2006 data, was a whopping 29.1 percent above the national average? read more »

Reporting for duty
Hello again, everyone. I'm back in town at last, having dropped Nick off at college. Six days, two thousand miles round trip (plus a side adventure for Janet and Jamie to Champaign, Illinois so that Janet could conduct a dissertation defense and Jamie could visit his place of birth while I attended all the parent-orientation meetings down in St. Louis), and one lousy, hurried meal after another. We're exhausted. But Jamie got a big kick out of visiting Nick's new home (three guys living in a walk-in closet, more or less) and kept telling everyone that his big brother was going to college.
I didn't have Internet access in St. Louis, so I came home to a raft of emails and the stuff of academic nightmares, namely, a course whose assigned room is clearly too small for the number of students in the class and whose syllabus is still in flux. Why didn't I have Internet access, you ask? Because Janet booked the hotel, that's why. And so my dear wife and I had the following conversation at some point between Thursday and Sunday:
"I thought you said, after we got back from Paris, that we'd 'learned our lesson,' and that we wouldn't travel discount any more."
"I didn't say that when we got back from Paris."
"Uh, actually, you said it as we were detaching ourselves from the bungee cords that strapped us to the outside of the fuselage of the Air India flight from Paris as it touched down in Newark this past June, so yeah, you did say it when we got back from Paris."
"Well, I meant that we weren't going to travel discount any more except the very next time, then. And besides, we didn't even get a discount."
OK, so the conversation didn't go exactly like that. But you get the idea. Anyway, everything seems to have gone well, except that certain items seem to have been damaged or lost or damaged and then lost in shipping. Janet did the traditional last-minute maternal-burst-into-tears, and Nick and I did the traditional father-son farewell knife-fight in the parking lot outside the dorm. Much fun! He has really learned to toss that knife from hand to hand with élan. We love him and wish him well. Send him telepathic support when you get a moment.
Now back to work: RNC blogging! You asked for it-- so it begins tonight. Thanks to everyone who sent bourbon. I will not fail you.

I have almost no experience hacking Fire Red, honestly. Probably wouldn't be very much help with that project.
The next project I've been working on is
Pokémon Spirits and Legends
, the prequel to this hack. It's still in early development and planning stages though so not a whole lot to see there yet.
Also, that's right about the banner. Since one is the player and one is the rival, the last one is the final trainer. She isn't in Mt. Silver though, she is somewhere in Kanto (But you still have to beat all the gyms like you would to go to Mt. Silver).

Creating Opportunities for Local Leaders to Catalyze Change
Kibera is a dynamic and changing community. As the needs of the community change, so do CFK's programs. We are committed to trying new ideas because best practices aren't discovered in a vaccuum. Together with the Kibera community, we try new ideas and explore possible solutions.
Kibera Worldwide
Started in the summer of 2009 with a generous donation of Flip cameras, Kibera Worldwide (KWW) is multi-media community storytelling initiative.
Kibera is often portrayed in the media as a place of suffering and stagnation, but Kiberan youths are eager to show their community in a way that highlights the energy of Kibera and the change that is being made through organizations like Carolina for Kibera. Kibera Worldwide is an outlet for positive storytelling.
Formal and informal skills trainings lead by both US and Kenyan videographers and photojournalists are held regularly to further develop the technical skills of the KWW team and empower them to tell their stories of change and hope.
Many of the videos on this website have been produced by Kibera Worldwide.
In the spring of 2010, the first set of Rubberbanditz landed at the CFK office in Kibera. They were an immediate hit. It was as if the bands were tailor made for an environment like Kibera. The bands are virtually indestructible, easy to clean, and entirely mobile. Developed by Ari Zandman-Zeman during his time in the Peace Corps, the one-pound gym-in-a-bag system offers a full-body workout without any additional fitness equipment. The unique circular design stretches, strengthens and tones muscle groups at the same time instead of isolating one muscle at a time like traditional weights or tubes.
CFK staff and volunteers began using the bands regularly and soon formed an afternoon workout group where participants each take turns leading. In 2011, the first group of official Rubberbanditz trainers will be certified and begin starting small for-pay fitness programs around Kibera.
See the bands in action during a community day event in Kibera.
Strong Bodies, Strong Communities
To help develop healthy leaders in Kibera, Rubberbanditz will donate a band to CFK for every kit sold.
Visit Rubberbanditz.com and enter discount code 'Kibera' to save 5% off your purchase and help make Kibera a stronger community.

Alas, under Microsoft's potential ownership, Zimbra would likely have suffocated and died. Plenty of Zimbra fans expressed their fears about Microsoft to The VAR Guy.
And for good reason. Zimbra is a wildly popular open source email platform. Plus, it's cross-platform and it even has a loyal following within Mac OS X Server communities -- particularly university IT departments.
Sure, Microsoft has come around a bit to open source. And the Microsoft-Novell alliance has won praise from selected enterprises that want to run Windows and Linux side by side.
But let's be clear: Microsoft's bid to acquire Yahoo (which Microsoft withdrew on May 3) targeted online advertising. Zimbra, which Yahoo acquired in September 2007, would have been chewed to pieces as Microsoft digested Yahoo.
So good luck Microsoft, as you seek alternative efforts to compete with Google. And good luck Yahoo, as you try to explain to investors how you let Microsoft walk away from the negotiating table. But most of all, good luck Zimbra. You escaped a terrible fate now that the Microsoft-Yahoo discussions appear done. Don't squander this new lease on life.

Dear Professor Sprout, Since my studies have begun here at Hogwarts I have been lucky enough to have made a large and diverse group of friends. Not only in my own house, Hufflepuff, but I can also count among my friends a few Gryffindors, a couple of Ravenclaws, and one Slytherin. Now this Slytherin is probably the best friend I've ever had. Oh sure, we can get competitive over Quidditch matches and the House Cup. But at the end of the day we care for one another and try to spend as much free time as we can with each other. However I'm afraid to say that some of my fellow badgers don't understand how I can be friends with a snake. My Slytherin friend is not evil or vindictive or stuck up in any way. He's just very driven to succeed and has high goals for himself, which I don't see as bad thing. How can I help my fellow badgers see the error of their judgments? Read More »

Friendly Gryffindor
Dear Professor Sprout, Regards. One of my close friends, who is a Hufflepuff, performed extremely well in the tests. All students have been asking her how she managed, and all of them are envious. She is tired of all those questions, knowing that no one really congratulates her without secretly wishing she had not done well. Personally, I feel lucky to not be in her place( seeing that i failed; but that's a different story) but I really feel bad for her. She is always frustrated. Is there any way I can help her?

Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down - A weekly column in our News Hub - Telly Buzz that will give the latest twists and turns in the serials brought about to capture its' audience. A thumbs up is where the audience likes the track and a thumbs down is where it fails to meet the expectations. So watch out every week to see Aye and Naye By the Crazy Creatives.
Thumbs Up:
Kahaani ghar Ghar Kii: Well..the entry of Om back into the Kahaani is definately a good luck charm for the serial. Rishika-Om-Parvati triangle is definately a watch out..the continuous tries of Shruti to bring the truth out in front of Rishabh, are being loved by the viewers, and now Rishika finding out the truth of Rishabh's past..we are surely in for some firecrackers at this diwali time.
Thumbs Down:
Kasauti Zindagi Kay:Bringing back the dead husband trick definately worked for Kahaani but not here. As much as we are all ecstatic to see Mr. Bajaj back..his charm is not doing the trick this time. Hiding the truth from him...Anurag becoming Mr. Bajaj..Prerna's outburst..not very pleasing to see.

Something I love about working in the yarn industry is all of the creative people you meet. Working with designers, artists, and writers constantly inspires me. One of my favorite people in the industry is extremely prolific designer Lily Chin.
Look her up on Amazon.com or Ravelry and you'll find dozens of books and individual designs, ranging from accessible accessories to complex cables—reversible, no less!
But don't take my word for it! Here are a few podcasts and videos from our collections featuring interviews with Lily herself:
Want to make your own Lily Chin original? Here are a few patterns she's designed for Lion Brand that I think are awesome summer projects:

Throughout this season, we're reposting some of our favorite columns by Barbara Breiter, author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Knitting & Crocheting, previously featured in our Weekly Stitch newsletter.
Every knitter and crocheter has heard of it. Most ignore it. The smart ones know better. What is it? Gauge, of course.
You'll see gauge (also sometimes referred to as tension) mentioned in your pattern and on the yarn label. Assuming you are knitting with the same yarn as the pattern used, the gauge on the label may or may not be the same.
The gauge on the label is only a suggestion…a starting point for the gauge of the yarn the manufacturer felt was best. You'll see a needle size noted too; this is also just a suggestion. All yarn works to a variety of gauges with various needles sizes; in fact, some yarn labels will give you a range of suggested gauges and needle sizes.
If the pattern gauge is different than the label, this is gauge you need to achieve. Ignore the label. Remember, the gauge and needle size of a pattern is only the gauge that particular designer achieved with that size needle. Your mileage may vary. This is why you need to check your gauge before beginning to knit the project. If you fail to do this, you may end up very disappointed at the outcome.
Don't believe it's important? Let's say you are knitting a sweater and the back should measure 20″ across. The gauge in your pattern is 16 sts = 4″, in other words 4 sts = 1″, so the number of sts you'll work over will be 80 (20 x 4). Suppose you are getting 3.75 sts to the inch instead of 4. Your piece will measure 21.4" (80 divided by 3.75). If you were knitting at 4.25 sts to the inch instead of 4, your piece would measure 18.8″ instead of 20. So, as the math shows you that even a quarter of a stitch in your gauge indeed makes a huge difference! The more stitches you are working over, the larger this difference will be.

Isolation of Fetal Hepatic Stem Cells for In Utero Transplantation
This research project is aimed at developing a new form of liver transplantation to treat birth defects that prevent normal liver function using liver cells isolated from discarded fetal tissues. It is now possible to detect many inherited diseases early in pregnancy. It may also be possible to treat diseases that prevent normal stem cell function by transplantation of healthy stem cells before birth. There are potential advantages to such a therapy such as early treatment of disease and a lower risk of rejection because the fetal immune system is not developed. This proposal studies a number of methods aimed at testing the effectiveness of transplanting liver stem cells into a fetus to treat liver disease. Often transplanting healthy cells offers treatment or a cure for many genetic diseases as well as other illnesses caused by viral infection or cancer. However, a lack of available or suitable donor tissue prevents such therapy in many cases. Fetal tissues are a source of stem cells available from elective abortions that are generally discarded. Harvesting liver cells from these tissues to treat patients with liver diseases offers the possibility of increasing the pool of donor cells that are available transplantation. This proposal studies the feasibility of banking fetal liver for transplantation.
Liver diseases caused by viral infection, drugs or inherited disease affect many thousands of Californians. Often, transplanting healthy cells offers treatment or a cure for many of these diseases, but a lack of available or suitable donor tissue prevents such therapy in many cases. Use of fetal stem cells offers the hope of generating a greater supply of tissues for cellular therapy. The development of prenatal liver transplantation would also offer additional means to treat birth defects that affect normal liver function. The successful outcome of this work will offer new hope to many Californians suffering from liver diseases. This will improve lives and save money on long-term health care costs associated with these diseases. Development of the technologies and expertise to bring these novel forms of therapy from the laboratory bench to hospital bedside will also keep California in the forefront of the biotechnology industry, will attract talented scientists and clinicians to California and will create high-paying jobs.

Roundtable: The Elusive Second Date
Well, you went out once. No biggie. But the next step is a second date, and that can be tricky. Did you like her — enough? Is there potential? Do you think he'll call? Whether you're a guy or girl, navigating the second date decision can seem harder than crafting a thesis paper, and the assumptions, fears, hopes and disappointments can at times be too much to bear. Not to mention that not getting a second date can feel like another round of rejection. This week's guests share their opinions on asking for, responding to, evading and turning down a second date.
Culture: Beyond Boundaries
Psychologist Dr. John Townsend knows relationships, and he knows boundaries. But when you've been hurt by someone, can you learn to love and trust again? It's possible, says Dr. Townsend in his book Beyond Boundaries. I sit down with him for a talk on staying sane through the ups, downs, backwards and forwards of choosing to love and live in a healthy way.

Additional Information
About AFODENICThis loan is administered by AFODENIC, La Asociación para el Fomento al Desarrollo Nicaragua, a Kiva Field Partner based in Managua, Nicaragua.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

So happy with Halsey Schools
My daughter has only been with Halsey Schools a couple months and we already see a huge improvement in her growth and speech, she's come a long way already. We couldn't be happier with Halsey, thank you!
Response: That\'s what we love to hear! Thank you so much!
Love the school and the staf!
Love the school and the staff. My sister attended Halsey almost 30 years ago and my cousin attended it about 24 years ago. I couldn't imagine my two girls attending any other preschool. As a paranoid mom, I never had any doubt about how my girls were treated. The school also prepared my oldest daughter, who is in Kindergarten now, for the skills necessary to be successful during her first year of elementary school.
Response: Thank you so much! We have loved having your family here for so many years! :)
By far the best preschool around
Halsey is by far the best preschool around. Jenni the owner is very hand on and really cares about the school. She is there every day and makes sure everything is running properly. The admin Jennifer goes above and beyond to accommodate the parents and the teachers are all very pleasant.
Halsey makes learning fun and the kids really pick up quickly. My son came home reciting Spanish colors we were amazed. The teachers have a lot of patience and really work with the kids.
Response: Gracias! :)
Thank you Halsey
Our daughter Annika started at Halsey when she was 2 years old and will be graduating this year. The teachers are so enthusiastic, attentive, and caring. They always have time to talk to us and give us updates, great tips, and reassurance being first time parents. Annika has learned so much and loves the art projects, field trips, and parties. Parents are welcomed to participate in many of the activities. She also developed an interest in dance in the Star Dreams program and plans to pursue this passion. We wanted to give a special thanks to Miss Jenni (owner) and Miss Jeri for making the transition so smooth. We like that Halsey is family owned and is not a chain. Miss Jenni (owner) is there every day and is warm and personable and knows all the children and the parents names. Miss Jeri has been teaching there longer than any of the teachers. She is there every morning when we drop off Annika. She always greets us and makes us feel welcome and gets our day started out right. She also lets Annika help her put away the Costco deliveries. Annika likes to help out around the school and thinks of herself as a junior staff. We can go to work and know that Annika is in good hands. Several of the teachers have been at Halsey for quite awhile and had or have their children there. This has been great for the kids and the parents having consistency and being able to build connections. We felt very comfortable the first day she started and knew we had made the right choice. Annika has made many friendships at Halsey and we have also become friends with many of the parents. We hope to stay in touch with these families and the Halsey family for a long time even after we leave, as many of us will be going to different schools. Halsey as set the bar very high so I hope her next school can meet our expectations. Annika loves Halsey so much she says she wants to work there when she grows up and have her kids go there. Thank you so much for giving our daughter a solid foundation!
Response: We are blushing! Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know you like what we are doing! We love having you and Annika here. :)
Halsey Schools is the best!
Halsey is the best possible preschool for my son. He's been attending Halsey since 4 months of age, and loves it. The teachers are wonderful and engaging. I couldn't imagine sending my children anywhere else!
Response: Thank you so MUCH!
Second home for Alexis
Our daughter Alexis has been in this school since she was 3 months old, she is now 3 years & 8 months, she loves it, all the staff are wonderful, this is our second home for Alexis, if I had another baby I will take it there for sure!!
Response: We love having Alexis here! Thanks for the review!
We LOVE the school!
Both my daughters love the school. Teachers are compassionate and caring. Great place to start a child \'s school foundation.
School is clean and up to date with equipment and toys. Activities are organized nicely. Parents are made aware of the themes of the month through the schools monthly emails so that they can extend what is taught at school into the home.
I love this website. It keeps me informed of all the activities that will be taking place. I also love to see pictures of my girls during school events when I do not have the opportunity to attend them.
Response: And we Love you and your daughters! :)
Halsey is the best! And I am picky.
Loving! Caring! Always responsive to parent concerns. Halsey is the best! I am picky.
Response: It\'s ok to be picky! We like picky parents! :)
The next best thing
My son came to the infant center when he was 4 months old. I had to go back to work after my maternity leave and being a first time mom, I was extremely nervous about everything, including leaving my baby at daycare. Elenita and her staff made me feel very confident and comfortable about the entire process. I'm so grateful for their careful attention and genuine care for my son and all the babies at the infant center. I know daycare can't replace me, but with Elenita and her staff I feel like it's the next best thing. :)
Response: Thank you so very much for your kind words. We are so glad we have made you feel comfortable and confident with us. We love teaching and caring for our families.
My daughter loves to be there!
Staff are friendly. More importantly, my daughter loves to be there, so that says a lot about how good the teachers are.
Response: And we love having you and your daughter here!

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

i just noticed my pressure cooker bottom was warped out like it got to much presure
i just noticed my pressure cooker bottom was warped out like it got to much presure
Maybe too much heat or a thermal shock?
You need to check the vent on a pressure cooker, preferrably whenever you use it. They are great devices, but can frag like a grenade if used carelessly.
I've been using a pressure cooker with a slightly rounded bottom for years. I know the pressure relief valve still works, as does the normal pressure valve. As long as the pressure relief plus is still good, I'd say keep using it.
But the kind of pressures involved, especially it being super-heated steam pressure, is nothing to mess around with. When in doubt, throw it out. Recycle the top and bottom separately so someone else doesn't think they made an awesome trash pick. Don't know about yours, but mine is aluminum and after seeing what sudden aluminum failure looks like with bicycles, cooking under pressure seems iffy use of alloy...
I know next to nothing. I am frequently wrong.
