Say thank you to a veteran on their day
Published: Saturday, November 10, 2012 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 9, 2012 at 11:14 a.m.
Since the founding of this country, men and women — to date over 42 million — have put themselves in harm's way to fight for our freedom. Of that number, more than one million American soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and coast guardsmen have paid the ultimate price in defense of the nation. And this doesn't count the hundreds of thousands who have suffered nonmortal wounds in war. The ones with missing limbs, the ones affected by the trauma that comes from battle.
Today there are about 21.8 million living veterans. About 9 million are 65 and older.
Last year, the last American military veteran to serve in World War I died. In not that many years, the last of the World War II veterans will also be gone. Future generations will name the final dead from the other conflicts — Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, Iraq, Afghanistan — long after many of us have turned to dust ourselves.
We are free to go to church not because a minister insists, but because a patriot died at Yorktown. We are free to speak not because of a politician, but because our fighting men drove Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo to ground. We are free to assemble in protest or celebration as brothers and sisters because men fell at Antietam. We can petition our government, we can vote, we can travel freely across the fruited plain without papers, we can have fair and open court trials because soldiers fought — and died — to purchase these freedoms.
The price is high. They have died by gunshot and at knifepoint, by bomb and mortar, in air crashes and sent in sinking ships to the bottom of the ocean where there is no light, from poison gas and at the hands of blood-thirsty captors.
The wounded may have prosthetic limbs, or be confined forever to wheelchairs or crutches, and the physically unscathed may have nightmares of horrendous scenes no one should have to witness.
We do not send old men and women to war. We send our youngest, our strongest, our prime legacies. Moms and dads are separated from sons and daughters. Sisters and brothers, wives and children are left behind.
Our soldiers may be shipped home in a flag-draped coffin. They may be laid to rest at a ripe age as a bugler calling taps. Each one who leaves us should leave an America that holds firm to virtue and honor, not sullied by ignorance or ignored by the generations to come.
Every time we see a veteran we should feel a lump in our throats. Our chests should swell so large and our hearts should pump so hard we can feel it in our ears.
The price of freedom is not cheap, and it cannot be paid off with a medal or a shamefully small pension. A "thank you" to a veteran doesn't cost one copper penny. How many would like to hear those words every now and again before they become the dust of history?
Take a few moments this Veterans Day to thank those who served us. Pray that some day someone will write about the final veteran from the final war.

College Hockey:Eagles Earn Heroes' Welcome After National Title
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. — It was a heroes' welcome in Chestnut Hill on Monday night as the 2007-08 Boston College Eagles addressed their fans for the first time as national champions.
The event, held on the Kelley Rink ice, was attended by thousands of Eagles faithful and capped off a whirlwind 48 hours that included BC's victory over Notre Dame in the national title game and a visit to Fenway Park for Sunday night's Red Sox-Yankees game.
The Eagles received a thunderous ovation from their home crowd, particularly captain Mike Brennan, Frozen Four Most Outstanding Player Nathan Gerbe and head coach Jerry York, who received a two-minute standing ovation before addressing those gathered.
York described the feeling that it was to board the team bus in Denver Sunday morning as the national champions, saying "there just really isn't any feeling like it."
He talked of the view of the Rocky Mountains, the first time since his team arrived Tuesday afternoon that the sky was clear enough to see the picturesque view.
"Driving to the airport, nobody had any sleep, and that morning you could see all of the Rockies. We had the trophy on the bus and it was just a great feeling of accomplishment," said York.
Boston College president William P. Leahy, S.J., addressed the crowd to open the ceremony saying, "Last Saturday night was special not just because of what was done on the ice but because of the players who represented BC so eloquently."
Leahy thanked the Eagles faithful that showed up in force not only Monday, but throughout the Frozen Four in Denver.
Athletic Director Gene DeFilippo was next to the podium, saying, "All good teams have really good players, but championship teams have something extra."
He then went on to call York one of the great coaches in the game and jokingly said about the 62-year-old bench boss that "he may not know it, but he's got another 8-10 years still" to coach at Boston College.
DeFilippo recognized this as possibly York's best coaching job ever. He also recognized Brennan as not only a leader, but a player who played in all of his team's 168 games over his four years at the Heights. He then talked of not just Gerbe's performance in the Frozen Four but about how he handled not winning the Hobey Baker Memorial Award on Friday, saying that to Gerbe, it was about the team trophy and never the individual award.
When York took the podium, he talked about the fact that it felt like there really should be one more game, referencing his enjoyment for being around the team. But he sent a message to that effect to each of his players.
"These guys have one more game," said York. "They have one more challenge to wake up every day and represent Boston College with pride in everything they do.
In addition to this year's players and staff, the event was also attended by former player and head coach Len Ceglarski, a member of the 1949 BC national championship team. Ceglarski accompanied the 1949 championship trophy to the ice. Six members of the 2001 championship team brought their trophy to the ice, including current Boston Bruins Bobby Allen and Chuck Kobasew.
Boston Red Sox President and CEO Larry Lucchino, Chief Operating Office Mike Dee and Executive Vice President Sam Kennedy were all on hand for the celebration. The Eagles share a close relationship with the Red Sox, which led York to joke that if he's not careful, "next year Gene [DeFilippo] is going to have us opening up against the University of Tokyo," referencing the Sox's recent trip to Japan to open their season.
After the 45-minute ceremony, players talked about the whirlwind tour that the last week became. After returning home from Denver on Sunday, the players had 90 minutes to change and unpack before heading off to the Sox-Yankees game. The entire team stood on the mound as captain Mike Brennan and assistant captain Matt Greene threw out the game's opening pitch.
Brennan joked on Monday that throwing the pitch was more nerve-wracking then it was to line up for the national-title game.
"Throwing a pitch at Fenway is uncharted territory," Brennan said with a smile. "That was an unbelievable experience."
One of the biggest questions now surrounding the Eagles is the future of Gerbe. The junior proved throughout the Frozen Four that he has the ability to play at the game's highest level; now it's just a question of when he'll get that chance with the Buffalo Sabres, the club that owns his rights.
"I'd love to see Nathan back," said DeFilippo. "I told him today that he's done a heck of a job here but he needs to do now what's best for him and his family and whatever decision he makes we're going to support him 100 percent. I hope the decision is to come back but if it's not, I'm sure that will be the best decision for him."
"I don't think he's in a big rush [to make a decision]," said York. "We'll sit down and talk [soon].
"Then Nate will have to look at all the plusses both ways. There are no minuses, there are only plusses.
"It's hard to be big on the big stage, and now he has."
For Monday, though, this was about savoring a championship and looking forward to building the next team that will try to again take that step. That's something York has plenty of experience doing.
"When I won the first [championship at Bowling Green ] in 1984, [the late] Bob Johnson called me and said, 'The best thing about winning your first one is that now you know how to build programs. You can refer back to something.'"
Said York, "Once you have one, it makes it easier to get other championships because you have the blueprint that works."

We have spent a wonderful week in the White Apartment. It is a complete place to stay when you are travelling in a car. Near to Pisa, Lucca, Firenze.
Host Georgio is very friendly and helpfull for any subject orproblem to get resolved.
The apartment is quite convenient and wel equipped with everything for your stay there. The swimming pool area is very relaxed and nice. The apartments are located in the outskirts of Lucca, but still conveniently located. A good supermarket Esselunga is located in 1,4 km and the historical center of Lucca is about 3 km. You can easily go by car but we preferred mostly to go by our bikes, which is probably the best way to move around, as many Lucca people do as well! It' s a flat area around, like Netherlands.
Het appartement maakt deel uit van een klein complex met een zwembad en een grote tuin met veel zitjes, ligbedden, ligstoelen etc. Heerlijk om een boek te lezen of na een dag Toscane even bij te komen. Het appartement voldoet, zeker gezien de prijs, uitstekend.Giorgio is een ontzettend aardige en vriendelijke gastheer. Hij geeft allerlei nuttige informatie over de omgeving. Kortom: Je voelt je van harte welkom.
The apartment is a great base to explore the area, fully equipped. The hosts are lovely and very welcoming. Good price. Would definitely book again!
The visit started well with a warm and thoughtful welcome from Giorgio, who is very helpful and readily available.
The apartment is very clean and extremely well equipped: air-conditioning; iron and ironing board; hair drier;microwave;washing machine; dishwasher!
Outside, you have the use of a lovely garden area, and a very nice swimming pool. Perfect!
Lucca is 5 minutes away by car and is absolutely stunning. Worth several visits. Florence is about an hour away and Pisa about half an hour.
There is an enormous supermarket three minutes away by car - very well stocked and very reasonably priced.
We consider Villa Gabriella to be outstanding value and can't sing its praises highly enough.
Excellent apartment with a convenient location 3 km away from the old town of Lucca. Clean and well equipped. Lovely garden with pool. Friendly welcome by owner. Supermarkets and restaurants at 1 km.
Prima appartement met een gunstige ligging op 3 km afstand van het oude centrum van Lucca. Schoon en compleet uitgerust. Heerlijke tuin met zwembad. Vriendelijke ontvangst door eigenaar. Supermarkt en restaurants op 1 km.
Apartment was adequate and nice in size for two people. Very nice were the landlord.
The only drawback were the damp stains on the curtains.
Apartment war von der Größe her für zwei Personen ausreichend und schön. Sehr nett waren auch die Vermieter.
Einziges Manko waren die Stockflecken auf den Gardinen.
Excellent base for our explorations throughout Tuscany. The town of Lucca is very nice and intimate. Friendly but not pushy manager / owner. Beautiful apartment. To bring your own coffee! Swimming unfortunately not used, because that was again just not pretty enough. Unlikely low price.
Uitstekende uitvalsbasis voor onze verkenningen in heel Toscane. Het stadje Lucca is heel mooi en intiem. Vriendelijke, maar niet opdringerige beheerder/eigenaar. Mooi appartement. Wel je eigen koffiezetapparaat meenemen! Zwembad helaas niet gebruikt, want daarvoor was het weer net niet mooi genoeg. Onwaarschijnlijk lage prijs.
very nice apartment, spacious, clean and well equipped,
stay in winter air conditioning in all very valuable pieces,
the very friendly owners
trés charmant appartement, spacieux, propre et bien équipé,
séjour en hiver climatisation dans toutes les piéces trés appréciable,
les propriétaires trés sympathique
Quiet but centrally located. Esselunga supermarket 1 km away. Beautiful gardens / park area. Landscaped.
Ruhig und doch zentral gelegen. Supermarkt Esselunga 1 km entfernt. Wunderschöner Gärten / Parkanlage. Gepflegt.

In a recent Fox report, a Philadephia single mother and her teen son stand united to change the zero tolerance policy at South Fayette High School in McDonald, which charged her son for disorderly conduct after using his iPad to record his tormenters' relentless harassment in the classroom and brought it to the attention of school.
Rather than address the flagrant peer abuse recorded on the iPad, this report said that the school officials made the teen delete the recording and brought in the police to inquire about prosecuting the teen. Most troubling about this story is that it appears that the teen who attempted to defend himself without using violence, (from a personal attack that lasted three months), was treated like a criminal while his tormentors went without discipline. The mother and son are prepared to file a civil suit.
This story makes one wonder: who is raising the children? Really. When we look the other way at uncivil and hateful conduct in the classroom and at home, minimizing it as a phase, and then execute zero tolerance policies on school campuses that mandate criminal prosecution for conduct that should be corrected as a part of socializing and educating our youth, we are essentially condoning a norm for cruelty that would never be tolerated for adults.
Lisa Ford Berry, founder of BRAVE Society, a Carmichael non-profit dedicated to education and prevention of peer abuse, is not surprised by this story. "I think as long as the adults who are charged with a child's well-being remain apathetic and indifferent to their suffering then if taping keeps you safe, do it," she said. "This school did not need to prosecute. And that is where they compounded their mistake which was doing nothing in the first place. If you have listened to the tape the filth those other kids were spewing was completely unacceptable, and with a teacher present."
Ford Berry encourages parents to advocate for their children's civil rights via the ACLU if they are not getting support from the school to address a bully situation that cannot be resolved without support from school officials. "In this case, the teen is a special needs kid and is also a protected federal class," she said. "And so the Department of Justice might also become involved."
Ford Berry also says she does not believe that monetary damages will affect change. She encourages law suits that demand district policy changes and discipline of education officials who do not comply with their responsibility to all the students.

As workers and consumers, immigrants play a role in the labor markets and economies of the countries in which they settle. The research collected here examines how immigrants fare in the labor market, whether they are affected differently than native-born workers during cycles of boom and bust, the role of immigration policymaking as a lever of competitiveness, immigrant employment by sector and skill, and the fiscal impacts of immigration. MPI's research also assesses the role of temporary workers and the labor recruitment process.
This report describes the range of policies available to improve immigrants' economic integration through language acquisition, especially those focused on getting immigrants into jobs or moving into higher-paying jobs. It assesses promising models and practices from Europe and North America.
Since 1970, the immigrant populations from Mexico and Central America living in the United States have increased significantly: rising by a factor of 20 even as the total U.S. immigrant population increased four-fold over the period. This demographic report examines the age, educational, and workforce characteristics of these immigrants.
Immigration is a prominent part of the United States' DNA, despite concerns about immigrants' ability to integrate. An examination of recent immigrant inflows shows newcomers to the United States are integrating well, based on language proficiency, socioeconomic attainment, political participation, residential locale, and social interaction indicators.
Illegal immigration is possible in large part because of illegal employment. This report shows the underlying drivers of illegal hiring vary based on the type of employer, the nature of the industry, state of the economy, and a country's labor market institutions, employment legislation, immigration systems, and even culture.
Over the past half century, migration from Mexico and Central America to the United States has been driven in part by regional demographic and human-capital trends. As the U.S. labor force became better educated, fewer native workers accepted certain low-skilled jobs. This report offers a look at the economic changes that have coincided with a Mexican and Central American population boom.
The global economic downturn and rising debt levels in all European countries have put immigration at the forefront of many debates surrounding public spending. This report presents a diversity of findings with regard to European governments' responses to immigrant integration organization, financing, and programs.

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: Keith Doucot, Kenny Ermann, and Daren Swenson
Category : Student Spotlight
This entry marks the first in ASH's "Student Spotlight" series, a set of interviews with current students in our program. One of the pleasures of meeting the students is appreciating the differences and similarities in their backgrounds and getting a glimpse of their life here in Honolulu.
Student Spotlight I
Pristine campus, 3rd best college dining experience in the country, picturesque ocean front town, really nice dorms: University of Hawaii? Actually that's how Keith Doucot, Kenny Ermann, and Daren Swenson describe their home college, Roger Williams University in Rhode Island. Yet they left all that behind to come to UH for a semester. Kenny found out about the ASH program on Facebook and invited his cohorts to come along. When asked how he persuaded them to apply, Daren and Keith agreed it didn't take too much to convince them.
Kenny said the ASH program is a great way to experience one of the many diverse regions in the United States and a chance to enjoy a tropical climate. Last year he ventured to the deep south, to Valdosta, Georgia, with Habitat for Humanity, building homes and experiencing firsthand that famed Southern hospitality and cooking. Hawai'i adds another dimension to his "See America" endeavor. French speaker and marketing major Daren has traveled more broadly, visiting France, Belgium, Austria, and the Caribbean. When asked why he decided to come to UH in the ASH program he replied, "Well…it's Hawai'i," a statement that's simple, but loaded with meaning. This semester is Keith's very first foray out of New England (excluding a Disney World trip), and his eyes brightened up when asked about being away. His expression at that moment spoke more than his words.
These three guys have been in school at UH for 3 weeks, but their list of completed outings is already impressive: picturesque Waimea Bay, secluded Halona Beach Cove, refreshing Wa'ahila Ridge Trail, snorkeling at nearby Magic Island, the popular Honolulu Flea Market, a weekend trip to the island of Kauai, to name a few. Keith has already finished his scuba diving certification, and Daren and Kenny plan to get certified later in the semester. They've also purchased season tickets to the Polynesian Cultural Center and are planning a trip to the Big Island in December.
But a semester in Hawai'i is more than beaches and sunsets. These students do all the adventures, and they have part time jobs and take full class loads (or overloads). Keith explained that it was overwhelming to sift through the huge UH course catalog and decide what to take, but his diligence paid off. One of his classes, "The Ocean Economy", a course not offered at Roger Williams, is specific and specialized, but satisfies requirements for both of his minors, sustainability and economics. Keith's major is construction management. Kenny has loaded up with 18 credits (6 more than a full load), and his schedule of 6 classes also includes "The Ocean Economy". Kenny explained how he's learned about isolationism in an environment like Hawai'i and its potential for sustainability. His major is also construction management with an interest in environmental sciences. Daren is cruising through senior year with classes in French, anthropology and photography. He's also an RA at one of the residence halls and maintains a very high GPA. Whoever said young people are not what they used to be hasn't met these guys. They are polite and motivated. They work hard, get out there, and crave to do more. "It's all what you make it," Kenny says, which seems pretty wise for someone just 19 years old.

Wait for the new model
Hi CLiKor, Since I own a 4GB Clix, which is really great (and I mean it ), my advise for you is to wait for the new modeleven more so if it will be available in the US within a short period of time.
The 30fps for video are one good reason (probably a better processor), the podcast capability another. And yes, I still know what I wrote when I saw only one photograph of the Clix 2the form factor convinces me entirely by now.

Thanks, I'll keep my eye open for online stores that have them in stock or when they are in th e-store.
Do you think the accesories for the clix (1) will work for the clix2? I imagine the cradle won't work because of the slight change in dimensions but I am more worried about the car transmitter since I'll probably buy that before the cradle.
Depends on the transmitter system you are using
Hi CLiKor, You are right, the new cradle is totally different and the Clix 1 will not fit at alland vice versa. But I like the reduced design of the cradle for the Clix 2 because of the way how they integrated the speaker.
As far as the car transmitter is concerned it depends on the technique of this transmitter.
I am not sure whether you use the same ones as we do in Germany. We have radio car transmitters for example which use the normal headphone socket of the player where any (not necessarily iRiver) transmitter will be plugged in.
The small transmitter is now connected to the player and will create a short (!) range radio frequency which can be received by any radio in the car, and you just tune in to the known frequency of this transmitter. So the source you are listening to on your car hifi system is now the brand new, stylish super Clix 2.
As this system is player independent it will work with the Clix 2 without any problem. I think it is worth to study some test reports in order to find a descent inexpensive one with a good sound quality.
But you should check at first whether this kind of transmitter is allowed by your local authorities and legislation. In Germany it took some time but now it is OK with them.
Haptic is right, the thing is lots of transmitters use just the headphone jack. If that's the case then the clix2 will work fine. However it it was made especially for the clix and it uses the sync/charge port at the bottom then it won't work on the clix2. The clix2 uses standard usb and not that special port the clix1 did. I'm not sure but I didn't think any radio transmitters were made special for the clix.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots...
My Deviant Art page - they make great wallpapers
Clix 2 release officially confirmed for Germany
Good news for Germanyand the rest of Europe. As it has been officially confirmed by iRiver Germany (Eschborn), the Clix 2 will be available in Germany soon. No exact date or prices yet.
In contrast to the u10 which happened to be the last D-click device on the German market, the Clix 2 will of course offer here full MTP and UMS functionality as the Clix 2 does worldwide.
By the way, this year iRiver will not attend CeBIT The leading business event for the digital world in Hannover, 15-21 March 2007.
So, we still have to wait to experience the more advanced D-click system.

Slender: The Arrival to haunt 2013
As a long time horror fan, I've always been fascinated by scary games like Silent Hill, Dead Island, and now the indie phenomenon Slender.
It's a trip to see that video games have the potential to be as scary as horror films, and the buzz on Slender has been growing steadily all year.
This game will also reportedly have another monster besides the Slender Man, and as the site MCVUK confirms, the writers of Marble Hornets have also joined the Slender team for the next game. Marble Hornets is a YouTube series based on the Slenderman games, with the series "widely regarded as the scariest Slenderman media ever created."
And indeed, with both the Slender Game and Marble Hornets getting high marks from fans for being really scary stuff, The Arrival could indeed take gaming to a whole new level of fear when it finally does arrive in early 2013.

I am in love!! That map is so beautiful! I have a thing for maps, but I especially love the amount of water in this one because that means more blue! When San and I went to Duluth for our mini-honeymoon, I became fascinated by all the art of sailboats and ships that we saw. I love them so much, so I really love the gallery wall with tons of them! I have a feeling one might make its way into our gallery wall we are working on for our living room.

Hi, I live in Massachusetts. I have always loved this photo of the Cape Cod map in the frame. I have never seen a map quite like it. If anyone knows where I could find a map like that, I would love to hear from you. Enjoy your stay in Massachusetts.

Hi , I love you pictures- I came across your wall because I`m looking for inspiration for our remodel on the bay.

I will take pics and post soon. I love the globe collection and I`m inspired to make a driftwood mobile!

Fashion and lifestyle designer Tory Burch has collaborated with Fitbit, a health and fitness company, to design a line of fitness trackers you might actually wear even if they were not designed with fitness in mind. The three piece collection is available at both Tory Burch and Fitbit. You will find a Metal Hinged Bracelet ($195), Fret Pendant Necklace ($175) and Silicone Printed Bracelet ($38). All of these fashion forward accessories have been designed by Tory Burch exclusively for Fitbit and available now for pre-order. Wearable tech is no longer for just the fitness crowd as proven by these stunning pieces that merge fitness and fashion into one.
The metal hinged bracelet is made of solid brass and inspired by Tory Burch's iconic open fretwork. It is as beautiful as any of the other bracelets we have seen at Tory Burch.
The metal fret pendent necklace can be dressed down with a pair of shorts or up your game with a casual sundress.
The printed silicone bracelet features the Tory Burch T logo on a lattice pattern and comes in your choice of two colors: Fuschia or Navy.
"The fusion of fashion and technology is important to the widespread adoption of wearable technologies," explains Melanie Chase, Fitbit's product marketing manager. "We believe users are looking for more ways to wear their tracker to match their everyday style, mood and activities."
The Fitness Tracker called the Fitbit Flex is sold separately ($99.95) and slides into any of the pieces. The Fitbit Flex tracks steps, distance and calories burned and shows you how you're stacking up against your daily goals. At night, it tracks your sleep cycle, helps you learn how to sleep better and wakes you silently in the morning. Access your stats anytime on your computer, tablet, iPhone or Android.
Now you can be both fitness conscious and chic all at the same time. Finally, a fashionable reason to hit the gym. Visit toryburch.com to check out the collection.

ELYRIA – A former sleep clinic technician was sentenced Wednesday to a year in prison for groping five female patients at the clinic.
Mina Roufail, 23, apologized for his actions during his appearance before Lorain County Common Pleas Judge Christopher Rothgery.
"I really don't know what to say, but I would like to say I'm really sorry," he said.
Roufail pleaded no contest in May to five counts each of gross sexual imposition and had faced up to 7½ years in prison. He could be deported to his native Egypt after serving his prison sentence.
He also was classified as a sex offender and must register for 15 years after he's released from prison.
Roufail, who lived in Parma Heights, was working at Superior Medical Sleep Lab in Amherst when he groped the five women, one of whom was 17 at the time.
Only one of the victims appeared in court Wednesday and rejected Roufail's attorney's suggestions that he had been fooling around. She said it appeared Roufail had a system for groping women while they slept.
"It's not a juvenile act, it is a sexual predator act," she said. "It is a sickness."
The clinic implemented a policy of videotaping all sleep tests after Roufail's actions were discovered.
But two of the victims have sued Roufail and the clinic arguing the clinic should have had cameras in the first place and that the clinic was negligent for hiring Roufail.

Laura Brown
While living in Brooklyn, Laura began yoga teacher training with Eileen Muir at Karuna Yoga and Healing Arts Center in Northampton, MA. Laura has continued to inform her practice and her teaching through intensives, immersions and several 10 day Vipassana meditation retreats, as taught by SN Goenka. She hopes that by continued and determined practice she may be of service to others on the path, linking breath to movement, and linking movement on the mat to a life of courage and sincerity off the mat.
After a spontaneous leap of faith, Kaitlyn found herself transforming along an unanticipated life changing, soul stretching journey. She completed her teaching certification with Jennilee Toner (Hot Warrior Yoga School, RYT-200) and has been teaching around Southern Vermont since June 2013. Breaking free from the mindset of the perfect looking posture, she reminds her students that all bodies, bones and minds are not built the same way and that yoga is a deeply personal practice. She celebrates the beauty of our individualities by creating vinyasa flows that encourage safe, self-expansive movement. Her focus is on tuning students into the sensations of their bodies with an emphasis on realizing, embracing and working with limitations. Since the birth of her daughter last June, yoga has taken on new meaning while she navigates the bumpy, yet wonderful, terrain of motherhood. When not on her mat, Kait enjoys spending time with the love of her life, their daughter and two (crazy) dogs, as they fix up their first house in Manchester, VT.
Paula Pelkey
Paula has trained in and teaches many different styles of yoga; from powerful vinyasa practices to meditative form classes to prenatal and kids' yoga. She has been teaching for 14 years and has taught in Massachusetts, Colorado, Maryland, Utah and Vermont. Teaching eclectic classes that pull from the many varied lineages of yoga is her forte! You'll never get the same class experience twice with Paula. Yoga has helped Paula maintain her sense of self after having children, yoga has supported her during stressful life events and yoga has provided peace in Paula's daily life. Find the balance between effort and ease with Paula during your time on your mat.

Most of the world saw stories on their news channels about the earthquake that took place in Napa Valley, California. Now that earthquake has been assessed at having caused around $1bn in damage.
"It woke me up when it happened and I felt the room moving. Vases fell off the shelf," says San Francisco resident, Tom Haglan.
There have, fortunately, been no deaths reported, but over 100 people were injured, says local news station, KTVU Channel 2 News.
In addition to the injuries, over 100,000 people remain without power; broken glass is strewn around the Napa Valley wine country; and reports are that 100 people have been injured. Bottles and barrels of wine were ruined because of the earthquake, reports the San Jose Mercury News.
"Wineries say the quake will cause serious losses, but the harvest now underway shouldn't be affected. The US Geological Survey believes total damage could be more than $1 billion," says KTVU News.
And in more news:
The San Francisco Chronicle says that already 100 homes have been red-tagged which means their owners cannot return to them (and that's with only a third of the area having been inspected so far).
Aftershocks were expected, but nobody thought there would be 50 of them, says the Los Angeles Times
Three of the injured are now in critical condition, with one of them being a 13-year-old boy who was injured by debris when it fell from a toppled chimney, says the AP.
Another 172 people were treated for their injuries in the Queen of the Valley Medical Center, in Napa Valley. They may not all have been there for earthquake-related injuries, however, says Newser.com
"Truly small" is how a US Geological survey describes the shaker. One official goes on to say: "We owe wine country in part to [the] earthquakes that created the terrain. We all want to enjoy the fruits of the quakes, so we all have to prepare for the downside, too."

It's 10 p.m. Your report on wind power is due tomorrow. It is not even close to being done. Your teacher has said you can't use Internet sources. You have a couple of books, but you need at least one more source.
You can't decide if you should start faking sick now (like you could fool your mom), go to school tomorrow and try to beg your teacher for an extension (oh, sure), or just ignore the problem and hope it will solve itself (it's never worked before, but...).
There is another option. Get out your CRRL library card, and visit Congressional Quarterly Researcher online. Congressional Quarterly Wha...? If you are writing a report about any "hot button" issue in the news, you need CQ Researcher.

Will a two year old that was weaned at 6 months remember it's mother if reintroduced? The mother is a baby machine so i get the feeling the mother will have a heart of stone by now but the youngster??
My friend has a mother and 4 year old in the same field, they can be taken away from each other no problem but my youngster had a particularly traumatic weaning.
Thoughts please!

How is the youngster when it comes to over horses, does he get distressed being left or has he bonded with any other horses? If he's the needy type I dont think it would matter if it was his dam or not!

oh dear, what was traumatic about his weaning?
if its bean over a year, i presume he will just treat her like another horse, but a friendly female one so might be a bit clingy
my horses are my medicine, without them im even more crazy!
Other horses; He bonded very strongly with my mare as a surrogate mummy, i spent ages weaning him off her, now rides past now and he'll say hello and not panic. He lives out with a chilled geldings with horses either side, he still mouths on meeting another horse. He's good as gold leaving his mate for up to 30mins now, attempting to take his mate away from him soon. all very gradual!
His weaning: He was taken from his mum in one go and stuck in a huge pen with 5 other 6month olds and then two weeks later i had him. He tried to rear over the stable walls, very aggressive nasty stuff. No gently gently approach which has mentally scared him which is why i'm so careful with him.
Thanks for your help!

Oprah's Bodyguards Detained in India After Scuffle
*Indian police hauled three of Oprah Winfrey's bodyguards into custody Thursday after they got into a scrap with local TV journalists, a news agency reported. The talk-show host had been traveling with both American and Indian bodyguards while visiting the Hindu pilgrimage town of Mathura, about 90 miles south of Delhi, according to the AP. … Continue reading Oprah's Bodyguards Detained in India After Scuffle

To many a Westerner, Chinese, Japanese and Korean are all but indistinguishable. The three languages are in fact unrelated, and after reading this post, you should have little to no problem recognizing between them.
The scripts
When it comes to computers, the Chinese, Japanese and Korean are often grouped together under the acronym CJK, and for a reason.
While they are linguistically unrelated, all three can be written borh horizontally and vertically, and all three use Chinese characters—hànzì in Chinese, kanji in Japanese, and hanja in Korean—which is one of the reasons for the confusion.
The Chinese language is the only to rely on this script entirely, and even then, at least two different versions are in active use across the world; traditional and simplified..
Below is the first sentence of the Wikipedia article on colour orange in hànzì:
Note how most of the Chinese characters are very square and dense.
Chinese characters are the oldest continuously-used system of writing in the world, so don't be surprised to meet handwritten texts which at first sight don't even resemble the example above.
Moving on to Japanese, the language has the highest number of official scripts in the world.
Kanji—Chinese characters—are used for most words of Chinese and Japanese origins. Hiragana—the curvy, feminine script—was originally used by women, but is now the main building block of the Japanese language, employed both for vocabulary and grammar.
Katakana—the manly, more angular script—is used mainly for loan words, onomatopeia, and transliteration of foreign words. Finally, romaji—the familiar Latin script you are used to from English and other Western languages—can be found everywhere, from product packaging to company names.
Below is the description of colour orange, employing katakana, hiragana, and kanji, all in the same sentence:
As you can see, due to its use of hiragana & katakana, Japanese is slightly more airy and spacious than Chinese.
As a general rule of thumb, unlike Chinese and Korean, Japanese also doesn't use any form of question or exclamation marks, but you may still meet them in some situations.
The Korean language, in mid-15th century, transitioned to hangul—the only script in the world made by an individual, for which the theory and motives behind its creation have been fully set out and explained.
Hangul is known as one of the most scientific writing systems in the world, and is neither based on ancient written languages, nor an imitation of another set of characters.
In South Korea, you can still meet hanja—Chinese characters—every once in a while, but the script is quickly becoming obsolete.
주황(Orange)은 색 중 하나이다. 이 색은 빨강과 노랑의 중간색이며.
Notice the many circular shapes used in hangul—these are almost non-existent in the other two languages and so make the script easy to recognize.
Also, unlike Chinese and Japanese, Korean has completely adopted European punctuation marks, from commas to question marks, and space-delimits words and sentences.
A good strategy when it comes to distinguishing the written form of South-East-Asian languages is:
As you can see, you don't really need to learn the individual languages to distinguish between them. As is often the case with linguistics, it's all about pattern recognition, something we humans happen to be impressively good at!

ZF-7233: Zend_InfoCard_Exception_Abstract declared twice in Zend/InfoCard/Exception.php
Zend_InfoCard_Exception_Abstract declared twice: {quote} if (class_exists("Zend_Exception")) { abstract class Zend_InfoCard_Exception_Abstract extends Zend_Exception { } } else { abstract class Zend_InfoCard_Exception_Abstract extends Exception { } } {quote}
Proposed substitution: {quote} if (!class_exists("Zend_Exception")) { require_once 'Zend/Exception.php'; }
abstract class Zend_InfoCard_Exception_Abstract extends Zend_Exception { } {quote}
This is intentional, as the Zend_InfoCard component is shipped separately from Zend Framework as a whole and thus the Zend_Exception class is not always available.
Well, but this is currently against the coding standard, and Zend_Infocard could, just like the other standalone package Zend_Amf, ship Zend_Exception with it.
Also Zend_Gdata is shipped as standalone package with Zend_Exception and does not use such a switch.
I agree with Ben on this. Shipping Zend_Exception with Zend_InfoCard does neither hurt performance nor add significant size to the download, and keeping consistence with the other standalone component can't be too bad either. Violating the CS for something as trivial as an Exception class ain't worth it imho.
Bulk change of all issues last updated before 1st January 2010 as "Won't Fix".
Feel free to re-open and provide a patch if you want to fix this issue.

The New Jersey State Senate voted Monday to amend the medical marijuana law that Chris Christie conditionally vetoed Friday. The revised measure allows marijuana to be distributed to ill children in edible form and permits growers to cultivate more than three strains.
The bill does not, however, ease the requirement that a pediatrician and psychiatrist must sign off before access is gained to the drug. Of the 20 states that allow medical marijuana, New Jersey is among the few that require additional hurdles for young patients.
The New Jersey Governor announced last week that he now supports amending the current medical marijuana bill to allow greater access for ill children. At present, a child has to see three different doctors before gaining access to medical marijuana. While the bill passed by the state legislature would lower hat requirement to one pediatrician, Governor Christie thinks that two doctors -- a pediatrician and a psychiatrist -- should play a role in the decision. Apparently, the Senate agrees.
Christie's change of heart occurred after he spoke with the parents of two-year old Vivian Wilson, who suffers from Dravet Sydrome, a rare form of epilepsy difficult to treat with traditional antiepileptic drugs. Despite receiving pediatric approval for medical marijuana, Vivian has struggled to gain psychiatric clearance. Currently, even if the tot is approved, she wouldn't have access to the strains most effective in treating her condition, as New Jersey does not grow strains of marijuana high in the non-psychoactive cannabinoid CBD and low in THC.
So Christie has something right: the governor supports removing the arbitrary and irrational limit on the number of strains that the one -- yeah, there's only one -- dispensary in New Jersey can sell. Right now, the dispensary can only sell three strains of bud and lozenges, leaving patients with particular cannabinoid needs no access to medicines that would actually help them.
The bill now heads back to the Assembly. It will become law if that chamber also approves the changes.

Get up, Stand up, and Lose 'em (Week 3)
Saturday, November 17, 2012
Welcome to my 3rd weekly blog of this thought process where I am making a special effort to be in charge of my own ability to succeed.
In a moment of compromised happiness this week I thought: I work way to hard to be feeling this way and I deserve better!!!!
So we are a little over halfway through the month, and I still have hundreds of fitness minutes, reps and activity minutes to complete to meet my monthly goals!!!
And...THE HOLIDAYS ARE COMING!!!! The good news is that I think I got all of the "caving" out of my system and have established a pretty good holiday eating plan in years past so I am ready to fight the temptations. The difficulty I have is keeping an exercise routine with all of the family gatherings and other various things I am involved in with the church and hosting...and shopping. I love this time of year but need to continue remembering to "Get up, Stand up", and take time out for me to get my exercise and balance my mind!!
So here is the plan:
TODAY (SATURDAY): A SP toning or yoga video as I promised to make up to myself earlier this week, and some dumbell work on my arms.
Meet my calorie goal and get my water!
SUNDAY: A short walk and some yard work
Eat right--Remember to not undo my hard work from today.
With the deadly combination of an unexpected Church pancake breakfast and Steeler game food and having to estimate my calories, it looks like I didn't exactly keep in range, but I was diligent about tracking even though it was a busy day. Some Sundays I used to just have a "free for all"...but that's not the case any more. I spaced out my meals and didn't graze.
Was not happy about what I saw on the scale this morning, but it is scary to think what how much higher my intake would have been if I hadn't tracked!
Find my prescription card so I can switch my vitamins!!!
It wasn't in one spot...so I have to go to the basement and dig through boxes...wish me luck!
Walk on break at work...it will have to be short but I will need it.
100 reps
Take a packed lunch to work.
Walk on break at work
Take a packed lunch
Had to go out of the office. My best decision was not drinking soda...but I could have chosen better.
Make sure I get my water!
Hectic travel day...but don't forget the reps.
Took 30 activity minutes for detailing my car (Taking advantage of the sun!)
Meet my fruit and veggie goals during the day...we are having pizza and wings with my brothers so I need to save as many calories as I can
I didn't meet the goal, but having this reminder to save calories definitely helped me do that
I really only had time to take drive-by bites of food all day trying to get things ready to go out of town, which also means I didn't have time to track.
Meet my fruit and veggie goals
Continue my annual tradition of skipping the potatoes
Meet my water goal -- Close, but
Remember to do my Post Thanksgiving weigh-in
even though it wasn't pretty
Make sure to stay in my calorie range Close, but
Go for walk...some how someway
Too many errands, and mommy tasks--not enough day light. Made up for it the next day though!!!
Go RUN!!!
Due to the cold temperature (30 degrees) and not having had time to walk and loosen up yesterday, I played it safe and just did 1 lap around the track. This was incorporated into a 2 mile walk that I owed myself from the day before.

When I was growing up, my favorite part of camping was the evening campfire.
I come from a big family that all liked to camp together which made our camps a bit like a large compound. Or a circled up tent train.
There was lots of watchful Parents, Grandparents, Aunts & Uncles and a big passel of kids that ran free during the day and at night, everyone would settle in around a huge bonfire where the memories and stories of the adults were shared.
As a kid I would sit mesmerized and listen to the stories my elders would recant and I can remember asking my Dad on several occasions, "Did that really happen?" to which he'd usually reply "A good part of it…"
I still love a good campfire story and every once in awhile I'll come across a writer who can capture via the written word the type of stories I grew up listening to. Today I wanted to share a fellow Outdoor Blogger/Author that has done just that.
Quill Gordon has already been entertaining us all with his outstanding writing on the blog:
The View from Fish in a Barrel Pond
And now his short stories can be found on Amazon and downloaded to your favorite digital reading device.
I bought all three and my guess is there is some tall tales, folklore, fiction and truth behind these stories about the Neverwas Nonesuch Angling Society. These stories are all entertaining, humorous and just a bit outrageous. Just as any campfire story should be…
Well done Quill Gordon!!

PDF (Verlags-PDF)
Magnesium is essential for bone stability, neuronal excitability, muscular relaxation and many other metabolic functions. Despite its fundamental biological importance, mechanisms controlling systemic magnesium homeostasis are only partially understood. The kidney plays a central role in maintaining magnesium balance as evident from several rare inherited disorders of renal magnesium transport. Recent studies shed new light on molecular mechanisms of renal magnesium handling and its control. Mutations in the claudin 16 (paracellin) paracellular protein in the thick ascending limb (TAL) of Henle's loop and in the transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily 6, member 6 (TRPM6) magnesium channel expressed in distal tubules found in patients with renal magnesium wasting and hypomagnesemia underscore the importance of these transport proteins. A study by Hou et al (J Biol Chem 2007; 282: 17114-22) demonstrates a pathomechanism for claudin 16 mutations that gives interesting insights into the function of the TAL. Moreover, Groenestege and colleagues report (J Clin Invest 2007; 117: 2260-7) the identification of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) as a hormonal regulator of TRPM6 activity, and thereby explain how mutations in EGF can cause familial hypomagnesemia. Interestingly, cetuximab, a drug used in treatment of certain cancers, acts an inhibitor of the EGF receptor and causes hypomagnesemia which may be due to the inhibition of EGF signaling.

6. Practice, practice, practice.
I never believed that little steps could prepare you for the big one. I figured that reinvention is like bungee jumping: You stand out on the edge of the platform, and you either do it or you don't. Now I understand that you can ease into change. Do something a little hard, somewhat scary, and when you succeed you'll be better equipped to attempt the next intimidating thing. After all, you don't start kayaking in white water. There are ways to break a reinvention down into digestible bites. If you're dying to go back to school, enroll in a course. If you want to start a business, ask for a leave of absence rather than quitting your job. If you dream of climbing the Matterhorn, try the Rockies on for size.
Trust Uncertainty & Find Passion
7. God isn't in the details.
Most great ventures arise in uncertainty. Did Lewis and Clark know they would make it to the Pacific? Did Watson and Crick (not to mention Rosalind Franklin) feel sure they could decode the structure of DNA? The hallmark of an adventure is not knowing the outcome, trusting in the flow of events. I'm an obsessive planner, but the wisdom of not micromanaging a life change crystallized for me when Helen Hand, who became president of Colorado Free University after the death of her brother, founder of the school, characterized him this way: "He'd cast his line way out there, and then pull himself toward it." I love that metaphor: Reaching for a goal without knowing your exact path, being open to the possibilities and buoyed by the belief that you have what it takes to get there.
As I heard story after story about ventures set in motion on sheer hope — from a charity to feed the homeless to a racecar-rebuilding business — I realized that the least successful reinventers were the ones who had figured everything down to the last decimal point and therefore were closed to new methods, new ideas.
Don't get me wrong. Planning is important. You need the right scaffolding to paint the picture of your new life. If the scaffolding is 8 feet high, you're never going to paint a 12-foot mural. But you needn't worry that you don't know what every square inch of the painting will look like before you pick up the brush. You're smart; you can make some of it up as you go along.
8. Reinvention has a fast track.
It's called a hobby. Find a passion and chase it. Whether you breed Percherons or bake bread, refinish furniture or hike every trail in a forest near home, you'll redefine yourself in your own eyes. You're no longer just the woman with the so-so marriage or the boring job; you're on a mission. And it doesn't have to upend your marriage or your career. I talked to a woman who took up tennis in her early 40s; three years later she was winning tournaments. Another finally quenched a lifelong aspiration by buying a motorcycle at 42. A third put her passion to work; at 45, she began supporting herself for the first time by painting murals and decorative furniture.
If a major renovation of your life isn't in the cards, know that you can still brighten and enliven it. A well-chosen pursuit has a potentially huge emotional return.
9. Singles aren't the only heroes.
Whenever I read a story about an unmarried woman who made a big change — moving to a new city, launching a business, having a baby alone — I awarded her special "You go, girl!" applause. I've been married as long as I can remember, so to me, flying solo is for the bravest, a high-wire act without the safety net of a spouse: the emotional support, the extra income.

I bought it in January for my wedding in February. I have the sleeves added and have extra lace if you want to add anything else. It was absolutely gorgeous and felt beautiful! Has been cleaned and no stains. Please email me for more pictures. IT was super comfortable!. The theme of my wedding was rustic vintage and it went beautifully. There is a slip underneath that is champagne color and then the lace overlay is ivory. I hate to part with it because it is so beautiful, but I'm too practical to have it in my closet and not bringing joy to anyone else. I will allow for returns in town (I will bring dress to you for in town and you can try it on, but no returns for out of state/town- sorry it is too expensive!).

Another of the Mega Monsters employed by the alien warlords from Mega in their attempt to conquer the Earth. Of all of their champions, Rhiahn was perhaps the most bizarre, and the most deadly. During the mass battle in Salt Lake City, Rhiahn repeatedly attacked Godzilla, carrying the immense reptile clenched in his gigantic jaws. More, it was Rhiahn who removed Red Ronin from the conflict, severing the robot's head with his anterior bio-blades and leaving Godzilla alone to face all three Mega Monsters.
Of all the Mega Monsters, Rhiahn is the most direct, preferring to strike an enemy with his gigantic jaws and clawed arms in a more obvious manner than the stalking and lurking tactics of Triax and Krollar. Rhiahn is easily driven off by injury, he lacks the extreme durability of Triax in this regard, but the monster is quick to recover and swift to return to the attack. Rhiahn is extremely tenacious in his attacks and once an enemy has provoked him, the alien monster will fight back relentlessly until one of them has been vanquished.
Rhiahn, like his fellow Mega Monsters, is able to survive in the vacuum of space without any protection. The monster's massive fly-trap like mouth is capable of a tenacious grip that is unbreakable unless Rhiahn himself can be induced to release it. The monster's most unique weapon, however, are his anterior bio-blades, cybernetic devices that allow Rhiahn to hover and fly in the manner of a helicopter, and which can also be employed as an actual weapon, whirring at such a speed that they cut through objects like a gigantic buzz saw.
