Barber Say syndrome has a variable presentation, with reports of both mild and severe cases.[1] Inheritance has been debated, with qualities suggestive of autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive.[1][2][3] A recent study suggests that at least some cases of Barber Say syndrome are caused by dominant mutations in the TWIST2 gene.[4] Treatment remains a challenge for both patients and doctors, and requires a multidisciplinary approach.[2]Barber Say syndrome is a very rare condition characterized by the association of excessive hair growth (hypertrichosis), papery thin and fragile (atrophic) skin, outward turned eyelids (

May 7 News: California Governor Jerry Brown Links Wildfires To Climate Change
In remarks delivered to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection's aviation management unit in Sacramento, Governor Jerry Brown warned that earlier wildfire seasons will become the new norm thanks to climate change.[LATimes]
[California] firefighters have responded to about twice the average number of wildfires so far this year – more than 1,100 in all.
"Our climate is changing, the weather is becoming more intense," Brown said in an airplane hangar filled with trucks, airplanes and helicopters used by the state to fight fires. "It's going to cost a lot of money and a lot of lives.
"The big issue (is) how do we adapt," Brown said ,"because it doesn't look like the people who are in charge are going to do what it takes to really slow down this climate change, so we are going to have to adapt. And adapting is going to be very, very expensive."
With the snowpack in the Sierra mountains at just 17% of normal, state officials are bracing for a long, destructive fire season.

Getting very hot in parts of India:
Governor Brown is a warrior, thanks if he reads this.
Western conifer forests could have survived global warming reasonably well had they not been 90% clearcut. Numerous studies show post logging hotter microclimates and even hotter stream temperatures (both up to 10F hotter), according to an exhaustive Oregon State Board of Forestry book from 1994 called Cumulative Effects of Forest Practices in Oregon.
That book contains over 200 peer reviewed studies, detailing how the liquidation of forests in Oregon has led to watersheds and forests going on new ecological trajectories. The study caused such a commotion that it has been suppressed- if you want to read it, try to get one on the interlibrary lending system, or contact Native Forest Council in Eugene (they have hard copies).
As many climate scientists have pointed out, it's the double whammy of attacks on nature and carbon in the atmosphere that make for extreme danger. Brown will have to go after the timber industry, which no Western governor in history has found the courage to do.
Part of affords the affords to limit emissions uptake means to prevent deforestation and to plant lots of trees. Which also means studies are required to assess, which kind of trees and which kind of setup is best suited locally. And this is a global mission!
Oregon and other western US legislators are still calling for increased logging in prime carbon-storing forests.
For instance, here's a new letter on this from senators to the President:

I suggest you contact Native Forest Council for more detailed information on this subject. Tim Hermach is the founder/CEO.

@ Governor Jerry Brown, every year will get more expensive, much more expensive, not only in California, this is a global issue needing global attention.
Angela Merkel is probably one of the best of a bad bunch but I wish she would get a consistent position on the relationship between climate and economic theory, still pursuing growth, emissions reduction and austerity which are all mutually incompatible, ME

RE: "A new report says the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is rapidly driving ocean acidification to critical thresholds."
This disaster seems at least partially due to the continued linguistic use of a rather meaningless description of a formula, instead of the accurate description of the substance: Carbonic Acid Gas (and the directly associated Carbonic Acid).
Dose determines toxicity.
"Angela Merkel is probably one of the best of a bad bunch …"
M.E. well said and you are probably right!
A.M. environment drive is not because she is really committed to it, it is driven because she has an ability to see ahead, how the shit could hit the fan on an particular issue.
Immediate German protests against nuclear power, after the Japan disaster, she changed her hole policy and took several nuke-power stations from the grid. Half a year before Japans earthquake she actually extended the running time of all nuke-stations.
Today everybody is praising her for abolishing the nuke-power age, how weird.
However, her reaction is been rather clever and not in the believe of a environment protection, it is to keep her voters happy!
Same is with solar and wind power, actual it is handled disastrous, the population starts mouing again because of the financial constrain on them.
Otherwise there is nearly nothing being done by A.M. for the environment or against climate change, political talking is cheap. People do not protest enough!
Back to the fire fighting issue.
Near Berlin we had a couple of very small wildfires last week, hardly mentioned in the news, fires which are not spectacular but unusual for the time and after that long winter.
Only few wildfires have been reported in southern Europe so far, they had recently some record floods there due to bad weather. But the fires will start soon. I wonder how bad this year will get in southern Europe.
A.M. should get Germans interested in whose wildfires in southern Europe, effecting the health of people in Germany as well, because of southern and the yet-stream winds. This puts additional costs on the health insurance system in Germany (other EU-states as well) and lowers at the end of the day the life expectancy of Germans.
Apart from that, pollution limits are regularly exceeded in towns with this additional southern winds during the EU summer wildfire season.
Overall the wildfires in southern Europe costs German taxpayers a lot of money. But it is only very difficult to put monetary-figures to it.
As we know, the pollution from wildfires travel far distances, I believe as well the US wildfires effect Europe also on the pollution side.
It is therefore not only an US issue, especially if wildfires are on such a large scale like in the US.
The present approach to manage wildfires is wrong.
Effected areas must be monitored if fires are developing. Immediate fire fighting action is essential to avoid spreading.
This would be much cheaper than anything else.
Governor Jerry Brown is correct, it is getting very expensive, if the present fire management is not being changed to wildfire avoidance.
The small fires around Berlin in the last week caused no damage, the local fire brigades extinguished them quickly the fires were only in their developing stages.
This is showing that observation, quick reporting and immediate response is the cheapest and a harmless way to deal with the threat.
Handled in this way, it will be overall much cheaper for everybody.

Reviews for St Louis Language Immersion Schools Inc
We chose SLLIS for our son's education for two reasons. First, we wanted him to be fully bilingual - not just able to understand his French father, but entirely fluent and academically literate in his second language. Additionally, we want him to have the wider range of university options - in the US and abroad - that become possible with an international baccalaureat diploma.
We feel lucky that such an exceptional school is available to us tuition-free in an otherwise struggling district. Beyond our family, we are also extrermely proud that this resource exists and is growing global citizens in St. Louis, Missouri.
More Feedback
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
... add a few zeros to the balance sheet. The school simply needs more resources, better facilities, more money to hire more incredibly dedicated and talented staff to carry out the work. I firmly believe in the team. They do much with little. They could work miracles with more.
Would you volunteer for this group again?
For the time you spent, how much of an impact did you feel your work or activity had?
Did the organization use your time wisely?
Very Well
Would you recommend this group to a friend?

This is what boxing looks like with smaller gloves. I'll guess that you find Corbett, Fitz, Langford, Ketchel, Johnson, even Dempsey and Tunney, pretty hard to watch, gawky and seemingly unskilled. I understand that too.
The problem is people expect punching in MMA to look like modern day pugilism.
First and foremost, unless you don't care at all about takedowns or leg kicks your stance will not be the same as a boxer. Even if you manage to tweak it only slightly or do as the Diaz's do and just plod forward regardless, you will either not have the opportunity to work on an aesthetically pleasing style, or will look the part and suffer for it.
If you want to watch boxing at it's best, watch boxing. It's sorta' like ridiculing a boxer for not going for the full Thai plum when they're clinching, or putting too much emphasis on the front foot and not caring to check leg kicks. They're redundant points.
Just as supposedly 'good looking' boxing in MMA.
Anyway, Pat Curran's technique is truly beautiful.

Executive Compensation, Trends, Executive Compensation Survey, Plans
Executive Compensation Introduction
Updated January 2011
The issues surrounding executive compensation – and especially CEO pay -- have been the topics of much discussion in Board Rooms, at Annual Shareholder Meetings and in the media, After a decade of intense debate, efforts to control executive compensation ((under Federal Law) took center stage when the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued interim final rules for reporting and recordkeeping requirements under the executive compensation standards of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) in January 2009. For the first time, the Federal government was taking a role in setting the compensation at private corporations. The actions resulted in an appointment of an Executive Compensation Czar within the Treasury Department to review compensation packages for companies receiving Federal assistance.
The effort did not stop here; further regulations are to follow with the enactment of the Dodd -Frank Financial Reform Legislation adopted in the Spring of 2010. This comprehensive package of "reforms" is now the focus of new regulations (that have to be developed implementing rules of the road). Unless the 112th Congress repeals parts of the law dealing with exec comp, the Federal government will have some kind of role in the issue. This has been welcomed by activist investors concerned about executive compensation policies and practices, especially at under-performing companies with outsized exec compensation.
In the worst cases, the focus of executive compensation packages has been upon corporate boards that are accused of being unrealistic, indifferent and in collusion with CEOs. What became the worst criticism was the revelation that too many agreements did not tie compensation with company performance.
"Say-on-Pay" became the rallying cry of shareholder groups and social and proxy activists as the hammer and anvil were hot and ready for hammering out reform. The Securities and Exchange Commission enacted rules for publicly-held companies to finally give a voice to shareholders through the proxy process on executive compensation. While the votes are not binding, they do serve to create an atmosphere of greater transparency and accountability of corporate boards to their shareholders.
Still the debate over the rules goes on; matters related to CEO compensation will continue to be the focus of this section. Whether you are located in the "C" suite or are a Corporate Secretary, Board Member, Investor Relations professional, shareholder or activist, Hot Topics Executive Compensation should be a daily stop for news, commentary and research.
Note: The Editors form no judgment about the level of pay and specific compensation of Chief Executive Officers and others in the "C" Suite. The purpose of this section is to fully air the issues surrounding exec compensation issues at shareholder-owned companies.
February 2008
How much should a CEO or the top executive officers of a publicly-owned corporation be paid? What is a "fair" compensation? Especially when corporations are laying off thousands of workers and outsourcing work to distant lands? When the middle class is under attack – see CNN Lou Dobbs' commentary on this? The issue of exec comp has become a burning question with an array of forces on all sides of the issue. When the stock market is doing well and "all boats are rising," the issue is not as much in focus as when companies (or a single firm) is underperforming and the executive compensation is seemingly out of whack. Out of control. Disproportionate to performance. Unrelated to reality. And other battle cries by investor activists, public officials, journalists, advocate organizations, etc.
Consider the case of Home Depot, where the share price fell as the CEO's pay package rose. Saying goodbye to the CEO, Mr. Nardelli, cost HD more than $200 million. Consider the exiting of the Wonderful Wizards of Wall Street, and their departure comp packages – totaling in the hundreds of millions' of dollars – as the wreckage they've left behind (in the form of sub prime disaster loan portfolios) causes real pain on Wall Street, and on Main Street. We still don't know the damage they caused with their financial wizardry – but the carnage is felt when home foreclosure rates increase dramatically, as they have over the past year.
So – what is a fair price for the Top Man (and a tiny handful of Top Women)? You'll find news, commentary, research and other useful content here in this Hot Topic subsection of Accountability Central, as well as in various content sections and subsections. (See Corporate Governance, Shareowner Activism, Socially Responsible Investment, and other silos.)
Consider this as you formulate your own positions on the pay issues:
Enough highlights and commentary – we invite you to follow the often-heated discussions and public debate on executive compensation here in the pages of Accountability Central.

- While both deontologists and rule - utilitarians are rule-followers, deontology explicitly stresses duty and intention rather than outcome, whereas the ultimate focus of rule-utilitarianism is on consequences.
- Another problem for virtue ethics, which is shared by both utilitarianism and deontology, is 'the justification problem.'
- There are two main categories of deontological theories in the literature: rule deontology and act deontology.
- Oraciones de ejemplo
- Classic utilitarianism is consequentialist as opposed to deontological because of what it denies.
- This distinction mirrors a major fault line in ethics between what are known as consequentialist and deontological theories.
- As with many hybrid views, the deontological and consequentialist components tend to pull apart, with each threatening to subordinate the other.
deontologist sustantivo
- Oraciones de ejemplo
- So, for example, a deontologist such as Immanuel Kant might say that lying is always morally wrong, even when it results in a greater good.
- Many of the leading approaches are commonly grouped into competing camps of deontologists and Kantians on the one hand and consequentialists or utilitarians on the other.
- When asked to justify an alleged moral rule, duty or its corresponding right, deontologists may appeal to the intrinsic value of those beings to whom it applies.
Early 19th century: from Greek deont- 'being needed or necessary' (from dei 'it is necessary') + -logy.

Duke named coach at BRCC
Published: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 at 7:16 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 at 7:38 p.m.
Former East Henderson High and Wofford volleyball standout Andrea Duke was named the head coach of the Blue Ridge Community College volleyball team today by BRCC President Molly Parkhill.
Duke, a 2000 graduate of East and a 2005 graduate of Wofford College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in French, also made headlines last year when she was crowned Miss North Carolina-USA.
She is the daughter of Alan and Brenda Duke of Saluda.
In December 2007 she graduated from the University of Florida with a Master's degree in Business Administration.
At Wofford, she was was the first Lady Terrier to earn a spot on the All-Southern Conference team.
She holds the records for kills (1,237), total attacks (3,543), service aces (199) and points (1056.5). These four totals are among the 13 overall Terrier marks she set during her three-year career.
Duke replaces Carrie Vance, who is now a full-time nursing student at Blue Ridge Community College.

Reports circulated on Monday that the French midfielder - along with fellow Saint Jay Rodriguez - were imminently heading for Tottenham and that they would be the latest players to depart St Mary's.
Twenty four hours later, though, the situation would lose some of its clarity. Club chairman Ralph Krueger gave a lengthy interview on BBC Radio Solent and denied that either player would be leaving and that any claims to the contrary were false.
Schneiderlin didn't take that particularly well and, between a brief rage on Twitter on Tuesday night and a transfer request on Wednesday afternoon (though that aspect of the narrative is subject to conflicting reports), it became apparent that his interpretation of the situation differed from Krueger's.
Evidently, Schneiderlin wants to move to Tottenham.
In recent weeks, it's been reported that Southampton value their midfielder at around the £27 million mark and, given the depth in that area of Mauricio Pochettino's squad, it's maybe surprising that Daniel Levy is willing to meet that asking price. On top of regular first-teamers Sandro, Paulinho, and Mousa Dembele, Pochettino has also inherited Nabil Bentaleb and Etienne Capoue, who are both capable - to varying degrees - of playing in the deeper areas of midfield.
On a basic level, because he is a stylistic match for Pochettino's brand of football.
The Argentine may just be three pre-season games into his time at White Hart Lane, but even just through those games it's become apparent that he wants the ball transitioned from midfield into the attacking areas quickly.
Schneiderlin ticks both of those boxes and that would make him relatively unique within the Spurs squad. Significantly flawed as a manager though he was, Tim Sherwood actually identified this problem before the end of last season and he clearly saw it as a major obstacle to the side playing with any kind of attacking temperament - so it's of little surprise to see Pochettino attempt to correct it early in reign.
Ultimately, the quicker and more accurately a team is able to move the ball up the pitch, the easier they will find space, the more likely they are to isolate defenders, and the more effective their creative players can ultimately become.
Pochettino - understandably - wants to avoid a situation where Erik Lamela, Christian Eriksen and the rest of his attacking unit has to constantly play into the teeth of a crowded defence. In a slow-paced game, the impact of those kinds of players can be minimised, but allow them to play in a more fractured environment and they become exponentially more dangerous.
Last season, those rankings may have dropped (5th and 27th respectively), but that's partly mitigated by Southampton's growing strength within the division and their subsequently declining reliance on ball-winning.
By themselves, those numbers don't mean that much, but when watching Schneiderlin's defensive work it's impossible to ignore the cerebral quality to that part of his game. Some holding-players are very combative and rely on their athleticism more than their ability to actually read the play - Sandro is very much like that, for example.
In Schneiderlin's case, though, that ratio is the other way around: his anticipation is very good, his understanding of how an opponent's attack will develop is very astute, and he just seems to possess a lot of game intelligence. It's almost a contradiction in terms to say this, but as defensive midfielders go he's very stylish and he plays with a lot of finesse.
Whether Tottenham actually get this transfer done or not, their basis for pursuing it is very sound.
Clearly they will have to overpay to sign Schneiderlin, but he does offer a genuine variation on what already exists at White Hart Lane and he will help Mauricio Pochettino to implement his style of football - and that's an opportunity Daniel Levy is obliged to provide.

I would like to create a partial class for my form. I have a lot of events, and it gets messy, so I would like to break up sections into their own files.
The problem: When I create a partial class of my form, say:
Partial Public Class Form1
End Class
Visual Studio decides I need another form for this partial class.
1. How do I create a partial class for a form?
2. If I cant do that, how can I break up all the events in my form into different files?

Made two times.Very good and easy.Good 5. star.
This was REALLY good! I was tired of doing chicken the same old way so I came on here and started looking.I stumbled upon this and was happy I did! It was super easy to make and tasted delicious. the only thing I added was that when I finished I had leftover breading, so I sprinkled it as a layer on the bottom of the pan. not sure if it added anything, but it looked nice. Thank you for sharing this recipe, I look forward to making it again!
This was SO GOOD! The only change I made was to double the parmesan cheese and I went ahead and used the optional 1/2 tsp. of salt. This could put Shake and Bake out of business! Thanks for sharing! UPDATE: It has been several years since I first reviewed this recipe, and I now have two small children. I make this recipe often and my kids love it! Panko bread crumbs really make a difference and I've found that I can really tweak this recipe to accommodate just about anyone's tastes. We still really enjoy the double parmesan and a double dip in the bread crumbs. Occasionally, I will add Italian seasonings or poultry seasoning. Thank you again for a truly wonderful and EASY recipe!
Very simple and straight forward recipe that is easily changed with a few spices. Thank you for sharing!
This is a very good baked chicken recipe. My DH said this is the recipe I should use all the time. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Cookin'withGas; I have been on a chicken kick for the last while and trying out various recipes that use chicken legs. I was delighted with the nice taste of the Parmesan cheese. I used Padano and it was great. I also added 1 teaspoon of dried dill weed to the mixture and used Panko bread crumbs, deeelicious. The baking time was perfect and the chicken turned out so nice and moist, and yes, your Shake 'n' Bake was so tasty. Thank you for sharing. Best Regards, "Uncle Bill"
This is a great chicken recipe, tasted just like fried chicken and not really cheesy but good. So I'll use this on days I don't feel like frying chicken.
This was amazing! Even with the skin removed before baking. I also subbed 1/4 c of the breadcrumbs for wheat germ to make it a little healthier. Diabetic friendly and we loved it, thanks! Went well with Easy moroccan carrots #71033.
Wow--what a great way to make chicken legs! Once cooked, they looked and had a similar taste to fried chicken which really made my family happy. I cook healthy meals for them so it was nice that this duplicated the fried chicken flavor without all the fat. Excellent flavor and easy to put together. I did make a small mistake of adding the olive oil to the dry ingredients but it didn't matter. I just pressed the crumbs onto the chicken while inside the bag and it worked just fine. Thanks!

Not surprisingly, prior animal studies have shown that strawberries and other fruits counteract the effects of aging on the brain.

Man shot near scene of Monday's 13th Street homicide in Covington
COVINGTON, Ky. -- A day after a fatal shooting on Covington's east side, police were called to another shooting incident a block and a half away Tuesday.
Covington police received a call about a shooting at about 2 p.m. near 13th and Garrard streets.
One person was shot in the arm and taken to a nearby hospital. Another person was taken into custody for the shooting.
Earlier in the day Covington Police Chief Spike Jones detailed Monday's fatal shooting of 30-year-old Randolph Hughes. Two men, 23-year-old Erik Avert Tucker and 22-year-old Reginald Davan Early, were arrested in Florence the same day.

Angela Rogers Ceramics
I am a Native Texan whose early influences and favorite memories include my younger years, growing up in Europe. Being the daughter of a career Army father, I traveled through Germany, enjoying all I saw, especially the many fairytale castles. Over the years, I cultivated a love for creating art. I improved my skills through pen and ink drawing classes, while attending college. Later, I studied oil painting under the watchful eye of Austin artist, Della Carlson, who I give full credit for my undying and everlasting love of painting.
My first exposure to the vast world of Ceramics was in 1990. Having been dragged along to a ceramics shop, in search of the elusive "Turtle Planter wearing Shoes", I realized I had found a new canvas to paint on. At first, I began painting on commercial slip cast pieces. I quickly decided to learn as much as possible about the entire ceramic process. That desire led me to apprentice for about a year in order to gain knowledge of slip casting, mold making, greenware, electric kiln firing and glazing. I purchased my first of many electric kilns in the early 90s, and in 1998 I started a new business named Ebbie's Pie Birds. The business was named for my maternal Grandmother, a great pie baker in her own right. As a new ceramist, I created hundreds of one-of-a-kind, hand painted Pie Birds, selling them to collectors worldwide. The Pie Birds I made were featured in two books, "Four and Twenty Blackbirds" by Linda Fields and "Pots In The Kitchen" by Josie Walter. .
By 2007, I was looking for a new challenge, so I bought a potter's wheel and signed up for classes at a local pottery studio. Since then, I have worked full-time to develop my skills in hand building, and wheel throwing. Through various workshops, classes and personal study, I have built on my technique of design and decoration. My interests have expanded into making my own clay and glazes at my own studio. I still oil paint. I still sketch and do pencil, pen and ink drawing. With the introduction of modern digital technology, I have found a new love of doing drawing on my iPad while relaxing during the day.
I have had many generous teachers, along the way, and I am so excited now to pass along what I have learned to my students.
Thank You.....

I agree a lower temp drop at the coil(waterside) is a good thing means you have good flow(water side)you are not trying to heat the water you are trying to cool the air. I didn't see on this thread...
No they are saying it is high but not much velocity. When all the boxes are open on a humid day their static is higher than normal as compared to a dry day.
If there flow measuring stations you need a flow chart for that size.
If they are circuit setters you need the slide rule.
I think they are all manufacturer specific ie a Bell and Gossett slide...
Have you ever tried BrakeKleen I put it on a shaft and fell on my ass when I went to yank the pulley off it worked so good, and it was a pretty crusty shaft and pulley, been using it ever since.
Thanks for the replies. I personally can't see it making much of a differance if any, but I have had 2 building operators swear it does. But I don't know how solid they are on airflow and humidity....
Not a waste of money they will get their money back in energy savings. Cross your fingers on the humidity, hope you didn't stick your neck out too far. You could end up a hero though. Why would the...
What effect, if any, does high humidity have on static pressure?
The way I picture this my head is in theory if you have 2 pipes strapped together with 2 different temps and the flow is parrallel the best you can achieve is an average temp.
But if it is...
Don't bother, just pin them open.
Yep, Sounds like it is piped parrallel.
If you can imagine the air and water colliding (counterflow) thats what your looking for.
The more rows on the coil the greater the loss in capacity.
2 row...
Is that what you union guys call a crane? I think it's the same truck that delivered the sod I bought from home depot last week. No wonder it cost so much.

From the Back Cover
"A more level economic playing field for poor citizens of cities and inner-ring suburbs isn't just some liberal cause. It's critical to all Americans' futures. To work, strategies need to be federal, state, and metro-region wide. Place matters. This book gets it, and lays out the basic arguments in brilliant fashion."--Neal Peirce, columnist, Washington Post Writers Group and coauthor of Citistates
"An important book. Dreier, Mollenkopf, and Swanstrom have creatively diagnosed one of the most important domestic problems of the twenty-first century. This thoughtful volume is bound to become a standard reference for students, scholars, and the lay public who seek a broader understanding of the rising economic segregation in our nation's metropolises and how to confront it."--William Julius Wilson, author of When Work Disappears: The World of the New Urban Poor
"This book is a tour de force. It not only shows how inequality and place are inter-twined in the United States, it also provides a sophisticated analysis for how to create a new metropolitan politics. Packed with data and powerfully written, Place Matters is essential reading for anyone interested in the fate of cities and, more broadly, the future of American politics."--Margaret M. Weir, author of Politics and Jobs
"A brilliant and important piece of work. Deeply informed, penetrating in its analysis of the problems of economic segregation and spatial inequalities, and bold yet practical in its search for solutions and proposals for reform. Place Matters is one of the best books of applied social science I have ever read and is certain to have a major impact on thinking and discourse about urban problems over the next generation."--Richard DeLeon, author of Left Coast City: Progressive Politics in San Francisco, 1975-1991
"With the publication of Place Matters, there may be more reason to be optimistic about the future of cities. We now have a fairly good idea of how we got where we are today. And this book provides many of the substantive policy recommendations and political strategies that can get us where most of us want to go. . . . It is essential for any meaningful policy discussion."--City & Community
"Place Matters starts with a careful analysis of the government policies that abandoned certain neighborhoods to poverty and decay. Next, and more importantly, the book articulates a vision of regional development with familiar recipes for success-expanded tax credits, better child care, improved health care-but that persuasively ties those into the very streets people live in. Best of all, it's readable."--City Limits
"Deserves a broad readership. Dreier, Mollenkopf, and Swanstrom have combined to write one of the strongest volumes on metropolitan affairs in recent years, weaving together a wealth of contemporary information, history, and refined analysis. They make a compelling case for aggressive federal and regional action to alleviate poverty and to reduce place-based inequity within and between metro areas. . . . While this clearly written book will instruct readers with limited exposure to the connections between place and class, experienced metropolitan hands should also find the marshaling of evidence useful and the arguments worthy of attention. . . . A superior work ."--Urban Ecology
"No better summary exists of 'progressive' thinking on urban policy. Highly recommended."--Choice
"If you're looking for a handbook for the next Democratic administration in Washington, read this book."--East Bay Express
"The authors of Place Matters argue, convincingly and compellingly, that where one lives is a major factor in determining one's well-being and life chances. . . . The logic of their argument is that place should join (not displace) race and class as major organizing frameworks for analyzing the distribution of life chances and the impact of public policy. . . . The strengths of this book are many. . . . [It is] accessible not just to academically trained social scientists, but also to public officials, policy makers, and a broad range of citizens concerned with urban problems."--Housing Studies
"Place matters, and this volume offers a clear research agenda for uncovering the answers to why income segregation and its attendant problems plague center cities and their metropolitan areas. The authors have uncovered a vast array of important empirical questions that should inform the urban research community and urban planners."--Journal of Politics
"Place Matters is notable for its accessibility and clarity. It is also a compelling narrative, demonstrating collective and wide-ranging knowledge of the American city."--Economic Geography
"The authors of Place Matters make a refreshing point of arguing against economic segregation using an economic argument, recognizing moral and spiritual rationales for eliminating inequality but engaging the debate squarely in their detractors' home territory. They make the case that economic segregation is bad for society because poverty makes society less economically efficient."--Social Policy
"Very informative for anyone concerned about the future of America's cities."--U.S. Mayor
"[A] useful brick in the wall of reform."--American Prospect

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) A federal jury has convicted a former Kansas doctor of illegally having a handgun and drugs.
A Sedgwick County jury on Thursday found 57-year-old Lawrence M. Simons of Wichita guilty of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon and unlawful possession of controlled substances.
Simons, a convicted felon, was on probation when he was accused earlier this year of giving a bondsman a gun as partial payment for bailing him out of jail in an unrelated domestic threat case.
Prosecutors also contend that because he had earlier surrendered his license to write prescriptions, he could not lawfully possess drugs that were later found in storage lockers. Simons was first convicted in 2010 for unlawfully distributing controlled substances.
He'll be sentenced Feb. 10.
