On 5 April Scorpion departed Pearl Harbor for her first war patrol, a hunting and mining mission off the east coast of Honsh. On 19 April, she reached the mining area near Nakaminato. During the afternoon she reconnoitered the coast and in the evening she laid her naval mines, then retired to deep water. On 20 April she sank her first enemy ship, a 1934-ton converted gunboat. On 21 April, prior to 01:00, she fired on and destroyed her first sampan in surface action, then moved up the coast to observe the fishing grounds, shipping lanes, and coastline of the Shioya Saki area. On the night of 22 April she destroyed three more sampans with gunfire and continued north, toward Kinkasan To.
With the absence of shipping along the coastal lanes she moved seaward and on 27 April sighted a convoy of four freighters escorted by a destroyer. At 04:59, she launched four torpedoes at the first and largest merchantman; two at the second; then dived and rigged for depth charging. At 05:05, the destroyer dropped her first depth charges. A half-hour later, the Japanese warship broke off her search for Scorpion to aid the stricken passenger-cargo ship. While Scorpion escaped with slight damage, the 6380-ton merchant vessel sank.
On 28 April, Scorpion received orders home. En route on 29 April, she sighted and engaged a 100-ton patrol vessel, which she left burning to the waterline. On the morning of 30 April, she stalked, fired on, and finally torpedoed and sank a 600-ton patrol ship. During the hour and three-quarters fight, however, Scorpion received her first casualty. Lieutenant Commander R.M. Raymond, on board as prospective commanding officer, was hit and killed by gunfire.
Soon after the patrol vessel went down, an enemy plane appeared. Scorpion submerged; survived the plane's depth charges and continued toward Midway Island and Pearl Harbor, arriving on 8 May.
Departing Pearl Harbor on 29 December 1943, Scorpion stopped at Midway Island to top off with fuel, and left that place on 3 January 1944, to conduct her fourth war patrol. Her assigned area was in the northern East China Sea and Yellow Sea.
On the morning of 5 January, Scorpion reported that one of her crew had sustained a fracture of the upper arm and requested a rendezvous with Herring(SS-233) which was returning from patrol and was near her. The rendezvous was accomplished on that afternoon but heavy seas prevented the transfer. "Scorpion reports case under control." Scorpion was never seen or heard from again after her departure from that rendezvous. On 16 February 1944, Steelhead(SS-280) and Scorpion were warned that they were close together, and that an enemy submarine was in the vicinity.
No Japanese information indicates that the loss of the Scorpion was the result of enemy anti-submarine tactics. There were, however, several naval mine lines across the entrance to the Yellow Sea. The presence of these mine lines and the "restricted area" bounding them was discovered from captured Japanese Notices to Mariners at a much later date. In the meantime several submarines had made patrols in this area, crossing and recrossing the mine lines without incident, and coming safely home. It is probable that these mine lines were very thin, offering only about a 10 percent threat to submarines at maximum, and steadily decreasing in effectiveness with the passage of time. Scorpion was lost soon after these mines were laid, at a time when they were the greatest threat. She could have been an operational casualty, but her area consisted of water shallow enough so that it might be expected that some men would have survived. Since there are no known survivors, the most reasonable assumption is that she hit a mine.

The box is a hard sell, but there's hard dick to be found here; stock in new and foreign releases.
It's France, 1701, and beneath all the colorful costumes, suggestive eating (double banana biting, anyone?) and horse riding going on here, there's some decent sex to be had. Still, there's something decidedly non-sexual about all the frilly frocks and white wigs being worn (didn't they take those off for sex back then?!), which too often detract from the action. But eagle-eyed viewers will find enough hard dick to please them, which partially makes up for the lackluster sucking. The dungeon scene (which wants to be gritty but isn't) has some nice moments, and scenes three and four will keep viewers interested.

Feel a little sorry for the team, they seemed to try too hard and just
couldn't pull it together for a complete game. Seemed to mostly play better
as the year went on, but not as much improvement as opposing teams.

I hope the Cougs can rebound and play well in the NIT. I also hope everyone now knows that this years team just wasn't that good. Haws takes way too many shots and that hurts Carlinos game. Davies is the only legitament big man on this team. Coach Rose did a great job with this bunch of guys. I don't think another coach could have won 10 games with this group. Better luck next year!

Truth is we just weren't very good this year... We had only 2 solid
consistent players all year long and every once in awhile Carlino would show
Sure, we were good enough to beat less talented teams like Utah (in fact, I think that we ran the state) but not good enough to compete consistently at a high level...
That leads me to the question of when we will be able to return to that level... The incompetence of the Administration and our AD in getting us into a bigger and better Conference for all sports is hurting our recruiting efforts and it is starting to show up on the Fields as well as the Courts...
We are challenged from both a scheduling standpoint and from a player recognition standpoint... A large percentage of recruits believe they have the skill base to eventually play at the next level and they want to be "showcased"... Being independent in Football and playing Idaho, Idaho State and New Mexico State in November does not a "showcase provide"... I also think that that is true with the WCC (albeit that Gonzaga is an outlier)... 8 schools with populations of about 5,000???

A tough loss for a team that has frankly had a hard time all season long
performing well when the game was on the line. This bunch has just not had
anyone that could step up in the crunch. Even the free throw shooting has been
down this year.
Speaking objectively, take away Jimmer, and you would probably say the same of the team for several years now. As much as I like Dave Rose, I don't see that he gets the best performance out of his players, who come from no different background than say, the kids who play for Coach Lewis at Lone Peak, but who seem to get it done in tournament play.
Am I the only one here who feels unfulfilled come March Madness by BYU's 20 some odd wins in regular season?

I watched this team play in Brooklyn. There were some good signs, if they could find leadership, consistency, and players who would step up. I thought they would gel and pull it together. They never did. This has to be one of the most head-scratching, frustrating teams I have ever seen.

Everyone except Davies played awful in the first half. I know every play has an
impact on the game, but after we had crawled back into it; the two plays that
seemed to be the dagger were:
1. Haws turnover in the final minutes. After Davies poked the ball away for a steal, Haws threw the lame duck pass that was picked off. Ouch. Mistakes happen. I know he wishes he had that one back.
2. Austin shooting a three at the end of the game. Why? Why? Why? He has one of the lowest percentages from behind the arc. There is still plenty of time on the shot clock. Davies has the hot hand. When that shot went up, I knew the game was over.
If those two possessions had gone differently, the win probably goes to the Cougs.
I'm not even expecting that great of a seed heading to the NIT now.
Not sure what to expect next year? Losing Davies will be a big loss. K. Colinsworth is a nice addition. Unless our Sophomores (Haws, Carlino, Austin, Sharp) improve dramatically, I'm expecting a similar season next year with 20 - 22 wins.

I'll say it again, the cougars do not block out on rebounds. They watch and go for the ball instead of blocking out and making sure the other team can't get the ball. This is an 8th grade level issue. Plus last night they looked slow on both offense and defense. I hate to say it but we should expect them to lose in the first round of whatever tournament they get into.

"We didn't play as well as we're capable of, but that was due to
San Diego's defensive pressure."
"But all the credit in the world to San Diego, because their game plan and they way they executed made it difficult for us to get over that edge."
Props to Coach Rose and Craig Cusick. That's sportsmanship. I've never heard bronco say anything like that.
I was impressed by Brandon Davies's play this year. He's got a future in pro ball.

This is very disappointing. I'm not sure what all of the reasons are for this last half of the season fade but it is obvious this team just never had the chemistry it needed to be an NCAA team. I don't wish to pile on as it is still a 20+ game winner and will be in a post season tournament but it is a team that seems to have underachieved, the 1st of Coach Rose's teams that I would lable with that moniker.

So what about the physical presence and "edge" we read about yesterday? This game was beyond embarrasing, yet a typical game for the Cougs this year. They deserved the loss, pure and simple. Interesting note section-- I could care less about Carlino's "bright blue" shoes. Whoe cares? Also, Austin presence had little if any impact. The 3 rebound "advantage" was far from a game changer. Although Austin's 3-point attempt with under 2 minutes left certainly was. Very poor shot selection, and he wasn't alone in that. Let's put 15-20 pounds on Austin and get him to be a little more of a presence inside. I don't need a 6'-10" kid attempting 3's.

When Carlino figures out that it's not about the shoes and the leggings they will be a much better team. And then the DNews encourages this foolishness by mentioning the shoes in the article. Stop with the shaved head, the leggings, and the blue shoes. Just play ball. Get serious.

Leahy frustrated over immigrationJune 19,2013
MONTPELIER — Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., is expressing frustration at the slow pace of debate on the comprehensive immigration reform bill now before the U.S. Senate.
Leahy, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, said more than 130 amendments have been filed to the bill. But he said that since debate began last week, the Senate has finished work on just one, with another handful set for consideration Tuesday.
Leahy blamed 15 opponents of the bill for trying to slow up the Senate process and prevent the measure from coming to a vote.
He issued a statement saying he does not believe those 15 senators should be able to prevent the 84 who want a vote on the bill to proceed.MORE IN This Just InBURLINGTON As part of a federal effort to dismantle drug trafficking organizations in Vermont,...

Hamilton is off to an amazing start in his first two months with
Texas, which acquired him in an offseason trade with Cincinnati.
Hamilton's drive into the left-field seats against Brian Bass (1-1)

Clippers Head Into Offseason of Uncertainty
Posted on 15 May 2013 by Taylor Smith.
The 2012-13 season was, in many ways, the best in the history of the Los Angeles Clippers. However, it also feels like a massive missed opportunity, and it may be remembered as just that. They finished the regular season with a record of 56-26; by far the best in franchise history. The next-best record they've posted was a 49-33 mark during the '74-'75 season, when they were known as the Buffal...

NFL Mock Draft 2013
Posted on 25 Apr 2013 by Dustin Kelver.
The NFL Draft is once again upon us and it's one of my favorite times of the year. Millions of couch GM's sit around just hoping that their team picks the guy that they want and that they come away with those late round steals. This year's draft is going to be hard to predict because I don' think there are a whole lot of superstars (especially at the skill positions) but here is my attempt at...

Falcons look to breeze through week 16 against Lions
Posted on 22 Dec 2012 by Ashley Gulick.
It is week 16 and for the Atlanta Falcons the stage is pretty much set for their playoff run, but first they look to play naughty rather than nice, to steal one more win from the Detroit Lions tonight. Having one of the best records in the NFL (12-2), the Falcons can seal in home field advantage with a win. After Atlanta left the Giants last week with a zero in the points column, much of the me...

Missed opportunities plague Falcons in 30-20 loss to Panthers
Posted on 9 Dec 2012 by Ashley Gulick.
Sunday was ultimately a game that the Atlanta faithful would like to forget. Falling 30-20 to their heated rival, the Carolina Panthers, the Falcons looked poised to make a late game comeback, but too many failed attempts in the first half definitely came back to haunt them later. Although the Panthers had just three wins to their name before Sunday's win, they were able to dominate the first t...

Posted on 27 Nov 2012 by Taylor Smith.
When a team shoots a blistering 48 percent from three-point range (making 18 of them, at that) in a basketball game, it would seem safe to assume that that team comes out with a win. Unfortunately for the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night, the New Orleans Hornets were even better from beyond-the-arc, shooting an amazing 60 percent (15-27), on their way to a 105-98 victory.

WACO (November 11, 2013) Police were checking hospital emergency rooms late Monday afternoon as they searched for a man who fled along with two children after the car he was driving slammed into a house in a Waco neighborhood.
Police and firefighters responded just before 3:30 p.m. to 5846 Caldwell Street where they found the abandoned car partially inside the heavily damaged house.
The home is for sale and no one was in it at the time.
Authorities said they didn't find any skid marks or any evidence the driver lost control of the car.

Many Emotions Can Damage the Heart
It's Tougher on Women continued...
Goldberg, who wrote Women Are Not Small Men: Life-saving Strategies for Preventing and Healing Heart Disease in Women, also cites a recent study in The New England Journal of Medicine conducted by researchers at Johns Hopkins. The researchers found that sudden emotional stress could result in severe weakness in the heart muscle, making it seem as though the person was having a heart attack. This "broken heart syndrome," says Goldberg, was more common in women.
"I think it's a common thing that women put themselves last on the list and feel very time-pressed to go to exercise or take down time for themselves," says Goldberg, who feels it's especially important to help women identify their support network.
Balancing the Emotions
"Any imbalance in an emotional state - when one emotion dominates or overrides the others - can predispose one to heart disease," says Frank Lipman, MD, an integrative physician, board-certified internist, and licensed acupuncturist. "Learning to deal with emotions is extremely important."
But studying these emotional states is difficult, concedes Lipman, the author of Total Renewal: 7 Key Steps to Resilience, Vitality and Long-Term Health. "It's not something you can measure easily." Nonetheless, emotions can get stuck in the body. When you release these emotional holding patterns physically, he says, you're releasing emotional states, as well.
Lipman has facilitated these releases in patients through acupuncture. He also refers some patients to body workers and healers, who are able to shift energy in the body.
How Doctors Can Help Eradicate Negative Emotions
Asking about the patient's emotional state should clearly be part of the medical history, even though doctor-patient time is often abbreviated, says Goldberg. Helping people make changes in their lives to improve health means recognizing the potential barriers that go beyond the person being able to afford their medicine and going to the gym.
Understanding patients' fears and anxieties is very important, she says. Sometimes, careful observation does the trick, such as noting whether anxiety is provoking patients to sit very forward in a chair or whether they look as though they're not taking care of themselves or putting on weight.

Force Structure:
Improved Cost Information and Analysis Needed to Guide Overseas Military Posture Decisions
GAO-12-711: Published: Jun 6, 2012. Publicly Released: Jun 6, 2012.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(404) 679-1816
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
Although the Department of Defense (DOD) has conducted some analysis to support two recent global posture decisions, the full cost implications of these decisions are unknown.
- Forward deployment and permanent stationing of U.S. Navy ships in Rota. The Navy considered three options: (1) deploying ships to the region from U.S. bases, (2) forward stationing ships and crews overseas, and (3) deploying ships to the region and rotating crews from U.S. bases. The Navy concluded that forward stationing ships was the most efficient option, but GAO found that it did not fully consider the option to rotate crews from U.S. bases and, in a classified analysis, it used different assumptions for forward stationing versus deploying from the United States. These assumptions could affect the results of the analysis and have long-term cost implications. GAOs Cost Estimating and Assessment Guide states that a business case or cost-benefit analysis finds the best value solution by presenting facts and supporting details among competing alternatives, including the life cycle costs and benefits, and sensitivity to changes in assumptions. Without an analysis that controls for differing assumptions or considers factors such as complete life cycle costs, the long-term costs associated with its decision to forward station ships will remain unknown.
- Reduction of U.S. Army force structure in Europe. The planned reductions of U.S. Army forces in Europe will likely save money; however, decisions that could affect the extent of the savings are pending. For example, a 2010 Army analysis found $2 billion in savings over 10 years by returning forces from Germany, but assumed that new facilities estimated at $800 million would need to be built in the United States to house them. However, present planned reductions in overall Army end strength could eliminate the need for new construction. Further, DOD announced that it will rotate forces from the United States to Europe, but the nature of the rotationswhich could include significant costs depending on their size and frequencyhas not yet been defined. According to DOD officials, until such determinations are made, the savings to DOD will remain uncertain.
DOD has taken steps to align posture initiatives with strategy and cost, but continues to lack comprehensive and consistent cost estimates of initiatives. DODs evolving posture process links initiatives with defense goals. Stakeholders from key DOD entities prioritize the initiatives in a voting process based on strategic criteria; cost is discussed, but not voted on. Furthermore, combatant commands did not completely and consistently report cost data in their theater posture plans because of the lack of readily available cost information. GAO found two primary reasons for this: unclear roles and responsibilities of key DOD organizations that have access to the cost data needed to compile and report comprehensive cost estimates and lack of a standardized format to compile and report cost data from component commands. Until these cost data are comprehensively compiled and reported, DOD and congressional decision makers will be unable to assess the true cost of posture initiatives.
Why GAO Did This Study
In January 2012, DOD issued new strategic guidance on defense budget priorities, indicating that it must rebalance its overseas force postureincluding the forward stationing of Navy ships in Spain for ballistic missile defense and the reduction of U.S. Army forces in Europein the face of deficit reduction. Similarly, DOD reported in its 2011 Global Defense Posture Report to Congress that savings associated with permanently stationing forces in the United States rather than overseas are often offset by such factors as increased rotational costs. Based on direction from the Senate Armed Services Committee, GAO evaluated the extent to which DOD has (1) conducted analysis to support recent overseas posture decisions and (2) developed a process for making posture decisions that align with strategy and consider costs. GAO assessed two recent posture initiatives, DOD plans and guidance related to posture, and theater posture plans from each combatant command.
What GAO Recommends
GAO recommends that DOD conduct a comprehensive cost analysis associated with the Navys decision to station ships in Rota, assess options and costs related to rotating forces in Europe, and clarify roles and responsibilities of key entities to collect cost data on initiatives. DOD generally agreed with GAOs recommendations and identified corrective actions, but additional steps are needed to fully address GAOs recommendation that the Navy further assess options and costs for ballistic missile defense.

Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: To identify future funding requirements and improve the posture planning process, the Secretary of Defense should direct the Secretary of the Navy to conduct a comprehensive analysis for each course of action the Navy has considered to address mission requirements for ballistic missile defense in the Mediterranean that compares all options the Navy considered and either applies consistent operational assumptions or controls for different operational assumptions and includes the long-term life cycle costs and annual operating costs associated with forward stationing.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Open
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: To identify future funding requirements and improve the posture planning process, the Secretary of Defense should direct the Secretary of the Army to identify and assess options to rotate forces in Europe and their associated costs, including the impacts on future basing in Europe.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Open
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: To identify future funding requirements and improve the posture planning process, the Secretary of Defense should clarify the roles and responsibilities of key OSD organizations, the military departments, and the service component commands, and establish a standardized reporting format to include in applicable guidance for key DOD organizations to use to ensure that cost information is consistently summarized and reported to inform the posture planning process.

Re: BK7 - My plan, a few questions, & suggestion
s are desired. :)
Contact Prestige Financial. Their website is www.gopfs.com They provide loans to people who recently filed bankruptcy like yourself. It even says who their target audience is on their website. The auto loans require ZERO down...that is on their website as well. And they reduce your rate every 6 months when you have paid on time. There is no grace period so put it on autopay. They were the only lender that would finance me after Ch 13 BK. I got a really reliable late model family sedan. Price was $16,000 and I paid $400 a month. I traded it in last Nov for a lease on a brand new Acura. So they helped me rebuild my credit a lot. I think they require your BK to be discharged...most any lender requires that so you may have to wait a little longer but I doubt they will come and get your car in that timeframe. Things move very slowly after BK. good luck to you and I know it will turn out ok for you.

Republican senate 29 nominee, George flowers, has a new plan to help local school systems.
He says if the education budget is prorated he will cut his own legislative salary by the same percentage.
This past year it would have equaled about 65-hundred dollars.
Flowers says, if elected, the money in question would be transferred into a non-profit fund for teachers' classroom needs.
Let me tell you, all of the school systems are struggling right now and I think it's the legislators job to take the lead in trying to give back and hopefully it will inspire others in the community too," said flowers.
Flowers' plan is intended for Dale, Geneva and Houston counties.

The kiwi dollar might have lost its allure on international currency markets but its feathered namesake remains highly sought after by foreign visitors to Stewart Island, or Rakiura.
The country's third biggest island, a 20-minute flight from Invercargill or hour-long ferry passage from Bluff, is a popular destination for tourists hopeful of spotting a southern tokoeka, a variation of the Fiordland brown kiwi, in the wild.
Many do. Kiwi sightings are a common conversation-starter in the tramping huts dotted around the Rakiura coast.
So is mud. The brown sticky stuff is the scourge of trampers on the 125km North West Circuit and the shorter Southern Circuit.
In winter, you expect to have to wade your way through knee-deep mud. But in summer the tracks are supposed to be in better condition.
Not so when I arrived in the second half of January. Days of rain and heavy foot traffic had churned the tracks into magnificent mud baths.
That slowed down, but didn't stop, the eager kiwi-spotters. A young tramper from the north of England, whose duct tape-bound boots signalled the track conditions, told of having been kept going by eight kiwi encounters during a solo 10-day North West Circuit slog.
A pair of American women making their way to the top of 775m Rocky Mountain, alerted by rustling in the fern on the edge of the track, got within a metre of a large specimen.
And an Israeli man in his 20s recounted the same day at Freshwater Landing how one of the birds practically blundered into his feet during the four-hour walk from Mason Bay.
With so many kiwi being seen, I was optimistic my time would also come. Since they are usually nocturnal, I thought I would have the best chance if I took to the bush during the semi-dark of early morning and twilight (about 10pm in the deep south in summer). But no such luck.
I was well able to join in the discussions about mud. But not kiwis. Maybe they prefer foreigners?
I had made an early morning kiwi spotting run on the same track as the American women and saw not a sausage. But they left half an hour later and found one still out and about at 9am.
A tramper from Wellington happened upon one within a dozen metres of Mason Bay hut in the late afternoon. She had stepped on to Mason Bay beach an hour before off a plane from Invercargill and hadn't even got her boots dirty. It doesn't seem fair.
Most of the sightings being talked about also suggest Stewart Island's tokoeka have taken a leaf out of the lifestyle manual of dozy human teens: in other words their body clocks have been reversed.
The Department of Conservation's Stewart Island biodiversity manager, Brent Beaven, says there are a couple of reasons why southern tokoeka are often seen in daylight, both to do with the island's latitude.
For one thing, in such southern climes it's so chilly that eggs need incubating right through the night. That means male and female adults take turns at foraging for food, while the other stays on the egg.
But summer nights are too short for both to have eaten their fill by daylight. Since the male feeds first, females can still be seen poking around as late as 10am.
Beaven says the island's kiwi population is thought to be 20,000-30,000, about the same as the South Island. With signs that it could be in decline, a closer count is being made.
Feral cats, of which there are thought to be thousands on the island, are a major predator. Kiwi chicks form part of their diet, with the occasional adult bird succumbing to a large cat.
DoC uses poison to keep the cats - and rats, which compete with kiwis for food - under control.
Flying into Mason Bay, at the intersection of the North West and Southern circuits, is a lazy way of getting a taste of Rakiura's ruggedness.
That's at the risk of feeling a bit of a fraud, however, as trampers stagger into the hut after the seven-hour mud-fests from Big Hellfire hut in the north or Doughboy Bay in the south.
Still, the trampers have the satisfaction of having risen to the challenge, which they do with varying degrees of preparedness, from the fit party of young locals with their gourmet tucker and bullet-proof equipment, to the trio of Swedes in light footwear with packs full of baked beans.
I take the water taxi down Freshwater River and across Paterson Inlet to Golden Bay, from where it's a 10-minute walk - without mud - to Oban, the island's only town.
At the pub and Kai Kart (famous for its fish and chips) were many of the people I ran into in the bush rewarding themselves for the rigours of days - sometimes as long as a fortnight - of hard yakka.
On the edge of town I met another overseas visitor, Tom Hennessy, who wasn't on the island to observe kiwi. A Canadian, he spends several months a year in New Zealand, and has built a home in Oban, from where he markets the Hennessy Hammock. Unlike usual hammocks, the design, for which he is seeking a number of patents, ensures you lie flat, not bent.
Hennessy offers me a private screening of the documentary 9/11 Mysteries, which casts doubt on the official version of events that day in US history.
I decline through lack of time, no doubt reinforcing his view, expressed earlier, that New Zealand's human inhabitants have a head-in-the-sand attitude to uncomfortable truths.
Could this be how we come to be named after a flightless bird that is sensitive to light, hard of hearing and spends its life with head down, tail up?

A virtual machine is an emulation layer between a program and the OS that presents to the application a specialized environment to run in, than the raw environment that the OS provides.
This helps in many ways. For example, the applications become more portable. Another advantage is that a VM can implement things not available in the native OS. One more very important benefit is that the memory management is automatic and the application developers don't need to concern themselves with it -- which makes programs less susceptible to a host of known problems when the memory is managed manually in C/C++ programs. VMs are commonly implemented in C or C++.

SEOUL, Nov. 6 (Yonhap) -- The Stanford University School of Medicine plans to send a team of doctors and healthcare providers to North Korea this month to help the country diagnose and treat tuberculosis (TB), a media report said Wednesday.
The team will arrive in the North next Tuesday and plans to stay for two weeks to pass on know-how on how to combat TB to local doctors and nurses, Radio Free Asia said.
North Korea reportedly has a large number of people suffering from TB, with the disease being closely associated with poverty. A jump in cases following floods and poor harvests in the past had alarmed the international community and compelled them to ship medicine and other humanitarian supplies to the impoverished country.
The latest trip has been arranged by Christian Friends of Korea (CFK), a U.S. non-profit group, it said.
The Washington-based broadcaster said CFK representatives will also accompany the medical team to Pyongyang so they can check up on the progress of a national TB hospital.
Besides the Stanford group, AmeriCares, another U.S. charity organization, recently said it sent medical supplies such as antibiotics and drugs to treat respiratory problems to the communist country.
The shipment is expected to arrive by boat later in the month and be distributed to six hospitals and several clinics in Pyongyang and North Hwanghae Province, the group said.

Some years ago I read that Mother Teresa had told New York's John Cardinal O'Connor that the best way for him to help her would be to pick up a broom and sweep. I was delighted. Here was a woman who helped the poor and called on influential leaders to do the same.
When I read recently that Mother Teresa had gone years without feeling the presence of God, it came as a shock. What would St. John of the Cross have thought of so long a dark night of the soul? I think he would have understood. I understand-not because I'm a saint, but because I once had my own dark night.
It began when I was in the novitiate of the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. As I look back on the time I spent there, some nine months in all, the convent jargon floods my mind: we were to seek "custody of the eyes," to strive for "perfect recollection," to avoid "particular friendships." I also have many happy memories of the convent: the wise and compassionate guidance I received from the mistress of novices; singing the praises of God and the Virgin Mary; teaching French to other postulants and novices; the blessed silence.
After six months as a postulant, I was ready to take the habit. A day before the ceremony, each member of our little group of postulants was given a biblical quotation to mull over. Mine: "Harken, O daughter, and consider and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people and thy father's house; so...

Tekken 7 is shaping up nicely; I actually like the less-bloated character roster, I think they were right to tone it down a bit!

A delicious and usually SPICY Ethiopian chicken stew. The base amounts of chili flakes and cayenne are for a medium amount of heat; definitely increase the amounts if you can handle it!
A delicious, hearty bean soup. You could easily replace the chicken stock with vegetable stock for a vegetarian meal.
Citrusy and delicious!

This is super easy and if you take the time to really work the oil over the kale you can cut calories by only using 1 tsp oil vs. 1 Tbs like a lot of other recipes call for.

What can I say about Sawyer. He is 5, wickedly funny, super smart, and simply adorable.
It has been baby season here at emily g, so it was a fun change to work with a slightly bigger, little person for a bit. Sawyer was SO good for me. He was the perfect mixture of crazy & thoughtful. He was also full to the brim with character as you can see with the many, many faces you will see below. I really had a wonderful time hanging out with him and his family. I always say my sessions are more of a play-date than a formal photo session, and this one really was all play.
Check out a few of my favorites so far:
Candice thanks again for bringing Sawyer into the studio to see me. He was an absolute doll! I had a great time meeting all of you. I hope you like your sneak peek. I will have the whole set done very soon. FOr now I would love to offer you a big of a blog contest. For all my new clients I like to do a little challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post, I will throw in a set of darling little brag books. So have fun!
