Training Staff in Community Programs
As a result of increased awareness about autism and strong family advocacy many more people with autism are attending community-based summer programs. An important ingredient to a successful experience is the staff at the community program, their understanding of autism spectrum disorders, and the unique strengths and challenges of your family member with autism. How have you shared this information with agencies or community program staff? Do you use a formal training program? A written document? One-on-one time with the staff? Share your experience and make it easier for others going into new community settings this summer.
17 Wishes from an Adult with Autism
This guest post is by Autism Speaks staffer Kerry Magro. Kerry, an adult who has autism, is a recent graduate of Seton Hall University. He started the club Student Disability Awareness on campus to help spread awareness and raise funds for those affected by autism. Autism Speaks U is a program designed for college students who host awareness, advocacy and fundraising events, while supporting their local autism communities.
If I had to make a list, this is what I would wish for the Autism Community…
1. I wish that acceptance was easier to come by.
2. I wish that loving one another was always on our mind.
3. I wish that an "early diagnosis" remains a high priority.
4. I wish that people would stop calling autism a disease.
5. I wish that communication becomes easier for everyone with autism. We are trying.
6. I wish that we find more treatments to enhance the lives of people with autism.
7. I wish that insurance for autism gets passed in all 50 states.
8. I wish that the government would understand the need for services for the autistic in schools.
9. I wish that autistic individuals can one day live their lives independently.
10. I wish that I was capable of helping more.
11. I wish that people would stop using the words "socially awkward" and "retard" in a negative way.
12. I wish we raise awareness for all with disabilities. Those of us living with a disability are doing our very best.
13. I wish for those who are or love someone who is on the spectrum that you know that we are moving forward every single day.
14. I wish that all of our voices can be heard.
15. I wish everyone will follow the words of one of my favorite performers of all time, Michael Jackson who sang in his song called, "Man in the Mirror", If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change.
16. I wish you all knew me when I was 4, when I was diagnosed with autism. For a long time I was lost. Scared of myself and what I was capable of. I never thought I would be where I am today… but I did it. I graduated from Seton Hall University this past May and will be going to Graduate School for Strategic Communications in the fall to boot. So for my final wish:
17. I wish for you all to always live life with hope. I wish that your days are filled with hope for a better tomorrow, and for today no matter how dark life gets sometimes that you realize you're never alone. I wish this for you…
* I encourage everyone in the Autism Community to remember that we must come together as a true community to put our best foot forward. I know we all have a lot of wishes out there so let's avoid distractions and focus on progress so we can all, "Make a Difference". You can also find this article in the SFGate here.

CORPUS CHRISTI – The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi women's soccer team returns to action this weekend, with a Friday afternoon contest at home against Incarnate Word and a road match on Sunday at Lamar. Friday's contest will see the Islanders raise breast cancer awareness with their "Kick Cancer" campaign.
As part of Friday's promotion, fans are encouraged to wear pink to the contest. For every ticket sold on game day, $1 will be donated to FIRST FRIDAY, which brings together all aspects of breast cancer awareness and detection, emphasizing education and community outreach. The contest starts at 3:30 p.m.
The Islanders are coming off the first conference win in program history, a 1-0 golden-goal victory over McNeese State. Alyssa Miller scored in the 95th minute to lift the home team to the victory, which was also the first home triumph in Islanders lore. It marked the first career shutout for keeper Audrey Baldwin, who made two saves. Baldwin earned Southland Conference Goalkeeper of the Week honors for her efforts.
Incarnate Word enters this weekend with an 8-4-0 overall record and a 2-3-0 mark in league play. The program, which is transitioning to Division I, played several non-Division I foes in non-conference play, but has registered impressive wins over conference frontrunners Oral Roberts and Nicholls in recent weeks. The Cardinals' losses in Southland play have come at the hands of Sam Houston State, Southeastern Louisiana and Central Arkansas. UIW is not eligible for the conference tournament this season.
Reigning Southland Offensive Player of the Week Katie Miller leads the offense with her eight goals and 19 points on the season, while Sydney Solomon and Abigail Koenigs have each chipped in five goals as well. The Cardinals defense looks to central defenders Sarah Parker and Elizabeth Washington to keep the opponents away from goal. UIW has allowed just 7.8 shot attempts per game. Heather Kowalik is the team's starting goalkeeper, but has battled an injury over the past few games. She has a 1.29 goals against average.
The Islanders will then head to Beaumont for a Sunday afternoon matchup at Lamar. The Cardinals have struggled in league play so far this year, sporting a 1-4-1 record in the Southland and a 4-8-1 mark overall. Lamar has defeated Nicholls in conference action so far this season, but LU has played some of the league's best. The Cardinals' losses have come at the hands of Oral Roberts, Stephen F. Austin, Southeastern Louisiana and Houston Baptist.

Use our template as a pattern for Linny's fur and hat. We used felt, but you can use construction paper, or if you have it on hand, fun fur. Her hat is made from a soda bottle cap. You can also use the twist-off cap from an orange juice carton.
Find the Wonder Pets! on Nick Jr.
Using the printable Linny egg template, cut out the two "fur" pieces. Don't put any glue on the 'ear' area or the 'whisker' area. Kids can secure the fur pieces to the egg.
From the brown felt, cut two small ovals for eyes. From the pink, cut a small pink triangle for the nose. For the inner ears, cut two white ear shapes. Have kids help glue on the felt pieces (as shown). When the glue is nearly dry, draw the "w-shaped" mouth.
Using the template, cut out one "hat" piece from orange felt. Glue to the top of the egg. Then, avoiding the hat's visor, smear glue on the orange circle shape. Press the twist-off cap onto the felt. Let dry.
From brown foam or construction paper, cut an 8- by 1-inch strip. Curl the strip into a circle, overlapping the ends, and staple or tape in place.

MORAGA -- Campolindo High's Brighie Leach had a rough experience in her first Division III girls state championship race.
"Freshman year, I ended up crawling across the finish line. My body kind of shut down about 21/2 miles in," said Leach, now a junior. "Every time I go back there, that memory kind of bugs me. I hope the good memories replace the bad."
Leach will have good memories from this season's Division III girls state championship, where she finished an impressive second on the 3.1-mile Woodward Park course in Fresno. Her time of 17 minutes, 51 seconds was tops for a North Coast Section female runner and led the Cougars to the Division III team title in that race.
Leach was undefeated until the state championships, claiming NCS Division III and Diablo Foothill Athletic League championship titles along the way. Her time of 17:26 on the 3-mile Hayward High course at the section championships was the fastest girls time of the meet.
For her accomplishments, Leach has been named the Bay Area News Group East Bay Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year.
"Our main goal was the team," Leach said. "We just wanted to win state, and that's what I had my eyes on, doing what I could individually to help my team. Individually, I tried to improve from last season."
"With Brighie, I really appreciate her patience," Campolindo coach Chuck Woolridge said. "She brings to her training the same kind of attributes she brings to school. She is very organized and methodical. She is very good at executing things in a series of steps."
In her state championship race, Leach found herself in an unusual circumstance.
In the final two miles, she was far behind leader Bethan Knights of Northwood-Irvine and well ahead of the rest of the 190-runner field, but Leach didn't drop back. Knights won in 17:08, and Clare Peabody of Aptos was third in 18:09.
"Brighie was clearly better than everyone else except that one girl," said Woolridge about that race. "I thought Brighie was very poised."

- California prisons: Gov. Jerry Brown offers plan for overcrowding crisis 'under protest'
California is out of legal options in its fight to overturn court orders that require the state's overcrowded prison system to find a way to rid itself of nearly 10,000 more inmates.
In a one-line order, the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected Gov. Jerry Brown's final legal maneuver to end federal court oversight of the nation's largest prison system, effectively forcing the state to follow through with a legislative plan to solve a decades-old prison crisis.
The justices refused to review a special three-judge panel's most recent orders requiring California to meet strict deadlines to reduce the inmate population. Now, the Brown administration must craft ways to shift inmates out of state prisons through a host of proposals, from sentencing reforms to shipping some of them out of state.
The Supreme Court earlier this year rejected California's request to stay those orders, which are the final stage in a long legal battle over prison overcrowding deemed so severe it has deprived inmates of adequate medical and mental health care.
The governor and state prison officials released a statement saying they were "disappointed the state's case won't be heard.". But they lauded the progress made in recent years in shedding nearly 30,000 inmates from state prisons, and vowed that the legislative plan they've submitted to the three federal judges "will continue to build on these landmark reforms."
Lawyers for the inmates said the Supreme Court's refusal to hear the case should force the state to act.
"(It) is a strong affirmation and message to the state: Your prisons are still dangerous and broken," said Michael Bien, an attorney challenging the prison conditions.
Last month, the three-judge panel ordered state officials and inmates' lawyers to meet on the latest legislative plan to cut about 10,000 inmates from the prisons. The governor's realignment plan has already shifted thousands of inmates to county jails, following aU.S. Supreme Court in 2011 ruling upholding the panel's orders to dramatically lower the prison population.
The panel has given the state at least until the end of January to report back to it. The governor and Legislature agreed recently to try using mental health and drug treatment programs to limit the number of inmates being sent to the state's prisons for new crimes, asking the judges to give the state three more years to meet the latest goals.
If the judges do not agree to that solution, state officials say they would spend more than $300 million to ship the inmates to private prisons and prisons in other states.
In their September order, the judges did not indicate whether they would accept that proposal but instructed state officials and inmates' advocates to focus on several inmate categories, including the elderly and juveniles, immigration violators, the seriously ill and those serving certain three-strikes sentences. The judges have previously threatened the Brown administration with contempt if they do not comply with the inmate reduction orders.
The governor sought relief from the Supreme Court this summer, arguing that California has addressed the overcrowding problem and is giving inmates adequate medical and mental health care. But the Supreme Court decided against revisiting the issue.

The Bay Area's Indian Summer warm-up on Monday nearly sizzled the record book.
But aside from Kentfield in Marin County, which hit a record 97 degrees for Oct. 1, it was hot -- but not record hot -- in cities across the region, according to the National Weather Service.
San Jose hit 94 degrees, three degrees under a record, and Santa Cruz's 100 degrees was a perfect reason to hit the beach, but fell short of the town's 102-degree record. Gilroy also hit 100 degrees, not a record for that date on the calendar.
A National Weather Service spokesman said it will remain warm on Tuesday, although a few degrees less inland and a bit cooler along the coast. As the week progresses and moves toward the weekend, temperatures are expected to moderate considerably and draw closer to normal for early October.

Materials and Works

The Jewish Museum art collection has acquired works by the Berlin sculptor Kurt Kroner (1885-1929) and documentary materials on his family.
Kroner was descended from a Silesian family of rabbis and doctors. In 1909, shortly before the birth of their son Thomas, Kurt Kroner and his wife Ella were baptized. However, they later acknowledged their belief in a "religion of humanity" which transcends confessions. Kroner's children, Thomas and Dodo, both managed to leave the country to flee Nazi persecution. Their mother, the painter Ella Behrend (1885-1942) stayed in Berlin and was deported to Auschwitz in 1942.
Kurt Kroner studied medicine before he began to sculpt, inspired by August Rodin and encouraged by Adolf Hildebrand. Throughout his career, his work was characterized by a close connection to philosophy. Kurt Kroner's political and artistic self-conception were shaped by the ideas of the reform movement and the cultural breakdown after the First World War. Among his close friends were Karl Liebknecht, Erich Mühsam, and Ernst Toller whose busts he sculpted, as he also did for Albert Einstein, Werner Sombart, Ferdinand Tönnies, and Gerhart Hauptmann.
The bronze miniatures "Schwebender" ("floating man") and "Der Einsame" ("lonely man") were donated to the Jewish Museum Berlin by the daughter and granddaughter of the artist (Dodo and Marion Kroner). They are expressive representations of ecstasy in the shaping of the antithetic conscious and the unconscious.
Other works by Kurt Kroner are on show in various museums in Germany and Israel. One of his few surviving life-size sculptures can be found on his grave in the Südwestkirchhof in Stahnsdorf, and the bust of Gerhart Hauptmann in the entrance hall of the Deutsches Theater in Berlin.

Here's a way to save hundreds and even thousands. The best way to save is to take your lunch and make more meals at home. The average U.S. family spends over $5,000 annually. The typical U.S. family spend $4,000 on meals prepared outside of the home. By just brown bagging it 2 times per week an average family will save over $1000 fairly easily.
Cooking at home is also a great first step toward going green. By making your own food, you'll pay attention to the ingredients you use, how they were grown and how nutritious and healthy they are. You will then consider if your ingredients are organic, whether they are locally sourced.

As Button completed his third lap around the Jerez circuit, the redesigned MP4-28 sputtered to a halt 10 minutes into testing with suspected fuel delivery problems.
The 2009 world champion helped team workers cover the car before a truck arrived to transport it back to the pits. By early afternoon he'd yet to complete a competitive lap.
Nico Rosberg, Hamilton's teammate at his new outfit Mercedes, suffered a more spectacular car failure as a flash of flames followed by smoke erupted from the rear of his Silver Arrow, having just set a lap time of 1 minute, 20.

Frequently asked questions
Swiss Ephemeris > For Programmers
- Where
can I find more information on the Swiss Ephemeris?
You can find a full documentation under www.astro.com/swisseph/. The Swiss Ephemeris is designed for developers of astrological software. It consists of files that are not really useful until they are read by software which you have to develop first. For commercial use of Swiss Ephemeris you must purchase a license.
- Can
I compute the planetary nodes with Swiss Ephemeris?
A sufficiently talented programmer can use our Swiss Ephemeris package to compute the planetary nodes. There are functions provided for the osculating nodes of any celestial body.
Please, see chapter 5 of the Programmer's documentation for the Swiss Ephemeris. For celestial bodies with mean theories (Mercury to Neptune) mean nodes are also available, for the others (Pluto and all 23'000 asteroids) only osculating nodes are available.
If you are not a programmer, please use the Swiss Ephemeris test page at
See Swiss Ephemeris full documentation, section 2.2.4 for more explanation. The matter is not trivial, though very few astrologers have an idea about the technical problems involved.
- Is
it possible to calculate an asteroid ephemeris?
You can easily create such an ephemeris yourself on our website, and then copy-paste it to a local documnt on your computer.
First, go to the Extended Chart Selection and use the link provided at the very bottom of the page to find the number of this asteroid. It is 1981 for Midas, for example. To include it in any chart, just enter this number in the field on the extended chart selection page.
For a simple ephemeris, you need to use the Swiss Ephemeris test page.
Fill out the form like this (or study the explanation page to find out for yourself):
start date: whatever you like
steps -n: 365 (for a 5-year ephemeris in 5-day steps)
stepsize -s: 5
planet selection -p: s
output format -f: PTLBD
(P = planet name, T = date, L = longitude, B = latitude, D = declination)
other options: -xs1981
(-xs followed by the number of the Asteroid you wish)
If you prefer signs and degrees instead of 360-degree notation for longitude, replace L with Z.
Now click on the 'submit' button.
There are also instructions how to do it at the bottom of the Haumea ephemeris http://www.astro.com/swisseph/haumea.htm
The objects can be found at http://www.astro.com/swisseph/astlist.htm

URBMAG Premiers Mux Mool remix of "The Hunter"
"I've been an avid listener of the electronic musician Mux Mool--and his affiliate label, Ghostly International--for quite awhile, so when the time came to look for "Fallen House, Sunken City" remixes he was on my shortlist.
I was excited to find that not only was Mux a reciprocate fan, but had a background in hip hop and desire to do more work as a producer. With any luck this, his remix of "The Hunter," will be the first in a number of collaborations between us. He absolutely killed this track, and I'm honored to have worked with him on it."
B. DOLAN is about to embark on a EUROPEAN TOUR in September of 2011! Catch him on the road with BUDDY PEACE & DAN LE SAC. Details here:
B. Dolan - Hunter (Mux Mool Remix)
The original version of the Hunter is available on the "Fallen House, Sunken City" album, available at itunes and on CD, vinyl & MP3 at

Sounds really nice on some quasi-dancehall shit. And now I know that American Apparel has a new thong tank top for chicks, maybe for dudes too, though I suspect the ads for that would be less appealing and more appalling.

THIBODAUX, La. – The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi volleyball team cruised to its sixth straight conference victory of the season with a 3-0 win (26-24, 25-9, 25-18) over Nicholls Monday evening at Stopher Gym. Ivy Baresh powered the Islanders, who have clinched 10 of its last 11 matches, with her 10th double-double of the season.
Baresh, who was named the Southland Conference Offensive Player of the Week today, recorded 15 kills, 18 digs and two service aces to lead the Islanders (13-7, 8-1 SLC) over the Colonels (5-15, 2-8 SLC). Sarah Sanchez registered a career-high six blocks, including four block assists and two blocks solos. The senior also chipped in eight kills on an impressive .412 hitting.
Senior Logen Bourque reached a new milestone tonight after passing out 36 assists. Last season at home against the Colonels, Bourque became the first Islander to reach 3,000 assists in a career. This season, she becomes the first Islander to reach 4,000 assists in a career with 4,013 with 10 regular-season matches left to play. Along with Sanchez, Shayla Maldonado helped power the Islanders' defense with 11 digs, her third straight match in double figures. The sophomore was tabbed the Southland Conference Defensive Player of the Week today.
The Islanders jumped out to a 17-10 lead in the first set and extended its lead to 19-13 on a kill by Haley Satterwhite Day and a Colonels' hitting error. Nicholls rallied back with a 4-1 run to pull within one at 22-21. After an Islanders' timeout, the Islanders pushed its lead back to two on a Nicholls' error, but straight points by the Colonels evened the set at 23-23. Both teams traded kills, before the Islanders closed the set on back-to-back Colonels' errors to win 26-24. The Islanders hit .130 in the set and limited the home team to just .073 hitting. Baresh led the set with six kills while Bourque dished out 13 assists.
In the second set, it was all Islanders from the start. Texas A&M – Corpus Christi opened with a 10-4 lead and built its biggest lead of the set at 20-8 on a 3-0 run. During the run, Sanchez tallied a kill and Nicholls committed back-to-back attacking errors. After a Colonels' point, Texas A&M - Corpus Christi scored five straight points to seal the second set 25-9. During the run, Baresh and Shaquinn Parker each put down a kill and Sanchez tallied an ace. The Islanders hit a set-high .318 while holding Nicholls to -.280. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi out-blocked the Colonels 5-1.
The Islanders kept the momentum rolling into the third set. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi jumped out to a 13-4 lead and maintained the lead through the whole set. The Islanders padded its lead to 21-14 on a 5-0 run after three Colonels' mishaps, an ace by Hailey King and a kill by Sanchez. After a point by Nicholls, Baresh hit consecutive kills to put the Islanders ahead by eight. The Colonels answered with three straight points before the Islanders won the set at 25-18 and the match 3-0. In the third set, the Islanders hit .150 behind Baresh's five kills. King recorded all eight of her digs in the third set to lead the Islanders' defense.
Texas A&M – Corpus Christi hit .176 in the match and limited the Colonels to .000 hitting. The Islanders also registered seven blocks.
The Islanders will return home to host Stephen F. Austin on Thursday, Oct. 17, in the annual Dig Pink match at the Dugan Wellness Center. First serve is set for 7 p.m. and the first 300 fans will receive a free t-shirt.

The show opens with a strong Runaway Jim- tight playing but nothing special. Equally tight performances of Guelah Papyrus and The Old Home Place follow. I really like the latter; it is one of my favorite bluegrass songs Phish plays. Cars Trucks and Buses is another fun first set song, and Page's work is great as usual.
Stash is the first interesting moment of the set. Full of tension and heavy guitar tones from Trey, this one concludes with a pretty strong peak. The sound quality of the recording definitely impeded the full enjoyment of the song unfortunately. Strange Design is a really pretty song, but otherwise not much to say about this one. Divided Sky is crisp and energetic. Trey's piercing guitar lines in the composed section of the song really shine through the fuzz of this recording. Billy Breathes is a beautiful ballad, but it seems out of place at this point in the set - on the whole it is starting to feel very up and down with poor flow. All of the songs are performed well, they just could have been arranged in a better sequence.
Taste brought the energy and creativity back up, but it was too little too late. A by-the-book Sample in a Jar closes this mediocre set out. The playing wasn't bad at all - all of the songs were played well with relatively few flubs (as far as I could make out through my recording). The set just felt uninspired overall. As the setlist shows, there was not a single ">" in the entire first set (and only one in the second). It seemed to lack flow and direction, and as a result this set fell a little flat.
The second set immediately kicks off with more energy than the first with a rocking Suzy Greenberg. As the opener winds down, the first legitimate show highlight begins with the light tapping of Fish's hi-hat: Maze. This Maze absolutely SMOKES. 1996 was a great year for the song, and this version is an unquestionable all-timer. Page's organ solo strays off the beaten path into legitimate Type II territory for a brief stint before Trey takes over. His solo climbs slowly and heavily, building a ferocious wall of sound before finishing with a menacing climax. Wow. Already two songs deep and the second set has completely blown the first set out of the water. Featuring abundant creativity and inspiration, this set already features playing on another level from the opening frame. After the closing chorus of Maze, the band immediately drops into a mid-2nd set YEM. After such a blistering Maze, a breather song would have been more than accepted, but instead the band choses to move right into their Magnum Opus.
This YEM is no slouch either. After a crisp composed section, including a perfect sustain of "The Note," the band is ready to dive into some funkier grooves. Page lays down a devastating solo during the tramps section, and Trey follows with an incredibly jazzy solo. (The audience starts clapping here which is very distracting and annoying on the aud). Trey's playing is so patient and sparse at the beginning of his solo - this quickly becomes an above average YEM. This morphs into a brief tease of Peter Frampton's "Do You Feel Like We Do" which is fun but does not derail the groove of the song whatsoever. Following this, Trey leaves the jazzier tone behind and begins to rip into a shredding guitar solo. The vocal jam was average.
Reba is next. An odd set placement late in the 2nd set, but welcomed nonetheless. I think that if it wasn't for the less than stellar quality of the AUD, this particular Reba would get way more attention. It's an incredibly beautiful version. Definitely better than your "average great" Reba. They should really consider releasing this version on a "From the Archives" or "Live Bait" release. It would be well worth it. The jam just soars and builds and builds and builds into a magnificent peak. No whistling and next is Waste, finally a cool down.
After Waste, Fishman starts up the drumbeat of Hood. Wow! What a set. Polar opposite of Set I, in my opinion. They really picked up the song selection and flow for Set II. There's nothing too special about this Hood, but it's a great end to a strong set.
This show is a perfect example of Fall 96. Nothing here is essential, or pushing boundaries the way the music did in 1995 and 1997. However, despite a lackluster first set without much flow or improvisation, the second set is full of highlights. The Maze and Reba are excellent, and YEM, Suzy and Hood are all strong versions as well.
The second set is worthy of at least a 4, but the first set drags this one down to a 3. Also, unfortunately, the sound quality is so poor that I doubt I'll revisit much besides the Maze and Reba.

Main Page | Risk Factors | Symptoms | Diagnosis | Treatment | Screening | Reducing Your Risk | Talking to Your Doctor | Living With Bipolar Disorder | Resource Guide
Bipolar disorder cannot be identified physiologically. That means it cannot be found by things like blood tests or brain scans. It is diagnosed based on symptoms and course of illness. When available, family history plays a role in diagnosis. The diagnostic criteria for bipolar disorder are described in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5).
Bipolar disorder is often diagnosed based on the following:
Mania could be diagnosed based on an abnormally elevated mood. It must last at least one week. It also must occur with 3 or more of the other symptoms of mania. If your mood is irritable, 4 additional symptoms must be present.
Depression is diagnosed based on depressed mood or loss of interest in pleasure. It must occur every day, or nearly every day. This must last 2 weeks, and be accompanied by 5 or more of the symptoms.
A diagnostic evaluation may include a mental status exam. This helps determine if your speech, thought patterns, or memory have been affected. Sometimes this happens in the case of bipolar disorder.
You may also be evaluated for other psychiatric conditions. These include anxiety disorders, or alcohol or drug abuse . You will also be evaluated for other potential medical and neurological causes for your symptoms.

Hopu Investment Is Back in the Private-Equity Game
After it launched its first investment fund five years ago, Hopu Investment Management Co. helped to reshape China's private-equity landscape, and now it's back after a two-year hiatus.
The firm, headed by rainmaker Fang Fenglei, formerly of Goldman Sachs China, has raised a new fund with $1.1 billion under management, and there may be scope for the fund to increase in size, according to a person familiar with the situation.
Yashili International Holdings said Monday that a consortium including Singapore's Temasek Holdings Pte. Ltd. and Hopu jointly invested about $213 million in the Chinese formula maker, with Hopu spending around $80 million to take 5% stake.
Mr. Fang set up Hopu in 2008 with Richard Ong, previously co-head of investment banking in Asia excluding Japan for Goldman Sachs, and Dominic Ho, former co-chairman of accounting firm KPMG LLP's Hong Kong and China practice, who had come out of retirement to join the fund.
Mr. Ong left Hopu in early 2011 to set up his own fund, RRJ Capital, while Mr. Ho retired went into retirement again, leaving Mr. Fang in charge of divesting the fund's remaining assets.
Mr. Fang was joined by Bi Mingjian and Cliff Chau in establishing the new fund, the person said. Mr. Bi was a senior banker at China International Capital Corp., an investment bank, and Mr. Chau was managing director and head of China Investment Corp.'s finance department, according to CIC's 2009 annual report.
Hopu's first fund, which had $2.5 billion under management, mobilized foreign capital to invest in some of China's most high-profile state-owned firms and projects. In 2009 Hopu paid Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC about $400 million for part of its stake in Bank of China, and it later led a consortium that included Bank of China's investment-banking arm, BOC International Holdings Ltd., as well as China Life Insurance (Group) Co. that paid $7.3 billion for part of Bank of America stake in China Construction Bank

Philippines 1st Runner-Up in Miss Universe
Janine Tugonon placed second in the Miss Universe in Las Vegas, Nevada, despite a groundswell of support in her native Philippines. Miss U.S.A., Olivia Culpo, took the Miss Universe crown, while Miss Venezuela, Irene Sofia Esser Quintero, placed third.
The trio were part of the final five along with Brazil and Australia.
The Philippines is no stranger to the Miss Universe final. Last year, the country's Shamcey Supsup took third place, while Venus Raj took fourth place the year before.
During the question-and-answer portion of the competition, Ms. Tugonon responded to a question sent via Twitter that asked whether speaking English should be a "prerequisite" for the competition.
Ms. Tugonon answered: "For me, being Miss Universe is not just about knowing how to speak a specific language. It's about being able to influence and inspire other people."
The result sparked a wave of commentary on social-media networks, with several of Ms. Tugonon's supporters likening the result to Manny Pacquiao's recent loss against Juan Manuel Marquez. Read some of the reactions on Twitter:

Leon Hiebert was pastor of Andover Assembly of God (Generations Church A/G) from 1989 to 2009. He is a Viet Nam veteran who spent 10 years in the US Navy most of the time as a corpsman serving with the Marine Corps. A native of Belleville, Kan., Hiebert is semi retired and lives in Andover with his wife, Sharon. He is a school bus driver for USD 385, Andover, Kansas.
Scripture: Luke 17:15 One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice.
16 He threw himself at Jesus' feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan.
17 Jesus asked, "Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine?
18 Was no-one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?"
19 Then he said to him, "Rise and go; your faith has made you well."
Observation: On my regular school bus route, very few of the students say, "Thanks" when getting off the bus. The two or three that do almost every day stand out in my mind. To me, it speaks well of their parents. I have also noticed that those who follow someone expressing thanks are more likely to do the same. It is not like saying, "Thank you," is hard to do, they had just not thought about it.
Application: To say, "Thanks," costs me nothing! It is really the least I can do. I need to make sure I express appreciation for every act of kindness shown to me today. I can use new words and phrases; and I can verbalize them with a tone of voice that communicates sincerity. I can look them in the eye.
Prayer: Lord, I can start with you. Thank you for your many expressions of kindness to me. May my appreciation be seen in that I pass them along to others. Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

The British Library's business services are to be extended to six new centres based at patent libraries across the UK.
The British Library hopes to replicate the success of its London-based Business & IP Centre – which supports SMEs, start-ups, inventors and entrepreneurs – on a national level. The new centres will be based in participating libraries in Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle and Sheffield.
The British Library received seed-funding from the Intellectual Property Office (IPO) in 2012 allowing the new centres to go ahead. Newcastle Libraries have already helped over 2,000 local entrepreneurs since opening their pilot Business & IP Centre, and they will be launching the centre as a permanent fixture in Spring this year.
The initiative has also been made possible thanks to two streams of funding from the public and private sector. Eric Pickles, secretary of state for communities and local government, has announced funding for the project as part of the £600,000 put towards the Enterprising Libraries project over the next two years, in partnership with Arts Council England.
In addition, Barclays has agreed to support the roll out of the Library's Inspiring Entrepreneurs events programme across the six cities. Past events at the British Library have included speakers such as Lord Sugar, Tim Campbell and Orla Kiely.
Roly Keating, chief executive of the British Library, said: "With our partner libraries in Newcastle, Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield, the British Library has a vision for a national network of innovation and IP support that will boost the entrepreneurial drive and success of the UK."
Communities secretary, Eric Pickles, said: "This fantastic project will give communities business support and turn town and village libraries into incubators of innovation."

Mission Statement & History
The mission of the Professional Education Unit for Teacher Education at Concord University is to prepare professional educators who are informed and thoughtful decision-makers capable of teaching a wide array of students and specializations in culturally diverse settings. The Professional Education Unit strives to provide all teacher candidates the knowledge and skills necessary to become effective teachers by offering the highest quality instruction and programs utilizing all available resources efficiently and effectively. The Graduate Program strives to further develop and enhance the knowledge base of the practicing professional. As individuals progress though the graduate curriculum, the improvement and refinement of professional knowledge bases, reflective analysis of practice, and judgment making capabilities are enhanced and refined.
The Professional Education Unit collaborates with representatives from public schools, professional groups, government, and other programs within the University to prepare educators and to cooperate in the development of educational policies. The Professional Education Unit also strives for the improvement of education at the local, state, regional, and national levels in that the improvement of schooling results in a more literate and enlightened citizenry. This in turn contributes to the proliferation of democratic values and enhances our position in the global economy.
Concord University was chartered as Concord State Normal School in 1872 for the purpose of preparing teachers for public schools. The name was changed to Concord State Teachers College in l931. In 1943, the name was changed to Concord College to reflect a transformation of the institution to a liberal arts college. In the summer of 2002 Concord was granted approval for the offering of graduate courses on a limited basis. Full approval of the graduate program was granted in August, 2003. The development of a graduate program was in alignment with the overall mission to serve southern West Virginia and to provide a quality program for the practicing professionals in the region. In 2004, the name was changed to Concord University.
The preparation of teachers continues to play a significant role at Concord University as approximately twenty-five percent of the students who graduate each year earn degrees in education. This history of commitment to teacher education combined with a current mission statement that emphasizes high quality instruction creates a context of high expectations for the teacher education program at Concord University. In response to that challenge, the Professional Education Unit began an extensive effort at program articulation and development. This effort included faculty, students, administration, and public school professionals who came together in a spirit of collaboration to read, discuss, and write about their vision of the ideal teacher education program for Concord University.
This collaboration led to the articulation of The Informed and Thoughtful Decision-Maker (ITD-M) conceptual framework. The ITD-M concept establishes a common language that faculty, students, and public school professionals use when considering program design and the complexities of teaching.

SAN FRANCISCO -- A woman who died Thursday after being run over by a San Francisco Recreation and Parks pickup truck was a Zen monk and married mother of an infant daughter, co-workers said.
Christine Svanemyr, 35, was hit as she laid in the grass Thursday afternoon with her 11-month-old daughter and dog at Holly Park, in the city's Bernal Heights neighborhood. The driver was a city employee, identified by police on Friday as 57-year-old Thomas Burnoski. He was arrested on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter and felony hit-and-run because he allegedly drove away after striking Svanemyr, police said.
Burnoski, of San Francisco, was being held Friday at the San Francisco County Jail, San Francisco police Officer Albie Esparza said.
Around 2:20 p.m. Thursday, officers rushed to the park after getting report a woman had been run over and that the driver had driven off, according to San Francisco police Officer Tracy Turner. Svanemyr was taken to the hospital and was later pronounced dead. Her daughter and dog, sitting with her on the south end of the park, south of the tennis courts, were not hurt, police said.
Svanemyr was an ordained Zen monk who worked as director of enrollment at New Ventures West, a San Francisco-based school that trains life coaches. Her husband, Vegar, also works there.
"Christy was full of brilliance, passion and kindness," according to a statement from the school. "Her high energy and infectious enthusiasm impacted everything and everyone she touched."
She had been part of a professional African dance group called Azagano, which led to her performing all over the world including at the World Cup in South Korea. She graduated magna cum laude in both anthropology and sociology, as well as ecotourism and recreation management from West Virginia University, said Svanemyr's profile on the school's website.
"Her greatest joy and teacher is her daughter Isa Amalie," the profile said.
Burnoski was detained a few blocks from the park and was arrested, police said

According to recreation and parks spokeswoman Sarah Ballard, Burnoski worked for the department since January 2006.
Phil Ginsburg, general manager for the department, released a statement late Thursday saying the department is cooperating with the San Francisco Police Department's hit-and-run unit as it investigates the incident.
"I would like to express my deepest condolences to the family and friends of the victim of a tragic accident that occurred at Holly Park this afternoon," he said in the statement. "This is a devastating day for all."
Patricia Leach, who has lived in the neighborhood off and on since the 1960s, said she has seen more recreation and parks vehicles recently in Holly Park's grassy areas, some driving quickly.
"They drive too fast, and there's no need," Leach said.
According to the California Department of Motor Vehicles, Burnoski's driving record is clean except for a March 2012 citation for driving while using a cellphone in Alameda County.
After Thursday's crash, police gave Burnoski a drug and alcohol test. The results from that toxicology test could take several weeks to be complete, police said.
According to public records, including the Fresno County's Coroner's Office, Burnoski's 20-year-old daughter, Tiffany Faith Burnoski, died April 6 in a fatal car crash on Interstate 5 in Fresno County, authorities said Monday.
His daughter was in the passenger seat when the driver, 20-year-old Casey Chow of San Francisco, lost control of a 1998 Toyota Corolla near Coalinga, a California Highway Patrol officer said.

Gee's Bend quilters to hold program Thursday
Published: Wednesday, March 6, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 5, 2013 at 11:37 p.m.
Three quilters from the Gee's Bend community on Thursday will sing, demonstrate hand-sewing quilt patterns and narrate accounts of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s visit to the Wilcox County community in the 1960s.
The program will be 5-8 p.m. Thursday at the Mildred Westervelt Warner Transportation Museum,
The program coincides with the museum's exhibit that documents King's influence on neighboring Selma, "Selma to Montgomery: The March for the Right to Vote." In the 1960s, the city of Camden shut down the ferry to discourage residents from voting for equality after King visited Gee's Bend.

Cigarette Depot opens in Hendersonville
Published: Wednesday, June 11, 2014 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, June 10, 2014 at 4:43 p.m.
Cigarette Depot, a new tobacco and smoking accessories store in Hendersonville, is seeing an interesting trend among local smokers, who now have options ranging from loose tobacco to electronic cigarettes.
"We have pretty much everything you're going to need in the tobacco industry," said co-owner Greg Workman.
With the rise of the e-cigarette, Cigarette Depot is stocked with the top brand kits and e-liquids, including ECTO World, Totally Wicked and White Rhino products. Workman said the store has about 60 flavors of e-liquid, or "e-juice," for use in e-cigarettes, at various price points.
Though the "vapes," or e-cigarettes, are big sellers, Workman said roll-your-own cigarettes are making a comeback.
"It's really inexpensive," he said. "A pound of tobacco, a rolling machine, some tubes and a lighter is about equivalent to about 3 cartons of cigarettes — for the price of one (carton)."
"The younger crowd is actually going to the roll-your-own," he said. "The older crowd is switching to the vapor cigarettes" to get the nicotine fix but cut out the additional chemicals.
Cigarette Depot also sells traditional packed cigarettes, chewing tobacco and tobacco pipes, along with hookahs and shisha.
The hookahs, towers with five hoses for multiple people to smoke the shisha, are popular with the hookah-smoking population that has had to travel to Asheville to shop.
"We've also been receiving requests from the public," Workman said, adding that if there's a certain brand of rolling tobacco, shisha or other smoking accessory a customer wants, "We'll definitely get it for them."
"We tend to cater to everyone," he added.
Cigarette Depot is located at 671 Spartanburg Highway in Hendersonville, and is open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Call 828-595-9556 for more information.

BELPRE - A fire that left a home a total loss broke out around 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in the 2800 block of Frame Drive in Belpre, officials said.
Belpre Fire Chief Bob Frank said no one was injured in the blaze. A cause has not been determined, but fire officials did not believe the fire was suspicious in nature.
The two occupants, owner George VanFossen and his daughter Teresa Wheeler, were able to escape the house at 2808 Frame Drive from a rear exit. Family and friends were looking for their cat, Brutus, who was later discovered alive by police officers.

Belpre firefighters hit hot spots at a house fire at 2808 Frame Drive. The home's two residents were able to make it out safely.
The fire is believed to have originated at the front porch area where there was a workshop, said Assistant Fire Chief Bruce Cowdery with the Belpre Volunteer Fire Department.
The house is expected to be a total loss, Cowdery said.
Officials said the American Red Cross was called to assist the family, which lost almost all belongings in the blaze.
The initial call was the house was fully engulfed and there was possible entrapment, officials said. Fire crews said the Little Hocking Volunteer Fire Department was called to assist Belpre crews because they were concerned for the safety of the surrounding houses.
Cowdery said the fire was "fully involved" when crews arrived. He said it was difficult for firefighters to reach a fire hydrant because there wasn't one on Frame Drive.
The closest hydrant was on Washington Boulevard near the Redwood Restaurant, he said.
"We did have trouble (because) there was no fire hydrant on the street," Cowdery said.
The fire was under control around 7 p.m., Cowdery said.
Neighbor Vicky Burd said she was getting out of her vehicle after parking in her driveway at 2806 Frame Drive when she noticed the beginning of the fire. She said the flames were low but it didn't take long for them to do damage.
Two other neighbors were on their way by the house when Burd yelled at them to call 911. The neighbors called in the blaze, and Burd said the response time was quick.
"It just happened so fast," Burd said. "They're wonderful neighbors, nice people."
Burd said she has lived next door to the father and daughter for about five and a half years.
"It started right there in front of the car," Burd said, pointing to a Chrysler.
Fire crews said the front of the vehicle sustained damage. A damage estimate on the house was not immediately available.
Belpre Volunteer Fire Department had 19 firefighters on the scene to fight the fire and received mutual aid from Little Hocking Volunteer Fire Department with 20 firefighters.
Officers with the Belpre Police Department responded to the scene.

Marriage, the sequel for 'Star Wars' creator Lucas
Published: Tuesday, June 25, 2013 at 8:31 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, June 25, 2013 at 8:31 a.m.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — It's marriage, episode II for George Lucas.
A Lucasfilm spokeswoman confirms the "Star Wars" creator married longtime girlfriend Mellody Hobson in a weekend ceremony at Skywalker Ranch north of San Francisco.
It's the second wedding for the 69-year-old Lucas, who was married to film editor Marcia Lucas from 1969 to 1983.
It's the first marriage for Hobson, 44, an investment firm president and contributor to ABC's "Good Morning America." The two have dated since 2006. Former U.S. Sen. Bill Bradley walked her down the aisle.
The Saturday afternoon ceremony was performed by journalist Bill Moyers, who was once a Baptist minister.
Guests included filmmakers Steven Spielberg and Ron Howard, who said on Twitter that the wedding was "a joy to behold" and Moyers' service "nothing short of profound."

OAKLAND -- Four people were shot on the 1700 block of Telegraph Avenue on Saturday afternoon, marking the second shooting involving multiple victims in the city in the past 24 hours.
One of the victims, a man, is listed in critical condition at an area hospital. The other three victims are listed in noncritical condition, according to Sgt. Jeff Thomason of the Oakland Police Department, and all are expected to survive.
Officers responded to the area around 4:08 p.m. and blocked off Telegraph Avenue between 16th and 18th streets. Details regarding what happened were scarce and no suspect information was available. The Uptown area is home to many popular restaurants and hangouts, including the famous Fox Theater and bar Make Westing.
It marked the second shooting involving numerous victims in the past 24 hours in Oakland.
Just after 11 p.m. Friday, two people, one of whom was a 38-year-old Oakland man, were shot dead and a third was critically injured after someone opened fire at a birthday party at a home in the 400 block of 105th Avenue in the Sobrante Park neighborhood.
Police were trying to determine Saturday if a fourth man who showed up later at a hospital with gunshot wounds was also a victim from the party.
Police and Crime Stoppers of Oakland are offering as much as $25,000 in reward money for information leading to the arrest of suspects in that incident.

Omaha -- Home of Steak, Warren Buffett And Cutting-Edge Biopharmaceutical Research
Cutting-Edge Biopharmaceutical Research in Nebraska
10.28.13 | By
Until this morning, on the rare occasions when I thought of Omaha, Nebraska, I would conjure up images of Warren Buffett, thick juicy steaks, a clean quiet Midwestern city and friendly, laid-back folks, not necessarily in that order.
I learned today that I was not inaccurate, all of the above is true, but my picture was far from complete.
I was leaving out cutting-edge biopharmaceutical clinical research conducted with biopharmaceutical research companies by such institutions as the University of Nebraska Medical Center, the Department of Psychiatry at Creighton University, Creighton's Cardiac Center and the Missouri Valley Cancer Consortium.
We released Research in Your Backyard: Pharmaceutical Clinical Trials in Nebraska today at a well-attended news conference at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. And it soon became apparent that because of its rock-solid biomedical research infrastructure, Omaha has been the main attraction of biopharmaceutical companies seeking to partner with Nebraska research institutions on clinical trials.
More than 1,400 trials of new medicines have been conducted in this pleasant Missouri River city by the companies and their local research collaborators, and that's out of a total of 1,937 they've conducted altogether in Nebraska since 1999.
More than half of the city's trials have targeted the nation's most debilitating chronic diseases -- cancer, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, asthma and mental illnesses.
And it's important that nearly 150 of the chronic disease medicine trials in Omaha are still active and recruiting patients. Cancer patients considering clinical trials would have 80 trials to consider, while diabetics would have 23 and heart disease patients 21. Ten trials of new treatments for stroke are available, as are eight for asthma and five for mental illness.
Yes, there are excellent steak restaurants and friendly people residing in this pretty city. But there's much more -- respected research institutions that have partnered with biopharmaceutical companies on clinical trials of new patient treatments, making Omaha a competitive clinical research center in the Midwest.

Rep. John Lewis Deals Blow to Boggs Nomination
Rep. John Lewis(D., Ga.), who has spent decades working on civil-rights issues, on Monday came out against a White House nominee picked to serve as a U.S. District Court judge in Georgia, saying that the Obama administration's choice had a troubling record that he had misrepresented to a Senate committee.
The comments further undercut Michael Boggs, a judge on the Georgia Court of Appeals who was nominated by the Obama administration as part of a compromise to fill a half-dozen judicial vacancies in Georgia. Mr. Boggs used a confirmation hearing last week to back away from positions he had taken on subjects like putting the symbol of the Confederacy on the state flag, saying he had been representing constituents and not expressing personal views.
More In Nominees
"Based on the evidence revealed during this hearing, I do not support the confirmation of Michael Boggs to the federal bench," Mr. Lewis said in a statement. "His record is in direct opposition to everything I have stood for during my career, and his misrepresentation of that record to the committee is even more troubling."
Many Senate Democrats had last week expressed reservations about Mr. Boggs, but had stopped short of saying they would reject him outright. Some Democrats appeared to be weighing the reaction of the African-American community, with Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) telling CNN over the weekend that although she was still undecided on Mr. Boggs, she had checked with Mr. Lewis, who she said thought the deal between the White House and Georgia's Republican senators resulted in a "good ticket."
Mr. Boggs was recommended by Georgia Republican Sens. Johnny Isakson and Saxby Chambliss as part of a compromise to fill six judicial vacancies.
Rep. David Scott (D., Ga.) took to Twitter to say that if Mr. Lewis had in fact endorsed the nominee, Mr. Lewis was "a turncoat." The series of rapid-fire Twitter posts put Mr. Lewis under pressure to issue a statement.
.@nielslesniewski @jbendery @SenFeinstein if this is true, then Rep Lewis is a turncoat who has betrayed African Americans, women and gays
— David Scott (@repdavidscott) May 18, 2014
"I have fought long and hard and even put my life on the line for the cause of equal rights and social justice," Mr. Lewis said in the statement. "My commitment to these ideals has never changed, and my record is solid and unwavering. I take a back-seat to no one and have been at the forefront for decades in defense of the right to marry, a women's right to choose, and the imperative of non-violence as a means of dissent," adding "I am not about to change that now."
Mr. Lewis added that he had "tried to refrain from making public statements out of respect for my colleagues and the Senate process," saying that "this willingness to permit due process is all that I have indicated in any conversation I may have had with my colleagues. I did not at any time indicate my support for the Boggs nomination or say that he had the backing of the African American community in Georgia."

02.04.2012 | Off Court, Starseite 3
In celebration of the Olympic Games in London 2012, the names of 361 tube stations will be changed to carry the names of Olympic athletes. Roger will have his own stop near the city centre. "Roger Federer" will be one of the stops on the black line, the so-called Northern Line and will replace the normal stop "Old Street".
Athletes like Lionel Messi, Samuel Eto'o, Usain Bolt, Fabian Cancellara, Carl Lewis, Michael Jordan and Muhammad Ali will be honoured with their own tube station stops during the Olympics this summer.
