Walling off access: medication abortion restrictions
For Abortion Access Month, the National Women's Health Network shines a spotlight on medication abortion, which can be taken very early in pregnancy and is available in some states via long-distance consultation with medical providers, potentially reducing travel time and expense for people who live far from an abortion clinic. However, politicians are taking dramatic steps to prevent the availability of this alternative.
Excerpted from "Stop State Attacks on Medication Abortion!" by Kate Ryan, Senor Program Coordinator, National Women's Health Network, and Chris Olah, Senior Associate, Reproductive Health Technologies Project.
This month marks the 13th anniversary of U.S. approval of Mifeprex, the "early abortion pill," which provides women with greater access to abortion care across the country.
When personal healthcare decisions need to be made, people appreciate having options available, and abortion care is no different. Access to medication abortion means that women in the U.S. can terminate a pregnancy without a surgical procedure, at lower cost, and can carry out some or all of the process in their own home. Unfortunately, attacks on abortion access by ultra-conservatives are restricting women's access to this safe and effective option for early abortions. These state legislative attacks run the gamut from restricting who can administer the abortion pill to limiting where or how it can be given to women.

What would you sell?
Earlier this week abortion fund activists shared a few of the things they say to people who call for assistance. Here are just a few of the things abortion fund advocates report that callers have sacrificed to get one step closer to an abortion they need:
What would you sell?
Please take action today and sign the petition to repeal the Hyde Amendment. No one should have to sacrifice basic necessities just to get the health care that is their right.

Mind the gap: infographic
Abortion has been legal in the US for more than 40 years. But roadblocks, detours, delays and staggering costs all mean that abortion is nearly out of reach for many. It's time for a conversation about why so many people are kept at the margins, and what that means for their lives.
Join us this month for Abortion Access Month -- and mind the gap.

Mind the gap: September is Abortion Access Month
By National Network of Abortion Fund board members Eesha Pandit and Verónica Bayetti Flores. Cross-posted from Feministing.
What does it really take to get an abortion in America?
September is Abortion Access Month, and an important time to think about this question. As it turns out, it takes quite a bit to get an abortion in this country, and as states across the nation pile on waiting periods, ultrasound requirements, bans, and other barriers, accessing safe and legal abortion care is becoming more difficult by the day. One of the biggest hurdles for folks seeking abortion care is the fact that, for many, it is quite simply unaffordable. Who are the folks that cannot afford abortion care?

Tell West Virginia's Attorney General: Stop targeting abortion providers!
Update: Thank you so much to all who contacted Attorney General Morrisey. You spoke up loud and clear -- comments are now closed, but we will keep you posted on the upcoming rally in Charleston on Tuesday, August 20th and how you can participate from afar.
State by state, politicians are seizing on copycat regulations targeting abortion providers as a way to limit abortion access -- and now West Virginia's Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is trying to personally get in on the action. He bypassed the West Virginia legislature and is calling for a "review" of abortion clinic regulations, with the aim of closing down the state's last two clinics.
Attorney General Morrisey is inviting public comment "from West Virginia and elsewhere." Click here to tell him: stop targeting abortion providers!

"It's important that people understand what access really means."
Watch Katherine Miller, a volunteer with the Lilith Fund for Reproductive Equity, as she's interviewed by ABC News in Austin, Texas, on the day that Governor Rick Perry signed sweeping abortion restrictions into law: "It's very important that people understand what access really means. It's not just for rich women. These laws make it so that only certain women of certain means are going to be able to access medical care."

News 12 First at Five/ Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2014
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- A local company is changing the face of ADHD testing. For years, clinical diagnosis has been the only option available to doctors, but a small research company out of Augusta has come up with a way to measure brain waves to help more accurately diagnose patients with ADHD.
It's a test Jill Sharpe is happy to hear about. She has a son that doctors have tried to test for ADHD.
"I had some teachers tell me maybe he should get tested for ADHD because they noticed he wasn't behaving like he should have," she said.
Since her son, John Thomas, was 6 years old, he's been in and out of doctors offices as doctors try to pinpoint his problem.
"We're still in the middle of testing, and he's in the sixth grade, so it's a long process," she explains.
They've looked at ADHD, Asperger Syndrome, Autism, along with a handful of other disorders, sampling different medications along the way.
"I don't want to drug my son up for something he really doesn't need. It might be something else because a lot of medications out there have stunted his growth. He has been on medications before where he was so little," she says.
That's why the new ADHD test, desinged by NEBA Health is giving her hope that they can finally either rule out ADHD as a problem, or accurately diagnose her son.
"I really would like to find out what's really his diagnosis. It's kinda like we're in the box and we just don't know. I really want to find out what is really wrong with my son," she said.
That's where NEBA will hopefully come into play, an extra layer of assessment on top of the tools doctors already use.
Howard Merry, the President of NEBA Health, says, "The doctor still uses all their standard tools and assessment protocols they just apply NEBA at the very end of it."
NEBA is intended to test kids 6-18 and is completely pain free. Merry says, "There's electrodes placed on the face and top of the head and the one on the top of the head is where we're really getting the EEG data we're interested in."
In clinical trials, using NEBA has helped doctors reduce over diagnosis of ADHD to around 3%.
The product was approved by the FDA this past year, and several healthcare providers have already started using it. For more information on finding a physician near you, go to nebahealth.com.

Three-Wheeled Gas-Powered 'Car' Gets 60 MPG
- Apr 23, 2009 6:55 PM EST
- [num] Comments
Motorcycle fans give plenty of reasons for their enthusiasm, but one of the lesser-known ones is fuel economy. Smaller 250cc models like the Honda Rebel often exceed 60 mpg in regular use, for example.
ECO Motor Car Company, an independent automaker, has taken this idea to the next logical step: why not wrap a car around a motorcycle, and dispense with all the hybrid and electric car frivolity? The result is the EMC3, a full-fledged two-seater motorcycle, according to the Department of Transportation. That means no 25 mph limits like ZAP neighborhood electric vehicles, according to Autopia. In other words, it's basically a car--minus one of the rear wheels.
The EMC3 weighs about 1,400 pounds, depending on transmission, and is powered by a 1.0 liter, 52-horsepower, three-cylinder engine. It handles like a car, not a motorcycle, and averages 60 mpg on the road, according to the report. ECO Motor Car Company expects to begin selling the EMC3 next month for between $13,995 and $14,995, depending on options.

"Email inbox? Check."
"OmniFocus inbox? Check."
"Physical inbox which is usually empty? Check."
Nothing like a clean inbox where thoughts, ideas, bills, and other crap have been processed and converted into actions. But all is not well in my self-deluded world. There's one more inbox that continues to be ignored despite having it available at my fingertips every waking moment that I have.
That inbox is called Instapaper.
Instapaper, the popular "read later" app created by super-developer Marco Arment, has taken reading to new heights. Simply put, Instapaper stores the content of an article sans stylings, ads, and other elements that are irrelevent to the piece of writing. The basic intent of this app was to have distraction-free reading materials available offline and in one place so you can read at will with the luxury of typographical and minimalistic bliss.
However, I take full blame for my neglection. What had occured was a simple case of "out of sight, out of mind". Instead of tossing things in there knowing that I'll get to it eventually — they ended up going unnoticed.
For example, I'm sure we all have something like this stored in our Instapaper queue.
Or maybe its just me.
Either way, lately I've been noticing that I've been tossing more and more stuff into Instapaper — stuff that I do intend to read. But with the going rate of processing, the Instapaper-stored content — which were full of hopes and dreams of being read — now end up rotting away into irrelevent and outdated junk.
So, I decided to do something about it. If there was one thing that I was successful with in keeping my scatter-brain organized was by learning the dark art of Getting Things Done. So instinctively, I decided that I must start processing the stored information in a methodical and disciplined manner.
My 2nd Everything Bucket
While OmniFocus is my everything bucket for actions and stuff that I need to do, Instapaper has become my everything bucket for reading. While this idea wasn't too much of a problem when I first started using Instapaper during its launch, the evolution of the app has brought upon the evolution of my usage.
When Marco released the API for the Instapaper service, more and more apps have added the obligatory "Send to Instapaper" feature. With that being said, the main agents for Instapaper becoming a repository for my reading-material triage sessions are Tweetbot, Reeder, the Javascript bookmarklet, and the private email address that Instapaper associates with each account.
Instead of just sending an article about what iOS 4.1 and its new Game Center feature will include, I now Instapaper1: - Articles about web development and technology news concerning my day job - Pittsburgh Steelers news - Comic book articles - Emails that I want to read later which I know aren't time senstive (family photos from events) - Coffee Recipes and techniques - Articles and posts that I plan to link on Gridwriter and - Research materials for projects that I am working on
Note: I will refer to all of the above as "content" from here on out
With the amount of doorways and the amount of content that I keep tabs on, the more it accumulates. Adversly, the more content that I cannot get to will lead to more information rotting.
Processing the Read Later Inbox
As I mentioned above, to solve this information overload issue, I decided to take a GTD-type approach to it. As for the gathering of content, that could be considered the "dump". Just straight out dumping information into one place for safe keeping — the inbox. So if Instapaper's root folder "Read Later" is the inbox, "clearly" what comes next is processing of said inbox.
I like to do most of my processing in a web browser2 due its speed and the capabilities. Of course I am not limited to just the browser as the Instapaper iOS apps provide a lot of sharing options as well.
So with my web browser open I can go in one of three routes.
Priority = Open To Read On The Spot
When it is a time-sensitive piece for a project or a link that I plan on linking to my site, I tend to read it on the spot by opening in another tab. With the link open in another tab, I can take a couple of approaches to it which is determined by its purpose. More on that in the next section.
Non-Priority = Send to Folder
If the article that I've come across isn't time sensitive, I'll toss them into a folder. As of now, there are two folders that I've created.
The first is labeled Reads which has the role of housing anything that I would want to read at my leisure.
The second folder is labeled Research which houses content that I intend to apply towards another project but don't need to read immediately.
Post-Processing and Curation
After everything has been processed and sorted out of the inbox, that is when the most satisfying of phases can resume — reading.
With the priority links that I opened up in the browser, I can either post them on this site using MarsEdit (Writing Kit if using an iOS device), or clip it with the OmniFocus Clip-o-tron 3000 (or copy and paste link into OmniFocus for iOS) if I need to take action on it later.
When I have some down time, that is when I read the content in my "Reads" folder — which I do exclusively on the iPad. Reading on the iPad gives me the overall feeling of luxury — as if I'm lounging around in my manchair in a plush robe while sipping on something expensive — even if I'm reading something lowbrow like What if Superheroes were Hipsters3.
After reading, then comes the post-processing/curation phase. What do I want to do with the item I just read? Is it something worthwhile that I want to recall?
Using the Superhero Hipster article I mentioned above, that would be something that I want to store away for future "Hey check this out, haha!" moments. That is when I would send it to Pinboard. Fortunately in the iOS app, you can link your Pinboard account to Instapaper and send items either by liking it and having Instapaper automatically send it to Pinboard, or by using the Pinboard sharing button — my preferred way.
This doesn't just apply to articles that have cheap laughs. Project research, inspiration, techniques, nerd posts about what apps people use — they all get sent to Pinboard if deemed worthy. Simply tagging the bookmarks gives me enough metadata to sort out those bookmarks later.
The greatest feature of Pinboard is its Archiving premium feature. I used to use Evernote to clip the content of a webpage. However unlike the browser extension for Google Chrome, It annoyed me how the browser bookmarklet doesn't have the capability to maintain the appearance of the page's CSS. With Pinboard's Archiving feature, it does a spot-on job.
As I mentioned before, I sometimes forward emails to Instapaper. Unless I come to find out that the email item is completely worthless in terms of content, I usually file those emails away to Evernote using the Evernote sharing feature. Evernote will keep both the content and the attachments4 of the email5 so I can recall them as needed.
Same concept as the Processing phase. If the article has prompted me to take action upon it such as in the case of project research, I'll send it to OmniFocus using the Send To OmniFocus sharing button within the Instapaper app.
Pretty self-explanatory. If I want to share the link via Twitter, then I can go ahead and use the Post with Tweetbot button within the app.
Everything else
While I am a stout believer in not deleting anything, I delete the articles that do not get shared to another service. The main reason I do this because I just want to do my part in helping the service as Marco has pointed out that:
"Instapaper is designed to store links you'd like to read once and then discard"
and that
"…Instapper isn't optimized for keeping track of thousands of pages. This isn't the right tool to collect, categorize, tag, filter, and search the contents of every web page you've ever found…"
Despite having a subscription service which does allow Instapaper to function more like a bookmark site by implementing search in all folders, I see my subscription as my contribution to the service.
Part of me feels like I'm taking the soul away of Instapaper. As Marco pointed out, he created Instapaper in response to the fact that "…we don't have time to read long articles right when we find them". What I personally take from the statement is that Instapaper should be a home for quality (subjective) writing. However I am reminded of Shawn Blanc's post on tttask — the bucket he wishes he had for everything else. He mentioned how Instapaper seemed like a viable solution, yet knew that its original intent were not of that purpose. Instapaper is such a versatile service, that for me, it has become the closest thing to the tttask service that Shawn had wished for. Now I just have to make sure I treat it as such.

Would I really care to know the future? Facing lung cancer, I am periodically asked, "How long do you have?" I respond, "How about you? How long do you have?"
No one of us knows the number of our days, or anything else for sure. A fortuneteller in New York read my Tarot cards.
"Don't worry about anything," she said. So I don't.
How much do I worry about the future? I worried when the radiologist said my hair might never grow back. Yet here I am with a mohawk. A lot of good worry did me. Life, you know, can change on a dime. That's what makes us human.
I don't know anyone who doesn't obsess about the future, tooth-breaking, pension-fund losses. Forget those who say they live in the here-and-now. They'll never eat a tongue sandwich, and what fun is that?
Steven Spielberg's new film, "Minority Report," is not exactly a deep take on the problems of "knowing," but since you'll probably see it anyway, here's where it brought me.
The film, based on a science fiction story by Philip K. Dick, argues that the future can indeed be known. Moreover, our security depends upon finding a Pinchas, a zealot who knows what crimes are being committed, and personally stops them. So anxious are we to hire this Pinchas, this future-knower, that we would sacrifice our freedoms for him.
It is 2054 in a dark, police-state Washington, D.C, all murder has been foretold by three mermaid-type creatures called "precogs," so named because they have pre-cognition. The crimes are prerecorded in the future, then replayed in real time, at which point they are interrupted and prevented by a "precrime" squad headed by John Anderton (Tom Cruise), the very Pinchas we are seeking. Pretty neat.
We watch on translucent computer screens as a husband is shown killing his wife after finding her in bed with her lover. It's hard to look away from those screens as the future dances by. When the murder is about to occur, Anderton swoops onto the real-life crime scene exactly like Pinchas in last week's Torah portion. He interrupts that very murder we were watching. Unlike the biblical Pinchas, a life has been saved.
The film lost me soon after, as plot holes appeared. Yet it was enticing. The same precogs, recording the future in order to prevent murders, could also be recording ordinary life, the births, love affairs, scientific advances.
These precogs, if we had them now, would know everything; how long I have to live, and if the clinical trial will work.
But would I want that? Isn't interrupting normal life a form of "zealotry," too -- destroying the mystery and the magic of life unknown? Pinchas could satisfy curiosity about my personal fate, but he'd also be tinkering around with hope.
Judaism teaches the hope of the future, as well as the dangers of prediction. It says that when faced with knowledge of the future, we usually lack self-control.
The first "precog," was the serpent, predicting that Eve could be enticed to eat from the tree. But what was the genius in that? God "knew" that it was a frustrating set-up: eat from this tree, but not from that. Adam and Eve were merely acting according to plan, manipulated by the serpent into being the curious, inquisitive humans they were created to be.
The matriarch Sarah, too, had "precognition." She knew Abraham's destiny -- that he would lead a people "as numerous as the stars in the sky." Her problem was using this knowledge to meddle. Sarah planted the idea that her concubine, Hagar, could produce an heir for husband concubine. She didn't trust the future to be revealed on its own.
So too, Rebekah's "knowledge" of her twins' destiny brought trouble. What would have happened had she not encouraged Jacob to pose as Esau? Would Isaac have given his blessing to the "wrong" son?
And where does that leave me? If I knew all, would I stop eating Dove bars for nutrition or doing my yoga? Knowledge could shatter hope.
I believe in hope. I've heard Rosemary Clooney sing "Hey There" which says everything about the hope of love. Clooney died of lung cancer last week at 74, despite years of depression and drug abuse.
"Though he won't throw a crumb to you. You think some day he'll come to you," she sang.
What else is there to know?

Avenue of the Oaks celebrating 160 years
Sept. 29, 2010
Mobile, Ala. – This year marks the 160th anniversary of the Avenue of the Oaks at Spring Hill College. For more than 60 years, the avenue has also been the traditional site for the College's commencement ceremonies, and thousands of graduates have processed under the giant oaks that Roger Stewart planted in 1850.
Stewart, a Scottish cotton merchant, purchased the property adjacent to the College and in 1848 built a Greek revival home, known as "Stewartfield." The Avenue of the Oaks originally was part of an oval racehorse track, which curved around the front of the house at the south end of the avenue.
The College purchased the house and property in 1903 from Stewart's oldest daughter, Annie Stewart Field. Stewartfield is one of Mobile's favorite venues for weddings and special occasions.
The first graduation ceremony on the avenue was held in 1949. Prior to 1930, commencements were held at the old Battle House auditorium in downtown Mobile, and from 1930 to 1949 in Byrne Library on the campus.
Alumni and friends are invited to leave their memories of the avenue, by visiting the Web at www.shc.edu/avenue-anniversary. Some reflections may be included in the spring 2011 issue of the Spring Hill College Magazine.

FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg says the mix of caffeine and alcohol can lead to what she calls "a state of wide-awake drunk." She says the evidence shows that the drinks have led to alcohol poisoning, car accidents and assaults.
Experts think the caffeine could mask a feeling of intoxication, leading to risky behavior.
If the companies keep making and marketing the drinks, which have been popular with college students, the government could seize the products.
The companies have 15 days to respond to the letters, either explaining how they will take the drinks off the market, or defending them as safe.
The maker of one of the drinks, Four Loko, announced Tuesday that it will remove the caffeine. The company's founders say they still believe a mix of alcohol and caffeine is safe, but that they're up against a "politically-charged regulatory environment."

Dying woman names alleged killer
SUISUN CITY, Calif. Authorities say a Northern California woman named her alleged killer as she lay dying.
Police say 30-year-old Lorena Martinez of Fairfield was found bleeding from numerous stab wounds at a Suisun City apartment complex Tuesday night.
Police say she told them a man named Victor Mejia stabbed her during an argument. She was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Police say Mejia fled in Martinez's car and then abandoned it. He remains at large.
State law permits dying declarations by crime victims to be admitted as evidence in some trials.

It is our belief that God's mission in the world is to reconcile all things to the Crucified Lord. Our responsibility is to join in this work.
Gordon College has a long history of service both domestically and abroad. Today that tradition continues through foreign and domestic missions and service learning trips. These trips are sponsored by the Chapel Office and are all student-led/staff-advised and motivated by an evangelical and humanitarian spirit. Each trip has its own mission and each team its own character. These trips have been, and will continue to be, an extremely meaningful and memorable time for those who participate, and represent unique opportunities for individuals to grow in their knowledge of God, the world, self, and others.
Some examples of this year's mission trips:
(Winter Break)
In early January our team will travel to the southern most state of Belize called Punta Gorda, the poorest part of the country. We will partner with the international organization, LOL Ministries, where we will have the opportunity to love and nurture orphans, as well as neglected and disadvantaged children and young adults. We will focus our time on bringing restoration through God's love, allowing children and youth to discover their potential, while equipping and releasing them into their future. We will be serving in a variety of ways, such as: orphan care, children's ministry, VBS, on-site construction, ministry in local villages, and exploring public healthcare facilities for Belize citizens.
For more information please contact a team leader: Jennifer McGrady or Hunter Ward
(Spring Break)
The new Boston mission trip is centered around the exploration and re-evaluation of faithful community living. Through service with a number of homeless ministries and urban development programs such as Starlight Ministries and Eagle's Nest Learning Center, we invite you to consider commitment to another person's holistic well being as an interpersonal mission. We recognize that perspective is paramount in this effort, so we will spend time seeing the city through the eyes of a man who has been homeless for 10 years. This will be a continuous point of discussion as we practice and reflect upon ways to implement love for those right in our midst.
To contact a team leader please email: Margaret Cashman
(Spring Break)
This March 2016, a team will be headed to San Pedro de Macoris, Dominican Republic to serve and learn at Colegio Moriah, a Haitian and Dominican community filled with high spirits and energy. Throughout our time there we will develop wonderful relationships, help with work projects, work in the school, learn about the history and culture in the DR, attend worship services, and grow in Christ as a team. We will also venture out and experience many sides of the beautiful culture that is present in the Dominican Republic.
To contact a team leader email: Michael Gaudio or Jenna Cochran
ECHO Farm
(Spring Break)
Since the early 1980's, Gordon has sent work teams during Spring Break to volunteer on the ECHO farm in North Fort Myers, Florida. ECHO's Mission is to equip people with resources and skills to reduce hunger and improve the lives of the poor. ECHO's Vision is to honor God through sustainable hunger solutions. Be a part of that vision and join our work team this year.

(Winter Break)
This team will spend time over winter break building homes for families in need in Haiti. We will work alongside Partners in Development (PID), an organization that has been working in Haiti for over 20 years. Come join us for some hard work that can make a difference in the lives of homeless families in this beautiful but earthquake and poverty ravaged country.
To contact a team leader email: Farnel Maxime and Nicholas Hammes
(Summer Break)
Our team will spend time with three different organizations in India: Bapatla Children's Home and Bharti Integrated Rural Development Society (BIRDS) in Andhra Predesh, and Visthar in Bangalore.
These organizations work with orphans, girls at risk for temple prostitution, peace and reconciliation studies, and the rights and needs of the rural Dalit people. We will learn about some of the problems and challenges facing India, have the opportunity to learn from some incredible people, and work with children through VBS, teaching English and helping with other needs.
For more information, please email the chapel office.
(Summer Break)
This summer, we will be travelling to Kingston, Jamaica, for two weeks to work with CCCD, the Christian Caribbean Centre for the Deaf. CCCD's goal is to give the deaf community of Jamaica access to the gospel of Jesus Christ, sign language, education, and vocational training. As a result, students are better equipped to live independent lives. Join us as we grow and learn together from our partnership with CCCD in Kingston. Our team will be participating in work projects and after school activities.
For more information, please email the chapel office.
(Summer Break)
Gordon College is excited to partner with ELIC (English Language Institute - China) in their Middle East initiative in Jordan in the summer of 2016. Students will have the opportunity to teach English with those adversely affected by the Syrian conflict.
Jordan could be the place where you find tangible ways to bring restoration, language skills, and new opportunities to people needing to reinvent their lives on the other side of tragedy.

Mexico Outreach is a short-term missions opportunity to serve in Tijuana, Mexico. For almost two decades, Gordon has been building a partnership with La Casa de Esperanza, an orphanage located outside the city. As we return each year, our hope is to be ambassadors of God's love to all those we encounter. Our prayer is to grow in humility and cultural sensibility as we seek to better understand the global body of Christ.
To contact a team leader email: Kelly Turk or Roger Evans
(Spring Break)
In March 2016, Gordon College will begin a new relationship with an organization in New York City called New York City Relief, colloquially known as the Relief Bus. The Relief Bus outreach consists of two former school buses, customized into mobile resource centers to help the poor and homeless. Gordon College students will have the opportunity to serve on the Relief Bus as well as do a night outreach to New York's Midtown and Penn Station. Students will interact with NYCR staff who have dedicated their lives to loving the homeless population in New York, learn and begin to understand the issues that lead to this problem, and discuss best practices for how the body of Christ can engage in being a part of a holistic solution.
To contact a team leader email: Sarah Finnie or Nick Hannigan
(Spring Break)
The Nicaragua missions trip takes a dozen Gordon students to the island of Ometepe to aid a local orphanage while being immersed in the culture of Nicaragua. With a focus on serving and creating relationships, students will spend most of their time with the children in the orphanage and the orphanage staff. While there, students will also connect with the local church community, work on various construction projects, serve people of the church, and explore the country.
To contact a team leader email: Erin Magee or Leah Snavely
(Winter Break)
On the Northern Ireland trip, we wrestle with our understanding of peace, conflict, and what reconciliation can and does look like. We do so by meeting with political and community leaders, and by partnering with an organization called 174 Trust, which works towards social peace in the historically divided community of Belfast.
Interested in serving, participating in dialogue, learning about conflict within a culture, and experiencing the beauty that Northern Ireland holds? Click through for more info, or contact us!

We are excited to continue the partnership between Gordon's Missions program and the city of Portland, Maine. Our team will partner with the Root Cellar, an organization that is committed to community development, and will explore different racial and socio-economic tensions that exist in our own backyard. As we assist the Root Cellar with their programs, such as after school tutoring and food drives, we will attempt to discover how to serve as a local extension of the Kingdom while learning more about, and from, Portland's vast immigrant population, whose culture is so different from our own. On this trip we hope to foster a generative relationship with the Root Cellar that will continue for years to come.
To contact the team leader email: Alissa Frederico
(Spring Break)
We're excited to extend Gordon's mission program to Reading, a small city in southeastern PA with a large immigrant population. In Reading we hope to show Christ's love by supporting organizations and projects that are already accomplishing great things in the city, as well as by learning about the city and the people who live there. This trip will focus on serving these organizations and fostering a relationship between them and Gordon.
For more information contact one of the trip leaders: Joel Cox or Elizabeth Norcini
(Winter Break)
What do you know about immigration reform?! This January our team will dive into the issues surrounding US immigration in San Diego by partnering and spending time with a local Mexican-American church, living with one another in community, and asking what it truly means to "love your neighbor" -- while living only 12 miles from the US-Mexico border.
Are you interested? Contact the team leader: Lourdes Rojo
(Summer Break)
In May and June our team will be working with the community of Bulembu, Swaziland, a small country located within South Africa. Swaziland has one of the highest AIDs prevalence rates in the world, a negative population growth, and a life expectancy of only 32. In 2006, a team of entrepreneurs and social developers purchased the abandoned town with a clear vision – restore Bulembu to a vibrant, self sustaining community by the year 2020. We will be helping them fulfill this vision, serving in a variety of ways, such as: orphan care, teaching in schools, landscape and building projects, and economic development.
For more information please email the chapel office.

Chestnut Mountain Ranch is a Christ-centered safe haven for boys and families in crisis, located six miles south of Morgantown, West Virginia. The ranch exists to be a place for family restoration, where boys can enjoy school again, and all can experience positive family values.
This will be the first year that Gordon has the opportunity to come alongside Chestnut Mountain Ranch, and the team will jump in to assist in the construction of a new school. Besides the work projects, students will have the opportunity to model Christ-centered values, build meaningful relationships, and enjoy God's beautiful creation. We're excited to begin this new partnership!

We used in the main the Seven Eagles pool, no over crowding and no problems finding a sunbed. We had a drive around the Resort its very well maintained. Your Villa is very spacious and nicely furnished and perfectly located. Parking was a cinch. On arrival it was very clean and no issues whatsoever. Views from the balcony are excellent and we spent many mornings watching the golfers tee off. The kids loved the free WiFi so were buried in their I Pads in the mornings and evenings. If its available next year we would like the opportunity to use it again. Thank you!

#50: 7th Heaven! We stayed for 15 nights, the Resort location is great being just 5mins from Disney. The Town Villa was as described and is of a high standard with a great location and just 100yds from the Seven Eagles Pool Complex & activities area. Property is fully air con and is spacious, all bedrooms are huge with there own bathrooms. Property overlooks the 10th Tee of one of three Resort Golf Courses. We enjoyed having our drinks while watching players tee off. The Seven eagles pool is heated with two hot tubs and most days is open late which is great after a hard day at the theme parks. One night they showed American football on a giant screen which was great fun. Accommodation was "spick & Span" on arrival very well maintained and presented, with two kids we booked a mid stay clean and change of laundry. This was carried out very efficiently, a welcome pack can be arranged if one has a late arrival. Once our booking was confirmed Roy the owner sent us a wealth of information and even phoned us after we arrived to check all was OK! The Resort caters for all ages with "fine & casual" dinning in addition to a superb rooftop pool & restaurant at "The Grande" with amazing views.. We highly recommend this property for anybody looking for an Orlando holiday in a secure gated Resort with every facility you require pretty much on your door step.

Two 12-year-old Wisconsin girls are accused of luring a middle school classmate into the woods in a Milwaukee suburb and stabbing her 19 times in an attack inspired by a horror website.
The victim, also 12, was stabbed in the legs, arms and torso in Saturday's attack but survived despite having major organs injured, police said. She managed to crawl out of the woods and was found by a bicyclist, authorities said.
She underwent surgery and was reported to be stable.
Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier were charged as adults with attempted first-degree intentional homicide in a criminal complaint filed Monday in Waukesha County Circuit Court.
A 5-inch knife was found in a backpack of one of the girls after they were taken into custody on the day of the attack, authorities said.
According to the criminal complaint, Weier was fascinated by a character on a website about horror and nightmares and was inspired to kill someone, convincing Geyser to take part in the crime, the complaint said.
Police allege the girls planned the attack for several months.
After a sleep-over on Friday night, all three girls went to play on Saturday in a park in Waukesha, 20 miles west of Milwaukee. One girl held the victim down and stabbed her 19 times, according to the complaint and police.
An account of events leading up to the stabbing was laid out in a statement released Monday by Waukesha Police Chief Russell Jack.
"Both suspects had a fascination in a fictitious character that often posted to a website that is a collection of small stories about death and horror," Jack said.
According to the criminal complaint, one of the girls told police they were trying to prove that the Slender Man, a fictitious Internet character, was real, according to local media reports. The idea allegedly was to kill as the Slender Man to prove his existence.
As online fantasy shifted into the real world and Weier heard her victim's screams, she wavered, the complaint said.
"The bad part of me wanted her to die," Weier told the detective, according to the complaint. "The good part of me wanted her to live."
Morgan Geyser, the accused accomplice, was not so conflicted: "It was weird that I didn't feel remorse," she told a detective, the complaint said. She later added that it was "probably wrong."
The Slender Man is a monster meme created in 2009 by a user of the website Something Awful, according to the website whatculture.com. Through years of posts and back stories, the character has become a modern-day myth about a faceless man.
Geyser said Slenderman would watch her and could read her mind. He can teleport, emits radiation that makes you sick and doesn't use computers because they don't work when he's around, she told a detective, according to the complaint.
The character appears in many stories published in online forums, including Creepypasta.com, a place where amateur writers upload so-called fan-fiction, particularly stories about paranormal characters.
Jack called the attack a "wake-up call to parents."
"Unmonitored and unrestricted access to the Internet by children is a growing and alarming problem," he said. "Parents are strongly encouraged to restrict and monitor their children's Internet usage."
"Incredibly and thankfully, the victim survived this brutal assault," Jack told a news conference.
Anthony Cotton, an attorney who is representing one of the girls, expressed sympathy for the victim and her family.
"We're sorry to hear what has happened and our hearts go out to the family," Cotton said.
Bond was set at $500,000 for each of the girls, according to court records.
Los Angeles Times and Reuters contributed to this report.

"Forced fun" would suggest that GW2 is very linear when in-fact you have a lot of options depending on what you want to do. If the only way to experience the game was by talking to people then that would be forced. It's like how Guild Wars 2 has a crafting system. There is incentive to craft stuff, but players are not forced to craft stuff. In addition to satisfying that player's desire to craft, the player is rewarded with whatever he made along with exp. Likewise there should be added incentive for socializing which isn't necessary to play the game but enriches the experience.

A partnership between HACC, Central Pennsylvania's community college, and the Gettysburg Area School District opens doors for training opportunities. In February, HACC will begin offering emergency medical technician classes at Adams County Tech Prep on the Gettysburg Area High School campus. In March, English as a second language classes will be added. "In 2010 when the Gettysburg Area School District school board began discussions on the construction of a dedicated facility for the Adams County Tech Prep programs, it was their vision that the facility would become a center for career and technical training programs available not only for current high school students, but also post-secondary students," said Dr. Larry Redding, district superintendent.

In this Tuesday, Jan. 29, 2013 photo, longtime soccer supporter of Beitar Jerusalem F.C., Abigail Sharabi poses for a portrait inside her home in the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Pisgat Zeev. The offices of the Beitar Jerusalem soccer team were set on fire early Friday in an apparent arson attack, police said, a day after four of the club's fans were charged with anti-Muslim chanting at a recent game. Tensions have been bubbling ever since the team announced last month it would sign on two Muslim Chechen players — Zaur Sadayev and Gabriel Kadiev — in a break from the team's unofficial tradition of not signing Arabs or Muslims.

A bizarre mountain retreat built on top of a 26-floor Beijing residential building faces demolition after complaints by residents.
The rooftop structure is covered by fake rocks, trees and bushes, and can be clearly seen from one of Beijing's busiest commuter roads in one of the city's more upmarket areas.
Locals say the unusual high-rise retreat has been slowly taking over the rooftop for years -- construction is said to have started in 2007 -- but is only now receiving attention after images of the unlikely extension went viral on social media.
The owner of the rocky outcrop has been identified as Professor Zhang Biqing, a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine who owns a national chain of acupuncture clinics, and is a former member of a district People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), according to the South China Morning Post.
Some residents claim the retreat has caused cracks in their walls, which leak when it rains.
Zhang is reported to have said he would demolish the villa if requested.

Economic success and the global economy
Dan Kadlec believes success in a global economy is possible, with the right education. (Thinkstock)
Although the U.S has been performing and embracing capitalism and free markets for two centuries, it is not too far ahead of developing economies concerning the personal finances of citizens, but according to Time's Dan Kadlec you can change that with education.
"Nations that get this right the quickest stand to gain an economic advantage through, among other things, better household debt management and long-term savings," Kadlec wrote. "That's worth remembering amid the clamor of critics who view personal finance as largely unlearnable and financial education as a waste of time, and prefer the Big Brother approach of stiffer regulation. I'll take education and personal choice any time."

About the Community Development Block Grant - Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) Program
The federal government uses a program called Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) to provide communities with resources that address a wide range of needs. These funds are flexible and help cities, counties and states recover from disasters particularly in low income communities. Some of the federal aid for areas affected by the 2011 Flood will come through this program in the form of Community Development Block Grant- Disaster Recovery funding. There will be several rounds of CDBG-DR funding. Our initial award is for $67.6 million with a future promise of $35 million as a second allocation. Please review the documents and information on this site to see how we plan to use this money.

According to the reports, women at the White House make 88 cents for every dollar men make.
The White House explanation? Women get equal pay when they are in the same job as the men but there are more men in more high paying jobs / more important jobs and hence the money disparity.
I think that is almost worse! It says that women don't get equally the good jobs at the White House! Why do men get more good jobs?
Mr. President, how come?
