NEW DELHI: It's all in the family! It's not just employees alone who are being wooed by companies. Now, the families of employees are also in the limelight. With high attrition rates being the bane of every industry, employers are finding innovative ways to retain manpower.
And, what better a way to do that than strike an emotional bond with the family members of employees? Be it festival celebrations, workshops or even an exclusive family day, involvement seems to be the buzzword in the companies' work culture lexicon.

This weekend probably would have seemed great on paper if you were looking at it in the beginning of the season. It's crunch time and the New York Yankees play the Boston Red Sox while the New York Mets square off against the Philadelphia Phillies. It's playoff race gold while the summer winds down into September, right? While the Red Sox are fighting for a spot as the Wild Card this year, the Mets are fighting for a little self-respect as they begin to play the part of the National League spoilers.
There's little doubt left that the Mets are going to miss the playoffs. They are more than ten games behind Philadelphia in the divisional race and more than ten behind in the wildcard race (which is being led by the Colorado Rockies with the Atlanta Braves and Florida Marlins less than five games behind each). It's not a surprise with all the injuries and clubhouse turmoil (what's going on with Gary Sheffield's contract extension anyway).
While Jose Reyes, Carlos Beltran, and Carlos Delgado have been out for an exasperating long amount of time, it seemed inevitable that one of the other big stars, David Wright, would be out as well (that seems to be the Mets luck anyway). Wouldn't you know it? David Wright was beaned in the head by a 94 mile an hour fastball by Matt Cain of the wildcard hopeful San Francisco Giants and left the game with a concussion. There's no guarantee that the All-Star will play again this season (although there is hope) as he sits on the 15-day DL.
So, the Mets are without their starting first baseman, shortstop, third baseman, and centerfielder. They're also playing without their version of the Sandman, former closer Billy Wagner. Wagner had been sitting on the disabled list since last season, but made his first appearance of 2009 against the Braves and struck out two in one inning. He looked sharp, strong, and quite promising as a relief pitcher, but he'll be gone by the end of the season.
The Red Sox have claimed Wagner off waivers and will likely take him off the Mets' hands. I guess it's unnecessary to have three closers on a single team's bullpen (Wagner, J.J. Putz, and Francisco Rodriguez) so though Wagner has been one of the best closers in the majors during his three year stint with the Mets, they won't need him moving forward. On the other hand, the Mets still need a lot (especially now knowing owner Fred Wilpon will "absolutely" bring General Manager Omar Minaya back next season).
The first thing they need is some guts. They may be just a step above terrible (see the Washington Nationals), but they have the ability to screw up some hopeful teams' plans this season. They recently played the Giants, where they took two of the four games in the series (on that note, the Giants were two games behind the Rockies in the wild-card race as of Saturday).
Next, the Mets played the playoff hopeful Braves who shared two strange games in a row with the Mets in their series win. In the first game of the series the Mets were down 4-0 in the fourth inning until they broke through with a franchise record-breaking ten hits, and nine runs in the inning, which won the game for them. In the second game of the series the Braves took over the second inning with eight runs in the 18-hit, 15-2 win. The Mets may have had a heck of an inning, but it was a poorly played series. They couldn't spoil the Braves' season, but they have some opportunities in the next month to stir up the playoff race.
The National League will probably be represented in the playoffs by the Phillies in the East, the St. Louis Cardinals in the Central Division, and Los Angeles Dodgers in the West. In order, the five teams with a solid shot at the last spot in the playoffs are the Rockies, the Giants, the Marlins, the Braves, and the Chicago Cubs. The Mets will finish this series against the already playoff bound Philadelphia Phillies to play the Marlins in three more series, the Cubs in two, the Rockies, the Phillies one last time, the Braves in two more series and the Nationals twice.
All of these teams except the Nationals have a strong chance of making the playoffs, and the Mets are capable of ruining any one of their seasons. This isn't exactly the end-goal of a season you're looking for as a Mets fan, but at least it's a reason to watch the games. And hey, with roughly 30 games left in the season there is a very slim chance that the Mets make it in. Just don't hold your breath.
On the American league side of things it's the Red Sox and their fans whose collective breath will be held through the rest of August and September. The Red Sox were swept by the Yankees a week and a half ago, and were pounded by the Yanks in the first game of this latest series in their 20-11 loss. They rebounded in the next game with a 14-1 beat down of A.J. Burnett, but still sit more than five games behind the league leading Yankees.

I don't consider myself a fashionista by any stretch of the word. I am most comfortable in jeans. For the last few weeks I've been scrolling through the what I wore Wednesday posts that link up with The Pleated Poppy and felt a little hint of inspiration. A little desire to participate myself.
What I first noticed about the bloggers that link up is that they are all super cute and stylish. Maybe that will be me one day, for now the bulk of the clothing allowance goes to The Boy. He seems to grow like a well fed weed. Despite feeling a bit intimidated by the great photographs – they all must have their own photographers – I decided to photograph what I wore wednesday {that's today!} and share it with y'all.
Here goes nothing. Please don't make fun.

Watch Alan Jackson's tribute to George Jones
There have been dozens of tributes to George Jones since his passing two weeks ago, but none is as heartbreaking and poignant as Alan Jackson's performance of "He Stopped Loving Her Today" during the country legend's funeral at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville last Friday.
The Opry has now made the video of the performance available online as a lasting testament to the impact Jones had on the country music community. From the stark emotion in Jackson's voice and on his face, it is clear that Jones was more than the accolades to his peers. He was an intricate piece of the Nashville family. »Read Full Blog Post
Kid Cudi shoots for the moon, but is slow to lift off
Kid Cudi was supposed to perform at the Rave's Eagles Ballroom Wednesday. Instead, the rapper's show was at U.S. Cellular Arena, because apparently, his stage show's production was so large it couldn't fit in the Rave's largest room.
We'd show you what it looked like — except, strangely, Cudi is prohibiting press photography on his current tour. But essentially, he gave his Milwaukee audience of a few thousand the moon. »Read Full Article(1)

''Walk on Water'' (ללכת על המים, ''Lalekhet Al [=HaMayim=]'') is a 2004 [[IsraeliMedia Israeli]] film. It is directed by New York-born Israeli director Eytan Fox and stars Lior Ashkenazi, Knut Berger, and Caroline Peters. The screenplay was written by Gal Uchovsky. Most of the dialogue takes place in English, although there is much in Hebrew and German.
Eyal is a UsefulNotes/{{Mossad}} hitman who targets enemies of Israel. His wife has recently committed suicide, and his chief Menachem decides that he needs to take on a less challenging assignment: to find Alfred Himmelman, an aging Nazi war criminal, and get him "before God does". In order to track down the old man, Eyal poses as a tour guide and befriends Himmelman's adult grandchildren, Axel and Pia.
!!Trope on Water:
* AllGaysArePromiscuous: Discussed in the scene in the German gay bar.
%%* TheAce: Eyal.
* TheAtoner: Eyal, by the end of the film.
%%* AntiHero: Eyal, type III.
* ArabIsraeliConflict: Takes place during the height of the Second Intifada in Israel, when suicide bombings were an almost daily occurrence.
* ArgentinaIsNaziland: Himmelman took refuge in Argentina after the war.
* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler: Eyal and Pia are shown to be happily married with a child two years after the events of the film.]]
* BadassIsraeli: Eyal is a realistic version of the trope.
%%* BatmanColdOpen
* BewareTheNiceOnes: [[spoiler: It is ultimately Axel who carries out the killing of his grandfather on his own initiative, after Eyal spares the aged, sickly man's life]].
* BlackSpeech: In Eyal's family of German Holocaust survivors, German became this.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: Eyal becomes one following CharacterDevelopment.
%%* CombatPragmatist: Eyal.
%%* CulturalRebel: The Himmelman siblings.
%%* CunningLinguist: Eyal.
%%* DaChief: Menachem.
* DistantFinale: Two years later, [[spoiler: [[ShiksaGoddess Eyal and Pia are married]] [[BabiesEverAfter with a child]] named Tom]].
%%* DrivenToSuicide: Iris (Eyal's wife).
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Before her fight with their parents, Pia was clearly the responsible one to Axel's foolish, at least in their parents eyes. After Pia fights with her parents, finds herself an Israeli boyfriend and goes to live in a Kibbutz in Israel - she is demoted.
* FollowInMyFootsteps: Axel's father wants his son to join the FamilyBusiness, but Axel is happier working as an educator, and it doesn't help that his father has been unaccepting of his son's sexuality.
* GayBarReveal: While it isn't likely that Eyal would have stuck around in any dance bar, when he realizes that he is in a gay bar he seems downright startled and pretty muhc runs away. And that's a man who can kill with his bare hands.
* GayAesop: Not the actual work, but more in-universe, showing the process that Eyal goes through learning to accept homosexuls.
* HeCleansUpNicely: Seeing Axel in a suit [[HoYay has this effect on Eyal]]. Earlier in the film he reacts this way to Pia dressing up, as well.
%%* HeartbrokenBadass: Eyal.
* HidingBehindTheLanguageBarrier: Eyal uses Hebrew to do this several times around Axel, and relates an anecdote about his old schoolmates who, on a student exchange to Germany, played a dark "game" by approaching random passers-by who were old enough to have been adults during WorldWarII, and asking them in Hebrew, "What were you doing when my family was being burnt?".
* HiddenDepths: Eyal, who seems to be almost unfeeling, but revealed to be a BruiserWithASoftCenter with a FruedianExcuse.
** Axel seems to be just a WideEyedIdealist, but he has surprising amounts of rage in him. [[spoiler: which eventually leads him to kill his own grandfather.]]
* IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim: What Iris probably thought of Eyal's profession before she committed suicide.
* InnocentBystander: The drag queens in the UsefulNotes/{{Berlin}} underground.
* ManlyTears: [[spoiler: Even though he can't cry, Eyal breaks down in remorse in Axel's arms at the end]].
* MatzoFever: Pia has a thing for tough, Israeli men.
%%* NaziGrandpa: Alfred Himmelman.
* NaziHunter: Eyal is initially reluctant and prefers to let the old nazi die but Menachem insists on punishing him before God does.
%%* NoSenseOfHumor: Eyal.
* PoisonedWeapons: Eyal can kill a man in a matter of seconds with his syringe.
* RuleOfSymbolism: Eyal's inability to cry [[spoiler: which mysteriously goes away when he can't kill an old man.]]
* SaveTheVillain: [[spoiler: Eyal eventually finds himself unable to kill Alfred Himmelman]]. However, [[spoiler: Axel shows up and turns off his grandfather's oxygen tank]].
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Axel and Eyal, respectively. The contrast is portrayed as a cultural difference, in particular during the scene at the Dead Sea.
--> '''Axel:''' "Is it true Israeli men don't like to talk about their feelings?"
--> '''Eyal:''' "I don't know. [[SelfDemonstratingArticle To be honest, I don't like to talk about it]]."
%%* StepfordSmiler: The mother of Axel and Pia.
%%* StraightGay: Axel Himmelman.
* SwitchToEnglish: Pia speaks some Hebrew, but her brother doesn't speak a word of it, and despite the fact that Eyal speaks perfect German, he hides this in order to spy on the Himmelmans and so for most of the film, the trio switch to English to communicate.
* TitleDrop: When Eyal and Axel arrive at the Sea of Galilea, Axel tries to walk on a partially immersed deadwood branch. He trips in the water.
-->'''Eyal:''' Hey Jesus, they lied to you! It's impossible to walk on water!
* TwoferTokenMinority: Two ethnic minority LGBTQ persons appear in the film - first Rafik, a gay Palestinian who hooks up with Axel at a bar, and later a black drag queen in Berlin.
* UnableToCry: Eyal, due to medical reasons. He has to apply eye drops regularly.
* WideEyedIdealist: Axel spends much of the film as the idealist to Eyal's [[TheCynic cynic]], but exposure to the harsh realities of life in conflict-ridden Israel does have an effect on him, and the knowledge of his family's DarkSecret and the presence of his grandfather in his house drive him to [[spoiler: kill the old man]].
* WhereEverybodyKnowsYourFlame: The movies features two gay bars - one in Tel Aviv and one in Berlin.

The Martian Chronicles
by Ray Bradbury
The Martian Chronicles Change Quotes
How we cite our quotes: ("Story Name," Paragraph)
Quote #1
"Biological metamorphosis through psychological imbalance!" ("The Earth Men," 210)
This is Mr. Xxx being astounded about the "psychotic genius" of the Earth Men, who he thinks are actually the "psychotic" projection of crazy Martians. What's funny is that Mr. Xxx finds it easier to imagine that a crazy Martian could actually change his shape—"biological metamorphosis"—than accept that Mars is actually being invaded by an alien (to him) race.
Quote #2
But one day Earth will be as Mars is today. This will sober us. It's an object lesson in civilizations. ("—And the Moon Be Still as Bright," 81)
Captain Wilder thinks Earth and Mars are following the same path—that Earth will one day be as dry and (potentially) lifeless as Mars. This was actually what lots of people used to think: that Mars was older than Earth but started out the same, so looking at Mars was like looking at the future of Earth. Hooray: something to look forward to.
Quote #3
In a moment the town doors would flip wide, people would run out through the new miracle of oxygen, sniffing, gusting in lungfuls of it, cheeks pinking with it, noses frozen with it, lungs revivified, hearts leaping, and worn bodies lifted into a dance. ("The Green Morning," 40)
This scene from "The Green Morning" parallels a scene in "Rocket Summer": when the rockets made the weather warmer, people rushed out to play, just like they're about to now. What weird is that, in "Rocket Summer," technology changes the world; in "The Green Morning," nature changes the world.

Daily Mail: Roy Hodgson will turn to England's kids today by naming Fabian Delph, Calum Chambers, Danny Rose and John Stones in his first squad since the calamitous World Cup campaign in Brazil. England's head coach is preparing for next week's friendly at Wembley against Norway before the national team travel to Basle for the Euro 2016 qualifier against Switzerland.
Daily Express: Fabian Delph and Danny Rose will be the surprise inclusions in Roy Hodgson's England squad, when Wayne Rooney will be confirmed as the team's new captain. Defender Calum Chambers, only 19, will also be selected for Wednesday's friendly against Norway and the Euro 2016 qualifier in Switzerland after playing just four competitive games for Arsenal since his £16m move from Southampton. There will also be a call-up for Everton defender John Stones as Hodgson injects young blood following the disappointment of the World Cup in Brazil.
BBC Sport: Arsenal's Calum Chambers is expected to be one of three uncapped players included in England's first squad since the World Cup. The defender, a £16m summer buy from Southampton, is likely to be called up alongside Tottenham's Danny Rose and Aston Villa midfielder Fabian Delph. Wayne Rooney is favourite to be named as England's new captain when the squad is announced on Thursday. Daily Star: Fabian Delph and Danny Rose will be named in Roy Hodgson's England squad today. And they will be joined by Arsenal newboy Calum Chambers for Wednesday's friendly at home to Norway and the opening Euro 2016 qualifier in Switzerland five days later. Boss Hodgson will also confirm Man Utd star Wayne Rooney as his new skipper following the international retirements of Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard.
Independent: The meteoric rise of Arsenal's teenage defender Calum Chambers will continue today when he is named in Roy Hodgson's England squad for the friendly against Norway on Wednesday and the Euro 2016 qualifier against Switzerland five days later. As well as Chambers, Fabian Delph, Danny Rose and John Stones will be called up for the squad. Delph, 24, has represented England U21s but has never been part of a senior squad before and the Aston Villa player's inclusion is a direct consequence of a deficit of central midfielders.
Birmingham Mail: Villa were knocked out of the Capital One Cup at the first hurdle after a late smash-and-grab goal from League One Leyton Orient. Substitute Romain Vincelot scored the winning goal in the 87th minute completely against the run of play to end the early-season feel-good factor at Villa Park. Before last night Villa had not conceded a single goal and looked to be heading towards another shutout until Vincelot ruined the night.
Daily Telegraph: Paul Lambert admitted his Aston Villa side were made to pay for not taking their chances after they were knocked out of the Capital One Cup by Leyton Orient, who struck three minutes from time through Romain Vincelot. Darren Bent, starting a game for Villa for the first time since the final day of the 2012-13 season, was chief culprit as he missed in each half with only the goalkeeper to beat.
The Sun: Romain Vincelot sank the Villans with a stunning winner as Villa fans turned on manager Paul Lambert. Os boss Russell Slade sent on the French midfielder with seven minutes to go. It was a move meant to protect combative midfielder Marvin Bartley from picking up a second yellow card. But it was the hosts who were given their marching orders four minutes later as Vincelot, 28, headed a dramatic winner past Shay Given to send the Londoners into the third round for the first time in four years - where they host League One rivals Sheffield United.
IPaper: Aston Villa's good start to the season came to a halt in spectacular fashion last night as they were knocked out of the Capital One Cup 1-0 at home to League One Leyton Orient. It was a bad night for Villa striker Darren Bent, who missed two gilt-edged chances before Romain Vincelot headed home Orient's winner with three minutes to go.
Daily Star: Romain Vincelot dumped Aston Villa out of the Capital One Cup with a stunning header to seal victory for the League One side Leyton Orient. Sub Vincelot got on the end of Bradley Pritchard's cross to leave Villa boss Paul Lambert shaking his head. For Lambert, cup competitions have been a recurring nightmare at Villa Park and there was no change last night.
Birmingham Mail: Paul Lambert was left reeling after Villa's shock defeat to Leyton Orient. The boss thought his side created "enough chances to win two games" as Darren Bent missed two gilt-edged chances and Nathan Baker fired three close-range headers off target. The loss left Lambert dejected and frustrated as his side were once again outdone by lower-league opposition.
Daily Mirror: Russell Slade saluted his Orient fighters after the League One shock troops dumped out Villa thanks to Romain Vincelot's late winner. Slade planned to give Marvin Bartley a full match to build his fitness but decided to throw on French midfielder Vincelot inside the last 10 minutes. And Vincelot met Dean Cox's cross to head in and send Orient wild.
Best of the Rest
BBC Sport: Uefa president Michel Platini will not take on Sepp Blatter for the leadership of football's governing body Fifa. The 59-year-old Frenchman had considered running as a candidate in next year's presidential election.
Sky Sports: AC Milan have held talks with Chelsea over the transfer of Fernando Torres, according to Sky sources. The Serie A club's vice-president Adriano Galliani hinted at a move for Torres this week, and the clubs have now begun discussions over a potential deal.
BBC Sport: Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud will be out until the end of December after having surgery on a broken leg. The club received the results of a second scan on Wednesday, which confirmed the France international had broken his left tibia.

We still love a Traditional Easter in Ireland with family, food and faith being priorities during the Holy Week. It is often the first opportunity for many families to reunite since Christmas with traditional food like lamb, salmon, chicken and eggs still very popular. This week's meal plan will start on Good Friday and take you through to Tuesday, with a couple of celebratory meals in the middle. Now, where to fit the Cadbury's Easter Egg in?
Friday - Crispy Pan Fried Trout with Warm Potato Salad and Steamed Green Beans
For the traditionalists amongst you, Good Friday means no meat. In fact, I often try a no meat meal every Friday - if only to focus me on the other options out there. Here is a very tasty fish choice. I get my fishmonger to fillet the trout, as it is much quicker to cook and I find children prefer fish this way (it's less intimidating than a whole fish). I would always serve this with traditional potatoes with a twist (it also means I don't need to make a sauce) and a packet of frozen green beans to ensure everyone is getting their requisite vitamins.
Saturday - Citrus Chicken & Broccoli Stir Fry
Stir fries are not exactly a traditional Irish way of cooking, but it has become a popular way of cooking in Ireland especially for families who are concerned about getting their full compliment of nutrients. This is a yummy option, but make sure to purchase good quality, plump chicken fillets.
Sunday - Braised Lamb Shanks with Crushed Herb Potatoes with Baked Leeks
Is there anything that spells Easter Sunday more than lamb? This is one of my favourite dishes ever. The beauty of this dish is that once prepared you can almost leave it to braise alone for hours while you enjoy strolls with the family and the quintessential Easter board games. It even comes with its own gravy. And what's more, the accompanying sides are all baked beside the lamb in the oven.
Dessert - Hot Cross Bun and Butter Pudding
I don't usually include a dessert, but couldn't help myself this week. This is a treat for Easter Sunday.
Monday - Cheese Omelette
After the indulgence of Sunday, this is a great store cupboard option. And who doesn't enjoy an omelette? This is an opportunity to get teens to make their own. Add whatever ingredients you may have in the store cupboard e.g. corn, onions, tomatoes and even smoked salmon.
Tuesday - Smoked Salmon and Prawn Pasta with Steamed Spinach
In Ireland smoked salmon is very popular, with many smoke houses dotted around the country. This meal is a delicious, easy peasy because very little preparation is needed and it doesn't compromise on goodness. The spinach wilts in seconds and adds colour as well as extra nutrients. I'll probably serve it with a big bowl of salad (which I always have in the fridge at this time) and a lemon dressing.
Grocery List:
4 Hot Cross Buns
5 fl oz(150 mls) Cream (or milk)
2 cups (500 mls) Red wine
3 Chicken fillets
⅔ cup (100 g) Prawns
⅔ cup (100 g) Smoked Salmon
4 Trout
4 Lamb Shank
1 Fresh Lime
½ cup (50 g) Walnuts
1 Vanilla Pod (or 1 tsp vanilla essence)
½ tsp Nutmeg (Grated)
200 g (1 pack) Spinach
300 g (1 pack) Green Beans
12 Baby Potatoes

I'm using it to run CentOS5 VMs. The WebUI is a little slower then the old

This book by Bradford Gray will be a landmark for the clinical researchers in academic medicine. He has documented objectively the problem in communication and the discrepancies between standards and practice in the conducting of clinical research. The book comes across as a scientific evaluation, done by an individual sympathetic to medicine and clinical investigation who finds glaring defects in the mechanisms now utilized for protecting the individual and his rights. The paternalism of the medical profession and conflict between ethics and the career interests of the investigators in the academic system are highlighted by the findings of the study.
There is no alternative but to admit we have done a poor job in actual performance despite meeting proper paper requirements. The author makes some definite recommendations for improving communication between investigator and subject and the monitoring, by the Clinical Research Committee, of the experimental process and the individual's rights.

Could the Prop. 8 Case Get to the High Court Sooner Than Later?
Part of the Proposition 8 case is now in the hands of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, namely in the hands of judges Michael Daly Hawkins, Sidney Thomas and Edward Leavy.
Those were the three judges picked to review Judge Vaughn Walker's decision to deny the defendant-intervenors' request for a stay of the decision pending appeal. Last week, Judge Walker gave the defendants and the judges until this Wednesday, Aug. 18, to decide the appeal. At that point, the stay will be lifted and gay marriage in California can resume. Click here for all previous LB coverage of the Prop. 8 issue.
At the NYT on Monday, reporter Jesse McKinley previews the prospect of the stay issue reaching the U.S. Supreme Court fairly soon.
Writes McKinley:
Some legal experts are skeptical of whether the Ninth Circuit panel — made up of two Democratic appointees and a moderate Republican — will intervene. And so it is that proponents may find themselves heading to the Supreme Court to try to obtain an emergency stay.
It is at that level that proponents, who are on a legal losing streak, may find some relief, experts say.
If the Prop. 8 proponents did go to the Supreme Court, the justices, of course, would not be ruling on the facts or findings in the case, but on whether there was a potential harm being caused by Judge Walker's lifting of the stay.
But if the stay issue goes up to the U.S. Supreme Court, the proponents may have another hurdle — the standing issue we wrote about on Friday.
UC Irvine's Erwin Chemerinsky told McKinley that the conservatives on the current Supreme Court — considered to be in the majority — "have always been the most restrictive about standing." Continued Chemrinsky: "The irony here is that a doctrine that the conservatives have developed over decades restricting standing in federal cases could now be used to end the debate over Prop 8."

Loretta Lynn concert at Potawatomi
Don't miss two nights of legendary country—by country legend, Loretta Lynn, at The Northern Lights Theater inside Potawatomi Bingo Casino in downtown Milwaukee "To make it in this business, you either have to be first, great or different," says living legend Loretta Lynn. "And I was the first ever to go to Nashville, singin' it like the women lived it." In addition to being first, she was also great and different. Loretta's instantly recognizable delivery is one of the greatest voices in country music history. As for being different, no songwriter has a more distinctive body of work. In songs such as "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin'" and "Your Squaw Is on the War Path," she refused to be any man's doormat. She challenged female rivals in "You Ain't Woman Enough" and "Fist City." She showed tremendous blue-collar pride in "Coal Miner's Daughter" and "You're Lookin' at Country." She is unafraid of controversy, whether the topic is sex ("Wings Upon Your Horns"), divorce ("Rated X"), alcohol ("Wouldn't It Be Great"), war ("Dear Uncle Sam") or sexual liberation ("The Pill"). Some of which were songs banned by radio stations. Like the lady herself, Loretta Lynn's songs shoot from the hip. She may have won a Grammy® Lifetime Achievement Award in 2010, but Loretta Lynn's life is still a work in progress. She's still out there on the road, still writing songs and still recording them as only she can. "I ain't a star. A star is something up in the night sky," says Loretta Lynn. "People say to me, 'You're a legend.' I'm not a legend. I'm just a woman." $65/$60/$55

Climatically it is ideal for a residential educational institution. Winter is a bit harsh but otherwise the weather is pleasant and mild. This heavenly piece of land was initially chosen by Pakistan Railways in 1956 to establish a Model School which was named as "Pakistan Railways Public School, Abbottabad". The then Central Minister for Pakistan Railways Khan Sardar Bahadur Khan was the founder of the School, and Mr. M.A. Rehman was the pioneer Principal.

Portman, Brown, and Ohio Representatives Urge the Administration to Offer Safe Prescription Drug Disposal Options
8/1/2014, 9:02 p.m.
Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senators Rob Portman (R-Ohio) and Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) along with Reps. Joyce Beatty (D-OH-03), Steve Chabot (R-OH-01), Marcia Fudge (D-OH-11), Bob Gibbs (R-OH-07), Bill Johnson (R-OH-06), Jim Jordan (R-OH-04), Dave Joyce (R-OH-14), Marcy Kaptur (D-OH-09), Bob Latta (R-OH-05), Jim Renacci (R-OH-16), Tim Ryan (D-OH-13), Steve Stivers (R-OH-15), Pat Tiberi (R-OH-12), Mike Turner (R-OH-10), and Brad Wenstrup (R-OH-02) urged the Administration to address the misuse and abuse of unused prescription drugs by ensuring that all Americans have a safe and convenient method for disposing of unwanted, unused, or expired prescription drugs. The lawmakers expressed concern that the implementing guidance for the Drug Disposal Act has been stalled at the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and urged the Administration to issue the rule.
"…As you may know, prescription drug abuse is the fastest growing drug problem in the United States and is affecting all age groups, including middle and high school students," the lawmakers wrote. "In 2012 alone, 1,914 Ohioans died, and studies show that 70% of abused medications are obtained from families or friends. Therefore, it is imperative that prescription drugs be kept out of the home setting when plausible. Proper disposal methods must be implemented so that we may curb the growing prescription drug abuse problem in the United States."
Full text of the letter can be found below and here.
July 31, 2014
Mr. Shaun Donovan
Office of Management and Budget
725 17th Street, NW
Washington, DC 20503
Dear Director Donovan:
In order to ensure that all Americans have a safe and convenient method for disposing of unwanted, unused, or expired prescription drugs, we urge you to complete expeditiously your review of the proposed Disposal of Controlled Substances rule. This rule was transmitted by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) on February 25, 2014, and the automatic 90-day review period has expired. We are troubled that the DEA has yet to issue final regulations that could help address the misuse and abuse of unused prescription drugs and are concerned about the extended duration of this rulemaking.
The Secure and Responsible Drug Disposal Act of 2010 authorized the Attorney General to promulgate regulations for delivery of controlled substances by ultimate users for disposal. Attorney General Holder delegated this responsibility for promulgating the Disposal Act implementing regulations to the DEA. After taking public comment and holding a public meeting January 19-20, 2011, the DEA published notice of proposed rulemaking for disposal of controlled substances on December 21, 2012. As of July 2014, the DEA continues to be unable to provide any timetable for approval of the final rule.
Until the DEA finalizes the implementing regulations for the Disposal Act, ultimate users are not permitted to deliver their lawfully obtained controlled substances to any other person for the purpose of disposal other than by surrender to law enforcement or under direction of the area's DEA Special Agent in Charge. The proposed rule would expand the options available for the collection of prescription drugs, including more take-back events, programs to mail-back prescriptions, and increased availability of collection receptacles. Unfortunately, without a final rule the State of Ohio does not have all necessary tools to implement any of these options and get potentially deadly, unneeded prescription medications out of circulation.
