Alphonse Legros (1837-1911)
'A Study of the Head of a Man'
Museum no. CAI 40
Bequeathed by Constantine Alexander Ionides
Between 1876 and 1893 Legros taught at the Slade School of Art in London. While other art schools advocated detailed compositions, placing great emphasis on shading, Slade students were encouraged to make rapid linear sketches from the life model. Legros was an accomplished portraitist, but this study was probably a one-hour demonstration drawing made against the clock in the Slade life room.

EVERYTHING ABOUT WALTER MOSLEY'S sixth-floor walk-up in New York City's Greenwich Village says bohemian. The furniture is mix and match, the cramped office piled with books and cartons containing his collection of comics, the walls decorated with his own delicate line drawings. Nothing suggests that this is the apartment of the newest hot-property mystery writer. Even Mosley, 40, talks about his life before this latest incarnation as if it were only yesterday. Until he sold his first novel three years ago, he had been a painter, a potter and a computer programmer. "I was happy," he says, "but I was lost."
Now he's found. With the publication of White Butterfly, his third novel featuring Easy Rawlins, a black detective on the streets of South Central L.A. in the '40s and '50s, Mosley fans are raving. "As rich as the best of Chandler and Ross MacDonald," wrote Dick Adler of the Chicago Tribune, adding that the book "grabs you by the elbow from the getgo." There's talk in Hollywood of putting the private eye on the big screen, and Danny Glover, Denzel Washington and Wesley Snipes are all interested. And to top that, Bill Clinton recently told reporters he's read all of Mosley's mysteries. "The fact that Clinton's reading Gabriel Garcia Marquez and likes my books," says Mosley, "makes me happy."
Mosley believes he has opened a window on the black experience in white America. In Butterfly—set in the jazzy, post-World War II Watts of juke joints, good-time girls and working-class folks—Easy is called in by police to help find a serial killer; though three black women had already been murdered, the cops only take notice when a white woman dies. For Mosley, the story's the thing; messages about racism are secondary. "I love these characters," he says, talking as if they were in the room with him. "If I do it right, they tell a story which has all the political and social fabric entwined around them." Mosley says that at readings across the country, blacks have been recognizing their lives in his books and saying, "Wow, this is the way things are." And that, he says, makes him "feel connected in a way that I never was before."
Mosley shares with his alter ego an intimate knowledge of life in South Central, where he grew up the only child of a white mother, Ella, and a black father, Leroy. They met in the public-school system, where she worked as a personnel clerk at the Board of Education and he as a custodian. (Both went on to become supervisors.) He absorbed storytelling skills from both sides of the family—Ella's, with their "old Jewish stories about the czars and living in Russia," he says, and Leroy's, with their Texas tales of "violence and partying and eating and drinking."
In 1971 he briefly attended Goddard College in Vermont; he got his bachelor's degree from Johnson State College in Vermont in 1977. He tried graduate studies in political science at the University of Massachusetts, didn't like it and moved to Boston to be with Joy Kellman, a dancer and choreographer he'd met in 1979. Walter was attracted to Joy, now 41, immediately; she was less sure. "He was just aggressive," she says with a laugh. "But soon I realized there's more to this guy than I'm seeing on the surface." In the late '70s and early '80s, he drifted from one odd job to the next; for a while he sold his own pottery, and he once took a stab at the catering business. The couple moved to New York City in 1982 and married five years later.
In Manhattan, working as a computer consultant for Mobil Oil, Mosley realized that he wanted to discuss books and movies with his colleagues, but "people would say, 'Walter, we don't want to hear what you have to talk about, we want to work,' " he remembers. Reading Alice Walker's The Color Purple changed his life. "I'd read a lot of the French—Camus and all that—and I love their writing. But that voice, that narrative—I couldn't write like that," he says. "Then when I read Walker, I thought, 'Oh! I could do this.' " So he started writing at nights and on weekends.
After a couple of years, he finished a novel, Gone Fishin', but couldn't find a publisher. In 1989 he showed the first Easy Rawlins book, Devil in a Blue Dress, to a teacher at City College of New York—where he was studying writing—who immediately passed it on to his agent. Within months Mosley had a book deal and a modest advance. Devil came out in 1990 and his second novel, A Red Death, a year later. They weren't big sellers, but Mosley was happy to be making a living at writing. Says Joy: "I always knew Walter would find his niche."
Mosley is now working on a novel about a character who once played with legendary blues guitarist Robert Johnson, and he has a title—Black Betty—but no plot for his fourth Easy Rawlins mystery. Postsuccess, he and Joy have no big changes planned, except maybe to move to a larger apartment. But old habits die hard. "We have such artist personalities," says Mosley, "that we always think we're going to be broke."

The LaRue County Health Department hosted Kick Butts Day March 21 at LaRue County Middle School.
Kick Butts Day is a national day of activism that empowers youth to speak up and take action against "Big Tobacco."
Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death in the United States, killing more than 400,000 people every year. Every day, more than 4,000 kids try their first cigarettes; another 1,000 kids become addicted smokers, one-third of whom will die prematurely as a result.
One of the main goals of the new statewide assessment system is to prepare students for entrance into college and careers.
This preparation begins years before students enter high school. For instance, LaRue County Schools instructional supervisor Denise Skaggs, school administrators, staff and students are actively involved in year-round readiness activities at LaRue County Middle School.

DCP provides payments to eligible producers on farms enrolled for any of the 2008 through 2012 crop years. There are two types of DCP payments: direct payments and counter-cyclical payments. Both are calculated using the base acres and payment yields established for the farm. DCP is authorized by the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (2008 Farm Bill).
In addition to DCP, other FSA programs also have enrollment deadlines approaching:
Failed to report
One of the signs of spring is the yellow flowers that emerge from buttercup plants in pastures and unplanted grain cropland. While buttercup poses little problems to grain crop yields, it can be an issue in pastures.
Buttercups tend to thrive in low areas of fields, generally in soils that remain wet long periods of time and in fields with poor stands of desirable forages. In fact, many pasture fields that have heavy buttercup populations are fields that are heavily grazed by livestock.
Linda Salsman has donated a resource book about South Fork Cemetery to the LaRue County Genealogy Society. Salsman's research includes photos of the tombstones, death certificates and photographs of the individual when available.
Family members are encouraged to expand the materials by donating information and pictures that they would like to include. This will be an ongoing project to help future generations with their family tree research.

Blinking on the Bench: How Judges Decide Cases
Chris Guthrie
Vanderbilt University - Law School
Jeffrey J. Rachlinski
Cornell Law School
Andrew J. Wistrich
California Central District Court
Cornell Law Review, Forthcoming
Vanderbilt Public Law Research Paper No. 07-25
Vanderbilt Law and Economics Research Paper No. 07-32
How do judges judge? Do they apply law to facts in a mechanical and deliberative way, as the formalists suggest they do, or do they rely on hunches and gut feelings, as the realists maintain? Debate has raged for decades, but researchers have offered little hard evidence in support of either model. Relying on empirical studies of judicial reasoning and decision making, we propose an entirely new model of judging that provides a more accurate explanation of judicial behavior. Our model accounts for the tendency of the human brain to make automatic, snap judgments, which are surprisingly accurate, but which can also lead to erroneous decisions. Equipped with a better understanding of judging, we then propose several reforms that should lead to more just and accurate outcomes.

Steelers-Dolphins pregame stretch...
October 23, 2010 - Ray Eckenrode
A history of violence
The NFL's showboating crusade against violent hits over the past week just might be the biggest charade in sports history, akin to Hugh Hefner fining Playboy Bunnies for excessive nudity.
The league is on the slipperiest of slopes here. First, because it has glamorized and marketed violence for so long (and, of course, was caught doing it again this week, selling a photo of the very hit that it was publicly vilifying). And secondly, because its newfound concern for players' health is hypocritical BS, illustrated by the fact it is currently fighting the workers comp claims of more than 130 former players.
While the NFL might reside in a mansion on the hill right now, it's the biggest glass house ever built. Football is a great game but the NFL and football are not synonymous. The NFL has become an economic juggernaut using this formula:
Football + Violence2 + Gambling x Alcohol = $$$$$$$
But the biggest part of that equation that has made the NFL the most popular sport in America is simple bloodlust, a little bit of the old ultraviolence.
And James Harrison, who's been vilified this week as a thug and a criminal, is, in fact, just a well-paid gladiator, who puts on literal and chemically enhanced armor each weekend and plays the role of hero or villain, depending on which colosseum he's performing in. And lest you think we're pontificating, we are fully aware that Harrison does it for one reason and one reason only: because you and I are willing to pay to watch him.
Hit parade
We've heard Harrison, Mike Tomlin and Art Rooney proclaim all week that they believe the hit the Steelers linebacker was fined for, on Mohamed Massaquoi, was legal, but they've provided very little supporting detail. We believe the hit was borderline based on two factors. First, the Browns receiver was very close to exiting the "defenseless receiver" stage at the time of the hit. He was no longer looking at the ball, which he had already dropped, and took a full step while looking at Harrison, even instinctively ducking his head, which made the hit worse. Second, Harrison's head, shoulder and forearms all hit Massaquoi simultaneously, which is technically illegal, but not nearly as egregious as leading with the helmet. We'd guess that had this hit been the only one that occurred anywhere in the league Sunday it would have gone unfined.
The pick
We chuckled when we read in the Miami Herald how Dolphins coach Tony Sparano planned to employ the "strategy" of having the Steelers wear their black jerseys Sunday in the predicted 86-degree weather in south Florida. There was no mention of how that "strategy" worked against the Steelers this year in two other games where the temperature topped 90 degrees, both dominating Pittsburgh victories. Also, we think the league did the Steelers an unintended favor by making James Harrison, and by extension, the team, the poster boy for illegal hits in the NFL. That should kick in the "us against the world" mindset that can prove so valuable as a motivational tool. That said, the Dolphins defense is good and if there's an easily visible scenario for a Miami win it involves an el foldo act by the Steelers offensive line. Absent the NFL theatrics of the past week, we'd have been scared to death of that outcome, but now ... Steelers (-3) 31-21.
Prediction record
Last week: Cleveland +13.5 INCORRECT
Season vs. spread: 2-3, .400
Season straight up: 3-2, .600

New Delhi: To the build up of 2012-13 Ranji Trophy season, hints of Indian domestic circuit ushering in new heights was evident with the format getting a revamp and newly found interest of the scribes towards the country's premier cricketing competition.
Similarly, Services, a team struggling to put their name in the Ranji radar for the past eight years were also eying the new season for a revival with a revamp and preparations that were different and new. And, nearly two months into the season, the team has for sure reaped the rewards qualifying to the quarter-finals of the tournament for the first time in eight years.
The Services captain, Soumik Chatterjee - who was handed over the reins of the team this year only - feels that the approach they took preparing for the season was a big factor in their success. The team, that he was first part of in 2006, has improved in every front. The application and approach right from the training camps that they had and to the last league game of the tournament has helped the team to become the big boys this year.
"The approach of the team has changed; the whole process of the team that was formed in the past eight months has been so good. We are able to gel as a team and the communication is going well. All these would not have been possible without the efforts of the players and the support of management and support staff as well", says the 24-year-old captain.
Sitting pretty with 26 points, Services went into their last league game against Jharkhand with a mindset of playing the best game possible, according to Chatterjee. But the performance was not good enough as Jharkhand beat Services by five wickets. But, he feels that his team done well so far.
"Till now, our plan was to play good cricket. And with the kind of results we have got. I can say we have played 70 per cent good cricket. The way we started our season we wanted to continue that way and going further too, we have to play well to put up good performances".
BCCI's help came in for relaying the new pitch and Services appointed assistant coach Raju Singh as their head coach this season. Chatterjee feels his continuous efforts too have been rewarded with the team's success. He says, "Raju sir were with us for the past three season and this year he has been the head coach. He has put in a tremendous effort to coach us all. I remember in the rainy season, when there was not practice in north India, we used to come here and practice with Raju sir being there all the time. Raju Sir and Deepak sir (manager of the team) would come here and help us practice. They used to look after us.These small things make the big difference and it is there for all to see."
With the qualification, Services will be playing in a higher group (Group A) next Ranji season and Chatterjee is unfazed with the fact that they would be up against the big boys of Indian cricket. "We too are the big boys, we qualified from this group this year as big boys, it is all about in the mind. It is a matter of effort and the way we play. We capable of playing in the higher groups but the important thing is we have to perform well wherever we play".
As a player, Soumik is not satisfied with himself as the opener has scored two centuries and two fiftes in the eight group games, missing out on a ton by just three runs against Jharkhand. "Am not fully satisfied with my performance, I could have scored my third century in this match but I missed."
Chatterjee praised the bowling attack, which has so far performed really well even in unfavourable conditions. The Services strike bowlers, Suraj Yadav and Nishan Singh,have taken 55 wickets combined in eight matches with Shadaz Nazar, the medium pacer playing his debut season, chipping in with 25 wickets "Am happy with the effort of the new guy Shadaz Nazar. We were expecting good performance from him and he has delivered. Opening bowlers bowl in partnership and both Suraj and Nishan did that for us brilliantly this season. The bowlers performing well are a big boost to the team and we knew that and it was definitely one of the tricks that worked for us."
The mainstay of the Services batting line-up in the initial stages were the veteran Yashpal Singh and the young Rajat Paliwal, both of them scoring 724 and 629 runs respectively in the group fixtures, but they failed to score runs in the last two games. Soumik, though is undisturbed by the failures of his in-form players and said," They have done tremendously well this season and in cricket you just need one good ball to get out even if you in-form or out of form. So this is not a worry fo us as you will lose your wicket when you play. The team is about the eleven players playing and everyone contributes both with the bat and ball".
Services would be taking on Group B winners Uttar Pradesh in the quarter-finals with the match scheduled to be played at Indore, according to sources.

Stem Cell Therapy For Healing Treatment
Scientists have opined that stem cell therapy or cell-based therapies can improve cardiac function. Bone-marrow-derived progenitor cells and other progenitor cells can distinguish into vascular cell types, restoring blood flow. Do you think stem cells are really helpful to treat cardiac problems? Let's have a look.
According to Wikipedia – "Stem cells are undifferentiated biological cells that can differentiate into specialized cells and can divide (through mitosis) to produce more stem cells."
Generally, these cells are found in the multicellular organisms. There are different types of stem cells that come from different places in the body.
Broadly there are two types of stem cells:
1. Embryonic stem cells
2. Adult stem cells
The embryonic stem cells exist only at the earlier stage of development whereas adult stem cells are tissue specific. Adult stem cells remain in our bodies throughout life. In simple words, stem cells are the base for every organ and tissue in your body.
Stem cells have 2 main capabilities:
- Self-renewal
- Differentiate
Stem cells can make copies of them and develop into more specialized cells. Remember that stem cells vary widely in what they can and cannot do. That is why; researchers use all types of stem cells in their research.
Stem Cell Therapy For Healing
What conditions can be treated by stem cell therapy? A practical conducted by Johns Hopkins biomedical engineering students that confirmed, Doctors use adult stem cells in the surgical thread to treat serious orthopedic injuries.
Hence proved that stem cell therapy is helpful in healing and reduce the probability of re-injury. To include this healing treatment, we do not need to change the surgical procedure.

Why You Should Take Your Children Go-Karting
Just like Healing waters medical day spa is helpful to rejuvenate your life similarly Go-Karting can add spark or excitement in your kids life. I am sure you wonder how?
Today most parents do not have much time to spend with their kids. As a result, kids get more involved in the video games and TV. However these activities eventually become boring.
To avoid this boredom, MB2 Raceway Indoor Go Karting is the amazing option where kids develop a sense of competition and perform the best. In this activity riding of electric kart is involved. Kids aged 8 years and above may choose regular sized karts. If weather is not pleasant outside, your kids can go for indoor Go-Karting. Involving in sports activities is very important for kids overall growth.

Why is that if a man shoots a pregnant woman, and she and her unborn child die, he will be charged with two murders? Also, if a woman kills her child, she will be charged with murder.
But if there is an abortion, there is no murder charge. What's the difference? In all three cases, a life is taken.
I know the song about "not needed and/or unwanted." But couldn't this statement be applied to us old folks?
Any politician who supports this type of murder should be charged as an accessory, or at least not receive your vote.

Tenafly, United Way clear state review of proposed housing for disabled
TENAFLY — The borough's plan to build housing for the disabled has cleared another hurdle, with state environmental approval for the project proposed for 311 Tenafly Road.
The borough has been in discussion for several months about the construction of a 10-bedroom building in cooperation with United Way, a nonprofit group that builds a variety of housing for people of modest income around New Jersey. The organization has already built three projects in Allendale for the disabled and for low-income families, and the group also is building a home for the autistic in Ramsey and finishing a home in Fairview for low-income families.
The approval by the state Department of Environmental Protection came in December, but Tenafly found out about it only recently because the state was dealing with United Way, said Borough Administrator Jewel Thompson-Chin. The next step is for Tenafly to approve the contracts for the final transfer of the land and to begin construction. "It's all still in negotiation, and the details are being handled by our respective attorneys," Thompson-Chin said.
The discussions are taking place in closed session, she said.
Borough Attorney William McClure did not return calls seeking comment.
Mayor Peter Rustin said that "We will work out whatever we have to with United Way to move this thing forward."
The council has already approved purchase of the property for $999,000, which is coming out of Council On Affordable Housing funds. The borough is currently closing on the property.
"This is money that the state has threatened to take away from municipalities if they don't use it for projects like this, and in a town like Tenafly that is fully developed, it's hard to find places for it," said Rustin. The only other low-income housing is geared for senior citizens and is on East Clinton Avenue.
"It looks good for your town to have housing for this type of population. It reflects well on the community to have these projects. There's a big need for this. We'd have no problem filling it up," he said.
He emphasized that the taxpayers will not be burdened at all.
Other properties that United Way has built are aesthetically pleasing, he said.
The site required DEP approval because it is located close to the Tenakill Brook. The site had been built on previously.
"The property has been vacant for some time because there are not many things the DEP would approve near the brook. This type of project they were willing to grant a waiver," said Rustin, adding that he's been working hard on this project because "it's a win/win for the community."
The plan calls for a 6,000-square-foot building that would be an independent living facility for 10 persons with special needs. Each applicant must have a diagnosed developmental disability and demonstrate the ability to live independently and without supervision and meet requirements for low-income housing. The residents will all have different level of services depending on their needs, but there will not be any overnight staff, said Tom Toronto, president of United Way.
Toronto said "We are going back and forth about how to pay for construction. The challenge we face is that the special needs housing trust fund at the state level, which provided the capital for several of our other projects, is depleted. Now we have to raise the capital to build," he said. "The borough is donating the land. So we are trying to figure out the best way to proceed in terms of assembling the resources, including grants and financing."
Toronto estimated that the project would cost $1 million to build.
He emphasized that the need for such a project is enormous: "There's an extraordinarily long waiting list of people with disabilities who need affordable housing. The list is believed to be 8,000 and growing and that's in New Jersey alone."
There is no formal waiting list. As the project proceeds, an application process will be publicized.

One of the features of a sudden, intense episode is the immediate impulse to relive it and relate it to the others who were there, as shown here. (Harsh language warning).
Here's a much tamer piece from USAF Public Affairs featuring former Oregonian USAF Capt. Jolane McCarthy.
And here's an older one pieced together by photojournalist Cali Bagby, taken during her stint embeddded with Oregon's 7th Battalion, 158 Aviation in Iraq. I think I've posted it before, but it deserves a second look.
And here's Blackwater, swooping in to rescue the Polish ambassador Edward Piertzyk after he was wounded in an IED blast in Baghdad in 2007.

Calvin College goalkeeper Ryan Bratt came up with the big stop and teammate Miles Colago delivered the big kick.
Colago's goal in a back-and-forth shootout lifted the Calvin men's soccer team to a dramatic 2-1 victory against Wisconsin-Whitewater College on Friday night in sectional play of the NCAA Division III tournament at J.J. Keller Field in Oshkosh, Wis.
The Knights (17-2-4) will meet unbeaten Wisconsin-Oshkosh (19-0-3) at 7 p.m. Saturday in a quarterfinal.
The winner advances to the semifinals Dec. 3 in San Antonio, Texas.
Calvin outscored the Warhawks 9-8 in penalty kicks in the shootout.
Colago was Calvin's ninth player in the shootout after both teams matched each other through the first eight.
Bratt stopped a shot from Logan Fye, and then Colago converted the game winner past Wisconsin-Whitewater keeper Matt Mikesell.
A shootout was needed after a 1-1 tie at the end of the regulation and two overtimes.
The Warhawks took a 1-0 lead less than 12 minutes into the game on a goal by Ryan Richels. Calvin answered with a goal by Travis Vegter (Unity Christian) on an assist from Mike Sanderson (Grand Rapids Christian) with 20 minutes remaining in the first half.
The Knights outshot the Warhawks 8-7.
Calvin reached the national championship game last season and lost 2-0 to Messiah (Pa.) College.

You might have caught him on NPR's Weekend Edition, explaining how fire walking is really a lot like tossing a hot potato and likening the crunch of hot coals under his feet to popcorn. Or maybe you caught the starred PW review of his recently released Heat: Adventures in the World's Fiery Places: "Streever is able to mix the pop science, personal experiences, and historic asides into a fun and informative commentary on a subject that few people think about despite its inherent life and death implications."
This week, you can meet author Bill Streever at a free event in Anchorage. A biologist and an avid outdoors enthusiast who dives, hikes, bikes, sails, and cross country skis whenever time allows, Streever is fast building an international reputation for his alchemy with science and words. His new book picks up where his bestseller Cold left off, taking readers from fever to fire to thermonuclear weapons to the quark-gluon soups that form at seven trillion degrees.
In pursuit of new angles on the seemingly ordinary, Streever goes where most of us can't or won't. Seasoned with engaging facts combed from copious research, his experiences become threads in narratives so engaging that they leave you wondering why you didn't sign up for every science class in the catalog.
"I write creative nonfiction that leans toward science, and I am a biologist, but I am not a science writer," Streever explains. "I am a story teller who finds material in the natural world and frames it in the context of science. I use a process that involves firsthand experience, interviews, reading, development of extensive searchable notes, invention of a very important organic outline, writing punctuated by pathological revision, reader feedback when I can get it, and a few other steps along the way.
January 23, 49 Writers is hosting Bill Streever for a reading and
craft talk on "Storytelling and Science." The free event begins at at the Great Harvest Bread Company at 570
East Benson Boulevard.

For pistols, night sights.

I am going to repeat what a lot of other people have said. Practice and a positive attitude. Although good ammo would be a good thing to have too.
December 24, 2002, 01:07 AM
Preach' didn't really specify the scenario - I kinda took it to be more "street tactics."
Situational awareness has to be numeral uno.
Being aware of your surroundings has to be at the top for what ails you.
If you don't know what's happening (to you), you can't react correctly.
Although part of - training then kicks in. & better yet than "dealing with it," many situations can be offset (for lack of a better current thought process) by a thorough understanding of what is happening to you & how to defuse it.
Trading a couple quick verbal barbs, accepting an "insult" & yup, even running away are sometimes a much better tactic than having to employ yer fave shooter.
Living is right up there with my favorite enhancers. Staying out of the legal system has to be a solid second choice. ;)
Best bet though mentioned for a more static thing would be a trigger job. A 12 pound pull on a 3 pound gun can't help anything.
December 24, 2002, 03:17 PM
I think slow paced practice at your own leisurely rate.
Or a Drill Sargent standing over you yelling at you to hit your g******n targets... either one, really. ;)

It may sound a bit simple but the use of a spotting scope has helped my shooting. Frequent range sessions with 22 rimfire handguns and rifle have also helped me improve.

It might be too obvious, but one group I think to check out also is the sister section to Firearm Accessories: Gunsmithing and Repairs Section (http://www.thehighroad.org/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14).
That's my opinion, and I'm sticking to it.
An improvement that improves is functionally like an accessory: a well-done improvement can be effective also.

Sure, sure. Practice.

Recycleable. For those of you who don't know what it means, it means recycleable newspaper, magazines, aluminum and tin cans, plastic containers, green, brown and clear glass and cardboard....
Some people are pigs and slobs,probably raised by pigs and slobs, it is unfortunate that we have to put up with them. Is there a deserted island somewhere we we can drop them off?

Hey awesome. The letter was sad because of the way it was written, not the subject. Tax dollars have to be spent to remove all of the junk people drop off. You may not care about tax money being wasted, but many of us do.

Hey Awesome - is your name meant to be ironic?
People who abuse these places should be jailed for littering or theft of services. We who take our recyclables here are the ones who will lose out because of the ignorant self-centered actions of a few dolts that think the rules don't apply to them because they are special.
The Rescue Workers removed their blue boxes a few years ago because of this same abuse. At some point the county will be paying more to haul trash than they earn by selling recyclables.

I present for your consideration a somewhat brief and imperfect account of one of the rarer nematodes; rare, at least in this climate and latitude, though occurring with considerable frequency in tropical and sub-tropical countries. I refer to the Strongyloides intestinalis. The parasite is endemic in Cochin China, where it occurs in association with the diarrhea peculiar to the country—hence the name bestowed on it by European physicians, "Cochin China diarrhea."
This animal forms one of the class of parasites whose pathologic action is limited to the intestinal canal, and does not extend, as does that of the Amœba coli, to the liver and other organs. Teissier has claimed to have observed rhabditiform embryos circulating in the blood, and to have produced metastatic foci in the lungs of infected frogs. These observations, however, have not been confirmed by any other observer, and, for the present, we must conclude that the parasite's pathologic influence is lmited

I've a few small crafty projects line up but still collecting materials for them. However, I've been eager to start on an easy project that involved Mod Podge. I've seen Mod Podge being used everywhere; from coastal, shoes, tray, etc. When I saw LA in the Bay's DIY Glitter Heels, it was my motivation. So I decided to Mod Podge an old pair of flat with black glitter, it was super easy. My feet have high arches, so it's hard for me to find a perfect flats. I love these Soft Spot, but I've putted some wear and tear to it. I won't re-invent the wheels with the steps; so if you want to start your own project, check out her blog.
I picked up these material from ACMoore, I love a bargain so I went ahead and search for a coupon online. Found 40% off coupon, I'm a happy camper.
Outdoor Mod Podge
Black glitter
Bowl - I just used a foam bowl that way I can just trash it afterward.
Form brush
I bought the Crystal Clear Spray for another project, I was going to give it a try as a top coat, but end up didn't used it.
I was home doing this by myself so I couldn't take the step by step photos as my hands were sticky, but I promise it was super easy. The reason I choose Outdoor Mod because I want it to protect from the rain. However, next time I probably won't use Outdoor Mod Podge for the top layer; it felt every thick even thought I only did one layer. I'll probably try the regular Mod or the Mod Glitter.
Have you done any project with Mod Podge? How do you like it? Please share your projects!

Livable Communities
The sustainability of our cities – as measured by both the quality of life they provide today, and the long-term environmental protection they promise to future generations – will determine the future of our planet. Considering the host of social and environmental challenges we currently face – including global warming, air quality concerns, water scarcity, food and energy security, poverty and declining social equity – the global trend toward urbanization demands that cities be part of the solution.
Futurewise works to ensure that our cities are vibrant, equitable and healthy. Creating great cities takes action at many spheres – statewide, regionally, locally and in our neighborhoods. Futurewise uses research and analysis, meaningful community engagement, policy development, advocacy and organization to foster great cities for all.

Seattle 2035
Seattle 2035 is a yearlong, citywide conversation about change – where we've been, where we are now and where we want to go over the next 20 years. Futurewise is working with the City and with our partners to ensure that our city doesn't just grow – but that it grows more equitable, healthier and more environmentally sustainable.
Affordable Housing Strategies for Seattle
In February, Futurewise released its Affordable Housing Strategies for Seattle, which outlines many tools and strategies which should be explored as part of a Comprehensive Affordable Housing Strategy for Seattle. Our approach recognizes that there is no silver bullet. Instead, there are a number of strategies which should be considered and implemented. The scale of the problem as well as its difficulty calls for a number of complementary, effective strategies to be deployed together. Click here to download the Affordable Housing Strategies for Seattle report.
Equity Analysis of Growth Scenarios
Seattle is expected to grow by 120,000 people and 115,000 jobs over the next 20 years. Where should we build housing for more residents? Will new employment centers emerge? How will this impact our transportation system, parks and other services? The city is currently examining these questions in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement and Futurewise is working with City staff to complete an Equity Analysis of Growth Scenarios – a comprehensive look at how our growth might impact vulnerable communities and potential policy solutions to keep the City affordable and accessible for our residents. The final report will be released in May as a companion document to the DEIS.
Health & Equity Assessment
An equitable, healthy city is one in which all residents have access to those elements which enable them to live up their full potential. In an equitable city, all residents can afford safe, quality housing, have access to quality jobs, live and work in a healthy environment, have reliable transportation, enjoy easy access to parks and recreation, and can rely on a school system which gives all children the tools they need to achieve their full potential. Futurewise is examining many of the most important determinants of equity and opportunity and examines differences in access to those determinants for residents based on community characteristics and where they live Look for our final report in May.

If you are committed to affordable housing, a great transportation system and healthy, walkable neighborhoods, let us know here.
Kent Comprehensive Plan
Futurewise is working with the City of Kent to ensure that the City's Comprehensive Plan is healthy and equitable. After a year of community engagement, we are now working to ensure that the policies and goals set by the City reflect the needs and priorities of the cities diverse and changing population.
In 2014, Futurewise partnered with Mother Africa, El Centro de la Raza, OneAmerica and InterIm CDA to conduct outreach and engagement with traditionally under-represented communities. Click here to learn more about what Kent residents had to say.
Transportation Levy to Move Seattle
The City of Seattle is constantly at work improving their roads, sidewalks and bridges. For the past eight years, much of that work has been funded by a voter-approved levy called Bridging the Gap, which expires in 2015. The City has proposed a new Transportation Levy to Move Seattle, a nine-year, $900 million dollar initiative which would fund transportation improvements throughout the city. Seattle Department of Transportation needs your input to finalize the plan which will go to voters on the November 2015 ballot.
The proposed investments are outlined in the Move Seattle report, which you can read here.

Lake to Bay
The Lake to Bay area connects some of Seattle's most iconic public spaces – the Waterfront, Myrtle Edwards Park, SAM Olympic Sculpture Park, Seattle Center and Lake Union Park. It is also an area undergoing rapid change as an emerging housing and employment hub. Futurewise worked with JZ Works, Framework and CMG to create and Inventory and Opportunities report which sets forth a bold vision for Lake to Bay to capitalize on new development and growth to create a world-class neighborhood centered on these iconic spaces.
The Lake to Bay Inventory and Opportunities work included a deep review of existing conditions; including research on transportation, topography, land uses, environmental conditions, current amenities, policy documents, and gaps along with future opportunities. This analysis resulted in a re-imaged vision of the Lake to Bay as a city-defining connection between the north end of the waterfront and South Lake Union, along with a focus on creating a high quality public realm for the Lake to Bay zone. Read the report here.
Happy Seattle
How does the built environment influence how we move, feel and behave? During the summer and fall of 2014, Happy City and Futurewise partnered to explore these themes with an urban experimentation lab. We concluded this work on October 23rd at an urban laboratory event which involved 150+ participants at Seattle's Olympic Sculpture Park. The event featured various experiments which were designed to transform complex urban and behavioral studies into fun, participatory activities that gave participants a visceral sense of the science of place.
A key element of this work was a multi-stage research experiment dubbed Editable Urbanism, in which we worked with teams of volunteers to document and then test the social effects of building façade typologies in central Seattle. We found a remarkable connection between design and pro-social behavior. Click here to read more about this event.
Community Engagement Toolkit
An equitable plan begins with inclusive, innovative community engagement. In 2014, Futurewise partnered with El Centro de la Raza, OneAmerica and InterIm CDA to engage traditionally under-represented communities throughout King County in meaningful dialog to learn about the challenges and priorities of these communities. We produced the Community Engagement Toolkit to help other organizations and governments develop successful engagement strategies. Click here to download the Community Engagement Toolkit.
Transit Oriented Communities: A Blueprint for Washington State
The expansion of Sound Transit's new Link light rail, county-based bus rapid transit lines, and city streetcars offer more than a means of moving people from one point to another, they also are an opportunity to support and create livable communities by opening up new housing, job, and service opportunities for people to gain access to, from, and within the neighborhood.
Futurewise has been a leading thinker and advocate for building complete, compact, and connected neighborhoods around new high-capacity transit stations for all people. In 2009, Futurewise co-published our region's foremost station-area typology and best-practices manual, "Transit-Oriented Communities: A Blueprint for Washington State," with Transportation Choices Coalition and GGLO, and has since been a tireless advocate across the region.

HOMETOWN: Joliet, III.
OLD JOB: Steakhouse waitress
NEW JOB: Supermodel-in-training
•Why you know her: She beat out nine others to be crowned by Tyra Banks, executive producer of UPN's guilty pleasure. "It was beyond unexpected," says Curry, who won a Revlon contract, a top agent and a spread in Marie Claire. "I was not aware that I cleaned up so well."
•In the beginning: In junior high Curry was 5'1" with size-11 feet. "I constantly tripped on myself," she says. "I never matched my clothes, didn't brush my hair. I didn't care." Sprouting to 5'10½" changed her attitude.
•Why she won: With her mom, Christine, 44, laid off from her Kraft factory job last year, Curry saw the prize as a way to help out. Says Banks: "I loved that winning this would change her life."
•Love life: Recently split from her boyfriend of four years, Curry has no plans to marry. Unless, she says, a proposal is forthcoming from Trent Reznor of the band Nine Inch Nails (no, she's never met him).
•Where she's headed: With this leg up, Curry plans to "excel something fierce in modeling" after being rejected for seven years by Chicago agencies. "One said they had the feeling they were going to regret not signing me. I say, 'Regret away!' "

Terrible. No color, too shimmery. Didn't stay on my greasy lids and hardly any product in the tube. Probably my biggest makeup regret ever.

I like the formula and the applicator of this eyeshadow, but you don't really get a lot inside. That's okay though, since I got it on clearance for something like 1.49. Swatched on my hand, Vintage Champagne is a really pretty pinky-beigey-champagne colour. On my eyes however, it shows up peach or a sort of glimmery pale orange. In some ways it must be close to my skin colour, I guess, as all you see when I put it on is a bit of an orangey sparkle. I'm not sure why that is but it makes this shadow pretty much unwearable for me as I don't really think peach eye shadow works for me. I found the same thing with Clinique Lucky Penny that so many seem to like, and which this reminds me a bit of.

I've owned the Maybelline Shadow Stylist in Vintage Champagne for about three years and I absolutely adore it. The pinkish, bronze colored shadow is very pigmented and lasts fairly long for a drugstore eyeshadow when applied over a primer. It's very metallic and I usually use a shader brush to spread across my lid after applying a little with the sponge applicator that comes with it. I love the packaging because it looks really cute and unique. I hope to purchase more of these shadows in the future because of their cute design and strong pigmentation. I definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a great, inexpensive lid color. The only downfall to the product is that it does not last as long as Mac or Lancome shadows.

I really do like this color. I apply it by dabbing the applicator on my lids to get the pigments layered on my eye and then get a little fluffy brush and wash it over my lid and it look so pretty and natural. The I just line my upper lash and apply mascara and I look great without having to put much effort in it. I hate the packaging though, I'd much rather if they'd but this loose powder in a little pot or something.

I can't believe there were so many mixed reviews for this. I'm a girl who usually doesn't wear too much makeup and I don't like spending too much time applying it on my face. So this is a great product for me. I bought all the colors. I LOVE the applicator brush under the cap. I think it's a great idea because it's very convenient. I'm a girl on the go and I don't like carrying a lot of make up in my purse so it's a great color that goes from day to night. It tends to get messy if you're not careful. I usually dab the brush before to remove excess powder and I sometimes put a base or a primer. Overall I think it's a good product but of course, not everyone will agree.

I like this because it's portable and really easy to apply. The applicators is a sponge tip, which makes it easy to get on your bottom lid. This colour is really pretty too. With udpp it lasts all day.

I can't believe no one has reviewed this product before now! I purchased my Shadow Stylist in the color Vintage Champagne, and it is exactly that color--a nice dusky beige/gold. I love the little sponge applicator and how easily it glides on to my lids. It is very shiny and shimmery, but it is subdued enough to wear for an everyday look. This really great shadow doesn't even need a base underneath it; it hardly creases at all throughout the day. When I put this on, I feel as though I don't have layers upon layers of gunk on my eyelids; it's just so lightweight and velvety. I will definitely repurchase, and I already have!

A group of Muslim nations called the Organization of the Islamic Conference are claiming they designed a United Nation's defamation resolution to guard all religions against defamation.
Human rights advocates have long opposed the measure because it targeted speech rather than behavior and because it protected the rights one religion, Islam, rather than individuals.While the most recent push was recently dropped by U.N. Human Rights Council, rights groups warn the OIC will likely bring back the defamation resolution in the future. Jay Sekulow, chief counsel for the American Center for Law and Justice, talked more about the issue on "The 700 Club," April 13.
"This effort led by the Pakistanis was designed to give U.N. cover to their blasphemy law and similar laws in other Islamic nations," CBN News International Correspondent Gary Lane said. In Pakistan, a blasphemy law has been used to persecute Christians and other religious minorities.
"Simple Christian activities like praying, worshipping, and sharing one's belief in Jesus Christ with a neighbor can be interpreted as offensive and therefore restricted," Carl Moeller, president of Open Doors USA, said.
In recent months, Islamic hard-liners murdered Pakistan's Minister of Minority Affairs Shahbaz Bhatti and Punjab Gov. Salman Taseer for speaking out against the nation's blasphemy law.
Pakistan's Muslim leaders praised the killings, sparking an international outcry. Lane suggests that global pressure might have played a role in influencing Pakistani leaders to drop their support for the defamation resolution.
"In light of the recent assassinations of Taseer and Bhatti, few countries would have supported an anti-defamation resolution because those murders really demonstrated the harsh and dark nature of those laws and the regimes that support them," he explained.
This year's resolution is based on terms advocated by Western religious rights groups. While it emphasizes protecting individuals from discrimination or violence because of their faith, religious rights advocates say it too could be used to stifle religious freedom.

|Mod, Hipster
What materials did you use? my own painted canvas, buttons, stitching, cord, cotton fabric, bag hardware
What are you most proud of? The painting/fabric was quite thick in places and therefore difficult to work with. I guess I'm proud that I was able to pull it off even if it isn't perfect. Oh well, I already have pieces waiting for the next one.
I love how creative you were with using the painted canvas for your bag!!! The bag would make a great focal point for a simple outfit. I am curious to know the measurements of the bag. Also, is it a cross-body bag?
Thank you, BeaSewGood. The bag is smallish. It measures 8.5" w x 6.5" high, give or take. And yes, it's supposed to be a cross-body bag (my favorite). Totally hands-free. That's why for the next one I'll only attach one strap. Oh, and also make the bag itself a bit larger.
This is so cool. I LOVE that you painted your own fabric - that's just awesome. Great job :)
Thank you for a wonderful video :)
This a beautiful bag, very eye catching......
Wearable art!!! Great idea, well done!!
I think I'll mix painted canvas with painted fabric for the next one...

My sister-in-law fed my nephew lots of pureed veggies (sweet potatoes, zucchini, carrots, eggplant) and pureed fruits too. Why don't you look at the ingredients list on an Earth's best box and just do the same but without the non-Primal things? Maybe that could work?
Do you feed your kid dairy? Maybe some homemade greek yogurt? I don't know if you're meant to give that to 8 m.o. kids though haha I'm just throwing out suggestions, I'm only 18!

I read with interest the clinical observation of Marder and Mellinghoff1 regarding the possible association between Buerger disease and cocaine. Many epidemiological and toxicological studies are converging to demonstrate that Buerger disease may be related to arsenic intoxication. These interesting data are presented here.
Buerger disease is rare in Western countries but is the most prevalent vascular disease in Southeast Asia. Smoking is generally considered the principal cause. However, nonsmokers are sometimes also affected. In Western countries, the incidence of Buerger disease has been declining since 1947, but curiously not the rate of mortality due to cigarette smoking.2,3 In several Asian countries, such a decline in the incidence of Buerger disease has not occurred. In Taiwan, blackfoot disease (an endemic form of vascular thrombosis similar to Buerger disease) is related to arsenic poisoning from well water.4 The same public health problem is present in Bangladesh and in some areas of India where almost half of the population is at risk of arsenic intoxication.5,6 This could explain the high prevalence of Buerger disease in these regions. Toxicological and histological studies tend to confirm this pathological relationship.7

Last year, Volkswagen secured a class victory at the 24 Hours of the Nürburgring with a natural gas-powered version of its Scirocco. VW will once again tackle the famous endurance race this year with three natural gas-powered Scirocco GT24-CNGs.
Powering the Scirocco GT24-CNG is a version of VW's turbocharged 2.0-liter Inline-four-cylinder, modified to run on natural gas. In GTI and Golf R forms, this engine can produce 207 and 265 horsepower, respectively. Tuned for racing and the CNG fuel, the engine's output is somewhere in the realm of 330 horsepower. Perhaps mean and green are no longer mutually exclusive characteristics…
In order to give the company its best shot at a repeat class victory, VW enlisted some serious drivers. The first Scirocco GT24-CNG will be driven by Jimmy Johansson, Florian Gruber, and Nicki Thim, who all competed in a conventional gasoline-powered Scirocco at the same event last year and secured VW its third-consecutive class title. Peter Terting, who drove the Scirocco GT24-CNG to victory in the alternative powertrains class last year, will also join the group.
Driving the second Scirocco GT24-CNG will be Nassar Al-Attiyah, Vanina Ickx, Dieter Depping, and Klaus Niedzwiedz. All have proven themselves in racing time and again: Al-Attiyah finished second in the Dakar Rally as part of VW's podium sweep, Ickx is an accomplished DTM driver and daughter of Formula 1 driver Jacky Ickx, Depping is a three-time German rally winner, and Niedzwiedz has won the endurance race at the "Green Hell" twice.
The last car is perhaps the most interesting. Driven by a team comprised of two VW executives and two automotive journalists, the third GT24-CNG receives a new front differential. The electro-hydraulic unit reportedly helps curtail understeer on the nose-heavy car.
We're betting Volkswagen will find at least some success at this year's race. In fact, the automaker says Nicki Thim set a course lap record for a front-wheel-drive vehicle during the last round of testing. VW plans on entering one more Endurance Championship event on the famed circuit before jumping into the 24-hour event, scheduled to begin on May 13.
