Study Finds Bipartisan Public Consensus on Wide Range of Foreign Policy IssuesDecember 28, 2006
Majorities of Both Parties Agree on How to Deal with Iraq, Iran, Nuclear Proliferation, Climate Change and Other Issues
President Bush and Democratic leaders in the newly-elected U.S. Congress have promised to try to work together in a bipartisan manner. But most observers are bracing for battles between Democratic and Republican lawmakers over contentious questions such as the conduct of the war in Iraq, the best way to contain Iran�s nuclear ambitions and how to deal with the North Korean nuclear threat.
US House of Representatives
Among members of the U.S. public, however, there is broad bipartisan consensus about how U.S. foreign policy should be conducted. A wide ranging analysis by WorldPublicOpinion.org of polls from numerous organizations reveals substantial agreement across party lines on many of the most contentious issues facing policymakers today. Not only do overwhelming majorities of Democrats and Republicans favor a bipartisan approach to foreign affairs in general, they also agree on specific policies to address problems ranging from the turmoil in the Middle East to nuclear proliferation to global warming.
And Americans support the key recommendations of the Iraq Study Group regarding the withdrawal of U.S. troops and talking with Iran and Syria.
This study includes a newly-released poll (conducted Dec. 6-11) and other recent surveys by WorldPublicOpinion.org/Knowledge Networks. In addition, it analyzes polls by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs and other organizations.
Steven Kull, editor of WorldPublicOpinion.org, said the study showed �sometimes it is easier for the public to find common ground than it is for politicians.�
�Should Democrats and Republicans in government aspire to find common ground on foreign policy the American public can provide them with guidance on a wide range of international issues,� Kull said.
The following are some examples of areas where there is bipartisan consensus:
The War in Iraq
� WPO�s new December poll finds that majorities favor withdrawing almost all U.S. combat troops from Iraq by 2008 (Republicans 62%, Democrats 88%) and that they believe the U.S. government should clearly state it does not want permanent bases there (Republicans 65%, Democrats 81%).
Iran�s Nuclear Ambitions
� Americans from both parties think the U.S. government should build better relations with the Iranian government rather than try to change its behavior through implied military threats (Republicans 56%, Democrats 88%).
The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
� WPO�s December poll shows that Americans believe the United States should �not take either side� in the conflict between Israel and the Palestinian territories. (Republicans 58%, Democrats 80%)
North Korean Nuclear Threat
� Majorities in both parties think the United States should offer to give North Korea security guarantees (Republicans 61%, Democrats 82%) if the government in Pyongyang is willing to eliminate its nuclear weapons
Protecting the Global Environment
� Republicans and Democrats favor legislation limiting U.S. emissions of the greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming (Republicans 61%, Democrats 82%).
Defense Spending
� Bipartisan majorities believe government spending on defense should either be kept at present levels or scaled back (Republicans 61%, Democrats 83%)

InBrief | Odd News 07/23/13
Demolition crew knocks down wrong building
FORT WORTH, Texas — A demolition company has mistakenly torn down a three-bedroom home in North Texas rather than the condemned building next door.
David Underwood and his wife placed their Fort Worth house on the market with the intention of moving into the retreat they purchased near the shores of Lake Worth. The lakeside land has been in the family for decades and Underwood bought it from an aunt earlier this year.
But when they stopped by to mow the lawn last week, they found the home was gone. A slab of foundation remains.
Fort Worth hired the demolition company to raze the condemned building, and was billed $6,000 for the work.
The condemned structure remains standing.
Underwood is seeking a settlement from the city.
Man following Biden's advice gets arrested
VANCOUVER, Wash. — A Washington state man who fired a shotgun in the air to chase away car prowlers says he was following the advice of Vice President Joe Biden.
Jeffrey Barton, 52 of Vancouver, pleaded not guilty last week in a Clark County court to a charge of illegally discharging a firearm.
Outside of court, Barton said, "I did what Joe Biden told me to do. I went outside and fired my shotgun in the air."
In an answer to a home defense question in February, the vice president said Americans don't need semi-automatic weapons because a couple of blasts from a shotgun will scare off intruders.

This didn't work out for me - -had no flavor at all. I don't know if I should have doubled the recipe?
Nicely done! This rub is simple, quick, flavorful and the brown sugar gives the steak a nice caramelized coating. Made as written. Thanks for the post.
Very nice steak! I used a rib eye and grilled this on my stove-top grill pan. Simple and tasty. Thanks Crafty Lady 13 for a new nice keeper. Made for I Recommend Tag.

How do I classify my product, locate the HS number and export commodity code for the Schedule B?
For help with import classification, you must contact your local customs office. For exports, follow the steps below:
For example, entering the keyword "software" pulls up 852431 through 852499, and clicking on the numbers brings you into Chapter 85 at heading 8524, where you can read through the descriptions under the suggested subheadings to find the right Schedule B number.

Two days before Christmas, the widow of slain American Sniper Chris Kyle sued the tactical-training company her husband started in 2009, alleging that the men now in charge are conspiring to "steal" it from her. When reached by The Dallas Morning News Monday, Craft International Chief Operating Officer Bo French said he had no comment. Three days later, he has changed his mind and now calls Taya Kyle's allegations "completely groundless."
Taya Kyle alleges that French and Craft International Chief Executive Officer Steve Young had the opportunity to buy Chris Kyle's ownership "units" following his death on February 2, when Chris and Chad Littlefield were shot to death at a shooting range about 50 miles southwest of Fort Worth. When they "did not exercise their respective rights" within 130 days, according to the suit, Taya Kyle took possession of 85 percent of Craft. The suit alleges Young and French have created a spin-off company, piled all the debt on Craft, and refuse to make the company's financial records available to Chris's widow.
French says in a lengthy statement emailed to The Dallas Morning News Thursday that the company's founders, including Chris Kyle, entered into an operating agreement that was limited solely to its "Members." Says French, "none of the members" - including Chris Kyle - "wanted their spouses to become Members in case of death or divorce."
Adds French, "Taya Kyle did not become a Member of Craft upon Chris's death, but she does have certain rights. One of those is the right to have her interest bought by Craft at Fair Market Value. Taya Kyle indicated her desire to divest herself of all interest in Craft. Craft agrees it is time for the parties to separate in a business sense, and it moved forward in the manner provided by the Agreement."
French says the company did so by hiring a third-party appraiser to determine the value of her stake in the company. He says that offer was given to Kyle and attorney Larry Friedman. Kyle and Friedman maintain that never happened: "The books weren't in order, and money wasn't accounted for, and she couldn't get any answers," Friedman said Monday.
Which is why Taya Kyle now finds herself at odds with her husband's former business partners, who maintain they've done nothing but help Chris' widow during the past year.
"Craft and its friends proudly raised several hundred thousand dollars to support Taya Kyle and her children, as well as the Littlefield family," says French. "Craft has made every effort to be supportive of Ms. Kyle and her children following the loss of our friend and partner. It is unfortunate for everyone that we now find ourselves in a lawsuit, especially one filled with Ms. Kyle's personal attacks."

My Daughter's Holiday Choir ConcertBlack Hockey Jesus
My daughter's holiday choir concert was the greatest elementary school holiday choir concert of all time. I have not seen many. But I have a good imagination and when my imagination tries to imagine a better choir concert, it fails. This is unfortunate for you because it was last Thursday and you missed it. However, that's why I review things. But how can this paltry text draw near the miracle of little girl song? It can't. But these are the constraints the reviewer works within. Let's soldier on.
So there was this one part where a bunch of kids (none of whom were my daughter) were doing this riverdance kind of thing and, you know, fine, okay, good. You didn't really need to see that part unless one of the riverdancers was your kid, I guess, because yawn. And since I've started right out being negative, another bad part was the guy's head in my way (see above). I know the world doesn't revolve around me but I am a Babble Voices Reviewer and all the front row seats were reserved for parents of riverdancers. It just doesn't add up.
But enough with the complaining.
My daughter's up there singing. I can't really hear her because it's a choir. I know. It sounds obvious and it is obvious but there's a lot of cool stuff swirling around the obvious when you can see past the guy's head. For some reason, I thought about holding the back of her bike seat when she was learning how to pedal and steer. I remembered rocking her to sleep. And then I thought about her crazy fashion sense and smiled. These thoughts and memories, mind you, are not apart from the choir concert. They arose right along with Frosty The Snowman. She is so loud, already so opinionated, such a person. Again, obvious, but not so when you knew her before she was born. Most of her life, it seems to me, has been about emerging into an individual — trying herself on for size.
And this was the first time I was conscious of witnessing her dissolve into a group, a voice in a choir. I could see her waver between uncertainty and confidence. She'd forget a few words, peer to her left as if to see her neighbor's voice, then she'd pick up again and sing. THERE. That's what captured me. When she remembered the words, she forgot herself. She sang, she did, but she also abandoned her voice to a higher power of voices that was one cute Voice. You could see a kind of vacancy in her eyes. Concentration. Focus. Gone. What IS that? And who cares? You with me?
There's something inherently sacrificial in really listening to a song, in submitting to fantasy, in watching your daughter teach you how to vanish in a choir. Beyond that sacrifice, one really can't say. Voice to ear, lingering awhile, it's just Frosty The Snowman and the greatest elementary school choir concert of all time.

Heartworm Infections in CatsDecember 4th, 2007
Cats like many other mammals are prone to disease and infection, such as heartworm (dirofilaria immitis). Heartworm is not typical in cats, but is more comonly infectious in dogs. In cats, when the heartworm larvae develops in the heart, it is likely to move to other parts of the body. It can even be found in the cats brain. Heartworms have a maxium life in a cat of three years.
Its important to get your cat treated immediatly once you find out about a heartworm infection. Heartworm is best treated when it is just a larva. If it is in the adult stage, then it must be treated with an arsenic-based compound. Cats are far more sensitive to arsenic then dogs are. Then when the adult heartworms are killed, then the larva must be finished off and elimitated.
Heartgard for cats is prescription based since careful precations must be taken before giving it to your cat. Once you obtain a prescription you can buy heartgard for cats at a resonable price.

Find out what not to do with this companion to the Dictionary of Concise Writing - Windows Demo $9.95. "The Dimwit's Dictionary": Chosen by "PC Magazine Extra" as one of "The Top 10 Internet Downloads" for December 1999: "Anyone can start feeling a bit stupid after writing all those holiday cards. Let this tool help you be clever." -- Angela Gunn. Whereas a witticism is a clever remark or phrase -- indeed, the height of expression -- a "dimwitticism" is the converse; it is a commonplace remark or phrase. Dimwitticisms are worn-out words and phrases; they are expressions that dull our reason and dim our insight, formulas that we rely on when we are too lazy to express what we think or even to discover how we feel.
Dimwit's Dictionary 1.0 8-Nov-99 English 1.3 MB
The more we use them, the more we conform -- in thought and feeling -- to everyone else who uses them.The Dimwit's Dictionary is a compilation of thousands of dimwitticisms (cliches, colloquialisms, idioms, and the like) that people speak and write excessively. Many of the entries in this book are followed by synonyms that may be used in place of the worn-out word or phrase, and by sentence examples taken from a miscellany of publications; others are followed by commentary; and still others by both. But even the mere inclusion of an entry -- that is, one unaccompanied by synonyms or commentary -- damns it as a dimwitticism. The Dimwit's Dictionary will aid us in our quest for more purposeful speech and writing. The goal is to promote understanding and rouse people to action. The goal is to express ourselves as never before -- in writing that demands to be read aloud, in speech that calls to be captured in print. The Dimwit's Dictionary will annoy some people and amuse others. People who feel as though I am referring to them in some of the commentary in this book may be annoyed by what I write; those who feel as though I am referring to others may be amused by it. This is an annoying, amusing book.

HUEYTOWN, Alabama -- Two Hueytown brothers have been charged in connection to a violent attack on a 40-year-old woman in 2009, Attorney General Luther Strange and Bessemer Division District Attorney Arthur Green announced today.
Jason Lee Campbell, 31, and David Wesley Campbell, 36, are charged with kidnapping, rape, sodomy, robbery and attempted murder. The charges stem from a November 2009 attack against a 40-year-old woman in the 200 block of Eureka Place in Hueytown.
Special agents of the Attorney General's Investigations Division served the warrants on May 30 at jails where each brother already was incarcerated.
David Wesley Campbell was in custody at the Jefferson County Jail for probation violations regarding a conviction for a 1998 sexual assault.
Jason Lee Campbell was in custody at the Shelby County Jail for a probation violation regarding a property crime.
Bond for the current charges was set at $100,000 for each charge, totaling half a million dollars for each defendant. If convicted, the defendants face penalties of life imprisonment for each count.
The warrants were signed in the Bessemer Division of Jefferson County Circuit Court as a result of a joint investigation by the Attorney General's Cold Case Unit, the Bessemer Division of the Jefferson County District Attorney's Office, St. Clair County Sheriff Terry Surles and his Investigative Unit, and Hueytown Police Chief Charles Hagler and his Detective Division. The case will be prosecuted by the District Attorney's Office.

People are somewhat entranced with a twin pregnancy. The thought that someone is carrying TWO babies in their belly is understandably fascinating to folks (and I'm told by twin moms the fascination does not end with pregnancy – but continues on for quite some time after they're born.) For the most part – people are excited (of course there are some folks – parade rainers – who have nothing nice to say but they likely have nothing nice to say in general so you have to discount them for the most part.)
But there are some things .. that no one tells you. Until, well, it's too late. For example, "oh – after 25 weeks it gets really hard to breathe." Wait, what? Hard to BREATHE? But I need to breathe! I like to breathe. It relaxes me – and also keeps me, well, alive. And, "oh – the acid reflux? It's unbearable." And even. "you'll probably need to get Poise pads at some point." Poise pads? The ones you pee on? Oh my.
Thing is – a twin pregnancy is tricky. The human body is really only designed to carry one baby. Throw an extra one (or more!) in there – and things get complicated. Not impossible … as evidenced by the recent quintuplet birth at a Pittsburgh hospital … just, more complicated. There is more pain, there is more pressure, there is more weight gain, and there are more tears.
As I continue gestating my little boy and my little girl — at a weight I've never even come close to in my previous life, with protesting knee joints, aching hips (especially overnight), pelvic bones that zig when they're supposed to zag, and sciatica to spare … there are times when I think "I can't do it anymore. I just can't do it." Then I realize I have no choice – grit my teeth – and put one foot in front of the other. But boy do I have a new found respect for the multiple moms who have walked this path before me. Especially the TINY ones … oh my word. I'm TALL – nearly 5 feet 8 inches – I have some extra room in which to stash these two babies. Those moms who are shorter than me – HOW did they do it? Yet somehow, they did. And I am doing it too. And — I haven't purchased Poise pads. Yet.

Channel 3 anchor Steve Bell, a former combat correspondent for ABC News during the Vietnam War, is accompanying several Philadelphia-area Vietnam veterans as they march from Washington, D.C., to Penn's Landing and the proposed site of the veterans memorial.
Bell will give live reports today through Saturday at 6 and 11 p.m. on Channel 3's "Eyewitness News." He'll also examine how Vietnam vets are faring in the Delaware Valley today.
"The war may have ended 12 years ago," Bell said, "but it's legacy is still an important part of the American experience."

When Mesphisto manages to get Thor and his allies to Hell, he sets them battling the Legion and the nameless warriors controlled by them. Thor eventually defeated them after an hours-long battle despite being outnumbered. This was their only appearance as a team. The actual members of the Legion are unclear, as they are never named on panel. Nonetheless, several are readily identifiable by sight, and others have been tentatively identified. It is further unclear if these are the actual historical people, or merely some type of demon that has taken or been given a recognizable villainous form. Regardless, the following members have a general consensus on their identity: Adolf Hitler, Attila the Hun, Blackbeard, Genghis Khan, and Jack the Ripper. Four other men appear in the picture but have not been satisfactorily identified.

PPG Industries (NYSE: PPG ) announced today it has entered into a definitive agreement to purchase the North American architectural coatings business of AkzoNobel, an Amsterdam-based paints and chemical producer.
The boards of both PPG and AkzoNobel have approved the deal, valued at $1.05 billion, and it is expected to close in the second quarter of 2013. The transaction must still gain regulatory approval.
PPG Industries CEO Charles Bunch was quoted as saying, "This acquisition continues the accelerated pace of our business portfolio transformation through further expansion of our coatings businesses." AkzoNobel's North American business generated revenues of approximately $1.5 billion in 2011. PPG expects the acquisition will generate approximately $160 million in net operating earnings over the next three years, as much as $90 million in the first year.
AkzoNobel's North American architectural coatings business operates more than 300 company stores in the United States, about 240 in Canada and about 50 in the Caribbean.
PPG also announced it intends to reinitiate its share buyback program, anticipating it will spend between $500 million and $750 million for share repurchases during 2013.

Jurors sequestered to reach verdict on second-degree murder or manslaughter
After 24 hours of jury deliberations, there's still no verdict in the David Folker murder case.
David Folker, who is on trial for allegedly murdering his girlfriend in 2010, was back in Newfoundland and Labrador Supreme Court in St. John's Thursday to hear the judge instruct the jury. — Photo by Rosie Gillingham/The Telegram
The eight women and four men were sequestered just after lunch Thursday. As of lunchtime today, there's been no word.
Jurors spent the morning reviewing trial evidence, including exhibits and testimony, which they requested Thursday afternoon.
Folker is charged with second-degree murder in the July 18, 2010, death of 32-year-old Ann Marie Shirran, his girlfriend and the mother of their young son. He's also charged with interfering with her remains.
Jurors are debating their decision on second-degree murder or manslaughter.
Folker has admitted responsibility for Shirran's death. He said she died as a result of a physical altercation between them. However, he claims he didn't intend to kill her. He's also admitted to the second charge by disposing of her body in the woods in Cappahayden.
The Crown says Folker intended to kill Shirran because she had planned to take full custody of their son after their split. The defence argued it wasn't Folker's intension that she die, so he is guilty of manslaughter. A guilty verdict on the interfering with human remains charge is expected.
In their deliberations, the jury must consider a month's worth of evidence and testimony from the trial at Newfoundland Supreme Court in St. John's.
The Telegram has followed the case from start to finish and will keep readers posted.
(Earlier story)
No verdict after Day 1 of jury deliberations in Folker trial
The first day of jury deliberations didn't result in a verdict in the trial of suspected murderer David Folker.
But jurors did inquire about certain evidence presented at the trial.
At around 4:30 p.m., three hours after they were sequestered, the judge and lawyers were informed that the eight women and four men had a question for the judge.
When court was called to order about 20 minutes later at Newfoundland Supreme Court in St. John's, it was revealed that the jury requested to view some exhibits and review certain testimony.
Since equipment was required to do that, Justice Wayne Dymond opted to have it arranged for the morning.
Shortly after the judge stepped off the bench, jurors decided to adjourn their deliberations for the day. They will be back this morning to review the evidence.
Earlier in the day, they sat through three hours of instructions from the judge.
Dymond spent the morning directing them on how to apply the law and assess the evidence in the month-long trial.
Jurors already know Folker is guilty. Just what charge he's guilty of is what they have to decide.
Folker, who will soon turn 43, is charged with second-degree murder in the death of Ann Marie Shirran on July 18, 2010 and interfering with a dead body.

- Convicted murderer's appeal to be heard in September
- Folker appeals murder conviction
- David Folker's lawyers file notice to appeal his conviction on second-degree murder
- 'No sentence can bring her back'
Folker's lawyers have already told the jury he's guilty of manslaughter. He's admitted that Shirran died as a result of a physical altercation between them. He said he grabbed her by the throat and threw her, but didn't mean to kill her.
Folker has also admitted he moved Shirran's body after she died, meaning he's conceded guilt on that charge. For more than three years, Folker lied and denied he had anything to do with it, but made the admission on the second day of the trial.
As a result, the only decision the jury must make is whether Folker intended to kill Shirran or if he knew his actions would lead to her death.
If they decide he did, he should be found guilty of second-degree murder, Dymond said. If not, he added, jurors must find him guilty of manslaughter.
Dymond told them to look at all the evidence to help them determine that and to "use your good, common sense."
He said to consider all the evidence leading up to the offence, including the testimony of the witnesses. He told jurors it's up to them how much weight they give to that evidence, including that of medical experts.
Dr. Simon Avis told the court it was his opinion that after examining Shirran's skeletal remains, she died from blunt force to the head. He said she had two separate fractures to the densest part of her skull. He said a simple fall would not cause such injuries, but couldn't say exactly how much force would be needed.
The defence said one fracture was caused by the initial fall from the altercation. They suggested the second was caused when Folker dropped Shirran on the pavement as he carried her out to the SUV after she died.
Dymond noted that having motive is not necessary in proving second-degree murder.
In assessing the evidence, the jury was instructed not to use Folker's post-offence conduct — or what he did after Shirran died — to prove he intended to murder her.
"What he did after should be given no weight," Dymond said.
"People do things for different reasons. The fact that he lied may have been to cover up the fact he killed Ms. Shirran, not that he intended to kill her."
However, Dymond pointed out that Folker's lies can certainly go towards assessing his credibility.
Overall, the judge reminded the jury that the onus is on the Crown to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Folker intended to kill Shirran.
"David Folker does not have to prove anything," he said.

More good news from the Bush administration. Sending Paul Wolfowitz to the World Bank puts the liberal idealist -- yes, he really is a liberal, according to sources who know him personally -- in a place where he can spend some serious money to support democracy.
The task is daunting, the World Bank is full of problems, the staff there is unsympathetic, and Wolfowitz is a good choice to send a signal that Bush won't be intimidated by anti-globalist, anti-American, anti-semitic ravings about "neo-cons."

How Could She Do It?
Cops Say Lisa Montgomery Killed Bobbie Jo Stinnett for the Baby in Her Womb. But Why?
Indeed, the nation was stunned by the horror of the crime for which Lisa Montgomery, 36, was arrested. Police say that on the afternoon of Dec. 16, Montgomery came to Bobbie Jo's home and strangled the eight-months-pregnant woman, then cut the live child from the dead mother's body. Montgomery, who knew Stinnett from the dog-show circuit, then fled back to Kansas, telling her husband, Kevin, 44, she had just given birth to their child. The crime sparked an Amber Alert and a states-wide manhunt and devastated two families. "Lisa Montgomery has hell to pay," says Hamon. "Bobbie Jo and Zeb had all those plans to live happily ever after—so much hope for the future—and now that's all been wasted and lost forever."
Soft-spoken Bobbie Jo, 23, was an honor student and cheerleader at Nodaway-Holt High School and loved animals. She began breeding rat terriers after graduation, becoming a favorite at dog shows and on rat terrier message boards. "She and her husband, Zeb, were country people who were very happy, and Bobbie was doing what she absolutely loved," says fellow breeder Pat Kennedy. Bobbie Jo and Zeb, a factory worker, had known each other since grade school and married in April 2003. She was thrilled at being pregnant, says Zeb's grandmother Jo Ann Stinnett. " 'What's that?' I asked her [pointing to Bobbie Jo's rising stomach]. She said 'That's our little girl' They were ecstatic."
Montgomery, who lived in Melvern, Kans., had two things in common with Bobbie Jo: She bred rat terriers and also wanted a baby. Although she already had four children with her first husband, Carl Boman, 43, "she was desperate to please Kevin and have a baby with him," says Melvern pastor Mike Wheatly. Though Boman told investigators his ex-wife had her tubes tied in 1990, Montgomery claimed to have had a miscarriage in 2003. By April, she started telling folks she was once again pregnant, even wearing maternity clothes and explaining her flat stomach by saying she never showed much during her pregnancies. Some local residents say they were skeptical, but the ruse fooled Kevin, her husband of four years. "He said he felt the baby kicking," says Wheatly. Montgomery discussed her pregnancy on rat terrier message boards, even saying how difficult it was to take a good photo of her dogs when she couldn't bend. Her due date, she said, was around Dec. 16.
Bobbie Jo, who also discussed her pregnancy online, apparently first met Montgomery in November 2003 at a dog show. On Dec. 15, Montgomery—using the alias Darlene Fischer—allegedly e-mailed Bobbie Jo that she was interested in buying one of her dogs. In their final exchange, Bobbie Jo typed "I've e-mailed you directions so we can meet.... [I] look forward to chatting with you tomorrow morning."
The next afternoon, Bobbie Jo was on the phone with her mother, but the conversation was cut short when a visitor arrived at Bobbie Jo's house. "I've got to go," Bobbie Jo said, according to an FBI affidavit. About an hour later Harper dropped by to discover her daughter lying in a pool of blood. Harper called 911, "terrified and screaming. She said, 'It looked like her intestines had exploded,'" says Nodaway County Sheriff Ben Espey. On the scene minutes later, a paramedic saw the umbilical cord was cut and told Espey the baby was gone. He then realized, "This lady has been murdered because someone came to get the child out of her body."
Investigators quickly mobilized. They noticed Bobbie Jo was clutching strands of blondish-brown hair in both hands and there were no signs of forced entry. They soon focused on Bobbie Jo's e-mail and traced Darlene Fischer's phone number to Kevin Montgomery. On Dec. 17, after parading the infant around Melvern with Kevin, Lisa was arrested at her home. She was charged with kid- napping across state lines resulting in murder and could face the death penalty. The baby, named Victoria Jo by her parents, was healthy. "She has big brown eyes, just like her mother," says Patty Day, Bobbie Jo's grandmother.
Kevin Montgomery sent flowers to Bobbie Jo's funeral, which drew virtually the entire town of Skidmore, and offered condolences to her family, including the baby he briefly thought was his. For now, Victoria Jo is what keeps Zeb Stinnett going". "The baby is his salvation. If he didn't have that baby, he wouldn't have any sunshine in his life at all," says Reverend Hamon. "Zeb will smile again. Bobbie Jo would want him to smile."

Seattle Children's today announced two transformative philanthropic gifts totaling $65 million to benefit pediatric research, nursing education and clinical care. An anonymous donor pledged approximately $50 million of their estate – the largest single gift in Children's 104 year history – to benefit pediatric research at Seattle Children's Research Institute. In addition, Mrs. Jean Reid of Bellevue, Wash., made gift commitments valuing approximately $15 million to support Children's Bellevue Urgent Care Clinic, the advanced training of nurses, and the greatest needs of Children's Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center. In recognition of Mrs. Reid's extraordinary commitment, the Children's Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center will be named the "Robert and Jean Reid Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center" in honor of her and her late husband.
"We are ecstatic," said Jim Ladd, chair of Seattle Children's Hospital Board of Trustees. "Children's has always relied on the community to sustain its mission of caring for all children and finding cures and better treatments. These gifts help ensure Children's can continue this critical work."
$50 Million Anonymous Gift Will Fuel New Discoveries at Seattle Children's Research Institute
Support from charitable donors has helped the Seattle Children's Research Institute catapult to one of the top five pediatric research institutions in the nation. Since its inception, Seattle Children's Research Institute has made significant progress in research that is advancing science and enhancing pediatric medical care. The next steps for the Research Institute are to uncover new treatment options, discover new cures, and save more lives.
Thanks to an anonymous donor, Seattle Children's Research Institute will be able to make an even greater investment in its most promising initiatives through a $50 million estate gift that will endow the research enterprise. The endowment will benefit the greatest needs fund, which enables the Research Institute to provide critical infrastructure, recruit and retain the best and brightest scientists, and invest in early stage medical treatments for childhood disease. This new gift will help Children's push the frontier of pediatric medicine.
$15 Million Commitment Supports Nursing and Eastside Pediatric Clinical Care
Earlier this year, Mrs. Reid pledged $1 million for the staffing needs of the Urgent Care Clinic at Children's Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center. She most recently made an additional estate pledge valuing approximately $14 million to endow the greatest needs of Children's Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center and to support the continuing education of the hospital's nurses. Of Mrs. Reid's estate pledge, 25 percent will support nurses' advanced training needs while 75 percent will fund clinical care priorities of Children's Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center.
Robert and Jean Reid have been very committed to nursing education throughout the years, having supported scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Washington School of Nursing. They also donated to the University of Washington School of Nursing to establish the school's first endowed deanship: the Robert G. and Jean A. Reid Endowed Deanship in Nursing.
Robert Reid, who passed away in January 2011, was a leader in the construction industry on the Eastside and was active in forming the City of Bellevue. The Reids were thrilled to learn about last year's opening of Children's Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center, and its ability to provide Eastside families with easier access to pediatric speciality care. When Mrs. Reid toured the facility, she expressed great admiration for its child- and family-focused design, its efficient and effective healthcare delivery, and how the center's construction incorporated several sustainable principles.
"It is most fitting to name Children's Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center in honor of Robert and Jean Reid. Aside from being pillars of the City of Bellevue, they have demonstrated through their extraordinary philanthropy how deeply committed they are to the health and well being of local families," said Ladd. "We are also extremely grateful to Mrs. Reid for her support of Children's nursing program. Children's nurses are courageous and highly skilled at what they do, performing miracles every day. This gift will give them additional tools to do what they do best – provide the finest care possible to critically-ill children."
Children's Foundation Celebrates 30 Years of Fundraising
These major gifts were first unveiled over the weekend at a Children's "Celebration of Hope" gathering which took place at the Fairmont Hotel. The event, which was attended by 300 friends of Children's, also marked the 30th anniversary of hospital's fundraising division – the Foundation.
"Since its formation in 1982, Children's Foundation has received over $1 billion in gifts and future commitments. This represents all contributions both big and small," said Candy Marshall, vice chair of Seattle Children's Foundation Board of Trustees who emceed the Celebration of Hope event. "Our community has been exceedingly generous to Children's over the years. We are so incredibly grateful for this unwavering support."
Seattle Children's Hospital Guild Association is the largest all-volunteer fundraising network for any hospital in the country, serving as the umbrella non-profit organization for nearly 500 groups consisting of over 7,000 friends, families, co-workers and community members who donate their time and resources to support Seattle Children's. For more than 100 years, the Guild Association has helped support the clinical and research endeavors at Seattle Children's and provided uncompensated care funds so that all children in the region can receive the care they need regardless of their ability to pay. The Guild Association works in tandem with Seattle Children's Hospital Foundation, which gathers community support and fundraising for Seattle Children's Hospital and Seattle Children's Research Institute.

Used instead of "fuck you" and means the same thing, based on the popular song by C-Lo Green.
Steve: "Hey man, nice shirt, what have you had that since you were like 5?"
Matt: "Forget you! This shirt is legendary."
Matt: "Forget you! This shirt is legendary."

In Kagan, Hunter College High Has Another Famous Alumna
Updated at 2:01p.m.
On Monday, President Obama nominated Elena Kagan to become the nation's 112th Supreme Court Justice.
If confirmed, Kagan would become the fourth female justice in the history of the court. She would also become of one of the most well-known alumni of the city's Hunter College High School.
"I'd say Cynthia Nixon is the most famous," said Marge Kolb, 48, the membership coordinator of the school's alumni association. Nixon starred as Miranda in HBO's drama "Sex and the City."
"But Elena is going to be right up there," said Kolb. (Kagan's not even the most famous woman to have grown up in the West 70s – an honor that currently belongs to Lady Gaga, notes our WSJ colleague – and West Side booster – Peter Lattman.)
Founded in 1869, Hunter was an all-girls school with a mission to mold young women into teachers. The school remained an all-female institution until 1974, when a lawsuit by Hunter College Elementary School parents led to what the Daily News described as the "girlie" high school's first class of "freshboys."
Today, the school, located on New York's Upper East Side, is considered one of the nation's best schools.
Kagan's brother, Irving, teaches social studies at the high school. Her mother, Gloria, taught at Hunter College's elementary school.
When Kagan, now 50, graduated in 1977, all her classmates were female, said Kolb. Most of the school's notable alumni are women. If confirmed, Kagan would certainly become the most famous public official in the school's history (take that, Cynthia!) But several others are not far behind.
Shirley Schlanger Abrahamson, a justice for the Supreme Court of Wisconsin graduated from Hunter in 1950 and Phyllis Whitman Beck, class of 1945, was the first woman elected to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Ellen Ash Peters, class of 1947, was the first woman elected to the Connecticut Supreme Court.
That Kagan may join such esteemed legal minds is not surprising to Alexis Gray, 49, a friend and former classmate.
"We always knew she was going to be at the top of something," said Gray. (Daily Intel concurs, noting that Kagan wore a judge's robe in her Hunter yearbook.)
"Even though she had this intense intellect…she was always funny. You could never call her a nerd."
To prove her point, Gray recalled that she and Kagan attended an Elton John concert together as teenagers.
Correction: Due to an error on Hunter College High School's website, an earlier version of this article stated that the school was founded in 1896 as a private school for girls. The school was founded as a public school in 1869. A year later it first opened its doors.

The FOIA generally requires that requesters pay fees for processing their requests. If costs associated with the processing of a FOIA request are $15.00 or less, no fees are charged. Each FOIA request is reviewed for the purpose of placing a requester in one of four fee categories described below.
Your FOIA request should address your willingness to pay fees, offering a limit, or request a waiver of fees (using the outline below). All issues concerning fees associated with the processing of your request need to be resolved before the processing of your request can begin.
The Act provides that "documents shall be furnished without any charge or a reduced charge below the fees established under clause (ii) if disclosure of the information is in the public interest because it is likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations or activities of the government and is not primarily in the commercial interest of the requester. See 5 USC(a)(4)(a)(iii).
The DOE/NNSA has implemented this statutory standard for fee waivers or reduced fees in its FOIA regulation at 10 CFR, Part 1004.9(a). The regulation set forth the following factors that are considered by the agency in applying the criteria:
Per 10 CFR, Part 1004.9a(a)(8)(i), a requester who satisfies the four factors of the public interest prong must then address the second prong by showing that disclosure of the information is not primarily in his or her commercial interest.
In order to explain these requirements in greater detail, the Department of Justice issued a fee waiver policy guidance on April 2, 1987. These guidelines were referenced in the court case McClellan Ecological Supage Situation v. Carlucci, 835 F. 2d, 1282, 1286 (9th Cir. 1987). We also use these guidelines in making fee waiver determinations.

Cambridge native Matt Damon flew home to Boston Wednesday night to extend a personal thank you to doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital for treating his father, Kent, who is currently in remission from the rare blood disease multiple myeloma.
"My family is so grateful for the care you've given us," Damon told the doctors, nurses and researchers honored at the hospital's One Hundred Celebration at the Westin Hotel. "It's deeply humbling to see how many people here are committing their lives to helping others."
"We've lost some close personal friends to cancer in recent years, but I never thought it would happen to my dad, the marathon runner," said Damon, 40, who attended the fundraiser with his father, his wife, Luciana, his stepmother, Celeste, and Bourne Identity co-star Chris Cooper. "It sucked."
Earlier in the evening, Damon's dad playfully ribbed his Oscar-winning son for his overnight success in Hollywood.
"We try not to take this celebrity deal too seriously," said Kent Damon, who recalled his shock at looking at the newspaper in 1997 and seeing his son's Academy Award nomination for Good Will Hunting alongside Hollywood veterans.
"There was a picture of Robert Duvall, Peter Fonda, and Dustin Hoffman – then there was a picture of my 27-year-old son. He didn't belong there with all these seasoned actors!"
The actor's father also drew laughs from the crowd of 850 when he recalled the time Matt was invited to participate in the Major League Baseball All-Star Game in 1999 at Boston's Fenway Park.
"Ted Williams was there, Pedro Martinez, some of the best players who ever played the game," he says. "And then there was Matt, as the celebrity batter."
Joking aside, Kent praised Matt for being a good husband and father to his four daughters, and for being a great son.
"He's all you could ever for ask for in a son," Kent told the crowd. "It's been a wonderful ride being his dad."

Vital Statistics
Latin Name
Dactyloctenium australe
It is planted to stabilise sand both inland and at the coast. LM grass is palatable and is well utilised by animals, although it is not very leafy. LM Grass is known and popular particularly as an evergreen lawn grass for gardens.
LM Grass is a creeping perennial grass which thrives in shade and is the most popular lawn grass in south African gardens. The inflorescence has 2 or 3 spikes at the tip. Leaves are dark green and shiny with sparsely distributed hairs on the margins.
Under natural conditions grows in savanna areas, usually in shade in sandy soil. LM grass is found widely in South Africa - in gardens and in the veld.
January - May.
Field Notes
LM grass is probably named after the colonial name of the capital city of Mozambique, Lorenzo Marques, as it is common across the country. It is now by a number of regional names but the more common commercial name is Berea Grass

MIDDLESEX COUNTY — Reconstruction of several major roads in Middlesex County and protecting more of the Dismal Swamp Conservation Area through open space acquisition top the agenda laid out by the Middlesex County Board of Freeholders for 2014.
The seven-member board held its reorganization meeting Sunday, postponed from Friday due to the snow storm, where Ronald Rios was elected to his first full term as director of the board, two freeholders filling out unexpired terms were sworn in to full three-year terms, and one freeholder was sworn in to a new term.
Rios, who was first elected director in March 2013 when Christopher Rafano resigned to become a judge, was sworn in by U.S. Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ). The meeting was held at Middlesex County College in Edison.
"Middlesex County is ready to seize new opportunities because we are building on a strong past and are not afraid to challenge ourselves to perform even more effectively," Rios said after he was sworn in.
He set the county's agenda for this year, listing as the key initiatives reconstruction and improvements to River Road in Piscataway; Stelton Road through Edison and Piscataway; Route 516 in Old Bridge; and Woodbridge Avenue through Edison and Woodbridge—all major and busy thoroughfares in the county.
Rios said the county plans to introduce a "robust and dynamic" county website where users can complete online payments, register for programs, fill-out grant and program applications, reserve picnic groves, contact elected officials, view freeholder meetings and access resources and assistance through a live chat component.
Other items on the agenda include completing the purchase of the 23-acre Visco property within the environmentally sensitive Dismal Swamp, increasing the county's open space holdings in the conservation area to more than 100 acres; continuing to transform the historic Roosevelt Care Center building into affordable apartments for senior citizens; rehabilitating the Brainerd Lake Dam in Cranbury and constructing the 1.86-mile New Brunswick Bikeway project connecting Rutgers University's Cook and Douglass campuses to its College Avenue campus.
Before Rios spoke, Sheriff Mildred Scott was sworn in to her second term, Kenneth Armwood, who replaced Rafano, and Charles Kenny, both serving unexpired terms, were sworn in to full three-year terms and Blanquita Valenti, was sworn in to her fourth term on the board.
The board, all Democrats, also held a tribute to the late Stephen "Pete" Dalina, of Woodbridge, who died last year. Dalina, first elected in 1990 and the longest-serving freeholder, had announced in the spring he wouldn't run for another term, leaving a vacancy. He died on Oct. 5. Kenny, the Woodbridge council president at the time, was chosen to replace Dalina and was elected to a new term in November.
The tribute included a speech, accompanied by a photo montage, by Woodbridge Mayor John McCormac. Dalina's family attended the event.

Work Study & Student Job Opportunities
What is Federal Work Study?
This is a federally funded program for students who are currently enrolled at Landmark College and are eligible for the program, as determined by the U.S. Department of Education.
The program is designed to give students the ability to earn money toward educational and personal expenses and gain valuable work experience while earning their degree.
Landmark College offers a variety of work opportunities in several departments on campus. A student is notified of eligibility, and the work study amount they can earn, in the financial aid award letter from the Office of Financial Aid. Work Study positions are limited. Not all students who are eligible for the program will be placed in positions. It is the responsibility of the student to complete the required steps to obtain a position on campus. (See How do I get a FWS Job?)
Types of jobs available on campus?
- Library Assistants
- Lab Monitors
- Adventure Education Assistants

Why should I participate in this program?
In this program you can earn money toward your educational expenses, or spending cash to have on campus to use for late night snacks or trips off-campus to hang out with friends. You can also gain valuable work experience that you can share with future employers once you have earned your degree. The FWS program is a great resume builder.
How do I get a FWS job?
At the beginning of the semester the FWS coordinator will upload job descriptions to SharkNet. Check out the job positings and learn more about the program and positions available.
What is the next step?
Students then must follow up with their prospective supervisors listed on the job posting to "interview," and ensure that the position is a good fit for the student. The supervisor and student work together to set up a work schedule and complete a work authorization form. New students typically begin working after the 2nd or 3rd week of classes. Students are encouraged to work only between 3 and 4 hours per week. Students will receive paychecks bi-weekly and may cash their paychecks on campus at the bookstore . Students must complete paperwork with the Human Resources (HR) office. All students need to bring with them to HR is a driver's license, state-issued ID or school ID and a copy of their Social Security card or birth certificate. The student and HR will complete the necessary paperwork, including an I-9 and W-4 form.
Important Information

I'd like to start this week's Ed Bites with a few things for teachers: a New Yorker cartoon that perhaps sounds a bit too familiar. And, the best thing ever, a Ryan Gosling tumblr that compliments teachers on their hard work.
Moving on, Philadelphia Public Schools have had a rough. . . last few decades. In the fall of 2011, Arlene Ackerman, former superintendent, was bought out of her multi-year just-renewed contract with a $900,000 severance package. Then, news hit that she was applying for unemployment. And now, the follow-up — she was denied! Sadly, that doesn't fix the problem. Philadelphia public schools were told that they need to cut spending by $400,000 a day. EEK! Conversely, I appreciated this article on superintendents who are offering to change their position to part-time in an effort to save their districts money. Stands in stark contrast to Ackerman's unemployment benefits request.
Did you hear about the Yale professor who shrunk his class and moved its location so that the students wouldn't have access to wi-fi? Zing! Seriously though, I don't understand how students can feel good about wasting time on the internet during class. In the words of Stephanie Tanner from Full House, HOW RUDE! There's also the one about the college student who ordered a textbook from the internet only to find a bag of cocaine inside. (Fun fact: the book was called Understanding Terrorism: Challenges, Perspectives, Issues.) And lastly, did you hear the one about the Alabama state senator who believes that low teacher salaries are biblically mandated? I can't even.
The interblag is still reeling over President Obama's SOTU last Tuesday. Diane Ravitch wrote a piece that criticizes the paradoxical nature of Obama's stated beliefs about education and the action he takes with Race to the Top and other initiatives. Basically, RttT encourages more testing — it even encourages tying teachers' pay to students' performance on standardized tests — yet, he talks endlessly about his hatred of standardized tests. There is also this (long) piece on The Quick & the Ed which examines the history of campus-based aid programs. It's worth the read, as it contextualizes Obama's calls for reform.
Jay Matthews on the Class Struggle blog of the Washington Post put forward five of the biggest myths in college admission. In my own experience, when applying to a selective college, the first four "myths" are not just true, but also crucial to the admission decision — especially if you are financial aid student. I much prefer the five myths that Andrew Rotherham put forward on his Time blog. Getting rejected from somewhere means absolutely nothing about your quality as a student. This becomes even more true as the school in question becomes more selective.
That's it for today. I could share cute pictures of my roommate's cat and dog with you, but this is an education blog. Or, I could share anyway:

Review Details
Planet Wise Wet/Dry Tote BagProduct Rating: Product Review (submitted on June 30, 2010):
I am happy with this product, the Planetwise Wet/Dry bag. I use it for cloth diapers when heading out for the day or quick trips. The snap on the handle makes it really convenient to attach to a variety of things. It's pretty to look at, and the zippers work well. I do not recommend leaving it full of dirty diapers for more than a day because urine is strong and doesn't take long before the bag starts to smell. Fortunately, it washes well, just throw it in with the cloth diapers and hang to dry (to keep it looking pretty).Would you recommend this product to a friend? Yes

Aging Beatle Ravaged by Gull-Faced Harpy!
At least that's what I glean from this article, whose bias is made clear if only by the photo they chose to use of Mills looking like a gull shrieking for a bite of your hot dog.
She was able to wrangle more than 20 million pounds, which in American money is about nineteen billion dollars, which is so much money that I imagine her prosthetic leg will soon be replaced by a staff of crystal, jet-leg, or simply be fashioned out of thousand dollar bills.
And how did she manage that? First, by pissing off the judge, who called her "less than candid," "unreasonable and exorbitant" and "a bitch on wheels."
She also claimed to give 80 to 90 percent of her income to charity each year—and thus be stone cold broke—when in fact "her tax returns disclose no charitable giving at all." Hey, she's just like me! Except for her being a huge bitch, of course.
Mills then attempted to silence court documents that would reveal her as, you know, a bitch, called the 70,000 dollar a year childcare payment she'll be receiving "inadequate," and threw water on Paul McCartney's lawyer.
Headlines like "Money Can't Buy Her Love" were inevitable, although I imagine there are a few other Beatles covers Paul is humming to himself these days:
When not blogging for Cracked, Michael moves into the finals of the Youtube Sketchies II contest as head writer and co-founder of Those Aren't Muskets! Thanks to all who voted for us!

http://Snurl.com/SportsBet Click Here I took the plunge and bought Sports Betting Champ after i had checked out the site and checked that I could get my money back if i wasn't happy. That was a few months back now. there is a lot of hype on the web about this sports betting site. I found after using sports betting champ for a few months, and understanding how the betting system works (there not just straight picks) that I was definitely ahead and making some great betting profits. A lot of other people on the web are saying that sports betting champ is great and i can't agree more. Those people that post videos and stuff on the web saying negative things about sports betting champ haven't even tried it! Bottom line. I bought it, i followed it , i made some good profits from my sports betting. Sports betting champ is definitely worth your time....it really DOES work! Check it out. Anyway guys, I'll catch you later. :-)

Affordable Reds
by genevieve robertson on Aug 24, 2004
One of my favorite finds of late is the Liberty School 2001 Cabernet ($10.00 @ The Wine Club, 953 Harrison). Out of Paso Robles, it is the second label for Treana Winery. The Cabernet was extremely lush, like sun-warmed blackberries smashed against the roof of your mouth. But it keeps your tongue guessing with the added depth of dried herbs and leather. Great with a porterhouse or just for sipping.
L de Lyeth is an offshoot of the Lyeth label that is quite well known for its Meritage blends. This second label is focused on both showcasing the individual varietals that make up the Meritage blends as well as keeping them very affordable. The 2001 Merlot ($8.00 @ The Wine Club, 953 Harrison) is rich and dark with flavors of black plum, blackberries, and a hint of cocoa powder on the finish. Certainly big enough for any steak you throw its way.
After enjoying Steven Vincent's Pinot Noir (see the past wine column, "Bring Your Own Bottle") so much, I didn't hesitate to sip a bit of the 2001 Merlot ($10.00 @ Amphora, 384 Hayes). It was a little lighter than expected, but still full of juicy black plums with a bit of unexpected heat on the finish. A great versatile food wine, heavy enough for lamb, but it won't overshadow pasta either.
