Can you define these popular missing words?
I am Chinese and my husband is white, so instead of calling him baby or babe, I called him Beibei as Baobei means Baby in Chinese, and Beibei is also a very common pet or puppy name in China because my husband thinks he is a puppy sometimes.
You are the best beibei in the world!

As the first week of the Miami Dolphins' training camp gets close to its end, we've already seen a handful of things from the 2013 squad. Some of those things have been promising; some haven't.
Indeed, let's address those troubling issues first. No, Ryan Tannehill and Mike Wallace don't appear to have truly solidified their rapport yet. Yes, the offensive line has been the victim of the superior defensive line. No, Dion Jordan hasn't seen much action at all yet. No, Lamar Miller hasn't been electric yet.
And while you may worry about all of these happenings, especially as that familiar feeling of early disappointment creeps back into your mind, remember this: There is absolutely no reason to panic.
These issues are to be expected during the first week of training camp with a team comprised of so many new faces. Tannehill and Wallace will find that magic chemical reaction soon enough. The offensive line will toughen. Jordan will get his reps. Miller will have time to shine. These guys haven been in pads for two days. Real football is still distant on the horizon. Take a deep breath.
With that out of the way, we can focus on the good things we've seen. Pressing forward, here are the three most encouraging signs from Miami's training camp so far.

Many clients have asked me in the past as to whether I recommend glass top stoves or coil top stoves for rental units? At first glance one might think that the obvious choice would be whatever is more economical. After all, we are talking about a rental unit right? Like anything, we must consider the pros and cons of each. Let's start with coil top stoves: The main reason many landlords go with coil top stoves is certainly because they are less expensive than their glass top counterparts. Another reason some landlords may like coil top stoves is the ease of which coil burners (heating elements) may be replaced. With this said, anyone who has replaced coil burners knows that the costs can certainly add up upon replacing several burners. Furthermore, a main reason why these burners go bad is because of neglect, overuse, & abuse. For example, often times boiling contents spill over a pot and on to the coils themselves thus burning the wiring connecting the elements. Once this happens, it is quite likely that you will either need to have the stove serviced by a professional or replaced entirely. Lastly, it is safe to see that the appearance of a coil top stove is certainly not as nice or clean as a glass top stove.
Now, for glass top stoves: As previously mentioned, glass top stoves certainly have an overall better appearance than coil top stoves. With this said, you may also expect to pay anywhere from $50 + more on a glass top stove as compared to a coil top stove. It has been my experience though that the glass top stoves hold up better to the abuse than the coil top stoves. A major reason for this is because of the sealed nature of the cooking elements since they sit beneath the glass. You can be guaranteed that your typical tenant will not pay too much attention to the care of any coil cooking elements since after all, it is not their responsibility.
As a multifamily property owner myself, I made the switch from coil top to glass top stoves about 4 years ago. I can tell you that this has turned out to be a wise move. My tenants have been quite pleased with them & it also makes the kitchen appear to be more updated.
I hope you find this post helpful & feel free to continue sending me any questions or topics that you would like me to cover on this site.

WARREN - A judge warned a Mineral Ridge couple that their heroin addiction was at the root of their crime spree and he would only give them one final chance before threatening them with seven years behind bars.
Geri L. Balch, 23, wept and her husband Ricky Snyder, 32, tried to hide from photographers as Trumbull County Common Pleas Judge W. Wyatt McKay sentenced both Wednesday to five years intensive supervised probation that includes drug and alcohol testing.
The probation is preceded by 60 days in Trumbull County Jail and a five- to six-month stint in the NorthEast Ohio Community Alternative Program, a multi-county work release program.

Geri L. Balch, 23, cries on Wednesday as she is sentenced to intensive probation for stealing more than $200,000 worth of jewelry from a home on Country Club Drive N.E. last year.
McKay also ordered each defendant to pay half the cost of the jewelry they stole last year from a home where Balch was working as a housekeeper. The price tag on restitution was $106,000 each. But McKay even reminded the victims in the case it was doubtful that the figure would ever be paid completely.
''It was a long 13 months of patience with the justice system. I just wonder why they can't prosecute the buyers of the jewelry they stole,'' said Alda Lee Battista, whose family operates Gene's Jewelers on North Park Avenue.
Balch worked as a housekeeper for Battista in the family's Country Club N.E. home, and the family ended up setting up security cameras inside the home after they suspected the thefts.
''At one point she said she had to leave early and she brought her husband in to finish some work,'' Battista said. ''I know they have at least one child.''
A search warrant at the couple's Mineral Ridge home was used to recover some of the merchandise after the Oct. 17 theft that included seven necklaces, sets of earrings, eight bracelets and a jewelry box containing other pieces.
''If you watch the video, you can see (Balch) ignoring one jewelry box that included costume jewelry. She went right to a hat box where the other stuff was kept,'' said Patricia Fleeger, current owner-manager of the downtown jewelry shop.
Fleeger and Battista said they have reason to believe some of the pieces still missing were broken apart and the valuable stones were sold off elsewhere. They said some of the pieces are believed to be in Texas.
Both defendants pleaded guilty in July to theft from an elderly person, a second-degree felony. Each had been out on bond undergoing a pre-sentence investigation.

Data retention bill defeated in Australia
Mandatory haul halted
MOVES TO MONITOR COMMUNICATIONS DATA in Australia have been blocked, for now.
According to the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), security agencies downunder have been clamouring to get their hands on communications data belonging to Australian citizens, but have been thwarted.
This means that Australians should be spared the worst excesses of snooping governments and agencies, and be spared from living in the dark shadows of programmes like PRISM and the Snoopers' Charter.
"Australia's security agencies have been pushing for the mandatory retention of the communications data of every citizen. If implemented, this policy would require private companies to keep communications metadata of all customers for two years. Essentially, it treats every person as a criminal suspect," said the EFF in a statement.
"Yesterday, a parliamentary committee issued a report declining to recommend data retention and strongly criticizing the government for failing to adequately explain and justify its proposal. In the wake of the report, the governing Labor Party announced it will not pursue data retention before the next election. So data retention in Australia has been defeated, for now."
According to the EFF Australians are firmly attached to their privacy rights, and 99 percent of them were opposed the idea of government data retention in a poll last summer.
Their concerns were heard by the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Intelligence and Security, and yesterday the committee delivered its report (PDF). It said that it could not support data retention plans that would store communications information for as long as two years.
Data would have included IP addresses, telephone numbers, the duration of calls and location information.
"The potential data retention regime attracted a large amount of criticism and comment from organisations and concerned individuals. These organisations and individuals generally considered any potential data retention regime a significant risk to both the security of their information, and their privacy. In addition to these general comments, the Committee received a large volume of form letter correspondence," said the report.
"Conversely, the data retention regime received a high level of support from law enforcement and national security agencies. These agencies largely argued that data retention was necessary for them to maintain their current capabilities into the future."
Opponents includes the Australian Pirate Party, broadband outfit Iinet, the Law Council of Australia, the Human Rights Law Centre and The Australian Institute of Public Affairs.
The Victoria Privacy Commissioner Dr Anthony Bendall, is quoted as likening the plans to those of a police state, while Australian Greens Senator Scott Ludlam said that effectively it placed a guilty mark on all internet users. ISPs including Vodafone chimed in to speak up about the scale and cost of the plans.
There is support from local law enforcement agencies, but it has the minority of the quoted voices. The committee did not move in its favour.
"A mandatory data retention regime raises fundamental privacy issues, and is arguably a significant extension of the power of the state over the citizen. No such regime should be enacted unless those privacy and civil liberties concerns are sufficiently addressed," it said.
The committee added that if the plans were to go ahead then they should be reported on annually and operate in the open. µ

More than a thousand pro-life protesters showed up outside the Colorado State Capital for an April 15 protest of what some were calling the most anything-goes pro-abortion bill in history. And, the initiative paid off, as the Colorado Senate on April 16 killed the controversial bill that could have banned all pro-life laws in the state. As usual, the media has kept this pro-life victory a deep, dark secret. They're too busy supporting the pro-abortion crowd and the exterminating of babies. Good news like this does not fit the bill. For once, though, we get good news out of Colorado.

Check out this Domino's menu (Peddar Road, Mumbai):
No?? Got an eye problem?? ( I was told this is RUDE!! )
Go back to the image again. Stare at it, PLEASE!!!
Do you see it now??
Well, this is what I see:
What I see is a brilliant, amazing implementation of irrational pricing, basis pure impulse.
Look at the top of the menu where a 7" Margherita costs Rs. 75.
If you go for the 10" Margherita, it costs Rs. 170!!
(Oh, the Strikeouts represent a mistake in my calculations). See the note and the end of the post.
Technically, a 10 inch pizza in size is 43 % more than the 7 inch pizza.
But cost-wise, Rs. 170 is 126% more than Rs. 75 !!!!
In fact, if I buy 2 Domino's pizzas of 7 inches each, I get 14 inches of pizza and pay Rs. 150; but I need to pay Rs. 170 to get only 10 inches!!
Look further - If I buy 3 pizzas of 7 inches each, I get 21 inches to enjoy and pay Rs. 225; whereas 13 inches as a single pizza costs me Rs. 315!!!
This proves that:
- Consumers are completely irrational when it comes to making pricing decisions when they see choices.
- The choose the size they want, not the price.
- Then, they just 'accept' the price presented to them!
- Create a 'need based' pricing matrix - not a volume or input based pricing structure. Notice how the Inches (") printed, is the smallest font on the menu!
- By presenting lots of variations and choices, the human mind migrates to what it wants. It does not look at alternative options when one choice seems logical:
To elaborate - if the 2 of us are eating a pizza, we may call for a medium pizza and share it.
Instead, we should call for 2 separate pizzas and also give away a few extra inches to some friends!
We would've saved money and made someone happy too!
- Don't get too scientific about pricing. Get fuzzy, irrational and emotional. It works!!!
Hope I have whetted your brain's appetite!!
Correction and additional note
So, I erred when I assumed that the Pizza size as 7" without considering the area of a pizza and how its size should really be calculated.
I was STUPID, SILLY, AN IGNORAMUS and got beaten to death on facebook :-(
Having said that, I calculated the 'cost per pizza inch' of all the sizes and all the varieties, and guess what??!!
The pricing is DEFINITELY Irrational, but may not be wildly so.
In the case of the Veg. pizzas, the cost goes UP as you buy larger sizes, whereas in the case of the Non. Veg pizzas, the cost comes DOWN (for bigger sizes)...
Views: 11430
I protest. They are unfair to veggies. Barring one non-veg, other non-veg items are show correct trend (though not enough)
Price reduction on higher diameters is either not there or if there is highly inadequate
One point that the post misses completely is that most offers are generally associated with Medium and Large pizzas only (you can get one medium pizza free with one pizza or Garlic Bread and so on). So, its not irrational pricing after all :)
Of course some customers won't care and buy all --- which is a bonus!
Interesting..even after the revised one!
So the price per inch increases as you go higher in size. Ideally it should go down.
But I am not sure whether ordering 2 regular is more economical than one medium. By ordering two 7 inches are you really getting 4 inch extra if you ordered one 10 inches?
Can anyone throw more light on this?
You can add another element to your calculations to make it more 'realistic'. The only reason I choose a medium-sized pizza over a small-sized pizza is that I can use the coupon 'One pizza free with a mid-sized pizza of same or lesser value'; this coupon isn't valid for small pizzas. For Veg 1, the price per inch is 3.25 (for a medium sized pizza), which falls to 1.625 after using the coupon. Nothing beats this price.
There's a reason why this coupon isn't valid for the small-sized pizza.
Also, there are certain add-ons (example the delicious cheeze-burst) that cannot be added onto a small pizza.
I think it has to do with number of people eating also. Generally when you are eating alone you are more cost conscious than when you are eating out with friends or family.
Also based on my experience food outlets base their price on competition; in most of the cases this will be some other food item served by another kind of outlet- it could be a meal, a burger or dosa as very rarely there will be two different pizza brands having outlets closeby.
Overall, this is similar to what happens in US.
buy a small glass of coke at $1.5 and a large one at $2.25.
Unlimited refills. :-)
(rates given above are just illustrative).
Adding another perspective, 2 small pizzas have a larger circumference of bread and less cheese/topping than the large. So if you assume that 0.62 (the break even) inches of pizza circumference is wasted as bread (that you normally do not enjoy in a pizza), you break even at the 0.62 inch mark for a simply veg pizza.
You're confusing non-linearity and non-uniformity with irrationality. Maybe they have sales statistics that show larger pizzas are more popular among non-vegetarians, or that non-vegetarians are more likely to upgrade based on lower per-inch price, or party orders (generally for large pizzas) are most often for non-veg, or ....
Whatever it may be, we can't say it is irrational unless we see what research went behind this pricing model.
Very interesting. Forget price/inch
75 Rs serves 1 , then with 300 I should be able to serve 4 (4*75) but if I go for a large pizza I need to shell out 315 Rs. You can include cost structure , revenue structure and whatever.. but from the consumer point of view it just plain does not make any sense.
I totally agree Alok.Pricing decisions do not stem out of rational / logical thinking always. IMO it all depends on the needs / value proposition for the buyer.
Example: A shampoo sachet of 3 ml may cost as low as Rs. 1/- or 2/- . But the same brand bottle of 100ml cost around Rs. 60.
Rationally, its double the price, but what the shampoo manufacturers do not tell us is the difference in viscosity and probably the quality that comes in sachet, in the same brand, under the same product range !!!
Just to add another dimension, a human one. two seven inchers will give you 8 slices. one 10 incher will give you 6. And one 13 incher gives you about 8-10 depending on who cuts it.
When you share pizzas - who doesn't - people eat by the slice, and count how much they ate by the slice. So it's a little cheaper to order 7 inchers usually. (But mathematically this screws things up once you get beyond 8-9 people)
The other problem is that relatively since the edges of pizzas puff up similarly you seem to get lesser toppings per slice in a smaller pizza than in a larger one. But this will differ from vendor to vendor - most now only put a process-controlled number of toppings on the pizza rather than make it look filled up. (I use smaller pizza outlets, the non-Dominos types - who don't do that)
We had an informative discussion in our MBA classes regarding the way consumers react.One of our profs had done a detailed analysis on the price variations between sachets(Mainly 1 re packs), medium packs( 10 to 20 bucks) and the bigger wholesale pack.The results were surprisingly contrary to what we have been told since ages that buying wholesale would be cheaper.This was there for all the products except 2 or 3. But I would say that there is more to the story than consumer irrationality. If you actually look at the chocolate packs etc they come in very weird sizes.Go check some bar rather than the regular 100,150 or 200 gms they come in weird figures of 98 gms etc. And since we are being served this surreptitiously since a long time we stop questioning them.Like the dominno's case.

Oscar Pistorius might not have a career in running after his murder trial finishes, but perhaps he could pursue one in acting. A South African newspaper columnist is claiming that the disgraced Olympian, whose crying fits and vomiting have become regular occurrences at his trial, took acting classes to help him appear more sympathetic to the court.
Jani Allen, a former columnist for the South African Sunday Times, wrote last week that a so-called reliable source told her that the "Blade Runner" had been coached by one his friends. She doubled down on the claims yesterday in an interview with a British newspaper, saying she has it on "very good authority that Oscar is being coached on his court performance by a close actor friend, who is also famous in South Africa."
Pistorius is accused of murdering his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp at their South African home last year. The prosecution says he killed her in anger following an argument, while Pistorius claims he mistook her for an intruder.
The trial resumes May 5; Pistorius could face 25 years in prison if found guilty. Jordan Valinsky
For the first time in its history, The Arizona Republic newspaper is supporting a Democrat over a Republican for president, endorsing Hillary Clinton.
In an editorial published Tuesday night, the board said Clinton, not Donald Trump, understands that the "challenges the United States faces domestically and internationally demand a steady hand, a cool head, and the ability to think carefully before acting." Clinton not only has the "temperament and experience to be president," but she knows how to "compromise and to lead with intelligence, decorum, and perspective," the editorial says. For decades, Clinton has withstood "scrutiny so intense it would wither most politicians," including some attacks that "strain credulity," while Trump "hasn't even let the American people scrutinize his tax returns, which could help the nation judge his claims of business acumen." The board goes on to tick off several of Trump's "demeaning comments" about women, a disabled reporter, and POWs, saying they prove he has a "stunning lack of human decency, empathy, and respect."
When it comes to immigration, Arizona "went down the hardline immigration road Trump travels," the editorial says, and it earned the state "international condemnation and did nothing to resolve real problems with undocumented immigration." The editorial board does believe Clinton has made some "serious missteps," like the use of a private email server while secretary of state, but she "does not casually say things that embolden our adversaries and frighten our allies" and is the "superior choice" to Trump, who "responds to criticism with the petulance of verbal spit wads." Read the entire editorial at The Arizona Republic. Catherine Garcia
Shimon Peres, the ninth president of Israel and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in negotiating the Oslo Accords, died Tuesday. He was 93.
Peres suffered a stroke two weeks ago, and was on a respirator at a hospital near Tel Aviv when his health quickly declined and he died, the official Israel News Agency reports. During his long career in politics, Peres — who in 1934 emigrated at age 11 from Poland to British Mandate Palestine — held almost every significant position in the Israeli government. He was first elected to parliament in 1959, and had two brief turns as prime minister.
Peres served a seven-year term as president from 2007 to 2014, and argued for a two-state solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He was a key player in putting together the Oslo Accords, and was jointly awarded the Nobel prize in 1994 with Yitzhak Rabin, the Israeli prime minister at the time, and Yasser Arafat, chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization. Peres, who received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Obama in 2012 and founded the Peres Center for Peace, is survived by his wife, Sonya, and three children. Catherine Garcia
More than 84 million Americans watched Monday night's debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, and thousands of miles away in a secret location somewhere in Afghanistan, so did leaders of the Taliban.
A spokesman for the militant organization, which has killed thousands of people during two decades of violence, told NBC News they were "very interested in watching," but said there was "nothing of interest to us in the debate as both of them said little about Afghanistan and their future plans for the country." Zabihullah Mujahid also gave his opinion on Trump, declaring he says "anything that comes to his tongue" and is "non-serious." Catherine Garcia
On Tuesday, President Obama nominated Jeffrey DeLaurentis as the first U.S. ambassador to Cuba in more than a half-century.
Since 2014, when the U.S. Embassy in Havana reopened, DeLaurentis has been the country's chief diplomat in Cuba, but he's able to get a promotion to ambassador now that the diplomatic freeze is over. "Jeff's leadership has been vital throughout the normalization of relations between the United States and Cuba, and the appointment of an ambassador is a common-sense step forward toward a more normal and productive relationship between our two countries," Obama said in a statement.
DeLaurentis must be confirmed by the Senate in a simple majority, but some senators, including Cuban-American Republicans Marco Rubio of Florida and Ted Cruz of Texas, have both said they will oppose any ambassador named by Obama. "A U.S. ambassador is not going to influence the Cuban government, which is a dictatorial and closed regime," Rubio said Tuesday. "This nomination should go nowhere." Catherine Garcia
The next time you have a kidney stone, don't go to the doctor or stay home in excruciating pain — head to your local amusement park.
After hearing from patients who said their kidney stones passed without pain after going for a ride on Big Thunder Mountain at Disney World, researchers at Michigan State University decided to conduct a test. Using a 3D printer, they created silicone models and put in kidney stones of various sizes, then took them for a ride. The scientists say even the largest stones were dislodged after two or three rides, and sitting in the back was more effective than being in the front.
Dr. Clayton Lau, a urologist at City of Hope in Duarte, California, told ABC Los Angeles the bumpiness of a roller coaster likely does not create enough turbulence to pass a stone, and the rush of adrenaline probably causes movement in the ureter, helping propel the stones. The researchers say their models show the stones did pass all the way after at least one ride, and suggest that people who are prone to getting kidney stones go for regular rides to keep them at bay. Lau doesn't see thrill ride therapy becoming the next big thing, saying, "I think that's the last thing you want to do when you're in pain is jump on a roller coaster," but ask any patient and even while hurting, they might choose Disneyland over the doctor's office.

Wells Fargo is opening an independent investigation into the company's retail banking practices, following the revelation that employees trying to meet sales targets opened as many as 2 million phony accounts for customers without their knowledge, the firm announced Tuesday.
During the investigation, Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf will not receive a salary and will forfeit equity awards valued at around $41 million. Carrie Tolstedt, the former head of retail banking, has also left Wells Fargo, and will not receive a severance package. The firm says it has fired 5,300 people, mostly low-level employees, in connection with the fraudulent practices, and has paid a $190 million fine. It also will eliminate sales goals in retail banking on Jan. 1, 2017. Catherine Garcia
On Tuesday, Syrian government troops and allies attempting to take over the rebel-held side of Aleppo stepped up their ground attacks in the Old City.
The move comes after the collapse of a ceasefire, backed by the United States, after just one week, and the U.S. says it's proof Syrian President Bashar al-Assad will do anything to defeat the opposition, ignoring the peace process. Over the past week, hundreds of people in Aleppo have been killed in bombings, including 12 members of two families on Tuesday. It's thought that more than 250,000 people live in the besieged part of Aleppo, with only 30 doctors remaining to take care of the hundreds of people wounded daily.
Before the civil war began nearly six years ago, Aleppo was the biggest city in Syria. The army has control of the western zone, and soldiers and militia fighters supporting Assad told Reuters they are starting to move in armored vehicles and tanks for more attacks against rebels.

Gannon athletic director Richard to leave for University of Montevallo
Gannon University athletic director Mark Richard resigned Thursday, the school announced, and will take the same position next month at University of Montevallo in Alabama.
Like Gannon, Montevallo competes in NCAA Division II athletics.
Richard, a native of Meadville and a 1983 graduate of Clarion, served five years at Gannon after working at Auburn as the senior associate director of athletics for team support.
He also worked at Florida, Vanderbilt and UNLV. Richard was a candidate for an athletic director job at Jacksonville, Ala., in 2011.
The Montevallo position opened in early April.
Gannon officials said an interim athletic director will be appointed as the search for Richard's successor begins.
Richard was hired in 2009 to replace Bill Elias. Interim athletic director Don Sherman filled in for Elias, who since has returned to Gannon.
"My time at Gannon has been a fulfilling part of my career," Richard said. "Having the opportunity to work with great student-athletes and dedicated coaches and staff has been an opportunity that I will never forget."
Richard is the father of three daughters, Mackenzie Margaret (13), Hope Elliott (6) and Nicole Rene (6). He cited Montevallo as similar to Gannon.
"The University has a reputation for strong academics and a commitment to a dynamic student experience,'' Richard said Thursday on the Montevallo web site.
Gannon athletics has excelled under Richard's leadership, finishing among the top 20 percent of the nation's NCAA Division II athletics programs in the final 2012-13 NCAA D-II Learfield Sports Directors' Cup Standings.

Faculty Research Support Program, 2010-2011
The Faculty Research Support Program is designed to assist tenure track faculty at Ohio University in carrying out their research, scholarship and creative activities. It is expected that faculty who are currently funded on grants support their associated costs for publication and related travel when the sponsor guidelines and funded award budget permits these expenses. Faculty are encouraged to include such expenses in proposals submitted for external funding. Should the external funding agency limit the amount that can be spent, the Faculty Research Support Program can help pick up the difference. Faculty who are not presently funded should make the most use of this program. Research Scientists who do not hold a tenure track appointment must contact the Vice President for Research for special permission to be considered.
This year's program allocation is $14,000. Once the account is exhausted, no additional funding will be provided for a given fiscal year. Requests will not be rolled over to the next fiscal year. Please refer to the rules below to determine what are allowable and unallowable costs. Given the modest amount of funds available, it is likely the fund will become exhausted. Thus, the program works on a first come first served basis.

West Suburban PADS launches Street Outreach Program with
mental health services provider Thresholds
Maywood, IL – West Suburban PADS today announced formation of a Street Outreach & Engagement Team in partnership with Chicago-based Thresholds, targeting individuals and families in Oak Park who have lost their housing and are living in places not meant for human habitation (e.g. in parks, forest preserves or cars).
The Alliance to End Homelessness in Suburban Cook County reported in its 2011 bi-annual "point-in-time homeless count" that 74 persons were living on the streets in and around Oak Park on the night of – more than the number staying in PADS' emergency shelter on the same night.
"Our goal is to expedite the transition from homelessness to stable, permanent housing," says Lynda Schueler, executive director of West Suburban PADS, which operates four supportive housing programs. "We're connecting with people who are not aware of -- or not willing to connect with -- the services available to them. By getting them off the street, linked to services and engaged in case management, we help them shift their focus from daily survival to the resolution of long-term needs."
Mark Ishaug, Chief Executive Officer of Thresholds, a recovery services provider for persons with mental illness, says, "The outreach process can take weeks or even months of sustained relationship-building efforts. We connect with this unserved population by establishing a visible presence and contact routines at various times of day and evening, providing sack lunches and personal care items, and conducting assessments."
Financial support for the outreach team's daily expenditures (e.g. lunches) and contributions of transportation passes, bottled water and hand warmers are welcome, and can be dropped off at the Oak Park River Forest Area Walk-In Ministry, a social services organization that provides access to resources that help mitigate the factors that contribute to urgent financial strain and/or homelessness (http://www.walk-in-ministryoprf.org/index.html). Please mark donations for "West Suburban PADS."
The Chicago Community Trust provided seed funding for West Suburban PADS' outreach staff, which covers a 20-community service area; the Oak Park Community Mental Health Board funds Thresholds' portion of the Oak Park team.
West Suburban PADS is the only agency whose sole purpose is to end homelessness in Cook County's 20 near-west suburban communities. West Suburban PADS offers programming in five areas: shelter, housing, supportive services, employment readiness and prevention. For more information: www.westsuburbanpads.org, www.facebook.com/wspads and on Twitter @westsubPADS.
Established in 1959, Thresholds is the oldest and largest provider of recovery services for persons with severe mental illness in Illinois. Thresholds utilizes evidence-based practices and thoughtful supports to treat the whole person rather than just the disease. Thresholds offers 25 innovative programs at 70+ locations throughout Chicago, the adjacent suburbs, and McHenry and Kankakee Counties. Last year, Thresholds served 6,100 adults and youth, with 75% of services delivered out in the community.

USB Card, no sounds
Hi, Is there a way to make a USB soundcard working. I tried to configure it with an alsa upgrade, but there's always an error message ending the process. Do I need a complementary module, like a hotplug for connections. In theory, my card is supposed to work with Kernel 2.6.22, but not detected unless I use Gnome 2.20. Sometimes it says that I'm missing the Gstreamer codec. Thanks.
In Jack
I tried your suggestion lately. Still Jack can't get starting with the USB card. By the way, I have to mention that I could install Alsa-driver 1.0.15, but not Alsalib, that still give error when compiling. I there any other ways to update drivers ? The module I need is usb-audio and usb-caiaq. Thanks The error message from Jack : playback device hw:0 capture device hw:0 apparent rate = 44100 frames per period = 256 control device hw:0 15:00:15.503 JACK was stopped successfully. 15:00:15.503 Post-shutdown script... 15:00:15.503 killall jackd jackd: aucun processus tué 15:00:15.720 Post-shutdown script terminated with exit status=256. 15:00:17.481 Could not connect to JACK server as client. Please check the messages window for more info. Cannot connect to server socket (Connexion refusée) Cannot connect to server socket Cannot connect to the server 15:02:36.239 MIDI connection graph change. 15:02:36.389 MIDI active patchbay scan... 15:02:56.042 MIDI connection graph change. 15:02:56.088 MIDI active patchbay scan...
It's jacked!
Ok, if it shows up in jack (and you can play sound to it via jack) you could try to configure your usb card as device 0 - see the user FAQ number 10 Your first two lines will then be: alias snd-card-0 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=0 add the other devices trailing this one. Card-0 is the default playback device for normal alsa stuff, and this should do the trick Let us know, Cheers
The card is in the list of compatible soundcards on the alsa website. For automatic detection,under Ubuntu, it says missing the right Gstreamer files. In 64 Studio, except in Jack, the card doesn't show up in the sound panel. My configuration ; NI Kore I USB soundcard (audio and midi fonctions) 64 Studio (32bits) Intel Core duo 2.13 Ghz MainBoard - MSI 945GM3 Series 2000 mb RAM
USB support
Hi sirven, What USB device are you using? If it is a properly designed device, it should be class compliant, and then the device should be picked up by the system hotplug automatically.

Even though the NFL will bump up the number of games it plays in London from two to three beginning next year, don't expect a Super Bowl to be played there any time soon.
While league commissioner Roger Goodell said he's pleased with the way the league's games in England have gone he told NFL.com the Super Bowl won't be played in a city that doesn't have a franchise.
This season's Super Bowl will be played Feb. 2 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, home of the Jets and Giants. Super Bowl sites have been determined through the 2015-16 season.
Goodell told the website that the league's long-term plan is to have a franchise in both London and Los Angeles.
"We don't have a timetable for (a London franchise), " Goodell said, according to the website. "We want to continue building interest, and if it continues to go well, we believe a franchise could be here."
In this year's second London game, the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars, 42-10 on Sunday.

The Aiken Branch of the American Association of University Women reached a milestone in its history during the spring. March 25 was the organization's 60th anniversary.
"We've been talking about it all year," said Martha Ebel, who shares the Aiken Branch's presidential duties with Linda Hook.
The Aiken Branch is known locally for its wildly popular Books 'n' Things sale. Held the first weekend in March, the event attracts scads of people who enjoy reading and love to find bargains.
"This year we raised nearly $40,000," Ebel said.
But while Books 'n' Things attracts a lot of attention, it isn't the only notable item on the Aiken Branch's long list of activities and accomplishments.
"We were instrumental in establishing USC Aiken," Ebel said. "Some of our members began the Monday night music program (the Hopelands Summer Concert Series) at Hopelands Gardens. We established a teen pregnancy prevention program in Aiken, and during the 1970s, we sponsored a group of women that came over from Russia to learn about education and women's issues in America."
The AAUW promotes equality and education for women and girls. The Aiken Branch held its first meeting on March 25, 1953. Twenty women representing 18 universities attended that inaugural gathering. Today, the Aiken Branch has approximately 50 members, including one man.
"Our branch is a leader in South Carolina in contributing to the national AAUW Educational Foundation," Ebel said. "We have a scholarship at USC Aiken, and we give money to Aiken Technical College. We also give money to organizations in Aiken that promote women and are important in education."
The Aiken Branch will observe its 60th anniversary on Saturday during its fall luncheon at the Woodside Plantation Country Club.
"We've been so busy doing other things that we didn't have time to stop and celebrate until now," Ebel said.
South Carolina's AAUW president, Ann Terry, is scheduled to attend.
"She is bringing a letter from our national president, Patricia Fae Ho," Ebel said.
Membership in the AAUW is open to anyone who holds a two-year associate degree or higher degree from an accredited college or university.
For more information on the Aiken Branch, visit www.aauwaikenbranch.org or call Ebel at 803-648-5227.
"We are always looking for new members, and we're always on the lookout for an empty big box store space for our Books 'n' Things sale," she said. "We never know from year to year where we're going to have to sale. You would think that there would be plenty of empty spaces. But many of the buildings' owners don't want to commit because they don't want to miss a potential buyer or renter, so it's a little tough to find one sometimes."
Dede Biles is a general assignment reporter for the Aiken Standard and has been with the newspaper since January 2013. A native of Concord, N.C., she graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Thanks to Terror Drome member SolidSnakeEyes for pointing out that the forthcoming Rise of Cobra "City Strike" Snake Eyes & Duke, Jungle Assault Ripcord, Desert Viper, and Arctic Threat Storm Shadow have hit eBay thanks to eBay seller sicdunbine. This version of Snake Eyes uses the much sought after Resolute Snake Eyes head, body and gear, but the rest of the figures appear to be kit bashes of existing characters. Anyone looking to pick one up a little early, here's your chance since we still do not have any official word as to when it will be released.

You may feel like opening yourself up to others which could bring you to a greater level of intimacy both with yourself and with another person today. While it may seem difficult at first, if you can learn to trust yourself and your feelings, you may in turn find that it is easier to trust other people. Maybe this would be a good time to work first on creating a warm, loving and accepting attitude for yourself. If you can, you might visualize another version of yourself standing across from you. As you see this person in your mind's eye, think about what you love and cherish about them. Imagine yourself accepting everything about this person into your life with a warm heart. Once you are able to do so, you can repeat this exercise with those who are closest to you today. This may help you to truly open your heart and embrace others more deeply and completely.
Being able to trust and love others is an extension of our ability to accept ourselves unconditionally. For some of us it can seem easier to reach out to other people and offer ourselves fully to them, but unless we have the same relationship with ourselves, our love is not really as pure and total as it could be. Learning to love ourselves, however, is an important first step toward cultivating intimacy in our relationships. By developing love and trust in yourself, you will have no difficulty in fostering warmth, understanding and confidence in your dearest relationships today.
