For me, the worst of it is the way that society classifies things.
For instance, do you guys remember the "plus size" model on America's Next Top Model a season or two ago? [URL="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvufwmnmxO1qboqbv.jpg"]Here's a refresher image[/URL].
All this does is tell perfectly healthy, attractive girls that they are plus size. This causes them to go to great lengths to lose extreme and unhealthy amounts of weight.
It's sickening.

As parents of Estrada Jefferson Bernard, III, EJ, we would like to set the record straight concerning his participation in the recent roundtable oil discussions in Liberia.
This is the first and only time that we intend to comment on recent events. The views expressed here are solely our own.
My wife and I are both physicians. We have worked very hard and have been very blessed to have done relatively well in our professional and personal lives. We strongly believe, and we have taught EJ, that underlying our modicum of success is a strong commitment to God and our willingness to do what glorifies Him. We recognize and remind EJ that, to whom much is given by God, much is required.
These values then, have compelled us for years now, to voluntarily give our services, time and resources to Liberia. We have returned Liberia on multiple occasions, always at our own expense, to work at the JFK Hospital to teach or provide medical care, bringing with us other skilled personnel and medical supplies. In recent years, we have chosen to focus on assisting at a rural mission school where again we have brought others from our church, at their expense, to assist with teaching and infrastructure projects. Each time we have brought teaching resources, books and toys for the teachers and students there, without fanfare or attention. We understand that all of these efforts are just a drop in the ocean, compared to the needs, but I think that we can say with confidence that we are trying in our own small, but consistent way, to help Liberians and the process of rebuilding in Liberia.
We have done these things, not because we are looking for attention or something in return, but because the love of Christ compels us. Further, when President Sirleaf was first inaugurated in 2005, we asked how we could help. Her response was to encourage us to come whenever we could to share our knowledge and skills. That is what we have gladly tried to do over the past 9 years. Though we have not received any monetary reward or financial assistance, the intangible benefits have been enormous. Each time we leave, our hearts are full and we are encouraged. After our first visit to the mission school two years ago, some of the children cried when we left. A few weeks ago when we returned, they cried again, but this time it was because they were joyful that we had kept our promise to return. Witnessing their joy and happiness as well as their eagerness to learn was something that money can not buy.
We have tried to communicate our enthusiasm for service to Liberia to EJ. When he elected to do the high school gifted mentorship focusing on the application of the Alaska model of oil resource management in Liberia, we were supportive and excited. We were happy to see that he was thinking about how he could access information and expertise that could potentially be helpful to Liberia.
In consultation with his mentor, EJ developed a presentation that highlighted the idea of the Commons, that the resources of the country are owned in common by all citizens and that every citizen should benefit from them. The former governor of Alaska, Walter Hickel, was a champion of promoting the application of this concept in Alaska.
As part of EJ's presentation he discussed Alaska's Permanent Fund Dividend, and considered whether a similar direct annual payment to each citizen of Liberia would be practical or judicious.
His enthusiasm for the project was contagious and spurred his mentor, as well as three other adults with expertise in the oil sector to want to be involved, without an expectation of consulting fees.
So when the opportunity came for EJ to join the other Alaskans to present at the Oil Roundtable, he was very enthusiastic. He welcomed an opportunity to speak, especially to other young people to hopefully mobilize them to become involved in the discussions about oil resource management, since their future would be directly impacted by what happens in that sector. We believed so strongly in what he wanted to do that we paid for his travel and arranged his accommodations. Let us be unequivocally clear, we nor he, have received any remuneration, stipend or fees for his travel or participation.
He never professed to be an expert, but because the Alaska model presentation was developed under the stewardship of his mentor, Malcolm Roberts (who worked closely with Governor Hickel for many years), he relished the idea of delivering it as a young son of Liberia. Of course, although his white, older and gray haired mentor with the expertise could have delivered the presentation, EJ wanted to do it as a proud son of Liberia. In fact, his mentor felt that his participation would be essential. EJ attended, but appropriately did not participate on the expert panels that were held on the other 3 days of the conference. The invited members of the Alaska delegation however, actively participated in the question and answer sessions that were held, while EJ listened and learned.
We apologize if we unknowingly offended any rules of decorum or any particular individual. Honestly, we had hoped that his presentation would add to the discussion about how all Liberians can benefit from a potential oil discovery, just as citizens have in the oil-rich state of Alaska. It is very disappointing then, that in the aftermath the focus of the roundtable discussions has become his participation, rather than his message, or for that matter, the opinions and views of the experts and stakeholders who participated. It is especially dispiriting to see the idealism of a child undermined by the adults who attacked so vociferously when he tried to give his best, without any word of encouragement from some key local stakeholders.
We will continue to keep Liberia and all Liberians in our prayers and to do what we can to help, as God directs us. One of our prayers is that cynicism and suspicion will not be the first to greet, and follow those who come to Liberia with honorable intentions. Not everyone who comes to Liberia is looking for something to take; some of us truly come to give back because of our conviction that is the right thing to do.
Please know that there still are people in the world who really do care, who want to make a difference, who want to help and to do God's will, though we know that we can sometimes do so imperfectly. There are people who visit Liberia who are not looking for positions, jobs or for avenues to enrich themselves. I know of many people who are doing well in the US of their own accord, willing to spend their own money to travel to Liberia to provide hands-on help, to purchase books, medical supplies or whatever is needed, without the expectation of anything in return. There are people who believe that there is enough for all of us in this world, if we learn to share, honor and respect, and to help one another. There are still people who desire to be the hands and feet and at our best, poor reflections of Christ. It is with this spirit that we and EJ, visited Liberia. May God bless the Republic of Liberia.
Estrada J. Bernard, Jr., M.D., FACS

HYNER - Trout Unlimited and its partners celebrated 25 years of recovery in the West Branch watershed at Hyner View State Park.
Amy Wolfe, Trout Unlimited's (TU) Eastern Abandoned Mine Program director, thanked their many partners, such as the state Department of Environmental Protection, countless watershed groups, local conservation districts, and the staff of TU, for their part in this "huge undertaking" of helping the West Branch of the Susquehanna River improve.
The West Branch of the Susquehanna River is far healthier than it had been 25 years ago, showing vast improvements in the fish and insect life, thanks to TU and its partners' efforts, according to its West Branch Susquehanna Recovery Benchmark Project findings.
Article Photos
From left, Amy Wolfe, John Stefanko, Rebecca Dunlap, Michael Smith, John Arway and Pamela Milavec spoke at a event celebrateing 25 years of recovery in the West Branch.
John Arway said he spent the first 30 years of his life fighting against acid mine drainage as a biologist. Now, as the Pa Fish and Boat Commission director, their role was recovery and sampling of fish, he said.
"I can now declare the West Branch fishable again," Arway declared.
Michael Smith, DEP Moshannon district mining office district manager, listed several reasons for the river's recovery.
First, they "stopped the bleeding" after 1984 when laws were enforced to stop new acid mine drainage.
Second, they discovered that watersheds with no new mining activity had improved over the passage of time due to natural attenuation; however, this improvement rate slows over time. Natural attenuation is responsible for 40 to 50 percent of the river's recovery, he said.
Third, remining (mining coal out of old mines) helps restore old mines to current standards, he said, thus reducing acid mine drainage; remining is responsible for 25 percent of the improvement.
Finally, abatement activities (such as the passive and active treatment systems employed to treat the water) are responsible for 30 percent of the river's improvement.
"That 30 percent is important," Smith said. "TU and the mining industries should be very proud of what they've achieved," he said.
After the celebration, Arway said that he's working with Pa's legislature and government administration to ensure that no other industry pollutes the river. One such industry is the gas industry; Arway would like to see it federally regulated and taxed in order to cover the expenses the industry creates. In 1977, the coal industry was regulated on a federal level by the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA), and Arway would like to see the same happen with the gas industry to "provide consistency from state to state," he said.
The federal regulations for coal mining helped the river recover, he said.
"If it hadn't passed back then, we wouldn't be looking at a cleaner river today," he said.
Wolfe stressed the need for funding in order to address the issues the gas drilling presents.
"We need to make sure we still have funding so we don't go backward in time and to protect from new pollutants from gas drilling," Wolfe said, hoping that the lessons learned from coal mining would be applied to today's gas drilling.
True Fisher, a native of Lock Haven, owns 150 acres along the river across from Baker's Run and Glen Union and enjoys the river and its fish life.
Earl Smith-Myer, of the Clearfield Watershed Association, grew up in the Ashville area.
"When I was a kid, the river was orange; there was no fish. But the law improved it and in the last 25 years, it's come a long ways," Smith-Myer said. He hopes that his grandkids will be able to enjoy it when they grow up.
Dean Mertz just resigned from the Kettle Creek Watershed Association; he worked as acid mine drainage coordinator since 1998.
"My life's work is up," he said, though he knows he'll still stop by the reclamation sites.
"She's the sparkplug to get things done. I'm very proud of her," Mertz said.
Wolfe had her own inspiration. She thanked Butch Davey for being one of her mentors and said the work would not have been done if not for him.
Davey has been with the Bureau of Forestry for 41 years and worked here since 1982. He was concerned with acid mine drainage in Twomile Run and Cook's Run drainages, he said. There was surface and deep mining and impaired watersheds on state forest land, so he wrote to the Bureau of Abandoned Mine Reclamation. Pam Milavec, DEP Bureau of Abandoned Mine Reclamation Environmental Services Section chief, sampled the watershed for baseline data, and then Davey took it over. Wolfe came up and did an assessment of Kettle Creek watershed and took over the water sampling and got grants written for projects, he said.
"It's a combination of Pam showing interest and Amy picked up the day to day activities. All I did was make everybody aware of what was going on. It was a matter of getting people to realize the problem," Davey said.

SPRINGFIELD – Rain, heavy at times, soaked Western Massachusetts for much of the day on Friday as the last of Tropical Storm Andrea worked its way up the East Coast.
Forecasts continued calling for as between two to three inches of rain – and possibly as much as four inches – before the storm is expected to clear out Saturday evening.
The National Weather Service placed most of Western Massachusetts was under a flood watch for most of the day, and for a time Friday evening declared a flood warning as a patch of heavier rains was rolling into the area.
A watch means flooding is a possibility based on the forecast, while a warning means flooding is imminent.
The flood warning remained in place through 9:30 p.m., while the flood watch was in effect until Saturday morning.
According to the U.S. Geologic Survey, river levels Friday evening at monitoring locations along the Connecticut River remained well below flood stage.
Rain fell steadily throughout the day on Friday, but the region's precipitation totals at Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee, Barnes Municipal Airport in Westfield, and Orange Municipal Airport in Orange were less than an inch as of 8 p.m..
Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee, Barnes Municipal Airport in Westfield, Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks and Orange Municipal Airport recorded between a half in and tree-quarters of an inch of rain as of 5 p.m.
Meteologist Nick Morganelli of CBS 3 Springfield, the media partner of the Republican and Masslive.com said the rain will continue in Western Massachusetts through Saturday morning.
"Moisture is streaming up the eastern seaboard ahead of Tropical Storm Andrea. As this system moves off the mid-Atlantic towards Nantucket, rain will continue to add up," he said.
"Everyone will total at least 2 inches of rainfall throughout Western Massachusetts through tomorrow, with isolated higher amounts of 3 or 4 inches possible," he said.
People should be wary of poor road conditions due to ponding or the accumulation of water on the asphalt, he said. People also need to watch out for minor flooding in low-lying and urban areas.
"We'll dry it out Saturday afternoon with plentiful sunshine returning for Sunday. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday will feature scattered showers courtesy of another area of low pressure moving in from the west," he said.
The rain forced the cancellation of many outdoor events planned for Friday evening.
West Side's Taste of the Valley was cancelled on Friday. It is scheduled to resume on Saturday on the West Springfield town common from noon to 11 p.m. and on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. In addition the classic car show has been rescheduled to 1 p.m. Sunday.
The Western Massachusetts High School Baseball Championships were also rescheduled to Sunday at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, beginning at 10:45 a.m. with Frontier Regional playing Smith Academy. The other two games, Mount Greylock vs. Greenfield, and Agawam vs. Westfield, are tentatively planned to start at 1:15 and 4 p.m,
The home opener for the Holyoke Blue Sox game vs the Ocean State Waves at MacKenzie Stadium was also called off. It has been rescheduled for July 15. The home opener, weather permitting, is now planned for Saturday night at 6:35 p.m.

I am Barbara Schultz – creator of The Soul Midwife. As a nurse-midwife, healer, and mom for over three decades, I passionately assist women to birth their abundant lives.
As an intuitive mentor, I help midlife women transform anxiety into prosperity as they contemplate major life changes. I offer individualized support and step by step guidance to support women in co-creating the life their soul is longing for. Shifting old patterns and identifying and releasing limiting beliefs through work in the Akashic Record, allows women to create abundant and prosperous lives.
Midwife (miď- wīf) means with woman. As a certified nurse-midwife birthing human babies, thousands of women sought my help as they struggled to find balance in their lives. Most juggled career, home, family, health and self-care –usually unsuccessfully- leaving their own needs for last. These stressed and often unfulfilled women recognized they were somehow settling, but for a myriad of reasons could not wrest free from responsibilities long enough to find the joyful, peaceful, inspiring life of their dreams. I suffered through similar circumstances myself.
Following my passion and love for animals, I eventually left the corporate medical/ midwifery world and traded birthing human kids for birthing GOAT kids! Realizing my dream of running a small farm, I milked goats, made cheese, raised chickens, ducks and grew vegetables. Yet the struggle persisted as I multi-tasked and raced the clock; raised my son, ran the farm and worked as a hospice nurse to pay the bills- until I got hurt spitting firewood needed to heat my home. The universe forced me to stop and climb off this treadmill. Patient and loving teachers, my animal companions stood by me. They exemplified unconditional love and taught many valuable life lessons- how to stay present, how to allow nature to nurture one's spirit and how to savor silence to discern inner guidance-where truth resides.
In the stillness, I found my soul purpose and now passionately provide healing and intuitive mentoring to women in all walks of life. I have been a registered nurse for over 35 years and received my MSN in Nurse-Midwifery from Yale University in 1992. I served women as a health care provider in a variety of clinical settings; case managed clients and families in their homes, and counseled countless women through life changes, trauma, addiction and abuse. About 15 years ago, I became a Reiki Master and began channeling and doing hands-on healing work. I utilized a variety of healing modalities such as reflexology, aromatherapy, magnified healing, angel cards and herbalism.
Most recently, I became certified in reading the Akashic records, the unique blueprint of one's soul, with you through all time, since before your conception. (See blog post for more info about the Akashic Record) This deeply rewarding work reveals the root cause for much of your stress, struggle and pain. Until you clear those old vows, hooks, cords and imprints, you stay stuck in scarcity, unhealthy relationships, and unfulfilling jobs. I can access your soul's truth and compassionately offers practical solutions to end your struggle and indecision. I, Barbara Schultz, The Soul Midwife, will mentor you to birth a richly rewarding life.

WPR Win. Map.pdf
We are a volunteer organization and part of the National Ski Patrol System. We patrol at Willamette Pass Ski Area, which is 70 miles southeast of Eugene, Oregon in the Cascade Mountains, providing free medical assistance to any injured skier or snowboarder.
We have about 65 patrollers who work both on the ski runs and in our aid room. We also have a smaller group of summer patrollers who patrol the trails during the summer months. Patrollers have at least OEC certification, which is similar to an EMTb. Each patroller owns all the medical supplies in his/her pack. The patrol replaces those items and owns all of the medical supplies, sleds and other equipment used on the hill and in the aid room. We charge nothing for our services or supplies. The primary sources of income for the patrol are the annual Ski Swap held in Eugene at the end of each October and the Waldo 100k Ultramarathon held each August at Willamette Pass.
Weekends at Willamette Pass are covered exclusively by volunteer patrollers while the weekday "Pro" patrollers, known as Patrol 4, are paid employees of Willamette Pass. Paid employees still must do all of their training on their own time and must buy their own medical supplies. In return, patrollers and their families ski for free.
The patrol actively recruits new patrollers each year. If you think you might be interested check out our Join page. This page includes the steps and requirements needed to become a patroller.

Patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) have very poor quality of life.1 When compared with those with other skin diseases, patients with CLE are among those most severely affected by their condition. Psychologic aspects of quality of life in CLE are similar to, or worse than, what is experienced by patients with chronic hypertension, congestive heart failure, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and recent myocardial infarction. In considering this, we were interested in assessing whether patients who demonstrated response to treatment also experienced change to their quality of life.
This institutional review board–approved study prospectively evaluated response to systemic therapy in patients with CLE using the CLE Disease Area and Severity Index (CLASI)2 and the Skindex-29.3 The CLASI is a validated clinical tool that quantifies disease activity and damage separately, with higher scores indicating more severe disease. The Skindex-29 is a validated, skin-specific quality of life measure that calculates 3 subscale scores: Emotions, Functioning, and Symptoms, with higher scores indicating worse quality of life.3
Eligible patients met modified Gilliam criteria4 for CLE and had at least 2 visits during which CLASI and Skindex-29 scores were measured. Patients with a diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were included. Details regarding the identification of eligible patients have been discussed previously.5 From among the eligible patients, those who had been initiated on antimalarial therapy (hydroxychloroquine, hydroxychloroquine-quinacrine, chloroquine, or chloroquine-quinacrine) or antimetabolite therapy (methotrexate, mycophenolate, or azathioprine) were identified. Twenty-seven patients were initiated on antimalarial therapy. Hydroxychloroquine was dosed at 200 to 400 mg/d, and chloroquine was dosed at 250 mg/d for 5 to 7 days per week, based on ideal body weight. Quinacrine was dosed at 100 mg/d. Twelve patients were initiated on antimetabolite therapy. Antimetabolite treatment was initiated at a low dose, and the dose was increased until the lowest effective and tolerated dose was achieved. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) dose for methotrexate was 13.8 (10.6-16.3) mg/wk; for mycophenolate, it was 2000 (1750-2500) mg/d; for azathioprine, 100 (75-125) mg/d. For 6 of 39 patients included in this study, data were available for initiation of two systemic therapies. In these cases, data from the first therapy that was initiated were included, and the remainder were excluded.
Consistent with previous work,5,6 response was defined as either a 4-point or 20% decrease in CLASI activity score and determined by comparing the score at the pretreatment visit with the first posttreatment visit. The first posttreatment visit occurred at least 2 months following the pretreatment visit. For patients with more than 1 posttreatment visit, the first posttreatment visit was used. All responders and nonresponders were pooled together, regardless of which systemic therapy was initiated, and Skindex-29 subscale scores were compared between the pretreatment visit and the first posttreatment visit.
Skindex-29 subscale scores were normally distributed, and paired t tests were used. Spearman correlation tests were performed between change in Skindex-29 subscale score and change in CLASI activity score. Stata software, version 11.0 (StataCorp LP) and GraphPad Prism, version 5.0 (GraphPad Software Inc) were used for data analysis.
For 23 responders of 39 patients initiated on an antimalarial or antimetabolite therapy, the mean (95% CI) Emotions score decreased from 53.9 (40.6-67.1) to 38.8 (28.2-49.4) (P = .002); Functioning score decreased from 32.7 (20.5-44.9) to 20.9 (13.1-28.7) (P = .01); and Symptoms score decreased from 47.2 (37.8-56.6) to 33.7 (26.6-40.8) (P < .001) (Figure, A). For the 16 nonresponders, the mean (95% CI) Emotions, Functioning, and Symptoms scores were unchanged: 48.0 (33.3-62.7) to 53.0 (38.3-67.6) (P = .30); 25.1 (13.2-37.1) to 25.1 (13.2-37.1) (P > .99); and 44.2 (32.4-56.0) to 43.0 (28.1-57.8) (P = .81), respectively (Figure, B). Differences in pretreatment CLASI scores, duration between visits, diagnosis (CLE only vs CLE and SLE), age, sex, and smoking status between responders and nonresponders were not statistically significant. Change in CLASI activity score was correlated with change in Skindex-29 subscale scores: Emotions, r = 0.39 (P = .01); Functioning, r = 0.29 (P = .07); and Symptoms, r = 0.33 (P = .04).
Figure. Skindex-293 subscale scores for responders (A) and nonresponders (B). Illustrated are Emotions, Functioning, and Symptoms subscale scores obtained before and after treatment (Tx). Blue lines indicate mean score. Black lines connect data from before and after Tx for the same individual.
Response in disease activity was accompanied by an improvement in skin-specific quality of life measures. Correlation analysis suggests that disease activity is not the only factor influencing quality of life. The impact of treatment adverse effects on quality of life is unaccounted for in this study because various medications were used. Larger studies of systemic therapies in CLE that focus on quality of life and its contributory factors are needed.

SHANNON – A bell rings, and new Shannon Middle School Principal Keith Steele emerges in the school's hallway.
After spending the past three years as the Lee County School District's assistant superintendent, Steele agreed to take a new challenge when the district selected him to lead one of its lowest-performing schools.
When he steps into the spot where hallways merge into a "T," he is in the midst of bodies whizzing in different directions on their way to class. Some head to his left, some to his right and others traverse the hallway behind him.
As the 2010-11 school year commences, Shannon Middle School is standing in its own metaphoric hallway, poised in a narrow corridor as changes whirl by all around it. A new principal and assistant principal have begun efforts to give the school its own identity, schedules have been altered to allow extra literacy instruction and roughly two-thirds of the student body is new to the school.
Now, the looming question is in which direction will the school move?
"I'll try hard every day" said Steele, who brings 31 years of education experience to the job. "The teachers will try hard every day, and I want the students to try hard every day. If we do that, we'll be successful."
The Lee County School District's efforts to improve student achievement at the 270-student sixth- to eighth-grade school accelerated during the spring when it applied for a federal School Improvement Grant that would have brought the school $1.25 million annually for three years.
The grant attempt was unsuccessful, but that did not eliminate turnaround attempts at a school whose 2009 test scores were in the bottom 5 percent of the state's middle and high schools.
Steele moved from the central office to become the school's principal, and former Pontotoc High School Principal Rodney Spears was named its assistant principal. Efforts were made to separate the school from neighboring Shannon High School and the emphasis on literacy was increased.
The sixth-grade class from Shannon Elementary was moved to the middle school that previously housed only seventh- and eighth-graders.
"Things will improve," said Lee County Schools Director of Federal Programs Becky Hendrix, who combined with Middle School Curriculum Coordinator Kathy Mask for much of the work of compiling the grant. "They may not improve at the rate they would have with the grant, but they will improve."
Near bottom of state
Last year, Shannon Middle School was one of two district schools (along with Plantersville) to be ranked "At Risk of Failing," the second-to-last of seven levels in Mississippi's accountability model.
That ranking was based on test scores from the 2008-09 school year, when more than 72 percent of seventh-graders failed to score proficient on the state standardized test in language arts and 68 percent of seventh-graders fell below that mark in math. That test measures students' achievement level as minimal, basic, proficient or advanced.
As poor as those scores were, they were better than the prior year's class, in which 79.3 percent of seventh-graders scored below proficient in language arts and 81.4 percent did so in math.
The results of last year's state test will not be released until Friday, but Superintendent Mike Scott said preliminary data shows the school made progress. He said that will build momentum for this year's efforts.
"We know from the data we have that those teachers did a really good job last year," Scott said.
Separation of schools
Until recently, Shannon Middle School fell under the purview of Shannon High School, whose building connects to the middle school's.
Shannon Middle was made a separate school a year and a half ago, but high school students continued to hold classes in the front hallway of its building.
That was one of the first changes made by Steele, who had been principal at Saltillo High School for 61⁄2 years before moving to the district's central office.
Not only were high school classes removed from the school, but 9th- to 12th-grade students also are no longer allowed to be inside its building. The school was also given its own bell system and intercom, independent of the high school for the first time.
The idea was to give the middle school its own sense of identity and to make its students feel like the big guys on campus.
"I think it lets our children focus more on being their age and on school without the distraction of other students," said intervention teacher Denise Wiseman, who is in her 16th year at the school.
It will also help with what Spears said is central to turn-around efforts.
"Some of the things I see that are needed are the right focus and a sense of school pride," Spears said.
Most students in the school will receive two hours and 15 minutes of literacy instruction each day this year. For the first time, the school will offer an additional 90-minute block of intensive language arts instruction to complement students' 45-minute English classes. Steele said that as many as 75 percent of the school's students will receive this additional instruction, which will replace electives, such as chorus, art or newspaper.
Literacy specialist Ashley Finch will teach many of these classes. For half of the period, she will reinforce core material learned in English class. For the other half, she'll focus on reading skills and vocabulary.
"I'm excited about the class because I feel like our students need as much reading exposure as possible," said Finch, who is in her eighth year at the school. "I think it will pay off."
New culture
Because the school added a sixth grade for the first time and its seventh-graders are also new to the school, the only returning students are about 90 eighth-graders.
Several teachers and administrators said this makes the school ripe for a culture change.
"It gives us a chance to implement new ideas," said school counselor Nickeda Shelton, who is in her fourth year at the school. "With the new students being in the majority, we can get them to carry the new ideas out, and they can bleed into the minority. They're new, and the principals are new. It puts us all on a level playing field."
Even with a different student body, change won't be easy or even guaranteed. As the bell rings on the school year and students return to Shannon Middle's hallways, Steele acknowledges the task ahead will be challenging, but he believes success is possible.
"I don't think we can jump leaps and bounds but what we are looking for is good solid growth every year," Steele said.

US Government Support for the Fight Against HIV/AIDS is an overview from the State Department of funding and programs directed towards international AIDS prevention and treatment. World AIDS Day was proclaimed by the President. The special CDC site focuses on the stigma and discrimination of AIDS that creates impediments to fighting the disease. The National Institutes of Health launch AIDSInfo on December 2, combining prior resources. USAID notes its own programs and accomplishments. The US Surgeon General notes the impact on persons of color. Housing and Urban Development looks at housing opportunities.

Panera Experimenting with Pay-What-You-Want Pricing
Panera restaurants in the St. Louis area will begin experimenting with new pay-what-you-want pricing for their Turkey Chili in a Bread Bowl. But beyond just a marketing ploy, the Meal of Shared Responsibility is actually a way for the restaurant chain to encourage customers to help give to those in need.
Here's how it works: Any amount above the suggested $5.89 price will go toward the meals of customers who couldn't pay and to St. Louis-area hunger programs. The idea is that those in genuine need of a good meal (the chili contains about a day's worth of nutrition), can get a free bowl of chili, and other generous customers will help offset the cost …

Hmm, it's a nice thought, and called me disillusioned, but I don't see that working.
I've seen the same model used in several other places, and those places have thrived and profited more than if they were to charge a solid price. I guess we'll have to see.
I don't think this is the only place or time Panera has done/is doing this. It has been successful in their other locations. At least I think I am thinking of the correct chain.

The Pittsburgh Pirates' bullpen, nicknamed the "Shark Tank," now has a shark tank of its own in the team's clubhouse at PNC Park.
"We smell the blood when it's our turn to get in the game and we want to seal the victory," closer Jason Grilli told Channel 4 Action News anchor Sally Wiggin.
The nickname started with setup man Mark Melancon, who is circling opposing batters like a shark in the water in his first season with the Bucs.
"He's got a shark, apparently, named after him from when he was out in New Zealand doing some ambassador work, spreading the game of baseball," said Grilli.
But it was Grilli who made the jump to having sharks in the clubhouse when he did a Google search for "pet sharks."
Grilli consulted Pirates season-ticket holder and Elmer's Aquarium owner Gary Knabe before settling on a banded shark and a coral catshark.
Knabe is loaning the tank, which includes pirate ships and figurines, to the team this season. A grouper and a pufferfish are also sharing the water with the sharks.
"The biggest thing of it all is we're having fun and people in Pittsburgh are enjoying good baseball back in the city again," said Grilli.

The Phenomenon of Globalization and Its Consequences in the Legal Field
Marianna Izabel Medeiros Klaes
King's College London; Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina University (Brazil)
December 31, 2000
Based on a set of goals and inbuilt values, the knowledge society is being shaped under the openness of national economies, cultures and cutting-edge technologies.
Therefore, this paper aims to explore the nature of globalisation from a multidimensional perspective, its effects over democratic systems, citizenship standards, national states and their law systems.
This study is divided into three sections. The first analyses the capitalist industrial society's decline in connection with the disintegration of modern civilization paradigms and the emergence of a new society based upon knowledge sharing and human capital.
Subsequently, it analyses globalization's economic, financial, technological, social and cultural aspects, the emergence of a global civil society, and the redefinition of citizenship beyond national boundaries.
Finally, it examines globalization's influence over the reconfiguration of the national state's role as a formal-logic rule system and the internationalization of legal structures, forms, and procedures, under the American legal model drive.
In conclusion, it suggests that the industrial capitalist society's values and institutions are disintegrating amidst contradiction and paradoxes fostered by the globalization, which might badly affect the knowledge society's bases. Importantly, the magnitude of these changes have drastically altered the legal services market and even the way the law systems reproduce themselves in Europe and in most Western societies.

It might be easier to find the airfoil data by searching on the aircraft itself, what aircraft. ?
Is it the Avro Baby ?
I found this if it helps - http://www.eaa.org/bitsandpieces/art...11-02_baby.asp
The section towards the bottom mentions a Baby built from original drawings at 1:1, he used the RAF 15 airfoil, (though that may not be exactly original, it could depend on just how scale you want).
Joined Oct 2004

According to this page http://www.ae.illinois.edu/m-selig/ads/aircraft.html the same wing section was used on the "Republic EP-1 Model 100". According to this other page http://www.avrosys.nu/aircraft/jakt/109J9.htm the Republic EP-1 was an export version (EP = Export Pursuit) of the Seversky Republic P35 (also confirmed on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seversky_P-35 ). I am not sure about the specific model 100, but I doubt that the wing section would have been much different between versions. On the page I linked first the wing section for both the Seversky P-35 and Seversky EP-1 is given as Seversky S-3, which might be a bit easier to track down. It's the same wing section as the P-47 Thunderbolt and several other Seversky fighters, all derived from the Seversky S-3 Racer wing section.
[edit] there's a picture of the section in this thread, along with a close naca one: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...1118939&page=4
[edit 2] I am not sure how recent is this page, but it offers you a form to contact Barry Plumb, the designer and owner of the plane you are trying to reproduce: http://www.steenaero.com/biplane_lore.cfm
[edit 3] Or you could try to contact him through the Light Aircraft Association http://www.lightaircraftassociation....arryPlumb.html , where he serves as Director and Chairman of LAA's Engineering Committee. My guess is that sending an email to the address firstname.lastname@example.com (from http://www.lightaircraftassociation....ontactLAA.html) is likely to come to his attention.
[edit 4] or via his email address at the Manchester Metropolitan University firstname.lastname@example.com , where he is Professor Emeritus ( I imagine in Electrical Engineering) and according to this page he is currently chairman of the Military Education Committee (MEC) http://www.mmu.ac.uk/mec/
[edit 5] or through the The University of Manchester Staff Golfing Society ... nah, this is getting so easy it's no fun anymore
Thanks Brandano. Barry has sent me the drawings for the aircraft already I was just looking for a small scaleable drawing. The idea was to plot a slightly thinner version as the model is only peanut sized. That one you linked to looks right, thanks.

The cold, creamy texture of gelato feels great until you have to sit in a pile of it. Savour gelato inside your body with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $7 for $15 worth of gelato and treats
- $9 for $20 worth of gelato and treats
Creamy gelato ($3.95 for a small cone or cup) comes in a rotating selection of flavours such as lemon, chocolate, cookies 'n' cream, and amaretto. Matteo's also whips up breakfast paninis that include the roasted red pepper with chipotle pesto, goat cheese, artichoke, and lettuce ($6.49).
Matteo's Gelato
A colourful spectrum of gelato flavours, safely ensconced in a gleaming glass case, catches the eyes of customers at Matteo's Gelato. Helmed by a classically trained owner that's been crafting frozen desserts for more than 35 years, the gelateria stocks a selection of classic and creative flavours that rotates as often as a clown's spinning bow tie. From seasonal appearances of candy-cane or pumpkin-pie gelato to regular flavours such as chocolate hazelnut and cherry blossom, the shop consistently tempts visitors to try something new. Espresso drinks create a pleasing contrast to the cold treats, especially when gelato is ordered affogato style: with a fresh shot poured over the chilly dessert.
