• Physiotherapy is currently the most popular therapeutic intervention for cerebral palsy. This therapy requires highly trained personnel, diverse equipment, and parental cooperation. Notwithstanding the expense and commitment required for the implementation of a therapeutic program, a computer search of the literature published in English during the past 15 years revealed only nine studies pertaining to the efficacy and no study addressing the effectiveness of this intervention. A critical review of this literature, employing 14 methodological and reporting criteria, revealed that only three studies adequately fulfilled nine of the criteria; the remaining studies used a less rigorous design. Of those three articles, two used statistical analysis and concluded that the results were negative, while the third utilized clinical analysis only and demonstrated positive results. Evidence for the usefulness of this therapy has yet to be demonstrated; with the presently available methodologies it is ethically imperative to institute a properly designed, collaborative, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial.

Birth injury lawsuit ends in $17 million award
The lawsuit involved Mark and Lori Pochron of Rices Landing, Pa, and Monongalia General Hospital in Morgantown, W.Va. Dr. Louise Van Riper, an obstetrician with the hospital was also named in the suit.
In June 1996, Lori Pochron went to Monongalia to have her baby delivered.
According to Geoffrey Fieger, an attorney for the plaintiffs, while Pochron was in labor, hospital staff ignored signs from a monitoring device that indicated the baby was in distress. Van Riper, the doctor performing the delivery, was not in the room with Pochron long enough to be aware of the situation, Fieger claimed.
Nine hours after the initial indications of fetal distress were detected, an emergency Caesarian section was performed, said Fieger.
Following the delivery, the Pochron's baby, a girl they named Marissa, spent two weeks at another hospital due to additional complications.
Today, Marissa is nine years old and suffers from cerebral palsy, blindness, and mental impairment.
Feiger said that his medical experts determined Marissa's injuries could have been prevented if the C-section had been performed sooner.
The Pochron's said the award money will be used to fund Marissa's medical care, which she will need for the rest of her life.

Forgot to put a description here at first...whoops :) -Bee: Once you don't bail out, it's hard to stop...and with the cheap car here it was semi-tempting. As people are commenting below, the practice starting around the middle of last season has been if the car's ARP is revealed as part of the game, use a cheap car, because these games are generally easier since Mike can't use fake 0s, 5s, other evilness. Good budget-saving technique or does it ruin the Price name? -Any Number: James was able to beat a very odd-looking price by coming down to the "moment of truth" and seeing that it couldn't be 149 or 1.02 - this was so obvious even the audience figured it out! Haha Mike, not today ya sneaky fool... EDIT: Seeing the comments...Brad tries too hard I think, reminds me of Rich at first but somewhat worse.

EVERY single time I think we're going to have ourselves a big show, it crashes. And ironically, these two games illustrate how this season is going so far - Exhibit A: The contestants' IQ NEVER GOES UP. Greco starts out this EASY and for some reason this guy and his friends think a Toyota Prius is over $25000. This pretty much made me want to stop watching... Exhibit B: Greco at her finest...again. When this game is lost TWICE this season in this fashion, something's wrong. She also made Grand Game (PG5) very difficult with random balloons and more GPs than usual closer to the target range. When Drew is surprised that the contestant lost, it means Greco's gone too far on us.

Race remote controller cars around tracks full of obstacles, jumps and hazards. The gameplay is a cross between a Super Mario Kart "Kart" style racer and a demolition, combat racer like Fatal Inertia or Burnout Paradise. There are 3 different chassis to choose from and numerous RC car style bodies. Pull off tricks in the air to earn stars and nitrous boost.

FLINT, MI—Online fundraising is under way in an effort to raise $50,000 for the local nonprofit organization, Our Home Transitional, in order to purchase a house that will provide transitional housing and services to homeless, single female veterans.
The organization has raised $626 so far and hopes to reach its goal by the end of the month.
The 10-bedroom home Miller has secured is located north of downtown Flint. It was previously used as a group home and a fraternity house. The organization hopes to raise the money by the end of this month, but the time may be extended if their goal is not reached at that time.
The 25-to-30 homeless, single female veterans that will live in the house, depending on how the beds are arranged, will live in the house anywhere from six months to a year and a half, "however long it takes them to transition as long as they're following the action agreement plan. Each individual works differently," said Carrie Miller, founder and executive director of Our Home Transitional.
The action agreement plan consists of a maintaining their mental and physical health and following up with educational and employment opportunities. In addition, Our Home Transitional offers these women assistance with permanent housing after they transition from the temporary home.
The organization, founded in 2012, seeks to empower homeless female veterans so they can succeed. Since it was founded, it has helped over 25 individuals through referrals, transportation, housing and other services.
"When most people think of veterans, they envision men returning from the battlefield," said Miller, a spouse and family member to several veterans. "However, the reality is that many of these returning heroes are women—our mothers, wives, sisters and daughters. From 2006 to 2010, the number of female veterans reporting themselves as homeless has doubled. As of 2014, the numbers have tripled."
"The first step toward assisting these veterans is to provide a stable living environment where they will be able to jumpstart their assimilation into the civilian world. Currently, there is no facility or organization in Michigan that offers this much needed service. Purchasing the house will not only give our local female veterans a temporary place to live, but will also promote successful transitioning and healing in addition to contributing to the revitalization of Flint neighborhoods."
The Michigan Homeless Coalition estimates that in Genesee and surrounding counties, there are at least 150 homeless or almost homeless female veterans, many of which have children. The following programs are offered through local and national organizations in collaboration to help homeless female veterans transition to self-sufficiency in civilian society: the VA, VetBiz Central, Land Bank, SV MAP, Workforce Development Veterans Division, LearnKey Veterans Division, VetQuest, Cars4Vets, National Education Alliance and MI Talent Bank, among others.
The online campaign to raise the funds to purchase the home can be found at www.endlesscrowds.com/OHT. Endless Crowds is the newest online platform to raise funds specifically for members of the military, firefighters and police.
For more information about Our Home Transitional, contact Carrie Miller at email@example.com, call 810-309-9822 or visit www.ourhometransitional.org.

In Giza, human chains extended across 6th of October Bridge from Agouza to Zamalek, where protesters held posters carrying names and pictures of different detainees.
Human chains were also simultaneously formed in Mansoura, Damietta, Alexandria, Beni Suef, North Sinai and Gharbiya.
A similar protest was held on 6th of October Bridge last month, when demonstrators attempted to avoid using any political slogans, in order to remind the public that political prisoners are being forgotten regardless of their political affiliation.
Mohamed Ibrahim, one of the founding members of the Thuwar Front, told Mada Masr that protesters are again steering clear of chants since they are calling for the freedom of all political detainees.
While the demonstration last month was held only in Giza, Monday's reached governorates around the country, Ibrahim said, adding that the front will continue to apply pressure to release the detainees.
The protests are held in coordination with the April 6 Movement, the Strong Egypt Party and other student movements.
The Thuwar Front was launched last September with the aim of achieving social justice, democracy and equality.
The human chains are held under the name of "Al-Horreya Lil Geda'an" (Freedom for the Brave), overlapping with a recently launched campaign with the same name. The protests, however, are not affiliated with the campaign, Khaled Abdel Hamid, one of the campaign's spokespeople told Mada Masr.
While the front and the campaign share similar goals, the campaign does not organize any activities on the ground, Abdel Hamid explained.
Instead, the campaign focuses on bringing attention to arbitrary detentions, political detainees and torture through press conferences and statements.

Dealing With Spyware and Adware
What are Spyware and Adware?
Spyware is malware that sends personal information such as browsing history or usernames back to a third party without the users permission. The presence of SpyWare may also slow down connection speeds considerably.
Adware often comes packaged with other software. It causes advertisements to be displayed on the users computer after the software has been installed or while it's in use. Software that brings Adware along with it installs Spyware as well.
For extra information on both, here are some good articles:

The Turning Point
Clear-Eyed and Confident at 12, Girls Like Chelsea Clinton Face Unexpected Perils as They Enter Their Teens
In search of clues to what makes Chelsea's contemporaries tick, PEOPLE sent reporters across the U.S. to talk to girls who are her age—exactly: They were all born Feb. 27, 1980. On the following pages, seven of them reveal their thoughts, feelings and fears as they enter their teenage years.
Hometowns: Little Rock and Washington
Father: Bill, 46, U.S. President
Mother: Hillary, 45, lawyer, head of President's Task Force on National Health
Career aspiration: Scientist, astronaut
It isn't easy to switch schools in the middle of the year when you're 12, but by all accounts, Chelsea Clinton's transition period is going just fine. Even though a gaggle of Secret Service men accompanies her and her new friends when they go to Roy Rogers for an after-school snack, Chelsea has settled into her eighth-grade classes—including drama and environmental science—at the private Sidwell Friends school with relative ease. Mom sometimes escorts her to school, and she hit her father up for lunch money on her second day. She plays goalie or defense on the Sidwell girls soccer team. She gels to do her homework in one of the quietest spots in town: the presidential study next door to the Oval Office. She has already had two pals from school over to the While House for a sleepover—during which the three girls baked cookies.
When she's with her mom and dad, Chelsea likes to play card games (pinochle, hearts, gin rummy) ride bikes, watch movies (she re-cently saw her first R-rated flick, Lethal Weapon 3) and eat take-out pizza. Though her plans for Feb. 27 are so far shrouded in secrecy, past birthdays, such as last year's slumber party at the Governor's Mansion in Little Rock, have featured her favorite foods: fried chicken, baked potato, broccoli with cheese, and chocolate cake. Happy Sweet Thirteen, Chelsea!
Hometowns: Santa Monica and Reseda, Calif.
Father: Michael, 50, computer programmer
Mother: Terry Wang, 47, special-education teacher (parents are divorced; Jamie divides her time between them)
Siblings: None
Major concern: "People finding out my secrets, the stuff in my diary that I hide even from my mom."
Hunched over her school desk, she stumbles through her French lesson, biting her small, reddened nails and jiggling her foot. Twice the teacher calls on her, and twice she answers correctly in a barely audible voice. But after school, in her high-top black Reeboks, a suddenly boisterous Jamie Harges spots a gangly blond boy on Rollerblades and hollers at him to watch out for traffic—even though there is none.
For Jamie, the battle of the sexes has already begun, and she's winging it with mouthy bravado. "This kid told my friend that you could land a plane on her chest. I called him an a———e, and he said, 'F—you!' I said, 'You're definitely not that lucky, and I'm definitely not that depressed.' "
Yet even with the aspersions, she insists that she feels sorry for boys her age. "About three quarters of them are really immature and stupid. Once they hit 12, their hormones grow arms and legs. It's true." As a result, long, baggy shirts have become her trademark. "Sometimes I hang out with boss because I'm sort of a tomboy," she explains. "If I wore light clothes, I don't think I could be friends with any of them."
She admits to having been kissed once at summer camp ("I can't say any more because my mom will kill me") and teasingly accuses her mother of being fiendishly overprotective. "You know what my first dale will be? Going to the park for 10 minutes to feed the pigeons when I'm 32."
But then, Jamie is in a big hurry. "I've wanted to be a teenager since I was 10," she says. "I can't wait to drive. I can't wait to get a job." Her one consolation, it seems, is being way ahead of the opposite sex. "We mature faster than boys," says Jamie, eyeing a gawky kid in a Lakers jacket. "See that boy over there? I got about 20 years on him."
Hometown: Boca Raton, Fla.
Father: Larry, 43, special agent for the Immigration and Naturalization Service
Mother: Elvia, 44, IRS clerk
Sibling: Denise, 6
Major concern: "I'm worried about whether I'll ever get a job. It just seems to be too much to have a career and children."
"She's always been mature. She thinks she's an older person," says Erica Anderson's mother, and in some ways that seems true. Erica, who learned to read before kindergarten, keeps a scrapbook filled with scholastic awards she has won in the gifted program at Loggers" Run Community Middle School, cited as one of 222 National Schools of Excellence by the U.S. Department of Education. But in other ways the tiny, brown-eyed seventh grader—who wears her hair in a braid—is anything but advanced. One of her biggest problems she blurts out without hesitation: "Freckles! My sister teases me. And my mom threatens to connect the dots."
For Erica, who looks too young to be almost 13, puppy love seems a world away. Her favorite mode of transportation is still her Huffy bike, and her true loves are soccer, Nintendo, movies at the mall and a range of critters from her 6-month-old kitten to the reptiles, bugs and snakes that she collects. "She was always catching lizards when she was little," says her mother. "Yuck!"
But even at this carefree age, Erica admits that she "sometimes" gets jealous of boys because "there are more activities for them, more things to do." So what's good about being a girl? "Well, all the Presidents arc men. I can't really think of anything." In fact the worst part of being female, she says, is that "we're looked down on by everyone. The boys probably get more attention. They think we're not physically able to play football or soccer. And the teachers give the boys more help."
It may come as a shock that a girl whose most valued possession is a pair of Rollerblades is already watching her figure, but the 5', 78-pounder nevertheless thinks that "my stomach and legs are fat. I sometimes go on a water-and-bread diet. Then two hours later I'll eat a bag of cookies. I try to lake [dieting] seriously, but I have no willpower."
Becoming a teenager, she thinks after careful consideration, will be a mixed sort of blessing. "I'll have more freedom, a car and stuff," says Erica, with just the hint of a shadow passing across her face "But then I won't be a kid anymore."
Hometown: Brentwood, Tenn.
Father: Tom, 42, architect
Mother: Jan, 39, sales assistant
Siblings: Hydee, 19; Loree, 18; Thomas, 16; Marcee, 14; Thad, 11; Katee, 10; Nick, 8.
Major concern: "Like about war, and what Clinton's going to do."
Along with a lot of girls her age. Jodee Ballantyne is a study in contradictions. Next to attending the young women's group at her local Mormon church, her favorite pastime is going with her girlfriends to the second floor of the Bellevue Center Mall and spitting over the railing at unsuspecting shoppers below. But beneath that exterior is a seventh grader of steely resolve. She knows, for example, which boys she likes: "They've got to be gentlemen and pay for you. It's like, 'I'm here. Open the door for me.' " Jodee also has a game plan for life: a job, premarriage, as a lifeguard ("You get a tan, and there's a lot of guys and stuff") and, someday, a single-income household ("My husband's gotta do it. He's gonna have a good job. I'll make sure of it").
In the meantime she muses about where she'll move. "I want to live someplace like Virginia. My sister and I went there last summer and snuck out a few times to meet these guys. They're really funny, and one of them has his own car." Yes, she says, with an air of finality, "it'll definitely be Virginia."
Hometown: Sikeston, Mo.
Father: Richard, 39, truck dispatcher
Mother: Karan, 40, runs yard-and house-cleaning service
Sibling: Whitney, 14
Major concern: "My hair's got to look good." (Kylie)
"That people will talk about what I look like." (Mandy)
"I wish it was like it used to be," says Kylie, five minutes younger than her twin, Mandy. "Boys and girls just friends." But these days relationships with boys are becoming more complicated, and the differences between the sexes more pronounced. At school, for example, "boys aren't embarrassed to do anything or to say the wrong answer," says Kylie. She, on the other hand, feels "nervous that I'll say or do something real stupid to embarrass myself." Even worse, says Mandy, is "sometimes feeling like you're not pretty 'cause no guys like you.
"I think I was happier at school last year," she says. "I just didn't worry as much about 'How do I look?' or 'Is anybody looking at me?' " Still, there are some things about school that the twins treasure. "The best thing is friends and getting to see them every day," says Kylie. "A girl always needs a friend to talk to." Yes, Mandy agrees, "making new friends is the best part."
Some truths seem evident lo both of the twins: that boys fight while girls gossip, for instance. Other gender differences are more perplexing. "The other day a girl's grandpa died," says Kylie. "She was real upset and she talked all about it. But if it was a boy, he would pretend that nothing even happened."
Both girls started playing boys' baseball in first grade, since neither softball nor baseball was offered to girls that young. "Most girls don't go out for sports," says Mandy. "They're scared boys will make fun of them or won't go out with them if they do. But I really don't care what they think." Kylie concurs: "I'm not going to let some boys stop me from playing sports."
Though their after-school hours are currently taken up with Girl Scouts, basketball practice and Tae Kwon Do, the Wibbenmeyers have big plans for the future. "Everybody needs to have a job," says Kylie. "Being a housewife is good, but my mom doesn't like lo be in the house all day. She says she's got to get out." Kylie intends to be an inventor or an oceanographer. "The table I eat on is going to be like a fish tank," she says, mentioning an idea that touches both aspirations. Mandy has her sights set on becoming a veterinarian, and her chances, she figures, are "as good as a boy's."
Just now, both girls want to gel on with teenhood. "Twelve is a hard age. says Kylie. "When you're younger, you've got little things to do, and when you're older, you can drive. When you're 12, you can go out for basketball, and that's just about it."
Hometown: Detroit
Father: Ralston, 42, city purchasing agent
Mother: Gloria, 37, child-care provider
Siblings: Jenica, 16; Raquel, 15; Elisa, 10; Ralston Jr., 8; Jason, 3
Major concern: "I wish I could spend more time alone with my parents, go to a movie or out to dinner—-just me and them."
Tamara Brickerson is hoping for a small miracle. One of her fondest hopes is that when she turns 13 "people won't call me a little kid anymore or think of me as a child. I'll be grown-up like my sisters, and we can all go to the mall." But for now, with just 87 lbs. on her 5'6" frame, she's still "Skinnybones" to her classmates. Making matters worse, her parents don't allow her to wear makeup ("except lip gloss"), and any jewelry she puts on is most likely borrowed from her big sisters; she owns just a single pair of earrings—tiny imitation amethysts, her February birthstone.
Tamara, an honor student at Murphy Middle School and a member of her church choir, once longed to be a cheerleader and still keeps a raggedy green-and-white pom-pom on her bookshelf. But despite two years of gymnastics lessons, she couldn't master the splits and didn't even try out for the squad. She shows no such reticence in the classroom, however. In math, her favorite subject, she "picks the front seat," says her teacher, Sherry Short. "That tells you how interested she is in the class."
The Brickersons—deeply religious, loving and strict—have in the past taken foster children, including a crack baby, into the family's tiny bungalow. Lately they have been pitching in to help a family of 14 down the block. The mother recently died of a heart attack. "We feed them," says Ralston Brickerson, "or just let them cry about why they lost their mama."
For her part, Tamara describes her parents in terms of her favorite TV show. "My dad is like Bill Cosby. He makes us laugh," she says. "My mother treats us like Clair Huxtable treats her kids. She's strict." According to her mother, Tamara is "the family clown. She does a killer imitation of her father in church, waving his hands and singing 'Hallelujah!' "
From time to time the Brickersons' usually quiet neighborhood is shattered by violence. "I'm afraid to go out by myself," says Tamara, recalling how a teenage boy was shot to death the weekend before at a community center six blocks from her home. Even on the walk to the corner gas station to buy bubble gum, she prefers company—"just to be safe."
Tamara hopes someday to be an obstetrician "because I like babies." Having her own is a possibility too, but first she'll have to find the right guy. "He would have to treat me nice and respect me. He'd have to make me laugh. And," she adds firmly, "he has to be smart."
Hometown: San Francisco
Father: Gabriel, 44, rabbi
Mother: Melanie, 37, apprentice midwife
Sibling: Naomi. 14 (parents are divorced; Ivria and Naomi live with their mother)
Major concern: "We are ruining our planet every day, every hour. It could be that we will die off because not enough people care."
Her tidy bedroom seems to mirror Ivria Ben-Or: Its bookshelves suggest a budding scholar, but it also contains a little girls' dollhouse given to her by her grandfather. On her 13th birthday. Ivria will celebrate her bat mitzvah, the Jewish coming-of-age ceremony, and her parents and their new spouses will place con her shoulders the prayer shawl that marks her step into adulthood. "It's going to be in front of a lot of people," she says. "Everyone is staring at you, and if you mess up one word, everybody will know."
A poster in the entryway to her home reads, "No woman is required to build the world by destroying herself," and Ivria has taken its message to heart. "I hate it when they say women can't do things, like be a general," she fumes. "Women can do anything a man can do." But she sometimes runs into roadblocks. Last year, at the end of a class recycling project, her public middle school teacher allowed only boys to bundle the collected paper and refuse. "She said girls shouldn't have to mess with that kind of stuff," says Ivria. "It made me angry. My mom wrote a letter, and I gave it to my. teacher, but she said it didn't make any difference.
According to her mother, Melanie, Ivria and her sister are very different. Ivria—who plans to be a pediatrician—"is sure about what is right and wrong, very grounded. Her sister sees homeless on the street and wants to help. Ivria wants to talk about changing the banking laws."
Mother and daughter look pains in choosing the blue satin gown with its white lace collar that Ivria will wear to her bat mitzvah—a task complicated by the fact that she is too main re for the girls' department but not yet filled out enough for junior sizes. "The baby I knew is now a young woman," says Ivria's father. "It's like a garden that you nurture and tend. Now you have to step back and give her a little space."

Gilded Age meets Gore-Tex Era at Mohonk Mountain House, which has been in the business of turning people on to the outdoors for 139 years. All turrets, towers, and gables, and clinging to a rock outcrop directly above crystal-blue Lake Mohonk, the Victorian hotel could pass for Bavaria's photogenic Neuschwanstein Castle. Despite room rates that might astound a Carnegie (peak room price: $2,500), the vibe is relaxed. A rich portfolio of hiking (85 miles/137 kilometers total) has something to do with it.

Coleman county man pleads guilty to shooting at crop duster
LUBBOCK, Texas - A Coleman county man plead guilty in federal court to threatening to damage an aircraft.
68 year old James Cate of Talpa, Texas plead guilty to a charge of threatening to damage or destroy an airplane with the ability to carry out the threat.
Back in February, Cate is accused of firing several shots at a crop duster that was flying near his land.
Cate says he was trying to scare the duster away from his crops.
The last round he fired actually hit the airplane.
Cate faces up to 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

South Korean automakers are suffering from the same automotive market downturn that has caused havoc for the majority of the automotive world. Hyundai, the country's biggest automaker, announced today that it will cut production at its domestic plants by 25-30 percent for the first quarter, while Ssangyong, the fifth largest, has filed for bankruptcy.
Hyundai's sales fell 2.4 percent in December. "We decided to reduce production by 25-30 percent at all of our domestic factories, except two lines for small cars, in the first quarter," Jake Jang, a Hyundai spokesman told Reuters on the phone.
Ssangyong Motor Corp, owned by Chinese SAIC Motor Corp, filed for bankruptcy just before Hyundai's announcement. December sales for Ssangyong were down 53 percent, compared to an average 13 percent decline for all five of South Korea's automakers.
Ssangyong initially sought help from the government and banks, but found no support. SAIC injected about $20 million into the automaker earlier this month
SAIC, China's biggest car maker, bought a controlling stake in the South Korean company in 2004 for $500 million. Today, its share is worth an estimated $271 million. Although the Chinese automaker still has hope of reviving Ssangyong, it is unwilling to invest more money. Analysts say SAIC may seek to buy a different automaker instead-Volvo, Saab and Hummer are all currently for sale.

Many of the great dramatists wrote wonderful one-act plays in addition to their full-length plays. It has proved difficult to point to which single one-act play is the "most" famous,
but certainly the following one-act plays are excellent contenders:
You will seldom hear anyone talkng about one-act plays without mentioning Anton Chekhov, whose hugely popular one-act farces include
The Wedding Proposal, The Anniversary, and The Boor (also known as The Bear).
Tennesee Williams (famous for writing A Streetcar Named Desire and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof) wrote an astonishing number of of one-act plays.
Suddenly, Last Summer is probably the most famous, notably because it was made into a popular film in 1959. (Tennesse himself considered The Frosted Glass Coffin to be one of the best.)
To see a full listing of his one-act plays on Wikipedia,
click here.
One of my favorite one-act plays is The Dumb Waiter by the fabulous English playwright Harold Pinter, who also wrote The Room, A Night Out
and The Lover. For a full list of his works, click here.
Tom Stoppard's very famous and Tony-winning play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead was developed from an earlier one-act play called
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Meet King Lear.
Samuel Beckett - perhaps most famous for Waiting for Godot - wrote a very famous one-act play called Endgame, now considered one of his most
important works. To find out more, click here.
Edward Albee (best known for his full-length drama, Who's Afraid of Virginnia Wolf), wrote The American Dream, The Zoo Story
and The Sandbox. For a full list of his plays, click here.
Arthur Miller, an award-winning playwright, wrote A Memory of Two Mondays, and A View From The Bridge
(which was later expanded into a full-length play). To see a full listing of his one act plays, click here.

Resources for Faculty
New! Library Guides for Faculty
Do you ever wish that your students were citing better resources for their research assignments? Check out our growing collection of Library Guides that can help your students get started on their research the right way. We also have special guides to assist faculty that are teaching:
For even better results, put the library guide for your subject directly into your Blackboard course site so it is at the student's point of need. We recommend adding a menu link to the side navigation & labeling it "Library Help" or "Research Help". This short video tutorial will demonstrate how to embed Library Guides into Blackboard.
Borrowing Materials
Faculty & Staff: Faculty, and staff must present a valid Cincinnati State ID card to check out materials. There is no limit to the numbers of books that may be checked out at one time; however, only 5 hold requests can be placed on Cincinnati State materials at one time. Most books are due in ten weeks, and may be renewed up to six times, if no other user has requested the material in the meantime. Faculty & staff are responsible for overdue fines accumulated from circulating fiction videos, OhioLINK, and SearchOhio materials, as well as replacement costs for damaged and unreturned items.
"Embedding" a Blackboard Librarian
If you are teaching an online or hybrid class, or if you are teaching face-to-face & using Library Instruction, you can request an "Embedded Librarian" that will connect to your students, right within your Blackboard course site! We'll tailor one of our Library Guides to fit your students' research needs & will embed our page right within your course site. We want to meet students at their point of need--help us help them. Email Kathleen Pickens at firstname.lastname@example.com to learn more about this new service.
Scheduling Library Instruction
Don't wait until it's too late to schedule a Library Instruction session for your students! If you have a research based assignment, one of our friendly librarians can guide your students through the process of navigating library resources, formulating successful search strategies, evaluating the quality of their resources, & more. For instruction to be successful, faculty must attend the library instruction session & it is helpful if we receive a copy of your research assignment in advance. Stop by the library or email Kathleen Pickens at email@example.com to confirm availability.
Placing Items on Reserve
Do you have books or media items that you would like your students to be able to share? Consider placing them on reserve at the circulation desk. Books and videos may be the instructor's personally owned copy or may come from the Cincinnati State library collection (reproductions or items from other libraries can not be placed on reserve). Instructors select the length of the loan period (two hours, 24 hours, three days, one week, or a semester). To place an item on reserve, please complete the e-form at: https://web3.cincinnatistate.edu/eforms/eform.aspx?form_id=796
Have questions about course reserves? Please contact Ginna Witte (x1695) or Don Vernatter (x1606) at the circulation desk. You may also want to watch this short video tutorial on finding course reserves (YouTube) so that you may see if your required textbook is already on reserve, or so you may explain to your students how to find your class's reserve item.
Checking Your Library AccountDid you know that you can check due dates, renew your items, & check the status of hold requests online?

Faculty & Staff Book Club
Need an excuse to make time for some leisure reading? Check out the Cincinnati State Book Club; in addition to learning about some great reads, you'll have the opportunity to spend some quality time discussing what you loved (or hated) about the book with your Cincinnati State colleagues. Visit the Book Club Site to find information about the next meeting, browse the list of books we've read already, & to make suggestions. You can also email email@example.com.
Suggesting Items for Library Purchase
Have you come across a book or video that you think will really benefit our students? We're happy to consider your suggestions for library purchases. Please see the Library's Collection Management Policy (pdf) for guidelines.

Researching the LIVINGSTON's of Oregon, Florida, Canada, and ?
In my life I have heard stories of being directly related to the famous explorer Dr. Livingston who discovered Victoria Falls in Africa. Possibly more notable is the saying, "Doctor Livingston I presume?" which is the greeting given by his soon to be assistant/guide if Im not mistaken. I have never been certain whether the stories of our family being related to him are true or if they were just that....stories. Any light on the subject would be wonderful.
on 2009-01-10 03:17:12
Matthew_Livingston , from Medford Oregon, has been a Family Tree Circles member since Jan 2009. is researching the following names: LIVINGSTON.
Dear Matthew, Welcome to FamilyTreeCircles. Sometimes stories are just that ... stories. But sometimes they have a grain of truth to them.
As we research our family trees, it is up to us to fact find. But we have to carefully work backwards from ourselves in order not to research the wrong family lineage.
With the advent of the internet, there is much online available, esp. re Author: Dr. David Livingstone. Also known as: David Livingston, David Livingstone, Dr David Livingstone, David Livingstone, the African Explorer.
Books by Dr David Livingstone
Biography Dr David Livingstone
A quick search of ancestry.com reveals at least 21 family trees already online detailing the ancestry and descendancy of Dr David Livingstone.
Mary Moffat 1821 1862
Thomas S Livingstone
Agnes Livingstone
1847 1912
Robert o Livingstone
1848 1864
Agnes Livingstone
William O Livingstone
Anna Mary Livingstone
1858 1939
A story that was always pasted down per generations regarding the Livingston (e) family. There is to my knowledge a Livingston that did live in the Toronto area who came from Scotland Don't know if this is the same family you talk of.

NEW RIEGEL - New Riegel Mayor Larry Bouillon announced the village will be eligible to apply for a small government grant through the Ohio Public Works Commission for repaving Perry Street (SR 587) in the village next year.
Following the hearing in Tiffin that examined the evaluation criteria, it was determined the project could move on to be considered by the OPWC. Council members voted to allow Bouillon to apply for the grant and the village may receive an answer by March or April.
Bouillon said the county mitigation plan for the Safety Hazard Program including all villages is nearing completion.
Fiscal Officer Jackie Honaker presented the cash summary by fund statement and the appropriations status to council. She was granted approval for temporary appropriations for current expenses by emergency ordinance.
Bouillon and council members congratulated Deirdre Bakies for graduating from the Tree Academy. She has gained much information about the future plantings in the village.
Anyone interested in planting a tree should contact Bakies first to make sure the proper tree is being planted in the proper place.
The plan calls for possibly removing 20 hazardous trees plus more ash trees next year if funds are available. Some additional trees need trimming.
Street worker Jerry Faeth has readied the snowplow and salt spreader for winter weather. He requested the finance committee keep several village needs in mind while compiling the 2013 appropriations. Three more catch basins are to be repaired before year's end.
In other action, council:
Approved Huntington Insurance's proposal of $5,965 with some amendments for village coverage.
Approved the NBS Joint Fire District use of the village hose tower to dry hoses for emergencies.
Heard Bouillon thank council members and employees for their cooperation and staying within the budget this year.
Set a finance committee meeting for 6:30 p.m. Jan. 22 to work on appropriations.
Discussed cats in the village and heard a street light needs repaired.
Council meets next at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 15.

Guinness beer, according to the old ad, "is good for you." Alicia and chef Matt Murphy, who run the Irish House pub and restaurant, have a different prescription for good health at their latest venture. Fare Food Apothecary, opening in mid-February, will sell prepared foods that are soy-, gluten- and dairy-free.
"The whole premise is that it's all healthy foods," Alicia Murphy said.
The initial offerings will include juice, smoothies, bread, muffins and cupcakes. Next Fare will add soups, salads and pre-made meals.
The business, Murphy said, will cater to those with food allergies or eating, for example, an alkaline or anti-inflammatory diet.
The Murphys started to examine their diets after their youngest daughter was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
"I realized," Murphy said, "that some of the foods that she was eating were contributing to the inflammation."
After much research, Murphy found ways to feed her family that improved her daughter's health while satisfying her other children's appetites.
"I'll be honest, it's really a pain in the butt to cook like this for the whole family," she said. "If there was already a shop like this, I would be their best customer."
Fare Food Apothecary will be located at 4838 Magazine St. For more information, visit farefoodapothecary.wordpress.com or call 504.302.9171.

It shows the kind of space often used for Elizabethan performances in London and on tour. The balcony matches that of theatre stages such as those of the Rose and Globe. A temporary stage would be set up beneath one of the balconies - the others could be used to seat wealthier patrons while the crowd stood in the yard beneath.

To: Massachusetts Nursing and Professional Healthcare Organizations
From: Laurie Talarico, MS, RN, NP, Nursing Practice Coordinator
Re: IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PRESCRIBERS
MGL 94C, s. 18(e) APRN education mandate
Revision of Advisory Ruling 0901: Management of Pain
House Bill 4879: An Act relative to the enhancement of the prescription monitoring program was approved by the Governor on August 9, 2010 in the Acts of 2010, Chapter 283 [1]. The statute adds safeguards to the existing Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP).
The PMP collects prescribing and dispensing information on Massachusetts Schedule II - V controlled substances dispensed pursuant to a prescription. The PMP utilizes the data collected to determine prescribing and dispensing trends; provide educational information to health care providers and the public; and provide case information to regulatory and law enforcement agencies concerning drug distribution and diversion.
As of January 1, 2011, pursuant to MGL 94C, Section 18(e), all prescribers, upon initial application for MA Controlled Substance Registration (MCSR) and subsequently during each APRN license renewal period, must complete education relative to:
- effective pain management,
- identification of patients at high risk for substance abuse, and
- counseling patients about the side effects, addictive nature and proper storage and disposal of prescription medications.
Please note that MGL 94C, Section 18(e) does not specify a minimum number of contact hours to comply with this education requirement. All continuing education offerings must be consistent with the Board of Registration in Nursing (Board) requirements at 244 CMR 5.00: Continuing Education and, for this specific requirement, the Board Advisory Ruling #0901: Management of Pain. Advisory Ruling #0901 has been revised to include the new education requirement for APRNs with prescriptive authority.
By signing the MCSR form and by your signature on your license renewal form, you attest under penalties of perjury that you have complied with state tax and child support laws, mandatory reporting laws, and regulations, including continuing education requirements.
Visit the Board's Web Site at www.mass.gov/dph/boards/rn to access 244 CMR 5.00 and Advisory Ruling 0901: Management of Pain, and other information relevant to advanced practice authorization and practice.

The good news is that the action adventure game Beyond Good and Evil2 is definitely appear. This was confirmed by the game designerMichel Ancel now again in an interview. However, the release will notoccur for the current generation of consoles. As Ancel explained inan interview with Games Radar magazine, you've been working some timeon Beyond Good and Evil 2 However, they had encountered in thedevelopment again and again to restrictions and limitations of thecurrent consoles.
That was very frustrating. However, we wanted to create exactly thegame that they had dreamed about from the beginning. Already at thefirst Beyond Good and Evil for the PlayStation 2could not implementall the things you had planned. This will change in the secondepisode.
It was himand the team was important in very, creating a complex game with avast world. They wanted to convey the feeling of traveling throughspace - as Mass Effect was already very good.
For these reasons we must probably waita while yet before we can play Beyond Good and Evil 2nd A releasedate has logically been fixed yet.
