EPIP Bay Area | Next Gen Changemakers: Youth Driven Philanthropy in the Bay Area
Presented by Foundation Center - Youth Philanthropy is a movement, and the movement is growing. Every year all over the world, youth invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in their communities. They are empowering themselves and finding support through youth grantmaking programs that strengthen their independence, leadership development, and decision-making power.
Join Foundation Center West as we highlight the Philanthropy Initiative, a unique program at Lick-Wilmerding High School, in San Francisco. Learn how local philanthropists and inspiring Bay Area youth grantmakers grapple with questions about social justice, equity, and ethics as it pertains to giving. Hear from the youth and leaders themselves as they discuss this innovative model and how it is altering the landscape of philanthropy for the better.
Find out more about youth-driven philanthropy's impact at YouthGiving.org, an online hub to inspire, connect, and inform youth grantmaking.

EPIP DC | Race, Power, and Opportunities for Emerging Leaders
On October 20th, EPIP-DC is hosting a panel discussion titled Race, Power, and Opportunities for Emerging Leaders which will be exploring issues related to racial equity in philanthropy within the DC Metro Area. Emerging philanthropic leaders, the most diverse in the sector's history, are having to navigate internal dynamics and are identifying a greater need to invest in communities of color, but institutional barriers remain strong. This panel will showcase best practices in how local foundations are addressing racism in philanthropy both inside their own walls and in their grantmaking, along with philanthropic leaders providing personal insights on their our journey through this work. EPIP-DC is hoping that attendees leave with a greater awareness of the work already underway, inspired by others, and clearly see how they can be a part of the change.
This event will include a panel and fishbowl discussion placing a high priority on robust engagement from EPIP members or others in attendance. EPIP-DC is excited to be hosting panelists:
- Nat Chioke Williams, Executive Director, Hill-Snowdon Foundation
- Nicky Goren, President and CEO, Meyer Foundation
- Tamara Lucas Copeland, President, Washington Regional Association of Grantmakers
- Tyler Nickerson, Director of Investments at The Solutions Project and EPIP-DC Steering Committee Member, as Moderator

Nat is also leading up the Foundation's newly launched Making Black Lives Matter Initiative (MBLM), a three-year grantmaking and strategic co-funding initiative that seeks to maximize this historic moment to begin building long-term institutional and political power for Black social change and racial justice. In partnership with other social justice funders, Nat has been involved with the development of Grantmakers for Southern Progress, a network of local, regional and national funders committed to facilitating joint learning, collaboration and leveraging of new resources to help build a vibrant and enduring infrastructure for social justice in the US South, and currently serves as co-chair of the group.
Nat's funding experience has focused on community organizing and youth organizing, and his background includes research on the socio-political development of African American youth activists, social movements, social oppression and liberation psychology; tenant organizing and non-profit management consulting.

Nicky Goren: Nicky is president and CEO of the Eugene and Agnes E. Meyer Foundation, which pursues and invests in solutions to build an equitable Greater Washington community in which people who are economically vulnerable thrive. Founded in 1944, the Meyer Foundation is a leading supporter of local nonprofit organizations serving the DC region. Each year, the Foundation provides grants totaling more than $7 million to more than 150 organizations working in the interconnected areas of affordable housing, education and workforce development, and financial security.
In addition to funding, the Foundation works to build the capacity of partner organizations, serves as a convener and advocate on critical issues, and promotes cross-sector collective action to advance solutions to community challenges.
Before being selected to lead the Meyer Foundation in 2014, Nicky served for four years as president of Washington Area Women's Foundation, which focuses on increasing the economic security of women and girls in the DC region. Prior to joining Washington Area Women's Foundation, Nicky spent 12 years in senior positions at the Corporation for National and Community Service—the nation's largest grantmaker supporting service and volunteering. She served as chief of staff from 2006 to 2008 and as acting CEO from 2008 to 2010, overseeing a federal government agency with a staff of 600 and a budget of $1.1 billion.
A graduate of Brandeis University and Cornell Law School, Nicky began her career as assistant general counsel in the Congressional Budget Office, and then served as counsel at the newly established Office of Compliance of the U.S. Congress. She currently serves on the Raise DC Leadership Council; on the boards of the American Association of State Service Commissions, District of Columbia College Access Program (DC-CAP), Federal City Council, Greater Washington Board of Trade, Trinity Washington University, and Washington Regional Association of Grantmakers; and is a member of Leadership Greater Washington's Class of 2013.

An op ed that she authored on why she feels this is not a post-racial America was featured in the Chronicle of Philanthropy.
Before this position, she served as the President of Voices for America's Children for almost 10 years. Many believe that her vision and leadership were instrumental in transforming what was the National Association of Child Advocates, an association focused solely on supporting state and locally based child advocacy organizations into Voices for America's Children, a national advocacy organization with member groups in almost every state in the country.
Prior to joining Voices, Tamara was Director of the National Health & Education Consortium.

I hardly get 2 hours to be in front of pc and really hating it. WHat about u guys?
Probably about 10-14 hours on weekdays. Weekends vary from 16 hours to as little as 2-3 hours a day, depending upon whether I want to tackle a weekend project.
About 10 hours per day for me during the week.
ah great u guys are lucky.
Well, at least in my case, my day job is spent in front of a computer at work, so that's 8-9 hours right there. Then, typically another 2-3 hours hanging out on the computer at night after dinner, before bed.
Same. At least 8 hours at work (usually around 10) then whatever time is left until 1am at home. I have activity days though where I will not go home but instead play Badminton or go Ice Skating or just visit friends.
As much as I love what I do, I like to unlock the chains every now and again ;)
About 6 hours during the week and 2 hours on the weekend. I don't watch much TV, but spend time outside.
Wow u guys spend lot of time in from of pc. Does anybody have computer vision syndrome or any headaches like problems?
I miss Narue. I wish she would come back and give us a piece of her sassy mind.
Usually I am always in front of PC due to my business.
Too much!
i would be for 8 hrs per day and trying to work hard than this
A few hours every now and then in school.
On an average 60 Hrs per week.
I spend a lot of time at the computer playing Diablo III. That's about the only computer game I really enjoy playing. I play it probably 4-5 hours/day.
I work in front of a computer 8 hours a day, play computer games a couple hours a day, and spend at least 2 hours an evening making glass beads.
A lot... enough said. maybe 2-3 hours.
@Ancient Dragon, is Diablo 3 that fun? I think i have to try it at one point... if the fourth one comes...
I've been playing Diablo since it was first released Dec 31, 1996. You can download a free version to see if you like it before paying $60 for the full version. It's a role playing game very similar to Dungeons and Dragons -- kill the monster and grab the treasure. If you are looking to see blood and guts you will be disappointed, when you kill the monster(s) they just disappear.
blood and guts you will be disappointed, when you kill the monster(s) they just disappear
blood and guts you will be disappointed, when you kill the monster(s) they just disappear
I guess i may be a bit dissapointed if that is the case ;)... but not many games actually keep their kills on the ground.

Outside of judges, lawyers and others in related professions, I'm guessing that most people would not choose to spend time in courtrooms.
Sure, we'll fulfill our civic duty to serve on a jury when we're called upon, but how many of us would volunteer for the task if it weren't required?
In a similar vein, the topic of lawsuits is one that we've rarely delved into in the pages of SCHOOL BUS FLEET. It's not that we've made a point of steering clear of it, but, admittedly, it's not the easiest subject to write about or to get people to discuss.
Yet here we are with a four-page feature in this issue on lawsuits and the impact they have on the pupil transportation industry. And I must say, it's a stimulating change of pace.
Executive Editor Thomas McMahon has spent many hours over the past few months researching and developing this lengthy article, and he certainly delivered an interesting and insightful read.
Our industry has an intense focus on the safety of our young passengers and an unsurpassed track record. But no transportation system is perfect — there will always be some degree of risk and, therefore, the potential for litigation.
While we certainly should not live in constant fear of "what could happen" or in anticipation of run-ins with lawyers, we also can't bury our heads in the sand. We need to be informed on the types of issues that often lead to lawsuits, and we need to make sure that we're aligning ourselves with industry best practices — to protect our passengers first and foremost, but also to protect our own operations.
Important edition
Not counting our annual Fact Book, our November issue is the biggest of the year. We send more than a thousand extra copies of it to the conferences of the National Association for Pupil Transportation and the National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services.
Of course, we aim to fill the issue with insightful content for all of our readers, whether they attend the conferences or not. We also want to make sure that we offer an opportunity for the many industry members who gather in Portland, Ore., (where the events are being held this year) to discuss with colleagues what they read in our magazine.
The cornerstone of this effort is what we call a "blockbuster" — a longer feature that deals with some urgent topic. Thomas' article on lawsuits fills that vital role this year. We hope you find it informative and that you'll give us any comments on it that you'd like to share.
Our thanks to all of the industry experts who gave Thomas their input for the article. We could not have pulled this off without them.
I need to also mention that last year's blockbuster, Kelly Roher's "Approaches to Protect Students in Loading Zones," captured the coveted "Best Feature" title in the awards program that our publishing company conducts each summer.
Our company, Bobit Business Media, prints about 20 magazines, so it's a sizable field of competition. What makes the news even more remarkable is that it's the second time Kelly has won the award.

Bullish Moving Average Cross by 3M (MMM)
Today, shares of 3M (NYSE:MMM) have advanced above their 10-day MA of $166.80 on a volume of 217K shares. This may provide short-term investors a chance for a long position, as such a crossover often suggests higher prices in the near term.

About Kistler Vineyards
Steve Kistler's rich, Burgundy-style Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs, from a series of ideally situated vineyards all around Sonoma County, have long been favorites among collectors and restaurant clients. The best bottlings have proven to be excellent mid-term agers and are among the richest and most complex Chardonnays made anywhere—the key is low-tech, hands-off winemaking that makes the most of the particular vineyard site plus what each vintage has to offer.

Gary Gresl, Living in a Material World
Typically, artists will do almost anything to keep making art. Take Chuck Close, the internationally recognized portrait painter who suffered a spinal blood clot at 49. As a quadriplegic, he developed a system to hold a paintbrush between his teeth to continue painting.
So there was more than one gasp when one of Milwaukee's finest artists, Gary John Gresl, stated that his solo show at Mount Mary College would likely be the last significant gallery show. It was not a cry for attention. Gresl is a humble man who has done much to bring recognition to other artists. He helped enlarge and improve the century-old organization now called Wisconsin Visual Artists and he collaborated with Tom Lidtke from the Museum of Wisconsin Art and others to inaugurate the Wisconsin Visual Art Lifetime Achievement Awards. »Read Full Blog Post
Ridge mesmerizing in Chamber Theatre's 'Underneath the Lintel'
Midway through his extraordinary solo performance in Glen Berger's "Underneath the Lintel" - being staged by the Milwaukee Chamber Theatre under C. Michael Wright's direction - James Ridge asks the audience whether we'd recognize a miracle if we saw one.
I know I've missed a few - "Lintel" suggests we all have - but I have no doubt I saw something akin to one Friday night, in watching as good a one-person show as I've seen anywhere in a long time. »Read Full Article(2)

My $300 PC with some upgrades is cheaper, and more powerful than a PS3. I'm reminded when the Captain of the Titanic threw out the extra life boats. He says something like, "The Titanic is the most advanced ship in the world!" It's also Sony's fault for not realizing HDMI TVs are a beast to figure out sometimes.
5 years later and HDMI TVs are still costly. It's the perfect merger of high prices for technology too advanced to work right.

As an outgrowth of our commitment to eliminate the public health epidemic of violence in the Philadelphia region, Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR) is hosting the 9th annual Legs Against Arms 5K Race/Walk/Roll (with a 1mile Walk/Roll option) and educational event, at Arcadia University on Sunday, October 11, 2015. With a focus on initiating a change in our social norms, specifically those that celebrate violent behavior, Legs Against Arms IX will encourage youth and adults to come together to strengthen their legs, as they send a clear message opposing violence in all forms, while honoring loved ones lost to gun violence in our community. PSR is a not-for-profit 501c3 organization.
Our partners will provide interactive educational displays to provide participants with the opportunity to learn about the impact of violence in our community as part of a Celebration of PEACE that follows the exercising. PSR will highlight Project PEACE (Peaceful Endings through Authorities, Children and Educators)—a program of the Pennsylvania Bar Association and the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office--that rests on the conflict resolution, peer mediation, anti-bullying and youth court education programs that PSR has served as "midwife" for in bringing to the Philadelphia area. We will also be celebrating children's vision of peace with our poster contest and with school displays. But peace involves more than children--we are inviting veterans, nurses, educators, doctors, yoga instructors, massage therapists, public health professionals and the families of those struck by violence to share their visions of peace with the larger community. A draft program for the day looks like this:
7:30 a.m. Registration opens on Arcadia campus
9:00 a.m. Race start
9:30 a.m. Celebration of Peace at Arcadia Commons Building Begins—Yoga, massage, exhibits and more open to the public
9:45 a.m. Race Winners Announced
10:15 am Poster contest winners recognized
11:30 a.m. Event Ends

New site, same commitment...
Past Legs Against Arms events have been held at LaSalle College, the Mann Music Center and St. Joseph's University, but for PSR's Sunday, April 6, 2014 Legs Against Arms VIII, PSR is bringing the event to Arcadia University in Glenside with the goal of finding a permanent home for the event moving into the future. Arcadia's renowned Physician Assistant Department provides a direct medical link to the event and opens up the possibility of establishing a student PSR chapter at Arcadia that would connect students in the program with a wide network of socially active physicians and other health professionals. Arcadia's School of Education already looks at school climate issues such as bullying and other forms of violence and LAA offers students and staff a connection to major resources for such efforts. The newly created Rendell Center for Citizenship and Civics at Arcadia University provides another natural tie with LAA since LAA is essentially civic engagement at its root level. The event will also provide another service avenue for Cindy Rubino and all of the student volunteers in Arcadia's Service Office. There is also an obvious connection between LAA and Arcadia's International Peace and Conflict Resolution. Arcadia University's School of Continuing Studies is another partner for LAA, committed as it is to providing relevant, flexible, and innovative programs to the region's adult, professional and non-traditional, students.
LAA also offers the opportunity to reach out to the local community, in Glenside and beyond. The race itself, starting and finishing on campus and highlighting such attractions on campus as the new Commons and the stately Castle, would travel out into the neighboring community connecting Cheltenham Township officials and police to the event. PSR's Race Director, Dan Brannen, has viewed maps of the campus and the community and he will work with university and local officials to create a certified course that both serious runners and the novice walker will enjoy. David Trevaskis, a longtime adjunct professor in the School of Education, is the PSR Board member coordinator in charge of the race and he is excited about bringing the spotlight of LAA to Arcadia as well as creating partnerships for Arcadia with PSR.

Who inspires you to run?
Local runner Riva Johnson dedicated each mile of a 50 mile race to someone who had inspired her. The names were printed on sheets of paper, attached to her race shirt, and ripped off every few miles to reveal the next list of names.
So, who inspires you to run? Are you planning to run in honor or memory of someone at LAA?
Each year, many teams form to run in memory of those lives lost or affected by gun violence. Here are some of the stories shared by past participants:
"I am running on behalf of Tyrell Hinton, who in 1996 lost his young life to gun violence on the streets of Pittsburgh. Tyrell was the son of a very good friend, who has never been the same since that awful day in April 13 years ago. I have seen first hand how one senseless act affects many lives for years after."
"Last September, on the day before our students were to return from their summer break, there was a fatal drive-by - just outside the playground fence. The shooter used an AK-47. Had school been in session, it would have been rececss time. At Legs Against Arms, in order to make this city a safer world for my students and every other child in our city, I am running to end youth violence in Philadelphia."
"My immediate and extended family lacked a place to celebrate the life of my mom. We did not have a time that celebrated the good of her life without feeling the pain of our loss. The Legs Against Arms Run/Walk provided my family with the opportunity to participate in an event that she would have thoroughly enjoyed. We have the chance to remember all the traits we love about my mom with the people she loved most."
Dr. Dan Taylor says he is running because, "as a pediatrician working in a low income community, we have daily reminders of the direct effects of poverty on our most vulnerable, and vital population: our children. The social determinants of health in children that are omnipresent in many communities in Philadelphia include: developmental delays; stress; behavioral issues; poor nutrition; unsafe behaviors; and what Legs Against Arms and PSR have dedicated themselves to working against, youth and interpersonal violence. This plague in our neighborhoods strips families and children from a normal childhood and substitutes safety and hope with fear and hopelessness. LAA and PSR refuse to allow this to occur in our city. This event helps participants, our communities and our politicians realize that youth violence is not tolerated and our youth should be valued, supported, and prioritized. I am proud to have participated in this annual event since its inception and will continue to "run" for the future of our city, our children."
LAA 4 - an inspirational day...
Thank you to our many runners, walkers, sponsors, and partners who participated in the 4th Annual Legs Against Arms 5K & Celebration of Youth on April 11! The event was an overwhelming success - beautiful weather, nearly 700 runners and walkers, over 500 youth, appearances from Mayor Nutter, Councilman Curtis Jones, Jr and Deputy Mayor Gillison, and over 20 teams, many of which were running in memory of loved ones lost to gun violence.
The energy of the day was evident from the kids playing on the track to the runners crossing the finish line to the beat of the Phoenix Drill Team drums. Ultimately, this day was about remembrance and awareness. As Sean Allen, South Philly High student, put it, "I just think with us representing the people who didn't make it – maybe it will make their families a little happier". And a parent of a lost child, "I think about him every day. I just don't want my son's murder to be in vain".

Fortunately, we have other options. 99 recently underwent massive plastic surgery, so her new face is not known yet. We also have a new agent, Agent 86. Who's that, sir? It's you, Max. All right, Maxie. You did it. Lloyd, may I have the C.O.S. please? I'm so happy! I'm so happy! This is the best day of my life! Max, you didn't push the button hard enough. So you could hear me? Yes. Right. Excuse me, Chief, just a thought. I'm not questioning your judgment... 99, I insist on complete honesty. If you have something to say to me, I wish you would just say it. Max has no experience. I don't want him as my partner. Well, that is a sucker punch to the gonads.

- - freestyle bindings? which unions? (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/bindings/30669-freestyle-bindings-unions.html)
freestyle bindings? which unions?
i'm looking into new bindings for the 2010/2011 season. ive been hearing a whole lot about the union bindings, so im thinking of making a union binding purchase. which union binding should i purchase? im mostly a freestyle rider that likes to hit the mountains every now and then. cost really isnt that much of a problem, just not $400 bindings.
anyone suggest anything else besides unions? has anyone heard anything bad? any other suggestions?
union forces are appearently great and k2 formulas are good too tho GL
Union Bindings are the shit. i picked up a pair of Force Sl's at the end of last year and only got to ride them a handful of times. but my buddy had a pair of Forces all last year and he has been riding most of his life and he said he was sold on Union. What I saw was they r just so responsive and durable. I think there only like $200. If youy go for these you will not be disappointed.
yeah ive heard plenty good of unions. i have some k2 formulas they are amazing they dont disappoint but hey go for the unions ive heard plenty of good things about them only thing is is that idk what binding would suit you there.. forces probably
For 2011... I'm going to bank my money on Rome 390 Boss editions being the go-to freestyle bindings of choice. Actually, all-mountain as well.
Rome SDS 390 Boss Snowboard Bindings 2011
I know Unions get a lot of hype and all right now, but the 390 Boss is just nasty!

I was just talking about the Staten Island case with my mom last night. I had an interesting ethical moment while doing Sandy relief. I was going to take a bunch of donations to a dropoff location for Staten Island, and I thought to myself: Given the long racial animus of some residents towards blacks, and the fact that Sandy hit so many regions, is this what I want to do? I wrestled with it and decided that I couldn't condemn an entire borough because of this tragedy, which I do believe has clear racial implications. We have to call out racism and bias but not shut down our hearts. That's a spiritual challenge.

Deputy Gregory Barnes used satellite images from Google Earth to hunt down the owner of an 18-foot boat which had been dumped in an undeveloped subdivision about 15 miles north of Pensacola. Authorities were able to identify a fuzzy image of the boat in question parked at Dwight Everett Foster's house. When police questioned him, Foster admitted to dumping the old boat. The police said it would have cost Foster $18 to dispose of the vessel at a local landfill. He now faces a $5,000 fine and up to five years in prison.

America was once a great republic, a shining example of personal freedom in the world, proud and unashamed, and Americans were once independent, freethinking, freedom-thinking, self-reliant, bold, courageous individualists. How did we become a nation of sniveling whiners, demanding whatever we could get from our own countrymen? How did we go from the land of freedom and opportunity to the land of entitlement? We have lost our way and in so doing, have made a mockery of all that our forefathers fought, and died, for. We have undergone a sea-change from being the proud constitutional republic that we once were, to being an oligarchy ruled by a small group of elitist thugs. The only thing "bipartisan" about the health reform bill recently "passed" was the opposition to it; we are not even a democracy as every single credible poll that was taken showed that the vast majority of American people opposed this bill.

Guys get along well on 'We Are Men'
We all know that men, in matters of love, are likely to be wounded warriors.
So says "We Are Men," CBS' amusing new sitcom about four men making the best of their shared bachelorhood and the camaraderie that results.
The setting is an apartment complex (located "four exits from Hollywood, which means actresses!") that caters to the singles crowd.
This motley band of brothers includes: Frank, a four-time loser with a Casanova complex played by Tony Shalhoub ("Monk"); Stuart, an OB-GYN in the midst of his second divorce who embarrasses everyone with his hot-tub Speedos habit, played by Jerry O'Connell ("Crossing Jordan"); Gil, a small-business owner who feels constant remorse for his bungled affair, played by Kal Penn ("Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle"); and Carter, who was ditched by his fiancee at the altar, played by Chris Smith ("Enough Said").
Plopping themselves into a nearby row of director's chairs, they agree that it's fun to play men with such comic flaws and to lampoon the Y chromosome.
"The other night," O'Connell said, "we were filming on location in a nice neighborhood with white picket fences, and I'm holding my fist out the car window and screaming at a house. That's really fun! I would never do this in my real life!" For one thing, he's happily married to actress Rebecca Romijn. "Even so, it'd be something I'd be too afraid to do."
"Everyone's real nice and grounded and hardworking and professional," Smith said. "Smart, creative, handsome, in good shape. Healthy eaters, straight teeth, good hair."
"Good hygiene," Shalhoub adds. "Excellent hygiene!"
"So no one's a real pain to be around," Smith said. "Unless I'm that guy, and they haven't told me yet."
The only issue so far: the Speedos. It seems that Stuart has a high opinion of his body and loves to display it in the skimpiest of swimwear. This kind of creeps out his pals.
It's a comic signature of the show, which O'Connell makes the most of.
But do his co-stars feel slighted that they weren't asked to wear Speedos, too?
Shalhoub: "Oh, I get to wear a Speedo. They just give me trunks to put over it."
Penn: "I show up for work and I leave work in a Speedo."
Smith: "I get Jerry's used Speedos. I got a nice collection going."
Then O'Connell announced, "Next year, we're going to give out calendars with all of us posing in Speedos."
"But I'm planning on releasing one with only pictures of me," says Penn. "I'm calling it a Kal-endar."

Smallmouth bass fishing in the Stream Black Bass Special Management Area between Scott's Ford and Bird's Nest should be good in 2016. Smallmouth bass are the most abundant black bass species present there, and anglers can expect that most fish seen will be in the 8-12 inch range, and to see fair numbers of fish in the 12-15 inch range. Fish greater than 15 inches are also present in low numbers. The minimum length limit for smallmouth in this section of the Meramec is 15 inches with a daily limit of one. The area will also provide good opportunities for largemouth bass and goggle-eye. On average, one in three largemouth bass exceed the largemouth length limit of 12 inches, and goggle-eye greater than the 8 inch length limit are found in fair numbers, with some even exceeding 9 inches.
On the Meramec outside of the Smallmouth Bass Special Management Area, goggle-eye anglers can expect to encounter a fair number of legal fish in 2016, although the majority of fish caught will remain under the 8 inch length limit. Numbers of goggle-eye greater than 7 inches in length increased since the minimum length limit regulation was put in place, with the indication that the number of legal 8 inche fish will continue to increase in future years. Large boulders, submerged trees, and vegetation alongside slow currents tend to hold the biggest goggle-eye.
Meramec black bass anglers can expect to see similar numbers and sizes of fish as in years past. Sampling in fall 2015 indicated slightly larger sizes of smallmouth bass than usual with about 1 in 4 smallmouth bass exceeding the 12 inch length limit and a fair to good number greater than 15 inches in length. One quarter of largemouth bass sampled were over the 12 inch length limit and a fair number were greater than 15 inches in length. A few largemouth and smallmouth greater than 18-20 inches range also sampled, indicating some opportunity to catch large fish outside of the special management area. Quality size bass were found in areas with either moderate to fast current, or in deep water with cover.
Spotted bass numbers are similar to past years, with about 1 in 10 fish being greater than 12 inches, but few fish reaching longer lengths. Many public boat launches are available in Franklin, Jefferson and St. Louis counties that provide good access to the Meramec in the area where spotted bass are most prevalent. Opportunities to catch channel catfish and flathead catfish are best in those areas as well, with most fish in the 16-20 inch size range, and a good number in the 20 inch plus range. We found most channel catfish in fast water, adjacent to root wads and downed trees.
Redhorse sucker species, northern hog suckers, and freshwater drum had impressive numbers during sampling, and sizes of these fish were typically in the 10-15 inch range, with several in the 20 inch plus range (most large fish were river redhorse). Anglers can expect to see good numbers and sizes of these species in 2016. From September 15 to January 31 when water clarity is high enough to properly identify target species, gigging is a popular way to catch these species, but they can also be taken by hook and line all year long.

Decades ago, when the Eagles rarely soared and the Saints were an unholy mess, the two franchises that will meet in Saturday night's NFC wild-card playoff made history.
Until Philadelphia's generous first visit to New Orleans, on Nov. 5, 1967, the Saints, an expansion team midway through their inaugural season, had never experienced victory, never scored in the fourth quarter, never rushed for 100 yards.
All that changed on a mild Sunday afternoon at Tulane Stadium, when the 0-7 Saints rode a Flea to their first-ever win.

In Brief: Iraq accused of illegally holding women
Rights group accuses Iraq of illegally holding women
BAGHDAD -- Iraq authorities are illegally detaining thousands of women, including many subjected to torture and the threat of sexual abuse despite promises of reform, Human Rights Watch said Thursday.
The findings by the New York-based rights group raise new concerns about Iraq's ability to handle those detained in security sweeps targeting militants amid an escalation in violence.
Human Rights Watch said that women have been held for months or even years without charge before seeing a judge. Many were rounded up for alleged terrorist activities by male family members.
The group said senior Iraqi officials dismissed reports of abuse of women in detention as exceptional cases.
Peace talks begin between Pakistan, Taliban
ISLAMABAD -- Peace talks between the Pakistani government and representatives of the Taliban began Thursday after a short delay, the first test for the government's controversial initiative of seeking a peaceful resolution to the country's bloody insurgency, officials said.
The talks were to be held Tuesday but were postponed after the government negotiators sought "clarification" about the identities of the Taliban's negotiating team.
The dispute was subsequently resolved, and state-run Pakistan Television showed negotiators from the two sides exchanging smiles as Thursday's meeting got underway in the capital, Islamabad.
Ultra-Orthodox Jews protest pending draft
JERUSALEM -- Thousands of ultra-Orthodox Jews blocked highways across Israel Thursday to protest attempts to draft them into the army, clashing with club-wielding police who aimed water cannons and fired stun grenades at large crowds of black-garbed men.
Ultra-Orthodox Jews have for years been exempt from military service, which is compulsory for other Jewish Israelis. The arrangement has caused widespread resentment and featured prominently in Israel's 2013 election, after which the ultra-Orthodox parties lost ground and found themselves outside the governing coalition.
Police on horses beat back demonstrators with clubs and used stun grenades to clear the roads.
Bosnia privatization protests spread
TUZLA, Bosnia-Herzegovina -- Violent protests by thousands of unpaid workers in a northern Bosnian city spread to other parts of the country Thursday and have morphed into widespread discontent in an election year about unemployment and rampant corruption.
Police used tear gas to temporarily disperse protesters in Tuzla who threw stones at a local government building. The protesters returned after the tear gas volley, surrounded the empty government building and set tires and trash on fire. Police were reinforced with special dog units.
The protests in Tuzla are about an ongoing dispute involving four former state-owned companies that were privatized and later filed for bankruptcy. Thousands gathered in four other cities in solidarity with the Tuzla workers, but also to protest against Bosnia's unemployment rate.

Leonardo Sciascia was born in Racalmuto, in southwestern Sicily, a town he described as his ideal observatory on world events (La palma va a nord, 99), and where he now lies buried. His life was not rich in external incident. Even though he lived in the heartland of the mafia and attacked them unremittingly in his writings, he was not the victim of mafia aggression. He married, had two daughters, served for eighteen months from 1976 on the Palermo City Council as an independent in the ranks of the Communist party and then in the Chamber of Deputies in Rome for three years from 1979 with the Radical party, but he was essentially a man of letters who saw the world through the prism of books and who contributed to public affairs …

Life Skills Coaching
Life Skills Coaching is my passion. Assisting individuals and organizations achieve their visions and initiatives are what drive my coaching and consultation practice.
I believe that many people have an inherent desire to engage in meaningful work that produces a viable service or product that ultimately serves society in a positive manner. The process of promoting such an endeavor is often complex, multi-faceted and requires a great deal of commitment, passion knowledge and skill.
The coaching model has proven itself as a highly effective and powerful means of providing a framework of guidance, encouragement and collaboration from which personal dreams and undertakings can be realized. The benefits of coaching are extensive and include features such as: clarification of vision, mission and goals; assessment of needed resources, constructive feedback, reflective listening, pointing out strengths and obstacles, providing skills enhancement, empowerment and consultation on technical and aesthetic matters as desired.
I have extensive training in psychology, personal growth, organization development, management coaching and teambuilding. I hold a masters degree in psychology, have studied contextual psychology with Robert Shaw, M.D. and Judith Shaw Ph.D. (The Center For Contextual Study) and contextual management with Bruce Hodes, M.A. (The Contextual Management Institute).
Please allow me to collaborate with you in order to bring your desired outcomes to fruition. You may contact me at 541-292-8700 or e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com for a free initial meeting so we can discuss your coaching objectives.

Organization Development Consultation
John Del Signore is an experienced organization development consultant and program facilitator. He consults with non-profit organizations, educational institutions and private corporations. His specific areas of focus include: helping businesses create and empower their vision; coaching managers in leadership skills; promoting and nurturing teamwork; teaching problem solving and conflict resolution skills and helping organizations cope with the challenges of constant change.
John holds a masters degree in counseling psychology, has studied contextual psychology with Robert Shaw, M.D. and Judith Shaw Ph.D. (The Center For Contextual Study) and contextual management with Bruce Hodes, M.A. (The Contextual Management Institute).
John employs the modern concepts of self-organization and systems dynamics in his consulting work in which identified issues are treated in the context of the whole organization and not as an isolated event or problem. Specific interventions are employed, based on the aspects of self-organization, non-linearity, far-from-equilibrium conditions, attractors, systems boundaries and unpredictability to produce change that is substantial and enduring.
Organizational goals and individual career fulfillment can be realized simultaneously in a work environment that is both savvy in its practices and humanistic in its philosophy. When staff members have a strong sense of meaning and purpose in their careers and personal lives, they function more effectively and ethically and contribute a positive consciousness to the business climate.
The primary goal of the consulting process is to maximize both economic and personal viability in organizations and help them lead the way to a more sustainable humanistic global economics. This disposition helps foster cooperation and collaboration so that all businesses can achieve success and profitability.

* Assessment of Organizational Functioning
* Visioning, Mission Development and Goal Setting

Phone: (541) 292-8700
John is also involved in environmental activism and has written an Eco-psychology book titled the Passionate Earth. The Passionate Earth portrays the evolutionary history of our universe and the relationship the human species has maintained with the natural world. It begins with the great transition from hunter-gatherer to agricultural living and follows societal development up to our present disposition of disconnection, discord, exploitation and the possibility of our extinction in the near future.
Presented in detail is an interdisciplinary understanding of the events and changes that have shaped our relationship with the natural world and how they have led to our present ecological crisis. In the second part of the manuscript, he discusses the urgent issue of living in a sustainable fashion and how we can accomplish this goal in order to create a state of harmony and connectedness with the biosphere. A new book on bio-regionalism has recently been completed and a documentary on the content and context of the two books is in the planning stages as well.
I am currently seeking help with all facets of this project called the Passionate Earth. I would like to assemble a team of interested individuals to help raise consciousness regarding the urgency of the environmental crisis and to create interventions that will foster sustainable living practices. Please contact me at 541-292-8700 or by E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com, to become involved or to find out more detailed information about the entire project.
Environmental, Landscape and Nature Photography
John Del Signore is a professional nature and landscape photographer. John's carefully composed images are a personal expression of his deep relationship with the environment. In each composition, he attempts to convey this personal connection so the viewer may also have a significant and moving experience. John's intention is that his photographs will be a source of inspiration and appreciation of our natural world and that this in turn will foster stewardship for all living things.
Photography is available in digital format. Images can be used for a wide variety of educational, documentary and viewing purposes from professional to home settings. Interested parties may call me to arrange a time to meet to discuss personal interests and desires. I am amenable for on-location work and special projects.
John's favorite activities include hiking, mountaineering, nature and landscape photography, camping, canoeing, skiing, woodworking, writing, composing instrumental music, singing, woodworking, loudspeaker design and construction and playing acoustic, classical guitar and electric bass.

Shop Juliette Has A Gun here! There were quite a few oooh's and ahhh's when Juliette Has A Gun's new fragrance Mad Madame arrived in the office. It was love at first sight as soon as we saw the dramatic red and black bottle and the scent is to die for. I would describe it as a very sultry and explosive scent with notes of metallic Roxe Oxyde, Blackcurrant bud Absolute, and woody Ambroxan. Perfect for this time of year or when you want to make a dramatic statement.

I recently saw this amazing polish in a fashion magazine and am thrilled that it's now available at b-glowing.com. Deborah Lippmann's Cleopatra in New York is a black based nail lacquer with antique gold flakes making it one of the most sophisticated glitter polishes I've come across lately. I'm especially loving this for the holidays and NYE parties as it's definitely an attention getter. For those who love the ever classic red - Deborah Lippmann's Through The Fire is a radiant red in a merlot hue that has a subtle shimmer in it. For the sweet and sassy girl! You cannot go wrong with either of these stunning new additions.

Best Uses
I ordered the product as an invitation to my daughters open house for high school and she loved them. It is a great product for the price and they turned out great. We had a lot of fun designing them and it was easy for the most part. We just wish we could of changed the color of the back ground and the size of the space we had to write in. They arrived in the time frame they said they would which was great. I even got a coupon that I was able to use on my first order. I would definitely place an order again.
