Karen Bowden Cooper '98, Curator of the Kelso Museum of Near Eastern Archaeology and Lecturer in Hebrew
Each year, Karen and her student staff guide some 3,000 visitors through displays of millennia-old artifacts that elucidate life in the biblical lands and world. The Seminary's involvement in field archaeology dates back to 1924, and the Museum houses many objects from early excavations that took place before laws prohibited removing them from their country of origin. The Museum also includes a display on the current, Seminary-sponsored Zeitah Excavations in Israel and annually offers several guest lectures that are open to the public.
Joaquin Anabe-Lopez, Betty Missakian Memorial Scholar
Though he hadn't been to seminary, Joaquin was pastoring a church in his home country of Bolivia when Jane Anabe came to work there. With a shared sense of calling to serve the Latino church, the two fell in love and, after marrying, moved to Pittsburgh for Jane to pursue an M.Div. Joaquin worked for Home Depot before Jane completed her degree. She is now director of children's and family ministry at a nearby church, while Joaquin takes his turn in the M.Div. program at PTS—as well as helping care for their two preschoolers, Isaac and Irene.
Kimberly Gonxhe '07, Director of the Metro-Urban Institute
With international experience in Kenya, India, Indonesia, Singapore, and other countries spanning five continents, Kimberly is keen to communicate that the issues addressed through the Metro-Urban Institute are not limited to Pittsburgh or the African American context. Also the founder and executive director of the LIVE Foundation, Kimberly partners with indigenous organizations around the world to champion gender justice. A cancer survivor and former family counselor, Kimberly brings a unique understanding to the gamut of global urban issues.
Ronald Cole-Turner, H. Parker Sharp Professor of Theology and Ethics
Through his specialized research on bioethics, Ron relates science and theology in a relevant, practical way for our students, who in their ministries will be asked for answers to some of the most difficult questions of our day: What does it mean to be human? What are the proper, biblical approaches to human enhancement, embryonic stem cell use, and germline modification? How do scientific advances in genetics and biotechnology affect the meaning and future of human life from the perspective of God's design and plan for humanity?

Turn some 'PAGES'
Art Center College of Design's 'Pages' exhibit will make you see paper in new ways
By Carl Kozlowski 11/29/2012
In a world in which iPads, Kindles and other e-readers are slowly making cardboard-and-paper books an endangered species, Pasadena's Arts Center College of Design is here to save the day for classic literature.
Through its current exhibition "Pages," located in the school's prestigious Alyce de Roulet Williamson Gallery, visitors are dazzled with a mind-bending array of ways in which paper can be used to entice the eye.
From a towering sculpture in which 53 books of all shapes and sizes are balanced precariously between the narrow tip of a car jack atop a footstool and the gallery ceiling to precisely detailed and colorful print designs embedded across antique texts, and with three-dimensional, hanging wall art formed from dried-out or glued-together paper, "Pages" will make viewers reconsider how they use paper, a fundamental, everyday tool. And while the exhibit is running through Jan. 13, the "Page-Stories II" event held at 7 p.m. tonight features storytellers sharing one-of-a-kind tales about books, art, artists and the making of the exhibition itself.
"John O'Brien, the exhibit's curator, and I wanted to approach this not as a show of books, but make the show literally about the page," says Stephen Nowlin, Art Center vice president in charge of the Williamson gallery. "We decided to approach the page as a means for communicating finished and formal ideas, and for working out ideas as a process space where artists and writers are wrestling with what they're doing, creating notes in the margins."
Indeed, some of the most fascinating parts of the exhibition are the points at which illuminated manuscripts, rough drafts of works, such as a Charles Bukowski poetic ode to beer, and other assorted marginalia capture the eye and draw it in deeply. The goal, says Nowlin, was "to document the creative process at its onset, before a final version is turned over to the printer, sent out to the professional journal or handed over to the framer."
This means that attendees are not witnessing the finished works normally displayed in museums and galleries, and that very twist is a large part of its underlying fascination. Nowlin and O'Brien maintained a local focus by drawing the exhibit's items from the special collections of libraries and institutions across the Greater Los Angeles area.
"Virtually everything in the show is original material, up to 500 years old," explains Nowlin. "Among these are notebook pages that are one of only three manuscripts in which Albert Einstein actually wrote 'E=mc2' on paper, and a certificate showing his high school grades. This meant getting help from places as far flung as the Albert Einstein Archive at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and as local as the Einstein Papers Project at Caltech."
Tonight's event features Nowlin and O'Brien in addition to visitors Alan Jutzi, the Avery chief curator of rare books at the Huntington Library, and Daniel Lewis, chief curator of manuscripts at the Huntington Library. Nowlin thought that having the foursome take turns sharing favorite thoughts and stories about pages and their artistic power would provide an intriguing alternative to the usual sit-down panel discussion offered by exhibit openings at many other galleries and museums.
But ultimately, "Pages" is just a fascinating way to spend an hour or so in wonderment — especially when looking at that aforementioned skyscraper of books, titled "Delilah," by Michael McMillen.
"I saw that in a catalog of his work, called him and said I'd love to put that piece in the show," says Nowlin. "I told him I wanted it, but he said it didn't exist anymore, and that he'd scavenged all the books for other works. It gives the illusion that this whole stack of books is compressed between a car jack and the ceiling. That would fall apart after a couple of minutes. There's actually some sleight of hand that keeps it in place, and there's a hole drilled through every book with a metal rod which then hangs from the ceiling."
"Pages" is exhibited through Jan. 13 at the Alyce de Roulet Williamson Gallery of Art Center College of Design, 1700 Lida St., Pasadena. Call (626) 396-2246 or visit williamsongallery.net/pages.

just sayin
Not the best, but it is different, so I like it. The letters and numbers in the front of the jersey in the pic looks neat.
They still need a black and orange jersey (lettering and numbers in orange). Even a mostly orange with black lettering and numbers would be better. I want to see these new ones in action though.
Sig made by Sons of Thunder
I saw this while roaming through bleacher report and I didn't see a thread on this. I don't think these are official yet but I think they look sick. What do you guys think?
those jerseys look legit, i cant wait to see us rocking those; speaking of which, when do they go on sale?
DaTPRiNCE...That EGYPTiAN Fella, #MeloMafia
I have been waiting a long time for the Knicks to have an alternate orange jersey. This year seems like the perfect time to unveil something like this, given the solid changes to our home & away threads. I think these are pretty sweet, and if they do in fact wear them in upcoming games, I could see them growing on people!
i dunno, shump makes it look good (no homo) but the picture of the one next to the brooklyn one just doesn't seem to do it justice. debating getting this jersey for christmas.

Honolulu police said a 34-year-old man wanted for a Makiki convenience store robbery turned himself in to authorities Wednesday morning.
The Pensacola Mart at the corner of Pensacola and Davenport Street in Makiki was robbed 2:30 p.m. Monday.
Surveillance cameras captured clear video of the robber. He took about $300 to $400 from the cash register.
The cashier said this is not the first time thieves stole items from the store, but this is the first time she saw a gun used.
The man was arrested at HPD headquarters on suspicion of robbery in the first degree and use of a firearm.
No one was injured in the robbery.

Better late than never
April 2, 2014 —
Yes, I'm referring to the elusive springtime that teases and retreats, leaving me dumbfounded. One minute I'm singing a happy tune and the next? Well, the weeping willow springs to mind. According to my therapist, I have "control issues," but even I can see the folly in thinking that I can force the seasons to change. Instead, I've chosen to force a few bulbs to bloom on my desk and pretend that spring has sprung. It is, after all, in the air. One of the signs of renewal popped up over the last week in Livingston Manor, NY, as an amazing aroma wafted down Main Street. Following my nose, I discovered a line of people clamoring for baked goods as the Brandenburg Bakery officially opened in its new location in the Manor. Proprietors Sarah and Errol Flynn (his parents thought it was a good idea) were busily serving up their (IMHO) incredible array of handmade pastries, breads, cookies and cakes to the well-mannered mob, and Dharma and I wandered in, as I recalled that a ribbon-cutting ceremony was slated for that day. Honestly, the place (www.Facebook.com/BrandenburgPastry) was jammed with well-wishers, emptying the cases faster than the Flynns could refill, so I grabbed my bag and (control issues firmly in place) demanded that they stop for a moment, unfurl an actual ribbon and smile for the camera. "If you insist," Errol grinned, simultaneously pulling breads out of the oven and pointing out that his folks were in the house. Grabbing some goodies, I headed out whistling, confident again that it might as well be spring.
Reminded that local radio station WJFF was holding its "Spring Gathering" pledge drive, I steered toward Jeffersonville, NY to check out the talent and get a peek at the dam, which provides Radio Catskill's famous hydropower. Duly impressed, I grabbed the pooch (www.Facebook.com/DharmaTheWonderDog) and entered, discovering the place thrumming with activity. Board of Trustees member Barbara Demarest gave me a quick tour of the facility, as I noticed many familiar faces busily working the phones, the sound boards and the mics, as the donations that keep public radio afloat poured in. Impressed by what I observed, Demarest concurred. "It just shows what this little radio station by a dam can do. Our supporters are amazing." Nodding in agreement, I tiptoed in to Studio B, where an authors' roundtable was taking place.

John Brennan, Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism, said the DNA evidence provided a match with "99.9 per cent confidence". That would require the comparison of DNA from the body with that of people known to be related to bin Laden. Bin Laden had no full siblings, but more than 50 half-siblings and up to 24 children.
Using DNA from many half-siblings could produce a DNA match of greater than 90 per cent confidence, but it would be difficult to get as high as 99.9 per cent without a closer relative says Rhonda Roby, a forensic geneticist at the University of North Texas Health Science Center, Fort Worth.

It is called respect what we did. A civilized nation does not parade the bodies of those it takes out no matter how evil they are. The Muslim tradition is to bury the body within 24 hours and we did so. There were cameras on the attack force who took him out and they recorded the entire thing as it happened. They also have pictures of the body and other evidence proving it was him.
Also, they found many computer discs and other items that will be very helpful in capturing other terrorists and stopping plots.
This is how it should of been done from the beginning: Use special forces to take out the bad guys and not start two wars that eventually will cost trillions of dollars.
I also think our Special Ops troops did an outstanding job, and President Obama gave the OK to a very tricky assignment. Had this gone wrong, it would of played out very differently.

Still would put my money on an operator being able to visually identify the target properly (happens all the time and Team Six is, well... this is what they do, exclusively).
Nevertheless, the DNA question is a good one. If they have a sample from only one half-sibling, then statistically, they could only be certain to a 90% probability -- no more. However, if they have samples from two or more half-siblings, then that certainty can be increased (to get to 99.9% or greater, I think they need more than two -- will research that).
The New York Times states that (unnamed) government officials claim a 99.9% DNA match confirming OBL's identity.
So, yeah, great question -- who's DNA did they use (and if it is not one of the parents, then they better have more than two half-siblings as an answer).

Your first point is an excellent one and our leaders probably came to the same conclusion. I still disagree because (a) I'm that kind of guy (call it a character flaw) and (b) the language of the blood feud is the language of our enemy -- it is the only viable means of communication we will ever have with them IMHO.
To your question (and IMHO a fair question), there is not parity between an officer in the uniform of his country carrying out lawful orders in an effort to kill only military targets as a matter of law and policy, versus a terrorist who murders for ideology and is deliberately trying to unlawfully kill unarmed men, women and children -- and who disavow any and all conventions of warfare.
In short, one is a human being -- worthy of dignity and respect -- and the other is not. At least, that is how I see it.

hmmm, maybe not so minor -
okay, so it seems we have 1) still no body, 2) ambiguous photos of where this happened, 3) changes in the story of what happened, and 4) as far as I can tell, still no credible witness of anyone who was actually there when it happened - So would a real police department anywhere consider any of this as evidence? Yet, we are all suppose to soak it up like petunia's in the sun -
Top US government insider Dr. Steve R. Pieczenik, a man who held numerous different influential positions under three different Presidents and still works with the Defense Department, shockingly told The Alex Jones Show yesterday that Osama Bin Laden died in 2001 and that he was prepared to testify in front of a grand jury how a top general told him directly that 9/11 was a false flag inside job.
Pieczenik cannot be dismissed as a "conspiracy theorist". He served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State under three different administrations, Nixon, Ford and Carter, while also working under Reagan and Bush senior, and still works as a consultant for the Department of Defense. A former US Navy Captain, Pieczenik achieved two prestigious Harry C. Solomon Awards at the Harvard Medical School as he simultaneously completed a PhD at MIT.
Recruited by Lawrence Eagleburger as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Management, Pieczenik went on to develop, "the basic tenets for psychological warfare, counter terrorism, strategy and tactics for transcultural negotiations for the US State Department, military and intelligence communities and other agencies of the US Government," while also developing foundational strategies for hostage rescue that were later employed around the world.
Pieczenik also served as a senior policy planner under Secretaries Henry Kissinger, Cyrus Vance, George Schultz and James Baker and worked on George W. Bush's election campaign against Al Gore. His record underscores the fact that he is one of the most deeply connected men in intelligence circles over the past three decades plus.
The character of Jack Ryan, who appears in many Tom Clancy novels and was also played by Harrison Ford in the popular 1992 movie Patriot Games, is also based on Steve Pieczenik.
Back in April 2002, over nine years ago, Pieczenik told the Alex Jones Show that Bin Laden had already been "dead for months," and that the government was waiting for the most politically expedient time to roll out his corpse. Pieczenik would be in a position to know, having personally met Bin Laden and worked with him during the proxy war against the Soviets in Afghanistan back in the early 80′s.
Pieczenik said that Osama Bin Laden died in 2001, "Not because special forces had killed him, but because as a physician I had known that the CIA physicians had treated him and it was on the intelligence roster that he had marfan syndrome," adding that the US government knew Bin Laden was dead before they invaded Afghanistan.
Marfan syndrome is a degenerative genetic disease for which there is no permanent cure. The illness severely shortens the life span of the sufferer.
"He died of marfan syndrome, Bush junior knew about it, the intelligence community knew about it," said Pieczenik, noting how CIA physicians had visited Bin Laden in July 2001 at the American Hospital in Dubai.
"He was already very sick from marfan syndrome and he was already dying, so nobody had to kill him," added Pieczenik, stating that Bin Laden died shortly after 9/11 in his Tora Bora cave complex.
"Did the intelligence community or the CIA doctor up this situation, the answer is yes, categorically yes," said Pieczenik, referring to Sunday's claim that Bin Laden was killed at his compound in Pakistan, adding, "This whole scenario where you see a bunch of people sitting there looking at a screen and they look as if they're intense, that's nonsense," referring to the images released by the White House which claim to show Biden, Obama and Hillary Clinton watching the operation to kill Bin Laden live on a television screen.
"It's a total make-up, make believe, we're in an American theater of the absurd….why are we doing this again….nine years ago this man was already dead….why does the government repeatedly have to lie to the American people," asked Pieczenik.
"Osama Bin Laden was totally dead, so there's no way they could have attacked or confronted or killed Osama Bin laden," said Pieczenik, joking that the only way it could have happened was if special forces had attacked a mortuary.
Pieczenik said that the decision to launch the hoax now was made because Obama had reached a low with plummeting approval ratings and the fact that the birther issue was blowing up in his face.
"He had to prove that he was more than American….he had to be aggressive," said Pieczenik, adding that the farce was also a way of isolating Pakistan as a retaliation for intense opposition to the Predator drone program, which has killed hundreds of Pakistanis.
"This is orchestrated, I mean when you have people sitting around and watching a sitcom, basically the operations center of the White House, and you have a president coming out almost zombie-like telling you they just killed Osama Bin Laden who was already dead nine years ago," said Pieczenik, calling the episode, "the greatest falsehood I've ever heard, I mean it was absurd."
Dismissing the government's account of the assassination of Bin Laden as a "sick joke" on the American people, Pieczenik said, "They are so desperate to make Obama viable, to negate the fact that he may not have been born here, any questions about his background, any irregularities about his background, to make him look assertive….to re-elect this president so the American public can be duped once again."
Pieczenik's assertion that Bin Laden died almost ten years ago is echoed by numerous intelligence professionals as well as heads of state across the world.
Bin Laden, "Was used in the same way that 9/11 was used to mobilize the emotions and feelings of the American people in order to go to a war that had to be justified through a narrative that Bush junior created and Cheney created about the world of terrorism," stated Pieczenik.
During his interview with the Alex Jones Show yesterday, Pieczenik also asserted he was directly told by a prominent general that 9/11 was a stand down and a false flag operation, and that he is prepared to go to a grand jury to reveal the general's name.
"They ran the attacks," said Pieczenik, naming Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Stephen Hadley, Elliott Abrams, and Condoleezza Rice amongst others as having been directly involved.
"It was called a stand down, a false flag operation in order to mobilize the American public under false pretenses….it was told to me even by the general on the staff of Wolfowitz – I will go in front of a federal committee and swear on perjury who the name was of the individual so that we can break it open," said Pieczenik, adding that he was "furious" and "knew it had happened".
"I taught stand down and false flag operations at the national war college, I've taught it with all my operatives so I knew exactly what was done to the American public," he added.
Pieczenik re-iterated that he was perfectly willing to reveal the name of the general who told him 9/11 was an inside job in a federal court, "so that we can unravel this thing legally, not with the stupid 9/11 Commission that was absurd."
Pieczenik explained that he was not a liberal, a conservative or a tea party member, merely an American who is deeply concerned about the direction in which his country is heading.
Paul Joseph Watson is the editor and writer for Prison Planet.com. He is the author of Order Out Of Chaos. Watson is also a regular fill-in host for The Alex Jones Show.
ilacewords wrote:Obama continued, "Imagine how the American people would react if al-Qaida killed one of our troops or military leaders, and put photos of the body on the internet."
"Osama bin Laden is not a trophy -- he is dead and let's now focus on continuing the fight until al-Qaida has been eliminated." "
[Actually saw this on TMZ (lol, I know....) referencing 60 minutes.]
My thoughts...why would he assume people would think the photos are shopped? There's a way to prove or not prove that assumption...BUT! I do get what he says about reprecussions. Yes, we would be pissed about them posting pictures of our dead soldiers. Wait a minute, they have posted pics of our dead soldiers & hostages as they chopped their heads off...
oh well.. /sigh

Popular Mechanics, Osama bin Laden's DNA: How Sure Is 99.9 Percent Sure?, 05/03/11, by Sharon Weinberger who wrote:
The process of extracting and purifying the DNA can be done in as little as a half-hour; then experts require a few hours to amplify, analyze and match it. The biggest piece of equipment needed is a genetic analyzer, a desk-size apparatus that weighs a couple hundred pounds (which could well explain why bin Laden's body had to be transported back to Afghanistan for identification).
But Krane [Dan Krane, a professor of genetics and a DNA expert at Wright State University in Ohio] and others—such as William Thompson, a criminology professor at the University of California, Irvine, and an expert in DNA forensics—say that the 99.9 percent confidence number, which the U.S. government reportedly arrived at by comparing the DNA to that of bin Laden's half-sister, is slightly misleading. The key distinction, Thompson says, is that the results speak to the probability of a relationship between the two people, not the actual identity of the dead man.
One complicating factor in identifying bin Laden is that he has no full siblings. "In the case of half-siblings, it is harder to state that there is a match because all one can do is state that it is likely the two people shared a common ancestor (you would not be able to say they are half-brother and -sister any more than you could say they are cousins)," Steven Laken, the CEO of DNA analysis firm Cephos, writes in an email to PM. "In the case of the bin Ladens, there may have been consanguineous marriages (marriages between related people), and this makes it trickier."

The sideburns were the hardest to get right! >.<
I set the base with black/grey eyeshadow first, but it looked one dimensional and too gentle, so I used crayon eyeliner. It was tough finding the right eyeliner coz if it's too creamy, it would smudge too well and look too soft. If it's too dry, it would be impossible to smudge at all, and the strokes would look too harsh.
I even resorted to using mascara to replicate hair in the last picture. But that idea was scraped coz it didn't work out quite as expected.

Going through our ministry archives, I found a recording of the Korean Orphans Choir singing, "Lord, I Want to Be a Christian."
In the 1960s, our founder's wife, Miriam Swanson, toured 80 U.S. cities with this choir. The voices of the Korean orphans inspired audiences across the country to sponsor more orphans, and our ministry grew.
As I listened to this song, I couldn't help but think: This choir, these voices, are echoes of our past. Echoes with a ripple effect that still reverberates to this day.
This year, we are celebrating 60 years of ministry.
Rev. and Miriam Swanson's love for the orphans of war-torn Korea is an echo that, today, ripples to 26 countries worldwide and tells this generation of children that they also are loved.
It is an echo I pray every child hears.
We all have an opportunity in this life to leave an imprint — an "echo" if you will — on the lives of others. What is the echo you want to leave for generations to come?

Policy for Implementing New Blackboard Course Sections
Faculty Training & Skill Development
Develop & Upload Blackboard Course Content
Create New Course Section in BANNER
Faculty Training & Skill Development
Faculty should be trained in Blackboard at least one semester prior to the semester they are scheduled to teach an online course.
- The adoption of certain skills and pedagogies are required to teach in an online environment.
- Contact Instructional Designer, to begin individual training or to inquire about upcoming group training sessions.
Develop & Upload Blackboard Course Content
Content used in face-to-face courses can be used in online courses. However, the converting that content into web-enhanced versions takes a certain amount of preparation and time. Learning how to deliver certain types of content varying from subject to subject and class to class depending on the instructor, is also a time constraint.
Create New Course Section in BANNER
Only after the instructor feels confident in their ability to facilitate an online course and in the content established should the course be offered to the students as an entirely "web-enabled" course.

text: My 9 mth old seems ready to have a second meal so I want to add breakfast. The problem is, I don't know when to give it. She is awake 3 hrs before her first nap, she nurses very briefly when she gets up and then refuses me. Then an hour later she wants to nurse again and then its too close to naptime. So when do I give them? I don't like that she is snacking like this but I need her to take milk that second time as I am still too full from the nighttime. I also want to make sure she gets enough milk and I worry that if I give solids in between the two feedings, she will not take enough milk. Does anyone have any ideas??

I have an 11-1/2 month old dd who has no interest in bf except at 4 in the morning. I feel like my milk supply has gone down and pumped the other day just to see how much I was getting and to try to get my dd to drink it from a cup, I only got about 1-1/2 ounces out of one side and not much out of the other. I have a pretty efficient pump and I tried to pump for as long as or longer than my dd usually nurses. She also wouldn't drink the breast milk from a cup. She bf's about 5 times a day. I have tried to supplement with formula but I can't find a formula that she will drink. The only thing she will drink out of a cup is juice, but that's not very nutritious so I don't give it to her that often. She is meeting all of her developmental milestones, but I am worried that she isn't getting enough to drink during the day. She does eat quite a bit of solids (3 meals a day with maybe 2 small snacks) and I am more than ready to wean her, I just don't know what to replace my milk with. I know breastfeeding has lots of benefits, but I don't think I can go through the work it would take to gain back my milk supply. I would appreciate any help or advice anyone may have.
Thank you!!

Loan repayment plans are designed to meet the needs of almost every borrower. Direct Loans are funded by the U.S. Department of Education and are managed by a loan servicer. You can choose your repayment plan and switch your plan if your needs change.
There are a variety of repayment options available to borrowers.
Among the most popular are two income-driven plans which calculate your monthly payment based on your income and household size:
Public Service Loan Forgiveness: If you qualify for one of the income-driven repayment plans listed above and work in public service or for a non-profit organization, your loan may be forgiven after 10 years of on-time payments.
20-25 Year Loan Forgiveness: If you do not work in public service or for a non-profit organization, but still qualify for one of the income-driven repayment plans listed above, your loans may be forgiven after 20 or 25 years of on-time payments, depending on when you became a first-time borrower.
Other payment plans, not driven by income, are:
There is one additional plan based on your income, but it will not qualify for Public Service Loan Forgiveness and does not have a forgiveness component after 20-25 years of on-time payments:

About the Reservation Based Community Determined Program:The program is for students with 90 or more credits who live or work on a reservation or have social or cultural ties to tribal communities. Students work toward a Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Arts. Classes meet 2 nights a week at the program sites, including: Muckleshoot, Nisqually, Port Gamble, Quinault, Tulalip, and the Peninsula College Site which serves Makah, Lower Elwha S'Klallam, Quileute, Hoh, and Jamestown S'Klallam. All reservation sites utilize a well-defined, consistent, common curriculum as well as develop site-specific curricular initiatives. Classes also meet 4 Saturdays per quarter at the Longhouse on the Evergreen campus. The program coordinates closely with the Grays Harbor College Bridge program and the Peninsula College Bridge program (which is for students with less than 90 credits) and shares some common courses.
The program provides students with an interdisciplinary liberal arts degree. Students have opportunities to develop projects that will strengthen their communities. It also provides opportunities to conduct applied research, grow academically, focus learning in specialized areas, and participate in learning communities that extend beyond the classroom. Study focuses on analysis, research, communication, and quantitative reasoning, with a firm grounding in historical and contemporary American Indian issues. Emphasis is placed on critical thinking, writing, literature, culture, and technology skills. Through collaboration with tribal elected officials and education representatives, the mandate for the program's academic goals was developed. Within that community-determined framework, the faculty team developed thematic interdisciplinary approaches. As part of the vision, the program strives to achieve balance between personal authority, cultural knowledge, and academics.

My 6 month old daughter is very active when I'm trying to breastfeed. I had a big scare a couple weeks ago when my supply was so low, she barely had 1 wet diaper a day. I took Fenugreek and my supply boosted up and all was ok. So, I stopped fenugreek (or should I say I finished the bottle) and my supply diminished. I am now taking it again and haven't really noticed an increase in supply like last time, PLUS - my daughter never wants to nurse. She pushes her legs into the chair and launches herself right off of me sometimes, or she just is SO DISTRACTED or just doesn't want any.
I can't pump because when i do - NOTHING comes out (even after 15 mins of double pumping). besides- if something did, I wouldn't be able to give her the expressed milk in a bottle since she refuses bottles!!
I started solids at 5 months, and she won't even eat that anymore. I just don't know what to do. I'm afraid that my supply will really be gone, and my baby will starve! She is napping right now and well - we're going on 5 hours since last feeding. She used to nurse every 2-3 hours. Now - I am lucky if she wants it every 4 hours or more.

The most popular plastic surgery last year was liposuction. Injections like Botox were also very popular among patients.

I wasn't sure where to put this post. I really hope some of the newer moms see this because I remember the early months and the *millions* of times I thought, "I just can't do this anymore," but somehow stuck with it, and now--20 months later--am so, so glad I did. Because now *I* need it, just as much as DD does.
Raising a toddler...I don't have the words to convey how much strength it takes, both physically and emotionally. I think one of the challenges is that there are no breaks, and few moments to quietly bond. But nursing gives us that. If I weren't nursing DD, I think our days would be crazy blurs of me chasing after her, from the moment she got up until bed time. Sometimes, I am just so drained, and when she asks to nurse...it is a gift. A moment to sit down, zone out, admire my baby's eyelashes (, yeah, I'm still an adoring, besotted mom), clip her fingernails.
That's all I wanted to say. Everything we've gone through, all those painful times--they were worth it, to get us to where we are now. I hope she won't wean any time soon.

There's an interesting hearing at 9 AM in Harrisburg today before the Senate Urban Affairs and Housing Committee.
The committee will discuss local ordinances related to student housing in university towns, such as Indiana. Chairman Gene Yaw, whose 23rd District includes Bucknell University, says the state's colleges and universities "present a unique set of planning and community development challenges" and ordinances limiting student housing are becoming more and more common.
Among those speaking at the hearing today will be representatives of several residential housing associations, the Pennsylvania State Association of Boroughs, the Pennsylvania Municipal League, and the city of Reading.
Indiana Borough's 2007 Residential Preservation Ordinance is aimed at converting homes that traditionally were rented to students to single family dwellings. It states that homes in the R1 and R2 zones cannot be converted to student rental units, and student rentals that remain unoccupied for nine months will be rezoned residential. The ordinance also lowers the maximum occupancy for units that don't meet their current maximum occupancy for nine months. The offshoot of the rules regulating houses rented to students has been a boom in apartment units built specifically for student housing.

I would actually caution AGAINST putting cabbage against your breasts. As soothing as it may feel. Since cabbage is actually used to get people to Slow or Stop lactating. I don't think it's a risk you should take at two weeks in. Since you are still needing to regulate your supply.
And if they didn't give you a script for pain meds I would at least take some motrin before you try to nurse on the infected breast. So that you are able to work through the pain.

Prevent and Reverse High Blood Pressure
Referred to as "the silent killer," high blood pressure is especially dangerous because it typically has no symptoms. It can cause stroke, congestive heart failure, hardening of the arteries, mental decline, and premature death. Fortunately, there are many proactive things we can do to prevent and even reverse high blood pressure. In this comprehensive booklet, Dr. Daniel Crisafi describes a variety of ways to help readers normalize thier blood pressure. A combination of diet, lifestyle factors, and superior dietary supplements can help individuals— especially those at risk of high blood pressure—prevent or reverse it. Dr. Crisafi's recommendations are easy to understand and simple to follow.

I was reading a few pages of this booklet till the author mentioned that we should cut down on saturated fat which includes coconut oil. I totally disagree with him as coconut oil is not a bad saturated fat as it is a medium chain fatty acid and will not turn into trans fat when consumed. Contrary to what was previously believed by many health care professionals coconut oil in fact has many health benefits. Did not bother to finish reading this booklet.
This booklet was very helpful in helping me identify the type of garlic used to control blood pressure. All garlic is not created equal and this booklet helps the user find the right type for the right condition.

Joy resigned his position effective immediately to allow the school board to post the job opening and fill the top athletic department position before the end of the school year. Joy will be at the S-T post until the end of the school year, however, according to Belmarez.
Joy is said to be looking to move closer to his family in the San Antonio area. Joy was brought in to coach the Bobcats just last year and worked hard to create a good foundation for the S-TISD football and athletics program.
The varsity Bobcats finished the year with a 3-7 record and were 3-4 in district play last season.
The posting for the position is up and applications will be taken and interviews set up before the school year ends.
Dr. Belmarez feels confident that a successor can be found and hired before the end of the school year and possibly by the time of the athletic banquet.

A fire that broke out nearly 10 miles west of Crossroads on Saturday afternoon burned nearly 25,000 acres of land.
Milnesand Fire Department Chief John Mohon said the fire, aided by winds of 45 to 55 miles per hour, jumped Highway 258, came close to Highway 206 and missed Milnesand by about one mile.
He said the incident would have no effect on the 10th annual High Plains Prairie Chicken Festival which will be held Friday through Sunday.
He said as a precaution all of Milnesand was evacuated due to the direction of the fire and wind. Mohon said 10 structures were threatened, but they were all saved. Along with grass, only three car shells were burned.
"I just want to give credit to all the departments that helped," Mohon said. "All of Roosevelt County is a community in itself. We all work together as one team. We have to with these large grass fires."
He said 10 fire departments and four sheriff's departments were involved in aid, along with three units from the Roswell Bureau of Land Management and five Roosevelt County road graders.
The fire covered 18 miles in length, with an average of 1.5 miles in width.
Mohon said they believed the incident to be contained Sunday morning at 20,000 acres, but winds flared the fire up again, burning another 5,000 acres and causing firefighters to be sent out again.
"I'm not declaring it 100 percent contained yet due to the winds that are expected tomorrow," Mohon said Monday afternoon. "We think we've got it, but you never know. That re-kindle that we had, we don't want another one."
He said the final firefighters were called in at 11:30 a.m. Monday but they would continue to keep an eye on the affected area through today.
Patricia McDaniel, a coordinator for the prairie chicken festival, said with the exception of changing a couple of locations for bird watching, all events for the festival will go as planned.
"The fire is just part of the natural ecology of the prairie," McDaniel said. "The birds evolved with it and flew out of the way. Unfortunately cows and homes can't do that. We are just grateful no one was hurt."
McDaniel said deadlines for sign-ups for the festival have passed, so attendance for the event should also not change.

happy(er) in NYC?
I love Cleveland. I really do. But lately I have really been wondering what my life would have been like if I would have moved to New York City straight out of college.
I have no doubt that our city is on an upward cycle, as evident in the recent Yahoo article: The Return of the Comeback City. However, we have a LONG way to go. Our city is not as progressive as most, we are surrounded by people (young and old, suburban and urban) who are disgustingly closed-minded and our greatest natural resource has still yet to be developed upon. Our city cannot even keep our only major lakefront park clean, updated and aesthetically beautiful as it should be.
Sometimes I wish I would wake up tomorrow, in a small loft apartment in Manhattan that has just enough space for my personal belongings and CB2 essentials. I would then prepare myself for the day, shut the door, put my shades on and walk to my place of business, which would most likely consist of some small boutique shop or large powerhouse advertising agency. After a long day of work, the night would begin with dinner and shenanigans at any one of 4,200 restaurants in the city, followed by additional stops and more shenanigans. Weekends would be spent enjoying shows, museums, world-class shopping, gallery openings, concerts and off-beat parties.
Now, I am extremely grateful for everything that I have in my current phase of life, but my mind has been on this "what if" state and it won't go away. This may be just a part of getting older, as you sit back and dissect every aspect of your life and wonder why you didn't do this or why you haven't done that.
I think it is time for a long weekend trip to NYC. Maybe I just need a little time there to realize how good life is here in CLE. Or, maybe I will realize how much better life is in NYC.

The nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom criticized on Friday the proposed legislation, SB 1085, which would place an additional tax of one cent per ounce on sugar-sweetened beverages.
The bill will next be considered by the Ways and Means Committee before going to the Senate floor.
According to the group, the proposal to tax sugar-sweetened beverages is absurdly misguided when it comes to promoting weight loss. They say study after study has demonstrated that soda is not a unique contributor to obesity.
The group says a recent analysis by the National Cancer Institute found that soft drink intake actually accounts for less than seven percent of the average person's daily calories.
"Taxes shouldn't be a tool for social engineering or an instrument to penalize Hawaiians for doing nothing wrong," said J. Justin Wilson, Senior Research Analyst at the Center for Consumer Freedom. "Residents of Hawaii don't need a Ph.D. in Nutrition to tell them that eating or drinking too much of anything is unhealthy; it only takes a little common sense and personal responsibility."
The author of a recent soda tax study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine determined that people would likely switch to untaxed beverages with the same amount of calories such as whole milk or fruit juice, leaving a soda tax as primarily a money-making exercise for the government.
"Sugar-sweetened beverages are no more fattening than any other food with calories," Wilson continued. "It's only the overconsumption of calories, whether from soda or other foods and drinks, that leads people to put on extra pounds."
Some Senators say the consumption of sugary drinks contributes to obesity. The bill cites a 2004 study that found sugared soft drinks are the single largest contributor of calorie intake in the U.S.

Cub Scouts compete in annual Pinewood Derby
VIENNA, W.Va. – Hundreds of Cub Scouts from around the Mid-Ohio Valley went head-to-head Saturday during the 41st annual Davis Anderson Memorial Cub Scout Pinewood Derby Allohak Council Championships at the Grand Central Mall in Vienna.
The all-day derby began at 10 a.m. with almost 500 boys racing homemade cars on five tracks throughout the mall.
"There are 456 kids pre-registered, which is a record for us in recent years," said derby chairperson Kathy Anderson Wise. "There were about 420 boys last year and only 300 the year before, so this is great."
The Mayors and Area Dignitaries/Celebrities Race was held at noon in the Center Court. Officers with the Vienna Police Department also gave "speeding tickets" to some of the racers.
"The Scouts come for the fun of it all and it's interesting to see how they grow over the years as they go from telling the adults what they want to actually doing it themselves," said Dale Musgrave, Scout executive with the Boy Scouts of America Allohak Council. "Through the pinewood derby they mature and learn a lot of skills they can use in other areas of life."
Pinewood Derby racing requires participants to learn the crafts necessary to make the cars, the derby rules that must be followed in the car making, the racing process and, most important, sportsmanship. This has to do with how the Scout acts and behaves while participating in the derby.
The model cars are made of wood to specified dimensions, created, carved, assembled, and decorated by Cub Scouts under the guidance of their parents or helpers. All Scouts are required to build a new car each year. On race day, the cars were weighed, measured and inspected to confirm that the race rules have been followed.
"We have specified dimensions and weight requirements that help the boys' math skills," Wise said. "The idea is to help them learn new skills and win or lose good sportsmanship.
"Boys will come away from here with a sense of satisfaction that 'I may not have won, but I had a good time participating,'" Wise said. "Our main goal is for everybody to have fun."
Wise said it is fun to watch the boys grow up in the derby. Cubs at age 6 can race.
"The first year Tigers have such tiny hands they can barely hold on to the cars and to see them grow up and become more comfortable with the races is fun," she said.
The races are not just about winning, but also how to be a good winner and loser and more importantly, about having fun, said Wise. The purpose of the Pinewood Derby is to help the Cub Scout build a team relationship with their parent or helper, experience the sense of accomplishment, learn new skills, the excitement of competition, learn win or lose good sportsmanship, and to have fun.
"The purpose is to work with an adult on the car," Musgrave said. "In the end, the boy has learned a lot of skills and maybe have a different perspective on that parent or helper."
Stacey Cunningham of Waverly watched her son Trey Cunningham, 8, with Cub Scouts Pack 12 race in his first pinewood derby.
"This is our first year and I had no idea what all went into it," Stacey Cunningham said. "Some of these derby cars are nicer than cars on the road with their paint jobs and things, we already have a lot of great ideas for next year."
While the first local Pinewood Derby was held in 1972, the Pinewood Derby has been an annual event at the Grand Central Mall since 1974. Wise credits the mall, its merchants and other businesses throughout the area for their cooperation and support as several hundred Scouts and their family members spend the day at the facilities.
The Allohak Council serves 17 counties in West Virginia and Ohio. The Allohak Council earned the prestigious National Centennial Quality Council Award for the National Council, Boy Scouts of America for membership growth, quality programs and fiscal soundness, a distinction that the Allohak Council has earned for the three consecutive years.
For more information, go online to www.allohak.org.
Following the derby, the Allohak Council of the Boys Scouts of America crowned the winner, including:
1st, Elijah McIntyre, Pack 47, Waverly; 2nd, Daniel Wharton, Pack 12, Parkersburg; 3rd, Zac Elliott, Pack 60, Davisville; 4th, Christopher Reeder, Pack 71, Guysville; 5th, P.J. Hostottle, Pack 19, Little Hocking; 6th, Michael Turkaly II, Pack 440, Cottageville; 7th, Hayden Viers, Pack 117, Lubeck; 8th, Sam Hickman, Pack 129, Washington, W.Va.; 9th, Pierce Karwatka, Pack 86, Mineral Wells; and10th, John Heiss, Pack 222, Waterford.
Winners of the Mayor's and Celebrity Race were: 1st, Alan Haught of Harrisville; 2nd, Travis O'Dell of the OA Team; 3rd, State Sen. David Nohe. Also racing were Smokey the Bear, derby coordinator Kathy Anderson Wise, Jason Wharton, Mike Lorentz, Keith Wilson and Randy Rapp.

"No democracy on earth has one person who decides how money is spent," Baiamonte told the commissioners.
Baiamonte said even though the donations are to specific departments, the money belongs to the county and the spending of the money has to first be approved by the commissioners.
The court decided to take no action on the item.
The court also held a public hearing to lower the speed limit to 30 mph on Abrameit Road. Landowners on Abrameit Road recommended the speed limit be reduced to 40 or 45 mph.
The court decided to take no action and called for another public hearing to discuss the topic.

The only bias I have is that I think the absence of P&R is fundamentally bad for our game. General sports fans already describe our system as "bizarre" what the movers and shakers in sport will think if we have a ten team (not twelve) comp with two of the teams being from abroad god alone knows. That leaves 8 English clubs, how much notice are the Engllsh media going to take of such a comp? Very little is my guess. Our media profile has declined dramatically since we got into bed with Murdoch. They don't exactly ignore us but they come pretty close. Contrast this with the superb treatment the Beeb gave to RL's 1995 World Cup and Centenary. What did they get for their pains? Murdoch and Super League. Is it any wonder their treatment of our game is now a little less than overwhelming ? In those days the likes of Hanley, Schoey, Offiah were household names, how many of our top stars could be so descibed today? None! Kevin Sinfield is IMO the equal certainly of Schofield and possibly even Hanley, I'd like to bet no one not involved in RL south of Doncaster has heard of him.
I do think Super League has been bad for the game but there's no going back. But given that we are in a hole the least we could do is to stop digging! At least make the game recogniseable to fans of other sports as being based in the British tradition. We aren't Americans and we aren't Ausses. Our players have no SOO to motivate them to better things, we need the stimulous that P&R gives. ATM many of them are in a comfort zone.
What superb coverage of the 1995 World Cup? Do you mean the live coverage being restricted to the final, semis and the England v Australia group game? The rest of the competition was ignored, other than brief highlights late at night. There was a pre-final review programme, but that was a last-minute thing after the tournament had captured the public's imagination. The BBC's coverage was dreadful.
