Weighing water usage at a cheese plant against usage on agriculture farms is like comparing gas consumption in a Honda Civic to a fuel-guzzling sport utility vehicle.
Suffice it to say a cheese plant comparatively gets good water mileage. Water experts also say water extracted from milk to make cheese can be reused for irrigation on area farms.
"Really, we're conserving water here," Clovis Industrial Development Corporation executive director Chase Gentry said. "The plant is really going to be putting back more water than they're ever pumping out of the ground."
The Glanbia southwest plant to set up shop near the Roosevelt and Curry County line will produce about 400,000 more gallons of water a day than it will consume, according to Gene Hendrick, the president of the New Mexico Rural Development Council.
Hendrick, a consultant for the Clovis/Curry County Chamber of Commerce, noted a cheese plant uses about half the water a farmer uses for crops in the same land mass.
The new plant will rest on what is currently about 2,840 acres of farmland, Hendrick said, and will use about 1 million gallons of water daily.
About 750,000 gallons of that water will go to a treatment plant. And since milk is 88 percent water, about 680,000 gallons of water will be extracted from the 6.5 million pounds of milk the plant will use daily to process the cheese, Hendrick noted.
Currently, none of the water from area milk producers is recycled in Curry and Roosevelt counties, Hendrick said.
More dairies may come to the area thanks to the extra business, but in Roosevelt and Curry counties, agriculture uses more than 95 percent of the area water, local officials say.
Hendrick estimated a vast majority of that water goes to irrigation for cropland, not to the dairies.
"Everybody thinks dairies are the big water users, and that's just not true," Hendrick said. "The big water users are the crop farmers."
There are 62 dairies in Roosevelt and Curry counties, according to Gentry.

…well, sort of!
Today, Estefan Enterprises and the Nederlander Organization announced they have begun to develop and produce a new Broadway show, inspired by the music made famous by International superstar Gloria Estefan and her husband musician/producer and entrepreneur Emilio Estefan.
The musical will be set in a way that tells the Estefans' riveting life story detailing their journey all the way from Cuba to superstardom. Additional elements will be announced and worked through with a creative team that will be assigned at a later date.
With seven Grammy Awards and over 100 million albums sold worldwide, Gloria Estefan is the most successful crossover performer in the history of Latin music. No lie!
Don't tell me you don't know her hits — "Conga," The Rhythm is Going To Get You" and "1, 2, 3″ among others. GLORIA is a celebratory favorite around the G-L-O-B-E!
She was won and been honored with practically a bajillion awards over the course of her career — including the American Music Award for Lifetime Achievement, MTV Music Video Awards, BMI Songwriter of the Year, and more and more and more. She was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and has received multiple Billboard Awards for her many chart-topping hits.
Her hubby, Emilio Estefan, is a world-renowned music, television and film producer who has been instrumental in shaping, developing and directing the careers of his superstar wife, as well as Shakira, Ricky Martin, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony and Jon Secada. With a resume that includes over 30 Grammy nominations and 19 Grammy Awards, Estefan has experimented and pushed the envelope of blending Latin, pop and world rhythms creating a unique style and personality that has created chart-topping worldwide hits.
"We are very excited to partner with the Nederlander Organization and Bernie Yuman to, after almost a decade of planning and developing, bring our music and life story to Broadway," said Gloria and Emilio Estefan. "We are very excited to share this story, which is based on hope, determination and the belief that with hard work and passion, our dreams can become our reality. Our music has been a true reflection of who we are, where we came from and the journey that has brought us to where we are today. Our cultural roots, our life-defining challenges and the rewards that come with believing in yourself and striving for that which you believe in wholeheartedly, will be the foundation for this theatrical production. Sharing our life story through music will give us a new opportunity to honor our roots and, hopefully, to be able to inspire generations to come."
Are you excited about this news? Will you be buying tickets to see Gloria Estefan & Emilio Estefan's life story unfold on Broadway?

Early or not, voting is a vital duty
Municipal elections will be held Tuesday in Elkins and Belington, giving voters a chance to make their voices heard at the local level.
We encourage all registered voters in the two towns to cast their ballots and take part in the democratic process. Of course, some voters have already cast their ballots by taking advantage of the early voting opportunities.
The last chance for the towns' residents to vote early is today. Early voting will be available at both Elkins City Hall and Belington City Hall from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. today.
In Elkins, City Clerk Sutton Stokes said more than 200 people have voted early, which surpassed the number of early votes cast in the last few elections.
In Belington, however, not a single voter had cast an early ballot by Friday morning, officials said.
The reasons for the disparity in early voting in the two towns probably has to do with competition on the ballot. In Belington, only one City Council race is contested, with incumbent Mayor Jody Haller and three council members running unopposed.
In Elkins, however, Councilmen Van Broughton and Mark Scott are challenging incumbent Mayor Duke Talbott, and two City Council seats are contested. Stokes said there seems to be a great deal of interest in those races, which is driving the early voting turnout.
Whether you vote early today or go to the polls Tuesday, it's important that we all take seriously our responsibility as citizens. Voting is the single act that best characterizes the American way of life, and it's something that many people around the world would love to be able to do. Let's not take it for granted.

Glynns Creek Golf Course
Long Grove, Iowa
June 7-10, 2004
Woods takes a 1-stroke lead after firing opening-round 71
LONG GROVE, Iowa â Three players are jammed atop the boys division leaderboard at the Nike Golf Junior at Quad Cities. Scott Pinckney of Anthem, Ariz., Michael Amato of Highland Mills, N.Y., and Morgan Hoffmann of Wyckoff, N.J., each shot rounds of 4-under-par 68.
Cheyenne Woods of Phoenix, Ariz., fired a 1-under-par 71 and holds a 1-stroke lead in the girls division. Brianna Do of Lakewood, Calif., and Tia Gannon of Hilton Head Island, S.C., shot even-par 72 and are tied for second.
The Nike Golf Junior at Quad Cities is a 54-hole stroke play event conducted by the American Junior Golf Association at Glynns Creek Golf Course. The tournament features 84 of the nationâs premier junior golfers, ages 12-15, from 24 states and Canada.
âI played really solid,â said Hoffmann, the who is making just his third AJGA appearance. âI wasnât driving the ball that well but my irons were perfect.â
The 14-year-old Hoffmann had five birdies and one bogey while hitting 15-of-18 greens in regulation, but couldnât wrestle away sole possession of first place. After starting on hole No. 10, Amato had six one-putt greens and fired a 3-under-par 33 on the front-nine. Pinckney matched a front nine 34 with a 34 on the back to complete the three-way tie at 68.
âI had a lesson with my coach before coming here and he got me thinking the right way to make putts,â Amato said. âNow I have to forget about today and stay in the present.â
Woods, the niece of former AJGA Player of the Year and current PGA Tour star Tiger Woods, said consistency was the reason she was able to post the dayâs low round.
âI had a birdie at No. 4 but three-putted No. 8 to drop me to even,â said Woods, who is playing in just her second AJGA tournament. âI was really consistent on the back-nine.â
All players battled a course made difficult by thick rough and gusty winds, which put a premium on accuracy from tee to green.
âThe wind was really a factor today,â Hoffmann said. âBut some people do play better in this kind of weather.â
The American Junior Golf Association is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the overall growth and development of young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf. The AJGA has a membership (boys and girls ages 12-18) of approximately 5,000 junior golfers from 50 states and 30 foreign countries.
Titleist, the AJGAâs National Sponsor, has been the catalyst and driving force behind the Associationâs success since 1989. Rolex Watch USA, a supporter of the AJGA since 1983, became the inaugural AJGA Premier Partner in 2004.
Second-round tee times will begin at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday off of Nos. 1 and 10 tees. For more information on the Nike Golf Junior at Quad Cities, contact the AJGA Tournament Headquarters at (563) 328-3284.

You might wonder about your chances of developing cancer. News reports can make it sound as if every day something is found to dramatically raise your risk. Sorting through all the information and figuring out what's valid can be tricky.
What is risk?
When scientists talk about risk, they're referring to a probability -- the chance that something may occur, but not a guarantee that it will. For example, if you flip a coin, there is one chance in two, or a 50 percent chance, that the coin will land heads up.
Risk estimates for cancer and other diseases are determined by studying large groups of people. Researchers focus on the probability that any person or category of people will develop the disease over a certain period of time. They also look to see what characteristics or behaviors are associated with increased or decreased risk.
How is risk expressed?
Risk is generally divided into two categories: absolute risk and relative risk.

Top Moment #9: Cliff Lee Goes the Distance in His First Start as a Phillie
Doesn't it feel like Lee is somehow haunting this team? Take a trip back to July 31 when Cliff Lee was the New Guy on the Philadelphia Phillies, when the buzz was reaching its apex following the pre-deadline deal that brought him over from Cleveland. The Phils didn't get the guy at the top of their list (Roy Halladay), but did acquire someone with a solid pedigree. No one was sure exactly what Lee would bring to the table, but it was apparent that moving to the NL would give him a leg up on the competition.
His first start took place against the San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park along the Bay. Lee wasted no time acclimating himself to the NL, tossing a complete game, four-hitter, throwing 109 pitches – 76 for strikes – all while re-energizing a team that had been lacking that big-game starter they could rely on for the postseason. In one fell swoop, Lee became an ace, and from that point forward, became a cult hero in Philadelphia following the 5-1 victory.
I won't soon forget where I was for this game. Standing in Lucy's Hat Shop on 3rd & Market, the place erupted as Lee closed the game out by inducing a 4-6-3 double-play, complements (or compliments) of Bengie Molina. As we rejoiced a little louder than usual for a July 31 game, the seeds had then been planted. The Phillies were in the process of running away with the NL East, as they took a six game lead. Lee was in the process of sheer domination, as he would go on to win five straight starts, beginning with this demolition of the Giants. The team, starting July 31, became the team to beat once again in the Senior Circuit. All thanks to Cliff Lee.
51 Comments
That 1st Cliff Lee start was DEFINITELY one of the most exciting games in the regular season for us in a loooooooong time, and the best was still yet to come once the Post-Season rolled around. Cliff Lee will always have a very special place in the hearts of many Phillies fans, and how many other players with that short of a tenure here can say the same?
Wishing him the best in Seattle, and who knows? Maybe there could be a Phillies VS Mariners World Series!
Cliff Lee immediately put the Phils in the position to win the championship. He was the tonic to success and came at the perfect time. I hope and expect Roy Halladay to give us even more than Mr. Lee. But I will always remember Cliff Lee's clutch performances and the excitement he brought to Phillies' baseball.
cliff who?
Vlad "The Implaler" to Texas for 1y5m. What a joke.
The Dipsy
Excuse me. 6m. What a joke.
The Dipsy
good for Rangers or bad for Rangers?
If we signed Vlad for 1y/6m how would you feel?
The Dipsy
We don't need him and we don't have a DH so I wouldn't be happy.
Yes, but, don't you think that is pretty cheap for a 34 year old .321 career hitter?
The Dipsy
Vlad has knees like silly putty. His bat is explosive. If his knees hold up it will be one of the best deals in baseball. If not, it was worth the gamble. He is a future Hall of Fame talent. Wish him well.
I'd like him at 1/6 if I could make room for him in a good deal. You'd have to trade Ibanez if you sign Vlad because he wouldn't want to be a 4th wheel. Not sure what the market for Ibanez is. Isn't Vlad a downgrade fielding wise for Ibanez? I know he was a stud in his day, but as mentioned his wheels aren't to good.
He would be a defensive downgrade, and if he played defense, he would probably be limited due to injuries and required time off. He is a classic example of a great hitter who prolongs his career in the American league.
I would kill to trade Raul Ibanez. I mean, look, the guy is a good hitter. He is. He just costs too damn much. Surprised he got hurt last year? Thats what happens with old guys. They get hurt. To be honest, I would give him away just get the money off the books and just sign a one year guy.
The Dipsy
Don't we all miss Cliff Lee?? Wait until July and you'll see what I mean. Amro is killing this team to sooth his ego.
Vlad signing with Texas made me wonder if we could get Thome to round out our bench with some power for cheap. Texas was the only team I was hearing that was going after Jim which I doubt they would do now that they have Vlad.
On another note, can we please stop putting Lee moments in? Every single one is torture as it brings back up the thoughts of having Halladay AND Lee. 😛
I would not be surprised to see Thome end up in Kansas City. I don't think he would come back here because I believe he wants a shot at 600 career homers. As a DH, he would see many more at-bats than as a pinch hitter. He would also help the Royals offensively.
I did not read the post above because: A) Its by a guy named SpankYankee; B) It was about the Yankees (I could tell by the first sentence); and 3) It was too long.
If you wanna rib the other guy, assuming that was the purpose, you at least should write something that he will wanna read.
The Dipsy
Hey Spanky Yankee — would you like some Yankee Toe Jam ?
Forget Thome, the Phils nebch players are all signed. If anything they'll sign a reliever or a possible starter. Unless I could get a smoltz, Sheetz, or someone with an incentive laiden contract I'd save the money for the trade deadline if need be. Only because we know they're on a budget.
I was at that Lee game in SF. Definitely the best game I attended all year. It's always fun being the only one in the entire stadium cheering the whole game.
Crap just read the Mets are looking to sign Pinero…great another sinkerballer to face. Though he's looking for the same deal Wolf got with the Brewers…29.5 million for 3 years. Perhaps not a good deal for anyone but that doesn't preclude them from doing something stupid. I just don't want another night watching our line-up suffer from sinkerballitsis.
Watched the game in a hotel bar in Atlantic City while hookers were getting busted all around me. Good times!
I pray the Mets sign Piniero for that money.
The Dipsy
"That's what happens with old guys. They get hurt."
Ibanez being an "old guy" has LESS to do with him getting hurt than the fact that ….HE JUST SIMPLY GOT HURT…plain and simple. Pat Burrell is 4 years younger than Raul….and spent MORE time on the DL…and was LESS productive last year than Raul. So that's a pretty lame argument.
If you're saying that once you turn a certain age…let's say 35…"old" in a baseball player's life…that you have a BETTER chance of getting hurt…that's probably true..
But you can't just say…"oh, well, the guy's old…so…he's gonna get hurt…it's a given.
There's a TON of "old guys" out there that I would rather have on my team…because of their hustle and attitude…and their experience…
Hell..earlier in this thread you even suggested Vlad…who is "old"…and a worse fielder than Ibanez…
Another thing…
"I would just give him away and get the money off the books and just sign a one year guy."
Ibanez is basically a one year guy anyway…because the chance of him being traded next off-season or at the deadline in 2011 …is a defin ite possibility….assuming Brown is ready..
Also, your suggestion that we "get him off the books" is exactly what happened with Cliff Lee…he's now off the books…because we couldn't afford him…and we traded him close to the height of his value..
So now you are saying we should basically do the same thing with Ibanez…trade him to get him off the books….that's what you argued against with Lee.
So 34 year old Vlad Guerrero can only get a 1-year deal while 34 year old Placido Polanco gets a 3-year deal.
Alright Chuck. Obviously, you're just trying to be argumentative. But I'll bite. Freeing up the money but just getting rid of Ibanez for prospects, which we could never do because no team would ever do it, would free up money that we could use else where. The Lee comparison is flawed because, unlike Ibanez, we could not find a suitable replacement for Lee. There are one year guys that could fill in for Ibanez just fine. Lee is a Cy Young stud who was cheap. Ibanez is an overpaid professional hitter who was hurt the whole second half of last season. Would you mind Jermaine Dye for a year? How about Johnny Damon? These guys will sign one year deals at under 8m. The tons of old guys that have hustle and attitude do you no good if they are on the DL.
The Dipsy
34 year old Placido Polanco can play the field and run the bases
34 year old Vlad Guerrero hasn't been able to do either of those for the past 2+ seasons
Ibanez isn't going anywhere until we have a player in-house that can replace him … that player isn't Ben Francisco, of John Mayberry Jr
Whenever Domonic Brown is ready to play in the majors, that will be when Ibanez trade rumors heat up .. it will be sometime between June 2010-and-June 2011
until then.. can we be thankful that our lineup is awesome.. regardless of his salary.. we're so good that Raul Ibanez hits 7th for us!!!
I never even thought of trading Ibanez for prospects, but seriously what would it bring in? I don't think we'd get anything close to what Lee brought in. How about Ibanez and Blanton ina package? Would anyone really want to shell out 18 million and top prospects? I don't know the answers, but Lee/Damon or Lee/Vlad vs Blanton/Ibanez? similar money, but could we have gotten similar prospects? Intriging.
So 34 year-old Mark Derosa can only get a 2 year deal, while 34 year-old Placido Polanco gets a 3-year deal.
Ibanez doesn't have much trade value because of his massive contract. Why would a team go out and pay Ibanez $23 mil for 2 years AND give up prospects?
Thats the point Griffin. Nobody would. Nobody would take Ibanez on their payroll right now. Period. Joe – Sadly, no one would take Ibanez and Blanton either. I would like to see the Phils sign Blanton to a three year deal. I like the guy.
The Dipsy
Mark DeRosa has had half the career of Placido Polanco
so yea he could only get a 2 year deal, while polanco gets 3
So coming into this offseason, you thought Placido Polanco deserved the 3rd longest (after Holliday and Bay) contract of any position player?!
It's okay to admit that Ruben gave another player too many years. Admitting it doesn't make you a whiner or a Phillies hater. Amaro gave Ibanez an extra year. He gave Polanco and extra year and for some odd reason, decided to extend that same courtesy to Danys Baez.
When the Phils are unable to re-sign Jayson Werth because a 36 year old Ibanez is making $11.5 mil then maybe people will see why it's not wise to give the extra year every single time.
There are probably a few teams that wouldn't mind having Raul Ibanez at $11 M this year
but they wouldn't also give up prospects for him …
When we would've missed out on Ibanez last year, had we not given him that 3rd year
and probably missed the playoffs had it not been for Ibanez carrying the team in the 1st half of last season ..
Its not like guys are agreeing to contracts, and then Amaro gives them an extra year just for the hell of it …
What does the length of other players' contracts have to do with Polanco?
Holliday and Bay aren't in the same category.. DeRosa, Figgins, and Beltre are
We reportedly offered Beltre a a 3 year/$24 M deal that he turned down
Figgins i think got 4 years at $36 M
and DeRosa got 2 at $12
I would say that value wise, Polanco fits right at what we signed him for
What I think you're getting at Griffin is that
You would rather the Phillies had signed Mark DeRosa to play 3b, for the next TWO years at $6 M… than Placido Polanco to play 3b, for the next THREE years at $6 M
If that's the case, I couldn't disagree more…
You're joking, right? You want Johnny Damon instead of Raul Ibanez?
Damon can't throw worth sh!t…granted he has a similiar BA to Raul's….288 vs Raul's .285
Jermaine Dye has a career .274 BA…so it's not terrible by any means. His career fielding is .981 vs. Rauls .987….so again…kind of comparable..
But the point has been made…Raul isn't going ANYWHERE til Dom Brown is ready to take over….and I guess that's projected for 2011…
So…at that point….hypothetically, Ibanez' $11.5 MM is off the books for 2011….and that possibly clears salary for Werth.
And can't anybody realize how much of an upgrade Polanco is??…both at the plate …and with his versatility in the field…the guy can play 3rd, 2nd, and I'm sure 1st Base and Left Field respectably…if you asked him to do it.
The difference is that Beltre is 30, Figgins is 31 and Polanco is 34. Polanco is regressing already and to offer him 3 years and expect him not to continue to regress is silly. The Phils shouldn't be paying Polanco based on what he did 4 or 5 years ago, they should be paying him based on what he is going to do in the future.
And I keep hearing how the Phillies would have lost Ibanez if they had not given the extra year. My question is: Lost him to whom? The Cubs wanted Bradley. The Mets were the other team people thought were interested-they weren't. If they were, they would have at least made an offer to another corner OF (Abreu, Dunn). The Phillies bid against themselves. The contract looks fine in year 1, but it's year 3 that will hurt. Also, Ibanez hit .251 after May 1st, so instead of saying "Ibanez had a great year" can we just say "Ibanez had a great April"?
Don M, I hate Derosa, but Derosa and Polanco are at least comparable, are the same age and yet Polanco got the extra year. It's just a pattern with Amaro.
I'd rather have Beltre at 2 years and 14 mil (assuming his option gets picked up) than Polanco for 3 years at 18.
DeRosa is a career utility player.. Polanco started as that, then turned himself in an All-Star and Gold Glove 2b.
We tried to get Beltre at $24 M over 3 years… and he turned it down
I would also rather have him at 2 years and $14 M
but that's not even a possiblilty so why bring it up as an option?
It's not a possibility to get Beltre at 2 years $14 M because Amaro already signed Polanco. Had Amaro waited then Beltre's demands would have obviously gone down to the point where he would have signed that 3 year $24 mil deal. But Amaro didn't wait and wound up overpaying for an inferior player.
last offseason, the teams interested in Ibanez included
Phillies, Cubs, Mets, Angels, Nationals, Rays and Braves
in 2008, the Mets and Cubs were both looking into deals to trade for Ibanez.. last year the Braves got Garett Anderson and traded for Nate McLouth so they were definitely in the market for an OF .. but have been trying to cut payroll over the last few seasons
Its pretty easy to say that we should have waited, and waited, and waited, and waited on players that already turned down your contract offer.
Smart GM's turn their attention elsewhere, to players that want to play for their organization..
good thing we've got a smart GM who went out an improved the team!
If those teams were interested in a corner OF, then why did Abreu sign for peanuts (1 year, $5 mil)?
Ibanez had a great April, May and part of June….THEN he got hurt and went on the DL..
When he came back it obviously took some time for him to find his groove again…down the stretch…he began to hit again…so that .251 doesn't really reflect how he finished the season.
Don M, if Amaro turned his attention from Beltre to Polanco and got Polanco to agree to a 2-year deal, then fine. But why jump at the chance to sign Polanco for 3 years? Wait him out and see which one comes crawling back to you for an opportunity to play in a hitter's park and win a WS ring.
Ibanez broke down because he's a 37 year-old player who can no longer DH. Unfortunately, I think we can expect a few more of those nagging injuries in his age 38 and 39 years.
And I'm sure we'll get some "nagging injuries" from some of our younger players as well…all the more reason that Polanco's versatility helps…he can spell Chase at second….giving Dobbs a chance to play and stay sharp
Francisco helps in the outfield….ALL the outfielders…so they don't get as tired…and then HE satys sharp.
Age has less to do with injuries than how a player approaches the game, what his regimen is, etc, etc. From what I can see…and I don't know all the details…but Raul Ibanez works pretty hard at staying in shape and in preparing for games.
Chuck, I agree that Raul is extremely hard-working and is apparently a great guy. But studies have shown that as a player ages, his injury risk increases exponentially. There are always outliers, and hopefully Ibanez is one of them, but he's more of a health risk now than he was years ago.
I'm actually petty happy with the off season so far. One key factor the phils have this year they didn't have last year is OF depth. Fransisco for a full year and Gloud should allow Charlie to rest Ibanez, Vic and Werth enough so that they don't break down. Charlie didn't have those options last year.
I really have nothing to add, y'all know how I feel about him, so I'll just mention that he looks SOOOO hot in that picture! Seriously, hottest Phillie since Dr. Jim Lonborg. ooooo-eeeeeee!!!!

So I'm a stay at home mom and would like to wean my 13 month old daughter. We are at 3 feedings right now: early morning, nap and bed time. Last week I managed to eliminate the afternoon feeding. I wanted my DD to drink milk from a bottle or sippy cup, but no such luck. She drinks water only from a sippy cup and refuses to drink anything else from it. I pumped and gave her BM from the sippy cup, but she would not take it neither from me nor my husband.
I prepare her oatmeal with cow's milk and spoon feed her, which she likes but would not drink just milk from the cup.
She was bottle fed when I was at work, but when I quit I started to BF only which was much easier and lot's nicer for both of us. I wish I kept 1 bottle feeding session per day and would not have such issues now.
Any ideas?

Grouplove's new album is Spreading Rumours, which you might think is rude, but it spelled British-style with a U, so it's actually super-classy.
Cobie Smulders stars in "The Intervention", which is all about a big couples weekend getaway that turns out to be a secret intervention for one of the couple's marriage. It's like a surprise party mixed with relationship therapy.
In "Obvious Child" Jenny Slate stars as a comedian who's having trouble growing up. Man, it's a good thing we don't know any of THOSE. ::cough::
Ian Edwards's new comedy album, 100% Half-Assed is the debut release from Team Coco Records. Better luck next time, Bono & Justin Timberlake!
Our pal Jack White's new album is Lazaretto, which is an old-time quarantine station for maritime travellers. Jack White: musical genius AND very informative!
Amber Stevens stars in "22 Jump Street" as Jonah Hill's love interest. Everyone loves a funny guy!
In "Perception", Eric McCormack plays a paranoid schizophrenic neurosurgeon who helps the FBI solve crimes. Man, if we had a nickel each time we heard that plot…
Michael Lewis' book Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt is all about how high-frequency trading on Wall Street is rigged in favor of the rich & powerful. Read it and get informed and REALLY ticked off, too.
The very funny Roy Wood, Jr. does stand-up AND stars on "Sullivan & Son." We think he just offered to cater our show too, he's so industrious!

Re: Tony finishes fourth time for a championship
ndunn wrote:This time I have to challenge the remark about Tony not knowing about 86 wins. I think he knows very well what wins are. He has championships in several different venues going back to when he was a youngster. But I suppose when your a dyed in the wool Gordon fan then it's fun to go on someone elses site (since Gordon doesn't have one) and berate the man who pays for this site. Is Tony going to go for 4? Oh great heavens I hope so as it might just shut some people up. By the way Mr. Gordon praised Tony last night in the showing of the Blues show in Chicago and put him in the catagory of AJ Foyt, Andretti and a few others. That has to account for something.
I don't find fun in it, I call defending my driver. Ya know I do like Newman. Hences why I'm here also gordon has several wins and championships prior to NASCAR. If I Remeber correctly, he had over 600 wins before the age of 16. Plus the 86 wins are CUP. Not another series or venues.

Pringle CEOS Club meets for October
Seven members of the Pringle Tree CEOS Club held their regular monthly meeting on Oct. 2 in the fellowship hall of the Pleasant Valley UMC on Hackers Creek.
President Julia Marple called the meeting to order at 1 p.m. with members reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and giving the flag salute. Barbara Byrd gave the roll call.
Izola Marple was in charge of devotions with a reading, "What is a Farmer," and ending with a prayer of St. Francis, "Just For Today Only." Secretary Barbara Byrd read the minutes from the September meeting.
Patty Simons gave the treasurer's report with both reports approved as read. Iris McLain, lesson leader, presented a very informative lesson from the West Virginia University Extension Service entitled "West Virginia Wonders." Our wonderful state of West Virginia with 55 counties has many hidden treasures to discover along with the state's popular tourist attractions.
Amazingly, these tourism treasures contribute to $4.27 billion in visitor spending, 45,000 jobs, and $580 million in state and local taxes. But there is another side of West Virginia that is off the beaten track – the natural wonders of West Virginia.
Her highest hill is Spruce Knob located at 4,863 feet; we also have Seneca Rocks, Ice Mountain, and Castle Rock.
West Virginia has rivers that create cascades like Blackwater Falls.
The New River is actually the oldest river in the United States and it's known for rafting and its 1,700-foot single span steel bridge. In addition to rivers, the state overflows with an abundance of lakes, beautiful trees, flowers, wildlife and rare animals. Love those West Virginia Hills!
Members discussed t-shirts they plan to have made for wearing at group functions. Iris McLain, hostess, served finger food refreshments to Anne Sterneman, Patty Simons, Izola Marple, Julia Marple, Jeanie Claypool and Barbara Byrd.
The next meeting will be held Wednesday at the Pleasant Valley Church with Izola Marple as hostess. Members will bring a covered dish for the Thanksgiving meal starting at noon.

PRINCESS ANNE, MD - (Aug. 21, 2013) - The Harry Potter generation that descended on UMES Wednesday morning must have felt as though the campus was the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Photo by Jim Glovier
A rare, late-summer fog enshrouded lower Delmarva just as early arriving freshmen prepared to move into residence halls.
Photo by Jim Glovier
The first freshman and his family in the parking lot adjacent to Nuttle Hall was Corey Bell of Scotch Plains, N.J., which they left at 2:30 a.m. to make the trek to Princess Anne.
Bell was experiencing the usual emotions of first-year college students moving away from home.
"I'm a bit nervous, but I'm also excited," he said.
Bell, who plans to major in engineering, picked UMES because he "wanted to try something different. This is a lot different than New Jersey. I'm relaxed here."
Bell's mother, Jennifer, said she, too, was "excited for him to go away from home. It means he's starting to grow up, and I'm proud of him. I think he'll do just fine."
The Bells were familiar with UMES; several of Corey's cousins are alumni. He'll be a fourth-generation college student in his immediate family.
"We feel like this is just the right fit for Corey," said Howard Bell, his father. "We're very comfortable with him coming here."
UMES President Juliette Bell, no relation to the New Jersey Bells, was at Court Plaza Hall early greeting new students and helping a few get settled in.
"It's important for me to be here … and meet our new students," Bell said. "This is always an exciting day."
Jason Browne of Hempstead, N.Y. was among the lucky early arrivals getting a helping hand from Dr. Bell, who quickly struck up a rapport with his parents, sister and maternal grandmother.
"She is so down-to-earth," Sondra Browne said of Dr. Bell. "Her being here, embracing us – and him, quieted our spirit."
The Brownes posed for Kodak-moment family photos with Dr. Bell in Jason's third-floor room.
Browne said he considered two other colleges but chose UMES to study business because he got a vibe that the campus was "close-knit, family oriented. I'm a family-oriented kind of guy, as you can see."
Was he at all apprehensive?
"It's all happening so fast," Browne said. "I'll be fine."
UMES student leaders and athletes were out in full force, helping moms and dads and freshmen haul Rubbermaid tubs, flat screen TVs, dorm refrigerators, ironing boards and mirrors into the new "home-away-from-home" digs.
Sophomore Seth Ward was among those enthusiastically lending a hand.
"It's been really gratifying getting to meet the new Hawks," he said. "I wish I had gotten help like this last year, when I moved in."

New leadership emerges for House DemocratsVermont Press Bureau | December 10,2012
JewettThe voluntary departure of House Majority Leader Lucy Leriche has prompted a shake-up of the 96-member Democratic caucus leadership team.
Rep. Willem Jewett, who spent the last two years as Leriches deputy, won unanimous election to the top post in the caucus Saturday. In a victory speech, the five-term Ripton Democrat reflected on party successes over the past decade.
When I joined this caucus it was strong, but we were 69 strong, Jewett said. I like rearranging those numbers a little bit.
Jewett said that voters have rewarded Democrats allegiance to Vermont values, and that the caucus over the next two years will be remembered less for what legislation it passes and more for how it conducts itself.
How we do our work is perhaps more important than exactly what we do, Jewett said. What exact bills we pass, theyre going to matter less than how we conduct ourselves.
Saturdays caucus featured a rare contested race for assistant majority leader between Tess Taylor of Barre City and Rebecca Ellis of Waterbury.
Also known as the whip, the assistant majority leader is often responsible for finding out where members stand on various pieces of legislation, and perhaps compelling them to rethink their stance.
The vote featured an interesting debate over whether to accept the proxy votes sent by seven House Democrats who were unable to attend Saturdays caucus. Rep. Mitzi Johnson of Grand Isle said the essence of the body and the power of the institution is in the ability to exchange ideas.
I know that my mind has been changed more than once, even when I didnt intend for it to be, by listening to nominating speeches or floor debate, said Johnson, who opposed accepting the seven proxy votes.
Rep. Michel Consejo, of Sheldon, said that after an election cycle in which they pleaded with voters to cast a ballot any which way they could, it would be hypocritical for Democrats to disenfranchise fellow members unable to make to Montpelier on a Saturday.
I find it puzzling that we would have been encouraging people to vote in any way, shape or form we can think of ... and when it comes to us somehow that doesnt work, he said.
The caucus voted narrowly to accept the proxy ballots, which in the end had no effect on the outcome. Taylor won the contest, 49-37.
Taylor said last week that as House Democrats grow their ranks, they need to make sure individuals can find their own voice without devolving into chaos.
Weve grown so much in numbers and everybody that comes in has really a lot to offer, Taylor said. But its a lot to work with such a big body and make sure we are really clear about what our goals are and what we can accomplish in 16 to 18 weeks.
Kate Webb of Shelburne was elected to serve as deputy assistant majority leader, a job in which shell be responsible largely for communications and drafting talking points.
Ellis will serve as the caucus clerk.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt. Full StoryVermont Attorney General Bill Sorrell plans to join the U.S. Full StoryMONTPELIER Gov. Full Story

The federal government reopened Thursday, Oct. 16 after Congress passed a short-term budget deal to fund the government through Jan. 15.
As a result, federal agencies like the National Park Service have been allowed to reopen. At least, for now.
Would-be tourists to our national parks, monuments and refuges have met with closed gates and huge disappointment over the past 16 days of the government shutdown.
After 16 disastrous days, the government shutdown is finally over, but only at tremendous cost to America's outdoor recreation economy.
The Wilderness Society and 27 other conservation, recreation and outdoor industry groups have joined together to urge Congress to end the government shutdown.
This week, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would have been celebrating one of the crowning conservation achievements of America.
Yellowstone National Park is located primarily in the state of Wyoming, although it also extends into Montana and Idaho. It was established by Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872.
While Forest Service workers are furloughed, Hollywood filmmakers are unable to secure permits for filming in national forests, which are frequently used in the filming of movies, commercials and television shows.
While each story below is uniquely horrible, there are hundreds more cases of devastated businesses, distressed workers and disappointed vacationers -- and these are on top of the stories that our unjustly victimized furloughed workers would tell.

Penguins skate past Bruins, 3-2AP Photo
Bostons Nathan Horton, left, and Pittsburghs Jarome Iginla exchange punches during Saturdays game in Boston.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia Maxim Lapierre scored in the shootout, Cory Schneider made 33 saves through overtime and Vancouver clinched a playoff berth with Saturdays 2-1 shootout victory over Detroit.
Schneider stopped all three attempts in the shootout for the Canucks, who won their seventh straight at home and prevented the Red Wings from breaking the playoff threshold.
Vancouvers victory also guaranteed the idle Los Angeles Kings of a playoff spot.
Lapierre, with Vancouvers last attempt in the shootout, beat Jimmy Howard with a forehand-to-backhand deke, roofing the puck into the net.
Alex Edler scored for Vancouver and Damien Brunner had a goal for Detroit in the first period.
OTTAWA James Reimer put in a monstrous effort with 49 saves and Toronto clinched a playoff berth for the first time since 2004 with a win over Ottawa.
James van Riemsdyk scored twice, and Nazem Kadri and Joffrey Lupul also had goals for the Leafs, who needed to earn a point and get a little help from the New York Islanders to make the playoffs.
New York briefly pulled into a tie with Toronto for fifth place in the East with a 5-4 shootout win over Winnipeg before the Leafs (55) moved back ahead by two points.
Jakob Silfverberg scored and Craig Anderson stopped 18 shots for the Senators, who trail the Islanders by a point.
CHICAGO Mikkel Boedker and David Schlemko scored shootout goals to lift Phoenix and a three-game losing streak and preserving its fading playoff hopes with a win over Chicago.
Schlemko beat Corey Crawford with a high shot in the third round of the tiebreaker to end Chicagos seven-game win streak. Rostislav Klesla and Radim Vrbata scored in the first period for Phoenix, which trails Columbus by three points for the final playoff spot with four to play.
Chicago defenseman Brent Seabrook scored two power-play goals in regulation for his first two-goal game this season and second of his career.
Despite the loss, the league-leading Blackhawks have earned a point in 11 straight (9-0-2).
MONTREAL Troy Brouwer and Alex Ovechkin each scored twice as Washington beat Montreal.
Nicklas Backstrom also scored for the Capitals, who had an eight-game winning streak stopped in Ottawa on Thursday but rebounded with their 13th win in 16 games. They stretched their lead over second-place Winnipeg in the Southeast Division to three points with three games to play.
Ovechkin took a step toward a third Rocket Richard Trophy as the NHLs top goal scorer with his 29th and 30th of the season. He has 20 goals in his last 18 games. Max Pacioretty scored for Montreal, which has lost five of its last seven but remains solidly in second place in the East.
WINNIPEG, Manitoba John Tavares scored the winning goal in a shootout to help surging New York put a sent in Winnipegs playoff drive.
Bryan Little tied the game for Winnipeg 4-4 with 2:01 left in regulation seven seconds after Islanders defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky was called for interference.
Michael Grabner, Frans Nielsen, Josh Bailey and Matt Martin scored in regulation for the Islanders, who trail Toronto by two points for fifth place in the East.
Kyle Wellwood had two goals and Zach Bogosian also scored for the Jets, who have 49 points and are one back of the eighth-place Rangers.
NEWARK, N.J. Patrik Elias scored twice and New Jersey kept its faint playoff hopes alive by rallying from a two-goal deficit for a win over Florida.
David Clarkson, whose big check seemed with wake up the Devils after they fell behind 2-0, tallied the go-ahead goal in a game where they welcomed back offensive catalyst Ilya Kovalchuk to the lineup after missing 11 games with a shoulder injury.
Ryan Carter, Stephen Gionta and Dainius Zubrus also scored as New Jersey won its second in a row after a 10-game losing streak (0-6-4). The Devils would have been eliminated with a regulation loss.
Marcel Goc and Brian Campbell scored for the NHL-worst Panthers, who have lost five straight.
RALEIGH, N.C. Wayne Simmonds got his first career hat trick and added an assist to lead Philadelphia to a win over Carolina in a matchup of teams eliminated from playoff contention.
Jakub Voracek and Matt Read also scored for the Flyers, who won for the third time in four games. Steve Mason, playing his fifth game for the Flyers since being acquired from Columbus, made 26 saves.
Simmonds, playing in his 364th career game, also had his first four-point effort.
Jeff Skinner, Justin Faulk and Eric Staal scored for the Hurricanes, who lost for the ninth time in their last 10 home games.

Fresh blueberries stacked in the produce aisle look luscious, and many shoppers are aware of their healthy reputation. "I eat them all the time." "That's one of the best things you can eat." Dr. Orly Avitzur, Consumer Reports medical adviser, says there is science to back up the claims. "Studies suggest that eating berries, including blueberries, is associated with a reduction in blood pressure. Not only that, but it may help stop the growth of cancer cells and stave off memory loss." But if you think you're getting those benefits in packaged foods … think again. "We found products that look like they're loaded with blueberries that are anything but." For instance - this blueberry pancake mix from Krusteaz. There are no blueberries or fruit of any kind in a long list of ingredients. Jamie Kopf "Keep an eye out for disclaimers like 'artificially flavored' and 'imitation blueberries,' which in this case are made of palm oil, cellulose gum, and several dyes. It's very important to check the list of ingredients." And Kellogg's Blueberry Muffin Frosted Mini-Wheats? Blue on the outside, but the only blue thing in the cereal is a dye - blue 2 lake. A Kellogg's company spokesperson says, "The term 'Blueberry Muffin' is used to describe the flavor … and the product is labeled in compliance with laws and regulations." Jamie Kopf "We found some products that prominently display blueberries have only blueberry juice in them, and that comes way down on the list of ingredients, behind sugar and corn syrup." And Ocean Spray's Blueberry Craisins are not dried blueberries at all, but cranberries "infused" with blueberry juice. As with most fruits and vegetables, Consumer Reports says it's best to eat blueberries before they … or their juice … end up in packaged products. ."

Reviews of this property
We had a great Time staying at Ludovic's place! Unfortunatly we arrived a little late, but the lady giving us the keys was so understanding and friendly! The apartment was clean and cosy, very well-located but still calm!! I totally recommend staying in this flat! Thanks Ludovic!
POSITIVE ASPECTS: a lot of helpful accessories for cooking (only the pans were a little old) like microwave, toaster, and for cleaning like a washing-machine. Very quiet neighbourhood. 5 minutes far from the nearest metro (Couronnes). It is the right choice if you have to stay few days and you want to be more free and independent in comparison to a room of an hotel. We overall enjoyed the vacation.
NEGATIVE ASPECTS: the apartment is smaller than what the photos show (but two people can live well), 6 floors of stairs without elevator is a little uncomfortable, there were air drafts from the main door (but the heating managed it), very small bathroom without bidet (we are Italians), 300 euro for the security deposit were too much (I advise the traveler to take pictures of the apartment the first day you arrive to be sure you don't have problems with your security deposit at the end of your stay).
It was a nice and pleasant stay. The flat is quite and clean and there is everything you may need. It is a beautiful and authentic place with charm. There are a few supermarkets around and a big market on Thursday and Friday. Ludovic has a map with helpful informations about the area around. (Restaurants, supermarkets, nice places) Everything went well, Ludovic and Vanessa are very friendly and we had a warm and friendly welcome. We surely will come again.
I stayed in Ludovic's flat for a week.
The flat looks just like what you see in the picture.
Comfortable and cozy.
The location is great, close to the subway station and bus stop.
Two supermarkets near the flat.
Quiet and pleasing neighborhood.
Ludovic was a good host and he was always able to contact, which was really helpful.
Hi!! I was stay this flat for 4 days.
To sum up, it was great. wi-fi is good, don't need to take towels and studio was very quiet.
Especially, I liked small wine bars and restaurants near the Goncourt station.
appartamento delizioso, suggestivo e completo di tutto. Non abbiamo conosciuto il proprietario ma la ragazza che ci ha accolto è stata molto simpatica e precisa. Adatto anche per bellissime passeggiate parigine!
Klein, maar fijn. Zou in de omschrijving wel opnemen dat er geen lift is naar de 6e verdieping. Wij zijn goed ter been en hebben daar geen last van, maar andere mensen misschien wel.
Het is een erg gezellig appartement, met genoeg boeken voor slecht weer.
Hans Hölscher
Es hat alles gut geklappt, Wohnung war wie abgebildet, gute Lage, schöner Ausblick aus dem 6. Stock (manchmal hat ein Aufzug gefehlt ;-)). Kann ich gut weiterempfehlen.
He estado cinco días en septiembre y mi puntuación sobre el apartamento es un 8.
Limpio, agradable , tiene la cama mas cómoda que he probado!!!
El dueño es súper agradable y puntual en los horarios, facilita mucho con sus indicaciones para llegar desde aeropuerto...
El barrio es agradable con sitios diversos para comer y cenar y tomarse unas cervecitas...
Yo lo recomendaría a mis amigos cuando vayan a París!!!
Yo volveré!!!!

Everything old is new again
July 2, 2013 —
I'm no hoarder, but I'm not keen on throwing things away either. As a result, I am completely on board with recycling, reusing and (my new personal favorite) repurposing. Wiktionary.org defines repurpose as "to reuse for a different purpose on a long-term basis," which includes altering the original, e.g. "the church was repurposed as a nightclub by removing the pews." Repurposing is big here in the Upper Delaware River Valley and I often stop to admire the clever projects that my friends and neighbors have produced. Whether it's candlesticks from old wine bottles, benches refashioned from wooden pallets, or fridge magnets out of old keyboards, endless ideas surface daily and the scope of some projects are inspiring.
While making plans to attend a reading of Harold Pinter's "A Slight Ache" in Liberty, NY, I checked in with Liberty Free Theatre's artistic director and founder Paul Austin.
Knowing that the company is on the move and presenting shows in a variety of locations, I wanted to be sure where I was headed. "Tonight's reading is the second in a series of events presented in collaboration with the Liberty Museum and Arts Center (www.libertymuseum.com) Paul told me, "while awaiting completion of the new theatre space, anticipated to be ready sometime next spring." Recalling my theatre history classes from college, I was unsure if my interest was leaning more toward Pinter or the new space that Austin and Co. are readying, but as it turned out, both were pretty interesting. As for the reading, "A Slight Ache" was written for radio presentation in 1958 and has been described as a "tragicomic" play that "concerns a married couple's dreams and desires, focusing mostly on the husband's fears of the unknown, of growing old, and of the 'Other' as a threat to his self-identity." (www.wikipedia.com). Austin and Karen Young are consummate performers, and although I was often tempted to close my eyes and absorb the words (as originally intended) it was impossible to take my eyes off of Young, who is riveting. Her impressive resume ("Torch Song Trilogy," "The Sopranos") makes sense, given her nuanced, layered and incredibly charming performance in Pinter's confusing, wordy and unpredictable ode to manners and marriage. Austin was (as always) equally up to the challenge and if anyone can make Pinter accessible, it's these two.

Expanding the zone, but does anyone care?
Colossus Minerals announced further drill results from their Serra Pelada project in Brazil. The drill holes which are testing the edge of the Central Mineralized Zone (CMZ) continued to demonstrate the potential of the deposit. Hole SPD-182 demonstrated that the CMZ is tucked in closer to the nose of the folded structure, returning 3.4 metres grading 13.28 g/t gold, 0.02 g/t platinum and 0.06 g/t palladium.
Underground delineation drilling has commenced from a new drill bay that is located 45 metres lower and half the distance to the mineralized zone. Highlights from the underground include Hole SPUD-018 that intercepted 0.8 metres grading 23.07 g/t gold and 3.6 metres grading 24.37 g/t gold, 0.28 g/t platinum and 0.88 g/t palladium. Overall, the results continue to delineate and extend the CMZ mineralization, while demonstrating localized increases in widths in certain areas.
Recently, CSI updated the market on development activitie s at Serra Pelada. The company commented that it remains on track to start initial production early in the second half of 2013 at an initial rate of 250 tonnes per day tpd and continue the ramp up phase throughout the remainder of 2013 to 500 tpd. The current plan envisages two active mining faces for 250 tpd of production, three to five mining faces for 500 tpd of production and six to nine mining faces for 1,000 tpd of production.
The company expects to achieve 1,000 tpd of production by the end of the first quarter of 2014. Shares of CSI have been down sharply over the past few weeks as the market focuses on the soft gold market, poor environment for juniors and milestone risks for Serra Pelada. Also weighing on the shares is the possibility that the company could be deleted from the S&P/TSX Composite Index, in its March quarterly review. The S&P/TSX will announce their official changes after the close on Friday, March 8, with these changes coming into effective after the close on Friday, March 15.

Training in Panama
|Training in [[{{#explode:Training in Panama| |2}} {{#explode:Training in Panama| |3}} {{#explode:Training in Panama| |4}}]]
|Pre-service training will probably be the most intense period of your Peace Corps service, as you will need to gain the knowledge and experience necessary to successfully serve as a Volunteer in just 10 weeks. While the training period will be extremely busy, it should also be a time of excitement, discovery, and self-fulfillment. The effort and challenges of adapting to a new culture will draw on your reserves of patience and humor but will be handsomely rewarded with a sense of belonging among new friends.
|[[Image:Flag_of_{{#explode:Training in Panama| |2}}.svg|50px|none]]}}

For information see Welcomebooks
An experienced staff of language, technical, and cross-cultural trainers and administrative support personnel will do their best to help you obtain the skills and knowledge necessary to have an enjoyable and productive two years of service as a Volunteer working in sustainable community development. They will design and conduct your training based on the specific projects you will be working on.
The 10-week training program will take place in small communities within an hour of Panama City. The average week will be packed into 48 hours, divided among development of language and technical skills; work orientation; and a segment called "common areas training," which incorporates Panamanian culture and history, Volunteer life, personal safety, strategic planning, diversity and gender issues, and other topics related to Volunteer service.
While Peace Corps staff will help prepare you for service, the primary responsibility for becoming prepared resides with you. What you get out of training will depend primarily on your level of interest, enthusiasm, and participation. Come prepared to work hard.
The training staff eagerly awaits your arrival. The training director will contact you a few weeks prior to your departure to welcome you.
Technical Training
Technical training will prepare you to work in Panama by building on the skills you already have and by helping you develop new skills in a manner appropriate to the needs of the country. Peace Corps staff, Panamanian experts, representatives of Panamanian government agencies, and current Volunteers will conduct the training program. Training places great emphasis on learning how to transfer the skills you have to the community in which you will serve as a Volunteer.
Technical training will include sessions on the general economic and political environment in Panama and strategies for working within such a framework. You will review your technical sector's goals and will meet with the Panamanian agencies and organizations that invited the Peace Corps to assist them. You will be supported and evaluated throughout the training to build the confidence and skills you need to undertake your project activities and be a productive member of your community.
Language Training
As a Peace Corps Volunteer, you will find that language skills are the key to personal and professional satisfaction during your service. These skills are critical to your job performance, they help you integrate into your host community, and they can ease your personal adaptation to the new surroundings. Therefore, language training is the heart of the training program, and you must successfully meet minimum language requirements to complete training and become a Volunteer.
Your language training will incorporate a community-based approach. In addition to classroom time, you will be given assignments to work on outside of the classroom and with your host family. The goal is to get you to a point of basic social communication skills so that you can practice and develop language skills further once you are at your site. Prior to being sworn-in as a Volunteer, you will work on strategies to continue language studies during your service.
Cross-Cultural Training
As part of your pre-service training, you will live with a Panamanian host family. This experience will ease your transition to life at your site. Families go through an orientation conducted by Peace Corps staff to explain the purpose of pre-service training and to assist them in helping you adapt to living in Panama. Many Volunteers form strong and lasting friendships with their host families.
Cross-cultural and community development training will help you improve your communication skills and understand your role as a facilitator of development. You will be exposed to topics such as community mobilization, conflict resolution, gender and development, nonformal and adult education strategies, and political structures.
Health Training
During pre-service training, you will be given basic medical training and information. You will be expected to practice preventive healthcare and to take responsibility for your own health by adhering to all medical policies. Trainees are required to attend all medical sessions. Topics include preventive health measures and minor and major medical issues that you might encounter while in Panama. Nutrition, mental health, safety and security, setting up a safe living compound, and how to avoid HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted illnesses (STIs) are also covered.
Safety Training
During the safety training sessions, you will learn how to adopt a lifestyle that reduces your risks at home, at work, and during your travels. You will also learn appropriate, effective strategies for coping with unwanted attention and about your individual responsibility for promoting safety throughout your service.
Additional Trainings During Volunteer Service
In its commitment to institutionalize quality training, the Peace Corps has implemented a training system that provides Volunteers with continual opportunities to examine their commitment to Peace Corps service while increasing their technical and cross-cultural skills. During service, there are several training events.
- In-service training/project design and management: Provides an opportunity for Volunteers to upgrade their project development skills while sharing their experiences and reaffirming their commitment after having served for four to six months.
- Sector workshops: Provides an opportunity each year for Volunteers to upgrade their technical skills. The length of the workshops varies from three to five days.
- Regional training: Provides Volunteers with the opportunity to participate in training workshops with local agency counterparts at quarterly regional meetings.
- Close-of-service conference: Prepares Volunteers for the future after Peace Corps service and reviews their respective projects and personal experiences. The three-day conference occur three to four months before completion of service.
The number, length, and design of these trainings are adapted to country-specific needs and conditions. The key to the
training system is that training events are integrated and interrelated, from the pre-departure orientation through
the end of your service, and are planned, implemented, and evaluated cooperatively by the training staff, Peace Corps staff, and Volunteers Peace Corps

Dear teflo, please overlook the recalcitrant here.
I, for one, would very much like to be a part of your study.
And please note, although themilum has been making a liberal use of my computer tonight, believe me, I am not he. (Thank God!)
I will email your test site my email address now.
I think that yours is a wonderful study.

Aye, that post is from some time back (sorry, for not having checked back earlier). Thx for participating (to you and everyone else in this forum!). So far, approximately 50 people (including several from this forum) have participated in one of our experiments.
That means, we are almost done - I will post one more call for our second experiment here in second for those brave souls among you who simply can't get enough of our lovely Java applets ;-).
Cheers again,

Hi again,
Believe it or not, but you'll have yet another chance to participate in our studies on questions and statements in English (yes, any kind of English - even Australian English, as long as you are a native speaker of it [I'm afraid, just being native and a speaker but not a native speaker won't be enough]).
So, hoping that you don't mind my occasional stopping by too much, I give you another yahoo address to which you can express you interest (just send us a message with the subject line "interested in study"):
some of you have already participated in that experiment. If you want to help us anyway you can participate in whatever experiment you did not already participate in (the email address for the other experiment is firstname.lastname@example.com).
Thank you again for all your help.

Just fyi, tilfo: maybe I'm paranoid, but I haven't signed up to participate because I just don't like the idea of having to send in my e-mail first. If I could just click onto the site, I'd feel much more comfortable. Something akin to why I refuse to register with certain newspapers in order to read them on-line, maybe. I think it's more to do with the feeling that, once I've sent my e-mail address, it will no longer be my choice whether to paricipate or not. Just my 2¢.

More than once on this site, people have offered workarounds, such as http://www.bugmenot.com, why not use them? Or get a throw-away email address specfically for such online use? Asking for an email first is a simple device that helps reduce the rate of bogus or automated participants. There are so many practical steps that can be taken to accoommodate this perfectly reasonable request, without resorting to plaintive hand-wringing.

Vernon, re: your first suggestion--I had completely forgotten the existence of such. Thank you for the reminder. As to your second, I couldn't be bothered. Plus, I have this inherent/intrinsic trait that makes me struggle furiously against the restraints of being forced to do something. I want to at least have the option of doing things my way.
