Those of you who have known me personally for a number of years are aware that support of the arts in schools is an important issue for me. In fact, I spent a semester in music education, until I realized that I might be doing my future students a favor by switching to another teaching major! Even today, I get great personal fulfillment (and sometimes almost a spiritual rejuvenation) from attending a concert or live theatre or strolling through an art gallery.
Today marks the start of the 23rd Annual
Two items that I randomly heard about in the news last week come to mind as I write this message: First, the National Association for Music Education just announced its National Anthem Project to respond to the recent Harris poll finding that two-thirds of American adults don't know the words to "The Star-Spangled Banner." I can't help but think that the lack of knowledge surrounding this keystone of democratic awareness is due in some part to the diminution of school music programs across the country.
Second, a commentator on National Public Radio shared a statistic I had heard before: In a given year, more people attend arts performances than are present for sports contests. The arts really do touch a large number of individuals throughout their lives, making those lives richer and more meaningful. To quote a ten-year-old listed on the back of the poster we recently sent to schools to publicize this week: "Art is a wonderful thing. You probably couldn't live without it."
I say all of this to acknowledge my awareness of the financial stress that school districts have to address in their struggle to continue to provide arts education. Additionally (and especially during these weeks each spring), the ongoing press for test preparation related to the ISAT and PSAE also takes time and attention from the arts in schools.
But please keep up your support. We know now that learning in the arts builds new mental "schema" and cognitive pathways that contribute to each child's creativity and intelligence. We gain nothing by lessening our attention to the arts—indeed, there is a cost in the academic and social development of our students.
Thanks for listening as always—and have a great week.

Student Information System (SIS) – overview online
The passage of the "No Child Left Behind Act of 2001" increased accountability and reporting requirements regarding student academic achievement. In order to better respond to these and other federal and state reporting requirements, ISBE and the IBM Corporation are in the process of developing and implementing a state-level student information system. Through the project students will be assigned a unique identification number. All data to and from the state will use that unique identifier. The use of individual student records will:

Invitation to Comment on Rules
At its February meeting, the State Board of Education released nine sets of proposed rules for public comment. The last eight of these items have now been posted on the agency's web site at www.isbe.net/rules; choose "Proposed Rules and Amendments". Please submit any comments or suggestions you may have to email@example.com.
Deadline for Public
Part 1 (Public Schools Evaluation, Recognition and Supervision)
It has become apparent that, in at least one instance, access to a public early childhood education program has been denied to a child because of the child's immigration status. The Governor's Office and the State Board of Education were asked to intervene on behalf of the child's family and ISBE has been directed to take action to prohibit denials of access such as this.
Free public education is guaranteed regardless of immigration status under the U.S. Supreme Court's 1982 decision in Plyler v. Doe. The present amendment to Part 1 will make this protection explicit in the rules of the State Board of Education.
Part 25
This set of amendments includes miscellaneous changes that are opportune at this time.
Section 25.11(f) is being revised with respect to the definition of "four years of teaching experience" so that an individual who is approaching the end of the fourth year and who is expected to complete that year in his or her current position will be able to apply for the standard certificate.
The slight revision in each of Sections 25.22, 25.32, 25.42 and 25.82 is technical in nature. Section 25.725 was recently repealed and its currently needed content was subsumed in Section 25.720, so these references need to be updated.
The addition of a new subsection (m) to Section 25.100 will create another exception to the general model for adding endorsements in the case of "technology specialist". Since Section 25.100 was added last year, staff has found it very difficult to determine which coursework should be counted toward a major area of concentration relevant to this endorsement. Terminology in this area varies widely and it seems the more prudent course of action to require passage of the content-area test based on the applicable standards so as to ensure that candidates are prepared to perform the functions encompassed within the technology specialist's area. Thus we are proposing that there be only one option available for adding this endorsement (passage of the test in conjunction with completion of 24 semester hours of coursework).
Section 25.115 is being revised to clarify that the "programs" under discussion in these rules are only those that prepare individuals for certification.
Section 25.125(d) discusses the review team that is involved in the on-site accreditation review. The requirement for ISBE team members and an ISBE co-chair on visits involving NCATE accreditation is being deleted. At the same time, the role of the ISBE consultant is being clarified, i.e., this individual does participate in the visit.
The procedure outlined in Section 25.160 has proven to
contain one unnecessary step that will be eliminated in this rulemaking. When

The requirement that each candidate for a school
psychologist's credential have completed a program accredited by the National
Association of School Psychologists (Section 25.235(a)) was widely applauded
during last year's rulemaking on this subject but has since proven to create an
untenable situation. This rule precludes the establishment of any new approved
school psychology programs in
We have determined that the long-standing rule on lapsed certificates (Section 25.450) is unnecessarily stringent in terms of the timeframe within which individuals serving on reinstated certificates must complete the statutorily required five semester hours of college credit. The proposed revision would allow semester hours earned either during the certification year of reinstatement or during the five immediately preceding years to be counted for this purpose.

Part 52 (Dismissal of Tenured Teachers and Civil Service Employees Under Article 34)
The procedures for the dismissal of tenured teachers in
school districts outside of the City of

The proposed amendments to Part 51 are accompanied by the repeal of Part 52 in its entirety.
Part 145 (Temporary Relocation Expenses)
As a result of the general review of these rules, it has been determined that the process for repaying loan funds to the State Board can be simplified. Instead of requiring that districts submit to ISBE the proceeds of tax levies related to these expenses within 30 days after the proceeds are received, we believe it will be sufficient for each affected district to make one payment annually, consisting of all proceeds received to that point.
It is not necessary for the State Board to receive the entire total for a given calendar year at the end of that year. Therefore, to accommodate later receipts it seems a reasonable solution to move the collection date into the early part of the subsequent year and to provide explicitly that amounts not received by the annual payment date can be held by the affected districts until the next annual payment is due. In this way it will be clear that there is no penalty for a district whose levy proceeds arrive too late to be included in the relevant annual payment.
Part 155 (Electronic Transfer of Funds)
These proposed changes represent the results of the general review of this set of rules. In addition to general technical updating, the revisions include elimination of the option for certain participants to designate multiple bank accounts for the receipt of electronically transmitted funds. We have not found that many entities have used this option, perhaps because it entails time-consuming maintenance not only on ISBE's part but also on the part of payees.
Part 475 (Contested Cases and Other Formal Hearings)
Part 480 (Hearings Before the State Teacher
Part 475 is being generally updated and also revised to
incorporate a number of provisions that are currently found Part 480 (Hearings
Before the State Teacher
Part 475 will now require evidentiary hearings that are
under the jurisdiction of the
Others of the amendments change timeframes for notices and responses in order to give the parties more time to prepare their material. Finally, the language of the rules is generally being brought into conformance with the requirements of the IAPA and current rulemaking style. The proposed amendments to Part 475 are accompanied by the proposed repeal of Part 480.
Notice of Completed Rulemaking
Please be advised that a rulemaking item recently adopted by the State Board of Education is now in effect. This set of rules has been posted on the agency's web site at www.isbe.net/rules; choose "Rules Currently in Effect" and scroll to the relevant Part number. (If you print only the affected Sections, remember to include the table of contents for the Part, which changes every time the Part is amended.)
Access to Information of the State Board of Education Under the
Freedom of Information Act (Part 5001)
Several of ISBE's Freedom of Information Act rules were repeated verbatim from the text of the Act or are otherwise adequately addressed by statute. These sections were determined to be unnecessary and have been deleted. The procedures for providing public records and the procedures for providing access to materials incorporated by reference in administrative rules were consolidated into one Subpart. While the amendments have streamlined ISBE's FOIA rules, they do not represent a substantive change in ISBE's FOIA procedures.
Affected Sections: 5001.100, 5001.110, 5001.210, 5001.300, 5001.310, 5001.400, 5001.410, 5001.500, 5001.510, 5001.520 and 5001.600

Applying for exemptions from the school breakfast requirement in the Childhood Relief Act
As a follow-up to the School Breakfast letters sent out last week, Regional Superintendents are authorized to grant exemptions to the school breakfast program requirement in the Childhood Hunger Relief Act if it is determined that the expense reimbursement would not fully cover the costs of implementing and operating a school breakfast program (provided that the circumstances are specific to the district). For more information on this option please contact your Regional Office of Education.

Don't Hetherington, Lenegan and McManus have any input into the direction the game's going in then?
Posted 11 April 2013 - 10:51 AM
Hard to disagree with that assessment, from the outside there doesn't appear to be any sort of strategy in place in regards to the sustainability and growth of the sport at all levels. Both the clubs and the RFL have presided over this demise and need to come up with something to get the sport out of it.
Posted 11 April 2013 - 10:56 AM
He's supposed to be the expert. All he knows is that the game is on a "slide into decline" and suggest asking a few ex-players what to do about it. But isn't he one of those himself? So if he doesn't know the answer, why would Wilkin?
And although he does cite some "facts" to support his contention of decline, I do take issue with his overall proposition.

Actually, its remarkably easy. Cherry picking a few negative points a 1/4 of the way through the season hardly represents an in-depth analysis of the state of the game.

I'm not sure about this...
we have reached the point where a think tank of the best brains in the game is needed to provide the medicine rugby league needs.
...these are the brains that have either got us in this mess or will think of themselves (clubs) only.
His solution too is a bit weak like JohnM says, if all it took was talking we'd have sorted it already.
Another thing is it bugs me how it took a demolition job on Bradford and Salford to come out of the other side, and this season it looks to be Hull KR and Castleford, but then there's every chance those two teams could "do a Salford" and then all is rosy. There's something awfully short term about this thinking.
If you use "should of", "would of" or "could of", you are a moron.

Ideally we would have an independent commission like they have in Australia whose remit is the benefit of the game as a whole. Basically what the RFL are supposed to be doing but who have been brushed aside by the SLE. The difference is the Australian IC can afford to attract the best people for the job.

He has a column to fill and mustn't fill it with anything contentious, doesn't want to upset anyone as he has his position to think about.

So it's the usual vacuous piece, nothing meaty like Neil Hudgells honesty column.
I do think in his position hob nobbing in the boardrooms after all those SKY games and coming into contact with all the big players when theur guards are down and tongues loosened by the G & T's he knows darn well what's coming in terms of developments and attempted solutions but chooses not to share them with us.
Posted 11 April 2013 - 12:05 PM
The RFL as a governing body needs get its house in order, there's too many incompetent people in positions of power blocking any radical overhaul of the game in this country.
Barwick is a good start but he's part time in his role and ultimately has no real power to change things.
The clubs get a say in decision making but they can't always agree amongst themselves. Heatherington was one of the chairmen pushing for the dual registration system, Eamon McManus was strongly opposed to it, and offered a compromise of keeping an U23 competition, but the vote went Heatheringtons way.
The players get very little say in the game. The new group headed by Wilkin & Peacock can give opinions to the RFL on behalf of the players, like they did recently telling them that the vast majority of players wanted to retain the shoulder charge, but the RFL chose to ignore them.
Personally i'd like to see the RFL go down the NRL route with an independent commission. Time for a big clear out at Red Hall !

10/12 Strong, well supported clubs with 8,000 minimum season ticket holders is what the game needs. Now it needs to be decided how to get there.
Mergers is my option but many dont like them (i understand why)
Look at Salford and Oldham merger, them 2 clubs Being a Greater Manchester team would have been great for Rugby League, worse case senario of the merger is a poorly supported SL club, which one is now, and the other my club, less said the better.

Back in 1995 I campaigned against this proposition. 18 years on I can actually see the logic. Oldham is still a great nursery ground for talent and still has plenty of latent support for the game; Salford has lots going for it now but also faces significant challenges.
IF these two elements could somehow be knitted together with the support of the fans, who knows.....
It won't happen though.
Posted 11 April 2013 - 12:25 PM
This past season I've felt the game has been in decline, and it makes me sad. Take for example our falling viewing figures on sky, or the falling attendances at matches, falling salaries of our players etc.
Something needs to change, whilst Phil doesn't have the answers he's at least had the conviction to state the problem and to suggest where we might be able to find the answers.
Maybe its time to frame the future again. But the key isn't framing it, its getting everyone onboard and moving towards it together.
Posted 11 April 2013 - 12:44 PM
I think every single player who comes here from the NRL ought to spend half a day being fully debriefed by the RFL on their NRL and junior development experiences. And again after a year of playing in the SL, and again when they leave.
I strongly suspect an awful lot could be learnt in half a day of talking to Brett Hodgson.
That's me. I'm done.
Posted 11 April 2013 - 12:58 PM
If that is not done already its a sad inditement on how the game is conducted in England.
Although there is clearly value in talking to people like John Wilkin, I'd like to see the Aussies we have here participate more.

If the worst he can come up with is Hull not producing a half back then there can't be much wrong with the game. The article is a bit shallow IMHO and he doesn't offer any answers.
People at the moment don't have money to spend. The coldest winter in years means the heating is still on with big bills ahead and a match ticket is way down the list of priorities. The high street is reporting falling or static takings and shops and pubs are crashing around our ears.
It will take a good world cup to keep the spirits up and if the economy improves (don't hold your breath) then the game will be OK. If not we will have to manage a decline until it can be revived. People can't spend money they haven't got. Not anymore anyway.

The new group headed by Wilkin & Peacock can give opinions to the RFL on behalf of the players, like they did recently telling them that the vast majority of players wanted to retain the shoulder charge, but the RFL chose to ignore them.
Just to be clear, no they never. The RFL took the players position and decided against instituting a ban, then when the RLIF met they voted against it there too.
But the RLIF banned it so they had no choice but to follow. They could have played out the season and waited until next year, but it would have been poor preparation for a world cup to suddenly expect players to play differently in October.
Personally i'd like to see the RFL go down the NRL route with an independent commission. Time for a big clear out at Red Hall !
Because they listened to the players and never banned the shoulder charge?
By the Australian model the RFL already is an independent commission, the only way we would be able to go down the NRL route is the clubs gave up control of Super League to the RFL.
Posted 11 April 2013 - 01:32 PM
What frustrates me about all of this is that we are not alone in finding things difficult, yet we are the only sport to shout it from the rooftops!
The RU premiership will post is third season in a row of declining attendance figures, Wasps have just been saved from going bust, and only managed to pay their players over xmas by another £1m director loan, Bath just posted a £2.8m loss, an increase of £1m from last year, bringing their total debt to over £12m since 2005. Saracens have lost another £6m, bringing their loss over the past 6 years to over £30m. Wasps are in a similar position to Bath and god knows what sale, LW, are like.
Yet I have still to see an article from one of their key presenters/journalists stating how bad a shape their game is in. I think in RL every single journalist has had a pop this year because after years of growth we are seeing a slight decline in attendances.
The game is better than ever with closer scorelines and less uncertainty, the International profile is growing, we have a WC in 6 months time where 15-20% of the overall tickets have gone already, and we have a number of partner sponsors which we haven't had in previous years.
We've just found out that for 6 weeks at the end of the year there will be live International RL on the main terrestrial channel, and we've already sold the rights to 2014, 2016 and 2017 international competitions. Premier sports are a new RL bidder for top level RL, and it looks like their package will be available on Sky and Virgin in time for the WC. Brilliant
Viewing numbers show we are still the second highest watched sport on Sky, and now we have competition from another broadcaster for RL rights. With BT vision also entering the sports arena, come then next round of bidding for TV rights we should get an even better deal.
Salford and Bradford are under new exciting management, Wakefield have steadily improved since AG took over, Leeds have announced record profits, Wigan, Saints, Hull FC, Catalan, Huddersfield, Widnes and Warrington are all going strong and here to stay, leaving 3 out of 14 clubs with question marks over them
Yet once again because 20% of our clubs are struggling we focus on that, rather than the 80% that are doing well.
Yes, things can be better, but as a sport if we want to get better we need to focus on the good things and develop them. No business model will ever work if you change fundamental things to improve a poor minority - you work with the poor minority to get them up to the same level as the better majority.
Posted 11 April 2013 - 01:38 PM
The point where I would deviate from many fans is that I think the games problems are largely due to outside factors and I'm not sure that there is much that we could have or can do to halt the eventual decline of the game in this country. We have probably done well to get to where we are now.
Realistically since 1995 and even before we've been well up against it. We have seen incredible globalisation and unsurprisingly it is the sports that can offer a global dimension that are flourishing, none more so than Football. Big sports have an appeal way beyond their previous boundaries and all of sudden clubs within a 100 mile radius of places like Manchester are having to compete directly with Manchester United. Unsurprisingly, many of these clubs end up looking old-fashioned and parochial.
The bigger problem for me is RU. Their sport has improved immeasurably since professionalism and has grown independently to RL to the point where they now dwarf us in England even. This was an inevitability when you consider the money, the internationals and the privileged position that it holds in many circles. The bigger problem is that is has stifled and still stifles any likely growth we have. We just aren't a different enough sport to flourish where RU is successful, either domestically or internationally. Why take up watching or playing a game you already watch or play but that has some relatively minor rule differences? Especially when the sport you already watch is much bigger and offers a more varied calender of events. France is a more extreme scenario of what I suspect is already slowly happening over here. We will get to the point where RU is so much more appealing that they will have the pick of our youth and players which will continue to cause the game to decline.
It's something that I regularly consider and it becomes more apparent as the years go by. I don't blame anyone for it, especially not the RFL and I get some comfort from the fact that I'm another in a long line to have predicted the end of the game only for it not to have happened yet.

So I was wondering if any of you guys knew from either a different touch-screen display'd computer or what. I have the Surface RT so I know that this isn't going to be a fair comparison but I have Windows 8 Pro at home and the RT. I have the regular pen for the surface RT too. I remote connected to my desktop (which is not a touch screen) and used the pen on the surface RT. opened photoshop and it wasn't working very well. Photoshop (CS 5) had no real idea what was going on.
Now I don't have a pressure sensitive pen obviously and I know with the WACOM tablets it works just fine. However if you put PS on your Surface Pro, should this not be an issue? I was curious to see how it might work but it would sometimes zoom in and other times make the brush stroke.

As a disclaimer, I really don't know the answer to your question. But I am curious, what do you mean when you say "I have the regular pen for the surface RT"? Are you talking about a capacitive pen like Amazon.com: AmazonBasics Stylus for Touchscreen Devices Including Kindle Fire HD 8.9-Inch, Kindle Fire HD 7-Inch, Kindle Fire, Apple iPad 2, the New iPad, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab, BlackBerry PlayBook: Computers & Accessories or something else?

Yes, he's talking about a capacitive pen for the Surface RT. Those are the only ones that will work.
As for the problems with Photoshop, there's a few things going on there. First of all, if you're not in a touch aware app, then using touch only acts as a mouse click. With a pen digitizer like the Surface Pro will have, the pen is detected for what it is, a pressure sensitive pen. That means that for apps like Reader and OneNote (the Metro version) you can just write on them and it's seen as pen input automatically.
Secondly, with regards to zooming in, it sounds like you're trying to put your hand on the screen, and that's causing it to zoom. The reason for that is because your palm is being seen as a second touch input. If the screen detects two touch points moving away from each other, then it zooms in. Unfortunately, that's just how capacitive screens work. With a pen digitizer, they have palm rejection features built in. A true pen digitizer has "hover" capabilities; basically, there's a range within half an inch or so of the screen in which the pen is recognized and you can move the pointer around (it doesn't actually click until you tap the screen). So, what happens with most dual pen/touch digitizers, is that when the pen is moved into that hover range, the touch digitizer instantly turns off. As long as you don't move the pen tip more than half an inch away from the screen, it's impossible to touch, so your hand isn't detected as anything.

Very good answer above! (Thank god someone on these forums knows what they're talking about)
I heard and read from The Verge (Tom Warren wrote a preview on the Pro) that using the pen with the Surface Pro is like writing on paper (as opposed to glass), so that sounds very encouraging!
Does Photoshop have a touchscreen/pen input mode by the way?

|Publication ID: Spring 2006
|Title: Investigational New Drugs: Export Requirements for Unapproved New Drug Products
|Abstract: The final rule will amend the regulations on the exportation of unapproved new drug products, including biological products, for investigational use. In general, the rule will provide four different routes for exporting an unapproved new drug product for investigational use. One route will permit exportation, if the drug is the subject of an investigational new drug application (IND) and is being exported for use in the investigation. A second route would permit exportation, without prior Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval and without an IND, if the product is to be exported for use in a clinical investigation and has received marketing authorization in certain developed countries. The third route will permit exportation, without prior FDA approval and without an IND, if the product is to be exported for use in a clinical investigation in certain specified developed countries. The fourth route will permit exportation without an IND, to any country provided that the exporter sends a written certification to FDA at the time the drug is first exported. Drugs exported under any of the first three routes would, however, be subject to certain statutory requirements, such as not conflicting with the foreign country's laws and not being sold or offered for sale in the United States. Drugs exported under either the second or third routes would be subject to additional statutory requirements, such as being in substantial conformity with the current good manufacturing practices and certain labeling requirements. These provisions will implement changes in FDA's export authority resulting from the FDA Export Reform and Enhancement Act of 1996 and streamline another mechanism for exporting investigational new drugs while providing safeguards.

Program Memorandum – OVAE/DVTE – FY 99-5
|January 7, 1999
|State Directors of Vocational–Technical Education
State Directors of Community, Technical and Junior Colleges
State Tech–Prep Coordinators
|Patricia W. McNeil
|Clarification of Program Memorandum – OVAE/DVTE – FY 99-2
The purpose of this memorandum is to clarify recent guidance regarding a State's options for submitting a State plan, due April 12, 1999, under the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act (Perkins III). As discussed in Program Memorandum OVAE/DVTE – FY 99–2, under Option 3 for a transitional plan, a State may extend with amendments or revisions its current State plan under the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Applied Technology Education Act (Perkins II). We wish to clarify that the current State plan would have to be amended or revised so as to make it consistent with the requirements of Perkins III, particularly the requirements for within–State allocations, distribution of funds, and specific uses of funds.
If a State revises its current Perkins II plan only to the extent necessary to bring it within the new statutory requirements of Perkins III for the program year beginning July 1, 1999, we will not consider these changes to trigger the State plan amendment procedures. See section 4 of Perkins III (Transition Provisions). However, this option does not allow a State to delay implementation of Perkins III until July 1, 2000. In response to questions raised by some States, the difference between Option 3 and Option 1 under transitional plan in Program Memo FY 99–2 is that a State would not have to use the State plan amendment procedures for the one–year transitional plan under Option 3. Similarly, the State would not have to provide new assurances under the Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) or meet the requirements of section 427(b) of the General Education Provisions Act, but rather the State may continue to rely on its current plan to meet those requirements.
Option 3 seeks to provide flexibility to a State that finds the development of a full–blown, five–year State plan too onerous or impossible given the short time for State plan development. Option 3 in no way relieves a State from the eventual completion of a comprehensive Perkins III State plan, nor does this option give a State the opportunity to expend new and carryover funds for Perkins II purposes that are not allowable under Perkins III. As discussed in Program Memorandum– OVAE/DVTE – FY 99 – 4, carryover funds from the grant funds that became available on July 1, 1998, must be obligated under the authority of Perkins III, and must be expended for purposes allowed by the new legislation once those funds become carryover funds. Because the grant funds first available on July 1, 1997, became carryover on October 1, 1998, before Perkins III was effective, a State has the option of spending those funds consistent with the requirements of Perkins II.

I think I prefer this album as a whole over "Phantom Antichrist", and they definitely have been the most consistent of the German thrash elite since the turn of the century.
Written by ManiacBlasphemer on 02.05.2013 at 00:36
Phantom Antichrist is way better than this one, by any means. Sorry to say this, but this one is just a little above compared to what Destruction released recently. Average album, few memorable tracks, pretty disappointing, guess that only Kreator still manages to keep the teutonic thrash metal bands together.
I seriously doubt that Sodom was the most consistent. While M-16 was a great opus, Kreator has Violent Revolution and Enemy of God, even Phantom Antichrist is way better than the majority of the Sodom post-Taping the Vein releases and even Destruction tops with The Antichrist. If there is a thrash metal band that we can still call consistent now, that is Kreator, without a doubt. The rest are unpredictable bands, a solid effort is always followed by a weaker one, and the cycle continues.

Morrisey skeptical of Fed role in Medicaid
MARTINSBURG – With the recent announcement of the expansion to West Virginia's Medicaid program, Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is not confident in the promises made by the federal government.
According to Morrisey, open enrollment for the expanded healthcare system begins Oct. 1, and he claims the federal government is "woefully behind" its implementation schedule and responsibilities to citizens.
"They're behind in terms of the implementation of the insurance exchanges, and they're behind in terms of the development in systems that allow low-income individuals to access subsidies," Morrisey said.
Morrisey also asserted that the federal government has not maintained the necessary education of customers on their rights and responsibilities.
"If you don't have people that even know about the existence of the law or their ability to enroll – you're not going to have a robust marketplace. If you don't have adequate participation in a marketplace, healthcare premiums are going to soar. That could be a disaster for the state of West Virginia, and that's why I'm concerned," Morrisey said.
To combat the potential negative impact to state citizens, Morrisey said he will be devoting significant time to the consumer protection aspects of healthcare law to ensure that residents understand any issues they may face from the federal government.
According to information from a CCRC Actuaries report, the expansion to the Medicaid program will provide coverage to more than 91,000 West Virginians.
The cost to expand the program is approximately $372 million from fiscal year 2014 to 2023. Throughout that 10-year period, the state is expected to receive about $5.2 billion in federal funding or around $372 million annually.
Morrisey doubts the federal government's ability to continuously fund West Virginia's expansion, saying that the state needs to install the infrastructure to support the expansion itself if the federal government withdraws monetary backing.
"I'm really worried that the federal government's promises cannot be met. I don't think it's realistic to believe that (the monetary support) will stay in place," Morrisey said. "We have to make sure that we're preparing for a time when the federal government spigot slows down and West Virginia's able to be stronger on its feet economically."
While stating that he disagreed with the decision to expand Medicaid throughout the state, Morrisey believes the decision was a difficult one, made after careful consideration and in good faith.
With the decision made, Morrisey said his job and the job for all state elected officials is to "mitigate some of the harm" for the implementation and work together on the state level to ensure the state can one day sustain the program.

Is it any easier to induce lactation if you've breastfed a biological child previously (versus inducing lactation without any experience breastfeeding)? Like, your body remembers how to make milk?
I'm currently breastfeeding my second child who's 6 months old. I don't want any more biological children but we would like to adopt in about 3 years. I really would like to breastfeed if we adopt an infant. I could let my daughter wean in a year or two, then try to induce lactation whenever we adopt. Or, I could try to pump to keep up my supply as DD nurses less, and pump straight through until we adopt. That sounds like a lot of pumping, but I could donate the milk, and if it would make it easier to nurse my next child then I think it would be worth considering.
So if you've read this far, thanks! I'd love any opinions on the best way I can try to nurse our next child.

Just a short while ago, Drysc posted the unfortunate news on the WoW Hunters forum: the ghost wolf (aka the Grimtotem Spirit Guide) can no longer be tamed. Drysc says:
Through a hotfix we've recently removed the ability to tame a Grimtotem Spirit Guide. Players who have already gone through the trouble of taming the creature will be able to keep them unchanged. This hotfix only removes the possibility to tame this creature from here on.
The removal of the spirit guide has been debated within design discussions for a while now as to what impact the pet and its precedent has on the game.
The unintended nature of the taming, the undead status of the guide, appearance of the wolf in relation to the feel of the hunter class, and the complex processes of taming were all issues touched upon and discussed.
Ultimately the discussions brought us to the conclusion that this should not be a permanent addition to the pet selection available to hunters; however, those that have already tamed them should be allowed to keep them due to their efforts in obtaining one.
Previously, Blizzard had said that they would be leaving the ghost wolf as a tameable creature. Apparently, they changed their mind.
My thanks to Alanonymous for bringing this to my attention.

Vt House advances anti-narcotics billBy Kirk Carapezza
Vermont Public Radio | March 22,2013MONTPELIER After weeks of studying Vermonts prescription drug problem, House lawmakers Thursday advanced a sweeping bill that would address opiate addiction and abuse.
Rep. Bill Lippert, a Democrat from Hinesburg who is the lead sponsor of the bill, said that even before this legislative session began, he repeatedly heard from law enforcement officials who urged the Legislature to strengthen the states response to a prescription drug epidemic.
We continue to have issues with overdoses, he said. We continue to have a need to address recovery because, as law enforcement said in our committee and elsewhere, we cannot arrest our way out of this problem.
As chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Lippert made sure the issue got attention this year.
Thursday on the House floor, he outlined how the new legislation would address that problem. It would provide wider access to the states prescription drug monitoring system and hold property owners accountable if they knowingly rent to drug dealers. It would also attempt to undercut the financing of the drug trade and increase treatment options.
Public health and law enforcement officials are championing the measure.
They say it would save lives.
Its clear that we have a challenging problem with opiate addiction and substance abuse in Vermont, said Health Commissioner Harry Chen, whose office estimates that Vermont sees about 52 deaths every year by unintentional overdoses.
Chen said the states prescription drug monitoring system is only effective if physicians use it.
This bill is really going to enhance its effectiveness and efficiency and essentially require physicians to use it at times when we all agree they should be looking to take better care of their patients, he said.
Last year, a similar bill got bottled up in committee largely because lawmakers couldnt agree whether to give police access to the states drug records.
This version would limit police access, but some lawmakers, including Arlington Rep. Cynthia Browning, want to expand it.
I understand all the issues of privacy of patients, Browning said. I just think its important to note that improved access for law enforcement is not in this bill. That is one tool that is not being provided in this bill.
Since opiate addiction in Vermont has dramatically spiked in recent years, lawmakers agree that the state needs to take a more comprehensive approach, and they say this bill is a good start.
The House also advanced a companion bill that would limit criminal liability for a person who calls emergency officials when someone is potentially having an opiate overdose.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep.

Welcome to Journalism
Program Description
The profession of journalism is undergoing a seismic shift. Newspapers, formally a print-only medium, are transitioning to the Web. Broadcast journalism is also moving online, allowing for more immediate reporting, faster news cycles and public interaction. The advent of a pervasive Internet and low-cost mobile devices has exponentially increased the demand for up-to-date news and led to a new class of journalist able to tell stories through hypertext, images, video and sound.
Journalism students at Santa Barbara City College learn by doing. Through the award-winning 24/7 site, TheChannels.org, students produce articles in traditional news formats, feature and opinion genres. Additionally, they combine photojournalism and the documentary format to create works of visual journalism suitable for viewing on mobile devices.
The Journalism Department is an active part of the School of Media Arts, with coordinated classes supporting the core program in photography, video production, multimedia and graphic design. Theory courses such as mass media and documentary film round out a curriculum that prepares students to become professional journalists committed to truth-telling, ethical practice and creative craftsmanship.
The department offers two associate degrees for transfer-bound majors as well as both a certificate and a skills competency award in public relations and photojournalism. SBCC faculty works closely with our counterparts at state universities to ensure the relevance, currency and transferability of all our classes and programs.
Program Student Learning Outcomes
- Use news judgment to select, produce and publish journalistic content.
- Practice standard reporting and newsgathering techniques.
- Identify the best medium by which to convey journalistic content.
- Develop journalistic content in multiple media forms.
- Identify and practice the role and principles of a free press in a participatory democracy: commitment to accuracy, sound ethics, fairness and context.

After being on sale for a year, billionaire David Murdock landed a deal to sell the island of Lanai.
"We were just waiting on the fence for more than a year to see which way the island would go," said long-time Lanai newspaper writer Alberta De Jetley.
After more than 25 years of ownership Murdock inked a deal with Oracle co-founder and CEO Larry Ellison.
And the two are apparently moving fast. According to papers filed with the Public Utilities Commission, Murdock's company Castle & Cooke hope to close the deal by June 27.
"He just had it in his mind already what he was going to do to Lanai already it was unbelievable," said De Jetley, emotional about her first meeting with Murdock more than a quarter of a century ago.
De Jetley now writes for Lanai Today. She said Murdock arrived as the pineapple plantations were going downhill, along with the rest of the limping economy, and redeveloped, bringing resorts, golf courses and jobs.
It was a move, that for many residents to this day, has earned their undying support.
"It was because of Murdocks deep pockets that were were able to ride the ups and downs," she said.
But De Jetley believes it's been an tough endeavor for Murdock. She told KITV even after cost-cutting, Murdock, who called her right before Wednesday's sale announcement, was losing 10 million a year on the island.
"Who in their right mind done that? He really loves this island. He really loves Lanai," she said.
From one pair of deep pockets to another. Billionaire Larry Ellison is hoping to close the deal by next week, which was news that surprised lawmakers.
Sen. Shan Tsutsui sent a letter to the governor on Wednesday, asking him to consider having the state bid for the island, but even he admits, it appears a deal is imminent.
"I didn't realize they were this far along in negotiations. At this point, I just hope Mr. Ellison has best interest of the people of Lanai in mind. But what ever happens, I hope he considers giving greater control to the people over the island," said Tsutsui.
"It would be so nice to see him happy again," said De Jetley, who said it's been an emotional ride for her friend.
Murdock lost two sons: One from a pool accident; Another from a car crash. He also lost his third wife to cancer as he was preparing to buy the island.
But for residents, it's a ride that's now taken a whole new path.
"I think it's a great shot in the arm for our island," said De Jetley.

The School Library Profiles developed by the Library Research Service are meant to be used as a comparative tool for school libraries in Colorado. The results represent data received from school libraries that completed the 2004 Colorado School Library Survey. Profiles for each participating school compare individual school data with averages for schools with similar grade level and enrollment ranges. Please note that since all data were derived from responses to the survey, schools that did not respond to the survey are not represented in the Profiles.
Use the school locator (below) to find the school for which you would like to see the 2004-2005 School Library Profile. Remember, schools that did not respond to the 2004 Colorado School Library Survey will not be represented in the Profiles.
Please Note: Starting with the 2008-09 profiles, we are using medians instead of averages for the comparison groups. Medians represent the school in the middle of each statistic - i.e., there are equal numbers of schools above and below the median. For this reason, we felt this was more representative of the "typical" school than average, which can be more strongly influenced by outliers.

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

This works great in basically everything! Together with the xanthan gum, the batter smells and tastes like (excuse the language) shit before you put it in the oven. But as soon as it is all done and ready, the outcome has always been awesome! Apple cake and the banana bread back on the packaging has been my favourite cakes to use this flour in by far :)

Awesome reports! And what a Pig in those last few pic, gorgeous Bass!!! I like the boat, like everyone else has said, perfect skinny water platform, and economical to run I'm sure. Nice rig!
Byron, we have some Milfoil too, but we have a lot of Hydrilla here and that stuff is worse than wire grass! Once you've got it, or Lilly pads, then it's everywhere.
<(((>< In tribute to Ben, Duck Hunter extraordinaire, and man's best friend.
what i have been up too.....summer continues
Brian you are correct! I stopped by the shop after my trip to the little river earlier this summer. I remember you asked about a place to stay to fish the Big Chick as they are calling it these days. Dayton TN has rebranded herself as the New Bass Fishing Capitol of the South.
I bet if u called around u, or anyone else, could find a cabin to rent. That area is great fishing. We have done well in tournaments up there throwing frogs and sammys.
As summer as dragged on the Snookie has continued to chase bass around Chickamauga and Nickajack. There have been some changes as of late. My early summer grass bite has tapered off as the water temperatures have climbed. The bass have gone deep in search of cooler water and I have struggled to catch the big uns as of late. That being said I am still catching smaller buck bass in the grass and schooling on points. I cant wait for later in the year when the grass starts to die and the canopy forms. This is when the BIG GIRLS come to play on top!
Schooling bass are something that I hope everyone can witness sometime in theor lives. Rapid fire fishing is lotsOfun! It never fails that my casting ability (mediocore at best) drops significantly when my blood boils as the fish start jumping. Speed is of the essence as the only thing that matters is getting any bait into the target zone! Wiggle minnows, poppers, clousers, and even frogs it dont matter the fish will eat.
The Honey Hole! and
Obligatory Bass Pics...enjoy
There are times when it doesnt seem to stop raining. It seems all I do is dodge storms.
fish till the storm is on top of you then run home
The grass as continued to grow. The spots I was fishing a month ago are now covered with a combination of American Pond Weed (I think) and hydrilla on top with a healthy layer of milfoil coming up below. I tend to troll or paddle around listening for ever telling sounds of the snap crackly pop of the active areas and proceed to beat them up with the frog. Last year, when I was in Knoxville, the upper stretches of Loudon around campus had grass all around. Go check out the bank around Sequoyah hills, you will see
Summer continues..............keep getting all that you can out of her!
there is a reason they dont call it "catching"
Musky on Melton
MUSKY!!!...a TR
I was lucky enough to have a good friend in engineering school who was a di- hard fly-guy that got me turned onto this sport a few years back. After school he went up to Virginia for a job (apparently you got to have one of those) there he began to chase the fish of 10,000 cast on the Shenandoah. Now this kid has probably put in 30,000 cast and doesnt have anything to show for it except a strong shoulder and a handful of follows. Undeterred he called me up and said he would be back in Knoxvegas for a day and want to go check out Da Hill. Having not seen him in a few months I obliged and we decided on a day I hitched up the Snook and drove north.
We got to the water early around 7 and the fog was thick. Be began throwing the modified chicken carcasses (musky flys) at lay downs realizing it was still early and the water was cold. We both took turns casting or should I say hucking flys with most retrieves ending in a lengthy figure-8. This is something that I have decided that fly rods were not intended to do. Melton Hill is surprisingly clear, I have not been on this lake in years. My dad used to take me down to Clark Center when I was yound to catch blue gills and such. It was good to be back.
Flied tied and ready mounted on BIG STICKS
The Snookie was loaded and ready to hunt
Casting at day break the fog was thick
Figure 8
One of the dead chickens in action
An hour or so into the trip we found some schooling smallies. I have never seen smallies school, and it was fun to watch. It was a 15 minute long affair that took up nearly half a cove. This was much longer and bigger than a largemouth feeding frenzy. Didnt get any pics of the bass, but they were good sized and each puked up a fair share of leavins in the boat.
Breakfast was served on the boat as we ran to warmer water in the back of large inlets and creek moths looking for the monsters.
Navigation was key
Later in the day I, my turn came and I mounted the bow of the Snookie. A few cast in I started my retrieve as normal as my ***-hole 1st mate continued to critique my side armed, ill-timed, and inaccurate casting (hucking) of the 8 fly. A few strips in from the bank a NUCLEAR SUBMARINE became faintly visible behind the fly. My heart beat jumped, hair stood up, and breathing stoped. There she was .over 40 inches of pure predator. As I stripped she would follow each strip my muscles tightened. What felt like an eternity was probably 30-45 seconds? I have never seen a fish move so slow or deliberately. Bass and other game fish make a decision to eat or attack and do it instantly .not musky. As I brought the fly to the boat, musky in tow, I begain to make my figure 8. The fish was so long that I was careful not to hit her with the rod tip. 1 ½ times around the fly went and she followed and like that the fish disappeared below the boat into the deep. I continued to repeat my the cast and figure 8 with no luck. It was hard to cast since my leg continued to shake for a few minutes afterwards. A few minutes later we decided to contine down the bank as we assumed we were in the right place. Just a few minutes later I saw another musky, smaller than the first lurking below a over hanging tree !!!!! my buddy could not believe my luck. He though for sure I would land a musky of my first outing while he still has not gotten his first. Cast after cast began to seduce her out of hiding. These fish are fearless as the fly banged and splashed around her. Finally she appeared to take note and the process began again .muscles tightened breathing slowed and hair stood on end. Strip ..follow, pause strip .follow,pause .strip follow,pause s trip follow,pause strip follow,pause .to the boat she came paying no attention to the Snookie and her crew. As I began the figure 8 she dove .never to be seen again. After collecting my thoughts and letting all of the surrounding area know my displeasure we switched and proceeded to fish. I wish I would have gotten a picture of these fish chasing the fly but we were both so entranced it was the last thing on our minds.
As the day wore on now more fish were seen but the feeling those fish gave me well bring me back soon. The muskellunge is a worthy advisary and will test a seasoned angler, but the sight of a small submarine following the fly is something I have not experienced and will not experience again until It happens again
Until Next time
there is a reason they dont call it "catching"
Love Love these posts!!

Headlines (News Releases)
Laurier Brantford
Author Elizabeth Hay named Lauriers 2014 Visiting Writer
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Jan 23/14| For Immediate Release
John Fraser, Director
Lori Chalmers Morrison, Acting Director
WATERLOO Award-winning Canadian author Elizabeth Hay will be visiting Wilfrid Laurier Universitys Waterloo and Brantford campuses March 17-21 as the universitys Visiting Writer for 2014.
Hay will discuss her latest novel, Alone in the Classroom, during a public lecture at Lauriers Brantford campus, and a host of other topics during public lectures at Lauriers Waterloo campus. In addition to lectures, Hay will visit classes, host a creative-writing workshop and join a panel discussion with the 2014 Edna Staebler Laurier Writer-in-Residence, Colleen Murphy.
A complete schedule of Hays public appearances will be available at wlu.ca/VisitingWriter closer to her visit.
It is a great honour to host one of Canadas literary masters as our 2014 Visiting Writer, said Deborah MacLatchy, vice-president: academic and provost. Her works speak to many of the research topics we seek to understand at Laurier such as the northern Canadian environment and the student-teacher relationship, and we are excited for our community to explore these and other themes with the author herself.
As part of the Visiting Writer program, the Laurier community is invited to participate in the Laurier Reads reading group, which will read Hays Late Nights on Air. Late Nights on Air, a book set in and around a small radio station in Yellowknife in the Canadian north of the 1970s, won the 2007 Scotiabank Giller Prize, among other awards. The novel is a mix of intrigue, love story, wilderness adventure, history and environmental politics.
The Laurier Reads Elizabeth Hay group will meet three times during the winter term to discuss various aspects of Late Night on Air and will have a members-only meeting with Hay. For further information about Laurier Reads, visit wlu.ca/VisitingWriter. To register for Laurier Reads, contact Associate Professor Tanis MacDonald at firstname.lastname@example.com for the Waterloo campus, or Assistant Professor Tarah Brookfield at email@example.com for the Brantford campus.
Hay won Lauriers 1993 Edna Staebler Award for Creative Non-Fiction, for The Only Snow in Havana. She has been on shortlists for the Scotiabank Giller Prize and the Governor Generals Award, and in 2002 the Writers Trust of Canada presented her with the Marian Engel Award for her body of work, which includes novels, short stories and creative non-fiction.
Lauriers Visiting Writer program is sponsored by Lauriers Office of the Vice-President: Academic and Provost. Past writers have included Alissa York, Joseph Boyden and Lawrence Hill.

No not Leto…doesn't drinkReplyCancel
Jared Douchebag Leto. he's been known to get really rough with groupies he picks up too. not coolReplyCancel
As in never…..ReplyCancel
@tricia, is that according to Leto? because DiCaprio also claimed to never have done drugs and I don't believe that either.ReplyCancel
The rock climbing gym makes you go through an orientation every time, even if you're a regular. And no way would they let a drunk operate the equipment. Tsk, I hope this club gets a really bad Yelp review.ReplyCancel
@ ducky….yes, but not in a preachy way…I even remember when he first started doing interviews he discussed no drugs, no drink…he eats only natural…and you've never seen him with anything in his hand or slurred…he's straight edge
Weird but straightedge
Leto brother Shannon is a junkie. Maybe Jared is straight and narrow because his older brother is such a mess he doesn't want to emulate him.ReplyCancel
Leto, no drugs????? Lolololoolol. Sorry. He must have been high when he made such claims.
(Not trying to be mean to anyone here. I can't believe he'd try to pass this off. My opinion of him came down some. I'd thought he'd be smart enough not to claim that.)ReplyCancel
Nice use of semantics to swerve the story, Fugazi Enty. I would think "sex club" would hire "whores" not "models" but there would be way less sympathy for damaging a whore.ReplyCancel
It's been written on several sites that Capricorn makes like BDSM, specifically with "shady" women, not the ones they make their spouse. Hm. Leto, Blooper, Law, Renner — all sea goats, all like the dark side from what they've shown.ReplyCancel
Count Jerkula – depends where in Europe this "club" was. I remember reading about "models" (high priced hooker escorts) @ Some Romanian exclusive where folks like Clooney picked their "contracts".ReplyCancel
Meme stupid questions: who is Capricorn and do I even want to know what shit involves sea goats?ReplyCancel
Who was in Germany or in Belguim this week? Their sex clubs are knownReplyCancel
Jared Leto and his rock band does the tour of european music festReplyCancel
Wiglet,,,,capricorn is a star sign,,,
French girl,,,what? I live in Belgium,,,and although I don't frequent sex clubs, I've never heard of Belgium being known for it's kinky sex clubs,? Frites and moules,yes, mannequin de pis, sure, but bdsm sex clubs? Really
Anyway, doesn't nearly every European capital have that sort of thing? I'm British and I,m pretty sure you could find it in London, Paris or Rome if you wanted to.
I could totally see Leto being too much of a narcissist to drink or do drugs.ReplyCancel
@Froggy England
I have a colleague and his wife who go to ACANTHUS( in Harelbeke) in Belgium every week http://acanthus.be/eng/index.htm
There are until 500 persons in the place
I even have their visit card ( if i'm interested)
As said, I'm sure they exist, just didn't think it was something belgium was particularly known for over other eu countries,,,,live and learn I guess.ReplyCancel
Leto doesn't just "not drink," he is sober. As in, he actively maintains his sobriety. My friend went home with him once, he has a large penis but she did not end up hooking up with him because she was turned off by how forceful he was.
Clearly not so forceful as to forcefully change her mind, so he's got that going for him.ReplyCancel
@Froggy England
Apparently the sex club places are huge at the french-belgian frontiers and the brothels are authorized in Belgium ( in Spain and Germany also)
In France,the brothels are banned, the prostitution unauthorized and the sex clubs are tiny
Filth bags! 😉ReplyCancel
Most (if not all) BSDM clubs are verrrrrry concerned about safety, so this blind makes it sound like the guy was drunk, didn't know what he was doing, or didn't hear the safe word, and management or someone stepped in and he stopped. This happens ALL the time, except in private and that is usually where the "accidents" happen. You have to be very careful in BDSM situations, and that is why they don't like drunks or druggies.ReplyCancel
Not BCoop he doesn't drink
Ok so Leto is sober too – he's out
We know DiCaprio likes to drink and he loves models
I think "Capricorn" is referring to Leo – that's how I translated itReplyCancel
River Phoenix didn't do drugs, didn't drink, and ate healthy, too.ReplyCancel
Czech Republic also has prolific sex tourismReplyCancel
This sounds like Leto except for the drunk part. He's IS in Europe right now though….ReplyCancel
[Insomnia-induced Logorrhea again–click to close comment, sorry!]
Leto's the one who used his Oscar (literal) in a Not Right way, isn't he? Was so sure it'd be him, but it seemed almost too easy…
& the sober/narcissist argument sways toward the Sober side of the Honestly Sober SOB vs Lyin', Drinkin' Druggie SOB debate.
If he'd only stuck to acting–'cause musicians… even Jagger snorted enough coke (narcissist's DoC, w/booze) to look & sound like a dried-out husk by 40). Did Leto have any hungry years? He was with Uma so long ago it counts as "back in the day," right?
No hungry years?
Made It initially as actor, then musician
Reeks of narcissist
Junky sister could count either way–unless she died, or got permanently junky-ugly–something to scare the sh*t out of him.
If the sister died or got ugly, tot buy him as a gross borderline NPD Sober SOB.Even if she's ok now, he looks too young for his age.
It's really not Leto.
Nice to see a proper BI. Kinda funny; doesn't out someone's mental illness or gender pref; or merely remind everybody about adultery or divorce stats
[nb to self: check whether synthroid is behind the insomnia ;( ]
Blind doesn't mention gender. Could be a woman- maybe JLaw.ReplyCancel
Bcoop has been on a lot of unsupervised benders lately. He is publicly sober like he is publicly straight. .Not at allReplyCancel
Yeah but he didn't win.ReplyCancel
Fassbender didn't win.ReplyCancel
Omg are you serious? he looked like a nice guy. I guess looks can be deceiving.ReplyCancel
The oscar nominees were dicaprio , hill, ejiofor, mcconaughey ,Squibb, Adams, Lawrence, Cooper, nyong'o , blanchett , fassbender , Hawkins , dern, bullock, bale, alibi( the guy from captain Phillips) the winners were Blanchett, nyong'o , Leto and McConaughey.
