How much luggage will I be allowed to bring to Rwanda?
Most airlines have baggage size and weight limits and assess charges for transport of baggage that exceeds this allowance. The Peace Corps has its own size and weight limits and will not pay the cost of transport for baggage that exceeds these limits. The authorized baggage allowance is two checked pieces of luggage with combined dimensions of both pieces not to exceed 107 inches (length + width + height) and a carry-on bag with dimensions of no more than 45 inches.
Checked baggage should not exceed 80 pounds total with a maximum weight allowance of 50 pounds for any one bag. Peace Corps Volunteers are not allowed to take pets, weapons, explosives, radio transmitters (shortwave radios are permitted), automobiles, or motorcycles to their overseas assignments. Do not pack flammable materials or liquids such as lighter fluid, cleaning solvents, hair spray, or aerosol containers. This is an important safety precaution.
What is the electric current in Rwanda?
The local current is 220 volts/50Hz. Small electrical appliances can generally be used with transformers. Some Volunteers' houses have electricity. We suggest that you bring a converter. Electric clocks will not keep time because of different cycles. There are power surges and fluctuations, as well as outages, which take a toll on equipment.
In general, do not bring electrical appliances. If you are one of the few Peace Corps Volunteers to have electricity, appliances for 220 voltage are available in-country, but are very expensive. If not, a solar battery recharger may be useful.
How much money should I bring?
Volunteers are expected to live at the same level as the people in their community. They are given a settling-in allowance and a monthly living allowance, which should cover their expenses. Often, Volunteers wish to bring additional money for vacation travel. Credit cards are preferable to cash. Visa and Mastercard are currently the most widely accepted credit cards, though some also accept American Express. Traveler's checks are rarely accepted and, when they are, the exchange rate is very poor. It is possible to withdraw money from a Visa credit card at the Banque de Kigali in Kigali for a fee. Debit cards are not accepted in Rwanda, but can be useful when traveling to other countries. Western Union does exist but it can be costly to have money wire-transferred. If you choose to bring extra money, bring the amount that suits your own travel plans and needs.
When can I take vacation and have people visit me?
Each Volunteer accrues two vacation days per month of service (excluding training). Leave may not be taken during training, the first three months of service, or the last three months of service, except in conjunction with an authorized emergency leave. Family and friends are welcome to visit you after preservice training and the first three months of service as long as their stay does not interfere with your work. Extended stays at your site are not encouraged and may require permission from your country director. The Peace Corps is not able to provide visitors with visa, medical, or travel assistance.
Will my belongings be covered by insurance?
The Peace Corps does not provide insurance coverage for personal effects; Volunteers are ultimately responsible for the safekeeping of their personal belongings. However, you can purchase personal property insurance before you leave by contacting your own insurance company. Volunteers are cautioned not to ship or take valuable items overseas. Jewelry, watches, radios, cameras, and expensive appliances are subject to loss, theft, and breakage, and in many places, satisfactory maintenance and repair services are not available.
Do I need an international driver's license?
Volunteers in Rwanda do not need an international driver's license since they are prohibited from driving for safety and security reasons. They are also discouraged from driving while on authorized leave. Most urban travel is by bus or taxi. Rural travel ranges from buses and minibuses to trucks, bicycle taxis, and a lot of walking. For transportation needs with your overseas visitors, rental companies can provide drivers for a fee.
What should I bring as gifts for Rwandan friends and my host family?
While this is not a requirement, a token of friendship is sufficient. Some gift suggestions include knickknacks for the house; pictures, books, or calendars of American scenes; souvenirs from your area; hard candies that will not melt or spoil; or photos to give away.
Where will my site assignment be when I finish training and how isolated will I be?
Peace Corps trainees are not assigned to individual sites until after they have completed their pre-service training. This gives the Peace Corps staff the opportunity to assess each trainee's technical and language skills prior to assigning sites, in addition to finalizing site selections with their ministry counterparts. If feasible, you may have the opportunity to provide input on your site preferences, including geographical location, distance from other Volunteers, or living conditions.
However, keep in mind that many factors influence the site selection process and that the Peace Corps cannot guarantee placement where you might ideally like to be. Most Volunteers will live in small towns or in rural villages, but will usually be within one hour from the nearest Volunteer.
How can my family contact me in an emergency?
The Peace Corps' Office of Special Services provides assistance in handling emergencies affecting trainees and Volunteers or their families. Before leaving the United States, you should instruct your family to notify the Office of Special Services immediately if an emergency arises, such as a serious illness or death of a family member. During normal business hours, the number for the Office of Special Services is 800.424.8580; select option 2, then extension 1470. After normal business hours and on weekends and holidays, the Special Services duty officer can be reached at the above number. For non-emergency questions, your family can get information from your country desk staff at the Peace Corps by calling 800.424.8580, select option 2, then extension 2319.
Can I call home from Rwanda?
Yes. Most large cities and provincial capitals have a domestic telephone system; regional centers and some large cities provide overseas telephone services. All cellphones can make international phone calls, though it can cost up to $1 per minute to call the United States. Many Volunteers find it easier to call their families and ask their families to call them back. Cellphones in Rwanda can receive international calls. Personal overseas calls cannot be made from the Peace Corps office. Volunteers must use locally available public phones or cellular phones for all personal calls.
Should I bring a cellular phone with me?
Only if it accepts a SIM card. SIM cards are cheap and easy to find in Kigali. It is also easy and relatively cheap to buy a cellphone in Rwanda.
Will there be email and Internet access? Should I bring my computer?
There are now cybercafés in major towns that provide Internet access, and in most towns, Internet is also available at the post office. However, Volunteers can access email in the Kigali office resource center on a time-available basis. Some Volunteers may choose to bring a laptop computer; however, access to reliable electricity cannot be guaranteed and, as with any valuable, there is the threat of theft, loss or damage.

(KVOA) Federal agents shut down a drug tunnel along the U.S.-Mexico border Wednesday.
The operation was carried out by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, and led to the recovery of 1,200 pounds of marijuana.
Officers with the Nogales Tunnel Task Force were conducting surveillance in the area around noon and observed a van in a parking lot, approximately 200 yards east of the Morley Pedestrian Gate.
After noticing suspicious activity, the investigators approached the van, which was loaded with marijuana bundles.
Two men near the van attempted to flee on foot, but were apprehended by Task Force officers not far from the tunnel and taken into custody.

A JP Morgan career that started in the headmaster's study
When Viswas Raghavan interviewed for a role at JP Morgan before joining the firm in 2000, he was quizzed in the headmaster's office at an old City of London School building used as an office by the bank.
Now it is the Indian-born financier who is schooling the firm's next generation.
That interview, hosted by Klaus Diederichs, the then head of investment banking in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, was the start of a career at JP Morgan that has seen Raghavan ascend the ranks in double-quick time.
Now, as head of banking for Europe in Emea, he has responsibility for regional client coverage across investment banking, the corporate bank and treasury services.
Daniel Pinto, co-head of corporate and investment banking at JP Morgan, told Financial News: "Vis has incredible energy and encourages everyone to never be complacent."
Raghavan first moved to the UK to study, taking a postgraduate degree in electronic engineering and computer science at Aston University. He then worked as a systems engineer at General Signal Corporation, now a part of Fortune 500 company SPX, before switching to a career in finance with Ernst & Young.
Another switch soon followed, with Raghavan moving into trading convertible bonds at Lehman Brothers. After discovering a skill for explaining the complexities of equity-linked securities, he crossed the Chinese wall into banking.
He joined JP Morgan in 2000 as head of equity-linked capital markets for Europe and Asia from Lehman Brothers, and helped the bank ascend the league table quickly.
Having failed to work on a single equity-linked deal in Europe in 2000, the bank moved up to fifth in the Emea equity-linked league tables in 2001, and then into the top three. The feat led to Raghavan being dubbed the "convertible bonds king" by the press.
Promotions have come thick and fast since, with appointments as co-head and then sole head of European equity capital markets, head of international capital markets and global head of equity capital markets on the way to his latest role.
As head of banking for Emea, he now stands at the forefront of the bank's next generation, a point highlighted by the decision by Diederichs, the man who hired him, to retire later this year.
Across Europe, the bank has a cadre of senior bankers relatively new to their positions, including Ina De and Conor Hillery, who run UK investment banking; Kyril Courboin, who heads investment banking in France; and Jake Donavan, senior country officer of the Benelux and the Nordic regions.
In the latest move, new senior country officers in three markets were announced last month, with Martin Wiesmann and Nick Bossart promoted in Germany and Switzerland, and Anton Ulmer hired from Morgan Stanley in Austria.
The head of that group of bankers, Raghavan is regarded by colleagues as hard-working in the extreme and demanding as a boss.
He is always curious about the competition, including some of those that others might discount. He also repeatedly stresses the need for members of his team to guard against becoming "lazy".
He said: "We're privileged to work for an organisation like JP Morgan but we can never underestimate the competition."
JP Morgan enjoyed a banner year in Emea in 2013, his first in the role, shrugging off the effects of reputational damage resulting from the London Whale fiasco involving the chief investment office, the previous year.
The US bank ranked inside the top three for revenues in debt (second), equity (third), mergers and acquisitions (second) and syndicated loans (third).
Across investment banking, the bank had a market share of 6.8%, generating $1.3 billion in investment banking revenues.
That is second to Deutsche Bank in the region, which had a 7.6% revenue share, and up from 6.2% in 2012.
Recap mandates
The bank's market share in Emea has only once been higher in the past decade, in 2009 when the bank worked on a swathe of recapitalisation rights issues.
With Raghavan at the helm in the region, the bank is also putting a greater proportion of its money to work in Europe, with loans to Emea clients making up more than 30% of the total loan book in the corporate and investment bank in 2013, up from 23.3% in 2011.
This year has started in a similar vein. For the year to February 28 – admittedly a limited time period – JP Morgan has generated $153 million in investment banking revenues in Emea, according to Dealogic, making it joint third.
While the US might be a global growth engine once more, and the spiritual home of his employer, Raghavan doesn't look ready to leave London any time soon. His affection for his adopted home is clear, and his role in Europe puts him inside a core group of senior European-based executives with Pinto, Emilio Saracho, deputy chief executive for Emea, and trading heads Guy America, who looks after global credit, and Tim Throsby, who looks after equities.
Speaking to Financial News at the time of his appointment, Raghavan said his new role was the sort of job he'd always wanted to do, and a little over a year on, his enthusiasm is undimmed.
The bank has had its issues relating to offenses during the financial crisis but, according to Raghavan, JP Morgan remains "an amazing institution".
He said: "The culture is strong, we have great continuity in our people and their calibre is outstanding."
With company chief executives feeling confident again, given the receding risks of a eurozone blow-up, Raghavan is hopeful that corporates will put expansion back on their to-do list, leading to more M&A activity.
He said: "For the last few years, the focus for the European corporate sector has been on being prudent and strengthening their balance sheets but the bulk of that is now done.
"With the markets very much in 'risk-on' mode, it's now all about earnings momentum and management teams will be under pressure from shareholders to demonstrate that."
With that in mind, Raghavan is hopeful about catching transatlantic currents between Europe and the US, as the former looks to buy into the economic rebound in the latter.
He said: "The US economy has rebounded more quickly than Europe and it may once again serve as a global growth engine. European and global companies looking for growth opportunities realise that having US exposure now may be a very good thing."

By Freedom Newspapers
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is distinguished and polished, as advertised, and generally in command of the issues he discusses. But his views are still troubling on the most important decisions a president has to make, those concerning war and peace.
During the most recent Republican candidates' forum in New Hampshire, Romney made the following statement: " The question (about whether going to war in Iraq was the right decision) is, kind of, a non sequitur … if you will. What I mean by that — or a null set — that is that if you're saying, let's turn back the clock and Saddam Hussein had opened up his country to IAEA inspectors and they'd come in and they'd found that there were no weapons of mass destruction, had Saddam Hussein therefore not violated United Nations resolutions, we wouldn't be in the conflict we're in. But he didn't do those things, and we knew what we knew at the point we made the decision to get in. I supported the president's decision based on what we knew at the time."
Leaving aside the mystifying talk about null sets, that statement suggests that Gov. Romney didn't know or had forgotten that prior to the war Saddam Hussein did allow UN weapons inspectors in, that the inspectors were able to visit most of the sites they wanted to, that they asked U.S. intelligence agencies for more information on specific sites where weapons were expected to be and inspected them, finding no weapons of mass destruction.
When asked if he wanted to correct this impression, Romney reacted somewhat indignantly. What he meant, in context, he said, was that Saddam didn't allow completely unfettered inspections, that he stonewalled and evaded the inspectors. Romney's campaign later sent an e-mail to the Orange County Register to buttress this conclusion, including quotes from Condoleezza Rice, deputy secretary of defense Richard Armitage, and the Iraq Study Group.
It is certainly true that there was evasion and deception on the part of Saddam's regime even during the inspections just prior to the war. It is also true, however, that the inspectors found no weapons of mass destruction, nor were any found later, and that it was President Bush, not Saddam Hussein, who informed the IAEA that it would be prudent to end the inspections, since, as we soon discovered, the United States had already decided to invade Iraq.
The idea, then, that if the inspections had continued and found no WMD there would have been no war is disingenuous at best.
Apparently there were many reasons the United States chose to begin that war. It may be true, as former assistant Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz said later, that the administration settled on WMD as the major justification because it was easiest to explain.
Even if the inspectors had found WMD, however, it remains the case that what the administration undertook was not a preemptive war — one designed to counter an imminent threat — but what scholars of international relations call a preventive war — one designed to eliminate what might have become a real threat some years down the road. As we argued at the time, that's not the kind of war it is healthy for the United States to initiate.
One may disagree with that conclusion, of course. But to perpetuate the belief that the decision about war was entirely in Saddam Hussein's hands is naive at best.

Upcoming Shows:
Coachella 2017: 4/14-16 @ Empire Polo Fields
You're silly. They can prepare one long set, and just shorten it for the non-headlining weekend.
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
The will both most likely get the same set length both weekends with The Stone Roses playing last during weekend one and Blur doing the same on weekend two.
Am I the only one who really doesnt see Blur and SR switching spots?
The Replacements --> The Knife --> Outkast
I think they will both get the same amount of time (80min) both weekends but they will switch spots so that they both get to headline, they probably would of done the same thing with Kanye and the Strokes but they were not doing two weekends back then.
We will find out for sure the week of the show with the set times.
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
In other words, they never guaranteed bands would play identical setlists and also you're an idiot.
Radiohead always changes up their sets anyway.
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
I hate this thread.
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
What the fuck? Same sets? Where was that ever said? Pretty sure if a band wants to switch up their set or play a different song, they can, and they will. In fact, I saw this exact thing happen NUMEROUS times last year with SEVERAL bands (not just Radiohead).
i mean, it's absurd. once a band gets on stage, they can take a shit for an hour if they want.
anyone think cee-lo didn't get paid after his abomination? no.
sly stone? you know that dude cashed their check already, otherwise, his no shoe having ass woulda been right where he needed to be.
foot locker.
Though I will say that I heard the contract for the Buzzcocks stated that certain songs HAD to be played...now I thought bullshit on that but the person telling me this was dead serious and said they saw the contract themselves to verify it (they were friends with one of the dudes in the band).
Why is Loco Dice in a smaller font than the rest of the bands on the same line? That bugs me.
2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2012b, 2013a, 2014a, 2016a, 2017a

Network Spinal Analysis In Denver, CO Improves Health And Awareness While Raising Consciousness
Most people have life event memories, some good, some so-so and some they never want to recall, but whatever that memory may be, it produces energy that the body stores. There is not just one place it stores it either, which means it can be felt in the regions of the spine and the nervous system. This is very true if the experience is one the body doesn't want to go through again. The cerebral cortex of the brain is where people have their awareness and consciousness and, when it doesn't want to go through something again, it becomes disconnected. However, with the assistance of a Denver chiropractor, the body can work through it all, having awareness and consciousness.alternative care, Alternative Medicine, education, health, health fitness, Meditation, self improvement, spiritually, transformation, wellness, women's issues, Yoga

Named for a French general and American ally during the Revolution, Lafayette is a city that
shows its French influence thru food and culture. If you're looking for Lafayette hotels ,
Extended Stay America has a great place to stay at a great price.
The city's economy has
long been connected to the petroleum and natural gas industries, as demonstrated by the fact that
C & C Technologies, a major geophysical survey and mapping company, is headquartered in Lafayette.
This international company collects data in the deep ocean waters around the world. C & C's
offices are just a half mile from the Extended Stay America Lafayette - Airport
Tourism is also a major industry, not surprising given the region's Cajun and Creole
history. Lafayette hosts the second largest Mardi Gras in Louisiana and is well known for having
the highest number of restaurants per capita in the United States.
The University of
Louisiana Lafayette, a public research university, has the distinction of being in the top 5% of
all U.S. colleges in providing doctorate degrees through its Carnegie Research designation and is
just three miles from the Extended Stay America Lafayette - Airport hotel.
Lafayette is also
a great place to spend some free time at local venues like Acadian Village, a reconstructed Cajun
bayou community. You can also add some spice to your visit by taking a 45 minute trip to the
Tabasco plant in Avery Island. Here you can see how this wonderful pepper sauce is made and even
tour the facilities.
Lovers of the outdoors can take in the Rip Van Winkle Gardens on
Jefferson Island. Here one will find giant oaks, cypress trees, and various water foul scurrying
about the ponds. Flowers in every color of the rainbow are complemented by grand peacocks
traversing the garden grounds.
For golfers, the Tamakha Trails Golf Club in Marksville, the
home of three U.S. Open qualifiers, is just two hours north. For something a little closer, the
Wetlands Golf Course, an 18-hole municipal course, is just six miles north of the Extended Stay
America Lafayette - Airport Hotel.
No matter your reason for visiting Lafayette, Louisiana, Extended
Stay America is a terrific choice.

Obama To Sandy Victims: "We Leave Nobody Behind"
Obama was out trying to "look" presidential yesterday in the wake of Sandy, and I caught this
Obama to Sandy victims "America is with you". Yeah, we were with Benghazi victims, too. But, you weren't, champ!
— WilliamTeach (@WilliamTeach) October 30, 2012
The whole "hey, look, I'm acting presidential" speech was even worse, and he said:
(Breitbart) This is a tough time for a lot of people; millions of folks all across the Eastern Seaboard, but America's tougher. And we're tougher because we pull together, we leave nobody behind, we make sure we respond as a nation and remind ourselves that whenever an American is in need, all of us stand together to make sure we're providing the help that's necessary.
As John Nolte writes
That's a beautiful sentiment, Mr. President, but where was it when the cameras weren't rolling; when your government heard three plaintive pleas for assistance from Americans under attack and with help reportedly close enough to make a difference?
John points out that it is an interesting study in reactions, one where Obama is appearing as engaged and has suspended his campaign, the other where he tuned out and hit the campaign trail to head to Vegas. It begs the question "why did the Obama administration act in that fashion post-Benghazi?" Obama could have come out smelling like a rose had he sent in forces to rescue our people in Benghazi and come out strong against this terrorist attack. Instead, people are now wonder exactly what was going on that caused the administration to leave Americans to die.
The White House Flickr stream has a bunch of photos of Obama "looking concerned" over Sandy (such as this one), but nothing from September 11 when our people were under assault.
Nice Deb is not impressed by Obama's words, nor is the PJ Tattler and The Gateway Pundit. I'm sure there will be plenty of photos of Obama "looking presidential" coming soon to be even more not impressed by.

February's page of the 2012 Pure Michigan calendar features a photo of an ice climber scaling a frozen waterfall in Munising, one of the state's most popular destinations for the activity. Garrett Peabody, owner of Peabody Ice Climbing Club in Fenton, shares some insights into this exciting sport and why Michigan is such a popular destination for it.
Q: How does somebody get started with ice climbing?
A: Ice climbing is a lot like rock climbing with respect to movement and belay systems. Understanding those concepts helps when getting started, though they can be learned quickly. Climbing outdoors or in a climbing gym is a great place to practice those skills in a controlled environment. That said, ice climbing requires additional considerations because of conditions and needed equipment.
Q: What equipment do you need?
A: Clothing suitable for cold temperatures with a water resistant shell is best. Harness, boots, ice axes, crampons, helmet and gloves. Eye protection helps too. The equipment is technical, and it helps to have a knowledgeable person go through its features and functions prior to using.
Q: Do you need any special skills?
A: A sense of awareness helps. Ice climbing involves inherent risk. The risk can be addressed by being aware of the situation and learning from others with experience.
Q: Where can you ice climb around Michigan?
A: Most of the climbing in Michigan is focused along the shore of Lake Superior in Munising. There are literally miles of sandstone cliff lined with hundreds of frozen waterfalls ranging from 20 to 210 ft tall.
Q: Do people travel to Michigan to ice climb?
A: Absolutely. Many come from surrounding states as we are home to one of the best ice climbing regions in the country.
Q: Do you have any tips for ice climbers – regardless of experience?
A: Communication is key. Climbing is an individual and team pursuit combined. Being aware of your and your partner's combination of ability and experience is inherent to safety and success.
Q: How can people learn more about ice climbing?
A: The Michigan Ice Fest in Munising in early February is the best way to see and experience the sport firsthand in its true element. It is hosted by Downwind Sports out of Marquette. Interested individuals can demo equipment, participate in a clinic with a professional climber, view slide shows of their trips, do some climbing and see the scenery. There is a lot of info online. Alternatively, interested parties can contact us if they have questions.
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about the Peabody Ice Climbing Club?
A: Peabody Ice Climbing Club is an ice climbing venue. Two towers, 45 and 72 ft tall, are iced over in the winter to offer a place for experienced ice climbers to train. Trying out ice climbing on these towers also provides a great introduction to people interested in the sport. The club is located on an old apple orchard south of Fenton. We provide gear and instruction. See our Facebook page for conditions and general information. Call us at (810)433-3304 or e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com with questions.

text: What is the simplest, gentlest way to wean my baby from needing to nurse down for a nap? It doesn't bother me to do this, and I don't mind nursing down at night, but I want other people to be able to put him down for a nap. I am going back to work, so DH will be putting him down. When he needs to go to day care in the fall, I don't want the DCP to have lots of problems putting him down. TIA for your suggestions!

Do you warm the milk in bottles and in the straw cup? If he's used to warm bottles, you may want to warm milk in his cup for a bit and slowly decrease how much you warm it.
Do you warm the milk in bottles and in the straw cup? If he's used to warm bottles, you may want to warm milk in his cup for a bit and slowly decrease how much you warm it.
Mommy to:
Emmalynn Marie
Born at 37 weeks on 12/22/06
5lbs 1oz 19 1/2in
Owen Charles
Born at 29 wks 6 days on 01/17/09
2lbs 14oz 15in
In NICU for 2 months
I am certainly not an expert, but I can tell you what worked for my DS. First off, we weaned slowly. The process took a little over 5 months. I pump weaned at work first since I hated to pump. Next, we night weaned since everyone needed better sleep. We then gradually dropped a session every few weeks. He weaned onto a straw cup, which he still uses now at almost 3.5 years old. The last session we dropped was the one at bedtime.
Thank you all for your continued words of encouragement and support. I am in the process now of trying to get him to go to bed with someone else (we're starting with daddy) but he is reluctant to realize it's bedtime.
Last night I warmed a bottle for him to have and then daddy takes LO (with his bottle) to his room, where it's nice and quiet and dark, and puts him in his crib to drink it but he isn't happy about it and cries like you're poking him with a sharp stick. When he get's picked up he just keep trying to crawl out of daddy's arms. I had to eventually go to his room and pick him up to calm him down and hold him (I didn't nurse him and he didn't seem to mind) but he didn't want me to put him down until he was too tired to care.
Can I make this easier for everyone? I feel like I'm going about this the wrong way.

text: ALLEGHENY COUNTY AIRPORT AUTHORITY AGREES TO ACCEPT PUBLIC ART SCULPTURE 'ARCH' FOR DISPLAY AT PITTSBURGH INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT PITTSBURGH, PA (December 17, 2012) – The Allegheny County Airport Authority has approved placement of Glenn Kaino's Arch for display at Pittsburgh International Airport. Currently Arch is undergoing restoration work and will likely be placed in the Landside Terminal of Pittsburgh International Airport this spring, in time to be a welcoming site for the major national convention for Americans for the Arts set for Pittsburgh June 14, 2013. "Public art enhances the passenger experience while flying and helps to promote our region. The sculpture is loved by a wide range of audiences. It is a perfect 'greeter' at the airport for people coming to or departing the region. Arch can impact economic development by attracting visitors and transforming the airport environment," said Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald. "The Art in the Airport program provides oversight to an art collection of style, diversity and beauty that can be enjoyed by the traveling public and employees. We are pleased to work with the Pittsburgh Arts Council and The Heinz Endowments in accepting this significant work of art," stated David Minnotte, Chairman, Allegheny County Airport Authority. "The sculpture is immediately identifiable as a Pittsburgh icon. It is a 'transformer', a robot, created out of Pittsburgh's bridges, referencing both Pittsburgh's industrial and high-tech industries. Arch was originally located at the corner of Seventh Street and Fort Duquesne Boulevard in Downtown Pittsburgh's Cultural District. We have been working with The Heinz Endowments to seek a new indoor home for Arch and we are pleased that the Airport Authority is granting the sculpture a new home and placing the artwork in a location accessible to both visitors and residents," said Renee Piechocki, Director, Office of Public Art, a partnership between the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council and the City of Pittsburgh Department of City Planning. Arch was commissioned to celebrate Pittsburgh's 250th Anniversary as part of a larger initiative. The sculpture possesses both large scale visual impact and intimate detail, lending itself to different levels of interest depending on where the viewer is located.

How to Talk to People About CAM
Recently a correspondent asked me for advice about his parents. He said they use things like homeopathy, acupuncture, and copper bracelets. They use conventional medicine too, but it seems to be a 50/50 approach that gives each an equal weighting. He has tried to talk to them about things like homeopathy and the placebo effect, but the shutters come down hard and fast. He tries to criticize the alternative treatment itself without offending or attacking the person, but his mother still sees it as a personal attack. He worries that as they get older and in need of more medical care, his parents may not make the best decisions. He asks about how to tactfully have these conversations and perhaps change their point of view.
That's a very tough question that gets asked a lot, and I don't have any good answers; but I do have some thoughts and untested ideas that could serve as the starting point for a discussion, and I hope readers will pipe up in the comments and tell us what has or hasn't worked for them. (more…)

The Spokane sheriff's office says it's seeing more incidents where security guards or citizens confront shoplifters or robbers.
The office says this is putting more people at risk, as suspects may have a gun and be under the influence of drugs.
The sheriff's office said Monday it discourages people confronting criminals and says witnesses should call police.


text: I fell down the stairs and I'm in the ER. I was in alot of pain and in a moment of poor judgement I let the doctors give me morphine and dilaudid (sp?). Does anyone know how I can find out how long I need to pump and dump before I can nurse again? I'm not sure I can trust the ER doctors on that. Thanks!

Can the Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15 Keep Oily Skin Shine-Free?
Many women think they are cursed with an oily T-zone, where oil glands work overtime at the forehead, nose and chin areas. Well, if they saw how soaked my blotting sheet is after a blotting session, they'd feel blessed that oiliness is concentrated only at their T-zone instead of the WHOLE FACE like mine.
I try as many methods and products possible (within reasonable budget and common sense, of course) to keep my face as shine-free as possible, at least for a good half of the day.
Mineral makeup worked up the oils on my skin within 2 hours and accentuated my pores, makeup face primers like the Stila Hydrating Primer turned me into an oil slick, liquid foundations that claim to give the 'glowy finish' usually give me the 'greasy finish' and sometimes even setting it with loose powder barely works.
Sigh, these are just fragments of an oily girl's woes.
When I chanced upon a review on Youtube about the Murad Oil Control Mattifier SPF 15 being a great product that helps to keep shine away, I was immediately interested! Anything that controls oil!

I'd love to see Parker whizzing around the Garden man. That would be sick, wicked and nasty.The wild card in the point-guard market remains Tony Parker. Once source said the Spurs are hellbent on moving him, but that will take time to play out. The Knicks are the most likely destination for Parker, but they need to address their top priority LeBron before they go down that road.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
For NY, the best case scenario to obtain Parker's services, would be a non salary matching swap. That's possible for us as a team under the cap. The best of the best case scenario would be losing cheap, young players for Parker.
As far as satisfying the Spurs goes, we'd most realistically have to send Lee for Tony. But that isn't necessarily in SA's best interest.
Here's how I see it. It's pretty out there, but it's dividing all our eggs in to more than one basket.
Spurs owner, Peter Holt, is reportedly unimpressed with the teams cap situation and is looking to reform through youth while he has vets like Manu and Duncan onboard as tutors for the next wave of Spurs.
SA also have the legal rights to go after Tiago Splitter of Brazil this year.
If the Spurs sign Splitter, they'll have a nasty front court backed up by Blair.Splitter, a 2.12 m (6 ft 11½ in) 111 kg (245 pound) center was named the MVP of the Spanish Supercup tournament in both 2006 and 2007. He was also named to the All-Euroleague First Team for the Euroleague 2007-08 season, after leading Saski Baskonia to the Euroleague Final Four. The following year, Splitter reached the Euroleague 2008-09 season playoffs, but failed to win another Final Four participation. His performances earned him a spot on the 2008-09 All-Euroleague Second Team nevertheless.
Splitter was named the Spanish League MVP in 2010.[1]
Richard Jefferson is most likely out:
And with George Hill shining through for them, they're set at the 1 and have 2 years of Ginobili left.Richard Jeffersons decision to opt out of the final $15 million season of his contract might not be a sign hes willing to leave the San Antonio Spurs.
Sources said Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has been personally working out Jefferson in San Antonio

So, bar the SF position, they're practically set, with future cap flexibility in place.
1 Hill
2 Manu
3 - - - -
4 Duncan
5 Splitter
If NY were to offer; Toney D, Chandler and Fields to SA, they'd have to give it some serious consideration, if their goal is to start anew.
The combined salary of the 3 is less than $4M. They're young, Chandler has had a lot of PT experience and a qualifying offer in 2011/12, Douglas has shown promise, Fields as a 2nd round rookie doesn't effect their cap. Result - an instant saving of $10M and a position filled with both a starter and a backup at SF. Douglas, obviously, backs Hill.
NY in effect get Toney Parker for $9.5M after the +/- of the traded salaries. The salary sheet then equates to $24M with a $56.1M cap set in place. > $32M to spend.
So, I'm thinking:
1 Parker - Rautins
2 Walker - someone - please not Korver or Miller
3 Gallo - Giddens
4 Lee - Barron
5 Stat - Jordan
It can be done. Oh yes It can.
And it's no less likely than signing James or Bosh.
"The Knicks are back" - Amare
I beg to differ.
The Knicks and Spurs would def be open to that move.
Tiago splitter and Blair sound like a solid foundation of PF's in the future but if the Spurs want to improve right now, it's David Lee.
"The Knicks are back" - Amare
If they add Lee at around $11M with annual salary increments, then that won't help their situation.
It all depends on Splitter. He'd be the cheaper option and the better defender. He's got some game.
I think this all depends on what SA feels about Mike D'antoni really. Pops and SA had some battles with PHO. Is there bad blood still? If not, then I see this going down.
I'm sure they would like to help Parker out.... Meaning, they would opt to send him to where he wants to go. I'm sure Parker would love to come to NYC, and play in the SSOL system. I'm also sure SA would be intent on dealing him to the Eastern Confernece so they wont have to face him in the playoffs.
So, it boils down to that. Is there bad blood between D'ant and Pops, so much so that it would spoil any potential deal? If not, then I'm positive something would be worked out.
If cap relief is what they seek, then they can take Curry. We could send them Chandler if they're looking for a young player. Maybe even Fields. Who knows.
I would prefer Parker over signing Johnson to a 6-year max.
Good point about SA sending TP to a place he wants to go and where he'll be out of the way.
I think that whether or not they get A$$ Splitter is the other big key in us retaining Lee. Unless one of the 4 teams interviewing him shortly offer him a lot of cash before LeBron makes his call.
With Duncan, Mcdyess and Blair (along with this Brazilian kid), Curry would fill out the depth chart. They would find this a win-win situation. If Curry never plays, then big deal. They save 2 million dollars, and let the youth movement begin at the PG.
But what if Curry returns to form in a contract year? Curry-Duncan would be a formidable duo. HOw to you guard it. Plsu he would be another big body to bang around in the paint.
There's some logic here. But it all depends on how badly they want to move Parker, and how they feel about D'ant.
I do agree with the D'Antoni point though. But I think your other point outweighs it - send Parker as far away as possible and pay him homage by letting him pick the team.
Splitter is key. He gets the chance to work under Duncan and is foolish if he doesn't take it. ****ing SA and there brilliant luck!
If the Splitter signing materialises, then the only thing holding us back from this trade or a signing that'll make for equally appealing circumstances is the crucial timing of James' decision.
I personally would prefer to make this proposal today at 10:00am your time.
Via [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]:
I talked with Pop (Popovich Greppi, Spurs coach), he told me that Im not going anywhere, says the French LEquipe on Tuesday. New York and Portland were the two most serious tracks, its true, but San Antonio has said no. And I love the club. I want to stay to the last year of contract and then be a free agent.
Finger Point to [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
This of course does not mean the Spurs wont deal TP, but it has to be the right deal. And having RJ opt-out strengthens Parker staying,
However, this is like when an owner gives his coach a vote of confidence, only to chop off the head a week later.
We would have to give more than Curry. Chandler-Douglas probably.
Sure they can have him for another year but they will not sign huge dollars for him when he is a free agent.
The Spurs will pull what the Nuggets pulled with Carmelo, knowing he won't stay multiple years so they tell teams to offer whatever for a trade.
"The Knicks are back" - Amare
I think no way they do this. Think about it, we get their 3-time all-star, Finals MVP in exchange for our useless 7-footer or some bench scrubs? Every body in the league knows we're trying to dump these guys and nobody wants them.
I don't think they'd take him just cause he's big. They just renounced two of their bigs.
Jefferson opting out makes it even more unlikely the Spurs will deal Parker. The Spurs will still be slightly over the cap but will need to find a SF on top of bringing Splitter over and filling out the roster. They're not gonna top that off with trying to replace an All-Star PG.
The only shot the Knicks have at getting Parker is if Jefferson re-signs to a more modest contract.
That video of those 2 musical moo cows is hilarious. That dude spent way too much time in the "psychadelic ballroom".
And yes, Jefferson's opt out does make it a lot less likely. You'd be glad to see Jefferson gone as a fan of SA I assume?
Well if he opts out and leaves without a S&T I'll be really pissed because the Spurs will be in the same position (MLE, LLE, minimum contracts) as they were before he opted out but will need to add finding a starting SF to their to-do list. It would screw them over. Unfortunately the best, most realistic option is him re-signing for less. I'd love to see him go in a S&T, bringing the Spurs a nice trade exception but I don't see it happening.And yes, Jefferson's opt out does make it a lot less likely. You'd be glad to see Jefferson gone as a fan of SA I assume?
I really don't see the Spurs trading Parker at this point. Hill is NOT a 1 and they don't really have a backup PG other than Manu. They're not gonna give up their All-Star PG and be left with basically nothing. Sorry knicks fans. Just be glad Johnson got a max offer from Atlanta

First, country music fans are encouraged to dust off their cowboy hats, shine up their boots and get ready for some fun. The Almost Patsy Cline Band from Bandera is returning to town to bring some good music and goodwill to the Beeville Country Club on Saturday, Aug. 24.
The acclaimed band will perform from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. and is being sponsored here by the Hall-Rialto Preservation Association as a fundraiser for the Rialto Theater. Everyone is invited to support the community project of refurbishing the historic downtown theater. Those in attendance also may view items on display in a silent auction.
Heavy hors d'oeuvres will be served and a cash bar will be available. Tickets are $75 each and may be purchased at Hogue's Jewelry, Libby Spires Tax Office, Wicker Basket and a Place for Paws.
Next, on Thursday, Aug. 29, Dr. James Hoffmeier will deliver two riveting and informative lectures about the Bible, archaeology and history, and the Israelite Exodus from Egypt in this one-night only engagement.
Hosted by the Coastal Bend College Foundation and CBC Social Sciences Division, the event will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. in the Gertrude R. Jones Auditorium on the CBC campus.
Tickets are available exclusively online at http://cbclectureseries.eventbrite.com. Adult tickets are $12 each and student tickets (with ID) are $7 apiece.
A VIP dinner includes a catered, Texas style BBQ feast from 4:30-5:30 p.m. with Dr. Hoffmeier. VIP ticket holders also will have a seat reserved for them within the first rows of the auditorium. Less than 20 VIP tickets are available.
Then, on Sunday, Sept. 8, the Bee County Habitat for Humanity affiliate will host its first general public fundraiser, a chicken barbecue dinner, at Faith Lutheran Church.
With considerable help from the Gulf Coast Chapter of Thrivent and men at Faith Lutheran, barbecue plates will be served from 11:45 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the church, 1500 E. FM 351, either by drive through or dine in.
Tickets are $7 each and can be purchased from Don Taylor (362-3443), Bee Agricultural Co. (358-3470), here at Beeville Publishing Co. (358-2550) or from members of the Bee Habitat board of directors. They hope to begin their first home build next year.
These offerings should appeal to a multitude in this community, perhaps beyond, and take our minds off the heat for a while.

State senators from Wisconsin and Minnesota made a bet on Saturday's Green Bay Packers-Minnesota Vikings game at Lambeau Field.
Wisconsin Senators Tammy Baldwin and Ron Johnson announced their friendly wager with Minnesota Senators Al Franken and Amy Klobuchar on Friday morning.
Senators Baldwin and Johnson wagered a case of Wisconsin craft beer against a case of local Minnesota beer from Senators Franken and Klobuchar.
"The Vikings have outperformed all the experts' predictions this year, and I'm sure they'll continue to do so this weekend at Lambeau Field in Green Bay," Senator Franken said. "I'm looking forward to watching the Vikings win and to enjoying a Wisconsin beer with Sen. Klobuchar in the very near future."
"This has been an exciting week," Senator Baldwin said. "But it's only going to get better when the Packers beat the Vikings and put an end to this trash talking from my Minnesota colleagues."
