Web Service Keys for APIs Workshop
Web Service Keys, commonly referred to as WSKeys, are the primary method used for authenticating and authorizing interactions with web services available on the OCLC WorldShare Platform. WSKeys authenticate clients sending requests to web services, in effect, creating a "secure pipe" between a remote client and the data and functionality available through web services on the WorldShare Platform.

Sightseeing on the Delaware; May the Fort be with you!
Although the complex was never really a military installation, the threats of everyday life in the wilderness and the inherent danger that came with the territory were very real, and the stockade served a purpose. "Although friendly relations with the Lenape were in place," Conway continued, "there were unknowns when other tribes were encountered, and if settlers were unnerved, the women and children would hole up in the original Lower Fort, and signals would alert the others, but it appears that the only real threat occurred there in 1763. It's a great story that visitors can hear in detail when they come to visit."
Not far away, the very real Battle of Minisink is re-created each year and throughout the season the Fort Delaware Museum hosts lecturers and scholars who stop in to share the "very colorful, very rich" history that the region was home to. "The sacrifices that these people endured were no less real than those who encountered battles during better known scenes of war," Conway continued, "and the tableaus of everyday life recreated here are faithful depictions."
I strolled the grounds with a guide, who was well versed, and his anecdotal references were interesting, informative and vividly illustrated the settler's life. Around every corner, re-enactors could be found in period dress, making history come alive, and I learned a great deal about colonial life during my stay. "We get a lot of visitors en route to another destination," Conway reported, "and the Fort provides a picture of what was going on in America during this period in history. According to the National Trust for Historic Preservation, 90% of traveling Americans make it a point to explore places of historical significance, and it is our goal to provide those visitors with a great experience. I love observing the kids who are being exposed to a radically different way of life. As they put down the iPads and cell phones, they are transported to another era and seem to walk away with renewed appreciation for what they have, and what their predecessors did not."

Don't waste your freebie on this.

This is basically an advertising pamphlet for Xlear (which is a good nasal spray). I was kind of hoping it would have some actual technical and diet advice, or maybe some lifestyle changes that could help. All the information in this booklet can be found by doing a google search, reading any online article on sinus problems, and by reading the back of the Xclear nasal spray box. Keep your freebie for something useful, like GABA so you can have wild dreams.

Special, Sinus Health, Breathe Easy the Natural Way, 32 Page Paperback Booklet is one of the better "books" that are in the freebie section. Too bad that there is plenty of Xlear product selling in this book, but the book is still well worth reading. Some innfo about health benefits of Xylitol too.

Reviews of this property
Super friendly hosts, thank you for everything.
The house is small, but everything is there! Very comfortable and it is on its own.
The only negative point, there is a lack of storage space.
Perfect location!
Super-freundliche Gastgeber, danke für alles.
Das Haus ist klein, aber alles da! Sehr gemütlich und man ist für sich alleine.
Einziger Negativpunkt, es fehlt an Stauraum.
Perfekte Lage!
It is a lovely cottage, about 2 km outside Gua de Isora. It is a quiet area. It is a neat little house, with all the trimmings. With fifteen minutes you are on the coast near Alcala or San Juan.
Het is een heerlijk buitenhuisje, ongeveer 2 km buiten Guá de Isora. Het is een rustige omgeving. Het is een net huisje, met alles erop en eraan. Met een kwartier ben je aan de kust bij Alcala of San Juan.

My lo is 13 months old, and he never took a bottle. He has been ebf the whole time. He drinks water from a sippy cup and generally sips throughout the day, taking maybe 8-10 oz.
He bfs 4 times each day-- when he gets up, before both naps, and before bedtime.
I have no idea how to wean him. I've read a lot about the "how to," but a lot of it is geared to babies who have taken a bottle and are used to something other than the breast.
What is the best way to start weaning? Please, any help would be appreciated. I am quite in the dark!


text: Okay ladies so I don't know what to do! I am nursing a 2 week old and tandem nursing my 31 month old.... and my milk supply keeps increasing.. i was at first just pumping 1 a day (becasue I was so full), but now tonight will be my third time pumping today within a 24 hour period! Is it unreasonable of me to think that maybe I'm producing way too much milk... I am getting use to nursing an infant again.. and juggling nursing my toddler...(she only nurses two or three times a day at the most), and I was okay with pumping once a day... but three times a day on top of nursing two.. I just think its too much... WDYT? Any suggestions?

Not too long ago we discussed controlling unwanted noise in the home. Your feedback confirmed this is a hot topic so we'll look deeper at reducing noise from within the home, starting with sounds that originate within an area.
Ever walk into an empty house for sale? Sounds echo as sound waves bounce back and forth against hard surfaces (flooring, walls, windows, ceilings). Materials such as rugs, carpet and carpet pad, upholstered, padded furniture and soft, lined window coverings help absorb sound.
Noise also echoes in tall ceilings. Design Basics lead designer Carl Cuozzo notes that even in big custom homes he's designing today, buyers are opting for 11-foot high ceilings rather than 2-story high spaces. According to Cuozzo, "You still get the drama and taller doors and windows without so much echo and energy loss."
Soft close hinges for cabinet doors and drawers virtually eliminates the sound of these closing. Similarly, soft-close toilet seats eliminate that "bang". Having a dishwasher in a kitchen island introduces more noise than if the dishwasher backs up to a wall. And of course quieter dishwashers, refrigerators, laundry pairs, exhaust fans, food waste disposers, and furnaces will reduce noise at its source.
Another source of unwanted noise in homes comes from sound traveling into one area from other areas. Solid core doors block significantly more sound than hollow core doors. For walls themselves, Quiet Rock® and SoundBreak® are special drywall products which absorb considerably more sound than standard drywall.
QuietZone® Acoustic Sealant
George Auen at Fougner Engineered Sales suggests, "If you want the best sound isolation, use the acoustic drywall over sound isolation clips. The resulting sound transmission is so good you could swear you were deaf! Auen also recommends using an acoustic caulk (like Owens Corning® Acoustic Sealant) around the perimeter of the walls, lid, and any gaps need to be addressed (like electrical boxes, pipes, etc.). Thanks, George!
From the perspective of a home's layout, having a separate entertaining place for the kids when entertaining other adults is golden. That way their Xbox games or even loud conversations don't have to disrupt the adults.
Finally, you can enjoy a more serene environment by minimizing sounds transmitted through the structure of the home by vibration. Certain sound waves cause vibration which is amplified as it passes through walls. When possible, locating items which create noise and vibration (i.e., big screen TV, clothes washer, dish washer) to exterior walls rather than adjoining interior walls will help.
Here again, product choices can go a long way in minimizing noise and vibration. An excellent example is your choice of garage door opener, especially if there is a room over the garage! Then there's Acoustiblok®, an 1/8"-thick, flexible sound proofing mat that can be glued, stapled, nailed or screwed to floors and walls. According to the manufacturer, Acoustiblok® actually transforms sound and vibration into inaudible friction energy. So if your son's is a drummer...

The UTEPCollege of Business Administration offers the only AACSB
Accredited business programs in the El Paso border region.
July 17, 2013
Every year, The University of Texas at El Paso and the UTEP Alumni Association honor a group of distinguished men and women whose achievements stand out as monuments to dedication, integrity and hard work – they are the UTEP Distinguished Alumni.
The Distinguished Alumni award is the highest recognition bestowed upon alumni of the University. The 2013 Distinguished Alumni will be officially recognized during UTEP's 2013 Homecoming Week, Sept. 29-Oct. 5.
This year's Distinguished Alumni include a former College of Business Administration Gold Nugget, Mr. Robert Wingo.
Robert V. Wingo
President and CEO of Sanders\Wingo Advertising Inc., El Paso
Despite his work with the Martin Luther King, Jr., National Memorial Foundation board in Washington, D.C., job offers in New York and clients from major companies around the country, Wingo feels most at home in El Paso.
Now president and CEO of Sanders\Wingo Advertising Inc. in El Paso, he started as the first in his family to graduate from college when he earned a bachelor's degree in marketing from UTEP in 1973.
He joined the advertising firm as co-owner in 1984 after working up to vice president of advertising at Billy the Kid, a non-defunct El Paso boys apparel company. He has since helped expand Sanders\Wingo to Austin and New York, with satellite operations in Atlanta and Los Angeles.
Sanders\Wingo has worked with national clients including AT&T, Burger King, Mini Cooper, State Farm Insurance and the United States Postal Service. His local clients include Peter Piper Pizza, GECU, the Convention and Visitors Bureau and El Paso Water Utilities.
Today, Wingo is focused on creating opportunities for young people by inviting students to visit the company's offices and offering internships.
"The more people we can help and train to be better leaders for today and tomorrow, the better off we are," he said.

Difficult question for me to answer, because I do not know very well who was available this off-season. But I also think Ray Allen would have been a strong signing, because he would come in and drain the treys, drop the buckets. Ray Allen is a Hall of Fame player so you can't go wrong by signing him.
I really like our signings though, and I do not see much that I would like to change.
For the first time in many years the team looks complete.

Water towers are a common sight in New York. Wherever you are, if you look up, chances are you'll see at least one, if not a small forest of them dotting the skyline. I grew up with them as part of my childhood landscape, taking them for granted and never really knowing if or how they worked. Do all of those wooden containers still hold water? And if so, how does the water get in, and then out, of them? Read the rest of this entry »

Detox Diets Debunked
Sonya heard about it from her yoga teacher. Sarah got the tip at a health food store. Kendell's real estate agent urged her to try it. All three were told detox dieting would rid their body of toxins, give them energy and melt away pounds—fast! You've heard it, too, from celebs like Gwyneth Paltrow, who has emailed cleanse plans to fans through Goop.com, or from ubiquitous ads for supplement regimens and juice-fasting kits.
Here's who won't tell you to detox: doctors and dietitians, most of whom agree the habit can turn disordered and dangerous and may ultimately make you fatter. Detoxers may shed water weight, but it quickly returns. Worse: A lack of nutrients can make your body eat into muscle for energy, slowing your metabolism. It becomes harder to burn calories because your body conserves what little energy it gets, explains Peter Pressman, M.D., an internist with the U.S. Navy Medical Corps and a fellow of the American College of Clinical Nutrition. "Clinical evidence shows that the notion of a nutritional scrub is nothing more than highly profitable fiction," he says.
In truth, our bodies need no extra cleansing. "We have a liver and kidneys, and they are quite efficient at processing out anything toxic," says American Dietetic Association spokeswoman Lona Sandon, R.D., assistant professor of clinical nutrition at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Colon-cleansing products might actually weaken immunity by killing good bacteria that fend off invading germs in the gut. And fasting can trigger arrhythmia and even cardiac arrest because of the rapid loss of key electrolytes.
So why do women say detoxes feel fantastic? "Like other disordered eating habits, it gives people a sense of control," Sandon says. Fasting may have a calming effect caused by the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers, in response to the stress of starvation. And the caffeine in some detox products can provide a shot of energy. When the diet ends, the high fades and women crash, often feeling sick, sad and ashamed they could not stick to their strict regime. So they cleanse again to regain the initial feeling.
It's time to stop sabotaging our bodies! SELF paired five cleanse fans with R.D.s for 30 days to create eating plans that provide everything they hoped for from detox but without the deprivation or danger. Take their tips to get the body and energy you crave, one healthy bite at a time.
Her goal: Beat bloat
Sonya VandeKerkhof, 35, development associate, Elk Rapids, Michigan
Before SELF: 5'7", 150 pounds
After: 140 pounds
Why she cleansed When her Bikram yoga instructor began touting detox diets, VandeKerkhof was pregnant with her first child, and the idea resonated. "I started to think a lot about toxins," she says. "Everything you eat transfers to your baby." After weaning her second baby, she was bloated, tired and anxious, and she finally gave the trend a try, spending $300 for a 28-day Arise & Shine colon-cleanse program. "For three weeks, you eat only raw foods, then for one week you have only juice or water," she says.
Her new eating plan VandeKerkhof made a big discovery when Dara Godfrey, a dietitian in New York City, asked her to keep a food diary. "Turns out, I was a saltaholic," she says. When she wasn't fasting, she snacked regularly on chips and salsa, pickles and olives. "I started eating salsa with cucumber slices or high-fiber crackers instead. Right away I lost 5 pounds." VandeKerkhof also took Godfrey's suggestion that she eat more dairy and protein to keep her feeling fuller longer and that she stabilize her blood sugar levels so she'd feel less moody and less captive to cravings. Godfrey also encouraged VandeKerkhof to eat a high-fiber breakfast (like Kashi Go Lean cereal) and a filling yet portion-controlled lunch (such as vegetable soup and a turkey sandwich on whole wheat), as it was the afternoon crash that typically sent her reaching for salty snacks.
The results At the end of the month on SELF's plan, VandeKerkhof was amazed to find she'd lost 10 pounds. "I have a lot more energy, and I don't feel like I have the highs and lows anymore," she says. "I'll use what I learned in this process for the rest of my life."
Your tip So-called toxins don't cause belly bloat and lethargy, but too much salt will. In addition to cutting back on pickles, olives and chips, watch for stealthy sources such as canned veggies and condiments. Look for high-fiber packaged snacks, like Lärabars and FiberRich crackers, that contain less than 100 milligrams of sodium and help keep the digestive system humming.
Her goal: Feel healthier
Nwenna Kai, 34, author, Philadelphia
Before SELF: 5'5", 109 pounds
After: 110 pounds
Why she cleansed "Cleansing is spiritual for me," Kai says. "It's like cleaning out the debris in my consciousness." While studying in Europe during college, she got sick and her face broke out. After a friend suggested the master cleanse (water, maple syrup, cayenne pepper and lemon juice), Kai's face cleared up. She'll never know if it was the detox or time that healed her. Still, she has done two herbal-supplement detoxes or juice fasts every year since. In between, she eats a raw vegetarian diet. Once she sits down at her desk to work, she becomes so focused that she often forgets to eat. As a result of her skimpy diet, Kai weighs too little. "My goal is to gain because I do want to have a child in a couple of years," she says.
Her new eating plan Kai wasn't getting enough calories or nutrients, especially calcium, iron and B12, she learned from Ruth Frechman, a dietitian in Los Angeles. So Frechman encouraged Kai to incorporate nutrient-rich vegetarian foods such as yogurt, tofu and edamame. Kai also ate almost no fat, so Frechman prescribed avocados, nuts and olive oil, all rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
The results Kai gained a pound, a victory for her. "I feel nourished and motivated to gain weight, which never seemed possible," she says. She has practiced tuning in to hunger signals (stomach growls, light-headedness) and remembering to eat before she gets there. She hopes to slowly put on 10 pounds.
Your tip When you detox, you define eating as unhealthy and starvation as virtuous. Instead of depriving yourself as a ritual, focus on each bite and appreciate its health benefits. "I've started keeping nuts and fruit near me when I work, and I'm taking breaks to sit down and eat," Kai says. "Not only do I like eating more but also getting some quiet time."
Her goal: Avoid temptation
Ginny Edwards, 33, publicist-waitress, Newport Beach, California
Before SELF: 5'3", 116 pounds
After: 112 pounds
Why she cleansed Everywhere she turned, Edwards felt enticed: She loved soda and butter, and a part-time job at the Cheesecake Factory meant she was often eating in a place where "one meal is enough calories for an entire day." When she received a coupon for a BluePrint Cleanse—18 bottles of juice designed to be consumed in a specific order over the course of three days—it seemed like a chance to clean up her diet. "I'm fairly thin, but I'm not gonna say no to weight loss," she explains. "I doubt I would have tried it unless it was free, because it costs $195 for a three-day cleanse." Edwards lost 6 pounds in three days; not only was that more than doctors deem safe, but all the weight came back within a month.
Her new eating plan Frechman switched Edwards to cooking with heart-helping olive oil rather than butter and drinking green tea instead of sugary soda for a caffeine fix. She also suggested dishes at the Cheesecake Factory that contain vegetables, whole grains and lean meats, such as the Spicy Chicken Salad. Edwards began carrying blueberries and lowfat cheese she could snack on when she was tempted.
The results Edwards lost 4 pounds, but the mental lift was the real boon. "I was inspired to start running again," she says. "I know I'll be able to keep up these healthier habits, so I won't feel like I have to cleanse."
Your tip Surviving our unhealthy food environment requires lifelong changes, not quick fixes."I told Ruth once that I couldn't eat something because of my diet," Edwards says. "She told me to stop saying that. This isn't a diet. This is just how I eat now."
Her goal: Drop a size
Sarah Johnson, 31, creator of an organic skin-care line, Breckenridge, Colorado
Before SELF: 5'9", 154 pounds
After: 146 pounds
Why she cleansed Johnson, a mother of four, gained 50 to 60 pounds with each pregnancy and could never manage to get back to her starting weight. "When I'm pregnant, I don't worry about what I am eating at all. Then when I have the baby, I think, Oh, my God. I don't want to be one of those moms who turns into a blob." After her second child, Johnson was 189 pounds and went to a health food store for weight loss ideas. The counselor—who was not an M.D. or an R.D., the only people qualified to give diet advice—suggested a detox. After trying the master cleanse and getting sick to her stomach, Johnson created her own regimen, having only water for 3 days, then only juices for 17 days. She dropped weight, a predictable consequence of not eating solid food for three weeks. But she felt sluggish and bloated and found that she bruised easily. Even after her cleanse, she continued eating too few calories, skipping breakfast and sometimes lunch and forgoing the meals she made for her family to eat merely a raw vegetable plate. She repeated this pattern (overindulging while pregnant, cleansing for 20 days, then eating raw food) two more times. "I was going to extremes," she admits. "I just wanted balance."
Her new eating plan Dietitian Sandon calculated that Johnson was eating only 800 calories a day—so few that she was slowing her metabolism and unable to build muscle. She created a plan to raise Johnson to 1,500 calories a day, enough to get nutrients without bringing on the weight gain Johnson loathed. Working with Sandon, Johnson began eating three meals a day, including a breakfast of egg, fruit and whole-grain toast, which is high in fiber, to keep foods moving through the body. At each meal, Johnson added a nutritious bonus such as a yogurt smoothie for calcium. Finally, Sandon urged Johnson to share in the meals she cooked for her family, to make eating a positive experience for her and to set a good example for her daughters.
The results At the end of the month, Johnson was shocked to find that, even after eating nearly twice as much, she felt less bloated and her clothes fit better. She had lost 8 pounds. "I couldn't believe how great I felt. I no longer had that midday drag. I realized I hadn't been kind to my body by eating as little as possible," Johnson says. "I've felt better in the past 30 days than I have in a long time. I get out of the shower and look at myself in the mirror and feel so great. I'm getting off the roller coaster."
Your tip "Lona put my mind at ease about meats and carbs, which I was scared of," Johnson says. If you've been detoxing to avoid carbohydrates, start slowly by adding two to three servings a day of the healthiest kinds—whole-grain breads and starchy vegetables, including peas, sweet potatoes, squash and corn. Work your way up to the recommended three to five daily servings.
Her goal: Energize
Kendell Renee Kelly, 31, lawyer, Chicago
Before SELF: 5'7", 170 pounds
After: 167 pounds
Why she cleansed "I was looking for focus," says Kelly, who was traveling for work, studying for the bar, buying a home and moving. She often ate meals out with friends and reached for Twix bars and fries on the road. Kelly's real estate agent suggested her frazzled client try the cleanse outlined in her favorite book, which called for days of only fruit followed by days of vegetable juices. "I needed energy, so I was willing to go along with the potential craziness."
Her new eating plan Instead of detoxing to get more produce, Kelly needed to consume more whole fruit and vegetables as part of a balanced diet, says Dawn Jackson Blatner, a dietitian in Chicago. "Dawn taught me ways to work them in, like adding lots of zucchini to pasta sauce," Kelly says. Kelly planned for treats, such as a small cup of ice cream, that she could enjoy without overdoing it. And she cut back on takeout by cooking big meals and saving half for later.
The results "I felt great right from the start," says Kelly, who also resumed strength training. She didn't lose weight immediately, so "I had to reframe it and make it about my health and energy." By week four, she had lost 3 pounds. "I feel less anxious. All my friends have noticed that I look trimmer. And it's cool to realize I haven't had a french fry in a month."
Your tip Restricting food in stressful times with a detox is counterproductive because it deprives your body of energy. You can get plenty of immune-bolstering vitamin C by filling half your plate with bright produce such as broccoli, bell peppers, kiwifruit, tomatoes and strawberries at every meal, including in restaurants. "The lure of detox is that it's a quick fix," Blatner says. "But whatever you do for a few days will never make up for how you treat your body the other 362 days a year."

I bought this to help boost my thyroid function. Although tests ordered by my doctor did not indicate any problem, a number of factors, plus results from basal temperature measurements, convinced me that I was dealing with hypothyroidism as I pass through menopause. After using this product for about two weeks as directed on the bottle, I have noticed a definite increase in energy and stamina. And it's much less costly than prescriptions, even with health insurance. So far, so good!
This liquid kelp is colorless and has no discernable flavor. I put this into our family's "ice water" in the fridge so whenever someone drinks water, there's some bonus iodine included and no one's the wiser. I wish this came in bigger bottles!

I got enough iodine from my thyroid-medicine, so I had to stop taking extra iodine.
Posted by Anaterma on Jan 12, 2016
unfortunately this acts like a stimulant to me, so i gave it away to my parents. that's a shame, i was really interested in trying this liquid form of iodine which is so often out of stock. turns out wasn't worth it.
Practically Life Saving For Hashimoto's Disease
Posted by 4909907440754977342 on Nov 13, 2012
If you have Hashimoto's disease, you have to use liquid kelp for the knee pain. If you are not sure about Hashimoto's disease and you have pain on the side of your knee....try it. It just might be the answer. I take 2 - 1/2 droppers dull of Liqui-Kelp and my pain is gone is less than 1 minute. My doctor cannot explain it but it does work. My Mom recently found out she has Hashimoto's disease and it takes her knee pain away too. Try it...it works!

I can't remember who posted it (on Facebook or somewhere), but it was something like:
"Bound 2 is a masterpiece. People keep saying they used a green-screen, but I think Kim and Kanye are just very brave."
I hadn't seen it yet, so I assumed this poster was serious and wondered what they did that was so dangerous for the shoot. Needless to say I'm dying right now.
lol @ Kanye fanboys. I think if Kanye made a 4 min video of himself taking a shit people would find some way to call it artistic genius.
The vid matches the quality of the song though, will give it credit for that.

Reginald Derisne was arrested by Brattleboro police shortly after the incident at Moore Court, a housing development in downtown Brattleboro. No one was hurt in the incident.
Derisne was charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a weapon, reckless endangerment, and driving while under the influence, as well as giving false information to a police officer, and several counts of violating conditions of release from an earlier domestic violence case.
According to court records, Judge Katherine Hayes ordered Derisne held for lack of $75,000 bail, and he was also ordered not to have any contact with his alleged victim.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON Long-term U.S. Full StoryMONTPELIER The Vermont attorney generals office says drug companies have complied with a state...

Don't expose cats to the harsh life outdoors
Keep your cats indoors.
The domestic cat (Felis catus) is popular as a pet around the world. From ancient Egypt to the islands of the Pacific, cats are synonymous with human colonization and modernization. We have introduced them to all but the most remote habitats on Earth.
Although we cherish our pets (I live with two myself), there is an enormous cost associated with allowing them to roam outdoors or turn feral. Some argue that cats are "happier" outside and wish to encourage the natural instincts of their pets, while welfare advocates may maintain outdoor "cat colonies." I will argue that these endeavors are well-intentioned, but misguided.
Last summer, results from the "Kitty Cams" project by National Geographic and the University of Georgia were released. Researchers used cameras to track the behavior of domestic cats. As expected, the research produced photo and video evidence of attacks on wildlife. They determined that cats who hunt average two kills per week, and that only one in four kills are brought home. Additionally, A new study by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute suggests that cats in the U.S. kill billions a year.
While wildlife impacts are a large concern for conservationists and environmentalists alike, we must address the impacts on people. In this case, we are primarily threatened by zoonotic diseases. Cats are known to transmit Toxoplasma gondii, a protozoan that affects the brain. Various studies suggest that this parasitic infection is linked to increasing suicide attempts in women, illness in newborn children, and mental illnesses such as schizophrenia. Cats may also transmit rabies, a fatal disease, as evidenced by several Morgantown cases during the summer of 2011.
What about the cats? Outdoor cats often experience dramatically shortened lives. They can be hit by vehicles, accidentally poisoned by commonly used chemicals, encounter dangerous wildlife or other cats, and be exposed to extreme weather events. Even the Humane Society, a well known animal welfare group, encourages owners to keep their cats inside; a point that the National Bird Conservancy also advocates.
There is overwhelming evidence demonstrating that keeping cats indoors is a better option for everyone involved. We know that cats with homes still kill wildlife, and that these cats act as a disease vector. The lives of outdoor cats are particularly harsh, and as advocates of animal welfare, we should be considerate of the dangers these animals face.

Victory! Hospital Stops Hurting Cats in Training Exercises
After a healthy amount of prodding from PETA, Heartland Regional Medical Center in St. Joseph, Missouri, has announced that it is planning to stop jamming hard plastic tubes down cats' windpipes for intubation training in its Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) course. They are making the switch to state-of-the-art manikins by the end of this month.
Back in June, PETA contacted hospital administrators and urged them to replace the cruel use of cats for intubation training. We wanted them to start using the more effective, humane humanlike simulators that are endorsed by the PALS course's sponsor organization and that are used at nearly every PALS facility in the country. Heartland resisted. But after two months, a USDA complaint from PETA, a letter, a phone call from one of the original developers of the PALS course, and thousands of e-mails from caring PETA supporters, Heartland administrators have had a change of heart.
Switching to manikins is purrfect—cats are spared, and nurses, EMTs, and other emergency caregivers get more accurate and effective training.
What's the holdup, St. Louis Children's Hospital?

We now have the knowledge and technology to be done with the CRUEL use of animals for research… So lets end this chapter and move on.
Please, Please stop animal testing NOW!!!!! There are plenty of criminals in prison and I'm sure the results would be more accurate than testing on animals!!!! Just an idea from an animal lover!!!
No animal should suffer at human hands for any reason – ever. This must end.
This is disgusting and inhumane. STOP this barbaric act right now. If you believe in God, you wopuld NEVER hurt any animal like you do. God have mercy on your souls…. BRAVO PETA YOU GET THEM TO STOP !
Absolutely disgusting !! Use other methods!! There are other ways. You people disgust me. Animals deserve to be treated properly. Stop this now!!!!!
Its just horrible horrible….but thanks to all the good work PETA is doing things getting exposed. And we all have to stand together in this fight against cruelty. Until one has loved an animal a part of one's soul remains unawakened
This has to be about grant money. Money and power are the only things that trump humanity. Sad commentary.
i HAVE 3 CATS AND 2 DOGS THAT I LOVE LIKE FAMILY AND TO THINK ABOUT ANYONE HURTING OUR 4 LEGGED FRIENDS JUST BREAKS MY HEART SO WELL DONE PETA KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
I had no idea they did that to cats. How could they get away with it for so long?
THANK YOU PETA for helping these poor little animals! Victory for them is better late than never. Bless you PETA for not giving up your helping so many animals and i just like many others thank youu 3L
please stop testing on animals its mean

September 12 – November 11, 2011
Attention educators! You and your students are invited to enter the 25th-annual Writer's Eye competition. This program challenges writers of all ages to use visual art as inspiration for the creation of original poetry and prose. Docent-led tours incorporate English and Art SOLs and encourage students to look at art through the writer's lens. Contestants submit original writings inspired by selected works from the museum's permanent collection and visiting exhibitions.
Art selections for Writer's Eye 2011 will be drawn from the Museum's new exhibitions Figure Study: The Fourteenth Street School and the Woman in Public, The Dancer and the Dance, and Variety, Archeology and Ornament: Renaissance Architectural Prints from Column to Cornice as well as from the permanent collection.
The Museum is pleased to announce that John Casey and Kevin McFadden will serve as the distinguished judges for Writer's Eye 2011.
John Casey will judge the prose entries from high school and University students, and adults. Casey was born in 1939 in Worcester, Massachusetts, and educated at Harvard College, Harvard Law School, and the University of Iowa. He is the author of five novels including Spartina, which won the 1989 National Book Award for fiction. His most recent book, Compass Rose, was published in 2010. He lives in Charlottesville, and is Henry Hoyns Professor in the English Department at the University of Virginia. He also is literary executor of the estate of Breece D'J Pancake.
Kevin McFadden will judge the poetry entries from high school and University students, and adults. McFadden has published in a wide array of journals, including Denver Quarterly, Fence, Kenyon Review, Ploughshares, Poetry, Prairie Schooner, and Southern Review. His poetry collection Hardscrabble received the Fellowship of Southern Writers' George Garrett Award for New Writing and the Great Lakes Colleges Association's New Writing Award. McFadden is the Chief Operating Officer of the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities, and lives in Charlottesville with his wife, the poet Angie Hogan.
Entries submitted by students in grades 3-8 will be judges by a panel of teachers and writers from the Charlottesville area. All judging for the competition is blind, with the authors' names removed from the work prior to delivery to the judges.
Compositions inspired by the selections can be submitted in the categories of Prose or Poetry, for grades 3-5, 6-8, 9-12, and University/Adult. Entries are judged anonymously by area teachers and writing professionals. Winners are honored at an annual awards ceremony in the spring, and first-, second-, and third-place winning entries are published in the Writer's Eye anthology.

Typing Secret Word Will Kill Almost Any App in Apple's OS X Mountain Lion
Jason Mick
February 4, 2013 6:38 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
"It just works." --Apple
While Microsoft Corp. (
) has received much admonishment for its various Windows bugs over the years, it is a dramatic new bug from the brash challenger of the the operating system world, Apple, Inc.'s (
OS X Mountain Lion
(10.8.2), which has people talking. The bug is startling simple, but it can crash almost any OS X app. All you have to do is type a word and a few characters.
I. Universal Crashes
The forbidden word is "File:///" (case sensitive). Type that in virtual any text input form (be it a notepad, a browser dialogue, a document editor, a calendar appointment, etc.) and the program will die. It appears that similar strings ("fILE:///" or "FILE://aa") can also trigger program crahes. In a bizarre twist, some crashes appear to be dependent on how fast you type certain variants (e.g. "File://" followed by characters). An
Open Radar
user named "Jonathan" shares a movie he made documenting that bizarre behavior
Among the programs confirmed to be infected are Tweetbot, Safari, Chrome, and TextEdit. The program appears to be tied somehow to some sort of deep-rooted API embedded into OS X (it appears not to be the spell-check API as the Safari location bar has no spell check, but is still affected).
In a particularly hilarious (or awful) failure, typing the problem string into Apple's Crash Reporter UI crashes the Crash Reporter.
Mountain Lion has a big bug. [Image Source: HD Wallpapers]
The bug does not affect OS X Lion (10.7) or Snow Leopard (10.6).
II. A Partial Fix?
A handful of apps, such as the image-editor Gimp, appear to be immune, perhaps because they disable whatever the trouble-making interface is. Typing the string in these apps will produce no crash.
Some users suggest that going to System Preferences > Language & Text > Text, and unchecking "Correct spelling automatically" and "Use symbol and text substitution" will stop the crashes in some apps. However, commenters say the apps continue in some programs even after doing that.
One loyal Apple user comments on the bug report:
This is actually a feature. It allows you to shut down all applications before shutting down your Mac:
Crashes Finder if typed into a Finder search field (not Spotlight, though). Crashes Safari if typed into the URL bar. Crashes Mail if typed into the search field. Crashes iTunes when typed into the search field. Crashes system-generated keychain unlock prompts (typed into the "Name:" field) Crashes Reminders if typed into the search field. ...
For now the bug is merely "interesting", but it also represents a potential security flaw. If malicious users start to use it in forms-based attacks, it could become a major headache for OS X users.
Apple for years marketed its products under the slogan "It just works", but has been
plagued with software issues
of late. Some blame Tim Cook, Apple's new CEO who replaced the late Steve Jobs, for the slipping quality. Apple's
iOS maps woes
drew a large amount of national news coverage late last year. Tim Cook
publicly apologized to his company's fans
for the poor showing.
Our Testing:
We confirmed that the bug crashes both Safari and Searchlight. For us the Crash Reporter did not come up even:
...about to crash!
The shell/terminal program in OS X appears to be immune to the crashes:
We'll update if a patch lands.

Hi, everyone,
I have a business trip coming up and my husband is going to take our 18month old to visit his family then. I'll be away from them for about a week. I'm scared that she won't want to nurse after being away from me for that long. Generally, she has no interest in weaning yet. In fact, now that she has learned her code word, she asks to nurse much more often than we used to.
Any suggestions?

No Child Left Behind
Adequate Yearly Progress
Illini Equal Steps
States are responsible for holding schools and districts accountable for student performance on and participation in at least reading and mathematics.
To determine the starting points for reading and mathematics, the 2002 assessment data was analyzed. First, the percent proficient in the school enrolling the 20th percentile of students was determined for reading and math. The percent proficient for reading and math was 40.86% and 39.68%, respectively.
For simplicity, an overall value of 40% was adopted by the state Board at its February 2003 meeting. The federal requirement is for equal increments so that by 2013-14 all students meet or exceed the Illinois Learning Standards. The Equal Steps model demonstrates the required growth.
Click the chart for a larger view. It will open in a new browser window.
Illinois acknowledges that the federal requirement in NCLB is for equal increments so that by 2013-14 all students meet or exceed the Illinois Learning Standards.
The Congressional intention using that language was to ensure that no State waited until near the end of the timeline and then expected enormous, unrealistic growth in the last two or three years.
Illinois concurs with that intent and indeed echoes what is stated in Principle 3 "…expectations for growth in student achievement that is continuous and substantial…"

Today, my son turned 8. We watched as he unwrapped a $55 Nerf gun, extra 'bullets', new shoes and a school bag with his favorite TV character on the front and a action figure inside. As he finished he looked me straight in the eyes and says, "That's great ma, but seriously what'd you get me?". FML

Today, I set up a spy cam in my room to find out which one of my pervy brothers has been using my computer to watch porn. Turns out it was actually my father. I now have a video of him sitting in my chair masturbating, and I can't get it out of my head. FML

Today, I was pulled over and administered a sobriety test due to an officer's suspicion that I was driving under the influence. I was completely sober, and, apparently, I suck at driving. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I were getting intimate. I was getting pretty horny, and I thought some dirty talk would turn him on. Amid my panting, I breathed the words, "Fuck me." He then stopped and said, "Excuse me, I don't like hearing that language." and wouldn't continue until I corrected myself. FML

Today, I sent an email to my boss saying I'd fixed a glitch in our mail servers. He called me later, angrily shouting that I'd done a piss-poor job of fixing it, because my email had spammed his inbox with several hundred duplicate messages. FML

Today, a senile old lady came up to me and offered me chocolate. I noticed that it was ex-lax, so I politely told her no. My 4-year-old daughter pushed me aside and ate the ex-lax, because she thought it was candy. I now have a stinky child on a 3 hour bus ride, with no stops. FML

text: I have no idea what is going on!!! My lo is almost 9 months and has been eating cereal for a couple weeks and a little fruit. She is cutting her first two teeth and has been nursing well. I try to pump twice a day and always at least once. I had been taking two fenugreek a day to help with the pumping. I am only pumping to make a freezer stash as I stay home with my girls. So tonight I went to pump and barely got 3 ounces!!! My lo has seem satisfied at the breast, no problems so I know she is getting plenty but I am almost in a panic that I can't get any more while pumping. Surely to heavens I am not going to stop making milk!!! I nursed my first lo till she was 2 and hope to give as much with this lo. I have been cutting back my calories trying to shed some weight...that is the only thing I can think of. Ideas?
