AmeriCorps engages more than 75,000 Americans in intensive service each year at nonprofits, schools, public agencies, and community and faith-based groups across the country.
Since the program's founding in 1994, almost 1 million AmeriCorps members have contributed more than 1.4 billion hours in service across America while tackling pressing problems and mobilizing millions of volunteers for the organizations they serve.
And with close to 1 million members comes well over 1 billion stories (or somewhere around that). Over the past year we have been compiling these great stories from AmeriCorps alumni and current AmeriCorps members and now you can find some of those (Ameri)stories right here.
View AmeriCorps Stories (AmeriStories)
AmeriCorps programs do more than move communities forward; they serve their members by creating jobs and providing pathways to opportunity for young people entering the workforce. AmeriCorps places thousands of young adults into intensive service positions where they learn valuable work skills, earn money for education, and develop an appreciation for citizenship.
AmeriCorps NCCC
AmeriCorps NCCC members travel the country strengthening communities and developing leadership skills on diverse teams. Members serve full-time for 10 months to address community needs and respond to disasters. AmeriCorps NCCC is comprised of two distinct service tracks: Traditional Corps and FEMA Corps.
AmeriCorps VISTA
AmeriCorps VISTA members are passionate and committed to their mission to bring individuals and communities out of poverty. Members make a year-long, full-time commitment to serve on a specific project at a nonprofit organization or public agency. They focus their efforts to build the organizational, administrative, and financial capacity of organizations that fight illiteracy, improve health services, foster economic development, and otherwise assist low-income communities.
AmeriCorps State and National
AmeriCorps State and National supports a wide range of local service programs that engage thousands of Americans in intensive community service each year. We provide grants to a network of local and national organizations and agencies committed to using national service to address critical community needs in education, public safety, health, and the environment. Each of these organizations and agencies, in turn, uses their AmeriCorps funding to recruit, place, and supervise AmeriCorps members nationwide.

Transportation Policy Becomes the Proverbial Tree Falling in the Forest
Halfway through this afternoon's rally in support of a new federal transportation bill, there came an accidental but telling moment. A group of tourists, attracted by the hundreds of orange flags planted in the National Mall for the rally, walked through the event and whispered questions to attendees about its purpose. Once their curiosity was sated, the group lost interest and ambled away.
As the subscription-only CQ reported today:
Efforts in the Senate to take up a six-month extension of surface transportation law this week appear dead, over objections by a few Republicans to passing it without a full debate, said James M. Inhofe of Oklahoma, the ranking Republican on the Environment and Public Works Committee.
... Inhofe said Tuesday that at least two Republicans objected and that there is not enough floor time to finish a bill this week under normal procedure.
The Senate's lack of progress means that officials working on the nation's transit, roads, bridges, and bike paths will likely have to continue operating under a second short-term extension of the 2005 transportation law, this time lasting until December 18.
Despite the prospects of continuing uncertainty on the local level, House transportation committee chairman Jim Oberstar (D-MN) remained upbeat and focused on a singular goal: getting his colleagues to elevate infrastructure to the top-of-mind status currently occupied by health care (followed by financial regulation and climate change).
"Encircle the White House," Oberstar advised the organizers of today's rally, who parked heavy-duty construction equipment along the sidewalk to symbolize their plea for more transportation spending. "Encircle the Senate!"
The economic stimulus law's $48 billion in transport aid, $8.4 billion of which went to transit, "will dry up" by spring of next year, Oberstar added. He threw in a jab at Obama administration officials who insisted on cutting stimulus transit spending to pay for tax cuts: "I don't know of anybody who's thanked me for their $250 tax credit ... God only knows what's happened to it."
Speaking to reporters after the rally, Oberstar said that extending the 2005 transportation law until the holidays "will give us time between now and Christmas to agree on a six-year bill."
But the Minnesotan's push for taking up his $450 billion proposal by year's end has yet to be met with any enthusiasm from the White House and senior Senate Democrats, who until recently had aligned with Obama aides in favor of an 18-month delay.
And even if the Senate had won passage of its six-month extension, Oberstar said he would have raised concerns about the measure in the House, citing several "serious problems." One example, according to Oberstar: the Senate's plan would have shifted the current grant program for significant projects -- which helps fund some transit work -- back to the states, potentially jeopardizing the money.
For the moment, long-term transportation policy appears to have become the proverbial tree falling in the forest, with few in the capital taking note as the federal bill languishes and climate legislation climbs higher on the agenda.

Live Credit Smart 2013 – A Glimpse at Generations Across the Nation
The Fourth Annual State of Credit report is Experian's comprehensive look at nationwide data to determine how four different generations are managing their debts by analyzing their credit scores, the number of credit cards they have, how much they are spending on those cards and the occurrence of late payments. Additionally, credit scores were examined in Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) to provide the 10 highest and 10 lowest credit scores in each generation across the nation. The study creates an opportunity for consumers to better understand how credit works so they can make informed financial decisions and live credit smart even in the face of national economic challenges.

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
My vote goes for sasuke. Currently i think his pain > obito's pain
At first my money was on Sasuke but now i've been told that he will become good again and side with Naruto. This will completely ruin his avenger ideal. I'm gonna go with Obito because he stuck to his word all this time and even escaped death all because of how he was true in his word and remained loyal. Another thing, Sasuke is imprudent but Obito is intelligent when it comes to making decisions and taking action.
Sasuke...no doubt

Obito doesn't blame anyone for Rins death:
For those who says obito tell me exactly what he did to avenge Rin? He's taking this on the world n I'm pretty damn sure not everybody in the world is responsible for rins death. If he was after vengeance he would go after Kakashi like how sasuke was going for Itachi then after finding out the truth going after konoha. Sasuke reasons make sense now don't get me wrong if someone does this in real life I think that's wrong but I'm not gonna sit here n say I wouldn't do that if something like that happens to me so all I'm saying is his reasons is way better over one girl
Movie troy, and real life history.
Troy fell to Greece over a GIRL! <- For Your Informotion
Obito, is an idiot for believing on what he saw, instead of finding out the facts... <- we find out later on
"Revenge" not avenger
Sasuke, stuck up on his bro since he wanted to be BETTER than he is. Also avenge his clans assassination by his older bro.
"Avenge" not revenge
so yeah sasuke is the avenger when u think it through, tho i voted on obito since in my commentary hes better than sasuke.
NO FLAME WAR, FANBOY WAR! "put on flame retardant jacket"
seems like a lot of ppl dont know what an avenger is....
sasuke is an awesome avenger. he reminds me of madara. does what he wants and challenges all to stop him. too bad he's not as strong and successful at being a badass.
Hard to say.....I think all evil Uchiha's are equally badass! I hate Madara though.
Sasuke isn't a ***** who uses Senju DNA, and wants to put the world in a Genjutsu.
He just wanna kill the fools that lead to his clan destruction. Everyone else is irrelevant.
Obito on the hand, is a loser. He's a low class Uchiha clinging on to someone else power. Props to his fight vs Naruto/Bee/Guy/Kakashi. He used his own power, but now he might pull out the Wood Style.

you know what i think that madara was a beast since he was on par with hashirama. since he really didn't loose. does that mean we will never know who is better?
you know what i think that madara was a beast since he was on par with hashirama. since he really didn't loose. does that mean we will never know who is better?
If you put it that way, yeah. But if you consider Rinnegan as well, then Madara > Hashirama.

My votes on Obito.
Obito is not avenging anything he is trying to change the world.
Sasuke however is trying to avenge not only the death of his brother but the betrayal of his clansmen. So since he is actually avenging people he obviously wins. Now if you said who has more ambition towards what they are trying to obtain now that would be Obito since he took a lot of time to get to his position and has probably planned more and thought longer about things and feels stronger about his goal.

And your'e neither right? because you are the the choice never mentioned, a Sasuke fanboy.
Anyway, I believe Sasuke had more to avenge even before killing Itachi, dont even mention the events that followed Itachi's death.
But that does not make him "more of an avenger"!
This is just a vs thread between fanboys.

Obito is no avenger, thats why this thread has no sense.

You know.....Madara never had a pedophiliac snake man chasing after his body, nor did he have a beloved older brother who betrayed him and killed his own family to protect the Senju's village. Sasuke has EMS at close to 17 years of age. He is much, much stronger than any Uchiha before him.
If Obito was as hate driven as Sasuke he would've killed Kakashi on the spot, but I hope that he probably realised that Kakashi did it because he had to (or seemingly had to, we'll hopefully see next issue instead of having another chapter full of killing, screaming nothingness)
Probably Obito I'd say

Feminist, HuffPo Blogger Naomi Wolf Joining Al Jazeera
Political consultant, feminist, and Huffington Post blogger Naomi Wolf is in talks to join Al Jazeera, the Qatari-owned news network that purchased Al Gore's cable network, Current TV.
Responding to inquiries, Wolf said the talks are "extremely informal and very, very preliminary."
Wolf currently writes for both the Huffington Post and the UK Guardian and has already scaled back her work the British newspaper. Huffington Post has areported that Wolf will be ending her association with the Internet site though no terms were announced.
Naomi Wolf has a long history of feminist activism authoring such books such as The Beauty Myth and Promiscuities but she also has a history of consulting for Democrats such as Al Gore. It was during Gore's 2000 campaign when Wolf famously advised the Democrat nominee to wear "earth tones" in order to appeal to women.
In 2011, Wolf absurdly claimed that arrests of Occupy Wall Street lawbreakers was some sort of conspiracy planned and executed by the federal government and the nation's mayors eager to stamp out freedom of speech.
More recently Wolf compared the makers of the film "Zero Dark Thirty" to Nazi propagandists like Leni Riefenstahl.
Of the possibility of working with Al Jazeera, Wolf said she was thrilled. "As an American who cares about civil liberties, it's good for all of us that the Guardian and Al Jazeera are doing the work they're doing," she said. "It is good for civil society in America."
Curiously, the Muslim world that Al Jazeera reports on and from whence it comes specializes in eliminating civil liberties.
But here is the thing: any American of any political ideology that goes to work for Al Jazeera should be considered a traitor. Al Jazeera is run by enemies to both our country and to the western way of life. Al Jazeera is run by racists, jihadi, terrorists and anyone that joins them should be treated as complicit in that goal.

Memorial Day a time to say 'thanks'
Memorial Day loses its meaning in many ways, as it should never be wished as a "Happy Memorial Day," though someone surely will say that during the weekend.
Memorial Day is about commemoration of sacrifice, the ultimate sacrifice of soldiers and airmen and sailors and the Coast Guard.
It's a remembrance of neighbors and friends and family members who preserved our ability to enjoy the freedom we still have in the United States, despite attacks on the streets by terrorists and pressure abroad to both be the world's leader and not to be so involved in the daily lives of other nations.
A good way to remember what Memorial Day is about is to take the time to attend one of the many services being held throughout the long weekend. Communities have organizers and groups that take the time to make sure everyone recalls the sacrifice. Observances being held today include two parades in Marietta – this morning in the Harmar neighborhood and a march from Muskingum Park to Oak Grove Cemetery – These services honor the dead of generations past and show support to those still displaying extreme courage in defending the nation against its enemies.
As the nation continues to lose members of the generation that fought to earn the nation's greatest victory, in World War II, Memorial Day should be especially poignant.
"In Flanders Fields" will be read at those ceremonies, and its words echo from the World War I generation, now lost to time. The poem, by Canadian Lt. Col. John McCrae, was written May 3, 1915, after the soldier saw a friend die on the field of battle the day before. It summarizes the feelings of the soldier who died, of all soldiers who died. It exhorts the living to take up the quarrel with the foe and keep the faith with those who died in battle.
"To you from failing hands, we throw the torch; be yours to hold it high."
The words should touch the very American part of your soul, and push you to continue to keep honor and memory of these brave men and women in your hearts, your thoughts and prayers, and never to give up the cause, which would leave their deaths as mere battlefield statistics.
Say thank you to the living veterans for their service, to active service personnel for continuing the fight, and thus hold the fallen's torch high.

I never realized it until I came here, but it seems I have OALD. Since the beginning my baby has been gassy, spit up a lot, and frequently fusses at the breast.
The poor thing learned to compensate by taking a shallower latch and sometimes clamping down to slow the flow, so in the beginning I was in excruciating pain.
His latch has improved and my nipples stopped hurting after 6 weeks or so (I've been nursing for 13 weeks) but it still doesn't look like a "textbook" latch. His top lip is never flanged, it's always tucked in under his gum.
Is it too late to "correct" his latch? If it doesn't hurt, does that mean it's not a problem, or is it just that my nipples have toughened up?

Fortunately, there is a solution. The use of large, bear-proof storage containers, or "bear boxes" is a proven method to prevent bears from becoming conditioned to human foods. However, less than 25% of the campsites in roadside campgrounds — the most likely place for a Yellowstone bear to obtain food — currently have bear boxes for safe food storage.
You can help make the Park safer for visitors and bears! Now, the Yellowstone Park Foundation is offering individuals and groups a unique opportunity to Sponsor a Bear Box.
Gifts of any amount toward this important effort are greatly needed and sincerely appreciated. When you make any size contribution toward the purchase of a bear box, you will receive all the great benefits of being a Friend of Yellowstone. Plus, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you are playing a direct role in protecting Yellowstone's magnificent bears.
For each $1,500 in contributions, Yellowstone will install a bear box in a Park campground. Thanks to generous donations, we have already raised enough funds for the Park to purchase more than 150 boxes, and the Park needs more than 1,000 to eventually cover all of the roadside campsites.
With your $1,500 Bear Box Sponsorship, you will receive:

I've been glued to the coverage of the Olympics for the past few days. (I mean seriously, how can anyone NOT get excited watching Michael Phelps crush his competition every single time?! The man is unbelievable.)
Watching the Olympics makes the world seem very small.
Athletes from every corner of the globe — from every race, culture and background — come together to compete, and suddenly the dividing lines between Islam and Christianity, Communism and Democracy, and wealth and poverty fade. The political agendas take a back seat. The economic disputes get put on the back burner. The world focuses together on this great sporting competition and where many differing value systems once existed, now exists one common set of values: competition, endurance, and sportsmanship.
For a few weeks it feels like we are one big family.
Being a part of Compassion gives you a similar feeling, doesn't it? We are a family. We are from all different walks of life, but we are a family. We celebrate together. We pray together. We mourn together. When a tragedy strikes the country where your sponsored child lives, it's not just something you read about on the news. It's suddenly a personal tragedy. When you give to one of our funds, you aren't just giving to a random charity, you're supporting your family.
I love being a part of this family. I hope you do too. I believe nothing pleases God more than seeing us love one another. He is a relational God and He has built that into each of us.
Someday soon we'll all get to meet at the family reunion. I wonder if that will be anything like the Opening Ceremonies?

The Phils have extended Ruben Amaro, Jr.'s Contract.
Earlier today, the Phils have announced that they have extended General Manager Ruben Amaro, Jr.'s contract. Amaro has signed a four-year extension with the Phils a day after the team had signed manager Charlie Manuel to a two-year extension of his contract. This means that Amaro will be the Phils' General Manager through 2015, helping to keep things stable at the top for the next few years.
Here's to hoping that he'll be making some more deals that'll help the team during that time. Time to really start earning, Ruben.
No Comments
Good for him.
He has kept the bulk of a very competitve team together while adding some pitching toold that woiuld be the envy of most teams. As is usually the course for the Phillies, a few Spring bumps and bruises have some worried, but Amaro's probably has a few alternatives cooking on the back burners in case of extended unpleasant results.
That is what good GM's do, they plan for the worse, then celebrate the best. Finding that middle ground is the hardest, but rewarding someone for keeping their team at the top in talent and overall record….this contract was almost a sure thing.
Rays Renegade
Couldn't agree more, and I could not put it better myself.
He is certainly doing the best he can, and he has, so far, done a lot of good things for the Phils. I just hope he can keep it up.

The beautifully restored Victorian mansion at 28 S. Loomis Street holds a treasure trove of history—and represents a gift of the heart to North Central College by former owners Bartley and Maricela '99 Madden. Their foresight to preserve the historic home by giving it to the College will long be remembered as an example of extraordinary generosity.
"We spent nine years restoring the home and we felt it would be best in the College's hands—and the College would get the benefit of using the house," explains Bartley Madden.
"After we put so much into it, we felt that giving to the College was coming full circle," adds Maricela Madden, a fine arts major who labored over the details of the restoration, finding appropriate wallpaper patterns, paint colors, carpeting and authentic furnishings. The plumbing, wiring, roof, heating and air conditioning were updated to ensure long-term structural integrity. The carriage house in the rear was completely rebuilt and served as Maricela's art studio, while the elaborate landscape pillars and gardens mimic those surrounding other grand Victorian mansions.
The couple extensively researched the home, learning about its connection to North Central as home of A.A. Smith, the College's first president. "During the 1880s, the home was a social center in Naperville," says Maricela. "The Smiths hosted students, professors and other visitors, and the home was always filled with music."
So returning the home to its perfectly restored state made sense to the couple, who wanted its history preserved forever. "Once we decided to give the house to the College, we felt great about it," says Bartley. "It was perfect for us and the College, but also the community."
The couple also decided to make a substantial gift in support of the College's new fine arts facilities, which resulted in naming the black box theater the Bartley and Maricela Madden Theatre in the Wentz Concert Hall and Fine Arts Center.
Bartley Madden retired as a managing director of Credit Suisse in 2003 and has since pursued research, writing and speaking on topics related to Federal Drug Administration (FDA) reform and access to late-stage experimental drugs. He's published articles and appeared at conferences to discuss changes in FDA regulations. He also maintains a website called www.LearningWhatWorks.com.
"I've always wanted to be an academic, and I've long been interested in the deeper issues of inquiry and reliable knowledge," Bartley Madden says. "I spent my business career in stock market research and valuation of companies and now I'm researching public policy issues."
Those issues receive the same thorough attention and research that the couple directed toward historic preservation and philanthropy, bettering their neighborhood, community and North Central College for generations to come.

To all of the ladies who have responded to my posts and also to the ones that I see responding to other posts...
You are all so very encouraging!! While you all know (and I know too!) that breastfeeding is best, you don't critisize people who are either breastfeeding and supplementing with formula or those who are formula feeding only... I have only seen loving words and encouragment to people who are struggling with their new little ones and who only want to do what is best for their babies.
I breastfeed during the day and supplement with formula at night and have gotten some heavy critisism from "friends" who think that the only good way is their way. Everything I have gotten from here has been gentle and kind and not overly opinionated and for the most part I've noticed the same for other posts.
I believe that each mom knows what is best for her own child and herself...everyone wants to do what is good for their child, but we have to do what is good for us as well, because an unhappy and stressed mom doesn't make for a happy baby, and we should all enjoy this time as much as we can!!
Sorry to ramble, but I really am very impressed with the ladies here.
Thank you for making me feel welcome and for letting me know that I am doing a good job no matter what. I need to hear that every so often.

It's been a good few months since the release of M.I.A.'s ultra controversial but ultimately rewarding video for single Born Free. Her new album ///Y/ has just been released and should prove M.I.A. to be an artist of indelible musical substance as well as a fighter of political emancipation.
In response to her new album, the controversy surrounding the Romain Gavras-directed video, media have suitably followed in Pied Piper fashion. Everyone from the New York Times to Dazed & Confused have featured M.I.A. heavily.
I'm eager to join the M.I.A. loving' fanfare and say that her ///Y/ could potentially be my album of the year. I particularly like her statement in one of the many interview videos that she has done of late when she says that she doesn't want to be a Bono-like figure when giving help to causes as some sort of act of philanthropy out of middle class guilt – she's simply reacting to things she has personally experienced and with that comes visceral and ultimately moving music.
Photographer Ryan McGinley has perfectly captured M.I.A.'s spirit in these images that accompanied the New York Times article – a pity that the article then spiralled into a "He said, She Said" argument between interviewer and her subject…
I also love this short trailer that Dazed & Confused produced for their current June issue which features M.I.A. on the cover – the styling is spot on in the way the clothes move on shoot.

It's been fun, but I am done.
April 13, 2011
After thinking about it for quite a while, I've decided that this blog has run its course. Time to put 'er down. I have a lot of little reasons for this decision, but the big one is that my heart just isn't in it anymore. Aside from my recent little piece about my almost-accident, I haven't written anything heart-felt in a long time. And if I'm not up to doing that, I don't see the point of continuing this project.
Which is not to say that this project hasn't been fun or worthwhile. It's been both. And I've managed to sustain this blog for nearly six years—an eternity in this ephemeral medium. And I've made many real friends on line, some (but not all) of whom I've met in person. I am grateful for those friendships, and I hope to sustain them by following and responding to my friends' on-line stuff. But as for my own little corner in the blogosphere, well, it's just time for me to move on.
I have been doing the Twitter thing lately. So if you feel inclined, please follow me there @minorwisdom. I promise to do that as long as I feel like it. (In Louisiana, we call that a potestative condition.)

Recovering from a stroke can be a lifelong process that will impact both stroke survivors and their loved ones.
For those who suffer a stroke, the type of recovery and its length are determined by the location and severity of the stroke, the National Stroke Association says.
According to the National Stroke Association, more than seven million people in the U.S. have survived strokes. For the survivors, most make progress in their recovery from immediately after the stroke all the way through decades after the stroke.
According to the National Stroke Association: 10 percent of stroke survivors make an almost immediate recovery; 25 percent have minor impairments; 40 percent have moderate to severe impairments and may need special care; 10 percent will need long-term care in a facility.
Survivors will make physical, mental and emotional progress.
To make progress, stroke survivors will often need mental and physical help. Mental health specialists can help survivors cope with their changing lifestyle and possible limitations. Survivors will also go through rehabilitation to try to recover physically from any lasting effects the stroke may have had.
Rehabilitation for some patients will begin while they are still in the hospital recovering from the stroke. Their rehabilitation will continue for weeks, months and even years afterwards. Rehabilitation can be conducted in the following forms, according to the National Stroke Association: in the hospital, at a subacute care unit, at a rehabilitation hospital, through home therapy, at home with outpatient therapy, and at a long-term care facility.
The goal of rehabilitation therapy is to help the survivor regain as much function as possible. Rehabilitation can help the survivor learn to perform daily tasks and prepare them to be as independent as possible. Depending on the severity of the stroke, some skills like talking, walking and eating may need to be relearned.
Family and friends of stroke survivors also need to go through some stages of recovery. A stroke can alter an entire family's lifestyle, so people who live with and care for stroke survivors will need to learn to cope with their loved one's prognosis and recovery and make adjustments at home.

Interactive Travel Map | Text the SecretarySecretary Clinton's op-ed, "Encourage Pakistan As It Confronts Extremism," appeared on the front page of this morning's Times of India.
At a time when headlines are often depressing, the United States' growing relationship with India is welcome good news. Recent elections in both countries have provided our new governments with an opportunity to broaden our partnership and take on the world's most pressing challenges.
President Obama and I are personally committed to this task, and I am working to advance this goal during my visit to New Delhi and Mumbai this week. Our two countries are defined by their demography, their democracy, and their diversity. Together, they are home to almost one out of every four human beings on the planet.
Our people share common interests, common values, and a common stake in the 21st century. We and the rest of the world have a lot to gain from our enhanced cooperation. India's 6% growth rate is a bright spot amid the global economic downturn, and bilateral trade and investment flows between our nations have doubled in the last five years.
Some Americans fear that greater partnership with India will mean lost jobs or falling wages in the United States. But if we manage our relationship well, both sides can benefit from India's economic progress. The 300 million members of India's burgeoning middle class present a vast new market and opportunity. Our countries should work together to open that market and spread the benefits of sustainable prosperity.
We have a shared asset in this task. Millions of Indian-Americans are active throughout every sector of our society. And there are 90,000 Indian students in the United States. In medicine, finance, engineering, and education, these unofficial envoys can serve as a conduit for future collaboration.
But for the United States, India's ascent is more than an economic phenomenon. Our nations should also work together to address common challenges including security, non-proliferation, and climate change. Our countries have experienced searing terrorist attacks. We both seek a more secure world for our citizens. We should intensify our defense and law enforcement cooperation to that end. And we should encourage Pakistan as that nation confronts the challenge of violent extremism.
Until recently, concerns about nuclear proliferation were a dominant theme in our relationship. The US-India civil nuclear agreement, a landmark accord completed last year by the Bush Administration with support from President Obama, Vice President Biden, and myself, allows us to transform non-proliferation from a point of contention into an area of cooperation. The agreement entails important benefits and responsibilities for both sides. President Obama has joined with generations of Indian leaders in calling for a nuclear free world. We are looking to New Delhi to work with us in realizing this vision. India recently signed an important agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency, condemned North Korea's nuclear test, and became only the third state to completely destroy its chemical weapons stockpile. We hope to build on this progress and work together to strengthen the global non-proliferation regime.
Climate change is another area where India can be a vital partner. We want India's economy and people to prosper. At the same time, we can look for opportunities to help India achieve these goals while avoiding an old development model based on dirty fuels and outdated technology. Better environmental practices can and must complement economic growth. The United States and India share an interest in greening our economies. This is not only an ecological imperative, it is also an economic and strategic opportunity. Our countries and the world will gain if we can pool our expertise to increase cooperation on energy efficiency and improve the management of our forests and water. We should harness the talents of our engineers and entrepreneurs to speed the transition to a low-carbon economy, accelerate the deployment of clean technologies, and help bridge India's energy deficit. It is vital for our two countries to work together to find common ground this December in Copenhagen as we seek a strong international agreement to combat the challenge of climate change.
The tasks ahead won't be easy and our two nations won't always agree. But India's involvement will be crucial in addressing the range of challenges on the world's agenda. When President Truman announced the United States' decision to recognize India's independence in 1947, he acknowledged the great trials facing what was then a fragile country. But he also expressed his confidence that India would take its place at the forefront of the nations of the world and find the United States to be a constant friend. Today, President Obama and I believe we have the chance to forge a partnership worthy of that promise. I hope a new era of stronger cooperation between India and the United States will be one of the signature accomplishments of our new governments. The world has a lot riding on our cooperation.

Rock on, Hillary!
I never read what you write or hear what you say without being impressed by the breadth of your knowledge and your ability to organize and state that information in a way that makes sense to everybody. I'd rather be watching you say this as a speech on a video because you're so pretty to watch and pleasant to listen to, but your words, how ever you decide to present them, never fail in their wisdom.
You totally rock!

I hear that American companies are going to get contracts for building and maintaining two nuclear plants in India. In something that stinks of the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment, please don't help these corporate mercenaries make money off of innocent and poor victims again.
I'd request that the State Department please, please make sure that before this nuclear deal goes through, Union Carbide is properly punished for the utter inhuman disaster they created during the Bhopal Gas Tragedy and that finally, twenty years on at least, the relatives and children of victims gassed in their sleep get justice.

Just from the few comments I saw on her op-ed, the Indian people regard the Pakistani government and extremists as one and the same, much as we do the Taliban and al-quaida.
The biggest task is for the Pakistani government to do all it can to prove the thinking wrong.
That's not something we can do for them.
If they want moral support from India in their fight against extremism, they'll have to earn it.
With all that's transpired, elections in both nations, the Swat valley situation, Mumbai and a host of other issues, getting to the point where these two nations can sit down at the table and constructively discuss their main point of contention between then, Kashmir, will take some time and confidence building prior , so the negotiations stand a chance of success.
I have long felt that a permanent solution to this problem looks something like this:
Both nations abandon any thought of unilateral control over Kashmir, that they resolve to co-administrate the area as a designated co-national park, those born and raised there to be given dual citizenship in both countries, and revenue (taxes etc.) generated be divided equally by thirds, a third going to each nation and a third to local municipalities.
A co-national park service open to all who seek such employment regardless of nationality, cultural background, or religious preference.
Joint development and infrastructure projects can help build on this common sense approach to build trust among each other and the local population.
I do not believe the status quo serves anyone's long term interests.
They either learn how to share what they have in common, as the "common wealth", celebrate the diversity of their cultural heritages, or lose it forever if they choose to fight over it again.
Nuclear war is not an option.

U.S. and Indian relations are very important GeoPolitically and especially in regards to Climate change issues.
At Harvard as I told Secretary of the U.S. Treasury Department in Spring 2007, Hank Paulson at HBS...My desire has been that Kyoto II could be a nice revision including Indian & Chinese good efforts to help clean and maintain our beautiful World home.

Was destroying America's economy part of the "world's agenda" mentioned in the article?
It's not a "fear" that sending U.S. jobs to India and China has hurt America, it's a reality.
The plan of gradually lowering of American living standards in order to boost living standards in poorer countries by a transfer of jobs has resulted in near-total economic collapse in America and a job loss approaching one-half million jobs per month.
This deliberate plan may or may not have started with good intentions but it has ended in disaster that obviously cannot be adequately "managed". It was a mistake.
Millions of Americans have lost their homes, their jobs, their families, all because of this ongoing mistake. The loss of wealth in America has been horrible, the middle class all but destroyed, and here we read on about how wonderful it has been!
Is this how you are "managing the relationship" - 20 U.S. States have over 15% unemployment; California and many other states are bankrupt, and the job drain continues unabated as factories close for loss of sales, and the American malaise spreads across the world?
How could any American be more out of touch with their own country than to write an article praising the current disaster and suggesting that more of the same is beneficial "if we manage our relationship well"?
Helping the world community has been an unmitigated disaster for America. Have you seen the conditions in towns and cities across America -- the boarded up homes, the vacant stores, the abandoned factory buildings? How has our relationship with India helped that?

Sheriff's Deputies Charge Monticello Man with Bank Robbery
February 25, 2012 —
On February 17, 2012 at approximately 10:00 AM, The Sullivan County Sheriff's Office responded to a report of a robbery at the Eldred branch of the First National Bank of Jeffersonville.
A white male reportedly entered the bank and passed a note to the teller which stated that he had a gun. No weapon was displayed. The man fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of cash. Sheriff's detectives followed numerous leads over the next week which led to a suspect being taken into custody on Friday February 24, 2012. John W. Armbruster, 52, was arrested without incident at about 2:00 PM in the parking lot of the Stewart's Shop at the corner of High Street and Pleasant Avenue in the Village of Monticello.
Detectives then executed a search warrant on Armbruster's vehicle and his room at the Hertitage Inn on Broadway in Monticello. Armbruster was charged with Robbery in the 3rd degree and Grand Larceny in the 4th degree, both felonies. The suspect was arraigned before Town of Highland Judge Anthony LaRuffa and remanded to the Sullivan County Jail in lieu of $80,000 bail. Sheriff Mike Schiff thanked the District Attorney's Office, State Police, and Town of Highland Constables for their assistance in the investigation.

CNBC this week features a story highlighting manufacturing challenges in the United States. "Solving Manufacturers' Jobs Dilemma" focuses on manufacturing jobs left open, despite high numbers of unemployed workers, because managers can't find workers with the skills needed to fill the open jobs—the so-called "skills gap."
Experts debate about the actual number of open jobs due to the skills gap. In 2012, Boston Consulting Group reported there were 80,000 available manufacturing jobs unable to be filled because of lack of candidate training. Yet, a 2011 study by Deloitte and the Manufacturing Institute asserts there could be as many as 600,000 of these open jobs.
"Building a skilled workforce after decades of erosion in an industry is not easy," CNBC reports. "From 1960 through 2012, the number of Americans working in the textile and apparel industries dropped 83 percent to 166,000 from 1.2 million, according to the Manufacturing Institute."
The CNBC article highlights The Makers Coalition, a Minnesota partnership between the Dunwoody College of Technology and area manufacturers. The partnership's goal is to teach people industrial sewing skills and promote the trade. Once unemployed or underemployed, the students find well-paying jobs with room for advancement.
While The Makers Coalition matches workers with sewing jobs, the skills gap exists across multiple industries and employment levels within manufacturing. Despite this variety, the solution across the board involves education. Therefore, I was pleased this week to see a software blog from Software Advice that features the story "3 Supply Chain Certifications that Will Land You a Job." The APICS Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP) features prominently.
The post quotes Monty Boyle, CPIM, CIRM, CSCP, a common process deployment specialist for BP and a consultant. The CSCP "teaches you to look at the supply chain from a broad perspective; to view the relations between the areas of planning, sourcing, manufacturing, and delivering and see how the overall supply chain integrates."

Emotions will run high in Stanford Graduate School of Business' long-running "Touchy Feely" course. And professors at the University of California at Berkeley's Haas School of Business will try to teach students to rein in their type-A personalities, lest they upset fellow classmates.It's all part of a continuing push by business schools to teach "soft skills"—such as accepting feedback with grace and speaking respectfully to subordinates—that companies say are most important in molding future business leaders.
Although business schools have traditionally excelled at teaching "hard skills" like finance and accounting, those skills become less … Read more »

A hundred years ago, there were no cell phones or computers. How did people communicate over long distances? They used flashes of light, dots, dashes, and flags.What do we have today that replaces how people once communicated?
These are the original requirements written in 1911.Think about how times have changed as you complete the requirements a Scout your age would have done a hundred years ago.
Whether a signaling device is electronic or not, in its simplist state it works by showing "on" or "off." Today, we use computers for most of our communications. At its most basic level, a computer is just a collection of switches that turn on and off very rapidly.
Originally created for Samuel F.B. Morse's electric telegraph in the early 1840s, Morse code was also extensively used for early radio communication beginning in the 1890s. In the early part of the 20th century, the majority of high-speed international communication was conducted in Morse code, using telegraph lines, undersea cables, and radio circuits. The Titanic used Morse code on a simple wireless to plea for help.

|The Buddha
Over 2,500 years ago, a man who had been searching for the truth for many, many lifetimes came to a quiet place in northern India and sat down under a tree. He continued to sit under the tree, with immense resolve, and vowed not to get up until he had found the truth.
Buddha Shakyamuni, the Indian prince Gautama Siddhartha, attained enlightenment in the sixth century BCE. He taught the spiritual path known today as Buddhism.

My 17 month old hasn't nursed in 7 days, I think we're done. It was completely mutual, which I am happiest about. She's been at one nursing session a day for about a good three months, so my question is what can I expect? Am I "out of the woods" as far as mastitis and engorgment go? Are there any weird surprises to expect? My breasts feel fine, soft and normal. I know it can take months for them to be "empty", and I'm ok with that. So, any experience from those who have weaned would be great. Thanks.
P.S 17 months= not too shabby

"We are always looking for ways to keep our environment healthy for ourselves and our four legged clients. Of everything we do, signing up for green power one of the easiest." Angela Lenz, Owner Tails-A-WaggingBellingham, Washington
When you sign up for Green Power, Puget Sound Energy buys electricity from independent clean-energy producers right here in our region. These businesses generate electricity from wind, sun, biogas and other renewable sources.
Green Power adds this electricity to the grid, which offsets some or all of the conventional power you use each month. You decide on the amount: $4 per month will offset one-quarter of the electricity it takes to run an average home; $12 will offset 100 percent of the average home's use.
Your Green Power participation helps our regional economy as well as our environment. The energy producers that Green Power supports are creating jobs and establishing the Pacific Northwest as a leader in the $200 billion global green-energy sector. And since PSE does not make a profit from the Green Power program, you can be sure that every dollar you contribute is making a difference.
Meet the power generators who are helping us lead the way in climate protection.
"We're pleased and excited to be participating...Our northwest office felt strongly that participation in the PSE Green Power Program was an important way to communicate commitment to the environment. Also, it represents a unique way for our office to stand-out within the company and marketplace in terms of addressing the need to adopt sustainable practices...Yes, there is a premium, but we're beyond using expense as an excuse to avoid responsibility. As an environmental engineering firm, our clients understand this. As a PSE customer, we're happy to be part of a network of firms that are willing to take on a new challenge." —Scott Lester, SCS Engineers
"We have many customers who shop with us because we offer many eco-friendly flooring products. When eco-friendly products are brought up it is a natural fit to mention that we are a proud user and supporter of Green Power. This has proven educational for many of our customers, who didn't know Green Power was available. We proudly display our Green Power Participant sticker on our door, and our Green Power Environmental Leader Certificate (right next to our business license!) where everyone can see it. We were proud to be one of the first 100% Green Power partners in our area, and really glad that PSE offers this to its commercial and residential customers."—Tammi Fleming, Simple Floors
