Pumpkin Pie with RumDark molasses and rum put this pumpkin pie a cut above the rest. Nonfat evaporated milk, which stands in for heavy cream, does a great job of cutting the fat in the filling. Add to that our butter-canola crust and you've dropped three-quarters of the fat and more than half the calories found in most similar pies. Serves: 8Preparation time: 30 minutesCook time: 1 hour 10 minutesIngredientsFor the crust:3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 cup whole-wheat flour 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon butter 3 tablespoons canola oil 1-2 tablespoons ice waterFor the filling:2 large eggs 1 15- or 16-ounce can plain pumpkin puree 1 12-ounce can nonfat evaporated milk 1/4 cup dark molasses 3 tablespoons dark rum, or 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground ginger 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon salt Preparation To prepare crust: 1. Stir all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, swirling the pan, until butter turns a nutty brown, 30 seconds to 4 minutes, depending on your stove. Pour into a small bowl and let cool. Stir in oil. Slowly stir the butter-oil mixture into the flour mixture with a fork until the mixture is crumbly. Gradually stir in enough ice water so the dough holds together. Press the dough into a flattened disk. 2. Place two overlapping lengths of plastic wrap on a work surface. Set the dough in the center and cover with two more sheets of plastic wrap. Roll the dough into a 13-inch circle. Remove the top sheets and invert the dough into a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan. Remove the remaining wrap. Fold the edges under at the rim and crimp. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate while you prepare the filling. To prepare filling & bake pie: 1. Position rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 350°F. Lightly whisk eggs in a medium bowl. Add pumpkin, evaporated milk, molasses and rum (or vanilla). Combine brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt in a small bowl. Rub through a sieve into the pumpkin mixture and whisk until incorporated. 2. Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Bake the pie until the filling has set and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, 40-50 minutes; cover the edges with foil if they are browning too quickly. Cool on a wire rack.Enjoy!

Abrams, M(eyer) H(oward)
M(eyer) H(oward) Abrams 1912–
American critic and editor.
Although Abrams has written many scholarly essays and edited several texts of literary criticism, his reputation as a critic rests on his two books on the English Romantic movement, The Mirror and the Lamp and Natural Supernaturalism. In the former, Abrams elaborated on the images of "the mirror" as a metaphor for the classical view that art must imitate reality and "the lamp" as a metaphor for the Romantic belief that artists should express personal perceptions through their creations. Using these symbols, Abrams studied Romantic critical theory and traced its break from the tradition of mimesis.
In Natural Supernaturalism Abrams identified Christian and biblical patterns in Romantic literature and effectively outlined his theory of the Romantic method of secularizing religious concepts. In addition, Abrams deemed the Romantic period "a decisive turn in Western thought" and followed its influence on twentieth-century literature.
(See also Contemporary Authors, Vols. 57-60.)
Thomas M. Raysor
The title of Mr. Abrams' book [The Mirror and the Lamp] is not fanciful external ornament like those with which scholars sometimes mistakenly attempt to adorn a serious theoretical or historical work, but an indication of a characteristic purpose, to consider the extent to which metaphorical thinking inevitably enters into the theory of poetry, as well as into poetry itself, and indeed into most human thought. The mirror is the inadequate metaphor continually used as the symbol of arts which regard their function as an imitation or reflection of reality; and the lamp is an opposed metaphor occasionally used by romantic theorists for the light from the artist's own mind, which not only illuminates but somehow modifies the objects of perception. In brief, then, the subject of the book is the contrast of neoclassic with romantic literary theory, considered not only logically but in the logical implications of antithetical systems of metaphors.
This method of analysis is very fruitful as Abrams uses it, as he frequently must because of the nature of his materials. We find, for instance, an analysis of the objects of imitation in imitative art which might convince any fanatical expressionist theorist of modern painting that representationists have never, or almost never, been so naïve as to put forward a photographic theory of painting, in spite of the deceptive implications of the mirror metaphor, which seems to do just that. We find an even fuller analysis of the metaphorical thinking in an expressive metaphor of poetry like Wordsworth's "spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings" or in Coleridge's biological metaphor of organic unity, which Abrams treats more clearly than anyone else because he sees that it is basically metaphorical, and is therefore able to bring out its logical implications of unconscious determinism. Coleridge himself saw these implications, Abrams points out, though his followers have not always done so, and attempted to avoid them by his favorite polar logic of the reconciliation through the imagination of such opposites as art and nature, the conscious and the unconscious, judgment and emotion. But he may not have succeeded in completing the logical...

Charles Rosen
M. H. Abrams, whose Mirror and the Lamp is one of the most influential books on the early nineteenth century, is a master of the themes of Romanticism. It is doubtful if anyone has surpassed, or that many have equaled, the range and depth of his reading. His point of departure in Natural Supernaturalism is Wordsworth's scheme for the great unfinished poem called The Recluse, a poem which was to crown the poet's work and to which the rest of his verse was to stand as chapels to the main body of a cathedral.
From the "Prospectus" Wordsworth wrote for The Recluse, Abrams isolates the concept of the spiritual resurrection of mankind by the marriage of nature to the mind of man. For Wordsworth, mind or spirit here has become largely secular: God appears—if at all—only as within man's mind, and Abrams recalls a rich seventeenth-century tradition that resists any attempt to place God outside ourselves…. The wedding of man and nature is seen by Abrams as achieving its full meaning as a manifestation of the millennium, a vision of the apocalypse secularized into revolution, but he characterizes this union with nature as a consolation and a substitute for the shattered revolutionary dream.
From here, Abrams is concerned chiefly with Romantic metaphors of alienation—of man from nature, of man from himself. The marriage of nature to the mind of man is a metaphor for the overcoming of this inner and outer division. The most persistent metaphor Abrams finds is that of the "circuitous journey," the vision of a regained paradise, a return through alienation to an original state of "organic" unity, now made transcendent by incorporating and resolving the contradictory forces of the journey itself. The circle is therefore generally a spiral, a return to the same point on a higher level. As the mature mind, in Wordsworth, returns to the child's unconscious acceptance of the world, now transformed by experience, so Hegel's spirit in reaching absolute consciousness attains the static condition, the complete repose of pure, undifferentiated, unalienated being. The juxtaposition of Hegel's Phenomenology of Mind with Wordsworth's Prelude is perhaps the most brilliant detail of Abrams's book. (p. 12)
Are the patterns of Romantic thought, as Abrams believes, theological or even religious?…
[Abrams] has precedent for his view from the Romantics themselves. Wordsworth, for example, spoke easily of "such religious feelings as cannot but exist in the minds of those who affect atheism." This generous view of the meaning of "religious" is found often enough today, if only because the more precise and rigorous sense has come to seem unbearable to so many. But the significance of the early Romantics' use of religion can only be assessed if we measure it against each poet's relation to religion and morality proper—organized, established, or at least traditional. (p. 13)
Most of the early Romantics came from conservative, Protestant, Pietistic families, from which they derived much of their language and imagery and their views of the world. Their magnification of the purely inward, personal elements in Pietism was turned not only against the "atheistic" Enlightenment—they were all deeply influenced by Hume and Voltaire—but against their own background as well. Their early reading in seventeenth-century mystics like Jakob Boehme provided them with ammunition in this battle on two fronts. The mystical philosophy of the seventeenth century had often been conceived as an attack on organized religion and even as part of a program of social and economic reform…. Abrams is right to maintain that the Romantic poets' need of a theological vocabulary was independent of their religious creed or lack of one, but the meaning of that vocabulary cannot be understood except through its relation to organized religion and society….
[Abrams] appears to claim for his theological forms and images a fundamental and inalterable meaning—a significance which remains constant even when they are reformulated in radically different contexts. What the Romantics discovered, however, was the possibility of stripping forms of their original significance and of giving them a new sense almost diametrically opposed to the original…. (p. 14)
What they looked for was the tension between the new meaning and the inevitable residue of the old. This was the tension that enabled the Romantics to carry out their program of reconceiving art and literature as a dynamic and...

Wayne C. Booth
When M. H. Abrams published a defense, in 1972, of "theorizing about the arts" ["What's the Use of Theorizing about the Arts?"], some of his critics accused him of falling into subjectivism. He had made his case so forcefully against "the confrontation model of aesthetic criticism" and had so effectively argued against "simplified" and "invariable" models of the art work and of "the function of criticism" that some readers thought he had thrown overboard the very possibility of a rational criticism tested by objective criteria.
In his reply to these critics ["A Note on Wittgenstein and Literary Criticism," published in the journal English Literary History], Abrams concentrates almost...

M. H. Abrams
Wayne Booth is quite right [see excerpt above]: for all my interest in the methods of literary criticism, I say nothing about method in my two historical books, The Mirror and the Lamp and Natural Supernaturalism. The reason for my silence on this issue is simple: these books were not written with any method in mind. Instead they were conceived, researched, worked out, put together, pulled apart, and put back together, not according to a theory of valid procedures in such under-takings, but by intuition. I relied, that is, on my sense of rightness and wrongness, of doubt and assurance, of deficiencies and superfluities, of what is appropriate and what is inappropriate. (p. 176)

A frank assessment of the lay of the land, and a genuine hope:
While we Americans are not quite as animated in our division as we were 150 years ago – at least we're not marching armies at each other or regularly burning down whole swaths of each other's towns and farmsteads – it's hard to argue that our country is not more than usually mired in malcontent and distrust.
Too many of us use hyphens like hatchets, hacking ourselves and each other into ever-smaller and ever-more-defensive groups.
We no longer discuss policy or philosophy civilly or rationally.
We can't have an honest conversation about morality – or even mathematics.
We default, after our arguments fail to score points, to calling the other side hate-filled, evil, mean-spirited and stupid.
Too often, each side has given up on attracting folks from the other side with either logic or love and has entrenched itself simply to outlast the other side, which, we reason, will surely die someday.
Those divisions run from the coffee shop and the bus stop to the very top of government.
For those of us old enough to remember Watergate firsthand, it's sad – no, it's downright unnerving – to see another presidency dealing with so much scandal at once.
We'll save for another day the arguments over how much President Barack Obama has been or hasn't been involved in creating the multiple embarrassments his administration faces currently. We'll debate another time how serious those contentions are, individually or collectively.
It's safe to say, though, that when even late-night comedians and some left-leaning journalists begin to make the president a target, the White House is not a fun place to work right now.
It's not fun to watch, either.
Even for those who disagree with most of Obama's positions, who see his promise to "fundamentally transform" America as a threat to their grandchildren and are eager for his departure from office, it's disconcerting to see the concerns even formerly supportive pundits are raising.
In all the concerns that we might be facing another Watergate, one thought in particular should give Christians great comfort – and great motivation to pray for our nation's leadership.
But for Watergate, we might never have had "Born Again," "The Sky is Not Falling" or "How Now Shall We Live?".
But for Watergate, we might never have had Prison Fellowship, which humanizes both prisoners and their children as probably no movement has done in lifetimes.
But for Watergate, we might never have seen a convicted felon transformed into a leading Christian thinker.
Pray that the current discord, in whatever direction or degree it moves, yields another Chuck Colson.

The Budget
Oral Question Period
February 4th, 1994 / 11:55 a.m.
Bob Mills Red Deer, AB
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Finance.
Earlier this week the minister stated that virtually everybody at the pre-budget consultation conferences supported augmenting the revenue side.
Mr. Jason Kenney, national director of Canadian Taxpayers Federation and a great many other people have advised me that as participants at the Calgary conference, every workshop called for no increase in taxation. How does the minister explain this discrepancy?
The Budget
Oral Question Period
11:55 a.m.
Paul Martin Minister of Finance and Minister responsible for the Federal Office of Regional Development -Quebec
Mr. Speaker, as I expressed very clearly at the workshops in Calgary and at the other three as well there are differences of opinion as is natural. My statement was that at virtually every conference there was tremendous support for building equity into the tax system.
If we take a look at the member's question, I would say that not only virtually every member at those conferences but virtually every Canadian would like to see the government augment its revenues. Certainly we do on this side of the House. We recognize the best way for that to happen is to get the economy going and Canadians back to work. That is why we were elected.
Oral Question Period
Don Boudria Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the minister of agriculture concerning a cattle disease known as BSE.
In the 1980s some 60 animals were imported into Canada from the United Kingdom and one of these animals died of BSE. There is some concern that this disease is still in the country. Will the minister now share with the House what his plans are in regard to this disease?
Oral Question Period
Ralph Goodale Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food
Mr. Speaker, I thank the hon. member for the question about a very serious issue in the Canadian cattle industry.
Canada's first case of BSE was diagnosed in December of last year in Alberta. The cow was originally imported from the United Kingdom in 1987. Continued access for Canadian cattle and products to international markets depends very heavily upon my department's commitment to undertake very stringent control measures with respect to BSE.
The department is following a procedure that will ensure there will be no animals remaining in Canada that could have had any contact with any source of BSE infection. That position is strongly supported by every major livestock organization in the country as well as by veterinarian professionals, trading officials and our international trading partners.
Oral Question Period
Audrey McLaughlin Yukon, YT
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Deputy Prime Minister.
Once again we see the unemployment rates today have increased. In the 100 days the government has been in power we have seen two major promises made in the red book broken: first, the implementation of the North American free trade deal and, second, cruise missile testing.
On behalf of those 1.4 million Canadians without jobs, I ask the Deputy Prime Minister: Will the government bring in employment targets in its new budget so it can be held accountable for its budgetary and fiscal plans?
Oral Question Period
Hamilton East
Sheila Copps Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Environment
Mr. Speaker, the preamble to the member's question is not correct. In fact the Liberal Party met its obligations very specifically to get certain amendments to the NAFTA. Those were achieved by the work of the Prime Minister.
If we are going to make statements in the House we should make sure we are on track. That being said, obviously the first priority of the government is job creation. We are disappointed that the figures are not better. We have a fiscal plan and a jobs plan on track.
Because the hon. member has a great deal of experience in this area, I know she is going to want to work collaboratively with the Minister of Human Resources Development. We do want to live up to our obligation to get Canadians back to work. That is why they have put their confidence in us and we intend to discharge it.
Oral Question Period
The Speaker
I want to share some information with my colleagues. On a normal day we can get approximately 15 or 16 questioners on, but today was a particularly good day.
If I may make an observation both the questions and the answers proceeded very well and we had 19 questioners on today. This is the way the House should be going. With the co-operation of members I think we can make it work.
Committees Of The House

moved for leave to introduce Bill C-9, an act to amend the Income Tax Act.

However since this is an historic day, this is the first bill I have introduced, I thought I would just tell members about it. It is an act to amend the Income Tax Act.

Paul Devillers Simcoe North, ON
Mr. Speaker, I rise under the Standing Orders of this House to present a petition on behalf of 35 of my constituents, requesting that a referendum be held on the question of official bilingualism in Canada.
The petitioners believe that we are spending way too much money on the official languages policy in this country. While I do not share their view, I have the honour of carrying out my
democratic duty by reporting to the House all the views expressed by my constituents.
Routine Proceedings
12:05 p.m.
Rose-Marie Ur Lambton—Middlesex, ON
Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 36 it is my duty and honour to rise in the House to present these petitions duly certified by the clerk of petitions on behalf of the constituents of Lambton-Middlesex and surrounding area.
The petitioners humbly pray and call upon Parliament to ban the sales of serial killer board games and serial killer cards and prevent any other such games, cards or material from being made available in Canada.

Big and casual updo for long, straight hair
A dancers bun receives a styling twist that makes the difference between a studio and dinner and the theater. Straight, dark brunette hair is upswept into a bun on top of the head. The length and volume of the hair results in a larger-than-usual bun that looks soft, in contrast to the severe and tightly twisted dancer's bun. Stray wisps allowed to fall out of the bun further reinforce the perception of a relaxed updo. Hair is swept clean off the face and allows other features to shine, such as darkly made-up eyes.

Hi there!
A girl posted this message to the FoH's e-mail. I thought maybe she could have an exhibition at the TK+volunteer in the café. What do you think? I'll also post you forward you her e-mail so you could get back to her!
'Dear Forest-people,
I am a woodcarver and run together with a friend, a small workshop in Berlin. www.schnitzophren.com
My English is not so good. I grew up in Switzerland and now live in Berlin for 5 years in an apartment with five people, workshop and store. In Switzerland, the teaching of English is not perfectly straight and I hate me not to be able to communicate properly. I believe that my English would be better pretty quickly if I need to talk I would like to catapult me to an English speaking country.
A friend of mine told me of you and I am writing now and hope for luck.
Maybe you can use my help in any areas of need. I'm craftsmen use and like for everything removed, repaired, or whatever needs a helping hand. (I'm not a carpenter, and can't build right furniture) My work here in Berlin, unfortunately, it allowed me not take away too long I think for two weeks would be great. And this is also possible even in winter, so February would be great.
Sorry, I don't know a lot about the forest Café, just the info on the homepage and the stories from my friend - but this sounds great.
To make a little picture of me: I am 26 years old, and as already said wood sculptor. In addition to our workshop we do a little shop in which we have different events. At the moment a bit sparse but that will come back. Small concerts, lectures, public kitchen, cinema. We are also much in our neighbourhood and organize small festivals,second-hand-markets .....
I would be delighted if I could help you and you speak a lot with me. Because I have very little money it would be great if I could get a little place to sleep. But of course everything only if you are interested in me and my help for you.
I would be very happy!
Best regards from Berlin

All through the years we tell these tales about Italian wine. Stories to get people to feel more comfortable with the different wines, the names, the languages. And after years and years of these stories, whether it's about blood from a saint or a prophet, tears from the Mother of God, bees that flock to the vines or the culinary travels of a hedonistic monk, sometimes these stories finally reach a point, on the wine trail in Italy, where it is time to lay some of them to rest.
After reading several of Jeremy Parzen's blog posts, about Valpolicella, Aglianico, Sangiovese and Vin Santo, I started thinking about doing an event in the Circolo del Vino in my neighborhood. Very lucky to have that room and 30 or 40 people who might be interested in coming to hear me talk about it. Maybe even get Jeremy to drive up from Austin and work the room with me. And taste those wines. With a few surprises thrown in as well.
So that's the plan. Oct 20th at Jimmy's. Busting the myths. Blowing 'em up. Putting them to rest. The time has come. If you are reading this and live near and are interested, get on the mailing list . We are going to harvest new stories from the wine trail and it is shaping up to be a lot of fun. I will just be back from a harvest trip in Italy. Jeremy is there right now, blogging his every vine, every meal, every wine; check it out, his blog is bustling with buoyancy.
This year, even though it has been tough, very tough, for many people, it has also been terrific for Italian wine. We're having an incredible year. The Italians are back from their long summer vacations, and have been hitting the streets, tanned, stylish and ready to work long hours. A post coming soon, we all have been having long days working the markets and then putting on wine dinners. This week, next week, it's an endless feast. I haven't seen the French, the Australians, the Spanish working the markets as vigorously. Maybe that is part of the reason Italian wine is the dominant imported wine in America. Grazie ragazzi. More coming.

Q&A with 2013 Leadville champs Ian Sharman and Ashley Arnold - Page 3
Q&A with Ashley Arnold
Photo by Austin Lottimer
So, you left your job at Trail Runner at the beginning of this year to focus more on your training … and it seems like you've been pretty much on fire all summer long with your wins at Desert Rats, White River and now Leadville. How are you feeling about your training overall this year in comparison to past years?
I think my training hasn't been very targeted, but overall, it's been more relaxing and more stress free. At the same time, I've been sick on and off a lot of the year, so I am pretty surprised that I've had such a good season. Definitely makes me feel like I have a lot of room for growth and improvement.
In 2010 at Leadville, you struggled a lot with sleep deprivation going up Powerlines (which seemed to be my downfall at this year's race!) How did your experience this year compare?
Well, to be honest, I have had a lot of sleep deprivation over the past year. I've grown pretty good at going to sleep super late and waking up super early and functioning. While I've worked hard to get my biorhythms back to normal over the past month or so, my ability to function on less sleep now, really paid off at Leadville. I didn't get sleepy at all. Of course, I'm sure getting up to the top of Powerlines before needing a headlamp was helpful.
What else did you learn from your experience in 2010 that helped you train for this year's race?
Consistency and being conservative. Hiking up Hope Pass.
What was the hardest aspect of the race for you this year?
The rocks. In the dark, on tired legs. Coming back around Turquoise Lake after spraining my ankle back in December I am really, really cautious about rocky terrain—really to a fault. I got scared during that section, and I was tired. It was hard to really push myself there when I had a big lead. I also was pretty sick for the first 39 miles so I had a hard time taking in calories until I got to Twin Lakes the first time.
How about the most enjoyable part?
My crew and pacers were incredible. NO WAY could I have completed the race without them. They lifted my spirits every time I saw them.
It was awesome seeing you near the top of Hope Pass, as you were on your way down and me on my way up. You looked really strong … is it nerve-wracking leading a race and wondering whether anyone will catch up to you, or did you enjoy leading?
It was a little nerve-wracking heading out of Hope and seeing other women coming into Winfield. But as the race continued and the gap widened, I felt a little better, though, still a little paranoid at the idea of just leading all day and then maybe losing in the last few hours. At the top of Hope, though, I was feeling really good. I felt good all the way into Twin Lakes really. Zach [Woodward] was a great pacer in that section. I had been a little behind on my water and salt intake, so we worked pretty hard on that on the way up Hope. It was so great to see so many familiar faces (like you!) on the way back!
What's next for you? Will you keep focusing on the ultra distance?
Definitely I'll keep running ultras, but I'll do some shorter stuff also to mix it up. I might be running UROC, but my dance company, Co-Motion, has a performance in late September in Carbondale [Colorado], and the dates are similar. So, my fall schedule is a little up in the air. I need to finish choreographing this dance and give my body a week to recover before I start running again. I will definitely run TNF50 in San Fran, though. I am already ready to run Leadville again. Surprisingly, the next day I was ready to run it again.
Anything else to share about your Leadville experience?
I feel so fortunate to have my legs, to have the ability to see so many amazing places by foot. To be able to run a race like Leadville and to have my closest friends and family there, supporting me. I am so, so, so thankful.

This is the fourth time I do a schiacciata all'uva and is the best I made. I just love the contrast of flavors and the sweet explosion in your mouth when you bite a grape, this is my recipe.AP Flour 80%Whole wheat flour 20%Water 70%IDY .7%EVOO 2.5%I left the dough in the fridge for 3 days, 3 hours on the counter then to the pan and put the grapes (I use seedless red grapes) pushing in to the dough more then I add EVOO and rosemary on top and sprinkle some sugar (I love brown sugar so I normally put a lot).Let it rise for 1 to 2 hours and bake.
norma,I bake it in a 12x12 Lloyd Sicilian pan.
RamirOk,I was curious about the thickness factor you used with the recipe you posted. Can you tell me the total dough weight and/or the weights of the individual ingredients? That information will allow one to make the same focaccia but in different pan sizes.Thanks.Peter
RamirOk,I forgot to ask you before, but did you oil your pan before baking?Thanks,Norma
Yes I just brush a little on the corners and made an X in the middle.
I don't remember the total dough weight but here are the weights of the individual ingredients:Flour: 256 gWhole wheat flour: 64 gWater: 221 gIDY: 2.21 gSalt: 3.16 gOlive Oil: 7.89 gI'll be waiting for your results to know what TF I use.
Pete, here's the recipe from the Master Chef Australia show420g flour285g cool water10g yeast (they used cake yeast)10g salt1 T evooif I remember correctly, they just spread it out on parchment in a generally rectangular shape (don't have measurements), and cooked it at 415 degrees for 15 minutes, directly on the oven floor.

MADISON, Wis. (WFRV)-- The Wisconsin State Senate has passed a bill that will require state schools to promote abstinence as the only reliable way to prevent pregnancy.
The Republican backed bill does not require abstinence-only courses but does allow schools to offer those classes, something banned under current legislation.
Under current state law, schools are required to cover issues such as STD's and how to use birth control. The author of the new bill says this proposal provides schools with more freedom when designing their sexual education courses.
Planned Parenthood is calling the bill an extreme version of sex education and says it focuses on ideology, and ignores statistics that show comprehensive sex education works.
"This rolls back 20 years of progress, 20 years of research, it's anti-science," said Nicole Safar, Public Policy Director for Planned Parenthood, "To say that we are deeply disappointed is an understatement."
The Assembly now has the bill, and is expected to vote on it soon.

Alaska Rush Conduct Violations Policies and Procedures
Mission Statement and Rush Values
Alaska Rush's Board of Directors, its staff, its Coaches, its players and its parents all take seriously and strive daily to act in accordance with the Rush Core Values (Accountability, Advice, Empathy, Enjoyment, Humility, Leadership, Passion, Respect, Safety, Tenacity and Unity), and the Rush Soccer Mission Statement: Rush Soccer is committed to providing an unparalleled soccer experience for all who have interest in the game of soccer. The Rush promotes the spirit of sportsmanship, the electricity of competition and the importance of pure enjoyment. The Rush accepts the responsibilities of teaching life lessons to our athletes to further their development inside the game and out. The Rush is committed to making soccer a pleasant, safe and rewarding experience for everyone involved, regardless of age or ability. We believe that all players are winners because everyone is afforded an equal opportunity to explore their potential and pursue positive outcomes on and off the field. Through quality coaching, sound leadership and absolute sincerity, the Rush will work to be the best club in the state, nation and world.
Codes of Conduct
To implement these aspirational concepts, Rush has created separate Codes of Conduct for its coaches, its players and its parents. Those have been discussed at length with those to whom they apply, trained on, and signed to assure comprehension of the concepts, and agreement to abide by their terms.
Links to each inks to each Code can be accessed here:
Actionable Code Violations
Unfortunately, as in any organization, incidents arise that constitute violations of these codes of conduct. Serious and actionable violations of these Codes can, and should, become the basis of an investigation and where warranted will be addressed with follow-up action.
Note that Alaska Rush is an organization with highly competitive players, coaches, and parents, all with different backgrounds, abilities, expectations and modes of expression. Considering this, there are countless frustrations, disagreements, opposition to basic coaching techniques, and points of minor misconduct that, while perhaps not within the spirit of a code of conduct are "minor" infractions and are not considered "Actionable Code Violations." An Actionable Code Violation is a violation of a Code of Conduct that is serious, systemic, pervasive and/or involves player safety.
To the maximum extent possible, minor infractions should be worked out at the situational level using on-the-ground conflict resolution techniques: players should work out disagreements with players, parents with parents, and parents with coaches/managers. Patience, respect and understanding should be used to resolve such matters.
Conduct Committee.
For Actionable Code Violations, or in the event that good faith situational conflict resolution techniques discussed above do not adequately address a minor infraction, the matter can -- and should -- be elevated.
To avoid grievances being brought through informal channels such as verbal complaints to Rush staff, team managers or individual Board members, the Rush Board of Directors and Technical Staff have worked together to create an avenue for aggrieved individuals to lodge formal complaints. This mechanism is the Rush Alaska Conduct Committee.
The Conduct Committee was appointed by the Board of Directors, answers to the Board of Directors, and serves as the sole conduit for requests to address Actionable Code Violations. The Conduct Committee is composed of three individuals from Anchorage and Fairbanks who are Rush coaches and also possess personal/professional skills appropriate to this important post, such as professional expertise in the law or risk assessment.
Code Violation Complaint Procedure.
Committee members should not be approached individually or informally. For an alleged Actionable Code Violation, a complainant will:
- Send an email to the following email address <email@example.com>, including the following information:
- Complainant's name and contact information. Anonymous complaints do not allow for adequate and proper investigation, and may not allow the Conduct Committee the ability to investigate as effectively or timely. If a matter is serious enough to be characterized as an Actionable Code Violation, it should not be anonymous. Thus, anonymous complaints are not prohibited, but are highly discouraged. Bear in mind that retaliation of any kind for bringing violations to the attention of Rush staff, the Rush Board of Directors, or the Conduct Committee, is strictly prohibited and would itself form the basis of an Actionable Code Violation, meriting inquiry and severe discipline.
- A detailed account of the alleged violation(s) of which Code(s) of Conduct, including who committed it, when and where it occurred, and what proof is available to substantiate the complaint.
- Witness contact information, including a statement about what such witnesses should be able to verify or corroborate.
- The Conduct Committee will follow-up appropriately with any possible investigation, witness interviews, and analysis.
- The Conduct Committee will generate a confidential investigative report, with findings and recommended action, to include no action, remedial action, or disciplinary action.
- The Board's findings and recommendations will be presented to the Rush Board of Directors, who will review the findings with appropriate staff (excluding any staff who are or may be implicated in the findings).
- The Rush Board of Directors will, in executive session, make a final disposition and direct whatever follow-up actions may be appropriate.
- The complaint, investigation and action will be kept private and confidential to the extent practicable, limited only to necessary parties and the complainant(s). Those assisting in the investigation will be asked to cooperate in maintaining discretion by also maintaining the privacy and confidentiality of the matter(s) investigated and participants of such investigation(s).

Space Sex Could Prove Difficult When Traveling to the Stars
Tiffany Kaiser
October 3, 2011 11:16 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
A lack of gravity could prevent interstellar travelers from reproducing, which is vital to successfully making it to their destination 4 light-years away
Traveling to another star introduces a list of potential problems. One major issue is that the closest star is 4 light-years away, where one light-year is equal to 6 trillion miles. Such a journey could take decades to centuries to complete, meaning the humans aboard would have to procreate, but experts say space sex is just another bullet point on the list of possible hindrances associated with the voyage to the stars.
The problem with
space sex
is the lack of gravity, according to Athena Andreadis, biologist at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
"Sex is very difficult in zero gravity, apparently, because you have no traction and you keep bumping against the walls," said Andreadis. "Think about it: You have no friction, you have no resistance."
After sex, there's the birthing process to think about. According to Andreadis, giving birth in zero gravity would be "hell" because gravity and the weight of the baby help the process along.
Microgravity has been known to have negative
effects on the human body
over time, such as impaired vision, atrophying muscles, reduced blood volume and diminished bone mineral. If microgravity can have such effects on the human body, it could likely harm a fetus or cause birth defects.
Dan Buckland, an MIT researcher who spoke on the topic of space sex and traveling to the stars at the 100-Year Starship Symposium, said that it is currently unknown what gravity has to do with
successful reproduction
and birth in space, but large starships with the ability to simulate gravity onboard that is also self-sustainable for such a long journey would be required.
While we are far from even that sort of technological development, there is yet another challenge even further ahead in the future if humans were to travel to a star: finding a
habitable planet
to settle.
Experts say other habitable planets will unlikely mimic Earth, hence, the human settlers would need to live in a dome with an Earth-like biosphere or terraforming the planet as a whole, which is terribly difficult. Terraforming is the process of modifying a planet's atmosphere, temperature, ecology or surface topography in order to make it more similar to Earth.
"Not only are we bad at terraforming, but we don't have the life span or the attention span to carry it through," said Andreadis. "Terraforming is a failure of the imagination. It's like people who take those expensive trips to Paris and eat at McDonald's."
Andreadis even mentioned genetically engineering humans to make it so they can journey to a star and live on another planet without complications, but this raises ethical issues of creating an entirely different second species of human.
"I'd be pissed too, but you didn't have to go all Minority Report on his ass!" -- Jon Stewart on police raiding Gizmodo editor Jason Chen's home

With the whole familly !
The appartment has a good location. Hancock street is very quiet and just a 10 minute walk from the nearest Subway. From there you are with the A expres line in about 20' in mid Manhattan. In the house itself we saw deferred maintenance. The main double bed was in such a condition that we put the matrass straight on the floor. Based on the positive reviews the appartment therefore was quite a surprise. The second twin bed in the smaller room was also in a bad shape. Instead of that we used the sofabed, which we moved to the kitchen! At first sight it all looked quite clean, but at a second look this was not the case, especially in the kitchen area (closets, oven, microwave). After all, we had a good week, due to our own adaptations and care.
The apartment is spacious and clean. Bathroom is a bit small but absolutely adequate. The bed in the second bedroom was a bit narrow for our 14-year-old twins so one of them slept on the sofa bed which was perfectly ok. Coretta was very nice and easy going. The neighborhood is safe and sound, very quiet and neat street, and the apartment is only a few blocks away from the A train to Manhattan. We stayed for 9 nights and enjoyed it very much.
A very pleasant stay at Corettas in Brooklyn. Price vs quality was very good and everything was nice, clean and tidy. You can really feel at home her, making your own breakfast and also dinner if you want.
The concept of living in Brooklyn as a home-base was excellent!
Coming back from Manhattan to Bed-Stuy in the evening was really nice.
Going with the Metro late nights was no problem, feeling secure the whole way.
A quiet place with a bunch of friendly and helping people.
Small restaurants nearby and several stores to by food and others.
Next time we'll go to New York - this is the place to book!
Thanks Coretta and thanks Wimdu for good services and a reliable concept.
It was superb!
Det var kanonbra!
Das war wunderbar!
Erik & Camilla
Lovely apartment. Lots of space, lots of storage, enough privacy options by the three rooms. Well stove and quick sound wave, all that is required of material to cook yourself delicious. Well bring some herbs.
It was just climbing every day because we were on the third floor but the stairs are not too steep. Pleasant neighborhood. Not very rich so not too many nice restaurants to go but simple tables and takeaway. Easily accessible by subway, but if you do not want to be in the southern part of Manhattan, have to look, walk and move to eg. 4 or 5 in Fulton. Count three minutes to an hour. But in return, you have a base for all of New York. Coretta and our hostess was friendly and helpful! A must so if you are with 3-4 people.
Heerlijk appartement. Lekker ruim, veel kastruimte, voldoende privacymogelijkheden door de drie kamers. Goed fornuis en snelle degelijke magnetron, alles wat aan materiaal nodig is om zelf lekker te kunnen koken. Wel zelf wat kruiden meenemen.
Het was wel even klimmen elke dag omdat we op drie hoog zaten maar de trappen zijn niet al te steil. Prettige buurt. Niet erg rijk dus ook niet veel gezellige restaurantjes om te gaan tafelen maar wel eenvoudige en afhaalmaaltijden. Goed bereikbaar met de metro, maar als je niet in het zuidelijke deel van Manhattan wilt zijn, is het even zoeken, lopen en overstappen op bijv. 4 of 5 bij Fulton. Reken op drie kwartier tot een uur. Maar in ruil daarvoor heb je een uitvalsbasis voor heel New York. En onze gastvrouw Coretta was vriendelijk en behulpzaam! Een aanrader dus als je met 3-4 personen bent.
The apartment is large en beautiful. It's a floor of a typical brownstone house, built in 1850, located in a very nice street. By staying in Brooklyn you see something of this district too, which is worthwhile. The subway is nearby; line A brings you to Manhattan.
Coretta, we thank you for your hospitality!
Good quality / price ratio for this apartment where we spent 1 week. In addition to what is noted, there hairdryer, ironing board and iron.
The express subway (Nostrand Ave) is 10 minutes and close to Manhattan. There is also the Manhattan bus nearby.
Coretta are friendly and accommodating. She lives in 2 steps of the apartment which makes things easier.
Here we have a glimpse of real life in Brooklyn
Bon rapport qualité/prix pour cet appartement dans lequel nous avons passé 1 semaine. En plus de ce qui est noté, il y a sèche-cheveux, planche et fer à repasser.
Le métro express (Nostrand Ave) est à 10mn et proche de Manhattan. Il y a aussi les bus de Manhattan dans le coin.
Coretta est sympa et accomodante. Elle habite à 2 pas de cet appartement ce qui facilite les choses.
Ici, on a un aperçu de la vraie vie dans Brooklyn
We had a great stay in this lovely apartment. The area is very nice, safe and quiet. The subway is very near and connection to all highlights of New York is easy. Thank you Coretta for the great service and if we will visit new york again, we will definetely stay in your apartment.
Free Wifi, clean apartment, the host is friendly and no issues at all.
100% recomendable
I gladly recommend this apartment to anyone who wants to enjoy a stay in this genuine NY area. The apartment is spacious and comfortable and was properly cleaned up upon our arrival. The kitchen includes all the devices necessary for preparing simple dishes and there were also some basic food stuffs in the fridge and the pantry. The neighbourhood felt safe and everyone we met was very keen to help us since we often needed to ask for directions. Coretta and her husband are both very nice and they stayed up until 4 am to welcome us and hand over the keys when our flight was 8 hours delayed, which we are very grateful for. Much quality for such cheap price!!

Here's how RW members rated this race (82 votes).
In short: My favourite event of the year!In full: I love the scenery, the challenges and the friendly people to run with! It is always a really enjoyable experience. Thank you to all the officials for making it happen. Date of review: April 7, 2013
In short: Excellent Event!In full: This is such an excellent event. The third time of the 40 mile for me. Excellent administration area, changing and shower area. Well stocked food stations and plenty of marshals. All smiling and very supportive spending a long time out on course making sure they look after the runners. Well done to the organisers, a great event for the 20 or 40mile. This year the sun was out and added to such a nice day. Great signs around the course with the added flour markings. What a day, recommended. Meal and technical shirt a bonus. Thank you - well done all.Date of review: April 7, 2013
In short: Fantastic race, my first 40miler, excellent support and brilliant sceneryIn full: Arrived very nervous due to it being my first 40miler. But this quickly passed due to the fantastic people and marshals who gave an immense amount of support throughout the event.Will defiantly be back next year!Date of review: April 6, 2013
In short: My perfect raceIn full: This has to be one of my favourite races,varied terrian, off road, amazing scenery, great organisation, challenging hills, wonderful waterstations, useful finisher technical t-shirt and even a meal & drinks provided at the end. Date of review: April 6, 2013
In short: Fantastic race, friendly marshalls, great organisationIn full: What a great race !!! The organisation was really good. I generally get lost on races without many marshalls but there was no way that could happen here. Detailed and clear directions on the course meant I didn't need to check the written directions at all. The marshalls were friendly and there was lots of snacks provided inc. tea and coffee. The T shirt was really nice technical one and there was a meal at the end too. Last years T shirts (technical) were on sale for £2 with an honesty box for payment. All this for £15 and fantastic weather and stunning scenery.Date of review: April 6, 2013
In full: One of my best races.Never seen so much welcome and lovely grub at a race before.Happy marshals, happy runners, lovely day.In fact the sun deserves to shine on all at Compton Harriers for giving your fellow runners such a treat.Stourbridge salutes you all!Bloody hard 20 mile race though! Let alone how the 40 milers are coping with all those hills again,they must be hard as nails.Date of review: April 6, 2013
In short: Tough, friendly, beautiful, well organised trail race.In full: Thank-you Compton Harriers for another edition of the great race made even better by being the best weather so far this year. The shirt is so cool :)Date of review: April 6, 2013
In short: Excellent - as always; one year i'll take the plunge and move up to the 40!Date of review: April 11, 2012
In short: Once again, thanks to all at Compton Harriers and all your helpers. In full: A great event. You fully deserve the praise from the other reviewers.Date of review: April 10, 2012
In short: Absolutely birlliant, incredible value for money!In full: This was our first attempt at an ultra and we were pretty daunted at the thought of 40 cross country miles but we thoroughly enjoyed the Compton Challenge. The support en route was superb - both in terms of the encouragement and the eight very well stocked feed stations - the weather was kind to us and the scenery was just gorgeous. I have mentally blocked out some of the steeper hills though my legs are still feeling it a bit. The sausage, chips and beans at the end was the best I've ever tasted! Fab T shirt and a creme egg too - what more do you need?! Well done and thank you Compton Harriers, this was the best off-road event we've done yet. See you in 2013! Date of review: April 10, 2012

Even if you change your baby's diaper religiously, most babies get at least one diaper rash between the ages of 4 and 15 months - it's just a fact of life when you spend it in a snug, damp diaper.
A generic diaper rash is caused by wetness and chaffing and will cause your baby's diaper area to become red and puffy. Even those expensive, super-absorbent diapers will leave a little moisture next to your baby's skin, and when bacteria from your baby's stool mixes with urine, it breaks down the chemicals in the urine, forming ammonia that can irritate your baby's delicate skin. Babies with sensitive skin are more prone to diaper rash, even with frequent changing; and if your baby is taking antibiotics, she may develop diarrhea, which can also cause diaper rash.
A yeast (Candida) infection can also cause a rash on your baby's diaper area, and appears as tiny red spots that multiply and mass into a raised, patchy bright or dark red rash with distinct borders. The affected area may be tender or painful and it can creep into the creases of skin around your baby's genitals and legs. You can differentiate a yeast infection from irritation because, unlike simple irritation, yeast causes redness in the folds and creases. A yeast infection can develop if your baby's skin is irritated (by wet diapers, for instance), which allows the yeast that is normally found in her body to get into the cracks in her skin and flourish. Babies who are on antibiotics are especially prone to yeast infections because the antibiotics kill healthy bacteria (which limit the amount of yeast in your baby's body) at the same time as the harmful bacteria. If your baby develops a yeast infection, you should take her to see the pediatrician, who will probably prescribe an anti-fungal medication.
A diaper rash may also be the result of a bacterial infection such as impetigo, which appears as yellowish, fluid-filled bumps and honey-colored, crusty areas. It may also be caused by seborrhea, which appears as red, scaly, waxy patches on your baby's abdomen and groin area.
The best way to prevent and treat diaper rash is to keep your baby's diaper area as clean and dry as possible by changing her frequently. And use a barrier ointment at every diaper change to form a protective layer on the skin. There are a variety of ointments on the market, such as petroleum jelly (which rubs off easily), A&D Ointment, white zinc oxide (a thicker cream which may be better for babies prone to rashes), and hydrocortisone 1% cream (put on twice a day under any of the other creams for severe rashes - but do not use for more than several consecutive days, as long-term use can damage sensitive diaper-area skin). Don't use talcum powder, which can irritate your baby's lungs if it is inhaled, or cornstarch, which may promote the growth of yeast and bacteria.
Let your baby go diaper-free for as long as possible every day to let the diaper area dry out, and consider letting your baby sleep diaper-free - just be sure to use a plastic liner sheet to catch accidents. Make sure your baby's diapers aren't so tight that there's no room for air to circulate; and avoid airtight fabrics such as tight plastic pants.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: First time this year, but really enjoyed it and will be backDate of review: May 15, 2012
In short: This was my third year - and I enjoyed it yet againIn full: I enjoy the certainty that this will be a great Saturday morning, but that there will be some new things to discover / notice. This year the airfield rallying and some remote control planes. Oh, and I knew I was fitter than last year when I didn't lose my balance on the stepping stones and kept my feet dry(ish!)Date of review: November 14, 2011
In short: Enjoyed this again this yearDate of review: October 10, 2011
In short: This is a great race - there for the 3rd time this yearIn full: Speedy results and great photos are a real plus for this very friendly race. The marshalls were encouraging and there was support en route. Hope to be back again next year.Date of review: June 12, 2011
In short: A fun, family day outIn full: I ran the 10k, my sons ran the fun run and a good time was had by all. Contrary to others - as I only appear to run hilly races, I did get a PB! Was a tough last 200m though.Date of review: March 28, 2011
In short: Just as good second time roundIn full: Checked my review from last year - said I'd do it again - and I did (and in 'proper' trail shoes - although I don't think it made a huge difference!).Beat my time, but it still felt tough - but great to finish.Date of review: November 13, 2010
In short: My first half marathon - so guaranteed a PB. I enjoyed the park sections.In full: I enjoyed this (strangely enough) especially where there was support out on the route. It was well marshalled although I felt sorry for the later runners in the town centre as the drummers packed up and the shoppers didn't really keep the route clear. Have an open mind about next year!Date of review: October 10, 2010
In short: 3rd time around it's no easierIn full: This race has a strange charm - it's a tough one but a challenge and I keep coming back.Thanks guys, but could it be cooler next year (although I appreciated the water)Date of review: August 15, 2010
In short: Better weather and better preparation meant I had a better run than last year!Date of review: May 19, 2010
In short: Lovely early Saturday morning run outIn full: Great to see a race that starts at a good time and on a Saturday - leaves the rest of the weekend to recover!It was good weather and a good time was had by all. Hope to run again next year. Hopefully it wan't get too huge, some of the charm is the small field.Date of review: April 18, 2010

Bikes & Gear For Fitness, Commuting & Recreation

From versatile hybrids to ultra-rugged mountain bikes, you can maximize your ride with a bike that's designed for your unique journey. Get in the saddle today with performance frames, wheels and features. Before you begin, think about where and how you will ride:
- Mountain Bikes are designed to handle rough terrain encountered on unpaved trails and off-road adventures. These bikes are built with sturdy frames and high clearance that enables them to overcome mud, rocks and debris encountered on the trail. They come with upright handlebars for easy handling and wide tires for ample shock absorption.
- Road Bikes are best for riding on pavement. These bikes are a great match for commuters, fitness riders and long-distance athletes. They are designed with narrow, high-pressured tires that provide a smooth ride, as well as a lighter frame and higher seating position.
- Hybrid Bikes are best for casual road riding or cruising along smooth dirt trails. Hybrids are an excellent utility bike. They possess the lightweight frame of a road bike with the wide tires and high clearance of a mountain bike.
- Cruiser Bikes are designed for style. Leisure riders love biking neighborhood streets or the community park on a cruiser designed with vintage-inspired features, fun colors and an eye-catching design.
Experienced cyclists know it doesnt end with the right bikeyoull need accessories, repair kits, extra tires and more to make your journey complete. Shop the full collection of bike gear for more.
Expert Advice
Use these tips to help you find the bike thats right for you.
- Think about where you will ride your bike will you be trail riding or cruising down neighborhood streets? Choose your bike based on your size and the type of biking your plan to do.
- Off-road cyclists should look for a bike that is constructed with a sturdy frame and wide tires, while road cyclists need a lightweight bike that delivers a smooth ride and superior agility.
- Cyclists looking to bike both on and off-road should consider a hybrid bike that blends features of road and mountain bikes for total versatility. Look for features that add comfort and ease of movement to your ride, like narrow handlebars and wider seat.
- Comfort bikes are ideal for leisure cyclists looking for a relaxing ride and ample shock absorption. Serious long-distance riders, meanwhile, might opt for the tenacity and sleek design of a cyclocross bike.
- Aluminum is the most common material used in the construction of bicycles and delivers a lightweight feel for an agile ride. Steel proves the most durable in a variety of terrains and conditions, a feature that is an asset to mountain cyclists.
- Consider the braking system on your bike. Coaster brakes engage with reverse pressure on the pedals. Rim brakes employ a soft rubber brake pad, while disc brakes use a metallic disc as a pad.
- Do you commute to work? Folding bikes can easily collapse if you need to catch a bus. Plus, theyre lightweight and require minimal storage space.
- Pick up a pair of cycling shoes to experience grip and stability on your new bike.

Silver Lake on track to raise $10bn fund
Silver Lake Partners is on course to raise a fourth fund of more than $10bn, according to two investors close to the deal.
This would top the $9.4bn raised for its third fund and would be one of the largest industry fundraisings since the start of the financial crisis in 2008 and the biggest since Advent International raised $10.8bn last November.
One investor said of Silver Lake: "They are now talking seriously about getting above $10bn." Another said that the technology-focused firm has not set an upper limit.
The bumper fundraiser comes amid the toughest climate for new money in a decade, which has polarised the industry and favoured firms involved in large successful deals that have delivered strong returns.
Silver Lake scooped $2.9bn when it sold internet phone company Skype in May 2011 and is currently in talks to become a minority investor as part of the takeover of $23bn US computer maker Dell.
TowerBrook Capital Partners has attracted $4.6bn in commitments in three months and is now scaling back allocations to its initial $3.5bn target for a "one and shut" close, according to three European investors. It exited luxury shoe maker Jimmy Choo for £500m.
Richard Watkins, a partner at law firm Kirkland & Ellis, said: "We are seeing a bifurcation in the market. Whilst effective pre-marketing can play an important role in accelerating the timetable, investors are still principally concerned with the strength of the offering, including past performance."
Silver Lake did not respond to requests for comment and TowerBrook declined to comment.
