Mark Naison: The idea of closing low performing schools, designated as such entirely on the basis of student test scores, removing half of their teaching staff and all of their administrators, and replacing them with a new school, has tremendous appeal among business leaders and almost none among educators.
Redistricting and California's African Americans
Jasmyne Cannick: The bottom line is that they can draw all the Black voter-friendly districts they want but if Blacks continue on this mass exodus to the South, there won't be enough Blacks left to vote anyone into office and the ones that are left won't have the same adoration for the political process as their ancestors.
Tide Turning on California's Death Penalty
James Clark: The dominoes are falling fast as more and more people in California are learning what a waste the death penalty has become.
Ladies, Should You Ask For It?
Manisha Thakor: Babcock observes that people who negotiate tend to have a worldview that is more "optimistic than fatalistic, malleable versus fixed." Psychologists have noted that men consistently – across countries – have a higher propensity to see "the world as their oyster" than women. Ergo, more men negotiate than women.
In Defense of Public School Teachers
Mark Naison: In a country with one of the highest rates of poverty in the industrialized world, with almost no social safety net to help struggling families, our teachers have to create a positive learning atmosphere in classrooms filled with young people under stress.
The Proposition 8 Debate: Are "Gay Riots" Really The Way To Sway The Black Community?
I've been watching this same-sex marriage debate for some time and, like most of my community, I'm deeply conflicted about it. As sexual orientation is a deeply personal matter, I chose to remain silent in the pre-election debate. I believe what I believe about who I should be allowed to marry and was not prepared […]

st: Multilevel models (Multilevel mixed-effects model)
Tue, 27 Oct 2009 13:19:56 +0530
Dear all,
This is a question about multilevel models. How many level can be
defined in the current version of the STATA?. I generally use MLWIN
for multilevel analysis. So, I just want to know is it possible to
have more than two levels using STATA either version 10 or 11. How
many levels can be defined in the linear and non-linear models?.
Thanks and regards,

Chapter8 (v.1) - Out in the open
Chapter 8:Out in the open
Once class was out, I threw my stuff in my locker and got out my biology book. Alessa came down the hall and Taylor was right next to her. My eyebrows pulled together as I slammed my locker shut. I never felt this feeling. Was it...jealousy? Must be a human emotion. When Alessa saw me, she looked scared. I walked up to her and Taylor. "Nice to see you two getting along." I said harshly glaring back and forth between them too. Taylor smiled slightly and put an arm around Alessa. "I know right?"
"No, Dalton, it's not what you think. I promise." Alessa said shrugging Taylor's arm off of her. I let out a sigh trying to calm myself down. Damn teenage drama.
"Keep telling youself that, Alessa." Taylor said. He walked away while glaring at me. She looked at me with an apologetic look on her face. "He just started following me and start talking to my about what Kenny did earlier." I nodded. I know that Alessa was faithful. That's what I loved about her. A huge bang echoed throughout the halls behind me and I turned to see the goth girl, Alison pushing Taylor against the lockers. She glared at him ferociously. "Touch my ass again and you're dead meat. Got it?" She asked. He nodded quickly. She let go of his shirt and glanced at me once before walking away. If a girl could stand up to Taylor, I should be able to. "Do you like her or something?" I heard Alessa say. I turned back to her realizing that I was staring at Alison until she turned the corner. "No. I love you. You know that." A small smile appeared on her face. "Yeah, I know." She blushed and tucked a piece of hair behind her ear. "Have fun in your next class." She nodded and kissed me on my cheek before she walked down the hall away from me. My next class was with Kenny. Geometry. One of the worst classes a human could have. He sat all the way in the back and I sat beside him. "Guess what?" He asked. I looked at him. "I have another dentention." I smiled. "Who were you kissing this time?"
"Kayla's sister but in my defense, she's pretty hot and I could not resist. And even the principle have to admit that."
"You're a hopeless wreck, Kenny." I said and began to listen as the geometry teacher began to talk about unecessary stuff I learned in the tenth grade. A soft breeze came in the open window and I suddenly saw a black hawk on the window sill. My eyes grew wide. There wasn't hawks in Florida. At least I don't think there was. I tapped Kenny on his arm. He looked at me bored out of his mind. I pointed to the window and he looked. "Whoa. What the hell?" It's eyes were dark. It's feathers were all black. I never seen an all black hawk before. I suddenly heard screaming from the other side of the room. I turned and a girl was backed against the wall pointing to the hawk in the widow. The room erupted in screams and the teacher ran over and- before he could close the window, the hawk flew in with fast speed. Kenny got up falling out of his desk as he backed up against the wall in fear. Everyone began running out. Everyone but me and Kenny. It seemed that we were trapped. It's main focus was on me.
As if it was glaring at me. It was on my desk and I slowly got up not taking my eyes off of it. Part of me was scared but part of me wasn't. And I wasn't sure which part I should trust. It made a 'cawing' sound. I was now against the wall, my eyes wide from fear. It cawed again and then flew towards the window and out. My heart beat was still beating fast. I looked down and Kenny was whimpering. I relaxed and walked over and closed the window. I leaned against it still in shock from what just happened. I slowly looked over as Kenny got up. "Dude, I think I just wet my pants. Seriously." I sighed and closed my eyes.
"Are you serious?!" Alessa asked as I told her what happened in Geometry. We were in the cafeteria. I nodded. "Yeah. I was the only one that was not scared. Everybody else was screaming." Kenny said taking a sip of his water. I looked at him in disbelief. "You peed your pants , Kenny. You were more scared than everyone else." He shrugged.
Alessa touched my shoulder. "I'm glad you okay." She said kissing my cheek softly. Kenny clucked his tongue. "I was scared to. Can I have a kiss on the cheek?" I pushed his arm. "Go find your own girl." I said. He chuckled and began eating his pizza. I turned back to Alessa. "Hey, I want to give you something. It's in my locker." I said grabbing her hand. She followed me down the hall and I put in my combination code. I grabbed the small rectangular black box and grabbed her arm leading her to a small room that not alot of people was aware of. I sometimes came here when the scent of humans got to be too much. I closed the door and turned to her. "What is it?" She asked through the slight darkness. It was vey dim in the room.
I handed it to her and she flashed me a bright smile before opening the box. She sucked in a breath and smiled widely down at the silver bracelet. The silver bracelet had a medium sized glass heart on it and two smaller glass hearts on the side of the bigger one. When she looked up at me, I could see tears glittering in her eyes. "Why are you giving this to me?" She asked. "Why do you think? What do you think the heart represents?" She looked back down at it. I lifted her chin so that I can stare into her warm brown eyes. "The heart represents my love for you, Alessa." I answered. She nodded and looked back down at the bracelet. She was at lost for words. I chuckled and grabbed the bracelet out of the box and hooked it around her wrist. She looked at her wrist and then back up to me. She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me deeply.
I loved the feeling of her body against mine. Her lips were sweet. Her smell was irresistable. I had to compose myself. I pressed her against the wall and kissed her neck. I could hear the blood flowing through her veins. I felt my fangs slide out of my gums and I can feel myself about to lose control. I growled unexpectantly and bit into her neck. She let out a cry of pain and I covered her mouth with my hand as I let her blood fill me. I felt her blood enter my veins. It didn't calm me down, it just made me want more. She gasped and let out more muffled screams. I closed my eyes and continue to accept her blood that was on my tongue. I was killing her. I have to fight. I have to fight. But this is so good. Too good. This isn't right. I loved this girl. Didn't I? With all my strength, I pulled away from her. I looked into her wide startled eyes and tears were streaking down her cheeks. I pulled my hand away and stared at her. "W-What are you?" She asked.
I looked down at the floor. It was time I told her but what if she wanted nothing else to do with me? I sighed. I looked into her eyes and she looked back into mine. She looked at me into oblivion. "You do not remember this. None of this. The last thing you remember was that you left the lunchroom to go to the bathroom and you're going to sit back down and continue your lunch. You saw me go to the boy's bathroom and you're going to tell Kenny that I'll be back in a second." I said. She nodded slowly still staring into my eyes.
"Go to the bathroom and wipe off the blood that's on your neck. Don't tell anyone how it got there. As far as you know, you don't even remember." She nodded again and opened the door and left out. I sighed and leaned against the wall with my head tilted upwards looking at the dim light. I was so close to killing her. Killing the girl that I loved. I'm a monster.
I opened the door and closed it. I started down the hall and Mr. DeLoric was walking towards me. He stopped and looked at me in shock. "Um.........Dalton...is that...blood coming down you lips and chin?" I looked down to see small dots of Alessa's blood on my shirt. I gupled internally. I looked back at him. "No. It's actually ketchup." I lied. I felt weird. It felt as if someone was in my head. I feel the same thing I feel whenever Cyan is reading my thoughts. My eyes grew wide. Was Mr. DeLoric reading my thoughts? He smiled. "Okay. Have a nice day, Dalton." He said as he walked pass me. I looked after him. Was Mr. DeLoric a vampire?
No. Impossible. Why would a vampire be a teacher? I went to my locker and grabbed my black hoody to hide the blood stains. I went to the bathroom and wiped my face and chin of the blood. I brushed my black bangs out from my face and sighed looking at my appearence. My eyes were still black. They're normally a light brown. But they always turn black whenever my fangs come out. I never knew why.
I walked back into the cafeteria. Alessa smiled at me and continued her lunch. Kenny was looking at her. Well...her wrist. "Where did you get that?" He asked looking at her bracelet. She smiled at it at first and then frowned as she looked at him. Her eyebrows pulled together. "I......don't remember." She responded. He looked confused but went back to his lunch. I looked back over to Alessa. I looked at the vein that pumped throughout her neck. I swallowed and looked more closely at it. I got closer and smelled her hair and rubbed my lips against her neck. I kept my eyes closed.
I felt someone grip my shoulder tightly. "Um......Dalton...what are you doing? Especially in front of all these witnesses." Kenny said as if he was trying to hint at something. I quickly pulled away and looked at the table. We were in a room full of witnesses. Even if we wasn't....it would still be a bad idea. It was official.....I am a monster. And now I have to break up with the one girl I've ever loved bacause I wanted to kill her.

I live on Escuela so this hits close to home. I'm ecstatic the MTV Police arrested these criminals, GREAT JOB!!! It was just a matter of time before a snatch and run crime like this became violent and someone gets shot, stabbed or badly hurt. Punks like this make me sick, preying on women for their jewelry. I took heed of this, and enrolled my wife and I in Krav Maga self defense.

Colorado Springs mayor gives positive review to city street crews
Steve Bach defends crews from criticism after Feb. 20 snowstorm
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Colorado Springs Mayor Steve Bach took time on Tuesday to discuss street conditions and snow removal in the city.
A storm two weeks ago closed both ends of Austin Bluffs Parkway and caused numerous crashes and traffic problems around town. There were many complaints that the city didn't do as well as it could have to clear streets.
However, Bach said there have been fewer public complaints since he became mayor in 2010, even though the city has limited resources and deals with storms that are unpredictable. He mentioned two factors behind the decrease in complaints.
"We are testing out-sourcing of snow plowing to private contractors," Bach said. "I think that's going pretty well, and that expands our capability beyond the vehicles that we have ourselves. And we're getting better forecasting, I believe, from the Weather Service. That always helps."
The mayor said he saw no reason to make any changes in city snow removal.
Bach asked that residents who see areas that haven't been plowed and need it, to contact him on his website -- Bachsoffice.com.

Former Longview Mayor Earl Roberts dies at 77
Glenn Evans
Jan. 3, 2014 at 4:35 a.m.
Former Longview Mayor Earl Roberts only served one term as mayor, but left a legacy, friends and family said Friday.
The 77-year-old Roberts, who lost a months-long battle with cancer Thursday night, was a proponent of low taxes and community development when he served as mayor from 2000 to 2003.
Longview Mayor Jay Dean said Roberts made hard decisions that benefited the city, such as freezing the tax rate and cutting things out of the budget to help get the city's finances on track.
"In terms of his service as mayor, the things he did accomplish - especially in one term - are amazing," Dean said. "I personally think Earl Roberts has enhanced and improved the quality of life in the community."
Roberts continued to be an active participant in the community late into his life and assisted with Longview United for Growth's proposition to allow beer and wine sales in North and West Longview - a measure passed by voters in May.
Before his work as mayor, Roberts served as the city's attorney during the 1970s and 1980s.
Roberts, a Longview native, was recognized when his time as attorney ended and was honored again in November by the City Council, which voted to name a ball field at Lear Park after him.
Some of the highlights of his time as city attorney include rewriting the city's Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance in 1968, advising with the Charter Commission in writing the Home Rule Charter, which went into effect Jan. 1, 1979; and the trial of the Spring Hill annexation suit in district court and in the court of appeals in Tyler, with the Texas Supreme Court ruling in favor of the city in 1983.
Other highlights include the successful defense of the city against the Longview Cable Television Co. and the Founders Christian Church.
He was also civically involved as a member of the Gregg County Bar Association, where he served as president in 1963, the American Bar Association, Texas City Attorney Association and National Institute of Municipal Legal Officers. He served as chairman of the Municipal Legal Studies Center of the Southwest Legal Foundation in Dallas, was a former member of the board of trustees of LeTourneau College and chairman of the board of deacons of First Baptist Church in Longview.
Former Councilwoman Margo Talley recalled serving alongside a mayor who wanted his town to grow.
"He also knew that Longview had to grow to attract businesses and people to come here," she said, noting Roberts' awareness of the common East Texas story of children moving to urban areas.
"You could always tell, when he was mayor, that he was doing it because he was really concerned for Longview," Talley said. "It wasn't for any personal gain, not political ambition. He was truly doing it for the love that he had for this community."
Talley said Roberts had followed his father, Meredith Earl Roberts Sr., into the legal profession.
Longview businessman Robert Metzler got to know Roberts on early morning runs with the mayor and other joggers.
"Good memories," Metzler said Friday, before recalling a recent phone conversation during which Roberts soothed his friend's concerns for him. "He said, 'Let's not think about those things now. There will be time for sorrow,' " Metzler said.
Metzler stood in for Roberts when Lear Park was dedicated, fruit of Roberts' efforts to sway landowner Bill Lear to provide land for a top-of-the-line sports complex that draws families from neighboring states to tournaments.
"And Bill (Lear) told me, if it hadn't been for Earl, that park would not be there," he said. "This is where he was born and raised, and he wanted to see it do well."
Metzler said Roberts was instrumental in establishing the North Longview Business Park on North Judson Road. But, mostly, it's the bonding with the man who club members dubbed "King" that took place, step by step, that Metzler will celebrate.
"He not only brought joy to our lives," Metzler said. "He enriched our lives. He went out with a certain graciousness that is typical of Earl."
Roberts' time as mayor saw a fight for the Northeast Texas region to delay the deregulation of electric power - the area remains regulated to this day - and a contentious passage of a smoking ban in city restaurants.
More recently, Roberts had been asked in June to chair the Comprehensive Plan Advisory Committee and agreed to the post before the discovery of his condition.
After his diagnosis, Roberts resigned from the committee that will work to create a 15- to 20-year plan for the city of Longview.
"Earl was a very special and fine gentleman that loved humor, was passionate about Longview and East Texas," said longtime friend Bob Dyer. "He was dedicated to his family, and served his community, church and friends in an exemplary fashion. His unique intellect, wisdom and counsel benefited clients, community, friends, and family ... So many have fond memories of their relationship with Earl as he made such wonderful contributions to their lives."
Gregg County Judge Bill Stoudt said he had known Roberts his entire life.
"When he did legal counsel work, we worked together on numerous projects. He was a great citizen for Longview," Stoudt said. "In more recent years we had a breakfast club that met once a month ... He was an excellent person. His handshake was his word ... It is a big loss for Longview."
A memorial service for Roberts is set for 1:30 p.m. Tuesday at First Baptist Church in Longview with a private burial in New Providence Cemetery.

L. had a friend come over to play yesterday afternoon and I made an attempt to help him clean his room. The other day a student told me that his own room is a "study in organized chaos" and I have to say this description fits L.'s room perfectly. I'm sure most eight-year-old boys' rooms are disaster areas as well, but perhaps without the layers of collections and unfinished projects in every corner. After it was all said and done, here's what I found in his room:
--three circuit boards, one handmade out of cardboard and wires
--several lengths of plastic tubing
--one Tiger's Milk wrapper
--two handwritten copies of the Periodic Table of Elements
--four office-supply catalogs
--one extension cord
--several loose alligator clips* and accompanying wires
--one homemade compass
--one large cardboard box
--one pair of broken binoculars-turned-something-or-other
--several petri dishes
*alligator clips really hurt when you step on them in the dark************
I'm pretty sure one of my many jobs as a parent is to stand in my son's doorway, hands on hips, and admonish him for the state of his room.
"Clean up your room!" I'm supposed to say, then he's supposed to grumble and, eventually, clean it up. This hasn't worked in all the years we've tried this method; the only thing that ever works is the threat of the plastic garbage bag. When things get really bad, I only have to disappear upstairs with a large white plastic bag and L. is fast on my heels, racing to toss his many inventions into drawers, or shove them under the bed. Yet, even as I'm fussing at him about the state of his room, I am always conscious of the fact that L.'s room is his--his valuable space. I don't want to over-impose my sense of order onto his organized chaos, so we're always trying to strike a middle ground--a fair compromise.
This past summer we went to Staples and invested in several bins with drawers, and several spools of label-maker refills so he could have clearly labeled places to put the millions of Playmobil pieces.
"You can do what you want with your Playmobil," we told him, "but at the end of the day, you need to put it somewhere."
Has the system worked? Yes and no. About 70 percent of the tiny Playmobil pieces (tiny pieces of armor, tiny swords, tiny cannonballs, tiny boots) make it into the bins; the rest end up kicked under the desk, bed, or chair, or get vacuumed up once a week. And I'm usually the one who puts the pieces into the bins. The system works great for me, but clearly it hasn't solved all our problems.
I used to agonize about the state of L.'s room, until a friend told me to let it go. "Pick your battles," is what she told me. She advised me to find some acceptable median between what L. chose to live with and what we could live with. So L. and I had a talk about what we could do.
For me it was simple: I need to vacuum once a week without sucking up circuit boards and Playmobil knights; I need to be able to walk across his room without impaling my foot on a tiny plastic sword, or a metal screw or clip. Bottom line: "I need to be able to get from the doorway to your bed, safely," I told L.
So right now, if you were to peek in on his room, you would find organized chaos, indeed: a jumble of hoses and cords and inventions and toys and books and papers parted like the Red Sea, and in between it all a semi-neat path running right through--Mama's path, L. calls it--just broad enough for me to walk across from doorway to his bed, and give him a good-night kiss before I go to bed.

Welcome to Beef Fleckvieh
Welcome to Stanley Martins Fleckvieh Farms. Located 1 mile West of Postville, Iowa on HWY 18. Fleckvieh of Iowa.
We have been in the seedstock business since 1960. Our Fleckvieh Herd consists of 200 cows, 100 Fleckvieh, and 100 Black Fleckvieh. We have placed emphisis on cattle of the highest quaility that are farmer friendly and non-diluter.
The cattle we have today are the results of our endless effort to bring you the best cow families in the world. Live animals and frozen genetics have come from around the globe, most from Canada, a few from the states, in addition to use of semen from direct German imports.
Replacing herd bulls and cows can be very expensive. Four of our present walking bulls have a combined age of 35 years. If your bulls last longer, shouldn't your females last longer as well? Think about it.
This is what I do. These cattle are fully researched and reliable and work under normal farming and ranching conditions. I am 68 years old and will not tolerate calving or disposition issues. Our cattle have produced many rate of gain and carcass champions at County and State Fairs. We are here to help you make your beef operation more profiable! Please call or email.

Man accused of shooting dog who was in his parking spot
GREENVILLE, PITT COUNTY - Greenville Police have arrested a man who they say shot a dog who approached him while he was trying to park his car.
Around 2:30 p.m. in the Sterling Pointe subdivision in Greenville, 27-year-old Devon Smith shot a female boxer mix, according to police.
They say the suspect told officers the dog approached him while he was trying to park his vehicle, and when she didn't move, he allegedly pulled out a 9mm pistol and shot her in the head and chest.
Police say the suspect made no attempt to call 911, and that the dog didn't show any signs of aggression. Witnesses say the dog had been playing with neighborhood children for most of the afternoon.
Police say neighbors tried to attend to the dog, but that she was having seizures and had lost a massive amount of blood. Officers and neighbors tried to help the dog on the scene before rushing her to a veterinarian. Police say the veterinarian discovered that the bullets had also broken the dog's jaw and crushed its front leg. The veterinarian and animal control officers decided to euthanize the dog.
The suspect, Devon Smith, has been charged with Felony Animal Cruelty and Discharging a Firearm Within City Limits. He was booked in the Pitt County Detention Center under a $26,000 bond.
Animal Control officers are still trying to find the dog's owner. She was a female, brindle and white boxer mix, approximately 5 years old. Police say she was wearing a collar but was not wearing tags and was not micro-chipped. Anyone with information about the dog's owner is asked to call the Greenville Police Department.

NEW YORK, Friday—The French Premier, Mr. Pierre Mendes-France, has arrived in this country for a brief official visit. I think all of us should welcome him because his acts, so far, have been both courageous and imaginative in the area of domestic and international politics. I like very much the stress he laid on unity among the Western powers. I hope he will find the support that he looks for from our government, and continues to have support at home, since he does seem to be serving his country in very practical ways at the present time.
Congress seems bound to do away with the Foreign Operations Administration next June and yet the agency, at the request of the National Security Council, is preparing a worldwide program for 1955 and '56. This program apparently would recognize that the area of the world which has the greatest need is Asia, and would spend 70 to 80 percent of the money for foreign aid in that area of the world. Economic programs seem to me, at the present time, to have far greater value both in the Asian areas of the world and in the relations between us and our Central and South American neighbors.
In my view, there should be some reduction in military aid and transference of that aid to economic assistance, but, for security reasons, it is more difficult to get the Congress to vote economic aid than military aid. It is understandable, of course, that we want to strengthen any country that seems to be in danger from Communist attack, but I believe that in some areas of the world the danger of Communist attack is not so much a military danger as an economic danger.

All Senator McCarthy's friends seem to be trying to soften the action against him and the poor man injured his elbow in a handshake and has had to go to the hospital. There is a hint, in various stories I have seen, of dragging in the religious consideration in this affair. It does not seem to me to have anything to do with anyone's religion.
In this country we have a right to belong to any religion we desire without question. We should not be penalized because we belong to any faith. Neither should we have any favors because we belong to any faith.
The question of Senator McCarthy's censure is a case where religion should be strictly left out and the judicial and ethical aspects of the matter should govern the action of Congress. Certain accusations have been brought, a committee has investigated them and the Senate is now asked to act. This seems to me to be a case where religion should be left out and the purely factual and judicial aspects carefully considered by a calm body of men.

THE Duchess of Cambridge was last night "saddened" by the death of a boy who
gave her his last smile.
Kind-hearted Kate paid special attention to leukaemia patient Zakwan Anuar,
15, during her recent Far East tour with Prince William.
Doctors had expected the tragic lad to die within 48 hours of their meeting,
but his 15-minute chat with the Duchess gave him the strength to battle on
for two more weeks.
Kate was told of Zakwan's death after mum Norizan Sulong contacted The Sun.
Norizan said: "We were next to him when he had his last moment. He was
surrounded by his brother, sister, father, grandfather, grandmothers and
school mates. I miss him terribly."
A St James's Palace spokeswoman said: "The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are
saddened to hear of Zakwan's death. Their thoughts are with his family."
Kate was compared to the late Princess Diana after her emotional meeting with
Zakwan at a hospice in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
She tenderly laid a hand on his cheek and said: "Are you in pain? You're a
brave boy."
Before the visit, Zakwan spent his days asleep or crying with pain. But his
face lit up when he saw Kate. He grinned and told her she was "very pretty"
as she signed his birthday card. She said he was "very handsome".
Norizan, 47, said the "overwhelming" encounter lifted Zakwan's spirits. She
added: "I hope William and Kate will have beautiful and healthy children of
their own one day."

Today would have been a usual weekday Wednesday, if it wasn't Daddy's Birthday.
We had homemade chili and crackers, and cherry cake and cherry fudge swirl ice cream. Momma tried to spank Daddy a birthday spank, but as always he is way too bigger than she is, so Mom gave him some raspberries to go with his cherry cake and ice cream. Like this - Psstp ... Psstp ... Psstp! The humans have been teasing Daddy for a year that today he was going to be double nickel. I have no idea what a double nickel Daddy is. Maybe that means Daddy is going to be two of him half his size? Would it be easier to birthday spank two little daddies? Humm ... which face would I sleep on and which would I lick the right guard out of the arm pit of?
After Daddy's birthday lunch and dessert, Daddy had to go to work. All of us furs and Momma got our round of hugs and kisses and goodbyes. Bye Bye Daddy. Have a great night at work and come home safe.
Momma got to the computer and downloaded her email as she transferred the photos on the digital camera of the four little one's 11th weeks photos. She had a fleeting thought of taking my photo. The leaves were cleaned up, but background and the Halloween kitty color was handy. Then she decided aganist it. I was so dirty and stained and she didn't feel like giving me a bath today. So Momma dismissed the idea to today.
Yes. I am a dirty and stained kitty. I haven't been my beautiful white self for two years. In my young, I was an over groomer and I would actually rip my fur out and make myself bleed. It is a job to keep beautiful pure white fur clean and perfect, you know. Two years ago, I slowly lost my desire to be a pretty kitty. I guess I was getting tired and my heart wasn't letting me have enough energy anymore. You see, I was born with a grade 2 heart murmur. It later progressed to a 3 and stayed there for a long time, then two years ago suddenly to a 6 (Some vets do A to D. My vet does 1 to 6). Momma and Daddy knew all of my life that I would eventually go into congestive heart failure and it would be time for my journey to Rainbow Bridge.
It's time for afternoon lickin's and a nap. Lickin's are kitty treats that are good for kitties. They have stuffs in them that are good for our teeth and to cut down on hairballs. I really don't have many teeth to worry about anymore as I only have 6 with no fang tooth on one side and a broken fang tooth on the other side, but I can still toss a fantastic hairball ... move on over Cy Young , Christy Mathewson , Walter Johnson , Sandy Koufax , Steve Carlton , and Nolan Ryan. I eat up my lickin's and then I curl up on the cushion for my afternoon nap. I hear Momma in the kitchen cleaning up the Chili mess as I drift off to nappy time land.
I am not sure how much time had passed. I was at nappy time and time gets away from a kitty in nappy time land. I get up to wonder around a bit and for some reason I feel a bit different. I yawn. Hey, I have all of my teeth. Even my broken fang I had all of my life isn't broken anymore. What is this? I look at my paws and my tail, and they are not stained. My beautiful white fur ... look at my beautifully perfect white fur. I'm beautiful white again and it doesn't hurt to walk anymore. I have to show Momma!
I run to show Momma. This is wonderful to be and feel like a kitten again. I run around her feet and paw at her to look at me. I can even jump high enough to paw her shoulder. Mom is so busy cleaning up around the house that I cannot get her attention. Momma is dusting and sweeping and moping but I am so excited I'm not gonna stop trying.
Finally, it's time for Momma to go to bed. Momma has to notice me now. Momma lets Dakota out to do the pee pee in the yard and Hawkeye into the garage to pee pee in his man box and puts the kittens to sleep in the crate so they don't get into trouble. It is now time for Momma to bed me down in my kitty play yard. Momma will notice me now! Look at me Momma! Momma goes to the cushion and touches something on it, and gets a very puzzled look on her face. Momma shakes the something a bit, then feels it's feet and ears, and then it's chest. Momma lifts up the something's paw and it just falls back down onto the cushion. I look at the something and it's me the way I was before I got all young and better. I look back up at Momma, and her eyes are leaking and she is so sad. Don't be sad Momma. That isn't me anymore.
Out of the corner of my eye I see a bright light. I look towards it and squinted trying to see as my eyes adjusted. While my eyes grew accustomed I started to make out shapes of young kits and young pups with beautiful wings. Out of the light come furs that looked familiar. Yes. It was Koty and Blanca and Stovepipe and Echo, and they held out their paws to me. Behind my angel furblings I see my Catster and Dogster angel furiends there to welcome me.
I look back at Momma and touch my paw to her face. It's time for me to go be an angel now Momma. I think Momma felt and heard me because she smiled. I turn and walk to my furblings, they wrapping their wings around me to help me cross over to Rainbow Bridge ...

The Mystery Of The Anonymous Feline
An Anonymous Feline crept unawares into the Pure White Kitty Club dropping fleas on our Whitester members. It appears that the first of these fleas were dropped on or about August 4, 2006.
It so seems that the first fleas dropped was to peak our attention, as they were the same. Now fleas of a different rhyming nature are now being dropped on our Whitester members. We must most certainly solve this mystery!
Proclaims I, "So I, Doctor Icebox, shall ponder the night scratching these fleas for clues as I faithfully wait 'till morning for Inspector Mickey on our course of action."
Noted by Inspector Mickey, "As always, Dr. Icebox (I presume), you are on the case ... and you have collected the clues for us in an organized fashion.
Over many weeks, and upon the cooperation and equal determination of the Pure White Kitty Club members, we have brainstormed and gathered these hopefully correct conclusions:
one white cat in family
in a cold northern climate
an indoor kitty
a dark cat in the family.
sunburns easily
slow moving kitty
Irish or Scottish name?
is tan the same as orange?
color categories to find light tannish cats - browns, chestnuts, cinnamon, champagne, fawns and sables.
could "GREAT" mean the great lakes?
this kitty is in a state (US)
is this kitty 60 miles from one of the great lakes?
what about the Mississippi River?
COLD is an important clue
CLOCK as in tick tock or
CLOCK as in time like time is fleeting fast
music on page
*!This Kitty Is Watching Us!*
As noted by Inspector Mickey above, I have spent the weeks gathering the clues and have individually deciphered them. Here are my findings:
Riddle: think a tat white cat
Clue: think a moment about a white cat
Riddle = "think a tat white cat have you a clue who sends a rose to you?"
Clue: Think a moment about a white cat. Who did you think sent this to you?
Riddle: "think a tat white cat like you tis true i am hiding among all of you"

Riddle: "think a tat white cat i can't catch a tan but try to catch Me if you can"
Clue: A tan colored sibling. Dogs are siblings too.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat forgetting you truly cold would be put together all the rosette clues to lead to me"
Clue: Nani received this because she seemed to feel bad that she did not receive one. This cat's name has something to do with cold.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat spending my days laid back favorite pastime not spent in the sack"
Clue: This cat loves to sleep.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat beat the weather in the mad river"
Clue: It gets rather warm on the Dog Days Of Summer and a nearby river to cool off in. This river is named Mad River.
Riddle: "think a tat white tat 60 miles into the GREAT so close missing the state"
Clue: Looking in the wrong state. The Mad River runs 60 miles and joins with the Great Miami River.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat look fast where you run named of the father is the son"
Clue: The Great Miami River has a 'son' river – the Little Miami River.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat where you find the senior you will find the junior"
Clue: The Great Miami River and the Little Miami River run near to each other within the same state.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat side by side, one hit by ire running northeast to south west, is the sire"
Clue: Both rivers run northeast to southwest just miles apart. The Mad River meets with the Great Miami River.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat no red heart of desire hero's medal flash afire"
Clue: Flashing hearts that are not red. Combat wounded military personnel are given medals called a "purple" heart.
Riddle: "think a tat white cat will i ever be Cat Of The Day? only my hands of time can say"
Clue: An analog clock
Riddle: think a tat white cat life's songs not always thrills loving advice for all our beautiful girls"
Clue: A song giving advice to our girl members.
As the Pure White Kitty Club has labored hard finding the Anonymous Feline flea dropper and has been cornered by Mickey Mantle, Nani, The Drifter, and Diamond - - one last poem clue on this Labor Day for a job well done:
think a tat

Health officials want a new multi-million dollar building at Whangarei Hospital to house all its Whangarei staff on the same site and they could look at a public/private partnership to fund the project.
The Northland District Health Board (NDHB) is exploring plans to build an office block, possibly up to three storeys high and costing under $10 million, to bring the 300 staff it has working at seven sites around Whangarei onto the main hospital campus.
NDHB chief executive Nick Chamberlain said the organisation leases 4,700sq m of mainly office space in Whangarei at a considerable cost to the organisation and a review of its office requirements has been done, with off-site leasing options seriously considered.
But, rather than continue to lease extra space in Whangarei, the review recommends NDHB develops a business case to build an office block on Whangarei Hospital campus.
"Development of an on-campus building offers a number of strategic benefits over off-campus options.
"Some 300 staff are currently scattered across Whangarei posing logistical problems and additional travel to and from the hospital.
It is possible that some staff will remain in other premises but they will be a small minority," Dr Chamberlain said.
There is increasing pressure for office space at the hospital, as buildings are demolished and the site is re-developed.
The demolition of Norton House to make way for the new mental health acute inpatient unit exacerbated the situation, and the pending demolition of wards 8 and 9 to make way for a new maternity unit adds more pressure.
Dr Chamberlain said the development of an on-campus facility is expected to take two years, with initial analysis of the preferred options indicating significant savings.
He said various options were available in terms of how they finance a new building including entering into a public private partnership deal, where a private sector partner funds and builds and the NDHB is the tenant, and sale and lease back where the NDHB pays for construction, sells the building to a third party and remains as the tenant.
Dr Chamberlain said there were already precedents for such plans with Waitemata DHB using sale and lease when it built its new administration block.
"In order to preserve our scarce capital funds we will most certainly be looking at options that help us achieve this," he said. "The new building is not part of the hospital, but rather a building that will house auxiliary services such as public health, community mental health, administration and clinical services."

Street Food with a Chef's Twist
Big Truck Tacos started with the dream of a rolling kitchen serving Mexican street food with a chef's twist. We started with one truck and a small brick and mortar restaurant. The response to our little project forced us to quickly add more kitchen space and two more trucks to keep up with the demand. In our second year, Big Truck was voted America's Favorite Food Truck in a nationwide contest on Food Network.
Combining premium ingredients with a chef's vision of Mexican food has created a restaurant that is known the world over. It's no wonder we have over 35,000 fans on Facebook and a loyal following on 23rd Street... We look forward to seeing you soon!

"Shake It Up's" Zendaya is enjoying her "Dancing with the Stars" experience and here, in her second blog, exclusive to AccessHollywood.com , she shares details from behind the scenes, while preparing for Week 2 of the show with her partner, Valentin Chmerkovskiy.
Hi Access Hollywood readers and all my ZSwaggers!
Last week's premiere was an amazing experience. I still can't believe we topped the leaderboard with our first dance! I love performing and being on stage, but I was so nervous to perform live. I haven't felt those nerves in so long. It was crazy and exciting.
Now it's Week 2 and I feel like I have a lot to prove. We are dancing the Jive! The dance is so quick and full of lots of spins and fast foot movement. I've fallen so many times I've lost count. (Thanks Mom for catching it on video!)
WATCH IT NOW: Zendaya On Her Early DWTS Success & Moving From Hip-Hop To Ballroom
I think contemporary was a great dance to begin with because it allowed me to break hold and relax a little, but the jive is definitely a reality check! This dance is so detailed and I really have to watch my posture. Good thing I have the posture police (Val) as my partner!!!
Val has been such a great mentor. He's a strict teacher, which is exactly what I wanted. I need someone who pushes me to be my very best and believe me, he's been pushing me!
PHOTOS: 'Dancing's' Val Chmerkovskiy
On top of rehearsal and school, Val and I also took a break to spend some time with kids at Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) and also went to the Kids' Choice Awards. Thankfully we didn't get slimed. It has been an exhausting and busy week, but it's so worth it!

[11 June 2009]
Chicago Tribune (MCT)
Fox has made official the news that Entertainment Weekly broke on Monday: Katee Sackhoff, who's best known for playing Kara "Starbuck" Thrace on "Battlestar Galactica," is joining the cast of "24."
When the Fox thriller returns, Sackhoff will play data analyst Dana Walsh, who works at the brand new CounterTerrorism Unit (CTU) in New York City. According to the EW story, her character will be involved with Cole Ortiz, the field operations leader played by Freddie Prinze Jr.
Other cast members of the show's eighth season, which kicks off Jan. 17, include Mykelti Williamson, John Boyd, Chris Diamantopoulos and Jennifer Westfeldt. Returning cast members include Cherry Jones (as President Allison Taylor), Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe) and Annie Wersching (Renee Walker). "Slumdog Millionaire" star Anil Kapoor will make his American television debut as a Middle Eastern leader in the U.S. on a peace mission.
Those are the facts. Now for my opinions.
In this uncertain environment, it's not a bad thing for an actor to have a steady gig like this. (Someone on my Twitter feed joked about being happy for all of Sunday's Tony winners but predicted we'd see most of them as supporting characters on police procedurals soon.) But I must pronounce myself a little wary of seeing Sackhoff on "24." And as a "data analyst"? And her character is involved with Freddie Prinze Jr.?
This is Starbuck we're talking about!
I hope the role gives Sackhoff a chance to explore what she's capable of. Sackhoff had the role of a lifetime as the headstrong fighter pilot on "Battlestar Galactica," and I can't help but wonder if the "24" part will be a particularly limited role.
Not that there haven't been memorable supporting characters on "24," but, in the final analysis, the show is mostly about Kiefer Sutherland's character, Jack Bauer. And even for him, action and tension usually take priority over emotional developments.
If, in Season 8, we see Sackhoff sitting behind a computer terminal, barking out computer-related gibberish and sparring with other tech nerds such as Chloe, I'll be disappointed.
For all I know, they've got a brilliant, challenging, emotionally gut-wrenching arc planned for Sackhoff's character. I hope so.
Because this is Starbuck we're talking about!

In your quest to fix
your marriage,
you may encounter resistance...from your spouse!
Your spouse may dwell
on the 101
reasons why "this just won't work for us" and blame you for everyone.
Or, your spouse may be
"checked-out" of the marriage and not care about your efforts to
improve the situation or be willing to extend any effort of their own.
This, by far, is the
most common
question people ask me: "How do I get my spouse to change? How do I fix
marriage when my spouse won't change?"
Why would your spouse
resist change
in your marriage and what should you do about it?
There's a deep-seated
belief in our
culture that people resist change, no matter what. But is this true? Do
really want things to remain status quo? Do we really not want things
change? If you look closely at human nature, it's not change itself we
it's change that's IMPOSED UPON US.
Think about it. We
have no problem
with change that WE INITIATE. But when we feel forced or manipulated to
then we resist with all our might.
Your spouse may not be
willing to
change for the sake of your marriage right now, but that's not because
spouse doesn't want to fix the marriage. Everyone wants a great
marriage. It's
because if they're going to change, they want the change to be THEIR
I promise you; your
spouse will
change when they're ready to change and not one second before. And the
more you
push them, urge them, nudge them, ask them, scream at them, or beg
them, the
LESS LIKELY they are to change. I know it's hard to wait, but you have
to let
it come from them.
It's possible someone
could INSPIRE
your spouse to change, but the person LEAST LIKELY to be the
inspiration is
YOU. It's sad but true. A complete stranger is more likely to get
through to
your spouse than you are. A chance experience or encounter is more
likely to
shake up your spouse than anything YOU could say.
Mary Ellen (name
changed) registered
the Marriage Fitness Tele Boot Camp. She knew she had to make changes
joined the program with a genuine interest to fix her marriage. She
wanted Tom
(her husband) to be part of the process, but he wasn't willing to join
her. She
had been asking him to go with her to get help for over a year. But Tom
consistently refused.
I spoke with Mary
Ellen during the
boot camp and convinced her to back-off of Tom and just let him be for
a while.
I counseled her to make some changes that created a more positive
energy in
their relationship. When the time was right, I suggested that Mary
Ellen ask
Tom is he would be willing to speak with ME during one of the Q and A
teleconferences. Mary Ellen's timing was good. Tom agreed.
Within 7 minutes of my
with Tom he agreed to join Mary Ellen in the program. Mary Ellen
switched from
the Lone Ranger Track to the Duo Track.
Why was I able to get
Tom to agree
to something in 7 minutes that Mary Ellen couldn't get him to do in
over a
year? It's true I know how to fix marriages, but there were 2 other
1. For the first time
in over a
year, Mary Ellen backed-off far enough so that Tom had the space to
make his
own choice.
2. The inspiration
came from someone
other than his wife. Now HE wanted to know how to fix the marriage too.
Your effort to change
your spouse is
probably COUNTERproductive. The chances are good that you're "in the
way." You need to get out of the way and create the space for your
to CHOOSE to change. That's the only way it'll ever happen.
I can't tell you how
many times a
spouse will say to me that their husband/wife changed for a few days,
but then
returned to their old ways. That's because they never really decided to
They were pressured. They were manipulated. And so it didn't stick.
If you tell your
spouse what to do;
it's a challenge. If THEY decide to do it; it's a great idea. YOU HAVE
IT COME FROM THEM. That's the only way it'll make a difference long
term in
your marriage.
Now you're probably
"Makes sense, but isn't there anything I can do to encourage my
choice?" YES there is! YOU CAN BE AN INSPIRING EXAMPLE and let your
see how the choices YOU'RE making impact how YOU feel about yourself
and your
Resist the urge to
believe that your
marriage won't be fixed until your spouse "gets with the program."
The love YOU feel is much more a result of what YOU DO for your
marriage than
what your spouse does for it.
We tend to think that the love in our marriage
is in our spouse's hands. But
it's not. Love is a verb. And if we do it - if we love - then we feel
love. THE
Consider the love you
feel for your
children. Is it because of everything they do for you? Is it because
such angels? Of course not. The love you feel for your children is a
result of
what YOU DO FOR THEM. The love you feel in your marriage is a result of
YOU DO too.
Furthermore, there's
no better way
to inspire your spouse to make the choice to change than to make that
It happens quite often
that one
spouse will register for the Marriage Fitness Tele-Boot Camp in the
Lone Ranger
Track and then half way through the program they will switch to the Duo
which is designed for couples participating TOGETHER. What caused their
to change their mind? Simple. 2 things. First, they learned to create a
in their relationship for their spouse to make a choice to change.
Second, they
showed their spouse, through their EXAMPLE, how to make that choice and
impact it could have on their marriage.
Very often one spouse
will schedule
private sessions with me and ask if it makes sense for them to be
alone. The answer is ABSOLUTELY yes! One spouse can make more than a
difference in a marriage. And that difference is exactly what will get
other spouse to open up to getting advice too. As the saying goes: "You
can lead me a mile, but you can't push me an inch."
So, bottom line - as
Mahatma Gandhi
said, "You must be the change you wish to see." It's YOU changing
that will have the greatest impact on YOUR EXPERIENCE of your marriage
AND it's
YOU changing that will be the single most important thing you
can do to
motivate your spouse to change.

Steamboat Springs The weather made it feel a little like spring, but that didn't stop the members of the Steamboat Springs High School cross country team from excelling at the winter sport they love.
"The temperatures soared, and the day felt like it was late March, not the first day in February," coach Brian Tate said.
But the warm weather didn't seem to impact Austin Ross or Korie Steitz, who led the Sailors in the 5-kilometer cross country race. The event was held at the Gold Run Nordic Center near Breckenridge.
Ross placed third in the boys' race behind winner Simi Hamilton (15:12) of Aspen and Summit's Matt Dayton (15:25), who was the runner-up. Ross' time of 15:31 highlighted the local finishes. Steamboat's Marty Smith finished sixth (15:46), Mike Gleason was seventh (16:12), Justin Krause was 14th (17:12) and Keegan O'Hara finished 53rd with a time of 20:31.
Haliegh Armstrong of Vail Mountain edged Steamboat's Steitz in the girls' race. Armstrong crossed the finish line with a time of 17:55 and Steitz followed at 18:08. Meredith Gilliland of Summit placed third with a time of 18:33.
"It was an awesome race," Steitz said. "I've been sick the past couple of weeks, so it was nice to get out there. It felt pretty good."
Steamboat's Lisl Pearson was 18th (21:21), Jennifer Hooper placed 20th (21:41) and Rachel Ryan took the 46th spot with a time of 27:05.
It was the Steamboat skiers' fourth race and second classic event of the season. The team has two more scheduled races. The Sailors will travel to a freestyle event in Lake County on Feb. 10 and compete in one more classic race in Vail Feb. 15.
"Our goal this season is to win a team title at the state championships," Steitz said. "I will be happy if I can finish in the top 3 as an individual."
Steitz said most of the skiers on the team also compete in Rocky Mountain Division races as well, but a few of the members compete only at the high school level.
"It's been a lot more fun having those girls on the team," Steitz said. "It shakes things up a bit and we all have a good time together."
Following the regular season, the skiers will begin to prepare for the state meet, which will be held Feb 21-22 at the Beaver Creek Ski Area.
Steitz said the intensity of the team's workout pace has increased in recent weeks because of the state meet (and also the Junior Olympics for the RMD racers) and she expects that trend to continue.
She said this is the point of the season where teams have to pick it up a bit if they want to be in the state title hunt.

Another Nigerian journalist dies in strife-torn Jos
Augustine Sindyi, a veteran photographer for the state-owned weekly Standard newspaper in Plateau State, was walking home from work on Christmas Eve when a nearby bomb explosion killed him instantly. Sindyi resided in a busy Nigerian neighborhood near the local government offices in the center of Jos. The assailants targeted an area that would receive immeasurable damage where Sindyi happened to live, state radio reporter Murtala Sani, told me.

In trying to convert a Stata 12 data set to excel using StatTransfer, i got the message that the Stata 12 format is not supported.
Does anyone (e.g., Steve Dubnoff) know what plans there are for updating StatTransfer?
Also, an easy work around is to use the saveoldfeature and convert.
