Mar 11, 2010 at 3:42 pm #1256370
New recipe I came up with today and posted on the website, over on Trail Cooking. I developed it for a new food find, dry cream of mushroom soup mix.
Kathleen might want to skip this mushroom fest ;-)
Trashy Souper Rice
* 1 c instant rice
* 1⁄4 c freeze dried mushrooms, crumbled
* 3 T dry cream of mushroom soup mix
* 1 T dry milk
* 1 T dried chives
* 1⁄4 t ground black pepper
* 2 T crushed potato chips
* 1 T olive oil (1 packet)
* 1 1⁄4 c water
At home pack all the dry ingredients except for the potato chips in a sandwich or quarter freezer bag. Tuck the crushed potato chips in a small zip top bag, with the packet of olive oil.
In camp:
FBC method:
Add the oil and near boiling water to the quart freezer bag. Stir well, seal tightly and put in a FBC cozy for 15 minutes. Stir well and top with the potato chips.
Insulated mug method:
Add the dry ingredients, oil and the boiling water to your insulated mug. Stir well, cover tightly and let sit for 15 minutes. Stir well and top with the potato chips.
One pot method:
Bring the water and oil to a boil, add in the dry ingredients. Take off the stove, cover tightly and let sit for 10 minutes. Stir well and top with the potato chips. In cool temperatures use a pot cozy.

Oh, gag, and pffft! I've heard pregnant people start doing really weird things right before they deliver. This proves it.
Think about it, Sarah. By eating that soup you're feeding fungus to your poor, unborn child who has no advocate but me. Hang in there, little one! When you're old enough to sit in a high chair you can start tossing it all on the floor and walls!Mar 11, 2010 at 8:59 pm #1585477

Explosion Class 1
Definition - What does Explosion Class 1 mean?
An explosion class 1 refers a location in which flammable gases or vapors are or may be present in the air in sufficient quantities to produce an explosive gas atmosphere or ignitable mixtures.
Safeopedia explains Explosion Class 1
Single or multiple element mixtures that are in a gaseous state under normal atmospheric conditions, such as hydrogen or methane vapor, which are normally flashed off from a liquid under normal atmospheric conditions, like gasoline, are classic examples of an explosion class 1 location.
Explosion class 1 locations are further sub divided in divisions based on the probability of presence of explosive gas atmosphere in the location. The division defines the probability of the presence of an explosive or ignitable mixture.
- Division 1 - a gaseous, explosive or ignitable mixture is present continuously, intermittently, or periodically
- Division 2 - a gaseous, explosive or ignitable mixture is present only for a short period of time

British taxpayers are set to pay $800m (£500m) in fines as a result of Royal Bank of Scotland traders' involvement in the Libor interest rate fixing scandal - with nearly all of the money going to the United States.
American watchdogs are set to hit RBS with as much as four-fifths of the total penalty as it becomes the third bank to settle over its traders' role in the scandal.
The remaining £100m will come from the Financial Services Authority (FSA), which will eventually be returned to UK Government coffers. But people close to the talks told The Independent the figure hadn't been finalised on the American side and could still go higher.
MPs tonight warned that the extent of the payouts would infuriate the public after taxpayers stepped in to rescue the bank with a £45bn bailout four years ago. It will also be a fresh blow to attempts by Stephen Hester, the bank's chief executive officer, to rebuild its reputation – and to restore its financial health to a point where the public stake can be sold.
RBS is 81 per cent-owned by the Government, which means the taxpayer will effectively foot the bill for its fine, although the bank is expected to attempt to head off protests by cutting its investment bankers' bonus pool. Senior managers may also see some of their bonuses "clawed back".
John Hourican, the head of the investment bank, is expected to pay with his job. He is highly unlikely to face any criticism from regulators over the affair, not least because he was not aware of the traders' activities. But the bank is thought to feel that it must show it takes the misconduct of its traders seriously and as a result Mr Hourican, the overall head of the business, will carry the can.
It is understood that RBS bosses are keen to avoid any repeat of what happened at Barclays, where the Libor storm ultimately cost the jobs of chief executive Bob Diamond and chairman Marcus Agius.
RBS nearly collapsed during the financial crisis, after it spent billions on the ill-advised acquisition of Dutch Bank ABN Amro until the intervention by the last Government.
MPs expressed dismay over the looming payment and warned over the new damage it would inflict on the bank's reputation, despite the Libor scandal dating back to Fred Goodwin's stewardship.
Andrea Leadsom, a Conservative member of the Treasury select committee, said: "All MPs receive communications from constituents angry that not only has the bank been bailed out, but that the taxpayer is effectively covering the cost of fines for wrongdoing. It compounds the anger people have about the conduct of the bank."
Teresa Pearce, a Labour member, said: "We hold an enormous number of shares in that bank which ultimately need to be sold. If its reputation is that there were things going on that shouldn't have been - and other things may still be going on - then the value of those shares will plummet. We need to know the money used to prop it up was well spent."
Stephen Williams, the chairman of the Liberal Democrat Treasury committee, said: "It's the shareholders that are suffering – in this case RBS is 80 per cent owned by the people. It is a direct hit on the value of the bank which will eventually be returned to taxpayer."
The fine will take the total paid by British banks to US regulators - and therefore US taxpayers in the last year - to more than $3bn. HSBC paid $1.5bn to settle charges that it was used as a conduit from drug money and sanctions busting.
Standard Chartered, which is headquartered in London but mainly operates in Asia, paid $667m to various regulators in the US to settle charges of dealings with Iran while Barclays paid $450m over its part in the Libor fixing affair.
The Labour MP John Mann, a vociferous critic of the major banks, said: "The key thing is that people are held to account – we need to stop this criminal fraudulent behaviour. If American regulators can take criminal action for fraud, why aren't our regulators taking criminal action as well?"

Audi shows it is serious about weight loss - Next gen 2015 Audi Q7 to weigh 800 pounds less
The current Audi Q7 is a solid SUV but also pretty heavy with the diesel and V8 (which has now been replaced with a lighter 3.0 TFSI) versions coming in at about 5500 pounds. Audi has shown a lot of emphasis on as of late on lightweight materials showing they are very aware their vehicles used to be the heaviest in the segment. That is changing and Audi is quite serious about it going so far as to shave 800 pound from the Q7 for the next generation Q7 model.
That means a curb weight somewhere around the 4700 pound range. That would undercut the current BMW X5, Mercedes ML, and Porsche Cayenne.
It definitely is nice to see Audi put an emphasis on making its models lighter and not just adding power to mask it (like BMW as of late). Expect the new Q7 in 2015.

Favorite British Words Of The Day
From M-W: "Although Merriam-Webster is a dictionary of American English, it contains a range of words rarely heard outside Britain. Here are some of our favourites."
PRAT: a stupid or foolish person
"Everyone's feeling a bit summery this morning, with a few rays breaking out over Britain and some of you lot daring to break the 'anyone who wears sunglasses in April is a prat' rule that we just made up." – 3am.co.uk, April 6, 2011
TWEE: affectedly or excessively dainty, delicate, cute, or quaint
"Micmacs [is a] ramshackle and unbearably twee French comedy." – Chris Tookey, Daily Mail Online, February 26, 2010
(Twee + Prat = Twat, a quaint idiot? - C.)
KNACKERED: tired, exhausted
"Went for a 4 miler and then when I got back from work we took the kids swimming. Nice and knackered now." – blog post at SoreLimbs.co.uk, January 18, 2011
JIGGERY-POKERY: dishonest or suspicious activity; nonsense
"[Greece] flouted European Union rules on the limits to budget deficits; its national accounts were a moussaka of minced statistics, topped with a cheesy sauce of jiggery-pokery." – Jeff Randall, The Telegraph, May 20, 2010
PLONK: cheap or inferior wine
"Fine diners are drinking premier cru wines at plonk prices as a bring-your-own booze revolution gathers pace in Britain's best restaurants." – Robert Booth, The Guardian, June 20, 2010
CHUNTER: to talk in a low inarticulate way: mutter
"Tell me about it. I was chuntering on last night about *padded* training bras." – michlan on Twitter, April 13, 2011
WHINGE: to complain fretfully: whine
"I shall have one pint of beer less every time I'm in the pub, and I might occasionally whinge about the rises in the cost of living outstripping my wages." – blog post on A Dull Day at Work, April 2, 2011
GORMLESS: lacking intelligence: stupid
"Gormless, unhelpful and poorly trained shop staff create merry hell for customers who are simply exercising their legal rights to a repair, refund or replacement." – Sam Dunn, Two Pennies Worth blog, March 22, 2011
BOFFIN: a scientific expert and especially one involved in technological research
"Brain boffins at University College London have made a major breakthrough in the ongoing effort to bridge the gap between man and machine." – Rik Myslewski, The Register, April 11, 2011
PUKKA: genuine, authentic; first-class
"... the record-breaking Sri Lankan [cricket player] has always shown himself a pukka gent...." – William Langley, The Telegraph, July 24, 2010

Love your definition of twat, will start using it. I had heard some of these words thanks to the Scots I work with, but still, the one that makes me chuckle everytime when I hear it is "The cheek of that man!" or something like that. Almost got into trouble when my boss was furious and said it.ReplyDelete
Cheeky monkey. Stop lookin' at me bum!ReplyDelete
I've heard of "whinge" before. I thought I had heard of "knackered" before too, but I thought that it meant drunk instead of tired.ReplyDelete
"Twat-a quaint idiot"--haha! :-D
Hubby is British and I went to grad school there and lived there almost 10 years so I hadn't thought about it, but we use most of these all the time. Some words just get lost I guess. For instance, I first had kids there, the ads didn't call them diapers, the store didn't, the package or other people didn't, so they were never diapers, it became a foreign word. When I had my last kid here we still used the British word, I'd tell the boys what to go get me and they didn't know what diapers were until they heard it in school. Ok rambling example but that's how we're bilingual in our house today-English and American.ReplyDelete

Actually, Carey, it's "Cor Blimey" with a C. I always liked it when The Beatles said they were "well chuffed", which means to be pleased.ReplyDelete
Not a singular word, but an expression that I'd heard, and enjoyed all the more when I found out where it originated.ReplyDelete
"Gordon Bennett" - an expression of surprise, contempt, outrage, disgust, frustration.
And now for the origin story:
He has the unenviable record, as bestowed by the Guinness Book of World Records, of the 'Greatest Engagement Faux Pas', for the manner in which his engagement to the socialite Caroline May was broken off in 1877.
It is reported that at the 1877 New Year's party held by his fiancee's father, he became so drunk that he mistook the fireplace for a toilet and urinated in it in front of his hosts and their guests.
- BludgerMay 24, 2011 at 10:45 PM
Plonk was originally Australian, but it is such a good word it can stay.ReplyDelete
Speaking of the Aussie vernacular, we might say 'root' for sexual intercourse. Similar to 'screw' as a verb and noun. The caption possibilities of the FPOTD become greatly expanded if you accept 'root' as a word for sex...
One true Briticism I like, but don't use, is pear-shaped. As in when things go wrong, they go pear shaped.
i like "loo" hahahaReplyDelete

Colorado coaches are expected to sign nine defensive linemen on national signing day, restocking the front end of the defense with a plethora of talent.
CU has just six scholarship defensive linemen on the roster heading into spring ball and those numbers are what led to the large group in this recruiting class.
Senior-to-be Will Pericak is easily the most experienced player on the Buffs' defensive line in 2012. He has been a big contributor since his freshman season in 2009 following a redshirt year and a move from tight end.
Pericak has played inside and out during his career. Only three players made more tackles than he did in 2011 when he finished with 64 total stops in 13 games. Pericak was arrested in January for allegedly lighting a trashcan on fire inside a Boulder bar. Assuming he gets into no further trouble, he should be a mainstay once again in the fall.
Kirk Poston, a third-year sophomore who finished last season as Pericak's backup at left defensive end, will have to step up his game this year to avoid being passed by several talented freshmen.
Two big men with limited experience return in the middle of the line for CU. Nate Bonsu has been plagued by injuries in his two years in the program and Erich Richter is a converted offensive lineman, who could be a decent run-stuffing option assuming he continues to improve. He would be expected to earn most of his playing time early in the season in 2012. If he continues to earn it as the season progresses and younger players learn, that would be a bonus.
Junio Chidera Uzo-Diribe had a difficult sophomore season in 2011 and will be looking to rebound beginning with spring ball. He played in all 13 games and made just 18 tackles with 51/2 sacks.
Uzo-Diribe will likely have to share time with sophomore Juda Parker next fall unless coaches can get them on the field at the same time. Parker played in nine games and made just six total tackles as a true freshman, but he showed flashes that made him a sought-after recruit a year ago.
Walk-ons Andre Nichols, Kyle Koch and John Tuso also will compete in the spring if they stick with the program.
The star recruit in the class of nine is up for debate among CU fans. We expect him to be defensive end Kisima Jagne, a 6-foot-5, 230-pound product of Chandler, Ariz. Jagne has all the tools and talent to be an immediate contributor and to have some of the veterans worried about their playing time.
De'Jon Wilson a defensive end from Woodson High School in Washington D.C., also could earn early playing time. His high school coach describes him as "an animal."
Samson Kafovalu is the third defensive end recruit we expect to challenge for early playing time. Kafovalu is a product of Riverside, Calif., and also has the body for immediate action at 6-3, 240.
At least three recruits could earn immediate playing time on the interior of the CU defense because of the lack of depth there.
Many believe Justin Solis, a 6-3, 300-pounder from Westlake Village, Calif., is the prize recruit in the middle. He is very good, but he might need time to get in shape for college ball. We believe Josh Tupou, a 6-4, 295-pound prospect from Buena Park, Calif., is more likely to make an immediate impact for the Buffs.
The defensive linemen we believe might be the biggest surprise of the class is Tyler Henington from Mullen High School in Denver. CU coaches are said to view him as a bigger version of former Buff Curtis Cunningham, who always played with heart and passion.
Those six players are the best in this class on the defensive line, but the class also includes defensive end John Stuart, a teammate of Solis' at Westlake Village, and 260-pound defensive tackle Kory Rasmussen from Honolulu, who will likely redshirt and gain weight and strength. However, both are good players who shouldn't be discounted.
The final member of the class on the defensive line is Derek McCartney, the grandson of former CU legendary coach Bill McCartney.
Derek McCartney is considered a bit of a project, though he dominated at the Class 2A level in Colorado for Faith Christian High School.
McCartney will grayshirt next fall and join the program in January 2013 at defensive end.

In a recent The Hill piece on the REAL ID debate in New Hampshire, I wrote about the complaint against federal legislators who cease representing their states in Washington, D.C., and start representing Washington, D.C., in their states.
That seems to be happening in New Mexico, where four of five members of the congressional delegation are at best standing by worrying about a Department of Homeland Security attack on their state. At worst, they are lobbying the state legislature to cede authority over driver licensing to the federal government.
The DHS is pushing New Mexico toward compliance with REAL ID, the national ID law, by saying that it will not offer another extension of the deadline for compliance. The statutory deadline passed seven years ago and no state is in compliance. No state will be in 2016. The national ID law is as unworkable as it is weak as a security tool.

|[jira] Updated: (DERBY-1180) Add vacuous implementations of missing JDBC4 methods
|Fri, 21 Apr 2006 12:29:06 GMT
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1180?page=all ] Kristian Waagan updated DERBY-1180: ----------------------------------- Attachment: derby-1180-1a-embedded.diff derby-1180-1a-embedded.stat 'derby-1180-1a-embedded.diff' addresses missing JDBC4 signatures on the embedded side. There are still 3 missing signatures reported by jdbc4/VerifySignatures.junit, but these will go away when another bug is fixed (don't know Jira number). Tests have been written for most of the methods added, except for the Clob/Blob methods and the Brokered* classes. All tests will be submitted with the patch for the network client side. The tests I do have run cleanly, and since all these methods throw not implemented, I think it is okay to commit this patch before the tests are in place. Adding the tests now will cause errors when running with DerbyNetClient. Rick's patches ('bug1180_embeddedStarter.diff' and 'bug1180_1.diff') have either been incorporated into this patch or is committed elsewhere (DERBY-940?). There are no tests for the getParameterMetaData-methods, so I created DERBY-1242 to track this. Suite jdbc40 ran without failures. Patch ready for review/commit. > Add vacuous implementations of missing JDBC4 methods > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-1180 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1180 > Project: Derby > Type: New Feature > Components: JDBC > Versions: 10.2.0.0 > Reporter: Rick Hillegas > Assignee: Kristian Waagan > Attachments: bug1180_1.diff, bug1180_embeddedStarter.diff, derby-1180-1a-embedded.diff, derby-1180-1a-embedded.stat > > If you run the VerifySignatures test, you will see a lot of JDBC4 methods which don't appear in our implementation yet. We need to add vacuous implementations for these methods which raise SQLFeatureNotSupportedExceptions. Most of these methods won't need any more attention because they refer to features (like xml and national strings) which we don't support. We will open additional JIRAs for the methods which need non-vacuous implementations. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

James Marsh's determinedly downbeat tale, set in 1993 during the Northern Ireland peace process, centres on Colette (Andrea Riseborough, excellent), an inept IRA terrorist who is captured by MI5 after bungling a London Tube bombing.
Clive Owen's earnest agent offers her a stark choice: face a long prison sentence or return to Belfast and snitch on her brothers (Domhnall Gleeson and Aidan Gillen). She plumps for the latter as she has a young son to care for. A tense, intelligent political thriller about the Troubles from the director of Man on Wire.

The charges stem from an incident on March 4, 2008, when his girlfriend, Rasheedah Watley, accused the receiver of hitting her in the mouth and grabbing her neck during a confrontation at Marshall's downtown condo.
"It's been almost over a year and a half and I'm just happy that now, legally and emotionally we can move forward and hopefully get past this thing," Marshall told reporters outside the courtroom. "For me, I'm excited about the opportunity just to start over. It's a new life almost."
The news is also welcome relief for the Broncos, who open up their preseason schedule tonight in San Francisco.
Marshall, who has not participated in practice since Aug. 2, is expected to return to Denver and continue to rehab his surgically repaired hip - no word yet on a possible return date.

Lucha VillaView in iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
Mexico's most famous ranchera singer, Lucha Villa earned more notice than Lola Beltran thanks to a long, successful film career in addition to her recording work. Born in the Chihuahua state town of Ciudad Camargo in the mid-'30s, young Luz Elena Bejarano entered a number of talent contests and was dubbed Lucha Villa by television producer Luis Dillon (the name is a contraction of Pancho Villa and the Chihuahua village where he spent time). Her biggest early hit was a version of the José Alfredo Jiménez standard "Media Vuelta," and after several minor film roles, she became a star with the 1965 cockfighting feature El Gallo de Oro. As with her music, Villa specialized in rural and ranchera pictures, a genre especially connected to American audiences familiar with Westerns. During the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, she recorded dozens of albums and appeared in dozens of pictures, including the 1973 screwball comedy Mecánica Nacional, which won the Ariel award (Mexico's version of the Oscar). She also recorded songbook tributes to Jiménez and Juan Gabriel, and was saluted herself by Gabriel for his 1996 Las Tres Señoras (with Lola Beltran and Amalia Mendoza). Villa continued performing even after suffering a heart attack during surgery in 1997. ~ John Bush

BOX 45436 DALLAS, TX 75245Rogers won't run again; fifesBy DANA STELL Staff writer A second candidate Friday filed for the April 6 City Council race, while another incumbent announced he would not seek reelection. Edward Sciantarelii, a local dentist, will run for the District 4 seat to be left vacant by two-term incumbent Joe Rogers. "I'm not going to run," Rogers said Friday afternoon. "I said at the onset that if I was fortunate enough to serve six years, I thought that was enough and I want to stick to that. "I have a new Job now and I need to dedicate my time to that," Rogers continued. "And I need to re-acquaint myself with my wife." Rogers was named principal of Smithson Valley High School last summer. District 4 incumbent O.A. Stratemann Jr. could not run again because he does not live in that district. Former mayor George Erben filed for that seat on Feb. ll. Rogers said of his service on the Council that he is most proud of the way the city has tried to control its growth. "And we have made forward motion on our parks — in preserving lands Park," he said. Rogers pointed out that the police department has grown and the city has finally come up with a good pay schedule, which gives employees an incentive to stay with the city. The former high school band director said he hopes to have some input on the upcoming city bond issue and is "so proud I could serve the people who elected me." Sciantarelii, 35, said he wants to maintain the quality of life available in New Braunfels. "I've been here nine years and have been involved in quite a few different organizations," he said. "I've watched New Braunfels grow and grow and I'm concerned about the type of growth we're having." Sciantarelii said business growth is important to a city's economy, but he said he wants to preserve the quality of New Braunfels. One of Sciantarelii's main concerns is the preservation of water. ''I'm concerned about the pumping of the Edwards water," he said. ''If you don't have water, you're up a creek, so to speak — a dry creek. We've got to do something to increase our re-charge." The local dentist said he believes the time is right for the city's proposed bond issue. "I think the bond issue is going to be a very important thing to come up," he said. "It's needed, there's no question about that. We need to raise taxes, you have to provide services as the city grows." Sciantarelii is a Corpus Christi native. He graduated from the University of Texas in 1971 and from UT Dental school in 1975. During a nine-month practice in San Marcos, he began practicing here with Dr. Mitchell Sacco. He moved here in 1976. Candidates may file in the city secretary's office in city hall during business hours until March 6. Haydon to get artificial heart LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Murray P. Haydon, a retired autoworker and avid student of history, goes into the history books himself Sunday when he becomes the third human recipient of a permanent artificial heart. The experimental operation will be the second in three months performed at Humana Hospital Audubon by Dr. William C. DeVries, the only surgeon authorized to implant manmade hearts in humans. Haydon, 58, suffers from idopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, a disease that progressively has weakened and enlarged his heart muscle, leading to poor blood circulation, said his cardiologist, Dr. Jerome l^acy. The cause of Haydon's illness, diagnosed in 1981 and treated four years with medication, is unknown. His heart began deteriorating rapidly in January and he has lost 20 to 25 pounds in the past three weeks, Lacy said. Dr. Allan M. lansing, medical director of the Humana Heart Institute International, said Haydon was the best implant patient he had seen. "I feel much more confident than I did with Mr. Schroeder," he said, referring to Humana's first artificial heart patient. "I have a good feeling about this patient and I believe Dr. DeVries does also." Humana spokesmen had said that Haydon would live Just ''a matter of days" without the implant. But at a news conference Saturday evening, Lansing said: "It is possible he might live two or three weeks as he is now. He would be unlikely to get out of hospital... until he died." Lansing also said he believes Haydon's experience with the manmade heart would be a more adequate test of the research project than the first two patients, because he has not suffered a heart attack and his other organs are healthy. The grandfather of five, including a grandson born Friday at Audubon, is bedridden and extremely weak. Haydon spent a quiet Saturday. He was taken in a wheelchair to see his new grandson. "He was all excited," said Bob Irvine, Humana's director of public relations. He was scheduled to be wheeled into the operating room about 6:30See HEART, Page IZA Classy crowd New Braunfels High students, some dad in jackets and ties, applaud during player in troductions at Friday's New Braunfels Canyon basketball shootout.

See LEVIN, Page IZA Child advocate program touted to help victims of sexual abuse A child advocacy program will begin soon in Comal County, one result of a meeting Saturday to iron out differences among those who work on child abuse cases. The Comal County Child Welfare Board will be looking for volunteers who wish to receive training to become child advocates. "In some child abuse cases where the parents are so emotionally involved in the situation, the child needs someone there just for him," Cindy Reman, president of the child welfare board, explained. Reman called the meeting to work out differences between ail the people concerned in child abuse cases. Those attending included District Attorney Bill Schroeder, County Attorney Bill Reimer, New Braunfels detective Ray Douglas, sheriff's investigator Dennis Koepp, Department of Human Resources caseworkers, their supervisor and the DHR attorney, and two local physicians Dr. Timothy Owens and Dr. Kenneth Teufel. Reimer said the child advocate has a legal status if appointed by the court to represent the child's interest in court. But many times abuse cases are resolved without going to court. The child advocate is not an investigator, but would establish a relationship with the child and the family, visit the home, explain court procedures to the child and possibly offer the court another perspective that the child may not feel comfortable telling a caseworker or police. "We need the child advocate program to be a community kind of thing," Owens said. "We need men and women from every part of town, every ethnic background, every class to make this work " The first child advocate program was in Philadelphia, Owens said Bexar County has just recently begun one and a few other counties in Texas have such programs The child welfare board plans to get the guidelines already written from Hie existing programs to help them set this one up, Reman said "We all bring to each case the normal pressures that each agency has to contend with, case loads, policies, priorities, etc., that keep us from being able to totally concentrate on the child," Owens said. "The child advocate would not represent any particular agency nor any particular familial relationship," Reman said Another topic covered in the meeting was the offer by Sheriff Walter Fellers to use a room in the new jail to videotape victims of child sexual abuse both rn civil and criminal cases. The room would be a conference room in the complex of offices used by mvestigators at the front of the jail building. Reimer had offerd to use part of his hot-check fund money to buy a two-way mirror so that the videotaping equipment and operator would be in a separate room. He also offered to decorate the room so that it looked See VIDEOTi ;

I am a non-practicing LCSW . . . my professional life is on hiatus while I raise my two young sons; both of whom went through early intervention for autism spectrum issues. Every event, CEU or otherwise, that I attend serves the dual purpose of stimulating my intellectual curiosity and, hopefully, to provide me with new insight or tools to help my boys. Regarding this seminar specifically, I have one son who naturally emulates the title and the other has a more cloudy disposition. I'd like to gain some insight of the "why, and how" and bring that home to my son who struggles with happiness.

My name is Steven Marr and I hold degrees in Zoology and Art. I have worked as a food microbiologist and food chemist for the last fifteen years. I am now in transition. I am serving as the primary caregiver for my 82 year old mother while developing my interests in art and writing. I suffer from anxiety disorder stemming from a childhood trauma making it difficult to exhibit my art work. I heard Dr. Keltner speak at the Central Library and I have read his book. I am intrigued by his premises and would like to put them in action.
I have had some recent successes. I have had five exhibitions of my art this year, most of them juried exhibitions. I also just received a very nice rejection e-mail from the editor of "Parabola" magazine. He said my writing was insightful and well written but, because of the large number of submissions for the Fall Quarterly issue, my piece did not make the cut. He invited me to submit in the future.
Besides pursuing my interests in art and writing, I am researching the neuropsychology of creativity. To this end I have interviewed with Dr. Dahlia W. Zaidel, the author of "Neuropsychology of Art."
I am looking forward to a stimulating and eventful day tomorrow.

In going through a tremendous loss, I have continued to work, to volunteer and try to make the pieces my life fit together. How to make sense of it all, find another purpose, let go of the life I had planned, make the rest of my time meaningful.
My work is also at a major Childrens Hospital taking care of very sick children,adolescents and some adults and their families. This takes its toll on the caregivers and I am hoping to bring back some ideas to offer to coworkers in cultivating some compassion with each other, deal with loss, physically and emotionally exhausting times.

Just wanted to thank Dr. Keltner for an interesting seminar. I have two questions and would like to venture them here. Is there literature on the effect of psychological abuse on vagal tone? In a similar vein is the window of opportunity, the forty per cent slice of the pie that Sonja mentioned, for willed change in the happiness quotient affected by psychological abuse?
Thanks for your attention.

THE FACTS: The Denver Nuggets overcame a sluggish start and the surprising return of Minnesota's Kevin Love to defeat the Timberwolves 101-94 in Minneapolis Wednesday night. The win for Denver spoiled the return of the Wolve's All-Star forward, who broke his right hand in training camp and was not expected back until mid-December. He finished the night with 34 points and 14 rebounds, but it was not enough and Minnesota dropped their third consecutive game, all on their home court. Danillo Gallinari led the way for Denver with 19 points while Andrew Iguodala and Ty Lawson each contributed 18 in the balanced offensive attack.
QUOTABLE: "I thought they would get a bounce with Kevin Love playing, I just didn't think they'd get that kind of a bounce. You know 16 points in the first, it caused us to scramble a lot and the rhythm of the first half we never got any rhythm. When we got good shots we didn't make them, our defensive alertness and a tentativeness to what we were supposed to do. We yelled and screamed a little bit at halftime and they did great."
-- Nuggets coach George Karl
THE STAT: Denver ranked last in the NBA in free throw percentage coming into tonight's game. But the Nuggets made 22 of 26 attempts tonight (84.6%). In a game that was decided by single-digits overcoming what has been has been a struggle was certainly a factor in their road win.
TURNING POINT: Karl's halftime speech is probably what should get credit for the turning point. Denver trailed 44-58 at the half but opened the third quarter with a 14-2 run. They didn't actually take the lead until 2:11 was remaining in the quarter but the opening run quickly got them back in control of what previously was a Minnesota controlled game. Andre Iguodala got it started with a three, scoring six in the run while Gallinari scored seven in the 4:28 stretch.
QUOTABLE II: "I didn't want to make a big deal about it. I told my teammates and they didn't really believe me and once they saw a jersey in my locker they believed it was true. More than anything I'm just upset we didn't win."
-- Timberwolves forward Love.
HOT: Love's first quarter was significantly more than what anyone in Target Center was anticipating. In the first 12 minutes Love scored 16 points, shot 7-of-12 from the field and grabbed six rebounds. Not exactly a tentative start for someone returning a few weeks early from a fractured shooting hand.
NOTABLE: The Nugget's second half defense stifled the Timberwolves after trailing by 14 at the break. Minnesota scored 32 points in the second quarter but were held to 36 in the entire second half. Denver's defensive pressure held Minnesota to just a 27.3 percent field goal percentage in the final two quarters.
UP NEXT: For the Wolves, Friday at Portland, Saturday at Golden State, Tuesday at Sacramento. For the Nuggets, Friday vs.Golden State , Sunday vs. New Orleans, Tuesday at Utah.

The University will not increase the Tuition Fee you are charged during the course of an academic year.
If you are studying on a programme of more than one year's duration, the tuition fees for subsequent years of your programme are likely to increase each year. The way in which continuing students' fee rates are determined varies according to an individual's 'fee status' as set out on our fees webpages.
What are tuition fees for?
Studying at a UK University means that you need to pay an annual fee for your tuition, which covers the costs associated with teaching, examinations, assessment and graduation.
The fee that you will be charged depends on whether you are considered to be a UK, EU or overseas student. Visiting students will be charged a pro-rata fee for periods of study less than a year.
Our annual tuition fee is set for a 12 month session, which usually runs from October to September the following year.
How does Lancaster set overseas tuition fees?
Overseas fees, alongside all other sources of income, allow the University to maintain its abilities across the range of activities and services. Each year the University's Finance Committee consider recommendations for increases to fees proposed for all categories of student and this takes into account a range of factors including projected cost inflation for the University, comparisons against other high-quality institutions and external financial factors such as projected exchange rate movements.
What support is available towards tuition fees?
Lancaster University's priority is to support every student in making the most of their education. Many of our students each year will be entitled to bursaries or scholarships to help with the cost of fees and/or living expenses. You can find out more about financial support, studentships, and awards for postgraduate study on our website.

Why British Pound Flash Crashed In Asia Hours
The British pound plunged over 6% against the dollar at around 7AM Hong Kong time on Friday. It recovered most of its losses and traded down "only" 2% at 1.2370 per U.S. dollar.
Traders are scratching their heads trying to figure out what drove the flash crash. There was talk of "fat finger", of thin liquidity in early Asia hours, and some blamed algorithm-driven trading. Currency traders tend to set up stop-loss orders, so if the pound moves down in a big way, it would trigger more automated selling.
The Financial Times published an article this morning saying that French president François Hollande said Britain must suffer the consequences of leaving the EU and the EU must demand a tough stance when it negotiates an exit. Financial Times reported:
"The UK has decided to do a Brexit, I believe even a hard Brexit. Well, then we must go all the way through the UK's willingness to leave the EU. We have to have this firmness," President Hollande told 150 guests at the 20th anniversary of Notre Europe, the pro-EU think-tank founded by Jacques Delors, the former EU commission chief.
"If not, we would jeopardise the fundamental principles of the EU. Other countries would want to leave the EU to get the supposed advantages without the obligations."
The Socialist leader insisted: "There must be a threat, there must be a risk, there must be a price. Otherwise we will be in a negotiation that cannot end well."
The pound has been very sensitive to politics lately. Since few now expect much from the Bank of England - a key driver of the pound - what politicians across the channel say is having a greater impact. Morgan Stanley wrote in a note yesterday:
Higher inflation expectations in the UK due to the expected impact from the exchange rate shock and the generally stable UK current account data have caused markets to price only a small probability of further BoE cuts this year. Comments from the Prime Minister suggest there could be more objection towards the BoE easing further this year, but we are finding that GBP is less correlated with the performance of gilts and more with political drivers.
PM May's commitment to trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty seems to follow political instinct to unify the Conservative Party, but it does not help in respect of providing economic guidance. For now, we think it would be most important to lay out a framework for how Britain's trade relationship with Europe may look in the future. This vision could help companies making decisions concerning their future in the UK. Being outside the political EU (via Brexit vote) and inside the common market (by not triggering Article 50) would have given the UK the opportunity to define this target. Instead, exit negotiations may now start in spring 2017, driven by political and not economic targets. With 46% of exports from the UK being sent to the EU, the UK may have to pay a high economic price for this strategy. GBP may have to fall further from here to compensate for this self-imposed uncertainty.
So I would say the FT article and stop-loss orders contributed to the crash.

UPDATE 2-U.S. states probe Home Depot breach, senators seek FTC investigation
(Adds senators' comments, analyst comments, details of credit ratings impact)
By Karen Freifeld
NEW YORK, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Two senators asked the federal government to investigate a data breach on the payment-card processing systems of Home Depot Inc and five U.S. states launched a probe into the matter on Tuesday as fallout from last week's attack intensified.
The retailer has yet to say what was stolen, though experts fear the attackers may have gotten away with more than 40 million payment cards, which would exceed the number taken in last year's unprecedented attack on Target Corp.
Home Depot said customers who shopped at its stores as far back as April were exposed, meaning the breach extended for more than four months including the busy summer season. That is far longer than the three-week Target breach.
The increased government scrutiny could be another sign of trouble for Home Depot, even though it has yet to determine the full scope of the breach, analysts warned.
"This sounds worrisome," said Efraim Levy, senior equity analyst at Standard & Poor's.
The news also caught the attention of credit ratings agency Moody's, which said the attack is a "negative" factor, though there was no immediate rating impact.
The effort by five U.S. states was disclosed just a day after the largest U.S. home improvement retailer confirmed it had been breached. Continued...
