Or rather, a peek behind system sounds.
Windows 3.1 (I think – it might have been Win95) introduced the concept of "application events" to Windows (I prefer to call them system sounds).
But how do these events actually work? It turns out that documentation of how the schema for windows sounds work is relatively hard to find, but it's not very complicated. This topic in MSDN covers defining application events (I call them system sounds), but it really doesn't describe the schema used to extend them. This topic also talks about how to register events for your application. But I'm not aware of any comprehensive description of what it takes to add a sound alias to Windows.
There are 5 steps needed to define a new system sound. You need to:
- Tell Windows about your application.
- Tell Windows about the application event (alias) for the sound.
- Author the .WAV file for your sound.
- Associate your WAV file with your application event
- Write your app to call PlaySound
I'm not going to go into the authoring thingy, I have no idea how one would go about doing that :). But I do know how to tell Windows about steps 1, 2, and 4.
To let Windows know about the sound, you need to do two things. The first is that you need to be sure that PlaySound can figure out what file is associated with the sound, the second is that you need to be able to tell the control panel the "name" of your sound.
In order to tell PlaySound and the control panel applet about your event, you need to define an "alias" for that event. Once you've done that, simply insert a call to PlaySound specifying the SND_ALIAS flag, and you're done programming the event (that's #4). But you still have to plumb in the support to map between the alias and the .WAV file that holds the sound, and that means going to the registry.
System sounds live under the "AppEvents\Apps" registry key under HKEY_CURRENT_USER. From there, you can define the names of your sound aliases, set their display name, and otherwise control how the system manages your sounds.
The Apps key has a pretty straightforward layout: There are a number of keys under the Apps key, one for each application that's registered to play sounds.
The ".Default" key is reserved for use by Windows, nobody should ever add an alias to that section. Instead, you should create a new key under "Apps" with the filename (no extension) of your executable. So if Outlook wants to add its own sounds, it should create a key named "Outlook". The default value for the applications key is the name that the sounds control panel applet will use for the applications section.
<APPNAME>\ <default Value "Your app name">
There's a significant drawback to doing this though – you can't support MUI builds (multiple languages on the same machine). To enable MUI support, you should also create a value with the name DispFileName. DispFileName should be a REG_SZ formatted as a shell indirect string. mmsys.cpl will use SHLoadIndirectString to retrieve the actual value in a MUI safe form. For Vista and beyond, there's a new registry API RegLoadMUIString that lets you do this directly from the registry. You will also want to specify the SND_APPLICATION flag to PlaySound to tell it to look somewhere other than .Default. When you specify SND_APPLICATION, PlaySound looks up the currently running executable name and uses that (minus path and extension) for the <appname>
<APPNAME>\ <default Value "Your app name">
VALUE: DispFileName, REG_SZ <value <shell path for your app name>>
Phew, we're almost done. All we need to do now is to add a the actual sounds. Under the app specific key, add a new key for each of your sounds – the name of the key matches the name of your alias. Under the key with the alias, create yet another key named ".Current", the value of that should be either a REG_SZ or a REG_EXPAND_SZ that contains the path of your sound.
<APPNAME>\ <default Value "Your app name">
<Alias Name>\ <default Value: The display name for your alias>
.Current <default Value "Path to your .WAV file">
The sounds control panel applet will use the display name specified for your alias.
That's about it – it's a smidge more complicated than the MSDN documentation makes it out to be, but… Enjoy!
Btw, if you look at a current XP or Vista machine, you'll find two registry keys under AppEvents, "EventLabels" and "Schemes". The "EventLabels" key is an alternate mechanism to defines the mapping between the event alias and the display name used for your sound in the control panel.
Event Labels define the display name of the event. It provides a flat list that maps between event aliases and their display names (similar to using the default value for the event listed above). To add a new display name for a given alias, simply create a key with the name of your alias, and set the default value to the display name for the event. Once again, for MUI builds, you can use the DispFileName trick to specify a resource that will be used for the name.
CriticalBatteryAlarm <default value "Critical Battery Alarm">
VALUE: DispFileName, REG_SZ <value "@mmsys.cpl,-5827">

Impacts of surface mine valley fills on headwater floods in eastern Kentucky

The potential impacts of valley fills associated with mountaintop removal/valley fill (MTR/VF) coal mining on downstream flooding in the coalfields of eastern Kentucky and adjacent states are a subject of public debate and scientific uncertainty. This study explored two aspects of this issue. First, hydrologic indices of relative runoff production and surface and subsurface flow detention were applied to conditions typical of headwater and low-order drainage basins in eastern Kentucky. Results show that there is a clear risk of increased flooding (greater runoff production and less surface flow detention) following MTR/VF operations, and suggest that, on balance, valley fills are more likely to increase rather than decrease flood potential. However, there is a wide range of outcomes, qualitatively and quantitatively. Flood risks can be increased or decreased, and the degree of either may vary markedly. The effects of MTR/VF mining on downstream peak flows are highly contingent on local pre- and post-mining conditions, and it would be unwise to apply generalizations to specific sites. Second, the occurrence of flash floods downstream of MTR/VF operations when nearby unmined areas did not flood or had less severe floods has frequently been explained (without supporting data) in terms of locally greater precipitation. The likelihood of such short-range variability of storm precipitation is evaluated by applying the state probability function to NEXRAD radar estimates of precipitation for two 2001 storms which produced flash floods in eastern Kentucky. The spatial structure of the storm precipitation indicates that at the scale of the analysis (pixel size of approximately 2 km) large local variations in storm precipitation are unlikely—that is, the probability of nearby hollows or low-order drainage basins receiving substantially different storm precipitation totals is low.

According to a men's tennis forum page, a reddit user and a YouTube video description, Novak Djokovic shouted a vulgarity at the crowd during his second round match against Grigor Dimitrov at the Madrid Open. Since the alleged statement of "Now you suck my d**k" apparently was shouted by Djokovic in Serbian, his native tongue, this lowly blogger cannot say for certain if that is in fact what the No. 1 men's tennis player in the world shouted at the crowd. What I can state, however, that Djokovic did lose the match to Dimitrov, the world's No. 28-ranked player, 7-6 (8-6) 6-7 (8-10) 6-3 and that BBC Sports reports that the crowd was extremely pro-Dimitrov, chanting his name throughout the match. Video of the alleged vulgarity, which appears to occur after Djokovic wins the second set in a tiebreaker: So, the question remains, anyone out there who speaks Serbian and can translate what Novak Djokovic said to the crowd? We wait with bated breath. The post Did Novak Djokovic shout 'Now you lick my d**k!' at Madrid Open crowd? (video) appeared first on Sportress of Blogitude.

Pramac Racing Team
Today's qualifying session for tomorrow's Silverstone Grand Prix got underway with blustery and cool weather conditions, but the White and Green Team was able to stir the blood, achieving a great result.
Hèctor Barberà captured the best qualifying result in his career, as a MotoGP rider, setting the 6th overall fastest time at 2'03.876.
Tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. local time, the 25-year-old rider and the Pramac Team will start the 20 laps of this 2012 British round from the second row of the grid, looking to also score their best race result of this 2012 MotoGP World Championship.
Hèctor Barberà – Pramac Racing Team Rider – 6th fastest lap time in 2'03.876
"I am so happy about this best qualifying result of the season, but I'm even happier about the fact that I felt so good on my Ducati Desmosedici this afternoon. It is really important to be on the second row for tomorrow because this gives us the best chance for a brilliant race.
I feel comfortable and I'm really looking forward to tomorrow, although I hope it isn't going to rain. I'm just 0.5 seconds away from today's quickest rider, Alvaro Bautista, and this gives me a lot of confidence for the race.
Once again, I have to say thanks to my entire team for doing a great job today."
Francesco Guidotti – Pramac Racing Team Manager –
" With today's changing weather, we started at the beginning this afternoon with clear ideas, looking to set a quick lap time. We managed it and this allowed us to make a big step forward on the timesheet, stopping the clock with a great lap time and achieving the second row on the grid.
Today we enjoyed our best 2012 campaign result in a qualifying session, and now we hope to also keep the same level tomorrow during the race."

Marius Hills is a volcanic plateau on the nearside of the Moon. It is of great interest for its high concentration of volcanic features, including domes, cones, ridges, and rilles. However, the morphological and chronological characteristics of this plateau were not well studied due to the low resolution of early mission data. This study describes the detailed morphology of the volcanic features using the latest high spatial resolution images of the Terrain Camera (TC) onboard Selene-1 (10 m/pix) and Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) (0.5 m/pix). We report here some new structures such as skylights and remnants of lava tubes. We have divided spectrally homogenous areas with Clementine UVVIS data and did crater size frequency distribution (CSFD) measurements with Lunar Orbiter (LO) IV and TC images in every spectral unit. We first report absolute model ages of 1.10 Ga for Marius basalt 1, 1.49 Ga for Flamsteed basalt, and 1.46 Ga for Schiaparelli Basalt. In addition, we have identified several younger lava events: they are Marius basalt 2 (814 Ma), medium to low titanium basalt (949 Ma), and undifferentiated medium titanium basalt (687 Ma). Finally, we propose a mantle plume scenario for the formation of Marius Hills, which could solve the inconsistency of previous models.

A DREAM cruise: Carnival Dream Cruise Review by SCcruiser123
Overall Member Rating
A DREAM cruise
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Port Canaveral (Orlando)
We had done our online check-in so we breezed through the boarding process. The cabins were ready when we got aboard and we checked into our cove balcony cabin. It was wonderful being so close to the water. We kept our door open most nights to listen to the waves. The service on the ship was great. The Dream is lovely and well maintained. The cabin was roomy, with lots of storage space and the bathroom was the biggest I've had on a cruise.
We only saw our room steward once or twice, but he always had our room in good order. The dining room staff were also very good and the food was hot and delicious. None of us had anything that wasn't great. Breakfast in the dining room had slower service, but we weren't in a big hurry More so it didn't matter to us.
The only show we went to was Dancing in the Street was very good. We went to a couple of adult comedy shows and they were good too.
We spent a lot of time in the Ocean Plaza and enjoyed the Lanai when the weather permitted. The martini tasting was fun - the bartender pours all four varieties of martinis at one time. Less

Consumer Report Sees The Potential In The Electric Toyota SUV
The electric version of Toyota's RAV4 might be sneered at by some as just another compliance car to show the state of California and the U.S. that it is serious about lowering our petroleum addiction, but nonetheless, at the very least, it is out the door. Having spent a few minutes behind its wheel, I had enough of a taste to feel this electric SUV would definitely change many people's erroneous views of what electric car, EV can and cannot do. This Toyota RAV4 EV was more fun to drive than your average gasoline SUV. See our previous article: The Toyota RAV4 EV Drive At AltCarExpo
Consumer Report Smitten By Toyota's Electric SUV. In fact, Consumer Report, CR starts with a strong statement: "A smooth-running Toyota RAV4 that does not consume gasoline is now at dealerships, and we recently borrowed one to sample at our test track. And so far, we're seeing real appeal in an electric sport-ute." With only 2,600 examples up for lease in selected dealerships at shy of $50,000, Toyota is sending the alternative energy community mixed signals again. Having just declared it would not continue making electric cars since demand wasn't high enough according to the company, Toyota delivers an electric SUV that shows the potential of the electric drive.
RAV4 EV Performance. When it comes to gasoline SUVs, certain owners might be familiar with torquey accelerations but one thing SUVs are not known for are their ideal handling. The only SUVs that achieve such poise are mostly left to the Porsche Cayenne and the up and coming Maserati Kubang. This is where the Toyota RAV4 EV will surprise many. It has strong and frank accelerations, no doubt do the Tesla drivetrain but it also handles very well despite added weight. I'd even be willing to bet most current RAV4 gasoline owners might prefer the electric version.
In fact, CR goes as far as saying that: "the overall driving experience is much like a conventional RAV4 despite the 400-pound plus weight penalty over a V6 model. Initial thrust is punchy, with quiet, continuous power. There is little driveline whine or other odd noises. Ride and handling are pretty close to the conventional RAV. Brakes are smooth and linear, with none of the jerkiness or grabby feel sometimes experienced with regenerative braking systems."

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
My wife and I received a letter in the mail that looked like a check. She actually that it was a check (for $1398.00). I knew better and after convincing her it was fake, she called the number on the letter. In order to get this "free gift," we were instructed to attend a 90 minute presentation which we were told was not a sales presentation.
Something smelt fishy, but my wife convinced me to go and waste our Saturday afternoon, after all it is only 90 minutes of my life for a potential reward. We made the 20 minute drive to a Hilton hotel near the Ft. Lauderdale airport and paid the parking fees the hotel charged us.
After the 2 hour (not 90 minutes) presentation in a freezing cold room I was ready to get our "free gift" and go. During the presentation they promised some unbelievable prices so of course I was a bit skeptical. After telling the salesman that I would not be handing over my credit card to pay their over 10k price tag, all of a sudden the price went down. Then it went down again, and again. Finally somehow I was given the price of $2500 for the same exact program they showed me during the presentation. Now why didn't they just show me that to begin with?!
After telling the salesman Rodger Williams who apparently is the CEO no for the 20th time, the insults started to come. Not only did he insult me, he constantly made inappropriate sexual remarks towards my wife. After a half hour of this, I was pissed, my wife and I started to walk out. We were then told we had to be there to get our "free gifts." So we came back in the room to get the gift and now all of a sudden we could do a 2 year trial instead for $1500. I signed the dotted line because my wife wanted to do so. It turned out it actually cost $2149, which again I was uncomfortable with spending here, but to make the wife happy I did.
After another half hour in paper work signing our life away, we had spent a total of 3 hours there. Finally we got the prize we were promised for coming in. This is where I was real pissed. The gifts have a "registration fee" of $100 on top of all the taxes and who knows what else. We are expected to blindly send another $100 out just to see our options. This smells more and more like a scam each minute we spend at the place.
We get home and start trying to do some research and see nothing good out on the internet about this company, but we figured you can't always take what people on the internet say as fact. So we got our member info and called the 1-800 number. They told us we had to wait till after we have given up our 3 days rite of rescission (the time which the law allows you to cancel) to use the service were just purchased. Are you counting the red flags here? Don't be as stupid as I was!
Finally were able to get online to book a trip and everything that we could book through this so called "wholesale travel" company, we could book on our own FOR LESS! That's right you can go to the same exact places through any travel site for less than what they are charging! Prices were nothing close to what they had showed us during the presentation. After calling several times to try to get my money back, eventually my phone number was blocked.
Do not let these criminals scam you like they scammed me! Rodger Williams is the CEO and Rob Crawford is the owner. They are working out of the Hilton on Griffen road near the FT. Lauderdale airport. They had also informed us that they just opened another office to scam more people in Jacksonville FL. Don't fall for their lies and lose out on thousands like I did, cancel while you still can!

NEW YORK — Bridgette Dunlap says she expected Fordham University to provide students with "standard health care."
"To the extent that a Jesuit university is not willing to provide standard health care, the students need to know about that," said Dunlap, a third-year student at Fordham Law School who said the university has never explicitly disclosed on its website or student handbook that she cannot obtain prescription hormonal contraceptives at on-campus clinics.
Dunlap also said Fordham has failed to explain what medical exceptions are made for students looking to obtain contraception, as well as what the rules are that govern related on-campus issues, such as condom distribution.
"We have only asked them to document and explain the policies. The lack of notice of the policies causes a number of problems for Fordham students," said Dunlap, president of the Fordham chapter of Law Students for Reproductive Justice, a national nonprofit network of lawyers and academics who advocate for legalized abortion and expanded access to contraception, among other related issues.
The controversy at Fordham represents another struggle for Catholic universities dealing with the tensions of officially upholding Church teaching on faith and morals in the midst of a pluralistic and increasingly secularized society. Further, a number of national surveys confirm that the majority of Catholics use contraception and many challenge the Church's positions on issues such as legalized abortion and same-sex "marriage."
Catholic universities have a right, and from many parents' perspective, an obligation, to safeguard certain ethical and moral standards, said Patrick Reilly, president of the Cardinal Newman Society, which has sought to renew and strengthen the religious identity and mission of Catholic higher education.
"Clearly, a Catholic university cannot refer students to abortion, contraception or anything contrary to Catholic teaching," Reilly said. "It is not charitable for students to be bullying a Catholic institution into doing something a Catholic institution should not be doing."
Dunlap, a product of Catholic schooling, and other students from the Fordham Law Students for Reproductive Justice chapter organized a well-publicized off-campus birth-control facility on Nov. 30. Medical volunteers and doctors from the Institute for Family Health in New York City prescribed birth control to 40 Fordham students, made appointments for six others seeking intrauterine devices, and counseled several more on birth-control options.
"It is important to recognize that there are divergent views among Catholics, especially on the topic of contraception, when we have more than 90% of sexually active Catholic women admitting to being on contraception," said Dunlap, who told the Register that only "a small, extreme minority" of Catholics on campus believe that contraception is intrinsically evil, as taught by the Church.
State Law Requires Coverage
Reilly said it is inappropriate for Fordham students to be involved in groups like Law Students for Reproductive Justice, which has chapters or some presence at more than 100 law schools, including many Catholic universities, across the country.
Law Students for Reproductive Justice's advisory board consists of representatives from groups that support legalized abortion and family planning, such as NARAL Pro-Choice America, the National Abortion Federation, the Feminist Majority, and the American Civil Liberties Union. Its national office says it supports law students' efforts to gain contraceptive coverage in student health insurance, increase access to emergency contraception, raise money for abortion funds and post-natal maternal health care, and recruit volunteers to escort people into abortion businesses, among other activities.
The Fordham chapter's official university website lists members' pro-abortion activities, including their work as escorts for Planned Parenthood and partnerships with local pro-choice legal organizations.
"Students engaged in an activity like this at a Catholic institution should be disciplined. This is not simply free speech," Reilly said.
Fordham has thus far released a prepared statement affirming its identity as a Catholic university that "follows Church teachings on reproductive issues."
"We're sure that our students are well aware of Fordham's Jesuit, Catholic identity: It is central to our mission and is featured prominently on our website and in our publications," the university said.
Though required by New York state law to provide coverage of prescription contraceptives in its insurance plans, Fordham's Student Health Center does not prescribe birth control. To access those services, Fordham students must visit off-campus clinics. The university said its policies in this area are straightforward.
Fordham stated: "The actual student health-insurance policy is very explicit about what is and isn't covered, including coverage of birth control; the university website is less explicit regarding services available through the Student Health Center. We've heard the students' concern on this, and may in fact edit the Web copy to be more specific, but it's a fine line: We don't itemize non-birth-control services on the website, either."
Dunlap said the Law Students for Reproductive Justice chapter has not demanded that Fordham prescribe birth control on campus, but that the university explicitly put forward all its family-planning policies in writing.
"It is my understanding that Catholic doctrine does not prohibit the use of hormonal contraception to treat medical conditions, and yet students with conditions and health risks ranging in severity are routinely turned away, even when our health center has or has been offered documentation of prior diagnoses," Dunlap said.
Expecting Too Much
Jeffrey Gray, Fordham's vice president of student affairs, affirmed the university's Catholic identity in an Oct. 14 email to Dunlap. Gray also reiterated Fordham's policy that birth control will not be provided through the campus' health services offices, but he conceded that Dunlap and the Law Students for Reproductive Justice chapter had a point.
"Perhaps we have erroneously assumed that others would understand this (contraception policy) as a practical matter, given the prominence of our mission and traditions at the university. We will take steps to ensure that proper clarity is provided on these matters in the future," Gray said.
Two months later, Dunlap said Fordham has still not acted.
"We did not anticipate that Fordham would resist disclosing its policies," she said. "We thought it was an oversight that would be quickly corrected once it was brought to the university's attention that the language in our insurance contract that explains Fordham insurance covers contraception is misleading, in the absence of any mention of the fact that the health centers, where Fordham-insured students are expected to receive their primary and gynecological care, will not prescribe it."
The Fordham Law Students for Reproductive Justice chapter has been distributing a petition demanding that the university clarify its policies on birth control not being offered on campus, the possible exceptions and the rules about condom distribution on campus (Fordham prohibits it). The petition also asks Fordham students to support the chapter's efforts to "organize alternative avenues for students to procure birth control and condoms."
Dunlap rejects the argument that she and like-minded students should have known they were matriculating in a Catholic institution before making demands about expanded access to contraception.
"Catholics and Catholic institutions are capable of being free and making their own choices without having to be controlled," said Dunlap, who further argued that there are many non-Catholic Fordham students whose religious traditions do not ban contraception. She said they have a right to know what the university's family-planning policies are.
Reilly said students should not expect a Catholic university to violate Catholic teaching.
"Catholic universities have been extremely generous in their welcoming of non-Catholic students and allowing them to follow their beliefs and personal traditions, but for a student to expect the university to act contrary to Catholic principles," Reilly said, "is a non-generous response to the university's generosity."
Register correspondent Brian Fraga writes from New Bedford, Massachusetts.
An earlier version of this article stated that Law Students for Reproductive Justice had a chapter at several Catholic universities, including The Catholic University of America. Jill Adams, executive director of the organization, clarified that LSRJ "has been supporting individual students from The Catholic University of America Columbus School of Law in their efforts to learn about reproductive-rights law and justice and to connect with like-minded peers and professionals throughout the country. It is for this reason the website says LSRJ has a presence on that campus. Numerous members of our organization are law students on campuses where, due to the ideological or cultural climate, they cannot be part of an officially recognized student organization. They are nonetheless valued members who give LSRJ a presence at these institutions."
Clearly there should have been fuller disclosure. If the students had known, would it have changed their decision to attended Fordham? Highly unlikely!
Most of the complainers are just practicing for the future career as ambulance chasers. And that is okay, but stop pretending your rights have been violated.
Bravo, David, for refocusing the discussion. If the school does not offer contraception or any other health care service, for whatever reason, it should have no problem saying so. Disclosure even offers the university a teaching moment if it chooses to take a stance on reproductive health care.
The problem here is—Fordham Law school is not, in practice, a religious legal institution. More than half the student body is non-christian, most of whom are jewish.
The issue here is exactly what Dunlap has been requesting—NOTICE. The school is not holding itself out to be a Catholic (Jesuit) Law School, it is implicitly suggesting a secular legal education to incoming students.
It cannot open its left hand up for money, and deceptively rake in student's money under pretenses (non disclosure counts as deceptive, not only morally but most especially in law) and then pull the other hand from behind its back with a big stop sign.
I am not attacking religion or the church, or even the school as a negative institution. Instead I am just pointing out a practice that appears to be going on, perhaps without thinking, that needs addressing now that it poses a CLEAR PROBLEM and light has been shed on it. Only truth can prevail; the school must be honest with students and prospective students about its policies in the above regard.
The demand for contraception is not a matter of health. It is a demand for constant fornication; the which is the only way to get pregnant. Since when is pregnancy a disease?
This is just one more example of how poorly a "product of Catholic schooling" has been catechized. If she had consistantly heard from her Catholic school teachers and priests from the pulpit the Church's stand on contraception, abortion, IVF, etc. she would know why contraception is not "standard care" at a Catholic university.
I fully support Fordham in its efforts to adhere to Catholic teaching on reproduction and marriage. All universities who want to be CAtholic should do the same. People who want to discard these teachings should be urged to attend other universities. The Church needs to monitor uiversities calling themselves Catholic to make sure there is compliance with Church teachings.
Indeed, Cindy. Simply because the majority of Catholics contracept does not make Church teaching on contraception any less binding on them.
People who reject teachings of pope and bishops united with him rejects Jesus. Jesus said to his disciples "Whoever listens to you listens to me. Whoever rejects you rejects me…" (Luke 10:16). So THOSE PEOPLE ARE REJECTING JESUS.
Another thing is: abortion supporters should be asked the following question "Would you like to have been aborted while you were in your mother's womb?" If any one says "No" to the question and yet insists on abortion are using a DOUBLE STANDARD!
People who reject teachings of pope and bishops united with him rejects Jesus. Jesus said to his discples "Whoever listens to you listens to me. Whoever rejects you rejects me…" (Luke 10:16). So THOSE PEOPLE ARE REJECTING JESUS.
Another thing is: abortion supporters should be reminded of Golden Rule and asked the following question "Would you like to have been aborted while you were in your mother's womb?" If any one says "No" to the question and yet insists on abortion are using a DOUBLE STANDARD!
Three cheers for resisting those who would have Fordham violate it's Catholic beliefs on birth control. There are plenty of other schools they can attend to will provide them with what they want.
There are very good reasons for society to expect a man and a woman to make a public commitment to each other before they begin an intimate relationship. Despite the waning of that expectation in some circles, the reasons for it remain just as real and valid as they were when society really did have it.
Whine whine whine, excuses excuses excuses…and they obviously are not just concerned about medical needs…
Oh, and two months is a blink of an eye in institutional time; the bigger the animal, the slower it walks. Get used to it. If something is moving on it (I don't suppose they have any other priorities, like actually giving their students an education), it is likely still in talks behind doors.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but there is nothing in your news article that would justify your headline. Fordham is doing nothing to "fight" against this organization, which is an apologist and cooperator in murder. The group continues to have a page on the university website, and the university has done nothing to disavow its evil agenda.
Why do people continue to believe that just because many Catholics use birth control that the Church must change her teaching on that? Catholics commit other sins as well, but that does not mean the Church will say those things are ok either.

Disability Rights
The ACLU strives for an America free of discrimination against people with disabilities, where people with disabilities are valued, integrated members of society who have full access to education, homes, health care, jobs, and families. We are also committed to ensuring people with disabilities are no longer segregated into, and overrepresented in, civil and criminal institutions such as nursing homes, psychiatric hospitals, jails, and prisons.
Search Disability Rights
What You Need To Know
- 70% Seventy percent of public school students who are physically restrained or secluded have disabilities.
- 60%Sixty percent of people in local jails have some form of mental disability.
- $15,000 or lessForty-eight percent of people with disabilities have a personal income of $15,000 or less.
Current Issues
The ACLU supports reducing the use of the United States' jail and prison systems to warehouse people with mental and physical disabilities. We support efforts within the criminal justice system to identify and work with a person's disability in rehabilitative efforts.
The ACLU supports equal access to educational opportunities for people with disabilities. We promote an education system that is free from punitive disciplinary methods—such as corporal punishment, restraint and seclusion, and bullying—and inappropriate and overused suspensions and expulsions. We oppose the use of vouchers and separate schools that further segregate and impoverish the education of students with disabilities.
People in the United States are profoundly uncomfortable with people who have disabilities, especially significant or visible disabilities. This has led, consciously or unconsciously, to health care, housing, and employment that segregates people with disabilities from the rest of society.

BCS ratings: NIU/Fresno heating up, but battle for No. 3 is over
Oklahoma State trounced Baylor, putting an end to the battle for No. 3. However, NIU got a huge boost in the computers this week and moved past Fresno State...for now.
Every week, I get asked the same question. "Did anything in the BCS ratings this week surprise you?" And my answer is always the same, "No. It's kind of my job not to be surprised." This week, that changed. Something very surprising and not terribly understandable happened. Northern Illinois got a huge boost in the computers, one large enough to move them past Fresno State in the overall BCS ratings, at least for now.
I had no idea beating an ordinary team like Toledo could have such an impact, especially with only a couple teams ahead of NIU losing. In the overall computer average, which throws out the high and low for each team, the Huskies moved up five spots. They passed Baylor and Oregon, which lost. They passed Clemson and South Carolina, which played lower division teams. And finally, they passed Stanford, who beat Cal, which isn't much better than some lower division teams.
Oklahoma State had been right on the Huskies' tail in the computers last week, but beating Baylor wasn't enough to go by them.
What is even more remarkable is what happened in some of the individual computers. Anderson-Hester doesn't count for NIU because it is the low rating, but the Huskies moved up 11 spots in those rankings, and their strength of schedule ranking in that system improved to 95th from 121st. Remember, it played Toledo, which ranks 56th in that system, and the Huskies' previous opponents had a pedestrian 4-4 week. Winning teams that NIU passed in A-H include UCF, Wisconsin, which beat a ranked team, Fresno State, USC, Oklahoma, and Michigan State.
The Huskies also moved up eight spots in Wolfe and Massey, both of which do count. They have been third in Sagarin ever since he introduced his new and "improved" formula (twice) a month ago.
That's very dramatic movement for such an ordinary addition to the data for NIU.
We'll have to see how well that holds though. Next week, the Huskies play their fifth opponent that has one or fewer FBS wins when they take on Western Michigan. If playing Toledo can have them, um, rocketing up the rankings, you'd think the Broncos might throw them off. Of course, rankings are relative and it will depend on how other teams do also.
I still believe that if the voters stay on board with Fresno State, the computer gap will close to the point where the Bulldogs eventually go back past NIU.
Ohio State no longer needs to watch its back. The Buckeyes are in the clear now because Oklahoma State routed Baylor, dropping the Bears out of contention for the No. 3 spot in the BCS ratings.
Lining up behind them is a close race for the top-rated one loss team. Auburn leads Missouri, but obviously, no more than one of those teams can finish with one loss. Clemson is right behind overall, but ahead of both in the polls. I have to believe that poll lead would disappear if one of those SEC teams won the league.
Let's be clear about one thing though...Ohio State will hold off a one loss SEC champion, and anyone else for that matter. "But what if Auburn wins big?" "But what if Ohio State struggles?" "But what if...."
Stop. There's no "what if?" There's no situation. There's no margin. There's nothing that will cause Ohio State to get jumped if it keeps winning.
Baylor fell five spots to No. 9, while Oregon dropped out of the top 10, landing just ahead of Northern Illinois at 13th. Neither are likely BCS teams at this point.
Arizona State, who beat UCLA to clinch the Pac-12 South, and LSU, which beat Texas A&M, were the biggest upward movers this week. Both climbed five spots in the rankings.

Are you planning to chart up a healthy diet plan while you are pregnant? Or are you planning to conceive and want to know all about those essential foods and supplements that are so important during your pregnancy months?
While you are still on the list, have you given some thought to the much important vitamin that has a significant role to play in keeping your pregnancy healthy? Yes, we are talking about Vitamin D, and if you do not have much information on it yet, read our post here and educate yourself now.
Why Do You Need Vitamin D When You Are Pregnant?
Vitamin D, or the sunshine vitamin, is one of the most important vitamins that you need during your pregnancy. Diets that are high in vitamin D will help keep your pregnancy healthy, as well as add more health benefits for you and your unborn baby. Here is a quick look at how vitamin D helps you when you are pregnant:
• Taking a dose that is rich in vitamin D will help you reduce chances of various complications related to pregnancy. Some such health risks involve gestational diabetes, preterm birth, pregnancy-related infections, compulsory cesarean birth and any other complications that may arise at the time of birth.
• When you consume vitamin D in adequate quantities, especially while you are pregnant, it helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphorus in your body. Both calcium and phosphorus will help develop your unborn baby's teeth and bones. It will also keep your bones and teeth healthy and strong.
• Having a deficiency in vitamin D while you are pregnant can lead to skeletal deformities in your unborn baby. It can also cause various developmental problems like retardation in the fetus.
• If you lack the required amount of vitamin D in your body while you are pregnant, it will mean that your baby will also be born with a vitamin D deficiency. It will immediately put your baby at a high risk of rickets that can cause various deformities and fractures through her life.
• Not having enough vitamin D at the time of birth can also cause your baby to have an abnormal bone growth and lead to various delays in physical development. In severe cases, it can also lead to life-long bone development issues as well as low immunity (1).
How Much Vitamin D Do You Need While You Are Pregnant?
According to various studies, medical researchers estimate that while you are pregnant, you should have at least 4,000 international units (IU) of vitamin D every day. It is almost ten times the amount of vitamin D recommended on a daily basis. However, the study found that pregnant women who take the said amount of vitamin D on a daily basis did not develop any side effects. In fact, they were at an almost 50 percent lesser chance of having any vitamin D deficiency related pregnancy or birth complications.
How much vitamin D you need on a daily basis while you are pregnant is a matter of individual health and situation. Your doctor will know all about your medical history as well as the health of your pregnancy. It is important that before taking the below-mentioned numbers, you have a word with your doctor and only then proceed.
Here is a quick look at how much vitamin D you would require while you are pregnant:
- According to the National Academy of Sciences, you should have at least 200 IUs or 5 micrograms of vitamin D on a daily basis.
- Your body makes its vitamin D when you step out in the sun. Regulate your vitamin D intake. If you live in a tropical climate, you might not need vitamin D supplements. Conversely, if you stay at a place with no sunshine, you might need to have supplements every day.
- According to some experts, if the amount is not enough, and depending on the health of your pregnancy and certain other factors, you may need more (2).
Sources Of Vitamin D:
As with anything you eat, drink or do when you are pregnant, before you proceed to have any of the following foods, make sure you take your doctor's approval for the same. Here is a list of foods that will help you get the required amount of vitamin D that you need:
- Fatty fish like salmon, tuna, catfish, sardines and mackerel.
- Cheese.
- Egg yolks.
- Foods that are fortified with vitamin D. Some examples include fortified fresh fruit juices, fortified milk, fortified skim milk and fortified soy milk, fortified dairy products and even fortified cereals.
- Fortified Margarine.
Do You Need To Consume Vitamin D Supplements While You Are Pregnant?
Your doctor will be the right person to tell you whether you should take any additional vitamin D supplements during pregnancy. If your doctor feels it is necessary, she may ask you to consume a daily supplement that contains 10 mcg of vitamin D. Your doctor might ask you to consume vitamin D supplements throughout pregnancy and while you are breastfeeding as well.
There are certain situations when you may be prone to have a deficiency of vitamin D. Here are a few instances where you may need an additional supplement to make up for the lack of it:
- If you are of South Asian, Middle Eastern, Caribbean or African descent.
- If you do not get too much exposure to sunlight and are mostly at home. You may also be deficient in vitamin D if you always cover yourself up while stepping out or use a lot of sunblock cream.
- You may be lacking in vitamin D if you do not regularly eat foods that are a good source of the sunlight vitamin. Some foods that you should regularly include in your diet are meat, oily fish and eggs, and the foods mentioned above.
- If you have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or more.
How much vitamin D you need during pregnancy will depend on various factors, so make sure you speak to your doctor about it.
How did you fulfill your body's requirement of vitamin D while you were pregnant? Share your tips here.

Macau casinos' total revenue soared 29.5% in March through Sunday, compared to a year ago, a report Monday said.
Mainland Chinese and VIP gamblers from around the globe continue to flock to the former Portuguese colony, China's only legal casino gaming district and the world's hottest gambling destination.
RBC Capital Markets raised its 2013 revenue growth forecast for Macau casinos to 10.5%, up from 10% earlier, citing channel checks with Las Vegas Sands (LVS), MGM Resorts International (MGM), Wynn Resorts (WYNN) and other casinos with operations there that suggest high-rollers are returning to Macau.
Sands shares rose 1.6% in Monday afternoon trading on the stock market today.
So-called VIP gamblers stayed away earlier as Chinese officials probed illegal gambling activity by local junket operators who bring in gamblers from outside the district.
Although the Chinese government crackdown continues, gamblers apparently are ignoring it.
"We're all pleasantly surprised at how well Macau is doing," RBC Capital analyst John Kempf told IBD. "But we're cautious because we're all concerned about China's economy and the mixed economic signals we're getting."
Kempf said he's seen an uptick in the number of VIP gamblers this month, but it will take more data to determine whether they've really returned in significant numbers.
Sands recently opened the last 1,800 rooms of its new multi-billion-dollar Sands Cotai casino, which it began opening early last year.
"As soon as they fill those rooms, their market share in Macau will likely increase," at the expense of rivals, Kempf said.
The world's largest casino company could use a lift. Its earnings-per-share growth has shrunk by 19%, 16% and 5% over the last three quarters. Analysts project it will report 6% lower EPS for the current quarter.
Investors continue to bet on it, though, and shares are up 18% so far in 2013. Sands sports an IBD Composite Rating of 91, meaning it's outperformed 91% of all stocks.
MGM Resorts edged down fractionally. The No. 2 Vegas casino's stock price hiked 6.8% on March 14 after activist investor Kirk Kerkorian's investment firm Tracinda said it may boost its stake in MGM as high as 25%.
Tracinda noted at the time that no decision had been made as to how many shares it would buy.
Wynn Resorts rose 0.7% Monday afternoon.
Hong Kong-based Melco Crown Entertainment (MPEL), which competes with the Vegas casinos in Macau, climbed 2.8%.
Elsewhere in the Leisure-Gaming/Equipment group, Caesars Entertainment (CZR) slid 1.5%.
Caesars doesn't have Macau casinos, but saw strong growth early this year as consumers returned to its Las Vegas, Atlantic City and other U.S. casinos, and on prospects of higher revenue after New Jersey recently legalized online gambling.
Caesars soared 288% from a 4.52 low on Nov. 15 to a new all-time intraday high 18.25 on March 18 before retreating.

Matt Risinger came up with a clever solution to deal with the problem, a temp power panel that sits inside and contains subpanels with GFCI breakers. The breakers feed multiple receptacles on the panel so anything that's plugged in is GFCI protected. The unit requires a temporary power line and is set up for 60 or 100 amps.
