The Story (continued)
The Searchers (1956)
The next scene is beautifully orchestrated, a masterpiece of visual storytelling. The camera remains stationary in the main room of the cabin as the action unfolds with various characters. While Clayton drinks his last cup of coffee and eats a doughnut before leaving, he kicks the front door shut with his foot and is left alone in the room. To his left (screen right), he sees Martha through the doorway of her bedroom, taking out and gently stroking and caressing Ethan's Confederate cape in an enigmatic, semi-religious gesture. Standing in the foreground while staring straight ahead and pretending not to notice the private moment from the corner of his eye, Clayton finishes his coffee and deliberately averts his eyes. In the background behind Clayton, Martha brings out Ethan's hat and coat to him when he enters. Ethan accepts both items and chastely kisses Martha goodbye on the forehead - the second time in the film. Experiencing discomfort at witnessing and sensing their loving feelings for each other, an intimacy that is a clear violation of accepted norms, Clayton remains stoically silent and immobile as he stares ahead. [Prior to the film's story, Ethan may have loved Martha but refused to become committed or domesticated. Longing for security, she married his stable brother instead.] Ethan turns to leave - Martha follows him with an outstretched hand which never was able to caress him. Clayton puts down his cup and follows Ethan, squeezing by to walk around Martha to get through the front door.
Ethan and the posse leave on horseback, as Martha watches once again (with other family members) from the front of the cabin. She hugs Debbie as Ethan rides away. Along the way, Marty calls Ethan "uncle," a close kinship term that Ethan rejects: "Don't call me Uncle. I ain't your Uncle...Don't need to call me Sir either, or Grandpa or Methuselah. I can whup you to a frazzle...name's Ethan." Soon, after riding through majestic landscapes of Monument Valley, they find the prized cattle 40 miles away, deliberately killed with feared Comanche lances, not by Caddos or Kiowas (as Ethan emphasizes while scowling at Mose) - slaughtered but not eaten for food. With their voices echoing from the towering sandstone walls surrounding them, Ethan unemotionally informs everyone how they were deliberately tricked - lured and diverted away from the unprotected ranches so that the defenseless settlers would be left behind. The victims are feared to be either the Jorgensens (where Lars' wife and daughter Laurie are) or the Edwards:
Stealin' the cattle was just to pull us out. This is a murder raid.
Lars Jorgensen's reaction is to break down, pray hysterically and ride off: "Oh please God. Please no!!"
Desperately anxious to return to defend the homestead 40 miles away, Marty fails to heed Ethan's advice to let his horse rest and gallops off in blind fear. Mose Harper remains with Ethan to rest their horses before returning. Ethan removes his own horse's saddle and rubs the sweat off the horse's back. In one of the film's few closeups of Ethan's face, he stands over his horse, agonizing and realizing that his brother's home could be attacked. His face is painfully anguished by the thought that Martha and his brother's family could be the target of an impending Comanche murder raid.
The tense, uneasy pre-massacre scene at Aaron's homestead before the Indian attack in the orange-red light of dusk is highlighted by a succession of vivid, poetic images. Aaron and Martha pretend that nothing is amiss to avoid scaring the children:
- a covey of birds (quail?) take sudden flight after being startled
- the family dog barks on the porch
- a nervous Martha watches her husband as he tries to remain calm, but takes his gun with him: "I think I'll see if I can't pick off a couple of sage hens before supper"
- Ben shows concern to his mother: "I wish Uncle Ethan was here. Don't you Ma?"
- a closeup of Lucy screaming when she realizes they are in grave danger and threatened by an Indian attack
- Martha is anxious with Debbie as she is put through the window with her blanket and rag doll Topsy and told to run and hide in the family cemetery. Martha throws herself across the window sill in tears, crying out: "Baby!"
The pre-massacre scene ends with the shocking view of Chief Scar (German-born Henry Brandon, a blue-eyed, non-Native American) standing menacingly over a frightened Debbie crouched by a family grave, his shadow moving over her and covering her. [Note: A quick glimpse of the tombstone that Debbie hides next to reveals the source of Ethan's glaring hatred for the Indians: "HERE LIES MARY JANE EDWARDS KILLED BY COMANCHES MAY 12, 1852 A GOOD WIFE AND MOTHER IN HER 41st YEAR." Ethan's own mother was massacred by Comanches 16 years earlier.] The scene fades out as Scar blows on his horn, signaling the start of the massacre. Most of the Edwards family (Ethan's brother, sister-in-law and nephew) are brutally and tragically murdered in the posse's absence by warring Comanche Indians. Scar kidnaps Ethan's two nieces, Debbie and Lucy, ultimately making one of them - Debbie - his 'squaw.'
About a mile away from the Edwards' homestead, Ethan passes Marty who is afoot and carrying his saddle - his horse died from exhaustion. Then, Ethan makes the terrible discovery. In another closeup of his face, he views the burned-out homestead from a distance. He calls out Martha's name (not Aaron's or the children's) when he gets closer to the havoc of the scene, and then sees some of her clothing - her blue dress. Framed by the remains of a smoking, burning doorway and silhouetted against the light, Ethan squats and surveys the butchered dead, and his head drops as he imagines the torture that three family members suffered, including Martha's rape. [A similar scene of Luke Skywalker's discovery of his aunt and uncle's burning home after their murder by Imperial Stormtroopers is found in George Lucas' Star Wars (1977).]
As he comes out of the house after finding Martha's body, he is crazed in his stance and expression. [He has lost his beloved Martha twice, first to his brother, and then to the savagery of the wilderness embodied in bloodthirsty Chief Scar. Scar's violation and destruction of Martha in her own home is a perverted expression of Ethan's own frustrated sexual longing - his impossible love for her. Psychically Scar-red and disfigured, his obsessed search for the killer is partially motivated by racial hatred, but mostly for revenge of Martha's sexual violation.]
He fights off Marty, keeping the horror from him: "Don't go in there, boy...Don't let him look in there, Mose. Won't do him any good." Mose rights the rocking chair and sits in it one more time outside the smoldering ruins of the Edwards home while Ethan walks off, crying out: "Lucy, Debbie." Finding Debbie's discarded blanket and rag doll in the cemetery after being alerted to look there by the barking family dog, he realizes she has been abducted along with Lucy.
At the desert funeral ceremony of the massacred Edwards family, the assembled people gathered around the graves sing Shall We Gather at the River. Ethan attempts to hurry the proceedings along, impatient and contemptuous of the ritualistic customs that hold society together, and ready to begin the search. More interested in vengeance than ritual, he tells Reverend Clayton as he authoritatively moves away and draws other mourners with him to abruptly end the ceremony:
Put an amen to it. There's no more time for praying. Amen. Brad. Martin.
The Reverend is also wrenched away from his religious duties to assume the lead as Captain of the vengeful chase. Ethan decides to take the law into his own hands during the vengeful search for his kidnapped kin, who may either be raped or taken into Indian society and culture.
A search party is reassembled and gives chase following the Comanche's trail, composed of Ethan, Marty, teenaged Brad Jorgensen (Lucy's sweetheart and fiancee), Captain Clayton, and other rangers. Ethan sets out to find his two nieces, Lucy and Debbie, motivated by his love for Martha and a homicidal rage against the Indians, but he is unaware that his search is the start of a five-year journey. Mrs. Jorgensen (Olive Carey, widow of Harry Carey, Sr.) pleads with an inattentive Ethan to not seek vengeance before he begins his obsessive search:
Ethan, those girls mean as much to me as though they were my own. Maybe you don't know that my Brad's been sitting up with Lucy and...It's just that I know that Martha would want ya to take care of her boys as well as her girls. And if the girls are dead, don't let the boys waste their lives in vengeance. Promise me, Ethan.
Along the way, the searchers find a Comanche buried under a large sandstone rock. [This scene of the traditional Indian burial ritual is closely juxtaposed to the previous scene of the Christian funeral.] Ethan takes his gun and shoots two bullets at the Indian corpse, aiming at its eyes. Although Reverend Clayton interprets his senseless, excessive act as vindictive and contemptuous, Ethan explains how his defilement of the Indian has thwarted the spiritual belief of the Comanche, causing his spirit to wander forevermore:
Clayton: What good did that do ya?
Ethan: By what you preach, none, but what that Comanche believes. Ain't got no eyes, he can't enter the spirit-land. Has to wander forever between the winds.
[Ethan is an incensed Indian-hater, although he is very much akin to them and is knowledgeable about their way of life. He can speak the Comanche language fluently, and he is an expert in how they live - he acknowledges or accepts their belief that a dead Comanche warrior without his eyes will wander in the spirit-land forever. But he belongs to neither the Indian world or the white world - doomed forever to remain a lone son of the frontier.]
The group's plan is to find and ransom the girls alive rather than attack the Comanches and provoke retaliation against the two hostages. But Ethan is confrontational to the group and to Marty, calling him "blankethead." He is more interested in vengeance than in finding the girls alive. Asked by the Reverend whether he wants to quit his vengeful search, the invulnerable, assertive Ethan replies with his favorite trademark retort [immortalized in Buddy Holly and the Cricket's popular song released shortly afterwards, "That'll Be The Day"]:
That'll be the day.
The next day, when Comanches appear on the upper horizon and surround them by flanking them between two parallel lines, the Indians give chase after them to the river. Before they ferociously attack a second time during the skirmish, the posse takes a defensive position on the far bank of the river. Clayton (as Reverend) offers his Bible to one of the wounded men: "Hold it! It will make you feel good." Ethan (again expert in Indian ways) recognizes the chief's "death song" before the actual attack: "The war chief. He's got to, to save face." Mose (always seen as a "fool") gives thanks: "That which we are about to receive, we thank thee, O Lord." After shooting his first Indian, Martin actually cries and throws down his gun, showing more compassion for the Indians than anyone else. During the vicious attack, Ethan confidently fires away alongside Clayton.
During the withering gunfire, Bible-toting Clayton cries out triumphantly: "Hallelujah!" But when Clayton runs out of ammunition and curses: "Dad blast it!", Ethan throws him a revolver, joking: "Watch it, it's loaded!" Angered by Ethan's caustic wit, Clayton grabs the hat off his head and sails it across toward Ethan, striking him in the stomach with it. Their repetitive tossing of objects at each other conveys the delicate balance of enmity and respect that exists between them. [As Ethan is caught between two worlds, so is Clayton - a character who has no separation between roles - he switches his identity rather quickly from minister to Texas Ranger.]
When the Indians retreat and carry off their dead, Ethan persists in firing upon the retreating war party with savage blood-lust, while Clayton attempts to stop him: "Leave 'em carry off their hurt and dead." Violently snarling back and displaying sublimated emotional hatred, Ethan tells Clayton that he wants to continue on alone without interference:
Well, Reverend, that tears it! From now on, you stay out of this. All of ya. I don't want you with me. I don't need ya for what I gotta do.
The posse turns back, but Ethan reluctantly takes Brad (Lucy's beau) and Marty along with him to pursue them alone, warning: "All right, but I'm givin' the orders, hear?"
As they rest their horses and walk along, Ethan illustrates his understanding of the ways of the Native Americans who live very differently from the settlers:
Brad: They gotta stop sometime. If they're human men at all, they gotta stop.
Ethan: No, a human rides a horse until it dies, then he goes on afoot. Comanch comes along and gets that horse up, rides him twenty more miles, then eats him. (He cautions Martin to drink less from the canteen) Easy on that.
Martin: Sorry. We don't even know if Debbie and Lucy's in this bunch. Maybe they split up?
Ethan: They're with 'em all right - if they're still alive.
Brad: You said that enough! Maybe Lucy's dead, maybe they're both dead. But if I hear that from you again, I'll fight ya, Mr. Edwards!
Ethan: That'll be the day. (He mounts his horse.) Spread out....

On February 23, I received the following email from Best Friends Animal Society:
Dear Friend of Weeble,
We're sorry to let you know that Weeble the cat has passed away. Her system shut down, and was no longer able to support her. At age 14, it was her time to go. She was surrounded by much love as she made her way over the Bridge.
We're very sad to lose her. As her sponsor, you know Weeble was a very special cat. She had her neurological issues, which meant she didn't get around as well as a normal cat. However, her heart more than made up for the mis-wiring in her head. She had such a sweet, gentle nature, and gave love freely. She will be sorely missed by all. But she was so lucky to have had a friend like you. And to have lived such a good long life, where she was beloved by all who met her.
There are many other animals with special needs, just like Weeble, who would love to have a sponsor like she had. So please take a moment to meet with a few of them. (Your sponsorship donation is, of course, still good for whomever you choose.) Please follow the link at the bottom of the page to choose another animal.
Thank you for caring, and good wishes from all of us at Best Friends.
We are now sponsoring one of Weeble's very good friends from the Sanctuary, Audrey in memory of both Weeble and Bubbie.
By the way, Weeble updates us from the Bridge that she is having a splendid time, RUNNING everywhere and that she and Bubbie have had a picnic together and plan to have more. She has lots of very good friends there, but sends her love to all of her friends back here on earth, especially to Audrey.
I was sponsored in memory of Terrific Tabby, Bubbie. Bubbie left for the Rainbow Bridge on December 19th, after a short illness. He was only 3 years old. He was much loved and I thank his friends for honoring him by sponsoring me.
Please visit the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary website at www.bestfriends.org to learn about this organization and how you can help and/or adopt animals in need. It's not just dogs and cats, but birds, barn yard animals, bunnies, wildlife and others. It is a wonderful organization that helps many animals across the country.
I sure would like to have a home! I've been waiting for that special family to come along, who will love me and be patient with me, in spite of my condition.

You will be forced to take some options you don't want to get specific options you do want. And several options are not available together.
At the time I bought mine, used SE sport package equipped cars were very very difficult to find and the only ones i did find had the DCT transmission (which i didn't want).. this was the only way to get mine, unless I ordered brand new.
As the car sits right now, with the wheel/tire package, fog lights, custom painted hood, modified power windows (available for 30 minutes after key off)
I still have less than 15K total in the car (including TTL)... find me an SE sport package that i can buy for that with less than 5000 miles. within a radius of 500 miles from where I live.
Just buying one with all the stuff in it, what's the fun in that? building the car the way you want it from a barebones model is part of the fun. Being able to work through the challenges that come up. It's the challenge of not just getting it to work, but making it look like it came that way, and doing it for the lowest possible cost... Now THAT's fun!!
If I would have simply just bought it with the stuff already there, I wouldn't know half of the stuff these little projects have taught me about this car and how it works.. This kind of stuff is invaluable. Doing these kind of projects improves my engineering, fabrication and design skills...
If you want to do it the easy way and just buy it... thats fine... to me its not just getting options in the car, its also a chance to learn new things.

Springfield XDM 45 Review by GunBlog.com
SpringField XD-M .45 ACP Review
After more than 2 years after releasing the XDm in .40 and 9mm, Springfield has now introduced to the market the Springfield XDm in a .45; and we at GunBlog.com got our hands on the first one that came into town. We've put about 1,500 rounds of various loads through it, tested it side by side with a Glock 21, and we're ready to tell you all about it.
Springfield touts the same M-Factor marketing with the .45 as it does with the XDm .40 and 9mm. It features a multi-adjust rail system that features 3 picatinny rail slots to give some freedom for mounting laser or lights. The XDm .45 also features main focus 3 dot sights, a match grade barrel, supposedly the industry's shortest trigger reset for a polymer framed pistol, a maximum reach ambidextrous mag release button, minimum error disassembly lever, adjustable grip with various backstraps, and Springfield's mega loc grip texture. Notice all the features start with an "M", which is what Springfield likes to call the "M" factor.
Opening the Case
Just like all the other Springfield XDs, the XDm .45 comes with all the bells and whistles. Opening up the case (which is bigger and more industrial looking/feeling than the standard XD cases) you'll find your new pistol, an OWB holster, a dual magazine carrier, a speedloader, two 13 round magazines, a cleaning brush, 3 different sized back-straps, and a gun lock.
All the given accessories are great and usable items (assuming you're a righty for the holster) except for one, the cleaning brush. I am a creature of habit, and I habitually remove the brush head off my push rod after pushing it from the breach to the muzzle through the bore when cleaning–the supplied brush seems to be twisted steel threads with the bristles incorporated at the end of the push rod, making removing the brush impossible. Most of us would never clean our pistols this way, especially a match grade barrel, so it baffles me why Springfield wouldn't supply a better brush.
The barrel for me is the most notable feature of the XDm .45. Being fully supported match barrel is a very noticeable feature to have. It'll allow you to show a wide range of ammunition while lessening the fear of a kb!. The barrel has match stated on the side of it. For me, having a fully supported match barrel is a huge plus when thinking about purchasing an XDm .45. Its almost a steal when comparing prices and features between other pistols.
The first thing most people look at when purchasing a new pistol is how does it feel in their hands. For me it is the make or break aspect when buying a new pistol. The XDm .45's grip is comfortable and provides enough surface area in order for me to get a proper grip with both hands so that I'm confident with my hold and comfortable when firing it.
The XDm .45 also features an ambidextrous safety; its something that is nice but I really don't see as much of an advantage. Most lefties just use their index finger, and a righty would never use it. I suppose it's a nice feature for lefties; however the slide release is static still for a right hand shooter.
One feature with the XDm .45 I enjoy is the grip texture. I put grip tape on my glock to increase the friction, and I find the XDm's grip to provide a similar feel. Although not as rough as grip tape, it is sufficient to eliminate the need for add on grip tape. The grip provides enough friction and has a comfortable angle for a suitable draw and good sight alignment.
A drawback regarding the ergonomics with the XDm .45 for me would have to be the back strap safety feature. I've never really been a fan of this style of safety feature, and on the XDm .45 it seems to be a unnecessary redundant safety feature. Although it doesn't take much to engage it, if you don't engage it the gun will not charge nor fire. I know one of the main goals of this safety feature is to attempt to prevent children from discharging the weapon–the theory behind it is so that children cannot grip the pistol and pull the trigger. I find width from the top of the grip to the trigger on the XDm to be easily gripped by a child anywhere from 7-10 years old, so I find the feature mute. Also, if ever in a compromised firing position with your grip, the gun will not function. I find the cost vs. benefit to favor not having the back strap safety.
Range Time
As mentioned before we put about 1,500 rounds through the XDm .45, and with all the various types of rounds we put through it we didn't have one malfunction. The closest thing we had to a malfunction was for the slide to remain locked back after the last round fired. This is mainly due to it being a brand new firearm and the recoil spring (which is quite beefy by the way) is still tight. The more we rounds we put through it, the less this happened, so I view it as a non issue after a good break in.
Accuracy with the XDm was as good as advertised. I was pleasantly surprised with how consistent the groups were with the pistol straight out of the box. From 7 yards I was shooting about 2-3.5 inch groups with federal 230 gr American Eagle ammo. At 15 yards those groups grew about 2 more inches as to be expected. All in all the accuracy out box stayed consistent and even improved with the more rounds we put through it.
Recoil is very manageable for a .45; it felt more controllable than my Glock 21. Follow up shots were easy to place, and regaining the sight picture with not a difficult task. Speaking of which, I find the sight picture to be very good–I like a fair amount of light between the front sight post shining through, and the XDm .45 provides that making a good, accurate sight picture easy to obtain.
A selling point provided by Springfield that I found to be misleading while at the range was the claim that it had the shortest trigger reset on any polymer pistol. I decided to test this side by side with my Glock 21 and found it extremely overstated by Springfield. The reset on the Glock and the XDm .45 were practically identical. Unless I measure it with a micrometer and pull gauge I might come to a different conclusion. But for practical purposes, I just tested it as I would fire it, and I could not notice a significant difference between the two resets.
The one thing I truly liked about the trigger though would be the surface area and form of the trigger. When compared to my Glock, I liked the way the trigger formed to tip of my firing finger. It seemed to have more of a concave feel rather than a convex feel of my Glock. It also felt as if there was slightly more surface area on the trigger which made squeezing the trigger directly back an easier task; hence, able to place more accurate rounds down range.
Closing Thoughts
As far as the price and features provided; the XDm .45 is performance pistol for a value price. A fully supported match barrel, all the accessories, reliability, and excellent accuracy all for under $700 will make this a hot seller this summer. I found it very comfortable to shoot, easy to break down and clean, super reliable, and extremely accurate.
If it were offered in different feature flavors (optional back strap safety, or an optional thumb safety like the XD or M&Ps) I would give it a hands down best buy. Those are personal preferences though, and I know some will not find those features, or lack there of, quite as cumbersome as I did. The XDm .45 is a suitable handgun for home/personal defense, or a duty weapon. It performed exceptionally well at the range so I wouldn't be surprised to see it pop up in an IPSC competition or a 3-gun.
As a huge Glock fan, I find it almost treasonable to like the XDm .45 so much; however, a great gun is a great gun–and the XDm .45 is a great gun at a great price.

text: The developer who plans to convert the former Portland Press Herald building into a hotel has delayed construction by several months to secure financing and collaborate with interior designers. Developer Jim Brady of Yarmouth had partnered with Kevin Bunker at the Developers Collaborative in Portland. The team had planned to start construction this summer after winning approvals from the planning board, historic preservation board and city council earlier this year. Faced with a complicated financing plan, Brady said he bought out Bunker's interest in the project in March. Brady tells the paper, that under a new timeline, construction would start early next year and a 110-room luxury hotel would open in the spring of 2015. The former newspaper building was sold in 2009 and has been empty since mid-2010.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Thanks for your question.
Unfortunately, the law requires a credit card company to issue a Form 1099-C if the debt is reduced by $600 or more. So you could not make them agree to do something against the law. The only exception would be if the debt was discharged in bankruptcy proceedings.
Hope this helps,
Best regards,

"Too late for Christmas cards this, year, so we went with a "happy new year" theme and this was a great choice. Cheered it up a bit by changing the main greeting from blue to yellow. Photo reproduction on the printed version faithfully matched the online version. Nice work, Tiny Prints!"
"These cards turned out GREAT! Love the design...we used it for a Christmas/pregnancy announcement by putting an ultrasound picture in the small box. PERFECT design for that!"
"with the extensive help of Brady and Janelle (because of my out-of-the-normal design format, nothing to do with product), my cards were wonderful. Many, many complements."
"My only reason for rating Design as a 4 is that there are other combinations of single and multiple photos and text that I would like to see, but clearly you can't offer EVERY possible combination! What I do like is the option of adding some text on top of the photos, so that we can label each photo without having to devote a whole panel to text. This year we tried the semi-gloss finish and like it very much!"

There are those in the Republican Party who do not believe changes are occurring in our weather system and blame such talk on "Liberals" who want to frighten Americans into supporting plans for government subsidies to industries that do not extract oil from the ground. Faith Birol of the International Energy Agency, has a different approach to what we humans do to our planetary system. As far as weather change proceeds, "the door is closing. I am very worried–if we don't change direction now on how we use energy, we will wind up beyond what scientists tell us is the minimum for safety. After 2017, we will lose the chance to limit temperature increase to 3.6 degrees."
Sounds like them LIBERALS are trying to frighten us. God gave us this planet and if there are any climate changes it is because God wills them. Stop worrying about what a bunch of college educated people claim is going to happen. Hop over to the nearest church, get on your knees and just let God know you are on His side.' He will just blow a lot of warm air and all this stuff about weather change will end!

Office of Rural Health
Veteran Rural Health Resource Center – Iowa City, Iowa
Focus Areas
Several projects at the VRHRC – Iowa City, IA. have focused on both understanding and addressing the issues related to patient's use of both VA and non-VA healthcare services. This pattern of use has been described by the terms dual utilization or co-managed care.
The VRHRC – Iowa City, IA. has created a toolkit for providers who deal with co-managed care.
View the Co-Managed Care Toolkit.
One of the barriers to using VA healthcare for rural Veterans was that many of them did not know if they were eligible for VA healthcare, nor did they know how to go about finding out their eligibility status. To help address this issue, the VRHRC – Iowa City, IA. staff travels throughout the Central Region to do outreach at various community events throughout the year.
Qualitative Evaluation
VRHRC – Iowa City, IA. has a multi-disciplinary evaluation team versed in qualitative and ethnographic methodology and mixed methods project/study design. In particular, their qualitative evaluation team has expertise in needs assessment, formative, and summative evaluation.

Implementation Manual for a Telemental Health Outreach Clinic
This manual aims to provide concrete guidance about how to implement a telemental health clinic between a VA medical center and a college campus.
Explore the manual.
Telehealth Collaborative Care with Rural HIV Patients
The original purpose of this pilot project was to develop and evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of "virtual HIV care teams" capable of providing accessible, high quality, comprehensive care for rural Veterans with HIV. Building on the success of the initial pilot program, a VA-wide initiative is being developed to improve the accessibility and quality of care for rural Veterans with complex, chronic illnesses.
Learn more about this project.
Remote Cardiac Rehab
Following discharge from a cardiac event, traditional rehabilitation requires the patient to come in for outpatient sessions three times a week for twelve weeks. These travel arrangements can be difficult for rural Veterans to attend these sessions, especially for Veterans living in rural areas. The Remote Delivery of Cardiac Rehabilitation program gives patients another option for cardiac rehabilitation.
Learn more about this project.
Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a largely preventable or very treatable disease, if caught early. However, given the long distances that some Veterans must travel for certain types of testing (e.g., colonoscopy), an intervention to increase screening with these modalities may not be realistic in rural or highly rural settings. The VRHRC-CR is working to improve screening rates in rural Veterans.

Hi, I've got a probably dumb question.
I see a lot of speed sculpts in which the user starts from primitives or zspheres "blobs" and then blocks out and refines the shapes till the final look is achieved. I've never modelled from scratch within ZBrush, so I can't understand how exactly the references are handled - expecially in the case of portraits of existing people; for an example, have a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3RO8-rMtCw . Now the author is obviously referencing some image to eyeball the look so precisely, but where is it kept?
Let's say you have gathered a few image references and you are now sculpting the mesh. Where do you keep the refs? Do you work with two monitors? Print them out and keep them on your desk? Do you use the reference plugin (which I find very awkward to work with)?

…So I have been looking for a healthier recipe for fish tacos that taste just as good, but I hadn't found one until tonight. These blackened baja tilapia tacos were amazing, and only had 362 calories for 2 tacos with all the toppings! Plus, my grandmother gave me one of her iron skillets last week, and I was able to use it for the first time to cook the fish. I also had water with lime to drink and some fresh cut pinneapple for dessert. This definitely gives me an excuse to eat-in more often!

"easy, but not good. The lime would be better if the juice was squeezed on after cooking - the rind gave the fish a bitter taste. Even though there was a lot of seasoning, the fish had no flavor and we all had to add a lot of salt to make it edible."

People of faith face attack by government
Jan 29, 2013 at 11:46 am | Print View
People of many faiths, and especially Catholics, face an unprecedented three-pronged attack by our government on three vital tenets of their respective faiths: the inviolability of the institution of marriage between one man and one woman, the sacredness of human life in all stages from the moment of conception to natural death, and the right freely to exercise their religions.
Our main defense lies in prayer, writing protest letters to politicians and the media, donating to like-minded organizations, voting and when necessary, engaging in civil disobedience.

Are we better off without an 'Obama Doctrine'?
Fox News
June 1
Commentary by: Marvin Kalb
Topic: US presidents and 'doctrines'
Question: Why is there no "Obama Doctrine," some bold assertion of American military power in defense of our national interests? Other presidents, facing extraordinary challenges, have adopted "doctrines" that warned potential aggressors that they could go this far and no further.
For example, the Truman Doctrine in 1947: The US, President Truman stated, would protect Greece and Turkey against possible communist subversion or assault.
The Eisenhower Doctrine in 1957: The US, President Eisenhower proclaimed, would defend its friends in the Middle East who are threatened by Soviet expansionism. …
Mutually Assured Cyberdestruction?
The New York Times
June 2
Quoted: Joseph Nye
Topic: Cyber warfare
It took years after the United States dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima for the nation to develop a common national understanding of when and how to use a weapon of such magnitude. Not until after the Cuban Missile Crisis, 50 years ago this October, did a consensus emerge that the weapon was too terrible ever to employ again, save as a deterrent and a weapon of last resort. …
But there is nothing so simple about cyberattacks. Usually it is unclear where they come from. That makes deterrence extraordinarily difficult. Moreover, a good deterrence "has to be credible," said Joseph S. Nye, the Harvard strategist who has written the deepest analysis yet of what lessons from the atomic age apply to cyberwar. "If an attack from China gets inside the American government's computer systems, we're not likely to turn off the lights in Beijing." Professor Nye calls for creating "a high cost" for an attacker, perhaps by naming and shaming. …
Densification under microscope
The Vancouver Sun
June 1
Quoted: Edward Glaeser, Taubman Center, Rappaport Institute
Topic: Urban densification and development
When Harvard urban economist Ed Glaeser looks at Vancouver, he sees an example for the rest of the world of a successful economic powerhouse. With its tall towers, airy space, dramatic views and proximity to wilderness and countryside, Vancouver is admired for "get-ting it right," he says. …
Glaeser…said in an interview that cities, once places people fled, have come into vogue again.
"The New York I grew up in 45 years ago in Manhattan is an example. Living in the city didn't seem like a very great idea. We've seen a radical reshaping of that, where a majority of people find city living to be far more attractive than they once did," he said. "In part that's the result of cities becoming safer and more pleasant but it is also because of cities excelling and providing an ongoing array of entertainment and forms of cultural innovation." …
Republicans Launch Attack on Tax Front
The Wall Street Journal
June 1
Quoted: Elaine Kamarck, Belfer Center
Topic: Recent jobs report
In the wake of Friday morning's weak jobs report, Republicans were betting that tax issues – and the expiring Bush-era tax levels in particular – will gain heft as a political cudgel they can use to beat up on Democrats. …
"Today's weak jobs reports reinforces the fact is the economy is treading water," said Elaine Kamarck, co-chairman of the RATE Coalition and a former adviser to President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore.
"Policymakers have begun to realize that to speed up job creation we need corporate tax reform that lowers the tax rate to a competitive level and simplifies the code so that business owners have the confidence to start hiring aggressively."
From war injuries to PTSD to backlogged claims, new veterans battle new foes after coming home
The Washington Post
June 4
Quoted: Linda Bilmes
Topic: Healthcare benefits for veterans
America has a new generation of veterans. More than 1.6 million troops are back from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and they are unlike any other group of veterans the nation has ever seen.
… The cost of veterans' benefits and health care peaks decades after a war ends, says Harvard University economist Linda Bilmes. These peaked in 1969 for veterans from World War I and in the 1980s for World War II. They haven't peaked yet for Vietnam veterans.
Finances are likely to be even tighter 30 years from now when costs for the newest veterans are greatest, she said. Unless a special fund for them is started now, "It's quite plausible many people will feel we can't afford these benefits we overpromised," Bilmes warns.
Nonprofit expenses under scrutiny
Ventura County Star
June 2
Quoted: Marion Fremont-Smith, Hauser Center
Topic: Controversy over nonprofits' spending reports
Thousands of nonprofit organizations in the United States misreport how they solicit billions of dollars in donations, making it impossible for Americans to know how their gifts are used. …
Some experts express indignation that major charities would claim to spend nothing on raising money.
"This is just outrageous," said Marion Fremont-Smith, senior research fellow at Harvard University's Hauser Center for Nonprofit Organizations. "If they say zero — and it cannot be zero — then that is a misreported tax form. And there are penalties for that." …
"A Revolution Needed to Be Waged and a Union Needed to Be Saved"
The Huffington Post
May 31
Commentary by: Charles Cogan, Belfer Center
Topic: The evolution of Memorial Day
These were the words of America's first black president, Barack Obama, as he praised those who had "left their homes and took up arms."
The occasion was a speech on the morning of May 28 at Arlington National Cemetery, during the Memorial Day commemoration of those who gave their lives in America's wars.
Interestingly, to begin with, Memorial Day wasn't all that inclusive. It began, after the Civil War, as Decoration Day, an annual ceremony at the end of May, in honor of all those who had fallen on the Union side. …

The Abortion Pill (Mifeprex) is the most common medication abortion procedure in the United States. The Abortion Pill may cause serious side effects, including failure to terminate the pregnancy. In spite of the risks, the FDA has extended the approved time frame for the Abortion Pill from 49 days (7 weeks) to 70 days (10 weeks) from the last menstrual period.
Medication abortion requires a three (or more) step process. The first step is visiting an abortion provider for an assessment and the first dose of medication. Two days later, the patient takes a second dose of medication at home. After this dose, cramping will begin to expel the embryo. The final step is to return to the abortion provider to determine if the abortion procedure was complete.
If medication abortion fails or is incomplete, a surgical abortion may be required. If you're considering a medical abortion, make sure you have all the information about this procedure and the surgical options as well. Contact the Pregnancy Clinic to make an appointment for a free pregnancy test and medical consultation our medical staff.
What are the risks? What if I am already pregnant? What if I've taken it before or need it again? Am I at risk for an STD?

Spend this summer studying the business of tourism in two of the top vacation destinations in Europe. You'll begin in Ireland, a country which attracts up to seven million visitors each year, looking at responsible tourism development as means of bolstering the economy while helping building community and national identity.
Next, you'll travel to Mallorca, with a population of slightly less than one million, the island welcomes 10 million international tourists every year. As a result, the service sector, and in particular tourism, becomes the economic engine of this region. Here you'll explore the different aspects of tourism as a vector of economic development and its contribution as an engine of globalization, and the importance of promoting sustainable tourism for the long-term ecosystem preservation. The cases of the Balearic Islands, Ireland and other European countries will be used to understand the evolution of tourist area and compare it with examples of less advanced or less mature locations.
Study abroad in Dublin and Palma and you will:

An ancient city, Dublin is one of the most dynamic and fastest growing European capitals. With a young and vibrant population of over 1,000,000, it has enjoyed considerable economic growth during the last decade. Dublin may be a city on the move; however, the charm, culture, and heritage of old Dublin is still apparent everywhere. It is perhaps the most literary city in the world with associations that include Joyce, Shaw, Swift, Wilde, and Beckett.
Palma de Mallorca, capital of the Balearic Islands, has inspired musicians, artists, and writers for centuries. The city, with its tiny traditional shops, Modernist facades, and tall buildings crowding the bay's shore, is a stark contrast to the rest of the island and its small romantic villages with stone houses found in the northern mountains. Blessed with a gentle climate and cosmopolitan urban life mixed with traditional culture, no wonder Palma is so attractive.
Mallorca is the number one tourist destination in Europe, with 12 million tourists per year and 80 percent of its local GDP generating from the tourism service sector. Some of Europe's major tourism enterprises, such as Air Europa, Air Berlin-Spain, Barceló, Hotel Beds, Iberostar, Orizonia, Sol Meliá, and Viajes Iberia have their headquarters in Palma. During the height of the tourist season, the international airport becomes one of the busiest in Europe.
A tourist destination for nearly 100 years, Mallorca experienced rapid tourist growth beginning in the 1950s, with the island being transformed from one of the poorest regions in Spain to one of the wealthiest. Mallorca seeks new ways to protect its treasures by promoting upscale tourism, convention and meetings, cultural heritage, eco-tourism, and sports tourism. Since 1991, Cabrera Island became a natural park, and in 2011 the Tramuntana Mountain Range was declared World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO for its great physical and cultural significance.
Antonia Ferriol earned her Ph.D. in Spanish literature from Pennsylvania State University. Antonia has taught Spanish language and literature at Middlebury College, Denison University, and Universitat de Illes Balears. She was resident director of the CIEE Study Centers in Alcalá de Henares and Barcelona.
If I were to define my own identity, I would just say, "Mediterranean." For me, Palma embodies the essence of a modern Mediterranean island: a melting pot of cultures and history that date back to the Romans and the Arabs. Sandy beaches and dramatic cliffs, charming mountain towns and castles, windmills and farms in the fields, Cabrera Island's national park, marsh and meadows which preserve autochthonous species. Traditional fiestas, craft markets, winding streets, and lively squares with musicians and artists.
Palma is big enough to support a large cultural offering and host immigrants from all over the world, yet welcoming and approachable for a period of study, to form friendships, and become immersed in the culture. Most past participants especially value how sincerely the locals have welcomed them, especially the families with whom they live and their Spanish friends, who helped them get to know Palma and to love the island and its culture.
If you want to know why Majorcans travel and live around the world, but in the end always come back to their island, as I did, you will have to come and find out for yourself. You will definitely fall in love with the people, the city, the landscapes, the pace of life, and the history, and you also will desire to keep coming back.
Antonia Ferriol, Resident Director
Martin Humphreys is a graduate of University College Dublin and holds a Master's degree in psychology. He has extensive teaching experience and has taught in a variety of environments with traditional and non-traditional students. He also has experience in student support and academic mentoring. This experience extends into the international educational field working with U.S. study abroad students. He has also taught English in South Korea. Martin is originally from Kildare and has an interest in Irish history and culture both in terms of personal and academic research.
Established in the early 1980s, Dublin City University (DCU) has approximately 10,000 students. DCU offers its students multi-disciplinary programs, creating an environment that stimulates entrepreneurial awareness and activity through strong links with local and international businesses. The 85-acre campus compares to a traditional U.S. campus with central green areas, cafés, theater, a sports center, and a library. DCU is located 20 to 30 minutes by bus from downtown Dublin. Public transportation is easily accessible.
Universitat de les Illes Balears (UIB) is a young university with a population of 13,000 students. Mallorca's economy depends mainly upon tourism which has resulted in a stronger emphasis on such academic and research areas as tourism studies, business, economics, human resources, and environmental sustainability. With the Tramuntana Mountain Range as its backdrop, UIB is just a 14-minute metro ride from the city center. The summer program is located in a UIB building right in the city center, no more than a 15- to 20-minute walk from the homestays and a 10-minute walk to Palma's waterfront.
In Dublin, study abroad students share apartments in an on-campus student residence. In the residence, students have their own room and small bathroom with a shared living/kitchen/dining area. There are three to six individual rooms to each shared area. Meals are not included in the program fee and are the responsibility of the student. There are dining facilities and a small grocery store on campus.
In Palma, students have two housing options: they can live in a Spanish speaking home where three daily meals are provided; or in a shared room at a hostel with breakfast included.
Homestays: on weekdays, the mid-day meal could be a sandwich to take to the university or equivalent. Housing is in the center of Palma. Students can walk from their homestays to Sa Riera, the University building in which classes meet (no more than a 20 minute walk). Homestays are an important contributing factor to the students' commitment to cultural and linguistic immersion. By living with a Spanish family, study abroad students practice in day-to-day life Spanish language, and experience Spanish culture first-hand. Most homestays do not speak English.
Hostel: this is not a university residence, but a hostel located 15-minute walk to Sa Riera (less than a 10-minute walk to the main square Plaza de España), in a centric area surrounded by supermarkets and cafeterias. Lunch and dinner are not included in the program fee and are the responsibility of the student. Students share their room with one or three other CIEE students, and can nominate roommates when they fill the CIEE housing form. Bathroom, living, and kitchen areas are shared. There is a small kitchen in the hostel, and common bathrooms (ie, no private bathroom) on each floor. CIEE tries to place CIEE students on the same floor, but this is not guaranteed.
Students have internet access on campus, in their dorm rooms, and at most homestays. All students are encouraged to bring a wireless-enabled laptop.
Courses in Dublin include daily lectures, readings, films, and frequent outings in the city. Each session includes a field trip linked to the coursework. CIEE courses are taught on the DCU campus by the CIEE Resident Director, but are not part of the DCU curriculum.
In Palma, courses meet every morning or afternoon for three hours from Monday through Friday, with occasional outings. CIEE study abroad courses combine lectures, readings, films, active participation and group discussion, case studies, class-related visits and study trips. Therefore, students are challenged to apply principles, concepts and frameworks to real world situations. Attendance is mandatory and absences affect final grades. CIEE classes provide a detailed syllabus, and students are expected to be prepared for class.
Courses are for CIEE Study Abroad students only.
Note: This course listing is for informational purposes only and does not constitute a contract between CIEE and any applicant, student, institution, or other party. The courses, as described, may be subject to change as a result of ongoing curricular revisions, assignment of lecturers and teaching staff, and program development. Courses may be canceled due to insufficient enrollment.

Sustainable Tourism in Ireland: An Analysis of Responsible Tourism Development
With up to seven million visitors per year, tourism is a vital part of Ireland's economy and has significant impacts of the socio-cultural and ecological environments of the country. With international tourism flows expected to reach 1.6 billion a year by 2020, tourism growth in Ireland is expected to continue and increase. Tourism is one of the most effective ways of redistributing wealth, by moving money into local economies from other parts of the country and overseas. Ecotourism can place a greater focus on the conservation of natural resources through the recognition of their importance to visitor experiences and their economic value to the local community. Tourism development encourages a positive sense of community and national identity, and can reinforce distinctive traditions and customs that come under threat from the globalization of culture. Recognizing the economic and socio-cultural benefits of tourism, and being equally aware of the negative impacts of mass tourism, Ireland has embraced and developed tourism products that are "clean and green" and developed an international reputation in the development of heritage, rural, cultural, and ecological tourism. Using a variety of learning including seminars, sites visits, field trips, and industry presentations, these courses examines the success and innovative nature of Irish tourism since its inception.
Tourism and Sustainable Development in Europe
The course is intended to enhance the understanding of tourism's contribution to inclusive sustainable development in developing countries, paying particular attention to the role of the private sector development, and the need to implement sustainable tourism initiatives to maximize long-term socio-economic benefits while maintaining a balanced use of resources. In this sense, the course presents the example of Mallorca, the Balearic Islands and other countries to study the evolution of a tourist area since its beginnings to its current situation and compare it with other cases of countries that are still in early tourism development stages. The course sessions combine lectures, discussions, case studies, presentations and other activities. Therefore, students are challenged to apply principles, concepts and frameworks to real world situations.

Join our campaign to get you the best deals, and help us fight for real competition in the media marketplace.
SAN FRANCISCO — Google on Tuesday added an embarrassment-avoidance tool that catches misdirected Gmail messages before they are fired off by users of the free Web-based email service. A feature playfully dubbed "Got the wrong Bob?" is designed to warn people if it appears they may be about to send a Gmail message to an unintended recipient.

I've put together a addon to start Music Party Mode to have easy access to it from my home screen and remote.
Upon running the addon it will start Music Party Mode, wait for X seconds then switches to full screen visualisation and optionally toggles the fullscreen music info after X seconds and will then indefinitely play random songs from your music collection. Timeouts can be configured in addon settings, defaults are 5 seconds for each.
Should work on all platforms, but I've only tested with android and linux.
For automatic updates you can install my repo. Code can be found on GitHub.

Interaction of 65- and 62-kD Proteins from the Apical Membranes of the Aedes aegypti Larvae Midgut Epithelium with Cry4B and Cry11A Endotoxins of Bacillus thuringiensis
- Cite this article as:
- Buzdin, A.A., Revina, L.P., Kostina, L.I. et al. Biochemistry (Moscow) (2002) 67: 540. doi:10.1023/A:1015594127636
A protein with the molecular weight of 65 kD is the only component of Aedes aegypti larvae BBM capable to specifically bind mosquitocidal toxins Cry4B and Cry11A of Bacillus thuringiensis. This protein lacks the leucine aminopeptidase activity which is characteristic for the toxin-binding proteins from the membranes of caterpillars. Cry-toxins inactive against A. aegypti larvae either fail to bind to the 65-kD protein and to a putative product of its proteolysis with the molecular weight of 62 kD (Cry1Ab), or bind but do not compete for this binding with mosquitocidal proteins (Cry9A). The proteolytic splitting out of the first five α-helices in the Cry4B toxin molecule does not affect its binding to the 65- and 62-kD proteins, but an additional removal of 20-30 amino acids from the C-terminal of the molecule sharply spoils this binding. Monosaccharide residues are not involved in the binding of the 65- and 62-kD proteins with Cry4B, Cry11A, and Cry9A.

Yield: Approximately 18 servings
To avoid the possible problem of salmonella, it's wise to avoid using raw eggs. The easiest way to do this is to use a pasteurized egg product.
1/2 cup pasteurized egg product
(equivalent to 4 whole eggs)
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup brandy
1/3 cup rum
2 cups apple juice or cider
3 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1. Place the egg product in a large punch bowl and beat until frothy.
2. Add the sugar and beat until combined and frothy.
3. Beat in the brandy and rum, a little at a time, then the apple juice.
4. Continue beating and add 1 cup of the cream. Beat several minutes until the mixture thickens somewhat.
5. In a medium-sized bowl, beat the remaining 2 cups of heavy cream until almost stiff. Stir into the brandy and cream mixture.
6. Sprinkle the nutmeg over the top. Serve at once.

Alan Thomas Wigs(11)
- Alan Thomas Dermafix wig provides you with ultimate security and comfort by naturally adhering the hairpiece to the scalp without glue or tape. Wearing Dermafix reduces the chances of irritation, itching and discomfort. Be a beautiful you, and leave the fear at home with Alan Thomas wigs.
Alan Thomas Dermafix Wigs
This Collection will allow you to regain your confidence, with the knowledge that your wig is securely anchored to your head. By incorporating a very special material called "artificial skin", these wigs are lightweight and comfortable. No petroleum products are used, which makes them non-allergenic. The wig naturally adheres to your scalp via strategically placed strips around the interior of the cap, which use the heat of your body instead of glue or tape.
These wigs can be worn by everyone, but the adhering works best when the hairs are less than 2" in length. These wigs are designed with natural hairlines; some also feature monofilament tops. Monofilament means that each hair or fiber is hand tied into an ultra fine sheer mesh base. When looking down into a monofilament top, the hair appears to be growing out of the scalp. Monofilament wigs can be styled in any direction you desire, providing the styling versatility of real hair ... the ultimate way to look and feel your best every day!
