Auckland motorists warned to be patient and plan ahead
Auckland motorists warned to be patient and plan ahead this Easter
Waitematä Police are urging motorists to be patient and plan ahead this Easter and Anzac weekend, with the motorways and roads expected to be extra busy.
Police are anticipating that many people will take a 'super break' by having the three days off between Easter and Anzac day, and will head out of town to holiday spots. The Easter break also coincides with the beginning of the school holidays, so motorists are asked to be patient, drive social and plan ahead.
From 4pm Thursday 17 April until 6am Monday 28 April, the speed enforcement threshold will be reduced to 4km/h and motorists can expect an increased Police presence on the roads.
Drivers who lost control or were travelling too fast for the conditions were the most common factors in crashes last Easter. All three of the fatal crashes that occurred over Easter 2013 were on the open road. Many of the roads in the Waitematä Police district are open rural roads, including the Dome Valley and State Highways 1 and 16, areas where Police often see examples of poor driving behaviour.
"Anyone who has ever sat in traffic heading North out of Auckland, particularly through the Puhoi and Warkworth areas has probably experienced the infuriating situation where a speeding driver makes a risky passing manoeuvre, only to be stopped further up the road by traffic congestion or traffic lights. Risky driving moves and speeding don't actually get you there any quicker and you risk killing or seriously injuring other holiday makers," says Inspector Fergus.
Traditionally, State Highway 1 has high volumes of traffic on holiday weekends, and Police are encouraging motorists heading north of Auckland to consider using State Highway 16 as an alternative route.
"Drivers heading away on the Thursday night before Good Friday and on the day should plan for and expect delays along State Highway 1. Similarly, delays should be expected when returning after Easter and Anzac weekend. Motorists can also expect congestion at passing lanes and again, exercising patience will ensure everyone gets to their destination safely" says Inspector Fergus.
Police are encouraging anyone planning to get behind the wheel of a car to "drive fresh" by getting plenty of sleep before a long journey, and staying away from alcohol.
The increased Police presence on the roads will also include speed camera vans on main routes.
"We'll also be focussing on driver distraction, we know that's a major contributor to a lot of the crashes we deal with, and anyone caught using a cellphone behind the wheel can expect to receive a ticket," says Inspector Fergus.
**Waitematä Police is the district responsible for policing the entire **Auckland** motorway and highways from Puhoi to **Bombay*
Police are hopeful that several motorists stopped during a week-long operation into red light runners throughout the Waitematä Police district might use the holiday weekend to brush up on the road code.
Over 800 traffic offences were detected across last week's operation, including 165 drivers who were given tickets for running red and yellow traffic lights.
When asked by officers "what does a yellow light mean?" several drivers answered "speed up to make it through before the light goes red."
Police wish to reiterate to all drivers that a yellow light means stop, unless you are so close to the intersection that you can't stop safely.

A senior executive said she ''lost'' herself while falsifying thousands of patient records at the Canberra Hospital's emergency department, official documents show.
Contemporary records of Kate Jackson's confession to being the central figure in last year's data-doctoring scandal record the executive director of critical care telling her superiors that she stopped tampering with patients' records, because she ''just couldn't do it any more''.
The documents, released by the ACT government under freedom-of-information laws, show the clinical director of the emergency department felt sidelined by the government response to the scandal and repeatedly asked for a greater role.
According to handwritten notes by ACT Health director-general Peggy Brown, Ms Jackson telephoned the health boss on the night of Friday, April 21, two weeks after the data tampering was discovered and asked for a meeting.
When the two women caught up at the department's Civic headquarters the following morning, according to Dr Brown's notes, the younger woman told her she was accepting responsibility for the data tampering.
''I mean I did it,'' Ms Jackson told her boss. When asked for an explanation, the senior nurse told the director-general that she did not understand her own behaviour.
''I'm disappointed in myself. I mean, I can't even understand it myself. It's like I lost myself,'' she reportedly said.
Ms Jackson told Dr Brown that she blamed no ''external factors'' for her conduct.
''When specifically queried (x2) she denied accepting the blame for someone else,'' the notes say.
''She also stated there were no external factors (in environment/service/management) that contributed. I make no excuses.''
More than 11,700 patient records were found to have been doctored between 2009 and 2012 to make the performance of the emergency department look better, with the scandal haunting the ACT Labor government for several months mid-last year.
Ms Jackson, who resigned last August under the threat of dismissal, told the Auditor-General's investigation that she blamed the ''environment'' at the hospital.
''The environment in the executive at Canberra Hospital has increasingly become one where I felt fearful for myself and for other people that I work with,'' Ms Jackson wrote.
The documents also show the concerns of emergency department clinical director Mike Hall about the government's response.
''I am in the position where I have far and away the greatest understanding of what has happened, and at least part of why it has happened, yet I am not fully sure that those who need to make decisions about this are as fully understanding of all these issues,'' Dr Hall wrote to Dr Brown on April 22.
On May 1, Dr Hall wrote to Canberra Hospital general manager Lee Martin, urging the hospital boss to hold a meeting with emergency department staff.
''I still do not feel that the people making some of the final decisions (Peggy and the minister) necessarily completely understand ED processes,'' Dr Hall wrote.
''There is a huge risk of decisions being made that will make my staff's job infinitely more difficult. As you know, they are already under incredible pressure.''

Cruising and boozing: Norwegian Epic Cruise Review by mockchops
Overall Member Rating
Cruising and boozing
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: Miami
Firstly the cabin, we had cabin 12149, which is a balcony cabin, The cabin itself was fairly tight in that if you wanted to go out onto the balcony there is no room for two people to get past the end of the bed at the same time. The bed was comfortable but it is short. Now I am only 5'8'' tall and my feet felt as though they were hanging out if the bed every night, even my wife who is 5'4'' in height felt the bed to be small. There is plenty of storage space, just read the booklet in the cabin as it tells you where every bit of space is. We did not read this until our second last day whilst sorting out our laundry and in doing so found loads of space that you can utilise. The shower room and the toilet are a bit tight so if you are a large person you may More have some problems.
The restaurants are great there is so much variety for all. Really anyone complaining about the food needs to have their head looked at because there is so much to keep even the hardest of eaters happy. My wife who does not eat meat/fish had a fair selection of food to pick and choose from. We had most of our meals in the garden cafe and we also sampled the Manhattan room which is lovely and Cagney's steakhouse where the food was excellent. Although in Cagney's there is a $25 dollar cover charge it is really worth it. The Manhattan room is a very busy restaurant. It has entertainment on during the early evening and you have to be patient and time it right to get in for a meal. Even if you have to wait they can give you a pager to let you know when a table comes free. The food in here also was excellent. We also went to Cirque Dreams in the Spiegel tent for a show and a dinner. We upgraded to premium seats but it does not really matter what seats that you get as you are so close to the action you may as well get the normal seats which are $10 less in price. It is a set meal ,everyone has the same food. The show itself was very good and you are so close to the action you can almost reach out and touch the performers.
There are plenty of bars throughout the ship one of which must get a mention being from Scotland is the Whisky bar. Now our friend who travels with us owns a bar and was looking forward to sampling and seeing which whiskies there were on offer. Well he was very disappointed as they only had four whiskies, now tell me this does this make this bar a whisky bar, I don't think so. Other bars throughout the ship were nice and had a theme to them. The Ice bar is cool, you get a coat and gloves to use when inside, you have to book a slot as it only holds about twenty people at a time so is quite small. Now Spice H2O bar which is at the rear of the ship was great at nights as they had fun entertainment going on there involving guests and had various themed nights for music , and for us it was excellent as we had a few good nights there dancing away beside the bar with the open skies, not what we are used to back home , At one point they even had a snow machine switched on blowing snow across the rear of the boat, now that's something as you don't normally get snow in the Caribbean.
The entertainment on board was excellent, we took in the Blueman Group, Cirque dreams show, Second City show and Legends in concert. Well this is the 3rd time we have seen Blueman group and it is still hilarious, so if you have not seen them before make sure you see them. Cirque dreams show was very good also ,it is a mixture of acrobatics and comedy, Second City which we had never heard of before , we booked as a fill in show and we are glad we did go to it as it was excellent and beyond our expectations. Lastly was the Legends in concert, this was very disappointing for all four of us. The acts that they had on the evening we went to see it was Janet Jackson, now none of us would call JJ a legend so were not impressed by this and at the same time she was rather poor. Next was Neil Diamond, yes he is a legend but it looked like they grabbed someone from below decks and shoved him on stage to do a few songs. Finally was Aretha Franklin, now unless you like her music you will be disappointed. This show lasted about 55 minutes ,lets put it this way, its 55 minutes of my life I will never get back. From previous reviews of this particular show maybe they change the acts on a daily / weekly or cruise basis it may be an idea to try and find out from the booking office onboard as to who is performing on a given night.
When we arrived in ports we had booked two excursions for two of our destinations. We went on the Screamin Jet eagle boat which was absolutely fantastic, lasts about one hour in total and you are guaranteed to get soaked so take a towel to hand dry yourself when you are finished. The guys who run the trip were great and offered some great advice about what to wear and and what not to on the boat. Our other trip we booked was the Stingray Adventure, well both my wife and I love animals and this trip was excellent too. You go to a small island not far from port and you get a facemask and snorkel and go into a sectioned of part of the bay where the stingrays are. The water is only 2-3 feet deep so no need to worry about being a strong swimmer, you get the opportunity to feed the animals and even get to hold one so that was something I jumped at the chance to do. Remember and take a waterproof camera as there is nobody at the bay to take photos of yourselves, which is something we found totally strange We would definitely recommend this trip however as your time is short when doing trips you cannot squeeze in two trips in the same port which gives you some time to do your own bit if sightseeing on your own.
The staff on board the ship were all very helpful and polite at all times but this would be expected.
All in all we had an absolutely brilliant time on board there is so much to do and see when on board it is a shame to get off when in port. We would recommend this ship to anyone. This was our second time with NCL, and really enjoyed it and will definitely go cruising with them again in the future. Less

text: Hi, I use Dropbox quite a lot for business use, but I never store anything in it without a copy on my HDD. Well, manually coping large folders and files to the Desktop and then dragging them to my Dropbox folder is tedious and time consuming when you do it a lot. I created an Automator App to copy and save for me, but I need constant access to it and I don't want it in my Dock or Toolbar, so I created an Automator Service. The Service is at the bottom of the right click menu (which is very long for me!) and sometimes get cut off. Can I customize this, or does Apple lock it down? If not, why won't my keyboard shortcut work? I find the Service in System Preference and set a keyboard shortcut like on the others, but when I try it use it it only makes a copy of the file/folder right next to the original, it doesn't save it to Dropbox, but when I use the right click menu method it works perfectly. Any ideas? Thank you.

Zoops! Scientists are reeling after discovering that they not only killed the world's oldest creature — but that it is 507 years old.
The deep-sea clam – known as an ocean quahog – was discovered in the North Atlantic near Iceland in 2006.
Researchers put it in a freezer for later study, unaware of its old age.
Initially, scientists from Bangor University concluded it was 400 years old based on a counting the rings on its shell.
A quahog's shell grows by a layer every year, in the summer when the water is warmer and food is plentiful. It means that when its shell is cut in half, scientists can count the lines in a similar way trees can be dated by rings in their trunks.
The growth rings can be seen in two places; on the outside of the shell and at the hinge where the two halves meet. The hinge is generally considered by scientists as the best place to count the rings, as it is protected from outside elements.
But because researchers counted the rings at the hinge, they missed the extra 100 that put the quahog at more than 500 years old.
The mollusk was born in 1499 – seven years after Columbus discovered America.
It died in a freezer.

In this randomized study The investigators aim to compare the growth of very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants fed either a high protein or a standard protein preterm infant formula.
Babies will be fed the assigned formula between the time they achieve full enteral feeds and hospital discharge, for a minimum of 3 weeks. The weight gain (g/d) will be measured and compared between groups. Feeding tolerance, protein-energy status and body composition between the study groups will also be analysed.
After discharge, babies will be fed a post-discharge preterm infant formula (PDF) between hospital discharge and 3 m corrected age.

Syndromes and a Century, 2006
In Syndromes and a Century, Apichatpong Weerasethakul revisits the bifurcated structure of his earlier feature films, Blissfully Yours and Tropical Malady as well as the fragmented, dissociative visual and aural images of his experimental short, The Relentless Fury of the Pounding Waves to create a languid, lyrical, organic, and contemplative exposition on the malleability and impermanence of a person's sense of place, a reality defined by a conflation of past and present, located both in the concreteness of geography and the ephemerality of memory. A chronicle of the parallel lives and quotidian encounters of a pair of physicians (presumably based on the filmmaker's parents) as well as an enterprising dentist named Dr. Ple (Arkanae Cherkam) who moonlights as a traditional ballad singer - ambiguously unfolding in either contemporaneity or temporal ellipsis - a female country doctor named Dr. Toey (Nantarat Sawaddikul) and a male city doctor and recently discharged military veteran named Dr. Nohng (Jaruchai Iamaram), the film is also an illustration of the recursiveness and atemporality of human behavior that not only reflects the intrinsic (and intuitive) repetition in the performance of mundane rituals, but also underscores the interconnectedness of a collective consciousness enabled by the accretive cycle of spiritual reincarnation: the performance of a staff psychological evaluation and physical examination prior to assignment to a hospital ward, the interactive complications of diagnosing and treating insular (and old-fashioned) monks, the integration of traditional and modern medicine in patient treatment, the intoxication of new love, the ache of longing, the inevitability of separation. Presented through a series of allusive, often complementary images - a visual theme that is figuratively reinforced in the transfixing image of the occluding eclipse that is subsequently repeated in the industrial image of smoke suction through the flue of a hospital exhaust system undergoing renovation, as well as literally through the film's penultimate sequences shot from the basement of a hospital where prosthetic limbs are fabricated and stored (the physical complementation of a disabled patient) - the film is an evocative and impressionistic meditation on the persistence - and indefinable elusiveness - of human memory.

Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 4, No. 280. Thursday, 6 May 1993.
Date: Thursday, 6 May 93 13:47:34 EDT
Subject: Re Branagh's *Ado*
This is my second posting, but the first didn't count since it was merely
an announcement of the first Canadian screening of Branagh's *Ado.*
So now it's time for me to screw up my courage and state how I felt
about the film. I should start off by saying that as a Shakespeare
enthusiast of fairly recent vintage I've never seen *Ado* staged and
never formally studied it. I have read it a few times, however, and
have seen the BBC Time-Life version (circa 1980) which I highly
Branagh's *Ado* was admirable, hugely so, but was it all that
recommendable? Not really, except for some wonderful visuals,
including the great airborne shot of the wedding festivities at the
close. I felt a bit cheated, glad it was done but wish it hadn't been quite
so adulterated. In broad terms, the problem IMHO was simply that it
was played for laughs rather than for subtler comic thrills and chills.
Slapstick again triumphs over magic in the great world of popular
entertainment. To borrow a term from television, Branagh's *Ado*
was strictly prime time.
As someone who loved Branagh's *Henry V* maybe I was expecting
too much. I thought we were about to go over the top this time
but it didn't turn out that way. In *Henry V* I felt as if I could have
followed Branagh into any breach at any time, but there was
nothing mesmerizing about *Ado.* Branagh's Renaissance Italy was
not Shakespeare's, and the horror surrounding Hero's supposed "lack
of virtue" simply would not exist in the kind of world Branagh has
set up here. In such a lusty, sweaty, rustic world as Branagh portrays,
there could have been nothing fatal about the trick played on
Claudio. And in the absence of Shakespeare's Eden-like dreamworld,
Don John becomes merely another "melancholy malcontent"
instead of the horrendous and incomprehensible snake in the
grass we need and deserve.
Michael Keaton's portrayal of Dogberry was ridiculously self-
indulgent. If it was at all meaningful to anyone else, well I'm
afraid it went over my head. (As did Paul Budra's thoughtful
comment on Keaton's role in an earlier posting.) Dogberry's role
is a demanding one, a congenial buffoon with a heartbreaking sense
of integrity and courage, the direct opposite of Falstaff, but
Keaton's portrayal was unsympathetic, even contemptuous.
Denzel Washington was a refreshing and competent Don Pedro,
but might not Eddie (*Beverly Hills Cop*) Murphy have put a more
interesting spin on the role of Don John, with a lot of evil
grimacing and mugging rather than Keanu Reeves' unremittingly
shallow and dimwitted pout.
Also there seemed to be a lot of minor--but irritating--problems
in the editing department. Some of the scenes were insufficiently
thought out and some of the peripheral players insufficiently
directed. And why does Hero have to be bashed about so viciously?
This sort of superfluous violence against women happens so often
in movies lately that it's getting hard to discount the cynical notion
that it's thought to be good box office.
I certainly hope this movie doesn't become a kind of standard for
film versions of Shakespeare in the future. If so, something of
great value will have been lost.

Lady Gaga Gets Naked — Really Naked — In "Marry The Night" Video
Check out the video premiere of Lady Gaga's "Marry the Night"! If you think you've seen every artistic, emotional and physical angle of Gaga, as always, think again. Never failing to push her own boundaries, "Marry the Night" is a psychotic whirlwind hinting of "Black Swan," "Flashdance" and "Girl, Interrupted." There is the usual lush excess — ballet slippers with 8-inch pointers, a hat like Saturn, outfits to die for — but a more personal quality, as well.
Reminiscent of her own journey to stardom, the video follows a fallen wannabe starlet as she pushes aside her traumatic past and builds her way to the top. In addition to shadowing her own experiences, the video is also Gaga's directorial debut. She features herself in various states of emotionally vulnerability .. .sobbing, going ape shit and trashing her home, and dancing (like no one's watching!). And goodness gracious, do we see her naked. Between the thonged leotards and creative pasties, I thought I already had a pretty good idea of what Gaga looked like in the buff, but this video has eliminated any gray areas in my imagination. She's naked in a bathtub, topless in bed, topless and writhing in cheerios. And let's not forget the many, many, many (inventive) camera angles that show off her shapely derriere.

A thousand miles over the prairie in July is one of the most cheery and delightsome journeys that can be made.
And the burdensome one is toilsome, while the delightsome one is pleasurable.
It is so quiet, and my thoughts now and tan be so delightsome.
It is because joy is fugitive that it leaves us a delightsome memory.
It was a most delightsome barouche full that drove from the station.
But if these are expressions of thankful love, they are delightsome to Him.
There is a long, delightsome kiss, then Cecil sits up straight, her face full of momentous import.
Sport on the Roanoke; an even and delightsome plain, most sweet and pleasant.
His manor was so fair and so delightsome that all the world did not contain its peer.
I really think I do deserve to live in the country, it is so delightsome to me.

High power diode-pumped Nd3+ fibre laser

In the medical field high power fibre-coupled AlGaAs diode lasers operating around 800nm are already making an impact in surgery but for more specialised applications high powers at other wavelengths are required. It is an attractive idea to develop active fibres as add-ons to such fibre coupled diode systems increasing the range of applications of such devices at little extra cost and minimal additional complexity.
Rare-earth-doped optical fibres exhibit the traditional advantages of a glass laser host of broad emission and absorption spectra but without the usual associated thermal problems. With fibre lasers wavelength selection and temperature stabilisation of the pump diode is unnecessary, and the emission spectra allows for broad tuning. Double-clad fibres comprising a doped core, usually single-moded located within a large multimode waveguide enable efficient pumping of fibre lasers with diode ways or diode bars. Fibre lasers can thus be considered as simple wavelength convertors and brightness enhancers for the high power but poorly specified output of diode sources.
In the this paper we describe a multiwatt Nd3+ fibre laser pumped via a second cladding by the DIOMED 25 laser diode unit. This multi diode array source is designed for coupling up to 25 Watts of diode power into a plastic-clad silica fibre of 400μm diameter. The laser fibre which is a double-clad structure fabricated from lead-silicate glasses is interchangeable with the normal PCS delivery fibre. The device operates at 1.058μm with a slope efficiency >50% and a 150 times brightness enhancement. This laser though useful in itself is also a key intermediate laser for generation of high powers at other wavelengths. Tandem pumping of Tm3+ and Er3+/Yb3+ fibre lasers at 1.058μm enables efficient generation of 2.0μm and 1.55μm radiation respectively. In addition the Nd3+ laser can be operated close to 1.3μm and there are prospects for in-fibre frequency doubling of the 1.06μm line to generate a high power source in the green.

If a complete novice can get an Oscar nomination, why bother with all that NIDA training? Gary Maddox reports.
Even for Hollywood, it's a remarkable story. A New Zealand schoolgirl with no acting experience, who told a white lie to win a film role for a little-known director, is nominated for an Academy Award at 13.
Joining the illustrious company of Diane Keaton, Charlize Theron, Samantha Morton and Naomi Watts up for best actress, this slight newcomer has edged out such blue-chip talent as Nicole Kidman and Scarlett Johansson. One Oscars pundit called the nomination of Castle-Hughes, who plays a girl challenging Maori tradition in Whale Rider, "a jawdropper". And he was not wrong.
Castle-Hughes, who has an Australian father and Maori mother, hardly seemed to be on the radar during the American awards season. Like Watts, she was not even among the 11 nominees in the two best actress categories at the Golden Globes.
But things changed when the Academy Award nominations were announced this week. She joins the young talents who seem to emerge at the Oscars every few years including Anna Paquin, who won the best supporting actress Oscar aged 11 for The Piano.
Shirley Temple won a juvenile award aged six, but Tatum O'Neal is the youngest, at 10, to win a competitive Oscar as best supporting actress for Paper Moon. Other young nominees have been Jodie Foster (Taxi Driver), Justin Henry (Kramer vs Kramer) and Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense).
Castle-Hughes's nomination raises fascinating questions - how can someone who has never acted before deliver such a compelling performance? What is it about untrained performers - including the three young stars of Rabbit-Proof Fence in this country - that makes them so good? What could years at acting school improve? After all, Watts and Anthony LaPaglia, who won a Golden Globe for the television series Without A Trace this week, were knocked back by NIDA.
Obviously, casting the right person is paramount. Whale Rider's director, Niki Caro, said last year she knew her lead actress would not be found on any agents' books. "I didn't want a kid who would act their way through it," she said. "I wanted the kid."
The search involved 10,000 girls. A talent scout approached Castle-Hughes, then aged 11, at her Auckland school. She was asked whether she was a Maori, could swim and ride a bike.
"I couldn't swim, but I said yes because I was really curious," she said while visiting Sydney for the film's premiere last year.
The director of NIDA, John Clark, sees the performance coming from Castle-Hughes as God-given talent. There are always instinctive actors, with a personal magnetism, who can deliver great performances, he says. But even gifted young actors from previous eras, such as Mickey Rooney and Shirley Temple, tended to give the same performance in every film.
Clark says the same can apply to young untrained actors performing brilliantly in television dramas. Once their character is written out, they might quit acting because they lack the skills to jump into theatre or film and do not understand how the business works.
"You can't teach people talent. What you can teach people are skills."
The Australian director Phil Noyce, who drew winning performances from Everlyn Sampi, Laura Monaghan and Tianna Sansbury in Rabbit-Proof Fence, believes Castle-Hughes's performance came from a mix of natural talent, instinct, direction and typecasting.
"As does every performance, remembering the right casting is 80 per cent of any performance. But it mustn't be forgotten the child successfully pulled off a character who is wise and strong beyond her years, who inspires a whole community, so it was a difficult role."
For Rabbit-Proof Fence, Noyce cast girls who were very like the characters they had to play - "Everlyn being feisty and determined, Laura being a classic dreamer and follower and Tianna being very much the acolyte in real life. But I must say, having met Keisha Castle-Hughes, she doesn't seem in real life anything like the character she plays."
One thing is clear - it's no accident she came to the attention of Oscar voters. Noyce says the American distributor of Whale Rider rented a cinema near his Los Angeles office for a month of free screenings, six times a day, for potential voters.
Like just about everyone else seeking a nomination, Castle-Hughes was paraded for interviews, screenings, parties and Q and A sessions in what is now an election campaign-style approach to winning a nomination.

US Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY) and US Rep. Judy Biggert (R-IL), held a press conference on March 30, 2011, on Capitol Hill to announce the reintroduction of the National Women's History Act. The Bill authorizes the National Women's History Museum (NWHM) to purchase, at fair market value, a site currently owned by the federal government to construct a museum dedicated to women's history. The site is located at 12th Street and Independence Avenue, SW. The funds that are necessary to construct and operate NWHM will be raised privately, through contributions from donors, corporations and foundation supporters. The same day, US Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) reintroduced the Bill in the Senate.
Museum board members, supporters and coalition members came together for the press conference to participate in what was a dynamic and spirited show of support for the bill on Capitol Hill. The program included remarks by Museum President and CEO, Joan Wages, Rep. Maloney (D-NY), Rep. Biggert (R-IL), Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH) and Rep. Janice Schakowsky (D-IL), as well as Lisa Maatz (American Association of University Women), Robin Read (National Foundation for Women Legislators), Susan Scanlan (National Council of Women's Organizations), and General Wilma Vaught (Women in Military Service for America Memorial Foundation, Inc.).
The National Women's History Museum is dedicated to honoring the many contributions by women that have influenced our nation and shaped the world.
You can help by calling/writing to your elected officials and informing them that you support the bill to authorize the Museum to purchase the land to build a National Women's History Museum — we are not asking for government support, and a women's history museum is long overdue!
You can also help us by becoming a charter member, hosting a cultivation event, and enlisting the help of your corporation to join as a corporate supporter. For more information, visit our website: http://www.nwhm.org/support-nwhm/ or send an email to email@example.com.

Hello again...
Well, gosh, this is... you know... it.
After years of speculation, with the last set of Blair elections behind us, we can now say with certainty that we are on the cusp of a new political era.
Next week, Mr Blair will announce his resignation, and tell us exactly when he's going.
The hand of history is poised to leap off the shoulder of Mr Blair and onto... well, everything points to Mr Brown's shoulder, but you just never can tell in politics.
New Broon?
So what kind of party will Gordon Brown inherit?
Is Labour in meltdown after a disappointing set of local election results?
We'll be reflecting on the results of Thursday's elections and looking ahead towards the Gordon Brown premiership.
I'll be kicking over the traces with the Home Secretary and all round political big beast, John Reid.
Well, who knows?
At the time of writing, it's unclear whether Labour or the SNP will come out as the largest party in Scotland.
What deals will be done, and what will be the reaction to so many spoilt papers and electronic counting troubles?
We'll have the latest.
United we stand
And a new super Union was born this week - but what might Unite (the result of a merger between Amicus and the TGWU) want from the new Labour leader?
Derek Simpson, the joint General Secretary of the new super union, will join me live.
And perhaps most exciting of all - we'll reveal the winner of our Embarrassing Election moments competition!
Of course, if you can't wait¿ you can watch it here - and it's your last chance to vote.
The Politics Show Needs you!
Next week, we'll be looking at what 10 years of Tony Blair has meant in your part of the country.
And we're asking you to nominate Mr Blair's greatest achievement and his greatest mistake - you can do so by visiting our website at LINK here.
Tell us what you hated, what you think has got better, what makes your blood boil.
We'll publish a selection of your thoughts on the web page, and we might even have a vote - that's the kind of programme we are.
We, at least, don't "do" coronations...
Will we fit it all in? Will we send Max Cotton to Bury to ask if the Tories are making sufficient progress?
Tune in at 12 noon Sunday to find out - the roast can wait... the best crackling is on the Politics Show

NEW YORK (AP) A former Olympic sprinter from the Caribbean confessed that he raped four women and a teenage girl during a four-year period after stalking them in the city's parks, authorities said Monday.
Alvin Henry, a member of the 400-meter relay team for Trinidad and Tobago at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, was arrested Sunday near Prospect Park in Brooklyn by police who matched him to a composite sketch of the rape suspect .
The 30-year-old runner was arrested on charges of rape, sexual misconduct and sexual abuse, police said. He was being arraigned Monday, and information about his lawyer wasn't immediately available.
Brian Lewis, secretary general of the Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee, confirmed the man was the same Alvin Henry who had run for Trinidad and Tobago.
"There's no denying that," Lewis said, adding Henry had represented the country in other races.
Lewis said he didn't know what Henry was doing in the United States. Henry lives in Queens.
"He stopped running a couple of years ago," Lewis said. "He just dropped off the scene."
Police said Henry attacked three women in Baisley Park and Roy Wilkins Park in Queens and two others in Prospect Park, including a 15-year-old girl in April. In at least four of the attacks, police said the women had been walking with men. When the men left, Henry pounced, police said.
The latest assault took place June 15 in Prospect Park, where police said Henry brandished a gun and raped a 34-year-old woman. After that attack, investigators were able to link it to others.

Cardinal Health settles drug distribution case
The DEA suspended Cardinal Health, the country's second-largest drug distributor, from selling and shipping powerful painkillers and other drugs from its Lakeland, Fla., facility for two years as part of a settlement reached Tuesday.
The Drug Enforcement Administration sought to revoke Cardinal's license in February, accusing the company of selling excessive amounts — more than 12 million oxycodone pain pills — to four Florida pharmacies over three years. The DEA said the company did not report suspicious orders or visit the chain pharmacies that purchased large amounts of the drugs.
The DEA also suspended controlled substances licenses for two CVS pharmacies in Sanford, Fla., which purchased millions of oxycodone pills from Cardinal. A judge is expected to rule on the CVS case this month.
"Cardinal Health is not above the law," said Joe Rannazzisi, DEA deputy assistant administrator. "With this agreement, it admits that it neglected its vital responsibility to prevent the diversion of controlled substance medications."
While the agreement resolves the licensing issue, the DEA said it may pursue civil penalties, including fines, against the company. The Dublin, Ohio-based company had revenue of more than $100 billion in 2011.
This is the second time the DEA has taken action against Cardinal. In 2008, Cardinal paid a $34 million fine after the DEA accused it of shipping excessive amounts of hydrocodone, another powerful painkiller, to Internet pharmacies. As part of that settlement, the DEA suspended licenses at three distribution facilities for a year.
Cardinal admitted Tuesday it had "inadequate" control over some of its controlled drugs and had not fully complied with the 2008 agreement.
"This agreement allows us to put this matter behind us, and just as important, will clear the way for a more productive dialogue about how we and others in the health care and regulatory community can work together to prevent the abuse and misuse of prescription drugs," Cardinal CEO George Barrett said.
The five-year agreement applies to all 28 of Cardinal's distribution facilities and requires the company to review orders for the controlled drugs, visit pharmacies to look for signs of diversion and hire extra field inspectors for Florida pharmacies.
The Lakeland facility can still distribute non-controlled drugs and medical supplies.

Poison and Ratt will join forces in a summer tour to give the re-shakeups rock fans have been dying for.
For the first time in 8 years, Ratt and Poison will hit the road together again. The itinerary is part of their summer tour that begins June 13 at Bi Lo Center, Greenville, S.C. and ends August 19 at Coors Amphitheatre, Denver.
Troy Blakely of the Agency of Performing Arts said that there will be about 50 to 60 dates within the schedule where 30 to 35 of them are comprised of various festivals, fairs and indoor shows. Among the confirmed ones are gigs at Birmingham, Ala.'s City Stages on June 16, Bay City, Mich.'s Bay City River Roar on June 22, Pryor, Okla.'s Rocklahoma on July 13 and Sturgis, S.D.'s Buffalo Chip on August 5.
There is also a report that Great White will jot in the middle of the trek, but no official confirmation has been released regarding this. One thing for sure, this tour will be in line with Poison's June 5 released album which is slated to be named "POISON'D". Meanwhile for Ratt, this tour will be the confirmation of the new lineup that has been pretty messy following the resignation of Jizzy Pearl in December 2006.

An hour later, a hedge at a property in Coltham Road was set on fire, causing extensive damage.
In the third incident, it was reported that an attempt had been made to set fire to a garden shed and an outhouse at a house in Cirencester Road on the same night.
Police are linking the first two incidents and investigating a possible link with the third.
Anyone with information should call 101, quoting incident number 72 of 16/3/14.

Manic depression, also known as bipolar disorder in recent days, is a major mood disorder characterized by hypomanic or manic episodes (deviation from one's usual mood along with abnormally high energy levels). Mania involves sleeplessness, along with psychosis, hallucinations, rage, grandiose delusions or paranoia. Mania or hypomania isn't usually harmful to the patient and they might exhibit increased capacity for work and creativity. Depressive episodes however, can be debilitating and often life threatening as the person becomes self-destructive and suicidal in many instances.
The extent of mood swings can vary from extreme to very mild. They can occur progressively or suddenly and might last for few days to weeks. Patients affected by bipolar disorder may experience disturbances in thinking apart from depressive or manic episodes. Distortions of perception and impaired social functioning are also not uncommon. The cause of bipolar disorder is not fully understood like most mental health conditions and is often thought to be hereditary.
The extent of the seriousness of the bipolar symptoms varies from person to person. In some people, the disorder is not full blown and they don't exhibit all the symptoms. Others who aren't that lucky might have to be hospitalized multiple times in their lives as the symptoms creep into their work and personal life and make living a normal life a tough challenge.
Psychotic symptoms such as disorganized thinking, hallucinations and delusions might make a person do things that demand the urgency of hospitalization to keep them safe from their suicidal impulses. These symptoms might need to be urgently addressed by a psychiatrist and with the help of medications, the person might be able to regain control of their lives.
The symptoms of bipolar disorder are many and can be mainly categorized into two (sometimes overlapping) categories of mania or hypomania and depression:
Manic symptoms include:
- Grandiose delusions (delusion of grandeur)
- Racing thoughts which are often disconnected
- Sense of euphoria or false elation
- Irritability without cause
- Hampered social functioning
- Increased sexual inclination and risky sexual behavior
- Hyperactivity
- Increase in talking volume or speed
- Impaired judgment
- Reduced sleep requirements owing to extra energy levels
- Increased productivity and creativity
Depressive symptoms include:
- Abnormal eating patterns like over or under-eating to the extent of severe medical complications accompanied by drastic changes in weight
- Difficulty in concentration, making decisions and remembering
- Lack of energy or fatigue
- Contemplating about death for prolonged periods of time and suicidal behavior
- Oversleeping, insomnia or early awakening
- Persistent pessimism
- Irritability and restlessness
- Feeling of hopeless and negative attitude
Mood stabilizers, such as lithium are commonly employed to treat bipolar disorder. Anticonvulsants, benzodiazepines and anti psychotics can also be used in the treatment. Along with medications, support from family and friends is of the utmost importance as they need to help provide all the support required in making the person functional and healthy. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a psychiatrist.
