Dr. Nancy G. Guerra Professor of Psychology Associate Provost for International Programs Director, Institute for Global Studies University of Delaware Nancy G. Guerra. My research focuses on understanding and preventing children's aggression and behavior problems of youth, particularly youth violence. I also am very interested in the role of culture in the etiology of behavior and implications for the design and implementation of prevention programs in the U.S. and internationally. My work is grounded in social cognitive theory, emphasizing the role of children's thought processes and beliefs in determining and modifying behavior. I have been involved in the development and evaluation of several large scale prevention programs. Recently, as part of a CDCfunded Academic Center of Excellence on Youth Violence Prevention, I was involved in the implementation and evaluation of an evidence based parent child interaction therapy program for lowincome immigrant Latino families, which led to the development of a home visitation child development parent training program, Madres a Madres, to address the unique needs of immigrant families. I also developed a competence based cognitive behavioral intervention for adolescents, Positive Life Changes, that currently is being evaluated in alternative school and juvenile justice settings in California and Connecticut. An important focus of my research is on the application of child development and 4
5 prevention research across different cultural settings and internationally. I have worked on projects funded by The, The Interamerican Development Bank, USAID, and other donor agencies over the past several years. These projects have emphasized enhancing children's development, improving educational and youth service settings, and preventing problem behaviors in Latin American and the Caribbean. Countries I have worked in include Colombia, Chile, El Salvador, Mexico, Venezuela, Jamaica, and Trinidad.

|Bank Analysis Five Bank Stock Bargains
4. Regulatory Fears Are Overblown Probably the biggest surprise about the regulatory reform legislation that passed the Senate earlier this month was a provision sponsored by Blanche Lincoln (D., Ark.) that would force banks to spin off their derivatives businesses.
Derivatives are a huge profit center for banks like Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase. It is not entirely clear whether the Senate legislation would eliminate their ability to trade, sell and design derivatives altogether, or merely sharply curtail those activities. In any case, the result would be disastrous, and a JPMorgan report Thursday estimates the Lincoln provision would halve the 2011 return on equity for Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. Even that dire prediction may be too sanguine. One former Federal Reserve official I spoke with fears the provision would make it impossible for banks to hedge their mortgage portfolios, which would create big problems for home lending in the U.S. It also could raise questions about the ability of multinational corporations in a wide range of industries to hedge against commodity and currency risks. Many of these fears are, to an extent, priced into stocks, and into bank stocks in particular. If the Lincoln provision becomes law, the stocks will trade down further, but if the impact is really so dire as to shut off home lending, or keep McDonald's ( MCD) from doing business around the globe, Congress will be forced to fix it. More likely, though, is that the provision never becomes law. The White House downplays it and House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D., Mass.) doesn't seem to like it much. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke has also opposed it. Lawmakers are essentially just working out a way to kill it without seeming like they are sucking up to the banks. They will find it eventually, and when they do, bank stocks will rally. 3. Low Tax Bills Ahead As the accompanying graphic shows, many banks won't be paying taxes for a year or, in some cases, many years. That is especially true for banks that lost a lot of money during the crisis, which is to say, nearly every bank! All the potential write-offs mean yesterday's losers reap big savings when they become profitable again, and few industries lost more money than banking in recent years.

Sky Power Systems has been designing and installing solar-electric systems for Bay Area homes and businesses since 2001. The company handles all phases of its clients' solar projects, including design, permits, installation, maintenance and PG&E interconnection paperwork.
President Bob Winn sees Sky Power Systems as a boutique, custom-style solar shop—each system is specifically designed to meet the individual customer's needs. The company's installation teams treat each project as if they're working on their own homes, says Mr. Winn, with attention to detail and a focus on reliability, performance, and appearance.
Sky Power Systems takes pride in being selected as one of the few SunPower Elite Dealers. SunPower makes high-performance solar panels that deliver up to 50 percent more power than conventional panels and are more reliable over the long run. "They're also the best-looking solar panels around and have the best warranty," says Mr. Winn. "We're very aware of the appearance of what we install, focusing on both aesthetics and high performance." To view examples of Sky Power Systems' past and recent projects, read customer testimonials or find out how to get a free site evaluation, Mr. Winn invites people to visit
"We believe in providing customers with the very best service and reliable products that will stand the test of time. We treat each customer like they're our only customer."

If you decide to make the switch to solar-electric power, make sure the contractor you hire knows every part of the solar process.
Bob Winn, owner of Sky Power Solar, has seen a rush of companies and individuals getting into the solar power business in recent years. While he welcomes the interest in solar-electric systems, he doesn't necessarily think all these newcomers...

"They do good work.""They're efficient, fast, and do what they say they'll do."
"They know what they are doing.""They are very efficient and thorough."
"They were very attentive and efficient. They seemed to know exactly what they were doing.""I would say the people who came out and did the work were very agreeable and informative about what they were doing."

Drake Alexander Michel
This online memorial was created in loving memory of Drake Alexander Michel, whose life story is told throughout this memorial website. Please sign Drake's guest book and let us know you came to visit. We will remember Drake forever.
It all started when we found out we were expecting. My husband ( Burt ) and I were so excited. It took us a year to conceive Drake. From there we had the normal Dr visits. We went in and had our twenty week ultrasound wanting to know the normal things. Are we having a boy or girl? Is he / she healthy? That was when our world changed forever. The technician scanned as usual and then she left the room. I told my husband and sister that something was wrong. The tech came back in with my doctor ( Dr Katherine Williams ) and she said that our baby had a hernia. Not just any hernia though a DIAPHRAGMATIC HERNIA. (Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) is a birth defect that occurs when the diaphragm does not fully form, allowing organs to enter the chest cavity preventing lung growth. CDH strikes 1 in every 2500 babies1, of all races, religious backgrounds, and financial status - no matter how well the prenatal care. )
My doctor then referred us to a maternal fetal medicine doctor who confirmed that it was a diaphragmatic hernia. I freaked, I cried so much for my poor baby. I went home and researched as much as I could. Scaring myself more and more. There wasn't a day that went by that my husband and I didnt mourn that our child had this devistating defect. My pregnancy was anything but normal. We couldnt enjoy the normal things because it wasn't normal. Our child could die. We went and met with another MFM doctor at Ochsner of New Orleans. We went for our scans. Dr robichaeux checked Drakes lung size each time. We were so excited to get these scans. Just to see our little miracle on that screen so peaceful was overwhelming with love for this little person that we didnt even know yet. From there we had a MRI done only to tell us that our babies intestines, bowel,stomach and spleen was in his chest cavity. His hernia was on the left which meant that his lungs were squished and underdeveloped. His heart was pushed all the way to the right. We also had a fetal echocardiogram, where they checked drakes heart. Our visit was with Dr White. He was nice enough to explain that everything looked good. We then had our appointment with our pediactric surgeon Dr Vincent Adolph. He let us know from the start that we were in this together. He let us know that Drake may need a gortex patch to repair the hernia. I was in denial I told him that my baby didnt need a patch that everything was going to be fine. I told him that he just had to sew muscle to muscle.( like I was qualifield to tell my surgeon what to do ) The real excitement started in December 2007. I woke up in the middle of the night bleeding. Burt rushed me to the hospital. They later sent me home on bed rest. Then January rolled around and I woke up bleeding more than the last. I again went to the ER and they kept me for a few nights and stopped the bleeding and contractions. I went home on strict bed rest. Not knowing the worst was yet to come I bled again on February 5th 2008. I went to the ER and was admitted overnight and the next morning they sent me via ambulance to ochsner medical center. I stayed there having 3 more episodes of heavy bleeding and contractions. They finally decided to induce labor on Monday Feb 18th 2008. They wanted to make sure that all the medical staff was there for Drake when he arrived. By the way my doctor was out of town. So Dr Longos delivered Drake Alexander Michel on February 18, 2008 at 2:35pm. He weighed 7pounds 14 ounces, & 19 3/4 inches long!!! My poor baby tried to take a breath only able to let out a small gurgle. Burt was so excited to see him. We just looked at each other with tears in our eyes and said "We did it ! We got him here safely at 38 weeks." We had so much family waiting to see our miracle.
Our Little Doodlebug
Finally the day that we were so afraid of but so joyfull at the same time was here. Burt and my dad was the first to go up and visit with Drake. They came back down with pictures for me. I was so amazed at how beautiful my little boy was. He had this beautiful head of black hair. I couldnt stop saying " MY BABY HAS HAIR !!!!) My first born had fuzz and it was blonde. My son Shawn,My mom and dad, my sister and her girls, My cousin hope & her fiance, & my friend Dara were there to welcome our little guy.
My cousin shawn and her fiance gant came to visit that night. ( gant works at ochsner where I delivered. ) I tried to get up to the NICU at this point. It was about 9:00pm. I was so sick from the combination of the drugs and the emotions going on inside. They went up to see him and came back down to let me know how he was doing. He was stable. At about 5:00 am I woke my husband up to go upstairs. I FINALLY got to see my baby. Erica was the nurse taking care of him. She later became one of my favorite nurses. He was gorgeous ! All I could do was stare at him. Erica let me know that so far he is stable. She was so nice to me, I felt comfortable leaving my son in her care. We knew that most cdh babies have what they call a honeymoon period. Its the first 24 hrs after they are born. The next day Dr Adolph came in and let us know that Drake was having difficulty keeping his saturation levels up. He let us know that Drake will probably have to go on ECMO. Ecmo is a heart and lung bypass machine. ( see CDH page )
So at around 6pm on February 19th drake had to be placed on ecmo. His heart and lungs needed a break so they could heal themselves. Drake also had PPHN.(see CDH page) In other words the valve that usually closes in a babys heart at birth didnt close when drake was born. Drake had his good days and bad days on ecmo. My cousins fiance gant worked the ecmo machine a few years ago. He came back up to sit and work drakes pump. It really meant alot to Burt and I that he was there. He let us know in terms that we could understand how drake was doing and how everything worked. I dont know if gant and shawn will ever know how much we appreciated them. Drakes oxygenater pump on the ecmo machine had clotted off. They had to change it out which meant they had to take him off for a few minutes to replace it. Burt and I had gone to the hotel room and the phone rang and the Dr had told us what had happened and what they had to do. We immediately rushed back up to the nicu and waited to see our son. Dr. Adolph came out and let us know that Drake did great. He was impressed how well he did off of the pump. Drake stayed on ecmo for a few more days and finally after 15 days, March 5th they were able to wean him off and do his repair (surgery) off of ecmo. Surgery went great. Dr Adolph told us that Drakes stomach, large and small intestines, spleen, and bowels were in his chest. ( YIKES !!!) He was able to put it back where it all belonged but Drake needed a gortex patch to close up the diaphram. At this point drakes chances of survival were great. His PPHN was subsiding and his lung function was great. Burt and I were the happiest people around at this point. We couldnt stop smiling and letting people know that our little fighter was winning his battle. Drake was doing great. He was steadily improving. He had to have a chest tube inserted after surgery. It was there to drain the usual fluid after surgery. He also had problems with his blood clotting to much. So everyday he had to have his IV in a different spot. He was also on Heprin. Well Drakes chest tube kept draining. They soon had to put one on the right, because the fluid had now started building up around and compromising his right lung. The doctors decided to send the fluid to the lab and have it checked. The results came back saying that drake had developed chylothorax ( see cdh page ). The doctors decided to put him on a med that treats chylothorax, Octriotide. Well after a few weeks on this med nothing happened. Drake was still draining fluid like crazy. Dr Adolph decided to have drake go through another surgery to put a stint in his artery. It had clotted off. So he had the surgery and It went well they were able to get the stint in after about 5 hrs. We waited to see if that would help the drainage stop. It didnt the fluid just kept coming. Dr Adolph then said that he could try one other surgery. He would try and surgically close the valve. Well when the Dr came out he said that surgery didnt go as well as he would have liked it to go. He was able to stop some of the drainage but not all of it. All we could do was wait and see. This was April 3rd. Well he was very swollen after having these surgerys so close together. Saturday he was struggling to keep his saturation levels up. I knew in the back of my mind what was going to happen if this didnt get better.
Well Sunday morning I called the NICU to see how Drake was doing and the nurse let me know that he was on 100 % oxygen and his saturation level was in the 70s. We immediately rushed up to the NICU and the doctor let us know that Drake wasnt peeing and that he had some fluid inside his lungs. He tried one more med to try and get him to pee. It didnt work so we had to make a decision. We could put him on a larger vent which would only prolong things or let our Angel go. Burt and I just said enough is enough. We chose to hold our beautiful son and let him know how much we loved him before he left. When the nurse gave him to me It was a bitter sweet moment. I finally got to hold my baby for the first time and I had to say goodbye at the same time. He held my finger so tight. In that moment he was gone. I think he was waiting for me to get to hold him before he left. I will never forget that moment. They cleaned him up and took the tubes out and brought him to us in a room. Burt , my mom , and I held our Angel for the first and last time. My sister and dad got to say goodbye.We kissed him and the nurse took him back. I never thought that I would be leaving that hospital without my baby. I guess GOD had greater plans for him.
We decided to have Drake cremated and bring him home where he belongs. We had people over to celebrate Drakes life. He will always be in our hearts.

Q:Will the inverter come with a cigarette lighter plug.
2 answers
A:Very Doubtful. This inverter draws such amperage at load it would need to be connected directly to the car battery. It would blow fuses were it operated off the lighter circuit. I do not speak from experience with this particular inverter so I could be wrong.
A:No, this Solar 3000W Power Inverter Part number SOLPI30000X does not come with cigarette lighter plug.

The Grant County Braves showed up ready for district play against the Walton Verona Bearcats on Jan. 5.
"We knew this game was going to be a battle and being a district game we needed to put up a win," said Braves Coach Jim Hicks.
Despite the Bearcats' good defensive and offensive from the first ball drop until the end of regulation play, the Braves fought hard and brought home a 66-54 win.
Recently, students from Williamstown Independent Schools as well as others across the state participated in the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's 2012 Adopt-a-Highway poster contest.
"The purpose of the contest is to increase environmental awareness among children," said Transportation Secretary Mike Hancock. "We hope to educate our young people about the damaging effects of litter, and to change attitudes and behaviors about littering."
When Carla Marston, the music teacher at Mason-Corinth Elementary, received her copy of KMEA's quarterly, state-wide magazine, the "Bluegrass Music News," one of her students was on the cover.

Pearl necklaces are usually perfunctory and tame. But not this vintage faux pearl necklace. It kicks its heels with a sassy triple tassel at the bottom.
This is quality costume jewelry with the 2mm to 6mm pearls graduating in size up the strand to the sterling silver fishhook clasp. The sautoir of teardrop-shaped pearls hang in three bunches that together, make for one big playful tassel.
The necklace measures 15 inches around so that the tassel lies at the base of the neck. The tassel hangs 2 3/4 inches long. The clasp is marked STERLING. The pearls all have a lustrous ivory color. Overall in excellent condition. It's something different for the pearl girl.

text: By STEVE ROTHWELLNEW YORK (AP) â¿¿ The Dow logged its best start to the year in almost two decades. Stocks rallied in the first week of the year after U.S. lawmakers reached a deal to avoid the "fiscal cliff," and then pushed higher toward record levels as optimism about the housing market recovery grew. Decent company earnings for the fourth quarter and an improving job market also helped lift markets. The Dow Jones industrial average ended the month up 5.8 percent, its strongest January since 1994, according to S&P Capital IQ data. The Standard & Poor's 500 finished the month 5 percent higher, its best start to the year since 1997. "There's not a whole lot of bears left here," said Jeff Hirsch, the editor of the Stock Trader's Almanac, adding that the market may struggle to gain further in February. Stocks have also benefited as investors have put money into equities in January. By one measure, the monthly flow into stock funds was the largest in nine years. About $51 billion in net deposits was moved into stock funds and so-called hybrid funds, which invest in a mix of stocks and bonds, consultant Strategic Insight said Thursday. That's the most since $56 billion flowed in during January 2004. On Thursday, stocks drifted lower as investors digested more earnings results and reports on the economy. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 49 points to 13,860.58. The S&P 500 dropped 4 points to 1,498.11 and the Nasdaq composite was little changed at 3,142.13. The Dow is just 304 points from its all-time high. Among companies reporting earnings Thursday, UPS Inc., the world's biggest package-delivery company and an economic bellwether, fell 2.4 percent to $79.29. The company's fourth quarter was hurt by weak global trade, and it forecast 2013 results below expectations.

My Dad died on April 21, 2010. It was the worst day of my life. My Dad had been ill for some time with heart issues and diabetes. He was the greatest man I have ever known. My parents were divorced when I was small and my Dad had remarried. His wife didn't like my sisters and I so it made if very difficult to take care of my Dad on his final days. She isn't the caring type of person like my Dad and sisters are.
We never got to go through my Dad's clothes or belongings due to his wife locked us out of the house the day that he died. I have a couple pairs of his socks and I wear them all the time in the evenings when I am home. I watch videos that we have of him from time to time. It's nice to see him moving and talking.
My Dad loved us so much and was always there for us to talk to and help us with any problem that we might have in life. He was the center of our family and now there is no one to take over that position.
I don't know how I'm going to make it through the holidays this year. I just want to curl up in a corner and forget the world. It has made me not care about so many things anymore that I always thought were so important.
We lost my brother-in-law three weeks before my Dad died and that was very sudden. He died of a heart attack on March 27, 2010. This has made things doubly difficult. My poor sister has had to try to deal with both of these losses.
I now worry about my son all the time. I worry that something could happen to him and I don't know what I would do then. He is all I really have now.

Was the time out to late
So as i was getting vince ready to go so we can get haiden and a kid i babysit for from school logan was in living room. I left my soda on the floor. As soon as i cam out of vinces room, logan took off fast and hid himself. I look at him and my soda bottle, which had its cap off and i know i had the cap on. So he took a drink. Knowing i had no time to put him in timeout i told him as soon as we get back he was in timeout.
We go and get the kids. We get home. I carry him in the house and put him on the bottom of my basement stairs. Before i walked up i told him he was down there for drinking my soda without permisson. I walked up and closed the door.
Once his time was up i went and got him. I again told him why i put him there, and had him say sorry. I hugged him and that was it.
BUT I also think explaining why he was on time out was the right thing to do, I just worry that even with the reminder he may not have known what you were talking about.

And let's be honest here. Somebody has to be the Bear Report Dud of the Week whether we like it or not. After Sunday's 41-10 thrashing of the 49ers at Soldier Field, we had to look a little harder to find our dubious winner. When the offense sets franchise records, the defense suffocates once again, and the special teams completely dominate field position, we have to get creative. We can't exactly give it to the peanut vendors.
All that aside, Angelo does have some questions to answer regarding the contract status of head coach Lovie Smith. Currently in the third year of a four-year deal, he is the lowest paid coach in the NFL. This may be his first chance to be the top dog on Sundays, but based on his body of work, Smith has proven that he is a leader of men and knows what it takes to get the job done in this league.
All signs point to Smith getting his extension and a hefty raise, so why exactly is Angelo so slow to pull the trigger? The bye week would have been the perfect time not only to reward last season's NFL Coach of the Year, but it could have helped erase the bad taste in the organization's collective mouth after that ugly win in Arizona.
The Bears are a perfect 7-0 so far in 2006. They are currently the highest scoring team in the league on offense. They also lead the league in scoring defense. The passing game is rejuvenated. The running game is starting to resemble last year's punishing attack. The defensive line is wreaking havoc up front. The linebackers are making plays from sideline to sideline. The secondary isn't giving up big plays and supports the run as well as any unit in football. The special teams completely shut down the opponent's return game. Robbie Gould hasn't missed a kick all season. Brad Maynard is punting as well as ever.
And what about Smith's coaching staff? Defensive coordinator Ron Rivera is a red-hot prospect and almost certain to be a head coach elsewhere next season. Offensive coordinator Ron Turner has turned a pitiful passing team into one of the most potent in the NFL. Quarterbacks coach Wade Wilson is helping morph Rex Grossman into an All-Pro before our very eyes. Special teams coach Dave Toub has made stars out of the likes of Brendon Ayanbadejo and Adrian Peterson.
What does Smith have left to prove?
Pull out the McCaskey checkbook, Mr. Angelo. He certainly has earned it. Extending Smith's contract will not only make the head coach look good, it will make the entire Bears organization look good.
It's time to get that man a pen and tell him to sign on the dotted line.
