One in Five British Abortion Clinics Breaking the Law
According to a government investigation, as many as 20 percent of Britain's abortion clinics may be guilty of breaking the law, Baptist Press reports. A series of unannounced raids found that more than 50 of 250 private and National Health Service clinics were in violation of the law; many clinics were failing to provide appropriate counseling, and doctors were found to be falsifying and signing consent forms before actually assessing women and their situations. "I was appalled," said Health Secretary Andrew Lansley. "Because if it happens, it is pretty much people engaging in a culture of both ignoring the law and trying to give themselves the right to say that although Parliament may have said this, we believe in abortion on demand." The government raids followed a hidden-camera investigation by The Daily Telegraph that showed doctors indicating willingness to abort unborn children based on their sex and to provide false information on written forms to hide the reason for the abortions.
Police Raid Christian Bookstore in Shanxi Province, China
Police and government officials launched a surprise raid on a lawfully operating Christian bookstore in China's Shanxi province last week, confiscating all the store's stock and taking its managers in for police questioning, China Aid reports. The Grace Like Rain bookstore, which sells Christian books, arts-and-crafts materials and audio-visual products, has been in business for four years and has all the relevant licenses and permissions to operate. The total value of the confiscated items -- including personal items like bank books, cell phones and computers -- was about 300,000 yuan (US$47,680). According to one of the store managers, Huizi, none of the officials showed any identification during the entire raid, and they threatened, insulted and verbally abused her. During the police interrogation, she was physically punished and suffered injuries. She said although the experience was frightening and stressful, she was greatly comforted by the prayers and concern of Christians around her as well as "God's miraculous protection."
Study: Abstinence Education Reduces Teen Sexual Activity
According to a new study, ninth-graders who complete the eight-lesson abstinence-education course known as Sexual Risk Avoidance are one-and-a-half times more likely to delay having sex during their teen years, OneNewsNow.com reports. The study comes at a "crucial" time when several states are revisiting their sex-education laws, says Valerie Huber of the National Abstinence Education Association. "I am really hopeful that policy-makers ... at the federal level, the state level and in communities across the country will take the results of this study very seriously when they're deciding what kind of sex-education programs to implement," Huber said. Those who oppose abstinence-centered education "can no longer say it does not work," she said.
Game Show Will Test Bible Knowledge
The Game Show Network has signed on comedian Jeff Foxworthy to host a new game show, "The American Bible Challenge," which will test contestants' knowledge of the Bible, the Christian Post reports. Contestants will share their life stories, and each team will compete for a faith-based organization. Questions will be designed to "acknowledge and celebrate the Bible's continuing importance in contemporary life and culture," according to a news release. "I am excited to be hosting a show about the bestselling book of all time," said Foxworthy, who has also hosted the Fox quiz show "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?" He added, "It will be interesting to find out what people really know, and an opportunity to present the Bible in a fun and entertaining way."

I would contact the lender and tell them to get the info updated and if that doesn't work, dispute it with the credit bureaus.
1501 People Helped
Only use the dispute as a last resort though, because the lender could get mad and just delete the whole account from your credit reports and you do NOT want that to happen. I guess, just be patient and give the lender a polite call if the account is not updated soon

Princess Cadance Plush by siriaslyWatch
©2013-2017 siriasly
I've been working on this project for what seems like forever and I'm so pleased with how she turned out She stands 16" not including her horn or crown and has removable satin hoof guards. Necklace and crown are sewn in place because they looked better and I figured it would be less easy to lose them that way. Her wings are fitted with foam so they're posable without any wires poking you.
Minky fabric, machine embroidered details using Sulky rayon thread.
Thanks for looking! ^__^

May I ask how you did the mane?
I can't get my head around it!
Nice work!
I can't get my head around it!
Nice work!
Thank you! ^_^ The mane I did using the satin stitch to get the multi-colored effect. Once the three colors were stitched together on one piece, I sew the two pieces together as if they were two regular pieces of fabric.
Hope that helps!
Hope that helps!
Are you also still making Princess Cadance plushies?

Are you still making Fluttershy plushies?

Is there a pattern somewhere? I'll buy it.

Soo excited for my first MLP custom plush! Soo happy I was able to win her on eBay! Thank you!
Yay I'm excited for you! She's much purdier in person - sending you shipping info via email in the afternoon

Oh, she's beautiful!

"Hello friends - We have not been able to fly, it rains, rains and rains. But there's a Spanish saying: There is no harm that for good does not come ... and I have been looking for models for OZ. This one should not be left alone in the memory of the Spanish model aircraft of the sixties. Beatles, Beach Boys, Petula, Cilla, Elvis and others helped us sanding and building them. So here it is with plan and everything. Un saludo, Antonio"

Did we get something wrong with this plan? That happens sometimes. Help us make a correction
* Credit field
The Credit field in the Outerzone database is designed to recognise and credit the hard work done in scanning and digitally cleaning these vintage and old timer model aircraft plans to get them into a usable format. Currently, it is also used to credit people simply for uploading the plan to a forum on the internet. Which is not quite the same thing. This will change soon. Probably.
This model plan (like all plans on Outerzone) is supposedly scaled correctly and supposedly will print out nicely at the right size. But that doesn't always happen. If you are about to start building a model plane using this free plan, you are strongly advised to check the scaling very, very carefully before cutting any balsa wood.

Working with Christy and Kyle most certainly did not feel like work. These two are such kind and humble people, and all of our interactions were a pleasure. We had a rainy day engagement session in the spring, but the weather was considerably more favorable for their wedding day.
As usual, Wild Orchid and the Sawridge did an amazing job of their services. It was my first opportunity to photograph inside St Mary & St George Anglican Church, and the beautiful building was the perfect place for Christy and Kyle to say their vows. Kyle had his brother and close friends by his side, and Christy had her sister and closest friends on hers. The pews were lined with smiling faces of friends and family, and those smiles only grew larger throughout the night.

Ok, so you know those advertisements that pop up at the top of the JM site? This one just caught my eye... it said 'pregnant and spitting?'
Portable Spittoon - Spitting Can for Pregnant Women (Black): Amazon.co.uk: Kitchen & Home
What??? I am quite baffled. I have never felt the need to spit my whole way through four and a half pregnancies lol. Is this a common thing? So common that you would actually need to carry a portable spitoon? And I don't even want to think about emptying it when you got home lol!

Hey everyone, I saw alot of weight loss topics springing up lately and decided to write up alot of the basics for those just getting started and why I use Hoodia Gordonii Plus. I've been overweight all my life, and have weighed at my max around 300lbs. I've done alot of research into losing weight and thought I would write this to help anyone I can. I'm just starting my journey aswell, but I'm down to 270 and am happy with my progress(my old tight jeans are now pullovers.) I'm willing to answer anyones questions that I can with or help them find the answer. Hope you all enjoy! I also recommend o anyone, especially their forums and articles. I am not a nutritionist, personal trainer, or even a doctor, so if any of this information is wrong or you have something better or different to add please do!
Cutting calories
First thing is to figure out what your BMR is, BMR stands for Basal metabolic Rate, which essentially means how many calories you would burn if you literally did nothing all day long and stayed in bed. And then once you figure out your BMR you should multiply your BMR by the appropriate activity factor. This will give you your maintenance calories. To lose, eat 15%-20% less. It can be deadly to go under 1000 calories, a minimum amount should be around 1500-1800. Learn more about Hoodie Gordonii Plus | DietCruncher.com
– Little or no exercise: 1.2
– Light exercise/sports 1-3 days a week: 1.375
– Moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days a week: 1.5
– Hard exercise/sports 6-7 days a week: 1.65
– Extra active training 2x per day, extremely physical job etc. :1.8
Eating Right
Grill, bake, roast, broil or boil your food don't fry it!
And breakfast still is the most important meal of the day
You should also spread your meals out throughout the day, eat every 2-3 hours.
One great thing is to drink water in between bites of food, and take your time, many people over eat because they eat until they are not hungry anymore, but don't give the body enough time to tell you if it needs more food or not.Every meal should consist of protein, fat, and good carbs. Some good foods are…Lean proteins: Boneless, skinless chicken or turkey; egg whites; tofu; protein powder; ostrich; buffalo; top round beef (aka London Broil); canned tuna; fish and shellfish (including fatty fish like salmon, catfish and mackerel); cottage cheese; yogurt
Starchy carbs: Oats; brown rice; quinoa; sweet potato; beans (kidney, black, pinto, northern, white, etc.); legumes (lentils); Ezekiel/sprouted bread; whole wheat pasta; whole grain bread (in moderation – very processed)
Fibrous carbs: Pretty much any vegetable, especially green ones. Broccoli, spinach, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, artichokes, escarole, kale, green beans, zucchini, squash, mushrooms, tomatoes, lettuces
Healthy fats: Seeds (esp. ground flax), extra virgin olive oil, salmon and other fatty fish, nuts and nut butters (walnuts and almonds are great), avocado
Fruits: Strawberries, blueberries, cantaloupe, apples, pears
Things to stick away from would obviously be pop, candy bars, white bread, candies, eating out, frozen foods that you throw in for fast food(burritos, tv dinners, pizzas, ect), and I'm sure everyone has enough common sense to know what is good for them or more.

Trade and craft associations have flourished all over Europe for many centuries, but the City of London companies, now collectively known as the Livery, are unique in their survival, number and diversity. The social and economic conditions which gave birth to the original guilds have long since been overtaken by the development of industry and commerce, but the livery companies still flourish today as living institutions. Their survival has been achieved by doing what they have always done: fostering their trade in a wide context, serving the community, and embracing modern skills and professions. Today there are 110 livery companies in the City of London.An order of precedence was established in 1515 according to company wealth. To settle a dispute the Skinners and Merchant Taylors take positions six and seven on alternate years (hence the expression 'being at sizes and sevens'). Some companies such as the Goldsmiths, Fishmongers, Saddlers and Gunmakers are still active in their trade. Others such as the Horners and Fan Makers have changed to modern equivalents (plastics & air-conditioning) whilst many have lost their trade.
The demand for pattens died out at the end of the 19th century, when roads and pavements were much more commonly surfaced. Hence the Pattenmakers represented a lost trade and needed to reinvent itself. It did so by continuing a strong membership of leading figures from the shoe trade and by encouraging the development of the trade through the awards for young managers and grants to students learning the design and manufacturing skills required. More recently, it has found a new and unique niche amongst the livery companies by supporting in many ways the production of orthopaedic shoes for those, particularly in the armed services, who have had severe leg and foot injuries.
It is not certain whether in the past the Pattenmakers Company had its own Livery Hall. Over the centuries many Livery Halls have disappeared. Some were sold when money was short, some closed when the original companies were disbanded or absorbed into others and some have been destroyed - many in the Great Fire of London in 1666. Without our own Hall, we have had the opportunity to make use of the many very fine Halls of our fellow Livery Companies within the City of London.
See www.cityoflondon.gov.uk for more details.See www.london-footprints.co.uk for contact information on Livery Companies and Halls

solipsistic NATION No. 242: alka, merohedra, Alexei Borisov and 80(sun), Live
It's such a beautiful day here in San Diego that I decided to get out of the studio and record today's introduction with you from my roof deck. There's a light breeze and from where I'm standing I can see the Pacific Ocean. I wish you were here to see it with me. After living in Boston, San Diego feels like a slice of paradise.
Today's show is going to be a bit different. Instead of featuring one or two live performances and an interview, I present to you four, count 'em, four live sets for your enjoyment!
During the last year or so I've been accumulating some recordings of live performances that on clock in at around 15 or 20 minutes. I've just been waiting until I had enough of these shorter sets to combine them into one show. Obviously, we've reached that point so let me tell you what you'll hear on today's live extravaganza.
First up, we'll hear a live set from alka. I believe this set was recorded at the GATE in Philadelphia a year or two ago. Special thanks goes to Bryan Michael for providing me with alka's live set.
Next, we'll hear a live set from merohedra performing at Openmind stage back in 2010 at the Psycrowdelica Festival in Germany. merohedra is part of the Bak$hish Music collective and you can hear more music from the Bakshish Music on November 14th edition of solipsistic NATION.
From merohedra we'll move on to Alexei Borisov show at Yaroslavl way back in 2003. I don't know much about Alexei Borisov but I do know he's somehow affiliated with Marcos Fenrandes of Accretions and that's all the credentials I need (check out my interview with Marcos here).
We're going to close today's show with a live set from 80(sun). 80(sun) is the solo recording project of Jonathan Scherk. I'm not sure where this was recorded at except that it was recorded at a now closed art gallery to a room of dubstep punks. That's all I know.
Speaking of live, I want to thank Daysha out in Texas for turning me on to Calvertron, Figure, Turbo Teen, Aversion and DJ Monkey who performed at the World Beat Center last night here in San Diego. Daysha is not only super nice but she's also super talented and produces and promotes bass music.
Join us again next week when we'll showcase Waveform Records, who are one of my favorite labels that also happen to be based here in San Diego. See you then!
- alka "Live, GATE in Philadelphia"
- merohedra "Live, Openmind stage at the Psycrowdelica Festival"
- Alexei Borisov "Live, Yaroslavl"
- 80(sun) "Live"

wrong, no need to be jealous of someone who has the ability to make inanimate objects talk, should make a game of chess very interesting. To the OP, look around see if other people in your new college/neighbourhood have other abilities.

Students with a degree in psychology can find career opportunities working in schools, corporations, or in the social services sector. Many psychology grads work in the field of mental health, under the supervision of a clinical psychologist or psychiatrist. Psycho-analysis is based on changing problematic behaviors, feelings, and thoughts by discovering their unconscious meanings and motivations. By comparison, Jungian therapy focuses on the collective unconscious, dream archetypes, and symbolic representation. In dysfunctional families, children must learn to cope with unbearable situations, and often develop classical psychological symptoms. Therapists in turn will attempt to identify destructive behavior and emotions, and select suitable therapy.
In brief therapy as outlined by Milton Erickson, the therapist treats clinical and subjective conditions faster by precise observation, and direct intervention. Rather than a prolonged analysis of historical causes, the primary approach of brief therapy is to help the client become more versatile in the present, prompting successful clients to undergo spontaneous changes. Behavioral Therapy, on the other hand, addresses both normal and abnormal behaviors. Desensitizing is classical conditioning in action, where a therapist might help a client with a phobia through repeated exposure to the causal agent. Operant conditioning is more direct, relying on rewards and punishments to shape behavior. Beyond consideration for Georgia Regents University psychology faculty, you may think about Siena Heights University academic schedule for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Adult Educational Attainment
current and past adult educational attainment levels for adults ages 25+
Related indicators:
school readiness, student achievement, college completion
Adult educational attainment is defined as the highest level of education completed by adults ages 25 and over.
Why does adult educational attainment matter?
Almost every smaller industrial city grapples with the challenge of raising the college attainment of its population. Indeed, it is well-documented that higher levels of education correspond with higher earnings, offering these residents an important chance to escape poverty. Another reason driving cities to address education is the need to better attract outside investment from the kind of knowledge sector industries that are driving Massachusetts' economic growth.
There is also a compelling data that shows how college attainment translates to greater prosperity not only for the individual, but also for the broader community:
- Based on data from the country's largest metropolitan areas, there is a strong positive correlation between four-year attainment and per capita income. In fact, 58% of a city's success as measured by per capita income can be attributed to its college attainment rate.[1]
- Each percentage point increase in adult four-year educational attainment is associated with a $763 increase in a region's per capita income.[2]
- As the share of adults with a Bachelor's degree increases by 10%, worker wages in the region rise by 8% at every education level and per capita gross metropolitan product rises by 22%.[3]
- For low-income individuals, post-secondary education is the gateway to the middle class: in 2007, 61% of middle class workers had pursued higher education, up from 26% in 1970.[4]
How do we measure adult educational attainment?
The PPC measures educational attainment by using US Census data regarding the highest level of education completed by adults ages 25+.
How is Fall River doing?
- Current level of educational attainment:
- Percent of adults without a high school degree: 28.6%
- Percent of adults with only a high school degree or GED: 33.2%
- Percent of adults with some college, but no degree: 16.2%
- Percent of adults with a Bachelor's degree or higher: 13.8%
Notably, 24.5 percent of Fall River adults have taken important steps toward earning a Bachelor's degree by earning some college credits (8.3 percent have an Associate's degree). Programs or policies supporting college completion could be particularly valuable in supporting the efforts of this group—one fourth of the city's adult population—to earn a Bachelor's degree.
2. Educational attainment over time
As the figure above demonstrates, educational attainment in Fall River continues to improve since the 2000 Census.
How is New Bedford doing?
- Current level of educational attainment:
- Percent of adults without a high school degree: 28.5%
- Percent of adults with only a high school degree or GED: 32.0%
- Percent of adults with some college, but no degree: 17.0%
- Percent of adults with a Bachelor's degree or higher: 19.5%
Notably, 19.5 percent of New Bedford adults have taken important steps toward earning a Bachelor's degree by earning some college credits (over 6.6 percent have an Associate's degree). Programs or policies supporting college completion could be particularly valuable in supporting the efforts of this group—one fourth of the city's adult population—to earn a Bachelor's degree.
2. Educational attainment over time
As the figure above demonstrates, educational attainment in New Bedford has improved since the 2000 Census.
What's being done to address adult educational attainment, and where can I learn more?
Though the case for increasing the number of city residents with college degrees appears quite clear, there is limited consensus on the best way to accomplish that goal. Some communities focus on using the high school curriculum to ensure that more students are college-ready, while others have begun making major investments in early childhood education. Yet while many strategies being employed are evidence-based, the younger the target age group, the longer it will take to see gains in college attainment.
This is why a growing number of cities are shifting their attention to college completion. After all, over 70% of high school graduates in the US pursue some form of post-secondary education, but just over half are emerging with a four-year degree.[5] Here's a sampling of what's being done to address this shortfall throughout the country:
City-based programs
- CEOs for Cities has created the Talent Dividend Network, a group of 23 US cities that meet to exchange strategies and ideas for boosting college attainment rates
- Graduate! Philadelphia provides guidance and support to adults who want to return to college
- The Boston Opportunity Agenda has set a goal of having 70% of Boston Public Schools graduates earn an associate's degree or higher, and they're providing transitional supports to help make that happen
- The Memphis Talent Dividend seeks to increase the number of college graduates by 1% by using a collaborative, community-based approach
State-level efforts
- Complete College America works with states like Massachusetts to aggregate data and help drive planning and policy to support college completion
- Tennessee passed the Complete College Tennessee Act in 2010 to ensure that college completion rates in that state will match the national average by 2025. The act also links economic development and higher education to emphasize the relationship between the two.
- West Virginia created its DegreeNow program to help adults return to post-secondary education through its network of community colleges
- SUNY WORKS in New York is using its network of state universities to increase college graduation rates and promote STEM employment through a co-op program
National programs and policies
- The Lumina Foundation has established the Adult College Completion Network to share data and best practices for advancing educational attainment among adults who have already earned some college credits
- The Obama administration has targeted college completion with a goal of raising the number of college graduates in the country by 10 million
- Project Win-Win is a program of the Institute for Higher Education Policy that works with 64 two- and four-year colleges to identify former students who have earned enough credits for an associate's degree or who need just a few additional credits to complete a degree program; these schools have identified over 44,000 students who stand to benefit.
